7.Busy as I am every day,I always open my computer and check my email.Most of the time I am simply doing finger exercises,another form of piano practice without beautiful tones.Sometimes,however,I receive a gift,reminding me of the gifts in my life.The following passage is one of those gifts.
Peter Jones is a 92-year-old,short,calm and proud man.Every morning he is fully dressed by eight o'clock,with his hair fashionably combed and face perfectly shaved even though he is unable to see anything.He would move to a nursing home today.His wife of 70 years old has recently passed away,making the move necessary.
After hours of waiting patiently in the entrance hall of the nursing home,he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready.As he moved his walking stick skillfully to the elevator,the nurse provided a visual description of his tiny room."I love it,"he stated with enthusiasm."Mr.Jones,you haven't been the room,"said the nurse.
"That doesn't have anything to do with it,"he replied."Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time.Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged…it's how I arrange my mind.I have already decided to love it. It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up.I have a choice:I can spend the day in bed complaining of the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work,or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do."
Each day is a gift,and as long as we are alive.We'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories we've stored just as Mr.Jones does.

分析 本文通過(guò)瓊斯先生對(duì)待生活的樂(lè)觀態(tài)度告訴我們每一天都是上帝給我們的禮物,只要我們還活著,我們將專注于新的一天,和我們存儲(chǔ)的所有美好的回憶,就像瓊斯先生所做的一樣,我們都要樂(lè)觀對(duì)待.

解答 46.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第二段的前兩句"Peter Jones is a 92-year-old,short,calm and proud man.Every morning he is fully dressed by eight o'clock,with his hair fashionably combed and face perfectly shaved even though he is unable to see anything."可知他的穿著很整潔,但是眼睛已經(jīng)看不見(jiàn)了.故A正確.
47.D 推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章第3段的第2、3兩句"As he moved his walking stick skillfully to the elevator,the nurse provided a visual description of his tiny room."I love it,"he stated with enthusiasm."可知他很喜歡養(yǎng)老院給他提供的房間,說(shuō)明他是很滿意的.故D正確.
48.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章第4段的"Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged…it's how I arrange my mind.I have already decided to love it."可知這里的it就是指前面一句中的my room.瓊斯在來(lái)之前就做出了決定要真正的喜歡這個(gè)房間.故B正確.
49.A 主旨大意題.根據(jù)文章主題段最后一段"Each day is a gift,and as long as we are alive.We'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories we've stored just as Mr.Jones does"可知本文通過(guò)瓊斯先生對(duì)待生活的樂(lè)觀態(tài)度告訴我們每一天都是上帝給我們的禮物,我們都要樂(lè)觀對(duì)待.故A正確.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 人生感悟類的文章就是指能給人心靈以啟迪,使人從中受到教育的文章.這類文章的體裁可以是記敘文,還可能是夾敘夾議的哲理散文或生活隨筆.文章的結(jié)構(gòu)和議論文類似,一般是總分總或總分結(jié)構(gòu).每段首句或尾句為主題句(論點(diǎn)),其它句子圍繞主題展開(kāi)論述(論據(jù)),論證方法多種多樣,或舉例,或引用名言,或正反對(duì)照等.閱讀全文的結(jié)尾段或結(jié)尾句,有助于理解文章所闡述或蘊(yùn)含的哲理、感悟或忠告等.

19.In many parts of the world,cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them.So the idea that in 20years'time,no one will own cars may be hard to believe.But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously,not only by government but also by car manufacturers.
The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the UK is part of an international research program.The team there believes that by 2020all cars will be computerized,which will mean much saving,no accidents and better use of roads.The super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself,and it will not be owned by one individual.Instead,we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing.
According to Dr.David Davis,who leads the research team,these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture,which has blocked up our cities,polluted our air,and caused more deaths than both world wars put together.
Davis says,cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices to regulate the distance between one car and another.The car will automatically speed up,or slow down,to match the speed of the car in front.Computers are much safer drivers than people,so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people.
By 2010,Dr.David Davis believes,car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road,whatever the weather conditions,by projecting an image of the road ahead on to the car's windscreen.And by 2020,cars will travel in convoy,linked to each other electronically.Cars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form"road-trains"."The front vehicle in such a train burns the normal amount."saysDavis."But all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount,and so produce about ten percent of the pollution."

61.We know from the passage that governments and car manufacturersC.
A.do not believe the prediction that no one will own cars by 2020
B.a(chǎn)re devoted to the technological revolution in car industry
C.consider the predictions seriously
D.have put the super-intelligent car into mass production

A.The car will speed up out of control.
B.We will own as many cars as we want.
C.All cars will be driven by computers.
D.Cars will produce more pollution than present ones.
63.The leader of the research team believes that the present car culture should change becauseD.
A.cars play a very important role in daily life
B.many societies would stop functioning without cars
C.cars should not be owned by one individual
D.it causes many deaths to human society
64.The expression closest in meaning to the phrase"in convoy"in the last paragraph isA.
A.in line        B.sidealong     C.side by side      D.shoulder to shoulder
65.What will happen if cars are joined to each other electronically in 2020?C
A.Motorists will get a clear view of the road.
B.The weather condition will not have effect on motorists.
C.There will be less pollution caused by car.
D.All trains will burn less fuel than present.
