No one could name themselves when they were born. That is,    has his or her name given by others. So we needn’t care too much about our names, which are just     . They are used to refer to you. Though your parents probably meant your name to last a lifetime, never forget that the hopes and dreams they cared for may not      your needs. If your name no longer seems to fit you, don’t lose heart. Screen stars      change their names, and with some determination, you can, too.
Legal rules are more     in this matter than you may expect. Many newlyweds,     , realize that no law requires a woman to      her husband’s name. Even more, parents can give their children any name they wish,      it’s not that of either parent.
If you do wish to have a new name, you don’t need to make the change     . Under common law,      is necessary to start using the name of your choice. More importantly, you     to use it everywhere.    , you must change all your identification and     . Be sure to practice your new      until you write it naturally and     .
Making friends and fellow workers      you Leach instead of Lola may be harder than any paperwork involved, and you are      to meet official resistance, too. Whatever happens, be sure that no law should      you from using the name you have chosen,      you use it for the purpose of cheating. Please enjoy your right to be called by      name you choose!

試題分析:如果不喜歡父母給你取的名字該怎么辦呢?在本文中作者給了你很滿意的答復(fù),那就是你可以隨意的改名字。法律允許你改名字,允許你取任何名字,只要你的名字不是用來進(jìn)行欺騙的。而且你所要做的就是更改一些檔案記錄,并且開始使用你的新名字,以及練好你的簽名而已。
小題1:B不定代詞辨析。A.沒人;B.每個(gè)人;C.所有人;D.某人。從上句可知此處泛指所有人的名字都是別人給起的,故排除A、D選項(xiàng)。再根據(jù)主謂一致的原則可知B為正確選項(xiàng)。
小題2:A名詞辨析。A符號(hào);B.禮物;C.紀(jì)念品;D. 樣品。從語境可知人們不要太在意名字,它只是個(gè)代替人的符號(hào)而已,所以A選項(xiàng)正確。
小題3:C動(dòng)詞辨析。A.知道;B.信任;C.使。。。滿足或滿意;D.同意。從下文可以判斷C選項(xiàng)符合語境,父母給你取得名字可能不符合你的愿望,需要。satisfy one’s need“滿足需求”故C項(xiàng)正確。
小題4:A副詞辨析。A.定期地,經(jīng)常地;B.合法地;C.幾乎不;D.勇敢地。從下文with some determination, you can, too.可知屏幕影星是經(jīng)常更換名字。故選A。
小題5:D形容詞辨析。A穩(wěn)固的;B.有價(jià)值的;C.實(shí)踐的;D靈活的。根據(jù)下文可知法律在更改名字方面沒有人們想象的嚴(yán)格,是比較靈活的,所以此處填D。
小題6:C介詞短語辨析。A.事實(shí)上;B.結(jié)果,因此;C.例如;D.表面上。上文講人們?cè)詾楦拿謺?huì)很難,但是當(dāng)真正去做的時(shí)候卻發(fā)現(xiàn)其實(shí)很簡(jiǎn)單,此處是舉例說明法律在關(guān)于名字方面是很寬松的,故C選項(xiàng)正確。
小題7:A動(dòng)詞辨析。A.承擔(dān)(責(zé)任);B.對(duì)付; C 稱呼;D. 得到。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知有的地方婦女結(jié)婚后要改為丈夫的姓氏,所以此處填A(yù),意思是“沒有法律規(guī)定婦女要遵照丈夫的姓氏”。
小題8:C短語辨析。A.仿佛;B 只要;C即使;D.要是。。就好了。上句“父母可以隨意給孩子取名字”和后面句子“孩子的名字可以不遵照父母任何一方的姓氏”兩句話之間是一種遞進(jìn)的假設(shè)關(guān)系,由此可知C選項(xiàng)正確。
小題9:B形容詞辨析。A.流行的;B.官方的,正式的;C.知道的;D學(xué)術(shù)的。從下文Under common law,is necessary to start using the name of your choice可知改名字沒必要弄的很正式,只要在某些法律規(guī)定下開始使用即可。所以B選項(xiàng)正確。
小題10:C代詞辨析。A.什么;B那;C.它;D.哪個(gè)。從句法結(jié)構(gòu)可知此處的真正主語是to start using the name of your choice,it做形式主語。句型是it is necessary to do sth。所以C項(xiàng)正確。
小題11:B動(dòng)詞短語辨析。A.被用;B.應(yīng)該;C.   被希望;D.期望。從上文可知此處是強(qiáng)調(diào)要使用新名字的必要性和重要性,所以B項(xiàng)符合語境。
小題12:B副詞辨析。A.代替;B.此外;C.幸運(yùn)地;D否則。從上下文可知you must change all your identification和前面內(nèi)容是遞進(jìn)關(guān)系,所以B選項(xiàng)正確。
小題13:C名詞辨析。A.價(jià)值;B.筆記;C.記錄;D.描述。根據(jù)and可知此空和前面identification應(yīng)該同樣是有關(guān)人身份名字的詞,所以C選項(xiàng)正確。句意:此外,你必須要改變你所有的證件和檔案記錄。
小題14:A名詞辨析。A.簽名;B.書法;C.需要;D發(fā)音。根據(jù)上文以及后句until you wirte it naturally可知此處是指人的簽名,所以A項(xiàng)正確。
小題15:A副詞辨析。A連續(xù)地,.一貫地;B.固定地;C.漂亮地;D.有吸引力地。從詞語搭配上可知描述一個(gè)人寫字要用自然流暢等詞語,所以判斷A選項(xiàng)正確。
小題16:B考查非謂語。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知此處是make sb do sth “讓某人做某事”短語,故B項(xiàng)正確。
小題17:D形容詞辨析。A.可能的;B.不可能的;C.   方便的;D.可能的。從詞的用法判斷四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有l(wèi)ikely的主語可以用sb,句型為 sb is likely to do sth“某人有可能做某事”。D選項(xiàng)正確。
小題18:C動(dòng)詞辨析。A.許可進(jìn)入;B.容忍;C.禁止D. 允許。從上文可知法律允許你有使用任何名字的權(quán)利,換句話也就是說沒有法律禁止你使用你選擇的名字,故C選項(xiàng)正確。
小題19:A連詞辨析。A.除非;B.何時(shí);C.如果;D.因?yàn)。從語境可知此處是指一種例外情況,如果你利用名字去欺詐那是法律不允許的,所以A選項(xiàng)正確。
小題20:D引導(dǎo)詞辨析。A.誰的;B.不管什么;C.哪;個(gè)D.無論什么。由語法結(jié)構(gòu)可知by后面是賓語從句,故排除B選項(xiàng),而A、C選項(xiàng)不合語境,所以選D。句意:請(qǐng)享受你的權(quán)利把,想叫什么名字就叫什么名字。

Poor weather. Technical difficulties. These are some of the typical causes of cancelled trains and planes. But sometimes, the excuse can be a lot more trivial.
Just recently, passengers waiting for a train to Peterborough heard the following announcement, “For reasons beyond our control, we regret to inform passengers that the 13:46 Train to Peterborough has been cancelled. The next train will be arriving on Platform in approximately 36 minutes.”
Oh, well, another delayed train, thought most passengers. But a couple of them decided to enquire further. Incredibly, they were informed that the real reason for the non-arrival of the train was that the driver refused to do his job because his seat was wet.
“A wet seat? That’s got to be a joke,” said one passenger angrily. “I wouldn’t normally complain if the train is just a bit delayed, but this was unbelievable, ” he added. “What really made me angry is that this driver refused to get in the train,” said another passenger. “He probably went off for a cup of tea after that!” she added.
A spokesperson for the rail company apologized for the incident, but said the driver couldn’t sit on the damp seat, and wouldn’t be able to drive the train standing up. The spokesperson went on to explain that the seat had become wet after water entered through an open window when the train was being cleaned in a “train wash”
In another transport-related incident, a flight from Chicago to Frankfurt made an emergency landing in Canada after the pilot spilled his coffee. Apparently, the spilt liquid caused the plane’s radio to send out “transponder code 7500”, which is used to inform ground control that there’s been a hi-jacking (劫機(jī)). After landing in Toronto, the 255 passengers crew members were put up in a hotel for the night, then flown on to Frankfurt the following afternoon. “What a disgusting trip!” said one tired passenger after the painful experience had ended.
So, does your job have the potential to cause such disorder?
小題1:Why did the driver of the train refused to do his job?
A.His seat was damp.B.His pay was low
C.The weather was terribleD.His coffee was spilled
小題2:The underlined word “trivial” in Paragraph 1 means “____”.
A.dampB.unimportantC.emergentD.convincing
小題3:The flight made an emergency landing in Canada because “_______”.
A.the plane was hijacked
B.the plane engines went wrong
C.the pilot ran out of coffee
D.the plane’s radio sent out a wrong signal
小題4:Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A.Wet seat, Canceled Train!
B.Spilled Coffee, Emergency Landing!
C.Small Incident, Big Disruptions!
D.Innocent Driver, Angry Passengers!

What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice-cream taster?
Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice cream. Just ask John Harrison an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers (制造商) to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream—as well as for developing over 75 flavors (口味).
Some people think that it would be easy to do this job; after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No—there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field.
In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12℉. Harrison explains: “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir (攪拌) it, creating ice-cream soup.”
While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Dose the product have the color expected from that flavor?” Next it’s time to taste!
Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy---working at one cool job.
小題1: What is John Harrison’s job?
A.An official.B.An ice-cream taster.
C.A chemist.D.An ice-cream manufacturer.
小題2:According to John Harrison, to be qualified(合格的) in the “cool field”, it is helpful to ________.
A.keep a diary of work
B.have a degree in related subjects
C.have new ideas every day
D.find out new flavor each day
小題3: What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream?
A.He stirs the ice cream.
B.He examines the color of the ice cream.
C.He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.
D.He lets the ice cream warm up.
小題4:Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?
A.Tasting with EyesB.Flavors of Ice Cream
C.John Harrison’s LifeD.One Cool Job

On the first day of your Senior High you must meet many new classmates. Do you want to make friends with them? Do you know how to make friends with them? The following article will tell you how to do it.
Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, it improves      practice. If you want to meet people and make friends you must be      to take action. You must first go to places where there are people. You won’t make friends      at home alone. Join a club or group, for talking with those who      the same experience as you is easier, and      them in some activities.
Many people are      when talking to strangers. After all, meeting strangers means facing     , and it’s human nature to      a bit uncomfortable about the unknown.
Most of our fears about dealing with strange people      from doubts about ourselves. We      other people are judging us, thinking us too tall or too short, too this or too that.     , don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself      you are, and try to put the other person at ease. You’ll      feel more comfortable.
Try to act self-confidently      you don’t feel that way      you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk straight, look      at other people and smile. If you see someone you’d like to     , say something. Don’t wait for the other people to      a conversation.
Just meeting someone      doesn’t mean that you will make friends with that person. Friendship is      on mutual(相互的)liking and “give and take”. It takes time and effort to develop. And there are things that keep a new friendship from growing.

Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear. Children know this very well. Fred Epstein, in his book I Make It to Five, tells a story he heard from one of his friends about Tom, a four-year-old boy with a cancer in his back bone. He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination.
Tom loved to pretend, and he particularly loved to play superheroes. Dr. Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.
The day before his third trip to the operating room, Tom was terribly afraid. “Maybe I could go as Superman,” he whispered to his mom. Hearing this, the mother hesitated for a while. She has avoided buying the expensive costume(戲裝), but finally she agreed.
The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman, showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to the people greeting him along the way. And Tom, with the strength of his fantasy, successfully made it through the operation.
The power of imagination need not be reserved for children only. We all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things we never thought possible, to go through those things that seem impossible, and to achieve what we never believed we could. Just as Dr. Epstein puts it, “If you can dream it, you can do it.”
It doesn’t mean that you should dress as a superhero for your next job interview. But, next time you are tested in a way that seems impossible, imagine what it would take to overcome it. Become the person you need to become to win over your challenge and do it in your mind first. So, let your imagination run wild, and dare to dream.
小題1:What do we know about Tom?
A.He was seriously ill.
B.He was a dishonest boy.
C.He was crazy about magic.
D.He was Dr. Epstein’s patient.
小題2:What can be inferred about Tom’s mother?
A.She was a rich lady.
B.She refused Tom’s request.
C.She wanted Tom to be a superhero.
D.She wanted to get Tom through the pain.
小題3:When Tom went for the third operation, he_________.
A.pretended to be painfulB.a(chǎn)cted like a superhero
C.a(chǎn)ppeared in poor spiritsD.a(chǎn)rgued with his mother
小題4:In the last paragraph, you are advised________.
A.to go through some difficult tests
B.to wake up from your wild dreams
C.to become a powerful person in your mind
D.to wear expensive clothes for job interviews

Your peers are people your age or close to it who have experiences and interests similar to yours. You and your friends make dozens of decisions every day, and you influence each other’s choices and behavior. This is often ________ --- it’s human nature to listen to and learn from other people in your age group.
Sometimes, though, the stresses in your life can actually come from your peers. They may pressure you into doing something you’re uncomfortable with, such as shoplifting, doing drugs or drinking, or taking dangerous risks when driving a car.
The pressure to conform(隨潮流) can be powerful and hard to resist. A person might feel pressure to do something just because others are doing it. Peer pressure can influence a person to do something that is relatively harmless--- or something that has more serious consequences.
People may feel pressure to conform, so they fit in or are accepted, or so they don’t feel awkward or uncomfortable. When people are unsure of what to do in a social situation, they naturally look to others for cues(暗示)about what is and isn’t acceptable.
The people who are most easily influenced will follow someone else’s lead first. Then others may go along, too --- so it can be easy to think, “It must be OK. Everyone else is doing it. They must know what they’re doing.” Before you know it, many people are going along with the crowd --- perhaps on something they might not otherwise do.
Responding to peer pressure is part of human nature --- but some people are more likely to give in, and others are better able to resist and stand their ground.
It’s not always easy to resist negative peer pressure. But when you do, it is easy to feel good about it afterwards. And you may even be a positive influence on your peers who feel the same way --- often it just takes one person to speak out or take a different action to change a situation.
小題1:Which of the following is a kind of peer pressure?
A.Your teachers give you a lot of homework.
B.Your parents expect high scores from you.
C.Your classmates persuade you to cut class.
D.Your relatives invite you to attend a party.
小題2:Which is most likely to be filled in the blank in Paragraph 1?
A.negative
B.impossible
C.positive
D.uncertain
小題3:Most people tend to do what others are doing in order to _________.
A.feel a sense of achievement
B.get a feeling of being accepted
C.set a good example for others
D.stand out in a crowd
小題4:What can we know according to the author?
A.Giving in to peer pressure is unavoidable.
B.Peer pressure usually leads to serious results.
C.Going along with the crowd usually means making a right choice.
D.Everyone can make a difference by resisting negative peer pressure.
小題5:This passage is mainly about _______.
A.thoughts on peer pressure
B.different types of peer pressure
C.ways to deal with peer pressure
D.the influence of peer pressure on people

You’re finishing up your history homework when your cell phone rings. You’ve got 30 minutes to reach head-quarters, get your equipment packed and receive your task. There’s a lost hiker in the mountains near the edge of town. Your task: find the missing person; provide emergency medical treatment, if necessary; and be prepared to operate 48 hours on your own with only the supplies you carry.
Sounds like some kind of film’s plot? Not if you’re a member of the Arapahoe teen rescue patrol in the suburbs of Denver. About 25 teen guys and girls are active members of this search, rescue and emergency organization, and they know firsthand that you don’t have to be an adult to save lives.
These 9th-through-12th graders are the real deal when it comes to emergency services. In fact, they’re the only teen-commanded patrol in the nation. Sure they have adult advisers to turn to if necessary, but in the field it’s a teen patrol officer calling the shots — sometimes even giving direction to adults.
Members are trained in rock-high-angle,swift-water and avalanche rescue (雪崩施行營(yíng)救), winter and alpine operation , wilderness life support and emergency care, among other skills. They also regularly ride along with the local fire and police departments, providing support such as security details and evidence searching.
When asked what qualities make a good patrol member, founder and president Stan Bush named good physical conditioning and an interest in helping people. “We put in lots and lots of hours helping people in trouble,” he says. “So if a person is not really interested in doing that kind of thing, he won’t last as a member.”
小題1:In the first paragraph, the author describes ______.
A.a(chǎn) plot in some kind of filmB.a(chǎn) teen patrol member’s life
C.a(chǎn)n emergency rescueD.a(chǎn) lost hiker in trouble
小題2:Which of the following is NOT true about the Arapahoe teen rescue patrol?
A.They are trained to have many special skills.
B.They also work with local firemen and policemen.
C.They turn to adults for help sometimes.
D.They think they can save lives only when growing up.
小題3:If you want to become a good rescue patrol member, you must ______.
A.be strong and interested in offering help
B.be a 9th-through-12th grader
C.finish your history homework first
D.spend many hours helping people first
小題4:What would be the best title for the passage?

Spring is here and so is the cycling season. Here are some tips on how to do it safely and comfortably.
Watch your feet—Pushing with the wrong part of the foot can raise your risk of developing a painful injury of the heel and arch(腳心), says Rob Werstine, a sports physiotherapist(理療師)and board member of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association.  You should push with the ball of your foot, he says.
Layer up—While it’s still cool, wear layers of clothing, with clothing close to the body that breathes and outer layers that do not absorb water. Go for bright colors that increase your visibility(可見度).
Be reasonable—If you are just starting out and aren’t in good shape, don’t sign up for a 50-kilometre ride. And while cycling is great exercise for people who want to get into shape, if your doctor advises you not to do tiring exercise, cycling shouldn't be your starting position, Werstine says. Walk to begin getting into shape and then graduate to cycling.                           
Fix the fit—If you develop lower back pain or numbness in your hands and fingers from cycling, it could be your bike isn’t adjusted properly for your height. A good cycle shop can help you find the right height for the seat and handlebars, but if you have continuing problems, consider consulting a bike fit physiotherapist, Werstine says.
Be mindful—You have to pay attention on the roads to vehicles, other cyclists and pedestrians(行人).Consider taking a cycling safety course to practise your skills. Or do some reading about how to avoid dangerous cycling situations. bicyclesafe.com, for instance, lists 10 types of car-bike accidents and how to avoid them.
