years as a caregiver to Italian kids and elderly,but in order to stay shes had to prove her language skills by taking a test which requires her to write a postcard to an imaginary friend and answer a fictional job ad.Italy is the latest Western European country trying to control a growing immigrant(移民) population by demanding language skills in exchange for work permits,or in some cases,citizenship.Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs,such measures will become a more vehicle for intolerance than integration(融合).Others say its only natural that newcomers learn the language of their host nation,seeing it as a condition to ensure they can contribute to society.Other European countries laid down a similar requirement for immigrants,and some terms are even tougher.The governments argue that this will help foreigners better join the society and promote understanding across cultures.Italy,which has a much weaker tradition of immigration,has witnessed a sharp increase in immigration in recent years.In 1990,immigrants numbered some 1.14 million out of Italys then 56.7 million people,or about 2 percent.At the start of this year,foreigners living in Italy amounted to 4.56 million of a total population of 60.6 million,or 7.5 percent,with immigrants children accounting for an ever larger percentage of births in Italy.Cojochru,the Moldovan caregiver,hoped obtaining permanent residence(居住权) would help her bring her two children to Italy;they live with her sister in Moldova,where salaries are among the lowest in Europe.She was skeptical that the language requirement would encourage integration.Italians always “see me as a foreigner,” an outsider,even though shes stayed in the country for years and can speak the local language fluently,she said.【语篇导读】本文报道了意大利最近采取的一项限制移民的措施,即要求移民通过一项语言考试来获得工作条件甚至居民身份。1.Why does Cojochru have to take a language test?A.To continue to stay in Italy.B.To teach her children Italian.C.To find a better job in Italy.D.To better mix with the Italians.答案A解析细节理解题。根据第一段中的“.in order to stay shes had to prove her language skills by taking a test.” 可知她参加考试的原因是证明自己的语言技能从而能继续留在意大利,故A项正确。2.Some people worry that the new language requirement may .A.reduce Italys population quicklyB.cause conflicts among peopleC.lead to financial difficultiesD.put pressure on schools答案B解析推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Some immigrant advocates worry that as hard financial times make it more difficult for natives to keep jobs,such measures will become more a vehicle for intolerance than integration.”可知,糟糕的经济状况已经让本土人很难保住工作,而这样一项措施使得移民压力变大,可能会导致排外而不是融合,故B项正确。3.What do we know about Cojochru?A.She lives with her sister now in Italy.B.She enjoys learning the Italian language.C.She speaks Italian well enough for her job.D.She wishes to go back to her home country.答案C解析推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“.shes stayed in the country for years and can speak the local language fluently.”可知,她能熟练地讲意大利语,故C项正确。B项在文中未提到;A、D两项和文章倒数第二段内容矛盾。导学号29402038BGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since.A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water.He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away.He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son.A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle,twinkle,little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning,which can be stated as follows:Once we have learned something,additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming,bicycle riding,and playing baseball long after we have learned them.We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle,twinkle,little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks and the Three Bears.We not only learn but overlearn.The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school,because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination,though it may result in a passing grade,is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course.By cramming,a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination,but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned.A little overlearning,on the other hand,is really necessary for ones future development.【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了成年人对小时候学会的东西会记忆犹新,这是之前重复学习、过度学习的结果。作者认为重复学习、过度学习有其一定的优点。4.What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A.People remember well what they learned in childhood.B.Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C.Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D.Stories for children are easy to remember.答案A解析主旨大意题。根据文章第一段第一句“Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since.”可知,第一段讲的是人们对小时候学会的东西记得很好,尽管从那以后再也没有练习过。故选A项。B项“孩子比成年人的记忆力好”,C项“读诗是学单词的好方法”和D项“儿童故事容易记住”在文中均没有提及。5.The author explains the law of overlearning by . A.presenting research findingsB.setting down general rulesC.making a comparisonD.using examples答案D解析推理判断题。根据文章第二、三段可知,作者是在结合具体的例子来阐述自己的观点。故选D项。A项“展示调查结果”,B项“制定通用规则”和C项“作比较”在文中均没有表现出来。6.According to the author,being able to use multiplication tables is .A.a result of overlearningB.a special case of crammingC.a skill to deal with math problemsD.a basic step towards advanced studies答案A解析细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“.because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.”可知,能够使用乘法口诀表是童年时期过度学习的结果。故选A项。B项“一个突击学习的特例”,C项“一项处理数学问题的技能”和D项“一个迈向高等教育的基本步骤”在文中均没有提及。7.What is the authors opinion on cramming?A.It leads to failure in college exams.B.Its helpful only in a limited way.C.Its possible to result in poor memory.D.It increases students learning interest.答案B解析推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第二句“By cramming,a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination,but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned.”可知,突击学习或许会使学生把一门课程学得足以通过考试,但是他很快就会忘记几乎全部的所学内容,因此突击学习的作用是有限的。故选B项。由文章最后一段第一、二句可知,突击学习会让学生通过考试,故A项“它导致大学考试不及格”错误,C项“它可能导致记忆力不好”和D项“它会提高学生的学习兴趣”在文中均没有提及。导学号29402039.七选五How opening doors changed this teens lifeBullying(欺负) is a serious problem.According to Family First Aid,nearly 30 percent of teens in the U.S.are involved in school bullying,whether theyre being bullied or doing the bullying.Josh Yandt,who lives in Ontario,was no exception.And after being bullied for years,he decided to make one simple change when he changed schools:1.“The first few weeks when I started doing it they were kind of shocked,” he explains in a video for WestJets Above & Beyond,a series that shares the stories of inspirational Canadians.“Not many people hold doors,right?But after that,people started to open up to me.2. Its also about putting yourself out there,getting to know people,making them feel comfortable,making them feel welcome.3.”Holding the door for his classmates changed everything for Yandt,and now he has more friends than he can count.“People just love what I do.Every day people always say thank you,people smile,and its really great,”he told Canadas CBC News as the classmates clapped him on the back,said thanks,or gave a hello as they passed by in the hallway.4. Yandt has taken on speaking engagements(演讲),sharing his story with younger students.“I never thought he would be a public speaker because he used to be so shy,”his mom said.“5.”A.The story doesnt end there.B.He was bullied by the older boys at school.C.Opening a door is more than a physical act.D.He started opening doors for his classmates.E.It is difficult for him to deliver a public speech.F.But he took to public speaking like a duck to water.G.Opening doors gives people hope and shows people care.答案与解析【语篇导读】本文是记叙文。一个男孩帮同学开门给自己的生活带来了巨大的改变。1.D由下文的“Not many people hold doors,right?”可知,Yandt做出的改变就是帮同学们开门。2.CC项与下文的“Its also about.”相呼应。3.GG项与上文的“putting yourself out there,getting to know people,making them feel comfortable,making them feel welcome”相呼应,都是讲为同学开门的好处。4.A上文讲述了Yandt为同学们开门使得同学关系变得和谐融洽;下文讲述了为同学们开门还使他学会了公开演讲。故此处应是过渡句A项。5.FF项与上文的“I never thought he would be a public speaker because he used to be so shy”形成对比,突出小小的开门之举却给Yandt带来了巨大的改变。导学号29402040.语法填空(2018吉林长春一模)Jin Hanmiao,a first grader from China,received a reply letter from Buckingham Palace 1.(recent) after writing to introduce the China-Britain express railway service.The letter is based 2. the 19-day journey of the first China-U.K.freight(货运)train.3.(see) the news of its return to Yiwu,Jins mother encouraged him to write about it and then send the letter to Queen Elizabeth .In his letter,Jin introduced 4.(he) and Yiwu,as well as his hope 5. the Queen would appreciate 6.(tradition) Chinese culture.He also expressed his interest in the U.K.,after mentioning some British famous persons and places including Isaac Newton,Charles Darwin,and the British Museum.He then sent his letter to the Queen.Jins mother helped translate the letter into English,and sent both the original letter and the translation to London on May 8.Two months 7.(late),a reply from
