a pizza.Im comfortable traveling through a country where I dont speak the language,but I would almost rather go hungry than sit in a restaurant eating alone.After wandering around the town for another half an hour,I finally chose an Italian restaurant that seemed friendly enough.I know I should have gone for more traditional German food,but the idea of a plate of Italian noodles for only six euros was too much to pass up.So I nervously entered.As I stood there,I noticed all the happy families and friends eating together.The hostess found a small table for me next to the front entrance.“Great,”I thought,“now people can look at this friendless traveler as they enter.”Then I started to wonder how many of the customers might mistake me for the hostess and how much this would interrupt(打断) my meal.Then a woman,whose name is now lost to memory,invited me to have dinner with her and her family.I couldnt believe it!This was the German friendliness I had read about.I walked to their table.I can be quite shy when talking to new people.I also started to wonder how this would work.Do I have to talk to them the whole time?Do they even know English?The meal began awkwardly.The womans two children mostly stared at me.Fortunately the parents spoke enough English and I knew a little German.I came into this restaurant afraid of eating alone and I ended up conquering my shyness.Separate bills came for each of us;we paid and went our own ways.The family probably ended up discussing their day while I just walked back to my hotel with a smile on my face.21.The author chose an Italian restaurant instead of a German one probably because .A.the author didnt like German foodB.the food in the Italian restaurant was cheapC.the Italian restaurant was popular in the townD.the German restaurants in the town were closed答案:B解析:推理判断题。根据第二段的“I know I should have gone for more traditional German food,but the idea of a plate of Italian noodles for only six euros was too much to pass up.”可知仅仅6欧元的意大利面条对作者来说还是比较有吸引力的。22.When invited to have dinner with the family,the author was .A.happyB.angryC.disappointedD.surprised答案:D解析:推理判断题。根据第三段的“I couldnt believe it!This was the German friendliness I had read about.”可知答案。23.We can conclude from the passage that the author .A.couldnt speak any GermanB.was outgoing and enjoyed talking to peopleC.didnt like to travel in a foreign countryD.had an enjoyable dinner with the family答案:D解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“.I just walked back to my hotel with a smile on my face.”可知答案。24.Whats the authors purpose of writing the passage?A.To share her experience in Germany.B.To encourage readers to travel in Germany.C.To explain why Germans are friendly.D.To express thanks to the German family.答案:A解析:作者意图题。本文的目的是和大家分享作者在德国旅游时的经历。B导学号06944006Death Valley is the lowest,hottest,driest area in North America.This California National Park has less than 5 cm of rainfall a year and temperature up to 53 in summer.Thats enough to keep Americans away during the hottest months from June to August.But it is the high temperature and terrible heat that draw the most crazy fans,the foreign tourists.From all over the world,they come to the valley floor in cars,carrying maps and water bottles,and fanning themselves with newspapers to keep cool.About 1.3 million visitors enter the park each year,from June to August.90% of them are foreigners.They go there to experience the summer heat that gives Death Valley its name.The average high in July is 53.2 and the low 30.For August,the average high is 52.2 and the low 29.4.So what do Americans think of the foreign visitors who arrive for the heat,just when locals from the United States try to avoid it?Park manager Brenda Henson says,“The foreigners want to experience the heat in Death Valley.We think its crazy.”In fact,Death Valley is a series of salt flats(盐滩) 225 km long and 6 km to 26 km wide.Birds and animals are largely absent,and only the hardiest plants have any chance of existence in this extreme place.One tourist from Paris concluded,“We come to it because we can tell all our friends and family that weve been to the hottest place in the world.”25.The real attraction of Death Valley for foreigners is that .A.summer heat keeps Americans awayB.experiencing the heat in it is coolC.it is a series of salt flatsD.it is the hottest place in the world答案:D解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段的内容看出很多外国人来死谷是因为这里是世界上最热的地方。26.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.The hottest time in Death Valley is from June to August.B.Not all the visitors to Death Valley are foreigners.C.The lowest temperature in Death Valley is 29.4.D.Death Valley is made up of salt flats.答案:C解析:细节理解题。第二段说到八月份平均低温为29.4,但这并不表明死谷最低温度为29.4,因此,C项与原文内容不符。27.What does the underlined word “hardiest” in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Most difficult.B.Most energetic.C.Strongest.D.Best.答案:C解析:词义猜测题。根据上下文语境,死谷没有鸟兽的踪迹,只有一些植物可能在这样的恶劣环境下生存,可推知hardiest意为“最强壮的”。28.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Crazy Fans of Death ValleyB.Importance of Death ValleyC.Beauty of California National ParkD.The Best Tourist Attraction in North America答案:A解析:主旨大意题。纵观全文,文章主要介绍了每年大量的游客都会去参观世界上最炎热的地方死谷,A项紧扣中心,概括全面。CSweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy.It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick,the aged,and children who have lost their parents,but also friends,workmates,relatives and neighbors whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.Over 60 years ago,when a Cleveland man noticed that some people,such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed,too often felt forgotten and neglected,he developed in his mind the idea of showing them that they were remembered.He did this by giving them small gifts.With the help of his friends and neighbors,he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October.During the years that followed,other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration,which came to be called “Sweetest Day”.Over time,the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor,the sick and the children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone,and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift.Soon the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.Sweetest Day is not based on any single groups religious(宗教的) beliefs or on a family relationship.It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift-giving,Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care,in a positive(积极的) way.29.What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.Sweetest Day is a day to make others happy.B.Sweetest Day is just an occasion to care about disabled people.C.Sweetest Day is an occasion for lovers to express love.D.Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Sunday in October.答案:A解析:细节理解题。由第一段第一句可知,Sweetest Day就是让他人高兴的一天。30.Which of the following has little relationship to Sweetest Day?A.Visiting sick people in hospital.B.Visiting the children who have lost their parents.C.Giving friends small gifts.D.Giving flowers to sweethearts.答案:D解析:推理判断题。由整篇文章的叙述可知,在Sweetest Day这一天,人们要记住病人、老人、孤儿、朋友、同事、家人和邻居,因此A、B、C三项的叙述符合文意,而D项(给爱人送花)并没有提及。31.What is Cleveland?A.An island.B.A country.C.A village in England.D.A city in America.答案:D解析:推理判断题。第二段第一句提到了“a Cleveland man”,第二段最后一句提到了“.the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.”,由此推出克里夫兰(Cleveland)是美国的一个城市。DFebruary has long been a month of romance.With the sweet smell of roses in the air,romantic films hit cinemas and love stories fill newspapers and magazines.On the 14th day,it is a custom for a boy to take his girlfriend out to dinner,buy her flowers and chocolates,write poems,sing to her or even spell out her name with rose petals!This is what you see on Valentines Day,a day named after Valentine who was a priest in the third century Rome.When the emperor(皇帝)decided that single men could become better soldiers than those with wives,he didnt allow marriage.But Valentine continued to perform marriage ceremonies for young lovers in secret.When his actions were discovered,the emperor sentenced him to death.While in prison,it is said that Valentine fell in love with the daughter of his prison guard.Before his death,he wrote her a letter,which he signed “From your Valentine”,an expression that is still in use today.Valentine died for what he believed in and so he was made a saint(圣徒),as well as becoming one of historys most romantic characters.Nowadays,Valentines Day is also popular among Chinese young people.Some students are planning to make Valentines cards for parents,teachers and friends.Others want to hold parties at which they will exchange small gifts and eat heart-shaped cakes.The idea is to have fun and encourage people to share in the spirit of St.Valentine.32.Why did the emperor in Rome not allow marriage in his country?A.Because there were few women in his country at that time.B.Because he thought men without wives could be better soldiers.C.Because there wasnt enough food for so many people.D.Because he wanted to control the birth rate.答案:B解析:细节理解题。由第二段最后一句可知,皇帝认为与已婚男子相比,单身男子能成为更好的士兵,因此他禁止结婚。33.Valentine was put into prison because .A.he killed one of the soldiersB.he stole a lot of foodC.he didnt obey the emperors orderD.he didnt want to be a soldier答案:C解析:细节理解题。由第二段最后一句可知,皇帝不允许结婚;由第三段第一、二句可知,瓦伦丁仍为年轻人主婚,因此皇帝判他死刑。34.The last paragraph mainly tells us .A.students in China send cards to their teachersB.it is a good idea to celebrate Valentines Day in ChinaC.it is interesting to celebrate Valentines Day in ChinaD.Valentines Day is also popular in China now答案:D解析:主旨大意题。最后一段第一句“Nowadays,Valentines Day is also popular among Chinese young people.”就是该段的主题句,即情人节在中国也开始受欢迎起来。35.The best title for this passage should be .A.Valentines DayB.A Brave PriestC.Valentines Day in ChinaD.A Romantic Man答案:A解析:主旨大意题。由整篇文章的内容可知,本文主要介绍情人节的情况。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Doctors in the United States say babies began learning on their first day of life.Research scientists at the institute note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment.They say a baby will smile if his mother does something the baby likes.36 This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings at the beginning of their life.37 They say newborn babies can recognize and understand sounds they hear while they are still developing in their mothers.The study shows that babies can learn before they are born.First of all,the researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant woman.38On the day the baby was born,the researchers attempted to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother.3940 But if the baby moved his mouth the other way,he would hear a different story.The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born.They say the baby would move his mouth so he could hear the story a
