Even if we hadnt needed the extra money Dad and I brought in, I wouldnt have traded those weekends for all the picnics or Little League games in St.Louis not in a million years.【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。讲述了大萧条时期，为贴补家用，父子两人每周六去旧货市场淘下旧物，修补之后再次售卖来赚钱。21Dads good idea was _.Agetting a second job for a whileBhaving his son get an afterschool jobCsaving money by buying only used itemsDbuying things and fixing them up for resale答案与解析：D推理判断题。由第一段“One day, he had an excellent idea that set me on a lifelong course of making money to support myself.”和倒数第二段“The next Saturday we headed off, as we did every weekend, to that same market, where we sold the treasures wed purchased the week before at a tidy profit”可知，父亲想到的好主意是到旧货市场买下东西，把它们修理好再出售，故选D。22Why did the author want to buy the old sewing machine?AHe wanted to change it into an electric machine.BHe thought it was like his Moms machine.CHe thought it was of good quality.DHe wanted to practice his repair skills.答案与解析：C细节理解题。“It was much older than Moms machine, but it looked like it had quality and a long life built into it.”作者发现一台老式缝纫机，虽然很旧，但看起来质量很好，很耐用，故选C。23We can infer that the author thanks his father most for _.Aletting him shop at marketsBhelping him choose treasuresCallowing him to keep money by himselfDteaching him a lesson of selfsupport答案与解析：D推理判断题。根据第一段“One day, he had an excellent idea that set me on a lifelong course of making money to support myself.”和最后一段第一句“Dads gone now, but I can never thank him enough.”可以推断出作者非常感谢父亲，是父亲教会了他自立，故选D。24What would be the best title for the text?AWeekends at the Secondhand Goods MarketBAn Expensive Sewing MachineCAn Accident DiscoveryDJobs During the Economic Depression答案与解析：A主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文作者回忆了大萧条时期，为贴补家用，父子两人每周六去旧货市场淘下旧物，修补之后再次售卖来赚钱的经历，并且感激父亲教会了他如何自立。因此推断A项为最佳标题，故选A。BSixteen years ago, I learned an important life lesson in the back of a New York City taxi.I was on my way to Grand Central Station, and we were driving in the right lane when a black car suddenly sped out of a parking space right in front of us.My driver hit the brakes hard, skidded, and missed the other car by a few inches. The driver of the other car, the man who had just nearly caused a huge accident, started shouting at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at him. He was really friendly! “Why did you just do that？” I asked him. “This guy almost destroyed your car and could have sent us to the hospital！”This was when my taxi driver told me what I now call “the Law of Garbage Trucks” “Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of anger, and full of disappointment，” he said. “As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it, and if you let them do, theyll dump it on you. So when someone wants to dump on you, just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Youll be happier because of what you have done.”I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and dump it on other peopleat work, at home, or on the street? It was on that day that I said, “Im not going to dump anymore.”【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文，讲述的是一个出租车司机用微笑避免了一场风波的故事，作者也因此受到了深刻的启发当不愉快的事发生的时候，微笑！25What happened when the writer was taking a taxi?AHe saw a car accident.BSomeone destroyed the taxi.CThe taxi driver was injured.DAnother car almost hit the taxi.答案与解析：D根据文章第三段“The driver of the other car, the man who had just nearly caused a huge accident, started shouting at us.”可知，另外一辆车几乎撞到了出租车。26How did the taxi driver deal with the other drivers behavior?AHe shouted back at the driver.BHe sent the driver to the hospital.CHe was friendly towards the driver.DHe dumped some garbage in front of his car.答案与解析：C根据文章第三段“My taxi driver just smiled and waved at him.

But in the earthquake capitals of the world Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey rats will soon be mans best friends.What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they cant get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rats brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rats brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Christian Linster at Cornell University, New York, says, “Robots noses dont work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark. They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they dont need electricity!The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “It would be fantastic. A rat could get into spaces we couldnt get to, and a rat would get out if it wasnt safe. ”Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course)【语篇解读】人人痛恨的老鼠不久将在地震后的救援中成为人们的好朋友。29In the world earthquake capitals, rats will become mans best friends because they can _.Atake the place of mans rescue jobsBfind the position of people alive who are trapped in buildingsCserve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildingsDget into small spaces答案与解析：B推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容可知，人们利用老鼠来搜寻地震中的被困人员，因此答案为B项。30From the third paragraph we know the rescuers can judge a person who is alive by _.Athe noise made by the ratBthe rats unusual behaviourCthe signal sent by the radio on the rats backDthe smell given off by the person答案与解析：C细节理解题。根据第三段中的“When this happens, the rats brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals.”可知答案为C项。31Rats have all the following advantages EXCEPT that _.Athey are more fantastic than other animalsBthey are less expensive to train than dogsCthey dont need electricityDthey are small and can get into small places答案与解析：A细节理解题。文章第一句提到“Everybody hates rats.”，由此可知，人们并不喜欢老鼠。32After reading the passage we know _.Aat present rats have taken the place of dogs in searching for peopleBthe “rat project” has been completedCpeople are now happy to see a rat in a buildingDnow people still use dogs and robots in performing rescues答案与解析：D推理判断题。由文章最后一段中的“The rat project is not finished.”可知A、B两项错误；由文章最后一句可排除C项。DEcocamp JuniorAge：69 years oldLocation：High ParkDates & Themes：Critters & Crawlies July 25 and July 29August 2Nature Arts July 812 and August 69Veggie & Ventures July 1519 and August 1216Habitat Detectives July 2226 and August 1923Description: This is an active funfilled camp for kids that love the outdoors.
