Most of the kids swim there, and there are plenty of rocks for them to use as safe harbors, so I had no fears for his safety.Still, the firefighters first words “You need to come up here to the Stillwater River” made me catch my breath, and his followup words gave me relief：“Your son is OK.”When I got to the river, I immediately saw the fire truck, ambulance and Anton, wrapped with a towel about his shoulders, sitting quietly on a low platform of the fire engine.I hurried over to him. “You OK？” I asked.“Yeah，” was all he said. But my eyes begged for an explanation. I didnt get it from my son, however, who_tended_to_play _his_cards_close_to_his_vest.The story was this: A woman was being swept under water. Hearing the cries, Anton and his friend Tyler, without hesitation， swam out to her, and brought her safely to shore.In an age in which the word “hero” is broadcast with abandon and seemingly applied to anyone who make it through the day, I realized the real thing in my son. The teens are stubborn and selfcentred, but that doesnt mean they have no desire to do good.Still shocked by my sons daring, I drove him home. Along the way, I tried to dig out some more information from himbut he had precious little to say. The only words he said were “Whats for supper？”I spent some time alone that evening, thinking about the tragedy that might have been. The next morning, when Anton got up, I half wanted him to tell me the story. But all he did was toast some bread, pull himself together, and head for the door to start a new day. Watching from the window, I was reminded that still water often runs deep.篇章导读：本文讲述的是作者的儿子救了一位落水妇女的故事。作者一直想知道事情发生的经过，但未得到儿子的回答，从而使作者想到“静水流深”的道理。1Why did the mother allow her son to swim there?AHe was an excellent swimmer.BThe water of the river is shallow.CHe was old enough to swim.DThe rocks can be of help if theres danger.答案：D细节理解题。根据第一段中第二句“Most of the kids swim there, and there are plenty of rocks for them to use as safe harbors, .”可知，答案为D。2The underlined part “who tended to play his cards close to his vest” probably means _.AAnton is a boy fond of swimming with other kidsBAnton is unwilling to tell others what he thinksCAnton always has a desire to help othersDAnton seldom changes his mind答案：B词义猜测题。根据画线句子前半句以及过渡词however可以推断，作者的儿子安东不愿意讲述他的感受。3In the mothers eyes, what her son did was _.Adangerous but interestingBmeaningful but difficultCunexpected and courageousDawful and absurd答案：C推理判断题。综合全文信息，这位母亲不断问及事情发生的经过可知，母亲很担心儿子出危险，另外，从儿子的作为也可以看出儿子的英勇。故选C。4What might be the best title for the passage?AMy Son, My Hero B Anton, A Silent BoyCA Good Deed D A Proud Mother答案：A主旨大意题。结合全文可知，这位母亲为自己有这样的儿子感到自豪。故选A。1relief n. 减轻；安慰 2.wrap vt. 包裹；缠绕3explanation n. 解释 4.broadcast v. 广播；播放5precious adj. 宝贵的1without hesitation 毫不犹豫地 2.dig out 挖掘BThe story of how coffee growing and drinking spread around the world is one of the greatest and most romantic in history. It starts in the Horn of Africa, in Ethiopia, where the coffee tree probably originated in the province of Kaffa (喀法). There are various fanciful but unlikely stories surrounding the discovery of coffee beans. One story has it that an Ethiopian goatherd (牧羊人) was amazed at the lively behavior of his goats after they chewed red coffee berries. What we know with more certainty is that the succulent (多汁的) outer cherry flesh was eaten by slaves taken from present day Sudan into Yemen and Arabia, through the great port of its day, Mocha, now synonymous (同义的) with coffee. Coffee was certainly being cultivated in Yemen by the 15th century and probably much earlier than that.Mocha was also the main port for the one sea route to Mecca, and was the busiest place in the world at the time. But the Arabs had a strict policy not to export any fertile beans, so that coffee could not be cultivated anywhere else. The coffee bean is the seed of the coffee tree, but when stripped of its outer layers it becomes infertile. The race to make off with (夺走) some live coffee trees or beans was eventually won by the Dutch in 1616.Initially， the authorities in Yemen actively encouraged coffee drinking as it was considered preferable to the extreme side effects of Kat (the Arabic tea), a shrub whose buds and leaves were chewed as a stimulant (提神物). The first coffeehouses were opened in Mecca and were called “kaveh kanes”. They quickly spread throughout the Arab world and became successful places where chess was played, gossip was exchanged, and singing, dancing and music were enjoyed. They were luxuriously decorated and each had an individual character. Nothing quite like the coffeehouse had existed before: a place where society and business could be conducted in comfortable surroundings and where anyone could go, for the price of coffee.The Arabian coffeehouses soon became centres of political activity and were suppressed. Coffee and coffeehouses were subsequently banned several times over the next few decades， but they kept reappearing. Eventually a solution was found when coffeehouses and coffee were taxed.Nowadays, this new found “coffee culture” has started to spread to the rest of the world. To those countries with great coffee traditions of their own， such as Italy, Germany, and Scandinavia, new converts were introduced to the pleasures of good coffee. Today it is possible to find good coffee in every major city of the world, from London to Sydney to Tokyo; tomorrow the world will drink more and more importantly, better coffee.篇章导读：咖啡的种植和饮用在全世界广泛流传的经历可以说是历史上最神奇、最浪漫的故事之一。本文向我们介绍了咖啡的起源及发展。5The legend mainly tells us _.Awhen coffee was found B where coffee was foundChow coffee is planted D what coffee is used for答案：B主旨大意题。通读全文我们所获得的最多信息是咖啡起源于哪里，因此答案为B。6Mocha, a name of coffee, was originally _.Aa person who found coffeeBthe name of a great portCa plant of red berriesDthe place where coffee was found答案：B细节理解题。根据第二段第一句中的“Mocha was also the main port for the one sea route to Mecca”可知，穆哈在当时是一个港口的名字。7Why were the people in Yemen encouraged to drink coffee?ABecause coffee can help people keep energy.BBecause people preferred coffee to Kat.CBecause Kats leaves were not easily chewed.DBecause Kat was not so healthy as coffee.答案：D细节理解题。从文章第三段第一句中的“as it was considered preferable to the extreme side effects of Kat(因为人们认为咖啡相比Kat强烈的副作用来说要好得多)”可知，Kat虽可提神但是有副作用。8Which of the following is NOT the reason why coffeehouses were popular?
