work harder than ever. i continued working as a waitress at night, instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons. i even decided to take a class at a community (社区) college. this class at the community college saved me $650. it was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the university.during my second and third years of undergraduate schooling, i decided to work about five hours per week in the campus (校园) admissions office answering phones. this provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings out. i wanted to go to israel to study for 3 weeks, but i hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1,600 more to get the credits in israel. about two weeks later my mom called to tell me that i had $1,600 in the bank that i had forgotten about! one of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost, but the loss of time to make money; however, i made as much that summer in the ten weeks when i was at home as i had made during the fourteen weeks when i was at home the summer before. the way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.this experience has shaped me in many important ways. the first thing that i learned was the importance of a strong work ethic (伦理). working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar. it also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.文章大意：在上大学期间，作者充分利用课余时间从事一些兼职工作，获得了不错的收入，更重要的是，这种工作经历使作者认识到了工作伦理的重要性，并且也学会了如何应对困难局面。1where did the writer probably work parttime before attending the university?ain a restaurant.bin the

turns 50 on friday, jan. 17, 2014.michelle obama has spent the first half-century of her life breaking barriers and checking off a series of firsts. now, as she reaches her milestone birthday friday, the nation will be watching to see in what other areas she will leave her mark. five years after moving into the white house, and without a re-election campaign to worry about, she has more room to relax in her role and, political watchers say, possibly become more vocal (声音的) on political issues in the three years left in office. so far, critics have complained about michelles silence on issues where they expected to hear her voice: last year, at the start of her husbands second term, she disappointed advocates for tighter gun-control measures after she failed to push harder on the issue in response to the massacre (残杀) at sandy hook elementary school in newtown, conn. she also disappointed some feminists (女权主义者) who wanted her to defend their causes instead of falling back on her self-described role as the nations “mom-in-chief.” nor did she handle racial issues during her second term, as some had expected.“the most important thing to remember is, whether you are black, white or hispanic, youre the first lady and the president of all the people in the united states. thats a huge melting pot, so to reinforce (强化)that shes african american over anything else would not be wise,” said anita mcbride, who directs programming and national conferences on the legacies (遗产) of americas first ladies and their historical influence at american university. valerie jarrett, a top white house adviser and a close friend of the obamas, said the first lady doesnt want to “spread herself too thin.” “she really wants to have a maximum impact and to do that in fewer areas,” jarrett told the associated press. “that, she said, “is better than trying to take on every single possible cause.”but robert watson, a lynn university professor, said he expects obama to “go a little harder at issues” over the next several years. “second-term first ladies usually feel more at ease to speak more forcefully about issues close to their heart,” he said. myra gutin, a ryder university communications professor and frequent lecturer on first ladies, said she expects obama to continue making both of them a priority in her remaining years in the white house, given their success. michelle launched the “lets move” campaign in 2010. it in particular has gained widespread support, ranging from the national football league to the sesame street franchise (特许), which even gave permission to the produce industry to use its licensed characters for free on fruits and vegetables. “theres no such thing as a traditional first lady, not anymore in this technology-filled world. is mrs. obama cutting edge? is she an activist? no. as first ladies go, i think shes been politically careful because she does not want there to be a major flare-up that would require her husband to use his political capital to clean up,” she said. “but shes not exactly just sitting in the white house pouring tea and having receptions, either.”1、critics were disappointed with michelle because _.ashe

to reach it, i could only listen to my mother talk on it.i discovered that inside the wonderful box lived an amazing person whose name was information please. there was nothing she did not know. one day my mother went out. i accidentally hurt my finger when i was playing with a hammer. i walked around the house sucking my hurting finger, finally seeing the telephone. quickly i dragged a chair over and climbed up.“information please,” i spoke into the receiver. a click or two and a small clear voice spoke into my ear, “information.” “i hurt my finger” i cried into the phone. “isnt your mother home?” came the question. “nobodys home but me.” i sobbed. “are you bleeding?” the voice asked. “no,” i replied. “i hit my finger with the hammer and it hurts.” “can you open your icebox?” she asked. i said i could. “then take a little piece of ice and hold it to your finger.” said the voice.after that, i called “information please” for everything. i asked her for help with my geography and she told me where philadelphia was. she helped me with my math. she told me her name was sally.then there was the time my pet canary (金丝雀) died. i called “information please” and told sally the sad story. “why is it that birds sing so beautifully and bring joy to all families, only to end up as a pile of feathers?” she listened, then said quietly, “paul, always remember that there are other worlds to sing in.” somehow i felt better.one day when i called “information please” again, a different voice answered “information.”i asked for sally. “are you a friend?” she said.“yes.” i answered“im sorry to have to tell you this,” she said. “she died five days ago.” before i could hang up she said, “wait a minute. did you say your name was paul?”“yes!” “well, sally left a message for you. the note said, “tell him i still say there are other worlds to sing in. hell know what i mean.” i thanked her and hung up. i knew what sally meant.21. when the author hurt his finger, he rang

box【答案】21a22c23b24d【解析】试题分析：本文讲述了电话接线员sally和“我”之间的深厚友谊。在我无助的时候，我总是向她求助她帮助了我很多。甚至在她去世以后，仍然不忘给我留言安慰我不要太难过。21. a 推理判断题。根据文章第二段i discovered that inside the wonderful box lived an amazing person whose name was information please. there was nothing she did not know. 可知作者发现在盒子里有一个名叫information please的人，她似乎什么事情都知道。所以在我受伤以后，我才会想起去打电话向“她”求助。故a正确。22. c 推理判断题。根据第六段：“i hurt my finger” i cried into the phone. “isnt your mother home?” came the question. “nobodys home but me.” i sobbed. “are you bleeding?” the voice asked. “no,” i replied. “i hit my finger with the hammer and it hurts.” “can you open your icebox?” she asked. i said i could. “then take a little piece of ice and hold it to your finger.” said the voice.从他们之间的对话内容可知sally很耐心地指导“我”如何处理自己的伤口。说明她是一个很体贴细致的人。abd三项从文章中都看不到证据。故c正确。23. b 推理判断题。根据倒数第八段she listened, then said quietly, “paul, always remember that there are other worlds to sing in.” somehow i felt better.这是当“我”的金丝雀死掉的时候sally安慰我的话。金丝雀在另外一个世界去唱歌了。后来她给我的留言中也使用了这句话，同样也是在安慰我，不希望我太难受。故b正确。【名师点睛】本文属于主旨大意题中的标题概括题，一直以来都是得分率较低的一种题型。我们可以使用选帽原则来选择最好的标题。 标题可以是单词、短语，也可以是句子，它高度概括了文章内容，点明文章主题，它是文章中心思想最精练的表达形式。那如何选择文章的标题呢？如同选择文章的主题思想一样，标题要有概括性、全面性、针对性。标题要避免概括不够，即以部分代整体，或以事实细节代替具体的大意；也要避免概括过度，即脱离了文本内容的过度发挥，导致标题范围太大，缺乏针对性。像帽子一样，大小合适才行。另外，标题要简洁、突出、新颖。标题是文章的点睛之笔，所以它还要具有醒目的特点，能吸引读者。本文的标题d“my magic box”醒目能吸引读者的注意力。让人联想，这是一个什么样的盒子，会继续向下阅读。达到了标题的设题目的。考点：考查记叙文阅读【黑龙江省哈尔滨师大附中、东北师大附中、辽宁省实验中学2016届三高第一次三校联合模拟】tu youyou has become the first chinese woman to win a nobel prize, for her work in helping to create an anti-malaria(疟疾) medicine. the 84-year-olds route to the honour has been anything but traditional. in china, she is being called the three nos winner: no medical degree, no doctorate, and shes never worked overseas.in 1967, malaria, a then deadly disease, spread by mosquitoes was decimating chinese soldiers fighting americans in the jungles of northern vietnam. a secret research unit “mission 523 “was formed to find a cure for the illness. two years later, tu youyou was instructed to become the new head of “mission 523”. “mission523” read ancient books carefully for a long time to find historical methods of fighting malaria. when she started her search for an anti-malarial drug, more than 240,000 compounds(化合物) around the world had already been tested, without any success. finally, the team found a brief reference to one substance, sweet wormwood（青蒿）, which had been used to treat malaria in china around 400 ad. the team took out one active compound in wormwood, and then tested it. but nothing was effective until tu youyou returned to the original ancient text. after another careful reading, she changed the drug recipe one final time, heating the compound without allowing it to reach boiling point.after the drug showed promising results in mice and monkeys, tu youyou volunteered to be the first human recipient of the new drug. “in any case, tu youyou is consistently praised for her drive and passion. one former colleague. lianda li, says ms tu is “unsociable and quite straightforward”, adding that “if she disagrees with something, she will say it.” another colleague, fuming liao, who has worked with tu youyou for more than 40 years, describes her as a “tough and stubborn woman”. stubborn enough to spend decades piecing together ancient texts, she applies them to modern scientific practice
