回忆，此处指的是“回忆自己所学的东西”33.选d，trials，此处的意思是：令人伤脑筋的事。34.选c，在一个人生非常美好的阶段，后文暗示。35.选d，与cost并列选risk最好了，表示这些美好的阶段没有什么代价和和风险，一切都有父母吗。36.选d，宾语从句，根据句意和成分，应选what，和你分享一下我所学的一些知识。37.选b，就像一粒盐一样接受这些建议，盐是调味品，多少因人而异，这也顺接了下文。38.选c，有些东西对我好，但是对你却未必就合适。39.选a，定语从句，先行词是人，且从句中缺少主语，故选a。40.选b，承接上文，他们因为你与众不同，或者根据就毫无理由的嘲笑你。41.选c，承接上文，他们嘲笑你，也可能欺负你或者伤害你，bully与hurt中间选or连接。42.选b，与上文do和下午learn并列，所以选谓语动词形式。43.选c，对你好的朋友自然就是真心关系您了。44.选b，hold onto 紧紧抓住，当遇到这样的朋友的时候，一定要紧紧抓住。45.选c，你人生中会有失望的时候。生活并不总是你想要的方式。46.选a，turn out 证明是，生活并不总是你想要的方式。47.选d，接受失望，然后坚持追求梦想，尽管可能有陷阱。48选b，参照上题。49.选a。学会把消极的态度变为积极的态度，这样你在生活中就会做得更好。50.选d，让自己变得更坚强。第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 a i was blind, but i was ashamed of it if it was known. i refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. after all, i was a teenage girl, and i couldnt bear people to look at me and think i was not like them. i must have been a terrible danger on the roads, coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work. one evening, i got off the bus about halfway home where i had to change buses, and as usual i ran into something, “im awfully sorry,” i said and stepped forward only to run into it again. when it happened a third time, i realized i had been apologizing to a lamppost. this was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. so i carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldnt stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. no one else was there and i had to try to guess if the bus had arrived. generally in this situation, because i hated showing i was blind by asking for help, i tried to guess at the sound. sometimes i would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. in the end, i usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help. but on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. of course i heard plenty of buses pass, or i thought i did. but because i had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, i let them all go by. i stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. then i gave up. i decided to walk on to the next stop.51. after the girl got off the bus that evening, she_. a. began to run b. hit a person as usualc. hit a lamppost by accident d. was caught by something52. at the request stop that evening, the girl_.a. stopped a big lorry b. stopped the wrong busc .made no attempt to stop the bus d. was not noticed by other people53. what was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?a. other vehicles also stopped there.b. it was unreliable for making judgments.c. more lorries than buses responded to the girl. d. it took too much time for the girl to catch the bus.54. finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping _. a. to find people there b. to find more buses there c. to find the bus by herself there d. to find people more helpful there解析：51.选，c 细节理解题。由第二段前三句，特别是第三句(when it happened a third time, i realized i had been apologizing to a lamppost)可知。52.选， c 细节理解题。由题干中的that evening可知，问的是“那天晚上发生的事”，即信息点应在第2和4段，因为第3段是讲通常的情况而不是当晚，所以a和b两个选项就很容易排除了。根据第2段最后一句no one else was there可知，当晚只有她一个人在那等车，都没有人在身边，怎么可能被人注意到呢？据此可排除d；根据第4段中的but because i had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, i let them all go by. i stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one.可知，特别用的是过去完成时（had given up），可见她怕拦错车，出洋相，早就放弃努力自己拦车了，因此当晚她并没有努力去拦车，因此，选项c正确。53. 选b 推理判断题。由sometimes i would stop a big lorry可知，靠声音来判断有时是靠不住的。54.选 a 推理判断题。从i had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself可知，她本人不想拦车了，又由managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help可知，她是决定找人帮忙了，而在本站没有人，去下一站当然就是希望在那里可以找到人帮忙。b i have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. as a doctor, mother and scientist in child development, i believe there is nothing to recommend it, from the babys point of view. mothers, doctors and nurse alike have no idea of where a babys blood sugar level lies. all we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily annoyed. in this state, the baby is difficult to calm down and sleep is impossible. the baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth. it is not just unkind but also dangerous to say that a four-hourly feeding schedule will make a baby satisfied. the first of the experts to advocate (提倡) a strict clock-watching schedule was dr frederic truby king, who was against feeding in the night. ive never heard anything so silly. baby feeding shouldnt follow a timetable set by the mum. what is important is feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks. well, at last we have copper-bottomed research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding. the research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7, 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. by the age of 8, their iq（智商）scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a strict timetable. this research comes from oxford and essex university using a sample（样本）of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s, taking account of parental education, family income, a childs sex and age, the mothers health and feeling style. these results dont surprise me. feeding according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels. i hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeding practices.55. the underlined word “copper-bottomed” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _.33a. basic b. reliable c. surprisingd. interesting56. what does the research tell us about feeding a baby on demand?32 a. the baby will sleep well.b. the baby will have its brain harmed. c. the baby will have a low blood sugar level.d. the baby will grow to be wiser by the age of 8.57. the author supports feeding the baby_.35 a. in the nightb. every four hoursc. whenever it wants food d. according to its blood sugar level58. which of the following sentences is true according to the passage? a. dr king advocated feeding in the night. b. dr king was against a strict clock-watching schedule. c. the author thinks dr kings idea is wrong. d. the author thinks dr kings idea is right.解析：56. c 推理判断题。由第三段第三句ive never heard anything so ridiculous ( 荒谬可笑的)以及本文最后一句可知。57. c 由本文的第一句(i have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly)就提出观点，“反对定期喂婴儿”，最后一句(i hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeding practices)希望结束主张严格按时喂养的习惯。既然“不定期”，也就是按婴儿需要喂养，故选c。58.选c，综合细节题，根据第三段第二三句话：the first of the experts to advocate (提倡) a strict clock-watching schedule was dr frederic truby king, who was against feeding in the night. ive never heard anything so silly. 作者说从
