dcommunity(一)【要点综述】作者以友善的态度真诚地对待一个外表很脏但为她开门的男人，并为他提供了一份食物和一个拥抱，由此感动了对方。文章告诉我们，尽管生活中有很多东西无法亲自选择，但是我们可以选择什么时候去表达感谢。1b通过后面and可知，只有messy合适，意为“杂乱的”。2bappearance“外表”，上文描写的是男人的外表，故选b。3dsmell意为“味道难闻”，根据语境可以选出答案。4abeyond意为“在范围外”。通过上下文可知，孩子的母亲不想让孩子以貌取人，而应该关注外表以外的东西，所以选beyond。 5bignore“故意忽视不理睬”，通过前后文可知，当人们进入饭店的时候，许多人都无视这个外表很脏的男人。6dexample“榜样”，下文有直接对应，且set an example也为常用搭配。7dtough困难的；stressful紧张的，压力重的；accessible可靠近的，可进入的；awkward尴尬的，笨拙的，别扭的。8a因为路途曲折，孩子们需要晕车药，所以作者需要去车里取药给孩子吃，所以选a。9b正在这时，这个男人为一对夫妇开门，这对夫妇快速从他身旁走过甚至都没有承认他的存在，即无视他的存在，正好与上文呼应，表明人们看都不愿意看这个男人，更不用说是礼貌友好地待他了。10c让那对夫妇先进来，然后作者向外走的时候对那个男人大声地说了声“谢谢”。11b男人说饭店不允许他进入，除非他买食物。12a“我”回来把那个男人的事情告诉了家人。deed和demand显然不对，而experience一般指过去的经历，故也不合适。故选择story。13c因为家人不知道作者为什么在他们吃饱了的情况下又加了一份汤和三明治，所以选puzzled “迷惑不解”。14dtake a trip、make a trip意为“旅行，外出”，start a trip意为“开始旅行”，因为文章开头明确说明作者和家人是在去往加利福尼亚的trip中停下来吃午饭，所以再次上路，应该选d“继续”。15a他伸出手和“我”握手，“我”感激地接受了。reach out 意为“伸出”。16dnotice留心，注意到。17a接下来发生的事情更让人惊讶，“我”给了那个男人一个拥抱。 18brolling表示眼泪不停地流下来，很形象。19c“我”对一个男人表达了感谢，仅仅就是因为他为“我”开门，并且“我”也感谢这个机会，因为它让“我”以身作则教育了“我”的孩子。20c作者感谢这件事情，因为这是一个教育孩子的好机会。阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的a,b,c或d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。find which direction is southdo you have a good sense of direction?if not,please take with you a compass. but if you forget to take a compass,you can still find your way.its never a good idea to imagine that the family member who was entrusted(委托)with the job of map-reading actually knows where the family is. you can tell by the slightly confused look on their faces that nothing on the ground seems to match the map. never mind. the sun is shining and its still morning. if you dont know the exact time,you can still find out where south is,but youll need to be patient.find a straight stick and put it in the ground in a place where you can mark its shadow.try to position the stick as vertically(垂直)as you can. you can check this by making a simple plumb line(铅锤线) with a piece of string and weight. you havent got any string?ok,use a thread from your clothes with a button tied at the end to act as a weight.mark the end of the shadow cast by the stick.wait approximately half an hour and mark the end of the shadow again.keep doing this until you have made several marks.the mark nearest the stick will represent the shortest shadow,which is east at midday,when the sun is highest in the sky and pointing to the exact south.pick a point in the distance along the line between the shortest shadow and the stick.that point is south of where you are.now you can turn the map,like you did before,and find which way you should be travelling.1. to find the direction,we ought to be patient probably because.a. it is not easy to find a proper stick b. it is not easy to position the stickc. it takes hours to make the marks d. it takes about half an hour to make the marks2. the passage would probably be most helpful to.a. those who draw maps b. those who get lostc. those who make compasses d. those who do

according to the information given in the passage. we lived in a very quiet neighborhood. one evening i heard a loud crash in the street. earlier that evening my wife had asked me to go to the store to get some soft drinks. it seemed like this would be a good time to let my teenager daughter holly practice her driving. at dinner my son talked about how much he liked my truck. i enjoyed having it, but i said, “guy, my heart is not set on that truck. i like it but it is just metal and wont last forever. never set your heart on anything that wont last.” after hearing the loud noise, the whole family ran outside. my son shouted, “dad! dad, holly crashed your truck.” my heart sank and my mind was flooded with conflicting thoughts. was anyone hurt? who else was involved? as i ran to the door, i heard a voice in my heart say, “here is a chance to show holly what you really love. shell never forget it.” the accident had occurred in my own driveway. holly had crashed my truck into our other vehicle, the family van (搬运车). in her inexperience, she had confused the brakes and the gas pedal. holly was unhurt physically, but when i reached her, she was crying and saying, “oh, dad, im sorry. i know how much you love this truck.” i held her in my arms as she cried. later that week a friend stopped by and asked what had happened to my truck. i told her the story. her eyes moistened(湿润) and she said, “that happened to me when i was a girl. i borrowed my dads car and ran into a log that had fallen across the road. i ruined the car. when i got home my dad knocked me to the ground and began to kick me.” over 40 years later, she still felt the pain of that night. it was a deep wound on her soul. i remember how sad holly was the night and how i comforted her. one day, when holly thinks back on her life, i want her to know that i love her a thousand times more than any piece of property. i repaired the van, bu
