Everyone was having a wonderful time visiting and catching up on all the latest family news.Like most children, Tegan was having a good time playing with all the toys that were different from her own and that were kept for children to play with at her grandparents house. In particular, Tegan had found a little tea set and had begun pretending that she was having a tea party. She set up all the place settings and arranged her table with the great care and elegance that only a three-year-old can create. Meanwhile, her Daddy was engrossed in conversation, and as he continued to chat with his family, Tegan would hand him a cup of tea. Her Daddy, who always tries to participate in her games, would pause for a few seconds from his conversation, and say all the proper words and gestures for her tea party which would thrill Tegan. He would request two lumps of sugar. He would tell her how wonderful her tea tasted, and then he would continue his adult conversation with his family.After going through this routine several times, her Daddy suddenly awoke to reality as he had a flash of concern in his mind: She is only three years old, where is she getting this tea that Ive been dutifully drinking? He quietly followed her, without her knowing, and his fears were growing stronger as he saw her turn and go through the bathroom door. Sure enough, there she was stretching up on her tippy toes reaching up to get her tea water - out of the container of water that grandpa used to soak his false teeth!1At the family gathering, the adults _.Awatched their favorite TV programs Btalked about what happened at homeCdrank tea while chatting Darranged tables for childrens games2Which of the following phrases can replace the underlined phrase “was engrossed in” in Paragraph 2 ?Agot tired of Bgot annoyed byCwas absorbed in Dwas puzzled at3What can be learned from the text ?ATegan was unhappy to be left alone at the gathering.BTegans father often played with her in games.CTegan refused to apologize for what she had done.DTegans father cared nothing about what she was doing.4Tegans Dad followed her secretly to find out _.Awhether there was any tea leftBhow she made tea so wonderfulCwhere she got the sugar for teaDwhat kind of tea he had drunk参考答案1-4 BCBD 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项。Millions of Americans return from long-distance trips by air, but their luggage doesnt always come home with them. Airline identification tags（标签） can come loose, and the bags go who-knows-where. And passengers leave all kinds of things on planes.The airlines collect the items and, for 90 days, attempt to find their owners. They dont keep them, since theyre not in the warehouse business. And by law, they cannot sell the bags, because the airlines might be tempted to deliberately misplace luggage.So once insurance companies have paid for lost bags and their contents, and they no longer belong to passengers, a unique store in the little town of Scottsboro, Alabama, buys them. The “Unclaimed Baggage Center,” is so popular that the building, which is set up like a department store, is the number-one tourist attraction in all of Alabama. More than one million visitors stop in each year and take one of the stores shopping carts on a hunt for treasures.Each day, clerks bring out 7,000 new items, and veteran（老练的）shoppers rush to paw over them. You can find everything from precious jewels to hockey sticks, best-selling novels, leather jackets, tape recorders, surfboards, even half -used tubes of toothpaste.The stores own laundry washes or cleans all the clothes found in luggage, then sells them. The Unclaimed Baggage Center has found guns, illegal drugs and even a live rattlesnake.The store has a little museum where some of its most unusual acquisitions（获得物） have been preserved. They include highland bagpipes, a burial mask from an Egyptian pharaohs tomb, and a medieval suit of armor.Statistics indicate that less than one-half of one percent of luggage checked on U.S. carriers is permanently lost and available to the store.26.

It wasnt that she shouted, or told me that I was doing poorly. As you can imagine, my mothers helpful instructions only managed to make me more nervous. Since I could no longer practice with her, the job was placed in the hands of my father. The idea of learning from Dad was not one that thrilled me. I loved him dearly, but I just did not see Dad as someone I could be comfortable learning from. He almost never talked. We shared a typical father-daughter relationship. Hed ask how school was, and Id say it was fine. Unfortunately, that was the most of our conversations. Spending hours alone with someone who might as well have been a stranger really scared me. As we got into the car that first time, I was not surprised at what happened. Dad and I drove around, saying almost nothing, aside from a few instructions on how to turn. As my lessons went on, however, things began to change. Dad would turn the radio up so I could fully appreciate his favorite Stones music. And he actually began talking. I was soon hearing about past failed dates, basic body gym class, and other tales from his past, including some of his first meeting withMom. Dad s sudden chattiness was shocking until I thought about why he was telling me so much in the car. In all the years that I had wondered why my father never spoke that much, I had never stopped to consider that it was because I had never bothered to listen. Homework, friends, and even TV had all called me away from him, and, consequently, I never thought my quiet father had anything to say. Since I began driving with him, my driving skill has greatly increased. More important, though, is that my knowledge of who my father is has also increased. Just living with him wasnt enoughit took driving with him for me to get to know someone who was a mystery.59. The author couldnt practice driving with her mother because . A. she couldnt talk with her mother B. her father wanted to teach her C. her mother made her nervous D. she didnt trust her mother60. At first, the idea of learning driving from her father made her . A. happy B. uneasy C. satisfied D. disappointed61. What surprised the author when the driving lessons went on? A. Her Dad liked modern music. B. Her Dad was the best teacher. C. Her Dad was a chatty person. D. Her Dad told her his sad stories.62. With her story Car Talk, the author indicates that . A. fathers love their daughters dearly B. mothers are less patient than fathers C. family members need real communication D. it takes time to improve the father-daughter relationship【参考答案】59. C 60. B 61. C 62. C 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。When youre an employee of a company, no matter the size, its common to see co-workers promoted, or transferred to a different department. But there is another way to move aroundby creating a new position for yourself. I did this several years ago, though I wasnt actively looking for a different job. In 2007, I was hired at the Transamerica Life Insurance Company, as a customer service representative in the distributions services department. I processed requests for distributions from our annuity(养老金)policy holders around the country. Someone might have forgotten to sign a form, for example, or might have omitted security information. To solve the problem, Id mail the person a letter. The company had been through several combinations, so in our department alone we had a collection of about 140 templates(模板) for letters related to distributions. The longer I worked with the letters, the more I saw how they could be improved. Some had overlapping information and could be combined. Some had incorrect grammar or needed updating. I also noticed that industry terminology(专业术语) wasnt standard across all the versions. When I told my department supervisor about this in 2008, she agreed that the letters needed revamping. She said I should stop what Id been doing and start the new work. In a relatively short time, I was able to make numerous improvements and reduce the number of letters to 70. It was an informal job change until a managers meeting several months later. At that meeting, a vice president who was unaware of my new work mentioned that the divisions entire stock of 1,700 letters should be reviewed. My manager told her that she knew the perfect person for the jobme. The position was still considered temporary when I took on the extra tasks, but I was able to show that the work had value, and I was officially promoted and given a raise in November 2009.31. According to Paragraph 1, which of the following statements is true?A .The author admired those who got a promotion in his company.B. The author tried his best to get a promotion in his companyC. The author was eager to seek another job.D. It is no surprise to see people around us change their positions.【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。根据its common to see co-workers promoted, or transferred to a different depar
