The story in the song takes place not too far from where I live in Los Angeles. Its a good “driving” song, nothing complicated or “deep”.Say Something by A Great Big WorldA more recent song about a couple losing contact with each other. The piano part is very little playing but beautiful.American Pie by Don McLeanAnother song from my youth in the 80s, very popular with almost every American of my generation. It retells some of the key events of the middle 20th century, a song of happy memories of the past and wanting to return to those better times.The Weight by The BandAnother old song, originally made public in 1968, but one I didnt hear until I was in high school more than 10 years later. I dont understand the words to the song completely, but the feeling of the song is very comforting to me.Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili PeppersThis Los Angeles group wrote a song that 1 used to listen to when I first moved to LA more than 25 years ago. I didnt know anyone here when I first arrived. When I got bored, I used to drive up and down the major streets that cross the city from east to west, listening to this song about the “city of angel” being as “lonely as I am. (Don t worry! I have plenty of friends now.)1. What does the underlined word “deep” probably mean?A. with skill B. with comfortC. with a normal meaning D. with a significant meaning2.

D【解析】本文介绍了作者手机音乐软件中的一些歌曲。1. 词义猜测题。nothing complicated or “deep”这句话的意思是没有什么复杂或是重要意义，所以选D。2. 推理判断题。由Another old song, originally made public in 1968, but one I didnt hear until I was in high school more than 10 years later.可知这首歌1968年发行，十多年以后我才听到，所以作者听Weight by The Band，大约是在1978年后，也就是二十世纪八十年代，选C。3. 细节理解题。由Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili PeppersThis Los Angeles group wrote a song that 1 used to listen to when I first moved to LA more than 25 years ago.可知当作者最初搬到LA时，他听到的第一首歌是Under the Bridge，选D。【名师点睛】任何一篇文章中的句子在内容上都不是绝对孤立的，都跟句子所在的段落及整篇文章有关。利用上下文提供的情景和线索，进行合乎逻辑的综合分析进而推测词义最常见的就是利用上下文语境、常识和语法关系推断词义。特别要重视所需推断词汇前后的内容。小题2推理判断题。必须理解Another old song, originally made public in 1968, but one I didnt hear until I was in high school more than 10 years later.这句话的意思，才能推算出时间，这首歌1968年发行，十多年以后我才听到，所以作者听Weight by The Band，大约是在1978年后，也就是二十世纪八十年代，选C。BIve never been the kind of person to say, “its the thought that counts” when it comes to gifts. That was until a couple of weeks ago, when my kids gave me a present that blew me away.For years now, Ive been wanting to sell our home, the place where my husband and 1 raised our kids.

Of all the objects and all the memories, its this one thing in a home thats the hardest to leave behind. Friends I know have returned home after work only to discover their wall of heights has been freshly painted over. A new paint job wouldnt normally be greeted by tears, but erasing that evidence of motherhood hurts more than it should. Our kids grow in so many ways, but the wall is physical evidence of their progress, right there for everyone to see.Over the years, Ive talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved, even though the last marks were made 10 years ago when my kids stopped growing.So one day, while I was at work, my children decided to do something about it.They hired Jacquie Manning, a professional photographer whose work is about capturing (捕捉) the beautiful things in life, from clear lakes and skies to diamonds and ballgowns (舞会礼服).She came to our house while I was at work, and over several hours, took photos of the hundreds of drawings and lines, little grey fingerprints (手印), and old marks. Somehow, she managed to photograph all those years of memories perfectly.

It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful. It was created by the United Nations just after the war between Israel and Egypt in 1973. The philosophy (理念) behind it is: Say “Hello” and stop war.It sounds like a fine idea, but most of us know that simply saying “Hello” wont bring about world peace. Still, on a smaller range, the simple act of saying hello to someone can make a lot of difference.This might not be obvious. After all, its such a casual thing and requires so little effort. You raise your head to someone as you pass by them in the school corridor (走廊), say “Hello then its over.Although we might not realize it, a small thing like a greeting can mean a lot to a person. Many people are lonely because theyre shy. They find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want lo. It leads to them feeling cut off.On this basis, maybe its a good idea, not just on Nov. 21, but every day, to remember to say “Hello” to as many people as we can. The stranger who hears your greeting may secretly smile in their heart. You might even make their day.Greeting other people is the easiest way to be polite. Politeness is the way we individual humans link up with the rest of the human world outside of our circles of family and friends. Politeness is one of the aspects of culture that make us a society rather than just many individuals living in the same space.No one said it better than the French author Joseph Joubert: “Politeness is the flower of humanity. A “Hello” to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected (忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.8. What is World Hello Day intended for?A. Philosophy. B. Peace.C. Politeness. D. War.9. What has an effect on people most?A. Raising heads to others.B. Doing something casually.C. Meeting in the school corridor,D. The simple act of saying hello.10. Why does someone feel lonely?A. They are unwilling to communicate with others.B. They are too shy to communicate with others.C. They are very fond of living alone.D. They dont like doing things as others do.11. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. We should neglect a small thing.B. Saying hello lo others is powerful.C. The flowers make the world better.D. No one is better than Joseph Joubert.【答案】8. B 9. D 10. B 11. B【解析】这篇短文主要通过世界问候日这一主题，说明了对别人说“你好”看似是一件小事，但是这一句小小的问候可能会让别人的世界变得更美好。8. 细节理解题。由Nov. 21 is World Hello Day.

With its futuristic (未来主义) design and walls loaded with books, its the dream library of every book lover.But as the surprise continues, theres a burning question lying in the back of our minds: When physical bookstores are closing down one by one, what makes libraries safe from the wave of digitalization (数码化)? And do we really still need libraries now that weve got the Internet in our hands?Reporter Ian Clark has the answer. “Libraries are not declining in importancepeople are simply changing the way they use them,” he wrote on the Guardian website.What Clark means is that libraries have shifted from simply being storehouses of books to a medium to help “bridge the gap between the haves and the have-nots” according to website Libraries Are Essential. Since not everyone can afford a smartphone, a tablet or an Internet connection, and not everyone has the know-how to search the Internet correctly and efficiently, its public libraries that make sure that these resources and technologies are available to a larger group of people.“Nobody is trying to sell you anything in the library. There is no pressure to buy and there is no judgment of your choices/ Anne Goulding, a professor at Victoria University in New Zealand, wrote on the Newsroom website. “There are few other spaces that you can just be without somebody questioning your presence or your motivation.”12.
