B.wasfleeingthethiefC.thethiefwasfleeing

D.fledthethief参考答案：D考查倒装。away为副词在句首引起倒装，AC排除,。flee意为"逃跑"是说一个瞬间的事,不用进行时，答案为D。句意：听到狗凶猛的叫,小偷逃跑了。14.Confrontedwiththecomplexinternationalsituation,weneedaforeignpolicythatismore____.A.symbolic

D.power参考答案：36.B。文章介绍中国春节的庆祝。在春节这一天，北方人和南方人有着不同的饮食习惯。37.D。中国的春节对中国人来说是个特别的日子。38.B。根据常识，吃饺子是一种通常的春节习俗。39.A。theendandthebeginningoftime，这里的end和后面的beginning对应。40.B。accordingtohistoricalrecords根据历史记载。41.D。“…theareasinSouthernChinaproducedmorericethanthoseinNorthernChina,…”是后文的原因，所以要用because。42.C。和rice搭配的动词用produce，意为“生产，产出”。43.D。南方人有更多其他的选择。44.A。besides除此之外。与前文是递进关系。45.D。noodles“面条”是一种食品，所以这里要用meal。46.A。根据常识和后文的longlife可以看出面条是长寿的象征。47.B。representthehope意为“代表希望”。48.C。年糕通常会给人们的生活带来好运。49.A。汤圆是团圆的象征。50.B。payavisitto…是固定搭配。51.A。express…greeting意为“表达……的问候”。52.C。前文介绍的是中国传统春节的庆祝，而后文的内容涉及当今的春节特点，前后内容是转折关系，所以要用however。53.D。通过“…newwaystocelebratetheChinesetraditionalNewYear.”可以看出，人们要采用新的方式庆祝中国传统的节日—春节。54.A。sendoutgreetingcards和useshortmessagesoremails形成对比，所以用instead来表转折。55.A。旅游已经成为当今春节庆祝的一种新时尚。comeintofashion意为“流行起来”。三、阅读理解18.Manypeoplerushintothecommitmentofbringinghomeafour-leggedfamilymember,onlytofindoutthattheyarenotreadyforapet.Thisoftenresultsinthedogbeingturnedovertoashelterwhereitmaynotfindanotherhome.Thiscanbeavoidedifpotentialpetownerstakethetimetofigureoutiftheyaretrulyreadyfortheresponsibilitiesofpetownership.Beingaresponsiblepetownerinvolvesafinancialcommitmentthatgoesbeyondbuyingdogfood.Therearealsoparasite(寄生虫)prevention,boardingcostswhiletravelingandthecosttocareforthepetshoulditbecomeillorinjured.Thatisnottosaythatonemustberichinordertohaveadog,butitisimportanttobepreparedfortheexpensesthatcomewithbeingapetowner.AnotherconsiderationisthetimecommitmentAnownerawayfromhomefor14hourseverydayisnotanidealsituationforadog.Apotentialdogownermustalsoconsiderthetimeittakestocareforhisorherpet,thetimeittakestofeed,walk,playwith,batheandcleanup.Also,dogsrequireattention.Bepreparedtospendtimeeachdaypettingandplayingwithit.Dogsaredogs,andwillactlikedogs.Thisincludesbarking,digging,havingaccidentsinthehouseandpossiblydestroyingsomeoftheowner’sprizedpossessions,suchasfurniture,shoesandcellphones.Iftheabovewouldcauseanownertowanttogetridofthedog,thenheorsheisnotyetreadytobeapetowner.Manywonderfulpetsendupinshelterssimplybecausetheyactedlikedogs!8.Whomightbesuitabletobeadogowneraccordingtothetext?A.Steven,abusinessmanwhotravelsalotonbusiness.B.Dick,ajoblessteenagerwhocanhardlypayhisrent.C.Jim,whohasadaughtersensitivetodog’ssmell.D.Kari,ateacherwhoworkseighthoursaday.9.TobearesponsibledogowneryouneedtodoallthefollowingEXCEPT

9.A

10.C

11.B本文是一篇议论文。如果想领养宠物需要先做好思想准备，需要在经济上和时间上对宠物有所付出，从而做一位负责人的宠物主人。8.推理判断题。根据第三段第二句Anownerawayfromhomefor14hourseverydayisnotanidealsituationforadog.并结合选项可知，作为老师Kari每天工作8小时，有充足的时间照顾小狗。因此他可能有资格成为狗的主人。9.细节理解题。根据第一段2,3句Thisoftenresultsinthedogbeingturnedovertoashelterwhereitmaynotfindanotherhome.Thiscanbeavoidedifpotentialpetownerstakethetimetofigureoutiftheyaretrulyreadyfortheresponsibilitiesofpetownership.可知，当你把狗带回家却没有做好准备照顾它时，这只能导致它被移交到一个庇护所去，这不是一个负责任的主人应该做的事情。10.句意理解题。根据第一段画线部分的后的onlytofindoutthattheyarenotreadyforapet.可知，许多人发现他们并没有为宠物做好准备，由此结合选项推知，许多人决定成为宠物的主人没有经过认真的考虑。11.标题归纳题。根据第一段最后一句中iftheyaretrulyreadyfortheresponsibilitiesofpetownership.并结合下文可知，文章主要谈的是想养宠物前你是否做好了准备，因此ReadyforaPet?为最佳答案。19.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。Highschoolgraduationisworthcelebrating.Itmarksabigchangeinthelivesofyoungadults.However,itoughttomeanevenmore.Itoughttomeanthatthegraduateisreadyforcollegeorcareer.Inareportissuedlastyear,wefoundthatalmosthalfofrecentIllinoishighschoolgraduatesrequiredremedialcourses(补习课)uponenrolling(注册)acommunitycollege.Thesecoursesrequiretimeandmoneytocomplete,yetoffernocreditstowardadegree.Toooften,studentsnevergetthroughthoseremedialcoursesandendupdroppingoutofcollege.Whyistheremediationratesohigh?Alargepartofthereasonisthatwehavenotsethighenoughstandardsforwhatourstudentsneedtolearnfromkindergartentohighschool.Theysimplyaren’tequippedwiththeknowledgeandskillstheyneedtosucceed.Thesameistrueforcareers.InIllinois,goodjobscontinuetogovacant(空缺)evenwhilewearetryinghardtogothroughtougheconomictimes.Thisisduelargelytothemismatchbetweentheskillsandknowledgeweprovideourstudentswithandwhatemployersinamoderneconomyneedworkerstoknow.ThegoodnewsisthatinIllinoiswehaveaplantohelpgetourstudentsreadyforlifeintherealworld.Wehavealreadytakenanimportantfirststepbybecomingoneofthe45statestoadopttheCommonCoreStateStandardsandhavebegunintroducingthemtoclassroomsthisyear.Thenewstandardsprovidefewer,clearerandhigherbenchmarks(标准)foracademicprogress.Theyfocusondeeperknowledgerequiredateachgradelevel,giveteacherstheopportunitytoexploretopicsfullyandensurest
