解析:

(1)

produce great changes意為“引起了巨大的變化”。句意為:“汽車、收音機(jī)、電影和電視給(人們的)娛樂消遣帶來了巨大變化!毕挛闹凶髡甙100年前人們的娛樂方式與現(xiàn)在作了比較。

(2)

人們在空閑時間娛樂消遣,free time意為“空閑時間”,符合文意。

(3)

上文提到的是“在過去100年期間”的情況,此段中提到的應(yīng)該是100年之前的情況,故應(yīng)選hundred。

(4)

gather意為“聚集”,在這里可表示人們聚在一起進(jìn)行各種活動。

(5)

above all意為“尤其是、最重要的是”。該句提到聊天的意義。

(6)

聊天是一門藝術(shù),只有藝術(shù)才能使人感到有趣,使人快樂,故選擇art符合文意。

(7)

keep“保持、維持”,是持續(xù)性動詞,因此可以和for hours連用。make為瞬間動詞,不能和for hours連用。

(8)

amuse意為“給……提供娛樂”。全文主要講消遣娛樂的活動方式,此句講大多數(shù)人雖然球打得不是很好,但他們既娛樂了自己,也給朋友帶來了消遣。從語意和搭配上判斷只有D項正確。

(9)

hear sb.意為“聽見某人的聲音”,此處表示聽大歌唱家唱歌,選其他動詞均與句意不符。

(10)

who引導(dǎo)定語從句修飾players。由于這里提到的運動員(players)不是正規(guī)運動員,而是與后面的the best players相對應(yīng),因此要用否定式are not來表達(dá)這一含義。

(11)

watch sb.doing sth.意為“看某人做某事”。其余選項不符合上下文語境。

(12)

play a match意為“比賽”。從后文“很少有人這樣做。你可能只舒舒服服待在家里看比賽……”可推斷出真正自己去比賽的人很少,故選D項。

(13)

at home(在家里)與后面的going outside相對應(yīng)。

(14)

without the trouble of意為“不必花工夫、力氣……”,與前面的comfortably(舒服地)相對應(yīng)。

(15)

custom指整個社會所共有的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣,被一致承認(rèn)并長期遵循。practice可以和custom同義,但常含貶義,也可指商業(yè)或法律上的常規(guī)做法。interest后應(yīng)接介詞in。habit指生活習(xí)慣,且與短文第二段第一句中的“…in the habit of…”相呼應(yīng),故應(yīng)選擇B項。

(16)

die的進(jìn)行時表示漸變過程即“逐漸消失”。此句意為:“聊天藝術(shù)和進(jìn)行體育(文娛)比賽、唱歌的習(xí)慣正在逐漸消失!敝挥蠧項符合文意。

(17)

fewer意為“更少、較少”。此句意為“人們越來越多地成為看者(lookers)和聽者(listeners),而實干者(doers如players,singers等)和談話者(talkers)越來越少”。

(18)

do sb.harm意為“對某人有害”,do sb.good意為“對某人有好處”。由作者的觀點可知:上述變化給人們帶來的害處要比好處多,故選more harm than good。

(19)

該句表明了作者的觀點,即“(自己)參與做某事要比坐在一旁看別人做某事更好”。

(20)

選always表現(xiàn)出人們總是坐在一旁看別人做某事,能起到加強(qiáng)語氣的作用。

  Small-class teaching used to be accepted only in universities in China. But it has been very 1 in all schools abroad. Interestingly, it seem that it is finding 2 way into the primary schools(小學(xué))in Shanghai.

  Recently, 12 schools 3 Hetian Road Primary School held small-class lessons.

  One day I 4 the classroom of class 4, Grade 1 of Siping Road Primary School, I found that they were 5 a Chinese lesson with the topic(話題) of " 6 ".The 24 pupils of the class were divided into six 7 .They were discussing the question 8 by teacher: Draw the scenery (風(fēng)景) 9 in the spring. In a moment, four 10 of drawing were hung before the 11 .Then the children were 12 to explain the drawing in their own 13 :"The sun is smiling"; The little fish 14 out of the river to 15 the red flowers or green leaves in the spring"; "the little bird is playing a 16 in the sky"; "The grass is dancing by the river"

  The new teaching 17 greatly helped develop every child's 18 ability(能力) and thirst for 19 .

  When asked about the good results brought about by the small-class teaching , Mr Yu, headmaster of Siping Road Primary School, said that new way of teaching 20 .It can help puplis work out problems on their own. 22 ,a teacher may have to pay more attention to each 23 ,even to some shy ones who are often neglected (忽視) by the teachers in a 24 class. This means that teachers should know each student quite well, Yu said.

  It is said that, in the near future, the small-class teaching method will 25 to other primary schools in Shanghai.

閱讀下面短文,從短文后所給各題的四個選項(AB、C、D)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。

What actually happens when we read? Some people think that we read one word   1   ,

understand it and then go on to the next. Other people think that our eyes smoothly   2   over each line from left to right, then back to the beginning of the    3    line, and so on. In fact, the physical action of reading usually doesn’t work in    4    of those ways.

   5    you do this experiment with a friend. Get hold of a book with a large page

  6   and with lines that go right   7    the page.    8    your friend to    9    the book up and to read it with the top of the book just    10     his eyes level. This   11    that you can watch the movement of his eyes as he read the page.   12    you do this, you will see that your friend’s eyes do not make a continuous forward sweep.   13    they progress(前移) by little “jumps”, moving, then stopping, as they progress along the line.

   14    to be this starting and stopping movement    15    the eye can see only when it is not moving. Every time the eye    16     it sees a phrase or even a sentence, then jumps to the next part of the line, and so on.

There is another interesting fact about eye movement. You will notice that,    17    , the reader goes back and looks again at something he    18     before, in other words, he returns to an earlier part of the text probably because he    19    he is not understanding it properly. Then he comes back to    20     he stopped and continues reading.

What actually happens when we read? Some people think that we read one word   1   ,

understand it and then go on to the next. Other people think that our eyes smoothly   2   over each line from left to right, then back to the beginning of the    3    line, and so on. In fact, the physical action of reading usually doesn’t work in    4    of those ways.

   5    you do this experiment with a friend. Get hold of a book with a large page

  6   and with lines that go right   7    the page.    8    your friend to    9    the book up and to read it with the top of the book just    10     his eyes level. This   11    that you can watch the movement of his eyes as he read the page.   12    you do this, you will see that your friend’s eyes do not make a continuous forward sweep.   13    they progress(前移) by little “jumps”, moving, then stopping, as they progress along the line.

   14    to be this starting and stopping movement    15    the eye can see only when it is not moving. Every time the eye    16     it sees a phrase or even a sentence, then jumps to the next part of the line, and so on.

There is another interesting fact about eye movement. You will notice that,    17    , the reader goes back and looks again at something he    18     before, in other words, he returns to an earlier part of the text probably because he    19    he is not understanding it properly. Then he comes back to    20     he stopped and continues reading.
