題目列表(包括答案和解析)
This is the letter that Mr. White wrote before his death about his three books for children:
Dear Reader:
I receive many letters from children and can't answer them all -- there wouldn't be time enough in a day. That is why I am sending you this printed reply to your letter. I'll try to answer some of the questions that are commonly asked.
Where did I get the idea for Stuart Little and for Charlotte's Web? Well, many years ago I went to bed one night in a railway sleeping car, and during the night I dreamed about a tiny boy who acted rather like a mouse. That's how the story of Stuart Little got started.
As for Charlotte's Web, I like animals and my barn(谷倉) is a very pleasant place to be, at all hours. One day when I was on my way to feed the pig, I began feeling sorry for the pig because, like most pigs, he was doomed to die. This made me sad. So I started thinking of ways to save a pig's life. I had been watching a big grey spider at her work and was impressed by how clever she was at weaving. Gradually I worked the spider into the story that you know, a story of friendship and salvation(拯救) on a farm. Three years after I started writing it, it was published. (I am not a fast worker, as you can see.)
Sometimes I'm asked how old I was when I started to write, and what made me want to write. I started early -- as soon as I could spell. In fact, I can't remember any time in my life when I wasn't busy writing. I don't know what caused me to do it, or why I enjoyed it, but I think children often find pleasure and satisfaction is trying to set their thoughts down on paper, either in words or in pictures. I was no good at drawing, so I used words instead. As I grew older, I found that writing can be a way of earning a living.
Some of my readers want me to visit their school. Some want me to send a picture, or an autograph, or a book. And some ask questions about my family and my animals and my pets. Much as I'd like to, I can't go visiting. I can't send books, either -- you can find them in a bookstore or a library. Many children assume that a writer owns (or even makes) his own books. This is not true -- books are made by the publisher. If a writer wants a copy, he must buy it. That's why I can't send books. And I do not send autographs(親筆簽名,手稿) -- I leave that to the movie stars. I live most of the year in the country, in New England. From our windows we can look out at the sea and the mountains. I live near my married son and three grandchildren.
Are my stories true, you ask? No, they are imaginary tales, containing fantastic characters and events. In real life, a family doesn't have a child who looks like a mouse; in real life, a spider doesn't spin words in her web. In real life, a swan doesn't blow a trumpet(喇叭,小號) . But real life is only one kind of life -- there is also the life of the imagination. And although my stories are imaginary, I like to think that there is some truth in them, too -- truth about the way people and animals feel and think and act.
Yours sincerely,
E.B. White

The meal you eat after exercising matters! No matter what time of day you exercise, the key is to follow the exercise up with meals that supply enough nutrition. For the best results, eat within thirty to sixty minutes after exercising, when the muscles are at the best time to take in nutrients.
Here are some ideas for meals after exercising:
Home-made sports—recovery drink
Mix banana, milk, and yogurt to make a fresh and satisfying sports—recovery drink. Dairy products like milk and yogurt work double duty, providing both protein and carbohydrates. A cup of coffee, on the other hand, is a poor choice.
Protein—packed sandwich
You can’t go wrong with a sandwich after exercising—it’s got everything in a hand—held package. Sandwiches provide the salt you need to replace what you have lost by sweating, while the tomatoes in them supply plenty of Vitamin C. Try using whole—wheat bread to give yourself more fiber. The cheese and fresh vegetables in sandwiches are also great for helping tired muscles recover.
Power breakfast
An egg sandwich is a perfect post—exercise breakfast. There’s protein in both the yolk(蛋黃) and the white of the egg. This recipe increases your protein intake while keeping calories and fat under control. Eggs also contain zinc(鋅), which helps protect against disease.
Plant—based protein
Beans are an amazing source of plant—based protein and carbohydrates. Make a large bowl of bean salad in the beginning of a week, and you’ll have a great post—exercise meal that is ready whenever you need it.
53.Why does the author advise eating a protein—packed sandwich after exercising?
A.It helps increase the protein in your body. B.It has plenty of fat and calories.
C.The things in it help you recover. D.It is an amazing source of carbohydrates.
54.What should you do when your muscles feel tired?
A.Eat cheese and fresh vegetables.
B.Drink as much milk and yogurt as possible.
C.Eat whole—wheat bread instead of a sandwich.
D.Eat and drink as soon as possible.
55.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.It’s the best time for muscles to take in nutrients within 30 to 60 minutes after exercising.
B.It’s best for you to have an egg sandwich after exercising.
C.A cup of coffee will help you recover after exercising.
D.Bean salad is another great meal for post—exercising.
56.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The healthy eating habits of athletes. B.The best time for exercising.
C.How to warm up before exercising. D.What to eat after exercising.
Connie Lau hates smoking. “It smells awful, and it’s so bad for you. It breaks my heart to see my friends smoking. I try to get them to give up smoking.” She says.
So why does Connie walk into convenience stores and try to buy cigarettes? She is testing to see if stores will sell cigarettes to a kid who is younger than 18. “You have to be 18 to purchase cigarettes, and I’m 16, so if they sell to me, they’re breaking the law,” Connie says.
Connie isn’t a vigilante (治安隊員); She works with local police in her town of Castro Valley, California. Officers drive her to stores, and she goes in alone to try to buy cigarettes. If the person behind the counter sells her a pack, an officer comes in and writes the business a ticket for breaking the law.
Most stores obey the law and don’t sell her cigarettes. The law requires that customers show ID if store employees ask them to. “When they ask your age, you can’t lie,” Connie says. “Most stores don’t sell to me. In a year, we’ve visited almost 150 stores and had only 15 sales.”
Working undercover can be scary, even with police nearby. Connie said one cashier refused to sell her cigarettes and then got angry when he found out her age. He threatened to call the authorities. “To calm him down, the police went in to explain that I was undercover,” she says.
Most teens wouldn’t think of going undercover for the police. What’s Connie’s motivation (動機)? For starters, she can’t stand smoking. But she also believes it’s important for young people like her to try to make a real impact in their communities. In her view, teens can do more than get good grades in school, do chores at home, and do well in out-of-class activities.
Every time she stops the sale of cigarettes to children, she’s helping to uphold the law. “A single teenager can make a big difference,” Connie says. “For the most part, when stores get caught, they learn their lesson and don’t do it again.”
【小題1】According to the law what age of person can the store be allowed to sell cigarettes to?
A.Under 18. | B.More than 18. | C.16. | D.More than 16. |
________.
A.discover whether stores can sell cigarettes to kids |
B.see which stores can sell cigarettes to her friends |
C.look for her friends |
D.a(chǎn)rrest the smokers |
A.The owner would be arrested. | B.The owner would be fined. |
C.The kids would be punished. | D.The kids would be removed from school. |
________.
A.she wants more smokers to quit smoking |
B.she wants to get good grades in school |
C.she hopes to make a difference in the area |
D.she hopes to be excellent in out-of-class activities |
A.Smoking can be forbidden with the help of a girl. |
B.A good way to stop a store from selling cigarettes to kids. |
C.Connie Lau — a brave girl who goes undercover for the policeman. |
D.Connie Lau goes undercover to stop stores from selling cigarettes to kids. |
Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives.For example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite.Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving.Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls.
Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programs come to US through satellites.Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location.
We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another.They are usually 35,880 kilometers above the equator.Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place.This is because it is moving around the world at 11,000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates.A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae(天線)facing the earth.Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit,So there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position.This usually happens about every five or six days.
Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth.A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years.Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired.Often,very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time.This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other.
Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage?
A.Sending information for weather forecast.
B.Taking photographs of the Earth.
C.Sending TV pictures.
D.Providing food for airplane pilots.
What’s the speed the earth rotates at?
A.35,880 kilometers per hour. B.335,880 kilometers per hour.
C.11,000 kilometers per hour. D.110,000 kilometers per hour
Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed as the Earth rotates?
A.In order to take photographs.
B.In order to stay in a certain position in the orbit.
C.In order to move away from its orbit.
D.In order to send television pictures.
What does the underlined word “This” refer to?
A.A satellite. B.A little rocket.
C.A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky.
D.The satellite puts the rockets in the right position.
Which is true of satellites?
A.A satellite usually works for about 10-2 years.
B.Every time a satellite gets broken,it is brought back to the Earth to be repaired.
C.A broken satellite is never left in space.
D.They often crash into each other.
Minimalism (簡約主義) is a term that describes movements in various forms of art and design, especially visual art and music, where the work is reduced to its most basic features.
As for me, minimalism functions well not in art or design, but in my daily life.
When I was packing for university, I found it extremely difficult to let go of some of the things I owned. I knew I couldn’t take everything with me, but I kept asking myself “how could I possibly throw this away?”, “what if I need it one day?”, and “what about all of the memories?” Now that I’ve moved, and left that stuff behind, I don’t even miss it. Whether or not I got rid of it, it barely makes a bit of difference to me now.
I’ve learned that over time people forget, or their need for a particular object eventually disappears. Either they store it away or they get rid of it.
You might think nostalgically(懷舊的) about the toys you cared about when you were a child, but what is making you smile now is not the thing itself but the memory of it. 1’ve heard it a hundred times, “you don’t need things to make you happy.” It takes something life-changing like moving across the country to realize how true this is.
Speaking of which, for a lot of people, minimalism is about able to move. It’s about being able to go almost anywhere at any time because you don’t have many possessions to carry. When you keep things you don’t need they become a burden that ties you to a place. Moving to university was a good time to let go of a lot of stuff. And when I visit for the holidays, I’ll probably get rid of even more, to lighten the burden.
Of course there are exceptions. There are some things that are irreplaceable, very rare or expensive or we simply love and cherish for some reason or another, since we are humans. But after we keep those, how much is left that we don’t really need?
Hence, minimalism. And why does minimalism bring happiness? That was a bit of a roundabout way of saying that, it’s because what really makes me happy is freedom. And the key to freedom is minimalism because minimalism reduces our attachment to things.
Attachment to too many objects creates a great mess and can severely hold back our freedom to do whatever we want, while minimalism helps us start new projects, move, travel, learn new things, work, expand, be debt-free, be healthy – really living life to our full potential.
I left the nest to fly onwards and upwards, I can’t do it with old things weighing me down. And that is why I have adopted minimalism with open arms.

第三部分 話題簡述

School Life
例一 要點:
1. 在英國上了一年的中學,是一段令我非常開心的經(jīng)歷;很喜歡英國中學的作息時間,因為學校每天上午大約9點上課,下午3點半放學這意味著我每天可以比以往晚一小時起床,因為在中國,學校每天上午8點之前就開始上課了;
2. 在那一年里,我有過許多老師,每位老師只教一門課;我最喜歡的老師是教我們英國文學的格林小姐;我們班上一共有29 個學生,英國中學的班級差不多就是這么大;我們得去不同的教師上不同的課;
3. 我發(fā)現(xiàn)這里布置的課外作業(yè)不像在原來學校時那么繁重,但是,覺得有些挑戰(zhàn)性;感到幸運的是,所有老師都非常熱心地幫助我。
Going to a British school for
one year was a very enjoyable experience for me. I was very happy with the
school hours in British because school starts
例二 要點:

Looking Good, Feeling Good
例一 要點:
1. 實際情況是,青少年的飲食習慣和生活方式往往讓人頭疼;但好消息是,如果你合理飲食,經(jīng)常鍛煉,就可以感覺更好,精力更充沛;健康的飲食習慣加上有規(guī)律的鍛煉是保持健壯的體格的唯一途徑;
2. 從長遠覺度來看,只是節(jié)食并不能湊效;大約19%的青少年聲稱,他們都曾嘗試過節(jié)食或者干脆不吃飯,借以控制自己的體重;可是如果你攝入適當?shù)目防铮⑶医?jīng)常鍛煉,你就會減輕體重,保持健康狀態(tài),感覺很棒;
3. 在青少年時期,給予你的身體所需的足夠能量是很重要的;如果你不吃飯,你就不能攝入足夠的卡路里;就會感覺到疲勞;順便說一句,“卡路里”其實就是能量的代名詞。
The truth is, the diet and lifestyle of teenagers are often a headache to adults. But, the good news is that you can feel better and have more energy if you eat the right food and exercise regularly. Healthy eating, along with regular exercise, is the only way to become fit. Diets just don’t work in the long term. About 19% of teenagers say they have tried dieting and not having meals to control their weight! If you take in the correct number of calories and exercise regularly, you will lose weight, keep fit, and feel great. During your teenage years, it is important to give your body the energy it needs. If you don’t have meals, you don’t get enough calories. And then you feel tired. By the way, “calorie” is just another word for energy.
例二 要點:
1.處在青少年時期的女孩一天需要大約2200卡路里,而男孩需要稍微多一點;人體攝入的卡路里50%應該源自米飯、面包、蔬菜和水果;
2. 你還需要喝很多的水一天需要6至8杯;水有利于保持人體內(nèi)系統(tǒng) 清潔;足飲水會改變你的皮膚,讓你擁有健康的頭發(fā);
3. 每晚保證充足的睡眠對你的健康也是很重要的;睡眠中,你的身體幫助你為即將到來的一天做好準備;青少年每晚需要8至10小時的睡眠;事實上,減少睡眠會使你面帶倦容,甚至導致你發(fā)胖。
Teenager girls need about 2200 calories a day. Boys need a bit more. 50% of your calories should come from rice, bread, vegetables and fruit. You also need a lot of water, 6 to 8 glasses a day. Water helps keep your system clean. Drinking enough water will improve your skin and give you healthy hair. A good amount of sleep every night is also important for your health. When you sleep, your body prepares you for the day to come. Teenagers need 8 to 10 hours of sleep each night. As a matter of fact, loss of sleep can make you look tired, and even cause you to put on weight.

Save the Environment
例一 要點:
1、 為了我們的下一代,我們要拯救環(huán)境。許多人認為,如果我們想讓經(jīng)濟繼續(xù)發(fā)展,污染就不可能停止。
2、 然而,我們可以做很多事情。比如,我們應該鼓勵人們購買對環(huán)境有益得多的可循環(huán)產(chǎn)品。這就意味著我們不需要砍伐更多的樹木并造成更多森林的毀滅。工業(yè)仍會繼續(xù)發(fā)展,而我們的地球則不必受到磨難。
3、我們也面臨著人口問題。世界人口持續(xù)增長,更多的垃圾隨之產(chǎn)生。為了我們的下一代,我們必須共同努力,維護地球的清潔健康。
We have to save our environment for our future generations. Many people think
that pollution cannot be stopped if we want the economy to continue developing.
However, many things can be done. For example, people should be encouraged to
buy recycled products,which
are much friendlier to the environment. It means we do not need to cut down
more trees and cause the destruction of more forests. Our industry will still
grow, but the earth will not have to suffer.
We also have the population problem. As the number of people in the world keeps
growing, we are producing more rubbish. For our future generations, we must all
work together to keep our earth clean and healthy.
例二 要點:
1. 長江是世界第三長河。隨著工農(nóng)業(yè)的飛速發(fā)展和人口的快速增長,長江已被嚴重污染了。據(jù)報道,2000年,有234億噸未經(jīng)處理的生活工業(yè)污水被傾到入長江中,長江問題在國內(nèi)外都引起了廣泛關注。
2. 值得慶幸的事,許多人已經(jīng)認識到了保護長江的重要性。許多環(huán)保組織已被設立已處理這個問題。比如說,綠色河流組織的宗旨就是教育并告誡人們保護這條偉大的河流的重要性。一些保護這條河流的政府專項工程也在建設中。
3. 因此,長江的環(huán)境狀況正再逐步改善。我們相信它會變的越來越好。
