Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2017·遵义第四中学月考)
Every time I lost a tooth I would put it under my pillow at night. The next morning I would wake up to find two coins replacing my tooth. Then I'd wonder about the tooth fairy all day.
“Mom, where do you think the tooth fairy lives? What does she do with the teeth she collects？”
My mom said she didn't know. She only knew that the tooth fairy took the tooth away while we were sleeping and left us some money under our pillow. But I wanted to find out. So I think it was a good thing that I would lose another tooth. The plan was to stay up all night and ask the tooth fairy when she showed up.
That night I lay quietly in my bed, growing sleepy as the night went on. Moments later, I felt that someone was close to me. Through my half opened eyes, I didn't see any feet, but I knew it was the tooth fairy. I watched her run around and fly right out of my room. She was wearing a shiny green dress. After she left, I immediately felt under my pillow. There were two coins. I had never even felt my pillow move. I wondered if she used magic.
As I got older, I learned from my teachers that the tooth fairy didn't exist. It was just a mythical figure of early childhood. I kind of thought it was, but how could I see the tooth fairy fly that night?
Then one night my mom came into my room to check on me. The moonlight was bright that night and it shone through my window right on her shiny green nightdress. Right then I knew deep down that my mom was the tooth fairy.

Ⅲ.语法填空
(2017·辽宁省沈阳市高三模拟)
Welcome back to the hot topic of studying abroad! Last time, we talked about the general “software” needed to have a __1__ (success) studying experience overseas, __2__ refers to the ability to understand western culture, and problem solving skills when __3__ (face) critical situations, etc.
Now, I will dig deeper into the concept of “software”. Everyone is talking about culture shock nowadays, but you may wonder what it actually __4__ (mean). Simply put: culture shock is the difficulty people may experience when being exposed and adjusting to a __5__ (remarkable) different new culture. Usually, people often go __6__ four distinct phases: the honeymoon phase, the negotiation phase, the adjustment phase and the mastery phase. Culture shock can happen immediately upon your __7__ (arrive) in the country.
For international students, perhaps the most direct impact of culture shock is the variety of accents, especially in multicultural countries __8__ the U．S. Canada or Australia. There are two main reasons: Firstly, these countries have highly diversified groups of residents from different cultural __9__ (background). Secondly, there are many international students from all around the world every year studying in these countries, so you shouldn't be surprised __10__ (find) all kinds of unfamiliar accents around the university campus.
答案与解析
本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了“文化冲击”的含义、特征以及所产生的影响的原因等情况．
1．successful 考查词性转化的用法。此处应用 success 的形容词形式 successful 修饰后面的名词 experience。

2．which 考查非限制性定语从句的用法。在这个非限制性定语从句中，先行词是 a successful studying experience overseas，指物，关系词在从句中作主语，所以此处应用 which。
3．facing 考查非谓语动词的用法。此处考查的是非谓语动词作状语的用法，因为主语 we 和 face 之间存在逻辑上的主谓关系，所以此处应用 facing 作状语。
4．means 考查动词时态和主谓一致的用法。根据上下文语境可判断出，此处应用一般现在时；又因主语是 it，是单数，所以此处应用 means。
5．remarkably 考查词性转化的用法。此处应用 remarkable 的副词形式 remarkably 修饰后面的形容词 different。
6．through 考查固定短语的用法。语境表示，通常来讲，人们要经历四个不同的阶段，go through 意为“经历”，符合语境。
7．arrival/arriving 考查词性转化的用法。根据前面的形容词性物主代词 your 可判断出，此处应用 arrive 的名词形式 arrival 或动名词形式 arriving。
8．Like 考查介词的用法。语境表示，“尤其是在像美国、加拿大或澳大利亚这些多元化国家”，应用介词 like “像……一样”。
9．backgrounds 考查名词的用法。根据前面的 different 可判断出，此处应用 background 的复数形式。
10．to find 考查非谓语动词的用法。“be surprised to do sth.”是固定结构，所以此处应用 to find。
