1. A. seriously B. cheerfully
C. friendly D. coldly
答案:B 上周一,在刚开始上课的时候,我兴致勃勃地问学生们周末过得怎么样。下文3空所在的句子有“in a good mood”,第二段有“I choose to be cheerful”的提示。B项意为“兴致勃勃地”,符合语境。其它选项不合语境逻辑。
2. A. cut B. pulled
C. dragged D. removed

答案:D 作者为了论证“人起床的时候,可以选择如何面对一天的生活”,下文讲述了自己去一所社区大学上课途中车子抛锚但自己仍能乐观地看待此事的故事,即用该故事作例子论述自己的观点,故选D项。A项意为“教训”;B项意为“主意,观点”;C项意为“故事”,均不符合语境逻辑。
6. A. entered B. followed
C. exited D. took
答案:C 在这之前,我还在一所社区大学任教,那儿离我家17英里。几周前的一天,我驾车前往那所学校,驶离高速公路后,我转入了校园区。但在只差400多米就到学校的时候,我的汽车抛锚了。C项意为“驶离,离开”,符合题意。

答案:D 车子不可能总坏在路途中,所以我一到学校就马上打电话给汽车协会,让他们在我下课后安排一辆拖车过来,arrange for意为“为……作安排”,符合语境。A、B、C三项均为及物动词,后应直接跟宾语。
11. A. good B. bad
C. lucky D. hard
答案:C 倒数第三段中作者说:“我住在离这儿17英里的地方。其实我的车有可能在高速公路上的什么地方就坏掉了的,但庆幸的是,没有。相反,汽车是在离开了高速公路后才抛锚,而且距离学校很近。我还来得及上课,还能够安排拖车在课后来处理。如果我的汽车是注定了要在今天抛锚的,那在这个位置抛锚已经是非常幸运了。”由此可判断此处作者意为:“今天我真走运。”
12. A. However B. Therefore

答案:D be meant to do sth.意为“注定……”,此句意为:“如果我的汽车是注定了要在今天抛锚的话,那在这个位置抛锚已经是非常幸运了。”
15. A. couldn't B. mustn't
C. shouldn't D. needn't
答案:A 作者的意思是,如果他的汽车是注定了要在今天抛锚的话,那不可能再找到比这个地方更方便的抛锚之处了。couldn't have done表推测,意为“不可能……”。
16. A. completed B. stopped
C. succeeded D. ended
答案:D 由上下文逻辑及文章的提示,可判断作者的车子抛锚的故事讲完了。D项意为“结束”,符合语境。A项意为“完成”,为及物动词;B项意为“停止”;C项意为“成功”,不符合语境。
17. A. Somehow B. Anyhow
C. Thus D. Therefore
答案:B 虽然是在大清早,但没有一个学生在打盹,作者认为是因为他讲的故事使他们感动了,即:“不管怎么样,总之他们好像是被我的故事触动了。”B项意为“无论如何,不管怎么说,总之”,符合语境。A项意为“不知何故”;C、D两项意为“因此”,均不合语境。
18. A. In addition B. In all
C. In fact D. In general
答案:C 作者认为或许感动学生的根本不是故事。实际上,从一个学生观察到我很高兴那一刻,他们就已经被感动了。
19. A. observation B. recognition
C. conclusion D. question
答案:A 由第18题解析可知。
20. A. talks B. says
C. speaks D. tells
答案:C 此段意为:“乔布拉曾经引述过一位印度智者的名言:‘你为人行事的本身,比你的语言更具说服力。’我认为这的确是真理。”Who在句中引导主语从句,这里应用speaks,故选C项。
Ⅲ.阅读理解
Science experiments are a fun way for kids to learn all about science. I will introduce a few great experiments and teach your child all about the wonders of inertia(惯性).
Coin Shoot
You'll need some coins, at least eleven, and a smooth table. Stack(堆叠) all but one of the coins on the smooth table, making sure that the “high rise” is straight. Coins with wide edges make this experiment easy to do. Flick (弹) the extra coin quickly towards the bottom of the stack so that it hits the bottom coin. The bottom coin from the stack should shoot out from under the other coins without changing the rest of the stack. With good aim and quick flicks of your finger, you should be able to shoot all of the coins out of the stack one by one. Because the inertia of the stack of coins is so great, the force from the flicked coin is not enough to make the entire stack move or fall down.
The Pencil Standing
Place a narrow piece of paper on a smooth table. Hold the paper so that most of it hangs off the table. Place a pencil on the paper so that it is standing straight. Now, slowly try to pull the paper out from under the pencil. What happens? Set up the paper and pencil again, and give the paper a fast pull. What happens to the pencil this time?
Since the still pencil wants to stay at rest, it will be against the fast movement of the paper. This means that when the paper is moved quickly out from under the pencil, the pencil remains standing straight. If the paper is moved slowly, the movement has a chance to influence the pencil, and it will fall down.
1.Which of the following is used in both of the two experiments?
A.A narrow piece of paper.
B.A number of coins.
C.A smooth table.
D.A new pencil.
答案:C 细节理解题。由第二段第一句和第三段第一句可知,两个实验中都用到了a smooth table。
2.What do we know about stacking the coins?
A.At least eleven coins are needed but one isn't stacked.
B.The more coins in the experiment, the better.
C.All the coins should be stacked straight.
D.Nine coins are stacked but two are not.
答案:A 细节理解题。根据第二段前两句可知,至少需要十一枚硬币,而且其中一枚不能与其他的摞在一起。
3.What result can we get if we do the first experiment well?
A.The stack of coins fall down on the table.
B.The bottom coin is flicked out of the stack.
C.All of the coins are taken away from the table.
D.All of the coins are shot out of the stack one by one.
答案:D 细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第二句可知,如果将这个实验做好,摞起来的硬币会一枚一枚地被击出。
4.Most of the paper hangs off the table so that ________.
A.we can pull it quickly
B.we can take hold of it
C.it can influence the pencil
D.the pencil can stand straight
答案:A 推理判断题。根据第三段倒数第二句“Set up the paper and pencil again,and give the paper a fast pull.”可推知,这样放纸条是为了能够迅速地抽出纸条,故答案为A项。
