29、下面的信息，向编辑部投稿。（80词左右） 1.你住在小山村，父母都是农民。几年前因为母亲生病、家庭贫困而辍学。曾经去广东打工，但还是希望有机会上学；2.多亏希望工程，给了你上学的机会；3.现在你学习很好，将来你想成为一名教师去帮助那些生活贫困的孩子们。 参考答案一、1.Ctaste“尝起来”；smell“闻起来”；sound“听起来”；feel“摸起来；觉得”。本句中代词it指代上句中提到的Gangnam Style这首歌，歌曲与听觉相关，故用连系动词sound。句意：“你知道Gangnam Style这首歌吗？”“当然知道。它听起来很有趣。”2.C答语句意为“我通过和美国朋友聊天来练习英语”

30、。这表示的是学习英语的方式，故用by；“和一起”用介词with，chat with sb.意为“和某人聊天”。3.Bdecide to do sth.意为“决定做某事”，为固定搭配，故选B。4.A由句意知，“他成为一名老师，给学生少布置作业”是一种假设的情况，故if意为“如果”，引导的是条件状语从句；主句是一般将来时，从句用一般现在时表将来，且he是第三人称单数，故用becomes。5.Cmind doing sth.意为“介意做某事”，故选C。6.A动词不定式作tell的宾语补足语，tell sb.(not) to do sth.意为“告诉某人（不）做某事”，故选A。句意：我总是告诉我的学生

31、不要在公路上玩，因为那样很危险。7.Cturn off“关闭”；put on“穿上”；get off“下车”；set up“搭起”。句意为“直到车停下你才能下车”，故get off符合句意。8.C本题考查交际用语。根据She is a doctor there.“她是那里的一名医生”可知该处为“不用担心”，故选C。 9.Cenjoy oneself是固定搭配，意为“玩得开心，过得愉快”。10.A本题考查代词用法。by oneself意为“靠某人自己”，learn.by oneself意为“自学”。11.Dnone（三者或三者以上中）没有一个；neither两者都不；all三者或三者以上都；bo

32、th两者都。根据后文“They are useful for English learners.（他们对英语学习者有用处。）”可推知：这两者都喜欢，故选D。12.B本题考查动词词义。understand理解，明白；imagine想象，设想；consider考虑到；expect期盼。根据前句“因特网与我们的日常生活联系如此密切”可知，本句句意为“你能想象没有它的生活吗？”。故imagine符合句意。13.A本题考查动词短语辨析。give out分发，散发；cut out切掉；put out熄灭；find out查明，弄清。由本句句意“许多志愿者在日本海啸之后给当地人分发食物和水”可知，give

33、out符合句意。14.Dused to do sth.是固定搭配，意为“过去常常做某事”；be used to doing sth.也是固定搭配，意为“习惯于做某事”。故选D。答语句意：她很好。她过去常常晚饭后在家看电视。但现在她习惯于外出散步。15.D本题考查情景交际。Could I.表示委婉地请求允许。根据答语中Dont you see the sign“Line up, please”?（你难道没看到“请排队”的标牌吗？）可知此处为拒绝对方请求。二、1.D 由下文“Because their parents do almost everything for them at home.”可

35、now是实义动词，因此借助于助动词did构成否定。6.D 由上文“One day her parents went away.”可知，她非常想念她的父母。7.B 由上句“At last she could only go to the supermarket.”可知，她去超市买吃的。故选B。8.A the same as意为“与相同；与一样”。句意为“许多青少年与Joy一样”。9.C actually意为“实际上；真实地”；carelessly意为“随便地，粗心地”；properly意为“适当地”；slowly意为“慢慢地”。句意为“所以我认为他们应当学会一些基本的生活技能，像做饭、打扫房间或

36、自己穿衣得体”。IV.四、1.D 我们可用“直接法”解答本题。由第三段中的The four boys spent their whole weekend making the change bags.可知，利用整个周末来制作这些零钱袋的是那四个男孩。故选D。2.A 我们可用“细节理解法”解答本题。由第一段中的And such an idea came from four students from Zhongbei Middle School,Tianjin.(这个主意来自天津中北中学的四名学生)可知A项正确。3.C 我们可用“主旨大意法”解答本题。本文讲述了中北中学的四名学生，在天津公交车站

38、o work for her.（并且她与为她工作的人保持联系)可推知，她“参与”决策。故选B。6.C 我们可用“细节理解法”解答本题。由第三段莫莉谈到萨莉时说I know that Sallys going to be a very nice manager.（我知道萨莉将会成为非常棒的经理)和她接下来的话Shes only been here a couple of days and shes already shown me how to work out a few problems we were having.（她来这里只有几天的时间，她已经向我展示了如何解决我们遇到的一些问题)知选

39、C“她已有能力解决一些问题”。7.B 我们可用“细节理解法”解答本题。由第二段可知莫莉对公司作出调整，不是不想再经营公司，而是想抽出时间多照顾些家庭，所以A项所述错误；由第三段中莫莉对萨莉的评价可知她对萨莉是很满意的，故B项所述正确；由第一段可知莫莉觉得孩子对保姆的了解比对她的了解还多，但没有对保姆不满的意思，所以C项所述错误；由第一、二段可知莫莉在事业上很成功，但在家庭方面，她正在努力进行平衡，故D项所述错误。 8.C 我们可用“逻辑推理法”解答本题。通读全文可知，莫莉为了平衡事业与家庭的关系对公司进行了调整，以便自己可以有更多的时间陪孩子、照顾家庭。故选C。五、1.Whats, with
