试题分析:作者在文中讲述了一个很感人的故事。她的家里有两只小狗Zack和Sam,它们都特别喜欢和作者的女儿玩,尤其是小狗Zack, 它每晚都会陪小主人上楼去睡觉,但是Sam却对此表现的不感兴趣。然而在Zack不幸死去后,小狗Sam却主动负担起了Zack的任务。
小题1:C名词辨析。A.教堂;B. 法院;C. 医院;D. 体育场。从情理判断孩子应该是在医院出生,所以是在孩子出生后首次从医院带回家,答案选C。
小题2:B动词辨析。A. 攻击;B. 爱; C. 惊吓; D.接近。根据后句They licked(舔) her and rubbed(摩擦)可以判断这是小狗对女儿友好喜爱的表现,而且后文中because it loved her so much…..也是重要提示。
小题3:A介词辨析。A.反;对B. 和;C. 为 ;D. 在上。根据词义辨析可知against有“紧靠,倚”的意思,此处指小狗在人身上蹭,以表示友好喜爱,答案选A。
小题4:C动词辨析。A.给;B. 打破;C. 强迫;D. 放。根据后面的原因状语从句because it loved her so much that it licked her over and over again可以推断为了不让小狗的举动影响到女儿,作者不得不强行把Zack弄走。
小题5:A动词辨析。A. 睡觉;B. 跳;C.聊天;D. 跑。此空可以用排除法排除,因为刚出生的婴儿不会跑、跳或者聊天,故答案选A。
小题6:A形容词辨析。A.更大; B.更胖;C. 更健壮;D. 更弱。从情理可知此处是指随着孩子的长大,其他选项不符合语境,答案选A。
小题7:A动词辨析。A. 走;B. 带走;C. 滚动;D. 拉。根据上下文可知女儿会走路后,小狗Zack总会在楼梯口等着女儿,陪她一起上楼去睡觉,walk sb“步行陪某人”,其他选项不合情理,答案选A。
小题8:D副词辨析。A. 因此;B.另外;C. 罕见地;D. 然而。从上文可知小狗Zack每天陪女儿上楼,小狗Sam不做这样的事,由此可知此处是转折关系,答案选D。
小题9:B形容词辨析。 A. 最好的;B. 最坏的;C. 最长的;D.最有趣的。从情理推断心爱的小狗死了,家人们会伤心,所以对他们来说是最为糟糕的一天,选B。
小题10:B名词辨析。A. 食物;B. 床;C. 乐趣;D. 舒适。根据上文Zack would wait for her on the staircase before she went to bed, then       her to her bed可知平时都是小狗Zack陪孩子去上楼睡觉,所以此处指孩子去楼上睡觉,答案选B。
小题11:C名词辨析。 A. 兴奋;B. 惊讶;C. 害怕;D. 欢乐。And前后连接同一范畴的词,所以从and前面的fear可以判断C选项正确,指孩子没有了小狗的陪同,独自上楼感到孤独害怕。
小题12:A动词短语辨析。A. 站起;;B. 举起; C. 攀登;D. 编造。根据后面小狗Sam的动作and walked to my daughter,可以判断A选项正确。句意:在那个时候,小狗站了起来,走向我的女儿。
小题13:C动词辨析。A. 注意;B. 看;C. 等待;D. 叫喊。根据上文Zack would wait for her on the staircase以及对Sam的讲述可知自从Zack死后,小狗Sam就代替它负责在楼梯口等它的小主人,答案选C。
举一反三
To make new friends, the first thing you need to do is to meet up with new people, this should be quite      , as your neighborhood should have a club, school or some other small organizations.
Go there and talk to people.       you get into a social circle or group, making friends is not hard at all.
Look easygoing. You needn’t      in fancy clothes or wear loud make-ups to attract people. Make eye       and smile often; don’t look too nervous and listen to what others have to say.
Accept people the way they are. Nobody is      ; you are not either. Everyone has faults and the way to make friends is by looking at the positive aspects of people. In case you don’t like someone’s behavior, it is better to       them than to create a rivalry (对抗).
Don’t forget old friends. If they have moved away or if you have moved away, be in       through phone calls and emails. Don’t leave old friends for the sake of new ones.

At 21,Ricardo Semler became boss of his father"s business in Brazil,Semco,which sold parts for ships. Semler Junior worked like a mad man,from 7:30 am,until midnight every day. One afternoon,while touring a factory in New York,he broke down. The doctor who treated him said,"There"s nothing wrong with you. But if you continue like this, you"ll find a new home in our hospital. "Semler got the message. He changed the way he worked. In fact,he changed the ways his employees worked too.
He let his workers take more responsibility so that they would be the ones worrying when things went wrong. He allowed them to set their own salaries,and he cut all the jobs he thought were unnecessary,like receptionists and secretaries. This saved money and brought more equality(平等)to the company. "Everyone at Semco,even top managers,meets guests in reception,does the photocopying,sends faxes,types letters and dials the phone."
He completely reorganized the office:instead of walls,they have plants at Semco,so bosses can"t shut themselves away from everyone else. And the workers are free to decorate their workspace as they want. As for uniforms,some people wear suits and others wear T-shirts.
Semco has flexible (灵活的)working hours:the employees decide when they need to arrive at work. Also,Semco lets its workers use the company"s machines for their own projects,and makes them take holidays for at least thirty days a year.
It sounds perfect,but does it work? The answer is in the numbers:in the last six years,Semco"s revenues (收入)have gone from $35 million to $212 million. The company has grown from eight hundred employees to 3,000. Why?
Semler says it"s because of "peer pressure". Peer pressure makes employees work hard for everyone else. If someone isn"t doing his job well,the other workers will not allow the situation to continue. In other words,Ricardo Semler treats his workers like adults rather than children, and expects them to act like responsible adults. And they do.
小题1:Why did Semler change the way he and his employees worked?
A.Because he went crazy because of overwork.
B.Because he had to receive treatment in hospital.
C.Because his father asked him to.
D.Because the doctor warned him of the danger of overwork.
小题2:Semler made a variety of changes in his company Except that__________.
A.the number of the employees is reduced to save money
B.the employees can take only 30 days off for holiday every year.
C.flexible working hours were introduced
D.the employees enjoyed a lot of freedom
小题3:What’s the main idea of Paragraph five?
A.Ricardo Semler’s new management method succeeded.
B.Ricardo Semler’s idea sounded perfect but not practical.
C.The company earned a lot of money.
D.The reason for his success.
小题4:In his company, what does Ricardo Semler value most?

He is talent and charm(魅力) have made him the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world. He played in the grand Beijing Olympic opening ceremony last summer, watched by a TV audience of 5 billion.
Lang Lang, 26, is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world’s top orchestras, making his debut at the Carnegie Hall in New York at 18, while still a student.
Lang Lang’s charm and fondness for sharp clothes make him a natural fit to represent(代表)China’s new international image. According to the British newspaper the Times, “The Lang Lang effect” is responsible for driving 36 million Chinese children to learn the piano.
Now in China children are learning Chopin(肖邦) and Western orchestras are touring Chinese cities, but can China ever export(出口)its own music to the west? Lang is trying. His cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestras this month includes a performance of Dragon Songs, an album of traditional Chinese classics.
Behind the international recognition, however, is a fascinating story of a gifted child. Lang grew up with his father’s own musical ambition and high expectations. It is not hard to imagine how boring it must be to practice the piano every day. Lang said that he once hated his hands and the piano. He injured his right hand six years ago and had to rest. “That was the best month,” he says, without hesitation. “I had a date. I saw a Broadway show and saw Britney Spears in concert.”
小题1:Which of the following is NOT the reason why Lang Lang is the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world?
A.He played in the Beijing Olympic opening ceremony last summer.
B.He has as many as 5 billions fans in China.
C.He is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world’s top orchestras.
D.He plays the piano so well and has a good international image.
小题2:The underlined word “debut” in the second paragraph probably means____.
A.first classB.first performanceC.first planD.first choice
小题3:Which of the following statements about Lang is true?
A.He has 36 million Chinese students in China.
B.He is touring China giving concerts.
C.He is trying to export Chinese music to western countries.
D.He only played traditional Chinese classics in his cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestra.
小题4:From the last paragraph we can infer _____.
A.Lang didn’t like his father when he was little
B.he was happy to practice the piano everyday
C.his father’s desire and expectations played an important role in his childhood
D.he injured his right hand on purpose six years ago

When I was a law professor, a student reported that I made an error in grading his exam by giving him too many points. He was ______ and after thanking him for his honesty, I changed the ______ in my records. His beaming (欢笑的) face turned to _____. “You’re lowering my grade?” he said angrily. “I would never have come in ______ ……”
He didn’t finish the ______, but it was obvious that his display of honesty was false. He thought he’d have it all—praise and the ______ grade.
Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade ______ because all I’d accomplished was to discourage him from being ______ in the future. And every time I tell this ______, some people agree with this remark.
But I can’t see how I could give good ______ for worsening my mistake in grading by undermining (损害) the honesty of all my grades by failing to ______ an error. The grade itself would be a dishonest ______ of his knowledge and it would have been ______to other students. How could I possibly give a student a gift of an_____ grade?
I know ______ reporting an error in one’s favor is unusual, but, like ______ extra change, it’s clearly the right thing to do. People of character, those with real honesty, hate to give up benefits as ______ as anyone else. The difference is that for them a good conscience and reputation is ______enough to give reason for the cost of doing the right thing.
Perhaps lowering the student’s grade did ______ him from being honest in the future, but bribing (贿赂) him to be honest so that he does the right thing when it’s cost-free would have ______him even more. The duty to be honest is about right and wrong, not risks and rewards.

As we all know, getting benched in sports is usually a bad thing. But at one school in Florida, a girl has taken a bench and turned it into something entirely different – a place to find friends. It’s called the Friendship Bench. And it’s the brainchild of a sixth grader at Palm Bay Elementary – a girl named Acacia Woodley.
Acacia’s attitude toward life might be summed up best by a question she recently asked members of the Brevard County School Board – “what if we spend as much time putting the spotlight on kindness as we do on cruelty?” It’s a philosophy Acacias has learned to live her own life -despite having a lot of people would consider a handicap. She was born without a right hand. And her left hand did not form properly. But Acacia says that she has not stopped her from achieving her goals. “You need to believe in your dreams. If you don’t believe in you dreams, I can definitely tell you that they are not going to come true.” She said.
Acacia came up with the idea for the Friendship Bench after seeing kids getting bullied at school. She says she has also experienced bullying herself – kids whispering about her or picking on her because she is different. “Some people say they feel sorry for me. I tell them not to,” she said. “I don’t care that I’m different. I like being different.”
The Friendship Bench looks like a lot of other benches. It has arm sets and a place to lean on. But there are also words painted on it – words such as “hope”, “respect”, “listen” and “dream”. Acacia put the benches together with the help from her mother and brother.
Any time a kid feels he or she needs a friend, all that kid needs to do is sit on the bench. It is then up to the other kids – or grown-ups – to fill that need. “It’s a perfect idea,” Palm Bay Elementary Principal Lori said. “It’s something we’ve needed so badly.”
The Friendship Bench has been such a success at Palm Bay Elementary that other schools are now interested in installing one too. “There’s a saying in my teacher’s classroom,” Acacia said. “It says, ‘it you can dream it, you can achieve it.’”
小题1:What is the function of the first sentence in Paragraph One?
A.To explain the meaning of getting benched is sports.
B.To introduce the important role “bench” plays in sports.
C.To introduce what the author wants to say in the text to us.
D.To tell us that the passage is connected with the word “bench”.
小题2:What can be learned about Acacia from the passage?
A.She is disabled but leads an active life.
B.She has a deep understanding of life.
C.She finds it difficult to achieve her goals.
D.She finds herself always in need of help.
小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Acacia has also suffered from other kids’ bullying.
B.The kids who sit on the bench feel they need friends.
C.Grown-ups are allowed to offer their help to the one in need.
D.The Friendship Bench is different from others in the arm sets.
小题4:What can we infer from the passage?
A.More Friendship Benches will be installed in other schools soon.
B.Students stop bullying other schoolmates at Palm Bay Elementary.
C.The students at Palm Bay Elementary have become more friendly.
D.Acacia has become a very important figure at Palm Bay Elementary.
