解析

试题分析:
小题1:.B support是“抚养;维持”之意,keep是“保持”;hold意为“容纳”;而live on表示“以……为食”,都不符合句意。
小题2:.A 他们从未像我在书中读到,或在电视中看到的那样有浪漫的举止。
小题3:D 这句话意为“更不用说在情人节送花这样的事了”。send flowers是“送花”。
小题4:.C 根据句意,此处表示“不可能”,用out of the question;out of question是“没问题”。
小题5:.A 我静静地看着她。
小题6:.B 由上句中的silently,可以判断此处应是in a low voice,才能符合语境。
小题7:.D 听了“我”的问题,母亲应该是感到“惊讶”。
小题8:.A 上文是she raised her head,所以then she bowed her head and continue,bow表示“低下”;选项C的形式不对,应是hung;lower有“使……低下”之意,所以都可排除。
小题9:.C 由上文Sometimes it appears, but …,所以此处要用disappear。
小题10:.B 这些线使被子坚固耐用。lasting是形容词,表示“耐用的”。
小题11:.C 如果生活就像一床被子,那么爱就是其中的线。
小题12:.D 此处意为“爱是内在的”,已经由谈论线和被子升华的了“爱”上。
小题13:.B 两个人应该用“both”。
小题14:.A 母亲都会搀扶着父亲在乡村的小路上漫步。
小题15:.C 父亲从未如此温和过。careful只是表示“细心”,不符合句意。
小题16:.D 此句意为“这一切形成了一幅世间最美好的画面”,make up是“构成,组成”之意;come up是“出现”;turn up是“露面”;call up是“打电话”,都可以排除。
小题17:.B 说实话,我喜欢与***妈一块散步的感觉。on the contrary是“相反地”,不符合句意。
小题18:.B read有“读懂”之意,而watch和observe都表示“观察”,可以排除。
小题19:.A once意为“从前,曾经,一度”。
小题20:.D 此句意为“但是经历了这些后,我理解了……”,experience表示“经历;阅历”。选项中的matter表示“(抽象的)事情”,所以可以排除。
点评:本文用父母之间的例子告诉我们什么是真正的爱?爱不是鲜花。爱是用行动来表示的。爱就是妈妈手中的线,在被子里若隐若现。答题前一定要读懂全文,弄清文章要表达的思想,注意前后段落之间的关系。答题中,一定要认真分析,注意选项与上下文的关系,与前后单词的关系。对于一时没有太大的把握的题可以放到最后再来完成,因为有时答案可以从下文内容体现出来。答完后再通读一篇文章,看看所选选项能不能是语句通顺,语意连贯。
举一反三

If practicing an attitude of gratitude(感激) during the storms of life is too much for you right now, that’s OK. When things are tough, most people have a hard time being thankful. They"re so caught up in what"s wrong in the present moment that they simply can"t see some things are still right.
If that"s true for you, then accept it. You"re going through a particularly difficult or unhappy period of time, and don"t like it one bit. Very normal, very human. But remember this: there is always something to be grateful for. It may be only a small comfort right no, but it is a start. Make a list of some of the terrible things that didn"t happen. For example:
       You"re in debt... but you"re not homeless.
       You lost your job... but you didn"t lose your health.
       You broke your leg... but you didn"t break your neck.
        Your mother has Alzheimers disease... but your father doesn"t.
No matter how bad things are, they could always be worse. Start finding gratitude for what might have happened, but didn"t. It does help a lot. Of course, you may not be thankful for everything- but you can always be thankful for something.
小题1:How many "terrible things that didn"t happen" are listed in this passage?
A.TwoB.ThreeC.FourD.Five
小题2:The writer thinks it ____ for people to feel unhappy in time of difficulty.
A.necessaryB.normalC.greatD.helpful
小题3:.What is the purpose of this passage?
A.To discuss ways to make a list of terrible things
B.To explain what is gratitude towards the storms of life.
C.To persuade people to be thankful for what didn"t happen.
D.To show people different ways to consider their tough situations.
小题4:. How is the passage organized?
A.Explanation―Comparison―Topic
B.Argument―Opinion―Discussion
C.Comparison―Argument―Explanation
D.Introduction―Discussion―Conclusion

The "Occupy Wall Street" movement gained more support on Wednesday as unions and students joined in. With the protests developing from a group of young people"s camping out near the New York Stock Exchange on September 17 to large-scale (大规模的) movements across the country and around the world, people can"t help asking: What has led to "Occupy Wall Street?"
Three years after the severe economic crisis, the U.S. economy now is stuck again. Protesters are not satisfied with the present economic situation since unemployment rate is above 9 percent and economic growth has slowed. The housing market is still struggling for a recovery three years after the bubble (泡沫) burst. People are losing their houses even after they have paid a large amount of mortgage(抵押). It is getting difficult for young people to find jobs. People feared that a similar crisis like the one in 2008 may be already on its way.
It is Wall Street that possessed the most riches. It is Wall Street greed that, at least partly, led to the financial crisis in 2008. It was Wall Street"s "fat cats" who take taxpayers" aid money as their own big bonus (奖金). With the growing economic crisis around the world, people realize that Wall Street is responsible for it. So they try to target people who created the crisis.
The majority of the protesters are young people under 30. Many of them are unemployed. Some are students with mountains of loans (贷款). Some are hard-working people about to lose their houses even if they have paid a large amount of mortgage. They are complaining that the hard-working middle class is getting poor, yet Wall Street stays wealthy.
William Cohan, author of Money and Power: How Goldman Sachs Came to Rule the world, wrote recently that Wall Street not only learned nothing from the 2008 crisis, they are also trying to kill all reforms that might "break this dangerous cycle in which bankers get very rich while the rest of working people suffer from their mistakes."

B.The demand of the protesters of the “Occupy Wall Street” movement.

小题2:. According to the second paragraph, what set off the “Occupy Wall Street” movement?
A.The housing market.B.The bad economic situation.
C.The mortgageD.The high unemployment rate.
小题3:. We can learn from the passage that Wall Street is the symbol of          in the USA.

For six hours we shot through the landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa. Just rocks
and sand and baking sun. Knowing our journey was ending, Daniel and I just wanted to remember all we had seen and done. He used a camera. I used words. I had already finished three notebooks and was into the fourth, a beautiful leather notebook I’d bought in a market in Mozambique.
Southern Africa was full of stories. And visions. We were almost drunk on sensations. The roaring of the water at Victoria Falls, the impossible silence of the Okavango Delta in Botswana . And then the other things: dogs in the streets, whole families in Soweto living in one room, a kilometre from clean water.
As we drove towards the setting sun, a quietness fell over us. The road was empty -- we  hadn’t seen another car for hours. And as I drove, something caught my eye, something moving   next to me. I glanced in the mirror of the car; I glanced sideways to the right, and that was when I saw them. Next to us, by the side of the road, thirty, forty wild horses were racing the car, a cloud of dust rising behind them -- brown, muscular horses almost close enough to touch them, to   smell their hot breath. I didn’t know how long they had been there next to us.
I shouted to Dan: “Look!”, but he was in a deep sleep, his camera lying useless by his feet.   They raced the car for a few seconds, then disappeared far behind us, a memory of heroic forms   in the red landscape. When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.
“Wild horses?” he said. “Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“I tried. But they were gone after a few seconds.”
“Are you sure you didn’t dream it?”
“You were the one who was sleeping!”
Typical, he said. “The best photos are the ones we never take.”
We checked into a dusty hotel and slept the sleep of the dead.
小题1: During their journey in Africa, the two travelers______.
A.made friends with local residents
B.complained about the poor living conditions
C.enjoyed the sunset in the Karoo desert most
D.recorded their experiences in different ways
小题2: What did Daniel think when he woke up and was told what had happened?
A.He always missed out on the best thing.
B.He had already taken beautiful pictures.
C.A sound sleep was more important.
D.The next trip would be better.
小题3: What is the passage mainly about?
A.How to view wildlife in Africa.
B.Running into wildlife in Africa.
C.Tourist attractions in southern Africa.
D.Possible dangers of travelling in the desert.
