2. Most of us have lost our wallet at some stage in our lives. But few would imagine having it returned after a nearly seven﹣decade gap. Edward Parker dropped his wallet in 1950 into an inaccessible spot behind a bookshelf, while working as an
electrician, repairing World War Two bomb damage in the palace. The wallet stayed there until this year when a builder, doing some restoration work, finally found it.
The wallet is a time capsule. Its leather and webbing has long ago started to
________. But it contains numerous pictures of family, invoices (发票), receipts, old union cards, results of a chest X﹣ray (sent to him in 1948, the same year as the NHS was founded), a national service card dated 9 December 1944 and a medical insurance card. His business cards﹣E Parker, Electrical Contractor﹣seem almost
original. Reflecting the typical methods of contact of the time, they have an address but no telephone number.
A month ago I was speaking a press officer Lambeth Palace and he mentioned that the wallet had just been handed in. We thought it might be nice to try and work out whose it was and give it back to the family. Edward Parker is a pretty common name, but his medical card contained two places of residence﹣Poets Road and Springdale Road in north London. From this, Islington Council were able to find details of a marriage between Edward Parker and Constance Butler in 1947.
That information was enough to work out that he was still alive and in a care home in Essex, so I went to visit him. Now 89, Edward has dementia (痴呆), but he was clearly happy to get the wallet and in particular, the photographs back. He pointed out pictures of his mother and father, his brother, his cousins and his wife Constance, who was with him when I visited. He hadn't seen a picture of his father since he lost the
wallet, Constance, 90, says.
(1)We can possibly infer that Edward Parker________.
A once worked as electrical technician
B always lost his wallet
C once participated in World War II
D once worked as a restoration builder.
(2)What's the main idea of the second paragraph?________
A The material of the wallet.
B The producer of the wallet.
C The contents of the wallet.
D The shape of the wallet..
(3)What does the underlined word "disintegrate" in the second paragraph mean?________ A Maintain. B Damage. C Disappear. D Destroy..
(4)What plays a key role in returning the wallet to its owner?________
A Business card.
B National service card.
C Old union card.
D Medical card.
3. The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists (人类学
家). Descriptions like "Paleolithic (旧石器时代) Man", "Neolithic (新石器时代)Man", etc., neatly sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twenty﹣first century, they will surely choose the label "Legless Man". Histories of the time will go something like this: "In the twenty﹣first
century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. And the surprising thing is that they didn't use their legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski﹣lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were mined by the presence of large car parks."
The future history books might also record that we lost the right of using our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird's﹣eye view of the world or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to
get in your way. When you travel by car or train, the unclear picture of the countryside constantly slides over the window. When you mention the most impressive place﹣names
in the world, the typical 21st century traveler always says "I've been there." ﹣ meaning "I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else."
When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you skip all experience. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his
eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.
(1)Anthropologists name man nowadays "Legless Man" because________.
A people prefer using modem traffic
B lifts prevent people from walking
C people use their legs less and less
D people travel without using legs.
(2)According to the passage, what might make people lose the right of using their eyes?________
A The modem means of transportation.
B A bird's﹣eye view of the
world. C The unclear sight from the vehicles. D The fast﹣paced life style..
(3)From the passage, we know traveling at high speeds means________.
A appreciating beautiful scenery
B focusing on the next destination
C experiencing skilled adventures
D feeling physical tiredness.
(4)What does the author intend to tell us?________
A Human's history develops very fast.
B Traveling makes the world
small. C Modem transportation devices have replaced legs. D The best way to travel is on foot.
4. There is no doubt that the United States has entered a brand new age, because Donald
Trump, the country's 45th president, is very different from any president before
him. Unlike Hillary Clinton, his opponent, and most former US presidents, who entered the election after years of being politicians, Trump, 70, was a New York real estate businessman (房地产商). And he was not a presidential candidate who worked hard to keep a perfect public image of a man who was always caring, fair and wise.
Instead, Trump is famous for being bad﹣tempered, arrogant and hateful toward ________ who disagree with him. He also hates immigrants, both from Latin America and the Middle East, for many problems in the US. This has caused a dangerous division in the country ﹣a country made up of many various races.
But to his supporters, the fact that Trump is not a typical politician is actually one of his advantages. His habit of never hiding his opinions is also considered by many to be a sign that he is not ________ like many politicians are.
"We have seen our country take a downturn in the eyes of the world. We need to go in a different direction, " Binyomin Weisswasser, 39, a man from Chicago, told the Chicago Tribune. "Trump's not a politician…I like that he is not always politically correct and speaks his mind. It gives me the feeling that what you see is what you get. You may not like
it, but you know what it is."
But interestingly, many who elected Trump actually followed the "lesser of two evils" principle ﹣ one that people use when faced with picking from two unpleasant options ﹣simply because they didn't think Clinton was a better choice.
"He's the candidate I disagree less with, " Jack Stucky, 20, a student at Norwestern University, told the Chicago Tribune. "I don't think I'd say Donald Trump is going to be the best president ever, but I did think he'd be better than Hillary Clinton."
It's true that the US is entering a new age. It's just not clear what kind of age it's going to be.
(1)The underlined words "a hypocrite" is closely related in meaning to________.
A a cruel person
B a caring person
C a dishonest person
D a reliable person.
(2)What kind of president is Donald Trump in the eyes of his supporters?________
A He is respected by the whole nation.
B He is daring to speak his mind.
C He is not hot﹣tempered and hateful.
D is a typical politician..
(3)What does the underlined word "those" in paragraph 2 refer to?________
A Immigrants
B opponents
C politicians
D supporters.
(4)What's the main idea of the passage?________
A It explores the advantages Trump has over Hillary in the election.
B It reports about people's different views on Trump's victory in the election.
C It predicts what changes Trump will bring to the US.
D It analyzes the reasons for Trump's victory in the election.

I still remember an incident which happened last year. In a sunny spring morning, I was walking to school while someone called out, "Look! A cat!" I looked up and notice a little cat trembling in a tree. Obviously the cat could climb up the tree, but they didn't dare to get down. We called to ask the kitty come down, however, it was so frightened to move. The girl wanted to call 119, but I said, "The fireman are busy enough. Let me do it." I climbed up the tree and slow approached the cat. Finally, I caught it and got down. I was so delighted for what I had done. Care for small animals is our duty, do you think so?

I still remember an incident which happened last year.In a sunny spring morning, I was walking to school while someone called out, "Look! A cat!" I looked up and notice a little cat trembling in a tree. Obviously the cat could climb up the tree, but they didn't dare to get down.We called to ask the kitty∧ come down, however, it was so frightened to move.The girl wanted to call 119, but I said, "The fireman are busy enough. Let me do it." I climbed up the tree and slow approached the cat. Finally, I caught it and got down. I was so delighted for what I had done.Care for small animals is our duty, do you think so?
解析:
1.In→ On.考查介词的用法.在表示时间上,in表示一个较长的时间段,如年,月,季节等,还可以泛指上午,下午,晚上;此处表示在具体的某一天的上午,应用介词on.故将In改为On.
2.while→ when.考查连接词的用法.be doing sth.when…正在干某事,(这时)另一件事情发生,常用句式.故将while改为when.
3.notice→ noticed.考查动词的时态.本文整体时态为一般过去时,讲述过去的事情,本句中and连接并列的谓语动词.故将notice改为noticed.
4.they→ it.考查代词的用法.此处代指名词the cat,单数概念,故将they改为it.5.在kitty后面加to.考查非谓语动词.ask sb. to do要求某人干某事.故在kitty后面加to.
6.so→ too.考查副词的用法.too…to太…以至于不,固定搭配.故将so改为too.7.The→ A.考查冠词的用法.girl女孩在这里是第一次出现,应用不定冠词a.故将The 改为A.
8.fireman→ firemen.考查名词的数.根据谓语动词are可知,主语为复数名词.故将fireman改为firemen.
9.slow→ slowly.考查形容词副词的用法区别.slow是形容词,通常修饰名词;此处修饰动词approached,应用副词形式.故将slow改为slowly.
10.Care→ Caring.考查非谓语动词.Care for small animals是句子的主语部分,所以care应该用动词的ing形式作主语,表示一件已知的事或经验.故将Care 改为Caring.9. To be honest, I terribly desire to participate in the activity.,Using smart phones in schools, on one hand, can greatly bring much convenience in our daily life and make us students keep abreast with any newest information we need. On the other hand, smart phones are depriving us of our face﹣to﹣face communication skills. Therefore, I'm keenly supportive of such a Saturday, when I plan to get some outdoor exercise and help my parents with some housework. In addition, I can hopefully do some reading of books in a peaceful atmosphere.,To the best of my belief, it is so significant an activity for us students, so I am determined to share it with my classmates, calling on them all to
passionately participate in it.,Yours,,Li Hua。
