A
When Robert Sabuda was eight years old, he looked through a book in his dentist's office and turned the pages quickly. Then he was transported to another dimension (维度) — the three-dimensional world of pop-ups (立体活动图). The book was heavier, thicker — unlike any book he had ever seen. It took his breath away. “When I opened it, I was shocked and pleased when something jumped right off the page，”says Sabuda. “I forgot all about the dentist.” But he never forgot about pop­ups.
Robert's family and friends began to give him pop-up books for gifts. He took them apart and put them back together to see how they worked. Before long, he began making his own pop-up books and giving them as gifts.
With each pop-up creation, Robert improved his pop-up engineering skills and discovered the value of failing.
“With each failure.” Sabuda says, “I learned a better solution, one that I wouldn't have ever imagined.”
Clearly, Sabuda was on to something special. One of his high school art teachers, Mrs. Lucas, took a special interest in his abilities.
“She taught me how to draw, paint, and make prints，” says Sabuda.
Mrs. Lucas also helped him go to the Pratt Institute, a famous art school in New Y ork City. What Sabuda learned at the Pratt Institute
allowed him to continue his exploration of three-dimensional art.
During his third year at Pratt, Sabuda took a summer internship (实习) at a publishing company, where he learned how children's books are created, and realized what he wanted to do. As part of his job, he opened packages containing the artwork of children's book illustrators (插图画家) such as Barbara Cooney and James Marshall.
“I decided there and then that I wanted to be a children's book illustrator，” Sabuda says. “It was something that made my heart beat faster！”
After college, jobs designing packages and coloring books started him on his way. The rest is pop-up history. If his designs excite the child inside him, Sabuda feels that kids who pick up his books will be just as excited.
语篇解读本文是记叙文。

(2014·马鞍山市高二检测)
A little homeless girl stood crying near a small church from which she had been turned away because it was too crowded. “ I can't go to Sunday school.” She cried to the priest (牧师) as he walked by. The priest took her inside. The child was very happy because they found a room for her. She went to bed that night thinking of the children who had no place to sleep or pray in.
Two years later, the girl died there. As her little body was being moved, a worn and red purse was found, which she had found in the rubbish. Inside the purse was 57 cents and a note, written in childish handwriting,
which read ：“This is to help make the little church bigger so more children can go to Sunday school.”
After the priest tearfully read that note, he told the story of her unselfish love and devotion (热爱) to others. Soon, a newspaper reported on it. It was read by a wealthy man who offered the church a piece of land worth many thousands of dollars. When told that the church could not pay much, he offered to sell it to the little church for 57 cents. Soon, the church collected a large amount of money. Within five years, the girl's gift had increased to $250,000. When you are in the city of Philadelphia, visit Temple Baptist Church, Temple University, and the Sunday school building. No child here is left outside on Sunday school days again. One of the rooms of the Sunday school building is hanged with the picture of the sweet face of the little girl whose 57 cents made such a remarkable and real history.
4．How did the girl feel when she thought of other homeless kids?
A. Joyful.
B. Lucky.
C. Sympathetic.

由文章第一段最后一句可知小女孩同情其他无家可归的儿童。

5．The author's purpose of writing this passage is probably to ________.
A. tell people to give money to the church mentioned in the article
B. try to make people remember that little girl and that priest forever
C. look forward to having more people to go to the church to pray for the best
D. express admiration to the little girl showing her unselfish love to others
答案与解析D写作目的题。

C
Qi Baishi (1863～1957) is one of the best-known contemporary Chinese artists. His life shows he achieved success by combining talent with hard work.
He was born in a peasant family. At 11 he was sent to learn carpentry (木匠活). Through his work he got to know some local scholars. One of them, Hu Shenyuan, offered to teach him painting and poetry. During this period he earned his living by painting portraits and selling his works. Gradually he developed a reputation as an artist as well as a carpenter. In those years he devoted himself to poetry, calligraphy (书法), and seal-carving. Although he admitted he was a versatile (多才多艺的) artist,
his own criteria (标准) of his successes placed poetry first, seal-carving second, calligraphy third, and painting last.
From 1902 to 1916, Qi toured the country five times, and he left his footmarks in many cities, such as Beijing and Hongkong. The trips broadened his vision and changed his style. In 1917 he settled down in Beijing, where he met many artists and scholars, and made friends with Chen Shizeng. Chen advised him not to imitate early masters and to form his own style.
Through long years of practice, Qi Baishi evolved a distinctive personal style. The subjects of his painting were wide and various, and the flowers, birds, fish, prawns (虾), and insects he painted are most admired by his public. To improve his technique of painting prawns, he raised some at home and frequently observed their movements. He wrote in his diary about how he had changed his method of painting prawns: “At first my prawns owned a reasonable similarity, then they became even more realistic, and finally light and dark colors became properly contrasted. These are the three changes.” Qi Baishi was able to portray the same object in either the xieyi or the gongbi style. When he painted a dragonfly in a detailed manner, he even drew the veins (翅膀) in its wings. When he adopted a bold, free style, he used only a few dry, expressive strokes to form it. What is fascinating about his work is that in some pictures both methods are used.
8．In his early life, what was Qi Baishi famous for?
A. Painting.
B. Poetry.
C. Calligraphy.
D. Seal-carving.
答案与解析B细节理解题。

由第二段“his own criteria (标准) of his successes placed poetry first，”可知在齐白石年轻时期，他是以诗歌而出名的。

9．The underlined word “imitate” in Para. 3 probably means ________.
A. steal
B. change
C. occupy
D. copy
答案与解析D词义猜测题。

由后面的“Chen advised him ... to form his own style.”可知，陈先生建议他形成自己的风格，而不要模仿早期的大师。

10．Why did Qi Baishi raise some prawns at home?
A. To improve his painting techniques.
B. To entertain himself.
C. To make money.
D. To observe how they grow up.
答案与解析A细节理解题。

由最后一段中“To improve his technique of painting prawns, he raised some at home”可知，齐白石养虾是为了提高绘画技巧。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

(2014·河南许昌五校高二检测)
No one doubts that students should study language, maths and science in high school, but some may object to the ideas that they should study art and music as well. To them, these subjects are useless for students' future and are not worth the time and effort. __11__
Art and music are precious culture legacy(遗产), which bring us pleasure and enjoyment. Have you ever been deeply moved by Beethoven's famous Fate Symphony? Have you ever been shocked by the colorful starry
night produced by Vincent van Gogh in his painting? Have you ever longed for the moving love between the Butterfly Lo v ers when you hear the well-known Chinese melody? Art and music are not only images and sounds, but something beyond them. __12__
Art and music help make students more creative. Artists and musicians are considered the most creative people in the world. It's because art and music sharpen their senses and provide a different view for them to see the world. __13__ Einstein, the greatest physician in the 20th century, as well as an excellent violin player, is a good example.
__14__ Middle school students, who typically carry heavy burdens of study, will definitely benefit from it.
__15__ They can bring students pleasure, creativity and relaxation.
A. Many great scientists benefit from art and music.
B. What benefit can art and music bring to students?
C. They are the products of passion and human wisdom.
D. I don't think we should waste time learning these subjects.
E. Enjoying art and music is also a good way to relax ourselves.
F. In a word, art and music should absolutely be included in the middle school courses.
G. In my opinion, however, it's necessary for middle school students to study art and music.

答案与解析
36．found所给词在句中作谓语，且表过去的动作，应填found。

37．better a little为比较级修饰语，故本空填good的比较级better。

38．Walking所给词在句中为非谓语动词作状语，且walk与其逻辑主语the young man为主动关系，故用现在分词形式作状语。

39．on根据句意“灯亮着”，故该空填on。

Dear editor，
I'm Li Ming of Senior Three, Guangming Middle School. I'm writing to tell you about some symptoms of anxiety among us students before exams.
____________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ 范文
Dear_editor，
I'm_Li_Ming_of_Senior_Three,_Guangming_Middle_School._I'm_wri ting_to_tell_you_about_some_symptoms_of_anxiety_among_us_students_b efore_exams.
Most of us feel nervous whenever we're taking an important exam. Some will feel dizzy or tired, some will suffer from lack of sleep, and some will lose their appetite. In fact, all these symptoms have terrible effects on our exams and we are all eager to get rid of them.
First of all, in my opinion, it's important for us to have a right attitude towards exams. They are only a means of checking how we are getting along with our studies, so there is no need to worry too much about the results. Study hard every day and make careful plans for every exam. Only in this way can we avoid suffering from the pressure of exams.
Besides, enough sleep can make us energetic and enable us to perform well in an exam. Therefore, during the period of exams, we should not stay up too late. We can also try a warm bath or a cup of warm milk before going to bed. They might help us to have a sound sleep.。
