17．______such heavy pollution already，it may now be too late to clean up the river.
A．Having suffered B．Suffering

24．With his son ______，the old man felt unhappy.

A
What Are Y ou Crying for?
Robert and Peter study in the same university.They do everything together and help each other.But they often play jokes on each other.
The school year was over last month and they decided to travel through the country in America.They drove a car and could stop wherever they wanted.Of course they enjoyed themselves.It was very hot one day and they were both hungry and thirsty.They stopped in front of a restaurant by the road.They came in，sat down at a table and ordered some dishes.Robert looked around and found there was a small bowl on the table.He thought there was some ice cream in it and took a spoonful of it and put it into his mouth.Immediately he knew it was mustard(芥末)，but it was too late.Tears ran down his face，but he pretended nothing had happened.The other young man，seeing his friend crying，asked，“What are you crying for，Robert？〞
“I'm thinking of my father who was han ged twenty years ago，〞was a reply.
After a while Peter made the same mistake.Tears ran down his cheeks(脸颊)，too.And his friend asked him why.
“I wonder why your father hadn't been hanged before he got married！〞
46．Robert took a spoonful of mustard because______.
A．it was free
B．he thought it was ice cream

A．Robert's father would be hanged earlier.
B．It was wrong to play a joke on a friend.
C．He must give his friend a lesson.
D．His friend wouldn't be born.
答案：
46．B提示：此题考查细节事实。

Robert吃芥末的原因不是他喜欢吃芥末，而是他错误地把它当作了冰淇淋。

47．A提示：此题考查细节推理。

Robert和Peter喜欢开对方的玩笑；Robert不告诉Peter 真相的真正原因是——他想戏弄Peter，让他犯同样的错误。

48．B提示：此题考查细节事实。

两个人当时都又饿又渴，在Robert不说真相的情况下，Peter也就尝了芥末，犯了同样的错误。

49．B提示：此题考查推理能力。

Peter被辣得流泪，他非常地生气，为Robert不提前
告诉他事实真相而气恼，故Peter的目的是暗示Robert不该戏弄自己。

B
Foolish or Clever
Mr Wang lived in a small mountain village.He had an old small house，but it was wet when it rained.And it was going to fall down.Neither his wife nor his son would live in it.So he decided to build a new one.He sent his son to cut down some bamboo in the mountains.The young man went there.But he didn't know where the bamboo grew.With a peasant's help，he found it in the forest.He was hungry and thirsty and sat down on a stone by the river.At last he cut down some and carried it home.When he got to the gate，he couldn't go in.He had to knock at the door.His mother heard it and came out to meet him.
“The bamboo is too long，but the gate is too narrow，〞said the young man.“I can't carry it in at all.〞
The woman thought for a while and said，“Well，I'll stand on the enclosing wall and you hand it to me.Then we'll carry it in easily.〞
“That's a good idea！〞the young man called out.
The woman put a ladder against the wall and was climbing up when her husband saw it.The man asked what she was going to do.The woman told him all proudly.But he became angry and found a saw and sawed all the bamboo into pieces and then took them in.He said，“How foolish you are！〞
50．Mr Wang decided to build a new house because ______.
A．the old one was small
B．the old one was wet
C．it was dangerous to live in the old one
D．the old one was too small for them to live in
51．The young man was hungry because ______.
A．he went to the mountains without breakfast
B．it took him a lot of time to find the bamboo
C．he worked hard that day
D．nobody helped him
52．The young man didn't know ______，so he began to knock at the door.
A．where to put the bamboo
B．if the bamboo was measured
C．if his parents would help him
D．how to go in through the gate with the bamboo
53．The woman thought ______，so she told him all proudly.
A．her husband would praise her
B．her husband would do the work instead of her
C．her husband would saw the bamboo into pieces
D．her husband would help their son
答案：
50．C提示：房子破旧矮小又漏雨，而且将倒塌，妻子和儿子都不愿住在里面(可见文中第一段：Neither his wife nor his son would live in it.)，当然是感觉到住在里面危险了。

51．B提示：儿子进了山而不知竹子在哪生长(可见第一段：But he didn't know where the bamboo grew.)。

后来在别人的帮助下(可见第一段：with a peasant's help)，终于在树林中找到竹子，应当选B项。

52．D提示：竹子扛到门口，发现门小竹子长，无法进去(见第一段：When he got to the gate，he couldn't go in.)，只好敲门告诉家里人请他们出来帮助(见文中第二段：The bamboo is too long...I can't carry it in at all.)
53．A提示：自己这么聪明，替儿子解决了竹子进不了门的大难题，理应受到丈夫的表扬。

因此这位妇女显得很骄傲(见该文最后一段：The woman told him all proudly.)。

C
Not many years ago，a wealthy and rather strange old man named Johnson lived alone in a village in the south of England.He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries.When he was seventy-five，he gave ￡12 000 to the village school to buy land and equipment(设备)for a children's playground.
As a result of his kindness，many people came to visit him.Among them was a newspaperman.During their talk，Johnson remarked that he was seventy-five and expected to live to be a hundred.The newspaperman asked him how he managed to be healthy at seventy-five.Johnson had a sense of humor.He liked whisky(威士忌酒)and drank some each day.“I have an injection(注
射)in my neck each evening，〞he told the newspaperman，thinking of his evening glass of whisky.
The newspaperman did not understand what Johnson meant.In his newspaper he reported that Johnson was seventy-five and had a daily injection in his neck.Within a week Johnson received thousands of letters from all over Britain，asking him for the secret of his daily injection.
54．Johnson became a rich man through ______.
A．doing business B．making whisky
C．cheating D．buying and selling land
55．The gift of money to the school suggests that Johnson ______.
A．had no children
B．was a strange man
C．was very fond of children
D．wanted people to know how rich he was
56．Many people wrote to Johnson to find out ______.
A．what kind of whisky he had
B．how to live longer
C．how to become wealthy
D．in which part of the neck to have an injection
57．The newspaperman ______.
A．should have reported what Johnson had told him
B．shouldn't have asked Johnson what injection he had
C．was eager to live a long life
D．should have found out what Johnson really meant
答案：
54．A提示：文章第一段第二句说他在对外贸易中赚了很多钱，可知他是通过同外国做生意而成为富人的，因此选项A为最优答案。

55．C提示：文章第一段提到在他75岁那年，他给村里的小学捐助了12 000英镑为孩子们买土地建操场、购置设备；第二段第一句话又说由于他的善良很多人来拜访他，由此可见他是一个善良的人，为孩子们建操场、购置设备，说明他很喜欢孩子。

56．D提示：文章第三段里谈到记者没有明白约翰逊的意思，他在报纸上报道说约翰逊
75岁了而且每天都在脖子上注射。

一周内，约翰逊收到了来自英国各地的数千封信，问他每天注射的秘诀。

因此可见，人们写信给约翰逊是因为记者的错误报道。

因为当时记者没有明白约翰逊的真正意思，就错误地理解为他健康的原因是他每天向脖子上注射，人们当然想了解他是怎么注射的了。

57．D提示：文章第二段里说约翰逊很有幽默感，他喜欢威士忌酒，并且每天都喝点。

想到每天晚上那杯威士忌，他告诉记者说他每天晚上都在脖子上注射。

记者当时没有理解他的幽默，约翰逊的实际意思就是每天晚上喝杯威士忌。

如果记者当时明白了，人们看到报道后就不会写信问他注射的秘诀了。

D
The easy way out isn't always the easiest.I learned that lesson when I decided to treat Doug，my husband of one month，to a special meal.I glanced through my cook-book and chose a menu which included homemade bread.Knowing the bread would take time，I started on it as soon as Doug left for work.As I was not experienced in cooking，I thought if a dozen was good，two dozen would be better，so I doubled everything.As Doug loved oranges，I also opened a can of orange and poured it all into the bowl.Soon there was a sticky dough(面团) covered with ugly yellowish marks.Realizing I had been defeated，I put the dough in the rubbish bin(垃圾箱) outside so I wouldn't have to face Doug laughing at my work.I went on preparing the rest of the meal，and，when Doug got home，we sat down to Cornish chicken with rice.He tried to enjoy the meal but seemed disturbed(打扰的)．Twice he got up and went outside，saying he thought he heard a noise.The third time he left，I went to the window to see what he was doing.Looking out，I saw Doug standing about three feet from the rubbish bin，holding the lid(盖子) up with a stick and looking into the container.When I came out of the house，he dropped the stick and explained that there was something alive in our rubbish bin.Picking up the stick again，he held the lid up enough for me to see.I felt cold.But I stepped closer and looked harder.Without doubt it was my work.The hot sun had caused the dough to double in size and the fermenting yeast(酵母) made the surface shake and sigh(叹息) as though it were breathing.It looked like some unknown being from outer space.I could see why Doug was so shaken.I had to admit(承认) what the ‘living thing’ was and why it was there.I don't know who was more embarrassed(尴尬) by the whole thing—Doug or me.
58．The writer's purpose in writing this story is ______.
A．to tell an interesting experience
B．to show the easiest way out of a difficulty
C．to describe the trouble facing a newly married woman
D．to explain the difficulty of learning to cook from books
59．Why did the woman's attempt(尝试) at making the bread turn out to be unsuccessful?
A．The canned orange had gone bad.
B．She didn't use the right kind of flour.
C．The cookbook was hard to understand.
D．She did not follow the directions closely.
60．Why did the woman put the dough in the rubbish bin?
A．She didn't see the use of keeping it.
B．She meant to joke with her husband.
C．She didn't want her husband to see it.
D．She hoped it would soon dry in the sun.
答案：
58．A提示：从故事的发生和开展可知，作者写作的目的是在讲述一个有趣的故事。

59．D提示：从“As I was not experience in cooking，I thought if a dozen was good，two dozen would be better，so I doubled everything.〞可知，她没有按照书上的说明进展烹调。

60．C提示：从“Realizing I had been defeated，I put the dough in the rubbish bin outside so I wouldn't have to face Doug laughing at my work.〞可知，她把面团放入垃圾箱的目的是不想让她丈夫看到她所做的事。

书面表达
Dear_editor，
I'm_a_student_in_Senior_Three.We_have_made_a_survey—“Who_do_you_turn_to_when_in_ trouble？〞_Here_are_the_results.
Most of the students will go to their classmates or friends when in trouble.They're almost of the same age，so they can talk with and understand each other easily.Some students will tell their teachers or parents about their troubles and ask for their help as the teachers and parents have rich experience and love them very much.They can be trusted by these students.Only a few students solve their problems all by themselves.They hate to talk with others and can't get on well with others.They have few friends.
In my opinion，when in trouble we'd better ask our teachers，parents，friends or classmates for help.Different people have different experiences.And they are likely to help you out of the troubles.Then you can remove some of your difficulties and feel relaxed.
Thank you.Best wishes!
Yours，
Li_Hua。
