As an 11-year-old boy, I liked baseball. I listened to baseball games on the radio. I watched them on TV. The books I read were about baseball. I took baseball cards to church in hopes of trading with other baseball card fans.
I played baseball whenever and wherever I could. If all else failed, I bounced a rubber ball off the porch stairs, imagining all kinds of wonderful things happening to me and my team. With this attitude, I entered the 1956 Little League season. I was a shortstop (游击手）.
There was a person named Gordon who moved into our neighborhood that year and signed up to play baseball. He didn’t have any baseball skills. I was relieved when the final selections were made and Gordon was assigned to another team.
After two weeks of practice, Gordon got lost . But surprisingly, my coach decided that Gordon needed to be on a team that wanted him—one that treated him with respect, one that gave everyone a fair chance to contribute according to his own ability.
Gordon joined our team. I wish I could say Gordon got the big hit in the big game with two outs in the final inning (一局）. It didn’t happen. The coach gave him extra batting practice and worked with him on his fielding, all without much improvement.
I’m not sure if Gordon learned anything from my c oach that year. I know I did. I learned a lot from my coach that summer, but my most important lessons weren’t about baseball but about character and honesty. I learned that everyone has value, whether they can hit or not.
It felt good to be on th at team that year. I’m grateful that man was my coach.
64. The text is mainly about_____ .
A. Gordon’s failure in baseball
B. the lessons in baseball
C. the winning in baseball
D. all 11-year-old boys’ dream

【解析】选A。

A. Gordon couldn’t find his home
B. Gordon got lost when practicing
C. Gordon dropped out of his team
D. Gordon joined another team
【解析】选C。

It was one of the happiest times of my life. I was 29 and had just received my bachelor’s degree, graduating with honors despite working two jobs and being a wife and mother. My parents and five-year-old son were in the audience when I
walked onto the stage at Ashland University to get my diploma. I was so excited and proud to be starting a teaching career and contributing more to my family’s well-being.
But when I got home that evening, there was a note from my husband written on the back of an envelope. It basically said he’d come to get his clothes and wouldn’t be back. We’d been having trouble, but the note still_______ . He had emptied our bank account. We were horribly in debt. I had quit my previous jobs because of an interview for a teaching position. Plus, I was eight months pregnant.
Most young women have an idealized picture of the happy-go-lucky life they’re going to live. But no one ever sits you down and says that’s not reality, and sometimes life is just ugly. I was embarrassed, scared, and angry and felt I had failed.
But I had my son, and I was about to bring a new life into the world, so despite my deep sadness, I had to go on. The next morning, I woke up, put my feet on the floor, took a deep breath, fixed breakfast, and basically did everything I always did. One small step after one small step was the way I bounced back.
And in the seven years since, I’ve continued m oving forward. I got a job as a kindergarten teacher, earned a master’s degree in education, and watched my babies grow to 12 and 7. It helped me find my voice and myself and helped me grow independent, confident, and strong.

10. _______

1. √
2. 【解析】去掉a paper是不可数名词，前面不能加不定冠词。

3. 【解析】interested→interesting sth. be interesting to sb. “某物对于某人来说很有意思”，sb. be interested in sth. “某人对某物很感兴趣”。

4. 【解析】there→it it在这里指代a round paper bag。

5. 【解析】第二个I前加did not until置于句首时，句子要用部分倒装，即将主句的谓语助动词置于主语之前。

6. 【解析】that→which note后面的逗号暗示这是一个非限制性定语从句，关系代词只能用which。

7. 【解析】has后加been present与put之间存在动宾关系，所以要用现在完成时的被动语态。

8. 【解析】Opened→Opening 动词的-ing形式作时间状语置于句首表示主动关系。

当时间状语从句的主语和主句的主语一致时，从句的主语和连词通常省略。

本句的完整形式为：When I opened the box. . . 。

9. 【解析】making→made 动词的-ed形式置于名词后面作后置定语，相当于一个省略的定语从句，即. . . I got an excellent pocket computer which was made in China. 。

10. 【解析】studied→study suggest意为“建议”时，后面的宾语从句要用虚拟语气，即“(should）+动词原形”。

The history of slavery covers many different forms of human exploitation across many cultures throughout history. 1 The pharaohs (法老）forced Jews to build their pyramids and other buildings. Many Jews died doing this work. In the Bible
there is the story of how Moses led the Jews away from Egypt, but they ended up wandering in the desert for forty years before finding their new home.
Thousands of years later, blacks were taken to America to become slaves. It started in 1619 when the Spaniards began to import slaves from Africa to America to replace Indians who had died from slave work or disease. 2
The slaves would have to work all day with no breaks. They would be punished if they disobeyed the slave driver. The slaves had to pick cotton, plow fields and farm. 3 These servants
served their owners dinner, cooked, washed floors, and took care of their owners’ children. Slaves who escaped slavery in the United States would often make their way to Canada.
The first slavery abolitionist society was founded by Anthony Boneset in 1775. 4 Years later, in 1808, the USA banned the slave trade in America, but people still carried slaves out of African countries. In 18Missouri, which was supposed to be a free state, admitted to being a slave state.
England, in 1838, abolished slavery. 5
A. Some slaves were also house servants.
B. This means they were trying to get rid of slavery.
