A Book Review—The Snake­Stone
by Berlie Doherty
The setting：Urban England (the cities)，but also rural England (the countryside) including remote English villages.
The theme：The main theme is a teena ge search of self­discovery，in this case the search for a mother from whom the hero was separated at an early age.Its other concerns are love，getting on with others，being persistent and courageous and trying to deal with doubts，troubles and worries.As the book moves to a close，James' swimming coach says to him：‘You are not like a kid obeying instructions any more.You are diving like a young man who knows where he is going.’
The characters：James is the hero of the story.He is a championship diver，and has a comfortable life with his foster parents(养父母)．Yet he also has the qualities to take him on a long journey to find his birth mother.The other characters in The Snake­Stone，James' parents，his diving instructor，best friend，the villagers，people he meets on his journey，are pictured realistically.
The turning point：The turning point in the story comes while James' foster parents are away in London，and he wonders about the identity of his birth mother.The only clue he has is a fossil，‘the snake stone’ which she left behind along with a note on which she had written，‘Take good care of Sammie.’It was written on a torn envelope with parts of an address still there.
The journey：Instead of going to London，James decides to find his birth mother.With help from his geography teacher，James sets out for the remote country village where his mother might be found.James has painful，challenging，but also humorous and happy travels.The mother he finally meets，Anne，has a minor yet powerful voice in the novel.He comes to understand why she left him at a stranger's door fifteen years before.Although the meeting is not long，it leaves him with a feeling of completeness.As a journey of self­discovery The Snake­Stone also provides its readers with a happy ending.Its hero says，on returning to his foster parents，‘I was home.’

【解析】推理判断题。

由第二段教练的话“You are not like a kid obeying instructions any more.You are diving like a young man who knows where he is going.”可知詹姆斯不像小孩，而是像一个知道自己方向的年轻人，由此可推断出他是一个独立的年轻人。

【答案】 D
3．The snake stone in the novel is ．
A．a stone with an address on it
B．a clue left by the birth mother
C．a gift from the swimming coach
D．a fossil left by the foster parents
【解析】细节理解题。

(2015·重庆高考)In ancient Egypt，a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment.Modern businesses have been following his lead，with more tactics(策略)．
One tactic involves where to display the goods.For example，stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section.They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food(垃圾食品)later in their trip.In department stores，the women's shoe section is generally next to the women's cosmetics(化妆品)section：while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe，bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.
Besides，businesses seek to appeal to customers' senses.Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping，so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day.Music sells goods，too.Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played，sales of French wines went up.
When it comes to the selling of houses，businesses also use highly rewarding tactics.They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door，and turn it into a business opportunity.A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly.When entering the house，the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows，and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level.The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

你知道现在的商家是怎么吸引顾客的吗？他们效仿古埃及店主的做法，通过对商店的环境做一些改变来吸引顾客。

5．Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?
A．To save customers time.
B．To show they are high quality foods.
C．To help sell junk food.
D．To sell them at discount prices.
【解析】细节理解题。

根据第二段的举例内容可知，商家如此摆放水果和蔬菜的目的是让先买健康食品的顾客感到高兴，这样他们稍后就会买更多的垃圾食品了。

解题时不能凭主观臆断选择答案，B项干扰性很强，商家展示自己商品的高质量是毋庸置疑的，但本文并未提及。

【答案】 C
6．According to Paragraph 3，which of the following encourages customers to buy?
A．Opening the store early in the morning.
B．Displaying British wines next to French ones.
C．Inviting customers to play music.
D．Filling the store with the smell of fresh bread.
【解析】细节理解题。

根据第三段中的．..they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day.可知，商家知道烤面包的味道对顾客的感官有诱惑力，于是他们就整天用风扇把面包味吹进商店。

【答案】 D
7．What is the California builder's story intended to prove?
A．The house structure is a key factor customers consider.
B．The more costly the house is，the better it sells.
C．An ocean view is much to the customers' taste.
D．A good first impression increases sales.
【解析】推理判断题。

最后一段中的a California builder这个故事是一个例子，用来说明前面的内容，因此根据该例前面的in the first few seconds可知应该选择D项。

该段主要是说顾客在进店的头几秒钟就会做出是否购买的决定，因此良好的第一印象自然会有助于增加销量。

【答案】 D
8．What is the main purpose of the passage?
A．To explain how businesses turn people into their customers.
B．To introduce how businesses have grown from the past.
C．To report researches on customer behavior.
D．To show dishonest business practices.
【解析】目的意图题。

文章的第一段就点明了主题。

本文主要介绍的是商家是通过哪些手段把人们变成顾客的。

因此答案选A。

文章虽然提到了古埃及，但并不是介绍商家是如何从过去发展而来的，因此B项不对；文章主要聚焦在商家的一些做法上，因此C项有误；D项的dishonest一词与全文的基调不一致，文章只是客观介绍，并没有暗示商家不诚实。

【答案】 A
C

Ⅱ.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
(2016·宁夏银川一中高二上期末) 16 Sometimes they try to get out of a class to escape a teacher they don't like. Here is some advice to solve this problem.
•Ask yourself, “What can I learn from this teacher？” Even if you don't worship his or her personality or lectures, dig deep until you find a subject in which he or she is very knowledgeable. Focus on that part of the teacher's personality, and use him or her as a tool for learning. Not only will you gain more knowledge in that subject，but a closer relationship with your teacher may help you understand one another better. 17
•Talk to students who are doing well in the class and ask them for ti ps, tools, and a plan of action to get along with the teacher better. 18 •If you still can't get along, make an appointment with the school guidance counselor (辅导员). He or she will offer many tips and suggestions for you to get out of difficult teacher relationships. 19 That means they can help you and your teachers get rid of the bad impression on each other.
• 20 Your parents can meet with your teacher and try to work it out.
Teachers are there for more than just homework, and they know about more than just their subject matter.They can help you learn how to function as an adult and a lifelong learner.
Undoubtedly, these will be a few teachers along the way who you will always remember and who might change your life forever.
A．Sometimes a guidance counselor can act as a mediator between you and the teacher.
B．If you're too shy to talk to another student, study his or her actions and behavior in the classroom and try to follow that lead.
C．Guidance counselors have the right to blame teachers.
D．There must be something good in every teacher for you to learn from.
E．Students find it easy to get along well with their teachers.
F．If your relationship problems can't be solved in school, then it's time to
tell your parents or guardians.
G．Students don't always get along well with their teachers.

They tossed a coin as they had 29 . Albrecht Durer won the toss and 30 to Nuremberg. Albert went to work in the dangerous mines and financed his brother. Albrecht's 31 were far better than those of most of his professors, and by the time he 32 ， he was beginning to earn lots of money for his works.
When the young artist returned to his village, he thanked his beloved 33 for the years of sacrifice that had made it 34 to achieve his ambition, and said, “Now, it is your 35 to pursue your dream, and I will support you.”

One day, to show gratitude (感激) to Albert, Albrecht 39 his brother's abused hands as a gift and called his powerful drawing simply “Hands”， but the entire world renamed his 40 of love “The Praying Hands”．
【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。

作者向我们讲述了一个发人深思的故事。

由于家境贫寒，一对有梦想的兄弟用掷硬币的方法确定谁去高等院校学习美术。

结果Albrecht胜了，Albert只好去矿上做工，挣钱供对方上学。

后来，Albrecht功成名就成为一名画家。

按照协议，轮到他资助Albert上学了。

可一切都迟了。

Albert的双手积劳成疾，无法握笔做画了。

Albrecht按照Albert的手做了一幅名为“手”的画作，以表示感激。

后来人们把这幅画重命名为“祈祷的双手”。

其余三个选项均可排除。

26．A.expressions B．preparation
C．discussions D．unemployment
【解析】由题意不难推测，经过了一番讨论之后，他们才达成协议。

C．factories D．mines
【解析】本段末句及下一段的第三句中均有暗示。

36．A.However B．Moreover
C．Therefore D．Otherwise
【解析】由refused一词可知，此处表达转折意味。

【答案】 A
37．A.early B．late

【答案】 B

39．A.drew B．cured
