There was a rule in our school that if anyone damaged his desk or chair, he would have to pay five dollars or the teacher would beat him in front of the whole
school.”
“One day I damaged my desk in some way, I had to pay five dollars or be beaten before the whole school. My father said it would be too bad to have our family disgraced in front of the whole school. He agreed to give me five dollars to hand over the teacher. But before he gave me the money, he took me upstairs and gave me a beating.”
“But as I had one beating and I decided I would take another beating at school and keep the five dollars. So that's what I did. That was the first money I ever earned.”

答案与解析
本文是一篇记叙文。

讲述了马克·吐温被问及自己第一次挣到钱是什么时候。

他回忆说当时学校有个规定，破坏课桌的学生要么交五美元罚款要么挨打。

马克·吐温的父亲给了他五美元让他交给学校，打了他一顿。

由于他已经挨了一次打，不再害怕挨打，所以他把五美元留下，在学校又挨了一次打。

21．A 细节理解题。

由文章第一段马克·吐温所说的话可知他赚到第一笔钱时，还是个学生。

22．D 细节理解题。

由文章第二段可知他的父亲不想让全家人丢脸，故D项正确。

23．D 推理判断题。

由文章第二段和第三段可知他在家和学校各挨了一顿打。

B
Albert was an ordinary worker in an oil company in America. His workmates gave a nickname (绰号) “Four dollars a bucket” below his name whenever and wherever he wrote down his name.
As time went by, people forgot his real name. Later, when Rockefeller, the board chairman (董事长) of the oil company, heard of it, he was very surprised, so he invited Albert to come to his office.
“Some people give you a nickname for ‘Four dollars a bucket’. Why aren't you angry？” asked Rockefeller with some puzzlement in his eyes.
“Oh! Mr Rockefeller! I like this nickname very much, because ‘Four dollars a bucket’is our company's advertisement. As long as someone calls me ‘Four dollars a bucket’ once, I think it's free advertisement for our company. It's not necessary for me to get angry. Don't you think so, Mr Rockefeller？”
“Oh! What a fantastic man！” Rockefeller said excitedly when hearing Albert's words, “Young man! Work harder, you must be successful in the future! I believe in you！”
Five years later, Albert became the second board chairman after Rockefeller.
Later Albert said in one of his reports, “I don't th ink we should feel frustrated when we have no way to do the world­shaking things. We should treat everything actively because maybe our future success will begin from a small thing！”
24．Why wasn't Albert angry about his nickname?
A．He liked to have a nickname.
B．It could make his workmates happy.
C．He could become famous.
D．It was a free advertisement for his company.
25．What did the underlined word “fantastic” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Bad. B．Good.
C．Just­so­so.D．Ordinary.
26．What would be the best title for this passage?
A．A Clever Way to Make Advertisements
B．Albert and Rockefeller
C．Four Dollars a Bucket
D．The Second Board Chairman
答案与解析
本文是一篇记叙文。

介绍了美国石油公司的普通工人Albert。

同事为他起了一个绰号
“四美元一桶”，大家都叫他的绰号以至于忘了真名。

他不生气，他认为这是在为公司做免费广告。

后来他成了董事长，他认为：一个人如果没有办法做成大事，但一定要做好手头的小事，因为可能未来的成功是从一件小事开始的。

24．D 细节理解题。

根据第四段中“Oh! Mr Rockefeller! I like this nickname very much, because ‘Four dollars a bucket’ is our company's advertisement.”可知，他非常喜欢这个绰号，是因为“四美元一桶”是他们公司的广告，故选择D项。

25．B 词义猜测题。

根据后面洛克菲勒先生对艾伯特的鼓励，可知是赞美的话。

只有good有赞美之意。

故选择B项。

26．C 主旨大意题。

通过阅读短文可知本文就是告诉人们要从小事做起，而主人公这个绰号正好体现出了他注意细节问题的性格，C项最符合本文中心。

故选择C项。

C
Have you come across much western children's literature?
Most English­speaking children grow up with the same delightful set of fictional (小说的) characters. Winnie the Pooh involves a strange selections of animals such as a kangaroo, a pig, a donkey, a tiger, an owl and a bear, who live together in a wood, leading fairy ordinary lives. Far more exciting and dangerous events take place in The Wind in the Willows, the story of the foolish Mr Toad and all his adventures.
Talking animals is also the main characters in The Jungle Book and Just So Stories. In the latter we find lots of imaginative explanations as to why the world is like what it is.
Far more laughter comes from Roald Dahi's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Whillie Wonka is the perfect adult in the eyes of children with all his clever ideas and endless supply of sweets. Also much loved is Bilbo Baggins, the funny little rabbit, who ends up having adventures with wolves and dragons. Of course, the stories go on in the much more serious The Lord of the Rings, better read a few years later.
A new star in the world of magic and children's fiction is Harry Potter, the schoolboy who learns spells rather than maths. Adventures books remain popular, too. Although well over a century old now, Treasure Island is still an enthralling story with young Jim Hawkins dealing with secret maps and pirates. Such books make childhood a time of wonder and imagination.
27．Which of these is NOT mentioned as a character in Winnie the Pooh?
28．In which book would you expect to find the chapter “How the tiger got his stripes”？
A．The Wind in the Willows. B．Just So Stories.
C．Treasure Island. D．The Lord of the Rings.
29．Which of the following statements is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A．Treasure Island was written a long time ago.
B．Roald Dahi's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a light­hearted book.
C．The Lord of the Rings was published earlier than Harry Potter.
D．Jim Hawkins wrote Treasure Island.
30．The underlined word “enthralling” in Paragraph 4 means ________.
A．disappointing B．modern
C．interesting D．frightening
答案与解析
文章主要谈论的是西方儿童文学。

大多数说英语国家的孩子，他们的成长都会伴随着一些相同的童话故事人物。

这些童话故事书大多以写动物为主，后来出现了与魔法有关的故事书。

当然，冒险类的书籍依然受到孩子们的喜爱。

27．D 细节理解题。

根据第二段“Winnie the Pooh involves a strange selections of animals such as a kangaroo, a pig, a donkey, a tiger, an owl and a bear”可知，Winnie the Pooh出现的动物有袋鼠、小猪、驴、老虎、猫头鹰和熊，故事中没有出现兔子，故选D。

28．B 推理判断题。

根据第三段“In the latter we find lots of imaginative explanations as to why the world is like what it is.”可知，关于世界为什么是现在这个样子，Just So Stories里有许多奇妙的解释，故选B。

29．D 细节理解题。

根据最后一段“Although well over a century old now, Treasure Island is still an enthralling story with young Jim Hawkins dealing with secret maps and pirates.”可知，《金银岛》出版一个世纪以来，一直很受追捧，其中的主人公是Jim Hawkins，D项说Jim Hawkins是《金银岛》的作者，是错误的，故选D。

30．C 词义猜测题。

根据画线词前面一句“Adventures books remain popular, too.”
可知，冒险类的故事书现在也很受欢迎，《金银岛》一书虽然走过了一个世纪的光景，但依然很受孩子们的喜爱。

disappointing“令人失望的”；modern“当代的”；interesting“有趣的”；frightening“恐怖的”。

C项与popular相近，故选C。

第二节：(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

There is one thing that everyone wants more than anything else. __31__ They think that when they have enough money to buy such things as houses, farms, and cars, they will have the thing that everyone wants.
Other people believe that if they know enough they will find this thing. __32__ Still others think that if they have power, they will find this thing. Some people keep telling themselves: “When I'm a boss, I will no longer have to search for this thing.”
What is it that everyone wants more than anything else? What is it that all of us keep working and striving for each day? __33__ Happiness is a strange thing. __34__ What will make one man happy may not make another man happy. Some men say that happiness comes from helping others; other men say that happiness comes from making life more pleasant for everyone. What do you mean when you say “That makes me happ y”？ __35__ Perhaps you will learn something that will bring you peace of mind, comfort, money or it may be what you search for—happiness.

G．Read what different people have said about happiness.
答案与解析
本文讲到人们都想追求的东西——幸福。

31．E 前两段是并列关系，第二段以other people believe that...开头，呼应此处，故选E。

32．C 前一句话“Other people believe that if they know enough they will find this thing”告诉我们，另外一些人认为如果他们知识渊博，他们就会找到自己想要的东西，本题是他们这种看法的结果。

They study all their life in search of it，故选C项。

33．A 本段总结上文，引起下文，揭开人们所追求的答案：幸福。

故选A项。

34．B 由下文“What will make one man happy may not make another man happy.”可知本题选B。

It does not mean the same to all men.“这并不意味着对所有的人都相同”。

Dear Li Hua，
I'm sorry to learn about your problem. It's normal for your mom to worry about your new life in college. Here are some suggestions.
First, why not talk more with your mom? Heart­to­heart talks help you understand each other better. Second, you should learn to take care of yourself, proving to your mom that you are already grown­up. It's even better if you could share the housework, such as cleaning, washing and cooking.
I hope you'll find my ideas useful.
Yours，
Lynn 第二节：读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

It was the late 1930s, and things were tough. Mum had a hard time raising us on her own in our small community of New Westminster, BC. My dad had drowned in Pitt Lake five years ago.
Looking back, I realize what Mum went thought sending us kids to school. Every morning she would tuck a new piece of cardboard on our shoes, because our soles (鞋底) were worn out. When we got home, Mum would have “French_toast” ready for us. Constant moving was typical for my family in those times. Rent was 25 dollars a month, but Mum couldn't pay it, and we knew we would be evicted right after Christmas on the first of January.
Christmas was approaching, and we were entitled to a twenty­five­dollar Christmas fund from social_services. The inspector came to our house, and searched it from top to bottom to be sure we didn't have any food hidden away. When he didn't find any, he issued the cheque to Mum. Mum said that instead of buying food, she would use the 25_dollars to pay back rent, assuring us all of a roof over our heads for a little while longer. She told us then there would be nothing for Christmas.
Unknown to Mum, I had been selling Christmas tree, shoveling snow, and doing odd jobs to earn enough money to buy a new pair of boots. Boots that weren't patched, boots with no cardboard in the soles. I knew exactly which boots I wanted. They were ten­inch Top Genuine Pierre Paris and they had a price of 23 dollars.
Well, the big day came on the afternoon of Christmas Eve. I was excited, as I hurried up the road to the shoe store, but on the way I noticed a house with Christmas lights and decorations. It was then I realized at our house, we had no lights, no decorations, nor any money for Christmas goodies. I knew that we would have no turkey
or ham for Christmas, and I felt sad.
注意：

2．至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；
3．续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；

Paragraph 2：
With great excitement and tears in my eyes, I knocked on the door.__________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________
范文
Paragraph 1：
As I continued walking I began to reconsider my plan. I was feeling a strange sense of guilt. Here I was going to buy a new pair of boots while my mother was home in tears. She would be trying to explain to us why there were no presents. Across the street from the bus stop was a big grocery store. I realized that 25_dollars I had worked so hard for went a long way towards lights, decorations and a turkey. After finishing shopping, I went home.
Paragraph 2：
With great excitement and tears in my eyes, I knocked on the door. I could hardly wait to see my mother's face! When Mum opened the door, some of the groceries fell inside onto the floor, and she just stood there, dumbfounded. Holding back the tears, I said, “Merry Christmas！” That day I got enough hugs and kisses from Mum to last two lifetimes.。
