第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 30 分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
The United States has about 475,000 school buses — all painted yellow. Each day they carry more than 25,000,000 children, half of all schoolchildren in the country. But these buses, on average, use four liters of diesel ( 柴油) fuel to travel less than sixteen kilometers. When the school year began last fall, diesel averaged 55 cents a liter nationally. The price nearly doubled, to a dollar and 8 cents, by the end of school in June.
Bob Riley speaks for the American School Bus Council. He says fuel prices for schools are not much lower than others have to pay. As a result, schools are looking for ways to reduce transportation costs. Bus routes are being redrawn or, in some cases, canceled. Some areas are buying buses that use natural gas or other alternative fuels. Other steps include fewer field trips and less travel by sports teams. And some school districts may end any bus service not required by law.
Studies show that school buses are the safest form of transportation to and from school. The American School Bus Council says cuts in bus service are bad for children and possibly the environment. It says removing buses from the road will mean an increase in other vehicles transporting students. Spokesman Bob Riley says another concern is that reducing bus services might reduce attendance.
But it could also get more children to walk or bicycle to school. And that would surely make people happy at the National Center for Safe Routes to School. More kids walking or biking safely to school is the aim of a three-year-old federal program, part of an international movement. The goal is to increase physical activity and reduce air pollution. The United States will celebrate Walk to School Day on October eighth this year. But for some students, high fuel prices could make every day a
walk-to-school day.
1. What does this passage mainly tell us?
A. High fuel prices’ influences on school buses.
B. New measures to transport school students.
C. The safest form of student transportation.
D. The origin of Walk to School Day.
2. In order to cut down transportation cost, many schools take the following measures EXCEPT ______ .
A. changing some bus routes
B. stopping some bus routes
C. asking parents to drive children to and from school
D. using other types of fuels
3. The National Center for Safe Routes to School encourages more children to walk or bike to school in order to ______.
A. save more fuels and diesel for the country
B. keep the children safe on their way to school
C. make the children live a simple life
D. keep the children healthy and the environment clean
【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D
【解析】

尾句:The price nearly doubled, to a dollar and 8 cents, by the end of school in June.价格几乎翻倍,在六月学年结束时涨到了一美元八美分。
再看末尾一段尾句:But for some students, high fuel prices could make every day a walk-to-school day.但对于有些学生,高油价会使得每天变成步行上学的一天。

I promised Michael I wouldn’t mention this until the season was over. Now l think it's time.
Early last season, I wrote a column about an art of kindness I had seen Jordan do to a disabled child outside the stadium. After it ran,I got a call from a marl in the western suburbs. He said,“I read what you wrote about Jordan. but I thought I should tell you another thing I saw. ”
Here it comes, I thought. It always does. Write something nice about a person, and people call you up to say that the person is not so nice.
A few weeks later Jordan and I were talking about something else before a game, and I brought up what the man had said. Was the man right? Had Jordan really been talking to those two boys in that poor and dirty neighborhood?
"Not two boys," Jordan said. "But four."
And he named them. He said four names. And what did they talk about?
"Everything,” Jordan said. " Anything. I’ve asked to see their grades so that I can check to see if they're paying attention to their study. If it turns out that one or two of them may need teaching, I make sure they get it."
It's just one more part of Michael Jordan's life one more thing that no one knows about and one more thing Jordan does fight for. The NBA season is over now, and those
boys have their memories. So do J! When the expert reviewers begin to turn against Jordan as they surely will, I'll think about those boys under the streetlight, waiting for the man they know to come. For someone they can depend on.
4. The writer wrote this story about Jordan and his young friends because ______
A. he thought highly of Jordan's deeds
B. he hated to see Jordan do something bad
C he believed it was time to help the disabled
D. he felt sure he needn't keep the promise then
5. A man in the western suburbs made a call to ______
A. know why Jordan stopped in a bad area
B. get a chance to become famous himself
C. let the writer know Jordan was not that nice
D. offer an example to show how Jordan helped others
6. Jordan talked with the boys because he ______.
A. needed their support
B. had promised to do so
C liked to teach them to play basketball
D. wanted to make sure they all studied well
7. The text implies that Jordan is ______.
A. an excellent basketball player
B. good at dealing with problems of life
C. always ready to make friends with young people
D. willing to do whatever he can for the good of society
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. D
【解析】

但我想我应当告知你我看到的另一件事。
”和第三段Write something nice about a person, and people call you up to say that the person is not so nice.“写一些关于一个人的好话,人们会打电话给你说这个人不怎么好。
”由此可知,一个住在西郊的人打电话给作者,告知他乔丹没那么好。

“任何东西。
我要求看他们的成果,这样我就能知道他们是否仔细学习了。

I am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.
I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.
So here's what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.
Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure, it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.
It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.
I learned to love the journey not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned.
By telling them this: Read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.
8. The best title of this passage probably is
A. Love your friends
B. Live a real life
C. Don't waste time
D. Be a good mother and wife
9. How did the author form her view of life?
A. Through working and social experience.
B. By learning from her friends.
C. Through an unfortunate experience.
D. From her children and husband
10. By the underlined sentence "It is so easy to exist instead of to live" in the fifth paragraph, the author really means that people tend to .
A. make a living rather than live a real life
B. work rather than enjoy life
C. waste a lot in life
D. forget the most important lessons in life
11. What's the author's attitude toward work?
A. Do it well to serve others.
B. To earn enough money to make life better.
C. Try your best to get higher position and pay.
D. Don't let it affect your real life.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
这是一篇夹叙夹议文。
作者从过去的经验中感知到生活的真谛,过着真正的生活。
而不是追求那些无用的身外之物。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。
依据第三段So here's what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.可知所以今日我想告知你们的是:好好生活。
一种真实的生活,而不是对下一次晋升,更丰厚的薪水,更大的房子的渴望。
结合本文中作者从过去的经验中感知到生活的真谛,过着真正的生活。
而不是追求那些无用的身外之物。
由此可知,B选项“过真实的生活”最符合文章标题。
故选B。
【9题详解】
细微环节理解题。
依据倒数第三段中I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all.可知很多年前我就学会了生活。
一件特别特别糟糕的事发生在我身上,这件事变更了我的生活,假如我可以选择的话,这件事根本不会变更。
由此可知,作者通过一次不幸的经验形成了她的人生观。
故选C。
【10题详解】
推理推断题。
依据后文I learned to live many years ago.(我多年前就学会了如何生活)可知,划线句子的意思是指人要存活简洁,但是生活并不简洁,作者也是多年前才学会了如何生活,由此可知,通过第五段中划线句“It is so easy to exist instead of live”,作者真正想表达的意思是:人们倾向于谋生而不是真正的生活。
故选A。
【11题详解】
推理推断题。
依据第一段中I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.可知我始终努力不让我的职业阻碍我成为一个好父母。
以及第三段So here's what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.可知所以今日我想告知你们的是:好好生活。
一种真实的生活,而不是对下一次晋升,更丰厚的薪水,更大的房子的渴望。
由此可推知,作者对工作的看法是不要让它影响你的现实生活。
故选D。

It is a network of offices, some of which provide food and houses for the homeless population, and some of which fight for the passing of laws that of over two hundred million people living in the United States,up to three million are homeless—and the number is still growing. Since the late 1970s,fast rising house prices,large cuts in government supported housing programs, and economic recession(经济衰退)have made it impossbile for many Americans to meet housing costs. Sadly, this has resulted in a number of persons being forced to leave their homes and/or unable to find new affordable homes. According to another research,families with children appear to be the fastest-growing part of the homeless population, making up 39% of it.The old idea of a homeless person,that of the single man who gets drunk all the time,is no longer true. A much lager part of the population now finds itself homeless. Even worse, once a person becomes homeless, he often finds it impossible to find a job,since most employers require anyone who wants a job from them to provide a home address on a job application.
12. The word “address” in the first line probably means .
A. talk about
B. deal with
C. fight for
D. write to
13. How many people are homeless in the U.S. according to the Coalition studies?
A. 39% of the population.
B. 200 million people.
C. About 3 million people.
D. About one-fifth of the population.
14. Homeless people often have difficulty finding a job because________.
A. they have no home addresses
B. they mostly have a drinking problem
C. they aren't supported by government programs
D. they often don't have enough work experience
15. What is the main cause of the rising number of the homeless in the U.S.?
A. The passing of new housing laws.
B. The fast growth of family size.
C. The slow construction of houses.
D. The ever-rising price of housing.

Making Peace with Your Parents
As a teen, you’re going through big changes physically and mentally. Your
interests are increasing. ___16___ Here is the challenge: Kids need to explore the world in new ways, and parents need to protect them from the dangers that are all out in that world. These conflicts can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm houses. Sometimes conflicts can’t be avoided. But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships, you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents.
For example, try to find a time to talk when your parents are not angry, tired, distracted or hungry. A good time to talk is when you’re all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument, you’d better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation for now. ___17___ Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you’re listening. ___18___ Respect is the building block of good communication. People who respect each other and care about each others’ feelings can disagree without getting things ugl y. ___19___ How do you build trust? Trust comes by actually doing what you say you’re going to do. Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships. Sometimes we forget that parents are more than
rule-maker—they’re interesting people who like to watch movies and go shopping—just like their teenagers!
What do you do if you are trying your best, but your relationship with your parents continues to be rocky? ___20___ You can find supportive adults, such as a teacher or a coach, who can lend an ear. Remember you can only change your own behavior. Your parents are the only ones who can change theirs.
A. You may consider seeking outside help.
B. And then you’ll be able to accept what your parents say.
C. You can pick it up again when everyone’s more relaxed.
D. Faced with the challenge, children don’t know what to do.
E. And your desire to take control of your own life is growing.
F. It also gives them a chance to clear things up if you’re not on the same page.
G. You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.
【答案】16. E 17. C 18. F 19. G 20. A
