Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translationIt must be a wrong sentence in your own language.Language do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master (掌握) the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the sentences put words in a wrong order, the listeners can’t understand the speakers’ sentences easily. Sometimes when the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see thedifference between the two pairs of sentences.“She only likes apples.”“Only she likes apples.”“I’ve seen the film already.”“I have already seen the film.”When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit (精神) of the language and use it as the English speakers do.根据短文内容,判断下列句子正误。

When we were saying goodbye, I suddenly felt afraid that I had never hadbefore. This was the first time I had traveled so far by myself. And going to a far-away place I have never been before made me feel terrible. I held back my tears until I could no longer see my parents. As I was wiping away(擦去)my tears, I realizedthat, from that moment on, I would have to doeverything by myself.After my arrival in Wellington, my teacher, Ms. Lang, showed me around my new school.A few days later, I started having classes. There were only 20 students in each class.Only maths, science, social studies(社会学)and English were pulsory, and students could choose other subjects for themselves, I chose music, Japanese and health.In New Zealand, students are very active in class. And teachers are not as serious. They often let us play games in class. We can sit with anyone we like, and the teacher can sit at her own desk or at a student’s desk. The school had an easy manner, with few rule s.Because there was no homework, we could join clubsor do anything we liked. I always went to the library after school, where I found a lot of books to help with my studies.Studying in New Zealand is very different from studying in China. In New Zealand, studentsdepend onthe library to gain knowledge instead of waiting for what teachers ask them to do.Time went fast. The two months after I arrived flew by. Then a week of exams began.I did not have to take these exams, because I had only been at the school for a short time. However, my maths teacher encouragedme to take the maths exam, as she thought I could do well. Though there wasn’t much pressureon me, I worked very hard to get ready for the exam because I know that no pain means no gain.When the day of the exam came, I found that I finished the paper faster than the other students. One week later, my teacher told the whole class who had got the top mark: It was me!I got 94 percent.All my classmates were very happy and said congratulations to me. It was one of the happiest days of my life43.

The writer always went to the library because ________.A. the teacher asked her to do soB. she wanted to gain knowledge with the help of many booksC. she had no homework and had nothing to doD. she must get ready for the exams47. The writer didn’t have to take the exams, ________.A. so she didn’t work hard to get ready for themB. but she thought she could do well and took the maths examC. but she took the maths exam and did best of all in itD. so she found she finished the paper faster than the othersBLisa, a middle-aged woman, went to prepare lunch, leaving her 3-year-old son, Barney, playing by himself in the backyard.All of a sudden, a sharp cry of Barney came into the mother’s ears, and Lisa rushed into the backyard and found a big snake entwining the little child with its body and trying to swallow the boy. Lisa was terrified and quite angry. She made up her mind to save her son from the snake’s mouth.It was a fearless mother’s love that made Lisa forgot what she faced. She took up an old hatchet from the ground and struck the snake with all her strength.One, two, with the hatchet, Lisa hit the snake again and again, but she felt as if she were striking a mass of solid rubber. The little boy’s voice and breath were getting weaker and weaker. Lisa’s heart was broken and she nearly went mad. Suddenly Lisa put aside the hatchet and threw herself on to the snake, opened hermouth and bit into its back, as if tearing a touch steak. Lisa was really mad.A small piece of flesh was bitten off. Lisa picked up the hatchet again and hit at the wound in the snake’s body madly and savagely.S tinking blood was spraying out of the snake’s body. The snake was so badly wounded that it let go of Barney and moved back into the forest. It had never imagined that human beings had such terrible, sharp teeth. Halfway home, the snake died.48.What did Lisa find when she came into the backyard?A. big snake was swallowing her son.B. Her son was playing with a poisonous snake.C. Her son was in no danger of losing his life.D. Barney was fighting a big snake.49.Why did Lisa fail in killing the snake at first?A. Because she was afraid that what she did would hurt her son.B. Because the hatchet was not sharp enough and the snake’s skin was too hard.C. Because the snake was even stronger than Lisa.D. Because she was too astonished to do anything.50. _______, so she bit the snake.A. Lisa was really driven madB. Lisa thought her teeth were much sharper than the hatchetC. Lisa couldn’t refuse the temptation of the snake’s meatD. Lisa had not got any other way to deal with the snake51.From the story, we learned that it was a mother’s love that made ____.A. Barney braveB. the snake frightenedC. Lisa mad and angryD. the woman fearless52.Which of the following is true?A. The wounded snake didn’t crawl back into its hiding hole in th e forest before it died.B. Without her teeth sharper than anyone else’s, she would not have defeated the snake.C. Even though Barney was not saved alive, the lady won a brave victory of love.D. Even if she did not use the hatchet again, the snake would still be killed.CThirty- two people watched Kitty Genovese being killed right below their windows. She was their neighbor. Yet none of the 32 helped her. Not one even called the police. Was this in gunman cruelty? Was it lack of feeling about one’s fello wman? “Not so,”say scientists John Barley and Bib Fatane. These men went beyond the headlines to research into the reasons why people didn’t act. They found that a person has to go through two steps before he can help. First he has to notice that is an emergency(紧急情况). Suppose you see a middle aged man fall to the side - walk. Is he having a heart attack? Is he in a a(昏迷) from a headache? Or is he about to sleep off a drunk?Is the smoke ing into the room from a leak(漏洞) in the air conditioning? Is it “steam pipes”? Or is it really smoke from a fire? It’s not always easy to tell if you are faced with a real emergency. Second, and more important, the person facedwith an emergency must feel personally responsible(负责任的). He must feel that he must help, or the person won’t get the help he needs.The researchers found that a lot depends on how many people are around. They had college students in to be “tested.”Some came alone. Some came with one or two others. And some came in large groups. The researchers started them off on the “tests.”Then they went into the next room. A curtain divided the “testing room”and the room into which they went. Soon the students heard a scream, the noise of book shelves falling and a cry for help. All of this had been prerecorded on a tape recorder. Eight out of ten of the students taking the test alone acted to help. Of the students in pairs, only two out of ten helped. Of the students in groups, none helped.In other words, in a group, Americans often fail to act. They feel that others will act. They, themselves, needn’t. They do not feel any direct responsibility.Are people bothered by situations where people are in trouble? Yes. Scientists found that the people were shocked, they sweated, and they had trembling hands. They felt th e other person’s trouble. But they did not act. They were in a group. Their actions were shaped by the actions of those they were with.53.The purpose of this passage is ________.A. to explain why people fail to act in emergenciesB. to explain when people will act in emergenciesC. to explain what people will do in emergenciesD. to explain how people feel in emergencies54.Which of the following is NOT true?A. When a person tries to help others, he must be clear that there is a real emergency.B. When a person tries to help others, he should know whether they are worth his help.C. A person must take the full responsibility for the safety of those in emergenciesif he wants to help.D. A person with a heart attack needs the most.55.The main reason why people fail to act when they stay together is that ________.A. they are afraid of emergenciesB. they are not willing to get themselves involvedC. others will act if they themselves hesitateD. they do not have any direct responsibility for those who need help 56.The author suggests that ________.A. we shouldn’t blame a person if he fails to act in emergenciesB. a person must feel guilty if he fails to helpC. people should be responsible for themselves in emergenciesD. when you are in trouble, people will help you anywayD在下列57—61题中,Bobby, Maria, Andrew, Lucy和Scott正在寻找适合自己的大学。

I smiled and thought of how my life had changed since we had last met.It all started when I noticed her at a party in a friend’s house many years ago. I followed her to the dining-room and started talking to her about the food. “You seem very interested in food,” S he laughed. “Well, I’m a great cook,” I told her. It was a lie, but I had to find an excuse to see her again. “May I cook for you sometime?”Two days later, Jane came to my house for dinner.

We can’t live without the Sun. The Sun is at the centre of the solar system. Its gravity holds all the planets in place.The Sun is the biggest object in the solar system. Do you know how big it is? Well, use your head and imagine. ①Its diameter(直径)is about 109 times as big as the Earth’s. You could fill with over A MILLION Earths inside the Sun.Scientists think that the Sun( and the planets) formed the solar nebula about 4.59 billion years ago, so it’s pretty old!The Sun gives out too much heat. It is a planet with high temperature. Its temperature is 5,500 degrees Celsius on the surface and 15.6 million degrees Celsius at the core. The temperature of the Sun isn’t the same all over. In some places where “ sun spots’ occur, it isn’t as hot as elsewhere.It’s made almost entirely of hydrogen, with a little helium and a few heavier gases including oxygen. And there’s even some iron there too.Light from the Sun reaches the Earth in just 8 minutes!②Remember not to look directly at the Sun. You could seriously damage your eyes.阅读短文,根据短文内容完成下面的任务。
