8．—Did you remember to give Mary the dictionary? —Yes, I gave it to her ________ I saw her. A．while

C．suddenly

B．the moment D．once 答案：B

句意：——你记得给玛丽字典吗？——是的，我一见到她就给她了。the moment连词，“一……就”。while“当……时候”，从句中的谓语动词应为延续性动词；once“一旦……”。

9．—I don't know ________ makes her different from others. —Confidence, I think. A．how is it that

C．what is it that

B．how it is that D．what it is that 答案：D

考查强调句式。强调句的特殊疑问句在宾语从句中用陈述语序，可以排除A和C。又后面从句中缺少主语，因此用what引导。

Ⅵ.阅读理解

The first time I saw dog meat, I cried. I was walking down a small side street in an

ancient town located in Yunnan Province,

when I noticed a terrible smell.

I became curious to find out the source of it, and noticed a man selling a type of meat I was unfamiliar with. It was proved to be dog meat. While I gave the seller a dirty look and quickly moved on, others casually walked by without noticing. Instantly I tried to imagine what the short life of this dog was like. For an animal that gives me so much joy, which has unique personalities and displays human-like emotions, it's hard to comprehend why a human wants to kill and eat such a creature. I have asked a number of people about their thoughts on dog meat. An old American man who lives in Taizhou, Jiangsu Province recalls waiting for winter so he can select a dog to be dished up, just as one can select a fish to be served in a seafood restaurant. He says you know you are eating dog meat because of the strong smell and taste unlike any other meat.

On the contrary, another old American recalls being invited out to dinner and witnessing a paw clinging to the inside of a hot pot.

His reaction was to politely decline the invitation to eat this hot dish and stick to the fried rice. One Chinese woman I know hates seeing dog meat on the streets, as it reminds her of her pet dog QQ which was stolen. She later found her dog on the street to be served as a snack.

Many young Chinese I talked to refuse to eat dog meat because they have dogs as pets, and can't imagine eating dog meat for lunch.

However, their grandparents seem to recall a time when they ate dog meat, and they would be very happy with a dog leg. 文章大意：作者在云南逛街时，注意到有出售狗肉的摊点，对此作者发表了自己的观点，并介绍了人们对于吃狗肉这一现象的不同看法。

1．Why did the writer give the seller a dirty look? A．Because he or she was very interested in the seller. B．Because he or she disliked the smell of the dog meat. C．Because he or she was angry at the seller's killing the dog. D．Because he or she thought of his or her lovely pet. 答案：C

意图理解题。由第一段中的“Instantly I tried to imagine what the short life of this dog was like.”及“it's hard to comprehend why a human wants to kill and eat such a creature”可知答案。

2．What can we infer from the passage? A．The author had a deep affection for dogs.

B．The author must come from the USA. C．The author may have had an unhappy experience before while eating dog meat. D．The author's grandparents both tasted dog meat while young. 答案：A

推理判断题。由文章第一段中的“For an animal that gives me so much joy, which has unique personalities...wants to kill and eat such a creature.”可知，作者非常喜欢狗这种动物。故选A。

3．Two old Americans were mentioned with the purpose of ________. A．attracting readers' attention B．showing dog meat is forbidden in the USA C．telling readers that dog meat is special in winter D．showing different opinions on dog meat 答案：D

意图理解题。由第二段的首句“I have asked a number of people about their thoughts on dog meat.”可知，作者提到两个美国人旨在介绍人们对吃狗肉的不同观点。

4．What would be the best title of the passage? A．My unforgettable story in China B．Dog meat, to eat or not to eat? C．Never eat dog meat—it's bad for your health D．It's time to protect our faithful friends 答案：B

标题归纳题。由全文内容及文章中介绍的不同观点可知，作者主要是围绕是否应该吃狗肉展开的，故B项作标题贴切。

[1]At the beginning of the twentieth century, many people thought that the American family was falling apart. A century later, we know that this was not the case. However, although the family is still alive in the United States, its size and shape were very different 100 years ago. [2]In the late 1800s and early 1900s, there were mainly two types of families in the United States: the extended and the nuclear.

The extended family usually includes grandparents, parents, and children living under the same roof. The nuclear family consists of only parents and children. [3]Today there are many different kinds of families. Some people live in “traditional” families,

that is,

a stay-home mother, a working father, and their own biological children. Others live in two-paycheck families, single-parent families, adoptive or foster families and so on. [4]What caused the structure of the family to change? In the 1930s and 1940s,

many families faced serious financial problems during the Great Depression and women

were choosing to go to college and take jobs outside the home. As a result, the birthrate began to fall and the divorce rate began to rise. During World War II (1939－1945 ), 5 million women were left alone to take care of their homes and their children. ________，

thousands of their wives had to go to work outside their home. [5]During the next ten years, the situation changed. There were fewer divorces, and people married at a younger age and had more children than the previous generation. It was unusual for a mother to work outside the home during the years when her children were growing up. The traditional family seemed to be returning. [6]In the years between 1960s and 1990s, there were many important changes in the structure of the family.

The divorce

rate doubled and the birthrate fell by half.

The number of

single-parent families doubled, and the number of couples living together without being married doubled again. If we can judge from history, however, this will probably change again in the twenty-first century. 1．What is the title of the passage？(no more than 8 words) _________________________________________________________________ 2．What were the two main types of families in the past？(no more than 8 words) _________________________________________________________________ 3．What caused the fall of birthrate and the rise of divorce rate？(no more than 15 words) _________________________________________________________________ 4．Please fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words.(no more than 8 words) _________________________________________________________________ 5．What does the underlined word“this” in Paragraph 6 probably refer to？(no more than 7 words) _________________________________________________________________ 答案：1.The Changes of the American Family 2．The extended and the nuclear.或The extended family and the nuclear family. 3．Women chose to go to college and take jobs outside the home. 4．Because many men were at war. 5．The structure of the family.或The family structure. Ⅲ.六选五

根据短文内容，从下框的A～F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，选

项中有一项为多余项。

A．Children don't mean to annoy their parents. B．Children can't understand their parents. C．The generation gap exists between parents and kids. D．Communication can help you become independent. E．Parents should understand their children. F．Children want to prove parents are responsible. 1.

Parents complain that their teenage children don't listen to them. They don't like the way their kids are dressed. They can't appreciate the music their children prefer. They don't like the stars their children admire. Of course, teenagers too are puzzled. They wonder why there

is

always

difference

between

them

and

their parents. This is what we call the generation gap. 2.

Some children have always complained that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not trust their children to deal with trouble; that they talk too much about certain problems and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. Actually, this happens as a result of misunderstanding because loving the young is the nature of all the parents. 3.

Young people often get their parents annoyed with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in idols (偶像) and music, but that is not their desire. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or idols or clothes or hairstyles annoy their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They may think that

they are leaders in style and taste. 4.

Sometimes you are satisfied if your parents don't approve of what you do. You may think that they do so for your sake. They tend to bring their children under control just because they want to be responsible for their children. On the contrary, you'll be sad if they let you do everything in your own way. That will make you think they don't care

about you. 5.

If you plan to control your life, you are supposed to communicate with others in a more effective way. You can charm others, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do. 答案：1－5

阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

注意：每个空格只填一个单词。

Blood donation is a wonderful thing done by us. To begin with, extensive studies show that blood plays a vital role in medical operation. In donating our blood we are actually saving the precious lives of the sick. Next, being a healthy person, losing 200 ml of blood is only a small sacrifice and helps to improve our metabolism (新陈代谢). Finally, donating blood helps us in forming good character and developing our sense of social responsibility. Blood donation isn't a complicated issue, but we need to keep a few instructions in mind. First, don't go for blood donation with an empty stomach. We can eat anything and after having a right diet we'll feel strong and comfortable to donate

blood. For the required hemoglobin (血色素) in the body, we can drink lots of fruit juice. For a good blood flow in the body, let's drink at least 6～7 glasses of water daily. Completely avoid taking alcohol or caffeine a day before and after donating our blood. We shouldn't smoke half an hour before making blood donation. When we're going for blood donation, first tell the nurse to check our hemoglobin level. During the injection we need to take a deep breath and try to calm ourselves down. During blood donation, keep ourselves cool and calm. Blood donation is a very fast process, but we need to take care of ourselves after blood donation. For example, take a rest for 15 minutes after the donation. Fat something and drink juice after leaving the blood donation centre. Make sure not to skip meals after blood donation. Smoking should be avoided up to one hour after blood donation. At last be proud of ourselves that we've done a great task in making an attempt of

saving someone's life. Blood donation is a social responsibility for every citizen, especially for us, young students. We should do it not because it does us no harm but because it is a noble thing to do and it helps others a great deal. Blood Donation
