Ⅰ.语法填空
(2016·辽宁省东北育才中学第五次模拟)There's no reason why women return to school. Going back to school provides private and public benefits. College graduates, generally enjoy higher salaries, __1__ (employ) more consistently, and work in nicer conditions. College-educated people vote more, give more to charity, and rely __2__ (little) on government support.
Making the switch from __3__ (support) to supporting oneself can be a challenge, __4__ often a necessary one. Financial __5__ (dependent) for women is key, says Nancy Schlossberg, professor at University of Maryland. “I think __6__ important for women to do some direct achievement, because chances are that women will live alone in later life, either divorced __7__ never married.”
To Schlossberg, education is critical in the long run. She says, “You are going to do much better than before __8__ you have a good education; you are going to be happier than before on condition that you have __9__ education that enables you to do what you have to do in life. The question is __10__ you are ready at this time to go for it.”
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。女性回到学校学习，不仅对个人而且对社会都有很多好处。
1．are employed 因为这句话的主语College graduates和employ之间是动宾关系，所以此处应填employ的被动语态；再根据上下文的语境可知，此处应用一般现在时，且主语是复数。故此处应填are employed。
2．less 根据上文中的“more”可知，此处应填little的比较级形式，即less。
3．being supported 因为前面有介词“from”，所以此处应用动名词结构作宾语。句意：由被人养转变成自己养自己可能是一个挑战，但这是必要的。根据语境可知，此处应填being supported。
4．but 根据语境可知，空格前后之间是转折关系，因此此处应填but。
5．independence根据下文中的“is”可知，此处应填其名词形式作主语，(in)dependence为不可数名词。故应填independence。
6．it 此处用it作形式宾语，后面的动词不定式结构作真正的宾语。所有代词中，只有it有此用法。故填it。
7．or either ... or ...是固定结构，意为“或者……或者……”。
8．if 句意：如果你受过良好的教育，那你就能比以前做得好许多。根据语境可知，此处应用if引导条件状语从句。
9．the 根据“education”后面的内容可知，此处的“教育”应是特指，故此处应填the。
10．whether 句意：问题在于你此时是否准备好去追求这样的教育。根据语境可知，此处应用whether引导表语从句。
Ⅱ.短文改错

参考范文：
Dear Mr. President，
Our class has been studying a unit on first aid. It has been very useful because we have learnt about what to do to help someone who has had an accident.
Even though the unit is very interesting and useful, we would like to be able to do a first aid course. Because it would give information about many more situations. It would also give us the chance to practice first aid treatments.
I suggest that the school should organize a first aid course. We think such a course at the school is a necessary part of our education and will make us more useful members of our society. Perhaps we will even save someone's life one day.
Best regards!
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua

Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2016·甘肃省高三第一次诊断)When Shakespeare was twenty-one, he went to London, a very interesting place, to try his fortune.
There were the famous London Bridge and St. Paul's Cathedral, and palaces and markets and long streets full of shops.
Then, too, there were the daily crowds where could be seen people from all over the world. Knights, scholars and highwaymen (拦路强盗) or thieves who had been infamous for their clever robberies, passed by each other.
Here, also, were noblemen dressed in gold, from Italy, Spain and France; slaves from Spanish America, sea captains and ministers, soldiers and servants —all held by chances or interests within the gray walls which circled London, and whose gates gave welcome to as strange a crowd as could be found in the world.
Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare, quick to see and eager to learn. And before long all these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town's residents. Each one told its story to him so plainly that, as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods, so now he learned men and men's interests that make up the great world.
And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays, he made such use of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world, combined with his own genius, that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.
语篇解读：本文是一篇人物传记，本文主要讲述了莎士比亚到伦敦后的经历，他很快适应了那里的生活，并把自己所观察到的事情融入自己的创作中。
1．What was London like in Shakespeare's eyes when he first went there?
A．Dirty and small. B．Strange and interesting.
C．Infamous and terrible. D．Familiar and modern.
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“a very interesting place”和第五段中的“all these strange sights”可知，在Shakespeare的眼中，伦敦是一个有趣而陌生的城市，即B项正确。
2．Which of the following best describes Shakespeare?
A．Shakespeare got inspiration to write from his hometown, London.
B．Shakespeare was eager to make friends with the noblemen in London.
C．Shakespeare was good at observing and learning from the daily life.
D．Shakespeare became the greatest dramatist owing to his own genius.
解析：选C 推理判断题。根据第五段可知，Shakespeare来到伦敦不久之后，通过观察和学习了解了伦敦，并适应了那里的生活，由此可推断出，Shakespeare擅长观察日常生活并从中学习，故C项正确。
3．What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A．Crowd. B．Sight.
C．Face. D．Resident.
解析：选B 代词指代题。画线词后的“as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods”的意思为“正如他以前所学到的田野和树林的秘密那样”，根据这句话
