He noticed one of the patients, a ten-year-old poor girl called Katie, who had a very painful illness.Katie lay in her bad, day after day, with nothing to help her forget her pain and cheer up. One day the doctor noticed her trying to make a doll of her finger, and speaking to it. But she was soon tired of it, and lay back into her bed.That afternoon, the young doctor saw a beautiful ribbon in a shop window. He thought that it might help cheer the little girl up, so he went in and bought it for her. When he handed the ribbon to the girl, she was too surprised to speak. There were tears in her eyes. This little gift made her feel rich and happy.The nurse later told the doctor that the girl played with the ribbon all day long. She twisted （盘绕）it round her head. She had it in her hand while she slept.Some weeks later, Katie’s illness became worse, and it was necessary to perform a dangerous operation. When Katie was brought into the operation room, she cried out for the young doctor. He was brought, and he held one of the girl’s hands, while the other tightly held the ribbon.During the operation, the ribbon fell off Katie’s hand. As soon as she woke up and opened her eyes, she looked at her friend and said in a low voice, “My ribbon.” The doctor gave it to her and she smiled happily.It was only a little gift, but it made the girl’s stay in the hospital bright with beauty and love.45.

Doctors are kind people.B. Gifts are important for patients.C. A little gift can bring great happiness.D. Hospitals are places with beauty and love.CTelecommutingFor most people, a usual workday means waking up, eating breakfast, driving to the office, working for about 8 hours and then driving back home. But not all workers have this experience. Many people work from their homes. This kind of work is called telecommuting or telework. A person who telecommutes is called a telecommuter.People have worked in their homes for thousands of years. But the modern idea of telecommuting started in the early 1970s. Improvements in technology, especially networking technology, helped support the development of telework. As communication technology became cheaper and more powerful, telecommuting became more of a choice for workers.Both companies and individuals（个人）can benefit from telework. One benefit for companies is that it can save money. It can also help improve morale. This is because workers who have choices about how they work are often happier. If workers are happier, they are likely to do better jobs. This is good for the company. As for individuals, they can save money by cutting down their transportation costs. They also save time because they do not have to go to the office every day. Depending on how often they work from home, telecommuters can save between 15 and 25 workdays every year.Even though there are many benefits to telework, there are also some disadvantages. Managers are worried about losing control of the workers. If the worker is not in the office, managers don’t know what they are doing. Teleworking can also be bad for a person’s working life. Managers are more likely to give a promotion（升职）to workers that they see every day, so telecommuters have less chance of getting promoted than regular workers. As telecommuters often work alone, another bad effect of telecommuting is separation from other peoples.Telecommuting has a place in the society today. Helped by more powerful technologies, teleworkers of the future will be able to communicate in new and improved ways. This will make telework better and make sure that it will have a more important place in the future.49. What does telecommuting mean?A. Driving to work.B. Working from home.C. Working in an office.D. Working for 8 hours a day.50. What does the underlined word “morale” probably mean?A. Health.B. Abilities.C. Spirits.D. Wealth.51. What’s one of the disadvantages of telecommuting?A. It makes a worker unfit and upset.B. It makes a worker uninterested in his job.C. It makes a worker have less chance of promotion.D. It makes a worker have worse control of his time.52. What can we learn from the passage?A. Telework will get improved in the future.B. Telework has a history of hundreds of years.C. Teleworkers work for more days every year.D. Teleworkers are good at communicating with others.DManaging StressMany of us experience stress in life, so do the kids. “It’s the hardest time of life,” says Kim “Tip” Frank, writer of Battling the Blues, Grades 3-8: The Handbook for Helping Children and Teens With Depression. “Kids need direction and confidence.” Here are some common complains of overstressed middle schoolers and what parents can do to help.“I don’t have any friends.”First, t ell your children that she’ll get through this difficult period. “There will be times when you are alone,” Frank says. “Being alone is better than changing who you are to fit in with the popular crowd.”Some kids need more clear instruction on how to make friends. Parents can help by having a discussion with their child about what a real friend is. Ask your child what qualities（品质）hewants in a friend. Then you help him find some possible friends. Remind your child that not all friendships work out and talk to him about how to be a good friend.“My best friend doesn’t like me any more.”It’s common for best friends to separate during middle school. When it happens, it’s painful and makes your child feel left behind.“To help your child deal with this problem, first encourage her to make it clear to her friend that she wants to keep the friendship going.” Frank says. Then, remind her that if her friend chooses to end the friendship, it’s out of her control. “You can only control one side of the relation ship,” he says.Talk to your child about why friends move on or pull away. Tell your child she will make new friends. It hurts, but it often ends up with working out for the best for both children.“I made a mistake! I’m a failure!”Teachers see a lot of p erfectionism in today’s kids. These kids get upset if they get a B on a paper. They are often overstresses.“Perfectionist kids are often driven by parents.” As a parent, see whether you are pushing your child to feel like she can’t make a single mistake. Do you talk about top schools every day? Do you make a huge deal out of a grade that isn’t an A? “You can ask your child, ‘Why do you think you have to get straight A’s’”Frank says. There’s more to life. Parents can offer their children opportunities to h ave fun. “Model hard work, relaxation, laughter, and joy,” he says. “It’s not what you say to kids, it’s how you live.”53.

sent the girl a nice little note_____her for a drink．（）A.invitedB.invitingC.to be invitingD.invite【答案】B【解析】答案：B分析句意可知，"_____her for a drink"在句中作后置定语，修饰a nice little note，其中动词invite与逻辑主语Nigel构成主谓关系，故应选动词的现在分词形式；C．to be inviting是动词不定式的进行时，表示正在进行的或与谓语动词同时发生的动作，用在此处不合句意；故选BNigel给那个女孩送了一张邀请她喝一杯的温馨的小便条．本题考查了动词的现在分词作定语的用法．做本题时，首先根据句意确定空缺处在句中所作的成分，找到动词与逻辑主语之间的关系；其次要正确区分现在分词，过去分词以及动词不定式的用法及区别．3.George decided it was such a rare car that he_____it only for a few exhibitions．（）edB.was usingC.had usedD.would use【答案】D【解析】答案：D根据主句中的decided使用了一般过去时以及句意（由于他认为这辆车非常罕见，所以将只用它做几次展览．）可知，从句应使用过去将来时，故选DGeorge认为这是一辆非常罕见的车，他将只用它做几次展览．本题考查了情态动词would的用法：在陈述语气中，通常用于第二、三人称，表示过去将来时，意为"将，会"．做本题时，需要根据句意，主句中时态的提示以及情态动词would的用法，选出正确答案．4.She read a poem by Carver_____describes his life in the countryside．（）A.whoB.whichC.whatD.whose【答案】B【解析】答案：B分析句意可知，"_____describes his life in the countryside"在句中做定语，修饰前面的名词a poem by Carver，因此本句是定语从句；由于a poem（一首诗）在从句中作主语，因此此处应选指物并且可以作主语的关系代词which；关系代词who可以作主语，但指人；whose的意思是"…的…"其后要加名词；what不是关系代词，不能用于定语从句；故选B她读了一首由雷蒙德．卡佛（Carver）写的诗，这首诗描述了他在乡下的生活．本题考查了定语从句中关系代词的用法．做本题时，首先根据句意判断本句为定语从句，其次根据先行词的意义及在从句中所作的成分，来选择相应的关系代词；另外还应熟练掌握各关系代词的用法及区别；最后要记住疑问代词what可以引导主语从句，表语从句，宾语从句等；但由于它不是关系代词，不能用于定语从句中．5.A team of scientists_____the effects of acid rain over the last twenty-year period．（）A.studiedB.had studiedC.is studyingD.has been studying【答案】D【解析】答案：D．根据时间状语over the last twenty-year

newspapers．（）A.has buriedB.had buriedC.has been buriedD.had been buried【答案】D【解析】答案：D．my handbag与bury之间应该是逻辑上的动宾关系，用被动语态，排除A和B；且被掩埋这个动作发生在我找到之前，即过去的过去，用过去完成时，排除C；故选D．最后我找到了我的包，它被埋在一堆旧报纸里．对于时态的题型要分析句子的具体语境，并且结合句子的内容综合分析方能得出答案．8.My mum's letters really encouraged me_____my

place_____many came to talk about their hopes and fears．（）A.whichB.thatC.whereD.when【答案】C【解析】答案：C分析句子结构可知，"_____many came to talk about their hopes and fears．"在句中作定语，用来修饰前面的名词a place，因此本句是定语从句；由于从句中缺少地点状语，所以应选表示地点的关系副词where；A．B．是关系代词；D．是表示时间的关系副词；故选：C该中心成为许多人前来谈论他们的希望与恐惧的地方．本题考查了关系副词的用法．做本题时，首先应根据句意确定本句为定语从句；其次根据先行词在从句中所作的成分，选择相应的关系词；最后应牢固掌握关系词的意义及用法．例如：关系副词where在从句中作地点状语，when作时间状语；关系代词that（可以指人也可以指物），which（只能指物）在从句中作主语或宾语等．10.I always check the prices of different brands_____I make a major purchase．（）A.beforeB.becauseC.althoughD.where【答案】A【解析】答案A．before"在…之前；才…"，引导时间状语从句．because"因为"，引导原因状语从句．although"尽管，虽然"，引导让步状语从句．where"在…地方"，引导地点状语从句．分析可知前后两句话之间是逻辑上的"时间"关系，再结合句子所表达的意思可知答案选A．在我购买之前，我总是会检查不同品牌的价格．本题考查从属连词的用法．连词的用法辨析，要注意分析主从句之间的逻辑关系，再确定相应的连词，同时注意不同的连词的语义及用法区别．11.Fresh

laboratory in the school，it is important to check_____the students can use it．（）A.whichB.whatC.whenD.where【答案】C【解析】答案C．check后面接的是宾语从句the students can use it．从句the students can use it不缺少主语与宾语，可排除答案A和B．因为which 引导宾语从句时，在从句中作主语、宾语、表语或定语，意为"哪一个"，表示在有限的范围内的某一个．what引导宾语从句时，在从句中作主语、宾语、表语．然后根据语境应是学生何时使用它，不是在哪里使用，故选C．因为学校里只有一个实验室，核实学生何时能使用它是很重要的．考查的是宾语从句，做此类题要理解句子的大意，以及连接词的用法．13._____myself enough time to catch the train，I set my alarm for five in the morning．（）A.GiveB.Being givenC.To giveD.Given【答案】C【解析】答案：C不等式作目的状语．题干所给句子中间有逗号分隔，没有连词，要用非谓语动词；give与句子的主语I之间构成主动关系．故选C．为了给自己足够的时间赶火车，我把闹钟调到了早上五点．不等式是非谓语动词的一种，用法灵活．按句子成分来划分有：主语（通常借助形式主语it）；宾语/表语；定语；状语；补语等．14.If Julia had practised hard enough last night，she_____more confident on the stage now．（）A.isB.would beC.had beenD.would have been【答案】B【解析】答案B．由语境可知：从句表示与过去事实相反的假设，主句则表示与现在事实相反．那么主句的结构为：would+do，故选B．如果朱丽亚昨晚练习够认真的话，那么她现在在舞台上更自信．在表示虚拟语气的句子中，条件从句表示的动作与主句表示的动作发生的时间并不一致，这时，谓语动词的形式要根据各自表示的时间来调整，这种现象叫作错综时间虚拟语气，也称作混合虚拟语气．例：If you had taken your medicine yesterday，you would be quite all right now．如果你昨天吃了药的话，现在就已经痊愈了．（从句表示与过去事实相反的假设，主句则表示与现在事实相反．）15._____with two over-packed suitcases，I arrived at the airport just in time for my

room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night．I used to take long walks along the water．The food in town was wonderful and the people were very friendly．The area was very quiet and peaceful，and fairly deserted．The last evening of our vacation，however，we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our room in the holiday centre．We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us．He was tall and wore a baseball cap．We couldn't see his face and he

hear fear in it．It was late and we were all alone．We didn't have any cell phones on us．I never saw Dad as worried as he was then and I knew that something was terribly wrong．The sense of fear started to overwhelm Mom and me．We had had such a good time in town．Now，the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation．We could hear the man's footsteps getting closer．Dad's face was almost pale．The so-called intruder （侵入者）had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden，the nearby vending（自动贩卖）machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda!The noise actually scared the intruder and he

over 30years，Rainbow Montessori in Addison has given children a place to grow and explore the world around them，and they're still going strong today．With 20years in the same location，the school is"not going anywhere，"says Dave Rodenborn，a son of the school's founders．As general director，Dave has overseen many improvements，including a new playground for the preschool and a complete modernization．The school serves families of children from 6weeks to 6th grade．This allows them to have programs in baby care，preschool，kindergarten，and elementary（小学）．The curriculum has developed over the decades，most notably in the Elementary．At first somewhat jokingly referred to as"Monte-sorta，"due to its relaxed application of the Montessori Method，the school's elementary now stresses a more traditional Montess environment．Montessori associates abstract concepts with concrete sensorial（感觉的）experiences，ensuring that children are involved in learning，not just memorization．Classrooms still have a creative，casual feel，with children having freedom of choice，but in keeping with Montessori principles，they work within a framework．This helps them learn about freedom within limits，maximizing their potential．The truly international Rainbow Montessori staff comes from a wide range of backgrounds，all Montessori-trained．"They are an energetic，devoted group，"says Dave．"They are loyal，caring and like what they do a lot．I'd say a good 30to 40percent of them have been here for almost a decade or more．"Dave says that his favorite part of being at Rainbow Montessori is"making things grow"．By that，he doesn't mean it in the sense of the organic，but by"coming up with good solutions to problems as they occur．"This is reflective of Montessori beliefs，in which each child learns to use the right tools and discover solutions for themselves．Dave credits a strong staff and great parents with lots of patience for helping to make Rainbow Montessori an ideal place for children to learn and grow．Rainbow

things，that the smell of foods like pizza can cause uncontrollable anger in drivers on roads．The review explains that smell is unique in its effects on the brain．According to Conrad King，the researcher who carried out the review，"more than any other senses，the sense of smell goes through the logical part of the brain and acts on the systems concerned with feelings．This is why the smell of baking bread can destroy the best intentions of a dieter．" Smell，which dictates the unbelievable complexity of food tastes，has always been the least understood of our senses．Our noses are able to detect up to 10，000distinct smells．Our ability to smell and taste this extremely large range of smells is controlled by something like 1，000genes （基因），which make up an amazing 3% of the human genome．Researchers Richard Axel and Linda Buck were together awarded a Nobel Prize in 2004for their ground-breaking research on the nature of this extraordinary sense．These two scientists were the first to describe the family of 1，000olfactory （嗅觉）genes and to explain how our olfactory system works．According to one study in the research review，smelling fresh pizza or even the packaging of fast foods can be enough to make drivers feel impatient with other road users．They are thenmore likely to speed and experience uncontrollable anger on roads．The most reasonable explanation is that these can all make drivers feel hungry，and therefore desperate to satisfy their appetites．In contrast，the smells of peppermint and cinnamon were shown to improve concentration levels as well as reduce drivers'impatience．Similarly，the smells of lemon and coffee appeared to promote clear thinking and mental focus．However，the way genes regulate smell differs from person to person．A study by researchers in Israel has identified at least 50olfactory genes which are switched on in some people and not in others．They believe this may explain why some of us love some smells and tastes while others hate them．The Israel researchers say their study shows that nearly every human being shows a different pattern of active and inactive smell-detecting receptors．43.What did Richard Axel and Linda Buck find out？______A.The category of food smells．B.The logical part of human brain．C.The nature of human olfactory system．D.The relationship between food and feelings．44.Which of the following can help people concentrate？______A.Bread．B.Fruits．C.Coffee．D.Fast food．45.What do we know from the last paragraph？______A.Some people can recognize up to 50smells．B.Every person has a different pattern of genes．C.Different people are sensitive to different smells．D.There are still some olfactory genes to be found out．46.What is the passage mainly about？______A.Logic and behaviour．B.Smell and its influence．C.Sense ability and food tastes．D.Olfactory genes and its system．【答案】【小题1】C【小题2】C【小题3】C【小题4】B【解析】63．C细节理解题．根据第三段These two scientists were the first to describe the family of 1，000olfactory （嗅觉）genes and to explain how our olfactory system works．可知Richard Axel和Linda Buck这两位科学家首先描述了家族嗅觉基因并解释了我们的嗅觉系统的工作原理．由此推知，这俩位科学家揭示了人类嗅觉系统的本质．故选C．64．C细节理解题．根据第五段Similarly，the smells of lemon and coffee appeared to promote clear thinking and mental focus．可知喝咖啡有助于提高思考和注意力．故选C．65．C推理判断题．根据最后一段their study shows that nearly every human being shows a different pattern of active and inactive smell-detecting receptors．可知不同的人对不同的气味敏感．故选C．66．B主旨大意题．本文主要介绍了人类嗅觉的巨大能量及其对我们的影响．故选B．本文是一篇科教类阅读．文章主要介绍了人类嗅觉的巨大能量及其对我们的影响．不同的人对不同的气味敏感，喝咖啡有助于提高思考和注意力．本文考察学生的理解推断能力以及细心程度，只要抓住文章的关键词，采用寻读的方法查找细节，就能找到正确答案．DCamaraderie over CompetenceThe importance of liking people is the subject of an article in the Harvard Business Review，which has carried out an experiment to find out who we'd rather work with．Hardly surprisingly，the people we want most as our workmates are both：brilliant at their jobs and delightful human beings．And the people we want least are both unpleasant and useless．More interestingly，the authors found that，given the choice between working with lovable fools and competent jerks （性情古怪的人），we irresistibly choose the former．Anyway，who likes those stupid men who annoy or hurt other people？We might insist that competence matters more，but our behavior shows we stay close to the people we like and sharing information with them．What companies should therefore do is get people to like each other more．The trick here is apparently to make sure staffs come across each other as often as possible during the day．They also should be sent on bonding courses and so on to encourage friendliness and break down displeasure．However，more outdoor-activity weekends and shared coffee machines inspire no confidence at all．The reality is that people either like each other or they don't．You can't force it．Possibly you can make offices friendlier by tolerating a lot of chat，but there is a productivity cost to that．In my experience，the question of lovable fool against competent jerk may not be the right one．The two are interrelated：we tend not to like our workmates when they are completely hopeless．I was once quite friendly with a woman whom I later worked with．I found her to be so outstandingly bad at her job that I lost respect for her and ended up not really liking her at all．Then is there anything that companies should be doing about it？By far the most effective strategy would be to hire people who are all pretty much the same，given that similarity is one of the main determinants of whether we like each other．I think this is a pretty good idea，but no one dares recommend this anymore without offending the diversity lobby group．There is only one acceptable view on this subject：teams of similar people are bad because they stop creativity．This may be true，though I have never seen any conclusive proof of it．Not only do we like similar people，we like people who like us．So if companies want to promote more liking，they should encourage a culture where we are all nice to each other．The trouble is that this needs to be done with some skill．47.According to the research，which kind of colleagues would most people tend to choose？______A.Nice but unintelligent．B.Creative but unattractive．petent but unfriendly．D.Humorous but unambitious．48.The author talks about her experience to show that ______ ．A.people respect outstanding leadersB.people tend to like optimistic workmatesC.a workmate's working ability is importantD.talkative workmates makes offices friendlier49.Some people think that similar people working together may ______A.offend each otherB.create fewer new ideasC.talk more and work lessD.be likely to stick together50.To encourage workmates to like each other，companies could ______ ．A.arrange the training course for workers to study togetheranize team-building activities outside the officeC.encourage a diversity of opinions in workplaceD.employ staff who have a lot in common．【答案】【小题1】A【小题2】C【小题3】B【小题4】D【解析】67．答案A 细节理解题；根据第一段中the people we want most as our workmates are both：brilliant at their jobs anddelightful human beings．可知人们乐于与聪明且乐观的人一起共事，故选项A正确．68．答案C 细节理解题；根据第三段we tend not to like our workmates when they are completely hopeless．一句，可知同事的能力很重要．故答案选C．69．答案B 细节理解题；根据第四段中teams of similar people are bad because they stop creativity．可知相似的人在一起工作会阻碍创新能力．答案B正确．70．答案D 推理判断题；根据最后一段Not only do we like similar people，we like people who like us．So if companies want to promote more liking，they should encourage a culturewhere we are all nice to each other．可知，故答案D正确．本文通过调查发现人们乐于与聪明乐观，工作能力强的人一起工作，因为同事的能力很重要，相似的人在一起工作会阻碍创新能力，并据此为企业提供了一些建议．细节理解的解题技巧：1．扫题干2．抓关键词3．定位置4．研选项（干扰项的特点）1）以偏概全与原句的内容相似，但在程度有变动2）无中生有明显不是文章的信息3）夸大/缩小是原文信息，但故意增加或减少细节4）偷梁换柱偷换文中细小信息5）半真半假信息部分正确，部分错误6）答非所问是原文信息，但不是题干要求的内容IV、信息匹配(本大题共5小题，共3.0分)HomeworkDo

going on in class．And it helps strengthen important concepts．（72）______ It's inviting to start with the easy things to get them out of the way．However，you'll have the most energy and focus when you begin，so it's best to use this mental power on the subjects that are most challenging．Later，when you're more tired，you can focus on the simpler things．If you get stuck on a problem，try to figure it out as well as you can-but don't spend too much time on it because this can mess up your homework schedule for the rest of the night．（73）______ But don't pick someone whom you'll be up all night chatting with，or you'll never get it done!Most people's attention spans aren't very long，so take some breaks while doing your homework．Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often．Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most。
