19．My life has changed since I took part in a self-help seminar（培訓(xùn)會(huì)）．
One Friday morning my parents drove me to a three-day self-help seminar for teens called the Landmark Forum．After we arrived，my parents left me there．
During the first course，the leader of the Landmark Forum asked us，"What's your racket？"He explained that everyone had a"racket"-a bad way of behaving．He said that you couldn't be happy until you gave up your"racket"．My""racket"was lying．I lied about a lot of things to make myself happy．I was always lying to others．I felt happy when people told me I was a good liar（說(shuō)謊者）．However，I felt sad that day when I heard a girl say that she hated liars．
When the first day ended，I was actually looking forward to the next day's courses because I had made some new friends．
On Saturday，many teenagers started to change．One of my new friends returned the toy bear he had stolen the day before to its owner．He told me that he had never felt so good and relaxed before，and he suggested that I try giving up my"racket'．
When I got home from the Landmark Forum，I tried to stop lying and started to take part in ball games and other activities at school．Now I don't hate life any longer．I love it!I never knew I could be so happy．That seminar actually changed my life．

分析 我的生活已經(jīng)改變了自從我參加了一個(gè)自助研討會(huì)．一個(gè)周五的上午，我的父母開(kāi)車(chē)送我去一個(gè)為期三天的自助研討會(huì)稱(chēng)為里程碑式的論壇．當(dāng)我們到達(dá)時(shí)，我的父母離開(kāi)了我．在第一次課程，具有里程碑意義的論壇領(lǐng)袖問(wèn)我們，"你的racket是什么？"他解釋說(shuō)，每個(gè)人都有一個(gè)"racket"--一個(gè)壞的行為．他說(shuō)，你無(wú)法快樂(lè)，直到你放棄了你的"racket"．我的"racket"是撒謊．我說(shuō)謊很來(lái)讓自己快樂(lè)．我總是成功地欺騙別人．我感到快樂(lè)當(dāng)人們告訴我我是一個(gè)非常好的騙子．然而，我感到難過(guò)，當(dāng)我聽(tīng)到一個(gè)女孩說(shuō)，她討厭說(shuō)謊的那一天．第一天結(jié)束時(shí)，我其實(shí)是期待第二天的課程，因?yàn)槲医涣艘恍┬屡笥眩瞧诹S多青少年開(kāi)始改變．我的一個(gè)新朋友歸還了他偷了前一天偷到的玩具熊．他告訴我他從未感到如此輕松，他建議我嘗試放棄我的"racket"．當(dāng)我從論壇回到家，我試圖停止說(shuō)謊和在學(xué)校開(kāi)始參加球類(lèi)運(yùn)動(dòng)和其他活動(dòng)．現(xiàn)在不再討厭生活了．我愛(ài)它!我從不知道我可以這么快樂(lè)．這研討會(huì)真的改變了我的生活方式．

解答 36．B細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)短文第二段中 One Friday morning my parents drove me to a three-day self-help seminar 可以確定交流會(huì)共有三天，故選B．
37．A細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)My""racket"was lying可知作者的球拍是說(shuō)謊，故選A．
38．D細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)One of my new friends returned the toy bear he had stolen the day before to its owner．He told me that he had never felt so good and relaxed before可知我的一個(gè)新朋友歸還了他偷了前一天偷到的玩具熊．所以他從未感到如此輕松，故選D．
39．B 段落大意題．根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可知作者改掉了說(shuō)謊的毛病，感到很快樂(lè)，故選B．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一篇記敘文文章．做題時(shí)要在理解好文意的基礎(chǔ)上，與題目有機(jī)的結(jié)合，從文章中找到相關(guān)細(xì)節(jié)性的句子與選項(xiàng)細(xì)細(xì)比對(duì)，進(jìn)行選擇或推理判斷，選出符合文章內(nèi)容的正確選項(xiàng)．做題注意靈活，有時(shí)可采用排除法或直選法確定出最終答案．

Great changes have taken place in our studiesIn the past，teachers kept on explaining the language points in class．We students just listened and took some notes．So we didn't have enough time to think about problems by ourselves/independently．We had to do much homework after class．But now teachers show the problems to us first，then we discuss them for a while in pairs or groups．We try to find out the ways of solving problems，through which we've learnt how to work/study/cooperate with others．After class，we can have different activities．For example，we can read books we like，go to the library or surf the Internet for useful information and so on．
In a word，now we are the owners of our study and we're happy．．

14．Even kids know that we should wait f or the traffic light to turn green before crossing a road，but not everybody follows this basic rule．
"Chinese style road crossing"has become a hot expression recently．Chinese people"cross roads without thinking about traffic lights，so long as they are part of a cro wd"，said a post on Sina Weibo．
    A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour，more than 600 people ran red lights when crossing a road in Shijiazhuang，Hebei．
Many people say that they jaywalk （亂穿馬路） because the red light lasts too long．Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University．
    The team did research on people's waiting times at different road crossings from 2008 to 2010．They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience．
"People are likely to run the red lightwhen the waiting time is longer than they can bear （忍受），"said Ni Ying，a member of the research team．
     However，a survey on Sina Weibo shows that nearly half of respondents （調(diào)查對(duì)象） believe that people jaywalk mainly because they disregard （忽視） rules．
"I always obey（遵守） traffic rules．Time is important but safety should come first，"wrote"Qixiaoe"on Weibo．
     Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers．In Singapore，the maximum can be three months in prison．Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions，too．For example，the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined （罰款） 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang．
     But calling on people to respect rules is more important．"To completely solve the problem，everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules，"Wang Jianping，a professor at Sichuan University，said to Huaxi Metropolis Daily．

91．What does the phrase"the team"in Paragraph 5 refer to（指的是）？B
A．A CCTV news program．
B．A research group at Tong ji University
C．A post on Sina Weibo．
D．Huaxi Metropolis Daily．
92．How long will Chinese people wait for to cross the road before they lose patience？C
A．Less than one minute．
B．About five minutes．
C．Less than one and a half minutes．
D．More than ten minutes．
93．In the sentence"People are likely to run the red light"，we can useAto take  the place of"be likely to"．
A．may                         
B．love to            
C．be able to                
D．be going to
94．Why do people jaywalk according to the survey on Sina Weibo？C
A．Because there are too many people on the road．
B．Because the red light lasts too long．
C．Because people don't pay much attention to rules．
D．Because people have less patience．
95．Wang Jianping suggests that we shouldDto solve the problem of jaywalking．
A．punish the jaywalkers                             
B．disregard the traffic rules
C．reduce the time of red lights                           
D．call on people to obey the traffic rules．

11．Noah Webster was born on October 16，1758，in the West Division of Hartford，where his father farmed and worked as a weaver．His mother was a housewife．
Few people went to college at that time，but Noah loved so much to learn that his parents let him go to Yale，Connecticut's only college．Noah graduated in 1778．He desired （渴望） to study law，but his parents didn't have more money to send him to school．So，in order to make a living，Noah taught in Glastonbury，Hartford and West Harford．Later he studied law．
Noah did not like American schools．Sometimes 70children of all ages were crammed （擠滿） into one room schoolhouses with poor books and untrained teachers．Their books came from England．Noah thought that Americans should learn from American books so in 1783．Noah wrote his own textbook A Grammatical Institute of the English Language．Mot people called it the"Blue Backed Speller"because of its blue cover．
For 100years，Noah's book taught children how to read，spell，and pronounce words．It was the most popular American book of its time．Ben Franklin used Noah's book to teach his granddaughter to read．
When Noah was 43，he started writing the first American dictionary．He did that because Americans in different parts of the country spelled，pronounced and used words differently．He thought that all Americans should speak in the same way．He also thought that Americans should not speak and spell just like the English．Noah used American spellings like color instead of the English color and music instead of musick．He also added American words that weren't in English dictionaries like skunk and souash．He spent over 27years writing his dictionary．When Noah accomplished （完成） his dictionary in 1828，at the age of 70，the first American dictionary came out．It had 70.000words in it．
Noah did many things in his life．He worked for copyright laws，wrote textbooks，Americanized the English language，and edited magazines．When Noah Webster died in 1843，he was considered an American hero．

◆1801：Noah started writing the first American dictionary because he realized it was （91）necessaryfor all Americans to speak in the same way．Also，he thought all Americans should speak and spell in their （92）ownway．
◆1828：The first American dictionary wasn't （93）accomplished/finisheduntil Noah was 70years old．It （94）tookhim over 27years to write it．
