【題目】Larry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探險(xiǎn))but this time, it was different. He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.

Larry first began diving when he was his daughter’s age. Similarly, his father had taken him along on one of his expeditions. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them. They were either too big or too small. Then, there was the instructor. He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception. Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide. Children his age were not even allowed to dive.

After the first expedition, Larry’s later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures

Larry’s first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them. Fortunately for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for free. Larry did not even know what the time was, how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide array of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.

Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than Larry had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.

【1】In what way was this expedition different for Larry?

A. His daughter had grown up.

B. He had become a famous diver.

C. His father would dive with him.

D. His daughter would dive with him.

【2】What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?

A. Larry had some privileges.

B. Larry liked the rented diving suits.

C. Divers had to buy diving equipment.

D. Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.

【3】Why did Larry have to stay in a cage underwater sometimes?

A.To protect himself from danger.

B.To dive into the deep water.

C.To admire the underwater view.

D.To take photos more conveniently.

【4】What did Larry expect his daughter to do?

A.Become a successful diver.

B.Make a good diving guide.

C.Take a lot of photos underwater.

D.Have longer hours of training.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】A

【4】A

【解析】

試題分析:本文敘述了著名的潛水專家Larry回憶自己第一次潛水的事情,并敘述了他帶著自己10歲的女兒繼承家族傳統(tǒng)開始了潛水之旅。

【1】D 考查細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第一段第2句He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old.可知這次探險(xiǎn)的特別之處在于,他要帶著10歲的女兒一起進(jìn)行深海探險(xiǎn)。故D正確。

【2】A 推理題。本題可以利用排除法。根據(jù)第二段4、5句Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them.可知他不喜歡外租的潛水衣,所以B項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)第4句Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop可知他只要租潛水衣就可以了,不需要購買。故C錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)本段最后一句Children his age were not even allowed to dive.可知10歲的孩子是不被允許去潛水的。故D錯(cuò)誤。同時(shí)其他10歲的孩子不能潛水,但是他卻可以,正說明他有特權(quán)。故A正確。

【3】A 推理題。根據(jù)第三段4、5句Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him.可知水下有很多危險(xiǎn)的事物,為了保護(hù)他,他會(huì)被放在籠子里。但是這并沒有阻止他拍攝很多美麗的照片。故A正確。

【4】A 推理題。根據(jù)最后一段第3句He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition.可知他希望自己的女兒能夠延續(xù)家族的傳統(tǒng),也就是成為成功的潛水者。故A正確。

When we get some money as a gift, how to deal with the money becomes a problem we must face. From my perspective, the answers are diverse in different periods. However, no matter how you deal with the money, the most important thing is to use it wisely.

In my childhood, when the cartoons about the car race extremely attracted me, I would use the money I received to buy toy cars. But when I entered the school, toys could not attract me. In this period, the things I wanted most were some electronic products. I always hurried to buy the up-to-date mobile phone immediately I received money as a gift.

Now I have got a job, the things above me not important for me. I do not need some useless things or something I have already had. Probably, saving money in the bank is my best choice.

In conclusion, if I receive a sum of money, in different periods I may have different choices. Whatever I choose to do with the gift of money, it must make me feel happy.

Four Ways to Be a Great Roommate

Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in college or, easily, one of the worst。 【1】 Follow these tips to avoid the common mistakes that turn good roommate relationships sour.

Talk things out.

Communication is key. If something happens, sit down with your roommate and have a face-to-face conversation. I've seen roommate relationships fall apart because something happens and ,instead of talking to each other, the two start complaining about their roommates behind their backs 2

Don't expect to be best friends.

Some roommates become the best of friends, and some don't. Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate, especially when you first meet. 3 And if your roommate doesn't end up being your best friend, don't worry.

Ask before you take.

This applies to food, clothes and anything else. If you want to keep a relationship going, show your roommate that you have respect for what is his or hers by asking first. 4

Clean up after yourself.

This should do without saying. Don't be lazy. Or, at least, don't bury your roommate in your clothes and garbage. Most people I've come across in college are messy. 5 But being considerate with where you put your stuff will help you avoid conflict.

A. So you need to think twice before you help your roommates out.

B. This creates nothing but awkward. situations and unhappiness.

C. Even if you both agree to share you should still ask.

D. You don't have all the time to clean your room and keep it organized.

E. It all starts with you to have a good relationship with your roommate.

F. Sometime you get stuck with someone who has tons of negative energy.

G. Remember, you're trying to make a new friend, not to scare your roommate away.

Going to college is a new experience full of excitement of the unknown. Socialization is a big thing for college students and it is common to feel a little uncomfortable going into a situation where everyone is a stranger. You may probably miss your friends from high school.【1】 College is a great opportunity to make new lifelong friends. The question is: how?

▲Get to know your roommate.

You may find you have lots of things in common with your roommate, but even if you are completely different from each other, with a little effort and understanding the two of you may become best friends.

【2】

If you leave your door open, this shows that you welcome visitors. As a result people will naturally stop in and say hello. Closed doors are not likely to bring many visitors and those who stay locked up in their rooms may give others the impression of being cold. Other students will be less likely to stop in and build a new friendship.

▲Join clubs or organizations.

Getting involved in organized societies is a great way to meet new people.【3】 By staying active in college groups such as clubs and organizations you can meet lots of people with whom you share common interests.

▲Talk to classmates.

【4】 Starting conversations in class is a great opportunity to meet people who are interested in the same kind of studies as you are. Short friendly discussions can build lifelong friendships.

▲Try out for a sport.

If you' re athletic, trying out for a sport will do for you the same thing that joining a club will do. 【5】

A. Close the door to keep away from theft.

B. Hang a welcome sign on your dorm room.

C. It also helps you get more familiar with the campus.

D. Your roommate is the first person you will have close contact with.

E. You will instantly meet a large group of people who share your interests in sports.

F. Get to know your classmates as you'll be spending several months with them.

G. Trying actively to find new friends can help ease the feelings of being lonely.
