There were many problems when people first moved into the cities in the US and UK. Many lived in bad conditions in poor housing. The governments on sides of the Atlantic, worked to improve the living conditions of city dwellers (居民). For a while, especially in the U.S., city life came to be seen as the best and most exciting way to live. Living in the rural areas was regarded as boring. Who wanted to be struggling to a living in the country doing hard agricultural labor?
Many in the UK believed that they had a much better chance of improving themselves in the city. It would be (easy) to move from the ranks of manual laborers to the middle classes they could get better jobs and education. However, Britain has always had a deep love of the beauty and peacefulness of the countryside. The upper classes have always liked to have a both in London and in the country.

They want to move to a village, small town or small holding outside of the city they can have more space and some peace and quiet. Developments in transportation that people can continue longer distance, so more people are living as far as they can from urban centers.

the primary schools, are better in smaller villages. The classes are smaller and some say there will be more positive influence on their children and that their social life will be more fulfilling and nurturing.

【解析】本文是一篇記敘文,通過(guò)人們對(duì)于鄉(xiāng)村和城市居住的不同看法,寫出了各自的利弊。
①考查代詞的用法。美國(guó)和英國(guó)兩個(gè)國(guó)家,兩個(gè)都用both。
②考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)的用法。謀生:make/earn a living。
③考查形容詞的比較級(jí)。與后面中產(chǎn)階級(jí)作比較。
④考查連詞的用法。句意:如果他們可以得到更好的工作和教育,他們從手工業(yè)者上升到中產(chǎn)階級(jí)就會(huì)更容易。
⑤考查名詞的用法。句意:上層階級(jí)總是喜歡在倫敦和鄉(xiāng)下都擁有一個(gè)房子。
⑥考查介詞的用法。夏天去農(nóng)村度假。
⑦考查形容詞的用法。Become為系動(dòng)詞,后用形容詞作表語(yǔ)。
⑧考查定語(yǔ)從句的用法。先行詞為city,定語(yǔ)從句中缺地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ),因此用where。
⑨考查動(dòng)詞的用法。句意:交通的發(fā)展意味著人們可以繼續(xù)更遠(yuǎn)的路程,這樣更多的人盡可能遠(yuǎn)的遠(yuǎn)離城市中心。

【題目】閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
Freshmen are always fearful when learning they are to live with a roommate of a different race assigned by the computer casually. They are full of worry at the uncertainties. Now several studies have found that sharing a room with a man of another race is a mixture of hope and fear. It decreases prejudice and forces students to make friends with those of different races, meanwhile causes more conflicts.
An Ohio State University study found that black students living with a white roommate saw higher academic success at college. Sam Boakye — the only black student on his freshman year floor — said “if you're surrounded by whites, you have something to prove like a good score in study.”
However, researchers also observed problems in this case. According to two recent studies, compared with two white roommates, roommates of different races may experience such big conflicts that one has to move out and live separately.
Grace Kao, a professor at Penn said she was not surprised by the findings. In her opinion, this may be the first time that some of these students have lived with someone of a different race.
At Penn, students are not asked to mention race when applying for their housing. In this way, students are thrown together randomly.
“In the past two years, I've experienced roommate conflicts between interracial students,” said one Penn resident advisor (RA). To give a better picture, she added that some conflicts provided more multicultural acceptance, but some showed unpleasant differences. Besides, these conflicts have also occurred among roommates of the same race.
Kao said it was unscientific to conclude from any one of the above studies, saying scientists must study more students' background characteristics.
(1)According to several studies, what’s the advantage of sharing a room with a man of another race?
A.It makes them feel at ease although one has to move out and live separately.
B.It reduces prejudice and make students of different races become friends.
C.It causes more conflicts among roommates of different races.
D.It makes all of them achieve higher academic success at college.
(2)How is this text mainly developed?
A.By following time order.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By giving examples.
D.By making classification.
(3)The underlined word randomly in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to__________.
A.casually
B.intentionally
C.specially
D.carelessly
(4)What's Grace Kao's opinion about the conclusions from the studies?
A.It was scientific.
B.It was convincing.
C.It was believable.
D.It was unscientific.
(5)What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.We should do some research.
B.We should help each other.
C.We should draw a conclusion in a scientific way.
D.We can draw a conclusion from our study.

【題目】Anne LaBastille was born in New York City and grew up in New Jersey. Her first experience with the wilderness was in the Adirondacks in the northeast of New York, where she worked at a summer resort to earn money for college tuition by caring for the horses, giving riding lessons, and working as a waitress. And she has many chances to begin her adventure in the Adirondack wilderness.

Anne returned to school in the fall, but she continued to spend as much time as she could in the Adirondacks. She grew to love her time alone in the mountains. Anne graduated from college with a bachelor’s degree in conservation of natural resources and began working for the National Audubon Society in Florida as a wildlife tour leader.

Although Anne took great pleasure in showing people the animals living in the Florida Keys and the Everglades National Park, she longed for the mountains in the northern parts of New York. Eventually, she decided to build a cabin near Black Bear Lake. Over the years, however, more and more tourists began hiking near her cabin. As a result, Anne decided to build another cabin deeper in the woods at Lily Pad Lake.

Anne lived in the woods for most of her life. She enjoyed living alone in the woods, and her life was far too busy for her to be lonely. When she was not writing books, she wrote articles for National Geographic, Reader’s Digest, and other magazines. In her later years, Anne conducted research in Guatemala on an endangered bird called the grebe. She also lectured nationwide about ecology. Besides, Anne worked with a number of organizations dedicated to conservation.

【題目】Andy rode slowly on his way to school, day-dreaming about the fishing trip that his father had promised him. He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he was unaware of everything else around him.

He rode along until a strange sound drew him to the present. He came to a stop and looked curiously up to the heavens. What he saw shocked and terrified him. A huge swarm of bees filled the sky like a black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.

With no time to waste, Andy sped off in the opposite direction, riding furiously—but without knowing how to escape the swarm. With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously, he sped down the rough road. As the bees came closer, his panic increased. Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings(蜇). The last sting had landed him in hospital—and that was only one bee sting! He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days. Suddenly, his father’s words came to him. “When you are in a tight situation, don’t panic. Use your brain and think your way out of it.”

On a nearby hill, he could see smoke waving slowly skywards from the chimney of the Nelson family home. “Bees don’t like smoke,” he thought. “They couldn’t get into the house.” Andy raced towards the Nelson house, but the bees were gaining ground. Andy knew he could not reach the house in time. He estimated that the bees would catch up with him soon.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eyes, he spotted a small dam used by Mr. Nelson to irrigate his vegetable garden. Off his bike and into the cool water he lived, disappearing below the surface and away from the savage insects. After holding his breath for as long as he could, Andy came up for air and noticed the bees had gone. Dragging himself out of the dam, he struggled up the hilly slope and rang the doorbell. Mrs. Nelson took him inside and rang his mother.

“You’ll really need that fishing break to help you recover,” laughed his mother with relief. “Thank goodness you didn’t panic!” But Andy did not hear her. He was dreaming once again of the fish he would catch tomorrow.

1Why did Andy fail to notice the swarm of bees earlier?

A. He was riding to school.

B. He was listening to a strange sound.

C. He was going fishing with his father.

D. He was lost in the thought of the fishing trip.

2Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the swarm of bees in the passage?

A. They crowded like a black cloud.

B. They shocked and terrified Andy.

C. They tried to attack Andy in a mass.

D. They made Andy stay in hospital for two days.

3How did Andy avoid the bees in the end?

A. He rode off in the opposite direction.

B. He asked Mr. Nelson for help.

C. He hid himself under the water.

D. He rushed into the Nelson house.

4Which of the following can best describe Andy’s escape from the bees?

A. No pains, no gains.

B. In time of danger, one’s mind works fast.

C. Once bitten, twice shy.

D. Where there is a will, there is a way.
