【題目】閱讀下面短文,從每題所給的四項(xiàng)個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A,B,C和D)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
Last August, I traveled with a group of volunteers to Tres de mayo, a small community near Tela, Honduras to help renovate(整修) a community centre. During my stay there, I learned many things and I also had plenty of opportunity to interact(互動) and work with local children, and I often could not help but think about the hardships they faced day to day, all factors considered to place children at-risk for problems later in life.
One young boy in particular, Javier, 16, stood out for me. Javier's father had left a year earlier for the U.S, and the family had not heard from him since. This put his mother in a difficult position, stay in Tres de Mayo with no job and no source of income. In the end she decided to move to another province to find work. Javier with his little brother had to stay to live with their grandfather in a small house. Many of the children we met in Tres de Mayo were in similar situations.
As our last day approached, I remember the look in Javier's eyes, as they welled up(涌出)with tears when we told him we were leaving. One of the volunteers held him close, but it did little to console him. He had already experienced so much loss, his father abandoning him, his mother leaving to find work, and it was hard to realize that our departure(離開)was adding to the list.
As I looked beyond Javier, I could see the many men and women whom Javier looked up to, depended on, and gathered strength from. I did know that without parents to raise him, he was not left alone. Instead, the adults in the community took responsibility for the care of their collective young.
(1)Which of the following statement is TRUE?
A.Javier established good relationship with the author and his team.
B.Javier faced a number of challenges that put him at some risks.
C.Javier shared the same sufferings with other kids in Tres de Mayo.
D.Javier had to learn to be independent even since he was a little boy.
(2)We can replace the underlined word “console ” in the third paragraph with ___________.
A.affect
B.inspire
C.comfort
D.protect
(3)According to the author, what plays an important part in the growth of Javier?
A.The united effort from the whole global village.
B.The good quality from the foreign volunteers.
C.The great care from the adults in his community.
D.The positive support from some of his family.

【答案】
(1)B
(2)C
(3)C
【解析】本文主要講了社區(qū)的一個(gè)男孩Javier,他遭受了很多不幸的經(jīng)歷,父親拋棄了他們,母親要去工作,社區(qū)使他感覺不那么孤獨(dú),但是我們的離開使他很難過,社區(qū)的關(guān)懷對他的成長起到了很重要的作業(yè)。
(1)B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第一段最后的and I often could not help but think about the hardships they faced day to day, all factors considered to place children at-risk for problems later in life.及第二段的Many of the children we met in Tres de Mayo were in similar situations.可知,Javier面臨著很大的挑戰(zhàn),這使他處于危險(xiǎn)中。所以選B。
(2)C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第三段的One of the volunteers held him close, but it did little to console him. He had already experienced so much loss,可知,對他的擁抱并沒有起到安慰作業(yè),所以console是安慰的意思,所以選C。
(3)C 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中最后一段的Instead, the adults in the community took responsibility for the care of選C。their collective young.可知,社區(qū)在他的成長中起到了重要的作用,所以選C。

Trust has been considered as the basis of any relationship, including friendship. No relationship can last long with a lack of trust. Not many of your friends will have real faith in you as you would like to believe. Sometimes, it takes years, even a complete lifetime, to trust someone. However, how do we know if our friends have faith in us?
With whom will you share things that you don’t want everyone to know? It would be with a close friend, whom you trust as much as you trust yourself. While a few of your friends may be fiercely protective of their privacy and may not tell their secrets to anyone, those who do, surely find you trustworthy and reliable.
Whom do you look up to for advice when you need it the most? It has to be either your parents or your friends. This is a shining example of trust. You only seek advice from people you hold in high regard and find dependable. The friends who trust you will never forget to include you in the important decisions of their life.
Arguments and heated discussions are a part of every relationship, and this is also true for friendship. While some people find it difficult to forgive and forget, your friends will never have problems moving on. It is because they trust you and believe that you will never cause any pain to them on purpose.
There are times in life when you find yourself a lonely soldier. Your friends will never let you down and will strongly stand for you when you need encouragement. You can determine that they trust you and believe in your beliefs, if they side with you when you need them the most.
A. People can be extraordinarily jealous sometimes.
B. You know they will never pass on a wrong suggestion.
C. In fact, winning trust is, by far, the most challenging aspect of relationships.
D. Two people cannot have identical reactions to a situation and different opinions do exist.
E. No matter how close you are to your friends, you cannot take that comfort level for granted.
F. If your friends share their secrets, there’s a good possibility that they have much faith in you.
G. However, people who are fortunate to have been blessed with true friends are never alone in any battle.

【題目】閱讀下面短文,從每題所給的四項(xiàng)個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A,B,C和D)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
C
It has been more than 50 years since Harvard Business School started admitting women, yet the institution(機(jī)構(gòu)) is still trying hard to find out how to best attract and support them. Its latest effort: a program targeting women's colleges—place that are not traditional feeding grounds for the male-majority business school.
The program is called Peek. It offers juniors, seniors and recent graduates from women's colleges the opportunity to read and discuss four HBS case studies in class specially taught by top HBS members. About 50 to 70 promising students will pay $500 for their stay there.
Women make up 41 percent of Harvard Business School class of 2016--the most the school has had. In 1985, women made up only one-quarter of the graduating class. Harvard is not alone when it comes to struggling with a gender gap (性別差別). At Wharton, the class of 2016 is 40 percent women; at Standford Business School, it's 42 percent. No top business school had gotten to 50 percent yet.Despite the Peek program's good intention, the $500 fee bothered someone, said John A. Byrne, the editor of business school new site. ”The fact that HBS would charge women for the chance of coming to campus rubbed a lot of people the wrong way,” said Byrne. HBS said the $500 fee was a “fair price” for room and daily meals at the business school for a weekend, and didn't actually cover the full costs of the program.
For years, women students at Harvard Business School failed to keep pace with men. In 2010, Harvard business School got a new manager, Nitin Nohrin, who promised a turnaround. Nohrin designed a program to encourage women students and professors. He promised to change the school's case studies so that at least 20 percent of the people in the business texts would be women.
(1)What can we learn about the program Peek?
A.It is free for new students.
B.It offers all kinds of business classes.
C.It is helped by the best teachers.
D.It is intended for high school students.
(2)What is the main idea of the Paragraph 3?
A.women are not good at business management.
B.Women are less interested in business school.
C.Women students are less talented than men students.
D.Women students are becoming fewer and fewer in college.
(3)In the eyes of Byrne, Harvard's program___________.
A.will be a total failure
B.will waste lots of money
C.doesn't have many good intention
D.will shut some students out
(4)What is the text mainly about?
A.HBS's new plan to attract more women students.
B.HBS's new manager Nitin Nohria.
C.HBS's effort to attract talented students.
D.HBS, the best business school ever world-wide.

Things to Keep in Mind before Moving to New York City
So, reading up on New York's history, facts, statistics, facilities, etc, is always a good idea. Learn about the culture, how to deal with people, taxi drivers, manners, or lack of manners that is exhibited there, and so on. It is always best to know what exactly you are getting into rather than landing there and getting a complete shock.
Before you buy your clothes or shoes, you always try them out first, right? In the same way, before you move to New York, you need to visit it for a couple of days, just do that you can see what the city is like.
The best and worst thing about New York is that this city is controlled by money. Then, you need to set aside (留出) an amount for emergencies only. If you are moving to New York with a job, or are planning to get a job once you are in the city, then you need to make sure that your salary covers up all your expenses and the amount that you would set aside for emergencies.
Finding a neighbourhood in New York is the key to actually enjoying your stay there. If you are moving to the city due to work, then look for living accommodations close to your workplace. Do you see yourself living in a place that is quiet, like the Upper West Side or East Side, or do you want noisy setups, like the East Village, Lower East Side, or West Village?
Give the city a chance, make some good memories, and enjoy your stay there. Be safe wherever you go, and don't worry too much.

A. The easiest way to survive in New York is to have a friend who knows this city really well.
B. Once you are in New York, you would never want to leave it.
C. Before you move to any city, it is always best to know a little about the city.
D. To start with, you will need to make a budget.
E. You need to decide what kind of neighborhood you want.
F. Take a tour of the city and try to imagine yourself living there.
G. The experience of moving to New York depends on how the city treats you and what you make of the city.
