小題1:根據(jù)下文，不難發(fā)現(xiàn)他們總共救出7名兒童，應(yīng)選表“一些、幾個(gè)”意思的詞組。A couple of“幾個(gè)”；a dozen of“一打”；a lot of“許多”；a number of“許多”，故答案C。
小題1:“獲得”……獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)，應(yīng)用win,本句中又是主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，故答案B。
小題1:表“上課”，我們可以使用have a lesson/class或attend a …lesson/class, attend 有“參加、出席”之意，其他幾個(gè)單詞均無(wú)此意；故答案D。
小題1:結(jié)合前句，構(gòu)成be doing…when結(jié)構(gòu)，故正確答案A。
小題1:不定代詞和數(shù)詞連用時(shí)，應(yīng)注意它們的位置關(guān)系：another+數(shù)詞，數(shù)詞+other; others表“其他的人（物），the other“兩者中的另一個(gè)”，故答案B。
小題1:表示“看樣子、看起來(lái)”時(shí)，我們往往用it seems as if/從句 …或it looks as if..表示，用it appear+從句表“顯得，似乎”，turn“改變、旋轉(zhuǎn)”，本句中用于描述地震前的情形，有“看樣子，看起來(lái)”之意，故答案D。
小題1:本句是在回憶地震時(shí)的情況，所以應(yīng)用“記得、記起”， A項(xiàng)“提醒”； B項(xiàng)“留下”；D項(xiàng)“評(píng)論、談?wù)摗�，故答案C。
小題1:此處敘述地震時(shí)聲音愈來(lái)愈大，應(yīng)使用形容詞的比較級(jí)，aloud為副詞“出聲地，高聲地，大聲地”；loud“響亮的，大聲的”，weak“虛弱的”，clear“清楚的，明白的”，故答案D。
小題1:此句應(yīng)表示“意識(shí)到”地震將要發(fā)生，并非“想到、發(fā)現(xiàn)、認(rèn)出”等意思，所以答案A。
小題1:根據(jù)生活常識(shí)，發(fā)生地震時(shí)，老師應(yīng)命令“每個(gè)人”逃生，所以答案B。
小題1:根據(jù)句意“一跑出去，他們便朝孩子們正在小睡的幼兒園跑去”，可知答案A。
小題1:本句考查時(shí)態(tài)，應(yīng)使用過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)，同時(shí)注意have a nap“在小睡”，所以答案A。
小題1:句意：“他們到達(dá)時(shí)，只有三位孩子從幼兒園成功跑出來(lái)”，manage to do“設(shè)法（成功）做某事” ；try to do“盡力做某事”，但結(jié)果未必成功；答案C。
小題1:此處應(yīng)使用表“到達(dá)”的及物動(dòng)詞，只有B項(xiàng)符合，其他三項(xiàng)均為不及物動(dòng)詞，答案B。
小題1:結(jié)合上下文，此句表“在地震時(shí)（孩子們）由于太害怕而不能移動(dòng)”，故答案C。
小題1:本句考查it takes sb some time to do…這一句型，故答案D。
小題1:地震中，應(yīng)先把孩子轉(zhuǎn)移到安全地帶。所以答案A。
小題1:根據(jù)文意，當(dāng)教室墻壁倒塌時(shí)，由于不能確信孩子們是否全部救出，他們只好核實(shí)姓名。A項(xiàng)“沒問題”；B項(xiàng)“難怪”， C項(xiàng)“不能確信”； D選項(xiàng)“遠(yuǎn)非、完全不”故答案C。
小題1:表示“ 只好”之意，只有just，故答案B。
小題1:be likely to“可能的”，故答案C。

One cold January evening in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, America, I went with my father on an oil burner service call. My father was in his forties at that time and I was about twelve years old. He was always working hard trying to support us seven kids. I enjoyed hanging out with him whenever I could — he taught me so much.
We arrived at the call and after walking over snow and ice, we knocked on the customer’s door. A senior citizen opened the door and let us into her very cold home. She was wearing an old, worn-out brown coat that went down to her knees. On her head, covering her gray hair, was an old and worn hat. The home wasn’t furnished very well and was quite dark, except for a single light bulb over the dining room table. Below the light was an older man counting change from several old coffee cans. He looked up at us as we passed by to get to the kitchen where my dad would fix the oil burner. He didn’t say anything. He just looked up at us. He couldn’t speak English, nor could his wife. She only pointed to the kitchen and smiled at us.
After a short while, my father had the heater up and running, and it began to heat their cold home. The lady asked my dad in poor English how much she owed him for fixing the heater. My dad looked around the house and said that he had to go out to the truck and write the bill.
Once in the truck he marked the bill “no answer at home, no charge”, so they wouldn’t be charged for his work. He looked over at me and said, “He was counting his change to pay me. They need their money more than I do.”
As usual, my father taught me something important that time, which was to be kind to the poor.

My dad was never the kind to offer many words of love or encouragement. But we knew he loved us... he just had his own way of showing it.
When I was a teen, we were seasonal campers at a family campground almost an hour outside the city where we lived. Each family had their own campsite with water and electric, and you basically parked your camper there from May through October. Most "Seasonals" visited them every weekend during those months, with the occasional weeklong stay. There were plenty of other kids who camped seasonally each weekend, and they came to be some of my closest friends. Of course, many of them were boys.
We kids paired up with our little boyfriends or girlfriends, and we'd hold hands as we'd walk around the campground. We'd play ping-pong, have some snacks, and play songs. Most weekends were pretty similar, but the couples would change. You'd see so-and-so with a different so-and-so than they were with the weekend before. You know how it is when you're a teen — a three-week relationship is a really long time.
So, needless to say, my teen years were spent with quite a few different boys. But every single one of them had something in common... they'd all received The Evil Eye.
The Evil Eye was a magical sort of thing. One simple look from my dad, and the boy immediately knew not to mess with me. It was as if he could send his warnings through invisible laser（激光）beams that shot directly from his eyes to the boys' brains.
"You will not put your hands on my daughter... You will not kiss my daughter... You will not even whisper sweet nothings into my daughter's ear."
I remember one night in particular, walking with a boy around the campground after dark. We came from one direction, and my dad from the other. The boy and my dad locked eyes for a brief second, then the boy dropped my hand like a hot potato and turned away, giving me a quick, "See ya later."
Yes, the Evil Eye. Best way ever to keep wandering teen boy hands away from your daughters.  
小題1:The Evil Eye in the passage implies that__________.
A．Dad gets angry easily
B．Dad’s eyes are like evil’s
C．Dad’s eyes are ugly-looking
D．Dad’s eyes are protective to his daughter
小題2:The underlined words “mess with” in paragraph 5 most probably means_________.
A．cause troubleB．make untidy
C．get married toD．talk to
小題3:
A．As teenagers, we went camping every weekend.
B．We made lots of friends during the seasonal camping.
C．We had regular boyfriends or girlfriends and enjoyed ourselves.
D．The boy dropped my hand and turned away because he loved The Evil Eye.
小題4:It can be inferred from the passage that the author ___________.
A．is a teenage girl who loves her father
B．is a teenage boy who hates his father
C．is now an adult who has come to understand her father’s love
D．used to be a naughty boy who changed girlfriends now and then

THE BRONTE FAMILY
Yorkshire, England was the setting for two great novels (小說(shuō)) of the 19th century. These were Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre and Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights. The youngest sister, Anne, was also a gifted novelist, and her books have the same extraordinary quality as her sisters’.
Their father was Patrick Bronte, born in Ireland. He moved with his wife, Maria Bronte, and their six small children to Haworth in Yorkshire in 1820. Soon after, Mrs. Bronte and the two eldest children died, leaving the father to care of the remaining three girls and a boy.
Charlotte was born in 1816. Emily was born in 1818 and Anne in 1820. Their brother Branwell was born in 1817. Left to themselves, the children wrote and told stories and walked over the hills. They grew up largely self-educated. Branwell showed a great interest in drawing. The girls were determined to earn money for his art education. They took positions as teachers or taught children in their homes.
As children they had all written many stories. Charlotte, as a young girl, alone wrote 22 books, each with 60 to 100 pages of small handwriting. Therefore, they turned to writing for income. By 1847, Charlotte had written The Professor; Emily, Wuthering Heights; and Anne, Agnes Grey. After much difficulty Anne and Emily found a publisher(出版商), but there was no interest shown in Charlotte’s book. (It was not published until 1859.) However, one publisher expressed an interest in seeing more of her works. Jane Eyre was already started, and she hurriedly finished it. It was accepted at once; thus each of the sisters had a book published in 1847.
Jane Eyre was immediately successful; the other two, however, did not do so well. People did not like Wuthering Heights. They said it was too wild, too animal-like. But gradually it came to be considered one of the finest novels in the English language. Emily lived only a short while after the publication of the book, and Anne died in 1849.
Charlotte published Shirley in 1849, and Villette in 1853. In 1854 she married Arthur Bell Nicholls. But only a year later, she died of tuberculosis(肺結(jié)核) as her sisters had.
