It's a Saturday morning, and I am eager to fly away.My husband and I will meet up with our son on the other side of the country to learn and explore together.Sitting now at the airport gate,my husband wanders away to stretch his legs.Moments later,he returns and whispers in my ear.I rise and follow him around the comer toward a large window facing the landing area.
On the road, Marines stand straight and the plane door is open.A white hearse(靈車)is parked nearby.A man and a soldier stand on either side of a woman,supporting her and waiting for what is to come.Airport personnel stand in reverent stillness.A few people place their hands over their hearts,as I have done.We're joined in witness,sending respect to an honorable soldier whose name we'll never know.
The woman looks heartbroken. She cries, knowing she will never hear "Mom”from her son. She'll never feel his tender embrace or enjoy his sweet peck on her cheeks.Another man's face is twisted because of the grief.His son,the tiny boy he no doubt wrestled playfully,the teen he probably taught to drive,and the son he stood so proudly by,now lives only in his memory.
Those behind the glass stay silent, reflecting on this loss, as the family and soldiers leave.Some of us women, with sorrowful expressions, move slowly away, sharing a mother's profound grief .Soon,each of us will fly off in planes and return to an ordinary life made extraordinary by this soldier's courage,by this family's sacrifice and by this love shared by all that look out of the window.

【解析】這是一篇記敘文,作者講述了和丈夫準(zhǔn)備坐飛機(jī)去見兒子,在候機(jī)時(shí),目睹了一個(gè)悲痛欲絕的家庭在機(jī)場迎接陣亡兒子的靈柩的經(jīng)過。
(1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“my husband wanders away to stretch his legs”可知丈夫是想活動(dòng)一下,讓自己舒服一點(diǎn),故選B。
(2)考查歸納總結(jié)。根據(jù)第二段中的“We're joined in witness, sending respect to an honorable soldier whose name we'll never know”我們一起加入了人群,向不知名的尊敬的士兵表示敬意。以及最后一段中的“as the family and soldiers leave.Some of us women, with sorrowful expressions,move slowly away,sharing a mother's profound grief” 我們中的一些女性,帶著悲傷的表情,慢慢走開,分享母親的悲痛。結(jié)合這兩句可歸納出作者看到個(gè)場景時(shí)是悲傷和表示尊敬的,故選A。
(3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的"Soon,each of us will fly off in planes and return to an ordinary life made extraordinary by this soldier's courage,by this family's sacrifice and by this love shared by all that look out of the window."很快,我們每個(gè)人會(huì)坐飛機(jī)離開并返回一個(gè)普通的生活,而這種普通的生活由于這個(gè)士兵的勇氣,這個(gè)家庭的犧牲和所有那些有愛的、透過窗外觀看的人們而變得不平凡起來。以及本文中作者表現(xiàn)出對英雄士兵的尊敬。綜上所述可推斷出作者高度評價(jià)了(軍人及其家屬。作者是去見兒子的,所以A是錯(cuò)的;B項(xiàng)說那個(gè)可敬的士兵小時(shí)候喜歡摔跤,文中沒有涉及;D項(xiàng)說機(jī)場的人們由于事件而悲痛不已是事實(shí)但不是推斷出的。故選C項(xiàng)。
(4)考查主旨大意?v觀全文可,作者及其丈夫在去與兒子見面的機(jī)場上見證了一個(gè)家庭在機(jī)場接去世的兒子——個(gè)陣亡的士兵的靈柩的歸來。即一個(gè)陣亡的士兵和他的家人團(tuán)聚。 A項(xiàng)我在機(jī)場看到傷心的父母。B項(xiàng)士兵的勇氣在機(jī)場使我們感動(dòng)。C項(xiàng)向一個(gè)可敬的士兵表示敬意。ABC都只是其中的一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)。只有D是主旨大意。

【題目】任務(wù)型閱讀
We've all heard about the power of our attitude, and it's our attitude that determines how much we succeed in life.
All the things that you have been through, all the people you have met and interacted with can have an impact on your attitude. If you think that all these factors have molded you into a person with a poor attitude towards life, there is no need to worry.
1).Identify and understand what you want to change.
The first step towards change is clearly understanding what needs to be changed.When it comes to changing your attitude, you need to do an honest and in-depth self-evaluation so you could point out exactly which of your traits need to be improved or totally changed.
2).
Find someone who has the kind of attitude that you want to have, and let his or her life give you inspiration and encouragement to move beyond your temporary failures in your journey towards becoming a better person.
3). Choose the right company.
As they say, “Bad company corrupts good character.” You don't expect yourself to be able to change if you go on surrounding yourself with people who possess all the negative traits that you want to change. Consider befriending new people, especially those who are optimistic and have a healthy attitude towards life.
4). Believe that you are able to change.
If you don't believe in yourself or believe that you or your life can change, it just won't happen—you will either never start, or give up quickly that you won't have even given yourself the opportunity to succeed.
A. Your effort to change will be easier with these people as friends.
B. Setting clear goals is the key to success in any endeavor.
C. The greatest obstacle is our inability to trust in what we can do.
D. Look for a role model.
E. Think about how your attitude change will affect your life.
F. There is always an opportunity for change.
G. Fix your mind on the things that would come as a result of your attitude change.

Profi Cheese Slicer
Uses a thin wire to slice up to medium-hard cheeses in four inch sections.
I may own every cheese slicer ever made.I prefer a wire type cheese cutter so I can cut slices that work well on a piece of bread and sandwich.
This cheese slicer is great for both tasks.It even has adjustable tension on the two cutting wires.A point of information: I did break a wire cutting a very hard piece of cheese with black pepper.Good news,the wire is replaceable,and I was able to purchase new wires to fix it.Maybe best to use on softer cheeses.Lessons learned.But, highly recommended for every other use except for those extremely hard cheeses.

【題目】閱讀理解
Imagine one day, the water taps in your house stop running. You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn't enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family's shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?
Probably not. But that's what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a report, the capital, Sanaa, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.
Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply. Hannan, 18-year-old from Lahej, told the Times: “In a good week, we'll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”
Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water truck. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water-at very high prices.
“A lot of people can't afford it,” she said. The average person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty line of 1,000 cubic meters.
The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.
(1)The purpose of the text is to _______.
A.tell us what life is like in Yemen
B.draw our attention to water shortage
C.remind us how important water is
D.show us ways of solving problems
(2)The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refers to .
A.buying water from shops
B.drinking dirty water
C.suffering from water shortage
D.washing clothes with used water
(3)Hannan described .
A.what her life is like
B.how beautiful Lahej is
C.how people use water fully
D.how heavy the traffic in Lahej is
(4)We can infer from the text that .
A.Sanaa will run out of water in 10 years
B.Hannan is a teenager from a rich family
C.the capital of Yemen is developing fast
D.private companies make a lot of money
