【題目】Having taken a room at the hotel at which he had been instructed to stay, Smallwood went out; it was a lovely day, early in August, and the sun shone in an unclouded sky. He had not been to Lucerne since he was a boy, but remembered a covered bridge, though not clearly, a great stone lion and a church in which he had sat, bored yet impressed while they played an organ (風(fēng)琴); and now wandering along a shady quay (碼頭) he tried not so much to find his way about a half-forgotten scene as to reform in his mind some recollection of the shy and eager boy, so impatient for life, who so long ago had wandered there. But it seemed to him that the most lively of his memories was not of himself, but of the crowd; he seemed to remember the sun and the heat and the people; the train was crowded and so was the hotel, the lake steamers were packed and on the quays and in the streets you found your way among the holiday-makers. They were fat and old and ugly and strange.
Now, in wartime, Lucerne was as deserted as it must have been before the world discovered that Switzerland was the play-ground of Europe. Most of the hotels were closed, the streets were empty, the boats for hire rocked (搖晃) lazily at the water’s edge and there was none to take them, and in the avenue by the lake the only persons to be seen were serious Swiss taking their dogs for their daily walk. Smallwood felt happy and, sitting down on a bench that faced the water, surrendered (聽任) himself to the feelings. The blue water, snowy mountains, and their beauty hit you in the face. So long, at all event, as the fine weather lasted he was prepared to enjoy himself. He didn’t see why he should not at least try to combine pleasure to himself with advantage to his country.
【1】We can infer that Smallwood went to Lucerne _________.
A. to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the area
B. to do something as told
C. to visit his friend there
D. to get in touch with the shy and eager boy
【2】He felt that the city _________.
A. was more crowded than it used to be
B. had changed out of all recognition
C. had been ruined by becoming an attraction
D. was quieter than he remembered it
【3】He was prepared to enjoy himself as long as _________.
A. he was serving his country
B. he was making a profit
C. the pleasant weather continued like this
D. he could stay in Lucerne
【4】After reading the passage, we can draw a conclusion that _________.
A. Smallwood’s former visit to Lucerne was made in peacetime
B. Smallwood was pleased by the sound this time
C. Smallwood was very nervous when he got to Lucerne
D. A war would soon break out in Lucerne
【答案】
【1】B
【2】D
【3】C
【4】A
【解析】
試題分析: 本文主要講Smallwood到戰(zhàn)爭時期的Lucerne出差,發(fā)現(xiàn)現(xiàn)在的Lucerne很凄清,人煙稀少,門戶緊鎖,景象比他幼時記憶中要寂靜的多。雖然記憶中的繁榮喧鬧不再,但風(fēng)景依舊,Smallwood依舊感到滿心歡喜。
【1】B 推理判斷題 根據(jù)文章第一段Having taken a room at the hotel at which he had been instructed to stay, Smallwood went out可知,Smallwood到了指定的旅館找好房間后,他走了出來。根據(jù)“指定的旅館”可以推測他到Lucerne是接到指示的。故選B.
【2】D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段描寫Smallwood幼時對Lucerne的種種印象可以知道,當(dāng)時Lucerne人群擁擠,熱鬧喧嘩。而第二段描寫了戰(zhàn)爭時期Lucerne的景象,門戶緊鎖,衰敗凄涼。再由第二段Now, in wartime, Lucerne was as deserted as it must have been before the world discovered that Switzerland was the play-ground of Europe可知現(xiàn)在的Lucerne很凄清,比Smallwood記憶中要安靜得多。故選D.
【3】C 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第二段 So long, at all event, as the fine weather lasted he was prepared to enjoy himself可知只要天氣一直這么好,Smallwood就打算放松自己享受Lucerne的美景。故選C.
【4】A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段Now, in wartime, Lucerne was as deserted as it must have been before the world discovered that Switzerland was the play-ground of Europe可知戰(zhàn)爭時期的Lucerne人煙稀少,街道凄清。而第一段講到Smallwood小時候Lucerne的繁榮景象,所以可推測那是在和平時期。故選A.

【題目】【原創(chuàng)】On Sunday, Samsung used the 2015 installment of Mobile World Congress to announce the latest models of its Galaxy line of smartphones: the S6 and S6 Edge, aiming to retake its throne.
Both devices take the Galaxy line in a completely new direction. The most apparent change is the noticeable lack of plastic formerly synonymous with Samsung smartphones. With the S6 lineup, Samsung chose to go with a combination of metal and a glass housing.
The S6 Edge features a curved display on both edges of the screen. A fingerprint sensor sits below the home button. The user only needs to place a finger on the button and wait for the scan to complete. The change makes the experience nearly identical to that of Apple’s Touch ID.
Sure to disappoint Samsung loyalists, the South Korean company rejected two features long used to mock(嘲弄)Apple’s AAPL 0.49% iPhone: expandable storage and a replaceable battery. Looking beyond the changes in appearance are a faster processor, higher-quality camera, curved display, and wireless charging capabilities.
The new feature called Samsung Pay is very appealing and will bring users more convenience.
And it has a leg up on Apple Pay, which is limited to working only at retail locations and outlets with the necessary equipment to process NFC payments. With Samsung Pay, users won’t be caught in the middle of a spat between competing payment platforms. So go right ahead.
Another thing: Each year when Samsung would announce the latest Galaxy device, it would announce some software-based features that served little purpose. With this year’s release, Samsung cut the fat. Any unnecessary menus were left out.
For years, Samsung’s flagship phones have been long on features, but short on follow-through. The new Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge appear to lay the groundwork for a lineup of devices that are quite the opposite.
【1】 What is the main idea of this passage?
A. The competition between Samsung and Apple.
B. The introduction of the latest models of Samsung.
C. The development of Samsung company.
D. The similarity between Apple and Samsung.
【2】Which is NOT the new feature of the S6 and S6 Edge?
A. An emergency battery B. A faster processor.
C. Samsung Pay. D. Higher-quality camera.
【3】According to the passage, we can know Apple ______.
A. has a replaceable battery
B. has Touch ID
C. uses plastics as material
D. has no payment function
【4】In which aspect may Samsung’s latest models disappoint its users?
A. It is more expensive than expected.
B. Mobile payment function is inconvenient.
C. It has more useless software.
D. Its storage can’t be expanded any longer.
【5】What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. Samsung is longer in shape.
B. Samsung is good at creating new models.
C. Samsung has an advantage of function.
D. Samsung is always following trends.

【題目】What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.
Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.
Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.
【1】【改編】what can we infer from the first paragraph ? ________.
A. we should reflect on how to find our career
B. the better you are at school subjects, the more helpful they are in your career.
C. mastering each subject well is an ability in many jobs.
D. learning better at school shows strength in your job
【2】【改編】From the passage we can conclude that if a student’s school performance is not good, he will _____.
A. fail in his future work
B. be hopeful to find a appropriate job
C. regret not having worked harder at school
D. have a chance of a new beginning in his future work
【3】All the subjects may have direct value for job hunting except _________.
A. mathematics B. English
C. history D. technical drawing
【4】The passage mainly discusses ___________.
A. The relationship between school performance and career
B. how to get a job
C. How to show strengths in your work
D. working experience and knowledge at school
