Once there lived a man who was such lazy that no job was fit him. In order to make a living he went to the neighbor of his for help one day. The neighbor advised to him to be a grave caretaker as it is the easiest job one could find. The lazy man was delighting and soon became a grave caretaker. And to everybody’s surprise, he gave up his job three days before he got it. “It’s unfair.” He said to the neighbor angry. “In the grave all the others are lying still when I am the only one who has to stand.”

【答案】

【1】suchso

【2】fit后面加for

【3】to后面的thea

【4】去掉advised后面的to

【5】iswas

【6】delightingdelighted

【7】AndBut

【8】beforeafter

【9】angryangrily

【10】whenwhile

【解析】

【1】suchso 考查固定句型。后面是形容詞lazy,說明應(yīng)該使用so來修飾形容詞或者副詞,such后面只能接名詞。

【2】fit后面加for 考查固定短語。be fit for適合于

【3】to后面的thea 考查冠詞。a neighbor表示泛指他的一個鄰居。

【4】去掉advised后面的to 考查動詞。advise sb. to do sth.建議某人做某事,advise是及物動詞,后面直接加賓語。

【5】iswas 考查動詞的時(shí)態(tài)。本文描述的是過去發(fā)生的事情,故要用一般過去時(shí)。

【6】delightingdelighted 考查形容詞。本句話的主語是人,所以使用delighted修飾,be delighted to do sth做某事很高興。

【7】AndBut 考查連詞。上下文存在著轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,但是讓大家驚訝的是三天后他放棄了這份工作。

【8】beforeafter 考查連詞。在得到這份工作三天以后,他就放棄了。表示“……之后,故把before改為after。

【9】angryangrily 考查副詞。修飾動詞用副詞,故把angry改為angrily

【10】whenwhile 考查連詞。句意:其他人都躺在那里,而只有我一個人不得不站著。應(yīng)該用while表示轉(zhuǎn)折,而when表示當(dāng)……時(shí)候。

【題目】My first impression of Miss Vicki was a highly authoritative(權(quán)威的) person towering over me. She spoke in a loud voice and the earth shook whenever she marched. That was in the first year of high school. She was a knowledgeable literature teacher then. However, during my first year in school, she struck terror into my heart. And everyone elses of course. Just the mention of her name made the most annoying classes silent.

However, the two years of junior high passed by rather quickly. Soon I went to senior high class. I had worked hard and got the subject combination that I wished for. Together with a group of old friends, I soon settled down in class comfortably.

To everyones surprise, she was fortunate enough to be my teacher that year. I was shocked when I heard the news. This time round, however, I decided not to hide in terror whenever she was near. I decided to face the fact. Instead of trying too hard to lick her boots , I tried my best to be my natural myself in front of her.

Still, I could not shake off the ice-cold impression that she put in my heart. True, her jokes sometimes sent me into fits of laughter, yet at other times these jokes simply fell flat the moment she told them . My lovely class, however, was always ready to laugh at the right time of her amusing stories. After all, we would not want to run the risk of making her angry.

Unluckily, life was not to remain boring. One day we received news that Miss Vicki was to leave Singapore for the Philippines where she would take part in a voluntary teaching program for the poor. We did not know what to say actually. All of us cried at the airport.

【1】 During the first year in school, the author thought Miss Vicki was __________.

A. proud but patient

D. humorous but single-minded

2 What does the underlined phrase lick her boots in paragraph 3 mean?

A. Win her favor B. Upset her

C. Shock her D. Follow her closely

3What can we learn from paragraph 4?

A. Miss Vicki was a good joke teller.

B. Miss Vickis jokes were always boring.

C. Students liked Miss Vickis class very much.

D. Students pretended to laugh to please Vicki.

【題目】Filmmaker Jennifer Nelson had to pay $1,500 to have “Happy Birthday to You” sung in the movie she’s making. The money went to Warner Music Group, a company that claims to own the copyright on the song. A copyright is the legal right to use or sell a creative product such as a song, a TV show, a book, or a work of art. Warner has claimed the copyright for “Happy Birthday to You” since 1988.

“I never thought the song was owned by anyone,” Nelson said in an e-mail to The New York Times. “I thought it belonged to everyone.”

Nelson’s movie is a documentary(紀(jì)錄片)— a film that uses pictures and/or interviews with people to create a factual report of real-life events — and is actually about the history of the “Happy Birthday” song itself.

Two sisters named Mildred and Patty Hill wrote a song called “Good Morning to All” in 1893. Over a short period of time, people began to sing the words “happy birthday to you” in place of the original lyrics to the tune of the Hill sisters’ song.

A number of history experts say that there is no record of who actually wrote the “Happy Birthday to You” lyrics(歌詞). Historians also say there is no way to know when the general public began singing the “Happy Birthday” song, but they believe it was being sung by the public long before it was printed and owned by a company.

Nelson’s lawyers say this piece of music’s history proves that “Happy Birthday to You” belongs to everyone in the general public. That would mean Warner Music Group has no right to charge anyone a fee to sing the song in any setting.

Experts estimate that Warner/ Chappell, the publishing division of the Warner Music Group, has made about $2 million a year from licensing fees for “Happy Birthday to You.”

Nelson’s lawyers are asking a court in New York City to order Warner/Chappell to return fees they have collected over the past four years for use of the “Happy Birthday” song.

【1Jennifer Nelson had to pay Warner Music Group to ____________.

A. own the copyright on a song

B. have it write a song for her movie

C. have it play a song in her movie

D. have a song sung in her movie

【2】The history experts’ statement can prove that the “Happy Birthday” song ____________.

A. does not belong to Warner Music Group

B. has more than 200 years’ history

C. was initially owned by another company

D. has always been very popular

【3】According to Nelson’s lawyers, to sing the “Happy Birthday” song, people ____________.

A. should pay the Hill sisters

B. should pay Warner Music Group

C. need not pay for any purpose

D. need not pay except for commercial use

【4】If the court supports Nelson’s lawyers’ claim, ____________.

A. she can obtain the copyright on the song

B. Warner will return about $8 million

C. Warner will have to pay her for her damages

D. she only needs to pay a little money to use the song

Beat Summer Learning Loss

Summer learning loss is a loss of knowledge and skills most commonly due to long breaks during the summertime. Many teachers have certainly had the experience of taking the first month of school not only to introduce his or her rules and procedures to the class but also to get the kids back “up to speed” with thinking, remembering what they’ve learned and in many cases, reviewing previous content. 【1】

(1)Read!

Research supports the relationship between independent reading and student achievement, so simply having children read daily will make a positive difference. 2 public libraries, local bookstores, online stores, etc.

(2)Write!

Have children write letters to out-of-town friends and family, or write postcards while on vacation. 3 For children who are good at drawing or painting, parents may choose to create a family scrapbook(剪貼簿) with words printed below pictures. Not only will parents keep this summer’s memories, but children will also continue to practice his or her writing skills!

(3)Do the Math!

4 have a yard sale, and put children in charge of the cash box; help younger ones organize an orange juice stand (to practice salesmanship and making change). Or simply buy a set of inexpensive flash cards to practice basic facts while waiting in line or on a long car ride. There are even a host of free online games that will keep children’s math skills sharp.

(4) “Homeschool” Children.

Keeping children’s skills fresh doesn’t have to cost a fortune: check out some workbooks and online resources, and children can work through several exercises each day. Even as little as twenty minutes a day can have amazing results. 5 For instance, children can learn something during a car ride, right before bedtime, etc.

Of course, parents don’t need to do all the steps here. Just following through with one or two of these ways will be of great help.

A. Think of ways children can use math skills in daily activities:

B. A summer journal is another way to set down summer activities.

C. What’s more, it’s easy to work in a small block of time here and there.

D. Check out the following sources to find books that your child will want to dive into.

E. So it’s not a good choice for parents to force children to spend their summertime learning knowledge.

F. Fortunately, there are some steps parents can try to help children both enjoy the summer and keep their skills fresh.

【題目】If you had a strange sound in your ear, what would you do? One man in Wales who thought he had a fly in his ear called 999, the emergency services number in Britain. And so did a woman who was worried about her green potatoes. Could she make chips with them? Were they poisonous? She didn’t hesitate about calling the local ambulance service to ask. According to a recent report, more than 31,000 non-urgent calls were made to the Welsh Ambulance Service in the last year.

Inappropriate calls are a headache for health professionals everywhere. In the US, prank calls to 911 happen on a daily basis. Many callers use apps which hide their identity. But those who try to be funny shouldn’t be surprised if the police have the last laugh. One man from Colorado was arrested for making more than 1,200 prank calls, according to a report on the US television station KOAA—TV.

People who take these calls are trained to stay calm and keep a straight face, no matter how strange the call sounds. “There’s no way for us to know whether the call is real, accidental or a prank call,” said a public safety worker interviewed by the American TV channel.

The Head of Clinical Services at the Welsh Ambulance Service, Richard Lee, has a warning for prank callers. He says:“ When people misuse the service it means our precious time is being taken away from someone who really does need our help.” Indeed, these hotlines are supposed to help the seriously ill or those with a life-threatening injury. You never know, one day, the person who needs assistance could be you or someone in your family.

【1】How does the author introduce the topic of the text?

A. By giving examples. B. By telling a story.

C. By listing figures. D. By making a comparison.

【2】According to the text, prank calls are usually________.

A. meant to be helpful B. dealt with in time

C. thought highly of D. made to play tricks

【3What does the underlined phrase “have the last laugh” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. win at last. B. never find them.

C. laugh at them. D. know nothing.

【4】What does the author intend to suggest in the text?

A. Prank calls are usually easy to identify.

B. Operators feel annoyed by strange callers.

C. Prank calls may cause serious results.

D. Prank callers should be punished by law.
