2.When milk arrived on the doorstep
     When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s,we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.As a 5-year-old boy,I couldn't take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
    Of course,he delivered more than milk.There was cheese,eggs and so on.If we needed to change our order,my mother would pen a note-"Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery"-and place it in the box along with the empty bottles.And then,the buttermilk would magically appear.
     All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen.Mr.Basille even had a key to out house,for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors,so that the milk wouldn't freeze.And I remember Mr.Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table,having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
     There is sadly no home milk delivery today.Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk,thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete.Besides,milk is for sale everywhere,and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
      Recently,an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories.I took it home and planted it on the back porch (門廊).Every so often my son's friends will ask what it is.So I start telling stories of my boyhood,and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.

56.Mr Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changerC.
A.to show his magical power   B.to pay for the delivery
C.to satisfy his curiosity    D.to please his mother.
57.What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy's house?D
A.He wanted to have tea there
B.He was a respectable person
C.He was treated as a family member
D.He was fully trusted by the family
58.Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?B
A.Nobody wants to be a milkman now
B.It has been driven out of the market
C.Its service is getting poor
D.It is forbidden by law
59.Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A
A.He missed the good old days
B.He wanted to tell interesting stories
C.He missed it for his milk bottles
D.He planted flowers in it.

分析 全文大意
60年代,有個給我們家送奶的工人曾為了滿足我這個5歲男孩的好奇心,送了一個零錢對換器給我.
這位送奶工不僅僅送牛奶,還送奶酪,雞蛋諸如此類的東西.滿足訂購人家的需求.
送奶工配有我們家的鑰匙,不僅是出于冬天送奶的方便,還出于我們對他的信任.
如今送奶工已經(jīng)退出了歷史的舞臺.但是,保留在家里的牛奶箱還會令我不時地想起我兒時的故事,送奶工的故事.

解答 CDBA
56.C 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段第四句As a 5-year-old boy,I couldn't take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.可知,作者目不轉(zhuǎn)睛地盯著送奶工腰上的東西是出于一個5歲孩子的好奇.故選C.
57.D 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第三段 All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen.可知,作者家人與送奶工之間有著親密的關(guān)系,給送奶工鑰匙,不僅僅是方便其送奶,還有是出于對送奶工的信任.故選D.
58.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第四段Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk,thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete.Besides,milk is for sale everywhere,and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.可知,大公司競爭力強以及牛奶銷售到處可見,這兩者足以把送奶工擠出市場.故選B.
59.A 推理判斷題.根據(jù)文中故事的講述,可知作者懷念兒時的時光,懷念與送奶人之間的情誼.再由最后一段最后一句So I start telling stories of my boyhood,and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.作者開始講述我兒時的故事,講述送奶工的故事,可知作者在懷念舊日的美好時光.故選A.

點評 解推理判斷題時需要在理解原文字面意思的基礎(chǔ)上,通過對語篇邏輯關(guān)系的分析和細節(jié)的暗示,從而推理判斷出文章的深層意義及隱含意義.

A U-shaped object,resembling a silvery dome (穹頂), is now under inspection by Russian experts, after being secretly removed under cover of night from the possession of villagers who found it.

After discovering it on Sunday, locals from the village of Otradnesnky had managed to drag the “UFO fragment” from the thick forest where it had fallen. They loaded it onto a truck and took it through the snow to their village, where local inspectors then examined it before reporting Moscow authorities.

In an official statement, Sergey Bobrov, who found the object, agreed to keep it safe. But following their secret removal of the 200-kilogram metal fragment (碎片), police have it under close guard on orders from unnamed authorities.

The object has not had its origin confirmed yet. However, it does not come from a rocket or missile or be in any way associated with earth space technology, it has been announced. “The object found is not related to space technology. A final conclusion can be made after a detailed study of the object by experts,” said Roscosmos, the Russian space agency. Experts have also examined the object to determine whether it is dangerous. “We measured the radiation level near and inside the object. We found no radiation here,” said Yuri Bornyakov, who heads the rescue service department of the Kuybyshevsky district in the Novosibirsk region. Part of the fragment is made of ultra-strong titanium (鈦), said Valery Vasiliev, the head of the Kuybyshevsky Department for Civil Defence and Emergency Situations.

A guess that it had come from a failed Kazakhstan rocket or satellite launch was also denied. “You can see inside it. All is open. It’s empty. No danger here. We were asked to take and store it. We brought it here. And now we are going to wait until they come to take it if they need it," said local police spokesman Sergei Sulein.

1.The “UFO fragment” was found .

A. in the sky B. in the field

C. in the forest D. in the sea

2.We can infer from the passage that .

A. the “UFO fragment” comes from outer space

B. the fragment could be used to make a rocket

C. the person who found it will get a reward from Moscow

D. the local police will keep the “UFO fragment” for a while

3.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. A fallen “UFO fragment” in Russia. B. A UFO found by Russian villagers.

C. An inspection of a “UFO fragment”. D. A report on a failed rocket.

2.你叫Jenny,你的網(wǎng)友Peter(高一學(xué)生)即將面臨期末考試,近日,他就是否要請家教來幫他復(fù)習(xí)迎考向你求教,請給Peter回復(fù)一封電子郵件,郵件必須包括以下內(nèi)容:
結(jié)合你自身的學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)歷就是否請家教表達你的觀點及理由;

Hearing that you're wondering whether you should invite a tutor to help you prepare for the coming final examination,I'm shocked and I'll give you an exact'No'.
A tutor costs high,usually 150 yuan or more per hour,which you may not be able to afford.Besides,having studied that detailed information of tutor classes from my classmates,I find that most of the information is similar to that of school's,which is even with little or no extended materials,so it's absolutely no use if you listen to the teachers with full attention in the school and review what is on your notebook carefully after class.What's more,a tutor may make you depend fully onhim and lose your self-motivation on study,which is exactly the truth of study.Without it,you may never learn better.And that's why I say there's no need for you to invite a home tutor.
When it comes to preparing for the exam,I'd like to give you two suggestions.First,review the points which you're poor at.You will achieve twice the result with half the effort if reviewing the notes accompanied with several particular exercises.Second,check all the notes and make sure that you've captured all the details.
Try hard and I believe you can achieve a good score in the exam..
