【題目】閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當(dāng)?shù)膬?nèi)容(1個單詞)或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。
Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?
In 1969, the pollution is terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio. It (be) imaginable that it could be ever be cleaned up. The river was so polluted that it (actual) caught fire and burned. Now year later, this river is one of most outstanding examples of environmental cleanup.
But the river wasn't changed in a few days even a few months. It took years of work (reduce) industrial pollution and clean the water. Finally, that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is (clean) than ever.
Maybe you are facing an impossible situation. Maybe you have a habit is driving your family crazy. Possibly you drink too much or don't know how to control your credit card use. When you face such impossible situation, don't you want a quick fix and something to change immediately.
While there are (amaze) stories of instant transformation, for most of us the (change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work, like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be (patience)

【答案】was；actually；the；or；to reduce；cleaner；that/which；amazing；changes；patient
【解析】你正面臨著一個看起來不可能解決的情況嗎？
① was 根據(jù)本段第一句In 1969，the pollution was terrible 可知本段敘述的是過去發(fā)生的事情。the Cuyahoga River Cleveland 在過去被污染地如此地嚴重，過去沒有人能夠想象到這條河被清理干凈。故填was.
②actually 本句中使用副詞actually做狀語修飾謂語動詞caught fire，actual是形容詞，不能在句中做狀語， 通常只做定語或者表語修飾名詞。
③the 本句橫線后面的most是最高級的形式，所以使用the most outstanding的形式。
④or 但是這條河流的改變不是幾天或者幾個月的事情。本句中的或者”表示選擇的意思。
⑤to reduce 考查固定句式:It takes sb some time to do sth做某事花了某人時間;句中的不定式to reduce he industrial pollution and dean the water是句子真正的主語。前面的it是形式主語。
⑥cleaner 句意：最后人們的努力得到了回報，現(xiàn)在這條河比以前更干凈了。橫線后面有than ,說明橫線上 應(yīng)該使用比較級的形式。
⑦that/which 本句是一個定語從句，先行詞是ahabit，定語從句中使用關(guān)系動詞that/which指代先行詞在 句做主語。
⑧amazing 現(xiàn)在分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞常常修飾事物，過去分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞常常修飾人或者與人有關(guān)的事物。 橫線后面是名詞story，說明應(yīng)該使用現(xiàn)在分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞。
⑨changes 本句中謂語部分是系動詞are，說明主語應(yīng)該是一個復(fù)數(shù)形式的名詞，所以使用changes。
⑩patient 橫線前面有系動間be,說明本句是一個祈使句be patient耐心一點。因為很多變化都是逐漸發(fā)生 的，需要很多努力，我們要耐心一點。

【題目】How to Improve Speed Reading Skills

Speed reading is one of many skills that can improve your reading comprehension and shorten your study time. 【1】.

Look at groups of words, not single words.

【2】. However, if you can get into the habit of reading groups or chunks of words at one time, then you can read much faster. Start by trying to look at a group of three or four words at once, then work up to looking at an entire line of words. Focus on words that give the sentence meaning, such as the nouns and verbs and pay less attention to the filler words, such as “A, the, and, etc.”

Scan for keywords.

Scanning is a highly effective way of extracting answers from a text without really reading it. If you know exactly what you are looking for—a name, a date, a statistic, or a specific word—you can find it quickly by skipping over large chunks of the text. To scan, first visualize the word, number, or phrase you would like to find. 【3】. The information you are looking for should pop out at you.

【4】.

You can train yourself to read faster by timing yourself as you go. Start by getting your base time. Set a timer for fifteen minutes, and speed read as you normally do. 【5】. Do not count the words, just the pages or paragraphs. Record your figures: for instance, you might write “15min/6.5 pages.”

A. Then, run your eyes rapidly over the text

B. Race the clock

C. Check your comprehension

D. If you read a text one word at a time, then this will slow your reading speed way down

E. Here are some Speed Reading Techniques

F. One of the reasons you read slowly is that you have to pause sometimes to understand what a passage is saying

G. When the timer goes off, check to see how far you have got

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項中，選出最佳選項。
C
There are an extremely large number of ants worldwide. Each individual ant hardly weigh anything, but together they weigh almost the same as all of mankind. They also live nearly everywhere, except on frozen mountain tops or around the Antarctic. For animals their size, ants have been surprisingly successful, largely due to their wonderful social conduct.
In groups that vary in size from a few hundred to tens of millions, they organize their lives with a clear distribution of labor. Even more amazing is how they achieve this level of organization. While we use sound and sight to communicate, ants depend mostly on pheromone (信息素), which is a kind of chemical released by individuals and smelled or tasted by fellow members of a group. When an ant finds food, it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is. When an ant comes under attack or is dying, it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the whole group to prepare for a defensive fight.
In fact, when it comes to the art of war, ants have no equal. They are completely fearless and will take on an animal much larger than themselves, attacking in large groups and beating their target. They show so much devotion to their group that not only soldier ants but also worker ants will sacrifice their lives to help defeat an enemy.
United and devoted, these little animals have survived on the earth for more than 140 million years, far longer than dinosaurs. Because they think as one, they have a united intelligence greater than you would expect from one small individual ant.
（1）We can learn from the passage that ants are __________.
A.unwilling to share food
B.more successful than mankind
C.not used to living in cold environment
D.too many to achieve any organization
（2）Ants can use pheromones for __________.
A.tasting food
B.communication
C.warning enemies
D.arranging labor
（3）What does the underlined expression "take on" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Help out.
B.Give in to.
C.Show favor to.
D.Fight against.
（4）Ants have survived for so long mainly because of ____________.
A.their social cooperation
B.their large group size
C.their fearless attack
D.their individual intelligence

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。
B
Rent（出租） a room
Spare room? Not only will a lodger（房客）earn you an income, but also, thanks to the government-backed “rent a room” program, you won't have to pay any tax on the first ￡4500 you make per year. Try advertising your room on Roomspare or Roommateeasy.
Make money during special events
Don't want a full-time lodger? Then rent on a short-term basis. If you live in the capital, renting a room out during the Olympics or other big events could bring in money. Grashpadder can advertise your space.
Live on set
Renting your home out as a “film set” could earn you hundreds of pounds a day, depending on the film production company and how long your home is needed. A quick search on the Internet will bring up dozens of online companies that allow you to register your home for free—but you will be charged if your home gets picked.
Use your roof
You need the right kind of roof, but some energy companies pay the cost of fixing solar equipment (around ￡14,000), and let you use the energy produced for nothing. In return, they get paid for unused energy fed back into the National Grid. However, you have to sign a 25-year agreement with the supplier, which could prevent you from changing the roof.
（1）Where can you put an advertisement to rent out a room during a big event?
A.On Letpark.
B.On Roomspare.
C.On Grashpadder.
D.On Roommateeasy.
（2）If you want to use energy for free, you have to_____.

【題目】Two weeks before my 12th birthday, my teacher asked me to conduct an experiment. When I mixed some powder together, they exploded. Molten liquid hit me in the face, but I felt no pain.

I vividly remember standing there in a state of calm. I thought I was in a dream, but however hard I struggled to swim to the surface of consciousness, I couldn’t wake up. I didn’t understand how terrifying it was until I heard people saying, ＂Who’s that?＂ That’s when I knew I was unrecognizable.

I was taken to hospital, but the doctors didn’t know what to do with me. Later I was flown to Houston for surgery. Between the ages of 13 and 16, I had 40 operations. As each operation came and went, my vision would come back, then fade again. Eventually, it faded completely and I had what was left of my eyes removed for cosmetic reasons.

Since then, I have lived in total darkness. Most blind people, even if they don’t have any sight they’re aware of, are still able to sense light. That gives them a sense of day and night. But not me. I absolutely lost that sense of time passing.

For many years, I felt my sight loss darkening my life like the loss of my parents from which I would never recover. But when I was in my 40s, I realized I had to find a way to live. I trained to become a counselor, and that has helped me see my experiences in a different way. I can’t fix people’s broken lives — just like I can’t fix my sight — but I can help them find a way to manage.

Sometimes it feels as if all the struggles and negative experiences I’ve lived through were in fact a kind of preparation for helping others to make their own way towards the light.

【1】How did the writer feel when the mixed powder exploded?

A. Painful. B. Frightened. C. Calm. D. Desperate.

【2】 What can we know about the writer?

A. She recovered her sight at last.

B. She just has slight sense of sight.

C. She is now living a meaningful life.

D. She received 40 operations in 28 years.

【3】What is the passage mainly about?

A. Telling her own experience.

B. Encouraging the blind to cheer up.

C. Calling on people to care for the blind.

D. Warning students doing experiments is dangerous.

Do you want to worry less? Of course you do, right? That’s like me asking if I could send you free bacon. Worry is like black mold — it appears in damp conditions and spreads uncontrollably. And often times we don’t realize it’s there until it’s killing us. We must get rid of worry before it destroys us. But how? 【1】

Do What You Need to Do.

【2】 You ought not to avoid tough projects or hard conversions until the last moment. If you don’t do what you should be doing, you will end up spending the rest of the time worrying about the must-do things. Believe it or not, the anxiety that comes from worrying is much worse than the task we’re worried about.

Get Intentional.

I think many of us act like we’re puppets in a play and we’re waiting for something or someone to put us in the right place. You just react to whatever is going on. We need to stop letting life just happen. We need to live on purpose. 【3】

【4】

You can’t have intentionality without making plans. Making plans will enable you to achieve your aims more smoothly. Yet, don’t place your plans in stone. You can adjust your plans flexibly. Accept changes. Make new plans. 【5】

There are other ways to lessen worry. As long as you are determined to take action, you will live a worry-free life.

A. Worry ruins creativity.

B. Make

C. Do what you should be doing.

D. Here are some effective ways to deal with it.

E. Then move forward.

F. You do the same as people around you do.

G. Nothing can cause worry like purposelessness.
