試題分析：如果不喜歡父母給你取的名字該怎么辦呢？在本文中作者給了你很滿意的答復，那就是你可以隨意的改名字。法律允許你改名字，允許你取任何名字，只要你的名字不是用來進行欺騙的。而且你所要做的就是更改一些檔案記錄，并且開始使用你的新名字，以及練好你的簽名而已。
1.B不定代詞辨析。A.沒人；B.每個人；C.所有人；D.某人。從上句可知此處泛指所有人的名字都是別人給起的，故排除A、D選項。再根據(jù)主謂一致的原則可知B為正確選項。
2.A名詞辨析。A符號；B.禮物；C.紀念品；D. 樣品。從語境可知人們不要太在意名字，它只是個代替人的符號而已，所以A選項正確。
3.C動詞辨析 。A.知道；B.信任；C.使。。。滿足或滿意；D.同意。從下文可以判斷C選項符合語境，父母給你取得名字可能不符合你的愿望，需要。satisfy one’s need“滿足需求”故C項正確。
4.A副詞辨析。A.定期地，經(jīng)常地；B.合法地；C.幾乎不；D.勇敢地。從下文with some determination, you can, too.可知屏幕影星是經(jīng)常更換名字。故選A。
5.D形容詞辨析。A穩(wěn)固的；B.有價值的；C.實踐的；D靈活的。根據(jù)下文可知法律在更改名字方面沒有人們想象的嚴格，是比較靈活的，所以此處填D。
6.C介詞短語辨析。A.事實上；B.結(jié)果，因此；C.例如；D.表面上。上文講人們原以為改名字會很難，但是當真正去做的時候卻發(fā)現(xiàn)其實很簡單，此處是舉例說明法律在關(guān)于名字方面是很寬松的，故C選項正確。
7.A動詞辨析。A.承擔（責任）；B.對付； C 稱呼；D. 得到。根據(jù)常識可知有的地方婦女結(jié)婚后要改為丈夫的姓氏，所以此處填A，意思是“沒有法律規(guī)定婦女要遵照丈夫的姓氏”。
8.C短語辨析。A.仿佛；B 只要；C即使；D.要是。。就好了。上句“父母可以隨意給孩子取名字”和后面句子“孩子的名字可以不遵照父母任何一方的姓氏”兩句話之間是一種遞進的假設關(guān)系，由此可知C選項正確。
9.B形容詞辨析。A.流行的；B.官方的，正式的；C.知道的；D學術(shù)的。從下文Under common law,is necessary to start using the name of your choice可知改名字沒必要弄的很正式，只要在某些法律規(guī)定下開始使用即可。所以B選項正確。
10.C代詞辨析。A.什么；B那；C.它；D.哪個。從句法結(jié)構(gòu)可知此處的真正主語是to start using the name of your choice，it做形式主語。句型是it is necessary to do sth。所以C項正確。
11.B動詞短語辨析。A.被用；B.應該；C. 被希望；D.期望。從上文可知此處是強調(diào)要使用新名字的必要性和重要性，所以B項符合語境。
12.B副詞辨析。A.代替；B.此外；C.幸運地；D否則。從上下文可知you must change all your identification和前面內(nèi)容是遞進關(guān)系，所以B選項正確。
13.C名詞辨析。A.價值；B.筆記；C.記錄；D.描述。根據(jù)and可知此空和前面identification應該同樣是有關(guān)人身份名字的詞，所以C選項正確。句意：此外，你必須要改變你所有的證件和檔案記錄。
14.A名詞辨析。A.簽名；B.書法；C.需要；D發(fā)音。根據(jù)上文以及后句until you wirte it naturally可知此處是指人的簽名，所以A項正確。
15.A副詞辨析。A連續(xù)地，.一貫地；B.固定地；C.漂亮地；D.有吸引力地。從詞語搭配上可知描述一個人寫字要用自然流暢等詞語，所以判斷A選項正確。
16.B考查非謂語。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知此處是make sb do sth “讓某人做某事”短語，故B項正確。
17.D形容詞辨析。A.可能的；B.不可能的；C. 方便的；D.可能的。從詞的用法判斷四個選項中只有l(wèi)ikely的主語可以用sb，句型為 sb is likely to do sth“某人有可能做某事”。D選項正確。
18.C動詞辨析。A.許可進入；B.容忍；C.禁止D. 允許。從上文可知法律允許你有使用任何名字的權(quán)利，換句話也就是說沒有法律禁止你使用你選擇的名字，故C選項正確。
19.A連詞辨析。A.除非；B.何時；C.如果；D.因為。從語境可知此處是指一種例外情況，如果你利用名字去欺詐那是法律不允許的，所以A選項正確。
20.D引導詞辨析。A.誰的；B.不管什么；C.哪；個D.無論什么。由語法結(jié)構(gòu)可知by后面是賓語從句，故排除B選項，而A、C選項不合語境，所以選D。句意：請享受你的權(quán)利把，想叫什么名字就叫什么名字。
考點：考查社會生活類短文。

Wind , water, fire and ice-these powerful natural forces have shaped the land of America in the past. They are still changing it today.
The Colorado River slowly cut down through stone to make the Grand Canyon(大峽谷).
Long ago, ice sheets cut Yosemite Valley and the Great Lakes, and glaciers(冰川) are still on the move in Alaska.
Wind and rain storm hit the land from time to time. Fires sometimes burn down forests and destroy the homes of wild animals. This happened in Yellowstone Park in 1988.
Dead volcanic mountains such as Haleakala on Maui and Carter Lakein Oregon are beautiful to look at. But there are several active volcanoes in the US, especially along the Pacific Coast. There are also many earthquakes in this area. Scientists can do nothing to control earthquakes or volcanoes. This was shown clearly on May 18, 1980. At 8:32 that morning, Mount St Helens in Washington state broke out. The top of the mountain was blown off.
Over 60 people –campers, scientists, journalists, forest workers—were killed. Hundreds of square miles of forests were knocked down. In towns over 100 miles away, day suddenly became night. An ash cloud hid the sun for many hours. Towns and fields in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho were covered with dirty gray ash.
Scientists knew that Mt St Helens might erupt(爆發(fā)) soon. But no one could say when. And no one expected the terrible strength of the eruption. Many people were surprised and unready. Harry R. Truman, 84, owned a small hotel in Mt St Helens. Scientists had asked people to move away because the volcano was becoming dangerous.
But Harry Truman would not leave his home. Now it is covered with many feet of dirty ash. A small cross stands above the place where Harry probably died. Perhaps it is better that he did not see the destruction of Mt St Helens, the once beautiful lake, and the forests.
But slowly, life is returning to the dead area around the mountain. Grass and small plants are beginning to grow again. Deer and birds have been seen. The land will never be the same as it once was. Perhaps Mt St Helens will erupt again. But this is all part of nature’s pattern of change, and man has little power to control it.
【小題1】Choose the best title for this passage.

Her frozen fingers touched the flame trying to feel alive. She could feel the warmth but it was a cold heat, as if the candle was rejecting her.
Her arms turned red because of the cold, her short sleeved shirt not giving her enough warmth. The winter air grabbed(抓住) at her arms, causing her pain, but she didn’t mind. She knew she should put her jacket on, it was winter in Connecticut, but that would be giving up. Up here, in this tree she felt safe.
She looked at the candle, surrounded by hardening wax(蠟). She placed her fingers gently on the warm green wax. This candle was a reminder of her life inside that house, a life she would have to return to eventually.
As a child, she had gotten this candle. She spent all she had on it. The beautiful crystal box （水晶盒）had caught her eye. Five whole nickels（五分幣） had brought her that candle.
She gave it to her mother for Mother’s Day. Her mother had managed a smile and put it on a shelf. “It’s very pretty, honey! I will put it right here.” Since then that candle had never been moved, never been lighted, sitting dusty on a cluttered shelf that no one could see. Later on, her parents got divorced.
By now the candle was colder than the air and the darkness was complete. The snow on the ground made the night lighter and less satisfying than it had been before the first snowfall. She liked the darkness because she felt safe in it. From the glances of her friends who liked the girl she used to be. From the boys who could never figure out who she was. From her guidance counselor(顧問) whose endless worried looks never made her feel any better.
No one was outside at this time of night. She was alone in the world, just how she liked it. Just as she was about to lean back against the branch, she heard a sound.
She heard footsteps breaking the ice in the snow, heading toward her. He was making his way toward the white fence at the edge of the building, right against the road. Normally she would have ignored this person and stayed on her branch faraway from human contact, but this figure had something with him. He trudged(吃力地走) toward the white fence carrying a case. The figure reached the fence, opened the case and took out a shiny object.
She took her eyes off this figure only long enough to climb down the tree to get a better view of him. She reached the bottom and saw that the person had turned to face the street, sitting on the white fence that she and her friends once sat on. She stepped carefully on the ice, making her way toward him.
And then a beautiful sound of music came from the shiny object. She stopped and listened to it. She started walking towards the guy again. Just as she was about to step onto the snow banks, she slipped on the ice crashing to the ground. The figure turned around in surprise and a sudden recognition fell upon them both.
【小題1】The girl was hiding in the tree at deep night to ______.
| A．keep herself from the cold | B．wait for the boy to come |
| C．want to be left alone | D．seek safety from any hurt |
| A．the girl suffered a lot in her life |
| B．the girl’s parents divorced because of her |
| C．teachers and friends treated the girl badly |
| D．the girl used to stay in the tree when feeling sad |
| A．leaning back against the branch | B．being alone in the world |
| C．not being disturbed at night | D．it being dark with snow around |
| A．knew the person | B．knew what the object was |
| C．realized her wishes | D．would never feel alone any more |

For their nick-of-time acts, Toby, a 2-year-old dog, and Winnie, a cute cat, were named Dog and Cat of the Year by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
As Amy Paul choked(哽住) on a piece of apple at her home, her dog jumped up, landing hard on her chest and forcing the piece in her throat out. When the Keesling family of Indiana was about to be killed by carbon monoxide, their cat clawed at the wife Cathy’s hair until she woke up and called for help.
No one could explain their timely heroics.
Both pets were rescued by their owners in infancy-----Toby as a 4-week-old thrown into a garbage bin to die, and Winnie as a week-old orphan hiding under a barn, so helpless that Cathy’s husband, Eric, had to feed her milk with an eyedropper.
As the Keeslings recalled it, a gas-driven pump being used broke down, spreading carbon monoxide through the house. By the time Winnie went to rescue, the couple’s 14-year-old son was already unconscious. “Winnie jumped on the bed and was clawing at me, with a kind of angry sound,” Cathy Keesling said. The state police responding to her 911 call said the family was only minutes from death, judging by the amount of poisonous gas in the house.
Amy Paul’s husband was at his job when she took a midday break from making jewelry and bit into an apple. “Normally I peel them, but I read in Good Housekeeping Magazine that the skin has all the nutrients, so I ate the skin, and that’s what caused me to choke,” she recalled. “I couldn’t breathe and I was in panic when Toby jumped on me. He never does that, but he did, and saved my life.”
Both Toby and Winnie accompanied their owners to the awards luncheon.
1.What would be the suitable title for the passage?
A. Great Honors for Cat and Dog
B. Dog and Cat Honored for Saving Their Masters
C. Unforgettable Experiences
D. So Smart Animals Are
2.Winnie saved the lives of its owner’s whole family in an accident by __________.
A. jumping onto its owner B. calling for help
C. making some strange noises D. clawing at Cathy’s hair
3.Which of the following has the similar meaning to the underlined word “infancy” in Paragraph 4?
A. babyhood B. Youth C. Middle age D. agedness
4.What caused the carbon monoxide spreading through the house?
A. A pump breaking down. B. A driver breaking into the house.
C. The burning gas. D. The poisonous gas.
5.Why did Amy Paul choke on a piece of apple?
A. She was too young to care for herself.
B. She had a big bite.
C. She didn’t peel the skin as usual.
D. The apple was too hard.

A 16-year-old South Dakota boy who became lost while hunting and spent 16 hours alone in the Black Hills National Forest says he was scared but still managed to make a survival plan.
Austin DuVall, of Rapid City, became lost on Nov.3 while hunting with his father. He ran after a deer, and soon found himself alone. “I ran after a deer, but I didn’t get it,” he said. “Then I was really lost.”
He had only his hunting rifle(步槍) and the clothes he was wearing. He had no food or water and had nothing that could help him find his way to safety. “I knew that no one could hear me. I decided to just sleep and get up in the morning and find safety,” he said.
Austin climbed up on a rock and slept through the night. Then he awoke and relied on skills he learned in a hunter safety course. He followed a stream to an occupied cabin. The couple there called his parents and cooked him a breakfast. “ It’s probably one meal I’ll never forget for the rest of my life,” he said.
After DuVall’s disappearance, a lot of emergency officials and more than 100 volunteers went searching for him. “He wasn’t sitting there waiting for someone to come and find him,” said his father, Steve DuVall. “We didn’t find him; he found himself.”
Mike Kintigh, regional supervisor for the Game, Fish & Parks Department, said one or two hunters will go missing each year, but rarely for more than 24 hours. “We’re a little bit unique in the Black Hills as it’s hard to get lost for a very long time. That’s because we’ve got so many roads here compared to the Rocky Mountains,” Kintigh said. “You can certainly spend a very uncomfortable night in the woods like Austin did.”
1.After Austin realized he lost his way, he ___.
A．was very nervous but excited
B．cried aloud for help
C．tried to find a safe place
D．decided to sleep in the wild
2. Who saved Austin according to his father?
A．The couple in the cabin.
B．Emergency officials.
C．Volunteers.
D．Himself.
3.From what Mike Kintigh said, we learn that _______.
A．if someone gets lost in the Rocky Mountains, it is hard to find a way out
B．too many people go missing in the Black Hills every year
C．the rescue team is skillful enough to find the lost people in less than 24 hours
D．people who are lost in the Black Hills have to spend a night in the woods
