【題目】任務(wù)型閱讀
My father used to be an amateur wrestler (業(yè)余摔跤者) and national champion. He was forced by his father to give up the sport in order to obtain gainful employment, which meant he wouldn't be able to win a medal for our country. Therefore, he made a vow that his unborn son would.
He was about to give up hope when one day, my younger sister Babita and I beat up two boys accidentally in response to critical comments. My dad found our potential to become wrestlers and began coaching us. We were required to do physical training early in the morning and have a short haircuts to avoid lice.
. We would complain about him all the time. Gradually, I realized that he wanted us to have a good future and not grow up to be ordinary housewives. Motivated, we willingly participated in his coaching.
With great efforts, he made us competitive wrestlers and I won the junior and senior championships, providing me with a chance to gain training in a National Sports Academy, where pride and pain fulfilled my mind. As a result, I found myself losing every match at the international level. After that, I tearfully made peace with papa and turned to him for help. Then he coached me patiently.
Despite difficulty, I finally became the first Indian female wrestler to qualify for the Olympics, inspiring dozens of Indian women to take to wrestling. Even now, papa's words are still in my mind “Geeta, think about all the girls who are thought to be inferior to boys, girls who are forced to do chores, girls who are married and have children. Not only will you compete with other countries, but also with those who look down upon women!”. I will never forget our father's instruction..
A. But his methods were cruel.
B. I almost gave up what papa had taught me.
C. Disappointingly, my mother gave birth to all girls.
D. My sister and I tried to escape.
E. I will always owe all success to him.
F. At first, my sister and I did not understand our father.
G. However, my mother didn't agree with him.

【答案】C;A;F;B;E
【解析】本文是一篇記敘文,作者的父親曾經(jīng)是摔跤運(yùn)動(dòng)的全國(guó)冠軍,迫于生活他放棄了摔跤,他把所有的希望寄托在將來(lái)的兒子身上,但是作者和妹妹都是女孩。一天爸爸發(fā)現(xiàn)了她們身上的摔跤天賦,并開始對(duì)我們進(jìn)行嚴(yán)格訓(xùn)練,最終作者成為了奧運(yùn)冠軍。
(1)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)上文“Therefore, he made a vow that his unborn son would.”爸爸將希望寄托在兒子身上;以及下一段中的“He was about to give up hope when one day”可推測(cè),沒(méi)有兒子出生,出生的孩子都是女孩。故選C。
(2)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。本段講述的是爸爸對(duì)“我們”的訓(xùn)練,所以本空很有可能與訓(xùn)練有關(guān)。根據(jù)下文“We were required to do physical training early in the morning and have a short haircuts to avoid lice.”,女孩被剃掉頭發(fā)是一件殘忍的事,可知爸爸的訓(xùn)練方式很嚴(yán)格,很殘酷。故選A。
(3)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。本段講述了“我們”對(duì)于爸爸的殘酷的訓(xùn)練方式從不情愿到接受的心態(tài)的變化。本空應(yīng)該和下一句在情感上保持一致,是抱怨、不理解、不接受的。故選F。
(4)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。根據(jù)下文“As a result, I found myself losing every match at the international level.”中可知,“我”總是失敗,前文中“我”不斷勝利,拿到冠軍。說(shuō)明在National Sports Academy的這段時(shí)間內(nèi)“我”退步了,故選B。
(5)考查對(duì)上下文的理解和推理判斷能力。本段提到了爸爸的話,并且“我”不會(huì)忘記爸爸的話。從全文來(lái)看,“我”的成功與爸爸是分不開的,成功與爸爸同在。故選E。

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,選擇最佳答案。
The private automobile (私家車)has long played an important role in the United States. In fact, it has become a necessary and important part of the American way of life. In 1986, sixty-nine percent of American families owned at least one car, and thirty-eight percent had more than one. By giving workers rapid transportation, the automobile has freed them from having to live near their place of work. This has encouraged the growth of the cities, but it has also led to traffic problems.
For farm families the automobile is very helpful. It has made it possible for them to travel to town very often for business and for pleasure, and also to transport their children to distant schools.
Family life has been affected(影響)in various ways. The car helps to keep families together when it is used for picnics, outings, and other shared experiences. However, when teenage children have the use of the car, their parents can't keep an eye on them. There is a great danger if the driver has been drinking alcohol or taking drugs, or showing off by speeding or breaking down traffic laws. Mothers of victims(受害者)of such accidents have formed an organization called MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving). These women want to prevent further tragedies (悲。. They have worked to encourage the government to limit the youngest drinking age. Students have formed a similar organization, SADD (Students Against Drunk Driving) and are spreading the same message among their friends.
For many Americans the automobile is a necessity. But for some, it is also a mark of social position and for young people, a sign of becoming an adult. Altogether, cars mean very much to Americans.

A.Cars have encouraged the growth of the cities.

C.Mothers have tried to persuade their children not to drink alcohol.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,選擇最佳答案。
Much meaning can be conveyed, clearly, with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.
Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he is sensing that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable.
The same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward others' stare at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to move his gaze, his intentions are obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is admiring her.
However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive.
If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to dominate you, you will feel uncomfortable. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. Quite the contrary.
In fact, continuous eye contact is confined to lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show affection that words cannot express.
Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.
(1)Which of the following behaviors is proper according to the passage?
A.To the opposite sex, stare at him or her.
B.To a stranger, avoid looking at him or her.
C.In a conversation, look at the listener all the time.
D.Make eye contact depending on the relationship and different situations.
(2)If two persons exchange eye contact gently for long, what is probably their relationship?
A.Boss and employee.
B.Lovers.
C.Teacher and student.
D.Strangers
(3)What's the best title of the passage?
A.Don't stare at others
B.Body language is important
C.Eyes can speak
D.Eye contact benefits you
