    She had a flat tire.Joe crawled under the car,changed the tire.But he got dirty and his hands hurt.She could not thank him enough and asked him how much she owned him.He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back,the next time she saw someone who needed help,she could give that person the assistance they needed,and Joe added,"And think of me."

解答 56--59 BADC
56.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段Even with the smile on his face,she was worried可知,即使他的臉上帶著微笑,她也非常擔心.即:她擔心受到傷害.故選B.
57.A 推理判斷題.根據(jù)第三段The old lady wondered how someone like her who seemed poor could be so kind to a stranger可知,老太太想知道像她那樣看起來很窮的人對一個陌生人是多么的友好.即:老太太得到了很好的服務.故選A.
58.D 細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第四段I am helping you because someone once helped me.If you really want to pay me back,here's what you do---Do not let the chain of love end with you可知,老太太是想給懷孕的女侍者一些幫助.故選D.
59.C 細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)最后一段可知,女侍者是Joe的妻子.故選C.B項:雖說Joe在第一段"開車回家",并沒有說他的工作是司機.

點評 人物故事類閱讀理解文章是高考英語常考材料之一.這類文章一般可分為人物傳記和短篇故事兩類.這兩類閱讀材料一般較長,即詞數(shù)多,而且命題也較多,特別是推理判斷題和事實細節(jié)題多.在做此類閱讀理解題時往往是材料看得懂,題目不好做的感覺.因此,在閱讀材料時要重點放在事情發(fā)展的過程和結(jié)果上,注意把握事件的發(fā)展進程及人物之間的關系,細節(jié)與主題的關系,用以說明人物性格特點的事實、作者的態(tài)度等,這些內(nèi)容往往是推理判斷題的命題點.至于事實細節(jié)題的解答,同學們切忌想當然或者憑印象,一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進行比較,再做出正確選擇.

9.There have always been laws against copying other people's ideas.However,when copying was only limited to copying something by hand,problems were solved easily.The solution was always the destruction or removal of the copy.Nowadays,the rise of the Internet has made the issue of intellectual property (知識產(chǎn)權(quán)) more complicated.
Almost every bit of information can be cut and pasted(粘貼) with a few clicks of a mouse.Many art forms such as writings,films,and music need new protection to ensure that people do not simply transfer them for free.Online illegal copying has been blamed for a huge reduction in the sales of many records because it is hard to convince people to buy something that they can get for free.Even the ideas behind traditional games,such as Scrabble,have been used without the owners'permission.
Old laws have been struggling to keep up.While music companies have been successful in persuading courts that action should be taken against people who illegally download music,the law is difficult to carry out.Furthermore,intellectual property rights vary widely from country to country,so it's up for debate which laws apply.Finally,there is the fact that many people simply do not see the act as theft(盜竊),since once the work has been digitized there is no clear physical object to steal in the first place.
All of these issues mean that companies involved with intellectual property-ideas or easily digitized information-are fighting desperately to get people to pay for the information they use,rather than paying for an object like a CD that they use.While the companies have sometimes been successful,the practical barriers to full protection seem insurmountable.
Finally,all that concerned parties can do is hope that their few successes scare off others and try to find new ways of making money.

28.Why do writings,films,and music need protection?D
A.They are very expensive.
B.They are impossible to copy.
C.It is easy to make CDs,books,and movies.
D.They are easily able to be transferred when in digital form.
29.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a problem of carrying out intellectual property rights?
D
A.Laws are not the same in all countries.
B.People do not see copying information as theft.
C.It is very hard to catch people who are breaking the law.
D.Internet service providers do not want to cooperate with the police.
30.The underlined word"insurmountable"in Paragraph 4means"B"
A.extremely expensive                  B.impossible to overcome
C.a(chǎn)gainst the law                       D.hard to prove
31.What can be inferred from this passage?B
A.Music and films will be unnecessary in the future.
B.New laws are necessary but difficult to put into practice.
C.The Internet is likely to become more important in the future.
D.Laws are just a way for greedy companies to control their products.

Babu is staying with Akanuma and about 60locals at a hall being used as a shelter.Rabu turned 12Wednesday.She seemed quite pleased to celebrate the event in her favorite pink outfit,which had been freshly washed for  the big day

14.   Windsurfing is a sport that combines sailing and surfing.In 1948,twenty-year-old Newman Darby first thought of using a handheld sail to contro1a small boat.Darby did not apply for a patent(專利)for his design at first.However,he is recognized as the inventor of the first sailboard.
Californians Jim Drake,a sailor and engineer,and Hoyle Schweitzer,a surfer and skier received the patent for a sailboard.They called their design a windsurfer.The early windsurfer boards measured 3.5meters long and weighed 60pounds.Later in the l980s,Newman Darby did apply for and receive a design patent for a one-person sailboat.
In the late l940s,Newman Darby found he could control a 3-meter-long sailboat and make turns even without a rudder(舵).In l964he designed the first universal joint(萬向接頭)to go along with a flat bottom sailing boat.This sailboard was equipped with a universal joint,a board and a kite-shaped free sail and thus windsurfing was born.
Naomi Darby,Newman's wife,was the first woman windsurfer and helped her husband build and design the first sailboard.She sailed while standing up,controlling the boat without the use of a rudder.She tilted(傾斜)the sail to change directions.This was something that had never been done before.
Hoyle Schweitzer began producing sailboards in the early 1970s.The sport became very popular in Europe.By the late 1970s,windsurfing fever had Europe firmly in its grasp with one in every three families having a sailboard.
The first windsurfing world championship was held in 1973.Windsurfing first became an Olympic sport for men in l984and for women in l992.

45.Jim Drake and Hoyle Schweitzer received the patent for the design ofA.

12.Family get-together are a great way for family members to understand the lives each other and strengthen family bonds.For younger family members,get-togethers can reinforce(加強)family traditions and can be learning experiences that help them to grow and mature.Traditional Family get-togethers can include a meal and an activity such as going to see a movie.However,there are other ideas that can help make get-togethers memorable and provide moments that enrich the lives of family members.
_____
One way to make a family get-together memorable is to give it an environmentally friendly theme.A garden can be planted,for example.Include vegetables that can be eaten and future get-togethers.A tree could be planted and called the family tree.The family get-together could also be planned for a specific place such as a community nature center.The family could participate in an environmental project such as a neighborhood clean-up,or cleaning streams or roadsides.
Be active
Family get-togethers can have physical activity as a main focus of the fun.Families can gather at a beach and go swimming.Building sand castles also requires exertion.Other beach activities can include kite flying and searching for shells.A family get-together can also be planned for a park that has a nature trail.A picnic meal can provide food,and everyone can take a hike for exercise.A family get-together can also have a sports theme when planned for a location that has a basketball court,tennis court or some other sporting venue.For places with snow,families can go sledding or skiing together.
Museum or historic Site
A family get-together can also be an educational gathering.For example,a get-together planned at a museum can provide entertainment as well as educational value.Family members can talk and catch up with one another while touring the museum.Contact the local chamber of commerce( 商會) to find historical sites,which can provide memorable scenery to a family get-together.
