It is almost  40__ that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his  41_ ,“First of all I checked up my  42  condition and found myself not in fatal danger. As there was no  43  to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from  44  . In this way I fell lightly asleep. ”

When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at ‘bed and breakfast’ houses, because this kind of accommodation gives foreign visitors a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.

“We didn’t stay at ‘B&B’ (bed and breakfast) houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.”

I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought “VACANCIES” meant “holidays”, because the Spanish word for “holidays” is “vacaciones”. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said “VACANCIES”, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said “NO VACANCIES”, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!

We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word “DIVERSION” means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word “DIVERSION” on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, their car was soon stopped.

English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris, when someone offered me some more coffee, I said “Thank you” in French. I meant that I would like some more. However , to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that “Thank you” in French means “No, thank you”.

1.My Spanish friends wanted advice about ______.

A.learning English in England

B.finding places to stay in England

C.driving their car on English roads

D.going to England to have fun

2.I suggested that they stay at ‘B&B’ houses because ______.

A.it would be available for them to practice English

B.it would be much cheaper than staying in hotels

C.it would be convenient for them to have dinner

D.it would be easy to find accommodation there

3.“NO VACANCIES” in English means ______.

A.no free rooms      B.with free rooms     C.not away on holiday  D.no holidays at all

4.If you see a road sign that says “DIVERSION”, you will ______.

A.get held by the traffic policemen

B.have a lot of fun and enjoy yourself

C.find the road is blocked by people

D.have to take another different road

5.When someone offered me more coffee and I said “Thank you” in French, I ______.

A.didn’t really want any more coffee

B.wanted the coffee pot taken away

C.really wanted some more coffee

D.wanted to express my politeness

科目:高中英語 來源:2011-2012學年江西省高三周考英語試題 題型:單項填空

A year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father went by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute,” someone might say, “are talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?”

The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two week to prepare, a period I spent searching for a briefcase and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class, I’m Mr. Davis.” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was there. I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.

I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards, and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.

“All right then,” I said. “Okay, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit on the edge of the desk, overlooking a forest of raised hands. Every student would shout to be heard, and I would knock on something in order to silence them. I would yell, “Calm down, you’ll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!”

A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I instructed the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.

1.The author took the job to teach writing because______________.

A.he wanted to be respected

B.he had written some stories

C.he wanted to please his father

D.he had dreamed of being a teacher

2.What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?

A.He would be aggressive in his first class.

B.He was well-prepared for his first class.

C.He got nervous upon the arrival of his first class.

D.He waited long for the arrival of his first class.

3.Before he started his class, the author asked the students to_______.

A.write down their suggestions on the paper cards

B.cut maple leaves out of the construction paper

C.cut some cards out the construction paper

D.write down their names on the paper cards

4. What did the students do when the author started his class?

A.They began to talk.

B.They stayed silent.

C.They raised their hands.

D.They shouted to be heard.

5.The author chose the composition topic probably because________.

A.he got disappointed with his first class

B.he had prepared the topic before class.

C.he wanted to calm down the students

D.he thought it was an easy topic
