內(nèi)容概要：文章開始部分記敘了作者看電影時的遭遇，接著談?wù)摿俗髡邔δ刚Z的特有情感。
小題1:夏日的夜晚想到電影院享受空調(diào)，說明不愿面對的是居室的“熱”。而heated表示“熱烈的”或“人為加過熱的”，顯然不妥。
小題2:四個詞的全義分別為：crack“裂縫，（因破裂而形成的）縫隙”；blank“空白、空地”；break“破裂處”；opening“空隙”。這里指頭與頭之間的空檔（不是細(xì)縫），以用opening為宜。
小題3:angle“角度”，表示頭得左右擺動才可看清楚。
小題4:這對男女的動作是交替進行的。
小題5:attraction“吸引力”，attention“注意力”，affection“愛意、情感”，motion“動機”，四個詞中只有offection與那對年輕人的甜言蜜語和親昵舉動相吻合。
小題6:as意為“如同”。
小題7:從時間上來看，后面的兩個動作是“之后”發(fā)生的。
小題8:后面popcorn為“爆米花”，用咀嚼（chew）較為合適。由crunch一詞也可推知。
小題9:though放于句末表示“然而”,為副詞，與前一句意義上形成轉(zhuǎn)折。
小題10:由后面的just heard推知，不再聽到其它聲音了。
小題11:sound“聲響”，voice“聲音”，rhythm“節(jié)奏”，tone“音調(diào)”，此處指嚼爆米花的聲音，自然應(yīng)該用sound。
小題12:思緒已不在電影上，而是轉(zhuǎn)到了其他方面，故選wander（漫游）。
小題13:過去經(jīng)常做某事用used to。happen to do (碰巧做)有悖于frequently，應(yīng)注意排除。
小題14:對Kojak 的好感“一直”持續(xù)到看到他講一口流利的英語。
小題15:由第16空前面那句話可以想象他的英語一定講得不錯。
小題16:“feel like+從句”用以表示人的心理感受。
小題17:根據(jù)意義和詞的用法可排除余者。
小題18:根據(jù)后面一句話，特別是in silence不難選定此空答案。
小題19:“講……語言”用speak。
小題20:come out在此可以理解為“結(jié)果是”。

“Dad! He took a book without paying!” I yelled (大叫). My father looked surprised. Before the boy could say anything, his mother grabbed his arm and shook it. “Is it true? You stole? Tell me!” Everyone was quiet. The boy began to cry, and he nodded (點頭) his head. He pulled out the comic book (漫畫書) from under his shirt. “Oh, Mr Kim. I am sorry! My Ted made a big mistake!” Mrs Diaz told my father. She tried to take the comic book, but Ted wouldn’t let go. “It’s OK. He can keep it,” my father said with a smile. “Oh, no,” Mrs Diaz said. “Let me pay right now…” She dug in her purse. “How much?” “Three seventy-five.”
Mrs Diaz’s eyes widened, and she dug deeper. I saw her mouth make a small line. “Three seventy-five?” she asked.
“It’s OK. You can pay later,” my father said. “No,” Mrs Diaz said. She kept looking in her purse. “I have money here.” I felt bad for yelling, for I realized that Ted had tried to steal the comic book because he didn’t have the money. Maybe the boy could have a job, I thought. I had an idea. “What if he worked with me?” I asked. They turned to me. I said, “He can work with me to pay for the comic book.” “Good,” my father said smiling at me. Mrs Diaz nodded. She turned to her son, “You hear? You will work and buy the comic book!” “ Yes, Mama,” Ted said, hanging his head.
As they left, Ted looked back, and though he still seemed sad, he stuck out (伸出) tongue at me.
Ted has been working here for two weeks. He has paid for the comic book, but my father says he is such a good worker that he can work with me as long as he wants. We are friends now.
小題1:Where did the story most probably take place?
A．In a classroom.B．In a supermarket.

A．Ted took the book by mistakeB．Ted wanted to keep the book
C．Ted didn’t want to go homeD．Ted didn’t think he was wrong
小題3:From the second paragraph, we may infer (推斷) that Mrs Diaz __________.
A．didn’t think her son stole the book
B．had been out of work for a long time
C．forgot to take money with her that day
D．couldn’t afford to pay for the book
小題4:In the last paragraph, what does the author mainly tell?

How to protect children Web fans from unsuitable material on-line while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the U.S.
For some parents, the Internet can seem like a jungle, filled with danger for their children. But jungles contain wonders as well as dangers and with good guides, some education, and a few precautions(預(yù)防措施), the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated(航行). “Kids have to be on-line. If we tell our kids they can’t have access(機會) to the Internet, we’re cutting them off from their future,” said an expert.
Most kids have started to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way to limit access would be to use what is known as a “content screener(過濾器)”. But this can’t be wholly reliable(可靠), and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing(瀏覽) the Internet.
A few other tips
●Don’t put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where mum or dad can keep an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.
●Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make on-line.
●Tell your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially like address and phone number.
●And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.
小題1:The passage is mainly about the subject of _______.
A．American children going on-lineB．Internet in America
C．a(chǎn)ppreciating InternetD．opposing children’s on-line
小題2:The best way to protect children from improper material is _______.
A．to install(安裝) a content screener on the computer
B．to buy some search engines for the children
C．to be nearby when they are surfing the Internet
D．to talk to the children and persuade them to tell right from wrong
小題3:Which of the following is right according to the passage?
A．Surfing the Internet is the best method of educating children.
B．Children’s not having access to Internet may have effect on their progress.
C．Using a content screener is most reliable for keeping children having access to Internet.
D．Searching engines can help children to select materials fit for them.
小題4:According to the passage, we can infer that _______.
A．soft wares fit for children want programming
B．a(chǎn) child who is on-line is in danger
C．Internet is a jungle full of danger
D．Internet contains a lot of harmful sites

Every night for a year, Neil Simmons quietly went out of his house. He wanted to “talk” to an owl settling for the night at the end of his garden. He made owl cries like a real wild owl (貓頭鷹)and was happy to hear the bird “hooting (大聲叫囂)” back to him.
Last year Fred Cornes moved in next door. He heard an owl hooting and answered back. For 12 months the neighbors got into the back gardens of their homes, thinking they were talking with nature. Mr. Simmons kept a diary of all his talks with his bird friend. They would both be out again tonight if it wasn’t for a chance talk between their wives.
Mr. Simmons said. “My wife Kim was telling Fred’s wife Wendy about my owl watching and described how I got the birds to boot back. She said, ‘That’s funny — that’s just what Fred has been doing.’ Then the penny dropped, I felt such a fool when I found out. The trouble is that owl calls aren’t exactly the same and it’s easy to make a mistake.”
Mr. Cornes said, “I’m really flattered (過獎). I didn’t know I sounded so real. I love nature and I couldn’t resist hooting at the owls. I was very excited when they hooted back. I’m sorry that I was fooling my neighbor who was fooling me.”
45．After the talk between the wives, the two men would probably _________ .
A．stop observing owls            B．not stay up hooting again

The Banquet has been described as a loose adaptation(節(jié)選)of "Hamlet", featuring royal conflicts(沖突) and revenge（復(fù)仇）which is set in 10th century China. The new Emperor (Ge You) has usurped(篡奪) the throne（帝位）by murdering the previous Emperor. He marries the Empress (Zhang Ziyi), wife of the previous Emperor and stepmother to the Crown Prince (Daniel Wu).
At first, the Empress seeks only to protect herself, but as the new Emperor grows suspicious(疑心) of all those around him, she realizes that only by helping the Crown Prince kill him can she hope to survive. Together with the Chief Minister (Ma Jingwu)，she tries to carry out this plot, but when the Prince is destroyed by hesitation, she thinks out a new plan and seeks the throne for herself. As the plot move towards its climax(高潮), the Emperor calls for a plentiful royal banquet, where each will seek the end of their enemies.
The Banquet differs from Hamlet in that it does not focus on the prince, but examines the feelings of each character. According to director Feng Xiaogang: "If Hamlet is about a prince who must make a choice involving life and death, then The Banquet is about how each character must face a choice of life or death... All are motivated by desire, but as soon as they have begun their plans must grow more extreme, and they move step-by-step towards the abyss(深淵)... They do not intend evil, but turn to it out of self-preservation and ever-growing ambition（野心）."

A. She is just the wife of the new Emperor.

A. The Banquet is about royal conflicts.    
B. The Banquet’s characters are full of desire.

Everyone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behavior, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.
If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don't like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive（不坦率的）person. You worry a lot and you're always easily upset. You're very stubborn（頑固的）, but you aren't very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.
If you sleep curled up（卷曲）, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you're often defensive. You're shy and you don't normally like meeting people．You prefer to be on your own. You're easily hurt.
If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.
小題1: According to the writer，you naturally show your secret and real personality _________.
A．only in a normal night
B．only when you go to sleep
C．only when you refuse to show yourself to the world
D．only when you change sleeping position
小題2: Which is NOT mentioned in the second paragraph about a person's personality？
A．He or she is always open with others.
B．He or she always likes new ideas earlier than others.
C．He or she is always easily upset.
D．He or she tends to believe in others.
小題3: Maybe you don't want to make friends with a person who sleeps curled up. Why？
A．He or she would rather be alone than communicate with you.
B．He or she is rarely ready to help you.
C．He or she prefers staying at home to going out.
D．He or she wouldn't like to get help from you.
小題4:It appears that the writer tends to think highly of the person who sleeps on one side because __________.
A．he or she always shows sympathy for people
B．he or she is confident，but not stubborn
C．he or she has more strengths than weaknesses
D．he or she often considers annoying people
