這是一篇夾敘夾議的文章。為保證旅行既有趣又安全,約翰四處搜集建議和信息。盡管大家都說自己知曉到達(dá)目的地的唯一途徑,但沒人能提供全面的答案,約翰終于意識(shí)到只有自己去探索才能發(fā)現(xiàn)答案。

1. B第一段講約翰想去一個(gè)很遠(yuǎn)的地方旅行,與之銜接的應(yīng)該是"希望這段旅程令人興奮"。

.2. C約翰希望這次旅行能遇到意思,還希望能有美麗的風(fēng)景,友好的人們和美味的食物。3. A 約翰想要避免一切危險(xiǎn),也不想迷路。

get lost"迷路,走失"。

4. B約翰意識(shí)到這趟旅程需要仔細(xì)考慮,并決定征求他人的建議。

demand主語為人時(shí)表示"堅(jiān)決要求",主語為物時(shí)表示"迫切需要";request意為"懇請(qǐng),請(qǐng)求"。這里應(yīng)該選demand,表示"需要"。

5. D根據(jù)下文約翰向朋友、姑媽等人征求建議可知應(yīng)選advice0

6. C從下文朋友及姑媽的建議內(nèi)容來看,此處約翰是想詢問到達(dá)目的地的"最佳"方式是什么。

7. A這個(gè)目的地不能通過陸路到達(dá),只能走水路。

available "可利用的,有效的";difficult "困難的";broad"寬闊的";dangerous "危險(xiǎn)的"。通過后半句"只能乘船去"可知陸路是"不可行"的。

8. A從后文姑媽建議的來看,約翰應(yīng)該是與姑媽討論了旅行的事。talk about"談?wù),討?; set about"開始,著手";get through"通過(審査或考試) ;接通(電話) ";break through"突破,突圍"。

9. C姑媽認(rèn)為水路非常危險(xiǎn)。她有幾個(gè)朋友坐船去,結(jié)果都沒有回來。這從后文姑媽勸約翰放棄這次旅行就能看出。

10. C參見第9題解析。

11. B姑媽讓約翰忘記旅行計(jì)劃,攢更多的錢享受生活。

12. A聯(lián)系上下文,不一樣的答案讓約翰感到"困惑",所以他又去求助從前的地理老師。

13. D前文說約翰給地理老師寫信,故老師應(yīng)該是把地圖和旅行指南郵寄給他。

14. D參見13題解析。老師通過來信給他提供了包括復(fù)雜圖表在內(nèi)的相關(guān)資料。這里present作"給,贈(zèng)送"之意。

15. C約翰相信有了更多的證據(jù)和信息,就能夠發(fā)現(xiàn)解決他所有問題的答案。

invent"發(fā)明,創(chuàng)造";handle "處理";create "創(chuàng)造,引起,造成"。

discover"發(fā)現(xiàn),發(fā)覺",符合語境。

16. A聯(lián)系上文,約翰繼續(xù)不斷地搜集信息。

17. B前文提到不斷收集信息,后文說找到通往目的地的最佳路徑,可推測(cè)中間所缺的環(huán)節(jié)是對(duì)信息的整理或分析。

18. C盡管人人都稱自己知道最佳路線,但是沒有一個(gè)人能提供全面答案,空缺處應(yīng)填一個(gè)表示轉(zhuǎn)折的連詞。

19. A have / know all the answer "(自以為) 全懂",是固定搭配。

20. B尋找真理的唯一途徑是自己踏上旅程,自己去探索和發(fā)現(xiàn)。

 After a boy had unwrapped his gifts on Christmas morning,his mother asked him which present he wanted to donate.

The boy eventually agreed to part with (舍棄) one of his gifts. He put his four gifts in front of him and tried to decide which one to part with.

 As the summer time approaches,more and more commercials and advertisements can be seen on the mass media encouraging students to join English study tours abroad. The purpose of these tours is to provide students with an opportunity to learn English in a native speaking environment and use English in real situations. Parents always believe that their children will automatically speak good English after attending these study tours. However,for me,as an English major and former participant of many English study tours,I find these summer tours ineffective.

  Parents who send their children abroad for a summer to study English usually believe that the native speaking environment,including the courses,teachers,and host families,can help their children to learn English better. This might be true if the students really study hard and they really get an all-English environment. But the fact is that,most of the time,the tour part is more important than the study part.     Although these tours take place in foreign countries,students are rarely exposed in an all-English environment. You will find that,in the morning classes,Taiwanese students would like to stick together and speak Chinese with each other,even though there are some students from other countries. In the afternoon,the students go on a sightseeing excursion with their companions from Taiwan; they speak Chinese,of course. In the evening,when students return to the host families,they would stay in their room and share the day with their roommate,another Taiwanese student. People who speak the same language with you are like a log in the ocean when living in a foreign country where you can not express your?self well,so that you would naturally stick with them. This is especially true with children. An?other unrealistic expectation parents have for these tours is that the experience of living abroad can make their children more independent and mature. However,maturity does not come over?night. It takes time and practice. The most important of all is that they need a good mentor. None of these exist in the study tours.

(   ) 1. What's the author's attitude towards the English study tours abroad?

   A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Negative. D. Neutral.

(   ) 2. Which of the following is the most important thing for children who study in an Eng?lish environment according to the writer?

   A. Host families. B. Hard work. C. Courses. D. Teachers.

(   ) 3. Why are students rarely exposed in an all-English environment?

   A. The study tour itself makes it less important for students to expose themselves in an all-English environment.

   B. Staying with the students from the same country makes study easy abroad.

   C. They only want to stay with their English teachers.

   D. They are not sure about their spoken English.

(   ) 4. What makes parents send their children to join English study tours abroad according to the text?

   A. Parents' misunderstanding to the ads.

   B. Parents' lack of information.

   C. Parents' unrealistic expectation.

   D. Parents' social experience.

 In white shirt,blue pants,black cloth shoes and two pigtails,Jingqiu gives off an air of great "pure beauty" in Zhang Yimou's new movie Under the Hawthorn Tree.

  The film tells the story of the sad romance of Jingqiu and a handsome young man named Laosan. Set at the end of the "cultural revolution" (1966-1976) ,the pair managed to fall in love although they came from different political environments.

  Before it was released,moviegoers speculated on just what this "pure beauty" could be. Director Zhang complained of how long it had taken him to find the right girl for the part of Jingqiu―a character so innocent that she believed simply lying on the same bed with a man would make her pregnant.

  It was 18-year-old Zhou Dongyu who stood out from the crowd. According to Zhang,Zhou had "eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside". Born of an ordinary worker's family,the Shijiazhuang girl was in her final year of high school and working hard for a place in an art college.

  While some teenagers consider such " pure beauty" illusory,others believe that it speaks of something soulful.

  Purity is all about the innocence that shines through from within,thinks 16-year-old Tan Mengxi of Nanjing.

  "Being pure can be simple,not having complicated thoughts and being inexperienced. However,it doesn't mean an ignorant or naive person. So,a person is pure in his or her nature if he or she is always enthusiastic and able to deal with difficult matters independently. This purity doesn't pass with time," she said. 

(   ) 5. What image does Jingqiu give to audiences in the movie Under the Hawthorn Tree"!

   A. A simple girl. B. A pure girl.

   C. A romantic girl. D. A silent girl.

(   ) 6. What kind of girls looks pure according to the passage?

   A. A girl in white shirt,blue pants,black cloth shoes and two pigtails.

   B. A girl has eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside.

   C. A girl who was born into an ordinary worker's family.

   D. A girl wears accessories and makeup.

(   ) 7. What's the opinion of Tan Mengxi about purity?

   A. It is of whether someone is ignorant or naive.

   B. Being pure can be simple,not having complicated thoughts and being inexperi?enced.

   C. It is of whether someone is always enthusiastic.

   D. Purity is a matter of internal quality and doesn't pass with time.

(   ) 8. Which do you think is the best title for the passage?

   A. What Makes a Pure Girl?

   B. A Debate on the Movie Under the Hawthorn Tree

   C. Opinions on the Character Jingqiu

   D. It's Hard to Find the Character Jingqiu
