试题分析:这篇短文讲述的是在一个大雾天,Smith先生要去开一个很重要的会。在这样的天气里,人们很容易迷路。幸运的是,Smith先生得到了一个陌生人的帮助。这个人在茫茫大雾中没有费什么力气就找到了Smith先生要去的地方,原来他是一个盲人。
小题1:词义猜测题。根据划线短语所在的句子以及上下文的意思可知,在一个雾很大的一天,Smith先生要去开一个很重要的会议,He tried to walk there but found he was quite lost. Suddenly he bumped into a
stranger.他走路去那里,但是发现自己迷路了。这时他碰到了一个陌生人。故bump into在这里的意思应该是偶然碰到。故选B。
小题2:推理判断题。根据短文中Buses, cars and taxis were not able to run and were standing by the side of the
road.可知,在雾大的天气里,开车是很危险的,故B这个句子是正确的;根据People were trying to find their way about on foot but were losing their way in the fog.可知,在大雾中,人们很容易迷路,故C这个句子也是正确的;根据The fog was getting thicker every minute可知,雾变得越来越大了,故D这个句子也是正确的。而根据故事的结尾我们知道,这个帮助Smith先生的陌生人是一个盲人,因此A不对。故选A。
小题3:推理判断题。根据故事的大意我们可以知道,这个陌生人在茫茫大雾里好像没有费什么事,就帮助Smith先生找到了他要去的地方,因为他是一个盲人,他不是通过眼睛来看路,而是通过自己的心。故应该选D。
小题4:主旨大意题。这篇短文讲述的是在一个大雾天,Smith先生要去开一个很重要的会。在这样的天气里,人们很容易迷路。幸运的是,Smith先生得到了一个陌生人的帮助。原来这个人是一个盲人,这种天气对他来说没有什么影响。故C选项在一个雾天一个盲人帮助Smith领路最符合文意。故选C 。

I stood there listening to my father shout at top of his voice. The look on his face said that one of us had done something wrong.
“Which one of you did this?”
We all looked down at the step. There was child’s handwriting in chalk there. I was very frightened. I hope no one could see it. Would he guess it was me? I was so scared. When he asked me, I lied, “Not me, dad.” The other denied(否认) it as well. Of course, we all knew that one of us must have done it. But as the youngest and smallest of the three, I just couldn’t find courage to tell the truth.
To find out who had written on the step, Father gave us each a piece of paper and a pencil. “I want each of you to write exactly what you see on the step.” I tried my best to write the words differently. I didn’t want dad to be able to tell it was me.
He gathered up our paper and looked at them. “Since none of you will say yes, then I will punish you all.” I stood there and said nothing. The last thing I wanted was for Dad to punish me!
“I did it.” My sister walked forward and said she had done something she hadn’t. she was punished for a month.
We didn’t talk about that day for many years. Not until we were all older and I knew it was safe to finally tell my dad it was really me. I always felt sorry because of it. That was the last time I let anyone take the blame for me. I told myself, “One must see to what he or she has done.”

With only fish and birds for company, Eric Erden has been rowing across the Pacific Ocean to Australia in his 23-foot-long boat since he left California on July 10, 2009.
But crossing the Pacific is only part of his incredible journey. Eric has decided to go all the way around the world using only his own energy. He will row, bike, and walk without help from any motors at all. Oh, and his plan includes climbing the tallest peak on six of the continents along the way, to honour the memory of a fellow climber.
He says he is doing this to show kids that they can achieve any goal, but he hopes to have some great adventures along the way.
As a solo traveller, Eric has already faced disappointments and challenges. Because he has to row about ten hours a day, he brought along an MP3 player to listen to music and pass the time. Unfortunately, the nearly daily tropical rain for several months has forced him to keep his player packed away where it's safe and dry.
Storms and huge wave wind regularly force him in the wrong direction and even threaten to overturn his boat. “Sometimes I really feel scared,” says a somewhat embarrassed Eric. “But that’s all part of the journey. I knew this wouldn’t be easy when I started. That's why I gave myself two years to finish.”
Protein bars(蛋白棒) give him energy, and he boils water to heat freeze-dried meals on a one-burner stove. A solar-powered machine removes salt from ocean water so he can drink it, but only when the sun shines. When that fails he sometimes tries to collect rainwater in buckets.
He’s not bothered by any of the hardships. Eric sees the world as a laboratory where there is much to learn. And when his trip around the world takes him across land, he enjoys meeting people - especially children. He has already visited several schools and shared his story.
小题1:Why is Eric making this trip?
A.To encourage children to reach for their goal.
B.To learn more about the world around us.
C.To have many great adventures in strange lands.
D.To honour the memory of a fellow climber.
小题2:What does Eric plan to do on each of the six continents he will visit?
A.Visit schools to share his story.
B.Study the culture of the local people.
C.Climb the tallest mountain.
D.Cycle from one end to the other.
小题3:When does Eric expect to finish his journey?
A.July 2009.B.June 2010.
C.January 2011.D.July 2011.
小题4:Which of the following words best describes Eric’s character?
A.Determined.B.Intelligent.
C.Fearless.D.Lonely.

阅读下面短文,根据其内容完成后面各项任务
In the Charles E. Johnson Elementary School in New York, there is a special radio. It gives people warnings(警报)about bad weather.
One day, there came a sound from the radio. This sound brought the piece of news:a heavy storm was coming. William Tom, principal(校长)of the school, asked teachers to bring children indoors and put them in a safe place at once.
Minutes later, the storm came. However, because of the warning of the radio and the quick work of the principal, no one was hurt.
“The radio really did work very well.             (我们对它的工作感到很高兴),”William Tom said. “The parents were as well.”
The U.S. government hopes there will be more such success stories. It plans to give this kind of radios to all 97,000 public schools in the country.
Every year, more than 10,000 big thunderstorms, 2,500 floods, 1,000 tornadoes(龙卷风)and some hurricanes(飓风)take place in the U.S., so the warning radios are very useful. They not only give people warnings about bad weather, but also give warnings about other dangerous things.请根据短文内容,简要回答下列问题.
小题1:What does the special radio give people?
                                          
小题2:Why was no one hurt in the school in the storm?
                                          
小题3:请根据短文中所给汉语完成句子。
