59.在文中A处横线上填入两个合适的单词:the other
60.写出文中B处画线部分的同义句:
But the boy refused to clean it ifhewasn't paid two pounds for his work.

分析 一个在街上擦鞋的男孩对一个路过的年轻人说:"先生,让我擦擦你的鞋子吧.这只要两便士."但年轻人拒绝了.然后,这个男孩告诉年轻人他可以免费擦鞋.年轻人同意了,于是很快他其中一只鞋子就干净得闪闪发亮了.年轻人接着将另一只鞋子给这个男孩,(想让男孩继续刷鞋)但男孩要求他给两英镑才能为他擦鞋.年轻人不同意就离开了.然而,那只擦得干干净净的鞋子让另一只脏鞋显得更脏了,年轻人根本无法继续行走.他折回后付给男孩两英镑.不一会儿,另一只鞋子也干净得闪闪发亮了.

解答 56.A 细节理解题 根据首段第一句话A boy who was cleaning shoes in the street said to a young man passing by,"Let me clean your shoes."一个正在街上擦鞋的男孩对一个路过的年轻人说:"让我擦你的鞋子."可知这个小男孩是一个擦鞋的.故选A
57.C 细节理解题 根据第二段首句Then the boy told him that he would clean his shoes for nothing.然后男孩告诉他,他将免费清洗他的鞋.可知这个年轻人之所以同意让小男孩擦鞋,是因为小男孩不要钱.故选C
58.C 推理判断题. 根据第二段后面的句子The young man refused to pay anything and went away.But the dirty one looked so bad that he couldn't walk away.He had to turn back and gave the boy two pounds.年轻人不肯付任何东西就走了,但是那只脏兮兮的鞋看上去很不好,所以他不能走开,他只好转身给那男孩两英镑.可知小男孩之所以一开始免费给这个年轻人擦一只鞋,是想吊起他的胃口,一只鞋干净另一只鞋脏是很难看的,所以这个年轻人最后一定会让小男孩擦另一只鞋,从而付给小男孩擦鞋的钱,结合You may pay me only a pound,原来要一英镑,结果最后年轻人给了他两英镑,也就是C项说的想从年轻人那里得到更多的钱,从而足以看出小男孩的聪明.故选C
59.the other 完成句子题.根据前句and soon one of his shoes was shining brightly很快他的一只鞋闪闪发光,联系本句The man give(A)        shoe to the boy,因为鞋有两只,所以此处应是指把另一只鞋给小男孩,叫他也擦一下,从而构成固定短语one…the other(两者中的)一个,另一个.故填:the other
60.if;wasn't 同义句转换题.根据原句But the boy refused to clean it unless he was paid two pounds for his work但男孩拒绝擦它,除非他为他的工作支付两英镑;这是一个由unless引导的条件状语从句,除非…,相当于if…not,如果不…,所以此句也可表达为:如果他不支付两英镑的工作,男孩就不肯擦它,所以第一个空填if;第二个空由于原句为一般过去时的被动语态,所以此处was后直接加not即可,缩写为wasn't.故填:if;wasn't

点评 做题时要在理解好文意的基础上,与题目有机的结合,从文章中找到相关细节性的句子与选项细细比对,进行选择或推理判断,选出符合文章内容的正确选项.做题注意灵活,有时可采用排除法或直选法确定出最终答案.

6. The bank of England is making plans to introduce plastic banknotes to the UK.
Paper notes,meaning pieces of paper money,have been used in England for more than 300 years,but replacing them with plastic ones could be better.
  Plastic notes were first introduced to Australia back in 1988.Since then other countries,including Romania,Vietnam,Mexico and Malaysia,have also begun using money made in this way.
  Fans of water sports,such as surfing,find this type of money more useful and easier,as they can take it with them in the water and won't worry that it will fall apart.It is also good for people who by mistake put clothes in the washing machine with a note in the pocket!
  It is more hygienic (clean and free of bacteria) than paper money as it absorbs less bacteria(the simplest and smallest form of plants,some of which cause disease).And it is stronger.This means it lasts longer.According to a survey,a usual 5 note in the UK lasts around six months,while the $5 Australian bill lasts for an average of 40 months.
  A downside of plastic cash is that it costs more money to produce.Cash and money-counting machines will also have to be adapted to accept the new money.
  It is expected that the Bank of England,who hopes to start printing plastic notes from 2015,will introduce the money slowly,using the most common notes first.
42.Which country was the first to use plastic notes?D
A.The UK.
B.Romania.
C.Vietnam.
D.Australia.
43.You can put the sentence"Besides being waterproof,there are other good effects of using plastic notes instead of paper ones."at the beginning ofC.
A.Paragraph 3     
B.Paragraph 4        
C.Paragraph 5       
D.Paragraph 6
44.What can you infer (推断) from Paragraph 6?B
A.Plastic notes should be printed in cash machines.
B.There are some disadvantages of using plastic notes.
C.Every country will have to accept the new money.
D.Plastic notes should be produced by the cashiers.
45.Which is NOT the reason why the UK wants to use plastic notes instead of paper ones?A
A.They take up less space.
B.They are stronger.
C.They don't let water through.
D.They are more hygienic.

16.You either have it,or you don't---a sense of direction,that is.But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map,while others can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we're all born with a sense of direction,(80)C it is not properly understood how it works.One idea is that people with a good sense of direction have worked hard at developing it.Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don't use it,we lose it.
"Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,"says Jim Martland,Research Director of the project."However,if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car,they will (81)A develop the skills."
Jim Martland also says that young people should be taught certain (82)B to improve their sense of direction.He makes the following suggestions:
•If you are using a map,turn it so it helps you to find the way you are facing.
•If you leave your bike in a strange place,put it near (83)D like a big stone or a tree.Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike.When you return,go back along (84)B route.
•Simplify(简化.the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town,streams,or walls in the countryside to guide you.Count your steps (85)C you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.
Now you will never get lost again!

80.A.orB.asC.butD.so
