试题分析:本文讲述了在生日这一天我通过给那些无家可归的人提供衣服的故事告诉我们真正的幸福就是帮助别人。
小题1:A 参见小题2。
小题2:B即使那天是我的生日,我还是感到情绪很低落,很孤独。根据空格后面的and a bit lonesome,可知此空应该填一个消极意义方面的词,排除A、C。scared害怕,不符合语境中的意思。depressed沮丧,低沉。第二空填完后,再将整个句意理解一下,不难发现,前后句有转折关系,因此第一空应该用even though即使。as if好像;now that既然;only if只要。都不合逻辑。
小题3:也许我想念几年前去世的父亲了,在那一天,我只是想要他在我身旁。父亲几年前去世了,而我现在心情不好,不可能是因为失去而应该是因为思念。forget忘记;lose失去;need需要。
小题4:特定的日子里,想念父亲了,希望父亲在身旁,是人之常情。beside 在……旁边。
小题5:由下文I cleaned my cheek up from the tears,可知此处说的是,“我哭了”。
小题6:当我买妈妈需要的维他命时,我擦干了脸上的泪水,努力地笑了笑。order 在饭店等场所用时表示点菜,机场等场所时,表示订票;此时在药店,则应该可以用来表示向药店订购。check核查;fetch去取;drop掉下来。
小题7:向医生订购维他命以后,医生去拿药,我在这等的过程中,向大楼的四处看看,看到了大楼门旁的一个乞丐。look at 看着;look into向里看;look around向四周看;look for寻找。
小题8:从下文的描述,孩子嫌冷,也只能穿着旧的T恤衫,我回去找衣服给对方,可以判断,那是乞丐。performer表演者;actress女演员;policewoman女警。
小题9:孩子身上穿得少,我意识到天已经很冷了,因此,才为他们感到难过。
小题10:讲解见上题。
小题11:我在付钱的时候,再次瞥了他们一眼,开始有了一个想法。从前文我是来药店买药的,可知此处应该是为买的药付钱,因此选D。
小题12:aim目标;activity活动;idea想法;opinion观点。后面讲到作者帮助乞丐,此处说的应该就是这种想法。后面再去行动的。
小题13:从后文look for some of my smaller clothes,可知作者是说,“我为什么不捐些我的衣服呢?”
小题14:那天,我得和某人分享些什么。下文可知他回家找自己的衣服送给对方,这也就是在与对方分享他的东西。
小题15:这件事,是作者自己想要做的事,并且他为自己的这个主意而感到自豪,因此,他在找小衣服时,心情应该是兴奋的。
小题16:到家以后,我告诉妈妈我的经历和想法,妈妈支持我,并帮我寻找衣服。孩子要将衣服送人,当然应该跟父母说一声,因此,此处是孩子在跟妈妈说他刚才看到的以及他的的想法。因此,用C。experience体验,经历。
小题17:从妈妈帮他找衣服这个行动可以看出,妈妈赞同他的做法。disappoint失望;refuse 拒绝;blame责备;support支持。
小题18:衣服找好以后,作者心里急切地想要帮助那对乞丐母子,因此,急急地回到药店那里。hurriedly用在此处能体现作者当时的心情。sadly伤心地;aimlessly漫无目的地;slowly慢慢地。
小题19:我没有亲自将衣服递过去,我不想让孩子知道(是我送的)。从下文的我请别人把衣服递给孩子,可以知道作者的心理。reward报酬;present礼物;prize奖励;secret秘密。四个词比较,可知secret最为恰当。
小题20:从前文I didn't hand the clothing over myself.可以知道此处用over是正确的。hand over递过去;hand up交出;hand out分发,散发;hand down把……传下来。

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One time I arrived in the middle of the night for a pickup at a building that was        except for a single light in a ground floor window. I walked to the door and knocked.
A small woman in her 80’s opened the door. I took her suitcase to the cab then returned to       her into the cab. She thanked me for my kindness. When we got in the taxi, she gave me a(n)     , then asked, “Could you drive through downtown ?”
“It’s not the         way,” I answered.
“Oh, I don’t mind,” she said. “I’m in no hurry. I’m on my way to a hospice (临终关怀医院).”
I looked in the rear view mirror. Her eyes were glistening.
“The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and        the meter (计程器). “What         would you like me to take?” I asked.
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked as an elevator operator. We drove through the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived. Sometimes she’d ask me to       in front of a particular building or corner and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
As the sun was       , she suddenly said: “I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in        to the address she had given me. There were people waiting for her and they put her in a wheelchair.
“How much do I have to pay you?” she asked, reaching into her purse.
“Nothing,” I said.
Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly.
“You gave an old woman a little moment of       ,” she said.
I squeezed her hand, then walked into the dim morning light. Behind me, a door shut.
I didn’t        any more passengers that shift. I drove aimlessly, lost in thought. We tend to think that our lives revolve around great moments. But great moments often   47 us unconsciously.

Regarded as one of the English language’s most gifted poets, John Keats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery, human nature, and philosophy. Although Keats didn’t receive much formal literary education, his own studies and passion brought him much success. Additionally, his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly.
Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower middle-class family, the young John didn’t attend a private school, but went to a public one. His teachers and his family’s friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his father’s death in the early 1800s, followed by his mother’s passing due to tuberculosis (肺结核), he began viewing life differently. He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on.
At around the age of 16, the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, Keats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticized by a magazine. However, the negative response didn’t stop his pursuit of rhythm (韵律).
John Keats’ next work was Endymion, which was published in May 1818. The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy’s hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Engymion, however, he tried something more narrative-based and wrote Isabella. During this time, John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences. He would have to have the “knowledge” associated with his poems. His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned. However, a bout (发作) with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take his life in 1821.
小题1:John Keats’ attitude towards life changed because of _________.
A.his early education from schoolB.the deaths of his parents
C.Edmund Spenser’s poetryD.the criticism of a magazine
小题2:What is the common thing between John Keats and his mother?
A.They read many books.
B.They had a bad childhood
C.They died of the same disease.
D.They showed strong interest in poetry
小题3:What do we know from the passage?
A.Keats received little education at school.
B.Keats once had a chance of becoming a doctor.
C.In 1816 Keats spent two months writing a poem.
D.Endymion was about a real love story.
小题4:While pursuing his dream of becoming a poet at first, John Keats was __________.
A.determinedB.experiencedC.knowledgeableD.impatient
小题5:What can we infer from the passage?
A.Keats’ family must have been very poor when he was young.
B.Edmund Spenser was the greatest poet in Keats’ time.
C.It is likely that Keats rewrote his poem Isabella.
D.The poem Hyperion wasn’t completed by Keats.

I'd been travelling for long hours on a lonely country road when I had a flat tire. So I had to stop and get the tools to       the problem. It certainly wasn’t       doing this with a white shirt and suit on.
Nightfall was approaching. Suddenly a car pulled       from behind me. A man got out and offered to         me. Seeing his unpleasant appearance and tattoos(纹身)on his arm, I became        as thoughts of robberies flashed through my mind. But       I could say anything he had already begun to take the tools to change the       . While watching him I happened to look back at his car and noticed someone sitting in the passenger seat. This had        me. 
Then, without       , it began to rain. He suggested that I wait in his car because my car was unsafe. As the rain increased, getting us wet within seconds, I        agreed. When I settle into the back seat, a woman’s voice came from the front seat. “Are you all right?” She turned around to me. “Yes, I am.’’ I replied with much        when seeing an old woman there. It must be his Mom, I thought. To my      , the old woman was a neighbor of the man who was helping me. “Jeff insisted on stopping when he saw you      with the tire. ”“I am grateful for his help, ” I said. “Me, too!” she said with a smile. He helped drive her to see her husband twice a week in a nursing home. She also said that he       at the church and tutored disadvantaged students. 
The rain stopped and Jeff and I changed the tire. I tried to offer him money and of course he     it. It was shameful that I judged people by the way they       . As we shook hands I began to apologize for my     . He said, ‘‘I experience that same        often. People who look like me don’t do nice things. I        thought about changing the way.

Last year, around Labor Day, I read a “Happy Ad” in our local newspaper. There was a lady in a local nursing home, who was celebrating her 90th birthday and her family wanted everyone to know about it. It said that if you wanted to drop her a line, here was her address. So I did. I found a birthday card and dropped her a short note, wishing her a happy birthday.
A week or so later, someone knocked at my front door. I opened the door and found a middle-aged man standing on my doorstep. He introduced himself as the son of this woman to whom I had sent the card. He explained that he just wanted to drop by in person and thank me for sending such a nice card to his mom. Apparently, like many older folks, she did not receive much mail and was quite excited to receive mine. I just didn’t know what to say. I told him it was my pleasure and that I hoped his mom had enjoyed her birthday.
That year, I did not send out any Christmas cards, except to this lovely old lady in the nursing home. I just told her that I was thinking about her and hoped that she had a nice holiday. I sent her a Valentine and also a couple of notes in between. I just thought she might like to have someone write to her, to get some mail.
She passed away a couple of months ago. I never met this lady, but I did keep her and her family in my thoughts. I dropped them a line of sympathy. I hope that my few little notes were enough to brighten a couple of her days here on earth.
小题1:The old lady’s address was given because ____________.
A.her family wanted to make her well-known.

Two years ago ,Hannah Mighall ,then 13, survived a great white shark attack on Tasmania’s north-east coast, but despite the terrible scars ,the shy yet courageous teenager is determined to get back into the water.
It’s been a long journey back for the brave girl, whose life was changed forever as she was on her surfboard 60 metres offshore at Binalong, Bay ,Tasmania.
