试题分析:本篇是一则童话故事,叙述了一只老虎和一只狮子的故事。老虎和狮子同住一块岩石下,他们相互认识时由于年龄太小而不知道狮子和老虎之间的区别。所以他们并不认为他们之间的友谊有什么非同寻常。有一次老虎和狮子为了一件无所谓的事情进行了争吵,争吵愈演愈烈,甚至到了互相辱骂的程度。担心他们之间友谊会出问题,他们决定带着所争论的问题去请教博学睿智的森林和尚。在和尚的充满智慧的答复下,老虎和狮子又重归于好。故事告诉我们:不要因为小事而伤了朋友之间的友谊。
小题1:D 原词重现,下文有“lion”提示。不是“狐狸、鸡子或猴子”。
小题2:C 根据常识推断“因为年纪小,即太年轻而不知道”。 weak软弱;unforgettable难忘的;poor
贫穷;。
小题3:A 原词重现。下文“Fearing for their friendship, they decided to go to ask the learned forest  ,”有提示。上下文意思是说“他们是太年轻了,以致于不知道狮子和老虎之间的区别。所以他们不认为他们的友谊是在所有中不寻常的。”故排除B项。relation关系;connection联系。
小题4:B上下文存在因果关系。这部分山区的安宁可能受住在附近的一位温和的和尚的影响的缘故。in turn反过来;according to根据;as to至于。
小题5:A live居住;survive生存;walk步行,走;move迁移。根据上下文分析“和尚”应该是“居住在附近”。
小题6:A原词重现,下文“The argument got stronger and stronger”有提示。不知什么原因,有一天,两个朋友陷入了愚蠢的争吵。decision决定;activity活动;conference会议。
小题7:C原词复现,与下题互为提示。happen发生;bear忍受;seem似乎。
小题8:B原词复现,与上题互为提示。Clean清洁,清楚;cool凉爽,酷;good好的。
小题9:D原词重现,上文“Everyone knows the cold  when the moon wanes from full to new!”有提示。狮子跟老虎所说的正好相反。wonderful精彩的;fresh新鲜的;delicious可口的。
小题10:C上文说“争论越来越激烈”说明“谁也不服谁”。solve解决;compete与……竞争,比赛;convince说服,使信服;remind提醒。
小题11:B既然“谁也不服谁”说明他们对争论的问题“没有得出结论not reach any conclusion”。arrive到;cause引起,paint绘画。
小题12:D老虎跟狮子争吵得不可开交,“甚至(even)到了互相辱骂的程度”。far 远远地;ever曾经;              yet还,也,仍。
小题13:A 原词重现,上文“possibly  the influence of a gentle forest monk who lived nearby.” 有提示。Monk和尚;teacher老师;mother母亲;parent父亲或母亲。
小题14:C “hermit”是“隐士”的意思。根据常识用来形容“隐士”的最佳词汇是“peaceful(安静的)”。Kind友善的;different不同的;rich富有的。
小题15:A 对应上文“the lion and tiger bowed respectfully and put their question to him.”这儿应该用“answer(回答)”。speech演讲;comment评论,注释,意见,说明;remark评论,谈论。
小题16:C 老虎与狮子争论的问题是围绕“cold”和“moon”展开的。所以答案为C项。sun太阳;weather天气;day白天。
小题17:A  whether...or无论是……还是;until直到;if 如果;when当……时候。
小题18:C 根据上文“Therefore, in a way, you are both right(从某种程度上说,你们俩谁都没有错)”说“谁被谁打败了(defeated)”的问题。reward酬谢,奖赏,报答;win赢;award授予,奖给。
小题19:B 根据下文“Unity is best by all means”的提示应该选“united(团结的)”。moved移动的,迁移的;interested感兴趣的;amused有趣的,好玩的。

As a high school athletics coach, I gave a speech about football to students and parents, aiming at getting new team members :I talked  about how"everyone  can benefit from football. This year, a worried-looking couple approached me. Their son, who had a sickly childhood, really wanted to play football. They'd tried to talk him out of it, but he had his heart set on joining the team.
When they told me his name , my heart sank. Michael was short and thin. He was a lonely kid and the constant target of other kids' jokes. I knew Michael would never make it. But so close to my  "football is for everyone"  speech,  I told them we could give it a try.
On the opening day of practice, Michael was the first player on the field. We started a one-mile jog around the track. Repeatedly he fell, each time picking himself up. The same thing happened for weeks. But Michael put his whole heart into the training. Cradually, Michael gained strength both socially and physically. He began to laugh and most of the teammates became friendly. By the last week of practice Michael could run the mile without falling. He asked me to add a few more exercises he could work on his own. Soon ,  Michael ran the opening mile faster than anyone.
One day after practice, the team captain, Steve, came up to me. He was talented but lazy.He was popular with students even though he could be heartless. Steve pointed to the field where Michael was jogging all alone and asked me why he was still out there. I told Steve to ask him. The next night, I was surprised to see Steve exercising right next to Michael.
Finally our big game came-at first we were losing by twelve points. I could see that some kids  had already lost heart. But Michael was playing as hard as he could ,  begging the team to keep trying. Finally we won the game by one point in the final ten seconds.
At our celebration dinner, we always gave a big award to the most productive player. Steve had scored the most points that season,  and everyone cheered as he received his award. " There's someone who deserves it more than I do,"  Steve said,  " Everything I accomplished,  and everything the team accomplished this season, is thanks to one person-Michael.

One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts ,it came without wrap(包装). On September 11, 1958, mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap(大腿), saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it is .” What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it over and over how much I loved it!
One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days, I heard mum and dad whispering such words as “hopeless”, “pitiful”,and “dying”, which sounded ominous.
“Christmas was coming, don’t expect any presents this year ”Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. I’d never seen him cry before.
The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say.” What? he’s all right?” he hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we could bring Richard home! ”
“Thank god!” I heard Mum cry.
From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty: they were filled with love!

One day, when I was in college, a dishonest-looking character approached me in the student union with a leather jacket he wanted to sell. It was a beauty: buttery smooth cowskin, with artfully sewed lines and long leather fringes (穗).
I can’t remember what the price was, but it was apparently too little for such a jacket. Even as I paid the money that day, I knew something wasn’t right. Surely, a couple of days later, the jacket’s real owner, a student about my age came to me as I was on my way to class.
“That’s my jacket,” he said, “and I want it back.”
“No way,” I answered. “I paid for it, and I have no idea if it’s yours. It’s mine.”
He didn’t challenge me, and I left, but the uneasiness(不安) I had about my new possession now had a visible face. A few days later, riding my bike across campus, I saw the real owner standing on the sidewalk. I rode over, took the jacket off, handed it to him said I was sorry, and rode off without another word. More than the weight of the jacket had been lifted from my shoulders.
We’re all human, which means that sometimes we do things we shouldn’t do or say things we shouldn’t say. Sometimes we realize too late that our actions have been hurtful to somebody else. When these hard times occur, the best response --- the only response, really --- is, “I’m sorry.”
Admitting a wrongdoing, as soon as possible and frankly, helps the other person begin to heal. But just as important, it cleans up our own soul and sets us free.
That is a small price to pay for a clear conscience.
小题1:The author bought the leather jacket from the man in the student union because ______   .
A.it was charged at a reasonable price
B.it was a very attractive jacket
C.he was in great need of clothing
D.he was happy to find such a bargain
小题2:The phrase “had a visible face” in the passage probably implies(暗含) “______  ”.
A.started to bother me badly
B.might be clearly expressed
C.began to give me away openly
D.could be instantly melting away
小题3:Giving the leather jacket back to the real owner, the author ______    .
A.offered his forgivenessB.felt very much relieved
C.rode away unwillinglyD.realized his wrongdoing
小题4:What is the author’s purpose of this writing?
A.To encourage the readers to admit errors honestly.
B.To show the readers the reality of his college life.
C.To give the readers a lesson on how to say sorry to others.
D.To tell the readers a story that once happened at college.

He works for a small firm in Liverpool, where most young people of his age are finding jobs. David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money. Though he has high payment, he cannot drive a car, or get credit card(信用卡).
David got his job four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels(普通成绩)and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,” he said.
