‎ 小卷速测(五) 完形填空+阅读理解C+回答问题 ‎ ‎(限时:20分钟)‎ Ⅰ. 完形填空 ‎  Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to make money in order to pay for my brother’s education and mine. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. My father has a bad temper. It’s easy for him to lose his temper.‎ One day, my mother was sewing a quilt (被子). I  1  sat down beside her and looked at her. “Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. My mother stopped her work and raised her head with  2  in her eyes. She didn’t answer my question immediately. Then she 3  her head and continued to sew the quilt. I was afraid that I had hurt her feelings. ‎ I felt so embarrassed that I didn’t know what to do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words: “Look at this thread (线). Sometimes it  4 , but most of the time, it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be  5  anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there.” ‎ I listened carefully but I couldn’t  6  until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. After they were back from the hospital, my mother  7  him to walk slowly on the beautiful country road every morning. My father had never been so gentle. But after two months he still couldn’t walk by himself. All of us were worried about him. “Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day. ‎ ‎“Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said gently.“To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.‎ Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this  8 , I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm. ‎ ‎(  )1.A.quickly B.silently C.carelessly D.directly ‎(  )2.A.light B.tears C.surprise D.anger ‎(  )3.A.bowed B.raised C.nodded D.shook ‎(  )4.A.hides B.appears C.links D.reaches ‎(  )5.A.touched B.felt C.seen D.heard ‎(  )6.A.answer B.wait C.promise D.understand 6‎ ‎(  )7.A.asked B.helped C.told D.ordered ‎(  )8.A.suggestion B.thought C.experience D.action Ⅱ. 阅读理解 Discover Sharks Sharks have lived in the oceans for over 450 million years, long before dinosaurs appeared. There are now about 360 kinds of sharks, whose size, behavior, and other characteristics differ widely.‎ Every year, people catch and kill over 100 million sharks. They hunt sharks for sport, food, medicine and their skin. Experts say the international market for some kinds of sharks has increased because many parts of a shark are valuable. Collectors pay thousands of dollars for the jaws of a shark. Shark liver oil is a popular source of vitamin A. The skin of a shark can be used like leather. In Asia, people enjoy a kind of soup made from shark fins.‎ It takes most kinds of sharks 10 to 15 years to begin reproducing(繁殖) and most sharks reproduce only every two years. And they give birth to fewer than ten young sharks. For this reason, over-fishing of sharks is the special danger to the future of the animal.‎ Influenced by movies and popular novels, most people see sharks as people-eating monsters. This is far from the truth. Every year, a few types of shark injure about 100 people worldwide and kill about 25. Most attacks are by great white sharks, which often feed on sea mammals, just like sea lions, sea dogs and dolphins. They sometimes mistake human swimmers for their food, especially if they are wearing black wetsuits.‎ If you are a typical ocean-goer, your chances of being killed by a shark are about 1 in 100 million. You are more likely to be killed by a pig than a shark and thousands of times more likely to get killed when you drive a car.‎ According to the studies, most sharks can live 20 to 30 years. Although sharks cannot live as long as human beings, they have the similar aging process. Sharks help save human lives. They are helping us learn how to fight cancer and other diseases. Their highly effective immune(免疫的) system allows wounds to get better and their blood is being studied in connection with AIDS research.  ‎ Sharks are needed in the world’s ocean ecosystems(生态系统). Although they don’t need us, we need them. We are much more dangerous to sharks than they are to us. For every shark that bites a person, we kill one million sharks.‎ ‎9.The second paragraph is mainly about     .

They may have small talk at parties, while waiting in line at the store, at family events or work. It’s a way to say hi and express friendliness.‎ ‎  Small talk is very useful. It can avoid uncomfortable silences and build stronger relationships. For example, when you first meet someone or talk to someone you don’t know well, you can break the ice by making small talk. Small talk with a colleague(同事) about his child may help you to understand more of his life outside the office.‎ ‎  In 2013, researchers from the University of Essex asked some people to make small talk in a study. They found small talk can make people happier. People who talked briefly (短暂地) with a waiter in a coffee shop felt happier than those who simply went in, ordered and left.‎ ‎  However, some people are not good at small talk. Here are some tips to improve your small-talking ability.‎ ‎  Firstly, find common ground. When you have something similar with your speaking partner, that ‎ 6‎ means you have something to talk about.‎ ‎  Secondly, ask open-ended questions. They are suitable(合适的) for small talk. For example, if you ask visitors whether they like your city, they may simply say “Yes.” But if you ask “What do you think of our city?” They will have more freedom in how they answer.‎ Thirdly, become a student. Nobody knows everything. So, as someone is answering one of your open-ended questions, they bring up something about which you know nothing. So, tell them! This lets the other person become the teacher. They feel good about sharing their knowledge and you get to learn something. It’s a win-win situation.‎ ‎  Finally, practice makes perfect. Like anything, getting good at making small talk takes practice.‎ ‎  If you make small talk in your native language, you might become happier. If you are making small talk using English, you will most surely improve your speaking and listening skills.‎ ‎12.Do Americans often have small talk?‎ ‎  ‎ ‎13.Why is small talk useful?‎ ‎  ‎ ‎14.What did some researchers from the University of Essex find in 2013?‎ ‎  ‎ ‎15.What kind of questions are suitable for small talk?‎ ‎  ‎ ‎16.What does the writer tell us about small talk in the passage?‎ ‎  ‎ 6‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ Ⅰ.[主旨大意] 本文是一篇记叙文。作者有时会怀疑她的父母之间是否有爱情,因为他们每天都忙着为了支付她和她哥哥的教育费用而赚钱。后来从父亲生病的经历中,作者明白了爱就像是藏在被子里的线,使生活变得坚固而温暖。‎ ‎1.B 考查副词辨析。根据下文“‘Is there love between you and Dad? ’ I asked her in a very low voice.”可推知,作者应是安静地坐在母亲旁边。故选B。 ‎ ‎2.C 考查名词辨析。根据语境可知,母亲对女儿突如其来的问题感到惊讶,停止了手里的活。surprise意为“惊讶”。故选C。‎ ‎3.A 考查动词辨析。根据上文“She didn’t answer my question immediately.”可推知,母亲没有立刻回答作者的问题,而是低头继续干活。故选A。 ‎ ‎4.B 考查动词辨析。根据下文“…but most of the time, it disappears in the quilt.”可推知,线有时出来,但大多都是隐藏在被子里的。故选B。 ‎ ‎5.C 考查动词辨析。根据上句“If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread.”可知,作者的妈妈把爱比作线,隐藏在被子里,几乎看不见,但确实存在。故选C。 ‎ ‎6.D 考查动词辨析。根据下文“But from this  8 , I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life.”可知,作者当时并没理解母亲说的话。故选D。  ‎ ‎7.B 考查动词辨析。根据下文“To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.”可知,母亲帮助(搀扶)着父亲慢慢走。故选B。 ‎ ‎8.C 考查名词辨析。根据语境可知,作者通过父亲生病的这次经历,明白了爱就像藏在被子里的线,是内在的,会让生活变得坚固而温暖。experience意为“经历”。故选C。‎ Ⅱ.9.A 10.B 11.C Ⅲ.12.Yes./Yes, they do.‎ 6‎ ‎13.Because it can avoid uncomfortable silences and build stronger relationships.‎ ‎14.Small talk can make people happier.‎ ‎15.Open-ended questions.‎ ‎16.What small talk is, the benefits of it and how to improve small-talking ability.‎ 6‎
