It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, the aged, and children who have lost their parents，but also friends, workmates, relatives and neighbors whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.‎ Over 60 years ago, when a Cleveland man noticed that some people, such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed, too often felt forgotten and neglected, he developed in his mind the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this by giving them small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration, which came to be called “Sweetest Day”.Over time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor, the sick and children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift. Soon the idea spread to other cities all over the USA.‎ Sweetest Day is not based on any single group's religious beliefs or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning.‎ Because for many people remembering takes the form of gift giving, Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care, in a positive way.‎ ‎21．Which of the following has little relationship to Sweetest Day?‎ A．Visiting sick people of the hospital.‎ B．Visiting children who have lost their parents.‎ C．Giving friends small gifts.‎ D．Giving flowers to sweethearts.‎ ‎22．What do most people usually do to show their care to others according to the passage?‎ A．They give money. B．They give gifts. C．They send regards. D．They offer help.‎ ‎23．The underlined word “neglected” in the second paragraph means “________”．‎ A．remembered B．hated C．paid little or no attention to D．disappointed B Good health is the most valuable thing a person can have, but one cannot take good health for granted. It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape: eat right food, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.‎ Proper nutrition (营养) is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of “fuel (燃料)”. Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein, like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruit are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals. However, don't overeat. It is not helpful to be overweight.‎ Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don't get enough sleep, you feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality (性格，个性). Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.‎ Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your lifespan (寿命). Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shape: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.‎ If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise ‎ regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.‎ ‎24．According to the passage, ________．‎ A．we should always keep fit B．if we were healthy, we could spend our days in doing things with less sleep C．one can eat a lot to stay in good shape D．one needn't take any exercise if he is healthy ‎25．In order to keep good health, ________．‎ A．we should eat a lot of sweets B．one needs a large amount of fat C．people should eat according to the foods' nutrition D．we must try to sleep now and then ‎26．Eating more and sleeping less ________．‎ A．can make you keep healthy B．is no good for you C．gets you more energy D．will keep your personality ‎27．According to the passage, the benefits of proper exercise are as follows EXCEPT that ________．‎ A．exercise can help build up the body B．exercise may make you live longer C．exercise may help cure heart diseases D．exercise can bring happiness to people C Books That Shaped ‎America Huckleberry Finn Novelist Ernest Hemingway famously said, “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn ...All American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good ever since.” During their trip down the Mississippi on a raft, Twain describes in a satirical (嘲讽的) and humorous way Huck and Jim's encounters with hypocrisy, racism, violence and other evils of American society. His use in serious literature of a lively and simple American language full of dialect and informal spoken expressions paved the way for many later writers, including Hemingway and William Faulkner.‎ Gone with the Wind The most popular romance novel of all time was the basis for the most popular movie of all time (in today's dollars). Margaret Mitchell's book, Gone with the Wind, ‎ ‎ set in the South during the Civil War, won both the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award, and it remains popular, despite charges that its author had a blind eye regarding the horrors of slavery.‎ Leaves of Grass The publication of the first slim edition of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass in 1855 was the first appearance of a masterpiece that shifted the course of American literary history. Refreshing and bold in both theme and style, the book experienced many revisions during Whitman's lifetime. Over almost 40 years Whitman produced multiple editions of Leaves of Grass, shaping the book into an evertransforming kaleidoscope (千变万化) of poems. By his death in 1892, Leaves of Grass was a thick summary that represented Whitman's view of America over nearly the entire last half of the 19th century. Among the collection's bestknown poems are I Sing the Body Electric, Song of Myself, and O Captain! My Captain! in praise of Abraham Lincoln.‎ The American Woman's Home This classic domestic guide, The American Woman's Home, by sisters Catharine E. Beecher and Harriet Beecher Stowe, is dedicated to “the women of America, in whose hands rest the real fates of the Republic.” It includes chapters on healthful cookery, home decoration, exercise, cleanliness, good air ventilation (通风设备) and heat, etiquette, sewing, gardening and care of children, the sick, the aged and domestic animals. Intended to elevate the “woman's sphere” of household management to a respectable profession based on scientific principles, it became the standard domestic handbook.‎ ‎28．Which of the following best describes Ernest Hemingway's feelings for Mark Twain's book?‎ A．Wonderful. B．Disappointing. C．Painful. D．Confusing.‎ ‎29．What can we learn from Walt Whitman's poems?‎ A．He used many informal oral English in Leaves of Grass.‎ B．Many poems were added to Leaves of Grass after 1855.‎ C．He showed little respect for Abraham Lincoln in his poems.‎ D．The poems reflected Walt Whitman's bad opinions of America.‎ ‎30．In which book can one learn how to live a healthy life?‎ A．Huckleberry Finn. B．Gone with the Wind. C．Leaves of Grass.‎ D．The American Woman's Home.‎ ‎31．What does the underlined word “dedicated” probably mean?‎ A．Devoted. B．Addicted. C．Opposed. D．Sentenced.‎ D Audrey Hepburn (奥黛丽·赫本) won an Academy Award as Best Actress for her first major American movie, Roman Holiday, which was released in 1953. But she is remembered as much for her aid work as for her acting.‎ Born in Belgium in 1929, Audrey's father was British and her mother was Dutch. Audrey was sent to live at a British school for part of her childhood. During World War Ⅱ， she lived and studied in the Netherlands. Her mother thought it would be safe from German attacks. Audrey studied dance as a teenager and during college. But when she returned to London after the war she realized she wasn't going to be a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员). So she began taking acting parts in stage shows. Later she began to get small parts in movies.‎ But it was Audrey Hepburn's move to America in the 1950s that brought her true fame. In 1951 she played the character “Gigi” in the Broadway play of the same name and received great critical praise. Two years later, Roman Holiday made her a star at the age of ‎ Audrey made more than 25 movies. Among her roles, the most popular one was Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's in 1961. Three years later she played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.‎ She was married twice and had one child with each husband. In 1989, the UN Children's Fund named Audrey a goodwill ambassador. She travelled all over the world in support of UNICEF (联合国儿童基金会) projects. The UN agency said she was a tireless worker. She often gave 15 interviews a day to gain money and support for UNICEF projects.‎ Audrey Hepburn often said her loyalty to UNICEF was the result of her experiences as a child during World WarⅡ. She said she knew what it was like to be starving and to be saved by international aid. She was a goodwill ambassador until her death in 1993 from colon cancer.‎ ‎32．The reason why Audrey lived and studied in the Netherlands was that ________.‎ A．she wanted to be a ballerina B．her parents were from ‎Britain C．it was safe there D．the education there was excellent ‎33．We can know from the passage that ________.‎ A．Audrey's parents lived in Germany during World War Ⅱ B．Audrey went to America in the 1950s C．Audrey was made to give up dancing D．the character “Gigi” in the Broadway play was her most popular role ‎34．Which is NOT mentioned in the passage about Audrey Hepburn?‎ A．Marriage.

There has been nothing as good ever since.”可知，海明威认为马克·吐温的《哈克贝利·费恩历险记》是一部空前绝后的好作品，即他对马克·吐温作品的评价非常高。故选A。‎ ‎29答案：B 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，沃尔特·惠特曼在1855年出版了《草叶集》的第一版，此后的40多年，该书不断被修订，内容不断增加，直至1892年沃尔特·惠特曼去世。由此可知，沃尔特·惠特曼的许多诗是在1855年之后被补充到《草叶集》当中的。故选B。‎ ‎30答案：D 细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知，The American Woman's Home是关于家务指导方面的书籍，内容涉及健康的烹饪方法、家庭装饰、锻炼、通风方法、照顾病人等。由此可知，D项符合题意。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎31答案：A 词义猜测题。根据最后一段画线词所在句子中的“the women of America, in whose ...”可知，此处指的是书的读者，由此可猜测，该书是献给美国女士的，画线词的意思与devoted的词义最接近。故选A。‎ ‎32答案：C 细节理解题。根据第二段第四句“Her mother thought it would be safe from German attacks.”可知她母亲认为在荷兰是安全的。‎ ‎33答案：B 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“But it was Audrey Hepburn's move to America in the 1950s that brought her true fame.”可知，她在20世纪50年代去了美国。‎ ‎34答案：D 推理判断题。第五段提到了她的婚姻，文章中也提到了她的身份：一开始跳舞后来成为演员，文章主要讲述她在电影事业和慈善方面的巨大贡献。故选D。‎ ‎35答案：A 细节理解题。奥黛丽·赫本出生在比利时(in 1929)，后来去了英国，二战期间在荷兰上学，上学期间她跳舞，后来她搬到美国演了第一部电影，作为最佳女演员获得奥斯卡金像奖，接着又在《窈窕淑女》里扮演角色，后来(in 1989)又参加慈善活动。故选A。‎ 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在假期时既享受美食又能保持以往的饮食习惯且不增加体重的一些小技巧。‎ ‎36．D 空格前面提到，假期期间我们很可能在各种场合吃得过多，这样就会导致体重上升。D项“研究表明，我们在每年的这个时候都会增长几磅的体重”紧承上文，且引出下文要讨论的问题。‎ ‎37．F 空格前面提到，更小的盘子不仅很快就装满，而且看起来像是装得更多，所以你实际上可能吃得更少，故选F。‎ ‎38．G 本段第二句提到，花一分钟看一下营养标签，量取一份的量这样就可以控制卡路里，并举了爆米花的例子进行说明，由此可推知空格处与爆米花所含的卡路里有关，故G项“一份爆米花大概有4杯，含170卡路里的能量”符合语境。‎ ‎39．A 此处建议我们把主菜分成几部分，空格前面提到，许多餐馆提供的单人餐都远超过一个人实际的饭量，后面就提出几种解决方案，A“与朋友共同分享食物”属于解决方案之一。‎ ‎40．C 此段建议我们不要吃得过饱，所以吃的时候要吃慢点并注意体会饥饿感，故选C。‎ 篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者介绍了自己第一次出国旅行的经历。牛津及莎士比亚的故乡都给作者留下了深刻印象，让作者感到无比兴奋。‎ ‎41答案：D “one's trip to＋某地”意为“某人到某地的旅行”。‎ ‎42答案：A 由所在句可知，这是作者第一次出国旅行，自然感到兴奋(excited)。‎ ‎43答案：B 根据空格后的“such as Oxford”及第三段中的“place”‎ 可知，作者认为有很多有趣的地方(places)。‎ ‎44答案：A 根据空格后的“sides of the streets”及常识可知，道路有两边，故应使用both。‎ ‎45答案：C 由后文可知，基督教堂是牛津的著名景点之一。tourist site“旅游景点”。‎ ‎46答案：A 基督教堂既是牛津的著名景点之一，也是牛津大学的39所学院之一。too “也”需置于句末，故选A。‎ ‎47答案：B 该非限制性定语从句缺少主语，其先行词为“a huge hall”，故从句引导词应指代物，应用which引导该从句。‎ ‎48答案：C 基督教堂里的大礼堂曾在哈利·波特的系列电影(films)里用作魔法学校的餐厅。‎ ‎49答案：D 在前文对牛津作了介绍后，作者对另一个(another)吸引他的地方也进行了介绍。‎ ‎50答案：B impress sb. deeply “给某人留下深刻印象”。deep与deeply均可作副词，但deeply常用于表达抽象意义上的“深”。‎ ‎51答案：B 由后文的“but I'm sure you have heard about”可知前文意为“也许你从未听说过它”。think about “考虑”；hear about “听说”；listen to “听”；consider as “认为……是”。故选B。‎ ‎52答案：A 由该句中的“William Shakespeare”及前面的地名可推知这是莎士比亚的家乡(hometown)。‎ ‎53答案：D 空格后所列的均是作者在该小镇所看到的(see)景点。‎ ‎54答案：A places后“that are connected with __54__”为定语从句。由前文的“Shakespeare's Birthplace, Shakespeare Countryside Museum, The Royal Shakespeare Theatre”可知，从句意为“与莎士比亚相关的地方”。故选A。‎ ‎55答案：D “__55__ Shakespeare was born”为定语从句，修饰先行词the house。设空处引导定语从句，并在从句中作地点状语，故用where引导该从句。‎ ‎56答案：B 莎士比亚在这所房子里度过了他的早年时光。spend “度过”。‎ ‎57答案：B “sitting room ... kitchen”均是指莎士比亚曾居住的房子里的各个部分。Its指代The house's。‎ ‎58答案：A 提到的这些房间是以16世纪的风格(style)布置的。故选A。‎ ‎59答案：C 此处为“介词＋关系代词”引导定语从句，由定语从句中的learn常与from构成固定搭配可知应选C。learn ... from “从……学到”。‎ ‎60答案：C 最后一段作为对全文的概括总结，与首段进行呼应，再次强调了这是“a nice trip to England”，且由第一段的“This was my first time to go abroad ...”可知，此处指的是英国这个国家。故选C。‎ 篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。朋友的祖父去了美国，在一家餐厅吃饭时感触颇深。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Yours，‎ Li Hua ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎
