Someone called me up in the middle of the night, but they hung up        I could answer the phone.

A.as               B.since             C.until             D.before

 

【答案】

D

【解析】

试题分析:as因为,随着;since由于,自从……以来; until直到;before在……之前。句意:半夜有人给我打电话,但是在我回电话之前,他们就挂断了。结合语境可知选D。

考点:连词辨析

点评:连词在句子中主要起联系上下文的作用,他们之间的区别就是表示逻辑关系的不同,所以在解题时先要理解上下文含义,然后根据上下文逻辑关系选择合适的连词。连词的用法都比较多,语义之间还有交叉,熟记其基本应用规则,了解其区别,注意固定搭配对象,是做好此类题型的关键。

Names

  Everybody in the world has one name at least. And to each person his name is important because it is his own.

  Remember how you don't like it very much if people can't remember your name, or pronounce it wrong? Remember how you like to see it printed in the newspaper or even on the blackboard at school? That's because it is your own and only you can have it.

  Of course, names aren't important in themselves. There are no “good” names or “bad” names. But they are useful in our life. You don't have to go around shouting!

  “Hey, You!”or “Hello. Girl-with-the-red-hair.”or “Thank you, Man-who-lives-at-the-end-of-the-street.” Wouldn't it be foolish?

  A person's name means something. For example. John or Nathan means “present”. James or Jacob means “he follows after.” Frank means “free”. Charles has “strong” in meaning. Thomas is a word for “twin”. Girls'names mean something, too. If you know a Mary or a Miriam, her name means “star of the sea.” Helen means “light”. Rebecca, “very beautiful”. Rhoda is a “rose”.

  Now first names are all we need when we've at home. For it isn't very often that two sisters or two brothers have the same first name. But it's different when you go out to play or go to school. You may have a lot of Johns and Davids and Sues. You could get all mixed up and not know who was who. That's why last names started. And last names are really nicknames(绰号).

  It happened like this: There was a certain Richard. Since his father's name was James, he was called “Richard, son of James.” And later just Richard Jameson.

  The place where they lived gave some people their last names. For example, Mr Short was talking about Joseph.

  “Which Joseph?” someone might ask.

  “Why, the Joseph who lives in the field.”

  And right then that Joseph had a last name: Joseph Field. You can think of many more last names that started that way.

1.You like your name ________.

[  ]

A.because people can't remember it

B.because it is important

C.when others give the wrong pronunciation

D.when it is printed in the newspaper or written ca the blackboard

2.Names are ________.

[  ]

A.important in themselves

B.useful in our life

C.good or bad

D.foolish

3.Sometimes a person's name means something, for example, ________.

[  ]

A.John is “strong”

B.Mary means “star of the sea”

C.Charles is a “present”

D.Helen is a word of “happiness”

4.Last names started because ________.

[  ]

A.two brothers or two sisters have the same first names

B.you often go out to play or go to school

C.if you aren't at home, you may meet a lot of Johns, Davids or Sues

D.you don't know everybody outside

5.How does a last name come from?

[  ]

A.The Joseph lives in the field. He is called Joseph Field.

B.His father is called Jameson so his son becomes Jameson.

C.The place where Mr Short lives often gives people the same name.

D.People like to give others nickname.

When you cough or sneeze, you’d better turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. And then, you should say, “Excuse me.”

This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this. Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public without placing a hand over the mouth. One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. If not, they will be passing those germs (细菌) along to everything and everyone they touch.

If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door. If the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other person to pass through first, then you can walk through. If the door opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through

After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had to discuss the problem with my students. Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go along way toward helping students realize hot to be polite and thank others. Once they’ve been told, they’re halfway there.

When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right. That will give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the moving stairs. When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter

After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways. I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan. In both places, people made efforts to make way for others. On moving stairs, everyone stood to the right and walked to the left. On lifts, everyone would stand over to the side and allow others to exit before they would begin to enter.

1. When you cough or sneeze, you should ________.

       A. touch everything                                     B. cover your mouth

       C. point out to the kids                                D. pass the germs to others

2. If you come to a door and someone is following you, you’d better _______.

       A. hold the door                                       B. pass through

C. close the door                                      D. stand to the side

3. From the passage we ca know the writer is a ________.

       A. doctor                 B. traveler               C. parent                 D. teacher

4. A. The passage is mainly about ______.

       A. the rules of behavior in public                   B. the easy of communication

       C. the acts of kindness among people            D. the knowledge of social life
