 Perhaps the only test score that I remember is the 41. I was in high school. The test was the final for the class. It was a rather  36  test. I didn’t know how  37  I had done but I knew there were things on   38   that I didn’t know.

   I remember   39    waiting for the result. When Mr. Bales  40  my paper on my desk, I was   41    . There in big  42   numbers, circled to draw attention, was my grade — 41! I  43  my paper so that others couldn’t see it. A 41 was not   44   that you wanted your classmates to see. Finally, Mr. Bales stood behind the desk and   45   the class. “The grades were not very good;   46  of you passed,” he announced. “ The highest grade in the class was a 41, so all of you failed.”

   A 41. That was me. Suddenly my dismal(阴沉的) face didn’t look quite so bad. I had the highest grade. I felt a lot   47   . As soon as I got home, my mother asked me, “How did you do on your test?” “I made a 41,” I said. My mother’s    48   changed suddenly. “You failed.” “But I had the highest grade in the class!” I replied. “ I don’t    49   what everyone else had. You failed. It doesn’t matter if everyone else failed too; what matters is what you do,” my mother  50   answered.

   For years, I thought that was a harsh judgment. My mother was always that  51  . It didn’t matter what the other kids did; it only mattered what I did and  52  I did it excellently.

   We often don’t understand the wisdom of good parents until we ourselves stand   53  the parenting shoes. My mother’s philosophy(人生态度)has   54    me throughout life. The path of the crowd is wide but the path to pass the tests of life is   55   and there are very few people on it.

试题分析:本文叙述了作者在高中一次期末考试中竟然考了41分,自己认为考得太少了,不敢拿出来怕让别的同学看见了,当老师宣布最高分是41分时,自己感觉好一点了。但是回到家,母亲问作者考了多少分,当母亲听到41分时,她坚定地认为作者虽然考了第一名那也是不及格。

1.考查形容词及上下文的呼应。 easy容易的; difficult困难的;exciting令人高兴的; disappointed失望的。根据The highest grade in the class was a 41, 全班最高的分数是41分,所以证明这次考试很难的,故选B。

2.考查副词及上下文的呼应。 much许多; good 好,形容词; well好,副词;          long长。这里well来修饰动词done,“我”不知道自己做得有多好,故选C。

3.考查代词及上下文的呼应。 this这个; them它们; it它; one代词,代替同类的名词。it代替上文提到的test;“我”知道关于考试的一些事情,故选C。

4.考查副词及上下文的呼应。 happily高兴地; anxiously焦急地;  excitedly兴奋地; calmly平静地。根据常识可知作者在焦急地等待考试结果。“我”记得焦急地等着结果,故选B。

8.考查动词及上下文的呼应。collect收集; gather聚集; hide躲藏;keep保持。根据so that others couldn’t see it.可知“我”把试卷藏起来以防让别人看见,故选C。

9.考查代词及上下文的呼应。everything一切事情; something值得重视的事,某事;anything任何事; nothing无事。41分不是一个你想要你的同学看见的。故选B。

10.考查动词及上下文的呼应。 talk谈话; declare宣布; announce宣布;address讲话。贝尔斯站在“我”的桌子后面,他给全班同学讲话,故选D。

11.考查代词及上下文的呼应。some一些; each每一个;  none 没有人或物; most大多数。根据下文The highest grade in the class was a 41, so all of you failed.”最高分数是41分,所以没有一个人通过考试,故选C。

19.考查动词及上下文的呼应。 take拿走; bring带来; fetch去取;carry携带。“我”的母亲的人生态度跟着“我”的一生,故选D。

For hundreds of years, artists have used cartoons to criticize bad rulers or landowners. As early as the 19 th century, people produced and read books of drawings. In many ways, they were similar to modern comics(漫画). They contained stories of naughty children and playful animals. The owl and the elephant were usually wise animals, ready to give advice. The lion and tiger were brave. The fox and wolf were cunning, greedy and dangerous.

    A century ago, an American newspaper published the first-color comic strip. It was so popular that sales of the newspaper, Morning Journal, increased quickly. Since then, newspapers throughout the world have included comic strips.

    In modern time, comics are popular in China, Japan, the USA and almost everywhere. Not even video games or CD-ROMs have reduced their popularity. Names such as Snoopy, Woodstock and Garfield are well known in dozens of countries. The Peanuts comic strip appears in over 2,000 newspapers and in more than 25 languages.

    Perhaps one day, you may like to create your own comic strip and become a millionaire. First, you must think of a good plot. It should be funny, exciting or interesting in some way. It should have plenty of action. Moreover, the language must be realistic and simple. The words should suit the characters in your story.

    Furthermore, the characters in your story must be clear to readers. They should be obviously good or bad. In many comic strips—especially those showing crime of adventure—there should also be a hero or heroine. This will attract the reader to keep on reading the story. 

1. Which of the following is NOT the name of a cartoon character?

  A. Snoopy             B. Garfield         C. Peanuts        D. Woodstock

2. We can know from the first paraphaph that rulers ________.

    Dr Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September 2001. It is the largest study of humour. Participants are invited to log on  to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details , tell their favorite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.

    The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the world’s funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose, the researches want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humor. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.

This is a subject that has long interested psychologists and philosophers. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves.

By December 2001 over 10,000 jokes had been submitted(提交). This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humor, for instance.

“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humor,” said Dr Wiseman. “Males use humor to appear superior(优越的) to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play.”

Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humor. The British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humor”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “You’re a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for $500?” “Yes. What’s the second question?”

The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humor. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I don’t know, but let’s say yes, just to be safe.

Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us.

1.Scientist started “the laugh lab” project ____________

   A.to find the funniest joke in European countries

   B.to know what funny people are from different nations and cultures

   C.to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humor

   D.to get more personal details about participants

2.What is the main idea of the 4 th and 5 th paragraph?

    A.Man and woman have different senses of humour.

    B.Male and female have similar senses of humour.

    C.About 10,000 jokes have been submitted from September 2001 to December 2001.

    D.Scientists have collected enough evidence to make conclusions.

3.The writer gave the examples of the British, the French and the Germans        .

    A.to show that French people have a better sense of humour

    B.to prove the British people have a sense of “toilet humour”

    C.to show people from different nations have different senses of humour

    D.to prove that the Germans have no sense of humour

4.Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?

   A.The jokes by computer are less funny than those by humans

   B.The Germans cannot find the submitted jokes amusing

   C.Males are better at word play compared with women

   D.Females like to use humor to show that they are superior
