本文讲述的是一个小男孩学校要开家长会,他本来不愿妈妈去,但妈妈却答应了,小男孩很失望,为什么呢?原来妈妈脸上有一块小男孩认为很丑陋的疤痕。但当得知此疤是妈妈为救他而留下的时,小男孩很惭愧。从此文章中我们也感到了母爱的伟大。
小题1:B。从语法角度看四个选项都对,但根据下文来看,小男孩不愿妈妈参加学校家长会,因此当听到妈妈说她将去时,他感到很“失望”。
小题2:A。讲述故事用过去时,会议还未开,是将来时,因此用“would + 动词原形”,表示过去将来。
小题3:D。根据语境可知这将会是他的老师和同学们第一次“见”他的妈妈。
小题4:B。be sick of 意为“厌恶,厌倦”;be ashamed of 意为“感到羞愧,惭愧”;be afraid of 意为“害怕,担忧”;be tired of 意为“厌烦”。根据语境可知答案为 B。小男孩对妈妈的相貌感到羞耻。
小题5:C。cover 意为“遮盖”。严重的疤痕几乎全部遮住了她的右脸
小题6:A。talk about 意为“谈论,讨论”;think about 意为“考虑”;care about 意为“关心”;hear about 意为“听说”。根据语境可知,小男孩从来不想谈论疤痕的原因及疤痕是如何留下的。
小题7:A。be impressed by 意为“被深深打动 / 感动”。在会上,人们都被他妈妈的善良和自然美所感动。
小题8:D。in sight of 意为“临近;可被……望见”;by means of 意为“依靠”;by way of 意为“经由”;in spite of 意为“虽然;尽管……仍”。根据句意可知答案为 D。
小题9:A。hide 意为“躲避,躲藏,避开(某人的视线)”,特指出于羞愧或悲痛。但是小男孩还是感到困窘,因此他避开每一个人。
小题10:C。根据下文内容可知,小男孩是听到了他妈妈和老师之间的谈话,因此答案为 C。
小题11:A。carefully 意为“小心地,谨慎地”;seriously 意为“认真地,真诚地”;nervously意为“胆怯地”;anxiously 意为“忧虑地,不安地”。问别人的“疤痕”应该是“谨慎地问”,故答案为 A。
小题12:B。as, when 和 while 这三个词都可以引出时间状语从句,它们的区别是:when 从句表示某时刻或一段时间;as 从句表示进展过程;while 从句只表示一段时间。根据语境“我儿子小时候,他住的房子找了火”应该是指时间点,因此答案为 B。
小题13:D。too...to... 意为“太…以至于不能”。大家都太害怕了以至于不敢进那房子。
小题14:A。out of control 意为“不受控制”;under control 意为“被控制住”;in control 意为“在控制之下”。根据语境“因为火势无法控制”可知答案为 A。
小题15:C。helpless 意为“无助的”;hopeless 意为“没有希望的,绝望的”; senseless 意为“不省人事的,无感觉的,无意识的”;useless意为“无用的,无效的”。根据语境可知是被燃烧木头敲击得失去知觉,因此答案为 C。
小题16:D。touch 意为“触摸”。她触摸着烧伤的那边脸。
小题17:B。lasting 意为“永久的,永恒的”。“这疤痕将是永恒的。”
小题18:D。“但直到今天,我从未后悔我所做的”,这便是母爱的伟大之处。
小题19:B。他感到了一种伟大的母亲为他所做的牺牲意识。
小题20:C。那天其余的时间他一直紧紧地握着妈妈的手。

Tom was a middle-aged leather trader whose repeated failure in career

   19 the light suddenly went out. So they had to  20  work. Tom was regretful to have forgotten bringing along candles and had to wait   21 in a low mood. Just then he heard slight, hesitant knocks on his door that sounded clear in the   22 night.
“Who’s it?” he wondered, since Tom had no   23 in the new city.
And this was the moment he especially disliked being disturbed.   24 , he went reluctantly to the door and opened it impatiently. At the door was a little girl, shyly asking, “Sir, do you have   25  ? I’m your neighbor.” “No,” answered Tom in anger and shut the door violently. “What a nuisance!” he complained over it with his wife. “No sooner had we settled down   26  the neighbor came to   27  things.” After a while, the door was knocked   28 . He opened it and found the same girl outside. But this time she was holding two candles, saying, “My grandma told me the new neighbor downstairs might need candles. She   29  me here to give you these.” Tom was very   30  by what he saw. When he became fully aware, he said, “Thank you and your  31  . God bless you!”
At that moment he suddenly realized what caused his   32 in life. It
was his  33 and harshness(刻薄)with other people. The person who had cheated him in life was   34   nobody else but himself, for he had fallen for his unsympathetic   35 .

A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people's rule. They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar( 奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way.
Now the very same thing is true to literature. And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail -- that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.
小题1:A friend of the writer's drew the horses ____.
A.very well
B.in the way of western rule
C.in the way of his own rule
D.all of the above
小题2:The writer was surprised because ____.
A.the artist began to draw at the head of the horse
B.the artist began to draw at the tail of the horse
C.the artist made his own rule
D.the artist did not follow other people's rule
小题3:You are not yet experienced because ____.
A.you don't know where to begin
B.you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail
C.you always asked question
D.you do not trust to your own powers
小题4:when you become more experienced you will ____.
A.never ask question
B.often begin at the tail
C.should write the end of the story
D.should think of the beginning
小题5:The topic of the passage is
A.How to draw a horse
B.How to write a story
C.How to make your own rules
D.Trust to your own powers

A number of times Rosemary edged closer to Gordon , meaning to take his arm, but he edged away from her. She thought that she had offended him deeply, and that he was disappointed because she had pushed him away. She would have apologized if he had given her half a chance. But as a matter of fact, he was scarcely thinking of this any longer. It was the money business that was troubling him now. And the fact was that he would soon have to confess it. What nonsense it made of all he had said! Presently she stopped him, and swung him round to face her. “Gordon, why won’t you speak to me?” she said. “Are you still angry with me for what happened just now?”
“No, I was never angry with you. You’re not to blame. Something else has been worrying me all the way along, I’ve only eight pence left. I had just enough money for today when we started out, but that dinner bill upset everything. Can you lend me some money?’
Rosemary was amazed. “What does it matter if you’ve only eight pence left? How can you let yourself be worried by a thing like that? As though I objected to lending you money, aren’t I always telling you that I want to pay for myself when we go out together?’
“Yes, and you know how I hate you paying.”
“Oh, how silly you are.” She said. “Do you think there’s anything to be ashamed of in having no money?”
Gordon’s face went bright pink. “Of course there is ! It’s the only thing in the world there is to be ashamed of. I can’t be a complete human being—I don’t feel a human being –unless I’ve got money in my pocket.”
小题1:What gave Rosemary the idea that she had hurt Gordon’s feelings deeply?
A.He didn’t say he was sorry.
B.He pushed her away when she tried to take his arm.

C.she was angry with himD.he had been rude

Have you ever wanted to feel like you were in a western film? Or maybe you wanted to feel like you were a pioneer traveling the west? It is possible to experience such things during a Wild West vacation! Here are four of the best Wild West vacation locations available:
Walk the Lewis and Clark Trail
Walk some or all of the 3,700 miles trail that was traversed by Mariwether Lewis and William Clark, two of the world’s greatest explorers. Though not all the trails are marked, there are various stops that have been preserved by various historic societies. There is also a coach (长途客车) that makes a 16-day trek following the trail. This begins in St. Louis, Missouri, and ends in Astoria, Oregon.
Venture Route 66
Take a tour or go to see it yourself — ride on the famous Route 66. The road is nearly 2,500 miles long. Harley Davidson offers motorcycle tours that last two weeks. Route 66 will provide an experience that may only be found on the open road. The historic road is still well taken care of.
Visit the Grand Canyon
Visit the greatest canyon in the world, located in Northern Arizona. Raft down the Colorado River, or hike the various trails that run throughout the canyon. If walking is not your thing, there are donkey and horse riding adventures available. In addition, there are motorized boats that float down through the canyon in a week’s time.
Visit Deadwood
Located in South Dakota, Deadwood is a historic landmark. It is the kind of town that comes to mind when one thinks of an old western film. Actors who act as gunslingers (杀手) will often be seen in the streets playing their roles. Winter activities are popular in this old town, and there is always something to do.

My friend Jim and I finally decided to spend our 14 days off in the eastern country.We were arranged to stay with a local family, which made it possible for us to share a real life experience with the locals and in return bring ourselves a richer experience of the native culture and tradition.
In the company of one of our well-informed local tour leaders, we started one of the trips to the nearby town . As we were passing elephants, we stopped , confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by a small rope tied to their front legs . No chains, no cages. It was obvious that these elephants could, at any time, break away from the ropes they were tied to but for some reason, they did not . My friend went up to the trainer and asked why these beautiful animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. “Well,”he said , “When they were young and much smaller we used the same size rope to tie them and at that age, it was enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are accustomed to believing that they can not break away. They believe that the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free. We were amazed . These animals could at any time break away from their ropes but just because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were.
Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we can not do something , simply because we failed at it once before ? How many of us are being held by outdated belief that no longer serves us ? How many of us have avoided trying something new because of a limited belief? Worse still , how many of us are being held back by someone else’s limiting beliefs? Your attempt may fail but never fail to make an attempt.
小题1:What was the author most interested in during his visit?
A.The local people and elephants
B.The local culture and tradition
C.The history of the eastern country
D.The local food and scenery
小题2:What amazed them was to see__________.
A.the trainer playing skillfully with the huge animals
B.the trainer attracting the visitors’s attention in such a way
C.the huge elephants tied only by a small rope
D.the elephants being trained with small ropes
小题3:The elephants never tried to get away because_______.
A.they believed they couldn’t break away from the small ropes
B.they got used to being raised and controlled by human beings
C.they had a very close relationship with their trainers
D.it was hard to break away from the strong and powerful ropes
小题4:The author holds the view that _______.
