My classmate except me were in high spirits. At the coming party I would have to do
some cleanings, for I wasn’t able to dance and sing. During the party, I tried to keep
the room being clean. After the party I got rid the rubbish. Enjoying my classmates’
smiling faces, I felt their job worthwhile. When told the room will have been a dustbin
without me I thought of a saying, "There must have a use for my talent." You may
have no special talent, so as long as you try to do good in everything useful, you’ll find
everything is beautiful at every corner of your life. 2. some →cleaning 3. sing→or 去掉being 5. rid后加of job→my 7. have→ would 9. as→ but 10. do in→well

Our school lies on the foot of a mountain with a small river passes by. It used to be a
quiet, clean and beautiful place for a school. It is a pity which things have changed
after a chemical factory was built near our school one year ago. Every day the factory
produces many waste water and some harmful gases. The terribly pollution is harmful
to our health. What’s bad, the great noise from the factory had a bad effect on our
activities. As a result, our school is no longer what it used to. Our teachers and students

In the country now, there are many children do not attend the school. I think one of the
reasons is that their families are very poor to send them to school. They had to stay at
home to make money to support their families. Other reason is that many parents think
it useless of the girls to study and they do not like them to go to school. A third reason
is what some children are not interesting in their lessons. In my opinion, all children,

“Give it half a pound of meat.” Then she gave it to the dog saying “Bring it to the
butcher’s.” The dog ran here and gave the paper to the butcher. He read it and did.
Soon, the dog came again and gave him other piece of paper. Without looking, he did
so once more. Two hours late it came again. He wandered why Mrs. Smith gave it so

There was once a little girl named Molly. Her dad was good at gardening. Every day, he worked in a small garden at the back of their house. Molly would quietly watch her dad working in the garden. She wondered how the little seeds(种子)grew into seedlings and those into big plants. The beautiful colors of flowers and fruits made her excited. “When I grow up, I shall work in the garden like dad,” she would think.
Then one day, dad brought her some books, notebooks, pencils, and an eraser because she would go to school soon. Molly had seen her elder brother sharpening(削)his pencil every day. Every time he sharpened the pencil, it looked smaller. And his eraser also became smaller because he used it every day.

Molly watered her pot daily. Every day she would look carefully for signs of growing. She wondered why her pencil and eraser did not grow.

36.答案:C
解析:still作形容词的意思是“不动的,静止的,无声的,寂静的,无风的”,still air表示一点风也没有。从而进一步描述了夏天的炎热。在如此炎热的天气情况下,人们很容易发脾气,争吵,完全符合下文的描述。fresh air意为“新鲜的空气”。cool意为“凉爽的”,与上文中的温度over a hundred degree相矛盾。thin意为“稀薄的”。
37.答案:D
解析:rise意为“上升”,词义广泛,指具体的或抽象的某物向较高水平或位置移动,这里指人们由于天气炎热,旅游者和服务员的脾气都很糟糕,使得人们处于容易争吵的环境中。manage to do sth表示“能够做某事”,指经过努力成功地做了某事。expect意为“期待”,期待发脾气不符合实际情况。attempt意为“企图”。
38.答案:C
解析:well-dressed意为“穿得好的”,根据上文中的attractive可判断出这对夫妇衣着良好。lonely意为“孤独的”。curious意为“好奇心旺盛的;好事的,爱看热闹的”。bad-tempered意为“脾气坏的”。都不符合下文中held hands,whispered,kissed,and laughed两人的行为和心情。
39.答案:B
解析:service意为“服务”,从上文中的On a hot summer day in late August, I sought shade and a cool drink at a waterfront café on a Greek island.可以看出这个故事发生在一个酒吧里,所以这一对夫妇在等待着服务员的服务。cheer意为“款待”,指做客时受到的款待。attention意为“注意,注目”。flower意为“花”。
40.答案:A
解析:metal table意为“铁桌子”,根据下文中的to place the table in the sea water可判断出这一对夫妇把桌子移到了海水中。empty bottle意为“空瓶子”。chair意为“椅子”。bag意为“皮包”。都与下文的情景不相符合。
41.答案:B
解析:off意为“脱离”,指离开某个地方。表示他们一块离开了他们原来坐的地方。on意为“在……上面”,on the edge of表示“在……的边缘上”。around意为“在周围,围着;绕过”。along意为“沿着”。
42.答案:D
解析:back意为“返,归”,上文讲到这对夫妇把铁桌子搬到了海水里,所以那个男的回来把椅子搬走。outside意为“在外面”。forward意为“向前,前进”。down意为“向下”。
43.答案:B
解析:seat意为“使……坐下”,主语是人时,宾语往往是反身代词,主语是处所时,指“能坐 (多少人)”。下文中的then sat down himself说明那位男的先让那位妇女坐下。lead意为“领导,引导,带领”,着重指先行引路,引导某人达到某一目标,并要求某人有秩序地跟随或处于被控制之下。watch意为“观望”。receive意为“接到,收到”。
44.答案:C
解析:waiter意为“服务员”,上文讲述了这两位夫妇等待着服务,所以出现的应该是服务员,而不会是经理、朋友或仆人。
45.答案:A
解析:set意为“放;搁,安置;布置;安排”,set the table表示把桌子布置好。wash意为“洗”,把桌子洗一洗,这明显不符合实际情况,因为在饭店吃饭时,服务员常常是把桌子擦干净,放上餐具,而不会把桌子洗一洗。remove意为“移动”,指把桌子移动另外的地方。check意为“检查,检验,校对,核对,对照,比较”。
46.答案:D
解析:order意为“叫的菜”,指把他们叫的菜的菜单拿走。bill意为“账单”,指顾客用完餐后所应付的账单。menu意为“菜单”,指客人在叫菜前用的菜单。
47.答案:A
解析:loud意为“响亮的,大声的,高声吵闹的,喧噪的”,故事发生在酒吧里,人们一面喝酒,一面相互祝酒干杯,发出响亮的声音。anxious意为“忧虑的,担心的;挂念的,焦急的”。familiar意为“熟悉……的”。final意为“最后的”。
48.答案:B
解析:customer意为“顾客”,指在酒吧进餐的客人。tourist意为“旅客”,指在旅游的客人。fellow意为“同伴,伴侣;帮手;同事,同辈;同类,酒友”。assistant意为“助手;帮手,助理,店员,伙计”。
49.答案:C
解析:once more意为“再一次”,根据上下文的内容可判断出服务员再一次到水中去。at last意为“最后”,常指通过主观努力,克服种种困难,经过一番拖延或曲折之后,终于排除障碍,达到目的或取得成功,具有较浓的感情色彩。in time意为“及时地”。as well意为“也,又”,表示某个动作或事物与另一个动作或事物是并列关系。
50.答案:D
解析:serve意为“服务,招待”,指在饭店或酒吧服务员为顾客端上饭菜、酒、饮料等。change意为“改变”。drink意为“喝”。sell意为“卖”。
51.答案:A
解析:reply意为“答复,回答”,这里指当这对夫妇向服务员和人们祝酒时,人们也以欢呼和把鲜花扔过来的方式作为回答。insist意为“坚持”。agree意为“同意”。understand意为“理解”。
52.答案:B
解析:join in意为“参加”,表示参加某项活动或事项。这里指其他三张桌子也搬进了水里,与这对夫妇的桌子合并到一起。prepare意为“准备”。settle up意为“解决”。continue意为“继续”。
53.答案:C
解析:in the sea表示“在海水里”。从上文中的to the place the table in the sea water可知,这一对夫妇把桌子搬进海水里,其他三张桌子也加入进来。由此可判断出这里指的是在海水里。with pleasure意为“高兴地”。in the café意为“在酒吧里”。with wine意为“用酒”。
54.答案:D
解析:cross意为“横越,穿过”,cross the line of convention表示“打破常规”,在一般情况下,人们是在酒吧或饭店里就餐,而现在人们在海水里就餐,这不能不说是打破常规。
55.答案:A
解析:life意为“生活”。enjoy life意为“享受生活”,作者认为有时候人们应该考虑打破常规来完美地享受生活。wine意为“酒”,指葡萄酒和各种果酒。lunch意为“午餐”。time意为“时间”。

and her newborn baby. I took the card back to my room and about it.
Several days later I another postcard, this one news about Maybelline, Mabel?s cousin. Soon after, another card arrived and then another, full of news of different people. I began to look forward to the next one, to see what this author would come up with
Finally, the cards coming, right about the time I had begun to feel about college life. They had been such a happy distraction(调剂)that I have all the postcards and still bring them out to read whenever I need a lift.

21.答案:C
解析:as后接形容词意为“就像……样子”。表示自己也像许多人那样想家。if用于引导条件状语从句,意为“如果”。so是并列连词,意为“因此”。what引导名词性从句,在从句中作主语、宾语、表语。
22.答案:A
解析:often意为“经常”,上文中的I got quite homesick表明作者非常想家。carefully意为“小心地”。seldom意为“不常;很少;难得……”,与上文的内容矛盾。merely意为“单;只;纯粹;全然”。
23.答案:D
解析:happy意为“高兴,幸福”,常指伴随幸福感或满足感产生的快乐心情,这种心情可能是暂时的,也可能持续一段较长的时间。表示许多学生最高兴的时刻。hard意为“艰难的”。last意为“最后的”。busy意为“繁忙的”。
24.答案:B
解析:letter意为“信件”,从下文中的mailbox可知,许多学生最高兴的时刻是收到家中的来信。visitor意为“访问者,参观者”。call意为“(电话)通话”。direction意为“指示,命令,吩咐;用法说明”。
25.答案:A
解析:empty意为“空的”,这是一个让步状语从句,表示两个句子之间是转折对比关系,许多学生把收到家中的来信看作是最高兴的时刻,而作者的信箱里却是空的。full意为“满 的”,与短文内容矛盾。closed意为“关闭的”,不符合实际情况。open意为“开着的”。
26.答案:C
解析:stare意为“盯着看,目不转睛地看 (at), 凝视;瞪眼看得…;瞪眼看,张大眼睛看”。这是一种比喻,比喻一封明信片像人人一样盯着作者看。pour意为“注,倒,灌,泻”,指大批的信件从邮箱中流出来。显然不符合实际情况。reach意为“到达”。roll意为“滚动”。
27.答案:D
解析:expect意为“期待”指期待得到某种东西或发生某种情况。上文讲述了作者的邮箱里经常是空的,现在当他发现有一张明信片时,就迫不及待地坐下来读了起来,期待着家中的人给他写的东西。describe意为“描写”。consider意为“考虑”。enjoy意为“享受……的乐趣”。
28.答案:A
解析:but意为“但是”,表示两个句子之间是转折对比关系。比较前后的内容可以判断出这两个句子是转折对比关系,作者本来期待着家中的来信,但信的内容却是一个名叫Mabel的事。thus意为“因此”。also意为“也”。even意为“甚至”。
29.答案:B
解析:no意为“没有”。表示没有像这样的明信片。any意为“任?a href="http://www.zw2.cn/zhuanti/guanyuwozuowen/" target="_blank" class="keylink">我桓觥薄ome意为“某个”。such意为“这样的”。
30.答案:C
解析:forget意为“忘记”。因为Mabel与作者无关,所以他很快就把这封明信片忘记了。joke意为“开玩笑”。talk about意为“谈论”。care about意为“关心”。
31.答案:D
解析:receive意为“收到”,表示接收者客观地收到,并不表示愿意接受与否,指作者收到了另外一张明信片。mail意为“邮寄”。write意为“写”。accept意为“接受”,表示收到者经过考虑,主观上愿意接受所接之物。
32.答案:A
解析:deliver意为“传达,传(话等)”,表示这封明信片讲述了有关Maybelline的事。demand意为“要求,请求;需要,询问,盘问,追究”。discover意为“看出,发现,看到”。develop
