11、ten as possible, and you should always wear socks, even when you go to bed.” Well, it seemed a workable solution, the young man thought.The young woman turned to her mother. “Mom,” she said, “when I wake up in the morning my breath is too bad.” “Honey,” her mother said, “everyone has bad breath in t
12、he morning.” “No, you dont understand. My morning breath is so bad that Im afraid my new husband will not want to live in the same room with me. I love him.

Examples include arching (弓起) their backs as a signal of fear or attack, and slowly blinking (眨) their eyes to
20、 signal relaxation. Mouth open and no teeth showed suggests a feeling of playfulness. A cat which chooses to lie on its back shows happiness, trust and comfort. Cats show dissatisfaction by moving their ears back, equal to a human frown (皱眉).As is the case with dogs, a twitching (抽动) tail can mean a
21、 little anger while a tail held high suggests confidence. Cats will twitch their tails when hunting or angry, while larger twitching suggests displeasure. They may also twitch their tails when playing. A tail held high is a sign of happiness, or can be used as a greeting towards humans or other cats
22、 (usually close relatives) while half-raised shows less pleasure, and unhappiness is expressed with a tail held low. Some characteristic signals, however, are often misunderstood. It is important to keep in mind that each cat may show its feelings with different body language. For instance, a cat ru
23、bbing (摩擦) its body along an arm or leg of its owner is not only a way in which to attract attention and, perhaps, a way to ask for food; it is also a way of “marking” its owner as its own.

It lies inside.Strangely enough, when two different men work in the same company, the first person may earn $1,000 a month, while the second may earn $10,000 a month. What causes the
32、difference when they have the same job, use the same tools, and get the same training? Why does one earn $1,000 per month while the other nine times more?

51、参考词汇:模仿 imitate 热情 enthusiasm【写作要求】可以使用实例或其他论述方法支持你的论点,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不得直接引用原文中的句子。参考答案及解析21. D。根据下文给出的原因“. because I could speak little English.”可知“我”几乎不会说英语,所以跟印度人交流起来有困难,而本文所讲正是“我”在与印度人交流中出现的问题,而不是跟印度人一起游戏/比赛、生活或工作时出现的问题,故此处选“交流”。22. B。根据下文“我”没有跟朋友一起出去,后来又不得不去医院的情节可推知“我”身体不舒服。23. A。“我”的朋友们出去了,“我”没
52、跟他们一起去,而在他们走后两小时,“我”不得不去医院。24. D。根据上文“我”不得不去医院的情节可推知“我”嗓子疼。25. C。根据下文“我”每次说完话,司机都微笑的情节可推知司机看起来很和蔼。26. C。根据下文“. then he smiled again and shook his head again!”可知司机摇了摇头。27. A。下文出现了“我”说的话“Ho . spi . tal.”,所以此处是“我”“重复”了一次刚刚说过的话。28. B。“我”之所以重复自己的话,是因为司机一直摇头,于是“我”又重复了好几次,结果司机还是摇头。29. D。朋友回来以后,“我”把“我”的经历告诉
53、了他们,也就是“我”的“故事”。30. B。“我”的朋友们大笑不止是因为“我”没理解出租车司机的意思。在印度摇头就表示“yes”,“事实”就是这样。31. worked。考查动词。根据句式可以判断出“. who still 31 (work) on the farm”为非限制性定语从句,文章时态为过去时态,故应填入work的过去式。32. useless。考查词形变化。由空格前面的系动词 is可知,本空应填入use的形容词形式作表语,又根据上文老人失去了劳动能力可知他的儿子嫌他无用,故填入useless。33. anything。考查代词。根据句意“他无用了,他什么活也不能干”可知,此处应填入
54、不定代词anything。34. a。考查冠词。wooden box是首次出现,为泛指,故使用不定冠词。35. After。考查介词。由句意可知,儿子把箱子关上之后就把箱子拉到农场的边缘处,本空应填入介词After。36. where。考查关系副词。分析句子结构可知,此处是限制性定语从句,由表达地点的先行词farm和从句缺少状语可知,此处应使用关系副词where。 37. it。考查代词。本句缺少宾语,根据句意应为指代the box,所以使用代词it。38. smiling。考查现在分词作定语。由空格前面的冠词the及后面的名词father可知,此处应填入smiling作定语。39. what
55、。考查宾语从句引导词。分析句子结构可知“ 39 you are going to do.”为宾语从句,根据句意可知,老人说的是他知道他儿子要做什么,所以本空应填入what引导宾语从句。40. but。考查连词。根据空格前后的逻辑关系可知,本空应填入表示转折的连词but。41. A。细节理解题。根据第一段原文“I have very smelly feet, so Im afraid that she will not put up with them.”可知答案。42. B。词义猜测题。根据文章第一段内容可知,bridegroom一词指的是这对情侣中的男士,而他们马上就要结婚了,故文中brid
56、egroom一词指的是“即将结婚的男子”。43. C。细节理解题。根据第三段原文“Thinking of the terrible result, he felt frightened at once.”可知丈夫之所以害怕并不是因为袜子不见了,而是因为不穿袜子的后果将会很严重:如果不穿袜子,妻子就会知道他脚臭的实情。44. D。推理判断题。因为婚后妻子早上刷牙之前从不说话,所以丈夫只知道自己脚臭,并不知道妻子早上口气难闻,偏偏他袜子不见了的这天早上妻子开口说话了,于是他闻到了很难闻的气味,所以他才会认为妻子把他的袜子吃了,否则口气不会如此难闻。45. B。推理判断题。本文是一则幽默故事,主要讲
57、一对新婚夫妇在婚前向对方隐瞒了自己的毛病,婚后一个月内他们俩掩饰得都很好,但终于有一天出现状况。他们彼此深爱对方,所以在这之后最后可能发生的是彼此坦白,说明真相,最后互相谅解。46. C。细节理解题。根据第一段“Examples include arching their backs as a signal of fear or attack .”可知答案。 47. B。细节理解题。根据第一段“. slowly blinking their eyes to signal relaxation.”可知缓慢地眨眼睛表明猫很放松。文中提到猫在躺着时表明它很开心和舒服,但未提到它趴着时表明什么,故排除
58、A项;根据第二段“A tail held high is a sign of happiness, or can be used as a greeting .”可知C项错误;根据第一段“Cats show dissatisfaction by moving their ears back, equal to a human frown.”可知D项不正确。48. A。细节理解题。根据第二段“Cats will twitch their tails when hunting or angry, while larger twitching suggests displeasure. They m
59、ay also twitch their tails when playing.”可知,猫在捕食,感到生气或在玩耍时会抽动尾巴。而A项在文中没有提到。49. B。细节理解题。根据第三段“For instance, a cat rubbing its body along an arm or leg of its owner is not only a way in which to attract attention and, perhaps, a way to ask for food; it is also a way of “marking” its owner as its own.”
60、可知,猫在主人身上蹭来蹭去可能是要引起主人的注意,还可能是想要吃的东西,或者是想表明它的主人是属于它的。50. D。段落大意题。根据最后一段“To understand cats, people must observe a cat closely and learn what its body signals tell them.”可知,本段主要想告诉人们要多多观察猫,研究猫的身体语言。51. D。细节理解题。根据第一段原句“Many people talk about sales growth, profit growth, and possession growth, but none
61、of these will happen without personal growth.”可知答案。52. A。细节理解题。根据第二段 “. the things that Ive covered above just play minor (次要的) roles in helping you reach a good future. The major cause doesnt lie outside. It lies inside.”可知B、C、D三项的内容都属于外部原因,不是主要原因;主要原因在内而不在外,因此答案为A。53. D。推理判断题。根据最后一段 “The cause of
62、the difference lies in believing, in trying, in accepting failures, in thinking, in a smile at people around, and in the ways of dealing with problems.”可知D项的内容不在这些因素范围内。54. C。推理判断题。在最后一段中作者提出了对青少年的鼓励“Teens are the most wonderful and important period in life. If you want a great future, begin to impr
63、ove yourself from now on!”,故本文的目标读者就是青少年。55. B。主旨大意题。本文第一段是主旨段,第一段最后一句点出了本文的主题 “The key to your future is you yourself.”,因此B项可作本文的标题。56. F。Wang Gang正在考虑给女朋友买钻石首饰,但还没有决定买耳环还是项链。F提供多种首饰,并可以为顾客提供一些建议,适合Wang Gang。57. C。Jack下周要回澳大利亚,他打算走前在中国买一些丝绸制品送给他的妻子和母亲。C提供精美的丝绸制品,可以满足Jack的需要。58. D。Mary对小装饰品很感兴趣,她计划买一些笔筒和相框送给朋友们。D提供各种各样的小装饰品,可以满足她的要求。59. A。Li Jing想在这个周末买一些法国品牌的化妆品。A提供包括法国品牌在内的多种化妆品,适合Li Jing。60. B。Zhao Lin下个月就要在一家美国公司上班了,因为他个子高,他决定去量身订做一套西服。B提供最优质的服装裁剪,适合Zhao Lin。
