28、as center”可知,20世纪60年代的时候英国人开始使用一些美式拼写。2.D推理判断题。作者引用petrol的例子是为了证明前一句话中的说法“they are mostly uncommon words and are not likely to change British English too much”。3.B推理判断题。由最后一段中的“.is British English actively following American English or is this something that is simply a natural trend in language use
29、?”及最后一句“I think the first is more correct”可知,作者认为英式英语在效仿美式英语。【篇章导读】本文是记叙文。作者教书35年后退休了,但是退休后继续给移民们上英语课,这些来自各个国家的移民成人学生们给作者留下了深刻的印象。他们虽然生活艰辛忙碌,但他们很少缺课,而且上课认真,心地质朴。4.B细节理解题。根据第二段中的第二句可知,学生中有一个男的,故A项错误;根据第三段中的第三句可知,学生们总是让老师很开心,所以C项错误;根据最后一句可知,他们很少旷课,故D项错误;根据第三段中的首句可知,他们都结婚了,有了孩子,在上班。故选B项。5.C推理判断题。根据第四段内
30、容可知,Blanca的孩子们主动向作者挥手打招呼并且作者认为他们是值得被尊重的、可爱的。故可推知,Blanca对孩子们的教育很好。6.A词义推测题。根据前面的often-exhausted mother可知,后面的妈妈因为每天工作而经常筋疲力尽地回家,应该是吃力地走在孩子们的后面。故选A项。7.C推理判断题。根据全文内容尤其是首段中的最后一句“Its been a joy!”可知,作者认为这份工作给他带来快乐,还是喜欢这份工作的。故选C项。二、【篇章导读】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了跑步锻炼身体时的几条建议。1.D由下文中的“If you run for fitness and your go
31、al is 30 minutes a day,thats cool.”可知,每天跑步应该在身体承受的范围之内。2.G由上文中的“whether running shoes really help prevent injury and whether you should even wear them”可知,好的跑鞋可以纠正脚在鞋内的移动,避免因这些移动而产生伤害。3.B由下文中的“Be honest about how much sleep you need and stick to it.”可知,该小标题与睡眠有关,建议人们每天应保证7到8小时的睡眠。4.E由上文中的“Fuel your b
32、ody right for running and recovery”以及下文中的“you need to deliver nutrients to all the body rebuilders”可知,跑前进食的计划可以帮助你变得强壮。5.A由上文中的“When pain changes the way you run,stop running.”可知,一旦发现疼痛,应立刻停止跑步,检查问题出在哪里,并及时治疗。三、1.usually考查副词。设空处在此修饰谓语,表示“通常”,故填usually。2.how考查连接词。设空处所在句意为:这里就讲讲在家中怎么(how)处理伤口。3.pressi
33、ng考查动词-ing形式做宾语的用法。设空处做by的宾语,故填pressing。4.longer考查形容词比较级。由设空处前面的much可知,应用形容词比较级,故填longer。5.to wash考查不定式做状语的用法。使用肥皂的目的是清洗伤口周围的皮肤,故填to wash。6.helpful考查形容词做表语的用法。设空处做表语,意为“有帮助的”,故填helpful。7.injured考查过去分词做定语的用法。设空处做定语修饰area,又因为injure与area之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,且injure所表示的动作已完成,故填injured。8.which考查关系代词。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,补充说明前面整个主句,且在从句中做主语,故填which。9.It考查it的用法。设空处在此做形式主语,真正的主语是后面的不定式短语,故填It。10.signs考查名词复数。sign是可数名词且在此表泛指,故填名词复数形式signs。
