Many writers choose fantasy for their stories. If we read fantasy
3、 stories, maybe well see that they are made for little children. But theyre not. The message of romance and love in them is not being understood by most of children that read them.

4、antasy movies, we can get the message and tell it to our families.One thing that fantasy stories have,is the magic that makes everyone go into the story.

Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best.
12、Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed (放松) around pets, says Allen, who
13、 thinks it may be because pets dont judge.A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on dietande
14、xercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight.

You spend an hour with them and feel as if youve known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is,
20、we can try to do it ourselves.How is it done? Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, theyll help you put_people_at_their_ease,_and make friends with them quickly.First of all, good talkers have asked questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy he is, will answer a
21、question. One wellknown businesswoman says, “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. Its a common question, but it will get things going.” “From there you can move on to other matterssometimes to really personal questions. And how he answers will let you know how far you
22、 can go.Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen for the answers. This point seems clear, but it isnt. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen, carefully and attentively.Real listening a
23、t least means some things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation. If someone sticks to one topic, you can take it as a fact that hes really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones (语调,语气) of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, its t
24、ime for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion of parting. If youre saying goodbye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “Ive really enjoyed meeting you.” If you want to see that person again, dont keep it a secret. Let people know what you feel
25、, and they may walk away feeling as if theyve known you half their lives.9Youll like to stay with some people _.Awho have something in common with youBwhen you have met him beforeCwith whom you feel it easy to get along wellDfrom whom you can get necessary and timely help答案:C综合推理题。A、B、D项貌似正确,但这是从我们的
26、生活经验的角度去看问题,而不是文章涉及的问题;正确的阅读理解从文章本身去看,所以要概括全文,找出中心。10What does the underlined expression “put people at their ease” mean?ATo make people feel it easy to talk to you.BTo make people feel comfortable.CTo make people more easygoing.DTo make people feel encouraged.答案:B词义理解题。从下文可知,“make friends with them
27、”的前提就是“you put people at their ease”。从构词法可知,easy源自ease,C项“easygoing”意为“随和的”,显然在此不符,B项贴切,因此选择B项。at (ones) ease意为“舒适,无拘无束”。11After asking somebody a question, you should _.Amake it clear what is fit to ask nextBwait quietly for his answersCgo on to ask him more questionsDchange the subject to another
28、one答案:A细节理解题。出处在四、五段,即:要会听,不但听话,还要听音(tones),才能知道问什么合适,问什么不合适。D How I Turned to Be Optimistic I began to grow up on that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunts house,and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America.

30、g goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to seethe strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the im
31、portance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really losthaving to study in three schools as a result of family moves.

49、od答案:A从上下文我们知道,本文讲的是美籍华人女作家Tracy Wong如何开始写作及其作品的主要特点等,再结合搭配很容易得出答案为A。writing skill意为“写作技能”,pick up writing skill意为“培养写作技能”。experience不能与pick up搭配。22A.duty BeffortCjob Dtask答案:C逗号后的teaching disabled children是her first_22_的同位语,同时也与后面的a parttime writer相呼应,故此处选job。23A.Instead BNormallyCCertainly DThen答案
50、:D前面说she became a parttime writer for IBM,以下说写作只是个人爱好,即那时写作只是她的个人爱好,故填Then。24A.general BdeepCpersonal Dlively答案:C从上下文来看,writing stories并非专职工作,只是一件parttime job,由此可判断这是personal interest。25A.Interested BAnxiouslyCSeriously DEncouraged答案:A从后面的他们(the publisher)立即提出了修改等来推测,出版商对她写的故事产生了兴趣。26A.film BstoryCp
51、rogram Darticle答案:B由they immediately suggested that she put them together to make.可推测,此处说的是把3篇短的故事糅合在一起构成1篇长故事,故选用story。27A.a foreign Ba popularCan unusual Dan unknown答案:DTracy Wong刚刚开始写小说,名不见经传,故可推测她是“不出名”的作家最为恰当。28A.Now that BEven thoughCJust because DExcept that答案:B该题考查根据上下文来选用适当的连接词的掌握情况。前面说Trac
52、y所写的人物很有意思,后面说her stories sometimes_29_readers uneasy可推测,该从句应为让步状语从句,而even though正符合这一意义。29A.find BturnCleave Dhold答案:C此处说她写的故事有时让读者不安或不舒服。在这4个选项中只有leave具有这一用法。30A.make up Bconnect withCcontrol Dexplain答案:B从后面她说的话She used to have me speak with my grandmother, who died many years ago及下段的内容说明可知,她与afte
53、rlife world有关,故用connect with。31A.events BchancesCfeelings Dmoments答案:D前面说“我认为我不能”,紧接着用but引出确有这些时刻发生了一些事,故用moments,后面的when things come to me.是修饰moments的定语从句。32A.for no reason Bfrom a distanceCby accident Das gifts答案:A从上下文来看,此处是Tracy说自己与afterlife world有关的故事创作,这里是举例说明有时一些事情会“无缘无故”地发生。33A.description Bp
54、aintingCscene Dtalk答案:C从语境来看,这里谈论的是她写书时的一件怪事。句意为“当时她正不知道怎么完成一个以古代中国为背景的场景”。这是她写的故事中一个场景,故用scene。从结构来看,此处补充完整为:.how to complete a scene which was set in ancient China。34A.Surprisingly BSuddenlyCExpectedly DFortunately答案:B根据语境“正当她不知怎么完成一个以古代中国为背景的场景时,突然门铃响了”。此处用suddenly突出两个动作的发生相继而来,衔接紧凑,同时突出了“没想到”。35
55、A.cooking BhistoryCplay Dmedicine答案:B她正构思以古代中国为背景的某个场景,而邮政快递人员送来的书正好解了燃眉之急,故可推测应是一本有关中国历史的书。36A.known BsentCrealized Dordered答案:Dorder意为“订购,预定”,在此符合语境。37A.unchanged BexcitedCdetermined Dunmoved答案:A从后面的She lives in the same.及动词remain来看,这里说的是尽管她出版了10本书,Tracy并没因成名而改变,即仍保持不变。38A.life BcityChouse Dway答案:
56、D前面说她并没有因成名而变化,即此处说的是她成名后生活方式没有变化,仍然保持着27年前的生活方式。39A.success BworkCjoy Dvariety答案:C由下文可知她的时间不是全用来写作,有“娱乐”的时间。40A.writing BreportingCluck Dfun答案:A从上文的although in a more comfortable home及下文it wasnt just.来看,此处说的是Tracy并没有只是埋头“写作”,而是生活中有更多的空间留给“娱乐”。第二节:语法填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)
