During the administration of President Garfield, Robert Todd Lincoln became Secretary of War.He was a close personal friend of President Garfield and, when the President prepared to leave for a visit to the seashore at Elberton, New Jersey, Secretary Lincoln accepted an invitation to go along.As Secretary Lincoln reached the railway station, he encountered the stretcher bearers carrying out the fatally wounded President Garfield, victim of an assassins(刺客) bullet. Twenty years later, as Robert Todd Lincoln entered the Temple of Music in Buffalo to greet President McKinley, the President was carried past him by stretcher bearers.Garfield, Lincoln, and McKinley were the presidents to be assassinated (暗杀), and Robert Todd Lincoln was the only man who was on the scene immediately after all the shootings.31From the first paragraph, we can infer that Clive_Atried to kill himself but was saved by a subordinateBremained a clerk all his lifeCbecame famous later in lifeDwas a man who liked to play jokes32Which of the following is TRUE about the subordinate?AHe fired the gun.BHe tried to kill himself but failed.CHe didnt know how to use a revolver.DHe was not pleased with his position.33What kind of fate was lying there for Robert Todd Lincoln?AHe escaped narrow death three times.BHe was lucky enough to hold important positions in the government of three presidents.CHe was the only man who saw the deaths of three presidents.DHe was the only man who arrived immediately after the three presidents were shot.34Who was the most lucky of the people mentioned in the passage?AThe subordinate.

DMcKinley.35What would be the best title for the passage?AThe Fatal Witness BDifferent Fates for Different People CThe Shootings of Three Presidents DThe Sad Life of Robert Todd LincolnBWASHINGTONSchool lunches have been called many things, but a group of retired military officers is giving them a new label: national security threat. Thats not a reference to the mystery meat served up in the cafeteria line either. The retired officers are saying that school lunches have helped make the nations young people so fat that fewer of them can meet the militarys physical fitness standards, and recruitment will be difficult. A new report being released Tuesday says more than 9 million young adults, or 27 percent of all Americans ages 17 to 24, are too overweight to join the military. Now, the officers are advocating for passage of a wideranging nutrition bill that aims to make the nations school lunches healthier. The military group acknowledges that other things keep young adults out of the armed services, such as a criminal record or the lack of a high school diploma. But weight problems that have worsened over the past 15 years are now the leading medical reason that recruits are rejected. Although all branches of the military now meet or exceed recruitment goals, retired Navy Rear Adm. James Barnett Jr., a member of the officers group, says the obesity trend could affect that. “When over a quarter of young adults are too fat to fight, we need to take notice，” Barnett said. He noted that national security in the year 2030 is “absolutely dependent” on reversing child obesity rates. This isnt the first time the military has gotten involved in the debate over school lunches. During World War ， military leaders had the opposite problem, reporting that many recruits were rejected because of stunted growth and inadequate nutrition. After the war, military leaders pushed Congress to establish the national school lunch program so children would grow up healthier. Today, the group is urging Congress to eliminate junk food and highcalorie beverages from schools, put more money into the school lunch program and develop new strategies that help children develop healthier habits.36. What is the main problem of the lunches in schools according to the military officers?AThe meat in the lunches is mysterious.BThe lunches are too expensive.CThe lunches contain too much fat.DThere is inadequate nutrition in the lunches. 37. The underlined word “obesity” in Paragraph 5 means _. Aslow in mind Bstate of being fatCquick in movement Dlack of confidence38. Which of the following statements is NOT true?AThe lunches in American schools are not very healthy.BDuring World War ， many people could not join the army because of overweight.CAccording to the author, overweight was the key reason why many recruits were rejected.DBy now, Congress hasnt eliminated junk food and highcalorie beverages from schools. 39. Which of the following is the best title for the article?ASchool lunches: a national security threat?BNational security in danger?CRetired officers tired of school lunchesDThe recruitment of 2030课时作业(五).1.B考查冠词。a great success“极大的成功”，抽象名词前往往加上不定冠词，表示“一次、一种、一场等”；the cinema“电影院”。2C考查动词短语的搭配。focus on表示“集中注意力”；其他三个选项动词与介词搭配错误。aimat；payto；concentrateon是习惯用法。3A考查dream的用法。dream of doing；与there be句型结构连用为dream of there being。4D考查used to 和be used to 的区别。句意：他以前住在南方，因而适应这里的气候很难。used to表示“过去经常(现在已经不了)”；get/be used to表示“习惯于”。5A考查动词短语辨析。come uponcome across 意为“偶然遇到”；come in意为“进来，参与”；come out意为“出现，出版”；come up意为“破土而出”。6A考查动词短语辨析。句意：我们在街上迷路了，大雨让我们更加无助。add to表示“增加”；lead to 表示“导致，通向”；turn out表示“结果是”；make up表示“编造，构成”。7B考查介词搭配。effect常与介词on搭配使用。8C考查非谓语动词短语作定语的用法。referred to 与in属不同的意群。referred to为过去分词短语作定语修饰clerk，相当于who was referred to。9C考查宾语从句的连接词。句意：我们已经为她提供了一份工作，但是不知道她是否接受。故选whether，意为“是否”。10D根据句意“过了一段时间我们才意识到真相”，即在此之前不了解真相，故选择before。这实际上是句型“It was一段时间before”，表示“过了多久才”，其他连词的用法不符合题意。.11.A后文讲到作者跟别人合伙去旅行，所以说工资比较低，支付不起。12C因此作者决定跟中国团，用so。13B从后文Making all the reservations and connections is a nightmare for me可知既然是噩梦，那么作者就是一个容易紧张的人。14B15Csacrificefor固定搭配，为了牺牲16D此处语意转折，安全的同时也要牺牲自由，要求跟着向导。17B这里指在生活中很独立。18A生活独立，但是提到旅行就不一样了，此处表示转折。19C20A去他们指定的地方。21D前文描述不成问题的地方，转而讲述出现的问题。22C因为作者一个人，所以要与别人分享房间。23D24B表示说某种语言再搭配后文的English可知用B。25A对方不愿意与作者同住，要与朋友们一起住，故用their。26C被拒绝后作者有点失落。27A大家刚开始是陌生人，后来就熟悉了。28D固定词组be/get familiar with。29B30D.A31C推理判断题。根据第一段前两句可以知道，命运常常对一些著名的人开玩笑，而Clive更是其中的经典，所以由此推出C正确。32A细节理解题。由第一段的“A subordinate took the same pistol from Clives hand and fired it six times in succession.”可知。33D细节理解题。由最后一段的最后一句话“Robert Todd Lincoln was the only man who was on the scene immediately after all the shootings.”可知答案为D。34B推理判断题。结合全文可以看出Clive从枪口中获生，且由开篇的“The manner in which fate saved Clive of India for his mission in history is a matter of record.”可知，命运与他开的玩笑是历史上的经典，他也最幸运。35A主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了命运对某些著名人物开的玩笑，因此那些著名人物就成了命运的见证人，所以选择The Fatal Witness较为合适。B本文介绍了美国中学生的午餐问题。美国退休的军官把美国中学生的午餐当成“国家安全威胁”，因为午餐中含有过多的脂肪，使得中学生的肥胖问题异常严峻，甚至可能会影响到以后的征兵问题。36C推理判断题。全文都在谈论由于美国学校午餐含有太多的脂肪而导致美国征兵面临很大的威胁。故答案选C。37B词义猜测题。根据下段“When over a quarter of young adults are too fat to fight, we need to take notice”，可以看出obesity的含义应该是“肥胖”。38B细节理解题。根据第七段中的“many recruits were rejected because of stunted growth and inadequate nutrition.”一句可知：在二战期间，征兵难是因为很多青年营养不良。39A 主旨大意题。纵观全文尤其是文章首段“School lunchesnational security threat.”可知选A。7
