Still, Clifford did manage to persuade Warner Brothers with promises that the production would improve on the film.The show mixes various forms of the performing arts including jazz, ballet and tap dancing.The producer also said the musical kept all of the films original music and added some speciallymade pieces for the onstage performance.But can Chinese people understand this American musical? Clifford thought the production would be a big hit because the emotions of the lead roles would be clearly expressed in their movements.1In which page of a newspaper are you likely to read this passage?AAdvertisement. BEntertainment.CMarket. DFashion.答案：B推断题。整篇文章主要在介绍一部音乐剧卡萨布兰卡，读者最可能在报纸的娱乐版上看到该篇文章。故答案是B。2In what way is the musical Casablanca different from the movie?AThe emotions of the lead roles.BThe set of Ricks cafe.CThe music.DThe story.答案：C细节题。从文章的倒数第二段可以看出，这部音乐剧其他地方都没变，只是增加了一些为台上表演而专门制作的乐曲。故答案是C。3Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word“hit”？Asuccess BproductionCbeat Dattack答案：A词义题。通过最后一段与上下文的关系不难猜出它的意思，可能有些中国人不能理解这部美国音乐剧，但因为主角的情感通过他们的舞台动作而清楚地表现出来了，中国人仍然会喜欢它，所以Clifford认为该剧会是一个巨大的成功。故答案是A。B While running for president, Barack Obama often talked about his mother, Ann Dunham, and the lessons she taught him through her work with poor rural communities around the world. Dunham died of cancer in 1995, before any of her grandchildren were born. Now Barack Obamas sister, Maya SoetoroNg, has written Ladder to the Moon, a childrens book that attempts to connect her young daughter, Suhaila, with the grandmother she never knew. The books title was inspired by a picture postcard Dunham gave Maya as a child. It features a painting by Georgia OKeeffe, which depicts a ladder floating against the night sky, with a halfmoon high above it. In the book, little Suhaila asks her mother what her grandmother was like. “Like the moon，” her mother replies. “Full, soft and curious.” Suhaila longs to meet her, and one night, her wish comes true. A golden ladder appears at her window and Grandma Annie invites the girl to come along on a magical journey. “The book is about an evening spent helping others to come up to the moon after natural disasters and religious conflicts，” says SoetoroNg. “And the moon becomes an imagined place to heal and rest until we laugh loudly again.” It seemed natural for SoetoroNg to connect her daughter with Grandma Annie through the moon. Her mother, she says, always loved the moon because it was the same for everybody, no matter where in the world they were. Under the glow of the moon, she recalls, her mother shared her most meaningful tales with her children.Thats how SoetoroNg says she, her brother and President Obama, remember their motheras a great story teller and role model. “Like me, he feels that shes someone who gave us a strong moral compass, and that she gave us compassion and desire to recognize the things that are common to all humanity and reach out across the divides even when doing so is hard，” she says. “Thats something extremely valuable.” It wasnt just her mothers tales that shaped who she and her brother have become. SoetoroNg says what parents do is more important than what they say. Dunham, who had a PhD in anthropology, worked in rural development in some of the poorest places in the world.最近，奥巴马的妹妹Maya SoetoroNg写了一本新书通向月亮的梯子，介绍了一些关于她母亲的趣事。4By writing Ladder to the Moon, Maya intends to_.A. show her mothers strong influenceB. express her mothers loveC. stress the importance of good parentingD. let her daughter know about her grandmother答案：D细节理解题。根据第二段的内容可判断出，奥巴马的妹妹写书的目的是让女儿了解外婆。5The underlined word “depicts” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_”A. draws B. shows C. resembles D. represents答案：B词义猜测题。根据第三段可知，这本书的名字来自玛雅在儿时从母亲那儿得到的一张明信片。那是Georgia OKeeffe的一幅画，画面上有一架梯子漂浮在夜空中，梯子上面有半轮月亮。故depict意为“描绘，描画”。6Maya connects her mother with the moon because_.A. her mother resembled the moon in some wayB. her mother was just as beautiful as the moonC. she loved reading with her mother under the moonD. she used to work with her mother in the open air答案：A推理判断题。根据第四段可知，玛雅认为母亲像月亮一样，丰满、温柔并具有好奇心。故答案为A。7In the childrens eyes, Ann Dunham_.A. was just a common housewifeB. was good at painting and writingC. managed her family with little moneyD. was a great story teller and role model答案：D细节理解题。根据第七段的内容可知，在玛雅和哥哥奥巴马的记忆中，母亲是一位了不起的讲故事的人，也是一个伟大的榜样。.短文填空根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 _1_ You dont need to admire those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time. _2_ When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons，your parents are always taking good care of you; when you get success, people will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you; and when you do something good to others，you will feel happy. _3_ If you notice a bit of them，you can see that happiness is always around you. Happiness is not the same as money. _4_When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy，because you have something else that cant be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly that you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor or you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的)door. _5_ If you take every chance you get，you can be a happy and lucky person.A. All these are your happiness.B. Without money，we can live a happy life.C. Happiness is for everyone.D. She has no chance to go to school.E. It is a feeling of your heart.F. You are happy when you help a helpless man.G. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it.答案：15CGABE.书面表达 Michael是一名美国中学生，在学校里选修汉语。他利用暑假到中国进修，希望进一步了解中国文化。有一天，他看到下面有关成语的漫画，不大明白其中的意思。请你用英语把漫画所表达的故事和寓意写成一段短文，向他解释。 注意：1词数：120左右2参考词汇：bump into(撞上)，hoe(锄头)_参考范文： Once upon a time there was a farmer who worked hard in the fields every day. One day, while he was ploughing the field, he heard a bumping sound. He saw a rabbit lying by the trunk. He picked it up and found that it was a fat rabbit. He thought to himself, “Since it is so easy to get a rabbit like that，why should I work so hard all day long？”He threw his hoe away and lay by the tree every day，dreaming for more rabbits to come. When he finally realized his foolishness and returned to his fields, he found that all his crops were dead. This story tells us that only by working hard not by chance and luck should we wait for expected gains. Or, we should not hope to get rewards without hard work. Remember, “No pains，no gains！”
