He organizes a humanitarian trip to India to the Sheela Bal Bhavan orphanage and says the three biggest fears families have are health，security and contact.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。年仅16岁的高中女孩Alexia和她的同学及老师一起飞往偏远的发展中国家参加志愿者活动。回来后，她的母亲发现她成熟且独立了。Montreal中学的这项志愿者活动促进了学生的成长和发展。1When hearing the news that her daughter would go on a school trip to Ecuador，Armato was_Aproud and happyBsupportive but concernedCfearful and nervousDexcited but puzzledB解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“She was happy that her daughter could experience something she never did as a teen but was fearful of letting her travel to such a remote part of the world.”可知，Armato对于她的女儿去Ecuador一事感到高兴，因为女儿能经历到她不曾经历的东西，所以她支持她的女儿；但是让一个女孩去这么遥远的地方她又有点担心。故B项正确。2The underlined phrase“from scratch”in Paragraph 4 probably means“_”Ahaving great helpBusing high technologyCending up in failureDstarting from the beginningD解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的内容“with no mechanical cement mixers”以及下一句“They used their hands，shovels and basic tools.”并结合语境可知，他们建造了一所只有一间房间的学校，没有使用机械水泥搅拌机，只是用他们的双手、铁铲和最基本的工具。结合四个选项可知，画线词意为“从头开始”。故D项正确。3According to Alexia，people living in poor conditions are_Aunfortunate and sadBcheerful and sociableCmiserable and strangeDabnormal but happyB解析：细节理解题。根据第三段Alexia所讲的内容中的“They live in very poor conditions but theyre so happy and outgoing.”可知，虽然他们的生活条件很艰苦，但是他们开心且友好。故B项正确。4What would be the best title for the text?AVolunteering Helps Students Grow and DevelopBSchool Trips Make Parents Worried about Their ChildrenCEcuador is the Most Attractive Travel Destination in the WorldDBrave Alexia Dreams to Work in Ecuador One DayA解析：标题概括题。根据第三段第一句“Now that Alexia was home，Armato said she saw her daughters new maturity，greater confidence and independence.”及倒数第二段“Every year，groups of students at Montreal High School like Alexia pack their bags and fly off with classmates and teachers to developing countries where they volunteer for a variety of projects.”可知，每年Montreal高中都有很多学生志愿去发展中国家帮助其开展项目，通过这个志愿活动，他们得到了成长和发展。故A项最能概括本文的主旨，适合做标题；B项仅说明了文章的一个方面，不能全面地概括文意；C、D两项与文章无关。故A项正确。B(2016河北名校联盟监测)Youve probably heard about sports coaches, fitness coaches, voice and music teachers, career counselors, psychiatrists(精神科医师) and other specialists who teach skills and help us cope with daily life.But theres a rapidly growing kind of professionals who do a little bit of everything. She or he is called a“life coach”. People who are at the crossroads in their life, and corporations that want to give certain employees a career boost, are turning to them for help.The idea that one persons success story can change other peoples life for the better goes back at least to the 1930s. Dale Carnegies famous selfimprovement program“How to Win Friends and Influence People”came along soon thereafter.But this new style of life coaches includes more than enthusiastic speakers or writers. They use their own experiences in business, sports, military service, or psychotherapy(心理疗法) to help others make critical life decisions. They often give their approaches a slogan, such as“energy coaching”“fearless living”or“working yourself happy”Dave Lakhani in Boise, Idaho, for instance, works with salespeople to develop what he calls a “road map”. He says an ongoing relationship with a coach is like having a personal fitness trainer for ones career and life outside work.Lakhanis Bold Approach coaching firm also donates some of its time to help people who are anything but successfulincluding battered women and struggling single mothers.But others in the socalled“helpful professions”are not thrilled about the lifecoaching movement. They say that anyone, trained or untrained, can call himself or herself a life coach, and these slick(华而不实的) promoters who mess with peoples life can do more harm than good.【文章大意】当你处于人生的重要时刻时， 当你想让公司里某些职员的事业得以提升时， 你可以求助于人生教练， 他们能帮助你做出人生中的重大决定。 5Which of the following is the best title for the passage?AWorking Yourself HappyBLife Coaches Help with Tough DecisionsCHow to Cope with Daily Life with Life CoachesDThe Lifecoaching MovementB解析： 标题归纳题。 本文主要介绍了人生教练正成为受人们欢迎的专业人才， 他们能帮助那些面临人生重大抉择的人们做出决定。 B项最具有概括性。 6The last paragraph is mainly about_Athe introductions of life coachesBthe disagreements about life coachesCthe effects of life coachesDthe experiences of life coachesB解析： 段落大意题。 根据最后一段中的“They say.can do more harm than good.”可知， 一些人对人生教练持否定的态度， 认为人生教练可能给人们的生活带来的伤害大于益处， 因此选择B项。 7What is the authors attitude towards life coaches?ACautious.BApproving.CCasual.
