God knows，” he said and_away from her, walked rapidly away.Aturning BturnedCturn Dto turn解析：考查非谓语动词。现在分词短语turning away from her作伴随状语。答案：A15(2010江西重点中学协作体联考)We enjoyed ourselves at the party. Thanks again._ Just drop in whenever you feel like it.AWith pleasure. BIt doesnt matter.CThank you, too.

She was loving, kind and totally devoted to her family.”When she was 16, Barbaras beloved grandma died.Virginia was so sad that it took a long time before she was able to remember her mother with happiness instead of sorrow. Years passed.When she was in her fifties，Barbara needed an operation. “It was a success, and the best part about it was that, while asleep, I saw my grandma！She was young, wearing a white dress. She had beautiful curls in her hair and was dancing to The Tennessee Waltz！” When Barbara awoke, she immediately told a nurse what she had experienced, and the nurse smiled as usual, in the manner she always treated her patients.In less than a month after Barbaras operation, Virginias health became poor. Barbara took care of her mother，and her husband and children took turns watching her as well.One night, Barbara entered Virginias room. “Mom had the most beautiful look on her face，”Barbara said.Virginia was staring at the ceiling, smiling. Then she looked at Barbara and said,“I saw your grandma. She was a young girl wearing a white dress. She had beautiful curls. And she was dancing to The Tennessee Waltz！”Barbara was very surprised. She had never told her mother about her own experience. How could Virginia have known? Virginia died just nine days later. Barbara continued to believe that the three of them would meet again.语篇解读：Barbara、母亲和祖母之间有着深厚的感情，她们之间发生的故事体现了亲人之间的真挚情感。1We learn from the passage that Virginia _.Aliked singing The Tennessee WaltzBhad only one daughterCdied when Barbara was in her fiftiesDwas good at dancing解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“When she was in her fifties，Barbara needed an operation”，第三段“In less than a month after Barbaras operation，Virginias health became poor”和最后一段“Virginia died just nine days later.”可知，答案为C。答案：C2What impressed Barbara most about her operation was that _.Athe operation was successfulBshe dreamed of her grandmother during itCthe nurse took good care of herDher family looked after her well解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“.the best part about it was that，while asleep，I saw my grandma.”可知，答案为B。答案：B 3We can infer that the nurse who smiled at Barbara _.Awas friendly to her patientsBthought Barbaras dream was funnyCdidnt understand Barbaras dreamDhad a similar experience to Barbaras解析：推理判断题。根据第二段“.the nurse smiled as usual，in the manner she always treated her patients.”可推断，那位护士对病人态度比较友好，故答案为 A。答案：A4Barbara was very surprised after hearing Virginias words because _.Aher grandma was very young in the dreamBher grandma also danced in front of her Cshe had had the same dream as VirginiaDVirginia had a clear memory even though very ill解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段“She had never told her mother about her own experience.How could Virginia have known？”可知，答案为C。答案：CBBlackfooted ferrets (雪貂) used to be in big trouble. The creatures are North Americas only native ferret species.By the late 1970s, scientists thought that blackfooted ferrets had become extinct in the wild.Over the years, the number of ferrets has mirrored the number of prairie dogs (草原犬鼠) in the area. Prairie dogs make up 90 percent of what ferrets eat. Farmers have long viewed prairie dogs as pests, and used to kill them. At the same time, diseases swept through the prairie dog community and wiped out many of them.As their food supply declined, ferret populations suffered as well. In the 1970s, scientists tried to raise ferrets and introduce them into the wild after they grew up. Their efforts failed, and biologists thought that the animals had become extinct.Then, in 1981, a farmers dog discovered blackfooted ferrets near Meatiest, a town in northwest Wyoming.State wildlife managers trapped as many of the animals as they could. In total, they caught 18. Scientists from the Smithsonian Institutions National Zoological Park in Washington, DC. then attempted to feed these survivors.The researchers eventually managed to feed seven ferrets. Over many generations, the group and its offspring (后代)have successfully produced more than 4,800 animals.Since then, biologists have introduced ferrets that were raised by people in 12 other places. At least two thirds of these populations seem to be doing well. To know for sure if the reintroductions are working, scientists will have to carefully study the animals and their progress.语篇解读：北美的黑足雪貂曾经濒临灭绝，科学家们想了许多办法使它们的数目得到增加。5In the 1970s，scientists tried to _.Afeed as many prairie dogs as possible for blackfooted ferrets to eatBpersuade the public to keep blackfooted ferrets in their own housesCkill prairie dogs to keep the balance of natureDintroduce blackfooted ferrets into the wild解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句可知科学家让雪貂回到大自然中。答案：D6We can infer from the passage that _.Athe population of blackfooted ferrets will increaseBscientists will fail to save the black footed ferretsCmore blackfooted ferrets will be caught and raised by peopleDscientists are sure that the reintroductions are working well解析：推理判断题。文章最后一段提到研究者成功地培育出4800多头雪貂，然后把这些雪貂引到12个其他的地方，并且有三分之二的雪貂活得很好，因此可推出雪貂的数目将会增加。答案：A7What do scientists have to do if they want to know whether the reintroductions are working?AThey have to raise more blackfooted ferrets.BThey have to ask biologists for help.CThey have to study the blackfooted ferrets and their progress.DThey have to introduce blackfooted ferrets to some more places.解析：细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后一句可知答案为C。答案：C8What does the passage mainly talk about?ABlackfooted ferrets are in danger of dying out.BHow to prevent blackfooted ferrets from disappearing.CWhat local people have done to protect the blackfooted ferrets.DScientists are trying to raise the number of blackfooted ferrets.解析：主旨大意题。文章主要介绍科学家想了许多办法使雪貂的数目得到增加，故D项正确。答案：DCThe Paralympics(残疾人奥运会) is a word formed from the two words “parallel” which means “similar” and “Olympics”，and while they are often in the shadow of their “older_brother”，the energy and excitement of the Paralympics is in everyway a parallel of the Olympic Games.Many of the events held in the Paralympics are similar to those of the Olympics.For example，basketball，fencing，rugby and tennis are all played，but the athletes use wheelchairs.Football，judo，and cycling are events for athletes with visual impairment.Other events included in the Paralympics are variations on familiar sports.For example，a variation of volleyball，sitting volleyball，is played by disabled athletes (for example，people who have lost one or both legs)In this game，players sit on the court rather than stand.Paralympians are a more different group than their Olympic counterparts.For one，the age range is much wider.The youngest Paralympian in 2004 was 11yearold swimmer Qingqing Xu and the oldest was 66yearold sailor David Williams.They are also different in their abilities.On the whole，these athletes prefer to be called “athletes with disabilities”rather than “disabled athletes”they wish to focus more on the word “athlete”than the word “disabled”These athletes wish to be viewed as “having” disabilities rather than “suffering from” or being “afflicted by” them.Tentime Paralympic gold medalist Caz Walton doesnt mind being called a “wheelchairuser”，but she adds，“please dont call me wheelchairbound or confined to a wheelchair.”The Paralympics have been a part of the Olympic Games since 1960，when just 400 athletes competed.In 2004，this number rose to over 4,000，and even larger numbers are expected to compete in London in 2012.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了残奥会的赛事项目，并将其与奥运会作了比较。9The underlined words “older brother” in the first paragraph refer to _.Athe winter Olympic GamesBthe players elder brothers at homeCthe energy and excitementDthe Olympic Games for the healthy players解析：推理判断题。第一段提到残奥会一直处于“老大哥”的阴影之下，接着又说，但是残奥会所带来的激情与活力一点也不输给奥运会。说明这个“老大哥”就是奥运会。答案：D10From the second paragraph we can see the main difference between the Paralympics and the Olympics is _.Athe tools the players useBthe events to be heldCthe number of the playersDthe women to be allowed to take part in解析：推理判断题。残奥会和奥运会的赛事项目基本相似，但是由于残奥会运动员的身体情况而使他们不得不借助于轮椅或者其他辅助设施，因此，二者的不同之处在于是否借助辅助设施。答案：A11According to the passage Paralympians and Olympic counterparts are also different in _.Adreams of successBefforts to winning successCage range and abilitiesDfamily history解析：细节理解题。由第四段可知，残奥会与奥运会有许多不同之处，其一就是残奥会运动员的年龄范围限制很小，其二是残疾运动员的身体情况使得他们的能力和正常的运动员的能力也有所不同。答案：C12From the fifth paragraph we can learn that Paralympian hope for _.Agold medals BrespectCsocial help Dattention解析：推理判断题。这些运动员更愿意被人们称作“有缺陷运动员”，而不是“残疾运动员”。他们希望人们的目光更多的集中在“运动员”上而不是“残疾”上。说明他们希望别人看待他们像看待正常人一样，即希望得到尊重。答案：B.任务型阅读/任务型读写阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。Some people believe that greed and selfishness has become the basis of modern society，and we should return to the old traditions of family and community then we will have a better life.To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion?In this fastpaced world，many values are undergoing major changes.While people traditionally prioritize caring，sharing and generosity in life and work，modern people seem to be more selfabsorbed and selfconcerned.Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh competition of life.They say that it is a jungle out there.To survive，you have to fight with whatever means that come handy.Obviously greed and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas.In a company，employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position，even at the cost of colleagues.We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct.It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences.In spite of common practice，it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness，both of which are not newly invented vocabulary.In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then.But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure compared with their modern counterparts.Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them？There is no fixed answer either.Some people take great pleasurehelping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite.But I personally think that people should not be too selfish.Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship.In conclusion，modern people appear to be more selfcentered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure.However，we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutual
