her brother.He had gone _3_ to the kitchen when my mother heard a voice calling her name from the bottom of the stairs.The voice was _4_ but that was impossible since the only other person in the house was her brother.That was followed by footsteps _5_ the stairs to the top room.A few hours _6_ her brother came up to see what she was doing.She asked him who the girl on the stairs was.He said there was no one in the house.A few weeks later the _7_ event happened.My grandmother was cooking supper in the kitchen.She turned around and two of the chairs were _8_.She pushed them in and went

Duntil答案与解析：本文作者用第三人称的口吻叙述了发生在母亲小时候居住的老房子里的三件令人感到恐怖的事情。1A根据前面的语境Since there were not enough rooms for them可以推测，他们家没有足够的房间，因此母亲的两个姐妹只能共用较大的卧室。share表示“分享，共享”。2C接下来的三段分别讲述了发生在母亲小时候居住的老房子里的三件恐怖的事情。第一，母亲10岁那年，莫名其妙地听见楼下有人喊叫自己的名字；第二，外婆在厨房做饭的时候，几把椅子自动来回移动，当时除了外婆外只有母亲的小妹妹在家；最后，明明听见有人敲门，但是将门打开时，门外却空无一人这三件事都是非常奇怪的事情，故选C。3C由第一段最后一句及本段第三句内容可知，她的哥哥应该是去了“楼下的”厨房。4C根据下文的She asked him who the girl on the stairs was可以分析出，这里指女性的声音。5B根据第一段her brother in a room down the hall and she slept in the top room of the building和本题之后的the stairs to the top room可以判断出，这里指上楼的脚步声。come up在此表示“上来”。6B根据前后语境分析，这里指几小时后，母亲的哥哥过来看母亲在做什么。7B根据第二段的信息词the first和第四段的信息词the last可以判断出，此处应该讲的是第二个令人胆战心惊的故事。8A由下文About ten minutes later she turned around and three of the chairs were pulled out一句可推知此题答案。pull out 拉出。9C根据前文My grandmother was cooking supper in the kitchen可以推测出，这里指外婆将两把椅子塞进去后又回去做饭。因此cooking符合语境和逻辑。10C根据后面的语境because only my mothers little sister was home at the time可知，除了母亲的小妹妹只有外婆一个人在家，但几把椅子出出进进，自然让外婆感到害怕。故选择C。11D根据故事发展的情节来分析，这里强调之最。因为前面两次并没有吓得他们搬家，而从the one that made them move away推测，这次吓得他们搬家了，因此这是最糟的一次“恐怖事件”。12B根据语境when there was a knock on the door判断，这里指Josie 去开门，answer在此表示“应门声开门”。13A根据后面的信息词some water和信息句when she returned to the living room可以推测，Josie是去厨房找水。14Cgone在此表示“不见了”。15A语境found Sarah sleeping in her bed强调的是结果，因此in the end(最终)符合语境。16D根据后面的语境because Sarah couldnt.the stairs without help because they were very steep可以推测，这是不可能发生的事情。17C根据原因状语从句because they were very steep中的信息词steep(陡峭的)可以知道，这里指Sarah是不可能自己爬到楼上去的。18A由上文可知，Sarah睡到了楼上她的床上，因此这里强调Josie将Sarah带下了楼。19C语境Then the phone rang表明了这里是指我的外婆打电话说我外公去世了。20Abe about to do sth.when.表示“刚要做某事突然”。.阅读理解The unquestioned role of a student is to learn as much as possible through whatever means it takes to acquire knowledge.Teachers and professors are human beings and are therefore not perfect.No one knows the correct answer to every question even when you limit the questions to a certain field of study.Having certain skepticism(质疑)about what they are being taught can help students to make the teachers even better by correcting mistakes and misinformation.Students certainly have a huge role in their own abilities to learn.Teachers should act more as guides along the way rather than try to force each student to learn.The best teachers in the world cannot teach an unmotivated student.If the teacher，for whatever reason，cannot motivate the student，then the student must somehow find a way to motivate himself or herself.One method of doing this is by becoming an active rather than a passive student.The more the student involves himself or herself in the act of studying，the better he or she can learn.One of the best ways to become more active is simply to ask the teacher or professor questions.Students who passively sit in a classroom and take everything that the teacher says for granted are not fully using their mental capacities to learn.Better education comes from teachers who are able to get their students to think about a subject rather than merely absorb a certain amount of information.Having a healthy skepticism can improve a students ability to both think and absorb knowledge in a learning situation.Teachers are human beings and no one is one hundred percent right all the time，even in a classroom situation.Perhaps a teacher would simply unconsciously say the wrong word or pass on some misinformation that the teacher truly believed was correct.A students question could prevent an entire classroom from becoming confused or misinformed.There is of course a fine balance between a student having a healthy skepticism，and just being a downright skeptic.But with the proper attitude toward learning and a little skepticism，both the students and teachers can improve upon the learning process and maximize learning efficiency.1Which of the following is the authors main argument?APassive learning results from passive teaching in class.BA students ability plays a huge role in the learning process.CA healthy skepticism fully depends on students motivation and ability.DA healthy skepticism and proper attitude contribute to effective learning.答案与解析：D主旨题。从文章第一段的叙述可推断出D为正确选项。2Being passive learners，the students _.Ause little of their mental ability while studyingBseldom involve themselves completely in learningCcan hardly tell the right from the wrong in classDsimply ask their teachers questions without thinking答案与解析：B从文章第三段最后一句“Students who passively.not fully using their mental capacities to learn”可推断B为正确选项。3According to the passage，a good teacher should _.Ahelp the unmotivated students patientlyBinstruct students in the learning processCmake no mistakes in the teaching processDanswer all the questions raised by students答案与解析：B从文章第四段第一句“Better education.amount of information”可推断出B为正确选项。4The author will most probably agree that _.Akeeping skepticism to a certain degree is importantBhaving a good attitude can ensure the learning processCtaking everything for granted makes a student learn nothingDa teachers ability can be improved by encouraging doubts答案与解析：D从文章最后一段可推断出。
