When I spent the summer with my grandmot...

When I spent the summer with my grandmother, she always set me down to the general store with a list. Behind the counter was a lady like no one I’d ever seen.

“Excuse me,” I said. She looked up and said, “I’m Miss Bee.”

“I need to get these.” I said, holding up my list. “So? Go get them. Miss Bee pointed to a sign. “There’s no one here except you and me and I’m not your servant, so get yourself a basket from that pile.”

I visited Miss Bee twice a week that summer. Sometimes she shortchanged me. Other times she overcharged. Going to the store was like going into battle. All summer long she found ways to trick me. No sooner had I learned how to pronounce “bicarbonate of soda” and memorized its location on the shelves than she made me hunt for it all over again. But by summer’s end the shopping trip that had once taken me an hour was done in 15 minutes. The morning I was to return home, I stopped in to get some run.

“All right, little girl,” she said. “What did you learn this summer?” “That you’re a meanie!” I replied. Miss Bee just laughed and said, “I know what you think of me. Well, I don’t care! My job is to teach every child I meet life lessons. When you get older you’ll be glad!” Glad I met Miss Bee? Ha! The idea was absurd.

Until one day my daughter came to me with homework troubles. “It’s too hard,” she said. “Could you finish my math problems for me?”

“If I do it for you, how will you ever learn to do it yourself?” I said. Suddenly, I was back at that general store where I had learned the hard way to add up my bill by myself. Had I ever been overcharged since?

1. How did the author first shop in the store?

A. She shopped with her grandmother together.

B. Miss Bee gave her a hand.

C. She asked a servant to help her.

D. She served herself.

2. What can we infer about Miss Bee?

A. Her tricks made the author finish shopping in a shorter time.

B. She neither shortchanged the author nor overcharged her.

C. Teaching kids lessons was Miss Bee’s job at that time.

D. Miss Bee used to learn to pronounce the names of some goods in the store.

3. The author mentioned her daughter to __________.

A. show her satisfaction with her kid’s homework.

B. tell readers Miss Bee’s effect on her.

C. inform readers of her irresponsibility for her kid.

D. express her opposition to Miss Bee.

 

1.D 2.A 3.B 【解析】 试题分析:文章主要叙述作者年轻时去一个杂货店买东西,店主Miss Bee对她的影响。 1.D句意理解和分析。根据“There’s no one here except you and me and I’m not your servant, so get yourself a basket from that pile.”可知Miss Bee说自己不是仆人,所以作者应该是自己完成购物的,故选D。 2.A细节推理题。根据All summer long she found ways to trick me.和But by summer’s end the shopping trip that had once taken me an hour was done in 15 minutes.可知Miss Bee的玩笑让作者短时间内就完成了购物。故选A。 3.细节理解题。根据“I know what you think of me. Well, I don’t care! My job is to teach every child I meet life lessons. When you get older you’ll be glad!”可知Miss Bee之所以那么做是想教会作者一些东西,作者知道她自己女儿问自己作业时才想起Miss Bee女士是为作者好,表明她对作者的影响。故选B。 【名师点睛】 细节题的破解一般采用寻读法,即先看试题,再读文章。对有关信息进行快速定位,再将相关信息进行整合、甄别、分析、对比,有根有据地排除干扰项,选出正确答案。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率,节省了宝贵的时间。寻读法还特别适用于对图形表格类题材的理解。做此类型的题目还要特别注意句子的逻辑关系。英语中有许多功能词,如:表因果关系的because, since, as等;表转折关系的but, however ,on the contrary, on the other hand等等。4. know what you think of me. Well, I don’t care! My job is to teach every child I meet life lessons. When you get older you’ll be glad!”可知Miss Bee之所以那么做是想教会作者一些东西,作者知道她自己女儿问自己作业时才想起Miss Bee女士是为作者好,表明她对作者的影响。故选B。 考点:考查日常生活类阅读

“One thing I enjoy about my job is that I can work on something that is actually active,” says Game McGimsey, an American volcanologist(火山学家). Part of his job includes keeping an eye on Alaska’s many active volcanoes and giving people a heads-up when a volcano might erupt(喷发).

Like most jobs in the science, volcanology requires a lot of education. McGimsey received an undergraduate degree in geology at the University of North Carolina, then landed an internship(实习期) with a geologist at the USGS(美国地质勘探局) whose work field was about volcanoes. After earning a graduate degree at the University of Colorado, McGimsey accepted a job with the USGS and has been with the Alaska Volcano Observatory for 25 years.

Volcanoes can influence the world in ways we might not think about. For example, on Dec.15 1989, a 747 jetliner (a large airplane) flew through a thick ash cloud produced by Mount Redoubt, an Alaskan volcano that hadn’t erupted in 25 years. The ash caused all four engines to die, and the plane’s electronics went dead.

“The plane was within several thousand feet of flying into the mountains below when the pilots got a couple of engines restarted and landed safely in Anchorage,” McGimsey says. It cost nearly $80 million to repair the damage to the plane.

Such situations show just how dangerous volcanoes can be. However, volcanologists know the risks and are prepared to protect themselves.

McGimsey admits, “There is certainly a higher danger level in volcanology than some other jobs. We understand how serious the danger is, and we don’t like taking unnecessary chances. We avoid getting too close to an erupting volcano, because it is not worth injury or death simply to get a rock or a photograph.”

1. Before working for the USGS, McGimsey ________.

A. had been a pilot for 25 years

B. knew nothing about the organization

C. had taught at the University of North Colorado

D. had studied at the University of Colorado

2. On Dec.15,1989, a 747 jetliner ________.

A. had all its engines restarted

B. flew into a volcano in Europe

C. survived an air accident luckily

D. disappeared in a huge ash cloud

3. What McGimsey says in the last paragraph shows his ________.

A. pride              B. carefulness 

C. loneliness         D. doubt

4. What would be the best title for the text?

A. Game McGimsey: a man of his word

B. Game McGimsey: a volcano watcher

C. The eruption of Mt Redoubt

D. Lost land of the volcano

I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the concert last Friday. The advertisement in the paper said you could buy tickets at the theatre box any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since I work from 9:00 to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately, the theatre is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and the theatre is not good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for 15 minutes. By the time I saw one come, there was not enough time left to make the trip. So I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again next day. On Thursday, my luck changed. I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in 20 minutes. When I got there, however, I found a long line at the box office, and I heard one man say he had been waiting for over an hour. Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line, I caught the next bus and headed back. By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi. It was expensive, but it would be worth it to hear the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, however, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold all the tickets.

1. The man learned from _______ that there would be a concert on Friday.

A. the bus stop      B. the theatre box

C. one man in line    D. the newspaper

2. He tried to go to the theatre every day but managed to get there only _______.

A. once           B. three times 

C. twice          D. four times

3.One day the man took _______ to get to the theatre by bus.

A. forty-five minutes      B. twenty minutes 

C. fifteen minutes        D. ten minutes

4. The underlined word “relieved” may best be replaced by _______.

A. pleased         B. surprised 

C. puzzled         D. sorry

The new term is coming! It's time for school. Last term, I make little effort on my English, but my grades were not satisfying. During the holiday, I realized English was of great important and made up my mind to make a progress. My plan goes as follows: for one thing, I will learn new words for at least 20 minutes every morning and recite a l00-words paragraph; for another, I will try to be actively in class. Besides, on my spare time, I will read more books about different topics open my mind. I think I can improve me a lot in this way, because that there is a will, there is a way.
