10、of the English language. It would include every English word possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations(引文)showing how it was used. This was a huge task, so Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies

11、to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England. He gave his address as “Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire，” 50 mil

21、nese preschools，surprisingly little stress is put on academic instruction.In one investigation(調(diào)查)，300 Japanese and 210 American preschool teachers，child development specialists，and parents were asked about various aspects of early childhood education.Only 2 percent of the Japanese respondents(答問(wèn)卷者)

22、 listed “to give children a good start academically” as one of their top three reasons for a society to have preschools.On the contrary，over half the American respondents chose this as one of their top three choices.To prepare children for successful careers in first grade and beyond，Japanese school

23、s do not teach reading，writing，and mathematics，but rather skills such as persistence(毅力)，concentration，and the ability to function as a member of a group.The vast majority of young Japanese children are taught to read at home by their parents.

Love， Li Hua 課時(shí)作業(yè)(四十) Ⅰ.1.D　句意：——老

33、師，我在?！?qǐng)聽(tīng)好。我一直在考慮讓你父母來(lái)學(xué)校，但我想先聽(tīng)聽(tīng)你的意見(jiàn)。have been considering是現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時(shí)，表示從過(guò)去開(kāi)始的一個(gè)動(dòng)作一直持續(xù)到現(xiàn)在，并且還在進(jìn)行。 2．B　考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意：這個(gè)小男孩被最新的電動(dòng)玩具所吸引，站在櫥窗前一動(dòng)也不動(dòng)。句子的主語(yǔ)the little boy與attract構(gòu)成邏輯上的被動(dòng)關(guān)系，故用過(guò)去分詞。to be done表示動(dòng)作尚未發(fā)生。 3．D　考查副詞辨析。此處somehow意為“不知怎的”。句意：他已打算妥協(xié)，可是不知怎的在最后的時(shí)刻他又改變了主意。 4．D　not to mention更不必說(shuō)，不必提及；in addi

34、tion to除……之外；on account of由于，因?yàn)椋瑸榱恕木壒?；regardless of不顧，不管。根據(jù)句意可知D項(xiàng)正確。 5．A　考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。句意：這些天政府發(fā)布了幾項(xiàng)將會(huì)加快制造業(yè)發(fā)展的經(jīng)濟(jì)政策。accelerate意為“加速，提前”； accomplish意為“完成，實(shí)現(xiàn)”； accumulate意為“積累，增加”； approve意為“批準(zhǔn)，贊成”。根據(jù)句意可知A項(xiàng)正確。 6．C　assuming that…“假定……”為固定句型。類似表達(dá)有：providing/supposing (that)… 7．B　考查虛擬語(yǔ)氣。if only“要是……就好了”，后

35、用虛擬語(yǔ)氣。答句句意：要是我沒(méi)對(duì)他說(shuō)那些太嚴(yán)厲的話就好了。表示和過(guò)去事實(shí)相反，故用過(guò)去完成時(shí)。 8．C　考查短語(yǔ)辨析。regardless of 意為“不考慮，不顧及”。 not to mention意為“更別提，更別說(shuō)”；apart from意為“除了”，所以A、B項(xiàng)意思不對(duì)；D項(xiàng)搭配不當(dāng)。 9．A　考查非謂語(yǔ)。此處only to do/be done表示意料之外的結(jié)果；現(xiàn)在分詞作結(jié)果狀語(yǔ)則表示自然的結(jié)果。這里George和tell之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，因此用to be told。句意：戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)后喬治回到家，結(jié)果被告知妻子已經(jīng)離開(kāi)了他。 10．B　考查非謂語(yǔ)。句意：展望未來(lái)，我們希望我們的教學(xué)體

36、系得以改變。look ahead 意為“展望未來(lái)，為將來(lái)設(shè)想”；look around 意為“向四處看”；watch out 意為“注意，當(dāng)心”；D項(xiàng)無(wú)此搭配。 11．C　考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)辨析。句意：——我厭煩了無(wú)休止的考試?！褡髌饋?lái)，David。堅(jiān)持到高考結(jié)束。be fed up with意為“厭倦，受夠了，飽受”。catch up with趕上；come up with提出(想法、辦法等)；put up with忍受，容忍。 12．C　考查不定式的時(shí)態(tài)。句意：據(jù)說(shuō)湯姆最近在設(shè)計(jì)一種新的電腦程序，但我不知道他什么時(shí)候完工。后半句暗示“設(shè)計(jì)”這一動(dòng)作還在進(jìn)行，故用不定式的現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行式。

37、 13．D　句意：臨近的居民都拍手稱贊政府關(guān)于關(guān)閉這個(gè)印染工廠的決定。delete刪除；identify識(shí)別；interrupt打斷；applaud贊賞。 14．A　考查交際用語(yǔ)。從答語(yǔ)中的“Im going up there，too.”可知，答話人認(rèn)為兩個(gè)人都去Appleby是一件極為巧合的事，故用What a coincidence! 15．A　考查獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)。主句主語(yǔ)跟后面狀語(yǔ)部分主語(yǔ)不一致，前后沒(méi)有連詞，說(shuō)明應(yīng)該用獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)。date back to“追溯到……”，一般不用被動(dòng)，它與邏輯主語(yǔ)some (trees)應(yīng)該是主動(dòng)關(guān)系，因此用現(xiàn)在分詞。 Ⅱ.A 這是一篇記敘文。文

38、章敘述了第一本牛津詞典的編寫過(guò)程，以及Minor對(duì)詞典的編寫工作所作出的巨大貢獻(xiàn)。 16．D　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從最后一段的“Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed.”看出A選項(xiàng)是不正確的；從第二段的“Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, ma

39、gazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England.”看出牛津詞典是集體智慧的結(jié)晶；由第一段最后一句中“It would include every English word possible”可知，C項(xiàng)不正確。故選D。 17．C　細(xì)節(jié)理解

40、題。從第三段的“Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray”看出，Minor提供了大量詞匯和引文。故選C。 18．A　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第四段的“Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a booklined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum for the Criminally Insane.”看出，是由于Min

41、or患精神病被關(guān)進(jìn)醫(yī)院里，所以沒(méi)有辦法去牛津。故選A。 19．B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第二段Minor自愿加入編詞典這個(gè)活動(dòng)可知，他對(duì)此很感興趣，與Murray有著共同的興趣，再?gòu)奈恼碌箶?shù)第三段的“Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10，000 submissions in 20 years.”可找到答案。故選B。 20．D　推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章中Minor在患精神病住院

42、期間還堅(jiān)持詞典的編寫工作看出他的不尋常；從文章倒數(shù)第三段的“Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10，000 submissions in 20 years.”看出他的學(xué)者風(fēng)范。故選D。 21．C　主旨大意題。文章一開(kāi)始主要介紹由來(lái)自英國(guó)、美國(guó)和英國(guó)殖民地的志愿者參加牛津詞典的編寫工作，后半部分主要寫編者M(jìn)inor對(duì)詞典的編寫工作所作出的巨大貢獻(xiàn)。故選C。 B 這是一篇講述日本學(xué)前教育的材料，文章指出日本學(xué)前教育的側(cè)重點(diǎn)和對(duì)集體主義的重視，以及教育內(nèi)容的豐富多樣性。 22．C　事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)

43、題。根據(jù)第一段“…the answers provided by Japanese preschools are not the ones Americans expected to find. In most Japanese preschools, surprisingly little stress is put on academic instruction.”可知，美國(guó)人的看法應(yīng)該是日本的學(xué)前教育非常重視專業(yè)技術(shù)知識(shí)的傳授，因此C項(xiàng)是正確答案。 23．D　事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第一段倒數(shù)第二句“To prepare children for successful careers in fi

44、rst grade and beyond，Japanese schools do not teach reading，writing，and mathematics，but rather skills such as persistence，concentration，and the ability to function as a member of a group.”可知，在日本的學(xué)前教育中，老師并不教孩子讀寫和數(shù)學(xué)，而是重視培養(yǎng)孩子的素質(zhì)，教育孩子們學(xué)會(huì)持之以恒、集中精力，并能融入集體之中。所以D項(xiàng)正確。 24．A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段最后一句“…introduced free p

45、lay as a way out for the heavy intellectualizing in some Japanese kindergartens.”可推測(cè)free play是用來(lái)減輕學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)壓力的，所以A項(xiàng)正確。 25．D　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段第四句“…it will increase the childrens chances of eventually being admitted to toprated schools and universities.”可知，孩子們參加universitybased項(xiàng)目可以有更好的機(jī)會(huì)得到高等教育。故D項(xiàng)正確。 Ⅲ.One pos

46、sible version： Hello Peter！How are you going these days? In order to provide us students with an opportunity to exchange books and make better use of our used books, our Students Union held a campus book fair on the afternoon of February 15，2013. At the book fair, students could sell unwanted boo

47、ks, buy books they needed or simply trade books with each other. Like other fairs of this kind, prices were typically very low. Happily, I not only got rid of several books but also bought a few books I really wanted. As far as Im concerned, I like this activity, which is beneficial to us students.

48、 On the one hand, I felt my social skills had been well practiced and improved. On the other hand, this activity also gave us an excellent opportunity to feel a bit of the real world. I wish more events like this book fair would be held in our school. Looking forward to hearing from you! Love， Li Hua 8
