【題目】My friend Marcus is such a humorous and wise person that he can always think of a way to make everybody happy even when they get into _________ embarrassing situations.

A.aB.anC./

【答案】C

【解析】

句意：我的朋友Marcus是一個(gè)幽默而睿智的人，他總能想出一種使每個(gè)人都快樂(lè)的方法，甚至當(dāng)他們陷入尷尬的境地時(shí)。

考查冠詞。不定冠詞a/an意為“一個(gè)”，和可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)連用，表示泛指的一個(gè)人或者東西。不定冠詞a/an的區(qū)別，單詞開(kāi)頭是輔音音素，前面用a，單詞開(kāi)頭是元音音素，前面用an。/表示零冠詞。根據(jù)題干，空后的名詞situations是名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式，前面不能直接加a/an。故選C。

【題目】 Why would someone decide to stop eating? We know that the body needs food in order to work well. However, many people fast at some time during their lives. Why is this?

Some people fast for political reasons. In the early 20th century, women in England and the United States weren’t allowed to vote. So many women went on fast. They hoped that fasting would bring attention to it. Mohandas Gandhi, the famous Indian leader, fasted 17 times during his life. For Gandhi, fasting was a powerful political tool. In 1943, he fasted to bring attention to his country’s need for independence. For 21 days, he went without food. Another famous faster was Cesar Chavez. In the 1960s, he fasted for three weeks. Why? His goal was to bring attention to the terrible working conditions of farm workers in the United States.

Fasting is also a practice in many religions(宗教). Every year during the month of Ramadan, which is a religious holiday, Muslims(穆斯林) fast from sunrise to sunset. Many Indians fast at special time, and there was also a fasting holiday in ancient China.

Of course, not everyone fasts for political or religious reasons. People sometimes fast just because it makes them feel better. The American writer Mark Twain thought fasting was the best medicine for common illnesses. Whenever he had a cold or a fever, he stopped eating completely. He said that this always made his cold or fever go away. Another American writer, Upton Sinclair, discovered fasting after years of eating too much and headaches. His first fast lasted for 12 days. During this time, his headaches and stomachaches went away. Sinclair said that fasting also made him more alert and energetic.

Choosing to go without food can be very dangerous. However, that doesn’t stop people from fasting for political, religious, or health reasons.

【1】The underlined word “fast” in Paragraph 1 most probably means “________”.

A.quicklyB.go on a dietC.refuse to eatD.lose weight

【2】Mohandas Gandhi fasted in 1943 for ________.

A.a religious holiday for MuslimsB.his country’s need for independence

C.the women’s voting rights in Great BritainD.the equal rights of the black people in America

【3】Which fasting is for health reason?

A.Upton Sinclair fasted for 12 days.B.Mohandas Gandhi fasted in 1943.

C.Cesar Chavez fasted for two weeks.D.Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset.

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Women like to go on fasting for politics.

B.You will be very famous if you fast for religions.

C.Fasting sometimes would be better for your health.

D.You needn’t take any medicine if you fast when you’re ill.

【5】What may be the best title of the passage?

A.Reasons for fasting.B.Ways of fasting.

【題目】 Trying to lose weight can be difficult, and while we all know exercise and diet are both basic needs, which one is more important?

If you had to choose, should you be hitting the gym, or eating salads? There are many ways you can burn a few hundred calories (卡路里): running for 20 minutes, an hour of swimming, or singing your favourite song 23 times. But the point is, it takes time to burn a lot of calories even with most tiring activity - not to mention the time spent on the way to the gym, and then back home to clean up.

Now, compare this to the number of calories in a chocolate bar - which is often over 200 calories. You could either walk for about an hour to burn that 200 calories, or you could simply not eat that chocolate bar. Which sounds easier to you? How about running for 30 minutes every day or cutting out those two cans of soda? Many physicians point out that there is a lot of high-sugar, high-fat, high-calorie foods we could cut from our diet, to see weight loss results more quickly. And studies also show that diet does actually play a bigger role in weight loss than exercise. A survey of 2000 children found that the level of physical activity was not the main reason for their weight. And a study of 3000 adults discovered that cutting down calories was connected to greater weight loss than exercise alone.

Of course, exercise has many health advantages besides weight loss, like slowing the aging process and improving mental health. But at the end of the day, if you expect to lose weight, you’re likely to get more bang for your buck if you focus on your diet first.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案。

【1】The underlined words “get more bang for your buck” most probably means ________.

A.更加合算B.付出努力C.怦然心動(dòng)

【2】From the third paragraph mainly tells us that ________.

A.there is a lot of high-sugar, high fat, high-calorie foods in our daily diets

B.exercise like walking plays an important part in keeping our bodies healthy

C.your diet has a greater influence on your weight loss than exercise

【3】The energy in a chocolate bar ________.

A.is as much as the energy we need for singing a song 23 times

B.may be burnt by walking for about half an hour

C.should not be added to a diet when you want to lose weight

【4】Which of following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.A survey of 3000 children found out that cutting down calories is more important

B.Exercise has many health advantages besides helping us lose weight

C.In fact, exercise is not needed when we want to lose weight

【5】Which of the following would you choose as the title of the passage?

A.Exercise VS DietB.How To Lose WeightC.Different diets

【題目】My Understanding of Money

I used to walk around the store with my parents constantly begging for something. I remember the sight of all the colorful bags of chips and candy that I asked my parents to buy for me. I cannot remember a time when I didn't beg for something at the store.
