一、阅读理解
Mahendra, a former senior officer at the State Bank of India, talks about his disabled and wounded dogs like a father about his children—with the same love, affection, and warmth. He's a wellknown animal rights activist, the secretary at People for Animals (PFA). But nothing explains Mahendra better than his love for animals. It was this love that led him to establish India's first shelter home for dogs living with disabilities.
It all started in 1998 when, while taking a midnight walk, Mahendra came across a very weak dog on the street, whose bones were seen under its skin. Mahendra decided to feed it and for the next couple of days it became the centre of his life, until the night when he found it dead. Since then, Mahendra started providing treatment to all wounded and sick dogs he came across. After some time, somebody told Mahendra about PFA, India's largest animal welfare organization, chaired by Mrs Maneka Gandhi. Mahendra contacted her and, impressed by the work he was doing, Mrs Gandhi asked him to start a PFA chapter in Ahmedabad.
Thus, in 2014, he started the shelter. It took a long time for Mahendra to find land where the shelter could be set up. Finally, Ramesh Bhai Patel, a farmer from a village named Jundal, agreed to give his land for nothing. Along with a team of four doctors and many volunteers, the shelter now has twentyfive dogs that were unable to walk at all when they were brought in. Today, they're slowly healing.
Dogs that have healed with proper treatment are sent back to where they came from if the environment there is safe. However, the shelter will be home to the blind dogs for all their lives, says Mahendra.
The shelter runs on the money coming from Mahendra's own pocket. There have been some financial crunches now and then but Mahendra is determined that no matter what challenges come their way, they'll fight through.
1.From Paragraph 1, what can we know about Mahendra?
A.His affection for

animals.
B.His love for senior people.
C.His care for disabled people.
D.His devotion to protecting his children.
2.Mahendra decided to do something for animals because of ________.
A.the death of a homeless sick dog
B.his meeting with a sick dog one night
C.the encouragement of Mrs Gandhi
D.his contact with the organization PFA
3.In his effort to build the shelter, Mahendra ________.
A.spent much money hiring a land
B.received little support from others
C.got a free land from a farmer
D.was financially supported by the government
4.What does the underlined word “crunches” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Aids.
B.Markets.
C.Services.
D.Difficulties.
参考答案: 1.A; 2.A; 3.C; 4.D
解析: 1.[细节题。根据第1段“But nothing explains Mahendra better than his love for animals. It was this love that led him to establish India's first shelter home for dogs living with disabilities”可知,Mahendra热爱动物。]
2.[推断题。根据第2段可知,一只流浪狗的死亡让Mahendra决定为动物做些事情。]
3.[细节题。根据第3段“Finally, Ramesh Bhai Patel, a farmer from a village named Jundal, agreed to give his land for nothing”可知,Mahendra在找地方给狗建庇护所时得到了一块免费的地。]
4.[词义推测题。根据后文“...but Mahendra is determined that no matter what challenges come their way, they'll fight through”可知,他们时常碰到经济困难。]
二、单句语法填空
1.Every year a flood of farmers arrive in Shenzhen for the moneymaking jobs they ________(promise) before.
答案:have been promised 由主句谓语动词的时态及从句的时间副词before可知,本从句的谓语动词应用现在完成时,且they和promise之间存在被动关系,故填have been
8
promised。
2.________(person), I think he is a very good man, but you may not agree.
答案:Personally 副词personally “就我个人而言”,相当于personally speaking。
3.It won't be long ________we know the result of the experiment.
答案:before It won't be long before ... “不久之后就……”,是固定句式。
4.He was ________(total) uninterested in sports.
答案:totally 应用副词修饰形容词uninterested,故填totally。
5.An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the ________(solve) clearly in mind.
答案:solution 由空前the可知此处应用名词solution “解决方法”。
6.A man stood up and crossed his arms over his head, ________ (signal) that he was strongly opposed.
答案:signalling 句中已有谓语动词stood和crossed,由空前逗号知应用非谓语动词形式,且signal与逻辑主语A man之间是主动关系,且signal和句子谓语stood up及crossed所表示的动作同时发生,因此填signalling。
7.Several problems like those ________(arise) at the power plant so far.
答案:have arisen 由“so far”可知应用现在完成时。
8.The students are looking forward to having an opportunity ________(explore) society for reallife experience.
答案:to explore have an opportunity to do sth. “有机会做某事”。
9.The law needs to be ________(simple).
答案:simplified need to do sth. “需要做某事”,由设空前的be动词及句意可知,此处需用动词的过去分词构成被动语态,故填simplified。
10.We received 400 ________(apply) for the job.
答案:applications 由修饰限定词400可知,此处应填名词,且用其复数形式。

五、七选五
Building Trust in a Relationship Again
Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences. 1 Trust is a risk. But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.
Unfortunately, we’ve all been victims of betrayal. Whether we’ve been stolen from, lied to, misled, or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust. Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore. 2 It’s understandable, but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again, we have some steps you can take to get you there.
• 3 Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being.
• 4 If you’ve been betrayed, you are the victim of your circumstance. But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a "victim mentality". At some point in all of our lives, we’ll have our trust tested or violated.
8
•You didn’t lose "everything".Once trust is lost, what is left? Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle, look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life. 5 Instead, it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.
A. Learn to really trust yourself.
B. It is putting confidence in someone.
C. Stop regarding yourself as the victim.
D. Remember that you can expect the best in return.
E. They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again.
F. This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.
G. Seeing the positive side of things doesn’t mean you’re ignoring what happened.
【语篇解读】文章主要讲述了人们一旦失去了信任,如何再次建立信任。
1.B 【解析】根据上句"信任是我们从过去的经历中获取的一种行为"和下句"信任是一种冒险"可知,此空填B,本句是对第一句话的进一步解释:"信任是信赖某人"。
2.E 【解析】上句"有时,人们简直无法再信任(别人)了";下句"这是可以理解的",由此可推测本句应是解释人们无法信任某人的原因。故填E。
3.A 【解析】由下句"对自己有信心能帮助你做出更好的选择"可知,前一句应是"学会真正信任自己",故填A。
4.C 【解析】由本段最后一句"在我们生活中的某些时候,我们的信任会被检验或打破"可知,此处应填C,意为"不要认为自己是个受害者"。
5.G 【解析】副词"Instead"表示转折。可推测这里应是"看到事物积极的一面并不意味着你无视已经发生的事"。故填G。
