【原文】I have played music for most of my life — about twenty years. My parents had a piano in our house that I would pretend to play as a two-year-old kid. I started taking lessons at the age of ten. I loved to play. I would practice for three hours a day as a kid. As I got older, my teachers and parents wanted me to get serious about playing. So, in high school, I took music classes and played in some concerts to make them pleased. I traveled to other cities to play. The concerts and the traveling were hard on me. I was worried about making my parents proud and being the best I could be. When I left high school and went to college, I stopped playing as much. At some point, I decided not to play the piano anymore. But I never forgot the music. Now I just play for fun. I don’t practice every day, and I don’t have to become the best player anymore. But that’s okay with me.

When I worked in a large city, passing by someone who was homeless wasn’t an uncommon sight. The difficult situation of those I saw touched me deeply.
I felt I must do something, and, as a single mother, I decided to come up with a plan that fitted my limited budget. I began by setting aside five to ten dollars and passing them out to those I met on the street each week.
Though a dollar felt like a small amount, I realized how powerful it was. For me, I recognized that those I passed by were people just like me. Sometimes we would joke a bit and smile together. On some occasions, I was able to give more. I don’t know how and if the dollars helped, but I know that the connections we made did.
One day after I had started this weekly practice, I had saved up enough to buy myself a new winter coat. With it around my shoulders, I realized that my old coat could still be put to use by someone who had little or nothing to protect them from the cold. However, at that moment, I felt inspired to pass on this opportunity for kindness. I turned to the salesman who had helped me, and asked if he would feel comfortable taking my old coat, walking to the corner, and offering it to someone in need. Slightly taken aback, he smiled. “I will as soon as I get a break,” he said. “Thanks for being so considerate.”
I can’t help but feel that my experiences with kindness have moved me to pass it on, and in this way, I feel I’ve helped more than just those I pass by on the street. Kindness touches many hearts, and I am grateful for the way it has touched mine.
24. Why did the author decide to come up with a plan?
A. Because she wanted to increase her limited budget.
B. Because she needed to set aside some bills.
C. Because she always passed by some homeless people.
D. Because she wanted to do something for the homeless people.
25. What did the author think of the dollars she gave to those people?
A. It didn’t make sense.
B. It could help them a lot.
C. It might have been a small amount to them.
D. It brought a friendly connection between them.
26. What do the underlined words “taken aback” in the fourth paragraph probably mean?
A. Surprised. B. Satisfied. C. Upset. D. Frightened.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Helping People Who Are Homeless.
B. My Experiences with Kindness.
C. Raising Money to Help Those in Need.
D. My Weekly Practice of Helping Others.
【答案】24. D 25. D 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【分析】
本文是记叙文。作者讲述了自己帮助一些无家可归的人的经历,给他们捐款,以及送旧衣物等。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的When I worked in a large city, passing by someone who was homeless wasn’t an uncommon sight. The difficult situation of those I saw touched me deeply.(当我在一个大城市工作,路过无家可归的人不是一个罕见的景象。我所看到的那些人的困境深深地触动了我)及第二段中的I felt I must do something, and, as a single mother, I decided to come up with a plan that fitted my limited budget.(我觉得我必须做点什么,作为一个单身母亲,我决定想出一个符合我有限预算的计划)可知,无家可归的人的艰难处境对作者触动很深,所以她觉得她必须为他们做些什么,于是她想出了一个计划。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的I don't know how and if the dollars helped, but I know that the connections we made did.(我不知道这些钱是如何起作用的,也不知道这些钱是否起了作用,但我知道我们建立的联系起了作用)可知,作者虽然不知道那些钱是否能帮上忙,但是她和那些人之间真地建立起了一种友好关系。故选D。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段中的I turned to the salesman who had helped me, and asked if he would feel comfortable taking my old coat, walking to the corner, and offering it to someone in need.(我转向帮过我的售货员,问他是否愿意把我的旧外套拿去,走到街角,把它送给需要的人)可知,作者希望销售员把她的旧外套送给需要的人。结合选项:A. Surprised惊讶的;B. Satisfied满意的;C. Upset不安的;D. Frightened吓坏的。由此可推知,销售员对作者的善意感到惊奇。所以“taken aback”是“惊讶的”的意思。故选A。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段I can’t help but feel that my experiences with kindness have moved me to pass it on, and in this way, I feel I’ve helped more than just those I pass by on the street.(我不禁感到,我的善良经历促使我把它传递下去,这样,我觉得我所帮助的不仅仅是那些我在街上遇到的人)可知,本文的主要讲述了自己帮助一些无家可归的人的经历。由此可知,B项My Experiences with Kindness.(我的善良经历)适合做本文最佳标题。故选B。
【点睛】依据逻辑推理猜测词义:运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式。要求考生具备整合分散、复杂信息的能力,充分利用上下文中相关的词汇并结合具体的语境,从形式和内容上把握语言之间的内在联系,理顺语言之间的逻辑关系,进而达到猜词的目的。在第3小题中,可以根据该划线词所在的上下文语境来推测其意义。如第3小题,根据倒数第二段中的I turned to the salesman who had helped me, and asked if he would feel comfortable taking my old coat, walking to the corner, and offering it to someone in need.(我转向帮过我的售货员,问他是否愿意把我的旧外套拿去,走到街角,把它送给需要的人)可知,作者希望销售员把她的旧外套送给需要的人。结合选项:A. Surprised惊讶的;B. Satisfied满意的;C. Upset不安的;D. Frightened吓坏的。由此可推知,销售员对作者的善意感到惊奇。故选A。

Dogs may help save the day in the Philippines, as they use their noses to smell out survivors buried by Friday’s mudslide (泥石流). The team of dogs arrived in the Philippines from Spain, and this Tuesday they were just beginning their work. Search officials told CNN they hope the recent rain will wash away the smell of rescue teams so the dogs can do their job more accurately.
The dogs were brought in after sound equipment found sounds coming from deep inside the ruins, at a place where a school stood before the mudslide covered it. The sounds could
mean people are still alive under all the mud or it could just be the earth resettling.
On Monday, rescue workers worked at the school site until three in the morning, trying to locate survivors, and they will begin digging again as soon as the dogs think they find someone.
Human teams from the US, Malaysia, and Australia are all trying to help, too. But so far they have yet to locate any survivors. Rescue workers told CNN that an earlier report that 50 survivors had been found was false.
How did all that mud bury the village in the first place? On Friday, 2,400-foot Mt Kanabag turned into a mudslide after two weeks of constant rain weakened it. The mountain crumbled and the mud fell onto the village Guinsaugon, burying the 1,800 people who lived there. Out of the 300 houses in the village, only 3 were not covered by the mud. The village is on a southern Philippine Island called Levte. Rescue efforts have been difficult because the village takes six hours to reach from the nearest airport. Hopefully, the dogs can help their human friends find survivors.
28. According to the search officials’ words in the first paragraph, we can learn that ________.
A. the smell of rescue teams can disturb the dogs
B. the dogs can follow the smell of rescue teams
C. the dogs can’t smell the rescue teams
D. the dogs can tell the smells of buried people and rescue teams apart
29. The main purpose of this passage is probably ________.
A. to show the way to rescue the victims in the ruins
B. to introduce the instruments to save victims in a disaster
C. to tell readers that dogs can smell out victims buried in the ruins
D. to show how to train dogs to save victims in a mudslide
30. How many survivors have been found by the dogs?
A. 50. B. Only a few. C. 1, 800. D. None.
31. The reason why the rescue work wasn’t going smoothly was probably that ________.
A. the rain was heavy
B. so many people were buried
C. it was difficult to reach the village
D. these is little chance to save the survivors
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【分析】
本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了人们利用狗来探测被埋在废墟中的幸存者。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的Search officials told CNN they hope the recent rain will wash away the smell of rescue teams so the dogs can do their job more accurately.(搜救官员告诉CNN,他们希望最近的降雨能够洗掉救援队身上的气味,这样狗狗们才能更准确地执行任务)可推知,求援队人员身上的气味会影响到狗的嗅觉。故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的Dogs may help save the day in the Philippines, as they use their noses to smell out survivors buried by Friday’s mudslide (泥石流).(在菲律宾,狗狗们可以用它们的鼻子来嗅出被周五的泥石流掩埋的幸存者,从而帮助拯救这一天)及最后一段中的Hopefully, the dogs can help their human friends find survivors.(希望这些狗能帮助它们的人类朋友找到幸存者)可知,这篇文章主要想告诉读者,狗可以嗅出埋在废墟中的受害者。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Hopefully, the dogs can help their human friends find survivors.(希望这些狗能帮助它们的人类朋友找到幸存者)可推知,目前还没有发现幸存者。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的The village is on a southern Philippine Island called Levte. Rescue efforts have been difficult because the village takes six hours to reach from the nearest airport.(这个村庄位于菲律宾南部一个叫做Levte的小岛上。救援工作一直很困难,因为从最近的机场到这个村庄需要6个小时)可知,村庄地处偏远,交通不便给救援工作带来不便。故选C。
【点睛】做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确选择。在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。如第4小题,The reason why the rescue work wasn’t going smoothly was probably that ________.救援工作进展不顺利的原因可能是_____。根据最后一段中的The village is on a
southern Philippine Island called Levte. Rescue efforts have been difficult because the village takes six hours to reach from the nearest airport.(这个村庄位于菲律宾南部一个叫做Levte的小岛上。救援工作一直很困难,因为从最近的机场到这个村庄需要6个小时)可知,村庄地处偏远,交通不便给救援工作带来不便。故选C。
D
Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.
If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
Communication begins with the concerns of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and ignore everyone. Even if you just say “Hi” and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.
If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary. It would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达)of information, means of communication such as a letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it's Just by writing a note.
When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse.
This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let the incident go. Communication is the key factor here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
Communication isn’t a one-way deal: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s tell the other person how you feel-listening is the key factor to communication.
32. In the writers view, dealing with parents is__________than with children.
A. more difficult B. easier
C. more uninteresting D. more interesting
33. The main idea of the second paragraph is____________ .
A. the importance of friendship
B. to make your feeling known to others
C. the importance of communication
D. the disagreement between generations
34. The example in this passage proves that____________ .
A. Sophie is very polite to her parents
B. Sophie's parents are willing to listen to her
C. explanation is the best way to solve a problem
D. communication is the solution (解决办法) to misunderstanding
35. All the following statements are correct except ____________.
A. If you don’t agree with others, you'd better let them know
B. It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothing
C. If you are not able to communicate, walk away
D. Communication is a two-way deal
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. C
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。交流与沟通是一个在父母与孩子之间的长久话题,只是在面对时,我们的处理方式往往不够冷静,其实只要相互理解多问一下原因,另一方能够冷静的解释,一切都能解决的,文章中的这个例子就是最好的证明。生活中何常不是如此。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.可知, 如今,与孩子生活和打交道可能是一项艰难的工作,但与父母生活和打交道可能更艰难。所以和父母相处可能会变得更加困难,故选
A。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. 可知,如果说我16年来学到了什么,那就是沟通是非常重要的,无论是你不同意的时候,还是你们相处融洽的时候。所以第二段主要讲的是交流的重要性。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。 根据第六段Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let the incident go. Communication is the key factor here.可知,不用说,她回家晚了。一开始她的父母很生气,但当Sophie解释她为什么迟到时,他们并没有那么生气,也就没再追究这件事了。沟通是关键因素。所以Sophie 的故事来说明交流沟通的重要性。故选D。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段,第三段, 最后一段“With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. Even if you just say “Hi” and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing. Communication isn’t a one-way deal: it goes both ways ”,可知,在任何关系中,你都需要让别人知道你的感受。即使你只是打个招呼,看看他们一天过得怎么样,也总比什么都不做强。沟通不是单向的,而是双向的。所以A,B,D都是正确的。C选项不正确。故选C。

Provide yourself with good nutrition. Depression can affect appetite (食欲). One person may not feel like eating at all, but another might overeat.___37___So eat plenty of fruits and
vegetables and get regular meals (even if you don’t feel hungry, try to eat something light, like a piece of fruit, to keep you going).
Find out troubles. ___38___When you know what’s got you feeling blue and why, talk about it with a caring friend. Talking is a way to receive some understanding. If there’s no one to tell, pouring your heart out to a journal works just as well.
___39___Depression affects a person’s thoughts, making everything seem unhappy and hopeless. If depression has you noticing only the negative, make an effort to notice the good things in life. Try to notice one thing, and then try to think of one more. Consider your strengths or gifts.
Most of all, don’t forget to be patient with yourself. ___40___
A. Look on the bright side.
B. Take action to solve problems.
C. Depression takes time to heal.
D. Proper nutrition can affect a person’s mood and energy.
E. People who are depressed may not feel much like being active.
F. Try to make out any situations that have contributed to your depression.
G. With depression, a person’s creativity and sense of fun may seem blocked.

【解析】
【分析】
本文是说明文。文章主要介绍缓解心情低落的方法:经常锻炼,为自己提供良好的营养,找出麻烦和问题,这样能让自己的心情好起来。
【36题详解】
根据下文But make yourself do it anyway.(尽管如此,还是让你自己去做吧)可知,此处与之形成转折关系。由此可知,E项People who are depressed may not feel much like being active.(抑郁的人可能不太想活动)符合文意。故选E。
【37题详解】
根据上文Provide yourself with good nutrition.(给自己提供好的营养)可知,此处与
nutrition“营养”有关。由此可知,D项Proper nutrition can affect a person’s mood and energy.(适当的营养可以影响一个人的情绪和能量)符合文意。故选D。
【38题详解】
根据上文Find out troubles.(找出问题)可知,此处指找出问题所在。由此可知,F项Try to make out any situations that have contributed to your depression.(试着找出任何导致你抑郁的情况)符合文意。故选F。
【39题详解】
根据下文If depression has you noticing only the negative, make an effort to notice the good things in life.(如果抑郁让你只注意到消极的一面,那就努力去发现生活中好的一面)可知,此处指要看到事物积极的一面。由此可知,A项Look on the bright side.(往好的方面想)符合文意。故选A。
【40题详解】
根据上文Most of all, don’t forget to be patient with yourself.(最重要的是,不要忘记对自己有耐心)可知,此处指排除压抑情绪需要一段时间。由此可知,C项Depression takes time to heal.(抑郁症需要时间来治愈)符合文意。故选C。
【点睛】七选五题型主要考查上下文的理解与推断,虽然文章整体难度一般低于阅读理解,但是却给很多同学造成了很大的心理障碍。七个选项中选五个,比四个选项中选一个,感觉干扰性更大,很大同学在做这个题目时,总有一种眼花缭乱、心烦气躁的感觉,致使往往正确率不高。在这里提醒同学们,首先要克服心理障碍,同时要注意方式方法。其次,注意设空前后的句子,因为这些句子之间是顺承和联系的,所有一定要联系和理解上下文的语境。如第4小题,根据下文If depression has you noticing only the negative, make an effort to notice the good things in life.(如果抑郁让你只注意到消极的一面,那就努力去发现生活中好的一面)可知,此处指要看到事物积极的一面。由此可知,A项Look on the bright side.(往好的方面想)符合文意。故选A。

【解析】
【分析】
本篇书面表达属于应用文,要求写一篇新闻报道。
【详解】第1步:根据提示可知,本篇为一篇新闻报道;2010年4月14日7:49青海玉树地区玉树发生地震。基本情况:1.为当地有历史记录以来最强烈的地震2.
很多人正在睡觉;居民住房大量倒塌;水电供应中断;学校、医院严重损毁3.有2, 698人遇难,270人失踪,12, 000多人受伤4.政府十分关心灾情,表示要尽一切可能帮助灾区人民重建家园。人称使用第三人称。时态应为一般过去时。
第2步:根据写作要求,确定关键词(组),如: earthquake(地震),Yushu in Qinghai Province(青海玉树地区玉树),April 14, 2010(2010年4月14日),be buried under the ruins(被埋在废墟下),be concerned about(关心),rebuild their homes(重建家园)等。
