The bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly. Just a few minutes later, I heard my daughter shouting, "Dad! The bear is right behind us!" An aggressive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. This one was silent and its ears pinned back — the sign (迹象) of an animal that is going in for the kill. And it was a cold April day. The bear behaved abnormally, probably because of hunger. I held my camera tripod (三脚架) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight. I knew I would not be able to hold it for long. Even so, this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear. The bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod. I raised my left arm to protect my face; the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side. My arm could not move, and I sensed that my bones were going to break. Drawing back my free hand, I struck the bear as hard as I could for five or six times. The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur, trying to push it away. I was actually wrestling (扭 打) with the bear at this point. Then, as suddenly as it had begun, the fight ended. The bear moved back towards the forest, before returning for another attack — the first time I felt panic. Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. My arm was injured, but the outcome for us could hardly have been better. I'm proud that my family remained clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome. 1. The brown bear approached the family in order to _______. A. catch shore birds B. start an attack C. protect the children D. set up a barrier for itself 2. The bear finally went away after it _______. A. felt safe B. got injured C. found some food D. took away the camera 3. The writer and his family survived mainly due to their_______ . A. pride B. patience C. calmness D. cautiousness 【答案解析】 1. B 2. A 3. C 【分析】 本文是记叙文。讲述了作者一家被熊袭击自救的具体过程，告诉我们在遇到危险时，要保持冷静的头脑思 考问题，遇事不要慌张。 【1 题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章 2、3 段 This one was silent and its ears pinned back— the sign (迹象) of an animal that is going in for the kill.和 I held my camera tripod (三脚架) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. 可知熊靠近我们就是为了向我们发动攻击。故选 B。 【2 题详解】 推理判断题。文章最后一段第一句话 Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went.可知它突然离开是因为它知道我们对它没有威胁，它很安全，故选 A。 【3 题详解】 推理判断题，根据文章最后一段最后一句 I’m proud that my family remained clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome.我很自豪当熊袭击我们的恐慌本可以导致不同的结果的时候，我和家人有 着清醒的头脑，说明我与家人在面对危险时是镇静的。故选 C。 B The Pillow At the age of sixteen, I joined a volunteer group with my dad. I went on my first volunteer project in West Virginia. On the night we arrived, we discovered that “our family” was living in a trailer(拖车) that was in poor condition. A crew had been working on it for two weeks, but every time they finished one problem, another surfaced. We decided the only reasonable solution was to build a new house – something unusual but necessary under these circumstances. The family was overjoyed with their new house that was twenty by thirty feet with three bedrooms, a bath and a kitchen. On Tuesday of that week, while we ate lunch together, I asked the family’s three boys, Josh, Eric and Ryan, "What do you want for your new room?" Expecting toys and other gadgets that children usually ask for, we were surprised when Josh responded, "I just want a bed." The boys had never slept in a bed! They were accustomed to plastic mats. That night we had a meeting and decided that beds would be the perfect gift. On Thursday night, a few adults in our group drove to the nearest city and bought beds and new bedding. When we saw the delivery truck coming, we told the family about the surprise. We could hardly contain ourselves. It was like watching excited children on Christmas morning. That afternoon, as we fitted the frames of the beds tog tether, Eric ran into the house to watch us. Too dirty to enter his room, he observed with wide-eyed enthusiasm from the doorway. As my father slipped a pillowcase onto one of the pillows, Eric asked, "What is that?" "A pillow," he replied. "What do you do with it?" Eric continued to ask. "When you go to sleep, you put your head on it,” I answered softly. Tears came to our eyes as she handed Eric the pillow. "Oh . . . that's soft," he said, hugging it tightly. Now, when my sister or I start to ask for something that seems urgent, my Dad gently asks, "Do you have a pillow?" We know exactly what he means. 4. The writer’s first volunteer project was ____. A. working on a poor trailer B. helping a poor family C. donating beds and bedding D. dealing with a housing problem 5. On bearing Josh’s answer, the writer was shocked because _____. A. the family lived in a trailer B. he expected to get some toys C. he didn’t know what a bed was D. the boys had no bed to sleep in 6. From the passage, we can learn that Eric had never seen before_____. A. a trailer B. a truck C. a pillow D. a house 7. By sayg “Do you have a pillow?”, the writer’s father means that _____. A. what they want to get may be unnecessary B. they should not waste money on small things C. they should do more volunteer work for the poor D. what he will buy is not what they want but a pillow 【答案】 . B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【分析】 本文是记叙文。文章讲述作者十六岁时和父亲一起做志愿者时所见所闻。一个家庭的贫穷深深的震撼了他 们：他们从来没有睡过床，从来没有见过枕头。 【4 题详解】 推理判断题。从第一段第三句 we discovered that “our family” was living in a trailer...和第二段的第二句 The family was overjoyed with their new house 可知，作者的第一个志愿者项目是帮助一个贫困家庭。故选 B。 【5 题详解】 细节理解题。从第二段最后一句 we were surprised when Josh responded, "I just want a bed."及第三段第一句 The boys had never slept in a bed!可推知，听到 Josh 的回答，作者很震惊，因为这些男孩们连睡觉床都没有。 出答案 D 【6 题详解】 细节理解题。从第七段至第十段 Eric 与父亲的对话可知，Eric 不知枕头是什么。由此可知，Eric 以前从未 见过枕头。故选 C。 【7 题详解】 推理判断题。根据上文的内容 Eric 一家连枕头都没见过，结合最后一段内容可推断：父亲认为我们要求的 东西只是看起来急需实际，可能并是不必要的。故选 A。 五、七选五 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Develop Note-Taking Skills Speech students are often amazed at how easily their teacher can pick out a speaker’s main points, evidence, and techniques. Of course, the teacher knows what to listen for and has had plenty of practice. But the next time you get an opportunity, watch your teacher during a speech. Chances are she or he will be listening with pen and paper. ___1___ Unfortunately, many people don’t take notes effectively. Some try to write down everything a speaker says. They view note taking as a race, pitting their handwriting agility(敏捷) against the speaker’s rate of speech. ___2____ But soon the speaker is winning the race. The speaker pulls so far ahead that the note taker can never catch up. Finally, the note taker admits defeat and spends the rest of the speech grumbling in frustration. __3___ They arrive armed with pen, notebook, and the best of intentions. They know they can’t write down everything, so they settle comfortably in their seats and wait for the speaker to say something that grabs their attention. Every once in a while the speaker rewards them with a joke, a dramatic story, or a startling fact. Then the note taker seizes pen, jots down a few words, and leans back dreamily to await the next fascinating tidbit(趣闻). By the end of the lecture the note taker has a set of tidbits—and little or no record of the speaker’s important ideas. As these examples illustrate, they don’t know what to listen for, and they don’t know how to record what they do listen for. ____4____ But once you know what to listen for, you still need a sound method of note taking. Although there are a number of systems, most students find the key-word outline best for listening to speeches. As its name suggests, this method briefly notes a speaker’s main points and supporting evidence in rough outline form. By separating main points from sub-points and evidence, the outline format shows the relationships among the speaker’s ideas. ____5____ But with a little effort you will become a better note taker. A. Perfecting this taking requires practice. B. Some people go to the opposite extreme. C. As the speaker starts to talk, the note taker starts to write. D. Taking effective notes usually helps you receive higher grades. E. Most inefficient note takers suffer from one or both of two problems. F. When note taking is done properly, it is sure to keep track of a speaker’s ideas. G. The solution to the first problem is to focus on a speaker’s main points and evidence. 【答案】 . F 2. C 3. B 4. G 5. A 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。文章关于培养记笔记的技能举出了两个错误例子，然后提出了最有效的记笔记方法： 根据关键词列大纲。 【1 题详解】 根据第一段第一句“Speech students are often amazed at how easily their teacher can pick out a speaker’s main points, evidence, and techniques.”（学生们常常惊讶于他们老师能如此轻易地找到演讲者的主旨、证据和 技巧。），可知，记笔记时抓住演讲者的主旨很重要，F 选项“When note taking is done properly, it is sure to keep track of a speaker’s ideas.”（ 如果笔记做得恰当，它肯定能记住演讲者的想法。）切题。故选 F 项。 【2 题详解】 根据第二段中的“Some try to write down everything a speaker says. They view note taking as a race, pitting their handwriting agility(敏捷) against the speaker’s rate of speech.”（有些人试着把演讲者所说的每句话都记下 来。他们把记笔记看成是一场赛跑，把他们的书写灵活性与演讲者的说话速度对应起来。），可知，为了把 演讲者所说的每句话都记下来，演讲者开始讲话时，记录者就开始记录。 C 选项“As the speaker starts to talk, the note taker starts to write. ”（ 当演讲者开始讲话时，记录者就开始写。）切题。故选 C 项。 【3 题详解】 根据第二段中的“Some try to write down everything a speaker says.”（有些人试着把演讲者所说的每句话 都记下来。）和第三段中的“They know they can’t write down everything, so they settle comfortably in their seats and wait for the speaker to say something that grabs their attention... By the end of the lecture the note taker has a set of tidbits—and little or no record of the speaker’s important ideas.”(他们知道不能把所有东西都写下来，所以 他们舒服地坐在座位上，等着演讲人说点吸引他们注意力的话……在讲座结束时，只记录一些趣闻——很 少或根本没有记录演讲者的主旨。)，可知作者在第二段和第三段分别描述了两种相反的极端现象。B 选项 “Some people go to the opposite extreme.”（ 有些人走向了相反的极端。）切题。故选 B 项。 【4 题详解】 根据空格前文“As these examples illustrate, they don’t know what to listen for, and they don’t know how to record what they do listen for.”（ 这些例子说明，他们不知道听什么，也不知道如何录制他们所听的内容。）， 可知，作者列出了两个问题，G 选项“The solution to the first problem is to focus on a speaker’s main points and evidence. ”（第一个问题的解决方法是集中在演讲者的主要观点和证据上。）起到和前文承接作用。故选 G 项。 【5 题详解】 根据空格后一句“But with a little effort you will become a better note taker.”（但是稍加努力你就会成为一 个更好的记笔记的人。），可推断和前一句是转折关系，选项 A“Perfecting this note-taking requires practice. ” （完善记笔记需要练习。）切题。故选 A 项。 【点睛】七选五解题方法之一是：重点阅读空格上下句来判断，因为正确选项必定会与上下句之间有 语义衔接并且逻辑通顺。例如第 5 小题，根据空格下一句“But with a little effort you will become a better note taker.”（但是稍加努力你就会成为一个更好的笔记者。），可推断和前一句是转折关系，选项 A“Perfecting this note-taking requires practice. ”（完善记笔记需要练习。）切题。故选 A 项。 六、完形填空 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight（货物）yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head.

My parents and my teachers saw something in me—the___8___to live—which I didn’t see, and they made me want to___9___against blindness. The hardest____10____I had to learn was to believe in myself. I am not talking about simply the kind of____11____that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone. That is part of it. But I mean something bigger than that: the confidence that I am, despite being imperfect, a real,____12____person; that there is a special place where I can make myself fit. It took me years to discover and____13____this confidence. It had to start with the simplest things. Once a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt. “I can’t use this.” I said. “Take it with you,” he____14____me, “and roll it around.” The words____15____in my head. “Roll it around!” By rolling the ball I could hear where it went. This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought____16____: playing baseball. At Philadelphia’s Overbrook School for the Blind I____17____a successful variation of baseball and I called it ground ball. All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time.
