Those fashionable(时尚的) ???41 ????who live in ?????42 ????China also have a chance to ????43 ????a different kind of boarding —snowboarding when the winter ????44 ????puts a stop to most outdoor games. There is so much ????45 ????for winter sports in China that the number of people taking part is expected to grow by ten to twenty times in just five years, ????46 ????between 50 and 100 million by this year. This has led to the ????47 ????of many pieces of?new equipment, and there are now more than two hundred ski slopes(滑雪场)in China, many of which ????48 ????have snowboarding runs. Although most mature people ????49 ????to ski, many of the younger generation prefer snowboarding because they say it is more creative, faster and there are fewer ????50 ???. Of the total number of Chinese people ????51 ????winter sports, the percentage of snowboarders is higher than in any other ????52 ???, and companies who supply snowboarding equipment are ????53 ????to see this trend continue. Suppliers are doing all they can to ????54 ????the sport as a cool and trendy way of ?????55 ????for Chinas youth. 56 ???, snowboarding, like all winter sports, is still very expensive. ????57 ???, it probably will not be long before the other ????58 ????areas of China such as Sichuan, Xinjiang and Yunnan are developed, and as more equipment becomes ????59 ???, prices will almost certainly ????60 ???.

However, after reading The Alchemist,I felt ????48 ????that my current decision isgetting me somewhere.I even shared the book with my friendwho was ?????49 ????about her future.

With a storm just around the corner, they were ????41 ????to get off the mountain. Wedelstedt was ?????42 ????on her left leg at a rocky steep drop when she heard the snap(喀嚓断裂). Every step after that was ????43 ????painful. Before long, she had to stop. As one friend ran down to get help, other hikers(徒步旅行者),all strangers, ????44 ????to help Wedelstedt down the winding narrow track by ????45 ????her weight on either side of her, which proved slow and ????46 ???.“One man was so close to the edge that I could see rocks ????47 ????from where he struggled on them,”Wedelstedt said to the local newspaper, ????48 ????the scene and swallowing hard to hide fear. 49 ???, one hiker, Matt, asked her,“How do you feel about a firemans carry?”Before she knew it, he had ?????50 ????her over his shoulder.“You must be crushed(壓扁)under my weight as Im not ????51 ???,”said Wedelstedt, who had been a ????52 ????college?basketball star, feeling ????53 ????and nervous.

Here is one of the most interesting stories that Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick ever told—a story about the battles won and ????41 ????by a giant(巨樹)of the forest: On the slope(斜坡)of Longs Peak lies the ????42 ?????of a huge tree.

C 从第一段最后一句可以看出,作者的妈妈来到了美国;他爸爸后来才在哈莱姆(美国纽约的黑人居住区)推销保险。 42. A从下一句的selling policies和下一段中的They dont buy insurance可以看出,他最终进入了保险业。 43. D 从后文的Give me Harlem可以看出,能够将Harlem这个地盘交给作者父亲的只能是他的老板。同事没有这个权利;刚入行的保险推销员也不可能有秘书。 44. A 由背景知识,Harlem是纽约的黑人居住区可知,或由第三段的not to look down upon the black可知,选black。 45. C 后面两句话,都是作者父亲的心理活动,所以应该是他在想或在思考。 46. B作者的父亲请求老板将哈莱姆销售区域交给自己。 47. B他拿到哈莱姆地区之后,就在那里推销(sell)保险。 48. D从后文作者在电视(电台)节目中谈起、回忆他的父亲可知,他的父亲1994年去世了。 49. A在节目中,作者给观众(听众)讲述 (told) 他父亲的故事。 50. C作者的父亲经常教他们不要有偏见(open-minded),不要瞧不起(look down upon)黑人。 51. D由最后一段的第一句(The letter made me ...)可知,是收到一位75岁的妇女的来信(letter)。 52. C作者收到的是信,那就应该是写信(write)了。 53. B由下一句的come to dinner at their house可知选house。 54. D从第一段的种族歧视、第三段的父亲教我们不要看不起黑人可以看出,作者的父亲是唯一一个去过她们家吃饭的白人。最后一段中她对待白人的态度,也有提示。 55. A从下句的treated her with kindness和gave her a piece of candy可知他对她很好。 56. B从下文他总是给她糖果,可知他对她很好。 57. C从上下文可以看出,作者父亲很多年以前平等对待黑人的做法,被老妇人记忆至今,所以这封信使作者感动得哭了。 58. A上文说,作者的父亲是去过她们家吃饭的唯一的白人,所以应该是他对她的家人很好。 59. B本句的意思是,她对白人的态度,建立在她小时候对她很好的那个白人身上。 60. D总结全文,作者通过这次经历,学到了一个人生的经验,那就是:不要评判种族的优劣,不抱偏见和友好待人。 (二)作者希望我们不仅对我们身边的人好,而且要对我们的环境也要好。她号召我们从身边的小事如坐公交车或走路等作起都可以为保护环境做出贡献。 41. A 因“善待别人”与“忘记去善待……”是转折关系,故选A项。 42. B 由下然Global warming is quite a big issue ... 可知,是对“环境”不友好。 43. C 根据常识,导致温室气体滞留在地球大气层,从而使地球温度上升、冰川融化的直接原因应是“污染”。“人口(增多)”和“交通(如车的尾气)”是造成大气污染的原因。 44. D 由前文的“温室气体滞留在地球大气层”和下文的“融化冰川”可知,全球的温度“提高”。“降低”和“控制”与事实不符,“改变”不精准,太笼统,也不一定是上升。 45. A 全球的温度提高,融化冰川,会造成极冷或极热等极端的“反常”天气。 46. B 我们可以做简单的事情来保护地球,“阻止”动物的灭绝。 47. D 文首提出要对环境友好,第二段讲污染的危害,本段讲我们可以做些小事来保护地球,使地球成为“更适合”居住的地方。 48. C在you(你)和future generations like your future grandchildren(像你未来的孙子等后代)之间,应是你的“孩子(children)”。 49. B 二氧化碳的排放会“促成,导致”气候危机。 50. A上句说二氧化碳的排放导致气候危机,所以我们需要“采取行动”来减缓或甚至除去这个难题。注意:表示“采取措施”的take measures /steps中,measure /steps是复数,而take action中的action只能用单数。 51. D前后是递进关系。句意:我们现在需要采取行动来帮助减缓“甚至”摆脱这个问题。 52. C 由上句中的many ways可知,这是其中的一些“方法”。 53. B句中this指代“轮流开车、坐公交、骑自行车、步行”,这些都是为你“节省”油和钱的。 54. A根据上文bike, or walk及下文I cant walk可知,选A项, walk。 55. C由上文“如果我不能步行”可知,作者就“乘坐”公交车。 56. A 从上文来看,作者是环保者,作者对“纽约市决定使用混合动力公交车”应是非常“高兴”。 57. D 作为一个环保者,应是鼓励亲友“减少”二氧化碳的排放。 58. D 由前面的條件句“如果每个人都做点什么来共同帮助(减少排放)”可知,我们就能“起到重要作用”。 59. C 由WWW .... 可知这是一个网址,故选C项。 60. B 句意:感谢大家的阅读,感谢你们让我分享,感谢关心。 (三)由于为梦想打拼,作者和好朋友分开了,以为朋友去了英国,再也见不到了。作者突然想到通过网络搜索发现朋友依然在同一国家,于是马上找到原来的电话号码,拨通之后两个人都特别激动,觉得生活太美妙了,这是一个值得庆贺的一个时刻。 41. B 由前文“这是一个值得庆祝的日子,因为我和迈克尔联系上了”可知,之前“失去了联系”,第二段首句We have lost contact since ... 也有提示,故选B项。 42. B 句中It指前句内容,失去联系一年后又得以见面这回事,真是太妙啦!棒极了! 43. A 由后面的“我突然想到一个主意”,可知原来在网上是“无目的地”搜索。 44. D由前后“想起Michael”“见到Michael”可知,本句句意为:既然Ben可以在网上“找出”我的秘密,我也一样可以。 45. A 那时突然想起Ben。 46. C意思是“自高三最后一次通信后,就失去了联系”,下一句的last letter也有提示。 47. D 他在信中提到,他要去英国深造(furthereducation)。 48. B 太忙而没有时间“回复”信件。 49. C 由上文的“准备去英国”和下文“不知道给他写信寄到哪里”可知,作者以为他跟他的朋友在“不同的”国家。 50. B前后是转折关系,选However 51. A 由found out excitedly可知,他“依然,还”在美国。 52. A 由后面的After 3 times calling可知,找到的是家庭“电话号码”。 53.
