短文大意：本文是記敘文，作者講述了一次指路的尷尬經(jīng)歷。因?yàn)樽约悍较蚋泻懿�，所以�?dāng)有人問路時，作者總是拒絕別人。有一次又有一個人向作者問路，作者像往常一樣拒絕了他。但是他隨后就意識到那個地方正是他工作的地方，可已經(jīng)來不及了。當(dāng)作者在辦公室里見到那個陌生人時，作者感到非常的尷尬。

【1】句意：不幸的是，我是其中之一。

Luckily幸運(yùn)地；Unluckily不幸地；Lively活躍的。根據(jù)“I am one of them我是其中之一”，可知我的方向感也很差，Unluckily符合句意，故選B。

【2】句意：我去過一個地方很多次，但下次我可能還是會在那里迷路。

get lost迷路；be sad傷心的；think about考慮。根據(jù)“I am one of them我是其中之一”，說明作者方向感也差，可知會經(jīng)常迷路，故選A。

【3】句意：我常常繞著圈子走，希望能碰巧走到我要去的地方。

doubt懷疑；decide決定；hope希望。根據(jù)“by chance I would get to the place I was going to靠運(yùn)氣走到要去的地方”，可知心中存有希望，故選C。

【4】句意：現(xiàn)在，我不再羞于向別人問路，但我經(jīng)常從他們那里得到無助甚至錯誤的信息。

directions方向；money金錢；time時間。根據(jù)前文“When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way當(dāng)我還是個小女孩的時候，我從來不敢向陌生人問路”，可知現(xiàn)在敢向陌生人問路了，BC兩項(xiàng)不合句意，故選A。

【5】句意：現(xiàn)在，我不再羞于向別人問路，但我經(jīng)常從他們那里得到無助甚至錯誤的信息。

right正確的；wrong錯誤的；useful有用的。but表轉(zhuǎn)折；helpless無助的，和useful同義；根據(jù)句意可知，get helpless or even wrong information（得到無助甚至錯誤的信息）符合句意，故選B。

【6】句意：有一次在上班的路上，我被一個男人攔住了。

work工作；school學(xué)校；place地方。根據(jù)下文“because I was rushing to meet with someone at my office因?yàn)槲艺s著去辦公室見一個人”，可知是去上班，故選A。

【7】句意：我照例給了他一個答復(fù)。

question問題；reply答復(fù)；example例子。根據(jù)上文“He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building他問我是否可以告訴他去友誼大廈的路”，可知是回答，故選B。

【8】句意：但就在我只走了幾步的時候，我意識到他是在問路到我的辦公樓。

my我的；his他的；your你的/你們的。根據(jù)下文“he was just the one who had asked me for directions他就是剛才向我問路的那個人”，可知是問作者所在的辦公樓，后面兩項(xiàng)不合句意，故選A。

【9】句意：當(dāng)我到辦公室時，我的秘書把那個人領(lǐng)進(jìn)來給我看，他就是剛才向我問路的那個人。

believed相信；showed展示；gave給。根據(jù)“he was just the one who had asked me for directions他就是剛才向我問路的那個人”，可知是領(lǐng)進(jìn)辦公室讓我會見，故選B。

【10】句意：想想看，當(dāng)我們第一次見面時，我是多么尷尬，他又是多么驚訝!

happy高興的；excited興奮的；surprised驚訝的。根據(jù)上文作者的指路，可知對方見到作者本人后會很驚訝，故選C。

完形填空。主要題型有（1）考查詞義辨析：名詞辨析，形容詞副詞辨析，冠詞辨析，介詞連詞辨析等；（2）考查句子時態(tài)，語態(tài)，要根據(jù)語境，選擇正確的時態(tài)和語態(tài)的選項(xiàng)；（3）考查從句（賓語從句，定語從句，主語從句等）；（4）根據(jù)固定句型或短語結(jié)合語境選擇正確的選項(xiàng)。

本文作者講述了自己一次指路的尷尬經(jīng)歷，做題時要知道每一個詞的意義和用法，根據(jù)上下文語境，然后結(jié)合句子結(jié)構(gòu)選擇適合語境或語法的選項(xiàng)。例如小題3，三個選項(xiàng)都是名詞：question問題；reply答復(fù)；example例子，考查名詞辨析。根據(jù)“He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building”，可知那人在問去友誼大廈的路，作者需回答，故選B。

【題目】 How many of you have unfriended(拉黑) someone on Facebook because they said something bad about politics, childcare or food? And how many of you ever hide from someone just because you don’t want to talk to them?

In order to have a polite conversation, we used to follow the advice — make our conversation go around the weather and your health. But these days, with climate change and vaccine (疫苗) problems, those subjects — are not safe, either. Every conversation may lead to a fight.

Pew Research did a study of 10,000 American adults, and they found at this moment, we are less likely(可能) to listen to each other. Depending on what we already believe, we make decisions about where to live, who to marry and even who our friends are going to be. A conversation needs a balance(平衡) between talking and listening, and somewhere along the way, we lost that balance.

Now, part of that is because of technology, such as the smartphones. They are either in your hands or close enough for you to get quickly. According to the Pew Research, about one third American teenagers send more than a hundred texts(信息) a day. And many of them, almost most of them, are more likely to text their friends than they are to talk to them face to face.

There’s a great piece in The Atlantic. It was written by a high school teacher named Paul Barnwell. He gave a communication project to teach students how to speak on a special topic. But he failed to make it and said: “I realize kids spend hours each day connecting with ideas and each other through screens, but they hardly discover their communication skills. It might sound like a funny question, but we have to ask ourselves. Are there any 21st-century skills more important than being able to make a real conversation?

【1】It used to be safe to talk about________in a polite conversation.

A.healthB.childcareC.food

【2】What can we learn from the study of Pew Research?

A.People make their own decisions by listening to others.

B.We probably like talking with friends face to face better.

C.There isn’t a balance between talking and listening now.

【3】About 30% American teenagers send ________ texts a day.

A.more than 1000B.about 500C.Over 100

【4】The last paragraph mainly talks about ________.

A.some communication skills

B.a project by Paul Barnwell

C.a magazine called The Atlantic

【5】What is the best title of the passage?

A.Why not have a conversation now?

B.How can we speak politely?

C.What can we do with smart phones?

【題目】 Two girls, one older and the other younger, became close friends as a result of the same misfortune they met with--a fire made them lose their homes and their mothers. Both of them were disfigured and had several operations on their faces, yet they said they were fortunate enough to be alive.

Girl A（the older one）, returning from the hospital's ICU to her bed, was scared and almost passed out at the first looking like a ghost, as she saw herself reflected by the stainless steel railings around her bed. She said "I met a ghost on the railing. How horrible! I was really terrified, but I didn't collapse（崩潰）completely. When is it that one feels grateful for his or her survival? It must be now like this. Thank goodness! I am still alive."

The first phone call that Girl A gave to Girl B（the younger one）raised a question: "Do you know why I am so glad?" She gave the answer without waiting for a reply, "Because when I got hold of a loop（吊圈）on a bar in the bus to make myself stand like others, I felt very happy that I had a pair of hands."

Girl B's words were also very moving. She replied, "Hey, you know, don't be surprised by what I'm going to say. It was true. Let me ask you first. Do I look pretty? No, of course not. But before 11 years old I was pretty. I had snow-white skin, big eyes and a round face. I was also a wild kid. I think I'd grow up naughty if I was not properly educated. I would fall in love with other boys and become a bad girl, if I hadn't met the disaster. I disliked going to school. I'd prefer playing all day long. If there were not such a fire, I wouldn't have had chances of meeting so many kind strangers that help me to realize how wonderful life is. If there were not such an accident, I would grow into a beautiful lady. But now I am more considerate, grateful, hard-working and independent of others. Such a person as I am today will always be pretty all my life."

We never know what is waiting for us ahead. Yet, we still have the right to choose a positive attitude to face it.

【1】The underlined word "disfigured" in Paragraph 1 means ________?

A.厭惡的B.毀容的C.殘疾的

【2】Why did Girl A almost pass out when seeing herself?

A.Because she couldn't accept the changes on her face

B.Because she was too sad about the death of her mother

C.Because her operation was successful and she felt too excited.

【3】Which of the following statement is TRUE?

A.The older girl gave up hope completely in the hospital.

B.The two girls didn't give up their belief in life and still felt grateful.

C.The younger girl wanted to play all day long after the disaster.

【4】In what order did the following events take place in the story?

a. Two girls talked on the telephone

b. A terrible fire happened.

c. The younger girl hated going to school

d. The two girl's mothers died.

e. The older girl had an operation on her face.

A.b-d-e-c-aB.b-d-a-c-eC.c-b-d-e-a

【5】What's the best title of the story?

A.A terrible FireB.Two Terrified GirlsC.Rise from the Fire
