A few days later,Joe came home and(34)C.took $200 from his pocket."I met a man from Vermont,"he said,"who bought one of my(35)A.And he wants to buy more!"
So the two of them were very happy.They didn't have to(36)B money any more.
Then,one day,Joe came home and saw that Delia's hand was wrapped in a bandage (繃帶).He asked her what had happened."Oh,"said Delia."My student,Sally,asked me to make some coffee for her.I dropped the coffee and burned my hand.Sally went,straight to the drugstore (藥店) and got this bandage for me."
"Delia,what have you been doing the last two weeks?"Joe asked.She tried not to tell him,but the tears came."Oh Joe,I couldn't get any students,so I(37)C a waitress in a restaurant.Today,I burnt my hand with hot water.So I can't work anymore.But we'll still have money from the man in Vermont,won't we?"

分析 文章大意:本文講述了Delia是一個鋼琴家而她的丈夫Joe是一個畫家,他們都在各自上各自的課,他們的老師是最好的,所以課程很貴,但他們都熱愛藝術,所以也愿意花錢學,但錢最后花光了,他們再也支付不起了,于是Delia說一個叫Sally的女孩要向她學習鋼琴,并支付50元一小時,Joe想讓Delia繼續(xù)上課,于是說自己去畫畫賣,一個來自Vermont的人要買他很多畫.后來才發(fā)現(xiàn)Delia只是去飯店當服務員了,而Joe也是去藥店工作了.

33.B 考查動詞辨析.A表示停止;B表示繼續(xù);C表示旅行.結(jié)合語境可知此處表示當我掙了足夠的錢了,我就會繼續(xù)的,選B.

17.Three pieces of homework paper tell a pupil's sad story about a mobile phone-obsessed (沉迷) mother on International Women's Day.
A pupil's diary has caused a heat discussion online recently.The diary describes how his mobile phone-obsessed mother paid no attention to his hard work to express his thanks for her on International Women's Day.The boy,a second-grade pupil at a primary school in Taizhou City,Zhejiang Province,wrote the diary on March 8,a day when China holds different activities to show respect and love for women.The boy's teacher,Mrs.Wang,asked students to do something to show their thanks to their mothers--anything from singing a song or just expressing a good wish.
In the diary,the boy wrote that he first told a story to his mother,but she didn't seem to be interested and just fixed her eyes on her mobile phone.Though quite sad,he then said some good wishes that he had recited from the books,yet his mother's eyes still remained on her phone.Seeing that,he chose to massage (按摩) her back."My mother was still looking at her cellphone,without even a sign of a smile on her face,and I felt even sadder/5he wrote in the diary"Heartbroken Women's Day".
His mother told the newspaper she felt ashamed after reading the diary and promised to spend more quality time with her son.A recent interview with students at the school found nearly 70percent say their parents often pay too much attention to their mobile phones.Zhu Huizheng,headmaster of the school,has strongly suggested parents spend more time on family education because they are the first teachers to influence children.
45.How old is the boy who wrote the diary according to the passage?C
A.He is probably 2.
B.He is probably 13.
C.He is probably 7.

7.This is a picture of something I did at my school last year.I wrote out 1,986notes.Each said,"You're beautiful,"and I stuck one to every locker in my school.
It was almost unbearable (難以忍受的) to listen to people put themselves down every day.They would say things like,"I'm ugly"or"No one likes me".To me,that wasn't the(16)C.For at least one day,I wanted everyone to know that someone(17)Dthey were beautiful.
It took me over 6hours to write all of the notes,and an hour to stick them with the help of one other friend.It wasn't my original (最初的)(18)Bto tell people that I had done it,but words got out after I had been called to the Dean's office.They found me through the school's video surveillance system.
After I(19)Ceverything that had happened,there was talk of a possible 3-day suspension from school (暫時停學).When I went back to my classroom,my teacher(20)A me what they said,and I told her.This is how the rest of the students found out.Throughout the whole day,words of the possible suspension circulated (流傳),and a group of students came together and formed a petition (請愿書).They passed the petition(21)Bschool.
In the end,it had over 600signatures (簽名),from both students and faculty.
It amazed me that people would do that for me.For one day,I truly felt(22)B.And for one day,I managed to make every other kid in my school feel beautiful as well.
A few days later,after the incident (事件) was not(23)A,a complete stranger approached me.What she said to me was shocking.
"That day,I was planning on killing myself.I had given up completely on society,but because of you,I didn't.You gave me(24)A.Thank you."
What's more(25)C than that is the fact that today she has become one of my best friends.
