During my last year of junior high school, our teacher, Mrs Debby, gave us a ____1___. I was a hard-working student and I did well in all subjects. I was ____2_____ that I had nailed this test and breezed through (輕松答完) the questions ___3____ I read the last one: ‘What is the ___4____ name of the woman who cleans the school?’
Of course I thought that ___5_____ have been a joke. I saw the cleaning woman every day. She was short and about 50 years old. She had dark hair. But ___6____ would I know her name? I had never talked with her before. In fact, I’d never ___7____ thought about talking to her. I looked at my paper and started to feel rather ___8____. Finally, I handed in my paper, leaving the last one____9___.
Before the quiz (隨堂測驗) ended, one student asked if the last question would be ___10___ in our grades. “Of course,” the teacher said, “In your life, you will meet many people. They are all ____11___. They deserve (理應(yīng)得到) your attention and care, even if all you do is to____12___ and say hello.”
I’ve never___13____ that lesson. Everyone deserves my ___14_____ and I should get to know all of the people ___15____ work and live around me. That is, perhaps, the most important lesson of my life. I also later learned that the cleaning woman’s first name was Hannah.

試題分析:本文講述了作者參加了一次測驗,結(jié)果本來成績較好的他(她)卻沒有回答出最后一道題目,從而引發(fā)的思考。
小題1:根據(jù) I had nailed this test可知,本空應(yīng)該是老師給我們一個測試。Match“比賽”,quiz是“測試”,contest“競賽”,game“游戲”。Test和quiz是同義詞,所以本題選A。
小題2:根據(jù)上下文可知,作者在所有科目上都很優(yōu)秀,故對這次考試應(yīng)該是很自信的。故用confident。所以本題選C。
小題3:根據(jù)題干,本句應(yīng)該是“直到做到最后一題前,我都很順利的完成了前面打的題目。”“直到”是until。所以本題選A。
小題4:根據(jù)文章的最后一句I also later learned that the cleaning woman’s first name was Hannah.可知,本題應(yīng)該選D。
小題5:根據(jù)文意可知,作者本認為那一定是個玩笑。must have been是對過去的事實的肯定猜測。所以本題選B。
小題6:根據(jù)題干,本句的意思是“我怎么會知道她的名字呢?”“怎樣”是how。所以本題選C。
小題7:根據(jù)題干,本句的意思是“我甚至從來沒有考慮過和她說話!薄吧踔痢笔莈ven。所以本題選C。
小題8:根據(jù)上文,作者進行了反思,她因為這個問題而感到內(nèi)疚。Guilty“內(nèi)疚的”。所以本題選B。
小題9:根據(jù)上文作者不會做這個題目,故應(yīng)該是沒有回答最后一個題目,就交上了試卷。所以本題選B。
小題10:count“計算”,value“價值”,amount“總量”,regard“看做”。根據(jù)文章,本句的意思是“一個學(xué)生問最后一個題目是否會算到我們的成績當(dāng)中。”所以本題選A。
小題11:根據(jù)They deserve (理應(yīng)得到) your attention and care,可知,這些人都是很重要的。所以本題選C。
小題12:根據(jù)文章,本句的意思是“即使你做的只是一個微笑或者一個問好。”故用smile。所以本題選B。
小題13:根據(jù)文章的意思可知,作者應(yīng)該是很難忘記這一課的。故用forgotten。所以本題選D。
小題14:根據(jù)上文的They deserve (理應(yīng)得到) your attention 可知,本句話的意思是“每個人都應(yīng)引起我的注意”“注意”是attention。所以本題選A。
小題15:通過觀察可知本句是定語從句,根據(jù)本空的位置可知,本空做主語;而先行詞是the people,故應(yīng)用who。所以本題選B。
點評:這篇短文內(nèi)容比較簡單,理解不難。各小題與上下文聯(lián)系比較緊密,答題中一定要注意聯(lián)系上下文。答完后多讀幾遍,看看是否符合邏輯,適當(dāng)修改。個別小題可以當(dāng)作單獨的詞義辨析題來做,先區(qū)分詞義,結(jié)合語境選出最能使語句通順的答案。

This morning, I went camping along a path in Green Natural Park with my friends. We were happy because it was a sunny day. We were expecting an enjoyable two-day holiday. On the way, we kept singing and making jokes.
However, in the afternoon, when we finished our picnic at one o’clock, it was dark and windy. Soon, there was a shower. Unluckily, none of us brought an umbrella. We ran about but we could find no place to hide.
Twenty minutes passed and it was still raining. There were hours to go before we reached the campsite (野營地). It was even worse that our small compass (指南針) showed that we went to the wrong way. We had lost our way!
We had to make a quick decision as it was raining heavily. Chris said we could set up a tent to hide in, so Mary and Tom helped to set up the tent. Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep us warm. But we were unable to light the fire, as everything was wet. We dried ourselves, chatted and waited inside the tent. At about five o’clock, it stopped raining. We decided to give up the camping trip because all of us had been very tired.
This camping trip may not be very successful but we know each other better. And the most important thing I’ve learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit.

Crazy is our new normal. With two teenage boys and three little boys, our family is restless- to the baseball field, track field (田徑場) and piano lessons. Even though we've limited(限制) each boy's activities and try our best to spare some time for the family, it seems that we're always in a hurry.
"Accept it. Roll with it," my husband, Lonny, says, "It's going to be like this for a while."
He is right. It's likely that life will continue to go forward before it slows down. But I remembered the peaceful, quiet days that our family used to enjoy. I missed long walks through the park when we held the boys' little hands. I wished for lazy Saturday afternoons under the tree in our backyard. I wanted to go back a few years, when busyness was the exception and not the rule(慣例).
One night, after a particularly ful day and evening games, our family gathered on the porch (門廊) for ice cream. Two parents, two teens, and three small boys sat on one old swing and a couple of rocking chairs. We were together, in one place, for a short period of time.
The moon was full. The Mississippi River, flowing past our home, was smooth as glass. I put my own arms around the son who sat on my lap and breathed in deeply his little-boy smell -dirt and sweat. My heart was peaceful and satisfied.
I realized that though crazy is our new normal, happiness is as usual. They may look different from before, but they are still there - even if they're in the form of a single moment on the porch. Maybe I just need the eyes to see.
小題1:What does the writer mainly talk about?
A.Her tiredness of her busy life.
B.Her family's struggle for a better life.
C.Her new feelings about the present life.
D.The pleasure of staying with her children.

A.Busy and boring.B.Busy but happy.
C.Crazy and terrible.D.Normal but exciting.
小題3:Which of the following is NOT true?
A.The writer has five sons.
B.There is at least one child learning to play the piano.
C.The husband likes the present life.
D.The writer used to live a peaceful and quiet life.
小題4:Which of the following might the writer agree to?
A.Happiness is everywhere, but we have to discover it.
B.Life is nothing but sadness, busyness and hurry.
C.Parents should do more for their kids' better life.
D.Life in the countryside is attractive, wonderful, and sweet.

For as long as I can remember, Grandma’s plentiful tomato garden has been a sign of summer’s end. Each September, just as the decreased heat of the sun suggests cooler days, Grandma requests (ask for something) my help in her tomato garden. I’m sure that she cannot pick tomatoes without my youthful eyes and quick mind. She says we need to examine each tomato and agree on its readiness for picking. While Grandma’s request for my help in the tomato garden is always the same, her desire for my help seems to increase each year.
  Grandma has eyes for finding even the tomatoes hidden by undergrowth and other tomatoes. I, however, just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like. I spot what looks like a ripe(成熟的)tomato, head in its direction, and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe. I usually end up watching Grandma and trying to stay out of her way, which seems the only way my eyes and mind are useful.
  There we are, lost in the tomato vines(藤). Grandma’s eyes are always knowing, and they are no different in the vegetable garden. From afar she spots (notice) what looks like a ripe tomato. As she walks toward the garden, she evaluates the tomato for a second time, but from a different angle. I already know it will end up in the basket with the pile of others Grandma has carefully chosen. However, Grandma acts as if she needs a final look to be sure. She calls me to her side, kneels beside the vine while enjoying the warmth of the fading sunlight on her face, and grasps the tomato in her hand. She turns each round, red ball toward the sunlight before disconnecting it from the vine with a half-hearted smile.
  She then looks at me. I nod my head and smile. Grandma assumes I smile in agreement with her tomato selection. I know I smile, instead, at her.
小題1: Why does Grandma ask the author to go to the tomato garden with her?
A.He can help pick more tomatoes.
B.He can learn the hardship of labor.
C.She enjoys staying with him while working.
D.She tries to share tomato harvest with him.
小題2:The second paragraph shows that the writer _________.
A.isn’t good at picking tomatoes
B.doesn’t like to stay with Grandma
C.thinks his eyes and mind are useful
D.is trying to be out of Grandma’s sight
小題3: What’s the best title of the story?
A.Gardening—good for my Grandma.
B.Growing Grandma.
C.Gardening—good for my growth.
D.Picking tomatoes.
