14．When I was at university，I studied very hard．But a lot of my friends did very （63）little work．Some just did enough to pass the exams．Others didn't do quite enough．Fred Braines was such a student．He spent more time drinking in the （64）Tea House than working in the library．
Once at the end of the term，we had to take an important test in Chinese．The test had 100questions．Beside each question we had to write"True"or"False"．While I was studying in my room，F(xiàn)red was watching TV．Fred usually worried a lot the night before a test．But on that night he looked very （65）easy．Then he told me of his idea．
"It's very simple．There are 100questions and I have to get 50right to pass the test．I will take a coin into the examination room．I haven't studied a Chinese book for months，so I will toss （拋） the coin．In this way，I'm sure I'll get （66）half of the questions right．"
The next day，F(xiàn)red came happily into the examination room．As he sat tossing a coin for half an hour，he wrote down his answers．Then he left，half an hour （67）before the rest of us．
The next day，F(xiàn)red met his Chinese teacher at the school gate．"Oh，good，"he said．"I am sure you have got the （68）results of the test．Did I pass the test？"
The teacher looked at him and smiled，"Ah，it's you，Braines．Just a minute．"Then the teacher reached his pocket and took out a coin．He threw it into the air，caught in his hand and looked at it．"I am sorry，Braines，you （69）ffailed！"

分析 這篇文章主要講述了作者在上大學(xué)的時(shí)候?qū)W習(xí)非常用功，但是有些學(xué)生不努力學(xué)習(xí)，有些人只是為了應(yīng)付考試而學(xué)習(xí)，有的人干脆連考試都應(yīng)付不了，F(xiàn)red Braines就是這樣的一個(gè)學(xué)生，他花費(fèi)在茶館里喝茶的時(shí)間比在圖書館里學(xué)習(xí)的時(shí)間要多，在學(xué)校舉行的一場重要考試中，F(xiàn)red Braines通過拋硬幣的方式來選擇答案，那么他考試過關(guān)了嗎？當(dāng)然沒有．

解答 63．答案：little 結(jié)合上下文推測此處的句意是：當(dāng)我上大學(xué)的時(shí)候，我學(xué)習(xí)非常的努力但是我的一些同學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)不努力．由but轉(zhuǎn)折結(jié)合語境及所給字母提示，可知填副詞little
64．答案：Tea 結(jié)合上下文推測此處的句意是：Fred Braines花費(fèi)更多的時(shí)間在茶館里喝茶而不是在圖書管理學(xué)習(xí)，Tea House構(gòu)成詞組"茶館"，根據(jù)所給字母及語境，可知填Tea
65．答案：easy 結(jié)合上下文推測此處的句意是：但是在那天晚上他看上去非常的輕松，然后他告訴我他的想法．根據(jù)句意可知填easy
66．答案：half  結(jié)合上下文推測此處的句意是：用這種方法我確定我會(huì)得到一半的正確答案． Half of表示"一半的…"結(jié)合語境和字母可知填half
67．答案：before 結(jié)合上下文推測此處的句意是：比我們其他人提前了半個(gè)小時(shí)，他就離開了，結(jié)合語境及所給字母提示，可知填before
在…之前．
68．答案：results 結(jié)合上下文推測此處的句意是：我確定你應(yīng)經(jīng)知道考試的結(jié)果了，我通過考試了嗎？結(jié)合語境和字母提示．故填名詞"結(jié)果"results．
69．答案：failed 結(jié)合上下文推測此處的句意是：對不起，你沒有通過，根據(jù)所給字母及語境提示，可知填動(dòng)詞"失敗/不及格"，這里是一般過去時(shí)，故用failed．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 要做好此類題型，不僅要具備一定的詞法、句法和慣用法等語法知識(shí)，而且還要具備閱讀理解能力、綜合分析能力和運(yùn)用語言知識(shí)的實(shí)踐能力．，緊緊抓住語境所提供的信息，然后明確詞意，詞型，詞的搭配，并注意合乎邏輯．然后逐一寫出答案．

2．Smog is a big problem in many Chinese cities．But it seems that besides wearing a mask （口罩），few of us know what has caused the smog and what to do to beat it．Chai Jing，former news anchor with Chinese Central Television，discussed the questions in her documentary Under the Dome （穹頂之下）．
The 103-minute film was released on major Chinese video-sharing websites on Feb 28．In the film，Chai visits polluted places and talks to officials and scientists．She concludes that burning too much coal and oil are the main causes of PM2.5and smog．
To make things worse，according to Chai，the coal and oil we are burning is of poor quality and doesn't meet the standards （標(biāo)準(zhǔn)） for environmental protection．Therefore Chai says more harmful gas and particles （顆粒） have been produced to pollute the air．To solve the problem，Chai suggests that we should clean our coal and oil or replace（代替） them with cleaner energy such as natural gas．
In her film，Chai also suggested that we should do something to help control smog too．For example，she says we can live a greener life by using more public transportation．Or if we see things that harm the environment，we will try to stop it．In one scene from the film，Chai saw a dirt mound in a building site exposed in the air，she asked the person in charge to cover it．When she saw a restaurant cooking without any suitable filter facilities （過濾設(shè)備），she called the hotline 12369．The restaurant installed the filter a week later．
Chen Jining，the new minister of environmental protection，praised Chai．"This film encourages ordinary people to care for the environment．This is what we need in the future．"

88．Many people in China know the causes of smog，don't they？No，they don't．
89．How long does the film Under the Dome last？It lasts 103 minutes．
90．What are the main causes of PM2.5and smog？Burning too much coal and oil are the main causes of PM2.5 and smog．
91．Why does Chai say more harmful gas and particles have been produced to pollute the air？Because the coal and oil we are burning is of poor quality and doesn't meet the standards for environmental protection．
92．What energy can replace coal and oil to reduce air pollution？Natural gas．/Cleaner energy．
93．What do you think of Chai's film？How should we control smog as an ordinary person？（at least two suggestions）It's meaningful．We should control smog by using more public transportation and using natural gas．．

9．Do American children still learn handwriting in school？In the age of the keyboard，some people seem to think handwriting lessons are on the way out.90% of teachers say they are required to teach handwriting．But studies have yet to answer the question of how well they are teaching it．One study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting．Some teachers are teaching handwriting by providing instruction for 10-15minutes a day，and then other teachers who basically teach it for 60to 70minutes a day-which really for handwriting is pretty much．
Many adults remember learning that way-by copying letters over and over again．Today's thinking is that short periods of practice are better．Many experts also think handwriting should not be taught by itself．Instead，they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas．After all，that is why we write．
Handwriting involves two skills．One is legibility，which means forming the letters so they can be read．The other is fluency-writing without having to think about it．Fluency continues to develop up until high school．
But not everyone masters these skills．Teachers commonly report that about one fourth of their kids have poor handwriting．Some people might think handwriting is not important any more because of computers and voice recognition（識(shí)別） programs．
But Steve Graham at Vanderbilt says word processing is rarely done in elementary school，especially in the early years．American children traditionally first learn to print，and then to write in cursive（連寫體），which connects the letters．But guess what we learned from a spokeswoman for the College Board，which administers the SAT college admission test．More than 75percent of students choose to print their essay（作文、論文） on the test rather than write in cursive．

31．We can learnAfrom paragraph 1．
A．teaching handwriting is a basic requirement in theaching job
B．most teachers prefer to teach handwriting．
C．teachers spend littile time in teaching handwriting
D．a(chǎn) keyboard has taken the place of the handwriting entirely（完全地）

6．One of the most widely accepted assumptions （假設(shè)） in our culture is that if you exercise，youwill lose weight．I exercise all the time，but I still have got fat．Why doesthis happen？
    More than 45 million Americans now belongto a health club，up from 23 million in 1993．We spend some $19 billion a yearon sports．Of course，some people join the health club but never go．Still，asone main study-the Minnesota Heart Survey-found，more of us at least say weexercise regularly．
    However，the number of fat people has risengreatly：a third of Americans are fat，and another third count as overweight．Yes，it's highly possible that those of us who regularly go to the sportscenter would weigh even more if we exercised less．But like many other people，I get hungry after I exercise，so I often eat more on the days I exercise thanon the days I don't．Could exercise actually be keeping me from losing weight？
    People believe that exercise is importantfor weight control is actually rather new．Doctors used to advise not toexercise too much，particularly for older adults who might hurt themselves．Today doctors encourage even their oldest patients to exercise because peoplewho regularly exercise are at a lower risk for most illness，especially heartproblems．They less often develop cancer and many other illnesses，but the roleof exercise in weight loss has been completely overestimated （評(píng)估過高）．
"In general，for weight loss，exercise ispretty useless，"says an exercise researcher．

3．It seems school children all over the world complain about their school food．Cherie Blair，the wife of Prime Minister Tony Blair，said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not improve．So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school？
Japan
High schools have dining halls，which serve everything from noodles to rice，but not harmburgers and chips．Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls，meat or fish，and vegetables．
The United States
A typical （典型的） menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes or roast chicken，fruit and cookies．School lunches must also provide at least one-third of the daily diet allowances （定量） of protein （蛋白質(zhì)），vitamin A，vitamin C，iron and calories．
Australia
Meat pies and hotdogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops．But as the nation pays more attention to children's health，healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus．
Many schools have used a traffic light system．The sale of red-labelled （標(biāo)簽） foods including chocolate and soft drinks，is served only twice a week．Healthier green-labelled foods such as sandwiches，corn and watermelon，however are served every day．
In some schools，students have a choice of up to 89foods to choose from，including popcorn and rice．
South Africa
Most of South Africa's schools do not serve meals at all．Classes end at 1：30pm and students get their own lunches．Many students bring food from home，usually sandwiches．
Fast food and fried food sell the best among students，which has led to a rise in obesity among children．But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different illnesses，some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition （營養(yǎng)）．Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge with vegetables，such as cabbages，onions，beans，carrots and tomatoes．

34．Which belongs to red-labelled food in Australia？B
A．sandwiches    
B．a(chǎn)pple juice       
C．tomatoes           
D．corn
35．What does the underlined word‘obesity'in the last paragraph probably mean？D
A．Allowances．
B．Sadness．
C．Nutrition．
D．Overweight．
36．What can we infer （推斷） from the passage？A
A．A typical menu from a US school is made up of nutrition．
B．Most students in South Africa eat their lunches at home．
C．Many schools in Australia have traffic lights inside their schools．
D．You can have whatever you like in school dining halls in Japan．
37．What is the main idea of the passage？C
A．Food served in the US is the best of all．
B．Schools should try to satisfy the needs of students．
C．Schools serve different foods from country to country．
D．School children all over the world dislike their school food．
