Mum just pushed harder，each swipe（拖一下）of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall．I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book．
After a long time Mum came back．Her eyes were shining．She quickly put the mop back and took my hand．As we turned to go out of the door，Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said，"Thank you．"
Outside，Mum told me，"Dagmar is fine．No fever．"
"You saw her，Mum？"
"Of course．I told her about the hospital rules，and she will not expect us until tomorrow．Dad will stop worrying as well．It's a fine hospital．But such floors!A mop is no good．You need a brush．"

分析 文章講述作者和媽媽去醫(yī)院看望姐姐，但是因?yàn)獒t(yī)院的規(guī)定不允許，媽媽只好裝成是清潔工，進(jìn)入病房探望

解答 1．答案  C  推理題：這道題要求讀者判斷"媽媽"從一間小房間拿拖把的真正意圖是什么．應(yīng)該說除了 D 選項(xiàng)與文段的信息完全無關(guān)外，其它三個(gè)選項(xiàng)相互都有一定的干擾性，但只要我們注意到文段所敘述的事件的背景是在一家醫(yī)院，再結(jié)合文段末尾作者與母親之間的對(duì)話，就不難判斷該題的正確答案是 C 選項(xiàng)．
2．答案  D推理題：根據(jù)第二段的句子："Yes，I'm glad they've finally decided to clean them，"thenurse answered．She looked at Mum strangely and said，"But aren't youworking late？"可知護(hù)士以為媽媽是一個(gè)清潔工，所以選D
3．答案 B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．文章講述作者和媽媽去醫(yī)院看望姐姐，但是因?yàn)獒t(yī)院的規(guī)定不允許，媽媽只好裝成是清潔工，進(jìn)入病房探望，故可以推斷出醫(yī)院有嚴(yán)格的探視制度，因此選B項(xiàng)．
4．答案  A推理題：根據(jù)最后一段的句子："Of course I toldher about the hospital rules，and she will not expect us until tomorrow．Dadwill stop worrying as well．可以推斷出Dagmar 是作者，作者的媽媽和爸爸都關(guān)心的人，應(yīng)該是很親密的家人，四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有A符合
5．答案  C 推斷題．作者和媽媽去醫(yī)院看望姐姐，但是因?yàn)獒t(yī)院的規(guī)定不允許，媽媽只好裝成是清潔工，進(jìn)入病房探望可知媽媽很聰明，故選C項(xiàng)．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 我們閱讀故事篇章時(shí)，篇章的語體沒有什么特殊性，但篇章的理解要素比較明確，我們可能閱讀各種語體的故事篇章，但閱讀任何篇章我們需要把握的閱讀要素都是一樣，即：語詞、語句的理解；段落中心、篇章中心的理解；故事情節(jié)的理解；情節(jié)的關(guān)聯(lián)與發(fā)展的可能；從故事中人物的言行推論篇章中人物的觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度和沒有直接表述的事實(shí)和細(xì)節(jié)內(nèi)涵；從篇章推論作者的觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度．

6．"Don't be a dreamer，be a dream DO-ER!"says Jordan Chancy，a full-time American poet．
Born in Alexandria，Virginia，Chancy has devoted his talents to writing poems and books．He firmly believes that he has just as much personality，creativity，and go-getter-ness in him that he decided to go after his wildest childhood dream and that is to be who he is today：a poet with a paycheck．In Chancy's opinion，as a full-time poet，one should get out to meet people and make real friends．What's more，networking ability is necessary and is the strongest base．
When he was young，he read a poem with all evil plot called Mr．H．It influenced him deeply and gave him a good understanding of metaphor（比喻） as a tool for expressing himself with words•When he was 21．he decided to be a poet．He thought he could save the world with his poems and inspire people to start pursuing their dreams and goals again．However，"when I shared my ambitions to be a career poet with some of my old friends，I was discouraged and warned of how fruitless the pursuit would eventually be，"he says．"I think the misconception that people have about my job is that it is not important or truly needed or in demand，but I am doing it with poetry and stories of success and also educating people how to express themselves in the same way．What I do is definitely in demand．Fortunately，99%of the people in my life today are the most loving and supportive people I could ever ask for．

28．What does the quote at the beginning show？A
A．Chancy's determination．    
B．Chaney's talent．
C．Chaney's writing style．
D．Chaney's special too1．
29．What does the underlined word"misconception"mean？A
A．Wrong idea．    
B．Big complaint．    
C．Special interest．
D．Personal preference．
30．What did Jordan Chaney learn from Mr．H．？C
A．Saving the world with poems．    
B．Being a poet in great demand．
C．Expressing himself with poems． 
D．Possessing networking ability．
31．What's the main purpose of the passage？C
A．To share Chancy's ambitions with us． 
B．To evaluate Chaney as a famous poet．
C．To urge us to be dream-doers as Chaney．
D．To ask us to be full-time poets as Chaney．

1．Do you think telling lies，whether a little or a lot，isn't that big of a deal？Well，that depends on the situation．If someone asks，"Does this dress make me look fat？"we might all lie somewhat．We might say，"Of course not．You look great．"Lying to spare someone's feelings is one thing．Lying to destroy someone's character or fame is another．
"What's really terrible is that you can't undo a big lie，"says a minister we'll call Morgan．"I promise if you go house to house to say，‘I feel terrible I wrongly accused my neighbor of stealing，'the lie will spread like a fire fueled by gasoline．You can't call back a lie very easily．"
Morgan goes on to say that lies have hurt people more than guns．
"We have a grandfather in our church whose former son-in-law told people the man treated his own children cruelly，"Morgan says．"To this day，we don't know whether it is true or not．I would tend to doubt it，but I can't take a chance，especially if he is working with young people in our church．"
Disarming someone who lies is tough．It's like disarming someone who's prepared to fire．That's why our society is full of people who are forced to cover up the lies of other people．
"I worked with a man who was stealing money from our employer，"says a man we'll call Fred．"He was so good at lying and doctoring the books （做假賬） that it would have taken an FBI agent to stop him．I worried，‘If I turned him in，and he got out of the trouble，my career at our company would come to an end．'"
Fred says he came up with a plan to drop hints （暗示） to the company owner．"I found printed materials on monitoring possibly dishonest employees．I started mailing them to the company owner without leaving my name．Then one day，over lunch，I told my boss he should have the books checked carefully．He got the hint．"
Fred told us that when the books were checked，the dishonest co-worker tried to blame him for the errors．However，F(xiàn)red told the company owner he had been dropping hints for some time．The boss got the picture．Fred kept his job．The dishonest guy was fired．
Figuring out how to make a liar public takes work．It can be done，but you might have to move at the pace of a turtle．The slower you move，the more control you will have．You have to give others time to take in the truth．
62．The underlined phrase"spare someone's feelings"in Paragraph 1can be replaced byB．
A．destroy someone's feelings       
B．a(chǎn)void hurting someone
C．put someone in a bad mood  
D．express someone's ideas
63．Which of the following can be used to conclude Paragraph 2？A
A．It's no use crying over spilt milk．
B．Every man has his faults．
C．There is no smoke without fire．
D．Pride goes before a fall．
64．How does the author develop this passage？C
A．By listing numbers．
B．By making comparisons．
C．By giving examples．
D．By following order of time．
65．What can we know from the passage？D
A．It was true that the grandfather treated his own children cruelly．
B．It is not difficult to persuade a dishonest man into telling the truth．
C．Fred's boss believed the dishonest employee's words and fired Fred．
D．To make a liar public，we should figure out effective ways in advance．

20．These days we are all conditioned to accept newness，whatever it costs．Very soon，there is no doubt that Apple's tablet （平板電腦） will seem as a vital tool of modern living to us as sewing machine did to our grandparents．At least，it will until someone produces an even smarter，thinner and more essential tablet，which，if recent history is any guide，will be in approximately six months'time．Turn your back for a moment and you find that every electronic item in your possession is as old as a tombstone．Why should you care if people laugh just because you use an old mobile phone？But try getting the thing repaired when it goes wrong．It's like walking into a pub and asking for an orange juice．You will be made to feel like some sort of time-traveler from the 1970s．"Why not buy a new one？"you will get asked．
And so the mountain of electrical rubbish grows．An average British person was believed to get rid of quite a number of electronic goods in a lifetime．They weighed three tons，stood 7 feet high，and included five fridges，six microwaves，seven PCs，six TVs，12 kettles，35 mobile phones and so on．Even then，the calculation seemed to be conservative．Only 35 mobiles in a lifetime？The huge number of electronic items now regularly thrown away by British families is clearly one big problem．But this has other consequences．It contributes greatly to the uneasy feeling that modem technology is going by faster than we can keep up．By the time I've learnt how to use a tool it's already broken or lost．I've lost count of the number of TV remote-controls that I've bought，mislaid and replaced without working out what most of the buttons did．
And the technology changes so unbelievably fast．It was less than years ago that I spotted an energetic businessman friend pulling what seemed to be either a large container or a small nuclear bomb on wheels through a railway station．I asked．"What have you got in there？Your money or your wife？""Neither，"he replied，with the satisfied look of a man who knew he was keeping pace with the latest technology，no matter how ridiculous he looked．"This is what everyone will have soon-even you．It's called a mobile telephone．"
I don't feel sorry for the pace of change．On the contrary，I'm amazed by those high-tech designers who can somehow fit a camera，music-player，computer and phone into a plastic box no bigger than a packet of cigarette．If those geniuses could also find a way to keep the underground trains running on the first snowy day of winter，they would be making real progress for human beings．What I do regret，however，is that so many household items fall behind so soon．My parents bought a wooden wireless radio in 1947，the year they were married．In 1973，the year I went to university，it was still working．It sat in the kitchen like an old friend-which，in a way，it was．It certainly spoke to us more than we spoke to each other on some mornings．When my mum replaced it with a new-style radio that could also play cassette-tapes，I felt a real sense of loss．
Such is the over-excited change of 21st-century technology that there's no time to satisfy our emotional needs．Even if Apple's new products turn out to be the most significant tablets I very much doubt if they will resist this trend．
 
50．When you try getting an old mobile phone repaired，B．
A．you are travelling through time            B．you are thought to be out of date
C．you will find everything wrong             D．you have got to buy a new one
51．Throwing away so much electronic rubbish makes the writer feel quiteA．
A．lost and upset    B．unbelievably fast     C．broken or lost     D．regularly wasteful
52．The example of the businessman implies thatB．
A．the businessman mastered the latest technology    
B．mobile phones used to be quite big just years ago
C．the businessman was a very ridiculous person      
D．the writer failed to follow modern technology
53．The passage is organized in the pattern ofD
A．time and events       B．comparison and contrast    
C．cause and effect      D．examples and analysis
54．Which of the following is conveyed in the passage？D
A．The fast pace of change brings us no good．
B．We have to keep up with new technology．
C．Household items should be upgraded quickly．
D．We should hold on for new technology to last．
