D．the；a【分析】众所周知，下棋通常是一个一对一的游戏．【解答】a一个，放在辅音音素开头的单词前面；an一个，放在元音音素开头的单词前面；the这个，表特指．根据"playing chess "因此可知在棋类名词前面不加冠词；又根据"one﹣to﹣one "这是一个以辅音音素开头的形容词来修饰game，所以要用a来填空．因此可知这句话的意思是"众所周知，下棋通常是一个一对一的游戏．"故选：B．【点评】首先要掌握这几个词的意思以及这个句子的意思，然后结合具体的题目，就可以确定正确答案．11．（1分）There a river in front of the house，but now it has turned into farmland．（）A．used to have B．used to beC．is used to having D．is used to be【分析】从前房子前面有条河，现在变成了农田．【解答】答案：B．考查there be句型．句意"从前房子前面有条河，现在变成了农田．"．used to 过去常常．be used to习惯于．结合but now但是现在，可知表示转折，前面应该是过去怎么样．因此用used to．there be句型"有"的意思，不再用have了．因此答案是B．【点评】考查there be句型，there be 结构中的谓语动词be在人称和数上应与临近主语一致．要结合语境选择合适用法．注意时态，人称等变化，及与have 的区别．12．（1分）Simon，don't stay up too late，you'll be sleepy tomorrow．（）A．but B．and C．so D．or【分析】西蒙，不要熬夜，否则你明天会困倦的．【解答】根据句意"，不要熬夜，否则你明天会困倦的．"可知考查句型：祈使句+or

to表示去过某地，人已经回来；have/has gone to表示去了某地，人未回来．根据that's why I can't find them now，可知那就是我现在为什么找不到他们的原因，说明了他们两个人现在不在这里，去看电影了．所以应用have/has gone to．Hobo and Eddie是两个人，所以助动词应该用have．故选A．【点评】本题考查的是现在完成时，区分have/has been to和have/has gone to 的意思是解题的关键．16．（1分）﹣________ it is to stay with Andy!﹣Yes．He has so many ways to make us laugh．（）A．What a fun B．How fun

sth对某人来说做某事是…for与表示事物特征特点的形容词连用．of与表示人物的性格，品德，表示主观感情或态度的形容词连用．由形容词hard很难的，可知，用for．第二个空，avoid doing sth避免做某事固定搭配．故选：C．【点评】考查固定句式，在日常学习中要积累一些动词搭配或固定用法，结合语境，选择合适的答案．完成试题．19．（1分）The young man_______ leave

night用一般过去时被动语态was/were+过去分词，改为被动语态的时候加上动词不定时符号to，也就是sb be seen to do sth．故选：D．【点评】被动语态：（passive voice）是动词的一种形式，用以说明主语与谓语动词之间的关系．英语的语态共有两种：主动语态和被动语态．主动语态表示主语是动作的执行者，被动语态表示主语是动作的承受者．被动语态是动词的一种特殊形式，一般来说，只有需要动作对象的及物动词才有被动语态．汉语往往用"被"、"受"、"给"等被动词来表示被动意义．被动语态由"助动词be+及物动词的过去分词"构成．20．（1分）﹣﹣﹣Sally，I went

An interviewer's “body language”andquestions, and the form of an interview are not the samearound the world.If you're at a job interview in Japan, don't look directly into the eyes of the interviewer. It is considered impolite. But if you're at an interview in the US, you should make eye contact(交流) with the interviewer. If you don't, the interviewer may think you are not sure about your ability.In the US and some other countries, interviewers aren't supposed to ask questions about the family and personal information. In most countries, however, personal questions are very common during job interviews.In Germany, your interview might begin with a very short conversation followed by a formal(正式的) interview. In Mexico and many other countries, the whole interview might not be formal.21．In Japan, looking directly into the eyes of the interviewer is ________．A．boring B．impoliteC．humorous D．dangerous22．What is suggested at an interview in the US according to the text?A．Sitting by the interviewer.B．Making eye contact.C．Talking about the family background.D．Asking personal information.23．In ________，a short talk usually begins before a formal interview.A．Japan B．the USC．Germany D．Mexico24．In which part of a magazine can we read the text?A．Science. B．Geography.C．Culture. D．Sports.B“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person's life for the better, which makes everyone a better person.”Mason, a volunteer said.National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity (机会) to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization's expectations (期望)．Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.The following tips can help if you have some of these worries.★Start out slowly. Don't add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone's life.★Choose an organization with the same interests and common values.★Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked.★Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot，so he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization's expectations.★Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.★Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn't work, don't give up and you'll surely find the right opportunity.Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people's lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “…little things can change a person's life.”25．Volunteering can help ________．A．make a decision B．see the world clearlyC．thank other people D．make a person's life better 26．What could be the reason to stop people taking the first step?A．They don't have enough time.B．They are prevented by their families.C．They fear that their abilities are shared.D．They don't expect to become volunteers.27．Which of the following can help people take the first step?A．Starting out quickly.B．Organizing a party.C．Inviting a friend to be with them.D．Joining in a group with different values.28．What is the main idea of the passage?A．To tell people to make changes in their lives.B．To encourage people to start their volunteering.C．How to make great achievements in volunteering.D．How to keep on volunteering whatever happened.CA city in California has got some new buses.

From collecting an Oscar to being chosen as Favorite Movie Actress at the US Kids’ Choice Awards, she has many fans of all ages.But as successful as she is, Lawrence has worked hard to stay natural and down-to-earth(脚踏实地的). She has a cheerful nature, saying things most actresses would keep to themselves. Wearing a beautiful outfit and jewelry at a big event, she told the reporters, “None of this is mine.I have to give it back.” She was also caught on live TV asking one of her co-stars “Is your rash(疹子) doing OK?”As part of the Hollywood “machine”, Lawrence plays the game as much as she has to, but still tries to stay real and think critically. In January 2013, she won Best Actress at the LA Critics Awards. While she was giving her speech, Lawrence refused to read the last part of her speech. She thought the speech written by her publicist didn’t make sense. “The publicist said som ething I don’t understand so I’m not going to say it,” she told the audience.She has also criticized TV shows that promote an unrealistic body image. She said it is wrong to call people ugly or fat. In her opinion, girls should have a healthy relationship with food. “You look how you look. You have to be comfortable. What are you going to do? Be hungry every single day to make other people happy? That’s just dumb(愚蠢的),” she said.21. What’s Lawrence like?A. She is poor and mean.B. She is strict with others.C.

Lawrence’s successBIf you have failed in the past to try to make big changes in life, try again now, one tiny step at a time.Every year it's the same. As December comes to an end, you think about the new year and all the ways you want to improve your life. But as you start to write down your hopes for the new year, you think about the last year. You excitedly write down all the changes you are going to make, but by the end of January those ideas get lost in your busy life.Here's a suggestion: Forget the too big, hard-to-achieve goals and just think about the small ones. “We often think that we have to do everything in b ig steps, even though it's so hard for us to reach it.” said Robert Maurer, who recently wrote the book One Small Step Can Change Your Life. “What we try to do is to begin with such a small step that we can’t find any excuse not to do it.”“Kaizen”, a Japanese word, is used to mean to change behavior and attitudes (态度). During World War II, American factory managers were able to increase productivity by trying small, continuous improvements instead of sudden changes. After the war, the idea was brought to a rebuilding (重建) Japan. It made Japan develop fast. The Japanese called it “kaizen”, which means “improvement”.Maurer studied the idea and did some experiments with it. “Kaizen” could possibly help people succeed in doing everything.25. At the end of December, people usually ___________.A. fail to make big changesB. plan for the last yearC. think about the new yearD. try to lose their lives26.

Robert Maurer studied “kaizen” and found it helpful.B. You can achieve your goals if you are not too busy.C. You can’t find any excuse not to r each a big goal.D. “Kaizen” was brought to Japan during World War II.CClothes are important and necessary to us, but do you know how to choose suitable clothes in a correct way? Here are some ideas for you.When you go shopping and want to buy some clothes, you should think about which kind of clothes you really need and decide how much money you can spend on them. Then look at the labels that are inside the new clothes. They tell you how to take care of the clothes. The label for a shirt may tell you to wash it in warm water. A sweater label may tell you to wash it in coldwater. The label on a coat may say "dry clean only" and cleaning in water may ruin(损坏) this coat. If you do as the directions say on the label, you can keep your clothes looking their best. Many clothes today must be dry-cleaned. Dry cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes, you had better check if they need to be dry-cleaned. You can save money if you buy clothes that can be washed or that are well made. Well-made clothes last longer. They look good even after they have been washed many times.Clothes that cost more money don't always mean they are better made. They may not fit you, either. On the other hand, less expensive clothes may sometimes look better and fit you well.29.
