A man was walking along the street when he saw a woman struggling with a large package(包裹). It was half in and half out of her car.
He was a         kind of man so he went up to the woman and said, "Let me give you a hand with that package. It looks very        ."
"That"s very kind of you," the woman said. "I"m having a lot of         with it. I think it"s stuck."
"Together we"ll soon move it," the man said. "I"ll get into the         and take the other end."
"Oh, that"s very        . Thank you so much," the woman said gratefully. He got into the back         of the car and took hold of the other end of the package.
"Right," he said, "I"m ready." And he began to push with all his        .
For several minutes the man and the woman struggled with the package. Soon they were both red in face and out of        .
"Let"s pause for a minute," the man said. "You"re right. It really is        ."
They paused for a few         to wipe the perspiration from their faces and get their breath back.
Then the man said, "Let"s try again. Are you        ?"
They         took hold of the package again.
"One, two, three!" the man said, and again they         their struggle with the package.
At last, when they were both        , the man said, "I"m sorry, but the package really seems to be        stuck. I don"t think there"s any way we can get it out of the car."
"Get it out of the car!" the woman cried. "You fool! I"m trying to get it in!"

解析

试题分析:本文讲述了一个简短的故事:一个热心的男人主动帮助一个无法搞定包裹的女性,一番努力以后才发现原来女性是想把包裹装进汽车,而男人以为对方想把包裹拿下车。原来是一个彻底的误会。
小题1:A 形容词辨析。A乐于助人的;有帮助的;B细心的;C有用的;D有希望的;根据下句Let me give you a hand with that package可知他看见这个女的很费力地和包裹较劲,所以他很热心的提供帮助,说明他是一个乐意助人的人。故A正确。
小题2:C 形容词辨析。A大;B小;C重;D轻;她无法把包裹放进车里,是因为这个包裹太重了,她弄不动。
小题3:B 名词辨析。A问题;B麻烦,困扰;C疼痛,痛苦;D担心;have some trouble with sth做某事有困难;本句是指她很难把这个包裹放进车里,好像包裹被卡住了。
小题4:D 上下文串联。根据第一段最后一句It was half in and half out of her car可知她是想把包裹放进车子。所以这个男的提出他到车子里面去抓住包裹的另外一端。
小题5:A 形容词辨析。A明智的,合乎情理的;B有趣的;C可能;D令人感动的;这个女人认为这个男的提出的方法很好,sensiblle明智的,是对他这种做法的评价。
小题6:C 名词辨析。A汽车;B盒子;C位置;D椅子;他进入车子的后座抓住了包裹的另外一端。因为上一句他提出进入汽车,所以本句指他到汽车的后座上了。
小题7:B 名词辨析。A权利,电力;B力气,优点;C手;D胳膊;他准备好了,要用全身的力气来推这个包裹。
小题8:D 固定搭配。Out of breath上气不接下气;根据10空后get their breath back.可知他们用尽全力也没有把包裹弄好,而且自己还上气不接下气,搞得很累。
小题9:A 上下文串联。根据第三空后I think it"s stuck."可知这个女人认为包裹被卡住了,现在两个人都没有搞定,这个男人也认为包裹被卡住了。
小题10:C 名词辨析。A时期,时代;B小时;C一会,一刻;D天;因为之前用尽全身之力也没用搞定,所以他们休息了一会。不会是ABD,时间都太长了。只会是moment合理。
小题11:B 形容词辨析。A令人满意的; B准备好了;C好的;D正确的;右边的;男人说:让我们再试一次,你准备好了吗?这是两人准备再次努力之前所说的话。
小题12:A 上下文串联。文章一直提出只有这;两个人在处理这个包裹,所以使用both表示两者都;all表示三者或三者以上;each每一个;every是一个形容词。两个人都抓住这个包裹。
小题13:D 动词辨析。A停止;B保持;C暂停;D继续;他们继续努力搞定这个包裹。
小题14:C 形容词辨析。A有趣的;B兴奋的;C疲惫的;D令人惊讶的;最后当他们都筋疲力尽的时候,男人说这个包裹真地被完全地卡住了。
小题15:B 副词辨析。A大部分地;B完全地;C几乎;D伟大地;男人说这个包裹真地被完全地卡住了。没有办法把他弄到车外。实际上女的是想把这个包裹弄进车子。他们的失败是因为他们没有搞清具体情况。

Three men were travelling across the desert when their car broke down. There were no other traffics, so their only hope was to walk.
Before they set off, they looked around in the car for useful things to take with them. One of the men took a bottle of whisky. Another took an umbrella. The third unscrewed a door from the car and carried that.
After they had been walking for almost a day, they came across a camel caravan travelling towards them.
“Let’s try to join the caravan,” one of the men said. “It’s going the wrong way but we’ll be safer than if we keep on alone across the desert.”
The other s agreed, so they asked the leader of the caravan for permission to join it.
“You can join the caravan only if you answer three questions,” he said. He pointed to the first man’s bottle. “What is that and why are you carrying it?” he asked.
“It’s a bottle of whisky. I decided to carry it with me so that if I feel miserable and want to give up, I can get drunk, cheer myself up and then keep on walking.”
“Very sensible,” the leader of the caravan said. Then he pointed to the next man and his umbrella.
“It hasn’t rained in the desert for many years,” he said. “Why are you carrying an umbrella?”
“I don’t want to get heat exhaustion,” he replied. “The umbrella will give me shade from the sun.”
“Very sensible,” the leader of the caravan said. He pointed to the third man and his car door. “And why are you carrying a car door?” he asked him.

Nelson Mandela is respected and admired across the world. And to South Africans he is a superstar. He is a hero who shocked the world by fighting for peace between races, despite the 27 years he spent in the prison of the South Africa’s white, racist regime(政权)
Mandela, who won the nation’s first all-race elections after the fall of apartheid(种族隔离) in 1944,retired in 1999. But he remains as popular as ever.
“He’s loved by all people, whether you’re white or black, whether you’re young or old,” said Ali Bacher, South Africa’s former cricket(板球) chief.
His popularity has inspired an entire national industry. His portrait has appeared at many places, including on some goods. His face has appeared on a South African coin, a metropolitan(首都)area was named in his honor and some business leaders hope to build a massive, rotating statue in his likeness---- the Statue of Freedom. It would stand taller than New York’s Statue of Liberty.
His popular appeal is similar to that of John F. Kennedy wth US or Winston Churchill in Britain, but few politicians in his times have achieved his level of admiration, said Tom Lodge, head of the political science department of the University of the Witwatersrand.“ Sometimes it isn’t completely appreciated what a skilled performer Mandela has been throughout his political career. He is a very ,very clever man,”However , he is far from perfect.
Most articles for his birthday, which appeared in every major South African newspaper on the day, briefly mentioned that Mandela did have his shortcomings. Then they returned to their flowing praises. “Through the ages, the human race has had its icons(偶像)---- men and women who rose above ordinary people to inspire their generation,” The Mail and Guardian Weekly said. “In our generation, the gods presented us Nelson Mandela.”

I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. At the end I said, “ Son, remember: Be slow and steady, and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance, by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”
I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.
