小题1:C
解析
小题1:A纵观全篇可知,Arran Fernandez并没有去过学校,一直都是爸爸在家教他。此处用了被动语态。equipped“装备”;arranged “安排”;evaluated“测评”;
小题1:D 此处表示,Arran Fernandez下个月开始,将开始在Fitzwilliam College学院主修数学学位。
小题1:A他想解决黎曼猜想。work out“解决”;make out“制定出”;help out“帮助……走出困境”break out“爆发”。
小题1:C 这将会使得他成为自1773年以来最年轻的剑桥大学的学生。
小题1:B festivities“庆典”;lectures “学术讲座”;contests“比赛”; literature“文学”。根据题意,大学的课程主要是学术讲座。
小题1:B already“已经”,常和现在完成时的肯定形式连用。
小题1:A 由后文的I can understand it.可知这些课程并不难。
小题1:B此处表示转折。讲Arran一直以来已经习惯了做教育上最年轻的人。
小题1:C 但是此时此刻,Arran真正在乎的是他能够去剑桥大学
小题1:D 而不是拿自己和别人比。Compare……with 把……和……作比较。
小题1:A 但因为他年纪太小,所以很多的酒精燃料的庆典他都不能参加。because of“因为”;instead of“用……来代替”;except for“除……之外”;as for“就……而言”。
小题1:B pick out“挑选”;join in“参加”;pick up“捡起来”;join up“联结”
小题1:C 上文的酒精燃料的庆典是包含在新生周中的。在英国的大学,学校设定了一个新生周,在新生周里,学生们被要求去参加一系列的社交活动。例如:舞会、泡吧等
小题1:C 由上文的酒精可知,此处应填drinking“喝酒”。
小题1:A 此处考查非限制性定语从句。先行词是Arran,指人,故用who.
小题1:D 当他成为最年轻的被授予普通中等教育证书的学生时,他还只有5岁。
小题1:B award“授予”;
小题1:D 在他通过了数学考试之后,他获得了去剑桥大学的opportunity机会。
小题1:B achieved“获得”;此处指Arran获得了很好的成绩。
小题1:C broaden one’s knowledge “拓展某人的知识”。

very anxious to fit in.
Lunchtime was a pleasant surprise when the girls all crowded around my table. Their chat was friendly, so
I began to relax. My new classmates filled me in on the school, the teachers and the other kids. it wasn’t long
before the class herd(书呆子)was pointed out to me: Mary Lou. Actually she called herself Mary Louise. A
formal, overmodest young girl with old-fashioned clothes, she wasn’t ugly—not even funny looking. Practical
shoes, long wool skirt and a blouse completed the image of a complete herd. The girls’ whispers got louder and
louder. Mary Lou didn’t notice this. After school, the girls invited me to join them in front of the school.
Arms wrapped around her backpack, Mary Lou came down the school steps. The taunting began—rude,
biting comments and disrespectful words from the girls. I paused, then joined right in. My force began to pick
up as I approached her, mean(卑劣)remarks falling from my lips. I even pulled the belt of her backpack and then
pushed her. The belt broke, Mary Lou fell. Everyone was laughing and patting me. I fit in. But I was not proud.
Something inside me hurt.
Mary Lou got up, gathered her books and—without a tear shed—off, she went. She held her head high as a
small trickle of blood ran down from her injured knee.
I turned to leave with my laughing friends and noticed a man standing beside his car. His skin, dark hair
and handsome features told me this was her father. Respectful of Mary Lou’s proud spirit, he remained still and
watched the lonely girl walk toward him. Only his eyes—shining with both grief and pride—followed. As I
passed, he looked at me in silence with burning tears that spoke to my shame and scolded my heart. He didn’t
speak a word.
No scolding from a teacher or a parent could linger(逗留)as much as that hurt in my heart from the day a
father’s eyes taught me kindness and strength and dignity. I never again joined the cruel herds. I never
again hurt someone for my own gain.

Philo Farnsworth was born in 1906 and grew up on a potato farm. As a boy, he loved to learn about science, and he read a lot of science books. When he was only thirteen years old, he drew a picture of a machine that could send pictures as radio sends sounds. He got the idea from the way the potatoes were planted in the field. The potatoes grew in long lines, side by side. This made a shape in Philo’s mind. This shape helped Philo think of a way to send the TV picture onto a piece of glass. But he was poor, so Philo could not try to make his idea into a machine at that time.
Later, Philo worked at many different jobs. He worked with trees. He worked on broken radios. He worked on trains. He also worked as a street cleaner. At last, two rich men heard about his idea for television, and they gave him the money to make it. On September 7th, 1927, they watched Philo test the machine he built. When Philo turned on the machine, a small line could be seen on the glass. Philo said, “There you have it, electric television.”
Later, a big company, RCA, said they had made the first television. Philo had to spend a lot of money on lawyers to fight them. Finally, he won. Then, World War Two started in 1939. During the war, Philo spent a lot of money helping the US army instead of building up his television company. After the war, other bigger, richer companies started making televisions. In the end, Philo had to sell his company.

I had just put on my suit, shorts, and tank top, and packed my bag with sunscreen and everything else I would need for the day. I ran into my parents’ room to find Dad. When I saw him on the phone, he was crying. I’d never seen my dad cry before. My heart sank. What possibly could have happened?
"Max, I’m so sorry," I heard him say. That’s when it hit me. I knew that Suzie had died. Max has been my dad’s best friend for years. Suzie, his daughter, had a rare disease that mainly affected her body. Her brain was OK. She knew what was going on; she knew that she had problems and was different from other kids. Once she told her dad that she wished she could die and be born in a different body. Yet although she couldn’t live a normal life ,she was still happy.
When Suzie and I were little, we spent quite a bit of time together. As we grew up, we grew apart. She lived in New York, and I lived in the Midwest. When Suzie was ten she had to live in a hospital in Virginia. About eight months before she died, Max gave us her number at the hospital and we talked at least twice a week until the end. Suzie was always so excited to talk to us and wanted to know every detail about my life. She wanted to know everything I did and every thing I ate. In a way, she lived through me.
After we found out about her death, we made our plans to go to New York for the funeral. When she was alive, I sent her a Beanie Baby and she sent one back to me. I had bought her another one but never had the chance to send it to her, so I took it to put in her casket(棺材).
Her funeral was very different from any funeral I’d ever been to. After they lowered her casket, each one of us put a shovelful of dirt over her. I remember crying so hard, I felt weak. My cheeks burned from the tears. My whole body was shaking as I picked up the shovel, but I’m glad I did it.
When Suzie and I first started calling one another, I thought it would be more of a burden on me, but I was completely wrong. I learned so much from her. She gave me more than I could ever give to her. I will never forget her or the talks we had. I now know that I must never take anything for granted especially my health and the gift of life.
小题1:What does the underlined part “In a way, she lived through me.” mean?
A.Suzie got to know what life outside hospital was like by sharing my experience. |
B.Suzie was financially dependent of me. |
C.Suzie managed to pull through her illness with the help of my family. |
D.Suzie was too weak to live her own life. |
A.Suzie was the only person helping the author with difficulties. |
B.The author feared that she might also get the same disease as Suzie. |
C.The author benefited a lot from talking on the phone with Suzie. |
D.The author didn’t understand Suzie was her true friend until Suzie’s death. |
A.Never let go of a friend even if you are apart. |
B.Be thankful for what we have in our life. |
C.Talking with a friend can cure your illness. |
D.We can learn more from our friends than they do from us. |
Dr.Mellinkoff asked to see the patient.He introduced himself in Spanish and, in a very gentle voice, asked how he felt.The patient smiled and said everything was all right.Then the doctor asked if he was able to eat.The patient said that he had no desire to eat.
"Are you getting food you like?"
The patient said nothing.
"Do you get the kind of food you have at home?"
The answer was no.
The doctor put his hand on the man’s shoulder and his voice was very soft.
"If; you had food that you liked, would you eat it?"
"Yes, yes," the patient said.
The change in the patient’s appearance couldn’t have been more obvious.Nothing was said, but it was easy to tell that a message had been sent and! had also been received.
Later, the doctor asked why the Guatemalan man wasn’t getting food he could eat.One of the students said, "We all know how difficult it is to get the kitchen to make special meals."
"Suppose," the doctor replied, "you felt a certain medicine was absolutely necessary but that our hospital didn’t carry it, would you accept defeat or would you insist the hospital meet your request?"
"I would probably insist," the student said.
"Very well," the doctor said."You might want to try the same method in the kitchen.It won’t be easy, but I can help you.Meanwhile, let’s get some food inside this man as fast as possible, and stay with it.Or he’ll be killed by hunger.By the way, there must be someone among you who can speak Spanish.If we want to make real progress, we need to be able to talk with him."
Three weeks later, Doctor Mellinkoff told me that the Guatemalan man had left the hospital under his own power.It takes more than medicine to help sick people; you also have to talk to them and make them comfortable.
