题型：不详难度：来源：
I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the highway at 85 mph __17_ we realized we were __18_. Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand-new $20 bill. I was so __19_ because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on __20__ seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line. __21__ I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I __22_ I had not actually handed any money to the cashier. I had just __23__ out, and nobody had noticed. I felt terrible.
My conscience (良心) opened its mouth and swallowed me in one big bite. I couldn’t __24__ over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and __25__ for my stolen pizza. I was so upset that I __26__ to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream for __27__ that someone would say, “Hey, Jeff, why not you use the change __28__ the pizza instead of that nice, new $20 bill?” I was not so __29__ of my cash now. For the next two years, whenever I was __30__ of the “pizza incident”, I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it…”
I have learned two things from this __31__. Maybe I was a fool for __32__ in to my conscience, and being too stupid to appreciate a __33__ pizza. But the real lesson is that even if you get away with what you have done, your conscience will __34__ up with you.
This reflects the saying, “Coward (懦夫) dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies one.” I was a coward and have felt terrible about that incident at least a thousand times. If I had been a “__35__” and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only one, or maybe twice.

解析
小题1:C。“share” 在这里是“分享”的意思。从后文我们可以看出，作者和大家分享了自己的一段经历，因此用”share”。选A,B两项的同学通常将原文翻译成“讲一段经历”。但只要将选项还原，我们就会发现：to say an experience是非常不地道的用法；to talk an experience在语法上也不对（通常用to talk about sth.），因此可以排除这两项。D选项在文意上不符。
小题2:D。这是一个时间状语从句，考查的是其中连词的用法。”be racing down”是一个延续性的动作，而”realize”是一个瞬时发生的动作。严格地说，as作连词时，前后的动作在时间延续性上要求统一，因此在这里不合适；while后面引出的动作应该是延续性的，而非”realize”这样的瞬时动作；then意思是“然后”，如果用在此处应该说and then。
小题3:C。A,D是比较容易排除的干扰项，“迷路”、“焦躁”在后文并没有体现出来。大多数做错本题的同学选择了”tired”，因为与后面的”rest area”相呼应。但是，如果我们继续读下去就会发现，让作者一行人停下来的主要原因是饥饿而非疲劳，也才因此有了后文买皮萨的故事。而所谓”rest area”其实就是指能提供饮食补给的地方。因此本题选hungry.
小题4:A。这一题主要考察词汇。因为拥有新奇东西而引起的情感通常是”excited”兴奋，而非“热切”、“满足”，或者“受到鼓舞”。
小题5:B。从后文可以推断出，作者很不情愿将心爱的纸币花在批萨上，因此选择”food”.有21%的同学选择了A选项，这些同学其实延续了28题的错误：全文的中心故事是由hungry/ food引发的，而非tired/ rest area.
小题6:B。“Luckily”是“幸运的”，从原文看不出作者买到食物是一件幸运的事；”immediately”是“马上，立刻”的意思，一半以上做错本题的同学选择了这一项。从前文中我们知道作者一行人冲进了”pizza line”，买批萨的队伍，可见买食物是需要等候的，不可能“马上”得到；”actually”表示“事实上”，文意不符。
小题7:D。大多数做错本题的同学选择了C. “notice”的确有察觉到的意思，但通常用于嗅觉、视觉、听觉等感官察觉到的东西（牛津高阶：”notice: to see or hear sb/sth; to become aware of sb./sth.”）。而原文中，是思想上“意识到”，用”realize”更好。
小题8:A。“walked out” 指作者没付钱就这么“（大摇大摆地）走出来”。如果用”left”，后面不用加out; work out“计算出”；find out“找出”。
小题9:B。这道题考察了一个固定搭配”get over sth.” 表示“克服（某种负面情绪），（把某件事）想开，原谅”。这里，作者是说自己无法原谅自己买东西不付钱这种做法，没法克服这件事带来的负面情绪。
小题10:B。ask for“请求，要求”，不符文意；apologize for“为…道歉”，一些同学错在这里。从常理上说，作者如果此时回到收银台，最直接的做法是付钱，而不是道歉，否则不符合常理；send for sb.表示请某人来到自己这里，send for sth.表示请别人将某物送到自己这里来。
小题11:A。从后文我们知道，作者此时十分愧疚，以至于不敢去买饭后的甜点，一是自我惩罚，二来也生怕露出破绽。因此这里用refuse表示为了不漏出破绽而拒绝买甜点。后面的三个选项“想要”、“希望”、“打算”都不符合文意。
小题12:D。“in fear that”表示“生怕…/唯恐…”。作者不敢去买甜点，唯恐掏钱的时候被人发现马脚。”In hope”表示“希望”，作者做“贼”心虚，肯定是生怕被揭穿，而不会希望被人质问，所以意思不对。”in surprise”和”in anger”分别表示吃惊的、生气的，于原文情境、意思都不相符。
小题13:D。“the change from the pizza”表示“从买批萨那里找来的零钱”，from本身就有“从…来”的意思。选A、C的同学大概看到change就觉得change into sth., change for sth.读起来很顺，但是change into是“变成…”的意思，change for是“把…换成…”的意思，这时change都是动词“变化”，而本题中change是名词，表示找零、零钱。选B的同学理解了change的熟词生意，但是一般不用change with sth.表示“...的找零”。
小题14:C。作者原本很为自己有一张新奇的货币而兴奋，但经历了这件事后，作者十分”upset沮丧”，不再像以前那样，为自己的宝贝而骄傲，因此选proud。将近六成同学选了B,D。作者明明十分沮丧，所以B ”upset”用在这里与全文意思相左；如果用D ”pleased”，则这句话应改为” I was not so pleased by my cash now”. “be pleased by”表示“被…取悦”，不能用of.
小题15:B。sb. be reminded of sth.是remind sb. of sth.的一种被动形式，表示“被勾起（关于某件事的）回忆”。大多数做错的同学选了C “thought”。如果用thought，直接说”every time when I thought…”就可以了，不应该用被动I was thought。
小题16:A。Experience与第一段相呼应。
小题17:D。这一题考察的是动词短语的搭配。”turn in”表示上交、归还；“take in”表示吸收、接纳，用在衣服上还表示改短、改小；“hand in”也是递交、上交的意思。”give in to sth.”在表示上交之外，也表示向…妥协，屈服，让步。这里，作者想说自己向自己的良心妥协，对一件小事耿耿于怀，这种做法或许很傻。因此用give in to。
小题18:A。Free有自由的意思之外，还表示“免费的”。作者这块批萨是没花一分钱的，因此是free pizza. 很多同学选了cheap廉价的，但廉价也是要花一点钱的，不符文意。”plain”可以表示“原味的、朴素的、明白的”等等，在这里都不符合文意；”delicious”美味的，在文中从未提及。
小题19:C。我们熟悉的catch up with的意思是“追上、赶上”，但catch up with还有“查出来并抓获”的意思。在这里，作者想说，如果一个人做了亏心事，即使他自己努力不去想，他的良心也会把他的过失“追查出来”。Make up是弥补的意思，wake up 是醒来的意思，而put up with是容忍、宽容的意思。
小题20:D。“A coward dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies one”一句中提及了两种人：coward 和hero. 作者先说自己属于前者，然后再假设“如果自己是后者的情况”，因此这里应该用hero.

举一反三
The event happened in the early morning hours in one of the first days when Calvin Coolidge came into power, late in August, 1923．He and his family were living in the same third-floor suite (套房) at the Willard Hotel in Washington that they had occupied several years before．The former President’s wife was still living in the White House．
Coolidge awoke to see a stranger go through his clothes, remove a wallet and a watch chain．
Coolidge spoke, “I wish you wouldn’t take that．”
The thief, gaining his voice, said, “Why?”
“I don’t mean the watch and chain, only the charm (表坠)．Take it near the window and read what is impressed on its back, “ the President said．
The thief read, “Presented to Calvin Coolidge．”
“Are you President Coolidge ? “ he asked．
The President answered, “Yes, and the House of Representatives (众议院) gave me that watch charm．I’m fond of it．It would do you no good．You want money．Let’s talk this over．”
Holding up the wallet, the young man said in a low voice, “I’ll take this and leave everything else．”
Coolidge, knowing there was ＄80 in it, persuaded the young man to sit down and talk．He told the President he and his college roommate had overspent during their holiday and did not have enough money to pay their hotel bill．
Coolidge added up the roommate and two rail tickets back to the college．Then he counted out ＄32 said it was a loan (借款)．
He then told the young man, “There is a guard in the corridor．” The young man nodded and left through the same window as he had entered．

Through comments on blogs, or Web logs, teachers can share their classroom experiences. They can exchange ideas and discuss successes and failures. They can debate educational policies. Or they can just sympathize with each other.
A teacher in the American state of North Carolina recently wrote on her blog: “Apparently the teachers at my school use too much paper. So my principal yelled at everyone at the last staff meeting for, like, ten minutes. Now, I’ve just been told, we are not getting anymore paper for the rest of the year.”
This unidentified blogger is now in her third year of teaching, but still calls her site firstyearteacher.blogspot.com.
A blogger who calls himself Minister Lawrence works as a substitute teacher. In April he wrote about a disputed plan to split the Omaha, Nebraska, public schools into separate systems for black, Latino and white students. Supporters say minority parents do not have enough power over their children’s education.
But Minister Lawrence wrote at teachersparadise.blogspot.com: “I’m afraid that what this says’ to a lot of people is that blacks, whites and Hispanics are not equal, and “reinforces” racist beliefs among people.”
Educators did not become involved with blogging right away. Many were concerned with privacy issues and security. But now, thousands of teacher blogs can be found on the Internet. Many teachers do not identify themselves, and they change the names of students and co-workers.
小题1:What are teachers not doing through blogs?
| A．They discuss educational problem. | B．They send money to the poor students. |
| C．They share teaching ideas. | D．They comfort each other. |

| A．they are forbidden to identify themselves. |
| B．they are forbidden to write something through blogs |
| C．they want to ensure their security |
| D．they want to amuse others. |
| A．Paper consuming is declining. | B．Teaching is improving. |
| C．Classes are more active. | D．Government is against it. |
| A．classroom experiences | B．teaching plans |
| C．educational policies | D．the black minority |
What grew from this soul searching was Ulifeline (www. Ulifeline. org), a Web site where students can get answers to questions about depression by logging on through their universities. The site has been adopted as a resource by over 120 colleges, which can customize it with local information, and over 1.3 million students have logged on with their college ID’s.
“It is a very solid Web site that raises awareness of suicide, de-stigmatizes mental illness and encourages people to seek the help they need,”said Paul Grayson, the director of counseling services at New York University, which started using the service nearly a year ago.
The main component of the Web site is the Self-screening program developed by Duke University Medical Center that tests students to determine whether they are at risk for depression, suicide and disorders like anorexia and drug dependences. Besides helping students, the services compiles anonymous student date, offering administrators an important window onto the mental health of its campus.
The site provides university users with links to local mental health services, a catalog of information on prescription drugs and side effects, and access to Go Ask Alice, a vast archive developed by Columbia University with hundreds of responses to anonymously posted inquires from college students worldwide. For students concerned about their friends, there is a section that describes warning signs for suicidal behavior and depression.
Yet it is hard to determine how effective the service is. The anonymity of the online service can even play out as a negative. “There is no substitute for personal interaction(个人互动才能解决)，” said Dr. Lanny Berman, executive director of the American Association of Suicidology, based in Washington.
Ulifeline would be the first to say that its service is no replacement for an actual therapist. “The purpose is to find out if there are signs of depression and then direct people to the right places,” said Ron Gibori, executive director of Ulifeline.
Mrs. Satow, who is still involved with Ulifeline, called it “a knowledge base” that might have prevented the death of her son, Jed. “If Jed’s friends had known the signs of depression, they might have seen something,” she said.
小题1: The first paragraph is written to_________.
| A．report a suicide of a young man |
| B．show the suffering of Mr. And Mrs. Satow |
| C．describe the Satows’ confusion over their son’s death |
| D．introduce the topic of a website called Ulifeline. |
| A．provide their students with campus information |
| B．offer medical treatment to students in mental disorder |
| C．encourage their students to seek advice about depression |
| D．give their students various help they may need |
| A．a side effect caused by some prescription drugs |
| B．intended to counsel college students in mental problems |
| C．a collection of medical responses from students the world over |
| D．meant to describe the various signs of mental disorders |
| A．only actual therapy can ensure adequate treatment |
| B．the help given by the web service is doubtful |
| C．doctors have expressed a negative view of the service |
| D．a therapist’s office is the first place for the depressed to go |
| A．Jed’s friends can prevent her son’s death |
| B．her son’s suicide is unavoidable |
| C．Ulifeline is a worthwhile website |
| D．depression is the final cause of suicides |
He walked 56 toward the window where I was seated．I tried not to intrude （侵犯） on his 57 , but he welcomed me in by asking: “Did you ever say good-bye to 58 knowing it would be forever?”“Yes, I have,” I replied．“ 59 me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?” I asked．“I am old and she lives much too far away．I have 60 ahead and the reality is, her next trip back will be for my funeral,” he said．“When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, ‘I wish you enough．"" May I ask what that means?”
He began to smile．“That is a wish that has been handed down from other 61 ．My parents used to say it to everyone．” He paused for a moment, looking up as if trying to remember it in detail, he 62 even more．“When we said ‘I wish you enough"", we wanted the other person to have a life filled with enough good things to sustain them,” he continued and then 63 toward me, he shared the following 64 he were reciting it from memory．
“I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude 65 ．I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more．I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive．I wish you enough pain so that the 66 joys in life appear much bigger．I wish you enough gain to satisfy your 67 ．I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you 68 ．I wish enough “Hello”s to get you 69 the final “Good-bye．”He then began to sob （哽咽） and walked away．
It is said that “It takes a/an 70 to find a special person, an hour to 71 them, a day to love them, 72 then an entire life to 73 them．”
