“What do you think you are doing?” It was clear that the professor had   46   only to give the student a   47   time.
“Turning in my exam,” replied the student confidently.

The student smiled slyly(狡诈地)   51   asked the professor, “Do you know who I am?” “No,” cried out the professor   52 .

答案

36--55 BADCB ABDAA CBDAB ACDDB

解析

36 be busy doing …忙于做……。这名教师不停地在教室走动，确保没有学生作弊。
37 因为学生们正在考试，教授不停地在教室走动的目的就是为了防止学生作弊。
38 根据后文可知，考试已经结束，他让学生把完成的答卷交到前面讲桌上。
39 学生进行的是期末考试，所有的学生都希望考出一个好的成绩，以防留级。
40 下文讲述的只是其中的一个学生在考试结束后继续答题。
41 根据常识，考试结束，学生应把笔放下，再检查一下试卷。另外，根据43个空后面的一句话，也可得知答案。
42 根据后面的almost an hour可知，时间在一分一分地过去。
43 考试结束后过了将近一小时，这名考生才停止答卷。
44 gather up收拾起来；send up发射；bring up养育,扶养；make up组成。
考生答完试卷后，应把试卷按顺序整理好再交上去。
45 一般情况下，考试结束，监考教师应让学生停止答题，把试卷收起来。可这名教师却出人意料地等待这名考生把试卷做完。
46 根据上文可知，教授一直在等这名考生把试卷答完。
47 这名教授在考试结束后，又等了一小时，这种令众人惊讶的举动本身就有一定的目的。另外，根据后文教授幸灾乐祸的言语可知，他等的目的就是为了教训一下这名“不听话”的学生。
48 教授所等说的话对这名学生来说是一个不好的消息。
49 此处指学生交卷晚了一个小时。
50 根据前面You’re FAILED it可知，教师是想告诉学生考试没有通过。期末考试不及格，当然得再读一年。
51 此处用and连接两个并列的谓语动词，学生笑了笑，然后问道……。
52 考生考试本来违反纪律，但竟然还笑着对教授提问题，教授理所当然地十分生气，根据前面的cried也可知教授的心情。
53 look … in the eyes :look in one’s eyes目不转睛地注视着某人。此处是考生为了转移教授的注意力故意做出的动作。
54 联系上文可知，其他考生已经把试卷交上，放在一起，这名考生只是掀开其中的一摞。根据下一句话“put his test neatly into the centre of the pile”也可得知答案。
55 bury掩埋。结合语境可知，考生把他的试卷放入这一堆试卷的中间，是为了不让这名教授找到他的试卷。

举一反三

Somehow Rey had managed to struggle free from the rope around his neck, after being left to die a slow death as punishment for being a bad Spanish greyhound（猎狗）．

20090506

It is believed that 50,000 greyhounds are killed by their owners in Spain each year after they grow too old, or turn out to be too slow to hunt with．Dogs have also been found thrown into wells, burnt alive and even injected with poison．But Rey"s intended fate（命运） was, even within the levels of cruelty usually shown to Spanish hunting dogs, especially cruel．The rope around his neck had been set at a height so that his front paws could not touch the ground, meaning that he was intended to stand on his back legs until he was too tired to support himself．When his legs finally became too tired, the rope should have done its work．
"They call it the typewriting death, because the dog"s back legs struggled against the ground and make the clicking sound of a typewriter," said Albert Sorde, of the SOS Galgos greyhound rescue group．"It is a punishment for greyhounds that are thought to have made their owners lose face．"
"Rey"s throat was severely damaged but we managed to find a vet to operate and, though it was expensive, he survived," he said．
Greyhounds in Spain are used for hunting hares（野兔）．"The dogs are meant to imitate the swerves（转向）of the hares," said Sorde．"Those who don"t, and make their owners look bad, are called "dirty greyhounds" and are most likely to be killed by the typewriter method．"

小题1:Rey was intended to be killed by ．

A．kicking	B．burying
C．hanging	D．drowning

小题2:The underlined word "vet" in（Paragraph 5）probably means “_________”．

A．animal doctor	B．ambulance
C．animal medicine	D．equipment

小题3:What can you infer from the passage?

A．Dogs are not kept as pets in Spain．

B．Rey was punished because he had not been loyal to his owner．

C．The typewriting death is named because a typewriter is used in the punishment．

D．Rey didn’t behave very well in the hunting．

小题4:The passage mainly tells the readers about _________．

A．the cruel killing of dogs in Spain

B．how Rey was saved by rescuers

C．how Spanish dogs hunt hares

Handshaking, though a European practise is often seen in big cities of China. Nobody knows exactly when the practice started in Europe. It is said that long long ago in Europe when people met, they showed their unarmed (无武器的) hands to each other as a sign of goodwill. As time went on and trade in cities grew rapidly, people in cities began to clap each other’s hands to make a deal or to reach an agreement. This practice was later changed into shaking hands among friends on meeting or leaving each other. “Let’s shake (hands) on it” sometimes means agreement reached.
Do the Europeans shake hands wherever they go and with whomever they meet? No. Sometimes the Chinese abroad reach out their hands too often to be polite. It is really very impolite to give your hand when the other party, especially when it is a woman, shows little interest in shaking hands with you and when the meeting does not mean anything to him or-her. Even if, for politeness, he holds out his unwilling hand in answer to your uninvited hand, just touch it slightly- There is generally a misunderstanding (误解) among the Chinese that westerners are usually open and straight forward, while the Chinese are rather reserved (保守的) in manner. But in fact some people in western countries more reserved than some Chinese today. So it is a good idea to shake hands with a westerner only when he shows interest in further relations with you.
64. In the old days in Europe, people put out their unarmed hands to each other ______.
A. to make a deal B. to greet each other
C. to show friendliness D. to reach an agreement
65. The first paragraph mainly tells us ______.
A. where handshaking was first practised
B. how handshaking came about
C. about the relationship between handshaking and trade
D. about the practice of handshaking both in Europe and in China
66. According to the text. which of the following statements is true?
A. Westerners are more reserved than the Chinese.
B. Westerners are unwilling to shake hands.
C. We should make a judgment before shaking hands.
D. We shouldn’t shake hands with European women.
67. The main purpose of the text is ______.
A. to tell us some differences between the East and the West
B. to offer us some important facts about handshaking
C. to introduce us to some different customs in the West
D. to give us some advice before we travel abroad
