核心考点
试题【Just like a boxer, we , too come face to face with many opponents on the stage o】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm and, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that city life has its problems too.
One big disadvantage is money---it costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from asthma(哮喘), and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of travelling round. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.
Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment. Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising---and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.
Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens(十几岁) or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.
小题1:What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?
A.Staying on the farm B.Moving to the countryside
C.Leaving home for the cityD.Running away from the school
小题2:Which of the following is true about the writer?
A.He is very old now.B.He is in good health.
C.He prefers driving a car.D.He lives in the city now.
小题3:In the passage, the writer tries to _______.
A.express his opinions about way of life
B.describe his life in the countryside
C.show an interest in the outside world
D.persuade the reader to live in the city
小题4:How is the passage mainly developed?
A.By inferringB.By comparing
C.By listing examplesD.By giving explanations

Speaking from my past experience, it is very difficult to find good friends that you can trust but once you have found them, they are worth keeping forever! Therefore, I think friendship is the most important relationship that anybody could have.
The qualities I look for in a friend are a good sense of humor but sensitivity when it matters. Also that friend would have to be strong-minded and highly spirited. I think that these qualities are the key qualities to look for in a good friend.
Even the strongest friends can still have arguments, although usually about more serious topics, rather than the usual teenage childish arguments. Some matters can seriously affect a friendship. If one of your friends started experimenting with harmful and dangerous drugs, what would you do ? A good friend would try to help as much as possible, whereas a bad example of a friend would simply shrug(耸肩) and turn a blind eye.
Not only the bad things affect friendship ---- good activities do too. Such as bonding with one another, not just by going out on a night with them but by spending quality time with them and talking to each other, which indicates a good ability to communicate. This is a key aspect of a good friendship.   
Good friends do not always have to be in the same age group as you. I have a good friend and she is 47 years old and I am 16.
Unfortunately, some people lose contact with their friends as they grow older, which is a sad way to lose a good friend.
I think friendship is one of the most important things in life because if you have no friends you will have no happiness.
小题1:According to the author, true friendship _______.
A.is easy to getB.deepens with time
C.needs managementD.affects one’s happiness
小题2:Paragraph 3 is mainly about______.
A.why drugs are bad for teenagers
B.problems that will test friendship
C.ways that help avoid arguments
D.whether a friend is trustworthy
小题3:According to the author, which matters least in friendship?
A.Age.B.Sensitivity.
C.Sense of humor.D.Communication ability.
小题4:Which of the following saying can match the author’s view on friendship?
A.Old friends and old wines are best.
B.A friend without faults will never be found.
C.A life without a friend is a life without the sun.
D.a friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.

The Couch Surfing network is an online community stretching across the globe with over one and a half million members. The basic concept is to provide a platform for travelers to contact people who are willing to put them up free of charge. Travelers connect with potential hosts online and, if they like each other, exchange details to make farther arrangements.
  Basil is one traveler from Switzerland who is currently couch surfing with a Chinese host in Beijing. "I thought staying in hostel is nice but you mostly meet foreigners and speak English. If you use Couch Surfing you have chance to meet people living here and really get a chance to know the life of the place you visit. " Basil was speaking during a regular meeting of Beijing network of Couch Surfing with a membership of almost 2,000.
  Although some people may have concerns about meeting complete strangers and giving them full access to your house, Beijing group member Fred Sharp from California says that the Couch Surfing community is one that generally attracts trustworthy people.
  "I have never had a problem with guests. I"d say that this Couch Surfing community worldwide is a fairly trustworthy community like I say, always be cautious, make sure that you read everyone"s profile that you"re considering hosting, and if it doesn"t feel right just say" no", it"s OK. "
  Originally launched in the US as a non-profit organization in 2004, Couch Surfing is growing fast across the world. China is no exception with around 30,000 members and hundreds more signing up each week. One of them is Beijing resident Hai Yan who joined in November 2009. She says the first time she hosted a guest was a very positive experience. "My first guest was from Italy. He was very kind and helpful. He bought me a present from Italy, a handbag. It"s a famous brand!"

Is it ever a good idea admitting a teenager to carry a credit card?
My kids watch closely as I swipe the card through the register. They’ve seen me do it hundreds, thousands of times. Cool. They are itching to swipe it through the machine themselves. When we walk out of the store with our groceries or pet food, or whatever, it’s almost as though money has not changed hands, painless, easy.
So it shouldn’t be shocking to discover that teenagers are becoming card carrying consumers in their own right. The question is, should they?
While some argue it’s best to teach kids how to use a credit card while still living under the family roof, not everyone agrees. Dave Ramsey, financial expert says getting credit card for your teenager is actually “an excellent way to teach him or her to be financially irresponsible.”
Now parents are required to co-sign on credit cards for children under 21. “If their name is on the credit card, then the parent may say, Hey, my name is on this. Don’t get me into trouble,” says Mary Beth Pinto, a marketing professor. “When parents were the co-obligors (共同借贷人), the children caused less debt. If the parents are the co-obligors, the tendency is that the parents were explaining how to use the cards.” Still, Pinto believes parents should start the process much earlier. “Yes, there has to be teaching going on and it has to start when they’re younger. You’re not going to get rid of credit cards. They are here to stay. You have to have them. You can’t fight progress,” Pinto said.
Ramsey, however, disagrees. “Throwing teens into a pool of (credit) sharks is a sure way to guarantee a life-time of heartache.” he said, “You can make online purchases and rent a car with a credit card. Of course, you must have money in your bank account before you can make a purchase with a credit card. But paying for things with money is what you are supposed to do.”
小题1:The author mentioned her experience in Para 2 mainly to _____.
A.prove the convenience of using credit cards
B.tell what impression credit cards leave on kids
C.give advice on using credit cards wisely
D.explain the pleasure credit cards bring to customers
小题2:The underlined word “itching” in Para 2 can be replaced by _____.
A.eagerB.afraidC.embarrassedD.thankful
小题3:What’s Ramsey’s attitude towards teens’ using credit cards?
A.He feels it is worth a try.
B.He is very supportive.
C.He is strongly against it.
D.He considers it as a pleasant experience.
小题4:Pinto will most likely agree that _____.
A.parents should let teens own their credit cards earlier
B.you shouldn’t be in control of credit cards
C.it is never good for anyone to get a credit card
D.learning to use credit cards is practical
