When I was looking for a Christmas present for my daughter in a

toy store, a nicely dressed little girl, with some money in her little

hand, was looking at some beautiful dolls. When she saw a doll she

liked, she would ask her father if she had enough money. He usually

said yes.

At the same time, a boy, with old and small clothes, was looking

at some video games. He, too, had money in his hand, but it looked no

more than five dollars. Each time he picked up one of the video games

and looked at his father, he shook his head.

The little girl had chosen her doll, a very beautiful one. However, she noticed the boy and his father. She saw the boy give up a video game with disappointment(失望) and walk to another corner of the store.

The little girl put her doll back to the shelf and ran over to the video game. After she talked to her father, she paid for the video game and whispered(耳语) to the shop assistant.

So the boy got the video game that he wanted for free—he was told it was a prize from the store. He smiled happily, although he felt it was so.

The girl saw all this happen. She smiled, too.

When I walked out of the store to my car, I heard the father ask his daughter why she had done that. I would never forget their short talk. “Daddy, didn’t Grandma want me to buy something that would make me happy?”

He said, “Of course, she did.”

“Well, I just did!” With that, the little girl started skipping(蹦跳) towards their car happily.

A. school B. toy store

C. cinema D. computer room 72. The boy ______. A. wore new and nice clothes C. was from a poor family A. 难以置信的 B. had much money in his hand D. wanted to get a doll very much C. 感到绝望的 D. 荒谬可笑的 73. The underlined word “incredible” most probably means “______” in Chinese. B. 令人兴奋的

A. The little girl was kind and helpful.

B. The video game was a prize from the store.

C. The writer paid for the video game for the boy.

D. The boy bought the video game himself from the store.

75. What does the sentence “Well, I just did!” mean?

A. I just did something for the boy and he would be happy.

B. I just bought a nice doll for myself and I would be happy.

C. I just bought a present for Grandma and she would be happy.

D. I just did something for the boy and it would make me happy.

主旨大意：文章讲述了一个助人为乐的故事。

71.B细节理解题。根据文章第一句When I was looking for a Christmas present for my daughter in a toy store,知道故事发生在玩具店里。所以答案选B。

72.C推测判断题。那个小男孩看到喜欢的东西问他爸爸能否买得起，他爸爸总是摇头，可以知道小男孩应

该是来自一个贫穷的家庭。所以答案选C。

73.A猜测词义题。小男孩从商店免费得到了想要的电视游戏，被告知是奖品，这种天上掉馅饼的事情让人很难以置信，所以答案选A。

74. A D 信息获取和理解判断题。选项说小女孩善良且乐于助人，文章讲述这个小女孩放弃自己喜欢的娃娃，她买了小男孩喜欢的电视游戏让店员送给他，可以看出她很善良、乐于助人。B选项说电视游戏是商店的奖赏，这只是小女孩为了不伤害小男孩自尊心让店员说的善意的谎言。C选项说作者替小男孩付电视游戏的钱，但文章说是小女孩让爸爸买的，而不是作者。D选项说小男孩自己从商店买了电视游戏，显然不符合文意。所以答案选A。

75. D细节理解题。从文章最后小女孩和她爸爸的对话中知道，小女孩这么做的原因是奶奶告诉她去买一些能让她高兴的东西，那么小女孩认为帮助别人，使别人快乐就是自己最大的快乐，这体现了小女孩的优秀品质。根据...didn’t Grandma want...可知答案选D。

D

I began to send e-mail when I was 17. I discovered Google 5 years later. Now, I use the Internet all the time. Internet has become so popular that 90 percent of 12-to-17-year-olds in the United States use the Internet, and about half of these kids use it every day. They visit chat(聊天) rooms and send e-mails. They go to websites to get information for their homework.

“Kids are now living in a virtual(虚拟的) world,” says Greenfield, an expert at the University of California, “As the Internet is becoming more and more important for our life, we should worry about one question: Is the Internet good or bad for kids? ”

“It’s X to answer the question because the Internet involves(涉及) so many things,” says Justine, who is from Northwestern University. “They include online computer games, news, messages and even e-mails to your grandmother.” So, more and more people believe that the online world can be helpful in some ways but dangerous in others.

“Although it’s not easy to tell whether it’s good or bad,” says Justine, “the Internet, at least, is very useful and can be used widely by everyone in the world.”

76. The writer discovered Google at the age of ______.

A. 5 B. 12

C. 17 D. 22 D. About 90%. 77. What percentage of American 12-to17-year-olds use the Internet every day? A. About 45%.

78. Greenfield ______.

A. is an expert from Northwestern University

B. wants to stop all the kids from using the Internet

C. thinks that the Internet is good for all the kids in the world

D. is worrying about whether the Internet is good or bad for kids

79. “X” in the passage should be the word “______”.

A. possible B. difficult

C. easy D. good 80. Which is the best title of the passage? A. Don’t Use the Internet B. Kids and Emails D. Two Experts from Universities C. Is the Internet Good or Bad B. About 50%. C. About 80%.

主旨大意：本文是围绕Internet到底对孩子们有好处还是坏处展开讨论

76.D细节理解题。根据“I began to send e-mail when I was 17. I discovered Google 5 years later.”可知。

77.A 获取信息和加工题。根据“Internet has become so popular that 90 percent of 12-to-17-year-olds in the United States use the Internet, and about half of these kids use it every day.”可知。审题时一定要注意“every day”

78.D 信息获取和判断推理题。根据文中信息“says Greenfield, an expert at the University of California,”可推断A是错的。而BCD选项需要对Greenfield所说的话 As the Internet is becoming more and more important for our life, we should worry about one question: Is the Internet good or bad for kids? ”进行理解和分析，从而判断出BC不是正确答案，D是正确答案。

79.B 填补单词或短语题 根据从Justine说的话“So, more and more people believe that the online world can be helpful in some ways but dangerous in others.”和“Although it’s not easy to tell whether it’s good or bad,”判断出回答Greenfield提出的这个问题是很困难的。大难是B

80.C 主旨大意题。本文多数篇幅是围绕Internet到底对孩子们有好处还是坏处而展开的，即使是看似与主题无关的第一段，实际上也是为讨论提供铺垫，所以答案是C。
