The poor old man didn’t have anything to cover himself with. Sam went into his house to get the old man a blanket（毯子）.

I hope it fits you well.” He put the note in a pocket of the coat, and covered the old man with the coat. Then he went to work.

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.

Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail (详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living. teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.

I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.

C. spend the best years to choose jobs D. have fewer chances to get a good job

A. make a man lead a better life B. teach a man to write and think

48. The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “

A. 圆满的 B. 崭新的 C. 公平的 D. 全面的

49. It is expected that educated people will be able to .

A. accept education as a way of living

B. take an interest in the world

C. develop their abilities to make plays

D. learn subjects like language and mathematics

50. The passage mainly tells us that .

A. education should make a man improve

B. people can get education in a short time

C. people should be able to get better paying jobs

D. all subjects are so important for a way of living

参考答案：

1～5 CBACA 6～10 ACBAB 11～15 CBCBA 16～20 ABCAB

21. B play 与表示西洋乐器的名词连用时，西洋乐器名词前要加定冠词the ；play

与表示球类的名词连用时，球类名词前不能使用冠词。故选B 。

22. A ourselves“我们自己”；itse lf“它自己”；myself“我自己”；themselves“他/

她/它们自己”。所选反身代词应与前面的us 保持一致，故选ourselves 。句意为“对我们来说学会如何自学是非常重要的”。

23. B cinema“电影院”； library“图书馆”；park“公园”；station“车站”。由问句

句意“打扰了，你从哪里得到的这本书？”可推知答语意为“它是我从图书馆借的”。故选B 。

24. A by 表示方式，意为“通过；经由”；with 意为“用；和……在一起”；of 意

为“关于；属于……的”；in 意为“在……里；用”。由句意“你可以通过多练习来提高你的英语水平”可知A 项符合句意。

25. C 由问句句意“你想喝些咖啡吗？”及答语前半句句意“是的，请放些糖”可

知答语后半句句意为“我更喜欢喝加糖的咖啡”。四个选项中只有with 有“带有，具有”的意思，即：coffee with sugar“加糖的咖啡”，故选C 。

26. D if“如果”；unless“除非”；since“自从”；though“虽然”。由上句“Grace打算

捐很多钱给慈善机构”和下句“她不够富有”可知，前后句在语意上存在转折关系，故此处用though 引导让步状语从句。

27. A hardly“几乎不”；almost“几乎”；quite“非常”；nearly“差不多”。由sorry

（对不起）可知，下句句意为“我几乎不理解这个问题”。故用hardly 。

28. C take away “拿走，带走”；take off “起飞，脱下”；take care of “照顾”；take

out of “从……中取出”。空格后是my baby “我的孩子”，因此take care of符合题意。

29. A needn’t“没有必要”；mustn’t“禁止，不准”；shouldn’t“不应该”；can’t“不

能”。以Must I 开头的一般疑问句，其否定答语一般是No, you needn’t.或No, you don’t have to.。故选A 。

30. B I hope so.“我希望如此”；I don’t agree.“我不同意”；No problem.“没问题”；

Good idea.“好主意”。由上句句意“我认为学生们应该有手机以便给家长打电话”和答语后句句意“相反，他们经常使用手机玩游戏”可知，第二个人和第一个人的意见不一致，故答案应为B 。

31.A 联系下文I made some new friends in the supermarket...可知，“我”在一家超

市找到一份工作。故选Ａ。

32.C find“找到”；make“做”；manage“设法完成”；eat“吃”。因为自己的孩子是

第一天上班，所以妈妈关心的是孩子是如何设法吃午餐的。四个选项中manage 最符合文意。

33.B invite sb. for lunch表示“邀请某人吃午餐”。

34.D 在前面“我”对妈妈说自己认识了几个新朋友，他们是一对双胞胎兄弟和

他们的父母。妈妈想知道他们是怎样的人，所以此处用people 最合适。

35.A asked 与let 是两个并列的动作，前后句意不存在转折、选择、因果等意

味，故用and 连接。

36.A surprised“惊讶的”；excited“兴奋的”；interested“感兴趣的”；

disappointed“失望的”。由于“我”之前并没有告诉妈妈这对双胞胎兄弟是连体兄弟，所以当妈妈看到两兄弟胸部相连时，她应感到惊讶。故选Ａ。

37.C too...to... 是一个固定结构，意为“太……而不能……”。句意：但你知道因

为太难找到适合他们的衣服所以他们的妈妈必须做所有的衣服吗？

38.D 由下文That day, Joe, the one on the right, made me noodles for lunch.可知，

此处说他们是好“厨师”。文章最后一句中的“...they were good cooks.”也是提示。

39.B 由句意“当妈妈看到这对双胞胎时，她一定认为他们看起来是多么奇怪”

可知，此处用连系动词looked ，意为“看起来”。

40.D sell“卖”；make“做”；wear“穿”；buy“买”。对于这对连体双胞胎兄弟而言，

他们买衣服有困难。have difficulty (in) doing sth.“做某事有困难”。

41.C 由文章第二段最后一句“It was an icy morning and he looked very cold.”可

知答案应为C 。

42.C 由文章第二段中的“...Sam left their little house to send newspapers.”可知，

萨姆早上的工作是送报纸，故答案为C 。

43.A die“死”；go on“继续”；leave home“离开家”；pass by“经过”。结合上下文

意思可知，pass away意为“去世；消失”，与die 意思相同，故答案为A 。

44.D 由文章第三段中的“However，there were no extra blankets, so Sam thought

hard and took his father’s coat.”可知，答案应为D 。

45.B 阅读全文可知，文章主要讲述的是一个男孩的善举无意中促成亲人相认

的故事，故选B 。

46.D 根据文章第一段第二句“In other words, they have more chances to choose a

good job while people with little or no education don’t.（换句话说，他们有更多的机会来选择一份好工作，然而接受过较少教育或没接受过教育的人却不行。）”可知选D 。

47.C 根据文章第二段第一、二句“Some people may think that a person should

spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education.（有些人也许认为一个人把他一生中最好的岁月用来获取教育只是为了一种生存的方式。这可能是最早的教育的原因之一。）”可推知应选C 。

48.D 该单词所在的句子是第三段的主题句，而该单词是该主题句的关键词。

由本段的内容可知，教育的目的是从各个方面提高人的素质，由此可推知该单词的意思是“全面的”，故选D 。

49.B 根据文章第三段最后一句“Educated people are expected to be able to listen

to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.”可知，受教育的人被料想能够听好音乐，读好书，观看戏曲，而最重要的是对世界充满兴趣，故选B 。其他选项都是片面的。

50.A 根据文章第三段第一句“Education is well -rounded and it is mainly for

improving a man.”可知，教育是全面的，它主要是为了提高人的整体素质。故选A 。

51. How often once a year“一年一次”，表频率。对频率提问应用how

often 。

52. What a 陈述句中a nice place 为名词短语，改为感叹句时应用what

引导。

53. whether/if，are 把直接引语中的一般疑问句变成充当宾语从句的间接引

语时，语序由

疑问语序变为陈述语序，并用连词if 或whether 引导，意

为“是否”。

54. be finished 含有情态动词的被动语态结构：情态动词+be+及物动词

的过去分词。

55. if/whether they 把直接引语中的一般疑问句变成充当宾语从句的间接引

语时，语序由

疑问语序变为陈述语序，并用if 或whether 来引导。根据

原句知直接

引语中的you 指the students，因此用they 来代替，故填if

they 或

whether they。

56. In order to 57. made a good impression on 58. Thank goodness

59. on his own 60. have no choice but to

One possible version:

With the global warming getting worse，more people choose to live a low-carbon life for the purpose of reducing greenhouse gases.

We’d better save much water and paper and electricity. We should use less carbon and oil. It’s important to turn off the lights and computers when we leave the room. We should take our own bags when we go shopping instead of using plastic bags from the supermarket. We should buy few clothes which are unnecessary. We shouldn’t buy or use one-off cups or chopsticks or bowls. It’s good for us to walk or take bikes to school instead of taking cars. We can also plant more trees to change air around us. Let’s take action and live a low-carbon life!
