B My daughter and I were driving from Los Angeles to Dallas. We were running low on gas (汽油) somewhere in New Mexico and hoped to meet a gas station soon. But that didn’t happen and we realized we were not going to make it to the next town. So my daughter made up a sign that said, “Low on gas. Can you help me?” and held it outside her window, hoping a driver in the next lane (车道) would notice it and stop. There weren’t too many cars passing by us at that time. It was a desolate stretch of the road and about 3:30 p. m. on a weekday. A truck was driving along in the neighboring lane ahead of us. We caught up with it in the hope that the driver would notice the sign. An elderly gentleman was driving it and after an expression of confusion (困惑) on his face, he seemed to have noticed the sign and slowed down to pull over. We pulled over right behind him. He was friendly and was willing to help us. At first he thought we didn’t have enough money to buy gas, so he offered to buy us gas at the next town Roswell that was about 10 miles’ away! When we explained our trouble, he said he was a factory worker and was returning home from work. His factory was about 10 minutes away and they had gas there, so if we could give him 20 minutes, get a can of gas and fill up our car for us. We could not believe our good luck! We were filled with thanks for the kindness of strangers such as this person when we waited for him to return. Sure enough, he was back with the can. He refused to take payment for the gas. Tears came down, as did our warm thanks. 4. What happened to the writer and her daughter while driving to Dallas? A. They lost their way. B. They were running out of gas. C. Their car broke down. D. They had no money to buy gas. 5. How did the writer and the daughter ask for help? A. By making a telephone call. B. By waiting at the roadside. C. By hanging out a sign. D. By shouting to passing drivers. 6. What do the underlined words “desolate stretch” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Dark side. B. Lonely area. C. Crowded crossing. D. Busy part. 7. How did the truck driver help the writer and the daughter? A. He offered to buy them gas. B. He sent them to his factory. C. He brought some gas for them. D. He wished them good luck. C It’s no secret that there is a space(空间) problem in Manhattan(曼哈顿). People build up higher and higher buildings because there isn’t much land left and there is no room to build out. So people have been building lots of tall and thin buildings. Developers(开发商) are trying to build higher and higher buildings. However, the government has made laws(法律) that don’t allow developers to build too high buildings. Oiio Studio thinks about things differently, “what if our buildings were not tall but long?” So the founder of Oiio Studio, Ioannis Oikonomou, design(设计) a U-shaped building, the Big Bend. It would be a very thin building. It would curve at the top and return to the ground. Oikonomous, said he thought of the great idea because he learned from a piece of news. It said that a company made a lift that could travel in curves. So he designed the Big Bend. He thought it as “the longest building in the world”. It would be 4000 feet from end to end and would need a different lift system. We can’t change the law, ▲ . So if we can bend(使弯曲) our building, we would be able to build one of the most amazing buildings in Manhattan,” Oiio Studio said. The Big Bend is just an idea for now. Oikonomous has sent the plans to a few companies, and is looking for developers. If successful, they will build the Big Bend around West 57th Street, just to the south of Central Park. 8. Why are developers trying to build higher and higher buildings in Manhattan? A. Because there are too many people. B. Because people enjoy tall buildings. C. Because there isn’t much land left. D. Because the buildings are too low. 9. How is this passage organized? A B. C. D. 10. Which of the following can be put in the blank in Paragraph 3? A. so we can build buildings B. but we can report news C. so we can’t build buildings D. but we can change our buildings 11. What can we infer(推断) from the passage? A. No one wants to build the Big Bend. B. They have not built the Big Bend yet(还). C. We can see the Big Bend in Manhattan now. D. The Big Bend is very high.

C 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了作者和女儿开车去Dallas的路上，汽车耗尽了燃料，一个从那儿开车经过的老人帮助他们的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“We were running low on gas (汽油) somewhere in New Mexico and hoped to meet a gas station soon.”可知，在路上，他们的汽车没有燃料了。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“So my daughter made up a sign that said, ‘Low on gas. Can you help me?’ and held it outside her window, hoping a driver in the next lane (车道) would notice it and stop.”可知，作者的女儿做了一个标牌放在窗户外面以便于其他车道的司机可以注意到。故选C。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“There weren’t too many cars passing by us at that time.”可知，那时路上没有太多车经过，因此判断它是道路的荒凉地带，所以划线部分的含义是“荒凉地带”。故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“His factory was about 10 minutes away and they had gas there, so if we could give him 20 minutes, get a can of gas and fill up our car for us.”可知，卡车司机给他们带了些汽油。故选C。 C It’s no secret that there is a space(空间) problem in Manhattan(曼哈顿).

Oikonomous has sent the plans to a few companies, and is looking for developers. If successful, they will build the Big Bend around West 57th Street, just to the south of Central Park. 8. Why are developers trying to build higher and higher buildings in Manhattan? A. Because there are too many people. B. Because people enjoy tall buildings. C. Because there isn’t much land left. D. Because the buildings are too low. 9. How is this passage organized? A. B. C. D. 10. Which of the following can be put in the blank in Paragraph 3?
