Pete used to spend his holidays travelling around the world, visiting the pyramids in Egypt or scuba diving (潜水) in the Caribbean. Nowadays he prefers to spend his holidays and weekends making his house looking more beautiful. Like millions of other British people, he has discovered the joy of DIY, which means if there are any things that need fixing around the house, he will try to do the job by himself. As he showed me the new kitchen and the newly painted walls, I asked Pete where he got his inspiration (灵感) . He told me that his favorite ideas from a DIY program on TV. I guess it is not really surprising that DIY programs are so popular. Two common sayings in Britain－ ‘an Englishman’s home is his castle’ and ‘there’s no place like home’－show how important our houses are to us. With the economic downturn (经济下滑) , many people can’t afford to buy a bigger house so they are looking at how they can make their house better without spending a lot of money. DIY is the best choice. But be careful! I read a report that said over 230,000 people were injured while doing home improvements in the UK in just one year, including 41,000 who fell off ladders and 5,800 who were seriously hurt by hammers. So I won’t be going down to the hardware store (五金店) . I’ll still enjoy watching DIY on TV with a nice cup of tea! 21. Pete is from ________. A. Egypt B. the Caribbean C. the US D. the UK 22. According to the passage, Pete used to _______. A. travel around the world B. spend the weekends making his house more beautiful C. do house improvements D. watch TV with a nice cup of tea 23. In this passage , DIY means ________. A. making the house look more beautiful B. fixing things around the house by oneself C. painting the wall D. making the house better 24. After reading the passage, we can know ______. A. the writer thinks people like DIY because their homes are important to them B. the writer will start DIY himself C. Pete got his inspiration from a DIY story in the newspaper D. there is a report that said 5,800 people fell off ladders every year (2) There is an old Chinese saying, “If someone gives you a little drop of water, you should return a spring of water.” That means if someone helps you a bit, you should remember it and thank them gratefully(感激地) in return. We should live in a world of gratitude. We should prove it with actions, not just words. We thank people who hurt us, because they teach us important things. We thank people who give us up, because we learn how to be independent. We thank people who are selfish(自私的), because we learn the importance of being kind. Of course, we should thank people who helps. We should thank people who teach us. We should thank people who care about us. We thank our parents. They work hard all the time in order to give their sons and daughters a better life. They cook meals for us, they do the chores for us, they always give us food and clothes, they teach us what is right and what is wrong. We thank our teachers who give us dreams. They teach us a lot of things but they ask for nothing from us. We are well-educated by them. There are a lot of people that we should be grateful to in our life. We should find a way to thank them. 25. According to the writer, what should you do if someone helps you? A. We should thank them gratefully in return. B. We just go away at once. C. We should do nothing. D. We should give them money. 26 The word “them” in the fourth paragraph refers to(指代) _______. A. parents B. friends C. teachers D. students 27.

She jumped in the front seat, feeling down. She asked me to help her study for her science test. “Dad, I need to memorize a unit about the Reproductive Cycle of Plants. And I can hardly make it.” “You know, memorizing seems like the best way to study, but in fact you can do better in tests if you work on trying to understand the material.” Juliet was open to my advice. It was Monday afternoon and we had two nights to study before the test on Wednesday. I suggested a plan. “Tomorrow night, you are going to teach the material to me. Tonight, read the unit. Prepare to teach.” Asking her to teach me was an unusual idea but I decided to do it. Studies show teaching somebody else is a very useful way to learn. Even if you don’t do the teaching, the act of preparing to teach leads to more learning than just trying your best to memorize the material. On Tuesday afternoon, Juliet sat down with her science book facing me and said, “Okay, Dad, let’s study.” I wanted her to teach me. But false starts happened. I couldn’t be too hard on her. So instead we started with me asking her some simple questions. She knew some but not others. When she didn’t know the answers, I encouraged her to check the book. She started checking things that didn’t make sense. And she was actively trying to test her understanding. I was happy to see it. She wasn’t memorizing, she was trying to make sense of things, which was exactly what I had hoped she would do. 29. Juliet felt down because _________. A. she had trouble memorizing a unit B. she couldn’t follow her teacher C. she failed her science test D. she knew nothing about planting 30. According to writer, the key to best learning was _________. A. memorizing B. understanding C. testing D. questioning 31. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refers to “_________”. A. asking her to teach me the unit B. encouraging her to read the unit C. making her check the book D. using simple questions to test her 32. When false starts happened, the writer was __________. A. sad B. worried C. patient D. nervous 33. The best title for the passage can be ___________. A. An Unexpected Test B. Learning from Teaching C A Creative Father D. Preparing for Teaching 第二节, 阅读还原 (本题共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项。(提示：每个选项只用一次，选项中有一项为多余选项) As we know, there are differences between Western culture and Chinese culture. ____34____.

She jumped in the front seat, feeling down. She asked me to help her study for her science test. “Dad, I need to memorize a unit about the Reproductive Cycle of Plants. And I can hardly make it.” “You know, memorizing seems like the best way to study, but in fact you can do better in tests if you work on trying to understand the material.” Juliet was open to my advice. It was Monday afternoon and we had two nights to study before the test on Wednesday. I suggested a plan. “Tomorrow night, you are going to teach the material to me. Tonight, read the unit. Prepare to teach.” Asking her to teach me was an unusual idea but I decided to do it. Studies show teaching somebody else is a very useful way to learn. Even if you don’t do the teaching, the act of preparing to teach leads to more learning than just trying your best to memorize the material. On Tuesday afternoon, Juliet sat down with her science book facing me and said, “Okay, Dad, let’s study.” I wanted her to teach me. But false starts happened. I couldn’t be too hard on her. So instead we started with me asking her some simple questions. She knew some but not others. When she didn’t know the answers, I encouraged her to check the book. She started checking things that didn’t make sense. And she was actively trying to test her understanding. I was happy to see it. She wasn’t memorizing, she was trying to make sense of things, which was exactly what I had hoped she would do. 29. Juliet felt down because _________. A. she had trouble memorizing a unit B. she couldn’t follow her teacher C. she failed her science test D. she knew nothing about planting 30.

A. asking her to teach me the unit B. encouraging her to read the unit C making her check the book D. using simple questions to test her 32. When false starts happened, the writer was __________. A. sad B. worried C. patient D. nervous 33. The best title for the passage can be ___________. A. An Unexpected Test B. Learning from Teaching C. A Creative Father D. Preparing for Teaching 【答案】29. A 30. B 31. A 32. C 33. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者通过让女儿教他来学习，通过这种学习方式——从教中学习，可以帮助女儿深入理解知识，提高理解能力。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“Dad, I need to memorize a unit about the Reproductive Cycle of Plants. And I can hardly make it.”可知，朱丽叶感到沮丧是因为她难以记住一个单元的内容，故选A。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“You know, memorizing seems like the best way to study, but in fact you can do better in tests if you work on trying to understand the material.”可知，作者认为理解是最好的学习方式，故选B。 【31题详解】 词句猜测题。文中提到“Asking her to teach me was an unusual idea but I decided to do it.”可知划线词“it”指的是“asking her to teach me the unit”，故选A。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“I couldn’t be too hard on her. So instead we started with me asking her some simple questions.”可知，当出现错误时，作者表现得耐心，故选C。 【33题详解】 最佳标题题。整篇文章通过让女儿教父亲来学习，表明从教中学习的道理，这种学习方式有助于提高理解，故选B。 第二节, 阅读还原 (本题共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项。(提示：每个选项只用一次，选项中有一项为多余选项) As we know, there are differences between Western culture and Chinese culture. ____34____.
