Many people say that they are working too many hours. They don’t have enough time to relax or stay with their family.
Working hours are different from one country to another. In France, people spend about 1,482 hours a year at work. In Mexico, however, people work about 2,246 hours a year. That means a Mexican worker works more than 700 hours a year than a French worker.
Why do people work so many hours? Some people work more hours because they want to make more money. However, many companies (公司) don’t pay overtime. Their workers don’t get more pay for more work. Some people think it’s their duty (责任) to work more hours. Some are afraid of losing their jobs if they don’t work more hours.
Many people say their vacations are too short. In France, people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. In Germany they get four to six weeks, and in the US, two weeks. One study shows less than half of workers use all their vacation days. There is a saying, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull (迟钝的) boy.” If that is true, there must be a lot of dull people in the world.

A. work in their companies B. make more money
C. relax themselves D. find a better job

How do you treat your books? Do you use a bookmark to avoid folding (折叠) a page and keep your books clean and tidy on a shelf? Or perhaps you pay less attention to their condition—you’re happy to take notes down the margins (页边空白) of a page. What’s your idea—do you think they should always be kept in good condition?
Yes. Books deserve our respect.
It is important to care for your books. This is especially true if the book costs a lot of money or is given to you as a present. It also won’t last long if they are damaged (破坏). If a book is full of ripped (撕破的) pages, it is less possible that a friend will want to pick it up and read. If you donate it to a charity shop, it is less possible that someone will buy it. Over time, treating books badly could become a bad habit.
NO. It doesn’t matter if you just read.
One of the great things about an actual book is that readers can make it their own with notes. If it’s a gift, you can write a nice message. It can make a book feel personal and special to you. It doesn’t matter if this means that a book isn’t in perfect condition—you can always buy a new copy if the old one gets too damaged. In the end, writers just want people to read their stories: they don’t mind how or where people do it.
47. What is the passage about?
A. The discussion about how to treat our books with bookmarks.
B. The discussion about whether we should keep books well.
C. The reasons for reading more books in daily life.
D. The reasons for treating books in a friendly way.
48. What does the underlined sentence “Books deserve our respect.” mean?
A. Books are worth our respect. B. Books help us win respect.
C. Books teach us to show respect. D. Books catch people’s attention.
49. According to the passage, someone may not want to pick the book to read if ________.
A. it costs a lot of money B. it is a present
C. it is full of ripped pages D. it is from a charity shop
50. Some people think keeping books in good condition is unimportant probably because ________.
A. they like untidy books better than those in good condition
B. they would rather throw the old books away
C. they think books with messages may make people less interested
D they care more about writers’ stories than how books are kept
【答案】47. B 48. A 49. C 50. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要是关于是否应该好好爱护书本的讨论。
【47题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“What’s your idea—do you think they should always be kept in good condition?”可知本文主要是关于我们是否应该好好爱护书本的讨论。故选B。
【48题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一个表格“It is important to care for your books. This is especially true if the book costs a lot of money or is given to you as a present.”可知爱护你的书是很重要的。如果这本书花了很多钱或是作为礼物送给你,这一点尤其正确。可推测这是表示“书籍值得我们尊重”,故选A。
【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一个表格“ If a book is full of ripped (撕破的) pages, it is less possible that a friend will want to pick it up and read. ”可知如果一本书被撕得满页都是,朋友就不太可能愿意拿起来阅读了。故选C。
【50题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二个表格“In the end, writers just want people to read their stories: they don’t mind how or where people do it.”可知归根结底,作家们只是希望人们能读到他们的故事:他们并不介意人们是如何或在哪里读到的。由此推测,人们觉得好好保存书并不是很重要因为他们更在乎作者的故事。故选D。
D

“Why, yes. You’re right. But how do you know these things?”
“I see a return ticket in your glove. I see fresh mud on the left arm of your dress. Now tell us your problem.”
“My name is Helen Stoner” she states, “My mother and father are dead. I am living with my stepfather (继父), Dr. Grimesby Roylott. He comes from a rich family. But they are no longer rich. They have nothing except a small piece of land and a huge old house. We are living in the house. Dr. Roylott is using my mother’s money for expenses (开支). Part of it was for my sister and me. It was for our marriages.”
Holmes is sitting in his chair. His eyes are closed. He is listening carefully to Helen’s story. He hears every detail.
Helen continues. “My stepfather has no friends. He fights with everyone. He is strong and gets angry quickly. Everyone is afraid of him.”
“He has no friends at all?” asks Holmes.
“No. He talks to no one except the gypsies (吉普赛人). They are poor people who travel from place to place. A band of gypsies is staying on our land right now.”
“Are you and your sister afraid of the gypsies?”
“My dear Mr. Holmes. You are making me so sad. My sister is dead. That is why I am standing here in this room.”

My girls were jumping up and down and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They were having so much fun.

The guide stopped, looked at me and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place. ” “Wow, ” I said, “I never thought about butterflies like that. Thank you. ”
After we said goodbye, I couldn’t stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer the world with the time we have. When we focus our gifts on taking care of each other every day, we can make a difference.

【66题详解】
句意:我们确认吉姆被锁在小屋里。根据“We confirmed that Jim was...”可知,主语Jim与动词lock“锁”为逻辑上的动宾关系,此处应用被动语态,was后应接动词的过去分词。故填locked。
【67题详解】
句意:他看到我们非常惊讶。根据“We came up under Jim’s bed.”可知,我们来到吉姆的床底下,他看到我们非常惊讶。短语be surprised to do sth.意为“对某事感到惊讶”,符合此处语境。故填surprised。
【68题详解】
句意:他给西拉斯叔叔写了一封信,告诉他有人正计划偷吉姆。汤姆想制造一场冒险,所以他写信给Silas叔叔说有人打算偷走吉姆,这里的“偷”用英文表达就是steal,故填steal。
【69题详解】
句意:我们等待解救吉姆的机会。wait for意为“等待”,根据上下文逻辑,故填waited for。
【70题详解】
句意:“过来,吉姆!”汤姆低声说。汤姆在鼓励吉姆快点行动,Come on常用于鼓励、催促别人,符合此处语境,故填Come on。
【71题详解】
句意:我们听到有人大喊:“小偷偷了吉姆!” hear somebody shouting表示“听到某人喊叫”,somebody表示“某人”,符合句子结构和语境,故填somebody。
【72题详解】
句意:我们继续跑,就像脚下着了火一般。like our feet were on fire是一种形象的表达方式,意思是“好像我们的脚着火了 (跑得非常快)”,故填on fire。
【73题详解】
句意:不幸的是,他的裤子被钉子钩住了。此处应用副词修饰整个句子,表示观点和看法,unlucky的副词形式为unluckily,放在句首时第一个字母需大写。故填Unluckily。
【74题详解】
句意:我们跑到河边跳进独木舟后,我们累得气喘吁吁躺下了。out of breath意为“喘不过气来;上气不接下气”,符合当时的情境,故填out of breath。
【75题详解】
句意:他的腿在流血,但他认为这是冒险的一部分。根据空格前的was可知,该句应为过去进行时,表示吉姆的腿正在流血,bleed应变为现在分词形式bleeding。故填bleeding。
根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,使短文意思完整,每空一词。

【77题详解】

【82题详解】
句意:刘琨虽然还很困,但还是欣然答应了祖逖的请求。根据“... he was still sleepy, Liu Kun agreed with Zu Ti gladly.”可知,前后句为让步关系,根据首字母T可知应用though引导让步状语从句,句首首字母大写。故填(T)hough。

Many people say that they are working too many hours. They don’t have enough time to relax or stay with their family.
Working hours are different from one country to another. In France, people spend about 1,482 hours a year at work. In Mexico, however, people work about 2,246 hours a year. That means a Mexican worker works more than 700 hours a year than a French worker.
Why do people work so many hours? Some people work more hours because they want to make more money. However, many companies (公司) don’t pay overtime. Their workers don’t get more pay for more work. Some people think it’s their duty (责任) to work more hours. Some are afraid of losing their jobs if they don’t work more hours.
Many people say their vacations are too short. In France, people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. In Germany they get four to six weeks, and in the US, two weeks. One study shows less than half of workers use all their vacation days. There is a saying, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull (迟钝的) boy.” If that is true, there must be a lot of dull people in the world.

How do you treat your books? Do you use a bookmark to avoid folding (折叠) a page and keep your books clean and tidy on a shelf? Or perhaps you pay less attention to their condition—you’re happy to take notes down the margins (页边空白) of a page. What’s your idea—do you think they should always be kept in good condition?
Yes. Books deserve our respect.
It is important to care for your books. This is especially true if the book costs a lot of money or is given to you as a present. It also won’t last long if they are damaged (破坏). If a book is full of ripped (撕破的) pages, it is less possible that a friend will want to pick it up and read. If you donate it to a charity shop, it is less possible that someone will buy it. Over time, treating books badly could become a bad habit.
NO. It doesn’t matter if you just read.
One of the great things about an actual book is that readers can make it their own with notes. If it’s a gift, you can write a nice message. It can make a book feel personal and special to you. It doesn’t matter if this means that a book isn’t in perfect condition—you can always buy a new copy if the old one gets too damaged. In the end, writers just want people to read their stories: they don’t mind how or where people do it.
47. What is the passage about?

B. The discussion about whether we should keep books well.

A few years ago, my husband and I were on an island for a weekend with our 3- and 4-year-old daughters. As we went back and thought about what to do next, our girls jumped in and told us exactly what they wanted to do. “We want to go to the butterfly museum, ” said Ariela and Eliana.
As soon as we walked into the main area of the museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies, all flapping (拍打) their colourful wings.
My girls were jumping up and down and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They were having so much fun. I turned to our museum tour guide because I was curious and asked, “How long do butterflies live? ” She said, “About ten days. ” “What can butterflies do in ten days? ” I asked. The guide stopped, looked at me and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place. ” “Wow, ” I said, “I never thought about butterflies like that. Thank you. ”
After we said goodbye, I couldn’t stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer the world with the time we have. When we focus our gifts on taking care of each other every day, we can make a difference.
Appreciate(感激) the influence you can have on your family, friends, co-workers and neighbours. Like a butterfly, you have your own way of making the world a little better for everyone.
