It was November 2006 and the news had reported gusty winds.When the winds started to get strong I shut the computer down and tried to phone my husband.I left a message telling him the winds were blowing at 80 to 90km/hr.As I hung up the phone,I heard a tree crack.I went outside and stood in the driveway.Another tree exploded and my heart was racing. When the school bus carrying the youngsters arrived,I ran to get them.No sooner had we made it to the house than another tree exploded.The children were clearly scared,so I loaded them up into the car and we parked in the middle of the yard,where no trees could land on us,it was starting to get dark. My oldest son didn't come home on the bus and my husband was stranded at work.I called the high school and reached my son.He said he was stranded and didn't know what to do.I called a friend in town for help.He managed to get my son home to me.Finally,my husband managed to get home. 56 第七周 We had been prepared for such events,as we had a generator,candles,a wood stove,fresh water,batteries and two freezers full of food.We were without power for five days.But we didn't panic-we had all the emergency equipment we needed.Thankfully,none of our neighbors were injured,but the damage was extensive.We are witnessing climate change.We need to be pre- pared. 1.When did the mother hear a tree crack for the third time?

Ⅱ.七选五 There was a survey of the people who were born from 1980 to 2000,asking them what their most important life goals were.Over 80 percent said it was to get rich.1 We're constantly told to devote more to our work,to push harder and to achieve more.We're given the impression that these are the things that we need to go after to have a good life.But is that the truth?2 But what if we could study people from the time when they were teenagers all the way into old age to see what really keeps people happy and healthy?The Harvard Study of Adult Devel- opment did it.For 75 years,they've tracked the lives of 724 men.Studies like this are extremely rare.Almost all projects of this kind fall apart within a decade because too many people drop out of the study.3 Or the researchers can't get together.But through a combination of luck and the persistence of several generations of researchers,this study has survived. So what have they learned?The conclusion is that it's not wealth or fame that counts.4 They've learned three big lessons about relationships.Firstly,people who are more socially con- nected to family,to friends and to community are happier and physically healthier.The second is that it's not just the number of friends you have but the quality of your close relationships that matters.And the third is that good relationships don't just protect our bodies.5 A.They can even protect our brains. B.To become famous came second. C.Or funding for the research dries up. D.The good life is built with relationships. E.It turns out that being in conflict is bad for our health. F.It is good relationships that keep us happier and healthier. G.To be frank,sometimes wealth and fame can make people happy. -57参考答案 C.excitedly激动地：D.proudly自豪地。根据上文I 5.difficulties考查名词单复数。many修怖可数名词的复 didn't pick up any more passengers that shift,.可知作者 数形式，所以填difficulties。 没有再接乘客，而是漫无目的地开着。故选A。 6.10考查固定短语。“第三文化的孩子们”可能不能让他 15.D考查形容词词义辨析。句意：如果那个女人遇到了 们自己完全适用于他们新的环境。adapt oneself to使自 一个不耐烦的司机呢？A.generous慷概的；B.enthusi- 己适应，是固定短语，所以填t0。 astic热情的：C.cautious谨慎的：D.impatient没有耐心 7.to develop考查不定式。这里it是形式宾语，不定式是 的。根据第二段内容可知，作者先是帮老太太拿箱子， 真正的宾语，所以填to develop。 接着又返回帮助老太太上车，可见作者对老太太很有耐 8.than考查语义理解。此外，对于一个“第三文化的孩子” 心。故选D。 来说，搬到其他国家比回到他们的祖国更容易。这里表 幸福星期五 示比较，所以填than。 9.where考查定语从句。9 she was born.是一个定语 【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。本文介绍了作者从中国搬 从句，关系词在从句中作地点状语，所以用关系副词 到美国之后，因为“尊老”的观念和中美文化差异的不同，导 where。 致工作中产生了一些误会，之后作者改变了自己对待老人 10.0r考查连词。她不知道任何关于当前的电视节目或者 的方式。 流行趋势。表示“或者”，所以填Or。 L.B细节理解题。极据第二段中“】told her that I had 第七周 made sure they got their food quickly because I always re- 启程星期一 spect the elderly..(我告诉她我已经确保他们会很快得到 食物，因为我总是尊重老人。)”可知，Jack很快就给这对 【语篇解读】本文讲述作者一家人遭遇大风天气，重点讲 夫妇送去了食物，因为他尊重老人。故选B。 述了作者在这种极端天气中的反应。好在作者平时在家中 2.C细节理解题。根据第二段中“1 told her that I had 就储备了很多应急物品。事实证明，有备才能无惠。 made sure they got their food quickly because I always re- L.D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“As I hung up the spect the elderly.As soon as I said that,her face showed phone,I heard a tree crack.I went outside and stood in great displeasure..(我告诉她，我确保他们能很快拿到食 the driveway..Another tree exploded.."和第三段的第二 物，因为我一向尊重老年人。我刚说完，她的脸上就露出 "No sooner had we made it to the house than another 非常不高兴的表情。)”可知，听到Jack称他们为老人时， tree exploded,”可知，作者刚把孩子接回到屋子里，就又 他们一，点也不高兴。故选C。 一次听到树断裂的声音，故选D。 3.B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In my village in Chi- 2.B推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“The children na,people are proud of being old..(在我中国的家乡，人们 were clearly scared,so I loaded them up into the car and 以老为自豪。)”可知，在Jack的家乡，人们以年老为荣。 we parked in the middle of the yard,where no trees could 故选B。 land on us,..”可知，作者带着孩子到车里并把车停在院 4,D细节理解题。根据最后一段中“After that,I changed 子中间，因为那里更安全。故选B。 the way I had been with older people,.(从那之后，我改变 3.C词义猜测题。画线部分所在句“My oldest son didn't 了对待老年人的方式。)”可知，经过这次经历，Jak改变 come home on the bus and my husband was stranded at 了与老年人相处的方式。故选D。 work."和下文“I called the high school and reached my son.He said he was stranded and didn't know what to 【语篇解读】这篇文章主要讲述了“第三文化的孩子们”这 do.”中都出现了stranded,由此可知该词表示的动作适用 个术语的出现背景以及“第三文化的孩子们”的学习及心理 于my husband和my oldest son,且由第四段最后一句 现状 “Finally,my husband managed to get home..”可知，strand 1.totally考查刷词。修饰形容词different,用副词，所以 表示“滞留”，由此可知画线部分表示“被困在工作的地 填totally. 方”。故选C。 2.was used考查时态和语态。表示发生在过去的事情，用 4.D如节理解题。根据最后一段第三句“But we didn't 一般过去时。The term“third--culture kid”与use之间是 panic-we had all the emergency equipment we needed." 被动关系，用被动语态，综上所述，应该使用一般过去时 可知，作者家里没有电，但是作者一家却不慌张，因为他 的被动语态，所以填was used。 们做了充分的准备。故选D。 3.researching考查非谓语动词。research与其逻辑主语 Ⅱ.
