I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day. I believed that I was right and he was wrong, and Ben believed that I was wrong and he was right. Our teacher, a kind and smart lady, decided to teach us a lesson. She brought us to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large and round object I could clearly see that it was black. The teacher asked us what colour the object was. To my surprise, Ben answered “white”. I couldn’t believe he said the object was white! “Clearly, it was black!”. Another argument started between Ben and me, this time about the colour of the object. The teacher told me to go and stand where Ben was standing and told him to go and stand where I was standing. We changed places, and now she asked me what colour the object was. I had to answer, “White.” It was an object with two differently coloured sides—from his side it was white, while from my side it was black. “Boys, now, what do you say?” The teacher smiled at us. Ben has been my best friend ever since. My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: When you disagree with others, you’d better be in their shoes. That will help you look at the thing through their eyes, and truly understand their ideas and ways of thinking. 5. How did the writer feel when Ben answered “White” in Paragraph 2? A. Afraid. B. Surprised. C. Pleased. D. Thankful. 6. The writer gave two different answers because ________.

Some dislike it and some love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport. ②British people use trains a lot. This is especially for people who are traveling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It’s much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and slowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are traveling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam. ③Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of traveling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality (质量) tests when they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track (轨道). ④What’s more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phones. ⑤With the development of the modern technology and transport, travelling by train may become less and less popular. But there will be always people who enjoy the good service and beautiful scenery along the railway. 13. The writer begins the passage by ________. A. telling a story B. listing numbers C. giving a fact D. asking a question 14. The third paragraph mainly talks about the ________ of trains. A. speed B. safety C. services D. problems 15. What can we know from the passage? A. People can travel from London to Paris in less than 2 hours. B. People can do their work with personal computers on the train. C. People have to wait till they get off the train in order to have some food. D. The trains are only checked for quality reasons before they are used. 16. What is the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③④⑤ B. ①②③④/⑤ C. ①/②③/④⑤ D. ①/②③④/⑤ 【答案】13. C 14. B 15. B 16. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了火车作为公共交通的优势，以英国火车为例，阐述了其速度快、安全、舒适且服务优质的特点，同时提及火车出行的发展趋势。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Some people have to use public transport...Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.”可知，作者开篇是陈述“若人人开车会有交通问题，而火车是好的公共交通方式”这一事实。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of traveling on the ground...quality tests...safety checks”可知，该段主要围绕火车的“安全性”展开。故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They also provide food services and power plugs for personal computers or mobile phones.”可知，火车提供电源插头，人们可以用个人电脑工作。故选B。 【16题详解】 篇章结构题。第①段总起，引出火车是优质公共交通；第②③④段分别从速度、安全、服务三个维度阐述英国火车的优势；第⑤段说明火车出行的发展趋势。结构为“①/②③④/⑤”，故选D。 第二节 E 阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 These days, people have very busy lives, working or studying and spending time with friends and family.

I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day. I believed that I was right and he was wrong, and Ben believed that I was wrong and he was right. Our teacher, a kind and smart lady, decided to teach us a lesson. She brought us to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large and round object I could clearly see that it was black. The teacher asked us what colour the object was. To my surprise, Ben answered “white”. I couldn’t believe he said the object was white! “Clearly, it was black!”. Another argument started between Ben and me, this time about the colour of the object. The teacher told me to go and stand where Ben was standing and told him to go and stand where I was standing. We changed places, and now she asked me what colour the object was. I had to answer, “White.” It was an object with two differently coloured sides—from his side it was white, while from my side it was black. “Boys, now, what do you say?” The teacher smiled at us. Ben has been my best friend ever since. My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: When you disagree with others, you’d better be in their shoes. That will help you look at the thing through their eyes, and truly understand their ideas and ways of thinking. 5. How did the writer feel when Ben answered “White” in Paragraph 2? A. Afraid. B. Surprised. C. Pleased. D. Thankful. 6. The writer gave two different answers because ________.

A. be angry with the teacher B. forget the arguments C. sit in the front of the class D. be kind to Ben 8. The purpose of the passage is to tell us to ________. A. look at things in another way B. think carefully before we do anything C. have different ideas at any time D. be friendly to others C Eating chocolate while reading can make it fun.

He lives in a small house with his mom, dad and his grandparents. His father works in a factory. Mr. Bucket works from morning to night every day, but sometimes, he still buys Charlie some chocolate.

If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport. ②British people use trains a lot. This is especially for people who are traveling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It’s much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and slowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are traveling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam. ③Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of traveling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality (质量) tests when they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track (轨道). ④What’s more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phones. ⑤With the development of the modern technology and transport, travelling by train may become less and less popular. But there will be always people who enjoy the good service and beautiful scenery along the railway. 13. The writer begins the passage by ________. A. telling a story B. listing numbers C. giving a fact D. asking a question 14. The third paragraph mainly talks about the ________ of trains. A. speed B. safety C. services D. problems 15. What can we know from the passage? A. People can travel from London to Paris in less than 2 hours. B. People can do their work with personal computers on the train. C. People have to wait till they get off the train in order to have some food. D. The trains are only checked for quality reasons before they are used. 16. What is the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③④⑤ B. ①②③④/⑤ C. ①/②③/④⑤ D. ①/②③④/⑤ 第二节 E 阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 These days, people have very busy lives, working or studying and spending time with friends and family.
