“Don’t forget to study for the history test on Friday,” Mrs. Beville told the class.
That night, Julie opened her textbook and read it several times. It was difficult for her to learn all the facts and dates. The following day, she decided to use library time to study. With her textbook open in front of her, she tried to make sense of all the facts and dates. But it was useless.
She lowered her head and hid her face in the pages of the book. “Impossible!”
“Julie!”
Julie looked up. Maria, from her class, was seated at a nearby table.
“Want to study history together?” Maria asked.
Julie picked up her things and joined Maria, who was sitting with some cards and colored pencils in front of her. On each card was a colorful painting.
Julie looked confused (困惑的), “I thought you were studying art.”
“This is how I study,” Maria said. “I like art, and the pictures help me recall facts. Sometimes memory isn’t enough, and I have to get creative.”
“I see,” said Julie, with interest.
“But right now, I’m having trouble answering this question.” She pointed to a line she’d written in the front of a card. What would you call someone who lives in Flanders?
After looking up the answer “Fleming”, Julie had a thought, “If Maria can use her artistic skills to study, then why can’t I use my own love of poems and wordplay (双关语)?”
Julie thought for a moment. “See the flamingo (火烈鸟) home…See the Fleming go home to Flanders. Yes! A Fleming lives in Flanders. Perfect! This is a clever use of words.”
“Hey, want to be study partners?” asked Maria.
“Certainly,” said Julie. Suddenly, studying didn’t seem so impossible if one could think more and learn in a creative way.
6. What was Julie’s problem in studying history?
A. She didn’t have any study partners.
B. She didn’t like reading her textbook.
C. She didn’t have enough time to finish homework.
D. She had difficulty remembering the facts and dates.
7. What was Maria’s method to review history?
A. By drawing pictures. B. By reading the textbook.
C. By asking Julie for help. D. By going over her notebook.
8. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?
A. 温故而知新。 B. 读万卷书, 行万里路。
C. 知之为知之, 不知为不知。 D. 学而不思则罔, 思而不学则殆。
9. How will Julie review history later?
A. By using more colorful pencils to study wisely.
B. By using her love of poems and wordplay to study.
C. By preparing for the history test with much more time.
D. By paying attention to memory instead of wordplay.
10. What can we learn from the story?
A. Memory is the key to learning. B. History learning needs partners.
C. Testing is necessary for learning. D. Creativity in learning is important.
【答案】6. D 7. A 8. D 9. B 10. D

【6题详解】

【7题详解】

【9题详解】
推理判断题。第十二段指出“If Maria can use her artistic skills to study, then why can’t I use my own love of poems and wordplay (双关语)?”,Julie之后会利用自己对诗歌和双关语的爱好来复习历史。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,故事告诉我们:学习中拥有创造力很重要。
C
We all know that the British people love their manners(礼仪).They are part of their national identity(特性),as well as having fish and chips and complaining about the weather.Recently I read online that they say “sorry” up to eight times a day.
After some research I have not been able to find any specific reasons why they are like this.I suppose,for centuries,manners,including how they behave at table and talk to other people have been one of the differences between the lower and upper classes and those manners show their social classes.Britain has traditionally been a quite conservative(保守的) country.There are many articles suggesting that their seemingly polite attitude of always saying “please” and “thank you” is quite false because it is impossible for a person to always feel that he or she wants to thank someone or say “please”.
Maybe it is for this reason that people are going one of two ways:they are too polite and hold back their feelings or they are not polite at all and express their true feelings directly.Some British people are tired of pretending that they are always happy and having to please others.But sometimes because they feel they have to be polite,they are prevented from saying what they truly think.
11. What don’t the British people often do?
A. Eat fish and chips. B. Have no quite good manners.
C. Be polite to others. D. Talk about the weather.
12. What do the British people say up to eight times every day?
A. Hello. B. Thank you. C. I don’t know. D. Sorry.
13. What does the writer think are the reasons why the British people are so polite?
①The upper classes should have good manners.
②They have learned much about politeness at school.
③They like to hold back their true feelings.
④They are not honest at all.
A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①③ D. ②④
14. What does the underlined word “pretending” mean in Chinese?
A. 打算 B. 假装 C. 想象 D. 体验
15. What is the best title of this passage?
A. British people are too polite B. British people should not be so polite
C. How to learn the British manners D. It’s time to change our manners
【答案】11. B 12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【分析】试题分析:短文论述了英国人的礼貌,作者认为英国人如此彬彬有礼的原因有两点:一是下层阶级和上层阶级之间存在一种差别,有礼貌表现了他们的社会阶层;二是他们喜欢抑制自己的真实感情。
【11题详解】
题意:英国人通常不做什么?考查细节理解和综合理解题。A. Eat fish and chips. 吃鱼和薯条;B. Have no quite good manners. 没有很好的(生活)方式;C. Be polite to others. 对别人有礼貌;D. Talk about the weather. 谈论天气。根据文意,短文介绍的就是英国人如何喜爱他们的生活方式的。A、C、D三项内容与他们的生活息息相关。故选B。
【12题详解】
题意:英国人每天说八次什么?考查细节理解题。根据第一节结尾的句子Recently I read online that they said “sorry” up to eight times a day.,可知选D。
【13题详解】
题意:作者认为英国人如此彬彬有礼的原因是什么?考查细节理解题。①The upper classes should have good manners.上流社会应该有礼貌;②They have learned much about politeness at school.他们在学校学到了很多关于礼貌的知识;③They like to hold back their true feelings.他们喜欢抑制自己的真实感情;④They are not honest at all.他们一点也不诚实。根据句子those manners show their social classes.和they are too polite and hold back their feelings,可知①③正确,故选C。
【14题详解】
题意:带下划线的单词“pretending”在汉语中是什么意思?考查词义理解题。联系上下文内容,可知是“装作”,故选B。
【15题详解】
题意:这篇文章最好的题目是什么?考查综合理解能力。A. British people are too polite英国人太有礼貌了;B. British people should not be so polite英国人不应该这么客气;C. How to learn the British manners如何学习英国礼仪;D. It's time to change our manners是我们改变态度的时候了。根据短文内容,可知选A。
点睛:对于阅读理解题,首先要粗读文章了解大意,其次通过细读,理解全文。在粗读的基础上,仔细阅读题后所给的题目,根据题目要求,再有重点地返回来仔细阅读。在阅读理解的题目中,所设问题主要有以下几种方式:找主题或概括文章的中心思想、就文中的具体事实和情节进行提问、根据文章的表层意思进行深层次的推理判断等,在细读时,要根据设问的方式,进行有侧重地阅读。1、概括文章中心思想。1)文首呈现主题句。2)文尾出现主题句。3)首尾呼应展现主题。4)文中表述主题。前面提出问题,文中的主题由随之陈述的细节或合乎逻辑的引申在文中导出,而后再做进一步的解释。5)文章没有主题句。在这种情况下,考生要把所有的细节综合起来。进行逻辑推理,概括归纳出文章的主题句。例如,第5小题,题意:这篇文章最好的题目是什么?考查综合理解能力。A. British people are too polite英国人太有礼貌了;B. British people should not be so polite英国人不应该这么客气;C. How to learn the British manners如何学习英国礼仪;D. It's time to change our manners是我们改变态度的时候了。根据短文内容,可知选A。2、掌握文章的具体事实和重要情节。在考题中,经常会见到就文章中某一具体事实和重要情节进行测试的题目。例如第2小题,题意:英国人每天说八次什么?考查细节理解题。根据第一节结尾的句子Recently I read online that they said “sorry” up to eight times a day.,可知选D。做这类题目,要求考生在阅读时要注意辨认和记忆具体事实,重要情节,事物的起因、过程、结果及发生的地点、时间等,这些都有可能作为测试点。还有一些测试题,要求考生在理解的基础上,通过自己的思维将理解的内容系统化,比如计算、排序等题型。还有些细节理解题是通过语句的同义转换来考查学生的理解力。

句意:这位一炮而红的歌手在11月28日醒来,发现自己获得了五项格莱美奖的提名。设空处和woke up是并列的谓语动作,时态是一般过去时,结合后文“自己被提名”的内容,find的过去式found,符合“醒来后发现提名消息”的语境。
【42题详解】
句意:流行音乐评论家Jon Caramanica写道:“Khalid似乎能让全世界都拜倒在他脚下的原因,是他的歌曲讲述了一个局外人的故事,这个故事可以团结和打动数百万人。”设空处作谓语,需填动词;结合“to have the world at his feet”可知,是“似乎”拥有世界,seem意为“似乎”,主语Khalid为第三人称单数,描述客观事实用一般现在时,故填seems。
【43题详解】
句意:事实上,Khalid一直在努力在讲述成长烦恼的歌词和他优美的嗓音之间找到平衡。此处修饰后面的动词tries,需要填入副词作状语,结合“tries to find a balance between his lyrics about growing pains and his beautiful voice”可知,表达他始终坚持做这件事,always“总是,一直”符合语境。
【44题详解】
句意:他在接受《娱乐周刊》采访时表示:“我们忘记了,在我们成长的时候,有很多人和我们处于同样的处境。”结合“we grow up”和“there are a lot of people who are in the same position as us”可知,是“当”我们长大时,此处引导时间状语从句,表达“当……的时候”的含义,when符合语境。
【45题详解】
句意:我们忘记这一点的原因是,并没有一个真正的声音能从年轻人的角度发声。此处是固定用法the reason why...,结合“we forget”可知,是“我们忘记的”原因,用关系副词why引导从句修饰先行词the reason,why符合语境。

“Don’t forget to study for the history test on Friday,” Mrs. Beville told the class.
That night, Julie opened her textbook and read it several times. It was difficult for her to learn all the facts and dates. The following day, she decided to use library time to study. With her textbook open in front of her, she tried to make sense of all the facts and dates. But it was useless.
She lowered her head and hid her face in the pages of the book. “Impossible!”
“Julie!”
Julie looked up. Maria, from her class, was seated at a nearby table.
“Want to study history together?” Maria asked.
Julie picked up her things and joined Maria, who was sitting with some cards and colored pencils in front of her. On each card was a colorful painting.
Julie looked confused (困惑的), “I thought you were studying art.”
“This is how I study,” Maria said. “I like art, and the pictures help me recall facts. Sometimes memory isn’t enough, and I have to get creative.”
“I see,” said Julie, with interest.
“But right now, I’m having trouble answering this question.” She pointed to a line she’d written in the front of a card. What would you call someone who lives in Flanders?
After looking up the answer “Fleming”, Julie had a thought, “If Maria can use her artistic skills to study, then why can’t I use my own love of poems and wordplay (双关语)?”
Julie thought for a moment. “See the flamingo (火烈鸟) home…See the Fleming go home to Flanders. Yes! A Fleming lives in Flanders. Perfect! This is a clever use of words.”
“Hey, want to be study partners?” asked Maria.
“Certainly,” said Julie. Suddenly, studying didn’t seem so impossible if one could think more and learn in a creative way.
6. What was Julie’s problem in studying history?
A. She didn’t have any study partners.
B. She didn’t like reading her textbook.
C. She didn’t have enough time to finish homework.
D. She had difficulty remembering the facts and dates.
7. What was Maria’s method to review history?
A. By drawing pictures. B. By reading the textbook.
C. By asking Julie for help. D. By going over her notebook.
8. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?
A. 温故而知新。 B. 读万卷书, 行万里路。
C. 知之为知之, 不知为不知。 D. 学而不思则罔, 思而不学则殆。
9. How will Julie review history later?
A. By using more colorful pencils to study wisely.
B. By using her love of poems and wordplay to study.
C. By preparing for the history test with much more time.
D. By paying attention to memory instead of wordplay.
10. What can we learn from the story?
A. Memory is the key to learning. B. History learning needs partners.
C. Testing is necessary for learning. D. Creativity in learning is important.

We all know that the British people love their manners(礼仪).They are part of their national identity(特性),as well as having fish and chips and complaining about the weather.Recently I read online that they say “sorry” up to eight times a day.
After some research I have not been able to find any specific reasons why they are like this.I suppose,for centuries,manners,including how they behave at table and talk to other people have been one of the differences between the lower and upper classes and those manners show their social classes.Britain has traditionally been a quite conservative(保守的) country.There are many articles suggesting that their seemingly polite attitude of always saying “please” and “thank you” is quite false because it is impossible for a person to always feel that he or she wants to thank someone or say “please”.
Maybe it is for this reason that people are going one of two ways:they are too polite and hold back their feelings or they are not polite at all and express their true feelings directly.Some British people are tired of pretending that they are always happy and having to please others.But sometimes because they feel they have to be polite,they are prevented from saying what they truly think.
11. What don’t the British people often do?
A. Eat fish and chips. B. Have no quite good manners.
C. Be polite to others. D. Talk about the weather.
12. What do the British people say up to eight times every day?
A. Hello. B. Thank you. C. I don’t know. D. Sorry.
13. What does the writer think are the reasons why the British people are so polite?
①The upper classes should have good manners.
②They have learned much about politeness at school.
③They like to hold back their true feelings.
④They are not honest at all.
A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①③ D. ②④
14. What does the underlined word “pretending” mean in Chinese?
A. 打算 B. 假装 C. 想象 D. 体验
15. What is the best title of this passage?
A. British people are too polite B. British people should not be so polite
C. How to learn the British manners D. It’s time to change our manners
D
