Unit 1 Friendship李仕才*閱讀理解He was there every morning, sitting motionless on the front steps of his house. In the morning light, I could see the shadows that were etched(蝕刻)deep within the lines surrounding his eyes.Each morning I walked this route with my daughter to her kindergarten class. We were new to the neighborhood so that I didnt know many of my neighbors. On one beautiful autumn morning, as we passed his house, my daughter called out to him, “Hi, Mr. Man!” Always the outgoing child, I wasnt surprised at her enthusiasm. But her cheerfulness soon faded when the man didnt look at her and say “Hi” back.As we continued on our walk to school, my daughter asked why the man didnt want to say hi to her. Because I didnt have an answer, I said simply, “Maybe he is having a bad day.” later I knew that Bob lost his wife in a car accident.A few days later, as we approached Bobs house on our way to school, my daughter called out “Hi Mr. Man!” and as usual, he didnt respond. But then she ran onto his front lawn and picked up a beautiful red autumn leaf. She continued up one step and handed it to him. I held my breath.As she skipped back to me, she said, “See you tomorrow, Mr. Man!” This time, he acknowledged her. In a soft gentle voice, he thanked her and said, “See you tomorrow.”From then on, Bob and my daughter exchanged greeting each morning. Our friendship with Bob continued for many years. But, the sweetest day is when Bob attended my daughters high school graduation. Bob gave my daughter a gift-a book on identifying various plants and trees. There, tucked in the pages that described an oak tree, was the leaf my daughter had given to Mr. Man when they first met.

This _5_ (lose) was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the food. Wood became very expensive and hard to get, so the Chinese had to either find a substitute for their _6_ (value) wood, or learn how to use it better. There werent any substitutes, so people found ways to economize.In order to economize in cooking, they had to use very little wood. So they started cutting their meat and vegetables _7_ small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That way, the food cooked _8_ (fast) and they saved more fuel. The food _9_ (prepare) in this way kept its fresh flavorand its this flavor _10_ attracts people from other countries to the art of Chinese cooking.1_2._3._4._5._6._7._8._9._10._篇章導(dǎo)讀：本文是一篇說明文。這篇文章主要講述了中國食物美味的原因。在很多年前，由于中國的木柴缺乏，人們?yōu)榱斯?jié)約木柴，就把食物切成小塊烹飪，食物很快就熟了，而且保持了鮮美的味道。1where考查定語從句的引導(dǎo)詞。分析句子成分可知，設(shè)空處所填詞引導(dǎo)定語從句，補(bǔ)充說明先行詞Chinatown，關(guān)系詞在非限制性定語從句中作狀語，表示地點(diǎn)，故填where。2had noticed考查動詞的時(shí)態(tài)。在“It/This/That be the序數(shù)詞timethat .”句型中，若前面的be動詞是一般過去時(shí)，that從句使用過去完成時(shí)，故填had noticed。3it考查代詞。此處it代指前面的the

fire”可知，此處表示一場火災(zāi)開始了。D項(xiàng)意為“開始，使開始發(fā)生”，符合語境。prevent“阻止”；permit“允許”；witness“目擊”。2D直到大火堵住了通往唯一的門的路，我們才發(fā)現(xiàn)大火。此處考查“not.until.”結(jié)構(gòu)。3A根據(jù)語境可知，“我”想(wanted)跳過籬笆，到達(dá)安全地帶，可是大火包圍了我們。manage“設(shè)法做成”；promise“許諾”；happen“發(fā)生”。4B由上文可知，大火包圍了我們，“我”只能驚恐地看著火焰繼續(xù)上升。in horror“驚恐地”；in anger“生氣地”；in excitement“興奮地”；in embarrassment“尷尬地”。5C根據(jù)第二段第一句中的“my father began telling us about his days as a firefighter”可知，父親曾經(jīng)是一名消防員。carpenter“木匠，木工”；electrician“電工”；educator“教育工作者”。6A本題考查be armed with的省略結(jié)構(gòu)作狀語，意為“用裝備或武裝”，故選A項(xiàng)。satisfied“滿意的，滿足的”；shared“共有的”；identified“可辨認(rèn)的”。7C根據(jù)語境可知，父親應(yīng)該是沖(dashed)向最近的池塘。slide“滑行”。8C根據(jù)上下文可知，此處指開始用水噴向火焰(flames)。9D根據(jù)語境可知，此處表示然而很快，風(fēng)又變強(qiáng)了。pick up“變大，變強(qiáng)”，符合語境。die off“相繼死去，先后死去”；take on“呈現(xiàn)，開始具有(某種特征、面貌等)”；turn out“結(jié)果是，證明是”。10B根據(jù)下文中的“he jumped into the truck”可知，父親走向卡車。11B考查連詞。A項(xiàng)意為“如果”，引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句；B項(xiàng)意為“一就，一旦”，引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語從句；C項(xiàng)“自以來，因?yàn)椋热弧?；D項(xiàng)“當(dāng)時(shí)候，盡管”。由上下文可知，此處指父親一到達(dá)大門，就跳進(jìn)了卡車?yán)?。故選B項(xiàng)。12A根據(jù)語境可知，父親開著卡車從火中穿過。through“通過，穿過”，表示運(yùn)動發(fā)生在某物的空間內(nèi)；along“沿著”；over“在上面”；across“從一邊到另一邊，橫過”，表示動作發(fā)生在物體的表面。13B根據(jù)語境可知，父親開著卡車從火中穿過，火最終被撲滅了，所以母親睜大(wide)眼睛看著父親。14A根據(jù)下文中的“asking him what other jobs he had done”可知，我們是很好奇的(curious)。suspicious“懷疑的，猜疑的”；concerned“(與某事)有關(guān)的，有牽連的”； anxious“焦慮的，不安的，擔(dān)心的”。15C根據(jù)語境可知，我們問父親在退休(retired)之前還做過其他什么工作。下文中的“to retire”也是提示。16A根據(jù)第三段對父親退休前工作的描述可知，父親做過很多事情，所以此處指除了做腦外科手術(shù)之外，父親幾乎什么都做過。everything except“除了之外什么都”符合語境。17D由上下文可知，那場事故迫使(forced)父親退休。18B根據(jù)上下文可知，此處指那場事故(accident)。attempt“嘗試”； explanation“解釋”。19Bbe proud of “為感到驕傲”符合語境。ashamed“(因自己所做的事而)羞恥的，內(nèi)疚的，慚愧的”。20C根據(jù)上文可知，此處指他們的技能(skills)有朝一日可能拯救你的生命。*短文改錯(cuò)In order to promote participation in outdoors exercise, our school organized an activity to climb Mount Tai on April 10. The majority of my classmates joined the activity.Early in the morning, having assembled outside the school gate, we head straight to Mount Tai. We set out for the top in high spirits when the moment we arrived at the foot of the mountain. In a course of the climb, we cooperated with each other to pass the rocky and steep areas. Laughing and cheering, we eventually reached the summit, which we were greeted by the bright sunshine and fresh air. Viewing from the top, the city was beautiful. Bathed in the warm sunshine, we entertained us with stories, songs, dances and game.This event was extremely beneficial for not only did we take a break from our heavy school workload, but we also learned how to cooperate. Therefore, we strongly suggest that similar events are held every year!答案：In order to promote participation in exercise, our school organized an activity to climb Mount Tai on April 10.
