必修5Unit 5First aid一、閱讀理解Almost no one can resist a good mystery novel or detective novel, so these novels sell thousands of copies each year. And many readers regard famous mystery author Agatha Christie as Queen of Crime, whose stories are known for their tense atmosphere and strong psychological suspense and have a great effect on the English mystery novels.Christie was born in September 1890 in England. When she was growing up, her mother often told her stories. Christie loved these stories, which took her into a world of fantasy. Christies mother also encouraged her to write from a young age and also took her to travel a lot.She married Archie Christie in 1914 at the beginning of World War . During the war, Christie wrote her first detective story: The Mysterious Affair at Styles. She chose the crime, and then invented a detective named Hercule Poirot, ranking second to Sherlock Holmes, to solve it. She sent the book to a publisher, but it was rejected.After the war ended, Christie sent her book to more publishers, and finally, in 1920, one published it. She earned just $25 for it. Over the next few years, Christie wrote more books and short stories, gaining experience as a writer. In spite of her literary success, life was not going well at home. In 1928, Archie and Agatha got a divorce(離婚). A short time later, she met a young archaeologist, Max Mallowan. After getting married in 1930, they began to spend some time each year in the Middle East, which provided settings for some of Christies novels, such as Murder at the Vicarage(1930), Murder on the Orient Express (1934)and Death on the Nile(1939).Christie continued writing for the rest of her life. When she died in January 1976, readers around the world mourned(哀悼)her death. But her tales of mystery continue to be loved by new generations of readers.

The difference was that I wouldnt have a job to take in the morning. I used to be a VP in technology for a national bank until it was closed.Id put my heart and soul into my job. Not only did I work long hours, but I was on call 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays. My kids joked that though they were the teenagers, I was the one who was glued to the cell phone and had to be told not to text at the dinner table.My wife, Michelle, went back to work full-time once my job was threatened. But our kids would be going to college our son, TJ, was a high school senior, and the girls, Sarah and Tara, were in ninth grade and I wanted to give them the education and opportunities they deserved. God, if I cant provide for my family, I asked, what good am I?A ray of light streamed through the window, as if beckoning(召喚) me. I opened the door and stepped out into our yard. The lawn, the maple tree planted when I was young and the flower beds were overrun with weeds. They needed pruning (修剪).Treasure this time. The thought came out of nowhere. But clear, clear as it could be. I shook my head. I couldnt get distracted by random thoughts. The clock was ticking. I needed to get busy finding a new job.I went up to the house. Im sorry, Dad, TJ said. I know how much your job meant to you. His concern was mirrored in the girls faces. Then Michelle added, Its going to be okay. Well get through this together. Maybe you should consider this time as a break. You deserve one.A break? Was she kidding? There was no time to rest. If anything, I needed to work even harder.注意：1.所續(xù)寫短文的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；2.應(yīng)使用5個(gè)以上短文中標(biāo)有下劃線的關(guān)鍵詞語；3.續(xù)寫部分分為兩段，每段的開頭語已為你寫好；4.續(xù)寫完成后，請(qǐng)用下劃線標(biāo)出你所使用的關(guān)鍵詞語。Paragraph 1：The next morning I got up before everyone else and opened my laptop._Paragraph 2：Just a few hours here and there, the new lawn began to take shape and so did I._前文概要：我曾經(jīng)是一家銀行的副總裁，對(duì)工作盡心盡力，堪稱工作狂，連院子里的草坪和花壇都無暇顧及。然而銀行倒閉后，我失業(yè)了，我的妻子不得不重返職場(chǎng)，而且此時(shí)家里還有三個(gè)正在接受教育的孩子。為了更好地維持我的家庭，給孩子們提供他們應(yīng)得的教育和機(jī)會(huì)，我深知自己應(yīng)該再找一份新工作。雖然妻子和孩子們都在安慰我，但我卻覺得自己需要更加努力地工作。Paragraph 1的開頭是第二天早上，我在其他人起床之前就起來了，并打開了我的筆記本電腦，結(jié)合上文中的finding a new jobI needed to work even harder的內(nèi)容可知，此處可能會(huì)涉及作者找工作的相關(guān)內(nèi)容。由Paragraph 2的開頭可知，該段可能還會(huì)涉及作者決定修剪草坪的內(nèi)容?？赡軙?huì)用到的關(guān)鍵詞有：Michelle， our yard， flower beds， a new job等。Paragraph 2的開頭是到處忙活了幾個(gè)小時(shí)之后，新的草坪開始成形，一個(gè)全新的我也出現(xiàn)了，這暗示該段可能會(huì)涉及作者從修剪草坪這樣的事情中得到的收獲等內(nèi)容?？赡軙?huì)用到的關(guān)鍵詞有：my family， concern， treasure等。
