Activities are planned in more than twenty countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.Experts say people around the world wash their hands but very few use soap at socalled extremely important moments. These include after using the toilet, after cleaning a baby and before touching food.Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Public Private Partnership for handwashing with soap. The goal, they say, is to create a culture of handwashing with soap. The organizers say all soaps are equally effective at removing diseasecausing germs. They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap. Rub it into all areas, including under the fingernails. Then, wash well under running water. Finally, dry your hands with a clean cloth.The Partnership says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend washing. Soap also helps to breakup the dirt that holds most of the germs. And it usually leaves a pleasant smell, which increases the chances that people will wash again.It also says that washing hands with soap before eating and after using the toilet could save more lives than any medicine. It could help reduce cases of diarrhea, which is the second leading cause of child deaths, killing more than one and a half million children a year，by almost half.1What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?ATo keep healthy by washing hands.BTo wash hands with soap.CTo take action to wash hands.DTo wash hands often.答案：B主旨大意題。結(jié)合全文，尤其是第一段第二句可知，作者寫(xiě)這篇文章意在告訴人們用肥皂洗手。2Which of the following is the right way to wash hands?aWashing hands well under running water.bCovering hands with soap.cDrying hands.dRubbing soap into all areas.eWetting hands.Aacbed BedabcCacbde Debdac答案：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第三段介紹了洗手的正確方法：wet your hands；cover them with soap；rub it into all areas；wash well under running water；dry your hands with a clean cloth。因此D項(xiàng)的排序正確。3According to the last paragraph, diarrhea is a disease that _.Akills half of the kids in the developing countries a yearBcauses the greatest number of child deathsCcan be prevented to some degree by washing hands with soapDcant be cured without washing hands答案：C推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段可知，痢疾是造成兒童死亡的第二大原因，使用肥皂洗手可使痢疾患者的人數(shù)減少。由此可推知用肥皂洗手在某種程度上可避免痢疾的發(fā)生。1remove v. 去除，清除 2.germ n. 細(xì)菌break up 分解BFor the eager prankster (惡作劇者), nothing beats April Fools Day, a lighthearted tradition thats several hundred years old. A lot of people think April Fools Day is just obnoxious,_and just wish it would stop. But people who love pranks really love the day and refuse to giveup the tradition. The origins of April Fools Day are still unclear. The most popular one is that France changed its calendar in the 1500s so that the New Year would begin in January to match the Roman calendar instead of the start of spring in late March or early April. However word of the change traveled slowly, and many people in country areas continued to celebrate the New Year in the spring. These country people became known as “April fools”But according to Alex Boese, the French story is completely wrong, because the day that the French celebrated the beginning of the year legally was Easter Day, so it never really was connected with April first. Boese believes instead that April Fools Day simply grew out of ageold European spring festivals of renewal， in which pranks are common.Joseph Boskin, a professor of American humor at BostonUniversity, has offered his own interpretation of the holidays roots. In 1983, Boskin told a reporter that the idea came from Roman pranksters during the time of Constantine in the third and fourth centuries AD. As the story goes, pranksters successfully asked the ruler to allow one of their elected members to be king for a day. So, on April first, Constantine handed over the reins of the Roman Empire for one day to King Kugel, his prankster. Kugel decided that the day forever would be a day of absurdity.Kugel, accidently, is an Eastern European dish that one of Boskins friends had been expecting.4The underlined word “obnoxious” in Paragraph 1 means “_”Aexciting Bdisappointing Cboring Dinstructive答案：C詞義猜測(cè)題。下半句提到“just wish it would stop”，既然希望它被取消，那么這些人應(yīng)該是覺(jué)得它很乏味無(wú)聊。故答案為C。5According to the French story, April Fools Day _.Ais the result of the change of the calendarBwas widely accepted all over the worldChas a history of about half a centuryDhas been celebrated in Roman since the 1500s答案：A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段可知，愚人節(jié)當(dāng)時(shí)是在法國(guó)產(chǎn)生的，是由于日歷變更通知不及時(shí)而造成的，因此正確選項(xiàng)為A。6According to Joseph Boskin, April Fools Day _.Acan date back to 1,900 years agoBcame from a reporterChad roots in the RomansDwas decided by Constantine答案：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第四段中Joseph Boskin的看法，愚人節(jié)產(chǎn)生在公元3到4世紀(jì)的羅馬，在君士坦丁一世時(shí)期由愛(ài)開(kāi)玩笑的人Kugel所創(chuàng)立。故答案為C。7It can be inferred according to the text that _.AKing Kugel was a real historical characterBJoseph Boskins story about April Fools Day was a humorCthe text referred to two origins of April Fools DayDwhere April Fools Day is from has been clear to us all答案：B推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后兩段可知，Joseph Boskin對(duì)愚人節(jié)的解釋?xiě)?yīng)該是一個(gè)幽默而已，一方面它沒(méi)有歷史證據(jù)，另一方面，里面的那個(gè)當(dāng)了一天國(guó)王的人的姓名還與Boskin的朋友一直期待的一道菜同名。故答案為B。1renewal n. 更新 2.interpretation n. 解釋3rein n. 統(tǒng)治 4.absurdity n. 荒唐give up 放棄語(yǔ)法填空Celebrated across Thailand, the Songkran Festival is a holiday _1_ welcomes the New Year with a countrywide water fight.

He enjoys watch my elderly neighbor in her garden. Although he wont let her to touch him, he always keeps an eye on her. One afternoon I heard Dexter calling strange. When I reached the door to check on him, his calling stops, so I headed back to kitchen. Just as I did, his calling started again. I stepped outside to find Dexter sit next to my elderly neighbor who had fallen. He didnt have the strength to get up or shout for help. Dexter didnt leave her sides until help arrived. Without Dexter, she may not have been found in time.答案：About one year ， we got a lovely cat named Dexter. He enjoys my elderly neighbor in her garden.

Without Dexter, she not have been found in time.難項(xiàng)分析：第一處：beforeago考查副詞。由下文的時(shí)態(tài)為一般過(guò)去時(shí)可知，此處指從此刻起若干時(shí)間以前，故用ago。第七處：sitsitting考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。此處為“findsb.賓補(bǔ)”結(jié)構(gòu)。Dexter與sit之間為主動(dòng)關(guān)系，故用現(xiàn)在分詞作賓補(bǔ)。第十處：maymight考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞。此處在敘述過(guò)去發(fā)生的事情，表“也許”，故用might。
