Jones grew up in South Carolina.He had heard painful stories of slavery 2 from his greatgrandmother.The picture on the money did not match the history of African American slaves that hed heard all his life.“I had never seen that type of picture on money before， ” he said. Jones wondered why slaves looked so happy.He started doing research. Searching for and finding the answers to his questions changed his life.During two years search，Jones found more than 120 different bills.He discovered that the bills had several things in common.They showed slaves working in jobs related to farming.Many of them showed healthy and smiling slaves at work.None of the bills showed the hardships of slavery. Jones wanted to share what he had learned.“I wanted other people to see what I had seen， ” he said.He decided to make large paintings of the pictures on the money.After three years of work，Jones had painted more than 80 slavery scenes (场景 )He paired each painting with the money on which the picture appeared.“The Color of Money”an exhibit (展览) of his workhas toured the country. Jones paintings tell an important story about the South 150 years ago.He likes to repeat the saying “The story is on the money.” In this case，the saying happens to be true. 语篇解读 本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了一名美国艺术家展出 80余幅绘画作品让 人们了解美国南部奴隶的真实生活状况。 1How did Jones feel when he saw the picture on the money?

DSurprised. 解析： 推理判断题。根据第一段中的 When he was face to face with the picture，he couldnt believe his eyes和第二段中的 I had never seen that type of picture on money before可知，当 Jones看到南部联盟纸币上的图片时，觉得很不可 思议。 答案： D 2Why did Jones do research on the money? AHe had never heard of Confederate money. BHe wanted to learn about American history through it. CIt showed slaves quite different from those in his mind. DHis greatgrandmother told him some unusual stories about it. 解析： 推理判断题。根据前三段内容可知，南部联盟纸币上的图片显示奴隶快乐地 3 在田间采摘棉花，这与 Jones听到的有关奴隶的痛苦生活不相符，因此他决定要一探究竟。 答案： C 3What did Jones find? AAbout 120 different bills were issued during the Civil War. BThe difficulty of slaves was never shown on the bills. CSlaves lived a harder life than he thought. DSlaves worked long hours on farms. 解析： 细节理解题。根据第四段中的 Many of them showed healthy and smiling slaves at work.None of the bills showed the hardships of slavery可知，Jones 最 后发现南部联盟纸币上的图片都将奴隶刻画成欢快劳作的样子，而从未描述他们生活的艰 辛。 答案： B 4Whats the best title for the text? AConfederate Money BMoney Tells a Story CAfrican American Slaves DJohn Jones Changes America 解析： 标题归纳题。Jones 因发现一张纸币上的图片展示的奴隶生活和他听说的有 很大出入而开始研究，经过两年的深入调查发现这些纸币上的图片都不能反映当时奴隶的 真实状况。他花费三年的时间画出 80余幅作品，告知人们关于奴隶的真实故事。最后一段 中的 The story is on the money点出文章的主旨。故 B项作标题贴切。 答案： B B Are you at least 17 years old？Do you weigh more than 110 pounds？Do you consider yourself fairly healthy? If you answered yes to all of these questions，you should be donating (捐赠) blood every two months.In my survey of my schoolmates，I found that only 50 percent of them have ever donated blood and that only 1 out of 13 of them donate regularly.The lack (缺少) of blood donors is a serious problem that requires immediate action. According to the American Red Cross Web pages，in the United States alone someone receives a blood transfusion (输血) once every three seconds.People who benefit from donations include cancer patients as well as babies.The need for 4 blood never takes a vacation and neither should donors. Let me tell you about Brooke，a threeyearold girl with cancer.Brooke has spent about half of her life in the hospital receiving treatments.Her treatment will require about 500 units of blood in total， of which only 250 units have been replaced.She still needs the other half of the total amount to continue her treatment.If she doesnt receive this blood，she will not live to start kindergarten. Examples like Brookes are becoming all too common these days，with only 1 in 20 Americans donating blood and this number keeps dropping each year.These facts are extremely worrying considering that nearly half of us here will need blood sometime in our lives. You can now see the seriousness of the problem with the lack of blood donations.Fortunately，it is a problem that can be easily solved.Each and every one of you can be part of the solution.All you have to do is go to the nearest Red Cross and donate your blood. 语篇解读 本文是议论文。作者在文中论述了义务献血的紧迫性。 5How does the author explain the problem mentioned in Paragraph 2?

AThe suffering of patients. BThe strong need for blood. CThe efforts of the Red Cross. DThe benefits of taking vacations. 解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段中的 in the United States alone someone receives a blood transfusion once every three seconds和 The need for blood never takes a vacation不难看出市场对血液的强烈需求。 答案： B 5 7The threeyearold girl Brooke_. Adoesnt get fair treatment in the hospital Bwill need another 250 units of blood Cstays alive by receiving blood daily Dcant wait to start kindergarten 解析： 细节理解题。根据第四段中的 Her treatment will require about 500 units of blood in total， of which only 250 units have been replaced.She still needs the other half of the total amount to continue her treatment可知，Brooke 还需要 250单位的血液。 答案： B 8What is the purpose of the text?
