However, with this success, he became arrogant(傲慢), and he spent a lot of time making fun of others. His favourite target was a little penguin(企鹅) whose walk was so slow that it often prevented him from even finishing the race.One day, the fox who organized the races, let everyone know that his favourite for the next race was the penguin. Everyone thought it was a joke, but still the bigheaded kangaroo got very angry, and he ridiculed the penguin even more than usual. The penguin did not even want to take part in the race, but it was a tradition that everyone must do so. On the day of the race, he approached the starting line in a group which was following the fox. The fox led all the animals up to the mountain, while everyone made fun of the penguin, saying that he would roll down the mountain.But when they reached the top they all shut up.The top of the mountain turned out to be a crater(火山口)that had filled with water, making it into a lake. At this point, the fox gave the starting signal，saying, “First to the other side wins.”The penguin, excited, waddled (摇摆地行走)clumsily to the waters edge. Once he was in the water, though, his speed was unbeatable, and he won the race by a long distance. Meanwhile the kangaroo hardly managed to reach the other side.And although it seemed like the penguin was waiting to make fun of the kangaroo, the penguin had learned a lot from his suffering, and instead of ridiculing the kangaroo, he offered to teach him how to swim.【语篇解读】袋鼠获得冠军之后经常嘲笑别的动物尤其是企鹅，但是在狐狸组织的另一场比赛中企鹅却获胜了。文章说明了一个道理：尺有所短，寸有所长。9Which of the following shows that the kangaroo was arrogant?AHe became an athletic champion.BHe looked down upon other animals.CHe ran much faster than the penguin.DHe stopped the penguin finishing the race.解析：细节理解题。根据第一段的第二句话“and he spent a lot of time making fun of others.”可以推知他嘲笑，也就是看不起别的动物，傲慢起来。答案：B10The underlined word “ridiculed” in Paragraph 2 probably means“_”Apaid a visit to Blooked afterCfought with Dlaughed at解析：词义猜测题。联系第一段的“His favorite target was a little penguin”可知该词意思是“嘲笑”。答案：D11The story suggests that_Anothing is impossible to a willing heartBall things are difficult before they are easyCvictory wont come to me unless I go to itDeveryone has his weaknesses and strengths解析：推理判断题。本文说明了一个道理：每一个人都有自己的优势和劣势。答案：DDThe first modern Olympic Games were held in Athens in 1896.There are nine sports：cycling，tennis，gymnastics，swimming，athletics，weightlifting，rowing，wrestling and shooting.Sailing was also to have taken place，but had to be cancelled (取消) because of bad weather at sea.In the first Olympics there were no real team sports.Then，slowly，a few team sports joined the programme.Football and hockey were the first team sports introduced into the Olympics in London in 1908.Then in 1936，at the Berlin Olympics，the Germans brought in handball and the Americans had basketball accepted as an Olympic sport.It often happens that the country that introduces a new sport into the Olympics then goes on to win the gold medals.In 1904，at the Olympics in St Louis，the Americans introduced boxing and won all seven events.Five horse riding events were introduced into the 1912 Stockholm(斯德哥尔摩) Olympics，and Swedish riders won four of them.And in 1964，at the Tokyo Olympics，two sports which are popular in Japan were introduced：judo(柔道)and volleyball.The Japanese won all three gold medals in the judo，and also won the first womens volleyball competition.Some new sports have recently been added to the Olympics.In Los Angeles，in 1984，baseball was introduced and became an Olympic sport.In Seoul(首尔)，Korea in 1988，table tennis was introduced for the first time，and tennis returned as an Olympic sport.Unlike tennis，some sports，such as golf and rugby(橄榄球)，have been tried in the Olympics but have never returned.【语篇解读】文章的主题是“现代奥运会”，并侧重讲述了部分举办国引入的一些竞技项目。12The text is mainly about _Athe ancient Olympic GamesBthe modern Olympic GamesCthe ancient and modern Olympic GamesDhow many events are in the Olympic Games解析：主旨大意题。速读全文后，由本文的第一句可知，这篇文章讲的是“现代奥运会”。答案：B13Football was first introduced into the Olympics in _A1908，London B1936，BerlinC1904，St Louis D1988，Seoul解析：细节理解题。根据第二段的第三句可直接得到答案。答案：A14Which sport is different from the other three in the group?ABasketball. BFootball.CHorse riding. DBaseball.解析：背景常识题。A、B、D三项都是集体项目，而horseriding骑马则是个人项目。答案：C15Which of the following statements in NOT true?AThe first modern Olympic Games were held in Athens.BAt the time when the first modern Olympic Games were held，there were not so many sports as there are today.CThe Olympic Games are held every four years.DThe country which introduces a new sport into the Olympics usually cannot get the gold medal for that event.解析：细节理解题。A、B、C三项在文中都提到过，D项从句意上看显然是错的。答案：D第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。You should make plans before you take a camping trip.Just follow these
