recording the days event, feelings, and impressions in my little blue diary. i did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but i gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on paper. after all, isnt accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?when i was thirteen years old, i went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well-equipped with pens, a diary, and a camera. during the trip, i was busy recording every incident, name and place i came across. i felt proud to be spending my time productively, dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels. on my last night there, i wandered out of my tent, diary in hand. the sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows. i automatically took out my pen.at that point, i understood that nothing i wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds i allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley. all i remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations i had set down in my diary.now, i only write in my diary when i need to write down a special thought or feeling. i still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful. i take pictures, but not very oftenonly of objects i find really beautiful. im no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when i grow old. i realize that life will simply pass me by if i stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.i dont want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes. maybe i wont have as many exact representations of people and places; maybe ill forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me. i dont live to make memoriesi just live, and the memories form. themselves.6.beforetheageofthirteen,theauthorregardedkeepingadiaryasawayof_.a. observingherschoolroutineb. expressinghersatisfactionc. impressingherclassmatesd. preservingherhistory7.

theauthorcomestorealizethattoliveameaningfullifeis_.a. toexperienceit b. tolivethepresentinthefuturec. tomakememories d. togiveaccuraterepresentationsofit【答案】6. d 7. b 8. a【解析】这是一篇富有生活哲理的记叙文。作者小时候喜欢写日记，每天忙着把“现在”记录在本子上。但她13岁时的一次经历使她意识到，我们应该学会享受而不是记录“现在”，“活着不是为了记忆”。6. 细节理解题。由文章第一段的最后一句话“after all, isnt accumulating memories a way of preserving the past？”可知，我认为通过看过去经历的记录是保存过去的一种方式，故选d项。7. 细节理解题。由第三段的第一句话“at that point, i understood that nothing i wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds i allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley.”可知，山谷的美让我意识到没有什么能比得上让自己去体验美。故选b项。8. 细节理解题。由最后一段的最后一句“i dont live to make memories.i just live，and the memories form themselves”可知a项正确，c项不正确；由第四段最后一句“i realize that life will simply pass me by if i stay behind the camera，busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.”可知b项错误。由最后一段第二句话“maybe i wont have as many exact representations of people and places；maybe ill forget certain facts，but at least the experiences will always remain inside me.”可知d项错误。最后一段作者说，“也许我会忘了一些事实，但至少，这些经历将一直在我的脑海里”。这就是主人公对生活的感悟：把握现在，感受今天；生活，重在感受而不是为了回忆而记忆。答案为a。cwhat are american high schools like? well, im happy to tell you what i know.when i started school here, it had already been a week since the school opened. at this school, freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school. unfortunately i missed that wonderful trip, which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates. i was really sad. i wished id known about it earlier.despite the disappointment, however, i gradually adapted to my new life and school.there is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other. as we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates, the school wants us to get to know each other there. students usually come to school early, sit in that space and have fun. around the space, there are many lockers for students to leave their books in, so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhere.it really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks. we only have textbooks for world history and algebra 2 and they are big and heavy, like bricks. for other classes, we only need binders (活页夹) with paper in them. without textbooks, students learn things freely and actively. for example, my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the time. we never know what we will learn.another difference between american schools and chinese schools is that american schools care about students morality more than their academic studies. for example, if you do not finish your homework, you will just be asked to do it later, but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out.i think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well, but compared to chinese students, they can make learning a more joyful experience. i think we should take the good points from our two different kinds of education to perfect our approach to studying.9. what was the writer sad for?a. he was late for school.b. he missed the trip at the beginning of school.c. he didnt know anyone.d. american students looked down upon him.10. why do students go to the basement of the teaching building?a. to attend class. b. to share a classroom.c. to have fun. d. to meet teachers.11. how do teachers in the us teach the students?a. however they want to. b. they use bricks.c. some use textbooks; some teach freely. d. they always teach as required.12. according to the passage, in american high schools, _.a. you are likely to be kicked out if you cheatb. youll be punished if you do not finish your homeworkc. students are better at school work than chinese studentsd. students care much about the grades they get【答案】9. b 10. c 11. c 12. a【解析】试题分析：本文主要介绍美国学习教育的一些特别之处，尤其是与中国教育的差异。作者希望能够把两者的优点结合起来。9. b 细节题。根据文章第二段第三句unfortunately i missed that wonderful trip, which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates.可知作者错过了学期之前的旅行，也失去了了解同学的一场好机会。所以他才很难过。故b正确。10. c 推理题。根据文章第四段1、2句there is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other. as we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates, the school wants us to get to know each other there.可知因为学生不是在同一个教室里上课，所以学校希望学生之间能有更多的了解。就让学生在那里聊天见面，希望学生在那里玩得开心一点，能够更好的了解对方。故c正确。11. c 细节题。根据文章第五段1、2 it really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks. we only have textbooks for world history and algebra 2 and they are big and heavy, like bricks. 和第4句without textbooks, students learn things freely and actively.可知有些老师使用教材，有些老师不用教材，只是自由发挥。故c正确。12. a 细节题。根据文章第六段最后一句for example, if you do not finish your homework, you will just be asked to do it later, but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out.可知在美国的学校里更注意品德教育。如果你作弊，你可能会被开除。故a正确。考点：考查文化教育类阅读dits a popular belief that a fishs memory lasts for only seven seconds. it may seem sad to think that they dont remember what theyve eaten or where theyve been, and they dont recognize you or any of their friends-every moment in their life would be like seeing the world for the first time.but dont be so quick to feel sorry for them. a new study has found that fish have a much better memory than we used to think. in fact, certain species of fish can even remember events from aslong as 12 days ago.in the study, researchers from macewan university in canada trained a kind of fish called african cichlids to go to a certain area of their tank to get food. they then waited for 12 days before putting them back in the tank again.researchers used computer software to monitor the fishs movements. they found that after such a long break the fish still went to the same place where they first got food. this suggested that they could remember their past experiences.in fact, scientists had been thinking for a long time that african cichlids might have a good memory. an earlier study showed that they behaved aggressively in front of certain fish, perhaps because they remembered their past “fights”. but untilthe latest findings, there was no clear evidence.just as a good memory can make our lives easier, it also plays an important part when a fish is trying to survive in the wild.“if fish are able to remember that a certain area contains safe food, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives at risks,” lead researcher trevor hamilton told live science.for a long time, fish were placed far below chimpanzees, dolphins and mice on the list of smart animals. but this study has given scientists a new understanding of their intelligence.13. what is the article mainly about?a. fish having very bad memoriesb. fish being smarter than we thoughtc. how fish improve their memoryd. what we can learn from fish14. according to the article, people used to believe that _.a. fish could only remember part of their past experiencesb. fish could remember things that happened 12 days agoc. a fishs memory lasted for only seven minutesd. fish didnt recognize any of their friends15. how can fish benefit most from a good memory? they can remember_.a. where to get food and survive b. their enemies and fightc. where to escape to when in danger d. their friends and help each other【答案】13. b 14. d 15. a【解析】本文叙述以前人们都认为鱼类的记忆只能保持7秒钟，但是实验表明其实它们可以有长达12天的记忆，要比以前人们想的更聪明，13. 【小题】主旨大意题。以前人们都认为鱼类的记忆只能保持7秒钟，但是实验表明其实它们可以有长达12天的记忆，要比以前人们想的更聪明，故选b。14. 【小题】细节理解题。根据第一段中的“they dont recognize you or any of their friends”可知，以前人们认为鱼认不出它们的任何朋友，故选d。15. 【小题】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“if fish are able to remember that a certain area contains safe food, they will be able to go back to that area without putting their lives at risks”可知，如果鱼有记忆，就能够记得哪个地方有安全的食物，故选a。第二节 单词填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）16. other schools might have some what different rules _(base) on different
