9、 an All­School Reunion. Over 450 people came to the event. There were tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park. Several former teachers were on hand to tell stories about the old days. Ms. Mabel Yates, the English teacher for over fifty years, was wheeled to the Park.So

10、me eyes rolled and there were a few low groans (嘟囔声) when Ms.Yates was about to speak. Many started looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from an old woman who had few kind words for her students and made them work harder than

11、all the other teachers combined.Then Ms.Yates started to speak：“I cant tell you how pleased I am to be here. I havent seen many of you since your graduation, but I have followed your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies. I have a large collection of newspaper photo

12、graphs of my students. Although I havent appeared in person, I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the births of your children, in my imagination.”Ms.Yates paused and started crying a bit. Then she continued：“It was my belief that if I pushed you as hard as I could, some of you

13、 would succeed to please me and others would succeed to annoy me. Regardless of our motives. I can see that you have all been successful in your chosen path.”“There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work. You have all been a great source of pleas

14、ure and pride for me and I want you to know I love you all from the bottom of my heart.”There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. The clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar (呼喊). Lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing

15、their eyes or crying openly with no shame all because of the words from a long forgotten English teacher from their hometown.【语篇解读】本文为一篇记叙文，描述了在Barditch高中全校聚会时，一名教龄50多年的英语老师Ms.Mabel Yates通过自己的发言表达了自己对学生的爱，多年来她一直默默关注学生们的事业和生活，赢得了那些曾经不理解她的教学方式的学生的掌声。What activity was organized for the school reunion?A

16、Sightseeing in the park.BA picnic on the school playground.CTelling stories about past events.DGraduates reports in the old building.解析：选C。细节理解题。根据第一段可知，“校友会”活动包括对老校建筑的游览、在“Confederate Park”的野餐以及几名前任教师讲述过去的故事。所以A项错在“in the park”；B项错在“on the school playground”。D项原文中没有涉及。C项和原文表述一致。What can be inferred

17、 from Paragraph 2?ASome graduates were too busy to listen to Ms. Yates speech.BMany graduates disliked Ms.Yates ways of teaching.CSome people got tired from the reunion activities.DMost people had little interest in the reunion.解析：选B。推断暗示题。第二段主要描述了在Ms.Yates发言前很多人的表现翻着眼睛、嘟囔、看手表、找借口走开，所以A项所述“一些毕业生太忙而不

18、能听Ms.Yates的发言”；C项所述“有的人因为聚会活动而劳累”；D项所述“大部分人对聚会不太感兴趣”都与原文描述不一致。他们的种种表现体现了他们都不想听Ms.Yates的发言。原文用who引导的定语从句表明Ms.Yates对她的学生极少有友善的言辞，并比其他所有的老师更注重让同学们努力学习，所以通过第二段所述可知，很多毕业生并不喜欢Ms.Yates的教学方式。We can learn from Ms. Yates speech that she _Akept track of her students progressBgave her students advice on their c

19、areersCattended her students college graduationsDwent to her students wedding ceremonies解析：选A。推理判断题。从Ms.Yates的发言可知，自从学生毕业以后很多人她都没见过，但她一直关注着学生们的事业，为他们的成功而高兴，也为他们的悲剧事件而哭泣，所以A项“留心她学生的进步”是正确的。根据“I havent appeared in person”可知她并没有亲身去参加学生的毕业典礼、婚礼等，因此可排除C、D两项。B项错在“给她学生事业方面的建议”，原文中“followed your careers”是指“

20、关注、密切注意你们的事业”。What was Ms. Yates belief in teaching teenagers?ATeachers knowledge is the key to students achievements.BPressure on students from teachers should be reduced.CHard­pushed students are more likely to succeed.DStudents respect is the best reward for teachers.解析：选C。细节理解题。根据第六段可知Ms.Ya

21、tes所坚守的信念尽可能去督促学生(学习)，有的人会为了取悦于她而成功，有的人会为了惹恼她而成功。而不管动机是什么，他们总是很成功。所以C项“被尽力督促的学生更有可能成功”是符合Ms.Yates的想法的。A项“老师的知识是学生成就的关键”；B项“老师给学生的压力应减少”和D项“学生的尊敬是对老师最好的回报”都不是原文所提及的。Which of the following can best describe Ms.Yates?AReliable and devoted.BTough and generous.CProud but patient.DStrict but caring.解析：选D。

22、总结推断题。通过第二段中“Ms.Yates对她的学生极少有友善的言辞，比其他老师更注重让学生更为努力地学习”以及第六段中她所陈述的自己的观点“尽可能地督促学生(努力学习)”可知Ms.Yates是个很严格甚至严厉的老师，所以strict符合文意。根据第四段可知Ms.Yates也一直关注学生的事业、生活，与他们同喜、同悲，所以能看出她又是一个很有爱心的人，因此可用caring来形容Ms.Yates。A项“可靠并专一的”、B项“固执并慷慨的”、C项“骄傲但耐心的”都不能从本文所述中读出。B(2013·青岛统一质量检测)When we say older people shrink，we d

27、day you shrink a little，too? You arent as tall at the end of the day as you are at the beginning.Thats because as the day goes on，water in the disks of the spine gets compressed due to gravity，making you just a tiny bit shorter.Dont worry，though.Once you get a good nights rest，your body recovers，and

29、ing about it.BIf someone is injured，he will become shorter.CWomen have smaller and lighter bones than men.DWe arent as tall at the end of the day as we are at the beginning.解析：选D。正误判断题。根据文章第一段中的“its common for older people to become a little shorter over time”及倒数第二段的第二句内容可知，人的身高在傍晚时比在早上时要低，故D项正确。Wha

30、t should we do if we dont want to shrink faster?AWe should try to reduce gravity.BWe should be careful not to be hurt by others.CWe should sleep as long as possible.DWe should keep away from smoking and drinking alcohol.解析：选D。细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“Smoking and drinking alcohol can make this problem worse.”可知，吸烟和酗酒会使这个问题变得更为
