10、ser to Earth.语篇解读：作者在一次开车外出时遇到了堵车，在等待时，作者看到一位衣衫褴褛的老人正在向人求助。其他司机纷纷开过，没有人理会这位老人。但是，一位年轻的姑娘送给了老人一些食物并给了他一个拥抱，作者被这一幕感动了。1A.forcingBdrivingCcheatingDasking解析根据该空后的“.to catch an early morning flight.”可知，作者应该是“开车”送自己的女儿去赶早班飞机。答案B2A.thenBstillCthusDfirst解析根据“. before heading back home.”可知，作者和儿子们送女儿到了机场后，在回家

11、之前先去了一家快餐店。此处表示时间的先后关系，故用then。答案A3A.coffee BteaCbreakfastDlunch解析根据作者开车送女儿赶早班飞机，然后来到一家快餐店可知，他们应该是去吃“早饭”。答案C4A.living roomBparking lotCgardenDyard解析他们吃完早饭后把车从餐馆的“停车场”开了出来。答案B5A.restBturningCstopDslowing解析在山脚下有一个“停车”标志，即让车停下，再一辆辆地开到主路上。下文的stop sign是提示。答案C6A.quietBsingleClongDstrange解析根据“one at a time”

12、可知，一次只能有一辆车开上主路，所以应该是排了很长的队。答案C7A.oppositeBmain CdownwardDslim解析作者吃饭的餐馆是在山顶上。沿着山路下山，应该是到达“主路”。下文的main road是提示。答案B8A.on BwithCoverDby解析作者看到山脚下有一位衣衫褴褛的老人站在停车牌旁，故此处用by。答案D9A.looseBformalCold Dclean解析根据“_10_ Help Please！”以及该空后的shabby可知，他的衣服应该是又旧又破。old and shabby“又旧又破”。答案C10A.OfferBCallCNeedDRefuse解析根据上一

13、句“His clothes were _9_ and shabby(破旧的)”可知，老人很贫穷，在向别人寻求帮助，因此他举的牌子上写的应该是“需要帮助！”。答案C11A.hidBremindedCregrettedDimagined解析根据此空前的“My heart went out to him.”可知，看到老人的情形，作者不由自主地“想象”如果自己处在老人的境地会怎样。答案D12A.stoppingBbeggingCreachingDpraying解析车一辆辆地经过，却没有人停下来去帮助这位老人，故此处用stopping。答案A13A.cardBnumberCcashDinformatio

14、n解析根据空前的“. I reached for my wallet.”可知，作者伸手去拿自己的钱包，看看有没有“钱”可以给老人。答案C14A.thereforeBinsteadCanyway Dhowever解析当作者把钱拿出来时，作者看到一位年轻的姑娘已经上前去帮助老人了。前后是转折关系，故选择however。答案D15A.foodBmoneyChopeDpaper解析根据空后的“from the restaurant”可知，这位姑娘从餐馆带来了一些“食物”。答案A16A.rewardedBadmittedCthankedDpaid解析这位姑娘给老人带来了食物，老人应该会“感谢”这位姑娘。

15、答案C17A.softBshort CloudDgentle解析因为作者沉浸在姑娘帮助老人的这一幕里，忘记了行进，所以后面车里的人大声按喇叭，故用loud。答案C18A.jumpingBpushingCwanderingDmoving解析喇叭声使作者意识到自己忘了开车往前移动，故用moving。答案D19A.courageBtrust CkindnessDsuccess解析根据上文年轻姑娘帮助老人可知，这是个善举，所以用kindness。答案C20A.backBtopCmiddle Dbottom解析根据上文多次提到的bottom可知，此处是说当作者开车到达山脚时，老人和姑娘都已经不见了。答案

16、D.阅读理解Edmund Halley was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of comets which other scientists had made. The orbit of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical(数学上的) problem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt wi

17、th such problems.However, Halley had a friend named Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse(椭圆)Now Halley set to wo

18、rk. He figured out(解决；计算出) the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531, 1607, and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart.This seemed very strange to Hal

19、ley. The different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley thought about it, the more he thought that there had not been three different comets, as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come back again.It was an aston

20、ishing idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction(预言) of what comet would happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758.

22、ut(解决；计算出) the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists.”可知应选C。答案C2Halley made a surprising, but correct prediction in the year _.A1704B1705C1706D1707解析考查数学计算。由最后一段中的“He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halleys predictio

23、n could be tested.”可知，他预言彗星出现的时间是1758年，而这个预言还要经过53年才能验证，由此可以推断出哈雷做出这个预言的时间是1705年。答案B3This passage in general is about _.AHalley and other scientistsBthe orbit of a cometCNewton and HalleyDHalley and his discovery解析考查主旨大意。本文主要介绍了哈雷以及他的发现。答案D4Which of the following is TRUE?AEdmund Halley was an Americ

24、an scientist.BHalley made his discovery by doing experiments.CNewton was a famous mathematician.DThe orbit of a comet had the shape of a circle.解析考查细节理解。从文章首句可以看出A项错误；从第三段的分析中可知B项也错误；由第二段可知，牛顿告诉哈雷彗星的轨道是椭圆形的，可排除D项。答案C.语法填空Gift ExchangeSeth is a tenyearold boy who 1._(love) geology and biology, especi

25、ally rocks. He attends a private school and I have the pleasure of working with him after school 2._(two) a month to help him become less 3._(anxiety) focused on his illness.Last month Seth shared with me his idea of 4._(bring) “gifts from our heart” to our therapy(治疗) session.

28、t is now in my backyard, 10._ I will see it every morning when I rise. For this my heart is smiling.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文，讲述的是作者和生病的Seth交换爱心礼物的做法及其带来的惊喜。1解析考查主谓一致。who指代的是前面的boy，故用第三人称单数。答案loves2解析考查数词。twice a month“每月两次”。答案twice3解析考查副词。修饰focused要用副词。答案anxiously4解析考查非谓语动词。在介词of后面用v.ing形式。答案bringing5解析考查介词。由句意可知，今天他给我带来了他个人石头收藏中一个心形的石头。from“来自”。答案from6解析考查冠词。修饰后面的可数名词bag。答案a7解析考查语态。此处表示我受到鼓舞，是被动语态。答案was inspired8解析考查非谓语动词。require sb.to do sth.“需要某人做某事”。答案to pay9解析考查名词。在介词of后面用名词形式。be of importance相当于be important。答案importance10解析考查定语从句。先行词是backyard，关系词在从句中作地点状语，所以用where引导该定语从句。答案where
