　　I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I fumbled(摸索) in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escaped their search. I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could barely get it to my lips. But I had no matches; they had taken those. I looked through the bars at the guard. He did not make eye contact with me. I called out to him “Have you got a light？” He looked at me, shrugged and came over to light my cigarette. As he came close and lit the match, his eyes unconsciously locked with mine. At that moment, I smiled. I don't know why I did that. Perhaps it was nervousness; perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very hard not to smile. In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didn't want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and caused a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed near, looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.

　　I kept smiling at him, now thinking of him as a person and not just a guard. “Do you have kids？” he asked. “Yes, here, here.” I took out my wallet and nervously fumbled for the pictures of my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes filled with tears. I said that I feared that I'd never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. Tears came to his eyes, too. Suddenly, without another word, he unlocked my cell and silently led me out. Out of the prison, quietly and by back routes, out of the town. There, at the edge of town, he released me. And without another word, he turned back toward the town.

　　文章大意：《微笑》是法國作家安東尼·圣艾修伯里的作品，圣艾修伯里是名飛行員，二次大戰對抗納粹時被擊落身亡，之前他也曾參加西班牙內戰打擊法西斯分子。他根據這次經驗寫了一篇精彩的故事——《微笑》。該篇短文就是節選自《微笑》中的一部分。這篇故事告訴我們微笑能改變人生，善待身邊的每一個人，微笑會帶來無窮的回報。

　　1．What had happened to the man before?

　　A．He had been badly treated.

　　B．He had killed someone.

　　C．He had been searched.

　　D．He had been forbidden to get in touch with anyone.

　　答案：C　細節理解題。根據題干關鍵詞中的before找到文章對應段落是文章第一段中的第三句話I fumbled(摸索) in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escaped their search中的關鍵詞search可推斷the man剛剛被搜查過。故選C。

　　2．Why did the man want to smoke cigarettes?

　　A．Because he was sure he was to be killed.

　　B．Because he wanted to ease his nervousness.

　　C．Because he wanted to talk to the guard.

　　D．Because he was used to smoking cigarettes.

　　答案：B　推理判斷題。根據題干關鍵詞why，smoke找到文章的對應段落是第一段，其中的第二句話I became terribly nervous可推斷他想抽煙就為因為想平靜自己的緊張心情。故選B。

　　3．Which of the following is true according to the passage?

　　A．The man was a heavy smoker.

　　B．The man smiled to please the guard.

　　C．The guard set the man free with permission.

　　D．The man hadn't thought the guard would set him free.

　　答案：D　推理判斷題。A項這位男士是一名煙癮很大的人；B項這位男士微笑是為了取悅衛兵；C項衛兵在許可之下釋放了這位男士；D項這位男士沒想到衛兵會釋放了他。根據文章第一段的At that moment, I smiled. I don't know why I did that排除B；根據文章第一段的前半部分判斷這位男士不是一個煙癮很大的人，故排除A；根據文章第二段的最后四句話可排除C；通讀全文可知這位男士怎么也沒有想到是因為自己的微笑讓衛兵釋放了他。故選D。

　　4．What do you think finally saved the man's life?

　　A．The smile.B．The cigarette.

　　C．The tears. D．The wallet.

　　答案：A　推理判斷題。The smile微笑；The cigarette香煙；The tears眼淚；The wallet票夾。根據題干關鍵詞what，saved the man's life，通讀全文可知這位男士僅僅是因為對士兵的微笑而消除了對方對自己的警戒，又通過交流感情，而獲得釋放。故選A。

　　Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive (欺騙)? When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important in formation that should be included, he can give you a false picture.

　　For example, some might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery (彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for on e hundred dollars!”

　　This guy’s a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $200 worth of tickets, and only on e was a winner. He’s really a big loser!

　　He didn’t say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.

　　Some politicians often use this trick. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents(對手) says, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” that’s true. However, and honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.”

　　Advertisers(廣告商) will sometimes use half-truths. It’s against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, “Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache.” It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.

　　This kind of deception happens too of often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.

　　1. How much did the lottery winner lose?

　　A. One hundred dollars.

　　B. Two hundred dollars.

　　C. Three hundred dollars.

　　D. Four hundred dollars.

　　2. We may infer that the author believes people should _______.

　　A. buy lottery tickets

　　B. make use of half-truths

　　C. not take anything at face value

　　D. not trust the Yucky Company

　　3. What do the underline words “net gain” in Paragraph 5 mean?

　　A. final increase

　　B. big advantage

　　C. large share

　　D. total saving

　　4. What can we know from the example of the Yucky Pill advertisement?

　　False statements are easy to see through.

　　B. Half-truths are often used to mislead people.

　　Doctors like to act in advertisements.

　　D. Advertisements are based on facts.

　　閱讀理解請認真閱讀下列短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。We know the famous ones—the Thomas Edison and the Alexander Graham Bells —but what about the less famous inventors? What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)？Shouldn’t we know who they are?

　　Joan Mclean thinks so. In fact, Mclean, a professor of physics at Mountain University in Range, feels so strongly about this matter that she’s developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who” invented “what”, however, Mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the “why” and ”how” questions. According to Mclean,” When students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”

　　So, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? Well, Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City. The day was cold and stormy, but Anderson still wanted to see the sights, so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield, she found herself wondering why there couldn’t be a built-in device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham, Alabama, Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas, a lever(操作桿)on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper.

　　Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations，It’s hard to imagine driving without Garrett A Morgan’s traffic light. It’s equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J. Blodgett’s innovation that makes glass invisible, Can you picture life without clear windows and eyeglasses?

　　(

　　) 1. By mentioning “traffic light” and “windshield wiper”, the author indicates that countless inventions are

　　.

　　A. beneficial, because their inventors are famous

　　B. beneficial, though their inventors are less famous

　　C. not useful, because their inventors are less famous

　　D. not useful, though their inventors are famous

　　(

　　) 2. Professor Joan McLean’s course aims to_____.

　　A. add color and variety to students’ campus life

　　B. inform students of the windshield wiper’s invention

　　C. carry out the requirements by Mountain University

　　D. prepare students to try their own invention

　　(

　　) 3. Tommy Lee’s invention of the unbreakable umbrella was _________.

　　A. not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer

　　B. inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper

　　C. due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm

　　D. not related to Professor Joan McLean’s lectures

　　(

　　) 4. Which 0f the following can best serve as the title of this passage?

　　A

　　How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers?

　　B

　　How to Design a Built-in Device for Cleaning the Window?

　　C

　　Shouldn’t We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper?

　　D

　　Shouldn’t We Develop Invention Courses in Universities?

　　篇文章是關于生活中離不開小發明，鼓勵年輕人要善于把握發明的契機，推動社會的進步。

　　56.觀點態度題，根據第一段but 處：but what about the less famous inventers? What about….windshield wiper? 可以得出結論。這些人的發明不是很有名，確實非常有用的。答案為B。

　　57. 細節題。根據題干可以定位到原文第二段，However處正是考點出題處，引號當中的內容正是證明了Mclean的觀點：when students learn the answers to these questions,….prepared to recognize…inventing a try.由此可以看出選項D正是原文的同義替換。

　　58.細節題。根據題干中的人物Tommy lee可以定位到原文第三段，引號當中正是他的觀點：If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper’s invention…..i never would have….，可以判斷出答案B正確。

　　59.主旨題。文章一開頭就點出文章主旨：shouldn’t we know who they are?并且用了疑問句加強語氣，可見C選項正確。其他三個選項都相對片面。
