1、J. K. RowlingLike that of her own character, Harry Potter, J. K. Rowling\'s life has the luster of a fairy tale. Divorced, living on public assistance in a tiny Edinburgh flat with her infant daughter, Rowling wrote Harry Potter ａｎｄ　the Sorcerer\'s Stone at a table in a cafe during her daughter\'s naps ａｎｄ　it was Harry Potter that rescued her.Rowling remembers that she always wanted to write ａｎｄ　that the first story she actually wrote down, when she was five ｏｒsix, was a story about a rabbit called Rabbit. Many of her favorite memories center around enjoying the fantastic adventure stories.On a particularly long train ride from Manchester to London in the summer of 1990, the idea came to her of a boy who is a wizard ａｎｄ　doesn\'t know it. He attends a school fｏｒwizardry -she could see him very plainly in her mind. _____ four hours later, many of the characters ａｎｄ　the early stages of the plot were fully formed in her head. The story took further shape as she continued working on it in pubs ａｎｄ　cafes over her lunch hours.Rowling was working as a French teacher when she heard that her book about the boy wizard had been accepted fｏｒpublication. Harry Potter ａｎｄ　the Philosopher\'s Stone was published in June1997 ａｎｄ　achieved almost instant success. With the publication of the American edition, retitled Harry Potter ａｎｄ　the Sorcerer\'s Stone, in 1998, Rowling\'s books continued to make publishing history. Harry Potter climbed to the top of all the bestseller lists fｏｒchildren\'s ａｎｄ　adult books. In Britain a separate edition of the first book appeared with a more "adult" dust jacket so that grown-ups reading it on trains ａｎｄ　subways would not have to hide their copy behind a newspaper.J. K. Rowling lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, with her daughter Jessica ａｎｄ　continues to work on writing the seven-book story of Harry Potter. 【单选题】

A.would not have to hide their copy behind a newspaper.

B.With the publication of the American edition,

C.By the time the train pulled into King\'s Cross Station

D.Young people prefer to read stories about cities.

E.enjoying the fantastic adventure stories.

F.during her daughter\'s naps

正确答案:C

答案解析:根据上一句，“1990年夏天在从曼彻斯特到伦敦的漫长火车旅途中，她有了一个想法，一个懂魔法的小男孩，而他本人并不知道，上了魔法学校。她的大脑中已经清晰地勾勒出了他的形象。”“……四个小时后……”，那一定是火车进站了。 因此选C。

2、Ants as a Barometer of Ecological ChangeAt picnics, ants are pests. But they have their uses. In industries such as training, farming ａｎｄ　forestry, they can help gauge the health of the environment by just crawling around ａｎｄ　being antsy.It has been recognized fｏｒdecades that ants-which are highly sensitive to ecological change can provide a near-perfect barometer of the state of an ecosystem. Only certain species, fｏｒinstance, will continue to thrive at a forest site that has been cleared of trees. Others will die out fｏｒlack of food. ａｎｄ　still others will move in ａｎｄ　take up residence.By looking at which species populate a deforested area, scientists can determine how "stressed" the lａｎｄ　is. They do this by sorting the ants, counting their numbers ａｎｄ　comparing the results with those of earlier surveys. Ants are used simply because they are so common ａｎｄ　comprise so many species.Where mine sites are being restored, fｏｒexample, some ant species will recognize the stripped lａｎｄ　more quickly than others. This allowed scientists to gauge the pace ａｎｄ　progress of the ecological recovery. Australian mining company Capricorn Coal Management has been successfully using ant surveys fｏｒyears to determine the rate of recovery of lａｎｄ　that it is replanting near its German Creek mine in Queensland.Ant surveys also have been used with mine-site recovery projects in Africa ａｎｄ　Brazil, where warm climates encourage dense ａｎｄ　diverse ant populations. "We found it worked extremely well there," says Jonathan Majer, a professｏｒof environmental biology. Yet the surveys are perfectly suited to climates throughout Asia, he says, because ants are so common throughout the region. As Majer puts it: "That\'s the great thing about ants. "Ant surveys are so highly-regarded as ecological indicators that governments worldwide accept their results when assessing the environmental impact of mining ａｎｄ　tree harvesting. ______.Why not? Because many companies can\'t afford the expense ｏｒthe laboratory time needed to sift results fｏｒa comprehensive survey. The cost stems, also, from the scarcity of ant specialists. Employing those people are expensive. 【单选题】

A.This allowed scientists to gauge the pace ａｎｄ　progress of the ecological recovery.

B.Yet in other businesses, such as farming ａｎｄ　property development, ant surveys aren\'t used widely.

C.Employing those people are expensive.

D.They do this by sorting the ants, counting their numbers ａｎｄ　comparing the results with those of earlier surveys.

E.The evolution of ant species may have a strong impact on our ecosystem.

F.Others will die out fｏｒlack of food.

正确答案:B

答案解析:选项B中的关键词other businesses、farming、property提示，选项B的句子是前面句子的后续句，因为前面句子有mining、tree harvesting，也是businesses。蚂蚁分析法已被 mining和tree harvesting等行业广泛接受，但在farming和property行业中的应用还不普遍。

3、EducationWhen a teacher finds a way to make a real difference in the students\' lives that\'s what education is all about. Let me tell you a story. Back in 1944 we had a new student named Roger, he was the first black student in our school, ａｎｄ　everyone had some pretty ignorant views on the subject of black people . The other kids weren\'t bad children; they were just copying their parents, ａｎｄ　well, I\'m afraid most of their parents ____ . But as you know, when you\'re twelve years old, you\'re just starting to have your own opinions about things, ａｎｄ　I knew this could be a very important moment in their education. I knew I could make a real difference, not only to little Roger , but to all the other kids, too, if just handled it the right way.I decided I had to try to make Roger into someone special. Not like a teacher\'s pet, I wanted the other children to start seeing him as a human being , not just a dark shape in the back of the room. So I went after him with questions in every class. He was a bright little boy, so it was easy enough fｏｒme to establish him as a smart person with real value. I was pretty pleased, because I could see Roger becoming more confident, ａｎｄ　although the other kids were still not very friendly, at least they stopped being so nasty to him.But you know what really changed everything? One day I could see Roger\'s mind was wandering: ａｎｄ　without thinking I threw an eraser in his direction. I only meant to get his attention, but the eraser hit his hａｎｄ　ａｎｄ　sent his pencil flying. The whole class roared! ａｎｄ　afterwards, of course, all the kids went up to Roger to laugh with him about it . That\'s how he became an individual, someone special, to talk to ａｎｄ　make friends with ａｎｄ　that\'s how I became "Dead - Eye Bean".【单选题】

A.was giving him a hard time

B.had some pretty ignorant views on the subject of black people

C.while they were enjoying the same class

D.not only to little Roger

E.start seeing him as a human being

F.all the kids went up to Roger to laugh with him about it

正确答案:B

答案解析:首先，and后面的分句缺少谓语动词，而B项正好符合。另外整个句子要表述的是，孩子模仿家长，而家长对黑人问题有着愚昧的看法。因此答案是B。

4、How to Interview PeopleInterviewing (采访) is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease when you try it fｏｒthe first time, ａｎｄ　probably you\'ll never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he ｏｒshe may be too shy to reveal. But at least half of the skill is mechanical. The rest is instinct, which can all be learned with experience.The basic tools fｏｒan interview are paper ａｎｄ　two ｏｒthree well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook ｏｒpaper out of sight until you need it. There\'s nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-taking pad. Both of you need time to get to know each other. Take a while just to chat, judging what sort of person you\'re dealing with, getting him ｏｒher to trust you.Never go into an interview without doing whatever homework you can. If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If it\'s an actor, know what plays he has been in. ______ Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions ａｎｄ　have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. This fear is almost 103 percent unnecessary. Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him. Most men ａｎｄ　women lead lives that are uninteresting, ａｎｄ　they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to listen.This doesn\'t necessarily mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, ａｎｄ　they will get used to the process awkwardly, perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. Come back another day; it will go better. You will both even begin to enjoy it-proof that you aren\'t forcing your victim to do something he doesn\'t really want to.【单选题】

A.Come back another day; it will go better.

B.But at least half of the skill is mechanical.

C.As one philosopher interviewed in the film notes, they lack irony.

D.You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.

E.This fear is almost 102 percent unnecessary.

F.Both of you need time to get to know each other.

正确答案:D

答案解析:空格前一直在说要提前进行准备，只有D符合上下文语境。

5、Some Unusual CelebrationsSome holidays are well - known all around the world. Among them are New Year\'s Eve Celebrations. Also days are common in honｏｒof love ａｎｄ　friendship, like Valentine\'s Day. Each country has its own special holidays too, to mark important events in its history. Schools, banks, ａｎｄ　government offices all close on days like these. Some of the days people celebrate, however, are less serious. A few of them are really very strange.Of course, they are not strange to the people who celebrate them. Perhaps that is because the celebrations have long traditions. Consider April Fool\'s Day, fｏｒexample. No one knows when ｏｒwhy it began. Today it is celebrated in many countries－France, England, ａｎｄ　Australia, etc. On this day, people play practical jokes. ____ The ones who laugh are the ones playing the jokes. The people they fool often get angry. Does celebrating this day make sense to you?Dyngus Day in Polａｎｄ　seems strange, too. On this day, it is traditional fｏｒboys to pour water over the heads of girls. Here is the strangest part: they do it to girls they like.Other unusual celebrations take place in a single city ｏｒtown. A holiday called La Tomatina is celebrated in Bunol, Spain. Every year, in late August, big trucks carry more than 200,000 pounds of tomatoes into this little town. Then begins the world\'s biggest food fight. Fｏｒtwo hours, people in the streets throw tomatoes at each other. Everyone ends up red from head to toe.August 10 marks the start of the Puck Fair, an Irish festival with a very unusual tradition. People from the town of Killorglin go up into the mountains ａｎｄ　catch a wild goat. They bring him back to town, put a crown on his head, ａｎｄ　make him king fｏｒthree days.There are also some celebrations that are really strange. In the United States, sometimes one person gets an idea fｏｒa new holiday ａｎｄ　tries to get others to accept it. Whose idea was Public Sleeping Day? That one is on February 28. It may seem strange, but it sounds like more fun than the one on February 9. That is supposed to be Toothache Day.Do you like the idea of inventing a new holiday? If you do, then you will want to mark March 26 on your calendar. That is Make Up Your Own Holiday Day.【单选题】

A.They bring him back to town, put a crown on his head, ａｎｄ　make him king fｏｒthree days.

B.Some of the days people celebrate, however, are less serious.

C.That is supposed to be Toothache Day.

D.Then begins the world\'s biggest food fight.

E.Some people have fun imagining new holidays.

F.Jokes are supposed to be funny, but these jokes do not make everyone laugh.

正确答案:F

答案解析:本题难度也不大，看完文章后，快速浏览选项。只有F项一开始就明确提到了jokes，把F代入到原文中，符合上下文逻辑，所以是答案。
