A girl complained to her father about her hard life. She didn’t know what she had to do and wanted to 36 . She felt tired for fighting and fighting. One problem had been finished but another came.
Her father,  a cook,  took her 37 the kitchen. He poured water into three pans(鍋)and boiled(煮)it. When the water was boiling,  in the first pan he put some carrots,  in the 38 he put some eggs and in the last he put some coffee. He    39      them for a few minutes without any words.
The girl closed her mouth and waited impatiently,  not knowing  40   her father was doing that. After about 20 minutes,  her father turned    41   the stove,  took out the carrots and put them in a bowl. He took out the eggs and put 42    in another bowl. After that the  43   was poured into a cup. Turning back to his daughter,  he asked,  "What do you   44   ?" "Carrots,  eggs,  and coffee, " she answered.
Her father told her to 45 her eyes and let her touch the carrots. She did and felt that the carrots were soft. After that he asked her to take the eggs and 46 them. Then,  she got the eggs,  cooked and hard. At last,  the father asked her to smell the coffee. "What’s the meaning,  Father?" He 47 that each had suffered the same unlucky experience— the boiling water,  but 48 had a different reaction(反應(yīng)). The strong and hard carrots had become soft and weak after being in the boiling water. The eggs became hard 49 being cooked. The coffee was very special and it changed the wa­ter. "Who are you?" asked her father,  "When calamity(厄運) 50 your door,  what’s your reaction? Are you carrots,  eggs,  or coffee?"

本文講述了父親在女兒生活遇到麻煩時，用開水煮胡蘿卜、雞蛋和咖啡的烹飪方法，揭示了一個重要的人生道理：我們在經(jīng)歷了困難和掙扎之后，應(yīng)該成為能夠改變自己命運的主人。
小題1: B。 既考查動詞短語含義：A長大；B放棄；C建立；D撿起；還需要把握人物思想狀況：女兒對困難不知所措，想要放棄。
小題1: A。 動詞短語搭配，take sb into 把某人帶入某地，廚師父親把女兒帶進(jìn)了廚房。
小題1: B。 考查上下文。根據(jù)上文，in the first pan, 顯然在第二口鍋里父親放進(jìn)了雞蛋。
小題1: C。 考查動詞短語：A尋找；B尋找；C等待； D要求。根據(jù)對父親在放東西之后的行為的推測，以及后面的for a few minutes可以幫助我們確定答案為持續(xù)性動詞短語“等待”。
小題1: D。 女兒不理解父親的行為，只能等待，她不知道為什么父親要煮這些東西。處理連詞時，可以使用填詞試探的方法，將連詞逐一放入文章中，考查它們的合理性。
小題1: C。 考查動詞短語。turn off關(guān)上電器、灶具等。
小題1: C。 考查上下文和人稱代詞，父親把eggs拿出鍋，把它們放到另一個碗里，所以用them指代。
小題1: C。 上文提示，最后處理的是 coffee。
小題1: D。 動詞辨析，并且下文有提示，女兒回答carrots, eggs and coffee, 可以推測到父親的問題是：你“看見”了什么？
小題1: A。 下文說父親讓女兒觸摸，可見要閉上眼睛。下文還提到She did and felt that the carrots were soft.
小題1: C。 下文提示：she got boiled and hard eggs，這一定是敲碎煮熟的雞蛋后的結(jié)果。上文就是break。
小題1: B。 從本題開始升華文章中心。父親用常識來解析生活哲理，所以選explained,解釋。
小題1: C。 上文提示：each one had had the same unlucky experience — the boiled water, 意思是：每樣物品都經(jīng)歷了相同的不幸—被煮過；但是每樣物品卻有著不同的反應(yīng)。上下文存在轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。
小題1: B。 雞蛋在煮熟之后變硬，所以選 after。
小題1: D。 考查動詞固定搭配。當(dāng)厄運“叩響”你的大門時（意思是困難來臨時），你的反應(yīng)是什么？

In 1993 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney’s cartoon(動畫片) film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash’s voice, he said”Stop! That’s our duck!”
The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat(水上住家) and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight – minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy(貪婪的), and because he lost his temper (發(fā)脾氣) very quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey’s eight nephews(侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn’t a goody-goody like Mickey.
In the 1930S, ‘ 40s and ‘ 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared – there were no more new cartoons.
Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today’s children can still see the old cartoons on television and hear that famous voice.

A new study finds that plants communicate with one another to warn of danger.
We often consider plants as the furniture of the natural world. They don’t move; they don’t make sounds, they don’t seem to act on anything. But as is often the case, plants talk to each other all the time. And the language is chemical.
Over the years, scientists have reported that different types of plants, from trees to tomatoes, give out chemicals into the air to help neighboring plants. These chemical warnings can spread information about one plant’s disease or infestation(蟲害), so other plants can protect themselves. But how plants receive and act on many of the information exactly is still mysterious.
In this week’s Science Magazine, researchers in Japan offered some explanations. They have found out one chemical message and traced it all the way from beginning to end.
The scientists looked at tomato plants infested by a common pest(害蟲). To start out, they grew plants in two separate plastic spaces connected by a tube(管子). One plant was infested and placed upwind and the other was uninfested and placed downwind. The downwind plants were later exposed(暴露) to the pest. The results showed that plants near sick neighbors before were able to protect themselves better against the pest.
They found one chemical appeared more often in the exposed plants. The chemical is called HexVic. The scientists discovered where HexVic come from, and put it over healthy plants. Those plants were then able to produce HexVic. Researchers made sure that uninfested plants could fight off bugs and diseases. How do they know when to protect themselves? They are warned first by their friendly plant neighbors.
It is not a simple story, and it may be happening in more plant species than tomatoes. It may also be happening with more chemical signals that are still unknown to us. In a word, we know that plants not only communicate, but also look out for one another.
小題1:The underlined “traced” in the fourth paragraph probably means _________ here.
A．reportedB．followed
C．doubtedD．developed
小題2:For scientists, which are the right steps to watch tomato plants infested by a pest?
①  Place the infested plant upwind.
②  Place the uninfested plant downwind.
③  Expose the downwind plants to the pest.
④  Grow plants in two separate plastic spaces connected by a tube.
A．③①②④B．①④③②
C．④①②③D．④②①③
小題3:You can put the sentence “The researches also studied leaves from exposed plants and unexposed plants.” At the beginning of
A．Paragraph 3B．Paragraph 4
C．Paragraph 5D．Paragraph 6
小題4:Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
A．Communicating Plants and Terrible Diseases
B．Talking Plants and Friendly Warnings
C．Protecting Plants and Clear Information
D．Growing Plants and Mysterious Chemicals
