The "cello chair"

I have always loved the rich sound of the cello(大提琴). 【1】, as a young journalist in New York in the late 1970s, I never imagined that I could play one

One day, I【2】(mistake) knocked on the wrong door in an office building. An elderly man opened the door, and behind him were a dark cello and a【3】(wood) chair with the design of a lyre (里拉琴) on it.

For a moment, I forgot【4】I was looking for. I asked, "Do you play the cello?"

“Yes," he said. "Do you want to become one of my students?"

“Yes," I responded, almost 【5】thinking.

When I had my first lesson a few days later, I told the teacher, Heinrich Joachim, that I【6】(answer) yes on impulse(沖動)."I'm not sure whether I can be a musician, "I said. Mr. J assured me that with practice and 【7】 (devote) to the instrument, I could become【8】. I told him that I'd once had a beautiful voice, but finally I lost it. "The cello," Mr. J promised, "will give you back your voice." I bought a cello and began to go for weekly lessons. "Don't just listen to the sound. Feel it!" said Mr. J I made steady progress. I studied with him for seven years, until I got 【9】(marry).

Mr. J died in 2002. Soon afterwards, I received a special【10】from his son, Andrew - Mr. J's “cello chair".

【答案】

【1】However

【2】mistakenly

【3】wooden

【4】what

【5】without

【6】had answered

【7】devotion

【8】one

【9】married

【10】gift

【解析】

本文是記敘文，敘述了作者是一名紐約的年輕記者時，因為敲錯門結果結識了自己的老師Heinrich Joachim，在老師幫助下作者學習拉大提琴，后來老師去世后，把自己的“大提琴椅”作為一份禮物的送給了作者。

【1】考查副詞。句意:但是，上世紀70年代末，作為紐約的一名年輕記者，我從未想過自己能拉大提琴�？崭袂暗囊痪鋽⑹龅氖牵何乙恢焙芟矚g大提琴那渾厚的聲音。前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關系，空格后有逗號，所以用however但是。故填However。

【2】考查副詞。句意: 有一天，我在辦公樓里敲錯了門。所給的詞mistake名詞，錯誤；動詞，弄錯。這里不能用動詞，因為空格后用的是動詞形式。空格后是動詞，所以應該用副詞修飾動詞，是故填mistakenly。

【3】考查形容詞。句意: 一位老人打開門，身后是一把黑色的大提琴和一把木椅，上面有一把里拉琴的圖案�？崭窈笫敲~，這里用形容詞修飾名詞，表明是木制的椅子。故填wooden。

【4】考查賓語從句的連接詞。句意:一時，我忘了我在找什么。這里空格前后都是句子，所以空格處缺少連接詞，空格后的句子缺少動詞forget的賓語，所以應該用what作賓語。故填what。

【5】考查介詞。句意:是的，我?guī)缀醪患偎妓鞯鼗卮�。空格后是動名詞的形式，所以用介詞。根據(jù)上文For a moment, I forgot___4___I was looking for.可知，作者看到大提琴的時候，就忘了在找什么，所以當對方問，你想拉大提琴嗎？你想成為我的學生們嗎？所以作者就不假思索地回答了。without沒有。故填without。

【6】考查過去完成時。句意: 幾天后，當我上第一節(jié)課時，我告訴老師Heinrich Joachim我是一時沖動答應了。這里told發(fā)生在過去，答應老師做他的學生發(fā)生在told之前，也就是說發(fā)生在過去的過去。所以應該用過去完成時。故填had answered。

【7】考查名詞。句意: Heinrich Joachim 向我保證，通過練習和對樂器的熱愛，我可以成為一名音樂家。and連接的單詞前后是并列關系，and前是名詞，所以空格處也用名詞，devote是動詞，其名詞是devotion，故填devotion。

【8】考查代詞。句意: Heinrich Joachim 向我保證，通過練習和對樂器的熱愛，我可以成為一名音樂家。根據(jù)上文I'm not sure whether I can be a musician可知，空格處代替前文的出現(xiàn)的名詞a musician，故填one。

【9】考查固定搭配。句意: 我和他一起學習了七年，直到我結婚。短語get married結婚，強調(diào)的是動作。故填married。

【10】考查名詞。句意: Joachim先生于2002年去世。不久之后，我收到了他兒子安德魯送給我的一份特別的禮物—先生的“大提琴椅”�？涨笆枪谠~+形容詞，所以空格處必須用名詞的單數(shù)形式，根據(jù)Mr. J's “cello chair".可知，這是老師送給的禮物。故填gift。

【題目】 At 18, you say goodbye to your childhood and become an adult. You are legally allowed to do a lot of things from voting to driving a car. 【1】

On March 10, California lawmakers voted to change the legal age for buying cigarettes from 18 to 21. It meant that the US state in which the most people live was about to become the second after Hawaii to ban teenagers from smoking. 【2】 Up to now, over 100 cities in the US, including New York and San Francisco, have passed similar laws of their own.

“We can save billions of dollars in direct health care costs and, most importantly, save lives,” senator Ed Hernandez, who wrote the bill, told the Associated Press.

【3】 Last year the Institute of Medicine(IOM) in the US predicted that if the legal age were raised to 21, by the time today’s teenagers became adults, the smoking rate would be cut by 12 percent. 【4】For example, Vending machines (自動售貨機) would go away and less than 10 percent of stores would sell cigarettes illegally to teenagers.

【5】 An article in USA Today pointed out that taking in nicotine(尼古丁) during your teenage years is likely to badly affect brain function and development. Teenagers get addicted to smoking more easily than adults because the parts of the brain that control most decision making and self-control are still developing. As for the health effects, the risks of smoking-related illness rise with the number of years a person smokes.

A. There is evidence that supports Hernandez's words.

B. There are many reasons to cut youth smoking further.

C. The law will take effect 90 days after the governor signs it.

D. Meanwhile, other ways of getting cigarettes would disappear.

E. Some people argue that 18-year-olds are mostly able to make adult decisions.

F. Many countries in the world, including China, have set the legal smoking at 18.

G. But in some parts of the US, there’s still one thing an 18-year-old can’t do—smoke.

【題目】Mother’s Day is a time of memory and celebration for Mom. The earliest Mother’s Day celebrations date back to ancient Greece in honour of Rhea, the Mother of Gods. During the 1600s, England celebrated a day called “mothering Sunday”. Celebrated on the fourth Sunday of Lent(四旬齋)，“mothering Sunday” honoured the mothers England.

During the time many of the England’s poor worked as servants for the wealthy.AS most jobs were located far from their homes, the servants would live at the houses of their employers. On Mothering Sunday, the servants would have the day off and were encouraged to return home and spend the day with their mothers. A special cake, called the mothering cake, was often brought along.

As Christianity(基督教) spread throughout Europe, the celebration changed to honour the “Mother Church”---the spiritual power that gave them life and protected them from harm. Over time the church festival combined with mothering Sunday celebration. People began honouring their mothers as well as the church.

In the United States Mother’s Day was first suggested in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe as a day devoted to peace. Then in 1907 Ana Jarvis, from Philadelphia, began a campaign(運動) to establish a national Mother’s Day. Ms Jarvis persuaded her mother’s church in Grafton, Virginia to celebrate Mother’s Day on the second anniversary of her mother’s death, the 2nd day Sunday of May. By the next year Mother’s Day was also celebrated in Philadelphia.

Ms Jarvis and her supporters began to write to ministers, businessmen, and politicians demanding to establish a national Mother’s Day. It was successful as by 1911 Mother’s Day was celebrated in almost every state. President Woodrow Wilson, in 1914, made the official announcement that Mother’s Day was a national holiday and it was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.

While many countries of the world celebrate their own Mother’s Day at different times throughout the year, there are some countries such as Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium which also celebrate Mother’s Day on the 2nd Sunday of May.

【1】What is the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph?

A. To raise questions. B. To introduce the topic.

C. To interest readers. D. To solve problems.

【2】The earliest Mother’s Day was celebrated to___________.

A. mark the birth of Greece B. prepare for the autumn harvest

C. honour the Mother of Gods D. honour the mothers of England

【3】The fourth and fifth paragraphs mainly talk about___________.

A. the feast of Mother’s Day in the U.S.

B. the origin of Mother’s Day in the U.S.

C. the development of Mother’s Day in the U.S.

D. the celebration of Mother’s Day in the U.S.

【4】The passage is intended to______________.

A. give readers some information B. persuade readers

C. report a story D. amuse readers
