【解析】文章介紹一位年輕的成功商業(yè)女性Maria Silvers。

考察學(xué)生的詞匯,語法運(yùn)用,以及對(duì)句子的理解能力。

1考查名詞。這里說的是Maria Silvers是一家連鎖咖啡館的創(chuàng)辦人。故用founder。

2考察連詞。句意:她來自新加坡,但是后來和她的家人搬去了英格蘭。根據(jù)前后句句意可知這里是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,故用but。

3考察定語從句的關(guān)系詞。這里構(gòu)造非限制性定語從句,用關(guān)系代詞指代,故用who。

4考查名詞。這里冠詞a后用名詞形式的belief,他的父親讓她相信努力的力量。

5考察動(dòng)名詞。句意:大學(xué)畢業(yè)之后,她成為了一名教師。這里介詞after后接動(dòng)名詞,故用leaving。

6句意:當(dāng)她回到倫敦之后,她意識(shí)到這里沒有像紐約那樣的咖啡館。根據(jù)句意可知這里考查there be結(jié)構(gòu),故用was。

7考查不定式作賓語。句意:因此她決定辭去工作。decide后接不定式做賓語,故用to give。

8考查名詞。句意:1995年,她開了第一家咖啡館,她的成功很快。這里用名詞做主語,故用success。

9考查形容詞。句意:在接下來的一年,她又開了十家咖啡館。following 可作為形容詞,意為后面的,其次的,下列的,順風(fēng)的”。這里用形容詞following修飾名詞year,故用following。

10考查介詞。句意:現(xiàn)在她對(duì)自己的成功很自豪,除了她已經(jīng)開辦的85家咖啡館,Maria打算再開80家。根據(jù)句意可知這里用besides。

【題目】_55_ One of the best things you can possibly do is to start your own club. It’s great fun especially if you are the sort of person who feels there’s never anything to do during the school holidays.

The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club. _56_ Pets, clothes, pop music or dancing groups, sports, making things? The list is endless.

Next you need some friends to be in your club with you. _57_ All you need is three or four other people who are interested in the same thing as you.

_58 You should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every name you can think up. That’ll keep you busy for ages.

At your first meeting you should make up a rule book. And the first rule should be no grown-ups or little/big brothers or sisters! The best clubs are always secret!

Now you have just about everything you need, except membership cards. These are very important and again you can speed a lot of time making them. 59 Why not leave some space for a photo of yourself? That will make the membership card really look like it.

So there you are, get clubbing! Once you get started you’ll think of loads of more interesting things to do!

AThat’s easy.

BEnjoy your own club!

CInvite a designer to join you.

DWhat are you interest in?

Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you have known them half your life. 【1】

Here are several skills that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they'll help you put people at their ease, and make friends with them quickly.

First of all, good talkers ask questions. _【2】 One wellknown businesswoman says, At business lunches, I always ask people what they did that morning. It's a common question, but it will get things going. From there you can move on to other matters sometimes to really personal questions. 【3】 Second, once good talkers have asked questions, they listen to the answers.

【題目】

Eat your vegetables. Wash your hands. Always say "please" and "thank you". We are full of advice for our children.1As a result, our children may grow up with clean hands and good manners, but without any idea how to manage their money.

Here are some basics that will help guide them their entire lives:

Show them the future. If your 13-year-old girl were to save $1,000, invest it at 8% and add $100 every month, by the time she's 65, she would have $980,983!

Be careful of credit. Credit cards can help you buy necessary things and build a credit history, but they must be used responsibly. 2 Explain to your children that when you buy something using a credit card, you can easily end up paying two or three times what you would have paid if you used cash.

3Suppose your child wants a new bicycle that costs $150. Rather than paying the cash, give him some regular pocket money and explain that by putting aside, say, $15 a week, he will be able to buy it for himself in only ten weeks.

Explain your values. 4When your child demands that you buy something, explain way you really don't went to buy it. You might say, "I'd rather save that money for your education" 5

A. Every time you spend or don't spend money, you have a chance to share your values.

B. Provide encouragement.

C. That means paying off your debt in time.

D. Teach patience.

E. Values and money interact.

F. But when it comes to money, we often have little to say.

G. Tell your children the importance of saving.

Last Sunday, I showed Tom, the friend from the USA, around the city. This was the first time that Tom visited my hometown, and he found the trip excited.

Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries.1.In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men.One reason for this is biological.

One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women.2Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力).These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and the blood flow.In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.

3They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections.This means that women generally get sick less often and less seriously than men.The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men.

4 Scientists are still not exactly sure how influence aging, but they believe that they do.Some think that a woman’s body cells have a tendency to age more slowly than a man’s.Others think that a man’s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly.5.

A.However, women, on average, live longer.

B.The biological factor plays an important part.

C.Women are also helped by their female genes.

D.The female hormones also protect the body in another way.

E.Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.

F.Therefore, women are healthier than men and can live a better life.

G.Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control various body functions.
