  Ⅱ.阅读理解

  A

  My hometown in Florida is like something out of the movies—there are smiling people and kids riding bikes everywhere.Each morning,I’d walk to high school.The walk scared me because I had to leave before the sun was up,and walk past an empty parking lot (停车场).But after a few weeks that nervous feeling went away.

  Then one day,I was walking along with my iPod on,when suddenly my headphones(耳机) were knocked off my head and a man threw his arm around my neck saying:“Just be quiet.”

  I was being attacked,and this man’s arm was gripping (紧夹) onto me!I started screaming and tried to pull him off me,but failed.He was forcing me to walk toward the back of an auto repair shop and he just kept saying:“Be quiet.”

  My mind froze with fear.Then I heard my great-grandmother’s voice in my head.She was saying:“Come on now,I know you’re stronger than that!” She was the rock in our family until she passed away four years ago.

  I have never had any self-defense (自卫) training,but I went for it—I let out a loud scream as I kicked my leg back into his shin (胫骨)!He let go of me and I ran off.When I looked back to see if he was chasing me,I saw that he was running in the opposite direction.Then I ran like crazy to a nearby drugstore.

  I asked the girl at the counter for the phone and called my mom.She picked me up five minutes later and I explained what happened through sobs.“I’m calling the police!” she exclaimed.When we got home,two officers were waiting for us and I told them what had happened.

  After my experience,I was afraid to do anything.Things slowly got better,but I still don’t like anyone getting near my neck.

  The fear isn’t totally gone after all,the guy is still out there somewhere.But I have a new appreciation for my own strength.I never expected to be able to fight off an attacker.I’m stronger than I realized.

  1.How did the author get rid of the man?

  A.Her great-grandmother came and helped.

  B.She used all her strength to pull him away.

  C.Her loud scream scared the attacker and people came to her rescue.

  D.Her great-grandmother’s words gave her the strength to defend herself.

  答案: D

  2.After the author broke away from the man,   .

  A.she called the police

  B.she called her mother

  C.she screamed to get attention

  答案: B

  3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?

  A.The attack made the author more confident to some degree.

  B.Now the author has completely recovered from the accident.

  C.The author suddenly remembered some self-defense moves.

  D.The author was so frightened that she did nothing to fight back.

  解析: 最后一段的“But I have a new appreciation for my own strength... I’m stronger than I realized”说明作者对自己有了新的认识更加自信了。作者仍然不喜欢别人太靠近她的脖子,所以B项不对。C项文中没有提到。从第三段的“I started screaming and tried to pull him off me”可知,作者有反抗措施,并不是什么事情都没有做,D项也不对。

  B

  Tasting Morocco’s flavor

  During the Christmas holidays I usually go to Scotland.My dad loves the mountains,lakes,and nature.So every year we visit the north of Scotland.However,last year we wanted some warm weather,so we went to Morocco instead.

  I must stress that traveling is not as expensive as you may think.There are many budget airlines that offer deals throughout the year,so if you book in advance going abroad is sometimes cheaper than traveling within a country.

  In the lead up to the Christmas holidays,we had typical British weather.There were weeks of grey,dull skies and not one day of sun.But on our first morning in Morocco,the deep blue sky seemed endless and the sun blazed(照耀) down with a light wind running through the air.How refreshing it was to be awake at last.

  We stayed in Marrakech,a city that excites your senses.Sights,smells,tastes and sounds filled the air.The city was alive from morning till night;there was a never-ending buzz(喧闹声) from the street vendors (小贩) and snake char-mers.The alleyways (小巷) that snaked out from the central square were like mazes made up of lanterns (灯笼) and spices (香料).The night was full of rich,fiery colors.

  We traveled to many places around the city.We went to the base of the Atlas Mountains to see the cascades (瀑布),and we went to the seaside at Essaouira.Morocco is an amazing country with so much to offer in terms of landscape (风景),culture and food.

  On the subject of food,oh it was tasty!Kebabs(烤肉串),olives,oranges,breads—there are so many things for you to choose from.Morocco is famous for its mint tea too.The tea is sweet and strong with a powerful scent (味道).We indulged (沉醉于) in such delights morning,afternoon and night.

  It was my first trip to North Africa.It is very much a region of the world that draws you in.The culture is so different to that of Europe,but there are still many similarities with Asia.Morocco is an interesting fusion (融合) of traditions and values that challenge previous perceptions(认知).

  【文篇导读】 本文是一篇记叙文,作者描述了第一次到摩洛哥旅行的所见所闻。

  5.Why did the author’s family choose to go to Morocco last year?

  A.Because her dad wanted to get close to nature.

  B.Because they were bored with going to Scotland.

  C.Because her family wanted to go to a warm place.

  D.Because they wanted to visit their relatives there.

  解析: 由第一段最后一句话“However,last year we wanted some warm weather,so we went to Morocco instead.”可知C项为正确答案。

  答案: C

  6.The underlined word “budget” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to    .

  A.cheap B.convenient

  C.suitable D.regular

  解析: 由上文“I must stress that traveling is not as expensive as you may think.”以及下文“so if you book in advance going abroad is sometimes cheaper than traveling within a country”可知这里的budget airlines指的是“廉价航空公司”,所以答案为A项。

  答案: A

  7.What is the author’s impression of Marrakech?

  A.It is too noisy and commercialized.

  B.It is a lively city with a lot to offer.

  C.It is famous for sales of lanterns and spices.

  D.The alleyways there are like mazes,clean and orderly.

  解析: 由第四段“We stayed in Marrakech,a city that excites your senses.Sights,smells,tastes and sounds filled the air.The city was alive from morning till night”可知Marrakech是一个繁华的、有生机的城市,所以B项正确。文中提到城市里的喧闹声,但是作者没有认为它过于喧闹和商业化,故A项不正确;第四段提到了“The alleyways(小巷) that snaked out from the central square were like mazes made up of lanterns(灯笼) and spices.”而C项的“sales of lanterns and spices”不对;D项的clean and orderly文中没有提及。

  答案: B

  8.What can we conclude from the story?

  A.The weather in Morocco disappointed the author.

  B.The author didn’t get used to the powerful scent of Morocco’s mint tea.

  C.Moroccan culture has much more in common with Europe than Asia.

  D.The trip enabled the author to better understand Morocco’s traditions and values.

  解析: 由第三段的“But on our first morning in Morocco,the deep blue sky seemed endless and the sun blazed(照耀) down with a light wind running through the air.How refreshing it was to be awake at last.”可知作者到了摩洛哥之后,天气开始变好,所以A项不对;由倒数第二段“The tea is sweet and strong with a powerful scent(味道).We indulged(沉醉于) in such delights morning,afternoon and night.”可知B项不对;由最后一段“The culture is so different to that of Europe,but there are still many similarities with Asia.”可知C项不对;由最后一句话“Morocco is an interesting fusion of traditions and values that challenge previous perceptions(认知).”可知D项正确。

  答案: D
