10、出最佳 选项。 Mark Gibson is a former gymnastics coach who once worked with many excellent athletes. He often tells a wonderful story about a 15-year-old 16 girl, Cindy, whose attitude brought out the best in everyone. Cindy wasnt a great 17 , but when she was in the gym, everyone complained less, worked

11、harder, and, not 18 , achieved more. Cindy was such a powerful motivator 19 she could see nothing. When it was her turn to do the vault（跳马）, mother would also 20 alongside her, and tell her how close she was to the vault. When her mom said, “Vault!”, Cindy would reach out and jump, 21 her mother and

12、 herself. Cindy loved the sport and kept 22 because she and her mom refused to be defeated by her 23 . Mark called her the most 24 member of the team, not because of her 25 ability, but because of her heart and because she 26 a standard of perseverance(坚持) and courage that inspired others to get mor

And we see this sort of leadership not only in 30 but also in families and in the workplace. Often the m

14、ost important members of the team are not the 31 , most skilled, or most powerful. Instead, their 32 is in their attitude and their ability to inspire and 33 others with their optimism, enthusiasm, and determination. People who know how to get the best out of themselves get the best of others. There

15、s no doubt that Cindys 34 has a great effect on her teammates. A persons personality matters most because it comes from within and does not depend on 35 alone. 16Apretty Bkind Cblind Dclever 17Ainstructor Bworker Cleader Dgymnast 18Aaccidentally Bnaturally C. gradually Dsurprisingly 19Abecause Bafte

Do you like to eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. In

19、the past, people usually went to diners (路边小餐馆 )for these reasons. In fact, many people in the State still go to diners today for the same reasons. A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. It was not really a diner. It was only a food cart. People on the street walked up to the cart t

20、o buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and all late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with

21、counters and stools and people sat down while they ate. HLLYBQ 整理 供“高中试卷网（http:/sj.fjjy.org） ” 4 Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became

22、 bigger. It included soup, favorite dish, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels. Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counter

23、s with stools, booths, and tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner. Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonalds and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a cent

24、ury ago, and it is still popular today. 36. A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. Why is diner in quotation marks(引号)? A. Because it is spelled differently from “dinner”. B. Because diner was a new word. C. Because the first diner was not a real diner. D. Because it is a special ki

25、nd of restaurant. 37. What meals did the first diners serve? A. Only breakfast. B. Only night-meals. C. Only lunch. D. All of the above. 38. According to paragraph 3, diners changed in _. A. two ways B. three ways C. four ways D. five ways 39. Which of the following is NOT true according to the pass

26、age? A. Diners existed before fast-food restaurant. B. The menu included more food than sandwiches and coffee. C. Burger King is a fast-food restaurant. D. Sandwiches became bigger. 40. The main idea of the passage is that _. A. the diner is a traditional and popular place to eat in the United State

27、s B. Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside C. American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customers D. diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many ways B There is a common belief among parents that schools are no longer i

28、nterested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever considered spelling unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, quite different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is how to en- co

29、urage a child to express himself freely in writing without holding him back with spelling. If spelling becomes the only point of his teachers interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will write only words within his spelling range. Thats why teachers often encourage the ear

30、ly use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability. I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal HLLYBQ 整理 供“高中试卷网（http:/sj.fjjy.org） ” 5 experience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling mistakes.” It may

31、have been a sharp criticism of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad thing for the teacher who had omitted (略过) to read the composition, which contained some beautiful expressions of the childs deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the mistakes, but

32、 if his priority had centered on the childs ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more hope to seek improve- ment. 41. Teachers differ in their opinions about A. the difficulties in teaching spelling B. the necessity of teaching spelling C. the i

33、mportance of the basic writing skills D. the role of spelling in general language development 42. The expression “play safe” probably means _. A. to write carefully B. to avoid using words one is not sure of C. to use dictionaries frequently D. to do as teachers say 43. Teachers encourage the use of

34、 dictionaries so that_. A. students will be able to express their ideas more freely. B. teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes. C. students will have more trust in writing. D. students will learn to spell words correctly. 44. The writer seems to think that the teachers judgment on th

35、at sensitive piece of writing is_. A. reasonable B. unfair C. foolish D. careless 45. The main idea of the passage is _. A. the importance of developing writing skills B. the importance of spelling C. the correct way of marking composition D. the relationship between spelling and the content of a co

41、ange peoples memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identityThey also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past “All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are Im not sure we want to wipe those memories out

46、begin an independent life. After children HLLYBQ 整理 供“高中试卷网（http:/sj.fjjy.org） ” 7 leave home, they often find social relationship and financial support outside the family. Parents do not arrange marriages for their children, nor do children usually ask permission of their parents to get married. Ro

47、mantic love is most often the basis for marriage in the United States; young adults meet their future spouses（配偶）through other friends, at jobs, and in organizations and religious institutions. Although children choose their own spouses, they still hope their parents will approve of their choices. In many families, parents feel that children should make major life decisions by themselves. A parent may try to influence a child to follow a particular profession but the child is free to choose another career. Sometimes children do exact
