　　Ⅲ.閱讀理解

　　A

　　It seems that fate likes to play strange jokes on those who are famous.The manner in which fate saved Clive of India for his mission in history is a matter of record.Downhearted, ill, and depressed, Clive, then a young clerk, placed a revolver(左輪槍手) to his head and snapped the trigger time after time.It refused to fire and he realised that suicide was not to be his lot.A subordinate (下屬) took the same pistol from Clive's hand and fired it six times in succession(連續)．

　　A somewhat different but disturbing fate laid in store for Robert Todd Lincoln, the eldest son of the Civil War President.Young Lincoln had received orders to report to Washington.In White House he was told that his parents had gone to Fords Theatre and they had requested that he join them there.Robert Todd Lincoln went to the theatre and, just as he entered the building, he was stretched back by a crowd of excited people, among whom were the stretcher bearerscarrying the dying President.

　　During the administration of President Garfield, Robert Todd Lincoln became Secretary of War.He was a close personal friend of President Garfield and, when the President prepared to leave for a visit to the seashore at Elberton, New Jersey, Secretary Lincoln accepted an invitation to go along.As Secretary Lincoln reached the railway station, he encountered the stretcher bearers carrying out the fatally wounded President Garfield, victim of an assassin's(刺客) bullet.

　　Twenty years later, as Robert Todd Lincoln entered the Temple of Music in Buffalo to greet President McKinley, the President was carried past him by stretcher bearers.Garfield, Lincoln, and McKinley were the presidents to be assassinated (暗殺), and Robert Todd Lincoln was the only man who was on the scene immediately after all the shootings.

　　31．From the first paragraph, we can infer that Clive____.

　　B．remained a clerk all his life

　　C．became famous later in life

　　C．He didn't know how to use a revolver.

　　D．He was not pleased with his position.

　　33．What kind of fate was lying there for Robert Todd Lincoln?

　　A．He escaped narrow death three times.

　　B．He was lucky enough to hold important positions in the government of three presidents.

　　C．He was the only man who saw the deaths of three presidents.

　　B

　　Finally, there is the evolution of Yao's mind. He has become a wise man who has devoted time and money into life after the NBA.

　　Yao said he did not only see his investment in the current CBA system in purely financial terms, but also as a way to support the development of basketball in China and return the favour to Shanghai for looking after him in his early days.

　　A few days before our most recent interview, Yao was asked to attend an award ceremony for top athletes in China. He realised his superstar friends and fellow athletes were often forced to take low-paying jobs because they had little formal education.

　　As boss of the Shanghai Sharks, Yao has invited both teachers and mentors to help his players better manage their financial futures.

　　Another of Yao's problems has been balancing the knowledge he has gained in the NBA with the traditions of home.

　　As head of the Sharks he has to consider what's best for his team, even if it means hurting some of his closest friends. Like his first coach, Li Qiuping, who was in hospital when Yao told him he was going to have to replace him with an American coach.

　　Navigating traditional Chinese society, he said, can be tricky at times. He sometimes wistfully thinks back to his early days, when he just played basketball. Even so, he never shies away from the challenge.

　　When I think about these aspects of Yao's life, I admire him as an example of someone who is down-to-earth and has not let fame go to his head.

　　As Yao will enter a new phase in his life, his 30s, fatherhood, returning to the NBA, and the next step in his career as manager, he shows the courage to make a difference in the world.

　　Yang Lan One On One is shown on Shanghai Dragon TV, Sat.23：10 PM.

　　35．Which of the following statements is true?

　　A．Yao invests in CBA just because he wants to make money.

　　B. Yao pays his fellow athletes little money.

　　C. Yao has become a father of a boy.

　　D．Sometimes Yao has to hurt some friends for the profit of the whole team.

　　36．What is the meaning of the underlined word “tricky”？

　　A．helpfulB．difficultC．easyD. special

　　37．Yang Lan believes that Yao is a person who________.

　　A．is depressed

　　B. runs after fame

　　C. is dependable

　　D．loves the earth

　　38．This article may be extracted from________.

　　A．a TV program

　　B．a novel

　　C．a memoir

　　D．an essay

　　課時作業(五)

　　Ⅰ.1.B　考查冠詞。a great success“極大的成功”，抽象名詞前往往加上不定冠詞，表示“一次、一種、一場等”；the cinema“電影院”。

　　2．C　考查動詞習慣搭配。focus on表示“集中注意力”；其他三個選項動詞與介詞搭配錯誤。aim…at…；pay…to…；concentrate…on…是習慣用法。

　　3．A　考查dream的用法。dream of ＋doing；與there be句型結構連用為dream of there being。

　　4．D　考查used to 和be used to 的區別。句意為：他以前住在南方，因而適應這里的氣候很難。used to表示“過去經常(現在已經不了)”；get/be used to表示“習慣于……”。

　　5．A　考查動詞短語辨析。come upon＝come across 意為“偶然遇到”；come in意為“進來，參與”；come out意為“出現，出版”；come up意為“破土而出”。

　　6．A　考查動詞短語辨析。句意為：我們在街上迷路了，大雨讓我們更加無助。add to表示“增加”；lead to 表示“導致，通向”；turn out表示“結果是”；make up表示“編造，構成”。

　　7．B　考查介詞搭配。effect常與介詞on搭配使用。

　　8．C　考查非謂語動詞作定語的用法。referred to 與in屬不同的意群。referred to為過去分詞短語作定語修飾clerk，相當于who was referred to。

　　9．B　考查recommend的用法。recommend其后的名詞性從句中謂語用(should)do結構。

　　10．D　根據句意“過了一段時間我們才意識到真相”，即在此之前不了解真相，故選擇before。這實際上是句型“It was＋一段時間＋before…”，表示“過了多久才……”，其他連詞的用法不符合題意。

　　Ⅱ.11.A　后文講到作者跟別人合伙去旅行，所以說工資比較低，支付不起。

　　12．C　因此作者決定跟中國團，用so。

　　13．B　從后文Making all the reservations and connections is a nightmare for me可知既然是噩夢，那么作者就是一個容易緊張的人。

　　14．B　

　　15．C　sacrifice…for固定搭配，為了……犧牲……

　　16．D　此處語意轉折，安全的同時也要犧牲自由，要求跟著向導。

　　17．B　這里指在生活中很獨立。

　　18．A　生活獨立，但是提到旅行就不一樣了，此處表示轉折。

　　19．C

　　20．A　去他們指定的地方。

　　21．D　前文描述不成問題的地方，轉而講述出現的問題。

　　22．C　因為作者單身，所以要與別人分享房間。

　　23．D

　　24．B　搭配后文的English用speak。

　　25．A　對方不愿意與作者同住，要與朋友們一起住，故用their。

　　26．C　被拒絕后作者有點失落。

　　27．A　大家剛開始是陌生人，后來就熟悉了。

　　28．D　固定詞組be/get familiar with。

　　29．B

　　30．D

　　Ⅲ.A

　　31．C　推斷題。根據第一段前兩句可以知道，命運常常對一些著名的人開玩笑，而Clive更是其中的經典，所以由此推出C正確。

　　32．A　細節題。由第一段的A subordinate (下屬) took the same pistol from Clive's hand and fired it six times in succession(連續)．可知。

　　33．D　細節題。由最后一段的最后一句話Robert Todd Lincoln was the only man who was on the scene immediately after all the shootings.可知答案為D。

　　34．B　推斷題。結合全文可以看出Clive從槍口中獲生，且由開篇的The manner in which fate saved Clive of India for his mission in history is a matter of record.可知，命運與他開的玩笑是歷史上的經典，他也最幸運。

　　B
