Finally, I handed in my paper, leaving the last one____9___.
Before the quiz (随堂测验) ended, one student asked if the last question would be ___10___ in our grades. “Of course,” the teacher said, “In your life, you will meet many people. They are all ____11___. They deserve (理应得到) your attention and care, even if all you do is to____12___ and say hello.”
I’ve never___13____ that lesson. Everyone deserves my ___14_____ and I should get to know all of the people ___15____ work and live around me. That is, perhaps, the most important lesson of my life. I also later learned that the cleaning woman’s first name was Hannah.

试题分析：本文讲述了作者参加了一次测验，结果本来成绩较好的他（她）却没有回答出最后一道题目，从而引发的思考。
小题1:根据 I had nailed this test可知，本空应该是老师给我们一个测试。Match“比赛”，quiz是“测试”，contest“竞赛”，game“游戏”。Test和quiz是同义词，所以本题选A。
小题2:根据上下文可知，作者在所有科目上都很优秀，故对这次考试应该是很自信的。故用confident。所以本题选C。
小题3:根据题干，本句应该是“直到做到最后一题前，我都很顺利的完成了前面打的题目。”“直到”是until。所以本题选A。
小题4:根据文章的最后一句I also later learned that the cleaning woman’s first name was Hannah.可知，本题应该选D。
小题5:根据文意可知，作者本认为那一定是个玩笑。must have been是对过去的事实的肯定猜测。所以本题选B。
小题6:根据题干，本句的意思是“我怎么会知道她的名字呢？”“怎样”是how。所以本题选C。
小题7:根据题干，本句的意思是“我甚至从来没有考虑过和她说话。”“甚至”是even。所以本题选C。
小题8:根据上文，作者进行了反思，她因为这个问题而感到内疚。Guilty“内疚的”。所以本题选B。
小题9:根据上文作者不会做这个题目，故应该是没有回答最后一个题目，就交上了试卷。所以本题选B。
小题10:count“计算”，value“价值”，amount“总量”，regard“看做”。根据文章，本句的意思是“一个学生问最后一个题目是否会算到我们的成绩当中。”所以本题选A。
小题11:根据They deserve (理应得到) your attention and care,可知，这些人都是很重要的。所以本题选C。
小题12:根据文章，本句的意思是“即使你做的只是一个微笑或者一个问好。”故用smile。所以本题选B。
小题13:根据文章的意思可知，作者应该是很难忘记这一课的。故用forgotten。所以本题选D。
小题14:根据上文的They deserve (理应得到) your attention 可知，本句话的意思是“每个人都应引起我的注意”“注意”是attention。所以本题选A。
小题15:通过观察可知本句是定语从句，根据本空的位置可知，本空做主语；而先行词是the people，故应用who。所以本题选B。
点评：这篇短文内容比较简单，理解不难。各小题与上下文联系比较紧密，答题中一定要注意联系上下文。答完后多读几遍，看看是否符合逻辑，适当修改。个别小题可以当作单独的词义辨析题来做，先区分词义，结合语境选出最能使语句通顺的答案。 |

In America, when people say “man’s best friend”, they don’t mean 1 person. Instead they are talking about a lovely animal: a dog! These words show the friendship between people and 2 . Dogs and other pets can give 3 to people’s lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. And some even leave all their money to their 4 when they die!
Animals can help people, too. Dogs can become the “ 5 ” for a blind （瞎的）person or ears for a deaf（聋的）person. Pets can help people live 6 ! They make people 7 , too.

In April, 2013, I visited Yangzhou.
Ge Garden is very beautiful and peaceful. The ticket has a map on the back of it that I didn’t noticed until I had already left. But to be honest, I don’t think that map is very useful because it isn’t very clear an tailed. In my opinion, it’s better to improve it. Compared with He Garden, the map on the back of the ticket for He Garden is much clearer, more detailed and more useful. However, in the room that has the picture of the family members, there is only Chinese, no English, so my advice is to add English in interesting places. I got lost in the Slender West Lake. I spent about 30 minutes just trying to get out of one area. I think they need more signs posted along the trails. I like the Slender West Lake best, as she is so pretty! The ladies that were sweeping were very sweet. They always smiled at me and said hello, so it was nice.
Taking a taxi is the most efficient(有效率的) and quickest way to get around Yangzhou. I didn’t have a problem getting to the places which I’d like to go to while using a taxi. The driver was very friendly. The fare isn’t too high, either. But I didn’t enjoy taking the bus. The bus ride to the Mastixia Bay (茱萸湾公园) took long although I only had to pay one yuan. It was also hard finding where Bus 32 was. I tried asking some people in English but they couldn’t understand me, so I had to ask in simple Chinese that I only know buy that still didn’t work. I spent about one hour walking around the city to look for Bus 32. The tricycle(三轮车) was nice, but it was a little too expensive for a small distance. Maybe I was ripped off by the guy who rode for me, but it was an enjoyable ride. I felt like I was part of the garden city more.
Over all I am satisfied with Yangzhou and will recommend it to others.
小题1:How many places of interest are mentioned in the passage?小题2:The underlined phrase “ripped off” in Paragraph 3 may mean “________”.小题3:Which of the following I NOT the writher’s advice?| A．English should be added in interesting places. | | B．Everyone in Yangzhou should speak English. | | C．The Slender West Lake needs more signs along the trails. | | D．The maps on the tickets for Ge Garden need improving. |
小题4:We can infer（推断） the passage may be written by ___________.| A．a foreign visitor | B．a lady sweeping in the park | | C．a taxi driver | D．a guy riding a tricycle |

On February 9th, 2013, Sarah Darling was walking along the street when she met a homeless man named Billy Ray Harris. She reached into her change purse, emptied out all the coins she had and gave them to the homeless man. Neither of them realized that this small generous act would change their lives.
Sarah didn’t realize that she had given Billy not only all her change but also her diamond ring that she had put in her change purse earlier until the following morning. She and her husband, Bill Krejci, rushed to see if they could find Billy. The homeless man was not only in the same place, he also immediately returned the ring. The grateful couple paid him back for his honesty by emptying out their pockets of all the money they had.
Bill Krejci, a web designer, felt that he needed to do something more for this amazingly honest man. So on February 18th, he set up a special page to raise money for him. In just four days, Billy received over $85,000 and there seems to be no end yet.
That is not enough. Billy is living with a person who is generous instead of living in the streets. And that’s not all—Thanks to the news report, he got together again with his older brother, Edwin Harris who he had been unable to find for 27 years.
All the good luck is just because Billy did the right thing—returning something that did not belong to him.
小题1:When did Sarah realize that she had also given Billy her diamond ring?| A．On February 9th, 2013 | B．On February 10th, 2013 | | C．On February 18th, 2013 | D．On February 22nd 2013 |
小题2:Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?| A．Billy is living with a generous person. | | B．Billy has found his brother. | | C．Billy bought a diamond ring. | | D．Billy appeared in the news report |
小题3:The underlined word “That” in Paragraph 4 refers to(指代) “________”.| A．returning the ring | B．setting up a page | | C．living in the streets | D．receiving money |
小题4:What’s the best title of the passage ?| A．Generous Woman Changed Her Own Life | | B．Kind Man Set Up Special Page | | C．Homeless Man Returned Diamond Ring | | D．Many People Donated Much Money |

When I was young，I liked to play jokes on people I knew, especially on my parents and friends. One day my mother was cooking and I was playing with my younger brother Tony.
