解析

试题分析:本文叙述了作者在认为自己不可能的当一名足球运动员的情况下,而被教练Mr. Ledy选为队员,作者所在的足球队与别的队在一次比赛中惨败,后来的一次比赛中他们的队扳回了一点比分,经过他们的团队的不断努力,最后在毕业前他们打赢了比赛。
小题1:考查动名词及上下文的呼应。shouting大叫; screaming尖叫; laughing笑;applauding喝彩。根据后文的描述可知,作者认为自己不是踢足球的料,所以当足球教练 Mr.Ledy劝他踢足球时他禁不住“笑”起来。故选C。
小题2:考查副词及上下文的呼应。up向上; over超过; more更多的; out离去。我身高6英尺高,体重不超过100英镑,故选B。
小题3:考查代词及上下文的呼应。another又一个,另一个; other其他的; some一些;any一些。我认为他可能需要一个蠢材来增加他的足球队员吧,故选A。  
小题4:考查副词及上下文的呼应。 immediately立刻; secretly秘密地; personally亲自地; finally最后,终于。Mr.Ledy一直坚持要作者踢足球,结果作者“最终”加入了足球队。故选D。
小题5:考查动词短语及上下文的呼应。 take out取出; turn out结果是,证明是; give off发出; give out分发。作为一个孩子证明了那是我的一个最好的决定,故选B。
小题6:考查副词及上下文的呼应。 never 从不; once从前; ever曾经; again又。我们曾经最糟糕的一次比赛是与Crystal Falls的决战,故选C。
小题7:考查名词及上下文的呼应。game比赛; team队; story故事; score得分。那是足球而不是篮球的得分,That代指前面的比分56 to 6,故应选score。即选D。
小题8:考查动词及上下文的呼应。win赢,后不能接人; meet遇见; beat打败;    fight战斗。根据后面的again可知,Crystal Falls球队再次打败了作者的球队,故用beat。win后面通常不跟人作宾语,故排除。故选C。
小题9:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。accessible易易接近的; comfortable舒适的; sensitive敏感的; acceptable可接受的。但是这次的比分是30:20,这次的比分和上一次比起来是“可以接受的”。故选D。
小题10:考查动词及上下文的呼应。 happen发生; succeed成功; spread传播;  develop发展。Ledy教练不会让那种惨败再次“发生”。故选A。
小题11:考查名词及上下文的呼应。liberation解放; closing结尾; graduation毕业; school学校。根据前面的seniors以及the last game可知,作者的球队在“毕业”前的最后一场比赛中打败了Crystal Falls球队。故选C。
小题12:考查名词及上下文的呼应。 honor荣誉; hope希望; success成功; surprise惊奇。根据语境可知,教练的表扬对于作者来说,是一件巨大的“光荣的事情”。故选A。
小题13:考查动词及上下文的呼应。 take拿走; manage管理,对付; solve 解决; explain解释。manage it是固定搭配,意为“做得到,成功”,符合语境。没有我们的球队,我不能做得到,故选B。
小题14:考查名词及上下文的呼应。courage勇气; devotion献身; teamwork团队合作,协力; contribution贡献。本段论述了团队的重要性,因此此处表示作者通过足球学会了“团队合作”。“我”从足球这里学到了团队合作的重要性,故选C。
小题15:考查动词及上下文的呼应。 unite团结; appeare出现; prepare准备; lose失去。我们作为一个团队而赢了比赛,必将作为一个团队而联合起来,故选D。
小题16:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。proud自豪的; fond喜欢; full慢地; kind友好的。如果Ledy早知道是“我”破了纪录的话,我认为他会以“我”而自豪的,故选A。
小题17:考查名词及上下文的呼应。time时间; record纪录; date日期; ability能力。如果Ledy早知道是“我”破了纪录的话,我认为他会以“我”而自豪的,故选B。
小题18:考查形容词及上下文的呼应。 pleased高兴的; grateful感谢的; hopeful有希望的; loyal忠诚的。没有这个教练将没有“我”的一切,“我”很感谢他,故选B。
小题19:考查动词及上下文的呼应。 fight斗争; join加入; desire要求;enjoy喜欢。为了胜利作者要不辞劳苦地“打”好人生的决战。故选A。
小题20:考查动词短语及上下文的呼应。 take on呈现; put on穿上; rely on依靠; keep on继续。为了不让教练失望,作者决心要“继续”努力奋斗。故选D。

“Scotty!” Mr. Brown, my Year 11 English teacher, called me by my nickname (绰号) across the classroom. His eyes were bright and a secret   36  was half hidden behind the beard.
Once he finished joking over my unbearable   37 , I realized he was going to read my story aloud to the class. I turned red, feeling at once both embarrassed and   38 . I had my very   39  reading audience! Though my classmates were a ‘passive audience’, it didn’t weaken my feeling of being   40 .
After that, I came to   41  those Year 11 English classes. Throughout school I had always studied hard and achieved well in my school subjects. But creative   42  was a passion, and it was not an assignment, but a way of understanding the world and of   43  my thoughts and feelings about events and attitudes.
Mr. Brown was the first to   44  me for my writing so openly. My scores were always 19/20 or 20/20. My stories were often read out to the class. He even   45  one with the respected Head of English teachers, which was the most   46  part that is impressed on my memory. But   47  that, he offered a belief in me that no other teacher had.
My school   48  often stated, ‘Candice is a quiet achiever.’ I thought it was meant as a(n)   49  for being hard-working. I was someone that no one really   50  before, but Mr. Brown managed to   51  all that by bringing me to the attention of the world. Though it was the relatively   52  world of school, it put the seed of belief in myself that some day I could be an   53  person rather than the person who faded into the background.
I   54  touch with my teacher long ago, as we do when we move away from the school system and enter life. I wish I could tell him now how much he   55  me.

Now came great news! It came from a neighboring state, where the family’s only surviving relative lived. It was Sally’s relative—a distant relative by the name of Tilbury Foster, seventy and single. Tilbury now wrote to Sally, saying he should shortly die, and should leave him thirty thousand dollars, cash; not for love, but because money had given him most of his troubles, and he wished to place it where there was good hope that it would continue its evil work. The bequest would be found in his will, and would be officially handed over provided that Sally should be able to prove to the executors (遗嘱执行人).
As soon as Aleck had partially recovered from the strong emotions created by the letter, she sent someone to the relative’s home and subscribed for the local paper.
For the rest of the day Sally made confusion with his books, and Aleck could not keep her mind on her affairs, not even take up a flower-pot or book or a stick of wood without forgetting what she had intended to do with it. For both were dreaming.
“Thirty thousand dollars!”
All day long Aleck was absorbed in planning how to invest it, Sally in planning how to spend it.
There was no romance-reading that night. The children took themselves away early, for their parents were silent, disturbed, and strangely unentertaining. Two pencils had been busy during that hour —note-making; in the way of plans. It was Sally who broke the stillness at last. He said, with excitement, “Ah, it’ll be grand, Aleck! Out of the first thousand we’ll have a horse and a buggy for summer, and a cutter and a skin lap-robe for winter.”
Aleck responded with decision and calmness.
“You can spend a part of it. But the whole of the capital must be put right to work.
“Why, yes. Yes, of course. Have you got it invested yet?”
“No, there’s no hurry about that; I must look around first, and think, er…, I’ve turned it over twice; once in oil and once in wheat.”
“Why, Aleck, it’s splendid! What does it amount to?”
“I think — well, to be on the safe side, about a hundred and eighty thousand clear, though it will probably be more.”
“My! Isn’t it wonderful? Good heaven! Luck has come our way at last, Aleck!”
Then they went up to bed, but they left the candle burning in the sitting room. They did not remember until they were undressed; then Sally was for letting it burn; he said they could afford it, if it was a thousand. But Aleck went down and put it out.
A good job, too; for on her way back she hit on a scheme that would turn the hundred and eighty thousand into half a million before it had had time to get cold. 
小题1: Why would Tilbury like to give all his money to Sally?
A.Because Sally was Tilbury’s only relative alive.
B.Because Tilbury loved Sally and his family deeply.
C.Because Tilbury wanted his money to continue its function.
D.Because Sally and his wife are good at investing.
小题2:The underlined word “bequest” in Paragraph1 probably means _________.
A.a gift of personal property B.a proof of a person’s identity
C.a method of getting money D.a reason for giving money
小题3:What do we know about Sally and his wife after receiving the letter?
A.They were in deep sorrow and stayed up all night.
B.They cared little about the bequest and lived their life as usual.
C.They paid a visit to Tilbury to confirm the truth of the letter.
D.They had a big ambition to invest the money and make huge profits.
小题4:Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.Thrilling News B.Sally’s Distant Relative
C.The $30,000 Bequest D.A Smart Investment

To win an Oscar is an achievement at any age. To do so at 22, as Jennifer Lawrence has, is just amazing. Recently, the American star won Best Actress at this year"s Academy Awards for her role in the film The Silver Linings Playbook. According to Time magazine"s Richard Corliss, Lawrence is that rare young actress who "lends a mature intelligence to any role".
Though Lawrence has found great success through her big screen work, Lawrence wasn"t sure what she really liked doing before the age of 14. She thought she"d go to college and maybe find a career as a doctor or a travel agent.     
Lawrence"s two brothers were star athletes and one of them was a straight-A student. Unlike them, she suffered through school, never quite finding where she belonged. However, during a trip to New York, Lawrence suddenly realized that she wanted to be an actress. When she was enjoying the beautiful city, a model seeker asked if he could take her picture, and the next day he called her in for an audition (试镜).      
"I read the script and it was the first time I had that feeling like I understand this," Lawrence said. "Within 20 minutes, in the cab ride from the hotel room, I decided I didn"t want to be a model. In fact, I wanted to be an actress." Having appreciated this young lady"s performance, the agency was so impressed with her reading that they signed her on the spot. But she insisted on finishing high school so she could give her full attention to her acting career.        
Lawrence burst onto the Hollywood scene last year with The Hunger Games, which established her as the highest-grossing (票房最高的) female action hero of all time. Rolling Stone called her “the most talented young actress in America".
小题1:What can we know about Jennifer Lawrence from Paragraph 3?
A.Her parents were really strict with her.
B.She seemed not to fit in with her school days well.
C.Her school performance made her today"s fame.
D.Her two brothers were doing well in all school subjects.
小题2: Lawrence made up her mind to be an actress because of ______.

I was once that little moth. My cocoon was my mother’s   51 , in which I was comfortable, and hated to fly too far away from it. I was   52  when my first job required me to move to a new city.
