解析
小题1:考查形容词。从下文“要去医院”来看,应该是生理上出了问题(physical problem即生病了)。
小题2:考查形容词。因为生病了,所以要去医院做个彻底(全面)的检查。
小题3:考查名词。下文中的“face”的逻辑宾语是“the one”,“the one”指代的那个词就是本题的答案。从下文看应该是“challenge”。比起我即将面临的挑战,这(指生病)似乎算不什么挑战。
小题4:考查固定搭配。从下文“没有车,也不......”来看,应该是从一开始事情就不妙,即出了问题。Everything goes wrong.
小题5:根据下文可知,作者搭错车,迷路,说明作者并不熟悉B城市。
小题6:考查连词。
小题7:考查形容词。
小题8:考查形容词。
以上三题要连起来一并考虑。从搭错了车可以推断,公共汽车把我带向了相反的方向,故就此推断很明显就要迟到了。“就要迟到”与“给自己留了足够的时间”之间应该是让步关系。句意:尽管我给自己留了足够的时间,但眼看就要迟到了,因为我上错了车,汽车载着我向相反的方向开去。
小题9:考查动词短语。我得知坐错了车自然是要下车的。句意:我下了车,站在人行道上不知如何是好。
小题10:考查名词。我初来乍到,在陌生的城市,我放眼望去的当然是陌生人。
小题11:考查副词。由后文 instead of moving on 得知,陌生人停下来搭理我 出乎我的意料,使我感到惊讶。
小题12:考查常识。本题很容易排除BD选项,因为作者根本不会激动也谈不上有什么危险。倒是在A和C项的选择上需要斟酌。陌生人止步并主动问我,一定是因为觉得我遇到了麻烦和困难,所以得问我是否需要帮忙, Are you OK ? “你没事吧?”
小题13:考查名词。在被主动提供帮助的情况下,我自然是要告知对方我此时的处境。
小题14:考查名词。本题比较难判断。结合上文“我要去医院检查”,根据西方生活常识去医院看病是要预约的。所以这儿用“appointment”,指我预约的医院。
小题15:考查形容词。对别人的帮助当然要表示感激了。
小题16:考查副词。用“then(接着)”表示时间的先后。按照记叙文中故事的完整性可得知,陌生人在指路之后又开车回来主动帮我。
小题17:考查动词。首先排除 A 与 B,显然不会是盯着我,嘲笑我让我上车。而 C,D 选项容易误选选择 D 项“shout at ”其实表示的是带着激烈情绪的喊。因此选择 C,表示向谁招手。句意:接着附近响起了了喇叭声,我抬头一看,看到了一辆车,车内的新朋友向我招招手让我上车。
小题18:考查名词。 陌生人开车过来主动提供帮助, 让我搭车去医院。offer sb. a lift是主动让某人搭车。give sb a lift 让某人搭顺风车。
小题19:考查名词。按照记叙文先抑后扬的原则,文章最后一定会总结全文并抒发积极意义的感慨:即对于陌生人的主动提供帮助的这一善举表示赞赏。从下文的“a lovely gift ”也可以知道这儿应该用“kindness”。句意:如此未曾料到的来自过路人的好意是我收到的一件可爱的礼物。
小题20:考查名词。文章最后总结段落:除了对陌生人的善举表示赞赏之外,作 者还通过陌生人之口表达了我想抒发的感情: 任何时候都不要丧失信心, 因为一切皆有可能。 lose faith 失去信心。

举一反三
In some situations, those who are physically attractive are more likely to receive aid. , in a field study researchers placed a completed application to graduate school in a telephone box at the airport. The application was ready to be , but had apparently been "lost". The photo attached to the application was sometimes that of a very person and sometimes that of a less attractive person. The measure of helping was whether the individual who found the envelope actually mailed it or not. Results showed that people were more likely to the application if the person in the photo was physically attractive.
The degree of between the potential helper and the person in need is also important. For example, people are more likely to help a stranger who is from the same country rather than a foreigner. In one study, shoppers on a busy street in Scotland were more likely to help a person wearing a(n) T-shirt than a person wearing a T-shirt printed with offensive words.
Whether a person receives help depends in part on the "worth" of the case. For example, shoppers in a supermarket were more likely to give someone. to buy milk rather than to buy cookies, probably because milk is thought more essential for than cookies. Passengers on a New York subway were more likely to help a man who fell to the ground if he appeared to be rather than drunk.

The value-packed, all-inclusive sight-seeing package that combines the best of Sydney"s harbour, city, bay and beach highlights.
A SydneyPass gives you unlimited and flexible travel on the Explorer Buses: the "red" Sydney Explorer shows you around our exciting city sights while the "blue" Bondi Explorer visits Sydney Harbour bays and famous beaches. Take to the water on one of three magnificent daily harbour cruises(游船). You can also travel free on regular Sydney Buses, Sydney Ferries or CityRail services (limited area), so you can go to every corner of this beautiful city.
Imagine browsing at Darling Harbour, sampling the famous seafood at Watsons Bay or enjoying the city lights on an evening ferry cruise. The possibilities and plans are endless with a SydneyPass. Wherever you decide to go, remember that bookings are not required on any of our services so tickets are treated on a first in, first seated basis.
SydneyPasses are available for 3, 5 0r 7 days for use over a 7 calendar day period. With a 3 or 5 day pass you choose on which days out of the 7 you want to use it. All SydneyPasses include a free Airport Express inward trip before starting your 3, 5 or 7 days, and the return trip is valid (有效的) for 2 months from the first day your ticket was used.

As described:
This includes the history of the car as well as its specification. For example, if the dealer described the car as previously having “one careful lady owner”, it shouldn’t turn out to have had several previous “boy racer” owners.
Of satisfactory quality:
It must meet the standard that a reasonable person would regard as acceptable and be free from any quality problem. Also, bear in mind that a second-hand car will have a slightly different definition of what is considered “satisfactory, because there’s certainly an element of wear and tear.
Fit for the purpose:
It must be reasonable fit for any normal purpose and this includes any purpose that you specify to the seller.
●If any of the above is violated, then in theory, you may have the right to reject the vehicle and get your money back if you’re reasonably quick. Alternatively, the dealer might offer to replace or repair the car; reduce the price of offering a partial refund(退款). Once you’ve informed the dealer that you wish to reject the car, you must stop using the vehicle.
●If the rejection is not accepted, then it’s up to you to prove your case. You’ll need to pay for an independent assessment of the car and sue for damages. If you do choose a repair, insist the dealer provide you with a hire car or pay any reasonable traveling expenses thus produced while your new car is in the garage.
●If the car is new, it’s likely that the claim will be too high to be fought. Using the small claims procedure to you may have to pay for legal representation. All this can be pretty daunting and expensive. You need to weigh up the pros and cons before rejecting a car. Would a repair do just as well? Selecting a dealer who offers a clear exchange policy may help.
小题1:After the above writing, you will be better at .
A.choosing a car | B.dealing with car sellers |
C.making a claim | D.suing for damages |
A.Suing for damages. | B.Demanding traveling expenses. |
C.Stopping using it. | D.Proving your case. |
A.Asking the dealer to provide you with a hire car. |
B.Asking the dealer to provide you with repair tool sets. |
C.Asking the dealer to pay all of your traveling expenses. |
D.Asking the dealer to return all your money. |
A.Different. | B.Effective. | C.Discouraging. | D.Convenient. |
A.Buyers should select a dealer that offers to repair the car. |
B.Rejecting a new car is not necessarily the best choice. |
C.It’s necessary that a new car should be repaired. |
D.Buyers should never reject a new car. |
Yes, because with fewer weapons, you get fewer crimes.
Take a look at the crime rates of countries like the United Kingdom. Their crime rate is very low, compared to ours here in the United States. Just by simply putting stricter laws in place on who can own them, it will greatly reduce the crimes involving guns.

Past Practice
There was an assault weapon(攻击性武器) ban back in 1994 under Bill Clinton. Shootings and crime did not go down for the 10 years when this law was in effect. Criminals do not follow rules. The law only affects those who try to obey the law to arm them to protect themselves.

Wake up, you Americans!
It"s hardly surprising that America has one of the highest gun related murder rates of all countries! And of course guns don"t kill people, but the more people own guns, the easier it is to get access to one, the higher the chance of people using it to kill somebody is!
In Germany, we have really strict gun laws and only a few people own guns, and obviously we don"t need them. There"s no reason that a normal citizen would need a gun! Guns are made for one reason only: killing.

More gun control laws, fewer shootings
On the same day as the Sandy Hook tragedy, a man in China entered a primary school with a knife and injured 22 students on December, 14. However, nobody was killed. Compare that to the 26 students and teachers killed at Sandy Hook in Connecticut with a powerful gun. We must learn something from this tragedy.

Gun violence goes up with more gun control
Criminals will take advantage of the situation. They will do whatever they want and take whatever they want and kill whoever gets in their way. They will get guns illegally. Crime rates go up as a result of more gun control, because criminals know you don"t have one, and they will kill you as they like. There is no point in banning guns!

The next day my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged一okay, ordered一them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?
Now some people may think I"m a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.
I"ve made living looking for the best deals and exposing the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBC"s Today show for over a decade. I have written a lot of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in. I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth. I’m also tightfisted(小气的) when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn"t hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its longer, and it"s the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.
