and robert bums have in common? they both lived and wrote in edinburgh, along with many other big names in the field of literature. this fact helped unesco (聯(lián)合國教科文組織) award the city the tide of worlds first city of liter ature on october 14. edinburgh left a lasting impression on arthur conan doyle (1859 1930). although he was bom there, he went to school in england but retumed home for medical school. after graduating, he moved to london and began writing his sherlock holmes stories. his inspiration for the character came from one of his professors at university. holmes methods were so clever that they actually furthered the advance of the study of criminology (犯罪學(xué)) ? robert bums (1759-1796) is still regarded as scotlands national poet, more than 200 years after his death. he is cele- brated all over the world through translations of his works and the annual bums night supper on his birthday. one of his songs, my love is like a red red rose ranks among the finest love songs ever written and auld lang syne (友宜地久天長) is sung all around the world.as one of the first literary societies in europe, the scottish parliament passed the worlds first compulsory (有義務(wù)) education law in 1496. by the 1790s, almost all scots could read. visitors to scotland often observed that even the lowest members of society had copies of bums poems and other books. 1. edinburgh was awarded the title of worlds first city of lit erature because_. a. the first award ceremony of literature was held there b. many literary greats like sir arthur conan doyle and robert bums were born therec. it left a deep impression on many literary greats like sir arthur conan doyle d. many literary greats like sir arthur conan doyle and robert bums often wrote about it 答案: b 指導(dǎo)：根據(jù)短文第一段所表述的：文壇巨匠亞瑟科南 道爾和羅伯特伯恩斯以及文學(xué)界的其他一些名人，他們都出生在愛丁堡，筆耕于愛丁堡。在這座城市里產(chǎn)生了許許多多的作家，正由于這濃厚的書香氛圍，聯(lián)合國教科文組織于10月14日把“世界首座文學(xué)城市”的榮譽授予愛丁堡。2. arthur corian doyle was remembered mainly for his _. a. detective stories b. love poems and songs c. contribution to the study of criminology d. clever writing skill 答案：a 指導(dǎo)：根據(jù)短文第二段中的內(nèi)容：科南道爾創(chuàng)作了福爾摩斯系列故事，其探案方法被描繪得非常奇妙，這讓犯罪學(xué)研究也獲益匪淺，并使其得到了進一步的發(fā)展。由此推斷他是以“偵探小說”而出名。3. in the last paragraph, the writer mainly discussed _. a. the impression of visitors to scotland b. how bums poems are popular in scotland c. the possible history reasons for many literary greats in scotland d. how the worlds first tcompulsouy education law was made 答案：c

1.（2011江蘇卷）dshay asked, “do you think theyll let me play?” shays father knew that most of the boys would not want someone like shay on their team, but the father also understood that if his son, mentally and physically disabled, were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence.shays father approached one of the boys on the field and asked if shay could play, not expecting much. the boy looked around and said, “were losing by six runs (分) and the game is in the eighth inning (局).i guess he can be on our team and well try to put him in to bat in the final inning.shay struggled over to the teams bench and put on a team shirt with a broad smile and his father had a small tear in his eye and warmth in heart. the boys saw the fathers joy at his son being accepted.in the bottom of the eighth inning, shays team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. in the top of the final inning, shay put on a glove and played in the field. even though no hits came his way, he was obviously joyful just to be in the game and on the field. in the bottom of the final inning, shays team scored again. now, shay was scheduled to be next at bat. would they let shay bat and give away their chance to win the game?surprisingly, shay was given the bat. everyone knew that a hit was almost impossible. the first pitch (投) came and shay missed. the pitcher again again took a few steps forward to throw the ball softly towards shay. as the pitch came in , shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.the pitcher could have easily thrown he ball to the first baseman and shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game .instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the head of the first baseman, beyond the reach of all teammates, the audience and the players from both teams started screaming,“shay, run to first! ”never in his life had shay ever run that far but made it to first base, wide-eyed and shocked.everyone should, “run to second!” catching his breath, shay awkwardly ran towards second.by the time shay rounded towards second base, the smallest guy on their team,who had a chance to be the hero for his team fir the first time,could have thrown the ball to the second baseman, but he understood the pitchers intentions and he too intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third basemans head.all were screaming，“shay，shay，shay，all the way shay.” shay reached third base when one opposing player ran to help him and shouted, “shay, run to third.” as shay rounded third, all were on their feet, crying,“shay, run home！”shay ran to home, stepped on the home base and was cheered as the hero who the who won the game for his team.that day, the boys from both teams helped bring a piece true love and humanity into this world. shay didnt make it to another summer and died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making his father so happy and coming home and seeing his mother tearfully hug her little hero of the day!66.not expecting much, shays father still asked the boy if shay could play, mainly because the father _.a. noticed some of the boys on the field were heistingb. guessed his presence would affect the boys decisionc. learned some of the boys on the field knew shay welld. understood shay did need a feeling of being accepted67. in the bottom of the final inning shay was given the bat because the boys _.a. believed they were sure to win the gameb. would like to help shay enjoy the gamec. found shay was so eager to be a winnerd. fell forced to give shay another chance68. the smallest boy threw the ball high and far over the third basemans head, probably because that boy _.a. was obviously aware of the pitchers purposeb. looked forward to winning the game for his teamc. failed to throw the ball to the second basemand. saw that shay already reached second base69. which of the following has nothing to do with shays becoming the hero for his team?a. the pitcher did not throw the ball to the first baseman.b. the audience and the players from both teams cheered for him.c. the opposing players failed to stop his running to home.d. one of the opposing players ran to help him.70. what to you think is the theme of the story?a. true human nature could be realized in the way we treat each other.b. everyone has his own strength even if mentally or physically disabled.c. everyone can develop his team spirit in sports and please his parents.d. the results of the game should not be the only concern of the players.66. d 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句可以推斷，shay的父親理解兒子的心情，雖然身患?xì)埣?，但兒子希望得到別人的認(rèn)可和接受，這種歸屬感會讓兒子感到自信和樂觀。67. b 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章的整體內(nèi)容，特別是最后一段第一句可推斷，這些打棒球的小男孩都十分善良，他們希望成全shay，讓他感受到體育運動帶來的快樂，所以在最后一局，他們把球棒傳到了shay手中。68. a 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段最后一句可知，最小的男孩理解了投手的意圖，所以故意把球扔得又高又遠(yuǎn)。69. c 推理判斷題。為了成全身患?xì)埣驳膕hay，球隊雙方進行了善意地欺騙，故意屢屢失手，共同制造了一個特殊的“英雄”，讓shay在人世間不多的日子里感到了快樂。顯然c項與文章內(nèi)容及主題不符。70. a 主旨大意題。文章講述了一個關(guān)于愛的故事，一個關(guān)于人性的話題，人性是善的，在我們對待彼此的方式方法上，我們的人性充分顯示出來。 if you are a wealthy person of india, madly in love and planning your big fat wedding-or being pressured into arranged

have a skeleton（骨骼）in the closet（衣櫥）?” jessica asked. “a skeleton in the closet?” her mother paused thoughtfully. “well, its something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. for example, if in the past, someone in dads family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be a skeleton in his familys closet. he really wouldnt want any neighbor to know about it.”“why pick on my family?” jessicas father said with anger. “your family history isnt so good, you know. wasnt your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was transported to australia for his crimes?” “yes, but people these days say that you are not a real australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.” “gosh, sorry i asked. i think i understand now,” jessica cut iin before things grew worse.after dinner, the house was very quiet. jessicas parents were still quite angry with each other. her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. when she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to jessicas closet. just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. jessicas mother sank in a faint（暈倒）, waking only when jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. she looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.“what happened? where am i?” she asked. “you just destroyed the schools skeleton, mum,” explained jessica. “i brought it home to help me with my health project. i meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as i mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and dad.” jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “theyre both crazy,” she thought.56.according to jessicas mother, “a skeleton in the close” means _.a.a family honorb.a family secretc.a family storyd.a family treasure57.what can we learn
