10、ce that day， Martha was left to keep her eyes open until after the lunch hour. Then Mr Max Cohen brought her a document to copy. She was so anxious she had to start afresh three times。 And when he came to fetch it， all that had been achieved were the words “Memorandum of an Agreement of Sale typed a

11、cross the top of the sheet. She shrank under his impatient assurance that it did not matter in the least， and she must take her time。 Her fingers were heavy and trembling， and her head was thick. To type two pages of his small neat writing into something clean and pleasant to look at seemed to her，

12、just then， an impossibly difficult task. He went home without coming to her desk again， and she decided she would come early next morning and do it before anyone else arrived。 Mrs Buss on her way out, asked, “Have you got any certificates？” Martha said no。 She had learned to type at home。 Mrs Buss s

13、aid nothing, but merely nodded absentmindedly， for her eyes were on the elegant Mrs Jasper Cohen. Martha could barely see where she was going as she left the office。 What she said to herself was， “I wont spend the rest of my life typing this stupid jargon”. She then went into the building of the Zam

14、besiNews。 She was going to see if Mr Spur， an old journalist whom she had known as a child， could offer her any kind of position. She was in the building about half an hour, and when she came out， her face was hot with embarrassment. It had been so painful she could not bear to remember what had hap

Mr Cohen was not easy to please.C. The task given to her was very difficult.D. She was not used to working under pressure.2. By the

B 3。 B【解析】這是一篇記敘文。文章主要記敘了Martha在辦公室一天的工作經歷。她很緊張，老是做不好事情，當天也沒能完成Max Cohen給她的工作，Buss夫人也對她提不起興趣，她感到很羞愧和痛苦?！?題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第一段中Then Mr Max Cohen brought her

18、a document to copy。 She was so anxious she had to start afresh three times。 And when he came to fetch it, all that had been achieved were the words “Memorandum of an Agreement of Sale” typed across the top of the sheet. She shrank under his impatient assurance that it did not matter in the least, an

19、d she must take her time。 Her fingers were heavy and trembling， and her head was thick. To type two pages of his small neat writing into something clean and pleasant to look at seemed to her， just then， an impossibly difficult task.可知然后Max Cohen先生給她拿了一份文件讓她復印。她非常著急，不得不重新開始了三次。而當他來取時，只見那張紙的上方打著“銷售協議備

20、忘錄”的字樣。她在他的不耐煩之下畏縮了一下，確信這根本無關緊要，她必須慢慢來.她的手指沉重而顫抖，頭也昏昏沉沉的.要把他兩頁工整的小字打成干凈悅目的東西，對她來說,就在那時，似乎是一件不可能完成的艱巨任務。由此可推知，Martha覺得她在辦公室第一天上班很困難，因為她緊張得無法思考。故選A?！?題詳解】細節(jié)理解題。根據第一段中He went home without coming to her desk again, and she decided she would come early next morning and do it before anyone else arrived?？芍?/p>

21、他回到家,沒有再到她的辦公桌前。她決定明天一大早就來，在其他人來之前，把工作做完。由此可知,在一天結束的時候，Martha還沒有完成她的打字工作。B選項正確。故選B.【3題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第二段中Mrs Buss said nothing, but merely nodded absentmindedly， for her eyes were on the elegant Mrs Jasper Cohen.可知Buss太太什么也沒說，只是心不在焉地點了點頭，因為她的目光正落在優(yōu)雅的Jasper Cohen太太身上。由此可推知，Buss夫人對Martha似乎不感興趣。故選B。BA lot

22、of us lose lifes tough situations by mounting a frontal attack when a touch of humor might well enable us to chalk up a win。 Consider the case of a young friend of mine， Sam， who hit a traffic jam on the way to work. Although there was a good reason for Sams constant latenessserious illness at home，

23、 he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldnt work any longer. His boss was probably already pacing up and down with a dismissal speech prepared. He was。 Sam entered the office at 9:35。 The place was as quiet as a locker room。 Sams boss approached him。 Suddenly， Sam reached out his hand。 “How

24、 do you do！” he said. “I m Sam Maynard。 Im applying for a job which I understand became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm？ The room exploded in laughter. The boss smiled and walked back to his office。 Sam Maynard saved his job with the only tool that could win a laugh。

25、Here is another example. An English hostess was giving a formal dinner for eight distinguished guests。 She had asked her son to serve a large roast turkey。 The boy only succeeded in dropping the bird onto the dining-room floor。 Moving only her head, the hostess smiled at her son, “No harm， Daniel,”

26、she said， “just pick it up and take it back to the kitchen, she said clearly so he would think about what she was saying and bring in the other one. Some humorous words changed the dinner from a red-faced embarrassment to a ton of fun. Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected(忽視)means of

27、handling the difficult situations in our lives。 It can be used for making up differences， saying sorry, saying no, criticizing， and getting the other person to do what you want without his losing face。 Also， many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tole

28、rance than people are in any other places。 Of course, humor is often more than a laughing matter。 In its potent guises（有效的偽裝)， it has a Trojanhorse(特洛伊木馬)nature: no one goes on guard against a laugh; we let it in because it looks like a little wooden toy。 Once inside， however， it can turn a city to

29、reform, to rebellion（反抗), to resistance.4. What can the underlined words “chalk up in Paragraph 1 be replaced by?A. pay forB. respond toC。 think of recordingD。 succeed in getting5. How does the author explain the power of humor?A. By using examples。B. By making comparisons。C. By introducing study re

30、sults.D。 By setting clown general rules。6. What does the author mean by mentioning humors Trojanhorse nature?A。 It is but a toy。B. It catches us unaware.C。 We usually resist its effect。D。 We seldom really understand it.【答案】4。 D 5。 A 6. B【解析】這是一篇夾敘夾議文。文章通過舉例子來說明幽默在生活中解決一些問題時的重要性?！?題詳解】短語猜測題。根據第二段中的“S

31、am Maynard saved his job with the only tool that could win a laugh。和第三段中的“Some humorous words changed the dinner from a redfaced embarrassment to a ton of fun?！笨芍?，幽默使湯姆保住了工作沒有被解雇，幽默使得男孩在把火雞弄到地板上之后沒有出現尷尬的局面，因此when引導的從句意為：此時幽默感的運用很可能使我們贏得勝利,這與主句的內容(在人生很多場激烈的爭斗中，我們如果與人硬碰硬正面交鋒的話，可能會敗得一塌糊涂.）形成了對比。即句子中的“c

32、halk up”應該理解為“成功獲得”。故選D?！?題詳解】推理判斷題。根據第二段中的“The boss smiled and walked back to his office。 Sam Maynard saved his job with the only tool that could win a laugh。 Sam Maynard saved his job with the only tool that could win a laugh。和第三段中的“just pick it up and take it back to the kitchen， she said clearly

33、 so he would think about what she was saying and bring in the other one。 Some humorous words changed the dinner from a redfaced embarrassment to a ton of fun.”可知，老板笑著回到了辦公室，湯姆的幽默感挽救了他，從而保住了工作;男孩把那只火雞弄到了餐廳的地板上，女主人告訴他把它帶回廚房，這樣他就可以考慮一下她在說什么并帶來另一只火雞，這樣避免了尷尬的出現?？吹贸鲇哪性诮鉀Q某些棘手的問題時是有作用的.即作者通過舉例子來解釋幽默的力量。故選A

34、。【6題詳解】推理判斷題。由最后一段中的“Of course， humor is often more than a laughing matter. In its potent guises(有效的偽裝), it has a Trojanhorse(特洛伊木馬）nature： no one goes on guard against a laugh； we let it in because it looks like a little wooden toy. Once inside, however, it can turn a city to reform, to rebellion（反

35、抗）, to resistance?！笨芍?當然，幽默通常不只是讓人笑出來。在其有效的偽裝下，它具有特洛伊木馬的效應:沒有人對于笑會時刻保持警惕。我們讓它進入城市,因為它看起來像個木制玩具而已。然而，一旦進入城市內部,它可以使城市變革，叛亂，反抗。由此可知，作者提到特洛伊木馬效應是為了說明幽默感讓人們開懷大笑從而使人們失去戒備心理,這就像特洛伊木馬一樣，人們沒有關注內在實質的東西.即它使人們失去對某些問題的關注意識。故選B。COn April 12th， two African American men walked into a Starbucks in Philadelphia， and

36、sat down to wait for their friend.Because they had not bought anything, an employee asked them to leave。When the two men refused, the employee called the police， and in minutes, they were arrested。It was not until later that day that they were let go。The video of this incident posted on Twitter went

37、 viral。People across the US were outraged。Unfortunately, these practices are not uncommon today。This incident is just one example of implicit bias（內隱偏見)， something that is a part of human nature。Most of the time, implicit bias refers to people showing negative associations towards people of a differ

38、ent race.Starting from a young age， these feelings develop unconsciously and naturally, because our brain draws associations based on our background, cultural environment and personal experiences.Implicit bias affects our everyday speech and actions and these unconscious decisions can be harmful to

39、our society.There have been many examples of blacks unfairly killed by white officers, such as in the cases of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling, which happened only two years ago.Implicit bias affects the justice system， our medical system where studies show minorities are less likely to be taken

40、 seriously， and job placements where white males are likely to be judged as more capable compared to women and other minorities.Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson and the police have publicly apologized to the two men, and Starbucks will be holding an antibias training meeting on May 29th. All Starbucks st

41、ores will be closed on that day。However， critics and experts have said that such training is done ”for show” rather than to promote change.To address this issue， many experts agree that what the world needs is a longterm program that targets the root cause。It also starts with promoting diversity in

42、children from an early age when they have friends and playmates from different races and cultures.7。 What does the underlined word outraged in Paragraph 2 probably mean？A。 Very angry.B。 Quite curious.C。 Very delighted。D。 Quite puzzled。8。 What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A. The nature of imp

43、licit bias。B. The examples of implicit bias.C. The basic concepts of implicit bias。D. The negative effects of implicit bias.9。 What might experts think of the antibias training meeting？A。 It will be a shame for StarbucksB. lt will be a meaningless practice。C. It will raise the polices reputation.D。

44、lt will raise public awareness of anti-bias.10。 What might many experts agree with?A。 Starbucks should be closed。B. Implicit bias should be ignored.C. Children should be taught to avoid implicit bias。D. Implicit bias should be dealt with by the policemen?！敬鸢浮?. A 8。 D 9。 B 10。 C【解析】本文是一篇議論文，文章講述了兩個男

45、人在星巴克里等人的時候沒有消費而被星巴克報警趕走，由此因此文章討論的話題：內隱偏見。文章對此現象做了詳細介紹并列舉了具體事例?！?題詳解】猜測詞意題。根據第五段第一句“Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson and the police have publicly apologized to the two men， and Starbucks will be holding an antibias training meeting on May 29th.可知星巴克的CEO和警察都向二人道歉，而且星巴克將開展反對歧視的培訓會議.說明他們的這種行為讓大眾很憤慨，在巨大的壓力之下

46、他們才做出了回應.該詞意為“very angry，所以選擇A項?！?題詳解】段落大意題。根據本段中前兩句“Implicit bias affects our everyday speech and actions and these unconscious decisions can be harmful to our society. There have been many examples of blacks unfairly killed by white officers”可知本段主要介紹內隱偏見對人們日常行為的影響,并舉例做了說明。所以D項正確.【9題詳解】細節(jié)理解題.根據第五段最

47、后一句“However, critics and experts have said that such training is done for show rather than to promote change”可知批評家和專家都認為星巴克的這種培訓是做秀，是一種沒有意義的做法,而不是真正的要做出改變。故B項正確?！?0題詳解】推理判斷題。根據最后一句“It also starts with promoting diversity in children from an early age when they have friends and playmates from differe

48、nt races and cultures?！笨芍獙＜艺J為要從小開始教育孩子要接受多樣化，不要有歧視和偏見。故C項正確。第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分)根據短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。My husband and I had tried for many years to have children， but it just never happened。 So we applied to be foster parents（養(yǎng)父母）。 We decided we should start with an older child fo
