(fā)，即把男友送給自己的紅玫瑰給這位丈夫(讓他送給他妻子)。18．A.sadnessB．shameC．lookD．feeling解析：選C呈現(xiàn)在臉上的應(yīng)是“表情”，故選C項。19．A.experiencedB．receivedC．gaveD．a(chǎn)ccepted解析：選A作者自己也不確定到底是誰經(jīng)歷了最大的快樂——送禮物的丈夫，接受了禮物的妻子，還是有機會來分享這個特殊時刻的自己。20．A.unforgettableB．sadC．happyD．special解析：選D這是在圣誕前夕的一次不同尋常的約會。unforgettable“難忘的”，不能夠說明此情此景；sad“傷心的”，happy“高興的”，兩個都是片面的；special“特殊的，不同尋常的”，符合語境。Ⅳ.語法填空TheInternethasbeepartofyoungpeople'slife.1.________reportshowsthat38%ofstudentsoftenusetheInternet.Mostofthemget2.________(use)informationontheInternet3.________usetheInternettohelpintheirstudies.Butmanystudentsdon'tuseit4.________agoodway.Someplaygamestoomuch;somevisitwebsitesthattheyshouldn'tlookat.Sobadthingsmayhappen5.________studentsspendtoomuchtimeontheInternet.6．________isimportantforstudentstousetheInternetproperly.Nowwehaveatextbook,7.________usesmanyexamplestoteachstudentssomegoodwaystousetheInternet.Itgivesuseful8.________(advise)．Somestudentsalsomake9.________(friend)ontheInternet.Butifyouwanttohaveafacetoface10.________(meet)withyouronlinefriends,letyourparentsknowandmeetinaproperplace.答案：1.A2.useful3.and4.in5.if6.It7.which8．a(chǎn)dvice9.friends10.meetingⅤ.短文改錯Somepeoplelearnnewskillsmorequicklythanothers,soyouneedn'tfeeldiscouragingifsomeofyourclassmateseemtobelearningEnglishmorequicklythanyou.Ifyoukeeponpracticing,youwillbemasterEnglishintheend.Inthemeantime,trytomakeEnglishlearningasfunaspossibly.IsuggestthatyouwatchedEnglishlanguagemoviesonyourfreetime.IalsosuggestreadingsomeEnglishlanguagemagazinesontopicsthatinterestedyouandjoininggamesatyourschool'sEnglishCorner.Ifyourschooldoesn'talreadyhaveaEnglishCorner,youmightwantthinkaboutstartingone.答案：第一句：discouraging→discouraged；classmate→classmates第二句：be去掉第三句：possibly→possible第四句：watched→watch;on→in第五句：interested→interest;joining后加in第六句：a→an;want后加to單元質(zhì)量檢測(四)(時間：100分鐘滿分：120分)Ⅰ.閱讀理解(共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分)閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。AJustanhourfromAtlanta,CounterPointisheldatbeautifulKingstonDowns.Thegroundsinclude5，000acresofrollingNorthGeorgiaHills.Theyaresurroundedbyariveron3sideswithbeautifulviewsoftheAppalachianMountainsinthedistance.Thevenuehostsplentyofstages,artfestivals,campingandmanyotheractivities.ThesiteiseasilytoreachfrommostofthebiggestcitiesintheSoutheast.Forquestionsaboutthefestivalgrounds,emailusatinfo@counterpointfestival.CampingCounterPointisa“CampingOptional”Festival.Youcantakeatent,bringanRV,orstayatahotel.Thecampgroundshavefeaturedfortsandamenities(便利設(shè)施)thatwillmakeyoufellrightathome.Ifyoudon'twanttocamp,therearebusesandtravelpackageoptionsthatofferaquickridebacktoyourhotel.Forquestionsaboutcamping,emailusatinfo@counterpointfestivalArtThevisualexperienceatCounterPointisoneofakind.TakeawalkthroughtheArtVillagetocheckoutrareartsandvariouscrafts.Moredetailsontheart,artists,andthe2015ArtVillagewillbeshownsoon.Theapplicationtobeanartexhibitoratthe2015CounterPointMusicandArtsFestivalisnowclosed.CheckbacknextJanuaryforthe2016application.Contactvendors@counterpointfestivalwithquestions.Food&DrinkWe'vegoteverythingyouneedtofuelupyourfestivalexperience.Packanappetite—CounterPointwillhaveplentyoffoodandbeverageoptionsforyou.Theapplicationtobeafoodcourtexhibitoratthe2015CounterPointMusicandArtsFestivalisnowclosed.CheckbacknextJanuaryforthe2016application.Contactvendors@counterpointfestivalwithquestions.CounterPointCaresCounterPointwantstokeepKingstonDownslookingbeautiful.Withyoursupport,wecanleavealastingpositiveinfluencethroughrecyclingandwastereductionprograms.IfyourepresentanonprofitorganizationinterestedinbeingfeaturedatCounterPoint,contactvendors@counterpointfestivaltotellusmoreaboutit.語篇解讀：本文向我們介紹了有關(guān)CounterPoint音樂和藝術(shù)節(jié)的一些信息。1．ThesitewhereCounterPointisheldis________．A．fullofnaturalsceneryB．farfromNorthGeorgiaHillsC．a(chǎn)nhourfromKingstonDownsD．a(chǎn)tthefootoftheAppalachianMountains解析：選A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第三句“Theyaresurroundedby...inthedistance.”可知，這里風(fēng)景秀麗。2．IfyougotoCounterPoint,you________．A．muststayatahotelB．cantakeabusforfreeC．canstayoutdoorsatnightD．canrentatentfromahotel解析：選C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的“CounterPointisa‘CampingOptional’Festival.Youcantakeatent,bringanRV”可知，在那里晚上可以在外面過夜。3．Whatcanyoudobycontactingvendors@counterpointfestival?A．Askaboutthefestivalgrounds.B．Askaboutamenitiesatthesite.C．Bookahotelroomnearthesite.D．Asktobeafoodcourtexhibitor.解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段的“Theapplicationtobeafoodcourtexhibitoratthe2015CounterPointMusicandArtsFestival...withquestions.”可知應(yīng)選D項。BWhenIfirstvisitedViareggioyearsago,Iwasabitconfusedtoseeahugeclownstatue.ItwasexplainedtomethattheclownisBurlamacco,themascot(吉祥物)oftheCarnivalcelebrationsheldinViareggioeveryyear.DuringthevisittotheCarnivalofViareggioFoundationthatyear,Imetthepeoplebehindtheorganizationoftheevent,andtalkedwiththemaboutthehistoryofViareggio'sCarnivalandwhatitmeanstothepeopleofViareggio.TheCarnivalofViareggioisoneofthemostimportantfestivalsinItalyandinEurope.Itdatesbackto1873whenagroupofcitizensdecidedtohaveamaskedparadeonFatTuesdaytoprotestagainsttoomanytaxes.Yearafter
