1．a passion for art collecting”，“they traveled around the world”可以推测出，他们周游世界是在搜集世界上最好的艺术珍品。14 空有fine的原词复现。
2. D 考查语境化选词。由该段最后一句话“The young man had died while rushing a fellow soldier to a doctor.”可以看出，这里表达的意思是：有一年，随着冬天的来临，战争吞没了整个国家，小伙子离开家乡到前线报效国家serve。Serve the country意为：报效祖国。save
挽救；help帮住；build建设。
4. A 考查形容词辨析。下一句告诉我们，这位父亲在等待更多的关于儿子的消息，担心再也见不到自己的儿子，由此可以看出，电报上只是说儿子失踪了，所以选missing，意为：失踪的。
5. B 考查副词辨析。收到了儿子在战场上市总的电报，害怕再也见不到儿子，在等待更多消息的心情应该是不安的，所以选B。calmly
冷静地；quietly 安静的； secretly秘密地。
6. A 考查动词辨析。7 空前有该词的名词形式复现。句意见4题。
7. D 考查动词辨析。 由下一句可以看出，他所担心的事情真的发生了，也就是说他的儿子真的牺牲了。所以选D，意为：(得到)证实。complete 完成； double 加倍； remove移动开除。
8. C 考查形容词辨析。儿子去世了，父亲感到很孤独，所以选lonely，意为：孤独的。A项的干扰性很大，但是该词意为：不安的，和and前的upset意思是上重复。

15. A 考查名词。好的艺术作品都是艺术家创作的，而战士带来的礼物是战士自己画的，所以他要表达的意思是：我知道你很喜欢艺术珍品，我肃然不是艺术家，但是我画了一副您儿子的肖像，送给您。所以选artist。
16. B 考查副词。尽管这幅画画的不是多么好(也就是文章所表达的：世界上绝对不会有人认为这是一位天才画家的作品)，但是却细致的勾画出了小伙子的面部特征。所以选never。

阅读理解was unemployed, had never been married and “never been kissed, actually”， few in the audience would have wondered why. This Ms Boyle, looking unfashionable, from a village in Scotland, shocked the three judges and the audience with the song eam from the musical Les Miserables on a show of Britain's Got Talent, one of the hottest reality shows in Britain.
She couldn't hide the awkwardness when walking to the center of the stage in a housedress, and everyone—including the judges—seemed laughing at her when she said she wanted to be as successful as Elaine Paige. As soon as she began singing, however, everyone in the auditorium fell silent, then rose within seconds to applaud her incredible voice as the celebrity judges sat openmouthed, and remained standing to the end.
After her performance, one of the judges Piers Morgan said，“Without doubt that was the biggest surprise I've had in three years of this show. When you stood there everyone was laughing at you.No one is laughing now. That was amazing.”Actress Amanda Holden followed，“I'm so thrilled because I know that we everybody were against you.I honestly think that we were all being very cynical(愤世嫉俗的) and I think that's the biggest wakeup call ever.”
Susan obviously won over the hearts of millions around the world with sensation spreading across the Atlantic. Hollywood actors Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore—who between them have nearly 1.5 million followers—speak highly of her. Kutcher posted a link to the video clip(片段). The Scottish talent made her live American debut via satellite connection on CBS's The Early Show, doing an interview and singing live from her room. And she already accepted an invitation from talk show hostess Oprah Winfrey.
Now Boyle has become one of the world's hottest celebrities. The video clip of her performance has been viewed more than 50 million times on Youtube, becoming a hit on the Internet.

The class of eighth grade at a Los Angeles middle school tap their rulers and nod their heads to the rhythm of the rap video shown on a screen. Their algebra teacher, LaMar Queen, uses rhyme to help them memorize seemingly difficult items to improve their grades.
Queen, 26, is now known at Los Angeles Academy Middle School as the rap teacher, but his fame has spread beyond the 2，200student school in this neighborhood. He's won a national award and shown teachers and parents how to use rap to teach children.“Math is a bad word for many students, but if we put it in a form that kids enjoy, they'll learn，” Queen said. “Rap is what the kids respond to.They don't have a problem memorizing the songs at all.”
Queen's math rap came about by chance. Two months after starting at LA Academy, he was frustrated when kids said his class was boring. They thought that he looked like the singer Kanye West, so they challenged him to rap.
Queen has been rapping since the seventh grade. With his students' challenge on his mind, he pushed aside work on his lesson plans and wrote a rap song Slope Intercept.
Word of his rapping soon reached the school's main office. Principal Maria Borges went to look into it, and came out smiling.“It interests the kids，” she said.“Kids seem to know all the rap songs, and it's helpful for them to remember math rules.” “Some kids who aren't even in Mr Queen's class go around singing his songs，” said Kejon Closure, 13, who went from a Caverage to an A.
In the raps, Queen defines a math concept and works through sample problems step by step. He keeps a relaxed manner when singing with his students. Queen also tries to inspire them. His lyrics tell students “to get As on your papers”，and “to be respectful and listen to your parents”．Sometimes the students appear in the videos as a reward for good grades and behavior.LaMar Queen has been ________ since he began to teach students at Los Angeles Academy.
A．a popular teacher
B．a music teacherics teacher
D．a famous singer________．
A．he is good at composing rap songs
B．his new musical production was shown on TV
C．he created a unique teaching method in math
D．he gave students a lot of confidence
22．We can infer from the last paragraph but one that ________．
A．Queen's teaching method has been well received by both the principal and the students
B．Queen makes math easy and tries to inspire his students in the rap
C．Queen is willing to help the students who are not good at math
D．Principal Maria Borges doesn't think it a good way to teach math by rapping

课后阅读---------Speed and comfort 又快捷又舒适
People, traveling long distances frequently have to decide whether they would prefer to go by land, sea, or air. Hardly anyone can positively enjoy sitting in a train for more than a few hours. Train compartments soon get cramped and stuffy. It is almost impossible to take your mind off the journey. Reading is only a partial solution, for the monotonous rhythm of the wheels clicking on the rails soon lulls you to sleep. During the day, sleep comes in snatches. At night, when you really wish to go to sleep, you rarely manage to do so. If you are lucky enough to get a sleeper, you spend half the night staring at the small blue light in the ceiling, or fumbling to find your ticket for inspection. Inevitably you arrive at your destination almost exhausted. Long car journeys are even less pleasant, for it is quite impossible even to read. On motorways you can, at least, travel fairly safely at high speeds, but more often than not, the greater part of the journey is spent on roads with few service stations and too much traffic. By comparison, ferry trips or cruises offer a great variety of civilized comforts. You can stretch your legs on the spacious decks, play games, meet interesting people and enjoy good food----always assuming, of course, that the sea is calm. If it is not, and you are likely to get sea-sick, no form of transport could be worse. Even if you travel in ideal weather, sea journeys take a long time. Relatively few people are prepared to sacrifice holiday time for the pleasure of travelling by sea.
