---The person with theft was seen in court.
A.was charged; appear B.charged; to appear
C.was charged; to appear D.charged; appear
【答案】B
【解析】
句意：-故事的结尾是什么？-这个被控告偷窃的人被看到出现在法庭上。was charged被控告，是一般过去时态的被动语态；charged是过去分词；appear出现；to appear是动词不定式形式。这句话中已经有了谓语动词was seen，所以这两个空都应使用非谓语动词形式。第一个空是后置定语，修饰前面的名词the person，并且构成被动关系，故用过去分词；第二个空使用的句型是see sb. do sth.看到某人做某事，当这个句型用于被动语态中的时候，动词不定式应带上to。故应选B。
9.--I can’t find my name on the list. Can I talk to your manager?
--Sorry, but my duty. I’ll contact her secretary.
A.it’s go up to B.it goes away C.it beyonds D.it goes beyond
【答案】D
【解析】
句意：——我在那个名单上找不到我的名字。我能和你的经理交谈吗？——对不起，这超过我的职责。我会联系她的秘书。go up to走向；go away离开； go beyond超越，超过。beyond“超越”是介词，没有第三人称单数形式，故不加s。根据I’ll contact her secretary.可知我要联系她的秘书，故推断我无法和经理交谈，这是在我的职责之外，故选D。

考查形容词、副词的比较级。这里是“the+比较级+主谓，the+比较级+主谓”的结构，意思是“越……就越……”； more 更多；less更少；easy容易的，形容词；easily容易地，比较级形式more easily，副词修饰动词achieve；应该是付出的精力越多，越容易实现目标；故选B。
11.The old man lived alone and _____ the age of 88, he _______ a cold winter morning.
A.at, passed away in B.on, past away in
C.at, passed away on D.on, past away on

If you feel sad or upset, remember not to watch a happy movie. A sad movie may be more suitable for you.
Some scientists at Ohio State University, the U.S., have found that sad movies can make people happier. They published their study in a magazine called Communication Research.
Scientists asked 361 college students to watch a sad movie called Atonement. The movie tells a story of two lovers who were separated. They died during World War II at the end of the movie. The 361 college students answered questions from the scientists before, after and three times during the movie to find out their different feelings, including sadness.
According to the result of the survey, scientists found out that people felt better after watching the sad movie. Scientists believed this was because the movie made them think about their own lives and relationships. Compared to those of the unlucky lovers in the movie, their lives were full of hope.
“I want to live my life to the fullest, and this movie has made me think a lot,” one student wrote.
Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick, the leader of the study, explained that bad moods (情绪) would make people more thoughtful. “Good moods are generally a sign that everything is fine. You don’t have to worry, and you don’t have to think about problems in your life,” she said. “But bad emotions, like sadness, make you feel terrible about your situation. Therefore, seeing a sad movie may make you feel bad, but that will cause you to think more about your own close relationships and value them more.”
1.The scientists asked the college students to watch Atonement ________.
A.to help them make more friends
B.to make them feel better about themselves
C.to find out how they felt after watching it

Stand-up comedy is becoming popular among the young in China. One person, man or woman, stands on stage and tells funny stories, or funny people or funny things that happened to them. The performers will try their best to make people laugh.
Stand-up comedy is different from other forms of acting. An actor usually has a script(剧本) to fall back on and a team of other actors to rely on. Unlike an actor, a stand-up performer is showing himself or herself but not creating characters. A stand-up performer fails or succeeds depending on his or her own talent. It usually takes days or even weeks of hard work to make people laugh for a few minutes. That’s why stand-up comedy has often been described as one of the hardest acts to complete successfully.
Stand-up comedy can take many forms. It can include a monologue(独白) on funny things that may form a story. It can be simply a series of jokes. It can also be performed almost anywhere — clubs, bars or parties.
Stand-up comedy has come a long way in the West, but it is a new art form in China. Today the most popular stand-up comedy show in China is Rock & Roast(《脱口秀大会》). All of its three seasons were popular, especially the third season. When the third season came out last summer, it took the Internet by storm and soon became one of the hottest TV shows in China. The show is such a big success that it has opened a new door to the golden age of stand-up comedy. More and more young people have begun watching stand-up comedy, and some even start doing it part-time. They say it’s a great way to relax.
