(2018·哈师大附中高三检测)Karen，grown up in a very traditional family in the western United States，maintained high moral(道德的)standards throughout her youth.In 1984，at the age of 23，she married Bill.They were__blessed__with two children，a boy and a girl.
By 1991 their love had deepened，and they were happy.Later that year，Bill developed a white spot on his tongue.He visited a doctor.
One day shortly after that，Bill called Karen to sit beside him.He said with tears in his eyes that he loved her and wanted to live forever with her.The doctor suspected that he had been infected with HIV，the virus that leads to AIDS.
The family was tested.Bill and Karen’s results were positive.Bill had become infected before he met Karen；then he passed the virus on to Karen.The children’s results were negative.Within three years，Bill was dead，“I don’t know how to express what it is like to watch the once handsome man you love and intend to live with forever dying slowly.I cried many nights.He died three months short of ten years of our marriage，” says Karen.Though a doctor told Karen that she would soon follow her husband into death，she is still alive.The infection has progressed to the early stages of AIDS.
Karen is one of about 30 million people now living with HIV/AIDS，a figure larger than the combined populations of Australia，Iceland and Paraguay.According to one UN report，Africa has 21 million of these victims.By the turn of the century that number could reach 40 million and the disease will bring on the greatest disaster in human history.Of the world’s sexually active adults aged 15 to 49，1 in 100 has already been infected with HIV.Of these，only 1 in 10 realizes that he or she is infected.In some parts of Africa，25 percent of adults are infected.
Since the beginning of spread of AIDS in 1981，about 11.7 million people have died of it.It is roughly calculated that in 1997 alone，about 2.3 million people died of it.Nevertheless，there are fresh reasons for optimism in the battle against AIDS.During the past few years，there has been a drop in new AIDS cases in wealthy nations.In addition，promising drugs hold out hope of better health and longer life.

D　解析：推理判断题。作者首先讲述了卡伦及其丈夫查出艾滋病前后生活的反差对比，紧接着分析了艾滋病的现状及研究进展，因此，作者讲述该故事是为了展示患艾滋病的后果。故选D项。
5．The underlined part in Paragraph 1 most probably means “________”．
A．were lucky in having　　 B．were asked to adopt
C．regretted having D．gave birth to
A　解析：词义猜测题。根据文中第一段的she married Bill.They were__blessed__with two children，a boy and a girl.及第二段中的By 1991 their love had deepened...可知，夫妻俩感情很好，结婚后很幸运有了一个男孩和一个女孩。由此可猜测，were blessed with的意思是“很幸运拥有”，故选A项。

(2018·泰安检测)It would have been a success story if Fullerton High School senior Fernando Rojas, the son of Mexican immigrants whose schooling stopped in the eighth grade, was accepted to college.But the 17­year­old achieved a surprising clean sweep—he was accepted to every Ivy League(常春藤)school.
“I didn’t think I would get into any，” Rojas told The Orange County Register on Saturday.“When I got all eight，it was a blessing and a curse because I had to choose.I was excited and scared and everything at the same time.”
The first call came from Yale University in February.Within weeks calls, emails and letters followed from the other seven universities.Rojas also was accepted by Stanford University and two nearby schools, the University of California, Irvine, and California State University, Fullerton.
He is one of four children of Raul Rojas, 59, and wife, Maria, 56, who moved to Fullerton from Jalisco, Mexico, in the early 1980s.
A national speech and debate champion, Rojas reasoned that if he applied to the eight Ivy League schools, he might get into one. Sal Tinajero, Rojas’ speech and debate coach at Fullerton, told the newspaper that Rojas is a hardworking self­starter who thrives(茁壮成长) on competition.“His biggest motivation for speech and debate was his parents to know that their hard work meant something，” Tinajero said.
After visiting several campuses, he settled on Yale, which costs $64，000 a year with room and board.He is responsible for $6，000; Yale scholarships and federal grant money cover the rest.
He’ll mostly take it easy during the summer before heading to Yale in late August.He’s considering majoring in Latin American studies and perhaps a career as a lawyer or in international affairs.
【解题导语】　本文讲述了17岁的男孩Fernando Rojas成功地被几所世界知名大学所录取，最后他选择进入了耶鲁大学的事。
8．What do we know about Fernando Rojas from Paragraph 1?
A．His schooling stopped in the eighth grade.
B．He often did some cleaning in the school.
C．People were confident that he would be successful.
D．His admission to famous universities was completely unexpected.
D　解析：推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句But the 17­year­old achieved a surprising clean sweep—he was accepted to every Ivy League(常春藤) school.可知，Rojas能被几所知名的大学所录取是出乎意料的。故D项符合题意。
9．How many universities accepted Rojas altogether?
A．11. B．10.
C．9. D．8.
A　解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知，在二月份Rojas接到了耶鲁大学的电话；在接下来的几个星期之内，他接到了其他七所大学的电话、邮件和信件；他还被斯坦福大学及其附近的两所大学录取。由此可知，他一共收到了十一所大学(1＋7＋1＋2)的录取通知。故A项符合题意。
10．How do we understand what Tinajero said?
A．Rojas is good at speech and debate competition.
B．The hard work of his parents inspired Rojas greatly.
C．Rojas’ parents knew Rojas loved them deeply.
D．Rojas’ motivation was misunderstood by his parents.
B　解析：推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句His biggest motivation for speech and debate was his parents to know that their hard work meant something...可知，Rojas成功的动力来源于他的父母；由此可推知，Rojas父母的努力工作大大地激励了他。故B项符合题意。
11．Why did Rojas choose Yale at last?
A．Yale is famous for Latin American studies.
B．He wants to be a lawyer as his career.
C．He cares more about the expense.
D．Yale is responsible for all his cost.
C　解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的内容可知，Rojas选择耶鲁大学是因为一年64 000美元的大学费用他自己只需承担6 000美元，其余的由耶鲁大学的奖学金和联邦政府的教育经费承担。故可知Rojas是因为学费问题选择进入耶鲁。故C项符合题意。

(2018·合肥高三质检)Many years ago, when we were a young couple with two small children, aged 2 and 4, we were practically impecunious．My in­laws lived from hand to mouth, so we didn’t expect any help from them. My parents lived a great distance away, and I was too ashamed to let them know about our situation.
My husband was trying to earn a living with an old pick­up truck, carrying groceries for local shopkeepers, but it was constantly breaking down. It took almost all the money we had to have it fixed. The truck was also the only means of transportation for us.
We lived in the countryside, and we always used the back door because the driveway led to it. One winter evening, I stepped outside to take a bag of trash to the barrel and almost tripped over something. It was nearly dark, and I had to bend down to see what it was. I could hardly believe my eyes. There sat a large basket loaded with food.
It was heavy, so I called my husband to carry it into the house. Once inside, we discovered two loaves of bread, some butter, several cans of vegetables, a can of orange sauce, and a large turkey. There was so much that I couldn’t remember it all, but it was everything we needed to fix a wonderful dinner—everything except potatoes.
A little while later I remembered that I hadn’t taken the trash to the barrel. By now it was dark, so I had to turn on the yard light—and that’s when I spotted a small bag of potatoes sitting on the porch.
That dinner was the best I could remember.
We weren’t able to thank our donators, though, because we never found out who had been so generous in helping a struggling young family. Whoever it was, we are forever grateful.

【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国的传统节日重阳节的历史发展、名称由来等。
1．on　解析：考查介词。重阳节是在农历九月初九这一天。在特定的某一天用介词on。
2．is regarded　解析：考查动词时态和语态。在中国，九被视为阳数。主语nine和动词regard之间是被动关系，表示“被视为”，故用被动语态；此处是对客观情况的描述，应用一般现在时。
3．how　解析：考查表语从句的连接词。九月的第九天含有两个阳数，“重”在汉语中表示“双倍”的意思，这就是重阳节名称的由来。根据语境可以判断，空处表示“重阳节名称的由来”，故用how引导该表语从句。
4．formally　解析：考查副词。根据空处后的动词set可知，空处修饰该动词，故用副词形式。
5．declared　解析：考查动词的时态。根据该句中的时间状语“In 1989”可知，该句陈述的是发生在1989年的事情，故用一般过去时。
6．the　解析：考查定冠词。the＋形容词，表示一类人。the elderly表示“老年人”。
7．themselves　解析：考查反身代词。1989年，中国政府宣布农历九月初九为“敬老节”，以此来尊敬老人，并让他们过得愉快。enjoy oneself意为“得到乐趣”。
8．being promoted　解析：考查非谓语动词。根据空处前的介词of可知，空处用动词的­ing形式；根据语境可知，主语people和动词promote之间是被动关系，表示“被提升”，故用being promoted。
9．disasters　解析：考查名词复数。人们常常认为菊花酒能消除各种疾病和灾难。根据该句中“diseases and”可知，空处用复数形式。
10．to show　解析：考查动词不定式。如今，人们举办许多活动如组织老人旅游、给老人送礼物以表达对老人的尊敬。根据句意可知，空处表示目的，故用动词不定式。

【解题导语】　本文讲述的是英国最经典的传统——下午茶以及它在英国的发展和影响。
61．with　解析：考查介词。此处是with＋宾语＋过去分词的用法， 作伴随状语。
62．a　解析：考查冠词。pastime“娱乐； 消遣”是可数名词， 此处表示泛指， 且popular以辅音音素开头， 所以前面要用不定冠词a。
63．comfortably　解析：考查词性转换。drinking是动词， 后面要用副词comfortably修饰。
64．was designed　解析：考查动词的时态和语态。Afternoon tea和design是被动关系， 再结合后面的“要追溯到19世纪40年代”可知，此处要用一般过去时的被动语态，故填was designed。
65．fashionable　解析：考查词性转换。occasion是名词， 前面要用形容词修饰， 所以此处填fashionable。
66．popularity　解析：考查词性转换。its是形容词性物主代词， 后面要跟名词popularity。
67．Although/Though/While　解析：考查连接词。“it can be enjoyed at home”和“the best way to experience it is at a smart hotel or café”在意思上是转折关系， 所以此处要用表示让步的Although/Though/While。
68．to enjoy　解析：考查非谓语动词。此处是动词不定式表目的。
69．being asked　解析：考查非谓语动词。avoid后面跟v.­ing, 此处应该是“避开被要求”， 所以要用being asked。
70．have tried　解析：考查时态。句意：我相信一旦你(已经)尝试了， 你就会赞成的。根据句意可知，“尝试”的动作会产生“赞成”的结果， 所以这里用现在完成时。

One possible version：
Dear Sir or Madam，
I am Li Hua, chairman of the Student Union. I’m writing to invite your school to take part in our school’s upcoming Dragon Boat Race from May 25th to 30th on the Pearl River in Shamian, Guangzhou.
The event is a fantastic opportunity for our schools to develop closer ties and to promote cultural exchange. The annual Dragon Boat Festival is one of China’s most important cultural events, commemorating the ancient Poet Qu Yuan, who drowned himself after being accused. It will provide students the chance to learn from each other，improve their boating skills and promote friendship.
We know that Cambridge High School has an outstanding boating team and would like you to take part.We’d appreciate hearing from your reply before April 15th.
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
