课时作业 6阅读理解ALike any new ninth­grader on the first day of school, Joemar Class had ninth­grader emotion (情绪). He's not used to school in Hartford. He's used to going to school in his hometown of Florida, used to seeing his friends, used to having class in Spanish.“Nervioso，”he said in Spanish.We first met Joemar in mid­October in the San Juan Airport. His father, Guillermo Class, had sold his car to buy plane tickets to get his kids and fly them up from Puerto Rico. The island was almost destroyed (毁坏) by the deadly storm — Hurricane Maria.Now, they are settling into their new home in Hartford's South End. A week later, and, using his wife's car, Class drove 16­year­old Joemar to his first day at Bulkeley High School. After a short ride, he got out in front of his new school. Inside, he met Gretchen Levitz — the school's program director.“I see you have a new uniform (校服)，” Levitz said. “You look great. Are you ready for a good first day？”Then he met a couple of teachers.“Hello，” they each said in Spanish. They asked where he's from, and told him they were happy to see him. Then, Levitz took him on a quick tour of the school before classes began — to her office, the school store, the library, and the dining hall.A total of 19 languages are spoken in Bulkeley High School. “We have so many new students coming here from other countries every single day，” Levitz said. “So it's not like he's the only one who has that feeling.”“You could tell he's a little worried，” Guillermo said as we left. “But, at the same time, he's looking forward to it.”【语篇解读】　本文是新闻报道。文章主要报道了一名十六岁的男孩转校上学第一天的经历。1．What kind of feeling did Joemar have on his first day of school?A．Angry.    B．Excited.C．Nervous.  D．Relaxed.答案与解析：C　细节理解题。由第一段中的“He's not used to school in Hartford”、第二段“‘Nervioso，’ he said in Spanish”以及最后一段中的“he's a little worried”可知，到新学校的第一天Joemar感到紧张不安。2．Why did Joemar leave Florida?A．His old school closed down.B．He wanted to see his mother.C．He expected to have a new life.D．His town was hit by a terrible storm.答案与解析：D　细节理解题。由第一段中的“his hometown of Florida”和第三段中的“fly them up from Puerto Rico.

I would always say that I  was trying to study, but there were always things like work and my kids that  would not allow me to start.Now I realized that those were only excuses. What stopped me was that I was afraid to start studying again. I always believed I would learn by myself.One day, however, my son told me that he was sad because his friends would come over and I didn't understand them because I didn't speak  English. He was also sad because I could never help him with his  homework. That  same day, I told myself, “Rocio, you have to start  believing in yourself and you will see you can make it.”The next day, I went downtown to look for a big banner (横幅) in front of the school which said that they offered classes for adults. I came in to see if I could join, but the classes were closed already. That night I took the kids to the movies, and on the way back, I told them we would take a new route. I ended up getting lost. That's the way I found Chaffey College. The following Monday, I went to ask for information. They told me that summer school was starting that week.That's how I started studying English last summer. It is difficult, but I have had great rewards. My daughter had written a story for school. It was about the female they most admired and why. She wrote that I was the person  she most admired because I had started going to college. I will never forget this.【语篇解读】　十年前作者来到美国，由于工作和生活中的琐事一直不能学习。直到有一天儿子跟作者说他很伤心，因为作者英文差，听不懂他的朋友们所说的话，而且也不能帮助他做作业。从那时起，作者开始下决心学英文。5．According to the passage, the author probably is a ________.A．teacher      B．doctorC．father       D．mother答案与解析：D　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“My daughter had written a story for school.

It found that those who had a large network of friends lived longer than those with fewer friends by more than 20%.This study isn't the only one that shows friendships can be good for our health.Lots of research has shown social support and good health are connected. One recent study focuses on people with ovarian cancer. It says those with lots of social support had much lower levels of a protein connected to more dangerous cancers. This made their treatments (治疗) work better. In another study, women with breast cancer in a support group lived twice as long as those not in a support group. They also had much less pain. Sheldon Cohen, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, says strong social support helps people deal with stress. “There may be more benefits as well，” Cohen says. “Friends encourage you to look after yourself better. And people with more friends have higher self­confidence, so they feel they have more control over their lives.”Other studies show people with fewer friends are likely to die sooner after having a heart attack, compared with people having a strong social network. Having lots of friends may even lower your chance of catching a cold. “People with social support have fewer immune (免疫的) problems and lower levels of stress，” says Tasha Howe, who works at Humboldt State University. “We are social animals, and we were born to be in groups，” Howe says. “We have always needed others to survive better. It's in our genes.” People with a big social group are likely to be more at peace, which leads to better health, Howe says.【语篇解读】　多项研究表明，拥有朋友对我们的健康有益。9．What does it mean when people have high levels of the protein mentioned in Paragraph 2?A．They have a stronger social network.B．The treatments for cancers work better.C．They have low risk of developing cancer.D．They have high risk of developing dangerous cancers.答案与解析：D　细节理解题。根据第二段的“It says those with lots of social support had much lower levels of a protein connected to more dangerous cancers.”可知，这种蛋白质的水平高意味着引发更危险癌症的风险高。10．What does the underlined word “benefits” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Advantages.  B．Stresses.C．Methods.     D．Concerns.答案与解析：A　词义猜测题。根据画线词前面的“strong social support helps people deal with stress”以及后面的“Friends encourage you to look after yourself better...”可推断，这里是指拥有朋友还有其他一些好处。11．What can we infer from Tasha Howe's words?A．Humans really need friends.B．Humans should live peacefully.C．Certain stress is good for our health.D．There are many ways to have good health.答案与解析：A　推理判断题。根据第四段“Tasha Howe”所说的话可知，人类天生就是社会性的动物，我们需要彼此才能更好地生活，所以我们真的需要朋友。
