10．Goldie's Secret
She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall．No way could I have sent her away．No way，not me anyway．Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before．"We're moving house"；"No space for her any more with the baby coming．""We never really wanted her，but what could we have done？She was a present．"People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal．And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen．
I called her Goldie．If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name．She was so unsettled during those first few days．She hardly ate anything and had such an air（樣子） of sadness about her．There was nothing I could do to make her happy，it seemed．Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous（以前的） owner's．But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down．Always by my side，whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire．
That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk．We were a long way from home，when she started barking and getting very restless（焦躁不安的）．Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could．
By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie．But when I saw her licking （舔） the four puppies （幼犬） I started to feel sympathy towards them．"We didn't know what had happened to her，"said the woman at the door．"I took her for a walk one day，soon after the puppies were born，and she just disappeared．""She must have tried to come back to them and got lost，"added a boy from behind her．I must admit I do miss Goldie，but I've got Nugget now，and she looks just like her mother．And I've learnt a good lesson：not to judge people．
5．How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house？B
A．Shocked．
B．Sympathetic．
C．Annoyed．
D．Upset．
6．In her first few days at the author's house，Goldie．A
A．I felt worried   
B．was angry          
C．ate a little       
D．sat by the fire
7．Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because sheD．

 B．heard familiar barking
C．wanted to leave the author

8．The passage is organized in order ofA．

分析 本文是一篇記敘文，記敘了作者在她家門口有一條狗，起名為戈爾迪，剛開始這只狗在她家很不安，但是幾周后戈爾迪平靜下來，當作者和戈爾迪一起散步的時候，戈爾迪跑回以前的家（農場）．

解答 5．答案：B．細節(jié)理解題．由原文第2段She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her．There was nothing I could do to make her happy，it seemed．Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's．劃線句子表明作者同情被遺棄的小狗，希望幫助它高興起來．
6．答案：A．細節(jié)理解題．由第二段第二行"She was so unsettled during those first few days．She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her．"可知在最初幾天里，她是如此的不安．她幾乎沒有吃任何東西，所以選A．
7．答案：D．細節(jié)理解題．由倒數第三段最后一句"Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could．"最后我抱不住她了，于是她沖到地上，盡快地跑向遠處的一個農舍．可知她找到了自己熟悉的地方，所以選D
8．答案：A．推理判斷題．由第一段作者先發(fā)現狗、第二段第二行"She was so unsettled during those first few days、第五行But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down．"可以推出答案，所以選A

點評 做閱讀時經常犯錯的主要原因是，僅憑讀過文章后殘留在腦海中的一絲印象來勾選答案，這樣便很容易掉入出題人故意設布下的題目陷阱．所謂閱讀理解，對于題目的理解一定要忠實于原文，因此，每一道題都應該與原文作全面的對比與核查，再得出答案．也就是說，閱讀理解的每一道題目，在原文都應該有明確的出處，我們把這一出處叫做原文相關句，（1）排除與原文相關句主題不一致的選項（2）排除與原文相關句態(tài)度相反的選項  （3）排除用于過于極端或負面的選項（4）注意結合文章主旨和主題去排除．

1．My wife and I have always been friendly with the clerks at the local convenience store．I don't think many people appreciate what a difficult job these folks have．They work for a little over minimum wage and I often wonder how they make ends meet．
One of the clerks，Charlie，was always wearing his glasses but he didn't one day．I asked him about it and he said they'd been out of order and that he couldn't afford a new pair．His family needed money．It was obvious that he was having a difficult time．
We wanted to help him，so we turned to our own eye doctor for assistance with a plan．We had his secretary contact him，asking him to come in for an eye exam for free．We told the doctor to let him order whatever glasses he wanted and that we would pay for them．Although Charlie questioned what was going on，the doctor just told him that someone had offered the money for his new glasses．When we went in to pay the bill，the doctor told us he was so touched by our idea that he   waived  the exam fee and only charged us for half the price of the glasses!
It was so wonderful to see Charlie in her new glasses and he enjoyed telling all the regular customers how the gift came about．I'm sure that upon hearing her story，ideas of kindness may have emerged in the minds of many．
12．What does the author think of the job at the local convenience store？D
A．less-stressed   
B．tiring     
C．easy     
D．low-paid

A．It was very warm and fine．
B．His old glasses were broken．
C．His glasses were missing．
D．He forgot to wear his glasses．
14．From the passage，we can infer thatC．
A．Charlie was a young man with skills
B．Charlie knew who paid the money for the new glasses
C．Charlie didn't support his family with enough money
D．Charlie entirely accepted the money for the new glasses

15．Dear Alcohol，
You've been around forever．I can remember all the pain you've caused for me．
Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life？I do．He loves you．Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me．He's addicted to you，to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them．You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street，crashing into two other cars．He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night．
Do you remember the night of my first high school party？You were there．My friends were intrigued by you．They treated you as if they were never going to see you again，drinking all of you that they could．I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely．"I'm so embarrassed，"they said as I held their hair back so that they could vomit （嘔吐）．"I'm sorry，"they said when I called taxies for them，walking them out and paying the driver in advance．"This won't happen again，"they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped．Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you．
Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons？Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car？He died the next morning too．His sister walked home from her dance lesson，and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio．She didn't realize her brother was in the midst of it all．She never saw him again．And it's all your fault．
I wish you'd walk out of my life forever．I don't want anything to do with you．Look at all the pain you've caused．Sure，you've made people happy too from time to time．But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable．Stop luring （引誘） in the people I love．Stop hurting me，please．
Sincerely，
Anonymous

11．So you're trying to cut back on spending．Congratulations．You've made a wise decision but it is not necessarily a path that is easy to follow．The temptation to over-spend is an ever-present，inviting itch（癢） that you'll need to avoid scratching（抓撓）．But，armed with the right set of principles，you can keep it at bay
Step 1
If you are going shopping，make sure you only take enough money with you to buy what you need．Extra money is often an excuse for extra spending．If you shop with charge cards，be sure that credit limit is only high enough to keep you from making impulsive（沖動的）purchases．
Step 2
Separate necessary spending and indulgence（放縱）spending．It's a good way to keep that money from flying out of your wallet．If you always pay for necessities first then you won't have the cash flow for the extras that，while you'd love to have them，you don't really need them．
Step 3
Take another person along who understand your goal  of keeping spending down．They can be your second conscience when you see that cute purse on sale and are attempting to justify the purchase．A frown and a shake of the head from your shopping buddy might be the extra signal  that persuades you to leave it behind．
Step4
Don't spend more than you have to，even on necessities．Shopping around you'll find that many everyday items that you do have to buy can be bought for less．Try the store brand instead of the name brand，and shop where you can find bargains．Saving a little money in this area may allow you a bit of self-indulgent spending now and then，as long as you have to"earn"that extra spending by saving．
36．What can we infer from the first paragraph？C
A．The customers are traveling on the sea     
B．The customers are trying to spend less．
C．The customers can't help spending more．
D．There are principles about spending．
37．What can  we do to stop ourselves from spending impulsively？B
A．Avoid a company going to shop with you．
B．Limit the amount of money you take．
C．Spend less on what you need most
D．Pay for what you need most first．
38．According to the passage，A．
A．using charge cards encourages extra spending
B．people often buy things that they don't want
C．the shopping buddy may help you spend more
D．you should buy whatever you want
39．The purpose of the author writing this article isD．
A．to give advice on how to shop
B．to help customers shop wisely
C．to guide people in using credit cards when showing
D．to offer advice on how to keep spending down
40．What does the word"it"the first paragraph refer to？D
