There is no other five-year-old like him. He has a potato-shaped head and a voice that is not easily forgotten. He is not a trouble maker，but trouble follows him wherever he goes.
Crayon Shinchan(蜡笔小新) enjoys great popularity in China. He has many fans in Hong Kong， Taiwan and on the mainland. And he is one of the hottest cartoon characters(卡通人物) in his home country，Japan.
But，the trouble-maker's show was thought to be the No. 1 most unwanted cartoon program by Japan's Parents' Association(家长协会) on April 18.
More than half the parents who took part in the study thought Shinchan was not a good model for children. They believed his actions and words were grown-up in nature and not fit for kids.
Many parents and education experts in China agree with them. Shinchan，they say，is really offensive. “Crayon Shinchan is full of dirty humor(幽默). The boy shows some terrible thinking which doesn' t match his age，”said a teacher from Beijing Normal University. The teacher further pointed out that Shinchan destroys the image(形象) of a polite，hard-working boy. She is afraid that some children may copy his action and harm their psychological(心理的) development.
The teacher and many others in China think thru Shinchan is a cartoon for grown-ups，not for children.
But some，kids disagree. Jiangxin，a middle school student in Beijing，became a fan of Shinchan after he first saw the cartoon two years ago. He said it was Shinchan's humor，courage (勇气)，and cleverness that made him and his friends love the little cartoon character. “Shinchan looks at the grown-ups' world with a kid's eyes，”said Jiang.“We watch it just for fun.”But Jiang also agreed that Shinchan is not good for all ages.“It may not be fit for little kids. They may try to blindly copy him.”
Shinchan's“father”，Japan's popular cartoonist(漫画家)，Yoshito Usui，never thought Shinchan would result in such a discussion.
He said that Shinchan is a childish copy of Japan's middle-aged men. The boy does everything that grown-ups would like to do，but don't dare to do.“People can easily excuse him because he's only five years old，”said Yoshito.
1. Many children like Shinchan very much mainly because _____________.
A. he always does something funny
B. the cartoon character is suitable for all ages
C. they think he is humorous，clever and brave
D. he is a childish copy of Japan's middle-aged men
2. Teachers and parents dislike Crayon Shinchan because ________.
A. he looks very funny
B. he has caused such a discussion
C. the character was invented by a middle-aged cartoonist
D. he is thought as a bad model for children to follow
3. The underlined word “offensive”in Paragraph 5 probably means ___________.
A. humorous　　　B. bad-looking　　C. funny　　　D. unpleasant
4. According to the passage，it is likely that Crayon Shinchan will NOT _________.
A. say dirty words　 B. tell lies　  C. work hard at his homework
D. make a loud noise in class

答　　案
Ⅰ. 1. A　 get dressed.
2. C　 两个句子都是强调寻找的过程，动作（look for ）。而find 是强调结果的。
3. A　 alone 是做表语的。而lonely 是做定语的。
4. C　　　　5. B　　　　6. D　　　　　7. B　　　　8. C　　　　9. D
10. 分析：“died”和“was　dead”都是一般过去时，因“for　ten　years”是表示延续时间的状语，谓语时态要用现在完成时，所以选A或B都不行。“has　been　dead”和“has　died”虽然都是现在完成时，但因“die”是终止性动词，且在有for…或since…的句中，就必须选用延续性动词be。这样，正确答案应该选C。
Ⅱ. 3. other，student　　　　4. how，to　　　　5. give，ring
Ⅲ. 1. opens　　　　　　　2. biggest　　　　　3. are going to visit / will visit
4. Did；do　　　　5. Without
Ⅳ. 1. C　　　2. D　　　3. D　　　4. C
Ⅴ. 1）根据原文这里表示是当爱迪生小的时候，故选C
2）选B。ideas表示“想法，思想”
3）选C。该句缺少主语是爱迪生的父母，因此称“他们”
4）选D。根据后文指上学时间，因此应在学校
5）选A。“问了不少问题？”
6）选D。而且这些问题与文章内容无关。
7）选B。老师认为这些题目不该问，所以认为爱迪生不聪明。
8）选C。后来他妈妈不得不亲自教他。
9）选A。根据常识或排除可知对科学感兴趣，发明了许多有用的东西。
10）选D。根据常识或排除可知对科学感兴趣，发明了许多有用的东西。
Ⅵ. 1. E　　　2. F　　　3. G　　　4. A　　　5. B　　　6. D　　　7. C
本题考察的是日常交际用语的运用能力。要求给每个句子配位。在理解各句的句意后，运用日常交际用语在不同场合的应答，就能逐一完成。如本题第一句的“Hello，who’s that，please?”根据II栏中E项的答语“This is Mary speaking”可以推断出这里电话用语（请问您是哪位）。再如第四句“Would you like to come to supper?”（你来吃晚饭好吗？）按照英美人士交际习惯，应该先说表示乐意，并致谢，就不难找到II栏中的a项应答。

My husband hasn't stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It's funny now but it wasn't at the time.
Last Friday，after doing all the family shopping in town，I wanted a rest before catching the train，so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the station coffee shop--- that was a cheap self-service place with long tables to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor，put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place，and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I went back with the coffee，there was someone in the next seat. It was one of those wild-looking youngsters，with dark glasses and worn clothes，and hair colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did surprise me was that he'd started to eat my chocolate!
Naturally，I was annoyed. However，to avoid trouble---and really I was rather uneasy about him --- I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper，tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me closely. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could hardly believe it. Still I didn't dare to start an argument. When he took a third piece. I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought，“Well，I shall have the last piece.”And I got it.
The boy gave me a strange look，then stood up. As he left he shouted out.“This woman's crazy!”Everyone stared. That was embarrassing(令人难堪的) enough，but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red---as red as his hair---when I realized I'd made a mistake. It wasn't my chocolate that he'd been taking. There was mine，unopened，just under my newspaper.

C. wanted a newspaper and some chocolate to take home to her family
D. bought a newspaper and some chocolate so that she could keep a place at the table

A. because she wasn't sure whether the youngster was a boy or a girl
B. because the youngster was dressed so strangely
C. because there was already someone sitting in the next seat
D. because the youngster’s behavior seemed rude
3. When the woman saw the boy go on eating the chocolate，she felt ____.
A. too tired to start an argument
B. too shy to look in the boy's direction
C. more and more disappointed at losing the chocolate
D. more and more angry with the boy
4. The woman's face turned red ____.
A. because she realized that she had been quite wrong about the boy
B. because she realized that the boy was poor and angry
C. because she saw everyone staring at her

When tea and coffee were first introduced to Europe in the 18th century，people had different ideas about their use. Some said that tea and coffee were harmful to humans and they could cause people to die.

So every afternoon, he went there to read 　7　 　at a time. One day, however (然而), he couldn’t find 　8　 　from its usual place and was leaving when he saw an assistant signing (示意) to him.

三.Reading comprehension
Let children learn to judge (判断) their own work. When children learn to speak, other people do not correct (纠正) their mistakes all the time. If we correct too much, they will stop speaking. Let themselves understand the difference between the language they speak and the language other people around them speak. Day after day, they will make some changes to make their language like other people's language. In the same way, children can learn to do many other things without others' help. For example, to walk, run, climb, and ride a bike-make themselves understand how they should do it. Slowly they can make some changes they need.
But in school we never let a child himself find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We usually think he never knows his mistakes if we do not tell him or he never corrects them if we do not make him do it. We should try to let him find out the answers to the problems, and the good ways of working them out with the help of other children if he wants.
Can teachers give the students answer books if they do maths problems? Let them correct their homework all by themselves. When the students tell their teachers that they can't find the ways to get the right answers, the teachers should help them. Let the students know what they must learn, how to judge their own understanding (理解力), how to know what they know or what they do not know. These are the most important.
(1).they text tells us that the children should learn things by(通过) _______.
A.listening to other people　　B.doing what other people do
C.making mistakes and then correcting them　　D.asking other people many questions
(2).Which of the following is right? The teachers _______.
A.never give the students answers　　B.don't let the students make mistakes
C.don't always correct the students' mistakes when they make mistakes
D.only give the students the answers when they do problems
(3).The writer thinks the teachers in school should _______.
A.let the students help each other　　B.teach the students less good ways
C.correct more of their homework　　D.teach the students more book knowledge
(4).This text shows that learning to speak is _______.
A.different from learning other things　　B.a very important thing
C.more important than learning other things　　D.just like learning other things

(1)选C。这篇文章告诉我们孩子应通过何种方式学习事物。从第一段内容：让孩子学会判断他们自己的学习或工作。当孩子学说话时，其他人不要总是纠正他们的错误。如果纠正太多，孩子就不会再愿意说话了。从以上内容可得出应通过犯错和纠错的方式学习事物。
(2)选C。哪句话是正确的①老师从不给学生答案；②老师从不让学生犯错误；③当学生犯错误时老师不要总是纠正学生的错误；④老师只给学生答案当他们有问题的时候。前面两个较容易看出是错误的，这两种说法太绝对；从最后一段可得出第④种说法也是错误的。老师应帮助学生；让学生知道什么是必须学的，怎样判断自己的理解力，怎样去理解他们所知道或是不知道的东西，而不应是单纯地给答案。从第一段里可得出第③种说法是正确的。
(3)选A。作者认为学校的老师应当让学生互相帮助。B 教给学生较少的好方法，错误。文章提倡教给学生好的方法。C 纠正他们作业中的更多错误，这种说法也不对，第三段中“Let them correct their homework all by themselves” 作者认为：让他们完全自己纠正他们的家庭作业而不应当是老师。D 教给学生更多的书本知识，文章提倡的是教给学生好的方法，此选项错误。
(4)选D。这篇文章指出学说话就像是学其它事情一样，从第一段内容可判断出来。

so much 用来修饰不可数名词，意思是“如此多的”
so many 与可数名词连用
试比较下面两个句子：
You eat so much food.你吃的太多了。
You have so many books to read.你有那么多要读的书。
语法：
used to 的用法如下：
（1）肯定句：
used这个词没有人称的变化，to后面接动词原形。
否定句是didn’t use to….
·When I was a child, I didn’t use to like apples.　当我还是孩子的时候我不喜欢苹果。
疑问形式是did you use to…?
·Where did you use to live before you came here?　当你来这儿之前你住哪儿？
（2）含有used to 的句子的反意疑问句不要usedn’t + 主语，而用didn’t ＋ 主语。
He used to smoke, didn’t he?　 他过去常常吸烟，是吗？
Yes, he did./ No, he didn’t. 　是的，他吸。/ 不，他不吸。
（3）used to 表示过去的习惯动作， 而不是现在的。

Amy used to be outgoing.　　　　　　　　　　　　　 爱米过去性格外向。
Tina used to have long and straight hair.　　　　 蒂娜过去有一头直的长头发。

小时候，每到夏天我们都要去游泳。
He used to/would spend every penny he earned on books．
过去，他通常把挣来的钱全花在买书上。

I used to travel by air a great deal of when I was a boy. My parents used to live in South America and I used to fly there from Europe in the holidays. An airhostess would take charge of me and I never had an unpleasant experience. I am used to traveling (习惯于某事)by air and only on one occasion have I ever felt frightened. After taking off, we were flying low over the city and slowly gaining height（逐步升高）, when the plane suddenly turned round and flew back to the airport. While we were waiting to land, an air-hostess told us to keep calm and to get off the plane quietly as soon as it had touched down. Everybody on board was worried and we were curious to find out what had happened. Later we learned that there was a very important person on board. The police had been told （被告诉，得知）that a bomb had been planted on the plane. After we had landed, the plane was searched thoroughly（被彻底搜查）. Fortunately, nothing was found and five hours later we were able to take off again.
