one hand and a plastic carrier bag in the other.There was nobody else in the street except two youths.They were standing in a dark shop doorway.One of them was very tall with fair hair,the other was short and fat with a beard.The youths waited for a few moments,and then ran quickly and quietly towards Mrs Riley.The tall youth held her from behind while the other youth tried to seize her handbag.Suddenly,Mrs Riley threw the tall youth over her shoulder.He crashed into the other youth and they both landed on the ground.Without speaking, Mrs Riley struck both of them on the head with her handbag and walked calmly away.The two surprised youths still sitting on the ground when Mrs Riley crossed the street towards a door with a lighted sign above it.Mrs Riley paused, turned round, smiled at the youths and walked into the South West London Judo(柔道)Club.65.The two youths were standing in a dark shop doorway because ______ A.they had nothing to do B.they were homeless C.they were waiting for a victim D.they were guarding the shop 66.What did Mrs Riley do to the two youths ? A.She hurt them seriously B.She taught them a lesson C.She reported them to the police D.She sent them to a judo club 67.The story tells about an elderly woman who ______ A.went shopping at night B.was on her way home C.had just left a shopping center D.had a skill of self-defence(B)amazon.com Dear Customers, I love slipping into a comfortable chair for a long read –as I relax into the chair ,I also relax into the author’s word ,stories and ideas.The physical book is so elegant that it disappear into the background ,and what remains is the author’s world.Today,we at Amazon are excited to announce Mindle, a wireless ,portable reading device with instant access to more than 90,000 books, magazines ,and newspapers.We’ve been working on Mindle for more than three years.Our top design objective was for Mindle to disappear in your hands – to get out of the way –so you can enjoy your reading.We also wanted to go beyond the physical book.Mindle is wireless ,so whether you’re lying in bed or riding a train ,you can think of a book ,and have it in less than 60 seconds.No computer is needed –you do your reading directly from the device We chose the same wireless technology used in advanced mobile phones.But unlike phones there are no monthly wireless bills ,no service or data plans ,and no yearly contracts.There is no software to install.We want you to get lost in your reading and not in the technology.Mindle uses a new kind of display called electronic electronic paper.Sharp and natural with no strong light ,reading on Mindle is nothing like reading from a computer screen.Mindle weighs only 10.3 ounces –less than a paperback – but can carry two hundred books.Enjoy learning about Mindle and many thanks!Jeff Bezos Founder ＆CED 68.This passage most probably is a(n)____ A.advertisement B.news story C.lab report D.letter of thanks 69.From the passage we learn that the Mindle is a device which________ A.has neither wires nor weight B.is operated by a computer C.disappears while you read D.can find a book within one minute 70.Which the device,the reader is able to ____ A.enjoy reading when driving a car B.improve reading skills C.gain access to free software D.get rid of heavy books made of paper 71.Different from mobile phones,Mindle ______ A.has a much more friendly screen B.can work in the absence of electricity C.doesn’t involve regular fees D.is wireless and can be used anywhere(C)Small discoveries in Indonesia are causing a stir in the science world.Researchers have unearthed(挖掘)tiny bones that they believe belong to an entirely new human species.If that’s true ,it will change how we think about our ancestors.Clues that the little people may have lived long ago were first revealed last year in the scientific journal Nature.Scientists said that they had found the bones of a three-foot-tall female on the island of Flores, in Indonesia.When they looked more closely ,they saw that the nearly complete skeleton(骨骼)belonged to a full-grown adult.Researchers named her Hobbit,after the tiny heroes of the Lord of the Rings books.Now the team is saying it has unearthed even more pieces of the puzzle ,including a jawbone and parts of arms ,legs and hands from several individuals, as well as stone tools.They reported their find in Nature this month.“The new evidence makes it very clear that these people are a new species ,distinct from modern humans,”P(pán)eter Brown, a scientist on the team ,said.They named these ancient humans Homo floresiensis.Brown says that these little people lived as recently as 12,000 years ago.If Homo floresiensis was a different species from modern humans, that would make our family tree bigger than we knew.It means, says Brown, that “until recently ,a relative shared the planet with us.”

Many scientists think a new species is unlikely.Some argue that the bones must have belonged to modern humans whose small size was the result of a genetic problem.Daniel E.Lieberman,a scientist at Harvard University,thinks that the debate over the discovery is healthy.He believes that the questions and arguments raised by critics will help us learn more about these unusual skeletons.”Disagreement is an important part of the scientific process,”Lieberman said.“ As far as I’m concerned,the story’s only just begun.”

72.Researchers name the skeleton Hobbit because ______ A.it is a figure described in the Lord of the Rings B.it resembles the tiny heroes in a set of books C.it proves to be a full-grown adult D.it belongs to an ancient human species 73.Small discoveries in Indonesia are important because _____ A.they are revealed in the scientific journal Nature B.they are made by Peter Brown ,a famous scientist C.they are about ancestors of modern humans D.they might provide new evidence for human study 74.According to Daniel E.Lieberman ________ A.Homo floresiensis doesn’t exist B.Disagreement leads to further research C.The investigation hasn’t begun yet D.Our family tree is bigger than we knew 75.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage? A.Comparison between Different Peoples B.Arguments over Human Origin C.Discovery of a Possible New Human Species D.History of Indonesian People(D)Rail passengers are being forced to pay thousands of pounds more in fares as a result of poor advice from the national telephone helpline and individual stations, a consumer organisation reveals today.Research by Which? found that in some cases passengers are being charged almost double the cheapest price because of errors made by staff.Which? asked 25 questions of both station staff and the National Rail Enquiries(NRES)helpline.Only half of the 50 questions were answered correctly.If customers had followed all the advice given ,they would have been ￡1,263.60 worse off.Bad advice was given for the cheapest fare for a single journey between London and Grantham.For a ticket bought on the day of travel,both NRES and a King’s Cross station clerk quoted GNER’s ￡44.50 fare ,ignoring a Hull Trains service which leaves 10 minutes earlier and costs just ￡20.Some of the most costly misinformation was given for journeys where season tickets should have been recommended.Passengers making a return journey between Swindon and Penzance twice in a week could buy a ticket from one company for ￡70 which would cover all the travel.But both NRES and station staff quoted ￡67 for each journey, making ￡134.However, the NRES website proved to be a much more reliable source of information.Which ? also checked “the earlier you book, the cheaper the ticket” claims by five companies and found this was not always the case.On some services, prices went up and down at random.Ithiel Mogridge,52,gave one example of poor advice :”Last Christmas I found my brother a ticket on the thetrainline.com to travel from Blackburn to Yate.While the direct route was ￡51, this one involved a change in Newport and cost just ￡21.I emailed the details to him and his partner.They went to Blackburn station ,where the clerk insisted the fare was ￡51.” Malcolm Coles, editor of which.co.uk ,said :”Staff training needs to be improved.In the meantime ,we’ve designed a checklist, available at which.co.uk/ railadvice.“

76.According to the passage “which ?”is a _____ A.national telephone helpline B.department under the British Rail C.consumer organisation D.website under the National Rail Enquiries 77.When the author said that customers “would have been ￡1,263.60 worse off”, he was telling us that customers would have _______ A.saved ￡1,263.60 if they had followed the advice B.spend ￡1,263.60 more than the lowest price C.used ￡1,263.60 for the survey of 25 questions D.been cheated of ￡1,263.60 from the poor advice 78.The phrase at random in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “_________” A.casually B.purposefully C.exactly D.inevitably 79.The passage is mainly concerned with the phenomenon that ________ A.train passengers get bad advice on fares B.rail passengers are ill-treated by station staff C.booking clerks and the telephone helpline offer reliable information D.rail passengers can get cheaper tickets if they book earlier(E)Directions : Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph.There is one extra heading which you do not need.A.Current situation and future of reality shows B.Audience’s reaction to reality TV C.Critics’ relevant comments D.Attractions for producers and participants E.Definition of “watch and dial ”show F.Introduction to new reality shows 80.European television had the idea of taking ordinary people and turning them into “stars ”by putting them in unusual situation.”Big Brother”(created in Holland)was one of the first.A group of people were locked in a small house with cameras running 24 hours a day.It was called a “watch and dial ”show because viewers vote by telephone to decide who should leave or stay.81.“Big Brother” was probably the fist of the new reality shows,but such a programme has developed.Many have found appeal by having a theme to them,but most are based on the principle of “survival of the fittest ”by eliminating participants as the series progresses.So we have the dating shows where winners either pair off or stay true to their partners outside the TV studio.Then there are those that test people’s abilities for specific jobs like running a kitchen, becoming an interior designer or a top model.82.Critics say these programmes are basically bad television, but people watch them.So why are there so many of them? For the viewer it’s an opportunity to “people watch”.It’s natural to like watching other people.They’re interesting.We can imagine what we would do in that situation.We get to know the characters and see them grow and develop week after week.And of course, television is the perfect place to watch people.Like the theatre or cinema we can look at other people and they can’t look back.But with television, we can watch in the privacy of our own homes, We watch,but we don’t have to admit it to anyone.83.The TV companies like reality shows because they are cheap to produce and attract younger viewers, which advertisers like.The last “Big Brother” in Britain attracted enormous advertising revenue.They aren’t dependent on “star” actors with enormous salaries.And your actors won’t go on strike.And why do people participate in them ?Well ,for fame and money of course.In the past ,appearing on television wasn’t for ordinary people.You had to be good at something ,like sport, or reading the news, or acting.But not any more 84.It seems that most shows do well at the beginning but then the viewing figures begin to fall.And it varies from country to country too.For example ,one show had an adopted child try to guess the identity of her real father,and another had a family arguing over an inheritance.Both were cancelled after one episode.Perhaps the novelty has worn off.Certainly, reality TV seems to appeal much more to the younger audience.And now there are so many shows around even the young have become more critical.Reality show will probably survive—it’s just no longer so easy to make a successful one.第Ⅱ卷（共45分）Ⅰ.Translation Directions: Translate the following sentences into English ,using the words given in the brackets.1．你擦一下窗好嗎？（mind）

第二篇：2005年高考英語(yǔ)試題及答案

第一節(jié) 填空（共10小題上，每小題1分，滿分10分）

短文閱讀，根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文后76～85的空格里填上適當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~或短語(yǔ)，并將答案轉(zhuǎn)寫(xiě)到答題卡上。

注意每空一超過(guò)3個(gè)單詞。

個(gè)單詞。The population of the United States is growing older and will continue to do so.According to a report,___39___million Americans will be 65 or older by the year 2010,___51___million by 2020, and 65 million by 2030.The “graying” of the United States is mainly due to the fact that people in the U.S.are living longer.As a matter of fact, the number of U.S.citizens 85 years old and older is growing six times as fast as the rest of the population.It is also largely due to the old-growing of the “baby boomers”, the generation born after World War II.In 1957, over 4.3 million babies were born.More than 75 million Americans were born between 1946 and 1964, the largest generation in U.S.history.In less than twenty years, millions of them will become elderly people.The “graying” of the U.S.will greatly affect the nation’s family and workforce.One likely development will be a gradual change in the family unit;it will move away from the nuclear family and towards a multigenerational family.The other likely development will be a change in the proportion(比例)of the nation’s

workforce.In 1989 there were 3.5 workers for every person 65 and older;by the year 2030, there will only be 2 workers for every person 65 and older.Title: 1.________

Dear Sir or Madame,I’m very glad to be invited to the English summer camp.I prefer to go in July because I’ll have to prepare myself for the new school term

in August.It seems all the activities you offer are attractive and meaningful.But I’d like to attend the English lectures, from which I can get more information on British and American culture.With the coming of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, more and more foreigners are eager to know about China.So I hope to teach foreigners Chinese and spread Chinese culture.It’s been a dream for me to visit Beijing.Could you organize a tour around the city during the camp?

Thank you very much.Yours truly,Li Ping

2009年上海市中考英語(yǔ)試題參考答案和聽(tīng)力材料

1?30(略）

31.A【解析】考査固定搭配。have a look at= look at，類似用法還有have a swim, take a walk等，都是兼類詞的用法，這些詞既可作動(dòng)詞又可作名詞。故選A。難度適中。

32.D【解析】本題考查介詞。在確指的某一天或星期幾，包括在這一天的早、中、晚時(shí)，用介詞on，故選D。本題易。

33.C【解析】本題考查代詞的用法。句意為：游覽期間外國(guó)游客問(wèn)了我許多有關(guān)中國(guó)文化的問(wèn)題。所填代詞作asked的賓語(yǔ)，故用賓格me。難度適中。

34.C【解析】由句中的two hats可排除all和none，它們都表示多者中的數(shù)量；由looks的第三人稱單數(shù)形式?jīng)Q定本題選C。因neither作主語(yǔ)時(shí)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用第三人稱單數(shù)形式，而both用復(fù)數(shù)形式；Do you have another one?更加印證了前文指的兩頂帽子都不合適。故選C。本題稍難。

35.B【解析】本題考査感嘆句。感嘆句分為兩大類：一是what感嘆名詞，二是how感嘆形容詞或副詞。本題brave為形容詞，故選B。難度適中。

36.D【解析】此處考査few, a few, little, a little的用法。因此空修飾Chinese(漢語(yǔ)），為不可數(shù)名詞，故排除A、C，因空前有only ,表示“僅會(huì)一點(diǎn)”，故選D。難度適中。

37.B【解析】本題考查形容詞的比較等級(jí)。由后面的than可知此處用比較級(jí)，又因much修飾比較級(jí)，故選B。難度適中。

38.C【解析】本題考査詞性。因taste為系動(dòng)詞，所以后接形容詞，而A、B、D都是副詞，故排除。本題易。

39.A【解析】本題考査主從復(fù)合句的時(shí)態(tài)。語(yǔ)法規(guī)定：當(dāng)主從復(fù)合句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞都發(fā)生在將來(lái)時(shí)，主句用一般將來(lái)時(shí)，從句用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。此處主句用了一般將來(lái)時(shí)態(tài)，顯然從句要用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。故選A。本題稍難。

40.C【解析】本題考査時(shí)態(tài)。由already可知用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)，表示“已經(jīng)告訴了……”。難度適中。

41.A【解析】本題考查時(shí)態(tài)。while表示“當(dāng)……的時(shí)候”，由前文的was working說(shuō)明后文也是過(guò)去的某個(gè)時(shí)態(tài)，故排除B、C、D。而且while往往引導(dǎo)進(jìn)行時(shí)態(tài)。本題易。

42.A【解析】本題考査被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)?？紤]主語(yǔ)many houses與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞damage之間的關(guān)系，不難看出是被動(dòng)的，而且本句的發(fā)生時(shí)間為過(guò)去時(shí)，故選A。難度適中。

43.D【解析】本題考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞的用法。句意為：Alex僅僅4歲的時(shí)候就會(huì)下棋。不難看出此處是can的過(guò)去式用法。故選D。本題易。

44.B【解析】本題考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。let為使役動(dòng)詞，后接不帶to的動(dòng)詞不定式，即動(dòng)詞原形。故選B。難度適中。

45.C【解析】本題考查固定搭配。practice doing sth.為固定用法。故選C。本題稍難。46.A【解析】本題考査連詞。做此類題需先分析兩個(gè)分句的關(guān)系。根據(jù)句意：_約翰幾次沒(méi)有爬上山頂，他沒(méi)有放棄。不難看出前后的轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故選A。本題易。

47.D【解析】本題考査連詞。帶有祈使句的復(fù)合句，如果前后兩句是順承關(guān)系，就用and連接；如果是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系就用or連接。此處屬于前者。句意為：堅(jiān)持寫(xiě)日記，你的英語(yǔ)就會(huì)

第–1 –頁(yè)

提高。故選D。難度適中。

48.B【解析】本題考査賓語(yǔ)從句。特殊疑問(wèn)句作賓語(yǔ)從句，主要考慮語(yǔ)序和時(shí)態(tài)。語(yǔ)序?yàn)殛愂稣Z(yǔ)序，故排除A、C、D。句意為：請(qǐng)你告訴我你將什么時(shí)候參觀上海的世界博覽會(huì)好嗎？故選B。難度適中。

49.C【解析】本題考查同義詞辨析。watch側(cè)重于“觀看”；look是指“看”，強(qiáng)調(diào)看的動(dòng)作，不知結(jié)果，而且是不及物動(dòng)詞，后接賓語(yǔ)時(shí)需加at;see是指“看見(jiàn)”強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)果；notice是指“注意到”。句意為：屋子太黑，沒(méi)有燈，我不能清楚地看見(jiàn)東西。故選C。難度適中。50.A【解析】本題屬于詞義辨析。A.有幫助的；B.有害的； C.有力的;D.很壞的。根據(jù)句意“在你到一個(gè)新地方前看

51.B【iB析】本題屬于同義詞辨析。A.炫耀;B.關(guān)掉；C.脫下，起飛;D.延期。根據(jù)句意“幫助節(jié)約能源”可知“人們參加關(guān)燈活動(dòng)”，故選B。本題易。

52.D【解析】本題屬于同義詞辨析。A.因?yàn)椤t到；B.對(duì)……生氣;C.對(duì)……熟悉；D.對(duì)……負(fù)責(zé)。句意為：我們校長(zhǎng)上學(xué)期邀請(qǐng)Christine負(fù)責(zé)英語(yǔ)節(jié)。顯然D選項(xiàng)是正確的。本題稍難。

53.D【解析】考查同義詞。well-known和famous都是“著名的，眾所周知的”。其他三項(xiàng)與此無(wú)關(guān)。本題易。

2014上海市高考英語(yǔ)試題（含解析）

Listening Comprehension

（Omitted）

Grammar and vocabulary

Section A

Passage A

25.本題考查非限定性定語(yǔ)從句。由于先行詞為New York，故填關(guān)系副詞where引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句，同時(shí)在從句中做狀語(yǔ)。

26.本題考查不定式在句中做目的狀語(yǔ)。根據(jù)后面內(nèi)容some money to pay the daily expenses（一些錢(qián)來(lái)支付日常費(fèi)用）可知，是為了賺錢(qián)，故填To earn。

27.本題考查狀語(yǔ)從句的連詞。根據(jù)設(shè)空以及后面內(nèi)容I was offered a good position, I would resign at once（我被提供一個(gè)好職位，我就馬上辭職）的邏輯關(guān)系可知，這里填“一??就??”或“只要??”。故此處填as soon as 或 as long as。

28.本題考查過(guò)去分詞表示“人的心理感受”。句意為：經(jīng)過(guò)一段時(shí)間，高額的生活費(fèi)用成了我本來(lái)就已經(jīng)疲憊的肩膀上的負(fù)擔(dān)。故填exhausted。

29.本題考查條件狀從句的連詞。根據(jù)句意?I want to have a better career advancement, I had to find work in the city“??我想要一個(gè)更好的職業(yè)發(fā)展，我就不得不在城市里找工作”可知，前句表示條件，故填if。

30.本題考查名詞性從句的連詞。根據(jù)句式結(jié)構(gòu)可知，本句是一個(gè)主語(yǔ)從句做主語(yǔ)，而連詞又在從句中做動(dòng)詞had told的賓語(yǔ)，故填連接代詞what。

31.本題考查短語(yǔ)have difficulty in doing sth的搭配，故本空填adapting。

32.本題考查考查倒裝句。由于從句N(xiāo)ot until I returned位于句首，且有否定詞，因此句子用部分倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)，再根據(jù)句子的時(shí)態(tài)---一般過(guò)去時(shí)，故填did。

Passage B

33.本題考查冠詞用法。由于engineer是可數(shù)名詞，而electrical前面為元音讀音，故該空填不定冠詞an。

34.本題考查動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)和語(yǔ)態(tài)。根據(jù)?and looks like a mini shop可知：首先本句用的是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)；其次本句是并列謂語(yǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)；又由于The machine和equip是動(dòng)賓關(guān)系，故該空填該動(dòng)詞的一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)is equipped。

35.本題考查非限定性定語(yǔ)從句。根據(jù)句式結(jié)構(gòu)可看出，這是一個(gè)非限定性定語(yǔ)從句，而空中所缺的成分既代替先行詞his invention，又在從句中做主語(yǔ)，故用關(guān)系代詞which。

36.本題考查反身代詞。根據(jù)前句I couldn’t find a manufacture who could deliver what I wanted可以推斷“所以我自己做”。故填myself。

37.本題考查形容詞比較級(jí)。該自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)英語(yǔ)為huge outdoor vending machine，但是作者認(rèn)為用術(shù)語(yǔ)the term “automatic shop”相比之下應(yīng)是“較合適”，即用比較級(jí)形式。由于appropriate為多音節(jié)形容詞，故前面加more。

38.本題考查考查動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)。根據(jù)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)In recent years可知，該句用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)。故正確答案為has forced。

39.本題考查現(xiàn)在分詞做結(jié)果狀語(yǔ)。根據(jù)前句?about 400 village shops closed句意“??大約400家村店關(guān)閉”可以看出結(jié)果是“促使當(dāng)?shù)卣o掙扎的村店提供經(jīng)濟(jì)支持??”，故用現(xiàn)在分詞urging。

40.本題考查介詞用法。根據(jù)短語(yǔ)offer sth to sb/ sth可知，該空填to。Section B

41.G 本題考查名詞搭配。由于在超市里，所以是閱讀食物標(biāo)簽（labels）。故選G。

42.C 本題考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)搭配。根據(jù)所給詞匯以及?yourself to a healthier lifestyle，只有commit yourself to（承諾??）符合句意。故選C。

43.L 本題考查動(dòng)詞用法。根據(jù)后面內(nèi)容some of the burden of doing it all yourself以及前面動(dòng)詞help可知此空應(yīng)填relieve（減輕），構(gòu)成“??能夠有助于減輕獨(dú)自做這事的一些負(fù)擔(dān)”。故選L。

44.F 本題考查動(dòng)詞用法。根據(jù)句子邏輯，此句意思為“政府不必通過(guò)法律來(lái)強(qiáng)加（impose）更健康的生活方式，如戒煙”。故選F。

45.E 本題考查形容詞用法。根據(jù)設(shè)空，本空填形容詞，而alert（警覺(jué)的）不符合句意，只有g(shù)entle（文雅的）符合句意。故選E。

46.B 本題考查動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)用法。本句句意為“英國(guó)和瑞典政府引進(jìn)了所謂的交通燈系統(tǒng)來(lái)吧食物分類為健康的或不健康的”，短語(yǔ)classify ?as?表示“把??分類為??”，故選B。

47.K 本題考查副詞用法。根據(jù)?customers can see at a glance how much fat, sugar, and salt each product contains__47__by looking at the lights on the package（顧客們只要看包裝上的指示燈一眼就能看出每一個(gè)產(chǎn)品含有多少脂肪、糖和鹽）可知，此空填simply。故選K。

48.J 本題考查動(dòng)詞用法。由于空后所接的是賓語(yǔ)從句，所以該空填及物動(dòng)詞，結(jié)合后面indicates的意思可知，該空填signals（表示）。故選J。

49.A 本題考查形容詞用法。根據(jù)前面“綠燈表示三種營(yíng)養(yǎng)的量是健康的”可知“黃燈表示三種營(yíng)養(yǎng)的量可能有問(wèn)題”，因此消費(fèi)者應(yīng)當(dāng)留心（alert）。故選A。

50.H 本題考查名詞詞義。根據(jù)句子red means that the food is high in at least one of the three nutrients（紅燈意味著至少三個(gè)營(yíng)養(yǎng)中的一個(gè)是高的）可知，這樣的食物應(yīng)當(dāng)有節(jié)制地（in moderation）吃。故選H。

Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do.My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical.I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that.That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers.I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time.In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly.Neither did my family.Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application.After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone.Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty.I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria.Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea.But I was about to find out.After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation.Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family.I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse.For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse.But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man.The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.36.What do we know about the author?

Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents(洋流).Most do it using satellites and other high-tech equipment.However, ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way---by studying movements of random floating garbage.A scientist with many years’ experience, he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States.There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes — about 60,000 in total — fell into the ocean in a shipping accident.He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back.As expected, the company told him that they didn't.Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a

great experiment.If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed, he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing(海灘搜尋)because winds and currents join here, and as a result, there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area.Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed.In a year he collected reliable information on 1, 600 shoes.With this data, he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents, and publish the findings of their study.As the result of his work, Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean.He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts, with 500 subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand.They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves.41.The underlined phrase swap meets in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _____.A.fitting roomsB.trading fairs

42.Ebbesmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out _______.A.what caused the shipping accident
