My Favourite Books
Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series(系列)of lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads.
Matilda
Roald Dahl
I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl's writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words. Matilda's battles with her cruel me parents and the bossy headmisres,Miss Trunchbull,are equally fumy and frightening,but they're also aspirational.
After Dark
Haruki Murakami
It’s about two sisters-Eri,a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping,and Mari, a young student . In trying to connect to her sister. Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse ”night people” who are hiding secrets.
Gone Girl
Gillian Fynn
There was a bit of me that didn't want to love this when everyone else on the planet did but the horror story is brilliant. There's tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It's a real whodunit and the frustration when you realise what's going on is horribly enjoyable
The Stand
Stephen King
This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the world's population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those let. Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever.

21.(2017·天津卷)
Suppose you’re in a rush, feeling tired, not paying attention to your screen, and you send an email that could get you in trouble.
Realisation will probably set in seconds after you’ve clicked “send”. You freeze in horror and burn with shame.
What to do? Here are four common email accidents, and how to recover.
Clicking “send” too soon
Don’t waste your time trying to find out if the receiver has read it yet. Write another email as swiftly as you can and send it with a brief title explaining that this is the correct version and the previous version should be ignored.
Writing the wrong time
The sooner you notice, the better. Respond quickly and briefly, apologising for your mistake. Keep the tone measured: don’t handle it too lightly, as people can be offended, especially if your error suggests a misunderstanding of their culture(i.e. incorrect ordering of Chinese names).
Clicking “reply all” unintentionally
You accidentally reveal(透露)to the entire company what menu choices you would prefer at the staff Christmas dinner, or what holiday you’d like to take. In this instance, the best solution is to send a quick, light-hearted apology to explain your awkwardness. But it can quickly rise to something worse, when everyone starts hitting “reply all” to join in a long and unpleasant conversation. In this instance, step away from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down.
Sending an offensive message to its subject
The most awkward email mistake is usually committed in anger. You write an unkind message about someone, intending to send it to a friend, but accidentally send it to the person you’re discussing. In that case, ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry. Explain your frustrations calmly and sensibly — see it as an opportunity to clear up any difficulties you may have with this person.
36. After realizing an email accident, you are likely to feel ____________.
A. curious B. tired C. awful D. funny
37. If you have written the wrong name in an email, it is best to ____________.
A. Apologize in a serious manner
B. tell the receiver to ignore the error
C. learn to write the name correctly
D. send a short notice to everyone
38. What should you do when an unpleasant conversation is started by your “reply all” email?
A. Try offering other choices.
B. Avoid further involvement.
C. Meet other staff members.
D. Make a light-hearted apology.
39. How should you deal with the problem caused by an offensive email?
A. By promising not to offend the receiver again.
B. By seeking support from the receiver’s friends.
C. By asking the receiver to control his anger.
D. By talking to the receiver face to face.
40. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Defining email errors.
B. Reducing email mistakes.
C. Handling email accidents.
D. Improving email writing.

36.C【解析】考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段第二句You freeze in horror and burn with shame.可知選C。

Keep the tone measured: don’t handle it too lightly, as people can be offended, especially if your error suggests a misunderstanding of their culture (i.e. incorrect ordering of Chinese names). 可知選A。
38.B 【解析】考查推理判斷。根據(jù)In this instance, step away from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down可知選B。

Forget Cyclists, Pedestrians are Real Danger
We are having a debate about this topic. Here are some letters from our readers.
■Yes, many cyclists behave dangerously. Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists. But pedestrians are probably the worse offenders.
People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone, quite unaware of what is going on around them. They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere. The rest of us have to evade (避讓) them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision.
The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be, at least for the moment, in worlds of their own that are, to them, much more important than the welfare of others.
——Michael Horan
■I love the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists (Viewpoints, May 29). I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads.
I was walking across Altrincham Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me.The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used.The police do nothing. What a laugh they are!The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets, fluorescent (發(fā)熒光的) jacket and lights at night and in the morning they should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them.
——Carol Harvey
■Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for pedestrians), ride at speed along the pavements, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red.
I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him.
Other road users, including horse riders, manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists?
It's about time they had to be registered and insured, so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be treated and there might be an opportunity to claim.
——JML
Write to Viewpoints of the newspaper.
41.Michael Horan wrote the letter mainly to show that _______.
A.drivers should be polite to cyclists
B.road accidents can actually be avoided
C.sine pedestrians are a threat to road safety
D.walking while using phones hurts one's eyes
42.Carol Harvey suggests that cyclists should _______.
A.be provided with enough roads
B.be asked to ride on their own lanes
C.be made to pay less tax for cycling
D.be fined for laughing at policemen
43.What is a complaint of JML?
A.Very few drivers are insured.
B.Cyclists ride fast on pavements.
C.Pedestrians go through red traffic lights.
D.Horse riders disrespect other road users.
44.The underlined word "they" in the third letter refers to ______.
A.accidents B.vehicles
C.pedestrians D.cyclists
45.The three letters present viewpoints on _______.
A.real source of road danger
B.ways to improve road facilities
C.measures to punish road offences
D.increased awareness of road rules
【答案】41.C 42.B 43.B 44.D 45.A
【解析】這是一篇議論文。本文圍繞一個(gè)主題展開(kāi)一場(chǎng)爭(zhēng)論——誰(shuí)才是馬路安全隱患的威脅。
41.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的最后一句話:But pedestrians are probably the worse offenders. (但是,路人可能才是更嚴(yán)重的罪犯)可知Michael Horan的觀點(diǎn)是,路人對(duì)道路安全存在威脅。故選C
42.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第八段的開(kāi)頭:The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets.可知Carol Harvey建議騎自行車的人應(yīng)該在他們應(yīng)該走的車道去騎行。故選B
43.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第四段第一句話Cyclists jump on and off pavements(which are meant for pedestrians),ride at speed along the pavement, and think they have special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red可知,騎自行車的人沿著人行道快速行駛,并且認(rèn)為他們享有紅燈時(shí)通過(guò)的特權(quán)。所以JML抱怨騎自行車的人騎的太快,對(duì)道路安全產(chǎn)生隱患,故選B
44.詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)最后一段It’s about time they had to be registered and insured, so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be treated and there might be an opportunity to claim可知,JML希望對(duì)自行車擁有者登記,當(dāng)他們撞到行人或者車輛、制造出車禍的時(shí)候,他們能夠被追查到,所以判斷出they在此指的是cyclists。故選D
45.主旨大意題。根據(jù)Forget Cyclists, Pedestrians are Real Danger. We are having a debate about this topic. Here are some letters from our readers. 忘掉自行車吧,行人才是真正的危險(xiǎn),我們正在就這個(gè)話題進(jìn)行辯論。所以通過(guò)一些讀者來(lái)信和文章的標(biāo)題可以判斷出,這三封信表達(dá)了對(duì)道路危險(xiǎn)真正來(lái)源的看法。故選A

【答案】56.D 57.A 58.D 59.B
【解析】本文屬于廣告類文體。主要內(nèi)容是招募愿意幫助有學(xué)習(xí)障礙的志愿工作者。在廣告中提到了招募的志愿者的職位是Volunteer Social Care Assistant ,志愿者將要工作的時(shí)間,地點(diǎn),待遇,以及對(duì)申請(qǐng)人員的具體要求和工作內(nèi)容,同時(shí)要求志愿者需要有愛(ài)心,而且有類似的工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)的人會(huì)優(yōu)先錄用。
56.考查推理判斷。文章開(kāi)頭以自問(wèn)自答的方式向人們發(fā)出號(hào)召,讓人們參與到志愿活動(dòng)中,然后在下文詳細(xì)介紹了志愿者工作的地點(diǎn)、時(shí)間、任務(wù)、要求等,由此可知文章主要目的是宣傳這項(xiàng)工作,故答案選D。
57.考查詞義猜測(cè)。在文章開(kāi)頭作者提出問(wèn)題:你希望通過(guò)你的工作而使別人的生活有所改變嗎?然后鼓勵(lì)人們加入進(jìn)來(lái),由此判斷加入進(jìn)來(lái)后就會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的愿望,即通過(guò)自己的工作讓別人的生活更加有意義,故答案選A。此題易誤選答案為D,make it 意思是“成功地做到或得到”因?yàn)殚_(kāi)頭作者只是問(wèn)讀者是否想獲得工作中的滿足感,而沒(méi)有提出這是一份工作招聘信息,所以D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。
58.考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段內(nèi)容:But your primary concern is to let them know they are valued 可知志愿者們除了幫助保護(hù)智障患者的安全外,最重要的任務(wù)就是讓那些被幫助的人感到自身的價(jià)值和重要性,故答案選D。
59.考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章末段的小標(biāo)題Skill and Experience Required.和末段中 Previous care-related experience will be a great advantage for you. 可知有先前類似經(jīng)驗(yàn)的人在申請(qǐng)這項(xiàng)工作時(shí)會(huì)優(yōu)先得到錄用,故答案選B。

41.(2014,遼寧卷)
(Q =" Question;" A = Answer)
Situation I
Q: If someone sits right next to me in an empty movie theater, is it rude to move?
A: Maybe, but nobody will fault you for it. Chances are that close sitter doesn't realize he disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance. You undoubtedly aren't the first person he's met who needs enough room. Forgive his bad judgment, move quietly and enjoy the show.
Situation II
Q: If I use the bathroom at a store, do I need to buy something?
A: Consider frequency and urgency. Is this a one-time or an emergency? If so, you don't have to buy anything, but it would be kind if you did. However, if you regularly use the bathroom at this place, then you are a customer, and you should act like one.
Situation III
Q: If someone is talking loudly on the bus, is there a nice way to ask him to keep it down?
A: No. Try other means.1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down. 2) Lift your finger in a silence motion(動(dòng)作)and smile. 3) Put on earphones and ignore him.
Situation IV
Q: If I remember my friend's birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened?
A: This is the reason why the word____was invented. "Happy belated birthday!" is short for: "Well, I know I forgot, but then I remembered. Forgive me and happy birthday."
Situation V
Q: Can I lie about seeing a text because I was too busy or lazy to respond(回復(fù)) to it?
A: Don't lie. Receiving a text does not mean you need to respond to it. Why waste a perfectly good lie when the truth will serve? "Yes," you can say if ever asked, "I saw it." No explanation is needed as to why you don't respond.
78.You will get annoyed in a theater when .
A.a person is too active
B.a person is too rude to you
C.a person talks too loudly
D.a person sits too close to you

【解析】文章就日常生活中長(zhǎng)出現(xiàn)的禮貌問(wèn)題進(jìn)行提問(wèn),然后通過(guò)問(wèn)答的方式一一做了解答。
78.細(xì)節(jié)題:根據(jù)situation I里面的回答內(nèi)容的第二句Chances are that close sitter doesn't realize he disturbs you, so he may miss your annoyance.里面的單詞annoyance:可知在戲院如果一個(gè)人坐的離你太近,你會(huì)生氣的。選D
79.細(xì)節(jié)題:根據(jù)situation III里面的回答內(nèi)容的第一個(gè)建議:1) Stare at him until he gets aware of it and quiets down.在公共場(chǎng)所可以故意地看著一個(gè)人這樣讓他安靜下來(lái),所以選B
80.猜詞題:根據(jù)situation IV里面的Q里面的內(nèi)容子:If I remember my friend's birthday a day late, should I apologize or just wish her a happy birthday like nothing happened?可知這里講的是如果朋友生日過(guò)去了才想起,再說(shuō)生日快樂(lè),說(shuō)明這個(gè)生日是被耽誤了,belated的意思是delayed“延誤的”,所以選D

Mark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new computer enviously. Jason was determined not to go against their father’s wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother. He loves experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.
“Dad will be really mad if he finds out you’ve been playing with his new computer” Jason said, “He told us not to touch it.”
“He won’t find out,” Mark said, “I’ll just have a quick look and shut it down.”
Mark had been scolded before for touching his father’s equipment. But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.
It was a strange-looking machine — one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked. “It’s an experimental model,” his father had explained, so don’t touch it under any circumstances.” But his father’s warning only served to make Mark more curious. Without any further thought, Mark turned on the power switch. The computer burst into life and seconds later, the screen turned into colours, shifting and changing, and then two big white words appeared in the centre of the screen: “SPACE TRANSPORTER.”
“Yes!” Mark cried excitedly, “It’s a computer game. I knew it! Dad’s only been pretending to work. He’s really been playing games instead!” A new message appeared on the screen:
“ENTER NAMES
VOYAGE?。?br /> VOYAGE?。?br /> Mark’s finger flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.
“INPUT ACCEPTED.

Bicycle Safety
Operation
Always ride your bike in a safe, controlled manner on campus (校園). Obey rules and regulations. Watch out for walkers and other bicyclists, and always use your lights in dark conditions.
Theft Prevention
Always securely lock your bicycle to a bicycle rack -- even if you are only away for a minute. Register your bike with the University Department of Public Safety. It's fast, easy, and free. Registration permanently records your serial number, which is useful in the possible recovery of the bike stolen.
Equipment
* Brakes Make sure that they are in good working order and adjusted properly.
* Helmet A necessity, make sure your helmet meets current safety standards and fits properly.
* Lights Always have a front headlight -- visible at least 500 feet in front of the bike.
A taillight is a good idea.
Rules of the Road
Riding on Campus As a bicycle rider, you have a responsibility to ride only on streets and posted bicycle paths. Riding on sidewalks or other walkways can lead to a fine. The speed limit for bicycles on campus is 15 mph, unless otherwise posted. Always give the right of ways to walkers. If you are involved in an accident, you are required to offer appropriate aid, call the Department of Public Safety and remain at the scene until the officer lets you go.
Bicycle Parking Only park in areas reserved for bikes. Trees, handrails, hallways, and sign posts are not for bicycle parking, and parking in such posts can result in a fine.
