7、 spent several days and nights thinking of ways to earn money to go see my girlfriend. I finally came to the conclusion that I would get a job and work hard to earn some money to give to my dad. I applied to Safeway and I ended up getting the job.I have been working at Safeway for about a month now

8、and work hard to earn money to go see my girlfriend. The other day my mom had surprised me and told me that she asked her boss if she could use their business miles(旅費(fèi)) to buy me a ticket down to Florida for two weeks. I was very thankful and told her I would help pay for anything that I have to. Th

9、e thought of me working hard and getting a job showed my mom that I really cared and was trying my best to be a successful person.

13、凡事要靠自己的努力，作者就只憑借自己的努力滿足了打動(dòng)父母，如愿以償?shù)哪玫搅巳タ磁笥训钠薄?. D推理判斷題。由作者在第一段最后的“Ive always complained about the quote(引語(yǔ)). Although over time I have told myself to learn from it.”盡管作者總是抱怨，但自己也承認(rèn)學(xué)從中學(xué)到了東西，這正是父母引用的目的所在。2. A考查詞義猜測(cè)。由下文的解釋“because I havent been able to see her and she is having a rough time in school.”

14、可以看出，女朋友離開(kāi)去上大學(xué)了，自己感覺(jué)很孤獨(dú)，再加上女友在學(xué)校“having a rough time”，由此可以看出，這正是上文所說(shuō)的killer，一些使人煩惱的事情。3. C推理判斷題。當(dāng)作者提出讓父母出錢(qián)買票去看女友的時(shí)候，父親的答復(fù)是：作者得出錢(qián)，即：“if I brought him some money he would help me pay for the ticket.”后來(lái)作者找了份工作(ended up getting the job），并努力賺錢(qián)買票(work hard to earn money to go see my girlfriend.），正是作者的實(shí)際行動(dòng)

15、感動(dòng)了作者的媽媽，從而“asked her boss if she could use their business miles(旅費(fèi)) to buy me a ticket down to Florida for two weeks.”4. D主旨大意題。作者用開(kāi)篇用一句歌詞引出了主題，只要：只要努力就能得到自己所需要的。中間用自己的一次經(jīng)歷進(jìn)行了論證，最后一段在回扣：trying my best to be a successful person.， I believe that you cant always get what you want but if you try someti

16、mes, you get what you need. ，也就是：we should try to rely on ourselves for everything。3.【2012上海青浦高三期終】 (You may read the questions first.)Transformers: Dark of the MoonTheatrical Release Date: July 1, 2011Studio: Paramount Pictures Director: Michael Bay Genre: ActionAdventureSequel Sci-Fi 3DThe Autobot

26、llion or more in assets. It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”.The majority of the 457 people surveyed are self-made, first-generation rich. Fifty-two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their childr

27、en just how wealthy they are, and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth. One in there parents said they had never thought to do it.They are worried that their children would become lazy, spend money freely, make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.Only 34 per

28、cent strongly agreed that t heir children would be able to handle any inheritance(遺產(chǎn)) they plan to leave them.“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation,” said Sallie Krawcheck, president of the Bank of America

29、 Globai Wealth and Investment Management. “Our research, however, uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”The trend is led by the worlds richest man Bill Gates, who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife, the Bil

30、l and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金會(huì)), and not to his children.“We want to five it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact,” he said.Of his plans for his children, Gates said: “I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage they will need to work but they

31、 will feel reasonably taken care of.” 1We can learn from the passage that .Arich parents may not know how to manage their inheritanceBrich parents dont equal rich kids, at least in the USCAmerican children dont get to inherit their parents wealthDpoor children dont expect themselves to be as rich as

34、ndependence for children【答案與解析】文章主要介紹了大多數(shù)美國(guó)富人處理他們資產(chǎn)的方式，告訴人們保持孩子的獨(dú)立性比金錢(qián)更重要。1.B細(xì)節(jié)推斷題，根據(jù)第二段、第三段可知，在美國(guó)，大多數(shù)富人們不把他們所有的資產(chǎn)告訴孩子們，也不會(huì)讓孩子們繼承太多的資產(chǎn)，可以得出家長(zhǎng)富有并不等于孩子富有。B項(xiàng)rich parents dont equal rich kids, at least in the US.(至少在美國(guó)是這樣）家長(zhǎng)富有并不等于孩子富有，符合題意。2.C邏輯推斷題。根據(jù)第五段，“Only 34 percent strongly agreed that t heir chil

35、dren would be able to handle any inheritance(遺產(chǎn)) they plan to leave them.”(僅有34%的家長(zhǎng)堅(jiān)信他們的孩子有能力處理好留給他們的任何遺產(chǎn)）可以推出66%的家長(zhǎng)對(duì)孩子們處理資產(chǎn)的能力表示懷疑。所以C.doubt their childrens ability to handle wealth(懷疑他們的孩子處理資產(chǎn)的能力）符合邏輯。3.D根據(jù)第六段，第一句是一個(gè)that引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句，句意：那兒有一個(gè)關(guān)于富有家長(zhǎng)們的預(yù)料，that引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句揭示了富有家長(zhǎng)們?cè)趺礃拥念A(yù)料，那就是他們肩負(fù)著把他們的財(cái)富傳給下一代的責(zé)任。因此

36、，這里they指的是那些富有的家長(zhǎng)們。4.D根據(jù)最后一段句意，我要給孩子們一些錢(qián),但不是一個(gè)有意義的百分比，他們將需要工作,但他們會(huì)感覺(jué)合理照顧。由此可知，這樣做的目的是不讓孩子們過(guò)度的依賴父母，要讓他們工作，學(xué)會(huì)獨(dú)立。D.the importance of independence for children(獨(dú)立對(duì)孩子們的重要性）符合最后一段的句意。5.【湖北省八校2012屆高三第一次聯(lián)考】Squirrels often communicate with whistles, chirps and chucks, which sound like the word “chuck” Whistl

47、eads up and becameAlert(警惕的）Creatures that were more frightened simply ran for their lives and dived into caves”可以看出，松鼠們對(duì)于“the recorded alarm calls”反應(yīng)很忙敏感，也就是說(shuō)他們能理解。6.【2012濰坊三縣聯(lián)考】 After moving to the United States, immigrant groups trying to fit in tend to choose high calorie fatty foods in an attem
