The regular teacher

11、 had called in sick and left a lesson plan going over the rules of 15 . I hated these rules and hardly understood them myself, even though I was a writer. The English language is one of the most 16 subjects in the world. As I looked at the textbook, I knew that even if I told this student all the di

12、fferent 17 about commas, he wouldnt remember them. I was also in no mood for a long lesson. My mom had died just a few short weeks ago. I missed her so much. I wandered (徘徊) around feeling half 18 inside. All I wanted to do was to stay in bed, but my young family was struggling to get by and I knew

13、I had to take every day of work I could. I looked at the textbook again but couldnt 19 it because my eyes were so watery. All at once, however, I remembered the rule of thumb (经验法则) I used whenever I was writing something.” A period is the end of a sentence or a thought.” I said. “a comma, on the ot

14、her hand, is just a brief pause (暂停) before the sentence continues on.” When I finished saying this, my heart suddenly felt 20 . I smiled and thought of my mom continuing on in a place much brighter and happier than _21 I was in now. That little moment of light helped me as I continued to miss my mo

15、m over the months and years to come. Recently, I remembered it once again when I saw this quote (引用) in a book I was reading: Death is not a(n) 22 , only a comma.” Our lives are a sentence and a 23 that goes forever. Our 24 here is only a part of it. Our death here is only a comma. Write your story

21、B Tom Sawyer tried to cut the cupboard with the knife. Then it was the time for him to dress up. However, Tom didnt want to take the trouble to wash his face and hands. And Mary uncovered his secret and he had to use soap to wash his face again. The clean part was just like a mask on his face. Thank

22、s to his own cousin Mary, Tom had become a different person. Finally, he got into his shoes. Then, they wen to Sunday School. Tom hated the school very much. When the children came to the school gate, Tom walked slower and asked another boy, “Bill, have you got a yellow ticket?” Soon after they reac

23、hed a deal. Tom gave him a fishing hook and he got the yellow ticket. In the same way, he exchanged for some red tickets and some blue tickets. In this school, the teacher had set a rule to encourage children to recite the Bible: if he could recite two verses, the teacher would give him one blue tic

24、ket; ten blue tickets were equal to one red ticket; ten red tickets could be exchanged for a yellow ticket; if anyone could get ten yellow tickets, the teacher would give him or her a new Bible. Getting the thick book was the greatest honor for children. So they were busy reciting every day. To Tom,

25、 its impossible, so he thought of a simple way. He exchanged his small things in other childrens hands. In this way, he got many cards. At the beginning of the class, the 35-year-old teacher made a daily speech. Tom was playing with the boys around him. He pulled a boys hair and pinned another, but

26、when they turned around, he just read the 初三英语二模 第 4 页 共 8 页 book carefully, but the children began to talk noisily in the latter one third of the talk. Some children even began to fight. Suddenly, the room turned silent because some visitors came into the room. Three adults and one young girl enter

27、ed. To Toms surprise, the little girl was just the “angel”. Tom thought of his meeting with the girl and the adventure in her garden. Among the visitors, the old man was somebody and all the teachers, men and women, made up to him in many different ways. Then it was the time to give prize to those c

28、hileren who had got ten yellow tickets. The room was quiet. Nobody had enough tickets. When hope was dead, Tom stood up with nine yellow tickets, nine red ones and ten blue ones. Then, children suddenly realized that they were cheated by Tom. The teacher didnt believe Tom could get so many tickets,

29、but the number of tickets was exact. The prize was given to Tom Sawyer and he was introduced to the old man. 28. According to the structure of the passage, we can put the sentence “Do you know why?” at the end of _. A. the first paragraph B. the second paragraph C. the third paragraph D. the fourth

30、paragraph 29. What does the underlined word “somebody” in the fifth paragraph most probably mean? A. a certain person B. a person of some importance C. the angel D. the teacher 30. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. Tom was a clever boy. B. Tom got a Bible as a prize. C.

31、 Mary was very helpful to Tom. D. Tom could recite 2,000 verses. C A typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in peoples mind is an entertainer holding a whip and a chair. The whip gets all of the attention, but its mostly for show. In reality, its the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a c

32、hair in front of the lions face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion becomes puzzled and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the

33、 chair. How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g. lose weight., start a business, travel more)only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress? This upsets me to no end because while

34、 all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting (相矛盾的) information. The end result is that we feel like we cant focus or that were focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less

35、progress, and stay the same when we could be improving. It doesnt have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is to focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful p

36、eople. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to 初三英语二模 第 5 页 共 8 页 achieve, someone you want to become take action at once. If youre clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way. In what sense are people similar to a

37、lion facing a chair. 31. In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair? A. They feel puzzled over choices. B. They hold on to the wrong things. C. They find it hard to make changes. D. They have to do something for show. 32. What is the authors attitude towards the experts mentioned in p

38、aragraph 3? A. Tolerant B. Doubtful C. Respectful D. Supportive 33. When the world is “waving a chair in your face”, youre advised to_. A. wait for a better chance B. break your old habits C. make a quick decision D. ask for clear guidance D Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austens most

39、famous work, might be updated, 200 years ago. Austens popularity is rooted in her intelligence. But today she would certainly have had a very different life, as would her characters. Heres my own suggestion. Its a truth finally and generally acknowledged that a single woman with brains should have e

40、qual opportunities to men, however disadvantaged she may feel sexism (性别歧视). “My dear husband,” said his hopeful wife one day. “Have you heard that the local store, standing empty for so long, is taken over by a bright young businesswoman?” Her dull and indifferent (漠不关心) husband replied that he had

41、 not. “but it is, it is,” she replied excitedly. Mr Dullhusband made no reply. “Dont you want to know her plans?” she cried with some impatience. “Well, my dear, the rumor is that she had already set up a string of successful business in northern England, though how a woman can know anything about t

42、hat is beyond me. She will move in herself next month.” “What is her name?” “Bingley.” “Is she married or single?” “What a question! And none of your business. But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys.” “How so? How can it possibly affect them?” “My dear love, those lazy boys need somet

43、hing to wake them up. There are certain to be jobs going.” “Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place.” “Nonsense, my love, how little youve noticed the world has changed. Shes got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification, Im t

44、old. She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call.” “Me? No. Perhaps you can take an interest. You still have your looks, after all. She may even offer you a job.” “Oh, thats not likely. These new chances belong to the younger generation. But now you mention it, I think Ill go

45、 along all the same.” And Mrs Bennet went wrong. That was 10 years ago. She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company. It would remain the case, of course, that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the 初三英语二模 第 6 页 共 8 页 company board, that her salary would be lower than her male col

46、leagues, her bonus of a more “female” dimension and her lifespan among the citys business leaders shorter than theirs. Still, shed no doubt have enjoyed Davosand might even have hobnobbed (巴结) with influential figures. 34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage A. Austen was born 20

47、0 years ago. B. Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice. C. Austens success lies in her wisdom. D. Austens updated work gains popularity. 35.
