Last week I went to visit to my former neighbor, Mr. Li. He and I used to living next to each other for many years. About half a year ago, an order came which the old building, along with many other similar ones, were going to be pulled down to make room for a main street. So I had to move apart. Mr. Li now lives in the suburbs near a beautiful park. His new apartment is much big than before. The only problem is that it took quite a long time to get to the downtown area. Therefore, Mr. Li doesn’t seem to worry about the long distance. He says that new subway line is to be built in a few year and he is sure life will be better in the future.

【分析】本文讲述了作者在回家的公交上目睹的事情．一个小孩突然大哭，母亲怎么都劝不住，坐在旁边的男人生气地指责母亲应该给孩子他想要的，母亲平静地说他想要那个男人的帽子，听到这个，整车人都大笑了起来．
【解答】
1．is改为was．考查时态，这件事情是发生在昨天下午的，故使用一般过去时，be动词应用was．
2．which改为whom．考查疑问代词，此定语从句"all of whom kept silent"的先行词为passengers，为sb．，故应用whom．
3．sudden前加a．考查固定搭配，all of a sudden突然，为固定搭配．
4．loud改为loudly．考查副词，cried为动词，修饰动词的为副词，故应改为loudly．
5．Thus改为However．考查连词，根据前后语境"母亲用尽一切办法让小孩不哭""小孩不停哭"表明母亲的办法不管用，为转折关系，故改为However．
6．of改为to．考查介词短语，在…旁边为next to．
7．去掉wants后的it．考查从句，本句what he wants为定语从句，what已指代了他想要的东西，故it多余．
8．and改为but．考查连词，前后句"如果可以我一定给他""他想要的是的帽子"前后位转折关系，故改为but．
9．Heard改为Hearing．考查分词，hear和all the passengers为主动关系，故用现在分词做时间状语，故改为Hearing．
10．passenger改为passengers．考查名词，所有的乘客，乘客应为复数，故改为passengers．
三、 阅读理解
21.     Many artists late in the last century were in search of a means to express their individuality. Modern dance was one of the ways some of these people sought to free their creative spirit. The beginnings of modem dance were happening before Isadora Duncan, but she was the first person to bring the new dance to general audiences and see it accepted and acclaimed.
    Her search for a natural movement form sent her to nature. She believed movement should be as natural as the swaying of the trees and the rolling waves of the sea. Her great contributions are in three areas.
    First, she began the expansion of the kinds of movements that could be used in dance. Before Duncan danced, ballet was the only type of dance performed in concerts.  In the ballet the feet and legs were emphasized, with virtuosity (技巧高超) shown by complicated, codified positions and movements. Duncan performed dance by using all her body in the freest possible way.  Her dance stemmed from (源自) her soul and spirit. She was one of the pioneers who broke tradition so others might be able to develop the art.
    Her second contribution lies in dance costumes (服装). She discarded corset, ballet shoes, and stiff costumes.  These were replaced with flowing clothes, bare feet, and unlimited hair.  She believed in the natural body being allowed to move freely, and her dress displayed this ideal.
    Her third contribution was in the use of music. In her performances she used the symphonies (交响乐) of great masters, including Beethoven and Wagner, which was not the usual custom.
    She was as exciting and eccentric in her personal life as in her dance.
68. The best title for the passage would be“_________”.
    A. Dance in the Twentieth Century          B. Artists of the Last Century
    C. Natural Movement in Dance               D. A Pioneer in Modern Dance
69. According to the passage, nature meant_________ to Duncan.
    A. something to conquer        B. a model for movement
    C. a place to find peace       D. a symbol of disorder
70. The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses_________.
    A. Duncan’s further contribution to modern dance
    B. The music customarily used in ballet
    C. other aspects of Duncan’s life
D. audience acceptance of the new form of dance

22. 阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother’s Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores at banks and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker(股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing, “This is Mrs. Tan.”
And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don’t send me cheek already two week long.”
And then, in prefect English I said, “I’m getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.”
Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.
55. Why was the author’s mother poorly served?
A. She was unable to speak good English.          B. She was often misunderstood.
C. She was not clearly heard.                                          D. She was not very polite.
56. After the author made the phone call, __________.
A. they forgave the stockbroker                                     B. they failed to get the check
C. they went to New York immediately                        D. they spoke to their boss at once
57. What does the author think of her mother’s English now?
A. It confuses her.                                                                        B. It embarrassed her.
C. It helps her understand the world.                                     D. It helps her tolerate rude people.
58. We can infer from the passage that Chinese English _________.
A. is clear and natural to non-native speakers           
B. is vivid and direct to non-native speakers
C. has a very bad reputation in America
D. may bring inconvenience in America
