题材：哲理故事

【主旨大意】本文是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了很久很久以前，有个印度的国王和一位智者下象棋的故事。国王允诺老人：“如果你赢得比赛你可以拥有任何奖品。”。老人说：“如果我赢得比赛，我想要一粒大米在棋盘的第一个方格，两粒在第二个，四粒在第三个，然后使每个剩余的方格在数量上加倍。”最后,老人赢了。国王命令他的助手们收集了一袋大米。他把一粒放在第一个方格,两粒在第二个，以此类推。国王很快意识到这一问题——即使算上这个国家的所有大米，他仍然没有足够的大米放满所有的方格！

11．B【解析】考查形容词词义辨析。boring无聊的；favourite最喜欢的；dangerous危险的；famous

到宫殿。”故选择A选项。

16．B【解析】考查名词词义辨析。根据后文“No，just rice．”可以推断出老人要的奖品是大米。选择B选项。句意：如果我赢得比赛，我想要一粒大米在棋盘的第一个方格，两粒在第二个。

17. A【解析】考查序数词。根据后面“and then double the amount for each of the rest of the squares．”可以推断出是每一个格子里的大米数量是前一个格子里的两倍。所以第三个格子是四粒米，故选A。句意：四粒在第三个,然后使每个剩余的方格在数量上加倍。

18．D【解析】考查名词词义辨析。whole整个；couple数个；part部分；rest其余的。根据语意“剩下的每一个格子里的数量都是前面的两倍”选择D选项。句意：然后使每个剩余的方格在数量上加倍。

19．A【解析】考查副词词义辨析。instead代替；too也；again再一次；once 一次，曾经。根据语意“你不想要金子或者银器来代替吗？”所以选择A选项。

A(2017•辽宁沈阳)

As an exchange student, I must admit（承认） that at first America was a big culture shock for me.

I stayed with a host family in a small town. My host parents organized a lot of activities in my spare time so that I wouldn't miss home or feel lonely.

However, life was hard to get used to. My main problem was with the language. I failed to understand much in the first few weeks because everyone spoke so fast. Though I managed to get used to it. I still have problems because they used a lot of idioms (习语).

Another difference was with the food. My host family always had bread, potatoes and salad for meals. I really miss the dumplings, rice and delicious dishes from home.

School was a big shock too. They do not require students to wear uniforms, so students can wear almost whatever they like. Some students have strange hairstyles（发型) as well. Some students even have pink or purple hair!

——By Brad Li

My dream was to see some real snow, so during the Christmas holiday, we took our passport (护照) and flew over the Pacific to Calgary, Canada. We took a bus to a ski resort in the Canadian Rockies. As the bus climbed through the mountains, we saw the thick snow on the trees. I was dying to get out and play with it. At last, we reached the resort and quickly jumped out of the bus. This was our first experience with snow. We were like little children — we made snow balls, and threw them at one another. Then we check in at the hotel.

The next day, we put on our ski suits and gloves, took our skis and went outside onto the snow. Our instructor took us to a gentle slope (斜坡), and showed us some basic skills. To be honest, the first lesson was not a great success. I kept on falling over, and I had to hold on to a rope to keep my balance(平衡).

However, the next day, I only fell over a few times, and I managed to do a few rapid runs. I felt pleased with myself, and my instructor told me I was doing much better. Although it was very cold, I spent most of my holiday skiing. I had a wonderful time.

Children with no shoes on do better at school than those with shoes on, a study suggests.

For over 10 years, researchers from universities observed(观察) children in 100 schools from 25 countries. They found that classrooms were quieter when children took off their shoes. It provided a quieter environment where pupils were more willing to focus on study than those with shoes on.

“Children are much more willing to sit on the floor and relax if they have no shoes on," said professor Stephen Heppel, a lead researcher.

“The last place a child would sit to read is an upright chair. And we’ve found that 95% of them really don’t read on a chair at home,” Heppel added. “When they go on holidays, they read lying down.”

Professor Heppel hopes to bring the “shoeless policy” to all U.K. schools. He says relaxing conditions at school make children feel as if they’re at home. He believes all the teachers will be glad to adopt the habit.

范文：

I would like to sell old things for charity

The International Day of Charity is coming. Many people will do something for it. What should I do? Here are my ideas.

I would like to sell old things for charity. Why? Because in some parts of our country, more and more students can’t go to school because of the illness. They don’t have enough money to go to hospital. Every child should keep healthy and they should have the right to receive education. Just as the saying goes, “many hands make light work”. We should try our best to help them.

I would like to collect old books and have a book sale at school after school. With the money, we can buy something useful for the children in the west areas, like toys, school things, clothes and so on. I believe they will be happy when they get these things. I hope they can return to school soon.
