A Minor Microsurgery Last year,Sean Martinovich,from Whitianga,had life-saving surgery when a golf-sized tumor was removed from his brain stem.But the operation left half his face paralysed.He talked with a slur,sometimes dribbled（流 口水）out of the side of his mouth and could not close his eye properly.Although he could run around with the other boys in the playground,when they laughed he could not laugh with them.Without a smile,he could suffer psychologically and emotionally. Last week,6-year-old Sean had seven hours of microsurgery that should give him back his smile.Doctor Bartlett removed a nerve from the back of one of Sean's legs and transplanted it into his face.On the normal side of his face the nerve divides into lots of little branches."We'll cut those nerve branches and then we'll take a nerve graft from one leg and tunnel it across his face from one side to the other and join that on to the nerve that' s been cut on the good side of his face."Doctor Bartlett said before the operation."If this was not fixed he conld face physical and emotional problems as he got older,"Doctor Bartlett said."Socially people can become quite withdrawn because of the face paralysis.It's easy for people,especially children,to become rather emotionless because they prefer the flatness of no movement on either side to the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side and having this twisted face." Sean is not smiling yet.Over the next six months the nerves will grow across the face to the damaged side and after that movement will hopefully come back.Sean's parents,Steve and Wendy Martinovich,said they had been through a year of hell.But their son was a determined boy who just got on with it,said Mrs Martinovich.They are amazed at the technology that they hope will restore the cheeky smile they love so much.For Doctor Bartlett the microsurgery is almost routine.For Sean's parents,it is a miracle.

第4题：
In March 2004，Joe Ryan got a notice from a billing agency for a hospital near Denver，Colorado. The hospital wanted payment for surgery totaling $41,188. Ryan had never set foot in that hospital. Obviously there was some mistake. “I thought it was a joke，”says Ryan.
But when he called the billing agency，nobody laughed. Someone，who's also named Joe Ryan，using Ryan's Social Security number，had indeed been admitted for surgery. He figured clearing this up would take a just few phone calls.
Two years later，Ryan continues to suffer from the damage to his credit rating and still doesn't know if his medical record has been cleared of wrong information.
Joe Ryan was the victim of a little-known but frightening type of consumer cheating that is on the rise：medical identity theft，which involves using your name to get drugs，expensive medical treatment and even cheating insurance payments.
As Ryan discovered，money isn't the half of it. When someone steals your name to receive health care，his medical history becomes part of your record-and setting the record straight can be extremely difficult. That's because，in part，the information is handed out among dozens of caregivers，from doctors to medicine stores to insurance companies and labs.
“I wanted to help straighten this out，”says Ryan，“so I went to the hospital，and they had a three-inch-thick record for me，but they wouldn't let me see it. I showed them my ID，and they said that's not Joe Ryan's signature. Well，of course not!They had this other guy's signature. ”
Ryan had fallen into a victim's Catch-22：If your record doesn't appear to be yours，you may not have the right to read it，much less change it.
Ryan's next step was a visit to the police department. But the police said that there was not much they could do，that the local law enforcement has little experience with medical ID theft，and cases like this can end up being considered a civil matter.
The billing agency sent Joe Ryan a notice to______.
A．play a joke on him for medical treatment
B．inform. him of the payment for his surgery
C．clear up the wrong information in his medical record
D．correct the mistakes about payment for his surgery
正确答案：B
解析：细节题。题干大意：收费处给Joe Ryan寄去一张账单是为了……。根据文章第一段第二句“The hospital wanted payment for surgery…”可知是通知他为他的外科手术付款。因此B项是正确选项。 -
第5题：
A young man was getting ready to graduate from college, for many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and 21 his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted．

A:4 years old.
B:5 years old.
C:6 years old.
D:7 years old.答案：B解析：第一段第一句表明，Sean是在去年做的手术；第二段第一句表明，上周Sean的年龄为6岁。所以去年手术时、Sean的年龄应为5岁。
第一段第三句表明，Sean谈吐不清，有时会流口水，还不能正常地闭眼睛；第一段最后一句说明他不能微笑。综合这些可推知，" paralysed"、的意思为“瘫痪的”，也就是失去了感觉和对肌肉的控制。
根据第二段第四句引用的Bartlett医生的话语可知，移植到Sean脸上的神经来自于他的腿上。
由第二段最后两句引用Bartlett医生的话语可知，由于面部瘫痪，人们会变得很内向。特别是孩子，宁愿与面无表情的人接触，也会远离只有半边脸微笑的不对称表情。由此推测，Sean可能为了避免让别人发现他那不对称的微笑而采取躲避的方法，这会引起一系列生理问题和心理问题。
第三段倒数第二句说明，对于Bartlett医生来说，微创手术是“routine"（日常工作），可见微创手术对Bartlett医生来说是一件很容易的事。 -

材料题
B
In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe，fresh from his courses in play writing at Harvard joined the eight or ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University．I had never before seen a man so tall as he，and so ugly．I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him feel at home．
His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness．They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back their tears，of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name．
Indeed，his students made so much of his power of observation that I decided to make a little test and see for myself．My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering for nine o‘clock classes．
Upon arriving at the university that day，I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teachers as an office．He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall，and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around．
He stepped in，remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out．“Tell me what you see．”I said as I took his place in the room，leaving him in the hall with his back to the door．Without the least hesitation and without a single error，he gave the number of seats in the room，pointed out those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls，named the colors each student was wearing，pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard，spoke of the chalk marks which the cleaner had failed to wash from the floor，and pictured in detail the view of Washington Square from the window．
As I rejoined Wolfe，I was speechless with surprise．He，on the contrary，was wholly calm as he said，“The worst thing about it is that I‘ll remember it all．”
What can be inferred from the passageA.The author was happy to see the test resul
B.What the students said was hardly tru
C.Wolfe would remember forever what the author had don
D.Wolfe felt joyful after he had been teste答案：C解析： -

A:rarely
B:often
C:never
D:frequently答案：A解析：本题为阅读理解题，根据下文内容的转折，这里应该是“很少用药”。
本题语法题，只有expensive的最高级前用the most。
本题是词组辫析。start“开始”。swing“摇摆”。show“展示”。spread“传播，散布”。
本题为阅读理解题，根据下文内容，这里应是“委员会成员嫉妒他的成功”。
本题为阅读理解题，与上半句的“朋友”相对，这里是“对手、敌人”。

本题为语法词汇题。affection名词，“喜爱”;affect动词，“影响”;effect名词，“影响”;effective形容词，“有效的”。
prove“证明”; correct“改正”; create“创造”; prepare“准备”。
根据上下文这里应是“疼痛”的意思。pain“疼”; trouble"麻烦”; destruction “破坏”; damage“损伤”。
awful“极糟糕的”; interesting“有趣的”; successful“成功的”; dangerous“危险的”。
根据上下文，这里是“一件震惊的事”，因此是shock。
根据下文，妻子应该感到“焦虑”。
根据上文，安德鲁做实验，因此应该是“实验室”。
根据上下文背景，此处的闯入者应是“拒绝听”。
本题为理解题。上句说到安德鲁生气地接电话，在听到是欧文后应该是语气有所转变。 -

Mau Piailug,Ocean Navigator
Mau sailed from Hawaii to Tahiti using traditional methods.
In early 1976,Mau Piailug,a fisherman,led an expedition in which he sailed a tradi-tional Polynesian boat across 2,500 miles of ocean from Hawaii to Tahiti.The Polynesian Voyaging Society had organised the expedition.Its purpose was to find out if seafarers（海员） in the distant past could have found their way from one island to the other without naviga-tional instruments,or whether the islands had been populated by accident.At the time,Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.
He had never before sailed to Tahiti,which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands,so he was confident he could find his way.The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.
His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.He showed him pools of water on the beach to teach him how the behaviour of the waves and wind changed in different place.Later,Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.Each stone was laid out in the sand to represent a star.
The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.Mau himself became a keen teacher,passing on his traditional secrets to people of other cultures so that his knowledge would not be lost.He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.Mau learnt navigation skills from his grandfather.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：题干意为“玛乌航行的时候，他有独特的航行技术。”关键词是unique navi-gational skills。依据此关键词组，可在文中第一段最后一句找到相关叙述：“At the time, Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.”（在那时，玛乌是在世的人中唯一一个仅仅通过观察星星、风和海洋来远航的人。）由此可知，当时来说，玛乌的航行技术的确是独特的，故此题说法为“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌很熟悉塔希提岛周围的海洋。”关键词是Tahiti。依据此关键词，可在文中第二段前两句找到相关叙述：“He had never before sailed to Tahiti, which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands, so he was confident he could find his way.”（他从来没有航行到过塔希提岛，从塔希提岛到南方是一段很长的路程。然而他知道岛周围的风和海洋是怎么活动的，所以他自信可以找到路。）由此可知，虽然玛乌没有去过这个岛，但是他很熟悉海洋，故此题说法是“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌买不起罗盘和图表。”关键词是compass和charts。依据关键词，可在文中第二段最后一句找到相关叙述：“The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.”（这次航行要花费他和船员们一个月的时间，而且他们航行的时候没有罗盘和图表。）由此可知，他们航行确实用不到罗盘和图表，但是文中并没提到玛乌买不起这些工具，故此说法为“未提及”的。
题干意为“玛乌从祖父那里学到了航海技术。”关键词是grandfather。依据此关健词，可在文中第三段第一句找到相关叙述：“His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.”（当他还很小的时候，他的祖父就开始教他航海。）故此题说法为“正确”的。
题干意为“玛乌用石头记忆天空中星星的位置。”关键词是stones和stars。 依据关键词，可在文中第三段倒数第二句找到相关叙述：“Later, Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.”（之后，玛乌用一圈石头来记忆星星的位置。）故此题说法是“正确”的。
题干意为“夏威夷最早的居民能读写。”关键词是first inhabitants of Ha-waii。依据关键词可在文中最后一段第一句找到相关叙述：“The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.”（此次航行证明，夏威夷最早的居民是乘小船来到这里的，并通过观察海洋和星空来航行。）文中的 reading是观察的意思，除此之外并没有提到这些最早的居民会不会读写，故此说法是“未提及”的。
题干意为“玛乌希望自己的学生们能立刻记住星星的位置。”关键词是 students。依据此关键词，可在文中最后一句找到相关叙述：“He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.”（他向学生们解释星星的位置， 但他允许学生把知识点写下来，因为他知道他们不可能像他一样记住所有东西。）故此题说法为“错误”的。 -
第18题：
When he got out of the manager's office,from his facial expression we knew that his proposal must have been turned down.A:refused
B:accepted

A Minor Microsurgery Last year,Sean Martinovich,from Whitianga,had life-saving surgery when a golf-sized tumor was removed from his brain stem.But the operation left half his face paralysed.He talked with a slur,sometimes dribbled（流 口水）out of the side of his mouth and could not close his eye properly.Although he could run around with the other boys in the playground,when they laughed he could not laugh with them.Without a smile,he could suffer psychologically and emotionally. Last week,6-year-old Sean had seven hours of microsurgery that should give him back his smile.Doctor Bartlett removed a nerve from the back of one of Sean's legs and transplanted it into his face.On the normal side of his face the nerve divides into lots of little branches."We'll cut those nerve branches and then we'll take a nerve graft from one leg and tunnel it across his face from one side to the other and join that on to the nerve that' s been cut on the good side of his face."Doctor Bartlett said before the operation."If this was not fixed he conld face physical and emotional problems as he got older,"Doctor Bartlett said."Socially people can become quite withdrawn because of the face paralysis.It's easy for people,especially children,to become rather emotionless because they prefer the flatness of no movement on either side to the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side and having this twisted face." Sean is not smiling yet.Over the next six months the nerves will grow across the face to the damaged side and after that movement will hopefully come back.Sean's parents,Steve and Wendy Martinovich,said they had been through a year of hell.But their son was a determined boy who just got on with it,said Mrs Martinovich.They are amazed at the technology that they hope will restore the cheeky smile they love so much.For Doctor Bartlett the microsurgery is almost routine.For Sean's parents,it is a miracle.The word"paralysed"in Paragraph 1 most probably means______.
A:slur dribbled
B:lost of feeling in or control of body muscles
C:unable to open one's mouth
D:psychologically and emotionally disabled答案：B解析：第一段第一句表明，Sean是在去年做的手术；第二段第一句表明，上周Sean的年龄为6岁。所以去年手术时、Sean的年龄应为5岁。
第一段第三句表明，Sean谈吐不清，有时会流口水，还不能正常地闭眼睛；第一段最后一句说明他不能微笑。综合这些可推知，" paralysed"、的意思为“瘫痪的”，也就是失去了感觉和对肌肉的控制。
根据第二段第四句引用的Bartlett医生的话语可知，移植到Sean脸上的神经来自于他的腿上。
由第二段最后两句引用Bartlett医生的话语可知，由于面部瘫痪，人们会变得很内向。特别是孩子，宁愿与面无表情的人接触，也会远离只有半边脸微笑的不对称表情。由此推测，Sean可能为了避免让别人发现他那不对称的微笑而采取躲避的方法，这会引起一系列生理问题和心理问题。
第三段倒数第二句说明，对于Bartlett医生来说，微创手术是“routine"（日常工作），可见微创手术对Bartlett医生来说是一件很容易的事。 -

A Minor Microsurgery Last year,Sean Martinovich,from Whitianga,had life-saving surgery when a golf-sized tumor was removed from his brain stem.But the operation left half his face paralysed.He talked with a slur,sometimes dribbled（流 口水）out of the side of his mouth and could not close his eye properly.Although he could run around with the other boys in the playground,when they laughed he could not laugh with them.Without a smile,he could suffer psychologically and emotionally. Last week,6-year-old Sean had seven hours of microsurgery that should give him back his smile.Doctor Bartlett removed a nerve from the back of one of Sean's legs and transplanted it into his face.On the normal side of his face the nerve divides into lots of little branches."We'll cut those nerve branches and then we'll take a nerve graft from one leg and tunnel it across his face from one side to the other and join that on to the nerve that' s been cut on the good side of his face."Doctor Bartlett said before the operation."If this was not fixed he conld face physical and emotional problems as he got older,"Doctor Bartlett said."Socially people can become quite withdrawn because of the face paralysis.It's easy for people,especially children,to become rather emotionless because they prefer the flatness of no movement on either side to the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side and having this twisted face." Sean is not smiling yet.Over the next six months the nerves will grow across the face to the damaged side and after that movement will hopefully come back.Sean's parents,Steve and Wendy Martinovich,said they had been through a year of hell.But their son was a determined boy who just got on with it,said Mrs Martinovich.They are amazed at the technology that they hope will restore the cheeky smile they love so much.For Doctor Bartlett the microsurgery is almost routine.For Sean's parents,it is a miracle.Why?
A:Because he may not want others to see the weirdness of an asymmetry of smiling on one side,sohe will choose to withdraw.
B:Because other children will be scared to see his face.
C:Because he will be through time of hell.
D:Because other children will refuse to talk or play with him.答案：A解析：第一段第一句表明，Sean是在去年做的手术；第二段第一句表明，上周Sean的年龄为6岁。所以去年手术时、Sean的年龄应为5岁。
第一段第三句表明，Sean谈吐不清，有时会流口水，还不能正常地闭眼睛；第一段最后一句说明他不能微笑。综合这些可推知，" paralysed"、的意思为“瘫痪的”，也就是失去了感觉和对肌肉的控制。
根据第二段第四句引用的Bartlett医生的话语可知，移植到Sean脸上的神经来自于他的腿上。
由第二段最后两句引用Bartlett医生的话语可知，由于面部瘫痪，人们会变得很内向。特别是孩子，宁愿与面无表情的人接触，也会远离只有半边脸微笑的不对称表情。由此推测，Sean可能为了避免让别人发现他那不对称的微笑而采取躲避的方法，这会引起一系列生理问题和心理问题。
第三段倒数第二句说明，对于Bartlett医生来说，微创手术是“routine"（日常工作），可见微创手术对Bartlett医生来说是一件很容易的事。 -

材料题
B
In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe，fresh from his courses in play writing at Harvard joined the eight or ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University．I had never before seen a man so tall as he，and so ugly．I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him feel at home．
His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness．They spoke of his ability to explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back their tears，of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name．
Indeed，his students made so much of his power of observation that I decided to make a little test and see for myself．My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering for nine o‘clock classes．
Upon arriving at the university that day，I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the English composition teachers as an office．He did not say anything when I asked him to come with me out into the hall，and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him to enter alone and look around．
He stepped in，remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out．“Tell me what you see．”I said as I took his place in the room，leaving him in the hall with his back to the door．Without the least hesitation and without a single error，he gave the number of seats in the room，pointed out those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls，named the colors each student was wearing，pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard，spoke of the chalk marks which the cleaner had failed to wash from the floor，and pictured in detail the view of Washington Square from the window．
As I rejoined Wolfe，I was speechless with surprise．He，on the contrary，was wholly calm as he said，“The worst thing about it is that I‘ll remember it all．”
What do we learn about Wolfe from the passageA.He tried hard to remember what was in the classroo
B.He stayed in the classroom for a short tim
C.He stayed drew a picture of Washington Squar
D.He followed the author into the classroo答案：B解析： -
