　In grade eight I took physics. In one test I get only 36 percent of the answer correct. I failed the next one, either. I started to think that maybe I was not good at it. However, I was not lucky enough to have a teacher which didn’t take my bad grades as a judgment of my abilities, but simply like an indication how I should study harder. He pulled me aside and told me that he knew I could do better. He permitted to retake the test, and I was pulled my grade to an A. This is what I discovered: just because a subject is difficulty to learn, it doesn’t mean you are not good at it.

　 参考答案：

　1.get----got 2. answer---- answers 3. either----too 4. not lucky---lucky 5. which----who/that

　6. like----as 7. how----that 8. permitted to----permitted ∧me to 9. was pulled----pulled

　10. difficulty---- difficult 略

　A year ago, I paid no attention to English idioms, though my teacher emphasized (强调) the importance again and again. But soon, the importance of English idioms was shown in an amusing experience

　One day, I happened to meet an Englishman on the road, and soon we began to talk. As I was talking about how I was studying English, the foreigner seemed to be surprised. Gently shaking his head, shrugging his shoulders, he said, “You don’t say!” “You don’t say!” I was puzzled. I thought, perhaps this is not a proper topic. “Well, I’d better change the topic. “ So I said to him, “Well, shall we talk about the Great Wall? By the way, have you ever been there?” “Certainly, everyone back home will laugh at me if I leave China without seeing it. It was wonderful.”

　He was deep in thought when I began to talk like a tourist guide. “The Great Wall is one of the wonders in the world. We are very proud of it.” Soon I was stopped again by his words: “You don’t say!” I couldn’t help asking, “Why do you ask me not to talk about it?”

　“Well, I didn’t ask you to do so,” he answered, greatly surprised. I said, “Didn’t you say ‘you don’t say’?” Hearing this, the Englishman laughed to tears. He began to explain, ‘You don’t say.’ actually means ‘really’! It is an expression of surprise. Perhaps you don’t pay attention to English idioms.” Only then did I know how foolish I had been. Since then I have been more careful with idiomatic expressions. Remember: what the English teachers said is always right to us students. 56. At first, on hearing “You don’t say”, I thought the foreigner meant

　. A. I had talked too much

　 B. I had to stop talking

　C. He was not interested in the topic D. He was only interested in the Great Wall 57. The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means

　.

　A. interesting

　 B. important

　C. terrible

　D. unlucky 58. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

　A. The Englishman wanted me to act as his guide.

　B. The Englishman left China without seeing the Great Wall.

　C. The Englishman wanted to see the Great Wall after I talked about it.

　D. The Englishman visited the Great Wall and thought it worth visiting.

　59. After the Englishman explained the idiom,

　. A. I felt very foolish

　B. the Englishman became a real fool C. I became more careful in everything D. I thought the Englishman had made me a fool

　参 考答案：

　56—59 CADA 略 18. Working up a credit score for Walter Cavanagh has got to be a mathematical nightmare — the man has nearly 1,500 valid credit cards to his name and holds the Guinness Record for the most credit cards. Mr. Plastic Fantastic — a title given to him by Guinness World Records — is also the proud owner of the world’s longest wallet, which can hold about 800 cards. But he uses it only to carry a few cards, while the rest are safely kept in bank safedeposit boxes. Cavanagh started collecting credit cards in the late 1960s. “One of my best friends and I made a silly bet: the guy who could collect the most credit cards by the end of the year would win dinner,” he said. “I got 143 cards by the end of the year, and my friend gathered 138.” After winning that bet, Cavanagh decided to simply keep going with his unusual collection. He got credit cards from gas stations, airlines, bars, and even ice cream stores. If there’s one card missing from Cavanagh’s collection, it’s that from the Newberry Company. They repulsed his application for a card in the early 1970s, even though he’d collected over 100 by then. They said he had too much credit. Therefore, so far he hasn’t had a Newberry card in his collection. Cavanagh hasn’t stopped applying for new cards — he’s held the Guinness Record since 1971 and has no intention of letting go of it. He copies whole pages from a U.S. directory of businesses and keeps sending applications. If he receives a rejection, he writes back to the company explaining his goal and ambition. But he doesn’t count useless cards in his total collection. Thanks to all the cards to his name, Cavanagh has access to about ＄1.7 million at any moment. Despite this privilege, he has managed to maintain an excellent credit score. The 72-year-old retired financial planner and credit expert has only one piece of advice to share: “Never use a card to buy anything you can’t pay off in a couple of months. If you don’t have the discipline, you shouldn’t have the cards.”

　4. Cavanagh began to collect credit cards when he ________. A. owned a very long wallet B. made a bet with his friend C. wanted to create a Guinness Record D. was treated to dinner by his friend 5. What does the underlined word “repulsed” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Rejected.

　B. Recalled. C. Repeated.

　D. Recognized. 6. What do the underlined words “the discipline” in the last paragraph probably refer to? A. Having many cards to your own name. B. Buying things by card and paying off in time. C. Managing to own more privileges for your card. D. Using a card to buy things as many times as possible. 7. What do we know about Cavanagh’s cards? A. Some of them are useless. B. They are safely kept in his long wallet. C. They have brought him fame and privilege. D. Fewer new cards are added to his collections. 参考答案：

　4. B

　5. A

　6. B

　7. C 本文是一篇说明文。Walter Cavanagh 拥有近 1500 张有效的信用卡，并拥有最多的信用卡记录，他建议我们要有控制自己的能力，不要超出自己的能力消费。本文介绍了他收集信用卡的经历。

　【4 题详解】

　推理判断题。根据第三段中 Cavanagh started collecting credit cards in the late 1960s. “One of my best friends and I made a silly bet（打赌）; the guy who could collect the most credit cards by the end of the year would win dinner,”可知，Cavanagh 在和朋友打赌之后开始收集信用卡。故选 B。

　【5 题详解】

　词义猜测题。根据第三段开头部分 If there’s one card missing from Cavanagh’s collection, it’s that from the Newberry Group. They repulsed his application for a card in the early 1970s 以及

　后文 Therefore, so far he hasn’t had a Newberry card in his collection.可知，他的申请被Newberry Group 拒绝，所以他没有 Newberry 的信用卡，repulsed 意为“拒绝”，故选 A。

　【6 题详解】

　推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Never use a card to buy anything you can’t pay off in a couple of months. If you don’t have the discipline, you shouldn’t have the cards.”可知，在最后一段Cavanagh 建议我们要有控制自己的能力。“the discipline”的原则就是：用信用卡买东西，就要及时还款。故选 B。

　【7 题详解】

　推理判断题。根据第一段 Mr. Plastic Fantastic — a title given to him by Guinness World Records — is also the proud owner of the world’s longest wallet 一句可知，收藏信用卡为Walter Cavanagh 带来了荣誉，以及第五段 Despite this privilege, he has managed to maintain an excellent credit score.一句可知，收藏信用卡还为其带来了特权。故选 C。
