A
The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an urgent problem with one of the main computers. He dialed the employee's home phone number and was greeted with a child's whisper, “Hello?”
Feeling it was inconvenient to talk to a youngster, the boss asked, “Is your daddy home?”
“Yes,” whispered the small voice.
1
To the surprise of the boss, the small voice whispered, “No.”
Wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, “Is your mommy there?”
“Yes,” came the answer.
“May I talk with her?”
2
Knowing that it was not likely that a young child would be left home alone, the boss decided he would just leave a message with the person who should be there watching over the child.
“Is there any one there besides you?” the boss asked the child.
3
Wondering what a policeman would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, “May I speak with the policeman?”
“No, he is busy,” whispered the child.
4
“Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the fireman,” came the whispered answer.
Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the earpiece on the phone the boss asked, “What is that noise?”
“A hello-copper,” answered the whispering voice.
5
In a low whispering voice the child answered, “The search team just landed the hello-copper!”
Alarmed, concerned and more than just a little frustrated the boss asked, “The search team?! Why are they there?”
Still whispering, the young voice replied, “They are looking for me!”
A. “Busy doing what?” asked the boss.
B. “May I talk with him?” the man asked.
C. Again the small voice whispered, “No.”
D. “Yes,” whispered the child, “a policeman.”
E. “What is going on there?” asked the boss, now alarmed.
F. “What is the fireman doing at your home?” the boss asked.
G. “The hello-copper is so cool,” whispered the child with excitement.

Most people who travel to another country to work or study for a significant period of time go through an adjustment period to the new culture. The amount of disorientation (迷惘) one feels in the new situation depends on one's own background and experiences.
Culture shock is the sudden loss of the familiar, which leads to a sense of isolation (孤单) and less self-importance. 1 Later, you may feel that the differences between your home country and those countries you are visiting are huge and frustrating.
The effects of culture shock range from mild uneasiness to acute unhappiness. To reduce such effects, you may follow these tips.
·Be prepared. Be aware that it exists and that it will probably affect you in one way or another.
·Know yourself. 2 Your responses to situations and people in the new culture will make more sense if you have a clear idea of what is important to you personally.
·Be calm and accepting. Understand that this is a learning process and that you will benefit from it.
·Be positive. Sometimes with a change of perspective, frustrating circumstances can be humorous and interesting. 3
·Set goals and stay busy. Don't sit around being sad and critical. Be adventurous, make plans and try new things.
·Avoid isolation. Don't keep yourself separate from people of the same cultural background. Don't complain about your experience. 4 They can offer you good advice and comfort.
·5 Hold on to your own personal sense of humor, which will help you deal with possibly frustrating and confusing situations. Often the first sign of recovery from culture shock is the reappearance of one's sense of humor.
A. Keep a sense of humor.
B. Try not to be overly critical.
C. Try to find people who have gone through this experience.
D. Clarify your own values and examine your own assumptions.
E. Sometimes changing to a new culture has an immediate effect.
F. Expect to suffer from culture shock when you return to your home culture.
G. When you first arrive in a new culture, you feel a sense of excitement and expectation.
C
Hot dogs
Hot dogs! Hot dogs! Come get your hot dogs! This variation on a German sausage has become extremely popular in America. It is a popular concession (特许物) sold at America's most beloved sporting events, baseball games. It is beloved by many. 1 Hot dogs are also very popular during summer cookouts, where people get together and they cook food outside on a grill.
Sausage, the main part of a hot dog, has been around since the 9th century B.C. It was first mentioned in The Odyssey, an epic poem (史诗) by the Greek poet, Homer. But, the type of sausage used in a hot dog, is called a frankfurter, and it originated in the 13th century, in Germany. 2
Later on, in about 1871, Charles Feltman, a German butcher, came up with the idea of putting a frankfurter sausage in the middle of a milk roll. He had a food stand in Coney Island (a popular tourist attraction with many amusement parks in Brooklyn, New York) and the hot dogs sold very well. 3
There are many different kinds of hot dogs out there, such as the Chicago Dog (beef hot dog topped with small pieces of onions, tomato slices, and sweet sauce). 4 Sometimes, in my family, when we feel like making a simple dinner, we'll take out the mini grill to make hot dogs. We have a long standing tradition of putting every condiment (佐料) in the refrigerator on top of our hot dogs. Out of all the hot dogs we've made, my favorite is the hot dog with everything on top. 5 It may be messy. Have fun and make your own hot dog! Eat and enjoy!
A. And so, an American tradition was born.
B. Note, do not wear a white shirt while eating.
C. Americans love it because it's easy and delicious.
D. Then, German immigrants brought the sausage to America.
E. The hot dog consists of a grilled or boiled sausage between a sliced roll.
F. A hot dog at a ballgame beats roast beef at a famous and expensive hotel.
G. Even with all these hot dog styles, you can still make your favorite hot dog.
D
Managing your time is a lot like managing your money. 1 With 24 hours a day multiplied by seven days a week, your weekly time budget is 168 hours per week.
Step No. 1: 2
Estimate (估计) the amount of time per week you spend on each activity, such as class time, athletics fitness, socializing with friends and other hobby time and so on.
Step No. 2: Assess your use of time.
a) Add together the total time you will use per week.
b) Now subtract (减去) the total time from 168 hours.
If the number you get is negative, you have used more time than there is in a week. You should cut back in certain areas.
If you have time left over, ask yourself what choices can be
made. 3 Volunteering? Friends? If your time used equals 168, great! Now take a look at any hours you may be spending in some areas that you want to start using in other ways.
Step No. 3: Determine a goal and plan of action for better time use.
What would you most like to do to better manage your time? You should consider using a calendar or planner (备忘记事本). 4
Some tips: Color-code your calendar or planner by the activities listed above, and once you make a schedule, do your best to stick with it.
Step No. 4: 5
You'll want to take a look at this again at the start of each term, if you get a job, or if you notice any changes in your physical or emotional condition.
Besides, it is advisable to make a long-term goal in the first year and work towards it in the very beginning.
A. You are in trouble.
B. This is a good start.
C. Repeat, when necessary.
D. Do you have time for more sleep?
E. Figure out how you use your time each week.
F. Once you spend it, it's gone, so you have to make it all count.
G. It can help you keep track of time, projects, tasks and be more efficient.

C 1-5 CDAGB
D 1-5 FEDGC
解析
A篇（家庭、朋友与周围的人）
本文是记叙文。一个老板给他的员工家里打电话，他的孩子接起了电话。随着交谈的深入，老板发现，原来这个孩子躲起来接电话，而他的父母正满世界找他，甚至惊动了警察、消防员和直升机！
1. B。根据上文内容可知，孩子的爸爸在家，所以老板想让他接电话。下一句中的回答No提示该空是一个一般疑问句。
2. C。根据下文老板问孩子还有谁在他身边可知，孩子再次拒绝了老板让他妈妈接电话的请求。
3. D。根据下文中老板让警察接电话可知，孩子告诉老板警察在他身边。
4. A。上一段孩子说警察在忙，下一段孩子告诉老板警察在跟爸爸、妈妈和消防员谈话。由此可以推断，老板应该是问警察“在忙什么”。
5. E。又是警察，又是消防员，甚至还有直升机，老板自然很“担忧”，想知道“发生了什么事情”。下段中孩子的话语也是对“发生了什么”的回答。
B篇（热点话题）
本文是说明文。文章简单介绍了什么是文化冲击并给出了应对文化冲击的建议。
1. G。根据本空后一句中的Later, differences, huge, frustrating等词可知，“刚开始接触一种新的文化时，你会感到激动并有所期待”，但是随后你会发现，你所访问的国家和自己的祖国之间的差异是那么巨大，令人沮丧。
2. D。本段建议大家了解自己，所以就要“弄清楚自己的价值观，检查自己（之前对新文化）的设想”。
3. B。本段建议大家积极乐观，所以就不要对什么事情都“过于吹毛求疵”。
4. C。本段建议大家不要孤立自己，因此不妨“试着寻找那些有过这种（文化冲击）经历的人”，他们可以给你一些好的建议和安慰。
5. A。根据本段内容可知，这段建议大家“保持幽默感”。本段中重复出现的sense of humor是解题的关键。
C篇（饮食）
本文是说明文。文章介绍了热狗的起源和种类。
1. C。本段主要介绍了热狗在美国的受欢迎程度。本空前一句说很多美国人都喜欢热狗，这是“因为热狗做起来简单，吃起来美味”。
2. D。本段主要介绍了热狗的主要成分香肠的起源。根据本空前一句可知，热狗中的香肠起源于13世纪的德国。根据接下来的一段介绍一个德国人在美国纽约市布鲁克林区的科尼岛将香肠夹到面包中售卖可知，“然后，德国移民把这种香肠带到了美国”，为热狗在美国的风靡奠定了基础。
3. A。根据本段内容可知，一个德国人把香肠卷到了面包里卖，销量非常好。“就这样，一种具有美国传统特色的食品诞生了”。
4. G。本空前说热狗种类很多，并举例说明，本空后作者介绍了自己在家做的热狗。本空前后是两个主题，所以本空应该是起承上启下作用的句子，从热狗的种类多过渡到自己在家做热狗。G项完全符合此处语境。
5. B。本空前作者说他最喜欢把所有的佐料都抹在热狗上面，本空后作者说这种热狗会把衣服弄脏，那么本空应该是作者提醒大家“不要在吃热狗的时候穿白衬衫”。
D篇（计划与愿望）
本文是说明文。文章给出了如何管理时间的具体步骤。
1. F。本空前说管理时间就像管理钱，为什么呢？因为“一旦你把时间用了，它就再也回不来了，所以你要让你的时间花得有价值”。
2. E。根据本空接下来的内容可知，第一步是要估计每周每项活动所需的时间，即：“弄清楚你每周是如何使用时间的”。
3. D。第二步是要确定对时间的使用。根据本空前的what choices can be made可知，D项符合此处语境，同时也与本空后的Volunteering和Friends构成并列。
4. G。第三步是确定一个目标和行动方案来更好地使用时间。作者建议大家买个日历或者备忘记事本，因为它“可以帮助你记录时间的使用情况、计划的执行情况和任务的完成情况，使你更加有效率”。
5. C。根据本空接下来的You'll want to take a look at this again可知，这一步是建议大家“在有必要的情况下，重复以上步骤”。C项中的Repeat和下文中的again 是解题的关键。

So when Mardy McGarry wanted to build a playground for kids with special needs, she knew it wouldn't take long to create interest in the project. But she never expected that a third of the town people would join in it. __1__. “A lot of learning comes through play，”says McGarry, a special education teacher for 28 years. She'd seen the wood chips and sand of traditional playgrounds stop wheelchairs dead in their tracks. When a piece of land became available, the city council agreed to choose a part for a playground. __2__ She asked many kids for their wish list. She also asked experts for help. And she brought on board her friend Sue Mayer, whose eight-year-old son, Sam, has a serious disease. Her Kiwanis Club chapter came through with $7,000, and that's when the grassroots movement really got started. One woman gave $25,000 and had her company donate the same amount. __3__ There were silent auctions (拍卖) and T-shirt sales. The local Pieper Family Foundation offered to donate half of the remaining $170,000 balance if McGarry could raise the rest. The $450,000 covered materials, but the actual construction would cost an additional $900,000. Not a choice. But the community could build it. On September 16, 2008, the first day of construction, they came. Two women heard about the project on the radio on the way to work and took the day off to help. __4__ Ten-year-olds sanded surfaces. Today, Possibility Playground is one of the most popular destinations in Ozaukee County, There's a giant pirate ship, a sandbox, monkey bars, swings and so on. __5__ It's exactly what McGarry wanted. People used to ask why she wanted to build a playground just for children with disabilities. “They didn't get it. It's only when you build a playground for children with disabilities that you build one for all children.” she said. A．Soon smaller businesses were helping.

We first met at the All-City Chorus. 1 We stood side by side in the chorus, and he always made me look good, even if I missed a note. Bud went to an all-white high school in a beautiful, all-white neighborhood. There were very few big buildings in his community. As a matter of fact, you would have to walk four or five blocks to get to the nearest shopping center. 2 In his basement, he had a complete mini-gym. In his bedroom, he had a nice desk, complete with reference books and his own little TV on which he could play his video games. 3 My family lived in a nice apartment in an all-black housing project. Our project housed many families, so we were used to living in small crowded houses. 4 There were all kinds of stores nearby. For beauty, we had basketball courts and the rose garden in front of the project building. We were never jealous or looked down on one another, either. We both felt we had lost something because we lived in worlds set apart from others. Bud's only contact (接触) with blacks of his age was in the All-City Chorus. 5 And it was not as interesting as it would have been if he had grown up with people of different groups and races living together. I felt the same way. Both races could learn a great deal from one another, and I knew this because Bud and I surely did learn from each other. A. Bud's house was another point of interest. B. Because of this, he felt his life was sheltered. C. We never had to walk far to the nearest store. D. My home and neighborhood were totally different. E.

2017年高考英语阅读专练（七选五） 1. Brain Transplants Research on the human brain has been attracting more and more scientists in recent years. 1 If we compare a human brain to a hard disc, what the scientists are doing is to make better use of the hard disc. The idea that a human brain could be transplanted may come from Frankenstein. In 1999, an experiment turned a bear into a dolphin. 2 They were made of the memory area in the dolphin’s brain containing information about swimming. They had a series of useful information, which was saved into a button-sized chip (芯片). Later the information was transplanted into the action memory area in the bear’s brain. 3 It proved to be a highly successful experiment and a bear was turned into a dolphin. Recently, another memory transplant was performed at the Motor Nerve Research Institute of the University of California. The experiment had an entire transplant of the memory area. 4 The transplant was performed from a dog named Genius to a dog named Idiot. Genius could follow up to 100 gestures and orders made by its master. It was a real genius in memorizing. However, Idiot had no contact with people since its birth. It became an animal with nothing in its brain, without any memory. 5 When the two dogs woke up, Idiot had grasped all the abilities Genius possessed; it was good at memorizing and sensible. It could follow every gesture and any command given by its master. But Genius gave no response to its master, and did not recognize him at all. A. The experiment was a complete success. B. It included actions, moods, logic, words, images, etc. C. Then it was released by means of electric power. D. Different images have different meanings in the memory area. E. Using the most advanced technology, detailed images were produced. F. Discoveries show that messages are carried by the central nervous system in the brain. G. One of the latest topics is how to change the human brain or combine it with the computer. 2. W. Lloyd Jerome’s Dental Surgery If you walk into W.Lloyd Jerome’s dental surgery in Glasgow,
