二、勤练高考题型,多练自能生巧 Ⅰ.阅读理解
Young Mr. Smith had an idea for his employer. It was an idea of saving money for the company by increasing prices. At the same time, Smith suggested that the company sell goods with less value. If his employer liked the idea, Smith might be given more pay. Perhaps he might even get a better job in the company. Business went on very slowly. So Mr. Smith’s employer thought a few minutes about the idea. But then she shook her head. “I am sorry, Smith,” his employer said. “It just will not wash.”
Literally, the meaning of these English words should be “It will not get clean”. Yet Smith’s idea did not have anything to do with making something clean. So why did his employer say “It will not wash”?
Most linguists agree that “It will not wash” means it will not work. Eric Partridge wrote that the saying probably developed in Britain in the 1800s. Charlotte Bronté used it in a story published in 1849. She wrote, “That won’t wash, Miss.” Miss Bronté seemed to have meant that the dyes (染料) used to color a piece of clothing were not good. The colors would not stay in the material. In 19th-century England, the expression came to mean an undependable statement. It was used mainly to describe an idea. But sometimes it was used to describe a person.
A critic once said of the poet Robert Browning, “He won’t wash.” The critic did not mean that the poet was not a clean person. He meant that Browning’s poems would not be remembered for a long time. Today, we know that judgment was wrong. Robert Browning is still considered a major poet. But very few people remember the man who said Browning would not wash.

Ⅱ.语法填空

It is believed that if you want to make new friends in a foreign school in a foreign country, be nice to someone and thoughtful of someone, like saying “hi” in the hall, or giving congratulations for a job well __9__ (do). It can make __10__ (wonder).
语篇解读:本文从在美国学习的亚洲学生Jane的感受说起,谈到了亚洲学生难以融入美国学生的圈子的根本原因,不光是语言的问题,更多的是社交技能出现了问题。
1. from be different from是固定搭配,意为“与……不同”。 2. possibly 所填词作状语修饰后面的形容词important,所以用副词形式。
3. where 先行词是countries,定语从句中缺少状语,所以要用关系副词where,指“在他们的国家”。
4. to start It is (not) important to do sth.是固定句型,意为“做某事(不)重要”。It是形式主语,to do是真正的主语,放在后面。
5. limited 所填词放在名词friendships的前面,作定语,所以使用形容词形式,意为“有限的”。本句句意为“在那个时候,她还发现许多东亚学生因为自己美国朋友的数量有限而责备自己。”
6. were surrounded 分析句子结构可知所填词作谓语,前半句的时态是一般过去时,这里要与其保持一致,也用一般过去时,所填词
surround与主语they之间是被动关系,所以使用被动语态,即were surrounded。
7. a 根据句意可知,是指报纸The Chronicle of Higher Education中的一份报告,所以是泛指,填a。
8. making have trouble (in) doing sth.意为“做某事有困难”。 9. done 所填词放在名词job后面作后置定语,与名词job之间存在被动关系,所以用过去分词done,意为“被做得好的工作”。
10. wonders wonder是可数名词,空格前没有a,所以用其复数形式,即wonders。
