       American teens are setting an example for their parents through their volunteer work，according to the Harris Interactive poll conducted in the United States between Jan.29 and Feb.2 among 2,003 adults.The random national telephone survey released this week by the Federal Way­based charity World Vision found that more teens volunteer to support a charitable (慈善的) cause—56 percent—than have a part­time job—39 percent.

Parents and guardians said 82 percent of the teens in their lives do something to support charitable causes，including volunteering，recruiting others to a cause，wearing a T­shirt or donating money.Forty­six percent of the adults surveyed said they volunteered their time and they also inspired their children to volunteer.

Sara Johnson，a teacher who advises students at a private school in a Chicago suburb，says she’s seen a rise of teen involvement i n social causes since President Barack Obama was elected in November.

The Harris Interactive survey found a quarter of teens have become more involved in charitable causes or organizations as a result of the economic downturn，but the economy has also led to cuts i n allowances，and has teens work more hours at a paying job.

Alynn Woodson，director of volunteer engagement at Habitat for Humanity International，said she has noticed a new enthusiasm among teen volunteers for th e organization.

Habitat for Humanity International celebrates the 20th anniversary of its alternative spring break program this year and is expecting more than 12,000 young people to help build homes for low­income people around the nation.

(2009年廈門檢測，D)

Just as the stock (股票) market rises and falls in response to what people are willing to put their money behind，we have inside ourselves an inner economy that rises and falls in response to our beliefsabout what is possi ble.Sometimes the degree to which we are willing to chall en ge our belief systems determines the success of our inner economy.For example，imagine that your family of origin had a belief that musical talent was not something they possessed.As a member of that group，you would likely hold that same belief about yourself.As a result，even if you had a great desire to create music，you might be hesitant to really get behind yourself，fearing that your investment (投資) would not pay off.Even if you had the courage to follow your passion，your inner belief that you are not born talented would probably be a major obstacle to investing your energy in y our dream.

On the other hand，if you found a way to release that negative belief，a great flood of energy would pour forth，greatly increasing the likelihood of your success.How much energy we are willing to invest in the various ideas，dreams，and visions we carry within is like the money people are，or are not，willing to invest in the various products available for trade on the stock market.And in both cases，belief plays a key role in determining how willing we are to get behind something.One way to open up the possibility for greater success in our inner economies is to understand that belief is not the reliable guide we sometimes think.There are other more reliable things of success that we can put our faith in，such as passion，feeling，and sense.Some of the most successful investors in the stock market are the ones that go against the grain，trusting their sense over the common opinion held by common people about what will work.

In the same way，we can learn to trust our heart’s desires and our sense to guide us，questioning any belief s that stand in the way of our ability to fully invest in ourselves.As we take out energy from limiting ideas about what is possible，we free up the resources that have the power to make our inner economy prosper.

5．We can safely conclude from the first paragraph that________.

A．our belief is not reliable

B．belief is not so important in our success

C．belief is an obstacle to our success

D．our belief determines our success in some way

6．According to the passage，if a family of origin has passion for literature，the members of the family will probably________.

A．write poems

B．hate literature

C．enter the field of literature

D．teach literature

7．We can put our faith in the following things of success except________.

A．passion  B．feeling

C．sense  D．stock market

8．The purpose of the author is________.

A．to teach us a lesson

B．to give us some useful suggestions

C．to encourage us to invest in the stock market

D．to tell us common people have negative beliefs

Ⅰ.單項填空

1．A　at ease意為“舒適，快活，自由自在”，表示“工作做完后，你會覺得好輕松”。out of work失業(yè)；in peace安靜，寧靜；as usual通常，平常地。

2．A　approach原指接近某人或某物，也可指對待或處理的方式或方法，常與介詞to連用。a new approach to language teaching表示語言教學(xué)的新方法。means，method和way都表示“方法”，常與介詞of連用。

3．C　close to靠近；closely緊密地、密切地，這里指“精力集中”。

4．D　句意為：他臉上的表情告訴我他對我的答復(fù)不滿意。expression表情；impression印象；sight情景，視力；appearance表面，外表；故A、B、C不符合句意。

5．C　常用sb./sth.be likely to do或it’s likely＋從句，表示“可能”；certain表示“確定的”；probable后常跟that從句表示“很有可能”；be sure to do sth.指“一定，務(wù)必去做某事”。

6．B　in a word意為“總之；一句話；總而言之”；in general意為“大體上；一般地”；in total意為“總共”；in time意為“及時”。通過句意可以看出，“大多數(shù)青少年喜歡聽搖滾樂”是一種一般的、普遍的情況，所以選B。

7．C　本句的謂語動詞是entered...and sat，smiling and talking是現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語，表示伴隨動作。

8．A　句意為：一定要盡快告訴我你想到的解決這個問題的辦法。句中you think of是定語從句，to solve the problem是不定式短語作定語修飾the ways。本題易被錯誤地分析為think of doing sth.而誤選B。

9．A　根據(jù)句意“兇手拿起他的槍然后朝那個人開了一槍”，reach for伸手夠……，reach out伸出手來，reach與其他選項不能搭配。

10．B　對不起，我開始沒有認(rèn)出你來。recognize認(rèn)出。

11．B　prevent常用prevent sb.(from)doing sth.結(jié)構(gòu)，表示“防止；預(yù)防”；avoid意為“避免”，后面跟名詞或動詞­ing形式作賓語；protect意為“保護(hù)”；allow意為“允許”。根據(jù)句意，“雖然Tyron很生氣，但是他頭腦很冷靜”，就不會做不恰當(dāng)?shù)氖虑?，也不?/SPAN>“沖進(jìn)老板的辦公室”，所以用avoid最合適。

12．C　though作副詞，意為“然而”，用做強(qiáng)調(diào)。

13．D　watch out for注意……。watch out后不能接賓語。

14．D　根據(jù)后半句說，“工廠確信能滿足人們的需要”，那么前提應(yīng)該是“生產(chǎn)各種各樣的鋼琴”已經(jīng)成為事實，所以用現(xiàn)在完成時，動詞­ing形式作狀語。

15．A　句意為：吸煙是癌癥最主要的原因之一，每年有數(shù)百萬人喪生。

Ⅱ.閱讀理解

1．A　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文章第四段說“the economy has also led to cuts in allowances，and has teens work more hours at a paying job”可知經(jīng)濟(jì)的衰退減少了福利，孩子們在有償工作中工作的時間更長了。由此可知A項的表述與事實不符。

2．D　推理判斷題。文章第三段說奧巴馬當(dāng)選為美國總統(tǒng)后，美國出現(xiàn)了青少年參與社會慈善活動的高潮。由此推知，之前并沒有那么多青少年從事慈善活動。

3．C　推理判斷題。文章在最后提及“Habitat for Humanity International”及參與其中的青少年的數(shù)量在增加，旨在說明越來越多的青少年參與社會公益活動和慈善活動。

4．A　主旨大意題。通覽全文可知，“更多的青少年參加志愿活動”可以全面概括文章的意思。B、C、D三項均較片面。

【語篇解讀】　你是一個敢想敢做的人嗎？是否也會被他人觀點(diǎn)所左右呢？本文把我們的拼搏比做股票，要想成功，有時我們要敢于沖破世俗觀念，敢想敢做。

5．D　考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段第二句可知我們的信念在一定程度上決定我們的成功。

6．C　考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段舉的例子：如果一個人的家族里的成員都不認(rèn)為自己有音樂天賦，那么作為家族的一員，即使他想創(chuàng)作音樂，也很可能在世俗觀念的影響下而放棄。相反，如果一個人的家族都愛好文學(xué)，那么很可能他以后也會涉足文學(xué) (世俗觀念對人的影響很大)。

7．D　考查具體細(xì)節(jié)。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段倒數(shù)第二句“There are...such as passion，feeling，and sense.”可知答案。

8．B　考查主旨大意。根據(jù)文章主題，作者先是舉例說明世俗觀念對人的影響，而后指出我們要想成功，就要沖破世俗觀念的影響，敢想敢做。
