Can you imagine our happiness and reli1ef?I received the greatest strength from the deep love and complete understanding between my husband and me.And next to that was the kindness and help of many,many friends of many nationalities.To me,the experience of living in Shanghai during the special times was unforgettable.After the Second World War,my husband and I sailed to the United States,which is also known as the melting pot.Wherever we live,I believe,with faith and love,love between families and friends from different nationalities,we can make it our cherished home.【解题导语】 作者通过对往事的追忆告诉我们,不管生活在哪里,家人或者朋友之间只要有爱和信任就能克服困难,共建美好家园。1.What can we know about the author?A.She visitedChinaand has lived in Shanghai since then.B.She was given an unhappy home.C.She got married inCzechoslovakia.D.She could hardly tolerate her parents.解析:选C。本题考查细节理解。根据文章第二段的首句可知她是在她的家乡Czechoslovakia结的婚,因此C项正确。2.As a diabetic,the author could still live normally in 1941 because __________.A.she was able to buy enough insulinB.she received good medical treatmentC.she was looked after by her husbandD.she was helped by people of different races解析:选A。本题考查细节理解。根据文章第三段最后两句可知选项A正确。3.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refers to __________.A.a small rabbit B.an everlasting effortC.the new insulin D.the human guinea pig解析:选C。本题考查细节理解。根据文章第五段的第三、第四句可知句中的it指的就是上文提到的新研制的胰岛素(insulin)。4.How does the author feel about her stay in China?A.Unbearable.

A large number of middle school students are also involved in the game.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________One possible version:Nowadays,QQ_Farm_and_Happy_Farm_are_very_popular_among_people_from_all_walks_of_life._A_large_number_of_middle_school_students_are_also_involved_in_the_game.Some of them are addicted to it and take great delight in stealing vegetables online. In class,their minds are still wandering around the farm. They waste too much time on it so that they fail to hand in their homework in time and there is a sharp decline in their grades.Many factors contribute to the popularity of the game. To begin with,it enables students to experience the pleasure of farming,which is beyond their reach in reality. In addition,students are under great pressure and farming online is a good way for them to relax. It can also bring friends closer and closer.As far as I am concerned,though the game is really great fun,as senior students,we are supposed to focus on our studies. Also,I suggest schools starting after-school farming activities.Only in this way can students experience real happiness in farming.
