Matt and his wife lived in the country. Matt was very stingy and hated spending money. One day a fair (交易会) came to the nearby town.
They went to the fair and looked at all the things to buy. Matt’s wife wanted to buy a hat only costing $28, but was refused. Later on, a comb of $5 attracted her attention, but he would not let her spend any money.
Then, in a nearby field, they saw a small airplane. “Fun flight!” the notice said, “$10 for 10 minutes.”
Matt had never been in an airplane and he wanted to go on a fun flight. However, he didn’t want to pay for his wife either. “I’ve only got $10,” he told the pilot. “Can my wife come with me for free ” The pilot wasn’t selling many tickets, so he said, “I’ll make a bargain with you. If your wife doesn’t scream, she can have a free flight.”
Matt agreed, and got into the small airplane with his wife.
The pilot took off and made his airplane do all kinds of things. At one moment it was flying upside down.
When the plane landed, the pilot said, “OK, your wife didn’t make a sound. She can have her ride free.”
“Thank you,” Matt said, “it wasn’t easy for her, you know, especially when she fell out.”
4. Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word “stingy” in Paragraph 1
A. Mean. B. Kind. C. Strict. D. Thoughtful.
5. The pilot flew the airplane upside down in order to________.

C. show off his perfect flying skills
D. provide the couple with pleasure of excitement

Down-to-earth means being honest, open, and easy to deal with. It is a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to. He or she accepts others as equals. A down-to-earth person may be an important member of society, of course, but they do not let their importance go to their heads, and they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. Someone who is filled with self-importance and pride, often without cause, is said to have his nose in the air. There is no way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.
Americans use another expression that is similar in some way to down-to-earth. The expression is both feet on the ground. Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality (现实). He has what is called common sense. He may have dreams but he does not allow them to block his knowledge of what is real. The opposite kind of person is one who has his head in the clouds. A man with his head in the clouds is a dreamer whose mind is not in the world. Sometimes such a dreamer can be brought back to reality; sharp words from the teacher, for example, can usually get a daydreaming student to put both feet back on the ground.
The person who is down-to-earth usually has both feet on the ground. But the opposite is not always true. Someone with both feet on the ground may not be as open and easy to deal with as someone who is down-to-earth. When we have both our feet firmly on the ground, we are realistic and we act honestly and openly toward others, and our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.
8. If a person has his nose in the air, he________.
A. is down to the earth B. is easy to deal with
C. thinks he is more important than others D. is admired by others
9. If a person has both feet on the ground, he________.
A. is in touch with reality, and doesn’t have any dreams
B. has some dreams but he is realistic
C. is honest, open and easy to deal with
D. is practical but hard to deal with
10. From the second paragraph, we know that sharp words from a teacher can usually_______.
A. help a student get down to the earth B. wake a student up
C. hurt a daydreaming student’s feelings D. make a daydreaming student more realistic
11. From the passage we can infer the person who is_______ is the most popular kind of person.
A. down-to-earth B. standing on the ground
C. with his nose in the air D. with his head in the clouds
D
I’m attending a weekend workshop. What the leader asked us to follow was simple enough. She was a good teacher—she described what we had to do, then showed us how, then asked us to do it.—that’s a typical teaching method.
But I was finding the do part far more difficult and stressful than I had expected. I was outside my comfort zone, feeling awkward and uncertain. I tried to follow her directions, but I made mistakes in front of the others, and it felt embarrassing (令人尴尬的).
Here’s the thing: Although the act of learning is related to abilities, behaviors and methods, the experience of learning is emotional (激起情绪的). And it’s the emotional experience of learning—of being a beginner and making mistakes, often publicly—that keeps people from even trying to learn.
While learning may not be that hard, being a beginner can be very hard, especially when we see ourselves, and want to be seen by others in a group, as skilled and confident. Being awkward can even feel shameful. But it’s just a stage we have to go through in order to become graceful and competent. And our unwillingness to experience this stage can stop our future growth. This is especially true of areas where you, re already an expert.
Though I have taught leadership programs for 30 years, I still spend at least three weeks every year going to various personal development programs. More often than not, I, like a beginner, tried new skills, feeling awkward and even shame for not being better at a skill. And those are hard feelings to feel. But they are the unavoidable growth pains that come with learning, developing, and becoming better at something.
I wish, by the end of the weekend workshop, I could be completely comfortable and relaxed in all our activities. But that’s not the case. Maybe I’m a little more comfortable. But learning takes time and comfort takes experience.
There is one thing the workshop made me more comfortable doing: staying in the discomfort of learning long enough to learn.
12. How does the author introduce the topic of text
A. By sharing a personal experience.
B. By describing an excellent teacher.
C. By explaining a typical teaching method.
D. By recommending a weekend workshop.
13. What may prevent people from trying to learn according to the text
A. Fear of learning nothing.
B. Fear of making mistakes.
C. Lack of learning methods.
D. Lack of communication skills.
14. What can be learned about the author
A. He knows well how learning feels.
B. He is regarded as a successful leader.
C. He designs various development programs.
D. He can’t bear awkward feelings of learning.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. How to Become a Successful Learner
B. Learning Needs Efforts and Experiences
C. How to Avoid Embarrassment in Learning
D. Learning Is Supposed to Feel Uncomfortable

Matt and his wife lived in the country. Matt was very stingy and hated spending money. One day a fair (交易会) came to the nearby town.
They went to the fair and looked at all the things to buy. Matt’s wife wanted to buy a hat only costing $28, but was refused. Later on, a comb of $5 attracted her attention, but he would not let her spend any money.
Then, in a nearby field, they saw a small airplane. “Fun flight!” the notice said, “$10 for 10 minutes.”
Matt had never been in an airplane and he wanted to go on a fun flight. However, he didn’t want to pay for his wife either. “I’ve only got $10,” he told the pilot. “Can my wife come with me for free ” The pilot wasn’t selling many tickets, so he said, “I’ll make a bargain with you. If your wife doesn’t scream, she can have a free flight.”
Matt agreed, and got into the small airplane with his wife.
The pilot took off and made his airplane do all kinds of things. At one moment it was flying upside down.
When the plane landed, the pilot said, “OK, your wife didn’t make a sound. She can have her ride free.”
“Thank you,” Matt said, “it wasn’t easy for her, you know, especially when she fell out.”

【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇记叙文，讲述了吝啬鬼Matt和他的妻子在集市上游玩的经历。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章划线词后文“hated spending money(讨厌花钱)”可以推测，Matt是非常小气吝啬的，stingy与mean（吝啬的）同义。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段““I’ve only got $10,” he told the pilot. “Can my wife come with me for free ”(“我只有10美元，”他告诉飞行员。“我的妻子可以免费和我一起去吗？”)”及“I’ll make a bargain with you. If your wife doesn’t scream, she can have a free flight.(我跟你做个交易。如果你妻子不尖叫，她就可以免费飞行)”及“The pilot took off and made his airplane do all kinds of things. At one moment it was flying upside down.(飞行员起飞，让他的飞机做各种各样的事情。有一段时间它是倒着飞的)”可知，飞行员想要赚钱，所以想方设法让Matt的妻子尖叫，因此，他将飞机倒着飞是为了让Matt的妻子大喊大叫，再赚10美元。故选B项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““Thank you,” Matt said, “it wasn’t easy for her, you know, especially when she fell out.”(“谢谢你，”马特说，“你知道，这对她来说并不容易，尤其是她摔下来的时候。”)”可知，Matt的妻子没有大喊大叫，Matt省下了钱，但是妻子摔下去了，所以这是一个笑话，文章是为了让读者发笑。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Matt was very stingy and hated spending money.(马特很吝啬，讨厌花钱)”及第四段““I’ve only got $10,” he told the pilot. “Can my wife come with me for free ”(“我只有10美元，”他告诉飞行员。“我的妻子可以免费和我一起去吗？”)”结合最后一段Matt宁愿让妻子掉下去也不舍得给她花钱可知，Matt更看重钱而不是他的妻子。故选A项。
C
Down-to-earth means being honest, open, and easy to deal with. It is a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to. He or she accepts others as equals. A down-to-earth person may be an important member of society, of course, but they do not let their importance go to their heads, and they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. Someone who is filled with self-importance and pride, often without cause, is said to have his nose in the air. There is no way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.
Americans use another expression that is similar in some way to down-to-earth. The expression is both feet on the ground. Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality (现实). He has what is called common sense. He may have dreams but he does not allow them to block his knowledge of what is real. The opposite kind of person is one who has his head in the clouds. A man with his head in the clouds is a dreamer whose mind is not in the world. Sometimes such a dreamer can be brought back to reality; sharp words from the teacher, for example, can usually get a daydreaming student to put both feet back on the ground.
The person who is down-to-earth usually has both feet on the ground. But the opposite is not always true. Someone with both feet on the ground may not be as open and easy to deal with as someone who is down-to-earth. When we have both our feet firmly on the ground, we are realistic and we act honestly and openly toward others, and our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.
8. If a person has his nose in the air, he________.
A. is down to the earth B. is easy to deal with
C. thinks he is more important than others D. is admired by others
9. If a person has both feet on the ground, he________.
A. is in touch with reality, and doesn’t have any dreams
B. has some dreams but he is realistic
C. is honest, open and easy to deal with
D. is practical but hard to deal with
10. From the second paragraph, we know that sharp words from a teacher can usually_______.
A. help a student get down to the earth B. wake a student up
C hurt a daydreaming student’s feelings D. make a daydreaming student more realistic
11. From the passage, we can infer the person who is_______ is the most popular kind of person.
A. down-to-earth B. standing on the ground
C. with his nose in the air D. with his head in the clouds
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了几个描述人的英文俗语，通过将脚踏实地的人与其他种类的人相比较，突出脚踏实地的人的优良品质和特点。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Someone who is filled with self-importance and pride, often without cause, is said to have his nose in the air.(一个充满自负和骄傲的人，通常没有理由，被称为目中无人)”可知，如果说一个人鼻子在空气中（目中无人），这个人是自负的，骄傲的，会认为自己比别人更重要。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality (现实).He has what is called common sense. He may have dreams but he does not allow them to block his knowledge of what is real. (一个脚踏实地的人是一个对现实有很好理解的人。他有所谓的常识。他可能会做梦，但他不会让梦挡住他对真实的认识)”可知，一个脚踏实地的人有一些梦想，但他很现实。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Sometimes such a dreamer can be brought back to reality; sharp words from the teacher, for example, can usually get a daydreaming student to put both feet back on the ground.(有时这样的梦想家可以被带回现实；例如，老师的尖锐言辞通常可以让一个做白日梦的学生重新回到地面上)”可知，来自老师的尖锐言辞可以让做白日梦的学生更认清楚现实。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Down-to-earth means being honest, open, and easy to deal with. It is a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to. He or she accepts others as equals. A down-to-earth person may be an important member of society, of course, but they do not let their importance go to their heads, and they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important.(脚踏实地意味着诚实、开放、容易相处。能找到一个脚踏实地的人是一件快乐的事。一个脚踏实地的人很容易交谈。他或她平等地对待他人。一个脚踏实地的人当然可能是社会的重要成员，但他们不会让自己的重要性冲昏头脑，也不会认为自己比那些不那么重要的人优越)”及最后一段“When we have both our feet firmly on the ground, we are realistic and we act honestly and openly toward others, and our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.(当我们脚踏实地时，我们是现实的，我们对别人的行为是诚实和开放的，我们的生活就像我们脚下的土地一样，坚实而强大)”可推知，脚踏实地的人有很多优质特点，因此应该是最受欢迎的一类人。故选A项。
D
I’m attending a weekend workshop. What the leader asked us to follow was simple enough. She was a good teacher—she described what we had to do, then showed us how, then asked us to do it.—that’s a typical teaching method.
But I was finding the do part far more difficult and stressful than I had expected. I was outside my comfort zone, feeling awkward and uncertain. I tried to follow her directions, but I made mistakes in front of the others, and it felt embarrassing (令人尴尬的).
Here’s the thing: Although the act of learning is related to abilities, behaviors and methods, the experience of learning is emotional (激起情绪的). And it’s the emotional experience of learning—of being a beginner and making mistakes, often publicly—that keeps people from even trying to learn.
While learning may not be that hard, being a beginner can be very hard, especially when we see ourselves, and want to be seen by others in a group, as skilled and confident. Being awkward can even feel shameful. But it’s just a stage we have to go through in order to become graceful and competent. And our unwillingness to experience this stage can stop our future growth. This is especially true of areas where you, re already an expert.
Though I have taught leadership programs for 30 years, I still spend at least three weeks every year going to various personal development programs. More often than not, I, like a beginner, tried new skills, feeling awkward and even shame for not being better at a skill. And those are hard feelings to feel. But they are the unavoidable growth pains that come with learning, developing, and becoming better at something.
I wish, by the end of the weekend workshop, I could be completely comfortable and relaxed in all our activities. But that’s not the case. Maybe I’m a little more comfortable. But learning takes time and comfort takes experience.
There is one thing the workshop made me more comfortable doing: staying in the discomfort of learning long enough to learn.
12. How does the author introduce the topic of text
A. By sharing a personal experience.
B. By describing an excellent teacher.
C. By explaining a typical teaching method.
D. By recommending a weekend workshop.
13. What may prevent people from trying to learn according to the text
A. Fear of learning nothing.
B. Fear of making mistakes.
C. Lack of learning methods.
D. Lack of communication skills.
14. What can be learned about the author
A. He knows well how learning feels.
B. He is regarded as a successful leader.
C. He designs various development programs.
D. He can’t bear awkward feelings of learning.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. How to Become a Successful Learner
B. Learning Needs Efforts and Experiences
C. How to Avoid Embarrassment in Learning
D. Learning Is Supposed to Feel Uncomfortable
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者过自己对学习的感受，说明了学习行为虽然与能力、行为和方法有关系，但是学习的情感体验在学习的过程中起到重要的作用，学习应该感受到不舒服。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I’m attending a weekend workshop. What the leader asked us to follow was simple enough.(我正在参加一个周末研讨会。领导要求我们做的事情很简单。)”和第二段中的“But I was finding the do part far more difficult and stressful than I had expected.(但我发现做的部分比我预期的要困难得多，压力也大得多。)”可知，作者去参加研讨会，从一开始认为学习会很简单，到发现做起来比想象的要难，由此可判断，作者通过自己的经历引出本文话题。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“And it’s the emotional experience of learning—of being a beginner and making mistakes, often publicly—that keeps people from even trying to learn.(正是学习的情感体验——作为一个初学者和犯错误，通常是公开的——让人们甚至不敢尝试学习。)”可知，正是人们的学习的情感体验，也就是怕经常公开犯错误会阻止人们继续学习。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中的“More often than not, I, like a beginner, tried new skills, feeling awkward and even shame for not being better at a skill. And those are hard feelings to feel. But they are the unavoidable growth pains that come with learning, developing, and becoming better at something.(很多时候，我像初学者一样尝试新技能，为没有在一项技能上做得更好而感到尴尬甚至羞耻。这些都是很难感受的。但它们是学习、发展和变得更好时不可避免的成长痛苦。)”可知，作者通常像一个初学者那样去体验学习所经历的那种因为自及不擅长某种技能而感到的尴尬与羞愧，但又是伴随着学习不可避免的成长痛苦，由此可知，作者很了解学习的感受。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“There is one thing the workshop made me more comfortable doing: staying in the discomfort of learning long enough to learn.(有一件事让我更舒服：保持学习的不适感足够长的时间去学习。)”可知，在作者此次研讨会中的体验就是：待在不适区足够长才能去学习，以及全文作者对学习情感体验的描述，作者认为，学习就是要摆脱舒适区，由此可判断，本文的标题为“学习就是要感受不舒适”。故选D项。
