　　You’re probably familiar with bookmobiles—buses or vans filled with library books that serve communities with no libraries of their own—but how about a biblioburro?

　　Luis Soriano，a primary school teacher in Colombia，is putting a twist (轉變) on the traditional mobile library in his native country，where children in remote

　　villages have little access to schools or textbooks.Many of the children are the illiterate，as are their parents.Because schools are often many miles away and the children are unable to complete their homework，they often drop out before they reach high school.

　　Soriano hopes that he and his donkeys can change all that.Twice a week，he loads up two donkeys with 120 children’s books and sets off on one of the animals’ back.He travels for about four hours to reach his destination，where dozens of children are waiting eagerly to see Soriano’s selection of books.

　　Even though Soriano’s journey to each village is long，he takes the time at each location to share a lesson with the children，to help them with homework assignments，and to give them the opportunity to choose some books to borrow.Soriano’s biblioburro travels between 15 different communities，so his rare arrival is an occasion for joy and excitement for the village children.

　　“You can just see that the kids are excited when they see the biblioburro coming.It makes them happy that he continues to come，”

　　Dairo Holguin，whose children are part of Soriano’s program，told CNN.“For us，his program complements (補充) what the children learn in school.”

　　Soriano

　　has

　　traveled

　　about

　　4,000

　　hours

　　on donkey back since beginning the program twenty years ago.Despite the difficulties of traveling the dangerous Colombian regions，Soriano has no plans to stop the program anytime soon.He believes that the books he provides to the children can serve as a lifeline (救生索) to raise them from poverty.In his eyes，the power of literature is life-changing.

　　1．The underlined words “the illiterate” in Paragraph 2 refer to people who________.

　　A．don’t know how to read or write

　　B．seldom go to libraries

　　D．know little about Soriano’s program

　　2．How does Soriano take his books to the children in remote villages?

　　D．By van.

　　3．What does Soriano do to help the village children?

　　A．Give the books to them for free.

　　B．Set up libraries in the poor areas.

　　C．Call on people to help them.

　　D．Share lessons with them.

　　4．What does Holguin think about Soriano and his program?

　　A．The children are merely curious about his vehicle.

　　B．The children learn more through his biblioburro.

　　C．His program helps the children finish their schooling.

　　D．The biblioburro is big enough for the children.

　　答案：

　　課時作業(四十二)

　　.單項填空

　　1．解析：　考查with的復合結構。With the college entrance examination drawing near是with的復合結構，the college entrance examination與draw near之間是主動關系，該結構的意思是“隨著高考的臨近”。

　　答案：　C

　　2．解析：　考查虛擬語氣。recommend意為“建議”，賓語從句的謂語常用“(should)＋動詞原形”。

　　答案：　C

　　3．解析：　考查非謂語動詞。根據語意可知， follow和herself之間是動賓關系，因此用動詞的過去分詞形式作賓語補足語。注意：found后不是句子，A、D兩項可直接排除。

　　答案：　B

　　4．解析：　考查動詞詞義辨析。attribute歸因于；contribute貢獻，促成，導致；stimulate刺激；distribute分布，分配。句意為：這位老人的身體本來有望好轉，但是惡劣的天氣加重了他的感冒。

　　答案：　B

　　5．解析：　句意為：——要是我們當時更小心點事故也許就不會發生了?！晌覀儺敃r并不小心。上句是對己發生事情的一種虛擬，下句由at that time可知是陳述過去的事實。

　　答案：　D

　　6．解析：　句意為：四月，成千上萬的度假者由于受到火山灰的影響，滯留國外。本題考查非謂語動詞作表語。主語holidaymakers與stick間為被動關系，排除A、D兩項；remain＋過去分詞，表示狀態；remain＋to be done表示將來。綜上所述，答案為B項。

　　答案：　B

　　7．解析：　remind sb.to do sth.提醒某人做某事，句中用了它的被動式，C項意為“允許”，意義不當；A、D兩項不能接to do作賓補或主補。

　　答案：　B

　　8．解析：　exposure to暴露；contact with和……接觸；experiment on試驗；exhibition of展覽。根據句意應該是“長時間暴曬(exposure to)在太陽下可能會導致皮膚癌”。

　　答案：　C

　　9．解析：　propose提議，建議，后面的賓語從句應該用虛擬語氣，句中謂語動詞用“should＋動詞原形”，should可以省略。

　　答案：　A

　　10．解析：　take in欺騙；take up占據，開始從事；take down記下，寫下，拆除；take out帶某人出去，切除。根據句意“愚人節那天，你應該小心不要被騙”，可知D項正確。

　　答案：　D

　　11．解析：　句意為：我并不相信鬼神；即使如此，我也不愿夜里一個人呆在那個房間里。even so即使如此，即使這樣；even though/if即使，雖然；even as正當。

　　答案：　A

　　12．解析：　后句意為：我將請攝影師把那張照片放大。enlarge放大，符合句意。improve增進；reduce減少；appreciate鑒賞，賞識，均不合題意。

　　答案：　C

　　13．解析：　句意為：你如何看待這件事情。它不僅使人們意識到世界上還有人挨餓，而且能籌集到錢幫助那些貧窮的孩子們。awareness“意識”符合句意。

　　答案：　A

　　14．解析：　句意為：她經歷了很多事情，因此她確實知道如何對付這樣的一個人。go through經歷，符合句意。get through通過，完成；go by(時間)過去，消逝；go into進入，均與句意不符。

　　答案：　A

　　15．解析：　句意為：在開工之前，我要建筑商給我估算一下房頂的維修費用。assessment(為征稅對人的財產所做的)估價；estimate估計，評估；assumption假定，設想；evaluation評估，評價。

　　答案：　B
