　　As the first woman Chancellor(總理) in German’s history, Angela Merkel topped Forbes magazine’s list of “The World’s 100 Most Powerful Women” in 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009. She has even been compared to Margaret Thatcher and many people called her “Iron Lady”.

　　Merkel was born in Hamburg, West Germany, on July 17, 1954. Six weeks after she was born, her family moved to Templin. As a small child, Merkel quickly learned to speak but took longer to walk. “I was a stupid person when it came to moving.” Merkel said. “A normal person could do something naturally, but I had to think about it in my mind and practice.” As a teenager, she was the top student and graduated from high school with perfect marks. In 1973, Merkel went to the University of Leipzig, where she studied physics. At 32, she got her doctor’s degree in Physics.

　　She stepped_into_politics in 1989. In her first big political job as Minister for the Environment in 1994, her scientific background and strong will proved very useful. In 2005 she became Germany’s Chancellor. She has been reelected to a second term as German Chancellor on September 27, 2009.

　　Through her political career, Merkel’s persistence (堅持) and patience helped her a lot. “She’s bright and open－minded，” said Hubert Markl. “She is the person who wants to know exactly what is going on, and how never giving up will influence our society and future.”

　?、?閱讀簡答

　　It’s strange that a man born on Labor Day has had to work so hard to succeed in life. Jacob seems like a normal person. He likes music, art and photography. His parents both got college degrees. He used to go to a beach house in Portland every summer. He is a big fan of Mexican food. Reading these facts about him may lead to the opinion that he had a great childhood. However, behind all of these is a past that would be terrible for many kids growing up.

　　It started when he was only two years old. His parents divorced and then remarried. Going through elementary school and middle school, he was frightened a lot. This may have led to the worst thing that could have happened to a young man.

　　He developed deep depression. Doing the smart thing, he talked to his parents about his problem. His parents decided that this issue was very serious and Jacob was admitted to West Hills Hospital. He stayed there for two weeks and had his depression diagnosed. Serious insomnia caused the problem.

　　The solution was daily medication. The medication took care of Jacob’s depression problem. However, it contained a substance with lithium(鋰). The side effect he suffered from lithium was that he got spoonfuls of sugar and ate it with anything else that was on his plate. This led to a weight gain of 25 pounds while he was on medication. So he decided he had to lose some weight and stop the medication.

　　Now he has lost a big part of the weight and he has managed to solve his problem he had in high school. Now he is a happy human being.

　　Many people would have had a very hard time coming back from depression. Many people probably would have given up their dreams. But Jacob is not like this. He took what was a mess of his life and turned it around to become a great man and a person with a very bright future.

　　33. When was Jacob possibly born according to the passage? (No more than 3 words)

　　________________________________________________________________________

　　35. How did Jacob gain the weight of 25 pounds while on medication? ( No more than 5 words)

　　課時作業(二十六)

　　Ⅰ.1.A　here和there放在句首時，主語是名詞要用全部倒裝，主語為代詞則不用倒裝。

　　2．A　表示否定含義的副詞never放句首用部分倒裝。

　　3．A　本題考查倒裝句的用法。句意為：只有在你飲食正確的條件下，你才能保持健康。only用于句首和狀語或狀語從句連用時，后面使用倒裝結構。unless＝if not(除非；如果……不)，用于句首時引導條件狀語從句，主句不用倒裝，首先排除C項。D項句意為：“如果你飲食正確，你將不能保持健康?！闭Z意邏輯有問題。故A項正確。

　　4．B　本題考查動詞詞義辨析。differ 不同，有差別；range(在一定范圍內)變化；alter 改變；separate 分開，分離。此句的意思是：得取決于你買的樣式，價格在100美元到500美元里變化。根據句意，應選B。

　　5．B　本題考查動詞辨析。前面的leave表示離開大學，那么后面就應該選擇“不允許”返回來了。admit 允許；receive收到；turn翻轉；move移動。故選B。

　　6．C　本題考查動詞詞義辨析。根據題意，“我們推算我們將在下午六點到那兒”可知選C。count數；figure計算；calculate估計，推算；evaluate 評估，評價。

　　7．D　考查名詞辨析。A項意為“報酬，獎金”，B項意為“獎賞，獎金，獎品”，C項意為“成本，價錢，代價”，D項意為“價值，估價，評價”。句意為：鑒于它真正的價值，我想，它很值得付諸實踐。

　　8．A　before的本意是“在……之前”，在此句理解為“還沒來得及……”。

　　9．B　考查名詞辨析。scene意為“景象，尤指部分景色或某一舞臺場面或片斷”；view 指從遠處或窗戶看到的視野范圍內的風景；觀點，看法；scenery 風景，景色，舞臺布景，強調從美的角度看，某個國家或地區的總體外貌；landscape(自然的)風景，景色；風景畫，多指內陸的自然風光。

　　10．A　考查名詞詞義辨析。句意：地震過后，地方政府所做的第一件事就是為那些無家可歸的人們提供食宿。accommodation住處；occupation 占有，居住；equipment 設備；furniture家具。

　　11．C　考查非謂語動詞。句意：南方下了大雨，在幾個省區造成嚴重洪災?？崭窈髎erious flooding是rained heavily的后果，而且句子主語it和cause之間存在主動關系，所以此處要用動詞的－ing形式作結果狀語

　　12．C　考查固定搭配。commit oneself to doing sth.承諾做某事。

　　13．B　考查時態和主謂一致。根據as well as并列兩個名詞作主語時，謂語動詞與as well as前面的名詞在人稱數上一致，排除A項；experiment with意為“進行實驗，進行試驗”，experiment on意為“在……上試驗”，如：He experimented on rats.由此排除D項；根據語境，該空與其主語在邏輯上是主動關系，排除C項。

　　14．A　 否定副詞never放于句首，構成倒裝句，時間狀語應用陳述語序。

　　15．B　 next month是時間點，不是時間段，“after＋時間點”可用于將來時，表示某一特定時間之后。此處如果不用介詞，則表示“下個月”；用了after，則表示“下個月以后”。until在肯定句中要與延續性動詞連用。

　?、?這是一篇夾敘夾議的文章，記述了感恩節前夕發生在一對母女身上的感人故事。雖然家境貧寒，但是母親仍然捐獻給因失火而身陷困境的鄰居一些物品。正在這時，僅僅三歲的女兒決定要捐獻自己最喜愛的玩具熊，媽媽舍不得但是又不忍傷害女兒幼小的心靈，勉強同意了。女兒年齡雖小，但是心胸不小，可愛可敬。

　　16．A　上文提到住所簡陋，又沒有工作，生活艱堆，只能勉強量入為出。struggled (努力，奮斗)符合語境。
