style and character. i still drive it most days, even though it only does about 15 miles to the gallon! petrol was just six shillings (30p) a gallon when mr harrison bought the bentley, which had a top speed of 120mph. he has spent thousands of pounds on repairs over the years but has kept the bodywork in good condition himself, hand-painting the underneath and spraying the black panels of the bodywork. for decades the bentley was a regular sight on the roads near mr harrisons home in hampton court, surrey. he now uses it as a runaround after retiring to whitney-on-wye, herefordshire. mrs harrison, 71, said: “it was a nuisance(累贅) keeping it in tip-top order with me helping out with the repairs by passing mike the spanners the whole time. but i wouldnt have changed any of it -

and would later pay with his life. the georgia government then staged a land lottery in which cherokee land was divided into 160 equal portions. they were sold to anyone who had $4.00 and who had won a chance to own land. in 1838, general winfield scott and 7,000 troops invaded cherokee land. men, women, and children were forced to walk westward from georgia nearly 1,000 miles with minimal facilities and food, to reservations set up for them in oklahoma. cherokee chief john ross, eventually was able to convince winfield scott that his people should lead the tribe west. scott agreed and ross divided the people into smaller groups so they could forage for food on their own. although ross may have save countless lives, nearly 4,000 indians died walking this trail of tears. 1. which of the following happened first?a. cherokees walk to oklahoma.b. the indian removal act.c. the treaty of new echota.d. the georgia “l(fā)and lottery”. 答案解析：答案為b。本題為細節(jié)題。由文章第二段倒數(shù)第二句話 “in 1830, however, president andrew jackson authorized the indian removal act.”可知，b選項發(fā)生在1830年；由第三段第一句話 “just three years later, however, in 1835, the treaty of new echota was signed.”可知，c選項發(fā)生在1835年；由第三段倒數(shù)第二句話 “the georgia government then staged a land lottery in which cherokee land was divided into 160 equal portions.”可知，d選項發(fā)生在treaty of new echota后; 由最后一段前兩句話 “ in 1838, general winfield scott and 7,000 troops invaded cherokee land. set up for them in oklahoma.”可知，a選項發(fā)生在最后。故答案為b。2. the underlined part “ratified it” (in para. 3) can be replaced by “ ”. a. made it officialb. signed it secretlyc. removed itd. ignored it 答案解析：答案為a。本題為語義推斷題。結(jié)合該短語出現(xiàn)的句子 “the majority of the cherokee nation would never had agreed to the treaty, but the u.s. government ratified it anyway.”, “ratified it” 出現(xiàn)在 “but” 后面，可見該短語和前面的never had agreed to the “treaty 意思相反，故答案為a，使條約正式化。3. why was john ridge viewed as a traitor by the cherokees?a. because he sold his land to the u.s.government at a low price.b. because he represented the u.s. govermment.c. because he signed an unfair treaty for the cherokees.d. because he carried out a “l(fā)and lottery” in georgia. 答案解析：答案為c。本題為推理題。細讀第三段，treaty of new echota被簽署，但不是經(jīng)過cherokee 民族批準的，而是由john ridge領導的一小群cherokee極端分子干的，規(guī)定cherokee民族離開georgia，政府賠償給他們原有土地的百分之五，大多數(shù)cherokee 人并不同意該條約，但是美國政府最終還是批準了該條約，因此john ridge被認為是cherokee的民族叛徒。故答案為c。4. according to the passage, what is the key factor for the “trail of tears”?a. the conflict between the cherokees and the local government.b. the increase of population in the state of georgia.c. the constant struggle for land between the native americans and the settlers.d. the discovery of gold in western gerogia.答案解析：答案為d。本題為推理題。文章的最后提到 “nearly 4,000 indians died walking this trail of tears”， 為什么會發(fā)生此事？本題實際考察現(xiàn)象背后的實質(zhì)：cherokee 印第安人為什么要移民？由文章第二段 “the cherokee indians, of western georgia had managed to keep their land until gold was discovered in their territory in 1828.” 可知，western georgia 發(fā)現(xiàn)了金子后，白人就覬覦此片土地淘金，發(fā)生了后來的移民事件，留下了cherokee 印第安人的血和淚。故答案為d。完形填空。the grand ole opry, in nashville, tennessee, has always been americas most important concert hall for country music. every saturday night the place is filled to the ceiling with country music _1_. one _2_in january 1967, was a very _3_night at the opry. for the first time, a _4_man was an attraction (引人注目). _5_music had always been thought of as “white music”. for many, it was a strange _6_to see charley pride step _7_the opry stage. some people felt _8_about whether a black man could sing country songs. _9_charleys smooth voice quickly _10_over the opry _11_， charley was so good that before long, he was country musics biggest _12_.like many country singers, charley was _13_on a farm. he spent his youth milking cows and picking cotton. but he knew he wasnt going to make _14_his career (職業(yè)). later he became a baseball player.charley made it to a major (主要的) league team. but he didnt stay on for more than one season.in the winter, after the baseball season, charley _15_ at a local nightclub. one evening, red sovine, a great country music star, _16_charley. red told charley to forget about _17_and go for a singing career.charley took the _18_and became a true hit maker. his _19_were always near the top on the list. some were number one all over the country.today charley pride is _20_one of the biggest stars in country music. but he says his real wish is to own a baseball team.1a.peoplebsoundcfansdsongs答案：cfan意為“(運動、音樂等的)狂熱愛好者”。2a.saturday
