Kevin Lloyd arrived at the scene of a car accident in West Point, Utah, north of Salt Lake City. A pregnant woman and her screaming 2-year-old daughter were trapped in the car.While his partner, Allen Hadley, was tending to the driver, Lloyd couldn’t get the frightened girl to calm down. He saw she was holding several bottles of nail polish, and then he had a better idea. He asked her if she wanted to paint his nails. Soon she entirely lit up. At the same time, Hadley showed up to check on the scene.Lloyd had calmed her down and was in the process of getting his fingers painted. Then Hadley just put his hand in there. The girl began to color his nails pink. By this time, she was not only calm, but she was also happy.The girl’s mother was not injured. She thanked them for helping her daughter feel better, and they all chuckled, looking at the firefighters’ nails, and took some photos.The firefighters brought the photos back to headquarters and showed them around. The department put them up on Facebook, and thousands of people responded, with many thanking the firefighters for going out of their way to calm down a frightened girl.Fire Chief Mark Becraft said he had been surprised at all the attention. He said he was proud of his firefighters, and added that he had known members of the department who had done many things that weren’t part of the job.After the fact, Lloyd and Hadley had a small matter to tend to: the layers of polish on their nails. They bought a bottle of nail polish remover, and used almost all of it.24.Why was the 2-year-old girl frightened?A.She was caught in an accident.B. Her mother was badly injured.C.

Courageous.27.What is the purpose of the text?A.To ask us to learn to calm down in time of danger.B.To speak highly of the warm-hearted firefighters.C.To introduce the little girl who likes polishing nails.D.To praise the two firefighters who learn to decorate nails.CWhile many of us may have been away somewhere nice last summer, few would say that we’ve “summered.” “Summer” is clearly a noun, more precisely, a verbed noun.Way back in our childhood, we all learned the difference between a noun and a verb. With such a tidy definition, it was easy to spot the difference. Not so in adulthood, where we are expected to “foot” bills, “chair” committees, and “dialogue” with political opponents. Chances are you didn’t feel uncomfortable about the sight of those verbed nouns.“The verbing of nouns is as old as the English language,” says Patricia O’Conner, a former editor at The New York Times Book Review. Experts estimate that 20 percent of all English verbs were originally nouns. And the phenomenon（现象）seems to be snowballing. Since 1900, about 40 percent of all new verbs have come from nouns.Even though conversion (转化) is quite universal, plenty of grammarians object to the practice. William Strunk Jr. and E.B.White, in The Elements of Style — the Bible for the use of American English —have this to say: “Many nouns lately have been pressed into service as verbs. Not all are bad, but all are suspect.” The Chicago Manual of Style takes a similar standpoint, advising writers to use verbs with great care.“Sometimes people oppose (反对) a new verb because they refuse to accept what is unfamiliar to them,” says O’Conner. That’s why we’re comfortable “hosting” a party, but we might feel upset by the thought of “medaling” in sports. So are there any rules for verbing? Benjamin Dreyer, copy chief at Random House, doesn’t offer a rule, but suggests that people think twice about “verbifying”a noun if it’s easily replaceable by an already existing popular verb. Make sure it’s descriptive but not silly-sounding, he says.In the end, however, style is subjective. Easy conversion of nouns to verbs has been part of English grammar for centuries; it is one of the processes that make English “English.” Not every coinage (新创的词语) passes into general use, but as for trying to end verbing altogether, forget it.28.What can we learn about the verbing of nouns?A.It hasn’t recently been opposed by many grammarians.B.It is more commonly accepted by children than adults.C.It hasn’t been a rare phenomenon in the past century.D.It is easily replaced by existing verbs in practice.29.What does the author think of ending the verbing of nouns?A. Predictable.B. Practicable.C. Approaching.D. Impossible.30.What is the best title for the text?A.Are 40 Percent of all new verbs from nouns？B.Are Summering and Medaling Annoying?C.Are You Comfortable about a New Verb?D.Are There Any Rules for Verbing?第二节(共5 小题:每小题 2 分, 满分10 分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
