1．—Which driver was ________？
—Why，neither！It was the child’s fault，clear and simple.He suddenly came out between two parked cars.
A．blamed B．to be blamed
C．to blame D．blaming
解析：选C。本题考查固定句式。sb.be to blame(for sth.)意为“某人对某事负有责任”，不要受汉语的影响错用其被动形式，只有表达“某人因为某事受到了责备”时，才使用be blamed for结构。
2．Fully ________ in preparing for the coming exam，she no longer has time to enjoy the various activities in her neighborhood.
A．devoted B．contributed
C．attended D．absorbed
解析：选D。本题考查动词搭配。根据句意可知她忙于准备考试，因此选择absorbed；如果选择devoted，其后的介词应为to。
3．—When were you told about what had happened
—________ I got off the train.
A．The moment B．For the moment
C．At the moment D．For a moment
解析：选A。本题考查名词作连词。the moment“一……就”。
4．The ________，I think，he drew from his simple experiment is not scientific.
A．conclusion B．charge
C．promise D．view
解析：选A。本题考查名词辨析。根据句中的drew可知所含的短语是draw a conclusion“得出结论”。
5．Recently quite a lot of experts ________ that another law on wildlife protection ________ as soon as possible.
A．suggested；must be passed
B．have suggested；be passed
C．were suggesting；was passed
D．suggested；being passed
解析：选B。根据句意可知suggest在句中的含义是“建议”，因此宾语从句要用虚拟语气，即should＋v.；而another law和pass之间是被动关系，因此用should be passed，should可以省略。
6．She felt very sad that she was suspected ________ supplying false statement at the court.
A．because of B．for
C．to D．of
解析：选D。本题考查动词搭配。suspect sb.of(doing)sth.“怀疑某人做某事”。

A．attending B．taking
C．leaving D．completing
解析：选A。本题考查动词词义。attend school“上学”。

—Yes.It seems that Zhang Peng is ________.He was the last who left the classroom yesterday evening.
A．blaming B．blamed

9．When I opened the door，I found my father sitting in his chair，completely ________ in the humorous stories he was reading.
A．absorbed B．losing
C．attracted D．addicted
解析：选A。本题考查动词短语结构的辨析。句意：当我打开门的时候，我发现父亲正坐在椅子上，他已经被他所看的幽默故事所吸引了。be absorbed in全神贯注于，专心于；B项表示此意应为be lost in；attract应为attracted by the humorous stories；addicted常构成be addicted to对……痴迷，上瘾，故A正确。
10．I can’t go to the park with you because I have an important meeting to ________.
A．take part B．join
C．attend D．join in
解析：选C。attend a meeting参加会议。A项应加介词in；join in和join后不接“会议”。
11．—Could you please help me with this problem
—Certainly.First of all，let’s ________ the problem and see what went wrong.
A．analyse B．examine
C．inspect D．survey
解析：选A。analyse分析；examine检查；inspect检查；survey调查。根据题意应选A。
12．No difficulty could ________ this brave man since he is so much confident and capable.
A．defeat B．attack
C．win D．overcome
解析：选A。本题考查动词意义的辨析。根据句意可知此人勇敢、自信、有能力，所以可以推断出他肯定不会被困难“打垮，打败(defeat)”。而attack表示“袭击”；win一般表示“赢得比赛项目或奖励”；overcome表示“某人战胜困难”，都不符合语境。
13．(2011年龙海高二检测)—Your son is naughty.

15．As nobody here knows what is wrong with the machine，we must send for an engineer to ________ the problem.
A．handle B．raise
C．face D．present
解析：选A。因为这儿没人知道机器出了什么故障，我们必须派人去请一个工程师来解决这个难题。handle处理，解决；raise提出；face正视；present介绍，呈现，呈递。由句意可知A项正确。
Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
Michael Faraday was the son of a blacksmith (铁匠)．There were four children in his family and, with his father often ill and unable to work，Michael Faraday had to earn his living from an early age.This meant little or no schooling.However，the family belonged to a religious group，and Faraday learnt to read and write at Sunday School.
When he was only fourteen，Faraday found a job as a bookbinder (装订工)．He used to read the books he was given to bind and he became very interested in the scientific books，particularly the ones about electricity.His interest soon took a practical path and he began conducting his own experiments.These were very basic because Faraday had to make all of his equipment himself.However，he was very careful and kept a clear written record of all his findings.
One day he was given an entrance ticket to the Royal Institute chemistry lecture，given by Humphry Davy.Determined to work for this great scientist，he sent Davy a job application and included his laboratory reports on the experiments he had carried out.In 1813 Davy offered Faraday a job as one of his laboratory assistants.Faraday learnt quickly and soon was recognized as a very able analytical chemist.Later he went to work at the Royal Institute.
Michael Faraday was, perhaps，the greatest practical scientist of the 19th century.As a chemist，he discovered the benzene (苯)，which is now the focal point of chemical study.He also proved the relationship between electricity and chemical bonding (化学键)．As a physicist，he invented the dynamo，which led to the later invention of the electric motor.He also discovered the effect of magnetism (磁) on light rays.
【文章大意】 他家境贫寒，未受过系统的正规教育，但却在众多领域做出惊人成就，堪称刻苦勤奋、探索真理的典范。他就是英国著名物理学家、化学家迈克尔·法拉第。
1．Why did Faraday attend Sunday School
A．He had to work for a bookbinder at weekdays.
B．He hoped to read many of the scientific books there.
C．He would like to learn religious knowledge.
D．His family couldn’t afford his normal school education.
解析：选D。细节理解题。根据第一段的叙述可知，法拉第年幼时家境贫寒，上不起正规的学校，只好上了周日学校。
2．When working as a bookbinder，Faraday________.
A．published his great findings on electricity
B．made his own equipment for his experiments
C．read many books by Humphry Davy
D．gained his fame as a practical scientist
解析：选B。细节理解题。根据第二段“These were very basic because Faraday had to make all of his equipment himself.”可知，法拉第自己动手制造实验器材。
3．In order to get a chance to work for Davy，Faraday________.
A．bought tickets to attend Davy’s lecture
B．sent his experiment reports to Davy
C．went to the Royal Institute to visit Davy
D．offered to do laboratory work for free
解析：选B。细节理解题。根据第三段“Determined to work for this great scientist，he sent Davy a job application and included his laboratory reports on the experiments he had carried out.”可知B项正确。
4．Which of the following is the right order of Faraday’s life
a．A laboratory assistant. b．A student of Sunday School.
c．A bookbinder. d．An analytical chemist.
A．a→b→c→d B．b→c→d→a

5．We can learn from the last paragraph that________.
A．the electric motor was invented by Faraday
B．electricity was Faraday’s best known finding
C．Faraday’s research covered different fields
D．Faraday was more a chemist than a physicist
解析：选C。推理判断题。通过最后一段介绍法拉第在物理、化学不同领域的发明创造可推知，他的研究涉及到不同领域。
B
My daughter first began to pay attention to the outside world when she was in junior high school.In her Social Studies course，she completed an after class project called “My Ideal Occupation”．Although both my wife and I hoped our daughter would choose a field such as doctor，lawyer，or financial analyst，we did not offer our opinion.Instead，we decided to let her explore her own dream.
The day came to present their projects，I went to the school at my daughter’s request.The children’s ideal occupations were rich and colorful.Some wanted to be a teacher while others wanted to be a detective.Occupations like pilot，nurse，actor，model，firefighter，accountant，carpenter and landscape architect were also chosen.My daughter chose to be a dancer.As I looked at those kids with their childish and proud expressions，I felt strongly that they were serious and certain about their choices.Each occupation was equal in their eyes.They thought no less of the students who wanted to be a carpenter or a mechanic than they did of those who wanted to be a doctor or a lawyer.
From the project，the children learned about the society，at the same time，they got the chance to explore their interests.In addition，the school invited some experts from different fields to the school so they could communicate directly with the children and answer their questions. My daughter and I went to listen to a presentation by a dance expert.
“If you set your mind on being a dance artist，you ought to be ready for a lifetime of hardship.Not everyone can be successful.Even if you succeed, you won’t be able to stay on stage for long.”Statements like this instantly related the children’s ideal world with reality.The dance artist continued，“Sure，dance provides a chance for your dream to come true on the stage.While dancing, you will experience joys and excitement，the beauty of life，nature and soul.”
In my opinion，the American educational system, to a large extent，aims at building the basis for achieving self value in the future.It also encourages students to seek out the links between knowledge and real life.
6．The best title of this passage might be________.
A．The Future in Children’s Eyes
B．Different Occupations Children Love
C．Advice on Children’s Occupations
D．My Daughter’s Dream
解析：选A。主旨大意题。题目可译为“孩子们眼中的未来”。其他选项都是以偏概全。
7．What’s the writer’s attitude towards his daughter’s choice for her future occupation
A．He should play an important role.
B．He respected his daughter’s will.
C．He persuaded his wife to support their daughter.
D．He was proud of his daughter’s choice.
解析：选B。细节理解题。作者虽然希望孩子能当医生、律师等，但还是尊重孩子的选择。由首段“Althoughboth my wife and I hoped our daughter would choose a field such as doctor，lawyer，or financial analyst，we did not offer our opinion.Instead，we decided to let her explore her own dream.”得出。
8．What did the children benefit from this activity held by the school
A．They had the opportunity to understand the adult world.
B．They had the chance to discover their interests.
C．They could decide their future careers with the help of teachers, parents and experts.
D．They had the chance to find out their interests and know about the society.

1．I cared for none of the presents________the wonderful bag you bought for my 12th birthday.
A．in addition to B．as well as
C．in addition D．apart from
解析：选D。本题考查介词短语的意义和用法。根据题干语境意义，尤其是wonderful一词，可以推断讲话者只喜欢这件生日礼物，in addition to和as well as一样，表示并列关系，不符合题干意义；而in addition意为“另外”，后不接宾语，且不符合题意；apart from意为“除……之外”。
2．It’s dangerous to get close to the building________construction.
A．in B．under
C．on D．from
解析：选B。under construction(＝being built)意为“在建造中”。句意：靠近正在兴建的建筑物很危险。
3．The United Nations called on these countries to solve this problem in a(n)________way，adding that any negative measure would cause bad effects.
A．immediate B．cautious
C．positive D．enthusiastic
解析：选C。句意：联合国号召这些国家以积极的方式解决这个问题，并且补充说任何消极的措施都会造成不好的影响。根据句中的negative(消极的)判断应填与其意义相反的positive(积极的)。
4．Doctors in the hospital say that his eating habits might have________to his heart problems.
A．caused B．mentioned
C．contributed D．resulted
解析：选C。contribute to sth.意为“对某事起促成作用”。句意：医院的医生说可能是他的饮食习惯导致了他的心脏病。
5．We have very strict quality control，so anything that is imperfect is________.
A．refused B．rejected
C．ignored D．considered
解析：选B。reject意为“(因质量不好而)废弃”。句意：我们实行非常严格的质量管理，凡是有缺陷的一概剔除。
6．(2011年河南实验中学高二检测)Only in this way________to get there ahead of time.
A．you can hope B．you did hope
C．can you hope D．did you hope
解析：选C。句意：只有通过这种方法你才有希望提前到达那里。only修饰状语放在句首，主句要部分倒装，所以选C。B、D两项时态与句意不符。
7．________two exams to worry about，I have to work really hard this weekend.
A．With B．Besides
C．As for D．Because of
解析：选A。此处构成“with＋复合宾语”结构，即with sth.to do有某事要做，表示原因；虽然D项也可以表示原因，但其后不能接复合结构；其他选项无此用法，故选A。
8．Obviously，it doesn’t________to dig another tunnel to rescue the miners trapped in the mine 200 meters deep under the ground.
A．make certain B．make sense
C．make use D．make up
解析：选B。考查动词短语的意义辨析。make sense意为“有意义，讲得通”。句意：显然，再挖一个隧道去援救被困在地下200米深处的矿工是讲不通的。而make certain意为“确定”；make use意为“应用”；make up意为“组成；弥补”，都与句子语境不符。
9．I think the global economic crisis will never be solved________all the countries in the world work together.
A．while B．until
C．since D．because
解析：选B。考查时间状语从句的连接词语。not...until...表示“直到……才(能)……”，引导时间状语从句。句意：我认为直到世界各国都联合起来才能解决全球的经济危机。
10．Our students ought to________our share to the coming college students’ sports meeting in our city.
A．contribute B．construct
C．instruct D．introduce
解析：选A。考查动词的词义辨析。contribute意为“奉献，贡献”。句意：我们应该为即将在我市举办的大学生运动会奉献自己的力量。而construct意为“建设”；instruct意为“指导”；introduce意为“介绍”，都不符合句子语境意义。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Rubbish from people’s daily life should be used to produce green power rather than being sent for recycling(回收利用)，according to energy experts.
At a meeting to start a new report by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers on dealing with waste，the authors said that converting(转换)waste could provide up to a fifth of the UK’s electricity needs in the future and help the country meet its renewable energy aims.
But environmentalists have shown concerns over the report.They insist that recycling rubbish is still a better choice to deal with climate change.
The UK produces more than 300 million tons of waste every year，enough to fill the Albert Hall every two hours.Most of this is buried in landfill，though a new EU law will require a 50% cut in the practice by 2013.
“We can’t afford to do that any more.We’re running out of space for landfills，”said Ian Arbon，a visiting professor in energy systems at Newcastle University and author of the new report.“We see energy from waste as being one of the brightest hopes of reaching our 2020 aim of getting 15% of our energy requirements from renewable sources.”
There are fewer than 50 small energy from waste factories in the UK now.This compares to several thousand in countries such as Denmark and Germany.
In the past，burning waste was strongly opposed(反对)by local residents who were worried about air pollution.But Arbon said that all the people in the UK could treat waste themselves by using modern methods.“Then you’re treating the waste locally and you’re not having to transport waste large distances，which gets people upset，”he said.
Another way of dealing with waste is to recycle it，but Arbon said，“In this country we have very few recycling factories.”
【文章大意】 关于如何处理生活垃圾这个问题，专家们有各自不同的看法。
1．According to the passage，energy experts hold the opinion that________.
A．using rubbish to pro duce electricity costs too much
B．more land should be used to bury waste
C．waste should be sent for recycling
D．waste should be used to produce green power
解析：选D。细节理解题。根据第一段“Rubbish from people’s daily life should be used to produce green power...”可知，答案为D。
2．Which of the following is NOT a reason for converting waste into energy in the UK
A．That there is limited space for burying waste.
B．That it can help the country meet its renewable energy aims.
C．That waste could be locally treated.
D．That waste could be transported to faraway places.
解析：选D。细节理解题。根据第五段“We’re running out of space for landfills”，第二段“help the country meet its renewable energy aims”和第七段“Then you’re treating the waste locally...”可知，A、B、C三项均为将废物用作能源的原因，而D项不属于这个原因。
3．From the passage we can learn that________.
A．the UK produces more waste every year than any other country in the world
B．Germany does better in environmental protection than the UK
C．some people were against burning waste as it caused air pollution
D．British people are against using waste to produce green power
解析：选C。细节理解题。根据第七段“...burning waste was strongly opposed by local residents who were worried about air pollution.”可知，答案为C。
4．What can be inferred from the passage
A．Electricity won’t be a problem for the UK in the future.
B．People are having arguments on how to deal with waste.
C．The UK will develop new energy sources very soon.
D．Burying waste is common in most countries around the world.
解析：选B。推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，专家们就如何处理垃圾有一些分歧，有人认为回收更好，有人认为生产清洁能源更好，故答案为B。
5．The author’s attitude towards producing energy from waste is________.
A．supportive B．objective
C．critical D．subjective
解析：选B。作者态度题。本文是一则新闻，作者分析了专家关于将废物作为一种能源用来发电的观点，因此作者的态度是客观的，故答案为B。
