名师点评
本文讲述了电脑在人类工作与生活等方面起着越来越大的作用,并告诉人们不必担心不断发展的电脑会威胁人类的安全,因为它永远处于人类的操纵之中。
答案简析
1.B。这里需要一个表语从句的引导词,并在从句中作say的宾语,代替上文的内容。 what从意思和语法上都合乎文意,为正确选项。
2.B。替代前文的people应用they。
3.C。科学家们一直在制造越来越好的电脑,故选择making。
4.C。do a lot of jobs意思为“干许多事情”。其余三个动词皆不合文意。
5.A。词组every day意思为“每天”;some day指将来的“某一天”;形容词everyday意思为“日常的”,合乎文意,为正确选项。
6.A。这里应选择一个副词,表示电脑应用的程度。widely意思是“广泛地”,为正确选项。
7.D。下文中的field是可数名词单数形式,意思为“领域”,而either指两者中的任意一个,不合文意,故选择every。
8.C。make作使役动词时,后面应接不定式的复合结构,且不定式省去to,即make sb. do sth.,故选择make。
9.C。draw意思为“画图”,合乎文意。
10.A。the other day指过去的某一天;one day既可指过去的某一天,也可指将来的某一天。这里讲的是将来的设想,故选one day。
11.A。这是一个时间状语从句。while引导的从句中的动词必须是延续性动词;when引导的从句中,动词既可以是延续性动词,也可以是瞬间动词,故when为正确选项。
12.D。固定结构make use of意思为“利用”。
13.C。in the future意思为“将来”,为正确选项。而in future意思为“今后”,不合文意。
14.C。根据上下文,电脑是不可能取代人类的,而人类应永远是电脑的操纵者,故选always。
15.A。固定结构with the help of意思为“在……的帮助下”。

For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 1 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 2 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 3 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 4 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 5 in the actual stuff of language itself ——words. Taken individually, words have 6 meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 7 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing(退回) to 8 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 9 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 10 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 11 reads.
To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 12 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined(预先确定的) speeD.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 13 the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 14 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization(默读)practically impossible. At first 15 is sacrificed for speeD.But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 16 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 17 reading skill drastically improved after some training. 18 Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 19 the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can 20 a lot more reading material in a short period of time.

参考答案及解析
1—5 DACBA 6—10 CDBAC 11—15 BADCB 16—20 ACBDD
1. D 本句意思是“谁如果想谋得一份差事”。applying需加for, 意思是“申请”;doing做;offering提供; 此三项均不符题意,只有getting (获得)适合。
2. A 本句意为 “快速阅读与理解的能力,是关系到成败的关键所在”。只有quickly与原意吻合。easily(容易地);roughly (粗略地);decidedly(果断地)均与原文内容不符。
3. C 英语中,阅读能力强的人称为good reader,反之,就是poor reader。
根据上下文的能力内容,多数人都属于poor reader,因此选poor(差的)。其它选项不妥。
4. B 此处的意思是“大多数人早期养成了看书慢的习惯”。因此选habits(习惯)。training (训练,培训);situations(形势);custom(风俗习惯)。
5. A 此处说的是“主要的困难在于语言的自身要素,即单词”。combines联合;touches接触;involves包括;这三项的词义与原文不符。而lies与in构成搭配,意为“在于”。
6. C 这里的意思是“如果单独地看这些词,它们并没有什么意义”。some有点;A lot许多;dull单调的。此三项不合题意。只有little(很少)是否定词,合乎逻辑。
7. D 此句意为“然而遗憾的是未受过阅读训练的人就不会意群”。Fortunately幸运地;In fact事实上;Logically合乎逻辑地,均不妥。Unfortunately(不幸地)合乎句义。
8. B 此句意为“在阅读时经常重读(反复读)”因此,选reread重读。reuse再使用;Rewrite改写;recite背诵。
9. A what引导宾语从句。
10. C scales down按比例减少;cuts down削减;此两项不合题意。measures不能与down搭配。只有slow与down搭配的意思“放慢, 减速”,在此合适。
11. B one 指 “任何人”。
12. A 此句意为“训练快速阅读所使用的工具必然与提高阅读速度有关”,因此选accelerator (快读器)。actor演员;amplifier放大器;observer观察者。
13. D 前面的faster决定了应当选than,构成比较级。
14. C make… impossible (使…不可能)。此句意为“快速阅读器迫使你加快阅读速度,使你再也不能逐字阅读,回顾前文内容或者默读”。
15. B 这里的意思是“速读最初会影响理解”,所以选comprehension(理解力)。meaning意义,意思,指词或词组表示的意义;gist大意,要旨;regression回顾。
16. A 与前半句中的not only相呼应,构成句式“不仅……,而且……”,只有选but。
17. C 本句中的主语是第三人称复数,物主代词必然是their。
18. B take与后面的for instance构成短语,意为:“以……例”,其它三项不能构成搭配。
19. D 这里把受训之前与受训之后的阅读速度进行对比,因此选before。
20. D 此处意为:在较短时间内,读完众多的材料。master掌握;go over复习;present呈现,展现;此三项均不妥。只有get through (读完)最恰当。
[双向细目表] 词法 重点词汇: lie in; not only…but; take…for instance; get through.

We know the kiss as a form of expressing affection(情感,喜爱). But long 1 it became it, it was customary in many countries to use it as a(n) 2 of respect. Some native Africans 3 the ground over which a chief(首领)has walkeD.Kissing the hand and foot has been a mark of respect from the 4 times.
The early Romans kissed the mouth or eyes 5 a form of dignified(高贵的) greeting. One Roman emperor allowed his important nobles to kiss his lips, but the 6 important ones had to kiss his hands, and the 7 important ones were 8 allowed to kiss his feet!
Most likely the kiss as a form of affection can be traced back to primitive(上古的,原始的) times when a mother 9 fondle(爱抚) her child, just as a mother 10 today. It only remained for society to 11 this as a custom for expressing affection between arms.
We have evidence(根据) that this was already the 12 by the time of the sixth century, but we can only suppose it was 13 long before that. The first 14 where the kiss became accepted in courtship(求婚) was in France. From France the kiss spread rapidly all over Europe. Russia, which loved to 15 the customs of France, soon adopted it. A kiss from the Tsar(沙皇) became 16 of the highest forms of recognition from the Crown.
In time, the kiss became a part of courtship. 17 marriage customs developed, the kiss became a part of the 18 ceremony (典礼,仪式). Today we regard it as an expression of love and tenderness. 19 there are still many places in the world where the kiss is 20 of formal ceremonies and is intended to show respect.
