阅读理解(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past. There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day. Most people read only the sports pages, the advice or the gossip columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements. Most people don’t take the time to read the real news. They attempt to catch the reader’s interest with picture and exiting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for a good first page story and headlines that make you stop and look. If the headlines are horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough , perhaps you will not go on to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all. Then they turn to the sports page , or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore. They say they get the news on the television now .
More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper? Do you think it is easier to get the news from television? Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?
1. According to the passage , newspapers are _______.
A. more popular today
B. less popular today
C. as popular as before
D. getting more and more popular
2. We can know from the passage that the newspaper editors think the important part of the newspaper is _______.
A. the front page
B. the sports page
C. the headlines
D. the classified advertisement
3. According to the author, which of the following newspaper will most probably attract the reader’s attention ?
A. The ones with interesting pictures and exciting headlines on the front page.
B. The ones with sports news on the front page.
C. The ones with classified ads on the front page.[来源:21世纪教育网]
D. The ones with gossip columns on the front page.
4. According to the passage , most people read all of the following except ______.
A. the sports page B. comics
C. advertisements D. the real news
5. The author’s attitude toward newspaper is ______.
A. sympathetic B. critical
C. negative D. undetermined

3.be taken into consideration .
4. What;keep in mind
5. turn to;in need of
6.been accustomed to walking
7. were worn out
8. searching for[来源:21世纪教育网]
1. B。考查宾语从句。由句式结构知Alice后为and 连接的两个宾语从句,且两个从句都不缺少成分,故都可用that引导,但第一个that 可以省略,第二个that不可省,因此答案为B。
2. B。考查value的用法。“be of great value”等于“be+very valuable”,意为:很有价值;great是形容词不能修饰动词value;B项中,greatly是副词,可以修饰动词,表示很重视。句意为:大家都知道为了改善环境,低碳生活被越来越多的人所重视。故B项符合。21世纪教育网
3. B。It occurred to sb. that. . . “某人突然想到……”。句意:我突然想到我们可以使用电脑做工作。strike“袭击,攻击”;happen“发生”;see“看见,看到”。均不符合句意。
4. A。句意:校长授予所有在场的毕业生每人一份毕业证书,并作了关于目前形势的报告。present“目前的”,常作前置定语;present“在场的”,常作后置定语。and后面是过去式,因此第一个空也要用过去式。由句意可知student应为复数。
5. A。考查形容词辨析。句意为:据说每天那位老人都去公园,坐在他通常坐的椅子上休息。usual“通常的”;common“普通的,常见的”;general“一般的,大体的”;ordinary“普通的,平常的”。
6. A。考查动词辨析。句意为:每人都有一个小礼物,每份礼物上都附有一首适当的诗。attach. . . to. . . “把……系,贴,附在……上”,此处attached to在with复合结构中作宾语补足语。attack“攻击”;attract“吸引”;attribute“把……归因于”。
7. A。考查短语辨析。句意为:在世界上很多国家,早饭是快餐而不是饭,但传统的英国早餐是很丰盛的。rather than“而不是”。more than“不仅仅,超过”;other than“除了”;less than“少于……”。
8. C。keep one’s mind on sth. “专心于,集中精力于”;it is+时间段+before“要过多久才会做某事”。句意为“现在玛丽必须专心于她的医学学习,所以要再过几年她才会考虑婚姻的事情”。
9. B。考查“祈使句+and+陈述句”句式。祈使句用动词原形开头,相当于由if引导的条件状语从句。
10. A。考查非谓语动词。句意为:被认为在最近的理科竞赛中表现最好的这三位学生被授予总数达21 000美元的奖学金。主语与judge间为被动关系,且动作发生在过去,故用过去分词作原因状语;total“总计”,用v. -ing形式作定语,故选A。
11. B。manage后面只跟不定式,不跟动名词作宾语,即:manage to do sth. “设法完成某事”,因此只有B正确。
12. C。考查词义辨析。句意:她总是对她的雇员又礼貌,又体贴,我们都很欣赏她的做法。considering“就……而言”;considerable“相当大/多的”;considerate“体贴的,周到的”,符合句意,considered“被认为……”。
13. B。考查动词辨析。句意为:尽管他自称精通英语,但有时感觉要找到一些汉语习语的合适翻译是很难的。claim“宣称”;announce“宣告,通知”;declare“宣布”;confirm“进一步确定”。
14. A。考查动词辨析。句意为:人们每天需要八小时的睡眠,但这是否正确还有待于证明。It remains to be proved...“……有待于证明”。stay“保持,停留”;live“居住,生存”;continue“继续”。
【解题关键】文章开头介绍了报纸今非昔比的状况,接着围绕“报纸在今天受到不好待遇”展开了话题。 解答的关键是了解全文,把握作者的观点。
1. B 细节理解题。关键是理解文章的第一句话“Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past”我们得知,报纸的地位已大不如从前。
2. A 推理判断题。文章开头提到新闻往往采取一些图片和令人兴奋的标题来吸引读者注意,而这些技巧一般被用在报纸的头版。
3. A 推理判断题。新闻往往采取一些图片和令人兴奋的标题来吸引读者注意。
4. D 细节理解题。文章提到“most people read only the sports pages, the advice or the gossip columns , the comics,and perhaps the classified advertisements . Most people don’t take the time to read the real news .”我们具体了解一下就可以找到答案了。
5. A 主旨大意题。由文章的第一句可知作者对报纸的今非昔比的状况似乎有点感慨。作者认为报纸应该受到人们更多的关注。主要是看对全文的理解。

Some rain must fall. For many people in the world today those rainy days take the form of financial problems. If you have found yourself in such a position,you may be wondering what you should do in a difficult time. Through this text,you are given some tips and advice that you can use if you are facing some sort of financial problems or difficulties.
The first step that you will want to take when you find yourself in a budget crunch(预算短缺) is to make sure that you take the time to contact your money lenders. By making contact with your money lenders,you will open up the lines of communication. In this day and age,the typical money lender is going to be willing to deal with you and work with you. As long as you are proactive,you are likely to find that a lender or other creditors will be willing to work out a payment plan that will work for you.
The next step that you will want to take is to make a serious budget for the future. One of the reasons that people run into trouble in many instances rests in the fact that they simply do not take the time to budget and plan. By planning and budgeting,you will find that you will have a better chance of avoiding financial problems and difficulties in the future.
A third step that you will want to take when it comes to dealing with a financial crunch is that you should start to eliminate some of your credit cards. Many people do end up facing financial issues because they have collected far too much debt on credit cards. In this day and age,people really do tend to overuse credit cards in many instances.
Finally,when it comes to dealing with and resolving a financial crunch,you will want to make sure that you eliminate some of your unnecessary spending at least for the time being. While you understandably like to buy things that are entertaining,nice and special if you are facing financial issues,it is important to return to the basics until you get rid of a financial crunch.
1.The writer wrote this text in order to ________.
A.give readers some advice on how to deal with financial problems

A.to stay in contact with those who lend you money
B.to make a careful plan for your future life
C.to give up some of your credit cards
D.to cook our own meal at home instead of eating out
3.The underlined word “eliminate ”in the fourth paragraph most probably means ________in this text.
A.build up B.get rid of
C.burn up D.show up
4.What can your money lenders do for you?
A.The money lender can cut off some of his interest for you.
B.The money lender will offer you a certain discount when you pay.

Teachers using red pens to mark students'work could be harming their psyche(心理)as the color is too aggressive,according to education strategies drafted by an Australian state government.
The “Good Mental Health Rocks” kit,which was distributed this month to about 30 schools in Queensland State,offers strategies such as “Don't mark in red pens(which can be seen as aggressi-ve)—use a different color.”Other tips include structuring time for peer tutoring every day,apologizing to students when necessary and asking students to conduct a “personal skill audit(审查)”where they focus on their individual strengths rather than their weaknesses.
The kit,designed to help Queensland teachers address mental health problems in the classroom,suggests social and emotional well-being has been linked to young people's schooling,among other things. The education aid has sparked a row in parliament(议会),with deputy opposition leader Mark McArdle calling it “kooky,loony,loopy lefty policies.”
But Health Minister Stephen Robertson,whose department devised the kit,said youth suicide was a serious issue.“If mental health professionals determine that as one of a number of strategies teachers should consider,and then I'll support them every day,”he told reporters recently.“This is not a matter for ridicule;this is serious”.
According to some Australian mental health groups,the greatest number of people with mental illness is aged between 18 and 24 years,with 14 percent of Australian children and adolescents suffering from some sort of illness.Boys are slightly more likely to experience mental health problems than girls and depression is one of the most common conditions among young people and increases during adolescence,the website of mental health group Mindframe said.
5.In this text the writer seems to suggest that ________.
A.teachers should not mark students' work in red pens
B.teachers should let peers to help their classmates every day21世纪教育网

6.The “Good Mental Health Rocks” kit was designed for the purpose of ________.
A.developing the students' strengths instead of weaknesses
B.improving the students'health when they are at school
C.taking care of the students'mental health in the classroom
D.improving the teachers'teaching strategies in the classroom
7.From this text we can infer that ________.
A.a great many of people kill themselves every year
B.different people hold different opinions about the kit
C.students' mental health wasn't paid attention to before
D.red pens kill many young people every year at school
8.What's the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.Most of the young people in Australia suffer from some kind of disease.
B.More and more people are suffering from depression in Australia.
C.Most children in Australia are in a poor state of health.
D.Adolescents are much easier to suffer from mental problems.

阅读下列短文,根据短文内容选择最佳答案。
A
The Internet has led to a huge increase in credit-card(信用卡)fraud. Your card information could even be for sale in an illegal web site(非法网站).
Web sites offering cheap goods and services should be regarded with care.
On-line shoppers who enter their credit-card information may never receive the goods they thought they bought. The thieves then go shopping with your card number—or sell the information over the Internet. Computers hackers(黑客) have broken down security(安全)systems,raising questions about the safety of cardholder information. Several months ago,25,000 customers of CD Universe,an on-line music retailer(零售商),were not lucky. Their names,addresses and credit-card numbers were posted on a Web site after the retailer refused to pay US $157,828 to get back the information.
Credit-card firms are now fighting against on-line fraud. Mastercard is working on plans for Web-only credit card,with a lower credit limit. The card could be used only for shopping on-line. However,there are a few simple steps you can take to keep from being cheated (欺骗).
Ask about your credit-card firm’s on-line rules: Under British law,cardholders have to pay the first US $78 of any fraudulent(欺骗性的)spending.
And shop only at secure sites; Send your credit-card information only if the Web site offers advanced secure system. If the security is in place,a letter will appear in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen. The Website address may also start https://—the extra“s” stands for secure. If in doubt,give your credit-card information over the telephone.
Keep your password(密码)safe: Most on-line sites require a user name and password before placing an order. Treat your passwords with care.
36.What do most people worry about the Internet
according to this passage?
A.A lot of stolen credit-cards were sold on the Internet.
B.Fraud on the Internet.
C.Many Web sites are destroyed.
D.Many illegal Web sites are on the Internet.
37.What is the meaning of “fraud”?
A.Cheating. B.Sale. C.Payment. D.Safety.
38.How can the thieves get the information of the credit card?
A.The customers give them the information.
B.The thieves steal the information from Web sites.
C.The customers sell the information to them.
D.The thieves buy the information from credit-card firms.
39.How many pieces of advice does the passage give to you?
A.Four. B.Three. C.Five. D.Six.
40.You are shopping on the site: http://www.shopping.com and you want to buy a TV set,
what does this article suggest to do?
A.Order the TV set at once.
B.Do not buy the TV set on this site.
C.E-mail the site your credit-card information.
D.Tell the site your password and buy the TV set for you.

As China develops,the Internet’s presence is inescapable. But some get addicted to the Internet. 13-year-old Xiao Yi paid a high price for it. He rode an elevator to the top of a 24-storey building and then jumped to his death. His suicide note explained he wanted to enter another life to meet the characters from the online games he played constantly,sometimes days in a row. “He had a kind of fixation.”Xiao Yi’s father says,“He threw himself into an imaginary world.”
Internet addiction got attention in China when stories such as Xiao Yi’s popped up in China state-run press. Internet addicts died from exhaustion after spending days online or murdered others in search of virtual(虚幻的)possessions. Public anger over these incidents spurred the opening of China’s first Internet addiction treatment center.
The clinic’s treatment might seem cruel. But it’s a popular choice for worried parents.
“Ever since our door was opened,every bed has been full.” says the center’s director. 20 at a time come for medical treatment and counseling. They are also kept busy with activities,designed to take their attention away from the attraction of computers.
“I’m confident this will work or I wouldn’t have come here,” explains this college student. Critics aren’t so sure. Some argue the government is exaggerating (夸大的) concerns about Internet addiction as an excuse to ban Internet cafes and game sites. But for China’s estimated 2 million Internet addicts,the temptation of the wired world is a real problem.
41.The best title of the passage may be ________.
A.China opens Internet addiction treatment centers
B.China battles web addiction21世纪教育网
C.China bans Internet cafes and game sites
D. China designs to take teenagers away from the temptation of computers
42.According to the first paragraph,Xiao Yi killed himself because ________.
A.he was unable to continue with his studies
B.he thought he could play computer games in another world
C.he thought he could meet the persons in another world
D. he was in a puzzle about his homework
43.The underlined word “spurred” in the second paragraph means ________.
A.forced B.improved
C.prevented D. inspired
44.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.All the people agree that the treatment center should be built.
B.It is estimated that there are two million Internet addicts in China.
C.Many worried parents chose to send their children to Internet addiction treatment center.
D. Some Internet addicts died from exhaustion after spending days online.
45.We can infer from the passage that ________.
A.China has settled the problem of Internet addiction
B.only juniors get addicted to the Internet
C.only parents are worried about the problem mostly
D. no practical methods have been found to completely solve the Internet addiction
C
A woman renewing her driver’s license at the County Clerk’s office was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.
“What I mean is, ”explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a. . . ?”
“Of course I have a job, ” said Emily. “I’m a mother. ”
“We don’t list‘mother’ as an occupation. . . ‘housewife’covers it,” said the recorder.
One day I found myself in the same situation. The clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation?”she asked.
The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations. ”
The clerk paused, her ballpoint pen frozen in mid-air.
I repeated the title slowly, and then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.
“Might I ask, ”said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”
Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree? ), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money. ”
There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.
As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants—ages 13, 7, and 3.
Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model(a 6-month-old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.
I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother”.
Motherhood… What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.

A. The woman felt ashamed to admit what her job was.
B. The recorder was impatient and rude.

B. Indifferent.
C. Puzzled.

48. How did the author feel when describing her job to the clerk?
A. Calm. B. Panic-stricken.
C. Confident. D. Cool.
49. Why did the woman clerk show more respect for the author?
A. Because the author cared little about rewards.
B. Because she admired the author’s research work in the lab.
C. Because she thought the author did admirable work.
D. Because the writer did something she had little knowledge of.
50. What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?
A. To show how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it.
B. To argue that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect.
C. To show that the author had a grander job than Emily.
D. To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.

What will power your house in the future?Nuclear,wind,or solar power?According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT) in the US,it might be leaves—but artificial(人造的)ones.
Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. It is known as photosynthesis(光合作用).Now researchers have found a way to imitate this seemingly simple process.
The artificial leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his colleagues at MIT can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts(催化剂).Similar to natural leaves,it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell,which uses those two materials to produce electricity,located either on top of a house or beside the house.
Though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card,scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries.“One can imagine villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology,”said Nocera at a conference of the American Chemical Society.
The artificial leaf is not a new idea. The first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use. The new leaf,by contrast,is made of cheap materials,easy to use and highly stable. In laboratory studies,Nocera showed that an artificial leaf prototype(原型)could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.
The wonderful improvements come from Nocera’s recent discovery of several powerful,new and inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now,the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Besides,the device can run in whatever water is available;that is,it doesn’t need pure water. This is important for some countries that don’t have access to pure water.
With the goal to “make each home its own power station” and “give energy to the poor”,scientists believe that the new technology could be widely used in developing countries,especially in India and rural China.
51.Which of the following orders correctly shows how the artificial leaf is used to produce electricity?
a.artificial leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygen
b.the hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cell
c.the artificial leaves are put in water
d.the fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity
A.c,b,a,d B.c,a,b,d
C.b,c,a,d D.c,a,d,b
52.Which of the following statements about new artificial leaves is NOT WRONG according to the article?
A.They are inexpensive but unstable.
B.They are as efficient at carrying out photosynthesis as natural leaves.
C.They can work only in pure water.
D.They need several catalysts to help them work efficiently.
53.The purpose of the scientists at MIT in developing the new artificial leaf is to________.
A.build up more power stations in the world
B.provide cheaper energy for developing countries
C.offer people in developing countries access to pure water
D.gain a deeper understanding of the photosynthesis process
54.The main idea of this passage is ________.
A.an introduction to the history of artificial leaves
B.an invention copying photosynthesis
C.giving energy to the poor
D.a mixture of water power and solar energy
55.The underlined word “imitate” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”.

When Percy Spencer invented the microwave, it changed the world greatly. People would no longer have to wait endless hours while cooking their food in an old-fashioned oven. Instead, using the microwave has allowed them to cook food in just seconds.
According to the medical website mercola.com, just about “ninety percent of Americans have microwaves in their homes”. However, is this convenient invention as perfect as it seems?
There are many reports of microwaves changing the original qualities of the food, which can cause cancer as well as changes in the body.
“Electro magnetic (电磁的) radiation harms food, and changes substances cooked in it to dangerous products,” Dr. Lita Lee—chemist, nutritionist, author and lecturer —wrote in her book, Health Effects of Microwave Radiation—Microwave Ovens (1991).
However, the microwave is not only for food; microwaves are used in medicine as well. For example, it warms heating pads and used to warm blood used in transfusions(输血).
Norma Levitt, a hip surgery patient in an Oklahoma hospital (1991), died after blood being heated for her transfusion was altered in the microwave. A lawsuit followed and because of this incident, blood is no longer heated in the microwave.
Regardless of what has happened, big companies still claim that microwaves are great machines that have caused trouble to “few people” and have had “few consequences”. However, people should decide if saving a few minutes is more important than preventing cancerous cells from entering the body.
Dr. Jonathan Wright, Medical Director of Tahoma Clinic in Renton, Washington, considers the microwave unhealthy and recommends some alternatives.
“Try eating a lot of your food, like vegetables, uncooked. Ideally, at least one?third of the food in your diet should be uncooked, since this is the form that will give you the maximum amount of nutrients. If you do want to cook some food or heat up leftovers, use your stove(火炉),” he said.21世纪教育网
These alternative cooking styles may take a little time from your day, but can help you lead a healthier and more stable lifestyle. These methods will allow you to get the most nutrients from your food, as well.
Health is not valued till sickness comes. In today’s fast-paced modern world, we should have more consideration towards peoples’ health.

33.B 作者参加慈善活动,目的是向人们传播慈善,故此处用spread符合语境。
34.C 作者最初只是想从野风信子那里得到一些微笑的卡片,而结果却收到了那么多礼物,receive表示“收到,得到”。accept 表示主观接受某人或某物。

To: Tom @ hotmail.com
Subject: Cancel travelling to Beijing
Dear Tom,
We made an appointment to go on a trip to Beijing together next weekend, but I am very sorry to inform you that I cannot go with you this time. Last night, my mother suddenly fell ill and my father and I were so worried that we took her to hospital. The doctor checked her over and said she was over-worked and needed to stay at home and rest for a week. My father has to go on a business trip next week, so I have to look after my mother during that time.
Anyway, we will have many more chances to visit Beijing. Shall we make it on July 14 and July 15, when I will have some time available?
Thank you for your understanding. I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Old Computers Make for Unhappy Workers—Survey[来源:21世纪教育网]
LONDON (Reuters)—Dealing with the dissatisfaction of ageing and unreliable office computers leads to workers’ unhappiness and more sick-leave, a survey showed on Wednesday.
A survey carried out by care4free.net of over 2 700 European office workers from the UK,France and Germany found that workplace dissatisfaction increased greatly with the age of the computer equipment.
“We do know that job satisfaction is falling in Britain and in most advanced nations,”said Stephen White,a researcher from the Work Foundation.“The actual reasons for this are the subject of very heated discussion. It’s certainly one interesting theory that technology may be the cause of this in some way,”White added.
A quarter of these using outdated computers in Britain said they were “quite” or “very dissatisfied” with their everyday job compared to 16 percent of those who had enjoyed an advantage from up-to-date technology.
The survey also said that among workers dealing with outdated equipment,there was a 35 percent greater probability they would take six or more days of sick-leave per year compared with the average worker. In France,where more workers use older computers,the probability jumped to 55 percent.
Results also showed that women in the three countries were more likely to be using outdated equipment. In the UK,where more workers have up-to-date computers than in the other countries surveyed,the number of women using old equipment doubled that of men.
White pointed out that there were two sides to this problem,saying that continuously having to deal with new technology and equipment can also be a source of worry.“Old and faulty equipment is a major cause of office dissatisfaction. There is no question about it,but you also have to say that the frequent change of equipment is also,or could be,a main cause of dissatisfaction.”
1.How many office workers using old computers in Britain expressed their dissatisfaction?
A. 16%. B. 25%. C. 35%. D. 55%.
2. According to White,why were the women surveyed more likely to use old computers?
A. Most office workers use old computers.
B. They do some of their work with computers.
C. Dealing with new equipment can cause anxiety.
D. They are easier to be satisfied with new technology.
3. What is the subject of the news story?
A. Poor working conditions in offices.
B. Research work of the Work Foundation.
C. Influence of technology in the workplace.
D. Different attitudes to old computers.

8.C 本题考查delay的用法。题意:你今天必须归还我的书,没有任何向后拖延的理由了。delay“延迟,拖延”符合句意。故选择C项。

Then, the writing point of the pen should 11 the ink to flow evenly (均匀地) while the pen remains in touch with the paper. 12 will make it possible for you to create a 13 line of writing. The point should also be sensitive enough to 14 ink from running when the pen is lifted. A point that does not block the 15 may leave drops of ink, 16 you pick the pen up and put it down again.
17 ,the pen should make a thick, dark line. Fine-line pens may 18 bad handwriting, but fine, delicate lines do not command 19 next to printed text, as, 20 ,a signature on a printed letter. A broader line, on the other hand, gives an impression of confidence and authority (权威).

1.weighed 2.suitable moment 3.to her own measure 4.guarantee to deliver 5.shape teenagers’ character21世纪教育网
1.A 本题考查动词与介词搭配辨析。句意:我们只是权衡利弊。表示“权衡,衡量”用weigh up,故选择A项。
2.A 本题考查guarantee的用法。分析句子可知,guarantee后接从句,此处引导词应用that。故选择A项。
3.B 本题考查词形辨析。句意:这个男孩瘦弱,但他能举起一块重20千克的石头。分析句子可知,weigh在此句中为不及物动词,没有被动语态,故首先排除C项;weigh为动词原形;weight名词,“重量”;空格处应为现在分词作定语,相当于定语从句which weighs...。故选择B项。
4.B 本题考查词义辨析。句意:我到那儿后你能保证给我一份工作吗?你知道,我必须得靠工作来支付我的学费。表示“向某人保证某事”用guarantee sb.sth.。provide “提供”,用于provide sb. with sth.;arrange “安排”,用于arrange sth. for sb.;apply “申请”,用于apply for。故选择B项。
5. A 本题考查词义辨析。句意:父母的行为比他们的言辞在塑造孩子们的品质上起着更重要的作用。表示“塑造”用shape build建造;form形成;make制造,制作。故选择A项。
6.C be superior to sth. in...在某方面比……好。
7.B 句意:他在公司里会起什么样的作用还不确定。
8.B 本题考查副词辨析。根据句子结构,空格处应用一个副词,只有though可用作副词,意为“然而”。although尽管;while当……时,然而;but但是。
9.C 本题考查形容词词义辨析。句意:我们的新家对我来说很方便。因为只要5分钟我就能到办公室。reasonable合理的;comfortable舒适的;convenient便利的;available可获得的。
10.B 本题考查短语辨析。句意:吃太多脂肪有可能会导致心脏病,并引发高血压。result from由……导致;contribute to是……的原因;attend to照顾,处理;devote to致力于,奉献。
1.B 句意:当现代家庭和办公室内打印机的使用意味着将几乎没有什么东西是手写的时候,人们就忽视了对钢笔的使用。many很多的;pleasant安逸的,舒适的;important重要的。这三项都与Most people give little thought to the pens they write with不符,也不符合现实。
2.A look外表,表面;reason原因;value价值;advantage优点,长处。现实中人们仅为了追求外表好看而买钢笔。
3.A 人们并不知道为什么一旦使用钢笔时就感到别扭。once意为“一旦……”,是表条件含义的连词。其余三项都不能体现购买钢笔的初衷与使用钢笔的现实之间的矛盾。
4.D 句意:只要遵循以下几点,你将发现买一支你喜欢的钢笔并不是什么难事。convenient 方便的;practical现实的,实际的;strange奇怪的。
5.B 句意:首先,手中握着一支钢笔感觉比较舒服时,使用起来也很容易。[来源:21世纪教育网]
6.C 作者认为钢笔的厚度是决定舒适程度的最重要的特征。take拿走;find发现;determine决定;seek寻求,搜索。这里是分词作后置定语,修饰characteristic。根据句意,应选C。
7.D 句意:如果你有一只较大的手,并且手指较粗,你或许倾向于用一支粗大的钢笔。与前文相对。
8.A 参见7题解析,此处选A。prefer“喜欢,偏爱,倾向”,符合题意。
9.B 前文提及钢笔的粗细,后文说的是其长度问题,应是顺应承接的关系,表示钢笔的长度也影响使用的舒适度。其余三项明显不能表示这一点。
10.C 句意:钢笔太长的话就很容易让人感到顶端过于沉重,写字时也不稳定。承接上句,论述的是钢笔的长度问题,所以其他三项不正确。
11.B change 改变;allow 允许;reduce减少,降低;press挤压。根据常识我们知道一支好的钢笔其笔尖应该是能让墨水流畅地流出。只有B项能够表达这一层意思。
12.C 这里考查代词的用法。this 指代前文提到的内容(即12空前...,the writing point of the pen should 11 the ink to flow evenly while the pen remains in touch with the paper.部分)。
13.D smooth “平滑的,流畅的”,这里用来形容钢笔的功用,与整个第三段的内容是一致的。rough 粗糙的,大致的。
14.A 作者认为一支好的钢笔其笔尖应该灵敏到一旦笔尖离开纸面就控制住墨水的挥洒,而不是肆意的滴落在纸上。prevent 阻止;free 使自由,释放;protect 保护;remove除去,移开。[来源:21世纪教育网]
15.C 句意:笔尖若是不能阻止墨水的流动就会使墨水“滴”在纸上。这与上句意思是一致的。 只有C项符合句意。
16.B 该题考查连词的用法。as“当……的时候”。根据常识我们知道:只有在(写完字后)收笔时笔尖不再滴墨(才是一支好笔)。这与第15空含义一致。[来源:21世纪教育网]
17.D meanwhile同时;generally一般地;afterwards后来;finally最后。文中作者论述了钢笔的一系列优点,D项表示该段论述的是最后一方面。
18.D 作者认为一支好用的钢笔能够弥补拙劣的书法。show up显摆,炫耀;differ from与……不同;break down 垮台,破裂,坏掉;compensate for补偿,偿还。
19.A attention 注意;support 支持;respect 尊重;admission许可。作者认为优美的书法足以引起人们丝毫不亚于对印刷文字的关注
——好的书法一样能够使人给予重视。
20.B 此题考查短语的意义辨析。at most 至多;for example例如;in brief简言之;on purpose故意地。从后文看,作者是以签名为例来说明书法的重要性。

1.B 本题考查介词辨析。介词in和within要与表示一段时间的状语连用,多用于将来时;介词during后面也要接一段时间,而且动词一般要用持续性动词,故本题选B。
2.C 本题考查短语辨析。题意:“恐怕伍德先生4点钟后才能见你。”“噢,既然那样,我就不等了。”表示“既然那样”用in that case。no doubt无疑地;after all毕竟,终究;in this way用这种方法。
3.C 句意:美洲印第安人约占美国人口的5%。A项为“填充”;B项为“培养,抚养”;C项为“组成,占”;D项为“建立”。
4.D 本题考查词义辨析。题意:如果她们心地不善良,那么她们美丽的外表就仅仅是为了遮掩丑陋的灵魂。表示“仅仅”用merely。certainly当然;usually通常;especially特别,尤其。
5.D本题考查介词辨析。依据题意可知,空格后you and me是两者之间,故用between。among用于三者或者三者以上的“之间”。
6.A 本题考查介词短语辨析。题意:当被询问失窃的钱时,他不敢看他父母的眼睛。表示“注视,看”用look into。take up拿起,开始从事;occur to想起,想到;put into使进入。
1.B 根据下一句可知空姐想让作者“换”座位。本段下文提到还有一个空座,也是暗示。
2.C 结合句中的only一词可判断这是惟一剩下的座位。
3.B 根据上一句的描写可知作者不愿意和这样一个女孩坐在一起,所以第一反应是想让自己坐在那个地方“没门儿”。
4.A 作者最终改变了初衷,“决定”坐在那个座位上。前面提到作者最初不想那么做,因此B项不恰当。作者并没有自己事先承诺,所以最后一项不正确。
5.D she had been in a car accident. 曾经遭遇一场车祸。如用happen应为had happened to be. . . 故选D。
6. A 根据上一段中对她的描写可推断她此行的目的是“治疗”。
7.C 作者很快就“意识”到她由于胳膊上打着绷带,不能自己吃东西。A项表示“知道”,语意不恰当;recognize表示“认出”,语句不通顺。
8.B 她不能给自己“喂”东西,下一句中的feed her也提供了暗示。A项有一定的干扰性,但根据juice一词可知应该用drink,而不是eat,所以此项不太恰当。
9.A offer to do sth. 表示“主动提出做某事”,下文中的“I offered to help her eat. . . ”也提供了线索。
10.A 作者认为这么做似乎“没有礼貌”。喂食理应靠近,所以C项不合理;前面提到食物端上来之后,作者意识到她无法吃东西才决定帮她,并不是一见面就想提供帮助,因此D项不恰当。
11.D 作者和她只是萍水相逢。文中没有交代作者的性别,因此难以确定是性别差异引起的尴尬;作者本身也是“乘客”,所以C项不正确。
12.C Kathy的需要比自己的不适更“重要”。A项表示 “非同寻常的”,指的是与以往不同,语意不恰当。
13.B 此处是让步状语从句,表示“虽然”。即尽管她感觉接受别人的照顾不舒服,但还是顺从了。
14.D 此处did代指accepted,为了避免用词重复。
15.A 作者为能帮助别人而内心感到无比“温暖”。下一段中的love一词也提供了暗示。cheer表示“欢呼”,语意不太恰当。21世纪教育网
16.C 结合本句中的the five-hour trip可知强调的是“时间”。自己坐在座位上不需要花费“能量;精力”。
17.D my comfort zone指的是my seat,即作者原来的座位。上文提到作者离开了自己的座位,坐到了另外一个地方,所以用beyond,表示“在……另一边”。
18.D 作者字里行间是对自己的做法表示肯定,前三项都表示否定意义,可排除。
19. A that keep us separate是定语从句,修饰先行词fears。由于恐惧,我们无法进行沟通,被这堵无形的墙“分开”。此处与borders相呼应。
20.B 当我们“跨越”恐惧的界限,伸出温暖的双手时,就可以生活在一个更广阔更有价值的世界中。happen to do sth. 表示“碰巧发生某事”,不符合语意;D项在文中没有信息支持。

阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2.5分,满分20分)
A
The hippopotamus is, without doubt, one of the strangest-looking animals in the world. The ancient Greeks named this large animal “hippopotamus,” which means “river horse.” But hippos are not related to horses.
Found only in Africa, hippos come in two varieties. The small pygmy hippo lives in rain forests. And the large common hippo lives mostly in grassland around rivers and lakes.
The common hippo is the third largest land mammal in the world. It is lighter than the largest of the white rhinos and the elephant, the heaviest land animal. The elephant is almost twice as heavy as the common hippo.
In the past, the hippo has been killed for meat, for sport, and for its tough skin. But today, in preserves only, the common hippo has increased in number. The hippo has few predators(天敌) other than lions and leopards that sometimes catch young hippos. There were many hippos killed by man during the last half of the 19th century, when Africa was being explored and settled. And a great many hippos and other animals were killed by poachers(偷猎者) during the fighting in Uganda in the 1970s.The hippo is strong, though. It resists disease and has a long lifetime, living 20 to 40 years in the wild.
Hippos spend most of their time in the water, only moving onto land at night to eat. By feeding at night, their skin is protected from the sun and the dry air that can cause a serious loss of moisture(水分).
Because of its large body, the common hippo may appear awkward on land, but it can move very fast and is considered by many to be the most dangerous animal in Africa. By spending their days in the water and their nights on land, hippos make it difficult for scientists to study them, so there is still much to be learned about hippos. The huge hippos, with their big mouths and tiny ears, have always fascinated humans. As scientists learn more about them, they become even more fascinating.
1. We can learn from the passage that hippos _ _______.
A. have no connection with horses
B. can be found all over the world
C. are good-looking animals
D. live mostly in rain forests
2. Which of the following may threaten the lives of hippos?
A. Rhinos. B. Water.
C. Lions. D. Elephants.
3. Why do hippos feed themselves at night?
A. It is cooler at night.
B. The air at night is fresher.
C. They try to avoid their predators.
D. The poachers don't come out at night.
4. Why is it difficult for scientists to study the hippo?
A. It can move fast.21世纪教育网
B. Its number is decreasing.
C. It is the most dangerous animal.
D. It doesn't appear on land during the day.
B
COOL INVENTIONS
For light sleepers
Millions of people have trouble falling asleep each night, which is why Light Sleeper was created.
Developed in the United Kingdom, LightSleeper's makers say it can help a person fall asleep and also help a person fall back to sleep after waking up in the middle of the night.
LightSleeper works by projecting (投射) a light onto the ceiling while the person is lying down. The idea is to watch the light, because the light moving in a circle has a relaxing effect.
One of the advantages of the product is that it won't disturb other people in the room. The product can be easily moved and will switch itself off after 30 minutes to save power.
Stop the snoring(打鼾)
Here's a new product designed to slow down the frequency and level of your snoring. The Snore Stopper has a sensitive instrument that will detect when you're snoring. Once it does that, it will send a very mild electronic signal to your wrist. This consequently changes your sleeping position to stop you from snoring. The Snore Stopper won't cause any damage to your body.
Get your true colors
Photoshop features a pen that will copy the color settings of what you are monitoring onscreen to use as a color in your program. Now an off-line product allows you to pick a color when not using the computer software.21世纪教育网
The Color Picker is a concept pen. After placing the pen against an object, the user just presses the scan button. Color sensors(感应器) inside the pen send information to a box, which then mixes red, green and blue to produce the desired ink color.

3.A 细节理解题。由倒数第二段可知,河马晚上才出来吃草,是因为晚上没有太阳、温度低,身体内的水分蒸发慢。
4.D 推理判断题。由最后一段中的By spending their days in the water and their nights on land, hippos make it difficult for scientists to study them.可知,科学家们对河马的研究比较困难是因为白天他们很难发现河马。

6. D 细节理解题。根据第二部分中的Here’s a new product designed to slow down the frequency and level of your snoring.和This consequently changes your sleeping position to stop you from snoring.可知,这种止鼾器能在改变睡姿的情况下减少打鼾的频率和程度。

A
Humans are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds outside of our own. We take delight in the existence of creatures and even whole societies beyond our everyday lives.
This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scientists have made to find out whether life of some kind exists on Mars, and the popularity of fantasy(幻想) literature or movies like The Lord of the Rings. This sense of wonder draws us to each other,to the world around us, and to the world of make-believe. But have we gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy that we are missing the pleasure of other worlds that already exist all around us?21世纪教育网
Human beings,as biologists have suggested,possess an inborn desire to connect with and understand other life forms. However, people,especially in big cities,often lead rather isolated lives. In a study of British schoolchildren,it was found that children by age eight were much more familiar with characters from television shows and video games than with common wildlife. Without modern technology,a small pond could be an amazing world filled with strange and beautiful plants,insects,birds,and animals. When we lack meaningful interaction(交互)with the world around us, and sometimes even with our families and friends,we seek to understand and communicate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a computer screen.
The world of make-believe is not necessarily bad. But when the world of fantasy becomes the only outlet(出路) for our sense of wonder,then we are really missing something. We are missing a connection with the living world. Other wonderful worlds exist all around us. But even more interesting is that if we look closely enough,we can see that these worlds, in a broad sense, are really part of our own.
36. The popularity of The Lord of the Rings proves .
A. the close connection between man and the fantasy world
B. the wonderful achievements of fantasy literature
C. the fine taste of moviegoers around the world
D. the general existence of the sense of curiosity
37. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3?
A. People are far less familiar with the world of fantasy.
B. The world around us could serve as a source of wonder.
C. The world of fantasy can be mirrored by a small and lively pond.
D. Modern technology prevents us from developing our sense of wonder.
38. If our sense of wonder relies totally on the world of make-believe, we will .
A. fail to appreciate the joy in our lives
B. be confused by the world of make-believe
C. miss the chance to recognize the fantasy world
D. be trapped by other worlds existing all around us
39. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To show us the hidden beauty in our world.
B. To warn us not to get lost in the fantasy world.
C. To argue against the misuse of the sense of wonder.
D. To discuss the influence of the world of make-believe.
B
Imagine, one day, getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours, and then, after a full day of work, going back home to Beijing and having dinner there.
Sounds unusual, doesn’t it? But it’s not that unrealistic, with the development of China’s high-speed railway system. And that’s not all. China has an even greater high-speed railway plan—to connect the country with Southeast Asia, and eventually Eastern Europe.
China is negotiating to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 10 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore.
China has proposed three such projects. The first would possibly connect Kunming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia. Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany. The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe.
If China’s plan for the high-speed railway goes forward, people could zip over from London to Beijing in under two days.
The new system would still follow China’s high-speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes.
China’s bullet train (高速客车),the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou, already has the world’s fastest average speed. It covers 1 069 kilometers in about three hours.
Of course, there are some technical challenges to overcome. There are so many issues that need to be settled, such as safety, rail gauge (轨距),maintenance of railway tracks. So, It’s important to pay attention to every detail.
But the key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion.
China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital investment. Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development.
It’ll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better communication among those countries.
For China, such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources, but would also help develop China’s far west. We foresee that in the coming decades, millions of people will migrate to the western regions, where the land is empty and resources unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all. And they’ll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries.
40. China’s new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because .
A. China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regions
B. China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various ways
C. China will develop its railway system and communication with other countries21世纪教育网
D. the foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation, business and tourism
41. According to the passage, the greatest challenge to the new high-speed railway plan is .
A. technical issues
B. safety of the system
C. financial problems
D. maintenance of railway tracks
42. Which of the following words best describes the author’s attitude towards China’s high-speed railway plan?
A. Critical. B. Reserved.
C. Doubtful. D. Positive.
43. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
A. New Railway Standards
B. Big Railway Dreams
C. High-speed Bullet Trains
D. International Railway Network
C
Every day we experience one of the wonders of the world around us without even realizing it. It is not the amazing complexity of television, nor the impressive technology of transport. The universal wonder we share and experience is our ability to make noises with our mouths, and so transmit ideas and thoughts to each other’s minds. This ability comes so naturally that we tend to forget what a miracle(奇迹)it is.
Obviously, the ability to talk is something that marks humans off from animals. Of course, some animals have powers just as amazing. Birds can fly thousands of miles by observing positions of the stars in the sky in relation to the time of day and year. In nature’s talent show, humans are a species of animal that have developed their own special act. If we reduce it to basic terms, it’s an ability for communicating information to others by varying sounds we make as we breathe out.
Not that we don’t have other powers of communication. Our facial expressions convey our emotions, such as anger, or joy, or disappointment. The way we hold our heads can indicate to others whether we are happy or sad. This is so-called “body language”.Bristling(直立的)fur is an unmistakable warning of attack among many animals. Similarly, the bowed head or drooping tail shows a readiness to take second place in any animal gathering.
Such a means of communication is a basic mechanism that animals, including human beings, instinctively acquire and display. Is the ability to speak just another sort of instinct? If so, how did human beings acquire this amazing skill? Biologists can readily indicate that particular area of our brain where speech mechanisms fun_ction, but this doesn’t tell us how that part of our bodies originated in our biological history.
44. According to the passage, the wonder we take for granted is .
A. our ability to use language
B. the miracle of technology
C. the amazing power of nature
D. our ability to make noises with mouth
45. What feature of “body language” mentioned in the passage is common to both humans and animals?
A. Lifting heads when sad.
B. Keeping long faces when angry.
C. Bristling hair when ready to attack.
D. Bowing heads when willing to obey.
46. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?
A. Body language is unique to humans.
B. Animals express emotions just as humans do.
C. Humans have other powers of communication.
D. Humans are no different from animals to some degree.
47. This passage is mainly about .
A. the development of body language
B. the special role humans play in nature
C. the power to convey information to others
D. the difference between humans and animals in language use

Your mobile phone rings,and instead of usual electronic signals,it’s playing your favorite music. A friend sends your favorite song to cheer you up. One day,a record company might forward new records and music videos to your phone.
The mobile business is getting into the music business. For the moment,the interest is in pleasant ring tones,but some companies are hoping to take full advantage of the next generation of mobile phones—all purpose gadgets that blend phone,personal stereo,video player and Internet browser into one.
Finally,record companies might send new records and videos to fans who register their cell phone numbers.
The fans could pass music or songs along to friends—a kind of musical trading card. Unlike Internet tracks,mobile downloads would be easy for record companies to control,said former record industry official Ralph Simon,who is now chairman of your mobile,based in Santa Monic, California.
“If you pass a song along to other phones through a network,each phone can be charged,”said Simon.“It’s like going through a toll gate(收费站).There’s more possibility for copyright control than there is on the Internet.”
Massachusetts-based Converse is offering a service in Portugal and the Netherlands that lets people record tunes on their voice mail or send music as presents to friends.Finally,people might be able to sing karaoke and pass them along.The company is sure that people will want to use music to reach out and touch someone.21世纪教育网
“A mobile phone is not a listening machine,and you’ll be disappointed if you think you can change it to a radio,”said Ohad Ouziel,a creative manager for Converse in Israel.“But if someone sends you a song while you’re on vacation,you appreciate the feeling.”
48.“Massachusetts-based Converse”in the sixth paragraph probably refers to .
A. a person B. a city in Israel
C. a state in the USA D. a company
49. Record companies the idea of passing songs and music along mobile phones.
A. are worried about B. are interested in
C.try hard to stop D. don’t think over
50. According to Ralph Simon, it would be easier to _______through mobile phone network than through the Internet.
A. protect copyright of music works
B. send personal messages
C. pass along songs and music
D. send voice mail

The thought of college life is quite exciting for students, but most of them soon start suffering from homesickness, which refers to the feeling of missing home, especially parents and loved ones. Fortunately, homesickness at college goes away once students start adjusting to(适应)their new environment.
When students enter college, they leave behind the comfort that their home and parents provided them with, so they miss the support they received at home from their family. The anxiety(忧虑) of the academic performance(学业成绩) can also add to the feeling of homesickness. Moreover, as many students have to work to fund their living as well as college fees, there will be additional stress as they have to find a job immediately, and this can add to their feeling of homesickness.
Though homesickness isn’t very serious, if not dealt with at the proper time, it can lead to dangerous results. Students who don’t learn to deal with homesickness may go into depression and sometimes may lean towards alcohol and drugs(酒精和毒品). Therefore, It’s important that students who experience homesickness at college know about how to deal with it.
The first step to overcoming homesickness is accepting that you’re experiencing that feeling. In fact, homesickness is experienced by people of all ages. Going through the emotions and thoughts about life at home for a day or two will be better.
To get over the feeling of homesickness, you can make new friends. To start with, talk to your roommates and later to your classmates. Take part in the various student activities that the college organizes where you can meet new fellow students.
Keeping in touch with your family is also a good idea. Call and email your parents and friends regularly to know how they are doing and tell them about your new life. Making a short visit on weekends will also be a great thing, if possible. However, don’t go home every weekend as this may make it more difficult for you to get adjusted to college life.

One possible version:
Great changes have taken place in the way of communication in people’s life in recent years.
In the past,people kept in touch with each other mainly by writing letters or using the public telephone. But now almost everyone has his own mobile phone. People can communicate with each other almost at any place and at any time. What’s more,people have easy access to the Internet,which enables them to send and receive e-mails whenever they like.
With these changes,people’s pace of life has been quickened and people’s work has been made more efficient. It used to take several days to hear from each other,but now it takes only several minutes,even if they are in two different continents. In a word,great changes in the way of communication have contributed to an easier and more convenient life for people.

答案与解析

2. take measures
3. next to 4. go halfway to
5. as it is 6. look out for
7. away from 8. at the same height
9. halfway stage 10. look out
Ⅱ. 1. C 本题考查as it is结构。依据题意可知,things是复数,相应的代词用they;表示“接受现在的事实”用take things as they are。故选择C项。
2. C 本题考查短语辨析。分析句子可知,while后接现在分词短语作时间状语,故前面是祈使句,首先排除B、D项。空格处所填短语的宾语是dangerous animals,而A项是不及物动词短语,故选择C项look out for“小心,当心”。
3. B 本题考查adjust的用法。题意:我的照相机可以调节,在各种条件下都可以拍照。依据题意可知,照相机是被调节的,adjust应该用被动语态,故首先排除A、C项;表示“在各种条件下都可以拍照”是照相机可调节的目的,应用动词不定式,故选择B项。
4. A 本题考查词形辨析。分析句子可知,空格处为need的宾语,应该用名词adjustment。adjust为动词,“调整,调节”;adjustable为形容词,“可调节的”;adjust to为动词短语,“适应于”。
5. B 本题考查词义辨析。题意:我必须把表调准,它慢了五分钟。表示“把表调准”用adjust。adapt适应,改编;admire钦佩,欣赏;admit承认。
6. B 本题考查词义辨析。题意:望远镜是可调节的,无论是在阴天还是晴天的夜晚,都便于看清晰。表示“可调节的”用adjustable。acceptable可接受的;changeable可变化的;avoidable可避免的。
7. D 本题考查词(组)辨析。题意:适应/习惯热带的炎热比我想象中要困难得多。表示“适应”可用adjust/adapt to;表示“习惯”用be used to,故选择D项。
8. A 本题考查短语辨析。依据题意可知此处表示“小心玻璃”,用Look out for the glass! walk out退席;罢工;set out for动身前往(某地)。
9. B 本题考查短语辨析。题意:我原以为我可以继续在这儿工作,但看样子我得再找份工作了。表示“看样子”用as it is。in fact事实上,实际上; as usual像往常一样;as is the case正如……的情况。
10. B 句意:玛丽,约翰承诺要帮助你,我提醒过他。tell告诉;remind提醒;warn警告;advise建议。
11.C 句意:你站在这儿多久了?根据句意,应用现在完成进行时。
12.B 句意:自从这个学生毕业以来,他一直在写这本小说。从过去开始到现在,还要持续下去,用现在完成进行时。
13.C 答语句意:是的,我累了,我打扫教室有四个小时了。从for 4 hours可以看出应用现在完成进行时。
14.A 句意:我刚到办公室,我妻子就打电话让我立刻回家。hardly...when...是固定句型,意为“刚……就……”。类似的结构还有scarcely...when...,no sooner...than...。以上结构中如果no sooner,hardly,scarcely放在句首时句子用倒装语序。解答本题的关键是句中的副词hardly。
15.D “immediately+句子”意为“一……就……”。句意:我们一打电话到急救中心,医生不久就会到来。A项中no sooner放在句首,句子须用部分倒装语序;B项中shortly为副词,不能引导句子,两个句子中间缺少连词;C项中第二个空的时态应用一 般将来时。
Ⅲ. 1. have been learning English
2. as soon as
3. adjusted to
4. Remind
5. gave an interview
Ⅳ..1. We should protect our eyesight.

8. Do look out for spelling mistakes.
9. We have adjusted to the new system.
10. This button is for adjusting the volume.
Ⅴ.1.D 根据上文中的rarely dislikes可知,此处应该用unless,意为“除非”。
2.C 句意:食品的烹调方式是很重要的。the way还指“……看上去的样子”。
3.B 从常识讲,看上去吸引人的饭菜能够增进孩子的 食欲。
4.A 句意:千万不要问孩子是否喜欢吃某种食品。 只有whether与ask的语气相符。
5.C 也不要当着孩子的面,讨论喜欢吃或者不喜欢吃某种食品。
6.B 只有anybody与上文中的never一词相符。
7.D be likely to do意为“有可能做……”。B项用法是It is possible to do...。willing此处不合句意。maybe不能用作表语。
8.D take...for granted固定用法,意为“认为……理所当然的”。
9.C 句意:想当然地认为孩子什么都喜欢吃,而有可能孩子就会这样。will“会”。
10.A a supposed dislike意为“一种假设的不喜欢”。(其实,他不一定真的不喜欢。)
11.C It is a good idea to do...做……是个好主意。
12.D share在此处是“一小份”的含义,和下文的“...eat all at once.”中的all相对。
13.B 前面提到,只给孩子一小份。孩子吃完了以后,还会再来要一份。
14.A 句意:而不要给他一次能吃完的尽可能多的食物。21世纪教育网
15.C over meal times在用餐时间。
16.B 句意:不要允许他吃完饭后立刻就离开饭桌去玩玩具。
17.B 孩子不久就会学会……。fast快地;slowly慢地;hurriedly慌张地,都不合逻辑。
18.A 他把饭大口吞下去,那么他就能匆忙跑去玩玩具。
19.C 后面所给的都是不正确的做法。所以要用on no condition意为“绝不要”。
20.A 两件事情都是不能做的。一般用or来连接否定句。

Ⅵ.阅读理解(共4小题;每小题2 分,满分8分)21世纪教育网
Such chronic (慢性的) diseases as heart disease, stroke, cancer and lung disorders are the leading cause of death in the world. Yet health experts say these conditions are often the most preventable.
The World Health Organization (WHO) points out chronic diseases lead to about 17 million early deaths each year. The United Nations (UN) agency expects more than 380 million people to die of chronic diseases by 2015.About 80% of the deaths will happen in developing nations.
Chronic diseases now cause two-thirds of all deaths in the Asia-Pacific area. In ten years it could be almost three-fourths. People are getting sick in their most economically productive years. In fact, chronic diseases are killing more middle-aged people in poorer countries than in wealthier ones. The WHO estimates (估计) that chronic diseases will cost China alone more than 500,000 million dollars in the next ten years. That estimate represents the costs of medical treatment and lost productivity. Russia and India are also expected to face huge economic losses.
According to a WHO report on the problem, deaths from chronic diseases have increased largely as the result of economic gains in many countries. Infectious and parasitic (寄生的) diseases have until recently been the main killers in Asia and the Pacific, they are no longer the major cause of death in most countries.
As many as 80% of deaths from chronic diseases could be prevented, health officials say. An important tool for governments is to limit the marketing of alcohol and tobacco to young people. Also, more programs are needed to urge healthy eating and more physical activity.
The UN aims to reduce chronic-disease deaths by 2% each year by international action through 2015, that’s to say,36 million lives could be saved, including 25 million in Asia and the Pacific.
1. According to the passage, chronic diseases_______.
A. can be avoided
B. can be kept from happening
C. will disappear
D. are all deadly
2. This passage seems to stress that________.[来源:21世纪教育网]
A. chronic diseases only happen in developing countries
B. developing countries surfer chronic diseases most
C. young people are addicted to alcohol and tobacco
D. the good measures can be found to prevent chronic diseases
3. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Most deaths are caused by chronic diseases in the world.
B. The middle-aged are becoming victims of chronic diseases in Asia.
C. Infectious and parasitic diseases are no longer death killers.
D. To reduce chronic-disease deaths needs worldwide efforts.
4. The best title for the passage would be“_______”.
A. Different Measures to Fight Chronic Diseases
B. The WHO’s Report on Health in Developing
Countries
C. The UN: the Leader of International Community
D. Chronic Diseases: the World’s Leading Killer

14. B 本题考查短语辨析。题意:他戒了烟,为儿子上学存钱。表示“把……另外存起来,存储”用set aside。set off动身;set up设立,开办,竖起;建起;set down放下,搁下。
15. B 本题考查短语辨析。题意:大家认为经理会待在医院,结果他却出现在会议上。表示“出现”用turn up。turn out结果是,证明是;turn down拒绝;turn in上交,(经过努力)获得,产生。

What will people die of 100 years from now?If you think that is a simple question,you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术).With the help of new medicine,the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents,murder and war. Today’s leading killers,such as heart disease,cancer,and aging itself,will become distant memories.
In discussion of technological changes,the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live?Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells (细胞) are the basic units of all living things,and until recently,scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells,such as those of brain cells,would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100,medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so,people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs (器官).The medicine,made up of the basic building materials of life,will build new brain cells,heart cells,and so on—in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones. 21世纪教育网21世纪教育网
It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence,but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.
1.According to the passage,human death is now mainly caused by ________.
A. diseases and aging
B. accident and war
C. accidents and aging
D. heart disease and war
2.In the author’s opinion,today’s most important
advance in technology lies in_________.
A. medicine B. the Internet
C. brain cells D. human organs
3. Humans may live longer in the future
because_________.
A. heart disease will be far away from us
B. human brains can decide the final death21世纪教育网
C. the basic materials of cells will last forever
D. human organs can be repaired by new medicine
4. We can learn from the passage that________.
A. human life will not last more than 120 years in the future
B. humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells now
C. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer life
D. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells

5. let out
6 .relieve sb. of/from
7. fun_ction as 8.insert...into...
9. replace...with...21世纪教育网
10. There’s no point in doing sth.
Ⅲ. 1. C 本题考查词形辨析。题意:她跌倒后脚踝肿了起来。表示“肿胀的”用形容词swollen。swell为动词,“膨胀,肿胀”;swelled是动词swell的过去式;swells是动词swell的第三人称单数形式。[来源:21世纪教育网]
2. B 本题考查句子的引导词。依据题意可知用while,表示“然而”。since自从;when当……的时候;as当……的时候。
3. B 本题考查前面所说的否定情况也适用于后者的句型,应用“neither/nor+助动词+主语”。A项中动词不正确;C项用于既有肯定情况,又有否定情况的句子中;D项用于前面所说的肯定情况也适用于后者。
4. C 本题考查句中既有肯定情况,又有否定情况时,表示后者也如此的句型,即要用So it is/was with...或It is the same with...。故选择C项。
5. C 句意:“你如何看待未来的商店购物?”“就我个人而言,我认为它将会和在家购物并存但永远不会被取代。”答语中的it指代问句中的store shopping。由句意可知store shopping 和replace之间是被动关系,A项和B项均是主动语态,不符合句意;D项为过去将来时的被动语态,不符合时态一致的原则;只有C项是一般将来时的被动语态,符合句意。
6.D 句意:一种新型的用于制造水管的材料已经在工业上替代了钢或铁。control控制;rebuild重建;repair维修;replace替代,替换。
7.A A项为“长处”;B项为“天赋”;C项为“能力”;D项为“技能”。句意:“你为什么选择在一家国际旅行社工作?”“噢,你知道的,英语是我的强项,所以那是我最好的选择。”根据句意可知A项意思最符合。
8. B 句意:仍有许多人在公共场所吸烟这一事实表明我们可能需要一次全国范围内的运动来提高人们对吸烟危害的认识。本句说明了一个现在存在的事实,故用一般现在时。主句的主语是the fact, 故谓语用动词的第三人称单数形式suggests。suggest在此句中的意思是“表明”,并非“建议”。
9.D 句意:妈妈劝他努力学习,但这似乎不起作用。suggest和hope后不能直接跟人,故排除A、B;insist on后跟动名词;只有advise构成advise sb.to do sth.结构,意为“劝告某人做某事”。
10.A that引导的句子是同位语从句,解释说明suggestion。此处从句用虚拟语气。
Ⅳ. 1. on the point of 2.let out 3.let out
4. is addicted to 5.replace the vase
6. are sharp with 7.relieve you of
8. inserted a dictionary between
9. lets the water out
10. was let out

2. Tom tried to make the knife sharp.
3. He kept a sharp look out for any stranger.
4.所有的迹象都显示着春天的来临。
5.你忽略了这篇小说的整个要点。
Ⅶ. 1. A 细节推断题。由第一段 “Today’s leading killers,such as heart disease,cancer,and aging itself,will become distant memories.”可知,A项为正确答案。B项的内容与本题不相关;C项中accidents和D项中war是人类未来的杀手。
2. A 细节推断题。由第二段第一、二句 “In discussion of technological changes,the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times.”可知,A项为正确答案。B、C和D项均不符合题意。
3. D 细节推断题。由第二段“...people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs.”可知,D项为正确答案。
4. C 推理判断题。由最后一段 “...many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.”可知,C项为正确答案。A、B、D项均与原文不符。

A
Although man has known asbestos(石棉) for many hundreds of years, it was not until 160 years ago that it was mined for the first time on the North American continent. H.W. Johns, owner of a New York City Supply Shop for roofers, was responsible for(对……负责) the opening of that first mine.
Mr. Johns was given a piece of asbestos which had been found in Italy. He experimented with the material and then showed its surprising powers to his customers. After putting on a pair of asbestos gloves, which looked much like ordinary work gloves, he took red-hot coals from the fireplace and played with them in his hands. How astonished the customers were to discover that he was not burned at all! You can well imagine that he had increasing business in asbestos roofing materials. However, because it was very expensive to transport (carry) them from Italy to the United States, Mr. Johns sent out a young scientist to seek a source nearer home. This young man found great vein(岩脉),in the province of Quebec in Canada.
Ever since 1881 Quebec has led the world in the production of this unusual mineral, which is made up of magnesium, silicon, Iron, and oxygen. When it is mined, the asbestos is heavy, just as you would expect a mineral to be. When it is separated, a strange thing happens; the rock breaks down into fine, soft, soapy fibers(纤维).
Scientists do not know why the rock can be separated easily into threads(线),but they have found thousands of uses of this fireproof material, of the so-called“cloth of stone”.
41 Which title best expresses the main idea of this passage?
A. Asbestos mined in Canada
B. Fireproof matter
C.A “wonder” mineral
D.A new roofing material
42. Johns proved his ability as a salesman by _______.
A. going into roofing business
B. carrying asbestos from Italy
C. sending a trained scientist[21世纪教育网
D. showing the use of asbestos gloves
43. Which is the most important character of asbestos that the author wants to show us?
A. It is like thread. B. It feels soapy.
C. It burns easily. D. It is unusually heavy.
44. The author’s main purpose in writing this passage was to _______.
A. show the need for more scientists
B. compare asbestos with other minerals
C. increase the sales of asbestos
D. present facts about asbestos
B
Every object tells a story. Even the most ordinary objects can present to us powerful images. Sometimes it is the ordinary nature of these objects that actually makes them so extraordinary. Such is the case with an old leather shoe in a museum in Alaska. At first glance it does not look like much. It is a woman’s shoe of a style popular in the 1890s.But what is unique(独特的) about this shoe is where it was found. It was discovered on the Checkout Pass, the famous trail used by the people seeking gold in Alaska. Who it belonged to or why it was left there is not known. Was it perhaps dropped by accident as the woman climbed up the 1,500 stairs carved outface? Or did she throw away goods that she didn’t need in order to travel lighter?
Over 100,000 people with “gold fever” made this trip hoping to become millionaires. Few of them understood that on their way they would have to cross a harsh wildness. Unprepared for such a dangerous journey, many died of starvation and exposure to the cold weather.
The Canadian government finally started requiring the gold seekers to bring one ton of supplies with them. This was thought to be enough for a person to survive for one year. They would carry their supplies in backpacks(背包) each weighing up to fifty pounds; it usually took at least 40 trips to get everything to the top and over the Pass. Whoever dropped the shoe must have been a brave and determined woman. Perhaps she was successful and made it to Alaska. Perhaps she had to turn back in defeat. No one will ever know for sure, but what we do know is that she took part in one of the greatest adventures in the 19th century.
45. The ordinary woman’s leather shoe is considered unusual because ________ .
A. it was an important clue to life in the past
B. it was found on a famous trail
C. it at one time belonged to a VIP
D. it was a fashionable shoe at that time
46. According to this passage, many people who went to Alaska _______.
A. eventually became millionaires
B. brought with them many shoes
C. had conflicts with the Eskimos
D. were not properly equipped
47. The Canadian government made gold seekers bring one year’s supplies with them so that ______.
A. they would not die of hunger and cold
B. the army would have enough food for fighting a war
C. they would change these goods with the Eskimos
D. the supplies would make Alaska rich
48. No matter what happened to the woman who owned the shoe,______.
A. she must have lived a happy life
B. she certainly dropped the shoe on purpose
C. her adventurous spirit is definitely admired
D. her other shoes were equally fashionable
C
With only about 1,000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone(克隆) the animal and save the endangered species(物种).That’s a move similar to what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called“Noah’s Ark”.
Noah’s Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎),semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A & M’s College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.
It is estimated that as many as 2,000 species of mammals, birds and reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.
This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.
The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.
“The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available(capable of being used) panda eggs could be a major problem,” Kraemer believes.“They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby).It takes a long time and it’s difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort,” adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A & M, the first ever attempt at cloning a dog.
“They are trying to do something that’s never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noah’s Ark. We’re both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and there’s a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. It’s a research that is very much needed.”
49.The aim of “Noah’s Ark” project is to ______.
A. make efforts to clone the endangered pandas
B. save endangered animals from dying out
C. collect DNA of endangered animals to study
D. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another
50. According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of ______.
A. available panda eggs
B. host animals
C. qualified researchers
D. enough money
51. The best title for the passage may be ______.
A. China’s Success in Pandas Cloning
B. The First Cloned Panda in the World
C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas
D. China—the Native Place of Pandas Forever
52. From the passage we know that ______.
A. Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog
B. scientists try to implant a panda’s egg into a rabbit
C. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches
D. about two thousand of species will probably die out in a century
D
Some researchers claim that people’s personalities can be classified by their blood types. If you have blood type O,you are a leader. When you see something you want,you strive to achieve your goal. You are passionate,loyal,and self-confident,and you are often a trendsetter. Your enthusiasm for projects and goals spreads to others who happily follow your lead. When you want something,you may be ruthless about getting it or blind to how your actions affect others. Another blood type,A,is a social,“people” person. You like people and work well with them. You are sensitive,patient,compassionate,and affectionate. You are a good peacekeeper because you want everybody to be happy. In a team situation,you resolve conflicts and keep things on a smooth course. Sometimes type As are stubborn and find it difficult to relax. They may also find it uncomfortable to do things alone.
People with type B blood are usually individualists who like to do things on their own. You may be creative and adaptable,and you usually say exactly what you mean. Also you can adapt to situations,you may not choose to do so because of your strong independent streak. You may prefer working on your own to being part of a team. The final blood type is type AB. If you have AB blood,you are a natural entertainer. You draw people to you because of your charm and easygoing nature. ABs are usually calm and controlled,tactful and fair. On the downside,though,they may take too long to make decisions. And they may procrastinate,putting off tasks until the last minute.
53. The passage is written by means of ______.
A. enumeration B. process analysis21世纪教育网
C. classification D. exemplification

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
Filling in company application forms can become a boring and repetitive task. Yet any carelessness on an applicant’s part can draw a negative reaction from readers. Each company or organization usually uses its own specially designed form that,although it generally asks for the same basic information,may vary in detail. Therefore the suggestions below apply mainly to the approach you should take rather than suggest what you should write.
●When visiting future employers,always carry your personal data record with you so that you can readily search for details such as dates,telephone numbers,and other useful information.
●Treat every application form as though it is the first one you are completing—write carefully and neatly.
●Use words that describe the responsibility and different aspects of each job you have held rather than list only the duties you performed.
●Particularly describe social activities that show your involvement in the community,or activities in which you held a teaching or coaching role.[来源:21世纪教育网]
●Pay particular attention to a section on the form that asks you to comment on how your education and past experience have especially prepared you for the position.
Think this through very carefully before you write so that what you say shows a natural progression from past experience to the job you are applying for. If you can,and if they fit naturally,add a few words to demonstrate how the position fits your overall career plan.
Follow these suggestions and you can get your foot in the door of a great future!

答案与解析
Ⅰ. 1. C 本题考查动词短语辨析。题意:如果你想赢得今年的英语演讲比赛,你必须集中精力练习英语口语。表示“集中精力做某事”用focus on doing sth.;lead to“导致”;result in“导致,带来……结果”;adjust to“适应”。
2. D put away“收好,放好”;take down“写下,记下”;look over“从……上面看;察看,检查”;carry on“继续”。句意:吃完饭,经理们回到会议室继续讨论。
3. D 本题考查before的用法。分析句子结构可知,how long作will be的表语。题意为:“你认为要过多久中国才会向月球发射载人飞船?”“可能两三年吧。”表示“要过……才……”用句型 “It will be+一段时间+before...”。故选择D项。
4. A 句意:只有吃适当的食物,你才能够保持苗条、健康。only if放于句首时,主句应用部分倒装形式。
5. B 本题考查large quantities of的用法。large quantities of接名词作主语时,其谓语动词用复数形式,故首先排除A、C项;动词need不能用现在完成时态表动作已经完成,故选择B项。
6. B not until位于句首,主句要用部分倒装语序。
7. A 本题考查动词短语辨析。题意:通过看猫的眼睛里面(瞳孔)来判断时间是有可能的。表示“看……里面”用look into。look for“寻找”;look through“看穿,浏览”;look up“向上看,查找”。
8. A 本题考查介词搭配。题意:我们将会尽快调查这件事,请耐心一点。表示“调查”用look into。look around“查看;观光”;look at“看”;look up to“尊敬”。
9. B 本题考查动词短语辨析。题意:她的玩笑过火了,超过了我所能容忍的程度。表示“容忍,忍受”用put up with。put on“穿上”;put out“扑灭,熄灭”;put aside“撇开,储存”。
10. D 本题考查动词短语辨析。题意:他们提出了一个减少预算的计划,(看来)非常实用。表示“提出”用put forward。put off“推迟,拖延”;put away“把……收好放在一边”;put down“放下,拒绝,削减”。
11. C take up在此意为“开始从事”。
12. B 本题考查情景交际用语。题意:“先生,我可以把我的行李放在你旁边的座位上吗?”“请便。”表示“请便,请随意”用at your pleasure。with pleasure“很乐意”;never mind“没关系,不用担心”;help yourself“随便用,随便拿”。
13. B 本题考查pleasure的用法。表示“很乐意”用with pleasure。for pleasure“为了好玩”;at your pleasure“请便”;my pleasure“我的荣幸”。
14. D 本题考查 “neither/nor+助动词+主语”结构,用来表示前面所说的否定内容也适用于后者。分析句子可知,前面是否定情况,所以后面要用neither或nor,故选择D项。B项和C项应改为John doesn’t,either.。
15. A 句意:James从小桌上取走杂志,腾出空来放电视机。make room for...意为“为……腾出空间”;make 与其他三项构不成固定搭配,含义上也讲不通。
16. C 句意:这次试验已经排除了在那个行星上存在生命的可能性,但是这并不意味着在其他行星上就没有生命存在。find out“弄清楚”;point out“指出”;rule out“排除”;carry out“执行”。
17. C 句意:我们刚刚搬进一所大点的房子里,有许多事情要做。让我们开始做吧。keep up with“赶上”;do away with“废除,去掉”;get down to“开始做,着手做”;look forward to“希望,盼望”。根据句意选C项。
18. B 句意:珍妮正在找座位,这时,很幸运的是,有一个人站起来走了。take up“占据,开始从事”;get up“起床,起身”;shut up“闭嘴”;set up“建立,创立”。
19. A hang up“挂断电话”;break up“分解,分裂;拆散”;give up“放弃”;hold up“支撑;耽搁”。由语境中出现的call back later可知,此处应选择与打电话有关的短语。
20. C 句意:练习中国功夫不仅可以增强体力,而且能够培养一个人的性格。bring up“抚养,呕吐”;take up“从事,占据”;build up“增强,建立”;pull up“阻止,拔起”。
Ⅱ. 21. A be proud of是固定短语,意思是“感到光荣或得意的”。proudly“骄傲地”;prove“证明是”;provable“可证明的,可查明的”。
22. C 短语such as用于列举。
23. C cold是“伤风”,与high blood pressure,blood poisoning,smallpox并列,都是疾病名。hot“热的”;warm“温暖的”;cool“凉爽的”。
24. B 短语a great deal“大量的”,与上文的医疗成就相对应。
25. A 短语as well位于句末,表示“也”,符合句意。
26. B 与上文的医疗成就相照应。
27. D 根据上下文得知是指“医院”。
28. B 最现代化的医院当然也是“装备”最好的。
29. A 现代化与设备良好,当然需要“昂贵的代价”。

33. D 用介词for表目的。
34. A 从语法上判断,B=C,不可能有双重答案;选D则时态不正确。
35. B 承接上下文内容,此处应选plans。
36. C 指“医疗费用的帮助”。 A、D两项不符合题意;B项仅局限于“检查”,不能包括“医疗保健、检查、治疗”。
37. B 由上文知,此处应用fund“资金”;其他各项均不符合题意。
38. A 选项中B、D两项填入句中,意义不完整;C项则意思不清。
39. D when指“当……的时候”,引导时间状语从句;其余各项均不能表明上下文逻辑关系。
40. C “不需付更多的钱”,与前面“每月已直接付钱给医院”内容一致。
Ⅲ. 41 C 主旨大意题。短文主要介绍了石棉的神奇作用。故选C。
42. D 细节理解题。根据第二段中“After putting on a pair of asbestos gloves,...he took red-hot coals from the fireplace and played with them in his hands.”可推知,他是用当场演示的方法来推销他的产品的。故答案为D。
43. A 推理判断题。根据第三段中“When it is separated, a strange thing happens; the rock breaks down into fine, soft, soapy fibers(纤维).”及第四段中“Scientists do not know why the rock can be separated easily into threads(线).”可以断定答案为A。
44. D 推理判断题。从短文中可以看出来作者写这篇文章只不过是陈述事实而已。
45. B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But what is unique(独特的) about this shoe is where it was found. It was discovered on the Checkout Pass, the famous trail...”可推知此题答案为B。
46. D 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Unprepared for such a dangerous journey,...”可推知此题答案为D。

50. A 细节理解题。由第六段第一句话“‘The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available (capable of being used ) panda eggs could be a major problem,’”可知选A。
51. C 主旨大意题。从文章内容来看,无论是中国还是世界克隆熊猫还没有成功,所以排除A、B项;D项内容明显与文章内容不符,故排除。所以“探索克隆熊猫的可能性”应该是这篇文章的标题。
52. D 推理判断题。此题B项的干扰性较强,但由于它没有说明是Chinese scientists,所以应排除。A、C项明显与原文不符。根据文章第三段第一句可知答案为D。
53. C 推理判断题。本文按照血型分别谈论人的性格,这种写作方法叫分类。enumeration“列举”;process analysis“过程分析”;exemplification“举例,例证”。
54. C 细节理解题。根据第一段中“If you have blood type O,you are a leader. When you see something you want,you strive to achieve your goal...When you want something,you may be ruthless about getting it or blind to how your actions affect others.”可知,O型血的人作领导,会尽力做好想做的事情,又十分自信。但不太在意别人的感受。故选择C项。
55. C 细节理解题。本文最后一段中 “If you have AB blood,you are a natural entertainer.”可知,AB血型的人是天生的演艺人员。故选择C项。

The Way to Stay Healthy
Health is the most important for any of us. In order to stay healthy,we need some common knowledge.
Firstly,pay attention to the diet. We should eat lots of fruit and vegetables,because they are rich in fiber and low in fat. As a proverb says,“An apple a day keeps the doctor away.”So fruit is good for health. Don’t have a lot of food that contains too much fat,such as butter. Meanwhile,sweets should be eaten in proper quantity,because too much sugar does harm to us. Don’t drink too much coffee,either.
Secondly,exercise is necessary. Regular exercise can help us keep from getting fat. People who do running every day usually have stronger hearts than those who don’t.
Finally,form good living habits. We should sleep for about 8 hours at night,and never work too hard. Over work and little sleep will lead to illness. What’s more,stay away from cigarettes.
These are the things we should pay attention to so as to stay healthy.

Ⅵ.阅读理解(共4小题;每小题2分,满分8分)
There are three branches of medicine. One is called “doctor medicine”,or “scientific medicine”.Scientific doctors try to observe sicknesses,look for logical patterns,and then find out how the human body works. From there they figure out what treatments may work. This kind of medicine is believed to date from the 4th century BC. Although nowadays it is successful,in the ancient world this approach probably did not cure many patients.
A second kind of medicine is called “natural cures”,or “folk medicine”,in which less educated people try to cure sicknesses with various herbs (中草药).These folk healers also use observation and logic,but they are not so aware of it. They try things until they find something that seems to work,and then keep doing that. Folk medicine flourished long before the development of scientific medicine and was more successful in ancient times than doctor medicine.
The third kind is called “health spas”,or “faith healing”.Sometimes this may be as simple as touching the holy man and being immediately healed. Other times,a magician may make you a magic charm,or say a spell,to cure you. Some religious groups organize special healing shrines for the sick. In these places people rest,get plenty of sleep,eat healthy food,drink water instead of wine,and exercise in various ways. They also talk to the priests and pray to the gods. If you are feeling depressed or you have been working too hard,going to these places may be just the right thing to make you feel better.
1. Doctor medicine ______.
A. has a longer history than folk medicine21世纪教育网
B. has been practiced for around 1 600 years
C. bases its treatments on observation and logic
D. was very successful in curing sicknesses in ancient times
2. According to the passage,which of the following is NOT used in health spas?
A. Magic power.
B. Various herbs.
C. Religious faith.
D. A healthy life style.
3. According to the passage,which of the following statements is true?
A. Folk healers choose different herbs to cure diseases without any sound basis.
B. People who practice folk medicine need lots of formal education on herbs.
C. The success of folk medicine led to the development of doctor medicine.
D. Natural cures worked better than scientific medicine in ancient times.
4. The author’s primary purpose in this passage is to ______.
A. describe different types of medicine
B. argue for the importance of medicine in health care
C. show the crucial (决定性的) role religion plays in medical treatments[来源:21世纪教育网]
D. compare the educational background of three different types of patients

4.教育可以发展一个人的潜能。
5.这项研究有许多实际用途。
Ⅴ. 1. A 句意:在过去的二十年里在那个地区发生了巨大的变化。take place不能用被动语态,排除C项;根据时间状语应用现在完成时。
2. A 句意:很有可能环境保护者会到这个地区调查严重污染所造成的潜在的破坏。句型It is likely that...中的likely为形容词,B、C、D三项均为副词形式,与句式不符。
3. B it’s a long time since he smoked.意为“他好久不吸烟了”。since后的动词如果为延续性动词,在翻译时要加上“不”。根据第二句话的意思推断,第一个空应为“No”。
4. A 句意:“汽车排放了太多的废气。”“是的,但我确信一定会做某事来减少空气污染的。”reduce“减少”;remove“移动”;collect“收集”;warn“警告”。
5. C 句意:由于他生病卧床几个月,他不知道他这一领域的新发展。be ignorant of意为“不知,对……不知道”。A、B两项意为“意识到的”,不合句意;选D项结构错误。
6. D 句意:不管在哪里,他养成了早餐前散步的习惯。make it a rule to do sth.养成做某事的习惯,该结构中it为形式宾语,动词不定式to do sth.为真正的宾语,此时it不能换用其他词。
7. A manage to do sth.意为“设法做成某事”。句意:尽管他们离开家很晚,但他们设法赶上了末班车。
8.D 句意:抱歉,我现在太忙了。如果有时间,我一定会和你去远足。根据第一句话中的时间状语now可知此处谈论的是现在的事情。在后面的主从复合句中,主句中谓语是“would+动词原形”,但谈论的是现在的事情,由此可知该句使用了虚拟语气。根据主句中的动词形式可知从句中的假设应与现在事实相反,所以从句动词应用过去式。
9.D 句意:如果我们没有做好充分的准备,会议是不可能那么成功的。由语境可知“会议是成功的”,因为“我们作了充分的准备”,由此推断此题考查与过去事实相反的虚拟语气,所以if从句用过去完 成时,主句用“would/could/should/might+have done”形式,故D项正确。掌握与过去、现在或将来事实相反的虚拟语气的构成是解答此类题目的关键。
10. B 句意:在那个国家的西部地区有许多工作供你选择。present目前的,现在的(作前置定语);出席的,在场的(作后置定语)。available可利用的,可得到的;precious宝贵的,珍贵的;convenient方便的,便利的。21世纪教育网
11. A 句意:当他赢了比赛时,他所有的朋友都分享他的喜悦。share在句中作及物动词,意为“分享”。
12.D 句意:听起来好像汽车的发动机出了故障。如果这样的话,我们最好马上把它开到汽车修理厂(修理一下)。otherwise否则,要不然;if not 如果不是这样的话;but for that要不是那样。以上三项均不符合句意和语境。if so “如果这样的话”,符合句意和语境。if so相当于if something is wrong with the car’s engine。答案:D
Ⅵ. 1. C 细节推断题。由第一段 “Scientific doctors try to observe sicknesses,look for logical patterns,and then find out how the human body works. From there they figure out what treatments may work.”可知,C项为正确答案。A项意思与原文相反;B项时间不正确;D项的说法也是错误的。
2. B 细节判断题。由第三段对health spas的介绍可知,A、C、D三项都涉及了。而B项是第二段folk medicine的内容。
3. D 推理判断题。由第二段 “...was more successful in ancient times than doctor medicine.”可知,D项为正确答案。
4. A 推理判断题。纵观全文可知,本文为说明文,重在对three branches of medicine的说明介绍。B、C、D三项与本文不相关。故A项为正确答案。

Ⅵ.阅读理解(共3小题;每小题2 分,满分6分)
Every day 25 million U.S. children ride school buses. The safety record for these buses is much better than for passenger cars;but nevertheless,about 10 children are killed each year riding on large school buses,and nearly four times that number are killed outside buses in the loading zones. By and large,however,the nation’s school children are transported to and from school safety.
Even though the number of school bus accidents is not large,the safety of children is always of intense public concern. While everyone wants to see children transported safely,people are divided about what needs to be done—particularly whether seat belts should be compulsory.
People in favour of seat belts on school buses—many of them parents and medical organizations—argue that seat belts are necessary not only to reduce fatality and injury,but also to teach children lessons about the importance of using them routinely in any moving vehicle. A side benefit,they point out,is that seat belts help keep children in their seats,away from the bus driver.
People who object to seat belt installation suggest that children are already well protected by the school buses that follow the Nation Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) safety requirements set in 1977.They also believe that many children won’t wear seat belts anyway,and that may damage the belts or use them as weapons to hurt other children.
A new Research council report on school bus safety suggests that there are alternate safety devices and procedures that may be more effective and less expensive. For example,the study committee suggested that raising seat backs four inches may have the same safety effectiveness as seat belts.
The report sponsored by the Department of transportation at the request of Congress,reviews seat belts extensively while taking a broader look at safety in and around school buses.
1.According to the passage,who has the greatest degree of control of the school buses “safety”?
A.A new Research Council.

2. It may be inferred from this passage that______ .

B. proposals of seat belts on school buses would be seriously considered
C. an alternate safety device (raising seat backs four inches) may be taken into consideration
D. The Department of Transportation may either take the idea of seat belts or other measures when it reviews the whole situation

A. Making School Buses Even Safer for Children

Ⅵ. 1. D 此题是问谁最有权控制学校班车的安全。文章第四段讲道:National Highway Traffic Safety Administration在1977年制定的安全措施很好地保护了校车中孩子们的安全。据此可以推知,该机构有权就校车安全问题制定相关规定,它是最有权威的,所以答案应该是D项。A项属非官方,B项指交通部,但文中只指出它能“review”,并未指出或暗示它能“控制”;C项不属于交通方面,故不对。
2. B 文章最后一段讲到,在国会的要求下,交通部发起的这份调查报告要求详尽地考查座位安全带问题,同时要广泛调查校车内部以及校车周围的安全环境。因此选择B项。文章并未说明交通部要采取什么措施,所以D项不确切。第三段说,家长是使用安全带的支持者,所以A项不对。第五段只指出有一种替代方法,但并未指出它会被考虑执行,所以C项不对。
3. A 通篇文章讲的是学生乘坐校车的安全问题。许多人赞成并要求采取更安全的措施。所以答案应该选A项。C项较具干扰性,它虽然也涉及bus safety,但不是作者所要表达的最直接的愿望,而且文章也并未就具体的措施做出定夺。B项太片面,因为文章不只讨论了安全带问题。D项的说法太空泛,不具体。ou.

Ⅶ.阅读理解(共4小题;每小题2分,满分8分)
The very first flight in the history of man was made in 1783 in a basket hanging under a balloon. The most successful kind of balloon was the hydrogen balloon which made its first flight on 1st December 1783.But the first successful flight man ever made was the days previously (以前的),on 21st November 1783 in a hot-air balloon.
The balloon was not the best answer to the problem of flying because it had no engine and went where the wind blew it. Seventy years passed before the next big step forward. During this time people worked on plans for airships (飞艇),gliders (滑翔机) and aeroplanes. In 1852,an airship flew for the first time. It was driven by a 3-horsepower steam engine at a speed of 10 kilometres an hour. At about the same time the first glider flew with a man on board. People continued trying to make bigger and better airships right up to 1938,but the aeroplane was much safer,faster and easier to control. The first flight in an aeroplane had to wait until the petrol engine was developed. Perhaps the greatest day in the history of flying was 17th December 1903 when a petrol-driven aeroplane flew the length of modern Boeing 747 jumbo jet (超大型喷气客机) at 400 kilometres per hour. The last big advance in ordinary flying was the jet aeroplane which flew for the first time in 1941 at a speed of about 500 kilometres an hour.
The helicopter came late into the history of flying. A helicopter was designed as early as 1910 but the first successful flight did not occur until 1937.
1. The first successful balloon flight man ever made was_______.
A. on 1st December 1783
B. on 21st November 1783
C. ten days before 21st December 1783[来源:21世纪教育网]
D .ten days after 1st December 1783
2. From Paragraph Two we know that_______.
A. people flew successfully in airships between 1783 and 1852
B. the first flights in a glider and an airship happened at almost the same time
C. the first glider flew at a speed of 10 kilometres an hour
D. people stopped making balloon flights
3. Which of the following statements is true?
A. The world’s first aeroplane flew very fast.21世纪教育网
B. The first aeroplane covered a distance as long as modern Boeing 747 jet plane measure from end to end.
C. The first power driven aeroplane travelled the same distance as a Boeing 747 can.
D. The first petrol engine fixed in the aeroplane was very powerful.
4. From the information given in the last paragraph we could conclude that________.
A. man flew in a jet plane before he did in a helicopter
B. helicopters were designed earlier than gliders
C. man flew in a jet plane after he did in a helicopter
D. the first successful helicopter flight occurred some time before 1937

6. beyond repair 7.in the hope that
8. make up for 9.take notice of

Ⅱ. 1.aimed后加at21世纪教育网
2.annoy改为annoyed
Ⅲ. 1.tired 2.tired,tireless,tired
3.tiring,tiresome
Ⅳ. 1. D 本题考查词义辨析。句意:我们的星球正在变暖的其中一个后果是自然灾难的增加。表示“增加”用increase;result“结果”;account“说明,估计,理由”;reason“原因,理由”。
2. D 本题考查介词辨析。句意:在如此大的一个公司里找到一份工作总是超出了他的能力。表示“超出;非……所及”用介词beyond;under“在……下面”;over“在……之上”;above“在……上面”。
3. C 本题考查动词postpone的用法。依据题意可知,表示“推迟做某事”用postpone doing sth. 而非其他形式。故选择C项。
4. A 本题考查hope的用法。句意:他来这里是希望找到那个女孩。表示“希望……”且后面接动名词短语,应用in the hope of;其他各项均不正确。故选择A项。
5. B 本题考查短语搭配。句意:我向领导报告了这件事情,但没有人注意它。表示“注意,注意到”用take notice of;give notice of“通知”。
6. B 本题考查句子的结构。make use of意为“利用;使用”。句中use为名词,consider后面为宾语从句,第一个空应由what作定语修饰use;因宾语从句的主语为what use,所以第二个空应用被动语态。故选择B项。
7. A 本题考查的是非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,空格处在句中和through a computer一起作定语修饰goods。且goods和动词buy存在被动关系。故选择过去分词bought。
8. D 本题考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,该句的主语是taking短语,它应该和continue存在逻辑上的主动关系,故用现在分词continuing;而不定式一般不用作条件从句。故选择D项。
9. A 本题考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,空格处作定语修饰building,动词build与building有逻辑上的动宾关系,应用过去分词形式。而依据题意可知,该大楼正在被建造。现在分词的被动式being built可表示正在进行的被动动作;不定式的被动式to be built表将来的被动动作;过去分词done作定语则表示被动和完成。故选择A项。
10. B 本题考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,前半句为独立主格结构。因take与everything有逻辑上的动宾关系,故应用其过去分词形式。to be taken表将来的被动动作,不符合题意。故选择B项。
11. C 此处考查“hear+宾语+do/doing/done”结构,因为English是“被说”,故用spoken作宾补,表示被动。
12. A working in the restaurant为现在分词短语在句中作状语。
13. D 句意:我们度过了焦急的几周,等待着实验结果。本题用现在分词waiting作伴随状语。
14. D 句意:给他们打电话没打通,我们改为给他们发e-mail.
15. D 句意:他们用电脑使交通运转顺畅。keep+宾语+宾补,此处traffic与run之间为主谓关系,故用现在分词作宾补。
Ⅴ. 1. confused,confusing21世纪教育网
2. am annoyed with
3. released
4. promoting
5. an increase in
6. on the increase
7. sacrifice of;at the sacrifice of

5. The mosquitoes annoyed me so much that I couldn’t sleep.
6. Who can undertake so much work alone?
Ⅶ. 1.B 细节理解题。从第一段得知答案。
2.B 推理判断题。该题可用排除法。首先在四个选项中确定关键词,然后用这些关键词分别与文中的对应句进行匹配,最后一一排除干扰项,确定正确答案。A项的关键词为“airship”,文中与其对应的是第二段的倒数第二、三句,由此可以排除A项。文中与C选项对应的第二段的最后一句没有提及滑翔机的速度,故可以排除C项;D项内容文中未涉及。根据第二段的最后一句可确定正确答案为B项。
3.B 细节理解题。文章第三段的第三句“也许飞行史上最伟大的一天是1903年12月17日,一架由汽油驱动的飞机以每小时400千米的速度飞行了现在超大型喷气客机波音747的机身那样长的一段距离”可知选B。
4.A 推理判断题。由第三段和第四段的末句可推知答案。

As soon as I got on the train, I was taken along and introduced to the rest of the party. There were three Irish girls, a Scottish girl and Tony, our tour leader.
After the bustle (慌乱) of 1 the train, I went along to the 2 . There were three or four people 3 about the door, and a girl told me to 4 my compartment (隔间) and said she would let me know when it was my 5 .
When I got into the washroom, goodness—How 6 it was! It had a tiny sink (水槽),and the 7 was cold. When I wanted to wash my 8 , it was almost impossible to keep my 9 on one foot while I lifted the other into the water. It was quite a 10 , because the floor was very wet, and the soap and all my bits and 11 kept falling off the sink because the train was 12 so much.
My first night on the train was 13 , as I could not sleep, and when we arrived at Munich the next morning, I felt rather 14 .
I decided I could not spend another 15 night on the train. I asked an attendant if I could 16 to a compartment with a couchette (卧铺).He took me along to a grateful Austrian guard 17 put two other girls and me together in the same compartment. The 18 cost of the couchette all the way to Istanbul was only $2.50. The rest of that day’s 19 was very pleasant, and our compartment soon became a little home! And that night I had a 20 sleep.

Ⅲ. A 本题考查短语搭配。句意:他们最新的单曲代表了这个乐队的新起点。表示“新起点”用a new departure; sign“标志”;signal“信号”;assignment“任务,分配,分派”。
2. A 本题考查speed短语辨析。句意:我看见一个年轻人全速驾驶。这样太危险了。表示“用全速;开足马力,尽力地”用at full speed。with great speed“快速”; with speed“迅速,赶快”;speed up“加快速度”。

7.B 题干的意思是:“在我们生活的这个时代,有更多的信息可以比以往任何时候都更加容易获得。”该句为主从复合句,an age为先行词,空格处引导定语从句并在从句中作时间状语,故用when。
8.D 句意:既然你不听,又怎能希望学到东西呢?in case万一,以防;even if即使,尽管;unless除非;when既然。根据句意可知D项正确。
9.A 句意:我们正在湖里游泳,这时突然来了暴风雨。be doing...when...表示在某动作发生的过程中,这时突然发生另外一件事,when意为“这时”。
10.C 句意:史密斯一家通常不喜欢待在旅馆里,但是去年夏天他们在海边一家非常不错的旅馆里待了好几天。表泛指时复数名词前不加冠词,故用stay at hotels;by the sea 在海边,是固定搭配,而by sea指“乘船”或“由海路”。

Ⅶ.阅读理解(共4小题;每小题2 分,满分8分)
San Francisco is going to do what many other cities have already done—provide free bicycles to the public. The mayor of San Francisco supports the bicycle program. He wants to improve the terrible traffic problems in the city.
At first,40 to 60 bikes will be available only to city workers. People will give their old bikes to the city to use in the program. If this program is successful,one day more than 1,000 bicycles will be available. Everyone, not just city workers,will be able to use these bicycles.
People in Fresno,California already have a21世纪教育网
free bicycle program. In fact,this idea began in Amsterdam over 40 years ago. These programs encourage citizens to get out of their cars and onto pollution-free bikes.
Fresno’s Yellow Bike Program puts about forty bicycles around the city. The bikes are painted bright yellow so people know they can take them. When people take a yellow bike,they can ride to work or to shopping areas,and then leave the bike for the next rider.
Some people worry that the free bikes will be stolen. However,theft hasn’t been a problem in free-bike cities by now.
While most people think the bike program is a good idea,only a few say they will use it.“I will still drive my car,”says Joanna Greene.“San Francisco has a lot of hills. My office is at the top of Potrero Hill. I don’t think I’m in good shape. And,wouldn’t I have to carry a helmet with me all the time?”
Phil Chung agrees,“There is too much traffic. Riding a bicycle can be dangerous. There are not very many bike lanes.”He continues,“Plus,it’s too cold in the winter. And what if you ride a bike to work,and then there isn’t one to ride home?”Program leaders know there will be problems. But they think it’s worth trying.“It’s not the solution for everyone,”states Sylvia Pass.“But if just one hundred people use it every day,that’s one hundred cars that aren’t on the streets,one hundred parking spaces that aren’t used. I think it’s a great beginning.”
1. San Francisco provides bicycles to the public because________.
A. there are many bikes available
B. many people don’t have cars of their own
C. many other cities have already done so
D. the traffic problems are terrible
2. The following statements are the disadvantages of free-bike program in San Francisco EXCEPT that_______.
A. free bikes will be stolen
B. San Francisco is not flat at all
C. riding a bike is not safe enough
D .it will be too cold in the winter
3.What does“I’m in good shape.”in the sixth paragraph mean?
A. I’m beautiful.
B. I’m healthy and strong.
C. I have a good figure.
D. I’m heavy and strong.
4. The program leaders think the program is worth trying NOT because_______.
A. there will be more problems
B. they can solve some problems21世纪教育网
C. there will be fewer cars on the streets anyway
D. there will be more parking spaces

Ⅴ. B 本题考查固定搭配。come into power意为“执政,当权”;D项pick up“捡起,拾起”。故选择B项。
2. D 本题考查词义辨析。题意:电,像其他形式的能源一样,价格大幅上涨。表示“能源,能量”用energy;strength力气,力量;force力量,武力;power权力,能力。故选择D项。
3. D 本题考查动词短语辨析。题意:她在日本的时候学会了日语。现在她能讲得很自如。表示“学得;通过学习或经历获得(知识)”用pick up;pick out挑选;make out理解,辨认出;make up编造,弥补。
4. A 本题考查do you think作插入语。do you think常用于特殊疑问句中作插入语,置于wh-之后,其后的部分要改用陈述语序。故选择A项。[来源:21世纪教育网]
5. D 句意:结果显示有成千上万的人观看了昨天对阵爱尔兰的比赛。turn on“打开(电源、开关等)”;turn in“上交,递交”;turn around“转过身来”;turn out“结果为;证明是”。由句意知D项正确。
6. C 本题考查do you think作插入语的用法。do you think常用于特殊疑问句中作插入语,置于wh- 之后,其后的部分要改用陈述语序。B、D两项都属于非谓语形式。故选择C项。
7. A 本题考查动词短语辨析。题意:医院里每个人都希望他在几天的治疗后会好转起来。表示“好转,改善”用pick up;take up从事,占(地方);give up放弃;make up编造,弥补。

9. C 本题考查词义辨析。题意:我们开车绕道回的家。表示“路线”用route;street通常指位于城镇或城市内的“街道”“马路”“行车道”,在美国英语中指城市中向东向西的街道;path常指田间或林间的地面上由于人们长期踩踏而形成的“小路”“小径”“小道”;method方法。故选择C项。
10.D 题干的意思是:“如果他们当时知道下一步要发生什么,他们可能就会三思的。”逗号前的部分为倒装句及省略句形式,正常语序为If they had known what was coming next,由此可知该复合句使用了虚拟语气。根据从句谓语动词使用了过去完成时形式可知此处是对过去的事情进行了假设,这时复合句中的主句应使用“情态动词+have done”结构。must表示非常肯定的推测,而might的肯定语气并不是非常强烈。结合语意可推知答案。
11.D 句意:我告诉你朋友该怎么去旅馆,但或许我应该开车送她去那儿。could have done意为“本能够做而未做”;must have done意为“肯定做过某事”;might have done意为“可能做过”;should have done意为“本应该做某事而事实上没做”。由句意知选D项。
12.D 句意为“如果昨天哈罗德没有开车送我们回家的话,我们就乘出租车了”。根据句意以及题干中关键信息would have called,yesterday以及if可知,强调的是虚拟语气的意思。根据过去时的时间状语提示,联想虚拟语气在过去时中的主句和从句各自的结构可知,答案为D。
13.C 由前句中的happy和下句中的not difficult at all可推知“肯定是通过考试了”,故用must have done“肯定做过某事”。
14.B 句意:带些钱,以防万一你以后用得着。in case引导的状语从句中用虚拟语气。might表猜测。
15.A 句意:这个贫穷的男孩快速地吃着饭就像多年没吃饭了一样。此处as if引导的状语从句用虚拟语气,与过去事实相反,故用had done。
16.D unless除非,如果不。如果用unless,那么语意前后矛盾;even if 即使,引导让步状语从句;in case以防,万一,引导目的、条件状语从句; as/so long as 只要,引导条件状语从句,符合语意和语境。句意: 只要你承诺不开得太快,你就可以借用我的车。
17.D as当“尽管,即使”讲时,可把adj., adv., n.等提前,构成倒装语序,as后要用陈述语序。句意:尽管他的想法听起来很奇怪,但被参加会议的所有人所接受。
18.A as作“按照”讲;此句中as从句的主语也是they,且从句中要用被动语态,含有be动词,故可把they were省略。
19.B as for关于,至于。
20.D as soon as引导时间状语从句,从句要用一般现在时表示将来。
Ⅵ. 1.Where did you pick up your excellent English?
2. He picked up his suitcase and went out.

A
Believe it or not, optical illusion (错觉) can cut highway crashes.
Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. But stripes, called chevrons (人字形),painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.
Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C.is planning to repeat Japan’s success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.
Excessive (too great) speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards(danger) are the greatest curves, exit slopes, traffic circles and bridges.
Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.
Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.
41. The passage mainly discusses ________.
A. a new way of highway speed control
B. a new pattern for painting highways
C. a new way of training drivers
D. a new type of optical illusion
42. On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that ________.
A. they should avoid speed-related hazards
B. they are driving in the wrong lane
C. they should slow down their speed
D. they are coming near to the speed limit
43. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former_______ .
A. can keep drivers awake
B. can cut road accidents in half
C. will look more attractive
D. will have a longer effect on drivers
44. The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to ________.
A.try out the Japanese method in certain areas
B. change the road signs across the country
C. replace straight, horizontal bars with chevrons
D. repeat the Japanese road patterns
45. What does the author say about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads?
A. They are suitable only on broad roads.
B. They are falling out of use in the United States.
C. They are ignored in a long period of time.
D. They cannot be used successfully to traffic circles.
B
San Francisco has its cable cars. Seattle has its Space Needle. And, Longview has its squirrel bridge. The bridge, which has attracted international attention, is now a local landmark.
The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder, Amos Peters, to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.
The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of the library grounds. Before the bridge was built, squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building where office staff put out a nutty feast for the squirrels. Many times, Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.
One day Peters found a dead squirrel with a nut still in its mouth, and that day’s coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of the City Council(市政会).The Council approved, and Councilwoman Bess LaRiviere jokingly named the bridge “Nutty Narrows”.
After architects designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction. They built the 60-foot bridge from aluminum and lengths of fire hose (消防水带).It cost $1,000.
It didn’t take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes. The story was picked up by the media, and Nutty Narrows became known in newspapers all over the world.
In 1983, after 20 years of use, Peters took down the worn-out bridge. Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced. The faded sign was repainted and in July 1983, hundreds of animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of the new bridge.
Peters died in 1984, and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.
46. The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in order to
_______.
A. offer squirrels a place to eat nuts
B. set up a local landmark
C. help improve traffic
D. protect squirrels
47. What happened over the coffee break
discussion?
A. The committee got the Council’s blessing.
B. The squirrel bridge idea was born.
C. A councilwoman named the bridge.
D. A squirrel was found dead.
48. What does the underlined phrase “teaching
them the ropes” probably mean in the text?
A. Passing them a rope.
B. Directing them to store food for winter.
C. Teaching them a lesson.
D. Showing them how to use the bridge.
49. Which of the following is true of the squirrel
bridge?
A. It was replaced by a longer one.
B. It was built from wood and metal.
C. It was rebuilt after years of use.
D. It was designed by Bill Hutch.
50. What can we learn about Amos Peters?
A. He is remembered for his love of animals.
B. He donated $1,000 to build the bridge.
C. He was a member of the City Council.
D. He was awarded a medal for building the
bridge.

Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris. He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package.?
“Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find him easily,”Tony said.“You don’t have any luggage, right?”?
“Only this backpack,”Brian answered.“You said I could bring one carry-on bag.”?
“That’s right. One carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”?
“Thanks.”?
Is Brian a criminal(犯罪)?Not at all. He is an air courier. And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier, but it is quick.?
Every year about 80,000 people worldwide travel as air couriers. The number of tickets for courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isn’t for everyone. But if you have very little money, can be flexible(灵活的)about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation!?
51. Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his
travel??
A. Because they were the uniforms for air
couriers.
B. Because that made him easier to be
recognized.

For more than two hundred years people have been using trains. There’re trains to carry people,trains to carry animals and trains to carry things.
There’re fast trains,slow trains,trains that go under the ground and trains that go through mountains. In busy cities,trains have been put under the ground. The subway trains run on tracks through huge tunnels under the noise and traffic of the city. The monorail is another kind of train used in busy places. The train hangs from a rail high above the streets and it carries people quickly in and out of the city. Railroad tunnels which are miles long have been built through mountains.
Do you think these tunnels are easy to build?They are not. Workers spend many years on the job. Is it possible for a train to travel over water?Yes,it is. Great bridges have been built just for trains. And railroad tunnels have been built under the water. In some places a ferry carries the train across the water. Some trains travel great distances. You can travel for 2,461 miles on Australia’s trains which go across the continent or you can ride 6,000 miles across Russia. Today’s trains have nice little bedrooms and dining rooms for people who travel long distances.
Years ago trains were also used to carry important people. These trains had beautiful bedrooms,bathrooms,dining rooms and sitting rooms. They were like little palaces really fit for a king. You have probably seen freight trains. There are many kinds. There are trains to carry logs,refrigerator trains to carry food,tank trains to carry fuel,and even trains to carry cars. Some trains carry trucks and take them to other places. Then the trucks can travel on the roads. Trains have long been useful to men and women and to children. Many children have model trains. With the model trains,they can build their own railroads and enjoy the wonderful world of trains.

答案与解析
Ⅰ. 1. C 本题考查assume的用法。分析句子可知,当assume后接从句时,用that作引导词。
2. B 句意:三月的一天下午在田地里走时,他能感觉到春天的温暖。此处应该用现在分词作伴随状语,表示walk与feel是伴随发生的动作。
3. D 本题考查形容词词义辨析。根据题意“生动活泼(active)是好的,但寻衅闹事(aggressive)会惹麻烦”可知应选D项。其他各项与题意不符。
4. A 本题考查动词词义辨析。句意:这种考试制度一旦形成,将会出现一个崭新的局面。表示“出现”用arise;rise上升,升起;raise提出,抚养;arouse唤起,唤醒。
5. C 本题考查日常交际用语。It’s all up to you.由你来决定。其他选项不符合交际习惯。故选C项。
6. D 句意:为了按计划完成工程,我们不得不每天多工作两个小时。此处用动词不定式作状语,表示目的。
7. D remember to do sth.“记得去做某事”;remember doing sth.“记得做过某事”。句意为“我依然记得别人带我去法门寺以及我在那儿看到的事件”。
8. C 本题考查动词confuse的词形辨析。句意:如果你想同时学习很多东西的话,你可能会感到困惑。表示“感到困惑的”用形容词confused,在句中作系动词get的表语。confusing“令人困惑的”;A、D两项不符合系动词的用法。故选择C项。
9. C 本题考查动词词义辨析。句意为:如果这个方案按科学的方法去完成的话,我们能节约很多时间。assume假装,假设;consume消耗,消费;undertake从事,承担;expect期待,期望。
10. B 本题考查compare的词形辨析。句意为:“她本不该做那种事情。”“和你所做的事情相比,她做什么都是合情合理的。”表示“与……相比”用compared with/to,一般位于句首。故选B项。
11. A 本题考查介词辨析。句意:去做一个最终的决定超出了我的权力范围。表示“超出某人的权力范围”用beyond one’s power;其他介词均无此搭配。故选择A项。
12. B 本题考查介词辨析。句意:州长于1989年上台,他现在已经执政8年了。表示“上台”用come into power,表动作;in power“执政”,表状态。故选B项。
13. C show与take有明显的时间先后关系,且show与句子的主语构成逻辑上的动宾关系,故该空格处用现在完成时的被动形式。
14. D 本题考查固定搭配及意义。句意为:科学家必须努力工作,与时俱进。keep company with与……结交;keep track of 通晓事态,了解动向;keep in touch with与……保持联系;keep pace with跟上,赶上。
15. D 本题考查固定搭配及意义。lose/miss one’s connection to意为“误了到……地方去的(汽车、火车、轮船的)联运”。[来源:21世纪教育网]
16. A 句意:这位退休的老人把自己的大多数积蓄捐献给了在玉树地震中损坏的学校,从而使得学生们重新回到了教室。enabling...为现在分词短语作结果状语。
17. C 句意:怀特夫人给她的学生们看了一些从图书馆里借来的旧地图。old maps与borrow之间是被动关系,由句中的动词showed可知此动作已经发生,可排除不定式短语作后置定语,即排除A、B两项;D项表示主动或进行,也不符合语境;C项表示被动或完成,符合语境。
18. D 句意:他有一个非常美好的童年,那时他跟着他的妈妈周游世界。从句意看他和旅游之间为主动关系,又因为He had a wonderful childhood是一个完整的句子,故选D项。
19. D 句意:亚历山大努力想让他的工作在医学领域得到认可。get / have sth. done为固定用法,意为“使某事被……”,sth. 与done之间为被动关系。故选D。此处recognize意为“认可,赏识”。
20. A B、C、D三项的意思都是“导致,促成”,而A项意为“由……引起”。句意为:交通事故是由很多不同的因素引起的,比如说粗心、酒驾和超速。根据题意可知应选A项。
Ⅱ. 21. D 由第一句可知汽车是美国生活的重要组成部分,可见其必需性。若没有汽车,便很容易被人看作没有钱买车。故选择poor“贫穷的”,且与下句中的“even if a person is poor”相呼应。
22. A 根据句意“即便是真的贫穷,若在拥有一辆车的情形下,他也不会真的感觉到贫穷”。可知表示“真正的”用really;truly为事实上的真,强调不是假的;actually事实上;exactly确切地。
23. B 根据常识可知,福特开始大批量生产汽车。表示“生产”用make;do做;design设计;owe欠,应感激,把……归功于。
24. A 此处句意为“他或许不知道汽车将会对美国文化产生多么大的影响”。表示“产生影响”用动词affect;afford提供;effort努力;effect影响。
25 D 前文一直在讲述汽车,故此处句意应为“汽车使美国成为车轮上的国家”。表示“车轮”用wheels;foot脚;horse back马背;chair椅子。
26. B 此处考查短语help to“有助于”。
27. C 依据前文可知,此处句意为“汽车在美国如此流行有三个主要的原因”。popular流行的,普遍的。故选C项。
28. C 依据第三段中的“The second reason...”可知,此处为第一个原因,故用First of all。in all总的来说;after all总之,毕竟;above all首先。
29. A 此处句意为“美国人喜欢开车四处走走”。表示“四处走走”用move around;transport交通;walk走,散步;go去。
30. B 此处句意为“最舒适最经济的交通方式是由汽车提供的”。表示“提供”用provide;make制作;take拿走;prove证明。
31. B 此处句意为“人们可以开车去任何地方而不用花费很多钱”。表示“不用/没有”用without。
32. C 此处指“公共交通”用public transportation,为固定短语。
33. A common“普及的,普遍的”,用来描述长途火车,符合现实情况。usual通常的;unusual不寻常的;ordinary普通的。
34. D 比较各选项可得出,rockets不用于公共交通。由常识知,经常乘坐飞机费用很昂贵,故选D项。
35. A 由上一题的分析,可知此处选择frequently“经常地”。continuously持续地;completely完全地,彻底地;fully充分地。
36. B 此处句意为“第三个也是最重要的原因”,故用important“重要的”。funny滑稽的;common普遍的;simple简单的。
37. D 分析各选项,可用来说明美国精神的应该用independence “独立”。dependence依靠,依赖;self-confidence自信;selfishness自私。
38. A 依据此处句意递进关系,应该用or even表示“乃至,以至”。
39. C 此处句意为“他们不喜欢必须遵循一个准确的时间表”。表示“遵循”用follow。take拿走;receive收到;accept接受。
40. B most作为副词修饰动词want,意为“非常”。此处句意无最高级含义,A、C、D三项均与句意不符。
Ⅲ. 41. A 主旨题。通读全文,我们可以知道,在高速公路上画各种线是为了让司机觉得车速过快,从而达到控制车速的目的。
42. C 细节题。由第二段中的“But stripes, called chevrons(人字形),painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.”可知C项正确。
43. D 推断题。由最后两段对比可知,人字形线比直线、水平线对控制车速有更长久的影响。
44. A 细节题。根据第三段中的“...will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country...”可知他们计划在精心挑选的几条路上试验日本的模式。21世纪教育网
45. C 推断题。根据第五段中的“However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.”可知C项正确。
46. D 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built...to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.”以及第三段最后一句“Many times, Peters and others...witnessed squirrels being run over.”可知建桥就是为了保护松鼠免受伤害,故D项正确。A项表示“给松鼠提供吃坚果的地方”,与文章细节不符;B项表示“建立当地的标志性建筑”,这并非建桥的初衷;C项表示“帮助促进交通顺畅”,这已偏离了文章主题。
47. B 细节理解题。由文章第四段我们得知如下信息(按先后顺序):①found a dead squirrel;②the coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety;③cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and asked the blessing of the City Council;④The Council approved;⑤named the bridge “Nutty Narrows”。由事情发生的先后顺序看应选B项,表示“建立松鼠桥的想法诞生了”。
48. D 词义猜测题。文章倒数第三段开头就提到松鼠开始用这座桥了,人们甚至看见松鼠领着它们的幼仔,由此推断它们领着孩子就是为了教孩子如何使用这座桥,故D项正确。A项表示“传给它们绳子”;B项表示“指导它们为过冬储存食物”;C项表示“给它们一个教训”,这三项均与上下文语境不符。
49. C 细节判断题。通读全文我们知道,桥始建于1963年,重建于1983年,故C项正确。原文并没有提及重建时把桥加长了,排除A项;由文章第五段我们得知,该桥由aluminum(铝)和lengths of fire hose建成,可排除B项;由文章第五段中“After architects designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction.”可知该桥是由建筑师设计的,故D项错误。
50. A 细节理解题。纵观全文及文章最后一段得知,Amos Peters是个爱动物的人,而且受到人们的纪念,故A项正确。我们不知道Peters是否捐了1 000美元去建桥,文章只是说建桥花了1 000美元,故B项错误;C项“他是市政会成员”不是本文的信息;由文章最后一段可知,人们建了一座雕像来纪念他,而不是他得了奖牌,故D项错误。
51.C 推理判断题。由第一段和第三段描述可知Brian只能带一个小的背包,他的衣服没地方放,只能穿在身上。?
52.D 细节理解题。由倒数第二段第五句话“Air couriers...because they take important packages and papers...”知D项正确。
53.C 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句知用air courier送包裹并不便宜但省时。
54.A 推理判断题。由全文知air courier的任务是给别的国家送包裹和文件以备急用,因此他不能决定何时到何地去旅游,他只能听候别人安排。
55.D 主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了一个新的行业——air courier。
Ⅳ. 56. Types 57.animals
58. Many places 59.Subway trains
60. noise and traffic 61.quickly
62. Busy places 63.Ferries
64. Over water 65.carry things
Ⅴ.One possible version:
Heavy Traffic
In recent years,many cities are faced with the problem of heavy traffic. People have to waste more time on their way home or to work and even might be involved in an accident. With the development of industry and population expansion,this problem becomes more and more serious.
One solution is to lay down more roads. The solution has many advantages. For example,it can efficiently decrease the number of buses and trucks in many main streets. But it will take up so much land that crowded cities become more crowded. Another solution is to open up more bus lines. If more bus lines should be opened up,the number of bicycles and cars in the main streets would be greatly decreased. But the disadvantage of this solution is that many people wouldn’t feel so convenient as they used to.
In my opinion,the right solution to the problem is the combination of the two,that is,to lay down more roads in spacious areas and to open up more bus lines in downtown.

A
How to protect child Web fans from unsuitable material online while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the U.S.
For some parents the Internet seems like a jungle,filled with dangers for their children. But jungles contain wonders as well as dangers and, with good guides, some education and a few precautions(预防措施),the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated.“Kids have to be online. If we tell our kids they can’t have access to the Internet,we are cutting them off from their future,”said an expert.
Most kids have started to learn to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites,and they also find places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. But the most popular way to limit access would be to use what is known as a“content screener(过滤器)”.But this can’t be wholly reliable(可靠的),and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what’s OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that Mum or Dad is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet.
A few other tips:
Don’t put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where Mum or Dad can keep an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.
Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about friends they make online.
Tell your child not to give online strangers personal information,especially like address and phone number.
And tell your child never to talk to anyone they meet online over the telephone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet them.
56. The underlined word in the second paragraph probably means________.
A. designed B. invented
C. taught D. guided
57. The best way to protect children from improper materials is_________.
A. to keep watching the children’s activities
B. never to buy a computer for the children
C. to be nearby whenever they are surfing the Internet
D. to educate the children to tell right from wrong
58. We can infer from the passage that_______.
A. Internet does great harm to both the grown?ups and the children
B. a child who is online shows little interest in their lessons
C. Internet has caused many children to fall behind others in their study
D. Internet contains lots of harmful sites
59. The passage tells us most about________.
A. software B. computer
C. precautions D. education
B
“I’m seventy years old,”says the gray?haired lady proudly to the entertainer at her Community Club dinner.
“Did you hear that,everyone?”says the entertainer.“This lovely lady is just seventy years young! And she doesn’t look a little over fifty.”
He has been careful not to use the word“old”.In a society where youth is so admired, old age is often seen as something sad, something to fight against. Americans prefer not to say“old” people. They use the expression“senior citizens”.They do not talk about“old people’s”homes, but“retirement”homes.
In fact,the entertainer is not so wrong. Seventy is not very old these days. People in the US are living longer and longer. In 1980,12 percent of Americans were over sixty-five years old. By 2030,21 percent will be over sixty-five. One reason for this is that families are getting smaller. The average couple now has only 1.8 children. At the same time,improved medical care means that people are living longer.
This change in the age of Americans is going to have serious results. For one thing,medical costs are rising. The government is unable to pay the elderly people’s medical bills that have gone up very much. Some old people have to leave hospital“sicker and quicker”than they should,before they are really better.
More fortunate senior citizens,though,who still have good health,want new laws to be passed to allow them to stay at work. In the past,the retirement age was sixty-five,but that is changing now. Older people are stronger and more energetic than ever before. Many of them refuse to stop working just because they have reached a certain age.
There is a change,too,in the way in which elderly people see themselves. Many are no longer happy to accept the gray hair,bald heads,and boring clothes of their own parents. They like to wear younger-looking clothes and bright makeup(化妆品).American women spend millions of dollars a year on operations to lift their faces and make those ugly wrinkles disappear. Men are prepared to spend even more on operations to plant new hair on their bald spots. It’s worth any money to look younger.
60. In America people try to avoid using the word “old” because________.
A. the old age is seen as something that isn’t admired
B. it is now believed to bring bad luck to elderly people
C. the standard of getting old has changed
D. the change in the age has caused a healthy problem
61.According to the passage,which of the following does NOT describe the American society correctly?
A. People live longer because of improved medical care.
B. The government finds it difficult to afford the medical bills of the elderly.
C. People use polite expressions when talking about old age.21世纪教育网
D. The old patients’ time in hospital is strictly limited.
62. Which of the following is not the result of the changing in the age of Americans?
A. Medical costs are rising.
B. The family becomes smaller.
C. The retirement age needs changing.
D. Elderly people spend a lot on keeping young.
63. The underlined word “Many” in the last paragraph refers to_______ .
A. American adults
B. American old people
C. young Americans
D. American women
C
OK, so you’ve decided on career in the media,and you are sick to death with people telling you how competitive the industries are. You know you are going to have to get in any which way you can,and that this will probably mean making tea and photocopying,and you are prepared.
But that may mean that you will find it a little disappointing when you emerge from an environment where your ideas or you have been publishing your own magazines,and enter a place where perhaps no one will ask you your name,or say hello to you in the morning,and where you are being perhaps,not paid to do a job.
There are a number of training schemes (计划) offered across the media, which are a great route in. Simon Winder was given his start in publishing by the MacMillan’s training scheme.“I was sent out to Africa and Asia for a couple of years,selling educational books. It was a terrible job in many ways but interesting training,”says Winder. Because he had learnt first-hand about the business of publishing,his training prepared him for a career in the industry. On his return to England,Winder made the move to a senior position at Penguin seven years ago.
If you can’t get on to a training scheme,or get a paid job straight away,then offering your services for free will open up many opportunities to you. It is all about proving that you can do the job.“Identify companies and people whose programmes you like,and then simply write to them,”Connock advises those wanting to break into television.
Wherever you start out,if you work hard at what you do,your efforts will be rewarded.“Don’t focus on where you want to end up,”advises Ross.“You’ll know where that is when you’re there;just stay focused on the job in hand, and do that as well as you can.”
64. The main idea of this passage is probably_____.
A. how to develop a career in the media
B. the difficulties you will face in finding a job in the media
C. the tiring work you have to do at first in the media
D. what low pay you’ll get in the media[来源:21世纪教育网]
65. What did the writer intend to tell us in the second paragraph?
A. No one is willing to speak to you.
B. You are the least important person in the unit.
C. You will feel being ignored at the beginning.
D. You have to work without pay.
66. The ways you can enter the media include____.
A. learning the first hand experience about the business
B. taking part in training schemes or working for it for free
C. studying the companies and people you like21世纪教育网
D. showing your ability while you are working
67. As a whole what attitude should you have while trying to enter the media industry?
A. Watch out for your future career.
B. Pay attention to the relationship between your workmates.
C. Make hard efforts to do your present work well.

Tell your car to make a phone call without holding the phone. Tell your car to send an E-mail without touching the computer. Or even tell your car to send a call for help. Sound like something from a science fiction(科幻)movie? Well,thanks to a new “talking car”,this is soon to become a reality.
Road Track,the Israeli producer of Chevrolet,has built a computer platform (平台)called Chevy Star. It offers the driver a wide range(范围) of things you can get with your voice.
It uses a box the size of a mobile phone attached (贴上)to the rearview (or backview) mirror. The driver can use it to be in constant contact with Road Track’s offices. Many operators work round-the-clock there to answer the phone and respond to the needs of drivers.
To get into the car,the driver has to say a secret code,such as“open sesame”,for the doors to open and the engine to start.
As soon as he enters the car, the driver has three buttons: one for emergencies, another for telephone calls and a third for practical information.
When the driver presses the emergency button,the operator calls the car to ask if there’s a problem. If the driver is lost, the operator can use detailed maps to help the driver find his or her way.
“It depends 100 percent on the voice,so you don’t have to take your eyes off the road or hands off the wheel to use it. You just speak out and then the operator gives you directions,”said Danny Laguno of Chevrolet.
The operator is also alerted(警觉)when the driver hits the brake too hard. And if operators find a problem anywhere on the car,they warn the driver straight away. Need to make a phone call? Just press the button and read out the number to dial. E-mail can also be read.
The driver also has many practical things to choose from:the weather,the latest world or local news, what’s on at the cinema or theatre.

Ⅵ.任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填1个单词。
Do you love the holiday but you wish they weren’t so stressful, busy and likely to knock your health goals off course? Of course, you do. However, carrying around extra weight and feeling stress are two sure-fire ways to harm your heart. So it’s fundamental to know how to ensure your holidays are enjoyable and stress-free without overeating, packing on the pounds or harming your heart.
The first step you must take if you want to have a stress-free, fun-filled holiday season is to set your intentions for what you want your holidays to be like. Come up with a plan of action by reviewing what went well and didn’t go well in the past. Next, consider what you’ll do differently this time around. How will you change so that you keep what’s good while getting rid of what’s bad about the holidays?
Have a plan to free up time. A great way to do this is to first make a list of all the tasks you’re responsible for. Next, you should indicate which of these tasks you truly enjoy and which you don’t like at all. For any tasks you don’t like, think of a way to have someone else do them, put them off for another time like January, or just don’t do them at all. Now you have extra time to relax or do something you really enjoy. Use the painter’s pallet(调色板)approach while eating. For example, taste a little bit of each thing on the buffet table so you don’t feel deprived(缺少食物的).When you’re done, decide which thing you thought tasted the absolutely best and go back to have a regular serving of that particular holiday food. Many people gain on average between 1 and 4 pounds each holiday season because of overeating. To eat less at holiday table, drink some water before meals to help the stomach feel fuller, thus decreasing the appetite. You also can chew the food properly and count to five before swallowing. Then wait another five seconds for the next bite. Not only will you be able to enjoy the taste of the dish better, you’ll also give the body more time to digest the food properly.

17. frequent 18.remained
19. eager for you to 20.feel worn out
21.D 句意:当你读到关于外国政策和最近事件的烦人文章时,要努力找出最有趣的事情。foreign policies和current affairs为并列名词,不需要冠词修饰,后一个空是形容词最高级形式,故用the most。
22.C 句意:“现如今越来越多的青少年迷上了吸毒和喝酒。”“是啊,政府应该采取多种措施帮助他们。”be addicted to...“迷恋上”;all sorts of“各种各样的”。
23.B 句意:我们老师通过电话和我们学生保持联系。keep in touch with“与……保持联系”;by telephone“通过电话”,为固定搭配,符合语境。
24.C 句意:如果这个周日不下雨或不太冷,我们就去野餐。故unless“如果不,除非”正确。
25.A providing(that) 或provided(that)是连词,意为“如果,假如”,故答案应为A项。
26.B 句意:我很喜欢这座前面带有漂亮花园的房子,但是我没有足够的钱把它买下来。根据句意可知此处是特指前文提到的this house with a beautiful garden in front,故用it指代。
27.D 介词短语作表语,位于句首时句子要倒装,故排除A、C两项;又因为which引导的非限制性定语从句中的谓语动词为复数,故先行词为复数形式,即D项符合题意。
28.D 考查强调结构。It is...that...引导强调句式。[来源:21世纪教育网]
29.B 句意:别打搅我。我正在写信,今天下午准备交给老师。结合语境和时间状语this afternoon可知B项正确。
30.D 句意:我认为他不会参加晚会的。如果他参加的话,你认为他会穿什么呢?由句意可知表示的是与将来事实相反的虚拟。主句谓语用should+动词原形,were to do或者过去式,故D项符合题意。
31.A 先行词everything为不定代词,定语从句中只能用that作关系词。
32.D 在when 引导的时间状语从句中,应用一般现在时表示将来。
33.C 句意:要是他未曾悉心照顾生病住院的母亲,他就来参加这次会议了。根据题干句子中if虚拟条件从句的谓语动词hadn’t taken,可推测空白处的谓语动词应用would have attended。
34.A 句意:一些帮助穷困大学生完成学业的工程正在进行中。under way“在进行中”,符合题意。by the way“顺便问一下”;all the way“一路上,自始至终”;in the way“挡路”。
35.B 句意:“我可以问你一个相当私人的问题吗?”“当然可以,问吧。”根据前面的sure(当然可以),接下来应该是go ahead(你问吧)。pardon me意为“对不起,请原谅”,用于没有听懂或没有听清别人的话时,或表示道歉时;go ahead意为“开始吧,干吧”;good idea意为“好主意”;forget it意为“算了吧”。21世纪教育网

39.D 根据第一句“大热天”知,应该是擦汗。
40.B 下文转折语气说没去找水喝,应该是又干又渴。
41.C 根据下文的“停了下来”,上文应该是先慢下来。
42.A 把手放在眼睛上方是为了挡住刺眼的阳光以便看清楚。
43.C 下文说“穿戴整齐”,所以此处应该是“尽管这么热”。
44.B 指上文年轻人看到的那个老人,用定冠词the限定old man。
45.D 老人在热天穿戴整齐,等了几个小时,应该是“有耐心地”。
46.A 站在那里一等就是几个小时,因此答案是A。
47.C 对时间的推测。表时间用it作主语。
48.B 聚集了所有的力气,因此答案是B。
49.A 根据下文,就在老人面前停了下来,因此这里应该是跑过去。
50.C 由上句可排除A。right作副词,“就在”老人面前,较为恰当。
51.D 与本段第一句中left用法一样。[来源:21世纪教育网]
52.A 从下句看着老人的眼乞求原谅可看出没说话,排除B、C、D。
53.B rolling down是“滚下”,此处是眼泪流下。
54.D 根据上文老人流泪但却没说话可以判断出老人“只”能张开双臂欢迎,应选simply。
55.C with open arms“张开双臂”。
56.D 画线单词所在句句意:丛林中有美好的东西,也有危险的事物,但是在正确的引导、教育和预防措施下,因特网也可起到安全的指导作用。选项D最接近。
57.D 由文章第三段第六句可知,使孩子们远离网上不健康内容的最好办法就是让他们知道在网上应该看什么,不该看什么。故选D项。
58.D 文章主要讲的是怎样使孩子远离网络里的不健康内容,由此可见,网络中有很多不健康网址,故D项符合文意。
59.C 本文介绍了一些避免孩子接触网络中的不良信息和网址的方法,这些都属于预防措施,故选C项。
60.A 由文章第三段知年老被认为是一种令人伤心的事情。
61.D 由文章第五段知政府支付不起老年人的医药费用,许多老人在病好之前就不得不离开医院,但并不是严格限制住院时间。
62.B 从文章最后两段可以判断。
63.B 由最后一段可知,该词指代的是美国的老年人。他们不再接受白发、秃顶等问题,而是花钱做保养,使他们看起来更年轻。21世纪教育网
64.A 文章主要介绍了要想在传媒行业从事工作,应该如何去做,如参加培训计划、免费工作等。第一段的第一句就提示了文章的主题,因此A选项为 最佳答案。B、C、D选项都只反映文章部分的细节内容,不能全面反映文章的主题。

75. List 76.dislike
77. Delay 78.Pick

Dear Ralph,
I’m a senior middle school student and busy with my studies. I have one problem that troubles me all the time. It is the relationship between my father and me. My father is a university professor, who works hard and is very strict with me, but finds little time to talk to me. I love him though I’m a bit afraid of him because he loses temper easily.
Maybe it’s just because we have few chances to exchange our feelings and thoughts. I do hope we can get closer and have a talk together so as to have a better understanding of each other. I really don’t know what to do. I wonder if you can give me some advice.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
