At an outdoor restaurant, a cockroach(蟑螂) flew in and landed on a woman. She started screaming out of fear; with a panic-stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was spreading, as everyone in her group also got into a panic. The woman finally managed to flick the cockroach away hut it landed on a man in the group who continued the drama. In the relay(接力赛) of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon a waitress who had rushed to their rescue.
The waitress stood firm, calmed herself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on her blouse. When she was confident enough, she grabbed it and threw it out of the restaurant.
Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, I started wondering: was the cockroach responsible for their funny behavior If so, then why was the waitress not disturbed She handled the situation to near perfection, without panic.
It was not the cockroach, but the inability of the customers to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach that disturbed them. I realized that it was not the shouting of my children or my boss or my wife, but my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbed me.
It’s not the traffic jams on the road that disturb me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam. More than the problem, it’s my reaction to the problem that creates chaos in my life.
I understood. I should not react in life. I should always respond. The customers reacted, while the waitress responded. Reactions are always instinctive(本能的） , while responses tend to he well thought out.

As has been all too apparent in recent days at Balcombe, few issues cause greater concern than energy policy. Many village communities feel their countryside is being ruined by the power-producing machines of wind farms; yet they never take "direct action", even though the planning laws put them at a severe disadvantage. And the generous subsidies, which encourage the expansion of wind power, are not favorable to the village communities and set landowners in conflict with other residents.
Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion to the benefits they bring, because their energy output cannot match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. Supporters insist that wind must be part of a mix of renewable resources, nuclear and carbon, and that the country is committed to meeting EU(European Union) targets for non-carbon energy generation.
Against this background, the fact that there is an argument within the Government over whether to publish an official report on wind farms' impact on the countryside becomes even more extraordinary. The two parties in the coalition government(联合政府) are in disagreement over what it should say.
We have some advice for the two parties: publish the report, and let the country be the judge. Even if it contains evidence that wind farms are harmful, it will hardly be a pleasant surprise to people who do not like them. Equally, supporters must argue their case by acknowledging the concerns and explaining why they are either misplaced or worthy of much attention.
The suggestion that further negotiations are to take place to produce an "acceptable" report suggests that the politics of coalition government are doing the country harm in a certain way. Given the sensitivities involved, all the information should be available so that people can reach their own conclusions, rather than being left with the suspicion that facts are being replaced by political beliefs.
1. We can learn from the first paragraph that______.
A. energy policy catches much attention of the public
B. the residents are in favor of the expansion of wind farms
C. many village communities are satisfied with the subsidies
D. the planning laws offer great benefits to the residents
2. Supporters think that the expansion of wind power______.
A. is more rapid than that of carbon-based power
B. guarantees an increase in energy output
C. is expected to be much better than that of nuclear power
D. agrees with EU targets for non-carbon energy generation
3. It can be inferred from the passage that______.
A. an official report will settle the energy problem
B. the two parties are divided over the issue of wind farms
C. the two parties have agreed on a further discussion
D. political beliefs concerning energy issue go against facts
4. Which of the following reflects the author's opinion
A. Increase political impact on energy policy.
B. Release a statement of supporters on wind farms.
C. Let the nation judge the facts about wind power.
D. Leave the two parties to reach their own conclusions.
D
In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 kms away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使…放心) me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”
I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
1.The author had to hitch a ride one clay in 1978 because_____.
A.her work delayed her trip to Sydney B.she was going home for her holidays
C.the town was far away from Sydney D.she missed the only train back home
2.Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2
A.He helped the girl find a ride. B.He gave the girl a ride back home.
C.He bought sandwiches for the girl. D.He watched the girl for three hours.
3.The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that______.
A.she realized he was Gordon B.she had known him for decades
C.she was going to the nearby town D.she wanted to repay the favour she once got
4.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story
A.Giving sometimes produces nice results. B.Those who give rides will be repaid.
C.Good manners bring about happiness. D.People should offer free rides to others.
二、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Much of the work in today's world is accomplished(完成) in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. ①_________ Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent
②_________ They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the team's performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn't evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team's performance.
To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate(协调) their actions. ③_________ In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team's performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, "There is no I in TEAM." ④_________
Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war(拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.
⑤_________ An A-team may require a balance—not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.
A. It's not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.
B. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.
C. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers' attention.
D. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.
E. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.
F. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.
G. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.
三、阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Wrapping paper flew everywhere as Jodi opened her gift. The box had a picture of a pretty girl in a red scarf. She was wearing white ice skates and dancing around a frozen pond.
Jodi looked up at her aunt and uncle with her big brown eyes. "Figure skates Wow! How nice of you! But," the little girl hesitated, "…but I don't know how to skate." She looked embarrassed.
"Don't worry," said Aunt Lisa. "That's the fun part-learning how to do it!"
"That's right," said Uncle George. "We will take you to the ice rink(溜冰场) and all go skating together."
Jodi wasn't too sure. Then she looked again at the happy girl on the box. It did look like fun. "Okay," she agreed. "Let's do it!"
The next day Jodi went to the skating rink with her aunt and uncle. Her eyes shone in excitement as she looked at the other skaters around her. Immediately she slipped her feet into the skates, and put on her helmet.
Her uncle helped her walk to the edge of the rink, and said, "We will hold your hands and you stand between us." Jodi took their hands in hers and made her first step onto the smooth ice.
"Whoa! This is slippery!" Jodi nearly fell over, but her aunt and uncle pulled up on her arms and she found her balance again. She grinned and tried taking a few steps. Her legs wanted to slide out in front of her, so she made her steps smaller. That seemed to help.
"Good, Jodi. Skate to your uncle now," her aunt said, pushing her on the back a little to get more speed. Jodi glided unsteadily towards her uncle, taking small steps and holding her arms wide for balance. Her uncle caught her and gave her a hug.

①根据上文可知,大多数人认为组建优秀团队的最好方式是将最有才能的个体聚集在一起;根据下文可知,公司花费巨资雇用商界精英。据此可以判断,B项"运动队的老板花费数百万美元以吸引最优秀的人才"正确。

12.考查形容词词义辨析。句意:他为大约20000人挖掘了最后的安息之地,每个坟墓都在半英尺深的坚硬冰冷的土中。A. hard 坚硬的;B. vast 巨大的;C. protected 受保护的;D. ruined 毁灭的。根据设空前的“a half feet deep (半英尺深)”以及设空后的“frozen ground(冰冷的泥土)”可知,此处用于描述死者的墓穴,用“坚硬的”最符合此处语境。故选A项。
13.考查名词词义辨析。句意:他是如此受人尊敬,以至于葬礼的负责人都会根据他是否有空来安排他们的日程。B. popularity 流行,普及;D. generosity 慷慨,大方;A. availability 可用性,可得到的(人或物),有空;C. responsibility 责任,义务。根据上文“He is so respected that funeral directors arrange their schedules (他是如此受人尊敬,以至于葬礼的负责人安排他们的日程)”可知,Johnny作为一个掘墓人,很受葬礼负责人的尊敬,所以他们会根据Johnny是否有空掘墓来安排他们的日程。故选C项。
14.考查形容词词义辨析。句意:所以,Johnny经常向别人伸出援手这件事就并不奇怪了。A. common 常见的,普通的,共同的;D. surprising 令人吃惊的;B. reasonable 合理的,公道的;C. disappointing 令人失望的;根据上文“‘I treat everybody as if it were my family I’m burying,’ he said. He is so respected that funeral directors arrange their schedules around his 13 . (‘我对待每个我埋葬的人都像对待自己的家人一样’他说。他是如此受人尊敬,以至于葬礼的负责人都会根据他是否有空来安排他们的日程)”可知,Jonny对每个人都很友善,在行业内非常受人尊敬,由此可推断,他经常向别人伸出援手这件事就并不奇怪了。故选D项。
15.考查动词词义辨析。句意:那天晚上,Johnny和他的妻子正准备离开时,乐队突然演奏了一首老歌。A. dancing 跳舞;B. walking 走路;C. leaving 离开;D. talking 谈话,讨论。分析句子结构可知,此处考查固定句型“be doing…when…(正在做……突然另一件事情发生了)”根据下文“when the band played an old song. They turned around for one more slow dance.(乐队突然演奏了一首老歌。他们转身又跳了一支慢舞)”可知,此处意为Johnny和他的妻子正准备“离开”。故选C项。
四、答案：①mixture ②Officially ③is considered ④have been conducting ⑤troubling ⑥which ⑦to say ⑧for ⑨industrial ⑩the
解析：① 考查词形转换。由空前的形容词frozen可知, 空处应该用名词, 由语境可知此处表示"混合物", 应填mixture。
② 考查副词。此处修饰动词要用副词。
③ 考查被动语态和主谓一致。根据语境可知, 可燃冰被认为是未来的一种燃料, 所以用被动语态; Combustible ice是不可数名词, 故空处应填is considered。
④ 考查时态。根据语境可知, 很多国家一直在研究可燃冰。此处表示从过去开始一直延续到现在并且未来还会持续下去的动作, 应用现在完成进行时。
⑤ 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知, problem与trouble之间是逻辑上的主谓关系, 所以用troubling all of them作后置定语。
⑥ 考查定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句, 且在从句中作主语, 指代前面整个句子, 所以用which。
⑦ 考查固定结构。too...to...意为"太......而不能......", 故填to say。
⑧ 考查介词。此处表示可燃冰的储量可供全世界的人们使用1000年, 所以用for。
⑨ 考查形容词。此处修饰名词use, 要用形容词industrial。
⑩ 考查冠词。人们最早要到2025年或许才能看到现实的商业价值。at the earliest表示"最早"。

At an outdoor restaurant, a cockroach(蟑螂) flew in and landed on a woman. She started screaming out of fear; with a panic-stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was spreading, as everyone in her group also got into a panic. The woman finally managed to flick the cockroach away hut it landed on a man in the group who continued the drama. In the relay(接力赛) of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon a waitress who had rushed to their rescue.
The waitress stood firm, calmed herself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on her blouse. When she was confident enough, she grabbed it and threw it out of the restaurant.
Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, I started wondering: was the cockroach responsible for their funny behavior If so, then why was the waitress not disturbed She handled the situation to near perfection, without panic.
It was not the cockroach, but the inability of the customers to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach that disturbed them. I realized that it was not the shouting of my children or my boss or my wife, but my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbed me.

As has been all too apparent in recent days at Balcombe, few issues cause greater concern than energy policy. Many village communities feel their countryside is being ruined by the power-producing machines of wind farms; yet they never take "direct action", even though the planning laws put them at a severe disadvantage. And the generous subsidies, which encourage the expansion of wind power, are not favorable to the village communities and set landowners in conflict with other residents.
Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion to the benefits they bring, because their energy output cannot match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. Supporters insist that wind must be part of a mix of renewable resources, nuclear and carbon, and that the country is committed to meeting EU(European Union) targets for non-carbon energy generation.
Against this background, the fact that there is an argument within the Government over whether to publish an official report on wind farms' impact on the countryside becomes even more extraordinary. The two parties in the coalition government(联合政府) are in disagreement over what it should say.
We have some advice for the two parties: publish the report, and let the country be the judge. Even if it contains evidence that wind farms are harmful, it will hardly be a pleasant surprise to people who do not like them. Equally, supporters must argue their case by acknowledging the concerns and explaining why they are either misplaced or worthy of much attention.
The suggestion that further negotiations are to take place to produce an "acceptable" report suggests that the politics of coalition government are doing the country harm in a certain way. Given the sensitivities involved, all the information should be available so that people can reach their own conclusions, rather than being left with the suspicion that facts are being replaced by political beliefs.
1. We can learn from the first paragraph that______.
A. energy policy catches much attention of the public
B. the residents are in favor of the expansion of wind farms
C. many village communities are satisfied with the subsidies
D. the planning laws offer great benefits to the residents
2. Supporters think that the expansion of wind power______.
A. is more rapid than that of carbon-based power
B. guarantees an increase in energy output
C. is expected to be much better than that of nuclear power
D. agrees with EU targets for non-carbon energy generation
3. It can be inferred from the passage that______.
A. an official report will settle the energy problem
B. the two parties are divided over the issue of wind farms
C. the two parties have agreed on a further discussion
D. political beliefs concerning energy issue go against facts
4. Which of the following reflects the author's opinion
A. Increase political impact on energy policy.
B. Release a statement of supporters on wind farms.
C. Let the nation judge the facts about wind power.
D. Leave the two parties to reach their own conclusions.
D
In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 kms away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使…放心) me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”
I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
1.The author had to hitch a ride one clay in 1978 because_____.
A.her work delayed her trip to Sydney B.she was going home for her holidays
C.the town was far away from Sydney D.she missed the only train back home
2.Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2
A.He helped the girl find a ride. B.He gave the girl a ride back home.
C.He bought sandwiches for the girl. D.He watched the girl for three hours.
3.The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that______.
A.she realized he was Gordon B.she had known him for decades
C.she was going to the nearby town D.she wanted to repay the favour she once got
4.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story
A.Giving sometimes produces nice results. B.Those who give rides will be repaid.
C.Good manners bring about happiness. D.People should offer free rides to others.
二、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Much of the work in today's world is accomplished(完成) in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. ①_________ Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent
②_________ They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the team's performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn't evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team's performance.
To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate(协调) their actions. ③_________ In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team's performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, "There is no I in TEAM." ④_________
Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war(拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.
⑤_________ An A-team may require a balance—not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.
A. It's not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.
B. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.
C. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers' attention.
D. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.
E. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.
F. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.
G. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.
三、阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Wrapping paper flew everywhere as Jodi opened her gift. The box had a picture of a pretty girl in a red scarf. She was wearing white ice skates and dancing around a frozen pond.
Jodi looked up at her aunt and uncle with her big brown eyes. "Figure skates Wow! How nice of you! But," the little girl hesitated, "…but I don't know how to skate." She looked embarrassed.
"Don't worry," said Aunt Lisa. "That's the fun part-learning how to do it!"
"That's right," said Uncle George. "We will take you to the ice rink(溜冰场) and all go skating together."
Jodi wasn't too sure. Then she looked again at the happy girl on the box. It did look like fun. "Okay," she agreed. "Let's do it!"
The next day Jodi went to the skating rink with her aunt and uncle. Her eyes shone in excitement as she looked at the other skaters around her. Immediately she slipped her feet into the skates, and put on her helmet.
Her uncle helped her walk to the edge of the rink, and said, "We will hold your hands and you stand between us." Jodi took their hands in hers and made her first step onto the smooth ice.
"Whoa! This is slippery!" Jodi nearly fell over, but her aunt and uncle pulled up on her arms and she found her balance again. She grinned and tried taking a few steps. Her legs wanted to slide out in front of her, so she made her steps smaller. That seemed to help.
"Good, Jodi. Skate to your uncle now," her aunt said, pushing her on the back a little to get more speed. Jodi glided unsteadily towards her uncle, taking small steps and holding her arms wide for balance. Her uncle caught her and gave her a hug.

四、答案：①mixture ②Officially ③is considered ④have been conducting ⑤troubling ⑥which ⑦to say ⑧for ⑨industrial ⑩the
解析：① 考查词形转换。由空前的形容词frozen可知, 空处应该用名词, 由语境可知此处表示"混合物", 应填mixture。
② 考查副词。此处修饰动词要用副词。
③ 考查被动语态和主谓一致。根据语境可知, 可燃冰被认为是未来的一种燃料, 所以用被动语态; Combustible ice是不可数名词, 故空处应填is considered。
④ 考查时态。根据语境可知, 很多国家一直在研究可燃冰。此处表示从过去开始一直延续到现在并且未来还会持续下去的动作, 应用现在完成进行时。
⑤ 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知, problem与trouble之间是逻辑上的主谓关系, 所以用troubling all of them作后置定语。
⑥ 考查定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句, 且在从句中作主语, 指代前面整个句子, 所以用which。
⑦ 考查固定结构。too...to...意为"太......而不能......", 故填to say。
⑧ 考查介词。此处表示可燃冰的储量可供全世界的人们使用1000年, 所以用for。
⑨ 考查形容词。此处修饰名词use, 要用形容词industrial。
