21．He ______ a bird，but he didn't ______ it．
A．shot；shoot B．shot at；shoot at

22．The poor man，______，ran out of the dark cave．
A．trembled and frightened
B．trembling and frightened
C．trembled and frightening
D． trembling and frightening
答案：B 解析：tremble是不及物动词，故用其现在分词形式作定语；frighten作“使惊恐”讲时是及物动词，故用其过去分词形式。
23．It was only when he discovered that everyone else applying for the job was more qualified ______ he began to worry．
A．that B．what
C．which D．who
答案：A 解析：考查强调句型。句意：当他发现申请这份工作的其他人都更有资格时他开始担心起来。此处为强调句型，强调句子的时间状语，故选that。
24．Not ______ to the cold weather there，he had to come back home again．
A．accustoming B．accustomed
C．being accustomed D．to accustomed
答案：B 解析：句意为“因为不习惯那里寒冷的天气，他只能又回家了”。过去分词accustomed作状语，用not进行否定。

A．mindless B．unaware
C．brainless D．unconscious

26．______ from the top of the hill，the city takes the round shape with a flowing river through it．

C．Viewed D．To be viewing
答案：C 解析：考查非谓语动词。view和句子的主语the city是动宾关系，所以需要用被动形式，因此将A项和D项排除。B项表将来或目的，不合逻辑，所以选择C项。
27．John has really got the job because he showed me the official letter______him it．
A．offered B．offering
C．to offer D．to be offered
答案：B 解析：句意为“约翰真的得到那份工作了，因为他给我看了那封提供给他工作的正式信函”。offering him it作the official letter的后置定语，the official letter与offer 之间是主动关系，故用现在分词形式。
28．The lecture，______ at 7：00 pm last night，was followed by an observation of the moon with telescopes．
A．starting B．being started
C．to start D．to be started
答案：A 解析：两个逗号之间的部分作定语，修饰the lecture，被修饰词the lecture与定语中的start为主动关系，应使用现在分词短语作定语，该定语可转换为定语从句which started at 7：00 pm last night。B项为being done结构，作定语时，表示“正在被……”；D项为动词不定式的被动式，作定语时表示“将要被……”。

A．have intended；was raining
B．intended；had rained
C．have intended；rained

答案：C 解析：本题考查名词的辨析。句意：这个地区的河水还在持续上涨，这可能会对村民们未来的生活造成严重的后果。因此选表示“后果”的C项。pollution“污染”；loss “损失，丢失”，后面常接介词of；suffering“苦难”。
31．In case of another disaster，the local government will see to______all the new buildings are much safer than the ones before．
A．it B．that
C．it that D．that it

35．Our school has changed all the office ______ for us at the beginning of the term．

第三部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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。
A
Studies show that smoking is bad for a person's health．Even being around a person who is smoking can be unhealthy．It is called “second hand smoke”．Smoking is very bad for children．It may become illegal in California for a person to smoke in a car when children are present．
The California Senate（参议院）is considering a bill（议案）that would make it a crime to smoke in the car when children are inside．This bill, which would be called SB7，was raised by a Democratic（民主党的）Senator from Long Beach．The Senator thinks it can protect children's health and that anyone who breaks the law should be fined $100 for each offence（违法行为）．She believes that this would make people think twice about smoking when children are in the car．
However, some people do not like this bill．They say that it gives the government too much control over what people choose to do．A Republican（共和党的） Senator from Grass Valley does not support the bill．He says that he knows smoking can be dangerous and won't allow anyone to smoke in his car when his grandchildren are inside．But he does not think it's necessary for the government to tell people what they can or cannot do in their homes or cars．It's the parents who have the right to decide．He believes that this bill infringes_on parents' rights．
The governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger has not said whether he would sign the bill to make it a law or not．But when he was asked what he thought about adults smoking in cars when children were inside，he said that he thought it was terrible．
56．According to the Senator from Long Beach, if the smokers are fined they would______．
A．disagree with the new bill
B．think twice about their actions
C．avoid taking their children along when driving
D．give up smoking in the future completely
答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“She believes that this would make people think twice about smoking when children are in the car.”可知，被罚的人会重新考虑在有孩子的车里吸烟这件事。
57．Some people do not like the bill because______．
A．they believe parents can decide what they should do and not do
B．they think people can do whatever they want in their cars or homes
C．they think it may make the government control people too much
D．they believe this bill goes against most parents' will
答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段“However，some people do not like this bill. They say that it gives the government too much control over what people choose to do.”可知，一些人对这一法案持反对态度是因为他们认为那样会让政府有太多的控制权。故选C项。
58．What's the attitude of Arnold Schwarzenegger towards smoking in cars when children are inside?
A．Negative． B．Positive．
C．Doubtful． D．Uncertain．
答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一句话“But when he was asked what he thought about adults smoking in cars when children were inside, he said that he thought it was terrible.”可知，阿诺德·施瓦辛格不赞成孩子在车里时成年人吸烟。
59．The passage is mainly about ______．
A．a discussion to protect parents' rights in California
B．a bill to forbid smoking in cars when children are inside
C．different opinions on smoking in cars
D．the bad effects of second hand smoke
答案：B 解析：主旨大意题。本文涉及一项关于在有孩子的车里吸烟的法案，因此选B项。
B
A California family drives a car that could help protect the environment．
When Jon and Sandy go to the store or to their daughters' soccer games，they drive in high tech style．They drive a $1 million，fuel cell powered car．It may be the world's most expensive car and one of the most environmentally friendly cars．
The FCX is the first fuel cell powered car to be used by a family anywhere in the world．The FCX uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel．
Car makers have been working to develop vehicles that are better for the environment．They are developing cars that use fuel other than gasoline．
What is fuel cell technology?
Fuel cell technology works by changing the chemicals hydrogen and oxygen into water．This process produces electricity，and water vapor which comes out of the exhaust pipe．Most cars release dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide （一氧化碳）and carbon dioxide．Many scientists say these gases are major contributors to global warming．
“The FCX is driven just like any other vehicle on the road，but without the gases which pollute the environment，”scientists say．
Fuel cell technology has been around since the 1800s，but scientists have yet been to perfect it．They say it may take years before the technology is ready for widespread use．
Creating environmentally friendly cars
Another earth friendly car is already on the market．Hybrid cars use both gasoline and an electric motor．They are becoming more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency．
60．Which of the following about the FCX is not true?
A．It may be the most expensive car in the world．
B．It is one of the most environmentally friendly cars．
C．It releases dangerous gases to pollute the air．
D．It uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel other than gasoline．
答案：C 解析：细节理解题。从第二段中的“It may be... one of the most environmentally friendly cars.”和第六段中的“... but without the gases which pollute the environment... ”等处可判断答案为C项。
61．According to the passage，what is the major cause for global warming?
A．Gases from FCX．
B．Water vapor from cars．
C．Hydrogen and oxygen．
D．Gases from cars．
答案：D 解析：细节理解题。由第五段尾句“很多科学家声称这些气体（一氧化碳和二氧化碳）是造成全球变暖的主要因素”可知答案。
62．From the passage，we know that fuel cell technology______．
A．works by water
B．has a history for over two hundred years
C．works by electricity
D．has been widely used since the 1800s
答案：B 解析：细节理解题。由倒数第二段“燃料电池技术19世纪始就已存在，但科学家们却一直在完善它”可判断出该技术“有200余年的历史”。
63．We can infer from the passage that______．
A．future cars will be environmentally friendly
B．there will be no gasoline for cars
C．people can't afford to buy cars in the future
D．global warming has been stopped
答案：A 解析：推理判断题。从短文最后一句话“They are becoming more popular with customers... ”可推断A项正确，其他选项在文中没有依据。
C
Creating a healthy balance between work and home is no simple task，especially in today's fast paced work environment．With work life and home life out of balance，stress is running high in most families．If you spend more time at work，you lose out on your family and personal life．On the other hand，if you spend more time on your personal life，such as caring for your aging parents，you are unable to concentrate on your job．
Whether you focus too much on your personal life，or your work life，the outcome is the same—STRESS．There is a great need to regain control over your life．The following is a look at how you can face the ongoing challenges to reduce stress and keep harmony between your work and your personal life．
·Check for Flexibility at Work—Find out if your employer offers flexible work hours，to enable you to deal with your personal problems．
·Find Ways to Release Stress—Take out time to do things that you enjoy doing，such as listening to music，reading，etc．Set aside one night a week specially for your family to find activities that will make all of you happy．
·Ensure You Get Enough Sleep—There is nothing more stressful than being sleep deprived．This will not only affect your productivity，but can also cause you to make potentially dangerous and costly mistakes．
·Seek Help—In times of stress，seek help from professionals or from your personal support network．Everyone needs help，and you are no different．Seek help if you find your life too chaotic to manage．
In the end，you need to set your priorities（最重要的事情）．You need to decide what is more important in your life—spending time with your family，or concentrating on your work．
64．What is the best title for the passage?
A．Choices Between Work and Home
B．How to Create a Healthy Balance Between Work and Home
C．Ways to Concentrate on Your Work
D．The Best Way to Reduce Stress
答案：B 解析：主旨大意题。本文第一句“Creating a healthy balance between work and home is no simple task... ”及第二段中“... and keep harmony between your work and your personal life.”都说明了本文主旨是谈如何在工作和家庭中保持平衡。
65．It can be inferred from the passage that______．
A．arranging one's time for work and home well can reduce stress
B．for a woman，family should come first in her life
C．it is impossible for a person to reduce stress
D．the ways the author mentions can get rid of stress
答案：A 解析：推理判断题。由第一段中“With work life and home life out of balance，stress is running high in most families.”可推出，如果安排好工作和家庭生活，即保持家庭和工作的平衡，压力就不会那么大。
66．Which of the following should NOT be done to reduce stress?
A．Asking for advice．
B．Getting enough sleep．
C．Finishing work at the office．
D．Squeezing out some time to do what you enjoy．
答案：C 解析：A项从Seek Help中可知；B项从Ensure You Get Enough Sleep中可知；D项从Find Ways to Release Stress中可知：拿出一定的时间做自己喜欢做的事能够减轻压力；而C项在文中并未提及。
D
Scientists in the United States have developed a computer program that they say could provide an early warning of major earthquakes．The new system is designed to give warning seconds before an earthquake strikes．
That may not sound very long．However，it could give people time to get under a table or take shelter someplace safe．The flow of electric power or gas could be cut off．Air traffic controllers could warn away pilots．Even so called“smart buildings”could be designed to get ready．
The system uses a mathematical program to measure information collected by instruments deployed across the Los Angeles area．Southern California has more than 150 seismic（地震的）stations that measure movements within the ground．The information they collect is sent to a high speed computer．
An earthquake shakes the ground with two kinds of waves．The new system uses information from a low energy wave that moves quickly but causes little damage．Experts call this the P wave．The slower but stronger S wave is the main threat to life and property．Japan has a system based on P waves．There，the warnings are used to slow down high speed bullet trains．Other countries have warning systems that measure S waves．
The new system is designed to estimate the strength of the earthquake once the shaking starts．Areas directly above the center of the earthquake would have the least warning．Distant places might have as long as forty seconds．
The scientists are still testing proposed（提议的）system in the Los Angeles area．Professor Allen notes that an early warning system for earthquakes would require a major campaign of public education．
67．Which of the following is TRUE about the new earthquake warning system?
A．It can give people enough time to run away from earthquakes．
B．It can give people seconds to take immediate measures．
C．It is developed in Japan．
D．It is a system based on S waves．
答案：B 解析：细节理解题。由文章的首段第二句“The new system is designed to give warning seconds before an earthquake strikes.”可以看出：新的地震警报系统能在地震发生前的数秒钟发出警报，让人们有短暂的时间采取紧急措施，故选B项。
68．Which of the following can benefit from the new system most?
A．Areas far away from the center of the earthquake．
B．Areas directly above the center of the earthquake．
C．The Los Angeles area．
D．High speed bullet trains．
答案：A 解析：细节理解题。由倒数第二段的最后两句“Areas directly above the center of the earthquake would have the least warning.Distant places might have as long as forty seconds.”可以推断出A项正确。
69．What do we learn from the passage?
A．People could cut off electric power or gas immediately after the new system gives a warning．
B．A low energy wave may move slowly and cause little damage．
C．Japan has a warning system based on S waves to slow down bullet trains．
D．The new system has been employed in warning of major earthquakes all over the United States．
答案：A 解析：细节理解题。由第二段的第三句“The flow of electric power or gas could be cut off.”可以看出，虽然在地震前的几秒钟才能发出警报但足够人们去切断电源和煤气。
70．What's the best title for the passage?
A．A New Earthquake Warning System
B．Earthquakes in Different Countries
C．Warning Systems in Different Countries
D．The Principle of a New Warning System
答案：A 解析：主旨大意题。综观全文可以看出：文章主要是讲述了一种新的地震警报系统，而且第一段也明确点出了主题。

21．He ______ a bird，but he didn't ______ it．
A．shot；shoot B．shot at；shoot at

22．The poor man，______，ran out of the dark cave．
A．trembled and frightened
B．trembling and frightened
C．trembled and frightening
D． trembling and frightening
答案：B 解析：tremble是不及物动词，故用其现在分词形式作定语；frighten作“使惊恐”讲时是及物动词，故用其过去分词形式。
23．It was only when he discovered that everyone else applying for the job was more qualified ______ he began to worry．
A．that B．what
C．which D．who
答案：A 解析：考查强调句型。句意：当他发现申请这份工作的其他人都更有资格时他开始担心起来。此处为强调句型，强调句子的时间状语，故选that。
24．Not ______ to the cold weather there，he had to come back home again．
A．accustoming B．accustomed
C．being accustomed D．to accustomed
答案：B 解析：句意为“因为不习惯那里寒冷的天气，他只能又回家了”。过去分词accustomed作状语，用not进行否定。
25．Jane was hit on the head by the robber and was knocked ______．
A．mindless B．unaware
C．brainless D．unconscious
答案：D 解析：句意为“简被抢劫犯击中头部，失去了知觉”。mindless“没头脑的，愚蠢的”；unaware“不知道的，未察觉到的”；brainless“愚笨的”；unconscious“不省人事的，失去知觉的”。
26．______ from the top of the hill，the city takes the round shape with a flowing river through it．
A．Viewing B．To be viewed
C．Viewed D．To be viewing

27．John has really got the job because he showed me the official letter______him it．
A．offered B．offering
C．to offer D．to be offered
答案：B 解析：句意为“约翰真的得到那份工作了，因为他给我看了那封提供给他工作的正式信函”。offering him it作the official letter的后置定语，the official letter与offer 之间是主动关系，故用现在分词形式。
28．The lecture，______ at 7：00 pm last night，was followed by an observation of the moon with telescopes．
A．starting B．being started
C．to start D．to be started
答案：A 解析：两个逗号之间的部分作定语，修饰the lecture，被修饰词the lecture与定语中的start为主动关系，应使用现在分词短语作定语，该定语可转换为定语从句which started at 7：00 pm last night。B项为being done结构，作定语时，表示“正在被……”；D项为动词不定式的被动式，作定语时表示“将要被……”。

A．have intended；was raining
B．intended；had rained
C．have intended；rained

A．pollution B．losses
C．consequences D．suffering
答案：C 解析：本题考查名词的辨析。句意：这个地区的河水还在持续上涨，这可能会对村民们未来的生活造成严重的后果。因此选表示“后果”的C项。pollution“污染”；loss “损失，丢失”，后面常接介词of；suffering“苦难”。
31．In case of another disaster，the local government will see to______all the new buildings are much safer than the ones before．
A．it B．that
C．it that D．that it
答案：C 解析：see to it that是固定搭配，意为“务必，确保”。

B．Having lost his cell phone

35．Our school has changed all the office ______ for us at the beginning of the term．
A．equipments B．equipment
C．instruments D．instrument

第三部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30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。
A
Studies show that smoking is bad for a person's health．Even being around a person who is smoking can be unhealthy．It is called “second hand smoke”．Smoking is very bad for children．It may become illegal in California for a person to smoke in a car when children are present．
The California Senate（参议院）is considering a bill（议案）that would make it a crime to smoke in the car when children are inside．This bill, which would be called SB7，was raised by a Democratic（民主党的）Senator from Long Beach．The Senator thinks it can protect children's health and that anyone who breaks the law should be fined $100 for each offence（违法行为）．She believes that this would make people think twice about smoking when children are in the car．
However, some people do not like this bill．They say that it gives the government too much control over what people choose to do．A Republican（共和党的） Senator from Grass Valley does not support the bill．He says that he knows smoking can be dangerous and won't allow anyone to smoke in his car when his grandchildren are inside．But he does not think it's necessary for the government to tell people what they can or cannot do in their homes or cars．It's the parents who have the right to decide．He believes that this bill infringes_on parents' rights．
The governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger has not said whether he would sign the bill to make it a law or not．But when he was asked what he thought about adults smoking in cars when children were inside，he said that he thought it was terrible．
56．According to the Senator from Long Beach, if the smokers are fined they would______．
A．disagree with the new bill
B．think twice about their actions
C．avoid taking their children along when driving
D．give up smoking in the future completely
答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“She believes that this would make people think twice about smoking when children are in the car.”可知，被罚的人会重新考虑在有孩子的车里吸烟这件事。

答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段“However，some people do not like this bill. They say that it gives the government too much control over what people choose to do.”可知，一些人对这一法案持反对态度是因为他们认为那样会让政府有太多的控制权。故选C项。
58．What's the attitude of Arnold Schwarzenegger towards smoking in cars when children are inside?
A．Negative． B．Positive．
C．Doubtful． D．Uncertain．
答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一句话“But when he was asked what he thought about adults smoking in cars when children were inside, he said that he thought it was terrible.”可知，阿诺德·施瓦辛格不赞成孩子在车里时成年人吸烟。
59．The passage is mainly about ______．
A．a discussion to protect parents' rights in California
B．a bill to forbid smoking in cars when children are inside

A California family drives a car that could help protect the environment．
When Jon and Sandy go to the store or to their daughters' soccer games，they drive in high tech style．They drive a $1 million，fuel cell powered car．It may be the world's most expensive car and one of the most environmentally friendly cars．
The FCX is the first fuel cell powered car to be used by a family anywhere in the world．The FCX uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel．
Car makers have been working to develop vehicles that are better for the environment．They are developing cars that use fuel other than gasoline．
What is fuel cell technology?
Fuel cell technology works by changing the chemicals hydrogen and oxygen into water．This process produces electricity，and water vapor which comes out of the exhaust pipe．Most cars release dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide （一氧化碳）and carbon dioxide．Many scientists say these gases are major contributors to global warming．
“The FCX is driven just like any other vehicle on the road，but without the gases which pollute the environment，”scientists say．
Fuel cell technology has been around since the 1800s，but scientists have yet been to perfect it．They say it may take years before the technology is ready for widespread use．
Creating environmentally friendly cars
Another earth friendly car is already on the market．Hybrid cars use both gasoline and an electric motor．They are becoming more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency．
60．Which of the following about the FCX is not true?
A．It may be the most expensive car in the world．

Creating a healthy balance between work and home is no simple task，especially in today's fast paced work environment．With work life and home life out of balance，stress is running high in most families．If you spend more time at work，you lose out on your family and personal life．On the other hand，if you spend more time on your personal life，such as caring for your aging parents，you are unable to concentrate on your job．
Whether you focus too much on your personal life，or your work life，the outcome is the same—STRESS．There is a great need to regain control over your life．The following is a look at how you can face the ongoing challenges to reduce stress and keep harmony between your work and your personal life．
·Check for Flexibility at Work—Find out if your employer offers flexible work hours，to enable you to deal with your personal problems．
·Find Ways to Release Stress—Take out time to do things that you enjoy doing，such as listening to music，reading，etc．Set aside one night a week specially for your family to find activities that will make all of you happy．
·Ensure You Get Enough Sleep—There is nothing more stressful than being sleep deprived．This will not only affect your productivity，but can also cause you to make potentially dangerous and costly mistakes．
·Seek Help—In times of stress，seek help from professionals or from your personal support network．Everyone needs help，and you are no different．Seek help if you find your life too chaotic to manage．
In the end，you need to set your priorities（最重要的事情）．You need to decide what is more important in your life—spending time with your family，or concentrating on your work．

Scientists in the United States have developed a computer program that they say could provide an early warning of major earthquakes．The new system is designed to give warning seconds before an earthquake strikes．
That may not sound very long．However，it could give people time to get under a table or take shelter someplace safe．The flow of electric power or gas could be cut off．Air traffic controllers could warn away pilots．Even so called“smart buildings”could be designed to get ready．
The system uses a mathematical program to measure information collected by instruments deployed across the Los Angeles area．Southern California has more than 150 seismic（地震的）stations that measure movements within the ground．The information they collect is sent to a high speed computer．
An earthquake shakes the ground with two kinds of waves．The new system uses information from a low energy wave that moves quickly but causes little damage．Experts call this the P wave．The slower but stronger S wave is the main threat to life and property．Japan has a system based on P waves．There，the warnings are used to slow down high speed bullet trains．Other countries have warning systems that measure S waves．
The new system is designed to estimate the strength of the earthquake once the shaking starts．Areas directly above the center of the earthquake would have the least warning．Distant places might have as long as forty seconds．
The scientists are still testing proposed（提议的）system in the Los Angeles area．Professor Allen notes that an early warning system for earthquakes would require a major campaign of public education．
67．Which of the following is TRUE about the new earthquake warning system?
A．It can give people enough time to run away from earthquakes．
B．It can give people seconds to take immediate measures．
C．It is developed in Japan．
D．It is a system based on S waves．
答案：B 解析：细节理解题。由文章的首段第二句“The new system is designed to give warning seconds before an earthquake strikes.”可以看出：新的地震警报系统能在地震发生前的数秒钟发出警报，让人们有短暂的时间采取紧急措施，故选B项。
68．Which of the following can benefit from the new system most?
A．Areas far away from the center of the earthquake．
B．Areas directly above the center of the earthquake．
C．The Los Angeles area．
D．High speed bullet trains．
答案：A 解析：细节理解题。由倒数第二段的最后两句“Areas directly above the center of the earthquake would have the least warning.Distant places might have as long as forty seconds.”可以推断出A项正确。
69．What do we learn from the passage?
A．People could cut off electric power or gas immediately after the new system gives a warning．
B．A low energy wave may move slowly and cause little damage．
C．Japan has a warning system based on S waves to slow down bullet trains．
D．The new system has been employed in warning of major earthquakes all over the United States．
答案：A 解析：细节理解题。由第二段的第三句“The flow of electric power or gas could be cut off.”可以看出，虽然在地震前的几秒钟才能发出警报但足够人们去切断电源和煤气。
70．What's the best title for the passage?
A．A New Earthquake Warning System
B．Earthquakes in Different Countries
C．Warning Systems in Different Countries
D．The Principle of a New Warning System
答案：A 解析：主旨大意题。综观全文可以看出：文章主要是讲述了一种新的地震警报系统，而且第一段也明确点出了主题。
