参考范文：
Dear Mayor,
I am a middle school student. I’m writing to tell you about the traffic problem facing us.
Our school is located near the main street—Zhongyuan Road, and many students have to cross the street before entering the schoolyard. During the rush hour we have to thread our way between the moving cars and buses, which is very dangerous. In order to make sure of the safety, many parents have to send and pick up their children to and from school every day. As a result, the street near our school is always blocked with walking people and passing cars.
I think the government should take some measures to solve this problem. In my opinion, an overpass should be built or Zhongyuan Road should be widened to prevent accidents from happening.
I am looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

五、书面表达
假如你是李华。上周六你在一家商店里新买的手机出现了问题：有时发不出去短信，有时摄像功能不能正常运行。你已经去了店里两次，但问题仍然没有得到解决，所以你决定给该店的经理写一封投诉信。
答案与解析
一、单项选择
1. D。be aware of 意为“意识到”，修饰形容词aware要用well/ fully等副词，而不用very。
2. B。句意：——你作业犯了那么多错误是怎么了？——我自己还没有弄清楚呢。根据句意，应该选B，come about意思是“发生”；occur to sb. 被某人想起；occur可以表示“发生”；bring about意思是“造成、导致”，后面接结果，此句中it所指代的是后面的that从句，是主语，不是bring about的宾语，所以不合题意。get down (从)……下来，写下。
3. A。考查动词短语辨析。根据“有人提出一个有趣的建议……”，因此选put forward，表示“提出(建议、点子)”。put down“记下来，镇压”；give off “发出，放出(光、热等)”；set out“出发，着手”。
4. C。句意：面试者对那些受教育水平低的申请者有偏见。resistance 抵抗，反抗；boycott 抵制；prejudice 偏见；objection 反对。只有prejudice符合句意。
5. A。句意：我在美国住了20年，但是我很少像现在这样感到如此孤独。此处要用现在完成时，且seldom位于分句的句首，所以第二个分句要部分倒装，所以选A。
6. C。interrupt有“使(某活动)中断”之意。句意：因为电力供应中断，工厂的生产被中断长达十小时之久。
7. B。从句意来看，空缺处应该是“依我之见”，故只有B项符合题意。in my mind“在我的记忆中”；in general“一般来说”；in brief“简单地说”。
8. C。考查动词词义辨析。句意：令这对夫妇欣慰的是，他们的独生子经过两个月的治疗完全康复了。reform改革，改善；refresh使精神振作；restore恢复(健康)，修复，restore sb. to health“使某人恢复健康”；renew使更新，重新开始，恢复精力。
9. A。accuse sb. of sth,/ doing sth. 指责某人做某事；defend sb. against sth. 保护某人抵制某事。根据句意，选A。
10. D。句意：我对英语口语理解这方面有些困难。there is some difficulty with sth. 是固定搭配，意为“做……有困难”。
11. C。every time每次，名词词组充当连词，引导时间状语从句。
12. A。句意：自从来到这里，我还从未见过像Maggie这么可爱的女孩呢。“so/as/how/too＋adj.＋a/an＋n.”或“such＋a/an＋adj.＋n.”为固定结构。
13. C。put up with“容忍，忍受”，符合句意。keep up with 跟上；come up with 想起；catch up with 赶上，均不符合句意。
14. B。句意：珍妮，如果你继续和他交往下去，你一定会遭大难。leave for 赶往某地；search for 到处找寻；head 使开往（前往），都不合题意。head for 将来碰到（遭到）。
15. A。involve意思是“使某人参与，牵涉”，与his wife是被动关系，而且与his wife一起作介词of的宾语，所以用动词-ing形式的被动形式，所以选A。句意：Terry不喜欢他妻子参与那件事。
二、完形填空
本文讲述了作者在孩提时代与父亲之间的一些故事。浓浓的父爱使作者对童年有着美好的回忆。
16．B。并列连接词“and”暗示空格处的词语应与后面的“love”同属褒义词，所以可先排除C和D项；再结合文章开头和下文可知文章讲的是美好的回忆，所以答案为B。
17．D。下文“Any kind of 18 ride seemed to give him pleasure.”和“he loved to fish”暗示父亲非常喜欢水上活动，故选love。
18．A。根据上文可知应选A，与水有关的活动是乘船。
19．C。上句提到乘船能给父亲带来乐趣，后面提到父亲喜欢钓鱼，所以用and表示递进关系。
20．D。前文谈到父亲喜欢水上活动，the way my father did相当于my father liked being on the water。“我”喜欢在水中嬉戏而父亲喜欢水上活动。
21．A。句子的主干是I liked being in the water，后面的moving through it和having it all around me为现在分词短语作状语，表示伴随。have后带介词短语作宾语补足语，表示使某人或某物处于某种状态。
22．A。由语境可知，这里指“我”并不十分擅长游泳，故选A。
23．D。前文提到“我”没有很早地学游泳，根据常理推测小孩子心中害怕水。
24．A。句意为：“我”喜欢在离父亲办公室很近的那个游泳池里游泳，与父亲一起度过夏日。
25．B。这里would表示“过去常常(做某事)”。should意为“应该”，had to“不得不”，ought to“应该”。
26．B。通常出现在游泳池里的人都穿着泳装，而“我”父亲则穿着西服，因此他是唯一(only)不穿泳装的人。
27．D。由下文“我”在父亲办公室里玩耍可知应选D。游泳结束后，“我”总是到父亲的办公室里玩耍。
28．C。put up意为“张贴，搭建，为某人提供食宿”；break down机器出故障，身体垮掉，感情失去控制，分解；work out计算出，想出；play with与……一起玩，玩弄。由下文“...I shouldn’t be playing with his...”可知此处应选C项。
29．C。the moment意为“一……就……”；the first time意为“第一次……”；while意为“在……期间”；before意为“在……之前”。在父亲去实验室工作期间，“我”就一个人待在他办公桌旁。
30．B。上文提到“我”从父亲的办公室抽屉里找东西玩，故选B。
31．C。stand up意为“站起来”；set out意为“出发，开始”；turn out意为“结果是，被证明是”；show up“出场，到场”。只有C项符合语境。
32．A。“Oh，no，it’s fine．”表示“没关系”，由句首的But可知父亲允许“我”玩他办公室的东西。
33．C。此处指父亲给“我”钱，让“我”给自己买冰淇淋吃。
34．A。文章开头的“my memory”和下文的“our memories”暗示这里应填memory。
35．B。此处构成not only…but(also)结构，且最后一句为强调句。
三、阅读理解
36．A。第二则广告中：Applicants best suited for this work should enjoy teenagers... (最适合这份工作的人应是喜欢十几岁的孩子的人)。依此推断A为最佳选项。
37．C。第一则广告中：Six months’ preparation in Denmark...，由此推断选C。
38．B。第三则广告中说：I can teach Chinese or do house and garden work...，由此推断B是最佳选项。
39．D。第四则广告第三句：You don’t need any special knowledge other than understanding and speaking English...(除了能理解和说英语外，你不需要具备任何专门知识)。
40．B。做此题千万要小心，因为题干是问“这篇文章最不可能出现在哪个地方?”粗心的同学马上会选择A项，正中设计者的圈套。
四、语法填空
（1）
1. Surprising。此句是省略句，省略了It is，所以填surprising，表示事物的性质，意为“令人吃惊的”。
2.remained。与上文的existed并列，所以用一般过去时。
3. until/till。“remained in fashion”一直持续到清朝末期。until/till 到……为止。
4. necessity。view… as 把……看成，介词as后应接名词，所以填necessary的名词necessity，意为“必需品”。
5. the。the same 意为“同样的”。
6. Otherwise。从上下文可知，此处填otherwise，表示“否则的话”。
7. her。从上文可知，新娘的邻居会看不起新娘，用代词her代替“新娘”。
8. in。cases意为“情况”，which代替cases在定语从句中作要填的介词in的宾语，意为“在……情况下”。
9. way/means。way和means意为“方法、方式”。
10. arranged。婚礼是被“安排”的，arrange与marriages是被动关系，用过去分词作定语。
（2）
1. may。根据句意“一个国家所接受的东西可能在另一个国家被认为相当粗鲁”，应该填may。
2. and。“the modern table manners”与上文“the traditional table manners”并列，所以填并列连词and。
3. Traditionally。traditionally 传统上，按传统。
4. set。set与上文的cook并列，省略了不定式符号的to。set the table在桌子上摆放餐具。
5. bybeside。从下文可知妻子要照顾丈夫吃饭，所以应该是坐在丈夫“旁边（by/beside）”。
6. after。只有丈夫吃完后（after），女人和孩子才会吃饭。
7. All。“所有的”的家庭成员一起吃饭。
8. including。从句子的上半部分可知已经有了谓语is，include要用非谓语动词，因为everyone与include（包括）是主动关系，用including。
9. Staying。从谓语动词is可知要填的词stay是主语，所以用其-ing形式。
10. a。a basic tradition 一种基本的传统/惯例。
五、书面表达
Dear Manager,
I am writing to complain about the quality of one of your products. Last Saturday, with the recommendation of your salesperson, I bought a cellphone from your shop. After using the cellphone for two days, I found there was something wrong with it.
First, the cellphone could not send text messages sometimes, which has caused me a lot of trouble. Second, its camera failed to work from time to time. I have been to your shop to explain the problems twice. But it seemed that no one wanted to respond to my complaint. So I am writing to tell you directly in the hope that you will do something to solve this problem. I would appreciate it if you could either give me a refund or send me a replacement.
I look forward to an early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
