Every
employer
knows
that
hiring
the
RIGHT
people
for
the
RIGHT
job
is
an
important
organizational
need.
Not
only
you
have
the
RIGHT
people
produce
the
____11____results,
the
organization
also
gains
a
reputation
for
hiring
the
RIGHT
people.
Given
the
importance
of
this
need
–
it
___12___that
the
organization
must
have
the
RIGHT
processes
and
talent
attraction
programs.
Also
what
it
needs
are
the
right
types
of
questions
to
ask
the
____13____employee
during
the
interview
process.
Most
employers
I
know
have
very
elaborate
questions
and
views
on
what
they
expect
of
their
employees.
Naturally,
it
comes
as
easy
to
many
employers
during
the
interview
process
but
how
often
are
the
interviews
questions
____14____to
assess
the
skills
and
suitability
based
on
performance
alone?
Do
you
also
ask
questions
about
:
Employees’
likes
and
dislikes
in
terms
of
work.
For
example,
he
may
be
extremely
good
at
writing
proposals
but
he
is
____15____
of
doing
them
and
prefers
meeting
people.
Employees’
preferred
working
style.
I
know
of
some
very
talented
people
who
need
a
lot
of
____16____
before
they
are
willing
to
continue.
Can
you
match
your
style
with
theirs?
Employees
preferred
work
culture.
If
your
company
is
hiring
to
look
for
a
talent
to
change
the
culture,
make
sure
the
talent
is
ready
to
take
on
that
____17____as
an
agent
of
change.
Employees’
model
of
teamwork.
This
is
a
soft
skill
that
does
not
go
hand
in
hand
with
every
____18____talent
you
are
seeking
to
hire.
If
you
are
building
a
team
and
teamwork
is
critical
–
you
have
to
make
it
a
point
to
understand
whether
the
potential
employee
is
up
to
your
____19____,
through
your
questions
which
you
must
plan
ahead.
Employees’
longer
term
aspirations.
If
you
cannot
fulfill
the
mid
to
longer
term
aspirations
of
the
employees
–
you
know
that
you
can
lose
this
employee
after
you
have
hired
and
trained
him.
So
do
not
overlook
this
in
your
_____20_____
to
hire
a
talent
to
fill
an
immediate
need.

A
Directions:
For
each
blank
in
the
following
passage
there
are
four
words
or
phrases
marked
A,
B,
C
and
D.
Fill
in
each
blank
with
the
word
of
phrase
that
best
fits
the
context.
If
you’re
visiting
Florence,
Italy,
you’ve
got
to
see
the
world-famous
Uffizi
Gallery.
But
why?
Because
that’s
what
___21___
does
in
Florence?
Because
you
feel
it
___22___
to
post
a
selfie
in
front
of
the
Italian
painter
Sandro
Botticelli’s
The
Birth
of
Venus
(《维纳斯的诞生》)?
Those
are
obviously
___23___
reasons.
We
shouldn’t
go
to
places
because
they’re
world-famous;
instead
we
should
go
to
fully
___24___
what
made
them
world-famous.
But
that
requires
a
well-planned
visit,
not
just
following
the
___25___
,
taking
pictures
and
checking
it
off
your
wish
list.
For
example,
you
cannot
visit
the
crown
of
Lady
Liberty
(自由女神像的别称)
at
all
without
serious
___26___
.”
On
busy
days,
we’re
taking
25,000
people
on
a
small
island,
and
only
500
a
day
get
to
the
crown,”
said
Michael
Amato,
the
lead
park
ranger
(管理人)
for
the
Statue
of
Liberty
National
Monument,
“Right
now
we’re
sold
out
until
two
months
later”.
So
you
need
to
check
what’s
available
only
____27____.
Still,
a
lot
can
___28___
before
you
actually
go
on
the
trip.
“Keep
up
to
date,”
said
Jade
McKellar,
the
director
of
visitor
experiences
at
the
Sydney
Opera
House.
“___29___

on
social
media
and
sign
up
for
our
newsletter.”
Even
without
a
booking,
visitors
can
often
buy
tickets
for
events
that
run
363
days
a
year.
But
like
many
sites,
a
true
visit
means
spending
a
full
day,
something
a(n)
_____30_____
traveller
might
be
unwilling
to
do.
Another
reason
to
set
aside
more
time:
Visitors
can
check
out
the
less
famous
but
equally
worthwhile
—
often
beautifully
complementary
(互补的)
sites
_____31_____.
Susan
Greaney,
the
senior
historian
at
English
Heritage,
which
is
in
charge
of
Stonehenge
(巨石阵),
_____32_____
a
trip
to
the
two
history
museums
with
Stonehenge-relevant
exhibitions.
Each
of
them
is
less
than
a
30-minute
driveaway
but
likely
to
be
_____33_____
on
a
one-day
tour
from
London.
Of
course,
you
simply

the
world-famous
attraction.
If
you’re

the
time
you
get

Section
B
Directions:
Read
the
following
three
passages.
Each
passage
is
followed
by
several
questions
or
unfinished
statements.
For
each
of
them
there
are
four
choices
marked
A,
B,
C
and
D.
Choose
the
one
that
fits
best
according
to
the
information
given
in
the
passage
you
have
just
read.
(A)
It
was
New
Year’s
night.
An
aged
man
was
standing
at
a
window.
He
raised
his
mournful
eyes
towards
the
deep
blue
sky,
where
the
stars
were
floating
like
white
lilies
on
the
surface
of
a
clear
calm
lake.
Then
he
cast
them
on
the
earth,
where
few
more
hopeless
people
than
himself
now
moved
towards
their
certain
goal―the
tomb.
He
had
already
passed
sixty
of
the
stages
leading
to
it,
and
he
had
brought
from
his
journey
nothing
but
errors
and
regret.
Now
his
health
was
poor,
his
mind
vacant,
his
heart
sorrowful,
and
his
old
age
short
of
comforts.
The
days
of
his
youth
appeared
like
dreams
before
him,
and
he
recalled
the
serious
moment
when
his
father
placed
him
at
the
entrance
of
the
two
roads―one
leading
to
a
peaceful,
sunny
place,
covered
with
flowers,
fruits
and
resounding
with
soft,
sweet
songs;
the
other
leading
to
a
deep,
dark
cave,
which
was
endless,
where
poison
flowed
instead
of
water
and
where
devils
and
poisonous
snakes
hissed
and
crawled.
He
looked
towards
the
sky
and
cried
painfully,
“O
youth,
return!
O
my
father,
place
me
once
more
at
the
entrance
to
life,
and
I’ll
choose
the
better
way
!
“
But
both
his
father
and
the
days
of
his
youth
had
passed
away.
He
saw
the
lights
flowing
away
in
the
darkness.
These
were
the
days
of
his
wasted
life;
he
saw
a
star
fall
from
the
sky
and
disappeared
and
this
was
the
symbol
of
himself.
His
remorse,
which
was
like
a
sharp
arrow,
struck
deeply
into
his
heart.
Then
he
remembered
his
friends
in
his
childhood,
who
entered
life
together
with
him.
But
they
had
made
their
way
to
success
and
were
now
honoured
and
happy
on
this
New
Year’s
night.
The
clock
in
the
high
church
tower
struck
and
the
sound
made
him
remember
his
parents’
early
love
for
him.
They
had
taught
him
and
prayed
to
God
for
his
good.
But
he
chose
the
wrong
way.
With
shame
and
grief
he
dared
no
longer
look
towards
that
heaven
where
his
father
lived.
His
darkened
eyes
were
full
of
tears,
and
with
a
despairing
effort,
he
burst
out
a
cry:
“Come
back,
my
early
days!
Come
back!”
And
his
youth
did
return,
for
all
this
was
only
a
dream
which
he
had
on
New
Year’s
night.
He
was
still
young
though
his
faults
were
real;
he
had
not
yet
entered
the
deep,
dark
cave,
and
he
was
still
free
to
walk
on
the
road
which
leads
to
the
peaceful
and
sunny
land.
Those
who
still
linger
on
the
entrance
of
life,
hesitating
to
choose
the
bright
road,
remember
that
when
years
are
passed
and
your
feet
stumble
on
the
dark
mountains,
you
will
cry
bitterly,
but
in
vain:
“O
youth,
return!
Oh
give
me
back
my
early
days!”
36.

(B)
“Buffalo,
buffalo,
Buffalo,
buffalo,
buffalo,
buffalo,
Buffalo,
buffalo’’
is
a
real
sentence.
How?
Let's
break
it
down,
starting
with
simple
phrase.
Monkeys
from
Pisa
bully
deer
from
London.
Ok,
admittedly,
it's
an
impossible
scenario,
but
it
is
a
grammatically
fine
sentence.
In
English,
we
can
use
place
names
as
adjective,
so
let's
shorten
the
sentence
a
little.
Pisa
monkeys
bully
London
deer.
Now
we'll
throw
in
some
giraffes
from
Paris
to
even
the
score
with
those
mean
monkeys.
Pisa
monkeys,
whom
Paris
giraffes
intimidate,
bully
London
deer.
English
is
peculiar
in
that
you
can
omit
relative
pronouns,
e.g.,
“
the
person
whom
I
love’’
can
be
expressed
as
‘’the
the
person
I
love.’’
Let’s
do
that
to
this
sentence.
Pisa
monkeys
Paris
giraffes
intimidate
bully
London
deer
This
kind
of
pronoun
removal
can
be
a
little
more
dedicate
to
grasp
when
written
than
when
spoken.
Saying
the
above
sentence
with
pauses
after
monkeys
and
intimidate
can
help.
Now
we
need
to
replace
both
of
the
verbs,
intimidate
and
bully,
with
their
(admittedly
uncommon)
synonym,
buffalo.
Pisa
monkeys
Paris
giraffes
buffalo
buffalo
London
deer.
Again,
pauses
help
keep
the
meaning
in
mind:
Put
a
pause
after
monkeys
and
the
first
buffalo.
Now
we'll
replace
all
the
worldwide
place
names
with
the
second-largest
city
in
New
York
State,
Buffalo.(That’s
Buffalo’s
tallest
building,
One
Seneca
Tower,
below.)
Buffalo
monkeys
Buffalo
giraffes
buffalo
buffalo
Buffalo
deer.
You
can
probably
guess
what
the
next
step
is.
But
before
we
replace
all
the
animals
with
the
common
name
for
the
American
bison,
note
how
the
capital
letters
in
the
above
sentence
help
you
keep
the
place
names
separate
from
the
other
usages
of
the
word.
Ok,
here
goes:
Buffalo,
buffalo,
Buffalo,
buffalo,
buffalo,
buffalo,
Buffalo,
buffalo.
One
last
thing
to
note:
This
exceptional
sentence
is
possible
because
the
plural
of
the
animal
buffalo
is
buffalo,
not
buffalos,
otherwise
all
the
words
wouldn’t
be
identical.
40.
How
should
we
read
the
following
sentence
with
proper
pauses?
A.
Buffalo
buffalo
Buffalo
/
buffalo
buffalo
/buffalo
Buffalo
buffalo.
B.
Buffalo
Buffalo
/Buffalo
buffalo
buffalo
/
buffalo
Buffalo
buffalo.
C.
Buffalo
buffalo
Buffalo
/
buffalo
buffalo
buffalo
/
Buffalo
buffalo.
D.
Buffalo
buffalo
/Buffalo
buffalo
/
buffalo
buffalo
Buffalo
buffalo.
41.
What’s
the
key
element
to
make
this
sentence
possible?
A.
The
relative
pronouns
in
English
can
be
omitted.
B.
In
English,
place
names
can
be
used
as
adjectives.
C.
The
city
has
the
same
name
with
a
kind
of
American
bison.
D.
The
word
buffalo
has
the
same
form
of
singular
and
plura.

part
of
a
room.
American
women
who
want
to
be
alone
can
go
to
the
bedroom
and
close
the
door.
The
closed
door
is
the
sign
meaning
“Do
not
disturb”
or
“
I’
m
angry.”
An
American
is
available
if
his
door
is
open
at
home
or
at
his
office.
He
is
expected
not
to
shut
himself
off
but
to
maintain
himself
in
a
state
of
constant
readiness
to
answer
the
demands
of
others.
[3]
…?
[4]
The
contrasting
English
and
American
patterns
have
some
remarkable
implications,
particularly
if
we
assume
that
man,
like
other
animals,
has
a
built-in
need
to
shut
himself
off
from
others
from
time
to
time.
An
English
student
told
me
what
happened
when
hidden
patterns
conflicted.
He
was
quite
obviously
experiencing
strain(压力)
in
his
relationships
with
Americans.
Nothing
seemed
to
go
right
and
it
was
quite
clear
from
his
remarks
that
we
did
not
know
how
to
behave.
An
analysis
of
his
complaints
showed
that
a
major
source
of
irritation(恼怒)
was
that
no
American
seemed
to
be
able
to
pick
up
the
subtle
clues
that
there
were
times
when
he
didn’t
want
his
thoughts
interrupted.
As
he
stated
it,
“I’m
walking
around
the
apartment
and
it
seems
that
whenever
I
want
to
be
alone
my
roommate
starts
talking
to
me.
Pretty
soon
he’s
asking
“What’s
the
matter?”
and
wants
to
know
if
I’m
angry.
By
then
I
am
angry
and
say
something.”
[5]
Now
the
picture
seems
quite
clear.
When
the
American
wants
to
be
alone
he
goes
into
a
room
and
shuts
the
door---
he
depends
on
spatial
features
for
screening.
For
an
American
to
refuse
to
talk
to
someone
else
present
in
the
same
room,
to
give
them
the
“silent
treatment,”
is
the
eventual
form
of
rejection
and
a
sure
sign
of
great
displeasure.
The
English,
on
the
other
hand,
lacking
rooms
of
their
own
since
childhood,
never
developed
the
practice
of
using
space
as
a
refuge
from
others.
They
have
in
fact
internalized(内化)
a
set
of
barriers,
which
they
erect
and
which
others
are
supposed
to
recognize.
Therefore,
the
more
the
Englishman
shuts
himself
off
when
he
is
with
an
American,
the
more
likely
the
American
is
to
break
in
to
assure
himself
that
all
is
well.
Tension
lasts
until
the
two
get
to
know
each
other.
The
important
point
is
that
the
spatial
and
spatial
needs
of
each
are
not
the
same
at
all.

What
can
be

English’s
need
for
space
may

when
they
are
in
great
trouble.

The
Rise
of
the
Grown-Up
Gap
Year
It
was
2012,Tim
Potter,
who
was
in
public
relations,
had
just
finished
working
on
the
London
Olympics
alongside
his
partner.A
career
break
to
go
travelling
—
or
a
“grown-up
gap
year”—
seemed
like
a
natural
thing
to
both
of
them.
The
couple
spent
four
months
traveling
around
Asia.
Next,
they
flew
to
Mexico
via
Canada,
worked
their
way
down
through
Central
America,
and
spent
a
month
in
both
Colombia
and
Brazil.
_______47_______
Within
three
weeks
of
his
return,
he
was
in
another
job
(he’d
interviewed
for
it
in
a
phone
booth
in
Colombia).
Today,
he’s
managing
director
of
the
marketing
agency
Hunt
&
Gather.
But
is
Potter’s
experience
common
or
did
he
get
lucky?
Some
people
assume
taking
a
career
break
will
automatically
be
off-putting
to
potential
employers,
but
according
to
Emily
Bain,
managing
director
of
secretarial
recruitment
agency
Bain
and
Gray,
it
can
actually
be
quite
the
opposite.
“As
an
employer,
I
see
it
as
a
positive,”
she
says.
_______48_______
In
fact,
it’s
been
an
upward
trend
that’s
been
steadily
growing
since
the
2008
recession
(经济衰退).
“People
couldn’t
get
work
so
they
just
took
off”
she
says.
Tim
Fryer,
U.K.
manager
at
STA
Travel,
says
grown-up
gap
years
can
have
a
positive
effect
on
your
career.
“Taking
a
break
gives
travelers
time
to
refocus
on
work
as
well
as
the
space
to
reflect
on
what
exactly
it
is
they
want
to
do,”
he
explains.
_______49_______
For
many,
recovering
from
illness,
the
loss
of
a
love
one
or
something
like
divorce
can
be
the
trigger
(诱因).
And
some
simply
have
an
ambition
to
see
a
certain
place
—
or
places
—
by
a
certain
age.
Let’s
not
get
ahead
of
ourselves,
though.
Emily
Bain
admits
that
some
employers’
instinct
is
to
turn
their
noses
up
at
someone
who’s
had
a
break.
However,
she
says,
the
duty
is
on
the
traveler
to
sell
their
experience
as
something
that
will
benefit
their
future
employer.
“You
have
to
explain
the
whole
picture,”
she
says.
“Making
your
CV
(简历)
gap
accountable
actually
brings
your
profile
to
life.”
So,
don’t
hide
it
—
make
a
big
deal
of
it.
Bain
holds
that
although
gap
years
are
acceptable,
it
is
still
important
to
learn
some
kind
of
skill
regardless
of
whatever
else
you
may
be
doing
during
this
time.
_______50_______
But
it
doesn’t
have
to
be
academic.
“I
had
a
client
who
learned
a
special
kind
of
weaving
in
India,
and
that
to
me
is
really
interesting.
It
became
a
real
talking
point.”
A.
These
people
are
often
at
a
turning
point
in
their
careers
or
lives.
B.
The
desire
to
go
travelling
is
by
no
means
all
work-related,
though.
C.
The
most
obvious
skill
to
take
from
travel,
of
course,
is
a
language.
D.
Taking
a
gap
year
when
you’re
older
means
that
you
have
different
things
to
consider.
E.
Not
in
any
way
did
the
lack
of
work
affect
his
prospects.
F.
Bain
goes
on
to
say
that
taking
a
grown-up
gap
year
is
more
common
than
you’d
think.

Summary

51.
Directions:
Read
the
following
passage.
Summarize
the
main
idea
and
the
main
point(s)
of
the
passage
in
no
more
than
60
words.
Use
your
own
words
as
far
as
possible.
There
are
now
many
products
and
services
on
the
market
which
are
similar
in
content
though
produced
by
different
companies.
It
is
vital,
therefore,
for
a
company
to
distinguish
itself
from
its
competitors
by
having
a
strong
company
image
which
is
immediately
recognizable.
Logos
are
part
of
this
image.
They
are
symbols
which
often
include
a
name
or
initials
to
identify
a
company.
The
logo
establishes
a
visual
identity
for
the
company,
just
as
different
groups
of
young
people
express
their
identity
through
hairstyles
and
clothes.
All
groups
from
all
cultures
and
throughout
the
ages
have
used
colors
and
symbols
to
show
their
identity.
In
different
cultures,
different
c
olors
carry
different
meanings.
Some
colors
may
be
connected
with
coldness
in
one
culture
and
with
warmth
in
another;
some
colors
represent
life
in
one
culture
but
death
in
another.
International
companies
have,
therefore,
to
make
sure
that
their
logos
will
not
be
misunderstood
in
different
countries.
The
logos
of
large
international
companies
are
instantly
recognizable
throughout
the
world.
One
of
the
most
famous
logos
is
that
of
Coca-Cola.
The
design
of
the
words
“Coca-Cola”
has
not
changed
since
1886,
although
the
surrounding
design
has
been
changed
from
time
to
time.
Many
companies
have,
over
the
years,
renewed
their
logos
to
fit
in
with
contemporary
design
and
to
present
more
powerful
images.
Company
logos
can
be
emotive
and
can
inspire
loyalty
by
influencing
the
subconscious
(潜意识的).
Some
logos
include
an
idea
of
the
product:
the
steering
wheel
in
the
Mercedes
logo,
for
example,
and
the
aero
plane
tail
of
Alitalia.
Logos
are
used
on
packaging
and
brochures
as
well
as
on
the
product
itself.
They
may
also
appear
in
newspapers
or
on
television
as
part
of
an
advertising
campaign,
Companies
need
to
have
a
strong
corporate
identity.
The
logo
helps
to
promote
this
image
and
to
fix
it
in
the
minds
of
the
consumers.
Logos,
therefore,
need
to
be
original
and
to
have
impact
and
style.

【解析】
这是一篇新闻报道。文章记述了2017年10月1日发生于美国拉斯维加斯市骇人听闻的大规模枪击案，造成59人死亡，527人受伤。
【1题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：那个被警方认出是Stephen
Paddock的枪手。分析句子可知，identify在这里作定语修饰the
gunman，identity与gunman之间属于被动关系，要用过去分词形式。故填identified。
【2题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：这场屠杀是美国最近的一次公共场合爆发的、造成人员伤亡的枪击事件。联系前文中提到的时间late
Sunday，这里应该用最高级latest表示“最近的，最新的”。故填latest。
【3题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：再次传播了一个美国城市，这场屠杀已经成为战区的恐怖。分析句子可知，spread在这里作主句的状语，spread与主语the
massacre之间属于主动关系，要用现在分词形式。故填spreading。
【4题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：奥兰多的一名枪手，在人潮拥挤的夜总会抠动了扳机，后来他声称自己是受到伊斯兰国的鼓舞。分析句子结构可知，空白所在句缺少主语，去掉该句后的句子则成分完整，结合句意考虑非限制性定语从句，先行词是a
gunman，人属性，要用关系代词who来引导。故填who。
【5题详解】
考查情态动词。句意：Lombardo说调查方无法马上确定其动机，对于一个枪手为何扫射成群的人也无法给出确切的解释。结合后文did
not
specify来看，调查还在进行之中，因此要用could
not
identify表示“无法确定”。故填could。
【6题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：Lombardo说调查方无法马上确定其动机，对于一个枪手为何扫射成群的人也无法给出确切的解释。空白所在部分是状语，联系motive一词和answer
to的搭配来推断，这里要用why引导的宾语从句解释其后描述内容的原因。故填why。
【7题详解】
考查冠词。句意：他还声称另有527人受伤，但并没有具体说明其中多少是受枪伤、多少是在枪击后的混乱中受的伤。这里要用an
additional
527
people表示“另外527人”，类似another的用法，只能用不定冠词。故填an。
【8题详解】
考查连词。句意：他还声称另有527人受伤，但并没有具体说明其中多少是受枪伤、多少是在枪击后的混乱中受的伤。结合句意，空白处前后句之间存在转折关系，要用表转折的连词but。故填but。
【9题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：还有被流弹打伤的人，互相踩踏或者在翻越栏杆试图逃跑时受了伤。attempt
to
do
sth.意为“努力、企图做某事”，即其后要接动词不定式。故填to
escape。
【10题详解】
考查被动语态。句意：64岁的Paddock被发现死在了旅馆房间里。分析句子可知，主语Paddock与谓语动词find之间应该是被动关系，要用被动语态，且动作已经发生，要用一般过去时。故填was
found。

a
reputation”(获得声誉)可知，此处用“产生预期效果”符合语境，“预期的”其表达为desired，故选D项。

interview
process.”可知此处是指“潜在员工（未来的员工）”符合语境，“潜在的”其表达为potential，故选A项。
【14题详解】
考查动词。句意：当然，对于很多雇主来说，在面试过程中这是很容易做到的，但仅仅基于面试表现，目的是评估技能和稳定性的问题的频率是多少呢？分析句子可知，设空处是句子谓语动词，此处是固定短语be

to
do
sth.“目的是……”符合句意，故选J项。

building
a
team
and

is
critical”可知，此处是指应聘的员工是否符合你团建的期望，be
up
to
one’s

Section
B
Directions:
Read
the
following
three
passages.
Each
passage
is
followed
by
several
questions
or
unfinished
statements.
For
each
of
them
there
are
four
choices
marked
A,
B,
C
and
D.
Choose
the
one
that
fits
best
according
to
the
information
given
in
the
passage
you
have
just
read.
(A)
It
was
New
Year’s
night.
An
aged
man
was
standing
at
a
window.
He
raised
his
mournful
eyes
towards
the
deep
blue
sky,
where
the
stars
were
floating
like
white
lilies
on
the
surface
of
a
clear
calm
lake.
Then
he
cast
them
on
the
earth,
where
few
more
hopeless
people
than
himself
now
moved
towards
their
certain
goal―the
tomb.
He
had
already
passed
sixty
of
the
stages
leading
to
it,
and
he
had
brought
from
his
journey
nothing
but
errors
and
regret.
Now
his
health
was
poor,
his
mind
vacant,
his
heart
sorrowful,
and
his
old
age
short
of
comforts.
The
days
of
his
youth
appeared
like
dreams
before
him,
and
he
recalled
the
serious
moment
when
his
father
placed
him
at
the
entrance
of
the
two
roads―one
leading
to
a
peaceful,
sunny
place,
covered
with
flowers,
fruits
and
resounding
with
soft,
sweet
songs;
the
other
leading
to
a
deep,
dark
cave,
which
was
endless,
where
poison
flowed
instead
of
water
and
where
devils
and
poisonous
snakes
hissed
and
crawled.
He
looked
towards
the
sky
and
cried
painfully,
“O
youth,
return!
O
my
father,
place
me
once
more
at
the
entrance
to
life,
and
I’ll
choose
the
better
way
!
“
But
both
his
father
and
the
days
of
his
youth
had
passed
away.
He
saw
the
lights
flowing
away
in
the
darkness.
These
were
the
days
of
his
wasted
life;
he
saw
a
star
fall
from
the
sky
and
disappeared,
and
this
was
the
symbol
of
himself.
His
remorse,
which
was
like
a
sharp
arrow,
struck
deeply
into
his
heart.
Then
he
remembered
his
friends
in
his
childhood,
who
entered
life
together
with
him.
But
they
had
made
their
way
to
success
and
were
now
honoured
and
happy
on
this
New
Year’s
night.
The
clock
in
the
high
church
tower
struck
and
the
sound
made
him
remember
his
parents’
early
love
for
him.
They
had
taught
him
and
prayed
to
God
for
his
good.
But
he
chose
the
wrong
way.
With
shame
and
grief
he
dared
no
longer
look
towards
that
heaven
where
his
father
lived.
His
darkened
eyes
were
full
of
tears,
and
with
a
despairing
effort,
he
burst
out
a
cry:
“Come
back,
my
early
days!
Come
back!”
And
his
youth
did
return,
for
all
this
was
only
a
dream
which
he
had
on
New
Year’s
night.
He
was
still
young
though
his
faults
were
real;
he
had
not
yet
entered
the
deep,
dark
cave,
and
he
was
still
free
to
walk
on
the
road
which
leads
to
the
peaceful
and
sunny
land.
Those
who
still
linger
on
the
entrance
of
life,
hesitating
to
choose
the
bright
road,
remember
that
when
years
are
passed
and
your
feet
stumble
on
the
dark
mountains,
you
will
cry
bitterly,
but
in
vain:
“O
youth,
return!
Oh
give
me
back
my
early
days!”

细节理解题。根据第三段“He
looked
towards
the
sky
and
cried
painfully,
“O
youth,
return!
O
my
father,
place
me
once
more
at
the
entrance
to
life,
and
I’ll
choose
the
better
way
!
“
But
both
his
father
and
the
days
of
his
youth
had
passed
away.”（他仰望天空，痛苦地喊道:“啊，青春，回来吧!啊，父亲，请把我重新放到人生的起点上吧，我会做出更好的选择!但是他的父亲和他的青春年华都已经一去不复返了。）可知男人痛苦地哭了，因为他永远失去了走正确道路的机会。故选B。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。通过倒数第二段第一句“And
his
youth
did
return,
for
all
this
was
only
a
dream
which
he
had
on
New
Year
Night.”（他的青春真的回来了，因为这一切只不过是他在新年夜里做的一个梦。）可知这个人正在做关于他晚年生活的一个梦。故选D。
【38题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“he
had
not
yet
entered
the
deep,
dark
cave,
and
he
was
still
free
to
walk
on
the
road
which
leads
to
the
peaceful
and
sunny
land.”（他还没有进入那黑暗的深渊，他还可以自由地走在通向宁静和光明的道路上。）可推知，这个人仍然有机会选择正确的道路。故选B。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Those
who
still
linger
at
the
entrance
of
life,
hesitating
to
choose
the
bright
road,
remember
that
when
years
are
passed
and
your
feet
stumble
on
the
dark
mountains,
you
will
cry
bitterly,
but
in
vain:
“
O
youth,
return!
Oh
give
me
back
my
early
days!”（仍在人生路口徘徊，仍在为是否应该选择光明坦途而犹豫不决的人们啊，请记住:当你青春已逝，双足在黑暗的群山中举步维艰，跌跌撞撞之时，你才痛心疾首地呼唤:“啊，回来吧，青春!哦，把我早年的时光还给我吧!”）以及文章内容可知，这篇文章主要是写给一个面对艰难的人生选择犹豫不决的年轻人。故选D。
(B)
“Buffalo,
buffalo,
Buffalo,
buffalo,
buffalo,
buffalo,
Buffalo,
buffalo’’
is
a
real
sentence.
How?
Let's
break
it
down,
starting
with
simple
phrase.
Monkeys
from
Pisa
bully
deer
from
London.
Ok,
admittedly,
it's
an
impossible
scenario,
but
it
is
a
grammatically
fine
sentence.
In
English,
we
can
use
place
names
as
adjective,
so
let's
shorten
the
sentence
a
little.
Pisa
monkeys
bully
London
deer.
Now
we'll
throw
in
some
giraffes
from
Paris
to
even
the
score
with
those
mean
monkeys.
Pisa
monkeys,
whom
Paris
giraffes
intimidate,
bully
London
deer.
English
is
peculiar
in
that
you
can
omit
relative
pronouns,
e.g.,
“
the
person
whom
I
love’’
can
be
expressed
as
‘’the
the
person
I
love.’’
Let’s
do
that
to
this
sentence.
Pisa
monkeys
Paris
giraffes
intimidate
bully
London
deer.
This
kind
of
pronoun
removal
can
be
a
little
more
dedicate
to
grasp
when
written
than
when
spoken.
Saying
the
above
sentence
with
pauses
after
monkeys
and
intimidate
can
help.
Now
we
need
to
replace
both
of
the
verbs,
intimidate
and
bully,
with
their
(admittedly
uncommon)
synonym,
buffalo.
Pisa
monkeys
Paris
giraffes
buffalo
buffalo
London
deer.
Again,
pauses
help
keep
the
meaning
in
mind:
Put
a
pause
after
monkeys
and
the
first
buffalo.
Now
we'll
replace
all
the
worldwide
place
names
with
the
second-largest
city
in
New
York
State,
Buffalo.(That’s
Buffalo’s
tallest
building,
One
Seneca
Tower,
below.)
Buffalo
monkeys
Buffalo
giraffes
buffalo
buffalo
Buffalo
deer.
You
can
probably
guess
what
the
next
step
is.
But
before
we
replace
all
the
animals
with
the
common
name
for
the
American
bison,
note
how
the
capital
letters
in
the
above
sentence
help
you
keep
the
place
names
separate
from
the
other
usages
of
the
word.
Ok,
here
goes:
Buffalo,
buffalo,
Buffalo,
buffalo,
buffalo,
buffalo,
Buffalo,
buffalo.
One
last
thing
to
note:
This
exceptional
sentence
is
possible
because
the
plural
of
the
animal
buffalo
is
buffalo,
not
buffalos,
otherwise
all
the
words
wouldn’t
be
identical.
40.
How
should
we
read
the
following
sentence
with
proper
pauses?
A.
Buffalo
buffalo
Buffalo
/
buffalo
buffalo
/buffalo
Buffalo
buffalo.
B.
Buffalo
Buffalo
/Buffalo
buffalo
buffalo
/
buffalo
Buffalo
buffalo.
C.
Buffalo
buffalo
Buffalo
/
buffalo
buffalo
buffalo
/
Buffalo
buffalo.
D.
Buffalo
buffalo
/Buffalo
buffalo
/
buffalo
buffalo
Buffalo
buffalo.
41.
What’s
the
key
element
to
make
this
sentence
possible?
A.
The
relative
pronouns
in
English
can
be
omitted.
B.
In
English,
place
names
can
be
used
as
adjectives.
C.
The
city
has
the
same
name
with
a
kind
of
American
bison.
D.
The
word
buffalo
has
the
same
form
of
singular
and
plura.

【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第五段第一句Again,
pauses
help
keep
the
meaning
in
mind:
Put
a
pause
after
monkeys
and
the
first
buffalo.（再一次，停顿有助于记住意思:在猴子和第一只水牛之后停顿。）和第六段首句Saying
the
above
sentence
with
pauses
after
monkeys
and
intimidate
can
help.
Now
we
need
to
replace
both
of
the
verbs,
intimidate
and
bully,
with
their
(admittedly
uncommon)
synonym,
buffalo.（说上面这句话时，加上猴子和恐吓之后的停顿会有所帮助。现在，我们需要把恐吓和恶霸这两个动词都换成它们的同义词水牛(确实不常见)。）可知说明前面第三个词后停顿一下，接着第六个词后需要停顿一下，故答案为C。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句One

This
exceptional

possible
because
the
plural
of
the
animal
buffalo
is
buffalo,
not
buffalos,
otherwise
all
the
words
wouldn’t
be
identical.（最后要注意的是:这个特殊的句子是可能的，因为单词buffalo的复数是buffalo，而不是buffalos，否则所有的单词就不一样了。）可知使这个句子成为可能的关键因素是名词buffalo的单复数是一致的。故选D。

【点睛】文章出处类推理判断题。做这类题重要的是要抓住文章的内容或结构特征，这是推理判断的前提和基础。如报纸，前面会出现日期、地点、通讯社名称等；广告，其格式特殊，容易辨认；产品说明、器皿设备的使用说明有产品名称或操作方法，而药品的服用说明会告知服用时间、次数和药量等。如第三小题，根据第三段Let's

(C)
[1]
It
has
been
said
that
the
English
and
the
Americans
are
two
great
people
separated
by
one
language.
Among
these
differences,
how
space
is
treated
always
goes
unnoticed.
[2]
The
middle-class
American
growing
up
in
the
United
States
feels
he
has
a
right
to
have
his
own
room,
or
at
least
part
of
a
room.
American
women
who
want
to
be
alone
can
go
to
the
bedroom
and
close
the
door.
The
closed
door
is
the
sign
meaning
“Do
not
disturb”
or
“
I’
m
angry.”
An
American
is
available
if
his
door
is
open
at
home
or
at
his
office.
He
is
expected
not
to
shut
himself
off
but
to
maintain
himself
in
a
state
of
constant
readiness
to
answer
the
demands
of
others.
[3]
…?
[4]
The
contrasting
English
and
American
patterns
have
some
remarkable
implications
particularly
if
we
assume
that
man,
like
other
animals,
has
a
built-in
need
to
shut
himself
off
from
others
from
time
to
time.
An
English
student
told
me
what
happened
when
hidden
patterns
conflicted.
He
was
quite
obviously
experiencing
strain(压力)
in
his
relationships
with
Americans.
Nothing
seemed
to
go
right
and
it
was
quite
clear
from
his
remarks
that
we
did
not
know
how
to
behave.
An
analysis
of
his
complaints
showed
that
a
major
source
of
irritation(恼怒)
was
that
no
American
seemed
to
be
able
to
pick
up
the
subtle
clues
that
there
were
times
when
he
didn’t
want
his
thoughts
interrupted.
As
he
stated
it,
“I’m
walking
around
the
apartment
and
it
seems
that
whenever
I
want
to
be
alone
my
roommate
starts
talking
to
me.
Pretty
soon
he’s
asking
“What’s
the
matter?”
and
wants
to
know
if
I’m
angry.
By
then
I
am
angry
and
say
something.”
[5]
Now
the
picture
seems
quite
clear.
When
the
American
wants
to
be
alone
he
goes
into
a
room
and
shuts
the
door---
he
depends
on
spatial
features
for
screening.
For
an
American
to
refuse
to
talk
to
someone
else
present
in
the
same
room,
to
give
them
the
“silent
treatment,”
is
the
eventual
form
of
rejection
and
a
sure
sign
of
great
displeasure.
The
English,
on
the
other
hand,
lacking
rooms
of
their
own
since
childhood,
never
developed
the
practice
of
using
space
as
a
refuge
from
others.
They
have
in
fact
internalized(内化)
a
set
of
barriers,
which
they
erect
and
which
others
are
supposed
to
recognize.
Therefore,
the
more
the
Englishman
shuts
himself
off
when
he
is
with
an
American,
the
more
likely
the
American
is
to
break
in
to
assure
himself
that
all
is
well.
Tension
lasts
until
the
two
get
to
know
each
other.
The
important
point
is
that
the
spatial
and
spatial
needs
of
each
are
not
the
same
at
all.
43.
What
will
the
paragraph
3
(which
is
omitted
in
the
paper)
more
probably
talk
about?
A.
The
conditions
of
the
English
with
regard
to
their
understanding
of
space.
B.
The
response
of
the
Americans
to
some
unexpected
demands
of
others.
C.
The
reaction
of
working
class
and
upper
class
Americans
to
space.
D.
The
illustration
of
the
living
environment
of
upper-and
middle-class
Englishman.
44.
The
author
mentions
an
English
student
in
paragraph
4
in
order
to
_______.
A.
prove
humans
are
born
with
the
need
to
keep
themselves
to
themselves
sometimes
B.
demonstrate
the
contrasting
features
of
the
American
and
British
problems
in
conflict
C.
analyze
why
the
British
tend
to
be
left
alone
without
his
thoughts
being
interrupted
D.
stress
the
importance
of
reading
delicate
clues
in
communication
with
foreigners
45.
What
can
be
inferred
from
the
passage?
A.
The
Americans’
failure
to
recognize
the
English’s
need
for
space
may
cause
the
conflict.
B.
The
English
prefer
to
tell
those
around
not
to
disturb
them
when
they
are
in
low
spirits.
C.
The
Americans
are
more
willing
to
socialize
with
others
in
the
workplace
than
the
English.
D.
The
Americans
will
not
refuse
to
talk
to
others
unless
they
are
in
intense
annoyance.
46.
Which
of
the
following
statements
best
summarizes
the
main
idea
of
the
passage?
A.
The
difference
between
the
English
and
the
Americans
in
space
lies
in
their
use
of
English.
B.
The
English
and
the
Americans
have
been
adapted
quite
differently
with
regard
to
space.
C.
The
Americans
have
different
concepts
of
space
because
they
tend
to
enjoy
more
space.
D.
The
English
prefer
to
pour
their
inner
thoughts
to
others
when
they
are
in
great
trouble.

【解析】
本文是说明文。文章主要讲述英国人和美国人对待空间的方式不同,美国人认为自己有权力享有自己的空间。美国人和英国人在对待纷争时的反应也不一样，美国人不会拒绝与别人说话，除非他们非常生气。
【43题详解】
推理判断题。第一段Among
these
differences,
how
space
is
treated
always
goes
unnoticed.(在这些差异中，如何对待空间总是被忽视)可知，在如何对待空间的问题上，英国人和美国人的不同经常被忽视，根据第二段的The
middle-class
American

up
in
the
United
States
feels
he
has
a
right
to
have
his
own
room,
or
at
least
part
of
a
room.(在美国长大的中产阶级美国人认为他有权拥有自己的空间，或者至少有一部分自己的空间)可知，第二段讲述了美国人如何对待空间的问题，因此推断第三段将会介绍英国人如何对待空间问题。故选A。
【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的An
English

what
happened
when
hidden

conflicted.
He
was
quite
obviously
experiencing
strain(压力)
in
his

that
there
were
times
when
he
didn’t
want
his

很快他就会问“怎么了？”并想知道我是否生气。到那个时候，我就很生气，会说些什么)”可推断，作者提到一个英国学生，是为了展示美国人和英国人在冲突问题上的鲜明特征。故选B。

passage

answers
from
the
six
statements
according
to
what
you
have
just
read.
The
Rise
of
the
Grown-Up
Gap
Year
It
was
2012,Tim
Potter,
who
was
in
public
relations,
had
just
finished
working
on
the
London
Olympics
alongside
his
partner.A
career
break
to
go
travelling
—
or
a
“grown-up
gap
year”—
seemed
like
a
natural
thing
to
both
of
them.
The
couple
spent
four
months
traveling
around
Asia.
Next,
they
flew
to
Mexico
via
Canada,
worked
their
way
down
through
Central
America,
and
spent
a
month
in
both
Colombia
and
Brazil.
_______47_______
Within
three
weeks
of
his
return,
he
was
in
another
job
(he’d
interviewed
for
it
in
a
phone
booth
in
Colombia).
Today,
he’s
managing
director
of
the
marketing
agency
Hunt
&
Gather.
But
is
Potter’s
experience
common
or
did
he
get
lucky?
Some
people
assume
taking
a
career
break
will
automatically
be
off-putting
to
potential
employers,
but
according
to
Emily
Bain,
managing
director
of
secretarial
recruitment
agency
Bain
and
Gray,
it
can
actually
be
quite
the
opposite.
“As
an
employer,
I
see
it
as
a
positive,”
she
says.
_______48_______
In
fact,
it’s
been
an
upward
trend
that’s
been
steadily
growing
since
the
2008
recession
(经济衰退).
“People
couldn’t
get
work
so
they
just
took
off”
she
says.
Tim
Fryer,
U.K.
manager
at
STA
Travel,
says
grown-up
gap
years
can
have
a
positive
effect
on
your
career.
“Taking
a
break
gives
travelers
time
to
refocus
on
work
as
well
as
the
space
to
reflect
on
what
exactly
it
is
they
want
to
do,”
he
explains.
_______49_______
For
many,
recovering
from
illness,
the
loss
of
a
love
one
or
something
like
divorce
can
be
the
trigger
(诱因).
And
some
simply
have
an
ambition
to
see
a
certain
place
—
or
places
—
by
a
certain
age.
Let’s
not
get
ahead
of
ourselves,
though.
Emily
Bain
admits
that
some
employers’
instinct
is
to
turn
their
noses
up
at
someone
who’s
had
a
break.
However,
she
says,
the
duty
is
on
the
traveler
to
sell
their
experience
as
something
that
will
benefit
their
future
employer.
“You
have
to
explain
the
whole
picture,”
she
says.
“Making
your
CV
(简历)
gap
accountable
actually
brings
your
profile
to
life.”
So,
don’t
hide
it
—
make
a
big
deal

【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要通过Tim
Potter和他的搭档开启职业生涯的间隔年去旅行这件事谈论“间隔年或空档年”的兴起对人们及其职业生涯的益处。
【47题详解】
根据下文Within
three
weeks
of
his
return,
he
was
in
another
job
(he’d
interviewed
for
it
in
a
phone
booth
in
Colombia).回国后不到三周，他就找到了另一份工作(他是在哥伦比亚的一个电话亭里面试的)可知，Tim
Potter没有工作丝毫没有影响他的前途，反而很快的找到了工作，故选E项。
【48题详解】
根据上文“As
an
employer,
I
see
it
as
a
positive,”
she
says.句中逗号可知，Brain的话还没有说完；另根据下文In
fact,
it’s
been
an
upward
trend
that’s
been
steadily
growing
since
the
2008
recession
(经济衰退).可知，自2008年经济衰退以来，间隔年一直呈稳步上升趋势，变得更加普遍，即经历一个成年人的间隔年比你想象的更普遍，故选F项。
【49题详解】
根据下文
For
many,
recovering
from
illness,
the
loss
of
a
love
one
or
something
like
divorce
can
be
the
trigger
(诱因).可知，很多人刚从疾病中恢复，或者失去的所爱的人，或者离婚等。由此可以看出，间隔年旅行的这些人通常正处于职业生涯或生活的转折点，故选A项。
【50题详解】
根据上文Bain
holds
that
although
gap
years
are
acceptable,
it
is
still
important
to
learn
some
kind
of
skill
regardless
of
whatever
else
you
may
be
doing
during
this
time.
可知，虽然间隔年是可以接受的，但学习一些技能仍然很重要，承接上文，“从间隔年旅行中获得的最明显的技能就是语言”也就顺理成章了。而下文转折But
it
doesn’t
have
to
be
academic.(但不一定是学术性的)，并举例说明一位同事学到的印度的一种特殊的编织，与填空处答案相呼应，印证了答案的正确性，故选C选项。
【点睛】做题技巧：1.
先看选项；2.
再看空前空后；3.
注意代词和定冠词；4.
注意特殊疑问词；5.
注意一些连词。在阅读文章时候需要注意文章的首段和末端，找出文章主旨，并通过每段话首句，分析出文章结构，通过边读边做，找出上下文联系。如第3小题，根据下文
For
many,
recovering
from
illness,
the
loss
of
a
love
one
or
something
like
divorce
can
be
the
trigger
(诱因).可知，很多人刚从疾病中恢复，或者失去的所爱的人，或者离婚等。由此可以看出，间隔年旅行的这些人通常正处于职业生涯或生活的转折点，故选A项。

Summary
Writing
51.
Directions:
Read
the
following
passage.
Summarize
the
main
idea
and
the
main
point(s)
of
the
passage
in
no
more
than
60
words.
Use
your
own
words
as
far
as
possible.
There
are
now
many
products
and
services
on
the
market
which
are
similar
in
content
though
produced
by
different
companies.
It
is
vital,
therefore,
for
a
company
to
distinguish
itself
from
its
competitors
by
having
a
strong
company
image
which
is
immediately
recognizable.
Logos
are
part
of
this
image.
They
are
symbols
which
often
include
a
name
or
initials
to
identify
a
company.
The
logo
establishes
a
visual
identity
for
the
company,
just
as
different
groups
of
young
people
express
their
identity
through
hairstyles
and
clothes.
All
groups
from
all
cultures
and
throughout
the
ages
have
used
colors
and
symbols
to
show
their
identity.
In
different
cultures,
different
c
olors
carry
different
meanings.
Some
colors
may
be
connected
with
coldness
in
one
culture
and
with
warmth
in
another;
some
colors
represent
life
in
one
culture
but
death
in
another.
International
companies
have,
therefore,
to
make
sure
that
their
logos
will
not
be
misunderstood
in
different
countries.
The
logos
of
large
international
companies
are
instantly
recognizable
throughout
the
world.
One
of
the
most
famous
logos
is
that
of
Coca-Cola.
The
design
of
the
words
“Coca-Cola”
has
not
changed
since
1886,
although
the
surrounding
design
has
been
changed
from
time
to
time.
Many
companies
have,
over
the
years,
renewed
their
logos
to
fit
in
with
contemporary
design
and
to
present
more
powerful
images.
Company
logos
can
be
emotive
and
can
inspire
loyalty
by
influencing
the
subconscious
(潜意识的).
Some
logos
include
an
idea
of
the
product:
the
steering
wheel
in
the
Mercedes
logo,
for
example,
and
the
aero
plane
tail
of
Alitalia.
Logos
are
used
on
packaging
and
brochures
as
well
as
on
the
product
itself.
They
may
also
appear
in
newspapers
or
on
television
as
part
of
an
advertising
campaign,
Companies
need
to
have
a
strong
corporate
identity.
The
logo
helps
to
promote
this
image
and
to
fix
it
in
the
minds
of
the
consumers.
Logos,
therefore,
need
to
be
original
and
to
have
impact
and
style.
【答案】It’s
important
for
a
company
to
distinguish
itself
from
others
to
be
easily
recognized
by
people.
Logos
symbolize
their
identities
and
colors
can
carry
different
meanings
for
different
cultures,
so
the
logos
mustn’t
be
misunderstood.
The
logos
of
large
companies
are
not
changed
over
time.
What’s
more,
they
are
used
on
packages
and
brochures
besides
on
the
products.
【解析】
【分析】
阅读文章，概括主旨，不多于60词。
【详解】本题要求是概要写作，为明确文章主旨，可先逐段阅读并总结段落大意，然后串联分析文章结构，从而总结整体主题。
第一段给出文章的背景，指出一家公司想要与其他同类型公司有所不同、有辨识度，打造鲜明的公司形象是非常重要的。
第二段引出文章的主要话题：标志，即logo，指出其含义和作用。
第三段主要讲述了不同文化背景下的颜色有着不同的含义，因此国际性的公司要确保标志不会被误解。
第四段以一些著名公司标志为例，介绍了它们具备的特点。
第五段做出总结并呼应文章开头，再次强调标志可以塑造公司形象的重要作用，因此必须是原创的、特别的、让人印象深刻的。
这样就可以对文章的脉络和主旨有明确的把握，本文从公司形象切入，引出标志这一话题，从国际大公司的标志有文化适应性、与时俱进性以及宣传性质等方面阐述了标志的重要性。根据文章内容再进行概括、串联、组织语言即可写出概要内容。

众所周知，早睡早期有益于健康。(good
n.)(汉译英)
【答案】It
is
known
to
all
that
early
sleep
and
early
getup
does
good
to
our
health.
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语和形式主语。分析句子可知，该句为一般事实，用一般现在时。
It
is
known
to
all..表示“众所周知”.，其中It
为形式主语，真正的主语是后面的that从句，
early
sleep
and
early
getup作主语，视为一个整体，谓语动词用单数，do
good
to表示“对……有好处”，故翻译为：It
is
known
to
all
that
early
sleep
and
early
getup
does
good
to
our
health.
53.
倘若头痛只是发生在晚上，缺少新鲜空气是主要原因。(occur)
(汉译英)
【答案】If
headache
only
occurs
at
night,
lack
of
fresh
air
is
the
main
reason.
【解析】
【详解】考查条件状语从句。这里表示假设，用if引导条件状语从句；描述一个客观的事实，主从句都用一般现在时；“头疼”是headache，“发生”是occur，“缺少”是lack
of，“新鲜的”是fresh，“主要的”是main，“原因”是reason，所以翻译成If
headache
only
occurs
at
night,
lack
of
fresh
air
is
the
main
reason.
54.
现如今，岛上的居民全天候的从收音机里了解世界大事。(available)
(汉译英)
【答案】Nowadays,
the
events
in
the
world
can
be
available
to
the
residents
on
the
island
the
whole
day.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和固定搭配。由Nowadays可知，时态用一般现在时，所以情态动词用can，而不是could，固定搭配be
available
to（可供使用、可得到），主语the
events
in
the
world，谓语can
be
available
to，宾语
the
residents
on
the
island；再根据其他汉语提示，故翻译为：Nowadays,
the
events
in
the
world
can
be
available
to
the
residents
on
the
island
the
whole
day。
55.
面试中，这位求职者流露出自信和善良，给我留下了很深的印象。(impress)
(汉译英)
【答案】The
confidence
and
kindness
the
employee
showed
in
the
interview
impressed
me
a
lot.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和定语从句。分析句子可知，动作发生在过去，要用一般过去时。主语是“自信和善良”the
confidence
and
kindness，谓语是“留下印象”impress，宾语是“我”me；修饰“自信和善良”的部分可以写作定语从句，“流露”可以用show“展示、展现”表示，再根据其他汉语提示。故翻译为：The
confidence
and
kindness
the
employee
showed
in
the
interview
impressed
me
a
lot.

精明的商人同别人讨价还价的时候，往往不动声色，所以他们对价格是否满意令人无从得知。(satisfy)
(汉译英)
【答案】Wise
businessman
tend
to
be
calm
when
bargaining
with
others,
so
we
have
no
way
to
know
whether
they
are
satisfied
with
the
prices.
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句和宾语从句。分析句子可知，要用so表示“所以”，连接有因果关系的前后句。前句中“同别人讨价还价的时候”可以写成由when引导的时间状语从句（可以省略主语和be动词），“讨价还价”用bargain表示，“不动声色”用calm表示即可；后句中有“是否”，显然要用whether引导的宾语从句，主语是they，谓语“无从得知”可翻译为have
no
way
to
know，宾语从句中“对……满意”要用be
satisfied
with表示。再根据其他汉语提示。故翻译为：Wise
businessman
tend
to
be
calm
when
bargaining
with
others,
so
we
have
no
way
to
know
whether
they
are

the

reasons.

What’s

taking
such
a

will

take
your

especially
when
you

So
you
may
get
confused
if

Last

from
the
way
you
speak

your
body
language,
we
can
conclude
that
you
are
not
confident
enough.
If
so,
how
can

So
