Ⅲ.阅读理解
The medieval period (中世纪时期) lasted about a thousand years，from the fifth to the fifteenth century.During this time，the great lords (封建领主) of Europe lived in castles.A castle was the center of a local land system managed by a lord.A castle was also a stronghold (堡垒) against enemies.
The first castles were wooden structures set on high ground and were surrounded by walls.Later castles had stone towers.Each had a great hall where people ate their meals and slept.Inside，on an upper floor，were the family’s bedrooms.The lord and the lady slept in one room，and their children shared another.The family’s servants slept on bed rolls or on the floor.Others who lived in the castle slept in the towers，and men at arms slept near their posts.
Water came from a well near or inside the castle.People bathed in wooden tubs.In warm weather the tub was outside，but in cold weather it was inside，near a fireplace.For toilets，people used a garderobe，which was set into a wall.
At sunrise，the lord’s family rose and dressed.After having a breakfast of bread and drink，they went to his or her work.The lord would see to the castle business while the lady took charge of the household servants.The lord’s children went to a schoolroom to learn lessons.Afterward，they played.Pages (男侍) were taught lessons and hunting.A page was often the son of another noble (贵族的) family who started to live at the castle from age seven.At age fourteen，he became a squire (护卫) and was taught by a knight.And by age twenty one，perhaps he could become a knight himself.
Everyone gathered in the hall for the main meal of the day.The lord and his family sat at a table on a platform.Others sat on benches at smaller tables.

Section Ⅳ Grammar & Writing
过去分词作宾语补足语
英语中，过去分词可以用作宾语补足语。能用作宾语补足语的过去分词一般都是及物动词，表示被动意义或完成意义，有时候两者兼而有之。作宾语补足语的过去分词与宾语有逻辑上的动宾关系，即宾语是过去分词动作的对象。主要有下面几种情况：
1.在表示感官动词或心理状态的动词，如see，hear，feel，watch，notice，think，find等后可用过去分词作宾语补足语。
①When we got to school，we saw the door locked.
当我们到学校时，我们看见门锁着。
②We can hear the windows beaten by the rain drops.
我们可以听到雨点敲打窗户的声音。
2．使役动词，如have，make，keep，get，leave等后可用过去分词作宾语补足语。
①They kept the door locked for a long time.
他们把门锁了好长一段时间。
②Don’t leave the windows broken like this all the time.
不要让窗户一直像这样破着。
③What made him so frightened？
什么让他如此害怕？
[提醒] “have＋宾语＋过去分词”可以表示三种含义：
(1)表示“让某人做某事”
I have had my bike repaired.
我让人修了我的自行车。
(2)表示“遭遇到某种不幸；受到打击”
My elder sister had her wallet stolen on a bus last month.
上个月，我姐姐的钱包在公共汽车上被偷了。
(3)做完某事(主语可能参与其中)
The villagers had many trees planted just then.
就在那时，村民们种了许多树。
3.表示“愿望”“希望”“命令”等意义的动词，如want，wish，like，expect，order等后可用过去分词作宾语补足语。
①The teacher wouldn’t like the problem discussed at the moment.
老师不想此刻讨论这个问题。
②I want the suit made to his own measure.
我想要这套衣服照他自己的尺寸做。
4．在“with＋复合结构”中可用过去分词作宾语补足语。
①The thief was brought in with his hands tied behind his back.
小偷被带进来了，双手被反绑在后面。
② With many brightly colored flowers planted around the building，his house looks like a beautiful garden.
周围种了许多色彩鲜艳的花，他的房子看上去就像一座漂亮的花园。
[提醒] 现在分词，过去分词和动词不定式作宾语补足语的区别：
(1)宾语与宾语补足语之间的关系若是主动或进行时则使用现在分词。
I heard them singing in the room when I passed.
(2)宾语与宾语补足语之间的关系若是被动或完成时则使用过去分词。
The teacher explained the problem several times but still couldn’t make himself understood.老师几次解释这个问题，就是不能让他们明白自己表达的意思。
(3)不定式作宾语补足语则侧重将来的动作或强调动作的全过程。
With much work to do，he had to get up early.
由于有很多工作要做，他不得不早起。
(2010·辽宁卷)Alexander tried to get his work ________in the medical circles.
A．to recognize B．recognizing

C．to lay D．being laid

解析： 考查非谓语动词作宾语补足语。make sb.do sth.使某人干某事；make sb.done使某人被……。I can make you understand what I say中，understand和you之间构成主动关系。在第二个分句中understand和yourself之间构成被动关系，故用过去分词。
答案： B
9．With a lot of difficulties________，they went to the seashore and had a good rest.
A．settled B．settling
C．to settle D．being settled
解析： 考查with复合结构中复合宾语的形式。宾补settled和宾语difficulties构成被动关系，故选A项。
答案： A
10．You should understand the traffic rule by now.You’ve had it ________ often enough.
A．explaining B．to explain
C．explain D．explained
解析： 本题考查过去分词作宾补。句意为：你现在应该理解交通规则了。因为已经给你解释得够多了。it与explain之间是被动关系。故选过去分词explained。
答案： D
11．(2010·郑州高二检测)Now when people refer to England you find Wales ________ as well.
A．was included B．having been included
C．being including D．included
解析： 考查“find＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构。Wales与include之间为被动关系，故用过去分词形式作宾语补足语。
答案： D
12．We are pleased to see the problem ________so quickly.
A．settled B．having been settled
C．be settled D．settling
解析： 本题考查过去分词作宾补。句意为：我们很高兴看到这个问题这么快就被解决了。由于the problem与settle之间是被动关系，排除D。B项一般用作状语，表示被动和完成。而C项是谓语动词的被动形式。
答案： A
13．I have had my bike________，and I’m going to have somebody ________ my radio tomorrow.
A．repair；to repair
B．repairing；to be repaired
C．repaired；repair
D．to repair；repairing
解析： 本题考查过去分词作宾补。在第一空中，my bike与repair之间是被动关系，故用过去分词。在第二空中，somebody与repair之间是主动关系，又因为在have＋宾语＋宾补结构中如果是不定式作宾补则不能带to。
答案： C
14．(2011·福州高二检测)In the reading room，we found her ________at the desk，with her attention ________ on a book.
A．sitting；fixing B．to sit；fixed
C．seated；fixed D．seating；fixing
解析： 考查过去分词作宾语补足语。seat使……就座，与her之间为被动关系，故用过去分词作宾语补足语；fix one’s attention on注意力集中在，attention与fix之间为被动关系，故也用过去分词作宾语补足语。
答案： C
15．The woman kept her eyes________on her baby for quite some time.
A．to fix B．fixed
C．fixing D．being fixed
解析： 本题考查过去分词作宾补。题干中缺少eyes的宾补。her eyes与fix之间是被动关系，排除A项和C项。D项表示进行，这显然与for quite some time不符。
答案： B

1．(2011·濮阳高二检测)—I am terribly sorry.I shouldn’t have lost my temper.
—You________at me but that’s OK.
A．do shout B．have shouted
C．is shouting D．did shout
解析： 本题考查谓语动词的强调形式。根据语境第二个人想表达“你刚才确实冲我喊了，不过没关系”，did shout是shouted的一种强调形式。
答案： D
2．—Is there any possibility________you could pick me up at the airport
—No problem.
A．when B．that
C．whether D．what
解析： 本题考查名词性从句。问句句意：你可能到机场来接我吗？从句中不缺任何成分，故用that。that引导的从句作possibility的同位语，that无意义起连接作用。
答案： B
3．________of his parents，he made great progress.
A．To their much delight B．To the much delight
C．To much their delight D．Much to the delight
解析： 本题考查delight的短语搭配。句意为：令他父母非常高兴的是他取得了很大进步。much to the delight of his parents令他父母非常高兴的是。注意much的位置，much在这儿表示程度。

4．Ladies and gentlemen，please remain________until the plane has come to a complete stop.
A．seated B．seating
C．to seat D．seat
解析： 句意为：女士们先生们，请继续坐在座位上直到飞机完全停下。remain seated中seated作remain的表语。
答案： A
5．You can’t imagine that a well behaved gentleman ________be so rude to a lady.
A．might B．need
C．should D．would
解析： 本题考查情态动词。句意为：你无法想像一位温文尔雅的绅士居然如此粗鲁地对待一位女士。should在这里表示一种惊讶的语气，意为居然，竟然。might可能；need需要；would会，都不符合语境。
答案： C
6．We all know that，________，the situation will get worse.
A．not if dealt carefully with B．if not carefully dealt with
C．not if dealt carefully with D．not if carefully dealt with
解析： 此题命题项应为状语从句的省略现象。此状语从句完整结构应为“if the situation is not carefully dealt with”。选项A、C、D结构错误，均可被排除。
答案： B
7．Students in this village school only have two dictionaries to________when they study English.
A．ask for B．point to
C．look up D．refer to
解析： 考查短语的意义和用法。refer to有“参考，参阅”的意思，look up也有“查阅”的意思，但是它的宾语应为查阅的内容；ask for意为“要找(某人)”；point to意为“指出”，用在句中都不正确。
答案： D
8．The village school________only three teachers，all of whom haven’t received college education.
A．consists of B．is formed of
C．is consisted of D．is made of
解析： 考查consist of的用法。consist of意为“由……组成”，不用于被动语态，也不用于进行时态。句意为：这所乡村学校只有三名教师，他们都未受过高等教育。form意思是“形成，构建，建立”，与句意不符。
答案： A
9．She had just cleaned and________the new room when we arrived.
A．collected B．organized
C．constructed D．arranged
解析： 考查动词辨析。arrange意为“整理”。句意为：我们到的时候，她刚打扫并整理好新房间。collect收集；organize组织；construct建造，创立。
答案： D
10．I’d be grateful if you would send me a reply at your earliest________.
A．preference B．pleasure
C．convenience D．connection
解析： 考查名词辨析。at one’s convenience意为“在某人方便的时候”。句意为：如果你能尽早在方便的时候回复我，我将十分感谢。preference偏爱；pleasure快乐，高兴；connection连接。
答案： C
11．There will be a war if the peace talks between the two countries________.
A．break away B．break down
C．break into D．break out
解析： 考查break短语的意义辨析。break down除了意为“(机器)损坏，破坏”，还有“(谈判等)失败”的意思，句中是说如果两国间的和平谈判不成功的话就将会发生战争。而break away意为“脱离”；break into意为“破门而入”；break out意为“爆发；突然开始”，都不符合语境意义。
答案： B
12．Always read the________on the bottle carefully and take the right amount of medicine.
A．explanations B．instructions
C．descriptions D．introductions
解析： 本题考查名词辨析。由语境可知，是指“用法说明书”，用instructions。其他不合语境。explanation解释；description描写；introduction介绍，绪言。
答案： B
13．No matter how frequently________，the works of Beethoven still attract people all over the world.
A．performed B．performing
C．to be performed D．being performed
解析： 本题考查“连词＋分词”或状语从句的省略。因为the works of Beethoven (贝多芬的作品)与perform (演奏) 是被动关系，用过去分词；虽然选项C和D都有被动关系，但选项C表示将来，选项D表示与句子谓语同时发生，都不合语境。No matter how frequently performed...＝No matter how frequently they (the works of Beethoven) are performed...。
答案： A
14．When he went to wash his hands，he found the wedding ring around his finger________，making him feel very sad.
A．gone B．rejected
C．missed D．left
解析： 考查非谓语动词作宾语补足语。the wedding ring与动词find为逻辑上的动宾关系，所以用过去分词gone作宾语补足语，表示“不见了，丢失”，而miss要用现在分词作宾语补足语，表示状态；leave表示“落下，离开”，没有丢失的意思，reject意为“拒绝”也不正确。
答案： A
15．To our________，China overcame all the difficulties caused by the disasters in 2008 and successfully hosted the 29th Olympic Games.
A．wonder B．doubt
C．credit D．point
解析： 考查固定短语。to one’s credit意为“值得赞扬”，是固定搭配。
答案： C
Ⅱ.阅读理解
I was traveling in China a couple of years ago.We were touring some very rural areas—the particular location was the Ancient City about 40 miles outside Wenzhou.I was the only brown skinned person in sight.People were quite curious about me，and would stare，and sometimes photograph me.I was getting a little angry，but I thought why not send my fellow travellers love in my thoughts.As we walked through this village we came upon a family making rice wine.They appeared to have very little but bad happy smiles.
As we got closer，I saw a small figure run into their little home and run back out.Their little child，about 3 years old，approached me.She was very lovely and wore quite old clothes and had dirt on her face.As I bent down，she reached out and gave me a little doll.Her grandmother explained that she only had a few toys but that she wanted to give this doll to me because as she saw me approaching she believed that I was an angel coming to bring her luck.
I was in tears that this little baby girl felt that I was a symbol of goodness because I appeared different than others she had seen.She hugged me without fear.I felt that I couldn’t possibly walk away with her doll，but I also understood the law of giving，and that what you give with all your heart，returns to you blessed (祝福)．
That little girl and that sweet little hug will stay in my heart forever.Any time I feel uncertain about giving，especially when my resources seem short I remember her ability to give without a second thought.Who knows，she may grow up to be a Head of State，but to me she is an angel that walks this Earth as a constant reminder of love.

答案： B
Men who drink less than half a glass of wine a day may live up to five years longer than teetotallers，and could have less chance of a heart attack，a study has found.
The study of the effect of spirits on men’s health by a team at Wageningen University in the Netherlands found that long term light consumption (消耗)—less than 20 grams daily—is more beneficial than never drinking alcohol (酒)．The study is the first to examine the effects of different drinks，saying that wine is much healthier than beer or spirits.
The research examined the lifestyle and alcohol consumption of 1,373 men born between 1900 and 1920 whose health had been examined regularly between 1960 and 2000.The men were studied to see how much alcohol they consumed，what type，and over what period of time，to find out if their risk of dying from a heart attack，stroke or other causes was affected.
The researchers concluded that drinking up to 20 grams a day could extend men’s lifespan (寿命) by up to two years compared with those who avoided wine.
They also found that men who drank only wine，and less than half a glass a day，lived for about two and half years longer than those who drank beer or spirits，and almost five years more than those who never drank alcohol.
But alcohol campaigners said any idea that drinking could be good for health was dangerous.Don Shenker said：“Some evidence shows that very moderate (适度的) wine intake can be beneficial，but this must be weighed up against the serious harms caused by drinking more than moderate amounts.For example，in men，drinking more than half a glass a day，there’s a drop in life expectancy.”
[语篇解读] 研究表明：适量饮酒有益于身体健康。
6．The underlined word “teetotallers” (in Paragraph 1) probably refers to________.

C．a，c，d D．b，c，d
解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段可知，研究对象内容为1,373人的生活方式、饮酒量、所饮酒的品种以及何时饮酒，因此A项正确。
答案： A
9．What Don Shenker said means that________.
A．drinking can shorten one’s lifespan instead of extending it
B．no evidence shows that drinking is good
C．how much people should drink a day should be worked out
D．harms of drinking over moderate amounts should be assessed

PUZZLES IN GEOGRAPHY
People may wonder why different words are used to describe these four countries：England，Wales，Scotland and Northern Ireland.You can clarify this question if you study British history.
First there was England.Wales was linked to it in the thirteenth century.Now when people refer to England you find Wales included as well.Next England and Wales were joined to Scotland in the seventeenth century and the name was changed to “Great Britain”．Happily this was accomplished without conflict when King James of Scotland became King of England and Wales as well.Finally the English government tried in the early twentieth century to form the United Kingdom by getting Ireland connected in the same peaceful way.
However，the southern part of Ireland was unwilling and broke away to form its own government.So only Northern Ireland joined with England，Wales and Scotland to become the United Kingdom and this was shown to the world in a new flag called the Union Jack.
To their credit the four countries do work together in some areas (eg，the currency and international relations)，but they still have very different institutions.For example，Northern Ireland，England and Scotland have different educational and legal systems as well as different football teams for competitions like the World Cup!
England is the largest of the four countries，and for convenience it is divided roughly into three zones. The zone nearest France is called the South of England，the middle zone is called the Midlands and the one nearest to Scotland is known as the North.You find most of the population settled in the south，but most of the industrial cities in the Midlands and the North of England.Although，nationwide，
these cities are not as large as those in China，they have world famous football teams and some of them even have two！It is a pity that the industrial cities built in the nineteenth century do not attract visitors.For historical architecture you have to go to older but smaller towns built by the Romans.There you will find out more about British history and culture.
The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums，art collections，theatres，parks and buildings.It is the centre of national government and its administration.It has the oldest port built by the Romans in the first century AD，the oldest building begun by the Anglo Saxons in the 1060s and the oldest castle constructed by later Norman rulers in 1066.There has been four sets of invaders of England.
The first invaders，the Romans，left their towns and roads.The second，the Anglo Saxons，left their language and their government.The third，the Vikings，influenced the vocabulary and place names of the North of England，and the fourth，the Normans，left castles and introduced new words for food.
If you look around the British countryside you will find evidence of all these invaders.You must keep your eyes open if you are going to make your trip to the United Kingdom enjoyable and worth while!
地理学的困惑
对于用不同词汇来描述英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰和北爱尔兰这四个国家，人们感到很奇怪。如果你研究英国历史，你就可以弄清楚这个问题。
首先是英格兰。威尔士在公元13世纪时与英格兰是一体的。现在当人们说到英格兰时，你会发现威尔士也包括在其中。接着英格兰和威尔士在17世纪同苏格兰合并，更名为“大不列颠”。
苏格兰的詹姆斯国王也成为英格兰和威尔士的国王，幸运的是这并未经过战争。最后在20世纪初，英国政府打算把爱尔兰也和平联合起来组建联合王国。但是爱尔兰的南部很不情愿，分离出去并建立了自己的政府。因此，只有北爱尔兰与英格兰、威尔士和苏格兰统一成为联合王国，这在新国旗上展现给世人，叫做“英国国旗”。
值得赞扬的是，这四个国家在某些领域确实能够合作(比如，在货币和国际关系上)，但是它们的制度很不相同。例如，北爱尔兰、英格兰和苏格兰有不同的教育及司法体系，还有不同的足球队去参加像世界杯这样的比赛！
英格兰是四个国家中最大的，为方便起见，它大体上分成三个区。最靠近法国的是英格兰南部，中部地区被称为英格兰中部，最靠近苏格兰的称为英格兰北部。你可以看到大多数人口定居在南部，但多数的大型工业城市在英格兰的中部和北部地区。尽管英格兰全国的许多城市不如中国的城市大，但它们都有著名的足球队，有些甚至有两支！可惜的是，这些建于19世纪的工业城市不吸引游客。为游览古代建筑你就得去那些最初由罗马人建造的更古老但是更小的城镇。在那儿你会了解更多的关于英国历史和文化的东西。
最伟大的历史财富是伦敦，它拥有博物馆、艺术珍藏、戏院、公园以及建筑。它是全国的政治中心。它还有罗马人于公元1世纪建的最古老的港口，盎格鲁—撒克逊人于11世纪60年代始建起的最古老的建筑以及后来的诺曼统治者于1066年建造的最古老的城堡。曾经有四批侵略者到过英国。第一批入侵者是罗马人，他们留下了他们的城镇和道路。接着是盎格鲁—撒克逊人，他们留下了他们的语言和政体。第三批是斯堪的纳维亚人，他们对词汇以及北部的地名造成了一定的影响。第四批是诺曼人，他们留下了城堡和表示食物名称的词语。
如果你到英国的乡村看看，你会发现所有这些入侵者留下的证据。如果你想让你的英国之旅很有价值，你必须留心观察！
Using Language
SIGHTSEEING IN LONDON
Worried about the time available，Zhang Pingyu had made a list of the sites she wanted to see in London.Her first delight was going to the Tower.It was built long ago by the Norman invaders of AD 1066.Fancy！This solid stone，square tower had remained standing for one thousand years.Although the buildings had expanded around it，it remained part of a royal palace and prison combined.
To her great surprise，Zhang Pingyu found the Queen’s jewels guarded by special royal soldiers who，on special occasions，still wore the four hundred year old uniform of the time of Queen Elizabeth Ⅰ.
There followed St Paul’s Cathedral built after the terrible fire of London in 1666.It looked splendid when first built！Westminster Abbey，too，was very interesting.It contained statues in memory of dead poets and writers，such as Shakespeare.Then just as she came out of the abbey，Pingyu heard the famous sound of the clock，Big Ben，ringing out the hour.She finished the day by looking at the outside of Buckingham Palace，the Queen’s house in London.Oh，she had so much to tell her friends!
The second day the girl visited Greenwich and saw its old ships and famous clock that sets the world time.What interested her most was the longitude line.It is an imaginary line dividing the eastern and western halves of the world and is very useful for navigation.It passes through Greenwich，so Pingyu had a photo taken standing on either side of the line.
The last day she visited Karl Marx’s statue in Highgate Cemetery.It seemed strange that the man who had developed communism should have lived and died in London.Not only that，but he had worked in the famous reading room of the Library of the British Museum.Sadly the library had moved from its original place into another building and the old reading room was gone.But she was thrilled by so many wonderful treasures from different cultures displayed in the museum.When she saw many visitors enjoying looking at the beautiful old Chinese pots and other objects on show，she felt very proud of her country.
The next day Pingyu was leaving London for Windsor Castle.“Perhaps I will see the Queen？” she wondered as she fell asleep.
伦敦观光记
由于担心时间不够，张萍玉早就把她想要在伦敦参观的地点列了一张清单。她最先想参观的地方是伦敦塔。它是很久以前由入侵的诺曼人在公元1066年修建的。真是太棒了！这个坚实的用石头砌的方形塔已经屹立在那儿一千年了。尽管在塔的四周扩建了一些建筑，但它仍然是皇宫和监狱联合体的一个组成部分。让张萍玉十分惊讶的是，她发现女王的珠宝由皇家特别卫士守护着，而这些卫士在一些特殊的日子仍然穿着400年前女王伊丽莎白一世时代的制服。
接着参观的是圣·保罗大教堂，它是1666年可怕的伦敦大火后建造的。刚建成时它看起来真是金碧辉煌！威斯敏斯特大教堂也是很有意思的地方。它里面珍藏着一些已故诗人和作家的雕像，例如莎士比亚的雕像。正当萍玉从大教堂往外走的时候，她听到了著名的大本钟在整点敲响的钟声。她参观了女王伦敦住所白金汉宫的外景，以此结束了一天的观光。啊，她要给朋友们讲的实在太多了！
第二天萍玉参观了格林尼治天文台，看到了古老的轮船和著名的为世界定时的钟。她最感兴趣的是那条经线。这是一条假想的线，它把世界分成东西两个半球，从而有利于航海。这条线穿过格林尼治，萍玉就跨着这条线拍了一张照片。
最后一天，她参观了伦敦海格特公墓里卡尔·马克思的雕像。这似乎是一件怪事：这位发展了共产主义的人竟然在伦敦生活过，并且在伦敦去世。不仅如此，他还在著名的大英博物馆的图书馆里工作过。遗憾的是，这个图书馆已经从原来的地方搬到另一座大楼里去了，旧的阅览室已不复存在。但最为震惊的却是博物馆里那些来自不同文化的美妙展品。当萍玉看到那么多参观者用欣赏的目光注视着古老漂亮的中国陶瓷和其他展品时，她为祖国感到无比骄傲。
第二天，萍玉就要离开伦敦去温莎城堡了。她边打盹边想：“也许我能见到女王呢？”
