Ⅰ.单项填空
1.It was foolish of him to his notes during that important test,and as a result,he got punished.
A.stick to B.refer to C.keep to D.point to

2.It suddenly______to the detective that the millionaire was probably murdered by his own daughter.
A.happened B.occurred C.thought D.took place
答案:B 本题考查动词辨析。分析语境可以看出,此处应该使用occur to sb.短语结构,表示“come to one’s mind想到”的意思。此句中的it为形式主语,that从句为实际主语。
3.Without proper lessons,you could______a lot of bad habits when playing the piano.
A.give up B.catch up C.pick up D.keep up
答案:C 本题考查短语动词的辨析。从句子所提供的语境分析,此处用pick up,表示“不经过正规学习而偶尔学到”的意思。
4.Tom had been______head with a ball.
A.hit on his B.hitted on the C.hit on the D.hitting on the
答案:C 本题主要考查固定搭配。句意:汤姆的头被一个球打了一下。“打某人的头”这个短语,要在身体局部前用定冠词the,即用句型“hit sb. on the head”。
5.The strong winds sweep over the sea,and the rolling waves constantly______the shore.

答案:B 动词beat表示连续不断地“击打”。而hit表示“击中”。
6.The camera was______by his son.

8.When the factory loses,it will mean 500 people______their jobs.
A.losing B.to lose C.lost D.having lost
答案:A 本题主要考查谓语动词和非谓语动词的用法,根据mean的用法分析,排除C项。在根据句子意思判断,此处应该表示“意味”的意思,排除B项。从谓语的时态考虑可排除D项。500 people为losing的逻辑主语。
9.The gas must have run out, the fire went out itself.
A.because B.as C.for D.since
答案:C 此题考查连词的使用,主句为对过去事情的猜测,从句应用连词for,表示补充说明的原因和理由。
10.—Shall we go there next week
—I’d rather______.
A.didn’t B.won’t C.wouldn’t D.don’t
答案:A 本题考查would rather的句型结构。would rather是一个常用的表示选择意义的固定词组,也可以用had rather来代替,但不可用should rather或will rather,在试题中经常出现。would rather+动词过去式所表示的是现在或将来的情况。要表示过去的情况要用would rather have+过去分词。如:I would rather have stayed at home yesterday.would rather+that从句有如下三种形式:
①主语+would rather that+主语+动词过去式,表示对将来的虚拟。如:I would rather that my son worked in a small town next year.
②主语+would rather that+主语+过去式,表示与现在事实相反的虚拟。如:I would rather that my younger brother didn’t leave now.
③主语+would rather that+主语+had+过去分词,表示与过去事实相反的虚拟语气。如:I would rather that you had come yesterday.
此外,would rather do sth. 的否定形式是would rather not do sth.,把not放到rather后面,不能放在would rather之间,如:I would rather not take the job.我宁愿不接受这份工作。
11.How do you find______to carry out this program
A.this B.that C.it D.what
答案:C 本题为形式宾语句型,to carry out this program为真正的宾语,it是形式宾语,代替后面的动词不定式。形式宾语代替动词不定式,动名词或宾语从句,所以只能选C。
12.This was the first time the students______to Hyde Park.
A.have gone B.have been gone
C.had gone D.are being gone
答案:C 在This is the first (second,third,etc.) time that 中that 从句中谓语动词时态要用现在完成时态,因为前面为过去时态was 所以从句中的时态要相应的降一格,使用过去完成时态。
13.By the end of last year they______1 000 machines.
A.turned out B.had turned out
C.would turn out D.had been turned out
答案:B 因为时间状语为by the end of last year,所以句子的时态要选择过去完成时态。
14.Up till then we ______half the distance.
A.had only covered B.covered
C.would only cover D.would be only covered
答案:A 句子的时间状语为up till then,表示是“过去之过去”的动作,所以选择过去完成时态。
15.______when the bell rang.
A.Hardly would he reach school B.Hardly had he reached school
C.Hardly he reached school D.Hardly he was reaching school

V.阅读理解
There is no doubt that students should learn something about how computers work,just as we expect them at least to understand that the internal combustion engine(内燃机)has something to do with burning fuel,expanding gases and pistons(活塞)being driven.For people should have some basic idea of how the things that they use do what they do.Further,students might be helped by a course that considers the computer’s effect on society.But that is not what is meant by computer literacy(读写能力).For computer literacy is not a form of literacy;it is a trade skill that should not be taught as a liberal art.
Learning how to use a computer and learning how to program one are two different activities.A case might be made that the able citizens of tomorrow should free themselves from their fear of computers.But this is quite different from saying that all ought to know how to program one.Leave that to people who have chosen programming as a career(职业).While programming can be lots of fun,and while our society needs some people who are experts at it.
Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult,and it gets easier all the time as programs become more“user-friendly”.Let us assume(假定)that in the future everyone is going to have to know how to use a computer to be a competent citizen.What does the phrase“learning to use a computer”mean It sounds like“learning to drive a car”,that is,it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that,once gained,enable one to use a computer.
In fact,learning to use a computer is much more like“learning to play a game”,but learning the rules of one game may not help you play a second game,whose rules may not be the same.There is no such thing as teaching someone who uses a computer.One can only teach people to use this or that program,and generally that is easily performed.
36.Learning to use a computer is getting easier all the time because______.
A.programs are becoming much simpler
B.programs are designed to be convenient to users
C.programming is becoming easier and easier
D.programs are becoming readily easier for computer users to buy
答案:B 本题为细节题。从第三段“..., and it gets easier all the time as programs become more ‘user-friendly’.”得此答案。在此user-friendly意思是convenient to users。
37.According to the author,the phrase“learning to use a computer”means“learning______”.
A.a set of rules
B.the basic knowledge of computer science
C.specific programs
D.general rules of programming
答案:C 词义推测题。B项有较大干扰性。从第三段对此词语的解释:“that is,it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that,once gained,enable one to use a computer,”我们可以看出learning to use a computer,我们就极容易地选出B项,然而作者在最后一段又以learning to play a game对此作进一步的解释,由此我们可以得出,在使用计算机时,我们不能只学基础的东西,也要学习使用其具体的程序。specific programs意思是“具体的程序”。注意本词组的意思体现在最后两段。
38.The author’s purpose in writing this passage is______.
A.to stress the effect of the computer on society
B.to explain the idea of computer literacy
C.to tell the requirements for being competent citizens of tomorrow
D.to emphasize(强调)that computer programming is an interesting and demanding job
答案:B 作者意图推断题。作者在文章中向我们解释了在使用计算机上的认识问题。
