【答案】B
【解析】
试题分析：考查形容词用法。本题考查的形容词比较级和否定词连用表示最高级。句意：—你对她做的事情满意吗？—非常满意。再好不过了。本题的关键是Not a little表示非常，说明对他做的事情非常满意，故B正确。
22.—We have to stop talking here outside, Listen, !
—Hurry up, or we’ll be late.
A. there goes the bell B. there does the bell go
C. there the bell goes D. goes the bell there
【答案】A

As he was digging, other helpless parents arrived, 43 :“It’ s too late! They’ re all dead! 44 , face reality, there’ s nothing you can do!” To each parent he responded with 45 : “Are you going to help me now?” No one helped. And then he continued to dig for his son, stone by stone.
Courageously he went on alone because he needed to know 46 :“Is my boy 47 or is he dead?” He dug for eight hours…12 hours...24 hours...36 hours...then, in 48 hour, he pulled back a large stone and heard his son’ s 49 . He screamed his son’ s name, “ARMAND!” He heard back,“ Dad!?! It’ s me, Dad! I told the other kids not to worry.

“What’ s going on in there?” the father asked．
“There are 14 of us 52 53 33, dad. We’ re scared, hungry, thirsty and thankful you’ re here. When the building collapsed, it made 54 , and it saved us.”

【答案】36-40 BADAA 41-45 BBDCD 46-50 ACDBA 51-55 ACCDA
【解析】
试题分析：本讲述的的事1989年美国大地震后一父亲在废墟中拯救儿子的故事。
36. only to do sth.“结果却，不料”，作结果状语，表示该结果出乎预料；现在分词作结果状语，表示由主句所产生的逻辑上的结果。 realize在脑海里经过思维“认识到，了解”；find在表面上就能“发现， 看出”。
37. 这四个选项都是英语成语，根据本段第一句an 8.2 earthquake almost flattened America判断，选择A项。
38．从意义上判断，“他想起了他曾对他儿子许下的诺言”；memorize是“背诵，熟记”。
39．从结构上分析，该句是省略了谓语动词的省略句，省略谓语之后，意义仍然清楚，如不省略动词，则使用第三人称单数happens。从意义上分析，可排除C、D项。
40．表示“流泪”，这几个动词都可能表示这种意义，但句式搭配不同，其表达方式分别为Tears fill his eyes；Tears come into his eyes；He bursts into tears。
41．从上下文语境判断，“他不停地想起他对他儿子许下的诺言”。
42． 动词和动词短语是完形填空设项的重点之一。此题要分清这四项的不同含义。dig及物动词，“掘（土），挖”；dig through“（为找……）在……里挖掘”；dig out “发掘出” dig into“钻研”。
43．从结构上分析，应该用现在分词作伴随状语，用and则表示并列，用said。
44．come on表示劝说，不耐烦，意为“得啦！，来！”，可用Come, Come，代替。
45．从词义上判断one line“一句话”，A项中的one word干扰性较大，它表示“一个词”，如用words 是正确的。
46． “介词+反身代词”有固定含义，for oneself独自地，亲自；by oneself单独地；of oneself自行地，自动地；to oneself 对（着）自己。
47． 这四个词都有“活着的”之意，live仅用作定语，作表语用living，alive。living和alive在意义上有细微差别，living可作定语和表语，含有“本以为死了，然而还活着”，又如：I can’ t believe my first teacher is still living。alive作表语和后置定语，其含义与dead相对应。lively“生动的，活跃的”。
48． “在第38小时的时候，……”，序数词之前要用定冠词。
49． 注意这四个词的区别：sound “（各种）声音”；voice“（人们说话的）嗓音” noise“（不悦耳的）噪音”；tone“（人们说话的）语气，语调”。
50．这是表将来的虚拟语气，主句中用would +动词原形，从下文的句子中也能找到类似的句子。
51．从意义上判断，“如果你来救我，他们也会得救。”是条件状语从句，应该用if 引导，然而选项中没有if，when与if同义，引导条件状语从句。even if 引导让步状语从句。
52． 此题包含一个固定句型：There are … left. “还有……剩余下来”。
53． 14 …out of 33 意为：33人中有14人活下来。out of “从……里面”。特别注意此题中的介词与前面的left没有任何联系。如果没有意识到这点，极可能会误选B。
54．从意义上判断，“房屋倒塌时，自然形成的三角空隙”。而make room; make a space 意为“（有意识地）为……腾出空间”。
55．从上下文语境判断，此句为原因状语从句。
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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
What will power your house in the future？Nuclear，wind，or solar power？According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT)in the US，it might be leaves—but artificial(人造的)ones.
Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy. It is known as photosynthesis(光合作用)．Now researchers have found a way to imitate this seemingly simple process.
The artificial leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his colleagues at MIT can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts(催化剂)．Similar to natural leaves，it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell，which uses those two materials to produce electricity，located either on top of a house or beside the house.
Though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card，scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries.“ One can imagine villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology，”said Nocera at a conference of the American Chemical Society.
The artificial leaf is not a new idea. The first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use. The new leaf，by contrast，is made of cheap materials，easy to use and highly stable.In laboratory studies，Nocera showed that an artificial leaf prototype(原型)could operate continuously for at least 45 hours without a drop in activity.
The wonderful improvements come from Nocera's recent discovery of several powerful，new and inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now，the new leaf is about 10 times more efficient at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Besides，the device can run in whatever water is available；that is，it doesn't need pure water. This is important for some countries that don't have access to pure water.
With the goal to “make each home its own power station” and “give energy to the poor”，scientists believe that the new technology could be widely used in developing countries，especially in India and rural China.
56．Which of the following orders correctly shows how the artificial leaf is used to produce electricity?
a．artificial leaves split water into hydrogen and oxygen
b．the hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in a fuel cell
c．the artificial leaves are put in water
d．the fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity
A．c，b，a，d B．c，a，b，d
C．b，c，a，d D．c，a，d，b
57．The purpose of the scientists at MIT in developing the new artificial leaf is to________.
A．build up more power stations in the world
B．provide cheaper energy for developing countries
C．offer people in developing countries access to pure water
D．gain a deeper understanding of the photosynthesis process
58．The main idea of this passage is ________.
A．an introduction to the history of artificial leaves
B．an invention copying photosynthesis
C．giving energy to the poor
D．a mixture of water power and solar energy
59．The underlined word “imitate” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “________”．
A．produce B．hold C．prevent D．copy
【答案】56-59 BBBD
【解析】
试题分析： 本文是一篇科普文。文章介绍了科学家利用人造树叶仿效光合作用进行发电这一新发明。
56. 细节排序题。文章的第三段提到人造树叶发电的过程：先把它放在一桶水里，然后树叶将水分解为氢气和氧气，而氢气和氧气被存储于燃料电池里，随后电池利用氢气和氧气的反应发电。
57. 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，人造树叶发电这一技术可以帮助发展中国家获得便宜的能源。
58. 主旨大意题。综观全文可知，本文主要讲述了人造树叶模拟光合作用发电这一新发明。
59. 词义猜测题。画线部分的前文介绍了什么是光合作用，后文介绍了利用人造树叶效仿这种光合作用进行发电的内容，所以该词的含义应该是“仿效”，故D项是最佳答案。
B
Animals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies need．It has been demonstrated（证明）that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, prefer water with vitamins to water without vitamins even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottles．When a fragrant（香的）flavor（作料）was added to the vitamin-enriched water, the rats did seem to prefer it and kept drinking it ,even after the vitamins were switched to the clear water．In time, however, they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were．
In a classic experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria（自助） feeding arrangement, with a wide selection of baby food before them．They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested in．We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating patterns, but that over a period of time they managed to select well-balanced diet．
So, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on what's best for them．Apparently, there is a kind of “body wisdom”, which humans soon lose．Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could．Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long-established habits．Some people eat fox, dog and blackbirds, while we eat cows and pigs．So what people eat and how much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around them．
60．In the experiment on rats, a fragrant flavor was added to the rats’ drinking water to _____________ .
A. encourage rats to drink vitamins-enriched water
B. find out rats’ preference in flavor
C. test whether rats know which drink is good for them
D. demonstrate the vitamins are tasteless
61．According to the passage ,adults eating habits differ from those of babies because_________．
A．adults know better than babies what kind of food are good for their health
B．adults usually cannot resist the temptation of various delicious foods
C．adults' eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customs
D．adults have more choices of food than babies in eating patterns
62．The author implied in the passage that most of us_________．
A．eat a balanced diet
B．choose the food that is of nutrition
C．have the habits influenced by the surroundings
D．like to eat the food with a fragrant flavor．
63．As far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats are similar in that_________．
A．both have the wisdom to choose a balanced diet
B．both prefer flavored food and drink
C．both have the same eating patterns
D．both develop a taste for the same kinds of flavors
【答案】61-64 CCCA
【解析】
试题分析：
60. 综合推理题。 第一段“Animals seem to …bodies need. ”和“In time , however,
they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were. ”可知C正确。
61. 综合推理题。 最后一段“…there is a kind of ‘body wisdom ’ , which humans soon
lose . Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could . Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long established habits.” 故选C。
62，作者观点题。读完短文结合文章最后一段的最后一句“So what people eat and how
much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around them．”可知答案是C。
63,. 细节理解题。 根据第二段“…they managed to choose a well-balanced diet.”
C
When your pet meets your infant(婴儿)，it might not be love at first sniff. When Jennifer brought her baby home from the hospital, her cherished dogs had very different reactions. Her Boxer, Sonya, was immediately gentle and protective. But Tiger, the Pomeranian, was less welcoming. “If any diapers(尿布)or toys were on the floor, he peed on them,” says the Greenbrier, mom. In the eyes of a pet, there’s a new star in home who’s stealing his spotlight. Even the gentlest animal will probably act up if he doesn’t get his usual attention. These simple steps will help your pet adjust and keep your baby safe.
Introduce Them with Care
Your newborn and per’s first encounter can set the tone for their relationship. To make it as smooth as possible, try this trick from Caryn Ruiz：“Before we left the hospital, my husband took blankets home to our dog, Daisy, so she’d know our newborn Devon’s smell.” When you get home, have your husband carry the baby so you can greet your pet without worrying about her jumping on you. A cat will likely walk away at first, while a dog probably wants to investigate right away.
To introduce your baby, get down on your pet’s level and let her have a hello sniff. Don’t panic and pull your baby away unless your pet is barking or hissing, because it’ll send the message that the baby is a threat.
Learn the Safety Basics
No matter how smoothly the introduction goes, there are certain safety rules you should follow. Never leave your baby alone with the pet. Even the gentlest animal can react unpredictably. Your baby’s crying could frighten your cat, or your dog could suddenly become territorial. Consider setting up baby gates to limit your pet’s access. To keep your cat from jumping into the bassinet(有篷盖的摇篮), try putting mosquito netting over the top. Cats hate sticky paws, so keep the crib(有栏杆的婴儿床)and changing table off-limits by lining the edges with sticky strips made for furniture. You can also train your dog to sleep in a crate(大木箱).
64. At the beginning of the passage, the author uses the stories to_____.
A．illustrate possible reactions when pets meet a newborn baby
B．show that pets don’t like a newborn baby
C．prove how friendly a pet is when it meets a newborn baby
D．introduce how terrible the pets are when a mother gets a baby home
65. Who is Sonya mentioned in the 1 st paragraph?
A．Jennifer’s dog. B．Jennifer’s baby.
C．Jennifer’s husband. D．A pet expert.
66. What can we infer from the passage?
A．Cats are more welcoming than dogs when they meet a newborn baby.
B．You must show your baby to your pet dog when it is barking.
C．You should never keep a baby together with your pet.
D．The first introduction of your newborn baby to your pet is important.
67.According to the passage, to keep your baby safe, you should do the following things EXCEPT_____.
A．introducing your baby to your pet with care
B．leaving your baby alone with your pet at the first day when they meet
C．setting up baby gates to limit your baby
D．keeping your pet away from your baby
【答案】63-67 AADB
【解析】
试题分析：
64. 由第一段的内容可知，文章开头讲述的故事是举例说明宠物对家中新成员的到来的反应。
65. 由该段的内容可推测出Sonya是Jennifer的宠物狗。
66. 由Introduce Them with Care部分可知，你的新生婴儿与宠物的第一次见面很重要。
67. 根据全文可知是B。
D

Dear Dick,
How nice to hear from you again! You want to know what is going on in schools in china. In short, things have begun to improve since we called on school to reduce learning load. I don’t know about the others, but I used to have to do works even on weekends by doing endless homework and attending classes as well. Now, I have more free time. I can follow my own interests, such as reading books, visiting museums, and taking computer lessons. In the evenings, I can watch news on TV or read newspapers. What’s more, I can go to bed earlier. As far as I know, everyone is happy about the new arrangement of things.
Best wishes! yours,

2、此句是宾语从句，根据句意应将which改为what。
3、in short是固定搭配，所以去掉冠词a。
4、根据上下文可知此处应是一般过去时，所以将call改为called。
5、根据上下文可知前后两句应该是转折关系，所以将and改为but。
6、从结构看attend和doing应是并列关系，所以将attend改为attending。
7、此处根据上下文，应该用比较级，所以将much改为more。
8、reading books, visiting museums, or taking computer lessons.这几个短语是并列关系而不是选择关系，所以将or改为and。
9、根据句意，此短语意思是“每天晚上”所以将evening改为eveings。
10、根据上下文，此句中没有比较之义，所以将earlier改为early。

I do hope I can manage to get to at least some of the theatres and museums. I' m looking forward to all the things I have to do at the conference, too. I' m giving a paper on Tuesday, the 26th and there are a couple of really exciting events planned later in the conference program. I hope to meet up with an old teacher of mine at the conference. She taught English literature at my old high school and we' ve kept in touch through letters over the years. She teaches now at the University of Durham, and I' m really looking forward to seeing her again.
Would you do me a favour please? I haven' t had time to cancel an appointment. It was made a long time ago and I forgot about it until this morning. It' s with my dentist, for a checkup on Thursday, the 28th. Could you please call the dentist at 816 2525 and cancel the appointment for me? Thanks a lot, John. The last thing. When you leave the house, make sure the windows and doors are shut. Have fun! I'll see you when I get back. This is your friend Peter, saying goodbye.
