A.admit making B.admits making C.admit to make D.admits to make 解析:本题考查主谓一致以及非谓语动词的用法。根据主句的结构the only one分析,此处的that应为单数;而动词admit后面只能跟动名词作宾语。 答案:B 9.Please ______a situation where you can put the daily expressions. A.make out B.make up C.make up for D.put up 解析:本句话的意思为“编制一个能使用这些日常用语的语言环境”。 答案:B 10.How do you______ it and what should I______ it? A.deal with;deal with B.deal with;do with C.do with;deal with D.do with;do with 解析:deal为不及物动词,其后需加介词with后才可跟宾语,而do为及物动词,可以说,do something with something,即how...deal with something,what...do with something。 答案:B 11.It is said that in Australia there is more land than the government knows ______. A.it what to do with B.what to do it with C.what to do with it D.to do what with it 解析:本题考查“疑问代词+动词不定式”结构。首先排除A、D两项,因为它们的语序有误;再排除B项,因为do with是一个动词短语,不可分开;故选C项。 答案:C 12.—Have you heard that Tom,along with his parents,______to Japan? —Really?No wonder I haven’t seen him these days. A.has been B.has gone C.have been D.have gone 解析:本题考查主谓一致和短语辨析。分析句子的结构可以看出,此处的主语应该为Tom,所以用单数。从后面一句话所提供的语境“这几天我没有见到他”分析,此处用has gone,表示人不在这里。 答案:B 13.When and where to go for the on-salary holiday ______ yet. A.are not decided B.have not been decided C.is not being decided D.has not been decided 解析:本题考查主谓一致和时态。因主语为一个动词不定式短语,所以应为单数,再根据时间状语yet分析,此处使用现在完成时态。 答案:D 14.No one in the department but Tom and I ______ that the director is going to resign. A.knows B.know C.have known D.am to know 解析:本题考查动词时态和主谓一致。当but连接的成分作主语时,谓语动词应该根据but前的部分确定单复数。 答案:A 15. Along with the letter was his promise ______ he would visit me this coming Christmas. A.which B.that C.what D.whether 解析:本题考查名词性从句的引导词的用法。根据句子的意思分析,此处应该是同位语从句,用来解析promise的意思,所以使用that引导。 答案:B 16.When they had finished playing,the children were told to ______ all the toys they had taken out.

A.hang;including B.are hung;together with C.is hanged;with D.is hanging;as well as 解析:从第二个空所给的四个选项来看,都可以用来连接并列成分,主语根据前面的那个词来定。including不符合逻辑。从主谓一致排除B项。此处是表示客观的事实“悬挂”而不是强调由谁挂的。 答案:D 20.—What do you know about Darwin after he returned from the trip by sea? —Well,he got married and ______ down to live in Kent. A.got B.worked C.took D.settled 解析:短语settle down的意思为“定居”。 答案:D (第二组) 1.It was in Beihai Park ______ they made a date for the first time ______ the old couple told us their love story. A.where;that B.that;that C.where;when D.that;when 解析:本题考查定语从句和强调句型的区别。第一个空为定语从句,用where引导,表示made a date的地点;第二个空为强调句型,用that引导,强调told us their love story的地点。 答案:A 2.She is in a poor ______of health,which worries her mother much. A.position B.situation C.state D.condition 解析:名词position①“位置”;②“状况,环境”=condition。situation=condition;state of affairs“状态;事态”。state“人或物在环境、外观、心情、健康等方面的状态;情况;情形”。通过语境可知,此处表示的是她的身体状况很差,所以使用state。 答案:C 3.My father ______ my brother for driving but he wanted to pick ______ the knowledge of the computer during his spare time. A.advised;up B.persuaded;out C.intended;up D.managed;out 解析:短语intend sb. for sth.意为“打算让某人做某事”。 答案:C 4. It was with great joy ______ he received the news that his lost daughter had been found.

A.find B.know C.understand D.find out 解析:作“发现”解find out=to learn of;discover a fact that was hidden by study,calculation,inquiry,etc.通过研究、计算、询问来“获知、得知、探知”隐蔽起来的事实。而find=get or discover(sb./sth.,not lost,forgotten,etc.) after search,experience,effort通过搜寻、体验、努力“找到、发现”某人或某物。 答案:D 7. Is it Shakespeare Theatre ______ you are going to watch the play Hamlet? A.where B.that C.which D.as 解析:本题考查定语从句引导词的用法。代词it在这里表示地点,关系副词where引导定语从句。注意不要把这句话误认为是强调句型而误选that。如果是强调句型,应该在地点前加介词in。 答案:A 8.The doctor said that the patient had ______ at once. A.to operate B.to be operated C.operated D.to be operated on 解析:operate作“动手术”讲时,是不及物动词,所以表示“给某人动手术”用短语operate on sb.,其被动语态介词on应该保留。 答案:D 9.Wait till you are more ______.It’s better to be sure than sorry. A.inspired B.satisfied C.calm D.certain 解析:通过语境考查形容词的区别。根据后句话的意思“弄确实比以后遗憾要好”,判断此处应用sure的同义词certain。 答案:D 10.It is the ability to do the job ______ matters not where you come from or what you are. A.one B.that C.what D.it 解析:本题考查强调句型的用法。强调句型的结构为:It is/was+被强调部分+that(强调人时可用who)+其他部分。特别要注意强调句型和定语从句的区别。强调句型可在不增加任何成分的前提下还原成陈述句结构,而定语从句不可。 答案:B 11.I would appreciate it ______ you call back this afternoon for the doctor’s appointment.

A.that;since B.that;when C.when;that D.since;before 解析:从第一句话的句子结构和句子的意思分析,此句应是强调句型,被强调的内容为:for two months,所以用that引导。第二句的结构为:It is+ 一段时间+since,意思为“……已经多久了”。 答案:A 16.Though bought ten years ago,the car is still in good ______. A.situation B.condition C.position D.station 解析: in good condition在此处表示“状况很好”的意思。 答案:B 17.The bird flu ______through Asia has jumped from birds to humans at least 20 times so far,______16. A.sweeps;killed B.swept;killing C.sweeping;to kill D.sweeping;killing 解析:本题考查非谓语动词作定语和伴随状语的用法。第一个空用现在分词作定语,相当于谓语动词为主动的定语从句结构;第二个空为非谓语动词作伴随状语,表示和has jumped同时发生的动作。 答案:D 18.—Why was he fined? —He happened to ______ flowers in the park. A.be seen step on B.be seen picking C.be caught to pull D.catch damaging 解析:本题考查动词辨析以及非谓语动词的语态。根据句子的意思分析,此处应该使用被动。A项的step on作be seen的宾补时,不能用原形;C项的结构应该为be caught doing sth.。 答案:B 19.—The cars give off a great deal of waste gas into streets. —Yes.But I’m sure something will be done to ______ it. A.reduce B.remove C.collect D.warn 解析:此处为采取措施“减少”废气排放。 答案:A 20.We tried to ______ his doubts and let him tell the truth.

A.tried to open B.tried opening C.managed to open D.attempted opening 解析:从后面的一句话所提供的语境分析,此处应该为“试图去开后门”的意思。D项的attempt在表达此意时,应该跟to do形式。 答案:B 2. ______ full preparations,we decided to put off the meeting till next week. A.We did not make B.Having not made C.We had not made D.Not having made 解析:本题考查非谓语动词作状语的用法。因A、C两项没有状语从句的引导词,可先排除。现在分词的否定结构为在结构前加not。 答案:D 3. It suddenly ______ to the detective that the millionaire was probably murdered by his own daughter. A.happened B.occurred C.thought D.took place 解析: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。 答案:B 4.—What ______ you to come the party? —An unexpected accident ______ me going. A.prevented;forbad B.protected;forbad C.forbad;prevented D.stopped;kept 解析:该题考查动词搭配及意思的辨析。forbid sb.to do禁止某人做某事;prevent sb.(from)doing防止、妨碍某人做某事;stop sb.(from)doing让某人停止做某事;keep sb.from doing不让某人做某事;protect sb.from+n. 保护某人躲开某物。 答案:C 5.Try to use traveler’s cheques if possible and avoid ______too much money.

A.got through;got through B.got up;got through C.got through;got into D.got over;got out 解析:第一处为“接通电话”;第二处为“通过考试”。 答案:A 8. It seems difficult to______hurt from injure in meaning. A.judge B.tell C.divide D.separate 解析:judge from...“根据……判断”;tell...from...“区别;区分”;divide...into“把……分成几份”;separate...from...“把……和……分开”。根据句子的意思分析,此处用tell,表示“区分开hurt和injure意思的不同”。 答案:B 9.We can’t work together any more,I think it’s time we went in ______ ways. A.own B.different C.separate D.proper 解析:从前一句话中的can’t work together any more的意思分析,此处为“分道扬镳”。 答案:C 10.In the ______ house the firefighters saved a lot of______ people,but they couldn’t be sent to hospital because of the______ road. A.damaged;blocked;injured B.destroyed;damaged;blocking C.damaged;injured;blocked D.blocked;wounded;injured 解析:选damaged作“遭受破坏的”解。injured作“受伤的”解,指外伤。wounded作“受伤,挂彩”解,指的是打仗时受的伤。blocked作“阻塞的”解,都是过去分词作前置定语,都有完成、被动的意思,故选C项。 答案:C 11.He was in hospital for six months.He felt as if he was ______ from the outside world.

A.turn B.chance C.order D.opportunity 解析:从后面一句话所提供的another round“另一轮次”分析,此处应该使用turn。 答案:A 18.______ that the problem was more than he could deal with,he called the police for help. A.Having been realized B.To realize C.Realized D.Realizing 解析:本题考查非谓语动词作状语的用法。根据主句主语he和动词realize之间的逻辑关系,此处应该表示主动,故可先排除A、C两个表示被动的选项。B项表示目的,和语境及句子意思不相符。 答案:D 19.An excellent idea ______ to me when I woke up this morning.

When you are curious about the way someone behaves or the way 23 feel about something,it’s 24 that you will be annoyed(恼火). When someone acts in a way that seems 25 to you,rather than react in your usual way,such as“I can’t believe they would do that”, 26 say something to yourself like“I see,that must be the way they 27 things in their world.Very interesting.”In order for this 28 to help you,you have to be genuine(真诚的). Recently I was at a shopping mall with my six-year-old daughter 29 a group of punk rockers walked by with orange spiked hair and tattoos(文身)covering much of their bodies.At the sight of them,my daughter immediately asked me,“Daddy,why are they 30 like that?”Years ago I would have felt very 31 with such young people.I would have given a judgmental explanation and passed along to her my 32 .Pretending to be an anthropologist,however,has 33 my perspective(看法)a great deal,so it’s made me 34 .I said to my daughter,“I’m not really sure,but it’s interesting how 35 we all are,isn’t it?”She said,“Yeah, 36 I like my own hair.” When you are interested in other perspectives,it doesn’t mean you’re 37 them.I certainly wouldn’t choose a punk rock lifestyle or 38 it to anyone else.At the same time,however,it’s really not my 39 to judge it either.One of the most important rules of joyful living is that judging others takes a great deal of energy and 40 you away from where you want to be. 21.A.agreement B.judgment C.improvement D.entertainment 解析:without judgment的意思是“不加判断地”,相当于下文解释该句的curious。 答案:B 22.A.behave B.speak C.grow D.eat 解析:B、C、D项都表示的是behave(行为)的具体表现,此处的A项正好和下文的解释相吻合。 答案:A 23.A.you B.they C.I D.we 解析:英文中常用they来指代someone。 答案:B 24.A.natural B.certain C.obvious D.impossible 解析:既然你对别人的生活和行为感兴趣,那么你也就不可能感到不安了。 答案:D 25.A.normal B.common C.strange D.passive 解析:从下文“rather than react in your usual way”来看,此处的意思是“别人的行为方式使你感到奇怪”。 答案:C 26.A.just B.also C.still D.never 解析:由when引导的从句到“...they would do that”为止,say是祈使句中的谓语,由此开始是告诫自己的话,因此,say之前用just。 答案:A 27.A.make B.find C.see D.get 解析:see在此相当于regard(看待)。make things表示“制造物品”;find things表示“(丢失后又)找到物品”;D项表示“得到物品”,均与题意不符。 答案:C 28.A.person B.way C.interest D.word 解析:第二段谈论的都是别人或者你自己的“行为方式”,因此,此处表示的是“为了让这种方式对你有益”。 答案:B 29.A.while B.until C.since D.when 解析:when在此处是并列连词,相当于and suddenly。 答案:D 30.A.tried on B.grown up C.acted out D.dressed up 解析:在这四个选项中,只有D项可以用于被动语态,表示“打扮”,和上文描述的那群人发型相吻合。 答案:D 31.A.pleased B.interested C.bored D.excited 解析:其他三项表示的都是积极意义的单词,只有C项表示消极意义。从下文看,作者对那群人的穿衣打扮是“厌烦的”。 答案:C 32.A.views B.questions C.advice D.plan 解析:views在此相当于opinion,表示“意见、看法”。 答案:A 33.A.blocked B.changed C.enlarged D.raised 解析:上文谈论的是以前的看法,此处谈论的是现在不同的看法,因此说,看法已有了改变。 答案:B 34.A.softer B.higher C.happier D.angrier 解析:soft在此表示言行性格的“宽厚”。既然经过了多年的磨炼,看法已经改变了许多,那么整个人也就变得比过去“温和”了。 答案:A 35.A.similar B.confident C.humorous D.different 解析:那群人的发型和“我们所有人的”是不一样的,因此才显得有趣。 答案:D 36.A.and B.but C.so D.or 解析:从“我喜欢自己的头发样式”来看,此处应用表示转折意思的but。 答案:B 37.A.like B.for C.beside D.against 解析:be for的意思相当于agree;like和be动词连用时是介词(像);C项表示“在旁边”;D项表示“反对”。 答案:B 38.A.present B.connect C.send D.suggest 解析:D项表示“把这种发型推荐给别人”;发型是没有办法“赠送;连接;寄送”给别人的,因此排除A、B、C项。 答案:D 39.A.place B.attempt C.fault D.decision 解析:place在此表示“工作,职责”。 答案:A 40.A.gives B.brings C.pulls D.puts 解析:pull oneself away为固定短语,意思是“使自己离开”。 答案:C B.阅读理解 (第二组) 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从21~40各题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中,选出最佳答案。 In history,a real cowboy was a simple farm worker on horseback.He spent a long time a day outdoors working with cows.The work was dirty,tiring and not very well paid.

Today,the 35 of cowboys has 36 greatly.One change is the use of trucks.The job is not so hard 37 it used to be.And cowboys are better 38 now.They are 39 to be married.Some of them are farmers or teachers or truck drivers.Some work for big companies. 40 at night and on weekends,they become cowboys.These part-time cowboys increase the total production of meat,keeping the beef price low. 21.A.get B.buy C.sell D.raise 解析:at low cost“以低的花费/代价/成本”。养牛时当然追求低成本,将来卖牛时当然应当是高价钱,这样才能从中获得更高利润,从此处可知21空选raise cattle(养牛)。 答案:D 22.A.markets B.countries C.cities D.stories 解析:从下文可看出是要先走公路后上火车,然后卖牛,所以此处应选markets(市场)。 答案:A 23.A.deal with B.find out C.look after D.pay off 解析:牛仔(cowboy)的工作是“赶牛”上火车,所以应是look after(照料)。 答案:C 24.A.road B.railroad C.state D.farm 解析:因为上文已出现railroad,及表语more than a thousand kilometers away,所以用railroad。 答案:B 25.A.good B.much C.long D.far 解析:表达要take(花费)6个月的时间,自然用as long as(长达),才与句意吻合。 答案:C 26.A.journey B.trip C.tour D.travel 解析:四个选项虽然都有“旅行”之意,但只有journey可表示“路程,行程”。 答案:A 27.A.hurriedly B.smoothly C.slowly D.carefully 答案:C 28.A.mind B.direction C.head D.weight 解析:27、28两个空是相互联系在一起的,都要根据后边的句子 “be sold at a good price”,所以不能让牛瘦了,因此用not to lose weight。因此只有“slowly”慢慢走,不让牛过于劳累,牛才不会减重。 答案:D 29.A.unmarried B.proud C.strong D.educated 解析:因为一出去就是6个月,因此最好是未婚男人——不必照料妻子和孩子,选项C应当也不错,但不如A项与上文联系紧。 答案:A 30.A.had B.made C.found D.helped 解析:句子最后有easier,用于此句型(形容词作宾补)的词此处只有found和made,不是“发现容易”,而是“一匹好马会使他的赶牛的工作容易得多”,所以选B。 答案:B 31.A.recognized B.understood C.owned D.kept 解析:只有“懂得牛”——有这方面的常识和积累的经验,才是一个好的cowboy,也才能“know how to control them”。 答案:B 32.A.whispered B.shouted C.cried D.sang 解析:音乐/乐曲能使人/动物心态平和下来,这是一般的常识。所以用sang“唱歌”;B、C两项为“大叫大喊”,容易激怒、急躁;而whispered“小声,耳语”也不对,一个cowboy带一群牛,他不可能跟一头头牛去说。 答案:D 33.A.towns B.factories C.companies D.villages 解析:这是美国扩大工业生产的时期,因此句子里用了“changing from a nation of farm to...”,farm应和factories相对,而不会和towns/villages相对,因为不属同一类。 答案:B 34.A.free B.brave C.easy D.pleased 解析:工厂的工作是跟大机器连在一起,工厂都有严格的纪律要求,因此相比较而言,cowboys就比较free了。 答案:A 35.A.manner B.job C.life D.mind 解析:最后一段说的都是他们的变化,通读后知道都是生活方面的。 答案:C 36.A.changed B.developed C.improved D.realized 解析:下一句话第一个词就是one change,说明此处用changed。 答案:A 37.A.that B.as C.which D.what 解析:用了比较句型not so hard as。 答案:B 38.A.known B.paid C.treated D.dressed 解析:该空其实用B、C、D项都不错,表示“付的工资高了”“对待得好了”“衣着穿得更讲究些了”,但是treated最佳,因为只有雇方对待他们更好了,才会有较高的工资,也才会有钱去买衣服。而known“更出名了”,与上下文不吻合。 答案:C 39.A.afraid B.eager C.worried D.likely 解析:be likely to do可能……,这与前面29空unmarried前后呼应。be eager to be married此处的意思也不错,但要表达“cowboy的生活改变了”结果之一是才“有可能”去谈婚论嫁,而不是过去不想结婚,现在“渴望”结婚,A、C选项与这段话“变化”不吻合。 答案:D 40.A.Because B.And C.When D.But 解析:前面是for big companies“为大公司干活”,后面是become cowboys,前后转折,所以用But。 答案:D (第三组) Two friends visited the zoo together.The zoo was very large and it was 21 to go everywhere.They had to decide where and which animal to visit as their time was 22 .So both of them agreed not to 23 after choosing a 24 at every fork(岔路口). A road sign at the first fork 25 one way to the lion quarters and the other to the tiger hill.They decided on the former after a 26 discussion because lions were“the king of the grassland”.The second showed a division(路口)going separately to the panda and peacock.They 27 panda as it was the nation’s treasure and went its way. 28 they made choices all along the way and each choice meant 29 what they couldn’t help regretting.But they had to make it,and 30 ,for it brooked(容忍)no delay.If they hesitated(犹豫不决)they would miss 31 .Only 32 decision could offer more chances for sightseeing and 33 possible regret. Life is 34 like this—choices often occur that one has to make,for example,between two 35 jobs,two fascinating wooers(追求者).To get one you 36 give up the other—you can get half of it.If you 37 weighing the pros and cons and calculating gains and losses,you will most likely 38 empty-handedness.Don’t be sad about it. 39 you have got half of the desirable things in life—something that is 40 to come by. 21.A.easy B.eager C.impossible D.possible 解析:动物园非常大,而他们的时间又是有限的,所以每个地方都去是不可能的。 答案:C 22.A.enough B.limited C.tight D.plentiful 解析:一个时间紧,一个地方大。这是他们要有选择地去看的两个原因。 答案:B 23.A.return B.come C.go D.go back 解析:return“原路返回,折回”。在岔路口如果不计划好,很可能会从原路折回再到另一处,这样就大大浪费了时间。 答案:A 24.A.main road B.branch C.crossing D.highway 解析:branch “分枝,(河流、道路、线路等)分岔”。既然在岔路口就不再是main road (大道),crossing(十字路口),highway(公路,高速公路)。 答案:B 25.A.showed B.pointed C.intended D.made 解析:show“指示,告示,指出”,如:The clock shows half past two.时钟的针指着两点半;point加上out可以表达“指出”之意;intend“打算,意欲”。 答案:A 26.A.brief B.long C.no D.heated 解析:和discussion搭配可用brief,意为“简短的讨论”;long discussion“长时间的讨论”,用brief最恰当。 答案:A 27.A.hoped B.wanted C.favored D.got 解析:favor意为“偏爱”。 答案:C 28.A.Happily B.Thus C.Then D.Finally 解析: “因此/鉴于此,他们不得不一路都要作出选择。” 答案:B 29.A.getting B.taking C.grasping D.giving up 解析:在他们所作的决定中,每一个选择都意味着要放弃某些东西,而放弃这些,往往令人禁不住感到遗憾。give up“放弃,舍弃”。另外三个词均含有“得到,抓住”之意,和give up意思相反。 答案:D 30.A.slowly B.immediately C.timely D.easily 解析:根据本句后半部分可知“不容许耽搁”。slowly“缓慢地”;timely“及时地”,强调“适当的时间”;easily“容易地”。 答案:B 31.A.less B.more C.most D.least 解析:犹豫不决、优柔寡断只能耽误更多的时间,错过更多的景致。 答案:B 32.A.high B.slow C.short D.rapid 解析:只有快速地作出决定才能提供更多观光的机会,从而减少可能的遗憾。 答案:D 33.A.increase B.cause C.reduce D.raise 解析:reduce“减少”;increase“增加”;raise“提高”;cause“引起”。 答案:C 34.A.just exactly B.more or less C.hardly D.most 解析:more or less“大致,大约”。上面这个故事所说明的道理借用到生活上,大致也是如此。just exactly“恰好,精确地”;hardly“几乎不”,与文意不符;most是代词或形容词“大部分”。 答案:B 35.A.unwanted B.rejected C.enjoyable D.desirable 解析:这几个是生活中的例子,和上面的故事相似。说明一个道理:鱼和熊掌不能兼得。desirable“非常想做的,令人满意的”。前两项应排除。reject“拒绝的,拒收的”;enjoyable“令人愉快的”。这个词的意义没有desirable那么强,那么令人难以割舍。 答案:D 36.A.wish B.want C.must D.have to 解析:have to “不得不”,因客观原因,主观无能为力。must“必须”,强调主观认为有必要。wish,want表示主观的愿望。 答案:D 37.A.spend time B.kill time C.have a hard time D.hope for 解析:此处表示如果犹豫不决,患得患失,权衡利弊,那么就可能一无所获,两手空空。spend time doing“花时间做某事”;kill time“消磨时间,打发日子”;have a hard time“过得很艰难”;hope for“希望得到”。 答案:A 38.A.start with B.get up C.succeed in D.end up in 解析:end up in“以某事而作为结局”;start with“以……开始”;get up“起床,起身”;succeed in“成功地做某事”。 答案:D 39.A.By no means B.Not in the least C.At most D.At least 解析:at last “至少”。by no means,not in the least意思均是“一点也不”;at most“至多”。文章的最后以幽默的语调结尾:“不要难过,至少你能得到生活中最想要的东西的一半——最难得到的东西。” 答案:D 40.A.stupid B.delighted C.hard D.supported 解析:hard=difficult。短语动词come by的意思是为“得到”,相当于get。 答案:C 三.阅读理解实战训练及精析: 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中,选出最佳答案。 A For many in the United States,Arab-Americans are an invisible part of the population.Though Arab-Americans as a community have made great contributions to American society in fields from literature to politics to medicine,many Americans know very little about Americans of Arab backgrounds. Arab history in the United States goes back to the late 1800’s when large numbers of Arab immigrants first began making their journey to a land known simply as“Amreeka”. Historians generally describe Arab immigration to America in two waves.The first wave took place between 1860 and 1924.The first wave consisted of Lebanese and Syrian,and some Egyptian immigrants.These new immigrants,who were mostly Christian,came to America in search of better opportunities.Even the doomed Titanic,which set sail for America in 1912,had close to a hundred Arab passengers aboard.The majority of Arab-Americans today are descendents of the first wave of immigrants;they are the third or more generation Americans. The second wave of immigrants followed after World War Ⅱ,caused by political unrest in the Middle East.This second wave of immigrants consists of mainly Arab Muslims(穆斯林)and continues to this day. Arab-Americans make up 3 million of the population in the United States,according to demographers.And quite different from popular belief,64 percent of them are American-born.Eighty-two percent of Arab-Americans are US citizens. Arab-Americans are beyond the national average in both education and income.Education is important among Arab-Americans;82 percent have high school diplomas,36 percent have bachelor’s degrees or higher,and 15 percent have graduate degrees.The-median(中位数的) average income among Arab-Americans is $39 580,which is higher than the US average. 41.What would be the best title for the text? A.Arabs in America. B.The Two Arab Immigration Waves to America. C.Arab-Americans,Contributions to America. D.Arab-Americans,Education and Income. 解析:整篇文章都在谈在美国的阿拉伯人的过去和现在的生活状况。其他选项属细节问题。 答案:A 42.The first wave of immigrants took place because______. A.all Arabs were Christian at that time B.Arabs wanted to hunt for a better development C.the Second World War broke out D.Arabs wanted to gain higher income 解析:在第三段中有一句“...come to America in search of better opportunities”暗示了本题的答案。 答案:B 43.The writer of this passage mentioned Titanic______. A.to tell us that taking ship at that time was dangerous B.because Titanic became a well-known disaster C.to show us there were many Arabs flocking into America at that time D.to inform us that Arabs are brave enough 解析:作者为了说明当时有很多阿拉伯人蜂拥到美国去淘金,举了一个例子,即当年Titanic上都有将近100个阿拉伯人要去美国。 答案:C 44.From the last paragraph we can infer that______. A.Arab-Americans are much more clever than native Americans B.Arab-Americans are hard-working people C.the higher education you receive,the higher income you will get in America D.Arab-Americans play the most important role in the American average in both education and income 解析:最后一段作者列举了阿拉伯人有很多高学历的人,整个在美国的阿拉伯人所受的教育程度比美国平均值更高,而且所得的收入也相应更高。 答案:C B Disposing(处理)of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it.As more and more people choose to live close together in cities,the waste-disposal problem becomes increasingly difficult. During the eighteenth century,it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dump site.Residents or trash haulers(垃圾拖运者)would transport household rubbish,rotted wood,and old possessions to the site.Periodically some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried.The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by. Factories,mills,and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of.Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water.Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem. Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society.The first problem is space Dumps,which are now called landfills,are most needed in heavily populated areas.Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose.Property is either too expensive or too close to residential neighborhoods.Long-distance trash hauling has been a common practice but once farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere,cheap land within trucking distance of major city areas is almost nonexistent. Awareness of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of waste disposal.Pollution of rivers,ground water,land and air is a price people can no longer pay to get rid of waste.The amount of waste,however,continues to grow. Recycling efforts have become commonplace,and many towns require their people to take part.Even the most efficient recycling programs,however,can hope to deal with only about 50 percent of a city’s reusable waste. 45.The most suitable title for this passage would be ______. A.Places for Disposing Waste B.Waste Pollution Dangers C.Ways of Getting Rid of Waste D.Waste Disposal Problem 解析:第一段告诉了读者本文的中心思想。 答案:D 46.During the 18th century,people disposed their waste in many ways EXCEPT for ______. A.burying it B.recycling it C.burning it D.throwing it into rivers 解析:从文章第二、三段可知。 答案:B 47.What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph? A.Farm areas accept waste from the city in modern society. B.There is cheap land to bury waste in modern society. C.It is difficult to find space to bury waste in modern society. D.Ways to deal with waste in modern society stay the same. 解析: 18世纪所使用的垃圾处理方法是烧、埋、倾倒进河里。第四段论述了这些方法在现代社会的不可接受性。文中历数了用这些方法处理垃圾的问题,可见在方法上没有进展。 答案:D 48.The main purpose of writing this article is to ______. A.draw people’s attention to waste management B.warn people of the pollution dangers we are facing C.call on people to take part in recycling programs D.tell people a better way to get rid of the waste 解析:文章在前两段介绍过去与现在的垃圾处理方法,第三段论述了这种方法所带来的问题。后面是人们对这一问题的认识。最后一段强调利用回收的方法依然不能改变目前的严峻形势。文章旨在引起人们对废物管理的进一步关注。 答案:A C. LONDON(Reuters)—Ecotourism) is causing a lot of damage to wildlife and may be endangering the survival of the very animals people are flocking to see,according to researchers.Biologists and conservationists are worried because polar bears,dolphins,penguins and other creatures are getting stressed and losing weight and some are dying. “Evidence is growing that many animals do not react well to tourists in their backyard.”New Scientist magazine said. The immediate effects researchers have noticed are changes in behavior,heart rates,or stress hormone(荷尔蒙)levels but they fear it could get much worse and over the long term “could endanger the survival of the very wildlife they want to see”. Although money produced through ecotourism,which has been growing at about 10-30 percent a year,has major benefits for poor countries and people living in rural areas,the Swiss-based World Conservation Union and some governments fear not all projects are audited(审查)and based on environmentally friendly policies,according to the magazine. “Transmission of disease to wildlife,or small changes to wildlife health through disturbance of daily life or increased stress levels,while not obvious to the casual observer,may translate to lower survival and breeding,”said Phillip Seddon of the University of Otago in Dunedin,New Zealand. Scientists have noticed that bottleneck dolphins along the northeastern coast of New Zealand become nervously excited when tourist boats arrive.Similar changes in behavior have been observed in polar bears and yellow-eyed penguins in areas visited by ecotourists are producing smaller babies. Conservationists are now calling for more research into the effect of ecotourism on animals and say the industry must be developed carefully.They also want studies done before new ecotourism projects are started. “The animals’ welfare should be very important because without them there will be no ecotourism,”said Rochelle Constantine of the University of Auckland in New Zealand. 49.What’s the text mainly about? A.Many animals are dying because of lack of money. B.There will be no ecotourism without animals. C.Ecotourism could endanger the survival of the wildlife people want to see. D.More research should be done on ecotourism. 解析:主旨题。第一段是本文的中心思想。 答案:C 50.We may learn from the text that______. A.ecotourism must be developed properly B.polar bears are losing weight without enough food C.all the poor countries have stopped ecotourism D.money produced through ecotourism should be spent on wildlife 解析:细节理解题。从倒数第二段的第一句可知A项正确。 答案:A 51.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text? A.Many animals do not react well in their backyard. B.Polar bears in areas visited by ecotourists are producing smaller babies. C.Ecotourism has been growing at about 10-30 percent a year. D.Studies should be done before new ecotourism projects are started. 解析:细节理解题。从倒数第三段最后一句可知。 答案:B 52.What Rochelle Constantine said in the last paragraph implies that______. A.if people want to get high income,they must develop ecotourism B.animals have rights to live their own life C.animals are people’s good friends D.people should take good care of wildlife 解析:句意猜测题。结合上下文可作出正确判断。 答案:D D Without the atmosphere there would be no weather,no wind,rain,snow,or clouds.Air is all around us;we live at the bottom of a great ocean of air.It is invisible,but we can feel it when it moves.There are miles of air above us,pressing down with great weight on the earth and everything on it.Because air presses down on us from all directions at the same time,and because we are able to bear(忍受)this weight,we do not seem to feel it.But scientists have proved that air has this weight,and that anything that has weight creates (产生)a force called pressure.As changes in air pressure take place,they make air move. Air is a gas that expands(膨胀)when heated,gets lighter,and moves upward.When air is cooled,it gets heavier,sinks close to the earth’s surface,and flows like water in a great river.As warm air rises,cold air rushes in to take its place.Thus winds originate(起源).The winds that blow high above us are caused by the warmer air running away from colder air.The wind we feel near the earth’s surface is the heavy colder air trying hard to catch the warmer air.Changes in temperature cause the air to move.And of course there are many changes,so air movements are taking place practically all the time. 53.The first paragraph mainly tells us the causes of ______. A.why we don’t feel air B.why atmosphere is important to us C.why there is air surrounding us D.why there is air pressure 解析:根据文意可知,本段主要论述为什么空气在我们周围无处不在,我们的头上有数英里厚的大气层,但我们感觉不到。选项D在文中也涉及到一点。但题干上mainly说明要找主要的内容。 答案:A 54.Air moves under such conditions that ______. A.there is air pressure B.the air is heavy C.air pressure doesn’t remain the same all the time D.air comes up and down 解析:空气的流动在于气压的变化。 答案:C 55.Which of the following pictures best tells the movements of warm air and cold air?  解析:根据第二段的第三句可知:热空气上升,冷空气取而代之。 答案:B 56.According to the passage,in some areas if farmers who grow grapes(葡萄)light fires in the early morning,that is because the farmers want to ______. A.drive away warm air B.prevent cold air from coming to harm their plants C.cause more wind D.stop warm air running away 解析:葡萄农为了给葡萄保温而点火。地面上的冷空气经火加温而温度升高,从而架上的葡萄得到暖空气。 答案:B E Japanese people,who never miss a chance to be photographed,were lining up to get their pictures on a postage stamp.Vanity(虚荣)stamps with personal photographs went on sale for the first time in Japan as part of an international postage stamp exhibition.The customer’s photo was taken with a digital camera and then printed on stamp sheets,a process that takes about five minutes.Sold in a sheet of 10 stamps for $8.80,little more than the cost of lunch in Tokyo,each stamp printed a different scene from a traditional painting along with the photo. The stamps can be used normally to mail a letter,and postal officials hope they will help encourage interest in letter writing in the Internet age.“Certainly e-mail is a useful method of communication,but letters are fun in a different way,”said Hatsumi Shimizu an official in the Post Ministry.“We want to show young people that letters can be fun too.” While similar stamp sheets appeared in Australia in 1999 and are now sold in some nations and territories,Japan’s fondness for commemorative photos is likely to make them especially popular here.Indeed,officials had prepared 1 000 sheets but they were sold out in less than 30 minutes.Although the stamps are currently only available as a special service during the exhibition,postal officials said they may start selling them on a regular basis in the future. 57..The best title of this passage might be______. A.Never Miss a Chance to be Photographed B.Your Own Face on a Postage Stamp C.First Japanese Postage Stamps with a Photo D.Letters are as Fun as E-mails 解析:全文讲述在邮票上可以印上个人照片。 答案:B 58.By saying“little more than the cost of lunch in Tokyo”,the author really means______. A.this service is not very expensive B.the cost of this service is very high C.food in Tokyo is very dear D.$8.80 is a very small amount of money 解析:这种服务不是很贵,只比东京的一顿午饭贵一点。 答案:A 59.The purpose of this activity is______. A.to make the international postage stamp exhibition more interesting B.to make more stamps for normal use C.to draw interest in writing letters D.to satisfy Japan’s fondness of commemorative photos 解析:见第二段第一行。 答案:C 60.Which of the following is true according to the passage? A.Japanese people like to take photos. B.This kind of stamps must be used to mail letters. C.Japanese people can get this kind of stamps easily after the stamp exhibition. D.This service is more popular in Japan than in other places. 解析:由文章的最后一段可看出。 答案:D F Some individuals and citizen groups have expressed worry about the level of violence in television programs,particularly in action-adventure series and cartoons.They argue that viewers,especially children,may learn to see violence as the only way to settle conflicts. Early experimental researchers compared the play of children who had seen aggressive behavior on television with the play of a control group of children who had watched nonviolent programs.Worry was increased by findings that showed a higher level of aggressive play in the violent-television group.Other researchers attempted to determine whether violent programs simply caused higher energy levels in children or actually caused them to learn violent and antisocial)behavior.The results of different studies conflicted.Some researchers thought that televised violence actually had an active cathartic(引导宣泄)effect,allowing some viewers to release high tensions;these findings,however,were not more clear in further studies.Other scholars pointed out that both prosocial and antisocial behavior can be learned from television.Social scientists find it especially difficult to figure out exactly the subtle,cumulative(积累的)effects of viewing a broad variety of television programs throughout childhood.Telling the possible effects of television from other influences at home and at school is also difficult.Present research suggests that higher levels of antisocial behavior can be traced to television viewing,but further study needs to be done to make it clear or not. Because of the long-standing tradition in the U.S.of freedom of speech and of the press,the government would probably not attempt to directly limit or censor(审查)the appearance of violence on television.Among the networks and producers,pressure from some citizens continues to be balanced by increasing popularity of high-energy action-adventure programs. 61..What is the passage mainly about? A.Violence in television programs. B.Levels of violence in action-adventure series and cartoons. C.Educational programs for children. D.Researches on television programs. 解析:电视节目中的暴力内容对儿童成长的影响一直是美国社会关注的问题。有人认为孩子从电视节目的暴力内容中学会了使用暴力;而有人却认为电视中的暴力内容对孩子有正面影响,有助于他们宣泄紧张的情绪;还有人认为暴力内容对观众,特别是儿童的影响有待于进一步研究。这篇文章讨论了惊险动作片和卡通片中的暴力镜头对儿童的影响问题,以及对这一问题的三种不同观点。参阅上述主题,A项为正确答案。 答案:A 62.Those researchers who believe violence on TV has an active effect on viewers think that______. A.it teaches people not to use violence to settle conflicts B.it causes higher energy levels in children C.it helps let out people’s too strong emotion. D.it helps people too fight various social ugly and ill things before them 解析:第二段倒数第二句介绍了对暴力内容持支持态度的人的观点,即“televised violence actually had a positive cathartic effect,allowing some viewers to release high tensions”。选项中只有 C项表达了这一观点。 答案:C 63.A“prosocial”behavior is one ______. A.that is against the social rules B.that meets the expectation of the society C.that a child shows in communication with people D.that can often be shaped by TV programs 解析:本文第二段指出,prosocial behavior和antisocial behavior是相对的行为方式,而antisocial behavior与 violent有关。由此推断,prosocial behavior 是一种非暴力的、亲社会的行为。B项意为“符合社会期望的行为”,与上述分析一致。A项意为“反对社会准则的行为”;C项意为“孩子与他人交流中表现出的行为”;D项意为“通常由电视节目塑造的行为”。 答案:B 64.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A.Television viewing leads naturally to antisocial behavior. B.Violence on television does not help shape violent behavior in children. C.The effect of the violent TV programs on children needs further study. D.Both prosocial and antisocial behaviors can be learned from violent programs. 解析:A、B、D三项表达的论点在原文的第二、三段都有介绍,但作者认为这些都有待于进一步证实。因此C项为正确答案。 答案:C 65.The last paragraph of the passage implies A.the government will have to ban violence on TV B.violence in television programs will continue to appear in the future C.producers and some citizens can work together to clean up TV programs D.without violence,action-adventure programs would be more popular 解析:最后一句意为“电视网和制片商会在关注此问题的人们与欢迎惊险动作片的观众之间寻找 一种平衡”。由此推断,暴力节目会得到控制,但不可能从电视中消失。B项表达了上述意思。 答案:B 高一版块检测(一)及精析 第一卷 第一部分:听力 第一节 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项,并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后,你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 M:Are you interested in detective stories?

A.A pair of shoes. B.A pair of socks. C.Two pairs of socks. D.A set of books. 解析:由文章第一句可知,作者想买一双短袜,因此选B。 答案:B 36.Which is true according to the passage? A.The shop was on the Second Road.

D.The writer entered the shop by chance. 解析:从文章第一段第七句中accidental可知,作者进入那家商店非常偶然,A、B、C三项显然不对。 答案:D 37.What the writer said in the last paragraph means that ______. A.if you don’t work hard,you will lose the job B.you should keep on following your customs C.if you keep up your great interest in your work,you will succeed in the future D.if you are too hardworking,you will fail 解析:联系上文可知作者对男孩展现出来的做事的激情非常赞赏,认为只要他坚持下去就一定会成功。 答案:C B “Life is speeding up.Everyone is getting unwell.” This may sound like something someone would say today.But in fact,an unknown citizen who lived in Rome in AD 52 wrote it. We all love new inventions.They are exciting,amazing and can even change our lives. But have all these developments really improve the quality of our lives? Picture this:You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer.Your mobile phone rings;a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen;the noise from the television is getting louder and louder.Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work.Now you have to stay up all night to get it done.How calm and happy do you feel? Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired.Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities,who have not telephones,no cars,not even any electricity often seem to be happier?Perhaps because they lead simpler lives. One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today.The grandparents,with their daughter,and grandsons Benjamin,10,and Tomas,7,spent nine weeks in a 1940s house.They had no washing machine,microwave,computer or mobile phones. The grandmother,Lyn,said,“It was hard physically,but not mentally.”She believed life was less materialistic.“The more things you have,the more difficult life becomes,”she said.The boys said they fought less to fight over,such as their computer.Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a“trendy(时髦的),beer-drinking granny,to one who cooked things”. Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions! Don’t be available all the time.Turn off your mobile phone at certain times of the day.Don’t check your e-mail every day. Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can.It may be fun at first,but it soon gets annoying. 38.The passage is mainly about ______. A.problem with technology B.improvements of our life with technology C.the important roles technology plays in our everyday life D.major changes which will be likely to happen to technology 解析:全文通过论点的提出、论据的展开论证了一个问题:现代化的发明给人们的生活所带来的问题。 答案:A 39.The writer quoted(引用) what a citizen in ancient Rome said at the beginning of the story in order to ______. A.share a truth about life B.tell us what life was like long time ago C.make us wonder what causes such a thing to happen D.point out that you experience some big problems and they may be the same 解析:所引用的是公元52年罗马一个公民的话。那时相对于以前生活节奏快,人们的身体受到负面影响,就像现在一样。 答案:A 40.Why did the family choose to spend some time in a 1940’s house?Because ______. A.they liked to live simple lives B.they were curious about how people lived without modern inventions C.they were troubled by modern inventions D.living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them 解析:从“to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today”可知。 答案:B 41.What do you think the underlined word “available” in the first suggestion offered by the writer means? A.Busy on line. B.Free. C.Be able to. D.Be found by others. 解析:available原意是“可会见的,可与之交谈的(free to be seen,talked to)”。在此处通过上下文可知D项正确。关掉手机,不每天检查电子信箱,不回答短信。做这一切的结果是人们找不到你。 答案:D C FIRE INSTRUCTIONS THE PERSON DISCOVERING A FIRE WILL: ※ OPERATE THE NEAREST FIRE ALARM.(This will cause the Alarm Bells to ring and also send a signal to the telephone switchboard operator who will immediately call the Fire Brigade.) ※ ATTACK THE FIRE WITH AVAILABLE(现有的)EQUIPMENT,IF IT IS SAFE TO DO SO.

Another 30% are against the idea of having classes on weekends.They believe students should have a good rest on weekends so that they can study more effectively during the weekdays. The other 40% of the students don’t agree with either of the ideas above.In their opinion,study and rest are both important for students.They suggest one day of the weekend should be used to study and during the other day they have a rest. 高一篇(下) 单项选择实战训练及精析: (第一组) 1.Farmland ______ quickly,so they are considering ______ a programme to solve the problem. A.is getting lost;starting B.is lost;to start C.is losing;starting D.loses;to start 解析:consider作“考虑”解时,只能跟动名词作宾语,不可接动词不定式,排除B、D两项;C项中is losing属语态错误,故排除。全句意思为:耕地在快速减少,因此他们在考虑开展一项活动来解决这个问题。 答案:A 2.—The railway station,please.I have to be there in ten minutes. —______,but I’ll do my best. A.No problem B.OK C.I can’t promise D.I can’t do that 解析:依据“I’ll do my best.”可排除A、B、D三项。 答案:C 3.______was known to all,William had broken his promise ______ he would give us a rise. A.As;which B.As;that C.It;that D.It;which 解析:从句意分析,promise后是同位语从句,因此首先排除A、D两项;如果用it作形式主语,all之后不能用逗号,故选B项。 答案:B 4.We have to finish the job,______. A.long it takes however B.it takes however long C.long however it takes D.however long it takes 解析:本题考查however引导的让步状语从句的语序。however引导让步状语从句时,however及其所修饰的词应放在从句句首。故选D。 答案:D 5.—Excuse me,I want to have my watch fixed,but I can’t find a repair shop. —I know one nearby.______I’ll show you.

A.on;with B.on;on C.on;to D.with;to 解析:本题考查fire短语的意义和用法。on fire意为“着火,燃烧”,强调状态,主语为燃烧物。set fire to...相当于set...on fire,意为“放火烧……”,强调动作,主语为人。常见短语还有catch fire,意为“着火”,强调动作,主语为燃烧物。 答案:C 8.—I’ve got some wonderful news.We have been invited to the palace ball. —Really?______. A.I don’t believe so B.I believe not C.I can’t believe it D.I don’t believe it 解析:当对一件事的发生表示惊奇和难以相信时,可以说:I can’t believe it.(我真不敢相信这是真的。);当对别人的观点表示同意时,常用的答语是:I believe so.(我想会的;我想是的。);如果不同意,可以说:I believe not.或I don’t believe so.(我想不会;我想不是。) 答案:C 9.—I am going to travel to America.Would you consider telling me about your experiences there? —______.Let’s discuss it over dinner. A.That’s all right B.By all means C.Go ahead D.It just depends 解析:本题考查短语的使用。That’s all right.表示“没有关系”,是在别人道歉后的安慰语;by all means意为“可以;当然行;没问题”;go ahead意为“干吧,说吧”;It(just)depends的意思是“这很难说,得看情况”。本句意为“没问题,咱们吃饭的时候谈谈吧”。参见“重点单词2”。 答案:B 10.—Excuse me,are you traveling by train or meeting someone? —We are ______ the three oclock train to Shanghai. A.traveling B.waiting C.taking D.setting 解析:如果“乘坐……”作状语,英语中用“by+单数名词”或“(其他)介词+不定冠词或代词或形容词+名词。如果作谓语,英语中用take。如:(1)We took a taxi home(=We went home by taxi/in a taxi).(2)He went home by bike/on his old bike. 答案:C 11.—Would you like another cup of coffee? —______. A.Yes,I like some B.Yes,I’d like to C.Yes,please D.Yes,thanks 解析:请别人吃或喝点什么,常用“Would you like ...?”。如同意,要说“Yes,please.”或“Just a little,please.”。如不同意,要说“No,thanks.I’ve had enough.”或“I’m full,thank you.”。B项是用来回答“Would you like to do sth.?”的。 答案:C 12.______there is something else to discuss,I’ll declare the meeting closed. A.As B.While C.Since D.Unless 解析:本题考查连词在语境中的应用。as可表原因,意为“由于”,也可表时间,意为“在……的同时”;while可表时间,意为“正当……的期间”,也可表转折,意为“尽管”;since可表时间,意为“自从……以来”,也可表原因,意为“既然,由于”;unless表条件,意为“除非,如果不”。分析语境和语意,根据逻辑可排除A、B、C三个选项。 答案:D 13.If you want to change for a double room,you’ll have to pay ______$15. A.another B.other C.more D.each 解析:本题考查代词的使用知识。表示“再,另”,用another或more。但结构不同:another有两种结构:(1)another+单数名词;(2)another+数词+(表示整体概念)复数名词。more表示这个意思时,必须放在数词之后,构成“数词+more+复数名词”结构。如:five more persons。 答案:A 14.I can guess you were in a hurry.You ______ your sweater inside out. A.had worn B.wore C.are wearing D.were wearing 解析:本题考查动词时态的用法。第二句是判断You were in a hurry.的依据,应该使用与现在有联系的时态,故排除A、B、D三项。全句意思为:“我猜你当时很匆忙,(因为)你现在反穿着羊毛衫。” 答案:C 15.Our educational system must prepare our citizens to be persons who have respect for nature ______ for mankind and persons who want to enrich the world. A.as well as B.such as C.the same as D.as to 解析:全句意思为“我们的教育应该将公民教育成热爱自然、热爱人类、热爱那些为世界富有而工作的人”。根据句意,首先排除B、C两项;as well as意为 “除……之外;也;还”;as to意为“至于;关于”。 答案:A 16.—How much are these bananas ______? —Five yuan. —Oh,it’s not expensive ______. A.at all;at all B.all;in all C.in all;at all D.at all;in all 解析:in all意为“总计、总共”;at all意为:①(用于否定句)全然、完全、根本、丝毫。②(用于疑问句)究竟、到底。③(用于条件状语从句)既然、果真。 答案:C 17.I have never dined with you,sir;and I see no reason ______. A.how can I know B.how I ought to know C.why shall I know D.why I should know 解析:定语从句中应该使用陈述语序,首先排除A、C两项;reason后的定语从句多由why引导,故排除B项。 答案:D 18.Mr Smith ______ the first bus,otherwise he should have arrived here by now. A.should have missed B.must have caught C.must have missed D.might miss 解析:参见“必背句型4”。 答案:C 19.Which do you enjoy ______ your weekends,fishing or watching TV? A.spending B.to spend C.being spent D.spent 解析:本题易受思维定势的影响误选A项,因为enjoy后多接动名词作宾语,可是此句中enjoy的宾语是which,其后不必再使用宾语了,而应该用不定式作状语。 答案:B 20.—What’s the matter with Mary? —She wasn’t invited to the ball,but she still ______. A.hopes so B.hopes that C.hopes to D.hopes it 解析:本题也很容易受思维定势的影响误选A项。根据so的使用规则,当so表示“这样、如此”之意时,可用来替代整个句子或某一情况的全部。可是从句意看,她希望的是受到邀请,而不是She wasn’t invited to the ball,所以本题应选C项。hopes to是hopes to be invited的省略。参见“必背句型3”。 答案:C (第二组) 1.—How about some more coffee? —It’s very kind of you,______. A.I enjoyed it very much B.That’s all right C.It tastes nice and sweet D.Just a little,please 解析:如果选用A项或C项,问句应改成How do you like the coffee?(你认为咖啡怎么样?);That’s all right.表示“没有关系”,是在别人道歉后的安慰语。 答案:D 2.More natural resources should be made use of ______ the ______ need of energy. A.meeting;increasing B.to meet;increased C.meeting;increased D.to meet;increasing 解析: 此题不要受of的影响选用v.-ing形式,实际上后半部分是动词不定式作目的状语。 答案:D 3.A warning news report from Qatar announces that a group of Islam will continue to kill Americans wherever they are ______ they leave the Arab world forever. A.even though B.in case C.whenever D.until 答案:D 4.If this dictionary is not yours,______ can it be? A.what else B.who else C.which else’s D.who else’s 解析:else可置于由some,any,no开头的不定代词及who,what,how,where等疑问词后,但不与which,when,why连用。因此首先排除C项。与前文yours相对应,该空应用所有格,故选D。who else’s相当于whose else。 答案:D 5.—Which of those electronic dictionaries do you like most? —______.They are both expensive and of little use. A.None B.Neither C.All D.Both 解析:此题考查不定代词的用法,不定代词是高考的热点内容。考查重点在:all,any,none,both,either,neither,another,other等。all,any,none,another 用于表示“三者”或“三者以上”。both,either,neither,other用于表示“两者”。做题时还要从搭配、意义等方面加以区别。本题的关键是确定不定代词表达的数量,后文的both很容易误导学生。依据前文those确定是表示三者以上;依据后文的意思确定用否定。故选A。 答案:A 6.The artist ______ the headmaster gave a prize is the teacher ______ I have been taught for two years. A.from whom;by whom B.to whom;who C.from whom;who D.to whom;by whom 解析:依据give a prize to sb.,排除A、C两项,依据被动语态中by后接动作的实施者的规则,排除B项。 答案:D 7.His novel is a great success and it is well ______. A.received B.accepted C.picked D.popular 解析: 前文说小说很成功,那么它一定受人欢迎。选项中receive和popular都能表达这个意思,但是popular是形容词,它不能被well修饰。故选A。 答案:A 8.With the opening of China,more and more English programs are broadcast ______. A.in the air B.by air C.in the open air D.on the air 解析:本题考查在语境中使用短语的能力。in the air意为“在空中,未确定的;悬而未决的;流传的”; by air意为“乘飞机;通过航空途径”; in the open air意为“在户外”; on the air意为“正在播出的”。从语意看,D为最佳答案。 答案:D 9.When first ______ the market,these products enjoyed great success. A.introducing B.introduced C.introduce D.being introduced 解析:本题考查非谓语动词的用法。products与introduce是被动关系,故选B。when引导的时间状语从句是一个省略句,补全为“When they were first introduced to the market,...”。全句意思为:“这些产品一投放市场,就获得了成功。” 答案:B 10.—How long has Mary ______ Johnson? —I don’t know.I even don’t know that they had ______. A.been married with;married B.married with;married C.married to;married D.been married to;got married 答案:D 11.Mr Zhang gave all the textbooks to all the pupils,except ______ who had already taken them. A.these B.ones C.the ones D.the others 解析:参见“疑难突破6”。 答案:C 12.In order not to be disturbed,I spent three days ______ in my study. A.locking B.locked C.to lock D.lock 解析:本题A项干扰性较强,有的学生受思维定势的影响,看到locking,就不假思索地选A项。解本题时,应仔细分析其语境和结构,细心揣摩句意。 sb.spend time(in)doing中的sb.是doing的逻辑主语。如:He spent three years writing the book.=He wrote the book in three years’ time. 从结构和句意看,本题中的主语I和lock不是主动关系,而是被动关系,故选B项。如果在in之前加反身代词myself,本题就选A项。 答案:B 13.Tian Dong,together with his classmates,______ because of ______ the school rule. A.was punished,obeying B.were punished;breaking C.were punished;obeying D.was punished;breaking 解析:从句意看,首先排除A、C两项。因为遵守学校的规章制度是不应该受到惩罚的。together with his classmates 是状语,主语为Tian Dong,谓语动词应用单数形式,故选D。 答案:D 14.______ is the top player in this football team? A.Who do you think B.Do you think whom C.Whom do you think D.Do you think whose else 答案:A 15.When they meet with some difficult problems,they usually ______. A.ask me advice B.ask for my advice C.ask me for advice D.ask advice from me 解析:本题考查动词短语意义。ask for sb./sth.意为“要求得到……,要求见到……”;ask sb.for sth.意为“向某人要……”;ask sb.sth.指“问某人某事”。 答案:C 16.—Why haven’t you bought any butter? —I______ to but I forgot about it. A.liked B.wished C.meant D.expected 解析:本题考查根据语境和句意使用动词的能力。答语中to后省略了buy,依据but判断答语两句为转折关系,所以后文说“忘了”,前文一定是说“打算买”。能表达此意的只有C项,mean to do意为“有……的意图;打算”。 答案:C 17.He came ______ where I was hiding and my heart beat faster. A.more closely to B.much closer C.rather closer to D.quite closely to 解析:close和closely都可用作副词,但意思不一样。close意为“靠近,接近”,常与介词to连用;closely表示抽象意义,意为“密切地,仔细地”。根据句意排除A、D项,close to为固定短语,故选C。 答案:C 18.Seeing the happy ______ of children playing in the park,I’m full of joy and confidence in the future of our country. A.sight B.view C.sign D.scene 解析:本题考查在语境中使用单词的能力。sight意为“视野;景象;奇观”;view意为“眼界;风景;风光;景色”;sign意为“符号;记号;迹象;招牌”;scene意为“场面;情景”。根据句意,选D项。 答案:D 19.He is afraid ______ English in public because he is afraid ______ fun of. A.to speak;to be made B.to speak;of being made C.of speaking;of being made D.of speaking;to be made 解析:全句意思为:“由于担心被嘲笑,他不敢在公共场合说英语。” be afraid of+名词、代词或doing sth.担心、害怕;be afraid to do sth.不敢做某事;因此最佳答案为B。 答案:B 20.—Don’t be disappointed.Have another try,OK? —______. A.With pleasure B.It’s my pleasure C.No problem D.Good idea 解析:本题考查习惯用语,解题时应明确各习惯用语的意思及使用场合:当别人请你帮忙,你乐意做时,你可以说With pleasure.,意为“十分愿意”;当你因帮助他人受到对方感谢时,你可以说“My pleasure.”或“It’s a pleasure.”或“A pleasure.”;根据语境,排除A、B两项。D项结构错误,故选C。 答案:C (第三组) 1.She was so angry that she ______ all the letters that he wrote to her. A.burned up B.received C.opened D.read 解析:从语法上讲,四个选项都正确。但是依据“She was so angry”来判断,只有A项符合句意。 答案:A 2.This habit is hard to form ______,but in the long run,it will do you good. A.in future B.at present C.in present D.at the present 解析: in the long run意思是“终究”。如:Honesty will pay in the long run.(诚实终究会得到报偿。) A项不能与后半句形成比较,故排除。全句意思是:“这种习惯目前不容易形成,但是它终究对你会有好处。” 答案:B 3.Zhang Hong is said ______ by heart 2000 words up to now. A.that she has learned B.to have learned C.to learn D.having learned 解析:如果选A项,应该用形式主语it;从句意看,应该用动词不定式的完成式,故选B。 答案:B 4.—Hi,Mary,what are you doing these days? —I am ______ the examination.

A.the;the B./;a C./;the D.the;a 解析:本题看似考查冠词,实际上考查固定搭配。by weight意为“按(论)重量”; by the dozen意为“论打”。 答案:C 6.—How can a simple meal like this cost so much? —We have ______ in your bill the cost of the teapot you broke just. A.increased B.included C.obtained D.charged 解析:increase“增长,增加,加强”include“包括”;obtain“得到,获得,买到”;charge“收费,索价”。根据语境和句意,首先排除A、C两项;charge作“收费”“索价”解常用以下句式:(1)charge sb.for(doing)sth.;(2) charge money for(doing)sth.;(3)charge sb.money for(doing)sth.,本句的宾语是cost,故排除D项。 答案:B 7.Even on a cold day he prefers ______ out to play football ______at home. A.going;rather stay B.going;to staying C.to go;rather than staying D.to do;rather than to stay 解析: prefer表示“宁愿……不愿”的意思时有两种结构:(1)prefer(+动名词或名词)to(动名词或名词)。(2)prefer(+带to的不定式)rather than(+不带to的不定式)。 答案:B 8.In our ______,anyone ______ breaks the law should be punished. A.opinions;that B.opinions;who C.opinion;he D.opinion;who 解析: in one’s opinion 是固定用法,意思是“在某人看来,依照某人的看法”,该短语中,opinion 必须用单数形式。 答案:D 9.—What a lovely sight! —______ there was nothing but sand here. A.In the past few years B.In past C.During the past D.In the past 解析: in the past few years意为“在过去几年里”,应与现在完成时连用。“在过去”应译为“in the past”,其中的the不可省略,in 不可换成其他介词。比较:in(the)future在将来;at present在现在,目前。 答案:D 10.You should give the watch to Li Li.This watch is ______ she lost yesterday. A.the same like B.the same that C.same as D.the same as 解析: the same as/the same...as意为“和……一样”,其中的the 不可省略,as不能换成like或with。the same that 表示“同一的”。例如: This is the same pen as he bought. 这枝钢笔跟他买的那枝一样。 This is the same pen that he bought. 这就是他买的那枝钢笔。 答案:B 11.The Training Center ______ the children of this area ______ last year. A.is opened to;set up B.is opened to;was set up C.opened to;set up D.open to;was set up 解析: 解题的关键是要理清结构。主干为the Training Center,set up。从主谓关系看,应用被动语态,排除A、C两项。第一空应为定语,如用B项,center后应用关系代词,故排除B。D项中open为形容词,open to意为“向……开放”,如:The swimming pool is open to the public. 答案:D 12.______ I can see,there is only one possible way to keep away from the danger. A.As long as B.Just as C.As far as D.Even if 解析:全句意思为:在我看来,可能只有一种避开危险的方法。 答案:C 13.The money collected from ticket sales could be ______ food and clothes for the people in the flooded areas. A.cost B.paid off C.spent on D.paid back 解析: cost不能用于被动式;pay back意为“偿还”,pay off意为“付清(债务)”,它们都与句意不符;spend...on意为“用在……上”,与句意一致,故选C。 答案:C 14.I remember his telephone number is 8666888,but you’d better ______. A.be sure B.make sure C.find out D.look out 解析: 根据语境排除C、D两项,因为前文已说出了电话号码,不需要去查找。be sure意为“对……有把握”;make sure意为“一定要,保证做到,核实,弄清楚”。从句意看,说话者只是要求对方去核实,故选B。 答案:B 15.I argued with him for more than half an hour,but had to ______ in the end. A.give out B.give off C.give up D.win 解析:全句意思为:我同他辩论了半个多小时,但最后不得不认输。 答案:C 16.______ what you said,he got very angry. A.BecauseB. Because of C.Since D.For 答案:B 17.—How do you think he managed to improve his English in such a short time? —______ four hours on it every day. A.Because of spending B.To spend C.By spending D.Spending 解析:受汉语思维的影响,本题很容易误选A项。答语应该是针对问句中的特殊疑问词how,故选C项。完整句子为:He managed to improve his English in such a short time by spending four hours on it every day.若选A项,问句应改为:Why do you think he managed to improve ...? 答案:C 18.She watches TV ______ evening and changes channels______ few minutes. A.in;every B.every;every C.every;each D.every;in 解析:“every+单数名词”是“每个……”之意;“every+ few(two,three...) +复数名词”是“每(隔)几(两、三……)”之意。 答案:B 19.They don’t allow ______ here.That is to say,we are not allowed ______ here. A.to smoke;to smoke B.smoking;smoking C.to smoke;smoking D.smoking;to smoke 解析:allow后接动名词作宾语;接动词不定式作宾语补足语。故选D。 答案:D 20.Our team was ahead during the first half,but we ______ in the last ten minutes. A.were won B.were lost C.were beaten D.won 解析:若选B项,应改为主动语态;若选D项,就出现了逻辑错误。因此最佳答案为C。全句意思是:前半场我们领先,但是在最后10分钟我们被打败了。 答案:C (第四组) 1.I’m sure you can ______ a lot of money doing this job and you can ______ a living with the money. A.have;make B.make;make C.make;get D.get;make 解析:make money“挣钱”和make a living“谋生”均为固定搭配。 答案:B 2.—How did you find him out? —I ______ his name by chance on the list. A.came down B.came about C.came up D.came across 解析: come across意为“偶然遇到;碰巧遇见”。 答案:D 3.There ______ many people ______ in the office,but now nobody is allowed to. A.used to be;smoking B.used to have;smoking C.used to be;smoke D.used to have;smoke 解析: “过去曾经有……”用“There used to be...”表示;“有人干某事”用“There be someone doing sth.”表示。故选A。 答案:A 4.(2005年北京模拟题)Jack had traveled six miles across the Channel ______ his engine failed and was forced to land on the sea.

A.to take B.take C.taking D.to be taking 解析: 本题考查How/What about...?的用法。本句中的the two of us是动名词的逻辑主语。 答案:C 6.—What about having a drink? —______. A.Good idea B.Help yourself C.Go ahead,please D.Me,too 解析:本题考查根据语境选用交际用语的能力。What about having a drink?在形式上是问句,实际上是建议双方喝一杯。而B、C两项只是让对方自己喝;D项的意思是“我也喝”。都与语境不符。故选A。 答案:A 7. —Have you decided ______ for Mary’s birthday? —Not yet,I have nothing ______. A.what to buy;in mind B.what to be bought;in mind C.what to buy;in my mind D.what to be bought;in my mind 解析:you与buy之间存在主动关系,应该用动词不定式的主动式。故排除B、D两项。have sb./sth. in mind(for sth.)是固定短语,意思为“心中有适当的人选(或想做的事)”。例如:Do you have anyone in mind for this job?你有没有想到什么人可以做这项工作? 答案:A 8.The Turners consider ______ a computer,which is commonly considered ______ a great help in our work and study. A.to buy;to be B.buying;to be C.to buy;being D.buying;being 解析:consider作“考虑;细想”解时,后接名词、v.-ing形式或宾语从句。作“当作;当成;认为”解时,后接含有as的介词短语或to be复合宾语。 答案:B 9.The happy look on his face suggested that he ______the final examination successfully.

A.lives B.live C.lived D.are living 解析:由于together with his friends是状语,主语是Pat,因此排除B、D两项;根据后一句判断,应该用一般现在时,故选A。 答案:A 18.—I’d like to get Xiao Li ______ the report. —Don’t trouble her.She has no time ______ it. A.to type;to finish B.type;finishing C.type;to finish D.type;finish 解析:get sb.to do sth.=have sb.do sth.或get sb.doing sth.“使某人做某事”;to finish作宾语补足语,故选A。 答案:A 19.Is that country ______ we’re going to send these machines? A.where B.the one C.the one that D.the one where 解析:解题时可以首先将题干转换成陈述句:That country is ______ we’re going to send these machines.不难看出,主句中缺表语,故排除A项;如果选B项或C项,定语从句中应加介词to;因此最佳答案为D项。 答案:D 20. I shall never forget those years ______ I lived in the country with farmers,______ has a great effect on my life. A.that;which B.when;which C.which;that D.when;who 解析:when在定语从句中作时间状语,which引导的是非限制性定语从句。 答案:B (第五组) 1.The poor driver telephoned the police and ______what had happened. A.told B.talked C.expressed D.explained 解析:该题考查动词搭配,tell sb.+宾语从句,talk是不及物动词,不能直接加宾语从句。explain作“解释”讲,是最佳答案。 答案:D 2.I was dismissed.Only then did I ______that I had either forgotten or completely ignored my own black skin. A.realize B.regard C.recognize D.admit 解析:本句话的意思为:“我被解雇了,只有那时我才意识到我忘记了或者完全忽视了我黑色的皮肤。” 答案:A 3. —______ he have been chosen as captain of the football team? —Yes,he ______. A.Can;must have B.Must;must have C.Can;must D.Must;must 解析:本题考查情态动词表示推测的用法。表示推测时,must不能用于疑问和否定。另外根据第一句话的时态判断,此处应该使用must have done结构,表示对过去情况的推测。 答案:A 4.The poem is hard to understand.Can you make ______ of it? A.idea B.knowledge C.sense D.understanding 解析: make sense of=understand,“理解” 的意思。 答案:C 5.How much are you going to ______ me for repairing this bike?

A.turning up B.taking up C.breaking up D.picking up 解析:本题考查短语动词的辨析。短语pick up在此表示“健康,景气,事态的恢复或好转”。 答案:D 7.Since there was a rapid increase in his business,his efforts ______. A.paid in B.paid off C.paid back D.paid for 解析:短语pay off在此的意思为“bring good result;be successful(带来好结果;成功)”。 答案:B 8.—The police think your brother John stole the diamond in the museum yesterday evening. —Oh?But he stayed with me at home the whole evening;he ______ the museum. A.must have been to B.needn’t have been to C.should have been to D.couldn’t have been to 解析:本题考查情态动词的用法。根据语境要求,此处应该是用否定形式,而needn’t have done的意思为“过去不必做某事”,这和句子的意思不相符合。 答案:D 9.Can you make a sentence to ______ the meaning of the phrase? A.show off B.turn out C.bring out D.take in 解析:本题考查根据语意选择动词短语的能力。bring out 拿出,说明,阐明,引出;show off 表现自己,炫耀;turn out结果,原来(情况是),生产,制造;take in吸收,听进去,领会。依据前文make a sentence 和后文the meaning of the phrase不难判断出正确答案。 答案:C 10.You______ get the book on condition that you give it back to me in time. A.should B.must C.ought to D.shall 解析:本题考查情态动词的用法区别。情态动词shall用于第二人称时,表示说话人的意志或意愿的将来时。重读时表示义务或强制,不重读时,表示允诺或威胁。此句话表示“允诺得到书”的条件。 答案:D 11.—Why is Tom always late for school? —He has no ______ of time. A.sense B.idea C.hurry D.need 解析:have no sense of sth.意思为“没有……的意识”;have no idea of意为“不知道”。 答案:A 12.—Daddy,would you buy me an MP3 player if I do well in the first city-wide examination? —I ______,I promise.

He and six other migrant workers from Fujian Province spent 36 hours in Iraq as international hostages(人质).But luckily,they were set free last Tuesday morning,unharmed by the people who had taken them hostage. After hard work by Chinese diplomats(外交官)in the region the Iraqi kidnappers(绑架者)agreed to hand them over to a local religious group.“The friendly relations between the Chinese and Iraqi peoples have played a key role in the release of the hostages,”said Foreign Ministry spokesman Kong Quan.China refused to join the US-led coalition(联军)in the Iraq war.

The Iraqi resistance groups have started taking foreigners hostage in an attempt to force the US-led troops out of their country.As a result,many foreigners have left,fearing the situation will get worse.Some nations are also considering removing their troops from Iraq.Thailand has ordered its forces not to leave their camp and may bring them home before September as originally planned.New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark is considering similar action. But Dan Senor,spokesman for the US-led coalition in Baghdad,said that it would not negotiate(谈判)with“terrorists or kidnappers”to get hostages released. 45.The seven workers from Fujian were set free mainly because ______. A.they were too poor to pay anything B.kidnappers didn’t know they were Chinese C.China didn’t take sides with the US-led coalition D.kidnappers were friendly to the Chinese 解析:根据文章第三段后半部分,特别是“China refused to join the US-led coalition in the Iraq war.”一句可判断答案为C。 答案:C 46.Why did the Iraqi resistance groups start to take foreigners hostage?

Animation means making things which are lifeless come alive and move. Since earliest times,people have always been astonished by movement.But not until last century have we managed to take control of movement,to record it,and in the case of animation,to retranslate it and recreate it.To do all this,we use a movie camera and a projector(放映机). In the world of cartoon animation,nothing is impossible.You can make the characters do exactly what you want them to do. A famous early cartoon character was Felix the Cat,created by Pat Sullivan in America in the early nineteen twenties.Felix was a wonderful cat.He could do all sorts of things no natural cat could do like taking off his tail,using it as a handle and then putting it back. Most of the great early animators lived and worked in America,the home of the moving picture industry. But to be an animator,you don’t have to be a professional(专业人士).It is possible for anyone to make a simple animated film without using a camera at all.All you have to do is to draw directly on to an empty film and then run the film through a projector. 49.What does the passage mainly discuss? A.Animal world. B.Movie camera. C.Cartoon making. D.Movement. 答案:C 50.Which of the following statements is TRUE? A.People were unable to cause the movement to last or record it in the 19th century. B.Pat Sullivan was a famous early cartoon character. C.It is impossible to make cartoon characters do what they are designed to do.

Effective listening is more than simply avoiding the bad habit of interrupting others while they are speaking or finishing their sentences.It’s being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting impatiently for your chance to respond.In some ways,the way we fail to listen is symbolic of the way we live.We often treat communication as if it were a race.It’s almost like our goal is to have no gaps between the conclusion of the sentence of the person we are speaking with and the beginning of our own.My wife and I were recently at a cafe having lunch,overhearing the conversations around us.It seemed that no one was really listening to one another;instead they were taking turns not listening to one another.I asked my wife if I still did the same thing.With a smile on her face she said,“only sometimes”. Slowing down your responses and becoming a better listener aids you in becoming a more peaceful person.It takes pressure from you.If you think about it,you’ll notice that it takes an extremely large amount of energy and is very stressful to be sitting at the edge of your seat trying to guess what the person in front of you(or on the telephone)is going to say so that you can fire back your response.But as you wait for the person you are communicating with to finish,as you simply listen more carefully to what is being said,you’ll notice that the pressure you feel is off.You will immediately feel more relaxed,and so will the people you are talking to.They will feel safe in slowing down their own responses because they won’t feel in competition with you for “air time”!Not only will becoming a better listener make you a more patient person,it will also add to the quality of your relationships.Everyone loves to talk to someone who truly listens to what they are saying. 54.According to the passage,an effective listener should______. A.accept the speaker’s thought critically B.respond to the speaker’s words slowly C.wait for the chance to respond patiently D.reply the speaker’s question patiently 解析:根据短文第二段内容,特别是“It’s being content to listen to the entire thought of someone rather than waiting impatiently for your chance to respond.”一句可以确定答案为C。 答案:C 55.My wife’s words means that sometimes I ______. A.overhear other people’s conversations B.may enter a cafe for having lunch C.await patiently my chance to respond D.do not really listen to other’s statement 解析:根据“It seemed that no one was really listening to one another;instead they were taking turns not listening to one another.I asked my wife if I still did the same thing.”可以确定答案。 答案:D 56.When talking with others,you will feel relaxed by ______. A.sitting at the edge of the seat B.slowing down your responses C.guessing the speaker’s thought D.responding to the speaker quickly 解析:根据第三段第一句以及“But as you wait for the person you are communicating with to finish,as you simply listen more carefully to what is being said,you’ll notice that the pressure you feel is off.”可以判定答案为B。 答案:B 57.From the passage,we can NOT infer that ______. A.the author was not an effective listener in the past B.a person who only wants to respond is not welcome C.the author’s wife must always be an effective listener D.both sides in a talk can benefit from effective listening 解析:通读全文得知只有C项没有提到。 答案:C E In 1993,the Metropolitan Museum of Art reluctantly(不情愿地)handed over 363 pieces of gold,silver,precious stones,paintings,and sculptures back to Turkey after a court case.Following increasing calls for the return of artistic objects that were removed decades or centuries ago,some of the world’s leading museums have signed a declaration that they will not hand back the ancient artifacts to their countries of origin.They say people all over the world have only been able to fully appreciate ancient civilizations because these museums have provided access to these artistic objects.The ancient civilizations would not be so deeply admired today if these ancient artifacts were not so widely available to an international public in major museums throughout Europe and America.For example,Egyptian culture would not have become so well-known if the museums had not put Egyptian mummies on show. The British Museum has not signed the declaration,but says it fully supports it.Over the recent years,it has faced growing pressure to hand back the Elgin Marbles(埃尔金大理石雕),sculptures(雕像)taken from the Parthenon(帕台农神庙)in Athens,Greece,in the 19th century.But the British Museum has said that the Museum is the best possible place for them.“They must remain here if the museum is to continue to achieve its aim,which is to show the world to the world,”said the director of the museum. 58.What reason do the major museums provide for not handing back the ancient objects? A.Only in the leading museums can the objects be fully appreciated by the world. B.It is better for those objects to remain at a certain place than to be moved around. C.They need those well-known ancient objects to attract people from all over the world. D.Ancient civilizations can only be admired if they are removed from their home countries. 解析:根据短文第一段后半部分,尤其“They say people all over the world have only been able to fully appreciate ancient civilizations because these museums have provided access to these artistic objects.”一句可以确定此题的答案。 答案:A 59.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the“countries of origin”in the article? A.Turkey. B.Britain. C.Egypt. D.Greece. 解析:通读全文可以知道第一段提到了Turkey和Egypt,第二段提到了Greece,由此确定只有英国没有在文物来源国之列。 答案:B 60.What does“the world”mean in“show the world to the world”? A.The global village. B.The leading museums. C.The ancient civilizations. D.The international public. 解析:根据对第一段中“The ancient civilizations would not be so deeply admired today if these ancient artifacts were not so widely available to an international public in major museums throughout Europe and America.”一部分和第二段“They must remain here if the museum is to continue to achieve its aim”一句的理解,不难确定此句的意思是:把古代文明给世人看。 答案:C F Larry Bird was born in 1965 in a small town in the middle western State of Indiana.He was tall,and always good at playing basketball.He attended Indiana State University.Bird led the team into the College Basketball Championship Game.

The engine—about the size of a ten-cent coin—starts with a combustion chamber(燃烧室) that burns hydrogen(氢).Its tiny parts are etched onto silicon wafers(硅片)in the same manner that computer parts are imprinted onto integrated circuits(集成电路).The first engine is made up of five wafers.And since these wafers could be produced in much the same way as computer chips,they could probably be produced quite cheaply. But the devil in all this nice detail is efficiency(效率).Tiny engine parts don’t always behave like their scaled-up parts of the first engine.Something between the parts can slow down the works,according to Columbia University professor Luc Frechette,one of the engine’s designers.Extreme heat from the combustion chamber is also a problem,often leaking to other parts of the engine. The scientists’ goal is to create an engine that will operate at 10 percent efficiency—that is,10 times better than batteries operate.Frechette says that a complete system,with all parts of place and working,will be set up in the next couple of years,but commercial models aren’t like until at least the end of the next ten years. 73.According to the passage,the title suggests that ______. A.batteries should be greatly improved B.petrol will be used instead of batteries C.the time of batteries will be gone forever D.pollution caused by batteries must be solved 解析:对于任何物品而言,没有任何使用价值而退出历史舞台是最糟糕的事情了,是一场噩梦。 答案:C 74.What’s the meaning of the underlined word“devil”in Paragraph 3? A.Problem. B.Advantage. C.Invention. D.Technique. 解析:devil的本意是“恶魔”,存在于美好事物中的恶魔也就是“问题了”。 答案:A 75.What can we infer from the passage? A.The new invention doesn’t need any fuel. B.The new engine has been produced in quantity. C.The new invention is much cheaper than the battery. D.The new engine needs to be improved before it’s on sale 解析:第三段中谈到了这种新机器的种种不足之处;最后一段的最后一行谈到了最少需要10年这种机器才能上市。 答案:D 76.What is the main purpose of this passage? A.To introduce a new invention to readers. B.To persuade readers not to use batteries. C.To show us how the new invention works. D.To declare when the engine will be on sale. 解析:整篇文章都在拿这种新发明和电池进行比较,说明新发现的好处和需改进之处。 答案:A J Besides this question of the time given to pronunciation,there are two other requirements for the teacher:the first,knowledge;the second,technique. It is important that the teacher should be in possession of the necessary information.This can generally be got from books.It is possible to get from books some idea of the speech,and of what we call general phonetic rules.It is also possible in this way to get a clear mental picture of the relationship between the sounds of different languages,between the speech habits of English people and those,say,of your students.Unless the teacher has such a picture,explanations he makes on his students’ pronunciation are unlikely to be of much use,and lesson time spent on pronunciation may well be wasted. But it does not follow that you can teach pronunciation successfully as soon as you have read the necessary books.It depends,after that,what use you make of your knowledge;and this is a matter of technique. Now the first and most important part of a language teacher’s technique is his own performance,his ability to show off the spoken language,in every detail of sound as well as in fluent speaking,so that the student’s ability for imitation(模仿)is given the fullest space and encouragement.The teacher,then,should be as perfect a model in this field as he can make himself.And to make his own performance better,however satisfactory this may be,the modern teacher has in his hand recordings and a radio,to supply the real voices of native speakers,or,if the teacher happens to be a native speaker himself,or speaks just like one,then to change the method of presenting the language material. However,the process of showing pronunciation,whether by personal example or with the help of machines,is only the beginning of teaching pronunciation.The technique of teaching each sound also needs to be considered. 77.How might the teacher find himself wasting lesson time? A.By spending lesson time on pronunciation. B.By making ill-informed explanations upon pronunciation. C.By not using books on phonetics in the classroom. D.By not giving students a clear mental picture of the difference between sounds. 解析:仔细阅读文章第二段,特别是最后一句,可选出正确答案B。 答案:B 78.Students have ability for imitation which is ______. A.plain and obvious B.well developed C.not yet developed D.too weak to be useful 解析:由文章第四段第一句“so that the student’s ability for imitation is given the fullest space and encouragement”可知,正确答案为C。 答案:C 79.What is the main point the author makes about imitation of the teacher? A.It is a matter of secondary importance. B.Students should be given every chance for it. C.It depends on the student’s ability. D.Teachers are perfect models for students to imitate. 解析:作者提到老师的模仿意在说明给学生机会练习发音。 答案:B 80.To someone teaching his own language to foreigners,mechanical aids(技术手段)can______. A.improve his own performance B.replace his own performance C.provide examples of native speech D.make his voice louder 解析:由第四段最后一句话可知。 答案:C 81.Showing pronunciation is to be regarded as ______. A.a part of teaching pronunciation B.an exercise of value in itself C.an example of the use of mechanical aids D.a technique for teaching separate sounds 解析:由文章最后一段首句可知A项正确。 答案:A 高一版块检测(二)及精析 第一卷 第一部分:听力 第一节 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项,并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后,你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 W:Oh,what pretty flowers!Thank you!

It is unusual now for father to pursue his trade or other employment at home,and his children rarely,if ever,see him at his place of work.Boys are therefore seldom trained to follow their father’s occupation,and in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls.The young wage-earner often earns good money,and soon acquires a feeling of economic independence.In textile areas it has long been customary for mothers to go out to work,but this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now a not unusual factor in a child’s home life,the number of married women in employment having more than doubled in the last twenty-five years.With mother earning and his older children drawing substantial wages father is seldom the dominant figure that he still was at the beginning of the century.When mother works,economic advantages accrue,but children lose something of great value if mother’s employment prevents her from being home to greet them when they return from school. 33.The writer mentions home as workshop because______. A.fathers often pursue employment at home B.parents had to make food and necessity themselves for their daily-life C.many families produce goods at home for sale D.both fathers and mothers and mothers in most families are workers 解析:从第一段可知。 答案:B 34.The writer says that home has become much less of a workshop.He means______. A.in the past,home was more like a workshop B.home is much more of a workshop now C.home-workshops are becoming fewer and fewer D.home was less like a workshop in the past 解析:从第一句“Parents have to do much less for their children today than they used to do,and home become much less of a workshop.”和下文所述可知,过去日常生活所需大部分都由自己做,“家”就如a workshop一样。 答案:A 35.The word“accrue”in the sentence“When mother...accrue,”is closest in meaning to______. A.change B.dwindle C.double D.increase 解析:从“When mother works,economic advantages accure.”可判断出。 答案:D 36.The chief reason that boys are seldom trained to follow their father’s occupation is______. A.that children nowadays rarely see their fathers at their place of work B.that fathers do not like to pursue employment at home any more C.that there is a wide choice of employment for children D.that children also like to have jobs outside 解析:由“...in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls.The young wage-earner often earns good money...”可知答案。 答案:C 37.What makes father no longer the only dominant person in a family? A.With their earning,mother and children do not need to depend on father for their life. B.There are many choice of employment for mothers and children. C.Father does much less for his children today than he used to. D.The number of married women in employment has increased greatly now. 解析:见第二段“With mother earning and his older children drawing substantial wages father is seldom the dominant figure that he still was at the beginning of the century.”。 答案:A B The use of the word imitation(模仿) reminds me that we ought to make some more comments on the risk of people imitating what they see on the screen in the way of crime(犯罪) or violence.First there was always a risk of children acting out scenes which could be dangerous.For example,I remember a woman who was head of a middle school telling me that she had happened to look out of her window when the children were on the playground and had seen them putting a small boy on a chair with a rope round his neck and the rope over the branch of a tree;fortunately she was in time to get there before the child was hanged.I remember a film in particular in which the hero who was imprisoned had escaped by electrocuting(通电触死) his guard,the technique of doing this being shown in detail.This was the kind of scene which we could cut for these reasons. In films for young people and adults we always tried to keep off the screen the details of criminal techniques,such as how to open a locked door with a piece of hard plastic or how to open a safe;if we were consulted(请教) before production,I used to advise that the details should not be shown.When I gave talks in prisons about film checking I had full support for this,since fathers who were in prison for criminal offences did not want their children to get on crime. Every time I gave a talk in a prison someone used to mention the French film Rififi. made by Jules Dassin in 1954.This remarkable film showed in great detail a robbery of a jeweller’s shop,the robbery lasting about half an hour and being backed by only natural sound...one of the most brilliant film sequences(连续镜头) of all time.I remember our discussion at the time.We thought that the robbery was finished only with the use of advanced and obviously expensive equipment and that only the most experienced and skilled criminals could possibly imitate it;we believed therefore that it was relatively safe.When talking in prisons some years later I learned that there had been several robberies in which the techniques had been copied,so perhaps we were wrong. 38.The writer thinks that______. A.the details of the criminal technique should be kept B.the details of the crime should not be shown on the screen C.children should not imitate what they see on the screen D.it is dangerous to imitate what they see on the screen 解析:主旨考查。作者通过模仿的诸多事例表明犯罪细节不能在荧幕播放的观点。C、D两项虽有一定道理,皆为B项服务。 答案:B 39.What is the writer’s attitude(态度) towards the film in which the hero had escaped by electrocuting the guard? A.The writer likes it very much. B.The writer is strongly against it. C.The writer thinks the film has some value. D.The writer does not show his/her attitude. 解析:从行文看作者一直反对在影视作品中描述犯罪细节,以免对孩子产生不良影响。 答案:B 40.Parents in prison agreed to film checking because______. A.they did not want their children to follow them B.the crime on screen could be imitated without difficulty C.they had given a talk on it D.they had made mistakes 解析:从短文最后可得知。 答案:A 41.All the following statements about“Rififi”are true EXCEPT______. A.that the robbery shown needs experience and skills B.that some very good tools were used in the robbery C.that the film showed the technique in detail D.that the technique of the robbery was not imitated 解析:A、B、C三项在最后一段中均有说明。 答案:D 42.It can be inferred from the passage that______. A.it is hard for children to tell the differences between real life and the imaginary B.only people in prison support film checking C.only children imitate what they have seen on the screen D.the writer used to advise the details of crime should be shown 解析:B、C两项均不符合文意,D项与作者观点相违背,故选A。 答案:A C After too long on the Net,even a phone call can be a shock.My boyfriend’s Liverpudlian accent suddenly becomes too difficult to understand after his clear words on screen;a secretary stone seems more rejecting than I’d imagined it would be.Time itself becomes fluid—hours become minutes,and alternately seconds stretch into days.Weekends,once a highlight of my week,are now just two ordinary days. For the last three years,since I stopped working as a producer for Charlie Rose,I have done much of my work as a telecommuter.I submit(提交) articles and edit them by E-mail and communicate with colleagues on Internet mailing lists.My boyfriend lives in England,so much of our relationship is computer-mediated. If I desired,I could stay inside for weeks without wanting anything.I can order food,and manage my money,love and work.In fact,at times I have spent as long as three weeks alone at home,going out only to get mail and buy newspapers and groceries.I watched most of the blizzard of 96 on TV. But after a while,life itself begins to feel unreal I start to feel as though I’ve merged(融合) with my machines,taking data in,spitting them back out,just another node(波节) on the Net.Others on line report the same symptoms.We start to strongly dislike the outside forms of socializing.It’s like attending an A.A.meeting in a bar with everyone holding a half sipped drink.We have become the Net opponents worst nightmare. What first seemed like a luxury,crawling from bed to computer,not worrying about hair,and clothes and face,has become avoidance(逃避),a lack of discipline.And once you start replacing real human contact with cyber interaction, coming back out of the cave can be quite difficult. At times,I turn on the television and just leave it to chatter in the background,something that I’d never done previously.The voices of the programs relax me,but then I’m jarred by the commercials.I find myself sucked in by soap operas,or needing to keep up with the latest news and the weather.“Dateline,” “Frontline,” “Nightline,” CNN,New York 1,every possible angle of every story over and over and over,even when they are of no possible use to me.Work moves from foreground to background. 43.Compared to the clear words of her boyfriend on screen,his accent becomes______. A.unreal B.unbearable C.misleading D.not understandable 解析:unreal意思是“不真实的”,unbearable意为“不可忍受的”,misleading意为“使人迷惑的,产生误解的”,not understandable “不可理解的”,根据第一段意思应选D项。 答案:D 44.The passage implies that the author and her boyfriend live in______. A.the same city B.the same country C.different countries D.different cities in England 解析:作者的男朋友在英格兰,而我所收看的节目是纽约一台,因此属于两个国家。 答案:C 45.What does the last paragraph mean? A.Having worked on the computer for too long,she became a bit strange. B.Sometimes TV programs give her comfort and even makes her forget her work. C.She watches TV a lot in order to keep up with the latest news and the weather. D.She turns on TV now and then in order to get some valuable information. 解析:考查概括能力。本段主要说明电视的影响,应从B、C、D三项中选,D项为错误陈述,C项片面,故选B。 答案:B 46.What is the author’s attitude to the computer? A.At first she likes it but later becomes tired of it. B.She likes it because it is very convenient. C.She dislikes it because TV is more attractive. D.She likes it because it provides an imaginary world. 答案:A 47.The underlined phrase “coming back out of the cave” probably means______. A.going back to the dreaming world B.coming back home from the outside world C.bringing back direct human contact D.getting away from living a strange life 解析:由前一句可推知答案为C。 答案:C 第二卷 第一节:阅读填表 阅读下列短文,然后在表格内横线上填写正确信息。 Man:...and lastly this week I have some information about a course at the Country College near Burnside,which might be of interest to someone wanting a late-season break,or to groups.They tell me they have spaces on their Country Sports courses the weekend after next.There are three courses that you might like to join:fishing,hill-walking,and rock-climbing.So,quite a lot of variety there.The fishing is open to anyone over the age of 12,and so is the hill-walking.For the varitety there.The fishing is open to anyone over the age of 12,and so is the hill-walking.For the rockclimbing you must be sixteen or older,for safety reasons.All these courses are really enjoyable.
