I was in my third year of teaching writing at Ralph High School in New York, when one of mystudents, 15-year-old Mikey, gave me a note from his mother. It explained his absence (缺席)from class the day before.
"Dear Mr. McCort, Mikey's grandmother, who is eighty years of age, fell down the stairsfrom too much coffee and I kept Mikey at home to take care of her and his baby sister so I could goto my job. Please excuse Mikey and he'll do his best in the future. P.S. His grandmother is OK. "I had seen Mikey writing the note at his desk. I said nothing. Most parental-excuse notes Ireceived were penned by my students. If I were to deal with them, I'd be busy 24 hours a day. Thewriters of those notes didn't realize that honest excuse notes were usually dull: "Peter was late be-cause the alarm clock didn't go off."
The students always said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject, but when theyproduced excuse notes, they were excellent. So I decided to type out a dozen excuse notes and gavethem to my classes. I said, "They're supposed to be written by parents, but actually they are not.true, Mikey?" The students looked at me nervously.
"Now, this will be the first class to study the art of the excuse note -the first class, ever, topractice writing them. " Everyone smiled as I went on, "Today I'd like you to write An ExcuseNote from Adam to God' or ' An Excuse Note from Eve to God'. " Heads went down. Pens racedacross paper. For the first time ever I saw students so immersed (專心的) in their writing, theyhad to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.
The next day everyone had excuse notes. Heated discussions followed. But suddenly I saw theheadmaster at the door. He entered the classroom and walked up and down, looking at papers, andthen said, "I'd like you to see me in my office." My heart sank.
When I stepped into his office, he came to shake my hand and said, "I just want to tell youthat that lesson, that task, whatever the hell you were doing, was great. Those kids were writingon the college level. Thank you."

Do you remember the Millennium (千禧年) Goals? When world leaders celebrated the year 2000 with a serious promise to reduce poverty (貧窮) and hunger, check the spread of AIDS, getboys and girls into school, and improve public health, all by 2015?
Well, three years down the road, and the UNDP's yearly collection of facts and figures alreadyshows that if we carry on as we are, the only goal likely to be met is that for reducing poverty by ahalf, and that is entirely due to the success of one country-China. It is so vast that the fast-grow-ing economy in China lifts millions of people above the poverty line, even though in Africa, LatinAmerica and the former Soviet Union, people have actually been getting poorer.
Otherwise, progress is good only in parts. East Asia should meet its goal of reducing hungerby a half by 2015, and Latin America and the Caribbean are not far behind, but at the present speedof progress, Africa and South Asia won't get there for another hundred years.
The good news is that it can be done-there are success stories. Ghana-an economic basketcase in the eighties and early nineties-has managed to find a way out of its difficulties and it's nowcomfortably in the middle range of countries, way ahead of the much more naturally wealthy Niger-ia. For Congo, Cambodia or Iraq, ruined by war, or every southern African country damaged by AIDS, there is a Mauritius or a South Korea steadily working its way up the league table towards abetter life for its people.
60. Which of the millennium goals is likely to be met according to the text?
A.Improving public health.
B.Reducing poverty by a half.
C.Sending children to school.
D.Stopping the spread of AIDS.
61. Which part of the world can meet the goal of reducing hunger?
A.The Caribbean.
B.Latin America.
C.East Asia.
D.Africa and South Asia.
62, What economic situation is best expressed as "basket case" (Paragraph 4)?
A.Very bad.
B.Promising.
C.Unexpected.
D.Naturally developed.
63. Which country is mentioned as an example of successful development in the text?
A.Conto.
B.Nigeria.
C.Cambodia.
D.Mauritius.

Understanding how nature reacts to climate (氣候) changewill require checking key, life cycleevents-flowering, the appearance of leaves, the first frog calls of the spring-all around theworld. But ecologists (生態(tài)學(xué)家) can't be everywhere, so they're turning to non-scientists, some-times called citizen scientists, for help.
A group of scientists and educators set up an organization last year called the National Phenology Network. "Pbenology" is what scientists call the study of the timing of events in nature.
One of the group's first efforts is to ask scientists and non-scientists to collect information aboutplant flowering and leafing every year. The program, called Project BudBurst, collects life cycleinformation on a variety of common plants from across the United States. People taking part in theproject record their information on the Project BudBurst website.
"People don't have to be scientists-they just have to look around and see what's in theirneighbourhood," says Jennifer Schwartz, a scientist with the project. "As we collect this information, we'll be able to know about the changes of plants and animals as the climate changes."
Not only that, the information also helps scientists learn about how these changes will have aneffect on people, scientists examining lilac (丁香花) flowering in western United States reportedthat in years when lilacs flowered early--before May 20th-wildfires later in the summer and fallwere likely to be larger and more serious. Lilac flowering, then, could serve as an alarm bell.
"The best way for us to increase our knowledge of how plants and animals are reacting toclimate change is to increase the count of information we have," Schwartz says. "That's why weneed citizen scientists to get as much information from as many places on as many plants and animals over as long a time period as we can.
68. Project Budburst aims to_________
A.study animal behavior all year round
B.invite citizen scientists to do scientific research
C.collect information on the life cycles of common plants
D.help ecologists learn about wildfires in western United States
69. The author uses lilac flowering as an example to show_________
A.flowers could help prevent wildfires
B.plant flowering can be related to wildfires
C.some flowers are closer to our life than others
D.lilacs are the best plants to show climate change
70. Why are citizen scientists invited to take part in Project BudBurst?
A.To give a hand in research.
B.To teach science to the public.
C.To help create a website of popular science.
[ D]To call people's attention to climate change.
71. According to Schwartz, what can help people know more about climate change?
A.Taking a course on phenology.
B.Knowledge of life cycle events of plants and animals.

In the program today, let me ask you aquestion first: What do you think would be the hardestjob in Britain? A police officer? Perhaps a deepsea fisherman? Well, no, according to recent research, being aLondon taxi driver takes that prize. It's really a hardjob, really difficult. One reason is the traffic. It's get-ting worse and worse in London. For most of us, if wehave to sit in a traffic jam for a few minutes, we getanxious. But imagine if you had to do that all day, every day as your job. What's more, passengers get into thetaxi and want to get from A to B as quickly as possible. They're in a hurry, and that makes things worse for thedrivers. To prepare for the test, would-be drivers haveto remember ways and places of interest around CentralLondon. This is an area which has about 25,000 streets.They need to be able to take passengers from A to Bwithout having to look at a map and without having toask for directions. It usually takes nearly three years topass the test, so it is also found in the research that partsof the brains of taxi drivers are actually larger than thosein the general population. It seems as if learning all thestreets and ways makes a part of the brain grow. Well,anyway, this is a most tiring job. Next time you're stuckin a traffic jam and feel mad, spare a thought for the taxidrivers, who have to spend most of their working life inthem.
第二部分 英語(yǔ)知識(shí)運(yùn)用 第一節(jié) 單項(xiàng)填空 21.D【精析】句意: ——安已經(jīng)出去了。 ——哦,是 嗎?她什么時(shí)間走的?本題考查的是情景英語(yǔ)。由第一句可知安出去了,第二句后句問的是“她什么時(shí)間走的”,由此可知此處表示的是再次確認(rèn)。故D正確。 22.C【精析】句意:如果你認(rèn)為杰克會(huì)借錢給你,你肯定是瘋了。本題考查的是情態(tài)動(dòng)詞。“need”的意思是“需要”,“should”的意思是“應(yīng)該”,“must”的意思是“肯定”,“can”的意思是“能”。故C正確。 23.D【精析】句意:1871年,芝加哥的一場(chǎng)大火毀了1800幢建筑物。本題考查的是形容詞比較級(jí)的用法。as+原級(jí)+as意為“和…一樣”,表示肯定意義,為等量比較。兩個(gè)as之間通常為表示數(shù)量、程度、性質(zhì)的詞,如many,much,littie,few,good,tall等。如:The tree is as tall asthe building.這棵樹和那幢樓一樣高。故D正確。 24.C【精析】句意:你好!我不知道你在倫敦,你在這兒多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間了?本題考查的是時(shí)態(tài)。從句中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞為一般過去時(shí)were,可知主句中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要用一般過去時(shí)或一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。分析題意可知,“我不知道你在倫敦”這個(gè)事實(shí)發(fā)生在雙方此刻的交談之前,主句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)使用一般過去時(shí)。故C正確。 25.D【精析】句意:我不知道我來的這問辦公室是否就是我要找的,這個(gè)門上沒有名字。本題考查的是定冠詞的用法。第一個(gè)空表示特指“這間辦公室”,第二個(gè)空表示特指“這間辦公室的 門”,所以都應(yīng)當(dāng)使用定冠詞。故D正確。 【知識(shí)拓展】定冠詞與不定冠詞的具體用法如下: (1)表示泛指的一日三餐的名詞前一般不用定冠詞。如:Lunch is ready.午飯準(zhǔn)備好了。但若要確指某早、中、晚餐則需用定冠詞。如:The breakfast was well cooked.這頓早飯做得很好。 (2)表示日期、月份、季節(jié)、日、夜、早、晚、周、年等的名詞前一般不用定冠詞。如:School be-gins in September.學(xué)校九月份開學(xué)。但若表示特指某一段時(shí)間或特定的時(shí)間概念,則用定冠詞。若表示“某一個(gè)、某一種”這類概念時(shí),季節(jié)名詞前要用不定冠詞。如:Where did theyspend the sunliner?他們?cè)谀睦镞^的暑假? (3)在姓名前或Mr./Mrs./Miss/Ms.+姓氏前用不定冠詞,表示“某一個(gè),某位”,有不確定的意思;也可表示“一位”,指某家庭的成員。如:A Mr.Thomson wanted to see you.一位叫湯姆森的先生要見你。A Professor Zhou ap-plied for the post.某位周教授申請(qǐng)這個(gè)職位。用在某些物質(zhì)名詞前的不定冠詞,表示“一陣、一份、一類、一場(chǎng)”等。如:He was caught in aheavy rain.他遇上了一場(chǎng)大雨。 26.B【精析】句意: ——需要我?guī)湍闶帐靶欣顔? ——不用了。我鄰居已經(jīng)提出要幫我了,但還是謝謝你。 本題考查的是情景英語(yǔ)。第一句是向?qū)Ψ教峁椭?,第二句回答表明鄰居?huì)提供幫助,但依然對(duì)對(duì)方表示感謝。All the sanle.意為“依然,照樣”。It's all right.意為“沒關(guān)系”。Take it easy.意為“慢慢來”。Come on.意為“來吧”。故B正確。 27.C【精析】句意:當(dāng)這對(duì)新婚夫婦要去度蜜月時(shí),人們祝福他們一切安好。本題考查的是固定搭配。leave for為固定搭配,意為“離開去某地”。由題意可知,這對(duì)新婚夫婦要離開本地去度蜜月。故C正確。 28.D【精析】句意:我從來沒想到他是威爾遜先生,他長(zhǎng)得一點(diǎn)兒也不像他其他的兄弟。本題考查的是固定搭配。not anything like sb.為固定搭配,意為“根本不像,一點(diǎn)也不像某人”,如He isn't anything like my first boss.他完全不像我的第一個(gè)老板。故D正確。 29.B【精析】句意:隨著我們產(chǎn)品在歐洲市場(chǎng)的成功,我們下一步要將其打入美國(guó)市場(chǎng)。本題考查的是非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的用法。非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞在此作狀語(yǔ),表示伴隨狀態(tài)?,F(xiàn)在分詞與句中主語(yǔ)構(gòu)成邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系,在時(shí)間上表示與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞同時(shí)發(fā)生,此處表示“伴隨成功,我們即將采取下一步行動(dòng)”。故B正確。 【知識(shí)拓展】現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語(yǔ)表示與主語(yǔ)構(gòu)成邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系,與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞同時(shí)發(fā)生,或基本上同時(shí)發(fā)生。如:Entering the room,she found the wall newly painted.走進(jìn)房間,她發(fā)現(xiàn)墻剛粉刷過。過去分詞作狀語(yǔ)表示與句中主語(yǔ)構(gòu)成邏輯上的動(dòng)賓關(guān)系。如:Followed bysome students,the teacher came into the lab.在學(xué)生們的跟隨下,老師走進(jìn)了實(shí)驗(yàn)室。 30.B【精析】句意:是否應(yīng)該接受該職位這一問題令他感到十分困擾。本題考查的是同位語(yǔ)從句中的連接詞。此句表達(dá)的意思是“是否”,且從句中有“or not”進(jìn)一步提示,因此應(yīng)用whether來引導(dǎo)同位語(yǔ)從句。故B正確。 31.C【精析】句意:他整周都在期待著我們野營(yíng)假期,但不幸的是每天都在下雨。本題考查的是時(shí)態(tài)。由題干中的“the whole week”可知,他一整周都在期待,表示反復(fù)的情緒,應(yīng)用過去完成進(jìn)行時(shí)。故C正確。 【知識(shí)拓展】過去完成進(jìn)行時(shí)的構(gòu)成為hadbeen+v-ing形式,主要有兩種常見用法: (1)表示過去某個(gè)時(shí)間之前一直在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作。和過去完成時(shí)一樣,過去完成時(shí)也必須以過去時(shí)間為前提,如:He had been writing thisbook up to that time.直到那時(shí)他一直在寫這本書。She had been studying Japanese before elatering the university.她上大學(xué)以前一直在學(xué)日語(yǔ)。 (2)還可表示反復(fù)的動(dòng)作、情緒、近的情況等。如:He had been telling you this.他多次跟你說這件事。注意,過去完成進(jìn)行時(shí)很少用在否定句中,而多以過去完成時(shí)代替。如:Theyhad not swum in the river for a long time.他們很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間沒去那條河里游泳了。 32.B【精析】句意:?jiǎn)贪材染褪呛同旣悂喴黄饘W(xué)習(xí)鋼琴的那位婦女。本題考查的是介詞的用法。study with意為“和…一起學(xué)習(xí)”。故B正確。 33.A【精析】句意:貝拉既和藹又漂亮,還工作努力??傊莻€(gè)好女孩。本題考查的是詞組辨析?!皌o sum up”意為“概括起來說”,“as a re-suit”意為“結(jié)果是”,“by the way”意為“順便說一下”,“in the end”意為“后”,題中后句是前句內(nèi)容的概括,故A正確。 34.D【精析】句意:20世紀(jì)20年代第出現(xiàn)的電視真正改變了人們了解世界的途徑。本題考查的是名詞詞義辨析?!癷dea”意為“想法”,“direction”意為“方向”,“method”意為“方法”,“way”意為“途徑”。故D正確。 35.D【精析】句意:馬克在大學(xué)的第一年充滿了興奮 和快樂。本題考查的是非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的用法。非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞在句中作后置定語(yǔ)。不定式作定語(yǔ),表示將要發(fā)生的動(dòng)作;現(xiàn)在分詞作定語(yǔ)表主動(dòng)關(guān)系,表示動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行;過去分詞作定語(yǔ)表示被修飾的名詞與分詞之間為被動(dòng)關(guān)系,且動(dòng)作已經(jīng)完成。分析題意可知,本句是對(duì)馬克在大學(xué)第一年的描述,這段時(shí)間已經(jīng)過去,且橫線前后兩部分之間為被動(dòng)關(guān)系,所以應(yīng)該使用過去分詞。故D正確。
第二節(jié) 完形填空 參考譯文 我聽說在國(guó)際象棋比賽上會(huì)有許多漂亮的走法。 在決定性比賽中,雖然馬體和那位俄羅斯大師選手旗鼓相當(dāng),但他后還是發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的“王后”處在了被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中。有好幾種辦法可以避開攻擊,因?yàn)椤巴鹾蟆笔侵匾囊粋€(gè)棋子,所以觀眾認(rèn)為馬休自然會(huì)將他的“王后” 移到安全處。 馬休陷入了深思,他用他所有的時(shí)間來考慮這個(gè)局面。他拿起他的“王后”;停頓了一下,然后把它放在了不可思議的格子里——在這個(gè)格子里,王后將會(huì)被三個(gè)敵人中的任何一個(gè)吃掉。 馬休犧牲了他的“王后”,一步不可思議的走法。每個(gè)人都很失望。 然而,俄羅斯選手和其他的選手都意識(shí)到馬休實(shí)際上走了一步很聰明的棋。因?yàn)轱@然不論比賽如何進(jìn)行,這個(gè)俄羅斯選手都將處于失敗的地位。意識(shí)到這點(diǎn),俄羅斯選手承認(rèn)了他的失敗。 當(dāng)觀眾平復(fù)了他們的驚訝——在馬體大膽的走法中,他們把錢拋散到棋盤上。馬休用一種非常不尋常的和大膽的舉動(dòng)贏得了勝利,他通過犧牲“王后”贏了。 對(duì)于我來說,馬體的勝利并不重要,重要的是他通過這種走法打破了常規(guī)思維。他比通常的模式看得更遠(yuǎn),能夠基于并且只是基于他自己的判斷來進(jìn)行這樣一種嘗試。所以不論這次比賽結(jié)果如何,馬休都是個(gè)勝利者。 36.C【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。expe-rience意為“經(jīng)歷”,battle意為“戰(zhàn)斗”,game意為“比賽”,chance意為“機(jī)會(huì)”。根據(jù)上下文可知,本文講述的是在一場(chǎng)國(guó)際象棋比賽中發(fā)生的事情。故C正確。 37.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。player意為“選手”,person意為“人”,winner意為“獲勝者”,enemy意為“敵人”。上文提到馬休參加了一場(chǎng)決定性的象棋比賽,master player表示“大師選手”。故A正確。 38.D【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。support意為“支持”,attack意為“攻擊”,advance意為“前進(jìn)”,escape意為“逃離”。上文提到馬休發(fā)現(xiàn)他的“王后”處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中,后文提到由于“王后”是重要的一個(gè)模子,由此可以推測(cè),此處應(yīng)該用有“躲避,逃脫”意義的詞。故D正確。 39.B【精析】本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。suitable意為“合適的”,powerful意為“有影響力的”,respected意為“受尊敬的”,dangerous意為“危險(xiǎn)的”。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知,“王后”是象棋中有影響力的一個(gè)棋子。故B正確。 40.C【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。check意為“檢查”,fight意為“斗爭(zhēng)”,safety意為“安全性”。defeat意為“打敗”。根據(jù)上下文可知,由于“王后”是重要的一個(gè)棋子,觀眾自然會(huì)認(rèn)為馬休要將他的“王后”移到安全的地方。故C正確。 41.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。condition意為“狀況”,change意為“變化”,piece意為“棋子”,action意為“行動(dòng)”。根據(jù)上下文可知,馬休的“王后”目前處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中,他需要慎重考慮目前這種狀況來挽救棋局。故A正確。 42.C【精析】本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。protected意為“被保護(hù)的”,undisturbed意為“不被打擾的”,unexpected意為“不可思議的”,deserted意為“偏僻的”。由下文可知,馬休犧牲了他的“王后”,由此可以推測(cè),馬休將“王后”放到了不可思議的格子里。故C正確。 43.D【精析】本題考查的是動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。frighten意為“驚嚇”,guard意為“保護(hù)”,discover意為“發(fā)現(xiàn)”,catch意為“抓住”。由下文可知,馬休犧牲了他的“王后”,可以推測(cè),馬休將“王后”放到了不可思議的格子里,王后將會(huì)被三個(gè)敵人中的任何一個(gè)吃掉。故D正確。 44.B【精析】本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。comforted意為“安慰的”,disappointed意為“失望的”, delighted意為“高興的”,annoyed意為“氣惱的”。上文提到當(dāng)所有人都以為馬休會(huì)將“王后”移到安全地帶時(shí),他卻犧牲了“王后”,這是一步出乎意料的走法,所以每個(gè)人都很失望。故B正確。 45.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。players意為“選手”,master意為“大師”,crowd意為“人群”,organizer意為“組織者”。根據(jù)上文可知,觀眾們都以為馬休會(huì)將“王后”移到棋盤的安全地帶,因此不可能意識(shí)到馬休走了一步聰明的棋。全文沒有提到組織者。故A正確。 46.A【精析】本題考查的是形容詞的用法。smart意為“聰明的”,wrong意為“錯(cuò)誤的”,free意為“免費(fèi)的”,difficult意為“困難的”。由下文可知 俄羅斯人承認(rèn)了自己的失敗,由此可以推測(cè),馬休這一走法很聰明,很明智。故A正確。 47.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。game意為“比賽”,money意為“錢”,queen意為“王后”,chessboard意為“棋盤”。上文提到馬休的“王后”處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中,馬休犧牲了他的“王后”,這是一步很明智的走法,以及下文俄羅斯人承認(rèn)了自己的失敗可知,接下來不管比賽如何進(jìn)行,結(jié)果都已成定局。故A正確。 48.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。losing意為“失敗的”,favourable意為“有利的”,lead.ing意為“的”,doubtful意為“懷疑的”。由下文可知,俄羅斯人意識(shí)到了自己的失敗,由此可以推測(cè),這個(gè)俄羅斯人將會(huì)失敗。故A正確。 49.D【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。cause意為“原因”,blow意為“打擊”,accident意為“事故”,shock意為“驚訝”。由上文可知,觀眾們看到馬休犧牲了他的“王后”都感到很失望,很驚訝。由此可以推測(cè),人們慢慢地從驚訝中恢復(fù)過來。故D正確。 50.B【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。prize意為“獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)”,victory意為“勝利”,progress意為“進(jìn)步”,attention意為“注意”。由上文可知俄羅斯人承認(rèn)了他的失敗,由此可以推測(cè),馬休贏得了勝利。故B正確。 51.A【精析】本題考查的是動(dòng)詞的用法。won意為“贏得”,made意為“得到”,gained意為“獲得”,earned意為“賺得”。贏得體育比賽用win來表達(dá)。故A正確。 52.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。im-portant意為“重要的”,exciting意為“興奮的”,unforgettable意為“不可忘記的”,unclear意為“不明朗的”。由下文可知重要的是馬休通過這種走法打破了常規(guī)思維,由此可以推測(cè),馬休的勝利并不重要。故A正確。 53.B【精析】本題考查的是名詞的辨析。idea意為“主意”,thinking意為“思維”,chess意為“象棋”,training意為“訓(xùn)練”。本句講的是重要的是馬休通過這種走法打破了常規(guī)思維。常規(guī)思維用standard thinking來表示。故B正確。 54.B【精析】本題考查的是動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)辨析。look into意為“調(diào)查”,look further意為“看遠(yuǎn)些”,lookahead意為“往前看”,look outside意為“看外面”。本句意思是他比通常的模式看得更遠(yuǎn),能夠基于并且只是基于他的判斷來進(jìn)行這樣一種嘗試。故B正確。 55.D【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。came意為“來”,was organized意為“被組織”,wasdesigned意為“被設(shè)計(jì)”,ended意為“結(jié)束”。本句意為不論這次比賽結(jié)果如何,馬休都是個(gè)勝利者。故D正確。
第三部分 閱讀理解 參考譯文 Text1 那是我在紐約瑞芙高中教寫作的第三年。一天,我的一個(gè)學(xué)生,15歲的邁克,給了我一張他媽媽寫的假條,上面解釋了前天他為什么缺課。 “親愛的邁考特先生,前天邁克八十歲的祖母從灑滿咖啡的樓梯上摔了下來,所以我讓邁克待在家里照顧她和他的小妹妹,這樣我好去上班。請(qǐng)?jiān)忂~克的缺課,他以后會(huì)做得很好。另外,他的祖母已經(jīng)好了?!蔽乙娺^邁克在他的書桌上寫這張紙條,但我什么也沒說。我收到的大多數(shù)家長(zhǎng)的請(qǐng)假條都是學(xué)生自己寫的。如果我要處理它們,一天24小時(shí)都會(huì)很忙。寫這些假條的學(xué)生沒有意識(shí)到真正的請(qǐng)假條內(nèi)容通常很枯燥,如“皮特遲到了,因?yàn)轸[鐘沒響”。 學(xué)生們經(jīng)常說任何科目都很難寫夠200字,但是當(dāng)他們編寫請(qǐng)假條時(shí),卻做得很好。所以我決定打印出一些請(qǐng)假條,然后把它們給我班學(xué)生。我說:“請(qǐng)假條本來是要家長(zhǎng)寫的,但是實(shí)際上并不是這樣。是不是,邁克?”學(xué)生們都很緊張地看著我。 “現(xiàn)在,這將是第一堂教學(xué)生寫請(qǐng)假條的課——第一堂練習(xí)寫它們的課,”我繼續(xù)說,每個(gè)人都微笑聽著?!敖裉煳蚁胱屇銈儗懸粡垺畞啴?dāng)給上帝的請(qǐng)假條’或者一張‘夏娃給上帝的請(qǐng)假條’。”學(xué)生們都低下頭,筆尖迅速地在紙上寫著。我第看到學(xué)生們這么專心地寫作。他們吃午飯都是被朋友叫去的。 第二天每個(gè)人都寫好了請(qǐng)假條,接下來我們進(jìn)行了激烈的討論。但是突然校長(zhǎng)出現(xiàn)在門口。他走進(jìn)教室,在教室里面來回走動(dòng),看了看請(qǐng)假條,然后對(duì)我說:“你來我的辦公室。”我的心沉了下去。 當(dāng)我走進(jìn)他的辦公室時(shí),校長(zhǎng)卻走過來握著我的手說:“我只是想告訴你,那節(jié)課,那項(xiàng)任務(wù),不論你在做什么,都很棒。這些孩子的寫作都是大學(xué)水平,謝謝你?!? 56.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“作者如何知道大多數(shù)家長(zhǎng)的請(qǐng)假條都是學(xué)生自己寫的?”根據(jù)第三段后一句“The writers of those notes didn'trealize that honest excuse notes were usuallydull…”可知,家長(zhǎng)寫的請(qǐng)假條內(nèi)容都很枯燥,不會(huì)有很多情節(jié),而邁克交的那張假條有許多情節(jié)。故B為正確答案。 57.D【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“當(dāng)作者發(fā)現(xiàn)這些學(xué)生撒謊時(shí),他做了什么?”根據(jù)第四段第二句“So I decided to type out a dozen excuse notesand gave them to my classes.”和第五段首句 “this will be the first class to study the art of theexcuse note…”可知,作者這樣做的目的是要幫助學(xué)生提高寫作水平。故D為正確答案。 58.A【精析】推理題。題干意為“我們可以推測(cè)當(dāng)邁克缺課時(shí),他在 _________?!备鶕?jù)第三段第一句話“I had seen Mikey writing the note at his desk.I said nothing.”可知邁克給我的那張請(qǐng)假條的內(nèi)容是他自己編的,請(qǐng)假條中的內(nèi)容都不屬實(shí),由此可知BC不正確。D項(xiàng)在文中并未涉及,故A為正確答案。 59.A【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“校長(zhǎng)認(rèn)為作者教學(xué)的方法如何?”通過后一段首句“I just want to……whatever the hell you were doing,was great.Those kids were writing on the college level.”可知,校長(zhǎng)認(rèn)為作者教的這堂課很棒,學(xué)生們的作文都達(dá)到了大學(xué)水平,由此可知他認(rèn)為作者教學(xué)方法很有效。故A為正確答案。 參考譯文 Text 2 你還記得千禧年愿望嗎?還記得世界領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人慶祝2000年時(shí),他們的重要嗎?是到2015年,減少貧窮和饑餓,控制艾滋的傳播,讓孩子們上學(xué),提高公眾健康嗎? 現(xiàn)在,還剩下三年時(shí)間。聯(lián)合國(guó)開發(fā)計(jì)劃署年度事實(shí)和數(shù)據(jù)匯總已經(jīng)顯示:如果我們還像現(xiàn)在這樣,那么能達(dá)到的目標(biāo)是貧窮減少一半,那還是基于一個(gè)國(guó)家——中國(guó)的勝利。在中國(guó),快速增長(zhǎng)的經(jīng)濟(jì)讓幾百萬(wàn)人擺脫了貧困,雖然在非洲、拉丁美洲和前蘇聯(lián),人們變得更加貧窮。 進(jìn)步也只是在部分地區(qū)。東亞應(yīng)該能在2015年達(dá)到它的目標(biāo)——減少一半的饑餓,拉丁美洲和地中海也不會(huì)太差。但是按照現(xiàn)在的速度,非洲和南亞即使再給100年也不會(huì)達(dá)到這個(gè)目標(biāo)。 好消息是這些都能被做到,已經(jīng)有了成功的例子。加納——一個(gè)在上世紀(jì)80年代和90年代早期經(jīng)濟(jì)衰敗的國(guó)家,已經(jīng)找到了擺脫困境的方法,現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)進(jìn)入中等收入國(guó)家之列,比自然資源豐富的尼日利亞更加靠前。對(duì)于剛果、柬埔寨和飽受戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)困擾的伊拉克,以及每一個(gè)被艾滋病感染的南非國(guó)家,則應(yīng)該以毛里求斯和韓國(guó)為榜樣,它們正在穩(wěn)健地向自己的聯(lián)盟會(huì)議的目標(biāo)——給自己的人民帶來更好的生活邁進(jìn)。 60.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“根據(jù)文意,哪個(gè)千禧年愿望將會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)?”根據(jù)第二段第一句“Well,three years down the road…the only goallikely to be met is that for reducing poverty by ahalf…… ”可知,可能達(dá)到的目標(biāo)是減少一半的貧窮。故B為正確答案。 61.C【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“世界上哪一部分地區(qū)能達(dá)到減少饑餓的目標(biāo)?”根據(jù)第三段第二句“East Asia should meet its goal of reducinghunger by a half by 2015.”可知,東亞應(yīng)該能在2015年達(dá)到它的目標(biāo)——減少一半的饑餓。故C為正確答案。 62.A【精析】猜測(cè)詞義題。題干意為“什么樣的經(jīng)濟(jì)環(huán)境可以好地表達(dá)“basket case”?根據(jù)第四段第二句“Ghana…h(huán)as managed to find a way outof its difficulties…”可知,在上世紀(jì)80年代和90年代早期加納經(jīng)濟(jì)非常糟糕。故A為正確答案。 63.D【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“在文章中哪個(gè)國(guó)家被當(dāng)作成功發(fā)展的例子提到?”根據(jù)后一段可知,剛果、柬埔寨發(fā)展并不好,故排除A、C,尼日利亞只是用來說明加納發(fā)展迅速,并不是當(dāng)作成功發(fā)展的例子提到,故排除B。后一句提到毛里求斯正在穩(wěn)漸地向自己的聯(lián)盟會(huì)議的目標(biāo)——給自己的人民帶去更好的生活邁進(jìn)。故D為正確答案。 參考譯文 Text 3 想提高你的語(yǔ)言水平,卻沒有時(shí)間去國(guó)外上課?世界上越來越多的大學(xué)正在給學(xué)生提供在自己舒適的家里就能得到網(wǎng)絡(luò)文憑(遠(yuǎn)程教育)的機(jī)會(huì)。這樣的大學(xué)和學(xué)院很多都是被官方認(rèn)可的,這意味著他們已經(jīng)達(dá)到了一定的優(yōu)秀水平。 如果你決定上網(wǎng)絡(luò)語(yǔ)言課程(或者是其他這種類型的課程),請(qǐng)先了解網(wǎng)絡(luò)學(xué)習(xí)的優(yōu)勢(shì)。它通?;ㄙM(fèi)較少,你可以根據(jù)自己的節(jié)奏來學(xué)習(xí),你幾乎可以一天24小時(shí)從世界上任何一臺(tái)電腦上得到資料。但是,你不能和人們面對(duì)面地交流,不能像你在國(guó)外親自上課時(shí)那樣。 此外,去國(guó)外學(xué)習(xí)的優(yōu)勢(shì)還有每天有機(jī)會(huì)了解新的文化,見新朋友,和新朋友練習(xí)使用外語(yǔ),以及去參觀世界上不同的地方。但是,對(duì)于一些學(xué)生來說,去國(guó)外上學(xué)也有許多困難,包括高花費(fèi),在一段時(shí)間內(nèi)離開自己的學(xué)校、家庭或者工作,熟悉新文化和新生活的困難。 不管你怎么做,選擇遠(yuǎn)程教育時(shí)要考慮能否滿足你教育需要和你能夠支付的遠(yuǎn)程教育項(xiàng)目的費(fèi)用。同樣還要考慮,它能否讓你通過文化和教育活動(dòng),而不只是課堂學(xué)習(xí),得到成長(zhǎng)的機(jī)會(huì),這也很重要。 64.D【精析】主旨題。題干意為“作者寫這篇文章的目的是什么?”文章首句提出問題Looking toimprove your language skills,but you don't havethe time to go abroad to attend school?想提高你的語(yǔ)言水平,卻沒有時(shí)間去國(guó)外上課?接著講述了新的學(xué)習(xí)方式——網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程。第二、三段分別講述了網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程和去國(guó)外上學(xué)的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)。 通過這些可以推斷本文的目的是給那些不能去國(guó)外上學(xué)的人介紹一種網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程。故D為正確答案。 65.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“網(wǎng)上學(xué)習(xí)一種語(yǔ)言的缺點(diǎn)是什么?”根據(jù)第二段后一句“Howev-or,yon won't get the human interaction of meetingpeople face to face,as you would if you were at·tending a school abroad in person.”可知,通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)學(xué)習(xí)一種語(yǔ)言,我們不能像上課那樣和人們面對(duì)面地互動(dòng)。故B為正確答案。 66.A【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“第三段主要討論了的優(yōu)點(diǎn)和缺點(diǎn)?!备鶕?jù)第三段第一句“On the other hand,the advantages of going abroad may…”和第二句However,there may be anumber of disadvantages for some students…”可知,本段主要討論了出國(guó)學(xué)習(xí)的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)。故A為正確答案。 67.A【精析】推理題。題干意為“文章是如何組織的?”綜覽全文,第一段提出主題:網(wǎng)上學(xué)習(xí)。第二、三段分別對(duì)網(wǎng)上學(xué)習(xí)和出國(guó)學(xué)習(xí)的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)進(jìn)行了對(duì)比。后一段表達(dá)了作者自己的思想。由此可推知,本文的結(jié)構(gòu)是提出主題——對(duì)比優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)——得出結(jié)論。故A為正確答案。 參考譯文 Text4 要了解自然界如何適應(yīng)氣候變化,需要了解全世界主要生物周期事件——開花、發(fā)芽、春天第一聲蛙叫。但是不可能任何一個(gè)地方都有生態(tài)學(xué)家,所以人們經(jīng)常會(huì)向非科學(xué)家,有時(shí)也被稱作市民科學(xué)家的人求教。 去年一群科學(xué)家和教育家成立了一個(gè)叫做國(guó)家生態(tài)網(wǎng)絡(luò)的組織。“生態(tài)”是科學(xué)家對(duì)自然事件發(fā)生時(shí)間的研究。 小組的第一個(gè)活動(dòng)是讓科學(xué)家和非科學(xué)家收集每年關(guān)于植物開花和長(zhǎng)葉子的信息。這個(gè)叫做花蕾綻放計(jì)劃的項(xiàng)目收集了來自全美國(guó)的許多常見植物的生長(zhǎng)信息。參加這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的人在項(xiàng)目網(wǎng)站上記錄他們的信息。 “不需要人們一定是科學(xué)家——他們只需要多觀察自己居住區(qū)附近有什么,”負(fù)責(zé)這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的一位科學(xué)家詹尼夫·舒娃說。“當(dāng)我們收集這些信息時(shí),我們會(huì)了解隨著氣候的變化動(dòng)植物有哪些變化?!? 不僅僅是這樣,這些信息還會(huì)幫助科學(xué)家了解這些變化是如何影響人的??茖W(xué)家研究了美國(guó)西部的丁香花開花,他們的報(bào)告說當(dāng)丁香花開花早時(shí),即在5月20號(hào)以前開花,在夏天和秋天的森林火災(zāi)就很可能會(huì)很大、很嚴(yán)重。丁香花的開花時(shí)間將會(huì)是一種警鐘?!皩?duì)我們來說,增加關(guān)于動(dòng)植物是如何反應(yīng)氣候變化知識(shí)的好方法就是增加現(xiàn)有信息的數(shù)量,”舒娃說 道,“這也是為什么我們需要市民科學(xué)家能像我們一樣?長(zhǎng)時(shí)間地從越來越多的地方搜集越來越多的信息?!? 68.C【精析】主旨題。題干意為“花蕾綻放計(jì)劃的目標(biāo)是 __________?!备鶕?jù)第三段第二句“The pro-gram,called Project BudBurst,collects life cycleinformation on a variety of common plants fromacross the United States.”可知,花蕾綻放計(jì)劃的目標(biāo)是收集普通植物的生命周期。故C為正確答案。 69.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“作者用丁香花花開作為例子來說明_________?!备鶕?jù)第五段第二句“Scientists…when lilacs flowered early-beforeMay 20th-wildfires later in the summer and fallwere likely to be larger and more serous.”可知.植物開花時(shí)間和森林火災(zāi)有關(guān)系。故B為正確答案。 70.A【精析】推理題。題干意為“為什么市民科學(xué)家被邀請(qǐng)來參加花蕾綻放計(jì)劃?”根據(jù)后一段末句“That's why we need citizen scientists to getas much information from as many places on asmany plants and animals over as long time periodas we can.”可知,之所以邀請(qǐng)市民科學(xué)家參加花蕾綻放計(jì)劃是為了讓他們長(zhǎng)時(shí)間地提供關(guān)于各地各種動(dòng)植物的多樣信息,由此可推知這些信息有助于科學(xué)研究。故A為正確答案。 71.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“在舒娃看來,什么可以幫助人們更多地了解氣候變化?”根據(jù)后一段第一句“The best way for us to increaseour knowledge of how plants and animals are reac-ting to climate change is to increase the amount ofinformation we have.”可知,幫助人們了解氣候變化更多的是增加我們所擁有的信息。故B為正確答案。 參考譯文 Text 5 安排參觀加州科學(xué)中心的計(jì)劃 時(shí)間和門票 加州科學(xué)中心每天從上午10點(diǎn)到下午5點(diǎn)開放,感恩節(jié)、圣誕節(jié)和新年除外。IMAX廳每天開放。如想了解活動(dòng)信息,請(qǐng)閱讀我們的放映時(shí)間表或打電話213-744-7400咨詢。 加州科學(xué)中心的長(zhǎng)期展覽是免費(fèi)的。IMAX廳的門票是根據(jù)不同的年齡組來確定的,團(tuán)體人數(shù)多于15人時(shí)可優(yōu)惠。三個(gè)科學(xué)中心景點(diǎn)要收門票:高纜自行車、運(yùn)動(dòng)模擬器和生態(tài)攀巖。 如果您是15人以上(含15人)的團(tuán)體參觀,請(qǐng)閱讀我們的團(tuán)體預(yù)訂頁(yè)。餐廳和銀行隨時(shí)為您提供服務(wù)。如想了解更多關(guān)于科學(xué)中心和活動(dòng)的信息,請(qǐng)聯(lián)系我們。 如何找到我們 加州科學(xué)中心位于洛杉磯南部,建于歷史文化博覽園中。離博覽會(huì)大道出口的110高速路口西只有兩條街道。那兒有公交車。更多信息請(qǐng)看地圖和指南。計(jì)劃提示 不要錯(cuò)過我們特殊的展覽。這些展覽每年都會(huì)有變化,經(jīng)常會(huì)提供一些新的和有趣的了解科學(xué)的方式。當(dāng)你到達(dá)后,請(qǐng)?jiān)儐栃畔⒅行拿刻焯厥獾幕顒?dòng)。如果您有7歲以下的孩子,請(qǐng)來創(chuàng)造世界或生活奇跡處的發(fā)現(xiàn)房間,那里能讓孩子們親自動(dòng)手學(xué)習(xí)。 72.A【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“當(dāng)你們16個(gè)人去參觀中心時(shí),你們首先應(yīng)該做什么?”根據(jù)第三段首句“If you're coming in a group of 15 or morepeople,please check our group reservationspage.”可知,當(dāng)超過15人參觀時(shí),應(yīng)先預(yù)訂。故A為正確答案。 73.D【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“哪一項(xiàng)是免費(fèi)的?”第二段第一句講述了免費(fèi)參觀和需要買門票參觀的地方。根據(jù)第一句話“Admissionto the Science Center's permanent exhibition is free.”可知,中心長(zhǎng)期展覽是免費(fèi)的。故D為正確答案。 74.C【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“如果你打算來科學(xué)中心,你應(yīng)該_________?!备鶕?jù)第四段可知,如需更多信息,可參考地圖和指南。故C為正確答案。 75.C【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“如果你帶一個(gè)6歲的孩子去,建議你去哪個(gè)地方?”根據(jù)后一句“If you are with children under 7,stop by the Discovery Rooms in creative World or World of Life for some hands-on learning.”可知,7歲以下的孩子可以去創(chuàng)造世界或生活奇跡處的發(fā)現(xiàn)房間。故C為正確答案。 第四部分 書面表達(dá) 【高分范文】 Last weekend,the Students' Union organized somestudents to the community nearby for a voluntary labor.They did many things there.Some swept the floors,some watered the flowers and plants.Some helped theold do the housework.The others played games with thekids.For example,basketball,cards and also hide-and-seek,etc.All of them were very happy.At the momentwhen the students had to leave,the people there allthanked them and hoped that they would come again. 【寫作點(diǎn)金】 這是一篇英文報(bào)導(dǎo)。報(bào)導(dǎo)是把所獲得的信息快而準(zhǔn)地用書面形式進(jìn)行傳遞的一種形式。報(bào)導(dǎo)的文章應(yīng)短小,條理清楚,重點(diǎn)突出,語(yǔ)言簡(jiǎn)練。把握要點(diǎn)或提示,表達(dá)要準(zhǔn)確,勿加敘多議。多使用過去時(shí)。巧用簡(jiǎn)單句和省略句。 【高頻詞句】 vduntary labor義務(wù)勞動(dòng) at the moment when…當(dāng)…的時(shí)候

In the program today, let me ask you aquestion first: What do you think would be the hardestjob in Britain? A police officer? Perhaps a deepsea fisherman? Well, no, according to recent research, being aLondon taxi driver takes that prize. It's really a hardjob, really difficult. One reason is the traffic. It's get-ting worse and worse in London. For most of us, if wehave to sit in a traffic jam for a few minutes, we getanxious. But imagine if you had to do that all day, every day as your job. What's more, passengers get into thetaxi and want to get from A to B as quickly as possible. They're in a hurry, and that makes things worse for thedrivers. To prepare for the test, would-be drivers haveto remember ways and places of interest around CentralLondon. This is an area which has about 25,000 streets.They need to be able to take passengers from A to Bwithout having to look at a map and without having toask for directions. It usually takes nearly three years topass the test, so it is also found in the research that partsof the brains of taxi drivers are actually larger than thosein the general population. It seems as if learning all thestreets and ways makes a part of the brain grow. Well,anyway, this is a most tiring job. Next time you're stuckin a traffic jam and feel mad, spare a thought for the taxidrivers, who have to spend most of their working life inthem.
第二部分 英語(yǔ)知識(shí)運(yùn)用 第一節(jié) 單項(xiàng)填空 21.D【精析】句意: ——安已經(jīng)出去了。 ——哦,是 嗎?她什么時(shí)間走的?本題考查的是情景英語(yǔ)。由第一句可知安出去了,第二句后句問的是“她什么時(shí)間走的”,由此可知此處表示的是再次確認(rèn)。故D正確。 22.C【精析】句意:如果你認(rèn)為杰克會(huì)借錢給你,你肯定是瘋了。本題考查的是情態(tài)動(dòng)詞。“need”的意思是“需要”,“should”的意思是“應(yīng)該”,“must”的意思是“肯定”,“can”的意思是“能”。故C正確。 23.D【精析】句意:1871年,芝加哥的一場(chǎng)大火毀了1800幢建筑物。本題考查的是形容詞比較級(jí)的用法。as+原級(jí)+as意為“和…一樣”,表示肯定意義,為等量比較。兩個(gè)as之間通常為表示數(shù)量、程度、性質(zhì)的詞,如many,much,littie,few,good,tall等。如:The tree is as tall asthe building.這棵樹和那幢樓一樣高。故D正確。 24.C【精析】句意:你好!我不知道你在倫敦,你在這兒多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間了?本題考查的是時(shí)態(tài)。從句中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞為一般過去時(shí)were,可知主句中謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要用一般過去時(shí)或一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。分析題意可知,“我不知道你在倫敦”這個(gè)事實(shí)發(fā)生在雙方此刻的交談之前,主句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)使用一般過去時(shí)。故C正確。 25.D【精析】句意:我不知道我來的這問辦公室是否就是我要找的,這個(gè)門上沒有名字。本題考查的是定冠詞的用法。第一個(gè)空表示特指“這間辦公室”,第二個(gè)空表示特指“這間辦公室的 門”,所以都應(yīng)當(dāng)使用定冠詞。故D正確。 【知識(shí)拓展】定冠詞與不定冠詞的具體用法如下: (1)表示泛指的一日三餐的名詞前一般不用定冠詞。如:Lunch is ready.午飯準(zhǔn)備好了。但若要確指某早、中、晚餐則需用定冠詞。如:The breakfast was well cooked.這頓早飯做得很好。 (2)表示日期、月份、季節(jié)、日、夜、早、晚、周、年等的名詞前一般不用定冠詞。如:School be-gins in September.學(xué)校九月份開學(xué)。但若表示特指某一段時(shí)間或特定的時(shí)間概念,則用定冠詞。若表示“某一個(gè)、某一種”這類概念時(shí),季節(jié)名詞前要用不定冠詞。如:Where did theyspend the sunliner?他們?cè)谀睦镞^的暑假? (3)在姓名前或Mr./Mrs./Miss/Ms.+姓氏前用不定冠詞,表示“某一個(gè),某位”,有不確定的意思;也可表示“一位”,指某家庭的成員。如:A Mr.Thomson wanted to see you.一位叫湯姆森的先生要見你。A Professor Zhou ap-plied for the post.某位周教授申請(qǐng)這個(gè)職位。用在某些物質(zhì)名詞前的不定冠詞,表示“一陣、一份、一類、一場(chǎng)”等。如:He was caught in aheavy rain.他遇上了一場(chǎng)大雨。 26.B【精析】句意: ——需要我?guī)湍闶帐靶欣顔? ——不用了。我鄰居已經(jīng)提出要幫我了,但還是謝謝你。 本題考查的是情景英語(yǔ)。第一句是向?qū)Ψ教峁椭?,第二句回答表明鄰居?huì)提供幫助,但依然對(duì)對(duì)方表示感謝。All the sanle.意為“依然,照樣”。It's all right.意為“沒關(guān)系”。Take it easy.意為“慢慢來”。Come on.意為“來吧”。故B正確。 27.C【精析】句意:當(dāng)這對(duì)新婚夫婦要去度蜜月時(shí),人們祝福他們一切安好。本題考查的是固定搭配。leave for為固定搭配,意為“離開去某地”。由題意可知,這對(duì)新婚夫婦要離開本地去度蜜月。故C正確。 28.D【精析】句意:我從來沒想到他是威爾遜先生,他長(zhǎng)得一點(diǎn)兒也不像他其他的兄弟。本題考查的是固定搭配。not anything like sb.為固定搭配,意為“根本不像,一點(diǎn)也不像某人”,如He isn't anything like my first boss.他完全不像我的第一個(gè)老板。故D正確。 29.B【精析】句意:隨著我們產(chǎn)品在歐洲市場(chǎng)的成功,我們下一步要將其打入美國(guó)市場(chǎng)。本題考查的是非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的用法。非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞在此作狀語(yǔ),表示伴隨狀態(tài)?,F(xiàn)在分詞與句中主語(yǔ)構(gòu)成邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系,在時(shí)間上表示與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞同時(shí)發(fā)生,此處表示“伴隨成功,我們即將采取下一步行動(dòng)”。故B正確。 【知識(shí)拓展】現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語(yǔ)表示與主語(yǔ)構(gòu)成邏輯上的主謂關(guān)系,與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞同時(shí)發(fā)生,或基本上同時(shí)發(fā)生。如:Entering the room,she found the wall newly painted.走進(jìn)房間,她發(fā)現(xiàn)墻剛粉刷過。過去分詞作狀語(yǔ)表示與句中主語(yǔ)構(gòu)成邏輯上的動(dòng)賓關(guān)系。如:Followed bysome students,the teacher came into the lab.在學(xué)生們的跟隨下,老師走進(jìn)了實(shí)驗(yàn)室。 30.B【精析】句意:是否應(yīng)該接受該職位這一問題令他感到十分困擾。本題考查的是同位語(yǔ)從句中的連接詞。此句表達(dá)的意思是“是否”,且從句中有“or not”進(jìn)一步提示,因此應(yīng)用whether來引導(dǎo)同位語(yǔ)從句。故B正確。 31.C【精析】句意:他整周都在期待著我們野營(yíng)假期,但不幸的是每天都在下雨。本題考查的是時(shí)態(tài)。由題干中的“the whole week”可知,他一整周都在期待,表示反復(fù)的情緒,應(yīng)用過去完成進(jìn)行時(shí)。故C正確。 【知識(shí)拓展】過去完成進(jìn)行時(shí)的構(gòu)成為hadbeen+v-ing形式,主要有兩種常見用法: (1)表示過去某個(gè)時(shí)間之前一直在進(jìn)行的動(dòng)作。和過去完成時(shí)一樣,過去完成時(shí)也必須以過去時(shí)間為前提,如:He had been writing thisbook up to that time.直到那時(shí)他一直在寫這本書。She had been studying Japanese before elatering the university.她上大學(xué)以前一直在學(xué)日語(yǔ)。 (2)還可表示反復(fù)的動(dòng)作、情緒、近的情況等。如:He had been telling you this.他多次跟你說這件事。注意,過去完成進(jìn)行時(shí)很少用在否定句中,而多以過去完成時(shí)代替。如:Theyhad not swum in the river for a long time.他們很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間沒去那條河里游泳了。 32.B【精析】句意:?jiǎn)贪材染褪呛同旣悂喴黄饘W(xué)習(xí)鋼琴的那位婦女。本題考查的是介詞的用法。study with意為“和…一起學(xué)習(xí)”。故B正確。 33.A【精析】句意:貝拉既和藹又漂亮,還工作努力??傊莻€(gè)好女孩。本題考查的是詞組辨析?!皌o sum up”意為“概括起來說”,“as a re-suit”意為“結(jié)果是”,“by the way”意為“順便說一下”,“in the end”意為“后”,題中后句是前句內(nèi)容的概括,故A正確。 34.D【精析】句意:20世紀(jì)20年代第出現(xiàn)的電視真正改變了人們了解世界的途徑。本題考查的是名詞詞義辨析?!癷dea”意為“想法”,“direction”意為“方向”,“method”意為“方法”,“way”意為“途徑”。故D正確。 35.D【精析】句意:馬克在大學(xué)的第一年充滿了興奮 和快樂。本題考查的是非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的用法。非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞在句中作后置定語(yǔ)。不定式作定語(yǔ),表示將要發(fā)生的動(dòng)作;現(xiàn)在分詞作定語(yǔ)表主動(dòng)關(guān)系,表示動(dòng)作正在進(jìn)行;過去分詞作定語(yǔ)表示被修飾的名詞與分詞之間為被動(dòng)關(guān)系,且動(dòng)作已經(jīng)完成。分析題意可知,本句是對(duì)馬克在大學(xué)第一年的描述,這段時(shí)間已經(jīng)過去,且橫線前后兩部分之間為被動(dòng)關(guān)系,所以應(yīng)該使用過去分詞。故D正確。
第二節(jié) 完形填空 參考譯文 我聽說在國(guó)際象棋比賽上會(huì)有許多漂亮的走法。 在決定性比賽中,雖然馬體和那位俄羅斯大師選手旗鼓相當(dāng),但他后還是發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的“王后”處在了被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中。有好幾種辦法可以避開攻擊,因?yàn)椤巴鹾蟆笔侵匾囊粋€(gè)棋子,所以觀眾認(rèn)為馬休自然會(huì)將他的“王后” 移到安全處。 馬休陷入了深思,他用他所有的時(shí)間來考慮這個(gè)局面。他拿起他的“王后”;停頓了一下,然后把它放在了不可思議的格子里——在這個(gè)格子里,王后將會(huì)被三個(gè)敵人中的任何一個(gè)吃掉。 馬休犧牲了他的“王后”,一步不可思議的走法。每個(gè)人都很失望。 然而,俄羅斯選手和其他的選手都意識(shí)到馬休實(shí)際上走了一步很聰明的棋。因?yàn)轱@然不論比賽如何進(jìn)行,這個(gè)俄羅斯選手都將處于失敗的地位。意識(shí)到這點(diǎn),俄羅斯選手承認(rèn)了他的失敗。 當(dāng)觀眾平復(fù)了他們的驚訝——在馬體大膽的走法中,他們把錢拋散到棋盤上。馬休用一種非常不尋常的和大膽的舉動(dòng)贏得了勝利,他通過犧牲“王后”贏了。 對(duì)于我來說,馬體的勝利并不重要,重要的是他通過這種走法打破了常規(guī)思維。他比通常的模式看得更遠(yuǎn),能夠基于并且只是基于他自己的判斷來進(jìn)行這樣一種嘗試。所以不論這次比賽結(jié)果如何,馬休都是個(gè)勝利者。 36.C【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。expe-rience意為“經(jīng)歷”,battle意為“戰(zhàn)斗”,game意為“比賽”,chance意為“機(jī)會(huì)”。根據(jù)上下文可知,本文講述的是在一場(chǎng)國(guó)際象棋比賽中發(fā)生的事情。故C正確。 37.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。player意為“選手”,person意為“人”,winner意為“獲勝者”,enemy意為“敵人”。上文提到馬休參加了一場(chǎng)決定性的象棋比賽,master player表示“大師選手”。故A正確。 38.D【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。support意為“支持”,attack意為“攻擊”,advance意為“前進(jìn)”,escape意為“逃離”。上文提到馬休發(fā)現(xiàn)他的“王后”處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中,后文提到由于“王后”是重要的一個(gè)模子,由此可以推測(cè),此處應(yīng)該用有“躲避,逃脫”意義的詞。故D正確。 39.B【精析】本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。suitable意為“合適的”,powerful意為“有影響力的”,respected意為“受尊敬的”,dangerous意為“危險(xiǎn)的”。根據(jù)常識(shí)可知,“王后”是象棋中有影響力的一個(gè)棋子。故B正確。 40.C【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。check意為“檢查”,fight意為“斗爭(zhēng)”,safety意為“安全性”。defeat意為“打敗”。根據(jù)上下文可知,由于“王后”是重要的一個(gè)棋子,觀眾自然會(huì)認(rèn)為馬休要將他的“王后”移到安全的地方。故C正確。 41.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。condition意為“狀況”,change意為“變化”,piece意為“棋子”,action意為“行動(dòng)”。根據(jù)上下文可知,馬休的“王后”目前處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中,他需要慎重考慮目前這種狀況來挽救棋局。故A正確。 42.C【精析】本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。protected意為“被保護(hù)的”,undisturbed意為“不被打擾的”,unexpected意為“不可思議的”,deserted意為“偏僻的”。由下文可知,馬休犧牲了他的“王后”,由此可以推測(cè),馬休將“王后”放到了不可思議的格子里。故C正確。 43.D【精析】本題考查的是動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。frighten意為“驚嚇”,guard意為“保護(hù)”,discover意為“發(fā)現(xiàn)”,catch意為“抓住”。由下文可知,馬休犧牲了他的“王后”,可以推測(cè),馬休將“王后”放到了不可思議的格子里,王后將會(huì)被三個(gè)敵人中的任何一個(gè)吃掉。故D正確。 44.B【精析】本題考查的是形容詞詞義辨析。comforted意為“安慰的”,disappointed意為“失望的”, delighted意為“高興的”,annoyed意為“氣惱的”。上文提到當(dāng)所有人都以為馬休會(huì)將“王后”移到安全地帶時(shí),他卻犧牲了“王后”,這是一步出乎意料的走法,所以每個(gè)人都很失望。故B正確。 45.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。players意為“選手”,master意為“大師”,crowd意為“人群”,organizer意為“組織者”。根據(jù)上文可知,觀眾們都以為馬休會(huì)將“王后”移到棋盤的安全地帶,因此不可能意識(shí)到馬休走了一步聰明的棋。全文沒有提到組織者。故A正確。 46.A【精析】本題考查的是形容詞的用法。smart意為“聰明的”,wrong意為“錯(cuò)誤的”,free意為“免費(fèi)的”,difficult意為“困難的”。由下文可知 俄羅斯人承認(rèn)了自己的失敗,由此可以推測(cè),馬休這一走法很聰明,很明智。故A正確。 47.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。game意為“比賽”,money意為“錢”,queen意為“王后”,chessboard意為“棋盤”。上文提到馬休的“王后”處于被攻擊的危險(xiǎn)中,馬休犧牲了他的“王后”,這是一步很明智的走法,以及下文俄羅斯人承認(rèn)了自己的失敗可知,接下來不管比賽如何進(jìn)行,結(jié)果都已成定局。故A正確。 48.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。losing意為“失敗的”,favourable意為“有利的”,lead.ing意為“的”,doubtful意為“懷疑的”。由下文可知,俄羅斯人意識(shí)到了自己的失敗,由此可以推測(cè),這個(gè)俄羅斯人將會(huì)失敗。故A正確。 49.D【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。cause意為“原因”,blow意為“打擊”,accident意為“事故”,shock意為“驚訝”。由上文可知,觀眾們看到馬休犧牲了他的“王后”都感到很失望,很驚訝。由此可以推測(cè),人們慢慢地從驚訝中恢復(fù)過來。故D正確。 50.B【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。prize意為“獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)”,victory意為“勝利”,progress意為“進(jìn)步”,attention意為“注意”。由上文可知俄羅斯人承認(rèn)了他的失敗,由此可以推測(cè),馬休贏得了勝利。故B正確。 51.A【精析】本題考查的是動(dòng)詞的用法。won意為“贏得”,made意為“得到”,gained意為“獲得”,earned意為“賺得”。贏得體育比賽用win來表達(dá)。故A正確。 52.A【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。im-portant意為“重要的”,exciting意為“興奮的”,unforgettable意為“不可忘記的”,unclear意為“不明朗的”。由下文可知重要的是馬休通過這種走法打破了常規(guī)思維,由此可以推測(cè),馬休的勝利并不重要。故A正確。 53.B【精析】本題考查的是名詞的辨析。idea意為“主意”,thinking意為“思維”,chess意為“象棋”,training意為“訓(xùn)練”。本句講的是重要的是馬休通過這種走法打破了常規(guī)思維。常規(guī)思維用standard thinking來表示。故B正確。 54.B【精析】本題考查的是動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)辨析。look into意為“調(diào)查”,look further意為“看遠(yuǎn)些”,lookahead意為“往前看”,look outside意為“看外面”。本句意思是他比通常的模式看得更遠(yuǎn),能夠基于并且只是基于他的判斷來進(jìn)行這樣一種嘗試。故B正確。 55.D【精析】本題考查的是對(duì)上下文的理解。came意為“來”,was organized意為“被組織”,wasdesigned意為“被設(shè)計(jì)”,ended意為“結(jié)束”。本句意為不論這次比賽結(jié)果如何,馬休都是個(gè)勝利者。故D正確。
第三部分 閱讀理解 參考譯文 Text1 那是我在紐約瑞芙高中教寫作的第三年。一天,我的一個(gè)學(xué)生,15歲的邁克,給了我一張他媽媽寫的假條,上面解釋了前天他為什么缺課。 “親愛的邁考特先生,前天邁克八十歲的祖母從灑滿咖啡的樓梯上摔了下來,所以我讓邁克待在家里照顧她和他的小妹妹,這樣我好去上班。請(qǐng)?jiān)忂~克的缺課,他以后會(huì)做得很好。另外,他的祖母已經(jīng)好了?!蔽乙娺^邁克在他的書桌上寫這張紙條,但我什么也沒說。我收到的大多數(shù)家長(zhǎng)的請(qǐng)假條都是學(xué)生自己寫的。如果我要處理它們,一天24小時(shí)都會(huì)很忙。寫這些假條的學(xué)生沒有意識(shí)到真正的請(qǐng)假條內(nèi)容通常很枯燥,如“皮特遲到了,因?yàn)轸[鐘沒響”。 學(xué)生們經(jīng)常說任何科目都很難寫夠200字,但是當(dāng)他們編寫請(qǐng)假條時(shí),卻做得很好。所以我決定打印出一些請(qǐng)假條,然后把它們給我班學(xué)生。我說:“請(qǐng)假條本來是要家長(zhǎng)寫的,但是實(shí)際上并不是這樣。是不是,邁克?”學(xué)生們都很緊張地看著我。 “現(xiàn)在,這將是第一堂教學(xué)生寫請(qǐng)假條的課——第一堂練習(xí)寫它們的課,”我繼續(xù)說,每個(gè)人都微笑聽著?!敖裉煳蚁胱屇銈儗懸粡垺畞啴?dāng)給上帝的請(qǐng)假條’或者一張‘夏娃給上帝的請(qǐng)假條’。”學(xué)生們都低下頭,筆尖迅速地在紙上寫著。我第看到學(xué)生們這么專心地寫作。他們吃午飯都是被朋友叫去的。 第二天每個(gè)人都寫好了請(qǐng)假條,接下來我們進(jìn)行了激烈的討論。但是突然校長(zhǎng)出現(xiàn)在門口。他走進(jìn)教室,在教室里面來回走動(dòng),看了看請(qǐng)假條,然后對(duì)我說:“你來我的辦公室。”我的心沉了下去。 當(dāng)我走進(jìn)他的辦公室時(shí),校長(zhǎng)卻走過來握著我的手說:“我只是想告訴你,那節(jié)課,那項(xiàng)任務(wù),不論你在做什么,都很棒。這些孩子的寫作都是大學(xué)水平,謝謝你?!? 56.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“作者如何知道大多數(shù)家長(zhǎng)的請(qǐng)假條都是學(xué)生自己寫的?”根據(jù)第三段后一句“The writers of those notes didn'trealize that honest excuse notes were usuallydull…”可知,家長(zhǎng)寫的請(qǐng)假條內(nèi)容都很枯燥,不會(huì)有很多情節(jié),而邁克交的那張假條有許多情節(jié)。故B為正確答案。 57.D【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“當(dāng)作者發(fā)現(xiàn)這些學(xué)生撒謊時(shí),他做了什么?”根據(jù)第四段第二句“So I decided to type out a dozen excuse notesand gave them to my classes.”和第五段首句 “this will be the first class to study the art of theexcuse note…”可知,作者這樣做的目的是要幫助學(xué)生提高寫作水平。故D為正確答案。 58.A【精析】推理題。題干意為“我們可以推測(cè)當(dāng)邁克缺課時(shí),他在 _________?!备鶕?jù)第三段第一句話“I had seen Mikey writing the note at his desk.I said nothing.”可知邁克給我的那張請(qǐng)假條的內(nèi)容是他自己編的,請(qǐng)假條中的內(nèi)容都不屬實(shí),由此可知BC不正確。D項(xiàng)在文中并未涉及,故A為正確答案。 59.A【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“校長(zhǎng)認(rèn)為作者教學(xué)的方法如何?”通過后一段首句“I just want to……whatever the hell you were doing,was great.Those kids were writing on the college level.”可知,校長(zhǎng)認(rèn)為作者教的這堂課很棒,學(xué)生們的作文都達(dá)到了大學(xué)水平,由此可知他認(rèn)為作者教學(xué)方法很有效。故A為正確答案。 參考譯文 Text 2 你還記得千禧年愿望嗎?還記得世界領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人慶祝2000年時(shí),他們的重要嗎?是到2015年,減少貧窮和饑餓,控制艾滋的傳播,讓孩子們上學(xué),提高公眾健康嗎? 現(xiàn)在,還剩下三年時(shí)間。聯(lián)合國(guó)開發(fā)計(jì)劃署年度事實(shí)和數(shù)據(jù)匯總已經(jīng)顯示:如果我們還像現(xiàn)在這樣,那么能達(dá)到的目標(biāo)是貧窮減少一半,那還是基于一個(gè)國(guó)家——中國(guó)的勝利。在中國(guó),快速增長(zhǎng)的經(jīng)濟(jì)讓幾百萬(wàn)人擺脫了貧困,雖然在非洲、拉丁美洲和前蘇聯(lián),人們變得更加貧窮。 進(jìn)步也只是在部分地區(qū)。東亞應(yīng)該能在2015年達(dá)到它的目標(biāo)——減少一半的饑餓,拉丁美洲和地中海也不會(huì)太差。但是按照現(xiàn)在的速度,非洲和南亞即使再給100年也不會(huì)達(dá)到這個(gè)目標(biāo)。 好消息是這些都能被做到,已經(jīng)有了成功的例子。加納——一個(gè)在上世紀(jì)80年代和90年代早期經(jīng)濟(jì)衰敗的國(guó)家,已經(jīng)找到了擺脫困境的方法,現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)進(jìn)入中等收入國(guó)家之列,比自然資源豐富的尼日利亞更加靠前。對(duì)于剛果、柬埔寨和飽受戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)困擾的伊拉克,以及每一個(gè)被艾滋病感染的南非國(guó)家,則應(yīng)該以毛里求斯和韓國(guó)為榜樣,它們正在穩(wěn)健地向自己的聯(lián)盟會(huì)議的目標(biāo)——給自己的人民帶來更好的生活邁進(jìn)。 60.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“根據(jù)文意,哪個(gè)千禧年愿望將會(huì)實(shí)現(xiàn)?”根據(jù)第二段第一句“Well,three years down the road…the only goallikely to be met is that for reducing poverty by ahalf…… ”可知,可能達(dá)到的目標(biāo)是減少一半的貧窮。故B為正確答案。 61.C【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“世界上哪一部分地區(qū)能達(dá)到減少饑餓的目標(biāo)?”根據(jù)第三段第二句“East Asia should meet its goal of reducinghunger by a half by 2015.”可知,東亞應(yīng)該能在2015年達(dá)到它的目標(biāo)——減少一半的饑餓。故C為正確答案。 62.A【精析】猜測(cè)詞義題。題干意為“什么樣的經(jīng)濟(jì)環(huán)境可以好地表達(dá)“basket case”?根據(jù)第四段第二句“Ghana…h(huán)as managed to find a way outof its difficulties…”可知,在上世紀(jì)80年代和90年代早期加納經(jīng)濟(jì)非常糟糕。故A為正確答案。 63.D【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“在文章中哪個(gè)國(guó)家被當(dāng)作成功發(fā)展的例子提到?”根據(jù)后一段可知,剛果、柬埔寨發(fā)展并不好,故排除A、C,尼日利亞只是用來說明加納發(fā)展迅速,并不是當(dāng)作成功發(fā)展的例子提到,故排除B。后一句提到毛里求斯正在穩(wěn)漸地向自己的聯(lián)盟會(huì)議的目標(biāo)——給自己的人民帶去更好的生活邁進(jìn)。故D為正確答案。 參考譯文 Text 3 想提高你的語(yǔ)言水平,卻沒有時(shí)間去國(guó)外上課?世界上越來越多的大學(xué)正在給學(xué)生提供在自己舒適的家里就能得到網(wǎng)絡(luò)文憑(遠(yuǎn)程教育)的機(jī)會(huì)。這樣的大學(xué)和學(xué)院很多都是被官方認(rèn)可的,這意味著他們已經(jīng)達(dá)到了一定的優(yōu)秀水平。 如果你決定上網(wǎng)絡(luò)語(yǔ)言課程(或者是其他這種類型的課程),請(qǐng)先了解網(wǎng)絡(luò)學(xué)習(xí)的優(yōu)勢(shì)。它通?;ㄙM(fèi)較少,你可以根據(jù)自己的節(jié)奏來學(xué)習(xí),你幾乎可以一天24小時(shí)從世界上任何一臺(tái)電腦上得到資料。但是,你不能和人們面對(duì)面地交流,不能像你在國(guó)外親自上課時(shí)那樣。 此外,去國(guó)外學(xué)習(xí)的優(yōu)勢(shì)還有每天有機(jī)會(huì)了解新的文化,見新朋友,和新朋友練習(xí)使用外語(yǔ),以及去參觀世界上不同的地方。但是,對(duì)于一些學(xué)生來說,去國(guó)外上學(xué)也有許多困難,包括高花費(fèi),在一段時(shí)間內(nèi)離開自己的學(xué)校、家庭或者工作,熟悉新文化和新生活的困難。 不管你怎么做,選擇遠(yuǎn)程教育時(shí)要考慮能否滿足你教育需要和你能夠支付的遠(yuǎn)程教育項(xiàng)目的費(fèi)用。同樣還要考慮,它能否讓你通過文化和教育活動(dòng),而不只是課堂學(xué)習(xí),得到成長(zhǎng)的機(jī)會(huì),這也很重要。 64.D【精析】主旨題。題干意為“作者寫這篇文章的目的是什么?”文章首句提出問題Looking toimprove your language skills,but you don't havethe time to go abroad to attend school?想提高你的語(yǔ)言水平,卻沒有時(shí)間去國(guó)外上課?接著講述了新的學(xué)習(xí)方式——網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程。第二、三段分別講述了網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程和去國(guó)外上學(xué)的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)。 通過這些可以推斷本文的目的是給那些不能去國(guó)外上學(xué)的人介紹一種網(wǎng)絡(luò)課程。故D為正確答案。 65.B【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“網(wǎng)上學(xué)習(xí)一種語(yǔ)言的缺點(diǎn)是什么?”根據(jù)第二段后一句“Howev-or,yon won't get the human interaction of meetingpeople face to face,as you would if you were at·tending a school abroad in person.”可知,通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)學(xué)習(xí)一種語(yǔ)言,我們不能像上課那樣和人們面對(duì)面地互動(dòng)。故B為正確答案。 66.A【精析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干意為“第三段主要討論了的優(yōu)點(diǎn)和缺點(diǎn)?!备鶕?jù)第三段第一句“On the other hand,the advantages of going abroad may…”和第二句However,there may be anumber of disadvantages for some students…”可知,本段主要討論了出國(guó)學(xué)習(xí)的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)。故A為正確答案。 67.A【精析】推理題。題干意為“文章是如何組織的?”綜覽全文,第一段提出主題:網(wǎng)上學(xué)習(xí)。第二、三段分別對(duì)網(wǎng)上學(xué)習(xí)和出國(guó)學(xué)習(xí)的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)進(jìn)行了對(duì)比。后一段表達(dá)了作者自己的思想。由此可推知,本文的結(jié)構(gòu)是提出主題——對(duì)比優(yōu)缺點(diǎn)——得出結(jié)論。故A為正確答案。 參考譯文 Text4 要了解自然界如何適應(yīng)氣候變化,需要了解全世界主要生物周期事件——開花、發(fā)芽、春天第一聲蛙叫。但是不可能任何一個(gè)地方都有生態(tài)學(xué)家,所以人們經(jīng)常會(huì)向非科學(xué)家,有時(shí)也被稱作市民科學(xué)家的人求教。 去年一群科學(xué)家和教育家成立了一個(gè)叫做國(guó)家生態(tài)網(wǎng)絡(luò)的組織。“生態(tài)”是科學(xué)家對(duì)自然事件發(fā)生時(shí)間的研究。 小組的第一個(gè)活動(dòng)是讓科學(xué)家和非科學(xué)家收集每年關(guān)于植物開花和長(zhǎng)葉子的信息。這個(gè)叫做花蕾綻放計(jì)劃的項(xiàng)目收集了來自全美國(guó)的許多常見植物的生長(zhǎng)信息。參加這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的人在項(xiàng)目網(wǎng)站上記錄他們的信息。 “不需要人們一定是科學(xué)家——他們只需要多觀察自己居住區(qū)附近有什么,”負(fù)責(zé)這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的一位科學(xué)家詹尼夫·舒娃說。“當(dāng)我們收集這些信息時(shí),我們會(huì)了解隨著氣候的變化動(dòng)植物有哪些變化?!?
