We’ll show you where kings and queens were crowned(加冕), where they lived and where they are buried. You will see where politicians have shaped the course of history over the years. This walk finishes at the House of Parliament, which you can visit afterwards at a good discount.‎ Canals and Cafes ‎11:00 am Camden Town Underground Camden Town, with its canals, cafes and studios, is the home of many artists, musicians and writers. The high point of the walk is a visit to Camden Lock, London’s most exciting street market. You may like to take a canal trip to London Zoo after this walk.‎ Historic Greenwich ‎2:00 pm Tower Hill Underground The walk begins with the best boat ride in London, five kilometers down the river from Tower Bridge to the Royal Naval College in Greenwich. From there you’ll walk through Greenwich Park past the Naval Museum and other historic buildings to the village itself. We’ll take you down narrow streets with busy shops and markets, back to the riverside where this walk ends.‎ Unexpected London - 23 -‎ ‎3:00pm Tower Hill Underground This walk begins with a ride on Europe’s most modern city railway giving you fine views across the Thames and riversides area. We will get on and off the train for mini-walks to discover the hidden corners of the former port(港口) of London.‎ To go on one of our walks, simply meet your guide in the street outside the underground stations. All these walks last about two hours and end near underground stations. A walk costs ￡4.50(￡3.50 for the elderly).Children under 12 can go for free but they must be with an adult.‎ ‎1. Which walk includes a visit to London’s most exciting street market?‎ A. Canals and Cafes. B. Historic Greenwich.‎ C. Unexpected London. D. 1,000 Years of History.‎ ‎2. What will you do on the Historic Greenwich walk?‎ A. Walk through the Royal Naval College.‎ B. Visit the Naval Museum.‎ C. Meet famous people.‎ D. Take a boat trip.‎ ‎3. How much will a young couple with their 6-year-old kid spend on one of the walks?‎ A. ￡4.50. B. ￡7.00. C. ￡9.00. D. ￡13.50.‎ ‎【答案】1. A 2. D 3. C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇应用文。文章是对四个伦敦周末步行团的路线、时间和费用等相关信息的介绍。‎ ‎【1题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据“Canals and Cafes”部分中的“The high point of the walk is a visit to Camden Lock, London’s most exciting street market.(步行的高潮是去Camden Lock，伦敦最令人激动的街市)”可知，Canals and Cafes包含了去伦敦最令人激动的街市。故选A项。‎ ‎【2题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据Historic Greenwich部分中“The walk begins with the best boat ride in London, five kilometers down the river from Tower Bridge to the Royal Naval College in Greenwich.”可知，参加该步行团的游客会先沿河从伦敦塔桥乘船到格林威治皇家海学院。故选D项。‎ ‎【3题详解】‎ - 23 -‎ 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段最后两句“A walk costs ￡4.50(￡3.50 for the elderly).Children under 12 can go for free but they must be with an adult.”可知，年轻夫妇每人的费用是4.5英镑，而12岁以下的儿童免费，故他们三口之家总共需要花费9英镑。故选C项。‎ ‎【点睛】‎ B A lot of us lose life’s tough battles by starting a frontal attack— when a touch of humor might well enable us to win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who was on his trapped way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum(最后通牒) about the job. Although there was a good reason for Sam’s being late—serious illness at home—he realized that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer. His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.‎ Yes, the boss was. Sam entered the office at 9:35. The place was as quiet as a locker room; everyone was hard at work. Sam’s supervisor came up to him. Suddenly, Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand. “How do you do!” he said, “I’m Sam Maynard. I’m applying for a job, which, I understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm?”‎ The room exploded in laughter, except that the supervisor had to clamp off a smile and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard had saved his job— with the only tool that could win, a laugh.‎ Humor is a most effective, yet frequently ignored, means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no”, criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, it’s the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialogue may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religions tolerance than people in any other form.‎ ‎4. Why was Sam late for his job?‎ A. Because he was seriously ill at home. B. Because he received an ultimatum.‎ C. Because he was busy applying for a new job. D. Because he was caught in a traffic jam.‎ ‎5. The phrase “clamp off” in Paragraph3 means________.‎ A. try to hold back B. pretend to set C. send off D. give out ‎6. Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage?‎ A. Many lose life’s battles for they are always late.‎ - 23 -‎ B. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8:30.‎ C. It wasn’t the first time that Sam came late for his work.‎ D. Humor is the most effective way of solving problems.‎ ‎7. What’s the main idea of this passage?‎ A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humor. B. Humor is important in our lives.‎ C. Early bird can get the worm. D. Humor can solve racial discriminations.‎ ‎【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B ‎【解析】‎ 这是一篇记叙文。记叙了上班族Sam因为遇到了交通阻塞上班迟到，而在此之前他已经收到了迟到的最后通牒，因此这次很可能被辞退。当他在9：35分时走进办公室，他的老板走向了他，突然，Sam强颜欢笑，伸出手来。“你好!”他说。“我是Sam。我正在申请一份工作，据我所知，这份工作在35分钟前才开始招聘。早起的鸟儿有虫吃吗？”于是办公室都爆发出了笑声，他通过一点幽默化解了这次危机。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第一段中Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum (最后通牒) about being late on the job.可知以我一位年轻朋友为例，他在接到关于这份工作的最后通牒后不久就被困在了上班的路上。由此可知，Sam上班迟到是因为遇到了交通阻塞。故选D。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据上文The room exploded in laughter, except that the supervisor had to可知房间里哄堂大笑，因此老板也是只能强忍住笑，走回他的办公室。故可知划线部分单词意思为“努力忍住；抑制住”。A. try to hold back抑制住，忍住；B. pretend to set假装；C. send off寄出；D. give out分发。故选A。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段中Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum (最后通牒) about being late on the job.可知以我的一位年轻朋友为例，他在接到关于这份工作的最后通牒后不久就被困在了上班的路上。由此可推知，这已经不是Sam第一次上班迟到了。故选C。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。根据第一段中A lot of us lose life’s tough battles by starting a frontal attack— when a - 23 -‎ ‎ touch of humor might well enable us to win.可知很多人因为正面攻击而输掉了生活的艰苦战斗，而幽默感可能会让我们赢得胜利。结合文章记叙了上班族Sam因为遇到了交通阻塞上班迟到，而在此之前他已经收到了迟到的最后通牒，因此这次很可能被辞退。当他在9：35分时走进办公室，他的老板走向了他，突然，Sam强颜欢笑，伸出手来。“你好!”他说。“我是Sam。我正在申请一份工作，据我所知，这份工作在35分钟前才开始招聘。早起的鸟儿有虫吃吗？”于是办公室都爆发出了笑声，他通过一点幽默化解了这次危机。由此可知，这篇文章的主旨是幽默在我们的生活中很重要。故选B。‎ C LONDON (Reuters) – Organic fruit, delivered right to the doorstep. That is what Gabriel Gold prefers, and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, the 26-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket buying organic food.‎ ‎“Organic product is always better,” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides(杀虫剂), and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is tasty.” Gold is one of the growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are depending on more like him as they grow their organic food business. But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic product? Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences— but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic product. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand.” The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market,” said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.‎ ‎8. More and more people in Britain are buying organic food because__________.‎ A. they are getting richer.‎ B. they can get the food anywhere.‎ C. they consider the food free of pollution.‎ D. they like home-grown fruit.‎ ‎9. Which of the following statements is TRUE about most organic product sold in Britain?‎ A. It grows indoors throughout the year.‎ B. It is produced outside Britain.‎ - 23 -‎ C. It is grown on family farms.‎ D. It is produced on large farms.‎ ‎10 What is the meaning of the underlined words “the organic trend” in the second paragraph?‎ A. Growing interest in organic food.‎ B. Better quality of organic food C. Rising market for organic food.‎ D. Higher prices of organic food.‎ ‎11. What is the best title for this news story?‎ A. Good qualities of organic food.‎ B. The making of organic food in Britain.‎ C. Organic food— to import or not?‎ D. Organic food—healthy, or just for the wealthy?‎ ‎【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了英国越来越多的人买有机食品，是因为他们认为这样的食物没有污染，并介绍了有机食品背后一些鲜为人知的事实。‎ ‎【8题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段前两句“Organic product is always better,” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides (杀虫剂),…”可知，Gold说有机食品总是更好的，这种食物中没有杀虫剂，由此可知越来越多的英国人买有机食品是因为他们认为这种食品没有污染。故选C项。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第二句“And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand.(英国大约四分之三的有机食品不是当地产的，而是进口以满足增长的需求)”可知，英国市场上销售的多数有机产品不是在英国生产的，故选B项。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 短语猜测题。根据划线词后面一个分句“supermarkets across Britain are depending on more like him as they grow their organic food business(在英国超市的有机生意快速增长时，他们依靠更多像他这样的人)”可知，划线词所在句“Gold is one of the growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend”意为“Gold是对购买有机食品感兴趣的众多购买者之一”，所以划线词“the ‎ - 23 -‎ ‎ organic trend”意为“对有机食品日益增长的兴趣”。故选A项。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章首先提出英国越来越多的人购买有机食品，结合第二段中“But how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic product?(但是又多少购买者真的知道他们买的是什么，他们为什么愿意付更高的价钱买有机食品)”可知，文章接着介绍了关于有机食品背后的一些鲜为人知的事实，所以D项“有机食品——健康还是仅仅针对有钱人？”适合作为文章标题，故选D项。‎ ‎【点睛】‎ D The American newspaper has been around for about three hundred years. In 1721, the printer James Franklin, Benjamin’s older brother, started the New England Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper. He filled his paper with stories of adventure, articles on art, on famous people, and on all sorts of political subjects.‎ Three centuries after the appearance of Franklin’s Courant, few believe that newspapers in their present printed from will remain alive for long. Newspaper companies are losing advertisers(广告商)，readers, market value, and in some cases, their sense of purpose at a speed that would not have been imaginable just several years ago. The chief editor(主编) of the Times said recently, “At places where they gather, editors ask one another, ‘How are you?’, as if they have just come out of the hospital or a lost law case.” An article about the newspaper appeared on the website of the Guandian, under the headline “NOT DEAD YET.”‎ Perhaps not, but the rise of the Internet, which has made the daily newspaper look slow and out of step with the world, has brought about a real sense of death. Some American newspapers have lost 42% of their market value in the past three years. The New York Times Company has seen its stock(股票) drop by 54% since the end of 2004, with much of the loss coming in the past year. A manager at Deutsche Bank suggested that stock-holders sell off their Times stock. The Washington Post Company has prevented the trouble only by changing part of its business to education; its testing and test-preparation service now brings in at least half the company’s income.‎ ‎12. What can we learn about the New England Courant?‎ A. It is mainly about the stock market.‎ B. It marks the beginning of the American newspaper.‎ - 23 -‎ C. It remains a successful newspaper in America.‎ D. It carries articles by political leaders.‎ ‎13. What can we infer about the newspaper editors?‎ A. They often accept readers’ suggestions.‎ B. They care a lot about each other’s health.‎ C. They stop doing business with advertisers.‎ D. They face great difficulties in their business.‎ ‎14. Which of the following found a new way for its development?‎ A. The Washington Post.‎ B. The Guardian.‎ C. The New York Times.‎ D. New England Courant.‎ ‎15. How does the author seem to feel about the future of newspapers?‎ A. Satisfied.‎ B. Hopeful.‎ C. Worried.‎ D. Surprised.‎ ‎【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章给我们呈现了报业从起源到现在面临的困境——受到更多先进快捷媒体比如internet的冲击的现状。作者通过回顾和现状事实的描述，也表达了自己的担忧：未来报业何去何从？这篇文字设计上看，也没有更多的难度。总体文字流畅，事例逻辑表达完整。从问题的设计方面看，也没有过多的迷惑度。‎ ‎【12题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In 1721, the printer James Franklin, Benjamin’s older brother, started the New England Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper.( 1721年，印刷工詹姆斯·富兰克林，本杰明的哥哥，创办了《新英格兰新闻报》，这就是我们今天可能认识到的真正的报纸。)”可知，《新英格兰新闻报》标志着美国报纸的开始。故选B。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ - 23 -‎ 推理判断题。通过全文可知旨在说明报纸存在危机。尤其是文章第二段的编辑之间的谈话部分。可以推断出报纸编辑在工作中面临很大困难。故选D。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The Washington Post Company has prevented the trouble only by changing part of its business to education; its testing and test-preparation service now brings in at least half the company’s income.(《华盛顿邮报》只是通过将部分业务转向教育，才避免了这种麻烦;它的考试和备考服务现在为公司带来了至少一半的收入。)”可知，《华盛顿邮报》为它的发展找到了新的途径答案。故选A。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 推断判断题。通读全文，作者在列举报纸业所面临的种种问题，可以判断作者对此很担忧。故选C。‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ We live in a sweet world. The average American kids consume more than 20 teaspoons of sugar per day. ___16___ We all know that too much sugar isn’t good for us. But do we know it can be poisonous?

Scientists often use mice for research because they have something similar to humans. Findings from this study show negative effects that are not as obvious as weight gains or heart problems. ___19___‎ Different types of sugar have different effects on the human body. Some of the sugar we consume comes from foods we might expect — candy, soda f and cookies. ___20___ To help cut down on extra sugar consumption, nutrition experts suggest looking at the ingredients on food packages.

This percentage is equal to a healthy human diet along with three cans of soda daily.‎ G. But large amounts of sugar can cause long-term health problems and even shorten lives.‎ ‎【答案】16. D 17. B 18. F 19. G 20. A ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇记叙文。研究人员通过以老鼠为实验对象所进行的研究发现，吃糖过多会严重影响人们的健康，因此告诫人们要合理控制糖的摄入，保证饮食的健康。‎ ‎【16题详解】‎ 本段的第一句话表明糖在我们日常生活中的常见程度，空前的一句话从美国孩子每天糖的食用量对此予以说明。D项中的adults与上文中的kids形成对比。故选D项。‎ ‎【17题详解】‎ 根据“ But do we know it can be poisonous”以及 “…used mice to conduct a study on the negative effects of sugar”可知，空处应是研究结果，故B项符合语境。‎ ‎【18题详解】‎ F项中的This percentage与上文中的 “ the diet containing 25% more sugar”在逻辑上具有一致性。故选F项。‎ ‎【19题详解】‎ 这项研究结果表明（吃糖对健康的）负面影响不像体重增加或心脏病那么明显，但吃大量的糖会引起长期的健康问题，甚至缩短寿命。G项与上文联系紧密，语意连贯，故选G项。‎ ‎【20题详解】‎ 文章最后一段提到我们食用的一些糖包含在我们能预料到的食物中，且根据下文中的 “ nutrition experts suggest looking at the ingredients on food packages”可知，此处主要讲我们食用的很多糖是隐藏起来的，A项符合语境。‎ 第二部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 （共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ My wife, Jeannine, and I had always wanted to live somewhere else in the world.
