We were asked to “ ‎37 a disability” for several hours one Sunday. Some members, 38 , chose to use wheelchairs. Others wore sound-blocking earplugs（耳塞）or blindfolds（眼罩）.‎ Just sitting in the wheelchair was a 39 experience. I had never considered before how 40 it would be to use one. As soon as I sat down, my 41 made the chair begin to roll. Its wheels were not 42 . Then I wondered where to put my 43 . It took me quite a while to get the metal footrest into 44 . I took my first uneasy look at what was to be my only means of 45 for several hours.

Take my family’s last vacation. It was my six-year-old son’s winter break form school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had meetings in New York，So I had to get back. But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.‎ The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged—okay, ordered—them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?‎ Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.‎ I've made living looking for the best deals and exposing （揭露） the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.‎ I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth. I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.‎ ‎56. Why did Delta give the author's family credits?‎ A. They took a later flight. B. They had early bookings.‎ C. Their flight had been delayed. D. Their flight had been cancelled.‎ ‎57. What can we learn about the author?‎ A. She rarely misses a good deal. B. She seldom makes a compromise.‎ C. She is very strict with her children. D. She is interested in cheap products.‎ ‎58. What does the author do?‎ A. She's a teacher. B. She's a housewife. ‎ C. She's a media person. D. She's a businesswoman.‎ ‎59. What does the author want to tell us?‎ A. How to expose bad tricks. B. How to reserve airline seats.‎ C. How to spend money wisely. D. How to make a business deal.‎ B They baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert （警觉）. Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze（凝视） starts to lose its focus — until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?‎ Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise （同样地） when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.‎ ‎60. The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby’s__.‎ A. sense of hearing B. sense of sight C. sense of touch D. sense of smell ‎61. Babies are sensitive to the change in______.‎ A. the size of cards B. the colour of pictures C. the shape of patterns D. the number of objects ‎62. Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?‎ A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment. B. To see how babies recognize sounds.‎ C. To carry their experiment further. D. To keep the babies’‎ ‎ interest.‎ ‎63. Where does this text probably come from?‎ A. Science fiction. B. Children’s literature. C. An advertisement. D. A science report.‎ C It happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was, in his words, “a brilliantly （精彩地）written book”. However, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.‎ And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t. In the World Book Day’s “Report on Guilty Secrets”, Dreams From My Father is at number 9. The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading, and as I’m not one to lie too often (I’d hate to be caught out), I’ll admit here and now that I haven’t read the entire top ten. But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one, George Orwell’s 1984. I think it’s really brilliant.‎ The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky (I haven’t read him, but haven’t lied about it either) and Herman Melville.‎ Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in–depth!‎ But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J. K. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella (ah, the big sellers, in other words). Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story (I’ll come clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).‎ ‎64. How did the author find his friend a book liar?‎ A. By judging his manner of speaking. B. By looking into his background.‎ C. By mentioning a famous name. D. By discussing the book itself.‎ ‎65. Which of the following is a “guilty secret” according to the World Book Day report?‎ A. Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list. B. 42% of people pretended to have read 1984.‎ C. The author admitted having read 9 books. D. Dreams From My Father is hardly read.‎ ‎66. By lying about reading, a person hopes to .‎ A. control the conversation B. appear knowledgeable C. learn about the book D. make more friends ‎67. What is the author’s attitude to 58% of readers?‎ A. Favorable. B. Uncaring C. Doubtful D. Friendly D The National Gallery Description:‎ The National Gallery is the British national art museum built on the north side of Trafalgar Square in London. It houses a diverse collection of more than 2,300 examples of European art ranging from 13th-century religious paintings to more modern ones by Renoir and Van Gogh.

The word business also refers to an organization that provides these goods and services. Most businesses seek to make a profit（利润）— that is, they aim to achieve income that is more than the costs of operating the business. 71 Commonly called nonprofits, these organizations are primarily nongovernmental service providers. 72 ‎ Business management is a term used to describe the techniques of planning, direction, and control of the operations of a business. 73 One is the establishment（制定） of broad basic policies with respect to production; sales; the purchase of equipment, materials and supplies; and accounting. 74 The third relates to the establishment of standards of work in all departments. Direction is concerned primarily with supervision（监管）and guidance by the management in authority. 75 ‎ A. Control includes the use of records and reports to compare actual work with the set standards for work.‎ B. In this connection there is the difference between top management and operative management.‎ C. Examples of nonprofit business include such organizations as social service agencies and may hospitals.‎ D. However, some businesses only seek to earn enough to cover their operating costs.‎ E.

Planning in business management has three main aspects.‎ 第II卷 注意事项：‎ 用0.5毫米黑色笔迹的签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。‎ 第四部分 写作（共两页，满分35分）‎ 第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ 假定英语课上老师要求同桌中间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处，每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加：把缺词处叫个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎ 2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ I hardly remember my grandmother.

I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.‎ I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth. I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.‎ ‎56. Why did Delta give the author's family credits?‎ A.

She is quiet but alert （警觉）. Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. ‎ She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze（凝视） starts to lose its focus — until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?‎ Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise （同样地） when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.‎ ‎60. The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby’s__.‎ A. sense of hearing B. sense of sight C. sense of touch D. sense of smell ‎61. Babies are sensitive to the change in______.‎ A. the size of cards B. the colour of pictures C. the shape of patterns D. the number of objects ‎62.

To keep the babies’ interest.‎ ‎63. Where does this text probably come from?‎ A. Science fiction. B. Children’s literature. C. An advertisement. D. A science report.‎ ‎60.【答案】B ‎【解析】根据文章第一段she stares it carefully. Her gaze starts to lose its focus可知，本段是对孩子的视觉实验，故选B。‎ ‎61.【答案】D ‎【解析】根据文章第二段Babies pay more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, three to two可知D项正确。‎ ‎62.【答案】C ‎【解析】根据文章第一段得知对孩子视力进行实验，接下来用鼓对孩子的听力继续实验，故选C。‎ ‎63.【答案】D ‎【解析】综观全文，这是一篇医学实验报告，故选D。‎ C It happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was, in his words, “a brilliantly （精彩地）written book”.‎ ‎ However, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.‎ And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t. In the World Book Day’s “Report on Guilty Secrets”, Dreams From My Father is at number 9. The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading, and as I’m not one to lie too often (I’d hate to be caught out), I’ll admit here and now that I haven’t read the entire top ten. But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one, George Orwell’s 1984. I think it’s really brilliant.‎ The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky (I haven’t read him, but haven’t lied about it either) and Herman Melville.‎ Asked why they lied, the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in–depth!‎ But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J. K. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella (ah, the big sellers, in other words). Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story (I’ll come clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).‎ ‎64. How did the author find his friend a book liar?‎ A. By judging his manner of speaking. B. By looking into his background.‎ C. By mentioning a famous name. D. By discussing the book itself.‎ ‎65. Which of the following is a “guilty secret” according to the World Book Day report?‎ A. Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list. B. 42% of people pretended to have read 1984.‎ C. The author admitted having read 9 books. D. Dreams From My Father is hardly read.‎ ‎66. By lying about reading, a person hopes to .‎ A. control the conversation B. appear knowledgeable C. learn about the book D. make more friends ‎67. What is the author’s attitude to 58% of readers?‎ A. Favorable. B. Uncaring C. Doubtful D. Friendly ‎64.【答案】D ‎【解析】根据文章第一段A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was ,in his words, “a brilliant written book”. However, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all.然后他继续以一种能暗示出他对奥巴马背景一无所知的方式继续谈论奥巴马，可知作者跟他的朋友谈论有关奥巴马的那本书时，发现朋友对奥巴马的背景一无所知，这暗示出朋友其实并没有读过这本书，他对奥巴马的背景一点都不知晓，故选D。‎ ‎65.【答案】B ‎【解析】本题的关键词是guilty secret，定位第二、三段。根据文章第三段可知，不像百分之四十二的人那样，我很高兴地说，我读过排在第一位的George Orwell’‎ s 1984。由此可知，作者读过这本书，而百分之四十二的人却没读过。故选B。‎ ‎66.【答案】B ‎【解析】根据文章第四段“当被问及为什么撒谎的时候，最普遍的理由是想给正在说话的人留下深刻的印象”可知，人们之所以选择撒谎是想让对方觉得自己知识渊博，从而给对方留下一个好的印象，故B正确。‎ ‎67.【答案】C ‎【解析】根据第五段话最后一句“我很惊讶58%的人说他们从来没这么做过”，表明作者态度的词是astonished。选项中与此词意义接近的答案便是C项。‎ D The National Gallery Description:‎ The National Gallery is the British national art museum built on the north side of Trafalgar Square in London.

The word business also refers to an organization that provides these goods and services. Most businesses seek to make a profit（利润）— that is, they aim to achieve income that is more than the costs of operating the business. 71 Commonly called nonprofits, these organizations are primarily nongovernmental service providers. 72 ‎ Business management is a term used to describe the techniques of planning, direction, and control of the operations of a business. 73 One is the establishment（制定） of broad basic policies with respect to production; sales; the purchase of equipment, materials and supplies; and accounting. 74 The third relates to the establishment of standards of work in all departments. Direction is concerned primarily with supervision（监管）and guidance by the management in authority. 75 ‎ A. Control includes the use of records and reports to compare actual work with the set standards for work.‎ B. In this connection there is the difference between top management and operative management.‎ C. Examples of nonprofit business include such organizations as social service agencies and may hospitals.‎ D. However, some businesses only seek to earn enough to cover their operating costs.‎ E. The second aspect relates to the application of these policies by departments.‎ F. In the theory of business management, organization has two main aspects.‎ G. Planning in business management has three main aspects.‎ ‎71.【答案】D ‎【解析】根据后文Commonly called nonprofits, these organizations are primarily nongovernmental service providers可知，被普遍认为是非营利组织。所以，上文应该与其内容一致。D项：然而，一些公司只挣足够的钱来满足基本的经营费用。这说明它们不赚钱。这与后文内容相符。此处however也是关键词，其前讲的是盈利活动，其后是非盈利公司活动。‎ ‎72.【答案】C ‎【解析】前文提到非盈利公司，下文举例说明哪些是非盈利组织。‎ ‎73.【答案】G ‎【解析】第二段的第一句是概括句，接下来从三方面进行分别叙述the techniques of planning ‎74.【答案】E ‎【解析】根据上文“经营管理计划三个方面”可知，这里谈的是第二方面。下文是the third…。‎ ‎75.【答案】A ‎【解析】根据前文可知三个方面讲了两个方面，接下来是第三个方面，即control of the operation of a business。故选A。‎ 第II卷 注意事项：‎ 用0.5毫米黑色笔迹的签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。‎ 第四部分 写作（共两页，满分35分）‎ 第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ 假定英语课上老师要求同桌中间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处，每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加：把缺词处叫个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎ 2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ I hardly remember my grandmother.

In a fact, he even scared my classmates away during they came over to play or do homework with me. However, he was the gentlest man I have never known.‎ ‎1.【答案】holding----hold ‎【解析】此处used to意为：过去常常，to是不定式符号，故用动词原形。‎ ‎2.【答案】passes----passed ‎【解析】根据前面was可知为一般过去时态。‎ ‎3.【答案】much----well/ clearly ‎【解析】根据句意可知，我很清楚记得我的爷爷。此处very much是多的意思，不合题意。‎ ‎4.【答案】shoulder----shoulders ‎【解析】根据常理，人有两个肩膀，故用复数。‎ ‎5.【答案】toward----to/ into ‎【解析】根据句意，这里指：黑胡子变成白胡子。所以用短语turn to或turn into。‎ ‎6.【答案】himself----him ‎【解析】句意：他的深沉的声音把他和别人区别开来。故用him。‎ ‎7.【答案】he前加and ‎【解析】根据句中结构可知He had a deep voice…和he was strong and powerful是并列关系，故用and连接。‎ ‎8.【答案】去掉fact前a ‎【解析】固定短语：in fact。‎ ‎9.【答案】during----when ‎【解析】during为介词，后不能接句子；应用when这个连词引导时间状语从句。‎ ‎10.【答案】never----ever ‎【解析】语义错误。根据句意：他是我认识的最温柔的人。可知将never改为ever。‎ 第二节 书面表达（满分25分）‎ 假定你是李华。请你给笔友Peter写封信，告诉他你叔叔李明将去他所在城市开会，带去他想要的那幅中国画，同时询问他是否可以接机。信中还需说明：‎ 李明：高个子，戴眼镜 航班号：CA985‎ 到达：8月6日上午11:30‎ 注意：1. 词数100左右；2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3. 开头语和结束语已为你写好。‎ ‎【One Possible Version】‎ Dear Peter,‎ How are you doing?‎ I’m writing to tell you that my uncle Li Ming is going to your city for a conference, and I’ve asked him to bring you the Chinese painting you’ve asked for before.‎ Also, I’d like you to do me a favor.
