You should have a more active life.‎ A. how B. when C. where D. what ‎【答案】C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【详解】考查名词性从句。句意：——我比较喜欢星期天把自己关在家里整天听音乐。——这就是我不同意的所在。你应该有一个更积极的生活。因为agree是一个不及物动词，从句I don’t agree不缺少成份，根据句意这里用where的意思就是“那就是我不同以你的地方”。故选C。‎ ‎5.While you are traveling abroad, attention should be paid to _______ you _______.‎ A. preventing; from being fined B. prevent; from fining C. prevent; from being fined D. preventing; from fining ‎【答案】A ‎【解析】‎ ‎【详解】考查非谓语动词和固定短语。句意：在国外旅行时，关注点应该是防止自己被罚款。pay attention to是固定短语，意为注意….,to是介词，后面动词必须用动名词作宾语；prevent sb from doing 同样也是固定短语，意为阻止某人做….,from同样也是介词，后面同样需要动名词作宾语，根据句意，阻止你自己被罚款，要表示被动，故选A项。‎ ‎【点睛】解非谓语动词，最关键的是弄清楚所选非谓语动词在句中作什么成分。比如该题，我们根据两个固定短语，可以知道两个地方需要选的非谓语动词都是作介词宾语，介词的宾语只能用动名词，结合题意，第二空还需要使用被动形式，故选A项。‎ ‎6.Since the present situation is very complex, I think it will take me some time to _____ its reality.‎ A. come across B. figure out C. look through D. put off ‎【答案】B ‎【解析】‎ ‎【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：由于目前形式比较复杂，我认为要花费一些时间来弄清楚它的事实。A. come across偶遇；B. figure out弄清楚；C. look through浏览；D. put off推迟。根据句意，形式复杂，所以要花点时间来弄清楚搞明白它的真实情况。figure out意为弄清楚，搞明白，符合题意。故选B项。‎ ‎7.Unfortunately, when we dropped in, Mr Smith ______ for Indonesia to rescue the injured people there, so he could spare little time for a few words.‎ A. has just left B. just left C. had just left D. was just leaving ‎【答案】D ‎【解析】‎ ‎【详解】考查时态。句意：不幸的是，当我们造访时，Smith先生正要动身去印度尼西亚去救那些伤员，所以他几乎没能抽点跟我们讲几句话。根据句意，Smith先生几乎没能抽时间跟我们讲几句话，说明他当时还没有离开，只是即将离开，正要离开，所以选择过去进行时表示过去即将，正要做….。故选D项。‎ ‎8.The son asks his dad why the chameleon(变色龙) can ______ the color of its background.‎ A take on B. take up C. take in D. take over ‎【答案】A ‎【解析】‎ ‎【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：儿子问父亲，为什么变色龙能够呈现它背景的颜色。A. take on呈现；B. take up占据；C. take in吸收； D. take over接管。变色龙可以随着背景的颜色而改变自身的颜色，从而使自己呈现跟背景一样的颜色。take on意为呈现，符合题意，故选A项。‎ ‎9.The country has sent up three manned spacecraft, the most recent ___ at the end of last March.‎ A. has been launched B. being launched C. having been launched D. to be launched ‎【答案】C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【详解】考查独立主格结构。句意：这个国家已经发射了三个载人宇宙飞船，最近的一次是在去年三月底。根据句子结构判断，这里是独立主格结构，不是另外单独的分句，故排除A项。独立主格结构中，非谓语动词launch表示的动作跟它的独立主语the most recent（manned spacecraft）是被动关系，结合题意是去年就发射了的，已经发生了的，B项表示正在被发射，D项表示将要被发射，均不符合题意，故选C项。‎ ‎10.- What about my career prospects? Is my work contract ___________?‎ ‎- I think so. If we’re satisfied with you, you can become our permanent worker.‎ A. qualified B. distinctive C. renewable D. promising ‎【答案】C ‎【解析】‎ ‎【详解】考察形容词词义辨析。句意：-我的职业前景怎样？我的合同可以续签吗？-我认为可以。如果我们满意你的话，你可以成为我们的固定工。A. qualified合乎资格的；B. distinctive独特的；C. renewable（合同、协议）可延长有效期的；D. promising有前途的。根据语境，前者是在询问工作合同是否可以续签，renewable意为（合同、协议）可延长有效期的，符合题意，故选C项。‎ 第二节：完形填空 (共20小题；每小题1分, 满分20分)‎ Dear Laura,‎ I just heard you tell an old story of gift giving and unselfish love in your program.

As you know, the party will be held at the Green Vale Country Club, which we have reserved between 7:30 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. on the evening of December 21st. I’ve received replies from almost all of you confirming attendance, but if you haven’t let me know yet, please do so in the next day or two. Tickets for all employees have been covered by the company.‎ The Green Vale manager has asked me to explain one or two things to those of you who have not been there before. Basically, there is sufficient parking space for only 100 vehicles, so they would like to ask those of you planning to drive, try to car-pool as much as possible. Also, the number of lockers available is small, so guests should try to keep belongings to a minimum.‎ Thanks in advance,‎ Annette To: Annette Derringer aderringer@belway.com From: Kyle Berwick Date: Nov 28‎ Subject: Year-end party ‎-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------‎ Annette,‎ This is to let you know that I will be able to attend the year-end party at the Green Vale Country Club on the 21st although I don’t think I will be able to arrive before 8:30. I was wondering if it would also be possible to bring a couple of guests. I know it is a bit of a last minute request, but my brother and his wife are planning to visit us at that time, and I know they’d love to see the Green Vale. If it is not a problem, then can you let me know how much I should pay for their tickets? Also, assuming this is OK, I was planning to drive down in a single car, to reduce the need for parking and also to allow us to keep our belongings in the car.‎ I have a couple of days off before the party, but I’ll be in my office until the 17th, so could you get back to me before then? Thanks a lot,‎ Kyle ‎31. What’s the main purpose of the memorandum?‎ A. To explain the arrangement for an event.‎ B. To encourage people to travel by car.‎ C. To ask for help arranging a party.‎ D. To thank people for attending the party.‎ ‎32. Why does Kyle Berwick write to Annette Derringer?

Which of Kyle’s points is NOT mentioned in the memo?‎ A. Payment for extra guests. B. Storage of personal items.‎ C. Parking restrictions . D. Timing for the evening.‎ ‎34. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A. The manager of the Green Vale doesn’t hope they go there by car.‎ B. Annette takes charge of the arrangement of year-end party.‎ C. They can take as many belongings as they can with them when going to the Green Vale.‎ D. Kyle Berwick won’t bring the guests to go to the party if he has to pay the tickets.‎ ‎【答案】31. A 32. D 33. A 34. B ‎【解析】‎ ‎【分析】‎ 这是两则信件，一则是公司发的备忘录，提醒员工关于年会的相关事宜，一则是职员的回信，咨询一些额外事件。‎ ‎【31题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。由整个备忘录以及第一段的第一句话“This is just a quick note to let you all know the arrangements for next month’s year-end party.”可知，这个备忘录是让大家知道下个月举行的年会的安排。相当于跟大家解释一项活动的安排，故选A项。‎ ‎【32题详解】‎ 推理判断题。结合第二封信件里的“I know it is a bit of a last minute request, but my brother and his wife are planning to visit us at that time, and I know they’d love to see the Green Vale.”可知，Kyle Berwick知道这个请求有点晚，但是他的兄弟和妻子在那个时候来，他们也想去。所以，可以判断，他是在询问是否可以带客人来。故选D项。‎ ‎【33题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据Kyle Berwick的信件中的“If it is not a problem, then can you let me know how much I should pay for their tickets?”可知，他询问道，如果可以带客人过来，他们的票钱是多少。结合上面的备忘录里的“s you know, the party will be held at the Green Vale Country Club, which we have reserved between 7:30 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. on the evening of December 21st.”，“Tickets for all employees have been covered by the company.”以及“Basically, there is sufficient parking space for only 100 vehicles, so they would like to ask those of you planning to drive, try to car-pool as much as possible. Also, the number of lockers available is small, so guests should try to keep belongings to a minimum.”可知，备忘录提及了晚会时间：7；30—10:00；员工票已经由公司支付；停车只可供100‎ 辆车，大家开车的最好拼车；储物柜数量有限，所以带的东西尽量最小化。唯独没有提到如果另外带客人来，票价会是多少。故选A项。‎ ‎【34题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据备忘录里的内容，the Green Vale方面建议开车去的人最好拼车，并没有提及经理不允许开车，所以排除A项；备忘录是Annette发的，而且她希望其他人能告知她是否能够确认参加，可以推断相关事务是由她来负责；由于the Green Vale储物柜数量有限，所以建议大家尽量少带东西，而不是多带，所以排除C项。由第二则信函可知，Kyle Berwick愿意就另外邀请的客人而付门票，不是不愿意，所以排除D项。故选B项。‎ ‎【点睛】可以用排除法解推理判断题。比如第四小题，根据第一则信函，the Green Vale方面建议开车去的人最好拼车，并没有提及经理不允许开车，所以排除A项；备忘录是Annette发的，而且她希望其他人能告知她是否能够确认参加，可以推断相关事务是由她来负责；由于the Green Vale储物柜数量有限，所以建议大家尽量少带东西，而不是多带，所以排除C项。由第二则信函可知，Kyle Berwick愿意就另外邀请的客人而付门票，不是不愿意，所以排除D项。故选B项。‎ B We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.‎ ‎“You could win prizes,” our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing, “The first prize is ten dollars. You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster.”‎ We studied the board critically. Some of us looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard, rocking the sheets to the right or left while we conjured up our designs. Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. We had plans for that ten-dollar grand prize, each and every one of us. I’m going to spend mine on candies, one hopeful would announce, while another practiced looking serious, wise and rich.‎ Everyone in the class made a poster. Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins, while others used nothing but colored construction paper. Some of us used big designs, and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one corner of our poster and let the space draw the viewer’s attention to it. Some of us would wander past the good students’ desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. It was yet another grown-up trick of the sort they seemed especially fond of, making all of us believe we had a fair chance, and then always—always—rewarding the same old winners.‎ I believe I drew a sailboat, but I can’t say that with any certainty. I made it. I admired it. I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen，and then I turned it in.‎ Minutes passed.‎ No one came along to give me the grand prize, and then someone distracted me, and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.‎ I was still sitting at my desk, thinking, What poster? when the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.‎ ‎35. What was the teacher’s requirement for the poster?‎ A. It must appear in time.‎ B. It must be done in class.‎ C. It must be done on a construction sheet.‎ D. It must include the words on the blackboard.‎ ‎36.

It is called multitasking, and it takes many forms. As one example, why go out to lunch when you can eat at your desk, talk to a client on the phone, scroll through your e-mail, and scan a memo simultaneously?‎ ‎ And why simply work out on treadmill (单调的工作) when you could be watching television and talking on a portable phone at the same time? What a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment --- three activities for the time commitment of one! Ah, such efficiency. No wonder those who turn “to do” lists into a time-management art form tend to boast (自夸): “Look, me, how many things I can accomplish at once. If I’m this busy, I must be important.”‎ Yet last week the New York Assembly struck a blow against multitasking, at least behind the wheel, when it approved a bill banning drivers in the state from using handheld cellular phones. Too dangerous, the assembly said, citing research showing that drivers are four times more likely to have a collision when they are talking on a cellphone.‎ No one can argue against using time effectively. But accompanying the supposed gains are losses. Consider the woman out for an early-morning walk in a suburban neighborhood. She strides briskly, head down, cellphone clamped to her ear, chattering (喋喋不休) away, oblivious of the birds and flowers and glorious sunshine. Did the walk have any value? ‎ More than a decade ago, long before multi-tasking became a word in everyday use, a retired professor of theology(神学) in Indiana with whom I corresponded (通信) made a case for what might be called uni-tasking — the old-fashioned practice of doing one thing at a time. ‎ Offering the simplest example, he said, “When you wash the dishes, wash the dishes.” Good advice, I’ve found, whatever the task.‎ Perhaps, too, the ban on phoning-on-the-road will even spark a move away from other forms of dual activity. Who can tell? It could mark the first step in a welcome reconsideration of what really constitutes productivity and accomplishment.‎ ‎40. The author thinks that multitasking has become one of the great measures of self-worth because ________.‎ A. it helps people to use time effectively B. it makes people feel they are important C. it means the ability to do several things at once D. people worship speed and desire ‎41. The bill approved by the New York Assembly is mentioned in the second paragraph in order to ________.‎ A. demonstrate the danger of multitasking B. show the high efficiency of multitasking C. introduce the legislation system in America D. argue against using time effectively ‎42. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “oblivious” in the third paragraph?‎ A. serious B. absorbed deeply ‎ C. not noticing D. forgetting ‎43. We learn from the passage that uni-tasking is ________.‎ A the new fashion for 21-century Americans B. accepted by most residents in Indiana C created by a retired professor of theology D. the traditional act of doing one thing at once ‎44. In the eyes of the author, multi-tasking ________.‎ A. could not be avoided in this fast-changing age B. should be taken the place of by uni-tasking C. robs people of time to focus and reflect D. should not become a word in everyday use ‎【答案】40.

It seems as if every day, some new articles come out about a new discovery about this or that. For example, water is bad for you, or good for you. The answer depends on which scientific study has just come out. People cannot decide which food items are healthy, how pyramids were constructed, and why dinosaurs disappeared. When we look for answers we sometimes can believe persuasive researches and scientists. But how trustworthy are they really? Here are two examples of scientific hoaxes (骗局).‎ As far back as 1726, Johann Beringer was fooled by his fellow scientists into thinking he had made ‎ an amazing discovery. The fossils of spiders, lizards, and even birds with the name of God written on them in Hebrew were unlike anything that had been found before. He wrote several papers on them and was famous for those only to have it revealed that they were planted by jealous colleagues to ruin his reputation.‎ When an early human being was discovered in 1912, scientists at this time were wild with excitement over the meaning it had for the theory of evolution. There were hundreds of papers about this Piltdown man over the next fifty years until it was finally discovered to be a complex hoax. The skull (头骨) of a man had been mixed with the jawbone of an orangutan (猩猩) to make the ape (猿) man.‎ The next time you read the exciting new findings of a study of the best scientist, do not automatically assume that it is true. Even qualified people can get it wrong. Though we certainly should not ignore scientific research, we do need to take it with a grain of salt. Just because it is accepted as the truth today does not mean it will still be trustworthy tomorrow.‎ ‎45. What is the reason why Johann Beringer was fooled?‎ A. His fellow scientists wanted to make fun of him.‎ B. His workmates are eager to become famous too.‎ C. These scientists made a mistake because of carelessness.‎ D. His colleagues was jealous of him and did so to destroy his fame.‎ ‎46. The excited scientists thought that this Piltdown man ________.‎ A. was in fact a complex hoax B. was a great scientific invention C. contributed to the theory of evolution D. had the skull like that of an ape ‎47. What does the underlined phrase “with a grain of salt” in Paragraph 4 mean?‎ A. Happily. B. Generally.‎ C. Doubtfully. D. Completely.‎ ‎48. What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. Hebrew is probably a kind of language.‎ B. Truths of science will never be out of time.‎ C. People believe scientists because they are persuasive.‎ D. We are advised to believe famous scientists.‎ ‎【答案】45. D 46. C 47. C 48. A ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。每天报纸上都会出现一些关于科学新发现的文章，那么这些文章的可信度究竟是多少呢？在文中作者通过几个例子向读者说明：新发现有时候只是一种骗局，或者是一种假象，所以我们对待任何事情都要持有一种怀疑的态度。‎ ‎【45题详解】‎ D 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句He wrote several papers on them and was famous for hose only to have it revealed that they were planted by jealous colleagues to ruin his reputation. 可知实际上这是那些嫉妒他的同事有意毁坏他的名声。故D正确。‎ ‎【46题详解】‎ C 推理判断题。根据文章第三段第一句When an early human being was discovered in 1912, scientists at this time were wild with excitement over the meaning it had for the theory of evolution. 可知科学家很兴奋，是因为这个古代人的分析可以证明进化论的意义。故C正确。‎ ‎【47题详解】‎ C 猜测词义题。根据前面一句The next time you read the exciting new findings of a study of the best scientist, do not automatically assume that it is true.下次当你读到最好的科学家的新发现的时候，不要想当然地认为那就是真的。也就是说要有所怀疑。根据本句Though we certainly should not ignore scientific research, we do need to take it with a grain of salt. 尽管我们不应该忽视科学家的研究，但是我们的确需要有所怀疑。所以本句中的 with a grain of salt就是指doubtfully。故C正确。‎ ‎【48题详解】‎ A 推理判断题。根据第二段第二句The fossils of spiders, lizards, and even birds with the name of God written on them in Hebrew were unlike anything that had been found before. 可知用Hebrew写在蜘蛛、蜥蜴甚至鸟类化石身上的文字和以前被发现的并不一样。句中的in表示“用某种语言”，例如in English，那么Hebrew就应该是指一种语言。故A正确。‎ 第II卷（共28分）‎ 第一部分 单词填空 ‎49.
