专业资料
Population tends to grow at an exponential(指数的)rate. This means that they progressively double. As an example of this type of growth rate take one penny and double every day for one month. After the first week, you would have only 64 cent,
but after the fourth week you would have over a million dollars.
This helps explain why the population has come on“all of a sudden” took from he beginning of human 1ife to the year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one billion. That repents(缓慢进行) a time span of at least two million years. Then it took from 1830 to 1930 for world population to reach 2 billion. The next billion was added by 1960 only thirty years and in 1975 world population reached 4 billion
which is another billion people in only fifteen years. World population is increasing at a rate of 9, 000per hour, 220,000 per day and 80 million per year. This is not only due to higher birth rate, but to lower death rate as well. The number of births has not declined at the same rate as the number of deaths.
Some countries such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica and the Philippines are doubling their population about every twenty-one years with a growth rate of 3.3 percent a year or more. The United States is doubling its population about very eighty-seven years, with a rate of 0.8 percent per year. （81）Every time a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything, including hospitals, schools, resources, food and medicines to care for its people. It is easy to see that this is very difficult to achieve for the more rapidly growing countries.
41. This passage chiefly discusses
A. the growth of world population.
B. one type of the exponential rate. C. the population problem of more rapidly growing countries. D. the possible ways of dealing with the rapid population growth.
42. According to the passage what helps to explain why the population problem has come on “all of a sudden”?
A. The penny that doubles itself every day for one month.
B. The time span of at 1east two million years in human history. C. An illustration of the exponent growth rate given by the author.
D. The large amount of money you would luckily make after the fourth week. 43. It took for the world to increase its population from 1 billion to 4 billion.
A. 100 years B. 175 years C. 1975 years D. over two million years 44. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. World population is increasing at a rate of 150 per minute. B. Lower death rate also contributes to world population growth.
C. The population of Columbia has been doubling every year for 21 years. D. The United States is usually doubling its population on about every 87 years. 45. When a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything including __.

Passage Two
Women are on the whole more verbal than men. They are good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning. while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual-spatial(视空)abilities. In fact, along with aggression these are the most commonly accepted difference between these sexes. Words are tools for communicating with other people especially information about people. They are mainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology(神经生理学), it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain males are specialists while women are generalists.
But one knows that, if anything this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both Visual and spatial and it’s true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car task that involve visual-spatial skills. They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to be extensions of their identity. （82）A woman is more likely to see her car, rifle or computer as a useful tool but not in itself fascinating.
46. According to the passage, women are usually good at_____. A. body language B. logical reasoning C. tasks demanding for the use of words D. both A and B
47. The word \"accepted” in the last sentence of the first paragraph, roughly means_____.
A. believed B. assumed C. received D. reconciled
48. In the author’s opinion, visual and spatial abilities are good for______. A. achieving one’s objects. B. mind and body.
C. programming talents into the brain. D. imagination and communication. 49. All the following tasks involve visual-spatial abilities EXCEPT____. A. imagining and handling objects.
B. providing a computer with a set of instructions C. shooting a gun and driving an automobile
D. planning and making things as an engineer does
50. Why do women seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves? A. Because they have no visual-spatial skills.
B. Because they are only good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning.
C. Because they are less likely to see their charming or interesting aspects. D. Because they rarely use machines such as cars, rifles, computers, etc. Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:
Passage Three

专业资料
The US. government has recently helped people learn more about the dangers
of earthquakes by publishing a map. This map shows the chances of an earthquake in each part of the country. （83）The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely to occur are called earthquake “belt”. The government is, spending a great deal money and is working hard to help discover the answer to these two questions: l. Can we predict earthquake? 2. Can we control earthquakes? To answer the first question, scientists are looking very closely at the
most active fault(断层)systems in the country such as the San Andreas fault in California, a fault is break between two sections of the earth’s surface. These breaks between sections are the place where earthquake occurs. Scientists look at the faults for changes that might show that an earthquake was about to occurs. But it will probably be many years before we can predict earthquakes accurately. And the control of earthquakes is even farther away.
Nevertheless, there have been some interesting developments in the field
of controlling earthquakes. The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes. Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4000 meters below surface of the ground. Shortly after this injection of water, there were a small number of earthquakes. Scientists have decided that the water which was injected into rocks works like oil on each other. When the water“oiled”the fault, the fault became slippery and the energy of an earthquake was released. Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes. They have realized that there is a connection between injection of the water and the earthquake activity. They have suggested that might be possible to use this knowledge to prevent very big destructive earthquakes, that is, scientists could inject some kind of fluid like water into faults and change one big earthquake into a number of small, harmless earthquakes. 51. Earthquake belts are .
A. maps that show where earthquakes are likely to occur B. zones with a high probability of earthquakes
C. breaks between two sections of the earth’s surface D. the two layers of earth along a fault 52. The San Andreas’ fault is . A. an active fault system
B. a place where earthquakes have been predicted accurately C. a place where earthquake have been controlled D. the location of the Rocky Mountain
53. What did scientists learn about earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal？
A. They occur at bout 4000 meters below ground level
B. The injection of water into earthquake faults prevents earthquakes from occurring.
C. They are usually caused by the oil in the faults.
D. Harmful earthquakes can be possibly prevented by causing small harmless earthquake.

Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:
Passage Four
Sporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behavior. Viewed biologically, the modern footballer is in reality a member of a hunting group. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football and his prey into a goalmouth. If his aim is accurate and he scores a goal, he enjoys the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey.
To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look back at our forefathers. They spent over a million years evolving(进化) as Cooperative hunters. Their very survival depended on success in the hunting field. （84）Under this pressure their whole way of life, even their bodies, became greatly changed：They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey killers. They cooperated as skillful male group attack.
Then about ten thousand years ago, after this immensely long period of hunting the food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life was put to a new use——that of controlling and domesticating (驯养) their prey. The hunt became suddenly out of date. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of the hunt were no longer essential for survival.
(85)The skills and thirst for hunting remained, however, and demanded new outlets. Hunting for sport replaced hunting for necessity. This new activity involved all the original hunting sequences(后果), but the aim of the operation was no longer to avoid starvation. Instead the sportsmen set off to test their skill against prey that was no longer essential to their survival. To be sure, the kill may have been eaten, but there were other purposes, much simpler of obtaining a meaty meal.
56. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Hunting is very important in human civilization.
B. Sporting activities satisfy the desire of modern society. C. It’s hunting that provides human beings with food.
D. The importance of sporting activities in modern society. 57. According to the author, sporting activities . A. are essential to the survival

60. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. The goalmouth is equal to the weapon in hunting. B. Without hunting our forefathers couldn’t live.
C. After our forefathers became farmers they still hunted for food.
D. Farmers are satisfied with stable lives and they didn’t have enthusiasm for hunting any more

Modern Life in the Modern World
Many people insist that now we live in the most wonderful and promising era in history , as more and more machines take over our hard work, making our societies more efficient and our lives more comfortable. For instance, telephone and cell phone become so popular that you can anywhere if you want. Household electrical appliances free us from housework so that we can enjoy more leisure time. Modern transportation makes the world so small that you can travel by air from one city to another in a few hours which could take several days by trains.
In spite the above benefits we gained from the development of science and technology, however, everyone now worries about the pressure modern life. As more and more machines are applied in our daily life, life pace keeps getting faster and the world is getting too complex. As we pursue more and more material things such as luxury cars, personal computers, big houses etc. our financial pressures are growing. As job markets become shrinking and job competition becomes intense, everyone worries about losing his job. What’s more, many people are now faced with the threat of terrorists or live in constant fear because of the unfair wealth distribution between the rich and the poor.
Since human beings are largely a pleasure seeking and pain-avoiding creature, we never stop inventing things to release us from hard labor. And we also try our best to prove that we are the masters of our surrounding .That’s why our civilization keeps going forward and every new generation benefits from the efforts made by previous one. As high tech develops at a surprisingly high speed, we will gain more instead of suffering more and our future bright and promising.

Passage One
A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspapers. “Last week,” he said, my umbrella was stolen from a London church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn’t get it back.
“How did you write your advertisement?” asked one of the listeners, a merchant.
“Here it is,” said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper, The other man took it and read, “Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street.”
“Now,” said the merchant, “I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of extreme importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I’ll buy you a new one.”
The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: “If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn’t wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No.10 Broad Street. He is well known.”
This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when the opened the front door. (81) In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number.

Passage Two
The great advance in rocker theory 40 years ago shows that liquid-fuel rockets were far superior in every respect to the skyrocket with its weak solid fuel. However, during the decade, large solid-fuel rockets with solid fuels about as powerful as liquid fuels have made their appearance, and it is a favorite layman’s question to inquire which one is “better”. The question is meaningless. One might as well ask whether a gasoline or a diesel engine is “better”. It all depends on the purpose, a liquid-fuel rocket is complicated, but has the advantage that it can be controlled beautifully. The burning of the rocket engine can be stopped completely: it can be reignited when desired. In addition, the thrust can be made to vary by adjusting the speed of the fuel pumps. A solid-fuel rocket, on the other hand, is rather simple in construction, though hard to build when a really at very short notice. A liquid-fuel rocket has to be fueled first and cannot be held in readiness for very long after it has been fueled. (82)However, once a solid-fuel rocket has been ignited, it will keep burning. It cannot be stopped and reignited whenever desired and its thrust cannot be varied. Because a solid-fuel rocket can be kept ready for a long time, most military employ solid fuels, but manned space-flight needs the fine adjustments that can only be provided by liquid fuels. It may be added that a liquid-fuel rocket is an expensive device; a large solid-fuel rocket is, by comparison, cheap. But the solid fuel, pound per pound, costs about 10 times as much as the liquid fuel. So you have, on the one hand, an expensive rocket with a cheap fuel and on the other hand a comparatively cheap rocket with an expensive fuel. 46. The author feels that a comparison of liquid-fuel and solid-fuel rockets shows that _______.
A. neither type is very economical B. the liquid-fuel rocket is best C. each type has certain advantages D. the solid-fuel rocket is best.
47. The most important consideration for manned space flight is that the rocket be_____.
A. inexpensive to construct B. capable of lifting heavy space shift into orbit

A. whether a liquid-fuel or a solid-fuel rocket is better depends on the purpose B. neither type is superior C. forty years ago, large solid-fuel rockets with solid-fuel as powerful as liquid fuels were made
D. the thrust can be made to vary by adjusting the direction of the pump Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:
Passage Three
As a medium of exchange, money permits the separation of exchange into the two distinct acts of buying and selling. Hence producers who know they will be paid in money, can concentrate on finding the most suitable outlet for their goods, while buyers who will pay in money, can concentrate on finding the cheapest market for the wings they wish to purchase. (83) Specialization is encouraged, because people whose output is not a complete product but only a part of one can be paid an amount equivalent to their share of the product.
Another advantage of money is that it is a measure of value. In a barter economy it would be necessary to determine how many plates were worth one hundred weight of cotton, or how many pens should be exchanged for a ton of coal. (84) The process of establishing relative values would have to be undertaken for every act of exchange, according to what products were being offered against one another, and according to the two parties’ desires and preferences.
Thirdly, money acts as store of wealth. It is difficult to imagine saving under a barter system. No one engaged on only one stage in the manufacture of a product could save part of his output, since he would be producing nothing complete. Most products deteriorate fairly rapidly, either physically or in value, as a result of long storage; even if storage were possible, the practice of storing products for years on end would involve obvious disadvantages. If wealth could not be saved, or only with great difficulty, future needs could not be provided. 51. Using money as a medium of exchange means that_____. A. you have to sell something in order to buy something B. you have to buy something in order to sell something
C. you don’t have to buy something in order to sell something D. the seller and the purchaser are the same person 52. Specialization is encouraged because_______.
A. people can use their money to buy whatever they want B. people get paid according to their share of the product. C. people pay great attention to the manufacture of a product D. people cannot use their money to buy whatever they want 53. A barter economy is one in which _______. A. value is decided by weight

C. they could not be stored for years on end D. many products would lose their value

Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:
Passage Four
There are two common explanations for origin of tipping. The Oxford English Dictionary says tip was seventeenth-century underworld slang for “give”———as in “Tip me your money or your life.” (85)Opponents of tipping will probably prefer this explanation, since it suggests the practice as originally a form of robbery. A less reputable, but nonetheless charming explanation is that in Renaissance(文艺复兴) coffeehouses, boxes were set near the door, into which customers could drop money: These boxes, according to the story, bore the legend “To Insure Promptitude,” which was ultimately shortened to TIP. Whether it was a serving woman or a boss with his or her eye on depressing wages who first thought up the idea, the story does not say.
Tipping became common in England by the middle of the eighteenth century. Because it is ill-suited to a country without an established servant class, it did not catch on in America until after the Civil War, when former slaveholders suddenly found themselves having to pay the help and when new-rich industrialists adopted the European fashion. By the turn of the century, we had made the custom our own, and the American “big tipper” was on his way.
Today, although the lines between bribery(贿赂) and thanks for services remain as vague as ever, tipping has become universal, not least because, in an increasingly uncertain economy, it provides the growing service class with income that is at least as reliable as wages and that is less subject to tax review. Not surprisingly, government officials as among the few die-hards who still question the tipping system. They have a point too. Tippers’ International Association estimates that U.S. workers get about $5 billion a year in tips.
56. In the seventeenth century, tip was probably a word used by_____.
A. lawbreakers B. customers C. waitresses D. coffeehouse bosses 57. Tipping did not become popular in U.S. until after the Civil War because______.
A. the country was free of a servant class
B. former slaveholders did not want to pay the help
C. northern industrialists refused to adopt the European fashion D. tipping was contradictory to the American custom 58. Tipping is universally accepted mainly because_______.
A. it is an easy way to make money

B. it ensures people a good and prompt service
C. it enables the service class to be free from taxes
D. it supplies the service class with a sort of reliable income

A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Indifferent. 60. The passage is about_______.
A. the origin of tipping B. the practice of tipping in U.S C. the popularity of tipping D. the shaping of the tipping system III. Cloze Test (20分)

李成业是文化部翻译组的主任。他认为，语言是一种活的东西，和我们的日常生活息息相关。他说他十分幸运，最初做法庭翻译和目前在翻译组里的工作，使他能够不断的学习和接触两种语言。
当他还在学校教英语的时候，就曾翻译了好多英文杂志中的文章，投给本地英语报。 他说：“学习语言的动机和兴趣都非常重要。”他把学习语言比喻为跑步，跑步虽然非常吃力，但运动员知道它的好处并饶有兴趣，所以还是一点都不觉得厌倦。
“在学习语言的过程中，我们一定要创造学习语言的机会和环境。”他认为看电影，阅读和交流等都是学习语言的好机会。
最后他说：“由于现在大家的时间都很有限，如果阅读能力短篇故事或一些名人的语录，对我们学习英语会很有帮助，同时也能增进学习的兴趣。”

答案详解
I. Vocabulary and structure 1. A find fault with sb. 找……的茬；挑剔；对……吹毛求疵；为固定短语，其他选项均无这种用法。句意：老板总是找他的茬儿，这让他很生气。 2. D journey 路程，通常指陆地上的远距离“旅行”；trip一般指时间段、距离近的“旅行、远足”；travel作“旅行，游历”讲，一般表示旅行的总的概念；voyage主要指远距离的水上旅行，本题中是穿越大西洋的航海旅行，只有voyage符合题意。句意：约翰森夫妇还没有为穿越大西洋的航海旅行作任何准备。
3. A get used to doing sth.意为“习惯于做某事”，get在这里做系动词。句意：起先彼特感到很孤独，但是一段时间之后他渐渐习惯了自己生活，甚至喜欢上了这种方式。
4. C would rather所跟从句表示希望或委婉的责备时，动词用过去式表示当时或将来的情况，用过去完成式表示过去的情况。句意：她说她宁愿他明天走，而不是今天。 5. B come off：能被去掉，举行；come up：发生，升起，被提及；come through：实现诺言；come to：苏醒，恢复意识。句意：昏迷了24小时之后，那位受伤的士兵终于醒了。

7. C 在独立主格结构中，分词作状语时，其主语与句子的主语一致时，分词前不需要再加主语；若分词的逻辑主语与主句的主语不一致，则分词前要加上自己的主语。本题独立主格结构The weather being fine表示原因。句意：因为天气很好，我们决定出去野餐。 8. D as在句子中引导定语从句，“as+is+过去分词”构成常用的句式，可译为“正如……” ，如：as it known to all众所周知。句意：正如人们经常指出的，知识是一把“双刃剑”，即可为善也可为恶。 9. C lay aside：把……放在一边，储备；lay out：展开，提出；lay off (sb.)：解雇某人；lay down：规定。句意：火灾后那家工厂不得不解雇500名工人。 10. D harm, damage, hurt都有“伤害”的意思，注意这几个词的区别：damange：

11. D it + be +被强调部分+ that 是强调句的固定结构。请注意not until强调句的用法。句意：知道被送进了监狱他才意识到自己已经犯了法。 12. C it’s no + use/good + doing sth.意为“做什么没用/没好处”等，为固定用法。句意：反对他的建议是没好处的，因为他从不改变主意。
13. D visible：可见的；original：起初的；delicate：脆弱的，易损的；available：可获得的，可取的。句意：大、中、小号的裙子一应俱全。 14. D doubt：怀疑；sense：感觉；judgement：判断；suspicion：察觉。其中doubt是由于信息不足而不相信，或不能辨别是非真伪，拿不准；suspicion是感到可能存在某事，猜疑有某种情况，多指疑心别人有不好的事。句意：老师觉察到那个男孩脸色苍白，没有胃口。
15. C 句子中缺少主语，只有what可以引导主语从句。句意：在有些国家，那些被称做平等的东西并非意味着所有公民权利平等。
16. D 从大雨中可以看出是一种肯定得推测，并且打电话的那个时候妻子已经睡着了。must have done表示对过去动作的肯定推测。句意：“昨天晚上你妻子为什么不接我电话？”“我想你打电话时她一定睡着了。” 17. C do business with sb.意为“与某人做生意”，为固定用法。其他选项都不正确。故选C。句意：谁和那位仁兄做生意谁就会破财。
18. B respectful：尊敬的，表示敬意的；respectable：令人尊敬的，值得尊敬的；respective：各自的，分别的；respecting是respect的现在分词形式。句意：那位令人尊敬的老师凭着她的交际语言教学法收到了学生的赞扬。 19. B 句子空缺处缺少宾语成分，只有that和whatever可以引导宾语从句；根据句意可知应是“人可以做的任何事情”。句意：如果计算机造得像人脑一样复杂，它就可以做人类可以做的任何事。
20. C 物主代词/人称代词/名词所有格+动名词，构成了动名词的复合结构，物主代词或名词所有格等是动名词的逻辑主语。动名词复合结构在句子中主要作主语和宾格。本题中their reducing作understand的宾语。句意：他们缩减了用于教育事业的资金数额，这一行为使人费解。
21. D transfer sb./ sth. from to将sb./ sth.意为“从一个地方转移到另一个地方”，符合题意。其他选项transmit：传送，传输，发射；remove：移开，拿去，去掉；exchange：交换；均不合题意。句意：约翰希望公司能够将他调到纽约的分公司。

24. A 本题涉及倍数表示发的其中之一：A + be +倍数+ as +计量形容词原级+ as + B。句意：他去年买了一座新房子，是他以前那座的两倍大。 25. B come into effect意为：“生效，起作用”。为固定搭配。句意：我被告

知合同将于下个月的第一天生效。 26. A lead to：引起，带来；result from：由于，因为；lie in：位于；settle down：建立，居住。根据句中主语和宾语的逻辑关系可以确定正确答案。句意：和谐社会会给国家的卫生、财产和安全都带来可观的效益。
27. A as/though引导的让步状语从句要用部分倒装结构，所以将表语young提前。句意：尽管她很年轻，她也能胜任那项工作。
28. B neither nor连接的两个成分的时态和语态应该保持一致。Neither后跟的是现在完成时，所以nor后也应跟动词的现在完成时形式，has可以省略。句意：李教授已经好几天既没看电视也没看电影了。
29. A delete：删除，删掉；skim：掠过，滑过；omit：忽略；leave off：中断。句意：我的论文被导师删掉了三段，好可惜！
30. D sb. is accused of doing sth.：某人被指责做了某事；punish与scold均不能与of连用；be charged with意为“指控，控告”。句意：那名士兵被指责在敌人袭击时临阵脱逃。 31. A dares在本句中是实意动词，所以变反意疑问句式借助于助动词does（主语是第二人称或复数时借助于do）；又因前半句是肯定形式，所以反意疑问句要用否定形式。句意：那个年轻女孩敢在夜晚独自驾驶，不是吗？
32. D 非限定性定语从句应该用which来引导，所以可以排除A、C，选B项的话，从句仍缺少宾语。句意：他的起居室里陈列着各种各样的书，但他一本也没有读过。
33. D precise：就，恰好，at the precise moment意为“就在这个时候”，其他均不能用于此结构。句意：我走进大厅，恰好在这个时候音乐会开始了。 34. D edge：边沿，边线；limit：限度，程度；border：一般指“国界，边界”，boundaries：边界，界限。所以综合可知D最合适。句意：随着科技的进步，人类知识的界限正在进一步向外扩充。
35. C in that相当于because；so that：以至于；provide that：只要；but that：要不是。句意：氢是宇宙中的基本元素，因为它提供了产生其他因素的固体。
36. C 在表示虚拟语气的条件句中，从句与过去事实相反，要用过去完成时。句意：如果你做完早睡的话，今天早上你就不会感到这么累了。
37. A continuously：持续地，连续地，不断地；continually：频繁地，多次重复地；consciously：有意思的；contractively：合同地，契约地。根据句意，雨应该是持续不断地下了两天。句意：已经连续下了两天雨了。
38. C leave sb./ sth. off和leave sb./ sth. out都有“将某人/某事漏掉；不包含某人/某物在内”的意思。leave sb./ sth. out还有“冷落某人”的意思，带有感情色彩，更符合题意。Count on sb./ sth.意为“依赖某人，某物”；count up意为“总数为，总计”。这两个都不合题意。句意：你分发请帖时别漏掉我。
39. A in case of sth.：假使，如果；in case：以防，万一；in event of：如果，以防；三项都不符合题意。in the cause of意为“在……过程中”。句意：在化学变化中一种新物质生成了。 40. D 进行比较的应该是人数（the number），所以用that来指代前面的the number，不能用those，故B不正确；A、C均无引导词，也不正确。句意：报名参加今年的马拉松的人数是去年（人数）的一半。

Ⅱ. Reading Comprehension
41. A 事实细节题。题干大意是：这个男人一度认为广告是______。从文章第一句“A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspapers.”可知，这个人曾经认为打广告是没有用的。故正确答案为A。 42. B 事实细节题。题干大意是：第一则广告的结果是______。从文章第一段主人公所说的话中“As it was a present, I spend twice its worth in advertising, but didn’t get it back.（因为它是别人送的礼物，我花了两倍的价钱做广告，但还是没有找回伞）”可知，B项为正确答案。其他几项不符合题意。
43. C 事实细节题。题干大意是：商人建议这个男人应当______。从文章第四段内容中，这个商人认为广告中心表达的方式是极其重要的。他准备再试着找一下，如果找不到，他会给那个人买把新的。可知，这个商人认为原来的广告写的没有力度，他准备写个更好一点的。故正确答案为C。
44. A 推理判断题。题干大意是：为什么这个商人说“我经常做广告并且发现从中获得不少”？从文章最后一段商人写广告收到的效果可以判断，商人的意思是他经常写广告，知道怎么才能把广告做好？故A为正确答案。
45. B 主旨大意题。题干大意为：这个故事是关于______。文章通过两则广告所带来的不同效果来说明，不同的广告语言会产生截然不同的效果，意在告诉我们怎样才能写出更有影响力的广告。由此可知，B项符合文章大意。C、D两项只体现文中某一方面，不能概括全文，A项不正确。
46. C 推理判断题。题干大意是：作者对液体燃料火箭和固体燃料火箭的对比表明______。这是一篇较为典型的说明文（描述文），以比较对照的写作方式介绍火箭燃料技术。由文中内容“It all depends on the purpose, a liquid-fuel rocket is complicated, but has the advantage that it can be controlled beautifully.”和“A solid-fuel rocket, on the other hand, is rather simple in construction, it is ready for action at very short notice.”以及最后一句“so you have, on the one hand, an expensive rocket with a cheap fuel and on the other hand a comparatively cheap rocket with an expensive fuel.”可知，它们各有千秋，各有各的优缺点。
47. C 事实细节题。题干大意是：载人航天飞机最重要的考虑是火箭要______。由文中“but manned space-flight needs the fine adjustments that can only be provided by liquid fuels.（但是载人太空飞机需要只有液态燃料才能提供的精细的调节。）”可知，C项为正确答案。其他几项都不符合文意。 48. B 事实细节题。题干大意是：固体燃料火箭很昂贵是因为他们的______。由文中“But the solid fuel, pound per pound, costs about 10 times as much as the liquid fuel.（但是每磅固体燃料的价钱都是液体燃料的10倍）”可知，B项为正确答案。
49. B 事实细节题。题干大意是：下列哪种说法不属于液体燃料火箭的特点？由文中“It may be added that a liquid-fuel rocket is an expensive device”可知液体燃料火箭是很贵的设备。故B是错误的，A，C，D三项都是其特点。本题是选择不属于其特点的，故B项为正确答案。 50. A 事实细节题。题干大意是：作者告诉我们______。从文中“It all depends on purpose”可知A选项是正确的。另外用排除法也可得出答案。B项明显

错误，由“during the decade, large solid-fuel rockets with solid fuels about as powerful as liquid fuels have made their appearance”可知C项错误；由“the thrust can be made to vary by adjusting the speed of the fuel pumps”可知D项错误。故正确答案为A。
51. C 事实细节题。题干大意是：用钱作为交换的媒介意味着______。这是一篇说明文，从三个方面讲述金钱货币的作用。根据文章第一段第一句“As a medium of exchange, money permits the separation of exchange into the two distinct acts of buying and selling.”（作为交换的媒介，钱把买和卖这两种不同行为的交换关系区分开来。）可知，有了钱，你就不用为了卖一些东西而非得买进一些东西了。故C为正确答案。
52. D 推理判断题。题干大意是：鼓励专业化生产是因为______。由第一段最后一句“Specialization is encouraged, because people whose output is not a complete product but only a part of one can be paid an amount equivalent to their share of the product.（鼓励专业化生产，因为尽管专业化生产者生产的不是成品而是部件，他们依然能够得到应得的劳动报酬。）”可知，B为正确答案。
53. D 推理判断题。题干大意是：物物交换经济指的是______。由文章第二段第二句“In a barter economy for a ton of coal.（在物物交换经济中，有必要确定一百斤重的棉花值多少个盘子或者一吨煤能换多少支笔。）”可推断，在物物交换经济中，只是实行货物交换，无需用钱。故D为正确答案。 54. D 事实细节题。题干大意是：如果人们储存产品而不是钱，______。根据文章第三段第四句“Most products deteriorate（变坏）fairly rapidly, either physically or in value, as a result of long storage（由于长时间的存储，大部分产品无论是产品本身还是在价值上很快就会变质或贬值。）”可知，如果人们储存产品而不是钱，那么很多产品就会失去其价值。故选D。
55. B 事实细节题。题干大意是：文中提到了钱的几处优点？由文章每段的首句的关键词就可得出答案。由文中的“Another advantage”和“Thirdly”可知文章共介绍了钱的三大优点。故正确答案选B。 56. A 推理判断题。题干大意是：在17世纪，“tip”有可能是被用于______的词。由文章第一段第二句和第三句的内容可知，在17世纪，tip作为俚语在下层社会（under-world）中使用，是give的意思，如：“给我你的钱，要不就留下你的命。”反对给小费的人也许更喜欢这种解释，因为该解释暗示了给小费这种做法是源自抢劫的一种形式。故选项A符合文意。B“顾客”；C“女服务员”；D“咖啡店老板”都不符合文义。 57. A 事实细节题。题干大意是：“小费”直到内战之后才在美国风行起来是因为______。由文章第二段“it did not catch on in America until after the civil war, when former slaveholders suddenly found themselves having to pay the help and when new-rich industrialists adopted the European fashion.”可知美国是在内战之后，奴隶制被废除，新富裕起来的工人阶级接受欧洲的时尚之后，“Tipping”才受欢迎的。故A项为正确答案。
58. D 事实细节题。题干大意是：消费被普遍接受主要是因为______。从文中第三段“tipping has become universal, not least because, in an increasingly uncertain economy, it provides the growing service class

with income that is at least as reliable as wages and that is less subject to tax review.”可知小费可以给服务阶层提供一种可靠的收入。故D为正确答案。
59. C 事实细节题。题干大意是：下列哪个词可以更好地描述政府官员对消费体制的态度？由文中第三段第二句“Not surprisingly, government officials are among the few die-hards who still question the tipping system.（毫无疑问，政府官员属于那些仍然质疑消费体制的少数顽固派。）”可知，只有C（充满疑问的）与question比较接近。A“积极的”，B“消极的”，D“冷漠的，漠不关心的”都与文意无关。
60. D 主旨大意题。题干大意是：这篇文章是关于______。通读全文，可知本文是讲述小费的形成及发展历程。第一段将消费的起源，接下来讲述小费制度在美国的形成情况。A项仅涉及小费的起源，只是其中一个方面。故选D。
III. Cloze
61. B should：应该（某事宜于做）；would：将会，总是（过去的习惯动作）；might：可能会（表示可能性）；must：必须，一定要。根据句意：除了周末，每天早上他都将看到一个工人……可知B为正确答案。还可根据下文“would”频繁出现，推知此类似用法。
62. A push：推；pull：拉；fill：填；carry：搬，拿。根据题意，是“推自行车”，因此选A。
63. D arrive：到达，为不及物动词，加地点时要用arrive at；appear：出现，为不及物动词；come：来，为不及物动词；reach：到达，为及物动词。因此选D。
64. C force：强迫，用法为force sb. to do sth.；make：迫使，强迫，用法为make sb. do sth.；call：召至某处，命令到某处。根据词义及搭配，只能选C。
65. C show：展示；lead：领导，指路；untie：揭开；loose：松开，放开。根据题意，应为揭开那捆稻草，因此选C。
66. D that引导从句，无实义；where指地点；how指方式；whether意为“是否”。根据句意应为“他将会仔细检查稻草，看看他能否发现什么”因此选D。 67. A 根据句意：在他让那个工人把那捆稻草再次捆起来之前，他将检查那个工人的所有口袋。因此选A。
68. B lucky：幸运的；expecting：期待；suspecting：怀疑；insisting：坚持。根据句意：尽管亨利总是期待从稻草中发现隐藏的金子、珠宝或其他有价值的东西，但即使他很认真的检查，也什么都没有发现。可得知B为正确答案。
69. D 本题用分词作定语，修饰前面的things，由于此分词定语与所修饰词things是逻辑上的动宾关系，因此用过去分词表被动。
70. D nothing：什么也没有；something：一些东西；everything：一切东西；anything：任何东西。anything与前面的never连用，构成否定，指什么也没有，依据68题中的句意分析，可知选D。
71. B cheat：欺骗；smuggle：走私；steal：偷；push：推。依据第一段第一句话可知亨利的工作是检查出入境人员是否走私，因此选B。
72. C capable：有能力的，其搭配为be capable of doing sth.；possible：
word完美格式
专业资料
可能；able：有能力的，能够，其搭配为be able to do sth.；clever：聪明的。句意为“他不能想象那到底是什么”。依据词义以及搭配，应选C。 73. A look through：审核，仔细查看；look thoroughly无此固定搭配；look upon/on sb./ sth.：把……视为，看作。根据题意，是要表达他仔细查看了稻草堆之意，因此选A。
74. C as usual：像往常一样，固定搭配。 75. B cry：叫，喊，哭；say：说，表达；“对某人说”常用“say to sb.”的结构；order：命令；tell：告诉，讲述，是及物动词，宾语为人时，其搭配为tell sb.。根据空后面的内容，他是在询问那个工人如何走私的，急切想知道其走私的方法，因此不能用cry和order，而只有say意思与搭配都合适。
76. C cross：穿越，穿过，为动词；behind：在……之后，为介词；across：横过，越过，可以作介词或副词；into：到……里面。根据句意，要表达的是“越过边境”之意，而此句话中已有谓语动词，不能再用动词，因此选C。 77. A on the job：在工作岗位上，在上班。根据题意，是要表达“我已经老了，今天是我最后一天上班了，明天我就退休了。如果你告诉我你一直在走私什么，我保证不会告诉任何人。”因此选A，其他选项无此搭配。
78. C return：返回，归还；risk：冒险；retire：退休；rest：休息。根据77题句意分析，可知C为正确答案。
79. D everyone：每个人；someone：某人；no one：没有人；anyone：任何人，多用于否定句或疑问句中。根据77题句意分析，可知D为正确答案。
80. A a long time：很长时间；a period：指一段时间；a moment：片刻，瞬间；some time：某段时期。根据亨利和这个人的对话可知，这个走私者停顿了很长时间才犹豫地说出了他一直走私的是自行车。因此选A较为合适。 IV. Translation Section A
81. 在门口至少堆放着被扔进来的色彩各异、大小不一的十二把雨伞，他的也在其中。
82. 然而，一旦固体燃料火箭被点燃，它就一直燃烧，不能随心所欲地熄灭、再次点燃，火箭的推动力无法调节。
83. 鼓励分工协作，因为分工协作者尽管生产的不是成品而是部件，他们依然能够得到应得的劳动报酬。
84. 根据双方所提供产品的对比，以及双方的期望和喜好，每次交易都必须估算产品的相对价值。
85. 反对给小费的人也许更喜欢这种解释，因为该解释暗示了给小费这种做法是源自抢劫的一种形式。

Even when he was a teacher of English, he kept in touch with Chinese by translating articles from English magazines into Chinese for the local press. He said: “Internet and motivation are most important in learning and mastering a language.” He compares language learning to jogging. It is a laborious exercise, but what keeps the jogger running is an interest and the knowledge of the advantages and benefits of the exercise. One must always create the environment and opportunities for language learning. He suggests watching movies, reading books, and even writing to pen-pals as some of the ways to get involved in the learning. “Because of the limited time we have, reading short stories, or even lines of famous quotations of wise men, is good, and helps make language learning more interesting,” he added.

How to Repay Your Parents
Children can’t live happily and healthily without parents, because parents have done a lot during the growth of children. From the necessities such as three meals a day to school education at different levels, parents’ love of and devotion to children are felt everywhere.
As children have become grown-up, they realize how much their parents have done for them and how important it is to repay their parents; some work so hard to earn large sums of money to provide big houses for their parents. Some are always cooking delicious food or buying expensive clothes for them; still others arrange for parents to go traveling both home and abroad and the like. Naturally all these would make their parents happy.
However, as far as I am concerned, what parents need most is simply a call, a talk, or a dinner together. To tell you the truth, whenever I have spare time, I try to see them in person, have meals with them, talk with them and share with them my joys and sorrows, which offers them the greatest happiness. In a word, I think we should repay our parents with the deep love from the bottom of our hearts as they have done for us.
