B．The；theC．A；/ D．A；the答案A[考查冠詞。根據(jù)inJapan可知第一空為特指，所以用the，第二空power前面有定語，不加冠詞。]22．________ithasstarted，atsunamicanmoveacrosstheoceanforhugedistances.A．ThoughB．SinceC．OnceD．While答案C[考查狀語從句。though雖然；since因為；once一旦；while當……時候。此處語義為“一旦海嘯開始了”。]23．—DoyouknowJane?—Yes.Sheseemsstrange.Ifind________hardtogetalongwithher.A．meB．itC．herD．that答案B[考查代詞。該題為“findit＋adj.＋todo”結(jié)構(gòu)，it為形式賓語，代替后面的動詞不定式短語。]24．—Ihaven'tmademuchgreaterprogressinspiteofmyhardwork.—Don'tworry.Haveyouforgottenthatlittlechangescan________greatchange?A．a(chǎn)ddup B．a(chǎn)ddtoC．a(chǎn)ddupto D．a(chǎn)ddinto答案C[考查短語辨析。addupto合計。句意：難道你忘了小小的變化會累計成大變化嗎？]25．TheGreatWall，________wevisitedduringthesummervacation，isthelongestwallintheworld.A．where B．whenC．what D．which答案D[考查定語從句。which指代先行詞theGreatWall，在句中作動詞visit的賓語。]26．________privatecarsarebringingusconvenience，theymayalsocausemoretrafficaccidentsandpollution.A．While B．AsC．If D．Since答案A[while在此是連詞，表示讓步，意為“盡管……；即使……”。句意：盡管私家車可以給我們帶來方便，但同時也帶來了更多的交通事故和污染。]27．—Wherewillyoustartyourworkaftergraduation?—Mmm，it'snotbeendecidedyet.I________continuemystudyforahigherdegree.A．needB．mustC．wouldD．might答案D[由it'snotbeendecidedyet可知，“我”對此并不確定，因此后面的情態(tài)動詞用might表示可能性不是很大。]28．—Youseemedtohavebeenimpressedbyhissongs.—Well，notexactlyso.Itwashiswayofsinging________hisvoicethatreallyimpressedme.A．ratherthan B．a(chǎn)swellasC．butalso D．togetherwith答案A[考查強調(diào)句中被強調(diào)部分之間的連接詞的用法辨析。句意：是他的演唱方式而不是他的歌聲讓我印象深刻。故選A。]29．—It'sthirtyyearssincewelastmet.—ButIstillrememberthestory，believeitornot，________wegotlostonarainynight.A．whichB．thatC．whatD．when答案B[通過對句子的分析可知，believeitornot是插入語，that引導的是thestory的同位語從句。]30．Themotherandsonrecognizedeachotheratfirstsightthough________formanyyears.A．separating B．tobeseparatedC．separated D．havingbeenseparated答案C[考查過去分詞的用法。句意：盡管被分開了很多年，但母親和兒子第一次見面就認出對方來了。連詞though后接過去分詞，表示被動，相當于thoughtheywereseparated...。]31．Theyoungkidsaidthathehadtoldmethetruth，aboutwhichIwas________verymuch.It'stypicalofhimtotelllies.A．concerned B．curiousC．doubtful D．particular答案C[考查形容詞辨析。句意：這個孩子說他告訴了我真相，對這一點我很懷疑，因為撒謊是他的特質(zhì)。concerned擔憂的；curious好奇的；doubtful懷疑的；particular特別的。]32．Onlythosewhohaveexperiencedhardshipcanbewellawareof________happinessmeans.A．whyB．whatC．howD．which答案B[考查賓語從句。句意：只有那些體驗了苦難的人才能更好地意識到幸福的含義。分析句式結(jié)構(gòu)可知，空格處所需詞在句中引導賓語從句且在從句中充當means的賓語，所以B項正確。which引導名詞性從句時多表示疑問且要有一個明確的范圍。]33．—Iforgottodomyhomework.Don'ttelltheteacher.—Iwon'ttellanybody，butdoyouthinkyoucan________it?A．getawayfrom B．breakawayfromC．getawaywith D．runawayfrom答案C[考查動詞短語辨析。第二句句意：我不會告訴任何人，不過你認為你能僥幸過關(guān)嗎？getawaywith有錯未受懲罰；getawayfrom從某處逃走，擺脫某人；breakawayfrom掙脫；脫離(政黨，組織等)；runawayfrom逃離；從……逃出。]34．Mostyoungdon'thaveenoughmoneytoafford______anewhouseformarriagethemselvesnowadays.A．tobuy B．buyC．bought D．buying答案A[考查非謂語動詞。句意：大多數(shù)年輕人如今自己都沒有足夠多的錢買新房結(jié)婚。afford后接動詞時，需用動詞不定式，而不可以用動詞的-ing形式。由此可以知道D項錯誤。B、C項錯誤，因為afford后不可以跟動詞原形，也不可以接過去分詞。]35．—ShallIhelpyougetadictionarysinceI'lldropinatthebookstorethisafternoon?—________.A．Itcouldn'tbebetter B．OfcourseyoucanC．Ifyoulike D．It'suptoyou答案A[考查交際用語。前句句意：今天下午我要去書店，幫你買本詞典好嗎？A項表示“再好不過了”?！胺穸ㄔ~＋比較級”表示最高級用法。B、C、D三項不符合英語交際的禮貌原則。]第二節(jié)：完形填空(共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分) 閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。Onesunnyafternoon，aseven-year-oldgirlwentforawalk.Shecrossedalargeareaofgrasslandintothewoods__36__sherealisedthatshewaslost.Sittingonarockand__37__whattodo，shebegancrying.Afterawhile，she__38__towalkalongawidepathlinedwithtalltreesandthickbushes.__39__itwasgettingdark，shesawasmall，darkwoodenhouse.Sheopenedthedoorand__40__steppedin.Suddenly，sheheardastrangenoise，andsheranoutthedoorandbacktothe__41__.Coldandtired，shefellasleepneara__42__.Thegirl'sparentswereoutandherdog，Laddy，wasathome.Laddy__43__thathismistress(女主人)wasindanger.Hejumped__44__awindow，breakingtheglass.Helookedinthefields，buthecouldn'tfindhismistressanywhere.However，fromthegroundcamea__45__scent(氣味)asheloweredhishead.He__46__thescentandwalkedacrossthegrassland.Barking__47__intotheair，thedog__48__throughthewoodsuntilhefoundthe__49__.Butthegirlwasnotthere，soheheadedbacktothewoods.Muchtohis__50__，hesawhismistress'blueshirtinthedistance.He__51__oversomebushesandsawthelittlestream，wherethegirlwas__52__.Whensheopenedhereyesand__53__herdogstandingbesideher，thegirlsaid，“you__54__me，Laddy，”andshekissedhimseveraltimes.Seeingtheirdaughteranddogcomingback，theparentsburstintotearsof__55__.ThatnightLaddyhadahero'ssupper：ahugemealofsteak.【語篇解讀】本文是一篇記敘文，講述了一個七歲的小女孩出去散步，結(jié)果走到樹林里迷了路，最后被自己家的狗Laddy接回了家。36．A.beforeB．sinceC．whileD．a(chǎn)s答案A[before表示“才”。句意：小女孩穿過了一大片草地進入了樹林后才意識到自己迷路了。since“自從”；while“當……時候”，常和進行時態(tài)連用；as“隨著……”，都不符合題意。]37．A.wondering B．forgettingC．remembering D．regretting答案A[wonder“納悶，不知道”。根據(jù)上文小女孩迷路了，還有下文開始大哭起來，可知此處句意：坐在石頭上，不知道怎么辦。forget“忘記”；remember“記得”；regret“后悔，遺憾”，都不符合題意。]38．A.preferred B．expectedC．failed D．decided答案D[句意：過了一會兒，她決定沿著一條路旁有高大的樹木和濃密灌木叢的寬闊的道路走去。結(jié)合語境，應用decided。]39．A.When B．UntilC．If D．Because答案A[句意：當天變黑的時候，她看到了一個小黑木屋。所以用when。]40．A.carelessly B．cautiouslyC．hopelessly D．unwillingly答案B[根據(jù)常識，小女孩看到了一個小木屋，她應該是打開門小心地邁進去。cautiously“小心地，謹慎地”；carelessly“粗心地”；hopelessly“無望地”；unwillingly“不樂意地”。]41.A．trees B．bushesC．woods D．grasses答案C[此題要結(jié)合上文。根據(jù)上文知道小女孩本來是在森林里面，她邁進小屋后聽到了奇怪的聲音，她跑出來，又回到森林(woods)里面。]42．A.stream B．rockC．tree D．house答案A[此題要結(jié)合下文He________oversomebushesandsawthelittlestream，wherethegirlwas...，根據(jù)這一句話可知小女孩是在小河邊(stream)睡著了。]43．A.found B．sensedC．heard D．smelt答案B[小女孩在樹林里，狗在家里，距離很遠，所以它不可能是發(fā)現(xiàn)(found)，聽見(heard)或者聞到(smelt)女主人有危險，而是應該“感覺到(sensed)”女主人有危險。]44．A.at B．throughC．in D．onto答案B[jumpedthroughawindow“從窗子里跳出來”，從某一空間穿過要用“through”。]45．A.terrible B．strangeC．pleasant D．familiar答案D[狗的嗅覺靈敏，它從地上應該是聞到一股“熟悉”(familiar)的味道后，才順著味道去尋找。]46．A.missed B．discoveredC．followed D．ignored答案C[根據(jù)上文知道它聞到了主人熟悉的味道，所以它跟隨著這個味道去找，“隨著，跟著”用follow。miss“錯過，懷念”；discover“發(fā)現(xiàn)”；ignore“忽略”。]47．A.calmly B．loudlyC．merrily D．gently答案B[根據(jù)具體情境，狗應該是大聲叫，希望主人聽見。所以loudly符合語境。]48．A.searched B．wanderedC．looked D．travelled答案A[句意：狗邊大聲叫著，邊在樹林里搜尋。search“搜尋”。]49．A.windowB．girlC．houseD．hero答案C[根據(jù)下一句Butthegirlwasnotthere，所以此處不能選thegirl，應該是發(fā)現(xiàn)了那個小木屋。]50．A.satisfaction B．disappointmentC．embarrassment D．delight答案D[根據(jù)下文它看到了遠處女主人的藍襯衫，它應該是高興，所以選delight。]51．A.jumped B．climbedC．walked D．flew答案A[根據(jù)后面的“oversomebushes”可知，狗是從灌木叢上面跳過去的，所以用jumped。]52．A.awake B．a(chǎn)bandonedC．a(chǎn)vailable D．a(chǎn)sleep答案D[根據(jù)上文我們知道小女孩在河邊睡著了，所以狗看到了小河，小女孩在那里正睡著。所以選asleep。awake“醒著的”；abandon“放棄，舍棄”；available“可獲得的，可用的，有空的”。]53．A.spotted B．watchedC．observed D．saw答案D[句意：當小女孩睜開眼睛看到她的狗站在身邊時，她說……spot“認出，玷污”；watch“觀看(電視)”；observe“仔細觀察，研究，遵守”；see“看到，看見”，所以選D。]54．A.disturbed B．comfortedC．rescued D．scared答案C[根據(jù)語境，小女孩迷路了，自己的狗找來了，她認為是狗“救了她”，所以用rescued“拯救”符合題意。]55.A．pain B．shockC．sorrow D．relief答案D[現(xiàn)在看到女兒和狗回來了，父母是松了口氣，所以用relief“輕松，寬慰”比較符合語境。]第三部分：閱讀理解(共兩節(jié)，滿分40分)第一節(jié)(共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分)閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。ATheadvantagesofusingflashcardstobuildupavocabularyarewellknown.Youcanbuysetsofcards，ormakeyourown，andcarrythemwithyouwhereveryougotouseinanyidletimeyoufindyourselfwithduringtheday.There'snoquestionthisisuseful，andbecauseyoucanusetheminshortbursts，it'snottoomuchforyou；itcanbefun.Idon'trecommenddrillingforhoursatatimewithflashcards.Ifyouwanttouseflashcardsoftware，thingsgetevenbetter.Therearemanypackagesoutthereformaintaininganddrillingflashcards.IrecommendVTrainthoughtherearemanyothers.Onestandsout，however：SuperMemo.SimilartoPimsleur，SuperMemoisengineeredaccordingtoacarefullyresearchedmethodology(方法學)inordertotestyouonacardtheveryminimumnumberoftimesyouneedtoseeitforittostick.Whenyoulookatacard，yougivesomefeedbacktothesoftwareonwhetheryougotitrightandhoweasyyoufoundit.Itusesthisinformation，andthatofyourpreviousattempts，todecidewhenyouwillbeshownthecardnext.It'ssmart，anditreallyworks.Ifyou'relikeme，thenewsisevenbetter！Ihaveaversion_of_SuperMemothatrunsonmyPalmOSphone.WhereverIam，ifIhavemyphonehandyIhavethousandsofflashcardswithmetoo.Honestly，itwouldbeworthpurchasingacheapPalmdeviceonlyforthis.Youcanpickoneupfor$20orevenlessoneBayorelsewhere.Considerit，atleast.【語篇解讀】文章給人們介紹了一種增加詞匯量的好方法。56．Whatisthepurposeoftheauthorinwritingthepassage?A．Toteachushowtomakeflashcards.B．Totelluswheretogetflashcards.C．Tointroducetousawaytobuildupavocabulary.D．Tosuggestusbuyingflashcards.答案C[主旨大意題。通讀全文可以看出，文章主要講述了使用flashcards增加詞匯量這個方法。]57．Whichofthefollowingistrueaccordingtothepassage?A．Don'tstudywithflashcardstoolongatatime.B．Usingcardstostudycanbeverytiring.C．Thereisnotenoughflashcardsoftwareatpresent.D．Flashcardsoftwarecanbecarriedwhereveryougo.答案A[細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句“我不推薦一次用flashcards演練幾個小時”判斷，A項正確。]58．WithSuperMemo，whetherthenextcardwillbeshowndependson________.A．thetimeyoulookatacardB．theinformationinthecomputerC．thefeedbackonegivestothesoftwareD．thetimesoneattemptstodowithacard答案C[細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三自然段可以看出，下一張卡片出現(xiàn)的時間是根據(jù)“你對這個軟件的反饋”。]59．Bysaying“Considerit，atleast”inthelastparagraph，theauthorhopesweconsider________.A．buyingaPalmdeviceB．whetheritisworthbuyingoneC．usingflashcardstostudyD．installingSuperMemoonourphones答案A[推理判斷題。作者在最后一段中談到“在ebay或其他地方，你用$20或者更少就可買一個”，然后說considerit，由此推斷作者是讓讀者“考慮買一個”。]BIhateddinnerparties.ButIdecidedtogivethemanothershotbecauseI'minLondon.AndmyfriendMalleryinvitedme.AndbecausedinnerpartiesinLondonareverydifferentfromthosebackinNewYork.There，“I'mhavingadinnerparty”means：“I'mbookingatablefor12atarestaurantyoucan'taffordandwe'llbesharingthechequeevenly，nomatterwhatyoueat.”Worse，inManhattanthereisalwayssomeonewholeavesbeforethebillarrives.They'llthrowdowncash，halfofwhattheyowe，andthenpeoplelikeme，whodon'tdrink，enduppayingevenmore.ButifItrytousethesametrick，thehostesswillshout：“Whereareyougoing？”Andit'snotlikeIcansayIhavesomewheretogo：everyoneknowsIhavenowheretogo.ButinLondon，dinnerpartiesareinpeople'shomes.Notonlythat，theguestsareaninterestingmix.ThelasttimeIwenttoone，theguestswerefromFrance，India，DenmarkandNigeria；itwaslikeagatheringattheUnitedNations.InNewYork，themixislessstriking.It'slikeagatheringatBloomingdale's，awell-knowndepartmentstore.ForNewYorkers，talkingaboutotherpartsoftheworldmeansBrooklynandQueensinNewYork.ButatMallery's，whenIsaidthatIhadbeentoMyanmarrecently，peopleknewwhereitwas.InNewYorkpeoplewouldthinkitwasausualnewclub.【語篇解讀】文中作者對比了倫敦與紐約dinnerparties的不同。紐約的dinnerparties由于多在飯店舉行，而且費用昂貴，付費不公平而使作者討厭。相比之下，倫敦的dinnerparties則有趣得多。60．Whatdoestheword“shot”inParagraph1probablymean?A．Choice. B．Try.C．Style. D．Goal.答案B[詞義猜測題。根據(jù)上下文可知，雖然作者討厭dinnerparties，但由于現(xiàn)在是在倫敦，所以作者決定“再給他們一次機會“，即“再去參加”。try意為“嘗試，機會”，其他三項均無此意。]61．WhatdoesthewriterdislikemostaboutdinnerpartiesinNewYork?A．Thereisastrangemixofpeople.B．Therestaurantsareexpensive.C．Thebillisnotfairlyshared.D．Peoplehavetopaycash.答案C[事實細節(jié)題。從文章第一段后半部分可知，有些人付的錢少，而有些像作者一樣的人則付錢多，作者覺得這比“分攤費用”和“收費昂貴”更糟。故選C。A項不是紐約dinnerparties的特點；B、D兩項并不是作者最不喜歡的。]62．WhatdoestheauthorthinkofthepartiesinLondon?A．Abitunusual.

D．Moreinteresting.答案D[事實細節(jié)題。根據(jù)第一段第四句及第二段內(nèi)容可知，倫敦的dinnerparties比紐約的dinnerparties有趣得多。]63．Whatistheauthor'sopinionofsomeNewYorkersfromherexperience?A．Easy-going. B．Self-centred.C．Generous. D．Conservative.答案B[觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)第一段中提到的有的紐約人參加party時付費少可知，他們是“自私的”，“以自我為中心的”，因此選self-centred。easy-going”脾氣隨和的，溫和的”；generous“慷慨大方的”；conservative“保守的，守舊的”。]CCassandraFeeleyfindsithardtomanageonherhusband'sincome.Sothisyearshedidsomethingmorethanahobby：sheplantedvegetablesinheryard.Forherfirstgarden，MsFeeleyhasputin15tomatoplants，andfiverowsofavarietyofvegetables.Thefamily'soldfarmhousehasbecomeachickenhouse，itsresidentsarrivingnextmonth.Lastyear，MsRitaGartinkeptasmallgarden.Thisyearshehasmadeitmuchlargerbecause，shesaid，“ThecostofeverythingisgoingupandIwaslookingtoloseafewpounds，too；soit'sawin-winsituationallaround.”TheyareamongthegrowingnumberofAmericanswho，drivenbyhigherlivingcostsandafallingeconomy(經(jīng)濟)，havetakenupvegetablegardeningforthefirsttime.Othershaveincreasedthesizeoftheirexistinggardens.Seedcompaniesandgardenshopssaythatnotsincethe1970shavetherebeensuchanincreaseininterestingrowingfoodathome.Nowmanygardensacrossthecountryhavebeensoldoutforseveralmonths.InAustin，Tex.，someofthegardenshaveathree-yearwaitinglist.GeorgeC．BallJr，ownerofacompany，saidsalesofvegetableseedsandplantsareupby40%overlastyear，doubletheaveragegrowthoflastfiveyears.Mr.Ballarguesthatsomeofthereasonshavebeenbuildingforthelastfewyears.Thebigoneisthestrikingriseinthecostoffoodlikebreadandmilk，togetherwiththeincreasesinthepriceoffruitsandvegetables.Foodpriceshaveincreasedbecauseofhigheroilprices.Peoplearenowdrivingless，takingfewervacations，sothereismoretimetogarden.【語篇解讀】美國經(jīng)濟的下滑給人們的日常生活帶來了很大影響，特別是蔬菜、水果以及燃油價格飆升，由此人們搶購菜園，種植谷蔬，節(jié)約開支，爭取雙贏。并且蔬菜種植在美國變得越來越受歡迎。64．Whatdoestheword“residents”inParagraph1probablyreferto?A．chickens B．tomatoesC．gardens D．people答案A[詞義猜測題。由第一段中的“Thefamily'soldfarmhousehasbecomeachickenhouse，itsresidentsarrivingnextmonth.”可知：家里的舊農(nóng)舍已被改成雞舍，它的“居民”下個月就搬來。不難推出residents就是指chickens。其他三項“西紅柿”“花園”“人們”均不符合題意。]65．Whyisvegetablegardeningbecomingincreasinglypopular?A．MoreAmericansaredoingitforfun.B．Thepriceofoilislowerthanbefore.C．There'sagrowingneedforfruits.D．Thecostoflivingisontherise答案D[推理判斷題。通讀全文不難推知：由于各種費用的提高，人們才爭購菜園來種植谷蔬，以節(jié)省開支，故種菜才普及起來。]66．Whichofthefollowingmightbethebesttitleforthetext?A．FamilyFoodPlanning B．BankingonGardeningC．ABelt-tighteningMove D．GardeningasaHobby答案B[主旨大意題。文章主要講述了美國人為應對經(jīng)濟滑坡引起的生活費用的提高而用自己種菜的方式來渡過難關(guān)一事。故B項最合適。bankon意為“依靠，指望”。C項“勒緊褲腰帶行動”與文章大意相差甚遠。]DModerninventionshavespeededuppeople'slivesamazingly.Motor-carscoverahundredmilesinlittlemorethananhour，aircraftcrosstheworldinsideaday，whilecomputersoperateatlightningspeed.Indeed，thisloveofspeedseemsnever-ending.Everyyearmotor-carsareproducedwhichgoevenfasterandeachnewcomputerboasts(吹噓)ofsavingprecioussecondsinhandlingtasks.Allthissavestime，butataprice.Whenweloseorgainhalfadayinspeedingacrosstheworldinanairplane，ourbodiestellusso.Wegettheuncomfortablefeelingknownasjet-lag；ourbodiesfeelthattheyhavebeenleftbehindinanothertimezone.Again，spendingtoolongatcomputersresultsinpainfulwristsandfingers.Mobilephonesalsohavetheirdangers，accordingtosomescientists；toomuchusemaytransmitharmfulradiationintoourbrains，aconsequencewedonotliketothinkabout.However，whatdowedowiththetimewehavesaved？Certainlynotrelax，orsoitseems.Wearesoaccustomedtoconstantactivitythatwefinditdifficulttositanddonothing，orevenjustonethingatatime.Perhapsthe_daysarelonggonewhenwemightlistenquietlytoastoryontheradio，lettingimaginationtakeusintoanotherworld.Therewasatimewhensomepeople'slivesweredevotedsimplytothecultivationofthelandorthecareofcattle.Nomulti-taskingthere；theirliveswentonatamuchgentlerpace，andinafamiliarpattern.Thereismuchthatwemightenvyaboutawayoflifelikethis.Yetbeforewedoso，wemustthinkofthehardtasksourancestorsfaced：theyfarmedwithbarehands，oftenlivedclosetohunger，andhadtofashiontoolsfromwoodandstone.Modernmachineryhasfreedpeoplefromthatprimitiveexistence.【語篇解讀】本文講的是現(xiàn)代發(fā)明及其影響，現(xiàn)代科技發(fā)明加快了人們的生活節(jié)奏，為人們節(jié)省了時間，但我們在獲得眾多方便的同時又失去了很多。這是值得我們思考的問題。67．Thenewproductsbecomemoreandmoretime-savingbecause________.A．ourloveofspeedseemsnever-endingB．timeislimitedC．thepricesareincreasinglyhighD．themanufacturersboastalot答案A[細節(jié)理解題。從文章第一段第三句可知A項正確。其他三項文中均未提到。]68．Whatdoes“thedays”inParagraph3referto?A．Imaginarylife.B．Simplelifeinthepast.C．Timesofinventions.D．Timeforconstantactivity.答案B[詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文章下文可知，thedays指的是在現(xiàn)代發(fā)明出現(xiàn)之前的那些簡單的生活時光，因此選B。]69．Whatistheauthor'sattitudetowardsthemoderntechnology?A．Critical.
