【详解】考查非谓语动词。

句意：尽管这套书很昂贵，但是值得买。

本句为worthwhile 的用法，it is worthwhile doing sth或者sth is worthwhile to be done，结合语境可知，本句it 为形式主语，而不是真正主语，故用第一个结构，故选D。

【点睛】关于worth，worthwhile，worthy的用法。

这三个词都有“值得”意思，但是但用法或搭配关系不同。

worth是一个只能作表语的形容词,意思为“值……的”、“相当于……的价值的”、“有……价值的”、“值得……的”。

后接名词、接动名词的主动形式。

例如：This second-hand car is worth $2000 at the most. 这辆二手车最多值2000美元。

The exhibition is worth a visit/visiting.这次展览会值得参观。

worthy可作表语,也可作定语。

作定语时意思为“有价值的”、“值得尊敬的”、“应受到
赏识的”；用作表语时意思为“值得……的”、“应得到……的”,其后接of sth.,也可以后接to do sth.。

例如：①That is worthy of note.那件事值得注意。

②This phenomenon is worthy of being studied.这种现象值得研究。

worthwhile与worthy一样,既可作表语,又可作定语。

表示某事因重要、有趣或受益大而值得花时间、金钱或努力去做,一般做“值得的”、“值得做的”、“有意义的”解.用作表语时,可接动名词或动词不定式。

例如：The Summer Palace is worthwhile going / to go to have a visit.颐和园值得参观。

Helping old people is a worthwhile activity.帮助老人是一个有价值的
活动。

There’s___53___(real) not an easy answer. No one woke up and decided to put the

This first alphabet ___57___(improve)by the Phoenicians around1000 BC,___58___(early)than the Greeks by 200 years, and we have them to thank for vowels (元音) From Greece, our alphabet traveled to

55. evolved
56. what 57. was improved
58. earlier
59. it 60. to help
这是一篇说明文。

文章讲述了大家很熟悉的26个英文字母的由来以及探究了为什么是现在这个顺序呢？
【51题详解】
考查介词。

句意：你可以以很快的速度说ABCs，并且有些人还可以不假思索的将其倒背如流。

空格位于名词短语前，和后边的名词短语一起做say的状语，所以空格处应填介词，与其后名词组成介词短语作状语。

“以很快的速度”应使用介词at，故填at。

【52题详解】
考查动名词。

句意同上。

空格位于介词without后，括弧中给出的是动词think，所以应填动名词作宾语。

故填thinking。

【53题详解】
考查副词。

句意：真的没有一个简单的答案。

空格处单词位于be动词后，修饰be动词或者整句话，应用副词形式。

故填really。

【54题详解】
考查名词的复数形式。

句意：没有一个人醒来就决定把这些字母按那个顺序排列，字母是经过长时期的演变才变成今天这个样子的。

我们知道字母表有26个字母，所以空格处应填letter（字母）的复数形式。

故填letters。

【55题详解】
考查一般过去时。

句意同上。

这句话将字母的演化过程，且由“over a long period of time”
可知，这句话应使用一般过去时。

故填evolved。

【56题详解】
考查宾语从句。

句意同上。

这是一个宾语从句，主句缺宾语，从句缺表语，所以应使用what做连接词。

故填what。

【57题详解】
考查一般过去时的被动语态。

句意：第一个字母表是由腓尼基人在公元前1000年左右改进过的，比希腊人还早200年。

这句话第一个空格处的单词作句子的谓语，This first alphabet与improve之间是被动关系，所以谓语动词使用被动语态。

This first alphabet为第三人称单数形式，所以谓语动词使用第三人称单数。

又由around1000 BC可知，句子使用一般过去时。

故填was improved。

【58题详解】
考查形容词比较级。

句意同上。

这句话将腓尼基人改进字母表的时间与希腊人对比，所以空格处应填形容词比较级，故填earlier。

【59题详解】
考查代词。

句意：罗马人将它变成了现代的字母表，就是我们现在认识的这样。

由and可知，and后是一个完整的句子，分析句子成份，句子缺少宾语。

“turn sth. into…”意为“将……变成……”。

根据句意，sth.应指代前边提到的the alphabet，故用it替代。

故填it。

60题详解】
考查不定式作宾语。

句意：一些学者认为人们记忆中的这个顺序意味着帮助人们记住它。

“meant to do sth.”意为“意味着做某事”，故填to help。

18. Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel, the world’s first igloo(冰屋) hotel.
61 (build) in a small town, it has been attracting lots of visitors but soon the fun will be over. In two weeks’ time，Bergqvst’s ice creation 62 (be) nothing more than a pool of water. “We don’t see it as a big problem,” he says. “We just look forward to 63 (replace) it.”
Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition. It was 64 successful that he designed the present one, 65 measures roughly 200 square meters. Six workmen spent more than eight weeks —piling 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden base；when the snow froze, the base 66 (remove).
After their stay, all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success. 67 no windows, nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0°C, it may seem more like a survival test 68 a relaxing hotel break. “It’s great fun,” Bergqvist explains, “as __69 _ as a good start in survival training.’’
The 70 (popular)of the igloo is beyond doubt：it is now attracting tourists from all over the world. At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms.
参考答案：
61.Built
62.will be
63.replacing
64.so
65.which
66.was removed
67.With
68.than
69.well
70.popularity
【名师点睛】
语法填空是根据首字母提示及短文大意填词的短文阅读。

此题型要求结合文章内容填出单词，所填单词往往与文章的内容息息相关，因而解题前必须通读全文，对全文内容有一个整体的了解，从中获取文章的基本结构、体裁、主题及所使用的语态等信息。

通读后再复读，边读边填词。

填词时应注意所填词的词性，如果是动词，需根据其在句中的意思确定其正确的时态、语态及非谓语动词形式。

比如文章第61小题考查非谓语动词。

句中it指the world’s first igloo hotel和动词build是被动关系，指旅馆被建用过去分词表被动，故填Built. 第62小题考查时态。

根据时间状语In two weeks’ time表将来指两周后，所以动词用将来时，故填will be. 第63小题考查动词形式。

look forward to中的to是介词后面加动词的-ing形式做宾语，故填replacing. 第66小题考查时态语态。

当雪冻结后底座就被移开。

本段是过去时且the base和remove是被动关系，用过去时的被动。

故填was removed.
如果是名词应注意其单复数、所有格的变化。

第70小题考查名词。

此处由The和of
限定用名词，指冰屋的受欢迎度超过了对它的怀疑。

故填名词popularity.
如果是代词应注意其主格、宾格、形容词性物主代词、名词性物主代词、反身代词等的变化。

如果是形容词、副词应注意其等级的变化及两者之间的转化。

如果考查某些语法内容及特殊句式，要牢记语法规则，认真分析。

第65小题考查关系代词。

此处是非限制性定语从句修饰前面的the present one用which引导，故填which.
对于有一定难度的空处，先将其放置一边做后面的，最后再从全篇内容上考虑、分析，仔细体会出题者的意图。

填完所有单词后，必须将所有填的词带入文中再读一遍，仔细检查自己所填的词是否与文章的情境、内容一致，读起来是否流畅，单词拼写是否正确，单词形式是否恰当等，发现问题应及时纠正。

三、阅读理解
19. Dogs are likely to have complex emotions such as jealousy(嫉妒)and pride, according to
a new scientific research.
Dogs feel very jealous when they find that they are unfairly treated. And they do not like seeing their owners being kind to other creatures, especially other dogs. They often react negatively(消极地)when their owners bring home new pets, the resear ch found. “Dogs show a
strong aversion to unfair treatment,” Dr. Friederike Range of the Vienna University said.
At first, people believed most animals lack(缺少)the “sense of self” , which is needed to experience so-called secondary emotions such as jealousy, embarrassment or guilt. These emotions are more complex than feelings such as anger or joy.
Besides dogs research, another research includes cows, horse, cats and sheep, and all the results have shown that animals are far more self-aware than we thought.
Dr Paul Morris, a psychologist at the University of Portsmouth who studies animal emotions, told The Sunday Times, “We are learning that dogs, horses, and perhaps many other species are far more emotionally complex than we ever realized. They can suffer simple forms of many emotions we once thought only primates (灵长类) could experience. ”
In research among dog owners, Dr Morris found almost all of them reported jealous behavior by their pets. The dog often tried to keep their owner away from a new lover in the early days of a relationship.
Behavioral experts suggest that owners should keep a close relationship with the dog as usual when a new pet or child comes along in order to prevent jealous activity from the dog such as interruptions with barking.
12. What is the new discovery about the relationship between dogs and human?
A. Dogs usually have more emotions than humans
B. Dogs are often treated unfairly by humans
C. Humans are angry about their dogs’ negative reactions
D. Dogs feel unhappy when their owners show kindness to other creatures
13. What does the underlined word “aversion” in the second paragraph mean?
A. Internet
B. Dislike
C. Concern
D. Fear
14. What does the “the sense of self” in the third paragraph probably mean?
A. It is a complex feeling that belongs to humans
B. It is a kind of ability to feel other people’s emotions
C. It is a necessary awareness to feel some complex emotions
D. It is a kind of emotion which is based on anger or joy
15. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the fourth and fifth paragraphs?
A. The research includes four kinds of animals
B. Animals are more self-aware than humans
C. Dogs experience more emotions than primates
D. Animals are emotionally complex
参考答案：

选D.
13. 词义猜测题。

根据unfairly treated和unfair treatment，可推，根据不开心。

选B.
14. 推理判断题。

15. 细节理解题。

根据dogs, horses, and perhaps many other species are far more emotionally complex than we ever realized. They can suffer simple forms of many emotions（许多物种远比我们知道的情感复杂，它们能遭受多种简单情感）可知选D.
20. 请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Al though women lead healthier, longer lives, the cruel opinion that they become "old” sooner than men is widespread in the workplace, research shows.
A survey of more than 2,600 managers and personnel professionals showed that age discrimination is not only common in the workplace, but is shot through with inconsistencies (矛盾).
Six in ten managers reported being a victim of age discrimination -- usually because they were turned down for a job for being too old or too young. Yet more than a fifth admitted that they used age as an important standard.
Although the survey found widespread agreement that older workers were better than younger colleagues when it came to reliability, commitment (承担义务), loyalty (忠诚) and customer service, these qualities were not necessarily considered to be worthy of advancement.
A large number of persons believed that workers between 30 and 39 had the best promotion chances, with only 2 per cent giving examples of 50-year-olds or above.
There was evidence that people were considered old at different ages in different jobs.
A young man working in IT said he was considered too old by the age of 28.
In fact there was no evidence to suggest that older workers were less valuable to companies than younger workers, in fact the opposite was often true because older workers often brought experience.
The findings also suggested that the Government's ideas on age in the workforce may also be out of step with reality.
52.Which is the discrimination mentioned in this passage?
A. The healthier women are, the sooner they will lose their jobs.
B. Society knows women should be respected, but it doesn't offer them any jobs.
C. Female managers respect male workers, but male managers don't respect female workers.
D. victims of age discrimination consider age as an important standard.
53.Older workers are better than younger colleagues because they have many advantages except that they are _____.
A. dependable
B. married
C. faithful
D. helpful
54.Why does the writer mention a young man working in IT?
A. Because the writer thinks it a pity that this young man is old.
B. Because it's an example of different age standards in different jobs.
C. Because IT industry is developing too fast.
D. Because the writer doesn't think the young man is old.
55. Which statement is true according to the writer's attitude?
A. The present age standard doesn't go with reality.
B. The present age standard is reasonable.
C. women should work longer than men.
D. Young workers should learn from old workers.
