1.America has had many Presidents who have been famous all over the world. People from other countries know the names Washington, Kennedy and so on. However, many men who have served as President of the United States have not been famous in other parts of the world. One example is J.Q .Adams, the sixth man to serve as U.S.President.
Very little happened while Adams was President. It was an unhappy time for him, and he wasn't very effective, when his term ended, he went back to the Congress and served as a representative sentative(众议院议员). While he was
in Congress, people began to respect him more than they had done while he was President. Adams was strongly against slavery and tried to outlaw it in Washington D.C.People began to look back on his presidency with a different view. Now they saw that he was an independent man with high ideal who loved his country and hated slavery Adams died in 1848 while speaking in the House of Representative.

8.One of the quickest and most effective ways to improve your vocabulary is by learning to recognize the most common Latin and Greek roots, since any one of them can help you define a number of English words. Whenever you come upon an unfamiliar word, first check to see if it has a recognizable root. If you know that the Latin root "ami" for example, means like or love, you can easily figure out that "amiable" means pleasant, friendly and "amorous" means loving. Even ff you cannot define a word exactly, recognizing the root will still give you a general idea of the word's meaning. Remembering that
the Greek root "geo" means earth would certainly help you define "geophysics" as the physics of the earth, but it also might help you figure out that "geocentric" has to do with the center of the earth or with the earth as a center. Begin by studying the following lists of common Latin and Greek roots and representative words.
The word "geochemistry" most probably means the chemistry of ______. A.the earth B.the moon C.the ocean D.the minerals

29.What’s the woman doing?
[A] She is learning to ride a bicycle.
[B] She is helping the boy learn to ride a bicycle.
[C] She is holding the bicycle
参考答案
1.A解析：从文章第二段第一、二句：Very little happened while Adams
was president．It was an unhappy time for him，and he wasn't very effective... 可以得知。

故本题答案为A。

2.B解析：根据文章第二段第二句“The news passed by word of mouth…”可知在过去，新闻是口头传播的。

3.B解析：第二段中我们可以看出，UNESCO是联合国的一个组织。

故本题答案为B。

4.C解析：从文章第二、三段可以看出父亲匆忙回家是要赶着去锻炼。

5.C解析：最后一段指出，虽然这项运动风靡一时，但仍然有人惧怕从山路上冲下来(may be chicken about schussing down mountainsides)；
[A]并不与运动的普遍性构成让步关系；至于asking for instructions 和curious about the sport文中并未提及。

6.C解析：作者认为狗是比猫费心的宠物，因为猫喜欢我们的房子，只要住的地方安全，它就会非常地满足。

而狗则不同，你必需在它很小的时候花很多的精力去训练它，如果你不住在农村，没有机会让狗自由活动的话，你还必须给它这样的机会。

而且你最好在三个月以前就买回来，这样有利于和主人培养感情。

可见养狗是多么的费心。

7.B
8.A解析：文中解释了“geophysics”的词义，由此可推测geochemistry 的词义。

注意：该词是由geo+ chemistry 构成。

9.C解析：文中第三段有"The first coins in England were made of tin．"之句，与[C]In England一致，所以本题答案为[C]。

10.B解析：A、C、D项显然错误，而B项Mr．Reese 和同伴们都不走运是正确的。

故本题答案为B。

11.C
12.D解析：no=not a，根据前面他的经历，看起来几乎没有适合他的工作。

故选D。

13.A解析：normal是指“(人的精神，身体)正常发育的，标准的”，这里指Frank智力水平很低，是表身体与精神状况的。

common是指“普通的，常见的，平凡的”。

14.D
15.C解析：根据句意“即使我和他的观点不一致，但我仍认为Jaure是个诚实的人”。

“即便”用even though来表达。

16.A
17.B解析：根据本句句意：在世界的一些地方，茶是被用来和牛奶加糖一起上桌的。

故本题答案为B。

18.C
19.B
20.A解析：固定用法，“在公司内部”用“in the company”。

故本题答案为A。

21.B根据下文“我本来是一个铁石心肠、没有多少同情心的人”可知小男孩Michael“改变了我的人生”。

22.D本题考查句意理解和固定搭配。

本句意为：我想我可以在这儿住几天，远离希格斯和他的爪牙。

out of reach意为“够不到”。

23.C本题考查词义辨析。

route意为“路线，路途”；track意为“(车辆、人、动物等行走时留下的)踪迹，足迹，痕迹”；way意为“(做某事)方法，方式，手段”；path意为“小路，小径”。

24.D本题考查动词词义的辨析。

句意：一些女性结婚后会改姓丈夫的姓。

take…in place of．．．是“用…替换…”的意思。

25.A根据上下文，“他”应该是“呻吟着以手掩面(cover)”，而不是把脸转向(turn)某一边，把脸藏起来(hide)或用手触摸脸颊(touch)。

26.D考查动词辨义和上下文理解。

need指“需要”，know指“认识，知道，了解”，like指“喜欢”，remember指“记起，记得”。

由上下文与常识可知，这里是指那名患者说作者可能不记得他，故选[D]。

有一部分考生误选了[B]项，但由于作者与患者在后者患病时已经见过面，所以说作者不know那名患者是不对的。
