正确答案:B
解析:此题考查副词too的用法,首先too用于too...to…结构中表示否定意义“太……而不能……”。
第二点,too为副词,其后不可接a/an,要先接形容词,然后接a/an,其结构为too+形容词+a/an+单数名词(这种结果中只能用单数可数名词),类似的词有“so”,故选B。

A.because

正确答案:D
解析:此句中,主语为reason,谓语动词为系动词was,缺少的是表语,而because引导原因状语从句,which,why引导定语从句。
在该句中that引导的从句作表语。
故应选D.

B.through
C.on

A.didn’t hear
B.hasn’t been hearing
C.hasn’t heard
D.hadn’t heard

对将来情况的假设,条件从句的形式为:If+主语+should/were to+动词原形。

A.where I’d like to visit
B.in which I’d like to visit
C.I most want to visit
D.that I want to visit it most
正确答案:C
解析:定语从句。
先行词place在定语从句中充当宾语,而A,B两项中where 和inwhich在从句中作状语,D项结构错误。

A.being
B.been
C.to be
D.having been

解析:分词短语作状语。
分词一般式引导的短语作状语与谓语表示的状态或动作是同时或几乎同时发生的,完成式引导的短语作状语先于谓语表示的状态或动作,作原因状语相当于as,since,because引导的从句。
been不能单独作句子的成分;to be作目的状语,而不作原因状语;该句中being所引导的状语与谓语表示的状态同时发生,故选A。

解析:本题考查固定短语的用法与区别。
a large amount of意为“许多,大量”。
alarge number of意为“许多,大量”。
a large sum of意为“许多,大量”。
information为不可数名词,因此修饰它的数量词也应用不可数形式。
deal可修饰不可数名词,常构成a great/good deal of,但不能说a large deal of;amount可构成a large amountof,修饰不可数名词;a large number of只修饰可数名词复数;
a large sum of一般用来修饰金钱。
28.Space scientists believe that the black hole is______and would draw everything, even light, toward its center.
A.hollow
B.vacant
C.blank
D.empty
正确答案:A
解析:本题考查近义形容词辨析。
hollow意为“空的;空虚的”。
vacant意为“空的,空闲的,空虚的”。
blank意为“空白的,空虚的”。
empty意为“空的,空洞的,空虚的”。
empty与hollow的含义很近,经常换用,但hollow强调“中空”,empty没有这层意思。
根据题意,黑洞正因为是中空,外部压力大于内部压力,产生吸力,所以选A,其余不符合题意。
29.Most people can’t______the day without at least one cup of tea or coffee.
A.get through
B.get on
C.get at

正确答案:A
解析:本题考查关于get的一组动词短语的区别。
get through sth.意为“干完,完成;度过(时间)”。
get on意为“相处融洽;继续”。
get at意为“到达;够到;意思是”。
get by意为“通过;过得去,(勉强)过活”,为不及物动词短语,如:get by on a smallincome靠微薄的收入过活,所以不能选。

Reading Comprehension
If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question. It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4 000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write. Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history”. Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.
41.Which of the following ideas is not conveyed in the passage?______.
A.Remembered history, compared with written history, is less reliable
B.Written records of the past plays a most important role in our learning of the human history
C.A written account of our daily activities helps us to be able to answer any questions
D.Where there are no written records, there is no history
正确答案:D
解析:D项与文章最后一段矛盾。
42.We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because______.
A.there was nothing worth being written down at that time
B.the people there ignored the importance of keeping a record
C.the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire
D.the people there had not known how to write
正确答案:D
解析:D项与文章第二段最后一句意思相符。
43.“Remembered history”refers to______.
A.history based on a person’s imagination
B.stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth
C.songs and dances about the most important events
D.both B and C
正确答案:D
解析:从文章最后一段前三行中能归纳出来。
44.“Remembered history”is regarded as valuable only when______.

B.no written account is available
C.it proves to be true
D.people are interested in it
正确答案:B
解析:文章最后一段最后一句点明此意。

A.kept a written record of every past event
B.not burnt their written records in wars
C.told exact stories of the most important happenings

正确答案:A
解析:在文章最后一段三至五行找。
“Twenty years ago, if you were Chinese and were looking for a job in one of Hong Kong’s large business companies, you would have needed to brush up your English for the interview, because in those days you could be very sure the interview would be in English. “The panel might consist of two”Expatriates”and two Chinese, but they would all use English in the interview. Things have changed considerably these days in Hong Kong. As 1997 approaches, the day to day spoken language of business in many of the large companies is Chinese(i. e. Cantonese, the language of Hong Kong). English is used only when necessary, for instance when dealing with “foreigners “by which is meant not simply native speakers of English,
American, British Canadians, Australians and others, but also businessmen and women from other Asian countries like Japan, India, Korea, Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines, and from European countries like Germany, France and Holland. In addition, a new important factor in the business language equation of Hong Kong is the increasing importance of Mandarin, the link language of Mainland China. Hong Kong’s business life increasingly depends on its being a through-port between China and the world and as the date of China’s takeover of Hong Kong approaches, more Mandarin speaking Chinese are coming to Hong Kong to do business. This puts new pressure on the local Cantonese to learn Mandarin. With localization of top management in Hong Kong companies going ahead very fast, the days are gone when a bright young manager, with his London MBA and maybe good Scottish family connections, could come to Hong Kong and sail into a job, after a cursory interview conducted in English by a wholly expatriate interview panel. Nowadays the panel is likely to consist of sophisticated Chinese, with their Harvard MBA and good Hong Kong family connections, and this panel will be looking for good Mandarin as much as good manners.
46.In the first paragraph the word” expatriate” refers to______.
A.expert
B.director
C.foreigner
D.English
正确答案:C
解析:expatriate“移居国外者,侨民”。
47.Why do local Cantonese learn Mandarin?
A.For international trade.
B.To go to the mainland.
C.For the reintegration.
D.For the development of their business.
正确答案:D
解析:第三段说,越来越多的说普通话的大陆中国人来到香港做生意,给当地人新的压力,他们纷纷学说普通话。
所以比较准确的是“为了发展他们的生意”。
48.How will the panel be composed after 1997?
A.Mainly English directors.
B.Mainly Chinese directors.
C.Experts with London MBA.
D.Persons with Hong Kong family connects.
正确答案:B
解析:最后一段说,如今面试小组主要由经验丰富的中方人士组成。
他们可能有良好的香港家庭背景,但这未必是必要条件。
49.What will be expected for a business manager?
A.A good Mandarin.
B.Good manners.
C.Higher educational background.
D.All of the above.
正确答案:D
解析:最后一段可以看出。
优雅的风度、漂亮的普通话,以及好的教育都是必要条件。
50.The passage implies______.
A.Hong Kong plays an important part in the trade between China and the world B.Cantonese is the official language of Hong Kong
C.English is the mostly-used language in business
D.Mandarin is as important as English in business
正确答案:A
解析:第三段指出,香港作为连接中国和世界的转口贸易港口,它的商业命运日益依赖于这种地位。
所以A对。
“Don’t trust anyone over 30” was a catchword(口号)of the youth culture in the past decades. Now that saying is being turned on its head as America undergoes a transformation from a society for youth into a nation in which middle-aged and elderly people set the pace by mere force of number. For the first time in U. S. history, there are more people of 65 and over in the population than teenagers, and by 1990 the number of older citizens is expected to exceed 31 million, while the teenager population shrinks to 23 million. The rise of 30 and 40-olds means an expanding market of housing, furniture, computers and other high-tech goods. The increase in middle-aged Americans, along with the rise in families with both husband and wife working, forecasts an explosion of buying power as large numbers of people have more to spend. Further along on the age scale, a growing market for luxury items and travel services among” the active rich” over 50 is found. Products aimed at this section range from magazines to sun glasses. These changes are bringing a new look to advertising. Couples with children as well as older people are now commonly shown in ads for everything from cars to frozen foods. Films are changing, too. Two recent box-office hits that appeal to an older audience deal with subjects of interest to adults. The aging of the population is also producing a drop in the crime rate. Studies show that young people are more likely to be lawbreakers. As their numbers decrease, so does crime. Spending preferences are being affected. Researchers say that many communities are putting more emphasis on keeping property taxes down, even if that means spending less on schools. Schools have
become less important and long-term health care more important as America becomes a society with fewer children and more old people.
51.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A.People over 30 play the leading role in society because of their maturity and experience.
B.The generation gap between the young and the old in the US has become even greater today.
C.American society is shifting from being youth-centered to older-people-centered.
D.Don’t trust anyone under 30is the new catchword of the American people.
正确答案:C
解析:第一段二至三行点明美国社会的老龄化转型,故选C。
52.Which of the following can be learned from Para. 2?
A.People over 50 spend less money on luxury items.
B.Young people have become more economic because they earn less money.
C.The increase of older generations has helped growth of American economy.
D.Middle-aged or elderly models are more welcome in American commercials today.
正确答案:C
53.The aging of American society has resulted in______.

正确答案:A
Usually the primary purpose of textbook writing is to inform. In textbooks, authors well-informed in a particular subject or discipline identify the terms, facts, and opinions considered essential to an understanding of the field. While authors’personal interests play a role in what terms or facts are selected and how they are interpreted, the writing bears a primary or central goal which is not to persuade you to see things from the same perspective. In fact, textbook authors frequently give equal time to opposing points of view so that readers can draw their own conclusion. However, as you turn from your textbooks to the pages of newspapers and magazines, you may encounter writers with other primary goals. Some write to entertain; others write simply to air a personal preference. However, a good portion of the writers you encounter, particularly on the editorial(社论)pages, write in the hope that you will share or at least seriously consider adopting their opinion. They write, in short, with the desire to persuade. To achieve that goal, they may well give you an argument. That doesn’t mean they force you or threaten you. It means they offer a conclusion—the opinion they want you to share—along with some reasons why you should share it. Critical readers try, first of all, to recognize those writers who wish to persuade. Then they analyze the arguments these writers provide. Authors who give you arguments frequently offer a value judgement—” While zoos may be fun for people, they are not so pleasant for animals. “Or they claim that some event, action, or behavior should or should not take place—”If the name of the accused is published, the name of the accuser should be published as well. “Or else they insist that some belief or attitude should or should not be shared—” People must stop believing that the earth can absorb repeated environmental damage and continue to sustain life. “56.What does the passage say about writings?
A.Textbook writers are usually better informed in their subjects.
B.Textbook writers are more objective than other types of writers.
C.Editorials aim at sharing facts with the readers.
D.All magazine articles have the aim to share opinions with the readers.

C.they do not accept the arguments provided by the article
D.they are able to distinguish between facts and opinions given in the article

Translation
Section ADirections: Translate the following English into Chinese.
81.Professor Huntington’s paper greatly inspired me. According to him, in a plural society, there will inevitably be different opinions. The key is to deal with
them in such a way that they can play a constructive rather than destructive role. He argues that in a plural society we must stress Interpersonal relationships. cooperation, and look at issues from the perspective of other people. If some groups regard themselves as superior and treat other ethnic groups or religions with disrespect, the whole society may be paralyzed. I am convinced that if we put into practice the ideas mentioned above, then there is the possibility of creating a new civilization.
正确答案:亨廷顿(Huntington)教授的论文使我深受启发。
他认为在一个多元化社会里,不同意见是不可避免的。
关键在于怎样正确对待不同意见,使之发挥建设性而非破坏性的作用。
他还说,在一个多元化社会里,我们必须注意人际关系,强调合作,多从他人的角度考虑问题。
如果某些群体自视高人一等,不尊重其他种族或宗教,那么整个社会有可能陷入瘫痪。
我相信,要是我们把上述的想法付诸实践,那我们就有可能创造出一种新的文明。

Many people are asking, “Do I need to be honest?” Yes, we should be honest. First, honesty is essentially important in building up trust among people. If we lose this moral standard, the world would be out of order because there is no trust among people. Therefore, it is every person’s responsibility to keep this virtue so that the society will not fall apart. Secondly, to be honest brings benefits to people around you. Your honesty will help your co-workers and company work successfully. Your spouse and your children will be happy and feel safe. Your friends will always come to you when they need help. Finally, you yourself will benefit from being honest. People will respect, trust and love you. You will be blessed by having a stable marriage, a prosperous career, many friends and more importantly, a peaceful heart. It pays to be honest, but it is definitely worthwhile because you will get more than what you pay. Your life will be meaningful as you will be appreciated and remembered as an honest person.。
