2016年天津市高考英语试卷试题及解析
2016年天津市高考英语试卷第一部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分15分）1．（1分）﹣﹣﹣It was a wonderful trip．So，which city did you like better，Paris or Rome？﹣﹣﹣______．There were good things and bad things about them．（）A．It's hard to say B．I didn't get itC．You must be kidding D．Couldn't be better【分析】﹣﹣﹣这是一次非常棒的旅行，那么你更喜欢哪个城市，巴黎还是罗马？﹣﹣﹣很难说，它们都既有好的还有不好的东西．【解答】答案A．It's hard to say很难说；I didn't get it我不明白；You must be kidding你一定在开玩笑；Couldn't be better再好不过了．根据下文语境"There were good things and bad things about them"可知答案选A．2．（1分）The dictionary is ______：many words have been added to the language since it was published．（）A．out of control B．out of dateC．out of sight D．out of reach【分析】这本字典过时了，因为从它发行后，很多单词加入到了语言里．【解答】答案B．out of control失控，out of date过期，out of sight，不在视线内（Out of sight，out of mind．眼不见，心不烦．），out of reach，够不着，拿不到．根据冒号后面的解释﹣﹣many words have been added to the language since it was published，since表示自（一个时间点）以来，可知字典已经过时了，很多词都不在字典里．3．（1分）When walking down the street，I came across David，who I _____ for years．（）A．didn't see B．haven't seen C．hadn't seen D．wouldn't see【分析】当我沿着街道散步的时候，我偶然遇到了多年未见的戴维．【解答】答案：C．根据"I came across David，"可知偶遇戴维是在过去，而"not see"这个动作发生在"come across"之前，是过去的过去发生的动作，用过去完成时．选项A是一般过去时，表示过去某个时间点发生的动作；选项B是现在完成时，表示从过去某个时间点开始的动作，一直持续到现在；选项D是过去将来时，表示从过去的某一时间来看将来要发生的动作或存在的状态4．（1分）The cooling wind swept through out bedroom windows，____ air conditioning unnecessary．（）A．making B．to make C．made D．being made【分析】清凉的风吹过卧室的窗户，使得开空调没有必要．【解答】答案：A making现在分词；to make动词不定式；made过去式；being made分词的被动．题干中，make后接宾语，要用主动；前面是一个完整的简单句，后面要用非谓语动词作结果状语，5．（1分）It was really annoying；I _____ get access to the data bank you had recommended．（）A．wouldn't B．couldn't C．shouldn't D．needn't【分析】真烦人．我无法使用你推荐的数据库．【解答】答案：B wouldn't不会；couldn't不能；shouldn't不应该；needn't不必．根据前面的句子，It was really annoying．真让人心烦．可以知道应该是没法使用数据库，所以用couldn't，6．（1分）﹣﹣﹣I'm thinking of going back to school to get another degree．﹣﹣﹣Sounds great!_____．（）A．It all depends B．Go for itC．Never mind D．No wonder【分析】﹣我在想回去上学再拿一个学位．﹣听起来很棒！努力争取吧．【解答】答案：B．A．那就看情况而定了；B．努力争取；C．没关系；D．难怪．根据后面的Sounds great可知应该是认可对方的想法，所以选择Go for it最符合语境；7．（1分）______ the average age of the population increases，there are more and more old people to care for．（）A．Unless B．UntilC．As D．While【分析】随着人口平均年龄的增长，越来越多的老人需要照顾．【解答】答案C．A．unless，表示除非；B．until 表示直到…为止；D．while 当…时．干扰项D项while 引导时间状语从句，表示"当…时"，动词为延续性动词，表示持续的动作，强调状态．如，While I'm driving，I always listen to the radio．as 引导的从句的动作和主句的动作通常是同时发生变化，有伴随的意味；而while没有这种意味．as引导时间状语从句，表示动作发生的背景和前提条件，且从句中的动作和主句中的动作是同时发生，从句的动词通常为延续性动词．根据本句句意，表示"随着"，应为as．8．（1分）Mary was silent during the early part of the discussion but finally she ____ her opinion on the subject．（）A．gave voice to B．kept an eye onC．turned a deaf ear to D．set foot on【分析】句意：玛丽在讨论的初期阶段沉默不语，不过最后她发表了对该问题的看法．【解答】答案A．本题考查的是动词短语的辨析，"give voice to"说出意见；"keep an eye on"密切注视，留意；"turn a deaf ear to"对…置之不理；"set foot on"踏上，登上．根据句意，最后她"说出了自己的意见"，9．（1分）We will put off the picnic in the park until next week，____ the weather may be better．（）A．that B．where C．which D．when【分析】我们将推迟野餐到下周，那时候天气可能会好点儿．【解答】答案D本题考查非限制性定语从句．从句缺少时间状语，即next week．因而关系副词应该用when．10．（1分）The weather forecast says it will be cloudy with a slight _____ of rain later tonight．（）A．effect B．sense C．change D．chance【分析】天气预报说今天会是多云并且后半夜可能有雨．【解答】答案D．A．影响；B．感觉；C．改变；D．机会，可能性．a slight chance of…表示有…的可能性/机会，符合句意，11．（1分）The manager put forward a suggestion ____ we should have an assistant．There is too much work to do．（）A．whether B．that C．which D．what【分析】经理提出了一个建议﹣﹣﹣我们需要一个助理．（因为）我们有太多的工作要做了．【解答】答案B．引导同位语从句的连词有that，whether，连接副词how，when，where等．（注：if，which 不能引导同位语从句．）因此可以先排除C．D项what we should have an assistant不合语法，也可以排除．A项whether we should have an assistant 与句意不符合．可排除A．故选B．第一个句子结构完整，宾语为a suggestion，后面的内容是作为suggestion的补充说明﹣﹣we should have an assistant（我们需要一个助理）．此处需用that连接，that不作任何成分，只起到连接的作用，同位语前面补充说明的内容可以和that 同位语从句的内容划等号，因此这里的suggestion就是we should have an assistant．12．（1分）I'm going to _____ advantage of this tour to explore the history of the castle．（）A．put B．make C．take D．give【分析】我将利用这段旅程来探索这个城堡的历史．【解答】答案C．结合句意可知，这里要表达的是"利用"，跟advantage相关的"利用"的短语为take advantage of sth．13．（1分）You are waiting at a wrong place．It is at the hotel ____ the coach picks up tourists．（）A．who B．which C．where D．that【分析】你等车的地点错了．大客车是在旅店接送游客的．【解答】答案：D．本句如果将句首的It is去掉，则仍然构成了一个完整结构的句子：at the hotel the coach picks up tourists；所以该句为强调句，其结构是：It is/was+强调部分+that+其余部分，如果强调部分是人，也可以用who，这句话强调的是地点状语at the hotel．14．（1分）I hate it when she calls me at work﹣I'm always too busy to _____ a conversation with her．（）A．carry on B．break into C．turn down D．cut off【分析】句意：我讨厌她在上班时给我电话﹣﹣我总是太忙了没时间和她进行交谈．【解答】答案A．本题考查动词短语的辨析"carry on"继续，参与，进行"；"break into"强行闯入，成功打入（某行业或领域）；"turn down"声音调小，拒绝"；"cut off"切断，中短．根据句意是，我太忙了，没有时间和她进行交谈．这里"carry on a conversation with"与…进行会话．15．（1分）I was wearing a seatbelt．If I hadn't been wearing one，I ____．（）A．were injured B．would be injuredC．had been injured D．would have been injured【分析】当时我正系着安全带，如果我没系的话，我就会受伤了．【解答】答案：D该句"I was wearing a seatbelt．"使用了过去进行时，表示过去的事实状况，意为：当时我正系着安全带；if从句中使用了过去完成时，表达了与过去事实相反的情况，即"如果我没系上安全带的话"；通过以上分析可知：本句是虚拟条件句，由于从句使用了过去完成时，那么主句就应该使用would have done的形式，这里injured是形容词；第二节：完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）16．（30分）The journey my daughter Cathy has had with her swimming is as long as it is beautiful．Cathy suffered some terrible （16）in her early

unachievable．You begin to realize that your boy，in your footsteps，could probably accomplish what you hoped for．But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions．My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten．Science projects waited until the last moment．Book reports weren't written until the final threat．I've been a newspaperman all my adult life．My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English．But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo﹣tech"student（技校学生）．They're called"motorheads"by the rest of the student body．When a secretary in my office first called him"motorhead"，I was shocked．"Hey，he's a good kid，"I wanted to say．"And smart，really．"I learned later that motorheads are，indeed，different．They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes．And they don't often make school honor rolls（光荣榜）．But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education．We who labor in clean shirts in offices don't have the abilities that motorheads have．I began to learn this when I had my car crashed．The cost to repair it was estimated at $800．"Hey，I can fix it，"said Jody．I doubted it，but let him go ahead，for I had nothing to lose．My son，with other motorheads，fixed the car．They got parts（零件）from a junkyard，non﹣toasting toaster have been fixed．Neighbours and co﹣workers trust their car repair to him．Since that first repair job，a broken air﹣conditioner，a non﹣functioning washer and a non﹣toasting toaster have been fixed．Neighbors and co﹣workers trust their car repairs to him．These kids are happiest when doing repairs．They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world．And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes．I have learned a lot from my motorhead：publishers need printers，engineers need mechanics，and architects need builders．Most important，I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else．My son may never make the school honor roll．But he made mine．41．What used to be the author's hope for his son？A．To avoid becoming his clone．B．To resemble him in appearance．C．To develop in a different direction．D．To reach the author's unachieved goals．42．What can we learn about the author's children？A．His daughter does better in school．B．His daughter has got a master's degree．C．His son tried hard to finish homework．D．His son couldn't write his book reports．43．The author let his son repair the car because he believed that．A．His son had the ability to fix it．B．it would save him much time．C．it wouldn't cause him any more lossD．other motorheads would come to help．44．In the author's eyes，motorheads are．A．tidy and hardworkingB．cheerful and smartC．lazy but brightD．relaxed but rude45．What did the author realize in the end？A．It is unwise to expect your child to follow your path．B．It is important for one to make the honor roll．C．Architects play a more important role than builders．D．Motorheads have greater ability than office workers．【分析】本文先讲述了一种社会现象﹣﹣父母希望孩子成为自己的"克隆"，希望孩子能继续"接力"自己年轻时的任务．随后作者通过记叙自己在校表现并不优异的儿子的帮自己修好了车的事例来表达观点﹣﹣出版社需要打字员，工程需要技工，建筑行业需要建造者，每个人都有自己的价值，只要用在合适的地方．作者为自己的儿子感到骄傲，虽然他从未上过学校的光荣榜．【解答】41﹣﹣45DACBA41．D 推理判断题．本题需理解作者一开始对儿子的寄望是什么．由第一段的第一句话可以推断出来Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone，not in features but in footsteps．（每个人都希望他的儿子成为自己某方面的克隆，不是外表的克隆，而是在"传承"上的克隆．）可见，作者也是其中之一．因此答案为D．42．A 细节理解题．解答此题的关键词在于the author's children，因此需要在文中找出有关作者孩子的信息．由第三段My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English．But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo﹣tech"student（技校学生）．They're called"motorheads"by the rest of the student body．可以找到，作者的女儿是大学生，正准备攻读英语类的研究生．而儿子却被其他学生叫做"motorhead"．可见，女儿的在校表现比儿子要好．因此答案为A．43．C 细节理解题．在第五段可以找到答案．I doubted it，but let him go ahead，for I had nothing to lose．可知，我让儿子修车的原因是﹣﹣我并没有什么损失．因此答案为C．44．B 深层理解题．本题需要判断作者情感态度．由倒数第二段可以找到信息，These kids are happiest when doing repairs．They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world．And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes．可知，答案为B．45．A 深层理解题．本题需猜测作者情感态度．由最后一段可知作者想要表达的全文的中心思想．publishers need printers，engineers need mechanics，and architects need builders．Most important，I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else．My son may never make the school honor roll．But he made mine．作者对社会上的普遍观点是持否定态度的﹣﹣希望自己孩子"继承"自己的志愿是不明智的．46．（12.5分）When John was growing up，other kids felt sorry for him．His parents always had him weeding the garden，carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers．But when John reached adulthood，he was better off than his childhood playmates．He had more job satisfaction，a better marriage and was healthier．Most of all，he was happier．Far happier．These are the findings of a 40﹣year study that followed the lives of 456teenage boys from Boston．The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not．"Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence （能力）and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society，"said George Vaillant，the psychologist （心理学家）who madethe discovery．"And because they felt good about themselves，others felt good about them．"Vaillant's study followed these males in great detail．Interviews were repeated at ages 25，31and 47．Under Vaillant，the researchers compared the men's mental﹣health scores with their boyhood﹣activity scores with their boyhood﹣activity scores．Points were awarded for part﹣time jobs，housework，effort in school，and ability to deal with problems．The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp．Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people，five times as likely to be well paid and 16times less likely to have been unemployed．The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out．Working﹣﹣﹣﹣at any age﹣﹣﹣﹣is important．Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility，independence，confidence and competence﹣﹣﹣the underpinnings （基础）of emotional health．They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals．The most competent adults are those who know how to do this．Yet work isn't everything．As Tolstoy once said，"One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love，to work for the person one loves and to love one's work．"46．What do we know about John？A．He enjoyed his career and marriage．B．He had few childhood playmates．C．He received little love from his family．D．He was envied by others in his childhood．47．Vaillant's words in Paragraph 2 serve as．A．a description of personal values and social valuesB．an analysis of how work was related to competenceC．an example for parents'expectations of their childrenD．an explanation why some boys grew into happy men48．Vaillant's team obtained their findings by．A．recording the boys'effort in schoolB．evaluating the men's mental healthC．comparing different sets of scoresD．measuring the men's problem solving ability49．What does the underlined word"sharp"probably mean in Paragraph 4？A．Quick to reactB．Having a thin edgeC．Clear and definiteD．sudden and rapid50．What can be inferred from the last paragraph？A．competent adults know more about love than work．B．Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life．C．Love brings more joy to people than work does．D．Independence is the key to one's success．【分析】一项实验表明﹣﹣从小帮忙做家务和其他事情的孩子，长大后也不会太差，甚至非常出色．本文先从一个叫John的男孩的事例开始说起．John从小就要帮忙做事情，其他小朋友都很同情他．然而，等他长大后，他却大有作为﹣﹣有满意的工作，幸福的婚姻，健康的体魄而且生活得更加快乐．Vaillant的实验时长40年，在这40年里，对456名来自波士顿的青少年进行了长期的跟踪．最后发现﹣﹣从小开始帮忙做事的孩子建立起了较强的责任感，独立，自信以及其他能力，这些孩子能够容易与更广泛的人群建立良好的人际关系，能够获得丰厚的收入以及解决问题的能力﹣﹣知道如何与人协作以达到共同的目标．因而，从本文可知，无论什么年龄，有事做都非常重要，从小就需要培养孩子的做事能力．有能力的人知道怎样与人合作，以及知道工作并不是一切，高情商是获得精彩人生的必需．【解答】46．A 细节理解题．由原文第一段可知，John长大后有了美满的婚姻和生活．B项没有提及；C项没有提及父母让John做各种事情的目的，但从全文可以知道，是为了锻炼他的能力；D项错误，由第一段原句可知other kids felt sorry for him，是为他难过．47．D 分析理解题．原文第二段找到Villiant的话，Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society（在家里或社群里获得能力的孩子会感受到自己的社会价值），以及最后一句And because they felt good about themselves，others felt good about them （因为他们对自己的感觉良好/对自己的肯定度高，所以别人也对他们的感觉良好），因而是解释孩子们感觉良好的原因，故选D．48．C 细节理解题．由第三段Points were awarded for part﹣time jobs，housework，effort in school，and ability to deal with problems．可知，分数奖励自兼职，家务劳动，在学校的表现以及解决问题的能力49．C 推理判断题．由sharp这个句子后面紧接着的句子提到的数据和内容可知，从小做事情和长大后成为什么样的人之间的联系非常明显．故sharp意为clear and definitely．50．B 深层理解题．最后一段The most competent adults are those who know how to do this．Yet work isn't everything．（有能力的人知道怎样与人合作，以及知道工作并不是一切），可知，表达的同样的意思是﹣﹣高情商是获得精彩生活的必需．51．（12.5分）Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has．There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding．We experience this tiredness in two ways：as start﹣up fatigue（疲惫）and performance fatigue．In the former case，we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult．And the longer we delay it，the more tired we feel．Such start﹣up fatigue is very real，even if not actually physical，not something in our muscles and bones．The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply：always handle the most difficult job first．Years ago，I was asked to write 102essays on the great ideas of some famous authors．Applying my own rule，I determined to write them in alphabetical（按字母顺序），never letting myself leave out a tough idea．And I always started the day's work with the difficult task of essay﹣writing．Experience proved that the rule works．Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle．Though willing to get started，we cannot seem to do the job right．Its difficulties appear so great that，however hard we work，we fail again and again．In such a situation，I work as hard as I can﹣then let the unconscious take over．When planning Encyclopaedia Britannica （《大英百科全书》），I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles．Nothing like this had ever been done before，and day after dat I kept coming up with solutions，but none of them worked．My fatigue became almost unbearable．One day，mentally exhausted，I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved．I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself，not with me．Relived，I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep．An hour later，I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind．In the weeks that followed，the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind provided correct at every step．Though I worked as hard as before，I felt no fatigue．Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing．Human beings，I believe must try to succeed．Success，then，means never feeling tired．51．People with start﹣up fatigue are most likely to．A．delay tasksB．work hardC．seek helpD．accept failure52．What does the author recommend doing to prevent start﹣up fatigue？A．Writing essays in strict order．B．Building up physical strength．C．Leaving out the toughest ideas．D．Dealing with the hardest task first．53．On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue？A．Before starting a difficult task．B．When all the solutions fail．C．If the job is rather boring．D．After finding a way out．54．According to the author，the unconscious mind may help us．A．ignore mental problemsB．get some nice sleepC．gain complete reliefD．find the right solution55．What could be the best title for the passage？A．Success Is Built upon FailureB．How to Handle Performance FatigueC．Getting over Fatigue：A Way to SuccessD．Fatigue：An Early Sign of Health Problems．【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章．文章主要介绍每个人都希望成功，但是人们在实施任务的时候会出现启动疲惫和表现疲惫，这是造成失败的两种原因，文章具体介绍如何克服这两种疲惫：为了防止启动疲惫，作者建议先解决最难的任务；遇到表现疲惫，可以暂时一放，有时无意识的行为可能帮助我们发现正确的解决方法．【解答】51．A 细节理解题．根据第二段的"In the former case，we keep putting off a task，"可知，有启动疲惫的人更可能拖延任务，52．D 细节理解题．根据第三段的"The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply：always handle the most difficult job first．"可知，为了防止启动疲惫，作者建议先解决最难的任务，53．B 细节理解题．根据第五段的"Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle…we fail again and again，"可知，当所有的解决方法都失败的时候，一个人可能会有表现疲惫，．54．D 细节理解题．根据倒数第二段的"the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind provided correct at every step．"可知，无意识的行为可能帮助我们发现正确的解决方法，．55．C 主旨大意题．根据全篇文章和最后一段的内容，可知，文章主要介绍造成失败的两种疲惫，以及如何克服疲惫，．第三部分：写作第一节：阅读表达（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）56．（10分）I'm a

mind．眼不见，心不烦．），out of reach，够不着，拿不到．根据冒号后面的解释﹣﹣many words have been added to the language since it was published，since表示自（一个时间点）以来，可知字典已经过时了，很多词都不在字典里．故选：B．【点评】本题解答时需注意冒号后面的内容，有解释的意思，通过对解释猜测前文的意思，同时要理解介词短语的含义．3．（1分）When walking down the street，I came across David，who I _____ for years．（ ）A．didn't see B．haven't seenC．hadn't seen D．wouldn't see【考点】E9：过去完成时．【分析】当我沿着街道散步的时候，我偶然遇到了多年未见的戴维．【解答】答案：C．根据"I came across David，"可知偶遇戴维是在过去，而"not see"这个动作发生在"come across"之前，是过去的过去发生的动作，用过去完成时．选项A是一般过去时，表示过去某个时间点发生的动作；选项B是现在完成时，表示从过去某个时间点开始的动作，一直持续到现在；选项D是过去将来时，表示从过去的某一时间来看将来要发生的动作或存在的状态；故选：C．【点评】本题考查过去完成时，表示过去的过去发生的动作．做题时，要根据四个选项时态的特点，结合句子动作发生的时间，选择正确的时态．4．（1分）The

）A．wouldn't B．couldn't C．shouldn't D．needn't【考点】A6：情态动词．【分析】真烦人．我无法使用你推荐的数据库．【解答】答案：B wouldn't不会；couldn't不能；shouldn't不应该；needn't不必．根据前面的句子，It was really annoying．真让人心烦．可以知道应该是没法使用数据库，所以用couldn't，故选B．【点评】本题考查的是情态动词的使用．在理解词意的基础上，结合语境选出最符合题意的答案．6．（1分）﹣﹣﹣I'm thinking of going back to school to get another degree．﹣﹣﹣Sounds great!_____．（ ）A．It all depends

引导的从句的动作和主句的动作通常是同时发生变化，有伴随的意味；而while没有这种意味．as引导时间状语从句，表示动作发生的背景和前提条件，且从句中的动作和主句中的动作是同时发生，从句的动词通常为延续性动词．根据本句句意，表示"随着"，应为as．故选：C．【点评】本题需要掌握as引导时间状语时的使用．8．（1分）Mary was silent during the early part of the discussion but finally she ____ her opinion on the subject．（ ）A．gave voice to B．kept an eye onC．turned a deaf ear to D．set foot

D．when【考点】7A：关系副词．【分析】我们将推迟野餐到下周，那时候天气可能会好点儿．【解答】答案D本题考查非限制性定语从句．从句缺少时间状语，即next week．因而关系副词应该用when．故选：D．【点评】考生需了解非限制性定语从句中when的使用，在非限制性定语从句中，主句中先行词为时间，从句中缺少的是时间状语，则要用when引导．10．（1分）The weather forecast

we should have an assistant 与句意不符合．可排除A．故选B．第一个句子结构完整，宾语为a suggestion，后面的内容是作为suggestion的补充说明﹣﹣we should have an assistant（我们需要一个助理）．此处需用that连接，that不作任何成分，只起到连接的作用，同位语前面补充说明的内容可以和that同位语从句的内容划等号，因此这里的suggestion就是we should have an assistant．【点评】本题考查了同位语从句中that的使用．一般情况下同位语从句跟在某些名词（如news，idea，fact，promise，hope，message等）的后面，用以说明该名词所表达的具体内容．在suggestion，advice，request，order等意为"建议；命令；要求"的名词后，同位语从句中的谓语动词通常用"should+动词原形"的虚拟语气结构，句中的should 可以省略．12．（1分）I'm going to _____ advantage of this tour to explore the history of the castle．（ ）A．put B．make C．take D．give【考点】AE：动词的辨析．【分析】我将利用这段旅程来探索这个城堡的历史．【解答】答案C．结合句意可知，这里要表达的是"利用"，跟advantage相关的"利用"的短语为take advantage of sth．因此答案为C．【点评】考生平时需注意常用短语的积累．13．（1分）You are waiting at a wrong place．It is at the hotel ____ the coach picks up tourists．（ ）A．who B．which C．where D．that【考点】GC：强调句．【分析】你等车的地点错了．大客车是在旅店接送游客的．【解答】答案：D．本句如果将句首的It is去掉，则仍然构成了一个完整结构的句子：at the hotel the coach picks up tourists；所以该句为强调句，其结构是：It is/was+强调部分+that+其余部分，如果强调部分是人，也可以用who，这句话强调的是地点状语at the hotel．故选：D．【点评】结合近几年有关高考题的特点，将其变化形式归纳如下：强调句型的一般疑问句形式．一．句式特征：Is/Was it+被强调部分+that…；二、结合特殊疑问词构成特殊疑问句形式．句式特征：特殊疑问词+is/was it that…？三、强调句型的反意疑问句形式．句式特征为：It is/was+被强调部分+that…，isn't/wasn't it？四、强调句型的感叹句形式．句式特征为：what/how …it is（that）+主语+谓语！14．（1分）I hate it when she calls me at work﹣I'm always too busy to _____ a conversation with her．（ ）A．carry on B．break into C．turn down D．cut off【考点】A9：动词短语．【分析】句意：我讨厌她在上班时给我电话﹣﹣我总是太忙了没时间和她进行交谈．【解答】答案A．本题考查动词短语的辨析"carry on"继续，参与，进行"；"break into"强行闯入，成功打入（某行业或领域）；"turn down"声音调小，拒绝"；"cut off"切断，中短．根据句意是，我太忙了，没有时间和她进行交谈．这里"carry on a conversation with"与…进行会话．故选A．【点评】本题考查的是动词短语，要熟悉选项中短语的意思，并结合具体的语境选择出正确选项．15．（1分）I was wearing a seatbelt．If I hadn't been wearing one，I ____．（ ）A．were injuredB．would be injuredC．had been injuredD．would have been injured【考点】F2：现在完成时的被动语态；GJ：虚拟语气．【分析】当时我正系着安全带，如果我没系的话，我就会受伤了．【解答】答案：D该句"I was wearing a seatbelt．"使用了过去进行时，表示过去的事实状况，意为：当时我正系着安全带；if从句中使用了过去完成时，表达了与过去事实相反的情况，即"如果我没系上安全带的话"；通过以上分析可知：本句是虚拟条件句，由于从句使用了过去完成时，那么主句就应该使用would have done的形式，这里injured是形容词；故选D【点评】本题考查了虚拟语气在if条件句中的使用．首先应该正确识别出该句需要使用虚拟语气；其次需要牢固掌握在虚拟条件句中，关于时态的用法及要求；例如本题就考到了当if从句表达的是与过去事实相反的情况时，从句使用过去完成时，主句要用would/should/might/could+have+done的形式．第二节：完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从16-35各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选春最佳选项．16．（30分）The

be somewhat of a clone，not in features but in footsteps．As he grows you also age，and your ambitions become more unachievable．You begin to realize that your boy，in your footsteps，could probably accomplish what you hoped for．But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions．My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten．Science projects waited until the last moment．Book reports weren't written until the final threat．I've been a newspaperman all my adult life．My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English．But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo﹣tech"student（技校学生）．They're called"motorheads"by the rest of the student body．When a secretary in my office first called him"motorhead"，I was shocked．"Hey，he's a good kid，"I wanted to say．"And smart，really．"I learned later that motorheads are，indeed，different．They usually have dirty hands andwear dirty work clothes．And they don't often make school honor rolls（光荣榜）．But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education．We who labor in clean shirts in offices don't have the abilities that motorheads have．I began to learn this whenI had my car crashed．The cost to repair it was estimated at $800．"Hey，I can fix it，"saidJody．I doubted it，but let him go ahead，for I had nothing to lose．My son，with other motorheads，fixed the car．They got parts（零件）from a junkyard，non﹣toasting toaster have been fixed．Neighbours and co﹣workers trust their car repair to him．Since that first repair job，a broken air﹣conditioner，a non﹣functioning washer and a non ﹣toasting toaster have been fixed．Neighbors and co﹣workers trust their car repairs to him．These kids are happiest when doing repairs．They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world．And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes．I have learned a lot from my motorhead：publishers need printers，engineers needmechanics，and architects need builders．Most important，I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else．My son may never make the school honor roll．But he made mine．41．What used to be the author's hope for his son？ D A．To avoid becoming his clone．B．To resemble him in appearance．C．To develop in a different direction．D．To reach the author's unachieved goals．42．What can we learn about the author's children？ A A．His daughter does better in school．B．His daughter has got a master's degree．C．His son tried hard to finish homework．D．His son couldn't write his book reports．43．The author let his son repair the car because he believed that C ．A．His son had the ability to fix it．B．it would save him much time．C．it wouldn't cause him any more lossD．other motorheads would come to help．44．In the author's eyes，motorheads are B ．A．tidy and hardworkingB．cheerful and smartC．lazy but brightD．relaxed but rude45．What did the author realize in the end？ A A．It is unwise to expect your child to follow your path．B．It is important for one to make the honor roll．C．Architects play a more important role than builders．D．Motorheads have greater ability than office workers．【考点】O5：科教类阅读；P2：文中细节；P6：作者情感态度．【分析】本文先讲述了一种社会现象﹣﹣父母希望孩子成为自己的"克隆"，希望孩子能继续"接力"自己年轻时的任务．随后作者通过记叙自己在校表现并不优异的儿子的帮自己修好了车的事例来表达观点﹣﹣出版社需要打字员，工程需要技工，建筑行业需要建造者，每个人都有自己的价值，只要用在合适的地方．作者为自己的儿子感到骄傲，虽然他从未上过学校的光荣榜．【解答】41﹣﹣45DACBA41．D 推理判断题．本题需理解作者一开始对儿子的寄望是什么．由第一段的第一句话可以推断出来Every man wants his son to be somewhat of a clone，not in features but in footsteps．（每个人都希望他的儿子成为自己某方面的克隆，不是外表的克隆，而是在"传承"上的克隆．）可见，作者也是其中之一．因此答案为D．42．A 细节理解题．解答此题的关键词在于the author's children，因此需要在文中找出有关作者孩子的信息．由第三段My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master's degree in English．But Jody？When he entered the tenth grade he became a"vo﹣tech"student（技校学生）．They're called"motorheads"by the rest of the student body．可以找到，作者的女儿是大学生，正准备攻读英语类的研究生．而儿子却被其他学生叫做"motorhead"．可见，女儿的在校表现比儿子要好．因此答案为A．43．C 细节理解题．在第五段可以找到答案．I doubted it，but let him go ahead，for I had nothing to lose．可知，我让儿子修车的原因是﹣﹣我并没有什么损失．因此答案为C．44．B 深层理解题．本题需要判断作者情感态度．由倒数第二段可以找到信息，These kids are happiest when doing repairs．They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world．And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes．可知，答案为B．45．A 深层理解题．本题需猜测作者情感态度．由最后一段可知作者想要表达的全文的中心思想．publishers need printers，engineers need mechanics，and architects need builders．Most important，I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else．My son may never make the school honor roll．But he made mine．作者对社会上的普遍观点是持否定态度的﹣﹣希望自己孩子"继承"自己的志愿是不明智的．因此答案为A．【点评】考生需在文中着重抓住细节信息．在综合细节的基础上进行判断，在文中找到信息．19．（12.5分）When John was growing up，other kids felt sorry for him．His parents always had him weeding the garden，carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers．But whenJohn reached adulthood，he was better off than his childhood playmates．He had more job satisfaction，a better marriage and was healthier．Most of all，he was happier．Far happier．These are the findings of a 40﹣year study that followed the lives of 456teenage boys from Boston．The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not．"Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence （能力）and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society，"said George Vaillant，the psychologist （心理学家）who made the discovery．"And because they felt good about themselves，others felt good about them．"Vaillant's study followed these males in great detail．Interviews were repeated at ages 25，31and 47．Under Vaillant，the researchers compared the men's mental﹣health scores with their boyhood﹣activity scores with their boyhood﹣activity scores．Points were awarded for part﹣time jobs，housework，effort in school，and ability to deal with problems．The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp．Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people，five times as likely to be well paid and 16times less likely to have been unemployed．The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out．Working﹣﹣﹣﹣at any age﹣﹣﹣﹣is important．Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility，independence，confidence and competence﹣﹣﹣the underpinnings （基础）of emotional health．They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals．The most competent adults are those who know how to do this．Yet work isn't everything．As Tolstoy once said，"One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love，to work for the person one loves and to love one's work．"46．What do we know about John？ A A．He enjoyed his career and marriage．B．He had few childhood playmates．C．He received little love from his family．。

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Japanese and American Comic Book HeroesTo some people, the idea of reading comic books seems childish. To others, comics are nothing more than __41__ of their happy childhoods. But for people who love comic books, they can be a(n)__42__ escape from the realities of modern life. Comics are able to __43__ readers to brightly-colored, imaginary worlds where superheroes fight with super-monsters, where good can succeedover bad, and where heroes can save thousands of innocent people from the ―bad guys.‖ Comics are published globally, but Japanese and American versions __44__ the market despite the fact—or perhaps because—they differ in some ways.One difference is the appearance of the heroes. Manga([日语]漫画) heroes look smaller, younger, and more immature than their all-conquering American oneswho have sport muscles and wear themed clothes. Also, manga heroes rarely look Japanese, and the stories are not typically set within a Japanese __45__. Conversely, American comic heroes, despite their masks, are proudly American and are admired for their __46__ to defend U.S. cities. Importantly, in Japan a manga creator can himself or herself become a national hero, becoming almost as famous as the characters.Probably the biggest difference is the __47__. Up until the 1950s, American comic books were read by both children and adults, with popular titles such as Superman selling as many as half a million copies per month. The __48__ of TV, however, led to a long-term decline in sales so that now the average reader of an American comic book is a teenage boy with an interest in superheroes. In Japan, the __49__ couldn’t be greater. There manga sales are still __50__, reaching as high as $7 billion each year largely because readers range from young boys and girls up to middle-aged men and women. A survey by the Mainichi newspaper estimates that 42 percent of women aged 20 to 49 read comics. Manga for men and boys, like the American comics, tend to be action-oriented, while manga for women and girls tend to be focused on relationships.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The best job in the world?Chocolate consultantThis could well be the bestjob for anyone with even the __51__ passion for chocolate—and yes, jobs like these really do exist. There are lots of different types of chocolate consultant. Louise Thomas has worked in the chocolate industry for two years and has been __52__ about chocolate. She became __53__ by the lack of education and awareness regarding fine chocolate, so started her own company to share her love of the cocoa bean. She now runs tastings to find a(n)__54__ chocolate for everycustomer or to extend their range. If you don’t yet have what it takes to be achocolate consultant, you can still work with chocolate as a pastry chef.LEGO __55__Who hasn’t at some point in their life sat down in front of a box of Lego and __56__ building (or helping someone else to build) a fantastic creation in multi-coloured blocks? For some people this becomes more than just something you did as a kid. Lego has a number of __57__ who work with the company to create sets and build models for them. They work against fairly tight budgets and thematic restrictions, and are based in Legoland Discovery Centres around the world. However, competition for the jobs is __58__, with estimates varying as to exactly how many there are in the world—from 9 to 30. The latest one to get a job was 23-year-old Andrew Johnson, and then competed in a tough three-round build-off, __59__ 45 other competitors. If you love childhood toys but don’t fancy building them, why not consider working in a toy shop?Shark tank cleanerWindow cleaning is probably not the most fun of professions. However, add in the requirement to share your job with a lot of sharks while simultaneously(同时地)__60__ by a crowd of people, all of whom are no doubt secretly hoping at least one of the sharks is feeling a little hungry, and suddenly the __61__ levels rise up a level or two. However, if you want to work with fish, perhaps the job would be a good choice.Professional sleeper__62__ you’re addicted to your alarm o’clock or spend all day at your desk yawning and drinking cups of coffee to stay awake, then maybe you should consider turning your comments into a profitable career. Believe it or not, you can actually get paid to wear the pajamas. __63__, these professional sleepers participate in a lot of university studies on sleep or dreams, etc. to decide whetherthe beds are comfortable or not. In 2009 during an art show at The New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York, women were paid to sleep as part of a ―living art‖ exhibition, so you never know __64__ you could be asked to rest your head next. If you enjoy your sleep, you probably want to __65__ jobs that lead to sleep withdrawal.51. A. greatest B. blind C. smallest D. intense52. A. worried B. curious C. scared D. passionate53. A. lost B. frustrated C. enthusiastic D. inferior54. A. particular B. biggest C. sweet D. bitter55. A. examiner B. seller C. competitor D. builder56.

Unless63. A. Rarely B. Contrarily C. Consequently D. Typically64. A. why B. how long C. where D. how often65. A. avoid B. accept C. create D. offerSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choosethe one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)We are all attracted by magicians, who seem to be able to perform impossible acts, such as pulling white rabbits out of hats and cutting a woman in half. Like all performances, though, a magician’s real secret is in practicing thoroughly before showing anyone their tricks.Magic MatchsticksYou will need●several matchsticks● a handkerchief with hems(折缝)along the edgesWhat to do1. Show the audience a matchstick.2. Take a clean cotton handkerchief from your pocket, and shake it out, showing both sides toprove you are not hiding anything.3. Wrap the matchstick in the handkerchief.4. Ask one of the audience members to feel the matchstick inside the handkerchief, and break it.5. Shake the handkerchief, allowing the unbroken matchstick to fall onto the floor!The secretBefore you begin the performance, slip a matchstick into the hemof the handkerchief. When you ask someone to break the wrapped-up matchstick, make sure that they break the one hidden in the hem (when they feel it, they will think it is the one they saw you wrap into the handkerchief).It’s a good idea to have two or three handkerchiefs with matchsticks already secretly in the hems, as your audience is sure to be shocked and ask you to do the trick again. But don’t let them realise that you are changing handkerchiefs, or they may become suspicious!66. If a magician wants to succeed on the stage, he or she must __________.A. practice the magic completelyB. have some magical matchsticksC. recite the process thoroughlyD. keep the secret unknown forever67. Which of the following pictures shows the step 3?A B C D68. One of the secrets of ―Magic matchsticks‖ is to __________.A. make the hidden matchstick broken in the hemB. keep audience from being suspicious during the magicC. invite one of the audience to break the matchstickD. confuse the two different matchsticks in the handkerchief(B)A visit to the village of Kitaisa, UgandaThere are not many visitors to Kitaisa, and not much that would bring them there unless they know someone living there. Most of the villagers live a distance from the main road and where they live are paths that are difficult to travel, especially during the rainy seasons.There are a few shops selling oil, sugar, tea, flour, candles. There is no petrol station, but one will find a school and a small government hospital. But there are no doctors, just a few nurses and medically trained staff.It is still early and most people are outside cooking their meals over firewood. Children in uniform and without shoes are going to school, making their way through muddy paths from the night’s rain.You can see some adults picking beans, or cultivating the ground around corn plants. Some children are carrying water from the nearby river. People are sitting outside having breakfast. Children will have porridge, the family will eat leftover posho, or plantain bananas called matoke. Meat is not often eaten, protein comes mostly from beans.Here life is tough, there is simply a lack of everything. Some chickens are running around and I am told that they are basically for eggs, though one was caught and given to me for later. Life here is very simple. There is no library here, no newspapers. There was a little restaurant with some outside chairs, a beauty shop, and about eight places where food and other supplies were sold.People in villages don’t live long for the most part, since there is no infrastructure here. There are no ambulances, and if you do get sick there is no money to pay for treatment. The nearest hospital is 15 kilometres away in Busunju, but even that larger town lacks facilities, though a medical clinic is there with a doctor, unlike the small facility in Kitaisa which has few things.Other obvious problems are with water and sanitation. Water taken from creeks should be boiled and treated. It is not and because it has to be carried from a distance it is used sparingly. Children become ill with diseases that could be prevented through the use of soap and water.There are no jobs in the village, except cultivating your garden. You can try selling food along the road, but there is no way to make money. You learn to live on little and to make every shilling count. Some support comes from relatives and if you visit someone in the village, you bring those things that they do not have and when you leave you leave them some cash.Village people in Uganda are friendly and hospitable. They are kind and show their graceful ways to outsiders. Kids hover, adults greet you like they have known you forever.69. What is the most likely reason for people to Kitaisa?A. To visit some relatives or friends.B. To enjoy the beautiful scenery.C. To know more about Uganda.D. To help people away from diseases.70. Whichof the following words can NOT be used to describe the life in Kitaisa?A. Hard.B. Peaceful.C.Boring .D. Ideal.71. The word ―infrastructure‖ (paragraph6) is closest in meaning to ―_____‖.A.enough nutritionB. systemic transportationC. basic servicesD. high-quality education72. Thepassage mainly talks about the author’s __________.A. expectation of the under-developing villageB.experience and feelings of the visit to the villageC. suggestions on the development of the villageD. description of the beautiful scenery of the village(C)There was a time when we thoughthumans were special in so many ways. Now we know better. We are not the only species that feels emotions, or follows a moral code. Neither are we the only ones with personalities, cultures and the ability to design and use tools. Yet we all agree that one thing, at least, makes us unique: we alone have the abilityof language.It turns out that we are not so special in this aspect either. Key to the revolutionary reassessment of our talent for communication is the way we think about language itself. Where once it was seen as an unusual object, today scientists find it is more productive to think of language as a group of abilities. Viewed this way, it becomes apparent that the component parts of language are not as unique as the whole.Take gesture, arguably the starting point for language. Until recently, it was considered uniquely human—but not any more. Mike Tomasello of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, and others have collected a list of gestures observed in monkeys and some other animals, which reveals that gestures play a large role in their communication. Ape (猿) gestures can involve touch, vocalising or eye movement, and individuals wait until they have another ape’s attention before making visual or auditory gestures. If their gestures go unacknowledged, they will often repeat them.In an experiment carried out in 2006 by Erica Cartmill and Richard Byrne from the University of St Andrews in the UK, they got a person to sit on a chair with some highly desirable food such as banana to one side of apes and some undesirable food such as vegetablesto the other. The apes, who could see the person and the food from their enclosures, gestured at their human partners to encourage them to push the desirable food their way. If the person showed incomprehension and offered the vegetables, the animals would change their gestures—just as humans would in a similar situation. If the human seemed to understand while being somewhat confused, giving only half the preferred food, the apes would repeat and exaggerate their gestures—again in exactly the same way a human would.Such findings highlight the fact that the gestures of the animals are not merely inborn but are learned, flexible and under voluntary control—all characteristics that are considered preconditions for human-like communication.73. Compared with all the other animals, we agree that humans alone __________.A. own the ability to show their personalitiesB. are capable of using language to communicateC. have moral standards and follow them in societyD. are intelligent enough to release and control emotions74. According to the passage, humans are not so special in language ability because language __________.A. involves some abilitiesthat can bemastered by animalsB. is a talentimpossibly owned by other animalsC. can bedivided into different componentsD. are productive for some talented animals75. Which of the statements can be concludedfrom the passage?A. Some animals can try to use body languages as communication methods.B. Gestures, the starting point for language, are considered uniquely human.C. Some animals such as apes and monkeys share some common gestures codes.D. When gestures are misunderstood, apes will often try to express in a new way.76. What can we learn from the experiment by Cartmill and Byrne?A. Apes can use language to communicate with the help of humans.B. Repeating and exaggerating gestures is vital in language communication.C. Some animals can learn to express and communicate through some trials.D. The preferred food stimulates some animals to use language to communicate.77. What is probably the best title of the passage?A. Language involves gestures!B. Animals language—gestures!C. So you think humans are unique?D. The similarity between humans and apes.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.GoldIndia is the world’s largest market for gold jewellery. In much of Asia, the Middle East and India, around two-thirds of the jewellery purchased is used as a way of saving money as well as being worn as a decorative item. The use of jewellery as a way of saving money is often important in rural areas where finding a bank is difficult or even impossible. People buy gold because its value stays strong even when the value of money goes down.Gold jewellery has often been a woman’s only valuable possession, and in some families this is still true. A woman’s gold can therefore be her only protection against personal misfortune. Today, all around the world, sales of gold jewellery have grown by over 20% per year, because everyone is confident that gold won’t lose its value. Demand for gold is so high that gold mines cannot supply enough.Gold’s function as a decoration, as jewellery, has been evident for thousands of years. Since the earliest times, the beauty and richness of gold, along with the fact that it does not change its colour, has meant that it has always been the favourite metal of jewellers. The earliest gold jewellery dates from the Sumerian civilisation that was at its most powerful around 6,000 years ago. In the Middle Ages, ancient people attempted to make gold from other metals. They used gold in medicines designed to fight old age and prolong life.Gold also performs important functions in many aspects of everyday life. It does not react when it comes into contact with other substances and this, along with other unique properties, makes it useful in medicine and many other areas that we consider essential to our modern lives.During heart surgery, gold-covered ―stent‖ are put into blocked arteries to help the flow of blood. These gadgets need to be carefully positioned. Gold is ideal for this because it shows up clearly on X-rays and can easily be located by doctors. A pacemaker, a device inserted in the body to keep the heartbeat regular, also contains gold. Gold is used in all of these applications becauseof its high level of reliability. Gold also helps doctors to deliver precise doses of powerful drugs to the parts of the body where they are required.Gold has many other applications in modern life as it conducts electricity very efficiently. The standard touch-tone telephone contains 33 contacts made from gold. Air-bag systems fitted in more than 30 million cars around the world rely on gold-coated electrical contacts. And every time you touch a key on your computer it strikes a gold circuit that sends your command to the computer’s microprocessor. In fact, you have probably never realised how much gold there is in your everyday life.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)78. Compared with money, people prefers gold because of __________.79. Gold were used in medicines because ancient people believed it could __________.80. Why can gold be used in pacemaker?81. What makes the application of gold in electronic products possible?第II卷(共47分)I.
