C. what
D. which
【答案为D】解析：此题考查定语从句。

A. To found
B. Founding
C. Founded
D. Having founded
【答案为C】解析：此题考查非谓语动词。

根据题干，此题需选择非谓语动词，那么它要默认非谓语动词的逻辑主语为主句主语，在本句中，也就是“the school”，再看the school 和found的关系为被动，而在所有的选项中，只有C表示被动的词意，其它均没有。

33. It’s said that the power plant is now large as what it was.
A. twice as
B. as twice
C. twice much

B. couldn’t
C. should
D. needn’t
【答案为B】解析：此题考查情态动词。

首先本句用到了强调句型“it + 情态动词+be +被强调部分+that……”，既然后一句已经说明“你知道许多单词”，那么，就不可能是“在练习中词汇引起这个问题”。

所以选择B。

35,----How did your interview with the manager go?
---- He seemed interested in my experience, but he didn’t ask for references.
A. Perfect!
B. I’m not sure.

”今年的阅读理解内容分别是有关健康的、如何保护水资源的、介绍一个慈善机构、介绍探戈舞等，“表达了一种时代感，让学生在做卷子的过程中有一种跨文化交流的意识。

”特别注意的是，阅读理解里有两道题很具有亮点，一个是对文章出处和结构的判断，另一个是对作者意图和态度的推断，这两个问题对学生的要求较高，“必须要读懂和理解文章内容才可以。

”

“People are ruder today because they are rushed and more ‘time poor’than ever before,”says Patsy Rowe, “Manners have fallen off the radar(雷达).”Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people don’t wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint〔抱怨〕about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness.
Some people prefer to do almost everything over the internet. To them, dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary step backward. It feels very slow because humans don’t work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life-changing news, so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous〔匿名的〕rude messages by email.
However, rudeness is never acceptable, Don’t assume it is OK to be rude if the person you’re in touch with won’t recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.
We shouldn’t blame technology for our shortcomings. Technology is here to help us, but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more help if we′d publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.
68.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph I?
A. People can tell good from bad behavior.
B. Radar is able to observe human behavior.
C. People care little about their behavior.
D. Radar can be used to predict human behavior.
69.Some people are less willing to deal with humans because
A. they are becoming less patient
B. they are growing too independent
C. they have to handle many important messages
D. they have to follow an evolutionary step backward.
70.The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages is
A. Ridiculous
B. disgusting
C. acceptable
D. reasonable
71.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. We should applaud good behavior.
B. Technology can never be blamed
C. We should keep pointing out mistakes.
D. Technology will take over lives one day.
D篇是一篇有关现代文明礼仪的文章。

第一段的第一句话其实就是文章主题句。

Aristotle once wrote that “happiness is a state of activity”. In other words, whether you’re seeking life-long satisfaction or a few moments of good cheer, you’ve got to move forward. We’ve interviewed the experts and found five steps to take toward a sunny mood〔心情〕：
Over a 30-year period, University of Illinois researchers asked nearly 120,000 people how income, education, political participation, volunteer activities and close relationships affected their happiness. Reported Newsweek’s Sharon Begley on the findings, “The highest levels of happiness are found with the most stable and satisfying relationships.”
Singing aloud, talking to a stranger, raising your hand: all may increase a feeling of happiness, according to a study from Wake Forest University. Participants〔参与者〕followed the development of their moods for two weeks and reported feeling happier when they were more outgoing and less happy when reserved or withdrawn.
The editors of Forbes. Com gave $5 or $20 to 46 strangers by chance. Half the group was told to spend the money on themselves, while the other half was told to
spend it on others. Those who’d shared the wealth felt much happier at the end of the day than those who’d spent it on themselves. There was no difference in happiness between those who spent $5 or $20, suggesting that it’s not how much money you spend, but how you spend it, that inspires the spirit.
Studies from the Positive Psychology Center showed that discouraged people who wrote down three good things that happened to them each day for six months reported an improved attitude.
Drinking water really can help keep you cheerful. A small 2012 study from the University of Connecticut suggested that even slight dehydration〔脱水〕affected the moods of its female participants.
