PartⅡ Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)(15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-4, markY(for YES)if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N(for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG(for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.For questions 5to10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.StressThis may come as a surprise, but you need stress in your life. Leading stress management experts say that life without stress would be dull and unexciting. Stress adds flavor, challenge, and opportunity to life. However, too much stress can seriously affect your physical and mental well-being. A major challenge in today’s stress-filled world is to make the stress in your life work for you instead of against you.In today’s hectic, fast-paced world and with the booming economy, stress is our constant companion. It comes from mental or emotional activity and physical activity. Too much emotional stress can result in physical illness, such as high blood pressure, ulcers, asthma, irritable colon, headaches, or even heart disease. On the other hand, physical stress from work or exercise rarely causes such ailments. In fact, physical exercise can help you to relax and to handle your mental or emotional stress.Hans Selye, M.D., a recognized expert in the field, has defined stress as a “nonspecific response of the body to a demand”. The key to reducing stress is learning how our bodies respond to those demands. When stress becomes prolonged or particularly frustrating, it can become harmful—causing distress or “bad stress”. Recognizing the early signs of distress and then doing something about them can make a significant difference in the quality of your life.In order to use stress in a positive way and prevent it from becoming distress, you should be aware of your own reactions to stressful events. The body responds to stress by going through specific stages: (1) alarm, (2) resistance, and (3) exhaustion. Muscles tense, blood pressure and heart rate rise, and adrenaline and other stress-triggered hormones that increase the level of alertness are released. If the stress-causing conditions continue, your body will need time to make repairs, if that happens, you eventually may develop a physical problem that is related to stress, such as migraine headaches, high blood pressure, backaches, or insomnia. That’s why when stress occurs it’s important that you recognize and deal with it in a positive way. While it’s impossible to live completely free of stress and distress, it is possible to prevent some distress as well as to minimize its impact when it can’t be avoided. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to handle stress.Try Physical ActivityWhen you’re nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity. Running, walking, playing tennis, or working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try. Physical exercise will relieve your anxiety and worry and help you relax. Your body and your mind will work together to ease the stress in your life.Share Your StressIt helps to talk with someone about your anxieties and worries. Perhaps a friend, family member, teacher, or counselor can help you achieve a more positive perspec tive on what’s troubling you. If you feel your problem is serious, you might seek professional help from a psychologist, psychiatrist or socialworker. Knowing when to ask for help is a positive step in avoiding more serious problems later.Take Care of YourselfYou should make every effort to eat well and to get enough rest. If you’re irritable and tense from lack of sleep, or if you’re not eating properly, you’ll be more vulnerable to stressful situations. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult your doctor.Make Time for YourselfSchedule time for both work and recreation. Don’t forget, play can be just as important to your overall well-being as work. You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun. Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.Make a List of the Things You Need to DoStress can result from disorganization and a feeling that “there’s so much to do, and not enough time”. Trying to t ake care of everything at once can be overwhelming, and as a result, you may not accomplish anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is completed. Give priority to the most important tasks and do those first.Go Ahead and CryA good cry can be a healthy way to bring relief to your anxiety. It might even help yon avoid a headache or other physical consequence of anxiety and stress.Create a Quiet SceneYon can’t always run away, bu t you can allow yourself a mental “get-away”. A quiet country scene painted mentally, or on canvas, can transport you from the tension of a stressfulsituation to a more relaxing frame of mind. You also can create a sense of peace and tranquility by reading a good book or listening to beautiful music.Avoid Self-MedicationWhile yon can use prescription or over-the-counter medications to relieve stress temporarily, they do not remove the conditions that caused the stress in the first place. In fact, many medications may be habit-forming and also may reduce your efficiency, thus creating more stress than they eliminate. They should be taken only on the advice of your doctor.RelaxThe best strategy for reducing or avoiding stress altogether is to learn how to relax. Unfortunately, many people try to relax at the same pace that they lead the rest of their lives. That doesn’t work. Instead, try tuning out your worries about time, productivity and “doing right”. Here are several relaxation techniques you may find helpful:—You should take a deep breath and exhale to help calm your mind, counter your body’s natural stress reaction and improve your response.—You should laugh. Many stress management experts advocate laughter as a relaxation technique for relieving tension.—You should take a warm bath or shower. Whether you prefer bubble baths or long hot showers, this is an excellent way to relax after a stressful day.—You should try progressive muscle relaxation. Individual contract and relax each muscle group of your body. Begin by tensing your toes for 10 seconds, then relax them for 20. Work all the way up your body, alternately tensing and relaxing, and finish with your facial muscles.By learning the “art” of relaxation, you’ll find satisfaction in just “being”, without trying or striving. Your focus on relaxation, enjoyment and health will reduce stress, anxiety and worry in your life. The result is, you will be calmer, healthier and happier.注意:此部分试题在答题卡1上作答。

There are not many places where it is impossible to do this. A music shop is very much --76. like a bookshop. You can wander round such placesto your heart's content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach to you with the inevitable --77. greeting: "Can I help you, Sir?" You needn't buy anything if you don't want. In a bookshop anassistant should remain the background until you --78. have finished browsing. Then, only then, are hisservices necessary. Of course, you may want tofind out where a particular section is, since when he --79. has led you there, the assistant should retirediscreetly and look as he is not interested in --80.selling a single book.答案:71. if -- whether72.

Everyonetalks about a good game, but the winner goes outand do something. To win, there has to be movement --73.and physical action. Attitudes and persistence canhelp us become who we want to be. --74.Competition is the best motivator. Because --75.many people use competition as an excuse for notdoing something, those who really want to success --76.see competition as an opportunity, and they'rewilling to do the tough work necessarily to win. --77.Learn to deal with fear. Fear is the greatestdeterrent to taking risk.

More and more people live in towns and citiesinstead on farms and in villages. Cities and states have to provide --71.services city people want, such like more police protection, more --72.hospitals, and more schools. This means that more policemen,more nurses and technicians, and more teachers must be hired.Advances in technology has also changed people's lives. --73.Dishwashers and washing machines do jobs that were once doneby the hand. The widespread use of such electrical appliances --74.means that there is a need for servicemen to keep it running --75.properly.People are earning higher wages and salaries. This leads --76.changes in the way of life. As income goes down, people may not --77. want more food to eat or more clothes to wear. But they maywant more and better care from doctors, dentists and hospitals.They are likely to travel more and to want more education Nevertheless, many more jobs are available in these services. --78.The government also affects the kind of works people do. --79.The governments of most countries spend huge sums of moneyfor international defense.

In the eighteenth century farmerswere quite self-sufficient. The farm family grew and made almostnothing it needed. The surplus crop would be sold to buy a new --71.items in the local general store.In 1860, because some of the farm population had moved to --72.the city, yet eighty percent of the American population was still inthe country. In the late nineteen century, farm work and life --73.were not much changed from that they had been in old days. The --74.farmer aroused at dawn or before and had much work to do, with --75.his own muscles like his chief source of power. He used axes, --76.spades and other complicated tools. In his house cooking was done --77.in wood-burning stoves, and the kerosene lamp was the onlyimprovement on the candle. The family's recreation and social life chiefly consisted a drive in the wagon to the nearby small town or --78. village to transact some business as well as to chat with neighborswho had also come to town.The children attended a small elementary school (often ofjust one room) to that they had to walk every day, possibly for a --79. few miles. The school term was short so that the children couldnot help on the farm. Although the whole family worked, and life --80. was not easy, farmers as a class were self-reliant and independent.答案:71. nothing --- everything72. because --- although73. nineteen --- nineteenth74. that --- what75. aroused --- rose/got up76. like --- as77. complicated --- simple78. consisted后加of79. that --- which80. and --- /第六篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)Living is risky. Crossing the road, driving a car,flying, swallowing an aspirin table or eating a chickensandwich-they can all be fatal.Clearly some risks worth taking, especially when the --61.rewards high: a man surrounded by flames and smokegenerally considers that jumping out of a second-floorwindow is an acceptable risk to save its life. But in --62.medicine a few procedures, drugs, operations or tests --63.are really a mater of life and death. There may besound medicine reasons are totally dependent --64.in the balance of risks and benefits for the --65.patients.Surgery for cancer may cure or prolong a life, butthe removal of tonsils(扁桃体) cannot save anything a --66. sore throat. Blood pressure drugs definitely help somepeople live after a heart attack, but these same drugsmay be both necessary and harmful for those with only --67. mild blood pressure problems.Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are preparing --68. to put up with in the name of better health is a high --69. personal matter, not a decision we should remain to --70. doctors alone.答案:61. risks ∧worth → are62. its → h is63. a few → few64. medicine → medical65. in → on 或upon66. anything ∧ a → but 或except67. necessary → unnecessary68. preparing → prepared 或ready 或willing69. high → highly70. remain → leave第七篇:Error Correction (15 minutes)A good way to get information for essays andreports is to interview people who are experts in --71.your topic or whose opinions may be interesti ng.Interviews are also a good way to get a sampling of people's opinions on various questions. Here ar esome suggestions that will help you make most of a --72. planned interview:1. If the person to be interviewed (the interviewee) is busy, cancel an appointment in --73. advance.2. Prepare your questions before the interview sothat you make best use of your time. In preparingthink about the topic about what the interviewer is --74.likely to know.3. Use your questions, but don't insist in sticking to --75.them or proceeding in the order you have listed.Often the interviewee will have importantinformation that was never occurred to you, or one --76. question may suggest another very useful one.4. If you don't understand something theinterviewee has said, say politely and ask him or --77. her to clarify it or to give an example.5. Take notes, if the interviewee goes too slowly --78. for you, ask him or her to stop for a moment, especially if the point is important. A taperecorder lets you avoid this problem. Therefore, --79.be sure the interviewee agrees to be taped.6. As soon as possible after the interview, readover your notes.

Such a place, however, is very good to be true: --72. such a place is nowhere, and that's what the word "Utopia" means. It is made up two Greek words meaning "not a place". --73. The word was first used by Thomas More, a sixteen century --74. English writer whose book Utopia, published in 1516,describing a perfect island country. More's idea for tale came --75. from Plato. Plato's The Republic described what would be aperfect state. Early legends told a perfect place existing --76. somewhere in Atlantic. These legends were no longer believed --77. when the explorations of Americans began, but after More'stime they became common for writers to imagine there places. --78.

Every normal person isexpert in the skill of pronouncing his own language, and --71--few people are even moderately proficient at pronouncingforeign languages. Now there are many reasons about this, --72-- some obvious, some perhaps not so obvious. But I suggestthat the fundamental reason why people in general do notspeak foreign languages very better than they do is that --73--they fail to grasp the true name of the problem of learningto pronounce, and consequently never set about tacklingit by the right way. Far too many people fail to realize --74--that pronounce a foreign language is a skill, one that --75--needs careful training of a special kind, and one thatcannot be acquired by just leaving it to take care of himself. --76--I think even teachers of language, while recognizing theimportance of a good accent, tend to neglect, in their practical teaching, the branch of study concerning with speaking the --77-- language. So the first point I want to make is that English pronunciation must be taught; the teacher may be prepared to --78-- devote some of the lesson time to this, and by his wholeattitude to the subject he should get the student to feelthat here is a matter worth of receiving his close attention. --79--So, there should be occasions where other aspects of English, --80--such as grammar or spelling, are allowed for the moment totake a secondary place.答案:71.and→but。

For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the fourchoices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with theinformation given in the passage.There's a price to be paid for our cheap foodThe big food companies should be taxed for the damage they cause to our bodies and the planet The world is throwing away a shocking amount of food. A report last week claimed that at least a third of the 4 billion tonnes of food the world produces each year never gets as far as our mouths. Between 30% and 50% of food purchased in Europe and the US is thrown away. The research is questioned, not least by the supermarkets, but it does echo the results of an exercise in Britain six years ago, when researchers for the government-funded Waste and Resources Action Programme (Wrap) went through the nation's rubbish bins. It concluded that we were throwing away 30% of the food we'd bought while it was still edible (可食用的).Britain – and much of the rich world – has got used to filling the fridge with what looks nice, not what it actually needs. The cost of that indulgence (放纵) is, says the Institute of Mechanical Engineers, £10bn annually. Globally, the cost, in money, energy and ever-scarcer water, is unquantifiable.Our future food security has been climbing the top 10 of current global worries. The prospect of feeding a mid-century planet of around 9 billion people looks impossible without major and potentially unattractive changes to farming and our diet. If you accept the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organisation's call for production to be increased by 70% to feed the population of 2050, most of the work will be achieved just by being a bit more thrifty (节俭的). All we have to do is to use better what is already there.However, throwing food out is easy. Using it sensibly, especially the less attractive bits, is not. The urge to bin and buy again, encouraged by multimillion pound advertising campaigns, is all the less resistible now because, despite recent price rises, for most of us, food is cheap. At Christmas, the average family spent just over £100 on the big meal, a quarter of what it spent on presents. Stopping the waste will take more than a few celebrity chefs telling us how to use the roast chicken leftovers or asking the supermarkets to relax a bit with buy one, get one free offers.Education of consumers and voluntary agreements with the retail industry have all been tried: Wrap is 13 years old this year and has not impressed. Its critics say that its expensive information campaigns under slogans such as "Love Food Hate Waste" lack targets and convincingly audited (审计) results. Like so many toothless quangos(半官方机构), it can only cajole (利诱) business rather than bring it firmly to heel. More households may be portion-planning and recycling now,because of Wrap's adverts, but the slight reduction in the tonnage of food estimated to have been thrown away in British households (from 8.3m in 2006/07 to 7.2m in 2010) is probably accounted for by the price rises and stall in incomes that followed the global economic crash of 2008.Here we come to the uncomfortable core of the problem. Price is the key factor in our behaviour with food and food may, simply, be too cheap. Certainly, in Britain it is cheaper than at any time in history: we spend less than 10% of household income on food and drink. In 1950, we spent around 25%. In the developing world, 50% or more of income is spent on food. Tellingly, Britain spends less than any other country in Europe. Worldwide, it seems that the lower a country's food/income ratio, the higher its incidence of obesity(肥胖). Presumably, the higher also the proportion of food it chucks out.Observers of food policy certainly believe that cheap food is a problem or, as Professor Tim Lang of City University tells it, that too much of the true cost of food is born not by the consumer or the retailer. The environmental and health damage caused by modern food production and its transport, as well as by excessive consumption, entails vast costs, often picked up by people far away from Tesco's catchments. But it is the supermarkets' eternal price wars –their one-track marketing philosophy where "value" trumps all other qualities in food – that have driven prices so low. Without restoring a sense of the real value of food, how will we stop all but the hungry wasting it?Food inflation is a key political indicator, yet no government is going to risk price rises for all the good it might do for our health or our environment, let alone the chance of stopping the landfill. Supermarkets, with their powerful lobbying arms and political donations, habitually wriggle away from legislation and Competition Commission criticism merely with the threat that any new regulation will raise prices. That has to stop. A far tougher position is required.The government's promise to abolish the use of "sell by" and "display until" labels has been parlayed into voluntary Food Standards Agency "advice". Because of industry resistance, Wrap has never fully measured waste caused upstream from the household, even though the retailers and manufacturers are certainly to blame for more of the tonnage that goes to landfill. It may always be easier to blame the consumer but what is required is far stricter regulation of the food giants.So how could we regulate? Producers complain that the major supermarket chains enslave them in very harsh contracts that set up a damaging chain reaction. Producers then pay low wages, which are in turn subsidised by taxpayers via tax credits. These boost incomes that are still so low that families are forced to buy inferior food. (Supermarket chains –hugely profitable –also pay risibly low wages to workers.) Ending this vicious cycle is not simply about food pricing, it's a far larger debate. Even in austerity, the profits of the "big food" companies continue to rise. This isabout more than pricing – it's about a sense of responsibility about what's fair.An alternative to voluntary change is to tax the food industry in just proportion to the damage it causes. Another idea gaining ground across Europe is for a sugar tax – the cheap processed foods and soft drinks that carry the largest profit margins (and which are a key cause of obesity) depend hugely on sugar for their appeal. Food price rises would result and the supermarkets' vast profits might have to take a hit. Those who would really suffer are the poor and their children and that is a challenge to be met fairly with a living wage, not by caps on benefits or food banks.There are lots of ideas around for the "zero-waste economy" that successive governments have repeatedly promised. But first and foremost, politicians have to conquer their fear of "big food".1. What did a research reveal last week?A) Nearly half of the food purchased is not edible.B) More than a third of the food is thrown away.C) There is a disguised increase in the food price.D) British households waste most food in the world.2.

Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewestpossible words. Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2.Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.When students arrive on campus with their parents, both parties often assume that the school will function in loco parentis (代替父母), watching over its young charges, providing assistance when needed. Colleges and universities present themselves as supportive learning communities —as extended families, in a way. And indeed, for many students they become a home away from home. This is why graduates often use another Latin term, alma mater, meaning "nourishing mother." Ideally, the school nurtures its students, guiding them toward adulthood. Lifelong friendships are formed, teachers become mentors, and the academic experience is complemented by rich social interaction. For some students, however, the picture is less rosy. For a significant number, the challenges can become overwhelming.In reality, administrators at American colleges and universities are often obliged to focus as much on the generation of revenue as on the new generation of students. Public institutions in particular are often faced with tough choices about which student support services to fund, and how to manage such things as soaring health-care costs for faculty and staff. Private schools are feeling the pinch as well. Ironically, although tuition and fees can increase as much as 6.6 percent in a single year, the high cost of doing business at public and private institutions means that students are not necessarily receiving more support in return for increased tuition and fees. To compound the problem, students may bereluctant to seek help even when they desperately need it.Just as colleges are sometimes ill equipped to respond to the challenges being posed by today's students, so students themselves are sometimes ill equipped to respond to the challenges posed by college life. Although they arrive on campus with high expectations, some students struggle with chronic shyness or perfectionism, learning disabilities, addiction, or eating disorders. Still others may have an unreliable moral compass, and some go wild when they realize that the only real prohibition against things like alcohol, drugs, and sex is their own willpower. Most experience failed relationships; some suffer from acute loneliness, mental illness, or even rage.Unfortunately, higher education is sometimes more of an information delivery system than a responsive, collaborative process. We have created cities of youth in which students can pass through unnoticed, their voices rarely heard, their faces rarely seen. As class size grows in response to budget cuts, it becomes even less likely that troubled students, or even severely disturbed students, will be noticed. When they're not, the results can be tragic.47. Schools are expected to protect the students and _____________________ when their students need help.48. Both public and private schools have to focus on _____________________ besides looking aftertheir students.49. Students’ _____________________ to seek help may exaggerate sch ools’ inability to help them.50. S ome of today’s students are sometimes _____________________ in face of overwhelmingchallenges in college.51. Higher education should be responsive and _____________________ to avoid students beingrarely heard and seen during their college life.Section BDirections:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.Higher education institutions are predictably cool to President Obama’s proposal to shift fe deral aid away from colleges that fail to control rising tuition. Even though the details of his plan, which would require Congressional approval, will not be fleshed out until later this month, the idea behind it is sound.The federal government must do more to rein in tuition costs at the public colleges that educate more than 70 percent of the nation’s students. By one estimate, the cost of four-year public college tuition has tripled since the 1980s, outpacing both inflation and family income. The increase in the tuition burden is largely caused by declining state support for higher education in the past three decades. In both good times and bad, state governments have pushed more of the costs onto students, forcing many to take out big loans or be priced out of once affordable public colleges at a time when a college education is critical in the new economy.While financial aid is available to some low-income students, many are driven away by tuition sticker shock. At the same time, many colleges have failed to find more cost-effective ways to deliver education and get the average student to graduation in four years. President Obama was on the mark when he said that this needs to change.An analysis by State Higher Education Executive Officers, a nonprofit group, shows clearly what has happened in public higher education since 1985. In Michigan, for example, the net tuition paid per student after financial aid rose from about $3,900 in 1985 to nearly $9,000 in 2010, in inflation adjusted dollars. In response, students have turned to loans. In the last decade, federal college loan debt has more than doubled from $41 million to $103 million, according to the College Board.President Obama’s proposed reform plan would require colleges that receive federal aid to create ―a scoreboard‖ that gives actual costs, graduation rates and potential earnings for graduates. His idea for establishing a $1 billion fund to provide grants to states that improve graduation rates and reduce costs is a good one. He also calls for expanding campus-based aid — mainly loans and work-study programs —to more than $10 billion from the current $2.7 billion. And, for the first time, the government would punish colleges that failed to control tuition or that did not provide good value by shifting money to other schools that do a better job.Determining what amounts to good value will be difficult, and persuading Congress to move forward on any of these ideas will be hard. But Mr. Obama is right that the federal government should begin leveraging (利用) its sizable investment in higher education for reform.52. Obama’s proposal about federal aid intends to ______.A) impel colleges to attach importance to their finance managementB) withdraw federal aid from collegesC) urge colleges to bring down the tuition costsD) reduce the number of colleges53. What mainly led to the rising of students’ tuition burden in the past three decades?A) The lack of state support.B) The higher inflation.C) The shrinking of family income.D) The weakening of loan support.54. The analysis by State Higher Education Executive Officers further shows that ______.A) financial aid doesn’t efficiently help poor students receive higher educationB) the development of higher education lags behind the growth of economyC) the tuition has been going up faster than inflationD) higher education institutions are turning into profit-making organizations55. The initiative of Obama’s reform plan is reflected in ______.A) increasing the funding in educationB) creating campus-based aidC) making the use of federal aid transparentD) linking federal aid to the value provided by colleges56. What’s the author’s attitude towards Obama’s reform plan?A) Positive. B) Negative. C) Skeptical. D) Indifferent.Passage TwoQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.Compared with elderly parents and adult children in five other industrialized nations, Americans are twice as likely to have ―disharmonious‖ relationships, a new multinational study has found. And we’re correspondingly less likely to have ―friendly‖ relationships marked by strong affection and relatively free of conflict. The study of nearly 2,700 parents over age 65, published recently in The Journal of Marriage and Family, turned up significant national differences. German and Spanish parents described relationships with their adult children as more detached. The English reported the most friendly families. Israelis operated with a high degree of ambivalence (正反感情并存), meaning they indicated strong positive and negative emotions. Norwegians placed somewhere in the middle.。

It's true that campus activities have been organized in many universities and colleges. These activities range from academic to recreational, such as academic reports, speech contests, poet's club, painting clubs, singing and dancing groups, etc.These activities provide students with two major advantages. First of all, they play a positive role in improving students' studies. Due to their heavy schedules, students are often buried in textbooks and seldom expose themselves to a colorful life. But the various activities provide opportunities for them to relax themselves and enrich their minds. In addition, the activities also serve students living in the "ivory tower" more chances to get in touch with society. From these activities, the participants have to leave the classroom and get to know the society.All these offer an important means for students to broaden their horizons.

易混淆词的使用错误英语词汇中有很多词在拼写上、语义上很相似,如assure/ensure ,rise/arise/raise ,effect/affect ,但是它们的用法却迥然不同。

这些易混淆的词构成六级改错的一个重要错误类型,也是比较难的一种类型,这个需要考生在平时的学习过程中注意知识的积累,并多做些总结和归纳,从中找出一些规律。

本句很明显是“ leave…to… ”的句型,所以应该把remain 改为leave .例3Of course the press means more than newspaper. A vastamount of magazines are published, aimed at readers1.__________interested in all sorts of subjects.因为amount 表示数量时只与不可数名词连用,而本句中后面所接名词为“ magazines ”,是复数名词,应该使用表示复数形式的number ,故应该把amount 改为number .例4Today, flint has small importance as an industrial product.1.__________“small”用于表示人或物的体积尺寸,不能修饰抽象名词importance ,因此应把small 改为可以修饰不可数抽象名词的little .练习题1 Industry officials predicted that mobile communicationsservice will soon be comparative in many respects to the 1.__________ service provided by telephone that do not move.2 In today's society, “Smoking effects your health” has 2.__________become a warning which is known to almost every house hold.3 For his outstanding achievements in graduate teachinghe is held in big esteem by his students and colleagues. 3.__________4 Supersonic craft may disturb the upper atmosphere tosuch an extent that dangerous radiation from the sun mightreach the earth, with unimaginative effects on life there. 4.__________5 In the late nineteen century, farm work and life were not 5.__________much changed from what they had been in the old days.6 Deciding how much discomfort and risk we are preparedto put up with in the name o better health is a high personal 6.__________ matter, not a decision we should remain to doctors alone. 7.__________7 Whenever the subject of smoking and health is risen, 8.__________the governments of most countries hears no evil, see no eviland smell no evil.8 If I were to live my life over again, I would pay moreattention to the cultivation of the memory. I would strengthenthat faculty by every possible mean, and on every possible 9.__________ occasion.9 The government of most countries spending huge sum ofmoney for international defense. 10.__________答案解析:1. comparative→comparable.当仅仅表达“比较的,比较性的”意思,而没有涉及到具体的比较时,应该用第一个词,但是当设计到具体的两者之间的比较时,则应该使用comparable.此句属于第二种情况。

the elite Russell Group are among those facing 28 , with Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle and Southampton being particularly 29 .Data from the Government's Higher Education Funding Council for England suggests some newer universities such as Bedfordshire and East London are expecting to lose around one-in-eight places.The cuts are being 30 following the introduction of new rules that effectively 31 universities charging more than 7,500 in student fees from this autumn.It means large numbers of places are being 32 towards cheap further education colleges.Ministers are also lifting controls on the number of bright students gaining at least two A grades and a B at Alevel that universities can recruit 33 an inevitable scramble towards a small number of top institutions.The funding council's chief executive denied the loss of student places would tip any institution into significant financial trouble.But Prof Michael Farthing, vice-chancellor of Sussex University and chairman of

洛基英语,免费体验全部在线一对一课程:/ielts/xd.html(报名网址)Almost every new innovation goes through three phases.
When initially introducing into the market, the process 1.
of adoption is slow. The early models are expensive and
hard to use, and perhaps even unsafe. The economic
impact is relatively great. 2.
The second phase is the explosive one, where the innovation
was rapidly adopted by a large number of people. It gets 3.
cheaper and easier to use and becomes something familiar.
And then in the third stage, diffusion of the innovation
slows down again, as if it permeates out across the economy. 4.
During the explosive phase, whole new industries spring
up to produce the new product or innovation, and to service
it. For example, during the 1920s, there was dramatic 5.
acceleration in auto production, from 1.9 million in 1920
to 4.5 million in 1929. This boom was accompanied with all 6.
sorts of other essential activities necessary for an
auto-based nation: Roads had to been built for the cars to 7.
run on; refineries and oil wells, to provide the gasoline;
and garages, to repair it. 8.
Historically, the same pattern is repeated again and again
with innovations. The construction of the electrical system
requested an enormous early investment in generation and 9.
distribution capacity. The introduction of the radio was
followed by a buying spree (无节制的狂热行为) by Americans
what quickly brought radios into almost half of all households 10.
by 1930, up from nearly none in 1924.
