A study found a(an) __36___ result in young children: the more stories read to them, the __37__ their ―theory of mind,‖ or mental model of other people‘s intentions.―Deep reading‖ —as __38__ to the superficial reading we do on the Web — is an __39__ practice, one we should take steps to __40__ as we would a historic building or a significant work of art. Its __41__ would put in danger the intellectual and emotional development of generations growing up online, as well as literature that can be __42__ only by readers whose brains, quite __43__ , have been trained to understand them.Recent research has demonstrated that deep reading is a __44__ experience, different from the mere decoding of words. __45__ deep reading does not, strictly speaking, require a __46__ book, the built-in limits of the printed page are uniquely conducive(有助于) to the deep reading experience. A book‘s lack of hyperlinks, for example, __47__ the reader from making decisions —Should I click on this link or not — __48__ her to remain fully immersed in the narrative.The deep reading of books and the information-driven reading we do on the Web are different, both __49__ the experience they produce and the __50__ they develop. A growing body of evidence suggests that online r eading may be less __51__ and less satisfying, even for the ―digital natives‖ for whom it is so familiar.When readers are enjoying the experience the most, the __52__ of their reading actually slows. The __53__ of fast, fluent decoding of words and slow, unhurried progress on the page gives deep readers time to enrich their reading with __54__, analysis, and opinions. It gives them time to establish an close relationship with the author, the two of them engaged in an extended __55__ like people falling in love.36. A. different B. unbelievable C. efficient D. similar37. A. quicker B. stronger C. keener D. higher38. A. contradicted B. equal C. opposed D. relevant39.

Someof the choices seem odd to me —but that‘s part of the fun, as youwonder why. The notes make the book really useful. Every home shouldhave a copy.POEMS THAT MAKE GROWN MEN CRYEdited by Anthony and Ben Holden (Simon & Schuster £16.99)This is a fascinating, wide-ranging selection of poems chosen by 100well-known men — simply because they find them deeply moving. Butgrown men aren‘t supposed to cry, are they?Some of the poems are about loss, as you‘d expect, but others are aboutdeeply held political passions or intense observations of nature. Each isintroduced by the chooser, usually with frank personal detail.BLACK COUNTRY by Liz Berry (Chatto £10)This is a writer I‘m thrilled to discover — someone who takes a pride inthe Midlands, where she lives. Berry uses some of the dialect words sheheard as a child, turning ordinariness into something direct, tender andbeautiful.The disagreeable Brummie accent becomes music in the hands of this fineyoung poet.LEARNING TO MAKE AN OUD IN NAZARETH by Ruth Padel(Chatto £10)Padel is one of our most talented writers. Poet, naturalist, musician andtravel writer, she turns her multi-layered poetic attention to the MiddleEast, seeking peace and harmony through sensitive and moving poemsthat offer hope even as they reflect upon struggle.Her prolific and passionate creativity is proof that ‗making is our defenceagainst the dark‘.56. Of the four books mentioned above, who are the creators of the poems?A. Andrew Motion and Liz BerryB. Liz Berry and Ruth PadelC. Anthony and Ben HoldenD. Ruth Padel and Ben Holden57. Which of the following statements is true?A. Students aged 14 to 18 can choose a poem from Black Country to take part in a competition.B. Liz Berry can change the unpleasant Brummie accent into a beautiful song.C. Men will cry after they read the poems written by 100 distinguished persons.D. You will read personal perspectives in Poems That Make Grown Men Cry.58. Which of the four books may probably give the people living in psychological suffering comfort and relief?A. Poems that Make Grown Men CryB. Poetry by HeartC. Black CountryD. Learning to Make an Oud in NazarethBEvery fall, like clockwork, Linda Krentz of Beaverton, Oregon, felt her brain go on strike. "I just couldn't get going in the morning," she says. "I'd get depressed and gain 10 pounds every winter and lose them again in the spring." Then she read about seasonal affective disorder, a form of depression that occurs in fall and winter, and she saw the light literally. Every morning now she turns on a specially constructed light box for half an hour and sits in front of it to trick her brain into thinking it's still enjoying those long summer days. It seems to work.Krentz is not alone. Scientists estimate that 10 million Americans suffer from seasonal depression and 25 million more develop milder versions. But there's never been definitive proof that treatment with very bright lights makes a difference. After all, it's hard to do a double-blind test when the subjects can see for themselves whether or not the light is on. That's why nobody has ever separated the real effects of light therapy from placebo (安慰剂) effects.Until now, in three separate studies published last month, researchers report not only that light therapy works better than a placebo but that treatment is usually more effective in the early morning than in the evening. In two of the groups, the placebo problem was resolved by telling patients they were comparing light boxes to a new anti-depressant device that gives off negatively charged ions (离子). The third used the timing of light therapy as the control.Why does light therapy work? No one really knows."Our research suggests it has something to do with shifting the body's internal clock," says psychiatrist Dr. Lewey. The body is programmed to start the day with sunrise, he explains, and this gets later as the days get shorter. But why such subtle shifts make some people depressed and not others is a mystery.That hasn't stopped thousands of winter depressives from trying to heal themselves. Light boxes for that purpose are available without a doctor's prescription. That bothers psychologist Michael Terman of Columbia University. He is worried that the boxes may be tried by patients who suffer from mental illness that can't be treated with light. Terman has developed a questionnaire to help determine whether expert care is needed.In any event, you should choose a reputable manufacturer. Whatever product you use should give off only visible light, because ultraviolet light damages the eyes. If you are photosensitive (对光敏感的), you may develop a rash. Otherwise, the main drawback is having to sit in front of the light for 30 to 60 minutes in the morning. That's an inconvenience many winter depressives can live with.59. What is the probable cause of Krentz's problem?A. An unexpected gain in body weight.B. Unexplained impairment of her nervous system.C. Weakening of her eyesight with the setting in of winter.D. Poor adjustment of her body clock to seasonal changes.60. What is the CURRENT view concerning the treatment of seasonal depression with bright lights?A. Its effect remains to be seen.B. It serves as a kind of placebo.C. It proves to be an effective therapy.D. It hardly produces any effects.61. What is psychologist Michael Terman's major concern?A. Winter depressives will be addicted to using light boxes.B. No mental patients would bother to consult psychiatrists.C. Inferior light boxes will give off harmful ultraviolet lights.D. Light therapy could be misused by certain mental patients.62. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Winter depressives prefer light therapy in spite of its inconvenience.B. Light therapy increases the patient's photosensitivity.C. Eye damage is a side effect of light therapy.D. Light boxes can be programmed to correspond to shifts in the body clock.CIt was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the 'decline of class' and 'classless society' in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice, Most people said this accent sounded 'educated' and 'soft'. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional(地区的)city accents. These accents were seen as 'common' and 'ugly'. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song 'Common People' puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may 'want to live like common people' they can never appreciate the reality ofa working-class life.63. A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.A. it is time to end class distinctionB. most people belong to middle classC. it is easy to recognize a person‘s classD. people regard themselves socially different64. The word stratification in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.A.varietyB.divisionC. authorityD. qualification65.British attitudes towards accent _________.A. have a long traditionB. are based on regional statusC. are shared by the AmericansD. have changed in recent years66. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The middle class is expandingB. A person‘s accent reflects his classC. Class is a key part of British societyD. Each class has unique characteristics.DMy mind went blank when I saw the gun pointing against the car window as we pulled out of the garage. This can‘t be happening to me. Then I felt the gun, cold, against my head, and I heard my friend Jeremy saying, ―What do you want? Take my wallet,‖ but at the time I thought of nothing.I remember being a little annoyed when the gunman pulled me from the car by the hair. I remember the walk to the house --- Jeremy, me, the two men with two guns. I remember the fear and anger in the gunmen‘s voices because Jeremy was being slow, and I remember wondering why he was being slow. I did not realize that Jeremy had thrown the keys into the bush. But I remember that sound of the gun hitting Jeremy‘s head and the feeling as the man who had hold ofmy hair released me. And I remember the split second when I realized he was looking at Jeremy, and I remember wondering how far I could run before he pulled the trigger. But I was already running, and upon reaching the car across the street, I didn‘t crouch(蹲伏) behind it but screamed instead.I remember thinking there was something ridiculous and illogical about screaming ―Help, help!‖ at eight o‘clock on a Tuesday evening in December and changing my plea(恳求) to the more specific ―Help, let me in, please let me in!‖ But the houses were cold, closed, unfriendly, and I ran on until I heard Jeremy‘s screams behind me announcin g that our attackers had fled.The neighbors who had not opened their doors to us came out with baseball bats and helped Jeremy find his glasses and keys. In a group they were very brave. We waited for the police to come until someone said to someone else that the noodles were getting cold, and I said politely,―Please go and eat. We‘re O.K.‖I was happy to see them go. They had been talking of stricter sentences for criminals, of bringing back the death penalty(处罚) and how the President is going to clean up the country. I was thinking, they could be saying all of this over my dead body, and I still feel that stiffer sentences wouldn‘t change a thing. In a rush all the anger I should have felt for my attackers was directed against these contented people standing in front of their warm, comfortable homes talking about all the guns they were going to buy. What good would guns have been to Jeremy and me?People all over the neighborhood had called to report our screams, and the police turned out in force twenty minutes later. They were ill-tempered about what was, to them, much trouble about nothing. After all, Jeremy was hardly hurt, and we were hopeless when it came to describing the gunmen. ―Typical,‖ said one policeman when we couldn‘t even agr ee on how tall the men were. Both of us were able to describe the guns in horrifying detail, but the two policemen who stayed to make the report didn‘t think that would be much help.The policemen were matter-of-fact about the whole thing. The thin on e said, ―That was a stupid thing to do, throwing away the keys. When a man has a gun against your head you do what you‘re told.‖ Jeremy looked properly embarrassed.Then the fat policeman came up and the thin one went to look around the outside of the house. ―That was the best thing you could have done, throwing away the keys,‖ he said. ―If you had gone into the house with them…‖ His voice became weaker. ―They would have hurt her‖ --- he twisted his head toward me –―and killed you both.‖ Jeremy looked happier. ―Look,‖ said the fat policeman kindly, ―there‘s no right or wrong in the situation. There‘s just luck.‖ All that sleepless night I replayed the moment those black gloves came up to the car window. How long did the whole thing last? Three minutes, five, eight? No matter how many hours of my life I may spend reliving it, I know there is no way to prepare for the next time --- no intelligent response to a gun. The fat cop was right. There‘s only luck. The next time I might end up dead.And I‘m sure there will be a next time. It can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. Security is an illusion(幻觉); there is no safety in locks or in guns. Guns make some people feel safe and some people feel strong, but they‘re fooling themselves.67. What most possibly drove the two gunmen away?A. Jeremy's fighting.B.The author's screaming.C.Their neighbour's brave action.D.The police's arrival.68. The author was happy to see the neighbors go because ______.A.she hated to listen to their empty talkB.she did not want to become an object of pityC.she was angered by their being late to come to her helpD.she wanted to be left alone with Jeremy to get over the shock69. The police were rather angry because ______.A.the author was not hurt and gave a false alarmB.they thought it was a case of little importanceC.the author and Jeremy could not tell the police anythingD.the gunmen had already fled when they arrived on the scene70. What the author wants to tell us is that______.A.neighbors are not helpful in moments of difficultyB.the police are not reliable when one is in troubleC.preventing robbers entering your house is the best choiceD.security is impossible as long as people can have guns第四部分任务型阅读请认真阅读下列短文, 并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

It seemed that all China had decided to 41 to the Fragrant Hills that day.The words “Fragrant Hills” paint a picture of natural 42 and harmony—not rows of shops and 43 vendors(小贩)screaming at you to buy their goods.After half an hour of 44 through the sea of bodies, we made it into the park. All pretenses(假装)of polite “Brutishness” were washed away as we 45 moved people aside with two hands—the only way of making progress. A couple of times, we attempted a bit of walking 46 the path, only to be stung(刺)by poison ivy. We sadly returned to the 47 . Then suddenly, just past a temple, we caught sight of a dirt track. The people 48 . We were the only ones there. There were 49 golden leaves and peaceful pine forests. After that we, extremely 50 , collapsed(倒)onto rocks and brought out our lunchboxes.51 the time came when we had to grit(咬紧)our teeth and throw ourselves 52 again. It took another half hour of fruitless 53 before we could collapse into a taxi. At about 7 pm, I finally arrived at my54 station, home sweet home, exhausted and aching.

As a recent article in The Guardian newspaper noted, “There’s more to understanding a joke in a foreign language than understanding vocabulary and grammar.”Being able to understand local jokes is often seen as an unbelievable ice-breaker for a language learner eager to form friendships with native speakers. “I always felt that humor was a ceiling that I could never break through,” Hannah Ashley, a public relations account manager in London, who once studied Spanish in Madrid, told The Guardian, “I could never speak to people on the same level as I would speak to a native English speaker. I almost came across as quite a boring person because all I could talk ab out was facts.”In fact, most of the time, jokes are only funny for people who share a cultural background or understand humor in the same way. Chinese-American comedian Joe Wong found this out first-hand. He had achieved huge success in the US, but when he returned to China in 2008 for his first live show in Beijing, he discovered that people didn’t think his. Chinese jokes were as funny as his English ones.In Australia, meanwhile many foreigners find understanding jokes about sports to be the biggest headache. “The hardest jokes are related to rugby because I know nothing about rugby,” said Melody Cao, who was once a student in Australia. “When I heard jokes I didn’t get, I just laughed along.”In the other two major English-speaking countries, the sense of humor is also different. British comedian Simon Peg believes that while British people use irony (反话)—basically, saying something they don’t mean to make a joke—every day, people in the US don’t see the point of using it so often. “British jokes tend to be more subtle and dark, while American jokes are more obvious with their meanings, a bit like Americans themselves,” he wrote in The Guardian.58.It is implied in the noted sentence in Paragraph 1 that ________A.making jokes is a possible way for one to learn better a foreign languageB.humor is always conveyed to foreigners through vocabulary and grammarC.vocabulary and grammar help you understand jokes in a foreign languageD.there tends to be something behind the words of a joke in a foreign language59.What can we guess about Hannah Ashley? ________A.She thinks that Spanish people generally do not have much of a sense of humor.B.She believes that one had better rely on facts when speaking a foreign language.C.She found that humor was a barrier to her getting along well with Spanish people.D.She had a better command of the Spanish language than of the English language.60.Joe Wong is used as an example to ________A.suggest that there are cultural differences in humorB.show that it’s hard to put jokes into another languageC.prove that local people have different taste in humorD.show that expressing ability affects the sense of humor61.From the article we can learn that ________A.jokes about sports are difficult for foreigners to understandB.Americans are generally more humorous than British peopleC.not all English native speakers can understand English jokes easilyD.British people’s dark jokes often make people uncomfortableCScientists are debating how to limit their newly-discovered power to change genetic structure(结构). Scientists already modify the genes(基因)of farm animals and agricultural plants to make them more productive or stronger. But now they can also change genes in wild animals and plants. These genes would continue into later generations. For example, it may be possible for scientists to remove from existence the kind of mosquitoes, small flying insects, that carry the Zia virus. They might also be able to permanently remove species(物种)of plants and animals that are damaging to other species.In a report published last week, the U. S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine(NAS)said it supports continued research on this kind of gene control. But it warned that it is not possible to know what will happen when these changed plants and animals are released(释放)into the wild.Sixteen biologists, ethicists(伦理学家)and policymakers are on an NAS committee that is examining the issue. They say that there is value to the new technology. But, they say, there is not enough evidence to support the release of modified organisms(生物体)from the laboratory into nature.Many people would support stopping mosquitoes and rats from carrying diseases. But scientists say we must understand the possible scientific, ethical, legal and social results of such action before we decide whether to take it. Gene modification is spread through reproduction(繁殖).Changed genes will continue to spread as long as an animal or plant continues to reproduce. They cannot be limited to a farm or kep t within a country’s borders. Scientists are wondering what may happen if a modified organism mates with another species. They are not yet sure how the modified genes would affect the other species. It is possible that those genes could harm those creatures or even lead to their disappearance from our planet. 62.What possible advantage does gene control in wild animals and plants have? ________A.Changing the Zia virus permanently.B.Getting rid of damaging species forever.C.Having the changed genes in their next generations.D.Making all the species more productive and stronger.63.As for genetically changed wild animals and plants, what are scientists worried about? ________A.They may become weaker or die out.B.They may be more productive than before.C.They may cause damage to their living habitat.D.Their genes may spread to later generations.64.Which of the following is true according to the passage? ________A.Scientists are certain what exact results gene modification leads to.B.Gene modification can benefit some farm animals and agricultural plants.C.Scientists won’t modify any genes before they make the final decision.D.Gene modification will be encouraged in more creatures in the near future.65.The article is mainly intended to ________A.appeal against research on gene controlB.show how to change genetic structureC.inform us of power and danger of gene controlD.give the reason why gene modification is necessaryDFor many years, scholars have regarded My Mortal Enemy as somewhat of an enigma. Written in only a few months during the early spring of 1925 and published in 1926, Willa Cather’s shortest novel was sandwiched in between The Professor’s House(1925)and Death Comes for the Archbishop(1927). While the subject matter of these latte r two works can be traced to Cather’s experience in the desert Southwest, My Mortal Enemy seemingly has nothing to do with these subjects or her Nebraska roots; it appears to have come out of nowhere, puzzling those who have tried to fit this rather irregu lar work into a logical progression of Cather’s artistic development. The question of what caused Cather to write such a novel at this point in her career, for example, has still not been answered definitively. One commonly held hypothesis(假说)was first voiced by Marcus Klein, who in his 1961 introduction to the novel wrote that for Cather, “The story of Myra Hens awe must have been a personal crisis”. Klein, though, acknowledged that he could not prove his theory, “because there is available no record othe r than the novel”. Emmy Stark Sitter has recently argued that in My Mortal Enemy and Sapphire and the Slave Girl (1940)Cather exercises the autobiographical impulse(冲击)by putting details of her own life into her fiction, but, like Klein, she is unable to name which “details” of her life Cather drew on in writing My Mortal Enemy.As hinted(暗示)in the above statements by Klein and Sitter, much of the general uncertainty about the meaning of My Mortal Enemy can be traced to the absence of a persuasive theory as to who the real-life models for the novel’s characters were and what Cather’s relationship to them was. Cather herself wrote in a 1940 letter that, in James Woo dress’s paraphrase, “she had known Myra’s real-life model very well, and the portrait drawn in the story was much as she remembered her”; Cather also added that the woman had died fifteen years before MyMortal Enemy was published, and that many relatives of this model later wrote to her to say that they recognized the “real” Myra from her description in the novel. Given such hints and Cather’s liking for drawing on her experiences in Nebraska for characters, settings, and plots, it is quite understandable that scholars have thus looked to Red Cloud and Lincoln for possible sources of the people and events depicted in My Mortal Enemy.In light of the evidence presented in this article, though, I believe that Cather intended her comments about the model for Myra Hens awe to serve as red herrings(转移注意力的言语)that would protect her relationship with the couple who were the prototypes(原型)for the Hens awes, both of whom were still alive in 1925.Mark Madigan has recently confirmed how Cather in 1905 had to hold off publishing “The Profile(传略)” because of fears that the main character might recognize herself and commit suicide, and twenty years later Cather would have been well aware of how her description of the Hens awes might have affected both the real-life wife(who died in 1929)and husband(who died in 1949)if they had recognized themselves. It is my argument that the Hens awes were modeled after people Cather knew not in Nebraska but rather in New York: S. S. and Hattie McClure. Myra’s uncle, John Driscoll, was modeled after Hattie’s father, Professor Albert Hurd.Possibly most important, identifying the Hens awes as the McClure’s allows us to more conclusively identify Cather herself with Nellie Birdseye. Nellie and Cather, both Midwestern onlookers and recorders, experienced four distinct stages in their relations hips with the Hens awes and the McClure’s(especially with S. S.)My Mortal Enemy, I believe, was an extended attempt by Cather to deal with certain aspects of her own past and to move on in a world stripped of romantic illusion.66.The underlined word “enigma” in Paragraph 1 means “________”.A.adaptation B.abstract C.best-seller D.Mystery67.Cather didn’t have My Mortal Enemy published immediately ________A.so as not to annoy the relatives of the prototype for MyraB.for fear that the prototype for Myra should be badly hurtC.because she meant to polish it by adding some new materialD.because she was forbidden to do so by the real-life couple68.We can infer from the passage that ________A.Myra Hens awe is particularly true to her prototypeB.Cather had a good relationship with the real-life modelC.the writer considers My Mortal Enemy as a great workD.scholars will put an end to their argument about the novel69.In the passage, the writer ________A.restored the truth behind Myra B.presented his own hypothesisC.made a revision to Sitter’s idea D.renewed part of Klein’s fiction70.The proper title for the passage is ________A.Uncovering Cather’s personal secret B.Unlocking the scholars’ imaginationC.Unfolding the plot of My Mortal Enemy D.Unmasking Cather’s “mortal enemy”第Ⅱ卷(两部分共35分)第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词.注意:每个空格只填1个单词.请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上.Anything that poses a challenge or a threat to our well-being is a stress. Some stresses get you going and they are good for you - without any stress at all many say our lives would be boring and would probably feel pointless. However, when the stresses undermine both our mental and physical health they are bad. Here we shall be focusing on stress that is bad for you.Stress is the feeling we have when under pressure, while stressors are the things we respond to in our environment. Examples of stressors are noises, unpleasant people, a speeding car, or even going out on a first date. Generally (but not always), the more stressors we experience, the more stressed we feel.When we are stressed the following happens:Blood pressure rises.Breathing becomes more rapid.Heart rate (pulse)rises.Muscles become tense.We do not sleep (heightened state of alertness).Most of us have varying interpretations of what stress is about and what matters. Some of us focus on what happens to us, such as breaking a bone or getting a promotion, while others think more about the event itself. How you see that stressful event will be the largest single factor that impacts on your physical and mental health.

She holds the view that it was her parents’ support that made her succeed.There is no doubt that parents’ support plays an important part in our daily life. They spare no effort to make us live a better life and their support gives us the courage to face all the difficulties in our life and studies.When I was in primary school, I was quite shy and had great difficulty communicating with others. Therefore, I often felt lonely at school. When my parents learnt about this, they tried their best to encourage me to talk to my classmates and teachers. It was with their help that I eventually overcame my shyness and built up confidence.Now, I owe all my achievements to my parents, whose support I will always treasure in my heart.(150词)解析21.考点:考查冠词【名师点睛】对于冠词的考查,几乎每次考试都会考查,考查的形式也多样,一般以选择题为主,而在做此类题时要注意:首先注意审清题意是否要使用,其次判断单复数.22.【解析】试题分析:考查固定短语.根据后文的Fantastic!可知此处句意:迈克,结果与我们先前的研究相一致.Be consistent with 与.....相一致,故选D项.考点:考查固定短语【名师点睛】固定短语的考查需要考生的长期积累,注意把握积累的方向,在考试时能够准确无误的应用. 23.考点:考查固定短语24.【解析】试题分析:考查名词.句意:我不认为你意识到情况的严重性,否则你不会感到很放松.gravity 重要性,严重性,故选A项.考点:考查名词25.【解析】试题分析:考查固定短语.句意:即将举行的音乐会将致敬世界著名的音乐家,音乐会上会亲自演奏最爱的音乐.in salute to在致敬,故选D项.考点:考查固定短语26.【解析】试题分析:考查宾语从句.句意:在国外旅行时,你应该记住你应该怎样做.故选C项.考点:考查宾语从句【名师点睛】置于动词、介词等词性后面起宾语作用的从句叫宾语从句.宾语从句的语序必须是陈述语序.谓语动词、介词、动词不定式,v.-ing形式后面都能带宾语从句.有些形容词(afraid, sure, glad等)之后也可以带宾语从句.宾语从句的语序是陈述句语序即:连接代词/副词+主语+谓语+其他成分.27.考点:考查固定短语28.【解析】试题分析:考查固定短语.句意:这些年轻人不适合在办公室里这么简单的工作,因为他们在大自然中是具有冒险精神和有创造力的.in that因为故选B项.考点:考查固定短语29.【解析】试题分析:考查被动语态.句意:你为什么在这里?你应该在实验室里做实验.(是别人让他在实验室做实验)故选B项.考点:考查被动语态【名师点睛】被动语态由“助动词be+及物动词的过去分词”构成.人称、数和时态的变化是通过be的变化表现出来的.把主动语态的宾语变为被动语态的主语. 把谓语变成被动结构(be+过去分词),根据被动语态句子里的主语的人称和数,以及原来主动语态句子中动词的时态来决定be的形式.把主动语态中的主语放在介词by之后作宾语,将主格改为宾格.30.考点:考查固定用法31.【解析】试题分析:考查形容词.句意:不要指望他向经理投诉.他真是胆小.在此处yellow是指胆怯的;故选D项.考点:考查形容词32.【解析】试题分析:考查固定短语.句意:我想出去吃饭,但另一方面,我应该设法省钱.on the other hand 另一方面,其余不符合题意:on the contrary相反; for one thing为了一件事情;in the end最后;故选B项.考点:考查固定短语33.考点:考查现在完成进行时【名师点睛】现在完成进行时表示现在以前这一段时间里一直在进行的动作,这动作可能仍在进行,也可能已停止.现在完成时通常只陈述事实,而现在完成进行时还可表示一种感情色彩.构成:have+been+doing.34.【解析】试题分析:考查宾语从句.句意:在生活中没有人能成功.换句话说,你可能会失败,在别人成功之处失败,故选A项.考点:考查宾语从句35.考点:考查固定短语41.A考查动词.A.come来,B.adapt接受,C.contribute贡献,D.stick粘贴;句意:似乎所有的中国人都决定在那一日来香山.故选A.42.D考查名词.A.phenomena现象,B.forces力量,C.state陈述,D.beauty漂亮;此处指的是自然美景与和谐的画.故选D.43.A考查形容词.根据下文“screaming at you to buy their goods.”可知,摊贩很嘈杂.noisy嘈杂的.故选A.44.D考查动词.根据下文“we made into the park.”可知,在人海中挣扎了半小时.struggle努力,挣扎.故选D.45.C考查副词.A.angrily愤怒的,B.arbitrarily武断的,C.physically物理的,身体上的,D.unconsciously无意识的;句意:当我们用双手将人群身体推开的时候,我们假装的英国式的礼貌都不见了.故选C.46.B考查介词.根据下文“only to be stung by poison ivy.”可知,作者想离开道路.Walk off离开正途.故选B.47.B考查名词.根据上文“only to be stung by poison ivy.”可知,我们难过地回到人群中.crowd人群.故选B.48.D考查动词.根据下文“We were the only ones there.”可知,人们都消失了.disappeared消失.故选D.49.C考查句意理解.句意:这里有我们金色的树叶和宁静的松树林.故选C.考点:考查故事类文章阅读【名师点睛】故事类文章是高考选材之一、这类文章常通过叙述突出人物性格特征或讲述个人经历与感悟,以及逸闻趣事.文章的要素有时间、地点、人物、事件等.有些是按事件发展的经过为主线叙述的,在叙述的过程中有详有略;有些是按时间的顺序叙述的,有顺叙、倒叙等.高考选用的此类文章常常为幽默类或情感类故事,其目的或阐明某种观点,或抨击某种陋习,或赞扬某种品德,所以要关注作者表达的个人感悟,提出的个人意见,或故事中出其不意的变化,而这些往往体现文章中心或写作意图,属于必考点.解这类完形填空时要注意:1.精读第一句它是了解全文大意的基石.完形填空文章的第一句话通常是没有空白的完整句子,而且第一句往往是文章的主题句(Topic Sentence),或是含有主题词的句子,考生可以根据它来把握文章的中心思想,为下面答题奠定基础.这里,首先我们要知道英文的主题句的特点.一个有效的主题句应该有以下两个标准:1.Topic:主题或议题.明确指示段落的内容,起到限定主题范围的作用.2.Opinion:反映作者对待主题的观点、印象、态度,起到限定段落基调的作用.知道了英文主题句的特点之后,我们在阅读完型填空文章的第一句话时,就不应该只是读懂其字面中文意思,而是要透过首句来预测文章的中心内容,为接下来做题把准方向.比如第37题:考查固定用法.根据下文“We looked forward with childish to golden leaves”可知,作者和两个老外一起去香山.gathered up使聚集.故选C.知道文章大意是要去香山此处就不难选出.2.掌握几种逻辑关系词考生在做这类题目是一定要很好地把握上下文逻辑关系,掌握常见的几种表示转折、让步、条件、因果、并列等逻辑关系的词,再根据上下文语境判断出最佳答案.比如第51题:考查句意理解.根据前后文的关系可知此处为转折关系.故选D.3.准确把握逻辑关系。

People often ask me how I write with four children.More often than not, my stories are pieced together, written, and edited in a series of 36 moments. If I’m working while the kids are home, I have the added 37 of tuning out their chaos. I’ll write and write until I fall under a spell, and just when I was getting 38 , it happens—Camille will 39 into my office wearing a big smile—and a smelling diaper (尿布).I wish I had a daily 40 , a solid time no one can interrupt, but I don’t. I may go days or even weeks without writing. I hate these 41 , but much as I like to believe the world needs my writing, my daughters need me much more. So for now I write when I can. While this arrangement works, I sometimes 42 how productive I’d be if my life wasn’t stop-and-go. With time on my side, I could be a writing machine, 43 at once what would normally take me months.This leads me to a question I find 44 to all parents: Do kids hold back or 45 our dreams? Children are needy by nature, and regardless of how much 46 we show them, they want more. By the time we tend to them, we’re tired out—and 47 in the mood to follow our dream. They push our personal pleasures 48 and slow us down, making tortoises out of hares.On the other hand, children add a richness to our lives that I believe inspires better work, thus 49 for time we lose. As a writer, I don’t find inspira tion sitting at my computer. 50 , I find it when I’m out living, and the 51 I take because of my children—going to the ballpark, birthday parties, even doctor visits—put me in 52 with people who constantly set off new ideas. Many ideas arise through 53 conversation, which can 54 me like thunder. Immediately, I’ll make a mental note, knowing that someday I’ll use that 55 in a story.36.A. quiet B. stolen C. critical D. precious37.A. courage B. challenge C. instruction D. priority38.A. direction B. invention C. inspiration D. application39.A. crawl B. run C. jog D. tiptoe40.A. habit B. method C. technique D. routine41.A. breaks B. days C. weeks D. needs42.A. doubt B. believe C. deny D. wonder43.A. operating B. working C. accomplishing D. running44.A. challenging B. remaining C. relevant D. controversial45.A. prevent B. inspire C. awake D. interpret46.A. attention B. effort C. concentration D. time47.A. hardly B. practically C. totally D. fairly48.A. ahead B. back C. aside D. down49.A. allowing B. turning C. calling D. compensating50.A.
