Then he discovered that an old friend of his was one of the jury at his trial.Of course, he didn’t tell anybody, but he managed to see his friend secretly one day.He said to him, “Jim, I know that the jury will find me guilty of having stolen the money.I cannot hope to be found not guilty of taking it—that would be too much to expect.But I should be grateful to you for the rest of my life if you could persuade the other members of the jury to add a strong recommendation for mercy(从轻量刑 )to their statement that they consider me guilty.” “Well, George,” answered Jim, “I shall certainly try to do what I can for you as an old friend, but of course I cannot promise anything.The other eleven people on the jury look terribly strong—minded to me.” George said that he would quite understand if Jim was not able to do anything for him, and thanked him warmly for agreeing to help. The trial went on, and at last the time came for the jury to decide whether George was guilty or not.It took them five hours, but in the end they found George guilty, with a strong recommendation for mercy. Of course, George was very pleased, but he didn’t have a chance to see Jim for some time after the trial.At last, however, Jim visited him in prison, and George thanked him warmly and asked him how he had managed to persuade the other members of the jury to recommendation mercy. “Well, George,” Jim answered, as I thought, those eleven men were very difficult to persuade, but I managed it in the end by tiring them out.Do you know, those fools had all wanted to find you not guilty!” 56.Which phrase best defines a “jury”?A.A person who works in a court.B.A policeman.C.A judge.D.A group of people who decide if someone on trial is guilty or not guilty.57.According to the passage George wanted his friend Jim ___ .A.to help him run away from prisonB.to believe he was not guiltyC.to make others believe that he was guiltyD.to make the jury ask for less punishment for George.58.Jim couldn’t promise anything.Why?A.He thought George was guilty.B.George’s case was too serious.C.The other members might not listen to his recommendation.D.He didn’t want to help George.59.Why did George feel pleased about the decision?A.He thought he deserved the punishment.B.Jim did what he had promised.C.He would be set free immediately.D.The punishment was less severe than expected.B If there is any single factor that makes for success in living, it is the ability to profit by defeat.Every success I know have achieved because the person was able to analyze defeat and actually profit by it in his next undertaking.Confuse defeat with failure, and you are doomed (注定) indeed to failure.For it isn’t defeat that makes you fail: it is your own refusal to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success. Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of.They are routine incidents in the life of every man who achieves success.But defeat is a dead loss unless you face it without humiliation, analyze(分析) it and leave why you have failed.Defeat, in other words, can help to cure its own cause.Not only does defeat prepare us for success, but nothing can arouse within us such a compelling desire to succeed.If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will hold more and more tightly until his whole weight is suspended.It is the same reaction as should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated.If you exploit the power which defeats give, you can accomplish with it far more than you are capable of.60.The person who is able to analyze his defeat is likely ___ .A.to be more capable of doing thingsB.to be a successorC.to be ashamed of his defeatD.to know himself better61.Defeat is valuable because ___ .A.it makes you a better thinkerB.it forces you to face it without humiliationC.it provides the guide to achievement.D.It enables you to analyze events successfully62.It is implied in the passage that ___ .A.the author thinks there is only one factor which makes for success in livingB.defeat necessarily leads to successC.people often confuse defeat with failure D.we must face defeat courageously63.What is the author’s attitude towards defeat?A.One of being ashamed.B.One of being interested.C.One of being discouraged.D.One of being hopeful.64.The word “humiliation” (in Para.2) could best be replaced by which of the following? A.being encouraged. B.being confused C.being ashamed D.being defeatedC Desert plants fall into two sorts according to the way they deal with the problem of surviving drought.There are the drought—avoiders—those which persist(存留) only as seeds, ready to spring up when it rains, to flower quickly and produce another crop of seeds, and to die again.There are also the drought—resisters—those which have evolved various methods for strong water, locating underground water, or reducing their need for water by such devices as shedding their leaves.The drought—resisters are perennials(多年生植物),they manage to live from one rainy season to another, slowly growing bigger and bigger.Of these, the succulents(肉质的) is a small but interesting fraction(小部分).They may store water in their leaves, in their stems, or in underground containers. In the American deserts the best—known succulents are the cacti(仙人掌).They come in a wide range of sizes, from 50—foot tall giant saguaros(树形仙人掌) to tiny round cacti about the size of a thumb—nail.They take thick, cylindrical(圆柱体的) or even spherical forms, thereby exposing a minimum of evaporating surface to the air and light.They are leafless, except in youth, and then the leaves are small.Typically their surfaces are spiny, discouraging thirsty animals, and channeled like an accordion(手风琴), so the fleshy stem may expand quickly when the plant drinks and contract slowly as it uses up the water.The root system is widespread and shallow, with good reason; only about 3 per cent of the rain that falls on the desert penetrates to any significant depth into soil.65.The passage classifies(将……分类) the desert plants according to ___ .A.the ways they take to deal with the typical climatic condition in desertB.their shapeC.how they use waterD.when they produce their seeds66.According to the passage, some desert plants drop their leaves ___ .A.because the temperature is too highB.so that the plants can evaporate less waterC.because they are drought resistersD.so that the plants can store more water67.What interests the author most when he or she mentions succulents is that ___ .A.they take thick cylindrical or even spherical shapeB.they are best—known in AmericaC.they have many ways of containing waterD.some of them can be very tiny68.The passage gives us an impression that ___ .A.the desert plants are shaped in a way as if them were designed by somebody on purposeB.more water is needed in desert so that more desert plants can grow thereC.more lands will be turned into desert if we do not try harder to save water in our daily lifeD.the cacti are the most famous desert plants in AmericaD If you do not use your arms or your legs some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again.Everybody knows this and nobody would think of questioning this fact.Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it frequently either consciously(自觉地) or unconsciously.When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he doesn’t give it enough chances to become strong.If a friend complains that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault.But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think his parents are to blame and that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much as his own fault as if it is his arms or legs that were weak.69.It is true that the more you use your arms or legs, ___ .A.the weaker they becomeB.the stronger they becomeC.they will be uselessD.the more helpless they are70.When someone has a good memory, this is because ___ .A.his parents are very cleverB.he was born cleverC.he keeps using his memory very oftenD.he always does things in a correct way71.If someone’s memory is poor, ___ .A.his parents are to blameB.he is unluckyC.he has grown olderD.he should give it more chances to become strong72.This passage mainly tells us that ___ .A.one’s memory can be trainedB.one should practise using his arms or legs more frequentlyC.if someone has a good memory, he is usually luckyD.it’s his parents fault if he has a poor memoryEThursday, December 30, 2004 (New Delhi):The international aid agency, Red Cross has warned that the toll(某事造成的损失) in the tsunami(海嘨) disaster could go up to 1,00,000.The official figures of those confirmed(被证实的) dead is 80,000.Of these Indonesia accounts for the most at 45,268, followed by Sri Lanka with the toll at 22,493.As many as 6,974 people have been killed in India, with 1,829 dead in Thailand, 100 in Somalia, 90 in Myanmar, 67 in Maldives, 65 in Malaysia, 10 in Tanzania, three in Seychelles, two in Bangladesh and one person killed in Kenya.Rising figuresAccording to unofficial estimates, the death toll(死亡人数)could be over 10,000 in India.The hardest hit has been the Andaman and Nicobar islands, with over 3,000 dead.Though the official government figure for Car Nicobar is 124, that number could go up dramatically with thousands more still missing.In Tamil Nadu, according to official estimates, over 6000 are dead, with 3500 in Nagapattinam alone.73.According to the news, the second largest number of those confirmed death is in ___ . A.Indonesia B.Malaysia C.Sri Lanka D.Thailand74.In this report, there are ____ countries suffering from this tsunami disaster. A.ten B.eleven C.twelve D.eight75.Which of the following about the news is true?A.According to the official estimates, over 10,000 people died in this tsunami in India.B.According to the unofficial estimates, 100 people died in this tsunami in Somalia.C.According to the official estimates, 100,000 people died in this tsunami.D.According to the news, the death toll could go up in this tsunami.第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节 短文改错(共10小题,每小题1分;满分10分)此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。对标有题号的每一行作出判断;如无错误,在该行右边横线上画一个勾(√);如有错误(每行只有一个错误),则按下列情况改正:该行多一个词:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉,在该行右边横线上写出该词,并也用斜线划掉。该行缺一个词:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),在该行右边横线上写出该加的词。该行错一个词;在错的词下划一横线,在该行右边横线上写出改正后的词。注意:原行没有错的不要改。Have you ever heard the saying: All work and no play 76.____makes Jack a dull boy?

break down为“(机器)出故障”。31.C that引导定语从句,并在从句中作give的宾语, 而why是副词,作状语。32.B come across意思是“偶然遇到、碰上、找到、想到、产生效果”;come about意为“产生、发生”;come through是“(从遭遇困难、危险中)脱险,度过”;come up“长出地面;发生”.。33.B special意思是“特别的、专门的”; especial意思是“专门的,特别”; excited 意思是“激动的”; particular意思是“挑剔的”,符合句意。34.C 意思是“我随便;我无所谓。”35.A at one’s service意思是“随时帮助某人”36.A 根据句意,这里需要表示让步的连词。37.C 根据上下文,该句意思是道路护养得很好。既然讲护得好,那前提条件应该是原来不错,所以选smooth意为“平坦的”。38.B以Although引导的状语从句谈的都是公路好的、有利的方面。那么道路上弯道少是有利的方面。弯道是可数名词,所以选few。39.D此题考查词意义的区别。sections意为“选择”;separations意为“分离,隔开”;divisions意为把整体“分,分割”;sections指事物的“段;部分”铁路的“段”,所以应选sections。句意为“弯道少,直线路段多” 。40.C 该题应考虑到整句的意思。该句的状语从句谈的是公路好的、有利的方面。但后面的语气一转,意思就变了。所以选enjoyable。41.D是固定搭配,pass by意为“经过”,符合该句的意思。pass to意为“转到”;pass into意为“变成”;pass over意为“忽略”。42.B 该句的意思是“这些公路一般都连接大城市中心”。Connect正是“连接,相连”的意思。而 lead 必须与to连用,才能表达这个意思。43.D 这里的意思是“车辆多,交通拥挤”。heavy traffic是交通拥挤的意思。44.A 空格所在位置是个非限制性定语从句,表示的是时间,所以选关系副词when。45.C 从语法角度看,这里应填副词。空格后的关联词是always,意思是“总是”。此句意思是“如果你不着急,几乎总能有另一条路可走”。almost意思是“几乎,差不多”,符合该句的意思。46.B 从语法角度看,这里应填连词,引导状语从句,意思是“如果你不着急。”所以应选if。47.A 空格后是形容词new,该空格处应填副词。后面句子中的older是比较级,那么前面的形容词new也应有比较的意思。所以选relatively。48.B 解释同上。49.D 该句的意思是“这些道路,有些是平坦的双车道,有些则不平坦,蜿蜒经过田野。”50.C 解释同上。51.B 该句意思是“这些非主干道路可以爬上陡峭的斜坡,沿着悬崖延伸,或又转下可怕的山坡。”从上下文看,爬上陡峭的斜坡必然沿着悬崖延伸,而不沿着大道或小路。52.A lying意思是“坐落” lying 是lie的分词和动名词形式。53.D从语法角度看,这里是个定语从句,关系副词where修饰先行词places。54.C have a chance是固定词组,表示“有机会”。55.A.此句的意思是“有机会欣赏到人间清新、洁净的景色”。view意为“景色”56.D 本题属于判断词义题。由第二段第三句可知陪审团(jury)有权利判定某人犯了何罪,而且从下文可知jury的成员有二十人,并非指单个的人,由此看来选项A、B、C皆不合适,故选D。57.D 答案在第二段最后一句。此句提到乔治请求吉姆说服陪审团其他成员在叛军上加一条请求从轻量刑。从recommendation这一词组可推断出是请求轻判,而其他选项均无此义意,故选D58.C答案在第三段最后一句。从句中terribly strong—minded可知,陪审团另外十一人很固执,不易被说服。而C选项意为:陪审团的其他成员可能不会听从吉姆的建议。这与本题意义相符。另外本题可用排除法也可知选项A、B文中未提及,D与原文意义相悖。59.D答案在第五段最后一句。由上下文可知乔治明知自己肯定会被判为有罪,而判决结果却从轻量刑,这恰是乔治所希望的。60.A第一段第二句可知,能够分析自己受挫原因的人在以后的工作中会受益于它。选项A意为“更有能力处理好事情”,较接近此意。而选项B、D在原文中并未提及,C与原意相悖。61.C答案在第一段最后一句:不是受挫使你失败,是你自己没有看到受挫带来的指导及鼓励作用才使你失败。选项A、B、D都是读者可能分析出来的受挫原因,但并非文中提到的原因,而C意为“受挫能指导人们成功”,正符合上下文之意。62.D本题为推断题。选项意为“作者认为只有一个因素有助于成功”。而原文并非特指哪一个。选项B原文中并无此意且有常识也可判断其出错。C项也错,因文中并未说他们常把二者搞混,只是给出了一个假设条件“如果混淆了受挫和失败”,因此,只有D才符合全文之义。63.D本题属于有关主旨的题目。问的是作者对待受挫的态度。从第一段最后一句及第二段第一句可排除A、C两项,而B项中的“interested”一词并未说明作者的确切态度,而且从文中多次用的 “profit by defeat”上可知作者对受挫的态度是肯定的,因此D为正确的答案。64.C本题属于推测词义题。第二段第一句说“失败并不值得羞愧,是成功者遇到的常事”,下文说“受挫是个不可挽回的损失,除非你不……”这属于前后呼应,由此可推断出humiliation与being ashamed意义应大致相同,故选C。65.A 本文第一句指出,沙漠中的植物根据其在干旱中的生活方式,可分为两种,众所周知,干旱是沙漠地区的典型特征,因此,选项A 符合原文。66.B 文章第一段第三句提到有些沙漠植物通过脱落业子的方式减少对水的需求。常设告诉我们,叶子是蒸发水分的,脱叶可以减少对水分的蒸发消耗,从而减少植物对水分需求。故选B。67.C第一段最后两句指出:肉质植物很有趣,它们将水分存于叶、茎或地下的贮水结构中。第二段便具体地讲述肉质植物不同的贮水方式,选项C总结了这一特点,与原文内容相符。68.A 从第二段的描述看,仙人掌的形状、叶子、根系等非常适宜贮水、吸收水分。其结构之巧妙,仿佛专门为之进行了设计。选项A符合原文。69.B 答案在第一段第一句。意思是:如果你再开始使用它们,它们会慢慢地变得强壮。故选B。70.C 从文中第一段倒数第二句描述看,他在实践中常常自觉或不自觉地运用记忆。选项C符合原文。71.D 从文中第一段最后一句看,只有选项D符合原文的意思。72.A 答案在文章第一段的第一句和最后一段的最后一句。作者指出手臂和腿需要使用、锻炼,同样,人的记忆也需要使用、锻炼。选项A符合原文。73.C 答案在第二段最后一句。其意思是印度尼西亚死亡的人数最多,接下来是斯里兰卡。74.C 通读全文可以找到他们是:Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, Thailand, Somalia, Myanmar, Maldives, Malaysia, Tanzania, Seychelles Bangladesh, Kenya.75.D 选项A错的原因是应把“official”改成“unofficial”;选项B中的 “unofficial”应为“official”。选项C错的原因是原文中第一段提到“could go up to 1,00,000”意思是“可能会上升到”,并非指已经死亡的人数。故选项D正确。76.在heard后加 of, hear of 表“听说”77.正确78.times改为 time, all the time 表示“一直”79.a 去掉, fun是不可数名词,have fun表“过得快乐”80.him 改成them,them指代 your friends81.talk后加about,talk about表示“谈论”82.try 后加to, try to do表“尽力、努力地做某事”83.what改为that,that引导宾语从句,从句不缺成分,所以不用what.84.for改成with/against, compete for表示“为……竞争”,而表示compete with/against“与……人竞争”85.happier改成 happy,次句中没有比较的对象,因此不用比较级。One possible version:Dear Sir, I bought an MP3 player at ABC E—market three weeks ago.I had used it several days when the player didn’t work.I took it to the market but they told me it was the factory’s fault, and that I should take it to the factory.S0 I went to the factory.Luckily, the man in the factory agreed to help me.He said he would send it back to me in 7 days.But I waited two weeks.I don’t know what has happened.If you get everything ready for the player, will you please send it back to me as soon as possible.
