Ⅴ.阅读理解
The crystal clear，blue water and the magnificent sun make the Caribbean Island of Saint Maarten a favorite vacation spot，one that is popular with North Americans during their winter holidays from December through March，as well as with South Americans and Europeans from April through August.The French and Dutch settled on the island in the 1600s，and to this day，the island is divided between the two of them.The French capital is Marigot; the Dutch capital is Philipsburg.
Tourists soon discover that Saint Maarten has an interesting history.Ancient artifacts (手工艺器) found on the island date back to the Stone Age,6,000 years ago！Tourists also learn that 1,200 years ago the Arawak Indians lived on all the islands of the West Indies and were peaceful people living under the guidance of their chiefs.Three hundred years after the Arawaks first arrived on Saint Maarten，in the 1300s，they were defeated and forced to give up the island by a hostile tribe of Indians originating in South America.This new tribe was called the Carib.The Caribbean Sea was named after them.Unlike the Arawaks，they had no permanent chiefs or leaders，except in times of strife when the chiefs led them to fight.And they were extremely warlike.Worse，they were man－eaters，eating the enemy warriors they caught.In fact，the very word cannibal (means man－eater) comes from the Spanish name for the Carib Indians.The Spanish arrived in the fifteenth century and，unfortunately，they carried diseases to which the Indians had no immunity (免疫)．
Many Indians were infected with common European illnesses；others died from the hard labor forced upon them.
1．One can infer from the passage that the Stone Age people lived on Saint Maarten around the year________.
A．6000 BC. B．4000 BC.
C．800 AD. D．1300 AD.
2．Which of the following is NOT true about the Carib Indians?
A．The sea was named after them.
B．They were peaceful fishermen，hunters and farmers.
C．They ate human flesh.
D．They settled after defeating the Arawak Indians.
3．We can infer from the passage that the underlined word “strife” means “________”．
A．chief B．war
C．duty－free D．danger
4．According to the article，present－day Saint Maarten________.
A．belongs to the Spanish
B．is independent
C．is shared by the French and the Dutch
D．is part of the U．S.Virgin Islands

Wet weather doesn’t agree with her.

(2)agree to后接表示“提议；办法；计划等”的词(如：proposal，plan，arrangement等)。

Ⅲ.1.(1)for example (2)such as (3)such as
[(1)such as用来列举事物的一部分，常用在表示总称的名词和列举的事物之间，不能全部列举出来，意为“诸如；像……”，相当于like。

“例如”。]

(2)reward n. & vt.指对某人的工作或服务等的报答，也可指帮助警察抓到罪犯或帮助失主找到东西而得到的酬金或赏金。]
Ⅳ.1.B [句意为：没有专业的辅导，你弹钢琴可能会染上一些不良的习惯。keep up表示“继续保持”；catch up表示“赶上”；draw up表示“起草，拟定”。pick up a lot of bad habits表示“染上一些坏习惯”，符合句意。]
2．B [do sth.in anger表示某人生气地做什么，故选B项。]
3．C [前为“让人失望的”，用disappointing，后为“人对……失望”，应用disappointed，故选C项。]
4．D [考查名词辨析。句意为：人们普遍认可婴儿们学习做事是由于某些特定的行为给他们带来奖励。reward指对某人的行为给予回报；prize多指在各类比赛、竞赛或抽奖中所得的奖；award指对工作出色或完成所提出的要求或条件以进行的奖励；result指结果。]

9．A [此处though放在句末，表示“然而，可是”，符合句意“在结冰的运动场上玩听起来很有趣，然而，是不是太危险了呢？”]
10．C [句意为：考试结束后，Tom说漫长的寒冬(终于)结束了。in the end最后；at an end结束；on end不停地，竖着。C项符合语境。]
Ⅴ.1.B [细节理解题。根据第二段“Ancient artifacts(手工艺器) found on the island date back to the Stone Age,6,000 years ago！” 和现在已经超过公元2000年，可推知答案是公元前4000年。]
2．B [推理判断题。由第二段中的“And they were extremely warlike.Worse，they were man－eaters...”可知B项的内容与这些矛盾。故答案为B项。]
3．B [词义猜测题。strife前面的“Unlike the Arawaks，they had no permanent chiefs or leaders.”说明 the Carib 平时没有首领，except 后面的部分表示例外的情况，只有战时才需要，因此strife可理解为war。]
4．C [细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句话“...to this day，the island is divided between the two of them.The French capital is Marigot；the Dutch capital is Philipsburg.”可判断现在Saint Maarten 是法国和荷兰共有的。]
