C. congratulations D. better luck next time
【答案】D
【解析】
试题分析:A 你是对的;B 祝福你;C 祝贺你!D 下次好运!句义:—我真的以为我被提供了
这份工作。—好的,下次好运吧!根据前一句可知实际上他并没有得到这份工作。故第二句
表示祝愿对方下次好运。故 D 正确。
考点:考查交际用语
2. Animals are obviously ______ lower form of life than _______ man.
A. a ; / B. the ; the C. a ; the D. / ; /
【答案】A
【解析】
考查冠词。第一空表示“一种生命的形式”;第二空 man 表“人类”,不用冠词。故答案选 A。
3.The quality of education in this small school is better than ______ in some larger schools.
A. that B. one
C. it D. this
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查代词。句意:这所小学校的教育质量要好于一些大学校。句中代词代指不可数
名词 the quality of education,故用代词 that。代词 it 和 one 都代指可数名词单数。故选 A。代
词 it, one 和 that 都可指代前面提到的名词。一般说来,it 指代同名同物;one 与 that 则指代同名异物,但 one 为泛指,相当于 a/an+名词,只可代指可数名词;that 为特指,相当于 the+名
词,可以代指不可数名词。one 既可代替事物,也可代替人,that 只能代替事物而不能代替人。
掌握好这些知识就不难选出答案。
4. Everyone will go through life's stages of ups and downs, ________ selfrespect plays a key role in
the maturity(成熟) of a person.
A. when B. which C. as D. that
【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析:A;考查定语从句关系词。句意:每个人都会经历人生的起起伏伏,这时候自尊对
一个人成熟起着关键的作用。这里用了定语从句,先行词是 life’s stages,定语从句中不缺主
宾表,缺少的是时间状语,用 when 引导定语从句。根据句意,故选 A
考点:考查定语从句关系词
5. An artist who was recently traveling on a ferry to the southern island discovered ________ a long
lost antique Greek vase.
A. at random B. by chance
C. in turn D. on occasion
【答案】B
【解析】
试题分析:考查介词短语的含义。at random 任意地,随机地;by chance 偶然地;in turn 依次,
轮流,反而;on occasion 有时,偶然。句意:最近,乘渡轮去南部岛屿旅游的一位艺术家发
现了一个失传已久的希腊花瓶。
【名师点睛】介词短语辨析是高考常考点。解答这类题目,首先要知道各选项词组的意思,
其次要理解题干的意思,然后像数学中的代入法一样,依次把各个选项意思放入句子中进行
比较,不难选出正确答案。关键还是在平时学习的过程中,多积累多总结多记忆。
6.If the project______before the end of this month is delayed,the construction company will be made
fully responsible for the financial losses.
A. being completed B. completed C. to be completed D.
completing
【答案】C【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:如果这个月底预计完工的大楼建设的工期被拖延的话,建筑
公司将对经济损失负全部责任。分析句子可知,句子的谓语动词是 is delayed,故 complete 用
非谓语动词形式作定语,由时间状语 by the end of this month 可知,complete 是将来的动作,且
与先行词 project 是被动关系,故应该用不定式的被动式作定语。故选 C。
【点睛】非谓语动词解题策略:
1、首先查看句子是否缺少谓语动词,以判断是否使用非谓语动词。高中学习中,一般情况下
同一个句子不能出现两个谓语,如果句子有谓语则选择非谓语;
2、判断语态,根据动作执行者和承受者来判断是使用主动还是被动语态。
3、判断时态,根据动作的先后关系等,判断应该使用的时态。
7.The fish we ate at the restaurant yesterday was very delicious.I'd like to have it again even if it
costs_______.
A. twice as much B. much more twice C. as much twice D. as twice
much
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查倍数表达法。句意:昨天我们在餐馆吃的鱼很可口。我还想再吃一次,即使它
花费两倍价钱。看选项有 as 以及 twice,可知是考查倍数的表达方式。倍数的表达方式是:倍
数+as+adj / adv./ n.+ as,第一个句子中已经交代了比较对象,也就是昨天吃的鱼,所以在第
二个句子中,第二个 as 后面的内容可以省略。本来应该是 twice as much as it cost yesterday,省
略之后就是 twice as much。故选 A。
8.His confident words have ________ our doubts about how the plan will be carried out.
A. brought in B. taken up
C. cut in D. cleared up
【答案】D
【解析】
考查动词短语辨析。句意:他自信的言语消除了我们对如何实施这个计划的疑虑。clear up“消
除,解释,澄清,(天气)转晴”,符合句意。bring in“引进,生产,增加”;take up“拿起,开始
从事(新工作等),占据(时间,地方)”;cut in“插话,(突然)强行超车”。此处指消除顾虑,故选
D.9.________her mother after being separated for 20 years, she couldn't help, even though she tried not
to, _______.
A. Seen; crying B. To see; cry C. Seeing; crying D. Having
seen; cry
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:分别 20 年后再见到她母亲,即使她努力的不哭,她还是忍
不住哭了。分析句子可知,主句是 she couldn't help crying,see 和 cry 都使用非谓语动词形式,
see 做状语,和逻辑主语 she 构成主动关系,使用现在分词,故 A、D 项错误;第二空是固定
结构 can’t help doing 忍不住做某事,综上所述,故选 C。
10.No one _______be more generous; he has a heart of gold.
A. need B. must C. dare D. could
【答案】D
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查情态动词。句意:没人比他更慷慨;他有一颗金子般的心。“No one could be more
generous”是否定词和比较级连用,表达最高级含义,D 项 could 可以在否定句中表示推测,
为正确答案。B 项表示肯定性推测,只用在肯定句中;dare 和 need 不符合句意。故选 D。
11. The dog may be a good companion for the old. _______, the need to take it for
walks may be a disadvantage.
A. Besides. B. However C. Therefore D. Instead.
【答案】B
【解析】
考查连词 前一句话有 good,后面一句话有 disadvantage,前后两句话有转折关系,所以选择
however。句意:狗也许是老年人的好陪伴。然而需要带着狗去散步时也许有不便。
12.—Why didn’t you pay the accommodation rent?
—The rent? That isn’t ________ till Sunday.
A. sure B. okay
。C. due D. late
【答案】C
【解析】
考查交际用。A. It all depends.那就看情况而定了,B. It’s up to you.由你决定,C. You are crazy!
你发疯了,D. That isn’t due yet.还没有到期,句意:--你为什么不付租金?--租金?还没有到期。
根据句意选 C。
13.Due to the ________ of this medical technology, some diseases can be treated at the early stage.
A. appreciation B. application
C. appointment D. approach
【答案】B
【解析】
试题分析:appreciation 感谢,欣赏,application 应用,申请,appointment 约会,approach 方
法,接近。句意:由于这种医疗技术的应用,一些疾病可以在早期得到治疗。
考点: 名词
14.---Sorry to_____________ you, but could I ask a quick question?
---No problem.
A. trouble B. prevent C. disappoint D. worry
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意:对不起打扰了,我可以快速问个问题吗?——不客气。
A. trouble 麻烦;打扰;B. prevent 阻止;C. disappoint 使失望;D. worry 是担心。询问别人问题
时礼貌用语是 Sorry to trouble you。对不起打扰你了。故选 A。
15. I want to tell you is the deep love and respect I have for my parents.
A. That B. Which C. Whether D. What
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查名词性从句。句意:“我想告诉你的是我深爱我的父母并很尊重他们。”名词性从
句的连词选用规则是:根据意思,缺什么就填什么,什么都不缺就填 that。我们必须特别关注
what 所引导的名词性从句,what 引导名词性时,必须在句中担当主、宾、表等成分,意思是
“……的事或东西”,一般也不能用逗号和主句分割开来,插入语除外。我们还要关注 whatever与 what 的区别,前者有两个意思——无论什么或 anything that…(任何东西),而后者只表示
“……的事或东西”;whatever 与 no matter what 的区别在于前者既可以引导名词性从句也可以
引导状语从句,而后者只能引导状语从句。其他配对词的用法也是类似的。故选 D。

Dr.Teruo Higa was born on December 28, 1941 on Okinawa and grew up there. He studied
agriculture and took his doctorate from the Agricultural Research Department of Kyushu University
Graduate School. He became a lecturer in 1970 and has been professor of horticulture since 1982.
Dr.Higa is famous for creating EM technology.He created EM technology in order to address the
problem of excess wastes and bad farming techniques in the present-day world. EM stands for
effective microorganisms. It is a multi-culture of coexisting anaerobic and aerobic microorganisms.
Microorganisms are the smallest complete units of life. They can exist independent of a bigger
organism. Bacteria are considered microorganisms. They are constantly at work, some helping bigger
organisms,and others bringing decay and bad health. These opposing processes of constructive and
destructive forces are always ongoing, creating a balance. If the balance tips towards the destructive
side, the host organism grows ill. lf it tips towards the constructive side, the organism experiences
good health.
These organisms can be used in farming to create a good growing environment for all kinds of
crops and animals. The process involves collecting human and animal waste products such as kitchen
garbage and manure. This is then sealed into a barrel along with a certain amount of EM powder. The
microorganisms then turn the waste into mulch, which acts as a great source of nutrients for crops and
animals. Rice paddies that are treated with EM produce harvests that are much bigger than those of
conventional farms. Moreover, EM rice paddies require less tilling and weeding than other paddies.
Dr.Teruo Higa's ideas have caught on around the world. One of his biggest successes was in
North Korea, where his technology was used to create a record-breaking crop yield. EM helped many
crops, such as corn, Welsh onions and Chinese cabbages in North Korea. For the impoverished nation,
this was a godsend.
40. Why is Dr.Teruo Higa famous?
A. He is a professor of horticulture.
B. He created EM technology.C. He started making too much waste.
D. He is a great farmer.
41. Which of the following best describe microorganisms?
A. The smallest complete units of life.
B. Something that causes bad health.
C. Necessary for good health.
D. An unimportant part of farming.
42. What do microorganisms do in the EM process?
A. They destroy waste products.
B. They cause ill health.
C. They turn waste into a useful mulch.
D. They decrease the size of harvests.
43. What happened into North Korea?
A. It was a rich country.
B. They decided not to use EM technology.
C. Dr.Higa was not invited to the country.
D. EM technology led to a record-breaking harvest.
44. What does the underlined word"impoverished"mean in English?
A. Rich. B. Poor.
C. Far away D. Large.
【答案】40. B 41. A 42. C 43. D 44. B

There is no denying that students should learn something about how computers work, just as we
expect them at least to understand that the internal-combustion engine(内燃机)has something to do
with burning fuel, expanding gases and pistons(活塞)being driven. For people should have some
basic idea of how the things that they use do what they do. Further, students might be helped by a
course that considers the computer's impact on society. But that is not what is meant by computer
literacy.For computer literacy is not a form of literacy(读写能力); it is a trade skill that should not be
taught as a liberal art.
Learning how to use a computer and learning how to program one are two distinct activities. A
case might be made that the competent citizens of tomorrow should free themselves from their fear of
computers. But this is quite different from saying that all ought to know how to program one.Leave
that to people who have chosen programming as a career. While programming can be lots of fun, and
while our society needs some people who are experts at it, the same is true of auto repair and
violin-making.
Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult, and it gets easier all the time as programs
become more "user-friendly". Let us assume that in the future everyone is going to have to know how to use a computer to be a competent citizen. What does the phrase learning to use a computer mean? It
sounds like "learning to drive a car", that is, it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that, once
acquired, enable one to use a computer.
In fact,"learning to use a computer"is much more like"learning to play a game", but learning the
rules of one game may not help you play a second game,whose rules may not be the same.There is no
such a thing as teaching someone how to use a computer. One can only teach people to use this or that
program and generally that is easily accomplished.
45. To be the competent citizens of tomorrow, people should_____.
A. try to lay a solid foundation in computer science
B. be aware of how the things that they use do what they do
C. learn to use a computer by acquiring a certain set of skills
D. understand that programming a computer is more essential than repairing a car
46. In Para2 "auto repair" and “violin-making" are mentioned to show that_______.
A. programming a computer is as interesting as making a violin
B. people who can use a computer don't necessarily have to know computer programming
C. violin making requires as much skill as computer programming
D. our society needs experts in different fields
47. Learning to use a computer is getting easier all the time because______.
A. programs are designed to be convenient to users
B. programs are becoming less complicated
C. programming is becoming easier and easier
D. programs are becoming readily available to computer users
48. According to the author,the phrase "learning to use a computer" in Para.3 means learning_____.
A. a set of rules
B. the fundamentals of computer science
C. specific programs
D. general principles of programming
49. The author's purpose in writing this passage is______.
A. to stress the impact of the computer on society
B. to emphasize that computer programming is an interesting and challenging jobC. to illustrate the requirements for being competent citizens of tomorrow
D. to explain the concept of computer literacy
【答案】45. C 46. B 47. A 48. C 49. D
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。本文围绕学生应如何学习计算机,阐述计算机能力的概念。讲述学习如
何使用计算机和学习如何编程是两个不同的活动。学习如何使用计算机知识学习这个程序,
随着程序改进会变得越来越容易。
【45 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第 2 段的 A case might be made that the competent citizens of tomorrow should
free themselves from their fear of computers.提到未来有能力的人应该从恐惧中解脱出来,第 3 段
的 It sounds like" learning to drive a car", that is, it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that,
once acquired, enable one to use a computer.则提到学习计算机则就像是“学开车”一样,只要掌
握某套技能即可,故可知想要成为明天有能力的公民只需要通过掌握技能学习计算机即可,
而不必学习编程,故 C 正确。
【46 题详解】
推理判断题。在第 2 段中的 But this is quite different from saying that all ought to know how to
program one.,作者强调一般人只需学会使用计算机,而不必学会编程,最后 the same is true of
auto repair and violin-making.指出这与“汽车修理”和“小提琴制作”一样,可见作者提到“汽
车修理”(类似一般人使用计算机)和“小提琴创作”(类似于电脑专业人员编程)是为了说明
上文的观点:能使用计算机的人不必知道计算机编程,故 B 正确。
【47 题详解】
细节理解题。跟第 3 段首句 Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult, and it gets easier
all the time as programs become more "user-friendly".(学习如何使用计算机并不难,而且随着程序
变得更加“用户友好”,它会变得越来越容易”)可知,学习使用计算机越来越容易的原因是计
算机编程变得更 user-friendly, A 项中的 convenient to users 与此相符,故选 A。
【48 题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第 4 段的 In fact, "learning to use a computer" is much more like "learning to
play a game", but learning the rules of one game may not help you play a second game, whose rules
may not be the same.(事实上,“学会使用电脑”更像是“学会玩游戏”,但学习一个游戏的规则可能不会帮助你玩第二个规则可能不一样的游戏。)结合下文 One can only teach people to use
this or that program and generally that is easily accomplished.(一个人只能教人们使用这个或那个
程序,一般来说,这是很容易完成的。)可推断,教人学习使用计算机就是教人 use this or that
program,故 C 与此相符。故选 C。
【49 题详解】
推理判断题。本文围绕如何学习计算机,阐述计算机能力(computer literacy)的概念;它只是一
种技能,故 B 正确。A、C、D 均只是利用文中的片言只语拼凑而成的干扰项,不足以概括文
章大意。故选 D。
【点睛】推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上,做出一定的推理判断,从而得
到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话,也可能是
某几句话,所以,推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案:即对原文某
一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。例如小题 2,在第 2 段中的 But this is quite different
from saying that all ought to know how to program one.,作者强调一般人只需学会使用计算机,而
不必学会编程,最后 the same is true of auto repair and violin-making.指出这与“汽车修理”和“小
提琴制作”一样,可见作者提到“汽车修理”(类似一般人使用计算机)和“小提琴创作”(类
似于电脑专业人员编程)是为了说明上文的观点:能使用计算机的人不必知道计算机编程,故
B 正确。
D
An introduction to this book is as superfluous as a candle in front of a powerful searchlight. But
a convention of publishing seems to require that the candle should be there, and I am proud to be the
one to hold it. About ten years ago I picked up from the pile of new books on my desk a copy of Sons
and Lovers by a man of whom I had never heard, and I started to race through it with the immoral
speed of the professional reviewer. But after a page or two I found myself reading, really reading. Here
was—here is—a masterpiece in which every sentence counts, a book packed with significant thought
and beautiful, arresting phrases, the work of a remarkable genius whose gifts are more richly various
than those of any other young English novelist.
To appreciate the rich variety of Mr. Lawrence we must read his later novels and his volumes of
poetry. But Sons and Lovers reveals the range of his power. Here are combined and blended(混合的)
sort of “realism” and almost lyric(抒情的) imagery and rhythm. The speech of the people is that of
daily life and the things that happen to them are normal adventures and accidents; they fall in love, marry, work, fail, succeed, and die. But of their deeper emotions and of the relations of these little
human beings to the earth and to the stars, Mr. Lawrence makes something near to poetry and prose(散
文) without violating its proper “other harmony.”
Take the marvellous paragraph on next to the last page of Sons and Lovers (Mr. Lawrence
depends so little on plot in the ordinary sense of the word that it is perfectly fair to read the end of his
book first):
Where was he? One tiny upright speck of flesh, less than an ear of wheat lost in the field. He
could not bear it. On every side the immense dark silence seemed pressing him, so tiny a spark, into
extinction, and yet, almost nothing, he could not be extinct. Night, in which everything was lost, went
reaching out, beyond stars and sun, stars and sun, a few bright grains, went spinning round for terror,
and holding each other in embrace, there in the darkness that outpassed them all, and left them tiny and
daunted(气馁). So much, and himself, infinitesimal, at the core a nothingness, and yet not nothing.
Such glorious writing lifts the book far above a novel which is merely a story. I beg the reader to
attend to every line of it and not to miss a single one of the many sentences that await and surprise you.
Some are enthusiastic and impressive, like the paragraph above; others are keen, “realistic”
observations of things and people. In one of his books Mr. Lawrence makes a character say, or think,
that life is “mixed.” That indicates his philosophy and his method. He blends the accurately literal and
trivial(琐碎的) with the extremely poetic.
To find a similar blending of tiny daily detail and wide imaginative vision, we must go back to
two older novelists, Hardy and Meredith. I do not mean that Mr. Lawrence derives(源于) immediately
from them or, indeed, that he is clearly the disciple(弟子) of any master. I do feel simply that he is of
the elder stature(名望) of Hardy and Meredith, and I know of no other young novelist who is quite
worthy of their company. When I first tried to express this comparison, this connection, I was
contradicted by a fellow-critic, who pointed out that Meredith and Hardy are entirely unlike each other
and that therefore Mr. Lawrence cannot resemble both. To be sure, nothing is more hateful than forced
comparisons, nothing more boring than to discover parallels between one work of art and another. An
artist’s mastery consists in his difference from other masters. But to refer a young man of genius to an
older one, at the same time pronouncing his independence and originality, is a fair, if not very superior,
method of praising him.
50 The underlined word “superfluous” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _______.A. meaningful B. unnecessary
C. fundamental D. unbelievable
51. What is typical of Lawrence’s works?
A. They equally reveal his genius power.
B. They contain lots of great lyric poetry.
C. They present some real living situations.
D. They focus on relations between humans.
52. What does the author want to illustrate by including one paragraph from Sons and Lovers?
A. The plot of the novel has little to do with daily life.
B. It is wise to read Lawrence’s books from the end.
C. Lawrence is capable of telling good stories.
D. The language in Lawrence’s books is elegant.
53. Who were Hardy and Meredith?
A. They taught Lawrence literature when he was young.
B. They were the realistic novelists of Lawrence’s time.
C. They were novelists who resemble each other in writing.
D. They were novelists combining details with imagination.
54. According to the author, what does an artist’s mastery mean?
A. He must have personal diversity.
B. He must have the critical spirits.
C. He must be happy to be compared.
D. He must be a man of genius.
55. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To introduce Lawrence’s novel Sons and Lovers.
B. To show his experiences of reading classics.
C. To analyze Lawrence’s writing characteristics.
D. To compare the styles of different novelists.

不破坏诗歌和散文的和谐的前提下,使其更接近诗歌和散文,内容还展示了一些真实的生活
场景,同时作者还指出一个艺术家的才能在于具有个人的多样性。
【50 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“as a candle in front of a powerful searchlight.”可知,一本书的序
言就像强光探照灯前的蜡烛一样多余,由此可知画线词词义为“没必要的”,故B 项正确。
【51 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The speech of the people is that of daily life and the things that
happen to them are normal adventures and accidents”可知,劳伦斯作品中人物的语言是日常生活
用语,发生在她们身上的也都是日常生活中的经历,也就是展示了一些真实的生活场景,故 C
项正确。
【52 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Mr. Lawrence makes something near to poetry and prose(散文)
without violating its proper “other harmony.””可知,劳伦斯在不破坏诗歌和散文的和谐的前提下,
使他的作品更接近诗歌和散文,语言很优美,作者举《儿子和爱人》中的一段为例就是为了
证明这一点,故 D 项正确。
【53 题详解】
推 理 判 断 题 。 根 据 最 后 一 段 中 的 “To find a similar blending of tiny daily detail and wide
imaginative vision, we must go back to two older novelists, Hardy and Meredith.”可知,为了找到将
生活中的细节和想象结合起来的作品,我们必须求助于两位更年长的小说家 Hardy 和 Meredith,
由此可知他俩都是将生活中的细节和想象结合起来的小说家,故 D 项正确。
【54 题详解】
细 节 理 解 题 。 根 据 最 后 一 段 中 的 “An artist’s mastery consists in his difference from other
masters.”可知,作者认为一个艺术家的才能在于他必须与其他的大师的不同,也就是具有个
人的多样性,故 A 项正确。
【55 题详解】
作者意图题。通读全文可知,这篇文章以劳伦斯的作品《儿子和爱人》为例介绍了劳伦斯的
作品的特点——在不破坏诗歌和散文的和谐的前提下,使其更接近诗歌和散文,内容还展示
了一些真实的生活场景,故 C 项正确。
【点睛】作者意图题的难度较大,需要根据文章主旨来把握作者意图,例如本篇第 6 题,通读全文可知,这篇文章以劳伦斯的作品《儿子和爱人》为例介绍了劳伦斯的作品的特点——
在不破坏诗歌和散文的和谐的前提下,使其更接近诗歌和散文,同时他的作品还展示了一些
真实的生活场景。

children with burn sears a week of relief."They have a lot of emotional things that they go
through,trying to fit back in with society with their scars,"said Becky Mundy.burn center education
coordinator at Akron Children's Hospital.

and is funded by an organization named Aluminum Cans for Burned Children which raises money for
burn survivors and their families.
The Thursday of the camp week is Fire Truck Day,when dozens of local fire trucks arrive, along
with camp alumni(校友),doctors and nurses,and family members.Campers get to see fire vehicles
up close and interact with the firefighters.
Sometimes,they are the very ones who rescued the campers,months or years earlier.It is,they
say,a bond that never goes away.But Fire Truck Day contributes in another way,allowing them to see
each other in a different light.

girl out of a burning house in which her parents perished,and later the girl was adopted by a kind
family.
On Fire Truck Day,Pazdernik got to see the girl he saved,Shaniya Simpson.She shared a hug with
the firefighters who had rescued her.and said it was good to see them.
