根据空后 but I need to check it in the history textbook anyway.可知，因为要查阅下历史教科书，所以此处需用

动词 may 表示不确定的推测。

survey of the opinions of experts 中中心词是 survey 调查，抽象名词，不可数，故谓语动词用单数。下文，主
语是 three hours of outdoor exercise，中心词是 outdoor exercise，抽象名词，不可数，故谓语动词用单数。故
选 B。

人都睡得很香。第一空 wide 作副词时表示“张得(或开得)很大地”，表示空间宽度；widely 副词，表示“广
泛地”；句中不存在比较关系，故排除比较级wider；此处表示“眼睛睁的大”应用副词wide；第二空 sound
作副词时只可以用来指“酣睡着；安然入睡着”，而soundly 的意思是“健全地；充分地；彻底地；稳健地”
与语境不符，修饰形容词 asleep 应用副词 sound。综上，故选 D。

以 s 结尾的复数名词的所有格在词尾只加’， three hours（三小时）为以 s 结尾的复数名词，故所有格形式为
three hours’（三小时的）。其次根据句意 three hours’后应接名词，表示“三个小时的工作价值”，worth 作名

—Only when hard enough.
A. to press B. pressing C. pressed D. presses
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查省略句。句意：——他什么时候愿意借钱给别人？——只有当压力足够大的时候。分析句子
结构可知，此处是一个省略句，空处动词 press 与主语 he 之间是被动关系，且表示事实，所以原句谓语动
词需用一般现在时态的被动语态；由此可知，原句为 only when he is pressed，当从句的主语和主句一致，且含有 be 动词时，此时从句的主语和 be 动词可以省略，所以空处需用过去分词 pressed。故选 C。
14.—When will the visas be ready, sir?

请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
In today's fast paced，high stress world people are working longer hours than ever，and often exhaust themselves at
day's end in front of the television to relax enough to begin again in the morning. However，television watching，for
most people，does not really lower stress. Studies show that TV viewing more than an hour or so actually creates
stress and，especially in women，may lead to the blues. Most individuals are unaware that doing some exercise after
work makes them more energetic since it increases energy levels.
Wise use of free time does not mean getting an advanced degree，although the mental encouragement gained
through education is unbeatable in keeping your mind active. Learning new things nearly always adds a spark to your
daily life，especially if it is a favorite topic，such as sport，fashion，or art. Also，look through your bookstore or
library to find books on your interests. Try to replace a half hour TV watching with reading.
It is reported that in the United States recently，many individuals have as few as two good friends. Long work hours
and car commute act to separate people from each other. This separation is deadly. Find ways to meet people at the
end of the day and on weekends. Often this can be best done by combining activities，such as by joining a walking group to get both exercise and companionship. Taking a class will lift your spirits and allow you to meet others with
similar interests. Hobbies are great for reducing stress and provide another opportunity for social interaction.
Using your free time to aid your health may include these elements and many more，such as going to concerts and
spending time with family. Overall，the key is to spend less free time being passive. The best ways to use free time
are to be mentally and physically active，spend some time outdoors，and interact with other people on a regular
basis.
36. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Watching television may cause women to feel depressed.
B. Finding interests and hobbies in common means taking a class.
C. Going to concerts is the best way to make you mentally active.
D. Getting an advanced degree in education always lights up your life.
37. What does the underlined word “commute” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. The arrangement to work every day.
B. The journey to work every day.
C. The communication between people.
D. The separation between people.
38. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Live a Happy and Healthy Life
B. Relax Yourself in Various Ways
C. Spend Your Free Time Wisely
D. Interact With Others Outdoors
【答案】36. A 37. B 38. C
【解析】

especially in women, may lead to the blues．研究表明，看电视超过一个小时实际上会产生压力，尤其对女性来
说，可能会导致抑郁。可知，看电视太多会让女性变得压抑，故选 A。
【37 题详解】
词义猜测题。从第三段的句子 Long work hours and car commute act to separate people from each other．可知长时间工作和乘汽车上下班的路途让人们彼此分离，所以 commute 指 The journey to work every day(乘车上下
班)。故选 B。
【38 题详解】
主旨大意题。从全篇文章和第二段的句子 Wise use of free time does not mean getting an advanced degree,
although the mental encouragement gained through education is unbeatable in keeping your mind active.可知，这篇
文章主要讲的是如何明智的度过空余时间。故选 C
B
The computer keyboard helped kill shorthand—a system of rapid handwriting, and now it' s threatening to finish
off handwriting as a whole. When handwritten essays were introduced on the SAT exams for the class of 2011, just
15% of the most 1.5 million students wrote their answers in cursive (草写字母). The rest? Block letters.
And those college hopefuls are just the first edge of a wave of US students who no longer get much handwriting
instructions in the primary grades, frequently 10 minutes a day or less. As a result, more and more students struggle to
read and write cursive.
At Keene Mill Elementary School in Springfield, all their poems and stories are typed. Children in Fairfax
County schools are taught keyboarding beginning in kindergarten. Older students who never mastered handwriting
say it doesn't affect their grades.
There are those who say the culture is at a crossing, turning from the written word to the typed one. If
handwriting becomes a lost form of communication, does it matter?
It was at University of Virginia that researchers recently discovered a previously unknown poem by Robert,
written in his unique script. Handwritten documents are more valuable to researchers, historians say, because their
authenticity can be confirmed. Students also find them more fascinating.
The loss of handwriting also may be a cognitive opportunity missed. Several academic studies have found that
good handwriting skills at a young age can help children express their thoughts better-a lifelong benefit.
It doesn't take much to teach better handwriting skills. At some schools in Prince George' s County, elementary
school students use a program called Handwriting Without Tears for 15 minutes a day. They learn the correct
formation of manuscript letters through second grade, and cursive letters in third grade.
There are always going to be some kids who struggle with handwriting because of their particular neurological
wiring, learning issues or poor motor skills. Educators often point to this factor in support of keyboarding.
39. What is the author concerned about after 2011 SAT exams?
A. Keyboarding. B. Shorthand. C. Handwriting. D. Block letters.
40. A poem by Robert mentioned in the passage is used to _________.A. prove how valuable handwriting is B. explain what a famous poet he is
C. show how unique his poem is D. stress how fascinating the documents are
41. The example of Handwriting Without Tears helps to argue that_________.
A. the schools are responsible for the loss of handwriting
B. the loss of handwriting is a cognitive opportunity missed
C. it doesn't take much to teach better handwriting skills
D. the culture is turning from the written word to the typed one
42. According to the author, when is a perfect time to learn handwriting?
A. Kindergarten. B. Primary school. C. High school. D. College.
【答案】39. C 40. A 41. C 42. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章指出计算机键盘正威胁着整个书写体系 消亡，越来越多的学生难以读和写草写字
母。书法是很有价值的，年轻时的良好书写技能可以帮助孩子更好地表达他们的想法——这对他们一生都
有好处。同时想拥有更好的书写技能并不需要花费太多。
【39 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中 When handwritten essays were introduced on the SAT exams for the class of 2011,
just 15% of the most 1.5 million students wrote their answers in cursive (草写字母). The rest? Block letters.可知当
2011 年的 SAT 考试引入手写作文时，150 万学生中只有 15%用草书字母写答案。其余的人呢？印刷体。由
此可知，2011 年 SAT 考试结束后，作者关心的是书写。故选 C。
【40 题详解】
推 理 判 断 题 。 根 据 第 五 段 It was at University of Virginia that researchers recently discovered a previously
unknown poem by Robert, written in his unique script. Handwritten documents are more valuable to researchers,
historians say, because their authenticity can be confirmed. Students also find them more fascinating.可知在弗吉尼
亚大学，研究人员最近发现了一首 Robert 以前不为人知的诗，是用他独特的手稿写的。历史学家说，手写
文件对研究人员来说更有价值，因为它们的真实性可以被证实。学生们也发现它们更吸引人。由此可推知，
文章中提到 Robert 的一首诗是用来证明书法的价值的。故选 A。
【41 题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中 It doesn't take much to teach better handwriting skills. At some schools in Prince
George' s County, elementary school students use a program called Handwriting Without Tears for 15 minutes a day.
可知教更好的书写技巧并不需要花费太多。在乔治王子县的一些学校，小学生每天使用 15 分钟的
“Handwriting Without Tears”程序。由此可推知，Handwriting Without Tears 的例子有助于论证，教更好的
的书写技能并不需要花费太多。故选 C。
【42 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中 And those college hopefuls are just the first edge of a wave of US students who no
longer get much handwriting instructions in the primary grades, frequently 10 minutes a day or less.可知而这些有望
上大学的学生只是美国学生中的第一批，这些学生在小学阶段不再得到太多的手写指导，通常是每天 10 分
钟甚至更少。以及倒数第二段中 At some schools in Prince George' s County, elementary school students use a
program called Handwriting Without Tears for 15 minutes a day. They learn the correct formation of manuscript
letters through second grade, and cursive letters in third grade.可知在乔治王子县的一些学校，小学生每天使用
15 分钟的“Handwriting Without Tears”程序。他们从二年级开始学习手写字母的正确结构，三年级开始学
习草书字母的正确结构。由此可推知，文章中反复提到从小学阶段学生就开始练习书法，可推知作者认为，
小学是学习书法的最佳时间。故选 B。
C
“A good book for children should simply be a good book in its own right” says Mollie Hunter. Born and brought up
near Edinburgh，Mollie has devoted her talents to writing primarily for young people. She firmly believes that there
is and should always be a wider audience for any good book whatever its main market is. In Mollie’s opinion it is
necessary to make full use of language and she enjoys telling a story，which is what every writer should be doing.
“If you aren’t telling a story, you’re a very dead writer indeed.” She says. With the chief function of a writer being to
entertain，Mollie is indeed an entertainer. “I have this great love of not only the meaning of language but of the
music of language,” she says. “This love goes back to early childhood. I had a school teacher who used to ask us what
we would like to be when we grew up and，because my family always had dogs，and I was very good at handling
them，I said I wanted to work with dogs，and the teacher always said ‘Nonsense，Mollie；dear，you’ll be a
writer.’ So finally I thought that this woman must have something，since she was a good teacher and I decided
when I was nine that I would be a writer.”
This childhood intention is described in her novel，A Sound of Chariots，which although written in the third person
is clearly autobiographical (自传体的) and gives a picture both of Mollie’s ambition and her struggle towards its
achievement. Thoughts of her childhood inevitably (不可避免地) brought thoughts of the time when her home was
still a village with buttercup meadows and strawberry fields—sadly now covered with modern houses. “I was once
taken back to see it and I felt that somebody had lain dirty hands all over my childhood. I’ll never go back，”she said
“Never. When I set one of my books in Scotland” she said “I can recall my romantic feelings as a child playing in
those fields，or watching the village blacksmith at work. And that’s important because children now know so much
so early that romance can’t exist for them, as it did for us.”43. What does Mollie Hunter feel about the nature of a good book?
A. It should not aim at a narrow audience.
B. It should be attractive to young readers.
C It should be based on original ideas.
D. It should not include too much conversation.
44. In Mollie Hunter’s opinion，which of the following is one sign of a poor writer?
A. Being poor in life experience.
B. Being short of writing skills.
C. The weakness of description.
D. The absence of a story.
45. What do we learn about Mollie Hunter as a young child?
A. She didn’t expect to become a writer.
B. She didn’t enjoy writing stories.
C. She didn’t have any particular ambitions.
D. She didn’t respect her teacher’s views.
46. What’s the writer’s purpose in this text?

The Board Meeting had come to an end. Bob started to stand up and knocked into the table, spilling his coffee
over his notes. “How embarrassing! I am getting so clumsy in my old age.”
Everyone had a good laugh, and soon we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments. It came
around to Frank who sat quietly listening to the others. Someone said, “Come on, Frank. Tell us your most
embarrassing moment.”
Frank laughed and began to tell us of his childhood. “I grew up in San Pedro. My Dad was a fisherman, and he
loved the sea. He had his own boat, but it was hard making a living on the sea. He worked hard and would stay out
until he caught enough to feed the family. Not just enough for our family, but also for his Mom and Dad and the other
kids that were still at home.”
He looked at us and said, “I wish you could have met my Dad. He was a big man, and he was strong from pulling
the nets and fighting the seas for his catch. When you got close to him, he smelled like the ocean. He would wear his
old canvas, foul-weather coat and his bibbed overalls. His rain hat would be pulled down over his brow. No matter
how much my mother washed them, they would still smell of the sea and of fish.”
Frank’s voice dropped a bit. “When the weather was bad he would drive me to school. He had this old truck that
he used in his fishing business. That truck was older than he was. It would wheeze and rattle down the road. You
could hear it coming for blocks. As he would drive toward the school, I would shrink (畏缩) down into the seat
hoping to disappear. Half the time, he would slam to a stop and the old truck would belch (喷出) a cloud of smoke. He
would pull right up in front, and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would
lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here, I was
twelve years old, and my Dad would lean over and kiss me goodbye!”
He paused and then went on, “I remember the day I decided I was too old for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said,
“No, Dad.” It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way, and he had this surprised look on his face. I said,
“Dad, I’m too old for a goodbye kiss. I’m too old for any kind of kiss.” My Dad looked at me for the longest time, and
his eyes started to tear up. Then he turned and looked out the windshield. “ You’re right,” he said. “ You are a big
boy.... a man. I won’t kiss you anymore.”
Frank got a funny look on his face, and the tears began to well up in his eyes, as he spoke. “It wasn’t long after
that when my Dad went to sea and never came back. It was a day when most of the fleet (船队) stayed in, but not Dad.
He had a big family to feed. They found his boat adrift with its nets half in and half out. He must have gotten into a
strong wind and was trying to save the nets and the floats.”
I looked at Frank and saw that tears were running down his cheeks. Frank spoke again. “Guys, you don’t know
what I would give to have my Dad give me just one more kiss on the cheek…to feel his rough old face… to smell the
ocean on him… to feel his arm around my neck. I wish I had been a man then. If I had been a man, I would never have
told my Dad I was too old for a goodbye kiss.”

第四部分 任务型阅读(共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分)
请认真阅读下面短文，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：每个空格只填一个单词。
WARNING: Holding a cellphone against your ear or storing it in your pocket may be dangerous to your health.
This paraphrases (解释) a warning that cellphone manufacturers include in the small print that is often taken for
【granted when a new phone is purchased. Apple, for example, doesn’t want iPhones to come closer to you than 1.5
centimeters. Research In Motion, BlackBerry’s manufacturer, recommends 2.5 centimeters.
If health issues arise from cellphone use, the results are serious. Voice calls—Americans chat on cellphones 2.26
trillion minutes annually—bring in $109 billion for the wireless carriers.
Devra Davis, who has worked for the University of Pittsburgh, has published a book about cellphone radiation,
“Disconnect.” The book surveys scientific research and concludes the question is not settled.
Brain cancer is a concern that Ms. Davis examines. Over all, there has not been an increase in its incidence since
cellphones arrived. But the average covers an increase in brain cancer in the 20-to-29 age group and a drop for the
older population.
“Most cancers have multiple causes,” she says, but she points to laboratory research that suggests low-energy
radiation could damage cells that could possibly lead to cancer.
Children are more vulnerable (易受伤害的) to radiation than adults, Ms. Davis and other scientists point out.
Radiation that enters the brain of an adult only five centimeters will reach much deeper into the brains of children
because their skulls are thinner and their brains contain more absorptive fluid. No studies have yet been completed on
cellphone radiation and children, she says.
Henry Lai, a research professor in the bioengineering department at the University of Washington, began
laboratory radiation studies in 1980 and found that rats exposed to radiofrequency radiation had damaged DNA in
their brains.
Ms. Davis recommends using wired headsets or the phone’s speaker. Children should send text message rather
than call, she said, and pregnant women should keep phones away from the abdomen (腹部).

Regards,
Li Hua【答案】Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing to express my complaint about the service of Cloud Travel Agency.
A few days ago, I joined a three-day trip to Changbai Mountain with this travel agency. I found a few differences
between their ads and action.
They said they would provide a large air-conditioned bus, but in fact we only rode in a shabby bus without any
air-conditioner. Yes, they served us lunch, but the food tasted terrible, some even with sand. We didn’t enjoy any kind
of shower; we only bathed in cold water. As for sightseeing, the guides led us to several expensive souvenir shops,
which wasted us much time. As a result, two scenery spots were left unseen in the end.
We do hope something can be done to prevent such things happening again.
Regards,
Li Hua
