man saw what appeared to be a great 11 cloud following the car.When he stopped at a
village further on,he was told that a queen bee must be hidden in his car as there were thousands
of bees 12 .
On learning this,the man drove away as quickly as possible.After an hour’s 13 driving,he
arrived safely in London,where he parked his car outside a 14 and went in—It was not long
15 a customer who had seen him arrive 16 in to inform him that his car was 17
with bees.The poor driver was 18 that the best way should be to call a 19 .In a short
time the man arrived.He found the unwelcome passenger hidden near the wheels at the back of the

1.解析:由第一段最后一句可知,人与昆虫有极大“不同”。
答案:B
2.解析:“make every possible efforts”为固定短语。
答案:C
3.解析:由后文蜂后引来大批蜜蜂可知,后者自己常引起别人的注意。
答案:D
4.解析:由后文驾车者出现的麻烦事可知,此处形容词应填“unfortunate”。 unpleasant 意
为“不高兴的”,hopeless意为“无希望的”,均不符合上文意思。
答案:A
5.解析:leaving out“为忽略、遗漏”,如望文生义,则可能选择 B项。
答案:C
6.解析:四个选项均为方位,前、后、左、右。由 11题“following the car”可知,“a strange noise”
是由后面传来。
答案:B
7.解析:驾车人走出驾驶室来检查车轮。易错点:C项“test”强调测试。
答案:D
8.解析:驾车人停车检查后,没发现异样情况,故继续向伦敦驶去。

9.解析:由“Again”可知,“the noise”在他重新驾驶后再次发生。此题可用排除法。A项为“通
常的”,B项为“温柔的、轻轻的”与“became even louder”不符,C项为“实际的、实在的”均不
符合上下文。
答案:D
10.解析:奇怪的声音再次从后面传来,驾驶人“转过头”才能发现到底发生了什么,故选 B
项。注意:D项“raising his head”是抬头,由蜂群从后传来,驾车者抬头是发现不了情况的。
答案:B
11.解析:由本段最后“thousands of bees...”可知,发出声音的是蜂群。根据生活常识,成千上
万的蜜蜂在后面,是黑压压的一片像云团一样。
答案:A
12.解析:前文提及蜂后藏在车中,是因为有成千上万的蜜蜂在附近。易错项: D项 ,
如果未注意到“when he stopped...”这句,会以为蜜蜂在车后盘旋。实际上车停下后,蜜蜂应
前后左右围着车子飞。
答案:C
13.解析:前文提及驾车人尽可能快的开车,是惧怕紧随其后的蜂群,所以这一小时的驾驶
是非常艰辛的。易错项:A项,“boring”不能体现驾车者为逃避或甩开蜂群的担惊受怕的心
情。
答案:D
14.解析:由 15空后“a customer”可知,驾车者进入的不是博物馆、医院或学校。
答案:A
15.解析:“it was not long before...”此处表明蜂群随后飞来,速度极快。
答案:D
16.解析:由常识判断,他的车上有无数的蜜蜂在飞、停歇。故告知他这情况的人应该是很
急切的。选项 A、D意思不符合上下文,B项虽意思正确,但不能表现当时情况的紧急性。
答案:C
17.解析:驾车人下车进入宾馆,应是车窗关闭,故蜂群只可能密密麻麻的爬在车的表面上。
选项 A、C均表示某物体的内部“挤满”或“充满”,与常识不符。
答案:B
18.解析:此时此情,其他人“建议”车主请人帮助。B项为“要求”,C项为“命令”,D项为“请
求”,均不符合题意。
答案:A
19.解析:读完全篇,文中最后一句的 the bee keeper已提示了答案。

In some parts of the United States,farming is easy.But farming has always been difficult in
the northeastern corner of the country,which is called New England.
New England has many trees and thin,rocky soil(多石土壤).Anyone who has wanted to
start a new farm there has had to work very hard.The first job has been cutting down the trees.The
second job has been digging out the roots(根)of the trees.Then the farmer has had the difficult job
of removing(移走)stones from his land.This work of removing stones never really ends,because
every winter more stones appear.They come up through the thin soil from the rocks below.Farmers
have to keep removing stones from the fields.Even today,farms which have been worked on for
two hundred years still keep producing more stones.That is why stone walls are used instead of
fences in New England fields.The stone walls are not high and a man can easily climb over
them.However,they keep the farmer’s cows from joining those of his neighbours’.
判断下列句子正误:
56.The most difficult job for the farmers is digging out the roots of the trees.

LONDON(Reuters)—Organic fruit,delivered right to the doorstep.That is what Gabriel
Gold prefers,and he is willing to pay for it.If this is not possible, the 26 year old computer
technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food.
“Organic product is always better,”Gold said.“The food is free of pesticides(农药),and you
are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms.And more often than not that it is
locally(本地)grown and seasonal,so it is more tasty.” Gold is one of the growing number of
shoppers buying into the organic trend,and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like
him as they grow their organic food business.But how many shoppers really know what they are
getting,and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic product? Market research
shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their
preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete.For example,small amounts
of pesticides can be used on organic products.And about three quarters of organic food in Britain
is not local but imported(进口) to meet growing demand.“The demand for organic food is
increasing by about one third every year,so it is a very fast-growing market,”said Sue Flock,a
specialist in this line of business.
61.More and more people in Britain are buying organic food because .
A.they are getting richer
B.they can get the food anywhere
C.they consider the food free of pollution
D.they like home-grown fruit
62.Which of the following statements is true to the facts about most organic products sold in
Britain?
A.It grows indoors all year round.
B.It is produced outside Britain.
C.It is grown on family farms.
D.It is produced on large farms.
63.What is the meaning of “the organic trend” as the words are used in the text?
A.Growing interest in organic food.
B.Better quality of organic food.
C.Rising market for organic food.
D.Higher prices of organic food.
64.What is the best title for this news story?
A.Organic Food-Healthy,or Just for the Wealthy?
B.The Making of Organic Food in Britain
C.Organic Food-to Import or Not?
D.Good Qualities of Organic Food
61.解析:从 Gold 所说的话“Organic product is always better.The food is free of pesticides,and
you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms”可以判断出,人们喜欢 organic
food(绿色食物)是因为它们没有受到农药的污染。
答案:C
62.解析:第二段中“And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but
imported”说明英国的绿色食物大部分是进口的,即在英国的国外(outside Britain)生产的。
答案:B
63.解析:根据短文最后 Sue Flock 所说的话“The demand for organic food is increasing by
about one third every year,so it is a very fast-growing market”可以判断出,由于人们对 organic
food越来越感兴趣,使其需求越来越大。
答案:A
64.解析:人们越来越重视自己所吃的食物,由于绿色食品中不含有农药,所以越来越受到
人们的青睐。绿色食品的需求量每年以三分之一的速度上升,这使得绿色食品市场成为快速
增长的市场,销售人员由此获得大量财富。所以,“Organic food—Healthy,or Just for the
Wealthy?”是比较恰当的题目。
答案:A
C
Although more and more people are exercising regularly,experts note that eating right is also
a key to good health.Nutritionists recommend(推荐)the “food pyramid” for a simple guide to
eating the proper foods.At the base of the food pyramid are grains and fiber.You should eat six to
eleven servings of bread,cereal,rice,and paste every day.Next up the pyramid are vegetables and
fruits; five to nine daily servings from this group are recommended.The next pyramid level is the
dairy group.Two or three servings a day for milk,yogurt,or cheese help maintain good nutrition.
Moving up the pyramid,the next level is the meat,fish,beans,eggs,and nuts group,of which
everyone should eat only three servings a day.At the very top of the pyramid are fats,oils,and
sweets; these foods should be eaten only infrequently.
You don’t have to shop in health food stores to follow the guidelines.One easy way to plan
menus that follow the food pyramid is shop only in the outer aisles of the grocery store.In most
supermarkets,fresh fruits and vegetables,dairy,fresh meat and frozen foods are in the outer aisles
of the store.Grains, like paste, rice,bread, are located on the next aisles, the first inner
rows.Finally,the farthest inside of the store is where you’ll find chips and snacks,cookies and
pastries,soda pop and drink mixes.These are the kinds of foods that nutritionists say everyone
should eat rarely,if at all.If you stay in the outer aisles of the grocery store,you won’t be tempted
to buy foods you shouldn’t eat, and you will find a wide variety of healthy foods to choose
from.Another benefit of shopping this way is that grocery shopping takes less time.
65.A good title for this article would be .
A.How to Shop in a Health Food Store
B.How to Shop Efficiently
C.How to Shop for Healthy Food
D.How to Cook Healthy Food
66.According to the food pyramid,people should .
A.eat more grains than meat
B.never eat fats and sweets
C.mostly eat meat only with vegetables
D.rarely eat bread and other starches
67.According to the passage,on the inside aisles of the grocery store you will find .
A.cleaning products
B.dog and cat food
C.wine and beer
D.chips and snacks
68.In order to follow the main advice in the passage,it would be most helpful to know .
A.where to buy a copy of the “The Food Pyramid”
B.whether rice has more calories than paste
C.which supermarket the author is referring to
D.how much of each kind of food equals a serving
65.解析:从营养专家推荐饮食食谱到如何到商店购买健康食品(如蔬菜等)是本文的主线,
所以应选 C。
答案:C
66.解析:从第一段可看出,在营养专家推荐的食物金字塔中,人们应多吃蔬菜、谷类而应

chips and snacks”。这句话可清楚地告诉我们应选 D项。
答案:D
68.解析:文章虽多次提到“一日两(三)餐”,但并没有说明一餐的量究竟是多少,因为要
想按照营养专家的建议饮食的话,有必要搞清楚每餐的量。
答案:D

The world we live in gets more mechanized every year.Some countries which were mainly
agricultural a hundred years ago have now become industrial.New factories and towns have been
built on good agricultural land.There are now fewer farms to serve a much greater population,so
these farms must be more efficient in order to produce as much food as possible.There is no place
in the modern agricultural world for the inefficient farmer.Unfortunately,many of the picturesque
aspects of farming are disappearing in the search for efficiency.The more tractors are used, the
fewer horses are needed.Everyone agrees that horses are far more pleasant to look at than
tractors.But they are less efficient.Cows are usually milked by machinery nowadays,and even
pigs are fed automatically.There is not much art or poetry on the modern farm, and the old
traditional idea of a farm as a slow,peaceful,romantic place is totally wrong nowadays.
The modern farmer has to be a mechanic,a scientist,an accountant and a gambler.The more
mechanized farming becomes, the more expert the farmer has to be.He must understand what
machinery is necessary for his kind of farm,and he must know how to use it efficiently.He must
also understand the new technical advances in agriculture,and how to use chemical and synthetic
products to improve his crops.The more workers a farmer employs,the more he must know about
the problems of wages and taxes.As in any other industry,most modern farmers find it necessary
to employ office staff to deal with these.But although he has more modern equipments and far
more scientific aids than his grandfather had,the farmer is still dependent upon the weather.As he
can never be sure what the weather will do,he must be prepared to take risks, and face the
possibility of losing everything.
69.The underlined word “mechanic” means .
A.a skilled farmer
B.a skilled person in using and repairing
C.a worker
D.a driver
70.Why the idea of a farm as a slow,peaceful,romantic place is wrong nowadays?
A.Because nowadays,the world gets more mechanized.
B.Because cows are usually milked by machinery and pigs are fed automatically.
C.The fewer horses are needed.
D.No farm needs the inefficient farmer.
71.How to explain“The more mechanized farming becomes, the more expert the farmer has to
be”?
A.With the development of agriculture,it needs farmers to become a skilled man to operate
those agricultural machines.
B.With the development of agriculture,the farmer should be an accountant.
C.With the development of agriculture,the farmer should be mechanized.
D.With the development of agriculture,the farmer has to be a driver.
72.Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A.The weather is a very important factor in agriculture.
B.It’s necessary for modern farmers to have modern equipments.
C.The farmers don’t have to know about their wages and taxes today.
D.Nowadays,it’s necessary for farmers to use office staff.
69.解析:根据文章上下文,判断出 mechanic意为“有技术的人”。
答案:B
70.解析:从文章第一段第一句“The world we live in gets more mechanized every year”可知,
我们居住的世界已经更加机械化了,所以对于传统农场的概念已经过时了。
答案:A
71.解析:作者认为随着农业的发展,需要农民成为有技能的、能够操作农业机械的人。
答案:A
72.解析:从文章第二段“The more workers a farmer employs,the more must know about the

required.Office opens through Saturday nine to five.Welcome for an evening or Sunday

73.According to this advertisement,a one-bedroom flat would require a deposit of .
A.$195 B.$165 C.$135 D.$270
74.From this advertisement we can suppose .
A.cats and dogs are not permitted in the flats

D.gas and water bills are included in the rent
75.The advertisement suggests that persons who are interested in the flats must .

B.call for an appointment if they want to see the flats from nine to five Monday through
Saturday
C.see the flats before five o’clock during weekdays
D.call for an appointment if they want to see the flats on Sunday or in the evening
73.解析:根据文中“One bedroom at $135...per month”可知,一间卧室的月租金是$135,同时
广告中说明“One month’s deposit required.”,即需要一个月的租金作为定金,也就是$135。
答案:C
74.解析:因为广告中说明“Children and small animals welcome”,即可以带孩子和宠物,所以
选项A不对。同时广告中说明“New unfurnished”,而广告前的名词解释中说明“unfurnished adj.
A house of flat without any furniture”,即房间中没有家具,所以选项 B不对。对于位置,广
告中说明“one block from Indiana University”,所以 far away不对。从广告中的说明“Utilities
include electricity”以及广告前的生词解释“utilities n. any useful service for the public,such as
supplies of water,gas to the home”可知,水、电及煤气的费用全部包括在租金之内,所以选
项 D正确。
答案:D
75.解析:从广告中 “Office opens through Saturday nine to five.Welcome for an evening or
Sunday appointment”可知,星期六 9点到 5点,可随时拜访,每天晚上和星期天可提前预约。
答案:D

三峡大坝:The Three Gorges Dam
_
_
_
答案:
The Three Gorges Dam is being built in Hubei Province in China,which is to be completed
in 2010.It’s built for several reasons.
First, the Yangtze River floods large areas at the same time every year.The flood destroys
houses and crops,and some people even lose their lives.The new dam will control the waters of
the Yangtze River and tame some of the rivers’ deadliest floods.
second,when finished,the Three Gorges Dam will produce the energy of 15 nuclear power
plants.
But there are also some disadvantages.As a result of the dam,the water level of the new lake will
rise by about 100 meters,so that millions of people have to move from the place where they
are living.What’s more,the waters of the new lake will cover many places of interest in the
area of the Three Georges.Anyway,if we can control it,the advantages of it will out weigh its
disadvantages.
