S. relations, although they have experienced twists and turns in the past, ‎ ‎ _____have moved forward. ‎ ‎ A. in return B. in turn C. on the whole D. on the other hand ‎4.【解析】选C。考查介词短语辨析。句意为：中美关系虽然历经波折, 但总的来说还是向前发展的。in return作为回报; in turn轮流, 反过来; on the whole总的来说, 总而言之; on the other hand另一方面。根据语境用on the whole。‎ ‎5.Some experts are warning that the step the US government has taken to deal with the current ‎ ‎ crisis is _______of much risk. ‎ ‎ A. ones B. one C. that D. Those ‎5.【解析】选B。考查代词的用法。此处不定代词one代指one step。句意：一些专家警告说美国政府处理当前危机的措施是一项很危险的措施。‎ ‎6.The church tower which will be open to tourists soon. The work is almost finished.‎ ‎ A. has restored B. has been restored ‎ ‎ C. is restoring D. is being restored ‎6.【解析】选D。句意为：正在被修建的教堂塔楼很快将会向游客开放，这项工程即将竣工。表示现在正在进行的动作而且谓语动词与前面的主语间是被动关系，所以应用现在进行时的被动语态，应选D。另外，还可以用排除法，由The work is almost finished可以排除A、B两项，而C项语态不正确。‎ ‎7.This coastal area a national wildlife reserve last year.‎ ‎ A. was named　　B. named　　C. is named　　D. Names ‎7.【解析】选A。句意为：去年，该海岸区被命名为国家野生动物保护区。该句表被动关系，故排除B、D两项。由时间状语last year可知该用一般过去时，应选A。‎ ‎8.—Were you surprised by the ending of the film?‎ ‎ —No, I ____the book, so I already knew the story.‎ ‎ A. was reading B. had read C. am reading D. have read ‎ ‎8【解析】选B。句意：—你对电影的结尾感到吃惊吗？—不，我读过这本书，所以我已经知道这个故事了。根据句意，“吃惊”就是过去的动作，而“读书”应是过去的过去，故用过去完成时。‎ ‎9—I've not finished with my dinner yet.‎ ‎ —But our friends for us.‎ ‎ A. will wait B. wait C. have waited D. are waiting ‎9【解析】选D。句意：“我还没有吃完饭哪。”“但是我们的朋友在等我们。”由语境可wait这个动作正在进行，所以要用现在进行时。‎ ‎10 —I'm sorry, but I don't quite follow you. Did you say you want to return on September 20?‎ ‎ —Sorry, I myself clear. We want to return on October 20.‎ ‎ A. hadn't made B. wouldn't make ‎ C. don't make D. haven't made 10. ‎【解析】选D。句意：“对不起，我不太理解你的话。你是说你想九月二十号回来吗？”“对不起，我没有表达清楚。我想十月二十号回来。”由语境可知第二个人表示歉意的时候，他还没有让对方明白他的意思，所以要用现在完成时，表示对现在造成的影响和结果，应选D项。‎ ‎11.The discovery of gold in Australia led thousands to believe that a fortune_________‎ ‎ A. is made B. would make ‎ C. was to be made D. had made ‎11.【解析】选C。根据句中的谓语动词led可知此句表达的事情与过去有关，故首先排除A。make a fortune表示“发财”，由此可知从句中的主语a fortune与make之间应是被动关系，应选C项。was/were to be done属于过去将来被动的一种形式。‎ ‎12.Joseph ______to evening classes since last month, but he still can’t say “What’s your name?” ‎ ‎ in Russian.‎ ‎ A．has been going B．went C．goes D．has gone ‎12【解析】选A。句意：约瑟夫自从上个月就一直去夜校，可是他仍然不能用俄语说“你叫什么名字？从句意可知所表示的动作是从过去发生到现在一直进行着，而且还有可能继续下去，所以要用现在完成进行时，因此选择A项。另外可以使用排除法，题干中有since last year, 和since 连用时句子的谓语动词要用相应的完成时，故排除B、C两项。根据下文中的but 可知，这个动作还有可能继续下去，而D项只表示过去的事情对现在的影响，不表动作还会继续，故排除D项。‎ ‎13.I _______ all the cooking for my family, but recently I’ve been too busy to do it.‎ ‎ A．will do B．do C．am doing D．had done ‎13【解析】选B。句意：我为一家人做饭，但是最近我太忙不能做了。“我为一家人做饭”这个动作是经常性客观事实，所以用一般现在时态。而will do表示将来要做的动作；am doing 表示动作正在进行；had done 表过去的过去，但此处没有一个过去的时间或动作相比较，故只能选B。‎ ‎14.I have to see the doctor because I a lot lately. ‎ ‎ A. have been coughing B. had coughed ‎ C. coughed D. cough ‎14.【解析】选A。根据题干中的lately（= recently最近，近来）时间提示，应该选择与现在完成时相关的时态，所以选A。‎ ‎15.

Approaching B. Approached C. To approach D. To be approached ‎18.【解析】选A。句意为：靠近城市中心时，我们看见一座大约10米高的雕像。approach与其逻辑主语we是主动关系，且与动作saw几乎同时发生，应选A。由于approach与 we是主动关系，故排除B, D两项，而to approach表示目的，“为了接近”，与后句相矛盾，故排除C项。‎ ‎19. That is the only way we can imagine the overuse of water in students' bathrooms. A. reducing B. to reduce C. reduced D. Reduce ‎19.【解析】选B。句意为：那是我们能想出的减少学生浴室过度用水的唯一方式。to reduce the overuse of water作the only way的定语，we can imagine是个定语从句，也用来修饰the only way。‎ ‎20.A great number of students said they were forced to practise the piano. ‎ ‎ A. to question B. to be questioned C. questioned D. questioning ‎20.【解析】选C。句意为：大量的被询问的学生说他们是被迫练习钢琴。students与question存在被动关系，而且表示的动作也已完成，故用过去分词形式。选项B表示将来被动意味；选项D表示主动含义，均与语境不符。‎ 第二节：完形填空（共20小题；第小题1分，满分20分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最正确答案。‎ Throughout history man has had to accept the fact that all living things must die. But people now live longer than they 21 . Yet, all living things still show the 22 of aging, which will eventually 23 death.‎ Aging is not a disease, but as a person passes maturity (成熟期), the cells of the body and ‎ the 24 they form do not function as well as they 25 in childhood and teenage years. The body provides less 26 against disease and is more 27 to have accident.‎ A number of related causes may 28 aging. Some cells of the body have a fairly long life, but they are not 29 when they die. As a person ages, 30 of brain cells and muscle cells decreases. 31 body cells die and are replaced by new cells. In an aging person the 32 cells may not be as workable or as capable 33 growth as those of a young person.‎ Another 34 in aging may be changes within the cells 35 . Some of the protein chemicals in cells are known 36 with age and become less elastic (有弹性的). This is why the skin of old people wrinkles (皱纹) and 37 . This is also the reason why old people 38 in height. There may be other more important chemical changes in the cells. Some complex cell chemicals, such as DNA and RNA, store and 39 information that the cells need． Aging may affect this 40 and change the information-carrying molecules so that they do not transmit the information as well.‎ ‎21. A．would B．be used to C．used to D． used ‎22. A．function B．effect C．affect D． sign ‎23. A．lead in B．give in C．run into D． result in ‎24. A．hands B．feet C．heart D． organs ‎25. A．do B．has done C．did D． had done ‎26. A．energy B．protection C．vigor D． power ‎27. A．likely B．probable C．possible D． alike ‎28. A．attend to B．contribute to C．add to D． devote to ‎29. A．replaced B．reborn C．recovered D． surrendered ‎30. A．a number B．the amount C．the number D． a great deal ‎31. A．The others B．The other C．Another D． Other ‎32. A．old B．left C．new D． other ‎33. A．to B．for C．of D． in ‎34. A．factor B．effect C．reason D． element ‎35. A．for themselves B．of themselves C．themselves D． on their own ‎36. A．change B．to have changed C．to change D． to be changed ‎37. A．hangs loose B．hangs loosely C．is hanging loosely D． is hanging loose ‎38. A．increase B．shrink C．lengthen D． decrease ‎39. A．pass away B．pass by C．pass off D． pass on ‎40. A．improvement B．procession C．approach D． process ‎【答案解析】‎ ‎21.【解析】选 C。 根据句意：但是人们现在比过去寿命高。used to表示“过去经常做……”，暗示现在并不如此，此处指过去的情况，正好与句义相符。would可表示“过去经常”，但不含“今昔对比”之意。注意该词组与be used to的区别，后者意为“习惯于……”， to为介词。D项之所以不对，是因为在以下词组中，当不定式省略时，通常要保留不定式符号to，如：used to, be going to, mean to, ought to, try to, plan to等。‎ ‎22.【解析】选 B。根据下文中的定语从句所表示的意义进行判断，这里所填入的单词应该表示“衰老的结果”这一意义。effect意为“结果，影响”，正是此意。function“功能，机能，作用”；affect“影响，感动”，是动词；sign“标记”。解题时要注意effect和affect拼写只相差一个字母，但effect是名词而affect是动词。‎ ‎23.【解析】选 D。根据主句内容，which引导非限制性定语从句，which表示前面的“衰老的结果”，即：衰老的结果最终导致死亡。result in“使发生，导致”；lead in无此搭配，在表示“导致”时，应为lead to；give in “让步，屈服”；run into“陷入”，常指陷入困境。‎ ‎24.【解析】选 D。根据上下文及信息词cells可确定句中是指所有的部位(器官)。而其他三项所指的都是身体的具体部位。‎ ‎25.【解析】选 C。此句中的did是用来代替前面的动词function，以避免重复。因为这里有一个表示过去的时间状语in childhood and teenage years，所以只能用一般过去时。‎ ‎26. 【解析】选B。protection“保护，保护物”，和介词against或from连用，译为“保护……免遭……”。此句义为“身体此时的免疫力下降，易于患病”；energy“精力，活力”； vigor“力量，活力”；power“权力，力气”。‎ ‎27. 【解析】选A。 likely, possible和probable它们三者都表示“可能”，均可以构成：It is possible / probable / likely ＋that从句。但probable 和possible不能用于sb．is possible / probable to do sth.句型中。如：It will be possible / probable / likely for you to get there before eight o'clock.你有可能在8点钟之前赶到那里。 You will be likely to get there before 8 o'clock. 你很有可能在8点钟之前赶到那里。alike“相似的”，不符句意。‎ ‎28.【解析】选 B。 根据句义：有一些相关的原因可能促使人衰老。contribute ‎ to“有助于，起作用，促成”，此意义符合句义。attend to“专心于”；add to“增加，把……添加到……”；devote to“致力于，献身于”。这四个词组中的to都是介词，要注意它和不定式符号to的区别。‎ ‎29.【解析】选 A。此句与下文相对应，根据下文第十一空之后出现的replace (代替)可确定该空选replaced；reborn“新生的，复活的”；recovered“恢复”；surrendered “屈服”‎ ‎30.【解析】选 C。根据此句的谓语动词decreases可确定其主语应为the number，表示 “……的数量”，作主语时，应该使用单数的谓语动词；a number of“许多，大量”常用来修饰复数名词，做主语时，要使用复数谓语动词；the amount of“……的数量是”，常接不可数名词；a great deal of “大量的”，后接不可数名词。‎ ‎31.【解析】选 D。根据这一段里谈到的不同情况的细胞，上文用了some cells of the body不能再生，很显然下文中用other body cells可以被新的细胞所代替。这样other与上文的some相呼应。其他词都不能起此作用。‎ ‎32.【解析】选 C。 根据上文的意思，这里还在继续谈论第二种可再生细胞，即：the new cells。‎ ‎33.【解析】选 C。be capable of是固定搭配，表示“有……的能力”。句中指：老年人的新细胞的发展能力不如年轻人的强。其他介词不与capable搭配。‎ ‎34. 【解析】选A。 这一段的内容是和上段相对应的，所需词相当于上段第一句中的cause，指造成一种事实或现象的原因，所以选用factor，表“因素，要素”。其他几个词虽然语义相近，但所强调的重点并不相同。effect“结果”；reason“原因”，用来说明一种看法或行为的理由；element“元素”。‎ ‎35.【解析】选 C。此句意是：另一个导致衰老的因素是细胞内本身的变化。由此可得出，空格处需填一个作同位语的名词或代词，那么四个选项中，就只有themselves可担当此任，即：反身代词themselves做cells的同位语。‎ ‎36. 【解析】选C。本句是被动句式，其主动句式是：It is known that some of the protein chemicals in cells change with age and become less elastic。意为：大家知道细胞内有些蛋白质随着年龄的增大而改变，变得没有那么有弹性。又如：It is known that a new hospital will be built here. = A new hospital is known to be built here。在表达一般性事物时，动词know之后的不定式不用进行式和完成式。‎ ‎37.【解析】选 A。hang在这里是用作系动词，后面须接一个形容词作表语，类似的动词还有： rise，shine，sit，lie等，如：The sun rose red． (= The sun rose and it is ‎ red．)。本句除了要注意hang是系动词外，还要注意时态的选择。因为通篇文章所谈论的是人人都要变老的客观事实，所用时态都为一般现在时，不能用进行时。‎ ‎38. 【解析】选B。根据句义“这就是为什么老人的身高会收缩的原因”，因此表“收缩”的只有shrink；increase“增加”和1engthen“变长”与句义不符； decrease“减少”，一般强调量的减少，也不符合题义。特别说明的是shrink这个词平常用得不太多，但它仍然是中学英语“新课标”词汇，它的过去式形式是shrank或shrunk，过去分词形式是shrunk 或shrunken。‎ ‎39. 【解析】选D。根据上下文内容应选pass on，表示“把……传给另一个，转移”，句中store and pass on information指“储存和传递信息”，符合句意。其他三个选项都不符句意。pass away“去世”；pass by“经过，从……旁边走过”；pass off“逐渐消失，停止”。‎ ‎40. 【解析】选D。 从通篇文章所表达的人的衰老的过程分析，我们应该在此处选填process。表示“自然的过程，进程”，符合上下文意义；即：衰老可能影响这种进程和改变信息；improvement“改良”；procession“队伍，行列”；approach“方式，方法”。‎ ‎ 第二部分：阅读能力提高（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）‎ 阅读以下短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最正确选项。‎ A Although man has known asbestos for many hundreds of years, it was not until 160 years ago that it was mined for the first time on the North American continent. H. W. Johns, owner of a New York City Supply Shop for roofers, was responsible for(对…负责) the opening of that first mine.‎ Mr. Johns was given a piece of asbestos which had been found in Italy. He experimented with the material and then showed its surprising powers to his customers. After putting on a pair of asbestos gloves, which looked much like ordinary work gloves, he took red-hot coals from the fireplace and played with them in his hands. How astonished the customers were to discover that he was not burned at all. You can well imagine that he had increasing business in asbestos roofing materials. However, because it was very expensive to transport (carry) them from Italy to the United States, Mr. Johns sent out a young scientist to seek a source nearer home. This young man found great vein(岩脉), in the province of Quebec in Canada.‎ Ever since 1881 Quebec has led the world in the production of this unusual mineral, which is made up of magnesium, silicon, iron, and oxygen. When it is mined, the asbestos is heavy, just as you would expect a mineral to be. When it is separated, a strange thing happens; the rock breaks down into fine, soft, soapy fibres(纤维). ‎ Scientists do not know why the rock can be separated easily into threads(线), but they have found thousands of uses of this fireproof material, of the so-called “cloth of stone”.‎ ‎41. Which title best expresses the main idea of this passage?‎ A. Asbestos mined in Canada B. Fireproof matter C. A “wonder” mineral D. A new roofing material ‎42. Johns proved his ability as a salesman by_______.‎ A. going into roofing business B. carrying asbestos from Italy C. sending a trained scientist D. showing the use of asbestos gloves ‎43. Which is the most important character of asbestos that the author wants to show us? ‎ A. It is like thread. B. It feels soapy.‎ C. It burns easily. D. It is unusually heavy.‎ ‎44. The author’s main purpose in writing this passage was to _______.‎ A. show the need for more scientists B. compare asbestos with other minerals C. increase the sales of asbestos D. present facts about asbestosw..c.o.m ‎【答案解析】‎ ‎41.【解析】选C。主旨题。短文主要介绍了石棉的神奇作用。故C最正确。‎ ‎42.【解析】选 D。细节题。根据 After putting on a pair of asbestos gloves, …took red-hot coals from the fireplace and played with them in his hands 可推知，他是用当场演示的方法来推销他的产品的。故答案为D。‎ ‎43.【解析】选 A。推断题。根据When it is separated, a strange thing happens; the rock breaks down into fine, soft, soapy fibres(纤维)及 Scientists do not know why the rock can be separated easily into thread 可以断定答案为A。‎ ‎44.【解析】选 D。推断题。从短文中可以看出来作者写这篇文章只不过陈述事实而已。‎ B My father was a foreman of a sugar-cane plantation in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. My first job was to drive the oxen that ploughed the cane fields. I would walk behind an ox, guiding him with a broomstick. For $ 1 a day, I worked eight hours straight, with no food breaks.‎ It was very tedious work, but it prepared me for life and taught me many lasting lessons. Because the plantation owners were always watching us, I had to be on time every day and work as hard as I could. I’ve never been late for any job since. I also learned about being respectful and faithful to the people you work for. More important, I earned my pay; it never entered my mind to say I was sick just because I didn’t want to work.‎ I was only six years old, but I was doing a man’s job. Our family needed every dollar we could make because my father never earned more than $ 18 a week. Our home was a three-room wood shack with a dirty floor and no toilet. Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem(自尊心), one of the most important things a person can have.‎ When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our house. My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed, so the golfers could find them. Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never missed one. Some nights I would lie in bed and dreamt of making thousands of dollars by playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle.‎ The more I dreamed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb(番石榴树枝) and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth. I practiced with the same devotion and intensity. I learned working in the field — except now I was driving golf balls with club, not oxen with a broomstick.‎ ‎45. The writer’s first job was _______.‎ A. to stand down the fairway at a golf course ‎ B. to watch over the sugar-cane plantation C. to drive the oxen that ploughed the cane fields D. to spot the balls as they landed so the golfers could find them ‎46.

Having a family of eight people www.7caiedu.cn B. Owning his own golf course C. Bringing money back home to help the family D. Helping his father with the work on the plantation ‎49.

He was satisfied with the job he got on a plantation.‎ D. He wanted to make money by guiding oxen with a broomstick.‎ ‎【答案解析】‎ ‎45.【解析】选C。语义理解题。第 1 段第 2 句话My first job was to drive the oxen that ploughed the cane fields 和题干几乎完全相同。‎ ‎46. 【解析】选B。词义猜测题。从第 2 段第 2 句话中的I had to be on time every day and work as hard as I could 可以推知 tedious 的正确词义。‎ ‎47.【解析】选D。语义理解题。看到文章第 2 段第 4 句话 I also learned about being respectful and faithful to the people you work for，答案不言自明。‎ ‎48.【解析】选C。语义理解题。从文章第 3 段最后两句话 Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem (自尊心)… 不难肯定答案为C。‎ ‎49.【解析】选A。判断题。从最后一段内容不难看出他想当一名高尔夫球员的迫切之心。‎ C At the time, I would go out in the evening with my parents. But this time I had borrowed a bicycle from a friend of mine. I didn’t know why, but once I was on my own bicycle, a kind of free feeling flooded through me. The faster I rode, the faster I wanted to go! Far ahead, I rode as if my life depended on it, head down, hands grasping the handbars. I meant to get to Jinghai Bar as fast as I could...‎ Oh! My hands! Don’t come any closer... Don’t touch me! That poor doctor just couldn’t get my gloves off. Each time he took a step towards me, I broke into painful shouting. Much later, I　discovered that I had crashed(碰撞) heavily with another bicycle, and I hadn’t spoken one word of sense for at least three hours! After some time, my mother arrived at the hospital, her face as white as a sheet, and gave me a hug(拥抱), only then did the doctor begin to stitch(缝合) my head wound, not only did he merrily cut off a long lock of my hair, but used no anaesthetic(麻药) either! Later. I seemed to hear faraway voices saying that my right hand was broken. I almost burst into tears. How would I ever play the piano again?‎ ‎50.

The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks. There are relatively few words that we learn permanently(永久的)by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word lists. However, even those extra few are of value, and no one will make a mistake by working on developing a larger vocabulary. Here are some suggestions of how to do it. ‎ Read plenty of good books. When you come across a new word, or a new meaning of an old word, stop and see if you can understand it from its context. If you can't, and if you can manage without interrupting the thought of the book too much, look it up in a dictionary or ask somebody and then repeat its meaning to yourself a couple of times. If you are really conscientious(认真的), write the word and its meaning in a personal vocabulary list — preferably using it in a sentence, or you can keep a special vocabulary notebook. Go over the list from time to time. Further, try to use a new word in writing or conversation a few times over the next several days. ‎ Listen to good talks and be alert to new words you hear or to new meanings of words you already know. Then treat them just as you treat the new words you read. ‎ Learn and be alert to the parts of words: prefixes, suffixes and roots. Knowing them enables you to make intelligent guesses about the meaning of words. ‎ If you are studying a foreign language, be alert to words in that language which relate to words in English. English has inherited(继承) or borrowed much of its vocabulary of 500 000～600 000 words from Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and German. ‎ ‎54. When you meet a new word in reading, what should you do?‎ A. Guess its meaning. B. Ask somebody. ‎ C. Look it up in a dictionary. D. All of the above. ‎ ‎55.

The uniform direction of the collapsed columns and walls suggest an earthquake, Goddio said, but no fault lines have been found nearby. ‎ Other researchers believe a massive wave, caused by either an offshore earthquake or a distant underwater landslide, could explain the catastrophe. Still others think rising seas and a shift in the Nile River outlet doomed the cities. ‎ ‎“The argument, as you can see, continues,” Goddio said.‎ ‎58.
