5.—Does he work hard at his lessons?
—Yes, he ________ no effort, as far as I know.
A. wastes B. shares
C. spares D. makes
【答案】C
【解析】

6.One thing about child raising to be certain of _______ that the longer the child is with its mother, the ______.
A. being, good B. being, better
C. is, good D. is, better
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查表语从句和固定结构。句意:关于孩子抚养,有一点是肯定的,那就是孩子和妈妈在一起的时间越长越好。珍惜句子结构可知,本句是一个表语从句,第一空缺少系动词,应该填is,第二个空是“the+比较级,the+比较级”结构,表示“越……,越……。”应该填better,故D项正确。
【点睛】本题的难度在于第一个空,有的同学没有分清句子结构而认为应该用being作介词of的宾语,但通过分析句子结构可知,本句是一个表语从句,to be certain of修饰One thing about child raising,第一空缺少系动词。
7.—You've made great progress in your studies of English, haven't you?
—Yes, but much .
A. remains to do B. is remained to do
C. remains to be done D. is remained to be done

8.This photo of mine was taken ______ stood the famous Eastern Bright Pearl in Shanghai.
A. which B. in which
C. where D. there
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查地点状语从句。句意:这张照片是我在上海著名的东方明珠拍摄的。分析句子结构可知,此处是一个地点状语从句,表示“东方明珠坐落的地方”,应该用where来引导,故C项正确。
【点睛】同学们可以通过分析句子结构利用排除法解答,which和 in which引导定语从句,本句中没有先行词,所以首先排除,如果用there的话,两个分句之间没有连词,也没有意义上的联系,用where来引导这个地点状语从句,表示“东方明珠坐落的地方”。
9.The truth, Sir, is that the old man____ across the street when my car hit him.
A. was to walk B. had been walking
C. walked D. was walking
【答案】D
【解析】

C. are D. would
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查虚拟语气。句意:——Jenny看起来又热又干。——如果你发高烧的话,你也是这个样子。根据had判断此处表示与现在事实相反的假设,应该用would,故D项正确。
11.The old woman had a letter from her son in the army_____ to her.

13.After months of voyage, Columbus arrived in_____ later proved a new continent.
A. where B. what
C. which D. that
【答案】B
【解析】
试题分析:考查宾语从句。句意:经过几个月的航行,哥伦布到达了后来被认为是一个新大陆的地方。介词in后是一个宾语从句,在宾语从句中,where作地点状语;what作主语或宾语;which作定语;that引导名词性从句时没有意义。从句的proved前面缺少主语,用what引导宾语从句且在从句中作主语,故选B。
考点:考查宾语从句
14.As far as I'm concerned, education is about learning and the more you learn, ________.
A. the more for life are you equipped B. the more equipped for life you are

A. how they were excited B. how excited they were
C. how excited were they D. they were how excited
【答案】B
【解析】
试题分析:句意:你想象不出当他们收到这些好的圣诞礼物的时候他们是多么的高兴。Christmas presents圣诞礼物;when they received these nice Christmas presents.是时间状语从句。这里how引导的是感叹句,how +形容词+主语+谓语,excited是形容词,是被感叹的词,故选B。
考点:考查感叹句的用法。
16.The purpose of new technologies is to make life easier, ______ it more difficult.
A. not make B. not to make
C. not making D. do not make
【答案】B
【解析】
考查不定式作表语。句意:新技术的目的是使生活更容易,不是使生活更难。根据语义后面的结构应与to make life easier结构一样,否定式应在to前面加not,故选B。
17.He came to my class every week, but his attitude ______ that he was not really interested.
A. expressed B. described
C. explained D. suggested
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查动词词义辨析。A. expressed表达;B. described描述;C. explained解释;D. suggested表明。句意:他每周都来上我的课,但他的态度表明他并不是真的感兴趣。根据句意可知此处表示“表明”,故D项正确。
18.Every year, a great many visitors come to visit the temple ______ the 12th century, ______ has brought a large income.
A. dating from; which B. dated from; which
C. which dates from; that D. which dated from; which
【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析:考查现在分词做定语和非限制性定语从句:第一空是定语,修饰the temple,因为date from“追溯到”这个词组只能用一般现在时和主动,所以要么用现在分词做定语,要么可以用定语从句which dates from,第二空是非限制性定语从句,不能用that引导,用which,句意:每年有很多游客来参观这个追溯到12世纪的庙,这已经带来很大收入了。选A。
考点:考查分词做定语和非限制性定语从句
点评:当分词做定语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与名词构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做定语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做定语。单独的一个分词做定语要放在名词的前面,分词短语做定语要放在分词的后面。在非限定性定语从句的前面往往有逗号隔开,如若将非限定性定语从句放在句子中间,起前后都需要用逗号隔开。需要注意 which引导的非限定性定语从句是用来说明前面整个句子的情况或主句的某一部分。 在非限定性定语从句中,关系词不能用that。
19.—How many students do you think will be present at the meeting?
—I expect ______ 20 students at the meeting.
A. there being B. there to be
C. there be D. there been
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查expect的用法和there be 句型。句意:——你认为会有多少学生出席这个会议?——我预计会有20个学生。expect to do表示“期待去做”,所以后面的there be 句型用不定式结构,故B项正确。
20.______other good students, the teacher thinks Hank is ______ student.
A. Compared with; a most satisfied B. Compared to; the most satisfied
C. Comparing to; the more satisfying D. Compared with; a more satisfying
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语和形容词词义辨析。句意:与其他的好学生相比,老师认为Hank是一个更令人满意的学生。Compare with表示“与……相比”,Compare to表示“把……比作”,所以第一空用Compared
with;satisfied表示“感到满意的”,satisfying表示“令人满意的”,根据句意可知第二空表示“一个更令人满意的”,所以第二空用a more satisfying,故D项正确。

People always think men are more skilled than women in driving. Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men.
In a survey done by insurer MetLife, 51% of women said they drive more safely. The evidence is on their side: Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving. “Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding(手法的) drivers, which leads to fewer accidents,” the report says. However, not all male drivers share the same opinion. Of the men surveyed by MetLife, 39% claimed male drivers were safer. The findings did back them up on one point: automotive knowledge. The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control, which helps prevent rollover accidents.
Auto safety unavoidably matters to money. Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men. A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states. Among individual states, women get the greatest advantage in Wyoming(where they pay 20% less), South Dakota and Washington, D.C., where their insurance costs are 16% lower.
“More than 11,9000 male drivers died in U.S. traffic accident in 2009, compared with just under 4,900 women drivers,” according to the study. “Based on miles traveled, men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled, vs. 1.7 deaths for women.”
24. According to the study, male drivers __________.
A. are less aggressive while driving
B. are more skilled at auto knowledge
C. are more likely to stick to driving laws
D. are less familiar with safety equipment
25. Insurance companies focus on female driver clients(客户) probably because they __________.
A. cause more accidents on the road but ask for little
B. cause little damage and pay more money to the insurance companies
C. are more careful drivers and cause less damage
D. make up the most part of the insurance clients
26. We can infer from the passage that __________.
A. men are 3.1 times more likely to get tickets than women
B. all women in the USA pay the same for their auto insurance
C. more female drivers die every year than male drivers
D. women are generally safer drivers than the opposite sex
27. The writer mainly develops paragraphs by __________.
A. giving examples B. making comparisons
C. drawing a conclusion D. presenting an argument
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. D 27. B
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了通过问卷调查的方式比较男性和女性谁开车更安全,结果发现女性司机比男性司机开车更安全,事故更少。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The findings did back them up on one point: automotive knowledge”可知,调查发现男性司机的汽车知识更好,故B项正确。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men.”可知,女性司机比男性司机付的汽车保险费用更低,再结合最后一段的事故数据可推知,保险公司专注于女性司机是因为她们比男性司机更谨慎,车损更少,故C项正确。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章内容,特别是最后一段的事故数据可知,女性司机比男性司机开车更安全,事故更少,故D项正确。
【27题详解】
写作手法题。通读全文可知,文章每段都对男性司机和女性司机作比较的角度来看,例如女性司机比男性司机付的汽车保险费用更低,事故更少,所以文章是通过作比较展开的,故B项正确。
C
Modern day robots may not be as entertaining as R2D2 or the robot from Lost in Space, but robots are very important to space exploration and are being used in a variety of different ways
for several important reasons.
Robots make great explorers on planets, moons, and other landing areas. Aside from the earth, just about every surface in the solar system is unsafe for humans to explore. The air on most other planets is insufficient fortunate for humans to explore. The air on most other planets is insufficient for humans to breathe, making it necessary to wear a space suit and oxygen equipment. The temperatures on these surfaces are much too hot or much too cold for any humans to withstand. Plus there would be complications with radiation, weather, and a lack of gravity. Robots have much less limitation in these areas and can survive much longer under these conditions.
Robots are designed for collecting scientific data. Robots are also able to perform many tasks at one time and can process information much quicker and more efficiently. Important scientific projects from detecting minerals, analyzing ground samples, to finding water are all performed much quicker and accurately by robots.
The use of robots has made the cost of space exploration much less expensive than it would cost for humans to do the work. In order to successfully send humans into space we would need to build a vehicle that can not only carry humans, but also enough | food and water to keep them alive for the duration of the trip. Moreover, robots have no problems working for hours on end. Robots never complain, they don’t require food or water, and they never need a bathroom break.
Over the past 30 years or so there have been many different types of robots used successfully in the exploration of space. Perhaps the most famous and successful robots are Spirit and Opportunity who have both been exploring the surface of Mars. They have both been very successful with experiments on soil and rocks and have even found evidence of water in Mars’ history.
28. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Development of Robots B. The Discovery of Space Exploration
C. No Robots, No Space Exploration D. Robots Are Used in Space Exploration
29. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. The use of robots in space exploration costs more than the use of humans.
B. It is dangerous for. humans to explore other surfaces in the solar system except the earth.
C. Both Spirit and Opportunity have found the evidence of water on Mars.
D. Many different types of robots have explored the space successfully.
30. The underlined word “withstand” in paragraph 2 most probably means “______”
A. remain B. bear
C. defeat D. develop
31. What is the writer’s attitude in this passage?
A. Negative. B. Persuasive.
C. Subjective. D. Objective.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了机器人对太空探索非常重要,机器人正用于太空探索。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“but robots are very important to space exploration and are being used in a variety of different ways for several important reasons.”可知,本文主要介绍了机器人正用于太空探索,故D项正确。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“The use of robots has made the cost of space exploration much less expensive than it would cost for humans to do the work.”可知,用机器人进行太空探索比人类从事这项工作花费更少,故A项正确。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“The temperatures on these surfaces are much too hot or much too cold for any humans to”可知,温度太高或太低,人类无法忍受,由此可知画线词词义为“忍受”,故B项正确。
【31题详解】
观点态度题。纵观全文可知,作者只是客观地介绍了机器人在太空探索中的应用,并没有带任何感情色彩,故D项正确。
【点睛】科普说明文的词义猜测题难度较大,对画线词所在句的理解是关键,要紧紧抓住画线词前后的词语,例如本篇第3题,根据画线词前的“too hot or much too cold”可知,当温度太高或太低时,人类无法忍受,由此可知画线词词义为“忍受”。
D
How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments -mostly for entertainment purposes - is fair and respectful? Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats.
Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their
natural homes. Zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species, but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range.
The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs. The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.
Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats, Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?
Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.
32. How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos?
A. Dangerous. B. Unhappy.
C. Natural. D. Easy.
33. In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.
A. remain in cages B. behave strangely
C. attack other animals D. enjoy moving around
34. What does the author try to argue in the passage?
A. Zoos are not worth the public support.
B. Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.
C. Zoos should treat animals as human beings.
D. Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.
35. The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.
A. pointing out the faults in what zoos do
B. using evidence he has collected at zoos
C. questioning the way animals are protected
D. discussing the advantages of natural habitats
【答案】32. B 33. B 34. A 35. A

E.
Last week the British university system offered a record number of places. That sounds like good news—but do we really need more people to go to university? For that matter, does the world need more universities?
The answer feels like it should be yes.
Education is good, is it not? But everything has a cost.
Education takes time. We could insist that everyone study full-time until the age of 45 but that would surely be too much. And perhaps half the population studying until they’re 21 is also too much. As for universities, they consume financial and intellectual resources—perhaps those resources might be better spent elsewhere.
My own personal opinion is strongly in favor both of going to university, and of simply having universities around.
The main skill I learnt at university was to write about economics, and I use that skill every day of my professional life, even an abstract education seems practical to me. And I now live in Oxford, one of the world’s most celebrated (著名的) university cities. Oxford’s experience certainly suggests that universities have much to offer.
The city’s architecture and green spaces have been shaped—greatly for the better, on balance —by the 900-year-old institution at its heart. The beauty attracts tourists and locals too.
But these are samples of one. Many people do not find themselves using the skills and knowledge they accumulated at university. And Oxford’s dreaming spires (尖顶) aren’t terribly representative of global universities as a whole.
36. Which of the following is the most proper title?
A. Does the world need more universities?
B. Is education really necessary?
C. Is British university system the best?
D. Do you prefer universities abroad?
37. Which of the following about the writer is TRUE?
A. He is an economist now.
B. He likes Oxford’s architecture and green spaces most.
C. The skill he learnt at university is practical in his career.
D. He holds the view that going to univeristy is a waste of resources.
38. The writer develops the passage by ______.
A. comparing his experience with others’
B. persuading us with his own experience and opinion
C. describing and sharing his own university experience
D. informing us of the advantages of universities
39. What’s the meaning of the word “consume” in Paragraph 4?
A. use B. provide
C. delight D. raise
40. In the following part, the writer is likely to ______.
A. list more supporting details about his opinion
B. show more disadvantages about going to universities
C. present some opposite opinions about universities
D. draw a conclusion about the topic
【答案】36. A 37. C 38. B 39. A 40. C

本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者结合自己的经历告诉我们虽然教育是好事,但是大学占用太多的财政和智力资源,而且很多人在大学学到的技能并没有得到运用,世界不需要更多的大学了。
【36题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“For that matter, does the world need more universities?”可知,本文主要介绍了世界不需要更多的大学了,故A项正确。
【37题详解】
细节题。根据倒数第二段中的“The main skill I learnt at university was to write about economics, and I use that skill every day of my professional life, even an abstract education seems practical to me.”可知,作者在大学学到的技能在工作中每天都能用到,故C项正确。
【38题详解】
写作手法题。根据文章内容,特别是倒数第二、三段作者的观点和经历可知,作者用自己的观点和切身经历告诉我们世界不需要更多的大学了,故B项正确。
【39题详解】
词义猜测题。上文说凡事都有代价,再结合画线词后的“financial and intellectual resources”可知,大学占用大量财政和智力资源,由此可知画线词词义为“占用、使用”,故A项正确。
【40题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“And Oxford’s dreaming spires aren’t terribly representative of global universities as a whole.”可知,牛津大学的梦幻尖顶不能代表全球大学的整体水平,接下来作者将举例证明这一点,即对大学提出一些反对意见,故C项正确。
【点睛】阅读理解中的主旨大意题难度很大,需要紧紧抓住文章的主题句,主题句通常在文章的首段或尾段,例如本篇第1题,根据第一段中的“For that matter, does the world need more universities?”可知,本文主要介绍了世界还需要更多的大学么?下文都是围绕这个话题展开。

第II卷
注意:将答案写在答题卷上。写在本试卷上无效。
Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?
In 1969,the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River Cleveland, Ohio. It___66___(be) unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up. The river was so polluted that it___67___(actual) caught fire and burned. Now, years later, this river is one of____68____most outstanding(杰出的)examples of environmental cleanup.
But the river wasn’t changed in a few days____69____even a few months. It took years of work ____70____(reduce) the industrial pollution and clean the water. Finally, that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is____71____(clean) than ever.
Maybe you are facing an impossible situation. Maybe you leave a habit____72____is driving your family crazy. Possibly you drink too much or don’t know how to control your credit card use. When you face such an impossible situation, don’t you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?
While there are____73____(amaze) stories of instant transformation, for most of us the____74____(change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work, like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be ____75____(patience).
【答案】66. was
67. actually
68. the 69. or
70. to reduce
71. cleaner
72. that/which
73. amazing
74. changes
75. patient
【解析】
试题分析:你正面临着一个看起来不可能解决的情况吗?
【66题详解】
was 根据本段第一句In 1969,the pollution was terrible可知本段叙述的是过去发生的事情。the Cuyahoga River Cleveland在过去被污染地如此地严重,过去没有人能够想象倒这条河被清理干净。故填was。
【67题详解】
actually 本句中使用副词actually做状语修饰谓语动词caught fire,actual是形容词,不能在句中做状语,通常只做定语或者表语修饰名词。
【68题详解】
the 本句横线后面的most是最高级的形式,所以使用the most outstanding的形式。
【69题详解】
or但是这条河流的改变不是几天或者几个月的事情。本句中的or“或者”表示选择的意思。
【70题详解】
to reduce 考查固定句式:It takes sb some time to do sth做某事花了某人…时间;句中的不定式to reduce he industrial pollution and clean the water是句子真正的主语。前面的it是形式主语。
【71题详解】
cleaner句意:最后人们的努力得到了回报,现在这条河比以前更干净了。横线后面有than,说明横线上应该使用比较级的形式。
【72题详解】
that/which 本句是一个定语从句,先行词是a habit,定语从句中使用关系动词that/which指代先行词在句做主语。
【73题详解】
amazing现在分词转换的形容词常常修饰事物,过去分词转换的形容词常常修饰人或者与人有关的事物。横线后面是名词story,说明应该使用现在分词转换的形容词。
【74题详解】
changes本句中谓语部分是系动词are,说明主语应该是一个复数形式的名词,所以使用changes。
【75题详解】
patient 横线前面有系动词be,说明本句是一个祈使句be patient耐心一点。因为很多变化都是逐渐发生的,需要很多努力,我们要耐心一点。
【知识归纳】
谈or的用法
1.在否定句中表示“和”。He can’t sing or dance.他不会唱歌、跳舞。
2.“否则”,表示转折的意思。Hurry up,or you’ll miss the first bus.快点,否则你将错过第一班公共汽车。
3.“或者”,表示选择,可引导选择疑问句。either---or---或者---,或者---。

5.persuading改为persuaded
6.prepare后加for
7.As改为Though或Although

【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了在考上重点中学后,父母的劝服作者住校以学会独立,通过住校作者还学会了如何与他人相处。
【详解】第一处:考查形容词。句意:两年前,我努力学习,考上了当地的一所重点中学,这让我的父母很骄傲。修饰名词key school用形容词,故locally改为local。
第二处:考查代词。句意参考上题解析,此处为非限定性定语从句,关系代词which 作of的宾语,it是多余的,故删掉it。
第三处:考查固定搭配。句意:从那时起,我每天早起并按时到校。from the on表示“从那时起”,故then后的 up改为on。
第四处:考查状语从句的省略。句意:放学后,我及时回到家帮父母做一些家务,同时听一些轻音乐。在while引导的时间状语从句中,当主从句主语一致时,可以省略主语和be,本句省略了I was,故enjoy改为enjoying。
第五处:考查时态。句意:然而有一天,我母亲劝我住校,学会独立,为以后的生活做准备。事情发生在过去,应该用一般过去时,故persuading改为persuaded
第六处:考查固定搭配。句意参考上题解析,prepare for表示“为……做准备”,故在prepare后加for。
第七处:考查状语从句。句意:尽管我不高兴,但我还是理解父母并听从了他们的建议。此处表示让步而非因果关系,故As改为Though或Although。
第八处:考查名词。句意参考上题解析,advice是不可数名词,没有复数形式,故advices改为advice。
第九处:考查连词。句意:住校后,我发现住校节省了很多时间并让我学会如何与他人相处。根据句意可知此处表示“在……后”,故Before改为After。
第十处:考查宾语从句。句意参考上题解析,根据句意可知此处表示“如何”,故what改为how。
【点睛】固定搭配是短文改错的常见考点,特别是动词与介词的搭配,例如本篇就考查了两处固定搭配,第三处from the on表示“从那时起”,第六处,prepare for表示“为……做准备”,同学们千万不要把与动词搭配的介词弄混或遗漏。

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Thank you for listening
【答案】Ladies and gentlemen,
Yesterday our teacher of English asked me to say something about pollution.Now, I give you my views on this vital question.
As a matter of fact, the effects of industrial pollution are well known to everyone-----polluted air, polluted water, polluted earth.Though a great deal is already being done to control these effects, the problem of pollution is still serious.Continues population increase, smog and chemical waste produced by factories and cars, not only threatens to exhaust our resources, but also pollutes our environment.We do need clean air, safe water and our children’s health.
In my opinion, to solve the problem of pollution, everyone must refrain from polluting our environment.We should know that this is the duty of every individual, not that the government alone.
Thank you for listening.
