第一部分 听力(略)

第一节 单项填空(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分)
请认真阅读下面各题,从题中所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
21.In most Western countries on April Fool’s Day,people often play trick
on each other;children especially have great fun.
A.a;a B.the;the
C./;a D.a;/
答案 D
解析 考查冠词。play a trick on 为固定短语,意为“搞恶作剧,开玩笑”;have fun
意为“玩得开心”,fun 是不可数名词,前面通常不加冠词。
22.The howto book can be of help to wants to do the job.
A.who B.whomever
C.no matter who D.whoever
答案 D
解析 此处介词 to 后缺少宾语从句,而宾语从句又缺少主语,应用 whoever,相当于 anyone
who,意为“无论谁”。C 项只引导让步状语从句。
23.—What do you think of the sudden news?
—Well,it is quite and I am quite at it.
A.amazed;amazed B.amazing;amazing
C.amazing;amazed D.amazed;amazing

很吃惊。amazed 感到吃惊的;amazing 令人吃惊的。
24.She made a good on his mother.

C.impression D.situation
答案 C
解析 make a good impression on sb.给某人留下了很好的印象。句意为:她给他母亲留
下了很好的印象。
25.—Look!It’s snowing outside.
—Yes,it is the second time we snow this week.
A.are having B.have
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
2
C.have had D.had had
答案 C
解析 it is+序数词+that 从句,从句中用完成时。
26.The water cool when I jumped into the pool for morning exercises.
A.was felt B.is felt
C.felt D.feels
答案 C
解析 考查系动词。此处 feel 是系动词,用主动形式表示被动意义;由后面 jumped 可知用
一般过去式。
27.Black holes not be seen directly,so determining the number of them is
a tough task.
A.can B.should
C.must D.need
答案 A
解析 can 意为“能够”,表示黑洞是不能直接被看见的。should 意为“应该”,表示因责
任、必要、义务、道义、原则等方面的原因而应该做的事。must 意为“必须”,表示出于
职责、义务该做某事或出于主观意识而必须要做某事。need 意为“需要”。
28.With the help of high technology,more and more new substances in the
past years.
A.discovered
B.have discovered
C.had been discovered
D.have been discovered
答案 D
解析 由时间状语 in the past years 可知应用现在完成时,又因为物质是被发现的,故应
用被动语态。
29.I’d like to arrive 20 minutes early I can have time for a cup of tea.
A.as soon as B.as a result
C.in case D.so that
答案 D
解析 考查连词。句意为:我想早到 20 分钟以便有时间喝杯茶。空格线后面部分是前面的
目的,所以要用 so that 引导。as a result 不属于从属连词;in case 意为“预防”,不
符合句意。
30.He caught a cold,and he couldn’t come to the party.
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
3
A.or B.however
C.furthermore D.therefore
答案 D
解析 句意为:他感冒了,所以没能参加宴会。therefore 意为“所以”,表示因果关系,
引出结果,符合题意。or 或者;however 然而;furthermore 而且。
31.The books were so good that they in no time.
A.sold B.had been sold
C.were sold D.would sell
答案 C
解析 句意为:这些书很好以致一会儿就销售一空。因为 the books 和 sell 之间存在逻辑
上的被动关系,故动词须用被动语态。
32.Don’t forget you can still get when you are swimming.
A.burning B.burnt
C.being burnt D.to be burnt
答案 B
解析 考查系动词。此处 get 是系动词,get burnt 意为“晒黑”。
33.We him theft but he denied it.
A.charged;of B.accused;of
C.charged;for D.accused;with
答案 B
解析 句意为:我们指控他犯了盗窃罪,但是他否认了这一点。accuse sb.of sth.或 charge
sb.with sth.控告某人某事。
34.A better plan was at yesterday’s meeting.
A.put forward B.put out
C.put up D.put on
答案 A
解析 句意为:昨天会上有更好的计划被提了出来。put forward 提出,符合句意。put out
生产;put up 张贴,挂起来;put on 上演。
35.—Do you think we should call Mrs.James and apologize to her?
— It was our fault after all.
A.No way. B.Not possible.
C.Why not? D.Not at all.
答案 C
解析 根据语境判断,第二个人认为是“我们”的错,所以同意向 Mrs.James 道歉,故选
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
4

Sunny countries are often poor.A shame,then,that solar power is still quite
expensive.Eight19,a British company by Cambridge University,has,however,invented
a novel way to get round this.In return for a deposit of around 10 it is supplying
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。

poor Kenyan families with a solar cell able to generate 2.5 watts of electricity,
a battery that can deliver a three amp(安培) current to store this electricity,
and a lamp whose bulb is a lightemitting diode(二极管).The firm thinks that this
system,once the battery is fully charged,is enough to light two small rooms and
to power a mobilephone charger for seven hours.Then,next day,it can be put outside
and charged back up again.
The trick is that,to be able to use the electricity,the system’s keeper must
buy a scratch card—for as little as a dollar—on which is printed a reference
number.The keeper sends this reference,plus the serial number of the household solar
unit,by SMS to Eight19.The company’s server will respond automatically with an
access code to the unit.
Users may consider that they are paying an hourly rate for their electricity.In
fact,they are paying off the cost of the unit.After buying around 80 worth of
scratch cards—which Eight19 expects would take the average family around 18
months—the user will own it.He will then have the option of continuing to use it
for nothing,or of trading it in for a bigger one,perhaps driven by a 10watt solar
cell.
In that case,he would go then through the same process again,paying off the
additional cost of the upgraded kit at a slightly higher rate.Users would therefore
increase their electricity supply steadily and affordably.
According to Eight19’s figures,this looks like a good deal for customers.The
firm believes the average energystarved Kenyan spends around 10 a month on
oil—enough to fuel a couple of smoky lamps—plus 2 on charging his mobile phone
in the marketplace.Regular users of one of Eight19’s basic solar units will spend
around half that,before owning it completely.Meanwhile,as the cost of solar
technology falls,it should get even cheaper.
58.The underlined word “get round” in the first paragraph can be replaced by
“ ”.
A.make use of B.come up with
C.look into D.deal with
答案 D
解析 词义猜测题。根据本段“...solar power is still quite expensive.Eight19,a
British company by Cambridge University,has,however,invented a novel way to...”
可知,因为太阳能仍然很贵,所以 Eight19 发明了一个新的方法来解决这个问题,故选 D。
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
10
59.What should the user do when the electricity in the battery is used up?
A.Buy a scratch card.
B.Recharge it outside.
C.Buy another solar cell.
D.Return it to the company.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句“Then,next day,it can be put outside and
charged back up again.”可知如果没有电了,你可以把它放在外面重新充电,故选 B。
60.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that .
A.Kenyan families would find it difficult to afford the solar cell
B.using the solar cell would help Kenyan families save money
C.few Kenyan families use mobile phones for lack of electricity
D.the company will make a great profit from selling solar cells
答案 B
解析 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The firm believes the average energystarved
Kenyan spends around 10 a month on oil—enough to fuel a couple of smoky lamps—plus
2 on charging it should get even cheaper.”可知使用 the solar cell 会节省钱。故
选 B。

A fellow speaker from California named Geri flew to Japan,in her favorite jeans
and a casual jacket,to give her first speech.Fourteen hours later,four perfectly
dressed Japanese gentlemen greeted her at Narita Airport.Smiling and bowing low,
they handed her their business cards.With her bag in one hand,Geri took their cards
with the other.She thanked them,glanced briefly at the cards,and put them into
her jeans pocket quickly.
When the five of them arrived at the hotel,they invited Geri to tea in the
lobby(大厅).While sipping tea,the gentlemen presented her with a small gift which
she eagerly opened.She was thrilled with the gift and shouted excitedly,“Oh,
it’s beautiful!”
At this point,the four Japanese gentlemen stood up and,bowing only very
slightly,said “Sayonara” and left immediately.Poor Geri was left astonished.What
did she do wrong?
Everything!Her jeans were the first gaffe.Even if you’re coming off a bicycle
in Japan,you do not meet clients casually dressed.The second mistake was Geri’s
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
11
handling of their business cards rudely.In Japan,the business card is one of the
most important communicative tools.It is always presented and accepted respectfully
with both hands.However,Geri put their cards away much too quickly.In Japan,people
use business cards as a conversation starter.You chat about each other’s cards and
work and do not put theirs away until they gently and respectfully place yours in
safekeeping.Putting it carelessly into her jeans pocket was the ultimate disrespect.
Then,the fourth horror of horrors was that Geri should not have opened the gift
in front of her clients.In a land where saving face is critical,it would be
embarrassing to discover the gift they gave was not as nice as the one they
received.What is worse,Geri hadn’t even given them a gift!
61.In the four Japanese gentlemen’s eyes,Geri took their cards .
A.excitedly B.embarrassingly
C.politely D.disrespectfully
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The second mistake was Geri’s handling of their
business cards rudely.”可知这是对他们的不尊敬,故选 D。
62.Why did the four Japanese gentlemen leave Geri suddenly?
A.Because they couldn’t bear Geri’s behavior any longer.
B.Because they had finished the task.
C.Because Geri had something more important to do.
D.Because Geri felt embarrassed.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知,这些男士认为 Geri 的做法极不礼貌,已经无法
忍受,所以离开了,故选 A。
63.What does the underlined word “gaffe” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.ignorance B.sadness
C.mistake D.carelessness
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据第三段中“What did she do wrong?”,再根据第四段列举她的
错误所在可知,故选 C。
64.What lesson can we draw from this story?
A.Honesty is the best policy.
B.Think twice before you take any action.
C.When in Rome,do as the Romans do.
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
12
D.Don’t claim to know what you don’t know.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据 Geri 的做法可知她不了解当地的礼仪,故犯下这样的错误,因此
我们要入乡随俗,入境问禁。故选 C。
D
When my mother died,my four sisters and I were heartbroken.How could we ever
get over the loss of this warm and loving woman,a talented artist who enjoyed life
in spite of its challenges and always loved her husband,daughters and grandchildren?
For weeks after,my sisters and I would meet for dinner,laughing and crying
over old memories.When it came time to sell the home my mother loved,we spent many
days clearing out her belongings.Somehow,we easily and peacefully divided Mom’s
belongings—furniture,jewelry and household items—among ourselves and a few
charities.Although I expected there might be a tug of war over her paintings,that
never happened.No conflicts,quarrels or disputes at all.Until we discovered the
old nativity(耶稣诞生) set in a box in Mom’s closet.
Unlike some of the beautifully decorated versions found in today’s stores,
the manger(食槽) was crafted from dark wood and completely undecorated—just a roof,
a floor and a railing surrounding it.Though beautifully crafted,there was one
flaw(瑕疵).Mom filled it with three figurines to start—Mary,Joseph and the Baby
Jesus.For many years after,she continued to add others—the Wise Men,shepherds,
angels,and animals.As kids,we loved the annual traditions of the Christmas season,
especially taking the nativity set and decorations down from the attic and carefully
putting them in place.When the sisters all married and grandchildren came along,
they added new characters of their own to the manger,including a set of the three
little pigs.
After Mom’s death,when the nativity set appeared,no one was prepared for the
battle that would follow.My sister Joanne was the first to claim the manger,insisting
it was the only one of Mom’s possessions that she really wanted.Her wish was
granted.But when my niece Mandy found out,she called from her apartment in California
to voice her objection.She was clearly emotional as she repeated a decadesold
promise made to her by my mother:“Nanny promised me that I could have the nativity
set when she was gone,” she cried.“The nativity set belongs to me.” Joanne felt
strongly that as Mom’s daughter,she had first dibs.Neither she nor Mandy would
give up.
真正的价值并不在人生的舞台上,而在我们扮演的角色中。
13
When the disagreement showed signs of becoming a fullblown family argument,
we realized something had to be done.My sister Eileen,who somehow saw through the
fog,volunteered to act as the family arbitrator(仲裁员).But as Mandy’s mother and
Joanne’s sister,could Eileen handle this dilemma fairly?The nativity set was not
an irreplaceable masterpiece of art.Its beauty was in the eye of the beholders,
who strongly desired a simple item owned by someone they loved.Couldn’t a copy be
created?Of course!She would order the wood from the lumberyard and get someone
to build a second manger.
The following day,Eileen went to Centre Millwork and waited to order lumber
from a young man,Brett.When Eileen’s turn came,she pointed to the nativity set
in her arms and told him the story,explaining that it was causing a major division
between her sister and her daughter.Brett took the manger from her,held it up with
one hand and laughed,“They’re fighting over this?”
“Yes,” Eileen explained.“I know it seems crazy,but it was my mother’s and
they both loved her very much.Is there any way you could measure and cut some wood
so we could have a copy built?”
Brett said,“Leave it here.I’ll see what I can do.”Eileen left,hoping he
could come up with a minor miracle.That’s what it would take to satisfy the two
women in her life that were quarreling.
A few days later,she received a phone message saying that her order was
ready.When Eileen arrived at the hardware store to pick up the wood,she couldn’t
believe what she saw—two identical mangers sitting side by side.Brett had not only
cut and measured the wood,but he had also built a second manger.“I know you wanted
them to look the same,so I added a couple of flaws that were in the original.Hope
that’s okay.”
Sure enough,the new manger had the same lopsided front gate.“Okay?” Eileen
said in tears.“You have no idea what this will mean to my sister and my daughter.To
the entire family.I don’t care what this costs.Your work has saved the day.”
“That will be 3.75 for the materials,” Brett said.When Eileen insisted on
paying him more,he said,“I didn’t do it on company time.I built it at home so
I won’t charge you for the labor.” He pointed to the new manger,“I hope this
helps your family have a merrier Christmas.”
Eileen left Brett with a large tip and a big hug of thanks.When she got home
and called Joanne and Mandy about her creative solution,they were very happy and

A 10yearold boy decided to learn judo despite the fact that he had lost his
left arm in a car accident.
The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher.The boy was doing well,
so he couldn’t understand why,after three months of training,the master had taught
him only one move.
“Master,”the boy finally said,“shouldn’t I be learning more moves?”
“This is the only move you know,but this is the only move you’ll ever need
to know,” the teacher replied.
Not quite understanding,but believing in his teacher,the boy kept training.
Several months later,the teacher took the boy to his first tournament.
Surprising himself,the boy easily won his first two matches.The third match
proved to be more difficult,but after some time,his opponent became impatient and
charged;the boy skillfully used his one move to win the match.Still amazed by his
success,the boy was now in the final.
This time,his opponent was bigger,stronger,and more experienced.For a while,
the boy appeared to be overmatched.Concerned that the boy might get hurt,the judge

“No,” the teacher insisted,“Let him continue.”
Soon after the match continued,his opponent made a mistake:he dropped his
guard.Instantly,the boy used his move to pin him.The boy won the match and the
tournament.He was the champion.
On the way home,the boy and the teacher reviewed every move in each and every
match.Then the boy got up the courage to ask what was really on his mind.
“Teacher,how did I win the tournament with only one move?”
The teacher answered.“First,you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult
throws in all of judo.Second,the only known defense for that move is for your opponent
to grab your left arm.”

It’s all over the news:kids are spending a lot of time on homework,and research

shows that 29% of teenagers report spending 2 hours or more on homework every day
in the U.S.Many kids just take the easy way out and refuse to do the homework given
at school.
Why do teenagers have so much homework? One of the answers is that teachers often
have children covering material at home by themselves that they do not discuss during
school time at all.Of course,the teachers’ reasoning for this is that there aren’t
enough hours in the day and they want to cover more areas on a certain subject.
Some experts on education say there is no evidence to suggest that homework is
helpful to student achievement.On the contrary,too much of it can cause students
to quit.Other experts,however,say that homework is necessary and helpful.They
insist that homework is designed so students can practice the concepts taught in
class,build good study habits,and reflect on their own learning.

It is reported that many teenagers are having too much homework to do.While
teachers have good reasons why much homework should remain,experts on education
hold different opinions on the necessity of homework.
As a senior 3 student,I don’t think I have too much homework.Instead,I can
still find time to do some extra reading every day.
In my opinion,a large amount of homework for students of senior 3 is certainly
necessary since we can apply what we’ve learned in class and have a better
understanding of the knowledge after doing our homework.What’s more,more homework

As a senior 3 student,I have to say that I’m having so much homework that I
don’t have enough time for my own study plan.
In my opinion,a certain amount of homework is good to us senior 3 students,
but too much of it will surely add to much learning pressure.If we get much homework
for each of the six subjects every day,we will be lost in homework without any
reflection on our learning.
My homework takes up most of my outofclass time,and I spend the rest of the
time learning on my own since I believe independent learning is a good supplement
to teachers’ teaching.All in all,we need more outofclass time of our own and
we should use it properly and efficiently.
