&第一部分 听力第一节& 1―5BACBB第二节& 6―10CCCBB& 11―15BCBCB&
16―20AABBC第二部分：英语知识运用第一节：语法和词汇知识21．答案：D解析：当独一无二的职务作表语或宾补时，前面可以不用冠词；society此处意为“社团；团体”，是单数可数名词。22．答案：C解析： There is no point in doing sth为固定句型，意为：做……是没有意义的，没有用的。23．答案：A& 解析：not in the least等于not at all“一点不；丝毫不”，因此应选A, 意思为“（她做的事）不可能更糟了”，即“非常糟糕”。24．答案：C& 解析：escape后跟动名词作宾语；由于主语the
little boy是burn动作的承受者，所以要用动名词的被动式。25．答案：C解析：从can’t say for sure可知答案为may, 意为“或许；可能”。26．答案：B& 解析：is后为that引导的表语从句；在表语从句中，包含有由what引导的主语从句what they do，what在主语从句中作do的宾语。27．答案：B 解析：过去分词的否定形式作applicant form的后置定语。28．答案：C 解析：with后跟复合宾语，as后跟句子；raise是及物动词，rise是不及物动词；by表示差别，综合以上可判断C为正确答案。29．答案：C 解析： in response to“应对；作出反应”。&30．答案：D 解析：根据句意断定你不可能见到他，已经走了两周了。31．答案：A 解析：事实上， advertise 可用作及物和不及物动词：用作及物动词时，其意为“为……做广告”、“登广告宣传”；用作不及物动词时，其意为“做广告”、“登广告”，此时通常后接介词 for，表示“做广告征求”。比较：
advertise for sth (sb) 登广告征求或寻找某物或某人 (此时 advertise 不及物)
advertise sth 为……登广告，登广告宣传……(此时 advertise 是及物动词，其后要直接跟被宣传的东西作宾语)32.答案：A 解析：此题涉及两个搭配：一是
not … but …（不是……而是……），二是 whether … or not (是否)。请看类例：He was not
an actor, who often appeared on stage, _____ a writer, writing stories.
A．but&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
B．and&&&& C．then&&&&&&&&&&&&&&D．so 主要考查 not … but … 结构。33．答案：D解析：由句意可知：“我”本希望给他发封贺电，但未办到。had
hoped/thought/meant……本希望/想/打算做某事，但与过去事实相反。34．答案：A 解析：由so we only had time for a few words可知：当我们到访时，Dr．Smith．正要离开，was leaving过去进行时表将来。35．答案：B 解析：第一眼看四个词从形式上看都是以-ly结尾的形容词，但从句子结构看，空白处需要填连词。但不少学生受hardly…when…影响，可能很容易选A。其实，directly/immediately等少数副词具有连词的功能用来连接两个句子，意思是“一…….就…..”，相当于as soon
as, the Moment 等用法。第二节：完形填空36．答案：B& 解析：此句是中国名言：“每个事业成功的男人身后都有一个女人帮助或支持”37．答案：D 解析：sayings 意为：“俗语、谚语”，指上面说到的。38．答案：D 解析：有前面句子得出， “男人统治整个世界，女人统治整个世界的男人。”39．答案：A 解析：根据上下文。40．答案：B 解析：根据后面的want 得出，她们想要东西。41．答案：A 解析：根据下句，when they work 可了解。42．答案：A 解析：本句意思为：“他们想要高的报酬”是被动句式。43．答案：C 解析：此句意思为：“她们想和世界其他男人一样做事成功”44．答案： B 解析：此处为“美国早期妇女解放运动”，activity活动;affair 事件 事情；incident事件。而答案B则是运动。45．答案：A 解析：根据上下文得知。46．答案：D 解析：此处意思为：“有同等的获得成功的机会” 。47．答案：A 解析：本句子讲的是寻求职业。48．答案：B 解析：妇女希望和男人同样的待遇。49．答案：D 解析：妇女自由了，be proud of “以……而自豪”;be fond
of“喜欢”;be afraid of“害怕”;be tired of “厌倦”。50．答案：C 解析：上下文可推理得出。51．答案：B 解析：根据have confidence in herself 得出只是微笑而不是哭泣。52．答案：B 解析：as long as只要；as soon as 一…..就….; as far as 那么远.。53．答案：A 解析：许多美国妇女不赞成这一运动。54．答案：C 解析：从整篇文章得出，上下有转折关系。55．答案：D 解析：make changes发生变化；make progress取得进步；make decisions做出决定。 &第三部分：阅读理解56．答案：A词意猜测题。解析：男女大脑的思维在某些方面的差异是天生固有的。57．答案：C推理判断题。解析：根据文章第五段可推断出选项中这类物体是以白色为限定& 范畴的，故选项C为答案。&58．答案：B推理判断题。解析：男性在推理和空间思维方面占优势，女性在提取大脑中储存的记忆信息方面占优势。故答案为B。59．答案：A细节理解题。解析：根据文章第四段可知。文章只是说调查涉及到老年人，但并不都是老年人，故排除B。选项D不是造成调查结果不准确的原因。60．答案：B主旨理解题。解析：根据文章第一段可知。61．答案：B细节题。解析：从文章第二段第三行“the largest tsunami damage occurred at Isla Chiloe---the coastal
area closest to the epicenter(震中).”可以得到答案。62．答案：C本题为细节题。
解析：考察文章第二段的最后几句。A选项不是arrived immediately而是10-15分钟以后到来。B选项为至少200人，D选项不是half of the inland而是half a kilometer，故以上3个选项均有误。63．答案：B解析：最后一段的最后一句“However, it is believed that most of the deaths in Chile were
caused by the tsunami.”说明本题答案。64．答案：D．细节题。解析：2,000,000为无家可归人的数目；200,000为the city of Valparaiso的人口数。490 to 5,7002为地震和海啸共同导致的死亡数。65．答案：A．推理判断题。解析：由本段的下一句A total of 130,000 houses were destroyed可以推测出答案。66．答案：C综合细节题。解析：文中没有提到只有南方人吃甜元宵。要特别注意题干中的NOT一词。67．答案：A简单推测题。解析：第一段中说明它起源于金代，盛行于唐宋，说明是中国的。68．答案：D细节顺序题。解析：prepare some rice flour文中未提，但应该在前。69．答案：D主旨大意题。解析：文中说了元宵的起源、制作材料和方法以及流行情况，只有D能概括全文。70．答案：A推理判断题。解析：文中显示我们吃元宵主要是因为它是传统。71．答案： D推理判断题。解析：根据文章最后一段，火炬手选拔的标准之一为“love of Chinese culture and history”，由此可推断Jenny Bowen是热爱中国文化和历史的；A项文章并未提到；B、C项与文章内容不符。72．答案：D 细节题。解析：根据第三段“Bowen hopes that running with the Olympic torch will help draw
attention to the children in China．”可得出答案。73．答案：C细节题。解析：第三段提到“it will be the longest torch relay in Olympic history．”，但文章并未提到是runners最多的；根据“in a contest organized by … Lenovo Group and … China Daily．”A的表述是正确的；根据倒数第二段，B表述正确；根据最后一段，D表述正确。74．答案：A主旨大意题。解析：文章主要讲的是生活在北京的Bowen将成为2008年为北京奥运会传递火炬的唯一一位美国人。75．答案：C推理判断题。解析：文章首先概述事件本身，接着分析背景，然后顺带提到其它相关信息，根据其结构，应为新闻报道。&&第四部分：书面表达第一节&&&&&& 阅读表达76．Homecoming

revision, what we need is solid foundation. As you know, we didn’t learn well
enough in the first two years, so please slow down and make sure we have really
mastered something. Besides, we need a little more time to think for ourselves.

give us more practice in case we forget？

write in natural English. I still have another request: assign us less homework
