raining, it would_to stay at home and play cards.abe as just well bbe as well justcbe just as well djust be as well答案：c首先副词just需跟在be动词后，另外其修饰as well。3if youre free tonight, id like to invite you to a movie.thats nice of you, but are you_？arich bcareful cserious dtrue答案：cserious“当真的，严肃认真的”。根据所设选项，解题时易误选d，true指的是“事情的真实性”。4prc is_the peoples republic of china.alack of bshort ofcsign of dname of答案：b从句意可知，此处表示“为的缩写”。既非“迹象”，也非“名字”之意。5every room in our school is_with a colour tv set.asuppliedbgivencoffereddburnt答案：abe supplied with是固定用法，“被提供；供给”。6excuse me, but can you tell me whether mr. brown is still working here?sorry to tell you he_.adoesnt any more work herebdoesnt any longer here workcdoesnt work any more hereddoesnt work here any longer答案：dany longer和any more都表示“不再”，用于否定句中。一般要放在行为词的后面。所以选项d是正确语序。7the main problem with the road is_the road conditions need_.athat; to be improved bwhich; to be improvedcwhere; improving dwhen; improving答案：a由句子结构可知，从句中不缺成分，这是一个同位语从句，说明名词problem，意思是“问题就是路的质量需要提高”。conditions与improve之间为被动关系，故用doing或to be done即可。8that night tom drove his car at_we thought a dangerous speed.aas bwhich cwhat dthat答案：c句中 thought为插入语，what在宾语从句中作主语。由题干可以看出，speed与介词at搭配。9_with a difficult situation, arnold decided to ask his boss for advice.ato face bhaving facedcfaced dfacing答案：c本句句意：面临困难的局势，arnold决定去向他的老板请教。本题实际考查非谓语动词和短语be faced with“面临”，a项不定式置于句首表目的，显然不正确face是及物动词相当于be faced with所以b、d两项不正确，故答案选c。10you can eat food free in my restaurant_you like.awhenever bwherevercwhatever dhowever答案：a根据like和restaurant，首先排除表示方式和地点的词，又由于前面又有了一个信息点food，所以应排除whatever而用whenever最佳。句意为：你随时都可以来我的餐馆免费就餐。.完形填空have you ever imagined that you could be cloned like dolly the sheep

their members start to see things not so much according to what they need, but according to what they want. when people have enough money, these wants become demands.now, its important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies(策略). there are various ways of doing this. one way at supermarkets(超市), for example, is to interview(采访)customers while theyre doing their shopping. they can be asked what they prefer to buy and then the results of the research can be studied. this provides information on which to base future marketing strategies. its also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public, as if they were ordinary customers, to get an idea of how customers act.another way to get information from customers is to give them something. for example, some fast food restaurants give away tickets in magazines or on the street that permit customers to get part of their meal for nothing. as well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money, it also allows the managers to get a feel for where to attract customers and which agegroups to attract.another strategy used at some wellknown parks such as disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work, touring the park dressed as mickey mouse or something like that. this provides them with a perfect chance to examine the scene and watch the customers without being noticed.1the text is

which has existed for at least six thousand years. it was always evil and usually foolish, but in the past the human race managed to live with it. modern skill has changed this. either man will stop war, or war will stop man. for the present, it is nuclear weapons that cause the greatest danger, but bacteriological(细菌的)or chemical weapons may, before long, offer an even greater threat. if we succeeded in stopping war, there would be no danger for us. to do this, we need to persuade mankind to look upon international questions in a new way, not by contests of force, in which the victory goes to the side which is most skillful in massacre(大屠杀), but by arbitration(仲裁)in accordance with agreed principles of law. it is not easy to change old mental habits, but this is what must be attempted.there are those who say that the adoption of this or that ideology(意识形态)would prevent war. i believe this to be a complete error. all ideologies are based upon beliefs without proof which are, at best, doubtful, and at worst, totally false. those people who believe them are willing to go to war in support of them.the movement of world opinion during the past two years has changed very largely such as we can welcome. it has become a common belief that nuclear war must be avoided. of course, very different problems remain in the international world, but the spirit in which they are being approached is a better one than it was some years ago. it has begun to be thought, even by the powerful men who decide whether we shall live or die, that agreements should be reached even if both sides do not find these agreements wholly satisfactory. it has begun to be understood that the important conflict(冲突)nowadays is not between east and west, but between man and the hbomb.5from the first paragraph we can know that_.awe may face greater threat from weaponsbbacteriological or chemical weapons are less dangerous than nuclear weaponscmans idea of victory has changedddangerous weapons are forbidden in modern society答案：a细节理解题。文章第一段说明，生化武器也许会给人类带来更大的威胁。6the author believes that the only way to stop war is to_.astop nuclear weaponsbsettle international issues through agreementscdestroy bacteriological and chemical weaponsdlet the stronger side take over the world答案：b细节理解题。文章第一段作者认为，要避免战争人们必须抛弃用战争来解决争端的传统观念，通过协商来解决问题。7the last paragraph suggests that_.anuclear war will definitely not take placebreal agreements have been now reachedcworld opinion is still divided on nuclear wardman is beginning to realize that nuclear war is his greatest enemy答案：d细节理解题。文章最后一句说明，人类现在认识到，目前最大的冲突并非来自于东西方，而是高科技武器的威胁。8which of the following words can best describe the authors feeling in writing this passage?adisappointed. bdoubtful.cworried. dhopeful.答案：d推理判断题。从文章最后一段看，人们解决争端的思维模式已经发生了变化，不是靠武力，而是通过协商，因此作者对人类未来避免战争还是充满了希望。选 做 题.短文填空根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。for over one hundred and fifty years, americans of all social
