bright girl will soon get used to the new job?its hard to say.intelligence only for her lack of experience in part.a.accounts forb.compensatesc.countsd.answers for解析:句意:很难说。她缺少经验,聪明只能弥补一部分。compensate意为“弥补,补偿”符合题意。account for“说明原因”;count“数数,重要”;answer for意为“负责,承担后果”。答案:b5.believe it or not,im sure that is people call the six sense.a.whenb.whatc.whichd.why解析:句意:信不信由你,我确定那就是人们所说的第六感。本句考查表语从句。因从句中缺少宾语且指物,故选b项。答案:b6.(2013郑州质量预测,33)i wonder if sally has lost my phone number.i her call for the last two hours.a.had expectedb.have expectedc.am expectingd.have been expecting解析:句意:我怀疑sally是否弄丢了我的电话号码,我期待她的来电已经两个小时了。考查动词的时态。“over/in/during/for+the past/last+时间段”作状语时,主句谓语动词用现在完成时或现在完成进行时。句中的动作从过去开始到现在一直在进行,并有可能继续下去,因此,此处应该使用现在完成进行时态。故选d项。答案:d7.(2013济南3月模拟,28)have you finished your fashion design?not yet.ill finish it if i ten more minutes.a.am givenb.givec.will gived.will be given解析:句意:你完成你的时尚设计了吗?还没有,如果再给我十分钟的话,我将会完成它。考查动词的时态和语态。本句为if引导的条件状语从句,主句为一般将来时,则从句应用一般现在时表示将来意义,i与give之间为动宾关系,所以应用被动语态,故选a项。答案:a8.everyone in this country has the right to vote, the colour of their skin.a.in terms ofb.as a result ofc.in the absence ofd.regardless of解析:句意:不管他们是什么肤色,在这个国家每一位公民都有选举权。regardless of “不管,不顾”。答案:d9.when she heard her son was still safe,she crying.a.burst outb.burst intoc.burstd.burst of解析:句意:当她听到她儿子依然安全时,她失声痛哭起来。burst out后接动名词作宾语,而burst into后接名词作宾语。答案:a10.a few days ago,my uncle and his family moved to the city from the country the children could receive better education.a.even ifb.so thatc.so long asd.as soon as解析:我叔叔一家人从农村搬到了城市的目的是孩子们能接受更好的教育,故选so that。even if“即使”;so long as“只要”;as soon as“一就”。答案:b11.im planning to hold a party in the open air,but i can make no guarantees because it the weather.a.links withb.depends onc.connects withd.decides on解析:depend on指“取决于”,符合题意。link with“与有关联”;connect with“与相连”;decide on“决定”。答案:b12.the cyclone has thousands of deaths.a.resulted inb.resulted fromc.leads tod.resulted解析:句意:飓风已经造成了成千上万的人死亡。result in“造成,导致”,符合句意。再根据时态,本句应为现在完成时,故可排除c项。答案:a13.he attempted to the matter to others that he had done wrong.a.checkb.clapc.claimd.clarify解析:考查词语辨析。check“检查”;clap“鼓掌”;claim“声称”;clarify“澄清,阐明”。根据句意选d项。答案:d14. i saw her,she was working in a shop.a.the first timeb.for the first timec.to the first timed.firstly解析:此空引导时间状语从句,she was working.是主句。the first time可引导时间状语从句。答案:a15.look at the old woman!she is looking around for help.she must be

the elevator.i provided a visual description of her tiny room,including the eyelet(观察孔) sheets that had been hung on her window.“i love it,”she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old girl having just been presented with a new puppy.“mrs jones,you havent seen the room yet.just wait.”“that doesnt have anything to do with it,”she replied.“happiness is something you decided on ahead of time.whether i like my room or not doesnt depend on how the furniture is arranged,its a decision i make every morning when i wake up.”“i have a choice;i can spend the day in bed recounting(叙述) the difficulty i have with the parts of my body that no longer work,or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do.each day is a gift,and as long as my eyes open ill focus on the new day and all the happy memories ive stored away,just for this time in my life.old age is like a bank account,you withdraw(收回) from what youve put in.so,my advice to you would be to deposit(储蓄) a lot of happiness

recent study.the study,which is the first to indicate that laughter may help prevent heart disease,found that people with heart disease were 40 percent less likely to laugh in a variety of situations compared to people of the same age without heart disease.“the old saying thatlaughter is the best medicine,definitely appears to be true when it comes to protecting your heart,”says michael miller,m.d.,director of the centre for preventive cardiology at the university of maryland medical centre and associate professor of medicine at the university of maryland school of medicine.“we dont know yet why laughing protects the heart,but we know that mental stress is associated with impairment of the endothelium(内皮细胞).this can lead to fat and cholesterol(胆固醇)build-up in the coronary arteries(冠状动脉)and finally to a heart attack.”in the study,miller said the most significant study finding was that “people with heart disease responded less humourously to everyday life situations.”“the ability to laugheither naturally or learned behaviourmay have important effects on societies such as the us where heart disease remains the number one killer,”says miller.“we know that exercising,not smoking and eating foods low in fat will reduce the risk of heart disease.perhaps regular hearty laughter should be added to the list.”miller says it may be possible to incorporate(融入)laughter into our daily activities,just as we do with other heart-healthy activities,such as taking the stairs instead of the elevator.“we could perhaps read something humourous or watch a funny video and try to find ways to take ourselves less seriously,”miller says.“the recommendation for a healthy heart may one day be exercise,eat right and laugh a few times a day.”40whats the possible meaning of the underlined word “impairment”?a.protection.b.damage.c.movement.d.improvement.解析:猜测词义题。结合上下文可知impairment与damage 同义,意为“破坏,损伤”。答案:b41.according to the passage,which of the following is not true?a.laughter may be possible to help prevent heart disease.b.people with heart disease may react less humourously to everyday life.c.miller has known why laughing protects the heart.d.heart disease remains the number one killer in the us. 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“we dont know yet why laughing protects the heart,but we know that mental stress is associated with impairment of the endothelium.”可知c项不正确。a、b、d三项在文中都能找到。答案:c42.from miller and the study,we can conclude .a.a laugh every day will certainly keep the heart attack awayb.the natural ability to laugh will have greater effects on societies than learned abilityc.regular hearty laughter will reduce the risk of heart diseased.laughter has little to do with our daily activities解析:推理判断题。根据第六段“we know that exercising,not smoking and eating foods low in fat will reduce the risk of heart disease.perhaps regular hearty laughter should be added to the list.”可知c项正确。答案:c43.the best title would be .a.laughter is the “best medicine” for your heartb.protecting your heart is the “best medicine”c.how to protect your heartd.how to do laughter解析:主旨大意题。通读全文可知笑是保护心脏的良药。故选a项。答案:a.任务型读写44.阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。(每空一词)in addition to self-awareness,imagination,and conscience,it is the fourth qualityindependent willthat really makes effective self-management possible.it is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in agreement with them.it is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon,to actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qualities.the human will is an amazing thing.time after time,it has overcome unbelievable difficulties.the helen kellers of this world give dramatic(给人深刻印象的) evidence to the value,the power of the independent will.but as we examine this quality in the context of effective self-management,we realize its usually not the dramatic,the visible(可见的),the once-in-a-lifetime,up-by-the-bootstraps(自立自强的) effort that brings lasting success.this special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions we make every day.the degree to which we have developed our independent will in our everyday life is measured by our personal honesty.honesty is,fundamentally,the value we place on ourselves.its our ability to make and keep promises to ourselves,to “walk our talk”.effective management is putting first things first.while leadership decides what “first things” are,it is management that puts them first,day-by-day,moment-by-moment.management is discipline(training to be self-controlled),carrying it out.discipline obtains from beliefbelief in a set of values,belief in an overriding(最主要的) purpose,to a long-term or short-term goal that must be carried out.in other words,if you are an effective manager of yourself,your discipline comes from within;it is a function of your indep
