You should read the reading material carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1Directions:After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 to 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. To the professional linguist, there is no superiority of any language. Therefore, it is well-accepted in the field of linguistics that there exist no higher or lower grades among languages. People once thought of tile languages of backward groups as undeveloped forms of speech, consisting largely of rough and simple sounds. It is possible that language in general began as a series of simple sounds. But it is a fact established by the study of backward languages that no spoken tongue answers that description. Most languages of backward groups are extremely complex pieces of tool for the transfer of ideas. They fall behind the western languages not in their sound pattern or grammatical structures but only in their vocabularies. The sound pattern or grammatical structures usually are fully adequate for all language needs. The vocabulary reflects the objects and activities known to their speakers. There are two things to be noted. Firstly, all languages seem to possess ways for vocabulary expansion. Vocabulary expands either by putting together its own words or by borrowing words from other languages. Secondly, the backward languages are different from ours. The objects and activities which require distinction are often surprisingly numerous and complicated.36. What does the word superiority (Line 1, Para. 1) mean? A. Being complete. B. Being better. C. Being large. D. Being tiny.37. We can learn from the first paragraph that _. A. some kind of languages may be better than others B. we can not say one language is better than others C. it is difficult to know which language is better than others D. language contains some grades38. The languages of backward groups were regarded as underdeveloped because _. A. their languages were difficult to understand B. the history of their languages was not long C. the sounds of their languages were very easy to understand D. their languages mainly contained rough and simple sounds39. In the authors view, some languages fall behind western languages in the aspect of _. A. their sound pattern B. their grammatical structures C. their vocabularies D. their speakers40. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Language is to be viewed with ranks or grades. B. Most languages of backward groups are complex enough to express ideas. C. Generally languages are probably developed from simple sounds. D. All languages seem to possess the system for vocabulary expansion.Task 2Directions:This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45. Cyber crime which is the illegal activity committed on the Internet is the fastest growing criminal activity in the world and is of major concern to the Government. From traditional crime on-line to new crimes that target information and communications networks, it covers a huge range of unlawful activities. UK and international agencies are working together to combat the threat of cyber crime. Access to information and communications technology (ICT) is globally available and increasingly used. Most Internet and e-mail users are involved in lawful business. However, some use the technology for unlawful activities. Global and transnational crimes can now be committed far distant from the place (or places) where the impact of that crime is felt. Transnational hi-tech crime involves the criminals computer communicating by using a number of other machines to reach its intended target. This activity leaves a data record with the service provider. If the records are retained and the criminal has not concealed them, they can be used to trace the criminal. However, these data records are not permanent. In many cases when law enforcement officials attempt to gain lawful access to this data, it may have been deleted. As lawful use of IT increases, criminals around the world increasingly use computers to commit traditional crimes. Computer hacking is also an area of concern.41. According to the passage, cyber crime refers to _. A. the unlawful activities committed by the Internet B. the illegal activities done by telephoning C. the unlawful activities done by getting others digital records D. the illegal activities committed by hacking others computers42. Which of the following best reveals the urgency to combat cyber crime? A. It grows the fastest among all the criminal activities. B. UK and international agencies join together in combating it. C.

Fantastic English Institute是一家著名的英语培训机构，总部设在北京，在全国有15个培训中心。为了拓展机构，现招聘学习顾问一名。该职位负责帮助学生成功完成学习任务。职位要求： 工作地点：深圳 英语院校本科毕业 良好的英语口语和写作能力 具有至少3年以上的教学或培训经验 有耐心、责任心，同时拥有独立工作以及团队工作的能力 有意者请将简历发至。答案Part StructureSection A16D 解析 本题考查的是谓语动词时态前后一致的用法：本句是主从复合句，上句的动词时态为一般过去时，根据谓语动词时态前后一致的原则，后面从句的动词时态出应以一般过去时为基础，且从句的时间状语为after the graduate entrance examination，对上句的谓语said来说，它属于将来的时间，故从句谓语时态应为过去将来时 选项D为止确答案。 避错指南 A项“will consider”是动词的一般将来时；C项“has considered”是动词的现在完成时，均不能与主句的一般过去时保持一致，故为错误选项；而B项“considered”是动词的一般过去时，与后面的时间状语表示的时间不一致，故排除。17C 解析 本题考查的是动词prevent司介词的搭配问题。当prevent表示“阻止某人做某事”时，宾语后面的介词需要用from。故选项C为正确答案。 避错指南 其他选项均不能与prevent搭配故排除。解答此类动词固定搭配题，需要考生掌握一些动词与介词的常用搭配意义。18B 解析 本题考查的是谓语动词时态前后一致和倒装句的用法。本句是主从复合句，后面从句的谓语动词could not find为一般过去时，根据谓语动词时态前后一致的原则，前面主句的谓语动词know的时态也应为一般过去时；“so+形容词/副词”放在句首加强语气时，主句中的主谓语必须要倒装。即使用“助动词+主语+谓语动词原形”的结构。故选项B为正确答案。避错指南 A项“the foreigner knew”和C项“the foreigner has known”均未实现主谓倒装；D项“has the foreigner known”是动词的现在完成时形式，与后面从句的could not find在时态上不一致。故此三项皆应排除。19B 解析 本题考查的是remember的用法。remember doing sth的意思是“记得做过某事”，而remember to do sth的意思是“记得要去做某事”：由于从句中的时间为过去，所以句子表达的意思应为“记得做过了”。此外，introduce与主语I之间是被动关系，需用被动式。故选项B为正确答案。 避错指南 A项“introducing”是主动式，不合句子的意思，而且introduce的用法是“introduce A to B”，表示“将A介绍给B”的意思，此处若用主动形式就缺少了宾语，因此可以排除此选项。C项“to be introduced”意思是“要被介绍给”，动作尚未发生，与题意不符；D项“introduced”无法与谓语动词remember搭配，故排除。20D 解析 本题考查的是定语从句的用法。通过分析可知，本句中从句的先行词是the elective system，是物而非人，故应从C和D两项中选择，又因从句中的介词提到了引导词的前面，故选项D为正确答案。 避错指南 A项“what”不引导定语从句；B项“whom”指代人，不能与表物的先行词搭配；C项“that”可引导定语从句，但不能与介词连用，故均可排除。21D 解析 本题考查的是形容词短语opposed to的用法。只有选项D“opposed”之后可以自接接to，构成词组opposed to，意思是“与相反的，与相对的”，跟在speeches后作定语，故选项D为正确答案。 避错指南 通过分析句子结构，空白处与to the/chairman一起作speeches的定语。句子不缺少谓语成分，可排除B项；oppose为及物动词，后直接接名词，故可排除A、C两项。22C 解析 本题考查的是词组by far的用法。它与形容词或副词的比较级或最高级连用时，置于这类词之前表“最，得多”：故选项C为正确答案。 避错指南 A项“so”与far搭配时，意思是“迄今为止”；B项通常与far构成短语as far as；D项不与far搭配，故均应排除。23A 解析 本题考查的是“should do型”虚拟语气的用法，“should do 型”虚拟语气以动词原形表示，用于表示愿望、请求、命令、决定、建议、设想等动词之后的that从句中，如：decide，demand，insist，order，request，propose，suggest，vote等动词之后的that从句中如：He ordered that all the books be sent at once本题用request表示“要求”，故正确答案为hand in，其中should省略。故A项为正确答案。 避错指南 B项“will have handed in”是动词的将来完成时；C项“to hand in”是动词不定式短语，D项“will hand in”是动词的一般将来时均不能与should搭配构成虚拟语气；故应排除。24D 解析 本题考查的是“情态动词+have done”的用法。这一结构有两种意义：1)表示对过去事情的一种推测：2)表示与过去事实相反。should have done表示与过去相反的假设，即“本应该做某事，但事实上却没有做”，是虚拟语气的一种用法。此句是should have done的否定式，意思是“本不向该做的事，但事实上做了”，因此选D项。 避错指南 A项表示“禁止做”；D项表示“没有能力做”；C项表示“不愿意做”，均不合句意，故予以排除。25B 解析 本题考查的是be used to的用法。be used to之后一般接动名词或名词，意思是“习惯于做某事”，故选项B为正确答案。 避错指南 解答此题的关键是要分清be used to(doing) sth. 和be used to do sth的区别，前者意为“习惯于做某事”，后者意为“被用来做”。A项和C项在此显然与句意不符。D项“being gotten up”为动名词的被动形式，主语he与get up之间应构成主动关系，故排除。26答案 largest 解析 本题考查形容词最高级的用法。英语中常用“the+序数词+形容词的最高级形式”来表示“第向个最”。 答题指南 要特别注意形容词最高级的特殊变化形式，比如多音节词前要加the most，以e结尾的单词加-st以及其他一些形容词的不规则变化。27答案 earlier 解析 本题考查固定结构的用法。“The+形容词或副词的比较级，the+形容词或副词的比较级”是英语中的固定结构，表示“越就越”的意思。 答题指南 遇到此类题时需要注意形容词、副词的比较级变化形式其中以y结尾的词变为比较级和最高级时，需要将y改为i再加-er或-est。28答案 misleading 解析 本题考查形容词的用法。通过分析句子成分可知，第一个分句的谓语由系表结构构成，而obviously为副词，因此空白处需要填入的单词必然为形容同；由第二个分句中的apologized可知，此处需填表示消极、否定含义的词，因而misleading符合要求，意思是“使人误解的，欺骗的”。 答题指南 mislead由lead之前加表示否定意义的前缀mis-变化而来，意思是“使某人产生错误想法或印象”，再加后缀-ing构成形容词misleading。在动词之前加表示否定的前辍是很重要的构词方式，需要掌握，又如mismanage(管理不当)，misname(叫错的名字；误称)等。29答案 Preference 解析 本题考查名词的用法。Because of是介词词组，后面应接名词或名词性短语，而prefer是动词，故应转化为对应的名词preference。 答题指南 注意because与because of的用法区别：because是连词，引导原因状语从句；because of与名词或名同短语一起作状语。30答案 social 解析 本题考查形容词的用法。social是society的形容词形式，修饰meaning作定语，social mea
