Saddam agreed last Tuesday to let arms inspectors (武器核查员) back into Iraq under existing (现有的) UN agreements reached in February, 1998. However, the US Government continues to demand access (进入)to Saddams eight palaces. The US believes that Saddam has been building weapons of mass destruction (大面积杀伤性武器) in Iraq. They want to be allowed to inspect Saddams palaces because they believe that otherwise he may try to hide a nuclear, chemical or biological weapon inside one of them. America claims they are so worried because it feels they may be the target (目标) of such a weapon after the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington last year. On October 2, 2002, US President George W. Bush got the support he wanted from the Congress (国会) for a military attack on Iraq if Iraq doesnt agree to a full inspection. A son of a poor peasant, Saddam came into power in 1972. He led Iraq through a decade long war with Iran in the 1980s, and in August, 1990 Iraqi forces invaded Kuwait (科威特). A US-led alliance (联盟) ran Saddams forces out of Kuwait in the Gulf War, which ended in February of 1991,with Saddam still in power. Iraqis will vote (投票) on October 15 probably to give Saddam Hussein another seven-year mandate (授权). “All Iraqis love Saddam Hussein and he will win 100 percent of the vote,” said Khalil Khamis, a sculptor (雕塑家). The vote, however, risks being overshadowed (笼罩) by the return of UN arms inspectors, expected in mid-October.1 In the fourth paragraph, “them” in “inside one of them” refers to.A.weapons B.Saddam s palaces C.arms inspectors D.the US答案：B 第四段: 美国最担心萨达姆会在他的总统府中藏匿武器, 所以这里的them就是指总统府。2 About Saddam, which of the following statements is NOT true?A.He is the president of Iraq. B.He is a son of a poor peasant.C.He took part in the war with Iran in 1980sD.In the vote of Iraq on October 15, he will retire.答案：D文章中已经说明了萨达姆是伊拉克的总统, 他是一个贫穷农民的儿子, 他曾经领导了20世纪80年代对抗伊朗的战争, 所以, A, B, C都是对的。 文章没有提到萨达姆退休的问题, 而且还说他会连任, 所以D是错的。3 From the essay, the war between Iraq and Kuwait lasted formonths.A.4 B.5 C.7 D.9答案：C从文章知道战争从1990年8月开始, 持续到1991年2月, 一共是7个月的时间。4Which of the following statements is not the opinion of US to Iraq?A.Saddam should allow arms inspectors access to his palaces. B.Saddam has been building weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. C.US can accept the fact that Saddam is elected to be the president of Iraq again.D.US will give a military attack on Iraq if Iraq doesnt agree to a full inspection.答案：C A, B, D三项都在文章中有出处, 是正确的。C项在文章中没有提到, 而且可以推测出美国对萨达姆充满敌意, 是不会接受他连任的事实的。5What is the main idea of this essay? A.Saddam is the most powerful man in the Middle East.B.Saddam will be the president for another 7 years.C.The Saddams history and the attitude of US towards IraqD.There may be a war between US and Iraq again.答案：C因为整篇文章都讲述的是萨达姆的个人历史, 和他有关的重大事件, 以及美国对伊拉克现在的态度, 所以C答案全面概括了文章, A, B, D都只说了文章的某一个方面。Passage 2 Compared with their cosmologist (宇宙学家) colleagues, cosmogonists (星源学家) can sound a little old-fashioned. Edgar Allen Poe turned to the mysteries of cosmogony in an 1848 public lecture, just reprinted by Hesperus Press. And we encountered a reference to cosmogonists most recently in a new edition of Poes prose poem Eureka. Whats the difference between cosmologists and cosmogonists? Just two letters and a few billion light years. Cosmologists worry about where the Universe came from, cosmogonists with how the Solar system formed. The interesting thing is that one-and-a-half centuries after Poe, they still cant reach agreement on what happened in the nearest 5 light years of space. Whats the problem? It turned out that there are a couple of competing explanations for why our neighborhood is the shape it is, as well as several bizarre anomalies in the data, cosmogonists know that the Solar System is essentially flat. With the exception of two tiny outliers, Mercury and Pluto, the orbits of all the other planets lie in very nearly the same plane. And most cosmogonists agree that this is because the planets themselves formed from a nebular (星云状的) disc orbiting the early Sun, which had itself coalesced out of the same cloud of gas and dust. But theres a catch. If the planets and the Sun came from the same nebular disc, then the Suns equator should lie in the planetary plane. It doesnt. The Sun leans over at an angle of 7.25. The majority of cosmogonists insist the angle is so close to zero that it really doesnt matter. Anyway, they add, the Sun has been losing mass for most of its life, and may have slipped a little. The remaining minority arent having this. How can 7.25 be the same as zero? The Sun and the planets did come from cosmic dust, they say, but not from the same cloud of material. The Sun took shape somewhere in the Galaxy. Then it sailed along and picked up the planets as perhaps the gas and dust that gave birth to them elsewhere. Is a tilting Sun the cosmogonists only headache? Not at all. Its also hard to agree on how the outer planets formed. Far out in the nebular disc, matter would have been so spread out that it couldnt quickly have dumped together. Some suggest planet-sized gravitational instabilities, other can find no reason for Uranus and Neptune to have formed yet. The closer you get to home, it seems, the deeper the mysteries.1 What is Adgar Allen Poe by profession according to the passage?A.He is a cosmologist. B.He is a cosmogonist.C.He is a university instructor. D.He is a famous poet.答案：D 前两段有提到了Adgar Allen Poe，因此值得一看.判断 POE 和 “他们”是不同类的人，借助该句前句的内容知道they指代Cosmologists和cosmogonists， 因此判断POE只能是诗人。该题考察考生的推断能力。2 A cosmologist differs from a cosmogonist in that.A.he sounds a bit old-fashioned B.he learns from Adgar Allen PoeC.he studies the origin of the whole Universe D.he tries to explain how the Solar System formed答案：C分析：前面在借助问题及被选项分析文章主题的过程中已经基本判断C和D可能是答案，利用C中的核心结构origin of the whole Universe和D中的核心结构how the Solar System formed作为答案线索，顺着上题的答案位置往下找，这样找到答案相关句（第2段）根据该句内容判别C是答案。3 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to paragraph 3?A.The Solar System is completely flat.B.Mercury and Pluto are not in the same plane with other planets.C.The Sun and the planets have different origins.D.The sun formed out of the same nebular disc with its planets.答案：A分析：该题是有关细节的题，第三段说除了水星和冥王星以外，其他所有的行星都几乎位于同一个平面上，显然并不是太阳系所有的行星都位于同一平面上，因此判断A的说法不正确。4Most cosmogonists believe that.A.the Suns equator lies in the planetary plane B.the Sun leans over because of loss of massC.the Sun and the planets have different origins D.the Sun took shape somewhere in the Galaxy答案：B从第3段可排除C。第四段暗示大多数星源学家承认太阳是倾斜的，判断出B的说法正确：由于物质的流失太阳倾斜出一定的角度。5From the last part of the passage we can infer that.A.cosmogonist have more disagreements about the distant outer spaceB.astronomers have already obtained full knowledge about Uranus and Neptune.C.there exist a lot of mysteries for cosmogonists in inner spaceD.cosmogonists are often reluctant to go home for the existence of deeper family mysteries答案：C推断题。看文章的最后一部分，该句内容与B不一致. 结合该段内容判断get to home肯定不是回家的含义，因此也排除了D。比较A和C，结合文章的主要内容，主要是在介绍太阳系中的太阳和太阳系中的行星，因此A中的distant outer space似乎有些离题，而且get to home本意是“回家”，是往“里面”走， 所以看来A成为答案的可能性较小，而C就是提到的inner space，inner与get to home呼应，因此判断C是答案。Passage 3 To Whom It May Concern:My husband and I got married in 1965 and for the first ten years of our marriage I was very happy to stay home and raise our three children. Then four years ago, our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work. My husband was very supportive and helped me to make my decision. He emphasized all of the things I can do around the house, and said he thought I could be a great success in business. After several weeks of job-hunting I found my present job, which is working for a small public relations firm. At first, my husband was very proud of me and would tell his friends, “My clever little wife can run that company shes working for.” But as his joking remark approached reality, my husband stopped talking to me about my job. I have received several promotions and pay increases, and I am now making more money than he is. I can buy my own clothes and a new car. Because of our combined incomes, my husband and I can do many things that we had always dreamed of doing, but we dont do these things because he is very unhappy. We fight about little things and my husband is very critical of me in front of our friends. For the first time in our marriage, I think there is a possibility that our marriage may come to an end. I love my husband very much, and I dont want him to feel inferior, but I also love my job. I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I dont know how .Can you give me some advice? Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career? Please help.1 The letter was most probable written.A.in 1975 B.around 1980 C.four years ago D.in 1965答案：B 通读全文后，再将选项进行比较，即可推
