SeeingB. Seen C. To seeD. Being seen提示：此句采用倒装句型，正常语序为“The moon and numerous stars were seen in the sky on this starry night.”可见，是将seen移至句首。答案：B24.

DisappointingB. Being disappointedC. DisappointedD. Being disappointing提示：从句子结构和句意看，是他感到失望而离开办公室，因此用含被动意义的过去分词表示一种状态。being done这一形式作状语时往往强调一个正在发生的被动动作。答案：C27.

The girl cried out in a _ voice at the sight of a big poisonous snake.A. frightenedB. frighteningC. puzzledD. puzzling提示：句意为“女孩见到毒蛇时发出的应是惊恐而不是令人困惑的声音”。a frightened voice表示“某人因惊恐而发出的声音”，a frightening voice应理解为“令人害怕的声音”。答案：A31. Dont believe his story. It was _ by that boy.A. shown upB. turned upC. given upD. made up提示：四个短语意义分别为：show up“露面”；turn up“调高（音量）”；give up“放弃”；make up“虚构”。答案：D32.

It was three months _ the Smiths returned form abroad.A. sinceB. beforeC. afterD. until提示：如用该句表示“Smith一家从回来到现在已有三个月了”，应说“It is/has been three months since.”。现用before引导时间状语从句，字面意思是“回国前有三个月的时间”，可译为“三个月后，史密斯一家从国外归来”。答案：B. 完形填空(共20小题；每题1分，共20分)Sometimes I wonder if college and I were meant for each other. 36 days, many people 37 that they think a college diploma(文凭)is 38 only the paper on which it is 39.Those people may be 40.

Compare your pronunciation with the master version, see how you can do better and have another go. If you do this several times, you will find that each version is better than the last.Why not learn with someone else?It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you, it will make you keep working. Agree times to meet and set goals for the week, and test each other regularly.Dont get stuck by a word you dont know.Practise improvising(即兴的)ways of getting your meaning across when speaking spontaneously(本能地), even if you dont know the exact words or phrases. Think of the things you might want to say whenever you have spare time. A basic example is the use of tenses. If you dont know the past tense but want to talk about yesterday, use the verb in the present tense and use the word for yesterday. Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.Language learning is also about intuition(直觉).Guesswork is an important strategy in learning a new language. When listening to recorded material, you arent expected to understand everything first time round. If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time. Learn to make maximum use of all the clues you can pick up. For example, what do the speakers sound like? Happy? Angry? Calm? etc.Build up your vocabulary.A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning but dont try to learn too much at once. Its best to study frequently, for short periods of time. Take a maximum of six or seven items of vocabulary and learn them. Put them into sentences to fix them in your mind, then come back to them later. Much of the vocabulary in the course is presented by topic.And above all, have fun!56. Why should one have himself recorded when practising speaking?A. To improve his speaking.B. To record his own progress.C. To encourage others to start.D. To compare himself with others.57. Which of the following is the most important in learning English in the writers opinion?A. Speaking. B. Pleasure. C. Intuition. D. Vocabulary.58. It is implied in the passage that _ is helpful when you are learning English.A. body language B. a good memoryC. a good friend D. a proper dictionary59. According to the passage, one should _ when learning English.A. always work with other peopleB. be able to guess everything newC. often review what he has learntD. take little notice of grammar60. Which of the following proverbs(谚语)doesnt seem always true in learning a language?A. Practice makes perfect.B. A good beginning is half done.C. Rome is not built in a day.D. Dont run before you can walk.56.提示：Tip 1中指出，录音后经“compare(比较)”，达到“have another go”，即“better”。答案：A57.提示：根据末段“And above all, have fun”可见最重要的是“pleasure(=fun)”。答案：B58.提示：文中“Use facial expressions, hand movements”指的实质上就是“body language”。答案：A59.提示：Tip 5中的“come back to them，”即“温习；回顾”之意。答案：C60.提示：D项谚语是教人们做事要按部就班，而Tip 3中表明，如果你还不会用过去时，那就用现在时代替。可见该谚语在学习英语中并不适用。答案：DBIn 1933 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disneys cartoon film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nashs voice, he said, “Stop! Thats our duck!”The duck was the now famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the film, The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat and worn his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight-minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy, and because he lost his temper very easily. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickeys eight nephews. Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasnt a goody-goody, like Mickey.In the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational film about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappearedthere were no more new cartoons.Clarence Nash died in February, 1985.

Probably because he lost his temper very easily.D. Probably because he became angry with Mickeys eight nephews.61.提示：从第一段可知Walt Disney为filmmaker,且Nash与Disney的工作关系。答案：C62.提示：第二段首句中含有所需信息。答案：B63.提示：可从第一段中了解到Nash具有unusual voice。答案：D64.提示：可从短文末段获取答案。答案：C65.提示：可根据第二段末句作出判断。答案：BCWhy is setting goals important? Because goals can help you do and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow yourself to make your life happen.Successful and happy people have a vision of how their life should be and they set lots of goals (both short-term and long-range) to help them reach their vision. By setting goals you are taking control of your life. Its like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind (her goal) which is laid out for her on a map. She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns. The other driver has no goal or destination or map. She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas and oil. Which driver do you want to be?Winners in life set goals and follow through on(坚持到底)them. Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident. Goals arent difficult to set, and they arent difficult to reach. Its up to you to find out what your goals, ideals and visions really are. You are the one who must decide what to pursue and in what direction to aim your life.Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it. Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. Like a contract(合同)with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular fashion you are able to stimulate yourself to be continuously alert to situations that will further your goals.66. The author gave the example of two drivers to show _.A. the foolishness of the first driverB. the importance of having a map and right directionC. the foolishness of the second driverD. the importance of setting goals67. According to this text, the most important thing in realizing ones ideal is to _.A. try to be realistic about ones abilityB. have a clear understanding of what he or she wants in lifeC. let others understand him or her first, and then work together with themD. let others help him or her to make his or her dream come true68. If people want to reach their goals, they should _.A. write down their goalsB. sign a contract with other peopleC. face the difficulties in front of themD. discuss with others and ask for their help66.提示：本文开头提出了主题importance of setting goals，其后所举例子显然是为主题服务的。答案：D67.提示：从第三段中的“Winners decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals.”可推测答案。答案：B68.提示：第四段中告诉读者，研究人员所指出的“write a goal down”对于实现目标的作用。答案：ADGarry Kasparov, the Russian grandmaster of chess(棋)who was the world champion(冠军), played a match against the IMB supercomputer Deep Blue. Mr. Kasparov lost the six-game encounter by a single game. Now almost six years later, Mr. Kasparov begins a match against an Israeli program, Deep Junior, the three-time world computer chess champion. The match will be played at the New York Athletic Club, and shown in real time on the Web at www. x3dworld. com. The play will start at 3:30 p. m. on Jan. 26, 28, and 30, and on Feb. 2, 5, and 7.As early as 1957, Herbert A. Simon predicted (预言)that a machine would become the world chess champion in ten years. A game of chess is considered a calculation, and calculation, of course, is what c
