Then you should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.问题:1. He walked fast

24、 as to avoid _.A.to be overtakenB.to overtakeC.being overtakenD.overtaking答案:C解析 他走得飞快以免被赶上。 解析 本题考查动词及被动语态的用法。句中动词avoid意为“避免做”，后面一般接动名词。而该句动名词与主语之间的关系是被动的，因此答案为C。 问题:2. Janet, _was praised by the teacher, is a top student in our class.A.the composition of hersB.the composition of whomC.her composit

25、ionD.whose composition答案:D解析 珍妮特的作文被老师表扬了，她是我们班一位最好的学生。 解析 本题测试的是定语从句的用法。本题考查关系代词的掌握程度。用whose composition来引导非限定性从句修饰Janet。因此答案为D。 问题:3. As it turned out to be a house party, we _ so formally.A.neednt dress upB.neednt have dressed upC.didnt need to dress upD.didnt need to have dressed up答案:B解析 由于这只是家

26、庭派对，我们没必要穿得那么正式。 解析 本题考查情态动词的用法。neednt have done sth. 指的是本不需要做某事，但却做了。故答案为B。 问题:4. She should like _ the result earlier.A.having toldB.to have been toldC.to have toldD.to tell答案:B解析 她应该喜欢被尽早告知结果。 解析 本题考查动词should like的用法。should like后面一般接动词不定式，should like to do sth. (应该喜欢做)，不定式的动作tell发生在主句谓语动作should l

27、ike之前，所以要用不定式的完成体。不定式的逻辑主语she是不定式动作tell的承受者，应该使用被动式。故答案为B。 问题:5. Ill give you a few hundred dollars so you can work without worrying your next meal is coming from _.A.thatB.whatC.whenD.where答案:D解析 我会给你几百块，这样你就能安心工作不用担心下一顿吃什么了。 解析 本题测试关系副词的用法。coming from提示此处应填一个表示地点的关系副词，故答案为D。 问题:6. There is a leath

28、er suitcase, _ broken, in the storeroom.A.the handle of itB.with its handleC.whose handleD.the handle of which答案:B解析 储藏室有个小皮箱，它的手柄坏了。 解析 本题考查with表示伴随状态的用法。这里的its指的是小皮箱的，指代更为明确。故答案为B。 问题:7. We depend on the suns rays for the light and warmth which _ us alive.A.keepsB.keepC.keptD.is keeping答案:B解析 我们依赖

29、太阳光给予的光和温暖，这使我们能生存下去。 解析 本题测试定语从句中主谓一致的用法。该句中的关系代词which在定语从句中做主语，代替light and warmth，是复数形式，故答案为B。 问题:8. Look at the terrible result! If only we _ as we were told.A.had doneB.doC.would comeD.did答案:A解析 看看这可怕的结果!如果当时我们听话照做就好了。 解析 本题测试虚拟语气的用法。if only后接过去完成时，表示一种不可改变的事实，表示说话人的主观愿望，包含一种懊悔的情绪。故答案为A。 问题:9. T

30、he fire _ in the furnace under the house.A.is believed to have startedB.they believe to have startedC.that is believed to startD.that they believe to start答案:A解析 大家认为火灾是房子下面的炉子引起的。 解析 本题首先是测试被动语态，fire是不可数名词，用is believed(据认为)表示对现在造成的影响，故用不定式的完成体。因此答案为A。 问题:10. The paint is still wet. _.A.Be not sure

31、to touch itB.Be sure to not touch itC.Be sure not to touch itD.Dont be sure to touch it答案:C解析 油漆还未干。不要碰它! 解析 本题测试的是祈使句表达方式。通常在祈使句表达方式中，不定式的否定形式not应置于动词不定式to之前。故答案为C。 Section BDirections: There are 10 incomplete statements here. You should fill in each blank with the proper form of the word given in

32、the brackets. Write the word or words in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet.问题:1. Neither the students nor the laboratory technician himself (make) _ the experiment before.答案:has made解析 不论是学生还是实验室技术员本人以前都没做过这个实验。 解析 本题考察主谓一致的用法。在neithernor；eitheror等连接并列成分作主语时，谓语动词与最靠近它的名词保持性、数的一致。 问题:2. Pro

33、f. Wilsons daughter teaches at a high school in California, and she (occasion) _ flies to New York to see him.答案:occasionally解析 威尔逊教授的女儿在加利福尼亚的高中当老师，她偶尔会飞来纽约看他。 解析 本题考查的是词性的转换。occasion名词“场合，机会”，句意要表明“不时地，偶尔”，需用其副词形式occasionally来修饰动词flies。 问题:3. The committee expects to come to a (decide) _ soon.答案:d

34、ecision解析 委员会希望尽快做出决定。 解析 本题考查的是词性的转换。本题所测试的结构为come to+名词。如come to an conclusion得出结论；come to an end结束。 问题:4. No one knows where he came from. There is something (mystery) _ about his family background.答案:mysterious解析 没人知道他从哪来的。关于他的家庭背景一直是个谜。 解析 本题考查的是词性的转换。此句需用形容词作sth.的后置定语，mystery的形容词是mysterious神秘的

35、，故弄玄虚的。 问题:5. I prefer (live) _ in the country rather than in a big city.答案:to live解析 比起大城市，我更喜欢住在乡下。 解析 本题考点为动词prefer的固定搭配。prefer to do sth.固定搭配意为“更喜欢”。 问题:6. Well do our best to help those (fortune)_ people.答案:unfortunate解析 我们将尽我们所能帮助这些不幸的人。 解析 本题考查的是词性和词义的转换。fortune名词“机会，运气”，而此处需用形容词，其形容词有两个：fort

36、unate幸运的，unfortunate不幸的，而后者方符合题目要求。 问题:7. The short supply didnt meet the demand that (increase) _ rapidly.答案:had increased/was increasing解析 供应的短缺不能满足快速增长的需求。 解析 本题考点为动词时态。本题主句时态为过去式，同时从句中的动词increase是与didnt meet同步或早于didnt meet，故填入had increased/was increasing都对。 问题:8. The (frighten) _ look of the tea

37、cher made the pupils become silent.答案:frightening解析 老师脸上让人害怕的神情使学生们都安静了。 解析 本题测试非谓语动词的用法。现在分词和过去分词作定语时词义不同。frightening令人害怕的；frightened可怕的。根据题意应填frightening。 问题:9. John and Mary had a (understand) _ , but they have made it up now.答案:misunderstanding解析 约翰和玛丽相互误会，到现在还没和解。 解析 本题考查的是词性和词义的转换。understand动词

38、“理解，领会”，而此处需用名词，其名词有两个：understanding理解，misunderstanding误解，而后者符合题目要求。 问题:10. (show) _ the ID card, the students were allowed to enter the exam-room one by one.答案:Having shown解析 只有出示身份证，学生们才可以挨个进入考场。 解析 本题测试非谓语动词的用法。因为先要出示身份证才能进入考场，所以要用分词的完成体作时间状语，即Having shown。 Part Reading ComprehensionDirections: T

39、his part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfil. You should read the reading materials 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 through 40. For

40、 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 centre. Eye contact is a nonverbal technique that helps the speaker sell his or her ideas to an audience.

41、Besides its persuasive powers, eye contact helps hold listener interest. A successful speaker must maintain eye contact with an audience. To have a good relation with listeners, a speaker should maintain direct eye contact for at least 75 percent of the time. Some speakers focus exclusively on their

42、 notes. Others gaze over the heads of their listeners. Both are likely to lose audiences interest and esteem. People who maintain eye contact while speaking, whether from a podium (演讲台) or from across the table, are regarded not only as exceptionally well disposed by their target but also as more be

43、lievable and earnest. To show the potency of eye contact in daily life, we have only to consider how passers- by behave when their glances happen to meet on the street. At one extreme are those people who feel obliged to smile when they make eye contact. At the other extreme are those who feel awkwa

44、rd and immediately look away. To make eye contact, it seems, is to make a certain link with someone. Eye contact with an audience also lets a speaker know and monitor the listeners. It is, in fact, essential for analyzing an audience during a speech. Visual cues (暗示) from audience members can indica

45、te that a speech is dragging, that the speaker is dwelling on a particular point for too long, or that a particular point requires further explanation.

46、ly concerned with _.A.the importance of eye contactB.the potency of nonverbal techniquesC.successful speech deliveryD.an effective way to gain visual feedbacks答案:A解析 本题为主旨题。文章第一段说眼与眼的交流是一种非言语技巧，它除了有说服功能外，还能帮助吸引听众的注意，成功的说话者必保持与听众眼睛之间的交流；第二段举例说明眼与眼之间的交流的力量；第三段说明它的另一种作用。由此看来，该文章主要是讲述眼与眼之间的交流的重要性。故答案为A。

47、2. According to the passage a good speaker must _.A.interest the audienceB.sell his or her ideas to an audienceC.keep direct eye contact with listenersD.be very persuasive and believable答案:C解析 本题为细节题。可在文章第一段第三句“A successful speaker must maintain eye contact with an audience”中找到答案。句中maintain与keep同义，故

48、答案为C。3. The word target in the last sentence of the first paragraph can best be replaced by _.A.followersB.goalC.audienceD.destination答案:C解析 本题为判断题。根据第一段后半段的上下文，可看出target即audience，意为“听众”，故答案选C。4. In daily life, when the glances of two passers-by happen to meet, these two persons will inevitably _.A.

49、smile to each otherB.feel awkward and look away immediatelyC.try to make a conversation with each otherD.Both A and B.答案:D解析 本题为细节判断题。本题可根据第二段的内容得出正确答案为D。5.

52、 the English language? Well, its true that English has been developing in scope and color and precision for centuries. It is rich and flexible.

But a far more influential group occupies important positions in universities, governments and industry, many have degrees attesting to their high intellectual accomplishments. Yet others sit behind type-writers, writing news, advertising copies, speeches

54、, scripts, popular journalism and books. Part of the linguistic problem is that its no easy task to select just the right word or phrase that will precisely convey your meaning.
