Directions:Inthissection,thereisashortpassageinChinese.ReaditcarefullyandputitintoEnglish.

人生不是上帝为谴责我们的缺陷而给我们布下的陷阱。人生也不是一场拼写比赛，不管你拼出多少单词，一旦出现了一个错误，就会前功尽弃。人生更像是一个棒球赛季，即使最好的球队也会输掉三分之一的比赛，即便最差的球队也有春风得意的日子。我们的目标就是多赢少输。当我们能够接受不完整是人性的一部分这个事实时，当我们的人生不断滚动并能欣赏其价值时，我们就会获得其他人仅渴望的完整人生。我相信这就是上帝对我们的要求：不求“完美”，不求“永不犯错”，而是求得人生的完整。

六、作文(1题)96.Directions:Forthispart,youareallowed30minutestowriteacompositiononthetopic"HowIFi-nanceMyCollegeEducation".Youshouldwriteatleast120words,andbaseyourcompositionontheoutlinegiveninChinesebelow：1.上大学的费用（tuitionandfees).可以通过多种途径解决；2.哪种途径适合于我（说明理由）。

参考答案

1.A解析：根据上文提到“findone”，故下文中也应填one，表示泛指。

2.D

3.B解析：本题考查固定搭配的用法。当否定词位于句前时，得出结论应用reach/achievein/arriveatconclusion，故选B。

4.A

5.A本句考查两个并列句之间的连接的词。题干的意思是：“气球能够浮在空气中正如船能够浮在海面上一样。”在四个选项中，只有A项的justas有“正如，犹如”的意思。故选A。

6.D解析：本题测试形容词辨析。四个选项的意思分别是“普通的”，“清楚的”，“正义的”，“仅仅的”。根据句意，D项正确。本句大意为：他仅仅把它作为一个细节来描述，而我却认为它是这个计划中最重要的部分。

7.D

8.B解析：cuts“裁减”；shortages“短缺”；weaknesses“弱点”；imports“进口”，故正确选项为B。

9.D

10.A

11.B

12.B

13.C

14.D本题考查时态。

【应试指导】句意：当你写信回家的时候，请代我向你的妻子问好。在时间状语从句中用一般现在时代替一般将来时。

15.A解析：句意：她昏倒了。给她脸上浇些水，或许她会醒过来。本题考查词组辨析。comeround：过访，绕道而来，苏醒过来；comeback：回来，恢复；comeagain：再说一遍，重复一遍；comeout：出来，传出。

16.D

17.A解析：本题考虚拟语气在名词性从句中的用法。在“ask(advise，desire，ordersuggest，require，etc。)+the广引导的从句中，谓语动词应用“should+认”，should可以省去，再结合语态，故A项正确。本句大意为：他们要求所有的必要文件都必须在月底之前交到校长办公室。

18.Ainparticular是固定搭配，意为“特别地”。

19.C解析：本题考查词义的辨别。rise出现，put放下，raise提起，arise升高。

20.B解析：takemeasures意思为“采取措施”，本句应用被动语态。

21.A解析：shape意为“(女人的)姿态，身段”；form意为“形状，形态”；appearance意为“外表，样子”；body意为“身体”。由题意知应选A。

22.A解析：while意为“虽然”；as意为“因为”；if意为“如果”；since意为“因为”。根据题意选A。

23.B考查反义疑问句。原句应是：youwouldthinkhehadhaveforgotten…反义疑问句的规则是陈述部分是肯定式，疑问部分应是否定式。Wouldthink表示推测，疑问部分也应选择would。选项B是正确的。【句子大意】你难道还认为他已经忘掉了，是吗?

24.D

25.D解析：which修饰非限定性定语从句，指代前边一句话。本题涉及句法知识——简单句、并列句和复合句。例如：Hehastwodaughters.Theyaredoctors.(简单句)Hehastwodaughtersandtheyaredoctors.(并列句)Hehastwodaughters,whoaredoctors．(复合句)

26.B解析：此处是对将来情况的假设。虚拟条件句的谓语部分为should，had或were时，可把if省去，而把should，had或were放在从句的主语之前，构成主谓部分倒装。

27.B解析：本题考查动词固定搭配的用法。deprive后常接介词of，表示剥夺什么。

28.A

29.C

30.D解析：forgetdoingsth．忘了已做过某事。注意区别forgettodosth。忘了而没有做某事。

31.A【句子大意】新打字机的价格是二手货的三倍。

32.D

33.A解析：反问疑问句的陈述部分是肯定式时，疑问部分用否定式。以letme或letus起始的反问疑问句，疑问部分用willyou或won'tyou，所以选项A是正确的。

34.B

35.C解析：副词so置于句首，句子应该用倒装语序，某人受伤用sb.beinjured来表示，故答案为C。

36.A解析：此题考查反意疑问句的用法。主句为祈使句，因此其反意疑问句用willyou。

37.A本题考查祈使句型：

【应试指导】句意：Mary，到这里来，其余的人待在原处。根据句子的结构可判断出这是个祈使句。所以要用动词原形开头。Mary在句中不是

主语，而是“呼语”。

38.B

39.D

40.C

41.B解析：encourage：鼓励、鼓舞；discourage：使泄气；prevent：阻止；ask：要求。根据句意只有选B。

42.A

43.C解析：句子的前半部分是主语从句，主语从句中的谓语动词时态应根据句意而定。

44.C

45.B

46.C

47.B解析：theeducationsystem是主语，谓语动词应用单数；thedesiredresults意为“期望的结果”。

48.C

49.D

50.C解析：本题考查倒装虚拟语气用法。本句是表示与将来事实相反，所以从句用wereto形式。句意为：如果他今天出发的话，他就会在星期五以前到达那里。

51.We’lltakeit

52.F

53.Whatdidyoudo/Howaboutyou/Howdidyouspendyourweekend

54.A

56.DSureyoucan这是有关学车路考的一段对话。

57.C

58.Areyoufree/Doyouhavetime

59.G

60.C56．答案为C

首先应读懂上文，后进行逻辑推理，选择填充词句。

上文意为“老板今天不在，我们搞一次聚会吧。”所填充词句意为“好主意。”

61.C解析：根据本文主题及空格所在句子中的并列连词or可知，此处应为相同概念的名词，uniform符合句意。clothing“衣服的总称”；costume“服装”；cloth“布匹”。

62.C解析：读懂全句可知，此处需填一个名词，以便构成相当于中文“大量地”这一短语。在英文中，inalargenumber，inabigamount，inlargeamounts，inlargenumbers都可以用于表达以上意思。在所给的选项中，只有numbers符合条件。

63.D母亲让男孩把叔叔找来共进晚餐。

64.B此句意为：让你的孩子得到他应得的分数。acquire指获得，得到，一般接knowledge等，指通过自我努力获得。earn，应得，赢得，可接money，reputation等。

65.A士兵枪杀了他。shoot意为“射中，射死”；shootat意为“朝……开枪”。destroy意为“毁坏”；damage意为“损坏”；bury意为“埋葬”。

66.C

67.D解析：asitturnedout是惯用语，意为“实际上”。since，when和what都没有这种用法。

68.Dsomeone某人。这两句话的意思是：我们是该用手机、笔记本电脑、照相机等来满足我们的需求，但我们还可以在不想被打扰时关机。如果知道怎样使用手机，就可以避免它的弊端。

69.B

70.D解析：词义辨析题。distinguish不可选，它是“分辨”的意思。狗可以分辨无数的气味，人不行；discover：发现(原来已存在的东西，往往较抽象)；detect：探测；determine：决定。根据下文所说“即使被稀释到了百万分之一以下，人的鼻子依然能够探测得到”只有选D。
