你希望去国外某大学深造，写信到该校去询问食宿、收费及入学要求。

参考答案

1.B解析：参见第一段。

2.C根据文中第一段第二句的提示，可知REM一晚上发生四到五次。

3.D

4.B解析：因为Larry有机会出演一个角色，这是他通往成功的开始。

5.B第一段第三句中的“notentirelytrue”意为“不完全正确”，也就是B项内容。“tosomedegree，itistrue．”意为“在某种程度上，它是真的”。

6.C解析：第1段2至3行点明美国社会的老龄化转型，故选C。

7.B本题属细节信息归纳推理型。其中关键词为EdmundHalleyfiguredout．．．orbit。根据第4段第4句可以看出这三次出现的彗星实为同一彗星，只是出现的时间不同而已。故B项是正确答案。

8.B解析：由第一段的最后一句“…mostofushavebeenbroughtuptoeatcertainfoodsandwesticktothemallourlives.”可知B为正确答案。

9.A解析：由句子“Althoughcoldsarerarelydangerous,…”可知，A是错误的说法。

10.C解析：见原文最后一段。1909年，马可尼与德国科学家分享了诺贝尔奖。

11.B根据上下文语境可推出句意为：“你认为他会以何种方式来买它们呢?”how在此作状语，符合语境。

12.A

13.D解析：有些人以为他们也在选举自己的总统。事实上他们选举的不是总统。再重申一下，他们选举的是代表。而这些被选出来的代表叫选举人。他们是选举团的成员。

14.B

15.B首先判断此处缺少的是一个定语。参考上文及该句中thatis这一短语可知，此处应填which一词。

16.C从上文可知：“他需要钉子，而售货员拿给他锤子”，他理应摇头，故应选C项。

17.D解析：A选项expected的意思是“预料，期待”，B选项realized的意思是“实现，意识到”，C选项paid的意思是“支付”，D选项enjoyed的意思是“从……获得乐趣”。按句意，应选D。

18.B根据Britishcolonies可推测应表示各种“人口”。

19.B

20.B天空中的星星非常漂亮，Ralph想伸出手来触摸一下。只有B项正确。get“得到”；hit“击，碰，撞”；knock“敲”。

21.A

22.B

23.A比is+形容词+of+名词/代词+不定式，of后的名词/代词为不定式的动作发出者。

24.C解析：本题测试固定句型。such．．．that．．．意为“如此……以至于……”，表示一种结果。本句大意为：他养了一条这么凶的狗以致无人敢接近他的房子。

25.D本题考虚拟语气在Wouldrather所接从句中的用法，即“Wouldrather+thatsb.didsth,"，故D项正确。本句大意为：说实话，我宁愿你与该案无关。

26.A解析：shieldsb.fromsth．意为“保护某人不受某物的伤害”。

27.A考查固定词组。Hadbetterdosth．最好做某事。选项A是正确的。句意：你最好别一个人到那儿去。

28.C解析：spoilt表“宠坏了的”。

29.B解析：Totheairport是比较固定的用法，airport前加定冠词。选项B是正确的。句子大意：你准备好了我就送你去机场。

30.A解析：一般条件句，对事实的估计。主句用将来时，条件从句用一般现在时。选项A是正确的。

31.DD解析：whataboutourfriendlinessandattitude

32.FF解析：Iamsurewewillhaveagreattime

33.Onepossibleversion:
