B．for C．while D．because 解析根据上文“Ihadabadhabitofskippingtothelastpagesofabook.”可推知，当一本书读到一半时，作者就想要知道结局是怎么样的。while“在……期间，当……的时候”，符合语境。 答案C2．A.confused B．annoyed C．delighted D．embarrassed 解析根据下文“Thenonedaymydaughtertoldmeinanger”可知，作者的这个坏习惯激怒了(annoyed)很多人。 答案B3．A.usually B．obviously C．accidentally D．finally 解析根据上文提到“first...then...”可知，作者最后(finally)甚至惹恼了自己的女儿。 答案D4．A.impatience B．misunderstanding C．disappointment D．disagreement 解析作者的“没耐心”不但表现在自己看书上，而且对别人读的书也是如此。 答案A5．A.saying B．reading C．doing D．watching 解析参见上题解析。 答案B6．A.page B．copy C．chapter D．edition 解析根据倒数第二段中的“‘liveonedayatatime'”及最后一段中的“Eachofushasto__20__thebookoflifelinebyline”可知，女儿希望父亲看书时能像别人一样一页一页地看下去。 答案A7．A.contribute B．devote C．apply D．limit 解析根据下文中的“Ialsotriedtoskipaheadinmyownlife”可知，作者的坏习惯不只局限(limit)在看书方面，也体现在他的生活上。故选D项。 答案D8．A.try B．figure C．let D．turn 解析作者在生活中喜欢跳跃前进，总是试图搞清楚从现在起未来几个月甚至几年之后要做的事情，而不是享受现在的每一天，故选B。figureout“弄懂，搞清楚”。 答案B9．A.onthepartof B．otherthan C．insteadof D．onthebasisof 解析参见上题解析。insteadof“代替，而不是”。 答案C10．A.book B．river C．picture D．play 解析根据空后的“thatIhadmanypages__11__togo”可知，这里作者将生活比作了一本书。 答案A11．A.forgotten B．left C．kept D．regretted 解析作者人生的这本书还没写完，还“剩下”很多页要写。 答案B12．A.feelings B．beginning C．ending D．comments 解析根据前文可知，作者在看书时总喜欢看到一半就想知道结尾，而对于自己人生的这本书，虽然还没有写完，但作者已迫不及待想要写出结局。故选C项。 答案C13．A.consciously B．strangely C．foolishly D．critically 解析根据下文“Life，__14__，doesn'tworklikethat.”可推知，作者总是在每一个潜在的问题还没发生时就尝试解决它，所以这是愚蠢的。 答案C14．A.otherwise B．moreover C．therefore D．however 解析该空承接上文，表示转折，“然而，生活并不像我们想象的那样运转”，故选D项。 答案D15．A.surprise B．cheat C．satisfy D．frighten 解析从下文中的“youneverknowwhatnewproblems，changesoropportunitieseachnewdaywill__16__”可知，生活总是使我们感到很惊讶。答案A16．A.make B．bring C．take D．award 解析生活中的每个新的一天总会给我们带来(bring)不同的问题、改变和机会。 答案B17．A.present B．futureC．memory D．dream 解析根据上文，作者在生活中总是想要搞清楚未来几个月甚至几年的事情，即生活在“未来”，由此可推断答案为B。 答案B18．A.cheered B．cried C．lost D．smiled 解析此时作者已经明白了生活要一天天地过，所以他释然地笑了。 答案D19．A.exciting B．hopeful C．favorite D．right 解析当内心的声音提醒作者要过好每一天时，他把他人生的这本书翻回到正确的(right)那一页。 答案D20．A.write B．review C．explain D．translate 解析根据上文中的“towritethe__12__ofithalfwaythrough”可知答案。

A．stopthedolphin­killing B．winaninternationalaward C．supportGreenpeace'sefforts D．makeTaijiwell­knownintheworld 解析文章第一段告诉了我们“AllRicOBarrywantsistostopthedolphin­killing”，结合他的电影TheCove的内容可以看出，RicOBarry制作这部电影的目的就是想阻止世界上的海豚杀戮行为。 答案A22．WhatistheresponsetoTheCoveontheJapaneseside?

A．Feelingguiltyforkillingdolphins. B．Protectingthemselvesagainstcriticism. C．Attackingthoseagainstdolphin­killing. D．Makingthedeterminationtochange. 解析根据后面的seeing和句子可知，他们对自己的行为进行了辩解，认为自己的这种捕杀海豚的行为是一种诚实的谋生方式，也就是说，他们是在为自己的这一血腥行为进行辩解。因此，该词应意为“保护自己免受批评”。故选B。 答案B24．Whatcanweinferfromthepassage? A．ManypeopleinJapanhaveseenTheCoveinthecinema. B．TheCovehasnotinfluencedJapan'sinternationalimage. C．Taiji'sdolphin­killingindustryhasbeenseriouslydamaged. D．TheCovehasbroughtinternationalattentiontodolphin­killing. 解析文章倒数第四段提到澳大利亚的一个城市也因为这部电影(becauseofthemovie)终止了和日本捕杀海豚的城市Taiji之间的友好关系。由此可以推断，这部电影已经引起了国际上对捕杀海豚行为的关注。故选D。 答案DⅢ.书面表达假如你是李华，你的美国笔友Tom因为要参加SAT考试而深感焦虑，发来电子邮件向你征求建议。请你根据以下要点用英语给Tom写一封电子邮件答复。提示：1.保持乐观心态；2.制定学习计划；3.其他。注意：1.词数100左右；2．条理清晰，逻辑性强，具有说服力；3．首句已给出，不计入总词数。DearTom，I'mgladtoreceiveyouremailandIhavelearnedthatyou'reanxiousaboutthecomingSAT.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【范文赏读】Dear_Tom，I'm_glad_to_receive_your_email_and_I_have_learned_that_you're_anxious_about_the_comin
