The Ministry of Education has spared no efforts to bring on IT learning. What is its main aim? Is it to teach students how to learn the computer or is it meant to change the usual method of teaching in order to 1 students‘ strong interest in computers?

Teaching students computer knowledge and skills is different 2 giving class lessons through the use of computers. And schools are beginning to pay much attention to using computers to teach students. There is 3 about the fact that IT learning plays an important role as a new teaching tool in this day of technology. 4 ,views differ on whether the schools can achieve their targets, as success 5 whether they can make use of computers effectively.

Let‘s take the subject of Chinese as an example and see 6 difficulties the experts face in their IT management. At present,20 percent of lessons are given with the help of computers. In other words, in a period of 10 weeks, a Chinese-language teacher must spend two weeks to teach the subject 7 .In carrying out such a major policy as IT learning, the experts should know the 8 that different teachers teaching different subjects have different demands, thus making it 9 to see the policy through.

Some teachers, having already got some computer knowledge, will still be forced to 10 the training courses with those who have zero knowledge about computer.

Another problem is that new teachers may be sent to work in schools 11 IT learning has just started. All teachers—including the seniors who are very 12 in teaching, but who suddenly have no idea what to do when it comes to computers will have to 13 from the very beginning. They will become 14 and their teaching performances may be badly affected. The experts have found out how much of each subject is taught by computers in every school, and have 15 all schools to complete the given work. A hard-pressed teacher may put the daily teaching 16 or the courses onto the computer just to order the required time for IT learning and then 17 the usual way. Furthermore, he may leave school work to his 18 through the computer before class comes to an end in order to ―complete‖ his IT learning 19 . 20 the teaching of the Chinese language is concerned, do computer lessons really achieve the desire goals to raise the students‘ level of Chinese, pass on common values and so on? I am not so sure.

People do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 1 problem. They often accept the opinion or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking; they try to find a solution by trial and error. 2 ,when all of these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six 3 in analyzing a problem.

4 the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam‘s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must 5 that there is a problem with his bicycle.

Next the person must find the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must 6 the parts that are wrong.

Now the person must look for 7 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 8 solutions. For example, suppose Sam decides that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes. 9 ,he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 10 his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.

After 11 the problem, the person should have 12 suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example 13 ,his suggestions might be: tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.

In the end, one 14 seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the 15 idea comes quite 16 because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a 17 way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖) stuck to a brake. He 18 hits on the solution to his problem: he must 19 the brake.

Finally the solution is 20 .Sam does it and finds his bicycle works perfectly. In short he has solved the problem.

1【解析】 从上下文意思分析，此处表示下文将要向大家介绍一下我的learning experience。与大家共同分享，所以用share。say在此具有较强的干扰性，主要是受汉语的影响。【答案】 C

2【解析】 此处应根据句型结构去选择答案。be doing sth.when sth.else happened为英语的固定句型结构，表示―正在做某事，这时另一件事发生了‖的意思。在这一结构中，连词必须用when，或者用and at this time。【答案】 D

3【解析】 从第6题所在的句子意思分析，此处应表示―饿了‖。如果仅仅从下一句话的a rest area分析，不去全面理解的话，很容易误选B项。【答案】 C

4【解析】 从下一句的意思分析，此处应表示―高兴‖。 【答案】 A 5【解析】 从上文来看，此处就是到这里购买食物，解决―饥饿‖的问题。B

6【解析】 从上一句话的意思分析，―我挤进购买pizza的队列‖，说明不可能―立即买到‖。而上文又没有说明数量有限，所以A项也不对。此处应该说明一个过程。【答案】 B

7【解析】 此处应表示―吃到一半的时候才意识到没有付钱‖的意思。而thought表示―思考，认为‖的意思，容易受汉语影响。【答案】 A

8【解析】 我从里面走出来。leave out为―漏掉‖的意思。容易受leave的汉语意思影响而误选此项。【答案】 A

9【解析】 本题通过语言环境的暗示来考查短语动词的用法。四个动词都可和over连用构成短语，但意思不同。look over―快速地查看，查阅‖；get over―克服，熬过不愉快的事，从……中恢复过来‖；turn over―翻身，反复考虑‖；think over―考虑‖。根据意思，此处应表示受到良心的谴责，无法从中摆脱出来，故用get over。【答案】 B

10【解析】 此处根据本句及上下文意思应表示―付款‖。【答案】 B 11【解析】 此处根据句意应表示―不愿意‖的意思。【答案】 A 12 此处根据意思应表示不愿意做的原因―是因为担心别人会说‖。D 13【解析】 此处用for表示―交换‖的意思。【答案】 C

14【解析】 此处应联系第3和第4题所在的两句话的意思考虑。【答案】 C 15【解析】 此处是remind sb.of sth.的被动形式，表示―想起‖的意思。B 16【解析】 根据文章的第1句话的暗示得出答案。【答案】 A

17【解析】 此处表示―向……妥协‖的意思，故用give in短语。【答案】 D 18【解析】 根据上文的意思，那个pizza没有付钱，当然是―免费的‖。 A

19【解析】 此处表示―即使你摆脱了，你的良心也会陪伴着你‖。catch up with表示―追赶上‖的意思。【答案】 C

20【解析】 根据上一句的saying的意思判断，此处作者把自己比喻成了coward和hero时的心理感受。【答案】 D

A king cobra is an ugly-looking snake at any time.But when he is 1 and is crawling through the grass 2 your face,your hatred becomes terrific(骇人的).

Shells from the enemy‘s guns were bursting around us.I was 3 flat behind a big rock.The snake,too,was looking for a safe place.When he saw the rock,he 4 straight for it,and me.I didn‘t move, 5 he would pass by.

He didn‘t.

The cobra‘s head was 6 two feet of my face when he saw me.He 7 back a little,then lifted his head, 8 to strike…

The ride was long and hard.Riding over rough roads hurt my leg 9 .But it has been over an hour since the cobra struck,and I was still 10 .And life was sweet…

When we reached the field hospital,they 11 me into the operating room, 12 several cuts in my leg,and gave me some dope（麻药).From their 13 ,I could tell they were getting ready to cut off my leg.I begged them not to.

―Sir,‖I said to the oldest doctor,―I made up my mind 14 I was going to die,I would rather die than be sent home 15 pieces.‖

He was a pretty good man.He smiled and said they wouldn‘t take it off.

They did everything they could do for me.For sixty days my leg 16 rotted off.But eight months later I walked ashored at San Francisco.You 17 never know how good it was. 18

they gave me the Hurple Heart（紫心勋章).I laughed when the man 19 it on me.I told him that I wasn‘t wounded.I was 20 .

The professor‘s house,big and untidy,stood alone at one end of a huge garden.The place was totally uncared for,quite 1 and overgrown with all sorts of useless things.I 2 my way through bushes and tall weeds to the front door and rang the bell.

I was glad that I had found him.In twenty minutes he 3 me right on all the 4 that had puzzled me.I was on the 5 of leaving when I looked out of his study window and said,―You‘re very fond of gardening,I see.‖

―No,I‘m not,‖ he said.― 6 ,I love this garden,though.It‘s 7 I always wanted it to be.I never touch it at all.‖

―It could be made lovely.It 8 a pity to let all this ground to go to waste.But perhaps you don‘t 9 that way?‖ said I.

―I don‘t.I lived here when I was a child,and I had 10 of gardening then.It was my father‘s hobby,you see.Unfortunately,he wasn‘t 11 enough to do it himself.My brother and I did all of it between us year after year.There was one right way and many wrong ways.Each blade （叶片）of grass was an enemy to be 12 by hand,not just cut off.I‘ve spent a good part of life at work here.‖

―I see.You took a dislike to it,and now you‘re getting even!‖

―I dislike it.Then,of course,I didn‘t understand the 13 it had.It used to 14 me.It appeared in my dreams—a mistake here,something not quite straight here,the enemy showing its head in a place I was 15 to have cleaned.The work was too much.It seemed endless.The size of the place was itself a fight to a boy.‖

―And now it‘s yours,you‘re just letting it go to… ‖

― 16 ?‖ he said.―No,I don‘t agree with that.This garden and I are now the best friends.I like 17 it grow 18 its own way.I make no demands on it.I never disturb it,and it never disturbs me.It has 19 at last,and so have I.‖

―But the path is over grown.It‘s inconvenient for you,isn‘t it?‖

―That‘s part of my 20 ,‖he laughed.―You can go out the back way.The weeds are shorter there because they don‘t get the sun.‖

When I was a college student,I did a lot of traveling abroad.That was because a professor

1 me to do so.She said,―Now is the time for you to travel around the world, 2 your knowledge through actual experiences and have fun!‖ I 3 her. Since I started to work for a 4 company,however,I have done most of my traveling through the Internet.By

using the Internet,I have seen the 5 of many cities on my computer screen.And I have really made business 6 ,too.With the help of the Internet,I have also got 7 about food in different countries.

Therefore,I was beginning to feel that actual trips were 8 necessary when I happened to read a famous chef‘s（厨师）comment on the Internet.He said,―It is very difficult to have real Italian food in a foreign country,because we enjoy food and the 9 around us at the same time.So why don‘t you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian 10 ?‖ Those words reminded me of my 11 advice.As information technology 12 ,you might be able to do without making some real trips.But this also means that you will miss the various 13 you can get from traveling.

Today there are people who 14 direct communication with others and spend much of their time on the Internet.It is not surprising to see a group of people 15 not with each other but into their micro phones.It seems as if such people are 16 by an invisible wall.They seem to be losing out on a good chance to 17 and talk with other people.I do not think that they are taking good advantage of information technology.We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily 18 more fruitful.However,we should never let it 19 our time for face-to-face communication.Let‘s make use of information technology more 20 ,and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.

He makes sure you cross the street 52 and he watches until you enter your office building. Then he blows you a kiss, gives you a little salute and walks away.\Tears of happiness poured down Susan's cheeks. For 53 she couldn't physically see him, she had always felt Mark's presence. He had given her a gift more powerful than 54 , a gift she didn't need to see to 55 ——the gift of love that can bring light where there is darkness.

George Pickens had been making a wish daily as a worker at Central Bank.

All over the country banks were being 36 , George thought． 37 this bank? Didn't robbers hear of its four-million-dollar 38 ? Were they afraid of Mr．Ackerman, the old 39 guard, who hadn't 40 his gun in twenty-two years?

Of course George had a (an) 41 for wanting the bank to be robbed． 42 , he couldn't simply take bills that were under his 43 all day long．So he had thought of another 44 to get them．His plan was 45 ．It went like this:

And if Bank Teller B gives Bank Robber A a certain sum of money…

What is to prevent Bank Teller B from 46 all the money left and 47 that it was taken away by Bank Robber A?

―This is a holdup,‖ the man said 52 ．He took a gun from his pocket．The 53 made a small sound．―You!‖ the bank robber said, ―Lie down on the floor!‖ Mr．Ackerman lay down．The robber stepped 54 to Georges cage. ―All right,‖ he said．―Hand it over.‖

―Yes, sir,‖ George reached into his drawer and took all the bills from the top part-close to six thousand dollars．He passed them through the window．The robber took them, put them into his pocket, and 55 to leave.

Therefore, I was beginning to feel that actual trips were __43__ necessary when I happened to read a famous chef‘s（厨师）comment on the Internet. He said, ―It is very different to have real Italian food in a foreign country, because we enjoy food and the __44__ around us at the same time. So why don‘t you fly over to Italy and enjoy real Italian __45___?‖ Those words reminded me of my __46_ advice. As information technology __47__, you might be able to do without making some real trips. But this also means that you will miss the various __48_ you can get from traveling.

Today there are people who _ 49__ direct communication with others and spend much of their time on the Internet. It is not surprising to see a group of people __50___ not with each other but into their microphones. It seems as if such people are _51__ by an invisible wall. They seem to be losing out on a good chance to _52__ and talk with other people. I do not think that they are taking good advantage of information technology. We should use information technology as a tool to make our daily _53_ more fruitful. However, we should never let it _54__ our time for face-to-face communication. Let‘s make use of information technology more _55__, and have great fun in experiencing the actual world.

I remember when she read the letter I became frightened;I could _41_ us starving to death and all sorts of things that could come to a child‘s _42__. My mother did not appear to be worried, __43_, and seemed to be quite_44__ about the matter. Mother said God would not_45__ her, that he never had. I couldn‘t see how God was going to help us__46__ this old sewing machine. The day the men were to come for our only means of __47__, there was a knock at the kitchen door. I was __48_ , for I was sure it was those dreaded men. _49__, a nicely dressed man stood at our door with a darling baby in his arms.

He asked my mother if she __50__ Mrs Hill. When she said she was ,he said ―I‘m in __51__ this moring and I am told that you are an honest and wonderful woman. My __52__was rushed to the hospital this morning and__53__we have no relatives here, and I must open my dentist office, I have nowhere to __54__my baby.

―Down-to-earth‖ means someone or something that is honest, practical and easy to deal with. It is 1 to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to and 2 other people as equals. A down-to-earth person is just the 3 of someone who acts important and proud. Down-to-earth persons 4 be important members of society, of course. 5 they do not let their importance ―go to their heads‖. They do not 6 themselves to be better persons than others of less importance. Someone who is filled with his own importance and pride, often without cause, is 7 to have ―his nose in the air‖. There is 8 way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth.

Americans 9 another expression that means almost the same as ―down-to-earth‖. The expression is ―both-feet-on-the-ground‖. Someone with both-feet-on-the-ground is a person with a good 10 of reality. He 11 what is called ―common sense‖. He may have 12 , but he does not allow them to 13 his knowledge of what is real.

The opposite kind of 14 is one who has his ―head-in-the-clouds‖. A man with his-head-in-the-clouds is a dreamer whose 15 is not in the real world.

16 , such a dreamer can be brought back to earth. 17 words from a teacher can usually bring a day-dreaming student down-to-earth.

Usually, the person who is down-to-earth is very 18 to have both feet on-the –ground.

19 we have both our feet on-the –ground, when we are down-to-earth, we act honestly and openly 20 others. Our lives are like the ground below us, solid and strong.

There is a workman in America who earns as much as a company director. He is Max Quarterman, a thirty-year-old plasterer (泥瓦匠).

Max lives in an upper middle-class housing estate. His 1 are mostly bank managers, business executives, airline pilots and the 2 , but Max's seven-bedroom house — 3 $ 80,000 — is the largest in the area. 4 outside the house are Max's $ 7000 sports car and his wife's Morris Mini. 5 is a 150 colour TV set and the family's 6 — a circular bath with gold-plated taps. There are also many labour－saving 7 and luxury (豪华) furniture.

How can a plasterer 8 all this? The answer, says Max, is hard work. In partnership with another plasterer, Max 9 contract plastering jobs for a firm. The owner of the firm 10 them as human machines, the best and quickest in the 11 , who can do as much in two days as 12 two-man team can in two weeks.

How do they 13 it? Not by working overtime. They work a normal eight-hour day, five days a week. The secret 14 in Max's hod (桶) in which he carries the plaster to the site of the job. Max's is a superhod — it contains double the usual 15 of plaster, and Max, a strong fellow, runs when he carries it. More time is thus 16 to get on with the plastering. Besides, 17 man wastes time smoking, and they 18 their lunch

1【解析】 句子的主语是IT learning(即：using computers to teach students)，IT learning是教师的教学行为，不可能show students‘ strong interest in computers，只能是教师用计算机辅助教学与学生对计算机的浓厚兴趣相一致，故用match（find sth.like or suitable for use with相称，相配)。【答案】 C

2【解析】 different与from搭配，在这里表示―教学生有关计算机的知识技能与通过使用计算机辅助教学是不同的两件事‖。【答案】 D

3【解析】 作者先是肯定了在科技时代，信息技术作为新的教学工具起着重要作用这一事实，故用no doubt。【答案】 B

4【解析】 接着，用however表示转折，提出不同看法：学校能否成功地达到目标取决于他们是否能有效地使用计算机辅助教学。【答案】 A

5【解析】 depend on：依靠；lead to：导致；result in：造成、引起；believe in：信赖，A项符合文意。【答案】 A

6【解析】 作者以中文教学为例，表明专家们在他们IT教学管理中面临着怎样的困难。what在此作连接代词，修饰difficulties，引导一个宾语从句作see的宾语。【答案】 C

7【解析】 据文意，教师用计算机辅助教学是一种新的教学方法。【答案】 D

8【解析】 同位语从句中所表达的内容(执教不同学科的老师有不同的要求)是一个事实。【答案】 A 9老师教的学科不同，要求不同，故使这一政策很难进行到底。【答案】 C

10【解析】 training course应该是attend，即根据上述政策，懂得计算机知识的教师也得去参加计算机教学的培训课程。【答案】 D

11【解析】 此处用where引导一个定语从句，作school的定语，where在从句中充当地点状语。【答案】 C

12【解析】 此处指在教学中有经验的老教师。【答案】 D

13【解析】 有经验的老教师面对用计算机进行教学无所适从，也得从头开始。【答案】 B 14【解析】 面对新的难题，他们感到灰心，乃至他们的教学工作也受到不好的影响。【答案】 B 15【解析】 作为expert，自然应该是instruct(指导)学校去完成交给的工作(即IT learning)。【答案】 D 16【解析】 performances在这里是指―教学工作‖。【答案】 D

17作者表明：―有的教师迫于压力，将日常教学工作通过计算机来进行，是为了服从IT teaching所规定的时间要求，而后又用老办法上课。‖【答案】 B

18从四个选项中可以判断，A、B、C三项都不是老师的做法。【答案】 D

19【解析】 再者，有的教师为了完成他的IT教学任务，课外作业也让学生在课堂上通过计算机去做。【答案】 C

20【解析】 as far as常与be concerned搭配，表示―就……而言‖。【答案】 D

（2）

1【解析】 本题考查副词词义辨析及学生依据语境选用恰当副词的能力。从后面的句子可以知道Tim Becker去买东西时不只是从家到商店直来直去，而是还要在居民区里巡视，所以应选用副词just。【答案】 C

2【解析】 本题考查学生根据上下文判断并选择恰当副词来修饰动词的能力。学生此处要考虑Tim是怎样在居民区巡视的，从整篇文章可以看出，Tim对居民区的保卫工作很负责任，同时下面一句也讲到他对发生的任何可疑情况都很注意，所以可以判定Tim总是―looks carefully‖，而不是其他。【答案】 A

3【解析】 本题考查考生根据上下文对所给形容词做出判断选择的能力。Tim是为了社区安全进行巡视，应注意一些可疑情况，且后面举的例子也是一些反常情况，属于―unusual‖。【答案】 B

4【解析】 本题考查学生根据上下文进行判断选择的能力，前面提到的―anything unusual‖为本题设立了前提，那么选A、B、C，即―拉着窗帘的窗户、开着的窗户、旧的窗户‖都不属于―unusual‖，而选择D，―打破的窗户‖应为最佳答案。【答案】 D

5【解析】 本题考查动词词意的辨析。Tim与watch group的关系应是其中的一个成员，因此应选―belong to，属于‖。【答案】 B

6 本题考查根据上下文做出判断及动词词意的辨析。此题的提示在后面一句，即―…Tim gets together with…‖，所以本句应理解为―社区巡视组的成员每月的第三个星期三会面一次。‖ 【答案】 A

7本题考查学生对文章的准确理解并做出判断的能力。句中―that‖一词对此题的选择至关重要，that指―每月第三个星期三会面‖，接下来应理解为―那是Tim和其他成员交流讨论情况的时间‖。【答案】 C

8 本题考查学生词意辨析和根据上下文进行判断的能力。如果学生能知道四个名词的意思，此题应该比较容易。根据文章的整体意思，显然他们讨论的是社区安全问题。【答案】 D

9 本题考查学生动词词意辨析及对句子的准确理解的能力。根据文章意思，巡视组应是帮助警察维护社区的安全，即―keep…safe‖，此题的干扰项是D，如果用―protect，保护‖，虽然意思也正确，但不需要句子后面的safe，两个词意思重复。【答案】 A

10 本题考查学生对句子的准确理解及判断的能力。此题的干扰项是B，如果选B，意思便是Tim的居住区，而Tina（注意Tina是女的）是这个巡视组的组长，也应住在此居民区，所以应该用―their，他们的居民区‖。【答案】 C

11【解析】 本题考查学生对一些句型的掌握及句意的理解。本句的意思是―人们好像觉得犯罪（案件）只是发生在别人身上，而不是发生在他们自己身上‖。此处承前面的动词happen，因此应该选―to‖。【答案】

D

12【解析】 本题考查学生对词意的辨析及阅读理解能力。此句的意思是―我认为任何人都没有权力去偷别人的东西或是使得别人坐在家都觉得不安全。‖这里选用―任何人都没有机会／勇气／想法 ……‖都是不合适的。【答案】 A

13【解析】 本题考查根据上下文判断句意。如果有被偷窃的可能，人们或许也会感到不幸、失望或泄气，但本篇文章讲的是关于社区安全，所以选择感到不安全，更符合上下文的意思。【答案】 B

14【解析】 本题考查学生对一些常用动词短语的掌握。set out意为―出发‖，let out意为―发出‖，hold out意为―举出‖，look out意为―小心‖。根据上下文判断，D为正确答案。【答案】 D

15【解析】 本题考查动词词意辨析及在具体语境中的使用。根据上下文，最佳选择应是watch，意为―巡视、留意（彼此的家）‖，而不是―介意‖―进入‖或―经营‖（彼此的家）。【答案】 C

16【解析】 本题考查的是一组名词的词意辨析。后面的―four or five of us‖决定了应是―a group of，一小组／一小队‖，而不是―a set of，一套‖―a number of，若干个‖或―a crowd of，一大群‖。【答案】 A

17【解析】 本题考查学生根据上下文进行推理判断的能力。此题的提示在后面一句―For example，if…，we report to the police.‖这里的―For example‖即把本题句子的内容具体化了，所以应选择―call the police‖，而不是其他。【答案】 B

18因为―we report to the police‖，所以应是出现一些不良现象或犯罪情况，如：―someone destroying poverty‖，因此应选择―look for trouble‖，选项B的意思是―负担‖，不合适。【答案】 D

19【解析】 本题考查学生对文章的理解能力和根据上下文进行判断的能力。根据上下文，特别是后面一句中―agree‖一词，说明Alex和她丈夫的观点是一致的，因此19、20两题相互提示、相互补充，那么在19题中应理解为―巡视小组对减少犯罪有很大帮助‖，而不是―产生很多（A）‖―发现很多（B）‖，或―得到很多（C）‖。【答案】 D

20【解析】 本题考查学生根据上下文进行推理判断的能力。前面讲到巡视小组对控制犯罪帮助很大，此处接着阐述这一观点，即―警察（在维护治安中）很重要，但他们不可能做好一切。‖ 【答案】 B

（3）

1【解析】 从上文的提示―try to remember a solution from the last time‖，表明人们一旦遇上类似的问题，首先想到的是上次碰到这类问题的解决办法。只有问题―类似‖，才会想到―上一次‖的办法。【答案】 C

2【解析】 下文用however表示转折，表明作者观点：有时靠老办法往往不灵，于是人们便开始分析问题，寻找新的解决途径。【答案】 D

3【解析】 从下文的列举看，作者讲的是解决问题的六个阶段，且层层深入(stage：a period in a course of events)，而不是在阐述解决问题的六个办法、条件、顺序。【答案】 C

4【解析】 下文next，finally等表明作者在列举分析问题、解决问题的几个步骤，故填first(首先)，与下文呼应。【答案】 A

5【解析】 作为分析的第一步，Sam必须查看自行车的毛病出在哪儿。see在此的含义是：examine or recognize by looking。【答案】 D

6【解析】 determine在这里意为―断定、确定‖的意思，因为只有断定哪个部分有问题，才会找到针对性的解决办法。【答案】 B

7【解析】 下文he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes，talked to his friends at the bike shop，表明Sam是在查找有关自行车修理的资料和信息。【答案】 D

8【解析】 此时的解决方案尚未确定，故只能是possible solutions，下文a possible solution有暗示。【答案】 A

9【解析】 at this time表示Sam断定车闸出了毛病的同时即查找修理车闸的资料。【答案】 D 10【解析】 此处用talk to表明Sam与自行车店的朋友通过交谈了解修理自行车车闸的有关资料、信息。【答案】 B

11上文Sam所做的一切均属于studying(学习、研究)的行为。【答案】 D

12【解析】 下文所举的tighten or loosen the brakes；buy new brakes and change the old ones表明此处应填several。【答案】 C

13【解析】 作者再次以Sam修自行车为例，说明确定问题所在之后如何解决问题，有一些意见、建议可供选择。【答案】 B

14【解析】 上文表明有一些建议可供选择，但最终导致解决问题似乎只有其中的一条。【答案】 A 15从下文举例看，有时导致解决问题最后的主意纯属意外。【答案】 C

16【解析】 上文提到Sam解决自行车车闸问题有几条建议可供选择：拧紧或放松车闸，买新车闸，更换旧车闸，这时Sam突然发现车闸不灵的原因是一块口香糖将车闸粘住了，最终导致解决问题的办法便是意料之外了。【答案】 A

17【解析】 车闸问题的意外发现使Sam立即采取了完全不同的解决办法(既非拧紧或放松车闸，亦非更换车闸)。【答案】 B

18发现了问题的症结所在，解决问题便当机立断，毫不迟疑。【答案】 D 19【解析】 既然口香糖粘住车闸，只需清洗干净就可解决问题。【答案】 A 20 Sam的解决办法经过―检验(test)‖获得了成功，他的问题解决了。【C】

（4）

1四个选项均为名词，都可以填入空白处作句子的主语，但从该段叙述的多年来人们关于生存在喜马拉雅山上的雪人的传说及下文Over the years,the story of the Yetis has continued.和These days,only a few people continue to take the story of the Abominable Snowman seriously.就不难看出此空应填story。【答案】 B

2【解析】 短文大部分描述的是多年来人们对于世界最高峰——珠穆朗玛峰上有关雪人存在的传说、考察和猜想，文中Climbers in the 1920s reported finding marks like those of human feet high up on the side of Mount Everest及In 1916,Eric Shipton took photographs of a set of tracks in the snow of Everest.等信息，则清楚地说明了此空应填many years。【答案】 Ｄ

3【解析】 四个选项的短语动词所表达的意思不同。hear from接到……的信；cared for关心、照顾、喜欢；know of知道，听说（不一定见过或认识）；read about 谈到，获悉。短文第二段中they said that they had 4 caught Yetis on two occasions 5 none has ever been produced as evidence（证据)说明了人们对珠穆朗玛峰上雪人的存在只不过是听说而已，却拿不出任何证据，自然最佳答案应该选Ｃ了。【答案】 Ｃ

4【解析】 上文20世纪20年代的登山者报告，在珠穆朗玛峰坡上发现了像人脚印一样的足迹。当地人听说过这种动物并给其起名为―雪人‖。这里they said that they had caught Yetis on two occasions 是当地人叙述雪人存在的一种更为真实的情况，因此此空应填副词even,意思是―甚至‖，用来加强语气，强调谓语动词，故最佳答案选A。【答案】 A

5【解析】 主句中叙述了they had even caught Yetis on two occasions,从句none has ever been produced as evidence则否定了上述情况的真实性，表示的是让步意义，故此空应填though,引导一个让步状语从句。【答案】 B

6【解析】 四个选项的过去分词都可以和助动词has构成现在完成时态，从单句看很难选择。短文第二段叙述了Climbers in the 1920s reported finding marks like those of human feet high up on the side of Mount Everest及下文In 1916,Eric Shipton took photographs of a set of tracks in the snow of Everest则说明了珠穆朗玛峰上雪人故事的发展情况，故此空应填 continued。【答案】 D

7【解析】 根据四个选项的副词意思判断，如果填入前三个，则在某种程度上肯定了Eric Shipton 在珠穆朗玛峰雪地里所拍摄的足迹是猴子或熊留下的。这与下文the Abominable snowman might really exist.所表达的意思不符，所以此空只能填 simply。【答案】 D

8【解析】 四个选项均为动词的过去式，但只有felt 意为―感到‖，不仅表示感官知觉，还表示情感或想法，且能与前一个谓语动词believed 所表达的意思相吻合。两个并列的谓语动词后各带一个宾语从句，叙述了Shipton由拍照珠穆朗玛峰雪地里的足迹联想到雪人存在的可能性，故C为最佳选项。【答案】 C

9【解析】 四个选项所表达的意思不同:exist 存在；escape逃跑；disappear消失；return返回。由前一

个宾语从句that they were not simply the tracks of the a monkey or bear可以判断出此空应填exist,即Shipton 认为在珠穆朗玛峰上，雪人很可能真正存在。【答案】 A

10【解析】 短文第二段叙述了Climbers in the 1920s reported finding marks like those of human feet high up on the side of Mount Everest。我们再根据该空所在段的首句Further efforts have been made to find out about Yetis及下文Most believe the footprints are nothing more than ordinary animal tracks 就可以判断出此空应填more,说明人们在弄清雪人真相的努力中，所发现的唯一东西仅仅是更多的脚印，故此空应填more。【答案】 B

11【解析】 由下文However,in 1964,a Russian scientist said that the Abominable Snowman was real 可以推测出，此空应填形容词ordinary,说明大多数人认为，他们发现的更多的脚印，只不过是普通动物的足迹。【答案】 C

12． 此句which 引导的非限制性定语从句中，含有一个原因状语从句。As they melted and refroze in the snow清楚地阐述人们发现的更多的脚印要比普通的动物足迹大的原因。填形容词large,在定语从句中作主语补足语。【答案】 B

13【解析】 空白后1964年，俄罗斯科学家说的the Abominable Snowman was real and was a remaining link with the prehistoric humans与上句说的大部分人相信脚印只不过是普通动物的足迹，不承认雪人的存在所表示的是转折关系，故此空应填副词However,表转折。答案】 D

14【解析】 前句叙述了Most believe the footprints are nothing more than ordinary animal tracks,我们再根据However所表示的转折意义，就不难判断出此空应填形容词real。一位俄国科学家认为雪人是真的。【答案】 B

15【解析】 短文第二段叙述了登山者报告，发现了在珠穆朗玛峰坡有像人脚印的足迹，当地人把这种动物称之为雪人，他们还说甚至于两次捉到了雪人，事实是none has ever been produced as evidence。短文第四段又叙述了1964年，一位俄国科学家说雪人是真的，并且与史前的人类继续存在着联系。由but所表示的转折意义及空白后no evidence has ever actually been produced可以判断出，此空应填副词again,在句中作插入语，说明俄罗斯科学家所说的雪人的存在，又一次没有得到真实存在的证据。【答案】 C

16【解析】 四个选项的副词填在句中作状语修饰谓语动词语法都正确，但是根据上文中 一句肯定了雪人的存在，以及根据空白所在句子中but所表示的转折意义和again 一词对雪人存在证据的再次否定，就不难判断出此空应填actually。【答案】 B

17【解析】 上文叙述了登山者及当地人认为珠穆朗玛峰雪人的存在，并对弄清雪人的真实情况作了进一步的努力，还有一些外国人也认为雪人是真的，但都只不过是传说和猜测而已，谁也拿不出真凭实据。我们再根据空白前的语境，可以体会出当今人们对有关雪人的故事已经冷淡下来，仅有很少的人认真对待此事，故此空应填副词seriously,意为―严肃地‖―认真地‖。【答案】 C

18【解析】 四个选项均为―动词+介词‖构成的短语动词，其后都能跟动名词作宾语，填在句中语法都正确，但它们所表达的意义都不同：succeed in做成某事； insist on坚持；depend on依靠；join in参加。由该句的主句they may face a real problem:Would they put it in a zoo or give it a room in a hotel?可以推断出，条件状语从句所假定的是成功地捉住了雪人，无疑答案应选A。【答案】 A

19【解析】 四个选项的名词填入句中作宾语语法都正确，但短文末句Would they put it in a zoo or give it a room in a hotel？则清楚地告诉我们，究竟把雪人放在何处？这是捉住雪人的人们所面临的一个难以抉择的真实问题，故此空应填problem。【答案】 D

20【解析】 四个选项均为表示处所的名词，填入哪个选项正确很难做出抉择。我们读了短文第一段就可以知道，人们对这种被认为生活在世界最高山峰珠穆朗玛峰的所谓雪人，究竟属于人类还是属于动物还没有明确地划分出来。如果―雪人‖划归人类，应该give it a room in a hotel;如果把―雪人‖划归动物，自然应该放到动物园里去生活了，故此空应填zoo。【答案】 A

37．D

38．B 一开始―我‖可以自由打篮球，因为我只是个小孩，没有人会介意。

39．A 与上文it was always the boys who played basketball形成对照，应填only，表示人们对男女生学校活

动的性别刻板化印象。

40．C 在家里父母也不让―我‖打篮球．A项搭配不对。 41．D

42．D 甚至当―我‖去和朋友们打篮球时，男孩们也盯着―我‖看(不理解)，就好像―我‖是个外星人似的。用

stare at表示―盯着‖。glare指―怒视‖，不妥。glance指―瞥一眼‖。根据语境，文中要表达的意息应是其他男孩不解地盯着自己。

43．B 学校不谁、家庭不让、男孩不理解使―我‖打篮球的梦想根本无法实现，―我‖感到心情沮丧。feel down

引申为―感觉沮丧的‖。

44．C 下文交待―我‖新交的朋友鼓励―我‖重新回到篮球场，这一转机在当时是无法预料的，故填

Unexpectedly．

45．A 他们鼓励―我‘回到篮球场。 46．B 走你自己的路，让别人去说吧。

47．A 本文话题是篮球与女生，因此该空应填basketball。 48．D 在朋友们的鼓励与引导下，自信、激情又回到―我‖心中。 49．C

50．B 篮球已变成―我‖生命的一部分。

51．C 通过篮球，我不但感到幸福、自信，而且还学到很多东西。 52．A ―我‖逐渐意识到生活就像打篮球。 53．B

54．C 你首先应该有一个目标，然后应自信，并且不停地走下去。

55．B 这个格言能够表达―我‖对篮球的强烈感情。．C 上文silently watch和really envied暗示了该空应填never．下文介绍的成长过程中―我‖无法享受对篮球的爱也是选择线索。
