You' 11 get up and turn on the computer ewspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You' 11 even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions from communication experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based tnedia and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of news events.Most of the technology is available(可用的) now, but convincing(说服) more people that they don' t need paper to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance to computer newspapers may be stronger from within journalism.Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next gegeration realize that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable.Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replace newsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial(财经的) interests in the paper industry.{TS} What is the best title for this passage?

A. Computer Newspapers Are Well Liked

B. Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on Computer C. Newspapers Are out of Fashion

(5)We can infer from the passage that __________ A. all technological changes are good

B. all technologies will eventually replace old ones C. new technologies will eventually replace old ones

D. traditional newspapers are here to stay for another century

(6)阅读Text 2,回答{TSE}题\by the side of the road. In some countries, because the man realizes that the traveler is tired and eager to get to his destination( 目的地), he will politely say \is more encouraging, gentler, and therefore the wanted answer. So the American drives through the night, getting more and more angry, feeling \for obviously he must have known the distance quite well.Had conditions been turned over, the American would have felt he was \the driver if he had said the next town was close when he knew it was really 15 miles further on.

的)to the weary driver, he would say \driver might be d~sappointed, but he would know what to expect.Whether to be correct or polite leads to many misunderstandings between people of different cultures.

(10)阅读Text 3,回答{TSE}题Movies are the most popular form of entertainment( 娱乐 ) for millions of Americans. They go to the movies to escape their normal everyday existence and to experience a life more exciting than their own. They may choose to see a particular film because they like the actors or because they have heard the film has a good story. But the main reason why people go to the movies is to escape. Sitting in a dark theater, watching the images on the screen, they enter another world that is real to them. They become involved in the lives of the characters in the movie, and for two hours,they forget all about their own problems. They are in a dream world where things often appear to be more romantic and beautiful than in real life.The biggest \

(13)阅读Text 4,回答{TSE}题Robert Spring, a 19th century forger(伪造者), did well in his job that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1813 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he made some money by selling his small but real collection of early US autographs( 亲笔签名 ). Discovering his ability at copying handwriting, he began to learn the signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin and write them on the title pages of old books. To reduce the chance of being discovered, he sent his works to England and Canada for sale.Forgers have a difficult time selling their products. A forger can' t go to a respectable buyer but must deal with people who don' t have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways to make their works look real. For example, they buy old books to use the aged paper of the title page, and they treat paper and ink with chemicals.After the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the southern states, so, Spring invented a respectable lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General \Wall\of letters belonging to her famous-father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. All this activity did not prevent Spring dying in poverty.{TS}Why did Spring sell his false autographs in England and Canada?

A. There was a greater demand there than in America.

(4) :C

C【解析】本题考查介词的辨析。but和exCept指 “排除之外,不包括在内”;besides意为“除?之外,而且,还有”;beside指“在?旁边”。

(5) :D

D【解析】本题考查情态动词表示推测的用法。推测已经发生过的事情,用must have done。forget to do sth.表示忘记去做某事(事情没有做);forget doing sth.表示忘记做过某事(事

情已做)。第一句指出,“这里有一股难闻的气味”,由此推知,“我”一定是“忘了”关煤气了。

(6) :D D【解析】本题考查疑问副词搭配和动词辨析。how often提问频率,多长时间一次;how long提问时间或距离长度;borrow为非延续性动词,keep是延续性动词。根据答语for three weeks可知应选D。

B【解析】本题考查动词的时态。根据句首good bye说明是要分手了,推知本题应用完成时态,且be pleased:..后面跟to+动词原形。

(8) :A

A【解析】本题考查实义动词的被动语态。.句意为:如果你想让(被)听众听懂,你应该?,需用被动语态,又因主语是人时,want后面加不定式作宾语;want后面加动词一ing形式也表被动,但其主语多是事物,故选A。

(9) :A

A【解析】本题考查分词作状语。本句是动词-ing形式放于句首作原因状语,句意为:因为不知道他的地址,我不能把这本书寄给他。所以需用否定式,在动词-ing之前直接加not。

(10) :B

B【解析】本题考查不定代词的辨析。every表示 “每一个”,只能作定语,every和all的区别是前者强调“每一个”,后者则强调“所有的”,多用于复数。

(11) :C

C【解析】本题考查分数的用法和主谓一致。本句是现在完成时,因主语是第三人称单数,故用has;分数由基数词作分子,序数词作分母构成,分子若大于l,分母用复数形式。

(12) :D

D【解析】本题考查固定句式和动词时态的用法。句意为:又有一阵敲门声,这已经是那天下午我第二次被打扰了。It is/was the first/seC.ond?time(that)?后面用现在完成时态或过去完成时态。根据语境,应用过去完成时的被动语态。

(13) :B

B【解析】本题考查动词的固定搭配。feel like后面跟动名词表示一贯的行为,而suggest后需动名词作宾语。

(14) :D

D【解析】本题考查非限定性定语从句。原句中,两句之间没有连词,应是主从关系。故要接both of whom引导的非限制性定语从句,whom作介词of的宾语,sons是关系代词的先行词。

(15) :C

C【解析】本题考查倒装句式的用法。否定词no.where放在句首,句子要倒装:否定词+助动词 (be动词)+主语。常放在句首的否定词有:nowhere(没有地方),never(从不),hardly,sCarCely(几乎不),hale(几乎没有)等。第二节  完形填空

(1) :D

参考译文:

参加一场聚会如果迟到15到20分钟是不礼貌的。男主人或女主人往往是等所有的客人都到齐了才招待饭菜的。假如某一个人迟到了,食物可能就会煮烂了,主人的热情也会变得低落。如果你有事需要晚到,你应该打电话告诉他们请他们先开始晚宴。参加聚会提前到场更是不好!主人可能还没有准备好。如果你早到了,你可以开车或逛逛周围,或是坐在你车里等,直到时间到了。尽管通常来说准时到达是很重要的,但是另一方面,一场公开场合的聚会,主人会邀请客人们只要在一定的时间内到达或离开就行。所以客人们可以在主人规定的时间内到达。

空着肚子来很好,但是带一个小礼物来会更好。这个礼物不应该很贵,要不然你会让主人们很尴尬。带一束花、一瓶酒或是一盒糖果都很好。

千万别用钱作为礼物。介绍时,注意名字的顺序,首先是名,然后是姓。换句话说,名要先说。不仅仅记住别人的名字,在聊天时常常提起别人的名字也是很重要的。介绍后,我们一般都称呼朋友名。那些有年纪的人可能更希望别人称呼他们的称号或头衔,例如,“琼先生”、“史密斯夫人”、“约翰逊女士”或是“布朗博士”。

女士的名字一般是她们出生时的姓。在美国和加拿大,女人结婚后,她要跟随丈夫家的姓。但是有的女性结婚后仍然保持自己的姓。这种事现在很普遍。

D【解析】本题考查动词词义辨析。句意为:主人会等所有的客人都到齐了,才开始招待饭菜。serve意思为“招待,款待”。 (2) :A

37.A【解析】本题考查句意的理解。句意为:主人的热情也会变得低落。opinion“意见,主意”;thought“想法,思考”;idea“主意,意见”;spirit“精神,情绪”。

(3) :C

38.C【解析】本题考查上下文的句意连接。这里说要是自己实在有事可能会迟到,就告诉主人先开始他们的晚宴,所以这里用start。

(4) :B

39.B【解析】本题考查句意的衔接。一开始说的是迟到会不礼貌。这里作者做了一个比较,说明提前到更是糟糕。

(5) :D

40.D【解析】本题考查语境理解。句意为:主人可能还没有准备好。所以这里用ready,表示“准备好”的意思。

(6) :D

41.D【解析】本题考查连词的辨析。这里说的是要是你提前到了,先不要进去,应该在周围等待,直到时间到了。until意为“直到?才”。

(7) :B

42.B【解析】本题考查连词短语的用法。句意为:但是另一方面。这里作者表示的是事物的另一方面,on the other hand意为“另一方面”。

(8) :C

43.C【解析】本题考查语意连贯。作者提到在开放式的聚会中,主人往往是给客人们一个

中大网校 “十佳网络教育机构”、 “十佳职业培训机构” 网址:www.wangxiao.cn

中大网校引领成功职业人生

开放的时间,客人只要在这两个时间之间到达或离开就可以了,所以这里用一个between。

(9) :A

44.A【解析】本题考查的是介词的用法。这里表示 “在?的范围以内”。

(10) :B

45.B【解析】本题考查上下文的句意理解。句意为:但是你买的礼物不要太贵,要不然会让主人为难。后面又列举了几个例子。所以这里用a lot。

(11) :D

46.D【解析】本题考查的是常识判断。带一盒糖果是比较合适的。silver银器,prizes奖品,cook—book烹调书籍等都是不合适的。

(12) :C

47.C【解析】本题考查副词的用法。上文说首先介绍名。所以名应该在姓的前面。

(13) :B

48.B【解析】本题考查上下文的理解。不仅仅要记住别人的名字,在谈话时还应经常提到。所以这里用repeat。

(14) :A

49.A【解析】本题考查上下文的连接。上文提到是做介绍时的种种礼仪。所以这里是做完介绍后怎样。introduction介绍。

(15) :C

50.C【解析】本题考查常识判断。一般来说,年龄大的人一般希望别人对自己尊重,希望别人称呼自己的头衔。

到了下个世纪的某个时候,前门门廊里的早报就会消失。你也不用自己读报,报纸会自动把内容读给你听。起床以后,你只需要像打开电视一样地打开电子报。电脑中的系统就会把你选定的报纸内容通过电子声音读出来。你还可以任意选择自己想听到的声音,另外,如果你想了解更多的内容,你只需要轻轻地点击一下就可以看到完整的内容了。如果你觉得内容不错,还可以把它保存到自己的电脑中。以上都是未来报业发展方面的专家们所做出的预言。为把报纸纳入家庭媒体和娱乐系统当中,电子报将综合打印和播报,在播放新闻的同时还利用新闻录像加以分析。

人们现在已经掌握了这方面的大部分技术,下一步需要做的工作就是要让人们改变阅读纸张报纸的习惯。然而,对于电子报的反对呼声可能更多地来自于新闻行业。

因为这种改变是一种文化传统上的改变,它意味着新闻记者和出版商将会在下一代人意识到纸张报纸业已经不是新闻业之前就逐渐消失。科技使得传统报业不可避免地走到尽头。

然而,尽管科学技术日新月异,要想完全用电脑屏幕取代新闻纸还需要好几十年。这一过程大概还需要30到40年的时间,因为电脑的普及需要时间,另外,新闻纸带给造纸业的丰厚利润也是不可小觑的。

B【解析】主旨大意题。作者在本文中介绍了一种新型报纸。就是说在未来,人们可能不再从传统意义上的报纸上,而是从电脑屏幕上获得新闻。而且随着科技的发展,新的技术不断出现,这种技术会逐渐代替报纸。所以本文主要说了报纸的转变,所以正确的答案为B。(2) :B B【解析】事实细节题。从文章最后一句话,It might take 30 t0 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have?可知,人们购买电脑需要金钱,而且传统意义上的报纸已经在纸行业的利润中占据了很大的比重。在短时间内,人们很难达到从电脑上看报纸的水平。所以正确的答案为B。

C【解析】推理判断题。从文章的倒数第二段最后一句话Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable.可知,新技术的发展是不可阻挡的,必定会代替传统意义上的报纸。所以正确的答案为C。(6) :D Text 2

“这儿离下个村庄还有多远?”一个美国人向一个坐在路边的人询问道。在一些国家,A-ft']因为意识到旅行者不仅疲倦而且急切地想要到达目的地,会礼貌地回答说“就在前头”。他们认为这样回答更鼓舞人心、更温和,而且也是期望中的答案。而当那个美国人行驶了一个晚上仍没到达时,他就会越来越生气,觉得自己被“愚弄”了。他认为那个人是有意欺骗他,因为他确切地想知道这段距离。

如果情况颠倒过来,这个美国人一定觉得明知道距离下个村庄还有l5英里却对司机说就在前面是一种“欺骗”。尽管他也很同情那个疲倦的司机,他仍会说:“你还有好一段路要走,至少还要l5英里才到呢。”司机也许会很沮丧,但他起码知道该期望些什么。

到底应该准确作答还是礼貌回答,在不同文化背景的人们之间产生了许多误解。如果你事先对情况有所了解,有时会更容易意识到这个问题。

A【解析】推理判断题。从文章第二段?he would say“You have a good way to go yet;it IS at least l5 miles”?可知,美国人会实事求是地告诉你到底还有多远。所以正确的答案为A。 (9) :C

C【解析】主旨大意题。本文主要通过介绍不同国家的人对于指路的不同回答,以此说明在对待不同国家的人时要考虑到不同的思维方式,不能用自己的方式去对待任何人,这样的话,有时你认为是很礼貌、很适宜的事情在他人的眼里往往会成为很不好的事情。(10) :D Text 3

对于数百万美国人来说,电影是最好的娱乐方式。他们喜欢通过看屯影来调节生活,并以此来体验一下电影中的激情。在挑选看什么电影时,人们主要是根据自己喜欢的主角来选择,也会根据别人对电影内容的评价来选择。然而,人们看电影的主要目的还是为了逃避现实生活。当他们坐在漆黑的电影院里,看着荧幕中的人物和生活,他们就似乎觉得自己也进入了电影里面的世界。他们的思想和情绪完全融入剧中角色的生活中,这样一来,他们可以有两个小时忘掉自己的烦恼。电影中的浪漫和美好让他们暂时离开现实的烦忧而变得无忧无虑,就如同做一场美梦。

B【解析】事实细节题。从文章第一段最后一句,
