二、单项填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
请从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
21. I felt very tired when I got home, and I  ________   straight  to bed.
A.go          B.went     
C.had gone       D.have gone
21. B 考查动词的时态。感觉疲倦和直接上床睡觉是连贯动作,因此选B。
22.—Would you like a glass of wine?
—________.     I don't drink.
A.No, thanks         
B.Yes, please    
C.I don't like it        
D.It's my favorite
22.A  考查情景交际。后句有I don't drink的提示,所以用No, thanks来婉言拒绝。
23. It's not easy to change habits, ________    with awareness and self­control, it is possible.
A.for       B.or       
C.but         D.so
23.C 考查连词。句意:尽管改变习惯很难,但是只要有意识和自制力,还是可以改变的。
24. John invited about 40 people to  his wedding, most of    ________   are family members.
A.them       B.that      
C.which          D.whom
24.D 考查定语从句。该句为非限制性定语从句,用whom来代替people并连接主从句。
25. ________   we have enough evidence, we can't win the case.
A.Once       B.As long as     
C.Unless           D.Since
25.C 考查连词。后句说官司打不赢,用unless来表示相反的条件。
26. —What are  you doing this Saturday?
—I'm not sure, but I   ________ go to  the Rolling Stones concert.
A.must     B.would  
C.should    D.might
26.D  考查情态动词。由前面的I'm not sure 可知是不太确定,因此用might表示有可能。
27. It was with the help of the local guide  ________  the mountain climber was rescued.
A.who   B.that  
C.when    D.how
27.B 考查强调句。由于被强调的是with the help of the local guide,而并非guide, 所以用that来连接。
28. ________struck me most in the movie was the father's  deep love for  his son.
A.That          B.It         
C.What          D.Which
28. C  考查名词性从句。________ struck me most 是主语从句,在这个从句中缺主语,因此用what引导。
29.—It rained cats and dogs this morning.I'm glad we took an umbrella.
—Yeah, we would have got wet all over if we   ________. 
A.hadn't        B.haven't       
C.didn't           D.don't
29.A 考查虚拟语气。主句用would have done结构,从句对应用had done结构,答语省略了 taken the umbrella。
30. When I was little, my mother used to sit by my bed,  ________   me stories till I fell asleep.
A.having told        B.telling       
C.told          D.to tell
30. B  考查非谓语动词。telling me stories结构作伴随状语。
31. Recycling is one way to protect the environment; reusing is  ________. 
A.another       B.the other     
C.one another          D.one
31.A  考查代词。recycling和reusing虽然看似相同,均是环保,但各有区别,another是another way的省略。句意:循环利用是一种环保方式,而重新使用则是另一种环保方式。
32. The parents were shocked by   ________   news that their son needed     ________ operation on his knee.
A.a; /      B.the; /    
C.the; an        D.a; an
32.C 考查冠词用法。第一空由于有后续同位语从句的特指说明,因此用定冠词;第二空需要的手术是首次提及,用不定冠词。
33. A Midsummer Night's Dream  ________   at  the Theatre Royal on 19th June, and then tours throughout Scotland.
A.opens         
B.is opened        
C.will open           
D.will be opened
33.A 考查动词的时态。此处用一般现在时来表达按时间、计划安排的将来动作。
34. The engine just won't start.Something seems  ________  wrong with it.
A.to go     B.to have gone  
C.going    D.having gone
34.B 考查非谓语动词。seem后应接不定式,但又要表达不定式动作先于seem动作发生,所以用不定式的完成式。
35. —Forgotten something? I can keep an eye on your kids if you want to go and get it.
—________Thank you all the same.
A.It's very kind of you.                
B.Oh, how careless of me!
C.I might as well go and get it.           
D.Well, I can do without it.
35. D 考查情景交际。答语中有“Thank you all the same.”提示不需要帮助,所以选D项。

A
The morning had been a disaster.My tooth was aching,and I'd been in an argument with a friend.Her words still hurt:“The trouble with you is that you won't put yourself in my place.Can't you see things from my point of view?”I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth.I'd thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday,but the pain was really unbearable.I started calling the dentists in the phone book,but no one could see me immediately.Finally,at about lunchtime,I got lucky.
“If you come by right now,”the receptionist said,“the dentist will fit you in.”
I took  my purse and keys and rushed to my car.But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist.What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice?Why wasn't he as busy as the others?
In the dentist's office,I sat down and looked around.I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried.The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice­cold one.
When I told her my fears,she laughed and said,“Don't worry.The dentist is very good.”
“How long do I have to wait for him?”I asked impatiently.
“Come on,he is coming.Just lie down and relax.And enjoy the artwork,”the assistant said.
“The artwork?”I was puzzled.
The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled.There was a beautiful picture,right where I could enjoy it:on the ceiling.How considerate the dentist was!At that moment,I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.
What a relief!
56.Which of the following best describes the author's feeling that morning?
A.Cheerful.
B.Nervous.
C.Satisfied.
D.Upset.
57.What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?
A.The dentist's agreeing to treat her at very short notice.
B.The dentist's being as busy as the other dentists.
C.The surroundings of the dentist's office.
D.The laughing assistant of the dentist.
58.Why did the author suddenly smile?
A.Because the dentist came at last.
B.Because she saw a picture on the ceiling.
C.Because she could relax in the chair.
D.Because the assistant kept comforting her.
59.What did the author learn from her experience most probably?
A.Strike while the iron is hot.
B.Have a good word for one's friend.
C.Put oneself in other's shoes.
D.A friend in need is a friend indeed.
【要点综述】作者牙痛难忍,通过电话簿寻医,大多数医生不能马上为她诊治。最后,一位牙医欣然同意立马诊治。作者对该医生的医术能力表示怀疑:别的医生都很忙,只有医道不精者才门可罗雀。但后来的事实表明作者看人的方式有问题。在该诊所,作者受该医生匠心独运的安排的影响,调整了心情,忘却了病痛,也明白了事理。
56.D 推理判断题。第一段中,aching, hurt及unbearable等词均描述作者的心境:难受。
57.A 细节理解题。第三段最后两句说明作者对该牙医的怀疑:别的牙医均未答应立即施救,唯独该牙医欣然答应诊治,反倒引起别人对其医术的怀疑。
58.B 推理判断题。因为看见天花板上医生为病人绘制的美图,会使病人忘却病痛,因此作者感到释然而笑。该题干扰较大的选项为C,但坐在牙科医生的手术椅上不一定就能缓解病痛,故排除C项。
59.C 综合推理题。 put oneself in other's shoes为习语,意思为:使某人处于和别人相同的处境,即换位思考。牙医用天花板的美图来消解病人的苦痛,即改变对事物的认识角度,从而解决问题。
B

Almost every machine with moving parts has wheels, yet no one knows exactly when the first wheel was invented or what it was used for.We do know,however,that they existed over 5,500 years ago in ancient Asia.
The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia.It is over 5,100 years old.Evidence suggests that wheels for transport didn't become popular for a while, though.This could be because animals did a perfectly good job of carrying farming tools and humans around.
But it could also be because of a difficult situation.While wheels need to roll on smooth surfaces, roads with smooth surfaces weren't going to be constructed until there was plenty of demand for them.Eventually,road surfaces did become smoother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later.There had been no important changes in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of modern road design.
In the mid­1700s,a Frenchman came up with a new design of road—a base layer (层)of large stones covered with  a thin layer of smaller stones.A Scotsman improved on this design in the 1820s and a strong,lasting road surface became a reality.At around the same time,metal hubs(the central part of a wheel) came into being,followed by the pneumatic tyre(充气轮胎) in 1846. Alloy wheels were invented in 1967, sixty years after the appearance of tarmacked roads(柏油路).As wheel design took off, vehicles got faster and faster.
64.What might explain why transport wheels didn't become popular for some time?
A.Few knew how to use transport wheels.
B.Humans carried farming tools just as well.
C.Animals were a good means of transport.
D.The existence of transport wheels was not known.
65.What do we know about road design from the passage?
A.It was easier than wheel design.
B.It improved after big changes in vehicle design.
C.It was promoted by fast­moving vehicles.
D.It provided conditions for wheel design to develop.
66.How is the last paragraph mainly developed?
A.By giving examples.
B.By making comparisons.
C.By following time order.
D.By making classifications.
67.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The beginning of road design.
B.The development of transport wheels.
C.The history of public transport.
D.The invention of fast­moving vehicles.
【要点综述】 本文介绍轮子的演进历史。
64.C 细节理解题。第二段最后一句说明wheels长期未能流行的缘由:动物长期以来充当交通工具。

66.C 篇章结构题。该段看似举例,但这些例子均是按时间由远及近而叙述的。
67.B 主旨大意题。该文主要介绍wheels由一般的发明物到广泛运用于交通的历史演进过程。
D
Not all bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean, an S­shaped body of water covering 33 million square miles.The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization.Unlike real inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness.It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.
“Storm at Sea”, a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of mankind's earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.
When the wind is from the west
All the waves that cannot rest
 To the east must thunder on
 Where the bright tree of the sun
Is rooted in the ocean's breast.
As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull.It is an ocean that moves, impressively and endlessly.It makes all kinds of noise—it is forever thundering,boiling, crashing,and whistling.
It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath—perhaps not so noticeably out in mid­ocean,but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach.It mimics(模仿)nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature.It is filled with symbiotic existences,too; unimaginable quantities of creatures,little and large alike,mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub­ocean vitality.And it has a psychology.It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.
68.Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is ________.
A.always energetic
B.lacking in liveliness
C.shaped like a square
D.favored by ancient poets
69.What is the purpose of using the poem “Storm at Sea” in the passage?
A.To describe the movement of the waves.
B.To show the strength of the storm.
C.To represent the power of the ocean.
D.To prove the vastness of the sea.
70.What does the underlined word “symbiotic” mean?
A.Living together.
B.Growing fast.
C.Moving harmoniously.
D.Breathing peacefully.
71.In the last paragraph, the Atlantic is compared to ________.
A.a beautiful and poetic place
B.a flesh and blood person
C.a wonderful world
D.a lovely animal
【要点综述】该文既是对地理知识的陈列,也是对文学作品的铺陈。大西洋的壮美和静态的内海迥然不同,大西洋好比是一个富有生命力且有血有肉的人。
68.A  细节理解和逻辑推理题。inland seas比较平静,而大西洋充满生命律动的浩瀚与同为西方文化摇篮的地中海形成鲜明的对比。
69.C 写作方法题。该诗句描写大西洋的壮美:当西风信然而至时,大西洋的波浪开始涌动,以雷霆万钧之势,凸显大西洋的磅礴气势。
70.A 词义推断题。作者先把大西洋比作生命的律动,然后又把她的其他禀赋铺陈于后,因此该词此处应该指“共生共存”。
71.B 写作方法题。该文通过诗词和拟人化的描写把大西洋比作有血有肉的人。
E
It is widely known that any English conversation begins with The Weather.Such a fixation with the weather finds expression in Dr.Johnson's famous comment that “When two English meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnson's observation is as accurate now as it was over two hundred years ago, most commentators fail to come up with a convincing explanation for this English weather­speak.
Bill Bryson, for example, concludes that,as the English weather is not at all exciting,the obsession with it can hardly be understood.He argues that “To an outsider,the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it.” Simply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.
Jeremy Paxman, however, disagrees with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive.Bryson is wrong, he says,because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena. “The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.” According to him, the weather in England is very changeable and uncertain and it attracts the English as well as the outsider.
Bryson and Paxman stand for common misconceptions about the weather­speak among the English.Both commentators, somehow, are missing the point.The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all.English weather­speak is a system of signs,which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and actually talk to each other.Everyone knows conversations starting with weather­speak are not requests for weather data.Rather, they are routine greetings,conversation starters or the blank “fillers”. In other words, English weather­speak is a means of social bonding.
72.The author mentions Dr.Johnson's comment to show that ________.
A.most commentators agree with Dr.Johnson
B.Dr.Johnson is famous for his weather observation
C.the comment was accurate two hundred years ago
D.English conversations usually start with the weather
73.What does the underlined word “obsession” most probably refer to?
A.A social trend.
B.An emotional state.
C.A historical concept.
D.An unknown phenomenon.
74.According to the passage,Jeremy Paxman believes that ________.
A.Bill Bryson has little knowledge of the weather
B.there is nothing special about the English weather
C.the English weather attracts people to the British Isles
D.English people talk about the weather for its uncertainty
75.What is the author's main purpose of writing the passage?
A.To explain what English weather­speak is about.
B.To analyse misconceptions about the English weather.
C.To find fault with both Bill Bryson and Jeremy Paxman.
D.To convince people that the English weather is changeable.
【要点综述】 本文通过对Bill Bryson和Jeremy Paxman两人迥然不同的观点的陈述来阐明作者对英国人以天气为寒暄内容的见解。
72.D 逻辑推断题。通过引用名人名言来说明英国人以天气为寒暄内容的现象很普遍。
73.B  词义推断题。Bill Bryson认为英国天气单一(there is not very much of it)不足以引起人们的情感响应,因此该词此处指的是 “情感状态”。
74.D 细节理解题。倒数第二段中有“The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in uncertainty.”(意思是:人们对英国气候的关注点不是气候本身,而是气候的不确定性。)由此可知答案。
75.A 写作目的题。通过对Bill Bryson和Jeremy Paxman两人迥然不同的观点的陈述来阐明作者对英国人以天气为寒暄内容的见解。
五、写作(共两个写作任务,满分35分)
写作一(满分15分)

【思路点拨】该题为开放式作文。内容要点应该包括对这一现象的陈述和本人的看法两个方面。
One possible version:
    I must say that I have been behaving this way to some degree.Though I know mum is the most important person in my world, I just can not do what she likes me to do.It seems that I quite often stay away from my dear mum in playing my phone, sleeping, hanging out with my friend, or just shutting out my mum in my room.

【思路点拨】环境保护是当今的热门话题。该文写作内容具体并有微度的开放点让考生充分发挥。四个内容要点分三个段落来写:第一段包括写信目的的介绍;第二段为该文的主体,即对WWF的请求,该处应该增加一两个要点来写,不能直接翻译该要点提示;第三段为致谢和表达期望。注意恰当使用一些连词,使文章自然、流畅。适当使用一些高级句型和词汇以提高作文档次。
One possible version:
Dear Sir or Madam,
I'm a student from Chongqing, China.I'm writing this letter to you to report you the emergent situation of the Chinese Yangtze finless porpoise.Because of the human beings' destructive influence, the number of this precious species has promptly dropped to less than 1,000.
    As far as I know, your foundation can help those species that are at the edge of distinction. I'm writing this letter to you to ask for your generous donation to our project to protect this endangered species.If it is not too much inconvenient, would you please come to China to have a close observation of the poor porpoises and give us aid and direction to prevent them from dying out completely?
    Thanks for reading my letter and anxiously anticipating to hear from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
