1. Mdern science and technlgy has __________ cmmunicatin between peple far apart.
A. made cnvenientB. made it cnvenient
C. made it cnvenient frD. made it cnvenient t
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查固定搭配。句意：现代科技使得相隔千里的人们可以方便的交流。此处是make+sth+adj，其中的形容词做宾语补足语，句中has made是谓语，cmmunicatin between peple far apart短语是宾语，cnvenient是宾语的补语，被前置。故选A。
【点睛】固定搭配考的是平时学生的词汇和短语的积累量，对常见的固定搭配要了然于心，了解每个选项的含义是做好此类题的关键，做题时可从句意着手，同时对于平时的学习要多进行积累词汇，考试时才能很好的完成。本题中因为空后是名词cmmunicatin，所以不能理解成make it +adj.+ fr sb t d sth 句型。
2. N matter hw frequently ________, the wrks f Beethven always attract a large number f peple.
A. perfrmingB. perfrmedC. t be perfrmedD. being perfrmed
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句的省略。句意：无论贝多芬的作品被表演得多么频繁，它总是能吸引很多人。分析句子结构可知，逗号前为n matter hw引导的状语从句，perfrm在句中作谓语动词，而状语从句中省略了主语+be动词，结合句意，主语the wrks f Beethven和谓语动词perfrm为被动关系，用被动语态，所以原句为n matter hw the wrks are frequently perfrmed。故选B。
3. Mst green vegetables, ________ fr t lng, will lse nutritin.
A. if t be ckedB. if ckedC. if ckingD. if being cked
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句中的省略。句意：很多绿色蔬菜，如果煮的时间太长，会失去营养。根据选项可知此题考查if引导的状语从句中的省略：当从句中的主语与主句主语保持一致时，可以省略从句中的主语和be动词。分析四个选项可知，if引导的从句后没有主语，那么就意味着跟主句的主语保持一致，句子补充完整应为“if mst green vegetables are cked fr t lng,”,根据省略的规则，省略主语的同时要省略be动词，即变成if cked fr t lng。故选B。
4. I hpe that the little ________ I have been able t d des gd t them all.
A. whichB. whatC. thatD. when
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查定语从句引导词。句意：我希望我能够做的这点小事会对他们有好处。分析句子结构可知，本空引导定语从句，从句中少宾语，先行词是不定代词little，所以只能用that，不能用which。故选C。
【点睛】
5. The time is nt far away ________ mdern cmmunicatins will becme widespread in China’s vast cuntryside.
A. asB. whenC. untilD. befre
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意：现代通讯技术在中国广大农村普及的时代已经不远了。先行词为the time，在定语从句中作时间状语，关系副词为when。故选B项。
6. ________ is knwn t everybdy, Taiwan is a part f China. We must unify it.
A. ItB. AsC. WhichD. What
【答案】B
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查非限制性定语从句。句意：正如大家都知道的，台湾是中国的一部分。我们必须统一它。分析句子结构可知，逗号前面为非限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词为逗号后面整个主句内容，而which引导的非限制性定语从句，不能置于主句前，所以用as引导。故选B。
【点睛】
7. In the dark street, there wasn’t a single persn ______ she culd turn fr help.
A. thatB. whC. frm whmD. t whm
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意：在黑暗的街道上，没有一个她可以求助的人。此处为介词+关系代词结构定语从句修饰先行词persn，且根据短语turn t sb. fr help，可知应用介词t，作介词的宾语，指人应用whm。故选D。
8. He will have learned English fr eight years by the time he _______ frm the university next year．
A. will graduateB. will have graduatedC. graduatesD. is t graduate
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查时态。句意：到下一年从大学毕业为止，他已经学了八年英语。by the time 引导的时间状语从句中，用一般现在时表示将来，故选C。
9. He lked arund and caught a man __________ his hand int the pcket f a passenger.
A. putB. t be puttingC. puttingD. t put
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查现在分词。句意：他环顾四周，偶然撞见一个男人把手放进了一位顾客的口袋里！catch sb ding sth 偶然撞见某人在干某事，这里的现在分词是做宾语补足语，强调动作的主动和进行，故选C。
10. He always had his camera ready whenever he traveled, just he saw smething that wuld make a gd picture.
A. in caseB. s thatC. fr fear thatD. as if
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查连词。句意：每次旅行时，他总是把相机准备好，以防看到能拍出好照片的东西。A. in case万一； B. s that以便； C. fr fear that唯恐；D. as if好像。前面的“他总是把相机准备好”跟后面的“看到能拍出好照片的东西”是假设条件关系，应用in case（倘若、以防万一）。故选A项。

A
“It’s a windy day in Laguna San Ignaci, and the waves seem t cme frm all directins,” said Sara Clemence in Blmberg Businessweek. My children and I are riding n a 18-ft bat—small enugh that we can reach dwn int the water if a gray whale swims up alngside. And then we see what we’ve cme fr: a heart-shaped shwer f water and a dark mass rushing belw it. As instructed, we splash (溅泼) the water strngly t signal the huge whale, which turns ut t be a mther with her weeks-ld baby. The baby sn swims beneath ur bat, emerges t blw mist in my face, then “lies nt its side like a 2-tn puppy.” Leaning dwn, I tuched its skin gently. “It feels electric. Als, a bit like petting a hard-biled egg.”
San Ignaci is ne f very few places where a persn can pet a whale. The whales cme each year t the cast f Baja Califrnia t give birth and t mate. If yu’re lucky, yu can “shake hands with a leatheryfin (鳍)” r even “plant a kiss n a cld, salty cheek.” I usually wrry abut such interactins, because wild creatures can becme deeply stressed by human cntact. But bat numbers are strictly limited in these prtected waters. And any whale that appraches a bat des s n its wn terms. Like that baby whale: “We see him a few times, and he seems t like being petted and splashed.”
S we are tw species, cnnecting thrugh tuch, but als thrugh eye cntact: “Mre than nce, after nsing arund ur bat, a yung gray turns n its side s ne dark, baseball-size eye is lking up at us.” Whalers used t call gray whales “devil fish” because these magnificent creatures turn vilent when threatened—“r, say, when their babies are harmed.” That makes it feel even mre f a blessing when, n ur third day there, a large mama whale appraches the bat. “I’m splashing when I feel her nse press up int my hand.” Thugh she’s “wiser and apparently mre alert” than her child, “she still decides t trust us.”
46. Which f the fllwing statements is true accrding t the passage?
A. The writer was n a whale-tuching trip.
B. The writer’s bat went dwn with a huge wave.
C. The baby whale splashed water all ver the writer.

48. Gray whales gt the name f “devil fish” frm their ______.

As Christmas apprached, the price f turkey went wild. It didn’t rcket, as sme might suggest. Nr did it crash. It just started waving. We live in the age f the variable prices. In the eyes f sellers, the right price—the ne that will draw the mst prfit frm cnsumers’ wallets—has becme the fcus f huge experiments. These srts f price experiments have becme a rutine part f finding that right price.
It may cme as a surprise that, in buying a pie, yu might be participating in a carefully designed scial-science experiment. But this is what nline cmparisn shpping has brught.

In result, nt cincidentally, nrmal pricing practices—an advertised discunt ff the “list price,” tw fr the price f ne, r simply “everyday lw prices” are giving way t far mre crazy strategies.
“In the Internet era, I dn’t think anyne culd have predicted hw cmplicated these strategies have becme,” says Rbert Dlan, a prfessr at Harvard. The price f a can f sda in a vending machine can nw vary with the temperature utside. The price f the headphnes may depend n hw budget-cnscius yur web histry shws yu t be. The price may even be affected by the price f the mbile phne yu use fr item search. Fr shppers, that means price—nt the ne ffered t yu right nw, but the ne ffered t yu 20 minutes frm nw, r the ne ffered t me, r t yur neighbr—may becme an increasingly unknwable thing. “There used t be ne price fr smething,” Dlan ntes. Nw the true price f pumpkin-pie spice is subject t a level f uncertainty.

They are trying t “cmparisn shpping” us. (简单地说，随时随地了解任何东西的价格的便利性给了我们消费者如此强大的力量，以至于为了重新占据上风或至少避免灭绝而不顾一切的卖家现在都在屏幕上盯着我们。他们试图和我们“比价购物”)”可知，商家们一直在屏幕上盯着我们是为了和我们“比价购物”，即通过分析消费者的在线购买历史以制定价格策略。故选B。
【55题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The price f a can f sda in a vending machine can nw vary with the temperature utside. The price f the headphnes may depend n hw budget-cnscius yur web histry shws yu t be. The price may even be affected by the price f the mbile phne yu use fr item search.

The Pwer f the Press
In mdern cuntries any effrts t restrict the freedm f the press are rightly cndemned. Hwever, this freedm can easily be abused. ___57___ Thugh we may enjy reading abut the lives f thers, it is extremely dubtful whether we wuld equally enjy reading abut urselves. Acting n the cntentin that facts are sacred, reprters can cause untld suffering t individuals by publishing details abut their private lives. Newspapers exert such tremendus influence that they can nt nly bring abut majr changes t the lives f rdinary peple but can even verthrw a gvernment.

If they had nly had ne mre child, the fact wuld have passed unnticed. They wuld have cntinued t struggle against ecnmic dds and wuld have lived in bscurity. But they suddenly became the parents f quintuplets, fur girls and a by, an event which radically changed their lives. The day after the birth f the five children, an aerplane arrived in Aberdeen bringing sixty reprters and phtgraphers.

Gifts pured in nt nly frm unknwn peple, but frm baby fd and sap manufactures wh wished t advertise their prducts. The ld farmhuse the family lived in was t be replaced by a new $ 500, 000 hme. Reprters kept pressing fr interviews s lawyers had t be emplyed t act as spkesmen fr the family at press cnferences. While the five babies were still quietly sleeping in xygen tents in a hspital nursery, their parents were paying the price fr fame. ___60___ They had becme the victims f cmmercializatin, fr their names had acquired a market value. Instead f being five new family members, these children had immediately becme a cmmdity.

F. As the parents had five children, life was an endless struggle against pverty.
【答案】57. B 58. F 59. A 60. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章用例子说明了媒体的力量很大，不仅能够给老百姓的生活带来重大的变化，甚至能够推翻一个政府。
【57题详解】
下文“Thugh we may enjy reading abut the lives f thers, it is extremely dubtful whether we wuld equally enjy reading abut urselves. (尽管我们可能喜欢阅读别人的生活，但是我们是否也同样喜欢阅读自己的生活，这是非常值得怀疑的。)”提出尽管我们可能喜欢阅读别人的生活，但是我们是否也同样喜欢阅读自己的生活，这是非常值得怀疑的，由此可知，空处引起下文，提出我们喜欢关注别人的生活，B项“关于人们的故事往往比想象中吸引更多的公众注意力。”符合，其中“Stries abut peple”呼应下文“the lives f thers”，故选B。
【58题详解】
上文“The family lived in Aberdeen, a small twn f 23, 000 inhabitants in Suth Dakta. (这家人住在南达科他州一个有23000居民的小镇阿伯丁。 )”描述了这家人住在小镇里，下文“They were expecting their sixth child and were faced with even mre pressing ecnmic prblems. (他们即将迎来第六个孩子，面临着更加紧迫的经济问题。)”描述了家里即将有第六个孩子，家庭更加贫穷，空处应该是在描述家里有五个孩子很贫穷的境况，F项“由于父母有五个孩子，生活就是与贫困进行无休止的斗争。”符合，且“five children”和下文“their sixth child”相照应，故选F。
【59题详解】
上文“The rise t fame was swift. (名声迅速崛起。)”可知，这家人很快就有名了，空处应该承接上文，指出这家人如何在大众媒体的帮助下变得有名的，A项“电视摄像机和报纸把这个消息传给了全国的每一个人。”符合，故选A。
【60题详解】
上文“While the five babies were still quietly sleeping in xygen tents in a hspital nursery, their parents were paying the price fr fame.(当这五个婴儿仍然安静地睡在医院托儿所的氧气帐篷里时，他们的父母正在为出名付出代价。)”指出这家人出名后，他们的父母为此付出了代价，下文“They had becme the victims f cmmercializatin, fr their names had acquired a market value. Instead f being five new family members, these children had immediately becme a cmmdity. (他们已经成为商业化的受害者，因为他们的名字已经获得了市场价值。这些孩子不再是五个新的家庭成员，而是立刻变成了一种商品。)”具体指出这家人为出名付出了什么代价，空处应该也是描述这家人为出名付出的代价，E项“他们再也不可能过上正常的生活了。”符合，故选E。

61. 好文章值得一读再读。(wrth)(汉译英)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】A gd article is wrth reading again and again.
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语和时态。好文章可以表示为“A gd article”，值得做某事用“be wrth ding”，描述客观事实，应用一般现在时，读书用动词“read”，“一再”表达为again and again，故翻译为A gd article is wrth reading again and again.
62. 开学前一天，学生都在忙着包书皮。(wrap) (汉译英)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The day befre schl started, the students were busy wrapping their bks.
【解析】
【详解】考查时间状语从句和动词时态、短语。表示“开学前一天”用the day befre schl started，befre引导时间状语从句，句子描述过去的事情，用一般过去时；主句主语“学生”为the students，表示“忙于做某事”用be busy ding，陈述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，主语是复数，be用were，表示“包书皮”用wrap their bks。故翻译为The day befre schl started, the students were busy wrapping their bks.
63. 信不信由你，培养一项实用的技能会让你终身受用。(develp) (汉译英)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Believe it r nt, develping a practical skill will benefit yu fr life.
【解析】
【详解】考查短语和非谓语动词。表示“信不信由你”短语为believe it r nt；表示“培养一项实用的技能会”应用动名词短语develping a practical skill，作主语；表示“让你终身受用”应用benefit yu fr life，结合句意可知句子时态为一般将来时。故翻译为Believe it r nt, develping a practical skill will benefit yu fr life.
64. 尽管遭遇这次可怕的挫折，她还是不忘总结教训，继续为未来奋斗。(despite)(汉译英)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Despite this terrible setback, she did nt frget t draw lessns and cntinue t fight fr the future.
【解析】
【详解】考查介词，时态和短语。根据despite“尽管”可知，表示让步的介词后面用名词短语，表示“可怕的挫折”用this terrible setback，句子描述过去的事情，用一般过去时。表示“不忘做某事”用frget t d，前面用助动词did的否定形式did nt；表示“总结教训”用draw lessns，表示“继续为未来奋斗”用cntinue t fight fr the future，两个动词短语用and并列。故翻译为Despite this terrible setback, she did nt frget t draw lessns and cntinue t fight fr the future.

1. Mdern science and technlgy has __________ cmmunicatin between peple far apart.
A. made cnvenientB. made it cnvenient
C. made it cnvenient frD. made it cnvenient t
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查固定搭配。句意：现代科技使得相隔千里的人们可以方便的交流。此处是make+sth+adj，其中的形容词做宾语补足语，句中has made是谓语，cmmunicatin between peple far apart短语是宾语，cnvenient是宾语的补语，被前置。故选A。
【点睛】固定搭配考的是平时学生的词汇和短语的积累量，对常见的固定搭配要了然于心，了解每个选项的含义是做好此类题的关键，做题时可从句意着手，同时对于平时的学习要多进行积累词汇，考试时才能很好的完成。本题中因为空后是名词cmmunicatin，所以不能理解成make it +adj.+ fr sb t d sth 句型。
2. N matter hw frequently ________, the wrks f Beethven always attract a large number f peple.
A. perfrmingB. perfrmedC. t be perfrmedD. being perfrmed
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句的省略。句意：无论贝多芬的作品被表演得多么频繁，它总是能吸引很多人。分析句子结构可知，逗号前为n matter hw引导的状语从句，perfrm在句中作谓语动词，而状语从句中省略了主语+be动词，结合句意，主语the wrks f Beethven和谓语动词perfrm为被动关系，用被动语态，所以原句为n matter hw the wrks are frequently perfrmed。故选B。
3. Mst green vegetables, ________ fr t lng, will lse nutritin.
A. if t be ckedB. if ckedC. if ckingD. if being cked
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句中的省略。句意：很多绿色蔬菜，如果煮的时间太长，会失去营养。根据选项可知此题考查if引导的状语从句中的省略：当从句中的主语与主句主语保持一致时，可以省略从句中的主语和be动词。分析四个选项可知，if引导的从句后没有主语，那么就意味着跟主句的主语保持一致，句子补充完整应为“if mst green vegetables are cked fr t lng,”,根据省略的规则，省略主语的同时要省略be动词，即变成if cked fr t lng。故选B。
4. I hpe that the little ________ I have been able t d des gd t them all.
A. whichB. whatC. thatD. when
【答案】C
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查定语从句引导词。句意：我希望我能够做的这点小事会对他们有好处。分析句子结构可知，本空引导定语从句，从句中少宾语，先行词是不定代词little，所以只能用that，不能用which。故选C。
【点睛】
5. The time is nt far away ________ mdern cmmunicatins will becme widespread in China’s vast cuntryside.
A. asB. whenC. untilD. befre
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意：现代通讯技术在中国广大农村普及的时代已经不远了。先行词为the time，在定语从句中作时间状语，关系副词为when。故选B项。
6. ________ is knwn t everybdy, Taiwan is a part f China. We must unify it.
A. ItB. AsC. WhichD. What
【答案】B
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查非限制性定语从句。句意：正如大家都知道的，台湾是中国的一部分。我们必须统一它。分析句子结构可知，逗号前面为非限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词为逗号后面整个主句内容，而which引导的非限制性定语从句，不能置于主句前，所以用as引导。故选B。
【点睛】
7. In the dark street, there wasn’t a single persn ______ she culd turn fr help.
A. thatB. whC. frm whmD. t whm
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意：在黑暗的街道上，没有一个她可以求助的人。此处为介词+关系代词结构定语从句修饰先行词persn，且根据短语turn t sb. fr help，可知应用介词t，作介词的宾语，指人应用whm。故选D。
8. He will have learned English fr eight years by the time he _______ frm the university next year．
A. will graduateB. will have graduatedC. graduatesD. is t graduate
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查时态。句意：到下一年从大学毕业为止，他已经学了八年英语。by the time 引导的时间状语从句中，用一般现在时表示将来，故选C。
9. He lked arund and caught a man __________ his hand int the pcket f a passenger.
A. putB. t be puttingC. puttingD. t put
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查现在分词。句意：他环顾四周，偶然撞见一个男人把手放进了一位顾客的口袋里！catch sb ding sth 偶然撞见某人在干某事，这里的现在分词是做宾语补足语，强调动作的主动和进行，故选C。
10. He always had his camera ready whenever he traveled, just he saw smething that wuld make a gd picture.
A. in caseB. s thatC. fr fear thatD. as if
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查连词。句意：每次旅行时，他总是把相机准备好，以防看到能拍出好照片的东西。A. in case万一； B. s that以便； C. fr fear that唯恐；D. as if好像。前面的“他总是把相机准备好”跟后面的“看到能拍出好照片的东西”是假设条件关系，应用in case（倘若、以防万一）。故选A项。

A
“It’s a windy day in Laguna San Ignaci, and the waves seem t cme frm all directins,” said Sara Clemence in Blmberg Businessweek. My children and I are riding n a 18-ft bat—small enugh that we can reach dwn int the water if a gray whale swims up alngside. And then we see what we’ve cme fr: a heart-shaped shwer f water and a dark mass rushing belw it. As instructed, we splash (溅泼) the water strngly t signal the huge whale, which turns ut t be a mther with her weeks-ld baby. The baby sn swims beneath ur bat, emerges t blw mist in my face, then “lies nt its side like a 2-tn puppy.” Leaning dwn, I tuched its skin gently. “It feels electric. Als, a bit like petting a hard-biled egg.”
San Ignaci is ne f very few places where a persn can pet a whale. The whales cme each year t the cast f Baja Califrnia t give birth and t mate. If yu’re lucky, yu can “shake hands with a leatheryfin (鳍)” r even “plant a kiss n a cld, salty cheek.” I usually wrry abut such interactins, because wild creatures can becme deeply stressed by human cntact. But bat numbers are strictly limited in these prtected waters. And any whale that appraches a bat des s n its wn terms. Like that baby whale: “We see him a few times, and he seems t like being petted and splashed.”
S we are tw species, cnnecting thrugh tuch, but als thrugh eye cntact: “Mre than nce, after nsing arund ur bat, a yung gray turns n its side s ne dark, baseball-size eye is lking up at us.” Whalers used t call gray whales “devil fish” because these magnificent creatures turn vilent when threatened—“r, say, when their babies are harmed.” That makes it feel even mre f a blessing when, n ur third day there, a large mama whale appraches the bat. “I’m splashing when I feel her nse press up int my hand.” Thugh she’s “wiser and apparently mre alert” than her child, “she still decides t trust us.”
46. Which f the fllwing statements is true accrding t the passage?
A. The writer was n a whale-tuching trip.
B. The writer’s bat went dwn with a huge wave.
C. The baby whale splashed water all ver the writer.

As Christmas apprached, the price f turkey went wild. It didn’t rcket, as sme might suggest. Nr did it crash. It just started waving. We live in the age f the variable prices.

In result, nt cincidentally, nrmal pricing practices—an advertised discunt ff the “list price,” tw fr the price f ne, r simply “everyday lw prices” are giving way t far mre crazy strategies.
“In the Internet era, I dn’t think anyne culd have predicted hw cmplicated these strategies have becme,” says Rbert Dlan, a prfessr at Harvard. The price f a can f sda in a vending machine can nw vary with the temperature utside. The price f the headphnes may depend n hw budget-cnscius yur web histry shws yu t be.

【55题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The price f a can f sda in a vending machine can nw vary with the temperature utside. The price f the headphnes may depend n hw budget-cnscius yur web histry shws yu t be.

Hwever, this freedm can easily be abused. ___57___ Thugh we may enjy reading abut the lives f thers, it is extremely dubtful whether we wuld equally enjy reading abut urselves. Acting n the cntentin that facts are sacred, reprters can cause untld suffering t individuals by publishing details abut their private lives. Newspapers exert such tremendus influence that they can nt nly bring abut majr changes t the lives f rdinary peple but can even verthrw a gvernment.

If they had nly had ne mre child, the fact wuld have passed unnticed. They wuld have cntinued t struggle against ecnmic dds and wuld have lived in bscurity. But they suddenly became the parents f quintuplets, fur girls and a by, an event which radically changed their lives. The day after the birth f the five children, an aerplane arrived in Aberdeen bringing sixty reprters and phtgraphers.

Reprters kept pressing fr interviews s lawyers had t be emplyed t act as spkesmen fr the family at press cnferences. While the five babies were still quietly sleeping in xygen tents in a hspital nursery, their parents were paying the price fr fame. ___60___ They had becme the victims f cmmercializatin, fr their names had acquired a market value. Instead f being five new family members, these children had immediately becme a cmmdity.

F. As the parents had five children, life was an endless struggle against pverty.
【答案】57. B 58. F 59. A 60. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章用例子说明了媒体的力量很大，不仅能够给老百姓的生活带来重大的变化，甚至能够推翻一个政府。
【57题详解】
下文“Thugh we may enjy reading abut the lives f thers, it is extremely dubtful whether we wuld equally enjy reading abut urselves. (尽管我们可能喜欢阅读别人的生活，但是我们是否也同样喜欢阅读自己的生活，这是非常值得怀疑的。)”提出尽管我们可能喜欢阅读别人的生活，但是我们是否也同样喜欢阅读自己的生活，这是非常值得怀疑的，由此可知，空处引起下文，提出我们喜欢关注别人的生活，B项“关于人们的故事往往比想象中吸引更多的公众注意力。”符合，其中“Stries abut peple”呼应下文“the lives f thers”，故选B。
【58题详解】
上文“The family lived in Aberdeen, a small twn f 23, 000 inhabitants in Suth Dakta. (这家人住在南达科他州一个有23000居民的小镇阿伯丁。 )”描述了这家人住在小镇里，下文“They were expecting their sixth child and were faced with even mre pressing ecnmic prblems. (他们即将迎来第六个孩子，面临着更加紧迫的经济问题。)”描述了家里即将有第六个孩子，家庭更加贫穷，空处应该是在描述家里有五个孩子很贫穷的境况，F项“由于父母有五个孩子，生活就是与贫困进行无休止的斗争。”符合，且“five children”和下文“their sixth child”相照应，故选F。
【59题详解】
上文“The rise t fame was swift. (名声迅速崛起。)”可知，这家人很快就有名了，空处应该承接上文，指出这家人如何在大众媒体的帮助下变得有名的，A项“电视摄像机和报纸把这个消息传给了全国的每一个人。”符合，故选A。
【60题详解】
上文“While the five babies were still quietly sleeping in xygen tents in a hspital nursery, their parents were paying the price fr fame.(当这五个婴儿仍然安静地睡在医院托儿所的氧气帐篷里时，他们的父母正在为出名付出代价。)”指出这家人出名后，他们的父母为此付出了代价，下文“They had becme the victims f cmmercializatin, fr their names had acquired a market value. Instead f being five new family members, these children had immediately becme a cmmdity. (他们已经成为商业化的受害者，因为他们的名字已经获得了市场价值。这些孩子不再是五个新的家庭成员，而是立刻变成了一种商品。)”具体指出这家人为出名付出了什么代价，空处应该也是描述这家人为出名付出的代价，E项“他们再也不可能过上正常的生活了。”符合，故选E。

61. 好文章值得一读再读。(wrth)(汉译英)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】A gd article is wrth reading again and again.
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语和时态。好文章可以表示为“A gd article”，值得做某事用“be wrth ding”，描述客观事实，应用一般现在时，读书用动词“read”，“一再”表达为again and again，故翻译为A gd article is wrth reading again and again.
62. 开学前一天，学生都在忙着包书皮。(wrap) (汉译英)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The day befre schl started, the students were busy wrapping their bks.
【解析】
【详解】考查时间状语从句和动词时态、短语。表示“开学前一天”用the day befre schl started，befre引导时间状语从句，句子描述过去的事情，用一般过去时；主句主语“学生”为the students，表示“忙于做某事”用be busy ding，陈述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，主语是复数，be用were，表示“包书皮”用wrap their bks。故翻译为The day befre schl started, the students were busy wrapping their bks.
63. 信不信由你，培养一项实用的技能会让你终身受用。(develp) (汉译英)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Believe it r nt, develping a practical skill will benefit yu fr life.
【解析】
【详解】考查短语和非谓语动词。表示“信不信由你”短语为believe it r nt；表示“培养一项实用的技能会”应用动名词短语develping a practical skill，作主语；表示“让你终身受用”应用benefit yu fr life，结合句意可知句子时态为一般将来时。故翻译为Believe it r nt, develping a practical skill will benefit yu fr life.
64. 尽管遭遇这次可怕的挫折，她还是不忘总结教训，继续为未来奋斗。(despite)(汉译英)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Despite this terrible setback, she did nt frget t draw lessns and cntinue t fight fr the future.
【解析】
【详解】考查介词，时态和短语。根据despite“尽管”可知，表示让步的介词后面用名词短语，表示“可怕的挫折”用this terrible setback，句子描述过去的事情，用一般过去时。表示“不忘做某事”用frget t d，前面用助动词did的否定形式did nt；表示“总结教训”用draw lessns，表示“继续为未来奋斗”用cntinue t fight fr the future，两个动词短语用and并列。故翻译为Despite this terrible setback, she did nt frget t draw lessns and cntinue t fight fr the future.
