考点:考查强调句与宾语从句连用
9.---Has John ever broken his promise?
---No. For example, he said he would show me around his school, and .
A. so would he B. so did he
C. so he would D. so he did
【答案】D
【解析】
考查固定句型。句意:——John违背诺言了吗?——没有,比如他说他领我参观学校,他确实那样做了。So+助动词/系动词/情态动词+主语,表示“后者也那样”, So+主语+助动词/系动词/情态动词,表示“确实是那样”,此处表示确实那样,故选D.
【名师点睛】
“so+助动词/系动词/情态动词+主语”这一结构主要用来说明前面所说的情况也同样适用于后面的人或物,意为“……也一样”。该结构中的助动词 do 根据前文的情况也可换成 is, am, are, was, were, does, did, can, could 等。如:
He passed the exam, and so did I.
=He passed the exam, and I passed the exam, too.
=Both he and I passed the exam.
=He and I both passed the exam.
他通过了考试,我也通过了考试。/ 他和我都通过了考试。
They went to the zoo yesterday. So did we. 他们昨天去了动物园,我们也去了。
“so+主语+助动词/系动词/情态动词”结构则主要用于加强语气,其意为“的确如此、确实如此”,表示后者赞同前者的话或意见,只是进一步强调并重复前句所述的内容。前后句的主语指的是同一个人或物。该结构中的助动词 do 根据前文的情况也可换成 is, am, are, was, were, does, did, can, could 等。如:
—He has done a good job. 他干得不错。
—So he has. 他的确干得不错。
—He will speak at the meeting tomorrow. 他明天将在会上发言。
—So he will. 确实如此。
—He went to see his friend yesterday. 他昨天去看朋友了。
—So he did. 的确如此。
10.According to the school rule, no child be allowed out of the school, unless accompanied by his or her own parents.
A. should B. must
C. shall D. can
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查shall的特殊用法。句意:根据学校规定,除非有亲生父母陪同,否则不得让任何儿童离开学校。A.should意为“按理说,应该,竟然”; B. must意为“必须,偏偏,非要”;C. shall用于第二和第三人称的陈述句时,有“警告、命令、威胁、允诺”等;D. can有“可能,可以”之意。分析语境可知,本句中含有命令或警告的意思,即如果不是亲生父母,谁也不得带走儿童,所以从语气来说,应该选C项。
【点睛】Shall作为助动词,一般用于第一人称Ⅰ和We,表示一个将来的动作,构成将来时态。Shall后面接动词原形。例如:
(1)I shall think it over and Let you know my idea.
我将考虑一下此事,然后告诉你我的想法。
(2)We shall have a good time in the park.
我们在公园里会玩得很高兴的。1. Shall用于第一人称,表示征求对方的意愿。
如:What shall we do this evening? 我们开始上课好吗?
2. Shall用于第一、第三人称疑问句中,表示说话人征求对方的意见或向对方请示。如:
Shall we begin our lesson?
When shall he be able to leave the hospital? 他什么时候能出院?
3. Shall用于第二、第三人称,表示说话人给对方命令、警告、允诺或威胁。
如:You shall fail if you don't work harder. 如果你不加倍努力,你会失败的。(警告)
He shall have the book when I finish reading. 我读完后,他会得到那本书 (允诺)
He shall be punished if he do so. 如果他再这样做,必将受到处罚。(威胁)
11.There has been positive reaction to the proposal to help the disabled, the impact will be lasting especially for younger ones.
A. on which B. on whom
C. of which D. of whom
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:帮助残疾人的建议会产生积极的反响,其中的影响对于青少年来说将会更加持久。分析句子可知,本句的先行词是前面的positive reaction, 而先行词在定语从句中作 the impact of的介词宾语,即the impact of the positive reaction, 所以the impact和前面的句子是一种所属关系,即这件事情的影响。 the reaction是先行词,指的是物,要用which。非限制性定语从句中可以把the +n+of+which提到句首,所以用介词of+which来引导定语从句,故选C
12.To get a slim figure, Fanny has tried many ways, but in vain. So now she is reduced anything for supper.
A. to not eating B. not to eat
C. not to eating D. to not eat
【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析:考查动名词的否定:句意:--为了有苗条的身材,fanny试了很多方法,但是都是徒劳。--所以现在她落到晚饭不吃东西的地步了。这里be reduced to“沦落到…”,中的to是介词,介词后要跟名词或动名词,动名词的否定形式是not doing,所以要选A
考点:考查动名词的否定
13.He switched off the light and was about to leave the classroom and only then____ to rain heavily.
A. it began B. it begins
C. does it begin D. did it begin
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查倒装句。句意:他关掉灯,正准备离开教室,就在这时,天下起了大雨。Only修饰的状语放在句首,后面的主句要部分倒装,故选A。
【点睛】Only+状语放在句首,后面的主句要部分倒装。要注意主句要部分便装,如果被only所强调的状语为状语从句,该句型的状语从句不倒装,只对主句进行倒装。
Only in this way can he solve the problem
Only then did he find out the truth.
Only when the students study happily will they study efficiently
Only after my friend came was the radio repaired.
如果放于句首的only所修饰的不是状语时,该句不用倒装。如
Only John can have acess to the library.
Only some of the children passed the examination
14.________ individual players, we have a great team but the problem is that they don’t play football together well at all.
A. On top of B. By means of
C. In terms of D. In case of
【答案】C
【解析】
考查介词短语。A. On top of在……之上;B. By means of用,依靠;C. In terms of按照,就……而言;D. In case of万一,假设。句意:就队员个人而言,我们有一个很伟大的团队,但问题是踢足球时他们根本不能很好地配合。故选C。
15.--- The manager of the factory wants to improve production a great deal, but he doesn’t spend much on technology.
---I am afraid he won’t realize his dream. You know ________.
A. you can’t eat your cake and have it B. empty vessels make the greatest sound

【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析:考查谚语。A.鱼和熊掌不能兼得;B.满瓶不动半瓶摇;C.知足常乐;D.三个臭皮匠顶个诸葛亮。句意:——这家工厂的经理想要大量提高产量,但他没把很多钱花在技术上。——我恐怕他实现不了他的梦想。你知道:鱼和熊掌,不能兼得。故A正确。

细节理解题。根据第六段中的“The Daily Pass ...is VOID(无效)if not placed face up with the date and time visible.”,第七段中的“The Weekly Pass ...is VOID if not placed face up with the date and time visible.”和倒数第二段“A Monthly Parking Pass allows a vehicle to be parked in an appointed parking stall only when it is clearly displayed.”可知A项正确。B项文章未提及,故可排除;根据倒数第三段中的“Monthly parking is limited and available on a first come first serve basis and sold starting on the twentysixth(26)of every month.”可知C项错误;根据最后一段“Lost monthly passes cannot be replaced.”可知月卡遗失是不能补办的,所以D项错误。综合分析可知A项正确。
【点睛】文章细节的理解可以细化为:(1)一一对应型。答案与题目在表达形式和意义上直接吻合,一一对应,一目了然。属于浅层次的阅读试题,分数比例较少。 (2)语言转述型。这是一类间接事实细节题,答案与题目在意义上从分运用了词义之间的转述关系,即正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的另类表达。 3)语意理解型。这是一类深层事实细节理解题,答案与题目之间存在着一定的逻辑联系,这种联系需要建立在事实的基础上通过上、下文来进行判断、分析、归纳和整合,才能得出正确答案。如第1小题 ( 4)是非辨别型。这是一类综合事实细节题,出题形式常常是“三正一误”(三项正确,只有一项不符合原文内容)或“三误一正”(三项错误,只有一项符合原文内容)。如第2小题。(5)事实排序型。细节理解题多数时考查的并不是单一的信息,而是多处信息的整合。解答此类“综合”信息细节题时,一定要全面捕捉相关信息,进行综合分析、归纳,切忌根据“一面之词”草率地作出结论。如第3小题就属于是非辨别题。属于三误一正。这个题是文章多处信息的整合:根据第六段中的“The Daily Pass ...is VOID(无效)if not placed face up with the date and time visible.”第七段中的“The Weekly Pass ...is VOID if not placed face up with the date and time visible.”和倒数第二段“A Monthly Parking Pass allows a vehicle to be parked in an appointed parking stall only when it is clearly displayed.”可知A项正确。B项文章未提及,故可排除;根据倒数第三段中的“Monthly parking is limited and available on a first come first serve basis and sold starting on the twentysixth(26)of every month.”可知C项错误;根据最后一段“Lost monthly passes cannot be replaced.”可知月卡遗失是不能补办的,所以D项错误。综合分析可知A项正确。

Many of us have wondered what Earth is like beneath the surface. So have writers and scientists. In French novelist Jules Verne’s masterpiece Journey to the Center of the Earth, explorers go down to Earth’s center and discover amazing wonders.
But in real life, human beings haven’t even come close to the planet’s core (核心). The core is over 6,000 km down. The deepest hole ever created, according to the BBC, is the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia, which only goes 12.3 km down.
So how do we know about everything down below without any samples?
One good way to start is to think about the Earth’s density (密度), Simon Redfern of the University of Cambridge in the UK told the BBC.
“The density of the material on Earth’s surface is much lower than the average density of the whole Earth, so that tells us there’s something that has greater density,” Redfern said.
The challenge is to find out which heavy materials the core is made of. And the main material scientists have found is iron. The idea is that when Earth formed 4.5 billion years ago, a lot of iron made its way down to the core, taking up about 80 percent of it. Today scientists are still working on finding out which other materials the core could be made up of.
You might also wonder how we know the size of the core. There’s a one-word answer: seismology (地震学).
When an earthquake happens, seismic stations around the world record the shockwaves it sends throughout the planet. It’s like hitting one side of the planet with a huge hammer and listening on the other side for the noise.
Early research found that some shockwaves, called “S-waves”, went missing. S-waves can only travel through solid material, but not through liquid, so they must have found something molten in Earth’s center. By following the S-waves’ paths, scientists found out that rocks became liquid around 3,000 km down.
There are still many questions about the Earth’s core to answer. But the study of the dark world below isn’t just for scientists’ curiosity.
The movement of Earth’s molten iron core builds up a powerful magnetic (有磁力的) field. It protects us from radiation from the sun and is needed for compasses and GPS systems to work.
So perhaps none of us will ever set eyes on the core, but it’s good to know it’s there.
38. The author mentions Jules Verne’s novel Journey to the Center of the Earth in the first paragraph to .
A. discuss the possibility of going down to Earth’s center
B. show how much humans have discovered about Earth
C. paint a picture in our imagination of the dark world below
D. show humans’ deep interest in Earth’s center
39. We can learn from the article that “S-waves” .
A. are often used to predict earthquakes
B. cannot travel through liquid material
C. are the most noticeable shockwaves produced by earthquakes
D. can travel most rapidly at 3,000 kilometers below Earth’s surface
40. We can infer from the last three paragraphs that .
A. research into Earth’s core has hardly made any progress in recent years
B. improvements in GPS systems could help people find out more about Earth
C. Earth’s core helps to protect humans from harm
D. scientists are likely to reach Earth’s center within dozens of years
【答案】38. D 39. B 40. C
【解析】
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“Many of us have wondered what Earth is like beneath the surface”可知我们中的许多人都对地球感兴趣。接着说“作家和科学家也是如此。在法国小说家朱尔斯·凡尔纳的杰作《到地球中心的旅程》中,探险家来到地球中心,发现了惊人的奇迹”,由此可推断出人类对于地球尤其是地球中心有着浓厚的兴趣,分析选项可知D项符合题意,故选D项。
【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“S-waves can only travel through solid material, but not through liquid,”可知,“S波只能通过固体材料传播,但不能通过液体传播”,由此可推断出B项正确。
【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后三段可知,在地球中心有熔融的物质这种物质在地球中心周围形成了液体,无法让S波通过。这种地球中心的熔融的物质不断运动形成了一个强大的磁场,保护我们免受太阳的辐射。综合起来就是地球的核心有助于保护人类免受伤害。分析选项可知C项(地球的核心有助于保护人类免受伤害),故选C项。
C
Whales, seals and walruses stay warm in cold water because they have a thick layer of blubber. We humans rely on something like blubber—neoprene rubber wet suits—to spend time in cold water. But the thick versions for really icy water are heavy and clumsy. So rather than taking after big marine mammals, what if we could learn from the littler ones, like beavers and otters?
“These animals are quite small and they can’t carry around a thick layer of blubber. So instead they have fur that is evolved to trap air, and this air provides a layer of insulation for them in water.”
Alice Nasto is a graduate student in mechanical engineering at MIT. Scientists have known about this air-trapping insulation mechanism for a long time, but they had not teased out the details of how it works. So Nasto and her colleagues took on the challenge.
“We’re creating these furry samples from these rubbery materials by laser cutting molds and casting these hairy surfaces. And through our approach we can precisely control the spacing of the hairs and the length of the hairs.”
The researchers then created a system to gather data when their pelts (毛皮) entered and moved through a liquid—in this case not water, but silicone oil, which makes it easier to see air bubbles. The key is to keep the pelt’s air layer intact (完好的).
“So when they’re crossing the air water interface, initially their hairy texture is full of air. And then you go into water. How much of the air comes down with you as you’re moving in through the interface. So that’s what this model will tell you.”
They found that the denser the hairs, the more the air gets trapped,which should keep the animal—or potentially the human in a future furry wet suit—warm. The research is in the journal Physical Review Fluids.
“What we would like to work on moving forward is understanding, after you dive into the water, how do you maintain this air layer trapped in your fur. And there’s lots of interesting properties of the fur in nature that we haven’t yet looked at in our model that could help explain how this mechanism might work.”
So for now, cold-water divers and surfers will still emulate seals or sea lions. But the day may come when they’ll more closely resemble otters or beavers.
41. What can make littler mammals keep warm in cold water?
A. An air-trapping insulation mechanism. B. A thick layer of blubber.
C. A fur that is evolved to trap air. D. A neoprene rubber wet suit.
42. Nasto and her colleagues have revealed _______________.
A. the denser the hairs, the more the air can be carried with.
B. the way this air-trapping insulation mechanism works.
C. how the air layer trapped in the fur is maintained in water.
D. the existence of the air-trapping insulation mechanism.
43. The passage is most probably taken from ______________.
A. a newspaper B. a travel book
C. a medical report D. a science magazine
44. What is the best title for the passage?
A. A Fantastic Layer of Fur B. An Important Research
C. A Wonderful Mechanism D. A Graduate’s Challenge

In creating A.J. Fikry’s ordinary-yet-extraordinary life, the author Gabielle Zevin has thrown every clichés(老生常谈) into the mix. The hero, A.J. Fikry, lost his beloved wife Nic in a road accident. The sales of his bookstore have been decreasing. The enthusiastic new sales representative Amelia won’t stop annoying him with new books. His rare and very valuable first edition has gone missing. But the unexpected arrival of Maya left in his care brings about a series of events with love and hope to his life.
There are few real surprises in the plot and attentive readers will be able to tell where the story is headed. But that is not the point; the clichés and the predictable plot take nothing away from Zevin’s work The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry because it’s how she tells the story that first charms the readers, then holds their attention, making them read the whole book in a single sitting and finally give the book a long hug when they are finished. This book is a love letter to the joys of reading.
Each chapter begins with the title of a short story or a book and a note from A.J. Fikry describing what he likes about it, essentially introducing each character by what they read. The characters are so realistic that it’s hard not to fall in love with all of them: Maya, “the fantastic book-worm,” Amelia, “the giantess” with questionable taste in fashion, Lambiase, the adorable police chief, and A.J. Fikry, the reluctant hero who hates electronic reading devices that will “send centuries of a lively culture into what will surely be a rapid decline.”
The passage of time, race issues, and the bureaucratic argument of children’s services are all put aside in the telling of this story, not because there’s anything to hide or because reality is not allowed to interfere, but because the author chooses to focus on the important stuff. For example, it focuses on Lambiase who organizes a reading club for policemen at the book store. His original intention is to help promote business, but over the years he becomes a genuine book-lover, one who tends to always have simple advice for his cynical(愤世嫉俗的) friend, A.J. Fikry. “Bad timing,” Lambiase claims, “I’ve been a police officer for twenty years now and I’ll tell you pretty much every bad thing in life is a result of bad timing, and every good thing is the result of good timing.”
More than anything else, this novel is not only about the selling of them or the reading of them, but how books and stories become part of our lives, how we find ourselves within what we read and how we carry books with us. It is also about the power of unexpected happiness and always believing that something wonderful is just around the corner. The Late Bloomer is the book within a book which brings together A.J. Fikry and Amelia. It reminds them that life doesn’t follow a set script, things happen when they are meant to happen, and there is no such thing as “too late” for anything. Life is the big picture. Always look at the big picture. Enjoy it. Don’t get too concentrated on the details, because it will all be over before you know it. In the long run nobody, not even you, will remember the ordinary details because they are, in the end, quite irrelevant.
A.J. Fikry’s final words of wisdom to teen-aged Maya convey the same feelings in literary terms: “We are not quite novels. We are not quite short stories. In the end, we are collected works. We have read enough to know there are no collections where each story is perfect. Some of us hit. Some miss.”
45. The author’s attitude towards Zevin’s book is _________.
A. supportive B. critical
C. objective D. indifferent
46. How many characters of the novel are mentioned in the passage?
A. Four. B. Five.
C. Six. D. Seven.
47. The police chief organizing a reading club is mentioned to prove _________ in the novel.
A. there is really nothing to hide B. reality is not allowed to interfere
C. important stuff has been focused on D. everything is a result of timing
48. What can be implied in Paragraph 5?
A. The novel underlines happiness will always be around.
B. The novel mainly talks about the marketing of the book.
C. It is The Late Bloomer that brings A.J and Amelia together.
D. It is important to do things on the basis of overall situation.
49. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph most probably means _________.
A. our life is full of ups and downs B. we should collect works all our life
C. our life is closely connected with books D. we should read books all our life
50. The passage is mainly about _________.
A. the extraordinary life of A.J. Fikry B. the moral lesson of no “too late” in life
C. a comment on The Later Bloomer D. a review of The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry
【答案】45. A 46. B 47. C 48. D 49. A 50. D
【解析】
本文为应用说明文。文中主要讲述了作者对A.J. Fikry的作品ordinary-yet-extraordinary life进行了简单的介绍并给予了高度的评价。
【45题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“the author Gabielle Zevin has thrown every clichés(老生常谈) into the mix. ”以及第二段中的“This book is a love letter to the joys of reading.”作者对这本书评价很高。所以对此是支持的。 supportive支持的;critical 批判的;objective客观的;indifferent没有不同的。故选A。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“his beloved wife Nic”以及第三段:“Maya, “the fantastic book-worm,” Amelia, “the giantess” with questionable taste in fashion, Lambiase, the adorable police chief, and A.J. Fikry, the reluctant hero ”,结合上下文,可知本题属于直接信息理解题。作者在文中共提及5个小说角色。可知选B。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“not because there’s anything to hide or because reality is not allowed to interfere, but because the author chooses to focus on the important stuff. For example, it focuses on Lambiase who organizes a reading club for policemen at the book store.”在讲述故事的过程中,有些问题被搁置一边,不是因为要隐藏或干涉,而是因这作者选择把重点放在重要的事情上。由此可知,作者提及警察局长组织阅读俱乐部为了在小说中突出重要的东西。由此可知选择C。
【48题详解】
推理判断题。第五段中的“Don’t get too concentrated on the details, because it will all be over before you know it. In the long run nobody, not even you, will remember the ordinary details because they are, in the end, quite irrelevant. ”根据第5段的描述可以推论:我们做事情时不要着眼于细节而是以全局为重。此处选择D。
【49题详解】
事实细节题。根据第六段的“We have read enough to know there are no collections where each story is perfect. Some of us hit. Some miss.”我们已经读得够多了,知道没有这样的作品集,作品集里每个故事都是完美的。我们中的一些人被困难击中了。有些人错过了。可推知,作者认为人生不是完美的,一些人成功,一些人失败。由此可知生活并不完美,生活中充满了曲折。分析选项(A我们的生活充满了曲折。B我们应该一生都在搜集故事C 我们的生活与书紧密相连D我们一生都该读书 )可知, A项符合题意。
【50题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段中的“In creating A.J. Fikry’s ordinary-yet-extraordinary life, the author Gabielle Zevin has thrown every clichés(老生常谈) into the mix.”可知作者是在介绍和评论一本书。结合上下文可知作者全篇文章都在描绘The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry这本书的角色、故事梗概以及寓意。句意:A有关A.J. Fikry的杰出生活B 生活中没有太迟的寓意教育C 对The Later Bloomer的评论D对A.J. Fikry生活故事这本书的评论。此处选择D。

The loss of handwriting in our high-tech world saddens me. People of all ages openly admit their handwriting as keyboards replace pen and paper. Increasingly, schoolchildren deal with assignments on computer and struggle to write, having had little practice. I am of the generation that learnt to write with a dip pen in kindergarten and a fountain pen in high school; by the time I reached university, like everyone else. I used a functional ballpoint. Handwriting has filled every aspect of my life since I was first taught to shape letters on the lined pages of my exercise books.
From the age of 12,I kept a handwritten journal, recording my thoughts and feelings regarding both the significant and mundane aspects of my life. Through this daily practice I connected with myself, explored experiences and found a way to interpret and make sense of my relationships. Although I rarely reread my written material, the process of writing has remained with me as a means of processing my feelings and filtering(过滤) my experiences.
Yet today, handwritten letters are as rare as a red panda. Few of us write any longer, even to those to whom we are close, We communicate difficultly when we e-mail or text, both methods characterized by speed and informality. The deep thinking which accompanied a handwritten letter is almost entirely absent. We may be communicating more frequently and with more people, but the depth and quality of our communication has reduced.
Sadly, modern technology tends to be temporary. Few of us keep old e-mails or even print them out, so a sense of history and memory is lost. Archivists(档案管理者)report that more information has been lost in the past decade than in the previous 150 years. It is too easy to press the delete button.
In many other areas of records, material is now in the digital format. Yet saving material in a digital format only is extremely unstable. How it will survive the future remains a problem.
In this digital world of text, e-mails and instant messaging, the perceived value of writing is no longer obvious and the case for retaining the practice of writing needs to be made. Should we save the bumble pen and paper when laptops and mobiles are functional, universal and unstoppable? Should children continue to be taught to write with a pen and paper?
With its passing a good mode of self-expression is being lost. I invite readers to engage with handwriting and become aware of this special skill that has created civilization for centuries.

61.请阅读下面短文,并按要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
In recent years, internet voting has become increasingly popular in China. People not only cast on-line votes themselves, but also urge others to vote for competitions like the “Most Beautiful Teacher” and the “Cutest Baby”.
Li Jiang, a high school student, is invited to vote in the “Best Police Officer” competition, organized by the local government to let the public have a better understanding of police officers’ daily work. Li Jiang visits the website and reads all the stories. He is deeply moved by their glorious deeds. He is already thinking of becoming a policeman himself in the future.
Su Hua is invited by his uncle to vote for his cousin in the “Future Singer” competition. He has already received three similar invitations this week. His uncle tells him that if his cousin wins the competition, the family will win an overseas tour for free. Su Hua likes his cousin very much, but he finds other singers perform even better. To vote, or not to vote? This is a question that troubles him very much.

【答案】Possible version one:
On-line voting becomes increasingly popular, and many competitions get people involved in it. It is beneficial to some people, while it puts others into a dilemma over whether to vote or not.
In my opinion, on-line voting is an inseparable part of modern life and should be welcomed, since it is no more than a way to participate in public life. It makes no difference from ordinary voting events, in which candidates go around to seek supports. In addition, the Internet makes surveying and voting easy and convenient, regardless of time and space. Furthermore, voting on the Internet makes instant feedback possible.
To be honest, voters sometimes feel annoyed, not because they hate voting, but because they are divided between emotion and fairness. Things will turn for the better if we can work out some participation rules for people to obey. Therefore, I hold a positive attitude towards on- line voting.
(150 words)
Possible version two:
Internet voting is quite popular nowadays. Many people are somewhat puzzled at the negative side of the voting, although some are quite happy with it, and active in doing it.
In my opinion, Internet voting has begun to show its negative impacts on people and society. Firstly, people may feel forced when asked to do things that they don’t want to. Secondly, voting of this kind does not depend on the strong points of the competitors, but rather on how many social-networking resources they have. Thirdly, the voters or even the competitors in many cases are possibly taken advantage of by the organizers for commercial purposes.
In short, Internet voting, to some extent, is unfair, if not immoral, and cannot be trusted. Therefore, rules should be worked out and strictly observed. Everyone in our society should help those in need, but it is more important to be sincere and earnest.

A. the one that B. one that
C. one D. the one
【答案】C
【解析】
试题分析:考查代词的用法。one表示泛指,相当于“a(an)+名词”,代替的是同类事物中的“一个”;that表示特指,相当于“the+名词”;代词one=" a/" an +n处one="a" product-making power;而________driven by innovation and emphasizes quality over quantity中driven by 只是一个非谓语短语(be driven by 被……驱使)作定语,因此不需要连词引导。所以排除A、 B。one表示泛指,相当于“the+名词”可以排除D。句意:“2025中国制造”的目标是把中国从一个产品制造工厂变成一个产品制造大国,一个以创新为导向、强调质量而不是数量的大国。故选C。

9.---Has John ever broken his promise?
---No. For example, he said he would show me around his school, and .
A. so would he B. so did he
C. so he would D. so he did
【答案】D
【解析】
考查固定句型。句意:——John违背诺言了吗?——没有,比如他说他领我参观学校,他确实那样做了。So+助动词/系动词/情态动词+主语,表示“后者也那样”, So+主语+助动词/系动词/情态动词,表示“确实是那样”,此处表示确实那样,故选D.
【名师点睛】
“so+助动词/系动词/情态动词+主语”这一结构主要用来说明前面所说的情况也同样适用于后面的人或物,意为“……也一样”。该结构中的助动词 do 根据前文的情况也可换成 is, am, are, was, were, does, did, can, could 等。如:
He passed the exam, and so did I.
=He passed the exam, and I passed the exam, too.
=Both he and I passed the exam.
=He and I both passed the exam.
他通过了考试,我也通过了考试。/ 他和我都通过了考试。
They went to the zoo yesterday. So did we. 他们昨天去了动物园,我们也去了。
“so+主语+助动词/系动词/情态动词”结构则主要用于加强语气,其意为“的确如此、确实如此”,表示后者赞同前者的话或意见,只是进一步强调并重复前句所述的内容。前后句的主语指的是同一个人或物。该结构中的助动词 do 根据前文的情况也可换成 is, am, are, was, were, does, did, can, could 等。如:
—He has done a good job. 他干得不错。
—So he has. 他的确干得不错。
—He will speak at the meeting tomorrow. 他明天将在会上发言。
—So he will. 确实如此。
—He went to see his friend yesterday. 他昨天去看朋友了。
—So he did. 的确如此。
10.According to the school rule, no child be allowed out of the school, unless accompanied by his or her own parents.
A. should B. must
C. shall D. can
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查shall的特殊用法。句意:根据学校规定,除非有亲生父母陪同,否则不得让任何儿童离开学校。A.should意为“按理说,应该,竟然”; B. must意为“必须,偏偏,非要”;C. shall用于第二和第三人称的陈述句时,有“警告、命令、威胁、允诺”等;D. can有“可能,可以”之意。分析语境可知,本句中含有命令或警告的意思,即如果不是亲生父母,谁也不得带走儿童,所以从语气来说,应该选C项。
【点睛】Shall作为助动词,一般用于第一人称Ⅰ和We,表示一个将来的动作,构成将来时态。Shall后面接动词原形。例如:
(1)I shall think it over and Let you know my idea.
我将考虑一下此事,然后告诉你我的想法。
(2)We shall have a good time in the park.
我们在公园里会玩得很高兴的。1. Shall用于第一人称,表示征求对方的意愿。
如:What shall we do this evening? 我们开始上课好吗?
2. Shall用于第一、第三人称疑问句中,表示说话人征求对方的意见或向对方请示。如:
Shall we begin our lesson?
When shall he be able to leave the hospital? 他什么时候能出院?
3. Shall用于第二、第三人称,表示说话人给对方命令、警告、允诺或威胁。
如:You shall fail if you don't work harder. 如果你不加倍努力,你会失败的。(警告)
He shall have the book when I finish reading. 我读完后,他会得到那本书 (允诺)
He shall be punished if he do so. 如果他再这样做,必将受到处罚。(威胁)
11.There has been positive reaction to the proposal to help the disabled, the impact will be lasting especially for younger ones.
A. on which B. on whom
C. of which D. of whom
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:帮助残疾人的建议会产生积极的反响,其中的影响对于青少年来说将会更加持久。分析句子可知,本句的先行词是前面的positive reaction, 而先行词在定语从句中作 the impact of的介词宾语,即the impact of the positive reaction, 所以the impact和前面的句子是一种所属关系,即这件事情的影响。 the reaction是先行词,指的是物,要用which。非限制性定语从句中可以把the +n+of+which提到句首,所以用介词of+which来引导定语从句,故选C
12.To get a slim figure, Fanny has tried many ways, but in vain. So now she is reduced anything for supper.
A. to not eating B. not to eat
C. not to eating D. to not eat
【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析:考查动名词的否定:句意:--为了有苗条的身材,fanny试了很多方法,但是都是徒劳。--所以现在她落到晚饭不吃东西的地步了。这里be reduced to“沦落到…”,中的to是介词,介词后要跟名词或动名词,动名词的否定形式是not doing,所以要选A
考点:考查动名词的否定
13.He switched off the light and was about to leave the classroom and only then____ to rain heavily.
A. it began B. it begins
C. does it begin D. did it begin
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查倒装句。句意:他关掉灯,正准备离开教室,就在这时,天下起了大雨。Only修饰的状语放在句首,后面的主句要部分倒装,故选A。
【点睛】Only+状语放在句首,后面的主句要部分倒装。要注意主句要部分便装,如果被only所强调的状语为状语从句,该句型的状语从句不倒装,只对主句进行倒装。
Only in this way can he solve the problem
Only then did he find out the truth.
Only when the students study happily will they study efficiently
Only after my friend came was the radio repaired.
如果放于句首的only所修饰的不是状语时,该句不用倒装。如
Only John can have acess to the library.
Only some of the children passed the examination
14.________ individual players, we have a great team but the problem is that they don’t play football together well at all.
A. On top of B. By means of
C. In terms of D. In case of
【答案】C
【解析】
考查介词短语。A. On top of在……之上;B. By means of用,依靠;C. In terms of按照,就……而言;D. In case of万一,假设。句意:就队员个人而言,我们有一个很伟大的团队,但问题是踢足球时他们根本不能很好地配合。故选C。
15.--- The manager of the factory wants to improve production a great deal, but he doesn’t spend much on technology.
---I am afraid he won’t realize his dream. You know ________.
A. you can’t eat your cake and have it B. empty vessels make the greatest sound

【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析:考查谚语。A.鱼和熊掌不能兼得;B.满瓶不动半瓶摇;C.知足常乐;D.三个臭皮匠顶个诸葛亮。句意:——这家工厂的经理想要大量提高产量,但他没把很多钱花在技术上。——我恐怕他实现不了他的梦想。你知道:鱼和熊掌,不能兼得。故A正确。
考点:考查谚语

细节理解题。根据FREE PARKING STALLS(停车位)部分中的“When the posted time limit is reached,you move your vehicle,or should you require additional parking during the same day,your vehicle must be parked in a pay parking stall本句的句意“当公布的时间限制到了,您需要移动您的车辆,或者如果在同一天您仍然需要停车,您的车辆必须停在收费停车位”,可知,时间到了要收费的,故C项正确。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中的“The Daily Pass ...is VOID(无效)if not placed face up with the date and time visible.”,第七段中的“The Weekly Pass ...is VOID if not placed face up with the date and time visible.”和倒数第二段“A Monthly Parking Pass allows a vehicle to be parked in an appointed parking stall only when it is clearly displayed.”可知A项正确。B项文章未提及,故可排除;根据倒数第三段中的“Monthly parking is limited and available on a first come first serve basis and sold starting on the twentysixth(26)of every month.”可知C项错误;根据最后一段“Lost monthly passes cannot be replaced.”可知月卡遗失是不能补办的,所以D项错误。综合分析可知A项正确。
【点睛】文章细节的理解可以细化为:(1)一一对应型。答案与题目在表达形式和意义上直接吻合,一一对应,一目了然。属于浅层次的阅读试题,分数比例较少。 (2)语言转述型。这是一类间接事实细节题,答案与题目在意义上从分运用了词义之间的转述关系,即正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的另类表达。 3)语意理解型。这是一类深层事实细节理解题,答案与题目之间存在着一定的逻辑联系,这种联系需要建立在事实的基础上通过上、下文来进行判断、分析、归纳和整合,才能得出正确答案。如第1小题 ( 4)是非辨别型。这是一类综合事实细节题,出题形式常常是“三正一误”(三项正确,只有一项不符合原文内容)或“三误一正”(三项错误,只有一项符合原文内容)。如第2小题。(5)事实排序型。细节理解题多数时考查的并不是单一的信息,而是多处信息的整合。解答此类“综合”信息细节题时,一定要全面捕捉相关信息,进行综合分析、归纳,切忌根据“一面之词”草率地作出结论。如第3小题就属于是非辨别题。属于三误一正。这个题是文章多处信息的整合:根据第六段中的“The Daily Pass ...is VOID(无效)if not placed face up with the date and time visible.”第七段中的“The Weekly Pass ...is VOID if not placed face up with the date and time visible.”和倒数第二段“A Monthly Parking Pass allows a vehicle to be parked in an appointed parking stall only when it is clearly displayed.”可知A项正确。B项文章未提及,故可排除;根据倒数第三段中的“Monthly parking is limited and available on a first come first serve basis and sold starting on the twentysixth(26)of every month.”可知C项错误;根据最后一段“Lost monthly passes cannot be replaced.”可知月卡遗失是不能补办的,所以D项错误。综合分析可知A项正确。

Many of us have wondered what Earth is like beneath the surface. So have writers and scientists. In French novelist Jules Verne’s masterpiece Journey to the Center of the Earth, explorers go down to Earth’s center and discover amazing wonders.
But in real life, human beings haven’t even come close to the planet’s core (核心). The core is over 6,000 km down. The deepest hole ever created, according to the BBC, is the Kola Superdeep Borehole in Russia, which only goes 12.3 km down.
So how do we know about everything down below without any samples?
One good way to start is to think about the Earth’s density (密度), Simon Redfern of the University of Cambridge in the UK told the BBC.
“The density of the material on Earth’s surface is much lower than the average density of the whole Earth, so that tells us there’s something that has greater density,” Redfern said.
The challenge is to find out which heavy materials the core is made of. And the main material scientists have found is iron. The idea is that when Earth formed 4.5 billion years ago, a lot of iron made its way down to the core, taking up about 80 percent of it. Today scientists are still working on finding out which other materials the core could be made up of.
You might also wonder how we know the size of the core. There’s a one-word answer: seismology (地震学).
When an earthquake happens, seismic stations around the world record the shockwaves it sends throughout the planet. It’s like hitting one side of the planet with a huge hammer and listening on the other side for the noise.
Early research found that some shockwaves, called “S-waves”, went missing. S-waves can only travel through solid material, but not through liquid, so they must have found something molten in Earth’s center. By following the S-waves’ paths, scientists found out that rocks became liquid around 3,000 km down.
There are still many questions about the Earth’s core to answer. But the study of the dark world below isn’t just for scientists’ curiosity.
The movement of Earth’s molten iron core builds up a powerful magnetic (有磁力的) field. It protects us from radiation from the sun and is needed for compasses and GPS systems to work.
So perhaps none of us will ever set eyes on the core, but it’s good to know it’s there.
38. The author mentions Jules Verne’s novel Journey to the Center of the Earth in the first paragraph to .
A. discuss the possibility of going down to Earth’s center
B. show how much humans have discovered about Earth
C. paint a picture in our imagination of the dark world below
D. show humans’ deep interest in Earth’s center
39. We can learn from the article that “S-waves” .
A. are often used to predict earthquakes
B. cannot travel through liquid material
C. are the most noticeable shockwaves produced by earthquakes
D. can travel most rapidly at 3,000 kilometers below Earth’s surface
40. We can infer from the last three paragraphs that .
A. research into Earth’s core has hardly made any progress in recent years
B. improvements in GPS systems could help people find out more about Earth
C. Earth’s core helps to protect humans from harm
D. scientists are likely to reach Earth’s center within dozens of years
【答案】38. D 39. B 40. C
【解析】
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“Many of us have wondered what Earth is like beneath the surface”可知我们中的许多人都对地球感兴趣。接着说“作家和科学家也是如此。在法国小说家朱尔斯·凡尔纳的杰作《到地球中心的旅程》中,探险家来到地球中心,发现了惊人的奇迹”,由此可推断出人类对于地球尤其是地球中心有着浓厚的兴趣,分析选项可知D项符合题意,故选D项。
【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“S-waves can only travel through solid material, but not through liquid,”可知,“S波只能通过固体材料传播,但不能通过液体传播”,由此可推断出B项正确。
【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后三段可知,在地球中心有熔融的物质这种物质在地球中心周围形成了液体,无法让S波通过。这种地球中心的熔融的物质不断运动形成了一个强大的磁场,保护我们免受太阳的辐射。综合起来就是地球的核心有助于保护人类免受伤害。分析选项可知C项(地球的核心有助于保护人类免受伤害),故选C项。
C
Whales, seals and walruses stay warm in cold water because they have a thick layer of blubber. We humans rely on something like blubber—neoprene rubber wet suits—to spend time in cold water. But the thick versions for really icy water are heavy and clumsy. So rather than taking after big marine mammals, what if we could learn from the littler ones, like beavers and otters?
“These animals are quite small and they can’t carry around a thick layer of blubber. So instead they have fur that is evolved to trap air, and this air provides a layer of insulation for them in water.”
Alice Nasto is a graduate student in mechanical engineering at MIT. Scientists have known about this air-trapping insulation mechanism for a long time, but they had not teased out the details of how it works. So Nasto and her colleagues took on the challenge.
“We’re creating these furry samples from these rubbery materials by laser cutting molds and casting these hairy surfaces. And through our approach we can precisely control the spacing of the hairs and the length of the hairs.”
The researchers then created a system to gather data when their pelts (毛皮) entered and moved through a liquid—in this case not water, but silicone oil, which makes it easier to see air bubbles. The key is to keep the pelt’s air layer intact (完好的).
“So when they’re crossing the air water interface, initially their hairy texture is full of air. And then you go into water. How much of the air comes down with you as you’re moving in through the interface. So that’s what this model will tell you.”
They found that the denser the hairs, the more the air gets trapped,which should keep the animal—or potentially the human in a future furry wet suit—warm. The research is in the journal Physical Review Fluids.
“What we would like to work on moving forward is understanding, after you dive into the water, how do you maintain this air layer trapped in your fur. And there’s lots of interesting properties of the fur in nature that we haven’t yet looked at in our model that could help explain how this mechanism might work.”
So for now, cold-water divers and surfers will still emulate seals or sea lions. But the day may come when they’ll more closely resemble otters or beavers.
41. What can make littler mammals keep warm in cold water?
A. An air-trapping insulation mechanism. B. A thick layer of blubber.
C. A fur that is evolved to trap air. D. A neoprene rubber wet suit.
42. Nasto and her colleagues have revealed _______________.
A. the denser the hairs, the more the air can be carried with.
B. the way this air-trapping insulation mechanism works.
C. how the air layer trapped in the fur is maintained in water.
D. the existence of the air-trapping insulation mechanism.
43. The passage is most probably taken from ______________.
A. a newspaper B. a travel book
C. a medical report D. a science magazine
44. What is the best title for the passage?

In creating A.J. Fikry’s ordinary-yet-extraordinary life, the author Gabielle Zevin has thrown every clichés(老生常谈) into the mix. The hero, A.J. Fikry, lost his beloved wife Nic in a road accident. The sales of his bookstore have been decreasing. The enthusiastic new sales representative Amelia won’t stop annoying him with new books. His rare and very valuable first edition has gone missing. But the unexpected arrival of Maya left in his care brings about a series of events with love and hope to his life.
There are few real surprises in the plot and attentive readers will be able to tell where the story is headed. But that is not the point; the clichés and the predictable plot take nothing away from Zevin’s work The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry because it’s how she tells the story that first charms the readers, then holds their attention, making them read the whole book in a single sitting and finally give the book a long hug when they are finished. This book is a love letter to the joys of reading.
Each chapter begins with the title of a short story or a book and a note from A.J. Fikry describing what he likes about it, essentially introducing each character by what they read. The characters are so realistic that it’s hard not to fall in love with all of them: Maya, “the fantastic book-worm,” Amelia, “the giantess” with questionable taste in fashion, Lambiase, the adorable police chief, and A.J. Fikry, the reluctant hero who hates electronic reading devices that will “send centuries of a lively culture into what will surely be a rapid decline.”
The passage of time, race issues, and the bureaucratic argument of children’s services are all put aside in the telling of this story, not because there’s anything to hide or because reality is not allowed to interfere, but because the author chooses to focus on the important stuff. For example, it focuses on Lambiase who organizes a reading club for policemen at the book store. His original intention is to help promote business, but over the years he becomes a genuine book-lover, one who tends to always have simple advice for his cynical(愤世嫉俗的) friend, A.J. Fikry. “Bad timing,” Lambiase claims, “I’ve been a police officer for twenty years now and I’ll tell you pretty much every bad thing in life is a result of bad timing, and every good thing is the result of good timing.”
More than anything else, this novel is not only about the selling of them or the reading of them, but how books and stories become part of our lives, how we find ourselves within what we read and how we carry books with us. It is also about the power of unexpected happiness and always believing that something wonderful is just around the corner. The Late Bloomer is the book within a book which brings together A.J. Fikry and Amelia. It reminds them that life doesn’t follow a set script, things happen when they are meant to happen, and there is no such thing as “too late” for anything. Life is the big picture. Always look at the big picture. Enjoy it. Don’t get too concentrated on the details, because it will all be over before you know it. In the long run nobody, not even you, will remember the ordinary details because they are, in the end, quite irrelevant.
A.J. Fikry’s final words of wisdom to teen-aged Maya convey the same feelings in literary terms: “We are not quite novels. We are not quite short stories. In the end, we are collected works. We have read enough to know there are no collections where each story is perfect. Some of us hit. Some miss.”
45. The author’s attitude towards Zevin’s book is _________.
A. supportive B. critical
C. objective D. indifferent
46. How many characters of the novel are mentioned in the passage?
A. Four. B. Five.
C. Six. D. Seven.
47. The police chief organizing a reading club is mentioned to prove _________ in the novel.
A. there is really nothing to hide B. reality is not allowed to interfere
C. important stuff has been focused on D. everything is a result of timing
48. What can be implied in Paragraph 5?
A. The novel underlines happiness will always be around.
B. The novel mainly talks about the marketing of the book.
C. It is The Late Bloomer that brings A.J and Amelia together.
D. It is important to do things on the basis of overall situation.
49. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph most probably means _________.
A. our life is full of ups and downs B. we should collect works all our life
C. our life is closely connected with books D. we should read books all our life
50. The passage is mainly about _________.
A. the extraordinary life of A.J. Fikry B. the moral lesson of no “too late” in life
C. a comment on The Later Bloomer D. a review of The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry
【答案】45. A 46. B 47. C 48. D 49. A 50. D
【解析】
本文为应用说明文。文中主要讲述了作者对A.J. Fikry的作品ordinary-yet-extraordinary life进行了简单的介绍并给予了高度的评价。
【45题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“the author Gabielle Zevin has thrown every clichés(老生常谈) into the mix. ”以及第二段中的“This book is a love letter to the joys of reading.”作者对这本书评价很高。所以对此是支持的。 supportive支持的;critical 批判的;objective客观的;indifferent没有不同的。故选A。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“his beloved wife Nic”以及第三段:“Maya, “the fantastic book-worm,” Amelia, “the giantess” with questionable taste in fashion, Lambiase, the adorable police chief, and A.J. Fikry, the reluctant hero ”,结合上下文,可知本题属于直接信息理解题。作者在文中共提及5个小说角色。可知选B。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“not because there’s anything to hide or because reality is not allowed to interfere, but because the author chooses to focus on the important stuff. For example, it focuses on Lambiase who organizes a reading club for policemen at the book store.”在讲述故事的过程中,有些问题被搁置一边,不是因为要隐藏或干涉,而是因这作者选择把重点放在重要的事情上。由此可知,作者提及警察局长组织阅读俱乐部为了在小说中突出重要的东西。由此可知选择C。
【48题详解】
推理判断题。第五段中的“Don’t get too concentrated on the details, because it will all be over before you know it. In the long run nobody, not even you, will remember the ordinary details because they are, in the end, quite irrelevant. ”根据第5段的描述可以推论:我们做事情时不要着眼于细节而是以全局为重。此处选择D。
【49题详解】
事实细节题。根据第六段的“We have read enough to know there are no collections where each story is perfect. Some of us hit. Some miss.”我们已经读得够多了,知道没有这样的作品集,作品集里每个故事都是完美的。我们中的一些人被困难击中了。有些人错过了。可推知,作者认为人生不是完美的,一些人成功,一些人失败。由此可知生活并不完美,生活中充满了曲折。分析选项(A我们的生活充满了曲折。B我们应该一生都在搜集故事C 我们的生活与书紧密相连D我们一生都该读书 )可知, A项符合题意。
【50题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段中的“In creating A.J. Fikry’s ordinary-yet-extraordinary life, the author Gabielle Zevin has thrown every clichés(老生常谈) into the mix.”可知作者是在介绍和评论一本书。结合上下文可知作者全篇文章都在描绘The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry这本书的角色、故事梗概以及寓意。句意:A有关A.J. Fikry的杰出生活B 生活中没有太迟的寓意教育C 对The Later Bloomer的评论D对A.J. Fikry生活故事这本书的评论。此处选择D。

The loss of handwriting in our high-tech world saddens me. People of all ages openly admit their handwriting as keyboards replace pen and paper. Increasingly, schoolchildren deal with assignments on computer and struggle to write, having had little practice. I am of the generation that learnt to write with a dip pen in kindergarten and a fountain pen in high school; by the time I reached university, like everyone else. I used a functional ballpoint. Handwriting has filled every aspect of my life since I was first taught to shape letters on the lined pages of my exercise books.
From the age of 12,I kept a handwritten journal, recording my thoughts and feelings regarding both the significant and mundane aspects of my life. Through this daily practice I connected with myself, explored experiences and found a way to interpret and make sense of my relationships. Although I rarely reread my written material, the process of writing has remained with me as a means of processing my feelings and filtering(过滤) my experiences.
Yet today, handwritten letters are as rare as a red panda. Few of us write any longer, even to those to whom we are close, We communicate difficultly when we e-mail or text, both methods characterized by speed and informality. The deep thinking which accompanied a handwritten letter is almost entirely absent. We may be communicating more frequently and with more people, but the depth and quality of our communication has reduced.
Sadly, modern technology tends to be temporary. Few of us keep old e-mails or even print them out, so a sense of history and memory is lost. Archivists(档案管理者)report that more information has been lost in the past decade than in the previous 150 years. It is too easy to press the delete button.
In many other areas of records, material is now in the digital format. Yet saving material in a digital format only is extremely unstable. How it will survive the future remains a problem.
In this digital world of text, e-mails and instant messaging, the perceived value of writing is no longer obvious and the case for retaining the practice of writing needs to be made. Should we save the bumble pen and paper when laptops and mobiles are functional, universal and unstoppable? Should children continue to be taught to write with a pen and paper?
With its passing a good mode of self-expression is being lost. I invite readers to engage with handwriting and become aware of this special skill that has created civilization for centuries.

In recent years, internet voting has become increasingly popular in China. People not only cast on-line votes themselves, but also urge others to vote for competitions like the “Most Beautiful Teacher” and the “Cutest Baby”.
Li Jiang, a high school student, is invited to vote in the “Best Police Officer” competition, organized by the local government to let the public have a better understanding of police officers’ daily work. Li Jiang visits the website and reads all the stories. He is deeply moved by their glorious deeds. He is already thinking of becoming a policeman himself in the future.
Su Hua is invited by his uncle to vote for his cousin in the “Future Singer” competition. He has already received three similar invitations this week. His uncle tells him that if his cousin wins the competition, the family will win an overseas tour for free. Su Hua likes his cousin very much, but he finds other singers perform even better. To vote, or not to vote? This is a question that troubles him very much.

【答案】Possible version one:
On-line voting becomes increasingly popular, and many competitions get people involved in it. It is beneficial to some people, while it puts others into a dilemma over whether to vote or not.
In my opinion, on-line voting is an inseparable part of modern life and should be welcomed, since it is no more than a way to participate in public life. It makes no difference from ordinary voting events, in which candidates go around to seek supports. In addition, the Internet makes surveying and voting easy and convenient, regardless of time and space. Furthermore, voting on the Internet makes instant feedback possible.
To be honest, voters sometimes feel annoyed, not because they hate voting, but because they are divided between emotion and fairness. Things will turn for the better if we can work out some participation rules for people to obey. Therefore, I hold a positive attitude towards on- line voting.
(150 words)
Possible version two:
Internet voting is quite popular nowadays. Many people are somewhat puzzled at the negative side of the voting, although some are quite happy with it, and active in doing it.
In my opinion, Internet voting has begun to show its negative impacts on people and society. Firstly, people may feel forced when asked to do things that they don’t want to. Secondly, voting of this kind does not depend on the strong points of the competitors, but rather on how many social-networking resources they have. Thirdly, the voters or even the competitors in many cases are possibly taken advantage of by the organizers for commercial purposes.
