单元导练
【例1】 I’d like to arrive 20 minutes early _____ I can have time for a cup of tea.
A.as soon as
B.as a result
C.in case
D.so that
解析：so that引导目的状语从句，意思是“以便”。句意为:以便有时间喝一杯茶。
答案：D
规律点拨
在目的状语从句中，that从句含有may，can，would等情态动词，so that则是“为了，以便”的意思;在结果状语从句中，则是“因此，以致”之意。
【例2】Professor Smith,along with his assistants,_____ on the project day and night to meet the deadline.
A.work
B.working
C.is working
D.are working
解析：在本句中尽管有along with his assistants，但是句子主语是Professor Smith，因而谓语动词应为C。
答案：C
规律点拨
主语后有with,along with,together with,as well as,but,except,besides,rather than,like,including等词时，谓语动词跟主语一致。
【例3】Tom,you ______ leave all your clothes on the floor like this.
A.wouldn’t
B.mustn’t
C.needn’t
D.may not
解析：mustn’t 后面接行为动词表示“禁止，不许”。句意为:汤姆，你不能像这样把衣服放在地板上。
答案：B
规律点拨
must表示强制性，常用在命令或者特殊要求中，表示“必须、绝对”，从而得出相对应的mustn’t的意思为“禁止、不许”，做题时可巧妙推出，比硬记好得多。
【例4】John,look at the time.______ you play the piano at such a late hour?
A.Must
B.Can
C.May
D.Need
解析：must表示“必须”。从后面的句子可以看出，说话人对这种行为表示困惑，感到不理解，“你非要在这个时间练琴吗？”
答案：A
规律点拨
命题者为了检测考生的应变能力和运用技巧，往往故意用熟悉的结构作陷阱，而答案又出人意料。Must you...?很常见，意思却是“不……难道不可以吗”“为什么偏偏……？”。
【例5】—Do you know where Tom is?Is he in London?
—I am sure he ______ be in London,for I just saw him ten minutes ago.
A.shouldn’t
B.mustn’t
C.can’t
D.wouldn’t
解析：根据“for I just saw him ten minutes ago.”推测，他没有走远,肯定不在伦敦，表示强烈的否定推测，所以选择C项。
答案：C
规律点拨
如果情态动词前面或后面有be sure,certain等词时，必须注意使用must或can’t,couldn’t，如果在句子前后有be not sure,uncertain或者perhaps,maybe,probably等词时，要注意选用might,may。
【例6】During these days I am looking forward to _____ my sweet heart,for I miss her very much.
A.hear
B.hearing
C.hear from
D.hearing from
解析：首先要确定“收到某人的来信”的两种说法:hear from sb.和get/receive a letter from sb.，然后再考虑短语look forward to，to为介词后面跟名词或者doing，所以选择D项。
答案：D
规律点拨
to为介词后面跟名词或者doing的短语是高考热点，这类词还有:be/get used to;get down to;be devoted to;belong to;come to;lead to;refer to;stick to;turn to;pay attention to等，注意一定不要将to看成不定式。
【例7】—What is your advice?
—_____ necessary,you’d better not refer to the dictionary.
A.If it
B.If it is
C.Unless
D.Unless it
解析：在本题中，if引导句子前后逻辑不通，应当排除，前面部分补充完整为:Unless it is necessary，省略it is，只有C项合适。
答案：C
规律点拨
省略是高考的难点，要弄清省略什么。当从句中的主语是it，谓语动词中又含有系动词 be时，可以把 it 和系动词be一起省略，此时构成“连词(if,unless,when,whenever,while)+形容词或者分词”结构。
【例8】 They are talking so warmly and it looks _______ they had been old friends.
A.even if
B.if
C.as though
D.as
解析：此题的语境是“看上去他们似乎是老朋友”。look as if/as though+从句，意思为:看上去似乎……，look为系动词，as if/as though+从句为表语从句。
答案：C
规律点拨
在as though引起的方式状语从句或者表语从句中，动词一般用虚拟语气。谓语常常用过去式表示现在的情况。表示“好像”，形式和wish宾语从句的形式相同。
【例9】 Miss Alice can’t help the house because she is busy making a cake in the kitchen.
A.to clean
B.cleaning
C.cleaned
D.be cleaned
解析：此题考查help作“帮助”解时，后面接不定式作宾语(带 to或者不带 to)，意义相同。
答案：A
规律点拨
由于定式思维的影响，而忽略can’t help还可以作“不能帮助”解。can’t help doing习惯用语，意思:情不自禁，类似有make friends do sth.叫朋友做某事;.make friends to do sth.交朋友来做某事。
【例10】 —How is your brother today?
—Oh,he _____ as ill as he does now for a long time.
A.didn’t feel
B.wasn’t feeling
C.doesn’t feel
D.hasn’t felt
解析：答话人拿现在的情况和最近的情况相比较“好长时间以来，他没有像今天这样难受了”。句子暗示了一段时间来的情况，所以用现在完成时。
答案：D
规律点拨
由于受now一词的影响，容易错选C项，A、B两项只能表示过去。因此我们不能只根据几个容易使我们犯错的副词进行简单的逻辑推理，应当读透所设的语言环境，体会说话人的某种态度或者感情。

第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下列短文，从每题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
I needed to get some money during my winter holidays.So after Christmas I took a job in the clothes department at Graham’s for the first fortnight of the January sale.I can’t say that I enjoyed it,but it was an experience I’ll never forget.
I could never understand why there were so many things in the sales;where did they all come from?Now I know the secret! Firstly,there is the special winter stock(货物)and the stock that people buy all the year round;some of these things are slightly reduced.Secondly,there are the summer clothes they couldn’t sell last year,these are heavily reduced to clear them.Thirdly,there are cheap clothes bought in specially for the sales;these are put out at high prices ten days before the sale begins and then are reduced by 60% in the sale.Clever! Later,they buy in “seconds” (clothes not in perfect condition) for the sale and they are sold very cheaply.
When I arrived half an hour before opening on the first day of the sale,there was already a queue around three sides of the building.This made me very nervous.
When the big moment arrived to open the doors,the security guards,looking less confident than usual,came up to them,keys in hand.The moment they had unlocked the doors,they hid behind the doors for protection as the noisy crowd charged in.I couldn’t believe my eyes;this wasn’t shopping,it was a battlefield! One poor lady couldn’t keep her feet and was knocked over by people pushing from behind.
Clothes were flying in all directions as people searched for the sizes,colors and styles they wanted.Quarrels broke out.Mothers were using their small children to crawl through people’s legs and get hold of things they couldn’t get near themselves.
Within minutes I had half a dozen people pushing clothes under my nose,each wanting to be the first served.Where had the famous English Queue gone?The whole day continued like that,but I kept my temper (脾气)！I was taking money hand over fist and began to realize why,twice a year,Graham’s were happy to turn their expensive store into a battlefield like this.
In the sale fever,people were spending money like water without thinking whether they needed what they were buying.As long as it was a bargain it was OK.
You won’t believe this but as soon as I got home I crashed out for four hours.Then I had dinner and went back to bed,fearing the sound of the alarm which would tell me to get ready for the second day of the sale.
56.What kind of clothes is likely to be sold 5% cheaper?
A.Last summer’s clothes.
B.Clothes not in perfect condition.
C.Clothes bought in specially for the sales.
D.Clothes for winter.

A.The customers gave up the queuing,for which the English are famous.
B.The customers kept their temper while looking for clothes they wanted.

答案：A
58.In the author’s opinion,why were Graham’s happy to make their expensive store into a “battlefield”?
A.There were too many clothes and they wanted to clear them in the sales.
B.They were eager to show that they were clever at doing business.
C.They could take the chance to raise the prices of all their clothes.

B
A holiday is any day when people lay aside their ordinary duties and cares.The word comes from Old English.At first,holidays honored some holy event or person.People in Great Britain and other countries speak of holidays as Americans speak of vacations.
Every nation has its special holidays.China observes New Year’s Day(January 1),May Day and National as legal holidays,as it was on Oct.1,1949 that People’s Republic of China was founded.The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.In the United States,congress has declared several as legal days such as New Year’s Day (January 1);Martin Luther King,Jr’s Birthday;Washington’s Birthday; Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day and so on.Some holidays celebrate special events in the development of a country,such as Greece’s Independence Day;Italy’s Liberation Day and India’s Independence Day.
In the States,banks and schools usually close on a legal holiday.When such a holiday falls on Sunday,the following Monday is usually observed. Schools and organizations often observe days known as traditional holidays,although schools and business do not close then.Those holidays include Valentine’s Day and Halloween.
60.Which of the following holidays has nothing to do with a country’s development?
A.China’s National Day
B.Valentine’s Day
C.Italy’s Liberty Day
D.America’s Independence Day
解析：这是一道细节题，从第二段中看出A、C、D三项与国家发展有关，而情人节属于生活节日。
答案：B
61.From the passage we can infer that _______.
A.Chinese will no longer observe the Spring Festival
B.students don’t have to go to school on any holiday
C.Chinese and Americans share at least one holiday
D.Americans can easily draw money from the banks on legal days
解析：这是一道推断题，先排除B项和D项，因为学生不是在任何节日都不上学，银行在法定节日休班，而中国和美国都过新年(New Year’s Day)。
答案：C
62.In the sentence “China observes New Year’s Day(January 1)”,“observe” means _____.
A.praise
B.spend
C.celebrate
D.care
解析：这是一道词义猜测题，下文中“The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.”提到。所以表示“庆祝”。
答案：C
C
X-rays were first discovered by a German scientist,Wilhelm Konrad Rontgen,in 1895,almost by accident.He and several other scientists were experimenting with passing electric currents through certain gases in a special glass tube from which the air had been moved.One day Rontgen noticed that,even when the tube was covered with black paper,some strange kind of radiation was coming through and making a screen nearby glow.Ronghen could not see anything coming out of the tube,but then he discovered that if he put the screen in the next room on the other side of a closed door,the rays could pass not only through black paper but also through wood.
The next thing he found out was that if he put his hand between the rays and a photographic plate,the rays would print a shadow of the bony framework of his hand on the plate.In fact,the rays could pass as easily through the fleshy part of his hand as through the black paper,but hardly at all through the bone.So Rontgen made the first Xray picture of a hand,showing just how the bones in the hand fit together.
63.What puzzled Rontgen one day during his experiment was _______.
A.some passing electric current
B.some radiation coming through the covered tube
C.the black-paper-covered tube
D.the screen nearby
解析：据第一段后半部分所描述内容可推知 “一些奇怪的射线冒出来”，使附近的荧光屏发光，但Rontgen看不见有东西冒出来，这当然会使他迷惑不解。
答案：B
64.The screen didn’t stop glowing even when _______.
A.it was moved to the next room
B.it was moved to the other side of the room
C.the door was closed
D.the black paper was moved from the tube
解析：文中谈到:当把荧光屏搬到隔壁去，射线仍然能穿过黑纸及木块来使荧光屏发光。
答案：A
65.The rays proved to be incapable of passing through _______.
A.wood
B.flesh
C.bone
D.black paper
解析：从第二段倒数第二句得到答案。
答案：C
66.Form the passage,we know X-rays are .
A.invisible
B.changeable
C.white
D.bright
解析：invisible “看不见的”,与题意相符。
答案：A
D
Years ago,when I started looking for my first job,wise advisers advised,“Barbara,be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.” How right they were!
“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” Wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough.It is the inner voice that whispers,“I can do it!” When others shout,“No,you can’t” It took years and years for the early work of Barbara Mclintock,a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine,to be generally accepted.Yet she didn’t stop working on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
We are all born with wide-eyed,enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air,whatever their age.At 90,cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach.As the music flowed through his fingers,his stooped shoulders would straighten and joy would reappear in his eyes.As author and poet Samuel Ulaman once wrote,“Years wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”
Enthusiastic people also love what they do,regardless of money or title or power.Patricia Mcllrath,retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Lamsas City,was once asked where she got her enthusiasm.She replied,“My father,a lawyer,long ago told me,I never made a dime until I stopped working for money.”
If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career,we can as a hobby,Elizabeth Layton of Wellsville,Kan,was 68 before she began to draw.This activity ended periods of depression that had troubled her for at least 30 years,and the quality of her work led one critic say,“I am tempted to call Layton a genius.”
We can’t afford to waste tears on “might-have-beens”.We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after “what-can-be”.We need to live each moment whole heartedly,with all our senses-finding pleasure in the sweet smell of a backyard garden,the simple picture of a six-year-old,the beauty of a rainbow.
67. The author holds the view that ______.
A.enthusiastic people will never get old
B.enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life
C.enthusiasm is more important than experience
D.enthusiasm can give people more success and fame
解析：总结全文可得结论:热情不仅对我们的工作而且对我们的生活都会产生积极的影响。
答案： B
68.Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?
A.Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.
B.If you don’t have enthusiasm,you can achieve nothing.
C.Enthusiastic people never consider money and fame.
D.Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.
解析：文章第二段通过基因学家Barbara McClintock的例子说明有了热情人们就不会在逆境中屈服、放弃。
答案：B
69.The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that ______.
A. music can arouse peoples enthusiasm
B.enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeed
C.enthusiasm can make people feel young
D.enthusiasm can keep people healthy
解析：文章第三段引用大提琴演奏家Pablo Casals九十岁高龄还充满热情的例子，说明有了热情，人们就不会在心理上衰老。
答案：C
70.How many examples are given in the passage to show the importance of enthusiasm?
A.Three
B.Two
C.Four
D.Five
解析：文章通过四个不同的例子论述了热情对人产生的影响。
答案：C
E
Awareness Weeks have become a regular part of Britain’s cultural landscape over the past few years. They started back in 1957,when one charity, Christian Aid,decided to make all its money—raising efforts on one time of year.It was thought that by doing this they would get more publicity for their cause.
They were right.And soon other charities and campaign groups followed them.These days,most donations to charity are not collected on the streets.So instead of just asking for money,charities prefer to spend their time “raising awareness” —spreading knowledge of the work they do or the cause they support.They also compete with businesses and trade groups who use awareness weeks as marketing campaigns for their products.
There are now 500 awareness weeks held every year in the UK.No week goes by without one group or another trying to make the British public aware of something,with most held in May or October.
The danger with all these awareness weeks is that people start to become cynical.Take National Smile Week,it seems like a great idea.Let’s all make each other’s life a little bit happier with a friendly smile.But really it’s just a group of dentists and cosmetics companies trying to sell us toothpaste.It’s enough to make you want to start National Forget About It Week.
“People feel that many awareness campaigns are just marketing exercises.” Says Mrs Ormiston,who edits the Awareness Campaign Register,a news letter which encourages people who run Awareness Weeks to become more aware of each other.But 90 percent of campaigns are run by traditional charities or not for groups to make money.
“There’s still no official group for awareness campaigns.”says Mrs Ormiston.“People can do what they like,whatever the size of their budgets or their public relations machines allows.”
This situation has led to calls for laws to stop real charities having their efforts overshadowed by marketing campaigns.This could be done by making the two groups hold their weeks at different times or stopping businesses running imitation charity campaigns.
But there is another way.Maybe it’s time for National Weak Awareness Week,especially for people whose awareness of Awareness Weeks is weak.
71.What’s the main purpose of awareness weeks run by charities in Britain?
A.To rise money for charities.
B.To spread knowledge of charities.
C.To take up marketing campaigns.
D.To advertise their goods for sale.
解析：慈善机构举办认识周的主要目的是给慈善机构筹集善款，虽然它同时也能增加自己的知名度。
答案：A
72.Why do people start to become cynical about awareness weeks?
A.Too many awareness weeks make people feel bored.
B.People feel many awareness weeks are just for marketing exercises.
C.People have a weak awareness of awareness weeks.
D.Awareness weeks are held too often and too much money is raised.
解析：文中第四、五段谈到:许多认识宣传活动已经变成了他的初衷，把它办成了一个专门的市场营销活动，专门推销某种产品，于是人们开始不信任这些活动。
答案：B
73.What does Mrs Ormiston think about awareness weeks.
A.Most of the awareness weeks should not be for making money.
B.Official groups should take the place of charities in awareness campaigns.
C.People can do what they like in awareness weeks.
D.People can get range budgets through awareness campaigns.
解析： Mr Ormiston 说此番话的主要目的是这些认识宣传活动不应只是为了赚钱，应该有法律来规范他们的行为，使它回到它的初衷上来。
答案：A
74.Which of the following is the right measure to be taken to solve the problems in awareness campaigns?
A.Laws should stop awareness weeks run by real charities.
B.There should be large public relations departments in awareness campaigns.
C.Business and awareness campaigns should not be held at the same place.
D.Marketing campaigns should not be held at the name of charity ones.[ZK)]
解析：见文章第七段，at the name of 打着……的名义，以……为名。
答案：D
75.What’s the writer’s view on Awareness Weeks?
A.National Forget About It Week should be held to stop awareness weeks.
B.National Smile Week is a great idea to improve people’s life
C.National Weak Awareness Week can help people better understand awareness weeks.
D.Awareness weeks should be stopped because of marketing campaigns.
解析：文中最后谈到:也许该举办National Weak Awareness Week，尤其是针对那些对Awareness Week缺乏了解的人。
答案：C

and other is quite small.He likes them very 77._______well.One morning,Mr King,one of his friends, 78._______
came to see him.When he saw two holes on 79._______
the wall—a big hole and a small one,he was 80._______

Black answered.“But doesnt one hole enough?” 83._______
asked for the friend.“Do you think that the big 84._______
cat can go over the small hole?” replied Mr Black. 85._______
答案与解析：
76. much→very very修饰形容词。
77.other前加the the other is...与one is...相对应。
78.well改为much 用very much修饰like，表示“非常喜欢”。
79.on→in 洞在墙上，用介词in而不用on。
80.√
81.surprising→surprised surprised修饰人。
82.去掉of out是副词，后面无需跟of。
83.doesn’t→isn’t〓isn’t表示状态。
84.去掉for
85.over→through 猫钻过洞而不是越过洞，所以用through而不用over。
第二节 书面表达(满分25分)
请写一篇100词左右的日记。日期为5月1日，星期日，晴。内容包括以下要点:
1.今天是国际劳动节，是一个重大的节日。
同朋友外出游览，上午去东湖公园玩耍，中午在树下野餐，餐后泛舟东湖。
2.上岸后遇见外国朋友。与他们打招呼，他们报以微笑;用英语同他们攀谈，他们很少说话。后来才知道他们是俄罗斯人，不太会说英语。
参考答案：
May 1st Wednesday Fine
Today is May Day,the International Labor Day.It is one of the biggest holidays in China.
In the morning my friends and I took a bus to the East Lake Park.We played all kinds of games there.
At noon,we had our picnic under a big tree.We all took out of favorite food and enjoyed it together.After picnicking,we went boating.It’s wonderful to row a boat in the lake.
When we got out of the boat,we met some foreign friends.We said hello to them,and they greeted us with smiles.We tried to talk with them in English,but they seldom gave response.Later we found they were Russians and could speak only a little English.
单元导练
【例1】 I’d like to arrive 20 minutes early _____ I can have time for a cup of tea.
A.as soon as
B.as a result
C.in case
D.so that
解析：so that引导目的状语从句，意思是“以便”。句意为:以便有时间喝一杯茶。
答案：D
规律点拨
在目的状语从句中，that从句含有may，can，would等情态动词，so that则是“为了，以便”的意思;在结果状语从句中，则是“因此，以致”之意。
【例2】Professor Smith,along with his assistants,_____ on the project day and night to meet the deadline.
A.work
B.working
C.is working
D.are working
解析：在本句中尽管有along with his assistants，但是句子主语是Professor Smith，因而谓语动词应为C。
答案：C
规律点拨
主语后有with,along with,together with,as well as,but,except,besides,rather than,like,including等词时，谓语动词跟主语一致。
【例3】Tom,you ______ leave all your clothes on the floor like this.
A.wouldn’t
B.mustn’t
C.needn’t
D.may not
解析：mustn’t 后面接行为动词表示“禁止，不许”。句意为:汤姆，你不能像这样把衣服放在地板上。
答案：B
规律点拨
must表示强制性，常用在命令或者特殊要求中，表示“必须、绝对”，从而得出相对应的mustn’t的意思为“禁止、不许”，做题时可巧妙推出，比硬记好得多。
【例4】John,look at the time.______ you play the piano at such a late hour?
A.Must
B.Can
C.May
D.Need
解析：must表示“必须”。从后面的句子可以看出，说话人对这种行为表示困惑，感到不理解，“你非要在这个时间练琴吗？”
答案：A
规律点拨
命题者为了检测考生的应变能力和运用技巧，往往故意用熟悉的结构作陷阱，而答案又出人意料。Must you...?很常见，意思却是“不……难道不可以吗”“为什么偏偏……？”。
【例5】—Do you know where Tom is?Is he in London?
—I am sure he ______ be in London,for I just saw him ten minutes ago.
A.shouldn’t
B.mustn’t
C.can’t
D.wouldn’t
解析：根据“for I just saw him ten minutes ago.”推测，他没有走远,肯定不在伦敦，表示强烈的否定推测，所以选择C项。
答案：C
规律点拨
如果情态动词前面或后面有be sure,certain等词时，必须注意使用must或can’t,couldn’t，如果在句子前后有be not sure,uncertain或者perhaps,maybe,probably等词时，要注意选用might,may。
【例6】During these days I am looking forward to _____ my sweet heart,for I miss her very much.
A.hear
B.hearing
C.hear from
D.hearing from
解析：首先要确定“收到某人的来信”的两种说法:hear from sb.和get/receive a letter from sb.，然后再考虑短语look forward to，to为介词后面跟名词或者doing，所以选择D项。
答案：D
规律点拨
to为介词后面跟名词或者doing的短语是高考热点，这类词还有:be/get used to;get down to;be devoted to;belong to;come to;lead to;refer to;stick to;turn to;pay attention to等，注意一定不要将to看成不定式。
【例7】—What is your advice?
—_____ necessary,you’d better not refer to the dictionary.
A.If it
B.If it is
C.Unless
D.Unless it
解析：在本题中，if引导句子前后逻辑不通，应当排除，前面部分补充完整为:Unless it is necessary，省略it is，只有C项合适。
答案：C
规律点拨
省略是高考的难点，要弄清省略什么。当从句中的主语是it，谓语动词中又含有系动词 be时，可以把 it 和系动词be一起省略，此时构成“连词(if,unless,when,whenever,while)+形容词或者分词”结构。
【例8】 They are talking so warmly and it looks _______ they had been old friends.
A.even if
B.if
C.as though
D.as
解析：此题的语境是“看上去他们似乎是老朋友”。look as if/as though+从句，意思为:看上去似乎……，look为系动词，as if/as though+从句为表语从句。
答案：C
规律点拨
在as though引起的方式状语从句或者表语从句中，动词一般用虚拟语气。谓语常常用过去式表示现在的情况。表示“好像”，形式和wish宾语从句的形式相同。
【例9】 Miss Alice can’t help the house because she is busy making a cake in the kitchen.
A.to clean
B.cleaning
C.cleaned
D.be cleaned
解析：此题考查help作“帮助”解时，后面接不定式作宾语(带 to或者不带 to)，意义相同。
答案：A
规律点拨
由于定式思维的影响，而忽略can’t help还可以作“不能帮助”解。can’t help doing习惯用语，意思:情不自禁，类似有make friends do sth.叫朋友做某事;.make friends to do sth.交朋友来做某事。
【例10】 —How is your brother today?
—Oh,he _____ as ill as he does now for a long time.
A.didn’t feel
B.wasn’t feeling
C.doesn’t feel
D.hasn’t felt
解析：答话人拿现在的情况和最近的情况相比较“好长时间以来，他没有像今天这样难受了”。句子暗示了一段时间来的情况，所以用现在完成时。
答案：D
规律点拨
由于受now一词的影响，容易错选C项，A、B两项只能表示过去。因此我们不能只根据几个容易使我们犯错的副词进行简单的逻辑推理，应当读透所设的语言环境，体会说话人的某种态度或者感情。

A
I needed to get some money during my winter holidays.So after Christmas I took a job in the clothes department at Graham’s for the first fortnight of the January sale.I can’t say that I enjoyed it,but it was an experience I’ll never forget.
I could never understand why there were so many things in the sales;where did they all come from?Now I know the secret! Firstly,there is the special winter stock(货物)and the stock that people buy all the year round;some of these things are slightly reduced.Secondly,there are the summer clothes they couldn’t sell last year,these are heavily reduced to clear them.Thirdly,there are cheap clothes bought in specially for the sales;these are put out at high prices ten days before the sale begins and then are reduced by 60% in the sale.Clever! Later,they buy in “seconds” (clothes not in perfect condition) for the sale and they are sold very cheaply.
When I arrived half an hour before opening on the first day of the sale,there was already a queue around three sides of the building.This made me very nervous.
When the big moment arrived to open the doors,the security guards,looking less confident than usual,came up to them,keys in hand.The moment they had unlocked the doors,they hid behind the doors for protection as the noisy crowd charged in.I couldn’t believe my eyes;this wasn’t shopping,it was a battlefield! One poor lady couldn’t keep her feet and was knocked over by people pushing from behind.
Clothes were flying in all directions as people searched for the sizes,colors and styles they wanted.Quarrels broke out.Mothers were using their small children to crawl through people’s legs and get hold of things they couldn’t get near themselves.
Within minutes I had half a dozen people pushing clothes under my nose,each wanting to be the first served.Where had the famous English Queue gone?The whole day continued like that,but I kept my temper (脾气)！I was taking money hand over fist and began to realize why,twice a year,Graham’s were happy to turn their expensive store into a battlefield like this.
In the sale fever,people were spending money like water without thinking whether they needed what they were buying.As long as it was a bargain it was OK.
You won’t believe this but as soon as I got home I crashed out for four hours.Then I had dinner and went back to bed,fearing the sound of the alarm which would tell me to get ready for the second day of the sale.
56.What kind of clothes is likely to be sold 5% cheaper?
A.Last summer’s clothes.
B.Clothes not in perfect condition.
C.Clothes bought in specially for the sales.
D.Clothes for winter.

A.The customers gave up the queuing,for which the English are famous.

A holiday is any day when people lay aside their ordinary duties and cares.The word comes from Old English.At first,holidays honored some holy event or person.People in Great Britain and other countries speak of holidays as Americans speak of vacations.
Every nation has its special holidays.China observes New Year’s Day(January 1),May Day and National as legal holidays,as it was on Oct.1,1949 that People’s Republic of China was founded.The Chinese have long celebrated the Chinese lunar year.In the United States,congress has declared several as legal days such as New Year’s Day (January 1);Martin Luther King,Jr’s Birthday;Washington’s Birthday; Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day and so on.Some holidays celebrate special events in the development of a country,such as Greece’s Independence Day;Italy’s Liberation Day and India’s Independence Day.
In the States,banks and schools usually close on a legal holiday.When such a holiday falls on Sunday,the following Monday is usually observed.

X-rays were first discovered by a German scientist,Wilhelm Konrad Rontgen,in 1895,almost by accident.He and several other scientists were experimenting with passing electric currents through certain gases in a special glass tube from which the air had been moved.One day Rontgen noticed that,even when the tube was covered with black paper,some strange kind of radiation was coming through and making a screen nearby glow.Ronghen could not see anything coming out of the tube,but then he discovered that if he put the screen in the next room on the other side of a closed door,the rays could pass not only through black paper but also through wood.
The next thing he found out was that if he put his hand between the rays and a photographic plate,the rays would print a shadow of the bony framework of his hand on the plate.In fact,the rays could pass as easily through the fleshy part of his hand as through the black paper,but hardly at all through the bone.So Rontgen made the first Xray picture of a hand,showing just how the bones in the hand fit together.
63.What puzzled Rontgen one day during his experiment was _______.
A.some passing electric current
B.some radiation coming through the covered tube
C.the black-paper-covered tube
D.the screen nearby

A.it was moved to the next room
B.it was moved to the other side of the room
C.the door was closed
D.the black paper was moved from the tube

答案：A
65.The rays proved to be incapable of passing through _______.
A.wood
B.flesh
C.bone
D.black paper
解析：从第二段倒数第二句得到答案。
答案：C
66.Form the passage,we know X-rays are .

C.white
D.bright

答案：A
D
Years ago,when I started looking for my first job,wise advisers advised,“Barbara,be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.” How right they were!
“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” Wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough.It is the inner voice that whispers,“I can do it!” When others shout,“No,you can’t” It took years and years for the early work of Barbara Mclintock,a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine,to be generally accepted.Yet she didn’t stop working on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
We are all born with wide-eyed,enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air,whatever their age.At 90,cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach.As the music flowed through his fingers,his stooped shoulders would straighten and joy would reappear in his eyes.As author and poet Samuel Ulaman once wrote,“Years wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”
Enthusiastic people also love what they do,regardless of money or title or power.Patricia Mcllrath,retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Lamsas City,was once asked where she got her enthusiasm.She replied,“My father,a lawyer,long ago told me,I never made a dime until I stopped working for money.”
If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career,we can as a hobby,Elizabeth Layton of Wellsville,Kan,was 68 before she began to draw.This activity ended periods of depression that had troubled her for at least 30 years,and the quality of her work led one critic say,“I am tempted to call Layton a genius.”
We can’t afford to waste tears on “might-have-beens”.We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after “what-can-be”.We need to live each moment whole heartedly,with all our senses-finding pleasure in the sweet smell of a backyard garden,the simple picture of a six-year-old,the beauty of a rainbow.
67. The author holds the view that ______.
A.enthusiastic people will never get old
B.enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life
C.enthusiasm is more important than experience
D.enthusiasm can give people more success and fame
解析：总结全文可得结论:热情不仅对我们的工作而且对我们的生活都会产生积极的影响。
答案： B
68.Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in the second paragraph?
A.Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.
B.If you don’t have enthusiasm,you can achieve nothing.
C.Enthusiastic people never consider money and fame.
D.Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.
解析：文章第二段通过基因学家Barbara McClintock的例子说明有了热情人们就不会在逆境中屈服、放弃。
答案：B
69.The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that ______.
A. music can arouse peoples enthusiasm
B.enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeed
C.enthusiasm can make people feel young
D.enthusiasm can keep people healthy
解析：文章第三段引用大提琴演奏家Pablo Casals九十岁高龄还充满热情的例子，说明有了热情，人们就不会在心理上衰老。
答案：C
70.How many examples are given in the passage to show the importance of enthusiasm?
A.Three
B.Two
C.Four
D.Five
解析：文章通过四个不同的例子论述了热情对人产生的影响。
答案：C
E
Awareness Weeks have become a regular part of Britain’s cultural landscape over the past few years. They started back in 1957,when one charity, Christian Aid,decided to make all its money—raising efforts on one time of year.It was thought that by doing this they would get more publicity for their cause.
They were right.And soon other charities and campaign groups followed them.These days,most donations to charity are not collected on the streets.So instead of just asking for money,charities prefer to spend their time “raising awareness” —spreading knowledge of the work they do or the cause they support.They also compete with businesses and trade groups who use awareness weeks as marketing campaigns for their products.
There are now 500 awareness weeks held every year in the UK.No week goes by without one group or another trying to make the British public aware of something,with most held in May or October.
The danger with all these awareness weeks is that people start to become cynical.Take National Smile Week,it seems like a great idea.Let’s all make each other’s life a little bit happier with a friendly smile.But really it’s just a group of dentists and cosmetics companies trying to sell us toothpaste.It’s enough to make you want to start National Forget About It Week.
“People feel that many awareness campaigns are just marketing exercises.” Says Mrs Ormiston,who edits the Awareness Campaign Register,a news letter which encourages people who run Awareness Weeks to become more aware of each other.But 90 percent of campaigns are run by traditional charities or not for groups to make money.
“There’s still no official group for awareness campaigns.”says Mrs Ormiston.“People can do what they like,whatever the size of their budgets or their public relations machines allows.”
This situation has led to calls for laws to stop real charities having their efforts overshadowed by marketing campaigns.This could be done by making the two groups hold their weeks at different times or stopping businesses running imitation charity campaigns.
But there is another way.Maybe it’s time for National Weak Awareness Week,especially for people whose awareness of Awareness Weeks is weak.
