正确答案：C

解析：根据句中的时间状语by next year(到明年)可知，此处表示在将来这一时间点前已经完成了某事，所以从句应用将来完成时，即“will have+过去分词”的形式。根据句意可知，work和complete之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，所以从句应用将来完成时的被动形式，即“will have been+过去分词”的形式。故选C。

10． He hurried to the airport only______that the flight had just taken off. A．to be told B．to tell C．told D．telling

正确答案：A

解析：不定式作结果状语表示出乎意料的结果，不定式前常加上only以示强调，也可将“only to do sth．”视为固定用法；现在分词作结果状语主要表示一种顺承的因果关系。根据句意可知，本句表达的是出乎意料的结果，所以应用不定式。根据句意可知，He和tell之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以应用不定式的被动式，即“to be+过去分词”的形式。故选A。

A．visited B．had visited C．would visit

16． I have no objection to______your design for the new type of machine this time.

A．adopt B．adopting

C．having adopted D．have adopted

正确答案：B

解析：objection to中的to为介词，后面应跟名词或动名词，所以可排除选项A、D。根据句意可知，adopt所表示的动作还未发生，因此不能用完成式，可排除选项C。故选B。

正确答案：C

解析：complement：补充，补足；supplement：补充物，补充；compliment：称赞，赞美；compound：合成，混合。根据句意可知，选C。

18． A country______ birth rate is higher than its death rate will have an increasing population.

A．where B．which C．that D．whose

正确答案：D

解析：分析句子结构可知，country和will之间为定语从句，空处在定语从句中充当birth rate的定语，所以关系词应用表示所有关系的whose。综合考虑上述因素，选D。

19． If you don’t agree with me, ______. A．neither they will B．so won’t they C．neither will they D．so they won’t neither

正确答案：C

解析：当前面所述情况也适用于后者时，后面常用so(肯定句)，neither／nor(否定句)来引导，且句子应倒装。由句中的don’t可知，前面的条件状语从句是否定句，所以主句应用neither或nor引起倒装，且应用情态动词will表将来。故选C。

20． Aunt Sharon looks sleepy. She______to bed very late last night. A．mustn’ t have gone B．must have gone C．would have gone D．should have gone

正确答案：B

解析：没有mustn’t have done这种用法；must have done表示对过去情况的肯定推测，意为“一定做了……”；would have done表示对过去情况的虚拟，意为“(过去)会做……”；should have done表示“本应该做某事，而实际上却未做”，常含有责备、懊悔之意。根据句意可知，选B。

21． —Where are you going, Tom? —To Bill’ s workshop. The engine of my car needs______.

A．repairing B．repaired C．repair D．to repair

正确答案：A

解析：当need，want，require这三个词作“需要”讲，且其前面的主语是指物的名词或代词时，其后常用动名词的主动形式或不定式的被动形式作宾语，所以空处可用repairing或to be repaired。故选A。

22． He was very excited to read the news ______ Mo Yan had won the Nobel Prize for literature.

A．which B．what C．how D．that

正确答案：D 解析：分析句子结构可知，空处引导的是同位语从句，是对抽象名词news(消息)的解释说明，所以应用在从句中不充当语法成分，只起连接作用的that。故选D。

23． Chinese people spend______money on traveling today as they did ten years ago.

A．more than twice B．as twice much C．twice as much D．twice more than

正确答案：C

解析：英语中表示倍数时，可以用“倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as”结构表示；也可以用“倍数+形容词或副词的比较级+than”表示。因为本题空处之后有as，所以应该用第一种结构表示。故选C。

24． ______from Buckingham Palace, this trip takes you to the best of London’ s sights.

A．Beginning B．Begun C．To begin

D．Having begun

正确答案：A

解析：本题考查非谓语动词作状语。根据句意可知，this trip和begin之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，begin所表示的动作和take所表示的动作没有明显的先后顺序，所以应用现在分词。现在分词的完成式(having+过去分词)表示这个动作发生在主句谓语动词所表示的动作之前，且有明显的先后顺序，不符合题意，所以可排除D项；过去分词作状语时，该动作和句子的主语是动宾关系，表示被动和完成，不符合题意，所以可排除B项；动词不定式作状语时，常表示目的、结果等，不符合题意，所以可排除C项。故选A。

25． Before leaving the village, he visited the old house______he spent his childhood.

A．in which B．which C．to which D．at which

正确答案：A

解析：分析句子结构可知，空处引导的是一个定语从句，修饰表示地点的先行词the old house，从句中缺少地点状语，所以空处应用关系副词where或in which，在从句中作地点状语，相当于in the house。故选A。

26． After you have finished reading the book, please just put it back______it belongs.

A．where B．which C．what D．that

正确答案：A

解析：分析句子结构可知，空处引导的是一个地点状语从句。再根据句意可知，从句中缺少的是地点状语，所以应用where引导。which，what，that均不能引导地点状语从句。故选A。

27． ______amazed me most was that the young boy who had lost both arms in an accident could handle a pen with his feet.

A．That B．It

C．Which D．What

正确答案：D

解析：分析句子结构可知，was之前为主语从句，从句成分不完整，缺少主语，因此应用连接代词what来引导从句。故选D。

28． ______money, she is quite rich. However, this does not mean that she is happy.

A．Concerning B．As to

C．In terms of D．In the light of

正确答案：C

34． The boy has admitted to______the window while playing football yesterday.

A．breaking B．have broken C．break

D．be breaking

正确答案：A

解析：admit to后接动名词或名词作宾语。根据句意可知，The boy和admit为逻辑上的主谓关系，因此应用动名词的一般式。故选A。

C．does D．would do

正确答案：A

解析：在“It is high／about time(that)…(该到……的时候了)”句型中，从句要用虚拟语气，即谓语动词要用过去式或“should+动词原形”的形式，should不能省略。故选A。

38． ______harder, you could have passed this exam. A．Were you worked B．Had you worked C．If you worked

D．If you have worked

正确答案：B 解析：根据句意可知，逗号前面是一个非真实条件句。由主句中的could have passed可知，从句是对过去情况的虚拟，其完整表达为“If you had worked harder”，If可以省略，此时需将助动词had提至主语you之前。故选B。

39． —Can I still get tickets for tonight’ s show? —______Only if somebody cancels.

A．Here you are. B．That’ s all right. C．I am afraid not.

D．Which row would you like?

正确答案：C

正确答案：B

解析：在insist，suggest，advise，demand，order等表示“要求、建议、命令”等含义的动词后面所跟的宾语从句中要用虚拟语气，从句的谓语动词应用“should+动词原形”的形式，should可以省略。故选B。

46． I’m sorry I have made so many mistakes. I wish I______. A．didn’t B．hadn’t C．wouldn’t D．won’t

正确答案：B

解析：根据句意并分析句子结构可知，第二句包含了一个宾语从句，因为从句位于动词wish之后，所以从句应用虚拟语气。根据前面的句子可知，从句是对过去情况的假设，所以谓语动词应用“had+过去分词”的形式。由句意可知，本句中应用“hadn’t made”，因为made与前面的made重复，因此可省略。故选B。

47． Obviously they didn’ t see the significance of the plan. That’ s______the problem was.

A．where B．why

C．/ D．how

正确答案：A 解析：分析句子结构可知，空处引导的是表语从句，且在从句中作地点状语，只有where符合题意。故选A。

48． It was______ he arrived home ______ he realized that he had left his keys in the office.

A．until: that B．not until: had C．until: had D．not until: that

正确答案：D 解析：在强调“not．．．until．．．”句型中表示时间状语的until短语或从句时，要用固定的强调句型“It is／was not until+被强调部分+that+其他部分”。本句强调的是时间状语until he arrived home，对此进行强调时，应将not置于被强调部分里面。故选D。

49． He insisted on his name______in full. A．write

B．was written C．be written D．being written

正确答案：D

解析：insist on doing sth．为固定用法，意为“坚持做某事”，所以空处应用动名词形式。而且his name和write之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以此处应用动名词的被动形式。故选D。

50． All I can do now is nothing______. A．but waiting B．but wait

C．except waiting D．only to wait

正确答案：B

解析：do nothing but为固定句型，意为“只能做”。若but前面的动词部分有do的某种形式，则but后面的to要省略，直接跟动词原形；若前面没有do的某种形式，则but后应加上to。由句中的do可知，but之后要用省略to的不定式。故选B。

51． The reason why they changed their mind______to us yet.

A．has not explained

B．has not been explained C．did not explain D．was not explained

正确答案：B

解析：由句中的yet可知，主句应用现在完成时，表示说话时已经做完了某事，着眼点在现在。而且reason和explain之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以应用现在完成时的被动语态。故选B。

52． I need one more stamp before my collection______. A．has completed B．completes

C．will be completed D．is completed

正确答案：D

解析：before：在……之前，引导时间状语从句，从句常用一般现在时表示将来，因此排除选项A、C。根据句意可知，collection和complete之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以要用被动形式。故选D。

A．to be invented

B．having been invented C．invented

D．to have been invented

正确答案：D

解析：be thought to do为固定搭配，意为“被认为”。根据句意可知，动词不定式中invent所表示的动作发生在is thought所表示的动作之前。且invent和The Bunsen Burner是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以要用不定式的完成被动式，即用“to have been+过去分词”的形式。故选D。

54． The old man______since he came into the hospital. A．has taken good care of

B．has been taken good care of C．has taken good care

D．has been taken good care

正确答案：B

解析：take care of为固定搭配，意为“照顾”。由since引导的时间状语中的动词came into可知，主句应用现在完成时，表示过去发生的事情对现在仍有影响。根据句意可知，take care of和The old man之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，所以

要用被动形式。故选B。

55． If only you______him what I said! Everything would have been all right. A．do not tell B．would not tell C．have not told D．had not told

正确答案：D

解析：根据句意并分析句子结构可知，前一句是if only引导的感叹句，应用虚拟语气。根据从句what I said可知，前一句是对过去情况的假设，所以应用过去完成时，即谓语动词用“had+过去分词”的形式。故选D。

57． The size of the audience, ______we had expected, was well over two thousand.

A．that B．who C．whom D．as

正确答案：D 解析：根据句意并分析句子结构可知，空处引导的是非限制性定语从句，that不能引导非限制性定语从句，排除A项；who，whom只能引导先行词指代人的定语从句，与题意不符，应排除；关系代词as引导非限制性定语从句时，指代整个主句的内容，可以在从句中作成分，引导的从句可以位于句首、句中或句末，符合题意。故选D。

Reading Comprehension

We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we do look back, it’ s already too late. Why do we go wrong about our friends—or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don’ t really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone says to you, “ You are a lucky dog. “ That’ s being friendly. But there is a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn’ t see it himself. But bringing in the “dog” bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn’ t think you deserve your luck. “Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn’ t important. It’ s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven’ t got a date for a Saturday night.

How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’ s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.

61． According to this passage, the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that______.

A．even friends are annoyed when we check what they say B．people usually state one thing and mean another C．we fail to listen carefully when others talk D．we tend to doubt what our friends say

正确答案：B

解析：根据第二段第二、三句”Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning…”可知，有时候人们所说的话言不由衷，如果我们不仔细倾听、揣摩，就会造成误解。故选B。

62． “You’ re a lucky dog” probably conveys the meaning that______. A．you’ re a friendly person B．you’ re envious of others C．you do not deserve the luck

D．you should thank others for your luck

正确答案：C

解析：根据第二段最后一句“What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck．”可知，当对方说“你真是个幸运儿”时，他的真实意思可能是他认为你不该得到这份幸运。故选C。

63． In the sentence “Maybe he doesn’ t see it himself. “ (Para. 2) , “it” refers to______.

A．being friendly B．a bit of envy C．lucky dog D．your luck

正确答案：B

解析：根据第二段倒数第三、四句“But there is a bit of envy in those words．Maybe he doesn’t see it himself．”可知，当他说这些话的时候，是带点嫉妒情绪在里面的，但是可能他自己都没意识到这一点。由此可推知，it指的是“a bit of envy(一点点的嫉妒情绪)”。故选B。

64． According to the last paragraph, what can you do to save another mistake?

A．Spend time thinking about what people really mean. B．Take a good look at the person talking. C．Focus on the look in the speaker’ s eyes. D．Try to catch every word of the speaker.

正确答案：A

解析：根据最后一段最后一句“The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake．”可知，花时间思考对方说话的真实意图，这样能避免你再犯错误。故选A。

65． This passage is mainly about______. A．why we misunderstand what people say B．how to behave when we listen to others

C．why we sometimes go wrong with our friends or enemies D．how to avoid mistakes when we communicate with people

正确答案：D

解析：文章首先指出我们经常会犯错误，由此引发了误解，接着讲述了造成误解的原因及解决办法。由此可推知，文章主要讲述的是如何在与他人交流中避免误解。故选D。

Moods, say the experts, are emotions that tend to become fixed, influencing one’ s outlook for hours, days or even weeks. That’ s great if your mood is a pleasant one, but a problem if you are sad, anxious, angry or simply lonely. Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out: sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Modern pharmacology (药物学) offers a lot of tranquilizers (镇静剂), antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs. What many people don’t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug approaches to make you free from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being non-poisonous. So next time you feel out of sorts, don’ t head for the drug-store, try the following approach. Of all the mood-altering self-help techniques, aerobic exercise seems to be the most efficient cure for a bad mood. “If you could keep the exercise, you’ d be in high spirits. “ Says Kathryn Lance, author of Running for Health and Beauty. Researchers have explained biochemical and various other changes that make exercise compared favorably to drugs as a mood-raiser. Physical exertion such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercise—running, cycling, walking, swimming or other repetitive and tamed activities that boost the heart rate, increase circulation (血液循环) and improve the body ‘ s utilization of oxygen. Do them for at least 20 minutes a session, three of five times a week.

66． What is the main subject of the passage? A．How to beat a bad mood.

B．How to do physical exercise. C．How to talk bad moods out.

D．How to get involved in aerobic exercise.

正确答案：A

解析：通读全文可知，本文在第一段提出观点：一个人有好心情则好；如果有不良情绪，就会成为问题。在第二段中提出避免不良情绪的最好方法不是通过药物。第三、四段重点介绍了有氧运动这一方法。选项A“怎样战胜不良情绪”，符合题意。故选A。

67． It can be inferred from the passage that______.

A．the best way to overcome a bad mood is to talk to oneself

B．when one is in a bad mood, he or she may not work very efficiently C．some drugs are more effective than physical exercise D．a person can make a big profit if he is in a good mood

正确答案：A

解析：根据第二段第一句“Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out；sometimes，though，there is no one to listen．”可知，也许解决这些不良情绪的最好方法是把它们说出来，虽然有时可能没有人听你说。由此可推知，当采用倾诉的方式宣泄不良情绪时，可能只有自己是听众。故选A。

68． “Feel out of sorts” in the second paragraph could be best replaced by “______”.

A．put things in order B．be in a bad mood

解析：根据第四段第二句“Physical exertion such as housework，however，does little．”可知，做家务之类的体力劳动很少有效果，因此，选项A错误。根据第三段第二句“If you could keep the exercise，you’d be in high spirits．”可知，

选项B正确；根据第四段第三句“The key is aerobic exercise--running，cycling，walking，swimming…”可知，选项C正确；根据第二段第四句“These can be just as useful as drugs，and have the added benefit of being non-poisonous．”可知，这些非药物的方法同时兼有无毒的好处，此处暗示抗焦虑的药物是有毒性的，因此选项D正确。故选A。

Crime is a serious problem in Britain. One sort of crime which particularly worries people is juvenile crime—that is, crimes committed by young people. For some years, juvenile crime has been increasing. There are two main sorts of juvenile crime: stealing and violence. Most people do not understand why young people commit these crimes. There are, I think, a large number of different reasons. These crimes are not usually committed by people who are poor or in need. Young people often dislike and hate the adult world. They will do things to show that they are rebels. Also in Britain today it is easier for young people to commit crimes because they have more freedom to go where they like and more money to do what they like. There are two other possible causes which are worth mentioning. More and more people in Britain live in large towns. In a large town no one knows who anyone else is or where they live. But in the village I come from crimes are rare because everyone knows everybody else. Although it is difficult to explain, I think the last cause is very important. Perhaps there is something wrong with our society which encourages violence and crime. It is a fact that all the crime children are exposed to films and reports about crime and violence. Many people do not agree that this influences the young people, but I think that young people are very much influenced by the society they grow in. I feel that the fault may be as much with our whole society as with these young people.

A．the causes of juvenile crimes B．the rise of the crime rate

73． According to the passage, which groups of the following young people are LEAST likely to commit crimes?

A．Those living in big cities.

B．Those living in the countryside. C．Those who are very poor.

From good reading we can derive pleasure, companionship, experience, and instruction. A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading, our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction. With a good book in hand we need never be lonely. Whether the characters portrayed are taken from real life or are purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pages of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because they resemble human friends whom we hold dear or because they represent unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. Our human friends sometimes may bore us, but friends we make in books need never weary us with their company. By turning the pages we can dismiss them without any fear of hurting their feelings. When human friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy and encouragement. One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experience. Few of us travel far from home or have a wide range of experiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travel by book we need no bank account to pay for our way, no airship or ocean liner or streamlined train to transport us, no passport to enter the land of our heart’ s desire. Through books we may get the thrill of hazardous adventure without danger. We can climb lofty mountains or cross the scorching sands of the desert, all without hardship. Indeed, through books the whole world is ours for the asking. The possibilities of our literary experiences are almost unlimited. The beauties of nature, the enjoyment of music, the treasures of art, the triumphs of architecture, the marvels of engineering,

are all open to the wonder and enjoyment of those who read.

Translation

Section ADirections: Translate the following English into Chinese.

81． As the world is getting more and more densely populated, air pollution has become a severe problem. Air pollution mainly derives from four major human activity sectors: industry, energy, transportation and agriculture. Energies are needed to run factories, to power trains, planes and buses. Nearly all of these energies are produced by burning fuels, which would cause air pollution. Scientists are studying new ways of generating electricity that can be less damaging to the environment. The increased public environmental awareness has led to the advent of activities such as recycling.

正确答案：随着世界人口越来越密集，空气污染已经成为一个严重的问题。空气污染主要来源于四个主要的人类活动领域：工业、能源业、交通运输业以及农业。经营工厂以及为火车、飞机和公共汽车提供动力都需要能源。几乎所有这些能源都是通过燃烧燃料产生的，这就会造成空气污染。科学家们正在研究能减少环境破坏的新发电方式。公共环保意识的增强使诸如回收利用等活动出现了。

Writing

82． For this part, you are required to write a composition of 120 to 180 words. Your writing should be based on the title and outline given below.Should Customers

Buy Cut-price Products?1．现在许多人都喜欢买打折商品；2．而另一些人认为越是打折的商品越不能买；3．你的看法。

正确答案： Should Customers Buy Cut-price Products? When asked about whether customers should buy cut-price products, different people offer different views. Some people like to buy cut-price products since a discount is a great appeal. However, others maintain that it’ s not a wise and rational idea to buy discount products. Those people who make the former choice believe they can save themselves a lot of money by buying cut-price products. In addition, they can use less money to buy more products. However, still others hold different views. They think the discount is merely a business means of attracting customers and enhancing their desires for purchase. Besides, they argue that the discount always tempts customers to buy something unnecessary. As for me, I tend to refuse to buy cut-price products. For one thing, complaints about cut-price products rank first in recent days according to the newspapers. For another, cut-price products are usually not provided with an after-sales service, such as three guarantees for products. Considering these, we may reasonably conclude that customers should think carefully before they buy cut-price products.
