第二部分:詞匯知識運用(共兩節,滿(mǎn)分40分)

例:To make members of a team perform better, the trainer first of all has to know their and weaknesses. A. strengths B. benefits C. techniques D. values 答案是A
21. This restaurant has become popular for its wide of foods that suit all tastes and pockets.
A. division B. area C. range D. circle
答案: B
考點(diǎn):名詞/名詞短語(yǔ)
解析:此題不僅考察學(xué)生對于四個(gè)選項的認知,更重要的是要理解句子的含義?!斑@家餐館越來(lái)越出名 是由于它做的各種各樣的食物適應各種類(lèi)型人群?!薄?/span>a range of ”強調一個(gè)系列,而“a wide range of”意為“各種各樣的”。正好符合題意。從句子結構來(lái)講,這個(gè)句子屬于典型的“從句套從句”?!?/span>for”引導原因狀語(yǔ)從句,“that”引導定語(yǔ)從句。
22. After the earthquake, the first thing the local government did was to provide for the homeless families.
A. accommodation B. occupation C. equipment D. furniture.
答案: D [ks5u. com]
考點(diǎn):名詞
解析:512的汶川地震,414玉樹(shù)地震。天災“earthquake”相信是很多考生都準備過(guò)的一個(gè)話(huà)題。所以相關(guān)詞匯“accommodation”表示“住處”應該是考生們準備的系列詞匯之一。這道題難度不大 ,句子結構也相對 簡(jiǎn)單。只要背過(guò)這幾個(gè)詞,知道“occupation”表示“占用”或者“工作,職業(yè)”;“furniture”表示“ 家具 ”;“equipment”表示“設備,器材”就能選出正確答案D了?! ?/span>
23. In this lecture, I can only give you a purely view of how we can live life to the full and make some suggestions about the future.
A. private B. personal C. unique D. different
答案:B
考點(diǎn):形容詞詞義辨析
解析:根據詞義可以快速排除A和D。A表示“獨特的”,D表示“不同的”,只有B和C比較接近。 “private”表示“私人的,私下的, “personal”表示“個(gè)人的”, personal view才能表示“個(gè)人觀(guān)點(diǎn)”
24. Mistakes don’t just happen; they occur for a reason. Find out the reason and then making the mistake becomes .
A. favourable B. precious C. essential D. worthwhile
答案:D
考點(diǎn):形容詞詞義辨析,同時(shí)也涉及到構詞法
解析: “worthwhile”表示“值得的,有價(jià)值的”表示犯錯誤是值得的。A表示“喜愛(ài)的,贊同的”,B“珍貴的”C“本質(zhì)的”,只要知道詞義,并聯(lián)系生活常識,該題還是很容易得出答案的。
25. If I find someone who looks like the suspect, my reaction will be to tell the police.
A. physical B. immediate C. sensitive D. sudden
答案:B
考點(diǎn):考查形容詞詞義辨析
解析:根據詞義可得出答案。 “physical”表示“身體的”; “sudden”表示“突然的”; “sensitive”表示“敏感的”,只有 “immediate”表示“立刻,馬上”,等同于 “at once”. 故選B
26. I wasn’t blaming anyone; I said errors like this could be avoided.
A. merely B. mostly C. rarely D. nearly
答案: A
考點(diǎn):考查副詞詞義辨析
解析:這道題可能會(huì )讓一部分同學(xué)郁悶一小下。形近詞的辨析歷來(lái)是備受考試青睞的一種考法。乍一眼看上去,這四個(gè)詞都是以ly結尾,又都是6個(gè)字母組成,實(shí)在難以辨識。此時(shí)的考生,需要冷靜下來(lái)。分析這里的每 個(gè)副詞分別是由哪個(gè)形容詞變化而來(lái),而其形容詞的含義實(shí)際上和其副詞的含義相差無(wú)幾?!?/span>most”(大部分),所以“mostly”(大部分地,通常地); “near”(臨近)“nearly”(幾乎)= almost; rare(稀有的)“rarely”(很少地,幾乎不);“mere”(僅僅,只 不過(guò))“merely”(僅僅,只不過(guò))。全句意思“我并沒(méi)有責 怪任何人,我只是說(shuō)類(lèi)似這種錯誤是可以避免的”。
27. Duty is an act or a course of action that people you to take by social customs, law or religion.
A. persuade B. request C. instruct D. expect
答案: D
考點(diǎn):考查固定句型
解析:expect sb. to do. “期待/希望某人做某事”。
28. Just as the clothes a person wears, the food he eats and the friends with whom he spends his time, his house his personality.
A. resembles B. strengthens C. reflects D. shapes
答案: C
考點(diǎn):考查動(dòng)詞詞義辨析
解析:“就好像一個(gè)人穿什么,吃什么,以及和什么樣的人交往能反映人的個(gè)性一樣,一個(gè)人的住房也是如此?!币x一個(gè)表示“反映”的詞,就是reflect. “resemble” = look like; “strengthen”表示“加強,鞏固”;“shape”作動(dòng)詞表示“塑形”.
29. Had he her promise, she would have made it to
A. looked up to B. lived up to
C. kept up with D. come up with
答案:B
考點(diǎn):動(dòng)詞詞組辨析
解析:湖北每年考試的單選最后兩題通常比較難。該題的難點(diǎn)不僅僅在于這四個(gè)詞組的辨析,更主要的是考生要讀得懂這個(gè)句子的意思。該句是典型的虛擬語(yǔ)氣, “if” 引導的非真實(shí)條件句的倒裝句,描述的事于過(guò)去事實(shí)是相反的?!叭绻斈曷男辛俗约旱闹Z言,她就會(huì )進(jìn)入耶魯大學(xué)了?!?/span>look up to(抬頭看,尊重)keep up with(跟上,追上)come up with(追趕上;想出;提出),只有live up to(履行,實(shí)行)符合題意。
30. It is illegal for a public official to ask people for gifts or money favors to them.
A. in preference to B. in place of
C. in agreement with D. in exchange for
答案:D
考點(diǎn):詞組辨析
解析:先理解短語(yǔ)的意思. In preference to(優(yōu)先于);in place of(代替);in agreement with(同意,與…一致);in exchange for(交換)。其實(shí)辨析這幾個(gè)介詞短語(yǔ)的難度不大,只需要認識每一個(gè)短語(yǔ)中的核心詞preference, exchange, place, agreement的意思即可,猜測較為容易。
總體而言,這次的詞匯題沿襲往年風(fēng)格,并沒(méi)有標新立異。難度適中,只需考生的背熟考綱要求的詞匯的基礎上,掌握基本的近義詞和形近詞的辨析能力即可。
值得一提的是,瑞瑞這個(gè)題型旨在考察詞匯,然而如果考生們平時(shí)注意詞匯的積累,只是單純知道每個(gè)單詞的含義,而并 未仔細牢記它們的使用環(huán)境?;蛘哒f(shuō)是對句型的理解有限,長(cháng)難句不知如何分析的話(huà),恐怕在做這類(lèi)題的時(shí)候也容易丟分。
通過(guò)筆者的觀(guān)察,此次詞匯題的難度和筆者所教授的新概念英語(yǔ)第二冊難度相當,并且很多知識點(diǎn),比如21題,22題,23題,25題的詞匯,27題, 29題, 30題的短語(yǔ)和句型都是咱們新概念二冊課堂上講過(guò)的重點(diǎn)。其實(shí),一本好的教材需要的不僅僅是大家的閱讀,更重要的是 要從中提煉出有用的語(yǔ)言點(diǎn),反復咀嚼,消化,以達到運用自如的效果為最終目的。
第二節:完型填空(共20小題;每小題1. 5分,滿(mǎn)分30分)
閱讀下面短文,從短文后所給各題的四個(gè)選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

解析:今年的完形填空的文章原型來(lái)源于一片叫作“The Blind Bus Passenger”的文章。講的是一個(gè)盲人乘客的故事。20道題的設置基本考察了學(xué)生對于文章的理解能力,和根據上下文理解單句的能力。期間也涉及到一些基本語(yǔ)法問(wèn)題,比如從句,被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài),固定搭配以及動(dòng)詞短語(yǔ)的選擇。
比如31題,考生要知道盲人是看不見(jiàn)的,所有的動(dòng)作都是靠摸索的,其實(shí)這是常識問(wèn)題,據此可知應該選擇“feel”(摸索,感知), 而不應該是“有目的”地去“touch”(觸碰);
32 盲人陷入到黑暗的世界,這種表達在中文里面我們也使用,所以明顯應該是“a world of darkness”;
33 單純考察詞匯,sink into hopeless, 描述人陷入到絕望之中,“sink”表示下沉,和人陷入絕望的狀態(tài)是符 合的。[來(lái)源: Ks5u. com]
34 be determined to do sth. 這是新概念二冊中的重點(diǎn)句型,下決心做某事,當然你也可以用 make up one’s mind to do sth.
35 人殘志不殘,她想回到工作之中去,作返回來(lái)講return 是一個(gè)不及物動(dòng)詞,因為選D。
36. 考察形容詞。Frightened表示恐懼
37. volunteer表示志愿去幫助Susan,現在很流行志愿者,所以大家不會(huì )對這個(gè)詞感到陌生。
38. Until在這里是連詞,引導時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句。狀語(yǔ)從句是重點(diǎn)語(yǔ)法,大家要注意學(xué)習了
39. accompany表示“陪伴”,既然Mark是來(lái)幫助Susan的,顯然就來(lái)陪伴她的
40. 盲人失去的是 “sight”實(shí)力,其它的sense(感覺(jué))還是存在的
41. 簡(jiǎn)單的詞匯辨析題,盲人需要適應的是新的environment(環(huán)境),而不是新的position(位置)等到
42. on one’s own表示“靠某人自己”本文一直都是在表?yè)P這位盲人的毅力和堅持,希望能夠靠自己來(lái)維持自己的正常生活。
43. 試想,擁抱自己的丈夫,而且是在分別的時(shí)候,感慨萬(wàn)千的時(shí)候,應該有的動(dòng)作當然是 “tightly”(緊緊的),而不是其它的類(lèi)似于politely(禮貌的)
44. 在接受了別人的幫助后,Susan終于要獨自一人登上旅程了。他們各自走各自的路, “separate”表示“分別的”,其實(shí)她的背后有很多默默支持她的人,顯然不是 “l(fā)onely”(孤獨的)這樣的詞
45. take hold of(吸引); take place of(代替);take charge of(掌管);take advantage of(利用)
46. as usual(像往常一樣),表示經(jīng)常發(fā)生的動(dòng)作再次發(fā)生
47. envy(嫉妒,羨慕)仔細閱讀下面的文章,不難發(fā)現,司機是準備告訴Susan一個(gè)秘密。也就是要告訴她有很多人在默默地支持和關(guān)懷她。所以,根據上下文的理解,可以知道此刻司機是要表達一種羨慕嫉妒之情,也是對Susan的一種寬慰
48. 幾個(gè)疑問(wèn)詞的選擇,不難。
49. 在過(guò)于的幾個(gè)星期中,英文應該是 “for the past week” “next”表示的是下周,還沒(méi)發(fā)生的事情是不可能用完成時(shí)的,而且 “for”+一段時(shí)間,是現在完成時(shí)的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)標志
50. sight表示“視力”。文中指的是,Susan雖然失去了視力,但是獲得了更多寶貴的東西。
第三部分:閱讀理解(共20小題:每小題2分,滿(mǎn)分40分)

并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A
It was a Sunday and the heavy storm had lasted all night. The morning after the storm, though, was beautiful: blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently.
My father realized it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him. I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same. I’m so glad I did.
On the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape. After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps(脊背) in the distance.
On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldn’t believe it ——there aren’t any whales along the coast here. The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive.
The little baby whale——actually as big as our boat——was obviously stuck and could not move. The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩渦) and waves. ”She’s trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side, ”my father said. At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently. With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. Slowly, they let us lead them, some-times rising from the water right beside us to breathe——and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance.
In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half. That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day, Nearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.

A. he witnessed the whole process of fishing
B. he enjoyed the beauty of the calm sea
C. he experienced the rescue of the whales
D. he spent the weekend with his family
52. The harbour survived the storm owing to____________.
A. the shape of the harbour

A. she had stayed in the polluted water for too long
B. the whirlpools she had made were not big enough
C. she had no other whales around to turn to for help
D. the waves pushed her baby in the wrong direction

For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course. the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped
In this article. I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right, It doesn’t matter what the topic is –politics. The taws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg –the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong. for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress
55. Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?
A. Both can continue for generations.
B. Both are about where to draw the line
C. Neither has any clear winner
D. Neither can be put to an end
56. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.
B. The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict
C. The teens cause their parents of misleading them
D. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents
57. Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ________.
A. give orders to the other
B. know more than the other
C. gain respect from the other
D. get the other to behave properly
58. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A. Causes for the parent –teen conflicts
B. Examples of the parent –teen war.
C. Solutions for the parent –teen problems
D. Future of the parent-teen relationship
55. 答案:B

解析:題干的關(guān)鍵詞是want to be right because,回原文定位到最后一個(gè)自然段的“Third, needing to be right”. 原文接著(zhù)往下看“It doesn’t matter what the topic is – politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg - the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority – someone who actually knows something – and therefore to command respect. ” 這句話(huà)雖然看起來(lái)很復雜,但在新概念的課堂上老師們反復強調閱讀長(cháng)難句時(shí),如果遇到插入語(yǔ)可以跳過(guò)不看,這里破折號中間的內容均為插入語(yǔ),將其省略,句子就會(huì )變得簡(jiǎn)單的多。又由于題干是對原因的提問(wèn),這里我們只用重點(diǎn)看for后面的內容,“for both wish to be considered an authority and therefore to command respect”,正確答案為C。

They wear the latest fashions with the most up-to-date accessories (配飾). Yet these are girls in their teens or twenties but women in their sixties and seventies. A generation which would once only wear old-fashioned clothes is now favoring the same high street looks worn by those half their age.
Professor Julia Twigg, a social policy expert, said, “Women over 75 are now shopping for clothes more frequently than they did when they were young in the 1960s. In the 1960s buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter. It was an expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four years — now you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to. Fashion is a lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly. ”
Professor Twigg analyzed family expending(支出)data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the same—and 5 or 6 per cent of spending—the amount of clothes bought had risen sharply.
The professor said, “Clothes are now
Fashion designer Angela Barnard, who runs her own fashion business in London, said older women were much more affected by celebrity(名流) style than in previous years.
She said, “When people see stars such as Judi Dench and Helen Mirren looking attractive and fashionable in their sixties, they want to follow them. Older women are much more aware of celebrities. There’s also the boom in TV programmes showing people how they can change their look, and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in their fifties. When I started my business a few years ago, my older customers tended to be very rich, but now they are what I would call ordinary women. My own mother is 61 and she wears the latest fashions in a way she would never have done ten years ago. ”
59. Professor Twigg found that, compared with the 1960s, _______.
A. the price of clothes has generally fallen by 70%
B. the spending on clothes has increased by 5% or 6%
C. people spend 30% less than they did on clothes
D. the amount of clothes bought has risen by 5% or 6%
60. What can we learn about old women in terms of fashion?
A. They are often ignored by fashion designers.
B. They are now more easily influenced by stars.
C. They are regarded as pioneers in the latest fashion.
D. They are more interested in clothes because of their old age.
61. It can be concluded that old women tend to wear the latest fashions today mainly because
A. they get tired of things more quickly
B. TV shows teach them how to change their look
C. they are in much better shape now
D. clothes are much cheaper than before
62. Which is the best possible title of the passage?

This brief book is aimed at high school students, but speaks to anyone learning at any stage of life.
Its formal, serious style closely matches its content, a school-masterly book on schooling. The author, W. H. Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing. In his opinion, reading doesn’t just mean recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorporating it into oneself just as one digests a sandwich and makes it a part of him. The goal is to bring the information back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees.
Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages, math, science and history. He generally handles these topics thoroughly(透徹地) and equally, except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion(激情) regarding history to his students, that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across. To my disappointment, in this part of the book he ignores the arts. As a matter of fact, they demand all the concentration and study that math and science do, though the study differs slightly in kind. Although it’s commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired, actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics.
My other comment is that the text aged. The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s—none of the references(參考文獻)seem newer than the late 1950s. As a result, the discussion misses the entire computer age.
These are small points, though, and don’t affect the main discussion. I recommend it to any student and any teacher, including the self-taught student.
63. According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to________.
A. gain knowledge and expand one’s view
B. understand the meaning between the lines
C. experts ideas based on what one has read
D. gets information and keeps it alive in memory
64. The author of the passage insists that learning the arts_________.
A. requires great efforts
B. demands real passion
C. is less natural than learning maths
D. is as natural as learning a language
65. What is a shortcoming of Armstrong’s work according to the author?
A. Some ideas are slightly contradictory.
B. There is too much discussion on studying science.
C. The style is too serious.
D. It lacks new information.
66. This passage can be classified as________.
A. an advertisement
B. a book review
C. a feature story
D. A news report
63. 答案:C
考點(diǎn):
解析:題干的關(guān)鍵詞是goal of reading,回原文定位到第二自然段,第二自然段有兩處出現了關(guān)鍵詞,一處說(shuō)“The goal is to bring the information back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees. ”,另一處說(shuō)“the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text. ” C選項正好與第二處原文相呼應,題干里的goal of reading呼應原文的aim of reading,C項的express ideas呼應原文的express the information,based on what one has read呼應原文的information you have got from the text。雖然我們不可否認讀書(shū)的目的也包括A和D兩個(gè)選項提到的獲取知識,擴大視野,但由于原文沒(méi)有提及,所以不能成為正確選項。

66. 答案:B
考點(diǎn):考查文章體裁
解析: 通過(guò)閱讀每段的首句,不難發(fā)現第一自然段講本書(shū)的寫(xiě)作對象(This brief book is aimed at high school students),二、三自然段講本書(shū)的寫(xiě)作內容(The author, W. H. Armstrong, starts with the basics … only a third of the book remains after that discussion …),第四自然段是作者對本書(shū)的評價(jià)(My other comment is that …),最后一段總結,向讀者推薦這本書(shū)(I recommend it to any student and any teacher)。把握住了全文的結構,就不難看出這篇文章是一篇書(shū)評了。因此正確答案為B。

Have you winterized your horse yet? Even though global warming may have made our climate more mild, many animals are still hibernating(冬眠). It’s too bad that humans can’t hibernate. In fact, as a species, we almost did.
Apparently, at times in the past, peasants in
In line with this, Jeff Warren, a producer at CBC Radio’s The Current, tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial(人造的) lighting and the electric bulb.
When historians began studying texts of the Middle Ages, they noticed something referred to as “first sleep”, which was not clarified, though. Now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods. The business of eight hours’ uninterrupted sleep is a modern invention.
In the past, without the artificial light of the city to bathe in, humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight. The late night period was known as ”The Watch” It was when people actually kept watch against wild animals, although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbours.
According to some sleep researchers, a short period of insomnia(失眠) at midnight is not a disorder. It is normal. Humans can experience another state of consciousness around their sleeping, which occurs in the brief period before we fall asleep or wake ourselves in the morning. This period can be an extraordinarily creative time for some people. The impressive inventor, Thomas Edison, used this state to hit upon many of his new ideas.
Playing with your sleep rhythms can be adventurous, as anxiety may set in. Medical science doesn’t help much in this case. It offers us medicines for a full night’s continuous sleep, which sounds natural; however, according to Warren’s theory,it is really the opposite of what we need.
67. The example of the French peasants shows the fact that________.
A. people might become lazy as a result of too much sleep
B. there were signs of hibernation in human sleeping habits
C. people tended to sleep more peacefully in cold weather
D. winter was a season for people to sleep for months on end
68. The late night was called “The Watch” because it was a time for people______.
A. to set traps to catch animals
B. to wake up their family and neighbours
C. to remind others of the time
D. to guard against possible dangers
69. What does the author advise people to do?
A. Sleep in the way animals do.
B. Consult a doctor if they can’t sleep.
C. Follow their natural sleep rhythm.
D. Keep to the eight-hour sleep pattern.
70. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To give a prescription for insomnia.
B. To urge people to sleep less.
C. To analyze the sleep pattern of modern people.
D. To throw new light on human sleep.
67. 答案:B

72. 答案:“painted”。[來(lái)源: Ks5u. com. Co m]
