Ⅰ.阅读理解
Competition in the Olympics should be between athletes who use their own strength or speed.If some athletes don't follow the rules,it ruins the fun for everyone connected with the game.It also gives an extremely unfair advantage to athletes using drugs.So I think athletes should be tested for drugs.
—Jim from Atlanta
Drug use among top athletes has long been a problem.Without drug tests,the Olympics would be about who uses the most drugs,not who trains the hardest and has the most athletic skills.Also drugs do harm to people's health and sometimes even kill people.
—David from Houston
Why should athletes be allowed to compete when it's not really they who are actually competing? It's the drugs that do all the work.Athletes who use drugs are like runners with roller skates. It's cheating and irresponsible,which must be strictly forbidden.It's unfair to other competitors who don't use drugs.
—Bruce from Chicago
Most sports athletes are held to a standard of being drugfree.Olympians should not be held any differently.They take part in highly competitive sports and win medals for their country.Testing the athletes for drugs must be done in every country and every sport.No drug test would be unfair to athletes who don't use drugs.
—Sam from Los Angeles
Although popular opinion is against athletes' using drugs,I believe drugs do help make the Olympic sports more wonderful.I enjoy seeing human beings achieving things that couldn't be done with normal conditioning.I enjoy seeing stronger,faster and longer performances by making good use of drugs.I don't see the necessity of drug tests.
—Jack from New York

【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了关于奥运会选手是否应该接受兴奋剂检测的几种观点。
1.D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Also drugs do harm to people's health and sometimes even kill people.”可知,David认为使用兴奋剂对运动员的健康有害。故选D。
2.A 句意理解题。画线句子的意思是:使用兴奋剂的运动员就好比穿着旱冰鞋跑步的运动员;根据该句后面的“It's cheating and irresponsible,which must be strictly forbidden.”可知,画线句子的真正含义为:使用兴奋剂和作弊没什么两样。故选A。
3.B 细节理解题。对比第一段中Jim的观点“It also gives an extremely unfair advantage to athletes using drugs.”和第四段中Sam的观点“No drug test would be untfair to athletes who don't use drugs”可知,他们两人都提到了奥运会比赛的公平性问题,故选B。

【语篇解读】 篮坛名将科比因飞机失事去世,全世界为之哀悼。
1.carrying 考查非谓语动词。 helicopter与carry是逻辑上的主谓关系, 故填carrying,在句中作后置定语,修饰 helicopter。
2.foggy 考查词性转换。修饰名词 conditions,应用fog的形容词形式。故填foggy。
3.under 考查介词。under investigation是固定短语,意为“在调查中”。故填under。

Dear Sir or Madam,
Upon reading an advertisement about a swimming training course on a local newspaper,I am writing to see if it is possible for you to provide me with more information regarding the course.Since it is mentioned that your instructors are fully qualified and can ensure that learners are able to swim well in one week's training,I take a keen interest in it as the swimming course will be offered in the university.What I want to enquire are when and where the course will be given and how long it will last each day.Additionally,I need to know how much you will charge me for that and I hope I can have access to how the course will be carried out.Lastly,would you be so kind as to inform me whether there is anything special that should be prepared or does your company provide everything necessary?
I am looking forward to hearing from you,soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写词数应为150左右。
One snowy day,the winds grew stronger and the snow turned into a blinding snowstorm.A farmer sat down to relax before the fire for the evening.Then he heard a loud knock,something hitting against the window.He looked outside but could not see anything.So he went outside for a better view.In the field near his house he saw,of all the strangest things,a group of swans(天鹅).
They were apparently flying to look for a warmer area down south,but they had been caught in the snowstorm.The storm had become too blinding and violent for the swans to fly or see their way.They were trapped on his farm,with no food or shelter,unable to do more than wave their wings and fly in aimless circles.He had compassion for them and wanted to help them.
He thought to himself,the barn(谷仓) would be a great place for them to stay.It was warm and safe; surely they could spend the night and wait out the storm.So he opened the barn doors for them.He waited,watching them,hoping they would notice the open barn and go inside.
However,they did not notice the barn or realize what it could mean for them.He moved closer toward them to get their attention,but they just moved away from him out of fear.He went into the house and came back with some bread,broke it up,and made a bread trail to the barn.They still did not catch on.
Starting to get frustrated,he went over and tried to drive them toward the barn.They panicked and scattered into every direction except toward the barn.Nothing he did could get them to go into the barn where there was warmth,safety,and shelter.Feeling totally frustrated,he exclaimed,“Why don't they follow me? Can't they see this is the only place where they can survive the storm? How can I possibly get them into the one place to save them?”
He thought for a moment and realized that they just would not follow a human. _______

He thought for a moment and realized that they just would not follow a human. He said to himself,“How can I possibly save them? If only I could become one of them.They would follow me and I would lead them to safety.”He realized these swans were afraid of human beings and every time he got close to them they would fly away.He thought he should come up with a good idea.
Just then,a good idea occurred to his mind.He thought of his geese he raised on his farm.After all,they were relatives.Maybe they were much easier to get along with.He rushed to his geese and drove them to the front of the barn.Then he went back to his house,observing through the window.The cold soon drove his geese into the barn,followed by the swans.His method worked! The swans were safe now!
