22. seen 23. fast
24. three##3
25. Thick
【解析】
【详解】Good morning! I’m Jason. I’m glad to give a speech about a tour by bike here.
The first thing you should pay attention to is safety. Many accidents happen simply because drivers can’t see the riders. So you should wear something that can be seen easily, like a red jacket. Second, never ride too fast. The joy of a bike tour is the riding itself. Third, make good preparations. If you’re planning your tour in summer, take enough water. And you’re supposed to drink at least three times if you ride all morning or afternoon. If the weather isn’t very good, take some thick clothes and put them on when you stop riding.
That’s all. Thanks.

In recent history, there have been some amazing inventions which have changed our lives. The plane has made international travel faster and easier. The Internet has brought people closer.
And you must know the names of some famous inventors like Henry Ford and Steve Jobs. But there are many everyday objects which you probably don’t notice and you don’t know who invented them. Take for example Nils Bohlin, who invented the modern-day car seat belt (安全带).
Before 1959, only two-point seat belts were available, and the only people who often wore them were race car drivers. The two-point seat belt couldn’t protect passengers from internal injuries (内伤) during serious car accidents.
In 1958, Bohlin joined Volvo Car Corporation as a safety engineer. He came up with the three-point seat belt to keep passengers from flying out of their cars during collisions. The three-point seat belt used one strap (带子) across the chest (胸部) and another across the legs and then the two joined at the same place. Amazingly, this was a very simple idea which no one tried before.
The three-point seat belt was introduced on Volvo cars in 1959. For more people’s safety, Volvo made the new seat belt design (设计) available to other car makers for free. Since then, engineers have worked to improve the three-point seat belt, but the basic design remains Bohlin’s.
At the time of Bohlin’s death in September 2002, Volvo said that the seat belt had saved more than one million lives since it was introduced.
41. The writer develops his ideas in Paragraph 1 by ________.
A. telling a joke B. giving some examples
C. asking some fun questions D. describing a personal experience
42. What can we learn about the two-point seat belt?
A. It was sold worldwide. B. It was not easy to wear.
C. It saved over one million lives. D. It was popular with race car drivers only.
43. The underlined word “collisions” in Paragraph 3 means ________ in Chinese in this passage.
A. 碰撞 B. 清洗 C. 制造 D. 修理
44. Bohlin invented the three-point seat belt ________.
A. in the early 1950s B. to get a job at Volvo
C. while working at Volvo D. after having a car accident
45. The best title of this passage is ________.
A. Car safety B. A great car company
C. A life-saving invention D. Different kinds of seat belts
【答案】41. B 42. D 43. A 44. C 45. C
【解析】
【分析】文章大意:本文从一些改变我们生活的发明引出话题,讲述了一项不被人注意的发明——三点式安全带的发明过程。
【41题详解】
推理判断题。根据第1段中“The plane has made international travel faster and easier. The Internet has brought people closer.”可知作者通过列举飞机和互联网的例子来阐释他的观点。故选B。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据第3段中“Before 1959, only two-point seat belts were available, and the only people who often wore them were race car drivers.”可知两点式安全带只在赛车司机中流行。故选D。
【43题详解】
词义猜测题。根据单词所在语境“He came up with the three-point seat belt to keep passengers from flying out of their cars during collisions.(他想到用三点式安全带在_____期间来保护乘客不飞出他们的汽车。)”结合选项可推出collisions是“碰撞”的意思。故选A。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。根据第4段中“In 1958, Bohlin joined Volvo Car Corporation as a safety engineer. He came up with the three-point seat belt to keep passengers from flying out of their cars during collisions.”可知三点式安全带是Bohlin在Volvo工作期间发明的。故选C。
【45题详解】
标题归纳题。文章主要讲了Bohlin发明的三点式安全带及其应用,这是一项能救人命的发明,用“A life-saving invention”做标题最合适。故选C。

People can’t see you when you’re speaking on the phone, but they can hear you. So, the way you speak is especially important. In fact, researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice; and only 20% is from the words you use. Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.
1. Facial Expressions
Your facial expression can influence your voice. For example, if you smile, your voice will sound warm and friendly, just the opposite, if you have an angry look on your face, it can make you sound unpleasant.
2. Volume
If you speak too loudly, you could sound angry. And if you speak too softly, it’ll be difficult to hear you. So, speak loudly enough to be heard clearly, but not so loud that you’re shouting.
3. Pace
The pace of your voice is how quickly you speak. And this can show how you feel. For example, an angry person might speak faster than normal. Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly. Try speaking a little more slowly than normal. This will make you sound confident, and it’ll make it easier for the other person to understand you.
4. Gestures
Gesturing can influence the tone of your voice. When you gesture, you bring more air into the lungs, which can make your voice sound warmer. Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need. The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you’re doing, so you can gesture as wildly as you like!
5. Movement
If you’re feeling nervous, stand up and move around. It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.
6. Pauses (停顿)
Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down. This will make you sound more confident and in control. Also, if you pause after giving some new information, it’ll give the other person time to understand it. At the same time, listen to how the other person uses pauses. They could tell you something about the speaker’s feeling. For example, when a speaker is really angry, he might use pauses and says, “I... am... so... angry...”
46. How much of telephone communication is from the words you use?
A. 20%. B. 40%. C. 60%. D. 80%.
47. What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone?
A. Gesture wildly. B. Move around. C. Raise their voices. D. Make facial expressions.
48. How can pauses help people talk on the phone?
A The speaker can show he is friendly. B. The speaker can tell more information.
C. The listener will feel confident and in control. D. The listener will have time to understand the words.
49. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to control the speed of your speech. B. Different good ways of talking on the phone.
C. Reasons of making gestures while talking. D. How to improve communication among friends.
50. What is the writer’s opinion about telephone talk?
A. Your voice on the phone will show what you’re feeling.
B. Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others.
C. Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you.
D. The words you use are more important than the way you speak.
【答案】46. A 47. B 48. D 49. B 50. A
【解析】
【分析】试题分析:短文介绍了在打电话时的一些主要技巧,如面部表情、音量、步调、动作及其停顿等。
【46题详解】
细节理解题。根据根据第一段第二行句子and only 20% is from the words you use.可知,只有20%来自你的用词。故选A。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据If you’re feeling nervous, stand up and move around. It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.如果你感到紧张,站起来走动.可知通过走动来减少紧张。故选B。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段句子Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down. This will make you sound more confident and in control. Also, if you pause after giving some new information, it’ll give the other person time to understand it. 时不时地用停顿可以帮助你放慢速度,这会让你听起来更自信,更有控制力.另外,如果你停顿后,提出一些新的信息,这会给其他人一些时间来理解它.可知聆听者将有时间来理解这句话。故选D。
【49题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段句子People can't see you when you're speaking on the phone,but they can hear you.So, the way you speak is especially important. Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.当你打电话说话时,人们看不到你,但他们能听到你说话,所以你说话的方式尤其重要.以下是关于如何在电话中说话的小技巧.可知说的是电话交谈的不同方式。故选B。
【50题详解】
观点态度题。根据If you speak too loudly, you could sound angry. And if you speak too softly, it’ll be difficult to hear you. So, speak loudly enough to be heard clearly, but not so loud that you’re shouting.如果你说得太大声,你可能会生气.如果你说话太轻,很难听到你的声音.所以,大声说话,让别人听得清楚,但不要大声喊叫.可知作者认为在电话里你的声音将会显示你的感觉。故选A。

【解析】

58. When you meet a friend, you should make an ________ (努力) to be on time.

59. He ________ (更喜欢) movies that can cheer him up.
【答案】prefers
【解析】
【详解】句意:他更喜欢能让他振作起来的电影。prefer“更喜欢”,动词;本句时态为一般现在时,主语为第三人称单数,所以动词用三单形式。故填prefers。
60. She thought nothing in the world was more ________ (宝贵的) than her parents’ love.
【答案】valuable
【解析】
【详解】句意:她认为世界上没有什么比父母的爱更宝贵的。结合中文提示词“宝贵的”和“nothing in the world was more...than her parents’ love.”可知,这里是指没有什么比父母的爱更宝贵的,要填一个形容词“valuable宝贵的”,作表语。故填valuable。

【导语】本文主要讲述了作者小时候学习钢琴的经历。
【61题详解】

【62题详解】
句意:然而,有一件事彻底改变了我。根据“...one thing changed me”及备选词可知,此处指彻底改变了作者,修饰动词changed,用complete的副词completely“彻底地”。故填completely。
【63题详解】
句意:屋子里充满了他们的笑声。根据“ was ... of their laughter”及备选词可知,应是指充满了欢笑声,be full of“充满了”,故填full。
【64题详解】

【65题详解】
句意:我心想:“没有人会喜欢我演奏的音乐。” 根据“I thought to...”及备选词可知,此处指自己心想,主语是I,空处用myself表示“我自己”。故填myself。
【66题详解】
句意:虽然我拒绝了,但我的朋友们仍然把我推到钢琴前。根据句意可知,“ I refused”是“ my friends still pushed me to the piano. ”的让步状语,所以空处用although“虽然”引导让步状语从句,故填Although。
【67题详解】
句意:我脑子里只有贝多芬的《月光奏鸣曲》。根据“ The only thing in my...was Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata”及备选词可知,此处指脑海里,mind“大脑”符合语境,故填mind。
【68题详解】

句意:几分钟后,我感到人们向我走来,他们看起来很惊讶。根据“they looked very...”可知,空处应填形容词作表语,结合备选词和“Some people even took out their phones to record this moment.”可知,应是他们看起来很惊讶,修饰人,用surprise的形容词surprised“惊讶的”。故填surprised。
【70题详解】
句意:那时候,我真的很后悔放弃弹钢琴。空处缺少谓语动词,根据“ ...giving up playing the piano. So from then on, I practiced playing it again.”及备选词可知,当时作者应是后悔放弃了弹钢琴,regret“放弃”,时态是一般过去时,所以空处用动词的过去式,故填regretted。
五、完成或翻译句子(共4小题;计8分)
(一) 根据句意填入单词正确形式,每空一词,每空1分。
71. 格林先生现在不可能在办公室,因为他去北京了。
Mr. Green ________ be in his office now because he has ________ to Beijing.
【答案】 ①. can’t ②. gone
【解析】
【详解】对比中英文可知,空处表示“不可能”,“去北京了”。情态动词can表推测,其否定形式表示“不可能”;have gone to“去了某地”,have been to“曾经去过某地”,这里表示他去了北京,还没回来,用have gone to。故填can’t;gone。
72. 那几道菜尝起来酸。这令老板大动肝火。
The dishes tasted ________. It made the boss get ________.

74. 她最大的挑战是学会如何在晚餐桌上表现。

【76题详解】
根据“The women made clothes from animal skins. They made shoes from the skins, too.”因纽特人用动物皮做衣服和鞋子。故填They made clothes and shoes from animal skins./They used them to make shoes from the skins./To make shoes from the skins.

In recent history, there have been some amazing inventions which have changed our lives. The plane has made international travel faster and easier. The Internet has brought people closer.
And you must know the names of some famous inventors like Henry Ford and Steve Jobs. But there are many everyday objects which you probably don’t notice and you don’t know who invented them. Take for example Nils Bohlin, who invented the modern-day car seat belt (安全带).
Before 1959, only two-point seat belts were available, and the only people who often wore them were race car drivers. The two-point seat belt couldn’t protect passengers from internal injuries (内伤) during serious car accidents.
In 1958, Bohlin joined Volvo Car Corporation as a safety engineer. He came up with the three-point seat belt to keep passengers from flying out of their cars during collisions. The three-point seat belt used one strap (带子) across the chest (胸部) and another across the legs and then the two joined at the same place. Amazingly, this was a very simple idea which no one tried before.
The three-point seat belt was introduced on Volvo cars in 1959. For more people’s safety, Volvo made the new seat belt design (设计) available to other car makers for free. Since then, engineers have worked to improve the three-point seat belt, but the basic design remains Bohlin’s.
At the time of Bohlin’s death in September 2002, Volvo said that the seat belt had saved more than one million lives since it was introduced.
41. The writer develops his ideas in Paragraph 1 by ________.
A. telling a joke B. giving some examples
C. asking some fun questions D. describing a personal experience
42. What can we learn about the two-point seat belt?
A. It was sold worldwide. B. It was not easy to wear.
C. It saved over one million lives. D. It was popular with race car drivers only.
43. The underlined word “collisions” in Paragraph 3 means ________ in Chinese in this passage.
A. 碰撞 B. 清洗 C. 制造 D. 修理
44 Bohlin invented the three-point seat belt ________.
A. in the early 1950s B. to get a job at Volvo
C. while working at Volvo D. after having a car accident
45. The best title of this passage is ________.
A. Car safety B. A great car company
C. A life-saving invention D. Different kinds of seat belts
C
People can’t see you when you’re speaking on the phone, but they can hear you. So, the way you speak is especially important. In fact, researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice; and only 20% is from the words you use. Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.
1. Facial Expressions
Your facial expression can influence your voice. For example, if you smile, your voice will sound warm and friendly, just the opposite, if you have an angry look on your face, it can make you sound unpleasant.
2. Volume
If you speak too loudly, you could sound angry. And if you speak too softly, it’ll be difficult to hear you. So, speak loudly enough to be heard clearly, but not so loud that you’re shouting.
3. Pace
The pace of your voice is how quickly you speak. And this can show how you feel. For example, an angry person might speak faster than normal. Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly. Try speaking a little more slowly than normal. This will make you sound confident, and it’ll make it easier for the other person to understand you.
4. Gestures
Gesturing can influence the tone of your voice. When you gesture you bring more air into the lungs, which can make your voice sound warmer. Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need. The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you’re doing, so you can gesture as wildly as you like!
5 Movement
If you’re feeling nervous, stand up and move around. It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.
6. Pauses (停顿)
Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down. This will make you sound more confident and in control. Also, if you pause after giving some new information, it’ll give the other person time to understand it. At the same time, listen to how the other person uses pauses. They could tell you something about the speaker’s feeling. For example, when a speaker is really angry, he might use pauses and says, “I... am... so... angry...”
46 How much of telephone communication is from the words you use?
A. 20%. B. 40%. C. 60%. D. 80%.
47. What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone?
A. Gesture wildly. B. Move around. C. Raise their voices. D. Make facial expressions.
48. How can pauses help people talk on the phone?
A. The speaker can show he is friendly. B. The speaker can tell more information.
C. The listener will feel confident and in control. D. The listener will have time to understand the words.
