A. Learn B. Learning C. Learned D. Having learned
【答案】B

A. ensured B. will ensure C. was to ensure D. has ensured

4. The teacher asked who was able to____________ a good solution to this problem.
A. get along with B. catch up with C. come up with D. go on with

A. off B. alone C. down D. out
【答案】C

6. The boys, ________ with this somewhat terrifying figure, had lost their tongues.
A. to face B. facing C. having faced D. faced
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:男孩们面对这个有些可怕的身影,都说不出话来了。句中已有谓语动词had lost,且没有连词,故空格处应填入非谓语动词。固定搭配be faced with意为“面临,面对”,此处使用其过去分词形式faced作状语,表示主语The boys所处的状态。
7. So far, four people ________ injured in the car accident.
A. has been found B. are found C. have been found D. is found
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:到目前为止,已经在车祸中发现了四名伤者。句中时间状语So far通常与现在完成时连用。主语four people为复数,谓语动词需用复数形式;且主语与动词find之间为被动关系,需用被动语态。因此,此处应使用现在完成时的被动语态复数形式have been found。
8. Dogs have a very good ______ of smell and are often used to search for survivors in an earthquake.
A. sense B. view C. means D. idea
【答案】A
【解析】

9. When it comes to in public, no one can match him.
A. speak B. speaking C. being spoken D. be spoken
【答案】B
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:当谈到在公众场合演讲,没人能与他相比。When it comes to是固定句型,表示“当谈到……”,to 是属于介词,后面需加动名词作宾语,排除A项和D项;而此句子不含被动意思,排除C项。故选B。
【名师点睛】考查固定搭配。When it comes to 的用法(1) 后面接名词或接动词的ING形式(动名词) (2) when前面可以用逗号,整个跟着某个句子句子后面(用法有点像插入语)。也可以作为分句直接位于句首,整个部分后接逗号。1. Although she plays football well, when it comes to English, she is not so good. 她的足球玩得很好,就英语而言,她没学的那么好。2.When it comes to eating, Joey is full of joy.一谈到食物,乔伊就很高兴。 3.

11. ________ to give up smoking, he threw away his remaining cigarettes.
A. Determined B. To determined C. Determining D. Having determined
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:下定决心戒烟,他扔掉了剩下的香烟。be determined to do sth.为固定短语,意为“下定决心做某事”,determined为过去分词转化来的形容词,在句中作状语,表示主语“下定决心”的心理状态。

【解析】
【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意:我们老板很大方,时不时就招待我们喝上午茶。A. stubborn固执的;B. generous慷慨的,大方的;C. selfish自私的;D. reliable可靠的。根据空后的“treats us to mid-morning snacks from time to time”可知,老板经常请客,所以老板是个大方的人。故选B。
13. Since Lily came to England, she ________ to many places in London.
A. travels B. traveled C. has traveled D. is traveling
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:自从莉莉来到英国,她已经去过伦敦的许多地方了。 “since + 一般过去时”的从句是现在完成时的标志性时间状语,表示动作从过去某一时间开始一直持续到现在,因此主句需要使用现在完成时,主语she为第三人称单数,谓语动词需用第三人称单数形式has traveled。
14. There is ________ no doubt that the Chinese leadership will continue to lead the country toward the fulfillment of the Chinese dream.
A. regularly B. accurately C. absolutely D. actively
【答案】C

A. Losing B. Lost C. To lose D. Being lost
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:他陷入了沉思,没有注意到老师就在他面前。be lost in thought为固定短语,意为“陷入沉思”。此处省略be动词,使用过去分词作状语,表示主语所处的状态。

Four great places to go in the UK
Centre for Alternative Technology
It began as a community looking for ways of life without fossil fuels(化石燃料). The group included gardeners and engineers and its early experiments looked at wind and solar power. Two years later, a visitor centre was opened to make more people know this community’s lifestyle. Today its renewable tech and gardens attract many visitors.
Wildwood Trust
It is a great place for all ages where you can see amazing wildlife native to Britain. It holds an amazing collection of over 200 British animals. With a huge adventure playground for kids, it is good for families. Wildwood Trust offers half-price tickets to those who arrive by public transport.
St Nicks
It’s surprising that the city centre is just a mile away when you walk through the grassy paths there. The place, now alive with birdsong and wild flowers, was once York’s rubbish tip (垃圾场). Now many apple trees grow there. And there’s a popular mini-Stonehenge in the middle, which is made of stones once thrown there.
Findhorn Foundation
The Findhorn Foundation has been trying to be a living model for the future since the 1960s. This is an eco-village with an arts centre and publishers; there are also films and plays on offer in the Universal Hall.

Travel is good for you
Americans think that travel is good for you. Some even think it can help solve one of the country’s worst problems — crime (犯罪).
Crime worries a lot of people. Every year, the number of crimes goes up and up. And many criminals (罪犯) are young. Most of them — 85 percent are boys. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all. There are problems with alcohol and drugs.
There are many young criminals in prison. But prison doesn’t change them — 60 to 70 percent will go back to crime when they come out of prison.
One man, Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a difficult life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave, and to help their friends in time of danger. This helped them to grow into men. So Bob Burton started “Vision Quest”.
He takes young criminals on a long, long journey with horses and wagons 3,000 miles through seven states. They are on the road for more than a year.
The young people on Vision Quest (boys and a few girls) all have bad problems. Most of them have already spent time in prison. This is their last chance.
It’s hard work on the road. The day starts before the sun comes up. The boys and girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before. But they can love their horses. That love can help them to have a new life.
Not all young people on Vision Quest will leave crime behind them. 30 or 40 percent will one day be in prison again. But that’s a lot better then 60 or 70 percent. Bob Burton is right. Travel can be good for you.
Even today, Americans still say, “Go west, young men.”
41. According to the passage, travel is good because it can ________.
A. get rid of crime completely B. change the way of life
C. help to reduce criminals D. build up your body
42. Which of the following is NOT the character of the criminals?
A. Most of them are young.
B. They often have not a good family.
C. They may often drink wine too much and take drugs.
D. They like traveling far away from their homes.
43. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Young criminals are becoming fewer and fewer now.
B. Most of the criminals will do better after they come out of prison.
C. Some young criminals are changed by Bob’s new idea .
D. The young criminals on Vision Quest all lead a happy life.
44. The young people on Vision Quest have to ________ .
A. work all day and all night
B. get up early and feed the horses
C. love their horses
D. live a new life
45. “Go west, young men” means ________.
A. travel can help young men learn how to feed horses
B. people can learn to be strong and brave on a long journey
C. people can learn how give up smoking on their journey
D. scenes in the west are very beautiful
【答案】41. C 42. D 43. C 44. B 45. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要通过Bob Burton开办了“Vision Quest”,讲述了旅行可以帮助解决犯罪问题。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Americans think that travel is good for you. Some even think it can help solve one of the country’s worst problems — crime (犯罪). (美国人认为旅行对你有好处。有些人甚至认为它可以帮助解决该国最严重的问题之一——犯罪)”可知,旅行是很好的,因为旅行可能帮助解决或减少犯罪问题。故选C。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“And many criminals (罪犯) are young. Most of them — 85 percent are boys. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all. There are problems with alcohol and drugs. (许多罪犯都很年轻。他们中的大多数——85%是男孩。他们往往来自悲伤的家庭,只有一个父母或根本没有父母。有酗酒和吸毒的问题)”可知,罪犯大多数都很年轻,家庭都不太幸福,并且有酗酒和吸毒的问题。文章并未提及他们喜欢远离家乡的旅行,所以它不属于罪犯的特征。故选D。

Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging (外包装) has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for burying (埋) this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Besides, the plastic from the package puts some creatures in danger, especially birds and fish. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary materials are collected. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.
46. What does the underlined phrase “that over-consumption” refer to?
A. Using too much packaging. B. Recycling too many wastes.
C. Having more material than is needed. D. Making more products than necessary.
47. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show ________.
A. the tendency of cutting household waste B. the increase of packaging recycling
C. the rapid growth of supermarkets D. the fact of packaging overuse
48. According to the text, which of the following is true about recycling?
A. It leads to a waste of land.
B. It means burning packaging for energy.
C. It helps control the greenhouse effect.
D. It is the solution to gas shortage.
49. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B. It is wrong to judge quality only by packaging.
C. Supermarkets care more about packaging.
D. Other products are better packaged than food.
50. What does the writer tell us in the last paragraph?
A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult. B. People don’t waste any more.
C. People only recycle necessary goods now. D. We should continue our consumer culture.
【答案】46. C 47. D 48. C 49. B 50. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了过度消费与商品过度包装危害环境,回收利用治标不治本,人们惯以包装评判品质,摒弃浪费消费观念任重道远。
【46题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place. (然而,被迫回收往往意味着我们拥有的物资已超出所需。我们正在以最环保的方式处理that over-consumption的结果,但如果我们一开始就不需要把这么多材料带回家,那就好得多了)”可知,that over-consumption指的是过度消费,表示拥有超出需求的物资。
【47题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The total amount of packaging (外包装) has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. (1999年至2005年,外包装总量增长了12%。现在,它占英国典型家庭垃圾的三分之一)”可知,作者使用数据,来体现过度包装的现状。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment.(过多的包装对环境造成了严重破坏)”以及“If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect.(如果这种包装被烧毁,它会释放出会进而导致温室效应的温室气体)”可知,过多的包装被烧毁会释放温室气体,所以回收有助于控制温室效应。
【49题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary. (我们学会了将包装与质量联系起来。我们已经学会认为没有包装的东西质量很差。食物尤其如此。但它也适用于广泛的消费品,这些产品的包装往往比必要的要多得多)”可知,单凭包装判定品质是错误的。
【50题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb. (我们需要面对消费文化的浪费,但我们前路艰难)”可知,抵制浪费是困难的。

The first time I went abroad was when I went to London. It was in the summer holidays about five or six years ago and I went with my friends. The plane and train were quite expensive, so we decided to travel by coach.We left at five o'clock in the morning and the journey to London took about sixteen hours.
We stayed in London for three days, in a youth hostel(青年旅社)not far from the centre. My friends and I had a big room on the top floor.The beds were not very comfortable and the bathroom was very small but it had a wonderful view overlooking the Thames.
While we were in London we walked a lot. First, we went to see all the famous attractions: Big Ben, Piccadilly Circus,and Buckingham Palace.Then we went shopping in Oxford Street.On the last day my friends and I went to Camden Market.You can buy all kinds of jewellery and clothes there. I bought a silver ring for my sister. It was really sunny in the afternoon, so we went to watch a football game. Unfortunately, I think the ring fell out of my pocket during the game,and I had to buy another one.
I really enjoyed visiting London although the youth hostel was not perfect.Next time, I will stay at the Ritz but I will ever feel as excited as I did that first time.

【53题详解】
考查词句猜测题。根据下文“Big Ben, Piccadilly Circus,and Buckingham Palace.”(大本钟、皮卡迪利广场和白金汉宫。)可知,这些都是出名的景点。所以划线词的意思是“景点”。故回答为:Sites./Places of interest./Sights。

A
Four great places to go in the UK
Centre for Alternative Technology
It began as a community looking for ways of life without fossil fuels(化石燃料). The group included gardeners and engineers and its early experiments looked at wind and solar power. Two years later, a visitor centre was opened to make more people know this community’s lifestyle. Today its renewable tech and gardens attract many visitors.
Wildwood Trust
It is a great place for all ages where you can see amazing wildlife native to Britain. It holds an amazing collection of over 200 British animals. With a huge adventure playground for kids, it is good for families. Wildwood Trust offers half-price tickets to those who arrive by public transport.
St Nicks
It’s surprising that the city centre is just a mile away when you walk through the grassy paths there. The place, now alive with birdsong and wild flowers, was once York’s rubbish tip (垃圾场). Now many apple trees grow there. And there’s a popular mini-Stonehenge in the middle, which is made of stones once thrown there.
Findhorn Foundation
The Findhorn Foundation has been trying to be a living model for the future since the 1960s. This is an eco-village with an arts centre and publishers; there are also films and plays on offer in the Universal Hall. Being in the Findhorn Foundation reminds you that powerful and positive visions for the future can be realized.
36. What is the aim of the Centre for Alternative Technology most probably?
A. To share the idea of green living. B. To call for people to believe in science.
C. To support new technology for fossil fuels. D. To make more scientists join its experiments.
37. What can we know about the Wildwood Trust?
A. It offers many free adventures to children.
B. It often organizes environmental activities.
C. It encourages trips to the place by public transport.
D. It increases the public’s knowledge of foreign animals.
38. What’s special about St Nicks?

39. Which place will you visit if you want to have a taste of future life?
A. St Nicks. B. Wildwood Trust.
C. Findhorn Foundation. D. Centre for Alternative Technology.

Travel is good for you
Americans think that travel is good for you. Some even think it can help solve one of the country’s worst problems — crime (犯罪).
Crime worries a lot of people. Every year, the number of crimes goes up and up. And many criminals (罪犯) are young. Most of them — 85 percent are boys. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all. There are problems with alcohol and drugs.
There are many young criminals in prison. But prison doesn’t change them — 60 to 70 percent will go back to crime when they come out of prison.
One man, Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a difficult life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave, and to help their friends in time of danger. This helped them to grow into men. So Bob Burton started “Vision Quest”.
He takes young criminals on a long, long journey with horses and wagons 3,000 miles through seven states. They are on the road for more than a year.
The young people on Vision Quest (boys and a few girls) all have bad problems. Most of them have already spent time in prison. This is their last chance.
It’s hard work on the road. The day starts before the sun comes up. The boys and girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before. But they can love their horses. That love can help them to have a new life.
Not all young people on Vision Quest will leave crime behind them. 30 or 40 percent will one day be in prison again. But that’s a lot better then 60 or 70 percent. Bob Burton is right. Travel can be good for you.
Even today, Americans still say, “Go west, young men.”
41. According to the passage, travel is good because it can ________.
A. get rid of crime completely B. change the way of life
C. help to reduce criminals D. build up your body
42. Which of the following is NOT the character of the criminals?
A. Most of them are young.
B. They often have not a good family.
C. They may often drink wine too much and take drugs.
D. They like traveling far away from their homes.
43. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Young criminals are becoming fewer and fewer now.
B. Most of the criminals will do better after they come out of prison.
C. Some young criminals are changed by Bob’s new idea .
D. The young criminals on Vision Quest all lead a happy life.
44. The young people on Vision Quest have to ________ .
A. work all day and all night
B. get up early and feed the horses
C. love their horses
D. live a new life
45. “Go west, young men” means ________.
A. travel can help young men learn how to feed horses
B. people can learn to be strong and brave on a long journey
C. people can learn how give up smoking on their journey
D. scenes in the west are very beautiful
C
Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging (外包装) has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for burying (埋) this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Besides, the plastic from the package puts some creatures in danger, especially birds and fish. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary materials are collected. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.
46. What does the underlined phrase “that over-consumption” refer to?
A. Using too much packaging. B. Recycling too many wastes.
C. Having more material than is needed. D. Making more products than necessary.
47. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show ________.
A. the tendency of cutting household waste B. the increase of packaging recycling
C. the rapid growth of supermarkets D. the fact of packaging overuse
48. According to the text, which of the following is true about recycling?
A. It leads to a waste of land.
B. It means burning packaging for energy.
C. It helps control the greenhouse effect.
D. It is the solution to gas shortage.
49. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B. It is wrong to judge quality only by packaging.
C. Supermarkets care more about packaging.
D. Other products are better packaged than food.
50. What does the writer tell us in the last paragraph?
A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult. B. People don’t waste any more.
C. People only recycle necessary goods now. D. We should continue our consumer culture.

The first time I went abroad was when I went to London. It was in the summer holidays about five or six years ago and I went with my friends. The plane and train were quite expensive, so we decided to travel by coach.We left at five o'clock in the morning and the journey to London took about sixteen hours.
We stayed in London for three days, in a youth hostel(青年旅社)not far from the centre. My friends and I had a big room on the top floor.The beds were not very comfortable and the bathroom was very small but it had a wonderful view overlooking the Thames.
While we were in London we walked a lot. First, we went to see all the famous attractions: Big Ben, Piccadilly Circus,and Buckingham Palace.Then we went shopping in Oxford Street.On the last day my friends and I went to Camden Market.You can buy all kinds of jewellery and clothes there. I bought a silver ring for my sister. It was really sunny in the afternoon, so we went to watch a football game. Unfortunately, I think the ring fell out of my pocket during the game,and I had to buy another one.
I really enjoyed visiting London although the youth hostel was not perfect.Next time, I will stay at the Ritz but I will ever feel as excited as I did that first time.
