(A)
Dear Mr. Perkins,
We would like to introduce ourselves. Our company was organized only two years ago, but we are one of the largest boat companies in California. As you know, your son has bought a boat from us recently, and I think you know how pleased be is with our product. Also, John Webb, one of your son's friends, has bought a boat from us and, we understand, is very happy with his boat. We are always happy to know that our customers are satisfied. We are writing to you now because, as you know, your son has decided to buy a larger boat, and we need your signature on the loan (贷款) papers. The loan application has already been signed by Danny. As you will see, there is one form to fill out, and there are three contracts to sign. Danny’s 26-foot boat was returned to our San Pedro Dock yesterday, and we are pleased to say that the new 36-foot “Challenger” will be delivered in two weeks from today. It is being inspected by our manager right now. The auto-pilot (自动领航仪) has already been installed by our mechanic. It looks as though everything will be ready in time for delivery. All we need are the signed contracts from you.
Thank you.
Tony Valention
51. The main aim of the letter Tony wrote to Mr. Perkins is to __________.
A. tell him to sign the contracts B. thank him for buying a new boat
C. tell about something of his company D. ask him to pay for his boat right away
52. The underlined word “contracts” means ________.
A. application forms from the buyers B. letters sent by the sellers
C. formal agreements having the force of law D. designs of a new product
53. From the passage we can see that the boat company __________.
A. isn’t an old one B. is a world-famous one
C. is developing slowly D. has to advise customers to buy its boats
(B)
There is no doubt about it. The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously. I don’t mean while you’re unconscious. I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.
That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world, mother tongue. I just pick them up. But some of them may be misunderstood. Now, to misunderstand does not mean not to understand. To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.
The 5 % mislearnt of all the words we “know” will be the least frequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstandings may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.
Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning. They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game. “There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,” they will say. “You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context.”
This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work. It may succeed in many cases, but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.
And what’s more, there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves. Our learners’ dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible.
Don’t guess! Look it up!
54. It is certain that the best way to learn new words is _____________.
A. to learn them by oneself
B. to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequently
C. to guess them from the context
D. to get more separate meanings of each word
55. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refers to _________.
A. the 30,000 words B. English teachers
C. misunderstood words D. frequently used words
56. Which of the following is most likely NOT true?
A. Some of the words the writer knows must have been misunderstood.
B. Most of the 30,000 words the writer learned are frequently used ones.
C. How many words the writer got wrong are not known.
D. All the words the writer knows were learned by reading them.
57. It can be inferred that _________.
A. when somebody is conscious, he or she usually can’t learn new words by heart
B. we must use the words as often as possible in order to master them
C. it’s the best way to learn new words that one should only guess their meanings from the context
D. only dictionaries can help us learn language well
(C)
My first performance in front of an audience was coming up soon.
I tried as hard as I could to remain calm, but my heart was racing. I stared down at my sweat-covered, shaking hands.
I looked up again at the audience, realizing that these were real people. They were not just my mum and dad, who would say, “Good job!” even if I messed up the entire piece.
What if I had the wrong music? What if I played the wrong notes?
As it turned out, I was never able to answer these questions because the spotlight (聚光灯) was waiting for me. I grasped my hands tightly together, drying off the sweat.
Slowly I walked to the mud-brown piano in the center of the room. It contained 88 demanding keys, which were waiting impatiently to be played. I swallowed the golf-ball-sized lump (隆起部分) in my throat and sat down. Slowly, I opened the music. Next, I rested my still shaking hands on the ivory (象牙色的) keys.
As my fingers played across the keys, I was becoming more unsure of my preparation for this moment. But the memory of my years of training came flooding back. I knew that I had practiced this piece so many times that I could play it backwards if requested.
Although at one point I accidentally played two keys instead of the intended one, I continued to move my fingers automatically (自动地).
My eyes burned holes into (were fixed on) the pages in front of me.
There was no way that I was going to lose my concentration. To keep this to myself, I leaned forward and focused carefully on the music.
When l came to the end of the page, a warning went off inside my head: DON’T MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN YOU TURN THE PAGE!
Needless to say, 1 obeyed myself with all my heart and mind. And, proud of my “page-turning” feat (技艺), I finished the rest of the piece without making a single mistake.
After the final note died away, a celebration went into action inside my head. I had finished. I had mastered the impossible.
58. The author was nervous before the performance because _______.
A. his or her mother and father weren’t present
B. the strong spotlight was shining onto the stage
C. he or she hadn’t mastered the entire piece
D. he or she had never performed in public before
59. The underlined phrase “mess up” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.
A. put into disorder B. forget about C. stop halfway D. do well in
60. The author _________.
A. didn’t make any mistake in the performance
B. felt better at the beginning of the performance
C. paid all attention to nothing but his / her performance
D. lost his / her concentration sometimes during the performance
61. What did the author feel about his / her performance?
A. He / She thought it was comfortable and successful.
B. He / She thought it was very difficult but successful.
C. He / She thought he / she had never made a mistake during the performance.
D. He / She thought he / she played through the piece carefully but light-heartedly.
(D)
People and the sources of air pollution are found in the same places. This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes from cars. Statistics show that 93 percent of all auto trips are within cities. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.
On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage contributes to air pollution. Many major industries are also responsible for the dirty air in the around cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles to the air.
The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy for traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode. In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the live of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.
62. The key point of the passage is that _________.
A. the cause of air pollution is people
B. the causes and the effects of air pollution are both found in cities
C. the effects of air pollution range from headaches to death
D. air pollution is caused by dirty air
63. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. to persuade people to stop polluting the air
B. to tell the causes of air pollution
C. to tell why cities are bad places to live
D. to describe why cities are bad places to live
64. Why is air pollution more grave in the city than in the country?
A. Because there larger populations in cities.
B. Because the air in the city is dirty.
C. Because there are more cars in the city.
D. Because there are much more gas fumes from cars and burning of coal and oil for energy in the city than in the country.
65. The fumes from coal and oil may cause metal ______.
A. to turn black B. to become rusty C. to corrode D. to twist
66. In larger cities, the fumes from coal and oil may contribute to ___________.
A. heart disease B. lung diseases C. loss of clear vision D. serious headache
(E)
Did you know that vegetables can grow in the climates they are not used to? Cool climate vegetables like asparagus (芦笋) are now able to be grown in places as hot as Hawaii. In Hawaii, marine (海的)engineers have been able to actually let you believe such vegetables that they are living in cooler climates. In that way they grow faster and taste better. What these engineers have been using is very simply cold sea water. How did they use it? They place pipes in the soil and cold water flowing through them cools the earth. This causes plant growth and enables gardeners in tropical climates (热带气候) to grow crops from cooler climates. Also some of these pipes are exposed to the air and they make the air “wet” and thus water the gardens. What especially makes people happy about this process (过程) is that nothing to the natural conditions is being used. Another new use for cold ocean water is to cool buildings. Engineers believe that for example the entire west coast of the United States could be air-conditioned using seawater.
67. What does the new system enable the gardeners to do?
A. Water the field with seawater. B. Grow asparagus in hot places.
C. Grow cool climate vegetables in hot areas. D. Cool the soil.
68. Sea water mentioned in the passage is mainly used to________.
A. water the farms B. water the gardens
C. cool the air D. make the earth cool
69. What is the report mainly about?
A. How to grow vegetables in hot areas. B. How to grow crops in tropical climates.
C. How to cool the soil. D. How to use sea water.
70. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. sea water can act as an air-conditioner
B. asparagus are only grown in hot places
C. the writer wants to tell us something about scientific advance
D. sea water has many advantages

Dos and Don’ts for the 2008 Olympic Volunteers
It is reported that about 100,000 people will be chosen as volunteers for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. What should the volunteers do and what should they not do?
答 案 与 点 拨
单项选择：
DCBBC BDAAA BCDCB
16. C。get on well with sb. / sth. 意为“与某人相处融洽；某事进展顺利”。副词well修饰动词短语。
17 B。raise 作“饲养、栽培、抚养”解时，是及物动词。keep作“饲养（牲畜自用或赚钱）”解。grow作“种植”时，是及物动词，可与plant互换。作“生长”时，是不及物动词。根据题意，只能选B。
18. C。副词too前面可加上程度副词much、far或rather等，后加形容词或副词。too much意为“太多”，单独使用或后加不可数名词。so much后面加名词而不加形容词。highly不能修饰expensive。
19. B。我发现她时，她正在做一个重要的实验，她还没有做完，（所以没让她来这儿）。根据句意：第一空应用过去进行时态，第二空表示的动作还没完成，故用完成时态。
20. B。选项A不合题意，首先排除。若原文Lincoln后的and改为逗号，则选项C也可入选。such as虽然意为“例如”，后面可列举人或事物，但不能放在句尾，也可排除。for example“例如”，后面可举例说明，其位置很灵活，可放在句首、句中或句尾，通常其前后须加逗号。
21. D。此题考查what的特殊用法。A is to B what (或用as) C is to D。“A和B的关系正如C和D的关系”。
22. A。wealth是不可数名词，无复数形式。good后加s才是“财产”的意思。possession作“财产；所有物”时，常用复数形式。
23. D。seldom位于句首时，句子应用倒装语序；“我一直从未遇到过”，故应用现在完成时。determined为形容词，意为“有决心的；坚决的”。
24. B。句意：汽车跑了两公里之后抛锚了。分词的动作先于谓语动作，所以用了完成式作时间状语。
25. C。have sb. doing结构，现在分词working作宾语men的补足语。
26. D。此题考查两词组—there be与dream of。
27. D。 dozen被数词或many ,several 等修饰时，不加s，后面也不用 of 。如： two / many /several dozen pencils。但如果 dozen后有 these, those, them, us等词时 dozen后要接of 。如： two dozen of us, three dozen of these eggs。故答案为D。
28. A。分析句意，可知：如果你履行诺言，结果当然会令人满意的。句中不含“继续”之意，所以carry on 不可选；而keep out表示“拒绝”。keep on意为“坚持；继续”。均不符合题意。
29. D。space作“太空；空间”讲时，是不可数名词，前不需冠词。have a knowledge of 意为“对……理解/ 熟悉”。如：He has a good knowledge of politics. (他对政治非常熟悉)。故D是正确答案。
30. D。shall表示“允诺”。
完形填空：
31D。联系全句，可知作者在此谈论尽早做自己喜欢做的工作的必要性。A项有一定干扰性，从第二段作者所举的例子(一个想成为艺术家的人)我们可以看出，作者认为无论是兼职，还是不拿报酬做自己喜欢的工作都是有必要的。
32.A。从下文的“Well，I just don’t have the work relative to 38 (physics)．I should give up on it ...”得知，Albert Einstein起初没有得到做物理教授的工作。
33.C。relative to在这里是“与……有关”的意思。Einstein没能找到做物理教授的工作，他觉得自己不适合物理方面的工作。
34.B。instead在这里相当于instead of getting a job as a physics professor。
35.A。C项有一定干扰性，while employed等于while he was employed。在时间状语从句或条件状语从句中，从句的主语如果与主句主语一致，且谓语含有动词be，可以省略主语和动词be。C项显然不符合这一规则。
36.A。the inventions指Einstein的两项理论的发明。
37.C。从前文我们得知，Einstein起初想做物理教授，没有哪个大学想要他。现在他出名了，没有哪所重点大学不想要他。
38.B。从后文“…，supporting(养活) yourself by waiting tables"可知，以艺术为自己的工作时，做饭店服务员只是为了挣钱养活自己。
39.C。who在这里代表a waiter,本句的意思是“不要把自己看成一个有一天能成为艺术家的饭店服务员。”显然作者认为，你应该把自己看成艺术家，而不是服务员。
40.D。that在这里指“认为自己是一个有一天能成为艺术家的服务员”；work指“成为艺术家”，本句的意思是“那只能让你喜欢的工作(成为艺术家)留在遥远的将来。”
41.A。rather在这里表示否定，相当于instead。注意本句的结构：supporting yourself by waiting tables为状语，think yourself as an artist… and paint，or draw为句子的主要部分，and前后的动词为顺接，因此A项为最佳选项。
42.B。“一星期做24小时的服务员也许能挣到生存的薪水。”possible在这里表示“可能性”。其它选项不合题意。
43.C。“一星期只做24小时服务员，那就会给自己留下足够的时间投身于培训或提高手艺。”
44.D。off在这里用作形容词，意思是“其余的”。整个第二段以“working as an artist，while supporting yourself by waiting tables”为例说明作者开头所提出的"Begin doing the work you love as soon as possible，even if you don’t get paid for it, or you can only work at it part-time.”。
45.A。分析本句结构是选对此空的关键。while seeking the work you love是时间状语从句，you love即that you love，作定语修饰work,因此it helps to…为主句。it为形式主语，真正的主语是不定式，help在这里是“有帮助，起作用”的意思。
46.C。从下一句“Having opened 52 (all) the possibilities．you can make a final 53 (decision) and select the work you love as your own．”可知作者在此认为你不应该把自己局限到(1imited to)你应该是什么或已成为什么的观念上。
47.B。从空后的you can make a final 53 (decision)得此答案。
48.A。先是打开所有的可能，然后作出最终决定，最后选出最喜欢的。
49.B。“做你所喜欢的工作要求你把想象和实际平等对待。”
50.B。从后文我们得知the imaginative指big dreams，而the practical指all the little details。
阅读理解：
51.A。见contracts所在的句子以及最后一句话。这是写这封信的实质。而其余部分主要是宣传他们的公司，他们的服务等。这些都是为了让客户放心地购他们的货。
52.C。该词前面讲到了Mr. Perkins的儿子决定向船舶公司买一艘大船；又根据contracts后面的sign(签订)以及随后讲的公司已做好交货的准备，需要的只是签订了的contracts等等，可知它的意思是“合同”。
53.A。正文第二句讲：他们的公司两年前才成立。
54.D。本文作者不主张猜词义，而强调查辞典的重要性，并应记住尽量多的词义。作者在倒数第二段作了说明：辞典能给出很多不同的词义。联系起来可得出此答案。也可用排除法。
55.A。根据上文所说I learnt the 30,000 words...可知。
56.D。从第1段中的sinking in(潜移默化)和第2段中的pick them up(不知不觉学到)，可知作者掌握的词汇中一部分是在生活中无意识学到的。
57.B。第3段说作者对所学词汇中的5％理解错误，原因是用得最少。而用得多的则误解的可能性小。
58.D。从第1段可知，这是作者首次在观众面前演出，再结合第3、4段便知作者紧张的原因。
59.A。从前面的内容推知：在父母面前演奏无妨，即使messed up(弄得一团糟)他们也会说“很好”。
60.C。9、10、11三段都对此作了描述。
61.B。最后两段无疑是在告诉读者，作者成功了。此外前八段都是对作者紧张、不安的描述。所以只有B项能恰当反映作者对此次表演的感受。D显然错误；同时因为作者演奏时曾弹错了一个音符，所以C的说法错误。
62. B。主旨题。纵观全文，文章的前半部分讲的是导致污染的原因，而后半部分讲的是污染的结果。而A只强调起因，C只强调结果，D与本文没有什么关系。所以B为正确答案。
63. A。推理题。文章没有直接说写这篇文章的目的。但我们从受污染的结果可以推断出写这篇文章的目的就是要我们减少污染。所以A为正确答案。
64. D。细节题。第一段后半部分说明，空气污染的主要原因是汽车的废气和用来发电的煤和油的燃烧。而汽车和电在城市里比在郊区用得多。故D正确。
65 C。细节题。文章最后一段第三句直接提到：wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may … cause metal to corrode.。所以C为正确答案。
66. B。细节题。根据文章最后一句“these fumes endanger the lives of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.”可知，B为正确答案。
67. C。利用题目中的关键词雨，在原文中找到对应词语，在对应词语周围找到答案。A、B项均属于表面意思，且捕食原文中的具体事实，D项cool the soil不是最终目的。只有C项是具体事实：cool climate vegetables are now able to be grown．．．符合文中的the new system。
68. D。A、B、C项所述只是seawater所起的附带作用，并不是文章所指的主要方面，故正确答案为D。
69. D。找出多次重复的信息，它必定是主题。这类问题的典型形式是：What．．． main．．．／mainly．．．?要求考生指出文章的topic(论题)，subject(主题)，title(标题)，main idea(大意)等。seawater在原文中直接出现两次，间接出现三次：coldwater，cold ocean water，How did they use it? 等，故正确答案为D。
70. C。吃透作者意图，通过作者阐述的观点、叙述的事实等，避开表面现象，得出可靠结论。infer，imply (暗示)，suggest，conclude，assume (suppose)等常用于这类题中。A、D项均为字面意思。B项过于具体，只有C项为作者的真正意图。

One possible version:
It is reported that about 100,000 people will be chosen as volunteers, for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. What should the volunteers do and what should they not do?
Firstly, they should be polite and friendly to the athletes and visitors from all over the world, and avoid improper behaviour. Secondly , they should stick to their posts, offering good services, satisfying/ meeting any reasonable needs and being ready to help those in difficulty, and never fail to do their duty. Thirdly, they should introduce the Chinese culture and history to foreigners so that they may know China better and never say or do anything that harms the image of our motherland.
If I have the honour to be chosen as a volunteer, besides the above, I will work hard and creatively, but never be lazy. I will follow the law and discipline, but never break them. I will take the opportunity to make friends with the athletes and visitors, and help make the 2008 Olympic Games a great success.
