72、下文第53题的句子中的“ looking for your soul mate”。39A silent表示沉默“，calm表示”冷静、平静“，still表示”一动不动“，quiet表示”（环境）安静”。此处表示“老师想了几秒种”。40D 据but可知前后是意义相反的形容词。41A continue表示“继续”；last 表示“持续”，与段时间连用；go on才表示“继续”。pick与 up连用可表示“继续（刚才的话题）”。42B参照下文第48题的句子中的“you told me not to go back”，表示“不要往回走（dont walk backwards）。43C in the w

73、ay表示“挡道”，by the way（by the by）表示“顺便问一下”，across the way表示“穿过道路”。on the way表示“在去的路上、一路上”。44D 参照下文。45C later表示“以后”。（注意late/later/lately/latest/latter的区别）46D “qiute a few ”表示“相当多的”。47C 动作发生在后面动词“didnt go back”之前，所以用过去完成时。48B 参照上文。49A what引导表语从句，且在从句中作主语。All很有迷惑性，因为all that等于what；但这里that不能省略，因为作从句的主语。50B

74、 该句意为这则小故事想要告诉我们什么道理（message）呢？”。51B “the beautiful blade of grass is the people thatattract you”表示“美丽的草就是吸引你的人”。 52D 参照下文的“Time Never Goes Back”53A介词in表示“在过程中”。54C expect somebody to do something，这里there 是to be的逻辑主语。 55D 根据下文的“Time Never Goes Back”，所以不能浪费一生的时间四、阅读理解（A） 5659,ABCD（B） 6063,DBDC【文章大意】英

76、第五段的“possibly as a kind of sport before barbecuing them”可得答案。D项具有迷惑性。62D 【解析】本题考查细节理解。结合文章第六段中的“people came after their parties to throw dead relatives in the water ”。63C 【解析】本题考查细节理解。结合文章最后一段中的“They meet there when the sun set on the shortest day of winter and when it rises on the longest day of su

78、这是一篇教育类短文。文章阐述的是“孩子们的成才需要社会各界的共同参与”。67B 句义推测题。解答此题切不可从字面上理解，谚语中的an entire village不是“全村庄”之意，应该引申为“社会各界”，即：短文中的“parents, community members and businesses”。68A 主旨意图题。综合全文可以推断作者的写作意图是“号召人们参与孩子的教育和培养”，所以此文主要为“parents and members in organizations”所作。69C 细节题。从倒数第二段中可以看出，“孩子们的实践操作能力主要来自工商企业的培训”。70B 事实判断题。no

79、t a bit意为“一点也不，根本没有”，等于“not at all”。第四段的意义可验证答案。五、任务型阅读71 organized72 Purposes 73 Write 74 steps 75 Different 76 ensure 77 Promise 78within 79 carried 80 Conclusion六 书面表达（One possible version）The global financial crisis of 2008 has contributed to a more fierce competition in job markets Increasing n
