42、案:B37.解析：考查语境理解及词义辨析。下一句“谢谢你让我注意到这一点”说明我的看法与Dio不一样。答案:A 38.解析：考查习惯搭配。bring.to ones attention表示“使引起某人的注意”。答案:A39.解析：考查行文逻辑及语法运用。as 引导定语从句，表示“正如”。答案:D40.解析：考查语境理解及词义辨析。下文death is final 是很好的暗示。答案:A41.解析：考查对比结构暗示。答案:B42.解析：考查语境理解及词义辨析。根据下文，失败能够带给我们冲击，使我们反省，最终促使我们进步，“完善”我们的生活。答案:B43.解析：考查语境理解。从语境来看，这次“可怕

43、的”考试对Dio的影响颇大。答案:C44.解析：考查语境逻辑及短语辨析。作者到希望这次考试对Dio的帮助远大于对他的伤害。答案:C45.解析：考查动词短语辨析。一次被考试“击倒”并不重要，重要的是要有重新站起来的勇气。这是两个强调句型构成的平行结构，注意前后相互暗示，相互呼应。答案:C46.解析：考查平行结构推理。由前一个平行结构可推知。答案:D47.解析：考查词义辨析。judge.to be 表示“判断”。答案:A48.解析：考查语境理解。注意这是作者鼓励对方的策略，但并不意味着对方的书写比自己任何一个朋友都写得好。答案:D49.解析：考查行文逻辑推理。根据第三段your failure t

44、o pass that 43 English test可知Dio考试不及格。答案:D50.解析：考查生活常识。根据常识，仅仅根据一次考试来评价一个人是不合情理的，也是一种“耻辱”。答案:C51.解析：考查语境理解及词义辨析。Dio不仅字写得好，而且“表达”能力强，认识深刻，与众不同。答案:B52.解析：考查语境暗示。根据第二段Dio对死亡和失败的认识可以看出他的确认识深刻。答案:A53.解析：考查习惯用法。四个选项中只有help可以节省略to的不定式作宾语补足语。答案:C54.解析：考查习惯用法。同样，四个选项中只有let可以省略to的不定式作宾语补足语。答案:D55.解析：考查行文逻辑照应。

45、“你要站起来让所有的人都知道你是聪明的，你决心获取成功。我也坚信你会的。”be determined to do sth.“决心做某事”。答案:B第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，共40分)A“There has never been an earthquake or a typhoon in Thailand,” said Shi Meng,a 50-year-old Beijing tour guide to Thailands Phuket Island,told her Chinese visitors. That had been true until December 2

46、5,when she led 59 tourists to the island,a trip seemingly no difference from any other over the past 6 years of working with the Beijing Ocean International Travel Service.The trip went mainly as scheduled.The group first stayed at the Andaman Bangtao Bay Resort on the western bank of Phuket Island.

47、They then went to the Phi Phi Island on the first day and planned to visit Bon Island on the southeastern part of the island on the morning of December 26.Shi and some of the tourists noticed their beds shake at around eight in the morning.But they didnt pay much attention to the disturbance.No one

48、considered the possibility of an earthquake.As 20 members of the tour stayed in the hotel sleeping,Shi and another 28 tourists boarded a bus and headed for the sea.But because one tourist had a sore throat and wanted to get some medicine from his room,they stared off half an hour later than planned.

49、By the time they arrived at the seashore,they saw only locals running on the beach,catching grouper.The scene looked a bit strange because the species of fish only live in deep water.Shi then received a call from the hotel informing them there had been a tsunami.“If we set out on time,we would have

50、been caught by the tsunami where we went to the shore,”she said.Shi Meng believes staying with tour groups and traveling together helped many Beijing tourists avoid potential tragedies.But not all Chinese tourists are as Shi Meng and her group.Some Beijing tourists who traveled alone narrowly escape

51、d and a few were injured in the tsunami.By January 5,12 Chinese citizens had died in the tsunami,including 3 from the Chinese mainland.Sixteen people were injured and one person remains missing.(Beijing Weekend 2005-01-07 09:52)56.What is the news report mainly about?A.A narrow escape from the tsuna

52、mi.B.When and how the tsunami happened.C.How a tourist guide escape the tsunami.D.An adventurous trip during the tsunami.解析：本题考查对文章主旨大意地把握能力。A narrow escape(九死一生)非常形象地概括了一批赴泰国旅游的中国游客在巨大灾难中侥幸逃生的经历。其他项只不过是其中一个细节而已。答案:A57.What did Shi Meng and her group plan to do on December 26?A.To visit the Phi Phi

53、Island.B.To pay a visit to Bon Island.C.To have lunch at Phuket Island.D.To stay at the Andaman Bangtao Bay Resort.解析：依据第三段“planned to visit Bon Island on the southeastern part of the island on the morning of December 26”.本题考查细节理解能力。从文中可以明显地找到答案。答案:B58.Which of the following CANNOT explain why Shi M

54、eng and her group survived the tsunami?A.Staying with tour groups.B.Setting off 30 minutes later than planned.C.Traveling abroad together.D.20 tourists overslept.解析：依据第四段“As 20 members of the tour stayed in the hotel sleeping,Shi and another 28 tourists boarded a bus and headed for the sea.But becau

55、se one touristhad a sore throat and wanted to get some medicine from his room,they stared off half an hour later than planned”.本题考查根据细节进行分析的能力。12月6日，全体59名游客中有20人放弃外出待在宾馆睡觉(并非睡懒觉)，Shi 和其余28人已经坐上通往海滨的公交车，但由于一位游客嗓子疼返回宾馆取药导致整个行程推迟半小时。正是这个原因，他们才躲过这场灾难。所以D项表述有误。另根据倒数第二段，A、C项是他们在这次海啸灾难中得以生还的原因。答案:D59.Which

56、 of the following is NOT true?A.When the tsunami happened,Shi Meng 29 tourists were on the way to the seaside. B.Thailands Phuket Island must be a place attracting many tourists from all over the world.C.In spite of the tsunami the species of fish in the ocean lived a normal life. D.By January 5,thr

57、ee people from the Chinese mainland died in the tsunami. 解析：依据第五段“The scene looked a bit strange because the species of fish only live in deep water”.本题考查细节理解能力。发生海啸前后，海洋中的鱼类也很反常。其他项则与短文内容相吻合。答案:CBI find it good to be alone the greater part of the time,to be in company,even with the best,is soon bor

58、ing,and I never found a companion so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad than we stay in our chambers,for solitude is not measured by the space that comes between a man and his fellows. The farmer,who can work alone all day without feeling lonesome,but m

59、ust recreate with others at night,wonders how the student can sit alone at night；he does not realize the student,though in the house,is actually at work in his field and cutting his wood as the farmer is in his.Society is commonly too cheap：we meet at very short intervals,not having had time to acqu

60、ire any new value for each other；we meet at meals three times a day and try to give each other a new taste of that musty(发霉的) old cheese as we are；we live thick and are in each others way,and I think that we thus lose some respect for one another.We have now agreed on a certain set of rules,called m

61、anners and politeness,to make this frequent meeting tolerable；certainly less frequency would suffice(充足，足够) for all important and hearty communications between men.It would be better if there were but one inhabitant to a square mile,as where I live,for as the value of a man is not his skin,we need n

62、ot touch him.60.The writer of the passage considers “solitude”_.A.boringB.lonelyC.soundD.understandable解析：从第一段“and I never found a companion so companionable as solitude”可知文章对solitude(独处)持肯定的态度，sound表示“正确的、健康的”，从第二段可知。答案:C61.We know from the examples of the farmer and student that_ .A.solitude is a

63、necessary condition of workB.man needs recreation after workC.work satisfies mans need for solitudeD.people are not lonely when they are working解析：农民白天一个人耕地，学生晚上一个人学习，都不孤单，是因为他们都在工作。答案:D62.Living thick,the writer thinks,people will _.A.acquire respect for societyB.go around with others without respe

64、ctC.find new value in themselvesD.increase the value of their friendship解析：从第四段中“we live thick and are in each others way,and I think that we thus lose some respect for one another”.该句话可以判断出答案。答案:B63.It can be inferred that the value of a man can be_.A.found in external appearanceB.discovered throug

65、h skin contactC.felt through frequent meetingD.discovered without physical contact解析：该题为推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句的意思：通过身体的接触，是不会了解一个人的价值的。所以，我们可以推断出D选项符合作者的意思。答案:DCYou want something you cant get by behaving within the rules,and you want it badly enough youll do it regardless of any guilt or deep regret,and

66、youre willing to run the risk of being caught.Thats how Ladd Wheeler,psychology professor at the University of Rochester in New York,defines cheating.Many experts believe cheating is on the rise.“Were suffering a moral breakdown,” Pinkard says.“Were seeing more of the kind of person who regards the

67、world as a series of things to be dealt with.Whether to cheat depends on whether its in the persons interest.” He does,however,see less cheating among the youngest students.Richard Dienstbier,psychology professor at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln,believes that societys attitudes explain much

68、of the increase in cheating.“Twenty years ago if a person cheated in college,that is extremely serious,he will be dropped for a semester if not kicked out permanently,” he says.“Nowadays,at the University of Nebraska,for example,it is the stated policy of the College of Arts and Science that if a st

69、udent cheats in an exam,the student must receive an Fon what he cheated in.Thats nothing.If youre going to fail anyway,why not cheat?Cheating is most likely in situations where the interests are high and the chances of getting caught are low,” says social psychologist Lynn Kahle of the University of

70、 Oregon in Eugene.64.The passage focuses on _.A.making the reader believe that cheating is immoralB.discussing the reasons for cheatingC.describing how students cheat in examsD.suggesting how to control cheating解析：本题考查对主旨的理解。文章一开头心理学家Ladd Wheeler即提出作弊的定义，并提出Many experts believe cheating is on the ri

71、se.观点，接下来主要分析人们作弊的原因，特别是文章最后两句。答案:B65.Cheating tends to occur in all the following situations except when _.A.one wants something badlyB.one cant get something in a right wayC.it is not very likely to be found outD.a series of things have to be dealt with解析：本题考查推理判断。根据文章开头对作弊的定义可知A、B两项符合作弊的条件，再结合the

72、 chances of getting caught are low知C项也符合作弊的条件，因此，D项不属于作弊的条件。答案:D66.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.It is forgivable to cheat unless money is involved.B.There has been an increase in cheating.C.Most cheaters are college students.D.Cheaters do not feel guilty and regretful.解析

73、：本题考查正误判断。A项与文章中的Were suffering a moral breakdown不符，即作弊不是道德的；B项与文章中的相符合，故为正确的答案；C项文章中并没做明确说明；D项与文章中作弊的定义不符。答案:B67.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Cheating is widespread because society is too understanding.B.Cheating is the result of heavy pressure.C.Cheating is cheating,whether in a test or

74、 on any other occasions.D.Cheating comes together with civilization.解析：本题考查逻辑推理。从文章中的“believes that societys attitudes explain much of the increase in cheating”可推知A项正确。答案:ADAs a human being you may have the choice of three basic attitudes towards life. You may treat life with the philosophy(哲学)of th

75、e vegetable,in which case your life will include being born,eating,drinking,sleeping,marrying,growing old and dying. The second basic attitude is to look at life as if it were a business.A great many so-called successful men and women believe that life is a business.If you believe so,your first ques

76、tion of life,naturally,is “What do I get out of it?” “How much is this worth to me?” In a word,based on this attitude,happiness becomes a matter of successful competition.The great majority of human beings today look at life as if it were a business.The third attitude toward life is the way of the a

77、rtist.Here the basic philosophy is “What can I put into it?”.They value cooperation and contribution.This point of view has been proved by history；for history remembers best those who have contributed most richly to the interests of their fellow-men.The more we investigate(调查),the more we become cer
