Part Ⅱ
Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some
questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices
marked A), B), C), and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the
corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
Teachers always plan down to the minute what their students will be doing. This
is good for kids, because it teaches them to stay on task and follow a schedule.
But most homes aren’t run this way. If parents do plan their children’s lives
minute by minute, what happens when that child grows up and goes to college?
At some point, kids need to learn to manage their own time. This can be one
of the valuable skills you help your kids develop outside of school. But it
generally won’t happen all by itself, because there’s a big transition that
happens when kids leave the structured school environment and come home.
If you have kid stay alone at home, think hard about trying to find an adult
who
can be there and provide the support your child needs. If a supportive adult
is
n’t available, an expert named Martin recommends you find an after-school program
led by experienced professionals who will engage them in creative activities,
nourish them with healthy snacks, and assist them with their schoolwork. If
you are at home on the contrary, to take some break after the guys get started
on diversions, because it’s hard to stop and do something like homework. “If
that little bit of downtime is television, good luck ... getting them to do
their
homework.” says a professor of child development at California State University,
“TV is addictive.” A better way to help your child unwind is with a healthy
snack. “Wait until dinner, make a plate full of energizing food. You could even
dish up part of the dinner you’re preparing a little early for the kids,” she
says.
While you’re sharing a snack, you can make a list of what your kids will get
to
do during their study breaks. The types of breaks recommended include shooting
baskets, getting a drink, using the bathroom, or even playing a quick card game
with parents. Your kids can be the ones to decide which breaks they’d like to
take. But, as Freimuth says, your children will have to be honest about what
kind of break will energize them and not upset their momentum.
21. The main purpose of this passage is ____.
A) to provide some advice for the parents about children’s education
B) to explain how to prepare a pretty snack for your children
C) to explain why the parents spoil their children
D) to describe children’s lives after school
22. The words “this way” in the sentence “But most homes aren’t run this way”
in the first paragraph most possibly means ____.
A) to stay on the task
B) to arrange everything in details
C) to give some lessons to children
D) to behave in the structured school
23. According to the passage, the expert named Martin, appearing in the second
paragraph, most probably takes up the following jobs EXCEPT ____.
A) a specialist in children education
B) a professional consultant in a after-school program
C) the leader of a research group about sports, such as basketball
D) mostly the same as what Freimuth (in the last paragraph) does
24. According to the last two paragraphs, the appropriate snacks that the
parents provide will ____.
A) upset the children’s momentum
B) exhaust them by lots of dirty dishes
C) make the children get addicted to TV
D) bring more energy to children
25. Which of the following is NOT recommended for the break during the children’s
study after class?
A) Shoot baskets.
B) Play some games with parents.
C) Go out to drink some beverage in a bar for a long time.
D) Relax a bit by using the bathroom.
Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
Doors and windows can’t keep them out; airport immigration officers can’t stop
them and the Internet is an absolute reproduction soil. They seem harmless in
small doses, but large imports threaten Japan’s very uniqueness, say critics.
“They are foreign words and they are infecting the Japanese language”.
“Sometimes I feel like I need a translator to understand my own language,” says
Yoko Fujimura with little anger, a 60-year-old Tokyo restaurant worker. “It’s
becoming incomprehensible.”
It’s not only Japan who is on the defensive. Countries around the globe are
wet
through their hands over the rapid spread of American English. Coca-Cola, for
example, is one of the most recognized terms on Earth.
It is made worse for Japan,however, by its unique writing system. The country
writes all imported utterances - except Chinese - in a different script called
katakana（片假名）. It is the only country to maintain such a distinction. Katakana
takes far more space to write than kanji - the core pictograph（象形文字）characters
that the Japanese borrowed from China 1,500 years ago. Because it stands out,
readers complain that sentences packed with foreign words start to resemble
extended strings of lights. As if that weren’t enough, katakana terms tend to
get confusing. For example, digital camera first appears as degitaru kamera.
Then they became the more ear-pleasing digi kamey. But kamey is also the Japanese
word for turtle. “It’s very frustrating not knowing what young people are talking
about,” says humorously Minoru Shiratori, a 53-year-old bus driver. “Sometimes
I can’t tell if they’re discussing cameras or turtles.”
In a bid to stop the flood of katakana, the government has formed a Foreign
Words Committee to find suitable Japanese replacements. The committee is slightly
different from French-style language police, which try to support a law that
forbids advertising in English. Rather, committee members and traditionalists
hope a sustained campaign of persuasion, gentle criticism and leadership by
example can
turn the tide.
26. According to the author, the reason why the Japanese is infected greatly
by English is ____.
A) that nothing can prevent it from entering into Japan
B) that English is the most recognized language in the world
C) that the government has not set up a special administration department to
control this trend before it becomes popular in Japan
D) not clearly mentioned in this passage
27. By saying “countries around the globe are wet through their hands over the
rapid spread of American English,” the author implies that ____.
A) even a restaurant worker in Japan may feel the English infection on Japanese
B) the flood of katakana has covered most of countries in the world
C) Coca-Cola is the most popular brand of beverage on the earth and this product
occupy all the global market
D) many other countries are influenced greatly by American English
28. According to the passage, the following statements are true EXCEPT ____.
A) now there are two language systems, Kanji and katakana in Japan
B) the word “digital camera” appears very different in Japanese
C) people are always confused by the young Japanese pronunciation of “turtle”
and “camera”
D) Foreign Words Committee is engaged in finding suitable Japanese replacements
for the foreign words
29. According to the author, the last paragraph mainly deals with ____.
A) how French-style language police has prevented the influence of English
B) how Japanese Foreign Words Committee prevents the infection of foreign words
C) the suitable Japanese replacements
D) why committee members and traditionalists launch a war against the infection
of foreign words
30. Which conclusion can be drawn based on the opinions from the Japanese people
(in paragraph 2 and 4 of this passage)?
A) The elders are more strongly in favor of replacing the foreign words than
young people.
B) All the people dislike speaking the foreign words, such as “digi kamey”.
C) They are so old that it is necessary to give some language assistance by
a specialist.
D) People’s work determines the language they speak.
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
The Security Council is the most powerful body in the UN. It is responsible
for
maintaining international peace, and for restoring peace when conflicts arise.
Its decisions are binding on all UN members. The Security Council has the power
to define what is a threat to security, to determine how the UN should respond,
and to enforce its decisions by ordering UN members to take certain actions.
The Council convenes（召集）any time there is a threat to peace. A representative
from each member country who sits on the Council must be available at all times
so that the Council can meet at a moment’s notice. The Security Council also
frequently meets at the request of a UN member - often a nation with a grievance
about another nation’s actions.
The Security Council has 15 members; five of which hold permanent seats. The
Assembly elects the other ten members for two-year terms. The five permanent
members - the United States, Britain, France, Russia (formerly the Soviet Union),
and China - have the most power. These nations were the winning powers at the
end of World War II, and they still represent the bulk of the world’s military
might.
Decisions of the Council require nine votes. But any one of the permanent members
can veto an important decision. This authority is known as the veto right of
the great powers. As a result, the Council is effective only when its permanent
members can reach a consensus（一致同意）.
The Council has a variety of ways it can try to resolve conflicts among countries.
Usually the Council’s first step is to encourage the countries to settle their
disagreements without violence. The Council can mediate a dispute or recommend
guidelines for a settlement. It can send peacekeeping troops into a distressed
area. If war breaks out, the Council can call for a ceasefire. It can enforce
its decisions by imposing economic sanctions on a country, or through joint
military action.
31. Which is TRUE in the following statements according to the passage?
A) The Security Council convenes annually.
B) All UN members should abide by the decisions adopted by the Security Council.
C) Although one member seriously complains about another member’s action, the
Security Council will not convene at its request.
D) The five permanent members of the Security Council hold less than one half
armed forces in the world.
32. The Security Council is effective only when its permanent members can
reach a consensus because ____.
A) every permanent member has the veto right of great powers
B) all the permanent members won in the World War II
C) the other members of the Security Council are in the charge of the permanent
members
D) of some other reasons not mentioned in this passage
33. One motion（提议）is adopted by the Security Council only if ____.
A) 14 of 15 members accept this motion
B) all the members have no objection to the motion
C) 9 members agree on it and all the permanent members approve of it
D) all the permanent members pass it
34. The passage introduces all things about the Security Council EXCEPT____.
A) mission B) membership
C) rights D) history
35. The last paragraph of this passage may be concluded with the statement that
____.
A) UN gives priority to peaceful settlement of the conflicts among countries
B) the peacekeeping troops are most powerful in the conflicts between countries
C) economic sanction will be imposed on the countries involved in war
D) joint military action is the last resort of the Security Council in dealing
with conflicts between among countries
Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.
Few observers have a better view of that ocean of exchanging gossip called E-mail
than Mark Sunner. The chief technology officer of E-mail management company
MessageLabs, Sunner oversees a network that processes 4.5 million letters each
day. Servers operated and maintained by MessageLabs manage mail delivery and
routing for a number of companies, including Bank of England and Condé Nast
Publications.
In fact, all of MessageLabs’ customers are corporations whose daily E-mail output
and inflow has soared with the growth of the Web. “E-mail usage has increased
massively in the last couple of years,” he says. Indeed, MessageLabs estimates
that it has gone from 10 a day per employee as recently as two years ago to
more
like 20 or 30 now.
The implications for Corporate America are equally huge. According to E-mail
researcher and consultant David Ferris, companies can expect the volume of E-mail
coursing through their servers to grow 60% to 80% in 2002. And as individual
mess
ages grow in size - they’re now more likely to contain memory - companies could
end up paying 100% to 150% more just this year on systems to store and manage
those messages. That’s why tech consultancy Radicati Group expects demand for
soft
ware that manages E-mail, such as Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes, to grow
from $2.6 billion in sales today to $4.4 billion by 2005.
Too much of this money will be spent in controlling pure junk. About 20% of
the
E-mail MessageLabs manages is unwanted, according to Sunner - who adds that
ab
out 1.25% of all the E-mail his company moves contains useless attachments.
Already, the cost of handling spam（垃圾邮件）is estimated at $8.6 billion worldwide,
according to a 2001 European Union study. And the barrage of pornographic spam
has made some companies worried that employees might sue on grounds of disturbance
arising from exposure to unwanted unpleasantness.
36. The first sentence of this passage “Few observers have a better view of
that ocean of exchanging gossip called E-mail than Mark Sunner” most probably
means ____. A) Mark Sunner clearly know the E-mail is wasting resources
B) no one knows the fact that E-mail is gossip exchanging way but Mark Sunner
C) Mark Sunner does not know anything about the E-mail
D) the Mark Sunner always concentrated on the ocean of the junk E-mail
37. Which of the following is NOT true about MessageLabs?
A) It is an E-mail management company.
B) All of MessageLabs’ customers are corporations.
C) Mark Sunner is the chief technology officer of MessageLabs.
D) The company puts the great emphasis on dealing with the junk E-mail.
38. The word “that” in the last sentence of the third paragraph most possibly
means ____.
A) it is expected that Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes grow from $2.6 billion
in sales today to $4.4 billion by 2005
B) the junk E-mail has been overloaded in the Internet
C) the increase of individual messages needs more staff
D) the company has paid 100% to 150% for individual message storage
39. The following statements about the E-mail have been mentioned EXCEPT ____.
A) Sunner oversees a network that processes 4.5 million letters each day
B) according to David Ferris, companies can expect the volume of E-mail passing
through their servers to grow not more than 50% in 2002
C) too much money has been spent in controlling the junk E-mail
D) some employees might take legal action in accordance with annoyance arising
from exposure to some unpleasant resources
40. What is the best title for the passage?
A) The E-mail Monster.
B) MessageLabs Business Introduction.
C) To Avoid E-mail Surge.
D) E-mail Destroys Everything.

Part Ⅳ
Error Correction (15 minutes)
Directions: This part consists of a short passage. In this passage, there are
altogether 10 mistakes, one in each numbered line. You may have to add a word,
cross out a word, or change a word. Mark out the mistakes and put the corrections
in the blanks provided. If you add a word, put a “∧”mark in the correct place.
If you cross out a word, put a slash “/”in the blank.
The need for a surgical operation, especially an emergency operation, almost
always comes as a severe shock for the patient and his family.
Despite of modern advances, most people still have an irrational fear of hospitals
and anesthetics.
Patients do not often believe they really need surgery-cutting into a part of
the body as opposed with treatment with drugs.
In the early years of this century there was much specialization. A good surgeon
was able of performing almost every operation that had been devised up to that
time. Today the situation isn’t different. Operations are now being carried
out that were not even dreamed fifty years ago. The heart can be safely opened
and its
valves repair. Clogged blood vessels can be cleaned out, and broken one mended
or replaced. A lung, the whole stomach, or even part of the brain can be removed
and still permit the patient to live a comfortable and satisfactory life. However,
not every surgeon wants to, or is qualifying to carry out every type of modern
operation.

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension
Passage One
内容概要:文章主要讲教育问题。在学校，老师会将学生要做的一切都安排好时间，但他们在家里不是这样。孩子应学会自己安排时间，这样做对他们今后发展有好处。就家长如何在课外教育孩子，作者提出了很多建议。
21. 【答案】A
【译文】文章的主旨是就家长如何教育孩子，提供了一些建意。
【试题分析】主题题。
【详细解答】文章在多处提到了父母应当怎样教育孩子，并且在文章的第一段中指出“如果父母把孩子的生活细节都设计好了，那么孩子长大后上了大学会发生怎样的情况？”（If
parents do plan their children’s lives minute by minute, what happens when that
child grows up and goes to college?）在接下来的段落中，文章就上述问题向父母们提出了很多建议。所以选A。
22. 【答案】B
【译文】“this way”在句中意味着把每件事都安排得清清楚楚。
【试题分析】指示代词的理解。
【详细解答】本句之前的句子说，老师总是将学生要做的一切事都按分钟计算安排好。这便是this way所指的内容，即和老师安排学生的学习一样，家长将孩子要做的每件事的细节都设计好。所以选B。
23. 【答案】C
【译文】根据原文，Martin不可能是某个体育研究组的负责人。
【试题分析】推断题。
【详细解答】从上下文推断，Martin的工作应当和教育有关，所以选项A，B的表述正确。另外，根据最后一段Freimuth所提的建议看，他也可能从事教育工作，因此与Martin的工作性质很可能相同，符合选项D。只有C不能从文章中推断出来。所以选C。
24.【答案】D
【译文】根据文章最后两段，父母提供适宜的小吃将会使孩子精神抖擞。
【试题分析】细节题。
【详细解答】文章最后一句 ...what kind of break will energize them and not upset their momentum.的意思为“……怎样的休息方式才能使他们精力充沛而不会打击他们的热情。”结合上下文可知，父母提供的适宜的小吃（snack）将会使孩子们精神抖擞。所以选D。原文中的energize与选项D中的energy词根相同，意思相近，词性不同。
25. 【答案】C
【译文】不符合学生课后休息的是长时间待在酒吧里喝饮料。
【试题分析】细节题。
【详细解答】文章最后一段中推荐的休息方式包括投篮、喝点饮料、方便一下或者和父母做一次快速的卡片游戏（The types of breaks recommended
include shooting baskets, getting a drink, using the bathroom, or even playing
a quick card game with parents.），这些与选项C的“长时间待在酒吧里喝饮料”意思不同。所以选项C是正确答案。
Passage Two
内容概要：门户开放和因特网使日语被外语“感染”。因为日语的独特性，外来词在日语中的发音很容易使人产生误解，文章中最后提出了日本人为改变这种情况所采取的方法。
26. 【答案】D
【译文】根据作者的观点，日语大受英语影响的原因不明确。
【试题分析】推断题。
【详细解答】文章在第一部分（第一、二、三段）中说明了日本语言被外来英语“感染”的情况，以至于某位老先生需要请一位翻译来翻译自己的语言；第二部分（第四段）举例，从细节上了说明了这种情况；然后最后一部分（第五段）提出了日本人为改变这种情况采取的办法。对于产生这种情况的原因文章并未明确提到，所以选D。
27. 【答案】D
【译文】这句话暗含了很多国家的语言都受美式英语的影响。
【试题分析】推断题。
【详细解答】通过上下文举的例子可以推断出，其他国家也受到美国英语的影响，比如全世界的人都知道英语单词Coca-Cola。所以选D。
28. 【答案】A
【试题分析】推断题。
【详细解答】选项A提及的kanji和katakana只是书写时所占位置的多少不同（Katakana takes far more space to write
than kanji），两者都是日本语言的组成部分。所以选项A说的日本有kanji和katakana两种语言系统是不对的。所以选A。
29. 【答案】B
【译文】最后一段主要是讲日本外来语协会如何使本国语言不受外来语影响。
【试题分析】主题题。
【详细解答】参照题1的解释，最后一段应当是解释Foreign Words Committee的作用，所以选B。
30.【答案】A
【译文】老年人更希望换掉外来词。
【试题分析】推断题。
【详细解答】从第二段和第四段两个老人所讲的话中可以看出，他们对日本语言目前的情况都比较理解。结合文章中所举的有关年轻人与digital camera的例子，最有可能的推断就是：老年人比年轻人更支持换掉外来词。所以选A。
Passage Three
内容概要：安理会是联合国最具影响力的机构。文章介绍了安理会的使命、权力；会员国的组成和会员国在安理会决议中的作用以及安理会解决国与国之间争端的方法。
31. 【答案】B
【译文】根据文章可知，所有成员国都必须遵受安理会做出的决定。
【试题分析】细节题。
【详细解答】文章第一段说，“安理会的决定对所有成员国都有约束力。”（Its decisions are binding on all UN members.），即所有成员国都必须遵守安理会做出的决议，所以选项B正确。选项A不对，因为第二段提到“只要和平受到威胁，安理会就会召开会议”。选项D不对，因为五个常任理事国代表了世界上大部分的军事力量（...
they still represent the bulk of the world’s military might）。
32. 【答案】A
【译文】只有当成员国达成共识，安理会才能发挥作用，因为每个成员国都有否决权。
【试题分析】细节题。
【详细解答】第三段指出，“任何一个常任理事国都可以对某项重要决议投否决票。”（But any one of the permanent members
can veto an important decision.），所以选A。
33.【答案】C
【译文】只有当赞成票数在9票以上，全部通过，安理会的决议才能生效。
【试题分析】推断题。
【详细解答】根据第三段的描述，只有当赞成票数在9票以上（Decisions of the Council require nine votes），并且常任理事国没有投否决票时，安理会的决议才能生效。选项B不正确，因为各成员国不反对并不一定意味着赞成，成员国还可以投弃权票。
34. 【答案】D
【译文】文章中没有谈到安理会的历史。
【试题分析】推断题。
【详细解答】文章就安理会的使命、权力、会员国这几个方面进行了介绍，惟独没有提到安理会的历史，所以选D。
35.【答案】A
【译文】文中最后一段总结安理会的职能是有权使各成员国之间和平解决争端。
【试题分析】细节题。
【详细解答】最后一段提到，“安理会的首选策略通常是鼓励有冲突的国家和平解决问题。”（Usually the Council’s first step is
to encourage the countries to settle their disagreements without violence.）所以选A。
Passage Four
内容概要：E-mail 发展迅速越来越多的人开始使用它。但网上，垃圾文件泛滥也是一个不争的事实，它也带来了负面影响。
36.【答案】A
【译文】文章第一句的意思是Mark Sumer清楚地知道E-mail是在浪费资源。
【试题分析】句子理解题。
【详细解答】文章第一句话的意思是“没有人比Mark Sunner更懂得e-mail废话成堆的特点。”所以选A。
37.【答案】D
【译文】MessageLabs的重点不是处理垃圾邮件。
【试题分析】细节题。
【详细解答】第四段第二句表示“MessageLabs公司管理的邮件中有20％是无用的邮件……”（About 20% of the e-mail MessageLabs
manages is unwanted ...）由此可见，公司的重点并不是垃圾邮件。此外，其他三项均可在第一段和第二段中找到对应点，所以选D。
38.【答案】D
【译文】第三段的最后一句中“that”指的是公司投入100%-150%在个人信息储存上。
【试题分析】上下文推断题。
【详细解答】代词that的指代对象应该从前一句中寻找。前一句指出“……为了存储和管理上述信息，这些公司仅今年一年就可能要在系统建设上增加100%到150%的费用。”（...companies
could end up paying 100% to 150% more just this year on systems to store and
manage those messages.）此内容与选项D相符，所以选D。
39. 【答案】B
【译文】在David Ferris看来，公司在2002年的E-mail服务不能超过50%的观点是不对的。
【试题分析】细节题。
【详细解答】根据第三段第二句，选项B中的not more than 50%应当为60% to 80%才对，所以选B。此外，其他选项在文中都可找到对应点。
40. 【答案】A
【译文】最好的标题是“The E-mail Monster”。
【试题分析】文章主题推断题。
【详细解答】文章在第一句中就说…that ocean of exchanging gossip c
alled E-mail…，说明了作者对E-mail的态度是否定的，后面部分又分析E-mail的其他缺点，如浪费资源和不安全等。所以，选项A中的Monster（妖怪）比较形象地表达了作者的看法。
Part Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure
41. 【答案】A
【译文】一个新产品不由商业广告作出的承诺来判断，而是由它所展示出来的结果来判断。
【试题分析】本题为词汇分析题。
【详细解答】demonstrate示范，证明；suggest建议，暗示；appear看来，似乎；contain包含。suggest、appear不一定是经过证明的，而contain经常指物理含量。故A为正确答案。
42. 【答案】D
【译文】经过多年坚苦斗争之后，美国妇女于1920年得到了一直被剥夺的选举权。
【试题分析】本题为词汇辨析题。
【详细解答】ignore不顾，忽视；neglect不被重视；忽视；refuse拒绝；deny拒绝给与。根据句意：妇女的选举权不是被忽视，而是被剥夺，故排除A、B；refuse常用的结构
是：refuse to do，不符合本题。deny相当于refuse to give，后面常接双宾语。四个选项中只有D正确。
43.【答案】C
【译文】冲突双方同意共同商讨他们的问题。
【试题分析】本题为词汇辨析题
【详细解答】converse谈话，交谈，常用于converse with sb. on/upon sth.。其中所要涉及的交谈的内容常用介词on，而不用to；exchange交换，调换，常指互换，如兑换外汇等；talk为不及物动词，后面不能直接接宾语，可以说成talk
over sth, 详尽地商议, 商量, 讨论, 说服；discuss讨论，常指详尽地商讨有关议题，符合本题题意。
44. 【答案】B
【译文】冬天雪在建筑物顶部积累到一定重量后会损坏建筑物，甚至有时也会使屋顶倒塌。
【试题分析】本题为词汇辨析题。
【详细解答】 accumulate积聚，堆积，强调“经过一段比较长的时间由少而多的积累”；glean拾落穗，强调一点一点地收集；assemble所有的意义都表明所涉及的人或物有确定的通常是紧密的联系。这个词表示涉及的人是出于共同的兴趣或目的而聚集：fall落下，只是描写“下雪”这一过程，不能说明导致屋顶坍塌的原因。只有当雪积聚到一定程度时，才能造成屋顶坍塌。所以，答案为B。注意，句中的cause提示考生本题为因果关系题。
45. 【答案】C
【译文】当组织者宣布：“你应该获得这枚奖牌”时，这个勇敢者感到了莫大的荣幸。
【试题分析】本题为词汇辨析题。
【详细解答】earn赚得，获得；deserve应得，应受；reserve储备，保存。earn和deserve有相似之处，两者都有“获得”之意，但后者含有“应该获得”的意思。
46. 【答案】B

【试题分析】本题为词汇辨析题。
【详细解答】fee费，尤指学费、会费等；duty税，尤指海关所收取的进口税等。此处要尤其注意duty一词的这个特殊含义。

【试题分析】本题为词汇辨析题。
【详细解答】句中的因果关系提示原因是要同时出发，那么其结果是要对表。test测试，测试的目的是了解被测物的质量、特性等；correct是为了改正所犯的错误；stabilize使稳定或稳固，通常表示形式、局势等稳定发展。check是为准确性而做的调查或检验；检查核对，适合本题题意。
48. 【答案】A
【译文】你自认为你很聪明，相反，我认为你很笨。
【试题分析】本题为短语辨析题。
【详细解答】很明显，题中前后两种情况完全相反，四个选项中能够表达这一含义的短语只有on the contrary（相反的）。on the other side是叙述一件事情两个方面中的另一面；in

49. 【答案】C

【试题分析】本题为词汇辨析题。
【详细解答】elastic有弹性的；strong坚固的，强大的；fragile脆的，易碎的；steady稳定的。相对于本题中的结果状语--指甲长到一定长度后就脱落了，究其原因一定是指甲易断、脆，故C为正确答案。
50. 【答案】B

【试题分析】本题为词汇辨析题。
【详细解答】四个选项都含有count，但意义不同：encounter遭遇，遇到，相遇；count on依赖，依靠；account for说明，解决；discount折扣。句中分号连接的两个部分互为解释，起到的是等号的作用；另外，注意句中的never一词，实际上否定的let

61. 【答案】D
【译文】赞成这项提议的人可以举一下手吗？
【试题分析】本题为短语用法。
【详细解答】in relation to“与……有关”；in contrast to“和……形成对比（对照）”；in excess of“大于；多于”；
in favor of“支持；赞同”。句中有“举手的”，那必定有“不举手的”，明显是持不同态度的至少两组人。B、C两项与本题句意无关，排除；A项只是一个中性短语。因此只有D为正确答案。

63. 【答案】B
【译文】谁允许你开我的车？
【试题分析】本题为词汇用法题。
【详细解答】allow sb. to do sth.允许某人作某事；其次，注意drive与ride的区别：ride乘坐，强调乘坐并向既定的方向移动或运动，尤指使被运载，例如：to
ride a motorcycle to town骑摩托车进城，a swimmer riding the waves游泳健儿乘风破浪；drive驾驶，操纵，是主动性的行为。
64. 【答案】A
【译文】我相信这计划会被充分领会。
【试题分析】本题为词汇用法题。
【详细解答】doubt后可以接that，whether或if：whether一般引导一个间接问句，所以当主语所代表的人确实不知如何选择判断时，传统上就用whether，例如：
Sue has studied so much philosophy this year that she’s begun to doubt whether
she exists.
今年苏钻研哲学下了不少功夫，现在她都开始怀疑自己是否存在了。
而当 doubt用来低调表示“不相信，不信任”之意的时候，则用that，例如：
I doubt that we’ve seen the last of that problem.
我不相信我们完全解决了那个问题。
另外，在否定句及疑问句中，当doubt后的从句所作陈述被认为是真时，用that，例如本题。

【试题分析】本题为词汇用法题。

68. 【答案】C
【译文】他被处以死刑，这在我看来是理所当然的。
【试题分析】本题为固定搭配题。
【详细解答】be sentenced to death为固定搭配，意为“被宣判死刑”。故C为正确答案。
69. 【答案】A
【译文】野餐时带把伞，即使你并不希望用它。
【试题分析】本题为语法固定搭配题。
【详细解答】anticipate doing sth为习惯用法。故A为正确答案。

该做作文题目属问题解决式题型，应按着提出问题、分析问题、解决问题的思路组织段文。在写作过程中一定注意句与句、段与段之间的连贯和衔接。
2）参考范文：
Why Should We Terminate Test — oriented Education
Nowadays, the call for quality-oriented education is becoming widespread and
the
drawbacks of test-oriented education, which have aroused great concern throughout
China, are becoming increasingly apparent.
Students’ creativity is completely eliminated by test-oriented education, because
their only purpose of learning is to pass exams. School-age children are often
seen carrying bulging bags on their backs, weighed down on their way to and
from school every day. Bombarded with too much tedious homework, students can
do nothing but attempt to hastily finish their homework and even burn the mid
night oil as they plough through it. Facing so many exams, students are becoming
apathetic and disillusioned and are in danger of being turned into automatons.
Besides their heavy school work, they are also expected to learn other skills,
like playing a musical instrument, in their spare time. Poor kids!
What causes this grave problem? In my view, some of the blame goes to parents
and teachers. Parents set too high a standard for their children and are too
eager to mold them, disregarding their individuality with a callous attitude
towards
their personal development. At school, teachers put a high premium on the students’
scores in exams, which results in an overemphasis on exam performance. Performance
tables are the sole criterion for assessing a teacher’s ability, with everything
hinging upon exam results.
It’s time to call a halt to such a test-oriented education. Hence, I would like
to recommend the following measures. To start with, we should free students
from
the heavy burdens of study to give them more freedom. Second, teachers and parents
should understand that scores in exams are not everything.
