      Lucy: Hi, Kate. What are you doing tonigh?
      Kate:6 Any suggestions?
      Lucy:7 I’m planning it for days.
      Kate: A 3D film? What stars?
      Lucy: Suraj Sharma, a handsome young actor.
      Kate: Oh! 8
      Lucy: An Idian boy’s unusual experience with a tiger at sea.
      Kate:9 What time is it on?
      Lucy: Half past six. 10
      Kate: Sure. When and where shall we meet?
      Lucy: Let’s meet around six at the gate of Oscar Cinema.
      Kate: Great. See you then.
      1. Not decided yet. B. What is it about?

C. Wow, sounds cool. D. Could you pick me up?

E. Do you want to join me? F. What about going to a concert?

G. How about seeing the 3D film Life of Pie?

【要点综述】此段对话中有7轮问答，主要内容是关于晚上的计划安排。选项中有两个陈述句，其中一个肯定，一个否定句；三个特殊疑问句和两个一般疑问句。对话内容是：露西邀请凯特晚上六点半一起去奥斯卡电影院看3D电影《少年派的奇幻漂流》。话题符合高中学生生活，该题比较简单。

6.【答案】A

【解析】此题为第一轮问答的答语。由问句What are you doing tonight?可以确定答语应该是表示计划或打算的陈述句。而根据其后的问句，Any suggestions?可以确定Kate并没有确切的计划或安排。故答案为Not decided yet。

7.【答案】G

【解析】根据常识判断此空应该填一个表示具体建议或意见的陈述句或一个征求意见的委婉问句，根据后文A 3D film?可知Lucy提出的意见是去看3D电影，故答案选G。

8.【答案】B

【解析】答句为关于电影内容的陈述句，据此可以判断，问句应该就电影内容提出疑问，故选B。

9.【答案】C

【解析】根据上下文判断，此处一定不是疑问句，此处应选择一个陈述句，作为对上轮答句的评价，根据排除法可确定此处答案为C。

10.【答案】E

【解析】答句为sure，则其问句必为一般疑问句。根据答句内容约定的时间和地点可以确定Lucy并未要求Kate来接她。故根据排除法可以确定答案为E。

第三节：语法和词汇知识（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）

从每小题的A,B,C,D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

11. On Monday mornings it usually me an hours to drive to work although the actual distance is only 20 miles.

A. takes B. is taking C. took D. will take

【答案】A

【解析】考查动词时态。根据标志词on Monday mornings，usually可以判断应用一般现在时态。故选A。

12. My mom suggests that we eat out for a change this weekend.

A. should B. might C. could D. would

【答案】A

【解析】考查虚拟语气。题干关键词为suggest，表示建议，其后所接的名词性从句应用“（should+）动词原形”的虚拟语气，故选A。

13. Let those in need that we will go all out to help them.

A. to understand B. understand C. understanding D. understood

【答案】B

【解析】考查非谓语动词。动词let后接动词原形understand做宾补，表示与宾语those in need之间为主动关系，构成短语let sb do sth。故选B。

14. The witnesses by the police just now gave very different descriptions of the fight.

A. questioned B. being questioned C. to be questioned D. having questioned

【答案】A

【解析】考查非谓语动词。首先判断此处需要一个非谓语动词作witnesses的后置定语；且判断动词question与witnesses间为被动关系；根据非谓语动词短语中标志词just now可知动作question已经完成。故可选A。区别：done作后置定语意为“已被…的”；being done作后置定语意为“正被…的”；to be done作后置定语意为“将被…的”。

15 --I’m tired. I’m taking next week off.

-- , honey. You do need a break.

A. Not so sure B. Forget it C. Great idea D. No way

【答案】C

【解析】考查交际用语。根据语境：——我累了。我下周请假。——亲爱的，你确实需要休息。可知此处回答应表示赞成，故选C，Great idea（好主意）。

16. is often the case with children, Amy was better by the time the doctor arrived.

A. It B. That C. What D. As

【答案】D

【解析】考查定语从句。此处as引导的定语从句位于主句之前，指代整个主句内容。意为：正如孩子们常有的情况一样，医生到的时候Amy就好了。

17. Jim a late night film at home when, right in the middle of a thrilling scene, the television went blank.

A. watched B. had watched C. was watching D. would be watching

【答案】C

【解析】考查动词时态。此处固定句型：was/ were doing sth when…意为：正在做某事的时候，突然…。故答案选C，表示这一动作在过去一直在进行。

18. I have heard a lot of good things about you I came back from abroad.

A. since B. until C. before D. when

【答案】A

【解析】考查状语从句。根据句意及主从句时态即可判断为A项，因为since从句用一般过去时，主句用现在完成时。译为：自从我从国外回来，我已经听说了关于你的许多好的事情。

19. Marco Polo is said to have sailed on Pacific Ocean on his way to Java in I thirteenth century.

A. the; a B. a; / C. /; the D. the; the

【答案】D

【解析】考查冠词。第一空指独一无二的事物用the；第二空为固定短语，表示在多少世纪“in the –th century”，需加定冠词。故答案为D。

20. It remains to be seen the newly formed committee’s policy can be put into practice.

A. that B. which C. what D. whether

【答案】D

【解析】考查名词性从句。题干中it作形式主语，真正主语为横线后的主语从句。判断主语从句中不缺少主干成分，因此排除代词BC两项；“有待被观察”的事情应是不确定的事而不是表陈述，即排除表陈述的that应用whether表“是否”。

21. The children lost in the woods; otherwise, they would have been at the lakeside camp as scheduled.

A. must have got B. must get C. should have got D. should get

【答案】A

【解析】考查情态动词。副词otherwise之前的句子表示推测，之后的句子表示虚拟。句意为：孩子们肯定在树林里迷路了；否则的话，他们就该按计划在湖边的宿营地了。故选A，must have done表示对过去发生事情的肯定推测，意为：过去肯定已经…。

22. Although Rosemary had suffered from a serious illness for years, she lost of her enthusiasm for life.

A. some B. neither C. none D. all

【答案】C

【解析】考查代词。根据句意：虽然Rosemary这些年患上了一种严重的疾病，但是她并没丧失对生活的一点热情，可知选否定词，排除AD；而neither指两者，应予以排除，故选C。

23. –Shall we go for a drink at one o’clock this afternoon?

-- . Will two o’clock be OK?

A. Sure, it’s up to you B. Sure, no problem

C. Sorry, I can’t make it D. Sorry, I’m not available today

【答案】C

【解析】考查交际用语。第一个人问：一点钟可以吗？第二个人问：两点可以吗？意思是他一点不行。故答案选C。

24. The manager wants to see changes in the company, and I am sure he will .

A. in particular B. in turn C. in charge D. in time

【答案】D

【解析】考查介词短语。A项“特别，尤其”；B项“轮流”；C项“管理”；D项“迟早，及时”。根据句意选D。

In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five fays off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured （使…放心）me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
50. The author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because .
A. her work delayed her trip to Sydney B. she was going home for her holidays
C. the town was far away from Sydney D. she missed the only train back home
51. Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?
A. He helped the girl find a ride. B. He gave the girl a ride back home.
C. He bought sandwiches for the girl. D. He watched the girl for three hours.
52. The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that .
A. she realized he was Gordon B. she had known him for decades
C. she was going to the nearby town D. she wanted to repay the favour she once got
53. What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?
A. Giving sometimes produces nice results.
B. Those who give rides will be rapid.
C. Good manners bring about happiness.
D. People should offer free rides to others.

According to sociologists（社会学家）, every modern industrial society has some form of social stratification（阶层）. Class, power and status are important in deciding people’s rank in society.
Class means a person’s economic position in society. A commonly used classification is lower class, middle class and upper class. While sociologists disagree on how these terms should be exactly defined, they do describe societies like the United States quite well. One study shows that 53% of Americans belong to the lower class, 46% the middle class, and 1% the upper class. Interestingly, a surgeon earning ＄500,000 a year and a bus driver earning ＄50,000 a year both regard themselves as the middle class!
Power refers to the amount of control a person has over other people. Obviously, people in positions of great power (such as governors) exercise（行使）big power, but people who take orders from others have less power. Power and class do not always go hand in hand, however. For example, the governor of a state has great power, but he or she may not belong to a corresponding （相应的）economic class. Generally, however, there is a relationship between power and class.

To our knowledge, there aren’t too many people who aren’t millionaires in the U.S. Senate!
Status is the honor or respect attached to a person’s position in society. It can also be affected by power and class, but not necessarily so. For example, a university professor may have a high status but not belong to a high social class or have a lot of power over others.
54. What can we learn about “the middle class” from Paragraph 2?
A. People earning ＄50,000 a year belong to the middle class.
B. Nearly half Americans belong to the middle class.
C. People generally consider bus drivers as the middle class.
D. Sociologists have a clear definition of the middle class.
55. According to the text, we know that _____.
A. power and class do not always correspond with each other
B. status refers to a person’s economic position in society
C. people with high status have a lot of control over others
D. class is less important in deciding a person’s social rank
56. Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?

A. B. C. D.

About 30 years ago,I left Cuba for the United States with my son.After getting settled finally in Brunswick,New Jersey,I enrolled(注册) my son in kindergarten. Several weeks later,my son’s teacher asked me to meet him at his office.

In the teacher’s office, and exchange of greetings was followed by his questions: “Is your son mentally retarded(弱智的)？Does he suffer from any kind of mental disability?”

Was he talking about my wonderful Scola? NO,no,it can’t be. What a helpless,lonely moment! I told him that Scola was a quiet,sweet little boy,instead.I asked him why he was asking me all these questions.

My son could not follow the teacher’s directions, he told me,and thus,Scola was disruptingthe class,Did’t he know my son did not speak English yet?

He was angry; “Why hasn’t your son been taught to speak English? Don’t you speak English at home?”

No,I didn’t speak English at home,I replied. I was sure my son would learn English in a couple of months,and I didn't want him to forget his native language.Well,wrong answer! What kind of person would not speak in English to her son at home and at all time? “Are you one of those people who come to this country to save dollars and send them back to their country, never wanting to be a part of this society?”

Needless to say,I tried to tell him I was not one of “those people.” Then he told me the meeting was over,and I left.

As I had expected,my son learned to speak English fluently before the school year was over.He went on to graduate from college and got a job,earning close to six figures.He travels widely and leads a well-adjusted, contented life. And he has benefited from being bilingual(双语的)。

Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others;it teaches people about other cultures and other places—something very basic and obviously lacking in the “educator” I met in New Jersey.

57.The teacher asked the author to his office__________.

A to discuss Scola’s in-class performance B to get Scola enrolled in kindergarten

C to find a language partner for Scola D to work out a study plan for Scola

58.What does the underlined word “disrupting” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A Breaking B Following C Attending D Disturbing

59.The author’s attitude towards being bilingual may best be described as__________.

A critical B casual C positive D passive

60.This text is likely to be selected from a book of _________.

A medicine B education C geography D history

We keep animals as pets because they are attractive. We all have the urge to possess something that has aesthetic（审美的）value, and this is why we treasure paintings or fine furniture. Keeping pets is one form of this urge. A Siamese cat in the house can be a decorative object. Pets are playful animals and they amuse us. A little rabbit amuses us by its playful and lively runs.

63.

Many parents find it helpful to have pets in the house for their children. Habing pets is an excellent way of developing in children the love of animals and reponsibility. Children get the opportunity to take on full responsibitity for another creature’s life. It will be an educational expreience for a child to watch the natural life cycle of an animal. There are psychological benefits for children. Pets are welcome friends for children who are lonely. Pets are excellent companions. Keeping pets means giving love and being loved. We find comfort in giving care and receiving care in return. We get pleasure from their appearance and their behavior.

64.

As more people move into apartments, there are limitations on keeping of animals like dogs and monkeys. Therefore, caged animals have increased in popularity. Birds fall into this group. We keep them for their beautiful songs and feathers. Fish-keeping is a widespread hobby and the keeper can observe their behavior in the glass tank and study its entire life cycle. The cat is a fine house pet and it fits neatly into human habitation(居住地) without requiring its own cage. They are wonderful hunters, if there are rats around.

65.

Pets satisfy man’s desire to care for a bit of nature. The pet owner has the responsibility for supplying those needs that nature provides. Pets are amusing and entertaining, but we are in a way doing animals harm by making them live in a human environment. Are we not enslaving(奴役)them?

【Possible Version】

I am an 18-year-old middle school student. I have been busy with my study and seldom help my parents with the housework. Feeling quite sorry for that, I begin to think about what to do to help.

Last Sunday, when my parents went out shopping, I suddenly got an idea: why not give the rooms a thorough cleaning? FirstlyI collected all the books, newspapers and other things scattered in the rooms and put them in place. ThenI wiped the dust off all the furniture. After that, I swept and mopped the floors.

At this very moment, my parents came back and were quite surprised to see all the rooms tidy and floors shining. My mother gave me a hug and I could see satisfaction in her eyes. Tired as Iwas,I never felt so happy.
