Part II Structure (10 minutes)Directions: This part is to test your ability to use words and phrases correctly to construct meaningful and grammatically correct sentences．It consists of 2 sections．

Section ADirections: There are 10 incomplete statements here．You are required to complete each statement by choosing the appropriate answer from the 4 choices marked A)，B)，C) and D)．

21． Having a trip around the country is certainly good for the old couple, but it remains______ whether they will enjoy it.

A．to see B．to be seen C．seeing D．seen

正确答案：B

解析：本题考查固定用法。it remains to be seen为固定用法，意思为“尚不确定，说不准”，but后面的分句是一个含有主语从句的复合句，it为这一复合句的形式主语，真正的主语为whether they will enjoy it，故答案为B)。

22． It was suggested that the construction______ahead of time. A．is completed B．was completed C．be completed D．must complete

正确答案：C

解析：本题考查虚拟语气。虚拟语气用在包含suggest，demand，propose等表示建议、命令等的主语从句、宾语从句中时，从句谓语动词常为“(should+)动词原形”。又由于从句中的主语the construction与后面的动词是被动关系，故本题答案为C)。

23． Only when class began______that he had lost his bag in the street. A．will he realize B．he did realize C．did he realize D．should he realize

正确答案：C

解析：本题考查倒装结构。当“only+状语／状语从句”位于句首时，主句要用部分倒装结构，即将助动词或情态动词放在主语前面，且主句的时态为过去时，所以答案为C)。

24． All the preparations for the task______, and we re ready to start. A．completed B．complete

C．have completed

D．have been completed

正确答案：D 解析：本题考查现在完成时的被动语态。表示已经发生的动作对现在产生的影响时，应用现在完成时态。All the preparations和complete之间是被动关系，所以应用被动语态，因此空格处应用现在完成时的被动语态，所以答案为D)。

25． Do you know______they talked about yesterday evening? A．what B．when C．why D．how

正确答案：A

解析：本题考查宾语从句。本题空格处所填词既要能引导一个从句作know的宾语，又能作talked about的宾语，这种情况下，只能用what，故选A)。

26． Many a specialist______ looking forward to attending that conference now and they______ plants in the last two years to prepare for it.

A．is: have been studying B．is: has been studying C．are: have been studying D．is: are studying

正确答案：A

解析：本题考查主谓一致。many a意为“很多”，但它强调个体，即“每一个”，因此谓语动词应用单数形式。句中的时间状语是in the last two years，说明句中谓语动词表示的动作发生在过去；结合句意可知，这一动作从两年前开始一直持续到现在，将来可能还会继续，因此第二个空格所在分句应用现在完成进行时，故A)正确。

27． I don’t think you can finish the project in one month, ______? A．don’t I B．can I C．can you D．can’t you

正确答案：C

解析：本题考查反义疑问句。对于含有宾语从句的主从复合句，若陈述句为I／we(don’t)+think，believe，expect等表示想法、意见、猜测的动词+宾语从句，反义疑问句的谓语动词和主语应同宾语从句的谓语动词和主语保持一致。如果主句是否定式，反义疑问句要用肯定式；如果主句是肯定式，反义疑问句要用否定式。因此，本题答案为C)。

28． Tracy said the work would be done by July, ______personally I doubt very much.

A．it B．that C．when D．which

正确答案：D

解析：本题考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，逗号后应是一个which引导的非限制性定语从句，which既指代前面整个句子，同时又作后面句子中doubt的宾语，故答案为D)。

29． On weekends there are a lot of children playing in the park, ______parents

seated together joking.

A．their B．whose C．which D．that

正确答案：A

解析：本题考查独立主格结构。seat作动词时，意为“(房间、车辆、桌子等)坐得下……人，能提供给……座位”，主语为人时，句子用被动语态，因此空格后的动词seated不是谓语，而是seat这个动词的过去分词，即非谓语动词，由此可知逗号后面的成分在本句作独立主格结构，所以答案为A)。

30． Tom said in his letter that he would appreciate______from you as soon as possible.

A．to have heard B．to hear C．for hearing D．hearing

正确答案：D

解析：本题考查动名词。即appreciate doing sth．是常考用法，表示“感激做某事”，只有D)符合要求。

Section BDirections: There are also 5 incomplete statements here．You should fill in each blank with the proper form of the word given in the brackets．

31． It is(embarrass) ______to be found stealing something.

正确答案：embarrassing

解析：本题考查词形转换。在本题中，It是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式结构to be found stealing something。is是系动词，后面应该跟形容词作表语。embarrass为动词，其形容词形式有embarrassing和embarrassed两种，因主语为事件，故此处应该填入embarrassing“令人尴尬的，使人难堪的”。

32． Helen isn’t here because I forgot(telephone) ______her.

正确答案：to telephone 解析：本题考查不定式。forget后接不定式作宾语，表示“忘记要去做某事”；其后也可跟动名词，表示“忘记已经做过某事”。由主句可知，“我”忘记要给海伦打电话，故空格处应填to telephone。

33． Earthquakes often cause great(destroy) ______of life and property.

正确答案：destruction

解析：本题考查词形转换。分析句子结构可知，空格处作动词cause的宾语，因此应填入名词。destroy是动词，其名词形式是destruction。

34． By the end of last month, our factory(produce)______3 000 motors.

正确答案：had produced 解析：本题考查过去完成时。由句首的时间状语可知，句子应用过去完成时，表示到过去某个时间为止已经发生或完成的动作，故空格处应填had produced。

35． The teacher warned that anyone who was caught(cheat) ______during the test would be punished.

正确答案：cheating

解析：本题考查现在分词。在that引导的宾语从句中，又含有一个who引导的定语从句，在此定语从句中，who为主语，谓语动词为was caught，其后应接现在分词说明主语在被捉住时发生的动作，因此，空格处应填cheating。

Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.

Task 1Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice．

When people say that Cambridge is a university town, they do not mean that it is a town with a university in it. A university town is a place where there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city. The university is not just one part of the town, it is all over the town. The heart of Cambridge has its shops, restaurants, market places and so on, but most of it is university—colleges, libraries, clubs and other places for university staff and students. The town was there first. Cambridge became a center of learning in the thirteenth century. Many students were too poor to afford lodgings. Colleges were opened so that students could live cheaply. This was the beginning of the present day college system. Today there are nearly thirty colleges. Very few students can now live in college for the whole of their courses: the numbers are too great. Many of them live in lodgings at first and move into college for their final year. But every student is a member of his college from the beginning, he must eat a number of meals in the college hall each week. Students are not allowed to keep cars in Cambridge, so nearly all of them use bicycles. Don’t try to drive through Cambridge during the five minutes between lectures, as you will find crowds of people on bicycles hurrying in all directions. If you are in Cambridge during the five minutes any morning of the term, you’ll know that you are in a university town. Stop in some place, and wait.

36． Why do people call Cambridge a university town? A．Because Cambridge is as big as a town.

B．Because Cambridge is a real town with a university in it.

C．Because the university buildings are not clearly separated from the rest of the city.

D．Because Cambridge’s buildings match well with the rest of the town.

正确答案：C

解析：根据文章第一段第一、二句可知，剑桥城之所以被称为大学城是因为大学的建筑与该城市的其他部分没有明显的界线。故C)为正确答案。

37． The word “it” in “but most of it is university” refers to______. A．the rest of the town B．the university town C．the university

D．the heart of Cambridge

正确答案：B

解析：根据文章第一段最后一句可知，剑桥城的中心地区有商店、饭店和市场等，但是它的大部分是大学——学院、图书馆、俱乐部和其他一些供学校师生活动的地方。该句中的it指的是Cambridge“剑桥城”。故B)为正确答案。

38． According to the second paragraph, which of the following is NOT true? A．Cambridge has a long history.

B．The town was built earlier than Cambridge.

C．Many students lacked money, so colleges were opened.

D．It was more expensive for students to live in colleges than in lodgings.

正确答案：D

解析：根据文章第二段第一、二句可知，这个城镇先于剑桥城存在，后来到13世纪成为一个学习中心，由此推断选项A)和B)正确；由该段第三、四句可知，那时大学生贫穷，付不起住宿费，因此大学里开始有一些学院为学生提供便宜的住宿，因此C)正确，D)错误。因此本题答案为D)。

39． What is impossible for the students to do in Cambridge? A．Having all the meals outside the college each week. B．Keeping bikes in the college. C．Living in lodgings.

D．Living in college for their final year of the course.

正确答案：A

解析：根据文章第三段最后一句可知，每个学生从一入校就是学院的一员，每周都必须在学院食堂吃几顿饭。因此本题答案为A)。

40． Why do people find it hard to drive in Cambridge during the five minutes between lectures?

A．Because there are a large number of cars in the streets.

B．Because there are too many buildings in the university town.

C．Because the streams of people on bicycles are going in all directions. D．Because there is strict speed limit for the cars.

正确答案：C 解析：根据文章最后一段第二句可知，试图在课间的五分钟时间在大学城内开车很难，因为你会发现到处都是骑自行车的拥挤的人群。故C)为正确答案。

Task 2Directions：This task is the same as Task 1．The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45．

Scientists find that hard-working people live much longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that people without a steady job are in poorer health than jobholders. Why is work good for people’s health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people may feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are often those who are busy with their work. Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between men and the world around them. By work people have the chance to come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful and beneficial to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects one in spirit and emotion and is inclined to make him ill. Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words and they may have a feeling of endless satisfaction. From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work, the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.

41． Why are housewives not as healthy as career women? A．Because they are poorer than career women.

B．Because they have more children than career women. C．Because they feel lonely more easily than career women. D．Because they eat less food than career women.

正确答案：C

解析：根据文章第二段前两句可知，工作使人忙于职场，而不会感到孤独，因此使人更健康。由此确定C)为本题的答案。

42． What do we know about the high achievers? A．They have nothing to do at home. B．They don’t care about their families.

C．There is no friendship or warmth around them. D．Their satisfying jobs help them to keep healthy.

正确答案：D 解析：文章第二段第五句指出，许多取得巨大成就的人非常喜爱自己的事业，当他们努力工作的时候他们感到最快乐。第七、八、九句指出，通过工作，人们可以相互交流，通过共事，人们可以找到友谊和温情，这对于健康是有益的。由此确定D)为本题的答案。

43． What will happen to those who have lost their work? A．They are likely to be in poor health. B．They will lose everything at home.

C．They can live as long as those who work.

D．They will have more time to make new friends.

正确答案：A

解析：第二段最后两句提到，失去工作就意味着失去了一切，这会影响人的精神和情绪，往往会导致疾病的发生。简而言之，没有工作可能导致人生病，使身体健康状况变差。题干中的have lost their work是对原文中The loss of work的同义转述，A)中的are likely to be in poor health是对原文中is inclined to make him ill的同义转述。由此确定A)为本题的答案。

44． According to Paragraph 3, why does a writer feel satisfied when he finishes a writing?

A．Because he can feel his value in society. B．Because he can earn a lot of money. C．Because he may make many friends. D．Because he may have time to rest finally.

正确答案：A

解析：第三段第一、二句指出工作有利于健康的另一个原因，即工作让人有成就感，让人能够感到自己在社会中的价值和地位。然后举出三个例子进行证明，分别是：作家完成一部作品、医生成功实施手术和教师看到学生成长。由此推断，作家在完成一部作品之后感到满意是因为写作这项工作让他感受到自己在社会中的价值。由此确定A)为本题的答案。

45． The best title for this passage may be______. A．People Should Find a Job

B．Working Hard Is Good for Health

C．People Should Make More Friends by Work

D．The Loss of Work Means the Loss of Everything

正确答案：B 解析：文章介绍了工作对人们的健康起到的重要的促进作用，并且从两个方面加以论证，即工作可以让人摆脱孤独的感觉，还可以让人有成就感。由此可见，文章的主旨为努力工作对健康有益。所以，B)为本题的答案。

Task 3Directions：The following is a passage．After reading it，you are required to complete the blanks below it(No．46 through No．50)．You should write your answers briefly in no more than three words．

Today our knowledge of food and what it does for our bodies is far more advanced than that of the old times. Now we know about vitamins and how each kind of vitamin helps in the growth of a particular part of our body. There are on the market all kinds of vitamins which one can take to make up for one’s lack of certain important things that are needed for good health. Of course, if we eat well and properly, the food we eat will take care of our body and so there is no need to take any kinds of vitamins unless our doctor tells us that our bodies are short of something that can be supplied by them. Generally speaking, everything we eat does some good to our body, but if we eat too much of one kind of food and pay too little attention to others, we may have too much of one kind and not enough of others. Then we may be in trouble. We are often told that we must eat some meat at each meal in order to get the necessary proteins. That is only partly true, for proteins are not found only in meat. We can also get them from some vegetables. The best advice about what to eat is that we should eat all kinds of food but never too much for any. Eat HealthilyOur knowledge of food: 1) far more advanced 2) each kind of vitamin helps in the growth of【R1】______ of our body No need to eat vitamins: 1) if we eat【R2】______ 2) unless our doctor tells us that【R3】______ vitamins Where to find proteins: can be found in【R4】______ as well as in meat Suggestions to us: eat every kind of food but【R5】______ of one kind

46． 【B1】

正确答案：a particular part

解析：文章第一段第二句提到，现在我们了解维生素，而且知道各类维生素是怎样帮助我们身体的特定部位发育的。对照原文内容，可得出答案为a particular part。

47． 【B2】

正确答案：well and properly

解析：根据文章第一段最后一句可知，如果我们饮食得当，我们吃的食物就可以满足我们身体的需要。对照原文内容，可得出答案为well and properly。

48． 【B3】

正确答案：our bodies lack

解析：文章第一段最后一句后半部分提到，没有必要去吃任何维生素，除非医生说我们身体内缺少某种物质，需要用维生素来补充。如果填写原文中的our bodies are short of就超出三个词，不符合题目要求，所以可改写为our bodies lack。

49． 【B4】

正确答案：some vegetables

解析：文章第三段最后两句提到，这并不完全正确，因为不是只有肉中含有蛋白质，一些蔬菜中也含有蛋白质。对照原文内容，可得出答案为some vegetables。

50． 【B5】

正确答案：never too much

解析：在文章最后一段，作者对人们的饮食提出了自己的建议：我们应该吃各种食物，但每种食物都不要吃太多。对照原文内容，可得出答案为never too much。
