Passage One
Astronaut Jim Voss has enjoyed many memorable moments in his career，including three space flights and one space walk. But he recalls with special fondness a decidedly earthbound （为地球所吸引）experience in the summer of 1980，when he participated in the NASA-ASEE Summer Faculty Fellowship Program. Voss then a science teacher at West Point，was assigned to the Marshall Space Flight Center’s propulsion（推进）lab in Alabama to analyze why a hydraulic fuel pump on the space shuttle was working so well when previous seals had failed. It was a seemingly tiny problem among the vast complexities of running the space program. Yet it was important to NASA because any crack in the seal could have led to destructive results for the astronauts who relied on them.
“I worked a bit with NASA engineers，”says Voss，“but I did it mostly by analysis. I used a handheld calculator，not a computer，to do a thermodynamic（热力学的）analysis.”At the end of the summer，he，like the other NASA-ASEE fellows working at Marshall，summarized his f’indings in a formal presentation and detailed paper. It was a valuable moment for Voss because the ASEE program gave him added understanding of NASA，deepened his desire to fly in space，and intensified his application for astronaut status.
It was not an easy process. Voss was actually passed over when he first applied for the astronaut program in 1978. Over the next nine years he reapplied repeatedly，and was finally accepted in 1987. Since then he has participated in three space mission. The 50-year-old Army officer，who fives in Huston，is now in training for a four-month mission as a crew member on the International Space Station starting in July 2000.
Voss says the ASEE program is wonderful for all involved.“It brings in people from the academic world and gives NASA a special property for a particular period of time. It brings some fresh eyes and fresh ideas to NASA，and establishes a link with our colleges and universities，”Voss explains，“There’s an exchange of information and an exchange of perspectives that is very important.”
For the academic side，Voss says，the ASEE program also“brings institutions of higher learning more insight into new technology. We give them an opportunity to work on real-world problems and take it back to the classroom.”
36. Why was the hydraulic fuel pump seal important for the space shuttle？
A. Because previous seals all failed.
B. Because it was very complex in running the space program.
C. Because great care has to be taken of the hydraulic fuel pump sealing.
D. Because any crack in the seals would cause disastrous results for the astronauts.
37. The great significance of Voss’s findings lies in .
Ⅰ. strengthening his determination to join in space flights
Ⅱ. furthering his understanding of NASA
Ⅲ. consolidating his astronaut status in NASA programs
A. Ⅰ only. B. Ⅱ only.
C. Ⅰ，Ⅱ and Ⅲ all included. D. Ⅰ and Ⅱ only.
38. How many flights will Voss have finished if his Four-month mission starting in July 2000 ends up successfully？
A. Three. B. Two. C. Four. D. Five.
39. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to what Voss said on the ASEE program？
A. Fresh members from the academic world participate in the program.
B. The program brings new outlooks to NASA space programs.
C. It is important for the space scientists to exchange information and perspectives.
D. American colleges and universities are a special property of NASA.
40. What does Voss want to stress in the last paragraph？
A. The technological significance of the program.
B. The educational significance of the program.
C. The philosophical significance of the program.
D. The historical significance of the program.
Passage Two
The current emergency in
As parents，what terrorizes us most are reports that children are at higher risk because they breathe more times per minute. What more can we do to protect them and ourselves？Our pediatrician’s（儿科医师的）medical recommendation was simple：abandon the city permanently. We are foreigners and we are among the small minority that can afford to leave. We are here because of my husband’s work. We are fascinated by Mexico—its history and rich culture. We know that for us，this is a temporary danger. However，we cannot stand for much longer the fear we feel for our boys. We cannot stop them from breathing.
But for millions，there is no choice. Their lives，their jobs，their futures depend on being here. Thousands of Mexicans arrive each day in this city，desperate for economic opportunities. Thousands more are born here each day. Entire families work in the streets and practically live there. It is a familiar sight：as parents hawk goods at stoplights，their children play in the grassy highway dividers，breathing exhaust fumes. I feel guilty complaining about my personal situation；we won’t be here long enough for our children to form the impression that skies are colored only gray.
And yet the government cannot do what it must to end this problem. For any country，especially a developing Third World economy like Mexico’s，the idea of barring from the capital city enough cars，closing enough factories and spending the necessary billions on public transportation is simply not an option. So when things get bad，as in the current emergency，Mexico takes half measures—prohibiting some more cars from circulating，stopping some factories from producing—that even its own officials concede aren’t adequate.
The word “emergency” implies the unusual. But when daily life itself is an emergency，the concept loses its meaning. It is human nature to try to adapt to that which we cannot change. Or to mislead ourselves into believing we can adapt.
41. According to the passage，the current emergency in Mexico City refers to .
A. serious air pollution B. economic crisis
C. unemployment D. natural disaster
42. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage？

C. The author’s husband is a pediatrician.

43. The word“hawk”（Paragraph 3）most probably means .
A. sell B. transport C. place D. deliver
44. The Mexican government takes half measures to solve the pollution problem because .
A. Mexican economy depends very much on cars and factories
B. it is not wise enough to come up with effective measures
C. Mexicans are able to adapt themselves to the current emergency
D. Mexicans enjoy playing dangerous games with their health
45. The purpose of the passage is to .
A describe the harmful air pollution
B. explain the way to prevent air pollution
C. show the worries about the air pollution
D. recommend a method to avoid air pollution
Passage Three
In 1998 consumers could purchase virtually anything over the Internet. Books，compact discs，and even stocks were available from World Wide Web sites that seemed to spring up almost daily. A few years earlier，some people had predicted that consumers accustomed to shopping in stores would be reluctant to buy things that they could not see or touch in person. For a growing number of time-starved consumers，however，shopping from their home computer was proving to be a convenient alternative to driving to the store.
A research estimated that in 1998 US consumers would purchase $ 7.3 billion of goods over the Internet，double the 1997 total. Finding a bargain was getting easier owing to the rise of online auctions and Web sites that did comparison shopping on the Internet for the best deal.
For all the consumer interest，retailing in cyberspace was still a largely unprofitable business，however. Internet pioneer Amazon.Com，which began selling books in 1995 and later branched into recorded music and videos，posted revenue of $ 153.7 million in the third quarter，up from $ 37.9 million in the same period of 1997. Overall，however，the company’s loss widened to $ 45.2 million from $ 9.6 million，and analysis did not expect the company to turn a profit until 2001. Despite the great loss，Amazon.Com had a stock market value of many billion，reflecting investors’ optimism about the future of the industry.
Internet retailing appealed to investors because it provided an efficient means for reaching millions of consumers without having the cost of operating conventional stores with their armies of salespeople. Selling online carried its own risks，however. With so many companies competing for consumers’ attention，price competition was intense and profit margins thin or nonexistent. One video retailer sold the hit movie Titanic for $ 9.99，undercutting（削价）the $ 19.99 suggested retail price and losing about $ 6 on each copy sold. With Internet retailing still in its initial stage，companies seemed willing to absorb such losses in an attempt to establish a dominant market position.
46. Which of the following is TRUE，according to the writer？
A. Consumers are reluctant to buy things on the Internet.
B. Consumers are too busy to buy things on the Internet.
C. Internet retailing is a profitable business.
D. More and more consumers prefer Internet shopping.
47. Finding a bargain on the Internet was getting easier partly because .
A. there were more and more Internet users
B. there were more and more online auctions
C. the consumers had more money to spend
D. there were more goods available on the Internet
48. “For all the consumer interest”（Paragraph 3）means .
A. to the interest of all the consumers
B. for the interest of all the consumers
C. though consumers are very much interested
D. all the consumers are much interested
49. It can be inferred from the passage that Amazon. Com .
A. will probably make a profit in 2001
B. is making a profit now
C. is a company that sells books only
D. suffers a great loss on the stock market
50. Investors are interested in Internet retailing because .
A. selling online involves little risk
B. Internet retailing is in its initial stage
C. it can easily reach millions of consumers
D. they can make huge profits from it
Passage Four
It is all very well to blame traffic jams，the cost of petrol and the quick pace of modern life，but manners on the roads are becoming horrible. You might tolerate the rude and inconsiderate driver，but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule. Perhaps the situation calls for a“Be Kind to Other Drivers”campaign，otherwise，it may get completely out of hand.
Road politeness is not only good manners，but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed and good-tempered of drivers to resist the temptation to revenge when subjected to uncivilized behaviors. On the other hand，a little politeness goes a long way towards relieving the tensions of motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement in response to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of goodwill and tolerance so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of politeness are all too rare today. Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However，improper politeness can also be dangerous. A typical example is the driver who waves a child across a crossing into the path of oncoming vehicles that may be unable to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they care to.
A veteran driver，whose manners are faultless，told me it would help if motorists learn to filter correctly into traffic streams without causing the total blockages（堵塞）that give rise to bad temper. Unfortunately，modern motorists can’t even learn to drive，let alone be well-mannered on the road. Years ago the experts warned us that the car-ownership explosion would demand a lot more give-and-take from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
51. According to this passage，troubles on the road are primarily caused by .
A. people’s attitude towards drivers
B. the rhythm of modern life
C. traffic conditions
D. the behavior of the driver
52. The sentence“You might tolerate the rude and inconsiderate driver，but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule”implies that .
A. our society is unjust towards well-mannered motorists
B. rude drivers can be met only occasionally
C. nowadays impolite drivers constitute the majority of motorists
D. the well-mannered motorist cannot tolerate the rude driver
53. By“good sense”（Paragraph 2），the writer means .
A. the driver’s prompt response to difficult conditions
B. the driver’s ability to understand and react reasonably
C. the driver’s tolerance of bad road conditions
D. the driver’s acknowledgement of politeness and regulations
54. Experts have long pointed out that in the face of car-ownership explosion， .
A. drivers should be ready to yield to one another
B. road users should make more sacrifices
C. drivers should have more communication among themselves
D. drivers will suffer a great loss if they pay no respect to others
55. In the writer’s opinion .
A. drivers should apply road politeness properly
B. strict traffic regulations are badly needed
C. rude and inconsiderate drivers should be punished
D. drivers should try their best to avoid traffic jams
Passage Five
The most noticeable trend among today’s media companies is vertical integration—an attempt to control several related aspects of the media business at once，each part helping the other. Besides publishing magazines and books，Time Warner，for example，owns Home Box Office（HBO），Warner movie studios，various cable TV systems throughout the United States and CNN as well. The Japanese company Matsushita owns MCA Records and Universal Studios and manufactures broadcast production equipment.
To describe the financial status of today’s media is also to talk about acquisitions. The media are buying and selling each other in unprecedented numbers and forming media groups to position themselves in the marketplace to maintain and increase their profits. In 1986，the first time a broadcast network had been sold，two networks were sold that year—ABC and NBC.
Media acquisitions have skyrocketed since 1980 for two reasons. The first is that most big corporations today are publicly traded companies，which means that their stock is traded on one of the nation’s stock exchanges. This makes acquisitions relatively easy.
A media company that wants to buy a publicly owned company can buy that company’s stock when the stock becomes available. The open availability of stock in these companies means that anybody with enough money can invest in the American media industries，which is exactly how Rupert Murdoch joined the media business.
The second reason for the increase in media alliances is that beginning in 1980，the Federal Communications Commission（FCC）gradually deregulated the broadcast media. Before 1980，for example，the FCC allowed one company to own only five TV stations，five AM radio stations，and five FM radio stations；companies also were required to hold onto a station for three years before the station could be sold. The post-1980 FCC eliminated the three-year rule and raised the number of broadcast holdings allowed for one owner. This trend of media acquisitions is continuing throughout the 1990s，as changing technology expands the market for media products.
The issue of media ownership is important. If only a few corporations direct the media industries in this country，the outlets for differing political viewpoints and innovative ideas could be limited.
56. What do Time Warner and Matsushita have in common？
A. They both belong to Rupert Murdoch.
B. They are both big American media corporations.
C. They are both outlets of differing viewpoints and innovative ideas.
D. They both own several different but related media businesses.
57. Which of the following is true of the media？
A. They used to sell and buy each other in great numbers.
B. They are trading each other in greater numbers today.
C. They used to be controlled by two networks—ABC and NBC.
D. They have stopped the trend of acquisitions in the 1990s.
58. According to the passage，what makes acquisitions easier？
A. The changing technology employed by the media.
B. The media’s increasing profits in the marketplace.
C. The ever tougher regulations of the FCC on the media since 1980.
D. The availability of the media’s stocks on stock exchanges.
59. What is the FCC’s new policy regarding media alliances？
A. It allows companies to sell their stocks publicly.
B. It doesn’t allow companies to sell their stocks publicly.
C. It permits one company to own more media businesses at the same time.
D. It has eliminated all post-1980 companies.
60. The issue of media ownership is important because .
A. it affects the amount of money the stockholders will make
B. it decides whether we can have different aspects of the media
C. it concerns the channels through which to express opinions
D. it means that more and more people will hold onto only a few stations
Passage Six
In the 1997 general-election campaign，“Education，Education”was Tony Blair’s pet phrase. Times change quickly. Education is going rapidly out of fashion.“Learning”（to be exact，“lifelong learning”）is New Labour’s new buzzword（时髦语）. The shift from“education”to“learning”reflects more than a change of language. It stems from both educational research and left-wing ideas. During the 1980s，British educationalists got some new American ideas. One was the notion that traditional examinations do not test the full range of people’s abilities. Another was the belief that skills are not necessarily learned from teachers in a conventional classroom. People can pick them up in all sorts of ways.
All this echoed left-wing ideas that traditional teaching methods were not sufficiently adaptable to the needs of individual learners. Advocates of lifelong learning argue that it merely describes what has changed in education in the past decade. And there are now hundreds of schemes in which pupils learn outside the classroom.
Until now，education has been changing from below. In the next few weeks，the government will help from above. One of its main projects for lifelong learning is about to begin its first pilot programmers. With funding of $ 44 million in its first year，it will coordinate a new network of “learning centers”throughout the country. Traditional institutions，such as schools and colleges，will provide training at some non-traditional places of learning，such as supermarkets，pubs，and churches. The theory is that in such places students will feel more at ease，and therefore will be better motivated，than in a classroom.
The new schemes allow consumers of education to exercise complete choice over where，what and when they learn. In the rest of the state-run education sectors（部门），the gover-nment still seems to be committed to restricting choices as much as possible. If these programs succeed，they could improve the skills of Britain’s workforce.
61. According to the writer，the shift from“education”to“learning” .
A. is but a change of language
B. reflects the traditional ideas in education
C. reflects the government’s wish to restrict choices
D. is not just a change of language
62. All the following statements are true EXCEPT that .
A. pupils can learn skills outside the classroom
B. students will be better motivated in a classroom
C. the new schemes are intended to improve the skills of
D. traditional teaching methods cannot satisfy the needs of individual learners
63. It can be inferred from the passage that the new projects .
A. are started from below
B. have begun in the past decade
C. will allow students to have complete control over their learning
D. will be carried out in the traditional institutions
64. In the second paragraph，the writer suggests that .
A. traditional exams can test the full range of people’s abilities
B. there are other ways for pupils to learn skills
C. pupils can learn little from teachers in a conventional classroom
D. the notion of lifelong learning is only the result of educational research
65. According to this passage，the New Labour’s government .
A. will set up many“learning centers”in
B. has not changed its educational policy
C. will continue to restrict choices in all the state-run education sectors
D. is reluctant to make large investments in education
Part Ⅳ Cloze（15 minutes，10 points）
Directions：In this part，there is a passage with twenty blanks. For each blank there are four choices marked A，B，C and D. Choose for each blank and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.
Most worthwhile careers require some kind of specialized training. Ideally，therefore，the choice of an 66 should be made even before the choice of a curriculum in high school. Actually， 67 ，most people make several job choices during their working lives， 68 because of economic and industrial changes and partly to improve 69 position. The“one perfect job”does not exist. Young people should 70 enter into a broad flexible training program that will 71 them for a field of work rather than for a single 72 .
Unfortunately，many young people have to make career plans 73 benefit of help from a competent vocational counselor or psychologist. Knowing 74 about the occupational world，or themselves for that matter，they choose their lifework on a hit-or-miss 75 . Some drift from job to job. Others 76 to work in which they are unhappy and for which they are not fitted.
One common mistake is choosing an occupation for 77 real or imagined prestige. Too many high-school students—or their parents for them—choose the professional field， 78 both the relatively small proportion of workers in the professions and the extremely high educational and personal 79 . The imagined or real prestige of a profession or a“White-collar”job is 80 good reason for choosing it as life’s work. 81 ，these occupations are not always well paid. Since a large proportion of jobs are in mechanical and manual work，the 82 of young people should give serious 83 to these fields.
Before making an occupational choice，a person should have a general idea of what he wants 84 life and how hard he is willing to work to get it. Some people desire social prestige，others intellectual satisfaction. Some want security，others are willing to take 85 for financial gain. Each occupational choice has its demands as well as its rewards.
66. A. identification B. entertainment C. accommodation D. occupation
67. A. however B. therefore C. though D. thereby
68. A. entirely B. mainly C. partly D. his
69. A. its B. his C. our D. their
70. A. since B. therefore C. furthermore D. forever
71. A. make B. fit C. take D. leave
72. A. job B. way C. means D. company
73. A. to B. for C. without D. with
74. A. little B. few C. much D. a lot
75. A. chance B. basis C. purpose D. opportunity
76. A. apply B. appeal C. stick D. turn
77. A. our B. its C. your D. their
78. A. concerning B. following C. considering D. disregarding
79. A. preferences B. requirements C. tendencies D. ambitions
80. A. a B. any C. no D. the
81. A. Therefore B. However C. Nevertheless D. Moreover
82. A. majority B. mass C. minority D. multitude
83. A. proposal B. suggestion C. consideration D. appraisal
84. A. towards B. against C. out of D. without
85. A. turns B. parts C. choices D. risks

【考点剖析】decorated“装饰”；illustrated“用例子说明，阐明”；lit up“照亮，使发亮”；studied carefully“认真研究”。前面提到是在晚上，所以C最符合题意。
24. 【正确答案】C
【句子翻译】好的雇主通常能给他的雇员一些暗示但同时又不影响他们的创造力。
【考点类型】反义复现
【考点剖析】freedom“自由”；assistance“协助，帮助”；clues“线索”；funds“资金”。通过without可以推断前后表示两个相反的意思，C项符合。
25. 【正确答案】B
【句子翻译】当建筑物的顶部在冬天堆满积雪时，其重量有时会损害建筑物，在某些情况下还会引起房顶的坍塌。
【考点类型】因果关系，前者导致后者
【考点剖析】melts“融化”；accumulates“积累”；selects“选择”；scatters“分散，散开”。需要联系后半句的意思来推测collect的意思，显然可知其是堆积的意思，B项意思相近。
Section B
26. 【正确答案】B
【句子翻译】自最初于
【考点类型】修饰共现
【考点剖析】这里横线所填的词应当要修饰campus movement，根据意思，movement是由学生领导的，故应该用lead的过去分词形式。故选B。
27. 【正确答案】C
【句子翻译】吴教授走遍全国各地进行讲演，以此来倡导教育和职业技能，从而使妇女能够进入公众世界。
【考点类型】语义场共现
【考点剖析】prosecute“起诉，告发”；acquire“获得，学到”；advocate“提倡，倡导”；proclaim“宣布，申明”。这里to 后面所接的部分作为动词不定式表示目的，与前面的动词travel和 lecture相对应，从中可以推测横线上所填的词只有C项最符合。
28. 【正确答案】B
【句子翻译】原则上讲，一个精神失常的人的所作所为可以免受刑事处罚。
【考点类型】语义场共现
【考点剖析】identification“辨认，鉴别”；punishment“惩罚，处罚”；investigation“调查”；commitment“许诺，承诺，义务”。be liable to sth. 是一个常用词组，意为“对某事负有责任”这里根据常理推测，可知是不受刑事处罚，A、C、D与原意都相去甚远。
29. 【正确答案】D
【句子翻译】国家旅游局的一个主要目标就是在世纪之交时吸引更多的人到该国旅游。
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】 reduce“减少”；expect“期待，预期”；arouse“激起，唤起”；induce“劝诱”。reduce的意思明显不符，expect只表示了一种心理活动，而不是一个实际的动作，显然国家旅游局必须要采取行动而不能只在心理期望，arouse虽然意思也比较符合题意，但arouse通常是指通过比较煽情的手段吸引，这里应该用一个比较中性化的词，故选D。
30. 【正确答案】A
【句子翻译】钢是一种合金，主要由铁和碳合成。
【考点类型】修饰共现
【考点剖析】primarily“主要地”；traditionally“传统上地”；carefully“小心地，谨慎地”；partially“部分地”。这里横线处所选的应该是一个副词，用来修饰composed，显然A项比较符合句意。

Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension
Passage One
宇航员吉姆·沃斯的太空事业中有很多难忘的时刻，包括三次太空飞行和一次太空行走。但是，在他记忆中，让他尤其高兴的是1980年夏天的那次被地球引力所吸引的经历。那时他参加了NASA-ASEE组织的夏季技能协作项目。沃斯那时是西点军校的一名科学教师，他被分配到位于阿拉巴马州的马歇尔太空飞行中心的推进器实验室，去分析为什么当之前的密封垫无法正常工作时，航天飞机上的液压燃料的密封垫却工作得如此顺利。看上去，这对于运转一项庞大而复杂的太空计划工作是个很小的问题。但是，对于美国航空与宇航局来说却十分重要，因为密封垫上的任何裂缝都可能给依赖它们的宇航员带来灾难性的后果。
“我与NASA的工程师们有过一些合作，”沃斯说，“但是，我主要通过分析工作。我使用手提计算器而不是电脑进行热力学分析。”那个夏末，他同一起在马歇尔工作的其他NASA-ASEE的同事们，以正式的报告和详细的论文总结了他的发现。对于沃斯来说，这是一个很有意义的时刻，因为ASEE计划使他对NASA有了更多的了解，加深了他想到太空飞行的愿望，让他更想申请当一名宇航员。
这不是个简单的过程。1978年当沃斯第一次申请参加宇航计划时，他的申请表被置之不理。接下来的九年里，他反复申请，到1987年时终于被接受了。从那时起，他已经参与了三次太空任务。这位50岁的军官居住在休斯敦，现在正在接受训练，他将作为国际空间站的一名成员执行一个开始时间为2000年7月，为期四个月的任务。
沃斯说，ASEE计划对于所有参与的人来说都是非常棒的。“在一个特定的时期，该计划引进了学术界的人士，这给NASA带来了一笔特殊的财富。它给NASA带来了一些新观念和新思想，使得NASA与大专院校建立了联系，”沃斯解释说，“这使他们之间可以进行重要的信息和观点的交流。”
沃斯说，对于学术界来说，ASEE计划也使高等学府对新技术有了更多的了解，我们为他们提供了解决现实问题的机会，并将这个机会带回到课堂。
36. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】细节判断
【解析过程】液压燃料的密封垫对于太空飞船非常重要是因为什么？
A. 早期的密封全都失效了。
B. 因为运行太空项目是非常复杂的。
C. 因为人们对于液压燃料的密封垫非常关注。
D. 因为任何液压燃料的密封垫的破坏都会给宇航员带来致命的灾难。
线索：文章的第1段提到“Yet it was important to NASA because any crack in the seal could have led to destructive results for the astronauts who relied on them.”表明答案D为正确选项。选项A和B在原文的第1段都提到了，但和题干没有直接的因果关系，属于所问非所答。而选项D在原文中也是没有提到的。
【考点提示】解答任何问题都必须能够找到原文的线索词，可以从两个方面入手：①从文章的结构入手，在读文章的时候就关注一些关键词，如yet，but，however等相关的词；②从问题的题干入手，抓住关键词返回原文寻找关键的信息线索。
37. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】段落综合判断
【解析过程】沃斯发现的重要意义在于 。
Ⅰ. 加强了他决心参加到太空的航行
Ⅱ. 加强他对于NASA的理解
Ⅲ. 稳固了他在NASA项目中宇航员的地位
A. 仅仅Ⅰ正确 B. 仅仅Ⅱ正确
C.Ⅰ，Ⅱ，Ⅲ全都正确 D.Ⅰ，Ⅱ全都正确
线索：文章的第2段提到“It was a valuable moment for Voss because the ASEE program gave him added understanding of NASA，deepened his desire to fly in space，and intensified his application for astronaut status.“表明选项D是正确答案。选项Ⅲ和原文中的信息“让他更想申请当名宇航员”不符合。
【考点提示】解答细节题必须拿选项和原文的信息进行对照，基本上出题老师都是对原文的信息进行改写，同义词替换或句型替换，所以建议同学们在翻译部分要加强学习句子结构之间相互转换的能力，比如：被动句和主动句的转换，双重否定句到肯定句的转换等。
38. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】数字计算
【解析过程】如果沃斯2000年7月开始的为期4个月任务最终取得成功，他就将已经完成多少次的飞行任务？
A. 3次 B. 2次 C. 4次 D. 5次
线索：文章的第3段提到“Since then he has participated in three space mission.”和2000年7月的任务相加得出正确答案C。
【考点提示】数字计算题相对来讲是比较容易的一种题型，要求同学们在理解原文具体细节的基础之上进行简单的运算，一般是加减法运算。错误选项的设计往往是把原文有的数字直接提出来，迷惑大家。
39. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】细节判断
【解析过程】根据沃斯在ASEE项目中说的，下面哪句话是错误的？
A. 来自于学术领域的新成员参加该项目。
B. 项目将给NASA太空项目带来新的前景。
C. 交流信息的观点对于太空科学家非常重要。
D. 美国学院和大学是NASA的一个特殊财产。
线索：文章的第4段提到“It brings in people from the academic world and gives NASA a special property for a particular period of time.”表明仅仅是在一段时间内，该项目给NASA提供了一个特殊的财产（美国学术界），所以选项D是对原文信息的扩大化，或者把原文的信息绝对化了。
【考点提示】根据题目的顺序和原文的段落对应，然后再进行对照，选择出正确答案。还是上边提到的，出题的老师就是利用同义词替换等一些方法迷惑同学们，这其实是阅读的一个基本功。另外，有的选项比较绝对化而且不符合常识，那么该选项就不会是正确答案。
40. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】主旨推论
【解析过程】沃斯在最后一段强调的是什么？
A. 项目的技术重要性。 B. 项目的教育重要性。
C. 项目的哲学意义上的重要作用。 D. 项目的历史意义。
线索：文章的第5段提到“brings institutions of higher learning more insight into new technology. We give them an opportunity to work on real-world problems and take it back to the classroom.”表明选项B是正确答案。其他几个选项是原文没有提到的。D选项比较具有迷惑性，从常识讲“历史意义”可能是对的，但文章没有提到，所以是不正确的。
【考点提示】紧扣原文的信息对比、审查、判断，才能最终保证得出正确的答案。而且，要注意看似正确的选项，原文没有提到是一定不可以选择的，正确答案必须有它的出处。
Passage Two
墨西哥城现在的应急措施对我们的生命没有任何用处。我可以为我或我的孩子设想。我们正生活在一场环境危机中，空气污染空前严重。在这里生活的真正意义是拿你的健康进行危险的游戏。
作为父母，最使我们感到恐惧的是关于孩子们处于更高的危险中，因为据报道他们每分钟的呼吸次数比以前更多。为了保护他们和我们自己，我们可以做些什么呢？我们的儿科医师对我们的建议非常简单：永远离开这个城市。我们是外国人，只是少数可以支付得起离开费用的人中的一员。我们住在这里是因为我丈夫的工作。我们着迷于墨西哥的历史和丰富多彩的文化。我们知道，对于我们来说，这只是暂时的危险。然而，我们再也不能忍受我们对孩子的担心。我们不能阻止他们呼吸。
但是，对于数百万的人来说，他们却没有选择。他们的生活、工作、未来都依赖于生活在这里。每天，有数千的墨西哥人来到这座城市，迫切地寻找发财的机会。每天，上万的人在这里诞生。全家人在马路上工作，事实上，他们就住在那里。这是很熟悉的一幕：父母在交通指示灯下卖东西时，他们的孩子就在长满草的马路隔离带上玩耍，呼吸着车辆排出的尾气。我对抱怨自己的个人处境有一种罪恶感；我们不会在这里待得太久，为了不让我们的孩子形成这样的印象：这里的天空只有灰色。
可是，政府还没有做它必须做的事情来解决这样的问题。对于任何一个国家来说，尤其像墨西哥这样一个发展中的第三世界国家，控制首都城市的汽车数量、关闭足够多的工厂以及在公共交通上投资数亿必需的费用这样的想法完全不是一种可能的选择。所以当情况变严重时，正如应急措施所表现的那样，墨西哥城采取折中办法——禁止更多的车辆运行，让一些工厂停产，就连该市的官方都承认：这些措施不够。
“紧急时刻”暗指“非同寻常”。但是，当日常生活本身就成为紧急时刻时，这个概念就失去了意义。是人性试图适应那些我们改变不了的东西，或是人性试图误导自己，使我们相信我们能够适应。
41. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】主旨判断
【解析过程】根据文章，目前墨西哥城市的紧急情况指的是 。
A. 严重的空气污染 B. 经济危机
C. 失业 D. 自然灾难
线索：文章的第1段提到“We are living in an environmental crisis，an air-pollution emergency of unprecedented severity. What it really means is that just to breathe here is to play a dangerous game with your health.”表明选项A是正确答案。其他选项为干扰项。
【考点提示】问题解决型文章的首段一般都会明确提出一个问题，社会问题或自然问题。关键词一般为：problem，matter，concern，issue danger，pollution，accident 等。大家看到这类词汇的时候，应该警觉这篇文章是问题解决型文章，考点在于该问题是什么和问题产生的原因（because，reason，for）和解决办法的评价。
42. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】细节题
【解析过程】根据文章下面哪句话是错的？
A. 在墨西哥小孩们要比成年人更加危险。
B. 作者并不是一个本地的墨西哥人。
C. 作者的丈夫是一个小儿科医生。
D. 墨西哥的历史和文化吸引作者。
线索1：文章的第2段提到“Our pediatrician’s（儿科医师的）medical recommendation was simple：abandon the city permanently.”
线索2：文章的第2段提到“We are here because of my husband’s work.”作者在原文提到儿科医师，也提到了她丈夫的工作，但并没有说她的丈夫是一名儿科医师，所以是对原文信息关系的错误联想。其他三个选项在原文的第2段都有明确的提到。
【考点提示】同学们在做同等学力考试阅读试题的时候，一定要注意：阅读文章的难度和题目设计的难度一般成反比，文章越难，题目就越简单，相反如此。解题的时候要注意题目中的混淆选项，最常用的一种出题技巧就是把原文中都明确提到的信息在选项中给你错误的联系，就像该题的C选项，迷惑性特别大。大家一定要警惕。
43. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】词汇推理
【解析过程】单词“hawk”（第3段）的含义是 。
A. 销售 B. 运输 C. 放置 D. 传递
线索：文章的第3段提到“Entire families work in the streets and practically live there.It is a familiar sight：as parents hawk goods at stoplights，their children play in the grassy highway dividers，”解释hawk的含义，要根据前后词的含义来判断，hawk 后面是商品，那么它的含义有可能是什么呢？在根据前文提到的整个家庭工作在街上并生活在那里，父母“hawk”商品在路灯下，孩子们在旁边玩耍……，综合判断A“销售”的含义可能性最大。B选项表示“运输”不太可能，一般该词指的是港口的货物运送。
【考点提示】词汇推理其实就是从文章的上下文的含义判断该词在本文的意思。方法主要是：①搜索法：把搜出的结果和选项对比一下。②代入法：当搜索不出来时把选项分别代入原文，看看哪一个通，那么就是哪个。
44. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】因果细节
【解析过程】墨西哥政府采取一半的措施去解决环境污染的问题，因为 。
A. 墨西哥经济很大程度上依靠汽车和工厂
B. 提出全部的有效措施并不非常明智
C. 墨西哥人是可以适应目前的紧急情况
D. 墨西哥人喜欢用他们的健康开玩笑
线索1：文章的第4段提到“And yet the government cannot do what it must to end this problem.”
线索2：文章的第4段提到“For any country，especially a developing Third World economy like Mexico’s，...is simply not an option.”
线索1和线索2表明很清楚，为了解决该问题政府不能实施它们必须实施的全部措施，就是因为经济依赖性的原因。
【考点提示】选项D一眼看去不太可能是正确的答案。因为这和常识完全不符合，任何一个国家的人民也不可能拿他们的健康开玩笑。
45. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】主旨判断
【解析过程】文章的目的是 。
A. 描写了严重的空气污染 B. 解释了阻止空气污染的方法
C. 表示了作者对于空气污染的担心 D. 推荐一个办法避免空气污染
根据整个文章的内容来看，作者是要强调墨西哥空气污染非常严重，目的是表达作者的担心。A选项可以说是文章主要说的内容，是问题，但不是作者的目的。作者是想引起人们对于该问题的关注。
【考点提示】问题解决型的文章主旨一般是该问题，但文章作者的目的一般是为了表达作者对该问题的关注，这是一个规律。
Passage Three
1998年，消费者实际上可以通过因特网购买任何东西。书、压缩光盘甚至股票都可以从万维网的网站上购买，这些网站似乎每天都在增加。几年前，有些人就预测：习惯了在商场购物的消费者对于这种他们不能亲自看到或接触到的购买方式会犹豫。然而，对越来越多的缺少时间的消费者来说，与开车到商场购物相比，在家通过电脑购物是个方便的选择。
一项调查估计：1998年，美国的消费者将通过因特网支付73亿美元购买物品，是1997年总额的两倍。消费者更容易找到便宜货了，因为在线拍卖活动的增加和那些为了最满意的交易而在因特网上进行购物比较的网址的增加。
尽管消费者感兴趣，但是，网络空间的零售仍然是一个无利可图的行业。因特网的先驱Amazon.Com，1995年开始销售书籍，后来发展成销售录音带和录像带，第三季度公布的收入为1.537亿美元，比1997年同期的3790万亿美元有所上涨。但是，总体来说，公司的亏损从960万美元扩大到4520万美元；分析报告显示公司到2001年才会转为赢利。尽管有很大的亏损，但Amazon．Com仍拥有数十亿美元股票市场价值，反映了投资者对该行业的未来持乐观的态度。
因特网零售能够吸引投资者，是因为它能够提供这样一个有效的方式，不用花费金钱雇用大量销售人员经营传统的商店就可以接触到数百万消费者，不过，网上销售也有其自身的风险。如此多的公司为了吸引消费者的注意力而竞争，所以价格竞争相当激烈，利润很薄或者根本没有利润。一名影像零售商卖出的畅销影片 《泰坦尼克》 的价格是9.99美元，削减了19.99美元的建议零售价，每售出一盘录像带就损失大约6美元。由于因特网零售还处于初期阶段，公司似乎愿意忽略这样的亏损，试图占领市场的主导地位。
46. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】细节判断
【解析过程】根据文章，下面哪句话是正确的？
A. 消费者们不情愿在互联网上购买商品。
B. 消费者们太忙而没时间在互联网上购买商品。
C. 互联网零售是有利润的行业。
D. 越来越多的消费者更喜欢互联网购物。
线索：文章的第1段提到“In 1998 consumers could purchase virtually anything over the Internet.”说明选项D是正确答案。A和B选项和原文第1段的内容相反。C选项和原文的第3段“For all the consumer interest，retailing in cyberspace was still a largely unprofitable business，however.”相反。
【考点提示】“混、偏、反、无”能够比较清楚地勾画出命题老师在设计混淆选项时的几个出发点：“反”指的就是和原文的内容相反；“混”把原文信息间的逻辑关系搞混乱；“偏”只说出原文内容的一部分；“无”符合常识，但原文没有提到。
47. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】因果关系
【解析过程】在互联网上寻找便宜的商品越来越容易，部分是因为 。
A. 有越来越多的网络使用者
B. 有越来越多的在线拍卖
C. 消费者有更多的钱可以花费
D. 互联网上有更多的商品销售
线索：文章的第2段提到“Finding a bargain was getting easier owing to the rise of online auctions and Web sites that did comparison shopping on the Internet for the best deal.”表明选项B是正确答案。选项A和D，使用网络的人和网络商品的增加也许是它的原因，但文章是没有提到的，所以不正确。
【考点提示】因果关系题的解题关键其实是在线索连接词的寻找，比如：because，for，since，as；result，cause，reason；lead to，result from，owe...to，attribute...to；等等，同学们在读文章的时候，一定要特别关注这些单词。
48. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】句子理解
【解析过程】“For all the consumer interest”的含义是 。
A. 给予所有消费者的利益 B. 为了所有消费者的利益
C. 尽管消费者都感兴趣 D. 所有的消费者都感兴趣
线索：文章的第3段提到“For all the consumer interest，retailing in cyberspace was still a largely unprofitable business，however.”表明选项C是正确答案。解题的关键有两点：①不能单独根据该句子的表面含义理解，要从文章的上下文入手；②关注该句的两个关键连接词，for all表示尽管，still 表示转折的含义。
【考点提示】句子理解题 ：①返回原文找到原句。②对原句进行语法和词义的精确分析，应该重点抓原句的含义。若该句的逻辑含义不能确定，则依据上下文进行判断。注意：局部含义是由整体决定的。③一般来说，选项中的正确答案与原句意思完全相同，只不过用其他英语词汇换种表达而已。④句子理解题的错误选项干扰项特征：推得过远。做题时应把握住推的度。
49. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】段落推论
【解析过程】从这篇文章可以推论出亚马逊网站 。
A. 将有可能在2001年赢利 B. 正在赢利
C. 仅仅是一家销售图书的公司 D. 在股票市场遭遇大的损失
线索：文章的第3段提到“...and analysis did not expect the company to turn a profit until 2001.”表明正确选项为A。B和原文相反。C选项犯了绝对化的错误，而且和原文不符合。D选项和原文相反。
【考点提示】这道题其实是一道举例作用题，文章的第3段首先说了目前的网络零售是不赚钱的，然后提到了亚马逊网站，那不就是用该网站的例子来说明作者的观点吗？所以答案选择A。
50. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】因果关系
【解析过程】投资者对于互联网零售非常感兴趣因为 。
A. 在线销售基本上没有什么危险 B. 网上零售是在最初的阶段
C. 它能容易地接触到百万的客户 D. 他们能够赚很大的利润
线索：文章的第4段提到“Internet retailing appealed to investors because it provided an efficient means for reaching millions of consumers without having the cost of operating conventional stores with their armies of salespeople.”表明选项C是正确答案。A选项和原文相反。B选项原文提到了，但和题干无任何关系。
Passage Four
指责交通堵塞、油价过高以及现代生活的快节奏是无可厚非的，但是路上的礼节问题正变得让人恐怖。你或许能容忍司机的粗鲁和冷漠，但如今，行为规范的司机反而不遵守规则。也许，这种情况需要进行一场“善待其他司机”的运动，否则，形势可能会完全失控。
路上有礼节不仅指好的礼节，而且还指好的意识。当遭遇到不文明的行为时，只有最冷静、最好脾气的司机能够抵制报复对方的念头。另外，一点点礼貌对于缓解开车紧张有很大帮助。对于礼貌行为的回报，友好的点头或感谢的致意有助于营造善意和宽容的气氛，这在现代交通条件下是非常必要的。但如今，这种对礼貌行为的感谢太少了。现在，许多司机似乎对见到的礼貌行为不闻不问。
然而，不恰当的礼貌也是很危险的。一个典型的例子就是：司机挥手让孩子过马路，进入迎面有车辆行驶的车道，而这些车辆不能及时停下来。同样的例子：鼓励老太太过马路，不管什么时候什么地点，只要她们想过去。
一位有丰富经验的司机，其行为没有任何错误，曾经告诉我：如果司机学会一次一辆、逐渐而恰当地融入车流而不因为交通堵塞导致坏心情，对改善交通状况很有帮助。不幸的是，现在的司机甚至还没有学会开车，更别提在路上有规范的行为。几年以前，专家警告我们：汽车拥有者的人数猛增，这就要求所有的马路使用者应该互相谦让。对于所有人来说，是我们记住这句话的时候了。
51. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】细节判断
【解析过程】根据这篇文章，道路上的问题主要是由于 。
A. 人们对于司机的态度 B. 当代生活的节奏
C. 交通状况 D. 司机的行为
线索：文章的第1段提到“but manners on the roads are becoming horrible.”表明选项D是正确答案。选项B和C文章第1段也提到了，但不是作者要说明的重点。
【考点提示】转折连接词如but，however等，意义非常的重要，它们是很明显的线索词，一般作者是要强调转折词后面的内容，而不是前面的内容，所以同学们应该努力在阅读文章时，抓住这些关键词。
52. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】句子理解
【解析过程】该句“你也许会忍受这个粗鲁和漠视他人的司机，但是今天遵守规矩的司机们对这个规定来讲都是成为了一个奢望”暗示 。
A. 我们的社会对于那些遵守规矩的司机是不平等的
B. 那些粗鲁的司机仅仅是偶尔才会遇到
C. 今天不礼貌的司机构成了司机的主要部分
D. 那些遵守规则的司机不能容忍粗鲁的司机
线索：文章的第1段提到“You might tolerate the rude and inconsiderate driver，but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule.”作者在第1句话刚讲到道路礼节的重要性，后面的这句话应该是对前面的内容补充说明，所以在含义上应该是具有紧密的联系性。判断下来选项C是最合适的答案。
【考点提示】句子理解题最好的解析方法就是根据文章的中心，把选项带入到原文中去评判内容是否正确。
53. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】句子理解
【解析过程】通过引用“好的意识”作者的意思是 。
A. 司机对于困难情况的快速反应 B. 司机能够理解并理智反应的能力
C. 司机对于糟糕路况的容忍 D. 司机对于礼貌和规则的认可
线索：文章的第4段提到“Road politeness is not only good manners，but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed and good-tempered of drivers to resist the temptation to revenge when subjected to uncivilized behaviors...”，第2段明确地表示司机必须具有优秀的道路理解能力的同时，更重要的是要具有好的意识或理解力，在遇到特殊情况的时候，才能及时做出处理。
【考点提示】一定要把句子代入到文章中看一看，读一读才可以，否则很容易选择错误。
54. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】细节判断
【解析过程】专家们以前指出在面对汽车所有者迅速增长的现象时， 。
A. 司机们应该准备互相谦让
B. 道路的使用者应该做出更多的牺牲
C. 司机们应该相互更多的沟通
D. 如果他们对别人不尊重的话，就会遭遇很大的损失
线索：文章的第4段提到“...the car-ownership explosion would demand a lot more give-and-take from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart...”表明的选项A是正确答案。
【考点提示】该句话的理解主要在“give-and-take”短语的理解，该短语的正确理解是解析的关键。理解该短语，就要好好地读一读第4段第1句话，表示司机们必须学会一次一辆逐渐地进入到车流之中。所以，短语的含义是和礼让有关。这里，同学们一定要记住的是考试时候不要慌，对于简单的内容好好体会字面后的含义，可能比那些晦涩不好理解的单词含义更重要。
55. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】主旨判断
【解析过程】依照本文作者的观点 。
A. 司机们应该适当地使用道路礼貌
B. 严格的交通管理非常需要
C. 那些粗鲁不细心的司机应该被惩罚
D. 司机们应该尽最大的努力避免交通堵塞
文章的第2段讲到路上的礼貌，第3段关于不适当的马路礼貌，都说明司机们应该关注道路交通的礼貌规则。选项A是正确答案。
【考点提示】主旨题：文章的关键词必须出现。作者的态度（积极或消极）必须出现。具体信息不能出现。①主旨题的标志：mainly about，mainly discuss，the best title 。②串线法：抓首段和其余各段的第一句话，把其意思连接成一个整体。要注意总结性的提示词和转折词，特别要注意中心句。③小心首段陷阱。④逆向思维法、快速作文法。⑤主旨题错误选项的干扰特征经常是：局部信息，即选项的内容小于文章的内容；范围过宽，即选项的内容大于文章的内容。
Passage Five
当今媒体公司中最引人注目的趋势就是纵向结合，试图同时控制与媒体行业相关的多个部门，使各个部门互相帮助。例如，时代华纳，除了出版杂志和书，还拥有HBO、华纳电影工作室、各种有线电视网遍布美国以及CNN。日本公司Matsushita拥有MCA Records公司和Universal Studios公司，它还生产广播设备。
要描述当今的媒体的经济地位，也就是要谈论兼并。媒体以前所未有的数量相互买卖，并组成媒体集团，使自己在市场上占有一席之地，保持和增加利润。1986年，广播网络公司首先被卖出，同年，两家网络公司也被卖出——它们是ABC和NBC。
自1980年以来，媒体公司的兼并一直在迅速增加，有两个方面的原因。第一个原因是：现在大多数大公司都是公开交易的，这就意味着它们的股票可以在国家的某个股票交易所里进行交易。这使兼并变得相对比较容易。
一家传媒公司想购买一家公众拥有的公司时，只要当这家公司的股票可以购买时，媒体公司购买它的股票就可以了。公司股票的公开性意味着：任何人只要有足够的资金，都可以投资美国的媒体行业，鲁珀特·默多克就是这样加入媒体行业的。
媒体兼并活动增加的第二个原因是：从1980年开始，联邦通讯委员会（FCC）逐渐不再对广播媒体进行管制。比如，1980年前，FCC规定一家公司只能拥有五个电视台、五个调幅（AM）广播电台以及五个调频（FM）广播电台；还要求公司在出售某个电台之前必须经营三年。1980年后，FCC取消了三年制规定，增加了一家公司容许拥有的广播电台数量。整个20世纪90年代媒体兼并的趋势一直在继续，因为不断改进的技术扩大了传媒产品的市场。
媒体所有权的问题非常重要。只要这个国家的传媒业被少数大公司操纵，那么不同的政治观念和创新思想的表达就可能受到限制。

D. 它们已经停止了20世纪90年代兼并的趋势。
线索：文章的第2段提到“The media are buying and selling each other in unprecedented numbers ...”表明选项B是正确答案。选项A原文没有明确提到。C选项和原文不符合，文章提到了两家公司，但没有说传媒是由这两家公司所控制。D选项和原文的内容相反，原文表达的内容是组合在20世纪90年代的后期蓬勃发展。
【考点提示】选项之间往往是有一定的逻辑关系，比如该题的A和B选项之间就有时间的先后逻辑关系，同学们在解析的时候，可以把重点放到选项A和B上。A说的是它们过去如何，B说的是它们现在如何。

Passage Six
在1997年的大选活动中，“教育，教育”是托尼·布莱尔喜欢的口号。时代变化很快。教育正在迅速落伍。“学习”（确切一点说，是“终生学习”）是新工党的时髦语。从“教育”向“学习”的转变反映出的不仅仅是语言上的变化。这源于教育研究和左翼思想。20世纪80年代，英国的教育家获得了一些新的美国思想。其中有一个观点是：传统的考试不能检验一个人的全部能力。另一个观点是：技能不一定是在传统的教室中从老师那里学到的。人们可以通过各种方式获得知识。
所有这些都与左翼思想产生了共鸣，他们认为：传统的教学方法不能充分适合个体学习者的要求。提倡终生学习的人争论说，这只不过描述了过去十年中教育发生的改变。现在，在课堂外有成千上万的计划可供学生学习。
到现在，教育一直都在自下而上发生着改变。在未来的几个星期，政府将帮助自上而下地进行改革。一个主要针对终身学习者的项目即将启动它的第一个示范程序员项目。第一年的资金是4400万美元，所以它将在全国范围调整“学习中心”的新网络。传统机构比如中学和大学，将在一些非传统学习地点提供训练，比如在超市、旅馆和教堂。其理论是：在这样的地方学生会感到更自在，因此，将比在教室里更有学习动机。
新项目允许受教育者在学习的地点、内容、时间方面拥有完全的选择权。其余的州立教育机构部门，政府似乎仍然尽可能多地限制选择权。如果这些项目成功的话，它们将改善英国劳动力的劳动技能。
61. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】细节判断
【解析过程】根据文章作者的表达，教育到学习的改变是 。
A. 仅仅是语言的改变 B. 反映了传统教育观念
C. 反映了政府限制选择的愿望 D. 并不仅仅是一个语言的改变
线索：文章的第1段提到“The shift from ‘education’to‘learning’reflects more than a change of language.”表明选项D是正确答案。
【考点提示】选项A不太可能是正确的答案，因为有绝对化的单词。but在be动词之后表示“仅仅”的含义。
62. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】细节判断
【解析过程】下面所有的内容都正确，除了 。
A. 即使在教室外小学生们也可以学习技能
B. 更应该鼓励学生们在教室内学习
C. 新计划是用来提高英国劳动力的技能
D. 传统的教学方法无法满足单个学生的要求
线索1：文章的第2段提到“And there are now hundreds of schemes in which pupils learn outside the classroom.”表明选项A为正确答案。
线索2：文章的第4段提到“If these programs succeed，they could improve the skills of Britain’s workforce.”表明选项C为正确答案。
线索3：文章的第2段提到“All this echoed left-wing ideas that traditional teaching methods were not sufficiently adaptable to the needs of individual learners.”D正确。
根据文章第2段和第4段内容，我们很容易看到选项B在原文中没有提到。
【考点提示】三对一错题是一种比较难的题目，该题的解析方法的关键在定位，解决的最好办法就是在同学们阅读文章的时候，在某地方就必须做标记，比如每段的首句和末句、转折的句子、总结句、因果关系句等，这样回头找的时候就比较简单了。
63. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】细节推断
【解析过程】从这篇文章中，我们可以推论出新的项目 。
A. 从下面开始 B. 在十年前就已经开始
C. 将使学生们对他们的学习完全控制 D. 将会在传统的教育机构实施
线索：文章的第5段提到“The new schemes allow consumers of education to exercise complete choice over where，what and when they learn.”表明选项C是正确答案。A选项和原文第3段的首句不符合。
【考点提示】每段的首句和末句一般都是同学们必须要关注的内容。
64. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】段落中心推断
【解析过程】在文章的第2段，作者建议 。
A. 传统的考试能够测验学生的全部能力
B. 还有别的方法可以适应小学生学习技能
C. 在传统的教室小学生们从老师那里学到的很少
D. 终生学习的观念仅仅是教育研究的结果
线索：文章的第2段提到“And there are now hundreds of schemes in which pupils learn outside the classroom.”表明选项B是正确答案。其他选项是干扰选项。
65. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】细节判断
【解析过程】根据这篇文章，新工党政府将 。
A. 会建立更多学习中心在英国 B. 不会改变它的教育政策
C. 将会继续限制所有州立教育机构的选择 D. 不太情愿在教育上大的投资
线索：文章的第4段提到“With funding of $ 44 million in its first year，it will coordinate a new network of ‘learning centers’throughout the country...”表明选项A是正确答案。B选项和原文的内容截然相反。C选项和原文第4段的内容“In the rest of the state-run education sectors（部门），”相反。D选项和原文的第3段“With funding of $ 44 million in its first year，”也不符合。
【考点提示】本文有一个特点，就是它的考试题目和原文的段落位置顺序并不是非常一致，这时同学们要注意出题的顺序，但绝不能顽固地坚持这一点，对于有些文章来讲，要适当地做一些调整。
Part Ⅳ Cloze
大多数有价值的职业需要一些种类的专业化训练。因此，从理想状态上来说，对
66 的选择应该在选高中课程之前就完成了。 67 ，事实上，大多数人在他们的职业生涯中会做出数次工作选择，这 68 是因为经济和行业环境的变化，部分是因为要提高 69 的地位。“单一的完美工作”并不存在。 70 ，年轻人应该参加范围广泛的培训项目，这样他们就会使自己 71 很多种工作，而不是某一种单一的 72 。
不幸的是，许多年轻人不得不在 73 称职的职业顾问或心理学家帮助的情况下做出自己的职业计划。在这样的情况下，由于他们对职业环境和自己都知道 74 ，他们就在一种要么成功要么失败的赌博心态的 75 上来选择他们一生的工作。他们中有一些人不断地变换工作，其他的则一直 76 着那些不能使自己开心而且自己也不适合的工作。
一个通常的错误就是根据实际或想象的有关 77 的声誉来选择自己的未来职业。太多的高中生（或他们的父母）选择了进入专业领域。他们 78 这一领域相对较少的工人比例和极端高的对教育和个人的 79 。专业工作或“白领”工作的实际或想象中的声誉并 80 作为选择其作为一生职业的原因。 81 ，这些工作并不总能得到很好的报酬。由于很大一部分工作岗位是机械的和手工的，年轻人中的 82 应该对这一领域中的工作给予充分的 83 。
在做出职业选择之前，一个人需要大体知道自己希望 84 得到什么以及他愿意付出多大的努力去追求这些东西。一些人渴望社会地位，其他人需要知识上的满足；一些人追求安全稳定，其他人则愿意承担 85 来获取较高回报。每一种职业选择都既有其要求也有回报。
66. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】identification“辨认，识别”；entertainment“娱乐”；accommodation“住处，适应性调节”；occupation“职业”。文章开篇即讲了职业，浏览全文可以发现职业是文章的主题，因此，这里根据句意也是讲对职业的选择。
67. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】逻辑衔接
【考点剖析】however“然而”；therefore“因此”；though“尽管”；thereby“因此，从而”。Actually前后的句意是转折的，可以排除B、D。though通常用在句首，后面接一个完整的句子，而这里用逗号分开了，故选A。
68. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】entirely“完全地”；mainly“主要地”；partly“部分地”；largely“主要地，很大程度上地”。该句后面有一个表并列的and且后面接了partly，综合文意可知应选partly.
69. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】结构衔接
【考点剖析】这里要选填一个代词，很明显发现这句话的主语是most people，所以用
their.
70. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】逻辑衔接
【考点剖析】since“既然，以后”；therefore“因此”；furthermore“此外，而且”；forever“永远”。前句说单一的完美工作不存在，而这句表示要接受不同种类的训练，所以是因果关系。
71. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】make“制造，成为”；fit“使合适”；take“拿走”；leave“离开”。显然接受了各种训练之后就会适应不同种类的工作。
72. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】job“工作”；way“方式”；means“方式，手段”；company“公司”。rather than表示“而不是”的意思，因此此处应与前面很多工作对照，这里表示一个工作。
73. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】第1段介绍了接受职业培训的重要性，这段开头unfortunately表示“不幸地”，表示与上段形成转折。故选C，强调没有职业培训的情况下什么会发生。
74. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】逻辑衔接
【考点剖析】little“少，修饰不可数名词”；few“少，修饰可数名词”；much“很多，修饰不可数名词”；a lot“很多，修饰可数和不可数名词”，根据上文意思，由于得不到专家的帮助，他们对职业世界所知的肯定很少，故可排除C、D。few修饰可数名词，也可排除。
75. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】惯用衔接
【考点剖析】chance“机会”；basis“基础”；purpose“目的，意图”；opportunity“机会”。这一句用来说明导致卡罗拉地区和全国在人口数量增长上迥异的原因，而不是结果，所以排除C。B和D一般用人作主语。on basis 是固定搭配，符合句意。on 与chance和 opportunity不能搭配，on purpose指“故意的”。
76. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】apply to“应用”；appeal to“呼吁，要求”；stick to“坚持”；turn to“求助于，转向”。这句与前面一句意思形成转折，前面说有些人一直换工作，这句说另一些人固守一个工作不换。
77. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】结构衔接
【考点剖析】该处要挑选一个代词，显然所指应为occupation，故选its.
78. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】concerning“关于”；following“追随”；considering“考虑”；disregarding“不顾”。该段开头说了common mistake，既然是错误，这里就应该用一个批评的词。结合句意可做出正确选择。
79. 【正确答案】B
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】preferences“偏好”；requirements“要求”；tendencies“趋势，倾向”；ambitions“野心，雄心”。这句话是为了表示对高中生来说进入专业领域的困难，A、C不适合用high来修饰，D项意思不符合原意，且与educational不搭配。
80. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】综观全段，意思是不能根据想象的职业声誉来进行选择，因此这里自然要用否定的意思。
81. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】逻辑衔接
【考点剖析】therefore“因此”；however“然而”；nevertheless“然而”；moreover“此外”这里需要一个连词，前后两句都是对同一现象的批评，因此显然不能用转折连词，排除B、C，A项不符合句意。
82. 【正确答案】A
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】majority“大多数”；mass“质量，大量”；minority“少数”；multitude“多数，群众”，这里横线上所要填的词显然应该与前面的a large portion of 相对应，故排除选项C，从语法角度可以排除B、D。
83. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】proposal“提议”；suggestion“建议”；consideration“考虑”；appraisal“评价，估价”，顺着前句意思，既然这一领域有很多工作机会，那么求职时自然要重点考虑这些领域。
84. 【正确答案】C
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】towards“朝，向”；against“相反，反对”；out of“从某物中”；without“没有”，这里原句意为从生活中得到某些东西，故选out of.
85. 【正确答案】D
【考点类型】语义衔接
【考点剖析】根据句子结构，others 前面和后面应该表示相对的意思，前句说一些人喜欢安全稳定，那么与此相对，后面的人就不喜欢安全稳定，很自然可以推出喜欢冒险。选D。
Paper Two试卷二（60 minutes）
Part Ⅰ Error Detection and Correction
1. 【正确答案】D，改为“actors’”。
【句子翻译】这出剧中所有的演员都演得非常好，观众对他们出众的表演致以热烈的掌声。
【考点类型】名词所有格
【考点剖析】actors 和名词短语excellent performance直接连在了一起，这显然不符合语法，从句意看，观众是对表演本身致以掌声，actor需用名词所有格形式，表示谁的表演。
【考点扩展】我们常见的名词所有格表示有生命的东西。比如：the girl’s hat“女孩的帽子”。但它也可以表示无生命的东西，像时间、自然现象、国家（城市）等实体、度量衡等。比如：a day’s journey“一天的旅程”；the earth’s atmosphere“地球的大气层”；China’s industrialization“中国的工业化”；twenty-five pound’s weight“
2. 【正确答案】A，改为“What”。
【句子翻译】这个女人所讲的如此重要以至于我让所有人都停止交谈并注意听。
【考点类型】主语从句
【考点剖析】主语从句缺少宾语，不能用that引导。
【考点扩展】主语从句
用作主语的从句叫做主语从句。引导主语从句的关联词有从属连词、疑问副词、疑问代词、缩合连接代词、缩合连接副词。比如：That they were in truth sisters was clear from the facial resemble between them. 显然，她们确实是亲姐妹，她俩的脸型很像（关联词是从属连词that）。What she did is not yet known. 她干了什么还不清楚（关联词是疑问代词what）。How this happened is not clear to anyone. 这件事怎么发生的谁也不清楚（关联词是关系副词how）。Whoever comes is welcome. 谁来了都欢迎（关联词是缩合连接代词）。Wherever you are in my home—my only home. 你所在的任何地方都是我的家——我唯一的家（关联词是缩合连接副词）。有时可用it作形式主语将真实主语从句置于句末。比如：It is said that he’s got married. 听说他结婚了（被动结构）。How strange it is that the children are so quiet！真奇怪，小孩竟会如此安静（感叹句必须用形式主语）！
3. 【正确答案】C，改为“will have flown”。
【句子翻译】这是迄今为止我所经历的时间最长的一次飞行，当我们到达洛杉矶时，我们将会飞行13个小时。
【考点类型】将来完成时的用法
【考点剖析】by the time 表示到某时刻为止，通常和完成时连用，由于本句by the time所引导的从句中所用时态为一般现在时，所以主句用将来完成时。
【考点扩展】将来完成时表示在将来某一时间之前完成的动作，并往往对将来某一时间产生影响。它常与表示将来的时间状语连用。比如：Will you soon have finished the table.你会快点把餐具摆好吗？将来完成时还往往和时间或条件状语从句连用。比如：When I have done that，I shall have done all I was supposed to do.我做完这件事，就做了我全部应做的事。
4. 【正确答案】B，改为“make”。
【句子翻译】控制质量和做出生产决策是工业工程师的众多责任中的一部分。
【考点类型】平行结构
【考点剖析】由于中间有and，所以前后应该一致。
【考点扩展】连接平行结构的常用连词有and，but，or，not only...but also...，either... or...，neither... nor...，both...and...，as...as...等。
5. 【正确答案】D，应去掉“back”。
【句子翻译】如果顾客不在30天内取回干洗的衣服，干洗店就没有送还的义务。
【考点类型】语义重复
【考点剖析】return本身就有“归还”的意思，没有必要再加back，如果要用back，则应说give back，也表示归还的意思。
6. 【正确答案】A，改为“（should）investigate”。
【句子翻译】他认为，空军应当对不明飞行物目击时间进行调查的建议被委员会批准并被认为是合适的。
【考点类型】虚拟语气
【考点剖析】recommendation“劝告，建议”，从句应用（should）+ 动词原形。
【考点扩展】表示命令（order）、意愿（wish，aspire）、要求（request，require，claim）、建议（suggest，propose，advise）等词后名词从句要用虚拟语气（should）+ 动词原形。
7. 【正确答案】B，改为“should be used”。
【句子翻译】只有在潜在的参与者都经常通过电子邮件进行交流时，才可以用电子邮件来描述一个即将成立的工厂。
【考点类型】被动语态
【考点剖析】主语不是人，而是物，因此要用被动语态。
【考点扩展】被动语态的用法
语态是动词的一种形式，用以表示主语和谓语之间的关系。被动语态常由助动词be和动词的过去分词构成。当我们不知道动作的执行者、侧重强调动作的承受者和出于行文及表达习惯的需要等场合时，常用被动语态。比如：Printing was introduced into Europe from
8. 【正确答案】D，改为“influential”。
【句子翻译】孔子作为一名才能出众享有卓越声誉的政治家、学者、教育家，通常被奉为中国最伟大、最具影响力的哲学家。

【句子翻译】第一个电灯里有两根碳棒，它们的气雾帮助引导电流通过间隙。
【考点类型】定语从句
【考点剖析】vapor是从属于rods的。
10. 【正确答案】C，改为“bad”。
【句子翻译】据说爱因斯坦对于他的理论被应用于创造战争武器感到非常难过。
【考点类型】系表结构
【考点剖析】feel是系动词，后面直接接形容词，而不是副词。
Part Ⅱ Translation
【参考译文】Culture is the best medium for different people of different countries to understand each other. Many cities in
【结构分析】该文共有四句话。
1. 第一句是系表结构。
2. 第二句中的主语是：“许多中国城市”，“通过……”表一种方式，可用“through”引导的介词短语来处理。
3. 第三句是个复合句，而且从汉语中我们看出主句和从句都没有主语。那我们把这句可以处理成含有由两个it 这个形式主语引导的复合句，即：“It has been proven that it is...”句式结构。如第一个形式主语it 指代的是：that 引导的从句，即：that it is the best way to promote the exchange between Chinese people and people in the rest of the world。而第二个it指代的是一个动词不定式，即：to promote the exchange between Chinese people and people in the rest of the world.
4. 最后一句话可以采用这个句式结构：“not only... but also...”.
【词义推敲】最佳媒体：the best medium（单数）；
举办文化节：to hold cultural festivals；
提高知名度：to enhance the（one’s）fame / be better known to sth. / sb.；
已经证明：It has been proven that...；
促进……交流：to promote the exchange between...；
限于……：be confined to sth.；/ be limited to sth. 前者表示“禁闭于……，受制 / 限于……范围”，后者指“限于……，限制在……”。此处应选用后者。因为前者含有“禁闭，受限于……”之意。

Which is More Important，Wealth or Health？
Different people have different viewpoints about this subject. Some say that wealth is more important，for keeping fit needs money. Others say health is more important，for you can do nothing without a good health. This question is still under discussion.
In my opinion，health is more important than wealth. The following points can we support my statement. First，a good health will enable you to enjoy your life. With a good health，you will be happy with yourself and your family as well. Second，a good health will enable you to work effectively. In this way，you may do more contributions to our society. Third，a good health is also the best way of money saving. With a good health，you will reduce the economic burden for yourself，your family and the society as well. I can’t imagine what will happen to a society whose citizens have a poor health. Therefore，health is more important than health.
