第二部分 英語(yǔ)知識(shí)運(yùn)用 (共兩節(jié)，滿(mǎn)分45分)
第一節(jié)單項(xiàng)填空(共15小題；每小題1分，滿(mǎn)分15分)
從A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出可以填人空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。
21. Jack couldn't remember the exact date of the typhoon，but he knew it was _______ Sunday, because
everybody was at _________ church.
A. ／; the B. a; ／ C. ／;a D. the; ／
【解析】B. 第一空用“a”表示某一個(gè)不確定的星期日。第二空“at church”是固定搭配表示在做禮拜。
22. ―He made an apology ________ be blamed _________ what he had done.
―It's really wise of him.
A. so as to not; of B. in order to not; for
C. so as not to; for D. in order not to; of
【解析】C. so as to的否定形式在不定式to前面加not；因某事責(zé)備某人用blame sb for sth。
23. ―How can I thank you?
―Don't mention it. Any other man in that case _______ the same thing.
A. would have done B. could do C. must do D. should have done
【解析】A. 本句的意思是“在那種情況下誰(shuí)都會(huì)這么做”。這是一個(gè)隱含虛擬語(yǔ)氣，它是一種想像出來(lái)的非真實(shí)的東西。
24. Icy temperatures have damaged thousands of trucks
and trains _______ with coal food and passengers in the most severe winter
_________ in 50 years in southern
A. loading; seen B. loading; seeing C. loaded; saw D. loaded; seen
【解析】D. 這兩個(gè)都是動(dòng)詞的過(guò)去分詞表被動(dòng)，做后置定語(yǔ)。
25. It is what the students do in their spare time that really ________ them to take their place in society when they grow up.
A. 1ets B. prepares C. has D. makes
【解析】B. prepare sb to do sth譯為“使某人為某事做好準(zhǔn)備”。
26. ―Is there a department store around _______ I can get a birthday present for my brother?
―Yes，just across the street.
A. which B. where C. on which D. that
【解析】B. 本題是一道陷阱題。題中around這個(gè)介詞對(duì)先行詞a department store和定語(yǔ)從句造成了分隔。學(xué)生會(huì)誤認(rèn)為是介詞+關(guān)系代詞的用法，實(shí)際上around是a department store的定語(yǔ)，所以用關(guān)系副詞where引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句。
27. Gone are the days when China，a major economic power in Asia today, _______ at the mercy of others.
A. was B. is C. had been D. were
【解析】A. 這里的a major economic power in Asia today短語(yǔ)是China的同位語(yǔ)。根據(jù)句意when引導(dǎo)
的句子應(yīng)該使用過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)。
28. That dog's running again．The Smiths should keep it in the fence or at least，________.
A. tie up B. tying up C. tied up D. to tie it up
【解析】C. 考查keep sth done的結(jié)構(gòu)。
29. ―What were you up to when Mother came in?
― I ________ for a while and _______ my homework.
A. was playing; was going to do B. had played; did
C. had played; was going to do D. played; did
【解析】C play動(dòng)作在came之前，故用過(guò)去完成時(shí)態(tài)，而do my homework的動(dòng)作則是即將開(kāi)始，因此答案選C。
30. The schoolboys and schoolgirls are walking along the street, ________ a small red flag.
A. each of them holds B. they each hold C each holds D. each holding
【解析】D. 考查獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)。
31. Since Senior Three we have been reviewing lessons―________ on Sunday, when we could otherwise have a day off.
A. but B. only C. even D. except
【解析】C. 本句的意思是“甚至星期日我們也要復(fù)習(xí)功課”，關(guān)鍵是otherwise的用法。
32. My 8-year-old son said “Mum! I don't want to go to school” and, after _______ seemed a long time, he burst out crying.
A. what B. that C. when D. which
【解析】A. after后面是一個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句，賓語(yǔ)從句缺主語(yǔ)。
33. _______ if you passed the exam you would receive a reward was telling lies．
A. Whoever told you that B. Those who told you that
C. No matter who told you D. Whoever told you
【解析】A. whoever相當(dāng)于anyone who，告訴某人某事tell sb sth，這里that引導(dǎo)一個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句，賓語(yǔ)從句中又含有一個(gè)if引導(dǎo)的條件從句，所以that不能省。
34. ―He had never thought that his Success would come when he ________ wanted it.
―Indeed! All that he did finally paid off.
A. most B. least C. first D. best
【解析】B. 第一句的意思是：他從未想到他的成功在他最不想的時(shí)候到來(lái)了。
35. It's true that the old road is less direct and a bit longer．We won't take the new one, ________, because we don't feel as safe on it.
A. When B. therefore C. while D. though
【解析】D. 空白處使用副詞though表示前后意義上的轉(zhuǎn)折，注意though位于句中時(shí)前后多用逗號(hào)隔開(kāi)。
第二節(jié) 完形填空 （共20小題，每小題1.5分，滿(mǎn)分30分）
I used to find notes left in the collection basket, beautiful notes about my homilies (基督教的布道)and about the writer's thoughts on the daily readings. The 36 fascinated me.
But it was a long time 37 I met the author of the notes. One Sunday morning, I was 38 that someone was waiting for me in the office. The young person who answered the rectory door said that it was "the woman who said she left all the notes". When I was 39 , since I immediately recognized her from

wounded but 52 heart．She possessed a fine-tuned sense of beauty. Her only
We can easily forget to cherish those things that last. Friendship, so rare and so good, just needs our care--maybe even the simple gesture of dropping of some beautiful words in a basket, in the hope that such beauty will be shared and taken to heart.
The truth of her life was a desire to see beyond the 54 for a glimpse of what it is that matters．She found beauty and grace and they befriended her，and showed her what is 55 .

Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the website you've visited, or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.
In fact, it's likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen―the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked.
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy，that it’s important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs (碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.
The key question is：Does that matter?
For many Americans, the answer apparently is “no”.
When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found an overwhelming pessimism about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is “slipping away, and that bothers me".
But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny fraction of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy．Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths (收費(fèi)站) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will surrender personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon(優(yōu)惠券). But privacy does matter at least sometimes. It's like health. When you have it, you don’t notice it. Only when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it.
59. What does the author mean by saying “the 21st century equivalent of being caught naked” (Lines 3-4, Para. 2)?
A. People’s personal information easily accessed without their knowledge.
B. In the 21st century people try every means to look into others’ secrets.
C. People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age.
D. Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology.
【解析】A . “在21世紀(jì)就等于是裸奔被抓住了”。這句話(huà)的意思是，現(xiàn)在是信息社會(huì)，一不留神我們的隱私和信息就流露到外面去了。人們的私人信息容易獲取而沒(méi)有得到本人的同意。
60. What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?
A. Friends should open their hearts to each other.
B. Friends should always be faithful to each other.
C. There should be a distance even between friends.
D. There should be fewer disputes between friends.
【解析】C. 心理學(xué)家是如何建議朋友之間的關(guān)系的? 心理學(xué)家說(shuō)“溝通是非常重要的”。文章中說(shuō)“心
理學(xué)家說(shuō)，在合適的時(shí)間、分段的來(lái)把你自己的隱私和信息交流給你的家人、你的戀人是非常有必
要的”，可是有邊界是健康的，言下之意是保持一定的距離。后面的一句話(huà)說(shuō)“交流是有必要的，
但應(yīng)該在合適的時(shí)間”。即便在朋友之間也應(yīng)該是有距離的。
61. Why does the author say “we 1ive in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret” (Line5, Para. 3)?
A. Modern society has finally evolved into an open society.
B. People leave traces around when using modern technology.
C. There are always people who are curious about others’ affairs.
D. Many search engines profit by revealing people's identities.
【解析】B . “我們生活在一個(gè)連秘密都不能被保護(hù)的世界中”，“人們?cè)谶^(guò)程中，非常容易留下痕跡，讓人重新的架構(gòu)和還原�！�
62. What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection?
A. They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.
B. They use various loyalty cards for business transactions.
C. They rely more and more on electronic devices.
D. They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.
【解析】D. 有關(guān)于隱私保護(hù)的話(huà)題美國(guó)人做了什么?應(yīng)該選擇“他們說(shuō)的多，但真正要做到卻做的少”。
63. According to the passage，privacy is like health in that _________.
A. people will make every effort to keep it
B. its importance is rarely understood
C. it is something that can easily be lost
D. people don’t cherish it until they 10se it
【解析】D. 從這篇文章得知“隱私就像健康，我們丟失掉健康的時(shí)候才知道可惜”。
C
Long after the 1998 World Cup was won, disappointed fans were still cursing the disputed refereeing (裁判) decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees.
The researcher organized an experimental tournament (錦標(biāo)賽) involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour，divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge.
Observers noted down the referees' errors. of which there were 61 over the tournament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes, a remarkably high number. The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyze the matches in detail. Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident.
When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The research shows the optimum (最佳的) distance is about 20 meters.
There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second.
If FIFA, football's international ruling body, wants to improve the standard of refereeing at the next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with the ball，the researcher argues.
He also says that FIFA's insistence that referees should retire at age 45 may be misguided. If keeping up with the action is not so important, their physical condition is less critical.
64. The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to ________.
A. review the decisions of referees at the 1 9 98 World Cup
B. analyze the causes of errors made by football referees
C. set a standard for football refereeing
D. encourage referees
【解析】B. 短文中研究人員的實(shí)驗(yàn)是為了分析裁判失誤的原因(第四、五段)。從短文第一段中“A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees”一句也可確定本題答案。
65. The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was
A. slightly above average
B. higher than in the 1998 World Cup
C. quite unexpected
D. as high as in a standard match
【解析】C. 本題涉及短文第三段關(guān)于誤判率的要點(diǎn)。第三段第一句句末的a remarkably high number
即是本題答案依據(jù)。
66. The findings of the experiment show that _________.
A. errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the ball
B. the farther the referee is from the incident，the fewer the errors
C. the more slowly the referee runs，the more likely will errors occur
D. errors are less likely when a referee stays in one Spot
【解析】A. 本題涉及實(shí)驗(yàn)結(jié)果，第四段第二句即是本題答案依據(jù)。
67. The underlined word “officials” (Para．4)most probably refers to“
A. the researchers involved in the experiment
B. the inspectors of the football tournament
C. the referees of the football tournament
D. the observers at the site of the experiment
【解析】C. 短語(yǔ)的理解不僅要基于上下文，也要緊扣短文主題，不論是上下文還是結(jié)合短文主題，這里的officials都應(yīng)該指referees．
68. What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?
A. The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 45．
B. Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a football referee．
C. A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible．
D. An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition．
【解析】B. 根據(jù)短文最后一段要點(diǎn)：① 國(guó)際足聯(lián)堅(jiān)持裁判45歲必須退休是出于誤導(dǎo)；② 既然裁判不必時(shí)刻跟著球跑，其身體條件就不是最關(guān)鍵的。結(jié)論涉及裁判的身體和年齡。A和C明示與上述要點(diǎn)相悖，選項(xiàng)D是不舍邏輯的推論：身體條件不是最關(guān)鍵不等于身體不好也行。
D
WASHINGTON―The Environmental Protection Agency on Wednesday denied California and 16 other states the right to set their own standards for carbon dioxide emissions (排放) from automobiles.
The E.P.A. administrator, Stephen L. Johnson, said the proposed
The decision immediately provoked
a heated debate over its scientific basis and whether political pressure was
applied by the automobile industry to help it escape the proposed
In an evening conference call with reporters, Mr. Johnson defended his agency's decision.
“The Bush administration is moving forward with a clear national solution, not a confusing patchwork of state rules,” he said. “I believe this is a better approach than if individual states were to act alone."
The 17 states―including New York, New Jersey and Connecticut―had waited two years for the Bush administration to issue a ruling on an application to set stricter air quality standards than those adopted by the federal government. The decision technically known as a Clean Air Act waiver, was the first time California was refused permission to carry out its own pollution rules; the federal government had previously granted the state more than 50 waivers(棄權(quán)聲明書(shū)).
The emissions standards California proposed in 2004―but never approved by the federal government―would have forced automakers to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 25 percent in new cars and light trucks by 2020, with the cutbacks to begin in 1990 models.
