2008年高考(陕西卷)英语试题分析与答案详解语法和词汇知识6. 答案：A。

考点：考查动词时态语态解析：主句动词为过去式，从句动作又早于主句动作，即过去的过去，应用过去完成式。

备考：过去完成时，即过去的过去。

如：When I got to the station, the train had left.By the time he was twelve, Edison had began to make a living by himself.She said (that) she had never been to Paris.7. 答案：B。

考点：考查倒装句，解析：not until 提前，要求主句部分倒装。

8. 答案：D。

考点：考查同位语从句。

解析：What 与which引导名词性从句须做主语或宾语，该从句并不缺少这样的成分。

根据内容应选where，意思是：你知道晚会在那里举行？9. 答案：B。

考点：考察情态动词解析：从… big --that’s not i mportant 可知，应该是没必要大。

故选needn’t。

10.答案：C。

考点：考察冠词的基本用法用法——特指与泛指。

解析：在等20:08的火车期间吃了一个三明治，是泛指，八点零八分的火车当然是特指的了。

故选C。

11.答案：A。

考点：考查非谓语动词及其语态。

解析：be supposed to do是固定搭配。

又因it（the message）与send因为被动关系，故用动词不定式的被动语态。

12.答案：D。

考点：考查名词及不定代词解析：Furniture是不可数名词，可排除B。

some不用于否定句，可排除C。

not any 为完全否定，与下文just an old desk（仅有一张旧课桌）矛盾, 排除A。

选D，意为“家具不多”，正好与just an old desk呼应。

13.答案：D。

解析：从四个选项的设置不难看出是考察介词加关系代词引导的非限制性定语从句。

一、关于听力！！！第一招：相关保留原则当选项中有两项表达意思相近时，那么正确答案必在这两项之中！这时只需稍微听一听对话，即可知答案，如果出现了双重相关，便可直接确认正确选项，只需听完对话加之认证一下即可！典型例题：4. A) Visiting the Browning.B) Writing a postcard.C) Looking for a postcard.D) Filling in a form.例题分析：B、C两项均含有 a poscard ，B、D两项均含有写...之意，即B、C和B、D构成双重相关，即可得出B为正确选项！本题听力原文：4. M: What\'s the matter? You\'ve been sitting there for ages, just staring into space.W: I told the Browning I\'d send them a postcard. Now I don\'t know what to say.Q: What\'s the woman doing?第二招：异项保留原则当选项中出现有意思明显相反的两项时，那么正确答案必在此二项中出现！如果出现双重异项，那么即可判断出正确答案，异项保留原则在六级考试听力短对话中应用广泛！典型例题：6. A) She can’t finish her assignment, either.B) She can’t afford a computer right now.C) The man can use her computer.D) The man should buy a computer right away.例题分析：A、B异项，A项的意思是她现在有电脑，B项的意思则是她现在没有电脑。

B、D异项，B是说女方无电脑，而D是说男方无电脑，男女也是一种反意关系。

关于实行农贸市场现代化企业管理的建议（XX县市场开发中心管理科，浙江：313100）摘要：企业是一种经济型的组织，与事业单位、政府机构存在重要的区别。

事业单位企业化更是一种复杂的过程，如何使得这种过程顺利的开展，一直是众多学者研究的热门话题。

在当代市场经济条件下，对农贸市场实行企业化管理显得非常必要。

笔者通过多个角度对企业和实际情况进行了解，提出了一些有利于提升农贸市场企业化管理水平的建议。

希望这些建议能够为一些农贸市场的管理者提供意见参考。

关键词：企业；农贸市场；“6S”管理；团队；沟通一、引言2011年是一个特殊的年份，在这一年，XX县市场开发中心将发生翻天覆地的变化，从一个行政性的事业单位变成为一个现代型企业。

XX县市场开发中心下辖八个农贸市场和托管一家农贸市场，即农副产品综合批发市场、中心农贸市场、小浦综合农贸市场、林城农贸市场、红星桥农贸市场、海兴桥市场、龙潭湾市场、柏家浜市场和水木花都市场，其中水木花都市场属于托管市场。

农副产品综合批发市场和中心农贸市场属于综合型的大市场，在浙江省内都属于重要的市场，并获得过多种荣誉。

其它的农贸市场对于当地的人民生活也都具有重要的意义。

XX县市场开发中心的主要收入来源于这些市场，在目前的情况下，如何对这些农贸市场成功的进行现代化企业管理，将成为市场开发中心的重中之重，同时也是市场开发中心能够成功转型的关键，为此探讨如何实行农贸市场的现代化企业管理。

二、企业概述及其理解（一）企业的概念与目标探讨如何实行农贸市场的现代化企业管理，必须首先要了解企业。

现代性企业是一个历史概念，它不是从来就有的。

在封建社会及以前的社会，人类社会没有企业这个名称。

只是当人类发展到资本主义社会时，企业这个名称才应运而生。

在资本主义社会，人们将个人投资或几个人共同投资兴办的经济组织称为企业。

从企业的英文“Enterprise”的原意来看，它代表一种进取和冒险的意识或思想。

因此，企业是有明确的个人来承担亏损责任、并获得利益的经济组织。

2008全国招生统一考试英语试题陕西卷（一）阅读下列五篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

AThey say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon: on foot, on mules(骡子) or by air. We chose the first. Up early; my husband and I and our three children couldn’t w ait to get started. We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.As we set out, I was shocked at how narrow the path was. And I couldn’t help noticing that the other tourists weren’t like us. They had heavy backpacks, water bottles, an d hats. But as usual we were dressed. As the sun rose higher, Arizona’s famous heat seemed to roast(烘烤)us. There was no shade and our legs were aching. We decided to go back, with the girl on my back and the boys far behind. By the time we finally got back, our legs were like jelly.The next day, after we’d had a long rest and a good breakfast, we were ready for another view of the Canyon – by air. After our last walk, this would be the easiest thing in the world.We called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon. But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed(翻转)the plane around, pretending he was going to hit the ground. I shouted, “STOP, TAKE US BACK!” When we finally arrived back on land, once again our legs were like jelly. We hardly spoke as we drove back.As I said, there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon. We never tried the mules, but personally I’d suggest a fourth: buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic. That way, you can see the Canyon, without fear or tiredness.41. Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?A. They made a careful preparation before the tripB. The children were more joyful than their parents.C. Bright Angel Trail was not as lovely as they expected.D. The summer heat prevented them from enjoying the view.42. The underlined expression “Our legs were like jelly” probably means .A. we were weakB. we were unhappyC. we were dissatisfiedD. we were disappointed43. Which of the following best describes their Canyon trip by air?A. It proved to be frightening.B. It was more comfortable.C. It turned out to be exciting.D. It made each of them tired.44. We can infer from the passage that .A. experiencing the Canyon on mules would be the best wayB. one needs to dress less when visiting the Grand Canyon.C. the writer was not serious when she made the suggestion.D. the whole family narrowly escaped from the air accident.BPhotographs are everywhere. They decorate (装饰) the walls of homes and are used in stores for sales of different goods. The news is filled with pictures of fires, floods, and special events. Photos record the beauties of nature. They can also bring things close that are far away. Through photos, people can see wild animals, cities in foreign lands, and even the stars in outer space. Photos also tell stories.Reporting the news through photos is called photojournalism. At times photojournalists tell their stories through a single picture. At other times, they use a group of pictures to tell a story. Each picture is like a chapter in a book, which can do more than record the facts. It can also be a strong force for social change.Jacob Riis was among the first photojournalists. He took pictures of parts of New York City where the poor lived. Riis believed that poverty(贫穷)caused crime, and he used photos to help him prove his point. A few years later, the photos of small children working in factories by Lewis Hine shocked the public. Hine’s pictures helped bring about laws to protect such children.Hundreds of pictures may have to be taken in order to get one or two really good photos. It takes science to have the photo come out clearly and art to make a photo that has a good design and expresses feeling. Photojournalists make an actual record of what they see. A photo, however, can be both a work of art and an actual record. It can record an important event as a beautiful or exciting picture.As historical and artistic documents(文献) , photos can become more important over time. Today photojournalists still have their pictures appear in newspapers and magazines. They also publish(发表) them in books and on the Internet.45. The underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refers to.A. beautiesB. photosC. goodsD. events46. The photos of the small children by Hine show us that photos .A. are also works of artB. are popular ways of reporting newsC. often shock the publicD. can serve as a force for social change47. What can we learn from the passage?A. News with pictures is encouraging.B. Photos help people improve.C. News photos mean history in a sense.D. People prefer reading news with pictures.48. The text is mainly about .A. telling the story through picturesB. decorating the walls of homesC. publishing historical papersD. expressing feeling through picturesCThis was no ordinary class. The students who came together were all science or engineering professors at Cornell University. They had interrupted their research to accept an invitation to take part in an unusual experiment: “an interesting week of poetry.” This class was part of a study to answer the questions: Why is science difficult for many non-science students? What can teachers learn about teaching if they take a class that is not in their field?The students in the poetry class listened to lectures and took notes. They had reading tasks and had to write three short papers. All students noticed one thing – the importance of spoken words. In science and engineering classes, the instructors put tables and drawings on the blackboard. But in this poetry class, the instructors just talked. They didn’t write anything on the board.The scientists and engineers noticed one similarity between science and poetry. In both subjects, students need to find layers (层次) of meaning. Some layers are simple, clean, and on the surface; other layers are deeper and more difficult. This search for different levels of meaning do esn’t happen much in undergraduate(本科) science classes, but it is important later, in graduate school. And it is always important in humanities(人文学科).Both the poetry instructors and their students learned something about teaching from this experience. One poetry instructor, for example, now sees the importance of using careful, clear definitions （定义）when he explains a poem. He also plans to be more informative as he teaches.Most of the scientists agreed on several points. First, humanities classes might help science students to see patterns and decide which information is important. Second, the poetry class was fun. One engineer decided, “We need to change the way we teach engineering to make it an enjoyable experience for students.”But perhaps the most important result of the experience was this: All of the professors began to think about how they teach and how they can teach better.49. What do we know about this unusual class?A. The teachers did lots of writing on the board.B. The teachers were invited to attend several lectures.C. The students were professors from a university.D. The students were studying science and humanities.50. The experiment was designed to find out .A. how to teach the students in the science classB. whether poetry is difficult for science studentsC. what to be taught in the humanities classD. why many humanities students find science hard51. Finding levels of meaning is .A. important for graduate students in humanitiesB. difficult for graduate students in humanitiesC. common for undergraduate students in scienceD. easy for undergraduate students in science.52. What did the science professors learn after the experiment?A. They should change the way they teach.B. A poem could be explained in clear definitions.C. A poetry class could be more informative.D. Their teaching was an enjoyable experience.DRunners in a relay(接力) race pass a stick in one direction. However, merchants passed silk, gold, fruit, and glass along the Silk Road in more than one direction. They earned their living bytraveling the famous Silk Road.The Silk Road was not a simple trading network. It passed through thousands of cities and towns. It started from eastern China, across Central Asia and the Middle East, and ended in the Mediterranean Sea. It was used from about 200 B. C. to about A. D. 1300, when sea travel offered new routes (路线). It was sometimes called the world’s longest highway. However, the Silk Road was made up of many routes, not one smooth path. They passed through what are now 18 countries. The routes crossed mountains and deserts and had many dangers of hot sun, deep snow and even battles. Only experienced traders could return safe.The Silk Road got its name from its most prized product. Silk could be used like money to pay taxes or buy goods. But the traders carried more than just silk. Gold, silver, and glass from Europe were much found in the Middle East and Asia. Horses traded from other areas changed farming practices in China. Indian merchants traded salt and other valuable goods. Chinese merchants traded paper, which produced an immediate effect on the West. Apples traveled from central Asia to Rome. The Chinese had learned to graft (嫁接) different trees together to make new kinds of fruit. They passed this science on to others, including the Romans. The Romans used grafting to grow the apple. Trading along the Silk Road led to world-wide business 2,000 years before the World Wide Web.The people along the Silk Road did not share just goods. They also shared their beliefs. The Silk Road provided pathways for learning, diplomacy(外交), and religion (宗教)53. It’s pro bable that traders along the Silk Road needed .A. to remember the entire trade routeB. to know the making of productsC. to receive certain special trainingD. to deal with a lot of difficulties54. The Silk Road became less important because .A. it was made up of different routesB. silk trading became less popularC. sea travel provided easier routesD. people needed fewer foreign goods55. New technologies could travel along the Silk Road because people .A. learned from one anotherB. shared each other’s beliefsC. traded goods along the routeD. earned their living by traveling56. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Silk Road: Past and PresentB. The Silk Road: East Meets WestC. The Silk Road: Routes Full of DangersD. The Silk Road: Pathways for LearningEDid you know that women’s brains are smaller than men’s? The average women’s brain weighs 10% less than men’s. Since research has shown that the bigger the brain, the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligent than women. Right? Wrong. Men and women always score similarly on intelligence tests, despite the difference in brain size. Why? After years of study, researchers have concluded that it’s what’s inside that matters, not just the size of the brain. The brain consists of “grey matter” and“white matter”. While men have more of the latter, the amount of “thinking” brain is almost exactly the same in both sexes.It has been suggested that smaller brain appears to work faster, perhaps because the two sides of the brain are better connected in women. This means that little girls tend to learn to speak earlier, and that women can understand sorts of information from different sources at the same time. When it comes to talking to the boss on the phone, cooking dinner and keeping an eye on the baby all at the same time, it’s women who come out on top every time.There are other important differences between two sexes. As white matter is the key to spatial(空间的) tasks, men know better where things are in relation to other things. “A great footballer always knows where he is in relation to the other players, and h e knows where to go,” says one researcher. That may explain one of life’s great mysteries: why men refuse to ask for directions … and women often need to!The differences begin when fetuses(胎儿) are about nine weeks old, which can be seen in the action of children as young as one. A boy would try to climb a barrier (障碍物) before him or push it down while a girl would attract help from others. These brain differences also explain the fact that more men take up jobs that require good spatial skills, while more women speech skills. It may all go back to our ancestors(祖先) , among whom women needed speech skills to take care of their babies and men needed spatial skills to hunt, according to one research.If all this disappoints you, it shouldn’t. “The brain changes throughout our lives according to what we do with it.” says a biologist.57. Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?A. Women’s brain is 10% less than men’s.B. Grey matter plays the same role as white matter.C. Grey matter controls thinking in the brain.D. Both sexes have the same amount of white matter.58. What can we infer from the second and third paragraphs?A. Women prefer doing many things at a time.B. Men do better dealing with one job at a time.C. Women do not need to tell directions.D. Men have weaker spatial abilities.59. Which of the following do you agree with according to the fourth paragraph?A. Young boys may be stronger than young girls.B. More women take up jobs requiring speech skills.C. Women may have stronger feelings than men.D. Our ancestors needed more spatial skills.60. What is the writer’s attitude in writing this passage?A. Defensive.B. Persuasive.C. Supportive.D. Objective.41.CAACB DCACD 51. AADCA BCBBD。

Man seemed satisfied in his belief that the Earth was the most important star and therefore it was not necessary to leave it. This belief was made stringer by the Christian Church and in 1543 Copernicus was thrown into prison because he published his revolutionary theory that the Sun was much bigger and the Earth, Moon and other stars circled round it. Although his theory was not accepted, then it started men thinking about the stars again. KeysSection A 1. D 2. A 3. B 4. C 5. BSection B 6. A 7. D 8. C 9. D 10.
