One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap（包装）.
On September 11th ，1958，Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it is.” What an honor！
I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories .I told it over and over how much I loved it!
One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing bad been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as “hopeless”, “pitiful”, and “dying”, which sounded ominous.
Christmas was coming. “Don’t expect any presents this year,” Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. “If your baby brother lives, that’ll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. I’d never seen him cry before.
The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say, “What? He’s all right?” He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home!”
“Thank God!” I heard Mum cry.
From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!

Top lists are lecturing people on everything from “100 places to visit” to “100 books to read”. Aren’t you just tired of being told what to do with your time?
Now you have a list to end all lists!
Take a look at the following two examples from the list of “101 things not to do”:
Swim with Dolphins（海豚）?
Swimming with dolphins is one of the world’s most profitable tourist activities. However, not every dolphin will welcome having their busy, tiring day interrupted by tourists screaming and pushing around them in the water. Worse yet, when dolphins get too near to the boats loaded with tourists, they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers（螺旋桨）.
Here’s a little secret. Dolphins look like smiling at you, but actually they’re just opening their mouths.
Go to See the Mona Lisa?
There must be something about the mysterious（神秘的）smile. The 6 million people who visit the lady in the Louvre every year can’t all be wrong, after all. But they can be quite annoying, standing in front of you, holding up their cameras to prevent you from seeing anything. In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly because you have to stay away from it for security reasons. After queuing for hours, many tourists can remain in front of the painting only for 15 seconds at most.
If the mysterious lady in the picture knew her fate, she wouldn’t just be smiling, she’d be laughing.
So, still long to see the Mona Lisa? If you want to find out more about the list, read 101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die.Visit https://www.doczj.com/doc/8316212740.html, and buy the book at a 20% discount.
60. According to the passage, swimming with dolphins______.
A. is the world’s most popular tourist activity
B. gives fun to both tourists and dolphins
C. will make tourists busy and tired
D. can cause danger to dolphins
61. What does the author think about going to see the Mona Lisa?
A. It is wrong to go and see the mysterious smile.
B. It is not as satisfying as expected.
C. Fifteen seconds in front of the painting is enough.
D. Queuing for hours is worthwhile.
62. The list of “101 things not to do” is made most probably because its author______.
A. thinks it boring to do the things suggested by other lists
B. believes other lists are not humorous enough
C. intends to persuade people to read more lists
D. wants to provide a list different from other lists
63. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To advertise a book.
B. To introduce a website.
C. To comment on popular lists.
D. To recommend tourist activities.
C
There is no better way to enjoy Scottish traditions than going fishing and tasting a little bit of whisky（威士忌）at a quiet place like the Inverlochy Castle. When Queen Victoria visited the castle in 1873, she wrote in her diary, “I never saw a lovelier spot.” And she didn’t even go fishing.
Scotland is not easily defined. In certain moments, this quiet land of lakes and grasses and mountains changes before your very eyes. When evening gently sweeps the hillside into orange light, the rivers, teeming with fish, can turn into streams of gold. As you settle down with just a fishing pole and a basket on the bank of River Orchy, near the Inverlochy Castle, any frustration （烦恼）will float away as gently as the circling water. It’s just you and purple, pink, white flowers, seeking a perfect harmony. If you are a new comer to fishing, learning the basics from a fishing guide may leave you with a lifetime’s fun. For many, fishing is more than a sport; it is an art.
Scotland offers interesting place where you can rest after a long day’s fishing. Set against a wild mountain and hidden behind woodland, the beautiful Inverlochy Castle Hotel below the Nevis is a perfect place to see the beauty of Scotland’s mountains. Ben Nevis is the highest of all British mountains, and reaching its 1343-metre top is a challenge. But it’s not just what goes up that matters; what comes down is unique. More than 900 metres high, on the mountain’s north face, lies an all-important source of pure water. Its name comes from the Gaelic language “usquebaugh” or “water of life”; and it is the single most important ingredient（原料）in Scotland’s best known drink: whisky.
64. The story of Queen Victoria is to show that ______.
A. the queen is rich in tour experience
B. the Castle is a good place to go in Scotland
C. tasting whisky is better than going fishing
D. 1873 is a special year for the queen
65. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?
A. By giving descriptions.
B. By following time order.
C. By analyzing causes.
D. By making comparisons.
66. What is Ben Nevis special for?
A. The Inverlochy Castle Hotel.
B. The beauty of its surroundings.
C. The water from the mountain.
D. The challenge up to its top.
67. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce Scottish traditions to tourists.
B. To show the attractions of Scotland to readers.
C. To explore geographical characteristics of Scotland.
D. To describe the pleasures of life in Scotland.
D
To take the apple as a forbidden fruit is the most unlikely story the Christians（基督教徒）ever cooked up. For them, the forbidden fruit from Eden is evil（邪恶的）. So when Columbus brought the tomato back from South America, a land mistakenly considered to be Eden, everyone jumped to be the obvious conclusion. Wrongly taken as the apple of Eden, the tomato was shut out of the door of Europeans.
What made it particularly terrifying was its similarity to the mandrake, a plant that was thought to have come from Hell（地狱）.What earned the plant its awful reputation was its roots which looked like a dried-up human body occupied by evil spirits. Tough the tomato and the mandrake were quite different except that both had bright red or yellow fruit, the general population considered them one and the same, too terrible to touch.
Cautious Europeans long ignored the tomato, and until the early 1700s most of the Western people continued to drag their feet. In the 1880s, the daughter of a well-known plant expert wrote that the most interesting part of an afternoon tea at her father’s house had been the “introduction of this wonderful new fruit—or is it a vegetable?” As late as the twentieth century some writers still classed tomatoes with mandrakes as an “evil fruit”.
But in the end tomatoes carried the day. The hero of the tomato was an American named Robert Johnson, and when he was publicly going to eat the tomato in 1820, people journeyed for hundreds of miles to watch him drop dead. “What are you afraid of?” he shouted. “I’ll show you fools that these things are good to eat!” Then he bit into the tomato. Some people fainted. But he survived and, according to a local story, set up a tomato-canning factory.
68. The tomato was shut out of the door of early Europeans mainly because ______.
A. it made Christians evil.
B. it was the apple of Eden
C. it came from a forbidden land
D. it was religiously unacceptable
69. What can we infer the underlined part in Paragraph 3?
A. The process of ignoring the tomato slowed down.
B. There was little progress in the study of the tomato.
C. The tomato was still refused in most western countries.
D. Most western people continued to get rid of the tomato.
70. What is the main reason for Robert Johnson to eat the tomato publicly?
A. To make himself a hero.
B. To remove people’s fear of the tomato.
C. To speed up the popularity of the tomato.
D. To persuade people to buy products from his factory
71. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To challenge people’s fixed concepts of the tomato.
B. To give an explanation to people’s dislike of the tomato.
C. To present the change of people’s attitudes to the tomato.
D. To show the process of freeing the tomato from religious influence.
E
In his 1930 essay “Economic Possibilities for Our Grandchildren”, John Keynes, a famous economist, wrote that human needs fall into two classes: absolute needs, which are independent of what others have, and relative needs, which make us feel superior to our fellows. He thought that although relative needs may indeed be insatiable（无止境的）, this is not true of absolute needs.
Keynes was surely correct that only a small part of total spending is decided by the desire for superiority. He was greatly mistaken, however, in seeing this desire as the only source of insatiable demands.
Decisions to spend are also driven by ideas of quality which can influence the demands for almost all goods, including even basic goods like food. When a couple goes out for an anniversary dinner, for example, the thought of feeling superior to others probably never comes to them. Their goal is to share a special meal that stands out from other meals.
There are no obvious limits to the escalation of demand for quality. For example, Porsche, a famous car producer, has a model which was considered perhaps the best sport car on the market. Priced at over $120,000, it handles perfectly well and has great speed acceleration. But in 2004, the producer introduced some changes which made the model slightly better in handling and acceleration. People who really care about cars find these small improvements exciting. To get them, however, they must pay almost four times the price.
By placing the desire to be superior to others at the heart of his description of insatiable demands, Keynes actually reduced such demands. However, the desire for higher quality has no natural limits.
72. According to the passage, John Keynes believed that______.
A. desire is the root of both absolute and relative needs
B. absolute needs come from our sense of superiority
C. relative needs alone lead to insatiable demands
D. absolute needs are stronger than relative needs
73. What do we know about the couple in Paragraph 3?
A. They want to show their superiority.
B. They find specialty important to meals.
C. Their demands for food are not easily satisfied.
D. Their choice of dinner is related to ideas of quality.
74. What does the underlined word “escalation” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Understanding.
B. Increase.
C. Difference.
D. Study.
75. The author of the passage argues that ______.
A. absolute needs have no limits
B. demands for quality are not insatiable
C. human desires influence ideas of quality
D. relative needs decide most of our spending

Today I'm going to talk about the umbrella. We all know that we put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But the umbrella was not invented as a protection against rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun. Nobody knows who first invented it. But the umbrella was used in very ancient times. When it first appeared in Egypt, it was used only by the rich as a symbol of their power. In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella. During the middle ages, however, the umbrella almost disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the 16th century and later in France and in England. Gradually, most European countries began to use the umbrella. During all this time, umbrellas have not changed much in style, but they do become much lighter.

二、英语知识运用
第一节单项填空
21.【答案】B
【解析】问者“约翰，我们什么时候再次见面？是周四还是周五？”从回答者的话里可以看出，那时他已经离开去伦敦了，所以不管是周四还是周五，都不可能见面答案为neither。
【考点】代词用法
22.【答案】B
【解析】问者关切询问出了什么事，回答者说“我参加了一个考试，我正在等结果”用一般过去时极少数考生可能会不小心选成C，但过去完成时连过去的基点都没有，无从谈起。
【考点】时态和情景交际
23.【答案】A
【解析】用现在分词完成时的被动形式，代替原因状语，表示前一个动作导致了错过一场好电影这个句子完整的就是“Because I had been asked to work overtime that evening.”
【考点】分词
24.【答案】D
【解析】“山姆已经被指定代替乔治的位子，担当工程部的经理”在人名、称呼语或头衔的名词前，要用到零冠词“/”后一个空是固定搭配take the (one's) place代替。
【考点】这道题冠词
25.【答案】C
【解析】“你非要现在打断我吗？你难道没看见我在打电话吗？”must表说话者极不耐烦和生气的语气。
【考点】情态动词，无难度
26.【答案】A
【解析】“城市博物馆的现代艺术展已经被取消了”A“真遗憾”；B“没关系”；C“我已经知道了”；D“完全没有一点意思”从情景交际的角度来说，B\ C\ D三个选项缺乏使之成立的上下文语言环境而只有A才是人际交流中顺其自然的正常反应再加上“Oh, no!”表达了说话者极度失望的情绪，故选A。
【考点】情景交际
27.【答案】B
【解析】“在遭受洪水袭击的地区，食物供给快完了我们必须赶在(食物)一无所剩之前立刻行动起来”从句子后半句我们可以知道受灾灾区食物还有少许，还没有到山穷水尽的地步，只是所剩已经不多所以我们选用现在进行时表示“即将”另外，run out这个词组没有被动语态形式故不选D。
【考点】时态
28.【答案】A
【解析】“我们将在半个小时之内举行会议，会议作出的决定将会对我们公司的未来产生影响”从第一句话就可以看出会议尚未举行，所以所谓的决议也还没有形成所以选项里，只有动词不定式才可以表示将来注意，因为后句主语是decision，故使用动词不定式的被动形式。
【考点】动词不定式
29.【答案】D
【解析】“销售经理是一个职位，在这个职位上，交流能力和销售能力一样重要”先行词position在从句中充当的成分应是“on this position”，故选择where。
【考点】定语从句
30.【答案】C
【解析】“教练，我能够继续我的训练吗？”“不行，因为你膝盖的伤还没有痊愈”后句是现在完成时，要选A或者B，后句要变成肯定句，并使用一般现在时“Sorry, you can’t before you recover from the knee injury.”
【考点】原因状语从句
31.【答案】A
【解析】“在你辞职之前，请好好考虑你家人对于你的决定的感受”此题容易让考生选成B此处不选现在分词，因为根据句意的情景，consider不表目的、伴随、原因……，而就是一个祈使句，表示一种规劝、建议的语气。
【考点】祈使句
32.【答案】B
【解析】“早在克里斯多夫?哥伦布穿越大西洋的80多年前，郑和就航行到了非洲东海岸”本句特意强调时间状语，强调郑和同志远航非洲的了不起去掉“It was…that…”，本句依然成立，故此句就是一强调句“80 years before Christopher Columbus crossed the Atlantic, Zheng He sailed to East Africa.”
【考点】特殊句式之强调句
33.【答案】C
【解析】“校长不会同意转科的，他甚至也根本不会考虑这个问题”前句否定句＋（后句）nor／neither＋不完全倒装。
【考点】倒装句
34.【答案】D
【解析】“通过好些年的研究，孩子们早期睡眠的问题在他们长大后很有可能会延续的证据已经找到了”后句其实就是对evidence的进一步解释，是名词性从句里的同位语从句故只能选that。
【考点】名词性从句的同位语从句
35.【答案】A
【解析】“瞧，你的梦中女神来了去请她跳支舞吧”“我不确定该不该这么做也，要是她拒绝我咋办啊？”此处我们选择A，表达说话者又想上前又怕被拒绝的矛盾、迟疑和犹豫的心态B“干嘛是我？”一般用于不情愿接受任务或者悲叹命运不公时使用；C “非常乐意”，一般用于乐意提供帮助；D“那又怎样？”一般表示语气上对既成事实的一种让步。
【考点】情景交际
第二节完形填空
36.【答案】C
【解析】我种植花草的意图不是源自对大自然的热爱而是为了使父母烦。不定式常表目的，下一句的to annoy my parents也表明此处应选intention，“意图；目的”。
37.【答案】D
【解析】从下文所知，我的意图是为了使父母烦。Annoy，使某人烦。
38.【答案】A
【解析】因为父母不喜欢花草，枫树虽美，在他们眼中这未必是自然界的杰作，所以带有疑惑（with doubt）。Appreciation,欣赏；感激。
39.【答案】C
【解析】金黄色的枫叶在父母看来是垃圾，是需要清扫的东西。“something else to clean up!”译为“打扫点其他东西（不要打扫这些树叶）”
40.【答案】D
【解析】opposite to whatever my parents did与我父母做的任何事情相反，说明了作者的逆反。
41.【答案】C
【解析】upsetting“令人烦恼的；令人心神不安的”。如果他们觉得种花草很烦人，我偏要种。

46.【答案】A
【解析】父亲觉得我种的玫瑰碍事，很生气，所以会对我shouted。
47.【答案】B
【解析】troublesome在此处意为“困难的”。父亲发现绕过花园去车道比较困难。

【解析】句意to my mother’s displeasure使我母亲不高兴的是。母亲不喜欢花草，我把我种的玫瑰插到她花瓶里，她当然会不高兴。
49.【答案】C

50.【答案】A
【解析】尽管他们不喜欢，我却继续种我的花草。
51.【答案】C
【解析】continued与kept on planting意思一致。
52.【答案】C
【解析】respond to对…作出回应。我的花草生长、开花，是对我付出的关爱作出的回应。53.【答案】D

55.【答案】D
【解析】现在我可以说是我对于大自然的爱才使我成了一名真正的园艺师。我在为了对抗父母而种植花草的过程中真喜欢上了大自然，喜欢上了园艺业，最终取得了今天的成就。
三、阅读理解
56.【答案】A
【解析】细节题。由第二段第一句On September 11th, 1958, Mum gave birth to（生下）Richard可知之。
57.【答案】D
【解析】词义猜测题。和hopeless、pitiful、dying含义一致的只有D项Fearful“可怕的”。
58.【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。由第四段中的As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears.可推之。
59.【答案】C
【解析】主旨大意题。文章一开头就明确提到One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift。按时间顺序组织的文章，主旨大意往往在第一段或最后一段体现出来，本文在第一段。
B篇【语篇解读】这是一篇广告，介绍了“101 things not to do”这本书的部分内容，并吸引读者去购买。
60.【答案】D
【解析】细节题。由第四段的第三句Worse still... they could get caught up in ropes and killed by propellers.可知之。
61.【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。由倒数第三段的第四句In fact, it is hard for you to see the painting clearly... for 15 seconds at most.可推之。
62.【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。由文章开头的两句话Aren’t you just tired of being told what to do with your time? (你是否对被要求做某些事感到厌倦/烦？)和Now you have a list to end all lists!可以推断出“101 things not to do”这本书是与以往不同的。虽有借踩踏其他名单而抬高自己之嫌，但是这确是他为给101 Things NOT to Do打广告这一目的服务的。
63.【答案】A
【解析】主旨大意题。从“If you want to find out more about the list, read 101 Things NOT to Do Before You Die. Visit https://www.doczj.com/doc/8316212740.html, and buy the book at a 20% discount.”可知，作者终极目的是广告宣传，要把读者拉到他的网站来买书，还提供八折购书。
64.【答案】B
【解析】细节题。第一段是提纲挈领介绍苏格兰高地威廉堡的两大不可错过的事，而列举维多利亚女王的事例，完全是为了说明威廉堡是个好地方，而且，女王甚至还没有体会垂钓之乐，都写下了“I never saw a lovelier spot”，可见该地确实是值得去的好地儿。
65.【答案】A
【解析】A“描写”；B“按照时间顺序书写”；C“分析原因”；D“作比较的写作手法”。第二段描绘了威廉堡的渔趣，在夕阳下垂钓的美景，是描写手法。
66.【答案】C
【解析】细节题。根据第三段的四、五两句...But it’s not just what goes up that matters; what comes down is unique...lies an all-important source of water（译文;但是不仅仅是上山/爬山重要；下山的东西/泉水也很独特。在山的北面900多米高处是纯洁之水的重要来源）。该题干的special为定位词，经语义转换后，可在原文扫描（scan）到unique 与其近义，从而确定应在unique所在句子前后分析答案。
67.【答案】B
【解析】写作意图题。C项“探究苏格兰地理特征”和A项“介绍苏格兰风俗”错得比较明显，其他2个就要仔细比较了。注意这两个单词B项的“show the attraction”，D项的“describe”。表面上作者确是在描写苏格兰生活的悠闲生活，并非只是描写生活在苏格兰的乐趣而已。更深层次的目的是他分别用了两段、浓墨重彩给游人介绍两个威廉堡最独特的吸引渔趣和泉水酿的酒。这两个事、物是如此独特，足以让威廉堡与众不同。所以选D。
68.【答案】D
【解析】细节题。基督教不被欧洲接受是由于它在宗教上不可接受。根据第一段第一句To take the apple as a forbidden fruit is the most unlikely story the Christians（基督教徒）ever cooked up.（把西红柿当做禁果是基督教徒曾捏造出来的，是最不可能/最离谱的说法）和最后一句Wrongly taken as the apple of Eden, the tomato was shut out of the door of Europeans.（被错误的当做伊甸园的禁果，西红柿被关在欧洲大门外/不被欧洲接受）。
69.【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据Cautious Europeans long ignored the tomato, and until the early 1700s most of the Western people continued to drag their feet.该句译为谨慎的欧洲人长期忽视西红柿，直到18世纪早期大部分欧洲人继续drag their feet。Continue一词表明是在继续ignore（忽略）西红柿。这里指在对tomato的了解方面进展缓慢。所以选C,即大部分欧洲国家refuse（拒绝接受）西红柿。D项错误在于get rid of表示to throw away or destroy something you do not want any more去掉原来你拥有的东西，而欧洲人在此之前一直忽略西红柿，所以谈不上拥有。
70.【答案】B
【解析】细节题。由第四段的三、四两句“What are you afraid of?”he shouted. “I’ll show you fools that these things are good to eat!”可知之。
71.【答案】C
【解析】写作意图题。本文主要是介绍西方人对于西红柿的认识的转变过程。A、B 项可以轻易排除。C项是说展现人们对于西红柿态度的变化，D项是说展现西红柿如何摆脱宗教影响的过程。如何排除D项根据第一段，宗教的确在西红柿被人们拒绝的血泪史里有着梦魇一般的作用，但是并非是唯一的影响因素。而且第三段更是讲解了人们对于西红柿态度开始动摇，虽然“Cautious Europeans long ignored the tomato”，但也有著名的种植专家的女儿写下的怀疑，这些都是实实在在的人的态度的“变化”，并没有刻意去描写宗教的影响；在最后一段里，真正拯救和吃下西红柿的人还是个美国人，他用自己勇敢的行为，给那些前来观看他死亡的人以有力一击。而在这些故事的描写中，也和宗教就没有太大关系了。而题目问的是the main purpose of the passage（这篇文章的主要目的），文章的主要目的应该建立在这篇文章主旨大意的基础上，宗教的影响仅仅是文章的一部分，并非贯穿文章的“线索”；而且宗教的影响也只是人们对对西红柿态度转变的一部分。也就是说，C项包含了D项，比D项更有概括性。
72.【答案】C
【解析】细节题。由第一段的最后一句中的He thought that although relative needs may indeed be insatiable可知之。同学们要注意，这个题考的不是作者的观点，而是凯恩斯的观点。
73.【答案】D。
【解析】推理判断题。对外出吃饭的选择与人们对（食物）质量的观念有关。根据第三段的第一句Decisions to spend are also driven by ideas of quality which can influence the demands for almost all goods（消费的决定也受到质量观念的驱使，质量观念能影响对于几乎所有商品的需求）。这句话为第三段的主题句，而后面以夫妻结婚周年时外出吃饭为例就是为了支撑主题句的。
【提示】注意一个自然段的主题句，就是一个自然段大多数句子都围绕它来阐述的句子。主题句常位于一个自然段的开头或结尾（有时在段落中间；有时没有主题句，需自己归纳）。
74.【答案】B
【解析】词义猜测题。增长根据第四段举的例子可知，人们对于高质量的需求是不断增长的。如第四段提到People who really care about cars find these small improvements exciting. （关注车的人发现这些小的改进也令人兴奋）
75.【答案】A
【解析】主旨大意题。按凯恩斯的观点，人类需求分为“绝对需求”和“相对需求”。从文章第一段可知“He thought that although relative needs may indeed be insatiable (无止境的) , this is not true of absolute needs.”（词组be not true of...对…不适用、不符合…）凯恩斯认为相对需求是无止境的。作者所做的就是辩驳他的论点，应是绝对需求无限，相对需求则和生活质量有关，是可控的、有条件性的和有限的，故选A。
四、写作
第一节短文改错
Dear Grandpa,
How are you those（these）days? I have been missing you very much after（since）I went to college a year ago. Whenever I think of the old days, I feel very happily（happy）.
I still remember when I was（∧a）child, you always held me in your arms and told me stories till I fall（fell）asleep. We often went to the fields to enjoy the pleasant view there. You told me the name（names）of different plants and their characteristics. Gradually, I became interesting（interested）in biology and chose to learn biology when I entered into （\）the college. Now my friend Ann, together with me, are（is）going to do field study and the findings will be use（used）as materials for our research. Since we’ll do the study in our hometown, I hope to see you by then.
Yours,
Daisy 第二节书面表达
I have a book, whose name is The Call of the Wild. I bought it in Xinhua book store, which cost me 30 yuan. The book, whose cover is black and green, contains 300 copies. Having read the story for more than three times, I am always touched by the dog’s experience and characters.
From the dog Bark’s growth, I realize that each living being was born to adapt to nature, including wild and competition. Since I want to read another work written by Jack London, I would like to exchange this book for another book called White Fang by Jack London. If anybody is willing to exchange the book with me, please contact me on 1871234567 or Email me at 1234567@https://www.doczj.com/doc/8316212740.html,. I’d appreciate it if we can share books together. I am looking forward to your reply.
2014年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试（重庆卷） 英语答案解析 一、单项填空 1.【答案】C 【解析】本题的是代词辨析。anything任何事情；something某些事情，重要人物；nothing什么也没有，没有事情；everything所有的事情。句意：微笑不要我们花任何东西，但是却会给我们很多。本题中的关键词是but说明上下文之间是转折关系，所选之词要和后面的much表示相反的意思。故C正确。 【考点】代词辨析。 2.【答案】B 【解析】本题的是交际用语。A没关系（用来回答对方的道歉）；B我很高兴要做某事…（后面常常和but 连用，表示委婉地拒绝）；C遇见你很高兴；D我找不到任何理由。句意：—为什么不在这里多待一会?—我想多待一会，可是我真的必须得走了。本句的关键词是but，说明本句表示的是委婉地拒绝对方。同时在to 后面省略了stay here a little longer。故B正确。 【考点】交际用语。 3.【答案】C 【解析】本题的是情态动词意义辨析。Can’t不可能；做不到；dare not不敢；needn’t 不必；may not也许不；句意：我已经点了一些披萨，所以当我们很累地到家的使用，不必担心做饭的问题。Need既可以作为情态动词，也可以作为行为动词。当它作为情态动词的使用常常用于疑问句和否定句中，表示“不必”。根据句意说明C正确。 【考点】情态动词。 4.【答案】A 【解析】本题的是时态题中的一个常考的用法。在时间状语从句和条件状语从句中，常常使用一般现在时代替将来时。本句中的连词before引导的就是一个时间状语从句，所以使用一般现在时代替将来时。句意：在你忘记之前最好把他的电话号码写下来。故A正确。 【考点】时态。 5.【答案】B 【解析】本题的是非谓语动词中分词做定语的用法。本句中的动词return与前面的名词cameras构成逻辑上的被动关系，所以使用过去分词短语在句中做定语来修饰cameras，从语法作用上来说相当于一个定语从句which are returned…。D项中使用的是不定式的被动形式，表示的将来要发生的事情。句意：这位生产商经

During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport. He reported the case to the police and then sat there，lost and lonely in strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one. Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can（垃圾桶）that had been left out on the footpath. My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.

2014年高考英语重庆卷阅读理解E篇原文 1 2 E It's generally believed that people act the way they do because 3 of their personalities and attitudes. They recycle their garbage because 4 they care about the environment. They pay $5 for a caramel brulée latte 5 because they like expensive coffee drinks. 6 It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions 7 (性情), but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, 8 as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bem, by observing our own 9 behavior. We can be strangers to ourselves. If we knew our own minds, why 10 would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our 11 minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the 12 environment or like lattes. Actually, we often need to look to our behavior 13 to figure out who we are. 14 Moreover, we don't just use our behavior to learn about our 15 particular types of character—we infer characters that weren't there 16 before. Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us, which 17 we fail to recognize. Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors 18 would disapprove if we didn't. Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress 19 the people around us. We should not mistakenly believe that we always 20 behave as a result of some inner disposition. 21 Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make, people 22 become what they do, though it may not be in compliance (符合) with their 23 true desires. Therefore, we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice: 24 "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend 25 to be." 26 52. According to the passage, personalities and attitudes are 27 commonly believed to . 28 A. determine one's behavior 29
