4.[D] make it work in our program就是apply the theory to the program,所以答案為D。
5.[C] apply for a loan(申請貸款)也就是申請經(jīng)濟(jì)方面的援助,所以答案為C。
6.[B]從space shuttle可以判斷是太空飛行,由此可以排除A,C,從another routine mission可以排除D。
7.[A]due也就意味著是deadline,既然只有兩天的時(shí)間,說明the deadline is drawing near。
8.[C]run regularly就是運(yùn)動(dòng)的 一種方式,所以答案為C。

10.[C]it needs a new paint job說明車看上去很舊,結(jié)合it seems to run well可以判斷答案為C。

13.[B] 本題為信息再現(xiàn)。文章中提到the average negotiators tried to persuade by giving a lot reasons, 與B 相同。
14.[D]文中提到sharks sometime starve,說明C不對,sharks don't eat as much as people think說明他們吃的比人們想象得要少,即D。
15.[B]文章最后提到if you go into a shark's territory and threaten it, it might try to bite you說明答案為B,即鯊魚在感到威脅時(shí)才會(huì)向人類進(jìn)攻。
16.[A] 文章的主題要看文章主要內(nèi)容以及敘述方式。文章提到了狗,但不是作為朋友提到,B可以排除。從文章所敘述的鯊魚在什么情況下才向人進(jìn)攻來看,鯊魚攻擊人類并非出于本性,C不對。文章開始提到人們一般都認(rèn)為鯊魚很危險(xiǎn),而正文又介紹鯊魚在很多情況下對人并無威脅,所以答案為A,即本篇文章試圖說明鯊魚并不是如人們所想象的那么可怕。
17.[A]從humans going to live on the Mars 和it might solve the problem of overcrowding on the earth可以判斷科學(xué)家們對火星感興趣的原因是人們有可能要移民到火星。
18.[D]If the atmosphere were like that of the earth, this might be possible說明如果人們要在火星上居住,其大氣就應(yīng)該改變。
19.[D]既然nitrogen is four fifths of the air we breathe(占我們呼吸的空氣的5分之4),那就說明氮是我們所呼吸的空氣的主要成分。

Part II Reading comprehension
21.[B] 文章第二段中提到,導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)能夠給司機(jī)提供精確的運(yùn)行提示,既然能如此,也就能夠幫助解決大城市中所存在的交通問題。由此可以推斷,答案應(yīng)該是B。
22.[A] 本題考查的是司機(jī)運(yùn)用導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的方式。文章第5段提到On most systems, a driver enters a desired address, 說明司機(jī)要想找到最佳的駛車路線,只需輸入目的地即可,答案為A。
23.[C] 文章的后半部介紹了幾種車型所用導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的不同之處,一是the driver's request for a directions, 一是the way it presents the driving instructions,由此可以判斷選項(xiàng)B,D不對。從Most systems are basically identical可以判斷,無論什么樣的導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī),其工作原理大體相同,即C。
24.[B] 文章第三段介紹了導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的工作原理,一是通過天線接收衛(wèi)星上發(fā)送的信息,文章第四段又介紹了這種信息要與計(jì)算機(jī)內(nèi)所儲(chǔ)存的地圖結(jié)合(combined with a map database)。由此可以判斷答案為B。本題回答的是導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的工作原理,而沒有區(qū)分什么類型的導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī),這就說明,導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的工作原理是相同的,因此,由本題可以推斷23題答案為C。
25.[B] 各導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng)通過不同的方式給司機(jī)提供指示,D與你相同,現(xiàn)象不是目的,所以不對。導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)借助global positioning system的幫助能夠以這么多種方式為司機(jī)提供幫助,也正說明了其優(yōu)越性,所以答案 B。
26.[A] 文章第一段通過假設(shè)的方式,展示了作者心目中學(xué)生可能有的看法,從most students would tear it apart, offering a long list of complaints …可以判斷學(xué)生認(rèn)為世界環(huán)境狀況不容樂觀,所以答案為A。
27[ C] 文章第一段最后一句The surprise is how good things are, not how bad似乎是說"人口的急劇增長與生產(chǎn)的擴(kuò)大對環(huán)境帶來了正面影響,但是,從下文的敘述方式來看,作者所欲說明的應(yīng)該是"對世界環(huán)境的影響不大"。文章只是說the environment has not been ruined, raw materials have not run out, environmental problems ought to be solvable。從否定形式的使用可以判斷,作者所強(qiáng)調(diào)的顯然不是正面影響。
28.[D] 文章倒數(shù)第二段people have looked for new sources of supply, …. For this reason prices for energy and for minerals have fallen in real terms 說明從長遠(yuǎn)來看,價(jià)格處于下降趨勢的原因之一應(yīng)該是總能找到新的能源,即D。
29.[B] 本題考查的是具體事例與要說明觀點(diǎn)之間的關(guān)系。文章最后一句If no one owns the resource concerned, no one has an interest in conserving it or fostering it, fish is the best example of this.說明,魚源變少的原因應(yīng)該是它們不為任何實(shí)體所擁有,即B。
30.[A] 文章最后一段第一句It is where prices and markets do not operate properly that this benign trend begins to stumble, and the genuine problems arise說明要解決環(huán)境問題,首要的是要使市場運(yùn)作正常,即A。
31.[B] 本題為同義轉(zhuǎn)述題。文章第二段some thought it was unfair to minority children,說明有人認(rèn)為智商測試對少數(shù)民族孩子不公平,也就使對少數(shù)民族學(xué)生的歧視,即B。
32.[C] 訴訟中提到"政府禁止IQ測試是對他們(黑人兒童)的歧視,這樣以來他們的子女就不可能進(jìn)入特殊班級受教育"。指責(zé)其不公,自然是要取消之,所以答案為C。
33.[A] 從常識(shí)來判斷,美國白人一般都認(rèn)為黑人等少數(shù)民族的孩子愚鈍不可教,因此不能進(jìn)入特殊教育班級。智商的測試可以讓人們清楚兒童在學(xué)校成績不好到底是智力的問題還使其它原因(to know whether it is because he or she is of low intelligence, or whether some other factor is the cause),這樣就有可能排除智力上的因素,所以對緩和種族沖突會(huì)有好處,能表達(dá)此意思的是選項(xiàng)A。
34.[D] 作者在提到兒童收養(yǎng)問題后指出surely good will on the part of all of us is needed,顯然是在說cross-racial adoption is to be advocated。
35.[D] 對于具體事例的作用,一般可以看事例前面總括性的陳述。本篇文章作者在介紹兒童收養(yǎng)問題前提到Unfortunately, intellectual level seems to be a sensitive subject,and what the law allows us to do varies from time to time. 然后說這種情況在其他場合也出現(xiàn),如兒童收養(yǎng)。顯然兒童收養(yǎng)問題所要說明的也是對于一些敏感的問題,法律所允許我們所多的不同的時(shí)期也不同。開始白人家庭黑人兒童是受鼓勵(lì)的,到后來又變得generally unpopular,說明人們的觀點(diǎn)會(huì)發(fā)生變化,即D。
36.[A] 根據(jù)文章第一般寫作技法第一段不會(huì)結(jié)論,因此B不對,段中however的使用說明第一段所展示的使兩種觀點(diǎn),答案為A。
37.[B]文章第一段所展示的第一種觀點(diǎn)substituted in their place superficial relationships with passing acquaintances.說明人們以往是認(rèn)為城市居民不可能發(fā)展長久的友誼。
38.[C] 文章第三段提到If neighbors are strangers to one another, they are less likely to sweep the sidewalk of an elderly couple living next door or keep an eye out for young trouble makers. 說明鄰里之間很可能出現(xiàn)彼此都不關(guān)心的狀況,即C。
39.[C]文章最后提到,大城市里居民比小城鎮(zhèn)居民更見多識(shí)廣,to be tolerant of nontraditional religious groups,說明社區(qū)越大,人們越容易變得包容,思想也越開朗,所以答案為C。
40.[A] 本篇文章對比了大城市與小城鎮(zhèn)種人際關(guān)系,但并沒有強(qiáng)調(diào)在大城市中居住的優(yōu)越,B不對;文中提到了很多城市居住的負(fù)面影響,顯然C也不對;文章第二段中提到nor are residents of large communities any likelier to display psychological symptoms of stress or alienation,說明D也不對。由此可以判斷答案為A。

Part IV Error Correction

Passage 1
Nilrikman and others of the halfway research group have done some research into the differences between average and good negotiators. They found negotiators with the good trait record and studied them in action. They compared them with another group of average negotiators and found that there was no difference in the time that the two groups spent on planning their strategy. However, there were some significant differences on other points. The average negotiators thought in terms of the present, but the good negotiators took a long-time review. They made lots of suggestions and considered twice the number of the alternatives. The average negotiators set their objectives as single points. We hope to get two dollars, for example. The good negotiators set their objectives in terms of range, which they might formulate as "We hope to get two dollars, but if we get one dollar and fifty, it will be all right.". The average negotiators tried to persuade by giving lots of reasons. They use a lot of different arguments. The good negotiators didn't give many reasons. They just repeated the same ones. They also did more summarizing and reviewing, checking they were understood correctly.
11.What do good negotiators and average negotiators have in common?
12.According to the speaker, what would good negotiators do?
13.According to the speaker, what does the average negotiator usually do?
Passage 2
To most of us sharks are the most dangerous fish in the sea and they attack humans. However, according to Doctor Clark, who has studied the behavior of sharks for twelve years, humans are not normally on the shark's menu. What do sharks feed on, mainly fish and other sea animals? Doctor Clark also found that sharks don't eat as much food as people think. For instance, a nine-year-old shark only needs two pound of food a day to keep healthy. But she says, sharks sometimes starve and at other times they fill themselves with what they have killed. Around the world, there are only about one hundred shark attacks on humans each year, ten of which proved fatal. But consider this, in the US alone, about three million people are bitten by dogs each year. Of these, thirty people die. If sharks bite you, says Doctor Clark, the reason is usually because of the mistake you ****natural food. For example, say you went underwater-fishing and saw a shark, you could be in trouble. The shark might go for the injured fish you had attacked and take a bite of you at the same time. If you go into a shark's territory and threaten it, it might try to bite you. That's because sharks are territorial and tend to guard their territory. Like dogs, they protect the area they think is their own.
14.What does the passage say about the eating behavior of sharks?
15.When might a shark attach humans?
16.What do we learn from the passage about sharks?
Passage 3
Science fiction writers have often imagined humans going to live on the Mars. But these days, scientists are taking the idea seriously. It has a great deal to recommend it, since it might solve the problem of overcrowding on the earth. But obviously, it would not be worth making the effort unless people could live there naturally. If the atmosphere were like that of the earth, this might be possible. But in fact it is mostly carbonoxidite. Apart from that, there are other problems to be overcome. For example, the temperature would have to be raised from 6 degrees below zero to 15 degrees above it. Scientists who study Mars have laid down the program that they can follow. To begin with, they will have to find out whether life has ever existed on the planet of Mars in the past. Secondly they will have to make a reliable map of its surface. And finally, they will have to make a list of the gases. Above all, they will have to discover how much nitrogen it possesses. Since nitrogen is four fifths of the air we breathe, they are surprising optimistic about raising the temperature on Mars and believe it could be down in hundred years. It will take a bit longer, though, to transform the atmosphere so that human beings could live there. Scientists estimate this will take one hundred thousand years.
17.Why are scientists interested in Mars?
18.What is the one of the things that must be done if a man can live on Mars?
19.Why do scientist want to find out whether there is sufficient nitrogen on Mars?
20.What is the prospect of people living on Mars?

16.[A] 文章的主題要看文章主要內(nèi)容以及敘述方式。文章提到了狗,但不是作為朋友提到,B可以排除。從文章所敘述的鯊魚在什么情況下才向人進(jìn)攻來看,鯊魚攻擊人類并非出于本性,C不對。文章開始提到人們一般都認(rèn)為鯊魚很危險(xiǎn),而正文又介紹鯊魚在很多情況下對人并無威脅,所以答案為A,即本篇文章試圖說明鯊魚并不是如人們所想象的那么可怕。
17.[A]從humans going to live on the Mars 和it might solve the problem of overcrowding on the earth可以判斷科學(xué)家們對火星感興趣的原因是人們有可能要移民到火星。
18.[D]If the atmosphere were like that of the earth, this might be possible說明如果人們要在火星上居住,其大氣就應(yīng)該改變。
19.[D]既然nitrogen is four fifths of the air we breathe(占我們呼吸的空氣的5分之4),那就說明氮是我們所呼吸的空氣的主要成分。
20.[B]本題為細(xì)節(jié)再現(xiàn)題,this will take one hundred thousand years與C相同。
Part II Reading comprehension
21.[B] 文章第二段中提到,導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)能夠給司機(jī)提供精確的運(yùn)行提示,既然能如此,也就能夠幫助解決大城市中所存在的交通問題。由此可以推斷,答案應(yīng)該是B。
22.[A] 本題考查的是司機(jī)運(yùn)用導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的方式。文章第5段提到On most systems, a driver enters a desired address, 說明司機(jī)要想找到最佳的駛車路線,只需輸入目的地即可,答案為A。
23.[C] 文章的后半部介紹了幾種車型所用導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的不同之處,一是the driver's request for a directions, 一是the way it presents the driving instructions,由此可以判斷選項(xiàng)B,D不對。從Most systems are basically identical可以判斷,無論什么樣的導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī),其工作原理大體相同,即C。
24.[B] 文章第三段介紹了導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的工作原理,一是通過天線接收衛(wèi)星上發(fā)送的信息,文章第四段又介紹了這種信息要與計(jì)算機(jī)內(nèi)所儲(chǔ)存的地圖結(jié)合(combined with a map database)。由此可以判斷答案為B。本題回答的是導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的工作原理,而沒有區(qū)分什么類型的導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī),這就說明,導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)的工作原理是相同的,因此,由本題可以推斷23題答案為C。
25.[B] 各導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng)通過不同的方式給司機(jī)提供指示,D與你相同,現(xiàn)象不是目的,所以不對。導(dǎo)航計(jì)算機(jī)借助global positioning system的幫助能夠以這么多種方式為司機(jī)提供幫助,也正說明了其優(yōu)越性,所以答案 B。
26.[A] 文章第一段通過假設(shè)的方式,展示了作者心目中學(xué)生可能有的看法,從most students would tear it apart, offering a long list of complaints …可以判斷學(xué)生認(rèn)為世界環(huán)境狀況不容樂觀,所以答案為A。
27[ C] 文章第一段最后一句The surprise is how good things are, not how bad似乎是說"人口的急劇增長與生產(chǎn)的擴(kuò)大對環(huán)境帶來了正面影響,但是,從下文的敘述方式來看,作者所欲說明的應(yīng)該是"對世界環(huán)境的影響不大"。文章只是說the environment has not been ruined, raw materials have not run out, environmental problems ought to be solvable。從否定形式的使用可以判斷,作者所強(qiáng)調(diào)的顯然不是正面影響。
28.[D] 文章倒數(shù)第二段people have looked for new sources of supply, …. For this reason prices for energy and for minerals have fallen in real terms 說明從長遠(yuǎn)來看,價(jià)格處于下降趨勢的原因之一應(yīng)該是總能找到新的能源,即D。
29.[B] 本題考查的是具體事例與要說明觀點(diǎn)之間的關(guān)系。文章最后一句If no one owns the resource concerned, no one has an interest in conserving it or fostering it, fish is the best example of this.說明,魚源變少的原因應(yīng)該是它們不為任何實(shí)體所擁有,即B。
30.[A] 文章最后一段第一句It is where prices and markets do not operate properly that this benign trend begins to stumble, and the genuine problems arise說明要解決環(huán)境問題,首要的是要使市場運(yùn)作正常,即A。
31.[B] 本題為同義轉(zhuǎn)述題。文章第二段some thought it was unfair to minority children,說明有人認(rèn)為智商測試對少數(shù)民族孩子不公平,也就使對少數(shù)民族學(xué)生的歧視,即B。
32.[C] 訴訟中提到"政府禁止IQ測試是對他們(黑人兒童)的歧視,這樣以來他們的子女就不可能進(jìn)入特殊班級受教育"。指責(zé)其不公,自然是要取消之,所以答案為C。
33.[A] 從常識(shí)來判斷,美國白人一般都認(rèn)為黑人等少數(shù)民族的孩子愚鈍不可教,因此不能進(jìn)入特殊教育班級。智商的測試可以讓人們清楚兒童在學(xué)校成績不好到底是智力的問題還使其它原因(to know whether it is because he or she is of low intelligence, or whether some other factor is the cause),這樣就有可能排除智力上的因素,所以對緩和種族沖突會(huì)有好處,能表達(dá)此意思的是選項(xiàng)A。
34.[D] 作者在提到兒童收養(yǎng)問題后指出surely good will on the part of all of us is needed,顯然是在說cross-racial adoption is to be advocated。
35.[D] 對于具體事例的作用,一般可以看事例前面總括性的陳述。本篇文章作者在介紹兒童收養(yǎng)問題前提到Unfortunately, intellectual level seems to be a sensitive subject,and what the law allows us to do varies from time to time. 然后說這種情況在其他場合也出現(xiàn),如兒童收養(yǎng)。顯然兒童收養(yǎng)問題所要說明的也是對于一些敏感的問題,法律所允許我們所多的不同的時(shí)期也不同。開始白人家庭黑人兒童是受鼓勵(lì)的,到后來又變得generally unpopular,說明人們的觀點(diǎn)會(huì)發(fā)生變化,即D。
36.[A] 根據(jù)文章第一般寫作技法第一段不會(huì)結(jié)論,因此B不對,段中however的使用說明第一段所展示的使兩種觀點(diǎn),答案為A。
37.[B]文章第一段所展示的第一種觀點(diǎn)substituted in their place superficial relationships with passing acquaintances.說明人們以往是認(rèn)為城市居民不可能發(fā)展長久的友誼。
38.[C] 文章第三段提到If neighbors are strangers to one another, they are less likely to sweep the sidewalk of an elderly couple living next door or keep an eye out for young trouble makers. 說明鄰里之間很可能出現(xiàn)彼此都不關(guān)心的狀況,即C。
39.[C]文章最后提到,大城市里居民比小城鎮(zhèn)居民更見多識(shí)廣,to be tolerant of nontraditional religious groups,說明社區(qū)越大,人們越容易變得包容,思想也越開朗,所以答案為C。
40.[A] 本篇文章對比了大城市與小城鎮(zhèn)種人際關(guān)系,但并沒有強(qiáng)調(diào)在大城市中居住的優(yōu)越,B不對;文中提到了很多城市居住的負(fù)面影響,顯然C也不對;文章第二段中提到nor are residents of large communities any likelier to display psychological symptoms of stress or alienation,說明D也不對。由此可以判斷答案為A。

Part IV Error Correction
S1 Viewing在句中作狀語,與句子主語modern footballer之間是動(dòng)賓關(guān)系,應(yīng)該用過去分詞,所以Viewing應(yīng)改為Viewed。

S3. 句子缺少主語,根據(jù)主從句的意思來看,主語應(yīng)該是he,所以在enjoys前加主語he。

Passage 1
Nilrikman and others of the halfway research group have done some research into the differences between average and good negotiators. They found negotiators with the good trait record and studied them in action. They compared them with another group of average negotiators and found that there was no difference in the time that the two groups spent on planning their strategy. However, there were some significant differences on other points. The average negotiators thought in terms of the present, but the good negotiators took a long-time review. They made lots of suggestions and considered twice the number of the alternatives. The average negotiators set their objectives as single points. We hope to get two dollars, for example. The good negotiators set their objectives in terms of range, which they might formulate as "We hope to get two dollars, but if we get one dollar and fifty, it will be all right.". The average negotiators tried to persuade by giving lots of reasons. They use a lot of different arguments. The good negotiators didn't give many reasons. They just repeated the same ones. They also did more summarizing and reviewing, checking they were understood correctly.
11.What do good negotiators and average negotiators have in common?
12.According to the speaker, what would good negotiators do?
13.According to the speaker, what does the average negotiator usually do?
Passage 2
To most of us sharks are the most dangerous fish in the sea and they attack humans. However, according to Doctor Clark, who has studied the behavior of sharks for twelve years, humans are not normally on the shark's menu. What do sharks feed on, mainly fish and other sea animals? Doctor Clark also found that sharks don't eat as much food as people think. For instance, a nine-year-old shark only needs two pound of food a day to keep healthy. But she says, sharks sometimes starve and at other times they fill themselves with what they have killed. Around the world, there are only about one hundred shark attacks on humans each year, ten of which proved fatal. But consider this, in the US alone, about three million people are bitten by dogs each year. Of these, thirty people die. If sharks bite you, says Doctor Clark, the reason is usually because of the mistake you ****natural food. For example, say you went underwater-fishing and saw a shark, you could be in trouble. The shark might go for the injured fish you had attacked and take a bite of you at the same time. If you go into a shark's territory and threaten it, it might try to bite you. That's because sharks are territorial and tend to guard their territory. Like dogs, they protect the area they think is their own.
14.What does the passage say about the eating behavior of sharks?
15.When might a shark attach humans?
16.What do we learn from the passage about sharks?
Passage 3
Science fiction writers have often imagined humans going to live on the Mars. But these days, scientists are taking the idea seriously. It has a great deal to recommend it, since it might solve the problem of overcrowding on the earth. But obviously, it would not be worth making the effort unless people could live there naturally. If the atmosphere were like that of the earth, this might be possible. But in fact it is mostly carbonoxidite. Apart from that, there are other problems to be overcome. For example, the temperature would have to be raised from 6 degrees below zero to 15 degrees above it. Scientists who study Mars have laid down the program that they can follow. To begin with, they will have to find out whether life has ever existed on the planet of Mars in the past. Secondly they will have to make a reliable map of its surface. And finally, they will have to make a list of the gases. Above all, they will have to discover how much nitrogen it possesses. Since nitrogen is four fifths of the air we breathe, they are surprising optimistic about raising the temperature on Mars and believe it could be down in hundred years. It will take a bit longer, though, to transform the atmosphere so that human beings could live there. Scientists estimate this will take one hundred thousand years.
17.Why are scientists interested in Mars?
18.What is the one of the things that must be done if a man can live on Mars?
19.Why do scientist want to find out whether there is sufficient nitrogen on Mars?
20.What is the prospect of people living on Mars?
