Directions: In this section, there is a short passage in Chinese . Read it carefully and put it into English.
李成业是文化部翻译组的主任。他认为，语言是一种活的东西，和我们的日常生活息息相关。他说他十分幸运，最初做法庭翻译和目前在翻译组里的工作，使他能够不断的学习和接触两种语言。
当他还在学校教英语的时候，就曾翻译了好多英文杂志中的文章，投给本地英语报。
他说：“学习语言的动机和兴趣都非常重要。”他把学习语言比喻为跑步，跑步虽然非常吃力，但运动员知道它的好处并饶有兴趣，所以还是一点都不觉得厌倦。
“在学习语言的过程中，我们一定要创造学习语言的机会和环境。”他认为看电影，阅读和交流等都是学习语言的好机会。
最后他说：“由于现在大家的时间都很有限，如果阅读能力短篇故事或一些名人的语录，对我们学习英语会很有帮助，同时也能增进学习的兴趣。”

答案详解
I. Vocabulary and structure
1. A find fault with sb. 找……的茬；挑剔；对……吹毛求疵；为固定短语，其他选项均无这
种用法。句意：老板总是找他的茬儿，这让他很生气。 2. D journey 路程，通常指陆地上的远距离“旅行”；trip一般指时间段、距离近的“旅行、
远足”；travel作“旅行，游历”讲，一般表示旅行的总的概念；voyage主要指远距离的水上旅行，本题中是穿越大西洋的航海旅行，只有voyage符合题意。句意：约翰森夫妇还没有为穿越大西洋的航海旅行作任何准备。
3. A get used to doing sth.意为“习惯于做某事”，get在这里做系动词。句意：起先彼特感到
很孤独，但是一段时间之后他渐渐习惯了自己生活，甚至喜欢上了这种方式。
4. C would rather所跟从句表示希望或委婉的责备时，动词用过去式表示当时或将来的情况，
用过去完成式表示过去的情况。句意：她说她宁愿他明天走，而不是今天。
5. B come off：能被去掉，举行；come up：发生，升起，被提及；come through：实现诺言；
come to：苏醒，恢复意识。句意：昏迷了24小时之后，那位受伤的士兵终于醒了。 6. C keep a diary“记日记，写日记”，为固定搭配。句意：学生们被要求坚持记日记，目的是
为了提高他们的写作技能。
7. C 在独立主格结构中，分词作状语时，其主语与句子的主语一致时，分词前不需要再加主
语；若分词的逻辑主语与主句的主语不一致，则分词前要加上自己的主语。本题独立主格结构The weather being fine表示原因。句意：因为天气很好，我们决定出去野餐。 8. D as在句子中引导定语从句，“as+is+过去分词”构成常用的句式，可译为“正如……” ，
如：as it known to all众所周知。句意：正如人们经常指出的，知识是一把“双刃剑”，即可
—
——
为善也可为恶。 9. C lay aside：把……放在一边，储备；lay out：展开，提出；lay off (sb.)：解雇某人；lay down：
规定。句意：火灾后那家工厂不得不解雇500名工人。
10. D harm, damage, hurt都有“伤害”的意思，注意这几个词的区别：damange：损害，毁害；
harm：伤害，损害；hurt：（心理上的）伤害；spoil：变味，损坏，糟蹋，宠坏。Spoiled“宠坏的，溺爱的”，句意：被父母过度保护的孩子会被宠坏的。
11. D it + be +被强调部分+ that 是强调句的固定结构。请注意not until强调句的用法。句意：
知道被送进了监狱他才意识到自己已经犯了法。
12. C it’s no + use/good + doing sth.意为“做什么没用/没好处”等，为固定用法。句意：反对
他的建议是没好处的，因为他从不改变主意。
13. D visible：可见的；original：起初的；delicate：脆弱的，易损的；available：可获得的，
可取的。句意：大、中、小号的裙子一应俱全。
14. D doubt：怀疑；sense：感觉；judgement：判断；suspicion：察觉。其中doubt是由于信息
不足而不相信，或不能辨别是非真伪，拿不准；suspicion是感到可能存在某事，猜疑有某种情况，多指疑心别人有不好的事。句意：老师觉察到那个男孩脸色苍白，没有胃口。
15. C 句子中缺少主语，只有what可以引导主语从句。句意：在有些国家，那些被称做平等
的东西并非意味着所有公民权利平等。
16. D 从大雨中可以看出是一种肯定得推测，并且打电话的那个时候妻子已经睡着了。must
have done表示对过去动作的肯定推测。句意：“昨天晚上你妻子为什么不接我电话？”“我想你打电话时她一定睡着了。”
17. C do business with sb.意为“与某人做生意”，为固定用法。其他选项都不正确。故选C。
句意：谁和那位仁兄做生意谁就会破财。
18. B respectful：尊敬的，表示敬意的；respectable：令人尊敬的，值得尊敬的；respective：
各自的，分别的；respecting是respect的现在分词形式。句意：那位令人尊敬的老师凭着她的交际语言教学法收到了学生的赞扬。
19. B 句子空缺处缺少宾语成分，只有that和whatever可以引导宾语从句；根据句意可知应是
“人可以做的任何事情”。句意：如果计算机造得像人脑一样复杂，它就可以做人类可以做的任何事。
20. C 物主代词/人称代词/名词所有格+动名词，构成了动名词的复合结构，物主代词或名词所
有格等是动名词的逻辑主语。动名词复合结构在句子中主要作主语和宾格。本题中their reducing作understand的宾语。句意：他们缩减了用于教育事业的资金数额，这一行为使人费解。
21. D transfer sb./ sth. from to将sb./ sth.意为“从一个地方转移到另一个地方”，符合题意。其
他选项transmit：传送，传输，发射；remove：移开，拿去，去掉；exchange：交换；均不合题意。句意：约翰希望公司能够将他调到纽约的分公司。
22. D allow：允许，其主语一般为人；need：需要；require：要求，均不合题意。permit：允
许，许可，主语可以是人，也可以是物。句意：如果时间允许的话，开完会后我会来。 23. C 虚拟条件有时不通过if明显表达出来，而是隐含在副词、介词短语或上下文中。but for,
but that就是其中之一。but for = if it were not for或if it had not been for意思为“要不是，如果不是”。句意：要不是警察及时赶到，汤姆可能已经被杀害了。
24. A 本题涉及倍数表示发的其中之一：A + be +倍数+ as +计量形容词原级+ as + B。句意：他
去年买了一座新房子，是他以前那座的两倍大。 25. B come into effect意为：“生效，起作用”。为固定搭配。句意：我被告知合同将于下个月
的第一天生效。
26. A lead to：引起，带来；result from：由于，因为；lie in：位于；settle down：建立，居住。
—
——
根据句中主语和宾语的逻辑关系可以确定正确答案。句意：和谐社会会给国家的卫生、财产和安全都带来可观的效益。
27. A as/though引导的让步状语从句要用部分倒装结构，所以将表语young提前。句意：尽管
她很年轻，她也能胜任那项工作。
28. B neither nor连接的两个成分的时态和语态应该保持一致。Neither后跟的是现在完成时，
所以nor后也应跟动词的现在完成时形式，has可以省略。句意：李教授已经好几天既没看电视也没看电影了。
29. A delete：删除，删掉；skim：掠过，滑过；omit：忽略；leave off：中断。句意：我的论
文被导师删掉了三段，好可惜！
30. D sb. is accused of doing sth.：某人被指责做了某事；punish与scold均不能与of连用；be
charged with意为“指控，控告”。句意：那名士兵被指责在敌人袭击时临阵脱逃。
31. A dares在本句中是实意动词，所以变反意疑问句式借助于助动词does（主语是第二人称
或复数时借助于do）；又因前半句是肯定形式，所以反意疑问句要用否定形式。句意：那个年轻女孩敢在夜晚独自驾驶，不是吗？
32. D 非限定性定语从句应该用which来引导，所以可以排除A、C，选B项的话，从句仍缺
少宾语。句意：他的起居室里陈列着各种各样的书，但他一本也没有读过。 33. D precise：就，恰好，at the precise moment意为“就在这个时候”，其他均不能用于此结
构。句意：我走进大厅，恰好在这个时候音乐会开始了。
34. D edge：边沿，边线；limit：限度，程度；border：一般指“国界，边界”，boundaries：边
界，界限。所以综合可知D最合适。句意：随着科技的进步，人类知识的界限正在进一步向外扩充。
35. C in that相当于because；so that：以至于；provide that：只要；but that：要不是。句意：
氢是宇宙中的基本元素，因为它提供了产生其他因素的固体。
36. C 在表示虚拟语气的条件句中，从句与过去事实相反，要用过去完成时。句意：如果你做
完早睡的话，今天早上你就不会感到这么累了。
37. A continuously：持续地，连续地，不断地；continually：频繁地，多次重复地；consciously：
有意思的；contractively：合同地，契约地。根据句意，雨应该是持续不断地下了两天。句意：已经连续下了两天雨了。
38. C leave sb./ sth. off和leave sb./ sth. out都有“将某人/某事漏掉；不包含某人/某物在内”的
意思。leave sb./ sth. out还有“冷落某人”的意思，带有感情色彩，更符合题意。Count on sb./ sth.意为“依赖某人，某物”；count up意为“总数为，总计”。这两个都不合题意。句意：你分发请帖时别漏掉我。
39. A in case of sth.：假使，如果；in case：以防，万一；in event of：如果，以防；三项都不
符合题意。in the cause of意为“在……过程中”。句意：在化学变化中一种新物质生成了。 40. D 进行比较的应该是人数（the number），所以用that来指代前面的the number，不能用those，
故B不正确；A、C均无引导词，也不正确。句意：报名参加今年的马拉松的人数是去年（人数）的一半。
Ⅱ. Reading Comprehension
41. A 事实细节题。题干大意是：这个男人一度认为广告是______。从文章第一句“A man once
said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspapers.”可知，这个人曾经认为打广告是没有用的。故正确答案为A。
42. B 事实细节题。题干大意是：第一则广告的结果是______。从文章第一段主人公所说的话
中“As it was a present, I spend twice its worth in advertising, but didn’t get it back.（因为它是别人送的礼物，我花了两倍的价钱做广告，但还是没有找回伞）”可知，B项为正确答案。其
