1.该则新闻报道的所有内容都是围绕戈尔放弃2004年总统竞选决定这一中心来写的。答案为B。

2.作为现年54岁的戈尔年龄并不大，A是不对的；从“…their party had lost a top candidate”也可以判断出B是不正确的；从戈尔的话“…it probably means that I will never have another opportunity to run for president.”来分析，他还是很想当美国总统的。再说，又有谁不想当总统呢?从“There are a lot of people within the Democratic Party who felt exhausted( by the 2000 race)…who fell like,OK，‘I don't want to go through that again.’And I'm frankly sensitive to that feeling.”可以很清楚地推断出正确答案为C。

1.推断题。本文第一段的首句是本文的主题句。“Pricilla这幢‘有效节能’的房子，结果却是一场噩梦。”从通篇的阐述分析，这栋房子确实无可指责，而问题在于良好的节能性使早已存在的室内环境污染得以显现，致使Ouchida身受其害。所以选项B“从节约能源方面看是完美无瑕的”正确。选项C“不能达到节约能量的标准”与此刚好相悖。文章没有涉及到建房所需费用值不值的问题。因此，选项A花在其建设上的钱比较值得”，不对。文章没有提到选项D“按科学的方法设计建造的”，故此项也不对。答案为B。

2.细节题。第三段的第二、三句：“厨房内甲醛气体的标准比联邦当局要求从事化学生产的 标准的两倍还要高。气体来自哪里?厨房内的新柜子和铺满地板的地毯。”另外从最后一段 的分析可看出，此类问题是由于新建房屋的密封性好所致。所以，选项A“缺乏新鲜空气” 为正确答案。而选项B、C、D均与文章内容不符。答案为A。

3.词语题。这一段指出：The Ouchidas是室内空气污染的受害者，国家开展的节能运动使人

们忽视室内空气污染问题，这是造成这种情况的部分原因。然后指出：室内空气污染问题早 在节能运动前就存在，只是节能使这种问题在有些情况下变得更严重。据此，答案为C。 4.细节题。最后一段第二句明确指出：“因为在以前能源便宜时，房屋的建造者不必担心未 封闭的裂缝。”应选择选项B。其他三项都不符合题意。答案为B。

5.主旨题。综观全文，尤其是作者在最后两段的分析，可以看出本文只是以节能所造成的问 题为例，旨在阐述早已存在的室内空气污染问题。所以选项C为正确答案。实际上该题就 是“Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?”的另一种表达形式。答案为C。Passage 7

1.从文中的第二段可以看出：私立学校可以提供“better teachers,superior living facilities and more advanced teaching equipment”。答案为C。 2.从第一、二段中可以找到。答案为D。

cry”是不合情理的；裤子已经短了，“worried”也没有用了，只有“sad”而已。答案为D。Passage 9

Among various programmes, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one isdifferent in style(风格). But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows.

For example, the show takes the ever—common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people's lives.

Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society. Jerry ends every show with a “final word”. He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the , this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.

Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main viewers are middleclass Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and ability to deal with life's tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more

of a connection with the young adults of society. These are 18-to-21-year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation. 1Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are—— .
