Ⅳ.单项填空
1．________， I'd love to say I'm glad to have a word with you. A．To include B．To conclude
C．In the conclusion D．As conclusion
答案：B 考查词组辨析。在此题中，只有B项为固定词组，表示“最后”。其他干扰项都为错误搭配。
2．The kind of plant is quite ________. You can see them everywhere in the countryside. A．ordinary B．common C．special D．usual
答案：B 考查形容词辨析。此题后句对空缺处起了提示作用。ordinary“普通的，平常的”；common“常见的，司空见惯的”；special“特别的，专门的”；usual“通常的，惯常的”。
3．We are bombarded with information ________ magazines and TV and advertising. A．in a form of B．with form of C．in the form of D．in form of 答案：C 考查名词词组。名词词组的构成有其固定性与不可改变性，如此题中“以??形式”就只能表达为“in the form of”。
4．He turned around, ________ awkwardly on one foot. A．balance B．to balance C．balancing D．balanced
答案：C 考查非谓语动词。句意： 他转过身去，笨拙地用一只脚站稳。balance与主语he之间为主动关系，所以正确选项应为C项。
5．The whole expenses of this journey ________ $5, 000. A．added up B．added to C．was added up to D．added up to
答案：D 考查词组辨析。由句意可以确定，空缺处应表示“加起来共计”之意，所以D项为正确选项，此短语无被动形式。
6．(2010·河南郑州市质量预测)There would not be a good harvest of wheat this year________the drought.
A．in spite of B．apart from C．due to D．in case of
答案：C 句意：由于干旱，今年的小麦收成不会好。due to“因为；由于”。 7．—How do I start my car again?
—________ the major problem of it first. A．Found out B．Find out C．Finding out D．To find out
答案：B 据句意可知下句应为祈使句，回答上文的提问，应用动词原形。 8．How strange the desk is! It is ________ it is long. A．not half as wide as B．half not as wide as C．wide not as half as D．as wide as not half
答案：A 考查倍数的表达。“倍数＋as...as” 结构是倍数表达法之一，而且not应放在倍数之前，故A项为正确选项。
9．________ is our idea that we should work hard and enter the college we want to. A．As B．That C．This D．It
答案：D 考查形式主语。由句式构成方式可推知，that从句为真正的主语，而前面需用it作形式主语，其他选项无此用法。
10．What kind of conclusion can we ________ after having discussed for a long time? A．bring up B．lead to C．come to D．arrive in
答案：C 考查短语辨析。bring up“培养，养育”；lead to“导致”；come to“得到，达到”；arrive in “到达”。“come to a conclusion”为固定搭配，表示“得出结论”，所以选C。
Ⅴ.阅读理解
A
Imagine a man who cannot read or write. Now imagine that same man creating a brand new alphabet from scratch (从零开始). It sounds next to impossible, doesn't it? Yet that is exactly what one man did—a man named Sequoyah.
Born around 1770 in Tennessee, Sequoyah was a Cherokee. Like other Native Americans of that time, he could neither read nor write. He couldn't help noticing, though, how white people wrote to one another on sheets of paper. They often used these “talking_leaves”， as some Native Americans called them, to communicate.
Back then, the Cherokee had no way to write down words in their own language. Sequoyah believed it was important for the Cherokee to have a system of writing. So, in 1809, he set out to create an alphabet that the Cherokee could use to do just that.
Sequoyah started by drawing pictures, with each one representing a different word or idea. He soon realized that writing sentences using pictures would be much too difficult. There were too many words. No one would ever be able to remember that many pictures.
Sequoyah decided to try a different approach. He began to develop symbols to stand for the sounds, or syllables, which made up words. Twelve years later, he completed a system of writing with 86 different symbols. Each one stood for a different syllable in the Cherokee language. The symbols could easily be put together to form words. Soon thousands of Cherokee were able to read and write in their own language.
Sequoyah's work did not end there, however. He helped to establish a print shop and began publishing a bilingual (双语的) newspaper in both Cherokee and English. The shop also printed books translated from English into Cherokee. In later years, Sequoyah also became a political leader among the Cherokee.
Sequoyah died in 1843, but many Cherokee of today still use the alphabet he invented. Thanks to him, the Cherokee now have a written history that will never be forgotten. In honor of his achievements, Sequoyah's name was given to the giant redwood trees of California and the Sequoia National Park. The name of Sequoyah will never be forgotten either.
1．Sequoyah is best remembered for ________. A．not being able to read or write B．being raised as a Cherokee
C．drawing pictures to represent words or ideas D．inventing a written language for the Cherokee
答案：D 细节判断题。Sequoyah最突出的贡献是曾为切罗基语发明音节文字。 2．What does “talking leaves” in Paragraph 2 refer to according to the passage? A．Leaves with words on them.
B．Sheets of paper with words on them. C．Leaves which can communicate ideas. D．Paper which can make sounds. 答案：B 细节理解题 。由第二段的．..white people wrote to one another...to communicate.可知，talking leaves指的是“写着字的纸张”。
3．The passage revealed that reading and writing became possible for Cherokee in the year ________.
A．1809 B．1821 C．1843 D．1770
答案：B 细节推断题。文章第三段提及在1809年Sequoyah开始创建字母表，第四段接着讲述他试图用图画来表示各个单词或者想法，结果意识到这不太现实——那么多单词需要那么多图画表示，没有人记得住。第五段围绕他采用符号来表示音节展开，提到12年后，他设计完成了有86个不同的符号的书写系统，从而实现了Cherokee人读写的梦想。1809年的12年后是1821年，故选B。
4．What did Sequoyah do just after he completed the set of symbols for the Cherokee language?
A．He translated some books from English into Cherokee. B．He began growing giant redwood trees.
C．He helped to start a printing press and a newspaper. D．He became a political leader .
答案：C 细节判断题。由倒数第二段可知，Sequoyah在完成切罗基语音节文字之后，帮着建了一个印刷厂，并开始出版一份双语报纸(切罗基语和英语)。
B
Children often use body language to show us how they are feeling long before they can talk. If they hang around (靠近) their mothers quietly, it is easy to tell that they are nervous. Mothers also know that they can calm the child with a touch on the cheek or a gentle word.
It seems that we come into the world with a set of gestures already programmed into us. Everybody, regardless of country, race or religion, can look surprised, smile or cry. It also seems that we can recognize our mothers' voice even before we are born. Even a newborn baby will look in the direction of its mother's voice when she is not in sight. Feeding time also represents a time when babies and mothers can get closer. The baby can watch the mother's face at the same time.
Babies are also keen (敏锐的) observers of facial expressions and learn from mothers' reaction whether something is to be feared or not. This is often why first babies are more timid (胆小的) and less relaxed than their later brothers and sisters. The mother is obviously more worried about her first baby but by the time the second arrives she has gained confidence.
Babies never want to be left out of any activity. Even small babies will cry until they can see what is going on around them. Babies learn to communicate quite early with gestures. They point to things and get rewarded when those things are given to them. They laugh during a game and are rewarded when the game continues. They smile at strangers and are rewarded by being picked up and cuddled (拥抱). So learning the body language of the children is as important and rewarding as studying that of another culture.
5．According to the passage, what will babies most probably do if they feel nervous? A．Cry as loudly as they can.
B．Close their eyes and shake their heads. C．Get near to their mothers silently. D．Point to things they are afraid of.
答案：C 细节理解题。由第一段第二句If they hang around(靠近)．..they are nervous.可推知，如果婴儿感到紧张，他们会贴近母亲，默不作声。
6．According to Paragraph 2, a baby is born to know its mother's ________. A．voice B．habit
C．language D．gesture
答案：A 细节判断题。由第二段第三句It also seems that we can recognize our mothers' voice even before we are born.可知，婴儿生来就能辨别母亲的声音。第四句Even a newborn baby...is not in sight. 是对这种现象的例证。
7．What do we infer from Paragraph 3?
A．Babies know which things are frightening.
B．Babies are easily to be influenced by their mothers.
C．Babies will be more timid if their mothers are confident. D．Babies understand what their mothers are thinking about.
答案：B 推理判断题。由第三段可知，婴儿善于察言观色，并能体会母亲的感受。同时我们知道了头胎婴儿易胆小的原因是，母亲在生产第一个婴儿时会有较多的担心，因此可以说，婴儿容易受母亲的影响。故选B。
