Irradiating Food

Irradiating fruits, vegetables, pork and chicken to kill insects and bacteria has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration over the past decade or so. Irradiation of other meats, such as beef and lamb, is being reviewed. Federal approval does not require that industry adopt the process, and few food processors presently offer irradiated products.
Market studies have shown that many consumers are afraid that eating irradiated foods may cause cancer, despite scientific studies that prove the safety of treated foods. Some people argue that more severe government inspection, higher food-safety standards, and more careful-preparation practices by consumers are all that is needed to ensure that food is safe. Consequently, companies currently see no need to spend millions of dollars outfitting processing plants with the equipment necessary for a process that very few shoppers are in favor of.
All supermarkets that sell irradiated food must label the food either directly on the packaging, or, in the case of bulk items like fruits and vegetables, by placing a sign nearby. There is no requirement for the labeling of irradiated food served by chain restaurants or hospitals that buy directly from distributors, nor any regulations for products that contain irradiated ingredients.
Presently, the FDA allows food to be treated with three types of radiation -- gamma rays, high-energy electrons, and X rays -- and sets limits on doses, depending on the type of food. The principle is that the dose to be used for a certain type of food should not exceed the amount that is sufficient to kill most harmful insects and bacteria present in it. Different types of food, because of their molecular compositions, may require different doses of radiation.

1. According to the passage, killing insects and bacteria present in foods by irradiating is not completely approved by the US government.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

2. There are quite a number of food processors which are interested in producing irritated foods.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

3. Some consumers are doubtful of the safety of irradiated foods and suggest a more severe government inspection be taken.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

4. Some companies foresee the promising future of setting up food processing factories, although they do not see the need now.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

5. It is required that labels placed on irradiated food or nearby bulk items such as vegetables and fruits should indicate irradiated ingredients.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

6. Restaurants can serve irradiated food bought directly from distributors without labeling it.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

7. The passage tells us that FDA approves irradiating food to some extent but irradiated food is not widely accepted.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

The Mir Space Station

The Russian Mir Space Station, which came down in 2001 at last after 15 years of pioneering the concept of long-term human space flight, is remembered for its accomplishments in the human space flight history. It can be credited with many firsts in space.
During Mir's lifetime, Russia spent about US$4.2 billion to build and maintain the station.
The Soviet Union launched Mir, which was designed to last from three to five years, on February 20, 1986, and housed 104 astronauts over 12 years and seven months, most of whom were not Russian. In fact, it became the first international space station by playing host to 62 people from 11 countries. From 1995 through 1998, seven astronauts from the United States took turns living on Mir for up to six months each. They were among the 37 Americans who visited the station during nine stopovers by space shuttles.
The more than 400 million the United States provided Russian for the visits not only kept Mir operating, but also gave the Americans and their partners in the international station project valuable experience in long-term flight and multinational operations.
A debate continues over Mir's contributions to science. During its existence, Mir was the laboratory for 23,000 experiments and carried scientific equipment, estimated to be worth $80 million, from many nations. Experiments on Mir are credited with a range of findings, from the first solid measurement of the ration of heavy helium atoms in space to how to grow wheat in space. But for those favoring human space exploration, Mir showed that people could live and work in space long enough for a trip to Mars. The longest single stay in space is the 437.7 days that Russian astronaut Valery Polyakov spent on Mir from 1994 to 1995. And Sergie Avdeyev accumulated 747.6 days in space in three trips to the space station. The longest American stay was that of Shannon Lucid, who spent 188 days aboard Mir in 1996.
Despite the many firsts Mir accomplished, 1997 was a bad year out of 15 for Mir. In 1997, an oxygen generator caught fire. Later, the main computer system broke down, causing the station to drift several times and there were power failures.
Most of these problems were repaired, with American help and suppliers, but Mir's reputation as a space station was ruined.
Mir's setbacks are nothing, though, when we compare them with its accomplishments. Mir was a tremendous success, which will be remembered as a milestone in space exploration and the space station that showed long-term human habitation in space was possible. But it's time to move on to the next generation. The International Space Station being built will be better, but it owes a great debt to Mir.

1. Paragraph 4
2. Paragraph 5
3. Paragraph 6
4. Paragraph 8

A Rewards following the U.S. financial injectionB Mir's firsts in scientific experiments and space explorationC Undeniable Mir's achievementsD Mir regarded as a complete failureE Mir's problem yearF A great debt owned to the International Space Station

5. Mir enhanced the confidence in the scientists that humans living in space for a long time was ..........

第1篇
The Gene Industry

Major companies are already in pursuit of commercial applications of the new biology. They dream of placing enzymes in the automobile to monitor exhaust and send data on pollution to a microprocessor that will then adjust the engine. They speak of what the New York Times calls " metal-hungry microbes that might be used to mine valuable trace metals from ocean water ". They have already demanded and won the right to patent new lifeforms.
Nervous critics, including many scientists, worry that there is corporate, national, international, and inter-scientific rivalry in the entire biotechnological field. They create images not of oil spills, but of " microbe spills " that could spread disease and destroy entire populations. The creation and accidental release of extremely poisonous microbes, however, is only one cause for alarm. Completely rational and respectable scientists are talking about possibilities that stagger the imagination.
Should we breed people with cow-like stomachs so they can digest grass and hay, thereby relieving the food problem by modifying us to eat lower down on the food chain? Should we biologically alter workers to fit the job requirement, for example, creating pilots with faster reaction times or assembly-line workers designed to do our monotonous work for us? Should we attempt to eliminate " inferior " people and breed a " super -race "? (Hitler tried this, but without the genetic weaponry that may soon issue from our laboratories.) Should we produce soldiers to do our fighting? Should we use genetic forecasting to pre-eliminate " unfit " babies? Should we grow reserve organs for ourselves, each of us having, as it were, a " savings bank " full of spare kidney, livers or hands?
Wild as these notions may sound, every one has its advocates (and opposers) in the scientific community as well as its striking commercial application. As two critics of genetic engineering, Jeremy Rifkin and Ted Howard, state in their book Who Should Play God? " Broad Scale genetic engineering will probably be introduced to America much the same way as assembly lines, automobiles, vaccines, computers and all the other technologies. As each new genetic advance becomes commercially practical, a new consumer need will be exploited and a market for the new technology will be created."

1. According to the passage, the exhaust from a car engine could probably be checked by
A) using metal-hungry microbes .
B) making use of enzymes.
C) adjusting the engine.
D) patenting new life forms.

2. According to the passage, which of the following would worry the critics the most?
A) The unanticipated explosion of population
B) The creation of biological solar cells.
C) The accidental spill of oil.
D) The unexpected release of destructive microbes.

3. Which of the following notions is NOT mentioned?
A) Developing a " savings bank " of one's organs.
B) Breeding soldiers for a war.
C) Producing people with cow-like stomachs.
D) Using genetic forecasting to cure diseases.

4. According to the passage, Hitler attempted to
A) changed the pilots biologically to win the war.
B) develop genetic farming for food supply.
C) kill the people he thought of as inferior.
D) encourage the development of genetic weapons for the war.

5. What dose Jeremy Rifkin and Ted Howard's statement imply?
A) The commercial applications of genetic engineering are inevitable.
B) American will depend on other countries for biological progress.
C) Americans are proud of their countries for biological progress.
D) The potential application of each new genetic advance should be controlled.

Ford Abandons Electric Vehicles

The Ford motor company’s abandonment of electric cars effectively signals the end of the road for the technology，analysts say．
General Motors。and Honda’ceased production of battery．powered cars in 1 999, to focus on fuel cell and hybrid electric gasoline engines, which are more attractive to the consumer．Ford has now announced it will do the same．
Three years ago．the company introduced the Think City two—seater car and a golf cart called the THINK, or Think Neighbor．It hoped to sell 5，000 cars each year and 10，000 carts．But a lack of demand means only about l，000 of the cars have been produced，and less than 1。700 carts have been sold so far in 2002．
“The bottom line is we don’t believe that this is the future of environment transport for the mass market．”Tim Holmes of Ford Europe said on Friday．“We feel we have given electric our best shot”
The Think City has a range of only about 53 miles and up to a six-hour battery recharge time．General Motors’EVI electric vehicle also had a limited range。of about 100 miles．
The very expensive batteries also mean electric cars cost much more than petrol-powered alternatives．An electric Toyot~RAV4 EV vehicle costs over$42，000 in the US, compared with just $17，000 for the petrol version．Toyota and Nissan…are now the only major automanufacturers to produce electric vehicles．
“There is a feeling that battery electric has been given its chance．Ford now has to move on with its hybrid program“，and that is what we will be judging them on，”Roger Higman，a senior transport campaigner at UK Friends of the Earth，told the Environment News Service．
Hybrid cars introduced by Toyota and Honda in the past few years have sold well．Hybrid engines Offer Greater mileage than petrol—only engines , and the batteries recharge themselves. Ford says it thinks such vehicles will help it meet planned new guidelines “on vehicle emissions” in the U.S.
However, it is not yet clear exactly what those guidelines will permit．In June，General Motors and Daimler Chrysler won a court injunction，delaying by two years Californian legislation requiring car—makers to offer 100，000 zero-emission and other low—emission vehicles in the state by 2003．Car manufacturers hope the legislation will be rewritten to allow for more low--emission，rather than zero—emission，vehicles．
1． What have the Ford motor company．General Motor’s and Honda done concerning electric cars?
A)They have started to produce electric cars．
B)They have done extensive research on electric Cars
C They have given up producing electric cars．
D)They have produced thousands of electric Cars

2． According to Tim Holmes of Ford Europe，battery-powered cars
A)will be the main transportation vehicles in the future
B1 will not be the main transportation vehicles in the future．
C)will be good to the environment in the future
D)will replace petrol—powered vehicles in the future．

3. Which auto manufacturers are still producing electric vehicles?
A)Toyota and Nissan
B)General Motor’s and Honda
C)Ford and Toyota
D)Honda and Toyota

4．According to the eighth paragraph，hybrid cars
A)offer fewer mileage than petrol driven cars
B)run faster than petrol driven cars
C)run more miles than petrol driven cars
D)offer more batteries than petrol driven cars

5．Which of the following is true about the hope of car manufacturers according to the last paragraph?
A)Low-emission cars should be banned．
B)Only zero-emission cars are allowed to run on motorways．
C)The legislation will encourage car makers to produce more electric cars．
D)The legislation will allow more 10w．emission to be produced．

Electronic Teaching

The potential of closed-circuit television and other new electronic teaching tools is so great that it is fascinating to visualize " the school of tomorrow ".
Televised lessons will originate from a central building having perhaps four or five master studios. The lessons will be carried into classrooms all over a city, or even an entire country.
After a televised lesson has been given, the classroom teacher will take over for the all-important " follow-up" period. The students will ask any troublesome questions, and difficult points will be cleared up through discussion.
The teacher in the classroom will have additional electronic tools. On the teacher's desk, the traditional chalk and erasers will have been replaced by a multiple-control panel and magnetic tape player. The tape machines will run pre-recorded lessons which pupils will follow by headphones. The lessons will be specifically geared to the students' levels of ability. For instance, while the class as a whole studies history, each student will receive an individual history lesson, directed to his particular level of ability.
Should question arise, the students will be able to talk directly to the teacher on individual " intercoms " without disturbing the rest of the class. In this way, the teacher will be able to conduct as many as three classes at the same time.
With the rapid development of computer science, students will be aided with specially prepared multi-media software to study their subjects better. Homework will possibly be assigned and handed in via electronic mail system. Students can even take examinations on their computer linked with the teacher's and get the score instantly. They will get certificates or diplomas if they pass all the required examinations. Experts believe that this type of education will be very popular in the years ahead.

1． Lessons broadcast by television will come from
A) the school of tomorrow.
B) classrooms.
C) big buildings.
D) master studios.

2. Which of the following statement about the function of the teacher in the teaching process is true?
A) The teacher will not need to be involved.
B) The teacher will still have to play an important role.
C) The teacher will only need to press buttons.
D) The teacher will be completely replaced by electronic tools.

3. When having lessons, the students will
A) always listen to the same pre-recorded lessons together.
B) usually have individual lessons according to their ability levels .
C) control the multiple-control panel and magnetic tape players.
D) receive face-to-face instructions from the teacher in the same classroom.

4. If there are questions, the students will
A) talk to the teacher through " intercoms ".
B) raise their hands and wait for the answer.
C) discuss them with the rest of the class.
D) solve the problems all by themselves.

5. Computer teaching will help the study in the following ways except that
A) teachers can give and collect homework using electronic mail system.
B) examinations can conducted on computers better than on paper.
C) test scores can be obtained soon after the test is taken.
D) certificates or diplomas are required if the students want to pass the tests.

The first four minutes

When do people decide whether or not they want to become friends? During their first four minutes together, according to a book by Dr. Leonard Zunin. In his book, "Contact: The first four minutes," he offers this advice to anyone interested in starting new friendships: __1__. A lot of people's whole lives would change if they did just that.
You may have noticed that average person does not give his undivided attention to someone he as just met.__2__. If anyone has ever done this to you, you probably did not like him very much.
When we are introduced to new people, the author suggests, we should try to appear friendly and self-confident. In general, he says, "People like people who like themselves."
On the other hand, we should not make the other person think we are too sure of ourselves. It is important to appear interested and sympathetic, realizing that the other person has his won needs, fears, and hopes.
Hearing such advice, one might say, "But I'm not a friendly, self-confident person. That's not my nature. It would be dishonest for me to at that way."
__3__. We can become accustomed to any changes we choose to make in our personality. "It is like getting used to a new car. It may be unfamiliar at first, but it goes much better than the old one."
But isn't it dishonest to give the appearance of friendly self-confidence when we don't actually feel that way? Perhaps, but according to Dr. Zunin, "total honest" is not always good for social relationships, especially during the first few minutes of contact. There is a time for everything, and a certain amount of play-acting may be best for the first few minutes of contact with a stranger. That is not the time to complain about one's health or to mention faults one finds in other people. It is not the time to tell the whole truth about one's opinions and impressions.
__4__. For a husband and wife or a parent and child, problems often arise during their first four minutes together after they have been apart. Dr. Zunin suggests that these first few minutes together be treated with care. If there are unpleasant matters to be discussed, they should be dealt with later.
The author says that interpersonal relations should be taught as a required course in every school, along with reading, writing, and mathematics. __5__ that is at least as important as how much we know.

A. In reply, Dr. Zunin would claim that a little practice can help us feel comfortable about changing our social habits.
B. Much of what has been said about strangers also applies to relationships with family members and friends.
C. In his opinion, success in life depends mainly on how we get along with other people.
D. Every time you meet someone in a social situation, give him your undivided attention for four minutes.
E. He keeps looking over the other person's shoulder, as if hoping to find someone more interesting in another part of the room.
F. He is eager to make friends with everyone.

答案及解析
 
第一部分：词汇选择（第1-15题，每题1分，共15分）
下面共有15句子，每个句子均有一个词或短语划有底横线，请从每个句子后面所给的四个选项中选择一个与划线部分意义最相近的词或短语。答案一律涂在答题卡相应的位置上。

1．A. 分析：根据句意（“政府正在..教育法”）排除B（搭配词义不通顺），C和D（C和D都通常和进行时态连用）。debate: vt, vi讨论，争论;discuss : vt谈论；讨论；商讨(with sb. )；delay: vt, vi, n. 推迟；延缓 ；Decline: vt, vi下降；下滑；下倾

2． D。分析：在该句中yield 是用作名词（因为该词的前面有不定冠词a），分析：抓住句子中与划线部分相关的结构或用词特点：能与不定冠词a搭配使用的被选项只有C和D（气候，倾向， 风气，如：a mild climate温和的气候）。再借助句子中其他特征词：farm，判断harvest“收成”是答案。该句含义是“这一年中他们的收成要比数英里以外的其他任何农场的收成都好得多。”Yield: vt, vi出产, （常与to连用）放弃；投降；让步 n. 产量；收成

3．A。分析：划线短语是动词短语，对于该短语的语义有两种查找方法：1。利用动词do，直接在字典中查找do away with 这个短语的语义。不难得出该短语的语义是“去掉”，所以A是答案；2。利用该短语中的词义推测：away是“离开”，而备选项中： set up是“建立”， repair是“修理”， paint 是“油漆, 描绘”，都与“离开”无关，所以只有get rid of是答案。该句句意是“这座城市已经决定把位于市中心的所有的旧的建筑物都废弃掉。”

4．C. 分析：根据画线词的家族词（drama）的本义和与画线词搭配的结构的含义（“变化”），判断C是答案。该句含义是“在过去的十年中，在国际形式方面已经出现了显著的变化。”Striking: adj. 引人注意的；显著的；Dramatic: adj. 戏剧的；有关戏剧的; 引人注目的。

5. D。分析：根据构词法：划线词的前部分是 damage（破坏），即damaging是动词damage的分词，所以推测该词义大概是“破坏的” 。而备选答案都是常见词汇，其中只有harmful是“破坏的”，因此可以推断harmful是答案。该句含义是“从经济大萧条以后，美国政府一直在（采取措施）使农民避免遭受到由于粮食价格的下降而带来的损失”。

6． B。分析：seldom是常见词汇，该词义是“很少地” 。而备选答案中rarely也是常见的否定副词，是“很少地”。该句含义是“水泥在中世纪的建筑中很少使用。”

7．B。分析：steady 和stable是近义词，都可表示“稳定的”， 所以可以相互排除掉。再根据构词法：plentiful = plenti(y) + ful 判断B的含义是“大量的”。借助句意“在这个国家里有大量的廉价劳动力”判断B最合适。

8．D。分析：crucial“至关紧要的”和 urgent“紧急的”含义最接近。该句句意是“任何经济体系所面临的最至关紧要的的问题是如何使用它稀少的资源”。Puzzling adj.(使)迷惑的, (使)为难的； terrifying adj.使感到恐怖的;

9． A。 分析： 该句含义是“他在生意中赚了一大笔钱。”immense adj.极大的; limited adj.有限的；

10.A. 分析： Accelerate v.加速, 促进, 所以A（加快）是答案。Shorten v.缩短, (使)变短；loosen v.解开, 放松, 松开； enlarge v.扩大, 放大； 词缀-en通常加在某些形容词的前面或后面，使其变成相应的动词，该词缀的含义是“使变得更加..”, 如：enlarge就是“使变得更大/扩大”

11． A。 分析：根据划线词后的介词搭配（with）判断答案A。furnish..with..= supply/provide..with../给..提供..； gather n.集合, 聚集vi.集合, 聚集vt.使聚集； grasp
vt./ n.抓住,掌握, 领会；该句含义是“这个房间配备了最基本的物品：一张床，一把椅子，和一张桌子。”

12． B。 分析：借助句意（当地的政府决定把两家公司合并成一家公司）判断B（（使）联合）是答案。Motivate v.激发； compact adj.紧凑的, 紧密的, 简洁的； nominate vt.提名, 推荐, 任命

13． B。 分析：该句含义是“他强调要制定出一个能够被双方都接受的可行计划” 。
feasible adj.可行的, 切实可行的； favorable adj.赞成的, 有利的, 赞许的；genuine adj.真实的, 真正的

14． C。 分析：depart vi.离开, 起程， 该词和C是近义词。pull out v.拔出, 离开； pull up
v.拔起, 停下； pull down v.摧毁, 推翻, 使降低； pull in v.进站, 靠岸

15． D。 分析：借助句意（因为管理着整个公司，他有时候得夜以继日地工作）判断D（管理）是答案。Evaluate vt.评价, 估计； adjust vt.调整, 调节, 校准； engage vt.使忙碌， 使从事于, 使参加 vi.答应, 从事

第二部分：阅读判断（每题1分，共七分）
阅读下面这篇短文，短文后列出了七个句子，请根据短文的内容对每个句子作出判断。如果该句提供的是正确信息，请在答题卡上把A涂黑；如果该句提供的是错误信息，请在答题卡上把B涂黑；如果该句的信息文章中没有提及，请在答题卡上把C涂黑

Irradiating Food
1． A。解析：注意: 在看题干时尤其需要注意题干中出现的修饰词 --形容词/副词。利用专有名词“US government”作为答案线索词，这样在第1段找到答案相关句（第1，2，3句）。发现它们的说法与问题句的说法一致，所以判定答案正确。

2． C。解析：注意句中出现的修饰词“a number of”，利用“food processors/食品加工厂”作为答案线索词，这样在第一段的最后一句中找到答案相关句，发现该句并没有提到食品加工厂的兴趣问题，所以判定判断该句的说法为“没提到”。

3． A.解析：判断该句说的较客观，所以可能正确。借助原文：利用“safety，severe government inspection”作为答案线索词，这样第2段的第1句和第2句中找到答案相关句，发现它们的说法与问题句的说法一致，因此判断为“正确”。

4． C。解析：利用“companies，promising future”作为答案线索词，这样在第2段的最后一句找到答案相关句，发现该句并没有提到预测被辐射食品的未来前景问题。

5．B。解析：利用“labels，irradiated ingredients，indicate ”作为答案线索词，这样在第3段发现答案相关句群，对比这些句子的说法发现它们的说法与问题句的说法不一致，因此判定问题句的说法错误。

6． A.解析：利用“Restaurants，distributors”作为答案线索词，关注题干中的状语结构-without labeling it，这样在第3段的第2句找到答案相关句，判定问题句的说法正确。

7． A。解析：注意:有关文章主题的题，注意看文章的开头或/和结尾的句子。这道题是有关文章主题的题，借助文章的结尾：Presently, the FDA allows food to be treated with three types of radiation （与approves irradiating food to some extent呼应），而文章开头的句意也与该问题句的说法一致，所以答案为正确。

第三部分：概括大意与完成句子 （每题1分，共8分）
阅读下面这篇短文，短文后有2项测试任务：（1）1---4 题要求从所给的6个选项中为第2--5 段每段选择1个正确的小标题；（2）第5--8题要求从所给的6个选项中选择4个正确的选项，分别完成每个句子。请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。

l 概括大意题解题思路：
1． 如果段首句和或段尾句是观点句，可借助段首句和或段尾句的句意判断答案；
2． 借助段落中反复出现的核心词/核心结构判断答案；
3． 如果段落中有举例的内容，可参考举例内容判断答案；
4． 注意段落中出现的观点句（观点句中有时出现这样的一些结构： to sum up (adv.总之, 总而言之); in a word (adv.总之), in conclusion （adv.最后, 总之）等或内容上提到“..研究发现..”， “.某某研究者发现..”），转折句（往往句子中出现“but, however, although, though, nevertheless”等词），因为这些句子可能就是段落的中心句，可参考这些句子句意判断答案。
The Mir Space Station
1． A 该段只有一句话。而该句话的主语就是“货币投入-- more than 400 million”，而与该主语相呼应的只有A（美国资金投入的回报），这样没有读句子就直接确认答案了。实际上该句谈到，美国的经济支持不仅使和平号空间站的航行得以继续，而且使美国及其他国家的宇航员取得了在宇宙空间长时间航行和多国合作的经验。

2． B 该段一开始（段首句）就提到了“和平号”的贡献问题。而在该段中列举了和平号空间站取得的一些“第一”和“之最”。对比备选项，不难发现B（和平号在科学实验和太空探索上所取得的“第一”）是合适的答案。

3. E 该段的句子不复杂，我们不难在该段段首句发现“a bad year”，并在段末发现“failures”这样的字眼，对比备选项不难确认E（和平号遇到不少麻烦的一年）是正确的。

4. C 第8段是文章的最后一段。我们不难在该段的段首句（和平号出现的问题与其取得的成就相比是微不足道的）和段尾句（正在兴建的国际太空站将会更好，但是这一成就很大程度上归功于和平号）读出作者对和平号空间站积极的评价。

5． D 从语法上说除了E以外，其他的选项都可以。该句的前面部分说“和平号增加了人们的信念，使人们相信人类在太空长时间的生活是。。”，从搭配语意上看D（很可能的）合适。

6． E 从语法上说剩下的被选项都合适。该句的前句说“在和平号上，美国宇航员创造了。。”，从搭配语意上看E（许多“第一”）合适。

7． B 该句的前面部分说“当我们考虑到和平号的成就，它的缺点是。。”，从搭配语意上看B（算不了什么）合适。

8． F 该句前面部分说“作者认为和平号是。。。”。实际上我们在为文章最后一段选小标题时已经注意到作者对和平号的积极的评价。所以选择答案F（一个巨大的成功）。

第四部分：阅读理解（每题3分，共45分）
下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题，每道题后面有4个选项。请仔细阅读短文并根据短文回答其后面的问题，从4个选项中选择1个最佳答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。

第1篇
The Gene Industry
1．B。该题问“根据文章来看，汽车发动机的尾气可能被什么检测到？”。我们可以先看看备选答案，这是因为这个问题较接近生活，所以可能可以直接借助常识进行推理判断。A说“用渴望吃金属的微生物”，B说“使用酶”， C说“调整发动机”， D说“给予新的生命形式专利权”。不难从常识判断C和D都不正确。再借助原文，利用答案线索词exhaust of a car engine/汽车发动机的尾气和 check/检测，不难在第1段的第2句中发现答案相关句。 该句说“他们梦想把酶放入汽车中去监控（汽车的）尾气并且向微机传送污染数据...”，依据此可判断B是正确的答案。
2．D．该题问“根据文章来看，下面哪一项会最让批评家担心？”。利用critics/批评家 和worry/担心作为答案查找线索词。于是在第2段的段首句中发现答案相关句，该句说“感到不安的批评家，包括许多科学家，担心。。。。”。但该句并没说“最担心什么”，所以接着看随后的一句，该句说“他们想象到的不是石油泄漏，而是可能传播疾病和毁坏人类的微生物的泄漏。”，所以D（未预料的具有破坏性的微生物的释放）是答案。
3．D．该题问“下面哪个术语没有被提到？”。因为第2题的答案在第2段，所以对于第3题我们从第3段开始看。对比备选答案项我们不难发现C在该段的段首句；该段的倒数第3句中有B；而该段的最后一句中含有A，所以D没有在原文中被提到。
4．C．该题问“根据文章来看，西特勒试图做什么？”。因为"Hitler/西特勒"是专有名词，容易在文章中查找，所以我们选定该词为答案线索词。于是我们在第3段的中间部分发现含有该词的句子，该句说“西特勒尝试了这个”，而“this/这个”是回指前面的内容，所以我们再看前面的一个句子，而该句说“我们能试图消除劣等人，而繁殖超强人种吗？”。再看备选答案。A说“为了赢得战争试图从生物的角度改变飞行员”；B说“发展基因农业以满足食物的供应”；C说“杀掉他认为劣等的民族”，；D说“鼓励发展生物武器”，所以C是答案。
5．A．该题问“Jeremy Rifkin和 Ted Howard的话暗示了什么？”。一看“imply/暗示”这个词，我们应该首先明白答案一定不是文章中明明白白写出的句子，而换句话说文章中明明白白写出的句子一定不是答案。选定Jeremy Rifkin和 Ted Howard这两个专有名词为答案线索词。于是我们在最后一段的第2句中找到答案相关句。该句说“如。。。一样，大规模的基因工程有可能引入美国。”，而备选答案项中A说“基因工程的商业用途是不可避免的”，与原文中相关句的说法相符；而B和C都没有涉及到基因--文章的说明对象，所以不可能是答案，而D说“每个新的基因发展的潜在用途都应该受到控制”，可见D的说法太绝对，所以应该不对，所以答案是A。

第2篇
Ford Abandons Electric Vehicles
1．C 第一段第一个句子告诉我们福特汽车公司放弃了电动汽车，第二段说通用汽车公
司和本田汽车公司停止生产电动汽车。
2．B 第四段第一个句子是Tim Holmes对电动汽车未来的评价，他认为未来的交通运输
的大众市场不可能是电动汽车。
3．A 答案的依据是第六段最后一句。
4．C 答案的依据是倒数第二段第二句.
5．D 答案的依据是文章的最后一句：the legislation will be written to allow for low-emission, rather than zero-emission, vehicles.

第3篇
Electronic Teaching
1．D．问题问“电视播放的课程将来自于哪儿？”。A说“明天/未来的学校”，B说“教室”，C说“高大的建筑物”，D说“主控演播室”。借助常识猜D可能正确。而第2段的段首句是答案相关句，该句说是来自4-5个主控演播室。
2．B．问题问“关于教师在教学过程中的作用的下列说法哪个是正确的？”。A，D和C都认为教师不起什么作用，或作用很小， 而B说“教师仍将起重要的作用。”，借助常识判正确。而第2段的第一句说“教师将接管重要的后续阶段。”，也说明B正确。
3．B．问题问“在上课时，学生将怎样？”。第3段中提到了学生和课程。该段中提到“课程是根据学生的能力水平专门设置。”所以答案是C。 C说“按照学生的能力上个性化的课程。”
4．A． 问题问“如果学生有问题， 则学生们怎样做？”。这道题很容易通过常识判断出答案是A。 A说“通过内部通话系统与教师交谈。”
5．D．问题问“计算机除了下列的那种方式以外可以有助于学习？”。 这道题也可借助常识轻松判断D是答案。D 说“如果他们通过所有的必要考试，他们就会得到证书或文凭。”

第五部分：补全短文（每题2分，共10分）
阅读下面的短文，文章中有5处空白，文章后有6组文字，请根据文章的内容选择5组文字，将其分别放会文章原有位置，以恢复文章原貌。请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置。

l 补全短文解题常用思路：
1． 借助空格前后句句意进行判断；
2． 如果空格所在的段落的段首句是观点句，可借助段首句的句意进行判断；
3． 借助空格前后句中的核心词/核心结构与被选项中用词的呼应进行判断；
4． 借助被选项中出现的逻辑词（逻辑连词，逻辑副词）判断空格前句可能的语意。
5． 借助被选项中出现的人称代词，指示代词，定冠词结构在空格前句中寻找相呼应的内容，判断答案。
6． 借助空格在段落中出现的位置猜测空格处的句子可能是具有的语意功能：在段首句/出现的句子可能是观点句/总结句/概括句；在段尾句中出现的句子可能是观点句/总结句/概括句/承上启下句；在文章最后一句中出现的句子往往是观点句或中心引申句。
7． 观点句，举例句，语意转折句, 因果句等常常是考察点。

The first four minutes
1. D． 分析：空格前后句中出现了代词的呼应-- this advice--- that， 结合空格后句意（如果他们那样做的话，很多人的整个生活都会发生改变）判断that指代的内容是前句中提到的“这条建议”，所以判断空格处出现表意为“建议”的句子可能性最大，结合被选项的内容和用词判断D是答案。
2．E．分析：后句中的句意在对具体细节进行描述，句子中代词this的出现，暗示前句中出现的this指代的内容，而且该内容应该让你不高兴， 因此判断E（他的目光不断地越过对方的肩膀，好象希望在房间的另一个角落里找到让他更感到有趣的某个人）是答案。
3 A。分析：空格后句中出现了代词We，而被选项中只有A和C中有代词与We呼应。但A中还有changing our social habits与空格后句中的 become accustomed to any changes在语意上呼应，所以答案是A。
4． B。分析：前文中出现了“关于如何‘对待陌生人’的描述”，而且在下文中提到了“家庭成员（husband and wife or a parent and child）”，因此判断B是答案。
5 C。 分析：后句中的代词we在C中才有呼应的代词，而且在文章最后出现观点句是通常论述文的发展特点，因此判断C正确。

第六部分：完型填空 （每题1分，共15分）
阅读下面的短文，文中有15处空白，每处空白给出了4个选项，请根据短文的内容从4个选项中选择1个最佳答案，并涂在答题卡相应的位置上。

l 完型填空解题思路：
1． 借助被选项的特点缩小答案范围，确认答案判断方向；
2． 借助空格两端的搭配结构特点判断答案；
3． 借助空格所在句子中用词特点猜测答案；
4． 借助空格所在句子句意判断答案；
5． 围绕文章中心（标题反应内容）猜测答案；
6． 借助上下文用词/语意判断答案；

Preferences Vary on Circumstance of Dying
1． C。 分析：根据语感：good or bad（好的或坏的）直接判断答案。同时了解到标题中的Preferences
2．B．分析：考察上下文中的用词。B与前文中的terminally呼应，而且“致命的心脏疾病或癌症”正好符合or要求前后词义对等的特点。
3．C．分析：被选项中包含标题词或文章主题词时，答案往往出自是标题词或文章主题词的选项。考察文章中心。
4．A. 分析：考察文章中心（态度不同）。该题也可直接借助句意解答。

5． B。分析：考察习惯搭配结构。
6．B. 分析：结合文章主题用词，直接选择dying。
7．D．分析：根据被选项的搭配使用特点（regard..as..（把..看成..）/ want sth.），直接缩小答案范围，再借助句句意判断答案。
8．C. 分析：根据被选项的搭配使用特点(mean sth./mean to do sth(打算做..).; present sth. to sb. / consider sth. (as) sth./把..看成..; take sth. )和句意判断C是答案。
9．D．分析：借助句子特殊结构：some…other…判断该句讲述两种情况，所以答案选择D（“而”，引出两种不同的形成对比的情况）。
10．A．分析：考察上下文用词的呼应（前后句句意的承接）：前句中提到了“家人”。
11．B．分析：考察搭配结构(at the beginning of../at the end of ../at the time of../
in the period of..)和句意，判断B（(在临死的)时刻）是答案。
12．B．分析：该句中的also暗示该句在句意和结构上与前句的紧密呼应关系，借助前句用词（mean），直接判断答案B。
13．C．分析：借助与空格处在含义上相关的词语concerns（担心），结合上文内容判断C（使负担/给予麻烦）最合适。其实下文中有内容上的提示。
14．A．分析：借助搭配结构含义和常识（病人会对家人产生情感方面或经济方面的影响）判断A（经济方面的）最合适。
15．D．分析：借助习惯搭配结构（be worried about sth./ be worried that..）直接判断答案。
