听力原文： My husband and children think they are very lucky that they are

living and that it's Christmas again. They can't see that we live on a dirty street

in a dirty house among people who aren't very good. But Johnny and children

can't see this. What a pity it is that our neighbors have to make happiness out

of all this dirt. I decide that my children must get out of this. The money that

we've saved isn't nearly enough.

The McGaritys have money but they are so proud. They look down upon the

poor. The McGarity girl just yesterday stood out there in the street eating from

a bag of candy while a ring of hungry children watched her. I saw those

children looking at her and crying in their hearts; and when she couldn't eat

any more she threw the rest down the sewer. Why, is it only because they have

money? There is more to happiness than money in the world, isn't there?

Miss Jackson who teaches at the Settlement House isn't rich, but she knows

things. She understands people. Her eyes look straight into yours when she

talks with you. She can read your mind. I'd like to see the children be like

Applications soon come from people of all walks of life. But apart from

enthusiasm and patience a volunteer worker also needs other qualities such as

foreign language proficiency driving skills and first-aid knowledge etc.

Beijing Olympic Games is very meaningful. For the country it saves the

operating costs for the organizing committee. Though pre-event training

entails large investments volunteers' contribution to the overall human

resources is invaluable. Also for the individuals we can broaden our horizons

through participation of this international pageant. For university students in

particular Olympics volunteer work helps us to gain life experience and

cultivate our sense of social responsibility. To be sure besides a sense of

honour and achievement volunteer work is both time- and energy-consuming.

Do the Viewers Like Watching Sport Programs? The sport programs

have been enjoying a boom among TV viewers. According to the above graph

78 percent of TV viewers frequently watch sports which is obviously far

ahead of other televised events. News follows second with 68 percent of

viewers compared with 54 percent movies watchers. Documentaries seem

preferable among people than the specials do with 42 percent and 20 percent

respectively. A passion for sports has taken possession of thousands of people.

One of the masons perhaps is that sports provide an outlet for open-up

emotions. People extract themselves from routine life and fully express their

feelings towards sports. Stimulated by the excitement they applaud for the

victory and hold their breath for the exhilarating competition. In a sense sports

are a heaven for people to escape from boredom and tension. Enthusiasm for

sports also reflects people's desire to transcend geographical and cultural

limits. Freed from border and language difference sports are accessible to

everyone. People will no longer be confined to a certain living circle. They

can share the same fantasy with the viewers at another hemisphere. Taken by

sports they can roam from country to country continent to continent. Sports

thus become a common language for all the people throughout the

status 解析：见小标题The English下第一段第五句话。

yprivacy 解析：题干中的be related closely with的意思是“与……有紧密联系”，这与原文中have a lot going for意思相近(其中go

for的意思是“适用于”)。因此后者的主语privacy就是本题的答案。

解析：由题干中的The black/white trick，provide和argument定位到文章第一个小标题下第一段：The black/white，or either/or，trick is

making a statement that provides insufficient options to your

argument． "Love it or leave it" was a big slogan of the l960s，and it sounds

logical. Nevertheless，it provides no other 题干含义是The

black/white trick可以提供两个以上选择可能。联系原文，provides

insufficient options to your argument“提供有限的回应选择”和Nevertheless, it provides no other possible options“不能提供更多其他的可能”可推知The black/white trick只提供两种可能，题干说多于两种与原文不符，故本题答案为N。

bedsidethe bedside 解析：由题干关键词Registration可先将答案定位至第二个小标题Registration下，又因题干in urgent cases与原文the

patient's condition is life-threatening同义，因此定位到第二段。If the

patient's condition is life-threatening or if the patent arrives by ambulance，this step may be completed later at the bedside，故可知答案。

15.C解析：本题定位信息是Terminator 和 My Big Fat Greek Wedding，从而锁定Action Sells Film and Television部分。该部分第四段提到，Terminator《终结者》以及My Big Fat Wedding《我的希腊婚礼》都是较成功的电影，但像《终结者》这样的电影更有可能大卖。而文中并没有提及这两部电影的票房收入哪个多哪个少的问题，题干表述在文中找不到依据，因此答案为NG。

16.D解析：事实细节题 。题干问提前退休计划的第一件需考虑的事是什么。题干中the first thing to do与原文the first step相对应。原句表语部分to figure out exactly how much money you have right now回答该问题，即弄清楚自己当前有多少财产，D项“准确弄清你的财富数额”与原文相符。

17.D解析：原文该句中的定语从句who was the wrong kind of dieter表明Dr．Doffs Mccubbrey也曾经节食15年，因此本题应选D。

18.C

off

to recommended the candidate they were interviewingnot to

recommended the candidate they were interviewing 解析：文章倒数第六段中提到在实验当中，当招聘人员决定不向公司推荐该名候选人的时候，他们就打一个响指让外面的作者听到。

21.B

22.D解析：对话中男士欢迎女士回来，女士回答希望能够把落下的功课补回来(I just hope I can catch up on all the work I've missed)，表明女士有很多功课要完成。故正确答案为D项。

23.D解析：Which of the following is NOT the characteristic of Cirque du

Soleil?

信息明示题。女士说太阳剧团的风格是其他马戏团所没有的．包括柔和、浪漫的灯光，从古典音乐到爵士乐的奇幻音乐，更为与众不同的是那些色彩丰富、如童话一般的戏装，故排除A、B、C。男士说自己去看马戏表演时总是感到有些内疚，因为用动物娱乐人类似乎很残忍，女士则说太阳剧团不用动物表演，故选D。

24.B

25.D解析：Who usually steal cars?

信息明示题。文章最后提到，最常偷车的人是joyriders aged about 15 to

21 and professionals，其中 joyriders指的是喜欢驾车兜风的人，所以D正确。

26.C解析：说话者在开头提到，自己一家住在一条很脏的街道，家也很

破，周围都是穷人，然后说I decide that my children must get out of this，由此可知，说话者对现在的生活不满，故答案为[C]。

30.C

31.A解析：事实细节题。原文第三段说“小学生也可以有和大孩子一样的暴力，令人生畏。”这与A 选项的意思相同。

解析：从语法结构看，该空应填入一个副词修饰rising，符合这一要求的词有C)steeply, M)highly和L)hard。从句意来看。空格所在句提到二十世纪70至80年代人口增长处于……状态，前文第一段曾提到二十世纪世界人口呈爆发式增长，因此填入词应表示增长速度之快，steeply最符合语境。

33.A解析：推断题。根据倒数第二段首句“人们正在对其他的一些解决交通问题的办法进行试验和研究，包括……”可推断出A“人们正在寻求更好的解决交通问题的办法”正确。

ting→estimatedestimating→estimated 解析：an estimated 47

million people 约4,700万人。过去分词estimated表示“据估计”。

→forof→for 解析：本题辨析介词搭配的误用。在表示……的理由或原因时，与reason固定的搭配的介词为for，而不是of，for表示“为……，针对……”。

36.第二个to→/第二个to→/ 解析：用于表示接着提到的事情更不可能时，用固定表达let alone“更不用说”。

ary→unnecessarynecessary→unnecessary 解析：语篇逻辑错误

此处but提示与上文形成转折关系。上文说“确实能够帮助一些人继续生存”，那么下文转折后的意思就应该是否定的。另外necessary与下文的harmful用and连接是矛盾的，所以要用表示否定意义的unnecessary。

38.a改为ana改为an 解析：因为后面跟的是“e”打头的“extremely”。

se→increasedecrease→increase 解析：根据句意应该是允许不利的情况，因此应该是增长而不是减少。
