第三部分 閱讀理解 A The success story started in northern Italy towards the end of the Second World War. Leone Benetton had a bicycle rental (租賃) business in the town of Treviso. He wanted his oldest son Luciano to study and become a doctor. After Leone died, the family was poor and Luciano decided to leave school and get a job. He found work in a clothing store but soon had his own ideas and started a family clothing company producing colorful woolen sweaters for people only used to wearing dull colors. Shops selling only Benetton sweaters opened in many Italian cities and by 1974 there were stores in France, Germany and Belgium. It was clear that at this stage the success of the Benetton business lay in the strength of the family. In 1975 Luciano married the 20-year-old Marina Salomon who worked in one of his shops. After careful research, Benetton opened his first shop in the USA, in Manhattan, New York, where it attracted some very special customers including Princess Diana and Jackie Onassis. In 1982 Luciano was introduced to Oliviero Toscani, the photographer who was to change the image (形象) of Benetton forever. Although Benetton was growing very quickly, they needed an international image and for this reason in the early 1980s they decided to provide money for Formula 1 motor racing. This was followed by the advertising campaigns (廣告攻勢) for which the company became famous. Luciano Benetton succeeded in turning the company he started in the 1950s into one of the world's most successful businesses but he paid a high personal price. He spent so much of his life working and traveling that he lost touch with his family and friends. 36.What did Luciano Benetton's father hope he would do? A Sell clothe B Build a factor C Learn medicin D Run a bicycle busines 37.Who played an important role in the early development of Luciano's business?

B People who love music, who can lose themselves in a book, or who can spend hours painting a picture of a mountain, know the deep satisfaction that can be found in art. It is not easy to express this satisfaction in words. But, in some partly mysterious (神秘的) way, works of art are among the things of highest value in our lives. A fine piece of music, a masterpiece of painting, or a first-class play has the power to hold our fullest attention. We are completely lost in it, and everything works out right. The music comes to the right close at the right time and in the right way. The play ends, not necessarily on a happy note, but in a way that seems enjoyable. As we get to know more about painting, its parts seem to belong together and to be made for one another. We see harmony (和諧) in the object and feel harmony within ourselves. When the beautiful experience has ended, we often feel uplifted and refreshed. Our eyes and ears, or our understanding of other persons and values, may be sharpened and improved. We may feel more at home with ourselves. Works of art have value for us in some such ways as these. It is this value that marks the difference between great art and simple entertainment(娛樂). A work that is fairly easy to understand takes little effort on our part. It may give us pleasure, but it does not touch our feelings or attract out attention at a deep level. 41.What is the main idea of the text? A Music has a power to catch all our attentio B Art of high values can improve us as human being C It's difficult to express our satisfaction from works of ar D Simple entertainment is easy to understand and can give us pleasur 42.One most important value from enjoying great art lies in ______.

D Dolphins are interesting animals. Working with them is fun, because you never know what they will come up with to surprise you. Remember when your mom used to cut up your food? Circe, a show dolphin, won't eat fish unless someone cuts the fins (魚鰭) off. Diana Reiss, a scientist who worked with Circe, knew that. But one day she forgot. Reiss was training Circe to "stay at station" in front of her. Every time the dolphin swam off, Reiss gave her a time-out by backing away from the side of the pool and standing at a distance. When Circe stayed, Reiss fed her a piece of fish. But then she gave her a piece with fins by mistake. Circe looked at Reiss, spat(吐) out the fish, and swam across the pool. She took an upright position in the water and simple "stood" there. Circe was communicating (交流) loud and clear. "I felt as if I had gotten the time-out! " says Reiss. Another dolphin, Pete, enjoyed his meals of fish served up by his trainer. But a wild bird started to show up at every feeding to steal some of the dolphin's supper. Pete was definitely not happy about that. One day when Pete's trainer gave him frozen fish, Pete let them sink to the bottom of his pool. Between shows he dived down and pushed eight fish up to the surface, and managed to keep all of them afloat. For five minutes, the bird watched anxiously. Finally, the bird took the bait. When it did, Pete caught the bird's feet and pulled it underwater! Then took care of that little thief. 49.Reiss would feed Circe a fish ______. A before Circe gave a performance B when Circe followed the instruction C the moment Circe swam close to Reiss D each time Reiss left the side of the pool 50.When Circe "stood" there, what message did she try to send to Reiss?

A was trained to stay at station B often plays with food before he eats C likes to eat fish without fins D was smart in teaching the bird a lesson 52.The underlined words "took the bait" in the last paragraph means "______". A was fooled B took actions C made a decision D went out of the way

第二節(jié) 書面表達(dá) 假定你是李明，準(zhǔn)備畢業(yè)后去美國繼續(xù)求學(xué)，想在學(xué)校BBS上發(fā)布一個(gè)英語帖子，找一個(gè)母語為英語的留學(xué)生做語言交流伙伴(language partner)。 要點(diǎn)： 1．找伙伴的原因； 2．自己有教授漢語的經(jīng)驗(yàn)； 3．希望提高自己的英語口語能力； 4．需要找一名美國留學(xué)生。 注意： 1．詞數(shù)100詞左右，開頭已為你寫好。 2．請直接將書面表達(dá)寫在上面。
答案及解析： 1.D[解析] 本題考查對句意的理解。前半部分的句意為“我認(rèn)為基爾不是個(gè)好老師”，所以后半部分應(yīng)該為“她對孩子沒有多大耐心”，所以答案為D。 2.C[解析] 本題考查情態(tài)動(dòng)詞的用法。句意為“我要和Sue說下午餐約會的事，由于我感到不太舒服，所以今天不能和她見面了”。would有“很想”的意思，所以答案為C。 3.C[解析] 本題考查祈使句的用法。本句意思為“把鑰匙給我，因?yàn)槟悴辉陂_車的狀態(tài)”。祈使句要使用動(dòng)詞原形，所以答案為C。 4.D[解析] 本題考查賓語從句的用法。hate后面缺少一個(gè)賓語。本句的意思是“我不喜歡辦公室里沒有電腦”。it指代了there's no computer in the office這種情況，是形式賓語，所以答案為D。 5.A[解析] 本題考查but的用法。本句的意思是“我除了最后一章節(jié)，其他的都讀了”。toward“朝，向”；until“直到……為止”；beside“在旁邊，在附近”。由排除法可知只有A符合句意。 6.D[解析] 本題考查定語從句的用法。此句的先行詞為at the stage，表示一個(gè)地點(diǎn)，因此選擇 where。本句意思為“約瑟夫正處在這么一個(gè)階段，現(xiàn)在他只能說出單個(gè)的詞而不會說完整的句子”。 7.C[解析] 本題考查詞組意義辨析。look for“尋找”；set up“建立”；turn to“求助于，詢問，開始，轉(zhuǎn)向”；change into“把……變成，換(衣)”。句意為“因?yàn)橛蛢r(jià)越來越貴，所以很多人都開始乘坐公共交通工具，所以答案為C。 8.B[解析] 本題考查情景會話。句意為“——你能為我扶下門嗎?——非常樂意�！薄胺浅芬狻奔磜ith pleasure,這是習(xí)慣性用法，所以答案為B。A和C都是別人說感謝自己說的“不用謝”，D為別人幫自己沒有起作用等時(shí)答謝時(shí)說的。 9.D[解析] 本題考查時(shí)態(tài)。此句表達(dá)的是將來的含義，A、B、C都不符合，只有D為現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)表將來。 10.D[解析] 本題考查連詞的用法。從后半句可知“并沒有產(chǎn)生多大的損害”，因此前后應(yīng)該是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，所以答案為D。 11.D[解析] 本題考查情景會話。句意為“——對不起，我是不是擋住你了，我來挪一挪�！兄x了!”四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中表達(dá)感激的只有“Thank you for your kindness”。 12.B[解析] 本題考查時(shí)態(tài)。句意為“從你度假回來就一直沒有看見你。玩得開心嗎?”從前半句可知，假期是很久以前的事了，因此應(yīng)該用過去時(shí)。 13.A[解析] 本題考查時(shí)態(tài)。句意為“從你度假回來就一直沒有看見你。玩得開心嗎?”從前半句可知，假期是很久以前的事了，因此應(yīng)該用過去時(shí)。 14.B[解析] 本題考查賓補(bǔ)的用法。約翰是讓自己為人理解，因此要用動(dòng)詞的過去分詞作賓補(bǔ)，因此選B。 15.B[解析] 本題考查冠詞的用法。本句中，spend time為短語，“花時(shí)間跟嬰兒呆在一起”，a feeling指“一種感覺”，所以答案為B。 16.A[解析] 句意為“他正在講關(guān)于這種神秘力量的時(shí)候，就在那個(gè)時(shí)候門突然開了�！眞hen有“在那個(gè)時(shí)候，當(dāng)時(shí)，其時(shí)”的意思，符合句意。while的意思是“與……同時(shí)”；then，later都是“稍后，然后”的意思，均不符題意。 17.B[解析] 此句的意思是“一個(gè)婦女手里拎著兩只鵝走了進(jìn)來”，carry有“拿、提”的意思，符合句意；cook“烹飪，烹調(diào)；deliver“遞送，傳送，運(yùn)載，發(fā)言”；exam“考試，檢驗(yàn)”，均不符合題意。 18.A[解析] 根據(jù)后面的frightened 判斷，B、C排除。surprisingly“令人吃驚地”，放人句中為“令人吃驚地笑”，顯然不符合句意，故A(表“緊張地”)正確。
19.C[解析] 根據(jù)文章意思，死鵝還會叫，應(yīng)該是一件—十分奇怪的事情。A、B、D顯然不符合文意，只有unusual的意思是“不尋常的、罕見的”，所以答案為C。 20.A[解析] 此句的意思是“一聽到這個(gè)，當(dāng)時(shí)我父親臉色就蒼白起來”。on/upon+動(dòng)詞的進(jìn)行時(shí)表示“一……就”，為固定搭配，因此選A。注意：“at+名詞”也常表示一聽到，如：At the good news，we were very excited。 21.D[解析] [解析] 根據(jù)句意，此處應(yīng)為轉(zhuǎn)折。雖然父親相信世界上有神秘力量存在，但是真的一旦出現(xiàn)奇怪的現(xiàn)象，他也是覺得難以置信，尤其是死鵝竟然會叫。 22.D[解析] 根據(jù)上下文，此句的意思是“作者忍受不了死鵝發(fā)出的聲音，嚇得直冒冷汗，直想奪門而逃”。remember“記得”；understand“理解”；describe“描述”。只有D符合題意。 23.B[解析] 根據(jù)上下文，作者無法忍受死鵝發(fā)出的聲音，手腳冰涼，因此選cold。 24.C[解析] 根據(jù)下文，父親甚至是跳著離開了桌子，說明他也很害怕，所以答案為C。 25.A[解析] 本句的意思是死鵝還會叫，婦女很害怕，但又舍不得，不過相信神秘力量的父親建議把它們?nèi)拥簟hrow them out“把它們?nèi)拥簟�；set them free“把它們釋放”；leave them behind“丟掉”；sell them out“賣掉它們”，所以答案為A。 26.B[解析] a fortune意為“一筆財(cái)富”。從上文可知，婦女家很窮苦，舍不得扔，故此，co
