句意：——这是你第一次到北京吗？——不，但是从我上一次到这里来，已经有三年了。
This is the first time that…是固定句型，that从句中用现在完成时，排除A和B，题干中表示“上一次到北京”，是发生在过去的事情，用一般过去时，所以排除D，故选C。
【点睛】特殊句式：It is the first time that …当前面是is的时候，后面使用现在完成时；当前面是was的时候，后面使用过去完成时。
本题前面是is，所以用现在完成时。

Washington, November 1, 2012 (CNN) -- After years of planning and months of campaigning（竞选）, the most expensive presidential race in history comes down to a final five-day whirlwind of speeches and television ads in the eight states still up for grabs.President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney plan to hold virtually nonstop events between now and the Tuesday election considered too close to call.The focus is on battleground states worth 95 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win. Both sides are trying to close the deal with a decreasing number of uncommitted(未表态的) voters, while making sure supporters actually cast ballots.That means a game of campaign chess that started Thursday, with appearances by the candidates (候选人)and their assistants as well as advertising dollars allocated to the places considered most vital to success.Concluding a race expected to cost more than $6 billion overall, Obama and Romney and their running mates will hit all the battleground states -- Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Ohio, New Hampshire, Nevada, Virginia and Wisconsin. The campaigns also are unloading a blast of television ads and mailings that threaten to overwhelm voters already saturated with politicking. Perhaps no one said it better than 4-year-old Abigael Evans of Fort Collins, Colorado, who -- according to NPR -- cried after listening to more electioncoverage on the radio and told her mother, ‘I'm tired of Barack Obama and Mitt Romney.’75. The underlined phrase “too close to call” probably means .A. a game that one side is clearly winning.B. a tie in which neither side seems likely to winC. so close that you need not use a telephoneD. a visit close to one’s home state76. What is the focus of the last-5 -day campaigns for both presidential candidates?A. To make sure that their supporters understand their policies.B. To collect enough money for campaign ads.C. To paint their rival as black as possible.D. To win over the voters who have not decide which candidate to vote for.77. The public generally feel ________ about these last-days election efforts.A. excited B．disappointed C．annoyed D．relieved参考答案：BDC19. A woman was caught trying to get her boyfriend out of Puente Ayala prison by packing him in a large suitcase. They almost got away with it, but guards became suspicious after seeing the woman struggling with the suitcase.25-year-old Souda arrived at the Puente Ayala prison in Barcelona, Venezuela, last weeks, to visit her boyfriend, Jose Antonio, who was serving a sentence of 9 years and 8 months for stealing cars. She had brought their six-year-old daughter and a large pink suitcase, which is common for an overnight stay by family members in South American prison. Little did theguards know that Souda and Jose Antoni were planning to leave the prison together the next day, as a big happy family.Their plan seemed to go smoothly as the woman carrying the bright pink baggage didn’t attract the guards’ attention, but it failed when they finally noticed the short woman str uggling to pull the seemingly light suitcase out of the door. They stopped Souda and asked her to open the suitcase so they could check its items. Left with no choice but to meet the guards’ demand, the woman opened the suitcase to show young Jose Antonio looking like a professional contortionist (专业柔术演员)and covered with different clothing items.Puente Ayala guards sent the car thief back to the prison. Souda has been caught by guards and is waiting for official charges, and the couple’s six-year-old daughter, Mary, has been placed in the care of social services.If only Souda had gone to the gym to improve her strength before going through escaping from prison with her lover, things might have gone differently.5. The underlined word “suspicious” in Paragr aph 1 can be best replaced by_____.A. pleasedB. doubtfulC. worriedD. violent6. Where did Souda put her husband while leaving the prison?A. In a car.B. In a boxC. In a suitcase.D. In a bag7. Mary lives in the care of social services because______.A. she broke the lawB. her parents’ marriage has endedC. her parents are both caught by guardsD. her mother is busy building up her body8.

AWhen I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called “Brownie”. My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games, Brownie, in return. loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up(咬破)one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, ”Bad girl.” she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet, she went everywhere with us .People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she’d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we’d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull her hair. she never barked(吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss days when she was with us.21. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family?A. Look at them sadly.B. Touch them gently.C. Play games with them.D. Keep them company.22. We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Brownie__________.A. world eat anything when hungryB. disliked the author’s dadC. loved playing hide-and-seekD. felt sorry for her mistake23. Some people got frightened by Brownie when she__________.A. barkedB. smiledC. rushed to themD. tried to be funny24.Which of the following best describes Brownie?A. CaringB. PoliteC. BraveD. ShyBI was never particularly kind to my grandfather. I remember him coming into the sitting room one night, and when he went to sit down, I said to my brother, “I hope he doesn’t sit down.” I was 12 years old then.My grandfather wrote poetry(诗) on great rolls of thin white paper with a paintbrush, but over the years I wouldn’t listen to him read his poems. I’d let my Chinese go by then, which made listening to him too much of an effort.On Monday, he’d be sitting at Dragon Boat Restaurant with other old Chinese men. Tuesdays to Friday, he was at a small square table by himself with a pot of tea and the Chinese newspaper. But he was diagnosed (诊断) with brain cancer and, three months later, he died.At the funeral(葬礼), my sadness was overshadowed by a sense of regret. I’d rejected my grandfather thecommonest of kindness. I was 16 years old.I am now 26. A few weeks ago, during a family dinner at a Chinese restaurant, the waiter complimented (恭维) my mum on my speaking to her in Chinese, saying with a sigh that his own kids could hardly speak a Chinese sentence. Mom told him I had stopped speaking Chinese for some years and then had suddenly started up again in my late teens.I have often wondered if my mum knows the connection between Granddad’s death and my ever-improving Chinese. Whenever I am stuck for a word, I ask her. Whenever I am with her, or relatives, I practise.

It moves through water at a speed of up to 20-25 kilo-meters a day and can stay at sea for up to six months before needing a battery recharged. This special character results from its special propulsion system (动力系统). Unlike a traditional submarine, the Seaglider does not have a propeller (螺旋桨). It has an air tank that is emptied and filled to adjust (调整) depth, as well as a pair of wings that help to guide and lead the submarine.A traditional submarine, on the other hand, “puts water inside tanks to make it heavier, or it will expel (排出) the water to make it lighter,”explained Frederick, a professor at the University of Washington.Each time the Seaglider comes to the surface, it sends the data which it collects to its controllers by satellite. Operators can also send the submarine new information. For example, they can change its course in their office through giving the computer orders.Seagliders are already being used for scientific research, such as environmental studies. iRobot also hopes to sell the submarine to the army.“These things can go out there and keep an eye on large areas of ocean. They can go for thousands of mileson their own. At the same time, you can tell them to stay in one place and they can circle,”says Helen Greiner, chair woman of iRobot. “This is science fiction(小说) stuff in many ways, but it’s really out there and working.”28.

The flight had been delayed by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to takeoff. I had my iPod in place and a new book to read. Then, over the loudspeaker（广播）came the pilot’s voice: “The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire. We regret that we must cancel this flight.”The passengers’ re sponses that announcement led to were interesting. One man close tome began to argue with a flight attendant. A couple in another row complained loudly. A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front of him. Yet some passengers responded differently. An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments (行李厢）. A teenager, rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers, stopped to help a woman with a disability. The lady sitting next to me laughed and said: “Hey, it’s not the end of the world,” before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them. The wisest among us have a remarkable ability to maintain grounded when times get tough.No life is perfect; mine certainly isn’t. We all must face challenges, both large and small. You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circumstances. We always have the choice to be strong and kind when things fall apart.That’s grace under pressure. My seatmate was right—things could have been so much worse. Anyway, I am safe. I have my health. I have two wonderful children. I have work I love and so much to be grateful for. Sure I now have to wait a few hours to catch the next flight home.32. What caused the passengers’ different re sponses?A. The loudspeaker.B. The delay of the flight.C. The ground crew’s fault.D. The pilot’s announc ement.33. Who turned his anger on the seat?A. The teenager helping the disabled.B. The old man taking bags down.C. The man in a dark suit.D. The man close to me.34. What did the woman sitting next to the author do?A. She helped a disabled woman.B. She made a phone call to her family.C. She helped others carry their luggage.D. She told moving stories to her children.35. What can we learn from the story?A. Our life is full of ups and downs.B. It is natural to be scared under pressure.C. We should help each other in times of difficulty.D. We should be positive and calm when life is hard.第三部分英语知识运用（共三节，满分55分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
