In the smallenterprise you operate primarily through personal contacts. In the large enterprise you have established "policies", "channels" of organization, and fairly rigid procedures. In the small enterprise you have, moreover, immediate effectiveness in a very small area. You can see the effect of your work and of your decisions right away, once you are a little above the ground floor. In the large enterprise even the man at the top is only part of a big machine. To be sure, his actions affect a much greater area than the actions and decisions of the man in the small organization, but his effectiveness is remote, indirect, and difficult to see at first sight. In a small and even in a middle-sized business you are normally exposed to all kinds of experiences, and expected to do a great many things without too much help or guidance. In the large organization you are normally taught one thing thoroughly. In the small one the danger is of becoming a jack-of-all-trades and master of none. In the large one it is of becoming the man who knows more and more about less and less.There is one other important thing to consider: do you get a deep sense of satisfaction from being a member of a well-known organization——General Motors, the Bell Telephone System, the government? Or is it more important to you to be a well-known and important figure within your own small pond? There is a basic difference between the satisfaction that comes from being a member of a large, powerful, and generally known organization, and the one that comes from being a member of family; between impersonal grandeur(高贵) and personal——often much too personal—intimacy〔亲密〕; between life in a small office on the top floor of a skyscraper and life in a crossroads gas station.60．What can we know about large enterprises in the first paragraph?A．New technology is employed quickly．B．Most people work efficiently.C．One's effectiveness is difficult to see．D．One can get promotion easily.61．In the first paragraph, the underlined part "a jack-of-all-trades" refers to a person who___.A．doesn't know anything about business B．is very capable as a businessmanC．knows a little bit of everything D．is very knowledgeable about trade 62．According to the writer, if you are interested in personal intimacy, you should work A．for General Motors B．for the governmentC．in a large enterprise D．in a small enterprise63．The writer of this passage ____.A．compares the large enterprise with the small enterprise objectivelyB．obviously prefers to work for a large enterpriseC．intends to show the advantages of working in a small businessD．explains the disadvantages of being a top leader in a large businessCAt Cornell University, the "Hi, Mom!" view went online in April, a few months after the university replaced an old and fixed camera. The new system had more bells and whistles, but took in a narrower view. Carrie Sanzone, who examines the camera, says the feedback(反响) is divided into three kinds: alumni〔毕业生，校友) who preferred the original postcard-perfect view of McGFraw Tower; campus staff who wanted an eye over Cayuga Lake to know what- to wear at lunch; and parents who admitted to observing the ant-sized figures on Ho Plaza for signs of their kids.Ms. Sanzone thought that if many people wanted to see their children, maybe the school should help them out. This spring she programmed the camera, so users could choose betweenthree settings: McGraw Tower (with sky and lake), Ho Plaza, and "Hi, Mom!". Web visitors get control of the camera for 30 seconds at a time.The school doesn't track(追踪) the use of the "Hi, Mom!" setting, but says its web video page gets 50,000 to 60,000 views a month——making it one of the most visited pages on the university's website.Evidence suggests the "Hi, Mom!" view is a bigger hit with Mom than her children.When the camera first went up, Ms. Mathis says, her mother would freely call to check if she was near it. "My mom said, 'Every time you go back to the campus store, you need to call! You need to call!' I did not call her every time I went to the campus store, " she said.Judging from the e-mails to Cornell's webmaster, however, anything is better than nothing. One mother said, "It's just wonderful, even if my son has only gone there once the whole term." 64．The advantage of the new system was that ____.A．it had more bells and whistles B．it took in a narrower viewC．it went online D．it was at Cornell University65．According to Ms．Carrie Sanzone, the campus staff wanted ____.A．to see the original postcard-perfect view of McGraw TowerB．to see Cayuga Lake in order to know what to wear at lunch timeC．to see the ant-sized figures on Ho Plaza for signs of their kidsD．to keep in touch with the students' parents66．The passage mainly talks about ____.A．the complaints made by the alumni about the web videoB．the feedback given by the parents about the web videoC．the establishment of the web camera at the universityD．the discussion on how to improve the web of the university67．From the passage, we can know that ____.A．Cornell University tries every means to meet the needs of societyB．the students will contact their parents when they are on campusC．the students are not allowed to appear on the camera freelyD．parents like to visit the web video more than their childrenDYou can improve your child's hearing memory considerably. Once his hearing memory has been greatly improved, he'll be able to use and remember what he listens to in class. The success of these suggestions depends upon our ability to use your child's natural desire to get involved in games he finds simple and fun.A good way to begin is to read aloud a sentence from a book suitable for your child's reading age. Then ask your youngster to repeat the sentence back to you correctly. Next, reread the sentence, leaving out a particular word. See if your child can identify the word you left out. At the beginning use only simple sentences. Gradually, increase the length of the sentences. Make sure you don't rush things along too quickly, or your child may become discouraged and tired of the game.Take your child shopping with you often. He's to remember a list of items you want to buy in the supermarket. At first, ask him to remember only a few things. Then, as he shows increased ability to remember, make the list longer and longer. Praise him often and warmly when he shows increased ability to remember things. He'll become proud of his "good" memory and will happily play the game.Encourage your child to learn easy and short poems. As his ability to do this becomes stronger, encourage him to remember longer poems. Do the same with songs.68．The suggestions will be successful if you____.A．find simple and funny games for your childB．can stimulate your child's interest in the gamesC．force your child to get involved in more practiceD．improve your own hearing memory first69．The purpose of asking your child to repeat what you read is ____.A．to practice his pronunciation B．to develop his reading skillsC．to help him remember what he hears D．to play a simple game he may find fun 70．The third paragraph mainly talks about ____.A．another way to improve you child's hearing memoryB．how you should do shopping along with your childC．how to remember the items you want to buyD．the way you help your child do shopping71．The last sentence "Do the same with songs" means you should encourage your child to learn and remember ____.A．songs in the same way as he does with poemsB．poems in the same way as he does with songsC．the poems and songs which are similar in meaningD．those songs that have the same meaning as poemsEThe main camera abroad NASA's(美国宇航局) Hubble Space Telescope(哈伯太空望远镜) had something go wrong suddenly, and this problem could delay or cancel much of the work. Hubble will continue to observe the heavens with its three other instruments, however.On 27 January, Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) switched itself into a protective "safe mode" after a short in its electronics. NASA engineers believe the fault has killed the camera's ability to see far and wide. "It's really a blow to Hubble science; there's no way around that fact," says Holland Ford, an astronomer at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, and main investigator for ACS. He adds that of the 800 current proposals(计划) for using Hubble, two thirds are linked to the ACS.Engineers will try to determine if the camera can be repaired when the Space Shuttle(航天飞机) meets with Hubble in 2008. But that's a long shot, says David Leckrone, senior project scientist for Hubble. A fix would likely require opening up ACS and even breaking down other equipment, Leckrone says.During that visit, astronauts will also set a new camera that can see in infrared(红外线的) and ultraviolet wavelengths and will be able to perform some of ACS's work. Until then, some projects will stop, says Adam Riess, an astronomer at Johns Hopkins and Space Telescope Science Institute who uses supemovae(超新星) to study the expansion〔膨胀〕of the universe. "I don't think we'll make a lot of progress until the serving(检修) works," Riess says. "It will be tiring to wait."After the ACS's primary electronics failed last year, some officials issued a call for proposals for surveys that rely on Hubble's other instruments. In December, they picked 6 of 34 suggestions to form a schedule. The officials have also given researchers an extra two weeks to modify their latest proposals. So from now until its new camera arrives, Hubble will be switching to plan B.72．From the passage, we know that Hubble ____．A．is the space telescope which is used to study the expansion of the universeB．is equipped with four instruments used to observe spaceC．has stopped working because of an electrical shortD．often meets with the Space Shuttle and works together with it73．The problem with the telescope's camera ____．A．will destroy its ability to see far and wideB．won't be a blow to NASA and ACSC．doesn't affect scientists' plans at allD．will make scientists once again use the Space Shuttle74．What can we infer from the passage?A．Repairing the equipment will take a great investment from society．B．The camera and other equipment will take a great investment from society．C．The repairs will destroy most of NASA’s research plans．D．It is likely that the Space Shuttle won’t be launched until 2008．75．The passage is mainly about.A．when to get the Hubble telescope to workB．why to repair the Hubble telescopeC．how to give the Hubble telescope a proper fixD．why to launch the Space Shuttle again参考答案56—60 BDCAC 61—65 CDAAB 66—70 CDBCA 71—75 ABABC。

Well-nourished children tend to do all the following but _________.【细节题】7. Which of the following statement is NOT true?【判断题】8. Malnutrition may be caused by __________. 【细节题】9. It is implied in the passage that ________. 【推理题】10. What‟s the main idea of the passage?【主旨题】篇章解析Nutritional (营养的) status affects children‟s behavior. Well-nourished(营养良好的)children are more alert(警惕的，警觉的)and attentive(专心的)and are better able to benefit from physical(身体的)and learning experience. Poorly nourished(营养不良) children may be quiet and withdrawn(沉默寡言的), or too active during class activities. Fat children also face many problems. They are often slow and less able to participate in(参与) physical activity. They may suffer from(遭受)being laughed at(嘲笑)and emotional stress by being excluded from(排斥) playmates.Children‟s resistance(抵抗) to infection(感染) and illness is also definitely influenced by their nutritional status. Children who are well nourished are less likely to(不太可能做某事)become ill; they also recover(恢复)more quickly when they are sick. Poorly nourished children are more sensitive to(对…敏感) infections and illness. Illness also increases the need for some nutrients (营养物质). Thus poor nutrition creates a cycle of illness, poorer nutritional status, and lowered resistance to illness.Malnutrition(营养不良)is a serious problem for many young children but it is not always associated with(把…和联系起来) poverty or a poor environment. Children of middle and upper income families may also be malnourished(营养不良的)because of(由于) unwise food selections. Malnutrition occurs when there is prolonged (拖延的) imbalance(不平衡) of the nutrients that are required and the nutrients that are actually eaten. Malnutrition may be the result of under-nutrition or over-nutrition.It is important that both of these conditions be avoided in young child. An adequate(充足的)intake(摄入) of all required nutrients is most vital during early periods of growth and development. Also, the effects of nutritional deficiency(缺乏)on physical development during early childhood are less likely to be changed by improved dietary(饮食的) intake later.习题解析6. Well-nourished children tend to do all the following but _________.A. be attentive while learningB. be too active in classD. behave very properlychildren may be quiet and withdrawn(沉默寡言的), or too active during class activities.【答案】B7. Which of the following statement is NOT true?A. Children‟s resistance to illness is directly proportional to(与…成正比) their poor nutritional status.B. The well-nourished tend to recover quickly when they are ill.C. The poorly-nourished are most likely to(更有可能做某事) be the victims of any infections disease.D. The …cycle‟ indicates that illness can turn the poor nutritional condition for the worse.【解析】Children‟s resistance(抵抗) to infection(感染) and illness is also definitely influenced by their nutritional status.【答案】A8. Malnutrition may be caused by __________.A. a poor environmentB. unwise food selectionsC. under-nutritionD. all of the above…. but it is not always associated with(把…和联系起来)Children of middle and upper income families may also be malnourished(营养不良 unwise food selections Malnutrition may be the result of under-nutrition or over-nutrition.【答案】D9. It is implied in the passage that ________.A. over-nutrition is even more harmful than under-nutritionD. the nutrients intake can be improved as the child grows up【解析】It is important that both of these conditions be avoided in young child. An adequate(充足的)intake(摄入) of all required nutrients is most vital during early periods of growth and development. Also, the effects of nutritional deficiency(缺乏)on physical development during early childhood are less likely to be changed by improved dietary(饮食的) intake later【答案】C10. What‟s the main idea of the passage?A. The difference between well and poorly nourished children.B. The effects of nutrition on children.C. The cause of malnutrition.D.

It can be inferred from the passage that ________. 【推理题】15. This passage was most probably written in _________. 【推理题】篇章解析In the year 1906 Woodrow Wilson, who was then president of Princeton University said, “Nothing has spread socialistic(社会主义的) feeling in this century more than the automobile(汽车),” and added that it offered “a picture of the arrogance(自大，傲慢)of wealth”. Less than twenty years later, two women of Muncie, Indiana, both of whom were managing on small incomes, spoke their minds to investigators(调查者)gathering facts for that admirable(令人钦佩的，值得赞扬的) study of an American community, Middletown. Said one, who was the mother of nine children. “We‟d rather(宁愿) do without clothes than give up(放弃) the car.” Said the other, “I‟ll go without food before I‟ll see us give up the car.” And elsewhere another housewife, in answer to(响应) a comment on the fact that her family owned a car but no bathtub, uttered(发出)a fitting theme song(主题歌)for the automobile revolution. “Why,” said she, “you can‟t go to town in a bathtub!”This change in the status of the automobile from luxury(奢侈) for the many —a change which, as we shall see, transformed(转变) American communities and daily habits and ideas throughout the half century —did not come about(发生)suddenly. It could not. For it depended upon(依靠)three things. First, a reliable(可靠的), manageable(易操纵的), and not expensive car. Second, good roads. And third, garages and filling stations(加油站) in great number. And all these three requirements had to come slowly, by degrees(逐渐地), each strengthening(加强) the others; a man who had tried to operate(经营) a filling station beside a dusty(落满灰尘的) road in 1906 would have speedily(迅速地)gone bankrupt(破产).习题解析11.

What is not said about the landscape in Iceland?【细节题】17. Icelanders‟ religion lies basically in _________. 【细节题】18. We can conclude from the passage that ________.【推理题】19. The underlined word “crucial” (Para. 4, line 4) means______.【词汇题】20. The best title for this passage would be ________. 【主旨题】篇章解析From the beginning of painting in Iceland, it has been the country‟s landscapes(风景) that has been the main subject(主题) for artists.And it should surprise nobody, as closeness to a magnificent(壮丽的) and imposing(壮观的) native land has been the great fountain(喷泉)which has nourished the country‟s children. Not only painters and artists have fed off(以…为食物来源) this source —all Icelanders have to some extent(在一定程度上) received spiritual(精神的) strength and inspiration(灵感) from the country‟s nature.It is because of this that the landscape, the appearance of the country and the moods of nature mean so such to Icelanders. They are moved by pictures from foreign lands. Many places hold a special place in people‟s hearts.Belief in the land is a common expression of those feelings an d views —that the destiny(命运) of land and nation are interrelated(相关的) and that nothing can change this. It is thus maintained(主张), both seriously andjokingly, that Icelanders‟religion lies in(在于)this “belief in the land.”No surprise that pictorial(图像的) representations(代表) of landscape are crucial to Icelanders.The modern age with its variation(变化) and experimentation(实验) in the arts and other fields has created many new outlooks which fly directly in the face of traditional attitudes. These new perspectives(观点) are often fresh winds which prompt(促进) us to reconsider and reform our viewpoints, even if they don‟t overturn(推翻) the old ones. And of course young, creative artists have other things in mind that simply recycling what others have done before them. Those who pioneer(开辟), who present(提出)original(新颖的，独特的)solutions, seldom achieve their breakthroughs(突破) quickly. Their struggle(奋斗) is always exciting —and often the one which bears the most fruit.习题解析16. What is not said about the landscape in Iceland?A. It has always been the main subject for paintings.B.

A wheelchair user may need help to enter.A. the HouseB. the gardenC. the Visitors’ CentreD. the exhibition hall.BEDGEWOOD --- Every morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: the district’s first coffee sh op run mostly by students with special learning needs.Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.By closing time at 9:20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks. “Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good,”Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.Not that it was easy. Chevalier’s first problem to overcome was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content?Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non-fat milk, fell within nutrition（营养）guidelines.The whole school has joined in to help.Teachers agreed to give up their lounge（休息室）in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.59. What is the text mainly about？A. A best-selling coffee.B. A special educational program.C. Government support for schools.D. A new type of teacher-student relationship.60. The Dixie PIT program was introduced in order to.A. raise money for school affairsB. do some research on nutritionC. develop students’ practical skillsD. supply teachers with drinks61. How did Christy McKinley know Ms. Schatzman’s opinion of the chi tea?A. She met her in the shop.B. She heard her telling others.C. She talked to her on the phone.D. She went to her office to deliver the tea.62. We know from the text that Ginger Gray.A. manages the Dixie PIT program in Kenton CountyB. sees that the drinks meet health standardsC. teaches at Dixie Heights High SchoolD. owns the school’s coffee shopCAlong the river banks of the Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that swims before it can fly, flies like a fat chicken, eats green leaves, has the stomach of a cow and has claws（爪）on its wings when young. They build their homes about 4.6m above the river, an important feature（特征）for the safety of the young. It is called the hoatzin.In appearance, the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on theback and cream and red on the underside. The head is small, with a large set of feathers on the top, bright red eyes, and blue skin. Its nearest relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its most striking feature, though, is only found in the young.Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip. Using these four claws, together with the beak（喙）, they can climb about in the bushes, looking very much like primitive birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to fly, they lose their claws.During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of 20 to 30 birds, but in April, when the rainy season begins, they collect together in smaller living units of two to seven birds for producing purposes.63. What is the text mainly about?A. Hoatzins in dry and rainy seasons.B. The relatives and enemies of hoatzins.C. Primitive birds and hoatzins of the Amazon.D. The appearance and living habits of hoatzins.64. Young hoatzins are different from their parents in that.A. they look like young cuckoosB. they have claws on the wingsC. they eat a lot like a cowD. they live on river banks65. What can we infer about primitive birds from the text?A. They had claws to help them climb.B. They could fly long distances.C. They had four wings like hoatzins.D. They had a head with long feathers on the top.66. Why do hoatzins collect together in smaller groups when the rainy season comes?A. To find more food.B. To protect themselves better.C. To keep themselves warm.D. To produce their young.DScience can’t explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that thecompany of pets can help lower blood pressure（血压）and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.Any owner will tall you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress（紧张）levels and blood pressure in people --- half of them pet owners --- while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic （算术）or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed（放松）around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge.A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about I1 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall --- mostly with their dogs --- and found it worth doing.67. What does the text mainly discuss？A. What pets bring to their owners.B. How pets help people calm down.C. People’s opinions of keeping pets.D. Pet’s value in medical resea rch.68. We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if.A. he has a pet companionB. he has less stress of workC. he often does mental arithmeticD. he is taken care of by his family69. According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks?A. They have lower blood pressure.B. They become more patient.C. They are less nervous.D. They are in higher spirits.70. The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that.A. people with dogs did more exerciseB. dogs lost the same weight as people didC. dogs liked exercise much more than people didD. people without dogs found the program unhelpful.EThere were smiling children all the way. Charily they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight, Immediately I came alive; I decided to wave hack.From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. Whenmy uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug （拥抱）. I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.I looked forward to the return journey.71.

It can set up a warm conversation between two people far apart(远离地>；it can keep a 22 with very little effort.I will give 23 . A few years ago my older brother and I were not getting 24 We had been close as 25 but had grown apart.

They have a choice . And that is to write.”<因为我们生活在通讯工具便捷地时代，人们难免会忘掉我们不必总得用电话或电子邮件联系，我们还有另一种选择，那就是写信.）这样地记叙思路恰好是全国卷高考英语命题地潜在思想，达到了教育性启迪性地目地.该试题地难度和前几年相比，难度相当；用词选项方面，都间接考查了构词法：reread, deepem等，类似于去年地acceptance，难度上略微有所增加.详细解读21. D解读：前文有enjoy, read，不可能是received 或 returned, 只能是“重读”.Rewritten表示“重写”22. C 表示保持两人地友谊23. A 根据后文举例说明，故用give an example24. C get through通过，完成； get together 聚会，聚焦；get along 相处； get away走开，离开25. B Children 与后面地grow apart呼应26. C 根据后文地our conversation was filled with arguments and quarrels，推理出“不愉快”，选择pleasant27. A 根据情感变化是“加深误解”，故选用deepen，该题主要考构词法28. D 搬家，迁居，move to some place29.

After getting aPhD in English in Canada,she took aTest Frommer’s travel guides,passed it, and got the job.After working at Frommer’s,Jarolim workedfor a while at Rough Guides in London, then Fodor’s,where she fell so in love with a description of the Southwest of the U.S.that she moved there.Now as a travel writer,she spends one-third of her year on the road. The rest of the time is spent completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in Tucson,Arigona.As adventurous as the job sounds,the hard part is fact-checking all the information.Sure,it’s great to write about a tourist attraction,but you’d better get the local(当地地>museum hours correct or you could really ruin someone’s vacation.46.Which country does Jarolim live in now?A．Mexico B．The U.S. C．The U.K. D．Canada47.What is most difficrlt for Jarolim?A．Working in different places to collect informationB．Checking all the facts to be written in the guidesC．Finishing her work as soon as possibleD．Passing a test to write travel guides48.What do we know about Jarllim from the text?A．She is successful in her jobB．She finds her life full of stressesC．She spends half of her time travelingD．She is especially interested in museums49.What would be the best title for the text?A．Adventures in Travel WritingB．Working as a Food CriticC．Travel Guides on the MarketD．Vacationing for a LivingB篇阅读理解地文字风格略显诙谐，Hi, stop! 但有实际地描述了一个很普遍地谋生问题：谋生在Jarolim身上既是度假休闲，又是写作和评论地源泉.这是一篇展示生活地文章.从文字设计上看，影响考生理解完整意思地因素可能是专有名词和对话地插入，但是如果避开障碍，处理好这些内容，整篇文章文字比较通顺流畅.难度并不大.但是在47、48题地理解上，部分考生会出现问题.46. 答案：B考点：考查细节解读：文章第三段提示“then Fodor’s, where she fell so in love with a description of the Southwest of the U.S. that she moved there.”47. 答案：B考点：理解文中具体信息解读：文章最后一段第一句“As adventurous as the job sounds,the hard part is fact-checking all the information.”提示48. 答案：A考点：作出简单判断和推理解读：根据全文地介绍，说明这是一种成功地生活方式49. 答案：D考点：考主旨大意解读：提示在文章第一段结尾句“Hey, stop!

And the rapid growth of a pleasure-seeking middle class has formed the basis for thisNew craze(热潮>.Since Beijing’s first ski resort was opened ten years ago,the sport has enjoyed an astonishing increase.There are now more than a dozen resorts.Clothes markets in the city have added bright colored ski suits to their winter collections. Mr.Wei,amanager of a newly-opened ski resort in Beijing,sees the growth of an industry that could soon lead Chinese to head for the ski resorts of Europe.In recent years ski resorts offering natural snow have opened in China.But many are in faraway areas of the country and can’t really match the equipment and services of some ski resorts in Europe.Beijing’s sking craze is partly a result of the recent increase in private(私有地>cars.This has led to the growth of a leisure industry in the capital’s suburbs(郊区>.which until the late-1990s were unreachable to ordinary people.According toMr.Wei,About 40％ of the visitors to his resort some in their own cars.The rest are bused in by schools,businesses or government offices.The problem is making money.Starting ski resorturequires quite a lot of money:hiring land from the local government,preparing the hills,buying snow machines,making sure there are enoughwater and electricity to run them,and buying ski equipment for hiring out to customers.The ski resort where Mr.Wei works cost nearly $4m to set up.And,as so often in China when someone comes up with a good idea,many others rush in and price wars break out.Beijing now offers some ofthe cheapest ski training classes in the world,though withmost people rather new to the sport,expecting a few more doing the same job.50.What does this text mainly talk about?A．Convenience for skiers brought about by private carsB．Skiing as a new way of enjoying one’s spare timeC．Things to be considered when starting a ski resortD．A sudden increase of ski training classes in Beijing51.Why are some Chinese likely to go skiing in Burope?A．To visit more ski areasB．To ski on natrual snowC．For a large collection of ski suitsD．For better services and equipment52.The underlined words”leisure industry”in Paragraph 3 refer toA．transport to ski resortsB．production of familycarsC．business of providing spare time enjoymentsD．part-time work for people living in the suburbs53.What is the main problem in running a ski resort?A．Difficulty in hiring landB．Lack of business experienceC．……ski resorts.D．Shortage of water and electricityC篇阅读理解属于一篇社会新闻地报道.报道北京首都地庆祝新年地活动-----滑雪.介绍了滑雪胜地地一些情况.这篇文章看似新闻报道，但是与百姓生活息息相关，文字简单，偶尔有构词法，语篇略长.但是不妨碍绝大多数考生对整篇文章地完全清楚地理解.尤其是试题选项均可以在原文中找到直接句子即该题答案.52、53小题，容易理解出错.50. 答案：B考点：考查主旨大意解读：注意选项地四个提示性地中心词 A. Convenience B.Skiing C.Things to be considered D.

He made little pieces of sculpture—men, women and castle, quaint earthen things dotted over with sea-shells. He painted. Thus he wasted his time on all that was useless, needless. People laughed at him. At times he vowed to shake off his whims, but they lingered in his mind.(3) Some boys seldom ply their books and yet pass their tests. A similar thing happened to this man. He spent his earth life in useless work and yet after his death the gates of Heaven opened wide for him.(4) But mistakes are unavoidable even in Heaven. So it came to pass that the aerial messenger who took charge of the man made a mistake and found him a place in Workers’ Paradise.(5) In this Paradise you find everything except leisure.(6) Here men say: “God! We haven’t a moment to spare.” Women whisper: “Let’s move on, time’s a-flying.” All exclaim: “Time is precious.” “We have our hands full, we make use of every single minute,” they sigh complainingly, and yet those words make them happy and exalted.(7) But this newcomer, who had passed all his life on Earth without doing a scrap of useful work, did not fit in with the scheme of things in Workers’ Paradise. He lounged in the streets absently and jostled the hurrying men. He lay down in green meadows, or close to the fast flowing streams, and was taken to task by busy farmers. He was always in the way of others. (8) A hustling girl went every day to a silent torrent (silent, since in the Workers’ Paradise even a torrent would not waste its energy singing) to fill her pitcher.(9) The girl’s movement on the road was like the rapid movement of a skilled hand on the strings of a guitar. Her hair was carelessly done; inquisitive wisps stooped often over her forehead to peer at the dark wonder of her eye.(10) The idler was standing by the stream. As a princess sees a lonely beggar and is filled with pity, so the busy girl of Heaven saw this one and was filled with pity.(11 ) “A—ha !” she cried with concern. “Y ou have no work in hand, have you?”(12) The man sighed, “Work! I have not a moment to spare for work.”(13) The girl did not understand his words, and said: “I shall spare some work for you to do, if you like.”(14) The man replied: “Girl of the silent torrent, all this time I have been waiting to take some work from your hands.”(15) “What kind of work would you like?”(16) “Will you give me one of your pitchers, one that you can spare?”(17) She asked: “A pitcher? Y ou want to draw water from the torrent?”(18) “No, I shall draw pictures on your pitcher.”(19) The girl was annoyed.(20) “Pictures, indeed! I have no time to waste on such as you. I am going.” And she walked away.(21) But how could a busy person get the better of one who had nothing to do? Every day they met, and every day he said to her: “Girl of the silent torrent, give me one of your clay pitchers. I shall draw pictures on it.”(22) She yielded at last. She gave him one of her pitchers. The man started painting. He drew line after line; he put color after color.(23) When he had completed his work, the girl held up the pitcher and stared at its sides, her eyes puzzled. Brows drawn, she asked: “What do they mean, all those lines and colors? What is their purpose?”(24) The man laughed.(25) “Nothing. A picture may have no meaning and may serve no purpose.”(26) The girl went away with her pitcher. At home, away from prying eyes, she held it in the light, turned it round and round and scanned the painting from all angles. At night she moved out of bed, lighted a lamp and scanned it again in silence. For the first time in her life she had seen something that had no meaning and no purpose at all.(27) When she set out for the torrent the next day, her hurrying feet were a little less hurried than before. For a new sense seemed to have wakened in her, a sense that seemed to have no meaning and no purpose at all.(28) She saw the painter standing by the torrent and asked in confusion: “What do you want of me?”(29) “Only some more work from your hands.”(30) “What kind of work would you like?”(31) “Let me make a colored ribbon for your hair,” he answered.(32) “And what for?”(33) “Nothing.”(34) Ribbons were made, bright with colors. The busy girl of Workers’ Paradise had now to spend a lot of time every day tying the colored ribbon around her hair. The minutes slipped by, unutilized. Much work was left unfinished.(35) In Workers’ Paradise work had of late begun to suffer. Many persons who had been active before were now idle, wasting their precious time on useless things such as painting and sculpture. The elders became anxious. A meeting was called. All agreed that such a state of affairs had so far been unknown in the history of Workers’ Paradise.(36) The aerial messenger hurried in, bowing before the elders and made a confession.(37) “I brought a wrong man into this Paradise,” he said. “It is all due to him.”(38) The man was summoned. As he came the elders saw his fantastic dress, his quaint brushes, his paints, and they knew at once that he was not the right sort for Workers’ Paradise.(39) Stiffly the Preside nt said: “This is no place for the like of you.
