AThe person who set the course of my life was a school teacher named Marjorie Hurd. When I was stepped off a ship in New York Harbor in 1949, I was a nine-year-old war refugee, who had lost his mother and was coming to live with the father he did not know. My mother, Eleni Gatzoyiannis, had been imprisoned and shot for sending my sisters and me to freedom.I was thirteen years old when I entered Chandler Junior High. Shortly after I arrived, I was told to select a hobby to pursue during “club hours.” The idea of hobbies and clubs made no sense to my immigrant ears, but I decided to follow the prettiest girl in my class. She led me into the presence of Miss Hurd, the school newspaper adviser and English teacher.A tough woman with salt-and-pepper hair and determined eyes, Miss Hurd had no patience with lazy bones. She drilled us in grammar, assigned stories for us to read and discuss, and eventually taught us how to put out a newspaper. Her introduction to the literary wealth of Greece gave me a new perspective on my war-torn homeland, making me proud of my origins. Her efforts inspired me to understand the logic and structure of the English language. Owing to her inspiration, during my next twenty-five years, I became a journalist by profession.Miss Hurd retired at the age of 62. By then, she had taught for a total of 41 years. Even after her retirement, she continually made a project of unwilling students in whom she spied a spark of potential. The students were mainly from the most troubled homes, yet she alternately bullied and charmed them with her own special brand of tough love, until the spark caught fire.Miss Hurd was the one who directed my grief and pain into writing. But for Miss Hurd, I wouldn’t have become a reporter. She was the one that sent me into journalism and indirectly caused all the good things that came after.1. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph Two most probably mean?A. Hobbies and clubs did not interest the author.B. The author turned a deaf ear to joining clubs.C. The author had no idea what hobbies and clubs were all about.D. Hobbies and clubs were inaccessible to immigrants like the author.2. Which of the following caused the author to think of his homeland differently?A. Stepping on the American soil for the first time.B. Her mother’s miserable death.C. Following the prettiest girl in his class.D. Being exposed to Greek literary works.3. It can be inferred from Paragraph Four that ___________.A. Miss Hurd’s contribution was recognized across the nation.B. Students from troubled homes preferred Miss Hurd’s teaching style.C. Miss Hurd employed a unique way to handle these students.D. The students Miss Hurd taught were all finally fired.4. The passage is mainly concerned with ___________.A. how the author became a journalist.B. the importance of inspiration in one’s life.C. factors contributing to a successful career.D. the teacher who shaped the author’s life.BSuppose you work in a big firm and find English very important for your job because you often deal with foreign businessmen. Now you are looking for a place where you can improve your English, especially your spoken English.Here are some advertisements about English language training from newspapers.

The bullet narrowly missed 20-year-old Birmingham resident Jatari Walker who told the Daily News she is scarred by the entire experience.“I can’t sleep,” she said Saturday afternoon. “And since it happened I’ve had no appetite.”Walker ordered a combination platter（大浅盘）and egg roll from the Good Friend Chinese and Seafood Restaurant on Dennison Ave. Thursday evening. After paying her $7 bill she went back to her car and discovered a fly inside. “I thought I need to take this back,” she said.The customer went back and asked for a repayment and said the owner Chun Hin Ching, 52, was unhappy with her because she announced her discovery in front of other customers. After an argument he repaid the money and Walker —who is now a former frequent customer of the business — turned and walked to the exit.That’s when Ching drew a handgun and fired a single shot over her head.“He just shot the gun at me and I ran,” she said, adding she could feel the bullet whiz past her head.Birmingham Police Department spokesman Lt. Sean Edwards told the News the owner was charged with attempted murder and was transported to Jefferson County Jail on $100,000 bail（保释金）.Police believe Ching intended to hit Walker with the bullet and missed, Edwards said. The bullet hit the top of the door frame of the take-out business.Ching did not tell police why he fired at Walker, Edwards said.Edwards said he did not recall any previous problems at the business. He said Ching did not say why he had a weapon but added it was not uncommon for stores in that neighborhood.No one was injured from the gunshot, Edwards said.Calls placed to the restaurant Saturday afternoon were not answered.9. What happened on Thursday night in Good Friend Chinese and Seafood Restaurant?A. A fire broke out but luckily no one was injured.B. The restaurant owner refused to repay the money.C. A young woman narrowly escaped being killed by a bullet.D. The egg rolls caused sickness among some customers.10. Why did Walker go back to the restaurant after buying the food?A.

Because she found the owner charged her too much.11. The restaurant owner fired on Walker when ______.A. she was arguing with himB. she was about to leaveC. she asked for a repaymentD. she announced her discovery12. We can learn from the passage that ______.A. this is the first time for Walker to buy food from Good Friend RestaurantB. the owner was unhappy with the complaint and refused to repay the moneyC. if someone had been hit, Ching’d have been charged with attempted murderD. it is common for a restaurant owner in that neighborhood to have a weaponDOn “Super Bowl Sunday”,millions of Americans are glued to their TVs. They are eating pizza, chicken wings and chips and cheering every move. The y’re watching the Super Bowl.Why are Americans so crazy about American football? Well, it is more exciting than other sports. One team can lose possession of the ball in a minute, which may allow their opponents to make a touchdown(触地得分). Then that team may win the game unexpectedly.The Super Bowl also entertains its audience with a great halftime show. The football field is turned into a stage. Then an impressive performance of dancing and singing with special effects occurs.Since the Super Bowl is the most-watched TV program in America, commercial airtime is also very expensive. Big money is also spent on commercials. They draw the viewers’ attention and advertise their image or products during the commercial break.After football season, the “March Mad ness” begins. The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) competitions begin with 68 men’s college basketball teams. They play until the field is reduced to the “Final Four”.The winning team becomes the national champion. The NBA (National Basketball Association) All-Star game is also held in February. The best players from all the teams play in this game.Baseball is no doubt American’s national sport. From grandpas to young kids, whole families go to ball games together. They wear their favorite team’s caps or even carry their mascot(吉祥物). Our family went to watch Wang Chien-Ming play in D.C. once. We ate hot dogs, waved flags and sang during the 7th inning(棒球的一局) stretch.If you are not a sports fan yet, come and pick a sport or a team. Go to a ball game with your family, and cheer your team on. Sports are definitely a part of American culture one should not miss.13. According to the passage, the Super Bowl is _____.A. an expensive American sportB. a well-received American football gameC. an impressive TV performanceD. a most-watched TV series14.

ABranches hit my face, sending blood down my cheeks. Every one of my pores (毛孔) was filled with sweat, but I couldn’t stop. They were clos e behind. I could not, I would not go back. They only saw my black skin and did not know of the human soul that lived under by flesh.The sound of the dogs came closer. I hid myself in the shadows beneath the trees above me, thankful for the first time for my black skin. My bare feet bled. The moonlight threatened to give me away. Its brightness seemed to make fun of me as I ran. Even the moon was white. The whole world seemed to be made for people with a white surface. Suddenly I fell down to the forest floor. My legs begged me not to make them run. I ignored them and desperately tried to escape and run away from these evil people, the moon, and my own dark skin.It was a failed attempt. I had hardly ran ten steps when the dogs’ teeth were in my face. Te ars burned my face, tears of anger, hate, and fear. “Please!” I begged. “Please let me go!” My breath was short, and my whole body was filled with blood. I stopped for breath. “Actually we’re all the same! That’s what really matters! Please let me go.”“Let you go?” a man laughed. “How could it be? You were born to serve us.” They laughed as they marched along, pulling me by a long rope like a dog. I was exhausted after running for days and I could feel that blood was flowing down my body. At last, I fell down in the grass, covered with blood. My soul moved away from my body and I was free at last.1. According to the text, the author was probably _____.A. a slaveB. a hunterC. a thiefD. a prisoner2. To ask the men to let him go, what reason did the author give?A. He was bleeding.B. He was out of breath.C. He was also a human.D. He was afraid of dogs.3. It can be inferred from the text that _____.A. a man treated the author’s woundsB. the dogs bit one of the author’s legsC. a man set the author free out of mercyD. the author lost consciousness in the end4. What’s the best title for the text?A. A failed attempt to get freedomB. A dangerous hunting experienceC. A story of an adventure in woodsD. A struggle for survival and powerBIt’s time to study like a rock star! Many rock stars are smart enough to know that it’s cool to go to a top-rated school. Let’s check out these musicians who went to Ivy League colleges.Rivers CuomoThe lead singer and guitarist of the band, Weezer, is an Ivy League rocker, graduating from Harvard with outstanding performance. Rivers Cuomo earned his bachelor’s degree in English after 10 year on-off work at this famous university.John LegendThe Grammy Award winning singer and songwriter had scholarship offers from Harvard, Georgetown and Morehouse before attending the University of Pennsylvania, where he majored in English with an emphasis on African American literature. John Legend famously contributed to Kanye West’s album, “The College Drop out (辍学者)”. He always supports education reform and has even taken part in a public performance for dropout prevention for free.Lisa LoebIt was just a few years after she graduated from Brown University with a degree in comparative literature that singer Lisa Loeb had a hit single (畅销的单曲唱片) with her song “Stay”. The smart rocker made history with “Stay” as the only artist to ever have a number one single before being signed to a recording contract.Greg GraffinThe lead singer of the L.A. punk band, Bad Religion, earned his Ph.D. from Cornell University. He later worked at the University of California at Los Angeles as a life science professor. Greg Graffin has said, “[Evolution (进化) is] a controversial topic that I research both on an academic (学术的) leve l and in my music.”50. We can learn from the text that John Legend _____.A. won a Grammy Award at collegeB. majored in comparative literatureC. became famous for The College DropoutD. once performed to help school dropouts6. Which of the following musicians taught at a university?A. Rivers Cuomo.B. John Legend.C. Lisa Loeb.D. Greg Graffin.7. Which university did the singer of “Stay” graduate from?A. Harvard University.B. The University of Pennsylvania.C. Brown University.D. Cornell University.8. The text mainly aims to _____.A. advise readers to pursue their studiesB. advise readers to learn to enjoy rock musicC. show the importance of entering a top-rated schoolD. show the relationship between education and musicCHe has climbed a high mountain, raced the 24-hour motorcycle track in France and even, walked from Tokyo to Kyoto, a distance of 500 km. Now Evolta, Panasonic’s 7-inch Humanoid Robot is getting ready for his biggest challenge — the Ironman Triathlon (铁人三项) Championship in Hawaii.To compete in this exhausting contest, the green & white robot which is small enough to fit on a human palm, will have to swim 2.4 miles in the rough ocean, bike 112 miles across the hot Hawaiian desert and, run a full marathon distance of 26.2 miles in the painfully hot weather.Given that he is so tiny and powered by rechargeable batteries (充电电池) of Panasonic, he will be allowed some freedom in the way he competes. For one, he will be starting the race on October 23rd, 2011, three weeks following the real event and, while human competitors have at most 17 hours to complete the triathlon, Evolta will be given 7 days, during which his only “breaks” will be to recharge his batteries.The biggest difference however, will be that unlike a single human body doing all three races, there will be three different “Evolta” robot bodies competing — each built for the specific race. Evolta the swimmer will be equipped with special arms to swim forward. Evolta the biker, will be on a little two-wheeler with training wheels, while Evolta the runner, will be fixed on what looks like a wheel.In spite of all these advantages, the robot’s creator Tomotaka Takahashi believes that the race will be a huge challenge — not only will Evolta have to battle the wind and sun, but also, small road obstacles (障碍) that humans just step over. The water will be even worse thanks to the strong waves, tides and ocean winds. But if he does complete it, Evolta will add another feather in his cap and just prove the already well-known fact that Panasonic’s rechargeable Evolta batteries are indeed the “world’s longest-lasting batteries”!9. When competing in the triathlon, Evolta _____.A. has to finish the competition in 17 hoursB. will be allowed to have a break from time to timeC. will start three weeks earlier than other competitorsD. will have three specially-built bodies for the competition10. By saying “Evolta will add another feather in his cap”, the author means _____.A. Evolta will celebrate the victory with a feather capB. Evolta will become very famous and attractiveC. Evolta will be awarded with another feather capD. Evolta will have another thing to be proud of11. From the text, we can infer that Evolta will take part in the competition to _____.A. challenge human runnersB. prove the potential of robotsC. market Panasonic’s batteriesD. show today’s advanced technology12. The text is mainly about a robot _____.A. using the energy-efficient batteriesB. accomplishing a challenging triathlonC. winning human athletes for the first timeD. competing in the Ironman Triathlon ChampionshipDMen take more risks. In studies, men as a whole display less cautious behavior than women, such as driving at higher speeds and closer to other cars, not wearing seat belts, and driving while drunk more often. They even make riskier turns and take less time when parking (although they do a more accurate job, says Tom Vanderbilt, author of Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do (And What It Says About Us).BUT ... how someone drives doesn’t necessarily equal how well he drives. Men do seem to be better at certain driving tasks than women. However, this slight edge (优势) in ability doesn’t translate into better driving records. The kinds of accidents men get into are generally the result of their riskier behavior. According to one study, men are more than three times as likely to be ticketed for “aggressive driving” than women, and more than 25 percent as likely to be at fault in an accident.Perception (观念) is a powerful thing. In spite of the research, it is still difficult to determine whether men are truly innately (天生地) better drivers than women or if they’re simply more confident in their driving because they’re considered to be better, and thus show better skills. Similarly, the perception that women are weaker drivers may negatively affect their performance behind the wheel.Women are catching up ... which isn’t necessarily good news. Men may be responsible for more accidents than women, but the gap is getting smaller. Today, more women drive (and drive more) than ever before, which has the unfortunate consequence of an increase in speeding, aggressive driving, and so on.13. The text is most probably taken from _____.A. a book reviewB. a library guideC. a driving guidebookD. a newspaper report14. The author develops the first paragraph mainly by _____.A. making comparisonsB. giving examplesC. analyzing reasons and resultsD. following the order of importance15. What can we learn from the text?A. Women should be responsible for most accidents.B. Men cause accidents mainly because they are careless.C. Tom Vanderbilt believes that women can park more accurately than men.D. The author doubts whether men are born to be better drivers than women.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在题卡上将该项涂黑。

The world of entertainmentis mourning the death of the last classic movie star.Taylor died of congestive heart failure in Los Angeles at the age of 79.Taylor's more than 50 movies included unforgettable portraits of innocence and of decadence(堕落), from the children's classic "National Velvet"《玉女神驹》to Oscar-winning transgressions in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" 《谁怕弗吉尼亚·澳尔夫》and "Butterfield 8"《巴塔费尔德第八》.Fans gathered on Hollywood's Walk of Fame to pay tribute（讼词）to the actress. They placed tributes on her star and recalled about highlights of her career.Sandra, Hollywood, California, said, "Well, she just led an amazing life, and she went out with style."Phil Schuman, Repor ter of KTTV in Los Angeles, said, "Well, I mean, her whole life story: child star, remarkably beautiful, all the marriages, almost dying, then all of her great work with AIDS research, Michael Jackson's best friend. It's just a one-of-a-kind story, I think."Taylor was not only the most blessed actress, but also the most loyal of friends and defender of homosexuals in Hollywood. She won a special Oscar, the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award for her efforts to support AIDS research."Is this something that we can bear? No. The AIDS crisis is not over." Taylor once said.Taylor's private life is also a legend. She was a star at age 12, a bride and a divorcee at 16, a superstar at 19 and a widow at 26. She has married 8 times.

Dogs were then delivered to the headquarter of China Small Animal Protection Association (CS APA), being taken care of and waiting for adoption.After the “dog saving mission” was reported, Chinese net users debate over whether saving dogs worth s o much efforts and money while there are still many poor and needy people in China lacking assistance.Some net users argue the dog saving mission is placing overt attention to animals while lots of needy people are still left unattended.A microblogger “Xiaowulaitajie” said on China’s twitter-like website, , “Dogs are saved, adopted and they attracted media spotlight. We'd better spend such money and take such efforts in helping the needy people.”Another microblogger, Liluping, said "We poured such huge sum of money into saving dogs. I would rather the money be spent on disaster relief."Some applaud volunteers’ actions and show eagerness of offering their helping hands to those saved dogs.Still many disapprove those "saving dogs" critics, but they argue that such act nonetheless embodies social progress.A microblogger named "broken bridge" said, saving dogs does not run counter to taking care of people. Such enthusiasm in public affairs will help raise social awareness in helping the needy.I think people and animals are created equal .Attention should be paid to people as well as animals.44.

After divorce, her parents shed the deepest protection and care to her by helping her attend to the child and offering financialaids. Her parents’ love made her pull herself together and forget the man who had hurt herbefore.Nonetheless, her father, an honest and upright old man, after hearing his ex-son-in-law got promoted in his company, felt terrifically irritated （激怒）and went to his company to question his boss why a philandering（沾花惹草的）man with corrupt conducts could get promoted. The whole office fell into a mess immediately and many staff just watched on the sidelines. Some people even whisper ed lightly, “It is a new era now and the relationship between men and women is very open. No one would care about that any more!”The old man stood silently in the office with his hands shivering and eyes tearing.That night, my girlfriend cried heavily in front of me. I asked her whether it was her father’s stupid deeds that made her feel shamed. But she said that she felt guilty for her dad and that though the rest of the whole world betrayed her, her old father would still back her up and help her get the justice she deserved, just as when she was young and the neighboring boy grabbed her ball, her father would get it back for her. However, this changed world was no longer the stage for her old father and his deeds became funnily obsolete（老式的）. No one managed to see the real and ever-lasting love to his daughter behind his seemingly rude behaviors.Now we have grown up, so much so that we could support our family and have our own children. But in our parents’ heart, they are still worried about us. They even would not like us to suffer a bit and try all means to protect us without caring about whether what they do is awkward and stupid or not.Who in the world would love us so deeply and relentlessly without asking for any repay? Only our parents!48. The friend’s parents of the author helped _______ after her divorce.A. look after her childB. find another husband for herC. scold her ex-husbandD. make money for her 49．Why did the friend’s father go to his ex-son-in-law’s compan y?A. Because he wanted to ask his ex-son-in-law to remarry his daughter.B. Because he was angry at his ex-son-in-law conducts.C. Because he wanted the boss not to promote his ex-son-in-law.D. Because his ex-son-in-law hurt his daughter.50.

What does the author want to tell us in the passage?A. No love can compare with parents’ love.B. An unforgettable experience in life.C. Father’s times have been passed.D. The life of the friend after her divorce.EOver the years I’ve b een teaching kids about a simple but powerful spirit—the ant philosophy(哲学)．I think we should study ants．Ants have an amazing four-part philosophy, and here is the first part：they never quit．That’s a good philosophy. If they’re headed somewhere and you try to stop them，they’ll look for another way．They’ll climb over, and they’ll climb around．They keep looking for another way．What a neat philosophy to never quit looking for a way to get where they’re supposed to go．Second，ants think winter all summer. Th at’s an important perspective（态度，观点）．You can’t be so naive （无知的）as to think summer will last forever．So ants are gathering their winter food in summer．An ancient story says, “Don’t build your house on the sand in summer．”There is some reason in what it say s．It is important to think ahead．In summer, you’ve to think about the storm．You’ve got to think about rocks you enjoy the sand and sun．The third part of the ant philosophy is that ants think summer all winter．That is so important．During the winter, ants remind themselves，“This won’t last long；we’ll soon be out of here．”And on the first warm day，the ants are out．If it turns cold again，they’ll go back，but then they come out again if it is warm．They can’t wait to get out．And here is the last part of the ant philosophy. How much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter? All that he possibly can．What an incredible(难以置信的)philosophy, the “all-that-you-possibly-can” philosophy．What a great philosophy to have the ant philosophy! Never give up，look ahead，stay active and do all you can．52．If ants have trouble reaching somewhere, they will_________．A．give up their effort at last B．1ook for others’ helpC. wait for a chance to come D．get there in another way53．In Paragraph 3，people are advised __________．A．to build their houses in winter B．to gather some food in winterC．to build the house on the sand in summer D．to think about the storm in summer54．The third part of the ant philosophy is ___________．A．more important than the other three B．to believe in yourself and think about no difficultyC．to be active and make use of every opportunity D．that we should know winter is longer than summer 55．Which of the following shows the “all-that-you-possibly can” philosophy?A．We should try our best to do what we can．B．One should think of what will happen in the future．C．One should get more pay for what he has done．D．We should spend more time doing our work．四、书面表达（共1题）最近因为日本的福岛核电站爆炸，中国有20多个省份都发现了核辐射，对此人们很是惊慌。

A（2015•山东省青岛市高三统一质量检测）Every Wednesday, I go to Cantata Adult Life Services, a local retirement community in Brookfield, Illinois, US, with my classmates to do community service.After my very first visit to Cantata, my life changed forever. That may sound a bit dramatic, but volunteering with the elderly has changed my views on life.Our visits last about an hour, and we bring 25-30 students every time. We play board games and cards with the residents while we’re there.You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about ―life back then‖, but nothing compares to talking to the people who were actually there. Just hearing their stories has touched me in a way I never thought possible.Whether it was talking to 98-year-old ―Hurricane Hilda‖ about her glory days as a roller skateror chatting with Lou about the times she danced with a famous actor, I was completely attracted by every single memory the residents wanted to share with me.Even the residents who don’t have amazing memories make the experience satisfying . I remember visiting Mrs Robinson. She couldn’t recall much about her past, but she told me she’d never forget how kind I w as just to listen to her ―rambling (漫谈)‖. It made me realize that it’s the little things that make life worth living. That’s something I won’t forget anytime soon.If there’s one thing I’ve realized in my three years of visiting Cantata, it’s that pres ence – just being there – means more than anything to many of the residents. And despite how busy our lives are, there’s always time to make someone’s day.For me, it feels great to be a source of happiness, a smile on a bad day or a listening ear for old memories. And at the end of the day, that’s all that matters.It’s easy to feel like you don’t have anything in common with the elderly – especially when you’re a teenager. But that’s not true at all.I hate to be overly clichéd (陈词滥调的) here, but age really is just a number. As young adults, it’s important for us to realize this sooner rather than later. We can learn a lot from the elderly, and they can often benefit from teenagers too.21. What do the volunteers do according to the passage?A. They share everything with the residents.B. They play board games and cards with the residents.C. They watch the residents play games.D. They buy gifts for the residents.22. According to the writer, what is the most important thing that volunteers can do for the elderly?A. Playing with them.B. Benefiting from them.C. Helping them.D. Being there with them.23. What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage ?A. We don’t have anything in common with the e lderly.B. Age is just a number.C. It is important to help the elderly.D. Young adults and the elderly can benefit from each other.B（2015•云南省昆明市高三上学期摸底调研）Hey, mom, I want you to stop dropping me off at the airport for some trip that I am about to take and start becoming my seatmate. I want to travel with you-just you.I want to explore a new place alongside a woman who raised me, who put up with my teenager anxiety and my rebellious (叛逆的) college years. I want to see my favorite cities with the lady who taught me basic life lessons, such as looking both ways before crossing the street, how to use a glue gun, and that the most important thing in the world is to help others.I always appreciated the vacations you planned for our family. I also remember how you watched me as I read The Great Gatsby on the balcony at midday. I wonder if you felt proud of me. These days, I am sick of traveling to places with wishy-washy(无主见的) friends.I want to travel with a strong woman who can see how capable I am of learning to speak French or hiking on a glacier(冰川) or eating something as unpleasant-smelling fruit.Now I want you too see how much I grow up while abroad-I’m a different person, Mom. And I know you’d be different too. I know that someo ne has shared a similar burst of emotion while diving into Australia’s Great Barrier Reef for the first time.So what do you say, Mom? Will you throw responsibility to the wind? I want to travel with you. Let’s just go-we can go anywhere in the world, just you and I. You can pick the place, and I will do the rest.Love,Katka24. Which life lesson does Katka think the most valuable?A. Exploring a new place alongside her mother.B. Visiting favorite cities with her mother.C. Looking both ways when crossing the street.D. Offering help to others when it’s possible.25. What do the underline words in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Keep you promise.B. Take care of me.C. Change your daily routine.D. Have a break from work26. How does Katka feel when she writes this letter?A.Eager.B. Content.C. Doubtful.D. Upset.27.What’s the daughter’s purpose of writing this le tter?A.

考查冠词。
福岛核电站的事故应用定冠词the；而电话谈话没有指明是哪一次，因此用不定冠词表泛指。
句意为：日本表示，日本首相在一次电话谈话中承诺以“最大的透明度”向全世界通报福岛核电站的事故情况。
2．It is thought that Henan Shuanghui Industry Group Co., Ltd. ____take responsibility for its consumers.A. canB. mayC. mustD. need【解析】选C。

3. The civil war in Libya that ______on March 12 _______ for a week until now.A broke out; has lastedB breaking out ; was lastedC was broken out; has lastedD broke out; lasting【解析】选A。
考查动词的时态和语态，本句是一个主从复合句，它的时间状语是3月12日，因此定语从句的谓语用一般过去时，且break out为不及物动词短语无被动语态，因此排除B,C两项，until now 与现在完成时连用，排除D项只有A项符合题意，故选A。
4. It was not until the subprime loan crisis(次贷危机) had caused great damage to the American financial system ____ Americans realized the severity（严重性）of the situation.A. whichB. thatC. whatD. when【解析】选B。
考查强调句型。
not until the subprime loan crisis(次贷危机) had caused great damage to the American financial system是被强调部分，因此后面用that引导主句。
句意为：是直到次贷危机给美国的金融系统造成了巨大危害时美国人才意识到局势的严重性。

根据题意，故选D。
6．A serious forest fire broke out in Shandong, _______ the authority had to take immediate steps to protect the forest in Tai’an.A. whyB. whichC. asD. for which【解析】选D。
考查定语从句。
根据句意可知前句是后句的原因，而此处why不能引导定语从句，需用for which；which引导定语从句指代前面整句内容，并在从句中作主语或宾语，但是后面的句子主谓宾都有，所以不用关系代词which或as。
故选D。
7．Nowadays children have to take arts, music and sports classes in their free time ____ busy schoolwork.--- No wonder they have more and more pressure.A. rather thanB. owing toC. apart fromD. expect for【解析】选C。

8．The biggest full m oon of 2011 occurred on a Saturday night, ______ Chinese observers to gather outside to record the splendor.A. to leadB. ledC. leadingD. having led【解析】选C。
考查非谓语动词。
leading和最大的月亮之间是主谓关系，用现在分词做结果状语，表示自然而然的结果，而不定式则表示出乎意料的让人失望的结果。
句意为：2011年最大的月亮出现在一个星期六的晚上，致使中国观察者聚集在户外记录下这一光辉景象。

that引导同位语从句，对evidence的内容进行说明，而且没有意义，只是起连接作用。
其余选项引导同位语从句，在从句中都有意义和作用，所以只有A符合。
句意为：这些数据进一步证明孩子们更有可能患近视。
11．The radiation from the nuclear power in Japan urged all the nations around to ______ their people to make preparations for possible disasters.A. fight forB. apply forC. call onD. wait on【解析】选C。

13．He gets up at six o'clock, runs for half an hour and then has a meal; that is his morning .A．policy B．behaviour C．tendency D．routine【解析】选D。

所以选D。
policy“政策”；behaviour“举止；行为”；tendency“倾向，趋势；癖好”。
14．There happened earthquakes in many places recently, one of ____ in Japan.A. the othersB. themC. itD. which【解析】选B。
考查代词。
根据句意“最近很多地方发生地震，其中之一是发生在日本”，可知用代词them代替前面的earthquakes。
独立主格结构，因为不是完整的句子，故排除D选B。
15．—It is so hot today! Do you mind if I drink this last bottle of beer, Susan?—________. I’ll go and get some more this afternoon.A.I’m very sorryB. Yes, pleaseC. I don’t careD. Go ahead【解析】选D。
