They are the lies that have been designed for innocent people who are ready to believe them.INSTANT COLOR TVIn 1962 there was only one TV channel in Sweden, and it broadcast in black and white. The stations Kjell Stepson, appeared on the news to announce that thanks to a newly developed technology, all viewers could now quickly and easily transform their existing sets to display color reception. All they had to do was pull a nylon stocking over their TV screen, and they would begin to see their favorite shows in color. Reportedly, hundreds of thousands of people, were taken in. Actual color TV transmission only started to appear in Sweden on April 1, 1970. SAN SERRIFFEIn 1977 the British newspaper The Guardian published a special seven-page supplement (增刊) in honor of the tenth anniversary of San Serfiffe, a small republic located in the Indian Ocean. A series of articles affectionately asked for more information about the beautiful holiday spot. Few noticed that everything about the island was made up.NIXON FOR PRESIDENTIn 1992 American National Public Radios Talk of the Nation program announced that Richard Nixon, in a surprise move, was running for President again. His new campaign slogan was, “I didnt do anything wrong, and I wont do it again.” Accompanying this announcement were audio clips (片断) of Nixon delivering his election speech. Listeners responded immediately to the announcement, flooding the show with calls expressing shock and anger. Only during the second haft of the show did the host John Huckleberry reveal that the announcement was a practical joke. Nixons voice was copied by comedian Rich Little.36.

Heres a guide to some of the words and phrases you might come across. Its a good idea in the UK to arrange a mortgage with a bank before you start looking. This is when the bank tells you how much money they will lend you so you have a good idea of how much you can afford. The next step is to go to an estate agent and see what sort of properties they have available in your budget range and in your area. If you see something you like, the estate agent will arrange for you to view the property, so that you can see the house or flat for yourself. If you see something that takes your eye, you put in an offer. The vendor (卖家) can accept or decline this offer, and if the vendor accepts it, you can move forward with the sale. However, as you dont pay any money at this point, the offer isnt legally binding (具有约束力), and in theory, you can pull out of the offer at any time that you like. Your next step will probably be to get a structural survey done. A qualified surveyor will inspect the house and write a report that illustrates any structural problems, like damp or drainage problems. If you still want to go ahead with the sale, you need to appoint a lawyer to do the legal paperwork, if you already own a house you might also be busy trying to sell it Many house owners prefer to sell to first-time buyers (those people who dont already own a home), as they are not in a chain (waiting for other people to buyer house before they can buy their next house). Finally, once the contracts are signed and exchanged, you complete on your house. You get the keys and you can move in whenever you want. Then you might want to throw a house-warming party. Congratulation!40.

Owners.C. Lawyers. D. Surveyors.43. The passage is maybe one that _.A. give some advice on the houseB. give some tips to buyersC. introduces a book on travelersD. introduces a guide to visitors【答案解析】【单项填空】1A。contain一般“包含”得是一个整体，侧重“内有”的意思；include往往包含的是整体的一个部分或几个部分，including在这里是介词。依题意A为最佳选项。2D。supply sb. with sth. 或supply sth. to sth.；offer sb. sth.或offer sth. to sb.。依题意应选D。3D。根据句意：她总是得到经理的表扬，令同事们非常羡慕。be the envy of sb.意为“是某人羡慕的对象”。4B。in case“以防；万一”；in that case“既然那样、假使那样的话”；as the case may be“视情况而定”；on the case“处理事件”。依题意B项最符合。5B。expect sth. from sb.。6 D。to go to this small town在句中作定语，修饰the best ways，而谓语动词要根据主语the best ways而定。若ways改为way，则选C。7D。be sick of sth. = be tired of“对感到厌烦”；be tired with“因而感到疲劳”。故选D。8A。make a claim for/ on/ to意为“对提出请求或要求”。又如： They made a claim for higher pay。9C。providing/ provided that意为“倘若、假使”= if，引导的状语从句中的谓语动词用一般现在时。10C。at its highest意为“达到最高点”。11A。指特定日子及星期的早晨时，常用介词on。但与early，late连用时，介词用in。early / late in the morning = in the early/ late morning。start off for 意为“动身前往”，for表示方向。12C。根据句子结构及句子意思可知，考查介词on后引导的宾语从句。选项A只可引导状语从句。选项C“whatever”相当于anything that。选项D“anything”后如有that也对。13B。答语的意思是：这么说来，似乎（那个时候）你没在仔细听。故用过去进行时态。14D。wish引导的宾语从句表示与过去事实相反的愿望，应用过去完成时。15A。本题考查短语动词的辨析。句意：在故事的开始不要先提那个，否则会泄露令人吃惊的结局（因而故事也不精彩了）。give away “泄露”；give out“分发、散发”；give up“放弃”；give off表示“散发气/光/ 热”。根据题意，排除B、C、D。【完形填空】16B。外面下雨了，人们都在躲雨，等候雨停。下文母亲的话“Well wait until.”也给出了提示。从后半句看，一些人耐心，一些人有些恼怒，所以不能说大家都在抱怨。17C。别的人恼怒，当然因为大自然的突然降雨打乱了他们正常的工作生活节奏。18D。雨水冲刷走了世界上的尘土和脏物。19A。catch me相当于catch my attentio
