9、句意可知，此处使用不定式做目的状语，同时此处是make的复合结构，宾语herself和宾语补足语hear之间为动宾关系，故用过去分词表被动。故选D。9.

13、：你不仅要习惯在困难的条件下工作，也要更加留心把工作做好。由句意可知，第一空指“习惯在困难的条件下工作”，固定搭配“get used to doing”表示“习惯做某事”；第二空的pay attention to 中的to为介词，后接动名词作宾语，表示“留心做某事”，故选B项。13. Suddenly, a tall man driving a golden carriage _ the girl and took her away, _ into the woods.A. seizing; disappearedB. seized; disappearedC. seizing; disapp

14、earingD. seized; disappearing【答案】D【解析】【详解】考查句子结构分析。句意：突然，一个驾着金色马车的高个子男人抓住女孩，把她带走，消失在树林里。主语是a tall man，driving是现在分词作后置定语，所以后面缺谓语动词，且空格处与took是并列的谓语动词，故用seized，排除A、C；这个男人抓走了女孩，随后消失在树丛中。所以disappear是人消失在树丛中，是主动的，所以用disappearing表示伴随状态，排除 B。故答案为。14. When she came in, she was surprised to find a stranger _

16、upon sb/sth“眼睛盯着”，eyes和fix形成动宾关系，所以是fixed。故选B项。15. _in painting, John didnt notice evening approaching.A. To absorbB. To be absorbedC. AbsorbedD.

17、，再分析非谓语动词和逻辑主语在搭配使用时是主动还是被动关系，最后根据句意选择正确的答案。第二部分 阅读理解 （共两节，满分50分）第一节 阅读下列短文，选出最佳选项。（共15小题，每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）AAn increasing number of students worldwide are considering studying abroad.

41、谈论獾是为了解释发生损害的原因，故选D。CEarly or Later Day CareMany young parents are confused about whether their children should have early day care, and there have always been different views on this subject.The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby believes that separation from parents during the sensitive “attachment

42、” period from birth to three may scar a childs personality and lead to psychological problems in later life. Some people have drawn the conclusion from Bowlbys work that children should not be subjected to day care before three because of the parental separation it causes, and many people do believe

43、 this.According to Bowlby, a great deal of psychological harm can occur when young children are separated from their parents. If they are left without touch for a while, they will have a higher stress level. Parents influence on their childrens well-being may never be greater than during the earlies

44、t years of life, when a childs brain is developing rapidly and when nearly all of her or his experiences are shaped by parents and the family environment.However, there are critics. Some anthropologists (人类学家) point out that the love affair between children and parents found in modern societies does

45、 not usually exist in traditional societies. There has been a long history of the fact that father and mother did not bring up their children alone. Plato, around 394 B.C., argued that a system of early child care would free women to participate in society. Results from Israeli and Dutch studies sho

46、w that child-raising duties are more evenly distributed among a broader group of people.Besides, studies have reported that early day care has a neutral or slightly positive effect on childrens development. They learn the benefits of being socially smart, understanding the concept of sharing and car

47、ing. They promote concentration skills, which is very important in their learning. There are games where children are taught basic language and mathematical skills through stories and everyday examples.Common sense tells us that early day care would not be so widespread if children had problems with

48、 it. But Bowlbys analysis raises the possibility that it has delayed effects. The possibility that such care might lead to more mental illness 15 or 20 years later can only be explored by the use of statistics. Whatever the long-term effects, parents sometimes find the immediate effects difficult to

49、 deal with. Children under three dislike leaving their parents and show unhappiness. At the age of three almost all children find it easy to go to the nursery. The matter, then, is far from being clearly known, though experience and available evidence indicate that early day care is reasonable for y

50、oung children.23. The passage mainly argues whether _.A children over three will accept school educationB. children under three should be sent to nursery schoolsC. the family relationship is different in traditional societiesD. early day care should be totally replaced in modern societies24. Which o

51、f the following supports Bowlbys theory?A. Early day care wouldnt be so popular if it had negative effects.B. Separation from parents for young children is common in history.C. Parents find the immediate effects of early day care difficult to deal with.D. Studies show early day care has a positive e

53、ttlement calls for the use of statistics26. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?I: Introduction P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: ConclusionA. B. C. D. 【答案】23. B 24. C 25. D 26. B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，讨论了三岁之前的儿童是否应该被送去日间护理托儿所。文章分别介绍了支持与反对两种不同观点，并详细说明了具体的理由。【23题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章

54、第一段“Many young parents are confused about whether their children should have early day care, and there have always been different views on this subject.”可知本文是一篇议论文，讨论了三岁的儿童是否应该被送去日间护理托儿所。文章分别介绍了支持与反对两种不同观点。故B项正确。24题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby believes that separation from

55、 parents during the sensitive “attachment” period from birth to three may scar a childs personality and lead to psychological problems in later life.”可知John Bowlby认为三岁之前孩子与父母分开会给孩子的个性带来影响，并对孩子以后的生活带来精神方面的问题。而性格和精神方面的问题是难以处理的。故C项正确。【25题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段前两句“Common sense tells us that early day care woul

56、d not be so widespread if children had problems with it. But Bowlbys analysis raises the possibility that it has delayed effects.”可知作者认为三岁之前送孩子去托儿所的影响是存在争议的，很难说这种做法是正确的还是错误的。再根据第三句“The possibility that such care might lead to more mental illness 15 or 20 years later can only be explored by the use o

57、f statistics.”可知我们要根据具体的数据来分析这个问题。故D项正确。【26题详解】篇章结构题。本文是一篇议论文。第一段提出文章讨论的话题，也就是Introduction；第二三段解释英国精神分析专家John Bowlby反对三岁之前送孩子去托儿所的理由，也就是point1；第四五段是支持送孩子去托儿所的理由，也就是point2；四五段是两个次要点，也就是sp1和sp2；文章最后一段总结了最终的结论。所以B项与文章的结构相吻合。故B项正确。【点睛】本文小题4考查了篇章结构题，此类题型对学生的整体框架能力要求较高；通常既涉及篇章架构，也会涉及写作手法。通常说来作者会根据不同文章的内容和写作目的，采取记叙、描写、议论、说明或应用文体。作者也会采用叙述、例证、比较对照等不同的组织结构。不同文体的阅读难度、要求和任务不同，阅读方法也应不同。增强对篇章结构的理解能力有助于提高阅读质量。例题：（2008年全国高考浙江卷C篇） In the course of working my way through school, I took many jobs I would rather forget. But none of these jobs was a
