19、B.seeC.thinkD.guess答案:A解析 空格前的listen to表示“听”的动作，再结合表并列的and及空格后的内容可知，本句所要表达的是听到教师上课时那抑扬顿挫、悦耳动听的讲课声，而hear表示的就是“听”的结果，所以应选A。9.A.makingB.changingC.expressingD.giving答案:B解析 结合上下文可知，句意：教师根据所讲的内容不断改变语调，所以B正确。10.A.talkingB.thinkingC.hearingD.saying答案:A解析 选项中talk和say在含义上符合句意，但say是及物动词，强调说的内容，不能与about搭配，故排除，t

20、alk可作不及物动词，与about构成固定搭配，意为“谈论”，所以A正确。11.A.tellB.expressC.showD.mean答案:D解析 tell意为“告诉”，express意为“表明”，show意为“表达”，mean意为“意味着”，结合句意可知，D正确。12.A.goodB.badlyC.wellD.actively答案:C解析 act为动词，应用副词修饰，首先可排除A；badly意为“恶劣地，非常”，actively意为“活跃地”，均不符合句意，排除；本句要表达的意思是优秀教师虽有演戏的天赋却未必会很好地演戏，故选C。13.A.thingsB.differencesC.point

21、sD.jobs答案:B解析 由下文对演员和教师的职业特点的比较可知，此处指的应该是两者的区别。所以B正确，此处的there are differences between.and.意为“与有区别”。14.A.differentB.sameC.aboveD.following答案:B解析 上文提到，演员只需将事先背好的台词说出来就可以了，也就是说演员在演一个固定的角色时，台词都是相同的，所以用the same，故选B。15.A.justB.neverC.everD.even答案:D解析 结合上下文可知，空格后的内容与前文是递进关系，即除了台词一样以外，甚至连动作，以及说话的方式都是事先安排好的，

22、故选D。16.A.readB.knownC.fixedD.written答案:C解析 结合上文以及本句句意可知，台词甚至是动作，以及说话的方式都应该是事先安排好的，所以C正确。17.A.naturalB.realC.falseD.clear答案:A解析 结合句意可知，演员们所要做的就是把准备好的台词和动作在舞台上自然地表演出来，所以A正确。18.A.isB.worksC.hasD.teaches答案:B解析 结合上下文及本句句意可知，教师与演员在工作方式上有很大的区别，所以B正确。本句是过渡句，与上文形成了对比。19.A.groupB.partyC.classD.paly答案:C解析 take

23、 an active part in意为“在中起着积极的作用”，因为本段讲的是教师的工作，所以应选C。20.A.inventB.discoverC.teachD.continue答案:A解析 句意：教师无法把所有要讲的内容全背下来，他必须在讲课的过程中_。由此可知，A正确，此时invent it指的就是创造性地进行教学。discover意为“发现”，指的是原本就存在的东西现在发现了，与句意不符，故排除。 Reading Comprehension Students enrolled at least half time may borrow up to $3,000 form the gove

The object may be to get a tree of the right height, and to help the growth of small side branches which will thicke

55、n its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pruning may be done to make the tree healthier. You may cut out diseased or dead wood, or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus causing wounds. A tree may grow healthier by removing the branches that are locking up the centre and

Pruning is usually done in winter, for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without the interfe
