11、C B D B57. D 本题考查作者的观点，属于综合主旨题。根据第二段except the successful outcome和文章最后一长句，可以得出婴儿之所以会学会一些行为是因为他们通过这些行为可以获得成功的感觉。A项是人们以往的观点，B项和C项只是表面的原因，并不是实际原因，所以正确答案为D。58. B 本题为细节题。根据第三段第一句话，Papousek通过使用用牛奶奖励孩子的办法，就是为了教会孩子完成一些简单的动作。所以ACD都不是此举的目的，正确答案为B。59. C 本题为细节题。根据第三段第二句话， Papousek在研究中发现，婴儿吃饱之后会拒绝牛奶，但是还会继续重复已经学会

12、的动作，说明即使不给牛奶，他们也会重复一些简单动作，因此A不正确。 B, D内容基本一致，这两项都不是Papousek要去发现的东西。C项符合原文，故为正确答案。60. A 本题为细节题。根据文章最后一句话，Papousek得出结论：婴儿感到高兴的不是因为灯光，而是因为他们所获得的解决问题和掌握技能后的成功感，再有就是人类本身有一种理解世界、控制世界的渴求。B, C, D项都没有提及，正确答案为A。61. D 本题为细节题，根据见上题。正确答案为D。62. A 本题为主旨题。文章讲述人类从前人那里继承了许多文化成果，并将其传乘下去，所以文章主题为文化继承。答案为A。63. C 本题为是非题。文

13、章第二段开始讲述文化的定义，它包括一代人传给另一代人的所有思想、知识、做事的方法、习惯、价值观以及处世态度等，文章后半部分又阐述文化与本能的不同，因此A, B, D都属于文化的范畴，C项不属于文化，故正确答案为C。64. B 本题为语义题，需要根据上下文来推断。根据原文 “it can store new information,infinitely more rapidly than the process of mutation and biological evolution ”, 可以推断出mutation 和biological evolution表达相近的意思，是“变化、进化”的意

14、思，而exchange指“交换、兑换”, communication指“交际、交流”, existence指“生存”，故正确答案为B。65. D 本题为推断题。根据文章第一句话，人类的发明创造是永无止境的，所以A项与原文一致。根据第一段 “this process of cultural transmission yields enormous economy”,B项与此句意思一致。C项与原文第二句话意思一致，同时根据这一句，人类最大的发明创造就是不去发明创造，而是继承前辈的文化传统，所以D项与原文不符。正确答案为D。66. B 本题为推断题。根据文章最后一句话 “The transmissi

15、on of culture is more flexiblethan instinct, and can growmore rapidly than the process of mutation and biological evolution”, 可以推断出文化传播比生物本能发展要快得多，反过来也就是说生物本能也在发展，但是速度要比文化传播慢得多，因此可以推断出B项为正确答案，A项和C项与原文相反，D项原文没有提及。Part V. Cloze67-86: C B A B D C A D B A C D C B A B D D A C67. C 原句意思是：此项研究为人们意想不到的，因此C符

16、合句意。A为“震惊”，B为“激动”，D为“迷惑”，均不符题意。68. B 此句not only之后应为倒装，并且feeling是复数形式，故选B。69. A 此句的意思是：人的情感不仅很难用语言描述清楚，而且很难一一列举出来，所以答案选择A。70. B 此句的意思是：几乎没有人对有多少种情感达成一致意见，C和D不符句意,scarcely表示“几乎不”（程度）, rarely表示“几乎不”（频率），所以选择B。71. D 前三项为近义词，意思是“重要的”，而此句指的是人最基本的情感，所以选D。72. C 此句为that引导的定语从句，修饰something，故只能选C。73. A 这里这种积极的

17、情感是指 “快乐、高兴”，所以正确答案为“joy”。其他三项不符题意。74. D search for 意思是“寻找、寻求”，其他三项都不正确。75. B as a rule是固定词组，意思是“一般来说”。76. A 这里填的词和reach the desired goal 表达同样的意思，即，“实现或获得目标”，所以应选择“obtain”。77. C for 引出附加的理由，应置于句尾。since引出显而易见的理由。when 和 if不符题意。故正确答案为C。78. D 此句意思是：既然人们经常渴望不同的目标，所以有人在修理汽车中找到快乐，而有人在解数学题中找到快乐，这些都是可以理解的。所以

18、应选D。79. C 前后两句表示对照，故选C。80. B 根据后文“We can experience the joy together”，此句意思是“分享共同的目标和兴趣”，故选share。cultivate意思是“培养”, develop是“发展”, form是“形成”，均不符合句意。81. A 此表达方式的意思是“养家”，故选A。82. B 此句的固定搭配为 “have difficulty in doing sth.”, 故选B。83. D bad意思是“糟糕的、坏的”。 incorrect 意思是“不正确的”。 unwilling意思是“愿意的”。 negative意思是“消极的”。

19、根据题意应选D。84. D small指“数量少、体积小”， unnecessary指 “不必要的”， less指“较少的”，minor指“不重要的、琐碎的”，故选D。85. A 此句意思是“外出赴约时，拉链坏了会让人感到沮丧”。frustration“沮丧”, sadness“悲伤”, ignorance“无知”, grief “伤心”，故选A。86. C 此句意思是：如果你想让某事发生，或者你觉得这件事应该发生，但是有人或物却阻止其发生，你就会生气了。所以应该选择should, 正确答案为C。Part VI. Translation87. while he feels very sad i

Both the passages and the questions will be spoken only once. After youhear a question, you must choose the best answer

40、 from the four choices marked A, B, Cand D. Then write the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet 2.Passage OneMr. and Mrs. Brown were going abroad for their holiday. They had a dog calledBlackie which they were very fond of. But they could not take him with them, so theylooked for a good place to

41、 leave him while they were away, and at last found a placewhere dogs were looked after very well while their owners were away. They took Blackiethere just before they left for their holiday, and sadly said goodbye to him.At the end of their holiday, they got back to England very late at night, and a

42、s theythought that the place where Blackie was staying might be closed at that hour, they decidedto wait until the next morning to get him back.So the next morning Mr. Brown got into his car and drove off happily to get Blackie.When he reached home with a dog, he said to his wife, “Do you know, dear

43、, I dontthink that Blackie can have enjoyed his stay at that place very much. He barked all theway home in the car as if he wanted to tell me something.”Band Four 171Mrs. Brown looked at the dog carefully and then answered, “You are quite right,dear. He was certainly trying to tell you something. Bu

44、t he wasnt trying to tell you thathe hadnt enjoyed his stay at that place. He was only complaining that you were bringingme the wrong dog home. This isnt Blackie.”Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. How was the dog taken care of when they were abroad for the holiday?2

45、7. Why didnt they go to get their dog once they had arrived in England?28. Why did the dog bark all the way home?Passage TwoThe worlds first completely automatic railway was built under the busy streets ofLondon. The railway is called the Victoria Line, and it is part of the complete Londonundergrou

46、nd railway.The new Victoria Line was opened in 1969. This new line was very different fromthe others.The stations on the other lines need a lot of workers to sell tickets, and to checkand to collect them when people leave the trains. This is all different on the VictoriaLine. Here a machine checks a

47、nd collects the tickets, and there are no workers on theplatforms.On the train, there is only one worker. If necessary, this man can drive the train.But usually he just starts it; it runs and stops by itself. The trains are controlled by electricalsignals which are sent by so-called “command spots”.

48、 The command spots are thesame distance apart. Each sends a certain signal. The train always moves at the speedthat the command spots allow. If the command spot sends no signals, the train will stop.Most of the control work is done by computers. The computers also fix the trainsspeeds, and send the

49、signals to the command spots.Other machines make sure that the trains are always a safe distance apart. If onetrain stays too long at a station, the other trains will then automatically move slower. Sothere is no danger of accidents on the line.Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have ju

50、st heard.29. On the Victoria Line, who checks and collects the tickets?30. What is the job of the only one worker on the Victoria Line train?31.

Family members gather in a garden or large open-air space in the light ofthe moon. They drink tea and feast on d

54、elicious moon-shaped cakes filled with meator sweets, depending on their family custom. If the family is from northern China,the cakes have meat in them; if the family came from southern China, the cakes have asweet filling. The cakes, an important food on this occasion, represent an event in Chines

55、ehistory. A long time ago, the people of China used round cakes in a special way:they sent secret massages to each other in them. The messages gave instructions for thepeople of the north and south to join together to fight against the evil emperor whoruled them at that time. The trick worked and th

56、e people were able to overthrow theirruler.
