24NelsonMandelaislovedbyeveryoneinSouthAfricabecause.

A.he’saspopularasKennedyandChurchillB.hespent27yearsinprisonC.hefoughthardagainstracismD.he’sthefirstblackpresident解析推理判断题。通读全文尤其是第一段可知,曼德拉用和平斗争的手段动摇并推翻了南非白人种族主义政权,建立了民族平等的国家,因此受到南非人民的爱戴。答案C25Mandela’sportraithasappearedatmanyplacesforthereasonsEXCEPT.

A.showingthenation’sloveforhimB.beingusedtohelpdevelopbusinessC.celebratinghisbirthdayD.raisingmoneyfortheStatueofFreedom解析细节理解题。由第三段“曼德拉的肖像出现在各种地方,包括一些商品上,这促进了工业的发展”可知,B项说法正确;由第七段的“Mostarticlesabouthisbirthday...”可推知,C项说法正确;通读全文可知,A项说法正确;而D项文中没有提到。答案D26Theunderlinedsentenceinthelastparagraphmeans“”

A.WeareproudtoliveinMandela’stime.B.Mandelaisasgreatasagod.C.WeareproudtoknowMandela.D.Mandelalivestogetherwithusall.解析细节理解题。这是在对曼德拉做了大量赞扬之后的总结性语言,是借用报刊的评述来表达全民对曼德拉的赞扬,因此说“我们生活在曼德拉时代很骄傲”。答案A27Whatcanweinferfromthearticle?A.TheStatueofFreedomwasapresentforMandela’sbirthday.B.ThearticlemighthaveappearedinanewspaperonMandela’sbirthday.C.MostarticlesfocusedonMandela’sshortings.D.Accordingtothearticle,Mandelawasaveryskilledpolitician.解析推理判断题。从倒数第三段及全文可知,答案为B项。第三段倒数第二句虽提到“theStatueofFreedom”,但并没有提到这个雕像是给曼德拉的生日礼物,故A项不对;倒数第三段“...brieflymentionedthatMandeladidhaveshortings”以及倒数第二段“Thentheyreturnedtotheirflowingpraises.”说明媒体并不是集中报道曼德拉的缺点,故C项不对;由第五段可推知,D项不对。答案BCINTERESTEDINCHILDCARE?Qualifiedpersonorpreschoolteacherneededforbusychildcarecenter,southoftheriver.Fulltimeworkguaranteed.Immediatestartnecessary.Thecandidatemustbeabletoworkasacooperative(合作的)teammember.Phone63452345foraninterviewandfaxyourresumeto63452346.WENEEDOFFICECLEANERS!ThreepeoplearerequiredforprofessionalcleaningintheCBDarea.Workinghoursfrom5:00pmonMondays,Wednesdays&Fridays.Approximatelyfivehourspershift(轮班).Agoodrecordisnecessary.Experiencepreferred.Phone63457843now.WANTTOWORKASADENTALNURSE?ThisisanexcitingopportunityforaqualifieddentalnursewithaconfidentandcheerfulpersonalitytoworkintheSchoolDentalHealthScheme.Youmustbeabletogetalongwellwithchildrenbecausetheworkinvolvestalkingtogroupsaboutdentalhealthpractices.Forfurtherinformation,visitourwebsite.Andfaxyourresumeto62344567.FLORISTWANTED!Areyouacreativeandtrainedflorist(花商,花匠)withatleasttwoyearsofexperience?Thenthismaybejustwhatyouareseeking.Thecity’sleadingFloristArtistStudioneedsanotherparttimememberontheirweddingteam.Pleasephone60987888now!28Youmayfindtheaboveadvertisements.

A.inastorewindowB.inaschoolmagazineC.inanewspaper D.onapanynoticeboard解析推理判断题。广告招聘人员包括教师、清洁工、护士等,在商店橱窗里、学校杂志上或公司通知栏上都不可能出现这样的广告,而很可能在报纸上出现。答案C29Whichofthefollowingisthemostimportantforthechildcarejob?A.Cookingskills.B.Childcareexperience.C.Theabilitytostartworkintwoweeks.D.Theabilitytoworkwellwithotherpeople.解析细节理解题。由第一则广告中的“Thecandidatemustbeabletoworkasacooperativeteammember.”可知,答案为D项。答案D30Theofficecleanerswillberequiredtoworkabouthoursaweek.

A.5 B.10C.15 D.20解析数字计算题。由第二则广告中的“Workinghoursfrom5:00pmonMondays,Wednesdays&Fridays.Approximatelyfivehourspershift.”可知,每个轮班工作5个小时左右,一周共工作3天,故每周大约工作15个小时。答案C31Thepositionofa(n)isaparttimejob.

A.florist B.artistC.preschoolteacher D.dentalnurse解析细节理解题。由第四则广告中的“Thecity’sleadingFloristArtistStudioneedsanotherparttimememberontheirweddingteam.”可判断,选A项。答案ADWaybackin1953,highschoolmathematicslookedlikeabigproblemformeandseveralofmyclassmates.Whenwereachedthe9thclass,wegotMrIyer,thestrictmathteacherwhowasalsoourclassteacher.Healwaysstucktohisdiscipline.Wehadtoarriveontime,payundividedattentiontohislectures,anddarednotneglect(遗漏)anyofhishomework.Evenso,asourclassteacher,wegottoknowhimbetter.Noticingsomeofusfidgetingonedayasthemidtermexamsapproached,hestoppedsolvingamathematicalproblemtoaskuswhy.“There’stoomuchtodo,”wesigned.“We’reafraidwe’llnevermanagetofinishourreviewbeforetheexams.”“Nothingisimpossible,”MrIyertoldus.“Thisclassroomisonthesecondfloor.Doyouhaveaproblemreachinghere?”Wereactedwithblankstares.“No,youdon’t!”hesaid,answeringhisownquestion.“Youhaveastaircasetohelpyouclimbuptothislevel.Nooneexpectsyoutomakeitintwogiantleaps...Yousimplytakeonestepatatime.Anytaskcanbesolvedifyoufocusonthenextactiontobetaken.Therestwilltakecareofitself,ifyoukeepatit.Onestepatatime.That’sthesecret.”Then,hewrotedownanoldmottoontheblackboard:“Thelongestjourneystartswithasinglestep.”Havingheardhisstaircaseanalogy(比拟),wesawhiminanewlight.Mostofmyclassmatesscoreddistinctionsinmath.AndIwentontobeeanEnglishteacher.Tothisday,wheneverIpassonMrIyer’sinvaluableadvicetomyownstudents,theybrightenupattheviewofalighteracademicburden.32Whatcanwelearnfromthefirstparagraph?A.Mathwasdifficulttomostoftheauthor’sclassmates.B.ThestudentsthoughtMrIyerwasnotagoodteacher.C.MrIyerwasseriousabouthisjobandstrictwiththestudents.D.MrIyerwouldpunishthestudentsneglectinghisdiscipline.解析推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句可知,这位老师不仅认真、严谨,而且对学生要求严格。答案C33Whatdoestheunderlinedword“fidgeting”inParagraph2probablymean?A.Excited.

A.onecanreachhisgoalsveryeasilyB.thegoalscanbereachedstepbystepC.thereisonlyonestepbetweensuccessandfailureD.taskcanbesolvedundertheguideoftheteacher解析细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中老师所说的话可知,用上楼梯来作类比是告诉我们目标是一步步实现的。答案B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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Amancamehomefromworklate,tiredandfoundhis5yearoldsonwaitingforhimatthedoor.“Daddy,mayIaskyouaquestion?”“Yeah,sure,whatisit?”repliedtheman.36“Ifyoumustknow,Imake$20anhour.”“Oh,”thelittleboyreplied,withhisheaddown.Thenhelookedupandsaid,“Daddy,mayIborrow$10?”Thefatherwasangry,“Iftheonlyreasonyouaskedforthatistoborrowsomemoneytobuyasillytoy,thenyoushouldgotobed.”37
