B.TheFrench.C.TheMexicans. D.TheRussians.答案A解析细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,中国人与很多美国人一样,认为沉默是交流过程中的基本构成部分,谈话中出现沉默通常暗示听者需要仔细考虑。31Whatdoestheauthoradvisenursestodoaboutsilence?A.Letitcontinueasthepatientpleases.B.Breakitwhiletreatingpatients.C.Evaluateitsharmtopatients.D.Makeuseofitshealingeffects.答案D解析细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句内容可知,作者建议护士们充分利用沉默的治愈价值来帮助护理病人。32Whatmaybethebesttitleforthetext?A.SoundandSilenceB.WhatItMeanstoBeSilentC.SilencetoNativeAmericansD.SpeechIsSilver;SilenceIsGold答案B解析主旨大意题。通读全文内容可知,文章主要说明沉默具有文化特异性,在不同的文化中,沉默表达的含义和作用各不相同。因此B项最具概括性。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.33“Ifyoumustknow,Imake$20anhour.”“Oh,”thelittleboyreplied,withhisheaddown.Thenhelookedupandsaid,“Daddy,mayIborrow$10?”Thefatherwasangry,“Iftheonlyreasonyouaskedforthatistoborrowsomemoneytobuyasillytoy,thenyoushouldgotobed.”34

38A.followingB.recentC.oldest D.last答案:A解析:第一句提到“英国人在16和17世纪把英语带到了北美”,因此此处用inthefollowing300years表示“在接下来的300年里”。39A.such B.tooC.so D.great答案:C解析:so...that...引导结果状语从句,且由many可知应用so。40A.either B.bothC.neither D.two答案:B解析:上文只提到两个地点GreatBritain和NorthAmerica,又因此处表示肯定的含义,故应用both。41A.hardly B.difficultlyC.clearly D.easily答案:D解析:由于语言发生了很大变化,人们可以很“容易地”通过说话方式把美国人和英国人区分开。42A.with B.fromC.to D.and答案:B解析:由本句前面的tell可知此处用from,tell...from...意为“把……和……区分开”。43A.disappeared B.appearedC.spoke D.took答案:A解析:由“butwerekeptinAmerica”可知本题应该用disappeared与werekept相对应。44A.not B.hardlyC.too D.still答案:D解析:此句是对“butwerekeptinAmerica”的进一步说明。45A.America B.FranceC.England D.Germany答案:C解析:由but前的“indifferentpartsofAmerica”可知此处应该选择England。46A.word B.formsC.ones D.ways答案:C解析:由前面的“newwords”可知此处应该用oldwords。用ones代替words。47A.another B.alsoplantedC.aplant D.akindoffood答案:A解析:由上文的“onekindofplant”可知,此处应指另外一种植物,即用another。48A.added B.hasaddedC.discovered D.hasdiscovered答案:B解析:在近三个世纪以来,要想表达以前不知道的事物,就必须增加词汇,因此应用hasadded。49A.anywhere B.insomecountriesC.before D.forcenturies答案:C解析:增加的词汇用来表示以前(before)所不知道的事物。anywhere“任何地方”;insomecountries“在一些国家”;forcenturies“数个世纪”。这三者均与句意不符。50A.new B.shortC.different D.surprising答案:C解析:从后面的两句话可知,此处是指用“不同的”词汇指代同一物体。51A.produced B.madeC.developed D.used答案:D解析:既然“radio”是一个词汇,它应该是被世界各地的人们所使用(used)。而produce意为“生产”;make意为“制作”;develop意为“发展”。52A.to B.awayC.with D.from答案:C解析:havesomethingtodowith是固定结构,意为“与……有关系”。其他选项不符合句意。53A.has B.haveC.havegiven D.wasgiven答案:A解析:本句的主语是前面的anything,由此排除B项和C项;又因为本句的时态为一般现在时,可排除D项。54A.thing B.storyC.belief D.expression答案:A解析:此处thing意为“事实,情况”,来表明美国英语和英国英语越来越接近。而story意为“故事”;belief意为“信仰,信念”;expression意为“表达”。55A.from B.inC.on D.to答案:A解析:与前面的inmovies,ontelevision并列,应用fromtravellers,表示“游客所讲的语言”。56A.As B.BecauseC.Besides D.Becauseof答案:D解析:从后半句可以看出,正是由于上句话中所提到的原因才得出结论:美国人似乎对英国人产生了影响。because表示原因时是连词,其后接句子,而becauseof是介词,后接单词或词组,符合句意。57A.different B.moredifferentC.thesame D.moreuseful答案:C解析:上文中谈到美国人对英国人产生了影响,所以作者最后说“将来有一天大西洋两岸的英语可能会一样”,而不是“不同的”“更不同”或“更有用的”。四、语篇填空(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。Inrecentyears,learningChinesehasbeepopularamongpeoplearound58.world.Lastmonth,I59.(receive)anemailfrommycousinJackinCanada.Hesaidhewas60.(interest)inChinese,andaskedme61.(find)himsomebooksintendedforChinesebeginners.Iwasverypleasedtodosuch62.favour.SoIwenttoseveralbookstores,hopingtofindsomethingsuitableforhim.63.(final)IselectedasetofChinesetextbooksamonga64.(various)ofsimilarones.ThenIwenttoapostofficetohavethem
