B.feedC.invite D.please答案：D上一句提到服务员每天都与顾客打交道，出现问题时，服务员有能力用某种方式让事情顺利进行，由此可知让顾客满意是服务员的职责。please“使满意”。37．A.waiter B.cookC.servant D.director答案：A第一段的开头部分明确提到作者是“服务员”，此处选A与之相呼应。38．A.group B.numberC.family D.class答案：A根据下一句的开头部分以及下一段的开头部分可知前来就餐的是一个非常重要的“团体”。39．A.takenupwith B.madeupofC.addedupto D.recognizedas答案：Bbemadeupof表示“由……组成”，本句的意思是“这个团体是由本市时尚界的重要人物组成的”。40．A.introduced B.satisfiedC.seated D.dressed答案：C上一段提到这个团体来到饭店是为了吃午餐，所以此处表示的是他们舒服地“就座”后。A项在文章中没有信息支持；B项与本句中的comfortably搭配不合理。41．A.bought B.soldC.ordered D.got答案：C这个团体来到饭店舒适地就座后，“点”好了饮料。此处的order表示“点(饭菜等)”。前两项都不符合常识；根据下文可知他们当时还没有拿到饮料，所以D项错误。42．A.Therefore B.HoweverC.Besides D.Though答案：B上一句提到正常情况下，领班负责酒类服务，本句提到经理让作者在那天下午为客人服务，由此可推断出此处表示的是转折关系。43．A.often B.onceC.never D.little答案：C本句后半部分提到作者也从未给12个人的团体提供过服务，而且本句后半句是倒装结构，由此可知前半部分表示的同样是否定意义，即作者“从未”进行过酒类服务。44．A.set B.brokeC.cleaned D.shook答案：A上一句提到作者把12个酒杯放在托盘上并朝餐桌走去，这里是把其中一个酒杯“摆放”在第一位顾客的面前。打破酒杯是后来发生的事情，因此B项错误；C、D两项不符合常识。45．A.got B.caughtC.forgot D.lost答案：D本句后半部分提到6个酒杯掉在了地上，由此可知作者当时没有握紧，所以使用lost。46．A.stood B.layC.kept D.stayed答案：B根据常识可知酒杯打破后碎了，这里用lay表示“保持某种状态”。如果选择C项，需要加be动词；D项表示“停留”，语意不恰当。47．A.manager B.guestC.man D.woman答案：D本段中间部分提到6个酒杯掉在了一位年轻女士的头上，所以作者多次向这位“女士”道歉。48．A.tookover B.cametoC.gaveup D.rushedagainst答案：B经理闻讯后迅速“赶来”帮助作者进行清理。takeover表示“接管”；giveup表示“放弃”，rushagainst表示“与……碰撞”，都不符合语境。49．A.repeatedly B．regretfullyC．impatiently D．angrily答案：A上一段最后一句提到作者多次向那位女士和团体中的其他人道歉。本句叙述的是这个团体原谅了作者，由此可知女士“反复地”告诉作者没有关系。50．A.hear B．tellC．change D．learn答案：D此处是经理在向作者传授经验，显然是让作者从中吸取教训，“学”到知识。51．A.apology B．excitementC．nervousness D．carelessness答案：C经理告诫作者不要有“紧张”和失望的表现，过错和事故时有发生。作者的过失已经发生，因此D项不正确。52．A.nose B．faceC．head D．hand答案：C根据本句中的confident一词可知经理鼓励作者昂“首”挺胸。53．A.behaved B．respectedC．visited D．understood答案：B虽然作者一时失手打碎了几个酒杯，并冒犯了其中一位重要顾客，可是经理并没有指责她，而是迅速挽回了局面，并向作者面授经验，由此可推断这位经理非常受人“尊重”。54．A.new B．famousC．terrible D．close答案：D上文中提到女士和这个团体的其他人员原谅了作者的失误，本段中提到饭店经理在附近地区颇受尊重，由此可推断经理和这个团体的关系十分“密切”。B项在文章中没有信息支持。55．A.calm B．comfortableC．special D．possible答案：A经理的声望以及同团体之间的密切关系让事态“平静”下来，并因此得到了团体对作者的宽恕。第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)A(·安徽·D篇)Shouldweallowmodernbuildingstobebuiltnexttoolderbuildingsinhistoricareaofacity?Inordertoanswerthisquestion,wemustfirstexaminewhetherpeoplereallywanttopreservethehistoricfeelofanarea.Notallhistoricalbuildingsareattractive.However,theremaybeotherreasons—forexample,economic(经济的)reasons—whytheyshouldbepreserved.So,letusassumethathistoricalbuildingsarebothattractiveandimportanttothemajorityofpeople.Whatshouldwedothenifanewbuildingisneeded?Inmyview,newarchitecturalstylescanexistperfectlywellalongsideanolderstyle.Indeed,therearemanyexamplesinmyownhometownofTourswheremoderndesignshavebeenplacedverysuccessfullynexttooldbuildings.Aslongasthebuildinginquestionispleasinganddoesnotdominate(影响)itssurroundingstoomuch,itoftenimprovestheattractivenessofthearea.Itistruethatthereareexamplesofnewbuildingswhichhavespoilt(破坏)theareatheyarein,butthesamecanbesaidofsomeoldbuildingstoo.Yetpeoplestillspeakagainstnewbuildingsinhistoricareas.Ithinkthisissimplybecausepeoplearenaturallyconservative(保守的)anddonotlikechange.Althoughwehavetorespectpeople'sfeelingsasfellowusersofthebuildings,Ibelievethatitisthedutyofthearchitectandplannertomove_things_forward.Ifwealwaysreproducedwhatwastherebefore,wewouldallstillbelivingincaves.Thus,Iwouldargueagainstcopyingpreviousarchitecturalstylesandchoosesomethingfreshanddifferent,eventhoughthatmightbethemoreriskychoice.文章大意：本文论述了在一些城市的历史性区域是否应该建造一些新的建筑的话题。56．Whatdoestheauthorsayabouthistoricalbuildingsinthefirstparagraph?A．Someofthemarenotattractive.B．Mostofthemaretooexpensivetopreserve.C．Theyaremorepleasingthanmodernbuildings.D．Theyhavenothingtodowiththehistoricfeelofanarea.答案：A推理判断题。从第一段第三句的“Notallhistoricalbuildingsareattractive.(并不是所有的历史性建筑都是有吸引力的)”可知答案。57．Whichofthefollowingistrueaccordingtotheauthor?A．Weshouldreproducethesameoldbuildings.B．Buildingsshouldnotdominatetheirsurroundings.C．Someoldbuildingshavespoilttheareatheyarein.D．Nooneunderstandswhypeoplespeakagainstnewbuildings.答案：C推理判断题。从第三段的“Itistruethatthereareexamplesofnewbuildingswhichhavespoilttheareatheyarein,butthesamecanbesaidofsomeoldbuildingstoo”可知答案。58．By“movethingsforward”inthelastparagraph,theauthorprobablymeans“________.”A．destroyoldbuildingsB．putthingsinadifferentplaceC．choosenewarchitecturalstylesD．respectpeople'sfeelingsforhistoricalbuildings答案：C词义猜测题。由下一句话“Ifwealwaysreproducedwhatwastherebefore,wewouldallstillbelivingincaves(如果我们总是重复以前的建设，我们还一直生活在洞穴中)”可知，上一句话意为：改进建筑风格是建筑师和计划者的责任。故选C项。59．Whatisthemainpurposeofthepassage?A．Toexplainwhypeopledislikechange.B．Towarnthatweshouldenduplivingincaves.C．Toadmithownewbuildingshaveruinedtheirsurroundings.D．Toarguethatmodernbuildingscanbebuiltinhistoricareas.答案：D主旨大意题。本文在开头就提出了中心话题：是否我们应该允许在城市的历史性区域建造一些新的大楼？然后展开论述。故选D项。BSomepeoplemakeartwithpaint,andothersusepencilorclay(粘土).ButItalianartistMaurizioSavinipreferstousebrightpinkgum—afterithasbeenchewed.Savinimakeshugesculptures(雕塑)ofbearsandevenpeopleoutofusedchewinggum.Eachsculpturerequiresthousandsofpiecesofgum.“Iliketousechewinggumbecauseitseemedtomeamaterialthatcanbeusedinmanywayscomparedwiththoseusedbythetraditionalartssuchaspainting，”Savinisays.Howdoeshedoit?Theprocessisalotlikeworkingwithclay.“Iworkthechewinggumwhenitiswarmandshapeitwithaknife，”saysSavini.Then,heputsachemicalontoeachgumsculpturetomakethegumstayinplace.Savini'sstickyarthasbeenshownincitieslikeLondon,Paris,andRome,wherehelivestoday.Saviniisn'ttheonlyartisttoworkwithgum.Hispinksculptureshaveinspiredartistsallovertheworldtogetcreativewiththestickymatter.LondonartistBenWilsonpaintssmallpaintingsontoflatpiecesofchewedgumhefindsstucktostreetsandsidewalks.InCanada,JasonKronenwaldusesdifferentcoloredgumtomakeportraitsoffamouspeople.Kronenwaldseldomchewsgumhimself.Instead,hisfriendshelpchewgumforhimwhilehe'sworking.“Attimesitcanmakemedisgusted(令人作呕的)，butIjustpayattentiontothecolorsIneedandgetthesculpturegoing，”hesays.InAmerica，JamieMarraccini'sartdependsoncolor,sohetestsdifferentkindsofgumbeforeusingthem.Tofindoutwhatcolorthechewedgumwillbecomeoncehardened,heletsitageforuptosixmonths.“I'vecreated30workstotalingmorethan35,000piecesofgum，”saysMarraccini.That'salotofgum!Sothinktwicethenexttimeyouthrowawayawadofgum.Maybewhatseemsliketrashcouldactuallybethebeginningofagreatpieceofart.文章大意：本文介绍了一些艺术家用口香糖为原料进行艺术创作。60．ThegumSaviniusedtomakeartis________.A.expensiveB.second­handC.hard
