A．which

B．when

C．as

D．where

答案：

D

解析过程：

句意：在日常交流中这本书帮助了我很多，尤其是在我的工作之中,因为在工作中,良好的印象很重要。通过分析句子成分可知本题考查定语从句,先行词是work.因为后面的定语从句a good impression is a must的句子结构很完整，所以使用关系副词在句中做状语，同时也引导起这个定语从句。AC两项都是关系代词在句中不能做状语，when的先行词通常都是指时间的名词。故选项D正确。

The lecture ________, a lively question-and-answer session followed.

D．having been given

答案：

D

解析过程：

句意：他的演讲结束后，将是一个现场问答部分。a lively question-and-answer session followed 是一个完整的句子，本题的两部分之间缺少连词，所以逗号前面的不能是句子，只能是一个独立主格结构。名词his lecture与动词give之间构成被动关系，所以使用过去分词表示被动，排除B项。A项表示正在进行，C项不定式表示将要进行。都符合语义，D项having been done 在做状语的时候相当于done。本句的独立主格结构His lecture having been given相当于After his lecture had been given。故D正确。

题目：

Never before had a Kitchen so much of a History

It tells of Freedom, Success, and of the Architecture of big American cities. Because that is where it started: in the second half of the 19th century!

Welcome to a new Era of Kitchen Interior Design

Back then, a Generation of successful American Entrepreneurs dreamt of a new style of Architecture to express their personal wealth. This dream was realized by young architects such as Daniel Burnham and Stanford White. They all had studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris.

And they created a new style for Architecture and Interior Design, named after the famous Art Institute: Beaux-Arts.

SieMatic Beaux Arts Breaks and Creates

In fact it was not a new style at all, but a composition of styles from different periods and cultures. Many world-famous structures such as the Chicago Art Institute and the Statue of Liberty account for it. But what does that have to do with your kitchen? Just as much as you want it to. Because in the same way that the anti-conventional architects back then took the freedom to combine elements from different historical eras, today, you too can break the conventional rules of styles and create something new: your own personal composition of your kitchen. For that, SieMatic Beaux Arts offers unique opportunities: A broad range of seemingly conflicting features that you combine to a harmonious design of your own. You can choose from menu of various forms, appealing colors, and precious materials, to create an environment that is much more than just a kitchen: a reflection of your personality.

1．Why did the BeauxArts style attract American entrepreneurs?

A．It helped display their money status

B．It was created by famous architects

C．It was named after a famous institute

D．It represented the 19th century urban culture

2．What is unique of SieMatic BeauxArts?

A．Its designs are anti-conventional.

B．Its designs come from famous structures.

C．Its customers can enjoy their own composition.

D．Its customers can choose from various new styles.

答案：

1．A

2．C

解析过程：

1.

根据第二段中”Back then, a Generation of successful American Entrepreneurs dreamt of a new style of Architecture to express their personal wealth”一代成功的美国企业家渴望一种新的建筑可以展现他们的个人财富。故选项A正确。

根据第三段中you too can break the conventional rules of style and create something new: your own personal composition of your kitchen. For that, SieMatic BeauxArts offers unique opportunities: A broad range of seemingly conflicting features that you combine to a harmonious design of your own.你也可以打破传统的类型,来创造新的东西,你个人的厨房.可知SieMatic BeauxArts让顾客有机会显示自己的构思。故选项C正确。

题目：

However wealthy we may be, we can never find enough hours in the day to do everything we want. Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost, which simply refers to whether someone’s time or money could be better spent on something else.

Every hour of our time has a value. For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another, or be sleeping or watching a film. Each of these options has a different opportunity cost—namely, what they cost us in missed opportunities.

Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium. Why not, you might reason, watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends? This—the alternative use of your cash and time—is the opportunity cost.

For economists, every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgo—in terms of money and enjoyment—in order to take it up. By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on, you ought to be able to make better-informed, more reasonable decisions. Consider that most famous economic rule of all: there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free, the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.

Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging: imagine spending your entire life calculating whether your time would be better spent elsewhere doing something more profitable or enjoyable. Yet, in a sense it’s human nature to do precisely that—we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.

In the business world, a popular phrase is “value for money.” People want their cash to go as far as possible. However, another is fast obt aining an advantage: “value

devote to something, so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time. By reading this passage you are giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities, such as sleeping and eating. In return, however, this passage will help you to think like an economist, closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions.

1．According to the passage, the c oncept of “opportunity cost” is applied to ________.

A．making more money

B．taking more opportunities

C．reducing missed opportunities

D．weighing the choice of opportunities

2．The “leftover ... time” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to the time ________.

A．spared for watching the match at home

B．taken to have dinner with friends

C．spent on the way to and from the match

D．saved from not going to watch the match

3．What are forgone opportunities?

A．Opportunities you forget in decision-making

B．Opportunities you give up for better ones

C．Opportunities you miss accidentally

D．Opportunities you make up for

答案：

1．D

2．C

3．B

解析过程：

1.

根据第一段中“Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost, which simply refers to whether someone’s time or money could be better spent on something else.”是指人们思考自己的时间金钱是否可以更好地被利用在其他的事情上。也就是在衡量自己的选择是否合理。故答案选D。

考点定位：考查细节理解

2.

根据文章第三段Why not, you might reason, watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends?人们本来是想去看球赛，但是球赛的票太贵了。所以就不去现场看球了。从而省下了“take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium.”这部分时间，并且把买票的钱和来去体育馆的时间用在了别的地方，那么这里的leftover money and time就是指看球赛来回所花费的时间。

考点定位：考查猜测词义

3.

根据文章第三段Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free, the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.即使有人带你去享受免费的午餐，在这种情况下，你吃饭的时间还是会让你失去某些东西。这是从forgone

opportunities的角度来说的，也就是说你还可以用这段时间做更有价值，更有意义的事情，但是你却把他用来享用这段免费的午餐。所以forgone opportunities就是指放弃的机会。故选项B正确。

题目：

Most damagingly, anger weakens a person’s ability to think clearly and keep control over his behaviour. The angry person loses objectivity in evaluating the emotional significance of the person or situation that arouses his anger.

Not everyone experiences anger in the same way; what angers one person may amuse another. The specific expression of anger also differs from person to person based on biological and cultural forces. In contemporary culture, physical expressions of anger are generally considered too socially harmful to be tolerated. We no longer regard duels (决斗) as an appropriate expression of anger resulting from one person’s awareness of insulting behaviour on the part of another.

Anger can be identified in the brain, where the electrical activity changes. Under most conditions EEG (脑电图) measures of electrical activity show balanced activity between the right and left prefrontal (额叶前部) areas. Behaviourally this corresponds to the general even-handed disposition (意向) that most of us possess most of the time. But when we are angry the EEG of the right and left prefrontal areas aren’t balanced and, as a result of this, we’re likely to react. And our behavioural response to anger is different from our response to other emotions, whether positive or negative.

Most positive emotions are associated with approach behaviour: we move closer to people we like. Most negative emotions, in contrast, are associated with avoidance behaviour: we move away from people and things that we dislike or that make us anxious. But anger is an exception to this pattern. The angrier we are, the more likely we are to move towards the object of our anger. This corresponds to what psychologists refer to as of offensive anger: the angry person moves closer in order to influence and control the person or situation causing his anger. This approach-and-confront behaviour is accompanied by a leftward prefrontal asymmetry (不对称) of EEG activity. Interestingly, this asymmetry lessens if the angry person can experience empathy (同感) towards the individual who is bringing forth the angry response. In defensive anger, in contrast, the EEG asymmetry is directed to the right and the angry person feels helpless in the face of the anger-inspiring situation. 1．The “duels” example in Paragraph 2 proves that the expression of anger ________.

A．usually has a biological basis

B．varies among people

C．is socially and culturally shaped

D．influences one’s thinking and evaluation

2．What changes can be found in an angry brain?

A．Balanced electrical activity can be spotted.

B．Unbalanced patterns are found in prefrontal areas.

C．Electrical activity corresponds to one’s behaviour.

3．Which of the following is typical of offensive anger?

A．Approaching the source of anger.

B．Trying to control what is disliked.

C．Moving away from what is disliked

D．Feeling helpless in the face of anger.

4．What is the key message of the last paragraph?

A．How anger differs from other emotions.

B．How anger relates to other emotions.

C．Behavioural responses to anger.

D．Behavioural patterns of anger.

答案：

1．C

2．B

3．A

4．D

解析过程：

1.

根据第二段中“The specific expression of anger also differs from person to person based on biological and cultural forces.”可知由于人们生理的和文化的不同，人们对于生气的表达也有所不同，接下来进行了具体解释。在现代因为生气，而进行身体上的冲突是不能忍受的，然而在古代，决斗是可以被接受的。综上，故答案选C。

考点定位：考查推理判断

2.

根据第三段3,4行“But when we are angry the EEG of the right and left prefrontal areas aren't balanced”可知当我们生气的时候，脑电图在额叶前部会出现不平衡的现象。故选项B正确。考点定位：考查细节理解

3.

根据文章第四段3,4,5行“The angrier we are，the more likely we are to move towards the object of our anger. This corresponds to what psychologists refer to as offensive anger: the angry person moves closer in order to influence and control the person or situation causing his anger.”可知当我们生气的时候，我们很可能靠近让我们生气的对象，从而去影响和控制使我们生气的人和情景。这是典型的offensive anger的表现。故A正确。

考点定位：考查细节理解

4.

根据本段“Most positive emotions are associated with approach behavior”及“Most negative emotions, in contrast, are associated with avoidance behavior”可知本段主要讲了“approach behavior”和“avoidance behavior”这两种不同的行为模式。故答案选D。

题目：

August 1990，Boston

Dear Maya Shao-ming,

your father cried, "A girl!" You are more than just a second child, more than just a girl to match our boy. You, little daughter, are the link to our female line, the legacy of another woman's pain and sacrifice 31 years ago.

Let me tell you about your Chinese grandmother. Somewhere in Hong Kong, in the late fifties, a young waitress found herself pregnant (怀孕) by a cook, probably a co-worker at her restaurant. She carried the baby to term, suffered to give it birth, and kept the little girl for the first three months of her life. I like to think that my mother—your randmother—loved me and fought to raise me on her own, but that the daily struggle was too hard. Worn down by the demands of the new baby and perhaps the constant threat of starvation, she made the painful decision to give away her girl so that both of us might have a chance for a better life.

More likely, I was dropped at the orphanage (M JLR) steps or somewhere else. I will probably never know the truth. Having a baby in her unmarried state would have brought shame on the family in China, so she probably kept my existence a secret. Once I was out of her life, it was as if I had never been born. And so you and your brother and I are the missing leaves on a family tree.

Do they ever wonder if we exist?

Before I was two, I was adopted by an Anglo couple. Fed three square meals a day, I grew like a wild weed and grasped all the opportunities they had to offer—books, music, education, church life and community activities. In a family of blue-eyed blonds, though, I stood out like a sore thumb. Whether from jealousy or fear of someone who looked so different, my older brothers sometimes teased me about my unpleasing skin, or made fun of my clumsy walk. Moody and impatient, burdened by fears that none of us realized resulted from my early years of need, I was not an easy child to love. My mother and I conflicted countless times over the years, but gradually came to see one another as real human beings with faults and talents, and as women of strength in our own right. Lacking a mirror image in the mother who raised me, I had to seek my identity as a woman on my own. The Asian American community has helped me regain my double identity.

But part of me will always be missing: my beginnings, my personal history, all the delicate details that give a person her origin. Nevertheless, someone gave me a lucky name "Siu Wai." "Siu" means "little," and "War means "clever." Therefore, my baby name was "Clever little one." Who chose those words? Who cared enough to note my arrival in the world?

I lost my Chinese name for 18 years. It was Americanized for convenience to "Sue." But like an ill-fitting coat, it made me uncomfortable. I hated the name. But even more, I hated being Chinese. It took many years to become proud of my Asian origin and work up the courage to take back my birth-name. That, plus a little knowledge of classroom Cantonese, is all the Chinese culture I have to offer you. Not white, certainly, but not really Asian, I try to pave the way between the two worlds and bridge the gap for you. Your name, "Shao-ming," is very much like mine—"Shao" means "little." And "ming" is "bright," as in a shining sun or moon. Whose lives will

cradle you in your babyhood, generously giving you the loving care I lacked for my first two years. When I pat you, I comfort the lost baby inside me who still cries for her mother.

Sweet Maya, it doesn't matter what you "become" later on. You have already fulfilled my wildest dreams.

I love you,

Mommy

D．her past was spent brokenly, first in Asia, then in the US

答案：

1．D

2．B

3．D

4．A

5．C

6．B

解析过程：

1.

根据第一段2,3行“You are more than just a second child, more than just a girl to match our boy. You, little daughter, are the link to our female line”你不仅仅是我们的第二个孩子，也不仅仅是让我有儿有女，更重要的是家族里的女性传承得以延续。故选项D正确。

考点定位：考查细节理解

2.

根据第二段最后3行“Worn down by the demands of the new baby and perhaps the constant threat of starvation, she made the painful decision to give away her girl so that both of us might have a chance for a better life.”可知她的母亲把她送走可能是想要另一个孩子，可能是由于饥饿，但是将她送走，两个人都可以过幸福的生活，所以她对母亲的选择是可以接受和理解的，但是同时被母亲送走的确是一件很痛苦的事情。故选项B正确。

考点定位：考查推理判断

3.

根据本句“In a family of blue-eyed blonds, though, I stood out like a sore thumb.”家里都是蓝眼睛的白种人，而我是一个黄皮肤黑头发的中国人。Though后面这句话说明我和他们是不一样的。故D正确。

考点定位：考查句意理解

4.

根据第四段“Whether from jealousy or fear of someone who looked so different, my older brothers sometimes teased me about my unpleasing skin, or made fun of my clumsy walk.”可知在这个家庭里不知道是处于嫉妒还是恐惧我的哥哥们有时会嘲笑我。有时候也会和母亲吵架。“Lacking a mirror image in the mother who raised me, I had to seek my identity as a woman on my own. The Asian American community has helped me regain my double identity.”在母亲身上不能找到自我，进而产生了身份危机。故选项A正确。

考点定位：考查推理判断

5.

根据文章倒数第二段That, plus a little knowledge of classroom Cantonese, is all the Chinese culture I have to offer you. Not white, certainly, but not really Asian, I try to pave the way between the two worlds and bridge the gap for you. Your name, "Shao-ming," is very much like mine—"Shao" means "little." And "ming" is "bright"可知母亲想给女儿添加一些中国文化的元素，所以女儿的名字为Shao ming，让女儿知道自己的祖先有中国血统。故C正确。

考点定位：考查推理判断

6.

根据下一句“and each day I cradle you in your babyhood, generously giving you the loving care I lacked for my first two years.”得知母亲一直在照顾着女儿，这和母亲自己的经历是不同的。母亲很小就被送走了，没有享受到母爱也不知道自己的根在哪里。故选项B项正确。

考点定位：考查句意理解

——————————

题目：

peer pressure. It is a strong influence of a group, especially of children, on members of that group to behave as everybody else does. It can be positive or negative. Most people experience it in some way during their lives.

People are social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly surprising that part of their self-respect comes from the approval of others. This instinct (天性) is why the approval of peers, or the fear of disapproval, is such a powerful force in many people’s lives. It is the same instinct that drives people to dress one way at home and another way at work, or to answer “fine” when a stranger asks “how are you?” even if it is not necessarily true. There is a practical aspect to this: it helps society to function efficiently, and encourages a general level of self-discipline that simplifies day-to-day interaction.

For certain individuals, seeking social acceptance is so important that it becomes like an addiction; in order to satisfy the desire, they may go so far as to abandon their sense of right and wrong. Teens and young adults may feel forced to use drugs, or join gangs that encourage criminal behavior. Mature adults may sometimes feel pressured to cover up illegal activity at the company where they work, or end up in debt because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they can’t afford in an effort to “keep up with the Joneses.”

However, peer pressure is not always negative. A student whose friends are good at academics may be urged to study harder and get good grades. Players on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win. This type of influence can also get a friend off drugs, or to help an adult take up a good habit or drop a bad one. Study groups and class projects are examples of positive peer groups that encourage people to better themselves.

Schools try to teach kids about the dangers of negative peer pressure. They teach kids to stand up and be themselves, and encourage them to politely decline to do things that they believe are wrong. Similarly, it can be helpful to encourage children to greet the beneficial influence of positive peer groups.

答案：

1．feeling

2．influences

3．practical

4．unconsciously

5．individuals

6．moral

7．spirit

8．habits

9．independent

10．no

解析过程：

1. 根据文章第一段The expression, “everybody’s doing it,” is very much at the center of the concept of peer pressure. Peer pressure（同龄人压力）是说Peer pressure会让我们有一种强烈的感觉要做和同龄人一样的事情，所以feeling正确。

2. 根据第一段2,3行”It is a strong influence of a group, especially of children, on members of that group to behave as everybody else does. It can be positive or negative.”可知Peer pressure对团队里的每个人都会有影响，这种影响可能是积极的，也可能是消极的。本句中的influences 与前面的works是并列结构。

3. 根据文章第二段第五行There is a practical aspect to this可知peer pressure会产生很多现实的影响，这些影响都是实际存在的。

4. 根据文章第三段可知不管是青少年年轻人还是成年人都在不知不觉中受到同龄人的影响。故使用unconsciously表示无意识地。

5. 根据第三段第一行“For certain individuals”可知同龄人的压力对个体会产生很大的影响。

6. 根据文章第三段2,3,4行“in order to satisfy the desire, they may go so far as to abandon their sense of right and wrong. Teens and young adults may feel forced to use drugs, or join gangs that encourage criminal behavior. ”可知同龄人的压力会让人丧失道德准则，不辨是非，甚至违法犯罪。本句中的moral指道德的。

7. 根据第四段2,3行”Pl ayers on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win. ”可知同龄人的压力也有积极的影响，为了帮助自己所在的队伍获胜，他们会养成团队合作精神。故使用名词spirit。

8. 根据第四段3,4行”This type of influence can also get a friend off drugs, or to help an adult take up a good habit or dr op a bad one. ”可知peer pressure可以帮助人们养成好的习惯并抛弃一些不好的习惯。

9. 根据文章最后一段”They teach kids to stand up and be themselves”可知要教会孩子独立，并做真正的自己。

10. 根据最后一段”encourage them to politely decline to do things that they believe are wrong. ”可知要鼓励孩子拒绝去做一些他们认为错误的事情。句中的decline拒绝转换成say no to。——————————

题目：

请阅读下面短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150 词左右的文章。

When we read newspapers, we often come across such English words as “AIDS” and “PK.” When we watch TV, we frequently hear words like “NBA” or “PM2.5.” When we speak, we automatically use words lik e “OUT” or “Bye-bye.” English words and expressions like these are getting popular. They have already become part of our daily language. And 239 English words have been included in the latest Dictionary of Contemporary Chinese.

The inclusion has started a heated discussion. A group of scholars signed a letter of complaint over the inclusion of these English words, which, they think, goes against Chinese language policies. They not only worry that Chinese is borrowing an increasing number of English words but are also concerned that the inclusion may hurt the dignity of the Chinese language. However, others are in favor of the inclusion because it is hard to say whether it will threaten the Chinese language. They believe the selection is mostly a result of their function and use in daily life.

2014江苏高考英语卷答案解析（单选部分） 21.Lessons can be learned to face the future, history cannot be changed. A.though B. as C. since D. unless 21.A. 本题考察连词用法。根据句意结合常识来判断，A选项更合理：“尽管历史无法改变，教训却能够被吸取来面对未来。”B选项也有尽管的意思，但用于“n/adj/adv+as+主谓”结构中。C选项是最大干扰项，“既然，由于”。似乎说得通，但是题干前后两句并非因果关系。D选项相当于if not. 22.The book has helped me greatly in my daily communication, especially at work a good impression is a must. A. which B.when C.as D. where 22. D. 本题考察定语从句关系词的用法。其解题的突破口是先行词的判断及句子成分的分析。本题先行词为work，可以理解为抽象的地点；而从句部分不缺主语也不缺宾语，因此可以排除关系代词，而选择可以做状语的关系副词where. 句意为“这本书在日常交际中给予我很大的帮助，尤其是在第一印象至关重要的工作中。” 23.---How much do you know about the Youth Olympic Games to be held in Nanjing? --- Well, the media it in a variety of forms. A.cover B. will cover C.have covered D.covered 23. C. 本题考察时态的用法。“你了解将在南京举行的青奥会么？”“各大媒体已进行了全方位的报道。” 24.Tom always goes jogging in the morning and he usually does push-ups too to stay .

A. chased B. registered C. offered D. compensate 25.A. 本题考察动词词汇量。A.追逐，追求。B.注册，登记。C.提供，常接双宾语。D.赔偿，补偿。根据句意可知，高才生受到各大公司的青睐，成为争相录用的对象。 26.---What a mess!
