第一篇 A Life with Birds

For nearly 17 years David Cope has worked as one of the Tower of London's yeoman warders(伦敦塔看守), _ better（更…） known to tourists as beefeaters. David, 64, lives in a three-bedroomed flat right at the top（顶部） of the Byward Tower, one of the gatehouses. " From（从） our bedroom we have a marvelous(a.奇妙的，不可思议的) view of Tower Bridge and the Thames, " says David.

The Tower of London is famous for（以..而著名） its ravens(n.乌鸦，黑色的鸟), the large black birds which have lived there for over three centuries. David was immediately fascinated(着迷，吸引) by the birds and when he was _ offered(提供)__ the post of Raven Master eight years ago he had no _ hesitation（犹豫）_ in accepting it. "The birds have now become my life and I'm always _ aware（意识到） of the fact that I am _ maintaining （保持）_ a tradition. The legend(传奇，传说) says that if the ravens leave the Tower, England will fall to enemies, and it's my job to _ make （确保） sure this doesn't happen!"

David devotes（献身于） about four hours a day to the care of the ravens. He has grown to love them and the _ fact（事实） that he lives right next to them is ideal. "I can keep（关注） a close eye on them all the time, and not just when I'm working." At first（起初）, David's wife Mo was not _keen（对..感兴趣） on the idea of life in the Tower, but she too will be sad to leave when he retires next year. "When we look out of our windows, we see history all（所有） around us, and we are taking it in and storing it up for our future memories."

第一篇有鸟陪伴的生活

作为伦敦塔的守卫者之一的David Cope在那里工作了近17年，被游客们称为Beefeaters。David，64岁，生活在Byward塔顶部的一个三居室的单元里，一个警卫室。David说：“从我们的卧室看去，我们可以看到伦敦塔桥和泰晤士河的一个美好景色。

伦敦塔以大黑色的鸟----乌鸦而著名，它们已经在那里生活了三个多世纪。David立刻被这种鸟迷住了，当他在八年前被提供乌鸦主人的职位时他毫不犹豫地接受了它。“这种鸟类现在已成为我的生命，我总是警觉到我在保持一个传统。传说中说，如果乌鸦离开了伦敦塔，英国将落到敌人的手中，我的工作就是确保这种情况不会发生！

David每天大约用四个小时的时间来护理乌鸦。他已经爱上了它们，而他紧挨在它们的旁边生活是最佳选择。“我可以在所有的时间内密切关注它们，不仅仅是在工作的时候。”起初，David的妻子Mo对生活在塔里的想法并不热衷，但David明年即将退休，她要离开时也会很伤心。“当我们透过我们的窗口向外看，我们看到历史环绕在我们身边，我们正接受它并为我们未来的记忆存储它。”

答案与题解：

1. B 根据上下文，这里应选择比较级，所以排除D，再根据句意，为“更为人所熟知”，因而better是正确答案。

2. D 根据句意，词组搭配 at the top of ，表示在……顶部最为合适。Height 意为“高度“，summit 意为“最高点”，peak 意为“顶峰“，所以选 D。

3. C 根据句意，从卧室的角度看去，from 最为恰当。

4. A 固定搭配 be famous for 意为“以……而著名”，文中要表达的是伦敦塔以乌鸦而著名，因而 for 为正确答案。

5. D 根据句意，David 是被提供了这样一个职位，所以 offered 最为恰当award 表示“授予”，applied 表示“应用” ，presented 表示“给予，呈现“，均不符合句意。

6. C 根据上下文，很容易理解 David 是这么迷恋这种黑鸟，因而毫不犹豫地接受了这个职位，所以 hesitation 为正确答案。

7. A be aware of 表示“意识到”，有这样一命警觉。其他三项均不符合句意。

8. B 固定搭配 maintain a tradition ，保持一个传统，maintain 最为恰当。hold 表示“抓住”，survive 表示“存活，幸存”，last 表示“维持”。

10. A 根据句意，David 每天大约用四个小时来护理乌鸦，表达出对乌鸦的爱护之情，devote “献身于……，专用于……”最为恰当。spend 后需加动词 ing 形式。pass 表示“经过”， provide 表示“提供”，均不符合句意。

11. D 这是一个定语从句，根据句意，David 已经爱上了它们，而他正居住在它们旁边(这样一个事实)是理想的，所以 fact 是正确答案。

12. C keep an eye on 为固定搭配，意为“注意，关注”，所以选 C。

13. C 根据句意，作者要表达的意思是起初，David 的妻子 Mo 并不感兴趣，因为只有词组 at first 表示“起初，开始时”符合句意。

14. B be keen on 为固定搭配，表示“对……感兴趣，对……热衷”，interest 后面配介词 in ，fond后应配介词 of ，因此正确答案是 B。

15. B 根据句意，作者表达的感情非常强烈，过去的那些都环绕在身边，所以 all 为最佳答案。

第二篇 A Lucky Break

Actor Antonio Banderas is used to breaking bones, and it always seems to happen when he's doing(做) sport. In the film Play It to the Bone he plays（扮演一个…）the part of a middleweight(n.中量级拳击手) boxer alongside Woody Harrelson. During （过程中） the making of the film Harrelson kept（连续） complaining that the fight scenes（场面） weren't very convincing(a.有说服力的，令人信服的), so one day he

suggested that he and Banderas should have a fight for real. The Spanish actor wasn't keen（对…热衷） on the idea at first, but he was eventually（最终） persuaded by his co-star to put on his gloves and climb into the boxing ring(拳赛场地). However, when he realized how seriously(认真地) his opponent（对手） was taking it all, he began to regret his decision to fight. And then in the third round, Harrelson hit Banderas so（太…以至于..） hard in the face that he actually broke his nose. His wife, actress Melanie Griffith, was furious(a.暴怒的，强烈的) that he had been playing "silly macho(a.雄壮的，男子气概的) games". "She was right," confesses(v.承认，坦白) Banderas, "and I was a fool to take（冒险） a risk like that in the middle of a movie."

He was reminded（提醒） of the time he broke his leg during a football match in his native Malaga. He had always dreamed（梦想） of becoming a soccer star, of performing in front of a big crowd, but doctors told him his playing days were probably over. "That's when I decided to take up（开始） acting; I saw it as another（另外） way of performing, and achieving recognition. What happened to me on that football pitch （场） was, you might say, my first lucky break."

第二篇幸运的骨折

演员Antonio Banderas经常骨折，而且它似乎总是发生在运动时。在影片《拳拳到骨》中，他与Woody Harrelson肩，扮演一个中量级拳击手。在影片制作过程中，Harrelson不停地抱怨整个打斗场面并不是很令人信服，所以一天，他提议他和Banderas应该进行一场真正的打斗。这位西班牙演员起初到这一想法并不热衷，但最终还是被他的搭档说服了，他戴上他的手套，爬上了拳击台。然而，当他意识到他的对手是全心全意投入进来时，他开始后悔自己要打斗的决定。在第三轮，Harrelson狠狠地打在Banderas的脸上，以至于居然打破了Banderas的鼻子。女演员Melanie Griffith他的妻子对他进行这样一场“傻男子气概的游戏”非常愤怒。“她是对的”Banderas承认道，“我在电影拍摄过程中进行这样一个冒险真是一个傻瓜。”

他记起在他的故乡马拉加进行的一场足球比赛，那次他的腿骨折了。他一直梦想成为一个足球明星，在众多观众前比赛。但他的医学告诉他，他的比赛生涯也许就要结束了。“就在那时我决定开始演戏，我认为这是另外一种比赛并且能够得到认可。可以这么说，发生在那次足球场上的事对我而言，是一次幸运的骨折。

15. A) match B) pitch C) court D) course

答案与题解:

1. C 根据句意，每次骨折似乎总是发生在做运动时，应当选用动词 do 0 practise 表示“练习”，后面应跟某一项具体的训练，而不是 sport，所以正确答案为 C。

2. A play the part of ...为固定搭配，意为“扮演一个......的角色”，其他三项均不合适。

3. D 联系上下文，根据句意，在影片制作过程中，所以应当用 during。

4. A 根据句意，Harrelson 在影片制作过程中不断地抱怨，而且后面的动词complain 用的是ing 形式，因此动词 keep“连续，不断”最为恰当。continue 后加动词 ing 形式一般表示在停顿后重新开始、继续，carry 一般后面跟介词on ，表示“进行某项事务”，insist 表示“坚决主张”，不合句意，所以选 A。

5. C 联系上下文，因为是影片中的打斗场景，所以这里 scene 是正确答案。

6. B be keen on 为固定搭配，表示“对……感兴趣，对......热衷”，interest 后面配介词 in ，enthusiastic 后面配介词 of。

7. B 联系上下文，作者要表达的是最终他还是被他的搭档说服了，副词eventually 放在动词 persuade 之前，lastly 表示“最后一点，最后”，“at the end”一般放在段落的最后，表示最后怎么样。

8. C 根据句意，"当他意识到……是全心全意投人进来时，他开始后悔自己要打斗的决定"，显然是对手非常认真的对待这场打斗，所以 opponent 是正确答案。

9. D so... that ...固定搭配，太……以至于，根据句意，“Harrelson 如此狠地打在Banderas 的脸上，以至于居然打破了 Banderas 的鼻子”，其他选项都不适合。

10. A 固定搭配 take a risk ，表示“冒险”。

11. B 联系上下文，根据句意，"他记起在他的故乡马拉加进行的一场足球比赛"，是因为鼻子骨折这件事促使他想起了故乡的那次比赛，remind 表示“提醒”，符合句意。remember 表示“自然想起，记起”不合句意。

12. C 根据句意和后面的介词of ，显然，“他一直梦想成为一个足球明星”，dream 是正确答案。 pretend 表示“假装”，后面眼介词 to，不合句意;look forward 表示叫“向往”，后面跟介词1 0 ，不合句意。

13. A 固定搭配 take up sth. ，表示“开始从事某事”，根据句意，作者要表达的

是“我决定开始演戏”，因此 up 是正确答案。

14. D 联系上下文，作者显然把它看成是另外一种比赛，所以只有 another 符合句意。

15. B 词组 football pitch，表示"足球场"。前面由介词 on 引导，后面一定是场地，也就是足球场，而不是 match“比赛”。court 表示“网球场”，course 表示“跑道”，均不符合句意。

第三篇 Global Warming 全球变暖

Few people now question the reality of global warming and its effects on the world's climate(n.气候，风气). Many scientists put（把…归咎于） the blame for recent natural disasters on the increase in（在） the world's temperatures and are convinced that, more than ever(任何时候) before, the Earth is at risk(危险) from the forces(暴力) of the wind, rain and sun. According(据说) to them, global warming is making extreme(极端的) weather events, such(例如) as hurricanes(n. 飓风，暴风) and droughts(n.干旱，早灾), even more severe(严重) and causing sea levels all around the world to rise(上升) .

Environmental groups are putting pressure(压力) on governments to take action to reduce the amount(数量) of carbon dioxide(n.二氧化碳) which is given off(排放) by factories and power plants, thus attacking(攻击) the problem at its source. They are in favour(赞成) of more money being spent on research into solar(a.太阳的n.太阳能), wind and wave energy devices, which could then replace existing power stations(装置) .

Some scientists, however(然而) believe that even if we stopped releasing carbon dioxide and other gases into the atmosphere(n.大气) tomorrow, we would have to wait several(几) hundred years to notice the results. Global warming, it seems, is here to stay(停留).

第三篇全球变暖

现在很少有人质疑全球变暖的现实及其对世界气候的影响。许多科学家把全球气温上升归咎于最近的自然灾害，他们确信，地球现在比以住任何时候都更受到风、雨和太阳这些力量的威胁。据他们说，全球变暖制造了极端的天气事件，例如飓风、干旱，甚至更为严重的以至于世界各地的海平面上升。

环保团体对政府施加压力，要求政府采取行动减少工厂和发电厂排放的二氧化碳，攻击它的资源问题。他们都赞成把更多的资金用到研发太阳能、风能和波浪能装置上，以取代现有的发电站。

然而，还有一些科学家，他们相信即使明天我们不再排放二氧化碳和其他气体到大气层中，我们也将不得不等待几百年才能得到结果。全球变暖似乎要在这里停留。

词汇:

climate /'klaimit/ n. 气候,风气

hurricane n. 飓风,暴风

drought n. 干旱,旱灾

carbon dioxide n. 二氧化碳

solar 太阳的 n.

atmosphere 大气

5. A) Concerning B) Regarding C) Depending D) According

6. A) such B) just C) even D) well

12.A) belief B) request C) favour D) suggestion

& Iacute;3.A) factories B) generations C) houses D) stations

14.A) but B) although C) despite D) however

15.A) several B) over C) numerous D) various

答案与题解:

1. B 固定搭配 put the blame for ... ，表示“把……归咎于……”，所以 put 为正确答案。

2. A 介词搭配，文中“the world's temperatures”前需要补充一个介词，表达在全球范围内气温的上升，因此应该在 A 和 B 之间选择。而 at 后面只可以眼某个小地点，根据文意，只有 in 才是正确答案。

3. D 联系上下文，根据句意，显然作者要表达的是“以往任何时候”，因此选用 ever。其他三项均不符合句意。

4. C 固定搭配 at risk ，表达“濒临危险，处境危险”。

5. D 习惯用法 according to sb. 表示“据某某所说”，显然选择 D。

6. A 根据句意，作者要举例子，习惯用法即为 such as ... ，因此选 A。

7. B 根据句意，作者举例子是按照递进的顺序，从飓风、干早到排在后面的是更加严重的问题。strict 表示“严格的”，strong 表示“强烈的”，heavy 表示“沉重的，巨大的”，只有 severe 表示“严峻的，严重的”，因此 B 是正确答案。

8. C 根据句意，导致世界各地的海平面上升，所以在 A 和 C 之间选择。raise 表示"举起，抬起，唤起"，有主动意味，rise 表示客观的上升，因此是正确答案。

9. B 联系上下文，根据句意，根据选项，很容易理解是给政府施加压力，显然 pressure 最为恰当。

10. A 根据句意，减少二氧化碳的排放量，二氧化碳是不可数名词，因此 amount 是正确答案。

ll. A 固定搭配，give off 表示"排放(气体、液体、光)等"，文中表达的是排放二氧化碳气体，显然选 A。而 give away 表示“泄露，分发” ，give up 表示"放弃" ，give over 表示“停止，交出”。

12. C 固定搭配 in favour of ... ，表示“支持……，赞成……”，所以选 C。

13. D 根据句意，作者表达的是"发电站"，为固定词组 power station。

14. D 联系上下文，上文说的是很多科学家的想法，下文转而言另外还有一些科学家的想法，有转折之意，且空格在两句未完的话之间，因此惯用法选择 however。

15. A 根据句意，还需要等几百年，several 表示"几个"，符合句意。其他三个选项均不合适。

第四篇 A Success Story

At 19, Ben Way is already a millionaire, and one of a growing number of teenagers who have made(制造) their fortune(财富) through the Internet. What(这) makes Ben's story all the more remarkable(a.卓越的，值得注意的) is that he is dyslexic(a.诵读困难的n.诵读困难者), and was told(告知) by teachers at his junior school that he would never be able to read or write properly(正确地) .

When he was eight, his local authorities(n.权威，权力，当权) provided(提供) him with a PC to help with school work. Although he was unable(不能) to read the manuals, he had a natural ability with the computer, and encouraged(鼓励) by his father, he soon began charging(收费) people $l0 an hour for his knowledge and skills. At the age of 15 he set(创建) up his own computer consultancy(n.咨询公司，顾问工作), Quad Computer, which he ran from his bedroom, and two years later he left school to devote(精力) all his time to business.

"By this time the company had grown and I needed to take on a couple(一些) of employees to help me", says Ben. "That enabled me to start doing(做) business with bigger companies.” It was his ability to consistently(始终如一的) overcome(克服) difficult challenges that led him to win the Young Entrepreneur(n.企业家，主办者) of the Year award in the same year that he formed Waysearch, and he has recently signed a deal worth(价值) $25 million with a private investment(n.投资，投入) company, which will finance(为…供给资金) his search engine.

第四篇一个成功的故事

19岁时，Ben Way已经是一个百万富翁了，他是越来越多的通过互联网获得财富的青少年之一。而使得Ben的故事更引人注意的是他有诵读困难，并且曾被他的初中教师告知他将永远不能正确读写。“我要证明他们错了。“Ben说。他后来成为Waysearch的创建者和董事长，Waysearch是一个在网上购物商场查找货物的网络搜索引擎。

Ben八岁时，他所在的地方当局提供给他一台个人电脑以帮助学校工作。虽然他不能阅读使用指南，但他对计算机有一种天赋，在父亲的鼓劢下，Ben很快就开始以自己的知识能力收费----每小时10英镑。15岁时，Ben成立了自己的电脑顾问公司----夸德电脑，他在自己的卧室里运营（这个公司），两年之后，他离开了学校，并将所有的精力投入到公司经营当中。

“此时公司已经发展壮大，我需要雇用几个员工帮助我”，Ben说，“这使我开始与更大的公司做生意。”正是他持续不断地克服困难挑战的能力使他赢得了“年度最佳青年企业家”，也是同年，他成立了Waysearch。最近，他与一家私人投资公司签署了价值2500万英镑的交易，这家公司为他的搜索引擎提供资金。

14. A) overcome B) overlook C) overtake D) overdo

15. A) valuable B) estimated C) priced D) worth

答案与题解：

1. B 固定搭配make fortune，意为“制造财富，发财”，因此选 B.其他三项均不合适。

2. D 这里应该是一个由 what 引导的从句为主语的句子，表示“使得 Ben 的故事更引人注意的是……”，其他三项均无法引导该从句。

3. B 根据句意，是 Ben 被告知，因此选项 told 为E确答案。said 意为“被说”，suggested 意为“被建议”，reported 意为“被报道”，均不合句意。

4. C 联系上下文，了解到本句表达的是 Ben 曾被他的初中教师告知他将永远不能正确读写，而不是完全无法读写，因此 properly 才符合句意。absolutely 表示“完全地，绝对地”，totally 表示“完全地”，thoroughly 表示“彻底地，完全地”，均不合句意。

5. A 根据句意，很容易了解 Ben 是要证明他们对他的判断错了，而不是说他们的判断

是假的、不真实的，或者不公平的，所以 wrong 是正确答案。

6. A 根据动词前的主语 local authorities 和后面的介词 with 可以知道他是被提供了一台个人电脑，所以选项 provide 为正确答案。如用 give 则不需跟介词 with，如用offer 则需跟 to，如用 get 则需前面的主语是 Ben.

7. D 根据句意，易知文中耍表达的是"虽然他不能阅读使用指南"，因此 unable 为正确答案。impossible 表示“不可能的”，incapable 表示“元能力的”，-般形容不能胜任的；disabled 表示“有残缺的”。

8. C 根据句意，易知文中要表达的是在爸爸的鼓励下。若用 promised 则表示在爸爸的承诺下，il1-vited 则是在爸爸的邀请下，animated 表示"有生气的"，均不符合句意，因此 encouraged 为正确答案。

9. B 根据句意，“Ben 很快就开始以自己的知识和能力收费一二每小时10英镑"，只有charge符合句意。

10. D 联系上下文，根据句意，Ben 创建了自己的公司一-Quad Computer，固定搭配 set up 表示“创建”，其他三项均不合适，所以选 D.

11. C 根据句意，Ben 把所有的精力投入到公司经营当中，根据后面的介词 to.可知，只有devote 是正确答案。

12. A 词组搭配 a couple of 表示“一些”，few 一般形容只需少量的几个，little 形容不可数名词，文中要表达的是公司已经发展壮大，Ben 需要雇用一些员工，因此只有couple 符合句意。

13. B 根据句意，Ben 开始与更大的公司做生意，固定搭配 do business with ...符合句意。其他三项均不合适。

14. A 固定搭配 overcome challenge，表示“克服困难，克服挑战”，因此选 A.overlook 表示“不注意，忽视”，overtake 表示“赶上”，overtake 表示“把……做得过分”。

15. D 根据句意，"“价值2500万英镑的交易”，显然 worth 是正确答案。valuable 表示“珍贵的，值钱的”，estimated 表示“估计，预算”，priced 表示“给……定价，附有定价的”。

第五篇 Traffic in Our Cities

The volume of traffic in many cities in the world today continues to expand. This causes many problems, including serious air pollution, lengthy(a.漫长的，冗长的) delays, and the greater risk of（..的风险） accidents. Clearly, something must be done, but it is often difficult to persuade(说服) people to change their habits and leave their cars at home.

One possible approach(方法) is to make it more expensive for people to use their cars by increasing(增加) charges for parking and bringing(收益) in tougher(严格的, 强硬的) fines for(因…而罚(款)) anyone who breaks(打破) the law. In addition, drivers could be required to pay for using particular routes at different times of the day. This system, known(为所熟知) as "road pricing", is already being introduced in a number(一些) of cities, using a special electronic card fixed(固定在..上) to the windscreen(n.汽车挡风玻璃) of the car.

Another way of dealing(处理) with the problem is to provide cheap parking on the outskirts(效区) of the city, and strictly control the number of vehicles allowed into the centre. Drivers and their passengers then use a special bus service for the final(最后的) stage of their journey.

Of course, the most important thing(..的事) is to provide good public transport. However, to get people to give up(放弃) the comfort of their cars, public transport must be felt to be reliable(a.可靠的，可信赖的), convenient(方便的) and comfortable, with fares(票价) kept(保持) at an acceptable level.

第五篇我们的城市交通

当今世界，许多城市的交通量在不断扩大。这导致了许多问题，包括严重的空气污染、长时间拥堵，以及交通事故发生概率的增大。显而易见，我们必须要有所行动，但往往说服人们改变他们的生活习惯，使他们把车留在家里是很困难的。

一种可行的方法是通过增加停车收费和加强违规罚款而使人们使用汽车的成本变得更加昂贵。此外，在每天的不同时间，一些特殊路段将对司机另行收费。这个被称为“道路收费”的系统被一些城市所引用，它使用一种特殊的电子卡固定在汽车的挡风玻璃上。

另一种处理这个问题的方法是在城市的郊区提供廉价的停车场，并严格控制进入城市中心的车辆数量。司机和乘客乘坐特殊巴士完成他们最后的旅程。

当然，最重要的事情还是提供良好的公共交通。然而，要让人们放弃他们汽车的舒适，公共交通必须要让人感觉可靠、便利、舒适，同时票价也要保持在一个可接受的水平。

答案与题解:

1. A 固定搭配 the risk of ，表示“??的风险”，所以 of 为正确答案。其他三项均不合适。

2. D 根据句意和动词后的介词 to ，排除选项 A 和 C，而 arrange 表示“安排，整理意思与作者要表达的“说服人们改变他们的生活习惯”不符，所以 persuade 为正确答案。

3. A 联系上下文，可知这里提出的是一个解决问题的方法，approach 表示"方法，途径"，符合句意，为正确答案。 manner 表示“方式，风俗”， custom 表示“制定的，风俗”，style 表示“风格，样式”，均不符合句意。

4. B 根据句意，这里是说要“增加停车收费”，increase 表示“增加”，符合句意，为正确答案。 enlarge 表示“扩大，增大”，grow 表示“发展”，develop 表示“发展，开发，生长”，均不符合句意。

5. C 根据句意，对那些违章的人的要加强收款，bring in 表示“作为??的收益”，为正确答案。 carry down 表示“搬下，结账，把??传下来”，put off 表示“推迟，脱掉”， take away 表示“带走，取走”，均不符合句意。

6. C 根据句意，违规的人将会被加大惩罚方度，break 表示“打破”符合句意。cross 表示“交叉”，refuse 表示“拒绝”， crack 表示“破裂”，均不符合题意。

7. D 固定搭配 known as ... ，表示“以??为(人们)所熟知”。

8. B 根据句意，“道路收费”的系统已经被一些城市所引用，a number of 表示“一些”，符合句意，为正确答案。quantity 表示“大量”，total 表示“总数”，sum 表示“合计，总数”，均不符合句意。

9. A fixed to ...表示“固定在??上”，文中是说“固定在汽车的挡风玻璃上”，所以选 A。其他三项都不符合句意。

10. C 根据句意，要求表达另一种处理这个问题的方法，deal with problem 表示“处理问题”，为正确答案。.

11. A 联系上下文，作者后边提到“城市中心”，再根据句意，可得出前面说“郊区”，只有outskirt 是正确答案。

12. D final 表示“最后的”，根据句子可知这里表示旅程的最后一段，为正确答案。 late 表示“晚的，最近的”，不符合句意; end 不可用在名词前作修饰；complete 表示“完整的”，也不符合句意。

13. B“the most important thing”为惯用语，表示“最重要的事是??”，根据句意，作者要表达的是“最重要的事情还是提供良好的公共交通”，因此 thing 为正确答案，其他三项均不合适。

14. C pass on 表“传递，继续”，throw away 表示“扔掉，丢弃”，leave out 表示“遗漏，省去”，give up 表示“放弃”。根据句意，舍弃汽车的舒适，give up 最为恰当，所以选 C。

15. B 固定搭配 keep at an acceptable level 表示保持在一个可接受的水平。其他三项均不正确。

第七篇 The Difference between Man and Computer 【人与电脑的区别】What makes people different from computer programs? What is the missing element that our theories don't yet ____1____ for? The answer is simple: People read newspaper stories for a reason: to learn more about ___2____ they are interested in. Computers, on the other hand, don't. In fact, computers don't ___3_____ have interests; there is nothing in particular that they are trying to find out when they

read. If a computer ___4____ is to be a model of story understanding, it should also read for a “purpose”.

Of course, people have several goals that do not make ___5____ to attribute to computers. One might read a restaurant guide ____6____ order to satisfy hunger or entertainment goals, or to ____7____a good place to go for a business lunch. Computers do not get hungry, and computers do not have business lunches. However, these physiological and social goals give ___8____ to several intellectual or cognitive goals. A goal to satisfy hunger gives rise to goals to find ____9____ about the name of a restaurant which ___10____ the desired type of food, how expensive the restaurant is, the location of the restaurant, etc. These are goals to ____11____ information or knowledge, what we are calling ___12____ goals. These goals can be held by computers too; a computer ___13_____“want” to find out t he location of a restaurant, and read a guide in order to do so ____14____ the same way as a person might. While such a goal would not ____15____ out of hunger in the case of the computer, it might well arise out of the “goal” to learn more about restauran ts.

文章翻译：

人与电脑的区别

是什么让人有别于电脑程序?我们的理论还没有解释的缺少的要素是什么?答案很简单：人们阅读报纸故事为了学习更多他们感兴趣的东西，而电脑不是。事实上，电脑甚至连兴趣都没有，当它们试图阅读时它们没有寻找任何特别的东西。如果一个电脑程序是理解故事模式，那它也是为了某个意图去阅读。

诚然，人类的意图若是被强加到电脑身上便没有任何意义。一个人可能会读就餐指南，只是为了解决饥饿或是有娱乐目的，也可能是为了寻找一个吃商务餐的好地方。电脑不会饿，也不吃商务餐。

然而，这些心理和社会目标会导致一些智力或者认知目标。一个想要解决饥饿的意图会促使这样的念头产生：找到一个提供我们想要的食物的餐厅，这餐厅叫什么名，价位如何，在什么位置等。我们把这些为了获取信息或者知识的目标叫做学习目标。电脑也能有这些目标；一台电脑也许“想要”寻找餐厅的方位，并且为了做得像一个人一样去阅读一个指南。虽然这样的目标就电脑来说不是产生于饥饿，但电脑很可能从这个目标去获得更多关于餐厅的信息。

15. A) arise B) rise C) consent D) derive

答案与题解：

1．C此处考查对固定搭配的掌握情况，只有account能与for搭配，意为“解释”，其他三个选项的词都是及物动词，不与介词搭配。

2．C分析全句，此处应填一个宾语从句的引导词，从句中缺少宾语，故应填what，此句意为“去了解他们所感兴趣的东西”，其他三个选项均为关系副词，不能充当从句中的宾语。3．B此处选even加强语气，“事实上，电脑甚至都没有兴趣”。

4．A computer program是常见搭配，意为“电脑程序”，其他选项与句意不符，故排除。5．B make sense是固定搭配，意思是“有道理，合理，能被理解”。整句的意思为“当然人也有目标，但这些目标若被归在电脑身上便不合逻辑了”。课件7⒉⒎零O柒零零⑻。6．C in order to是固定搭配，表示目的，意为“为了……”，故选C。

7．A结合上下文我们得知，此处应填具有“寻找”含义的词，watch没有此含义，首先被排除，C选项后若加上for，便符合文义，search有“搜寻，查找”的含义，但一般指深入彻底地调查，只有A选项find在含义和语气上都符合句意。

8．C从下一句便可找到答案为C选项，give rise to意为“引起，导致，使发生”。

9．D选择D意为“找到关于餐馆名字的信息”，其他选项放此处均不合适。

10. D此处需填一个谓语动词，因此要搞清主语“餐馆”与宾语“食物”之间的关系，只有“餐馆供应食物”合乎逻辑，故答案为serve。

11.A上文提到了种种人生理的、智力上的、认知的目标，因为饿得到了有关餐馆的信息，因而此处要填“获取”，B，C，D与文意不符。

12.B此空依然承接上文的意思，那些目标都是获取信息的目标，都是学习的目标，答案为B 选项。

13.B此处缺一个情态动词，阅读到后半句时便很容易选出答案，此处的might与后面as aperson might相呼应，表示不确定的推测，意为“可能，也许”。

14.D 能与way搭配的介词一般只有in，表示“以……方式”，此处的含义为“与一个人可能想要做事的方式相同”。

15.Aarise out of是固定搭配，意为“起于……”，即使不知道短语的含义，看到后面又出现一次arise out of，也应可以选出答案。

第八篇 Look on The Bright Side 【看光明的一面】

Do you ever wish you were more optimistic, someone who always ___1____ to be successful? Having someone around who always ____2____ the worst isn't really a lot

of ___3____. We all know someone who sees a single cloud on a sunny day and says, “It looks ___4____rain. ” But if you catch yourself thinking su ch things, it's important to do something ___5_____it.

You can change your view of life, ____6____ to psychologists. It only takes a little effort, and you'll find life more rewarding as a ___7____ . Optimism, they say, is partly about self-respect and confidence, but it's also a more positive way of looking at life and all it has to ____8___. Optimists are more ____9___ to start new projects and are generally more prepared to take risks.

Upbringing is obviously very important in forming your ___10____to the world. Some people are brought up to ____11____ too much on others and grow up forever blaming other people when anything ___12_____ wrong. Most optimists, on the ___13_____ hand, have been brought up not to ____14____ failure as the end of the world —they just ___15_____with their lives.

文章翻译：

看光明的一面

你曾经想要让自己变得更乐观吗?想过让自己变成一个总是期待成功的人吗?若是周围有个总是往事情最坏处考虑的人，我们一定没有什么乐趣——就像我们都知道某些人看到天空有一片云便说要下雨。但是你要是发现自己也这样想了，那就有必要针对它采取一些措施了。

根据心理学家的说法，人们可以改变对生活的看法。只需一点儿努力，你将发现生活会回报给你的更多。人们说乐观主义在一定程度上是自尊和自信，但它也是对待生活的和它所给予的一种积极态度。乐观主义者更有可能开始新的项目，通常也更容易准备好去承担风险。

很显然，成长经历对于你对待世界的态度的形成是至关重要的。有些人养成了过于依赖别人的习惯，一旦事情出了差错，便责备他人。然而另一方面，许多乐观主义者被教导，不要把失败当成世界末日，只需继续生活。

15. A) get up B) get on C) get out D) get over

答案与题解：

1．B看到后面的不定式，应马上想到expect，这是常见搭配，意思是“期望做某事”，放在此处也符合句意，故选B。

2．C此句大意为“若是周围有个总是往事情最坏处考虑的人，我们一定没有什么乐趣”，此处符合逻辑的只有worry和fear，但worry要与about搭配，故C为正确答案。

3．D A，B，D都有“乐趣”的意思，但口语中常和a lot of搭配的只有fun，意为“很多乐趣”。

4．D look like意为“看起来像……，看上去要……”，符合句意，为正确答案。

5．C 此句意思为“对此采取一些措施是重要的”，A与D搭配不当，直接被排除，B选项against 容易被误选，译为“采取措施来对抗它”，但此处的it是指代前面整句话，指这个状况、情况、事实D我们只能针对这个情况采取措施，不能去对抗它，C选项比较合理。原版Q_⑺⑵⑺0.零妻(○)(○)8。

6．B according to固定搭配，意为“根据……”。

7．A as a result是个惯用短语，表示结果，意为“最后，结果，最终”o整句译为“只需一点儿努力，你将发现生活会回报你更多”。

8．C此句的含义为“乐观主义也是对待生活的和它所给予的一种积极态度”。只有A与C与句意相符，但supply是不及物动词，须与介词with搭配，故C选项正确。

9．B分析上下文意思，此处乐观主义者是更容易开始新项目，be likely to是习惯用法，译成“倾向于，很有可能”，be possible to也有这样的意思，但主语一般是it，故选B。

10.B想要表示“对……的看法，意见，态度”，可以用opinion about，view of，或是attitude to／towards，根据惯用说法，B选项最为合适。

11.C 四个选项中只有depend能与on搭配，表示“依赖于……”，其他三个选项均为及物动词，因此答案是C。

12.A something goes wrong是习惯说法，意思是“出毛病，弄错，发生故障”，其他选项不能这样搭配。

13.C此处涉及的惯用说法是on the one hand…，on the other hand…，翻译成“一方面…，另一方面……”，C为正确答案。

14.A regard…as…是固定搭配，意为“把……看做……”，A为正确答案，D选项容易干扰应试者的判断，但具有“把……看做……”含义的短语应为think of…as…。

15.B本题涉及的两个固定搭配为get on with和get over with，前者意为“继续……”，为正确答案，后者意为“完成，结束，做完了事”

第九篇 The First Bicycle【第一辆自行车】

The history of the bicycle goes back more than 200 years. In 1791, Count de Sivrac ____1____ onlookers in a park in Paris as he showed off his two-wheeled invention, a machine called the celeriferé. It was basically an ____2____ version of a children's t oy which had been in ____3____ for many years. Sivrac's “celeriferé” had a wooden frame, made in the ____4____ of a horse, which was mounted on a wheel at either end1. To ride it, you sat on a small seat, just like a modem bicycle, and

pushed ____5____ against the ____6____ with your legs — there were no pedals. It was impossible to steer a celeriferé and it had no brakes, but despite these problems the invention very much ____7____ to the fashionable young men of Paris. Soon they were ___8_____ races up and down the streets.

Minor ____9____ were common as riders attempted a final burst of __10_____. Controlling the machine was difficult, as the only way to change ___11_____ was to pull up the front of the “celeriferé” and ＿____12____ it round while the front wheel was ____13____ in the air. “Celeriferés” were not popular for long, however, as the ___14_____ of no springs, no steering and rough roads made riding them very uncomfortable. Even so, th e wooden celeriferé was the ____15____of the modem bicycle.

文章翻译：

第一辆自行车

自行车的历史可以追溯到两百多年前。1791年，西夫拉克伯爵在巴黎的一个公园里向众人展示并炫耀了自己的发明，一架被称作“celeriferé”的双轮车。它主要就是一个使用了很多年的儿童玩具的扩大版。西夫拉克的“celeriferé”有一个马形状的木框，两端分别装有一个轮子。坐上一个小座位便可以骑了，就像骑现在的自行车一样，但双脚要使劲蹬地——因为没有脚踏板。操纵方向和刹车也是不太可能的，尽管有这些问题，这个发明在当时还是吸引了许多巴黎时尚的年轻人。很快他们便举行了比赛，在街上到处骑。

当骑手尝试最后冲刺时，受到一些小伤是很普遍的事情。控制那台机器是很难的，改变行驶方向的唯一方法是拉起车前身，当前轮还在空中打转时掉转车头。然而这种木制双轮车并没有流行很长时间，结合了没有弹簧、没有方向舵，以及遭遇不平整路段等问题，木制的双轮车骑起来十分不舒服。尽管如此，这种木制的“celeriferé”还是现在自行车的始祖。

13. A) cycling B) circling C) winding D) spinning

14. A) mixture B) link C) combination D) union

15. A) origin B ) design C) model D) introduction

答案与题解：

1．A根据句意，西夫拉克伯爵使公园里的观众都感到高兴，能表示“使……高兴”意思的只有A和D，而D选项overjoy意思为“使……过度兴奋，狂喜”，感情色彩过于强烈，这里应填delight“使……喜悦”。

2．D一开始发明的自行车应该是个儿童玩具的扩大版，increased“增加的”，enormous“巨大的”，extended“延伸的”均不合题意。原版Q-⑦⑵㈦(○)灵⑺(0)灵⑻。

3．A此处有三个选项都可以与in搭配，in use“在使用中”，in operation“生效，运行中”，in service“服务中”，只有in use填入此空符合逻辑，故选择A。

4．B最早的自行车是用木头支架做成马的形状，弄懂意思后答案一目了然，resemblance 意为“相似，相似物”，appearance“外貌，外观”。

5．D此处意思为“用脚使劲蹬地”，故选hard。heavily意为“沉重地，猛烈地”。

6．B 四个选项都跟“地”有点关系，surface“表面”，ground“地面，土地”，earth“泥土，陆地”，floor“地板，地面”，比较之后，只有ground比较合适。

7．B appeal to意思为“吸引”，attract本身就是及物动词“吸引”，后不需要加介词to，take to意为“开始喜欢，开始从事”。

8．C hold races在这里是“举行赛跑”的意思，其他选项不合题意。

9．C人们在最后冲刺的时候，受点小伤是很常见的。只有wound和injury有“受伤，伤害”的意思，wound做名词一般指“伤口，受伤的地方”，injury指“小伤”，为正确答案。10. D此处表示“最后猛一冲刺”，一定是速度很快，除了B选项之外的三个选项都有“速度”之意，velocity“速率，速度”，为科学用语，pace“步调，步法”，speed“速度”，是常用词，故选D。

11.A此处的意思是“改变方向”，并不是要改变路线，只有A选项符合题意。

12.C想要改变行车方向需要抬起车头在空中掉转，turn round为惯用搭配，意为“旋转，掉转”，roll和revolve本身就有“旋转”的意思，后面不需加round。

13.D这四个选项都有“转圈”的意思，cycle“循环，骑自行车”，circle“旋转，环绕移动”，wind“缠绕，上发条”，spin“自旋，纺纱”，此处主语为wheel，轮子在空中一定是“自旋”，因此选D。

14.C 四个选项都有“综合”的意思，mixture表示“混合，混合物”，link“连接，结合”，combination“结合，组合，联合”，union“联盟，联合”，全句意为“结合了没有弹簧、没有方向舵，以及遭遇不平整路段等问题，木制双轮车骑起来十分不舒服”，只有c选项的意思放在此处最恰当。

15.A综合全文大意，我们得知法国人发明的木制双轮车便是现代自行车的始祖，A选项符合题意。

第十篇 Working Mothers 【职业母亲】

Carefully conducted researches that have followed the children of working mothers have not been able to show any long-term problems, compared with children whose mothers stayed at home. My personal ____1____is that mothers should be allowed to work if they wish. Whether we like it or not, there are a ____2___of mothers who just have to work. There are those who have invested such a big part of their lives in establishing a career that they cannot ____3____ to see it lost. Then there are many who must work out of pure economic ____4____.

There are a number of options when it ___6____to choosing childcare. These range from child minders and nannies through to Granny or the kind lady ___7____ the street. ____8____, however, many parents don't have any choice; they have to accept anything they can get. Be prepared! No _____9___ how good the childcare may be, some children are going to protest wildly if they are left. This is a ___10_____normal stage of child development. Babies separate well in the first six months, but soon after that they start to get a crush on Mum and close family ____11____. Make sure that in the first week you allow ____12____time to help your child settle in.

All children are different. Some are independent, while others are more ____13____ to their mothers. Remember that if you want to ___14____ the best for your children, it’s not the quantity of time you spend with them, it's the ___15_____ that matters.

文章翻译：

职业母亲

与全职母亲的孩子相比，对职业母亲的孩子仔细进行的调查并没有展示出任何长期的问题。我的个人观点是，只要妈妈们想工作，那么她们就可以工作。不管我们是否喜欢这一点，有许多妈妈不得不工作，这是事实。有这样的母亲，她们已投入了大半生去创建事业，若是失去这份事业，她们承受不起。还有许多母亲完全是出于经济上的原因必须工作。很多母亲并不是做全职母亲的这块料，与这么可爱的婴儿在家待几个月之后，她们感觉受到了限制，被孤立了。

涉及儿童托管，有很多方式可供选择，从托儿所和保姆到奶奶或是街对面的好心女士。然而实际上，许多父母没有任何选择，不管能有什么都得接受。准备好了啊!不管你选的托管方式有多好，一些孩子被留下时，都会激烈抗议，这是儿童发展过程中完全正常的一个阶段。婴儿刚出生的前六个月对与母亲分开没有感觉，但不久之后他们便会对母亲和亲密家庭成员产生依恋。要保证在第一周付出足够多的时间来帮助他安稳下来。

每个孩子都是不一样的，有的很独立，有的却很依恋母亲。如果你想为你的孩子做到最好，那么记住这一点，你与孩子相处时间的长短不重要，相处过程中的质量才重要。

13. A) used B) attached C) keen D) fond

14. A) make B) give C) have D) do

15. A) quality B) attitude C) behaviour D) manner 答案与题解：

1．A 处阐明作者的观点，只有view能代表对某方面的“见解”或“观点”，其他选项只是单纯的“想法”或是“决定”，不合题意。

2．c a number of是固定搭配，修饰可数名词，表示数量上“很多”。

3．A can，t afford to do sth.为惯用语，表示“负担不起……”。

4．c 此题四个选项在语法上都能与前面的out of搭配，out of reason意为“无理的，不合理的”，out of duty与out of task意思是“出于责任，任务的”，out of necessity“有必要，出于……的必要”，综合分析只有c选项填入此空较为合理。

5．B 固定搭配be cut out for/be cut out to do sth．意为“适合于，天生就是做某事的料”，makeout“理解，辨认出；亲热”，bring out“使显出；出版；生产”，只有B选项符合文义。

6．D it comes to sth．为惯用说法，在这里意思是“涉及”，整句说的是“当涉及儿童托管时，有许多方式可供选择”，refer to意为“指……而言”。

7．c across the street意为“街对面”，其他选项的词搭配不当，故选c。

8．c 此处讨论在现实状况下，很多父母根本没有选择的余地。“在现实状况下”就是in reality，此题容易误选B,in fact意为“事实上，实际上”，常常表示经过推论得出的结果，放在此处其实也不算错，但是完形填空不是让我们选出正确的答案，而是选出最合适的选项，故此题选C。

9．B no matter+疑问词，表示“无论……”，此句意为“不管你选的托管方式有多好，一些孩子被留下时，都会激烈抗议”。原版Q:七ⅡⅦ0○⑺(0)0.8。

10. A perfectly normal为惯用说法，意思是“完全正常的”，其他选项虽说在语法上与逻辑上也不错，但perfectly更好些。

11. c family members“家庭成员”，其他选项均不适合，c为正确答案。

12. D首先从逻辑上排除A和B选项，一定是留给孩子足够“多”的时间。C选项lots后面若能加上介词of则构成修饰可数名字的短语，lots of“许多的”，原文中被修饰词time 是不可

数名词，只有D选项plenty of可以修饰不可数名词，表示“大量的”。

13. B 四个选项中除了fond与of搭配，意为“喜欢”之外，其他的选项都可与t0搭配，be used to sth．／doing“习惯于（做）某事”，be attached to“依附于，依恋于”，be keen

职称英语核心词汇汇总

职称英语核心词汇汇总

职称英语考试备考技巧 一、词汇： 需要考生在最后阶段练习查字典，建议一天练习查60对，而且一个词汇题要反、正查，同时也要进行职称考试中常考词汇的记忆，这样可以在考试时提高速度，节省时间。 词汇题一般情况下仅凭字典一般也能做对，因此考生对自己不认识、不熟悉或没有绝对把握的题一定要通过字典来确认，从而确保词汇题100%的正确率。特别提醒考生，考试时要带上一本带有同义词的词典。且词典不能含有职称、考试等字样，更不能带电子词典。 二、阅读判断： 答题时需掌握一条原则，就是在文章中有明确提出的才能确定为对。题目中若出现must、only、all、always等时，答案一般不会是对的。 除上面的原则外，一般根据下列原则和规律也可以确定正确答案。选择A、B或C的三种情况： 选A的情况：如果某题干与原文信息完全一致或基本一致 选B的情况：如果某题干与原文信息完全相反 选C的情况：如果某题干部分或局部信息在原文中未提到 三、概括大意和完成句子： 概括大意要先看选项，寻找关键词，确定所考段落。完成句子则要根据所给的短句进行选择，比较好的方法是找同类动词。 同时读每段话时，要抓住该段话的主题句和核心词汇，正确答案常常是主题句的改写。读每段话时，并不是该段话全要仔细阅读。这样，既浪费时间，也不容易抓住重点。应该抓住该段话的主题句。 四、阅读理解： 首先要重点掌握教材上的阅读理解的重点文章的背诵，来抓住出自教材上的分数，这是顺利通过考试很关键的一步。

同时充分利用老师在课上讲的解题技巧，如大标题做题法、红花绿叶原则、顺序出题原则、关键词回归定位法通过做模拟试题来进行解题技巧的演练和应用。 在做题时要注意：搞清主旨题、细节题、推理题、逻辑关系题、观点态度题。注意标题、首尾段、首尾句、逻辑关系处、细节处等出题点；在阅读时见到日期、数量等要先做好标记，这样有重点有理有节的解题，才有可能取得满意的成绩。 五、补全短文： 要先看标题定文体，再看选项，观察选项时应注意抓主干，猜大意，弄清选项大意是表示定义、因果、例子还是措施；不要放过代词、专用名字、连接词、数字等特征词；然后回头再去看课文，明确1-5的位置。 解每道题时只需要阅读该题所在段落，不需要阅读其他段落。往往通过阅读该题目的前后句就能够确定答案，在考试时，应该注意利用以下前后句子存在的关系来做题： (1)利用转折关系 (2)利用归纳总结关系 (3)利用总分关系 (4)利用并列关系 六、完形填空： (1)掌握教材上的文章内容，尤其是2013年新增文章。把这些文章在考前一个月内，争取背到“滚瓜烂熟”，这样，就算考试时怎样变化都可以应付。 (2)语法知识的总结和固定搭配、词组的记忆。这样在做题时，阅读整篇文章，考生才能从头判断每个空所缺的词的语言形式，如词类、时态、语态，并判断该词应具有的符合文章上下文的词义，最后从给出的四个选项中，选出在语法与词义上均与原文相符合的一个。除掌握以上解题技巧外，考生最好配合在模拟真实的考试时间进行模拟试题的演练，这样不但可以直接掌握复习效果，还可以迅速找到自己的薄弱环节，通过单项训练，逐一提高成绩。最后，提醒考生，在抓紧时间复习的同时要放松心情，以轻松的心态迎接考试。预祝顺利通过考试！ 全国职称英语考试必过秘籍（免背单词+免读全文版） 1、试题概况及答题顺序 1.1、必杀技：见下表中“答题顺序”：
