4. Professor Liu ______ for 20 years by the end of next summer.
A.has taught
B.will be teaching
C.has been teaching
D.will have taught
A B C D
D
[解析] 本题考查将来完成时的用法。本句有两个时间状语。其中一个是表示将来的by the end of next summer,因此需要使用将来时;另一个是表示从过去开始到将来时间段的for 20 years,需要与延续性动词的完成时态连用。综合上述分析可知,本句的谓语动词需要使用将来完成时,故D项为正确答案。 [避错指南] A项是现在完成时,C项是现在完成进行时,都不能与表将来的时间状语搭配使用。B项是将来进行时,不能和需要使用完成时的状语for 20 years搭配使用,故也排除。
5. ______ of the machines on display were made in China.
A.Second-fifths
B.Two-fifth
C.Two-fifths
D.Second-fifths
A B C D
C
分数的表达足以基数词代表分子,序数词代表分母,除了分子是“1”的情况外,序数词要用复数。

1. The foreign students advisor recommended that we (study) ______ more English before entering the university.
Parents with an adopted child wonder whether, when and how to tell their child that he or she is adopted. They also want to know if there are special problems for an adopted child. Child and adolescent psychiatrists (精神病学家) recommend that the child be told about the adoption by the adoptive parents. Children should be told about their adoption in a way that they can understand. There are two different views on when a child should be told about the adoption. Many experts believe the child should be told at the earliest age possible. This approach provides the child an early opportunity to accept and integrate the concept of being "adopted". Other experts believe that telling a child too early may confuse the young child who can't really understand the event. These experts advise waiting until the child is older. In either case, children should learn of their adoption from the adoptive parents. This helps give the message that adoption is good and that the child can trust the parents, If the child first learns about the adoption intentionally or accidentally from someone other than parents, the child may feel anger and mistrust towards the parents, and may view the adoption as bad or shameful because it was kept as a secret. Adopted children will want to talk about their adoption and parents should encourage this process. Several excellent children's story books are available in bookstores which help parents tell the child about being adopted.
1. Parents who have an adopted child want to know ______.
A.how to hide the fact that he or she is adopted
B.when the child was born exactly
C.whether they should tell the child that he or she is adopted
Do you find it very difficult and painful to get up in the morning? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're "hot". That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: "Get up, Peter! You'll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point. Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.
1. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ______.
A.he is a lazy person
B.he refuses to follow his own energy cycle
C.he is not sure when his energy is low
D.he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening
A B C D
D
[解析] 由文章第二段“The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening”可知答案选D。
2. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ______.
A.help to keep your energy for the day's work
B.help you to control your temper early in the day
C.enable you to concentrate on your routine work
D.keep your energy cycle under control all day
A B C D
A
[解析] 从文中最后一段第一行可知答案选A。
3. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one's energy.
B.Dr. Klitman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.
C.Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.
4. If one wants to work efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should ______.
A.change his energy cycle
B.overcome his laziness
C.get up earlier than usual
D.go to bed earlier
A B C D
C
[解析] 从本文第三段“If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour.”很容易得出答案为C。
5. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?
A.Unawareness of energy cycles.
B.Familiar monologues.
C.A change in a family member's energy cycle.
D.Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.
A B C D
A
[解析] 由文章第二段最后一句“Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.”可推断出,引发家庭矛盾的其中一个原因可能是不清楚能量周期。
