We know that some of you have already visited a few muse ums in the neighborhood, so we've organized a visit to one for those who are interested. At 3 o'clock that afternoon, we've planned games that'll help you get to know your fellow newcomers. It is very interesting, and you can look forward to it. You'll all be rather tired after dinner so we thought you might like to see a film at 7 p. m. , which is free only to all International English School members. On Saturday we have organized a day trip to visit the historical city of Bath. We'll set off at 10 o'clock that morning, on board a bus we've hired for the day. Everything will be provided for you including your lunch. Now on Sunday, we've left it up to you how you spend the day, both in the morning and the afternoon. OK, that's all for now. Thank you. And do you have any questions?

第二部分 英语知识运用
第一节 单项填空 从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
1. -- ______ are your parents? -- They are both teachers.
A.Who
B.Whom
C.What
D.Which
A B C D
C
从答语中判断出问句是对身份或职业的询问，而疑问词what可用来询问人的身份或职业。此问句亦可说成“What do your parents do?”。
2. He seems to ______ Jane. He knows her well.
A.introduce to
B.be introducing to
C.be introduced to
D.have been introduced to
A B C D
D
考查非谓语动词。因主语he同introduce之间存在被动关系，故to后要用被动结构，排除[A]、[B]；从后句“He knows her well．”可知introduce的动作已经发生，所以选 [D]。
3. In the ______ of most people, there will be a good harvest this autumn.
A.opinion
B.look
C.thought
D.idea
A B C D
A
in the opinion of sb．/in one's opinion是固定搭配，意为“依某人看来”。此结构中的opinion不能用复数形式。
4. He didn't describe the subject fully. He spoke ______.
A.in general
B.in particular
C.in common
D.in short
A B C D
A
in general=generally“一般说来，大概地”；in particular“特别地，尤其”；in common“共同，共有”；in short“总之，简言之”。题意为“他未涉及这个主题的详细情况，他只是大概地说了说。”故[A]正确。
5. After he gave a report about the school, Mr. White ______ the visitors around it.
A.went on to show
B.went on showing
C.went on with showing
D.keep on showing
A B C D
A
本题考查soon相关结构的用法。go on to do．．．是终止或完成了一件事情之后接着再做另一件事；go on doing．．．则强调某个动作的延续，即一直在做某一件事；go on with +n．表达的意思等于go on doing．．，但with后不能跟V．-ing形式，故[C]项错误；keep on doing相当于go on doing...。从本题题意可知，怀特先生做了两件事情，故选[A]。
6. Rose was wild with joy ______ the result of the examination.
A.to
B.at
C.by
D.as
A B C D
B
此题易受思维定势的影响而误选[D]项，但as the result of=because of意为“由于”。句意为“一听到考试结果，Rose欣喜若狂。”空格处应填入at，意为“一听到/看到/想到…”。
7. -- Good morning, Grand Hotel. -- Hello, I'd like to book a room for the nights of the 18th and 19th. --______.
A.What can I do for you?
B.Just a minute, please.
C.What's the matter?
D.At your service.
A B C D
B
本题考查在特定语境中灵活运用语言知识的能力。当顾客要求预订两夜的房间后，宾馆服务员应当核查届时是否还有空余的房间或记录顾客的姓名等，然后再向顾客作出答复，故应说“请稍等”(Just a minute)。
8. Please tell me the way you thought of ______ your garden.
A.taking care of
B.take care of
C.to take care of
D.how to take care of
A B C D
C
此题易误选[A]项，认为其做介词of的宾语，但分析句子结构可知，实际上所选项应该做定语修饰the way，而the way后一般跟to do或of doing做其定语。句中you thought of是省略了关系代词that/which的定语从句，也修饰the way。
9. More new machines will ______ from other countries to build the factory in my town.
第二节 完型填空 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出能填入相应空白处的最佳选项。 I arrived in the United States on February 6,2005 ,but I remember my flint day there very clearly.

I didn't feel tired so I continued to walk 18 the city. When I returned to the hotel, I couldn't sleep because I 19 hearing the fire and police sirens (汽笛) during the night. I 20 awake and thought about New York.
1.
A.flied
B.landed
C.got
D.went
A B C D
B
由上文可知，“我”清楚记得第一天到达美国的情景，应填[B]landed，表示飞机降落(在机场)。
2.
A.too
B.so
C.very
D.much
A B C D
A
“too... to...”为固定句型，表“太…而不能”。
3.
A.changed
B.carried
C.moved
D.took
A B C D
D
搭乘车辆要用动词take。
4.
A.in
B.at
C.for
D.to
A B C D
A
in astonishment为固定搭配，表示“惊讶地”。
5.
A.old-make
B.man-made
C.new-made
D.man-make
A B C D
B
man-made为复合形容词，表示“人造的”。其余三项构词错误。
6. A. returnedB. led C. left D. picked
A B C D
C
and所连接的前后两个并列的谓语动词时态要保持一致，从后面的句子可以看出是离开了我。故选[C]。
7.
A.must
B.had to
C.should
D.ought
A B C D
B
have to表客观需要，意思是“不得不”(离开初来乍到的“我”而回去上班)。
8.
A.agreed
B.said
C.told
D.promised
A B C D
D
promise to do sth．表示“答应，许诺做某事”。从搭配上，[A]选项也适合，但从常理和常用性上来说，promise更合适。
9.
A.Shortly after
B.Long before
C.As soon as
D.So long as
A B C D
A
从句子结构看，此处需要一连词连接时间状语从句，[A]项shortly after表“在…后不久”，符合语境。而[B]项“在…之前很久”，与语境不符，显然我是在朋友离去之后去的饭馆；[C]as soon as表示“一…就”，但在原文，朋友离开(had left)显然发生在我去饭馆之前(went to a restaurant)故此项错误。
A Every animal is a living radiator(散热器) -- heat formed in its cells and given-off through its skin. Warm-blooded animals keep a normal temperature by continuously replacing lost surface heat; smaller animals, which have more skin for every ounce (盎司) of body weight, must produce heat faster than bigger ones. Because small animals burn fuels faster, scientists say they live faster. The speed at which an animal lives is determined by measuring the rate at which it uses oxygen (氧气). A chicken, for example, uses one-half cubic (立方的) centimeters of oxygen every hour for each gram it weighs. Because it uses oxygen eight times as fast, it is said that the mouse is living eight times as fast as the chicken. The smallest of the warm-blooded animal, the humming-bird, lives a hundred times as fast as an elephant. There is a limit to how small a warm-blooded animal can be. A bird that weighs only two and a half grams would starve to death. It would burn up its food too rapidly and would not be able to eat fast enough to supply itself more fuel.
1. The passage says that every animal is a living radiator because it ______.
A.produces heat in its body cells
B.burns fuel to produce heat
C.sends out heat through its skin
D.takes in oxygen for burning fuel
A B C D
C
[解析] 选项具有一定的迷惑性，文中破折号后的名词heat及其两个后置分词修饰语对“a living radiator”做了解释说明，其中最能解释radiator的明显是“give off”。
2. Small animals are said to live faster than big ones because they ______.
A.have more skin for their weigh
B.replace lost heat faster
C.burn fuel faster than big ones
D.keep a higher body temperature
A B C D
C
文种说because smaller animals burn fuel faster，scientists say they live faster，故答案为[C]。注意，此题很容易从文中首次出现的“smaller animals”后面的非限定性定语从句“which have more skin for every ounce of body weigh”误选[A]。
3. The amount of oxygen an animal uses determine ______.
A.the heat the body produces
B.the food it eats
C.its size and shape
D.the length of time it lives
A B C D
A
文中说“The speed at which an animal lives is determined by measuring the rate at which it uses oxygen(动物生长的速度是通过测量动物使用氧气的速度来决定的)”同时，从文中所列举的事例都可看出，动物生长的速度越来越快，其产生的热量也更多。
4. What can we infer from the text?
A.There is no limit as to how large a warm-blooded animal can be.
B.The humming-bird lives faster than any other warm-blooded animals.
C.Small animals have less skin for their body weight than large ones.
D.The humming-bird is the smallest of the warm-blooded animals.
B Signs in Chinese will be set up in public areas, such as airports, to help Chinese travelers, the Italian Government announced in late February,2005. Now many European countries are expected to follow this example. Despite the different language, traveling across Europe has never been so simple. Just five years ago, if you wanted to visit Germany in the north and Spain in the south in one trip, you had to wait for weeks to apply for different visas(签证) from the two countries. You also needed a calculator(计算器) because both countries had different money. Today, with a Schengen Visa issued(签发)by any member countries, you Can travel across 15 European countries without stopping. Since 2002, within most of the EU, there is now just one type of money called the Euro. The Euro was designed to be the only money in the EU, and already makes it easier to shop around. If you drive, your driving license and car insurance policy are valid (有效的) in the other countries. And you can use your mobile phone everywhere. All the countries in the continent are melting(融于) into a united Europe under the EU. For Europeans and visitors the result is that it is more convenient to travel back and forth between the different countries.
1. What does the writer mean by saying" Now many European countries ,are expected to follow this ______. example" ( Lines 2 - 3, Para. 1 )?
A.More signs will be set up for Chinese in other European countries.
B.Chinese is now an important language in Europe.
C.More Chinese people will go to travel across Europe.
D.More Europeans have a desire to know more about China.
C An old Indian story says that the game of chess was invented by Sissa Ben, prime Minister of King Shirham. As soon as the invention was finished he gave it to the king, who was glad and asked him what he would like to have in return. To the king's surprise, what Sissa wanted seemed very little. "Your Majesty," said the minister, kneeling(跪下) in front of the king. "I want nothing but some wheat. Please put a grain of wheat on the first square of the chessboard, two on the second, four on the third, eight on the fourth.., and so on, doubling the number for each following square, give me enough grains to cover the 64 squares of the chessboard." "You don't ask for much, my honest servant. You might have asked for gold or money," said the king and then ordered a bag of wheat brought to the palace. But when the counting began, with one grain for the square, two for the second, four for the third, and so on, the bag was emptied before the 20th square. More bags were brought, but the number of grain needed for the following squares increased so rapidly that the king soon realized that he was not able to keep his promise even with all the crops in the whole India! In fact, he would have needed 8,466,744,073,709,511,615 grains, which would be as much as that they would produce in a bout 2,000 years! Now the king found himself keep in debt to his minister. He had either to face the terrible trouble all his life or to cut off Sissa's head, which, it is said, he finally chose.
1. According to the story, the game of chess was invented by an ______.
3. The king was glad to know that Sissa only wanted some wheat because ______.
A.wheat was not expensive
B.it didn't seem much
C.Sissa was honest to him
D.he didn't want to give Sissa gold
A B C D
B
根据第一段中的To the king's surprise，what Sissa wanted seemed very little．“令国王感到惊讶的是，Sissa想要的东西似乎很少。”及第二段中的You don't ask for much，可知答案为[B]。文中并没有明确说明是因为wheat不贵国王才高兴，所以[A]不正确。
4. A bag of wheat was enough for ______.
A.19 squares
B.one third of the squares
C.the first 19 squares
D.20 squares
A B C D
C
．．the bag was emptied before the 20th square．．．”可知，在填第二十个方格之前，那袋麦子空了，从而推断出：一袋麦子够填到第十九个方格，故选[C]项。
D Museums have changed. They are no longer places that .one should "go but enjoy". At a science museum in Canada, you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless electricity passes through your body. At the Children's Museum in New York, you can play an African drum(E). There are no "Don't Touch signs in some other museums in the USA. More and more museum directors have realized that people learn best when they can become part of what they are seeing. In many science museums, the visitors are encouraged to touch, listen, operate and experiment so as to discover scientific rules for themselves. The purpose is not only to provide fun, but also help people feel at home in the world of science. One cause of all these changes is the increase in wealth and spare time. Another cause is the growing number of young people in the population. Many of them are college students or college graduates. They see things in a new and different way. They want art that they can take part in. The same is true about science and history. The old museums have been changing and the government is encouraging the building of new modern museums. In the United States and Canada, there are more than 6,000 museums, almost twice as many as there were 25 years ago.
1. The directors of the museums have realized ______.
A.the scientific rules are important
B.people learn best when they look at something
C.visitors prefer to learn from museums
D.people become more interested if they take part in
A B C D
D
由第三段第一句“More and more directors have realized that people learn best when they become part of what they are seeing．”可知博物馆经营者已经意识到了“参与”会提升人们对博物馆的兴趣。
2. Why has the growing population of young people caused the changes in museums?
4. According to the passage, we can learn that ______.
A.people should go to a museum to learn something
B.people in the United States don't have much free time
C.people are enjoying themselves fully in modern museums
D.in the United States there aren't enough museums
A B C D
C
在第二段中可知，人们在现代博物馆观赏得很愉快。

A B C D
C
短文第二段第一句“Why not let Nottinghamshire's buses provide you with a cheap， convenient and safe way of enjoying a day out?”为主题句，然后作者分别讲解了它服务的几个特点：便宜、舒服、安全。由第一段知[A]项中的all不对，应为most of；由第四段知[B]项中的every day应为every Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday；由“Simply buy your ticket on the first bus you board on a Sunday and then travel wherever you want in NottinShamshire for the rest of the day．”可以看出[D]项不正确。
2. Information on bus services is available at these places except ______.
A.Visitor attractions

Dear Mr. Jefferson, I am writing to thank you for your kindness and hospitality I enjoyed during my stay in your place. It is very kind of you to invite me to spend my Christmas holiday in your home last month. The room you arranged for me in your house was quiet, clean and comfortable. The food was very delicious. And visits to local shows were really wonderful. This experience has not only expanded my view, but also enriched my knowledge. By the way, if it is convenient for you, please come over and spend your Spring Festival this year in my home. Thank you very much again.
