[解析] 考查固定搭配的用法。句意为“她宁愿她的丈夫在恶劣天气下不出行,但他坚持今天回家”。would rather do sth.为固定搭配,意为“宁愿……,最好……,宁可……”,其否定形式为would rather not do sth.“最好不要做某事,宁愿不做某事”。故本题选B。

C.ranging
D.jumping
A B C D
C
[解析] 考查词义辨析。句意为“该公司是工程外包的带头人,是一家纯粹的游戏工程公司,拥有多个领域从概念设计到产品实现解决方案的专业技能”。通过分析句子成分可知,主语为The company,系动词为is,宾语为a pioneer和a pure play engineering firm,with部分为非谓语结构,表伴随。range from...to...为固定搭配,意为“从……到……的范围,在……中变化”,range与其形式主语expertise为主动关系,故用v-ing的形式,C项符合句意。jump from...to...意为“从……上升到……”,不符合句意,故排除。of和by为介词,后面不能跟from...to...的结构,故排除。故本题选C。
6. ______ us the information, we would have been ambushed.
A.Had he not given
B.If he did not give
C.Should he not give
D.Were he not to give
A B C D

[解析] 考查虚拟语气。句意为“要不是他告诉我们这个消息,我们早就遭到埋伏了”。该题考查对过去的虚拟,其形式为If+主语+had+done,主语+should/would/might/could+have done,此时的if可以省略,变为Had+主语+(not) done,主语+should/would/might/could+have done。由此可知,A项正确。其主句用的是虚拟语气的被动语态。B项属于纯粹的过去时,不存在C项这一结构,D项中的Were he not to give是对将来时的虚拟,因此错误。故本题选A。
7. ______ we have noticed, family planning is one of the most effective ways to control population growth.
10. She could do nothing but ______ the man who had stepped on her toes.

A B C D
D
[解析] 考查动词搭配的用法。句意为“她除了诅咒那个踩了她脚的人之外,什么也做不了”。could do nothing but后面用动词原形,意为“只能做某事”。故本题选D。
阅读理解 Professionals recognize that there' s a lot more to a professional service than a career. In the never-ending battle to find a worthwhile work-life balance, many people have found themselves frustrated or dissatisfied. But one key many career-oriented men and women have identified to help resolve this disparity is through giving back to the community. This type of community service comes in the form of volunteer and charity work. At its heart, volunteerism represents a professional' s understanding of the critical link between service and the community. Simply working a career is not enough for many people. Instead, these devoted contributors volunteer their time, money and service to help make the community a better place. Charities exist in all shapes and sizes and for a huge variety of subjects and services. This allows professionals to link their own personal passions to a charitable organization that could use their help.
1. According to the passage, which of the following is true about the work-life balance?______
A.Community services may help people reach such a balance.
B.Most people cannot get a worthwhile work-life balance.
C.This kind of balance makes people frustrated.
D.Career-oriented people don' t need such a balance.
A B C D

[解析] 推理题。题干意为“根据文章,下列关于平衡工作和生活的哪一项是正确的?”。A项“社区服务可以帮助人们达到这种平衡”,文章的第一段提到了“to help resolve this disparity is through giving back to the community”,即:解决这一平衡的方法是回馈社会。然后在第二、三段分别讲述了回馈社会的具体方法,其中包括社区服务,所以A项正确。B项“大多数人无法得到一个有价值的工作与生活的平衡”和文意相反,文章讲述通过各种形式的慈善活动可以让大多数人获得工作与生活的平衡,故排除。C项“这种平衡让人感到沮丧”和第一段的“在寻找有价值的工作和生活平衡的战斗中,许多人发现自己很沮丧”矛盾,句子提到人们在“过程中”会觉得沮丧,而非“找到后的平衡本身”会让人们沮丧,故C项错误。D项“以事业为导向的人不需要这样的平衡”和第一段的“许多以事业为导向的男性和女性需要这样的平衡”相反,因此排除。故本题选A。
2. Why do some professionals choose to be a volunteer?______
A.Because they need such experiences at work.
B.Because simply working a career is not enough for them.
C.Because there is a link between service and the community.
D.Because they have spare time and money to help the community.
