Why is Jane so happy?
[解析] 题目询问简为何高兴。从“Jane is happy and excited. She is going to be married tomorrow” (简又高兴又兴奋,明天她就要结婚了)可以得出答案为“get/be married”。

[听力原文] Where has Jane's wedding dress been made?
[解析] 题目询问简的结婚礼服在哪儿做的。从“She has had her beautiful wedding dress designed and made by a leading fashion shop.”(她那漂亮的结婚礼服是由一流的时尚店设计制作的)可以得出答案为“leading fashion”。

[听力原文] Who painted Jane's house?

Part Ⅱ Structure Directions:This part is to test your ability to construct grammatically correct sentences. It consists of 2 sections.
Section A Directions:In this section, there are 10 incomplete sentences. You are required to complete each one by deciding on the most appropriate word or words from the 4 choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then you should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a ,single line through the center.
1. If I ______ harder for the final exam, I should have passed it.
3. If I had rememberedthe window, the thief would not have got in.
A.to close
B.closing
C.to have closed
D.having closed
A B C D
A
[考点] 动词不定式 [解析] 主句中有would not have done的形式,可以判断是虚拟从句,也就是说小偷肯定已经进来了,而如果记得去关丁窗子,就不会发生这种事厂,因此用remember to do sth.表示“记得去做某事”。 [避错] remember后面可以接doing sth.或to do sth。两种形式:remember to do sth.表示“记得去做某事”,而remember doing sth.则表示“记得做过某事”。例如:Don't you remember closing the window? (你不记得已经关上窗子了吗?)to have closed为不定式的完成式,而句中关窗的动作并没有做;having closed为现在分词的完成式,既不符合题意,也不能用在remember后。
4. Jack ______ yet, otherwise he would have telephoned me.
A.mustn't have arrived
B.shouldn't have arrived
C.can't have arrived
D.need not have arrived
A B C D
C
本题测试的是情态动词的猜测功能。全句的意思是:“杰克不可能已经到了,如果到了,他会给我打电话的。”后半句是一个虚拟语气,表明他没给我打电话,依此推出他不可能到了。“must + have done”表示对过去情况的肯定猜测,否定句中用“can't +have done”。根据句意,应选答案C。
5. --How long ______ each other before they ______ married? --For about a year.
8. John was now quite sure that he was going to miss his train even though he was already not far from the station. He was wondering what to do when a bus came along heading in the ______ of the station.
A.way
B.direction
C.road
D.position
A B C D
B
本题测试的是名词词义的辨析。全句的意思是:“约翰知道虽然自己离车站不远,但是肯定会错过火车了。当一辆驶向车站的汽车开来时,他在想该怎么办。”所给的被选项中只有direction须用in the direction of...,意为“朝….—方向……”。根据句意,应选答案B。
9. This certificate will prove______to you in your applying for a good job.
A.being of some use
B.be of some use
C.to be of some use
D.of some use
A B C D
C
[考点分析] prove的用法中有“主语+prove(to be+形容词)”,意为“……证明原来是……的”,而be of+名词相当于“be+该名词相应的形容词”,将选项填入,原句为“…prove to be useful(of some use…)”,符合prove的用法;prove的用法及be of+名词的结构。
10. I will have to ______ my teacher before I make my decision.
Section B Directions: There are 10 incomplete statements here. You should fill in each blank with the proper form of the word given in brackets. Write the word or words in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet.
1. The government promised to make the problem of heavy traffic the highest (prior).
priority
[考点] 词性转换 [解析] 因为空格前面是形容词最高级,后面需要跟名词形式。
2. Many (store) ______ in China sell mooncakes that day.
stores
[解析] 本题考查名词。根据many可知,后边应该用名词的复数形式,故应用stores。
3. Tears in eyes, she found his cat seriously (wound) ______ .
Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension Directions:This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.
Directions:After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 to 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. A terrifying example of the sea's power saw about 200,000 people die in 12 different countries at the end of 2004. The devastation (毁坏) was caused when a massive earthquake sent tsunamis smashing into India Ocean coastlines. Communities in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Malaysia and East Africa have been destroyed by the monster waves. Whole towns were simply swept aside by the power of the water. Cars, trains and buildings could not survive, let alone the people who stood in the way. The earthquake measured 9.0 on the Richter scale (里氏地震) and occurred off the coast of Indonesia. It was recorded as the fifth strongest since 1900. Scientists said the quake was as powerful as a million of the atomic bombs that were dropped on Japan during World War Ⅱ. "This may be the worst natural disaster in recent history, because it is affecting so many heavily populated coastal areas," said Jan Johnson, a U.N. official. Because such waves rarely happen in the India Ocean, there is no system in place to warn coastal communities they are about to be hit. Tsunami is Japanese for "harbor wave". They are usually caused by a sudden rise or fall of part oF the earth' s crust (地壳) under the ocean. Tsunamis often happen in-oceans and they are most common in the Pacific. Normally a tsunami includes a series of waves. Tsunamis can be very long—as long as 1,000 kilometers--and be as far as one hour apart. They are able to cross the entire ocean without losing much energy. One of the most striking facts about Tsunamis is that an earthquake on one side of the Pacific Ocean cause giant waves and destruction on the other side. When the ocean is deep, tsunamis can travel unnoticed at a speed of up to 800 kilometers per hour. They can cross the entire ocean in a day or less. The wave may only be a few meters high in the ocean but when it is near the shore and reaches shallow water, the wave builds up very quickly in height. Witnesses (目击者) in some areas of Indonesia reported seeing up to 10-meter-high waves crash into the shore.
1. We can infer from the passage that fewer people would have died in the south Asian tsunami ______.
A.if there had been the warning system along the coast
B.if the earthquake had happened off the coast of Thailand
Directions:This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45. Traditionally, universities have carried out two main activities: research and teaching. Many experts would argue that these activities play a critical role in serving the community. The fundamental question, however, is: how does the community want or need to be served? In recent years universities have been coming under increasing pressure from both the government and the public to ensure that they do not remain "ivory towers" (象牙塔) of study separated from the realities of everyday life. University teachers have been encouraged, and in some cases constrained (强逼), to provide more courses which produce graduates with the technical skills required for the commercially useful purpose. If Aristotle wanted to work in university in the UK today, he would have a good chance of teaching computer science but would not be so readily employable as a philosopher. A postindustrial society requires large numbers of computer programmers, engineers, managers and technicians to maintain and develop its economic growth but "man", as the Bible says, "does not live by bread alone." Apart from requiring medical and social services, which do not directly contribute to economic growth, the society should also value and enjoy literature, music and the arts. A successful musical play, for instance, can contribute as much to the Gross National Product through dollars as any other things.
1. The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.
A.universities must meet the need of the society
B.universities play an important role in our society
C.research and teaching are of great importance in universities
D.traditional universities do a good job serving the society
A B C D
A
主旨题。第一段主要讲述大学职能即满足社会需要,故可以确定A为正确答案。
2. We can infer from the second paragraph that ______.
A.the governments interfere too much with college education
B.the society is not satisfied with the present college education
Directions:The following is a resume. After reading it, you are required to complete the outline below it (No. 46 through No. 50).

1. What is the main product line of the company? ______.
Chinese toys
2. What role does the company play in Shanghai commercial circle? It is one of the ______ corporations.
import and export
3. How does the company think it has performed in the world market? It has enjoyed ______ in the world market for a long time.
a good reputation
4. What are enclosed with the letter? Leaflets showing ______ with detailed specifications and means of packing.
various products
5. What is the purpose of the letter? It is to establish ______ with another corporation.
1. 61. Anyway, even if one wanted to, one couldn't put the clock back to an earlier age.
A.无论如何,人们也无法找回失去的岁月。
B.不管他怎么做,也无法将时钟拨回到早先的时代。
C.不管怎样,即使有人想这么做,他也无法将时钟拨回到早先的时代。
D.不管怎样,即使有人想这么做,他也无法使自己退回到年轻的时候。
A B C D
[解析] 本题考查的重点是put the clock back to an earlier age,意为“将时钟拨回到早先的时代”。因此我们可以排除与此意思不符的选项A、D;C选项为正确翻译:译文B漏译了even if one wanted to。
2. When the response happens, it is not a mistake: it is mankind's instinct for moral reasoning in action, an instinct that should be encouraged rather than laughed at.
A.当这种反应发生的时候,一点错误没出。它是人类在行为上的道德推理的本能,应该受到鼓励而不是嘲笑。
B.这种反应并不错,这是人类用道德观念进行推理的本能在起作用,这种本能应得到鼓励而不应遭到嘲弄。
C.当这种反应发生的时候,它本身不是个错误。应该受到鼓励而不是嘲笑。
D.我们应该鼓励而不是嘲笑那些本能。因为这种反应发生的时候,它本身只是一种本能,不是错误。
A B C D
B
[解析] 句子的主干是it is not a mistake;it is...instinct...an instinct that should be...以冒号为界,将全句分成两个复合句。前面的复合句里,When the response happens作时间状语从句;冒号后面的复合句解释为什么说“它”不是一个错误。这里有一个that从句,作instinct的定语。D)项没有翻泽出moral(道德的)reasoning in action,但其余的翻译是正确的;A)和C)有错译和漏译。
3. Don't you think it's high time that you stopped to prepare your speech on how to judge a man on his looks?
A.难道你不认为该停下来准备明天关于如何从外表来判断一个人的演讲了吗?
B.难道你不认为你该停下来准备明天关于如何从脸色来审判一个人的讲话了吗?
C.难道你不认为你该停下来去准备明天关于如何以貌取人的演说了吗?
D.难道你不认为到了你该停止准备明天关于不要以貌取人的演讲的时候了吗?
A B C D
C
[解析] 解答本题的关键在于对关键词(组)的理解和翻译。首先要判断出该疑问句中think后面接的是宾语从句,该从句中it's high time that要求使用虚拟语气,表示“是该……(的时候了)”;stopped to prepare表示“停下来去准备……”,而不是“停止准备……”,因此D)项此处翻译错了,而C)项翻译的最为得当;judge a man on his looks翻译成“以貌取人”比较贴切,A)项翻译成“从外表来判断一个人”也基本正确,但B)项只译作“从脸色来审判一个人”不正确;还要注意不要被D)项的译文“不要以貌取人”所干扰。
4. These reports provide you with the information on your courses and activity planning for the year.
A.这些报告提供的信息有助于你了解本年的课程与活动计划。
B.这些报告为你提供本年度的课程与活动计划的信息。
C.本年的课程与活动计划为这些报告提供了信息。
D.本年的活动计划可以在这些报告中找到。
A B C D
B
本题的翻译要点是对provide some body with...(为某人提供),courses(课程)以及 for the year(本年度)的理解。译文B忠于原文,译文流畅、通顺,符合中文表达习惯,为最佳答案。译文A基本译出了原文的意思,但用词不够精练,而且有添加意思的现象。译文C完全误解了原文的意思,是错译。译文D虽译出了原文的部分意思,但有漏译现象。
5. It is desirable for a teacher to have a genuine capacity to understand the minds and feelings of children, since most teachers are school teachers.
[难点分析] 本句是一个主从复合句,理解从句的意思不难,其中“since”引导的从句表示原因,意为“既然大多数老师都在学校工作”,但是主句的结构则稍显复杂:需要注意的是主句中的“it”为形式主语,其真正的主语是后面的动词不定式“to have a genuine capacity to...”,其中嵌套的动词不定式“to understand the minds and feelings of children”(理解孩子们的思想和情感)是名词“capacity”(能力)的定语,因此主句的主语可理解为“拥有真正的理解孩子们思想和情感的能力”。排除以上难点后不难看出,四个选项中选项B最为合适。选项D的问题在于未能识别出主句主语中动词不定式作定语这一功能,将“拥有真正的能力”和“能力”的定语“理解孩子们的思想和情感”译为两个并列的动作,因而不妥。选项C同样未能准确识别出主句主语中动词不定式作定语这一功能.对其中成分作了另一番错误组合,同时该选项还将“since”误译为“自从”,该从句为一般现在时,并非一般过去时,这样译显然不妥。选项A错译了“since”和“desirable”二词,在翻译主句时完全脱离了原来的句法结构,问题最多。
Part Ⅴ Writing Directions:This part is to test your ability to do practical writing. You are required to write a note according to the following information in Chinese. Remember to write the note on the Translation/Composition Sheet.
