Part Ⅰ Listening Comprehension Directions: This part is to test your listening ability. It consists of 3 sections.
Section A Directions: This section is to test your ability to give proper responses. There are 5 recorded questions in it. After each question, there is a pause. The questions will be spoken two times. When you hear a question, you should decide on the correct answer from the 4 choices marked A, B, C and D given in your test paper. Then you should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
[解析] 本题考查的是对他人请求的回答。句子意思是“迈克,你可以帮我吗?”对这种表示请求的句子,肯定回答通常是“Yes/OK/Sure/Certainly(好的)”;否定回答则一般用“I'm sorry, but...”。D项Sure, no problem(当然,没有问题)是肯定回答,故正确。 A项This way, please(这边请),B项Here you are(给你)和C项Thanks a lot(非常感谢)都不能回答表示请求的句子。
4.
A.Not at all.
B.Not too bad.
C.I can do it well.
D.Give me a hand, please.
A B C D
B
[听力原文] Haven't seen you for ages. How are you doing?
[解析] 本题询问对问候语的回答。题目的意思是“好久没见到你了,你好吗?”How are you doing相当于How are you,意为“你好吗?”B项Not too bad(不太坏)是其回答。 A项Not at all有多种含义,可用于回答感谢,意为“别客气”;也可用于回答道歉,意为“没关系”;还可用来表示否定,意为“一点也不;完全不”;C项I can do it well(我可以做得很好)把How are you doing误解成了“你做得怎么样”。D项Give me a hand, please(请帮助我)不用于回答问候用语。
5.
A.Yes, please.
B.Here it is.
C.Mind your step.
D.Have a nice day.
A B C D
A
[听力原文] Hello, may I come in to see the manager?
[解析] 本题询问对表示请求的问句的回答。问题意为“我可以进来见经理吗?”A项Yes, please(可以,请)是肯定回答。 B项Here it is用法比较多,如:表示要把某物递给某人,意为“给你;这就是你要的东西”;表示找到了要找的东西,意为“在这里”。C项Mind your step(注意走好)用于提醒对方。D项Have a nice day(祝你今天愉快)往往是人们在分手的时候说的,因此也是再见的意思。
Section B Directions: This section is to test your ability to understand short dialogues. There are 5 recorded dialogues in it. After each dialogue, there is a recorded question. Both the dialogues and questions will be spoken two times. When you hear a question, you should decide on the correct answer from the 4 choices marked A, B, C and D given in your test paper. Then you should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
[听力原文] W: It's 30 dollars.How would you like to pay? M: I'll pay in cash. Q: How will the man pay?
[解析] 事实细节题。题目询问男士如何付款。对话开头女士说:“30美元,你想要如何付款?”男士回答:“我用现金支付。”A项In cash与对话中的关键词pay in cash(用现金支付)一致,故为答案。 B项By cheque(用支票)、C项With a gift card(用礼品卡)和D项Through an online account(通过网上账户)在对话中均未提及,故可排除。考生在听音过程中抓住了cash一词,便可排除其他选项。
3.
A.Writing a plan.
B.Making a proposal.
C.Checking a report.
D.Giving a lecture.
A B C D
A
[听力原文] M: Hi, Rose. What are you busy with? W: I'm writing a erodtlction plan. Q: What is Rose busy cloing?
[解析] 事实细节题。题目问Rose在忙什么。对话开头男士问:“Rose,你在忙什么呢?”女士回答:“我正在写一项生产计划。”由对活中的关键词writing...plan(写计划)可知A项Writing a plan是正确答案。 B项Making a proposal(提建议)、C项 Checking a report(检查报告)和D项Giving a lecture(做讲座)都与对话中提供的信息不符,故均予以排除。
4.
A.She is going to study abroad.
B.She will tak.e a holiday.
C.She'll take the job.
D.She has got a pay raise.
A B C D
C
[听力原文] M: Mary, you've got a job offer, haven't you? W: Yes, I've decided to take it. Q: What does the woman mean?
[解析] 细节推理题。题目询问女士活浯的意思。对话中男士问:“玛丽,你拿到工作邀约了,是吗?”女士回答:“是的,我决定接受它。”由此可知,C项 She'll take the job(她将接受那份工作)正确。 A项She is going to study abroad(她要去国外读书)、B项She will take a holiday(她要去度假)与job无关。而D项She has got a pay raise(她已获得加薪)在对话中没有提到。
5.
A.It is quite large.
B.It is noisy.
C.It is too far away.
D.It-is comfortable.
A B C D
D
[听力原文] M: How do you like your new apartment? W: I like it very much. It's small but comfortable. Q: What does the woman think of her new apartnent?
[解析] 事实细节题。本题询问女士觉得新公寓怎么样。对话开头男士询问女士对新公寓的看法,女士回答:“我很喜欢,它小但很舒适。”依据其中的关键词comfoltable可得出正确答案是D项It is comfortable(舒适的)。 A项It is quite large(很大)与女士话语中的small相反。B项It is noisy(很吵)和C项It is too far away(太远了)都没有在对话中提到。

[听力原文] Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! Good news for you! A new after-school child care center is going to be built in this area .of the city. This center is to provide a safe environment for children between 3 and 11 years old.

We are also looking for help, such as providing facilities, soft toys and so on. We will be grateful for any help, as 'help is always very limited.
Part Ⅱ Vocabulary and Structure Directions: This part is to test your ability to use words and phrases correctly to construct meaningful and grammatically correct sentences. It consists of 2 sections.
Section A Directions: There are 10 incomplete statements here. You are required to complete each statement by choosing the appropriate answer from the 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
1. Do not ______ me to help you unless you work harder.
A.expect
B.hope
C.depend
D.think
A B C D
A
[解析] 本题考查动词辨析。空格后的me to help you表明需填人的动词有-sb. to do sth. 的用法,expect“期望,指望”符合要求,故正确。该词还有以下用法:expect to do sth. ;expect(that)+从句。 B项hope“希望”的用法为hope to do sth.或hope(that)+从句不符合空格处的用法要求;C项depend“依靠”是不及物动词,要与on/upon一起连用才能接宾语;D项think“认为,考虑”的用法也不符合要求,其用法为:think (that)+从句;think of...as sth. ;think...(to be) sth.(认为……是)。
2. The question ______ now is where to build the new factory.
A.discusses
B.discussing
C.be discussed
D.being discussed
A B C D
D
[解析] 本题考查非谓语动词的用法。句子的主干是主系表结构:The question is where to build_,因此空格处是主语the question的后置定语,需填入分词。discuss与question之间是动宾关系,即主语与分词之间是被动关系,要用过去分词形式。D项being discussed是现在分词的被动式,与空格后的now时态相呼应,故正确。 A项discusses是谓语动词的第三人称单数形式;B项discussing是现在分词;C项be discussed其实是动词原形,而不是分词,均予以排除。
3. John decided to ______ the present job in order to travel around the world.
5. Computer technology makes it ______ for people to work from home.
A.harmful
B.serious
C.possible
D.difficult
A B C D
C
[解析] 本题考查形容词辨析。动词make后常接双宾语,空格前的it是谓语动词makes的形式宾语,真实宾语为不定式to work from home(在家工作)。C项possible意为“可能的”,填入后表示计算机技术让在家工 作成为“可能”,符合语义逻辑,故正确。 A项harmful“有害的”,B项serious“严肃的”,D项difficult“困难的”代入空格后均不合适,故排除。
6. We are delighted at the news ______ they have started the business cooperation with your company.
7. The computer program is designed for the ______ of easy online reading.
A.experience
B.purpose
C.invitation
D.decision
A B C D
B
[解析] 本题考查固定词组。for the puipose of意为“出于……的目的”,依据句意判断,B项为正确答案。 A项experience“经验,经历”,C项invitation“邀请”,D项decision“决定”都甭符合句子语境。
8. The business talk ______ next week when the CEO of your company comes.
A.was held
B.is being held
C.will be held
D.has been held
A B C D
C
[解析] 本题考查谓语动词时态及形式。句子的状语从句when...的谓语是comes,是一般现在时表将来,根据主句的时间状语next week可知主句的时态应为一般将来时,而谓语动词hold与主语business talk之间为被动关系,C项will be held为一般将来时的被动语态,故正确。 其他三项也都使用了被动语态,但时态与时间状语next week都不符:A项was held是一般过去时;B项is being held为现在进行时;D项has been held为现在完成时。
9. It was so noisy that we found it hard to ______ the conversation.
Section B Directions: There are also 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. Jack (quick) ______ established himself as a powerful member of the new company.
2. When she got back from the South, Su'san had her car (wash) ______ thoroughly.
washed
[解析] 考查使役动词have的用法。由空格前的had her car可知,此处谓语需使用“have sth. +分词/省略to的不 定式”的结构。her car与wash之间是被动关系,故应填入过去分词washed。 使役动词have的用法:①have+宾语+过去分词;②have+宾语+现在分词;③have+宾语+不定式(不带to)。
3. We all like your idea of using the money (build) ______ a primary school.
to build
[解析] 考查use的用法。use...to do sth. 意为“利用……做某事”,因此build要使用不定式to build形式。 use是及物动词,表示“利用,使用时”时,其他用法还有:use sth. for doing sth.(用某物做某事),use sth. as...(用某物当……)
4. She wants to apply for a new job as her present job is not (interest) ______.
interesting
[解析] 考查形容间作表语的用法。空格前的is not表明空格处需填入表语,表语可由形容词、分词、名词等多种词性充当。句子的主语是job,因此空格处应表示“令人有兴趣”之意,故填入形容词interesting。注意interested表示“对……感兴趣的”,一般在人作主语时使用,如:I'm not interested in that job.(我对那份工作不感兴趣。) 表示情感的及物动词如excite使兴奋,discourage(使气馁)disappoint(使失望)encourage(鼓励),inspire(鼓舞)等,可加上后缀-ing或-ed转化为分词(形容词词性),用作表语、定语、状语或补语。现在分词意味,含有“具有令人……的特性”的意思;而过去分词有被动意味,含有“受蓟影响而感到……”的意思。
5. The UK economy last year performed (well) ______ than expected according to the report.
7. No one (allow) ______ to take any reading materials out of the reading room.
is allowed/was allowed
[解析] 考查被动语态用法。此处需要填入谓语动词,主语No one与动词allow“允许”之间是被动关系,故需要填入被动语态。又因为No one作主语,谓语动词需用单数,故答案为is allowed或was allowed。 allow的用法为iallow sb.to do sth.(允许某人做某事),或(sb.)be allowed to do sth.(被允许做某事)。
8. The machine suddenly stopped (work) ______ because of the power cut.
working
[解析] 考查stop的用法。stop后可接动词不定式或-ing形式:stop doing sth.(停止干某事);stop to do sth. (停下来去干另一件事)。根据空格后的because of the power cut(因为停电),可知机器本来是运转的,现在停止了,故需填入动名词working。 下列动词既可跟动词不定式,也可跟动词-ing形式,但含义不同:forget to do sth. (忘记了要干什么);forget doing sth.(忘了干过的事情);regret to do sth.(后悔去做什么事情);regret doing sth.(后悔做了什么事情)。
9. We can not make (nature) ______ resources, but gather them from the earth.
10. The company (employ) ______ more than 50 IT engineers since last year.
has employed
[解析] 考查现在完成时的用法。时间状语since last year(自从去年以来)表明句子需要使用完成时。主语是company,故使用第三人称单数has employed。 现在完成时由“have/has+过去分词”构成,主要有两个含义:①表示动作发生在过去,但与现在的情况有联系,有时无时间状语,有时和一些表示不确定的过去时间状语连用:many times,Just,yet,ever,never,already等。②表示从过去某一时间开始一直延续到现在并还可能继续延续下去的动作,用于延续性动词,且句中常带有表示一段时间的时间状语,如:since+时间点/从句,for two months,so far等。
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. The contract of employment is the agreement made between the employer and the employee. This could be a written agreement or in an oral form. In addition, the contract will also include "custom and practice" agreements. These are how things are usually done in the workplace, for example, if the employer always gives the employees a day's holiday in August. Even though this is not mentioned in the written contract, this will form part of the contract as it is the usual practice. A trade union may have negotiated (谈判达成) an agreement with an employer about conditions at work. The negotiated agreement will often form part of a contract. Some contracts will be illegal if: * the employee gets all or part of their wages in cash; * tax and national insurance contributions (国民保险税) are not paid; and * the employee knows they are getting paid in this way to avoid paying national insurance and tax.
1. According to the first paragraph, a contract of employment ______.
A.must be a written one
B.could be in an oral form
C.should be signed by a trade union
D.ought to be a workplace agreement
A B C D
B
事实细节题。本题询问雇用合同的相关信息。根据第一段第二句提供的信息“这可以是书面协议,也可以是口头形式”可得知,雇用合同可以是口头形式。故B项could be in an oral form(可以是口头形式)正确。 由第一段第二句的could be可知,雇用合同可以是书面形式,也可以是口头形式,故A项的must he(肯定是书面形式)不对;第一段第一句提到雇用合同是雇主与雇员之间的协议,没有提到C项所说的应由工会签署;D项说应该是工作场所的协议,这在第一段也没有提到。
2. "Custom and practice" agreements are usually ______.
A.included in the contract
B.known to employees only
C.always written clearly in the. contract
D.signed by both the employer and a trade union
A B C D
A
事实细节题。本题询问“惯例”协议的细节。第二段第一句提到,合同还会包括“惯例”协议,问题将原文的主动语态转换成被动语态,故A项included in the contract(包括在合同中)正确。 由第一段可知,雇用合同是雇主和雇员之间的协议,第二段第一句说“惯例”协议是合同的一部分,由此可知雇主和雇员都会知道“惯例”协议的内容,故B项(只有雇员知道)与原文信息不符;笫二段最后一句开头提到“尽管在书面合同中没有提到”,由此可知“惯例”协议不一定会在书面合同中写出,故C项(总是在合同中明确写出)不对;第三段开头提到工会可能与雇主达成了某些协议,这也是合同的一部分,但并不能说明雇用合同是由雇主与工会签署的,这份合同应该是雇主与雇员之间签署的,故D项(眭雇主与工会签署)错误。
3. According to the passage, the trade union and employer may negotiate an agreement on ______.
A.paid holidays
B.insurance terms
C.training programs
D.conditions at work
A B C D
D
事实细节题。问题询问工会和雇主可能就什么方面谈判达成了一项协议。第三段第一句提到,工会可能已经与雇主就工作条件(about conditions at work)达成了协议。D项与原文一致,为正确答案。 A项(带薪假期)、B项(保险条款)、C项(培训计划)均未在原文出现。
4. If the employee receives his pay in cash, this practice will be regarded as ______.
A.reasonable
B.practical
C.illegal
D.unfair
A B C D
C
事实细节题。本题询问如果员工收到用现金支付的薪水,这种做法将被视作什么。第四段列举了一些不合法的情况(Some contracts will be illegal),其中第一条提到本题的题干,即员工以现金方式拿到工资,故这种做法是C项illegal(非法的)。 A项reasonable(合理的),B项practical(实用的),D硕unfair(不公平的)在文中均未提及,故可排除。
5. The passage is mainly about ______.
A.the negotiation with an employer
B.the employment contract
C.the working conditions
D.the job responsibilities
A B C D
B
主旨大意题。本题询问这篇文章的主题。文章开头介绍了什么是雇用合同(The contract of employment),即雇主和雇员之间的协议。接着分别具体讲述了雇用合同包括哪些协议,哪些情况是非法的等。故全文的主题是B项the employment contract(雇用合同)。 第三段提到了工会与雇主会就工作条件淡判并达成协议,A项(与雇主的淡判)和C项(工作条件)在该段涉及,但不是全文主要讨论的内容,故不对;D项(岗位职责)在文中没有提到。
Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45. A share house is mon ey-saving. When you share a house, your bills, rent and possibly food costs will be much lower. If the house is already established, you don't have to worry about buying things like a fridge and TV.

D.it prevents conflict
A B C D
B
事实细节题。本题询问根据第一段,合租房子的最主要优势是什么。根据第一段第一句“合租房子节省金钱(money-saving)”,可知B项saves your money(节省金钱)正确。 A项(避免浪费时间)、C项(发展友谊)和D项(防止冲突)在第一段均未提到,因此予以排除。
2. According to the passage, an ideal housemate is a person who is ______.
A.suitable for your character
B.good at doing housework
C.willing to help you
D.easy to talk with
A B C D
A
事实细节题。本题询问一个理想的室友是什么样的人。第一个小标题Choosing good housemates下第一段最后一句提到,仔细想想哪类人适合你的性格(suited to your character)。言下之意是,这类适合自己性格的人是理想的室友,A项suitable for your character(适合你的性格)与之一致,为正确答案。 B项(善于做家务)、c项(愿意帮助你)、D项(容易交谈)在文中都没有提及,故均排除。
3. When you collect the rent from your housemate, you are advised to ______.
A.write down the amount
B.choose a right date
C.demand cash only
D.give a receipt
A B C D
D
事实细节题。本题询问当向室友收租时,建议你要怎么做。第二个小标题Setting some guidelines提出了一些避免与室友冲突的准则,其中第一条提到,付租时索要收据,收租时开具收据。issue意为“开出”之义,D项的give与之同义,故正确。 A项(写下金额)、B项(选择一个合适的日期)、C项(要求只收现金)在文中没有提及,均予以排除。
4. To solve a problem with your housemate, it is better for you to ______.
A.discuss it with the person on the telephone

A B C D
C
事实细节题。本题询问要解决与室友的问题,最好要怎么做。行为准则的最后一条提到,在可能的情况下,面对面沟通处理问题。C项与之一致,talk with him or her表达了原文中的commumcation,故正确。 A项(在电话中与那个人讨论)和D项(先跟自己的父母说)在文中都没有提到;B项(征求朋友或亲戚的意见)在第一个小标题最后一段提到,但文中是就如何选择合租人提的建议,而本题询问如何解决与室友的问题,故答非所闻。
5. The passage is mainly about how to ______.
A.choose a good neighbor
B.look for a new house
C.live in a share house
D.share housework
A B C D
C
主旨大意题。本题询问这篇文章的主旨。文章首先提到合租(A share room)省钱,接着用两个小标题分别阐述如何选择好的合租人,设定一些准则来避免与室友的冲突。综合以上内容,可知本文的主题是如何在合租房居住,故C项live in a share house正确。 A项(选择一个好邻居)、B项(寻找新房子)和D项(分担家务)都未在文中提到,更不是文章主要内容。

Part Ⅳ Translation Directions: This part, numbered 61 to 65, is to test your ability to translate English into Chinese. Each of the four sentences (No.61 to No.64) is followed by four choices of suggested translation marked A, B, C and D. Make the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Write your translaiion of the paragraph (No.65) in the corresponding space on the Translation/Composition Sheet.
1. These programs are important to business success and will also contribute to the community at large. A.这些重要项目都是为了兴办企业的,这也会对社区有很大的促进。 B.这些规划对于商业成功十分重要,并有助于将其成果奉献给社会。 C.这些程序的成功与做生意一样重要,并且有益于扩大社区的规模。 D.这些项目对商业的成功至关重要,还会在总体上对社区做出贡献。
D-B-A-C
[解析] 本句主干为:These programs are important...and will also contribute to...。主语programs意为“项目”。谓语为and连接的两个部分:第一个部分的be important to意为“对……重要的”;第二个部分的 contribute to意为“对……做出贡献”,at large意为“大体上”。D项准确表达了句子结构及词汇。B项的结构正确,但是把program误译成“规划”,把community译为“社会”,漏译了at large。而A项把imporant译成program的定语,business误译成“企业”,前半部分与原文偏差较大。C项错误最多,把program误译成“程序”,be important to误译成“与……一样重要”,business误译成“生意”,success漏译,at large误译成“扩大规模”。
2. Once we get these details in order, we should be ready to present our final report to the president. A.一旦我们把这些细节问题整理好,就应该可以把最终报告呈交给董事长了。 B.一旦将这些具体细节处理妥当,我们就要准备需呈交给董事长的最后报告。 C.一旦我们有条不紊地落实好订货单,就应该去准备呈交董事长的总结报告。 D.一旦收到详细的订单,我们就应着手准备董事长要做的最后的决算报告了。
A-B-C-D
[解析] 本句是主从复合句:once“一旦”引导条件状语从句,其中details意为“细节”,in order意为“整齐,有条理”;主句使用了be ready to do sth.结构,意为“预备做某事”,present意为“呈交”。A项准确表达了句子含义。B项把be ready to误解成“准备”,实际应该是“准备好了”。C、D项把order误译成“订单”,be ready to也犯了跟B项同样的错误,且D项把final report(最终报告)误解成“决算报告”。

B-C-D-A
[解析] 本句的主语为We,谓语为and连接的并列的两个部分:第一部分使用了现在完成进行时have been doing,表示doing business“做生意”的动作从过去某个时间开始一直延续到现在,并且还有可能持续下去:第二部分that引导的从句作hope的宾语,其中offer意为“报价”,make the best offer for us指“给我们最好的报价”。C项把will make...的将来时态误译成现在完成时态“都是……”。D项把doing business误译成“友好往来”,make the best offer误译成“降价供货”。A项把have been doing的时态误译成将来时,漏误了for many years,还 把make the bese offer误译成“以合理的价格”。
