    B

    Computer programmer David Jones earns ¥35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card (信用卡). Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18. The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David’s firm releases (推出) two new games for the fast throwing computer market each month.

    But David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage (抵押贷款), or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,” he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.

    “Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.” David added: “I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement (退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”

    60. In what way is David different from people of his age?

    A. He often goes out with friends.B. He lives with his mother.

    C. He has a handsome income. D. He graduated with six O-levels.

    本题为阅读理解题,根据下文内容的转折,这里应该是“很少用药”。
    本题语法题,只有expensive的最高级前用the most。
    本题是词组辫析。start“开始”。swing“摇摆”。show“展示”。spread“传播,散布”。
    本题为阅读理解题,根据下文内容,这里应是“委员会成员嫉妒他的成功”。
    本题为阅读理解题,与上半句的“朋友”相对,这里是“对手、敌人”。
    本题为阅读理解题,根据上文应是表示“留下的原因”。
    本题为语法词汇题。affection名词,“喜爱”;affect动词,“影响”;effect名词,“影响”;effective形容词,“有效的”。
    prove“证明”; correct“改正”; create“创造”; prepare“准备”。
    根据上下文这里应是“疼痛”的意思。pain“疼”; trouble"麻烦”; destruction “破坏”; damage“损伤”。
    awful“极糟糕的”; interesting“有趣的”; successful“成功的”; dangerous“危险的”。
    根据上下文,这里是“一件震惊的事”,因此是shock。
    根据下文,妻子应该感到“焦虑”。
    根据上文,安德鲁做实验,因此应该是“实验室”。
    根据上下文背景,此处的闯入者应是“拒绝听”。
    本题为理解题。上句说到安德鲁生气地接电话,在听到是欧文后应该是语气有所转变。

    Too Late to Regret It
    When I was a junior,I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn't tall or good-looking,but he was very nice,attractive and athletic.He had something that I admired very much .He was natural,warm,and sincere.
    I disregarded(不顾)my parents' disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from my dorm every morning,and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus , or sunbathe(晒太阳)on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm .He came from a poor family,but in order to make me happy,he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me .Our fellow students looked up to him as a role model, and the girls envied(妒忌)me. He wasn't a local , but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.
    However,when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation,people began giving me a lot of pressure,saying that a pretty,intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with .This was also what my family thought.He spent the summer in his hometown,so I was all by myself. When he got back,I began finding faults with him.But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant thoughts away .However,I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.
    I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well.With my good performance at school,I also got admission to graduate school at one of China's best universities.He,on the oth- er hand,did not do so well at school or at work .I had to worry about his living expenses,job and scores。
    Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him.Then we had a quarrel last June .He was in great pain,and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away.
    Graduation time was drawing near. He said that he couldn't put up with me anymore,and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown.I was shocked and looked at him in despair. True love happens only once,but I found it out too late.

    Why did he leave her?
    A: Because he could no longer bear her.
    B: Because he hated her.
    C: Because his parents needed taking care of.
    D: Because he wasn't a local.

    答案:A
    解析:
    本题问“什么时候作者爱上了这个男孩?”文章第一段和第二段提到了作者爱上男孩的时间,即:大学三年级的时候。其他时间与事实不一致。


    本题问“他做了什么使她高兴?”本题是细节题。文章第二段中提到“为了要使我快乐,他向他的朋友借钱为我买礼物并请我吃饭。”


    本题问“谁建议她与他分手?”文章第五段第一句提到“几乎我所有的同事和朋友劝告我和他分手。”因此选项C“她的同事和朋友”符合题意。


    本题问“为什么他离开了她?”文章最后一段提到“他说他无法忍受我,他说他想要回家乡。”显然这是原因所在。所以选项A“他再也无法忍受了”符合题意。


    本题问“当得知他将离开她时,她……”。文章最后一段提到“我感到吃惊,我意识到真正的爱只发生一次,但我发现的已经太晚。”由此可见,作者汁这件事情的感觉是痛苦的。因此选项D“非常痛苦”符合题意。

    A Pay Rise or Not?
    “Unless I get a rise.I'11 have a talk with the boss, Henry Manley,”George Strong said to himself. George liked his job and he liked the town he lived in,but his wife kept telling him that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family.That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham,a nearby city about 50 miles away.He had been offered a job in a factory there,and the pay was far better.
    George lived in Wyeford,a medium-sized town .He really liked the place and didn't like the idea of moving somewhere else,but if he took the job in Birmingham,he would have to move his family there.
    Henry Manley was the manager of a small company manufacturing electric motors.The corn-pany was in deep trouble because,among other reasons,the Japanese were selling such things at very low prices. As a result,Manley had to cut his own prices and profits as well. Otherwise he would not get any orders at all .Even then,orders were still not coming in fast enough,so that there was no money for raises(加工资)for his workers. Somehow ,he had to struggle along and keep his best workers as well.He sighed.Just then the phone rang.
    His secretary told him that George Strong wanted to see him as soon as possible.Manley sighed again.He could guess what it was about.George Strong was a very young engineer. The company had no future unless it could attract and keep men like him.Manley rubbed his forehead (前额);his problems seemed endless.

    答案:C
    解析:
    文章第三段中“Reagan also shared that his mother had passed away and he was left to carefor his two younger sisters.”可知,里根不得不找工作照顾他的家庭。故选C。

    A Pay Rise or Not?
    “Unless I get a rise.I'11 have a talk with the boss, Henry Manley,”George Strong said to himself. George liked his job and he liked the town he lived in,but his wife kept telling him that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family.That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham,a nearby city about 50 miles away.He had been offered a job in a factory there,and the pay was far better.
    George lived in Wyeford,a medium-sized town .He really liked the place and didn't like the idea of moving somewhere else,but if he took the job in Birmingham,he would have to move his family there.
    Henry Manley was the manager of a small company manufacturing electric motors.The corn-pany was in deep trouble because,among other reasons,the Japanese were selling such things at very low prices. As a result,Manley had to cut his own prices and profits as well. Otherwise he would not get any orders at all .Even then,orders were still not coming in fast enough,so that there was no money for raises(加工资)for his workers. Somehow ,he had to struggle along and keep his best workers as well.He sighed.Just then the phone rang.
    His secretary told him that George Strong wanted to see him as soon as possible.Manley sighed again.He could guess what it was about.George Strong was a very young engineer. The company had no future unless it could attract and keep men like him.Manley rubbed his forehead (前额);his problems seemed endless.

    Henry Manley was already deeply in debt.
    A: Right
    B: Wrong
    C: Not mentioned

    答案:C
    解析:
    题目说的是:Henry Manley早已负债累累。第三段说到公司困难重重,Manley不得不降低产品价格和减少利润。但文章只是说Manley利润减少,并没提到其负债。C正确:
    题目说的是:在伯明翰提供给George Strong的工作报酬要好。第一段最后一句话是这么说的:那儿的一家工厂给他提供了一份工作,报酬要好得多。
    题目说的是:George Strong接受在伯明翰的那份工作的话,他将不得不把他的家留在Wyeford。第二段是这么说的:……如果他接受在伯明翰的那份工作,他将不得不把他的家搬到那里。
    题目说的是:Henry Manley的公司困难重重。第三段的第二句话是这么说的:“The company was in deep trouble because…”。
    题目说的是:Henry Manley的公司获得的利润足以给工人增加工资。第三段的倒数第四句是这么说的:……没有钱给他的工人加工资。
    题目说的是:Henry Manley压根儿不知道George Strong为什么要见他。最后一段的第三句是这么说的:他能猜到George Strong找他的原因。
    题目说的是:George Strong是Henry Manley公司最好的工程师。最后一段是这么说的:George Strong是一个很年轻的工程师。公司除非把像他这样的人留住,否则是没有前途的。这些信息不足以推出“他是一个Henry Manley公司最好的工程师。”

    51._________
    A: taken
    B: made
    C: put
    D: done

    答案:B
    解析:
    固定搭配make fortune,意为“制造财富,发财”,因此选B。其他三项均不合适。


    这里应该是一个由what引导的从句为主语的句子,表示“使得 Ben的故事更引人注意的是……”,其他三项均无法引导该从句。


    根据句意,是Ben被告知,因此选项told为正确答案。said意为“被说”,suggested 意为“被建议”,reported意为“被报道”,均不合句意。


    联系上下文,了解到本句表达的是Ben曾被他的初中教师告知他将永远不能正确读写,而不是完全无法读写,因此properly才符合句意。absolutely表示“完全地,绝对地”,totally表示“完全地”,thoroughly表示“彻底地,完全地”,均不合句意。


    根据句意,很容易了解Ben是要证明他们对他的判断错了,而不是说他们的判断是假的、不真实的,或者不公平的,所以wrong是正确答案。


    固定搭配。be used to意为“被用来做”。因此A项正确。


    根据句意,易知文中要表达的是“虽然他不能阅读使用指南”,因此unable为正确答案。impossible表示“不可能的”,incapable表示“无能力的”,一般形容不能胜任的; disabled表示“有残缺的”。


    根据句意,易知文中要表达的是在爸爸的鼓励下。若用promised则表示在爸爸的承诺下,invited则是在爸爸的邀请下,animated表示“有生气的”,均不符合句意,因此 encouraged为正确答案。


    根据句意,“ Ben很快就开始以自己的知识和能力收费——每小时10英镑”,只有 charge符合句意。


    联系上下文,根据句意, Ben创建了自己的公司——Quad Computer,固定搭配set up 表示“创建”,其他三项均不合适,所以选D。


    根据句意,Ben把所有的精力投入到公司经营当中,根据后面的介词to可知,只有 devote是正确答案。


    词组搭配。a couple of表示“一些”, few一般形容只需少量的几个,little形容不可数名词,文中要表达的是公司已经发展壮大,Ben需要雇用一些员工,因此只有couple符合句意。


    文中要表达的是雇用一些员工,使公司发展壮大。因此B项正确。


    固定搭配。overcome challenge,表示“克服困难,克服挑战”,因此选A。 overlook表示“不注意,忽视”, overtake表示“赶上”,overdo表示“把……做得过分”。


    根据句意,“价值2500万英镑的交易”,显然worth是正确答案。valuable表示“珍贵的,值钱的”, estimated表示“估计,预算”,priced表示“给……定价,附有定价的”。
