40、，是说天气多变，故选C项。37C“如果他们是农民、渔民或海员”，据文意选C项。38D根据这几类人的特点可知，他们需要提前了解天气的变化。39B句意：太空科学家和飞行员尤其需要气象信息。generally大概地，一般地；especially特别地，尤其；usually通常地；seldom很少。故选B项。40A41Cfrom表示时间时，强调时间的起点，意为“从时候开始”；since表示“自从以来”，着重于过去到现在的一段时间；from只作介词，用于现在、过去和将来时态；而since作介词、连词都行，通常用于完成时态；by表时间，指“不迟于，在(来时)前”；after表时间时，指过去一段时间之后。由
41、句意及时态可知，应选C项。42B考查动词辨析。notice注意到；observe观察；see看见；discover发现。由文章可知B项正确。43Dweather predictions为固定搭配，“天气预报”。44Bstudy研究。45C名词词义辨析。way方法，途径；assistant助手，助理；instrument器具，仪器，常指科学上精密操作过程中所需的工具；equipment为不可数名词，不能加复数形式。故选C项。46Ameasure测量；make制作；find发现；discover发现。只有A项符合文意。47D上文已说明“他们用仪器测定风速和方向”，故此处不必再预测暴风的“speed
42、和direction”，只是由此预计出暴风的路径。48C由文意知此处为“increase their accuracy”，提高精确度。49A由文意知此处为“必要的信息”。50A由下文知此处指人，故用pilot。51B由下一句“a weather bureau can.”可知选B项。can指一个人有能力或条件许可。52D由下文“a river may overflow its banks many miles away”知是“大雨”。53A此处是递进，在上文predict the day的基础上更进一步，“甚至能够预测时间”，故用even。54B由上文可知此处应为“direction”，方向。5
43、5D此处prepare for sth.为做准备，prepare sth.准备某事物，由句意知，it指代storm，应是人们为暴风雨做准备，故选D项。第三部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。A Five people are at our table, including myself.

61、nd to determine where we “fit” in society. As we go about our everyday lives, we mentally attempt to place people in terms of their statuses. For example, we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or a librarian, whether the telephone caller is a friend or a salesman, whether the u
62、nfamiliar person on our property(房产) is a thief or a meter reader, and so on. The statuses we assume often vary with the people we meet, and change throughout life. Most of us can, at very high speed, assume the statuses that various situations require. Much of social interaction consists of identif
63、ying and selecting among appropriate statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us. This means that we fit our actions to those of other people, based on a constant mental process of assessment and understanding although some of us find the task more difficult than ot
64、hers; most of us perform it rather effortlessly. A status has been compared to readymade clothes. Within certain limits the buyer can choose style and material. But an American is not free to choose the clothes of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince. We must choose from among the clothing pr
65、esented by our society. Further more, our choice is limited to a size that will fit, as well as by our pocketbook. Having made a choice within these limits we can have certain changes made, but apart from minor adjustments, we tend to be limited to what the stores have on their shelves. Statuses too
66、 come readymade, and the range of choice among them is limited.64The writer tells us that statuses can help us _.A. determine whether a person is fit for a certain jobB. behave appropriately in relation to other peopleC. protect ourselves in unfamiliar situationsD. make friends with other people答案与解
67、析：B从文章第二段可知，很多社会交流包括对合适的身份进行鉴别和选择，并允许假定他们的身份与我们有关系，这就意味着我们通过不断地头脑估计过程，让我们的行为适合于别人的行为。选B项，意为相对于别人来说行为恰当。65According to the writer, people often assume different statuses _.A. in order to identify themselves with othersB. as their mental processes changeC. in order to better identify othersD. as the s
68、ituation changes答案与解析：D从第二段第二句可知，我们中大多数人能够随着不同的情况需要快速地假定不同的身份。66In the last sentence of the second paragraph, “it” refers to _.A. constant mental processB. selecting ones own statusesC. identification of other peoples statusesD. fitting our actions to those of other people appropriately答案与解析：D虽然我们当中
69、有些人会发现这个任务(做起来)难于别人，这个任务是基于不断的思维假设和理解来采用适合于他人的行为。我们当中的大部分表现起来颇为容易，it指上文提到的用调整行为与他们相符。67By saying that “an American is not free to choose the clothes of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince” in Paragraph 3, the writer means _.A. our choice of statuses is limitedB. readymade clothes may need al
70、terationsC. statuses come readymade just like clothesD. different people have different styles of clothes答案与解析：A第三段第四句作者认为我们必须从社会呈献给我们的衣服中选择，不能越过这个范围，故选A项。D Managers of most businesses want high profits in order to pay high dividends(红利) to their investors. For this reason, they aim to keep costs as
71、 low as possible. They also want to set high prices to gain high returns. But competition within the industry often prevents them from doing so. Generally, a business will not increase the price of its output if its competitors will not increase their prices. If a business sets its prices higher tha
72、n those of its competitors, many of its customers will buy the output of its competitors. An important decision managers make is their choice of the inputmix in what combination of capital(资本), labor, and raw materials to use in production. The goal is to keep production costs as low as possible. If
73、 labor costs are high, for example, a firm may spend money in automatic machinery so that fewer workers are needed to complete the same task. If labor is cheap, the company may decide to employ extra workers instead of buying a machine to do the job. The combination of inputs that permits a firm to
74、produce its goods or services at the lowest possible cost without reducing quality is called the_most_productive_inputmix. The goal of keeping production costs low also affects a companys choice of location. The resources an industry needs and the customers it serves are rarely close to each other.
75、As a result, a business must transport inputs, outputs, or both. A business also tries to keep transportation costs as low as possible. Transportation costs are based on weight as well as on distance. The location a company selects may thus depend on whether the companys product is heavier or lighte
76、r than the materials used to make it. The soft drink industry, which adds water to other ingredients to make its products, is an example of an industry that produces weightgaining products. Soft drink companies choose locations near their customers. The paper industry is an example of industries tha
77、t produce weightlosing products. Many such industries are near sources of raw materials.68What do businesses choose to do about the prices of their products in competition?A. To set higher prices.B. To leave the prices unchanged.C. To offer lower prices.D. To keep the prices adjustable.答案与解析：D细节理解题。
78、由文章首段可知D项正确，其他三个选项都很片面。69The underlined phrase “the most productive inputmix” means mixing inputs _.A. with goods or services sold at the lowest possible pricesB. by selling goods or services at the lowest possible pricesC. to produce goods or services at the lowest possible costD. to produce qualit
79、y goods or services at the lowest possible cost答案与解析：D含义猜测题。由文章第二段最后一个句子中修饰主语的定语从句“that permits a firm to.without reducing quality”可知，选项D正确。70Why is a company usually very careful about choosing its location?A. Because the materials it needs are rather far away.B. Because the customers it serves are
80、 not so close.C. Because transportation costs and the distance are closely related.D. Because both production and transportation costs are very high.答案与解析：C细节理解题。由文章第四段的前两句可知C项正确。第二节七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 _71_ You probably think you will never be a top student
