He suffered from_(hungry)答案与解析11painful该句为典型的“主系表”结构,故填形容词作表语。12educate句意:在美国现在越来越多的父母选择在家里教育他们的孩子。我不确定这对孩子的成长是否有好处。educate教育,培养。13out句意:我不明白他为什么误了飞机。他可能是遇上交通阻塞了。figure out“计算出;理解;明白”。14achievements名词作宾语。15upup to“适合,胜任”。句意:苏珊可以接替那个职位吗?对不起。你知道,她没有经验,不能胜任这份工作。16challenge句意:对大学毕

8、,故用belonging to作定语。20hunger名词作宾语。.完形填空One of the founding fathers of the Internet has predicted the end of traditional television.Vint Cerf, who helped to build the Internet while working_21_a researcher in America, said that television was_22_its “iPod moment”In the same way that people now_23_thei

16、动词辨析。根据第一段可知,传统的电视时代即将结束。因此,这里应该是说电视正走向“iPod”时代。通过对四个词语的辨析(achieving取得,获得;approaching走近,靠近; finishing完成; arriving到达)可知,答案为approaching,故选B。23B考查动词辨析。write 写; download下载;read 读; remember记得。通读全文以及对“iPod”为大容量MP3播放器的理解可知,人们把他们喜欢的音乐下载到他们的“iPod”里面。故选B。24D考查介词辨析。由对上句now download their favorite music onto th
17、eir iPod,的理解可知, downloading most of favorite programs_4_their computers.这里应为“onto”,即把体现了前后一致。 即观众很快就会把大多数他们喜爱的节目下载到他们的电脑上。故选D。25A考查形容词。live现场直播的;present目前的,在场的;past过去的;late迟的,晚的。通过后面的like news, sporting events and emergencies可知,这里应该是“现场直播”的意思。而live有“现场直播的”意思,故选A项。26C考查副词。通过对全文的理解以及对it is going to be
18、 almost like the iPod的理解可知,“尽管人们仍需要新闻、体育比赛和紧急事件等的现场直播,但iPod模式将日益兴起”。而greatly“很,非常”;harmfully“有害地”;hopefully“有希望地”,均不符合题意,只有C项increasingly“日益”才符合题意,故选C项。27B考查动词辨析。watch观看,看; look有意识地看;notice注意; see看见,看到。watch“观看,看”之意,相当于look at。通过对词句的理解可知,下载是为了以后观看,而空后的at这个词也给了暗示。故选B项。28A考查名词作定语。mainstream主流的; famous
19、 著名的; important 重要的; wellknown知名的,出名的。Mainstream(主流的)符合本句“尽管电视的需求已经不再是英国的主流活动”。其他选项不符合题意。故选A。29A考查固定词组。sums of表示“许多”之意。由后面的单词“money”可知,前面应用修饰不可数名词的短语。故选A项。30C考查固定搭配。句意:英国广播公司、国际电视台和第四频道在技术上都投入了大量资金,使观众能够观看他们最喜欢的节目。enable sb.to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“使某人能够做某事”。分析可知选C项。31C考查介词辨析。根据句意可知,是在电脑上看人们喜欢的节目。因此选C项。32
20、B考查动词。containing 包含,包纳;including包括(部分与整体);naming命名;calling叫,认为,通电话。依据本段可知,不光是评论家提出了警告,而且也包括一些互联网服务提供商。由此可知答案为including;A项contain为“包含,包纳”,侧重容器的装下或成分上的含有,不符合题意;而C、D两项不符合文意,故选B项。33D考查固定搭配。under the stress of为 “在压力下”。此句意思为“在几百万人同一时间下载节目的压力下”,所以只有D项符合题意,故选D项。34A考查动词辨析。句意:但是瑟夫先生驳斥了这些警告,说批评家早在20年前就预言,当全世界的
21、人们开始大量使用网络时,网络将会崩溃。collapse崩溃;fall 下落,摔倒; rush 突袭,猛冲;jump跳过,快速移动。由本段的上一句可知,这里应为“collapse”,即“崩溃”。故选A项。35B考查动词辨析。develop“发展”; increase“增加,增长,增大(数目、数量、体积等)”; enhance“提高,提升”;常用于身份、声望等;enlarge“变大,扩大”。 由a million times可知,这里应为“增长了多少倍”,分析选项可知B项符合题意,故选B项。36B考查短语辨析。close to靠近,接近; far from远离,远非,不是; far away离远;
22、next to接近,在近旁。通过对上文以及本句的理解可知,我们远没用尽这些容量。故选B项。37C考查形容词辨析。understandable意思为“可理解的”;miserable为“可怜的,不愉快的”;surprising为“令人惊奇的”;imaginable为“可想象的”。由“when they see huge amounts of information being moved around online在过去的30年里,它已经增长了一百万倍我们远远没有耗尽容量,”他说。“当他们看到大量的信息在网络上流动时,这种担心是可以理解的。”分析选项可知,这里选understandable比较符合
23、文意。故选C项。38D考查动词短语辨析。set out“陈述,展示,宣布”;take out“切除,拔出”;find out“找出,查明”;turn out“结果是。证明是,最终是”。句意:他展示了他对互联网未来的憧憬,。通过his vision for the future of the Internet理解,可知为setting out。故选D项。39A考查固定搭配。句意:展示了自己对互联网未来的憧憬,他希望能尽可能多地接触互联网。根据句意可知为“尽可能多的人”,people为可数名词的复数形式,因此要用many,故选A。40A考查固定搭配。句意:我希望地球上的每个人都能够连接到互联网,
24、be able to do sth.是固定搭配,为“有能力做”,其他三项(easy容易的;happy快乐的,高兴的;willing愿意的)不符合文意,故选A项。.阅读理解Frequently Asked QuestionsWill I receive a new or used textbook?You may receive a new or a used textbook,based on availability.All used textbooks will be in acceptable rental condition,as determined by us.If you are

35、ets and smiled at the shop assistant.The shop assistant was surprised.He _47_ (expect) that the boy would gladly take the sweets from the bottle. Full of _48_ (curious), he said again, “Take the sweets.” Now the mother also heard that and said,“Take the sweets, dear. ”Yet the boy didnt take.The shop
36、 assistant took the sweets and gave _49_ to the child.The child was happy _50_ (get) two hands full of sweets.After returning home,the mother asked the boy, “Could you tell me _51_ you didnt take the sweets when the shop assistant told you to?”The boy replied, “Simple! My hands are very small and _5
37、2_ I take the sweets,I can only take a few.But now you see when uncle gave me sweets with his big hand,I got a lot _53_ (many)!” Sometimes your kids are much cleverer than you might think.答案与解析本文为记叙文。不要低估了你家小孩的智商,有时他们比你想象的要聪明得多。44Looking考查非谓语动词。Looking at the small cute child是现在分词短语作状语,逻辑主语the shop
38、assistant与动作look之间是主动关系。45that/which考查定语从句。that/which contained lots of delicious sweets是定语从句,修饰先行词bottle,关系代词that或which在从句中作主语。46with考查介词。with his hands in his pockets是“with复合宾语”结构,在句中作状语。47had expected考查动词的时态。表示过去未曾实现的想法、打算、企图时,常用过去完成时。48curiosity考查词形转换。空格中所填单词在句中作介词of的宾语,故用curious的名词形式curiosity。49them考查代词。them此处指代前面提到的the sweets。50to get考查非谓语动词。此处用不定式短语作原因状语。51why考查名词性从句。妈妈是问孩子当初为什么不拿糖果,故用why引导宾语从句。52if考查状语从句。孩子是说,自己手小,如果拿糖果,只能拿很少,故用if引导条件状语从句。53more考查比较级。a lot与比较级连用,表示程度,意思是“比得多”。
