23、e time No.16 reaches So UK Road, it is always full, so it is of no use for me. This leaves No.49 which sometimes has _ seats on it.The timetable states that there are buses from So UK Road to the Airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?
24、The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing
25、passengers. Yesterday, I was first to get off the bus when it reached the Airport, I counted the other passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them.Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Maximum speed: 50 m. p. h.” The distance from So UK Road to the Airport is 10 miles.
26、 Saturday morning a 49 bus traveled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of 60 m. p. h. At times it must have done at least 80 or even 90 m. p. h.It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers.

28、t do you think the bus companies respond to the complaints?_5. Translate the underlined sentence in the passage into Chinese._答案解析.单项填空1A2A考查情态动词的被动语态。根据前一分句中No.is allowed.可知要用must (必须)，带有强制意味。句意为：十二岁以下的儿童必须在家长的陪同下方可靠近湖边。3C考查非谓语动词。to be left alone是不定式的被动式作宾语。leave.alone让独自呆着。句意为：那位影星要求别人不要打扰他，但记者还是他
29、走到哪儿就跟到哪儿。4A考查名词辨析。in explanation of对作出解释。5A考查时态和be to do sth.。句意为：这位作家的这部小说卖得很好，但是在五年前，没有人会料到他在文学界会起那么大的作用。此句用be to do sth.表示注定要发生的事。6D考查介词辨析。句意为：足球比赛的结果是二比二，双方都感到满意。to the satisfaction of sb.使某人满意的是。7B考查代词。由will need a lot of work before they can move in可知，此空需要代词来代替a new house。it和one都可以代替前文提到的单数可数
30、名词，但it代替特定之物，one泛指同类中的某一个。8B考查动词不定式。to try to persuade him to stay是不定式短语作目的状语。we could后省略了动词原形do。9A考查动词词组的辨析。let sb.down令某人失望。10B在英国年龄是避讳的话题，询问会令人尴尬。embarrassed尴尬的，困窘的，符合题意。absurd荒唐的，可笑的，satisfied满意的，awful糟糕的，可怕的。11C本题中过去分词短语accompanied by heavy rain作定语修饰winds，accompany意为“伴随、陪伴”，符合语境。12C本题主要考查it作形式宾
31、语的句型。动词love，like，hate，dislike，enjoy，prefer，appreciate等词后一般不能直接跟句子，而应在句子前面加it，然后再接when或if所引导的句子。再如：I hate it when people speak with their mouths full.13C14. B15. A16. C17. CA【答案及解析】1. 选B。从句子It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family,可知，当房子着火后，最重要的是你要知道the way
32、s to escape the fire(逃生方式)，故答案选B。2. 选C。在短文的第2段说到from the lower floors of building escaping through windows is possible。故选C。3. 选D。在短文中特别强调在大火发生时，人们可以从 stairways 和 fire escapes逃生, but not lifts(但不能从电梯)，因为那是相当危险的。4. 选A。在短文的第5段提到了可keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air可知。5. 选B。通读全
33、文后，短文的大意很明显，在着火的大楼中自救的方法应是短文的主题，故选B。B【答案及解析】1. 选C。文章第5段提到the Browns decided to get a small dog 以及最后一段动物医生说：Shadow has had all of her shots(预防针). She will be healthy.我们可以知道Shadow是一只健康的小狗。答案选C。2. 选B。由第3段句子Lets go to the animal shelter. Many pets there need homes.可知，shelter是a place to keep homeless ani
34、mals(无家可归的动物们的避难所)。3. 选D。第4段内容告诉我们：医生想为宠物们找个好家，他想知道Brown夫妇是否能照顾好宠物，否则医生也不放心把宠物交给他们的。4. 选B。由第5段的句子A small dog would bark(吠) and warm them if someone tried to break into their house. 我们可知，一只小狗就可以帮他们看家了。故答案选B。5. 选A。因为Shadow has had all of her shots，它已经打过所有的预防针了，所以Shadow是不会容易得病的。答案与技巧点拨：1主旨概括题作此类题目时，首先通
35、读全文，通过阅读多数知道作者写这篇文章的真正目的是什么，关键词往往出现在文章的开头或结尾，也有部分文章需要我们通读全文后才能的出结论。上文中的第1小题用英语写出文章的题目，属主旨概括题。这篇文章主要通过说明公交公司的情况：经常没座，不按时间，到站不停，超载超速，来表达自己内心的抱怨和不满。因此文章的题目应是Complaints of the passenger.2英文释义题做此类题目时一定要分析所给句子的结构、含义、实际用意，在文章中找句子时一定要通读上下文，切不可段章取意。上文中的第2小题是给出一个句子，要求从原文中找出一个句子，意思与此句相同或相近。It is obvious that o
36、ur bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers.两句都说明了公交公司不把规章制度和乘客放在第一位。3完成句子此类题要求我们首先对整篇文章整体理解，对上下文进行推敲，对文中故事的情节或作者的思路进行预测，然后用最简练的几个单词把意思表达出来，出题者往往把那些能上下连贯融会贯通的句子弄到此处，我们应时刻把握作者的思路，不能偏离主题。上文中的第3小题是让考生用适当的词、短语或句子填空，难度较大，不易得分。这个空出现在第一段，讲述了16号车常满座，所以只能
37、坐49号，这一辆有时会有空座。所以应填empty.4开放性试题此类题要求学生针对文章的内容或作者的观点进行评价或发表自己的见解，做题时，一定要就文章的内容或作者的观点发表积极的意见，表达应准确无误，语言规范，切忌出现语法错误和表达不清。上文中说明由于工作中的失误，造成了乘客的不满，所以要令乘客满意必须从抱怨的内容着手进行改进和调整。参考答案可为：The bus companies will change the timetable of the route, make the drivers stop at every stop if it is not full, and make sure the speed will be limited to 50 miles per hour.5翻译题要求同学们翻译的句子往往是文中的长句、难句，或者关键句，或者包括一些特定习语的句子，句子结构往往较为复杂。因此我们在翻译之前一定要整体理解，分析句子的结构，并通过句子所在的情景弄清楚句子的意思，然后用通顺的汉语进行表达。上文的第5小题为强调句，强调原因状语why。所以该题可译为：为什么当我站在站台上时，那个还没有装满乘客的公共汽车却不理我扬长而去？
