19、 if she is 80,her birthday is always the 39th.If she is in her thirties,her birthday will be the 29th.And in her twenties,it is the 19th.They usually celebrate their “real” birthday only when they are below 20.This shows that American women,especially older women,are very sensitive about their ages.

23、 see me whenever .A.you are convenientB.you will be convenientC.it is convenient to youD.it will be convenient to you解析convenient作表语不能用人作主语，故排除A、B两项；在时间状语从句中，应使用一般现在时代替将来时，D项也不可选。答案C23Can I help you?I want to buy a blue tie to my shirt.A.fitB.matchC.suitD.be fit for解析A选项fit多用来指大小、形状适合，而C项多指合乎需要、口味、性
24、格、条件、地位等，根据句意可知“我想买一条蓝色领带来配我的衬衣”，是指色调方面的搭配。答案B24On the notes proved to be forgeries.A.inspectB.inspectionC.inspectorD.inspecting解析介词on可以表示“在的时候，一就”，其后跟名词、代词或动名词来作介词宾语，故排除A项，根据句意排除C选项，inspect是一个及物动词，若选D项则缺少动词宾语，故答案选B。答案B25Suddenly I heard a voice of my friend Tom.A.similarB.sameC.familiarD.strange解析本

27、eD.when;then解析第一个空填since构成Its.(时间)+since.结构，表示“自从以来，已有时间了”，第二空填before，意思是“我们要过很长一段时间才能再次见面，太遗憾了”。答案C29Mr Smith is a teacher,he is also our good friend.A.other thanB.rather thanC.more thanD.less than解析本题考查than构成的几个短语。other than意为“不同于，非，除了（=but,except）”，rather than意为“而非，而不”，常用于平行结构中，less than意为“少于”，而m
28、ore than+名词在本句中意为“不仅仅，不只”。故答案选C。答案C30Since you have made up your mind,just go ahead.We will you.A.stand forB.stand byC.stand outD.stand off解析本题考查由stand所构成的短语。stand for意为“代表，代替，象征”，stand by意为“支持，站在一边”，stand out意为“杰出，显眼，引人注目”，stand off意为“远离，避开”。答案B31He was fired his carelessness and laziness.A.because
29、 ofB.becauseC.thanks toD.since解析首先根据后边的名词carelessness和laziness排除B、D选项（because和since表原因时用作连词，引导原因状语从句）；because of表原因意为“因为，由于”，thanks to意为“多亏了，幸亏”，故答案选A。答案A32Id like to invite you to a concert this evening.Thank you,but Ill be free Im not sure at that moment.A.whileB.ifC.whenD.whether解析本句的正常语序为“but Im
30、 not sure whether Ill be free at that moment.”意为“我不能确定到时是否有空”。whether引导宾语从句，跟在作表语的形容词后作宾语。答案D33(2004年全国，31)Reading is an experience quite different from watching TV;there are pictures in your mind instead of before your eyes.A.to formB.formC.formingD.having formed解析现在分词作定语表示同时发生的动作。一面读书，一面在脑海里形成画面。不

32、t;toC.What;forD.That;for解析What you have done是主语从句，what作done的宾语；do harm to sb./sth.是固定搭配。答案B第二节:完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面的短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。As a newcomer to the production of a Night of the Stars movie,fears find an extensive breeding ground.36 if nobody likes it?In spite

54、abulary,therefore,is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks.There are relatively few words that we learn permanently(永久地) by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word lists.However,even those extra few are of value,and no one will make a mistake by working on dev
55、eloping a larger vocabulary.Here are some suggestions of how to do it.Read plenty of good books.When you come across a new word,or a new meaning of an old word,stop and see if you can understand it from its context.If you cant,and if you can manage without interrupting the thought of the book too mu
56、ch,look it up in a dictionary or ask somebody and then repeat its meaning to yourself a couple of times.If you are really conscientious(认真的),write the word and its meaning in a personal vocabulary listpreferably using it in a sentence,or you can keep a special vocabulary notebook.Go over the list fr
57、om time to time.Further,try to use the new word in writing or conversation a few times over the next several days.Listen to good talks and be alert to new words you hear or to new meanings of words you already know.Then treat them just as you treat the new words you read.Learn and be alert to the pa
58、rts of words:prefixes,suffixes and roots.Knowing them enables you to make intelligent guesses about the meanings of words.If you are studying a foreign language,be alert to words in that language which relate to words in English.English has inherited(继承) or borrowed much of its vocabulary of 500 000

62、 B、C、D三项都属于the parts of words。答案 ACThere is no doubt that adults,and even highly educated adults,vary greatly in the speed and efficiency(效率) of their reading.Some proceed very slowly throughout;others dash along too quickly and then have to regress(退回).Poor readers in particular may lack the abilit
63、y to vary their manner of reading according to the type of reading matter and to their intentions in reading it.A good reader can move at a great speed through the text of a novel or similar light reading matter.He may be able to skim a page,picking up a word or two here and there,and gain a general
64、 idea of what the text is about without really reading it.In reading more difficult material,with the intention of taking in the whole of it,he will proceed more slowly,but even then he will vary his pace,concentrating(集中) on the key words and passages,perhaps rereading them several times and pass m
65、ore quickly over the remainder.A less efficient reader tends to maintain the same speed whatever the material he reads.Therefore,even light reading matter gives him little pleasure because he reads so slowly.But this pace may be too fast for really difficult material which requires special concentra
66、tion at difficult points.A type of reading which needs careful attention to detail is proofreading(校对),in which the reader,in order to detect misprints in a sample print,has to notice not so much the meaning of what he reads as the exact shape and order of letters and words in the text.This is extre
67、mely difficult for most people,since they are used to ignoring such details.In fact,considerable practice is required to practise this task efficiently and it can be done only by reading very slowly,and by paying comparatively little attention to the general meaning of the text.64If you are proofrea
68、ding some material,you .A.get nothing of the meaning of the textB.pay little attention to the printingC.get a full understanding of the textD.care much about the spelling of the words解析 细节理解题。第二段对校对工作作了说明，D项意为“关注单词的拼写”，与文中“notice.the exact shape and order of letters and words”相符。答案 D65The last two s
69、entences of the first paragraph mean that .A.a reading speed too slow for a difficult book is just right for a non-serious oneB.a reading speed too slow for a nonserious book may be too fast for a difficult oneC.a reading speed too fast for difficult material is just right for a non-serious bookD.a
70、reading speed too slow for a nonserious book is also too slow for a difficult one解析 推理判断题。这两句话意思是“（因为阅读速度太慢）即使是轻松读物，他也很难从中得到乐趣。但这样的速度相对于难的文章又太快了。因为这种文章需要在难点上特别注意”。据此意推断B项正确。答案 B66Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A.Reading and ListeningB.Difference between Highly Educated a
71、nd Poorly EducatedC.How to Practise Reading SkillD.Difference in the Speed and Efficiency of Reading解析 主旨大意题。文章主要讨论了不同人的阅读速度与效率。答案 DDWhen Charles Stratton was five,he stopped growing.His mother took him to see the famous showman,P.T.Barnum.Mr Barnum thought a small person would be the perfect additi

76、t.Their wedding,which took place during the Civil War,provided a welcome escape from the sad problems of war.Not willing to let this bit of sunshine fade,communities throughout the country sponsored(发起) “Tom Thumb” weddings.In these weddings,small boys and girls,all dressed up,went through marriage
77、ceremony for fun.67“Talk of the town” means .A.it was in the newspaperB.people spread bad rumors about itC.it was the most popular happeningsD.it was discussed in a city meeting解析词义推测题。从文中可知，这句话指两个小矮人的结婚典礼成为人们奔走相告的新闻。“Talk of the town”意为“街头巷尾的话题”。答案C68What does the author think about Toms wedding?A.
78、It helped people cheer up in a dark time.B.People gave it too much of their attention.C.It was funny and ridiculous.D.Tom and Lavinia were stupid.解析推理判断题。从短文最后一段可知，他们的婚礼是在美国南北战争期间举行的，在这个历史背景下，这个婚礼给人们带来了喜悦，摆脱了战争的阴影。答案A69Which of the following is the best clue to the fact that Tom was smart?A.He becam
79、e a billionaire at twentyfive.B.He learned how to sing,dance and act at a very young age.C.He met with President Lincoln during his honeymoon.D.He married a schoolteacher.解析推理判断题。从第二段可知Tom非常聪明，他学会了唱歌、跳舞、表演及讲笑话，由此开始了辉煌的人生。答案B70Tom would dance on a wooden plate held by a person who was eight feet tall
80、 because .A.the wooden plate would make it sound as if Tom was dancingB.it made Tom look tallerC.the eightfoottall man was the only tall person Tom trustedD.the difference between them would make Tom look even smaller解析细节理解题。Tom只有2英尺高，与一个8英尺高的人同台表演，形成鲜明对比，使演出更加显得滑稽可笑。答案D71What is the main idea of th
81、e last paragraph?A.Weddings always make people feel full of sunshine.B.People are always disappointed during war time.C.Entertainment can serve an important purpose.D.People should be married when they are small children.解析主旨大意题。最后一段说明，尽管战争给人们带来了许多苦难与不愉快，但是Tom的表演给人们带来了快乐，因此他的婚礼隆重，产生了意想不到的效果。答案CEWe o
