93、 a lot of self-respect,65. the employers need to care about their temperaments(性情) and ways of communication.答案与解析【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了90后找工作时所呈现的特点。56.to break考查不定式。该句使用句型“it is common for sb to do sth”,意为“是很常见的”,其中it作形式主语,真正的主语是不定式复合结构,故填to break。57.has improved考查时态。根据语境, “(生活条件)改善”是过去已经开始,持续到现在而且可能
94、继续下去的动作,所以应用现在完成时,故填has improved。58.personal考查形容词。分析句子成分可知,设空处作定语,所以应用形容词,故填personal。59.hunting考查现在分词。分析句子成分可知,“when (hunt) for a job”为时间状语,在引导时间状语从句的从属连词(when)之后,若主语与主句的主语(they)相同,而谓语动词为be时,从句的主语和动词 be 通常省略,即该句为“when (they are) hunting for a job”的省略形式,故填hunting。60.is got考查动词的时态和语态。分析句子成分可知,设空处作谓语,主
95、语为that,指代先行词“the happiness”,所给词“get”与主语“that”之间为被动关系,根据语境,应用一般现在时态,综上,故填is got。61.that/which考查定语从句。分析句子成分可知,“matter most”为定语从句,修饰先行词“the things”,且在定语从句中作主语,故填that/ which。62.thoughts考查名词。根据其后的are可知,该处应用名词复数形式,结合句意,故填thoughts。63.will quit考查时态。根据语境,“If they lose interest in a job or are not clear about
96、 their future career path”为假设的未曾发生的条件,条件状语从句用一般现在时态,主句通常用一般将来时,即本句遵循了if引导的条件状语从句“主将从现”的原则,故填will quit。64.themselves考查反身代词。反身代词通常作动词或介词的宾语,代指主语本身,表强调,故填themselves。65.so考查并列连词。根据句意逻辑,“This generation is very sensitive and has a lot of self-respect”与“the employers need to care about their temperaments
97、and ways of communication”为因果关系,故填so。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节(满分15分)假定你是李华,你校将举办文学艺术节(Literature and Art Festival)。请给你学校外教Phil写邮件,邀请他做讲座。邮件内容包括:1.主题:美国文学;2.时间:12月28日,下午4点;3.地点:艺术馆大厅(Art Gallery Hall)。注意:1.词数80左右;2.可以适当增加细节, 以使行文连贯;3.开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。Dear Phil,Looking forward to hearing from you soon.Your
