16、w miles of a lO-knownmile race over a course with a few high hills. Still, I felt energetic; despite the hills it was going to be a fine run. Just ahead of me was Peggy Mimno, a teacher from Mount Kiseo, New York. She too was running easily, moving along at my speed. The pace felt comfortable, so I
17、decided to stay where I was; why pay attention to pace when she was setting such a nice one? Id overtake(追上) her later on when she tired. So I ran behind her. The course headed north for miles, wandered west for a hilly mile, then turned south again along a winding road. The race was getting harder.
18、 We had four miles left and already it was beginning to be real work. Peggy overtook a young runner. She seemed to know him, for they exchanged a few cheerful words as she passed him. Their exchange worried me. You dont chat during a race unless you feeling good, and Peggy plainly was. Still, I was
19、close enough to overtake her if she tired, so I didnt give up hope completely. We were getting nearer to a long, punishing hill now and it would be the test. We were a mile from the finish line, so whatever happened on the hill would almost determine who crossed it first. As I moved up the hill, my
20、attention wandered for a few minutes. When I looked up, Peggy was moving away-first five yards, then ten, then more. Finally it was clear that there was no help of catching her. She beat me soundly. There is an important lesson in that race. Women are thought to be weaker, slower and not nearly as s
21、killed in sport. Yet as Peggy Mimno so clearly showed, the similarities between men and women runners are more important than differences. I have run with a number of women, and I can say it is often hard work.36. What did the writer think of the race in the beginning? A. It would be hard work. B. I
22、t would be an easy race. C. It would be a test of his strength. D. It would be a good learning experience.37. What worried the writer when Peggy greeted the young runner? A. Peggy overtook the young runner. B. Peggy was running energetically. C. Peggy was laughing as the writer. D. Peggy paid no att
23、ention to the writer.38. By saying a long, punishing hill (paragraph 5 ), the writer implies that _ . A. Peggy would fail to reach the hilltop B. men are more skilled at climbing hills C. overtaking Peggy would be easy D. climbing the hill would be a demanding task39. What lesson does the writer lea
24、rn from the race? A. Women are as good as men in sport. B. Women are better at climbing hills. C. He should have more training in a cross-country race. D. He should set a quicker pace at the beginning of a race. (B) Say you are a 17th century construction worker whos worked long and hard to build a
25、splendid tower for the dead wife of your emperor. Now say that the emperor orders your fingertips cut off so you can never build another one. Yes, that is the Taj Mahal,one of the most famous buildings in the world. And the tale behind the construction is just as impressive as the building itself. F
26、irst, theres the emperor of northern India, Shah Jehan,also called the King of the World. In 1612,Shah Jehan married Mumtaz Mahal. Madly in love, they had 14 children over the next 20 years. But then sadness came. As Mumtaz was about to give birth to childnumber 14, she said she had heard her unborn
27、 baby cry out. It was a sign of death. And as Mumtaz lay dying, she asked Jehan to build a lasting memorial to celebrate their love. When the heartbroken Jehan appeared eight days after his wifes death, his people were shocked to see that his coal-black hair had turned snow-white. Putting away his s
28、adness, Jehan ordered his wifes dying wish carried out. More than 20,000 workers labored nearly 22 years to complete the construction. In 1653,Jehan placed Mumtazs remains in the center under the building. And then, son number five, Aurangzeb, murdered his brothers and took over the power from his a
29、ging father. Hehan lived the rest of his days-eight years, to be exact-imprisoned not far from the Taj Mahal. Jehan was only allowed to climb onto the top of his prison to see the timelesstreasure from a distance. But never again would he be allowed to visit it-until he was buried next to his wife.
30、Today 25,000 people visit the Taj Mahal each day. Though the reason for building the tower was a strange, sad story, those who see its breath-taking beauty are reminded of the happiness that inspired its construction.40. The first two paragraphs were written to show that A. the Taj Mahal is all unus

As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his juni
33、or year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had sixfalling grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked. One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and pleaded for help. Please
34、 God, I cant do any thing more for nay son. Im at the end of nay rope. Im giving the whole thing up to you. I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. I want to talk to you about Karls absences. Before he could say another word,I choked up and all my disappoin
35、tment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. I love my son but I just dont know what to do. Ive tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. Its out of nay hands. For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster
36、seriously said, Thank you for your time, and hung up. Karls next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himsel
37、f around. On our way home, hesaid, Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year? I nodded. That was me. I thought Id play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. Thats when I knew I had to make you proud. 43. There was silence on the other end of

43、een five years when we graduated, but those memories are as sweet as ever before. 55._书面表达：25分 以时间为线索写一篇短文，介绍中国的“高空王子”阿迪力。 11971年7月1日：出生在中国新疆一个杂技世家。 21976年：父亲去世，开始训练走钢丝。决心成为世界顶尖的钢丝行走表演者。 31991年：在上海的一次高空行走表演中，由于绳索突然折断，阿迪力摔在地上，造成全身17处骨折。医生建议他以后不要再表演了，但他不愿放弃他的事业。 41996年6月23日：阿迪力成为中国高空走索跨越 江河第一人。 52002年
44、5月11日：完成了一项壮举：在绳索上度过了600小时，累计行走123小时48分，打破了由加拿大人Jay Cochrane保持的吉尼斯世界记录。 注意：1词数100左右。 2参考词汇：走钢丝wire-walk，钢丝行走表演者wirewalker，壮举remarkable feat，吉尼斯世界记录the Guinness world record。 答案解析1D 由句意可知，说话人在征求对方意见，而对方对说话人的建议非常满意。satisfy不能和fine搭配；meet作“符合”之意时和条件、愿望、要求等搭配而不和某人搭配；fit在形状及大小很合适；suit指“对适合”。2A disc是被录制的，用
45、被动形式，且已经录制好了，故排除C项。 3D ask for the governments permission意思是“征求政府的允许”，其他选项与语境意思不符合。4C 本题使用了定语从句来考查固定搭配be devoted to短语。句子意思是：她全力以赴关心的儿子十年前出国了。 5C本题考查时态。by the time后面接现在或将来时间，句子用将来完成时；后面接过去时时，用过去完成时。6A 句子意思是：我越想他我就越找到更多的理由，像过去那样爱他更多。much修饰谓语动词love。7B weight指重物时为可数名词。8B 短语意思区别题。much表示幅度。Earths climate
46、will warm up much9B本题考查名词性从句。whether意思是“是否”，引导了动词tell的宾语从句。10C however引起让步状语从句，后跟形容词，等于no matter how；且语序应为陈述语序。11B 本句的句义为：一旦做出了决定，所有的人都应该遵守。stick to坚持；refer to所指，参考；lead to导致。根据语境，这里选“坚持”最合适。12C 此处的experience意为“经历”，为可数名词；这里的airplane和experience都表示泛指，要加不定冠词，故答案为C。13A 由答语的后半部分可知他想知道具体原因。句意为：今晚为什么去喝一杯?
47、难道你在比赛中获得了一等奖? what for意为“为什么”。14B 考查交际用语的用法。从回答句可以看出，为什么不呢?一幅图画能顶一千个单词。15B sooner or later意思是“迟早”；whats more意思是“而且”；as a result意思是“结果是”；more or less意思是“或多或少”。只有B项适合语境。II. 完形填空 16C 这里指以前所受的伤，所以用earlier。从下文的“whether or not I should attend the meet一句话可以推断出运动会还没有举行，脚伤一定是以前受的伤。 17D 作者的脚伤还没有好，是否参加运动会还犹豫不
48、决，故选doubt表示“犹豫”。 18C 根据前后文可以看出，作者尽管脚受伤但她还是作好了3000米长跑的准备。be ready for意思是“为作好准备”。 19B后文的“I fell farther and farther behind”说明别的女孩冲到了她的前面。ahead of意思是“在的前面”。 20A 指由于落在了别人的后面而感到惭愧。只有A适合题意。 21A从前文的“Hooray!”shouted the crowd一句话可以看出大家在欢呼。 22B 上文说到第一名的运动员在作者落后两圈时已经冲过终点，所以她产生了退出比赛的想法。drop out退出。 23D drop out与
49、decide to keeping going是转折关系，所以用however。 24C 脚伤还没有好，所以比赛时感到了疼痛。in pain 疼痛。 25C in track提示了是指赛跑，是说作者明年不想参加赛跑的念头。 26A 作者在这里认为，即使自己的脚好了，也不值得再参加赛跑。 27D 这里是修饰cheer，指掌声，所以用louder表示比原先更热烈了。 28B从后文的“They must be cheering for the boys说明作者确信他们在为即将比赛的男孩鼓掌。29B 这里用when表示“这时”，我正要离开，这时几个女孩朝我走来。30D 因为跑在最后，所以作者认为跑步失
50、败。lose a race跑步失败。 31B 这里指她受到了同学们的鼓励，重新获得了希望。regain hope意思是“重新获得希望”。 32D 有了希望，作者决定明年继续参加比赛。：stick with坚持。33A 句子的意思是：力量和勇气不是通过金牌和胜利来衡量的。measure衡量。 34B 通过作者的努力可以看出力量和勇气是在斗争中衡量出来的。 35D 根据语境，这里是转折关系，所以用but。 IV阅读理解 36B 细节理解题。第一段告诉我们作者一开始认为这是一次轻松的比赛。 37D 细节理解题。从第二段可以看出作者担心的是Peggy精力充沛地跑着。 38D 字句理解题。由所在句子的语
51、境可以看出，在比赛中爬山是一项必须的任务。 39A 主旨大意题。整篇短文就是介绍了作者和Peggy赛跑的故事，Peggy的胜利说明在体育方面妇女和男人一样优秀。 40A 细节理解题。从第二段的“Yes，that is the Taj Mahal，one of the most famous buildings in the worldAnd the tale behind the construction is just as impressive as the building itself”可以得出，Taj Mahal是一座不同寻常的建筑。 41C 推理判断题。根据第三段的And as M
52、umtaz lay dying，she asked Jehan to build a lasting memorial to celebrate their love”可以推断出这是一座纪念性的建筑。 42B 简单推理计算题。从第五段的第二、三句话可以计算出Mumtaz大约死于1632年。 43A 推理判断题。从第三段可以判断出这位母亲的话深深地打动了说话人。 44D 字句理解题。从短文的最后一段Karls next report card showed a marked improvement in his gradesFinally，he even made the honor roll可
53、以看出Karl取得了很大的进步，最后甚至被列人学校最好的学生的名单。 45D 主旨大意题。全文叙述了一位母亲设法使自己的孩子摆脱失去父亲的痛苦的故事，由此说明母爱在青少年的生活中起到了重要的作用。 IV短文改错 46去掉yet。前面已经有了still，后面就不需要再用yet了。 47去掉were。这里不需要用被动语态。 48“后加an。age是可数名词，所以前面要加an。 49”us改为ourselves。by oneself是固定组合，意思是“靠自己”。 50helplessly改为helpless。这里是helpless作句中表语，与前面的lonely并列。 51swimming改为swi
54、m。动词并列在形式上要一致，在这里都用动词原形。 52treat改为treated 。考查时态一致关系，短文主体时态足一般过去时。 53right。 54other改为others。这里不是指两者之间，指剩下的其他人，不是一个人。 55when改为since。It has been+时间+since是由固定句型，表示“自从以来就”。V. 书面表达 Adili was born on July 1, 1971 in Xinjiang, China, into a family with a great tradition in acrobatics. When he was only five
55、years old, his father died. Soon he began to be trained in the art of wire-walking. He worked very hard and decided to become the finest wi rewalker in the world. In a wire-walking performance in shanghai in 1991,his rope suddenly broke. He fell onto the ground and his bones were broken in 17 differ
