Before 1 this question, it will be useful to i
10、ntroduce some 2 concepts. Conflict, 3 as opposition among social units-or individuals-directed against one another, is4 from competition, which 5 opposition among social units 6 seeking to obtain something which is 7 inadequate supply. Competitors may not know about one another, which those who 8 in
11、 a conflict do. Conflict and competition are both 9 of opposition. The meaning of opposition has been stated as a process by which social unit function in the disservice of one another, opposition is 10 contrasted to cooperation, a 11 by which social units function in the service of one another. The
12、se 12 are necessary because it is important to emphasize that competition between individuals or groups is inevitable in a world of limited 13 , but conflict Isns. Conflict, nevertheless, is very likely to occur and is probably an essential and desirable 14 of human societies. Many authors have 15 t
13、heir arguments that war cannot be avoided on the idea that in the struggle for existence among groups of animals, only those which are best 16 remain alive. In general, however, this struggle in nature is competition, not conflict. Those who fail in this competition 17 starve to death or are 18 by o
14、ther types of animals. This struggle for 19 is not similar to human war, but is like the competition of 20 for jobs, markets, and materials. The most important quality of this struggle is the competition for the necessities of life that are not enough to satisfy all.( ) 1. A. considering B. solving
15、C. answering D. saying( ) 2. A. related B. used C. translated D. sacred( ) 3. A. specified B. remarked C. defined D. claimed( ) 4. A. variable B. distinguished C. various D. isolated( ) 5. A. acknowledged B. denies C. assumes D. means( ) 6. A. critically B. approximately C. independently D. costly(
16、) 7. A. on B. for C. with D. in( ) 8. A. enter B. participate C. fall D. involve( ) 9. A. formations B. classes C. terms D. reactions( ) 10. A. nevertheless B. however C. thus D. maybe( ) 11.

A. encouraged B. accepted C. adapted D. adopted( ) 17. A. not only B. either C. neither D. both( ) 18. A. killed B. raised
18、C. fired D. surrounded( ) 19. A. resistence B. privilege C. favour D. employment( ) 20. A. workers B. officials C. individuals D. residents1.A 考虑这个问题之前,有必要介绍一些与之相关的概念。2.A “相关的概念”,应用related。3.C define, “解释”,“下定义”,后面经常接as; specify,“指定”,“指明”。The regulations specify that you may use a dictionary in the
19、examination。规则指明考虐时可用字典。remark,“说”。claim,“要求承认某人之身份,所有权”。Does anyone claim this umbrella?有没有人认领这把伞? 冲突,指的是社会单位,团体或个人之间的对抗。它与“竞争”不同。竞争指的是社会单位间为夺取一种不足够的供应而进行的对抗。4.B distinguish from区别,不同;variable与vaious(多样的)后面一般不接from; isolated“与隔离开来”。5.D 对前面competition的解释,“意味着”。6.C critically批判地;approximately大致地;inde
20、pendently 独立地;不受控制地;costly形容词,昂贵的。根据文中含义,“竞争对手各自寻求物质,所以才会有冲突”。所以此外选C为宜。7.D in short(inadequate) supply“缺乏的”为固定搭配,一般不用其它介词。8.B enter in登记姓名,细节等。例:enter in an item in an accountbook将一笔账记入账本;fall in陷入,例fall in love with sb. involve in“卷入”,一般为卷入某个事件;participate in参与。 竞争者们可能彼此不了解,而冲突者们则熟识对方。9.B formation
21、,构成;terms,术语;reactions,反映;classes在此处指“种类,类别”。冲突和竞争都属于对抗。10.C 选这类连接副词时,关键是弄清句与句之间意义关系。上句讲到对抗就是彼此不服务。这句讲到合作就是彼此服务。他们之间连接词自然就是“因此”了,因此他们相反。对抗与合作相反。合作指的是社会单位互相服务。11.C procession队伍,行列;standard标准;process过程;measurement衡量。上句中谈到对抗是彼此不服务时,用的是“a process by which social.”,此处与上句这部分结构完全相同,就可套用process一词。12.B accou
22、nts叙述;definitions,定义,概念;descriptions,描述;explanations,解释。文章第二句话是第一自然段主题句:介绍几个概念,然后作者分别介绍。本题中用these definitions“这些概念”则与上文浑然一体。对这些定义的理解非常必要,因为有必要强调,个人或团体之间的竞争在这个资源有限的世界是难免的,而冲突则是可免的。13.A resource资源,指国家、人类或个人所拥有的人力及物力,例:We must exploit the natural resources of our country. 我们必须开发本国的天然资源。source指河的源头:the
23、source of Nile尼罗河的发源地。source还指出处,来源,例:The news comes from a reliable source.这项消息出自可靠的来源。origin起源,the origin of a quarrel 争吵的起因。此空前为a world of limited一个有限资源的世界,因此选A。14.B 冲突很可能发生,它可能是人类社会必不可少、值得得到的要素。15. D base.on. 把建立在上。16.C 只有那些适应(能力)强的才活下来。17.B 看到or就会想到either; not only.but also; neither.not.,both.a
24、nd都是固定搭配。在竞争中失败的动物,要不就是饿死,要不就被别的动物杀死。18.A 由前句starve to death和or可知,此处应同death意义相近。19.A 为生存的抗争不同于人类战争。20.C 由后面的jobs, markets and materials可知,此处应填“个人”。 workers, officials和residents(居民)都以偏概全。完形填空-BThe purpose of a letter of application(求职信)is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state 1 the job you
25、want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have 2 . It should be simple, human, personal and brief without 3 any necessary fact. In writing such a letter, keep in 4 what a possible employer is most 5 to want to know about, therefore, the opening paragraph is perhaps the most importan
26、t part. 6 the first few sentences fail to 7 the readers attention, the rest of the letter may not be 8 at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs of the employer not 9 your own needs of desire. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your 10 in todays paper,” you might say “I have ma
27、de a careful 11 of your advertising during the past six months.” 12 “I have made a survey(调查)to find out how many housewives use your product and why they like it.” Be clear about the kind of job you are now 13 .Try to avoid(避免)generalities. College 14 looking for their first positions often ask, “W
28、hat can I 15 against such a situation in a letter? Employer want experiencewhich, naturally, no 16 has.” The answer is that everything you have ever done is 17 . It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. 18 a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer somet
29、hing clear to do or expect. An excellent19 is to enclose(内附)a stamped, self-addressed envelop with your letter, which makes it 20 for a possible employer to get in touch with you.( ) 1. A. clearly B. carefully C. seriously D. easily提示:本段第一句是文章的论点,下文都是围绕在求职中如何“推销”自己展开论述。后文表明正确地推销自己并被雇用不是一件容易的事,排除D项。本
30、段最后一句对求职信的要求表明:求职信重要的是表达清楚,因此,正确答案为A。答案:A( ) 2. A. found B. done C. known D. heard提示:求职信应该说明你做过什么,有哪方面的经验,所以,正确答案为B。下文有该答案的暗示。答案:B( ) 3. A. sending out B. taking out C. leaving out D. picking out提示:上文说求职信应表达清楚,本句进一步说不要有遗漏。答案:C( ) 4. A. brain B. sight C. order D. mind答案:D( ) 5. A. probably B. possibl
31、y C. likely D. able提示:本题考查词的辨析。从语法上讲四个选项都正确,但是able用在此处语意不通;probable和possible作表语时都不用人作主语;likely作表语时既可以人作主语也可物作主语。答案:C( ) 6. A. While B. Now that C. As D. If答案:D( ) 7. A. pay B. win C. show D. fix提示:解此题时应注意词的搭配和用法:pay attention to 和fix ones attention on 的主语为发出该动作的人;win ones attention 的主语为被注意的对象。答案:B(
32、) 8. A. kept B. continued C. written D. read提示:解此题时,不妨将四个选项分别代入空格,根据语意的不同,很容易找出正确答案是D。全句的意思为:如果一封信的前几句引不起读信人的注意,那么这封信的剩余部分就不会被读下去了。答案:D( ) 9. A. to B. for C. into D. from提示:从前文看,应选A。key sth.to+n.意为“调节(使适合)”。例如:His topic was keyed to young people.(他使话题适合年轻人的口味。)答案:A( ) 10. A. advertisement B. instruc
33、tion C. article D. introduction答案:A( ) 11. A. watch B. search C. study D. discussion提示:解此题时,一是考虑语境;二是注意固定搭配,习惯上说:keep watch(for);make a search(for);make a study of。答案:C( ) 12. A. and B. besides C. or D. rather than答案:C( ) 13. A. working at B. asking for C. preparing for D. taking up提示:通篇文章都讲如何在求职信中推
34、销自己,所以A、C、D项都与上下文不符。答案:B( ) 14. A. graduates B. students C. experts D. professors提示:依据后文their first position排除C、D项。找工作一般都是毕业生的事,不是在校生的事,所以正确答案为A。答案:A( ) 15. A. describe B. consider C. mean D. provide提示:联系前文“Try to avoid generalities.”和后文“Employers want experience”,不难选出本题的正确答案provide(提供)。答案:D( ) 16.
35、A. worker B. beginner C. learner D. manager提示:worker 和manager不缺少经验,最佳答案为B。答案:B( ) 17. A. success B. development C. practicee D. experience答案:D( ) 18. A. Make B. Ask C. State D. Get提示:make a request(to sb. for sth.)(向某人)请求(某物)。答案:A( ) 19. A. result B. decision C. promise D. idea答案:D( ) 20. A. happier
36、 B. easier C. cheaper D. safer提示:C项干扰性较强。对于一个雇主来说,一封信和一枚邮票价值不大,他喜欢的是方便。答案:B完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Hi Cindy,Please dont worry if you feel a little strange around boys.
