A land free from destruction, plus wealth, natural resources, and labor supply—all these were important 1 in helping England to become the center for the Industrial Revolution. 2 they were not enough. Something 3 was needed to start the industrial process. That "something special" was men—4 individuals who could invent machines, find new 5 of power, and establish business organizations to reshape society.
  The men who 6 the machines of the Industrial Revolution 7 from many backgrounds and many occupations. Many of them were 8 inventors than scientists. A man who is a 9 scientist is primarily interested in doing his research 10 .He is not necessarily working 11 that his findings can be used.
  An inventor or one interested in applied science is 12 trying to make something that has a concrete use. He may try to solve a problem by 13 the theories 14 science or by experimenting through trial and error. Regardless of his method, he is working to obtain a 15 result: the construction of a harvesting machine, the burning of a light bulb, or one of 16 other objectives.
  Most of the people who 17 the machines of the Industrial Revolution were inventors, not trained scientists. A few were both scientists and inventors. Even those who had 18 or no training in science might not have made their inventions 19 a groundwork had not been laid by scientists years 20 .

答案

1--20   CAADB   BACCD   DCBAD   CBABD 
解析

1.从这四个词的意思上来区分,case是“事例,案例”的意思,reason表原因,factor意为“因素”,situation的意思是“形势,状况”,文中句子的意思是上述条件是使英国成为工业革命中心的重要因素。故选C.factor。
2.根据上下句的意思,应选一个表转折的连词,只有A.but符合题意。
3.else意为“其他,别的”,如:What else can I say?别的我还能说些什么呢?extra意为“额外的,外加的”,如:an extra loaf of bread多加的一条面包,而这句话要表达的是“也需要其他条件”,而不是“额外条件”,排除C.extra。near和similar意思相差较远,故选A。
4.根据下句的解释,应选“有创造性的”,creative符合题意。generating (产生的、生产的)、motivating (有动机的)和effective(有效的)意思上不贴切。
5.sources意为“来源,根源”,如,sources of power意为“能源”。符合题意。origin的意思是“起因,由来”。如:the origin of a river河流的源头;base是“基础”的意思;discovery是“发现”的意思。
6.根据句子的意思,应选create“创造,发明”这个词。
7.come from的意思是“出自,来自”,与后面background搭配,意为“出于……背景”。stem from意为“起源于”,如:Her interest in books stems from her childhood.她对书本的兴趣是从童年开始的。B、C项的意思不对。
8.more…than…是固定搭配,意为“与其说……不如……”。本句的意思是,“与其说是科学家,不如说是发明家”。
9.pure的意思是“纯粹的,单纯的”,genuine的意思是“真正的”,practical的意思是“实际的”,clever的意思是“聪明的”,句子的意思是“一个单纯的科学家主要致力于精确的科学研究。”
10.accurately的意思是“精确的”,符合题意。Happily(愉快的);occasionally(时而的,偶然的)和reluctantly(勉强的)均不合题意。
11.so that是固定搭配,表目的。
12.这句话的意思是“一个发明家或热衷于应用科学的人通常试图创造有使用价值的东西。”
13.这句话的意思是“通过运用科学理论”,use意为“使用,运用”,故选B。
14.theories of science的意思是“科学的理论”。
15.根据句子的意思,“他为了明确的结果而工作”,specific的意思是“明确的”,specialized的意思是“专门的”; sole的意思是“独有的,单一的”;single的意思是“单独的,一个人”。
16.根据题意,one of many other objectives“许多其他东西中的一种”。all,全部; few,几乎没有; those,那些;均不合题意。
17.develop (使)发展。如:to develop a business,发展业务。另一个意思是“研制、开发”,用在这里恰当。如:Many new products have been developed to meet the needs of the people.开发了许多新产品以满足人们的需要。Propose建议。如:I propose resting for half an hour.我提议休息半个小时。Supply提供、供应。如:The government supplies free books to schools.政府为学校免费提供图书。Offer提供,出价。如:Will you offer the guests some coffee.你能给客人准备些咖啡吗?
18.本题要求选用的适与no意义相近的不定代词,在四个选项中,只有A) little的意思是“几乎没有”,后接不可数名词,符合题意。
19.本题要求填入的是一个连词,用来连接一个表示与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句。本句的意思是说:“如果没有科学家早年打下的基础,那些在科学上接受过很少或没有接受过教育的人就不可能有所发明创造”。if的意思是“如果,假使”,通常用在虚拟条件句中。
20.本题要求填入的副词用来修饰一个过去完成时的谓语动词,即表示过去某个时间以前发生的动作,因而只能用D)before。如:He would not have achieved so much in the research if he had not studied chemistry years before.如果他早年没学过化学的话,他在这项研究中就不可能取得这么大的成绩。Ago只与一般过去时连用,表示从现在角度看过去的某一时间。如:He studied chemistry many years ago.他好多年前学过化学。

举一反三

A sobbing little girl stood near a small church from which she had been turned away because it “was too crowded.” “I can’t go to Sunday School,” she sobbed to the pastor (牧师) as he walked by.Seeing her shabby appearance, the pastor guessed the reason, and, taking her by the hand, took her inside and found a place for her in the Sunday School class.The child was so touched that she went to bed that night thinking of the children who have no place to worship Jesus.
Some years later, this child lay dead in one of the poor buildings and the parents called for the kindhearted pastor, who had befriended their daughter, to handle the final arrangements.As her poor little body was being moved, a worn purse was found which seemed to have been picked up from some trash dump.Inside was found 57 cents and a note scribbled in childish handwriting which read, “This is to help build the little church bigger so more children can go to Sunday School.”
For two years she had saved for this offering of love.When the pastor tearfully read that note, he knew instantly what he would do.Carrying this note, he told people the story of her unselfish love and devotion.
A newspaper learned of the story and published it.It was read by a Realtor who offered them a parcel of land worth many thousands.When told that the church could not pay so much, he offered it for 57 cents.
Church members made large donations.Checks came from far and wide.Within five years the little girl’s gift had increased to $250,000, a huge sum for that time.
When you are in the city of Philadelphia, look up Temple Baptist Church, with a seating capacity of 3,300 and Temple University, where hundreds of students are trained.Have a look, too, at the Good Samaritan Hospital and at a Sunday School building which houses hundreds of Sunday scholars, so that no child in the area will ever need to be left outside during Sunday school time.

A.To save money for her future career.
B.To build a large building for more children to live in.
C.To help build a church big enough for every child to go to.
D.To remind people to make remarkable history.
42.How did a Realtor help the church?
A.He made the story known to the public by publishing it.
B.He sold a land to the church for free.
C.He offered the church a piece of land for 57 cents.
D.He raised money for the church.
43.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Church members donated because of their desire for a big church.
B.The girl’s unselfish love was rewarded at last.
C.The pastor found 57 cents saved by the little girl.
D.Temple Baptist Church, Temple University, Good Samaritan Hospital and a Sunday School building all belong to the small church the little girl went to.

The physical memory dump(电脑死机) error is a big problem that affects even the most advanced computer systems.Although it"s quite a rare error, it"s one of the most stopping what you"re doing and restarting your computer—making you lose all your unsaved data.This is a big problem, but there is actually a very easy way to fix it.
There are two reasons why the physical memory dump happens.The first is pretty simple and is to do with the "hardware", and if any of these pieces are not fit for your system, it will cause the physical memory dump.So, if you"ve recently added any hardware to your PC, then take that out and see if it works.
The other reason is your system, the "registry".The registry is a big database(数据库)that operates in the background of Windows, storing all sorts of settings and information about your PC.The problem with the registry is that since it has so many important files inside, it"s constantly got hundreds of files open every time you use your PC.And because there are so many files to open at once, Windows is constantly getting confused, leading it to save many of these files in the wrong way.These files go wrong when saved wrongly, making them difficult for your computer to read.However, if it can"t read the files at all, it has no choice but to stop everything it"s doing and restart your PC.This is why the physical memory dump error appears so easily—because when a registry file is so wrong that it can"t be read, your computer needs to refresh itself immediately.
This latter reason for causing the physical memory dump is actually extremely common and the likelihood is that your PC is suffering from it, if you"re seeing this error.Luckily, it"s also incredibly easy to fix—you just need to use a software tool called a "registry cleaner" to go through the registry and fix all the problems in there.
72.From the text we can infer that ________.
A.the dump error often happens to your PC
B.the dump canbe dealt with easily
C.only the advanced computers suffers from the error
D.the dump error can cause the data in your PC to be lost
73.The reason that your PC has the dump error is that ___________.
A.the the hardware loses its memory
B.your Windows needs to be upgraded
C.you have saved wrong files in the PC
D.you have stored too many files in the PC.
74.What’s problem with the registry when your PC goes wrong?
A.The register can’t read the files correctly.
B.It must open 100 files every time you use your PC.
C.The register doesn’t agree with the database.
D.The register must save many important files inside.
75.What does a registry cleaner means?
A.A softwar which can help you save time.
B.A software which can remove unnecessary files
C.A software which can repair the machine.
D.a software which makes your PC down.

The new model is the highly interactive(互动的)learning model. We could also call it the conversational model, or the tutorial model. It is computer based, with the interaction between the student, or a small group of students, and learning programs are like the conversation between a student and a skilled tutor. Distance learning will be the main delivery method.
Student interaction with the learning material on the computer will use the student"s natural language; it will seem like a conversation between a student and a human tutor. This is the key point of highly interactive, or conversational, learning units. Programs will ask questions in the student’s native language, and respond reasonably to free-form student input. Multiple choice and pointing will seldom be used; they often do not allow individualization (个体化) of education.
An important aspect of this model is that the computer will frequently store information about the student, about problems and about how far individual students have progressed. These records will be used often within the programs. Thus when a student returns to the learning activity, the computer knows about that student and knows where to begin the new part.
Global education is critical for the future, to get rid of poverty, corruption (腐败), violence and war, to solve major problems such as the lack of drinkable water, and to insure a happy life for all. Education should no longer be limited to the wealthy of the world, but should be available to everyone.
In the new distance learning environment learning can take place in markets, libraries, public buildings, learning centers, and the home. Gradually schools and universities will play a smaller role in learning, both because better learning can be delivered through such highly interactive material, and because such learning will be less costly for the individual student. Motivation (动机)is particularly important in a mastery-based distance learning, as the usual threats of traditional classrooms such as that of low grades are no longer possible.
Voice input will probably be the mode(模式) for this interaction. The new voice input systems from several companies are useful, cheap, and speaker independent in highly interactive learning. Keyboards may not be needed. Speech is a natural way for humans to communicate.
Students will work in small peer groups, about four. Other contacts with people, learning circles, will be possible, directly or electronically.
68. What is not the new model also called?
A. interactive model       B. conversational model  
C. tutorial model          D. linguistic model
69. What does the model often use?
A. individualization of education            B. multiple choice and pointing
C. questions in students’ native language      D. fixed-form student input
70. What do computers detect(检查) students about?
A. Their future achievements      B. Their intelligences  
C. Their problems               D. Their families
71. According to the passage, distance learning ____________ .
A. is still expensive for ordinary students   
B. will take place mainly in classrooms.
C. will play a more important role in students’ learning.   
D. will still affect badly on the low-graded students
