答案
51--60 ADCBD BCACA
解析
51.unnecessary没有必要的。他们说没有必要让孩子在业余时间做作业。Many people now think that teacher give pupils too much homework. 表明了家长对学生做家庭作业的态度,他们认为老师布置的家庭作业太多了。B项uninteresting“没有兴趣的”;C项unfortunate“不幸的”;D项unimportant“不重要的”,均与题意不符。答案为A。
52.moreover“此外,而且”。进一步阐明家长对教师布置家庭作业的观点。nevertheless“不过”;therefore“因此”,表示结果;however“然而”,表示转折,均不合语意。答案为D。
53.properly适当地。而且,家长认为很多教师对学生的家庭作业没有适当的计划。一些考生把considerably(相当地)误解为“考虑”,发生了错误。B项favourably“赞同的,有利的”;D项pleasantly“愉快的”,均不符合题意。答案为C。
54.根据下文所提供的语境which they already done at school可判断出学生所做的家庭作业重复了在学校所做的事。而accomplish="finish" successfully完成,实现;attend参加,照顾,均不合语意。答案为B。
55.complain about对……抱怨。由于教师布置的作业太难,引起了家长的抱怨。选项A有一定的干扰性,quarrel about为……争吵。一般说来,家长不会因此和教师争吵。puzzle about伤脑筋。explore探险,一般不与about连用,而且也与短文意思不符。答案为D。
56.下文Spain and Turkey are two countries which stopped homework recently.对做出正确选择作了提示,由于家长们认为学生的家庭作业是浪费时间,他们希望能使学生不做家庭作业。答案为B。
57.上文中的allow pupils to stay at school to do their homework和The children are free to help one another.属于一种安排(arrangement),而不属于schedule“课程表”、operation“操作”和behaviour“行为”的范畴。答案为C。
58.fair相当好。下文的内容对做出正确选择作了提示:学生应该在安静的地方做作业,而家庭的条件不利于做作业,所以家庭作业不是相当好的。由于fair在教科书中的注释为“公平”,影响了考生做出正确选择。答案为A。
59.comfortable舒适的。根据上文中的quiet可确定答案。学生应该在安静舒适的房间里做作业。选项D有很大的干扰性,suitable合适的,与quiet不相搭配。答案为C。
60.根据下文中的介词in可确定答案,take no interest in sth.对……不感兴趣。另外一些家长对他们孩子的家庭作业不感兴趣。干扰项是选项C,take notice of对……不理睬,要与介词of连用。B项curiosity“好奇”;D项attention“注意”,与题意不符。答案为A。
核心考点
试题【Many people now think that teachers give pupils too much homework .They say that】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
Handshaking, though a European practise is often seen in big cities of China. Nobody knows exactly when the practice started in Europe. It is said that long long ago in Europe when people met, they showed their unarmed (无武器的) hands to each other as a sign of goodwill. As time went on and trade in cities grew rapidly, people in cities began to clap each other’s hands to make a deal or to reach an agreement. This practice was later changed into shaking hands among friends on meeting or leaving each other. “Let’s shake (hands) on it” sometimes means agreement reached.
Do the Europeans shake hands wherever they go and with whomever they meet? No. Sometimes the Chinese abroad reach out their hands too often to be polite. It is really very impolite to give your hand when the other party, especially when it is a woman, shows little interest in shaking hands with you and when the meeting does not mean anything to him or-her. Even if, for politeness, he holds out his unwilling hand in answer to your uninvited hand, just touch it slightly- There is generally a misunderstanding (误解) among the Chinese that westerners are usually open and straight forward, while the Chinese are rather reserved (保守的) in manner. But in fact some people in western countries more reserved than some Chinese today. So it is a good idea to shake hands with a westerner only when he shows interest in further relations with you.
64. In the old days in Europe, people put out their unarmed hands to each other ______.
A. to make a deal B. to greet each other
C. to show friendliness D. to reach an agreement

67. The main purpose of the text is ______.
A. to tell us some differences between the East and the West
B. to offer us some important facts about handshaking
C. to introduce us to some different customs in the West
D. to give us some advice before we travel abroad
Shanghai: Car rentals(出租) are becoming more and more popular as an inexpensive way of taking to the roads. Business people, foreigners and families alike are making good use of the growing industry.
The first car rental firm opened in Shanghai in 1992 and now 12 car rental players are in the game, with more than 11,500 cars in their books.
The largest player - Shanghai Bashi Tourism Car Rental Center offers a wide variety of choices - deluxe sedans, minivans, station wagons, coaches. Santana sedans are the big favorite.
Firms can attract enough customers for 70 percent of their cars every month. This figure shoots up during holiday seasons like National Day, Labor Day and New Year"s Day, with some recording 100 percent rental.
The major market force rests in the growing population of white-collar employees (白领雇员), who can afford the new service, said Zhuang Yu, marketing manager of Shanghai Angel Car Rental Co.

More American people take their troubles with them on holiday, according to a new survey. Although 40 percent said that the main reason for going away is to escape pressure (压力) from work, almost all said they worry more than they do at home. Only four in every 100 said that they are happy and free of care.
The most common worry is burglary ( 入室盗窃), with four out of 10 worrying about their homes being broken into while they’re abroad. More than a quarter fear they will feel crazy with some other noisy and rough holiday-makers and 22 percent worry they may be attacked or their possessions will be missing. One in five think the car may break down; and the same number worry about the chances of bad weather.
The survey also showed that the stay-at-home Americans are no more. Three out of every five want to have a holiday abroad, a great increase from the figures only three years ago. The hotel holiday is still a winner, with about one third of all Americana preferring to go on a self-catering ( 自助 ) holiday.

The famous American gorilla(大猩猩) expert Diane Fossey had a completely new way to study gorillas — she pretended to be one of them. She copied their actions and way of life — eating plants and getting down on her hands and knees to walk the way a gorilla does. It was a new relationship.
Diane Fossey was murdered in Rwanda in 1985 and her story was made into the popular film Gorillas in the Mist. It was a long way from King Kong, which is about a gorilla as a monster (a frightening animal), and helped to show a new idea: the real monster is man, while the gorilla is to be admired.
Today there are thought to be around 48,000 lowland gorillas and maybe 400—450 mountain gorillas in the wild. From the Congo in West Africa, to Rwanda and Uganda further east, they are endangered by hunting and by the cutting down of their forest homes.
Some time ago, I found in my letterbox a little magazine from the World Wide Fund for Nature. It had two photos side by side. One was of a young gorilla. “This is a species of mammal(哺乳类动物),” said the words below it. “It is being destroyed by man. We must save it for our own good.” The other photo showed a human baby. The words also read, “This is a species of mammal,” but then went on: “It is the most destructive(破坏性的) on earth. We must retrain it for its own good.”
56.The text mainly talks about _____.
A. Diane Fossey B. the gorillas in Rwanda
C. the protection of the gorillas D. the film Gorillas in the Mist
57.We can learn from the text that _____.
A. Gorillas in the mist was based Fossey’s experiences
B. Lowland gorillas live longer than mountain gorillas
C. King Kong showed us that a gorilla is admirable
D. Diane Fossey was murdered by a gorilla
58. What message can we get from the two photos in the magazine?
A. Gorillas are man’s close friends.
B. Both man and the gorilla need to be saved.
C. Young gorillas are as lovely as human babies.
D. Man should live peacefully with the gorilla.
As the saying goes, nothing succeeds like success. People like to deal with a successful person. Why? You see there must be a reason why the person has achieved success. And most obviously it is because he is expert at what he is doing.
When given a chance, people would deal with the best. Naturally, the best way to produce a success is to do a lot of work. Your achievement and the fame it leads to will make it known to the public how good you really are. People will know this by your completed record or simply by recognizing it upon seeing you in action. Just as it becomes quite obvious that a man is a full-time tennis player when you see him play on the tennis court, it will become obvious that you are skilled in your work when people see you do your work. But many other image building ways are practical in producing a success image, as will be discussed in the following…
1. People like to deal with a successful person probably because _______.
A. they hope to know the secret of being successful
B. they don’t believe what he has achieved
C. they are eager to show respect to him
D. they feel uncertain if he is an expert
2. How can we know how good a person is at his work?
A. Work with him.
B. Study how he has achieved success.
C. Just look at him doing his work.
D. Watch him playing tennis on the tennis court.
3. The passage mainly tells that _____.
A. success image may come after success
B. people like to deal with a successful person
C. there are many image building ways
D. success image is or has been built in one’s work
