1.
A.
【考点】考察特殊句式和连词辨析
【答案】C
【解析】本题考察的是“祈使句+连词+陈述句”的特殊句式。该句型相当于：If条件句，+主句；本句相当于：If you give me a chance, I’ll give you a wonderful surprise.在变成条件句时，如果是一个肯定句，就使用连词and；如果成为一个否定句，就使用or；如：Hurry up, or we will be late.相当于：If you don’t hurry up, you will be late.句义：给我一个机会，我就会给你一个惊喜。故C正确。
【试题延伸】本题中含有特殊句式：祈使句+连词+陈述句=If引导的条件句+主句。这个句型进一步转换成：名词短语+连词+陈述句。如果原句中的连词是and,那么可以转换成一个肯定的条件句；如果原句中的连词是or，可以转换成一个否定的祈使句。
【举一反三】
A.Have one more hour
C.Given one more hourD.If I have one more hour
〖答案〗B
〖考点〗本题考查 “祈使句+and+简单句”的用法,[中@教^网*&%]
〖解析〗本题考查 “祈使句+and+简单句”的用法, 其中祈使句可转换成名词短语, 如One more word and I’ll beat you flat.因此B项正确。如果选C, D两项, 要去掉and。
2.
A.
【考点】考察交际用语
【答案】B
【解析】本句考察的是交际用语。A我无法忍受了；B我不着急；C好主意；D非我所爱；句义：——我现在就帮你修理你的电脑。—哦，慢慢来，我不着急。本题的关键词是take your time=don’t hrry。所以B项与之相符。
3.Wind is now the world’s fastest growing ________ of power.
A.
【考点】连词名词词义辨析
【答案】A
【解析】本题考察的是名词词义辨析。Source根源，来源，源头；sense感觉，知觉；result结果；root根，根源；原因，本质；祖先；句义：风力是现在世界上增长速度最快的电力来源。根据句义可知souce of power指电力来源。故A正确。
【举一反三】What’s the _____ of having a public open space where you can’t eat, drink or even simply hang out for a while?
〖答案〗A
〖考点〗本题考查名词辨析。
〖解析〗本题所设的语境是：有这样一个你在那里不能吃、不能喝甚至不能动的公共开放场所有什么意义呢？A项sense “感觉, 思考, 意义”；B项matter “事件, 问题, 原因”；C项case “事, 案例, 容器”；D项opinion “意见, 看法, 主张”。What’s the sense of…？“有什么意义”四个选项中只能A项符合语境。
4._______ you start eating in a healthier way, weight control will become much easier.
A. unless
【考点】考察状语从句连词辨析
【答案】D
【解析】unless除非…；如果…不…；although尽管；before在…之前；once一旦，曾经；句义：一旦你开始以一种健康的方式吃饭，控制体重就会变得更加容易。根据句义可知once表示“一旦”，引导条件状语从句。故D正确。
【举一反三】
〖答案〗D
〖考点〗本题考查连词。
〖解析〗此题重在句意的判断。 “一旦学生们决定了去哪所大学读书, 他们就得研究下办理入学的手续。”A. As当；因为...B. while做连词强调一件事发生时另外一个动作正在进行；C. Until直到...D. Once一旦。因此选D
5. Anxiously, she took the dress out of the package and tried it on, only _________ it didn’t fit
A. to find
【考点】考察非谓语动词用法
【答案】A
【解析】本题考察的是不定式做结果状语用法，在非谓语动词中，不定式常常和only连用，表示意料之外的结果。现在分词doing常常表示意料之中的结果。句义：很着急，她把裙子从包装里拿了出来，结果却发现裙子不合适。她很着急地试穿裙子，但是裙子不合适。说明这是意料之外的结果，所以使用A项。
【举一反三】George returned after the war, only _______ that his wife had left him.
A. to be told
C. being told
26.【答案】A
【解析】此处only to do/be done表示意料之外的结果；现在分词作结果状语则表示自然的结果。这里George和tell之间是被动关系，因此用to be told。句意：乔治战争后回到家，结果被告知妻子已经离开了。
6. _______ the school, the village has a clinic, which was also built with government support.
A. In reply to
【考点】考察介词短语辨析
【答案】B
【解析】本题的四个介词短语都很重要。In reply to作为…的回复；in addition to…除…之外（包括在内）；in charge of负责…；in place of代替；句义：除了学校，村子里还有诊所，诊所也是在政府的支持下建成的。也就是说学校和诊所都是政府支持建设成功的。故B正确。[来*源:中&国^教育出~版网@]
7. Clearly and thoughtfully________, the book inspires confidence in students who wish to seek their own answers.
A. writing
【考点】考察非谓语动词用法
【答案】C
【解析】本句考察的是非谓语动词做状语的用法。句中动词write与句子逐渐与the book构成逻辑上的被动关系，所以使用过去分词表示被动。排除AB项，因为AB项都表示主动，D项是现在分词的被动形式，表示动作正在被做。而本句的过去分词written表示被动和已经完成。句义：被写得很清楚很周到，这本书激励着那些追求自己生活中的答案的学生。故C正确。
【试题延伸】当分词做状语的时候，如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系，就使用现在分词做状语；当二者构成被动关系，使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前，就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系，可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。
【举一反三】
【答案】A
【考点】考查非谓语动词。
【解析】句意为“很多人认为1955年开业的加利福尼亚迪斯尼乐园非常有趣。”open开业，与Disneyland之间存在着被动关系；D项Being opened表正在进行，但开业的事实已经发生，故选A。
8. Life the like ________ ocean; Only ________strong-willed can reach the other shore.[
A. an; the
【考点】考察冠词
【答案】A
【解析】本题第一空使用不定冠词an修饰ocean泛指一个海洋。第二空后的strong-will是一个形容词，在形容词前面加上定冠词the表示“一类人”或者“一类事物”。The strong-willed指意志坚定的人。句义：生活就像是一个海洋，只有意志坚定的人才可以到达彼岸。故A正确。
【举一反三】I earn 10 dollars hour as supermarket cashier on Saturdays.
A.a;an
〖答案〗C
〖考点〗考查冠词的用法。
〖解析〗hour以元音开头, 前面加不定冠词an, an hour “每小时”；a表示 “一个”, 放在supermarket cashier前面表示类指, 说明属哪类人。译文：星期六我作为超市出纳员每小时挣10美元。a/an的用法规则：以元音音素开头的单词前用an, 以辅音音素开头的单词前用a。[%#中^&教*网]
9. My parents always _______ great importance to my getting a good education.
A. have
【考点】考察动词词义辨析和固定搭配
【答案】B
【解析】本题考察的是动词固定搭配。Have拥有；attach使…附着；accept接受；pay付钱；B项构成固定搭配attach
10. ---How long have you been learning English?——About four months. ----_________! Your English is so good.[zz*step.co#~%m@]
A. You can’t be serious
【考点】考察交际用语
【答案】A
【解析】本题考察的是交际用语。A你不是认真的吧！B你明白了。C我非常同意；D我被难住了。句义：—你学英语多长时间了？—大约4个月。—你不是认真的吧！你的英语太好了。根据句义说明A正确。
11. We won’t start the work until all the preparations __________.
A. are being made
【考点】考察时态
【答案】C
【解析】通常说来。在时间状语从句中使用一般现在时代替将来时，前面的主句中使用将来时。在高中英语中也使用现在完成时代替将来时，表示到将来某个时间已经完成的事情。句义：直到所有的准备工作都做好以后，我们才开始工作。故C正确。
12. English is a language shared by several diverse cultures, _________ uses it differently.
A. all of which
【考点】考察定语从句
【答案】B
【解析】本题是一个定语从句，先行词是several diverse cultures，在定语从句里使用which指代先行词作为介词of的宾语。排除CD项，这两项并不是定语从句。A项在定语从句中做主语的时候，谓语动词要使用复数形式，本题定语从句中的uses说明A项是错误的。B项中的each做主语，谓语动词使用单数形式。句义：英语是一个被很多不同的文化共同使用的语言，每一种语言使用英语的方法都是不一样的。故B正确。[@~中&^教*网]
【试题延伸】定语从句的考查主要就是考查关系词的辨析，关系代词that, which, whose, whom, as， who在句中做主语，宾语，表语或者定语；where, why, when在句中做状语。要分析句子成分，看缺少什么成分，就选用相应的关系词。
【举一反三】It is reported that two schools,
A.they both
〖答案〗D
〖考点〗此处考查定语从句
〖解析〗 应用关系代词, 因此排除A、C两项；B项中的both应置于are之后, 所以只有D.
13. The two countries are going to meet to _______ some barriers to trade between them.[www%.zzst*e@p.c#om~]
A. make up
【考点】考察动词短语辨析[来*源:中@^教网&%]
【答案】D
【解析】动词短语make up化妆，编造，弥补，组成；use up用完，耗尽；turn down拒绝，调低；break down机器出故障；身体垮掉；分解；划分（以便分析）；句义：这两个国家将要会谈来分解他们之间的贸易障碍。根据句义说明D项正确。
【举一反三】——You look upset. What’s the matter？
—— I had my proposal _______ again.
A．turned over
【答案】D
【考点】考查短语动词的辨析。
【解析】句意为“——你看上去不高兴，怎么啦？——我的建议又遭到拒绝了。”turn over翻身，翻转，把……移交；turn on打开（水、电视、收音机、灯、煤气等），(使)感兴趣; (使)兴奋；turn off关掉（电器、水龙头等），使厌烦；turn down关小（音量等），拒绝。根据句意选D
14. I think _______ impresses me about his painting is the colours he uses.
A. what
【考点】考察名词性从句
【答案】A
【解析】本题中的I think是一个插入语，可以省略。实际上本句中的what impresses me是一个主语从句，what既是这个主语从句的引导词，也在句中做主语。句义：关于他的画我认为给我留下深刻印象的是他所使用的颜色。That在名词性出中不充当成分，which指特定范围之内的“哪一个”；who通常都是指人。故A正确。
【举一反三】
A.It
〖答案〗B
〖考点〗考查主语从句。
〖解析〗分析题干结构 “
15. ________ the morning train, he would not have been late for the meeting.
A. Did he catch
【考点】考察省略和倒装以及虚拟语气
【答案】D
【解析】本题实际上是一个条件状语从句的虚拟语气，表示与过去事实相反。条件句中使用“过去完成式”，主句使用“情态动词+have done”；当条件句中的if省略的时候，要把had提前形成部分倒装。句义：如果他赶上了早班火车，他就不会开会迟到了。故D正确。[来@源:中#&%~国教育出版网]

A world-famous Canadian author, Margaret Atwood, has created the world’s first long-distance signing device(装置), the LongPen.
After many tiring book-signing from city to city, Atwood thought there must be a better way to do them . She hired some technical experts and started her own company in 2004. Together they designed the LongPen. Here’s how it works: The author writes a personal message and signature on a computer tablet(手写板) using a special pen. On the receiving end, in another city, a robotic arm fitted with a regular pen signs the book. The author and fan can talk with each other via webcams(网络摄像机) and computer screens。
Work on the LongPen began in Atwood’s basement(地下室). At first, they had no idea it would be as hard as it turned out to be. The device went through several versions, including one that actually had smoke coming out of it. The investing finally completed, teat runs w ere made in Ottawa, and the LongPen was officially launched at the 2006 London Book Fair. From here , Atwood conducted two transatlantic book signings of her latest book for fans in Toronto and New York City.
The LongPen produces a unique signature each time because it copies the movement of the author in real time. It has several other potential applications. It could increase credit card security and allow people to sign contracts from another province. The video exchange between signer and receiver can be recorded on DVD for proof
“It’s really fun”, said the owner of a bookstore, who was present for one of the test runs. “Obviously you can’t shake hands with the author， but there are chances for a connection that you don’t get from a regular book signing..
The response to the invention has not been all favorable. Atwood has received criticism from authors who think she is trying to end book tours. But she said, “It will be possible to go to places that you never got sent to before because the publishers couldn’t
41. Why did Atwood decide to invent the LongPen?
A. To set up her own company[
B. To win herself greater popularity
C. To write her books in a new way
C. To make book signings less tiring[
42. How does the LongPen work?
A.It copies the author’s signature and prints it on a book.
B. It signs a book while
C. The webcam sends the author’s signature to another city.
D. The fan uses it to copy the author’s signature himself.
43. What do we know about the invention of the LongPen?
A. It has been completed but not put into use.
B. The basement caught fire by accident.
C. Some versions failed before its test run.
D. The designers were well-prepared for the difficulty.
44. How could the LongPen be used in the future?
A. To draft legal documents.
B. To improve credit card security
C. To keep a record of the author’s ideas.
D. To allow author and fan to exchange videos
45. What could be inferred from Paragraphs 5 and 6?
A. Atwood doesn’t mean to end book tours.
B. Critics think the LongPen is of little use
C. Bookstore owners do not support the LongPen
D. Publishers dislike the LongPen for its high cost[来

【长难句解析】
“It will be possible to go to places that you never got sent to before because the publishers couldn’t
【翻译】很可能让你去一些你以前从来没有被送去的地方，因为出版商无法承担得起。
【分析】本句中it是一个形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式to go to places that you never got sent to before；定语从句修饰先行词places；后面的because引导的是原因状语从句because the publishers couldn’t
“Dad,” I say one day,‘let’s take a trip. Why don’t you fly and meet me?”
My father had just reired after 27years as a manage for IBM, His job filled his day, his thought, his life. While he woke up and took a warm shower, I screamed under a freezing waterfall Peru. While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch, I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.
My father sees me drifting aimlessly, nothing to show for my 33 years but a passport full of funny stamps. He wants me to settle down, but now I want him to find an adventure.
He agrees to travel with me through the national parks. We meet four weeks later in Rapid City.
“ What is our first stop?” asks my father.
“What time is it?”
“Still don’t have a watch?”
Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore. As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(花岗岩), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of little boy.
“Unbelievable,” he says, “How was this done?”
A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son.
We stare up and I ask myself, Would I ever devote my life to anything?
No directions, no goasl I always used to hear those words in my father’s voice. Now I hear them in my own.
The next day we’re at Yellowstone National Park, where we have a picnic.
“Did you ever travel with your dad? I ask.
“Only once,” he says. “ I never spoke much with my father. We loved each other---but never said it. Whatever he could give me, he gave.”[
The kast sebtebce----it’s probably the same thing I’s say about my father. And what I’d want my child to say about me.
In Glacier National Park, my father says, “I’ve never seen water so blue.” I have, in several places of the world, I can keep traveling, I realize--- and maybe a regular job won’t be as dull as I feared.[
Weeks after our trip, I call my father.
“The photos from the trip are wonderful,” he says.” We have got to take another trip like that sometime.
I tell him I’ve learn decided to settle down, and I’m wearing a watch.

It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(免疫的), for I was bornd in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced –and beat—a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty.
Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrahams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise--- the most familiar and natural of all.
It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the
The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don’t dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.
I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.

第II卷
第三部分： 写作
第一节： 阅读表达（共5小题； 每小题2分， 满分10分）
阅读短文， 按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Last December, Doris Low turned 90. Once a week she still drives to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) in Toronto, where she helps transform literature into Braille(盲文) to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hears and minds of blind readers. She has been volunteering her time and talents to such enterprises foe more than 40 years.
After working in the business world for a while, Low got fed up. So she turned to teaching at a technical school and later moved into the library.
Low’s mother liked reading. As her eyes began to fail, low read to her. Then “ hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille, I decided to give it a try.” In 1973, she was certified as a braille transcriber (转译者) and began transcribing books as a volunteer for the CNIB library.
The job was strenuous ---she could get to the end of a page, make a mistake on the last line, and have to do the whole thing again. For a number of years, low also worked in the CNIB sound studio reading books onto tape. Three years ago, she took up proofreading (校对) at the CNIB’s word factory.
In April, during Volunteer Week, the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions. Thanks to volunteers like Low, the CNIB library has got more than 80,000 accessible materials for people unable to read traditional print. “ I can’t imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited from Doris’s contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years--- and she is still doing so,” said a CNIB official.[来源*:%zzs#tep.&^com]
“For me,” said Low, “the CNIB is more than just a place to volunteer. Three things matter most in my life: a little play, a little work, a little love. I’ve found them all here.”
56. What does Low still do at the age of 90 at the CNIB? ( no more than 10 words)
57. why did Low learn Braille? ( no more than 15 words)
58. what does the underlined word “strenuous” most probably mean?(1 word)
59. What are Low’s contributions to the CNIB? ( no more than 10 words)
60. What do you think of Low? Give your reasons. ( no more than 20 words)
56. 【答案】 She helps transform literature into Braille ( for blind readers / the blind)
【试题解析】细节题。根据第一段第2行where she helps transform literature into Braille(盲文) to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hears and minds of blind readers.可知她仍然在为盲人的阅读和知识而翻译那些盲文。
57. 【答案】 (Because ) her mother’s eyes began to fail ans she heard an/ the advertisement.
【试题解析】细节题。根据文章第三段1,2行Low’s mother liked reading. As her eyes began to fail, low read to her. Then “ hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille, I decided to give it a try.”可知她的母亲眼睛看不见了，她又听说古人人们学习盲文的广告，所以她决定这样做。
58. 【答案】…. Hard/ tiring / Tough[
【试题解析】推理题。根据下一句she could get to the end of a page, make a mistake on the last line, and have to do the whole thing again.可知如果她犯了一个错误，那么要全部都重新来过。说明这份工作很困难，要求很细心。而且很乏味。
59. she has brailled and proofread hundreds of books, and read books onto tape.
【试题解析】细节题。根据文章倒数第二段后三行I can’t imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited from Doris’s contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years--- and she is still doing so,” said a CNIB official.可知她为这个图书馆转换了很多盲文书籍还为很多的磁带配音。
60 【答案】Low is kind and helpful because she has devoted much time to transcribing books into Braille as a volunteer.
Or Low is a kin-hearted lady with a positive attitude toward life because she takes delight in helping others.
【试题解析】她是一个很善良的人，作为志愿者她为了看不见的盲人转换了很多盲文书籍还为很多的磁带配音。根据文章最后Three things matter most in my life: a little play, a little work, a little love. I’ve found them all here.”可知她以帮助他人为乐。
