Part Ⅰ Writing

A Tour to Mount Tai
I am delighted to learn that my foreign friend, Bill, is going to take vacation in my hometown. For the sake of his hospitality I enjoyed in England, I will show him around the landscape, among which Mount Tai unquestion-ably on the top of my list.
Centuries ago, at the summit of the mountain, Confucius exclaimed that the world was small; in modern times, everyone is bound to appreciate its spectacularity and sacredness. Mount Tai is more than a mountain; it is a place which symbolizes hope and auspiciousness, embodying profound culture. Furthermore, Mount Tai is considered to be scared to the point where almost every ancient Chinese emperor came here to make offerings to Heaven and Earth, praying for a prosperous country and a peaceful living environment.
Visiting Mount Tai is more than a mountain climbing excursion, but a hands-on engagement in ancient culture and contemporary prosperity. Thus, I assure you that you will like this wonderful experience.

Part Ⅱ Listening Comprehension

A. 短对话
1. 参考原文:
W: I can’t seem to reach the tea at the back of the cupboard.
M: Oh… Why don’t you use the ladder? You might strain your shoulder.
Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?
点评:本题考点:计划或者建议。考点在第二个男士的提议。答案选B:Use a ladder to help her reach the tea. strain v.表示拉伸,扭伤 strain your shoulder 拉伤肩膀。
2. 参考原文:
W: Since it’s raining so hard, let’s go and see the new exhibits.
M: That’s a good idea. Mary Johnson is one of my favorite painters.
Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?
点评:本题考点:对话场景题。通过女士提到的“new exhibits”和男士提到的“favorite painters”可推出答案为D:Outside an art gallery.
3. 参考原文:
M: I hear the students gave the new teacher an unfair evaluation.
W: It depends on which student you are talking about.
Q: What does the woman imply?
点评:本题考查语义推断。考点在第二个女士的回应,面对男士的说法,她并没有表示认同,而是婉转表达了质疑。对应选项B. She does not quite agree with what the man said. “unfair evaluation”意思是“不公平的评价”。
4. 参考原文:
W: It must have taken you a long time to fix up all these book shelves.
M: It wasn’t too bad. I got Doris to do some of them.
Q: What does the man mean?
点评:本题考查事实细节。考点在第二个男士的话。对应选项C. Doris fixed up some of the book shelves.原文中男士说的 “do some of them”指的就是修理书架。
5. 参考原文:
W: Rod, I hear you’ll be leaving at the end of this month. Is it true?
M: Yeah. I’ve been offered a much better position with another firm. I’d be a fool to turn it down.
Q: Why is the man quitting his job?
点评:本题考查因果关系。考点在第二个男士所解释的原因。对应D. He has found a better position. “position”即“职位”, “firm”即“公司”。 “quit”即“放弃,辞职”的意思。
6. 参考原文:
W: I honestly don’t want to continue the gardening tomorrow, Tony?
M: Neither do I. But I think we should get it over within this weekend.
Q: What does the man mean?
点评:本题考查转折关系。考点在第二个男士语义转折之后的内容。对应选项A. They should finish the work as soon as possible. 选项 “finish”同义替换原文中的 “get it over”,而 “as soon as possible”则改写了 “within this weekend”.
7. 参考原文:
W: You’ve already furnished your apartment?
M: I found some used furniture that was dirt cheap.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
点评:本题考查事实细节。考点在第二个男士所说的话,习惯用语 “dirt cheap”就是“很便宜,白菜价”的意思。对应答案D. The furniture the man bought is inexpensive. 其中 “inexpensive”同义改写了“dirt cheap”。
8. 参考原文:
W: Has the mechanic called the bus repairers?
M: Not yet .I’ll let you know when he calls.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
点评:本题考查语义推断。考点要结合女士的提问和男士的回答。对应B. The woman is waiting for a call. “mechanic”指“机械工”,“bus repairers”指“公车修理师”。
B.长对话和短文
Conversation one:
Questions 9 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
9. Why couldn’t the woman’s roommate attend the Shakespearean English class that afternoon?
10. What favor is the woman going to do for her roommate?
11. What does the woman want to know at the end of the conversation?
答案:
9. 点评:前2句都是礼节性问答,第3句开始出现新人物 “Janet Holmes”, 即考点预警信号。关键信息就是女士接下来的回答:“It’s just that she submitted a job application yesterday and the company asked her in for an interview today”.对应A选项:She had a job interview to attend.
10. 点评:前文刚刚提到“Janet Holmes”所遇到的问题(因面试不能上课交作业),接着就提到了解决这一问题的方法,关键听取原文中“I’m calling to see whether it would be OK if I gave you her essay.”对应选项C:Submit her roommate’s assignment.
11. 点评:从四个选项都以特殊疑问词开头的特征可以预判,本题考点是某人的疑问。关键信息是女士在最后所提到的问题:“And Dr. Ellis, one more thing, could you tell me where your office is?”对应选项A. Where Dr. Ellis’s office is located.
【综合点评】:本题完全符合长对话 “问答结构”的惯有出题套路,分别针对problem和solution进行提问,而且并没有出现逆序出题现象为难考生,整体难度一般。
Conversation 2:
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
12. What does the man say about his job?
13. Which train does the man take to work every day?
14. How does the man feel about commuting to work every day now?
15. How does the man spend his time on the morning train?
答案:
12.点评:第一题完全符合“前3句出考点”的套路,考点信息出现在明显的信号词 “But”之后:“But it’s bearable now that I’ m used to it”。 bearable 表示可以忍受的,be used to 表示为习惯做某事。对应选项C:He can handle it quite well.
13. 点评:本题考查时间细节,所听即所选。关键信息是“It was terrible at first, especially getting up before dawn to catch that 6:30 train” 对应选项B:The 6:30 train.
14. 点评:本题考点再次出现在明显信号词But之后:“But now I quite enjoy it.”对应选项C:The time on the train is enjoyable
15. 点评:长对话最后一题往往对应整个对话的结尾部分。女士最后问男士在车上如何消磨时光,男士的回答则是考点信息:“In the morning, I just sit in comfort and read the papers to catch up with the news.”对应选项A:Reading newspapers.
【综合点评】:本题完全符合顺序出题原则,有2道题的答案更是直接出现在信号词But之后,答案直来直往基本不需要进行推断,出题思路中规中矩,整体难度一般。
Passage One
16. What should American college students do to cope with their heavy reading assignments?
17. What suggestion does the speaker give about marking a textbook?
18. How should students prepare for an exam according to the speaker?
答案:
16. 点评:根据短文理解“前3句出考点”原则,如果本文前1、2句的因果关系没有成为考点,考点则顺延到第3句和第4句,关键信息为“They need to extract as much information as possible from the first or second reading.”extract表示提取、选取, 对应选项D:Get key information by reading just once or twice.
17. 点评:从第二段开始,marking skill被反复提到,无疑是重要考点。就做标记的技巧,作者一共提了3个建议,其中 “Third, decide on your own system for marking”几乎完整地被选项A照搬下来:Choose one's own system of marking.根据所听基本即所选原则,答案就是A。
18. 点评:最后一题考察了转折结构,考点信息出现在明显的信号词 ‘Instead”之后:“Instead, you just need to review your marks and you can save a lot of time.”对应选项B:By reviewing only the marked parts.
Passage Two
19. What is taken for granted by most people?
20. What do doctors think of Al Herpin's case?
21. What could have accounted for Al Herpin's sleeplessness?
答案:
19. 点评:答案出现在明显的信号词 “But”之后,即:“But everyone needs some rest to stay alive.”对应选项D:Everybody needs some sleep for survival.
20. 点评:答案出现在明显的信号词 “But”之后,即:“But a man named Al Herpin turned out to be a rare exception”对应选项C:It is a rare exception. rare表示稀有的,少见的。
21. 点评:根据顺序出题原则,本题对应文章结尾部分。文章最后提到医生对Al Herpin不用睡觉感到困惑,紧接着就解释了原因。 “clue”(表示线索)是本题的考点信号词,随后就是考点信息:“He remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he had been born.” 对应选项B:His mother's injury just before his birth.
22. What do we learn about Hetty Green as a child?
23. How did Hetty Green become rich overnight?
24. Why was Hetty Green much hated?
25. What do we learn about Hetty's daughter?
答案:
22. 点评:本题略有难度。考点即没有出现在前3句话,也没有出现在明显的信号词之后,但是只要提前划记好了本题关键词,根据“所听基本即所选”原则还是可以找到答案C:She developed a strong interest in finance. 该选项对应原文信息 “At the age of six she started reading the daily financial newspapers and opened her own bank account.”
23. 点评:本题略有难度。考点紧跟在上一题考点句之后,即 “Her father died when she was 21 and she inherited 7.5 million dollars.”对应选项D. She inherited a big fortune from her father.
24. 点评:本题难度较大。错误选项中的细节有较强干扰性,但如果考生对最后一段的整体结构有所把握,就会发现在第一句提到了Hetty的 “meanness”(吝啬,小气) 之后,后文 “always argued about prices” “buy broken biscuits” “refused to pay for a doctor”这些细节都属于次要信息,是对“meanness”的例证。对应选项A. She was extremely mean with her money.
25. 点评:本题考点就是本文最后一句话 “her daughter built a hospital with her money”对应选项B. She built a hospital with her mother's money.

Part III Reading Comprehension

Section A

选词填空
题目一:
本文选自2006年5月16日的经济学人
http://www.economist.com/node/5636369
参考原文
A nation of non-readers: A strange and costly disregard for books
MANY Brazilians cannot read. In 2000, a quarter of those aged 15 and older were functionally illiterate. Many simply do not want to. Only one literate adult in three reads books. The averageBrazilian reads 1.8 non-academic books a year—less than half the figure in Europe and the United States. In a recent survey of reading habits, Brazilians came 27th out of 30 countries, spending 5.2 hours a week with a book. Argentines, their neighbours, ranked 18th.
In rare accord, government, businesses and NGOs are all striving in different ways to change this. On March 13th the government launched a National Plan for Books and Reading. This seeks to boost reading, by founding libraries and financing publishers among other things. The Brazil Reader Institute, an NGO, brings books to people: it has installed lending libraries in two S?o Paulo metro stations, and is planning one in a Carnival samba school. It is starting to be common to see characters in television soap operas shown reading. Cynics note that Globo, the biggest broadcaster, is also a big publisher of books, newspapers and magazines.
One discouragement to reading is that books are expensive. At S?o Paulo's book fair this week, “O Código Da Vinci” was on sale for 32 reais—more than a tenth of the official minimum monthly wage. Most other books have small print-runs, pushing up their price.
But Brazilians' indifference to books has deeper roots. Centuries of slavery meant the country's leaders long neglected education. Primary schooling became universal only in the 1990s. Radio was ubiquitous by the 1930s; libraries and bookshops have still not caught up. “The electronic experience came before the written experience,” says Marino Lobello, of the Brazilian Chamber of Books, an industry body.
All this means that Brazil's book market has the biggest growth potential in the western world, reckons Mr Lobello. That notion has attracted foreign publishers, such as Spain's Prisa-Santillana, which bought a local house last year. American evangelical publishers are eyeing the market for religious books, which outsell fiction in Brazil.
But reading is a difficult habit to form. Brazilians bought fewer books in 2004—289m, including textbooks distributed by the government—than they did in 1991. Last year the director of Brazil's national library quit after a controversial tenure. He complained that he had half the librarians he needed and termites had eaten much of the collection. Along with crime and high interest rates, that ought to be a cause for national shame.
答案及解析
36. N. simply
本空所在句不缺其它成分,该空应为副词。备选副词J) particularly(专门地、特别地)与N) simply(简单地、仅仅)中,simply符合句意“许多人仅仅是不想学着识字。”
37. A. average
本空修饰名词Brazilian,需要形容词。备选形容词A) average(平均的、普通的)E) expensive(昂贵的)K) potential(潜在的)中,average符合句意“普通的巴西人每年读1.8本非学术书目”。且reads 1.8 non-academic books a year也在提示这里是在描述平均值。
38. M. ranked
本空是该句谓语,缺动词。且与前句并列,而前句用的过去式,因此本空需动词过去式。备选的有C) distributed(分发、散布)、F) launched(发射、发动)、G) named(取名、提名)、H) neglected(忽视)、L) quit(退出、辞职)、M) ranked(排名)和O) treasured(珍惜)。能与空后的18th构成合理搭配的只有ranked,表示“排在第18位”。另外前句描述的也是巴西的排名。
39. F. launched
本空是该句谓语,缺动词。由于描述的是过去的日子,需要过去式。备选的有C) distributed(分发、散布)、F) launched(发射、发动)、G) named(取名、提名)、H) neglected(忽视)、L) quit(退出、辞职)和O) treasured(珍惜)。本空后的专有概念National Plan for Books and Reading明显是个活动或计划之类,能与之构成合理搭配的只有launched,表示“发起了此计划”。
40. E. expensive
本空做表语,主语是books,形容词、动词分词可能性较大。注意到后句提到push up their price,因此这里描述的应该是书的价格,expensive符合话题。
41. H. neglected
本空是所在从句的谓语,且描述的是过去、主句也为过去式,因此这里需要过去式。备选的有C) distributed(分发、散布)、G) named(取名、提名)、H) neglected(忽视)和L) quit(退出、辞职)O) treasured(珍惜)。注意前句引出的话题是巴西对书籍的漠视,本句提到的也是巴西长期奴隶制的影响,因此本空应选择neglected,表示巴西“长期忽视教育”。distributed意思不合理,treasured则与这里想表示的意思相反。
42. K. potential
本空一种可能是副词,但备选副词只剩particularly,而其意思在这里并不合适,这里也没有构成其所表示的递进关系的条件。因此只能考虑本空另一种可能:名词。备选的有B) collection(收集)、D) exhibition(展览)和K) potential(潜力)。potential是唯一意思合理的,表示巴西的图市场“有着最大的增长潜力”。
43. C. distributed
本空位于名词后,应为后置定语,需要动词分词;by提示了这里需要过去分词。备选的有C) distributed(分发、散布)、G) named(取名、提名)和L) quit(退出、辞职)O) treasured(珍惜)。这里意思合理的只有distributed,表示“被政府分发的书籍”。
44. L. quit
本空是该句谓语,其描述的是过去,需要过去式,备选的有G) named(取名、提名)、L) quit(退出、辞职)、和O) treasured(珍惜)。同时该空后无宾语,因此必须是不及物动词,符合此要求的只有quit,表示国家图书馆负责人辞职。
45. B. collection
空前的定冠词提示本空需要名词,备选的有B) collection(收集)和D) exhibition(展览)。这里意思较合理的是collection,它可以表示图书馆的馆藏书籍。意思是“白蚁吃掉了大部分馆藏书籍”。

Part IV Translation

China should further develop nuclear energy because currently,nuclear power accounts for only 2% of its total generating capacity . Such proportion ranks the thirtieth in all the countries possessing nuclear power, which is almost the last.
After Japan’s nuclear power accident in March 2011, nuclear power development in China was suspended, so was the approval of new nuclear power plants. Also, the national safety check for the nuclear power was carried out. IT was not until October 2012 that the approval was prudently resumed.
With the improvement of technology and safety measures, there is little possibility for nuclear accidents to happen. In other words, there won’t be any trouble to develop and exploit the nuclear power.
