  W: Now, can I get a stopover on an excursion fare?

  M: Yes, you are allowed only one stopover on the excursion fare.

  W: Oh, I see, only one.

  M: Yes. But of course, if you pay the full return fare then you can have unlimited stopovers. There' s Singapore, Kuwait, Athens, you've really got quite a lot of choices you know.

  W: Oh, It sounds good. You see, I've got a two-week holiday after the

  conference. How much is the full fare?

  M: The full fare? Well, that's really quite a lot. It's £ 1,204.

  W: Yes. Well, it' s once in a lifetime, you know. The thing is actually that I' m absolutely afraid of flying. I've never done it before.

  W: Oh, that's great! Thanks very much.

  Questions 18 ~ 21 :

  W: Well, Mr. Steve, we have had an interesting discussion about your

  work. Now, tell us something about your after work activities.

  M: I guess not much different from everyone else. I' m fond of sports, and I run about 3 miles every day. I particularly enjoy cross-country running, where you have to run across fields, jump over streams and soon. While I' m running I think about all kinds of things, and I can be-come more healthy. Next year I' m going to try the London Marathon. It's a long, hard race—26 miles, or 42 kilometers and you have to be tough to finish, but I want to do it very much. I worry a bit about get-ting old, and I' d like to prove to myself that I' m still almost as well as I was twenty years ago. I' m interested in climbing as well as running. I' II never become an expert climber, but I know what I' m doing in the mountains. I successfully completed a course in snow and ice climbing when I was younger, and I've done a lot of easy climbs in the Alps during the last few years. My wife doesn't share my interest in mountains. She agreed to go climbing with me once, but she found that she felt sick as soon as she reached above 1,000 meters, so we decided to follow different hobbies.

  W : You certainly seem to enjoy various types of recreation. All right, Mr.Smith. Thanks for your interesting talk.

  Questions 22 ~ 25 :

  w: Next! Good morning, can I help you?

  M: This place is a madhouse! Everybody is pushing and shoving!

  W: Yes, I know. We are shorthanded and it is very crowded today. Now what can I do for you?

  M: I want a ticket to New York.

  W: Okay. One way or round trip?

  M: One way, of course. I don' t want to hang around here any longer. I was here in Los Angeles last year and I hated it. I come here on business every year and" I hate it. It' s too spread out, too smoggy !

  W: That' 11 be $ 375. How would you like to pay?

  M: Cash, of course, i don' t believe in plastic money or credit cards, or

  any of that. Listen, can you hurry it up?

  W: I' m doing my best, Sir. Aisle or window seat?

  M: Window seat.

  W: Smoking or nonsmoking?

  M: Nonsmoking, of course ! Oh, by the way, I' m supposed to get a special meal. Doctor' s order—I can' t eat meat. Last time I had a special salad plate. I'd like one of those this time, too.

  W: I' m sorry. I' m not able to do that. The special salad is not available during this flight.

  M: What! You can't give me my special salad?

  W: I'm sorry. I would like to, but I simply cannot.

  M: Well, I don' t give up so easily. Where' s your supervisor?

  第二部分 英语知识运用

  参考译文

  美国大部分的广播台和电视台都是商业性质的,也就是说,他们通过播放节目或广告赚钱。私人公司从这些商业台购买广播或电视的时段给他们的产品做广告。有线电视台也属于商业台,虽然他们并不经常播放广告。为了收看有线电视,人们必须每个月都向有线电视公司交纳一些钱。

  不同的是,公共广播台和电视台不播广告,人们无须付费就能观看。这些广播电视台的资金来源是政府,或是私人企业,又或者是他们节目的一部分听众或观众。联邦政府和一些大机构会向公共广播电视台提供补贴和大量财物。小型的商业机构或个人也向当地的公共广播和电视台捐款。

  美国广播公司、哥伦比亚广播公司和全国广播公司是美国的3大主要的商业广播和电视网。大多数地区性的商业广播和电视台都是从这3大全国性的电视网络接收节目。例如,每个电视网都有一档晚间新闻节目,地方台在播放本地新闻之外也会加播这档节目。

  答案及解析

  26.A【解析】 that’s to say那就是说,即换句话说。此题中D项干扰性较大,读者往往因which引导非限定性定语从句而误选D,但引导非限定性定语从句时,该从句应为—个整体,即旬中不出现逗号。

  27.B【解析】考查对上下文的理解,program的意思是“电视节目”。

  28.B【解析】本句意为“私人公司从这些商业台购买广播或电视的时段给他们的产品做广告”。time意为“时段”。

  29.D【解析】由本句及下旬的“though they don’t usually have advertisements”推知此处应填advertise,即“为…做广告”。

  30.C【解析】商业性电视台与非商业性电视台的区分是其是否出售其广告时间或向电视观众征收费用。由后文“…people must pay the cable TV company a certain amount of money…”推知cable television stations仍为商业性电台。

  31.A【解析】此句为目的状语从句,D项也指“为了”,表目的,但它往往位于句中,而不置于句首。in order to“为了”,常置句首。

  32.B【解析】根据常识,看电视至少要按月交付收看费用。

  33.C【解析】on one hand…on the other hand为固定搭配,意为“一方面…另一方面”。

  34.D【解析】此句是将“Public radio and television stations”与“commercialstations”对比。一个是付费,另一个是免费,可推出此处D最恰当。

  35.A【解析】从后一句的“from some of the 36 who watch or listen to their programs”可以推断出,此处是并列结构,应该填介词“from”。

  36.D【解析】空格后who引导的定语从句是对空格所填选项的进一步解释。“who watch orlisten to their programs”中的“wh0”显然为“audiences”。

  37.B【解析】此短文介绍的是美国国内广播电视台的情况。此处应为the Federal Govemment,即“联邦政府”。

  38.C【解析】该句意为“联邦政府与一些大型企业拨款给这些公共电视台”,可知C为正确选项,grant意为“补助金”。

  39.A【解析】本段主要讲述公共电视台的资金来源,部分为政府及大型企业的拨款另一部分即为本句所涉及的来自small business and people的捐款。

  40.B【解析】ABC、CBS和NBC为美国三大商业广播电视台。major意为“主要的,重要的’:,词意最为恰当。

  41.D【解析】由下旬中的“…from one of these national networks.”可知ABC、CBS和NBC为美国的national networks,即“国家性的网络”。

  42.B【解析】此题考查对文章的理解,get A from B意为“由B处得到A”。

  43.D【解析】此题考查固定搭配,for example意为“例如”。

  44.A【解析】此空格前有一逗号,故知此应为which引导的非限制性定语从句。此处which代指前半句中的“a TV news program”,在后半句中充当宾语。

  45.C【解析】该句意为“地方电台除了播放他们自己的当地新闻节目外,还播放来自其他网络的节目”。两句话是对比关系,所以应该选own,意为“自身的?。

  第三部分阅读理解

  Part A

  参考译文

  家庭是一个释义很灵活的词语,在不同的国家它有着不同的含义。但是当英国人说他们的社会是建立在家庭生活上时,他们指的是狭义上的家庭,特别是对于欧洲人来说,家庭指的就是爸爸、妈妈和孩子住在自己的房子里,家庭就是经济单位、社会单位。然而对于每个英国人来说,结婚就意味着独立而崭新的家庭生活开始了,所以婚姻对于英国人来说有着非比寻常的重要意义。无论是对于男人还是女人,结婚都意味着离开自己的父母开始单独生活。丈夫的首要责任是照顾妻子,而妻子的首要赘任是照顾丈夫。丈夫安全权负责妻子经济上的开销,妻子要操持整个新家。孩子是他们共同的责任,也只能是他们的责任。男女双方的父母、兄弟、姐妹、姑姑和叔叔没有人能干扰到夫妻两人的生活——他们是自己的主人。

  读过简·奥斯汀的小说《傲慢与偏见》的人都知道,从前富裕人家的女孩的婚姻都是由她们的父母安排的。也就是说,为女儿找个合适的、最好是有钱的夫君是父母的责任。他们会游说那个年轻人主动向他们女儿求婚。那个时代,女孩还被保护起来待在父母的家中。把女儿嫁出去时,给新婚夫妇的经济补贴叫做嫁妆。今时不同往日了。现如今,大

  多数的女孩子毕业之后都有工作,且结婚之前经济独立。这样会导致两种结果:女孩可以自己选择丈夫,但是她也没有了嫁妆。凡事都有两面性,女孩儿独立这件事也不例外。但这对于女孩子来说也许是件好事情,因为她们的社会地位提高了,她们不再是父母和丈夫的附属品。

  答案及解析

  46.B 【解析】本题是句意理解题。elastic“有弹性的,可伸缩的”。这句话用在开头是表明观点,后面写出不同时期的家庭和婚姻情况,可知“家庭”一词的含义也是不同的。

  47.C 【解析】本题是细节题。答案见第一段“He will be entirely responsible for herfinancial support,and she for the running ofthe new home.”。

  48.A 【解析】本题是细节题。根据第一段最后一句,“男女双方的父母、兄弟、姐妹、姑姑和叔叔没有人能干扰到夫妻两人的生活—他们是自己的主人”。

  49.C 【解析】本题是推论题。第二段中提到的小说《傲慢与偏见》中有对

  旧时代婚姻状况的描写,这是当时英国社会生活的—个方面。

  50.D 【解析】本题是细节题,见全文的最后一句,种种事实表明如今的女子社会地位在逐渐提高。

  史蒂维兰特·莫里斯在美国是个家喻户晓的名字。倘若你问史蒂维兰特·莫里斯,他会告诉你,失明并不算是残疾。史蒂维兰特是早产儿,在20世纪50年代就彻底失明了。他后来改名叫做史蒂维·旺德——是作曲家、歌手、钢琴家。获得10项格莱美奖,史蒂维因其对音乐界所作出的突出贡献而广受赞誉。

  当史蒂维还是小孩子的时候,就学会了不要为力所不能及的事情困扰,而应该集中精力做自己能做的事情。父母鼓励他尽量同视力正常的哥哥们一块参加活动。他们帮助他训练听力,残障人士只有依赖听觉才能独立生活。

  因为声音对史蒂维来说很重要,所以他小小年纪就开始用各种声音做实验。他会同时敲打很多东西,然后用嗓音模仿这些声音。他还经常用声音来娱乐自己,唱歌、敲玩具鼓、吹玩具口琴、听收音机。

  史蒂维很快就不再玩玩具乐器,而转向真正的乐器。他首先学敲鼓,然后又学会了口琴和钢琴。他加入了教堂的少年唱诗班成为领唱。晚上和周末时,史蒂维就在邻居家门前的走廊上演奏各种乐器并演唱流行歌曲和布鲁斯曲调。

  史蒂维的一段演唱被罗尼·怀特听到了,他是一个叫做“奇迹”的流行乐队的成员。罗尼马上就注意到史蒂维的才华,带他到Hitsville USA总裁倍瑞·格迪那儿去试唱。HitsvilleUSA那时是一家大型的唱片录制公司。现改名为摩顿。史蒂维在1962年12岁时录制了第一首热卖单曲“指尖”,而史蒂维剩下的故事已经记载到音乐史中了。

  答案及解析

  51.B 【解析】本文主要讲述了Stevie的音乐天赋,其他=个选项过于笼统。

  52.A【解析】虽然开头有“Ask Steveland Morris and he’ll tell you that blindness is not necessarily disabling.”,该句可以证明Stevie的坚强性格,但这并不能说明那是童年时发生的事情。

  53.D【解析】该句的意思是“史蒂维很快就不再玩玩具乐器,而转向真

  正的乐器。”

  54.C【解析】Berry Cordy是一家录音公司的总裁,文中并未提及他帮助Stevie建立了唱片公司,因此c项与文章内容相悖。

  55.D【解析】“Fingertips”是一首热卖单曲,使史蒂维从此走向了辉煌的音乐里程,该曲名同时也暗示了史蒂维虽然失明但仍然可以用指尖弹奏出美妙乐曲。

  捕渔业的收入仅占全球经济的1%,但就地区经济来说.它对人类的生存作出了巨大贡献。海洋捕渔业为世界人民供应的蛋白质要多于牛肉、家禽或是其他动物资源。

  特别是捕渔业不需要占有土地,而且任何人都可以从事捕渔业,因此在发展中国家这常常是最后的职业选择—只有人们别无选择时才会去捕鱼。全世界大约有2亿人以捕鱼为生。仅东南亚,就有5百多万人全天捕鱼。在智利北部,40%的人靠海边居住。过去,纽芬兰的大部分工作都是关于捕渔业或是其相关服务业—一直到20世纪90年代初鳕鱼产业的倒闭,使得数以百万计的人失业。

  虽然关于保护自然资源的争论常常使工作和环境之间产生矛盾,实际上,恢复鱼类数量反而会增加就业机会。美国国家海洋渔场服务中心的麦克尔·P·塞森伟恩和安德鲁·A·罗森勃格估计,如果我们能使已灭绝的鱼类复活,从长远来看,美国国民生产总值可增加大约80亿美元,并新增大约30万个工作机会。如果鱼类被恢复而且管理得法,全世界的年总捕鱼量会增加大约2千万公吨。但是,要恢复生态平衡,维持财政收益和经济稳定就得持续降低商业捕渔业的生产量,这样野生世界的平衡才能得以恢复。

  捕渔业劳动力的必要缩减并不一定以失业为代价。政府可以通过增加就业机会,将拨给高度商业化的捕鱼船的补助金发放给渔民来减少对鱼类的压力。每投资100万元,工业化捕鱼企业只需要l一5个人就够了,而小规模的捕鱼企业需要雇60~3,000人。工业化的捕鱼产业会造成鱼类灭绝,这就会威胁到数以千万计的小规模捕鱼的渔民,因为鱼类是他们赖以生存的根本。

  答案及解析

  56.B 【解析】首段点出“Marine fisheries contribute more to the world’s supply of protein than beef,poultry or any other animalsource.”。

  57.B 【解析】由本段主旨句“Fishing typically doesn’t need land owner-ship,and because it remains,generally,open to all,it is often theemployer of last resort in thedeveloping world.”可推知“man Can always turn to fishing for employment”。

  58.D【解析】第三段引述了Michael P.Sissenwine and Andrew A.Rosen-berg关于restoration of fish populations的论证,作者显然是为了自己的观点“00lIgelNe natural re901.1rces”找理论证据。

  59.C【解析】末段点明了keep the balance between jobs and the environment的方法。因为机械化捕鱼需要的人少,而小规模的捕鱼则需要大量渔民,这样可以保证渔民就业,又可以减缓鱼类灭绝,增加国民收入。

  60.A【解析】由59题的分析之选项A为最佳选项,选项B、C、D违背文意。

  保拉:

  未来会怎样取决于我们今天的行动。当我们意识到我们自己能够创造未来,我们就承担起对未来的责任——未来并不是命运或是剐的我们无法控制的力量强加给我们的。我们自己通过有所为和有所不为来创建未来。

  约翰夫人:

  将来会发生更多难以置信的事情。在未来,人们将能够根据他们大脑电力活动的强度来预测自己的表现。克莱默博士发现人脑电力活动的强度可以通过头皮来测量。老板可以通过测量头皮得知大脑活动,从而断定一个工人是否表现出色、工作努力或者疲劳过度无法很好地完成任务。.

  玛丽:

  在新世纪里,我们身边会发生更加激动人心的事情。据说心脏的化学物质受到刺激时会激起你对脂肪的欲望。也就是说,对这种化学凝胶的干扰会导致吃得过多的问题。萨拉·李波维兹博士在一篇学术论文中指出,可以通过药物抑制的影响来控制对高脂食物的食欲。

  朱蒂:

  未来我们的生活会发生显著的改变。毫无疑问,计算机会在我们的生活中发挥重要作用。你去看医生的时候会发现医生不会依靠书本,而是通过电脑屏幕和可视信息做出诊断。你家中的电脑会就你的健康提出互动性的问题,而且能向你展示你的某种行为将产生的结果。

  嘉丽:

  将来,计算机会改变医生诊治病人的方法。而且医生们会改变他们对药的传统定义。尽管有些西医会开缓解压力,治疗心脏病,抵制肥胖以及医治其他危害病人生命的药方。现在大部分的医生还是要求病人注重健康的生活方式,通过改善饮食和多做运动保持身体健康。
