13learnstoobeyanycommandthatmightleaditsownerintodanger.从这两句中可看出看家不属于导盲犬训练范围内的技能。28.Howlongdoesthemostimportanttrainingcourselast?【解析】[C]最重要的训练课程持续四周。文中明确指出了本题答案。Themostimportantpartofthetrainingcourseisafourweekprogram,从此句中即可看出。PassageTwoPeopledreamsfourtosixtimesanight.TheydreamwhiletheyareintheREMstageofsleep,whichmeansrapideyemovementstageinone’ssleep.SleepersgointotheREMstageaboutevery90minutes.Thefirstdreamofthenightmaylastabouttenminutes.Eachdreamgetsalittlelonger.Thelastdreamofthenightmaybeanhourlong.Peopleneedtheirdreams.Youngerchildrenspendmoretimedreaming.BabiesspendalmosthalfoftheirsleepintheREMstage.Oneexperimentshowedthateveryoneneedstodream.Doctorsgavesomepeoplesleepingpills.Thesesleepingpillsdidn’tletthemgoingtoREMsleep.Afterafewnightswithoutdreams,theybegantofeelbad.Theybecameangryeasily,theyworriedalot,andtheywantedtofightwitheveryone.Thentheystoppedtakingthesleepingpills.Theyallbegantodreamallnightforafewnightstocatchup.Whydopeopledream?Dreamsgivethemtimetofindtheanswerstosomeoftheirproblems.Iftheythinktheywillhavedifficultproblemsthenextday,theymayspendmoretimeonREMsleepthenightbefore.Intheirdreams,theymayfindananswertotheirproblems.Questions29to31arebasedonthepassageyouhavejustheard.29.Howoftendoesapersondreameachnight?【解析】[B]文章一开始即交待了一个人一晚上要做梦四到六次。从第一句就可看出Peopledreamsfourtosixtimesanight.因此,答案为[B]。30.Whatistrueaccordingtothispassage?【解析】[D]安眠药会阻止人们进入REM睡眠状态。Thesesleepingpillsdidn’tletthemgoingtoREMsleep.可看出[D]项正确。31.Whydopeopledream?【解析】[D]文中明确给出了答案Dreamsgivethemtimetofindtheanswerstosomeoftheirproblems.因为在梦中人可以找到自己的问题的答案。PassageThreeO.K.,everybody.Canwestartthemeetingnow?I’mJeffMilton,thechairpersonoftheGraduationCommitteeforthisyear.You’veallbeenselectedasrepresentativestoplanthegraduationceremonies.I’msendingaroundthesheetofpaperforyoutofillinyournameandtelephonenumber.Also,pleasewritedownwhatpartoftheceremoniesyouwouldliketoworkon.Remember,asarepresentative,youwillhavealotofresponsibilities.Soonlysignupifyoufeelyouhavethetimetoparticipate.Wheneveryonehasfinishedwritingdowntheinformation,pleasereturnthepapertome.Atournextmeetingoneweekfromtoday,we’llstarttodiscussthedetailsoftheceremonies.Questions32to35arebasedonthepassageyouhavejustheard.32.Whoisthespeaker?【解析】[C]从文章开头说话者的自我介绍就可知道他是这个委员会的主席。

15可用到的、可利用的”,这里指没有可用的地方给顾客停车。52.【解析】[L]Shoppingcenters,orrathermalls,startedasacollectionofsmallnewstoresawayfromcrowdedcitycenters.购物中心或者购物商场开始在拥挤的城市中心之外建小型的新商场。开始即用start。53.【解析】[D]顾客们被许多免费的停车场所吸引,attracted是被吸引之意。54.【解析】[M]customersweredrawnawayfromdowntownareastooutlyingmalls.顾客们被从市区吸引到郊区的购物商场。市区即用downtown一词。55.【解析】[J]购物中心越来越流行,popularity即普及、流行之意。56.【解析】[F]购物中心除了提供停车的便利之外,还提供其他服务。提供便利即用provideconvenience。SectionBPassageOne【短文大意】本文主要讲述文化背景对商业运作的影响,文中列举了商界中存在的对于文化多样性的两种观点。57.【解析】[C]推断题。意为“对在商业中怎样对待文化有着不同意见”。文化在商业中是一个很具挑战性的因素。不同的国家与地区可能会有不同的文化体系。在商业中,应该怎样对待不同的文化,商业界存在着不同的看法。58.【解析】[A]细节题。意为“……与同意世界商业一体化的派别的主张是一致的”。Pepsi采纳的是国际化的商业风格,这与那些主张国际化的派别的意见是相一致的。59.【解析】[C]推断题。意为“承认商业世界中文化的多元性”。两个派别都承认商业世界中文化的多元性。他们的不同在于,应该对待不同的文化,应该搞国际化还是对不同的文化采取不同的策略。60.【解析】[D]主旨题。由文中的例子可以知道,作者主要关心的并不是研究多种文化形态,而是文化背景对商业运作的影响。所以D是正确答案。61.【解析】[B]细节题。意为“都具有耐心这一素质”。并非所有成功的国际公司的海外收入都占总收入的20%或以上。它们也不一定全都接纳海外的当地文化,或是采纳国际化策略。PassageTwo【短文大意】本文主要讲述垒球的特征及欣赏。62.【解析】[D]主旨题。文章第一段简述了人们对垒球所持的偏见——认为它毫无活力、从容和缓,不像橄榄球那样高潮迭起、令人激动。文章的第二、三、四、五段探讨了垒球的根本特征及欣赏角度,文章的最后一句话用一个比喻概括了垒球的魅力:“如果橄榄球是一曲交响乐的话,那么,垒球中所表现出来的运动恰似一曲优美的室内乐。”可见,本文主要探讨的是垒球的特点及其欣赏。A不对,第一段也确实提到了不同观众对不同运动形式的偏好,但这只是用以引出对垒球的特征及欣赏的讨论。63.【解析】[C]细节题。文章第一段指出:许多人不喜欢垒球,一提起垒球这些人就打哈欠甚至皱眉头。对他们来说,看垒球意味着眼巴巴地观望着身着运动装(outfit)的人呆立在球场上,东瞧瞧西望望,很少有什么(激动人心的)事发生——没意思透了。他们认为这样的运动更适合上个世纪的人的口味,不像橄榄球那样充满活力。A意为:“它只适合老年人的口味。”注意:原文说的是适合上个世纪的人的口味,二者意味不一样。D意为:“它矫揉造作、滑稽可笑。”这与说它gentlemanly(具有绅士风度,矜持,即:没有冲撞或拼抢)不一样。

1664.【解析】[B]推断题。第三段指出,在电视上,垒球运动被切换成不同角度的画面,而且不断地使用重放、特写等电视制作技术,这破坏了该运动的整体运动感,使观众无法将自己投入(project)到运动中去,以体会到这种寓动于静的运动之美。电视做不到这一点(TheTVwon’tdoitforyou),因此,电视上的垒球比赛看上去(seems)孤孤单单、冷冷清清、沉沉静静、慢慢腾腾。C、D不对,作者仅指出了不同运动有不同运动的特征,并未说哪种运动优于哪种。参阅文章最后一句。65.【解析】[B]推断题。第四段整个都在描述垒球场上的一个场景:拿三垒的运动员假设对方全投出好球,做好了一切准备,但是对方投出的并不是好球。所以在那时候他的准备做不做都不会影响比赛结果。他说本来可以闭上眼睛,意思就是B项所写的。A、C、D都不符合作者的意图。这道题需要完整地了解第四段内容才能作好选择。66.【解析】[D]推断题。在本文中,作者主要探讨了垒球的特征及欣赏,作者着重指出的是:只有根据垒球的特征来欣赏它,才能体会到它的魅力。在他看来,观察到垒球比赛中运动员的各种动作、垒球位之间的关系等是欣赏它的关键(第三段第二句)。只有从整体来把握它,才能看到每一个小的动作、每一个眼神乃至于“静止”的意义,也只有这样,才能全身心地投入比赛中,欣赏到它的魅力。可见,作者对垒球有很深的理解而且非常喜爱垒球。主要参考第三、四、五段。PartⅤCloze67.【解析】[A]just在此为副词,意为“刚刚”,做状语。此句意为“一个事件刚刚发生,街上就有报纸报道详情了。说明报纸对新闻的反应之快。”68.【解析】[A]togive和giving都合乎语法,但giving强调的是正在发生的动作,而此处重点表达的是“反应快”,不是正在做什么。69.【解析】[A]消息,信息要靠收集。70.【解析】[D]后面的不定式短语表示目的71.【解析】[C]提供信息的目的是为了让他人知道,所以选C。72.【解析】[B]other意为“其他的”。此句意为:无线电,电报,电视,及其他发明,成为报纸的竞争对手。73.【解析】[A]根据句中的merely及其后所述内容,应选however,表转折。74.【解析】[D]使用更新,更快的通信工具,目的是提高速度。75.【解析】[C]报纸是印出来的,先印后看(读)。76.【解析】[D]keepsb.过去分词是一种复合结构,sb.与过去分词为被动关系,意为保持这种关系的继续。此句的意思是:报纸不断地为读者提供新闻信息。77.【解析】[C]关于politics之类的严肃话题,只能选educate。78.【解析】[B]此句意为:报纸通过广告影响读者在经济生活中的选择。79.【解析】[B]大多数报纸依靠广告收入来维持生存,此现象人人皆知。80.【解析】[C]报纸的售价之低,不足以抵付成本的一小部分。符合上下文关于广告收入的说法。81.【解析】[A]收入来源应该用source。因为source指河流,泉水的发源地;常指抽象事物的根源或来源以及资料,信息的出处或来源。origin起源,起因。指事物后来发生,发展变化的最初起点,或指人的出身和血统。82.【解析】[D]succeedin为固定短语。此句意为:广告业务的成功,取决于报纸在客户(要打广告的人)心中的价值。83.【解析】[C]根据上下文,此处应该用一般现在时的被动语态,此句意为:报纸在客户心中的价值,是靠发行量衡量的。

1784.【解析】[C]该句意为:发行量的大小,很大程度上取决于发行部门的工作及报纸所提供的服务功能和娱乐功能。85.【解析】[B]offered作services和entertainment的定语。86.【解析】[D]information后面接介词about,表示“关于”。PartⅥTranslation87.【解析】tomaketrouble【答案解析】找麻烦用固定词组maketrouble即可,maketrouble即制造麻烦,捣乱之意。88.【解析】needn’thaveborroweditfromthebank.【答案解析】本题考查虚拟语气的用法,needn’thavedone的结构是本不必这样做而做了的意思。89.【解析】Itisbecausesheistooinexperienced【答案解析】没有经验可以用一个形容词来翻译,即inexperienced。90.【解析】willbedoing/conductingtheexperiment【答案解析】本题考查将来时态的用法,做实验即可用doexperiment也可用conductexperiment。91.【解析】resorttoforce【答案解析】本题亦考查固定词组用法,诉诸武力有固定词组resorttoforce。
