A:acquire
B:arrange
C:support
D:change答案：D解析：固定搭配the risk of，表示“……的风险”，所以of为正确答案。其他三项均不合适，故选A。
根据句意和动词后的介词to，排除选项A和C，而arrange表示“安排，整理”，意思与作者要表达的“说服人们改变他们的生活习惯”不符，所以D项persuade为正确答案。
联系上下文，可知这里提出的是一个解决问题的方法，approach表示“方法，途径”，指从事某事的特别方法、途径，符合句意，为正确答案。A项manner表示“方式”时，多指行动的特殊方式或独特的方法；B项custom表示“风俗，习惯”；C项style表示“风格，样式”；均不符合句意，故选B。
根据句意，这里是说要“增加停车收费”,increase表示“增加”，符合句意，为正确答案。A项enlarge表示“扩大，增大”;C项grow做及物动词时表示“使生长，种植，扩展”;D项develop表示“发展，开发，生长”；均不符合句意，故选B。
根据句意，这里是说要对那些违章的人加强罚款，bring in表示“引进，增加”，为正确答案。A项carry down表示“搬下，结账，把……传下来”,B项put off表示“推迟，脱掉”,D项take away表示“带走，取走”，均不符合句意，故选C。
根据句意，将对违规的人加大惩罚力度，break the law表示“违法”，符合句意。A项cross表示“交叉；横过”;B项refuse表示“拒绝”;D项crack表示“破裂”；均不符合题意，故选C。
固定搭配be known as...，表示“以……为（人们）所熟知”。故选B。
根据句意，“道路收费”系统已经被引入一些城市来使用，a number of表示 “一些”，符合句意，为正确答案。A项a quantity of表示“大量”，可修饰可数和不可数名词，但侧重大批量计算，含精确测量的意味；B项a total of表示“总计”，C项a sum of表示“合计，总数”，均不符合句意，故选D。
be fixed to…表示“被固定在……上”，文中是说“固定在汽车的档风玻璃上”，所以选A，而其他三项都不符合句意。
根据句意，要求表达另一种处理这个问题的方法，deal with problem表示 “处理问题”，为正确答案，A项do with表示“处理，时待”时，多用于具体的事物，且一般与 what连用，如：What should I do with this old computer?（这台旧电脑我怎么处理呢？);B项 handle和C项solve都为及物动词，表示处理解决问题时，直接加宾语problem，故选D。
联系上下文，本句后半段提到“市中心”，再根据句意，可得出前面是说“郊区”，只有outskirts是正确答案，故选D。
根据上下文，只有service符合。利用特殊的公交服务，而不是公交站台(B 项）、公交路线（C项）和公交票价（D项）。所以选A。
the most important thing为惯用语，表示“最重要的事是……”，根据句意，作者要表达的是“最重要的事情还是提供良好的公共交通”，因此thing为正确答案，其他三项 均不合适，故选D。
A项pass on表示“传递，继续”;B项throw away表示“扔掉，丢弃”;C项 give up表示“放弃”;D项leave out表示“遗漏，省去”。根据句意，舍弃汽车的舒适，give up最为恰当，所以选C。
固定搭配keep at an acceptable level表示“保持在一个可接受的水平”。其他三项均不正确，故选C。 -

Successful Language Learners
1. Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages.They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules or grammar,and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others.They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others,so what makes language learning so much eas- ier for them?Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners,we may dis- cover a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them.
2. First of all,successful language learners are independent learners.They do not depend on the book or the teacher;they discover their own way to learn the language.Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain,they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves.They are good guess-ers who look for clues and form their own conclusions.When they guess wrong,they guess again. They try to learn from mistakes.
3. Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore,successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language;they look for such a chance.They find people who speak the lan-guage and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake.They will try anything to communicate .They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things;they are willing to make mistakes and try again .When communication is difficult,they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete.It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.
4. Finally,successful language learners are learners with a purpose.They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it.It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it.
5. What kind of language learner are you?If you are a successful language learner,you have probably been learning independently,actively,and purposefully. On the other hand,if your language learning has been less than successful,you might as well try some of the techniques outlined above.Paragraph 3______
A: Ways to Learn a Language Successfully.
B: Learning a language Purposefully.
C: Learning a Language Actively.
D: Learning a Language Independently.
E: Learning from Mistakes.
F: Learning to Think in the Target Language.答案：C解析：本段首先通过举例方式说明有些人似乎学习语言比别人更快更轻松，引出该篇文章的主题：…a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them．即成功学习语言的方法。
本段主要讲述的是第一个学习语言的方法，就是独立学习的能力，作者通过举例子的方式来说明这一方法，例如这些人不会依赖老师或者课本，而是自己去摸索总结出一定的模式，寻找线索，大胆地不断地进行猜测，从错误中学习。
本段主要讲述的另外一个语言学习的方法，就是积极主动学习的能力，这些人会寻找一切使用语言的机会，找人纠正他们的错误，敢于说一些即使有别扭的句子，愿意接受不准确或不完整的信息，对他们来说学习另一种思维方式比知道单词的意思更加重要。
本段主要讲述的另外一个语言学习的方法，就是有目的性的学习的能力，这些人往往是因为对讲这种语言的人以及语言本身感兴趣才学习的英语，这样他们可以更好地和使用这种语言的当地人交流并向他们学习。
依据是第二段第四句话：They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions.
依据是第二段第三句话：Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves.

第5题：
问答题Practice 2 Directions: Read the following text(s) and write an essay to 1) summarize the main points of the text(s), 2) make clear your own viewpoint, and 3) justify your stand. In your essay, make full use of the information provided in the text(s). If you use more than three consecutive words from the text(s), use quotation marks (“ ”). You should write 160—200 words on the ANSWER SHEET. It is all very well to blame traffic congestion, the cost of petrol and the hectic pace of modern lift, but manners on the roads are becoming deplorable. Everybody knows that nicest men become monsters behind the wheel. It is all very well again to have a tiger in the tank, but to have one in the drivers seat is completely another awkward and difficult situation. You might tolerate the odd mad hog, but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule. Perhaps the situation calls for a “Be Kind to Other Drivers” campaign; otherwise it may get completely out of hand. Road courtesy is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most levelheaded and good-tempered of drivers to resist the temptation to retaliate when subjected to uncivilized behavior. On the other hand, a little courtesy goes a long way towards relieving the tensions and frustrations of motoring. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement in response to an act of courtesy helps to create an atmosphere of goodwill and tolerance so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of courtesy are all too rare today. Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize courtesy when they see it. Lorry drivers say they have almost abandoned the practice of signaling cars to overtake when the road is clear, because many of the cars took too long to pass. Their drivers couldn't be bothered to select a lower gear. Others, after overtaking, slowed down again and hogged the road. They manufacture them by force, using their direction indicators as a threat rather than a warning. Slanting matches and even punch-ups（打架斗殴）are quite common. It can't be long before we hear of pistols and knives being used: we can then call our dual carriageways, and solve a spelling problem in the process. Driving is essentially a state of mind. However technically skilled a driver may be, he can't be all advanced motorist if he is always arrogant and aggressive.正确答案： 【范文】
The given excerpts discuss most drivers on their road are badly-behaved, which results in all kinds of traffic conflict. Therefore, the excerpts suggest drivers must possess a sense of road courtesy. Road courtesy asks for drivers not only to behave good manners, but also to have a good sense. Only in this way can friction be minimized. At last, the excerpts mention that being an advanced motorist depends on whether he has a sense of road courtesy rather than whether he is technically skilled.
As for me, I totally agree with the point of view mentioned in the excerpts. Admittedly, with the rapid development of economy and car industry, there is a constant increase in private cars and taxi. However, it also brings about some negative influences. In order to save time or for personal convenience, drivers turn a deaf ear to the road courtesy. Their illegal overtaking and inappropriate driving lead to many cases of car accidents. To solve this problem, the government has issued related laws to supervise drivers. But what’s more important, it’s drivers’ good sense that matters most. On the one hand, drivers should stay calm when meeting an uncivilized driver. Don’t retaliate. On the other hand, drivers should respond to an act of courtesy, which will help create a friendly atmosphere among the traffic conditions.解析： 暂无解析 -

单选题ADesigning better cars.

CIncreasing people’s awareness of traffic problems.
DEnhancing drivers’ sense of responsibility.
正确答案： D解析：
细节题。录音最后提到“Since people assume that the accidents are bound to occur, they want to know how cars can be built better to protect the drivers”，既然事故无法避免，就从怎样制造更好的能保护司机的汽车来解决问题。故选A。
【录音原文】
As the car industry develops, traffic accidents have become as familiar as the common cold. Yet their cause and control remain a serious problem that is difficult to solve. Experts have long recognized that this discouraging problem has multiple causes. At the very least it is a problem that involves three factors: the driver, the vehicle and the roadway. If all drivers exercised good judgment at all times, there would be few accidents. But this is rather like saying that if all people were honest, there would be no crime. Improved design has helped to make highways much safer. But the title of accidents continues to rise because of human failure and an enormous increase in the number of automobiles on the road. Attention is now turning increasingly to the third factor of the accident are the car itself. Since people assume that the accidents are bound to occur, they want to know how cars can be built better to protect the drivers.
Questions 1 to 4 are based on the passage you have just heard.
1. What does the speaker think are the causes of automobile accidents?
2. What measure has been taken to reduce car accidents?
3. What remains an important factor for the rising number of road accidents?
4. What’s the focus of people’s attention today according to the passage?
