  • 第1题：

    C

    Honesty comes in many forms. First there’s self-honesty. Is what people see the real article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that if I try to be something I’m not , I feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my PBA(personal bank account ).I love how singer Judy Garland put it, “Always be a first-class version(版本) of yourself , instead of a second-class version of somebody else .”

    Then there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents , and with your boss ? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t do wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that:

    In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well. I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off.

    At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping them. They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.

    It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But , remember , every act of honesty is a deposit（储蓄）into your PBA and will build strength .

    49. The underlined part “appear through smoke and mirrors” in the first paragraph means “ ” .

    A. to be honest

    B. to be unreal

    C. to become clear

    D. to come from an imagined world

    Who Came First, the Chicken or the Egg?

    I just mailed the chicken and the egg,each in its own separate packaging,and kept
    careful track of when each shipment was sent from a post office in Cambridge,
    Massachusetts,and when it later arrived at its intended destination in New York City.
    In mailing the chicken,I was careful to adhere to the restrictions described in the
    American Postal Service's Domestic Mail Manual 57,as updated on April 3,2003.This,
    the most recent,version of the Manual states that:"Adult chickens must be sent by
    Express Mail.The containers used must pass the standards in International Safe Transit
    Association Test Procedure IA;be strong enough to endure normal handling;and ensure
    enough air for the chickens in transit...The number of birds must not be more than the
    container's limit."
    I mailed the chicken in a wooden box got from a colleague who does research with
    birds.
    Then,I mailed the egg in standard packaging obtained through an industrial supplier.
    It's quite simple.
    I posted both the chicken and the egg at 9:40 am,on a Monday morning,from the
    Harvard Square post office,in Cambridge,Massachusetts.The staff there told me that
    this was the first chicken anyone had mailed from there in recent memory,and perhaps
    ever.They handled both the chicken and the egg skillfully and politely.
    The intended destination for both packages was the James A.Farley General Post
    Office,which is located in Manhattan right next to the Penn Station train terminal.
    I took the subway from the Harvard Square to the Boston train station,and from there
    boarded a train to New York City,a distance of about 320 kilometers,arriving that
    afternoon at Penn Station.I immediately went to the post office,to await the arrivals of the
    chicken and the egg.
    The James A.Farley General Post Office is open 24 hours a day,so I was able to
    wait there until both items arrived.I inquired once per hour for both the chicken and the
    egg.
    That day,Monday,neither the chicken nor the egg arrived.The next day,Tuesday,
    neither the chicken nor the egg arrived.
    The chicken arrived at 10:31 am,Wednesday.The staff at the post office told
    me that this was the first chicken anyone had mailed to the post office in recent memory,
    and perhaps ever.The egg arrived that same day,at 9:37pm,11 hours after the
    chicken.
    Based on experiment data,it's now quite clear that the chicken came first,the egg
    second.

    Why did the author go to New York City?
    A:Because he had never been there before.
    B:Because he wanted to show that he could arrive before both the chicken and the egg.
    C:Because he wanted to check which of the two items would arrive first.
    D:Because he had sent the chicken and the egg to himself.

    答案：C
    解析：

  • 第9题：

    ______ before we depart the day aftertomorrow, we should have a wonderful dinner party.

    A.Had they arrived
    B.Were they arriving
    C.Would they arrive
    D.Were they to arrive

    答案：D
    解析：
    考查虚拟语气。句意为“如果后天他们在我们离开前到了的话，我们就举行一个盛大的派对”。根据时间状语the day after tomorrow可知这是与将来事实相反的虚拟语气．并且省略了if。主句谓语用would／should／could／might十动词原形．从句谓语用动词过去式或should+动词原形或were+动词不定式。若省略if，则要将从句谓语中的were或should移至主语之前，构成省略倒装。此处从句完整形式为“if they were to arrive before we depart the day after tomorrow”。故选D。

    A

    B

    to

    C

    with

    D

    at


    正确答案： B
    解析：

    In the first paragraph of Excerpt 4, the pronoun “they” in “when they arrive” refers to _____.
    A

    restrictions

    B

    shoppers

    C

    complaints

    D

    people


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    由Excerpt 4中第一段的第二句“Many complained about the restrictions ... through the tomatoes and lettuce in the vegetable section of the store.”可知，即以前没有法律禁止在公共场所吸烟，当各种限制出现后，有些人对此颇有微词，因此此处they所指为restrictions。故A项为正确答案。

    正确答案：D
    本题考查时态及分词用法。关于时态，主从句时态保持一致，应该用一般过去时；关于分词动词rise，应该用现在分词的一般式(rising)表示正在进行的动作，因此正确答案为D。题干意思：当他们靠近时，发现滚滚白烟已经越过山头25～30米高了。
