第3题：
资料：Being financially secure in retirement just doesn't happen magically. It takes lots of planning, time and savings.
Some scary facts about retirement:
More than 50% of persons do not have enough finances for retirement.
25% do not participate in their company's retirement plan.
The average person spends 20 years in retirement.
Here are some tips to help you plan correctly:
1. Talk to a financial professional. Every few years, it's a good idea to schedule a meeting with a financial planner to get a “check-up”. It's just like a doctor's visit, and you should really talk about your present situation and future goals.
2. Save, save, and keep on saving. Make it a habit to save as much as you can.
3. Learn your retirement needs. Retirement can be expensive. Learn from today how much you need to save for your retirement. Talk to a financial planner, or find an online retirement calculator.
4. Take part in your employer's retirement plans. If your company offers one, it is usually the best tool you can use. Talk to a financial professional for all your options.
5. Learn about pension plans. If you have an employer or government pension plan, learn all the details.
6. Keep your retirement savings off-limits. Don't make a withdrawal until you retire. You might incur penalties and it will be a setback for realizing your goals.
7. Get your employer to start one, and it can help you tremendously.
8. Learn about your government's retirement plans. Every country has different plans, some with special tax incentives, so learn what your country offers and plan accordingly.
9. Do your own research. Use the Internet, read the newspapers and magazines, talk to your friends, to find out as much as you can about retirement.
Who can be a financial professional?A.The professional who will do a physical “check-up” for you.
B.The professional who will visit you like a doctor.
C.The professional who will schedule a meeting with you.
D.The professional who will help you make your financial plans.答案：D解析：本题考查的是细节理解。

Verity Allen's New Show on Colors
1 Different colors can affect us in many different ways;that's according to Verity Allen.In her new se-
ries'Color me Healthy',Verity looks at the ways that colors can influence how hard we work and the
choices we make.They can even change our emotions and even influence how healthy we arc.
2 "Have you ever noticed how people always use the same colors for the same things?" says Verity."Our
toothpaste is always white or blue or maybe red.It'g never green.Why not?For some reason we think that
blue and white is clean,while we think of green products as being a bit disgusting. It's the same for businesses.
We respect a company which writes its name in blue or black,but we don't respect one that uses pink or orange.
People who design new products can use these ideas to influence what we buy."
3 During this four-pait series,Verity studies eight different colors,two colors in each program.She
meets people who work in all teipects of the color industry,from people who design food packets to people
who name the colors of lipsticks.
4 Some of the people she meets clearly have very little scientific knowledge to support their ideas,such
as the American"Color Doctor"who believes that serious diseases can be cured by,he use of colored lights.
However,she also interviews real scientists who are studying the effects of green and red lights on mice,with
some surprising results.
5 Overall,it's an interesting show,and anyone who watches it will probably find out something new.
But because Verity goes out of her way to be polite to everyone she meets on the series,it's up to the viewers
to make their own decisions about how much they should believe.During her four一part series,Verity meets people who work in_____________.
A:little scientific knowledge
B:make their own decisions
C:design new products
D:change our emotions
E:name the coioro of lipotick5
F:all aspects of the color industry答案：F解析：从第2段Verity开始的提问即可看出，接下来将阐述人们使用颜色的习惯和方式。故 答案为A。
第3段第1句交代了Verity在其四期节日中所做的一系列研究，共考察了八种颜色。 故答案为E。
第4段举出节目中的两个例子，来说明不同的被采访者对颜色的了解不同，有些人并没有什么科学的颜色观念，而有些人则是这方面的专家。故答案为D。
最后一段作者指出这个节目是很有趣的，但同时也提到相不相信节目所宣传的结论，那 还得看观众白己了。故答案为F。
根据文中第1段最后一句可知，颜色可以影响我们的情感和健康。故可以推断出答案为D。
第2段介绍了人们使用颜色的习惯，最后一句提到设计新产品的人可以利用这种习惯 来引导人们购买商品。由此可以推断出答案为C。
根据第3段第2句话可知，Verity在节目调查中采访了从事与颜色相关的各种工作的 人：由此可以推断出答案为F。
第4段第1句话中举的例子，说明美国的颜色医生并不真正具有关于颜色的科学知识。 由此可以推断出答案为A。第4部分：阅读理解第一篇 本文主要讲了素食主义与智商之间的关系，并列举了不同学者对这二者关系的态度。 -
第5题：
问答题Read the passage carefully and answer Questions 1 to 5. Answer each question in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. In the United States today, many people want a college education. However, almost half of the people who go to college now do not attend a four-year college. Instead, they go to a community college. The community college offers a two-year course of study in a wide range of subjects. It prepares some young people to go on to a four-year college. It trains others for jobs in business, government, or industry. Some people choose a community college because of cost. The tuition for a semester at a community college can be less than half the cost of a semester at a four-year college. Also, since these colleges are located in large communities, their students can save money by living at home. Community colleges are also useful for people who have jobs and who do not have time for a traditional four-year college. Some of these people take night courses at community colleges. Others complete long-distance courses, in which they stay at home and use video-tapes, audiotapes, and the Internet. Community colleges also serve high school graduates who only achieved low grades. Many of these students would not be admitted to a four-year college. If they do well, they may go on to a four-year college. Today, the country’s 1,500 community colleges have more than 10 million students. These colleges are making it possible for more and more people to continue their education. Questions: 1．What is the passage mainly about? 2．What does theyin paragraph 1 refer to? 3．In which fields does a community college provide job training? 4．Why do people often prefer to go to a community college? 5．What does the word tuitionin paragraph 3 mean?正确答案：
1.(the advantages of)community college 本文主要介绍了与普通高校相比,社区学院的各项优点,如:开设课程广泛、学费低以及适合各类学生进修等。
2.half of the people who go to college now ”instead”表意思转折,前后共享一个主语。
3.business, government, or industry 第二段最后一句提到社区学院在商务,政府和工业领域为学生提供职能培训。
4.low cost 第三段提到许多人出于费用考虑选择社区学院,因为它的学费低于四年制高校的一半,并且因为离家近很多学生可以直接住在家里从而节省住宿费。这是community college区别于其他院校最大的地方。
5.cost 本段提到许多人出于cost考虑选择社区学院,并且由第二句话可推断tuition与cost是近义词。tuition学费。解析： 暂无解析 -

正确答案： D解析：

第8题：
单选题Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?AThe worst of layoff is the society’s work-ethic morality.
BUnemployment brings great mental hurt to people.
CThose who lost their jobs become easily depressed.
DThose who lost jobs would value any job they can get.
正确答案： A解析：
文章第二段的第一句话指出，最糟糕的不是社会的工作道德观，而是你自己的道德观，所以A“失业最糟糕的是社会的工作道德观”是不符文意的。B“失业给人们带来巨大的伤害”，C“失业的人很容易情绪低落”，和D“失业的人会珍视他们将得到的任何工作”都是文章所要表达的。 -
第9题：

正确答案： D解析：
排除性题目。从选项逻辑可发现A与D意思完全相反，因此必有一个是错的。根据 第二段professionals…account for only a small percentage of the total losses due to shop- lifting, 可知A是错误的。 -
第10题：

Bhigh school graduates do not fit the pattern of college education
Ctoe many students have to earn their own living

第11题：

Who can be a financial professional?A. The professional who will do physical “check-up” for you
B. The professional who will visit you like a doctor
C. The professional who will schedule a meeting with you
D. The professional who will help you make your financial plans答案：D解析：细节题。我们可以将关键词进行定位，定位到标号为1的段落，所谓的金融专家，主要就是像是一个医生，主要对你目前的经济状况和未来的计划进行指导。因此D项符合文段。A项侧重身体健康检查，排除。B项指的就像医生定期来访，排除。C项指的是定期举行会议，这个是形式，但不是最终对金融专家的解释，排除。因此答案选D。 -

Retirement Brings Most a Big Health Boost
The self-reported health of the newly retired improves so much that most feel eight years younger,a new
European study suggests.
This happy news was true of almost everyone except a small minority一only 2 percent一who had experi-
enced"ideal"conditions in their working life,anyway.
"The results really say three things:that work puts an extra burden on the health of older workers,that
the effects of this extra burden are largely relieved by retirement and,finally,that both the extra burden and
the relief are larger when working conditions are poor,"said Hugo Westerlund,lead author of a study pub-
lished online Nov. 9 in The Lancet（柳叶刀）." This indicates that there is need to provide opportunities for
older workers to decrease the demands in their work out of concern for their health and well-being."
But of course,added Westerlund,who is head of epidemiology at the Stress Research Institute at
Stockholm University in Sweden,"not all older workers suffer from poor perceived health.Many are indeed
remarkably healthy and fit for work.But sooner or later,everyone has to slow down because of old age catch-
ing up."
Last week,the same group of researchers reported that workers slept better after retirement than before.
"Sleep improves at retirement,which suggests that sleeping could be a mediator between work and perception
of poor health,"Westerlund said.
This study looked at what the same 15,000 French workers,and most of them had to say about their own
health up to seven years pre-retirement and up to seven years post-retirement.
As participants got closer to retirement age,their perception of their own health declined,but went up
again during the first year of retirement.
Those who reported being in poorer health declined from 19.2 percent in the year prior to retirement to
14.3 percent by the end of the first year after retiring. According to the researchers,that means post-retire-
ment levels of poor health fell to levels last seen eight years previously.
The changes were seen in both men and women,across different occupations,and lasted through the first
seven years of not punching the clock.
Workers who felt worse before retirement and had lower working conditions reported greater improve-
ments as soon as they retired,the team found.Older workers usually get on very well with younger workers.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：C解析：从第一段“The self-reported health of the newly retired improves so much that most feel eight years younger…”可知，调查显示大部分刚退休的人健康状况都有所好转，他们声称自己 年轻了8岁。因此该句正确。
从第三段“… that work puts an extra burden on the health of older workers…”可知，工作给 年龄大的人带来额外负担，并且对他们的健康有很大影响，因此不能像要求年轻人一样要求他 们。故该句不正确。
该句文中未提及。通读本文发现，作者未提到老年工作者和年轻工作者相处的话题。
该句文中未提及。文中并未提到欧洲人是否比其他地方的人老得快。
根据第六段“… most of them had to say about their own health…”可知，该研究针对的是 退休前和退休后的老年人对自己的健康状况的自述，因此该句正确。
从第六段可知，该调查是对法国老人健康的调查，因此该句不正确。
该句文中未提及。文章中未提到这项研究的发现是否适用于全世界。 -

fit the pattern意为“符合这个模式”，结合上下文可知人们心目中高等教育的模式指的是“college will help them earn more money，become ‘better’ people，and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.”，所以那些“不符合这个模式的人”没有很高的收入、没有更有教养或更有责任感，是那些接受了高等教育却没有任何进步的人，故C项正确。 -
第20题：
问答题We have to ask ourselves: who really give the most value to society? Many college graduates could not find suitable jobs when they finish their higher education. What are the job problems for college graduates? Write a composition to state your view on this issue.正确答案：
WHY IS IT SO DIFFIUCLT TO FIND A JOB? Every year thousands of graduates flood the job market, expecting better jobs in their majors, only to be frustrated and disappointed. Why do college students find it increasingly difficult to get a rewarding job?
One reason perhaps is that many colleges and universities fail to gear their curricular to the development of industries. Degree courses offered in these colleges and universities are so outdated, irrelevant and impractical that the employers as well as the students themselves find it hard to translate their book knowledge into real job skills. No one wants to know about their mind-broadening and horizon-widening qualities, and few are willing to spend time and budget on training raw recruits.
Secondly, there is an oversupply of graduates in certain specialties, and this oversupply is increasing. Already there is an overabundance of lawyers, executive secretaries, sales engineers and other specialists due to the ambitious investment and booming industries brought on by the economic reforms in recent years. Yet colleges continue every year to turn out the graduates of these specialties to compete for jobs that aren't there. The result is that many of them cannot enter the professions for which they are trained and have to take other jobs which do not require a college degree.
Thirdly, there is a problem with the attitude of college graduates toward employment. Many of them put earnings above anything else. So they miss many opportunities. Is they have a realistic expectation of how much they should earn in the beginning of their career, it won't be difficult for them to get a job. Besides, they are also very particular about the place. Many college graduates are reluctant to seek a job in the less developed provinces, say, in the mid-western areas, where there are immense opportunities for success and career development. Instead, they all food to the big cities in the eastern coastal area, such as Shanghai, Guangzhou and Beijing. As a result, the competition in these cities becomes more fierce.
The problems that college graduates encounter in job hunting deserve more attention from the colleges and the government. The colleges should get their students out of the ivory tower and gear their courses to the needs of industry and business. The government should provide college graduates with more vocational opportunities to develop new skills, and at the same time raise the wages in the intellectual field so as to retain those willingly devoted to academic studies and scientific research.解析：
题目要求讨论大学生就业过程中的问题。作者选择从为什么大学生就业难入手，在第二、三、四段分别给出了理由，即学校的课程设置与社会需求脱节、对工作的期望值太高以及部分专业供给过剩。最后一段总结全文，并提出了解决意见。 -
第21题：
单选题According to the passage, which of the following did NOT happen in the room where the college entrance exam was going on?AThe teachers in the exam hall tried to stop the police from entering into the room.
BSome examinees sent answers with mobile phones to people outside the room to make profits.
CThe mobile phones were confiscated by the police.
DSome examinees forwarded answers to people who have paid a lot of money.
正确答案： A解析：
语义的理解和判断。该段录音与一次考试作弊案相关，开头便指出警察试图进入学生参加大学入学考试的大厅，但是“They were blocked by teachers but later confiscated mobile phones…”，由此可知，虽然教师们不让警察进入考试大厅，但后来警察们还是没收了被用于考试作弊的手机，因此选项A、C均与录音原文相符。接着录音中指出考场里最聪明的学生将答案做出后，发给younger students outside the hall（考场外年纪小一点的学生）手中，然后这些学生再将答案转发给已付过钱的人，由此可见，B项内容也与录音原文相符。但D项所描述的（一些考生将答案转发给已付过钱的人）与录音中提到的“发给考场外年纪小一点的学生”不符。
【录音原文】
Acting on a tip off—the police tried to raid a hall where students were taking the college entrance exam last month. They were blocked by teachers but later confiscated mobile phones that had been smuggled into the room—and uncovered what they said was an elaborate cheating system. The brightest students known as “players” finished their multiple choice papers quickly then sent off the answers by text message to younger students outside the hall. They forwarded the information to others who paid up to 1, 000 dollars to take part. -
第22题：
单选题According to the passage the problems of college education partly arise from the fact that______.Asociety cannot provide enough jobs for properly trained college graduates
Bhigh school graduates do not fit the pattern of college education
Ctoe many students have to earn their own living
Dcollege administrators encourage students to drop out
正确答案： B解析：
大学教育出现种种问题的原因：一是年轻人自己的原因(他们被宠坏了、期望值太高)（见第三段），二是社会原因，即末句“... disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer absorb an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds”，故选项A正确。 -

【录音原文】
In the U.S.A, 30% of the adult population has the weight problem. To many people, the cause is obvious—they eat too much. But scientific evidence doesn’t support this idea. Going back to the America of 1910, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days, people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn’t watch television.
Several modern studies have shown that fatter people don’t eat more than thinner people. In fact, some investigations report that fat people eat less than thinner people. Recently, a study of a research group found the following interesting fact: thinner people are more active than fatter people; therefore, those who exercise regularly can eat more and still lose a large amount of body fat.
