第1题：
Having acknowledged receipt of the interview letter，you must prepare for the interview. Firms usually take a good deal of trouble over interviews，and there may be three or more people present，which can be a little frightening. Very often the personnel officer will begin by some words of welcome and an invitation to you to tell them a little about yourself. This is really inviting you to repeat the information you have already supplied on the application form，and which they have already read，but it does have some point. It will put you at your ease，because at least you know all about your own level of achievement and can speak about it confidently. It helps them assess your ability to communicate and your serf-esteem. Some people have too high an opinion of themselves，some take an unduly pessimistic view of their achievements，while others have a nicely balanced assessment of their own abilities.

在你表明收到面试函以后，就要为面试做准备了。一般说来，公司在面试上不怕麻烦，往往有两三个人员在场，这可能会有点让人害怕。多数情况下，管人事的会以欢迎一类的话作为开场白，然后就请你谈一些自己的情况。这实际上是让你把申请表里已经提供的，而且他们已经看过的情况再陈述一遍。但它却有一定的用处。它会使你放松，因为至少你对自己的水平很熟悉，可以很自信地侃侃而谈。他们也可以此来评定你的交流能力和是否自负。因为有些人对自己评价过高，有些人却无端自卑，有的人则能对自己的能力有一个中肯的判断。 -

Energy Cycle
Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful?This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation.He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you are"hot".That's true.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at this peak.For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar words as:"Get up, John!You'll be late for work again!"The possible explanation to the trouble is he is at his tempera-ture-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help,Dr. Kleitman believes.Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway.Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to.If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start,which saves your energy.Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours.If your energy peak is in the evening,you might like to get up late.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：虽然文章第一段提到早上起不来床会被称为懒，但是本文强调的是Kleitman博士所提出的新观点，就是这可能是由于每个人不同的能量周期决定的。因此不是所有早上起不来的人都是懒，所以这句话是错误的。
根据文章第二段和第三段我们知道能量峰值在晚上的人早上精神会不好，能量峰值在早上的人则相反，因此本句是正确的。
文章第二段最后一句讲到如果夫妻双方都能意识到能量周期的不同，那么“much family quarrelling ends”，即少了许多争吵，也就是说很多争吵是因为没有意识到能量周期的问题，因此本句表述是错误的。
第二段三句讲“The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at this peak"，即精力最充沛的时候体温最高，但这并不意味着精力和体温是一码事，例如人生病的时候会发烧但精神会很差。本句的表述是错误的。
文章第二段告诉我们“No one has discovered why this is so”，即没人知道为什么每个人的能量周期不同，因此我们也不知道是不是有遗传因素，所以选择选项C。
第三段第一句告诉我们虽然可以让自己的生活适应能量周期，但是“you can't change your energy cycle"，因此本句表述是错误的，应当选择选项B。
文章第三段最后两句建议早上处于低潮的人们要比平时起得早，这样才能工作得更好。因此本句的陈述是正确的。 -

Energy Cycle
Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful?This might be called laziness,but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're“hot”.That's true .The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak .For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening.No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar monologues as:“Get up,John!You'll be late for work again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit to it better. Habit can help,Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but you must stay up late anyway .Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy .Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble of searching for clean clothes by laying them out the night before .Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?
A: Unawareness of energy cycles.
B:Familiar monologues.
C: A change in a family member's energy cycle.
D: Attempts to work more efficiently during the cycle of other family members.答案：A解析：根据第一段可以看出，早晨起不来与个人每天的能量周期有关。根据文章第二段中约翰自言自语以及紧接着的解释“Get up , John ! You'll be late for work again ! ” The explanation… temperature-and-energy peak in the evening．可推断出答案。
答案的线索在第二段最后一句话“Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.”也就是说，如果丈夫和妻子能明白不同的能量周期是怎么回事，家里每个人有什么样的能量周期，很多家庭争吵就不会发生。所以正确答案是A。
“如果一个人想在早上能量低潮时更有效地工作，那么他该怎么办？”根据这两句话“If your energy is low in the morning but you have…but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.”可以断定正确答案应该是C。
“建议你早上起床时打个呵欠，伸伸懒腰，因为它们会＿______”首先应理解文章最后一段的第一句话“get off to a slow start which saves your energy”，还要理解该句后面的三句话，它们是保存能量的具体方法。“Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch”当然是为了保存能量。所以正确答案是A。
选项B说Dr. Kleitman解释了为什么人们在一天里的不同时刻会有不同的能量高峰。而文章第二段指出没有人发现为什么会有不同的能量周期“For some people the peak comes during morning…No one has discovered why this is so.”两者不符，所以正确答案是B。 -

正确答案： C解析：
推理判断题。第四段提到可以多咨询几个建筑师，但没有涉及咨询其他建筑师会让你已经选中的建筑师感到生气，因此A不正确；倒数第二段提到如果你的家比你周围豪华许多，在卖房子的时候会吃亏，但不涉及处不好邻里关系，因此B不正确；第五段中“Homeowners often make the mistake of…you own the property for a significant time after the renovations are completed.”意思是“房主很少能在卖房时收回装修的成本，除非是在房子装修之后很长时间才出售”，选项D与之相悖。根据第二段“是重新装修来满足你的风格，还是卖掉这套房子另置一套，这是经常出现在脑海中的问题”可知，正确答案为C。 -
第10题：
问答题In some countries young people are encouraged to work or travel for a year between finishing high school and starting university studies. Read the article carefully and write your response in about 300 words, m which you should: 1. summarize briefly the opinions in the article: 2. give your comment. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. A gap year is a year off that you can take between finishing high school and starting university. Otherwise known as deferring your studies, it can be a good alternative to starting university if you’re feeling exhausted or you’re just not sure what you want to do. Perhaps you want to travel, earn some money by working full-time or get some work experience in your field of interest. There’s a lot to weigh up when deciding whether to take a gap year. Some common masons to take a gap year include: Broaden your view of the world Whether you simply want to see and experience another country, or gain an appreciation and awareness of global issues, taking a defer year can be a great way to immerse yourself in another country. Gain relevant work experience and key skills Working during your defer year means you’ll gain plenty of experience, skills and knowledge, which (especially if in a relevant field) can be highly valuable when applying for jobs later on. Earn some money Following on from that, a working year off can also be a great way to earn some extra money before starting university. You might not earn enough to pay your entire university costs, but you could perhaps cover expenses such as accommodation, text books, travel or even the first semester/ term of your course fees. Develop useful contacts During your defer year, you’ll likely meet a range of different people from all walks of life. This could include people you can call on for job opportunities and references, or simply some international friends on whose sofas you can crash on if you get the chance to visit their home country later. Challenge yourself Many students take the year to tackle challenges they’ve set for themselves, step out of their comfort zone, face their fears and enjoy new experiences. You might decide to go trekking through a jungle, climb a mountain for charity, volunteer in a developing country, or go scuba diving, skiing or snowboarding. Improve and gain new life skills This can be anything from learning and becoming fluent in a foreign language, becoming an instructor in an adventure sport, boosting your IT skills or learning how to teach English as a foreign language. While there are many benefits to taking a gap year, it’s worth considering that there are also risks involved. Some of the disadvantages of a gap year you might encounter include: You’ll be a year behind everyone who graduated high school/ secondary school with you, if they didn’t take a year off themselves. It can cost a lot of money to organize and realize. You may get injured or sick during your travels—if you need prescription medication, make sure to check whether your medication is legal and available in your destination country. You might find your break too interesting/ distracting, and end up not wanting to go back into formal education. Your study skills may have diminished, making it harder for you to adjust to life in education. This can be particularly true for mathematics or physics students, or any course that involves complex theoretical processes and techniques that may not be used outside of the classroom. You may simply find that you didn’t get the experience you were hoping for.正确答案：
【参考范文】
An increasing number of students, rich or poor, would like to spend a year traveling or working in other countries before they go to universities, which stems from a variety of reasons. Some of them just hope that by experiencing different things, they can find what their ambitions truly are. After all, it is an unwise decision to pass directly from high school to university. Some want to be independent by earning extra money. As for me, no matter what you choose, you have to make sure that you are heading to your goals.
Taking a year off gives you a good chance to broaden your horizons, to visit different countries and to meet different people. Perhaps, you can get inspirations from others’ lifestyle. Part-time job can make you economically independent for a period of time, as well as giving you relevant work experience and an advantage in terms of coping with the challenges of student life.
Nevertheless, there are definitely dangers in that process you have to face. With little social experience, young students may slip into some bad habits and end up never getting your college degree. Don’t be penny wise and pound foolish. After all, academic qualifications are so important in this modern world. Secondly, you may get injured in a particular adventure activity. Besides, it takes a lot of money to take a gap year and you maybe cannot make ends meet. What’s more, you will be a year behind everyone who graduated high school/ secondary school with you, if they didn’t take a year off themselves.
In short, you should think thoroughly before making any significant decision. Stepping out comfort zone is good, but master the skills to control your life is better.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Some people think that parents should plan their children's leisure time carefully. Others believe that children should decide for themselves how to spend their free time. Which opinion do you agree? Write a composition of about 400 words to state your view.正确答案：
Childhood is a decisive period in the process of one's growth. Therefore, many people think that parents should carefully plan not only their children's school education but also their spare time. Other people, however, argue that children should have the freedom to plan their own extracurricular life. On balance, I would side with those parents who respect children's freedom and independence.
If children have the freedom to make decisions on how to spend their spare time and develop their interests, they will gradually form a sense of responsibility and become more capable in the world. Take myself as a good example. My parents are like good teachers and helpful friends in my life. As I remember, they never excessively interfered with my life and always left enough freedom to me so that I could embark upon what I liked to do in my spare time. They quite understood that my weekdays were occupied with a heavy workload, and that only in my spare time I could have a change of pace. Meanwhile, although mutual understanding and tolerance were an important part of my childhood life, in no way does it mean that they spoiled me. They were austere teachers when I made mistakes, and helpful friends when I came across difficulties. Owing to their understanding, tolerance, guidance, and above all, love, I have grown up to be a person of self-confidence, optimism, and independence, ready to meet any challenges in my life. Without the free family environment that my parents carefully designed for me, I wouldn't have lived such a happy life.
On the contrary, some parents expect too much of their children, depriving them of all their independence and freedom. These parents would rather sacrifice their children's interests and happiness for nothing but good scores, thus resulting in serious misunderstanding between parents and children. Some parents even went so far as to plan their children's schedule, filling every minute with study task. In this ease, children are deprived of happiness because they are bound hand and foot by endless homework, numerous exams and boring evening or weekend classes. Furthermore, having no freedom to plan their own life, these children are more likely to become introvert, heavily dependent on their parents when they grow up. This will definitely affect their growth. For one thing, since they have no opportunity to develop their independent thinking and explore their potential, they will find it very difficult to adjust themselves to the competitive society. For another, confining them in an ivory tower will make it hard for them to communicate with others. This will affect their career development in the future because the communication between people plays a major role in the workplace, and is one of the most important elements in achieving career success. Obviously, parents' excessive interference with children's after-school life, if carried to the extreme, can cause serious damage to both their happy childhood and their career in the future.
To sum up, I believe that parents should leave enough freedom and privacy to their children with a view to cultivating their character. As long as parents allow their children the necessary freedom accompanied by careful guidance, their children will grow up to be independent, responsible and successful.解析：

Look After Your Voice
Often speakers at a meeting experience dry mouths and ask for a glass of water.You can solve the problem by activating the saliva（唾液）in your mouth.First gently bite the edges of your tongue with your teeth.Or,press your entire tongue to the bottom of your mouth and hold it there until the saliva flow.Or you can imagine that you are slicing（切片）a big juicy lemon and sucking（吮吸）the juice.
Before you begin your talk,be kind to your voice.Avoid milk or creamy drinks which coat your throat. Keep your throat wet by drinking a little sweetened warm tea or diluted（稀释的）fruit juice. If you sense that you are losing your voice,stop talking completely.Save your voice for your speech. You may feel foolish using paper to write notes,but the best thing you can do is to rest your voice.If you need to see a doctor,perhaps you can get some advice from a professional singer.In the meantime,do not even talk in a low voice.
What about drinking alcohol to wet your throat?I advice you not to touch alcohol before speaking.The problem with alcohol is that one drink gives you a little confidence.The second drink gives you even more confidence.Finally you will feel all-powerful and you will feel you can do everything,but in fact your brain and your mouth do not work together properly.Save the alcohol until you finish speaking.
Perhaps you want to accept the advice,but you may wonder if you can ever change the habits of a lifetime. Of course you can.Goethe,who lived before indoor skating sinks or swimming pools,said,"We learn to skate in the summer and swim in the winter."Take this message to heart and give yourself time to develop your new habits.if you are willing to change,you will soon be able to say that you will never forget these techniques because they became a part of your body.The writer's advice about alcohol before you make a speech is to take one or two drinks so as to give yourself some confidence.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：B解析：第一段第一、二句表明，当演讲者口干的时候，作者的建议是刺激唾液分泌；第二段第二句表明，喉咙中要避免有牛奶或含乳饮料。因此，演讲者口干时没有被建议去喝冷牛奶，反而被告诫不要饮用牛奶或含乳饮料，可见题干表述错误。
第一段第三、四、五句表明，刺激唾液分泌的方法有三种：用牙齿轻咬舌边；把整个舌头往口中压；幻想正在吮吸柠檬汁。由此可知，第一段提到了三种在口中刺激唾液分泌的方法，可见题干表述正确。
根据第三段第四句可知，倘若你需要看医生，或许能从职业歌手那里得到一些建议。这表明，在作者看来，即便你需要得到建议，也不必去看医生，而应该向职业歌手寻求建议。而且，第三段第一句提到，如果你感到嗓子不舒服，应停止谈话，而不是去看医生。可见题干表述错误。
第四段第二句表明，作者建议演讲前不要碰酒；由第四段最后一句也可知，演讲后方能喝酒。由此可知题干表述错误，作者并不建议演讲者通过饮酒来增强信心。
第四段第五句表明，喝完酒后你会感到浑身充满力量，觉得你无所不能，可是实际上你的头脑和舌头却不能协同工作，可见题干表述正确。
第五段第三句虽然提到歌德在夏天学习滑冰而在冬天学习游泳，但通篇文章并没有提到歌德是否经常在户外滑冰和游泳。
第五段第四句表明，记住歌德的这句话，并且给你自己点时间去养成新的习惯。由此可知，作者引用歌德的话，主要是为了表明习惯是可以改变和养成的，可见题干表述正确。 -

Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit it better.

This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start,which saves your energy.Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor.

This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start,which saves your energy.Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours.if you rise earlier than usual,you will be more efficient at your low point in the morning.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：虽然文章第一段提到早上起不来床会被称为懒，但是本文强调的是Kleitman博士所提出的新观点，就是这可能是由于每个人不同的能量周期决定的。因此不是所有早上起不来的人都是懒，所以这句话是错误的。
根据文章第二段和第三段我们知道能量峰值在晚上的人早上精神会不好，能量峰值在早上的人则相反，因此本句是正确的。
文章第二段最后一句讲到如果夫妻双方都能意识到能量周期的不同，那么“much family quarrelling ends”，即少了许多争吵，也就是说很多争吵是因为没有意识到能量周期的问题，因此本句表述是错误的。
第二段三句讲“The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at this peak"，即精力最充沛的时候体温最高，但这并不意味着精力和体温是一码事，例如人生病的时候会发烧但精神会很差。本句的表述是错误的。
文章第二段告诉我们“No one has discovered why this is so”，即没人知道为什么每个人的能量周期不同，因此我们也不知道是不是有遗传因素，所以选择选项C。
第三段第一句告诉我们虽然可以让自己的生活适应能量周期，但是“you can't change your energy cycle"，因此本句表述是错误的，应当选择选项B。
文章第三段最后两句建议早上处于低潮的人们要比平时起得早，这样才能工作得更好。因此本句的陈述是正确的。 -

第三篇
Look After Your Voice
Often speakers at a meeting experience dry mouths and ask for a glass of water. You can solve the problem
by activating the saliva in you mouth.First gently bite the edges of your tongue with your teeth.Or press
your entire tongue to the bottom of your mouth and hold it there until the saliva flow.Or you can imagine that
you are slicing a big juicy lemon and sucking the juice.
Before you begin your talk,be kind to your voice.Avoid milk or creamy drinks which coat your throat.
Keep your throat wet by drinking a little sweetened warm tea or diluted fruit juice.
If you sense that your are losing your voice,stop talking completely.Save your voice for your speech.
You may feel foolish using paper to write notes,but the best thing you can do is to rest your voice.If you
need to see a doctor,perhaps you can get some advice from a professional singer. In the meantime,do not
even talk in a low voice.
What about drinking alcohol to wet your throat?I advice you not to touch alcohol before speaking. The
problem with alcohol is that one drink gives you a little confidence.The second drink gives you even more
confidence.Finally you will feel all-powerful and you will feel you can do everything,but in fact your brain
and your mouth do not work together properly.Save the alcohol until after you finish speaking.
Perhaps you want to accept the advice,but you may wonder if you can ever change the habits of a life-
time.Of course you can.Goethe,who lived before indoor skating rinks or swimming pools,said,"We learn
to skate in the summer and swim in the winter."Take this message to heart and give yourself time to develop
your new habits.If you are willing to change,you will soon be able to say that you will never forget these
techniques because they became a part of your body.All the following are mentioned in the passage about how to solve the problem of dry mouths EXCEPT__________.
A:to bite the edges of your tongue
B:to ask for a glass of water
C:to imagine you are having a sour fruit
D:to take cool milk答案：D解析：在文章第一段中，作者提到三种解决讲话时口干的方法，分别对应A、B、C选项。故 选D。
由文章第三段第三句“...but the best thing you can do is to rest your voice.”可知，答案 为A。
由文章第四段可知，作者忠告演说者在演说之前千万不要饮酒。故选B。
文章最后一段中歌德的原话是“We learn to skate in the summer and swim in the winter",A项与歌德的说法最接近。
作者在最后一段引用歌德的话想证明，一个人在一生中养成的习惯如果想改还是可以 改的。故选C。第5部分：补全短文 -

第20题：
问答题Some people say that the best preparation for life is learning to be cooperative. Others take the opposite view and say that learning to be competitive is the best preparation. Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic，expressing your views on cooperation and competition. COOPERATION OR COMPETITION In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary. Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：
COOPERATION OR COMPETITION It is difficult to figure out whether cooperation or competition is more important. Although cooperation is widely emphasized in the world, competition, I believe, still plays an essential part in people's lives. Learning to be competitive is clearly the best preparation for life. This becomes very clear as one has more experience in the world. Everyone is out to make their own lives better. If you are not competitive, you may lose many chances and be left behind.
In the first place, everyone knows that Man is by nature a competitive, aggressive, and selfish animal. This is why Man can dominant the world, even though Man is not the strongest species. Darwin, in The Origin of the Species, makes it very clear that the weak will die, and only the strong will survive. Since this is our fate, the only intelligent thing to do is to be strong, and be a winner.
Competition exists in almost every field. In the business world, for instance, everyone knows that the most important order of the day is to beat your competitors. This can only be done by competing with any and all means necessary to win. If your product is not competitive, you can not obtain the trust of customers. No one wants to go out of business, so you must compete. Also in your workplace, you must be better than the other employees you are working with, because in this age of downsizing you do not want to be fired. Likewise, in the sports world, the strongest will come out as winners. They become our heroes and they are glorified in every way. In fact, the only way our world rewards people is to give trophies to the winners, not to the losers. Only the winner will be remembered. Everyone wants glory in life and learning to be competitive is the only path to glory.
Therefore, the only way to survive in this world is to be competitive. To learn to cooperate is a ridiculous way to live one' s life. In fact, I know that when I wish to beat someone who is weaker willed than, I would use his foolish cooperative actions against him in the end.解析：
竞争与合作一直是写作考试热衷的话题。本文立场鲜明，论证有力。作者从人的本性、商界及体育界现实出发，说明只有竞争才能在当今世界生存。虽然对许多中国学生来说本文的观点会有些偏激，但从西式思维出发，本文可算一篇佳作。 -
