Section II Use of English
21.[C]。考查形容詞與上下文理解。前面一句說的是大型機(jī)器人的制造商十多年來一直在解釋這些機(jī)器的作用,而此句說的是現(xiàn)在的情況,說明這種大型機(jī)器人已經(jīng)供大于求,因此承前選[C]。
22.[A]。考查動詞辨義與表達(dá)。claim to be/d0是常用表達(dá),指“聲稱如何”,此處是用被動語態(tài)。call和 tell都是及物動詞且可跟雙賓語,speak后只跟語言作賓語或者用作不及物動詞,都不用于這一表達(dá)中。
23.[D]??疾榇钆洹ifficulty后用介詞in引出限定內(nèi)容,指做某事有困難。
24.EB]。考查名詞辨義與上下文理解。money錢;discount折扣;price價格,價錢;cost代價,成本。由于謂語動詞是0ffer(提供),且由常識與上下文可知一種新品打入市場時應(yīng)該是用打折的方法,因此選[B]。25.[D]。考查形容詞與上下文理解。excitin9令人興奮的;encouragin9令人鼓舞的;despairing絕望的(一般用于修飾人);disappointin9令人失望的。由上下文文意可知,這里應(yīng)指對機(jī)器人的需求增長并不像人們預(yù)期的那樣,因此選J-D]。
26.[A]??疾榇钆?。deceive oneself是固定搭配,指“自欺欺人”。其余三項填入都不合邏輯。
27.[B]??疾榻樵~與上下文理解。由空格后的結(jié)構(gòu)可以看出,這里是不定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)作介詞賓語,且由句意可知表示的是目的,因此選for。
28.[C]。考查固定搭配與上下文理解。as if似乎,好像;even though即使;just as正如;although盡管,雖然。由上下文與常識可知,這里是將已有的電腦教育與尚未推廣的機(jī)器人教育進(jìn)行類比,因此選[C]。
29.[B]??疾槊~與上下文理解。custom風(fēng)俗,習(xí)俗;literacy了解和使用某物的能力;poem詩; tradition傳統(tǒng)。因前一分句中已經(jīng)提到了literacy一詞,且其他三項都不用computer修飾,故承前選[B]。
30.[A]。考查形容詞與上下文理解。由于文章談?wù)摰氖菣C(jī)器人,屬于一種人工智能,且選項中只有[A]、[B]兩項能修飾intelligence,而[B]填入不合邏輯,因此只能選[A]。
31.[D]。考查形容詞與上下文理解。capable有能力的(它單用時一般作定語,作表語時多與0f連用); possible可能的;probable很可能的;available可得到的。由空格前的needs可知只能選[D],指“需要有(某種形式的人工智能)”。

35.[C]??疾樾稳菰~與上下文理解。這一段都是在對比大小兩種規(guī)模的機(jī)器人制造廠商,而前面一句說明的是大公司,那么此處就是指小的機(jī)器人制造公司了,因此選與前文中big相對的little。

Section III Reading Comprehension
PartA
Text 1
41.[A]。主旨題。文章第一段為全文的主旨段,第一句話即說明社會必須從公開宣傳和課堂教育兩個方面為人們提供關(guān)于AIDS的教育,然后分析了作者自己在大學(xué)開設(shè)AIDS課程的原因。而后面兩段則是論述了他開設(shè)這一課程要達(dá)到的兩個重要目標(biāo)。因此不難看出全文主旨為[A]。
42.[D]。分析推理題。第一段分析了作者自己在大學(xué)開設(shè)AIDS課程的原因。作者指出,那些患上 AIDS的人和高危人群受到人們的歧視和不公正對待,人們害怕他們,而其他人則表現(xiàn)得強(qiáng)作鎮(zhèn)定,這些都是be fatal。此外,AIDS已經(jīng)使這個本已缺少人性、友好和樂觀的社會雪上加霜,等等,都是作者開設(shè)這一課程的原因。對照選項,可知應(yīng)選[D]。
43.[B]。詞義推測題。由該詞賓語society的后置定語already short on…and optimism可以看出, affilctb應(yīng)當(dāng)是一種否定性含義,含有讓本已不好的狀況進(jìn)一步惡化的意思。四個選項中只有[B]是否定義。 afflict本義指“使染上重病,折磨”。
44.[C]。細(xì)節(jié)題。答案信息對應(yīng)于第二段第二句:The proper response to AIDS is compassion…an understanding of the disease itself,即對待艾滋病的正確態(tài)度是同情并了解這一疾病本身,選[C]。
45.[C]。分析推理題。題中一句話是第三段的主旨句,第三段談?wù)摰氖菄覇挝?、社會機(jī)構(gòu)等對待艾滋病的態(tài)度會影響到與這一疾病的斗爭結(jié)果、影響到社會的文明程度。由此可知這一主旨句的意思是[C]。

46.ED]。分析推理題。文章談?wù)摰氖乔舐氄咴诿嬖嚂r應(yīng)注意的幾個方面,而第一段論及的是衣著,第蘭段論述的是說話方式,第三段說明的是對所求職位、工作的了解,第四段論述的是表達(dá)自信和對工作的熱情。而在第一段中,作者強(qiáng)調(diào)的是恰當(dāng)?shù)囊轮?modestly dressed、the right clothes)對于求職者的重要性,因此本題無疑應(yīng)選[D]。其余三項都是作者所反對的。本題也可由常識推知答案。
47.[A]。細(xì)節(jié)題。答案信息對應(yīng)于第一段后一句:but the first and often lasting impression…the Clothes you wear,即衣著決定第一印象(往往也是一種持久的印象)。
48.[C]。細(xì)節(jié)題。第二段第二句指出:You should speak in a clear voice,loud enough…,即說話時應(yīng)清楚、響亮,與[C]一致。
49.[D]。細(xì)節(jié)題。答案信息對應(yīng)于第三段第三句:The interviewer can decide from the questions asked...,而此句前一句又說明了這些問題(questions)是與所求職位和工作要求有關(guān)的,能體現(xiàn)求職者對所求工作的了解,因此本題答案為[D]。
50.[D]。分析推理題。參見第46題的分析。[A]是第一段的主旨,[B]是第二段的主旨,[C]是后一段的主旨,因此都是面試成功的決定因素。

51.[B]。細(xì)節(jié)題。對應(yīng)的信息位于第一段第九句,作者引用學(xué)者的話指出:Slavery in its extreme forms...was common to both Africa and the West,即非洲和西方的奴隸制度(在本質(zhì)上)是相同的,故本題答案是[B]。其余三項都與原文表達(dá)的意思不符。
52.[B]。細(xì)節(jié)題。短文第一段在提到奴隸制度在非洲由來已久之后,簡單說明了一下非洲奴隸的情況,其中第五句指出:They had clearly defined rights,and their slave status was not necessarily inherited(他們擁有明確的權(quán)利,且其奴隸身份并非一定會繼承),也就是說,一名奴隸的子女不一定會是奴隸,故本題選[B]。當(dāng)然,由于答題的關(guān)鍵在于對這一句話的理解,因此也可將本題歸入詞句理解題中。其余三項都屬于抓住原文中的詞句進(jìn)行的無據(jù)發(fā)揮,都是不對的。
53.[A]。詞句理解題。該句字面上的意思是“然而,這種論點可能說得太過(即有失偏頗)了”。在該句之后,作者引用學(xué)者的話語進(jìn)一步說明“只有西方的奴隸制度才是殘忍和滅絕人性的”是一種illusion(錯覺),非洲的奴隸制度和西方的奴隸制度本質(zhì)上是一樣的。也就是說,作者和這些學(xué)者都認(rèn)為非洲的奴隸制度也是慘無人道的(inhumane),因此本題答案是[A]。其余三項都屬于抓住原文中的個別詞句進(jìn)行的發(fā)揮,在原文中都沒有體現(xiàn),也無法由原文合理推知。
54.[C]。細(xì)節(jié)題。rationalization(合理化)一詞出現(xiàn)在短文第二段后半部分。在該段后一句中,作者舉例說明了持這種態(tài)度的人的觀點:It was argued…assured the conversion of the African evil—believing religions to the true faith as well as to civilization(這種觀點認(rèn)為……奴役制度確保讓非洲各種信奉魔鬼的宗教皈依到真正的信仰,并且確保非洲得以文明化),換句話說,持奴隸制度合理化觀點的人認(rèn)為這種制度有助于非洲的文明化,故本題答案就是[C]。其他三項都似是而非,將它們與原文對照即不難發(fā)現(xiàn)都不對。
55.[D]。分析推理題。本題形式較為特殊,屬于推斷段落之間關(guān)系,即作者寫作邏輯的題目。在第一段,作者先介紹了非洲奴隸的基本情況,如奴隸來源、奴隸制度的特點等,然后引用學(xué)者的話語,反駁了認(rèn)為非洲奴隸制度比西方奴隸制度要溫和的觀點,提出了“非洲奴隸制度和西方奴隸制度在本質(zhì)上同樣慘無人道”的觀點。而在第二段一開始,作者用Granting all this(就算承認(rèn)這一切)表明了自己是對上述觀點進(jìn)行進(jìn)一步分析,接著便詳細(xì)介紹了歐洲奴隸貿(mào)易的特點,強(qiáng)調(diào)的是歐洲組織的奴隸貿(mào)易與非洲傳統(tǒng)的奴隸制度的不同。因此,這兩段之間的關(guān)系很明顯:后者是對前者中的問題做進(jìn)一步分析,故選[D]。其余三項都不對。[A]項指“質(zhì)疑第一段中提出的觀點”,但作者是贊同前一段中學(xué)者的觀點的;[B]項指“修正他在第一段提出的觀點”,但作者在第一段并未提出自己的觀點;[C]項指“為第一段中的論點提供原因”,同樣也不對。
Text 4
56.[D]。細(xì)節(jié)題。對應(yīng)的信息位于第一段第二句....a small industry is emerging that will…a congressional hearing,選項中能夠概括該句中queue for you to get everything from…這種工作性質(zhì)的是[D]項,因為排隊領(lǐng)駕照、排隊申請國會聽證會座位等工作都屬于go through official procedures(通過官方手續(xù))的范疇。其余三項都是用該句中的個別詞匯設(shè)置而成的干擾項。
57.[D]。分析推理題。文章第二段以Michael Dorsey這個人物為例,說明這種新興行業(yè)的具體運(yùn)作。該段第二句指出,他原來在交通裁定局工作;第三句指出,他知道違章停車罰單的正確書寫格式,所以經(jīng)常使得一些罰單因填寫格式不正確而失效。由這兩句不難推知,他原來的工作經(jīng)歷有助于他現(xiàn)在的工作,故[D]項正確。其余三項都與這兩句不符。
58.[C]。分析推理題。文章第三段介紹了對服務(wù)加速者這一新興行當(dāng)?shù)姆磳σ庖姟F渲械谝痪涫紫戎赋霾⒎撬腥硕枷矚g服務(wù)加速者。第二句說明在華盛頓特區(qū),罰款和手續(xù)費等非稅收收入占據(jù)了地方政府收入的7%左右,第三句則說明Dorsey(服務(wù)加速者)一個人每年就會讓這一部分收入減少l5萬美元。由上下文邏輯即可推知,這種新興行業(yè)有損于地方政府的利益,地方政府肯定不喜歡這種行業(yè)存在。故[C]項正確。其余三項都屬于根據(jù)該段中的個別詞句而設(shè)置的干擾項,與原文相應(yīng)之處都不符。
59.[C]。分析推理題。文章后兩段從正面分析了服務(wù)加速者這一新行業(yè)的好處。短文第五段第一句指出,服務(wù)加速者也許會使一些官僚感到羞愧而努力提高服務(wù)水平(pull their socks up),這與[C]項的意思是一致的,因此本題答案是[C]。原文中的shame(使羞愧)和選項中的sting(刺激)都是非常形象、俏皮的用詞,其意思是相同的。至于其他三項,[A]項對應(yīng)于第四段第三句:Poor foreigners with little English… so do elderly and disabled people…,服務(wù)加速者代老年人和殘疾人排隊,屬于一種解決困難的行為,而非僅僅是“挑出困難”(pick out troubles),故該項不對;[B]項與第三段第三句的意思不符;[D]項與第四段第三句不符。將它們與原文進(jìn)行對照都不難排除。

(i)這是一道結(jié)合了提綱式和圖表的寫作題。對于這種結(jié)合多種題型的寫作來說,在答題時同樣應(yīng)遵循每種題型的方法、要求,并將它們有機(jī)地結(jié)合起來。

Dear Sir,
I have conducted a leasibility study of expanding our business on the Internet these days according to your instructions.
First,it has been found that,in China,the number of people having access to the Internet has increased rapidly,which more than doubled in the past two years,from 22.5 million in 2005 to 59.1 million in 2007,which indicates that more and more people will be able to buy,or at least leam about our products via the Internet if we are to advertise more on the Internet.
Second,our sales volume via the Internet has increased considerably in the past tWO years,from 56000 yuan to 106000 yuan.
Finally,I have surveyed rnore than 5000 people and found that near half(47.3%)of the subjects have heard of buying things through the Intemet,while only l4.7%are willing to do so and 3.1%did haye such experience.Although the percentage is pretty low at present,I do believe that e-shopping will become more popular with the advent of an“Intemet Age”.
In this sense,I strongly suggest that we expand business through the Internet
Yours Faithfully,
Jane
