PART II Reading Comprehension (40 points )
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or
unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.
Passage one
Just as Mrs. Waldman hands out the spelling test, you see Jeff pull out a small piece of paper with a lot of words on it. Jeff hides the note into his closed fist but soon takes it out again. While he’s taking the test, you see him looking back and forth between the teacher and his paper. There’s no mistaking it---he’s cheating.
Cheating is when a person misleads, deceives, or acts dishonestly on purpose. For kids, cheating may happen at school, at home, or while playing a sport. If a baseball team is for kids who are 8 or younger, it’s cheating for a 9-year-old to play on the team.
At school, in addition to cheating on a test, a kid might cheat by stealing someone else’s idea for a science project or by copying a book report off the internet and turning it in as if it’s his or her original work.
One is inclined to cheat because it makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test---unless the person cheats again.
Sometimes it may seem like cheaters have it all figured out. They can watch TV instead of studying for the spelling test. But other people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
16. Why did Jeff look at the teacher from time to time while taking the test?
A. He was afraid that the teacher might find out what he was doing.
B. He had a question for the teacher but was afraid to ask.
C. He wanted to get the teacher’s attention.
D. He wanted to hand in his paper as he was done with it.
17. According to the author, cheating .
A. occurs mainly in test-related settings
B. can take on various forms and happen anywhere
C. usually happens when one is doing a science project
D. happens when we don’t know the answer to a question
18. What can’t cheating help to do?
A. To pass examinations.
B. To get a satisfactory score.
C. To make difficult things easy.
D. To really get the knowledge.
19. Which of the following statements is closest in meaning to “cheaters have it all figured out” (Para.5)?
A. Cheaters know they won’t be caught.
B. Cheaters make a plan in advance.
C. Cheaters can reach a balance between work and play.
D. Cheaters clearly know the consequences of cheating.
20. The main purpose of the passage is to .
A. inform readers why people cheat
B. predict possible consequences of cheating
C. persuade students to quit cheating
D. discuss different occasions when people cheat
Passage Two
Experts say over half of the world’s seven thousand languages are in danger of disappearing. Every two weeks one language disappears.
Sometimes a language disappears immediately when the last person speaking it dies. Or, a local language might disappear more slowly. This happens when an official language is used more often and children stop learning the local language of their parents. Official languages often represent a form of control over a group of people.
Throughout history, the language spoken by a powerful group spreads across a civilization. The more powerful culture rarely respects the language and culture of smaller groups. Smaller cultures lose their local language as the language of the culture in power has a stronger influence.
Experts say protecting languages is very important for many reasons. Languages contain the histories, ideas and knowledge of a culture. Languages also contain valuable information about local medicines, plants and animals.
Many endangered languages are spoken by native cultures in close contact with the natural world. Their ancient languages contain a great deal of information about environmental systems and species of plants and animals that are unknown to scientists. As the last speakers of a language die off, the valuable information carried within a language also disappears. Language is, in many ways, a window to the mind and the world.
Any hope for protecting languages can be found in children and their willingness to learn. It is these young people who can keep this form of culture alive for future generations.
21. Which of the following is true?
A. No one can prevent languages from disappearing.
B. There will not be any local languages left some day.
C. There have existed 7,000 languages in history.
D. Half of the world’s languages will possibly disappear.
22. An official language is a language that .
A. is highly advanced B. has a stronger influence
C. competes with a local language D. has a longer history
23. Language is a window to the mind and the world because .
A. it contains information about both culture and nature.
B. it represents the working of the human minds
C. local languages are more closely related to culture
D. ancient languages can reveal ancient people’s thoughts
24. According to the passage, a language will be better protected when .
A. it is linked to a powerful culture
B. people are forced to speak it
C. it keeps pace with the times
D. children are interested in learning it
25. The passage mainly discusses .
A. language and culture B. the power of language
C. language protection D. local languages
Passage Three
There’s a professor at the University of Toronto in Canada who has come up with a term to describe the way a lot of us North Americans interact these years. And now a big research study confirms it.
Barry Wellman’s term is “networked individualism.” It’s not the easiest concept to grasp. In fact, the words seem to contradict each other. How can we be individualistic and networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.
Here’s what he means. Until the Internet and e-mail came along, our social networks involved flesh-and-blood relatives, friends, neighbors, and colleagues at work. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.
But the latest study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project confirms that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced a great deal of social interchange. A lot of folks Pew talked with say that’s a good thing, because of concerns that the Internet was turning us into hermits(隱居者) who shut out other people in favor of a make-believe world on computer screens.
To the contrary, the Pew study discovered. The Internet has put us in touch with many MORE real people than we’d have ever imagined. Helpful people, too. We’re turning to an ever-growing list of cyber friends for advice on careers, medical crises, child-rearing, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important or crucial role in helping them deal with major life decisions.
So we networked individuals are pretty tricky: we’re keeping more to ourselves, while at the same time reaching out to more people, all with just the click of a computer mouse!
26. The Pew study was conducted in .
A. Latin America B. Canada
C. the United States D. Europe
27. In this passage, the network refers to a lot of connected .
A. friends B. people
C. computers D. roads
28. Before the invention of the Internet, our connections with people took place mainly .
A. in person B. by phone
C. by letter D. by e-mail
29. Which of the following has happened since the invention of the Internet?
A. People talk on the phone more than ever.
B. Much personal interaction has given way to computer interaction.
C. Americans are getting more isolated.
D. Americans have become more dependent on computers.
30. According to the Pew study, the role played by the Internet in human interaction is .
A. neutral B. negative
C. unclear D. positive
Passage Four
President Obama has signed legislation to make the biggest changes in the health care system in forty-five years. Many parts of the plan will fully take effect in four years. But some take effect quickly. For example, in six months the new law will ban insurance companies from denying coverage to children with pre-existing health conditions. Adults with pre-existing conditions will be added in four years.
The government will help millions of people pay for insurance. It will also permit millions more to receive free coverage through the Medicaid program for the poor. In all, the plan aims to make health insurance available to 32 million people now without it. Illegal immigrants will not be able to take part.
An estimated 83% of people under 65 who are in the US legally now have insurance coverage. The plan is expected to raise that to 95% within several years. People over 65 are covered by the Medicaid insurance program which the government created in 1965.
For the first time, Americans will be required to have health insurance or face a yearly fine starting in four years. The law will also require companies with more than 50 employees to offer coverage. If not, they could face a fine of $2,000 a year for every worker.
Also, this year the law will start closing what is known as “the doughnut hole”. That is a lack of Medicaid coverage for some drug costs for older Americans. President Obama promised senior citizens that the reforms will not cut their guaranteed benefits.
The changes are expected to cost about $940 billion over ten years, but also help reduce the federal budget deficit.
31. According to the new health care plan, which of the following will be added first into insurance programs?
A. Employees of small companies.
B. Adults with pre-existing health conditions.
C. Poor people now without health insurance.
D. Children with pre-existing health conditions.
32. It can be inferred from the passage that the new Medicaid program for the poor will .
A. provide free health insurance for 32 million people
B. provide free health insurance for all poor people
C. be also applied to legal immigrants
D. cover 83% of the people under 65
33. It seems that at present, large companies that do not offer health insurance coverage to their employees .
A. face heavy fines
B. do not receive punishments
C. are required to do so
D. do not benefit from doing so
34. The “doughnut hole” implies that are not covered by the existing Medicaid program.
A. some drug costs for older Americans
B. senior citizens over 65
C. illegal immigrants
D. expensed for hospital stay
35. Generally speaking, President Obama’s health insurance reform will .
A. bring heavy financial burdens to the country
B. pose heavy financial burdens to the poor
C. benefit both the people and the country

Mass immigration has benefited the economy greatly over the past ten years, a report claims today.
It has helped avoid 76 of labor and skilled workers and the economy has been able to stay on a “stable growth path”, 77 the Work Foundation.
Interest and inflation rates have also been kept 78 as a result of people coming to work in Britain--- and this has not led to lower wages for workers or 79 unemployment levels. “The government has had hard time over immigration, not because it has lost control of the issue, 80 because it has failed to tell a convincing story 81 steady high-quality information,” the report claims.
“The official statistics are so irregular that the government finds 82 difficult to defend otherwise good policies.” The Work Foundation is calling for work restrictions 83 Romanians and Bulgarians to be relaxed. The countries joined the European Union last year but their citizens do not have full 84 to move to Britain.

參考答案及精解
PartⅠ. Dialogue Completion (15 points)
1. D 在回答對(duì)方贊揚(yáng)時(shí)，英語(yǔ)中習(xí)慣的回答是“謝謝”。因此D為正確答案。
2. C 當(dāng)對(duì)方為所做的事情表示“歉意（sorry）”時(shí)，英語(yǔ)中習(xí)慣的回答不是“批評(píng)”。ABD三個(gè)答案都有“批評(píng)”的意思。因此C為正確答案。
3. D “Not me”的意思是“不是我；我不行；我不適合”；“So do I”的意思是“我也一樣”；“Same here”的意思是“我也是，彼此彼此”；“You got it”的意思是“沒問(wèn)題，你干掉它！給你啦！”。針對(duì)說(shuō)話人B回答“Pizza”時(shí)，說(shuō)話人A說(shuō)他自己喜歡巧克力冰激凌。根據(jù)此情景，說(shuō)話人A應(yīng)該是贊同說(shuō)話人B的觀點(diǎn)，但是自己卻有不同的選擇。因此選項(xiàng)D為正確答案。
4. A 當(dāng)說(shuō)話人A對(duì)電腦表示抱怨時(shí)，說(shuō)話人B回答道“把電腦重啟吧！”這是在給出建議，與此建議相搭配的應(yīng)該是A答案“看看會(huì)不會(huì)好一點(diǎn)：是否有用”；B答案表達(dá)的是“無(wú)能為力”；C答案表達(dá)的是“誰(shuí)知道？”；D答案表達(dá)的是“還有啥？”
5. A “It’s a lost cause.”是句習(xí)語(yǔ)，其意思是“沒希望了”。C答案當(dāng)中的“cause”和D答案當(dāng)中的“Lost”都誤解了習(xí)語(yǔ)當(dāng)中的意思，B答案與說(shuō)話人A的話不相關(guān)。A答案表達(dá)的是一種責(zé)備。“It serves you right!”的意思是“活該”。
6. A A答案的意思是“我也是”，用于強(qiáng)調(diào)含否定意義的短語(yǔ)；沒有“Me alike”這種表達(dá)；C答案用于肯定的認(rèn)同；D答案應(yīng)該是“Not that I know of”，其意思是“我不知道；據(jù)我所知不是那樣”。因此選項(xiàng)A為正確答案。
7. C You know what?（你知道嗎？）；That's good！（太好了！）；Don’t worry（不用擔(dān)心）；That’s it.（對(duì)；就是這樣了；就這么回事；就是如此了）。說(shuō)話人A表示了對(duì)手術(shù)的恐懼，說(shuō)話人B對(duì)其進(jìn)行了安慰。因此C選項(xiàng)為正確答案。
8. A Don’t look at me（別看著我，與我無(wú)關(guān)！）；You ask for it!（活該；自找的！）；You bet！（你可確信；的確；當(dāng)然！）；Don’t be silly！（別傻了；別犯傻）。根據(jù)上下文，A選項(xiàng)為正確答案。
9. D 說(shuō)話人A說(shuō)：“麻煩接分機(jī)1058.”該句話并不是真正意義上的疑問(wèn)句，所以回答不用“Yes”或者“No”。B答案：“好的，給你”不符合對(duì)話場(chǎng)景。D選項(xiàng)“對(duì)不起，您要的電話正忙”符合該打電話場(chǎng)景。
10. C 說(shuō)話人A對(duì)說(shuō)話人B表示祝賀，習(xí)慣的回答首先是“謝謝！”C選項(xiàng)“Thank you for the good news”（非常感謝你的這個(gè)好消息）符合題意，為正確答案。
11. C 游客說(shuō)“想去大英博物館”，警察回答“不，不是很遠(yuǎn)。大約十分鐘的路程”，這說(shuō)明游客問(wèn)的是“遠(yuǎn)近”問(wèn)題。根據(jù)情境，C選項(xiàng)符合該場(chǎng)景。
12. D I think so（我也這樣認(rèn)為）；I can’t wait（我迫不及待）；Good for you!（好得很！真服了你；對(duì)你有好處）；That’s fine with me.（好；沒問(wèn)題；我沒意見）。說(shuō)話人A說(shuō)“火車10點(diǎn)出發(fā)，我9點(diǎn)鐘能夠來(lái)接你”，根據(jù)四個(gè)選項(xiàng)的意義，D選項(xiàng)符合該場(chǎng)景。
13. A 說(shuō)話人A對(duì)未能趕上最后一趟火車而感到歉意，英語(yǔ)中習(xí)慣的回答不是“批評(píng)”。因此A選項(xiàng)“請(qǐng)不必說(shuō)抱歉”符合該場(chǎng)景。
14. B 說(shuō)話人A說(shuō)“你肯定就是特迪。歡迎你來(lái)！”，這表明說(shuō)話雙方應(yīng)該相互不認(rèn)識(shí)。“I’m fine. Thank you.”是對(duì)“How do you do?”的回答。“Here I am.”的意思是“我是；我到了；我就在這里”。“Who’s speaking please?”是電話用語(yǔ)。因此B選項(xiàng)“我是特迪。請(qǐng)問(wèn)你是......？”符合此情景。
15. C 選項(xiàng)AB答非所問(wèn)。“I wonder if you could tell me where to get map?”是個(gè)一般疑問(wèn)句，對(duì)其肯定的回答一般用“Yes”或者“Sure”。因此答案選C。
PartⅡ. Reading Comprehension (40points)
Passage 1
16. A 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)“There’s no mistaking it---he’s cheating.”和“you see him looking back and forth between the teacher and his paper”，我們可以推斷出Jeff害怕（afraid）被老師發(fā)現(xiàn)其作弊。
17. A 細(xì)節(jié)分析題。B選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中的“anywhere”，C選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中的“usually”，以及D選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中的“happens when we don’t know the answer to a question”均未在文章中出現(xiàn)。從“At school, in addition to cheating on a test,”可以得出“mainly in test-related settings”的分析結(jié)果。
18. D 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。文章第四段第二句“But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material…”與“can’t help to really get the knowledge”意義對(duì)應(yīng)，由此可知答案為D項(xiàng)。
19. D 單詞釋義題。“have it all figured out”意為“弄明白什么事情；把事情搞清楚了”，這與D選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中的“clearly know the consequences of cheating”意義對(duì)應(yīng)。因此D選項(xiàng)為正確答案。
20. C 文章主旨題。文章最后一句話“Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.”表明了文章的主旨——“quit cheating”。
參考譯文：
正當(dāng)沃德曼太太分發(fā)拼寫試卷時(shí)，你看見杰夫拿出一張上面寫滿密密麻麻詞語(yǔ)的小紙片。杰夫把它藏在自己緊握的拳頭中，但是很快又把它拿了出來(lái)。當(dāng)他正在進(jìn)行考試時(shí)，你看見他的目光來(lái)來(lái)回回地在老師與試卷間徘徊。錯(cuò)不了——他在作弊。
當(dāng)一個(gè)人出現(xiàn)故意誤導(dǎo)、欺騙或不誠(chéng)實(shí)行為時(shí)，這就是作弊。對(duì)于孩子來(lái)說(shuō)，舞弊可能發(fā)生在學(xué)校，家庭或進(jìn)行一場(chǎng)運(yùn)動(dòng)比賽時(shí)。如果一支棒球隊(duì)只能由8歲或更小的孩子組成的話，那么9歲孩子參與其中便是一種作弊。
在學(xué)校，除了試卷上的作弊，小孩子也可能通過(guò)盜取他人在科學(xué)項(xiàng)目上的思想或通過(guò)網(wǎng)絡(luò)抄襲讀書報(bào)告，并把它作為是自己的原創(chuàng)作品提交上去而作弊。
一個(gè)人傾向于作弊是因?yàn)樽鞅姿坪踝審?fù)雜的事情看起來(lái)簡(jiǎn)單了，就像能夠獲得試卷上的正確答案一樣。但是作弊并不能幫你解決你所不知道的問(wèn)題，而且它對(duì)下一次考試也無(wú)益——除非這個(gè)人繼續(xù)作弊。
有時(shí)候作弊者似乎是一切都明白。他們可能看電視而不去為了拼寫測(cè)試學(xué)習(xí)。但是其他人卻對(duì)這些作弊者失去了尊重，并且看不起他們。作弊者自己也許會(huì)因?yàn)樗麄冏约簠⒘怂值某煽?jī)而感覺糟糕。而且，如果他們作弊被抓，他們?cè)趯W(xué)校將陷入麻煩之中，可能在家里也難逃麻煩。
一些孩子作弊是因?yàn)樗麄兒苊蛘吆軕校幌牖〞r(shí)間學(xué)習(xí)就想得到好成績(jī)。其他一些孩子認(rèn)為自己如果不作弊的話就無(wú)法通過(guò)考試。即使當(dāng)每一次作弊都看上去理由充分時(shí)，但作弊不是個(gè)好主意。
Passage 2
21. D 細(xì)節(jié)分析題。A選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中的“No one”和B選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中的“not be any”都是非常絕對(duì)的答案，文中沒有提及。C選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中的“7,000 languages in history”屬于過(guò)度概括，文中也沒有提及。D選項(xiàng)當(dāng)中的“will possibly disappear”是對(duì)文章第一段第一句的正確解讀。
22. B 細(xì)節(jié)分析題。根據(jù)文章第二段第二句當(dāng)中所提及的official language “is used more often” and “often represent a form of control over a group of people.”，我們可以得出official language has a stronger influence。選項(xiàng)ACD均未在文中提及。
23. A 細(xì)節(jié)分析題。第四段第二、三句“Languages contain the histories, ideas and knowledge of a culture. Languages also contain valuable information about local medicines, plants and animals.”中包含了“culture and nature”的信息，由此可分析出A選項(xiàng)為正確答案。BCD當(dāng)中的“the working of the human minds”，“more closely”和“reveal ancient people’s thoughts”文中均未提及。
24. D 細(xì)節(jié)分析題。由文中最后一段第一句“Any hope for protecting languages can be found in children and their willingness to learn. 可推斷選項(xiàng)D正確，其余各項(xiàng)文中均未提及。
25. C 文章主旨題。文章第四段第一句“Experts say protecting languages is very important for many reasons.”是主題句，而且文章最后一句提到“It is these young people who can keep this form of culture alive for future generations.”，而“this form of culture”指的就是“language”，由此可知C項(xiàng)正確。
參考譯文：
專家說(shuō)世界上的7000種語(yǔ)言，大約有超過(guò)一半以上的語(yǔ)言面臨著消失的危險(xiǎn)。每?jī)蓚€(gè)星期就有一種語(yǔ)言消失。

Passage 3
26. C 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。由文章第四段第一句話“the Pew Internet and American Life Project”和第五段的最后一句“About 60 million Americans told Pew”可知C項(xiàng)正確。
27. B 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。文章第二段第二句提到“Until the Internet and e-mail came along, our social networks involved flesh-and-blood relatives, friends, neighbors, and colleagues at work.”，中間的“relatives, friends, neighbors, and colleagues at work”指的都是“people”，由此可知B項(xiàng)正確。
28. A 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。由文章第二段第三句“Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.”中的“person to person”可知A項(xiàng)正確。
29. B 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。由文章第四段第一句“electronic interaction through the computer has replaced a great deal of social interchange.”可知B項(xiàng)正確。
30. A 文章主旨題。從文章最后一段“So we networked individuals are pretty tricky...”可以看出作者中立的觀點(diǎn)，因此A項(xiàng)正確。
參考譯文：
加拿大多倫多大學(xué)的一名教授提出了一個(gè)術(shù)語(yǔ)，這個(gè)術(shù)語(yǔ)描述了我們很多北美人近年來(lái)的互動(dòng)方式。并且一項(xiàng)重大的研究調(diào)查證實(shí)了這一點(diǎn)。
巴利·威爾曼的術(shù)語(yǔ)是“網(wǎng)絡(luò)個(gè)體主義 ”。這并不是個(gè)容易理解的概念。實(shí)際上，這兩個(gè)字看上去自相矛盾。我們?cè)趺纯梢酝瑫r(shí)做到個(gè)性化并且網(wǎng)絡(luò)化？你需要其他人來(lái)組建你的網(wǎng)絡(luò)。
這是他一直所認(rèn)為的。在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)和電子郵件的到來(lái)之前，我們的社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)涉及有血有肉的親戚、朋友、鄰居以及共事的同事。其中一些交流是靠手機(jī)，但是仍然是實(shí)時(shí)的聲音對(duì)聲音，人與人之間的交流。
但是佩尤研究中心“網(wǎng)絡(luò)與美國(guó)生活項(xiàng)目”的最新研究證實(shí)，對(duì)于大多數(shù)人來(lái)說(shuō)，通過(guò)電腦的電子互動(dòng)已經(jīng)替代了一大部分的社會(huì)交流。互聯(lián)網(wǎng)正在讓我們成為拒絕其他人而支持電腦屏幕上的虛幻世界的隱居者，因?yàn)閷?duì)此的關(guān)心，佩尤研究中心所調(diào)查的很多人認(rèn)為這是件好事。
相反，佩尤研究中心的研究表明：互聯(lián)網(wǎng)讓我們接觸到的人比我們真實(shí)想象到的要多得多，同時(shí)還很用幫助的人。為了尋求有關(guān)求職、醫(yī)療風(fēng)險(xiǎn)、小孩撫養(yǎng)和選擇學(xué)校或大學(xué)的建議，我們正在不斷擴(kuò)大網(wǎng)絡(luò)交際面。大約有6000萬(wàn)美國(guó)人通過(guò)佩尤研究中心認(rèn)為互聯(lián)網(wǎng)在幫助他們作出人生的重要抉擇時(shí)起著一個(gè)至關(guān)重要的作用。
所以我們這些網(wǎng)絡(luò)化的個(gè)人很是滑稽：我們自己不愿意與人交際，與此同時(shí)又去接觸更多的人，我們所需要做的僅僅是點(diǎn)擊一下鼠標(biāo)。
Passage 4
31. B 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。文章第一段最后一句提到“Adults with pre-existing conditions will be added in four years.”（四年之內(nèi)，有過(guò)往病史的成年人也將納入投保范圍），由此推斷答案為B。
32. A 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。由文章第二段第三句“In all, the plan aims to make health insurance available to 32 million people now without it.”（總之，該計(jì)劃目的在于為目前沒有醫(yī)療保險(xiǎn)的三千兩百萬(wàn)美國(guó)人提供保險(xiǎn)。）可知A項(xiàng)正確。
33. B 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。文章第四段第二、三句句提到“The law will also require companies with more than 50 employees to offer coverage. If not, they could face a fine of $2,000 a year for every worker.”（該法律還要求擁有超過(guò)50名雇員的公司參保。否則，他們將面臨2,000美元每人每年的罰款。），這就意味著現(xiàn)在沒有對(duì)應(yīng)的懲罰。由此可知B項(xiàng)正確。
34. A 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題。文中第五段第二句提到“That is a lack of Medicaid coverage for some drug costs for older Americans.”（這指的是醫(yī)療保障項(xiàng)目對(duì)美國(guó)老年人使用的某些藥物費(fèi)用缺少覆蓋。），由此可知A項(xiàng)正確。
35. C 文章主旨題。從文章第二段第一句“The government will help millions of people pay for insurance.”和文章最后一句“...but also help reduce the federal budget deficit.”可知奧巴馬的醫(yī)療改革將“benefit both the people and the country”。因此C項(xiàng)正確，其余各項(xiàng)文章均無(wú)提及。
參考譯文：
奧巴馬總統(tǒng)已經(jīng)簽署法律，對(duì)醫(yī)保體系進(jìn)行45年來(lái)最大的改革。這項(xiàng)計(jì)劃的許多部分需要四年時(shí)間才能全面生效，但是其中一些措施將很快生效。例如，六個(gè)月之內(nèi)，新的法律將禁止保險(xiǎn)公司拒絕為存在過(guò)往病史（pre-existing conditions）的兒童投保。四年之內(nèi)，有過(guò)往病史的成年人也將納入投保范圍。
政府將幫助數(shù)百萬(wàn)人支付保險(xiǎn)費(fèi)用，還將允許數(shù)百萬(wàn)人通過(guò)低收入人口醫(yī)療保障計(jì)劃(Medicaid program)獲得免費(fèi)覆蓋。總之，該計(jì)劃目的在于為目前沒有醫(yī)療保險(xiǎn)的三千兩百萬(wàn)美國(guó)人提供保險(xiǎn)。但非法移民將不能參加。
現(xiàn)在，預(yù)計(jì)83%合法居住在美國(guó)的65歲以下的人口被保險(xiǎn)覆蓋，該計(jì)劃期望在幾年之內(nèi)將醫(yī)保覆蓋面提升至95%。65歲以上人口由政府在1965年設(shè)立的醫(yī)療保障項(xiàng)目(Medicare)提供保險(xiǎn)覆蓋。
四年之內(nèi)，美國(guó)民眾將第一次被要求參加醫(yī)療保險(xiǎn)，否則每年都將面臨罰款。該法律還要求擁有超過(guò)50名雇員的公司參保。否則，他們將面臨2,000美元每人每年的罰款。
今年，該法律還將關(guān)閉所謂的“甜甜圈洞”。這指的是醫(yī)療保障項(xiàng)目對(duì)美國(guó)老年人使用的某些藥物費(fèi)用缺少覆蓋。奧巴馬總統(tǒng)向年長(zhǎng)市民承諾，醫(yī)療改革不會(huì)削減他們的保證利益。
這項(xiàng)長(zhǎng)達(dá)10年的計(jì)劃預(yù)計(jì)將耗資9400億美元，但是同時(shí)幫助削減了聯(lián)邦預(yù)算赤字。
Part III. Vocabulary and Structures (20 points)
36. A provided 引導(dǎo)句子時(shí)有“假定”之意。provided（常 ~ that；表?xiàng)l件）在…條件下；倘若，假若，只要 (only if)；unless 除非，如果不 (= if…not)；though雖然；盡管；until在…以前；直到…時(shí)。題干意思：如果你不介意乘坐這趟夜間火車的話，你就能夠準(zhǔn)時(shí)到達(dá)廣州趕上時(shí)裝秀。
37. D 本題考查時(shí)態(tài)。旅途中的“遇見”是過(guò)去發(fā)生的動(dòng)作，因此排除A（一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)）和C（被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)）；B選項(xiàng)（過(guò)去完成時(shí)）一般與過(guò)去式組合。因此正確答案為D。題干意思：學(xué)生們正在談?wù)撍麄冊(cè)诼猛局杏鲆姷哪吧恕?br />
38. D 本題考查There be的用法。“There being”通常表示“已經(jīng)存在”的事情。“There to be”可以用作一個(gè)動(dòng)詞的賓語(yǔ)，我們通常稱之為復(fù)合賓語(yǔ)，其意義常表示對(duì)將來(lái)的一種意愿或希望，但目前還沒“存在”。題干意思：這群運(yùn)動(dòng)員期望回國(guó)之后有更多的自由時(shí)間。
39. A 本題考查過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)的用法。本句所強(qiáng)調(diào)的是“正在”被跟蹤，因此要用過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。題干意思：被跟蹤的這個(gè)人時(shí)不時(shí)地停下來(lái)，好像是想去系鞋帶。
40. A 本題考查的是名詞性從句引導(dǎo)詞。“will be rewarded”是真正的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，前面應(yīng)當(dāng)是名詞性定語(yǔ)從句做主語(yǔ)。A選項(xiàng)“Those who”與“who it will be（單數(shù)）”相矛盾；B選項(xiàng)應(yīng)當(dāng)是“Anyone who”；D選項(xiàng)與題意不符。題干意思：雖然我們不知道這個(gè)人是誰(shuí)，但是無(wú)論誰(shuí)提前完成此項(xiàng)工作都將獲得獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。
41. D 根據(jù)題意，as soon as所引導(dǎo)的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句中，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞finish所發(fā)生的時(shí)間為“過(guò)去將來(lái)”。這里的“過(guò)去將來(lái)”要用一般過(guò)去時(shí)來(lái)表示，不用過(guò)去將來(lái)時(shí)，因而選項(xiàng)D是正確答案。as soon as所引起的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句中，用一般過(guò)去時(shí)表示“過(guò)去將來(lái)”時(shí)間的用法，類似于用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)來(lái)表示“將來(lái)”時(shí)間的用法。題干意思：最后我決定一做完手頭的工作就去拜訪我的新任總經(jīng)理。
42. C besides that此外；in that意為“因?yàn)?rdquo;；except that只可惜；除了…之外。題干意思：這兩個(gè)國(guó)家的情形相似，因?yàn)槎窘笛┖芏唷?br />
43. C while是并列連詞，意為“而，卻”，前后有對(duì)比的意味。題干意思：一個(gè)四天大的男孩竟然能夠解決如此有難度的問(wèn)題，而他們自己卻不能，對(duì)此他們很是驚訝。
44. A that可引導(dǎo)同位語(yǔ)從句，說(shuō)明被修飾名詞的內(nèi)容。題干意思：有消息稱下周很多英國(guó)航空公司職員將參加罷工。

47. A 引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語(yǔ)從句的句型主要有：so＋adj(adv)＋that從句；so＋adj＋a(an)＋n＋that從句；such＋a(an)＋adj＋n＋that從句。表示“這樣……（一個(gè)）……以至于……”。題干意思：這么大的一座房子以至于可以容納一百個(gè)人一同跳舞。
48. B I can never thank you too much.意為“我無(wú)論怎么感謝你都不為過(guò)（多）——即感激不盡。”類似的表達(dá)還有 I can’t agree more——非常贊同。題干意思：對(duì)你的幫助我表示感激不盡。若是沒有你的幫助，我不能完成我的論文。
49. B tire輪胎，使疲倦，厭煩，勞累；tired疲倦的，疲憊的，感到疲倦；tiring累人的；tiresome 令人厭煩，無(wú)聊的，吃力的。題干意思：今天早上碰到她時(shí)，她一臉疲憊，昨天肯定是工作到很晚。
50. B much as（雖然，盡管）表讓步；less than小于,決不,毫不；more than不僅僅是，超過(guò)；rather as不是標(biāo)準(zhǔn)詞組。題干意思：夏威夷不僅是個(gè)休閑天堂，同時(shí)還是個(gè)飄浪的絕佳地方。
51. B turned on打開，發(fā)動(dòng)；turned off關(guān)上，出產(chǎn)，解雇；turned down關(guān)小，調(diào)低，拒絕； turned over翻過(guò)來(lái)，翻倒；移交，交；仔細(xì)考慮。題干意思：他拒絕我所開出的條件，我簡(jiǎn)直不能相信。
52. B set eyes on是固定詞組，意為見到，望見。題干意思：這是我見過(guò)的最漂亮的景色之一。
53. A taste在這里做感官系動(dòng)詞，后面接形容詞做補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)，說(shuō)明主語(yǔ)情況，類似的系動(dòng)詞還有feel, sound, smell。題干意思：這中藥雖然嘗起來(lái)苦，但肯定是有幫助的。
54. D 本題的后半部分是主句，真正的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是switched on。Night引導(dǎo)的是從句，having fallen是現(xiàn)在分詞完成式，做狀語(yǔ)。題干意思：夜幕降臨時(shí)，在房里學(xué)習(xí)的這個(gè)女孩打開了燈，想接著讀。
55. D as directed為as they are directed的省略形式，as引導(dǎo)方式狀語(yǔ)，意為“象…”而like為介詞，不可引導(dǎo)從句。當(dāng)從句中的主語(yǔ)與主句中的主語(yǔ)一致時(shí)，從句中的主語(yǔ)和謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的一部分可以省略。題干意思：醫(yī)生們說(shuō)有百分之50之多的病人不按說(shuō)明書用藥。
56. B break down分解；take down記下，拿下，拆卸，病倒；make up彌補(bǔ)，組成，化妝，整理，捏造；bring up提出，教育，養(yǎng)育，嘔出，（船等）停下。題干意思：對(duì)于復(fù)雜問(wèn)題的解決辦法一般就是把問(wèn)題分成多個(gè)小一些，簡(jiǎn)單一些的問(wèn)題來(lái)處理。

今天的一份報(bào)道宣稱，在過(guò)去十年里，國(guó)家的經(jīng)濟(jì)已經(jīng)大大地得益于大量的移民。
根據(jù)工作基金會(huì)的報(bào)道，移民的到來(lái)已經(jīng)幫助國(guó)家避免了勞動(dòng)力和熟練工人的短缺，經(jīng)濟(jì)能夠在“穩(wěn)定發(fā)展之路”上繼續(xù)得以保持。
由于人們來(lái)到英國(guó)工作，利息和通貨膨脹率也被保持在低水平——而且這并沒有導(dǎo)致工人工資更低和失業(yè)狀況受到影響。報(bào)道宣稱，“政府對(duì)移民問(wèn)題一直感到很費(fèi)勁，不是因?yàn)檎瓶夭涣艘泼駟?wèn)題，而是因?yàn)檎茨軌騻鬟f一個(gè)基于穩(wěn)定高質(zhì)量信息且有說(shuō)服力的信息。”

這些研究與上議院最近的一份報(bào)告相沖突，上議院的報(bào)告稱，沒有證據(jù)表明移民為英國(guó)產(chǎn)生了顯著的經(jīng)濟(jì)效益。
Part Ⅴ Writing：
The problems I faced on my job
It is universally acknowledged that it is hard to survive in the battlefield of career. Numerous problems may occur even if we are well-prepared.
I still remembered the most difficult problem I encountered on my job is about how to get along with my colleagues. It seems quite easy on the surface, but at that time I tried my utmost to establish a harmonious relationship with them and I failed. First, it is hard to deal with my female colleagues. What I tell them today is what other colleagues know tomorrow. It is impossible for them to keep words. Second, I find difficulty in communicating with my supervisor. It seems he is never satisfied with my work.
I tried several ways to improve the situation. For my female colleagues, I made it a rule that I will never talk about other colleagues’ privacy with them. I never make any negative comments. Instead, I use positive words to describe other people. For my supervisor, I tried to communicate with him when he is less impatient and moody. People tend to accept others’ opinions when they are relaxed and in a happy mood. I find this method very helpful.
Now I am a senior staff in my company. When problems occur, it is no use complaining about them. My own experience is good example to show that problems can be solved successfully.
