How to Get Prepared for a Job
As a result of the population booming in the past, the competition in job markets is getting much fiercer. As college students who are to graduate in the future, we must prepare ourselves when still on campus in order to gain an upper hand.
There are several things we college students can do to sharpen our competitive edge. First, start preparing early. We all know that it is the early bird that catches the worm. It is too late to consider our future career upon graduation. Why not plan beforehand? Second, we should attach greater importance to our personalities such as honesty, cooperation and perseverance. They are more important than appearance in landing a job although it is advantageous to have a neat look. Third, we should make a close self-examination so as to know what our weaknesses and strengths are so that we can do something about them to improve ourselves. Lastly, we can take some preliminary training for the job we’d like to have. For example, if an English major wants to work as a certificated public accountant, he’d better acquaint himself with some financial knowledge while on campus.
In a word, opportunity will only favor those with a ready mind. Just figure out what we’d like to do in the future and act accordingly.

本文從失業(yè)這個話題入手，分析了失業(yè)的利弊。并通過列舉一些失業(yè)者的經(jīng)歷，論證失業(yè)并非就是完全令人沮喪的災(zāi)難。
1. N 大意題。文章述及數(shù)人失業(yè)后給各自生活帶來了令人意想不到的好處，并未表明失業(yè)即福的觀點。
2. Y 先找到Lisa Perez這個名字。Community Involvement標(biāo)題下第一段 "...become obsessed with homemaking..." 即證明了該命題表述正確。
3. Y Community Involvement標(biāo)題下的第四段提到 "...to meet powerful and wellconnected people." 所以該陳述是正確的。
4. N Community Involvement標(biāo)題下的第三段，Perez 說"Volunteering takes the focus off of you. One thing you have that’s still valuable is your time. And, of course, you learn that there are thousands of people with a life that’s much worse than yours," 可見Perez并沒有后悔做義務(wù)工作。
5. Y 標(biāo)題Continuing Education下的第一段第二句話"This is a lot of time, especially for hard-charging high-performers who are not used to having any free time."表明了該陳述正確。
6. NG 先從文章中找到 Bellavance 這個名字，然后細讀會發(fā)現(xiàn)文章并沒有明確提及他提高自己的計算技能。
7. N 根據(jù)domestic affairs可基本確定此題信息出自標(biāo)題Family matters中的內(nèi)容，在第一段找到對應(yīng)句"In addition to pursuing training or volunteering, some displaced careerists use their time off work to attend to family matters."，由此可以斷定他們只是更多地參與到家庭事務(wù)中，絕非全權(quán)掌管家事，所以陳述不對。
8. a huge boost/increase in confidence 陳述中的人名就是關(guān)鍵信息詞，內(nèi)容屬于標(biāo)題Family matters中的事例，在最后一段第一句話提到"One of the unexpected benefits was the huge boost in confidence he gained from his role as caregiver."，所以Mr. Rappaport意外的收獲就是信心大增。
9. scriptwriting and the movie business 同樣根據(jù)人名鎖定陳述對應(yīng)的句子在標(biāo)題Discovery and Exploration的第二段"Michael Ross...recently spent his 10 months of unemployment playing guitar and exploring his lifelong interest in scriptwriting and the movie business."，直接填空即可。
10. shoring up family bonds 本題為全文"unemployment ‘blessings’"的總結(jié)，自然應(yīng)該在文章最后一段尋找相關(guān)內(nèi)容，對應(yīng)的句子是"These job seekers pursued service, continuing education and shoring up family bonds"，同樣可以直接填空。

W: Sure. Go straight for two blocks, then turn left and walk three more blocks until you get to the drugstore. It’s right across the street.
Q: How far must the man walk to get to the bank?
12. W: I’m crazy about the blue woolen sweater in the window. Could I see it, please?
M: We’re about to mark down all of our winter goods, including our jackets, suits, and woolen sweaters in several colors. Why don’t you wait until Friday?
Q: What does the man suggest that the woman do?
13. W: Did you hear that the neighborhood convenience store was held up last night?

16. M: Did you hear Eva’s presentation in the meeting last night?

Q: What does the woman imply?
17. M: You know I’m not too sure if the new salary will be high enough or if even the new position is really what I want. Besides, I like the work that I’m doing now.

Conversation One
M: Excuse me, I understand that this office helps students with housing. Is that right?
W: Are you a student in the intensive English program? May I see your ID card? Um, yes, we can certainly help you. Where are you staying now?
M: I just arrived yesterday. I’m staying at the hotel across the street.
W: Okay, please complete this form. Will you be living alone or do you have a family with you? Or, would you be interested in sharing housing?
M: Yes, I have a wife and child. They aren’t here yet, but they’ll be coming as soon as I am settled in. My daughter is 4.
W: We have two choices available. This two-bedroom is two blocks from campus, but it doesn’t have central heat and air. There is a slot in the wall for a unit air conditioner if you want one. It’s $ 500 a month. Then, for $ 650 a month, there is this one. It’s in a modern apartment complex, about 10 minutes from the university by bicycle, but it’s closer to shopping, a movie theater, and other things. And the complex has a swimming pool and laundromat(自助洗衣店).
M: Could I see them both? I’m not sure which I would want at the moment. Sure I’d love to be closer to school, but my wife and daughter would probably like the benefits of the other one.
W: Sure. We can go right now if you would like.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. Where is the man living currently?

M: Excuse me. My watch stopped running and I’m not sure what’s wrong with it.
W: Well, let me look at it.
M: OK. It’s a new watch. I’ve only had it for about a year.
W: Hmm. It seems that it just needs a new battery. They only last about a year, you know.
M: Oh, that’s a relief. I was hoping it wasn’t broken or something. In fact, last week I got some water on it and I was afraid that the water might have ruined it. How much is a new battery?
W: It’s six ninety-nine plus tax.
M: Oh dear, that seems like a lot. I thought my friend said she paid about three ninety-nine for a battery.
W: Well, she may have. But we’re a watch repair shop and we install your battery and then guarantee it for a year. If you have the watch cleaned here we guarantee it for an additional three months.
M: Well, I guess you get what you pay for. I’ll get my battery here. How long will it take to put it in?
W: Usually I can do it right away, but right now I’m way behind in my repair of a large shipment of watches. They all need to be fixed by this afternoon. Can you leave your watch here until about 5 P.M.?
M: Oh dear. I’m afraid I can’t. I need to get back and I have to work this evening. So I couldn’t pick it up by five. And I have to have it by tomorrow.
W: Well, then maybe I can just squeeze it in now. It’ll only take a few minutes. Can you wait?
M: OK. I’d really appreciate that. Sure, I’ll wait.
W: OK. Just sit down over there. I’ll have it fixed in a few minutes.

Passage One
A tiny village somewhere in Britain was badly affected by a cat. The cat was stuck in the middle of the road due to being over frightened by the speeding vehicles. A passionate truck driver stopped his truck beside the street in order to help the frightened cat. However, something out of imagination happened. His truck slipped down the road since it was not firmly locked. It crashed into four parked cars, crashed through a bush, ran alongside a river and damaged several blocks of houses. The cat bit the driver on the hand while he was carrying it, which resulted in an injury.
Here is another story about cats. A family cat rescued a nine-month old child by informing the parents who were then cooking in the house. The cat cried out loudly when it saw the baby struggling in the river beside the house. The parents said the cat would receive a good reward of a beautiful coat for its extraordinary deed.
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. What happened to the cat that affected a village?
27. Who was hurt in the first story?
28. Where did the second story about cats occur?

Passage Two
The professors of California University agreed in a seminar that, "automobiles have posed a great danger to human health". "Automobiles not only pollute the air and lead to traffic jams, but more importantly, they also make it unnecessary for people to walk, which resulted in an increasing rate of heart diseases,"said Dr. W.H. Peterson, professor of medical science. CNN reported that Dr. W.H. Peterson’s sharp criticism caused a hot debate on the campus of California University. "The debate opened a starting of human retrospection over their industrialized results. Humans had to consider the problem caused by themselves," Dr. Peterson said. "Humans restricted their concern to only the natural disasters and environmental strategies before."
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. What is the theme of this passage?
31. What is the reason for the increase of heart diseases?
32. What do people then have to handle?
Passage Three
If you are like most people, then it is more likely that you are smarter in spring than in any other season.
Mr. Wilson, a famous scientist, discussed the influence of different climates on the human mind based on research drawn from many kinds of people. Eventually, he concluded that temperature and climate have significant effects on thinking. He decided that warm weather hinders people’s creative thinking, while cold weather facilitates. It does not mean that in summer people think less, however it does mean that people tend to be least creative in summer compared with other seasons. Spring seems to contribute most to people’s thinking. Fall follows, then winter. So it seems reasonable to get a lot of rest in summer.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. What is the main idea of the passage?
34. In which temperature do people have the best thinking?
35. Which statement is true of the heard passage?
Section C
Americans learn sports as part of their education. They learn two or more ball (36)games, such as football or basketball. At high school, they choose groups of boys or girls to make (37) teams. They choose those who are best at that sport. These teams (38) compete against teams from other schools. In many schools, students learn wrestling, running, tennis, golf and swimming. They have teams for some of these sports, too.
The games between schools are often very (39) exciting. Other students, the ones not on the team, love to watch them. They let everyone know this by shouting and (40) cheering, when their team plays well.
There is a special (41) club, of girls and boys, mostly girls, who jump up and down and shout for their football team. They call themselves (42) cheerleaders, because they lead everyone in shouts and cheers. They wear clothes of a (43) special color-the color of their school’s team. The football players wear that color, too. Each school has a team color and a team name. Cheerleaders call out the team name in their cheers. (44) They practice for many hours to learn the special jumping and cheering moves.Cheerleading is almost a sport itself. Every classroom has an American flag in it. (45)From elementary to high school, students start each day by standing up and showing respect to the flag.They put their hands over their hearts and say "the Pledge of Allegiance". (46) This is a promise to the country, which was written by people who came to the US over 200 years ago.By standing and showing respect to the flag ,people think about the United States and its freedoms.
Part IVReading Comprehension (Reading in Depth)
Section A
47. E 此處應(yīng)填入E項，be voluntary to 為固定搭配,意為"自愿地做某事"，符合題意。
48. H 此處應(yīng)填入一個名詞，而desire通常和介詞for搭配，此處句子的意思為"控制我們對能源無止境的欲望以停止對環(huán)境的破壞"。
49. A 此處應(yīng)填入一個形容詞，根據(jù)上下文意思應(yīng)選A項，意即:全球氣候變暖似乎離我們太遙遠,以至于我們無需為此擔(dān)心。
50. B 此處應(yīng)填入一個名詞，根據(jù)上下文意思與computer搭配的名詞為B項。
51. F 根據(jù)上下文意思，本段均說明全球變暖這一環(huán)境變化，所以此處應(yīng)表達氣候變化之意，F(xiàn)為正確選項。
52. L 該題較為簡單，表示"全球的氣溫比上個世紀(jì)上升了1華氏"，應(yīng)能迅速找出正確答案。
53. I 全球變暖的結(jié)果令人擔(dān)心，常識告訴我們其后果之一就是冰川融化，所以ice 與melt 搭配并符合句意，I為正確選項。
54. K 與上題一樣，此處也是全球變暖的后果之一（海岸受到侵蝕），此處應(yīng)填入一個現(xiàn)在分詞，因此應(yīng)選K。
55. N 該題較為簡單，應(yīng)填入一個復(fù)數(shù)名詞，所以填入changes項。
56. D 選D項，the whole world為固定搭配，選項J是個干擾項，表示"地球正在消亡"，但是文章沒有提到，而且有點言過其實了。
Section B
Passage One
57. D 細節(jié)理解題 文章的第二段提到"What they are working belong to no assignments. They remain there because they desire to be-they can not resist the attraction of the computers."表明這些學(xué)生是由于無法抗拒電腦的誘惑而非做作業(yè)才徹夜呆在電腦前的。可見是沉迷于電腦的學(xué)生。所以選D。
58. A 細節(jié)理解題根據(jù)第一題的信息，這些學(xué)生不是主修電腦編程的的學(xué)生,而僅僅是沉迷于電腦的"黑客"。而其余的選項在文章中均有體現(xiàn)。故答案為A。
59. B 推斷題第三段提到"they might have difficulty being employed, choosing to travel from one computing room to another."既然這些學(xué)生可以自由選擇一個又一個的電腦房，那就可以推斷出大學(xué)的電腦房是對所有人開放的。
60. C 推斷題第一段的最后兩句話、第三段的最后一句話以及最后一段第一句話"Professors of computer science are nowadays shedding more light on this hacker phenomenon and are on the watch for latent hackers and more and more severe computer addictives."都表明了作者的焦急態(tài)度。
61. D 主題推斷題文章一開始就提到了沉迷于電腦的學(xué)生，然后又舉了一個電腦"黑客""廢寢忘食"的例子。最后大學(xué)教授分析了"黑客"現(xiàn)象的發(fā)生原因?？梢娮钸m當(dāng)?shù)臉?biāo)題應(yīng)該是D。
Passage Two
62. A 句意理解題文章第一句的意思是"沒有人比John Moon更懂得E-mail廢話成堆的特點。"所以選A項（John Moon清楚地知道E-mail是在浪費資源）。
63. D 細節(jié)理解題 第四段第二句表示"Talk Labs公司管理的郵件中有20％是不速之客......（About 20% of the Email Talk Labs manages is uninvited ...）"由此可見，公司的工作重點并不是處理垃圾郵件。此外，其他三項均可在第一段和第二段中找到對應(yīng)點，所以選D。
64. D 推斷題代詞that的指代對象應(yīng)該從前一句中尋找。前一句指出"......為了存儲和管理上述信息，這些公司僅今年一年就可能要在系統(tǒng)建設(shè)上增加100%到150%的費用。（...companies could finally pay 100% to 150% more simply this year on systems in the store and management of those messages.）"選項D（公司投入100%-150%的費用在個人信息儲存上）與此內(nèi)容相符，所以選D。
65. B 細節(jié)理解題根據(jù)第三段第二句，選項B中的not more than 50%表示低于50%，而文中提到電子郵件增加70%到90%。所以選B。
66. A 主題推斷題文章在第一句中就說"...that forbidding exchanging media called Email..."，說明了作者對E-mail的態(tài)度是否定的，后面又分析E-mail的其他缺點，如浪費資源和不安全等。所以，選項A中的Monster（妖怪）比較形象地表達了作者的看法。
Part V Cloze
67. C 本句的意思是："成功或失敗在很大程度上取決于你是否能揚長避短。"improvement改進；victory勝利；achievement成果，成就。這三個詞都不合題意，只有C）failure"失敗"最合適。
68. A to a great extent是固定短語，意思是"很大程度上"，符合題意。類似的說法還有：to a large extent,to some extent, to an extent。the, some, certain都不能與great extent搭配。
69. B on與前面的rely構(gòu)成本句謂語。rely on為固定搭配，意思是"依賴于，取決于"。
70. B 本句為倒裝句，表示強調(diào)，正常語序為：The attitude is the most significance. 考察of與名詞連用，表示具有某種性質(zhì)、狀態(tài)，作表語。這里意思是"非常重要"。
71. A 根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)判斷a person后應(yīng)當(dāng)是定語從句，表示"開始工作的那個人"。
72. C 本句的意思是"如果一個剛剛開始工作的人就深信自己不會喜歡或肯定不適應(yīng)這項工作，那么他就暴露了只會阻礙他成功的缺點。"or后面省略了主語he，與sure構(gòu)成分句的主謂，表示某人肯定某事。其它三個選項的意思是ensure"保證"；certain"肯定的(只能用于it作主語的句子里)"；surely"確實地"。
73. D 固定搭配be firm in one’s mind,意思是"堅信"。其它選項都不符合題意和搭配習(xí)慣。
74. C capable of doing sth.是固定搭配，意為"能夠干什么"。
75. D attempt用做名詞，后接介詞at，意為"試圖，努力"；如果后面接介詞on，則表示攻擊的意思。其他兩項都不能與attempt搭配。
76. C 本句的意思是"具有某一工作的必要技能是一個優(yōu)勢"。此處應(yīng)填句子的主語，故選動名詞having。
77. D 本句主語是A book-keeper or a carpenter。根據(jù)主謂一致原則，其謂語應(yīng)當(dāng)用單數(shù)is，而不是復(fù)數(shù)are。
78. D on與前面的draw搭配，表示"利用"。做不定式help的補語。其它選項不能與draw搭配。

80. B 固定短語take stock of，意為"對......估價，對......作出判斷"。
81. A 本句的意思是："隨著更深入地閱讀......"，從語法角度，此處應(yīng)填關(guān)聯(lián)詞。四個選項中，只有as能用做關(guān)聯(lián)詞，表示過程。
82 D 根據(jù)語法和語義，此處應(yīng)填動詞的將來進行時的主動形式，意思是"隨著書中內(nèi)容的進一步深入，我們將處理諸如加強學(xué)習(xí)技能等的具體問題。"
83. C 根據(jù)上下文，這里應(yīng)當(dāng)指"學(xué)習(xí)技能"，動名詞可用作名詞修飾語，與名詞構(gòu)成名詞短語，所以選C learning
84. B 固定短語to begin with，意為"首先，第一"，常用做插入語。
85. A 謂語動詞pause后，look into又是動詞原形短語，所以這里應(yīng)當(dāng)選to，構(gòu)成動詞不定式，作目的狀語。其余選項都是介詞，不合題意。
86. C 本句對全文進行總結(jié)概括，與文章的開頭Of the most significance is the attitude相呼應(yīng)，故選attitude。

M: Excuse me, I understand that this office helps students with housing. Is that right?
W: Are you a student in the intensive English program? May I see your ID card? Um, yes, we can certainly help you. Where are you staying now?
M: I just arrived yesterday. I’m staying at the hotel across the street.
W: Okay, please complete this form. Will you be living alone or do you have a family with you? Or, would you be interested in sharing housing?
M: Yes, I have a wife and child. They aren’t here yet, but they’ll be coming as soon as I am settled in. My daughter is 4.
W: We have two choices available. This two-bedroom is two blocks from campus, but it doesn’t have central heat and air. There is a slot in the wall for a unit air conditioner if you want one. It’s $ 500 a month. Then, for $ 650 a month, there is this one. It’s in a modern apartment complex, about 10 minutes from the university by bicycle, but it’s closer to shopping, a movie theater, and other things. And the complex has a swimming pool and laundromat(自助洗衣店).
M: Could I see them both? I’m not sure which I would want at the moment. Sure I’d love to be closer to school, but my wife and daughter would probably like the benefits of the other one.
W: Sure. We can go right now if you would like.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. Where is the man living currently?
20. What size apartment does the man need?
21. What does the man think is the most important difference between the two apartments the woman discusses?
22. What is the biggest drawback of the less expensive apartment according to the woman?
Conversation Two
M: Excuse me. My watch stopped running and I’m not sure what’s wrong with it.
W: Well, let me look at it.
M: OK. It’s a new watch. I’ve only had it for about a year.
W: Hmm. It seems that it just needs a new battery. They only last about a year, you know.
M: Oh, that’s a relief. I was hoping it wasn’t broken or something. In fact, last week I got some water on it and I was afraid that the water might have ruined it. How much is a new battery?
W: It’s six ninety-nine plus tax.
M: Oh dear, that seems like a lot. I thought my friend said she paid about three ninety-nine for a battery.
W: Well, she may have. But we’re a watch repair shop and we install your battery and then guarantee it for a year. If you have the watch cleaned here we guarantee it for an additional three months.
M: Well, I guess you get what you pay for. I’ll get my battery here. How long will it take to put it in?
W: Usually I can do it right away, but right now I’m way behind in my repair of a large shipment of watches. They all need to be fixed by this afternoon. Can you leave your watch here until about 5 P.M.?
M: Oh dear. I’m afraid I can’t. I need to get back and I have to work this evening. So I couldn’t pick it up by five. And I have to have it by tomorrow.
W: Well, then maybe I can just squeeze it in now. It’ll only take a few minutes. Can you wait?
M: OK. I’d really appreciate that. Sure, I’ll wait.
W: OK. Just sit down over there. I’ll have it fixed in a few minutes.

Passage One
A tiny village somewhere in Britain was badly affected by a cat. The cat was stuck in the middle of the road due to being over frightened by the speeding vehicles. A passionate truck driver stopped his truck beside the street in order to help the frightened cat. However, something out of imagination happened. His truck slipped down the road since it was not firmly locked. It crashed into four parked cars, crashed through a bush, ran alongside a river and damaged several blocks of houses. The cat bit the driver on the hand while he was carrying it, which resulted in an injury.
Here is another story about cats. A family cat rescued a nine-month old child by informing the parents who were then cooking in the house. The cat cried out loudly when it saw the baby struggling in the river beside the house. The parents said the cat would receive a good reward of a beautiful coat for its extraordinary deed.
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. What happened to the cat that affected a village?
27. Who was hurt in the first story?
28. Where did the second story about cats occur?
29. What would the parents give to cat as a reward in the second story?
Passage Two
The professors of California University agreed in a seminar that, "automobiles have posed a great danger to human health". "Automobiles not only pollute the air and lead to traffic jams, but more importantly, they also make it unnecessary for people to walk, which resulted in an increasing rate of heart diseases,"said Dr. W.H. Peterson, professor of medical science. CNN reported that Dr. W.H. Peterson’s sharp criticism caused a hot debate on the campus of California University. "The debate opened a starting of human retrospection over their industrialized results. Humans had to consider the problem caused by themselves," Dr. Peterson said. "Humans restricted their concern to only the natural disasters and environmental strategies before."
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. What is the theme of this passage?
31. What is the reason for the increase of heart diseases?
32. What do people then have to handle?
Passage Three
If you are like most people, then it is more likely that you are smarter in spring than in any other season.
Mr. Wilson, a famous scientist, discussed the influence of different climates on the human mind based on research drawn from many kinds of people. Eventually, he concluded that temperature and climate have significant effects on thinking. He decided that warm weather hinders people’s creative thinking, while cold weather facilitates. It does not mean that in summer people think less, however it does mean that people tend to be least creative in summer compared with other seasons. Spring seems to contribute most to people’s thinking. Fall follows, then winter. So it seems reasonable to get a lot of rest in summer.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. What is the main idea of the passage?
34. In which temperature do people have the best thinking?
35. Which statement is true of the heard passage?
Section C
Americans learn sports as part of their education. They learn two or more ball (36)games, such as football or basketball. At high school, they choose groups of boys or girls to make (37) teams. They choose those who are best at that sport. These teams (38) compete against teams from other schools. In many schools, students learn wrestling, running, tennis, golf and swimming. They have teams for some of these sports, too.
The games between schools are often very (39) exciting. Other students, the ones not on the team, love to watch them. They let everyone know this by shouting and (40) cheering, when their team plays well.
There is a special (41) club, of girls and boys, mostly girls, who jump up and down and shout for their football team. They call themselves (42) cheerleaders, because they lead everyone in shouts and cheers. They wear clothes of a (43) special color-the color of their school’s team. The football players wear that color, too. Each school has a team color and a team name. Cheerleaders call out the team name in their cheers. (44) They practice for many hours to learn the special jumping and cheering moves.Cheerleading is almost a sport itself. Every classroom has an American flag in it. (45)From elementary to high school, students start each day by standing up and showing respect to the flag.They put their hands over their hearts and say "the Pledge of Allegiance". (46) This is a promise to the country, which was written by people who came to the US over 200 years ago.By standing and showing respect to the flag ,people think about the United States and its freedoms.
Part IVReading Comprehension (Reading in Depth)
Section A
47. E 此處應(yīng)填入E項，be voluntary to 為固定搭配,意為"自愿地做某事"，符合題意。
48. H 此處應(yīng)填入一個名詞，而desire通常和介詞for搭配，此處句子的意思為"控制我們對能源無止境的欲望以停止對環(huán)境的破壞"。
49. A 此處應(yīng)填入一個形容詞，根據(jù)上下文意思應(yīng)選A項，意即:全球氣候變暖似乎離我們太遙遠,以至于我們無需為此擔(dān)心。
50. B 此處應(yīng)填入一個名詞，根據(jù)上下文意思與computer搭配的名詞為B項。
51. F 根據(jù)上下文意思，本段均說明全球變暖這一環(huán)境變化，所以此處應(yīng)表達氣候變化之意，F(xiàn)為正確選項。
52. L 該題較為簡單，表示"全球的氣溫比上個世紀(jì)上升了1華氏"，應(yīng)能迅速找出正確答案。
53. I 全球變暖的結(jié)果令人擔(dān)心，常識告訴我們其后果之一就是冰川融化，所以ice 與melt 搭配并符合句意，I為正確選項。
54. K 與上題一樣，此處也是全球變暖的后果之一（海岸受到侵蝕），此處應(yīng)填入一個現(xiàn)在分詞，因此應(yīng)選K。
55. N 該題較為簡單，應(yīng)填入一個復(fù)數(shù)名詞，所以填入changes項。
56. D 選D項，the whole world為固定搭配，選項J是個干擾項，表示"地球正在消亡"，但是文章沒有提到，而且有點言過其實了。
Section B
Passage One
57. D 細節(jié)理解題 文章的第二段提到"What they are working belong to no assignments. They remain there because they desire to be-they can not resist the attraction of the computers."表明這些學(xué)生是由于無法抗拒電腦的誘惑而非做作業(yè)才徹夜呆在電腦前的。可見是沉迷于電腦的學(xué)生。所以選D。
58. A 細節(jié)理解題根據(jù)第一題的信息，這些學(xué)生不是主修電腦編程的的學(xué)生,而僅僅是沉迷于電腦的"黑客"。而其余的選項在文章中均有體現(xiàn)。故答案為A。
59. B 推斷題第三段提到"they might have difficulty being employed, choosing to travel from one computing room to another."既然這些學(xué)生可以自由選擇一個又一個的電腦房，那就可以推斷出大學(xué)的電腦房是對所有人開放的。
60. C 推斷題第一段的最后兩句話、第三段的最后一句話以及最后一段第一句話"Professors of computer science are nowadays shedding more light on this hacker phenomenon and are on the watch for latent hackers and more and more severe computer addictives."都表明了作者的焦急態(tài)度。
61. D 主題推斷題文章一開始就提到了沉迷于電腦的學(xué)生，然后又舉了一個電腦"黑客""廢寢忘食"的例子。最后大學(xué)教授分析了"黑客"現(xiàn)象的發(fā)生原因?？梢娮钸m當(dāng)?shù)臉?biāo)題應(yīng)該是D。
Passage Two
62. A 句意理解題文章第一句的意思是"沒有人比John Moon更懂得E-mail廢話成堆的特點。"所以選A項（John Moon清楚地知道E-mail是在浪費資源）。
63. D 細節(jié)理解題 第四段第二句表示"Talk Labs公司管理的郵件中有20％是不速之客......（About 20% of the Email Talk Labs manages is uninvited ...）"由此可見，公司的工作重點并不是處理垃圾郵件。此外，其他三項均可在第一段和第二段中找到對應(yīng)點，所以選D。
64. D 推斷題代詞that的指代對象應(yīng)該從前一句中尋找。前一句指出"......為了存儲和管理上述信息，這些公司僅今年一年就可能要在系統(tǒng)建設(shè)上增加100%到150%的費用。（...companies could finally pay 100% to 150% more simply this year on systems in the store and management of those messages.）"選項D（公司投入100%-150%的費用在個人信息儲存上）與此內(nèi)容相符，所以選D。
65. B 細節(jié)理解題根據(jù)第三段第二句，選項B中的not more than 50%表示低于50%，而文中提到電子郵件增加70%到90%。所以選B。
66. A 主題推斷題文章在第一句中就說"...that forbidding exchanging media called Email..."，說明了作者對E-mail的態(tài)度是否定的，后面又分析E-mail的其他缺點，如浪費資源和不安全等。所以，選項A中的Monster（妖怪）比較形象地表達了作者的看法。
Part V Cloze
67. C 本句的意思是："成功或失敗在很大程度上取決于你是否能揚長避短。"improvement改進；victory勝利；achievement成果，成就。這三個詞都不合題意，只有C）failure"失敗"最合適。

69. B on與前面的rely構(gòu)成本句謂語。rely on為固定搭配，意思是"依賴于，取決于"。
70. B 本句為倒裝句，表示強調(diào)，正常語序為：The attitude is the most significance. 考察of與名詞連用，表示具有某種性質(zhì)、狀態(tài)，作表語。這里意思是"非常重要"。
71. A 根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)判斷a person后應(yīng)當(dāng)是定語從句，表示"開始工作的那個人"。
72. C 本句的意思是"如果一個剛剛開始工作的人就深信自己不會喜歡或肯定不適應(yīng)這項工作，那么他就暴露了只會阻礙他成功的缺點。"or后面省略了主語he，與sure構(gòu)成分句的主謂，表示某人肯定某事。其它三個選項的意思是ensure"保證"；certain"肯定的(只能用于it作主語的句子里)"；surely"確實地"。
73. D 固定搭配be firm in one’s mind,意思是"堅信"。其它選項都不符合題意和搭配習(xí)慣。

77. D 本句主語是A book-keeper or a carpenter。根據(jù)主謂一致原則，其謂語應(yīng)當(dāng)用單數(shù)is，而不是復(fù)數(shù)are。
78. D on與前面的draw搭配，表示"利用"。做不定式help的補語。其它選項不能與draw搭配。

81. A 本句的意思是："隨著更深入地閱讀......"，從語法角度，此處應(yīng)填關(guān)聯(lián)詞。四個選項中，只有as能用做關(guān)聯(lián)詞，表示過程。
82 D 根據(jù)語法和語義，此處應(yīng)填動詞的將來進行時的主動形式，意思是"隨著書中內(nèi)容的進一步深入，我們將處理諸如加強學(xué)習(xí)技能等的具體問題。"
83. C 根據(jù)上下文，這里應(yīng)當(dāng)指"學(xué)習(xí)技能"，動名詞可用作名詞修飾語，與名詞構(gòu)成名詞短語，所以選C learning
84. B 固定短語to begin with，意為"首先，第一"，常用做插入語。
85. A 謂語動詞pause后，look into又是動詞原形短語，所以這里應(yīng)當(dāng)選to，構(gòu)成動詞不定式，作目的狀語。其余選項都是介詞，不合題意。
86. C 本句對全文進行總結(jié)概括，與文章的開頭Of the most significance is the attitude相呼應(yīng)，故選attitude。
