第3题：
He played on the ________ for two hours and when he returned he found half his goods ________ stolen.A.sands...was
B.sand...were
C.sand...was
D.sands...were
正确答案：D
解析：本题考查主谓一致的用法。本句是由 and 连接的两个分句，在第二个分句中，主句是 "he found half his goods..." 。一般来说，"goods”应该视为复数，所以构成被动语态(一般过去时)的助动词相应地应该用 were。另外，英文中的“沙滩”也应该用复数形式：the sands。句意：“他在沙滩上玩了两个小时，回来才发现一半商品都被偷了。”

第4题：
How often one hears children wishing they were grown up，and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains，and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.
Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities. If a child has good parents，he is well fed，looked after and loved. It is unlikely that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition，life is always presenting new things to the child-things that have lost their，interest for older people because they are too well known. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain，or in the snow. His first，visit to the seaside is a marvelous adventure. But a child has his pains：he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are；he is continually being told what to do and what not to do. Therefore，a child is not happy as he wishes to be.
When the young man starts to earn his own living，he becomes free from the discipline of school and parents；but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities. With no one to pay for his food，his clothes，or his room，he has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child，he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents，he may get himself into trouble. If，however，he works hard，goes by the law and has good health，he may feel satisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up for himself his own position in society.
Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be；but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life；they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them；and，perhaps best of all，they can，if their life has been a useful one，feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest，leaving everything to others.
The happiest people should be those who______.
A．face up to difficulties in life
B．hope to be young again
C．enjoy life in different ages
D．wish to be grown up
正确答案：C
解析：见第一段，每一个年龄段有快乐和烦恼，最快乐的人不会浪费他的时间去后悔，而是享受每个午龄段所带给他的。 -
第5题：
If he had worked harder at his lessons, he___________able to pass the college entrance examination now.A.will be

第6题：
The translator must have an excellent,up-to-date knowledge of his 11 languages, full facility in the handlingof his target language, which will be his mother tongue or language of habitualuse, and knowledge and understanding of the 12 subject-matter in his field ofspecialization. This is, as it were, his professional equipment. In addition tothis, it is desirable that he should have an 13 mind, wide interests, a good memory and the ability to grasp quicklythe basic principles of new developments. He should be willing to work on hisown, often at high speeds, but should be humble enough to 14 othersshould his own knowledge not always prove adequate to the task in hand. He shouldbe able to type fairly quickly and accurately and, if he is working mainly forpublication, should have more than a nodding 15 with printing techniques andproof-reading. If he is working basically as an information translator, let ussay, for an industrial firm, he should have the flexibility of mind to enablehim to 16 rapidly from one sourcelanguage to another, as well as from one subject-matter to another, since thisability is frequently required of him in such work. Bearing in mind the natureof the translator′s work, i.e. the processing of the written word, it is,strictly speaking, 17 that he should be able to speak the languages heis dealing with. If he does speak them, it is an 18 rather than a hindrance, but this skillis in many ways a luxury that he can do away with. It is, however, desirablethat he should have an approximate idea about the pronunciation of his sourcelanguages even if this is restricted to 19 how proper names and placenames are pronounced. The same applies to an ability to write his sourcelanguages. If he can, well and good; if he cannot, it does not matter. Thereare many other skills and 20 that are desirable in a translator.
第11题选A.target
B.source
C.origin
D.pidgin答案：B解析：考查名词辨析和上下文理解。target“目标”，source“来源”，origin“起源”，pidgin“混杂语式，洋泾浜语”。根据后文提到的target language(目标语言)可知此处要填一个与之相对的词，且后文中出现的mother tongue or language也提示了此处填入source language(语言)最为恰当，故选B。 -

第10题：
问答题Practice 2 This portrait-gallery of old Etonians is very select: preeminent distinction of birth or merit may win you a place there, or again official connection with the school, which rightly loves to keep up an unbroken panorama of its teachers, and to vivify its annals with the faces and figures of the personalities who carried on its traditions. But how came Dolben there? It was because he was a poet, — that I knew; — and yet his poems were not known; they were jealously guarded by his family and a few friends: indeed such of his poems as could have come to the eyes of the authorities who sanctioned this memorial would not justify it. There was another reason; and the portrait bears its own credentials; for though you might not perhaps divine the poet in it, you can see the saint, the soul rapt in contemplation, the habit of stainless life, of devotion, of enthusiasm for high ideals. Such a being must have stood out conspicuously among his fellows; the facts of his life would have been the ground of the faith in his genius; and when his early death endeared and sanctified his memory, loving grief would generously grant him the laurels which he had never worn. (Robert Bridges: A School Portrait)正确答案： 【参考译文】
这个为老伊顿校友建立的肖像馆在决定人选时是很慎重的:出身显赫或表现突出有可能得到一个位置,或者,与校方有正式的联系,而校方也希望完整地再现教师队伍的全景,使保持学校传统的名人的形象构成的校史有生气,学校这样做是完全正确的。但是,多尔宾是怎么来到这里的呢?因为他是一个诗人——这我很清楚;然而,他的诗并不为人们所知;他的诗是由他的家人和几个朋友精心保管着;要说只凭学校当局见到的几首诗就同意以这种方式纪念他,理由不太充足。还有另外一个理由:他的肖像本身就可以解释这个问题;虽然你也许不能从肖像里看出他是诗人,但你可以看出他是一个圣人,一个陷入沉思之中的灵魂,一个执着而热烈地追求无瑕生活和崇高理想的人。这样的人在他的同事当中一定是一个出众的人;他的生活经历足以使我们相信他是一个天才;当他的英年早逝使他变得越发亲切而神圣的时候;人们出于对他的爱而产生的悲哀则赋予了他生前未曾享受过的诗人的桂冠。 解析： 暂无解析 -

A:intercsted
B:keen
C:enthusiastic
D:happy答案：B解析：根据句意，“每次骨折似乎总是发生在做运动时”，应当选用动词do。practise “练习”，后面应跟某一项具体的训练，而不是sport，所以正确答案为C。
play the part of...为固定搭配，意为“扮演一个……的角色”，其他三项均不合适。
联系上下文，根据句意，“在影片制作过程中”，所以应当用during。
根据句意，“Harrelson在影片制作过程中不断地抱怨……”，而且后面的动词complain用的是ing形式，因此动词keep“连续，不断”最为恰当。continue后加动词ing 形式一般表示在停顿后重新开始、继续，carry一般后面跟介词on，表示“进行某项事务”,insist 表示“坚决主张”，不合句意，所以选A。
联系上下文，因为是影片中的打斗场景，所以这里scenes是正确答案。
be keen on为固定搭配，表示“对……感兴趣，对……热衷”,interest后面配介词in, enthusiastic后面配介词of。
联系上下文，作者要表达的是“最终他还是被他的搭档说服了”，副词eventu-ally放在动词persuade之前，lastly表示“最后一点，最后”,“at the end”一般放在段落的最后，表示“最后”。
根据句意，“当他意识到……是全心全意投意入进来时，他开始后悔自己要打斗的决定”，显然是对手非常认真地对待这场打斗，所以C项opponent是正确答案。
so...that…固定搭配，意为“太……以至于”，根据句意，“ Harrelson如此重重地打在Banderas的脸上，以至于居然打破了 Banderas的鼻子”，其他选项都不适合。
固定搭配take a risk，表示“冒险”。
联系上下文，根据句意，“他记起在他的故乡马拉加进行的一场足球比赛”, 是因为鼻子骨折这件事促使他想起了故乡的那次比赛，remind表示“提醒”，符合句意。remember表示“自然想起，记起”不合句意。
根据句意和后面的介词of，显然，“他一直梦想成为一名足球明星”,dream 是正确答案。pretend“假装”，后面跟介词to，不合句意；look forward表示“向往”，后面跟介词 to，不合句意。
固定搭配take up sth.，表示“开始从事某事”，根据句意，作者要表达的是 “我决定开始演戏”，因此A项up是正确答案。
联系上下文，Banderas显然把它看成是另外一种比赛，所以只有D项an-other符合句意。
词组football pitch，表示“足球场”。前面由介词on引导，后面一定是场地，也就是足球场，而不是match“比赛”。court表示“网球场”,course表示“跑道”，均不符合句意。 -

单选题概括大意与完成句子： The Storyteller 1.Steven Spielberg has always had one goal: to tell as many great stories to as many people as will listen．And that’s what he has always been about．The son of a computer scientist and a pianist, Spielberg spent his early childhood in New Jersey and, later, Arizona．From the very beginning, his fertile imagination filled his young mind with images that would later inspire his filmmaking． 2.Even decades later, Spielberg says he has clear memories of his earliest years, which are the origins of some of his biggest hits．He believes that E．T．is the result of the difficult years leading up to his parent’s 1966 divorce, “It is really about a young boy who was in search of some stability in his life．”“He was scared of just about everything,” recalls his mother, Leah Adler．“When trees brushed against the house, he would head into my bed．And that’s just the kind of scary stuff he would put in films like Poltergeist．” 3.Spielberg was 11 when he first got his hands on his dad’s movie camera and began shooting short flicks about flying saucers and World War ΙΙ battles．Spielberg’s talent for scary storytelling enabled him to make friends．On Boy Scout camping trips, when night fell, Spielberg became the center of attention．“Steven would start telling his ghost stories,” says Richard Y．Hoffman Jr．, leader of Troop 294, “and everyone would suddenly get quiet so that they could all hear it．” 4.Spielberg moved to California with his father and went to high school there, but his grades were so bad that he barely graduated．Both UCLA and USC film schools rejected him, so he entered California State University at Long Beach because it was close to Hollywood．Spielberg was determined to make movies, and he managed to get an unpaid, non-credit internship（实习）in Hollywood．Soon he was given a contract, and he dropped out of college．He never looked back． 5.Now, many years later, Spielberg is still telling stories with as much passion as the kid in the tent．Ask him where he gets his ideas, Spielberg shrugs．“The process for me is mostly intuitive (凭直觉的),” he says．“There are films that I feel I need to make, for a variety of reasons, for personal reasons, for reasons that I want to have fun, that the subject matter is cool, that I think my kids will like it．And sometimes I just think that it will make a lot of money, like the sequel(续集) to Jurassic Park．” Spielberg is very good at _________.Amaking children laugh
Balmost everything
Ca lot of money
Dhis childhood memories
Etelling scary stories
Fa number of reasons
正确答案： A解析： 译文：斯皮尔伯格非常善于________。
