    In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summery below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the blanks 51-5.Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.  For many years after he formed his Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein visited many universities in different cities where he gave talks about it. He had his own chauffeur who drove him to where he was to give the talk. The chauffeur sat at the back of the room while he was giving his lecture, and then drove him home.  One day, the chauffeur said to Einstein, “Professor, I have heard you give your talk so many times that I know every word of it.” “Do you?” Einstein said with a smile. “Let’s find out, shall we? You give my next talk for me. Nobody knows what I look like where we’re going. I’m just a name to them.” Just before they reached the university where Einstein was to give his talk, he changed places with his chauffeur.  The chauffeur’s memory was excellent and he was able to give Einstein’s talk exactly as Einstein gave it. He did not understand a word he was saying, but this did not seem to matter. Then, as he was leaving the university, one of the teachers who had been at the talk came up to him.  “Professor Einstein,” he said. “That was a most interesting talk. I’d be grateful if you would answer a question.” The chauffeur hurried on. “I’m sorry,” he said, “but I’m late for my next meeting.”  “I’ll walk with you,” the teacher said. “I want to talk to you about the problem.” The teacher walked along beside the chauffeur and asked him to solve a very difficult mathematical problem.  The poor chauffeur couldn’t understand the problem, let alone attempt an answer. He did not know what to say. Then he had an idea. “It’s so simple,” he said. “Even my chauffeur could answer it.”  He pointed to his car, where Einstein was standing, still wearing the chauffeur’s cap.  “This man has a maths question,” he said to Einstein. “It’s so easy I’m sure even you can answer it.”  Summary:  Albert Einstein was a famous scientist who worked out the Theory of Relativity. He used to travel around the country with his chauffeur giving (1)      on mathematics. His chauffeur knew his talk very well so Einstein asked him to give the talk at the next (2)      where they did not know him. The chauffeur did well, but afterwards a teacher came up to him and asked him a difficult (3)      .The chauffeur did not know the answer but he said, “This problem is so simple I’m sure my chauffeur knows (4)      it.” Then he pointed to Einstein still standing (5)      beside the car.

    A:tried
    B:attempted
    C:agreed
    D:decided

    答案:D
    解析:
    make up one's mind:打定主意,决心。decide:决定。例如:Susan has made up her mind that , come what may , she will stay with John.苏珊决心已下,不管发生什么,她都将跟约翰在一起。He decided not to do that.他决定不干那件事。try:设法,例如:We are all trying to improve our English.我们都在设法提高我们的英语水平。attempt:试图,例如:We attempted to quit smoking , but failed.我们试图戒烟,但没有成功。agree:同意,例如:They might not agree with her opinion.他们可能不同意她的意见。故答案为D。

    ( )us the information,we would have been ambushed.

    A.Had he not given
    B.If he did not give
    C.Should he not give
    D.Were he not to give

    答案:A
    解析:
    考查虚拟语气。根据后半句would have been可知,是与过去事实相反,所以if条件句中的谓语动词用had+done的形式,因此A项正确。当if引导的虚拟条件从句中含有had,were 或should时,如省略if,则要将had,were或should提前。此处是省略了if并将had提前,还原为if he had not given us the information。故本题选A。句意:如果不是他给了我们消息,我们就会遭到伏击。
