(A)
My color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.
Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.
When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.
21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?
22. Which of the following an best replace the phrase “signed off” in paragraph 1?
23. How did the author finally get this TV set working again?
24. How does the author sound when telling the story?
正确答案

be fooled into doing sth.表示“被愚弄去做某事”;less than,表示“比···少,少于”。因为我看到报纸上的价格比我买的时候的价格低,少于我感觉自己被骗了。选C。

Your house may have an effect on your figure. experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. you can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情) when they’re in poorly lit places – and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
Don’t forget the clock – or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turning on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plants can easily makes us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
25. The text is especially helpful for those who care about ____.
26. A home environment in blue can help people ____.
27. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?
28.What can be a suitable title for the text?

(C)
More students than ever before are taking a gap year(间隔年) before going to university. It used to be the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated(起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.
This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by the University and College Admissions Service (UCAS).
That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.
But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students (NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship – young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to£15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree. NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacating periods,” he said.
29. What do we learn about the gap year from the text?
30. According to Tony Higgins. students taking a gap year ____.
31. How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon?
32.What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics?

how

One day , little Tony went to a shopping center with his parent. It was very crowded. Tony saw a toy on a shop window. He liked it so very much that he quickly walked into the shop. After looks at the toy for some time, he turned around and found where his parents were missing. Tony was scared and begun to cry. A woman saw him drying and telling him to wait outside a shop. Five minutes later, Tony saw parents. Mom said,“How nice to see you again! Dad and I were terrible worried. ” Tony promised her that this would never happen again.
正确答案
parent改为parents;on改为in;very去掉;looks改为looking,where改为that 或者去掉 where,begun改为began,telling改为told,a改为the,saw后加his,terrible改为terribly
解析
1.看下文可知,是父母两个,所以用parents。2. 介词in表示“在···里面”,on表示“在···上”。根据句意可知应该用in。3. 这里是“如此喜欢以至于”的意思,应该是:like so much that...。4. after之后跟从句或v-ing形式,故looks改为looking。5. found后面的宾语从句是陈述句,故where改为that或者去掉where。6. and前后的谓语动词时态要一致,即and后面的谓语动词要与was的时态保持一致,故begun改为began。7. and前后的谓语动词时态要一致,see和tell是并列谓语,故telling改为told。8. a表示泛指,the表示特指,这里指的是上文提到过的那个商店,因此为特指。9. 由上下文可知,他看到的是他的父母,故 saw后加his。10. 应用副词修饰形容词worried。
考查方向
解题思路
由下文重复出现的“his parents”可知,他和父母(两人)去购物中心,故要将parent改为parents,Tony走进商店,说明玩具在橱窗里面,用in,。
易错点
没有区分单复数的用法,介词误用,副词误用,非谓语掌握不牢,没有掌握名词性从句的用法。

Dear Lucy,
I’d like to invite you to join us for a visit to the nearby nursing home next Saturday for the Double Ninth Festival. It is the day for the elderly in our culture. We’ll go and make dumplings and cakes with the elderly people there. We’ll also spend some fun time together singing, dancing and playing games, which we hope will make them happy. We should be back around 4 o’clock in the afternoon. If you are able to come with us, please let us know and we’ll wait for you at the gate at 9 in the morning.
Looking forward to your reply.

解题思路
1.这是封邮件。主要人称为第一人称,基本时态以一般将来时为主。2.本篇书面表达属于英文书信,根据提示信息说明邀请Lucy去参加的活动和时间等。写作时注意以下几点:(1)仔细阅读有关提示,弄清试题提供的所有信息,明确三个要点:邀请、时间、具体活动。(2)提纲是文章的总体框架,要在提纲的范围内进行分析、构思和想象。要依据提示情景或词语,按照一定逻辑关系来写。本文写作时可以按照要点所给的顺序写。3.注意使用高级词汇和句式,以增加文章的亮点。参考词汇和短语:I’d like to,invite you to join us ,for a visit to,be back around,be able to,come with us,wait for等可以让文章成为一个整体,更为流畅。with,if等连词以及which引导的定语从句和句式spend time doing等使句式多样、文章更加连贯。
易错点
没有注意到题目的要求,这是一封邮件,邮件的格式已基本给出。
