Bohavesb./sth.done表示被动关系，“让某人被怎样”。这里是被捕，所以选B。此外，havesb.dosth让某人去做某事；havesb.doingsth表示“容忍某人做某事，或者让某人一直做这件事情”，与时间相关。3. D0句意：是直到接近一个月后我才收到了经理的回复。去掉强调句型的itwas和that后，句子是完整的，即：Ididn,treceivethemanager,sreplyuntilnearlyamonthlater.<,对含有notUntil的句型进行强调时，应该采用“Itwasnotuntil.that.”句型。4. Ao句意：她不是那样的人，她绝不会把孩子丢下不管。由句意可知选COUklnk5. Bo句意：这位老太太最近几天生活在极度的悲哀中，因为她唯一的儿子被控告犯有蓄意谋杀罪。blame指责，控告，beblamedfor"因某事责备某人"；Charge控告，bechargedwith“被指控"；abuse虐待，beabusedby被滥用；CritiCiZe批评，批判，becriticizedby被某人批评,becriticizedfor因而被批评。6. Ao句意:在我看来，政府应该做点事情来帮助改善这一局面。“couldhelptoimprovethesituation"是定语从句部分，该部分缺少主语，所以选关系代词；而先行词是代词something,因此用that不用which该题的关键是把插入语inmyopinion去掉，然后理解句子。7. Bo句意：在加入国防部前，Panetta先生从2009年2月到2011年6月做CIA的主任。由句意可知，Panetta先生现在已经不是ClA的主任，所以做ClA的主任与现在无关：故选一般过去时。8. Co句意：煤矿爆炸已经过去了十天，但是寻找失踪者的努力正在进行。由句意可知，应该用现在进行时的被动语态。9. BoWeallknow是主语从句部分,其中know缺宾语,所以填What作宾语;theoldgentlemanstillworkseveryday是表语从句部分，该部分结构完整，句意完整，所以填只起连接作用的thatoforwhomlifewashardinthepast是非限制性定语从句，修饰theoldgentleman。10. Ao句意：据我所知，他总是读报纸。asfarasIcanremember据我所知。11. CoWoUldrather后接从句时，从句的谓语动词采用一般过去时表示和现在或将来的事实相反；从句的谓语动词也可采用过去完成时表示和过去的事实相反。句意：一南北朝鲜的冲突需要对话来解决。一是啊。我希望联合国尽快采取措施。由句意可知，这是对现在或将来的虚拟，所以用一般过去时。12. Bo句意：怀特校长已在该校工作了20年，把自己所有的精力都投入到了教学、研究和学校的健康运转上了。由句意可知，怀特校长和devote构成逻辑上的主谓关系，所以选devotingo13. Ao倍数的表示法可用“倍数+as+原级+as”构成。14. Do第一空whoexposedtosecond-handsmokinginpublicplaces是定语从句部分，其中who指代先行词people.所以第一空用are；第二空ThenumberofpeopleUPto740millioninChina中“thenumberof+名词”作主语,所以用单数。因此D项正确。15. Bo句意：因为空气这么差，我认为如果还有学生的话，也不会超过五名。ifany如果有的话；ifpossible如果可能的话；ifever如果曾经的话；ifso如果这样的话。二、完形填空本文主要围绕着母亲的教导“Everythinghappensforthebest.”而展开故事，告诉我们不要畏惧困难和挫折！要坚持下去！一切都会为了更美好的未来而发生的。1. Aofacedisappointment意为“面对失望D选项met后要加With,meetwithsth.意为“遇到某事”、“经历某事”。2. D。“一切都会好的。如果你坚持下去,总有一天会有好事发生。”3. Bo该句句意是“你会认识到,如果没有以前的挫折就不会有现在的一切。”因此，这里是指“以前的挫折（失望）”。4. “母亲是对的,发现这个是在1932年,我刚从大学毕业。"as引导定语从句，代表前面的整个句子。5. C.“我已决定试着在电台找个事儿做,然后争取做体育节目的播音员。"tryfor争取，谋求，申请。6. Bo从下文的信息“Howcanafellowgettobeasportannouncerifhecan,tgetajobinaradioStalion?"可确定答案。74“我搭便车到了芝加哥,挨个电台地敲门推销自己”。knockon敲门。8. Do“但每次都被拒绝了"。turndown拒绝。9. Co一位好心的女士告诉我,大的广播电台是不会冒险雇用没经验的inexperienced新手的。10. Cgivesb.achance意为“给某人一个机会”。那位女士只能说"给一个工作机会”，而不是能肯定“给一个工作”。ILBo根据语法知识分析，While在此引导让步状语，意为“虽然，尽管”。12. Do从上下文的逻辑看，该句句意为“父亲说,蒙哥马利沃德开了一家新商店,想雇请一个本地的运动员管理店里的体育部。我中学时曾在迪克森打过橄榄球，出于这个原因我去申请了这份工作。”13. Co我去申请了这份工作。14. Ao工作听起来挺适合我的.15. Bo从后面的内容可以推出，当时“我的沮丧心情一定表现出来了。”所以此时，“母亲（又）提醒我说。“一切总会好的,爸爸（还）给我买了一辆汽车找工作用。16. Do见15题解析。17. Aoboilover原意为“因沸溢出，发怒”，这里用于形容作者失望到了极点。其他几个短语意思分别为：turnover打翻，移交给，翻身，翻阅；hitover撞到；takeover接收；接管。18.DoWhen就在那时。19. Co结合文章所提供的语境可以知道此时没有比赛，因此是想象中的比赛。20. Do该句句意为“我经常想，如果（当年）我得到MOntgomeryWard的那份工作，我的生活方向（人生之路）又会怎样走呢？三、阅读理解1.Co根据第一个广告中的第五行，注意题干中的“most”。2. Ao根据第二个广告中的第三点。3. Bo根据最后一个广告的总体内容，尤其是第七点和第九点有提示。4. Ao由第四段可知，该卫星碎片的轨迹一定包含NeWZealand,可以排除B、D两项；由第三段可知，该卫星碎片从印度洋上空坠落，最后落在了太平洋；所以A项正确。5. Co由第五段“showitlandedearlierthantheythought,nowherenearNorthAmeriCa''可知。6. Ao由第六段第一句话可知，JointSpaceOperationsCenter对该卫星回归的预测非常准确。7.Co由最后一段可知，该卫星是1991年发射的，2005年停止使用，这颗卫星的设计使用年限被缩短了20年。所以，该卫星的设计使用年限是35年。四、书面表达立意h努力做最好的自己快乐生活Ascanbeseeninthepicture,twobirdsaresingingatthetopoftheirvoices,deeplyimmersed/absorbedintheirownsongs.However,whenweexaminethepicturemoreclosely,wecanseethatthewhitebirdissingingbeautifully,withperfectmusicalnotescomingoutofitsmouth,incontrast,theblackbirdcanonlymakeunpleasant/noisysounds.Ithinkthispictureconveysthemessage-beyourpersonalbest/bethebestofyourself.Beautifullyasthewhitebirdcansing,itisstillsingingtoperfectitself.Unpleasantasothersmaythinktheblackbird,svoiceis,theblackbirdissingingtoimproveitself.Indeed,therearesomanypeoplearoundus,likethewhitebird,whoareblessedwithtalentsandcanexcelinwhatevertheywanttodo.Ontheotherhand,therearealsopeople,liketheblackbird,whoareunfortunate.Whatevertheydo,theirresultsarejustheaverage.Inmyopinion,ifwecannotchangeourbirth,whybother?Justbeourbestselves.Ifwearebornclever,beoutstanding.Ifwearebornaverage,trytobebetter.Justenjoythelifeasitcanbe.立意2：认识自己不足，虚心学习，不怕丢脸，努力提高Inthepicture,wecanseetherearetwobirdsthataresinginghighupinthetree.Obviously,bothofthemarevigorousanddevotedintheirsongs.However,theonlydifferenceisthemelodycomingoutofthewhitebird,sbeakisintoxicating（酹人的）.Onthecontrarytheblackbird,sCaCoPhony（刺耳的音调）destroysthewholeatmosphere.Ibetthepoorblackbirdhimselfknowshowannoyinghisvoiceis.Butwhyishestillstandingtheresingingwithanexpert?Inmyopinion,thatiscourageandpersistenceofpursuingthebest.Poorsingerasheis,hedoesn'tgiveuphispassionforsinging.Humiliatinghimselfinfrontofthe“Pavarotti"，heisactuallylearningfromthewhitebirdwhichishisteacherinhismind.Allofusmightrespectthelittleblackcreature'sspirrtfromthispoint,butinourreallifehowmanyofUScanactuallydowhathedoes?Howmanytimesdidwegiveupchasingourdreamsjustbecauseothersarebetterthanus?Howmanytimesdidweescapefromembarrassmentwhenweknewothersmightlaughatourincompetence?EverysingleoneofusisafraidoflosingfaceinfrontofothersaslongasWearehumanbeings.ButifWeareeagertoexcelatwhatwedo,wemightaswellloseitandhumblylearnfromthebest.Becauseonlyinthisway,canwetrulyunproveourselvesandonedayinthefuturesingaloudsongsasenchantingasthewhitebirds,euphony.
