第三部分 英语知识运用
第一节 完形填空
【文章大意】文章讲述了一位与厄运抗争的女孩Maricel Apatan的故事。在一次暴徒袭击中，她失去了双手，但是这并没能阻止她实现自己的梦想。
41. C 根据语境推测小女孩和她的叔叔一起去打水（draw water）合乎情理。
42.B由下文＂Withalongknife,amanhacked(劈，砍)heronthenecktoo.＂可知歹徒携带的是长刀（longknives）。
43. A 歹徒命令小女孩的叔叔面朝下趴在地上。face down（面朝下）合乎情理。
44. D ＂the men were their neighbors＂是一种非常特别的情况，故用尤其是（especially）。
45. C 她试图逃跑，但是他们在后面追赶（run after）她。
46. A 根据前句＂Maricel fell to the ground and lost consciousness.＂和后面的＂she saw a lot of blood＂可知此处应用woke up（醒过来）暗示小女孩受到袭击后晕了过去，＂醒过来＂后发现有很多血。
47. D 由语境＂She also saw the feet of the men around her＂可以推测小女孩为了活命装死（dead）。
48. A当歹徒走开时，小女孩跑回了家。用when引导时间状语从句，其余连词与逻辑不符。
49. A 由短语＂in terror＂可知用scream适合语境，意为小女孩的母亲惊恐地尖叫。
50. B 遇到这种情况，女孩的母亲肯定会把小女孩送到医院（hospital）救治。
51. C 由下文语境＂Maricel’s family also didn’t have p50,000 for their hospital bills＂可以断定小女孩家很穷（poor）。
52. A上帝派很多天使来帮助这个家庭渡过难关。由作者的情感态度可以断定此处用angels来与God相呼应。
53. C 由下文＂They were sentenced to prison.＂暗示他们的一位远亲既付了药费，又把犯罪分子送上了法庭（court）。
54. B 本段主要是说明小女孩以积极的态度对待人生，所以用＂instead of staying down＂表示她没有萎靡不振、怨天尤人，而是积极向前。
55. A 由段尾信息＂Yes, a chef without hands.＂可以看出，小女孩在这起袭击中失去了双手（hands）。下文中的using her wrists也是暗示。
56. D 由文中的形容词＂incredible＂（难以置信的）可知此处应用amaze（使人惊奇）。
57. C 由下文的描述以及小女孩取得的成就＂best in computer＂可以推断这个小女孩学习很勤奋（diligent）。
58. A Hotel and Restaurant Management是酒店和餐厅管理，是一种培训课程，故用course。
59. D 上下文之间有程度上的递增关系，所以用even（甚至）。
60. A 由后面的暗示a chef without hands可知，小女孩最后成了一名厨师（cook）。
第二节
【文章大意】文章介绍一项研究发现 ——用小的盘子盛食物可以减少人们摄入食物的量，从而达到减肥的效果。
61. to use 考查非谓语动词。根据本句文意：我们中很多人用盘子来衡量吃多少东西。tend to do sth.往往会做某事。
62. which 考查定语从句。这里是非限制性定语从句，用which指代前面整个句子，which在从句中作主语。
63. smaller 考查形容词比较级。根据本句文意：剑桥大学的研究表明小点的盘子可能会减少我们吃摄入食物的量。因此用比较级形式。
64. while 考查连词。这里是美国人和英国人的情况的对比，while＂然而＂表示对比。
65. leaders考查名词复数。one of后面接可数名词复数。
66. the 考查冠词。此处用＂the+比较级+主谓，the+比较级+主谓＂句型，该句型意为＂越……越……＂。
67. but 考查连词。下文＂he said that until now, there was little research on this.＂（直到现在，关于这一点的调查几乎没有）和上文是转折关系，故用but。
68. added 考查时态。本段讲述的是Dr Gareth Hollands的言论，是过去的一般事实，因此用一般过去时。
69. Helping 考查非谓语动词。分析句子成分可知这句话的谓语是is，is前面是主语部分，此处用动名词作主语。
70. their考查代词。这里是减少食物和饮料的量，用their代替food or drink，形容词性物主代词their修饰size。
第四部分 写作
第一节短文改错
Last year, I received a student Felix from London. On the first day, I went to pick up at the airport and we chatted along the way. To help him know about Chinese culture, I many activities. For an example, we paid a visit to the famous Maoer Hutong, where we had an tour. I also took him to watch Beijing Opera. Although he could understand few , he was still surprised to see the colorful costumes the unique way of performing. When it was time for him to returnLondon, I sent him some Chinese gifts. He was very grateful what I had done.
【解析】
第一处：naming →named。此处意为＂我接待了一位来自伦敦的名叫Felix(菲利克斯)的学生＂。student和name之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系，因此应用过去分词作后置定语。
第二处：her →him。此处意为＂我去首都机场接他＂。由上下文可知Felix是男生，因此应该将代词her改为him。
第三处：happy →happily。修饰动词chatted应用副词形式happily。
第四处：prepare →prepared。此处表示过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。
第五处：去掉an。for example意为＂例如＂，为固定短语。
第六处：interested →interesting。表示事物本身具有的性质，应该使用现在分词形式的形容词。
第七处：word →words。word为可数名词，且前面有few修饰，因此应该使用其复数形式。
第八处：or →and。此处意为＂看到五颜六色的服装和独特的表演方式时还是感到很惊奇＂，因此应该将连词or改为and。
第九处：return后加to。return to意为＂回到……＂，London不是副词，to不能省略，因此应该在return后加to。
第十处：to →for。be grateful to sb. for sth.意为＂因某事而感激某人＂，是固定用法。
第二节书面表达
Dear Classmates,
The other day, one of our classmates was knocked down by a car at the crossing. It is not the car driver but the student himself who is to blame due to the fact that he ran through the red light.
Records show that an increasing number of people die in traffic accidents every year, most of whom walk regardless of speed limits, talk and laugh while riding bikes and cross the road without noticing the traffic lights. This will not only do harm to their own lives but also put other people in danger.
So many people violate traffic regulations that we should attach great importance to traffic safety. Only when everybody is aware of the problem can we be safe on roads.
Yours truly,
Li Lei

W:I guess I can understand.
M:The real joy in life is enjoying your present life. Seize the moment.
Text 10
As the car industry develops, traffic accidents have become as familiar as the common cold. Yet, their causes and control remain a serious problem that is difficult to solve. Experts have long recognized that this discouraging problem has various causes. At the very least, it is a problem that involves three factors: the driver, the vehicle, and the roadway. If all drivers exercise good judgment at all times, there would be fewer accidents. But that is rather like saying that if all people were honest, there would be no crime. Improved design has helped make highways much safer. But the type of accidents continued to rise because of human failure and a large increase in the numbers of automobiles on the road. Attention is now turning increasingly to the third factor of the accident, the car itself. Since people believe the accidents are bound to occur, they want to know how cars can be built better to protect the drivers.
