Part I Writing (30 minutes)
1. For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on How to Succeed in the Future Career. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:1. 要在将来取得事业成功,因素很多,试举例说明2. 你的看法(说明理由)
正确答案: How to Succeed in the Future Career [1]Now people are making untiring endeavors for self-realization in their careers. [2]There are many factors for career success, such as higher education, sound mastery of foreign languages and computer knowledge, rich working experience and strong senses of cooperation. [3]Some people think higher education is of great importance. [4]It is no denying that university education lays a solid foundation for one’s future success. [5]Personally, I adopt an opposite opinion that other factors are more important. [6]First of all, abundant working experience will facilitate one’s ways of settling problems in the future career. [7] Moreover, people’s competences of communication and cooperation with others will [8]make it easier for them to succeed in teamwork [9]undoubtedly. [10]In a word, it is unwise to [11]attach too much importance to education. It would be better if we [12]strike a balance between IQ and EQ in preparation for the future career.
解析:[1]引出话题,用self-realization代替success,在开篇就用特殊的用词吸引了读者的眼球。[2]列举促成事业成功的因素。[3]先简要阐述某些人的极端观点。[4]用It is no denying先肯定这种观点中内含的道理。[5]用Personally引出作者相反的观点。[6][7]分析原因,层次清晰。[8]用make it easier代替上文已出现的facilitate,体现用词的多样性。[10]在结尾段强调极端的观点和行为是不明智的。[12]提出明智的选择。
Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions attached to the passage. For questions 1-7, mark:Y (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for NOT GIVEN)if the information is not given in the passage.
The Interaction of Body and Mind The concept of psychosomatic illness Psycho, refers to mind, and soma, to body. Psychosomatic illness is the occurrence of bodily symptoms(症状) which are psychological or emotional in origin. Mind and
body are not separate; one affects and is affected by the other. Who has not experienced some physical manifestation of emotional stress? Such experiences as a headache after a quarrel and urinary frequency or diarrhea before an examination are not uncommon, and for most people they are of a temporary nature. The symptoms disappear and are forgotten after the crisis has passed. No treatment may be needed, or the patient may use simple remedies to relieve the discomfort. One person may find that a leisurely walk is the best cure for a headache; another may take aspirin. Certain conditions have been considered classic examples of psychosomatic illness: pepticulcer, eczema, colitis, and asthma. Personality profiles have been developed to describe the typical characteristics of persons who develop such illness. Another point of view is that human beings are more complex and varied in their responses than such profiles would indicate, and that the type of illness a patient develops in relation to stress varies with many additional factors, such as heredity and environment. Much remains to be learned about the relationship between stress and physical illness. Physical symptoms, such as palpitation, sweating, or disturbance of sleep, which reflect anxiety, may occur over a prolonged period. The symptoms may seem mysterious and threatening, because the patient is unaware of their cause. The patient whose heart beats more rapidly and forcefully as a manifestation of anxiety may report this symptom to his doctor, believing that something is wrong with his heart. Often the patient is not aware that he is anxious. He knows only that his heart keeps pounding for no apparent reason. Almost any symptom can have its origin in emotional stress. Some patients almost invariably have the same stress when they become anxious. One may have diarrhea, another asthma, and a third may develop hives or eczema. Some people develop two or several different symptoms; often the symptoms are experienced in an alternating fashion. The development of bodily symptoms is only one manifestation of anxiety. It may show up also symptoms that are primarily mental, such as the inability to concentrate or to remember. Such symptom too, vary in degree. Many people occasionally experience symptoms like moodiness or depression. When such symptoms are severe or long- lasting, they interfere with the functioning of individual in daily life and with his relationship with others. Sometimes a person subconsciously develops an illness as a way of handling a desperate need, such as the need for affection. The only real cure is to satisfy the primary desire. An example is a woman who has pain in her heart, not because of organic heart disease, but because the symptom is a way of gaining, if only temporarily, the love and attention for which she longs. Her husband cannot leave her when she is so sick; her children are concerned. Her pain is just as severe as if it had a physical cause.The reality of psychosomatic illness Is the patient with psychosomatic illness really sick, or does he merely imagine he is sick? Many people, including the families of patients and members of the health professions, believe that physical illness which is influenced by emotional stress is less real, or wholly imaginary. Acknowledging the reality of the patients’ illness is important; it is the first step in helping him. Patients with psychosomatic illness are likely to be neglected. The same staff who give excellent care to other patients, not uncommonly ignore them. Some possible reasons may include the use of the term psycho as a prefix.
Perhaps this conveys the idea that such patients are mentally iii, and therefore have no physical illness. Perhaps they are considered weaklings. One hears comments like, “He could snap out(克服) of it if he wanted to.” Prejudice against these patients may be due to a belief that they are pretending illness in an attempt to get attention or favors. A patient with psychosomatic illness may be confused with a malingerer, one who deliberately pretends illness in order to achieve secondary gain, such as financial compensation or excuse from work. Pretending illness is considered an unhealthy and unsatisfactory solution to the problems of life. Often it adds to the patient’s difficulties, as he makes elaborate attempts to avoid detection. A malingerer can be helped sometimes to find ways of coping with difficulties. The essential difference between psychosomatic illness and malingering is that the malingerer pretends symptoms. It is a conscious process and he is aware that he is pretending to be sick. The patient with psychosomatic illness develops symptoms as manifestation of largely unconscious psychic conflicts. The symptoms are real. Condemnation(责难) of the patient with psychosomatic illness can persist despite intellectual understanding of theories about its cause. The patient can sense immediately whether those who care for him are trying to help him or not. It is important to understand that: The patient with psychosomatic illness is really sick. He is not pretending or imagining his symptoms. The idea that he can “snap out of it” at will is no more true than it is of those with diseases like pneumonia, whose need for care is readily acknowledged.

C.He should add more protein products to his diet. D.He should reduce the consumption of sugar.
正确答案:B 解析:细节题。女士说And you need to watch your diet and cut back on the fatty foods,like ice cream.(你得注意饮食,少吃高脂肪的食物,如冰激淋。)cut back on表示“减少”的含义,与He should eat less fatty foods.意思相同。其他选项的salt,sugar,protein都没有提到,所以可以排除,因此选B。

听力原文: Social life in America varies tremendously from office to office. Big corporations may have dubs, sports teams, trips, dance classes, or other employee activities which you can join or not as you like, while small companies usually can’ t afford these activities. In general, people go to lunch with each other by invitation when they fed like it. Usually people of higher ranks would invite those of lower ranks rather than the other way around, but lines are not closely drawn. Except for special occasions, everyone pays for himself or herself regardless of whether or not an invitation is offered. It is quite acceptable for men and women colleagues, single or married, to go out together for lunch. This may be the extent to which your office friends will invite you. Although in general Americans readily take people home with them, they often do not want to mix business and social life. If this is the case in your place of work, you will have to seek your friendships through other channels.

听力原文: Darwin was not a bright boy. He was much slower than his younger sister, and he was in many ways a naughty boy. However, at the age of eight he was trying to make out all the names of the plants he saw, and he was busy collecting all sorts of things. And he even imagined producing colored roses by watering them with certain liquids. Once he read the book Wonders of the World, he wished to work wonders himself one day. One summer vacation Darwin became a great collector of beetles. At that time he only collected them but made no scientific study of them. One day when he tore off the bark, he saw some unusual beetles, and caught one in each hand, then he saw a third new kind. He didn’t want it to go away, so he put the one that he held in his right hand into his mouth. But it sent out some gas, which burned his tongue. He had to let it out. It was lost, so was the third one. At the age of 22, Darwin accepted the offer by the navy to go on a voyage to explore the nature in the name of the government on a warship. He was on board for five years, and during the long voyage he collected a great number of facts in natural science.

听力原文: Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment. Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas. There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control. Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. Which is the speaker most probably in favor of?30. What do we know about golf from the passage?31. Why does the speaker use power walking as an example?32. What is the speaker’s main purpose of giving this speech?

34.
A.It is popular in Portugal and Spain.
B.It causes water shortages around the world. C.It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.
D.It needs water and electricity to keep its courses green.
正确答案:D

正确答案:C

Canada’s Competition Bureau has some new guidelines governing on-line advertising and marketing that businesses with websites should keep in mind when making claims about products and services. On February 18, 2003, the Bureau clarified the rules relating to on-line advertising and marketing in an Information Bulletin addressing the application of the Competition Act to representations on the Internet. The Competition Act basically sets out rules relating to misleading representations and deceptive marketing practices. The Bulletin was issued to foster obedience with the Competition Act and ensure greater fairness, predictability and transparency in its application to representations made on the Internet. Specifically, it contains criminal and civil provisions that prohibit misleading representations and deceptive marketing practices related to products or services. Any representation that is false or misleading in a “material respect” is prohibited. As determined by the courts, a representation is deemed misleading in a material respect if it conveys a false impression to the ordinary citizen and would likely influence his or her decision to purchase the product. Although the Bulletin is not legally binding on the Competition Bureau, it sets out the Bureau’s position that the Competition Act applies equally to false or misleading representations regardless of the medium in which they are made. The rules set out in the Competition Act will be applied in a manner that is neutral—neither biasing business activity toward or away from the Internet. The Competition Bureau is of the opinion that responsibility for false or misleading advertisements lies with the person who “causes” the representation to be made. In the on-line context, this would typically be the business that controls the content of the website and for whom the website is made available. The Bulletin provides guidance to businesses operating websites and presents the Bureau’s opinion on the application of the Competition Act to representations made on-line. Obviously, determining whether or not a particular representation is false or misleading will depend on all of the circumstances surrounding the representation. Businesses concerned about the potential application of the provisions on misleading representations and deceptive marketing practices in the Competition Act to their websites should consult with their legal advisor.
58. According to the article, the function of the bulletin put out by the Competition Bureau was to ______.
A.eliminate deceptive on-line advertising B.introduce the Competition Act
C.clarify roles related to on-line advertising and marketing
D.inform the Canadian public about deceptive marketing practices
正确答案:C
解析:逻辑关系题。根据第一段末尾一句可知,竞争管理局发布信息公告是为了阐明网上广告和营销规章。
59. The word “foster”(Para. 2) means “______”. A.force B.promote C.educate D.eliminate
正确答案:B
解析:词义判断题。根据动宾搭配关系以及其后的信息“ensure greater fairness,predictability and transparency”可以推知,该词词义应为“促进”。
60. According to the article, the Competition Bureau holds that the Competition Act ______.
A.applies equally to all representations
B.conveys a false impression to ordinary citizens C.should be followed rigorously
D.has effectively eliminated deceptive online advertising
正确答案:A
解析:事实细节题。第三段开头明确指出,该公告表明了管理局的立场,即《竞争条例》平等地适用于虚假性或者误导性宣传。
61. According to the Competition Bureau, the responsibility for misleading representations lies with ______.
A.the owner of the website B.the telephone company C.the website operator

Walt Disney started his animation career in Kansas City, Missouri, producing films that were a combination of cartoon and live action and starring a curious little girl named Alice. Hoping for greater success, he moved to Los Angeles in 1923, joining his brother, Roy. Once the creative possibilities with the Alice series were exhausted, Disney started producing films for a new animated character, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, in 1927. Mickey Mouse was conceived the next year during a cross-country train ride, according to the “official” company history. Walt Disney had just been forced to give up the Oswald rights to his cruel New York distributor, who had exercised copyright control over the character. On the ride back home to Los Angeles, Disney made up a little mouse named Mortimer. His wife, Lillian, thought the name too pompous(华而不实的) and suggested Mickey. Steamboat Willie, Mickey’s screen debut, was an instant hit, arriving in the same year, a time when technological advances in motion pictures, radio and the phonograph(留声机) were transforming mass culture. By the end of the 1930s, Mickey had starred in more than 100 cartoons. Mickey gradually transformed both physically and spiritually, His face was rounded out and his eyes went from black ovals to white eyes with pupils in the late 1930s. His face became friendlier, less rat-like. Mickey Mouse became the face that launched a thousand merchandise products. Watches. Pencils. Bed sheets. Alarm clocks. Telephones. He is one of the most merchandised faces ever-- about $ 4.5 billion a year in sales--even though he’s currently second to Winnie the Pooh for the Disney company. Mickey’s popularity may have declined in the 1940s, but he gained new life in the 1950s with the airing of TV’s Mickey Mouse Club and the opening of Disneyland in Anaheim, California. In the succeeding decades, Mickey has been a regular presence on television on the Disney Channel and is photographed daily alongside thousands of tourists at theme parks in California, Florida, France and Japan. “Mickey Mouse speaks an international language,” Sklar said. “When I go to Tokyo and see how kids react to Mickey Mouse the same way they do in Paris, it’s reassuring that there are some things that cross international boundaries.” All from a simple cartoon. Said author Wasko, “Mickey represents a fascinating interweaving of culture, politics and economics.”
63. Walt and his brother Roy worked together______. A.to create a cartoon character called Alice B.to produce the role of Mickey
C.to resist giving up the character’s fights to others D.to make greater career success
正确答案:D
解析:此句给出了Walt同Roy合伙的目的是为了更大的成功,所以选D。
64. Steamboat Willie was “Mickey’s screen debut” (Line l, Para. 4), which means that______.
A.it was the first time that Mickey appeared in films B.this cartoon was a big success
C.it was the last time that Mickey appeared in films D.Mickey was the leading role in this film
正确答案:A
解析:对于debut这个词的理解主要根据上下文。第三段介绍了米老鼠是怎样被迪斯尼创造出来的,而在第四段讲米老鼠登上舞台后迅速走红,并且在首句中还有arriving一词,可见debut的意思就是“初次登台”,因此选A。
65. Mickey Mouse arrived on the world’s cultural stage______. A.after a long-time effort by Walt Disney B.with white eyes with pupils C.in 1928
D.with the name “Mortimer”
正确答案:C 解析:第四段首句中提到arriving in the same year, 其中the same year指的是第二段中的the next year, 即1927年的第二年:1928年,可知C正确、即迪斯尼在1927年创造了幸运的兔子奥斯维德,第二年创造了米奇,首邮电影在同年上映并迅速走红,所以可以推断出米奇登上世界文化舞台的时间是1928年。
66. What can we learn about Winnie the Pooh from the passage? A.Winnie the Pooh is another mouse.
B.Winnie the Pooh appears more often than Mickey Mouse on TV. C.Winnie the Pooh is not an animated character.
D.Winnie the Pooh is one product of the Disney company.
正确答案:D
解析:文中直接给出...even though he’s currently second to Winnie the Pooh for the Disney company.所以D正确。
67. As an international star, Mickey______. A.knows many foreign languages
B.plays an important role in cross-cultural communication C.has always been the most popular Disney character D.has his face changed frequently
正确答案:B 解析:最后两段全部在说米奇跨国界、跨文化的影响,并说他展现出了政治、
文化、经济上的交融,可见米奇在跨文化的交流中扮演了重要的角色,B正确。
Part V Cloze (15 minutes)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage.
It’s an annual back-to-school routine. One morning you wave goodbye, and that【C1】______evening you’re burning the ;late-night oil in sympathy. In the race to improve educational standards,【C2】______are throwing the books at kids.【C3】______elementary school students are complaining of homework【C4】______. What’s a well-meaning parent to do? As hard as【C5】______may be, sit back and chill, experts advise. Though you’ve got to get them to do it,【C6】______helping too much, or even examining【C7】______too carefully, you may keep them【C8】______doing it by themselves. “I wouldn’t advise a parent to check every【C9】______assignment,” says psychologist John Rosemond, author of Ending the Tough Homework. There’s a【C10】______of appreciation for trial and error, let your children【C11】______the grade they deserve. Many experts believe parents should gently look over the work of younger children and ask them to rethink their【C12】______. But “you don’t want them to feel it has to be【C13】______.” she says. That’s not to say parents should【C14】______homework first, they should monitor how much homework their kids【C15】______. “Thirty minutes a day in the early elementary years and an hour in【C16】______four, five, and six is standard, “says Rosemond ,”For junior-high students it should be【C17】______more than a hour and a half, and two for high school students. “If your child【C18】______has more homework than this. You may want to check【C19】______other parents and then talk to the teacher about【C20】______assignments.
68. 【C1】 A.very B.exact C.right D.schools
正确答案:A
解析:根据第一句,学校开学了,常规的学习又开始了。该句是对第一句的详述。早晨与家人道别,而晚上熬夜。首先可以排除选项D,因为无论是意义还是连接都不适合。而选项B和 C(分别指“精确的”和“正确的”)与evening连接也不正确,A项very用在名词前起强调意义,表示“正是在同一天晚上”。故选A)。
69. 【C2】 A.officials B.parents
C.experts D.schools
正确答案:D
解析:为提高教育水平而比赛的是学校,为了在比赛中获胜或不落后,学校老师把许多书本压给学生读,再根据下一句小学生抱怨家庭作业太多,也可以判断这主要是老师造成的。所以从四个选项中最适合题意而且能够和上下文一致的只有D项schools。其他三个选项皆不适合。
70. 【C3】 A.Also B.Even C.Then
D.However
正确答案:B
解析:从上下文判断,空格所在句是对前一句的例证。从意义上讲,指“连小学生都在抱怨…”,可排除表示转折的选项D,表示因果的选项C,以及表示递进关系的选项A。小学生应当是作业负担较轻的,而现在连他们也在抱怨,所以B项Even正确。
71. 【C4】 A.fatigue B.confusion C.duty D.puzzle
正确答案:A
解析:参照上题,小学生抱怨的往往是家庭作业太多,第一句也讲学生几乎天天熬夜。根据这些上下文信息,可以判断A项fatigue(疲惫,劳累)是符合的。而其选选项(其中选项B和D意义部分重合,都有“迷惑不解”的意思,选项C表示“职责”)在意义上都不适合。故选A)。
72. 【C5】 A.there B.we C.they D.it
正确答案:D
解析:该空格所在句包含“as+形容词+as+主语+be”的结构,表示逗号后面部分与前面意义转折,这里要填的是主语,根据形容词hard的意义及其连接,可以排除选项A(there不会作主语),排除B项we(一般没有we are hard之类的用法);C项they没有明确的复数名词指代 (不可能是本句的experts),也应当排除。
根据第一段的末句“What’s a well-meaning parent to do?”所提示的上下文信息可以判断,空格处可以是父母要做的事情,即“what a parent is to do”,用it代替,故选项D正确。
73. 【C6】 A.via B.under C.by D.for
正确答案:C
解析:该空格要联系后面的两个空格来理解和判断,句子意义为“虽然你得让他们去做(指让孩子做作业),但是过多地帮助或是过细地检查他们的作业,反而阻止了他们自己的学习。”所以从句子意义和空格的前后词句可以判断,要填的词和后面的现在分词词组组成方式状语(作keep...from...动词词组的方式状语),符合此意义的只有C项by(by doing sth.);A项via是“经由”后面通常接表地点的名词,故排除;选项B和D则明显意义不符。故选C)。
74. 【C7】 A.questions B.answers C.standards D.rules
正确答案:B
解析:参照上一题所及的句子意义,以及上下文的信息,该句指家长应当让孩子自己去做作业而不要过多干预,家长检查孩子作业,所检查的当然是答案,所以此题只有选项B适合,故选B)。
75. 【C8】 A.off B.without C.beyond D.from
正确答案:D
解析:参照前两题所及的句子意义,再考虑keep一词的用法,该动词的固定搭配词组有“keep sb. from (doing)sth.”表示“阻止某人做某事”,适合句子意义,四个选项中只有D项适合,故选D)。
76. 【C9】 A.single B.piece C.page
D.other
正确答案:A
解析:该空格所在句是引用专家的话,句子意义为“我建议父母不要检查孩子的每一次的作业。”首先可以排除的是选项B和C,因为这两个名词都不可以修饰assignment,而every other则表示“每隔一个”与前面的否定相连接意义不符,故排除。而every single后接可数名词表强调意义“每一个”,在该句合适,故选A)。
77. 【C10】 A.drop B.short C.cut D.lack
正确答案:D 解析:该空格所在句的意义为“家长过多干预孩子的作业会使孩子失去尝试不同方法而获得最佳结果的感觉”.这里能够表示“缺乏,失去”意义的名词只有D项lack而选项B short是形容词;A项drop表示“下降”;C项cut作名词指量的减少,搭配不适合。故选D)。
78. 【C11】 A.acquire B.earn C.gather D.reach
正确答案:B
解析:该空格所在句的意义为“让孩子得他们该得的等级(分数)。”四个选项中,A和B都有“得到”的意义,但前者指一点点的积累获得,其宾语一般是知识、能力,而earn通常指自己努力挣得(如分数、收入等),所以从意义上讲,选项B更合适。选项C和D较明显意义连接不当。故选B)。
79. 【C12】 A.exercises B.defects C.mistakes D.tests
正确答案:C 解析:该空格所在的句子意义是专家对家长的建议,家长要温和地而不是过细地检查孩子的作业,要求孩子反思自己的错误。选项B意为“缺陷,瑕疵”,用在学习方面是不适合的;而 exercises(练习)和tests(考试)不符合上下文所指的作业,而作业中有错误是极为常见的,是最需要重新思考(rethink)的。故选C)。
80. 【C13】 A.perfect B.better C.unusual D.complete
正确答案:A
解析:参照上一题所提供的上下文信息,以及该空格所在句子的意义“不要让孩子感觉作业必须做到完美(没有任何错误)”,该句句首的but是个信号词,虽然家长要孩子反思作业中的错误,但不要使他们感到作业必须完美无缺。所以该空格填perfect最合适。故选A)。
81. 【C14】 A.forget B.refuse C.miss D.ignore
正确答案:D
解析:该空格所在的句子指的是:本文作者希望家长不要误解其本意,作者前面说对孩子的作业不必过细检查,不要让孩子感觉必须做到完美,但并不是说对孩子的作业置之不理,不管不顾,听之任之。四个选项中最合此意的是D项ignore;选项A和C都是“非故意的”,而选项B表示“拒绝”之意,不符合句子意义。故选D)。
82. 【C15】 A.have B.prepare C.make D.perform
正确答案:A
解析:根据句子意义“家长应当督查孩子有多少作业”。再从动宾搭配来看,能够作homework的谓语动词而意义符合的并不多,一般用“do”、“write”、“have”等,该题的四个选项中只有 have合适。其他均不妥当。
83. 【C16】 A.classes B.groups C.grades D.terms
正确答案:C
解析:该空格所在句子的意义是“小学低年级的作业量是每天半小时,而四、五、六年级的作业量为每天一个小时,这是标准量”,后一句讲初中生的作业量应当是每天一个半小时,所以根据意义和上下文,空格处要填的是“年级”,而且是复数形式,故选C项。其他选项都不正确。
84. 【C17】 A.about B.no C.much D.few
正确答案:B
解析:该题测试的主要是搭配。四个选项中,能够后面接more than...的只有选项B和C,排除选项A和D,但从全文以及上下文的意义来看,初中生的作业量不应当超过每天一个半小时,而不是大大超过每天二个半小时(much more than),因为后文提到高中生的作业量约两个小时,所以排除选项C,故选B)。
85. 【C18】 A.previously B.rarely C.merely
D.consistently
正确答案:D
解析:该题的空格和后面的两个空格在同一句。该句的意义是“如果你的孩子的作业量一贯地超过以上标准,那么你可以和其他同学的父母核对,然后再和老师商讨减少作业量的事。” 从文章第一段可知,孩子几乎每天熬夜做作业,作者对此持反对态度,所以这句话是对家长的建议。从意义上看,A项previously(先前)提示现在和以前不同了,B项rarely(很少地,稀有地),C项merely(仅仅地)放在句子里都不合适,而D项consistently(一贯地,自始至终地)符合句意。故选D)。
86. 【C19】 A.with B.in C.out D.up
正确答案:A 解析:参照上一题所及的句子意义,能够表达“和……核对”(check sth.with sb.),四个选项中只有A项正确。而词组check in指“检查通过,登记住宿”,checkout指“结账后离开”,check up虽有“核对,检验”的意义,但是填在句子里意思成了“核对其他家长了”,显然是不合适的。故选A)。
87. 【C20】 A.finishing B.lowering C.reducing D.declining
正确答案:C
解析:参照前两题,该空格要填的词意思应当为“减少”而且要能够修饰名词assignments,所以排除选项A;而lower虽然有“降低”的意义,但宾语不可用assignments decline作及物动词时意思一般是“婉拒”,不适合此句;只有选项C准确地表示“减少”和宾语一起表示“减少作业量”,故选C)。

90. The police officer thoroughly ______ the cause of the accident, but they couldn’t find any trace.
A.explored B.examined C.investigated D.analyzed
