PartⅡ Language Knowledge (45 marks)

Section A (15 marks)

Directions: For each of the following unfinished sentences there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that best completes the sentence.

Example：The wild flowers looked like a soft orange blanket ________ the desert.

A．covering B．covered

C．cover D．to cover

TheanswerisA.

21 Happiness and success often come to those ________ are good at recognizing their own strengths.

A. whom B. who

C. what D. which

21．B　 考查定語從句。句意：幸福和成功往往降臨到那些善于認識到自己優點的人身上。空格前的代詞those指代“人”，且在定語從句中作主語，故用who引導定語從句。

22． “What do you want to be？” asked Mrs Crawford. “Oh, I ________ Psident，” said the boy, with a smile.

A. have been B. am

C. was D. will be

22．D　 考查動詞的時態。句意：Crawford夫人問道：“你(長大了)想干什么？”“哦，我想當總統。”男孩面帶微笑地說。根據問句“What do you want to be？”可知，該句中暗含“when you grow up”，因此回答用一般將來時。

23． You must learn to consult your feelings and your reason ________ you reach any decision.

A. although B. before

C. because D. unless

23．B　 考查時間狀語從句。句意：做任何決定之前都要學會顧及自己的感受和做這件事的理由。此處before引導時間狀語從句，意為“在……之前”。

24． Around two o'clock every night, Sue will start talking in her dream. It somewhat ________ us.

A. bothers B. had bothered

C. would bother D. bothered

24．A　 考查動詞的時態。句意：每天晚上2點左右，Sue總會說夢話。這弄得我們有點兒煩。此處will是情態動詞，意為“總會”。根據every night可知是“經常”發生的動作，因此用一般現在時。

25． The sun began to rise in the sky, ________ the mountain in golden light.

A. bathed B. bathing

C. to have bathed D. having bathed

25．B　 考查非謂語動詞。句意：太陽在天空中升起，叢山沐浴在金色的光亮之中。此處bathe是及物動詞，意為“把……浸泡在……之中”，在這里用作結果狀語，與主句的主語the sun構成邏輯上的主動關系，故用動詞-ing形式。

26． If nothing ________， the oceans will turn into fish deserts.

A. does B. had been done

C. will do D. is done

26．D　 考查動詞的時態和語態。句意：如果置之不理，海洋就會變成魚類的沙漠(海洋里就會沒有魚)。條件狀語從句和時間狀語從句中不能用將來時，只能用現在時表示將來的動作；而且主語nothing與動詞do之間是被動的關系，因此要用被動語態。故D項正確。

27．?Have you heard about the recent election?

?Sure, it ________ the only thing on the news for the last three days.

A. would be B. is

C. has been D. will be

27．C　 考查動詞的時態。句意：??你聽到過有關最近的選舉的消息了嗎？??肯定聽過啦，這可是最近三天唯一的新聞事件。根據時間狀語for the last three days可知，該新聞一直延續到了現在，用現在完成時態。

28．Do not let any failures discourage you, for you can never tell ________ close you may be to victory.

A. how B. that

C. which D. where

28．A　 考查名詞性從句。句意：別讓失敗弄得你垂頭喪氣，因為你永遠不知道你離勝利有多么近。及物動詞tell后接賓語從句，該賓語從句本身又是一個感嘆句；修飾形容詞close用how。

29． You cannot accept an opinion ________ to you unless it is based on facts.

A. offering B. to offer

C. having offered D. offered

29．D　 考查非謂語動詞。句意：你不能接受別人給你提出的建議，除非該建議是基于事實的。過去分詞offered作定語修飾名詞opinion，與該名詞構成邏輯上的被動關系。

30． Every day ________ a proverb aloud several times until you have it memorized.

A. read B. reading

C. to read D. reads

30．A　 考查祈使句。句意：每天都要幾次大聲朗讀一句諺語，直到你記住為止。連詞until引導時間狀語從句，前面為主句，其主語實際上是you。不要被時間狀語every day所迷惑。

31． ________ warm at night, I would fill the woodstove, then set my alarm clock for midnight so I could refill it.

A. Staying B. Stayed

C. To stay D. Stay

31．C　 考查非謂語動詞。句意：為了晚上保暖，我往火爐中添了木材，又設置了午夜鬧鈴以便及時添加。此處“保暖”是“添加木材”的目的，故用不定式表示。

32． He ________ sleep, although he tried to, when he got on such a hunt for an idea until he had caught it.

A. wouldn't B. shouldn't

C. couldn't D. mustn't

32．C　 考查情態動詞辨析。句意：盡管他想睡，但是卻睡不著，當時他一直在拼命想著一件事，一直到想清楚為止。此處couldn't意為 “不能”，符合題意。

33． The university estimates that living expenses for international students ________ around $8，450 a year, which ________ a burden for some of them.

A. are；is B. are；are

C. is；are D. is；is

33．A　 考查主謂一致。句意：那所大學估計，對國際學生來說，一年的生活開銷大約是8450美元，這對他們中某些學生來說是一個負擔。第一空的主語是living expenses，是復數，因此謂語動詞用復數；第二空的主語是which，指代的是前面整個句子，因此謂語動詞用單數。

34． ?I don't understand why you didn't go to the lecture yesterday afternoon.

?I'm so sorry. But I________ my homework.

A．had done B. was doing

C. would do D. am doing

34．B　 考查動詞的時態。句意：??我不解的是你昨天下午怎么不去聽講座。??對不起。但是(當時)我正在做家庭作業。很顯然，“聽講座”和“做家庭作業”是同時進行的。因此，要用過去進行時。

35． Not once ________ to Michael that he could one day become a top student in his class.

A. occurred it B. it did occur

C. it occurred D. did it occur

35．D　 考查倒裝。句意：邁克爾從來沒有想到過有一天自己會成為班上的優秀學生之一。否定詞not once置于句首，引起部分倒裝。

Section B (18 marks)

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are fourwords or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blankwith theword or phrase that best fits the context.

When I was 8 years old, I once decided to run away from home. With my suitcase __36__ and some sandwiches in a bag, I started for the front door and said to Mom, “I'm leaving.”

“If you want to __37__， that's all right，” she said. “But you came into this home without anything and you can leave the same way.” I __38__ my suitcase and sandwiches on the floor heavily and started for the door again.

“Wait a minute，” Mom said. “I want your __39__ back. You didn't wear anything when you arrived.” This really angered me. I tore my clothes off?shoes, socks, underwear and all?and __40__．“Can I go now？” “Yes，” Mom answered, “but once you close that door, don't expect to come back.”

I was so __41__ that I slammed (砰地關上) the door and stepped out on the front porch. __42__ I realized that I was outside, with nothing on. Then I noticed that down the street, two neighbor girls were walking toward our house. I ran to __43__ behind a big tree in our yard at once. After a while, I was __44__ the girls had passed by. I dashed to the front door and banged on it loudly.

“Who's there？” I heard.

“It's Billy! Let me in！”

The voice behind the __45__ answered, “Billy doesn't live here anymore. He ran away from home.” Glancing behind me to see if anyone else was coming, I begged, “Aw, c'mon, Mom! I'm __46__ your son. Let me in！”

The door inched open and Mom's smiling face appeared. “Did you change your __47__ about running away？” she asked.

【要點綜述】 八歲時，作者有過一次離家出走的經歷，當時媽媽沒有阻攔，她巧妙地讓作者意識到自己還沒有獨立生活的能力。

36. A　考查動詞的辨析。因pack與它所修飾的名詞suitcase為動賓關系，故用過去分詞作賓補，表示衣服等放在箱子里“打包”。

37. D　考查動詞短語的辨析。根據第一段可知，作者是要離家出走。下文也有提示。

38. C　考查動詞的辨析。媽媽告訴作者，他來到這個家時，什么都沒有帶，走的時候也要這樣。所以作者就把箱子和三明治重重地“扔”在地板上，又朝門口走去。

39. B　考查名詞的辨析。根據空后的“You didn't wear anything when you arrived.”和下文的“…with nothing on…”可知，媽媽是要作者脫掉身上的“衣服”。

40. D　考查動詞的辨析。根據上文中的“This really angered me.”可知，作者撕爛了衣服?鞋子?襪子和內衣。與此對應的就應該是“大聲咆哮”，發泄心中的憤怒。

41. A　考查形容詞的辨析。承接上一段，媽媽最后說，走了就別想再回來。這更加讓作者生氣。所以作者“砰”一聲關上門，來表達心中的“憤怒”。

42. C　考查副詞的辨析。憤怒之中的作者根本沒有注意到自己的形象，等到出來一看，發現自己身上沒有衣服，當然是非常“突然地”。

43. B　考查動詞的辨析。此時恰好又看見兩個鄰家女孩朝自己家門口走過來，作者顯然覺得不好意思。此時又不能進屋，只好立即跑到院子里的一棵大樹后“躲”起來。

44. A　考查形容詞的辨析。因為沒有穿衣服，看到兩個女孩走過來作者才躲起來的。他此時才想到離家出走根本行不通，因此，他在“肯定”那兩個女孩走了之后，才敢跑到門口大聲撞門。

45. C　考查名詞的辨析。根據上文可知，媽媽在家里，說話的應是媽媽。因此傳過來的聲音是在“門”后的。

46. B　考查副詞的辨析。根據上文可知，作者請求媽媽讓自己回家，只好使出最后一招“我還是你的兒子”。副詞still表示“仍然，還”。

47. D　考查名詞的辨析。此處呼應第一段的“…I once decided to run away from home.”，表示媽媽進一步確認，作者是否改變了離家出走這一“決定”。

Section C (12 marks)

Directions: Complete the following passage by filling in each blankwith oneword that best fits the context.

When kids in parts of the world want to play, they often make soccer balls out of trash tied together with string. “ 48.________ the areas used for playing fields are often rough and rocky, millions of real balls go flat (變癟) 49.________ 24 hours，” says Tim Jahnigen, a California businessman. Determined to solve this problem, 50.________ created an indestructible ball called the One World Futbol.

The ball is made of 51.________ special material, ethylene-vinylacetatefoam. It's lightweight, it's flexible, and?52.________ important?it holds its shape.

The One World Futbol needs no pump 53.________ won't wear out, even on rough surfaces. When tested, 54.________ withstood (經受住) being crushed by a car, and even being chewed on by a lion.

Although it costs more to produce 55.________ a typical soccer ball, Jahnigen estimates the One World Futbol can last 30 years. So far, it's been given to kids in 143 countries.

【要點綜述】 由于真正的足球容易變形損壞，所以Tim Jahnigen發明了一種耐用的新式足球。

48. Because　考查連詞的用法。“因為”用來踢足球的場地常常崎嶇不平且有很多巖石，“所以”大多數足球很容易消氣、變癟。because引導原因狀語從句。

49. within　考查介詞的用法。下一空前solve this problem“解決這個問題”，說明足球消氣、變癟是很容易的，也就是時間很短，在24小時“以內”。

50. he 　考查人稱代詞的用法。句子缺主語，he指代上文中提到的Tim Jahnigen。

51. a　考查冠詞的用法。名詞material是可數的。這種足球是由一種特殊的材料制成的。

52. most　考查形容詞比較等級的用法。破折號后是it holds its shape“能保持不變形”，這一點正是針對上一段的問題而言的，正是“最”重要的一點。

53. and　考查并列連詞的用法。連接兩個并列的否定詞組no pump和won't wear out，意為“不用打氣，也不會磨損”。

54. it　考查指示代詞的用法。本句缺主語，而且該主語與test構成邏輯上的被動關系，可見指代的是上文中的The One World Futbol。

55. than　考查連詞的用法。根據空前的more和空后的比較對象a typical soccer ball可知答案。

Part Ⅲ　Reading ComPhension (30 marks)

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.

A

Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.

AVOID BIG EVENTS　Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost ￡169.15 at Booking.com. A week later, the same room cost ￡118.15.

If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid?or you're looking for a big event to pass your time?check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.

STAY AWAY FROM THE STATION　If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.

Don't be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge's Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was ￡95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was ￡75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just ￡62.95.

LOOK AFTER YOURSELF　Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings. A great example is the historic O'Neill Flat on Edinburgh's Royal Mile, available for ￡420 for five days in late September, with room for four adults.

GET ON A BIKE　London's “Boris bikes” have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.

Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around ￡1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or ￡5 per day)．

56. The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may ________．

A. help travelers pass time

B. attract lots of travelers to the UK

C. allow travelers to make flexible plans

D. cause travelers to pay more for accommodation

57．“Farringdon” in Paragraph 5 is most probably ________．

A. a hotel away from the train station

B. the tube line to Covent Garden

C. an ideal holiday destination

D. the name of a travel agency

58．The passage shows that the O'Neill Flat ________．

A. lies on the ground floor

B. is located in central London

C. provides cooking facilities for tourists

D. costs over ￡100 on average per day in late September

59．Cardiff's program allows a free bike for a maximum period of ________．

A. half an hour

B. one hour

C. one hour and a half

D. two hours

60．The main purpose of the passage is ________．

A. to tell visitors how to book in advance

B. to supply visitors with hotel information

C. to show visitors the importance of self-help

D. to offer visitors some money-saving tips

【要點綜述】 文章主要介紹了到英國參觀時一些省錢的技巧。

56. D　推理判斷題。文章提到同樣的一間房在這個節日和不在這個節日時的價格不同，因此這里是說明在盛大節日時旅行者付出的房費要高一些。

57. A　推理判斷題。此段的標題就是講住宿要遠離車站，而作者列舉Farringdon的雙人間價格非常便宜，因此可以推斷Farringdon是一個離車站比較遠的賓館。

58. C　細節理解題。 根據此段的“…checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen.” 可知，它是一個為游客提供做飯設備的賓館。

59. A　細節理解題。 根據文章最后一句中的“…Cardiff free for up to 30 minutes…”可知，Cardiff能提供最多30分鐘的自行車免費租用時間。

60. D　寫作意圖題。 文章主要是說在英國旅游省錢的一些好方法，因此D是最佳選項。

B

In my living room, there is a plaque (匾) that advises me to “Bloom (開花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy. I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s, when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky. The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program. Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who “bloomed” in her remote area.

Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area. To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road winding around the mountain. In the eight-mile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times. Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it dePssing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.

From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom (憂郁) disappeared. Upon arriving at Dorothy's classroom, I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen. The children had been Ppared to show me their latest projects. Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for “dinner” (lunch). In case you don't know, poke greens are a weed-type plant that grows wild, especially on poor ground.

Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students. Her enthusiasm never cooled down. When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification, Dorothy was ready. She came to the assessment and passed in all areas. Afterward, she invited me to the one-and-only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory, as if she had received her Ph.D. degree. After the meal, she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand. She said it was a family heirloom (傳家寶), but to me it is a treasured symbol of apPciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.

61．“Early Childhood Development” in Paragraph 1 refers to ________．

A. a program directed by Dorothy

B. a course given by the author

C. an activity held by the students

D. an organization sponsored by Union College

62．In the journey, the author was most disappointed at seeing ________．

A. the long track B. the poor houses

C. the same train D. the winding road

63．Upon arriving at the classroom, the author was cheered up by ________．

A. a warm welcome

B. the sight of poke greens

C. Dorothy's latest projects

D. a big dinner made for her

64．What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?

A. She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.

B. She got a pen as a gift from the author.

C. She passed the required assessment.

D. She received her Ph.D. degree.

65．What does the author mainly intend to tell us?

A. Whatever you do, you must do it carefully.

B. Whoever you are, you deserve equal treatment.

C. However poor you are, you have the right to education.

D. Wherever you are, you can accomplish your achievement.

【要點綜述】 Dorothy在一所條件非常差的學校獲得了很大的成功，這說明一個人獲得成功與他在什么地方沒有直接關系，最重要的是要付出努力。

61. B　細節理解題。 根據文章第一段第三句可知，Early Childhood Development是作者教的一門課程。

62. B　細節理解題。 根據文章第二段最后一句的“…the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.”可知，又小又破的房子使作者感到最為失望，因此B項正確。

63. A　細節理解題。根據文章第三段第一、二句可知，一到Dorothy的教室，作者就受到熱烈的歡迎，這使她的憂郁消失了，因此A項正確。

64. C　推理判斷題。 文章最后一段第三句提到Dorothy面試材料準備充分，而此段的“…to celebrate her victory…”說明Dorothy已經通過了評估測試。

65. D　主旨大意題。文章通過講述Dorothy在極其惡劣的環境下獲得成功的故事，說明一個人不管在什么地方，只要付出努力就能實現自己的夢想，因此D項正確。

C

It's such a happy-looking library, painted yellow, decorated with palm-tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof. About the size of a microwave oven, it's pedestrian-friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.

It's a library built with love.

A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That's what we're going to do for our spring break！”

Son Austin, now a 10th-grader, didn't see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51-year-old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he'd built years earlier for daughter Abbie's toy horses, and made a door of glass.

After adding the library's final touches (裝點), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book，” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2，500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.

They stocked it with 20 or so books they'd already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids' favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again，” said Janey, a stay-at-home mom.

Since then, the collection keeps replenishing (補充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.

The project's best payoff, says Peter, are the thank-you notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”

66．In what way is the library “pedestrian-friendly”？

A. It owns a yellow roof.

B. It stands near a sidewalk.

C. It protects book lovers from the sun.

D. It uses palm-tree stickers as decorations.

67．Janey got the idea to build a library from ________．

A. a visit to Brian Williams

B. a spring break with her family

C. a book sent by one of her neighbors

D. a report on a Wisconsin-based organization

68．The library was built ________．

A. by a ship supply company

B. on the basis of toy horses

C. like a mailbox

D. with glass

69．What can we infer about the signboard?

A. It was made by a user of the library.

B. It marked a final touch to the library.

C. It aimed at making the library last long.

D. It indicated the library was a family property.

70．The passage tells us that the users ________．

A. donate books to the library

B. get paid to collect books for the library

C. receive thank-you notes for using the library

D. visit the library over 5 times on average daily

【要點綜述】 文章主要講述了Janey Henriksen一家建立微型圖書館的故事。

66. B　細節理解題。 根據文章第一段第二句可知這個特殊的圖書館為過路的人提供借書的方便，因此B項正確。

67. D　細節理解題。 根據文章第三段第一句可知Janey Henriksen是因為看到一篇關于the Little Free Library organization準備建社區圖書館的報道后受到啟發才建這樣特殊的圖書館的。

68. C　細節理解題。 根據文章第四段第一句可知C項正確。

69. C　推理判斷題。 根據文章第五段可知，這個標牌要讀者拿走一本書一定要歸還，其目的是使圖書館能夠持續更長的時間。

70. A　主旨大意題。根據文章倒數第二段第一句可知借書者經常捐書給圖書館，因此A項正確；文章沒有提到給圖書館籌備書應獲得報酬，因此B項錯誤；文章最后一段提到Peter經常收到借書者的感謝信，而不是借書者收到感謝信，因此C項錯誤；根據文章倒數第二段第二句可知D項錯誤。

Part Ⅳ　Writing (45 marks)

Section A (10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

While there is no widely accepted definition of MOOCs, their key features are open access：they are currently free to participants, no entry qualifications are required, they support an unlimited number of participants and as yet, very few include any form of accreditation (認證)．

Currently offered by some famous universities, MOOCs are attractive to people who do not have the financial resources to meet the growing costs of university education, or who do not have formal qualifications. They also allow participants to study at their own pace.

The potential for MOOCs to deliver education is obviously vast?they could be considered as a huge step forwards in widening participation. They also have the potential to provide a unique window on universities that offer popular and valuable courses, they may attract some participants to register for formal fee-paying programmes at the same or other universities and are likely to promote new ways of on-line education.

However, it is still very early days for MOOCs. The quality of the education provision is highly variable, with many courses offering only recordings of lectures, and delivery is particularly difficult in some special fields that require practical classes, research projects or extensive library access. Besides, wider engagement with participants requires very considerable resource. Even limited feedback or examination becomes a major task if there are several thousand students in the class.

Considering the challenges, some people argue MOOCs will soon evaporate (蒸發). But they certainly provide good opportunity for widening higher education, are a means of raising awareness of universities to audiences of tens or hundreds of thousands, and are well worthy of serious consideration.

【要點綜述】 本文是一篇事實類說明文。主要談到有關MOOCs這個教育機構的特點?潛力?面臨的問題及其未來的發展。

71. MOOCs　文章標題題。直接在原文中查找信息。根據第一段第一句及全文中多處出現的“MOOCs”可知答案。

72. no requirement　詞性轉換題。根據第一段的“…no entry qualifications are required…”，將required轉換為名詞，與表格中對應項保持一致。

73. cannot afford　信息整合題。考查信息整合能力。根據第二段的“…who do not have the financial resources to meet the growing costs of university education…”可知，且將have the financial resources to meet the growing costs of變為afford即可。

74. no formal qualifications　信息轉換題。考查信息轉換能力。根據第二段的“…who do not have formal qualifications.”可知，且將do not have變為have no即可。

75. Potentials　段落大意題。考查對一個段落的概括總結。根據第三段的第一句可以直接得出答案。

76. providing　詞性轉換題。考查動詞轉換為動詞的-ing形式。根據該空對應項保持一致的原則，將第三段中的provide變形即可。

77. Challenges　段落大意題。考查對一個段落的概括總結。根據第四段However的轉折和第一句的“…it is still very early days for MOOCs.”可知，該段主要談論的就是其面臨的挑戰。最后一段的第一句中有提示。

78. particularly difficult delivery　信息轉換題。考查信息轉換能力。表格中的對應項是名詞短語，因此將第四段中的delivery is particularly difficult轉換即可。

79. evaporating　詞性轉換題。考查動詞轉換為動詞的-ing形式。根據表格可知，要填動詞的-ing形式。根據最后一段第一句中的soon evaporate轉化而來。

80. considering　詞性轉換題。考查名詞轉換為動詞的-ing形式。根據最后一段的最后一句“…are well worthy of serious consideration.”獲得信息。但是空格后是副詞seriously，可見空格中要填動詞。因此先將consideration變為動詞consider，再根據worth的用法加上-ing即可。

Section B (10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.

“Let's Talk”：The Free Advice Project

A few weeks ago, I took a walk around Washington Square Park. I met all the usual people：street performers, the Pigeon Guy, a group of guitarists singing in harmony. But off to the side, sitting on a bench was a woman doing something vastly different?giving free advice.

A week or two later, I set up an interview with her and we discussed her project at length.

Lisa Podell, 32, started the Free Advice Project this past May. It began as an experiment；she sat in Washington Square Park for a day with a sign that read “Free Advice” as a simple way to reach out to people. Podell was astonished at the strong response.

Podell admits that she was doubtful at first, but now she describes the project as mutually (相互地) beneficial. People learn from her?but she also learns from them. She says that the majority of those who come to her are dealing with some Ptty heavy issues, and they expect her not only to listen, but also provide real answers.

Having worked as a full time teacher and now as an adolescent advisor, Podell believes that talking things out is important in the decision-making process.

Sometimes, people walk around all day, keeping their problems in their own head and thinking about them in the same way. Podell simply tries to provide people with perspective.

I asked if there is a future plan for the Free Advice Project. Podell said she would like to promote it to each public space in New York, which would be carried out by various volunteers across the city.

It was truly inspiring to meet someone with such a big heart, especially in New York?where it is sometimes very hard to find anybody to listen.

【要點綜述】 現代人大多非常繁忙，步行速度快，很難停下腳步來與人交流。但是Lisa Podell卻創立了一種“免費建議工程”來傾聽別人的心聲，給別人提出合理化的建議。

【思路點撥】雖然英文提示只提到四個詞，但是所給信息量卻非常大，它的主要意思是一次比賽的結果是有贏有輸，并就此發表自己的看法。這就決定了這篇文章的體裁是夾敘夾議。因此我們首先應該講述比賽的經過和結果，最后再進行議論。

One possibleversion：

Last week, a football match was held between we Class One and Class Two.

The players from both sides are all excellent football players, so the match went on fiercely at first. At last the result was: the winner was Class Two, and we were the loser.

We didn't win the match, but we didn't lose heart. On the one hand, we think that friendship comes first, and match comes second. On the other hand, since we all tried our best, we had no regret. In our life we may meet many failures. As long as we try our best, there's no need feeling regret for these failures. What's more, we should analyze the reasons of failure to get success for the next time.

In a word, success is important, so is failure, because it's the mother of success.

【范文點評】 本文語言規范、條理清楚、脈絡清晰。過渡性詞匯at first, at last, on the one hand, on the other hand，in a word等的貼切使用使文章意義更連貫、邏輯更嚴密。總體上講不失為一篇優秀的習作。
