解析:

1. 答案    C?

解析    这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者介绍了他第一次工作的经历给他以后的生活和工作带来了很大的影响。这里表示作者的父亲在一个商场“租”(rent)了个地方,这从第二段出现的“...gave Dad a  3  on his rent...”可知答 案为C项。其他几个选项不符合文意。

2. 答案     C?

解析    从下文中的“Mr.Ben’s Coiffure”可知这是理发店的名字,而不是标志或招牌,所以A、 B、D不对。

3. 答案    A?

3. 解析    从后面清理停车场可知,商场的主人应是为作者父亲的这一做法给他应付的租金“打折”,而不应是惩罚,所以D项不对;B、C含义

  不对。

4. 答案   D?解析   从下文中的“...which meant getting up at 3 am.”和最后一段的“...I have never forgotten those nights in the parking lot.”可判断出答案。

5. 答案    C?

解析    根据宾语rubbish及下文的“...picked up  litter by hand.”可知答案。其他选项与文意不符。?

6. 答案     A?

解析     他们是在清理垃圾,自然是把垃圾桶倒空 (empty),所以A项正确,其他选项不合文意。

7.答案    D?

解析   这里用的是It takes (sb.) some time to do sth.这一固定句型。

8. 答案    D?

解析    从上文“...getting up at 3 am.”可知他们是夜间干活,所以干完活后作者应该是感到困,所以是在车里睡觉。短文中没有提到作者干活不高兴的事,所以A、C不对;B项不合文意。

9.答案    B?

解析    根据“I did this for two years...”和“...I learned there have lasted a

lifetime.”可判断用连词but。

10. 答案    A?

解析    这里表示作者获得了强烈的职业道德,而不是喜欢或者想要。acquire获得。

11. 答案     B?

解析    这里表示作者在小时候通过做这些活儿,了解到了平衡生活中各种利益的重要性,所以B项正确。

12. 答案    D?

解析   句意为:这种经历在我高中毕业那年对我起了帮助作用。work奏效,有效果。

13. 答案   B?

解析   由上文的“...during my senior year of high school...”可知用when。

14.答案    C?

解析     由下文的“...a full load of college-? prep courses.”可知用take,take...course意

为“参加……课程的学习”。

15. 答案    A?

解析    根据下文内容可知:努力的工作得到了回报。pay off得到回报;take off起飞;脱下;lay off下岗;kick off开球。

16. 答案    D?

解析   句意为:得到学位。accept指主观接受, 而receive指客观上收到、得到。

17. 答案    B?

解析   根据后文的“...a big Los Angeles law firm...”和上文的“...graduate degrees in

law and business from Harvard.”可知答案为B项。?

18.  答案    B?

解析    该空之前提到的都是作者所从事过的工作,所以B项正确。

19. 答案    C?

解析   根据上文的“...I have never forgotten those nights in the parking lot.”这是作者

的一种经历,所以选C项。

20. 答案     D?

解析    根据横线后的for,可判断出选provide,其他的选项不能和for连用。

阅读下列材料, 并从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E、F)中选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

The people below traveled abroad. Read the following stories and decide what problem each traveler experienced while traveling.

_______ David got lost in an isolated place. To make matter worse, he had an accident and couldn’t walk freely. So he was in great need of timely help.

______ Paul had to buy a hamburger and ate it in the park instead of eating his mother’s delicious chicken, with which he couldn’t go through the customs(海关).

_____ Ann was stopped at the customs because she was carrying drugs without a doctor’s prescription. How regretted she was not to have done that!

_____ Sally offended some of the people in the town she was visiting by wearing inappropriate clothes. She should have found out about local customs and followed them.

______ Jack didn’t obtain a transit card when he changed planes at an airport, which made him very worried. There was no doubt that he was not allowed to get on board.

A  My mother was worried about me. She cooked me all my favorite dishes and put them into a box to take with me on my journey. But the customs officer inspected all the plant and animal products at the airport. Unfortunately it was illegal for me to bring into the country the kind of food my mother had given me and so it all had to be thrown away.

B  It was very hot so I put on some shorts and a T-shirt to go sightseeing. I hadn’t gone very far when I found everyone was looking at me, and they didn’t seem friendly to me. One woman even spat on me as I walked past. I decided to get off the crowded streets and so I turned down a small, quiet street.

C  During the four-day walking tour, I was amazed by mountain scenery and the ancient ruins we passed on our hike. On the last day, we arrived at the ruins of Machu Picchu in time to see the sunrise over the Andes. I spent the day visiting the ruins of that ancient Inca city before catching the train back to the capital city of the country.

D  When I got off the plane at the first airport, I saw someone handing out cards to some of the passengers, but I didn’t know what they were for, so I didn’t take one. When I tried to board the second plane they asked for my transit card, which I didn’t have. I was worried they were going to send me back to London.

E  I had been walking for about an hour when suddenly I slipped and fell down a riverbank. I hurt my ankle and couldn’t stand up. I didn’t know how I could get back to the village. I hadn’t told anyone where I was going, so no one would know where to look for me when they realized I was missing.

F  When I arrived at my destination, a customs officer at the airport looked in my bag and found the pills in a small box. He wanted to know what the pills were for and why they weren’t in their proper bottle with my name and the doctor’s name on it. I explained that the bottle had been too big and heavy. Then he wanted to know if I had a letter from my doctor explaining about the pills.
