31、ld rather his daughter _ in the same office.（分数：2.00）A.had not workedB.not to workC.does not workD.did not work 解析：本题考查的是“would rather”的用法，其后跟从句中谓语用过去时。因此 D项为正确答案。2._ evidence that language-acquiring ability must be stimulated.（分数：2.00）A.If beingB.It isC.There is D.There being解析：分析句子结构，如果填上 A项或 D项，句
32、子缺乏谓语。因此 C项为正确答案。3.The early pioneers had to _ many hardships to settle on the new land.（分数：2.00）A.go along withB.go back onC.go through D.go into解析：C 项“go through 经受；经历；仔细检查，搜查；参加，履行”符合题意，如：These countries have gonethrough too many wars (这些国家饱经战火)。其他三项中，A 项 go along with 意为“(陪)一起去；赞同；附和”，B 项 go bac
33、k on 意为“背叛：违背，毁(约)”，D 项 go in to 意为“进入；加入；探究；进入状态”，都与题意不符。因此 C项为正确答案。4.Although Anne is happy with her success she wonders_ will happen to her private life.（分数：2.00）A.thatB.what C.itD.this解析：本题空格处是说她想知道她的生活中会发生什么事。根据句意当选 what 。因此 B 项为正确答案。5.Without proper lessons, you could_ a lot of bad habits when
34、 playing the piano.（分数：2.00）A.keep upB.pick up C.draw upD.catch up解析：本题空格处是说你会染上很多坏习惯。B 项 pick up 意为“通过实践学会，染上，买到某物，听到(闲话)等，取或收集某物”符合题意。其他三项中，A 项 keep up 意为“保持、坚持，维持，使某物不落下，使某物处于高水平”，C 项 draw up 意为“草拟，停住，逼近，追上，整队”，D 项 catch up 意为“赶上某人，达到与某人相同的境界”，都与题意不符。因此 B项为正确答案。6.The newcomers found it impossible
35、 to _ themselves to the climate sufficiently to make permanent homes in the new country.（分数：2.00）A.suitB.adapt C.regulateD.coordinate解析：本题空格处是说无法使他们自己完全适应气候。“adapt oneself to”构成固定词组，意为“使某人适应(新的环境、气候、国土等)”。因此 B项为正确答案。7.Wouldnt you rather your child _ to bed early?（分数：2.00）A.goB.went C.would goD.goes解
36、析：本题结构为“would rather/had rather+从句”的虚拟语气，从句中谓语用过去式。因此 B项为正确答案。8.If I hadnt stood under the ladder to catch you when you fell, you _ now.（分数：2.00）A.wouldnt be smiling B.couldnt have smiledC.wont smileD.didnt smile解析：条件从句和主句发生在不同的时间，必须使用不同的时态。该句前半句发生在过去，后半句发生在现在，所以选择 A。9.The project_ by the end of 200
37、0, will expand the citys telephone network to cover 1 000 000 users.（分数：2.00）A.accomplishedB.being accomplishedC.to be accomplished D.having been accomplished解析：本题空格处是说这个到 2000年末将被完成的工程。分词和不定式都可做定语，根据时间状语“by the end of 2000”，可知该定语应表示将来完成。因此 C项为正确答案。10.Although many people view conflict as bad, confl
38、ict is sometimes useful _ it forces people to test the relative merits of their attitudes and behaviors.（分数：2.00）A.by whichB.to whichC.in that D.so that解析：本题空格处是说冲突有时是有用的，因为它促使人们来检验他们的意见和行为的相对的价值。本题考查的是复合连词。从句中不缺任何成分，可先排除 A、B 项。根据句意应构成原因从句，不是表示目的，排除 D项。因此 C项为正确答案。二、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)1
39、1.The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to_.（分数：2.00）A.review the decisions of referees at the 1998 World CupB.analyse the causes of errors made by football referees C.set a standard for football refereeingD.reexamine the rules for football refereeing解析：依据为第一段第三行。12.The findings of th

42、当 referees 与 incident 靠得越近时，就越可能出现误判，而当 officials 判罚正确时。他们距离犯规地点平均为 17米。显然，officials 就是指上文的 referees。14.What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?（分数：2.00）A.The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 35.B.Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a fo
43、otball referee.

44、 1998 World CupC.quite unexpected D.as high as in a standard match解析：主要依据在第三段。注意“convened to a standard match of 90 minutes”，是指“转换成 90分钟的标准比赛”。提示问为“a remarkably high number”文章并未涉及 A、 B、D 项。16.According to the author, by interacting with people who study liberal-arts, engineering students can_.（分数：2.
45、00）A.balance engineering and the liberal-artsB.receive guidance in their careersC.become noble idealistsD.broaden their horizons 解析：文章第二段第四行正是 D项(拓展视野)的意思。17.The authors experience shows that he was_.（分数：2.00）A.creativeB.ambitiousC.unrealistic D.irrational解析：四选项的意思分别为：A“创造性的”，B“雄心勃勃的”，C“不切实际的”， D“非理
46、性的”。作者由雄心勃勃，与众不同，理想化的选择开始，发现现实中并不容易实现，并不成功。可见这种做法是不切实际的。18.The author chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts university because he_.（分数：2.00）A.wanted to be an example of practicality and rationalityB.intended to be a combination of engineer and humanist C.wanted to coordinate engineering
47、 with liberal-arts courses in collegeD.intended to be a sensible student with noble ideals解析：A 项只是一般工科学生的做法，D 项只谈及了一方面，C 项有一定的干扰度，但只是表层。根据文章第二段、第三段，应选择 B项。19.In the eyes of the author, a successful engineering student is expected_.（分数：2.00）A.to have an excellent academic recordB.to be wise and matur
48、eC.to be imaginative with a value system to guide himD.to be a technical genius with a wide vision 解析：最直接的提示应该在第三段第二行，所以答案当选 D项。A、C 项只分别涉及了其中的一方面，B 项与问题无关，均应排除。20.The word “they“ in “together they threaten to confuse.“ (Line 3, Par（分数：2.00）A.5) refers toA. engineering and the liberal-artsB. reality and noble idealsC. flexibility and a value systemD. practicality and rationality 解析：判断指代关系。文章第五段第二行、第三行的“they”都是指代前文的“engineering and the liberal-arts。”21.The author says that in some hot and dry areas it is advisable to _.（分数：2.00）A.build big lakes to store wate
