28、。B 项 attraction 意为“吸引点”符合题意。其他三项中，A 项 attention 意为“注意力”，C 项 appointment 意为“约会”，D 项 arrangement 意为“安排”，都与题意不符。因此正确答案为 B。2.I dont mind _ the decision as long as it is not too late.（分数：2.00）A.you to delay makingB.your delaying making C.your delaying to makeD.you delay to make解析：mind 和 delay 都跟动名词，作宾语，y

30、at the hotel receptionist_ that guests are registered correctly.（分数：2.00）A.has made sureB.made sureC.must make sureD.make sure 解析：在“It is important that”虚拟语气结构中，that 从句中 should可省略。因此正确答案为D。5.In previous times, when fresh meat was in short_, pigeons were kept by many households as a source of food.（分
31、数：2.00）A.storeB.provisionC.reserveD.supply 解析：本题空格处是说当鲜肉短缺时。固定短语 in short supply 意为“不足的，缺乏的”，符合题意。因此 D项为正确答案。6.It is essential that these application forms _ back as early as possible.（分数：2.00）A.must be sentB.will be sentC.are sentD.be sent 解析：本题是说这些申请表有必要尽早寄回。该句型为“It is essential+从句”的虚拟语气，从句中 shoul

33、只有 D项为正确答案。8.She cooked the meat for a long time so as to make it _ enough to eat.（分数：2.00）A.mildB.slightC.lightD.tender 解析：D 项 tender意为“嫩的；纤弱的；敏感的；温柔的；难对付的”符合题意。其他三项中，A 项mild意为“温和的；暖和的；(炯，酒)味淡的”，B 项 slight 意为 “细长的；脆弱的；轻微的”，C项 light 意为“轻的；容易承担的；少量的：微弱的；柔和的；轻快的；轻松愉快的；清淡的，易消化的”，都与题意不符。因此 D项为正确答案。9.The
34、y are going to have the serviceman _ an electric fan in the office tomorrow.（分数：2.00）A.install B.to installC.to be installedD.installed解析：“have sb.do sth”为一固定结构。因此 A项为正确答案。10.Beer is the most popular drink among male drinkers, _ overall consumption is significantly higher than that of women.（分数：2.00
35、）A.whose B.whichC.thatD.what解析：本题空格处是说男性对啤酒的消费量远远大于女性对啤酒的消费量。此处考查的是定语从句，重点区分关系代词。A 项为正确答案。二、BPart Reading (总题数：20，分数：40.00)11.The low-lying areas refer to those regions that_.（分数：2.00）A.close to the ground level B.one-storey flatC.flat housesD.near to the lowest level of hurricane解析：B、C 两项是指一层平房，主要是
36、强调房子低矮，而“low-lying areas” 主要是指地势低平的地区，因此 A项正确。12.What is the author trying to tell us?（分数：2.00）A.Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain. B.One must know how to attain happiness.C.It is important to make commitments.D.It is pain that leads to happiness.解析：作者的意图出现在第一段第三行。13.If your child has grow
37、n up, you may take the child s things to_.（分数：2.00）A.Childrens Home and Childrens Hospice B.Youth Club and Childrens HomeC.Childrens Hospice and Night ShelterD.Youth Club and Night Shelter解析：可以从文中看出只有 Childrens Home 和 Childrens Hospice 这两个组织需要儿童的玩具或书籍。14.This passage is most probably taken from an a
38、rticle entitled“_“.（分数：2.00）A.Energy ConservationB.House Building CrisisC.Air Pollution Indoors D.Traps in Building Construction解析：最明显的提示为第三段第一行。15.To understand what true happiness is one must_.（分数：2.00）A.have as much fun as possible during ones lifetimeB.make every effort to liberate oneself from
39、painC.put up with pain under all circumstancesD.be able to distinguish happiness from fun 解析：依据文章第一段第一至二行再依据文章最后一段最后一句可以看出要理解真正的幸福是什么就必须把 fun 和 happiness 区分开来。因为两者绝不等同。C 项应该是回答“怎样才能获得真正的幸福?”这一问题。16.Raising children, in the authors opinion, is_.（分数：2.00）A.a moral dutyB.a thankless jobC.a rewarding ta
40、sk D.a source of inevitable pain解析：根据文章第四段开头读者似乎会认为作者的意图是 B“出力不讨好，毫无回报的事”，而实际上，作者真实想法应在 But 之后的句中体现。17.What made the Ouchidas new house a horrible dream?（分数：2.00）A.Lack of fresh air. B.Poor quality of building materials.C.Gas leakage in the kitchen.D.The newly painted walls解析：依据为第二段第一行相关内容。18.If you
41、 have an unwanted recorder player, you may go to_.（分数：2.00）A.the Night ShelterB.Street FoodC.Littleton Youth Club D.Childrens Home解析：我们可以从文中看出 Littleton Youth Club 需要用过的椅子或单放机，所以正确选项是 C。19.Why were cracks in old houses not a big concern?（分数：2.00）A.Because indoor cleanness was not emphasized.B.Becaus
42、e energy used to be inexpensive.

43、furnitureC.equipping the house with stones D.covering windows解析：在飓风到来时的预防措施从原文第三段第六行“They should also try to hurricane- proof their houses by bringing in light-weight furniture and other items from outside and covering windows”可知，包括将轻的家具和物品带入房内、盖住窗户。这两项措施分别是选项的 B和 O，但其中也暗含了选项 A。因为将轻的物品放入房内也就意味着将重的物品
44、带出房间，所以 A也符合。只有 C原文中根本未提及。21.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?_.（分数：2.00）A.How to Avoid Hurricane DamageB.Forecasting HurricanesC.The dangerous Hurricane D.Atlantic Storms解析：本文围绕飓风的形成、飓风的预报、面对飓风的防范措施、飓风的消亡这几方面进行阐述，从总体来看 A、B、D 项都只涉及文章的一个方面，只有 C项全面概括了文章的内容，因为文章主要是讲危险的飓风的
45、。因此正确答案为 C。22.Which of the following statements is true?（分数：2.00）A.A storm surge is a dramatic increase in wind velocity.B.A hurricane watch is more serious than a hurricane warning.C.Falling air pressure is an indicator that the storm is increasing in intensity.

46、eye has arrived.解析：A 项不正确，根据最后一段倒数第三句话“People living in low-lying areas are wise to evacuate their houses because of the storm surge，which is a large rush of water that may come ashore with the storm”可知 storm surge 是指水而不是风。 B 项不正确，根据最后一段开头的描述，飓风可能登陆时先在个较大的可能范围内进行 hurricane watch，然后在可能着陆点 hurricane w
47、arning，可以看出 hurricane warning 比 hurricane watch 更严重。 根据第三段最后一句“People often lose their lives by leaving shelter when the eye has arrived，only to be caught it tremendous winds again when the eye has passed”，当风眼来临时人们如果走出房间会被风眼过去后的大风吹死，所以说在风眼来临时走出房间是不安全的，D 项也不正确。虽然文章中没有直接说，但通过排除法可以知道只有 C项是正确的。23.Accord
48、ing to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because_.（分数：2.00）A.he is reluctant to take on family responsibilities B.he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleC.he finds more fun in dating than in marriageD.he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement解析：参见文章第三段第一至二行。24.The word “accentuate“(Line 4, Para. 3) most probably means“ _ “.（分数：2.00）A.relieveB.accelerateC.worsen D.improve解析：根据该词出现的上文可以判断该词应是“恶化，加剧，变得更糟”之意。25.The eye of the hurricane is_
