3、 routine of sleep and wakefulness, sleeping 10 the day and working at night. 11 it is often the case in industry that shifts are changed every week.

Now general concern is 23 not so much on personal risk but on the growing realization 24 this disease is having a deep impact 25 our society in a number of ways. For one thing, it is 26 financial and other resources. AIDS

9、 patients require long-term care in hospitals and out patient 27 . The Center for Disease Control in Atlanta estimates that hospital 28 for the first 10,000 AIDS patients were about $1.4 billion. The total economic cost to the nation of AIDS cases is estimated to 29 to $6 billion in health care, dis

10、ability, and lost 30 . Private insurers were unprepared for the crisis 31 the invariably fatal disease hits primarily young people. It is becoming increasingly 32 for those in high risk groups to get health and life assurance, and in the 33 of private coverage, public funds must be used 34 , many of

11、 the victims are 35 by disapproving or frightened friends and family, without employment, and 36 need of emotional and psychological support. There is also bad news on the medical 37 . In spite of a stepped-up research program there is no sign of an 38 breakthrough to a cure. Yet the physicians and

12、others continue to work and to hope. Others not directly 39 can help by giving support to public funding for research, hospital and support services. A public 40 to provide care now and an eventual cure for those who suffer is the best response.（分数：20.00）A.causedB.raisedC.resultedD.flaredA.epidemicB

Many argue that it is an effective deterrent to murder, 42 others

16、maintain there is no convincing evidence that the death penalty reduces the number of murders. The principal argument 43 by those opposed to the death penalty, basically, is that it is cruel and inhuman 44 , that it is the mark of a 45 society, and finally that it is of 46 effectiveness as a deterre

17、nt to crime anyway. In our opinion, the death penalty is a 47 evil. Throughout recorded history there have always been those extreme individuals in every society who were 48 of terribly violent crimes such as murder. But some are more extreme than others. For example, it is one thing to 49 the life

18、of another in a fit of blind rage, 50 quite another to coldly plot and 51 the murder of one or more people in the style of a butcher. Thus, murder 52 all other crimes, is a matter of relative degree. While it could be argued with some conviction, that the 53 in the first instance should be merely is

19、olated from society, such should not be the fate of the 54 type murder. The value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime may be open to debate. But the 55 majority of citizens believe that he death penalty protects them. Their belief is 56 by evidence which shows that the death penalty deters

20、murder. 57 , from 1954 to 1963, when the death penalty was 58 imposed in California, the murder rate remained between three and four murders for each 100,000 population. Since 1964 the death penalty has been 59 only once, and the murder rate has risen to 10.4 murders for each 100,000 population. The

21、 sharp climb in the state“s murder rate, which began when executions stopped, is no 60 .（分数：20.00）A.severeB.ambiguousC.controversialD.complicatedA.howeverB.althoughC.andD.whileA.abidedB.approvedC.advancedD.allegedA.measureB.punishmentC.behaviorD.tacticsA.brutalB.civilizedC.democraticD.liberalA.absol

24、oblem in Hong Kong. Over the years many suggestions have been 61 to ease transport difficulties. These include from constructing wider roads and an underground railway 62 to staggering hours for schools to open and close. One official report pressed 63 for working hours to be spaced out to 64 conges

25、tion at 65 periods. In England and other countries this system is called staggering working hours“ because many business centers use it. It is 66 that greater working 67 can be achieved, employees are happier because they can arrange 68 personal working hours, buses and trains can be dispatched at s

26、uitable 69 , and so on. The idea of 70 working days follows on from staggering hour. Land in Hong Kong is extremely expensive, yet 71 and large, offices are empty at weekends and most evenings, too. This appears to be a waste of valuable assets and seems 72 in a place noted for its business 73 . 74

27、, Saturday and Sunday working is not easy. Church-going and family needs can“t be 75 , but it should be remembered that many already work at 76 hours. Nurses, firemen, doctors, pilots, TV stars, 77 , have to come to grips with the problems. It seems 78 to assume that others could do the same. In fac

42、egationB.alternation C.allocationD.alterative解析：解析 allegation 意为“主张，断言”；allocation 意为“分配，安置”，均与文章的意思不符。alternation 意为“交替，轮换”，alternative 是 alternation 的形容词形式，此处应填一个名词，所以 B 是正确答案。A.overB.ofC.with D.in解析：解析 本题考查介词搭配。coincide with 为固定词组，指“一致，相符合”，此处指“通常睡眠时间和白天时间相吻合”。而选项 A，B，D 不能与 coincide 搭配，故选 C。A.thi

43、nkB.considerC.regardD.concern 解析：解析 本题考查名词的辨析。句子的意思是我们目前所关心的是，只有 D 选项 Concern 有“关心，关注”的意思，所以正确答案是 D 选项。A.roundB.circleC.periodD.cycle 解析：解析 本题考查名词的辨析。cycle 与前文保持一致，为“循环、周期”，此处指“我们现在关心在何等程度上，循环可以改善”。round 意为“圆，圆形物”；circle 意为“圆”；period 意为“一段时间”，所以选项 D 为正确答案。A.forB.thatC.which D.as解析：解析 本题考查“介词+关系代词”引导

44、的定语从句的用法。关系代词在定语从句中作介词宾语时，从句常由“介词+关系代词”引导，如：The school in which he once studied is very famous. 此句的句子结构是：The ease(主语)+with.(介词+关系代词引导的定语从句)+is.，所以正确答案为 C 选项。A.matter B.troubleC.difficultyD.problem解析：解析 本题考查名词词义辨析。a matter of 为固定词组，意为“(涉及的)问题”；trouble 意为“麻烦”；difficulty 指“困境”；problem 指“难题，困难”，所以选 A。A.

45、reacts toB.calls for C.invitesD.asks解析：解析 本题考查对动词词义的掌握。call for 意为“需要，值得”，此处指“自动化需要机器昼夜不停地工作”。react to 意为“反应”；invite 意为“邀请”；ask 意为“询问”，所以选 B。A.requestsB.demandsC.spendsD.takes 解析：解析 本题考查对固定搭配的掌握。It takes some time to do sth.为固定句型；而选项A，B，C 在句中不能以 It 作为形式主语，故选项 D 为正确答案。A.regularB.reversed C.returnedD.

46、former解析：解析 本题是形容词辨析题。reversed 表示“反转的、颠倒的”；此处指“通常人们要花五天到一周的时间来适应一个相反的循环”。regular 意为“有规律的”；returned 意为“回的”；former 意为“早期的”，所以正确答案是 B 选项。A.during B.afterC.onD.with解析：解析 本题考查介词的用法。句子的意思是说在白天睡觉晚上工作，此处应该选择 during，因为during the day 表示在这一天的时间里，表示的是持续性的一天，所以选 A。表示具体的星期、日、月应该用 on，如：on that day, on Friday, on M

47、arch，表示年用 in，如：in 1999，但是如果年月日一起就用 on，如：on the 1st，1999。A.In comparisonB.In a wordC.Unfortunately D.Therefore解析：解析 本题考查对上下文的理解。上文提到“颠倒作息时间大约需要五天到一个星期，而后文又说在工厂里这种轮班工作经常是每周一换的”。工人们刚调整过来的作息时间又得换回去，这显然是“不幸地”。in comparison 意为“比较”；in a word 意为“总之”；therefore 意为“因此，所以”，意思上不符合原文，所以选 C。A.meanB.meaningC.meantD

48、.means 解析：解析 本题考查谓语动词。此句的句子结构是 This(主语)+谓语+that，主语是 this，而且整篇文章用的都是一般现在时，所以这里就只能选则 means，所以正确答案是 D 选项。A.than B.thenC.whenD.as解析：解析 本题为语法题，考查连词的固定搭配用法。no sooner.than.表示“一就”。而选项 B，C，D 不能与 no sooner 搭配。此处指“这就意味着他还没适应一个循环，就成为另一个循环”，所以正确答案是 A 选项。A.asB.whileC.so that D.though解析：解析 本题考查对上下文的理解及连词的用法。前后文为因果

49、关系，此处指“所以他的睡眠、工作效率都不高”，所以选 so that。A.happilyB.easilyC.goodD.efficiently 解析：解析 本题考查对上下文的理解及副词的理解和运用。此处意为“作息时间经常性的颠倒当然会降低工作和睡眠的效率”；选项 A，B，C 意思上不符合原文，故选项 D 为正确答案。A.nicerB.longer C.betterD.shorter解析：解析 本题考查对上下文的理解。这里的 a month 相对于前面的 a week 当然时间较长一点，所以选 B。A.However B.SimilarlyC.In shortD.So解析：解析 本题考查对上下文的理解。前文提到了较长的转换期，这相对于一个星期来说会好一些，但它同样有不足之处。前后为转折关系。而选项 B，C，D 都不表示转折关系，所以选 A。A.favouriteB.temporaryC.normal D.new解析：解析 本题考查形容词的用法。normal 为“正常的”，此处指“在周末回到他们原来那种白天工作晚上睡觉的常规作息时间”。favorite 意为“喜爱的”，temporary 意为“短暂的，暂时的”，均与原文意思不符，而且这句话里有 go back
