Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18.The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. Davids firm releases(推出) two new games for the fast throwing puter market each month.But Davids biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage(抵押贷款), or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool-based pany four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a puter shop. I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs, he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.Unfortunately, puting was not part of our studies at school, he said. But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway. David added: I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.8.

C【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了一位16岁的电脑天才David，因为学会了电脑编程被一家游戏公司录取，赚得很高的工资。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第一句puter programmer David Jones earns 35,000 a year designing new puter games可知16岁的David每年可以挣到35,000，而他的同龄人仍然在上学。他们之间的差别就在于收入。故A项正确。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第一句he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card(信用卡)可知没有银行给他办理信用卡，因为他年龄还不到18岁。无法办理信用卡是他面临的主要问题。故C项正确。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段第四句I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs, he said.可知正是因为他之前写了一些电脑程序，所以公司老板才会雇佣他。故B项正确。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段前两句Unfortunately, puting was not part of our studies at school, he said. But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time.可知学校里没有计算机课程，他只好在空闲时间自学电脑程序。于是他决定离开学校，也就是说他决定离开学校的原因是学校对他没有吸引力了。故C项正确。DBefore a new type of airplane goes into service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more important than all the others.The first is called the tank test. A modem airplane must fly very high in the sky. Air must be pumped into the plane so that the passengers can breathe. The metal structure (结构)of the plane has to be very strong for this reason. When the plane is filled with air, the air presses against the skin of the plane inside. The pressure (压力) on a small window is like a huge foot that is trying to get out. If a small part of the plane were to fail, the plane would explode in the sky. To test the structure of the plane, the plane is lowered into a huge tank or container of water. Then it is filled with air. Vne pressure inside the plane is greater than it ever will be when it is high up in the air. Finally, there is an explosion. This does not cause so much damage inside the water tank as it would anywhere else. Engineers can discover which part of the plane has broken. Then that part is made stronger.The most dangerous test happens when the new plane is going through test flights in the air. The test pilot must find out exactly what happens when the engines (发动机) are all shut off at once. The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilot s job to find out how he can get control of the plane again. These two tests are examples of how planes are made safe before they ever carry passengers.12. By doing the tank test, the engineers can find out _.A. the amount of air in the planeB. the power of the airplane enginesC. the. pressure inside and outside the planeD. the strength of the plane structure13. What will happen to the plane under the tank test?A. It will be broken.B. It will be made stronger.C. It will be filled with water.D. It will be tested by pilots,14. According to the text, why are test flights most dangerous?A. The plane may explode in the air.B. The pilot may lose control of the plane.C. The engines may be damaged.D. Too much air may get into the plane.15. What might be the most suitable title for the text?A. How Airplanes Are Made and TestedB. The Importance of Flying SafelyC. The Danger of Testing AirplanesD. Two Important Tests on Airplanes【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. D【解析】本文是一篇说明文，机在投入使用之前，要经历一系列的测试，其中有两项测试特别重要，文章分别对着两项测试进行了详细说明。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后两句Engineers can discover which part of the plane has broken. Then that part is made stronger.可知通过 tank test，研究人员可以发现飞机结构的缺点，进行补弱。也就是说 tank test可以找出飞机的优点和弱点。故D项正确。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第四句Finally, there is an explosion.可知 tank test最终会让飞机爆炸了。故A项正确。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段23句The plane begins to fall like a stone. It is the pilot s job to find out how he can get control of the plane again.可知在试飞的过程中，试飞员要关闭发动机，飞机就像是石头一样下落，然后试飞员再找到控制飞机的方法。也就是说试飞最大的危险是非吸烟可能会对飞机失去控制。故B项正确。【15题详解】主旨大意题。文章第一段Before a new type of airplane goes into service, every part of it is tested again and again. But there are two tests that are more important than all the others.文章第一段提及飞机在投入使用之前，要经历一系列的测试，其中有两项测试特别重要。在2、3段里分别对着两项测试进行了详细说明。可知本文主要关于飞机的两项重要测试。故D项正确。第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。Haveyoueverhadawonderfulideaandthoughtitwouldmakeagreatinvention，butdidntknowwhattodonext？_16_-TheywillhelpyoumakeyourdreamsetrueandbeeafamousinventorThefirstthingthatyoushoulddoisdosomeresearchontheInternettoseeifanyoneelsehasinventeditIfnot ，youshouldsearchthroughtheUSPatent（专利）informationto seeifapatentwasevercreatedforyourtypeofinvention_17_.Theeasiestthingto doisworkingwithanagency（代理机构）thatcanhelpyoutomakeyourdreamsarealityItcanhelpyoupresentyourideasandgetyourproducttotherightpaniesOne agencythatisveryreputable（声誉好的）isLambertinMinnesota _18_.Iftheythinkyourproductismarketable（有销路的），theywillhelpyoutogetittothe rightpanyCalltheagencyandmakeanappointmentYouwillwantto bring inamodelofyourinventionandapletedescriptionofyourideas_19_Thenwhenyoumeetwiththem,youcanpresentitandtheywilltellyouhowmarketableitisIftheydecidetohelpyou,theywillworktopresentittodifferentpaniesandhelpyoutogotothenextstepOnceyourinventionhasbeensoldtoalargepany，getreadytogetthebenefitsofbeingthenextgreatinventor_20_ .ButthebenefitsareworththewaitAItmaytakeayearortwoBIfnot，gotothenextstepCYouwillfindsomethingnewontheInternetDYouwillbethenextinventorEWritedownexactlyaboutyourinventionFHerearesomestepsthatyoucantakeGTheyofferfreeadviceforgoodideas【答案】16. F 17. B 18. G 19. E 20. A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，很多人有好点子，但是不知道如何把好点子变成伟大的发明，文章中对此提出了几点建议。【16题详解】根据本段第一句可知很多人有很棒的想法认为自己的想法会成为伟大的发明，但是不知道该如何去做。横线句要把上下文串联起来，F项“Herearesomestepsthatyoucantake下面是你可以采取的步骤”承上启下，把本段第一句和文章下面的内容连接在一起。【17题详解】本段告诉我们首先要对自己的发明项目进行研究，查看是否已经有人已经发明出类似的物品。如果没有，查一下相关的专利情况。如果没有类似的专利被申请，那么你就可以继续做下一步工作。故B项“Ifnot， gotothenextstep”符合上下文语境。【18题详解】根据横线前句One agencythatisveryreputable（声誉好的）is LambertinMinnesota可知LambertinMinnesota是一家声誉非常好的代理机构。本句应该介绍这一结构的良好服务，故G项“Theyofferfreeadviceforgoodideas他们会为好点子提供免费服务”与之对应。【19题详解】横线前句可知你和代理机构联系好了以后，你要带着模型以及对这个好点子的叙述。最好是把你的想法写下来，然后与对方交流。故E项“Writedownexactlyaboutyourinvention”与上下文语境一致。【20题详解】横线前句告诉我们如果你的发明被某一公司购买，那么你只要等待发明给你带来的好处即可。虽然等待的时间可能会比较长，但这样的等待是值得的。故A项“Itmaytakeayearortwo”符合上下文语境。【点睛】本文设空在段尾。我们可以从以下七点考虑：(1)空白前的一句或两句是重点语句，重点阅读以锁定关键词。(2)通常是结论、概括性语句。注意在选项中查找表示结果、结论、总结等的信号词，如therefore, as a result, thus, hence, in short, to sum up, to conclude, in a word等词语，选项中也可发现前文的同义词句。(3)与前文是转折或对比关系。此时要注意在选项中查找表示转折、对比的关联词，同时注意选项中所讲内容是否与前文在同一主题上形成对立、对比关系。(4)与前文是并列或排比关系。在这种情况下，通常是该段落要求补全说明本段主题的其他细节，因此根据段落一致性原则，在原文和选项中找到相关的特征词，通常在选项中会出现表示并列/递进关系的关联词或与前文类似的句式结构，或出现同义词等其他信号线索。前面的一句与正确答案的第一句是紧密相连的。要特别注意阅读这样相连的两句，通常会找到关键的线索词句。(5)所选答案是引出下一段的内容。如果在选项中找不出与前文之间的关联，此时可考虑与下一段开头是否有一定的衔接。认真阅读下一段开头几句，看是否与选项的最后一句紧密连接起来。(6)如果第一段的段尾是空白，要认真阅读，看此处是细节还是主题。通常文章第一段要提出文章的主题，如果在段尾提出主题，会用一些信号词如转折词引出来，正确答案中应有这样的特征词。第二部分: 英语知识运用(共两节, 满分45 分)第一节: 完形填空(共20小题; 每小题1.5 分, 满分30 分)TheyearIwenttocollegewasaverydifficulttransition（过渡期）forme._21_is probablytruewithmanypeople，Igotquitehomesickand_22_thoughtaboutgoing home.Althoughthe_23_timeformanystudentsisgetting_24_fromhome，mymailbox(邮箱)wasfrequently_25_OnedaywhenIwenttothemailbox,therewasapostcard_26_outatmeIsatdowntoreadit,_27_ anotefromsomeonebackhome_28_Ibecame increasinglypuzzledas_29_postcardswerelikethis；Itwasafullnewsreportabouta womannamedMabelandhernewbornbabyItookthecardbacktomyroomand_30_ aboutitSeveraldayslater,I_31_anotherpostcard，thisone_32_newsaboutMaybelline，MabelscousinSoonafter，anothercardarrivedandthenanother, _33_fullofnewsof differentpeopleIbeganto _34_lookforwardtothenextOne，_35_toseewhatthisauthorwouldeupwith_36_Iwasnever_37_Finally，thecards_38_ing，rightabout thetimeIhadbeguntofeel_39_ aboutcollegelife.Theyhadbeensuchahappydistraction（调剂）thatIhave _40_allthepostcardsandstillbringthemouttoreadwheneverIneed alift21.

D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者进入大学伊始，非常想家，这时不断收到了来自陌生人的明信片，正是这些明信片帮助作者战胜了思乡之情，适应了大学生活。【21题详解】考查定语从句。关系代词as指代后面一句话的内容，引导定语从句并在句中做主语，意为“正如”。句意：正如很多人一样，我很想家经常想逃回家里。ACD三项不能引导定语从句。【22题详解】考查上下文串联。上文告诉我们作者上大学时很想家，使用才会经常想回家。故副词“often经常”符合上下文语境。【23题详解】考查常识。对于想家的人来说最开心的事情就是收到家人的来信，作者也一样。故D项“happiest”符合语境。【24题详解】考查上下文串联。根据下文“mymailbox”可知与邮件信件有关，对于想家的人来说最开心的事情就是收到家人的来信，但是作者的邮箱总是空的。故C项正确、。【25题详解】考查形容词辨析。A. empty空的；B. full满的；C. closed关闭的；D. open开着的；对于想家的人来说最开心的事情就是收到家人的来信，但是作者的邮箱总是空的。所以他更加难过。故A项正确。【26题详解】考查固定短语。短语stare at盯着看；作者打开邮箱的时候，里面有一张明信片躺在邮箱里，似乎盯着作者看。其余三个动词不能和介词at连用。故C项正确。【27题详解】考查动词辨析。A. describing描述；B. considering考虑，认为；C. expecting期待，预料；D. enjoying享受，喜欢；我坐下来看明信片，预料这个明信片是我的家人寄给我的。但是后来发现这张明信片并非来自家人，而是一个陌生人寄给我的。故C项正确。【28题详解】考查上下文串联。作者原来预料这个明信片是我的家人寄给我的。但是后来发现这张明信片并非来自家人，而是一个陌生人寄给我的。上下文是转折关系，故A项正确。【29题详解】考查上下文串联。根据下句可知这张明信片来自陌生人，与我家人的明信片并不一样。所以使用否定词no表示没有明信片和它相似。故B项正确。【30题详解】考查动词辨析。A. joked开玩笑；B. talked交谈；C. cared关心；在意；D. forgot忘记；我把这张明信片拿了回去就忘记了，几天以后又收到了另外一张明信片。故D项正确。【31题详解】考查动词辨析。A. mailed邮寄；B. accepted接受；C. received收到；D. wrote写；我把这张明信片拿了回去就忘记了，几天以后又收到了另外一张明信片。故C项正确。【32题详解】考查动词辨析。动词A. delivering投递，发表；B. demanding要求；C. discovering发现D. developing发展；形成；这一次的明信片是关于Maybelline的事情，本句中动词deliver表示“发表”，指在这种明信片里所写的内容。故A项正确。【33题详解】考查上下文串联。后来作者又陆续收到了很多明信片，每张明信片都是关于不同的人的信息。所以使用each指每张不同的明信片。故B项正确。【34题详解】考查副词辨析。A. nearly几乎；B. possibly可能地；C. usually通常；D. really真的；每次都收到明信片，现在我真得期待着收到下一份。D项表示作者期待的心情，对下一张明信片里面所写的内容非常感兴趣。故D项正确。【35题详解】考查词义辨析。A. promising有前途的；B. surprised惊讶的；C. pretending假装；D. interested对感兴趣；现在我真得期待着收到下一份，对下一张明信片里面所写的内容非常感兴趣。故D项正确。【36题详解】考查上下文串联。根据上文可知现在我真得期待着收到下一份，对下一张明信片里面所写的内容非常感兴趣。所以使用next表示下一张明信片。故C项正确。【37题详解】考查形容词辨析。A. disappointed失望的；B. frightened害怕的；C. excited兴奋的；D. pleased高兴的；我一直期待着下一张明信片，我从来都没有失望过。不断地有明信片寄过来，直到我不再想家。故A项正确。【38题详解】考查动词辨析。A. continued继续；B. stopped停止；C. started开始；D. avoided避免；就在我感觉到大学生活很容易的时候，就没有明信片寄过来了。由此可见有好心人在帮助我战胜思乡之情。故B项正确。【39题详解】考查上下文串联。在我感觉到大学生活很容易的时候，就没有明信片寄过来了。本句使用easy与第一段对应，指我适应了大学生活，不再想家里。故B项正确。【40题详解】考查动词辨析。A. lost丢失，迷路；B. collected收集，采集；C. torn撕坏；D. saved挽救，节约，保存；我把这些明信片都保存了起来，感觉需要的时候，就会把它们拿出来看。这些明信片对作者有很大影响，所以他把它们都保存好。故D项正确。【点睛】现在的完形填空很少直接考查语法题，但本文直接考查了定语从句的用法。完型填空中有一部分考题是语法题，要求学生熟练掌握和运用语法知识，做出正确选择。语法包括时态、语气、非谓语动词、关系代词和关系副词、分句、主动被动及惯用法等语法现象。a)时态：对完型填空中的时态题的判断，可以根据表示时间的信息词来判断，也可以根据上下文提供的信息来判断。表时间的词有： since,before,after,already,everysince,foralongtime,yesterday,in1992,now。b)语气：考生认为困难的是对虚拟语气试题的判断。此类试题一般分两种情况，一种情况是带有表虚拟条件句或短句的词语在问题句中，如without，if等，另一种需要根据上下文或逻辑关系来判断。c)非谓语动词：非谓语动词各自具有不同的语法功能和使用范围。分词作定语和表示原因、时间和伴随状语；不定式作定语和表示目的和结果状语。动名词可以做宾语、主语、表语或介词宾语。因此做非谓语动词的试题，要注意分析其在句中的语法作用，另外还要注意一些词的固定用法，牢固掌握必须跟动名词的动词和必须跟动词不定式的动词也是很必要的。d)替代词：英语中替代词很多，既可以用来替代单词，也可以
