详解:
1.在meet前加to     考查动词不定式    此处在句中作宾语补足语,应使用动词不定式形式;故在meet前加to.  
2.leaving改为left     考查过去分词    此处在句中作定语修饰前面的名词time,由于动词leave与该名词构成动宾关系;故用left. 
3.去掉 arrived之前的had    考查时态   此处用在连词before引导的时间状语从句中,陈述的是过去发生的事情,应使用一般过去时;故去掉 arrived之前的had.
4.sleep改为asleep    考查固定短语   fall asleep意为:睡着,入睡;故用asleep.
5.eye改为eyes    考查名词的单复数   此处指的是:他睁开他的双眼,故用复数名词eyes.
6.a改为the   考查定冠词   此处表示特指上文提到的那位妇女;故用定冠词the.
7.On改为In/After   考查固定短语    in/after a short while 意为:过了一小会儿;故用In/After.
8.them改为it    考查人称代词   此处用在动词 put 之后作宾语,指代的是前面提到的那张纸条;故用it.
9.late改为later   考查固定短语   a few minutes later意为:几分钟后;故用later.
10.that改为what    考查句意理解以及特殊疑问词   此处用在宾语从句中,表达的是:几点了,应使用what time提问;故用what.

7.If you know exactly what you want,the best way to get a job is to get specialized training.A recent report shows that companies like graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.
    That's especially true of booming fields that are challenging for workers.At Cornell's School of Hotel Administration,for example,bachelor's degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers with salaries ranging from the high teens to the low 20s and plenty of chances for rapid advancement.Large companies especially like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.But in the long run,too much specialization does not pay off.Business,which has been flooded with MBAs,no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval.The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially,but the impact of a degree washes out after five years.
As further evidence of the erosion of corporate faith in specialized degrees,Michigan State's Scheetz cites a pattern in corporate hiring practices.Although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires,they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management.This sounds like a formal statement that you approve of the liberal-arts(文科) graduate.Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have:writing and communication skills,organizational skills,open-mindedness and adaptability,and the ability to analyze and solve problems.David Birch,manager of the Boston Red Sox,says that he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree."I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things,"says Birch.
For a liberal-arts degree,students focus on some basic courses that include literature history,mathematics,economics,science,human behavior and a computer course or two.With these useful and important courses,you can feel free to specialize,"A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace,"says Scheetz.

8.Arriving in Sydney on his own from India,my husband,Rashid,stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.
During the first week of his stay,he went out one day to do some shopping.He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone.He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers,including his passport.
He reported the case to the police and then sat there,lost and lonely in a strange city,thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.
Late in the evening,the phone rang.It was a stranger.He was trying to pronounce my husband's name and was asking him a lot of questions.Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶) that had been left out on the footpath.
My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers.Her parents had carefully sorted them out,although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents.At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.
That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people.We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.

21.What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?B
A.Go shopping.B.Find a house.C.Join his family.D.Take a vacation.
22.The girl's parents got Rashid's phone number fromC.
A.a friend of his family                        B.a Sydney policeman
C.a letter in his papers                        D.a stranger in Sydney
23.What does the underlined word"restored"in the last paragraph mean?D
A.Showed.B.Sent out.C.Delivered.D.Gave back.
24.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?C
A.From India to Australia.   B.Living in a New Country.
C.Turning Trash to Treasure. D.In Search of New Friends.
5.There's no doubt that our character has a profound effect on our future.What we must remember,however,is not merely how powerful character is in influencing our fate (命运),but how powerful we are in shaping our own character and,therefore,our own fate.Character may determine our fate,but character is not determined by fate.
It's a common mistake to think of character as something that is fully formed and fixed very early in life.It calls to mind old proverbs like"A leopard can't change its spots"and"You can't teach an old dog new tricks."
This perspective that our character is etched in stone is supported by a great deal of modern psychology emphasizing self-acceptance.As Popeye says,"I am what I am."The hidden message is:Don't expect me to be more,better,or different.
Ultimately,these views of humanity totally undervalue the lifelong potential for growth that comes with the power of reflection and choice.
How depressing it would be to believe that we can't choose to be better,more honest,more respectful,more responsible,and more caring.None of us should give up the personal seeking to improve our character.Not because we're bad,we don't have to be sick to get better,but because we're not as good as we could be.
There are so many things in life we can't control,whether we're beautiful or smart,whether we had good parents or bad,whether we grew up with affirmation or negation.It's inspiring to remember that nothing but moral will power is needed to make us better.
No,it isn't easy.But if we make a great effort to become more aware of the habits of heart and mind that drive our behavior,we can begin to place new emphasis on our higher values so that we become what we want our children to think we are.
32.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3mean?C
A.is carved in the stone with knives
B.is controlled by oneself
C.can't be changed easily
D.can be better and different
33.Which of the following would the writer agree with?A
A.We should value our lifelong potential for growth.
B.We must attach importance to self-acceptance.
C.A leopard can't change its spots.
D.We should make choices constantly.
34.What do we need to improve ourselves according to the author?B
A.Our smartness.
B.Our will power.
C.Our fate.
D.Our character.
35.What is the best title of the passage?A
A.We shape our own character.
B.Character determines our fate.
C.Character can be formed and fixed.
D.Changing our character isn't easy.
12.A team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly.The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech systems.Designed to do what a fly does naturally,the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly.Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.
"It's extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components(元件),"said Robert Wood,the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade.A few years ago,his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components."The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,"he said.
They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly."The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components,each of which individually has to perform well,but then has to be matched well to everything it's connected to,"said Wood.The flight device was built into a set of power,computation,sensing and control systems.Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.
While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small,off-board power source,the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source,so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites,in farmers'fields or on the battlefield."Basically it should be able to take off,land and fly around,"he said.
Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale.Yet,the power,sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications."You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions,you know,to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals,but using these robots instead,"he said."So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day-to-day basis."
28.The difficulty the team of engineers met with while making the robotic fly was thatC.
A.they had no model in their mind
B.they did not have sufficient time
C.they had no ready-made components
D.they could not assemble the components
29.It can be inferred from paragraphs 3and 4that the robotic flyB.
A.consists of a flight device and a control system
B.can just fly in limited areas at the present time
C.can collect information from many sources
D.has been put into wide application
30.Which of the following can be learned from the passage?D
A.The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects.
B.Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.
C.There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.
D.Wood's design can replace animals in some experiments.
31.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?C
A.Father of Robotic Fly

D.Harvard Breaks Through in Insect Study.
2.Music for Humans and Humpback Whales
As researchers conclude in Science,the love of music is not only a universal feature of the human species,but is also deeply fixed in complex structures of the human brain,and is far more ancient than previously suspected.
In the articles that discuss the field of bio-musicology,the study of the biological basis for the creation and appreciation of music,researchers present various evidence to,show that music-making is at once an original human"business",and an art form with skillful performers throughout the animal kingdom.
The new reports stress that humans hold no copyright on sound wisdom,and that a number of nonhuman animals produce what can rightly be called music,rather than random sound.Recent in-depth analyses of the songs sung by humpback whales show that,even when their organ would allow them to do otherwise,the animals converge on the same choices relating to sounds and beauty,and accept the same laws of song composition as those preferred by human musicians,and human ears,everywhere.
For example,male humpback whales,who spend six months of each year doing little else but singing,use rhythms (节奏) similar to those found in human music and musical phrases of similar length-a few seconds.Whales are able to make sounds over a range of at least seven octaves (八度音阶),yet they tend to move on through a song in beautiful musical intervals,rather than moving forwards madly.They mix the sounds like drums and pure tones in a ratio (比例) which agrees with that heard in much western music.They also use a favorite technique of human singers,the so-called A-B-A form,in which a theme is stated,then developed,and then returned to in slightly revised form.
Perhaps most impressive,humpback songs contain tunes that rhyme."This suggests that whales use rhyme in the same way we do:as a technique in poem to help them remember complex material,"the researchers write.
25.The underlined words"converge on"in Paragraph 3probably  meansA.
A.tend towards      
B.refer to    
C.turn into     
D.put forward
26.Which of the following shows the advanced musical ability in humpback whales?B
A.They can remember complex material.
B.They can create pleasing patterns of music.
C.They can make sounds like drums continuously.
D.They can sing along with rhythms of western music.
27.What is the main idea of the article?D
A.Animals are able to compose and enjoy music like humans.
B.Human beings borrow ideas in music from humpback whales.
C.Humpback whales are skillful performers in the animal kingdom.
D.Music-making it an ancient activity of both humans and animals.
28.The main purpose of the passage is toB.
A.argue and discuss        
B.inform and explain
C.compare and advertise    
D.examine and assess.
7.In Asia,there are many places for people to go to teach English.Most of the teachers are young and sociable,and there are a lot of parties there.Korea is usually the place most people go,because they have the most benefits and highest salaries by working only twenty hours a week.Japan is also a good choice,but only if you stay there for a long time will you save some money.
China is a new rising star and lots of people are going there.Like Japan,the pay is quite good,but the cost of living in China is much cheaper.You can save a sizable amount and complete all your loans back home.Besides,Chinese people are enterprising (有进取心的) and you can learn a lot from them.In China,Taiwan is a good place to go,especially for females who want to earn much,but there are not many adult classes offered.
The Middle East offers very high salaries and great packages for teachers,all of which is tax free.However,you must be a certified teacher and have a few years'experience if you want to teach there.Most of the people who tend to teach there are older and more conservative,so they don't expect a party scene.
Italy and Spain are two beautiful countries where you can try your fortune.Fashion industry in Milan would love to hire wellknown Englishspeaking people to work with international models and designers.Tourism is another industry in these countries,where English knowledge is useful.Moreover,by teaching in Europe you have the ability to travel every weekend to a new country and visit a new culture besides a good salary.Europe has a lot to offer.
Teaching English overseas is a really rewarding experience.It is a great way for people to see a new place,and these countries and places are a great place for you to go if you are interested.

28.What is the purpose of the passage?B
A.To explain the benefits of teaching English abroad.
B.To recommend some places to those who want to teach English abroad
C.To compare the places where English teaching is popular.
D.To teach how to enjoy yourself when you teach English abroad
29.Why does saving money in Japan take more time?C
A.It offers a lower salary.
B.It offers fewer English classes.
C.Its cost of living is higher.
D.You have to pay a lot of tax.
30.What does the underlined word"conservative"(in Para 3)probably mean?D
A.knowledgeable.
B.unfriendly.
C.boring.
D.unsociable.
31.The common thing among the countries and areas mentioned is thatA.
A.they all offer a good salary.
B.English teachers only work 20hours a week.
C.teaching experience is not quite necessary.
D.they offer chances to meet with famous models.
4.For thousands of years,the most important two buildings in any British village have been thechurch and the pub.Traditionally,the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town,where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.
As a result,British pubs are often old and well preserved.Many of them have become historicsites.The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called"The Old Trip to Jerusa-lem".which dates hack to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.
     However,British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classesand parts of society.On a cold night,the pub's landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire.There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.
     That's how things used to be.Things are beginning to change.It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩 ) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business.People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer.Recently,the UK government banned (禁止) smoking in all pubs,and that  may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.
     This decline(衰退) is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 11 p.m.Previously,with 11 p.m.as closing time,customers would have to drink quite quickly,meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly.The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as"binge drinking",and it causes long-term health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.
In order to save their businesses,pubs are trying to change with the market.British pubs now offer something for everyone.A lot of pubs used to be"Working Men's Clubs",meaning that women could not usually enter.Today,however,women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems.Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.
64.The passage mainly tells us something aboutC
A.the long history of British pubs                   
B:the decline of British pubs
C.the past and present of British pubs                 
D.the importance of British pubs
65.Which may not be the cause of the decline of British pubs?B
A.The credit crunch.
B.The present closing time.
C.The ban of smoking.
D.Having no spare money.
66.We can infer from the passage thatD.
A.binge drinking means drinking less beer
B.British people used to like drinking slowly
C.closing the pubs early will reduce social problems
D.British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking
67.We can see from the last paragraph that the authorA
A.holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubs
B.is against the admission of too many women to the pulbs

5.Death Valley is one of the most famous deserts in the United States,covering a wide area with its alkali sand.Almost 20percent of this area is well below sea level,and Badwater,a salt water pool,is about 280feet below sea level and the lowest point in the United States.
Long ago the Panamint Indians called this place"Tomesha"-the land of fire.Death Valley's present name dates back to 1849,when a group of miners coming across from Nevada became lost in its unpleasantness and hugeness and their adventure turned out to be a sad story.Today Death Valley has been declared a National Monument(纪念碑) and is crossed by several well-marked roads where good services can be found easily.Luckily the change created by human settlement has hardly ruined the special beauty of this place.
Here nature created a lot of surprising,almost like the sights on the moon,ever-changing as the frequent wind moves the sand about,showing the most unusual colors.One of the most astonishing and variable parts of Death Valley is the Devil's Golf Course,where it seems hard for one to tell reality from terrible dreams.Sand sculptures(沙雕) stand on a frightening ground,as evening shadows move and lengthen.
