点评 完形填空解题技巧:一、做完形填空时,要始终抓住文章本身,联系"双语境"来判断,既大语境--全文中心和基调,小语境--空格前后句子所构成的语境;再根据前有伏笔后有呼应的思路来做题.二、在完形填空题中,but 一词前后通常会设题.文中一出现but,应该马上想到前后语意有转折,只要知道其中一方的语意,就可以推出另一方的意思,所以在做题时,遇到类似but的词,如:however,nevertheless,whereas,yet等,也可以同样处理,以便于从文中找到解题的依据.三、绝对矛盾法是从选项着手分析,若四个选项中有两个选项是绝对矛盾和对立,那么正确选项大多在这两个对立项之间产生.二者必居其一.至于究竟是两者中的哪一个,则需要进一步根据上下文的语境来判断.四、同义复现是英语中常见的一种现象.为强调某一意思,但又不想重复使用某个词或短语.在完形填空题中,同义词或同义短语的位置多半比较靠近,很容易找到,所以同义复现法是很好的解题技巧.无须过多的推理,只需确定是哪里使用了同义复现,然后从选项中找出与之相符合的一项即可.

5.For four lonely years,Evelyn Jones of Rockford,Illinois,lived friendless and forgotten in one room of a cheap hotel."I wasn't sick,but I was acting sick,"the 78-year-old widow says,"Every day was the same.I would just lie on my bed and maybe cook up some soup."Then,six months ago,she was invited to The Brighter Side--Rockford's day care center for the elderly.Every weekday morning since then,she has left her home to meet nine other old people in a church for a rich program of charity work,trips,games,and--most important of all--friendly companionship.
Just a few years ago,there were few choices for the elderly between a normal life in their own homes and being totally confined in nursing homes.Many of them were sent to rest homes long before they needed full-time care.Others like Mrs.Jones were left to take care of themselves.But in 1971,the White House Conference on Aging called for the development of alternatives to care in nursing homes for old people,and since then,government-supported day-care programs like The Brighter Side have been developed in most big American cities.
"This represents a real alternative to the feared institution and makes old people believe they have not left the world of living",says Alice Brophy,64,director of New York City's Office for the Aging,"They do well at the centers,and I hate it when people describe us as elderly playpens(婴儿扶栏)."New York's 138centers encourage continuing contact for the aged with the community's life.The centers serve more than 15,000members,and volunteer workers are always looking for new ones.If someone doesn't show up at the center for several days in a row,a worker at the center calls to make sure all is well.And although participation in the center is free,those who want to can pay for their lunches.
No normal studies have been made of these centers for the elderly,but government officials are enthusiastic.In the future,the Public Health Service will do a study to decide if the programs can receive federal Medicare money.And the old people themselves are very happy with the programs."There is no way",says Evelyn Jones,smiling at her new companions at the Brighter Side,"that I will ever go back to spending my day with all those loses at the hotel."

66.According to the passage,many old people went to the nursing homes becauseC.
A.They are in urgent need of full-time care.
B.They were rather willing to go there.
C.They were sent there.
D.They were volunteers there.
67.We can conclude from the statements of Alice Brophy thatB.
A.the centers are like elderly playpens.
B.the old people do well at the day care centers.
C.old people like nursing institutions.
D.outside the Brighter side they don't work for the old.

A.pessimistic.
B.concerned.
C.neutral.
D.optimistic.
69.What is the main idea of the article?B

2.In a computer age,a broadband Internet connection is very popular now.Whether cable or mobile broadband,today's connections are many times faster than those in the early days.Videos play smoothly,complex websites load quickly,and files download much faster than ten years ago.And the files are much bigger too.
There's  a catch:You have to live near enough to a major city to get broadband Internet.If you don't,it's slow dial-up access for you.And for those living really far out,there may be no Internet access at all.
Technology experts often talk about the"last mile"problem,which refers to the difficulty of bringing Internet access to remote locations.In cities and suburbs(郊区),it's relatively easy to provide access for everyone.It is much more difficult to deliver access to those living far from cities,especially in developing countries.Internet service providers,for their part,have been reluctant to provide access to sparsely (稀疏地) populated areas.The handful of Internet users they would reach wouldn't cover the expense.
But every year,technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users.Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies aren't available everywhere.
Some companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines.Advancements in cheaper,more efficient fiber optics cables (光纤电缆) promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more users.Still,the"last mile"problem remains hard to deal with.There will always be somewhere that doesn't have an affordable broadband connection.But someday that might not matter.If the rapid progress in cell phone technology is any indication,it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.

41.The underlined part"a catch"(in Paragraph 2)probably means"D".
A.a big task      B.a wonderful plan
C.a major city    D.a hidden problem
42.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?D
A.Internet connections have been popular everywhere.
B.Internet service providers are willing to care about rural(农村的)customers.
C.Computer can't become popular in developing countries.
D.The problem of Internet access hasn't been completely dealt with.
43.Paragraph 4mainly tells us that technological advancementsC.
A.make TV and telephone available everywhere
B.bring great change to people's everyday life
C.make it possible for more people to use the Internet
D.bring faster Internet connections to users
44.What may eventually settle the"last mile"problem?D
A.The broadband connection's getting faster.
B.More and more Internet users.
C.More and more Internet connections.
D.The rapid progress in cell phone technology.
45.The best title for this passage may beA.
A.Internet Connection Problems
B.Internet Connections Need Improving

He added,"The area is a must-see place for millions of Angry Birds players,but also a great experience for those who are not yet familiar with the game.The Angry Birds characters were born in Finland but known worldwide by people of all ages.This is a perfect fit for our Adventure Park.
The simple game is now the number-one paid game of all time and has been downloaded over 700million times.Players use catapults (弹弓) to fire angry birds at green pigs hiding inside buildings made of wooden boards.
The game---which was developed by Finnish gaming company Rovio Entertainment---has made a lot of products including Angry Birds toys and clothing.A Hollywood movie is also said to be planned.

19.By analyzing academic data from 10states,representing the testing of more than 7.2millions of youths,U.S.researchers found that gender differences in math scores were extremely small among all ethnic groups in grades 2-11.
These findings are in contrast to earlier results from 1990that indicate measurable differences favoring males in complex problem-solving,beginning in the high school years.
Janet Hyde from University of Wisconsin and colleagues reported their study results in the journal Science on Friday.
Currently,women are largely absent from the highest levels of careers in mathematics,the physical sciences,and engineering.In the United States,Ph.D.programs in engineering currently average only about 15percent women,and similar statistics have led to stereotypes (成见)about girls and women lacking in mathematical ability.
Now,it is clear that the general population no longer shows a gender difference in mathematical skills,according to this latest report.
And this new data on academic performance in the United States shows that students are tested frequently on"recall"and"skill/concept"items,but rarely on"strategic thinking"(战略思维) or"extended thinking"concepts.
If standardized tests do not assess (评估)the sorts of reasoning that are   crucialto careers in science and math,then the skills may not be taught,putting American students at a disadvantage to students in other countries where testing and instruction focuses on more challenging content."This is a gap that should be fixed,"Hyde said.

61.What is the best title of the passage?B
A.A new study result about math.
B.No gender differences in math.
C.Girls are not good at math.
D.Girls do better in math than boys.
62.Earlier research resultsB.
A.are the same as that of this latest report
B.indicate that boys are much better in complex problem-solving than girls
C.indicate that girls are much better in complex problem-solving than boys
D.are completely wrong
63.The underlined word"crucial"in the last paragraph most probably meansC.
A.necessary     B.unimportant     
C.important     D.cruel
64.What Hyde said in the last paragraph means thatB.
A.standardized tests should assess the sorts of reasoning so that the skills may be taught
B.testing and instruction focuses on more challenging content in the USA
C.students in other countries are cleverer than American students

6.Why People Get Tattoos
Jack lay,quiet and unmoving,for thirty minutes while a stranger repeatedly stabbed (刺) him with sharp needles,causing blood to pour steadily out of his leg.Jack was getting a tattoo.His friend Tony had recently gotten a tattoo,and Jack was so impressed by it that he decided to get one too.Peer pressure,media influence,and personal expression are some of the common reasons for wearing tattoos today.
The desire to be accepted by one's friends or peers can have a great influence on what a person does.Sometimes,wearing a tattoo can be a sign that you belong to a certain group.Gangs often use special clothes and tattoos to identify their particular group.Some of these groups wear only brand-name clothes.Others wear tattoos.When a person's friends are all doing something,that person in more likely to do the same thing.
The media is another big influence behind the popularity of tattoos in North America.A wide variety of media images(人物,图象) show tattoos-people appearing in commercials selling expensive cars,famous sports heroes with tattoos in magazines,fashion models wearing designer clothes that show their bodies tattooed with detailed and colourful patterns.These media images link tattoos to ideas of wealth,success,and status.As a result,many people decide to get a tattoo for its fashion and status value.
Many people decide to wear tattoos in order to express their artistic nature,their beliefs,or their feelings-in other words,to show their individuality(个性).A musician in a rock band may get a tattoo of a guitar on the arm.Some environmentalists may tattoo pictures of endangered animals on their shoulders.A tattoo can be a public sign to show what is important in a person's life.
As you can see,there are many reasons why young North Americans get tattoos.A tattoo can be part of a group's uniform,a sign of fashion.or an expression of individuality.The decision to get a tattoo is most often a result of the influence of friends or media or the desire to express oneself.For Jack,it was a mixture of all three.
63.Jack has got tattoos in order toD.
A.show his great bravery                                 
B.gain a special experience
C.make himself more healthy                         
D.be different from others
64.According to the passage,media images are linked toB.
A.traditional lifestyle                                        
B.social position
C.cultural background                                      
D.public interest 
65.We can infer from the passage thatA.
A.some people get tattoos out of pressure 
B.tattoo is related to religious belief
C.getting tattoos costs a lot of money        
D.most people with tattoos are artists
66.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?D
4.A machine that takes sweat-laden (浸满汗水的) clothes and turns the sweat into drinking water is in use in Sweden.The machine makes the clothes turn round quickly,heats them to remove the sweat,and then passes the steam through a kind of special material to make purified water(净化水).
Since it has been brought into use,its creators say more than 1000people have drunk others'"sweat"in Gothenburg.They add the liquid is cleaner than local tap water.
The device was built for the United Nations'child-focused charity UNICEF to promote a campaign highlighting the fact that 780million people in the world lack access to clean water.
The machine was designed and built by the engineer Andreas Hammar,known locally for his appearances on TV tech show"Mekatronik".He said the key part of the sweat machine was a new water purification part developed by a company named HVR.
"It uses a technique called membrane distillation (膜蒸馏),"he told the BBC."We use a special kind of material that only lets steam through but keeps bacteria,salts,clothing fibers and other things out.They have something similar to the International Space Station,but our machine is cheaper to build.The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is,but one person's T-shirt typically produces 10ml,about a mouthful."
The device has been put on show at the Gothia Cup-the world's largest international youth football tournament.Mattias Ronge,chief executive of Stockholm-based advertising agency Deportivo,said the machine had helped raise awareness for UNICEF,but in reality had its limitations.
"People haven't produced as much sweat as we hoped-right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy,"Mattias Ronge said."So we've equipped the machine with exercise bikes and volunteers are cycling like crazy.Even so,the demand for sweat is greater than the supply.And the machine will never be produced in large numbers,since there are better solutions out there such as water purifying pills."
28.UNICEF is mentioned in the text toD.
A.show how the sweat machine works
B.tell us who invented the sweat machine
C.show the importance of the United Nations
D.explain why the sweat machine was invented
29.Which of the following is the disadvantage of the sweat machine?A
A.The amount of water the machine produces is rather limited.
B.It costs a large amount of money to build the machine.
C.It takes too long for the machine to produce water.
D.The water processed by the machine is not clean enough.
30.What did Mattias Ronge think of the sweat machine?B
A.It did not work at all.
B.It was not worth popularizing.
C.It could only be used in summer.
D.The water it produced tasted sweet.
31.What is the passage mainly about?C
A.A better solution to purifying dirty water is discovered.
B.780million people in the world lack access to clean water.
