题目内容

19.The house prices have risen by 12.4% over the 12months to the end of March,completely ________ his plan to buy a more comfortable apartment.(  )
A.ruinedB.ruiningC.to ruinD.ruins

分析 房价在过去12个月到三月底已经上涨了百分之12.4,这完全毁了他要买一间更舒服的公寓的计划.

解答 本句的谓语是have risen,ruin作为"破坏,毁灭"时是动词,一个句子不能有两个谓语动词,先排除D(谓语)和A(动词过去式也可做谓语).应该把ruin变成非谓语动词,非谓语动词有三种形式:ing表主动,-ed表被动,to do表目的或将来.ruin的逻辑主语是house price,是逻辑上的主动关系,因此填ruining表主动.

点评 考查非谓语动词,必须分清楚句子成分,然后选用三种非谓语形式:ing表主动,-ed表被动,to do表目的或将来.

7.How has smoking been controlled in recent years?
People were asked to stop smoking in a range of public places-such as doctors'surgeries,cinemas,theatres and churches-over the second half of the 20th century but it was after the King's Cross Underground fire on November 18,1987,caused by a cigarette end which resulted in 31deaths,that restrictions on smoking in public places gained rapid and widespread acceptance.
How did a ban on smoking in public places come into place?
In 1998the Smoking Kills White Paper set out a national strategy to reduce smoking prevalence (流行) and passive smoking,including in public places.The measures were voluntary and poorly carried out.After a public conference in England in 2004,the Government decided to choose for lawmaking.Scotland went first,with a ban in 2006,followed by the other nations a year later.
What is the current law?
Any person who smokes in enclosed public places,including pubs,offices,on public transport and work vehicles,is breaking the law.It does not extend to private houses.It is also an offence for people in charge of premises (营业场所) to permit others to smoke in them.
How was it received?
It was welcomed by most organizations-except for some pub owners and restaurateurs.Many workplaces in the UK had already introduced smoke-free policies consistent with the legislation (法律,法规) before it was carried out,while others have gone beyond its basic requirements.
All railway facilities,including platforms,footbridges and other areas-whether or not fitting the definition of an enclosed public space-are covered,as are all football grounds and some cricket and athletics stadiums.School grounds are not required to be smoke-free under the legislation,but the majority now are.
How has it been forced?
Compliance (服从) in public premises has been high,with inspections suggesting that 99per cent of places were sticking to the rules.The number of people charged for smoking in cars has been very low,which was due to the problems defining and identifying"work"vehicles.They said that a total ban on smoking in vehicles would end this confusion.
Has it improved health?
Studies in early adopters of the law,including in Scotland,suggest a reduction in hospital admissions for heart disease,which has been shown to be linked to passive smoking.There is also strong evidence of improved rates of smoking end and a drop in the number of cigarettes consumed by those who continue to smoke.

63.When did the first law come out to ban smoking in public places?D
A.1987.           B.1998.
C.2004.           D.2006.
64.Which of the following behaviors may NOT be against the law?C
A.Jack often smokes in the office when he is alone.
B.A taxi driver is smoking with a lady in his car.
C.Tom smokes while thinking of his future at home.
D.Max smokes for relaxation during time-out in the stadium.
65.Who might feel unhappy about the law according to the article?A
A.A restaurant owner.          B.A company manager.
C.A car owner.                  D.A policy maker.
66.What can you infer from the article?B
A.Most heart diseases have been proved to be linked to passive smoking.
B.A new law will soon come out with a total ban on smoking in vehicles.
C.The 1987fire has convinced more people that smoking is bad for health.
D.Most of the school grounds are not smoke-free,as it is not banned in the law.

11.If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life,new research may come as a shock.According to a recent scientific study,people who do a very  strenuous  workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.
Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000joggers and non-joggers for 12years.The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die.The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5miles per hour.The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7mph die at the same rate as non-joggers.The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries(动脉).Over time,this can cause serious injuries.
Peter Schnohr,a researcher in Copenhagen,said,"If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy,jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy.Anything more is not just unnecessary,and it may be harmful."
The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as t'ai chi,yoga and brisk walking may be better for us than"iron man"events,triathlons and long-distance running and  cycling.According  to  Jacob  Louis  Marott,another researcher involved in the study,"You don't actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health.And perhaps you shouldn't actually do too much."

32.The underlined word"strenuous"in Paragraph 1is closest in meaning to"A".
A.hard           B.regular
C.practical      D.flexible
33.The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2toC.
A.suggest giving up jogging
B.show risks of doing sports
C.provide supportive evidence
D.introduce the research process
34.According to the scientists,why is too much exercise harmful?A
A.It may injure the heart and arteries.
B.It can make the body tired out.
C.It will bring much pressure.
D.It consumes too much energy.
35.What can be inferred from the text?D
A.No exercise at all is the best choice.
B.More exercise means a healthier life.
C.Marathons runners are least likely to die.
D.Proper exercise contributes to good health.
2.Friday,December 30,2011 has been cut for the tiny South Pacific island nation,Samoa as it moved its time zone 24 hours ahead to catch up with Asia,New Zealand and Australia. On New Year's Eve,Samoa will Slave jumped to the west of the international dateline,which runs through the Pacific Ocean and broadly follows the 180 degree line of longitude (经线).
Its Prime Minister said it would make it easier for Samoa to trade with their key partners."No longer shall we have people ringing us up on Monday from New Zealand and Australia thinking it is Monday when we are closing our eyes and praying at churches.And in the same way,on our Fridays when we ring up and already our contacts are holidaying on their Saturdays,"he told Radio New Zealand on Friday.
To help win public support,the government declared employers must still pay workers for the missing Friday,although banks will not be allowed to charge interest for the lost day.
Countries are free to choose whether the dateline passes to the east or west,and Samoa's decision means all new maps will need to change.But some tourism operators are worried Samoa will lose business by losing its position as the last place on earth to see the sunset each day,although it is now one of the first places to see in each new day.
Samoa,a country of about 180,000 people,used to be in the same time zone as New Zealand and Australia,but went back a day in 1892,celebrating July 4 twice and aligning itself with the United States.The date change is not the first major change in Samoa in recent years.In 2009,the country switched to driving on the left hand side of the road from the right hand side,in line with New Zealand and Australia.
71.Samoa moved its time zone 24 hours ahead toD   
   A.trade with the United States
    B.be the first place to see in each new day
    C.follow the international dateline
    D.be in the same time zone as Australia
72.Which of the following is true according to the text?A
A.It's Monday now in Samoa while it is Sunday in America.
    B.Samoa once had a date change about 200 years ago.
    C.Samoa and America are now in the same time zone.
    D.In Samoa,cars move on the right hand side of the road.
73.On the missing Friday,___ in Samoa,C
    A.banks still charged interest      B.all the people had a day off
    C.workers still got paid            D.all celebrated New Year's Eve
74.The underlined word"aligning"in the last paragraph possibly meansB.
    A.celebrating     B.adjusting        C.moving           D.trading
75.What's the text mainly about?D
    A.The change of international dateline.
    B.The first nation to greet New Year.
    C.A new neighbor of Australia.
    D.A new date change in Samoa.
