1．________ a distinctive scenic spot worth ________，Yangzhou，a friendly city，appeals to visitors from all over the world．（　　）
A．Considered； visitedB．Considered； visiting
C．Considering； visitingD．Considering； being visited

分析 扬州，一个友好的城市，被认为是非常有特点的城市，吸引了来自全世界的游客．

解答 答案B  由题干可知，consider的逻辑主语是Yangzhou，二者之间是逻辑上的被动关系，be considered（to be），被认为是…，因此第一个空使用过去分词considered； be worth doing，值得做某事，此处动名词主动表示被动意义，故答案为B

点评 本题考查非谓语动词，对于非谓语动词的考查，一定要学会判断语态，根据主被动就可以排除掉干扰项，然后根据动作发生的先后顺序判断时态，最终选出正确答案．另外，对于固定搭配平时需要多积累，多总结，这样才能提高正确率．

16．Why should mankind explore space？Why should money，time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits？Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth？These are questions that，understandably，are very often asked．
Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup（基因构成） as human beings．What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains，and on into all possible areas and environments？The wider the spread of'a species，the better its chance of survival．Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible．
Nearly every successful civilization has explored，because by doing so，any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for．Without knowledge，we may be completely destroyed by the danger．With knowledge，we can lessen its effects．
    Exploration also allows minerals and other potential（潜在的）resources to be found．Even if we have no immediate need of them，they will perhaps be useful later．Resources may be more than physical possessions．Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration．The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives．We have already benefited from other spin-offs including improvements in earthquake prediction，in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems．Even non-stick pans  and mirrored sunglasses  are by-products（副产品）of technological developments  in the  space  industry!
     While many resources are spent on what seems a small return，the exploration of space allows creative，brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us．While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works，it also holds dangers．The danger exists，but knowledge can help human beings to survive．Without the ability to reach out across space，the chance to save ourselves might not exist．
     While Earth is the only planet known to support life，surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets．It is true that the lifestyle would be different，but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future．

14．In 1988，a company in Ohio invented an alcohol-based hand cleaner，which was meant to be used by health-care worker； when soap and water were unavailable．Joe Kanfer，the company's C．E．O．，told me recently，"there were a couple of other alcohol products out there，but they were really ugly．Either they were greasy （油腻的） or they burned your hands white．"Kanfer took a year and a half to develop this product which is visually appealing and does almost no harm to one's skin．Still．Kanfer lost money on it for mare than a decade because people couldn't get what it was for．
The product was called Purell．Today，you see it everywhere．My doctor uses it several times during every office visit．You can aer it in almost every office in the U．s..and school picnics would be impossible without it．The former president Grorge W．Bush was called a racist for using hand cleaner after first shaking hands with Barack Obama，but Bush also gave some of it to Obama and recommended it as a cold preventative （预防药）．What was once barely even a product is now a growing product category，worth hundreds of millions per year．
The rise of Purell makes some health professionals uneasy，Some claimed that promoting hand cleaner may worsen"our culture's irrational （非理性的） fear about bacteria．"Still，the clear agreement among experts is that unclean hands pose a serious health risk，and are one of the main reasons in the spread of infectious in hospitals．A 2007study estimated that，in America in 2002，such infections resulted in more than a million and a half patient illnesses and caused or contributed to nearly a hundred thousand patient deaths-about double the number of U．S．deaths currently caused each year by AIDS and guns combined．
However，I asked a food microbiologist whether clean hands might have a medical drawback．He said．"We might have a much healthier population if we adopted the kinds of condition that we see in many Third World countries，with poor-quality food and poor-quality water and lots of bacteria．If we did that，we would have adults who were very healthy and have very strong immune systems．Unfortunately，the price that we would pay would be extremely high child death rate．"

28．Why did Joe Kanfer lose money on his product according to Paragraph 1？A
A．Because people didn't think it useful．
B．Because people thought it was ugly．
C．Because it was harmful to the skin．
D．Because it burned the hands white．
29．What does Paragraph 2mainly talk about？B
A．Purell brings in lots of money for Kanfer．
B．Purell has been widely used in the US．
C．Purell is a cold preventative．
D．Purell meets different needs．
30．What mainly caused patient deaths according to the figures in Paragraph 3？C
A．People's fear about bacteria．
B．Hand cleaner．
C．Bacteria on the dirty hands．
D．AIDS and guns．
31．What can we learn about the people in Third World countries？D
A．They adopt healthy living habits．
B．They have poor immune systems．
C．They eat food with fewer hacteria．
D．Their child death rate remains high．
1．Do you think telling lies，whether a little or a lot，isn't that big of a deal？Well，that depends on the situation．If someone asks，"Does this dress make me look fat？"we might all lie somewhat．We might say，"Of course not．You look great．"Lying to spare someone's feelings is one thing．Lying to destroy someone's character or fame is another．
"What's really terrible is that you can't undo a big lie，"says a minister we'll call Morgan．"I promise if you go house to house to say，‘I feel terrible I wrongly accused my neighbor of stealing，'the lie will spread like a fire fueled by gasoline．You can't call back a lie very easily．"
Morgan goes on to say that lies have hurt people more than guns．
"We have a grandfather in our church whose former son-in-law told people the man treated his own children cruelly，"Morgan says．"To this day，we don't know whether it is true or not．I would tend to doubt it，but I can't take a chance，especially if he is working with young people in our church．"
Disarming someone who lies is tough．It's like disarming someone who's prepared to fire．That's why our society is full of people who are forced to cover up the lies of other people．
"I worked with a man who was stealing money from our employer，"says a man we'll call Fred．"He was so good at lying and doctoring the books （做假账） that it would have taken an FBI agent to stop him．I worried，‘If I turned him in，and he got out of the trouble，my career at our company would come to an end．'"
Fred says he came up with a plan to drop hints （暗示） to the company owner．"I found printed materials on monitoring possibly dishonest employees．I started mailing them to the company owner without leaving my name．Then one day，over lunch，I told my boss he should have the books checked carefully．He got the hint．"
Fred told us that when the books were checked，the dishonest co-worker tried to blame him for the errors．However，Fred told the company owner he had been dropping hints for some time．The boss got the picture．Fred kept his job．The dishonest guy was fired．
Figuring out how to make a liar public takes work．It can be done，but you might have to move at the pace of a turtle．The slower you move，the more control you will have．You have to give others time to take in the truth．
62．The underlined phrase"spare someone's feelings"in Paragraph 1can be replaced byB．
A．destroy someone's feelings       
B．avoid hurting someone
C．put someone in a bad mood  
D．express someone's ideas
63．Which of the following can be used to conclude Paragraph 2？A
A．It's no use crying over spilt milk．
B．Every man has his faults．
C．There is no smoke without fire．
D．Pride goes before a fall．
64．How does the author develop this passage？C
A．By listing numbers．
B．By making comparisons．
C．By giving examples．
D．By following order of time．
65．What can we know from the passage？D
A．It was true that the grandfather treated his own children cruelly．
B．It is not difficult to persuade a dishonest man into telling the truth．
C．Fred's boss believed the dishonest employee's words and fired Fred．
D．To make a liar public，we should figure out effective ways in advance．

10．"All right then-Just one more piece…"Words every girl has said when faced with That ail-too delicious cheesecake．Of course，many of us know we may eat the whole thing in the end．
     It isn't just girls．Most of us find it hard to hold back．However，scientists now say that willpower （意志力） is the key to success and a happy life．
     Scientists in different countries have been studying the effects of willpower on people's lives for a long time．The results are alike，according to an article on February 7 in the Guardian．
     In one experiment，scientists told young children that．they could either have a marsh-mallow （圆形软糖）now，or two marshmallows in 15 minutes．Waiting obviously needed more willpower．Scientists then tracked the children as they grew up．They wanted to see if certain children always had stronger willpower．They also wanted to see how having stronger willpower affected their lives．
     Years later，scientists found that the children who had waited for two marshmallows were all healthier，happier and richer adults．In contrast，the children who had shown weaker willpower at that young age were more likely to be in low-paid jobs，to be overweight，to have drug or alcohol problems，to divorce or to commit crimes．
     But there is hope，Roy F Baumeister，an American social psychology professor told the Guardian．Baumeister says we can train our willpower just like we train our muscles．Even a little practice can strengthen our overall self-control as long as we do it regularly and frequently．
     You could start by making yourself stand up straight，speaking in complete sentences，or using a computer mouse with the other hand．Scientists have found that people who manage to change little habits often perform much．better in lab willpower tests．
     Like muscles，willpower can"get tired"．You should avoid trying to do too many things at the same time，or when you don't have enough energy for example when you are ill．If you already feel tired，you can try to recharge （恢复） your willpower with a good night's sleep and by eating well．
57•Thee example of a girl eating cheesecake is used toA．
     A•introduce the issue of willpower     
     B．show how easily people give in to their desires
     C．prove most girls lack willpower．
     D•indicate the connection between willpower an success
58．What can we infer from the experiment？B
     A•The scientists did not expect the results to turn out as they did．
     B•The children who chose to wait were likely to succeed in their future careers and lives．
     C•It indicated that willpower is the most important factor for success．
     D•The children who only accepted one marshmallow at that start had stronger willpower．
 59．Why can we say that willpower is like our muscles？D
     a．You shouldn't overuse it．．
     b．Rest and good food are good for it．
     c•Setting goals is good for it．
     d•It needs regular exercise．
     A．abc            B．acd               C．bcd             D．abd         
60．What is the article mainly about？C
     A•What the effect of willpower is．
     B•How willpower and muscles are similar．
     C•The significance of willpower and how we can strengthen it．
     D•How willpower is linked to success．
11．Tell the manager I won't discuss anything until I ________ to my wife．（　　）
