15.My wife is crazy about shopping on the Internet.(61)Itseems that she can't control herself well,just crazy constantly with the mouse.Let me tell you what happened last night.It was the fourth time she(62)had shopped(shop) online for hours.I had already reminded her(63)to think(think)twice before buying anything,but my wife ignored what I said and replied confidently,"with the New Year(64)approaching(approach),preparation is necessary.Besides,I haven't bought things on the Internet for a whole week."Hearing her words,I was really speechless.In most cases,the things she has bought aren't good value for money.Maybe she just enjoys (65)theprocess of buying online.
Nowadays,(66)withthe development of technology,online shopping is becoming more and more convenient.Those(67)whostay at home can buy whatever they want.In the meanwhile,it causes a series of(68)problems( problem).One of them is more spending than before,because people are(69)easily(easy) attracted by the discount and advertisement claims.So(70)howto buy things that you really need is a lesson every one should learn.

分析 本文主要讲述作者的妻子沉溺于网上购物,所购之物并不物有所值.因此,建议我们不要被打折和广告所吸引,应当购买我们确实需要的物品.

解答 61.It 考查it用法.it作形式主语,真正的主语是that she can't control herself well从句.
62.had shopped 考查动词时态.句型"It/This/That+was+the first/second/…time (that)+过去完成时"表示"某第一/第二/…次".
63.to think 考查动词不定式.remind sb.to do sth.意为"提醒某人做某事".
64.approaching 考查现在分词.此处是with复合结构,the New Year与approach之间是主谓关系,用现在分词作宾语补足语.
65.the 考查冠词.因名词process后有后置定语of buying online,加定冠词the表示特指.
66.with 考查介词.with the development of意为"随…发展",是固定搭配.
67.who 考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词those指人,在从句中作主语,用关系代词who. 
68.problems 考查名词复数.problem是可数名词,其前有a series of修饰时要用复数形式.
69.easily 考查副词. attract是动词,要用副词修饰,形容词easy的副词是easily.
70.how 考查副词.特殊疑问词+动词不定式作主语.

点评 在一篇200词左右的语篇(短文或对话)中留出10处空白,部分空白的后面给出单词的基本形式,要求考生根据上下文填写空白处所需的内容或所提供单词的正确形式,所填写词语不得多于3个单词.要做好语法填空题,理解短文是解题的前提,扎实的词汇、句型和语法知识是基础,英语国家的背景知识是必要的补充.考生须灵活运用语法知识,如单词词性、单词时态、名词单复数、连接词、代词、冠词等判断各空白处应填写的内容.答完后,还要通读全文,核对所填单词形式是否正确,是否符合语境.

9.Last Christmas,I didn't get a single Christmas present.This wasn't a(41)C I had asked for it.As early as a week before Christmas,I had decided that instead of (42)B presents,I wanted to buy presents for the (43)D in the local orphanage (孤儿院).
When I told my family my plans,there was a lot of(44)A.On Christmas Day,however,the (45)C shocked me.

I'd heard a lot about how orphanages were (49)C built but the reality was still a shock.I instantly (50)A it.There were no smiles.It felt a bit like being in a huge house filled with forgotten,(51)A kids.
I was taken to a room full of children,and was suddenly (52)B at how empty it felt.I wanted to make these children smile.I felt (53)D,and I was.

For many of us,Christmas is the best time of the year.The time I spent in the orphanage taught me that the (59)A I felt at Christmases should not be taken for granted.It taught me to (60)D everything that was mine.

6.The part of the environmental movement that draws my firm's attention is the design of buildings.Today,thousands of people come to (50)B building conferences,and the idea that buildings can be good for people and the environment will be increasingly (51)C  in years to come.Back in 1984we discovered that most manufactured products for decoration weren't designed for (52)B  use.The"energy-efficient"sealed commercial buildings constructed after the 1970s energy crisis (53)A  indoor air quality problems caused by materials such as paint,wall covering and carpet.So for 20years,we've been looking for ways to make these materials (54)D  for people and the planet.

Look at it this way:no one (61)C  to create a building that destroy the planet.But our current industrial systems are basically causing these conditions,whether we like it or not.So (62)A  of simply trying to reduce the damage,we are(63)B  a positive approach.We're giving people high-quality,healthful products and an opportunity to make choices that have a  (64)C effect on the world.It is not just the building industry,either.Entire cities are taking these environmentally positive approaches to design,planning and building.

20.Women turn to online shopping
Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping,according to a study published last week in the US.
For Years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women,but during the 2014holiday season,58percent of those making online purchases were women.
"It shows how mainstream the Internet is becoming",said Lee Rainie,director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project Group,which carried out the study.
Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men.This is because women traditionally make decisions about spending.
Users were more likely to shop online to save time.Internet users between the ages of 18and 29were responsible for some of the most dramatic(显著的)increases in the online gift-buying population this time around.
However,three-quarters of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2014.They worried about credit card security,or just compared online prices with off-line prices,then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals.
"But even if shoppers don't buy online,websites are becoming promotion tools for stores,"said Dan Hess,vice president of Comscore Networks Inc.Hess said that actually most stores'websites can make customers fully believe the security of their credit card numbers.And most are able to ensure that gifts arrive on time.
"It's all about making the shopping experience more efficient,more reliable and more comfortable,"Hess said.
24.What can we know from the passage?D
A.People,except young,don't like to do gift-shopping online
B.American people only buy gifts in holidays.
C.Shopping off-line provides better service.
D  People like to do gift-shopping online.
25.According to Dan Hess,shopping onlineD.
A.is unsafe
B.is a waste of time  
C.is cheaper  
D.is convenient
26.From the passage we can infer thatB.
A.men usually decide how to spend money in the family
B..women usually decide what to buy in the family
C.the Internet is used in all the shops
D.more and more shops will sell their goods online.
27.Which of the following statements is true?C
A.There were fewer women online shoppers than men in 2014.
B.People in the US were more likely to buy gifts online.
C.More women shopped online than men in 2014.
D.Most of the Internet users between the ages of 18and 29are women.
7.The Wife-carrying World Championship has been celebrated in a small town in central Finland since 1992.In 1992,the people of the town decided to restart some long-forgotten traditions.Back in the late 1800s,there was a robber called Rosvo-Ronkainen in that area.He was said to only accept men as members of his gang (帮派)who proved their worth in challenges.At that time,it was also a common practice to steal women from neighboring villages.
This event is becoming increasingly popular.A large number of competitors and journalists from Canada to Finland attend the Wife-carrying World Championship every year.
The event is famous for its warm and humorous atmosphere.The Wife-carrying World Championship is held on a 253.3meters long official track.The track has two dry obstacles (障碍物)and a water obstacle,about a meter deep.
There are a few basic rules and the winner is the couple who complete the course in the shortest time.The wife to be carried may be your own,or your neighbor's.The minimum weight of the wife to be carried is 49kg.If she is less than 49kg,the wife will be given a heavy bag to carry.Each time a competitor drops his wife,that couple will be fined 15seconds.
Along with the Wife-carrying World Championship,there is also a team competition.The distance is the same but three men in the team carry the wife in turns.At the exchange point the carrier has to drink official"wife-carrying drink".Then he may continue the race.A special prize is awarded to the team with the best costumes.

C.introduce how the Wife-carrying World Championship has become popular.
D.tell us something about the Wife-carrying World Championship.
4.People judge others by what they say and what they do.How you speak to others also contributes to what others think of you.Whether communicating with colleagues and superiors or family and friends,it's beneficial to speak to people politely.(36)EIt makes them more willing to accept what you are saying.
(37)DFor example,"Please close the window"or"Close the window,please"is much more polite than"Close the window".
Use helping words such as"would","could","will"and"can"to soften a possible demanding meaning when you want something done.Giving orders as questions makes them more polite.(38)F
Use a soft tone(语气) when speaking politely.Tone can change the meaning of your words from politeness to anger.(39)GFor example,if you say"I do not want to go"with a stress on the word"not"or"I"and anger in your body language,you will sound less polite than if you keep the tone calm.
Try to pay attention to how loudly you are speaking.(40)CFor example,"I do not want to go"when stated in a low,quiet voice is more likely to be understand as a polite request,than if the same statement is said loudly,like a demand.

A.People should try to be polite to other people.
B.Some words are important in communication.
C.A quieter voice sounds more polite then a bigger one.
D.Use the word"please"every time you make a request.
E.Everyone feels more respected when spoken to politely.
F."Can I leave now?"is more polite than"I'm leaving now".
G.Do not stress any words and remove feelings from your voice.
5.Forty years ago,Finland was a small country with mediocre(普通)public schools.Today,Finland is still small but no one calls Finland's public schools mediocre any more.
In 2000,the Finns surprised the world when their 15-year-olds scored at the top of a closely watched international exam called the PISA.Finland has stayed near the top ever since,while the U.S.scores around the middle.
Pasi Sahlber g,an official with Finland's Ministry of Education and Culture,is in Seattle this week to share the story of Finland's success,and what states like Washington can learn from it.
Sahlberg's message,although he is too polite to put it so bluntly(坦率):Stop testing so much,trust teachers more; give less homework; shorten the school day.
On Tuesday,in a room filled with teachers,principals,professors,school-board members and policy makers,Sahlberg joked about the Finns'reputation(名声) for being a quiet,humble people."When Finland hit the top of the PISA,"he said,"the biggest disbelievers were Finns."
More seriously,Finland never set out to create the world's top school system.Instead,he said,the country deci ded in the 1970s that it wanted to ensure that a student's success didn't depend on family background.
"Finland relied on cooperation among teachers and schools,rather than on competition.Rather than judging teachers and schools based on test scores,"he said,"Finland puts trust in its teachers and principals.Teachers develop the curriculum in Finland,and design their own tests.There are no nat ional tests,except one at the end of high school."
That's just the start.Along with a shorter school day,Finnish students don't even start school until they are 7 years old.Many primary schools have a policy against giving homework.
"But Finland,"he said,"succeeded in part by adopting ideas from the U.S.and other countries.And those countries,"he said,"can learn from Finland,too."

32.What might be the author's purpose of writing the passage?C
A.To introduce a Finnish official.
B.To compare the education systems of Finland and the US.
C.To share the story of Finland's success in education.
D.To ask the US to improve its education.
33.People first learned Finland's success in education fromA.
A.its students'performance in an international exam.
B.its international exchange programs.
C.lectures given by Pasi Sahlberg.
D.its small-sized public schools.
34.Which of the following can contribute to Finland's  success in education?C
a.Giving students fewer tests.
b.Giving teachers more trust.
c.Evaluating students'family backgrounds.
d.Creating the world's top school system.
e.Starting school late.
A.a,b,c              B.c,d,e          C.a,b,e           D.b,c,d
35.What Pasi Sahlerg said in Paragraph 7 suggested thatB
A.children should start school as early as possible.
B.competition among teachers might be harmful to education.
C.the US education system is still the most advanced.
D.it is necessary to set up a national curriculum.
