10.The fellow left without a word as if ________.(  )
A.never to returnB.never returning
C.he had never returnedD.he would never be returning

分析 他没有说一句话就走,就像他将永远不回来.

解答 答案是A.本题考查as if省略句. 假如as if 引导的从句是"主语+系动词"结构,可省略主语和系动词等成份,这就构成"as if+名词/不定式/形容词(短语)/动词ing形式"等;本题as if 从句完整的表达为"as if he were never to reutrn(好像他将永远不回来)",故答案选择A.as if 后接完整的句子时常常用虚拟语气表示与事实相反;本题容易误选C项,看成与过去事实相反;但是如果选择C项表达的意思是"好像从未回来过"不符合句子的逻辑.

点评 本题考查省略,省略常常是为了避免重复的省略,所以要在补全被省略的部分的情况下整体理解语境,再做判断.

20.Sunny countries are often poor.A shame,then,that solar power is still quite expensive.Eight 19,a British company by Cambridge University,has,however,invented a novel way to get round this.In return for a deposit of around dollar 10 it is supplying poor Kenyan families with a solar cell able to generate 2.5 watts of electricity,a battery that can deliver a three amp(安培) current to store this electricity,and a lamp whose bulb is a light-emitting diode(二极管).The firm thinks that this system,once the battery is fully charged,is enough to light two small rooms and to power a mobile-phone charger for seven hours.Then,next day,it can be put outside and charged back up again.
The trick is that,to be able to use the electricity,the system's keeper must buy a scratch card-for as little as a dollar-on which is printed a reference number.The keeper sends this reference,plus the serial number of the household solar unit,by SMS to Eight19.The company's server will respond automatically with an access code to the unit.
Users may consider that they are paying an hourly rate for their electricity.In fact,they are paying off the cost of the unit.After buying around dollar 80 worth of scratch cards-which Eight19 expects would take the average family around 18 months-the user will own it.He will then have the option of continuing to use it for nothing,or of trading it in for a bigger one,perhaps driven by a 10-watt solar cell.
In that case,he would go then through the same process again,paying off the additional cost of the upgraded kit at a slightly higher rate.Users would therefore increase their electricity supply steadily and affordably.
According to Eight 19's figures,this looks like a good deal for customers.The firm believes the average energy-starved Kenyan spends around dollar 10 a month on oil-enough to fuel a couple of smoky lamps-plus dollar 2 on charging his mobile phone in the market-place.Regular users of one of Eight19's basic solar units will spend around half that,before owning it completely.Meanwhile,as the cost of solar technology falls,it should get even cheaper.

1.My friend Fowkes,tells a story of a class he took in 1930s,when books were short and expensive.On the first day the professor marched up to the blackboard,looked through his notes,cleared his throat,and began.Fowkes was the only student in the course.Once Fowkes fell ill and missed a class.When he returned,to Fowkes's astonishment,the professor began to deliver not the next lecture in the sequence but the one after.Had he lectured to an empty hall in the absence of his only student?It was perfectly possible.
Today,professors continue to lecture and students to listen much as they did.It's time for us to abandon the lecture system and turn to methods that really work.
Attending lectures is passive learning,at least for inexperienced listeners.Active learning,in which students write essays or perform experiments and then have their work evaluated by an instructor,is far more beneficial for those who have not yet fully learned how to learn.Most students learn best by engaging in debate.They need small discussion classes that demand a joint effort of teacher and students rather than classes in which one person,however learned,expresses his or her own ideas.
The lecture system harms professors as well.It reduces feedback to a minimum,so that the lecturer can neither judge how well students understand the material nor benefit from their questions or comments.Questions that require the speaker to clarify unclear points and comments that challenge inadequately constructed arguments are indispensable to scholarship.Without them,the liveliest mind becomes dull.
If lectures make so little sense,why have they been allowed to continue?The truth is that lectures are easier on everyone than debates.Lectures give some students an opportunity to sit back and let the professor run the show.In a classroom where everyone contributes,students are less able to hide and professors have less room to show off how smart they are.
Worse still,the lectures too frequently come at the wrong end of the students'educational careers-during the first two years,when they most need close,even individual,instruction.If lecture classes were restricted to junior and senior undergraduates and to graduate students,who are more academically independent and more capable of working on their own,they would be far less destructive of students'interests and enthusiasms.After all,students must learn to listen before they can listen to learn.

15.My neighbor Peter Gate's life was shadowed for years by the memory of his part in an outdoor adventure that resulted in the death of one of his classmates.He and his wife (21)Bafter six years of marriage.Then the news about Peter changed.His wife Betty came back; he (22)Ca fine position in a company.
One day he told me what had changed his (23)D:I used to think,‘Nothing can undo what I have done.'The thought of my guilt(罪恶感) would (24)B me in the middle of a smile or a handshake.It put a wall between my wife and me.Then I had an (25)Avisit from the person I (26)Bmost to see-the (27)C of the college classmate who died."Years ago",she said,"I found it in my heart,through prayer(祈祷),to(28)C you.Betty forgave you.So did your friends and employers."She (29)D,and then said (30)A,"You are the one person who hasn't forgiven Peter Gate.Who do you think you are to (31)B the people of this town and God?""I (32)C her eyes and found there a kind of (33)Ato be the person I might have been if her son had lived.For the first time in my adult life I felt (34)B to love and be loved."
So,you see,it is only through forgiveness of our (35)C that we gain the freedom to learn from experience.But forgiving our shortcomings doesn't mean(36)Athat they exist.(37)D,it means (38)A them honestly,realistically.(39)Cyou forgive,you cannot love.And without (40)B,life has no meaning.Forgiveness is a good quality.

2.The summer of 2001saw.Australians win the Cycling Tour de France,beat the world at cricket and rugby,and have a player in the final of the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament for the eighteenth time.
Many countries would be amazed at that kind of success.For Australia,it was just a typical sporting summer.At the 2000Olympics,Australia came fourth in the medals table.That does not sound great,yet Australia has a population of only 19million.There are more Olympic medal winners per head of population in Australia than any other country.
What is it that makes Australians a sporting people?This is a question that many people participating in sports have asked themselves over the years.
Some of the answers are simple.Sports need space.Australians have 7.4million square kilometers of space to play sports in.Many other countries are either too crowded or too small to encourage everybody to take part.Besides that,Australia is a warm,dry country.This encourages people to go outdoors to enjoy themselves.Furthermore,since 85percent of Australians live near the sea,they learn water sport early; and since sharks swim off the coasts of Australia,they also learn to swim very fast.
Other reasons go deep into the history,culture and economy of the country.When the British first found Australia they decided that it would be a great place to send criminals to.Life for the first Australians was very tough,so they had to be independent and develop a will to win just to survive.Yet they also had to be able to trust each other and be willing to help each other out.In other countries,coaches train people in mental toughness and team building.In Australia,these qualities are part of the general social environment.
From the cultural perspective,being far away from Europe also means that Australians are far away from the centers of Western arts and cultures.As a result,sport itself has become a way of cultural expression and part of Australian nationality.An English football fan wants to see the national team do well,but really cares about his local club.For an Australian,representing the nation is the most important of all.Everything else is just good practice.Being good at sports is part of what it means to be an Australian.

55.What can we learn from Para.2?D
A.Australia has the most medal winners in the world.
B.The achievement made in 2001is abnormal for Australia.

57.Supposing you are an English football fan,you are most delighted thatB.
