A.in his honorB.in whose honorC.in which honorD.in honor of him

分析 这位著名的科学家,将很快到场(出席)那个为其庆祝而于今晚举行的宴会.

解答 答案:B  本句主句是:The famous scientist is to arrive soon.而中间是一个非限制性定语从句,修饰句子主语the famous scientist,其中,关系代词whose等同于先行词的所有格形式(in one's honor),在定语从句中充当定语.in one's honour=in honour of sb,意思是"为庆祝/为纪念/为表达对…的敬意".所以本题选择B.

点评 分析句子结构,分清主从句,找出先行词在句子所充当的作用.

7.People are being lured(引诱) onto Facebook with the promise of a fun,free service,and don't realize that they're paying for it by giving up loads of personal information.Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data(资料) to advertisers that want to send targeted (目标的)messages.
Most Facebook users don't realize this is happening.Even if they know what the company is up to,they still have no idea what they're paying for Facebook,because people don't really know what their personal details are worth.
The biggest problem,however,is that the company keeps changing the rules.Early on,you could keep everything private.That was the great thing about Facebook-you could create your own little private network.Last year,the company changed its privacy rules so that many things-your city,your photo,your friends'names-were set,by default(默认),to be shared with everyone on the Internet.
According to Facebook's vice president Elliot Schrage,the company is simply making changes to improve its service,and if people don't share information,they have a"less satisfying experience."
Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money.Its original business model,which involved selling ads and putting them at the side of the page,totally failed.Who wants to look at ads when they're online connecting with their friends?
The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington.In April,Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy.He also urged the Commission to set guidelines for social-networking sites."I think the senators rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,"Schrage admits.
I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade(侵犯)our privacy,it's only the beginning,which is why I'm considering deactivating(撤销) my account(账号).Facebook is a handy site,but I'm upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don't trust.That is too high a price to pay.

5.My daughter recently asked me what a travel agency does.There is one located on our street and it has just been completely rebuilt.I told her that they helped people book their trips and vacations."Why haven't we ever been there?"she wanted to know."Because we do everything ourselves online these days,"I explained."But why do it yourself if other people want to do it for you?"she wondered out loud.
The answer is that the travel agency makes a little bit of money on each ticket you book through them.If you book your ticket yourself online,you save that money.Saving money sounds great except that when you think about it you typically spend three evenings comparing prices to end up saving﹩30on a﹩300trip.All those﹩30discounts add up of course so I guess we should be happy with that.
Still,how bad is it really to pay someone﹩30and trust them to buy you something wonderful?Wouldn't you say your free evenings are worth more than﹩10a piece?
Consider books for a moment.Buying your book at Amazon saves you maybe 30% to 40% on each book.Add to that the convenience of shopping from home and getting the package delivered to your home address.So far so good.
Unfortunately,that does mean you spend too much time browsing Amazon.com while you could do something fun instead.Like maybe reading an actual book.
Then the package arrives and you aren't home and end up having to pick it up at the local post-office.All in all I wonder how much time I end up investing(投入) in the whole process.Time sounds free,but to most of us,it is more valuable than money.
The Internet Economy promised to get rid of the middle-men and we loved it.Somehow,I'm starting to get the feeling that we ourselves ended up doing the work of that middle-men we were so eager to get rid of.
In any project you can always pick two of these:fast,cheap or good.We seem to have focused a lot on‘cheap'and‘good'but the extra time we need to invest to also keep it‘fast'comes out of our own pockets.You can always make more money but you can never make more time.

36.What is the purpose of Paragraph 1?A
A.It indicates that the Internet has influenced our daily life
B.It mainly shows the curiosity of the author's daughter.
C.It tells us the importance of a travel agency.
D.It shows why people need a travel agency.
37.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?C
A.We should be satisfied with﹩30that we have saved because it is worthwhile.
B.﹩30that we have saved is too little,so we can't be happy with it.
C.It's hard for us to be happy with﹩30because we have wasted a lot of time.
D.We should feel regretful although﹩30is worth the time we have spent.
38.According to the author,which of the following is TRUE?C
A.The author's daughter would like to choose a travel agency to help her.
B.People buy book at Amazon in order to save time.
C.The author doesn't think online shopping is satisfactory in every way.
D.The author worries about sending personal information over the Internet.
39.What's the author's attitude towards the Internet Economy?B
A.Positive          
B.Critical           
C.Indifferent       
D.Optimistic
40.What's the main idea of the passage?D
A.The convenience of the Internet Economy.
B.How to save money in the Internet Economy.
C.How to save time in the Internet Economy
D.The hidden cost of the Internet Economy.
6.I stole your dog today.No,I didn't set a foot on your house,but from the condition of your dog,I can imagine what it looks like…The word"rubbish"comes to mind.
I found her along a road,with a heavy(36)Bwrapped around her neck,still (37)Drotten (腐烂的) boards from her doghouse.Not only did I know that most of the town people had already ignored her,(38)A the place where I found her,but I knew that if she had gotten into the wods,the"cross"that she(39)Bbehind her would have wrapped itself around a tree(40)B starvation or thirst killed her.

3.There is no better way to enjoy Scottish traditions than going fishing and tasting a little whisky at a quiet place like the Inverlochy Castle.When Queen Victoria visited it in 1873 she wrote in her diary,"I never saw a lovelier spot,"And she didn't even go fishing.
Scotland is not easily defined.In certain moments,this quiet land of lakes and grass mountains changes before your very eyes.When evening gently sweeps the hillside into orange,the rivers,teeming with fish,can turn into streams of gold.As you settle down with just a fishing pole and a basket on the bank of River Orchy,near the Inverlochy castle,any frustration will float away as gently as the circling water.It's just you and purple,pink,white flowers,a perfect harmony.If you are a new comer to fishing,learning the basics from a fishing guide may leave you with a lifetime's fun.Four many,fishing is more than a sport; it is an art.
Scotland offers interesting places where you can rest after a long day's fishing.Set against wild mountain and hidden behind woodland,the beautiful Inverlochy Castle Hotel below the Nevis is a perfect place to see the beauty of Scotland's mountains.Ben Nevis is the highest of  mountains,and reaching its 1342-metre top is a challenge.But it's not just what goes up that matters; what comes down is unique.More than 900 meters high,on the mountain's north face,lies an all-important source of pure water.Its name comes from the Gaelic language"usquebaugh"or"water of life"; And it is the single most important ingredient(原料) in Scotland's best known drink:whisky.
59.The story of Queen Victoria is to show thatB.
A.the queen is rich in tour experience
B.the Castle is a good place to go in Scotland
C.tasting whisky is better than going fishing
D.1873 is a special year for the queen
60.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?A
A.By giving descriptions
B.By following time order.
C.By analyzing causes
D.By making comparisons.
61.What is Ben Nevis special for?C
A.The Inverlochy Castle Hotel       
B.The beauty of its surroundings.
C.The water from the mountain.
D.The challenge up to its top.
62.What is the main purpose of the passage?B
A.To introduce Scottish traditions to tourists.
B.To show the attractions of Scotland to readers.
C.To explore geographical characteristics of Scotland.
D.To describe the pleasures of life in Scotland.
