15．-Ah，Anita．Is the design for the conference center ready？
-I _____ on it for over a month，but I haven't finished it yet．（　　）
A．workedB．had worked
C．have been workingD．was working

分析 --啊哈，Anita．会议中心的设计好了吗？
--我已经专注于这项工作一个多月，但是还没有完成．

解答 答案是C．本题考查现在完成进行时．由问句中的动词时态判断询问的是"现在的情况"，所以排除A、B和D；现在完成进行时表示表示从过去某时开始到现在这一段时间里一直延续着的动作还在继续进行；根据答句中的"I haven't finished it yet．"可知，设计还在进行中，故选C．

点评 完成进行时的解题首先要理解其时态的基本用法--表示从过去某时开始到现在这一段时间里一直延续着的动作，特别关注其"在进行中"的特征；然后在语境中寻找动作的时间依据进行判断．

11．The Touchstone
    When the great library of Alexandria burned，the story goes，one book was saved．But it was not a valuable book； and so a poor man，who could read little，bought it for very little money．
The book wasn't very interesting，but between its pages there was something very interesting indeed．It was a thin strip of vellum on which was written the secret of the"Touchstone"!The touchstone was a small pebble that could turn any common metal into pure gold．
The writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it．But the secret was this：The real stone would feel warm，while ordinary pebbles are cold．
So the man sold his few belongings，bought some simple supplies，camped on the seashore，and began testing pebbles．He knew that if he picked up ordinary pebbles and threw them down again because they were cold，he might pick up the same pebble hundreds of times．So，when he felt one that was cold，he threw it into the sea．He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone．Yet he went on and on this way．Pick up a pebble．Cold-throw it into the sea．Pick up another．Throw it into the sea．Pick up another．Throw it into the sea．The days continued over a long period if time．
One day，however，about mid-afternoon，he picked up a pebble and it was warm．He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done．He had formed such a strong habit of throwing each pebble into the sea that when the one he wanted came along he still threw it away．
    So it is with opportunity．Unless we are cautious，it's easy to fail to recognize an opportunity when it is in hand and it's just as easy to throw it away．

12．In today's fiercely competitive business environment，companies need to communicate information concerning a whole range of issues in a clear and precise manner to their customers．This is particularly so in the case of companies which do business in areas such as manufacturing，information technology （IT），engineering products and services-companies whose products and services may not be understood by a customer not familiar with its technical aspects．

A career in technical writing is seen as a good choice for women mainly because it is widely held that women are more gifted in creative writing than men and the job does not involve too much travelling or working at night．
28．What are"technical writers"supposed to do？A
A．To write about the company's products or services in clear，easy language．
B．To write about the company's products using correct technical terms．

7．Some animals will defend their territory by fighting with those who try to invade it．Fighting，however，is not often the best choice，since it uses Some animals will defend their territory by fup a large amount of energy，and can result in injury or even death．Most animals rely on various threats，either through sounds or smells．The songs of birds，the drumming of woodpeckers and the lous calls of monkeys are all warnings that carry for long distances，advertising to possible invaders that someone else's territory is being approached．Many animals rely on smells to mark their territories or leaving droppings around the territories．Other animals will be warned off the territory without ever meeting with the territory's defender．
Sometimes，these warnings may be ignored，and an invader may move accidentally into a neighboring territory，or two animals may meet near the border of their nearby territories．When the two animals meet，they will generally threaten each other with visual（视觉的）displays．These displays will often exaggerate an animal's size by putting up feathers or fur，or will show off the animal's weapons．The animals may go through all the behavior of fighting without ever actually touching each other．The displays are generally performed best near the center of an animal's territory，where it is more likel；y to attack an invader and where retreating becomes more of a choice．
Actual fighting usually only happens in overcrowded conditions，when resources are not enough．Serious injury can result，and old or sick animals may die．Leading to a more balanced population size．Under most natural conditions，territoriality is an effective way of maintaining a healthy population．The study of social behaviors such as territoriality in animals may also help up to understand human society．
