题目内容

10.It was ______ that caused her to serve dinner an hour later than usual.(  )
A.us being lateB.our being late
C.we were lateD.because we were late

分析 是我们的迟到让她比往常晚了一个钟吃晚餐.

解答 答案:B,此题容易认为强调的是原因状语从句 because we were late.但实际上,此题的答案为B,强调的是句子主语 our being late,此题若还原成非强调句,即为:Our being late caused him to serve dinner an hour later than usual.注意,强调句的一个显著特点是,若去掉强调结构 it is[was]…that…,句子仍然成立;换句话说,该结构中的 it is[was]…that…that 不能充当句子成分,而实际上句中的动词cause需要有自己的主语.

点评 考查强调句式的用法,注意其构成形式:it is+被强调部分+that/who+其他成分,当被强调部分是人时,that能用who代替,其余时候只能用that.

8.Pocket Tape-Recorders"Family and Home Magazine"test what's on the market now.
1)Pearlcorder 702 64
This simple model at the bottom of the Olympus range scored the most points for its excellent quality of recording.Background noise hardly affects the sound and recording from a pocket is perfectly possible,but it doesn't turn off automatically.
Tape length:30minutes per side.Weight:240g.
2)Sony M9 49.95
Small and very good looking,sony's latest offering scored most for appearance.Sounds clear,but there is slight machine noise.The big control buttons are a great improvement on some of the complicated little controls on other tape-recorders.Doesn't switch off automatically but a red light shows if the machine is still running.

3)Sony M400 115
Lots of little control buttons that make a noise and are difficult to use.Recording was good but machine noise lost points.Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful.

1.As computers become more popular in China,Chinese people are increasingly depending on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters.But if they use the computer too much,they may end up forgetting the exact strokes (笔画) of each Chinese character when writing on paper.Experts suggest people,especially students,write by hand more.
Do you write by hand more or type more?In Beijing,students start using a computer as early as primary school.And computer dependence is more widely spread among university students.Almost all their assignment and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.
It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer.And that's why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education.But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly,problems appear.
"When I'm writing with a pen,I find I often can't remember how to write a character,though I feel I'm familiar with it."
"I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper."
Many students don't feel this is something to worry about.Now that it's more convenient and efficient to write on a computer,why bother to handwrite?
Many educators think differently.Shi Liwei,headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said,"Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic (审美的) value.But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value.All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost.And handwriting contains the writer's emotion.Through one's handwriting,people can get to know one's thinking and personality.Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them."
To encourage students to handwrite more,many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的)and in universities,some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.

C.Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.
D.The writer's thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.

18.Space tourism could he the dream of almost every human being on the planet,but it is only there for a few extremely rich people who can afford the cost.One of the possibilities that impressed me most is the one offered by a company called Space Adventures.
What they have in place is a space tourism program that allows you to travel to the International Space Station (ISS).The preparation for the trip starts some months before it really departs.There is a training period which mainly deals with zero gravity operations,flight control and survival (生存)activities.
The trip can be planned exactly to meet your needs,either as a scientific researcher,or simply as an adventure traveler.Probably you will not find any other kind of trip where all details are planned so carefully for your enjoyment.
One of the great things,even if it would be a bit more expensive,is to include a space walk within your trip,and thatsurely would be a good opportunity to dance outside with your loved one to a slow waltz.Sorry,I forgot there's no sound in space!
Whatever you choose,you may have no problems apart from the cost,as the requirements seem to be less than the ones needed for getting a visa(签证).
Finally,the question you have had in mind gets answered.You say space tourism is expensive.For a normal booked flight to the ISS,you will be paying between $30 and 40 million.But hey!A Russian language course is included!

5.It was 1:30 a.m.Monday at London's Savoy Hotel and,with autograph books and cameras,a group of brighteyed tennis fans of all ages were waiting for just a glimpse of Maria Sharapova(莎拉波娃).
    The 17-year-old girl defeated champion Serena Williams(威廉姆斯) 6-1 6-4 in the Wimbledon(温网)final on Saturday in London to become the first Russian to win a single title at the championships.
    A silver lining to a depressing,rain-hit Wimbledon,she has raised heated passion.
    Nobody was complaining,though,for the 1.83-metre Sharapova has created a welcome wave of interest in tennis,something missing in recent years.
    Not even Anna Kournikova(库尔尼科娃)evoked(唤起) such passion when she broke on to the scene.To look good on court is one thing,but Sharapova can actually play the game too.Extremely well.
    She proved it over 13 days at the world's most prestigious tournament.Playing tennis of the highest quality throughout,the Russian's triumph not only lifted the tournament from fits of rain-induced depression but also salvaged(拯救;挽回) the season for the woman's tour.
    Sharapova was given no easy ride in the tournament,having to beat 1999 champion Lindsay Davenport(达文波特)in the semifinals and twice-champion Serena Williams for the title.Neither caused her much concern.
"I don't remember too much about the final,"Sharapova giggled."I was in my own place."
    She will find it increasingly hard to find any place to call her own from now on after advertisers identified her as the most marketable woman in sport.
    In Russia she is sensational news.She headlined the news bulletins and was telephoned by former Russian President Boris Yeltsin after her triumph.
   Sharapova will return to her adoptive Florida home knowing life will never be the same again.
    But the girl who arrived in the US aged seven with her father and just US$700 is determined not to let fame and riches detract from her number one love,tennis.
"I know things will start coming up and that many more things will want to get involved,but I want to keep my head cool and play tennis,"she said.
61.Why is Savoy Hotel mentioned in the passage?C
A.Because the good-looking Kournikova would break on to the scene.
B.Because the fans wanted to take a picture of Sharapova.
C.Because Sharapova was expected to appear there.
D.Because it gave the fanatics shelter from the rain.
62.Who has won the most times in Wimbledon?C
A.Sharapova.B.Kournikova.C.Serena Williams.D.Davenport
63.Before Sharapova,there was(were)DRussian(s) who had won the title.
A.Four.B.Two.C.One.D.No.
64.Which of the following statements about this year's Wimbledon is RIGHT?A
