参考答案
参考解析
解析:本句的意思是:陌生人的友好或好奇伴我游遍了欧洲、北美、亚洲以及南部非洲。这里是指作者通过搭便车的方式由陌生人带着前往这些地方,因此选take。 make的意思是“使某人······”,无论是意思还是用法都不适合放在这里。travel意为“旅游”,常用于表示某人去什么地方旅游,例如:He has travelled to many places in the country.他已经游览了家乡的许多地方。cross意为“通过,交又”。
on the road意为“在路上”。该句意思是:途中有些让我搭便车的人和我成为朋友,很多人都曾盛情接待过我。
这句话是通过把搭便车旅行和几种其他的旅行方式相互比较,从而说明搭便车旅行的好处有哪些。因此这里应选择when。
根据上下文可知,这里问的是如今hitchhiking的情况如何,而不是books 或者是songs,因此这里应选择it。
hundreds of是固定用法,意思是“几百个”,例如hundreds of StudentS。
sky意为“天空”; space意为“空间”; map意为“地图”; heaven意为“天堂”。该句意思是说伊朗是搭便车旅游者的天堂。
本题为结构衔接题。as在这里引导一个从句。like和for后只能接名词。 since在这里语意不符合。
general feeling意为“普遍的感受,总体的感觉”。big, large,和little都不可以和feeling搭配。
must和should后不可以跟to,只能接动词原形。have to后也不可以接to。 只有need to do sth.的用法,意为“需要做某事”。
according to意为“根据”; owing to和due to都是“因为”的意思;with re-spect to意为“关于”。该句意思是“根据一位给我写电子邮件的波兰妇女······”。
根据下面一句话中“pick up the most hikers",可以推断这里填pick up,意思是“开车接某人”。
根据前一句话可以得知是drivers pick up hikers。
fence意为“篱笆”; barrier意为“障碍”; gap意为“差异”; stone意为“石头”。这里是说打破陌生人之间的障碍。
global warming是固定词组,意思是“全球变暖”。
因为句中说到搭便车会提高教育水平,education和这里的lessons相互对应,意思是通过提供实时的地理、历史、政治和社会学课程的方式,搭便车提高了教育水平。
on the road意为“在路上”。该句意思是:途中有些让我搭便车的人和我成为朋友,很多人都曾盛情接待过我。

第二篇Approaches to Understanding IntelligencesIt pays to be smart,but we are not all smart in the same way.You may be a talented musician,but you might not be a good reader.Each of us is different.Psychologists disagree about what is intelligence and what are talents or personal abilities.Psychologists have two different views on intelligence.Some believe there is one general intelligence.Others believe there are many different intelligences.Some psychologists say there is one type of intelligence that can be measured with IQ tests.These psychologists support their view with research that concludes that people who do well on one kind of test for mental ability do well on other tests.They do well on tests using words,numbers,or pictures.They do well on individual or group tests,and written or oral tests.Those who do poorly on one test,do the same on all tests.Studies of the brain show that there is a biological basis for general intelligence.The brains of intelligent people use less energy during problem solving.The brain waves of people with higher intelligence show a quicker reaction.Some researchers conclude that differences in intelligence result from differences in the speed and effectiveness of information processing by the brain.Howard Gardner,a psychologist at the Harvard School of Education,has four children.He believes that all children are different and shouldn't be tested by one intelligence test.Although Gardner believes general intelligence exists,he doesn't think it tells much about the talents of a person outside of formal schooling.He thinks that the human mind has different intelligences.These intelligences allow us to solve the kinds of problems we are presented with in life.Each of us has different abilities within these intelligences.Gardner believes that the purpose of school should be to encourage development of all of our intelligences.Gardner says that his theory is based on biology.For example,when one part of the brain is injured, other parts of the brain still work.People who cannot talk because of brain damage can still sing.So,there is not just one intelligence to lose.Gardner has identified 8 different kinds of intelligence:linguistic, mathematical, spatial, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal,body-kinesthetic (身体动觉的), and naturalistic.What is the main idea of this passage? A:The importance of intelligence?B:The development of intelligence tests.C:How to understand intelligence.D:How to become intelligent.

Operatunity1 Operatunity is a TV talent show for amateur opera singers.The winners get the chance to sing with the English National Opera. When two housewives,Denise Leigh and Jane Gilchrist won in 2002,their lives changed forever. As they sang Verdi's Rigoletto at the Coliseum(音乐厅)in Rome, they were transformed from working mothers into opera celebrities(名人).2 "I live in the village I was born in,"says Denise,who is blind."Lots of my neighbours are family, and my life is all about my three children."Jane,who worked as a cleaner and a shop assistant,was in a similar situation.She says,"All I had to look forward to was seeing my four children grow up,and I love that,but… you think'there must be more to life'.Winning Operatunity has opened up avenues I never knew existed."3 "This last year has been amazing,"Denise continues."Last mouth was Paris,before that we werere-- cording at Abbey Road,in London,and recently we had our album launch at the Royal Opera House." "We've been treated like princesses,"laughs Jane.“…champagne,chocolates,five-star hotels…”4 But it wasn't all so easy.For Denise,the worst part was waiting at the beginning."After I'd sent in my application form I worried for a month. Then I had to wait ten days after my first audition(试唱).That was awful."Even when they won the competition they were allowed to tell their close family but they weren't allowed to tell anyone else until later. Denise and Jane also found the travelling difficult.They couldn't take their children with them while they were away singing,so they had to organize childcare.However,there's been no problem with the physical side of singing:"We didn't have to worry about that as we've had lots of help and wonderful voice training,"says Jane.They also had to learn to deal with the media."The kids loved the fact that they could stay up and watch us on TV,but I just couldn't understand why some newspapers were more interested in the fact I divorced at 21,rather than the fact I had just sung at the Coliseum,"says Denise.

More Than 8 Hours Sleep Too Much of a Good Thing1 .Although the dangers of too little sleep are widely known,new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also suffer the consequences.2 .Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep,as well as a number of other sleep problems,than people who sleep 8 hours a night.People who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep and feeling refreshed after a night's sleep than 8-hour sleepers.3 .These findings,which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine,demonstrate that people who want to get a good night's rest may not need to set aside. More than 8 hours a night.He added that“it might be a good idea” for people who sleep more than 8 hours each night to consider reducing the amount of time they spend in bed,but cautioned that more research is needed to confirm this.4 .Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance,one report demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep more.5 .For the current report,Kripke reviewed the responses of 1,004 adults to sleep questionnaires,in which participants indicated how much they slept during the week and whether they experienced any sleep problems.Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night,arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep,and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning.6 .Kripke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours.In an interview, Kripke noted that long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too much time in bed.As evidence,he added that one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed.“It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a time in bed,then they'll spend a higher percentage of time awake.”he said.Long sleepers are reported to be more likely to______.A:fall asleep againB:become more energetic the following dayC:sleep less than 7 hoursD:confirm those serious consequencesE:suffer sleep problemsF:sleep more than 8 hours

Pedestrians Only1 .The concept of traffic-free shopping areas goes back a long time.During the Middle Ages,traffic-free shopping areas were built in Middle Eastern countries to allow people to shop in comfort and,more importantly,safety.As far back as 2,000 years ago,road traffic was banned from central Rome during the day to allow for the free movement of pedestrians (行人),and was only allowed in at night when shops and markets had closed for the day.In most other cities,however,pedestrians were forced to share the streets with horses,coaches and,later,with cars and other motorized vehicles.2 .The modem,traffic-free shopping street was born in Europe in the 1960s when both city populations and car ownership increased rapidly.Dirty gases from cars and the risks involved in crossing the road were beginning to make shopping an unpleasant and dangerous experience.Many believed the time was right for experimenting with car-free streets and shopping areas seemed the best place to start.3 .At first,there was resistance from shopkeepers.They believed that such a move would be bad for business.They argued that people would avoid streets if they were unable to get to them in their cars.When the first streets in Europe were closed to traffic,there were even noisy demonstrations,as may shopkeepers predicted they would lose customers.4 .However,research carried out afterwards in several European cities revealed some unexpected statistics.In Munich,Cologne and Hamburg,visitors to shopping areas increased by 5Opercent.On Copenhagen's main shopping street,shopkeepers reported sales increases of 25-40 percent.Shopkeepers in Minneapolis,the USA,were so impressed when they learnt this that they even offered to pay for the construction and maintenance costs of their own traffic-free streets.5 .With the arrival of the traffic-free shopping street,many shops,especially those selling things like clothes,food and smaller luxury items,prospered.Unfortunately,it wasn't good news for everyone, as shops selling furniture and larger electrical appliances(电器)actually saw their sales drop.Many of these were forced to move elsewhere,away from the city centre.Traffic-free shopping streets first developed in______.A:pedestriansB:North AmericaC:customersD:a bad experienceE:Middle Eastern countriesF:furniture sellers

第一篇The Making of a Success StoryIKEA is the world ' s largest furniture retailer , and the man behind it is Ingvar Kamprad , one of the world ' s most successful entrepreneurs (企业家 ).Born in Sweden in 1926 , Kamprad was a natural businessman.As a child , he enjoyed selling things and made small profits from selling matches , seeds , and pencils in his community.When Kamprad was 17 , his father gave him some money as a reward for his good grades.Naturally , he used it to start up a business-IKEA.Today IKEA is known for its modern , minimalist (极简单主义的) furniture , but it was not a furniture company in the beginning.Rather , IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous (五花八门的) goods , including watches , pens and stockings.IKEA first began to sell furniture through a mail-order catalogue in 1947.The furniture was all designed and made by manufacturers near Kamprad's home.Initial sales were very encouraging, so Kamprad expanded the product line.Furniture was such a successful aspect of the business that IKEA became solely a furniture company in 1951.In 1953 IKEA opened its first showroom in Almhult ,Sweden.IKEA is known today for its spacious stores with furniture in attractive settings , but in the early 1950s , people ordered from catalogues.Thus response to the first showroom was overwhelming : people loved being able to see and try the furniture before buying it.This led to increased sales and the company continued to thrive.By 1955 ,IKEA was designing all its own furniture.In 1956 , Kamprad saw a man disassembling a table to make it easier to transport.Kamprad was inspired.The man had given him a great idea , flat packaging.Flat packaging would mean lower shipping costs for IKEA and lower prices for customers.IKEA tried it and sales soared.The problem was that people had to assemble furniture themselves , but over time , even this grew into an advantage for IKEA.Nowadays , IKEA is often seen as having connotations of self-sufficiency.This image has done wonders for the company , leading to otter sales and continued expansion.Today there are over 200 stores in 32 countries.Amazingly , Ingvar Kamprad has managed to keep IKEA privately-held company.In 2004 he was named the world ' s richest man.He currently lives in Switzerland id is retired from the day-to-day operations of IKEA.IKEA itself, though , just keeps on growing.According to the passage , which of the following is NOT true?A:IKEA experienced rapid expansion since the late 1950s.B:IKEA designed its own products since 1955.C:IKEA sold all kinds of miscellaneous goods originally.D:Kamprad sold his company after retirement.
