当被修饰的名词是face,smile,look等能表现人情感的名词时,通常用ed形式的形容词,故选C。

6.I think Oxford Advanced Dictionary ________ more words than any other dictionary.
A.prints
B.writes
C.covers
D.involves
答案:C 考查动词辨析。print“印刷”;write“写”;cover“包含;涉及”;involve“使卷入(困难的情况);牵涉;包含”。注意cover与involve作“包含”时的区别。cover一般指书籍、演讲等包含或涉及到什么内容。而involve虽有“包含”之意,也是由前两个意思引申出来的,故它更侧重指“卷入”之意。

A.In a word
B.As a result
C.In other words
D.Above all
答案:A 句意:杰克善良、勤劳、聪明。总之,我怎么夸他都不为过。in a word“总之”,符合句意。as a result“结果”;in other words“换句话说”;above all“最重要的是”。
8.Bill wasn't happy about the delay of the report by Jason, and ________.
A.I was neither
B.neither was I

A.impressed
B.surprised
C.excited

Ⅴ.阅读理解
(2011·湖南十二校一次联考)
The UK has a wellrespected higher education system and some of the top universities and research instructions in the world. But to those who are new to it all, sometimes it can be confusing.
October is usually the busiest month in the college calendar. Universities have something called Freshers' Week for their newcomers. It's a great opportunity to make new friends, join lots of clubs and settle into university life.
However, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind, the prospect (前景) of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nervewracking (令人焦虑不安的). Where do you start? Who should you make friends with? Which clubs should you join?
Luckily, there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot. So just take it all in slowly. Don't rush into anything that you'll regret for the next three years.
Here are some top advice from past students on how to survive Freshers' Week:
●Learn rules.
Make sure you know British social etiquette(礼节). Have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.
●Be kind. Sometimes cups of tea or even slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends.
●Be sociable. The more active you are, the more likely you'll be to meet new people than if you're someone who never leaves his room.
●Bring a doorstop. Keep your door open when you're in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you're friendly.
So with a bit of clever planning and effort, Freshers' Week can give you a great start to your university life and soon yon'll be passing on your experience to next year's new recruits.
当你在异国他乡求学,对于刚刚步入一个全新校园的你来说,也许一切都会显得很陌生。但是你不要怕,本文将向你介绍一些在英国如何度过新生周的方法。
1.Which of the following statements is FALSE according to the passage?
A. October is generally the busiest month for universities.
B. It's a good idea to put a doorstop in your door.
C. A bit of planning can make Freshers' Week easier.
D. The first week of your every year at university is called Freshers' Week.
答案:D 细节判断题。根据文章第二段第二句话可判断出D项错误,新生入学的第一周才叫Freshers' Week。
2.The underlined word “recruits” in the last paragraph refers to ________.
A. courses
B. freshers
C. neighbors
D. challenges
答案:B 词义猜测题。最后一段逗号后面的意思是:新生周可以让你的大学生生活有一个很棒的开端,而且你将很快把你的成功经验传给下一年的新recruits,故不难推出画线词应该指的是新生“freshers”。
3.We can infer from the 4th paragraph that ________.
A. the newcomers usually miss the days living at home
B. most of the students in the UK spend three years in universities
C. many freshers are worried about how to fit university life
D. all the new students will make new friends and join certain clubs
答案:C 推理判断题。该段的第一句话说“数以千计的其他人也会和你一样担心如何正确地开始他们的大学生活”,由此可知应选C项。
4.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.
A.tell the newcomers how to make a new start in universities
B.introduce something about higher education system of the UK
C.discuss something about the Freshers' Week in the UK
D.advise the freshmen how to behave well in the beginning
答案:A 写作目的题。从文章第五段的Here are some top advice from past students on how to survive Freshers' Week可以看出该文的写作目的是A项。其中,Freshers' Week指的就是a new start in universities。
