Dear Sir or Madam，Your shipment of twelve thousand “Smart” watches was received by our company this morning.However，we wish to make a number of complaints concerning the serious delay in the delivery and your failure to carry out our instructions.
It was stressed from the beginning that the delivery date had to be less than six weeks.While we appreciate that delays in production are occasionally unavoidable，we must point out that the major reason why the order was placed with your company was that we were assured by you that your existing stocks ensure immediate shipment.Late delivery of the goods has caused us to disappoint several of our most valued customers，and is sure to have a negative effect on the future orders.
The second complaint concerns the difference in colour.Only half of the watches in the delivery received are of the colours we ordered.Our Hong Kong agent assures us that she stressed to you the importance of following our instructions，since we consider there to be only a limited market in this country for watches of other colours.Any watches that are not of the specified colours will，of course，be returned to you.
We are also somewhat concerned about the rather poor quality of the goods received，since it is obvious that the watches that finally arrived have been produced from inferior materials and have been made to a lower standard than those in the sample.We have also found that a number of the watches do not appear to be functioning.We should like to point out that we feel this matter to be entirely your responsibility.
As a result of the above problems，therefore，we feel that the most suitable course of action is to return to you unpaid any of the goods considered unsatisfactory，and to deduct(扣除) any costs
from our final settlement.We shall also be forced to reconsider whether any further orders should be placed with your company.
We look forward to your immediate reply.
Yours sincerely，
John Smith
16．How many complaints does John Smith make with the “Smart” watch producer?
A．Five.
B．Four.
C．Three.
D．Two.
17．The producer of “Smart” watches was given the order because________.
A．it produced the best watches of its kind in the world
B．the watches would be easy to make and the designs were already prepared
C．it promised to produce enough stocks quite quickly
D．it claimed the order would be easy since the watches were already in stock
18．Receiving watches in the wrong colours is a problem because________.
A．the Hong Kong agent stressed the need to fulfill the order exactly
B．these watches will be difficult to sell
C．these watches will not be able to get into the limited market
D．people will not buy the watches at present
19．The underlined sentence in the passage suggests that________.
A．the company may stop trading with the watch producer
B．the company will probably reduce the orders in the future
C．the writer is afraid that their company might go out of business soon
D．the company is probably willing to give the producer another chance

答案
Ⅰ.单项填空1．B [考查现在完成时与一般过去时的用法辨析。现在完成时与一般过去时的根本区别是：现在完成时强调的是事情已经干了，不强调动作发生的时间、地点、方式等，如果涉及这些，要用一般过去时，此题中涉及动作完成的方式with the help of my wife和时间after dinner。]
2．B [短语give sb.a ride意思为“用车带到……”，而第二空表示的是特指。]
3．C [as此处引导定语从句，指代后面的整个句子；第二个空应为“先进的和强大的国家”；advanced先进的。故选C项。]
4．B [考查情景交际。前文问句表示提出建议，根据应答句的后一分句可知应答句选B，意思是：我乐意。]
5．A [由于下面一句话意思是“因此方案被通过了”。因此空处应是“占多数”，所以选A；而C则表示“最大量/值”。]
6．C [答句句意为：——你想做的所有的事情就是购物。All (that) you ever want to do...你想做的所有事情。]
7．B [此题属have sth.done结构。]
8．B [vary from...to...为固定搭配，“由……到……不等”，符合句意。]
9．C [第一空是“作为小说家和诗人而出名”；第二空是“更以他的小说而出名”，故选C项。]
10．C [指想象中，玩具活跃了起来，come to life活跃起来，符合题意。]
11．C
12．B [whether...or...无论……还是……。句意为：所有的人，无论老幼、富穷，自从灾难以来，一直在尽力帮助那些需要帮助的人。]
13．A [a great variety of goods各种各样的商品。]
14．C [whatever the cost是whatever the cost is的省略，相当于no matter what the cost is。]
15．B [考查主语从句的应用。whichever＝no matter which，但是no matter which不能引导主语从句，whichever可以引导主语从句。句意为：无论哪个登山者最先到达山顶都会得到5 000英镑的奖赏。]

错因分析 有些考生认为，两个人说话时，所用的时态应是一致的，于是误选B或C。其实，问话者指的是结果，而答话者虽然强调的是地点，但地点暗示动作发生在过去，故选A项。
[得分笔记] 动词时态的运用不仅要从时间状语上进行确定，而且还要从地点状语所暗示的时间关系上来推敲。
(1)表示过去时间的词或短语：yesterday，last night，last week，this morning，in 2006等。
(2)表示动作发生地点的短语：at home/school，in the factory，on one’s way to等。.阅读理解16．C [细节理解题。文章第二、三、四段分别提到了发货不及时、颜色不对、质量不好三方面的问题。]
17．D [细节理解题。由文章第二段第二句可知D项正确。]
18．B [细节理解题。由文章第三段的“...since we consider there to be only a limited market in this country for watches of other colours.”可知，颜色不符合市场的需求，销路会受限制。]
19．A [推理判断题。文章画线部分是这家公司对手表制造商发出的最后通牒，他们可能会终止与对方的合作。]

阅读理解中处理文章中的长难句的方法(二)
2．省略句
这种句子相对以上三种来讲比较简单，但是如果这种句子在长句中出现，特别是与以上三种情况中的一种或几种同时出现，就会给考生带来很大的困扰。然而只要考生把英语中的省略现象加以总结归纳并牢记，省略句也就不会很难了。
[经典例题] A robot slave can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operations(for example，scrubbing，sweeping and dusting，washing up，laying tables，making beds)，when so switched by the housewife.
[得分笔记] 句中画线部分省略了主语it和系动词is。句意为：人们可以按照一个特定家庭的需要对一个机器佣人进行训练，并给它编好程序，使之能进行六种或六种以上的标准操作(如擦洗、打扫和除尘、洗餐具、摆桌子、铺床)，家庭主妇只需按上述操作要求按电钮就可以了。.写作Dear Tom，
It is great to receive your email.Now I’d like to tell you something that took place in my school yesterday.In the afternoon we held a growingup ceremony for our coming 18yearold birthday.At first we made an oath that as grownups we should have a sense of duty for our society from now on.Then we showed our thanks to our parents who have gone through hardships to bring us up and teachers who have been educating us patiently，and our teachers also gave us cards expressing their good wishes to us.Finally，we put on wonderful performances，singing and dancing.We learned a lot from the activity.I think it’s very important for us.I will remember the day in my life.
