　　Ⅲ.阅读理解Americans.

　　US citizens are heading to Australia in small but growing numbers as near 10% unemployment at home drives more to look for jobs Down Under, where China's thirst for iron ore(矿石) and energy is transforming the Pacific nation into an economic powerhouse.a leading provider of quality education and training in the building and construction industry, was apprenticed(当学徒) on a building project in Western Australia, where workers are in short supply.，a 23­year­old floorer from Camarillo, California made the 14­hour move across the Pacific two years ago. He had been forced to take a job stocking shelves at a local grocery store for $8.90 an hour when he couldn't get work fixing floors.he now makes as much as 50 Australian dollars( US $50.21 ) an hour—about twice the amount for a typical flooring job in the US. He plans to start his own flooring business.

　　“I can make what I did in a week in the US in less than a day here”，said Mr. Davila, who lives near a mining boom town in Western Australia.，000 an 80% jump over the past five years.US citizens are now the third­largest group applying for so­called 457 work visas, after British and Indian nationals. Americans with degrees in areas such as accounting or mine engineering, as well as other skilled workers，can obtain a nonrenewable(不可更新的) permit for as much as a three­year stay.After that, they can apply for the renewable 457, which allows up to a four­year stay.

Drivers of heavy trucks can pull in six­figure salaries while experienced crane(起重机) operators can earn hundreds of thousands a year. Attracting skilled workers is a shift for Australia, which historically sent many of its most highly educated to the US and Europe, according to migration data.

　　课时作业(三　考查冠词的用法。an airplane泛指“任何一架飞机”；experience作“经历；体验”讲，是可数名词，其前应加不定冠词。句意：在一万英尺的高空从一架飞机上跳下来是一次相当令人兴奋的经历(体验)。故答案为C。　考查动词的时态和语态。此处指“被说服”，在条件状语从句中用一般现在时代替一般将来时。　考查现在分词的用法。从时间状语four years later可以看出，这是过去的一个动作，所以这里相当于and graduated…，因此用现在分词作结果状语。　考查动词短语辨析。care about关心；care for喜欢；take care of照料。根据句意，答案为B。　考查非谓语动词。view和句子的主语the city是动宾关系，所以需要用被动形式，因此将A和D排除。B项表将来或目的，不合逻辑，所以选择C。　考查非谓语动词的用法。此处过去分词短语作伴随状语，not否定不定式，故置于其前。句意：杰克去年上大学离开了父母，决心实现他的目标才回家。　考查非谓语动词。­ing式形容词表示“令人……的”，常用于修饰物；­ed式形容词表示“……的”，常用于修饰人。所以本题应用interested，在句中作宾补。D　考查状语从句。since自……以来，从……以后，引导时间状语从句。句意：据报道，自清华大学It is＋一段时间＋since从句表示“自从……以来已有多长时间了”。　考查名词词义辨析。transport运输，运送，运输工具；service服务；means方式，手段；traffic交通。语境表达“通过公共运输工具出行”，可知A项正确。　考查名词辨析。attitude towards“对……的态度”是固定搭配。　考查主动表示被动的情况。句 to breathe。　考查名词辨析。schedule 时间表，进度表。relief 欣慰； budget 预算； concern 关心，担忧。tight schedule指时间表安排得很紧。　考查名词性从句。句意：我们还没有定下来这个问题——对他来讲是否有必要出国学习。根据句意需要whether 引导宾语从句。14．B　考查形容词词义辨析。句意：预计嫌疑犯会被绳之以法，因为另一个可靠的证人许诺将出庭作证。secure意为“安全的，牢固的，有把握的”；reliable意为“可靠的，真实可信的”；punctual意为“准时的，严守时刻的”；respectful意为“有礼貌的，谦恭的”。根据句意可知B项正确。　考查短语辨析。句意：——抱歉，我踩到你的脚了。这完全是意外。——才不是！你是故意的。as usual通常，像平常一样；on purpose故意，有意地；at an end完结；right away立即，马上。作者偶然翻开卡片，思绪回到从前，恩情永生难忘，世界如此温暖。一张卡片，一位好人，一段美好的人生回忆。　作者看到这张卡片后，把它“翻过来”去看卡片背面的内容。turn over表示“翻转”。　在卡片的背面，有草草的手写的“信息”，字都褪色了。message一般指口头传递的或书写的信息，是可数名词。D项通常指消息、情　看到卡片上的内容，作者的思绪立刻“回”到了多年以前。　根据第二段最后一句中的“magazines”可知作者当时背着一包“杂志”。　作者当天转了几圈后，最终来到了那家公司。　Mr.Rader总是把作者带到那里，“询问”他的员工是否想购买作者的杂志。　作者像一只落汤鸡一样“抖落”身上的雨水，走进了他的办公室。shake off“抖掉，甩掉”，符合语境。　他匆匆地看了一眼，发觉作者的窘况后，把作者“领”到壁炉旁。　本段的后半部分提到他为作者购买了一双新鞋，由此可推知他注意到了作者的鞋上有“洞”。　参见上题解析。　他们将车“停”在一家鞋店前。pull up“停车，停止”，符合题意。后三项分别表示“理解，吸收”、“开走”、“走近”，都不符合语境。　售货员给作者挑选了一双非常合适的鞋，此处fit用作动词，意为“使适合”。　这是作者“曾经”见到过的最好的一双牛津鞋。　作者穿上这双鞋站起来后，感觉自己大约有十英尺那么高，in them表示的是in the shoes。　文章　根据本句后半部分中的“do to you”可知此空应用Do。本句的意思是“己所不欲，勿施于人”。　他亲切地说：“吉米，我想让你知道我爱你。”　作者第一次“感觉到”希望的闪现，不管怎样，事情总会好起来的。　根据上文叙述的Mr.Rader帮助作者推销杂志　世界上有了像Mr.Rader这样的人，就有了希望、善良和关爱，世界也会因此而不同。make a difference表示“有影响，起作用”。前三项分别表示“交易”、“财富”、“选择”，显然有悖文意。随着澳大利亚经济的繁荣发展，有越来越多的美国人去澳大利亚寻找工作。他们的发展如何呢？让我们从文章中寻找答案。　细节理解题。从第二段中的“but growing numbers as near 10% unemployment at home drives more to look for jobs Down Under”知，美国将近10%的失业率导致越来越多的美国人到澳大利亚寻找工作，所以选B项。　推理判断题。从文章倒数第二段中的“…457 work visas…as well as other skilled workers”可知，457工作签证是专门颁发给高级A项。　从Daniel Davila的例子并结合文章可知，很多美国人在澳大利亚赚的钱要比在美国赚的多得多，由此可知答案为B项。　细节理解题。从最后一段的“The need for workers is particu­larly pressing in Western Australia.”可知，澳大利亚的西部地区急需工人，答案选D项。
