　　A．tried

　　B．succeeded

　　C．attempted

　　D．managed

　　4．After all，there is probably ________ variation of pronunciation within the two countries as between them.

　　A．so much

　　B．as many

　　C．too much

　　D．as much

　　答案：D　本题考查as...as...结构。由variation可知B项错误；so...as...常用于否定句和疑问句中，所以A项不对；too much不与as连用，故可排除C项。

　　A．lies; lead

　　B．leads to; lie in

　　C．lies in; lead to

　　A．When

　　B．As

　　C．While

　　D．Before

　　答案：C　考查状语从句及连词。句意：尽管学生最重要的目标是在学业上做到优秀，但这不必是惟一的目标。while作连词，“尽管”，引导让步状语从句。

　　7．My teaching style is ________ that of most other teachers.

　　A．same asB．alikeC．similar inD．similar to

　　答案：D　句意：我的教学风格和多数教师的相似。be similar to“与……相似”；be similar in“在……方面相似”；alike是形容词后不可接代词；A项中若same前加上the语法上也讲得通，但语义上不合乎逻辑。故答案为D。

　　8．It is in their ability to speak ________ humans ________ from animals.

　　A．which; differ

　　B．that; different

　　C．which; different

　　D．that; differ

　　答案：D　句意：正是在说话的能力方面人类区别于动物。根据强调结构将A、C排除；根据词性different为形容词，不能用作谓语，排除B，故选D。

　　A．turned off；in favour of

　　B．turned down；in favour of

　　C．turned down；in need of

　　D．turned on；in hope of

　　A．make any difference

　　B．make any differences

　　C．do any difference

　　D．do any differences

　　答案：A　句意：他是否同意我们的意见并没有什么影响。make some difference用于否定句时将some改为any，此短语中difference为不可数名词。

　　11．A heavy snow fell on the first day of this year；you'll imagine what difficulty we had ________home in the snow.

　　A．walked

　　B．walk

　　C．to walk

　　D．walking

　　12．Many children seldom communicate with adults，________it difficult for their parents to know what they are thinking about.

　　A．making

　　B．makes

　　C．made

　　D．to make

　　答案：A　句意：很多孩子极少与成年人交流，这使得他们的父母很难了解他们在想些什么。making it difficult...为现在分词短语，在句中作结果状语，表示顺其自然的结果。

　　13．It is really an exciting game.________the game?

　　A．Who do you think will win

　　B．Whom do you think will win

　　C．Do you know who will win

　　D．Who do you think to win

　　答案：A　该句中的do you think是插入语，其结构是：“特殊疑问词＋do you think＋句子的剩余部分”。注意，题中who作主语，所以仍用陈述句式。

　　14．—How about your trip to Italy?

　　—Oh，________ the fine weather，we enjoyed ourselves indeed.

　　A．but for

　　B．thanks to

　　C．in spite of

　　D．because of

　　答案：B　句意：——你们的意大利之行怎么样？——噢，多亏了天气好，我们的确玩得很开心。此空要用thanks to表示“多亏了”；but for表示“要不是……的话”；in spite of表示“尽管……”；because of“因为”表示直接原因，不合题意，故选B。

　　Ⅴ.阅读表达

　　Confidence: you've either got it or you haven't, right? Wrong. Most people learn confidence as they go through life.

　　Even_if_you_are_shaking_like_a_leaf_on_the_inside,_you'll_make_a_lasting_impression_if_you_can_come_across_as_confident. Here are some confidence­building tips.

　　Fake it! If you can pretend that you feel confident when you don't and keep on doing so, your fake confidence will soon turn into real confidence. It only takes a few repetitions of an activity for it to become a habit－so get in the habit of ________.

　　Think it. For an instant encouragement to your self－esteem, recall three things that give you positive emotions. It could be a great compliment somebody paid you, a special time when you felt happy and popular, or when you really excelled (胜过别人) at something. Bringing them to mind will help you to feel good instantly－and when you feel good, you have greater confidence.

　　Focus it. Difficult situations, such as interviews or new jobs, can make you feel shy. If you're feeling anxious about yourself, stop thinking about yourself and focus on something else. It could be that you focus on something normal, like the view out of the window, or that you pay more attention to the task at hand－getting the job! Either way, you'll feel less awkward.

　　Talk it. If you keep telling yourself that you're not good at something, you'll start to believe it. Next time you blame yourself, ask yourself whether you'd talk to your friends like that. So quit being negative and start recognizing and appreciating the things you are good at.

　　Walk it. Great posture can signal great confidence. Walk with a purposeful stride, walk with your back straight and with your head held up high!

　　Ⅵ.书面表达

　　最近，很多中学生都纷纷开起了自己的博客。一方面，博客可以作为展示自己的窗口，可以释放学习的压力，因此已经被越来越多的中学生所接受。但是，另一方面，很多家长和老师都认为管理个人博客要花相当多的时间和精力，会耽误学习。

　　请对这一现象进行简要介绍，并发表自己的看法。

　　注意： 词数120～150

　　参考词汇： 开博客open one's blog

　　开头已给出，不计入总词数：

　　Nowadays, it is a common phenomenon that more and more high school students open their own blogs on the Internet.______________________________________________

　　______________________________________________

　　______________________________________________

　　______________________________________________

　　______________________________________________

　　______________________________________________

　　答案：

　　Nowadays, it is a common phenomenon that more and more high school students open their own blogs on the Internet. There are advantages and disadvantages about this matter.

　　For one thing, it provides them a colorful window to show their talents and a way for them to relax, which makes it more and more popular among high school students. But many parents and teachers are worried about it. They fear that managing a blog will take a lot of time and energy, which will have a side effect on their lessons.

　　In my opinion, I do approve of this activity because the Internet is playing a more important and essential part in our daily life. In an age of information, we high school students have to learn and make the most of this useful tool to communicate and display ourselves. More importantly, opening and organizing an eye­catching blog needs various abilities such as writing, designing, being skillful at computer and so on. Only if we master those abilities can we make a successful blog, thus we improve ourselves during the course of maintaining our blogs.
