　　一、单项填空

　　—How did you do in your essay?

　　—I got ____ okay grade, but Mr. Jones gave Sarah top marks. She's ____ teacher's pet, you know.

　　A． 不填; a B． an; 不填 C． 不填; the D． an; a

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】 考查冠词。第一空 okay 前面应用 an 表示“一个相当好的分数”；第二空表示“她是老师的宠儿”，表示泛指，故用a。

　　Games, often seen as ____ activity for children, are still important in ____ development of teenagers.

　　A．the; the B．an; the C．an; 不填 D．the; 不填

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】

　　考查冠词用法。语意：游戏经常被看做是孩子的活动，在青少年的发展过程中仍然很重要。activity 是可数名词，此处表示泛指，因此用不定冠词 an；development 后有限定语，所以用定冠词表特指。

　　—Hi, Wang Xin! What attracts you so much in today's Jinling Evening News?

　　—I'm quite impressed by ____ latest news that ____ senior citizens can enjoy free fares.

　　A．a; the B．不填; the C．the;不填 D．the; the

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　考查冠词。latest 是形容词最高级，且此处表特指，前面应使用定冠词；senior citizens 是复数名词表示泛指，前面不用冠词，因此选择C项。This area experienced ______ heaviest rainfall in ______ month of May.

　　A．不填; a B．a; the C．the; the D．the; a

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　考查冠词。最高级形容词前用定冠词，故第一空用 the；后一空处有 of 结构限定，故也用定冠词。Jasper is a great painter.

　　He is ____ Picasso.

　　A． the same great as B． as great painter as

　　C. as great a painter as D． such great a painter as

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　语意表示 Jasper 是和 Picasso 一样伟大的画家，在 as / so... as 结构中，冠词位于形容词之后，在 such… as 结构中，冠词紧跟 such，故选C项。The 16th Asian Games were held in ____ city of Guangzhou, ____ international big city in the south of China in November.

　　A． a; an B． the; an C． a; the D． the; the

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】

　　考查冠词。第一空特指广州这座城市，故用定冠词 the；第二空泛指“一个国际化大都市”，用不定冠词 an。故选B项。

　　It’s ____ wise choice to use a four wheel drive car on ____ snowy day.

　　A．a; a B．the; / C．/; a D．the; the

　　【答案】A

　　【解析】

　　考查冠词用法。第一空表示泛指，指一个明智的选择，所以用不定冠词a；第二空处表示一个雪天，表示泛指，所以其前也用不定冠词a。

　　When I went to watch the 16th Asian Games last month, I was greatly touched by the fact that ____ people from all walks of life are working hard for ____ new Guangzhou.

　　A．the; a B．／; a C．the; the D．／; the

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】

　　If we sit near____ front of the bus, we’ll have ____ better view.

　　A．不填；the B．the；不填 C．a; the D．the; a

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】

　　考查冠词的用法。第一空用定冠词，the front of the bus 表示“公交车（内部）的前面”；第二空用不定冠词表示泛指，have a better view 表示“看得更清楚”。

　　It is ____ great honor for China to develop ____ fastest computer in today’s world.

　　A．an; an B．an; the C．a; the D．a; a

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　考查冠词。句意：中国研发出如今世界上最快的电脑，这真是一件令人荣幸的事。第一空为抽象名词具体化，要加不定冠词，又因为 great 是以辅音音素开头的单词，应该用a；第二空形容词最高级前要用定冠词。

　　二、 完型填空

　　Today’s English learner has a wide choice of dictionaries. There are

　　36

　　with American English, with British English, with idioms or slang, and

　　37

　　with pictures. One of the most

　　38

　　dictionaries I have seen among many students is the

　　39

　　electronic dictionary. All you have to do is to

　　40

　　a word in your language and you can see it and

　　41

　　it in English. That’s great, right? Well, I think it’s great, too... but only sometimes.

　　Bilingual electronic dictionaries are fast and

　　42

　　. They can be great

　　43

　　you are traveling and need information quickly.

　　44

　　I am against electronic dictionaries and even bilingual

　　45

　　dictionaries in many cases. Let me explain.

　　When you reach an intermediate（中等程度的）level of English, you know

　　46

　　of the language to ask the meaning of certain things while using English. Translating between Languages in your head

　　47

　　time. You should be translating as little as possible and

　　48

　　in English as much as possible. I strongly recommend that intermediate and advanced students should

　　49

　　an English-English dictionary that is made

　　50

　　for your understanding. For example, Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press has good dictionaries for students and

　　51

　　publishing houses do, too.

　　I also feel that paper dictionaries are better for studying than electronic dictionaries. True, they take longer to use. But, for some reason, the information you

　　52

　　seems to stay in your read longer. It may be

　　53

　　you are forced to spell the word in your head and therefore "see it" more clearly in your

　　54

　　.

　　So what do you do if you have checked an English-English dictionary and still don’t understand something? Go to your bilingual dictionary. It is useful sometimes. Just remember to try to

　　55

　　in English as much as possible.

　　第三部分：阅读理解

　　A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.

　　By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early on were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated（沮丧）and inflexible（固守己见的）.

　　Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn’t show up on an IQ test.

　　The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists’ concerns. But brain theory can’t explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.

　　Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people’s success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”.

　　EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one’s ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients(要素) for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.

　　While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.

　　71. The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that

　　.

　　A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiment

　　B. emotional intelligence won’t show up until adolescence

　　C. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success

　　D. candy can be used to measure a person’s emotional intelligence

　　72. Which of the following is true of EQ and IQ according to the text?

　　A. The higher a person’s EQ is, the higher his or her IQ is.

　　B. The higher a person’s IQ is, the higher his or her EQ is.

　　C. Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either.

　　D. Scientists have already discovered the way in which EQ and IQ work together.

　　73. The underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means

　　.

　　A. kind

　　B. floating

　　C. excited

　　D. optimistic

　　74.Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?

　　A. To amuse both the children and readers.

　　B. To prove the scientist’s wisdom.

　　C. To introduce the topic of the text.

　　D. To show us how to do an IQ test.

　　75.What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?

　　A. Information about famous people with high EQ.

　　B. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.

　　C. Some reasons why EQ is a relatively new field.

　　D. Strong demand for basic emotional education.

　　【解题导语】

　　这篇文章讲述了情商所起的重要作用、它与智商的关系以及人们应如何看待。

　　71．C 推理判断题。从文章第二段的第二句可推出答案为C。

　　72．C 正误判断题。从倒数第二段的第一句EQ is not the opposite of IQ．可知EQ和IQ并没有相对立的关系．由此可判断C项正确。

　　73．D猜测词义题。从画线词所在句后面的内容困难可打倒意志不坚定的人可猜测出upbeat是乐观的意思。

　　74．C

　　写作意图题。文章从：makt an experiment人手，从而引出作者要谈及的话题EQ和lQ。

　　75．B文章结构题。从文章的最后部分some few fear EQ invitesmisuse可推出，下文最有可能谈及少数人对EQ持否定态度的例子。
