　　A.a；the　B.a；a

　　C.the；a

　　D.the；the

　　解析：考查冠词的用法。第一空处有描述性定语，用a，作为一部关于痛苦、奋斗、希望与爱的美丽影片；第二空处用the表示限定，《贫民窟的百万富翁》赢得最佳图片奖。

　　答案：A

　　2.The old worker insisted that he old and that he back to the working post again.

　　A.wasn't；be sent

　　B.wasn't；was sent

　　C.be not；send

　　D.isn't；sent

　　解析：insisted后跟的第一个从句是陈述事实，故用真实语气，第二个that从句为建议或要求，用(should) be done形式表示虚拟语气。

　　答案：A

　　3.—I can't find my purse anywhere.

　　—You have lost it while shopping.

　　A.may

　　B.can

　　C.should

　　D.would

　　解析：考查情态动词的用法。句意：“我到处找不到我的钱包。”“购物时，你可能把它丢了。”由句意可知这是对过去发生的事情的一种可能性的推断，可知要用may have done形式；can常用在否定句或疑问句中表推断；should have done表示“本应该做……，但实际未做”，不符合题意；would have done表示一种与过去事实相反的虚拟语气。

　　答案：A

　　4.you've got a chance of showing yourself，you might as well make good use of it.

　　A.Now that

　　B.After

　　C.Although

　　D.As soon as

　　解析：now that“既然”，引导原因状语从句。句意：既然你得到一个展示自己的机会，不妨充分利用它。although引导让步状语从句，意为“虽然”，与句意不符，after 与as soon as引导的是时间状语从句。

　　A.beat

　　B.to beat

　　A.interested

　　This is the VOA Special English Education Report.A few weeks ago，we talked about the Test of English as a Foreign Language，or TOEFL.A listener in Cambodia named Thida asks if American colleges and universities also accept IELTS.IELTS is the International English Language Testing System.It was developed by the University of Cambridge ESOL examiners.

　　Cambridge ESOL says the test measures truetolife ability to communicate in English for education，immigration or employment.IELTS tests listening，reading，writing and speaking skills.It uses a mixture of accents and spellings，including British English and American English.

　　The test is used by government agencies，schools and professional organizations in one hundred and twenty countries.And，yes，that includes the United States.The many American schools that accepted IELTS can be found on the Web at ielts.org.

　　Some schools accept both TOEFL and IELTS，but the graduate school at Duke University in Durham，North Carolina，for example，says it prefers IELTS.

　　The listening and speaking parts are the same for everyone who takes IELTS，but people have a choice of reading and writing tests—either academic or general training.

　　The listening test takes thirty minutes.There are forty questions based on a recording.

　　The reading test takes sixty minutes.Students answer forty questions based on three written passages.

　　The writing test also takes sixty minutes.Students have to write two essays.One essay has to be at least one hundred and fifty words long and the other at least two hundred and fifty words.The shorter one is description of something；the longer one has to support and argue.

　　The speaking test takes less than fifteen minutes.The score is based on a recorded talk between the student and a test examiner.

　　And that's the VOA Special English Education Report，written by Nancy Steinbach.If you have a general question for our series，write to special@voanews.com.I'm Barbara Klein.

　　答案：C

　　B

　　Iceland has the highest birth rate in Europe，

　　the highest divorce rate，and the highest

　　percentage of women working outside the

　　home.Such statistics are often evidence of

　　a miserable，chaotic society，with loads of children，broken homes and absent mothers.But Iceland is the exception－its citizens are apparently the happiest in the world.

　　New rankings from the United Nations Development Program's Human Development Index rate Iceland as the best country in the world in which to live.

　　Perhaps the country's geographic location contributes to Icelanders' happiness.Located in the middle of the North Atlantic，with Greenland as its nearest neighbor，Iceland is free from the taboos that cause so much distress elsewhere.For instance，people who divorce are not looked down upon by society.

　　Icelanders are offspring (后代) of the Vikings，a north European people who invaded European coasts from the 8th through the 10th century.This tradition of getting out into the world lives on in modernday Iceland.Practically all Icelanders have studied or worked abroad，and most speak English.

　　Perhaps as a result，Iceland's economic policies blend the best of those from Europe and the US to create its own welfare system.

　　“Many of us have lived in the US，and studied there，” said the Icelandic Prime Minister Geir Haarde.“We have both taken from them and found that naturally we share the cando attitude－that if you work hard，anything can be done.”

　　Indeed，the country is rich in writers，painters，film makers and accomplished musicians.There's Sigur Ros，a postrock band，and also a national symphony orchestra that plays to the highest standards all over the world.Half the population appears to have written a book.

　　“Iceland has harsh(恶劣) nature，with its bitter everchanging weather，” said Haraldur Jonsson，a painter，sculptor and video and performance artist.“We cannot escape it.So we find ways.We have to have a rich internal life to fill the empty spaces.”

　　5.It is commonly believed that high birth rate and divorce rate will bring about .

　　A.social problems

　　B.happiness

　　C.a unique welfare system

　　D.modern way of life

　　解析：根据第一段内容可知答案。

　　答案：A

　　6.What does the underlined word “blend” in the fifth paragraph mean？

　　A.Combine.

　　B.Choose.

　　C.Copy.

　　D.Carry.

　　解析：根据后面的内容“from Europe and the US to create its own welfare system”可知答案。

　　答案：A

　　7.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the reason for Icelanders' happiness？

　　A.Geographic location.

　　B.A rich internal life.

　　C.National pride.

　　D.Freedom from taboos.

　　解析：第三段提到了A和D两项，最后一段提到了B，可知答案选C。

　　答案：C

　　8.What is the most suitable to fill in the blank in the last paragraph？

　　A.to get rid of it

　　B.to have it changed

　　C.to get away from it

　　D.to live with it

　　解析：冰岛的气候条件是无法改变的，人们只能去适应它。

　　答案：D

　　Ⅳ.书面表达

　　参考范文：

　　Recently，people in our city had a discussion about whether it is right to keep a pet dog.

　　Some people think dogs are our loyal friends.For one thing，dogs can keep company with people.For another，they can help people；for example，they can guide the way for the blind.However，some other people disagree.They think dog waste can pollute the environment and some dogs may bite people and cause diseases，which is dangerous to us.

　　In my opinion，people have the right to keep their pet dogs.But at the same time，the dog owners should make sure their pets won't cause trouble to others.
