　　B． can't

　　C. may

　　D． ought to

　　—Is Jack on duty today?

　　—It ____ be him; it's his turn tomorrow.

　　A．must's B．won't C．can't D．needn't

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　考查情态动词。根据答语的后半句可知“一定不是他值日”，can 表示推测时经常用于否定句或疑问句中。mustn't 表示禁止，不能用来表示推测。

　　The traffic is heavy these days. I ____ arrive a bit late, so could you save me a place?

　　A．can B．must C．need D．might

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】

　　考查情态动词。根据前一句中的内容可知说话人“可能”晚到一会儿，此处表示的是不太肯定的推测，故用 might。

　　—Can I get out in the daytime?

　　—No. The school rules state that no child ____ be allowed out during the day, unless accompanied by an adult.

　　A．shall B．need C．will D．can

　　A．shouldn’t have come B．should not come

　　C．didn’t need to come D．wouldn’t have come

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　考查情态动词。由答语可知会议已经取消了，Thomas 过去也就不必出席学校的会议，故用 "didn't need to do sth."，选C项。

　　—The terrible accident is under investigation.

　　—Actually, quicker action ____ those workers trapped in the mine.

　　A．might have saved B．must have saved

　　C．ought to have saved D．should have saved

　　【答案】A

　　【解析】

　　考查情态动词。根据语意“快速行动也许可以救那些被困矿工”可知，此处表示“很可能，或许”，用 might have done。B项 must have done 表示“过去一定做过某事”，C和D项表示“过去本该做某事”都与语境不符。

　　For the engine to work, the green button ____ be in the "on" position.

　　A．can B．would C．must D．might

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　考查情态动词。句意：想要让发动机工作，必须将绿色的按钮放在 "on" 的位置。根据句意可知，显然只有C项符合题意。

　　If the dog hadn't woken us, we wouldn't have noticed the fire and it ____ to the house next door.

　　A．could spread

　　B．should have spread

　　C．would spread

　　D．might have spread

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】

　　考查虚拟语气。句意：如果那条狗当时没有叫醒我们，我们就不会注意到火灾，大火可能会蔓延到隔壁的房子。此处是对过去的推测，所以用“情态动词+have done”结构，再根据所给语境可知是“可能发生了某事”，因此用 might have done。

　　Cathy went to the hospital alone. If she had told me about it, I ____ with her.

　　A．had gone B．would have gone C．would go D．went

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】

　　考查虚拟语气。根据题意可知，这是表示与过去的事实相反的虚拟条件句。从句用 "had told..."，主句应用 "would have gone..."。即B项正确。句意：Cathy 一个人去医院了。如果她告诉我，我就和她一起去了。

　　Some young people these days just ____ go out of their homes to contact the real world.

　　A．mustn't

　　B: won't C．mightn't D．shouldn't

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】

　　考查情态动词。语意：现在一些年轻人不愿意出去接触真实的世界。此处 won't 表示“不愿意”；mustn't 表示“禁止，不可以”，mightn't表示“可能不”；shouldn't 表示“不应该”。根据语意选B项。二、 完型填空

　　第三部分：阅读理解

　　In a world where comparisons happen non-stop, it is difficult to look outside yourself and to ever be content with who you are. There's always someone who's a bit better. The only solution is to reach inside and measure against what Warren Buffett calls your own inner yardstick. There is no more accurate measure for comparison than who you were yesterday, last week or last decade, when you were at your best.

　　Nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. Either you see yourself as better than someone and you get lazy, or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like all your hard work is for nothing. It is a fool's game. None of us are inherently above or below the person next to us. We are who we are. Not one of us is exactly alike. The only direct and honest comparison is within yourself. Everything else is apples to oranges.

　　My opinion is that you are only allowed to compare yourself to someone else if their life situation is the same as your own. Good luck finding that match. And one thing is for sure. No matter how hard you work and how dedicated you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little better or look a little nicer in a swimsuit. And if there's not, you can bet someone is coming up fast behind you. So how can you always win in life? Become your best competitor.

　　The following are the reasons why you are your own best competitor.

　　1. You will always be motivated.

　　Having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to push you to the next level. If you ran 7 flights of stairs yesterday, then do 8 today. Who cares if the guy next to you did 15? It doesn't make a bit of difference. You are a more fit person today than you were yesterday. Your own progress is all you need.

　　2. You will continuously be your personal best.

　　If you commit to a slightly higher standard of yourself every day, you will always be at the top of your game. And that game will only get better. But if for some reason you fall off your mark, you will always have the past image of your best performance to show you what you're capable of. Once you've lone it, you know what's possible and then it's just a matter of doing it again.

　　52. Through the passage the writer advises the readers to ____.

　　A. avoid comparison with others

　　B. work much harder

　　C. pay attention to others' progress

　　D. make full use of motivation

　　53. If you want to achieve your best, according to the author, you should ____.

　　A. see yourself better than others

　　B. measure accurately

　　C. compare with yourself

　　D. be honest with yourself

　　54. Which of the following is certain to happen according to the author?

　　A. Finding someone else who is in the same life situation as you are.

　　B. Finding someone who runs faster and jumps higher than you.

　　C. Finding someone who is hiding right behind you.

　　D. Finding someone who almost always wins in their life.

　　55. What can help you up to higher level in your life according to the passage?

　　A. Comparing yourself with the guy next to you.

　　B. Thinking about your own progress.

　　C. Promising to play a game every day.

　　【解题导语】

　　这是一篇议论文。我们总是拿自己与别人进行比较，这样一来就会使自己总不满意，而正确办法是拿自己的现在与自己的过去进行比较，我们自己才是自己最好的竞争者。

　　52.答案：A

　　考查主旨大意。全文的核心话题是：不要拿自己与别人进行比较，因为每个人的情况都不一样。正确的办法是拿自己的现在与自己的过去、自己曾经的最佳状态进行比较。因此作者的建议应是A。

　　53.答案：C

　　考查推理判断。通读全文可知本文作者的观点是：不要拿自己与别人进行比较，而是与自己原先的状态进行比较，这样你就会使自己处于最佳状态，故C项正确。

　　54.答案：B

　　考查细节理解。第三段说，能找到这样的人，算你运气好，意思是很难找到与你的生活状况一样的人，故不选A项；后面接着说，有一件事是肯定的，不管你工作多么努力，你总能找到比你跑得快，比你跳得高，比你得分高，或穿着游泳衣比你更好看的人，如果你找不出，我敢打赌，有人马上就要追上来了。由此判断选B。

　　55.答案：D

　　考查细节理解。根据 "Having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to push you to the next level." 可知答案为D。
