　　解析：句中的it代表car。如果看作强调句，那么答句和问句句意不符。while引导的是时间状语从句。问句句意：你在博物馆内参观时车就停放在博物馆门前吗？此题易错看作强调句，错选A项。

　　答案：D

　　11．—It has been nationwidely required that every student ______ have daily exercise for one hour.

　　A．must；should pay

　　B．should；paid

　　C．will；shall pay

　　D．need；pay

　　解析：主句的动词是require，that引导的主语从句中用虚拟语气“should＋动词原形”；第二个空考查it’s high time that...从句中用虚拟语气“过去式或should＋动词原形”(注意：此结构中的should不可省略)。

　　答案：B

　　12．Mr.zhang is such a considerate person______all his colleagues like to work with.

　　A．that

　　B．so

　　C．which

　　D．as

　　解析：此处work with缺少宾语，as在这里是关系代词，引导定语从句，作with的宾语。

　　答案：D

　　13．—You ought to have called him yesterday.

　　—Yes，I know I ______.

　　A．should

　　B．have to

　　C．must have

　　D．should have

　　解析：考查对过去推测。I should have是对I should have called him的省略。

　　答案：D

　　14．—She should have been informed of the meeting.

　　—______，but she wouldn’t like to attend this meeting.

　　A．Yes，she should

　　B．So she was

　　C．So was she

　　D．So it was with her

　　解析：考查“so ＋主语＋助动词”的用法。强调“的确有人通知她了，但是她不想参加这个会议”。上句中should have done sth.表示“本该做的事而没有做”，而答语说的是事实，并且上下两句的主语是同一个人，因此选B项。选项A最具有迷惑性，学生容易受思维定势的影响。

　　答案：B

　　15．The thing I like ______ working here is that there’s a great team spirit.

　　A．with

　　B．over

　　C．at

　　D．about

　　解析：考查介词的用法。about此处表示“关于，就……而言”。I like about working here作定语从句修饰the thing。句意：强烈的团队精神是我喜欢在这里工作的原因。

　　答案：D

　　The Highways Agency has made plans to switch off lights on the M1 between junction 10 at Luton and junction 13 at Milton Keynes between midnight and 5 am.The move to turn lights off on the lightly­used Britain’s motorway network was one of the first ideas to appear after the agency asked the public for money­saving ideas.

　　“We think there will be a number of operational issues，”said Andrew Howard，the AA’s head of road safety.“Where you can and can’t be is controlled by signals and without lights there is a greater chance that people will make a mistake.”

　　Brake，the road safety charity(慈善团体)，also voiced concern.“Although there are fewer accidents on our motorways due to the way these roads are engineered，when accidents do happen on these roads，they are much more likely to involve multiple deaths and serious injuries because of the high speeds involved，”a spokesman said.“Road casualties are not only a disaster for the families involved，but a huge economic burden，so turning lights off has safety risk and it could turn out to be an inhumane experiment.”

　　The Department for Transport has been keen to cut running costs and turning off the lights has been successfully tested on parts of the M2，M4，M5 and M27.Switching the lights off is also seen as having the additional advantage of cutting carbon emissions.Similar initiatives have been tried by a number of local authorities on local roads with mixed results.

　　Powys Council in Wales was forced to ditch its experiment of turning off more than half its 1,400 lights off at night after a wave of protests from the public.Elsewhere many councils have chosen to install equipment which dims lights rather than switching them off altogether.

　　However，Derek Turner，the Highways Agency director，defended the move and insisted motorists would not be put at risk.“Since 2009 we’ve switched lighting off between the hours of midnight and 5 am on 14 carefully­selected motorways and evidence so far shows that switching off the lights hasn’t had an impact on safety，”he said.“In March this year we also began permanently switching off motorway lights at three sites.The money saved could then be used for other measures on the strategic road network where it would have a more significant safety benefit and potentially save more lives.”

　　在英国，有关部门打算从午夜到凌晨五点期间关闭部分高速公路上的灯，对于这种做法，众说纷纭。

　　5．What do we know from Paragraph 1?

　　A．All lights on Britain’s motorways will be off between midnight and 5 am.

　　B．The British motorway network is busy during night hours.

　　C．Most British people support the move of turning off motorway lights.

　　D．Cutting costs is the main purpose of turning lights off on motorways.

　　解析：细节理解题。根据第一段The move to turn lights off...after the agency asked the public for money­saving ideas可知，答案为D项。

　　答案：D

　　6．What is Andrew Howard’s attitude towards the move of turning lights off on motorways?

　　A．Worried.

　　B．Indifferent.

　　C．Supportive.

　　D．Neutral.

　　解析：推理判断题。根据第二段Where you can and can’t be is controlled by signals and without lights there is a greater chance that people will make a mistake可推断，答案为A项。
