Ⅳ.阅读填空(每空不超过三个单词)
Twenty years ago, the prosperous high street(繁华商业区) was the heart of most cities. It was filled with a variety of shops, which were crowded with customers. But that's all changed. Nowadays, high streets are declining, with very few shops and very few shoppers. With about 14 shops shutting down every day, Britain's high streets are starting to look like ghost towns! High streets are dying little by little in the UK.
So, why are high streets in such a desperate situation? It's fairly easy to understand. To start with, people are spending less because of the economic recession(衰退). On top of that, more and more people are using the Internet to do their shopping. And it is not easy for shopkeepers in the high streets, either, who have to pay increasing high rents.
Finally, there are the outoftown retail parks with free car parking that sell just about everything at very low prices.
So, what can be done? Prime Minister David Cameron has hired Mary Portas, a British businesswoman and star of TV show Mary Queen of Shops, to bring some life back into Britain's high streets. She's talked about creating “magnets(磁石)” to attract people back to the centre. But he is not the only one to solve the problem. In one town, a bicycle rickshaw (人力车)service is delivering people's shopping to their homes. In another town, they set up a nursery, where children can be cared for while parents are shopping.
Members of the public have also voiced their opinions. “My ideal shopping centre is one where there's a wide selection of attractive looking shops, with cheap parking and good public transport links,” said Mike, a 28yearold man. “I'd like to see Night Shopping evenings where shops are open through to 10 pm or later,” said Amy, a 22yearold girl.

Unit 1
Ⅰ.1. D 考查间接引语中的语序。宾语从句要求使用陈述句语序,而非一般疑问句语序。故此题答案为D。
2. D 考查冠词。best 前的定冠词可以省略;“be +of+名词”结构常用于表示人或事物所具有的性质、特征等。在本结构中,抽象名词前通常不加冠词。
3. A 考查连词。until 在肯定句中意为“到……为止”。动作follow the main road一直延续到达火车站。
4. C 考查动词短语意义辨析。deal with意为“处理,应付”,符合句意。search for 寻找; take charge of 主管,负责; look back on 回顾。
5. B 考查名词词义辨析。for the benefit of sb.为固定搭配,意为“为了某人的利益,为了帮助某人”。句意:我已经帮上周未能听讲座的那些人打印了一些笔记。
6. A 考查动词用法。persuade sb. to do sth. 意为“说服某人做某事”,符合句意。arrange 安排; suggest 建议; support 支持。
7. C 考查介词搭配。trick sb. into doing sth. 诱使某人做某事;fall for 上……的当,受……的骗。
8. D 考查副词词义辨析。句意:我们队输了,可我们已经尽力了,这也不失为一场好球。though作副词,常置于句末,表示“不过,然而”。somehow 不知怎么地; altogether 完全; forever 永远。
9. C 考查动词用法。treat“治疗,处理”之意,强调治疗的过程,而cure“治愈”之意,强调治疗的结果。
10. B 考查形容词词义辨析。skilful意为“熟练的”,符合句意。enjoyable 愉快的; independent 独立的; distant 遥远的。
11. C 考查非谓语动词。gain 和experience 是逻辑上的动宾关系,故用gain的v.ed 形式作后置定语。
12. D 考查时态。从I saw him yesterday可知,昨天之前“我”有几个月没有见到他,故用过去完成时。
13. B 考查状语从句。句意:我喜欢早到公司半个小时,为的是有时间吃早餐。so that 此处引导目的状语从句。in case 万一; even if 即使; as if 好像。
14. A 考查定语从句。where引导定语从句,并在从句中作地点状语,相当于from which。
15. D 考查时态呼应。宾语从句的动作先于learned的动作,故宾语从句谓语动词要用过去完成时态,后面又有一个段时间状语,故不能用短暂动词leave,从而判定答案为D。
Ⅱ.A 1. D 结合后面举的例子可知很多名人在经历全面破产之后却迎来了事业的成功,故答案选D。
2. B 根据常识判断,只有在生意失败之后才会破产。
3. C pay off是“还清”之意,符合语境。
4. D in reality是“事实上”的意思。
5. C 乐队的经纪人起诉乐队成员要求赔偿其8万美元。
6. A be forced to do sth.意为“被迫做某事”。
7. D hit在此用作名词,指“成功而风行一时的事物”。
8. D 破产属于财政问题。
9. A 根据because可知,她是因为没有按合同办事而被迫赔钱。
10. B 从carry out an agreement to star in Boxing Helena可以看出Kim Basinger是个电影演员,故选B项。
11. C create在此是“创造、塑造(人物)”之意。
12. D close down是“倒闭”之意。后面一句With nothing to do有提示。
B 1. while 并列连词while在此表示对比。
2. If 从属连词if引导一个条件状语从句。
3. over move over朝……方向移动。
4. The 形容词最高级前应用定冠词the。
5. as be known as 意为“被称之为”。
6. Up 固定短语up to意为 “多达……”。
7. that/which 定语从句缺少关系代词。此处先行词为物故用that或which引导定语从句。
8. for 短语be responsible for意为“对……负责”。
.1. A 细节理解题。根据第一款产品中的Manufacturer: Motorola可知这款产品是由Motorola公司生产的。

5. B 细节理解题。根据Onestop online store for all your Bluetooth Car Kits(设备).可知这些产品都采用了蓝牙技术。
.1. Britain's 概括信息题。根据全文可知本文主要讲英国的繁华商业区正在走向衰亡。
