Young people in the United States are falling behind their overseas peers in reading, maths and science, President Barack Obama said on Saturday, calling education reform an essential part of economic recovery. In his weekly radio and video address, Obama said as many as a quarter of American students are not 37 high school and far too few young people are getting college degrees. "It is an 38 fact that countries who out-educate us today will out-compete us tomorrow. Businesses will hire wherever the highly skilled, highly trained workers are located," the Democrat said. "We have to 39 up our game and raise our standards." With the 2012 campaign for the US presidency heating up, Obama is speaking 40 often about education, a key issue for his political base. His $447 billion job creation plan includes money for hiring teachers and school repairs, and on Friday he announced a 41 of "No Child Left Behind", a decade-old education measure introduced by former President George W. Bush that seeks to hold schools 42 for students' performance. "No Child" has been widely 43 for being inflexible, requiring teachers to adhere to a narrow curriculum 44 mostly at ensuring that students pass standardised tests. "Experience has taught us that the law has some serious 45 that are hurting our children instead of helping them," Obama said, making plain that education will be one of his key 46 issues into the vote in 2012. "These problems have been obvious to parents and educators all over this country for years. But for years, Congress has failed to fix them. So now, I will," he said.

Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2. How to Build Team Spirit and Get Best Sales Performance A. It is a well-known fact that an organisation can achieve a greater success if a few people get united and work towards a goal together. An ordinary team can perform better provided they are motivated. There are many instances, where a team approach has succeeded better compared to an organisation which is riddled with politics and managers who only think about themselves. In fact this is a basic problem among Indians as they always tend to develop "Frog Syndrome". The frog syndrome does not allow other colleagues to go up in the ladder, which leads the organisation to become an ordinary organisation. Today the biggest problem in India many companies are facing is how to develop team spirit among people. This is a very crucial point for the organisation to make difference in today's highly competitive environment. How can we develop such things today? Of course, there are many ways which are given below. Develop team not individual only B. The role of manager is to ensure that the people become cohesive (有 凝聚力的) and feel proud to be the member of the team. It is quite possible provided the manager himself is a team leader. He has to set the right target, create enthusiasm among the people, develop a positive attitude among the people and motivate them at the right time. If done, it is nothing succeeds like Success. Right team spirit C. Right team spirit brings within the organisation a vibrant feeling to an insider as well as outsider. There is always willingness to walk an extra mile among people to achieve the set objective. This leads to more congenial (令人愉快的) atmosphere within the organisation. How many companies have succeeded in doing the same? Does it bring smile to an ordinary person working in the organisation? If yes, that organisation really can survive for a longer time. SMILE within the organisation D. A happy employee always tends to achieve better. Many companies tend to take care of external customers but tend to forget the internal customers. Hence, companies should do retrospective analysis on satisfaction level of the internal employees. But how many companies bother to do that? A real smile can help the organisation to achieve better sales. SMILE=sell more in less effort E. How many people can bring a smile on the face of a person? Therefore, there are few organisations which excel. However, this is possible providedthe manager becomes a mentor. Manager should be a mentor to the people F. People always look towards a manager as mentor who can correct, guide and give constructive criticism. Manager should go where the colleagues working under him require him to go. He should help his colleagues during the need of the hour. Can a manager develop himself to be a mentor so that people can rely on his advice? A manager, if redevelop himself as a mentor, can definitely bring the team spirit among the people. But how many managers can be a mentor? Many times a manager himself is a grumbler (爱发牢骚的人) and creates a polluted environment within the organisation as his personality may not be fit to do a particular job. Therefore, a manager should analyse his own personality along with his colleagues' and ensure that his personality along with his colleagues' personality be suited to do the particular job. Application of sales grid (网) approaches will definitely help him to understand his own personality as well as his colleagues'. This analysis can help to take corrective action and will create a greater sense of responsibility and motivation among the people. We must motivate ourselves to motivate others. G. This is possible provided a manager make the job more challenging. In fact during the recent survey conducted by the author in India, the No.1 motivator factor is job enrichment. How many managers try to create innovations in their job functions of their colleagues and associates? How many managers remove the fear of instability? How many managers ask themselves what new things they or their teams have done? If this is done regularly, the demotivation does not arise. Ordinary people can perform extraordinary things provided they bring the motivation and team spirit among the people. This is quite possible and a manager has a role to play. He should be proactive (主动的) in building team spirit and take action. Recognise team destroyers and take corrective measures H. There are certain people who because of the past experience can destroy the team spirit. Therefore, it is suggested that managers should identify "this grumbler" at right time and take corrective measures immediately. The cancerous cell should not be allowed to develop or proliferate (扩散). Proper counselling can help the manager to correct the situation. He should not develop a dual personality. For example, in the office the tap is leaking, however, he does not bother as he feels that it is the job of administration but when he goes home he makes sure that the leakage of the tap is corrected. The dichotomy (分裂) behaviour of the person cannot help him to develop team spirit. The manager should develop fatherhood of a spastic (痉挛的) child who is very caring, understanding his child. He has to therefore correct him, mend him with hope that the future will be bright. Educate the colleague doing the work in a positive manner I. Managers must educate a colleague while working. The recent study among the field force revealed that the field representatives like to have a leader who is good at product knowledge and selling skills. During the visit of a leader if he ensures that he gives one or two new points to his colleagues, then the interaction between the two becomes more fruitful. Fox example, if a zonal manager visits his team he may take up the product training in the conference or during the field work followed by a written test of the same subject. This concept was tried by the author in one of his client's companies wherein he noticed that the representative never used to respect his senior because of his lack of knowledge on the product. This process of inculcating (教授) the habit of interactions between the two brought a better team spirit and respect for each other. This activity resulted into higher productivity of the area. 47、 One influence the analysis about a manager's personality and his colleagues, may have on them is that they will be more responsible and motivated. 48、 The "cancerous cell" in the passage refers to people who destroy the team spirit. 49、 For some Indian companies, the problem that needs to be solved urgently is how to build team spirit among staff. 50、 Companies should devote themselves to making their employees happy because it can help them achieve better sales. 51、 Field representatives would like their manager having a good command of product knowledge and selling skills, according to a recent study. 52、 Managers in the Indian companies usually hinder the way of other colleagues' career development. 53、 The manager develops himself as the team leader may increase the possibility of the people feeling proud to be a member of a team. 54、 The most effective motivator factor in Indian workplace is job enrichment. 55、 A manager should not develop a dual personality because it is not good for the development of team spirit. 56、 It is difficult for many managers to become a mentor who can offer reliable advice to their colleagues at the right time. Section C Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage One As high school students flock to social networking sites, campus police are scanning their Facebook and MySpace pages for tips to help break up fights, monitor gangs and prevent crime. Some students object to police looking over their shoulders. But officers responsible for school safety say routine checks of the online forums often add to the knowledge they obtain from hallways or schoolyards. In recent years, school administrators have blamed some campus fights on Internet conflicts and urged parents to keep watch on their children's computer activity. But students who use the Web to let their 500 closest friends know what they are doing at all times are sometimes surprised that police are watching, too. Police don't have special privileges on Facebook or MySpace. Students who want to go unobserved can change privacy settings so that their profiles are displayed only to a list of approved people. But the default (默认) settings leave those profiles open to many Internet users (in the case of Facebook) or all of them (in the case of MySpace). Employers and college admissions counselors have examined online profiles of student applicants for some time. Police across the country have been doing the same for the past two or three years, said Kevin Quinn, a spokesman for the Minnesota-based National Association of School Resource Officers. "If you're already familiar with the technology, it doesn't take you but a couple of minutes to hook into the student population and keep an eye on things," Quinn said. An expedition into a thicket (丛林) of MySpace profiles found high school students discussing drugs, sex and fights. It was all publicly available (although in language that caused a reporter to blush). Late last month, Fairfax County police announced the arrests of seven Chantilly area teenagers for trying to recruit Franklin Middle School students to a gang. That investigation was aided when a student showed the school resource officer gang symbols littering one of the suspect's MySpace profiles. Fairfax police say they pride themselves on addressing issues in schools before they develop into major problems. Keeping an eye on Facebook and MySpace has become an extra tool in that effort, they said. 57、 Police officers scan social networking sites like Facebook or MySpace because______. A. they have some special privileges to do so B. they may detect gang-fighting through the Net C. it is easier to solve students' conflicts online D. it is their duty to protect students' privacy 58、 What does "looking over their shoulders" (Line 1, Para. 2) means in the passage? A. Limit their time spending online. C. Monitor what they said online. B. Blame them for the conflicts. D. Make schoolyard checking a routine. 59、 Police can have access to many students' online profiles due to ______. A. students' casual attitude to private information B. the technical support offered by the websites C. the approval given by the students themselves D. the special right granted by the government 60、 How did Fairfax County police identify the teenagers as gang members? A. By investigating the students recruited. B. By sending a policeman to spy on the gang. C. By watching the spot they meet regularly. D. By checking their self-descriptions online. 61、 What does the author mainly discuss in the passage? A. Students' neglect of protecting their privacy online. B. Internet helping police maintain school and public order. C. Social networking sites having bad influence on teenagers. D. Police's unwelcome interference in students' online activities. Passage Two Stiletto heels could be banned from the workplace because of health and safety reasons, according to British Trade Union bosses. The Trade Union Congress, predominantly male, has proposed a motion arguing that high heels are disrespectful to women while they also contribute to long term injuries. They propose instead that women wear "sensible shoes" with an inch heel limit in an attempt to avoid future foot and back pain as well as injuries. The motion is due to be debated at next month's conference. The motion states: "Congress believes high heels may look glamorous on the Hollywood catwalks but are completely inappropriate for the day-to-day working environment." "Feet bear the main burden of daily life, and for many workers prolonged standing, badly fitted footwear, and in particular high heels can be a hazard. Around two million days a year are lost through sickness as a result of lower limb disorders." "Wearing high heels can cause long-term foot problems and also serious foot, knee and back pain and damaged joints." "Many employers in the retail sector force women workers to wear high heels as part of their dress code." "More must be done to raise awareness of this problem so that women workers and their feet are protected." Nadine Dorries, the Tory Member of Parliament, however criticised the motion and said the extra height heels give women can help them when in the workplace. "I'm 5 ft 3 in and need every inch of my Christian Louboutin heels to look my male colleagues in the eye," she said. "If high heels were banned in Westminster, no one would be able to find me. The Trade Union leaders need to get real, stop using obvious sexist tactics (手段) by discussing women's stilettos to divert tension away from Labour chaos." Michelle Dewberry, a former winner of The Apprentice, said the motion was patronising (自认为高人一等的). "This is absolutely ridiculous and I think these union officials should be spending their time dealing with more important issues", she said. "I'm at work in five-inch heels and perfectly able to do my job. Heels are sexy, they boost your confidence and they are empowering to women. I can't imagine these officials debating a motion about how tightly men should wear their ties. Wearing heels is a personal choice." 62、 According to the passage, stiletto heels refer to ______. A. heels most appropriate for catwalks B. shoes that fit retail sector workers best C. heels within the limit of an inch D. very high heels that women wear 63、 Why did the Trade Union leaders propose to ban stiletto heels from the workplace? A. They believed that these shoes are harmful to women workers' health. B. They maintained that women should decide what to wear at work. C. They thought these shoes give women excuse to ask for a sick leave. D. They didn't want to work in the place that looks like Hollywood. 64、 Nadine Dorries disapproved the motion because she felt that the extra height of the heels ______. A. improved her vision B. boosted her confidence C. helped people to find her D. added to her personal charm 65、 How does Michelle Dewberry see the motion? A. It should be supported for the sake of women's health. B. The union officials shouldn't have debates on any motions. C. It's unnecessary and women have right to decide what to wear. D. The union leaders should decide on the tightness of ties instead. 66、 It can be inferred from the passage that ______. A. it's the union leaders' responsibility to care about people's health B. there is going to be a heated debate over the union bosses' motion C. for women employees, height is equal to charm and confidence D. women workers think entirely differently from male union leaders Part ?

Writing 1、[参考范文] The Importance of Independent Thinking In the picture, the boy worries that he cannot find his way back without the GPS, which shocks his mother. And it shows us that with the booming of information technology, various electronic products have been ubiquitous in our life, which on one hand provide great convenience for us, and on the other, gradually make lots of people lose their ability to think independently. As is known to all, independent thinking plays an important role in our life. For one thing, it stimulates people's creativity and innovation abilities, which are the progress boosters of the society. For example, by independent thinking and innovation abilities, Steve Jobs has almost changed the way we communicate, entertain and live. For another, independent thinking can help us judge between right and wrong. Nowadays, the new media like Weibo and WeChat make information available to almost everyone. Therefore, only those who can think independently can see the world clearly. Personally speaking, we should be less dependent on the electronic tools but use our mind more. I think independently, therefore I am independent. Part ? Listening Comprehension Section A 2、C [听力原文] W: Son, I don't know what to get for your father. He has almost everything, doesn't he?

M: How long does it take to go the whole distance? W: It varies. Cyclists are free to go as fast or as slow and do as much or as little of the course as they like. M: Well, what's the typical pace for a participant? W: Between 12 and 30 kilometres per hour. Some cyclists stop along the way and don't cross the finish line until early evening. But the whole point is that there is no rush. It's not a race. M: I understand last year's tour had 45,000 cyclists and it was the largest mass cycling event in the world. How many do you expect this year? W: The same as last year. And since we regularly have so many participants, can I take this opportunity to remind our listeners to sign up early? We filled up quickly last year and we had to refuse lots of applications. M: Before we close any other tips for all prospective cyclists? W: Yes. Take water with you. It is available at the relay station. But it helps to have an additional supply. And pack a good lunch with plenty of fruit for energy. Candy and chocolate don't do the trick. What is the main subject of the conversation? [解析] 选项均为概括性强的名词短语表明，本题可能考查对话的主题。对话开头男士介绍and now here is our guest Jane Thomas to tell us about the Montreal's famous yearly island bicycle tour，并且接下来的对话均是围绕每年的蒙特利尔自行车赛及其选手展开，所 给选项中最能概括其 内容 财务内部控制制度的内容财务内部控制制度的内容人员招聘与配置的内容项目成本控制的内容消防安全演练内容 的是A。对话中没有提到其他种类的自行车赛，也没有指出此项运动对健康 的作用以及如何提高选手的速度，故排除其他三项。A中的annual cycling event对应对话中的 yearly is land bicycle tour。 15、B [听力原文] According to the woman, what is different every year? [解析] 选项中的length，course，route，number和participants表明，本题可能考查某种 活动。对话中女士提到But the route's quite different every year.，即每年自行车赛 的线路都是不同的，故答案为B。四个选项侧重点各不相同，故听音时记下和选项有关的重要信息点。 16、C [听力原文] What suggestions does the woman give to the participants? [解析] 选项均以动词原形开头表明，本题可能考查观点建议。对话末尾女士指出，Take water with you...And pack a good lunch with plenty of fruit for energy. Candy and chocolate don't do the trick.，即女士建议带些水和午餐，但不要带糖果和巧克力，因为它们不能补充 能量，故答案为C。do the trick意为“有帮助，起作用”。 Section B Passage One 17、C [听力原文] When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called "Brownie". My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around. One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up one of Dad's shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said "Bad girl", she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes. Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she'd let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked or tried to get away. The funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone. Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss the days when she was with us. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family? [解析] 选项均以动词原形开头表明，本题可能考查某人或某物的行为动作。由短文中提到的she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them可知，当家里有人生病时，布朗 尼会陪着他们，故答案为C。C是对be with them的同义转述。 18、B [听力原文] What do we learn about Brownie from the passage? [解析] 选项中重复出现的she以及其中的disliked和felt scary表明，本题可能考查她的喜好 或情感。由短文中提到的she looked down at the ground...went and hid...a tear in her eyes(她低头看着地面……走开躲起来……眼里有泪水)可推断出，布朗尼应该是对自己咬破了鞋 这件事感到抱歉和害怕，故答案为B。 19、D [听力原文] How do people think of Browine's smile? [解析] 选项均以it开头且均是表示性质、状态的形容词表明，本题可能考查对it的评价。由短文中 提到的she would smile以及this frightened people可知，Brownie的微笑令人们感到害 怕，故答案为D。 Passage Two 20、D [听力原文] Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time—about eight hours after you wake up—your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later. In many parts of the world, people take naps in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease. Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap—even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful. Why do people feel sleepy in the early afternoon according to the passage? [解析] 选项中重复出现的they以及其中的their body表明，本题可能考查与they有关的事实状 况。短文一开始提出问题:你是否有时会在刚进入下午时犯困?接着短文给出人们通常认为的原因， 然后用however引出真正的原因(the real reason):your body temperature goes down， 故答案为D。注意人们认为的原因并不是真正的原因。however转折处通常为考点，其后的内容常为 答案所在。D中的becomes lower是对goes down的同义转述。 21、C [听力原文] If you get up at 6:30 am, what is the best time for you to take a nap? [解析] 选项内容表明，本题可能考查时间。短文中提到the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up，根据这个说法可知6:30起床之后的第8个小时是最佳的午睡 时间，也就是下午2:30，故答案为C。注意要根据短文内容对具体时间进行推算。 22、A [听力原文] What would be the best title for the passage? [解析] 选项内容表明，本题可能考查短文标题。短文主要围绕午后小睡展开论述，论述了其原因、 合理的午睡时间和益处，A能概括全文，故为答案。短文标题要根据短文的主要内容进行归纳。 Passage Three 23、C [听力原文] It is often necessary to release a fish, that is, set it free after catching, because it is too small, or you just don't want to take it home to eat. In some cases, releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF. encourages fishermen who practise catch-and-release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so. The advice provided below will help make sure that the fish you release will survive to bite again another day. —When catching a fish, play it quickly and keep the fish in the water as much as possible. Don't use a net in landing the fish and release it quickly to prevent it from dying. —Hold the fish gently. Do not put your fingers in its eyes. Don't wipe the scales off the fish because it might cause it to develop a disease and reduce its chance of survival. —Remove your hook quickly. If the hook is too deep or hooked in the stomach, cut the line and leave the hook in. The hook left inside will cause no serious problem to the fish. —Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water. Release the fish when it begins to struggle and is able to swim. —Do not hold fish in a bucket or some other containers and later decide to release it. If you are going to release a fish, do so right away. With a little care and by following the suggestions given above, you can give the released fish a better chance of survival. Why do people sometimes set a fish free after catching it? [解析] 浏览各选项可知，本题可能考查they对待it的方法。短文开头提到It is often necessary to release a fish...because...you just don't want to take it home to eat.，由此可知，将捕捉到的鱼放生是因为“你不想把它带回家烹饪”，故答案为C。C中的don't want to have it as food是对短文中don't want to take it home to eat的同义转述。 24、C [听力原文] Which will probably make a fish ill? [解析] 选项中均以v.-ing形式开头表明，本题可能考查方式方法或行为动作。短文中提到don't wipe the scales off the fish because it might cause it to develop a disease，由此可知，将鱼鳞刮下会导致鱼得病，故答案为C。A和D在短文中有所提及，但都没说会导致鱼生病，故排除。C中的removing对应短文中的wipe...off，都有“刮掉，去除”之意。 25、A [听力原文] What is the proper way to release a fish? [解析] 选项中的move it in water和let it struggle表明，本题可能考查对it的处理方式，it很可能指鱼。短文中提到Take good care of the fish by moving it gently in water. Release the fish when it begins to struggle and is able to swim.，由此可知，答案为A。A中的can swim是短文中is able to swim的同义转述;by+doing表方式，常设为考点，听音时应多加留意。 26、D [听力原文] What is the purpose of the passage? [解析] 选项均以动词不定式开头表明，本题可能考查观点建议或目的。短文一开始通过it is often necessary to release a fish引出话题;接着给出几点放生的建议(the advice provided below);最后总结，遵循这几点建议可以让放生的鱼提高生存率(give the released fish a better chance of survival)，由此可知，短文主要是针对如何放生鱼提出几点建议，故答案为D。短文开头和结尾常为短文主旨所在，故听音时要特别留意。 Section C 27、challenge 根据空前的不定冠词a可确定，本空应填以辅音音素开头的单数名词。challenge意为“挑战”。 28、be seen as 根据空前的情态动词can可确定，本空应填动词(短语)原形。be seen as意为“被看作……”。 29、increase 结合空前的to help和空的your self-motivation可确定，本空应填动词原形。increase意为“增强”。 30、taking action towards 空前的such as表明，本空是对be performing certain things的举例，故as后应填动词(短 语)的动名词形式。taking action towards意为“对……采取行动”。 31、negative 空前的并列连词and及连词前的positive表明，本空应填形容词。negative意为“消极的”。 32、satisfaction 结合空前的want to get和空后的out of可确定，本空应填名词。satisfaction意为“满足”。 33、consequence 结合空前的定冠词the和空后的of可确定，本空应填名词。consequence意为“后果”。 34、Come up with 分析句子结构可知，本句中缺少主谓语成分。本句是个祈使句，隐含了主语you，故本空应填动词(短语)原形。come up with意为“想出”。注意come的首字母c要大写。 35、constantly 分析句子结构可知，本句句意和语法成分完整，故本空应填副词，修饰动词feed。constantly意为“不断地”。注意不要遗漏词尾的-ly。 36、powerful 空前的系动词become和表示比较结构的more and more表明，本空应填多音节的形容词。powerful意为“有力的，强大的”。 Part ? Reading Comprehension Section A 37、 分析句子结构可知，空后的high school应该作宾语，再根据are的提示可知，本空应填现在分词，故G. finishing，I. graduating和K. loosening入选。三个备选项中能与high school构成合理搭配且与后面提到的“更少的年轻人获得大学学位”这一语境相符合的应该是G. finishing。finish high school意为“高中毕业”，graduate表“毕业”时要与from连用后再接宾语。 38、 空前的不定冠词an和空后的fact提示，所填词应是以元音音素开头的形容词，故A. acceptable，B. accountable和O. undeniable入选。再根据fact后的同位语从句可知，备选项中能使文意通顺的应该是O. undeniable，undeniable fact意为“不可否认的事实”。该句话的意思是:今天在教育上超过我们的国家将来会在竞争力上超过我们，这是一个不可否认的事实。 39、 空前have to提示，所填词应是动词原形，且能与up连用，故C. break和M. pick入选。分析文意可知，所填词要能与raise构成同义或近义复现，两个备选项中符合的是M. pick，pick up意为“改进，提高”，our game这里指的应是美国的教育。break up意为“结束，解散”。 40、 分析句子结构可知，该句子主谓宾完整，需要一个和often一起修饰speaking的副词。空格所在句的前半句提到，随着2012年总统竞选活动的不断升温，空后又说，教育问题是奥巴马政治基础的一个重要议题，由这两点可知，奥巴马应是越来越频繁地谈论教育才符合文意，故答案为J. increasingly。 41、 此空依据要从后面几段内容中得出。倒数第二、三段都在讲奥巴马对前总统布什提出的《不让一个孩子掉队》的法案的批判，由此可知这里应该选K. loosening，即奥巴马宣布放松对《不让一个孩子掉队》这一法案的重视。 42、 分析句意可知，空格所在句是在解释说明《不让一个孩子掉队》这一法案的做法:力图让学校对学生的成绩______。备选项中能与for连用又能使文意通顺的应该是B. accountable，即让学校对学生的成绩负责。 43、 此空和下一空之间的内容讲的是《不让一个孩子掉队》这一法案不好的一面，由此可知本空应该填F. criticised才能使文意通顺。 44、 分析文意可知所填词应该能与at搭配，且与后面的内容一起修饰a narrow curriculum。备选项中符合的为N. targeted，意为“该课程的主要目的是确保学生通过 标准 excel标准偏差excel标准偏差函数exl标准差函数国标检验抽样标准表免费下载红头文件格式标准下载 考试”。 45、 根据空前的serious可知，空格处应填名词。再根据定语从句中的are可知，所填词应是复数名词。空后的hurting students还表明所填词应是一个表示与“缺点”意思相同或相近的词，备选项中符合的为H. flaws。 46、 所填词与key一起修饰issues，根据后面提到的2012选举可知，此议题应和竞选有关，故答案为D. campaign。 Section B 47、 根据题目中的the analysis about a manager's personality and his colleagues' 可将本题出处定位于F段。该段倒数第二句中的this analysis指代倒数第四句中的analyse his own personality along with his colleagues'，与题目中的the analysis about a manager's personality and his colleagues'同义。倒数第二句指出，这种分析有助于采取纠正措施、激发人们更强的责任感和积极性。题目与此同义，其中responsible和motivated分别对应该句中的responsibility和motivation。 48、 根据题目中cancerous cell可将本题出处定位于H段第3句。本段开头说，有些人因为过去的经历可能会破坏团队精神，这里显然运用了比喻，把这些人比作“癌细胞”。题目中的destroy the team spirit是本段第1句中内容的复现。 49、 根据题目中的Indian companies，problem和team spirit可将本题出处定位于A段倒数第四句。该句指出，印度的许多公司面临的最大问题就是如何发展团队精神，题目与此同义，其中的build与该句中的develop为同义词。 50、 根据题目中的achieve better sales将本题出处定位于D段。该段第1句指出，快乐的员工工作表现更好。第2句则指出，很多公司更愿意关心客户而不是员工。第3句建议公司分析内部员工的满意度。最后一句指出，一个真正的微笑可以让公司实现更好的业绩。题目是对该段内容的概括。 51、 根据题目中的field representatives和recent study可将本题出处定位于D段第2句。该句提到，最近对地区工作人员的一项研究显示，地区工作代表们希望有一位精通产品知识和销售技巧的管理者。题目是对该句的同义转述。 52、 根据题目中的Indian和colleagues'可将本题出处定位于A段。该段第4句中的this指代上句内容，即“机构内部充斥着派别之争，管理人员只想着自己”。该句提到，在印度公司，这种情况十分普遍，因为印度人总是会患上“青蛙综合症”。第5句对“青蛙综合症”进行了解释，即不允许其他同事沿着公司阶层向上爬。结合这几句话可知，印度公司的管理人员通常会阻碍其他同事的发展，题目是对A段内容的推断。 53、 根据题目中的feeling和proud可将本题出处定位于B段。该段第2句中的it指代上句内容，即“确保人们有凝聚力，并且为成为团队的一员而感到自豪”。由该句可知，管理者要完成这一任务，那么他自己就要成为一名团队领导者，题目与此同义。 54、 根据题目中的motivator factor将本题出处定位于G段。该段第2句指出，印度的一项调查发现，排名第一的激励因素是job enrichment，题目中的the most effective对应原文中的No.1。 55、 根据题目中的develop a dual personality可将本题出处定位于H段第5句。该句中的he即指manager，指出管理者不应该有双重性格;第6句对双重性格进行了举例说明;第7句则指出了双重性格的不利影响，即不利于发展团队精神。题目对原文这几句话进行了概括。 56、 根据题目中的mentor和reliable advice将本题出处定位于F段。该段第1,5句是关于管理者如何才能成为同事的导师，其中指出，管理者可以纠错、指导、并给予建设性的批评;应该去部下需要的地方;应该在同事需要帮助的时候伸出援助之手;应该能够给出可以让人依赖的建议等等。第6句为反问句，表明没有多少管理者能真正成为他们同事的导师，这就表明管理者要成为同事的导师很难。题目是对这六句的概括，其中reliable与第4句中的rely为同根词，at the right time与第3句中的during the need of the hour同义。 Section C Passage One 57、B 根据题干中的scan将本题出处定位于第1段。由该段中的for tips to help break up fights, monitor gangs and prevent crime可知，警察浏览Facebook或MySpace这样的社交网络的目的就是从中获得信息以驱散斗殴、监视帮派和预防犯罪。B. they may detect gang-fighting through the Net对应原文中的for tips to help break up fights, monitor gangs, 故答案为B。A与第4段第1句内容相矛盾，C是针对第3段第1句设置的干扰项，D在文中未提及。 58、C 由第1段中校园警察也在浏览着他们的Facebook和MySpace网页可以推知，该句意为“有些学生反对警察的监视”。其looking over their shoulders是“监视他们”的意思。A在文中未提及，B是针对第3段第1句设置的干扰项，D. Make schoolyard checking a routine.是针对第2段第2句routine checks...schoolyards所设的干扰项。C. Monitor what they said online. 与looking over their shoulders意思相近，故答案为C。 59、A 根据题干中的have access to和online profiles将本题出处定位于第4段最后一句。该句提到，网站的默认设置是向大多数网络用户开放档案(如Facebook)或是允许所有网络用户浏览(如MySpace)。由此可知，警员之所以能在网络上看到学生自己所写的一些个人信息和自己的活动，是因为学生没有采取保护自己隐私的措施，即学生在对待个人隐私这个问题上很随便，故答案为A。 60、D 根据题干中的Fairfax County police将本题出处定位于倒数第二段。该段第2句提到，这次调查得到了一名学生的帮助，他给驻校警官看了一个嫌犯的MySpace网站个人信息中随处可见的帮派记号。D中的their self-descriptions online对应原文的the suspect's MySpace profiles，故答案为D。A是针对该段中investigation设的干扰项。B和C在文中未提及。 61、B 根据题干中的discuss in the passage可知，本题考查文章的主旨，故将本题出处定位于全文。文章第1段讲校园警察通过Facebook和MySpace获得信息以驱散斗殴、监视帮派和预防犯罪;接下来的段落依次分析了校园警察通过网络关注学生活动的原因和学生对此的反应以及警员通过网络关注学生活动的途径和方法;最后两段举例说明网络在处理校园问题方面的辅助作用。由此不难看出，本文主要分析的是网络在解决校园问题时所起到的帮助作用，故答案为B。 Passage Two 62、D 文章第1段引出stiletto heels这一话题，第2段对这一类鞋的危害做了解说，可见应将本题出处定位于第2段。第2段提到，工会认为高跟鞋是对女性的不尊重，也会给她们造成伤害，提议女性穿鞋跟不超过一英寸的鞋，而stiletto heels是可能被禁止在工作场合穿的鞋，由此可以推断出答 案为D。文中说高跟鞋也许在好莱坞的走秀台上看起来光艳四射，但并没有说stiletto heels最适 合在走秀时穿，故排除A。文中说零售业的雇主强迫女员工穿高跟鞋，并不代表高跟鞋就非常适合零 售业的员工穿，故排除B。根据“工会提议穿鞋跟不超过一英寸的鞋”可排除C。 63、A 根据题干中的Trade Union leaders和ban stiletto heels from the workplace将本题 出处定位于第1段。文章第1段提到英国工会的领导们认为，基于健康和安全方面的考虑，工作场所 应该禁止穿细跟的高跟鞋，第2段也提到他们认为高跟鞋也会对女性造成长期的伤害，提议中有详细 说明，故答案为A。B不是工会领导们的观点，故排除。C是针对around two million days a year are lost through sickness设的干扰项。工会联盟认为，高跟鞋也许在好莱坞的走秀台上看起 来光艳四射，但并没有说他们不想在像好莱坞一样的地方工作，故排除D。 64、B 根据题干中的Nadine Dorries，the motion，the extra height和the heels将本题出处 定位于倒数第四段，倒数第三段首先说了娜丁?多里斯的身高是5英尺3英寸(大约160厘米)，如果不 穿高跟鞋，和男同事说话时她只能仰视他们，但穿高跟鞋后身高增加，她能够直视他们(look my male colleagues in the eye)，所以说是高跟鞋让她有了自信，故答案为B。C是针对no one would be able to find me设的干扰项。文中并未提到穿高跟鞋能提高她的视力和个人魅力，故排除A 和D。 65、C 根据题干中的Michelle Dewberry将本题出处定位于文章最后两段。倒数第二段提到米歇尔?杜伯 里说the motion was patronising。最后一段都是米歇尔?杜伯里的观点，她认为这项提议非 常荒谬(this is absolutely ridiculous)，工会官员们应该把他们的时间花在处理更重要的 事情上面，最后说穿不穿高跟鞋完全是个人的选择。C正是对本段的同义转述，故答案为C。A与this is absolutely ridiculous矛盾，故排除。B与union officials should...dealing with more important issues(工会领导应该……去处理那些更重要的问题)矛盾。文中提到米歇尔?杜 伯里无法想象这些官员们在一起讨论男人的领带应该系多紧将会是什么样子，她仅仅是讽刺，真实意 图并非是说工会领导应该决定领带该系多紧，故排除D。 66、B 本文开头说英国工会的领导们认为穿高跟鞋危害女性身体健康，决定提议禁止女性在工作场合穿高跟 鞋，但下面提到娜丁?多里斯和米歇尔?杜伯里这两位女性对这一提议持反对意见，由此可推断，这 一提议可能会引发激烈讨论，故答案为B。工会领导基于健康考虑，提议女性在工作时不穿高跟鞋， 但这并不能说明他们的职责就是关注人们的健康，故排除A。文中只提到两个人认为穿高跟鞋能增强 自信(boost your confidence)，但这没有代表性，C属于过度推断。文中提到两位女性对英国 工会提议女性在工作场合不穿高跟鞋持反对意见，但这并不表明女职工和工会男性领导人的想法完全 不同，D属于过度推断。 Part ? Translation 67、The Chinese life is colourful with many interesting folkways. The Chinese wedding may be a focus of interest. There are many differences between the Chinese and Westerners in weddings, as the people in the West go to church while the Chinese celebrate them with a feast. Westerners hope that God will bless them while the Chinese thank the Heaven and their parents. Westerners wear white wedding dresses while the bride and groom wear red according to Chinese tradition, because red symbolises good luck and happiness.
