身體健康的人不愿意去想死亡的事，死亡是我們希望避免的話題。但是死亡是普遍的人生經(jīng)歷，是人人都要面臨的少數(shù)必然之一。理智的人對必然的死亡預(yù)作計劃，從容對待；只有愚蠢的人不能正視現(xiàn)實，希望用某種方法逃脫死亡。人壽保險對必然的死亡提供理智的安排。只要對自己的死亡能夠直面對待的人才能充分理解人壽保險的必要性。人壽保險公司充分認識到了人民對死亡的負面印象，為此，他們對保險代理商進行培訓(xùn)時，要求他們在推銷中避免使用直率的語言，而努力以恰當(dāng)?shù)姆绞阶尶蛻魝円庾R到：人終究會死，人人都會面臨死亡，必須要客觀地接受自己的比如死亡才能在經(jīng)濟上為此做好充分的準(zhǔn)備。

六、作文(1題)96.假定你是Helen，要寫一封信給Julie，對她和她的丈夫昨日請你和你丈夫吃飯表示感謝，表示要回請他們，以答謝他們的盛情款待。

參考答案

1.D

2.A

3.A解析：本題考虛擬語氣在名詞性從句中的用法。在“ask(advise，desire，ordersuggest，require，etc。)+the廣引導(dǎo)的從句中，謂語動詞應(yīng)用“should+認”，should可以省去，再結(jié)合語態(tài)，故A項正確。本句大意為：他們要求所有的必要文件都必須在月底之前交到校長辦公室。

4.D解析：上句責(zé)備瑪麗應(yīng)該做作業(yè)而不是坐到那兒看電視，下句是瑪麗對媽媽責(zé)備的一種辯解：“你說過電視是有教育意義的?！彼訢項正確。

5.A

6.B

7.D本題考查時態(tài)。

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：當(dāng)你寫信回家的時候，請代我向你的妻子問好。在時間狀語從句中用一般現(xiàn)在時代替一般將來時。

8.B解析：本題考查動詞固定搭配的用法。deprive后常接介詞of，表示剝奪什么。

9.D

10.B

11.B

12.A

13.A

14.A本句考查兩個并列句之間的連接的詞。題干的意思是：“氣球能夠浮在空氣中正如船能夠浮在海面上一樣?！痹谒膫€選項中，只有A項的justas有“正如，猶如”的意思。故選A。

15.Bsetout意為“出發(fā)，動身”。

16.C

17.D

18.C

19.B解析：takemeasures意思為“采取措施”，本句應(yīng)用被動語態(tài)。

20.C解析：副詞so置于句首，句子應(yīng)該用倒裝語序，某人受傷用sb.beinjured來表示，故答案為C。

21.C

22.B

23.B

24.D解析：which修飾非限定性定語從句，指代前邊一句話。本題涉及句法知識——簡單句、并列句和復(fù)合句。例如：Hehastwodaughters.Theyaredoctors.(簡單句)Hehastwodaughtersandtheyaredoctors.(并列句)Hehastwodaughters,whoaredoctors．(復(fù)合句)

25.B

26.B解析：encourage：鼓勵、鼓舞；discourage：使泄氣；prevent：阻止；ask：要求。根據(jù)句意只有選B。

27.C解析：notonly…butalso連接主語時，謂語動詞根據(jù)就近原則由butalso后的成分來決定。TomandMary是兩個人，所以動詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。

28.A【句子大意】新打字機的價格是二手貨的三倍。

29.B

30.A解析：while意為“雖然”；as意為“因為”；if意為“如果”；since意為“因為”。根據(jù)題意選A。

31.C

32.C

33.B

34.A本題考查祈使句型：

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】句意：Mary，到這里來，其余的人待在原處。根據(jù)句子的結(jié)構(gòu)可判斷出這是個祈使句。所以要用動詞原形開頭。Mary在句中不是

主語，而是“呼語”。

35.A解析：此題考查反意疑問句的用法。主句為祈使句，因此其反意疑問句用willyou。

36.D解析：本題測試形容詞辨析。四個選項的意思分別是“普通的”，“清楚的”，“正義的”，“僅僅的”。根據(jù)句意，D項正確。本句大意為：他僅僅把它作為一個細節(jié)來描述，而我卻認為它是這個計劃中最重要的部分。

37.C

38.B解析：theeducationsystem是主語，謂語動詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)；thedesiredresults意為“期望的結(jié)果”。

39.D解析：從句中的問句主謂不倒裝。從句的時態(tài)隨主句。我想知道那輛車的價格。

40.A解析：shape意為“(女人的)姿態(tài)，身段”；form意為“形狀，形態(tài)”；appearance意為“外表，樣子”；body意為“身體”。由題意知應(yīng)選A。

41.Dapplyto應(yīng)用；applyfor申請

42.C所有的學(xué)生都去看了昨天的魔術(shù)表演。它太令人不可思議了。這里主要考查的是動詞的現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞的不同用法。Sth．bedoing表示某一事物令人怎么樣。Sb．bedone表示某人處于某種狀態(tài)。例：Theletteristouching．這封信令人感動。

Iammoved．我很感動。

43.D解析：forgetdoingsth．忘了已做過某事。注意區(qū)別forgettodosth。忘了而沒有做某事。

44.A解析：favor：幫助，一般用domeafavor；good：好處；help不與do搭配：kindness：善良。故選A。

45.C解析：much用在句中修飾比較級better。

46.B解析：本題考查固定搭配。havetrouble(in)doingsth.“做某事有困難”。句意為：有時孩子們在分清故事和現(xiàn)實方面會有困難，相信故事中的事確實存在。

47.B解析：表示否定的副詞前置于句首，句子需要不完全倒裝，即助動詞提前。其余選項均可排除。除Notuntil外還有never，seldom，rarely，seldom，no，little，hardly，innotime等否定副詞或結(jié)構(gòu)放在句首時，句子需要部分倒裝。

48.B考查反義疑問句。原句應(yīng)是：youwouldthinkhehadhaveforgotten…反義疑問句的規(guī)則是陳述部分是肯定式，疑問部分應(yīng)是否定式。Wouldthink表示推測，疑問部分也應(yīng)選擇would。選項B是正確的?！揪渥哟笠狻磕汶y道還認為他已經(jīng)忘掉了，是嗎?

49.Ainparticular是固定搭配，意為“特別地”。

50.A

51.G

52.Ihopeyourmothergetswellsoon

53.Whattime(/When)doesitstart(/begin)

54.G

55.A

56.B

57.B

58.H

59.E

60.G

61.D見上一條。

62.C23．答案為C

此處測試句意理解。前面的vocational意為“行業(yè)的、職業(yè)的”，此處要表達的是“日后的工作計劃”之意。

63.B解析：federalgovernment是指美國聯(lián)邦政府。

64.A解析：帽子上寫有某些文字，用動詞bear，表示“具有；帶有；顯示出”，后面接所顯示的內(nèi)容；而write表示“寫；寫下”，主語是人，不是物；read在表示“讀到；獲悉”，主語一般是人，不是物，有時也表示“指示；顯示”，但是僅用于度量儀器；convey表示“傳達；表達”，通常表達的是感情、意見、思想等。

65.D解析：本題屬介詞題。被動語態(tài)的動作執(zhí)行者前應(yīng)該用by。

66.D解析：有些人以為他們也在選舉自己的總統(tǒng)。事實上他們選舉的不是總統(tǒng)。再重申一下，他們選舉的是代表。而這些被選出來的代表叫選舉人，他們是選舉團的成員。

67.C解析：A項procedure意為“程序，步驟”，B項process意為“過程，步驟”，這二詞語義上不符合句子的要求，因為孩子不會關(guān)心燒飯菜或上飯菜的程序如何。C項way意為“方法”，飯菜是怎樣燒的，怎樣上的，這會吸引孩子們，因此用在此處符合題意。D項method意為“方法”，強調(diào)某種特定的方法，而本文講的是通常的燒飯菜和上飯菜的方法，故此不符合句子的要求。

68.A解析：形容詞辨析。此句相關(guān)部分的意思是：電腦新技術(shù)使記者們獲得更多信息，給新聞讀者們一個提問和求助于不同渠道的機會。根據(jù)上下文可知，different填入此處最為恰當(dāng)。similar意為“相似的，類似的”；reliable意為“可靠的，可信賴的”；original意為“最初的，獨創(chuàng)的”。

69.D詞義辨析題。此處表示“它能影響我們的身體和心理健康”。harm傷害；affect影響，為及物動詞，后面可直接跟名詞；change改變；impact影響，作不及物動詞時，可以加介詞on再跟名詞。故選D。

70.B解析：測試習(xí)慣用法。like后通常+名詞，as后通常+句子。

71.他們發(fā)現(xiàn)通過自身的高速繁殖兩天之內(nèi)該病毒可以繁殖到一百多萬倍的數(shù)量。他們發(fā)現(xiàn)通過自身的高速繁殖，兩天之內(nèi)該病毒可以繁殖到一百多萬倍的數(shù)量。

72.現(xiàn)代社會正在經(jīng)歷著科學(xué)與技術(shù)的快速發(fā)展。

73.安全第一也許意味著多花一點時間和精力但卻可省去你很多麻煩。安全第一也許意味著多花一點時間和精力，但卻可省去你很多麻煩。
