11、lso go beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a 22, The word geography comes from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for “earth” and graphein, 23means “to write”, the English word Geography means “to describe the earth”. Some geography books focus on a small area 24a town or city. O

12、thers deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an entire continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another 25to divide the study of geography is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the 26starts with human beings

13、 and studies how human beings and their environment act 27each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject, neither branch can neglect the other. A geographer might be described 28one who observes, records, and explains the differences between places.If places 29alike, there would be

16、mmar rules and memorizing （牢记、记忆）some vocabulary wordsalthough those are important activities not to be ignored. Acquiring a language is learning a skill, not a body of information. Its as much like learning to swim or ride a bike as it is like learning about the Second World War. That is, you must

17、not only understand the ideas and concepts, have information at hand, but also make your body accustomed to using that information in physical activity: in this case the physical activity involved is speaking, listening, writing and reading.You need, then, not only to memorize and understand, but al

18、so to practice!Here are a few brief suggestions on effective practice/study techniques.1. Make your mouth or hand do what your mind is learning. Study out loud. Do go to the lab and work on the tapes. Study with a friend, thus involving yourself in speaking and listening. Try to write sentences or a

19、 short paragraph using the skills you have practiced orally.2. Study day by day. You cannot get by in a foreign language course by cramming (临时抱佛脚) at the last minute. You may be able to learn vocabulary items that way, but you cannot teach your mouth to use them in sentences.3. Occasionally go back

20、 and review old topics and vocabulary. Language learning is cumulative (积累的). You learn new skills on the basis of old ones. The more you recycle（循环）familiar information and skills, the better you will be able to absorb new ones.4. Dont be afraid to make mistakes. Self-consciousness (自我意识) can be a

21、mighty obstacle to learning a language. Perhaps part of the reason small children readily acquire languages is that they are not afraid of making mistakes. 31. The first paragraph of the passage is to emphasize that. A. memorizing vocabulary words is necessary in language learning B.learning to swim

22、 is quite similar to learning about the Second World War C.understanding the ideas and concepts is more important than anything else D.language learning is a process of acquiring different language skills 32.

23、r language B.it strengthens the friendship between two friends C.friends can share tapes or other learning materials D.one studies better in a friendly atmosphere 33. Cramming should be avoided while learning a language because. A.it is of little use to study without a clear purpose B.nothing can be

24、 learnt through cramming C.anything learnt that way can hardly be put into use D.one may not find enough time to use at the last minute 34. The purpose of reviewing old topics is. A. to build up a good foundation for new skills B.to appreciate the good ideas contained in them C.to throw away the old

25、, useless information D.to avoid making mistakes in the future 35.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A.Why Children Are Capable of Learning a Language Better Than Grown-ups B.A Few Brief Suggestions on Studying a Foreign Language C.Why Learning a Foreign Language Is More Diffi

26、cult Than Anything Else D.An Introduction to Language Teaching and LearningIV. Reading Comprehension Passage 2 Computer people talk a lot about the need for other people to becomecomputer-literate. But not all experts agree that this is a good idea. One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees is David

27、 Tebbutt, the founder of Computertown UK.Although many people see this as a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer, David does not see it that way. He says that Computertown UK was formed for just the opposite reason, to bring computers to people and make them “people-literate. Da

28、vid Tebbutt thinks Computertowns are most successful when tied to a computer club but he insists there is an important difference between the two; the clubs are for people who have some computer knowledge already. This frightens away non-experts, who are happier going to Computertowns where there ar

29、e computers for them to experiment on. With experts to encourage them and answer any questions they have, they are not told what to do. They find out. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to answer all questions people ask. People dont have to le

30、arn computer terms, but the experts have to explain in plain language. The computers are becoming people-literate. 36. Which of the following is David Tebbutts idea on the relationship between people and computers? A. Computer learning should be made easier. B.There should be more computer clubs for

31、 experts. C.People should work harder to master computer use. D.Computers should be made cheaper so that people can afford them. 37. We can infer from the text that computer-literate means. A.being able to afford a computer B.being able to write computer programs C.working with the computer and find

32、ing out its value D.understanding the computer and knowing how to use it 38. The underlined word it in the second paragraph refers to the idea that Computertowns . A.help to set up more computer clubs B.bring people to learn to use computers C.bring more experts to work together D.help to sell compu

33、ters to the public 39. David Tebbutt started Computertown UK with the purpose of. A.making better use of computer experts B.improving computer programs C.increasing computer sales D.popularizing computers 40. Which of the following is NOT true?. A.Many people think that Computertown UK is a good way

34、 to bring people closer to the computer. B.Computer clubs are for those computer-literate people. C.Everyone think people should be “computer-literate.” D.The computer experts have to be able to answer all questions in plain language.V. Translation 41. To tell the truth, we dont really have much in

35、common, but we get along really well.参考答案 ：说实话，我俩相同的地方实际上很少，不过我们相处得很好。 42. Although there is no cure for the common cold, doctors believe that vitamins can help prevent them.参考答案 ：虽然一般的感冒没有办法杜绝，但医生们相信，维生素可以预防感冒。43. Whether you come through the front door, or sail right up to the deck, youll enjoy th

36、is wonderful restaurant, where the fish and other seafood are fresh and truly a treasure.参考答案 ：不论你是从前门迈入，还是从水上舶来，你都会喜欢这家美妙的餐厅，这儿的海鲜着实新鲜可口。 44.如果你能把你的成就大致列一个提纲，会对你很有帮助，然后练习在镜子前、朋 友面前或录象机前大声地讲话。 (outline) Its helpful to outline your achievements on paper, then practice delivering them aloud, either in

37、 front of a mirror, before a friend or on a video. 45. 不要把这个手势与表示“不”的手势相混淆。表示“不”时，需将右手在自己面前左右晃动，手心向左。(confuse with)1 B In terms of, 依据；从方面。其他三个词没有这个含义。Words, 词语，话语。Speech, 说话的能力或方式；发言；演说。Opinion, 意见。 2 C 动词 enjoy 的意思是，喜欢，享受。常常跟动名词 enjoy doing sth 一起连用，表示喜欢做某事。 3 A 用prefer rather than 来做比较时，相比较的两者需要是

38、对等的结构。此处，前者是to read, 所以 than 后要用 to go to 。 4 B 句子的意思是，我等了他二十多分种了，他一直没有来。Show off, 炫耀。Show up, 出现。 Show around, 带领参观。 5 B 句子意思是，我站上去以后把梯子扶稳，否则我会摔下来的。Stuck, 卡住；陷住；动弹不得。Steady, 稳当的。Smooth, 平稳的。Slow, 缓慢的。 6 B On the rise, 在上升状态，呈现上升趋势。其他三个介词此处都不合适。 7 B Make up ones mind, 打定主意，做出决定。是习惯用法。 Brain, 头脑，大脑。M

39、ind, 心思，心智，智力，神志。Idea, 主意，想法。Think, 想，思考，认为。 8 D 感官动词hear 后可以接不带 to 的动词不定式，如 hear sb do sth，表示听到某人做某事。 9 B As a matter of fact 和 in fact, 都有“事实上，实际情况是”的含义。前者 matter 前有不定冠词，而后者 fact 前不加任何冠词。 10 A 句子意思：自从毕加索的绘画展出以来，博物馆每天都有大量的人群。在 there be 的句型中，系动词 be 的数取决于句子真正的主语的数。本句的真正主语是large crowds。11 C A 句 have g

40、one 表示说话人不在这里，在去的路上或已经到了。B 句前言不搭后语。C 句符合语境，语义也连贯。 12 B 从句子内容来看，对话是个电话对话。选项A、C内容不符合短文情景，只有选项B表示自己在晚饭时间挂电话可能有些不合适。 13 A 选项B句前后自相矛盾；选项C句不符合语境。A 句符合语境，准确回答了对方的建议。 14 B 按照常识，询问时间的时候，直接给出现在的时间就可以了。 15 C 说话人询问这一天有什么特别的事情没有，直截了当的回答方式自然是有或者没有。 16 C 问句：我有两张比赛的票。你想跟我一起去看吗？A句：昨天晚上的比赛怎么样？B句：比赛一定很激烈。C句：为什么不呢？我们一起

41、去吧。问句的重心在“想不想一起去”，C句直截了当地做了回答。 17 A 首句：我已经开办了自己的计算机公司。A句：不是开玩笑吧？！祝贺你！B句：如果我有钱，我就买。C句：你能告诉我是谁的吗？A句表示祝贺，符合语境。B句语义还说得过去，只是代词 it 指代不清楚。 18 C 从三个给出的下句来看，只有C句更切合语境。问：听说了吗？Betty 还在那家工厂工作。答语：你开玩笑吧？四十年？在同一家工厂？ 19 B 第一句询问“你是否知道附近有饭店？”而缺少的句子也是该问话人说的，是针对“你是否有什么特别的想去的地方？”而说的。选项A和 C 从内容来看显然不是第一个问话人的句子；选项B：“价格合理，干

42、净的地方”。 20 A 问句相当于Do you have any plans for the weekend? 选项B 和 C 跟问句前言不搭后语。选项 A 意思是，“那要看天气怎么样了。”符合上下文语境。21 B 从空格前的两个动词compare 和 contrast 来看，显然地理学家是“比较”和“对比”不同的地方。 22 A 本句的意思是，他们不仅研究单个的地方，而且把地球当作一个整体来研究。To consider sth as a whole, 把当作一个整体。 23 C 非限制性定语从句，前面有逗号隔开，用which 引起。 24 D 这里，like 用来表示举例或列举。 25 A

43、Another way to divide geography 另一种划分地理学的方法是 26 D 指代前面提到过的两个事物时，可以用the former, the latter, 意思是“前者，后者”。 27 A 短语 to act upon sth, 对某事发生作用，产生影响。 28 C 动词短语 to describe A as B, 把A描述成B。 29 D 本句是个虚拟语气的句子。事实是，世界各地千差万别，不可能都是一个样子。 30 B 本句在意思上没有转折或递进的含义，而是顺承的，所以选 then 更合适。 31 D 第一自然段 That is 后的整个句子，点出了本段的核心：语言

44、学习是听说读写多种技能综合训练的过程。32 A 跟朋友一起学习的目的之一是，involving yourself in speaking and listening。可见选项A 是正确答案。 33 C 关于cramming, 短文中提到：You may be able to learn vocabulary items that way, but you cannot teach your mouth to use them in sentences. 34 A 在第三个学习技巧中，短文中提到：Occasionally go back and review old topics and voc

45、abulary. Language learning is cumulative (积累的). You learn new skills on the basis of old ones. The more you recycle（循环）familiar information and skills, the better you will be able to absorb new ones. 35 B 从短文内容来看，这段文字是关于学习外语的一些技巧的。36 A 从David Tebbutt所做的一切来看，他是为了让人们自己在探索的过程中学习如何使用计算机，They find out. 而不是靠专家去教。 37 D 理解computer-literate的前提是理解literate这个词的用法。形容词literate 的意思是“有文化的，能写能读的”。computer-literate的意思是“懂计算机，会用计算机”。 38 B 从短文中得知，Computertown UK的真实目的还是帮助人们熟悉使用
