三、阅读理解
With rising gas prices,it’s no wonder the search for gasoline alternatives(替代品)has suddenly taken on a new urgency.One of the laboratories—a high school in Brooklyn—is where students are using cooking oil to run their experimental engine.And as Education reporter Art McFarland discovered,it appears to be working.
Students at Automotive High School have taken a gas alternative lesson a step further.They have perfected a project that runs this car’s engine,with used cooking oil.
Lamar Taylor,“I think it’s a great project because it’s better for the environment.”
Vehicles that run on alternative fuels are part of a cutting edge technology.The Automotive High Project began after a diesel-powered Mercedes was donated to the school two years ago.
Thomas Cassino,mechanics teacher,“The original diesel engine...was actually produced to run on vegetable oil and whale oil.”
The oil running the engine was collected from the school cafeteria and from restaurants,then placed into a converter,which heats it up while the engine starts using the diesel fuel.With the flip(轻击)of a switch,the engine is cooking with oil,though collecting it can have drawbacks.
Melissa Silberman,principal,“Once they started running the car,they didn’t want to eat in the cafeteria any-more because what the French fries(炸薯条)were cooked in weren’t so attractive if it can run a car.”
And it has its advantages.Curtis Giscombe,student,“It smells like the back of McDonalds...It smells like French fries.”
The students are not likely to influence the more widespread use of alternative fuels,but if the day comes when lots more cars are running on cooking oil,the students will be prepared to service them.
1.What would be the best title for the text?
A.The Future Alternative to Gasoline
B.Rising Gas Prices Drive Experimental Engine
C.Cooking Oil Finds Its New Uses
D.Students Use Cooking Oil to Power an Engine
2.The importance of using cooking oil to run engines is that it can ______.
A.protect the environment
B. save the gas
C.offer cars good smell
D.bring down the gas price
3.According to the seventh paragraph,______.
A.the car is full of French fries
B.the car makes people eat nothing
C.the car makes people not want to eat in the cafeteria
D.the car is a moving cafeteria
4.About the future of the car running on cooking oil,we know that ______.
A.the day for cars widely using cooking oil is long to come
B.it will have a great effect on the oil market
C.the students may build a service company soon
D.no one wants to use cooking oil for their cars

答案:B
2.解析:句意:——昨天你淋雨了吗?——很幸运。我刚一到家,雨就倾盆而下。“no sooner+部分倒装(时态为过去完成时)+than”,表示“一……就……”。
答案:B
3.解析:句意:一些人认为随着越来越多的人们家里有了电视,他们买书籍和报纸就会越来越少。根据句子结构和句意可知,that从句本身为一个复合句,as引导状语从句,由more and more可知,其后也应用比较级形成对比。
答案:D
4.解析:首先listen to+宾语+do sth./doing sth./done,所以排除A、B两项。另外,remark on评论。
答案:C
6.解析:intended to相当于which was intended to...。
答案:C
7.解析:句意:许多作家丰富的生活经历十分有助于他们创作上的成功。owe to“归功于”;apply to“应用于”;distribute to“分给”;contribute to有助于。
答案:D
8.解析:be aware of “知道;明白”。若选B项,应改为acquainted with。因为本句空前有was,所以C、D两项放在此处不恰当。
答案:A
9.解析:考查hold动词短语。hold back“阻止;退缩”;hold up“延迟”;hold out“坚持”;hold down“控制”。句意:在山中迷路的男孩设法坚持了四天,直到救援到来。

二、完形填空
解题导语:作者通过自己经历的一件事情告诉我们,在生活中,奇迹无处不在,奇迹就在我们选择发现奇迹的地方。
1.解析:下文告诉我们,老太太患的是癌症,而不是受了伤,由此可见,这位老太太是因为上颚痛才来看病的。
答案:B
2.解析:句意:“我告诉我的牙医这没什么,但是他却坚持让我来看看。”由第二段中的I found a large cancer that spread over most of the __4__ of her mouth.可以看出,她的病情很严重,所以应该是她的私人医生坚持要她来,因此要选择insist“坚决主张”,后面从句要用虚拟语气。declare“宣布”;suspect“怀疑”;promise“承诺”。
答案:D
3.解析:陪同老太太来的是她80岁的儿子,他试图补充点什么,但被老太太给阻止了。这里attempt to do sth.相当于try to do sth.意思是“试图做某事(但没有成功)”。而manage to do sth.意思是“成功做成某事”;refuse to do sth.意思是“拒绝做某事”;continue to do sth.意思是“继续做某事”,显然都不符合语境。
答案:C
4.解析:上文提到,老太太感觉上颚(upper jaw)有点痛,所以应该选择roof,14空所在的句子也有暗示。roof在此处的意思是“牙床,上颚”。corner“角落,区域”;bottom“底部”;surface“表面”。
答案:A
5.解析:confirm“确认”。句意:后来的细致检查确认这是一种特别严重的癌症。convince“(使)信服,说服”;consider“考虑”;conclude“推断,得出结论”。
答案:A
6.解析:由5空后的a particularly bad sort of cancer可以看出,在下次来看病时,我向她解释了病情的严重性(seriousness)。possibility“可能性”;importance“重要性”;resolution“决心,解决”。
答案:C
7.解析:由语境可知,老太太一直以为自己身体很健康,所以要选fine,意思是:(身体)好的。下文的“I’m just fine,honey”也是暗示。
