If the voicesounds dull, then, it' s time for you to change the subject.Finally, good talkers knOW well now to deal with the occasion of parting. If you want to see that person again, don' t keep it a secret.

(9)根据下列材料,请回答{TSE}题We experience different forms of the sun' s energy every day. The sun is the major source of energy for our planet. It causes the evaporation(蒸发) of water from the oceans and lakes. Sunlight also provides the energy used by green plants to make their own food. Much of the energy that comes from the sun never reaches the earth' s surface. It is either reflected or absorbed by the gases in the upper atmosphere. Of the energy that reaches the lower at mosphere, 30% is reflected by clouds or the earth' s surface. The remaining 70% warms the surface of the planet, causes water to evaporate, and provides energy for the water cycle and weather. Only a tiny part, approximately\" 0.023%, is actually used by green plants to produce food. Many gases found in the atmosphere actually reflect heat energy escaping from the earth' s surface back to the earth. These gases act like the glass of a greenhouse in that they allow energy from the sun to enter but prevent energy from leaving. They are therefore called greenhouse gases.When sunlight strikes an object, some of the energy is absorbed and some is reflected. The amount reflected depends on the surface. Dark-colored surfaces, such as dark soil or forest, absorbmore energy.{TS}According to the passage, the root cause for weather changes on the earth is
A. the atmosphere surrounding the earth B. water from oceans and lakes C. energy from the sun
D. greenhouse gases in the sky
(10)Only a small part of the sun' s energy reaches the earth' s surface because most of it is A. absorbed by the clouds in the lower atmosphere B. reflected by the gases in the upper atmosphere C. lost in the upper and lower atmosphere
D. used to evaporate water from the oceans and lakes

(11)We learn from the passage that
A. all living things on the earth depend on the sun for their food B. a forest looks dark in winter because it absorbs solar energy
C. only 0.023 of the energy from the sun is made use of on the earth
D. greenhouse gases allow heat energy to escape from the earth' s surface

第一节 单项填空
从A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡l上将该项涂黑
(1) :D
本题考查习惯用法。句意为:——我恐怕直到明天才能修好这些。——行,不用着急。no hurry“不着急”;no doubt“毫无疑问”;no wonder“难怪”;no problem“没问题”。根据句子意思,故选D。
中大网校 “十佳网络教育机构”、 “十佳职业培训机构” 网址:www.wangxiao.cn
中大网校引领成功职业人生
(2) :B
本题考查词组搭配及定冠词the的用法。句意为:我们乘船绕道去西海岸,而没有开车(直接)穿过大陆去。by sea“乘船”,就等于bry stay,不需加冠词,类似的还有by bus,by air。continent这里是特指,为说话双方所知道,所以前面加定冠词the。故选B。
(3) :A
本题考查词组意思。句意为:——我仍然在做这一个项目。——啊?你也许不能如期完成啦。因为快没有时间啦。当表示“时间 用完,耗尽”的时候多用run out;give out“分发,精力耗尽”。故选A。
(4) :B
本题考查虚拟语气的用法。句意为:——对不起,前几天我不应该对你大喊大 叫的。——算了,我当时也有点失控。从对话上下文可以看出,应该填的是“本不应该,不应当”的意思。所以用should not have done结构,must not have done这一结构在英语中不存在。故选B。
(5) :A
本题考查从句引导词。句意为:那个迷路的小女孩决定呆在原地等她的母亲。where引导地点状语从句。故选A。
(6) :B
本题考查的是句子时态。句意为:当时我不在城里,所以不知道事情是怎样发生的。根据语境可知,事情发生在过去,所以要用一般过去时。故选B。
(7) :B

我看着她的眼睛说道:“我不想把它们弄丢了,我把它们放在靴子里脚指头的地方了。”

一些人在你身边你会感觉很舒服。这些人有一些共性。一旦我们知道了这些共性,我们就会向这方面努力!
应该怎么做呢?下面就是善谈者拥有的技巧。如果你掌握这些技巧,会让你与人交往更容易,快速地和他们成为朋友。
首先,善谈者要问问题。几乎任何人,无论他是多么的羞涩,都会回答问题。他如何回答会让你知道如何进行下一步。
其次,一旦善谈者提出问题,他们会倾听答案。要发现和你谈话的是什么类型的人,你真的需要仔细认真地听。
真正的倾听至少需要做到以下几点:第一,谈话要不脱离中心。真正的倾听者不仅仅听所说的话还要听语调。如果这种声音听起来很沉闷,那么你就应该换一个话题了。
最后,善谈者要很好地知道如何去处理分别的场景。如果你下次还想见到那个人就要表现出来。让他们知道你的感受,他们在离开之后可能会感觉好像和你认识半生了。
=事实细节题。根据文中Almost anyone,no matter how shy he is.will answer a question.即“无论多害羞的人都会回答问题”,从而使交流顺利地进行下去。故选C。 (6) :B

中大网校 “十佳网络教育机构”、 “十佳职业培训机构” 网址:www.wangxiao.cn

太阳所产生能量的大部分没有到达地球表面,而是被高空中的大气反射或者吸收了。到达底层的能量中,30%被云或者地球表面反射。剩余的70%给地球表面提供热量,促进水蒸发,给水循环和大气循环提供能量。只有一小部分,大概0.023%,用于绿色植物的光合作用。
大气中的许多气体将来自地球的热能再发射回地球。这些气体就像温室里的玻璃一样,允许吸收太阳能量,但却防止能量溜走。因此它们被叫做温室气体。
当太阳光直射到一个物体上时,一些能量被吸收,一些被反射。反射的数量取决于物体的表面。黑色表面,像黑土或者森林,能够吸收较多的能量。
事实细节题。由文章第二段The remaining 70%warms„and provides energy for the water cycle and weather.即“剩余的70%给地球表面提供热,促进水蒸发,给水循环和大气循环提供能量”一句可知答案。故选C。

许多国家的大城市都有股票市场。股票交易所是人们买卖工厂或公司股票的地方。每一股都意味着股民对公司或者工厂的一定所有权。
各类人都去股票市场。一些是有钱人,他们想要赚更多的钱。另一些人并不那么富裕,他们想要通过股票赚钱。还有一些人把买股票作为自己存钱的途径。
当然投资股市不是最安全的赚钱办法。没人确切知道股票是否会带来利润。公司或者工厂可能经营不善,股票就会跌,股民就会赔钱。股票会因一些不明原因升降。每个人都希望股票升,但是有时候即便公司或者工厂经营得很好,股票仍有可能跌。
难怪去股市经常被比作赌博。需要钱的公司或者工厂很高兴看到能有那么多人加入这场“赌博”。股市的确是商界富有吸引力而又复杂的一部分。
推理判断题。根据第三段中No one Can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well.即“没人知道股票会怎样发展。”可知B选项不正确。由最后一段中的No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling.即“难怪去股市经常被比作赌博。”可知A、D不正确。故选c。
