22． French is much (easy) ______ than Chinese.

正确答案：easier

解析：法语比中文要简单得多。本题考查形容词的比较级than标志着句子结构为比较级much用来修饰形容词的比较级。

China.

正确答案：joined

解析：本题译文：约翰2002年进入公司以来，一直担任销售经理一职。本题考查时态。现在完成时态经常和since，for连用，其结构是have／has十p.p.(动词的过去分词)，而且since后的从句时态是过去时。因此该空格处应填动词的过去式，即join的过去式joined。 注意：现在完成时态经常和since，for连用，其结构是have／has+p.p.区别在于：since用来说明动作起始时间，for用来说明动作延续的时间长度。 例如：(1)I have lived here since I was born．自从我出生，我就在这里生活。 (2)I have lived here for more than twenty years．我在这里生活二十多年了。

Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.

Task 1Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions

or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice.

Most of us might think a life without pain would be sweet. Not so for three-year-old Gabby Gingras, who has a rare disorder which means she can not tell when she is hurting herself. As a baby, she did not cry when given a blood test. While her teeth were growing, she bit her fingers until they bled and she hurt her tongue. When a tooth was knocked out, she did not cry—all because she cannot feel physical pain. Now, she was partly blinded by her habit of putting one finger in her eyes. Her eyes improved only after Mr. Gingras made her wear swimming goggles 24 hours a day. Doctors were confused by her condition so her parents set about finding out for themselves. Mother Trish gave up her job and finally found the answer on the Net. Gabby had a disorder that could not be cured. The family visited another sufferer—one of only 25 in the US—but admitted:” It’s discouraging”. They discovered the 24-year-old girl of South Dakota was in a wheelchair after losing both legs to infections. As a girl, she was unaware when she was hurting her legs.

28． The three-year-old girl is suffering from a rare illness that ______. A．she has never cried since she was a baby B．she is made half blind by the strange illness C．she often chews her own tongue D．she is unable to feel pain physically

正确答案：D 解析：事实细节题。由文章中的”all because she cannot feel physical pain”可得知答案。

29． The word “goggles” in Paragraph 6 most probably means ______. A．short pants B．special glasses C．a rare suit D．a safety belt

正确答案：B

解析：判断推理题。文章说她的眼睛几乎失明了，因为戴了goggles后让她的视力有了好转，因此可得知她戴的是一种特殊的游泳眼镜。

30． How was the girl’s mother when she finally found some information about her illness?

A．She became more hopeful.

B．She grew angry with the doctor. C．She did not lose heart. D．She was disappointed.

正确答案：D

解析：细节推理题。文章倒数第二段说”...but admitted: It’s discouraging.”说明是令她父母感到灰心沮丧的。

31． In the US, the total cases of sufferers of the same illness are no more than ______.

A．two B．ten

C．twenty-five D．a hundred

正确答案：C 解析：事实细节题。由”another sufferer—one of only 25 in the US”可得出答案为25人。

32． In telling the case of the little girl, the writer of this passage has shown his A．sympathy B．worry C．humor D．excitement

正确答案：A

解析：文章多次用到”作为一个孩子，她没法感觉到疼痛”等语言，说明作者很同情这个小女孩。

Task 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45.

Peter Fern was mad on mountains. Climbing was the love of his life. Church towers, seaside cliffs, rock faces, ice mountains, anything—”if it’s there” he used to say, “then I want to climb it”. So the news of his marriage gave me a surprise. I’d never known him to take much interest in girls. Well, well, Peter Fern a married man. I couldn’t get over it. I wondered whether his wife would try to stop some of his risky adventures. She was French perhaps—from that place where he usually spent his holidays. Chamonixm, wasn’t it? From Chamonix he’s climbed Mont Blanc on his 17th birthday, and one of the Aifuilles the day after. That was it, then: she was French from a family, most of whom like climbing. No doubt. No other explanation. A month later I met them both in town. Anna surprised me because she was English. She was a dancer in the theatre. “Never climbed more than 60 steps in my life”. She told me. “Peter has his interests, and I’ve got mine. No problems”. “No problems”. “None at all”, Peter said, smiling. “Where did you spend your honeymoon?” “I flew to New York to see the Drake Dancers on Broadway. A wonderful show”. Peter said, “I didn’t want to miss the good weather. So I went to Switzerland and climbed the north face of the Eiger with Allen Dunlop. Great fun, the Eiger. Grand place a honeymoon. I’ll show you the photographs we took one day”.

33． Peter was mad on mountains. means ______. A．he enjoyed to climb mountains B．he was angry on mountains C．he lost his senses on mountains

D．he enjoyed climbing mountains very much

正确答案：D

解析：be mad on sth．意思是”对某事极感兴趣或非常入迷”。”enjoy”后一般接名词或动名词才表示”喜爱，热爱”，所以选D。

34． The risky adventures means ______. A．expensive adventures B．dangerous adventures C．terrible adventures D．unkind adventures

正确答案：B

解析：此题属词义辨析题。”risky”表示”充满危险或风险的”，故选B。

35． According to the passage, after Peter’s marriage ______. A．he would stop mountain climbing because his wife didn’t like it B．his wife would stop him from mountain climbing C．he himself would give up his love

D．Peter would continue to keep his love and so he did

正确答案：D

解析：根据文章第三段的描述，婚后彼得有自己的兴趣爱好，而妻子也有自己的爱好，两人互不干扰：就彼得的蜜月旅行来看，他们也确实做到了这样。

36． The writer had thought the only mason why Fern was married was that the girl ______.

A．might be French living near the mountain, and from a mountaineer family B．would not stop his climbing C．perhaps came from French D．might live near the mountain

正确答案：A

解析：根据文章第二段作者的揣测，彼得结婚的理由应该是新娘来自法国，来自一个喜欢攀登的家庭，此外别无可能。

37． Peter and Anna’s marriage is probably ______.

A．a failure because neither of them likes the other’s love B．happy because each of them respects the other’s love C．painful because either of them would do one’s own thing

D．a mistake because either of them wouldn’t care the other’s love

正确答案：B

解析：根据文章第三段两人的叙述及他们使用的形容词”wonderful”、”great”等，可以推测他们的婚姻肯定很幸福美满，最起码是”No problems”。

We need at least six conference rooms, all equipped with computers, a fax machine, and a copy machine; we also need banquet(宴会) facilities for two occasions for 150 guests.

Part IV Translation from English to Chinese (25 minutes)Directions: This part is to test your ability to translate English into Chinese. Each of the four sentences (No. 61 to No. ) is followed by four choices of suggested translation marked A, B, C and D. Make the best choice and mark the corresponding letter in the blanks. For question No. 65, write your translation of the paragraph in the corresponding space.

53． The art of pleasing is a very necessary one to possess; but a very difficult one to acquire.

A．让人高兴的艺术是非常有必要的，但却是一个难以学会的艺术。 B．取悦于人的艺术是非常有必要的，但却难以学会。 C．快乐的艺术是非常有必要的，但却难以学会。 D．请客的艺术是非常有必要的，但却难以获得。

正确答案：B

D．只要能表达你的意思，尽量选用拼写简单的单词。

正确答案：B

解析：so long as只要；plain平坦，朴素，简单。

55． The mayor said that he would not attend the meeting himself, but his secretary would come instead.

A．说他不能亲自来参加会议了，但他的秘书会代他来参加。 B．说他不能来参加会议，但他让他的秘书代他来。 C．说他的秘书将代他参加一个他不愿参加的会议。 D．说他的秘书将取代他的职位来参加这个会议。

正确答案：A

解析：would在此处是will的过去式，表示“将会…”，而不是表示一种意愿；attend the meeting himself意思是“亲自来参加会议”；his secretary would come instead意思是“他的秘书将代他来”，在本句中，显然是指“他的秘书将代他来参加”，可以把“参加”补充上去，使句子意思更加完整。

56． Many good movies have been produced recently，but I still prefer to watch old movies because they are more interesting．

A．人们对电影是有兴趣的，特别是对老片子，所以我主张放映老片子。 B．近来拍了很多好的影片，既古老又饶有趣味，我觉得人人都喜欢看。 C．近来制作了很多好影片，但是我还是喜欢老片，因为老片更有趣。 D．很多好的影片是最近拍的，但我依然觉得过去拍的影片很有意思。

正确答案：C 解析：本题的解题关键在于把握被动句的翻译方法以及produce和watch old movies的意思。英语多被动句，汉语多主动句，所以英语中的多数被动句需要译成主动句。本题中的被动句可以译成“近来制作了很多好的影片”，produce意为“制作，拍摄”，watch old movies意为“看老片”。

57． In the early fifties, only eight or nine out of a hundred young men changed

their jobs within the first three years with a company. Since most jobs take only a year and a half to master, in order to continue learning, they have to make a job change. They have worked for a few years as technical specialists and quickly moved into higher management positions.

正确答案：在五十年代初期，有百分之的年轻人在一家公司工作三年后往往会跳槽。由于大多数工作只需花一年多就可以掌握，为了继续学习，他们就会调换工作。作为技术专家，他们在工作了几年之后会更快地跳到更高的管理岗位。
