    14．We are so busy that no one in the office can be ______for any other work．（　　）
    A．drawnB．pulledC．sparedD．saved

    分析 我们太忙了，以至于办公室里抽不出人手去做别的工作．

    解答 答案：C
    该题考查动词意义辨析，drawn意为"拖、拽、绘画"，pull意为"拉、拖"，spare意为"抽出、腾出"，save意为"节省、拯救"，由We are so busy"我们太忙了"可知，这里是指抽不出时间，所以应用spare，故选C．

    点评 点评：考查动词及动词搭配辨义时，要准确掌握每个动词或搭配含义，并根据题干含义或逻辑关系选择正确答案．

    4．Nowadays many people are concerned about the problem of what to do with electronic waste such as old televisions，computers，radios，cellular telephones and other electronic equipment．
    Electronic trash，or e-waste，is piling up faster than ever in American homes and businesses．People do not know what to do with old televisions or computers so they throw them in the trash．
    National Solid Waste Management Association （NSWMA） state programs director Chaz Miller says the large amount of electronic waste Americans product is not unexpected．
    The US Environmental Protection Agency （EPA） estimates more than 400million consumer electronic items are dumped each year，and there is a push by more states to ban the waste from landfills （垃圾填埋场） and create recycling programs．They can be torn apart and sorted for useable parts．Mike Fannon who runs the plant in Baltimore says，"There are lots of valuable metals that can be recovered and reused instead of just putting them in the landfill，and in certain components there are some materials that should not really be in the landfill．"
    Fannon says nearly 20percent of electronic waste is recycled nationwide．Thirteen years ago，it was only about 6percent．Recycling rates continue to rise as more communities have banned electronics from landfills in order to keep e-waste poisons like lead （铅） and mercury （汞） out of garbage dumps．
    This year several states like Vermont imposed a ban on electronic waste in landfills．More than 25other states have also adopted bans on e-waste in landfills．Chaz Miller says more can be done to boost electronic waste recycling．
    "We can do much better，"noted Miller．"I think clearly our goal should be to do as well as we do recycling newspapers．"

    32．Which of the following does NOT belong to e-waste？D
    A．Old televisions．
    B．Old computers．
    C．Old cell phones．
    D．Old newspapers．
    33．Why is e-waste banned from landfills in many states？C
    A．Because it can not be recycled．
    B．Because the landfills are already full．
    C．Because it might damage the environment．
    D．Because it can be shipped to other countries．
    34．According to Mike Fannon，what might be the best way of dealing with e-waste？A
    A．Recycling it．
    B．Selling it．
    C．Burying it．
    D．Breaking it．
    35．What can we learn from the passage？B
    A．Chaz Miller works for EPA．
    B．Miller is optimistic about the future of e-waste．
    C．At present，less than 10percent of e-waste is recycled．
    D．All states in the US have banned e-waste from landfills．

    5．Starting in l972，the National Park Service established a policy for forest fires calle Natural Burn．It was acknowledged that some forest fires，such as those caused by lightning were necessary for forests to maintain balanced ecosystems，so the fire should be allowed to burn．However，a big fire in Yellowstone National Park in l988 caused this policy to be abandoned since the fire was initially allowed to burn yet soon out of control．As a result，the fire of l988 destroyed much of Yellowstone，which is America's oldest and most beloved national park．Massive areas of plants were destroyed，and large empty spaces and acres of burned and blackened trees greeted visitors．The rivers and streams were choked with ash，and the ecosystem of the park was changed beyond repair．
        In addition，great numbers of animals were killed by the fires that bumed out of control．The fires were driven by high winds，moving as many as ten miles a day．Many small animals died in the flames．The fires'rapid advances gave the wildlife little chance to escape．Even today，few of these small forest animals have returned to live in the park．In the years immediately following the fires，the numbers of visitors declined rapidly．No one was interested in seeing a blackened and treeless park on vacation．Yellowstone had previously been famous for its amazing views and unique geological formations such as the geyser Old Faithful．But now its reputation as America's wonder is damaged permanently．

    9．Mark is leaving．Please excuse me if I'm a little pensive today．You probably don't know Mark，but you might be lucky enough to know someone just like him．He's been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years，performing professional skills．He's never been all that interested in getting credit for the terrific work he does．He just wants to do his job，and to do it superbly well．And now he's moving on to an exciting new professional opportunity．It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime，and we're genuinely，sincerely pleased for him．But that doesn't make it any easier to say goodbye to a dear friend and trusted colleague．
    Life has a way of throwing these curve balls at us，when we start to get comfortable with a person，a place or a situation．A terrific neighbor moves away．A child in the family graduates．Another child finds new love through marriage．
    Our ability to cope with change and disruption determines our peace，happiness and contentment in life．But how do we do that？
    A friend of mine，Gibbon，who works for the government，is fond of reminding his colleagues that survivability depends upon adaptability．And there's Chris，the California surf-rat，who once told me that the answer to life's problems can be summed up in four words："Go with the flow．""It's like surfing，"Chris explained，"You can't organize the ocean．Waves just happen．You ride them where they take you．Sure，you're always hoping for the perfect wave where you can get，but mostly you just take them the way they come．"
    I'm not exactly sure，but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of events-both good and bad．No matter how deft your organizational skills，there will always be life-influencing factors over which you have no control．The truly successful person expects the unexpected，and is prepared to make adjustments if the need arises．
    We're going to miss Mark，just as you'll miss that neighbor or that graduate．But rather than dwell on the sadness of our parting，we'll focus on our hopes for a brighter future for him，and for us．And then we'll go out and do everything we can to make that future happen．

    31．The underlined word"pensive"in Paragraph 1 probably meansC．
    A．thankful       
    B．pleased       
    C．unhappy       
    D．shameful
    32．According to para.1，which of the following sentence is NOT true？A
    A．Mark is lucky enough to know someone like him and gets promoted．
    B．Mark is quite professional about his work and seldom asks for praise．
    C．Mark is leaving for an exciting new professional opportunity．
    D．Mark is the center in the office because he is skillful at his job．
    33．What can we infer from Paragraph 2？B
    A．Although there are so many incidents in our lives，we should feel happy．
    B．Life is full of unexpected changes that surprise people．
    C．Life is filled with disappointments that upset people．
    D．It's easy for us to cope with the relationships with people around
    34．Both Gibbon and Chris support the idea that people shouldD．
    A．ignore the problems in life and live happily
    B．hope for the best but prepare for the worst
    C．stop trying to take control of everything in life
    D．follow the trend and accustom themselves to it
    35．The author probably does NOT agree thatA．
    A．one can take control of everything with skills and determination
    B．those who are successful are able to adapt themselves to the changes
    C．paying too much attention to the past is not a wise choice
    D．people should spare no efforts to struggle for a brighter future．

    18．Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men．
    In a survey done for insurer MetLife，51% of women said they drive more safely．The evidence is on their side：Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving．"Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding （守法的） drivers，which leads to fewer accidents，"the report says．However，not all male drivers share the same opinion．Of the men surveyed by MetLife，39% claimed male drivers were safer．The findings did back them up on one point：automotive knowledge．The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control，which helps prevent rollover accidents．
    Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money．Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims，and for now，that mainly includes women．In general，women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men．A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states．Among individual states，women get the greatest advantage in Wyoming （where they pay 20% less），South Dakota and Washington，D．C．，where their insurance costs are 16% lower．
    "More than 11，900 male drivers died in U．S．traffic accidents in 2009，compared with just under 4，900 women drivers，"according to the study．"Based on miles traveled，men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled，vs.1.7 deaths for women．"
    64．According to the study，female driversC
    A．are more aggressive while driving         
    B．are more interested in auto knowledge
    C．are more likely to stick to driving laws 
    D．are more familiar with safety equipment
    65．Insurance companies focus on female driver clients probably because theyDA．cause more accidents on the road
    B．pay more money to the insurance companies
    C．take the most part of the insurance clients
    D．have the lowest amount of money on insurance claims
    66．We can infer from the passage thatD
    A．men are 3.1 times more likely to get tickets than women
    B．all women in the USA pay the same for their auto insurance
    C．more female drivers die every year than male drivers
    D．women are generally safer drivers than the opposite gender
    67．The writer mainly develops paragraphs byB．
    A．giving examples                      
    B．making comparisons
    C．drawing a conclusion                  
    D．presenting an argument．
