20.Until recently daydreaming was viewed as a waste of time or it(61)was considered(consider) an unhealthy escape from real life and its duties.But now some people are taking a fresh look at daydreaming.Some think it may be a very (62)healthy(health) thing to do.Some researchers are finding that daydreaming may be important to mental health.Daydreaming,they tell us,(63)isa good means  of relaxation.But its benefits go(64)beyondthis.A number of psychologists have conducted experiments and have reached some(65)surprising(surprise) conclusion.
Dr.Joan T.Freyberg has concluded that daydreaming contributes growth.It also improves(66)concentration(concentrate),attention span,and the ability to get along with others.Industrialist Henry J.Kaiser believed that much of his success was due(67)tothe positive use of daydreaming.Florence Nightingale dreamed of becoming a nurse.The young Thomas Edison picture(68)dhimselfas an inventor.
For these notable achievers,it appears that their daydreams came(69)true.Dr Harry Emerson Fosdick offered this advice:"Hold a picture of yourself…in your mind's eye,and you will be drawn toward it.Picture yourself (70)vividly(vivid) as defeated and that alone will make victory impossible.

分析 直到最近,白日梦被认为是浪费时间,或者它被认为是一种不健康的逃避现实生活和职责的方式.但现在有些人对于白日梦有了一种新的看法,认为它可能是一个很健康的事,一些研究者发现白日梦可能对心理健康起重要的作用.

解答 61.wasconsidered 考查被动语态.it(daydreaming)和consider是动宾关系,即白日梦被看作…,句子缺少谓语动词,应该用被动语态,故填was considered.
62.healthy考查形容词.根据空前的a very和空后的名词thing,可知此处应用health的形容词形式,故填healthy.
63.is 考查系动词.theytell us是插入语,主语daydreaming是第三人称单数,句意:他们告诉我们,白日梦是一种很好的放松方式,故填is.
64.beyond 考查介词.beyond意为"超出",句意:白日梦的益处不仅仅是让人放松,故填beyond.
65.surprising考查形容词.根据后面的名词conclusion可知,此处应用surprise的形容词修饰名词,故填surprising,意为"令人吃惊的".
66.concentration考查名词.根据前面的improves可知此处应用名词作宾语,故填concentration.
67.to 考查介词.be dueto是固定短语,意为"由于,由…引起的",due在此是形容词,故填to.
68.himself考查反身代词.句意:年轻的托马斯•爱迪生把自己想象成一个发明家.此处意为"把自己想象成…",所以应用反身代词himself.
69.true 考查固定短语.come true是固定短语,意为"实现",故填true.
70.vividly考查副词.因为副词修饰动词,所以修饰动词picture应用vivid的副词形式,故填vividly.

点评 本题目主要考查学生对名词、形容词、副词、固定短语、主谓一致、被动语态、反身代词等基础知识的掌握情况.在平时的学习中,应该熟练掌握单词的词性和它们在句中所起的作用.

5.For centuries,in the countries of south and Southeast Asia,the elephant has been an important part of the culture,economy and religion.And nowhere more so than in Thailand.Unlike its African cousin,the Asian elephant is easily domesticated(驯化).The rare so-called white elephants have actually lent the power of royalty to its rulers,and until the 1920s the national flag was a white elephant on a red background.To the early Western visitors,the  country's romantic name was"Land of the White Elephant".
Today,however,the story is very different.Out of work and out of land,the Thai elephant   struggles for survival in a nation that no longer needs it. The elephant has found itself more or less deserted by previous owners who have moved on to a different economic world and a society in  the western part.And while the elephant's problems began many years ago,now it has a very low  national advantage.
How does the national symbol turn into ignored animals?It is a story of worse environment and the changing lives of the Thais themselves.According to Richard Lair,Thailand's expert on  the Asian elephant and author of the report Gone Astray,at the turn of the  last century,there may well have been as many as 100,000 national elephants in the country.
In the north of Thailand alone,it was estimated (估计) that more than 20,000 elephants were employed in transport,1,000 of them alone on the road between the cities of Chiang Mai and Chiang Saen.     
This was at a time when 90 percent of Thailand was still forest--a habitat that not only supported the animals but also made them necessary to carry goods and people.Nothing ploughs through thick forest better than lots of sure-footed elephants.
By 1950 the elephant population had dropped,but still to the number of 13,397.However,today there-are probably no more than 3,800,with another l,350 wandering free in the national parks.But now,Thailand's forest covers only 20 percent of the land.This deforestation(采伐森林) is the central point of the elephant's difficult situation,for it has effectively put the animals out of work.This century,as the road network grew,the elephant's role as a beast of Burden decreased.
41.What can we know about African elephants from the passage?B
A.It is easy to domesticate them.
B.It is hard to domesticate them.
C.They are living a better life than Asian elephants.
D.Their fate is quite similar to that of Asian elephants.
42.Thailand was once called"Land of the White Elephant"becauseA
A.white elephant was a national symbol until the 1920s
B.white elephant is rarely seen and thus very special
C.white elephant has helped kings to gain the ruling authority
D.this name was so romantic that it was popular among visitors
43.Why is the Thai elephant"out of work",according to the author?D
A.Because there are too many elephants but too few jobs.
B.Because the elephants can't do labor work any longer.
C.Because the government pays little attention to the problem.
D.Because the elephants are no longer useful to their owners.
44.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the elephant population at various times?D
A.There were 100,000 domesticated elephants at the turn of the last century.
B.20,000 elephants were employed in transport in Thailand at the turn of the century.
C.By 1950 the elephant population in Thailand has been quite small.
D.Today the elephant population is estimated at 5,150.
45.The passage is most probably fromC
A.a travel magazine                                      
B.a history book
C.a research report                    
D.an official announcement.
