11.Liu opened her mouth as if _______  something to Calaf,hut gave up seeing his passionate eyes locked on Turandot.(  )
A.to sayB.wanted to sayC.sayingD.to be saying

分析 刘张开嘴好像要对Calaf说些什么,但看到他热情的眼睛盯着《图兰朵》,他放弃了.

解答 答案:A 考查省略句用法.如果as if 引导的从句是"主语+系动词"结构,可省略主语和系动词等成份,这样as if 后就只剩下名词、不定式、形容词(短语)或动词-ing形式等.本句相当于as if (he was going) to say something to Calaf.故选A.B、C、D三项都不符合英语省略习惯表达.

点评 解答此类问题,要弄清楚省略的部分是单词,短语还是句子,熟悉一些常用的省略表达,然后根据题意和上下文选择最合适的答案.

2.If you are not any kind of a longtime A-list New Yorker celebrity like Woody Allen,chances are that you have never experienced,and will never experience-a meal in a legendary(神奇) Italian-American restaurant called Rao's.
    Rao's,the East Harlem restaurant with a history of more than l00 years,is simply the toughest restaurant to get a reservation in the US,if not the world.Michelin three-star restaurants like elBulli in Spain,often ranked the world's top restaurant,would sell out the second phone lines opened.But in the case of Rao's,the phone lines never open.
    There are about a dozen tables in the tiny restaurant,and each is spoken for,semi-permanently,as regulars have had their reservations for years,and when they can't use them,they often gift them to friends.The place is so small that the owners rarely have the flexibility to do favors even for people they know.   
    Since it is always busy,there has never been a need for publicity.The last remarkable national review of the restaurant came from The New York Times more than 35 years ago.It was already tough to get a table at Rao's but reservations have been non-existent ever sincce the magic review.
    According to a critic who is"very,very lucky to have dined at Rao's a few times,"the experience rivals(堪比)the tasty food.There are no menus at Rao's,and one of the owners will pull up a chair and run through the massive list of options,allowing people to have diner by mixing and matching nearly any ingredient(原料)with any classical Italian style of cooking.The place doesn't take credit cards,isn't open on weekends or for 1unch,and"at some point during your meal the one-room restaurant will almost unavoidably break out in song."It is truly one of a kind,"the critic wrote.

61.Which is probably the best title for thistext?D
A.A lucky critic.   
B.The best restaurant

D.To attract customers to eat in Rao's.
63.What was Rao's like before The NewYork Times review?A
A.Unique and attractive.   
B.Tough and greedy.
C.Terrible and unknown.  
D.Poor and hopeless.
64.Which of the following about Rao's is true?C
A.If yoh want to get a reservation in Rao's,you'd have to phone ahead of time.
B.Rao's history is much longer than that of elBulli in Spain.
C.It's hard fo dine in Rao's partly because it has a limited number of tables.
D.Only the most famous persons can have the chance to have lunch in Rao's.
65.We can conclude from the critic's words thatC.

19.The British aren't having as many children as they used to.One reason is that people are having children much older than before,meaning they have fewer years in which they can have them.After years at university,they need a few years of work experience before they can get the job they want.They might then get married,but it's incredibly expensive to buy a house in the UK.
The above explains why young British people now don't move out of their parents'home until they are around 30years old on average.It is not until they are 30that they can afford their own home.Increasingly,it is not until that age that they can afford to get married and start a new life in a new home.It's only after this age that many young people start thinking about having a child.
So a British person manages to get a job,get a home and get married.Why isn't he or she then having at least two children on average?The main reason is that it is quite expensive to bring up a child in the UK.Why is it expensive?Well,these days,both parents need to work just to pay for their home and living expenses.Because both parents are at work,that means they then need to pay someone to look after their child during the day.Paying for this childcare is nearly always expensive.
The recent financial crisis is making things even harder for families,since unemployment is rising and even fewer people can afford to have children.With so much pressure on families,is it any surprise that the divorce rate is so high?
So what is Britain doing to try and save the British family?The government is trying to make it cheaper to have children.For example,there have been increases in money families can claim from the state each month.Also,there are increasing government subsidies for nursery schools,so that parents do not need to pay so much for child care.
The government is also trying to reduce the number of hours British parents have to work to earn enough money to pay their bills.If parents didn't have to work so many hours,they'd have more time to spend with their children and wouldn't need to spend so much on childcare.On average,a Briton works 49hours a week,which is the most in Europe.The state is now considering introducing laws to encourage companies to improve their employees'work-life balance.Let's hope they're not too late to save the British family.Otherwise,the British will always be too tired,and won't have enough time and money,to have children.

41.Young British people live in their parents'home until around 30becauseC.
A.They are allowed to get married at 30
B.they can't find jobs to support themselves
C.they can't afford a house of their own until then
D.they enjoy family life with their parents
42.The British are now having fewer children than before for all the following reasons EXCEPT thatB.
A.they have fewer years to have children
B.they live much shorter lives than before
C.it is more expensive to bring up a child
D.people are losing their jobs because of the recent financial crisis
43.To make it cheaper to have children,the British government isD.
A.bringing down prices         B.raising the salaries of parents
C.reducing family income tax   D.increasing subsidies for families and nursery schools.
44.It can be inferred from the text thatA.
A.with long work hours,it is hard for British parents to balance life and work
B.more and more families in Britain are breaking up because they are having fewer children
C.among Europeans,British people work hardest and earn the least
D.childcare takes up too much energy and time for the British
45.The underlined word"subsidies"in Paragraph 5meansD.
A.food paid by the government
B.school buildings for poor students

6.Children pushed in buggies which face away from their parents may suffer longterm emotional(情感的)and language problems,according to a study published on Friday.
The research,believed to be the first of its kind,found that children who were not facing the person pushing them were less likely to talk,laugh and communicate with their parents.
The findings were based on a study of 2,722parents and babies and an experiment where 20babies were wheeled in buggies for a mile,facing their parents for half the journey and facing away for the other half.Parents using facetoface buggies were twice as likely to talk to their children while the babies'heart rates fell and they were twice as likely to fall asleep,showing that they were feeling relaxed and safe.
In addition,only one baby out of the 20studied laughed while sitting in an awayfacing buggy.
"Our data(数据) suggests that for many babies today,life in a buggy is emotionally   impoverished and possibly stressful.Stressed babies grow into anxious adults,"said Dr Suzanne Zeedyk,Developmental Psychologist at Scotland's Dundee University who carried out the research.
The study,which was published by National Literacy Trust as part of its"Talk To Your Baby"campaign,found that 62percent of all children observed travelled in awayfacing buggies.
Zeedyk said it would have a negative effect on babies'development if they spent a long time in awayfacing buggies,which would be bad to their ability to communicate with their parent at a time when their brain was developing rapidly.
Laura Barbour of the Sutton Trust,a social mobility charity which funded the research,said buggy manufacturers(制造商) should look closely at the findings.

53.Using awayfacing buggies mayB.
A.benefit both the babies and their parents
B.affect babies'language ability permanently
C.help babies communicate with their parents
D.have positive effect on babies'development
54.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?C
A.Parents may talk twice with the babies in awayfacing buggies.
B.The study suggests children feel relaxed and safe in buggies.
C.The samples (案例)of the study were 20babies wheeled in buggies.
D.One of the 20babies was twice as likely to fall asleep in buggies.
55.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A
A.Best for Kids to Face Parents in Buggy
B.Best for Kids to Communicate with Parents
C.Stressed Babies Grow into Anxious Adults
D.Buggy Manufacturers Care about the Finding.
