51._________
A:As
B:Since
C:While
D:Although

答案：C

解析：

本句中的前半部分和后半部分的内容属于对比的关系，故用while来连接。
此空处所引导的是一个非限定性定语从句，来修饰之前的地点名词the Middle East，故此处用where来引导，相当于in which。
call in的含义为“召集，召来”，用在此处最为合适。call off取消；call up给……打电话；call on邀请，拜访。
该空处前一句的内容是本空所在句子的原因，故此处用thus（因此）来表示顺承关系。
此空之前的成分是一个完整的句子结构，故此空处要用非谓语动词来引导之后的成分。including用在名词或代词之前，而included则用在名词或代词之后，故本题选C。
it is surprising that…为固定用法，表达的意思是“令人惊讶的是……”。surprised则一般用来修饰人，表示“感到惊讶的”。
英语中在表达倍数时，常用的一个句型是“倍数+a s…as …”的结构。故本题选A。
第三段第一句说有时一个缺陷会有一个优点来补偿，下文接着举例进行说明。故此处用For example。
此空后面的内容是之前内容的目的，故用for来表目的。
该空之后的内容和之前的内容都为不利生活条件中的优点。故用in a similar way，意为“相似地”。
由句子含义可知，此处需要一个表示原因的引导成分，又因该空之后的内容是一个词组，而不是一个完整的句子，故只能用because of来引导。
solution一般和介词to连用构成solution to the problem或solution to problems的结构。故本题选D。
affect意为“影响”，在此，效果处符合文意，表示“影响中东地区外来工人的一个主要问题是……”。effect为名词，意为“影响，效果”; detect察觉，发现；reflect反映。
in any case意为“无论如何，不管怎样”，在此处符合文意。in case意为“假如，万一”。英语中不存在in all cases和in a case的固定用法。
considerable意为“相当大（多）的”，用在此处符合文意。considerable financial benefits就表示“可观的经济收益”。considerate体贴的，体谅的；considered和considering则分别为consider的过去分词和现在分词形式。

Passage Three

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

One of the most exciting races ever run is now in progress between doctors fighting malaria(疟疾)and mosquitoes. According to the most recent counts 225 million people a year suffer attacks of malaria and more than two million die. Public health workers around the world are doing all t11ev can to destroy malaria before the mosquitoes that pass on the disease become resistant to the poisons now used against them. It's a race against time and against difficulties，with millions of lives in danger and the chances of winning not in man's favour.

Malaria，it is true，has been practically wiped out in thirteen countries. including the United States，and is under attack in many others. But it is equally true that in some parts of the world certain types of malaria-carrying mosquitoes have already learned to resist some of the sprays that formerly killed them. Other types of mosquitoes are not killed as quickly by present sprays as they once were.

The World Health Organization is helping national governments to get rid of malaria before resistance among the mosquito population becomes so great that new poisons will have to be found to replace those in use at present. Most of the countries in the world have started，or are planning，campaigns against mosquitoes. If the race against resistance is won by man，it is possible that ten years from now dais old evil will have disappeared completely from the America，perhaps from the world.

Malaria has been successfully got. rid of in______.

A. all countries

B. some countries

C. no countries

D. most countries

正确答案：A

___________(65)financial benefits which they receive.

_________(64)
A:In case
B:In all cases
C:Inacase
D:In any case

答案：D

解析：

四个选项都是语法连词，但意义各异。这个句子的主从句表达了两种不同的情况，即 some newly independent countries和other countries的不同，用whil。来连接表示对比。
这里用where来引导一个非限定性的定语从句，相当于in which，指前面出现的Middle East，而Middle East为地点名词，只有“where”能引导地点，故选B。
call in意思是“引来，招募”，符合句意。call off取消；call up给······打电话；call on 拜访。
thus用来表示结果。前一句讲了中东地区石油收人增加了，这一句要讲的是结果。
这里需要的是一个分词，故include和includes都可以排除。在剩下的两个分词形式中，应该挑选的是一ing形式，因为其意义是主动的。
这里应该填人的是一个形容词性质的词，surprised是“感到惊奇的”,surprising是“令人感到惊奇的”，故选D。
选项C和D是错误的表达方式，可以排除。选项A和B都表示“······的两倍”，但区别是twice as much用于不可数的物质名词，twice as many用于可数名词。money为不可数名词，故选A。
本段的第一句是主旨句，意思是：有时一个不利之处会得到一个有利之处的补偿。接下来作者用举例来阐述这个观点，因此应该填For example，以示前后两句在意义上的关联。
depend on意思是“依靠······”，如果后面想表示出在哪一方面依靠别人，就要用介词for 表示。
In a similar way这个句首的状语表明这一句所讲的内容是类似的，实际上这前后两句话讲的都是生活条件艰苦这一不利之处所带来的好处。
because和because of都表示原因，但是前者要接句子，后者要接短语，故选A。
solution后面习惯上用to这个词。
affect是动词，意思是“影响”，符合句意。effect是名词，意思是“效果”; detect是动词，意思是“察觉”; reflect是动词，意思是“反映”。
in any case意思是“尽管如此，无论如何”，符合句意。in case万一；in a case和in all cases不是固定的表达方式。
considerable意思是“相当大的，可观的”，符合句意。considerate考虑周到的，体贴的。

Vocational Education

Vocational education refers to education for a particular occupation.Industrialized countries have seen a fall in demand for unskilled workers,and an increase in jobs in the professional,technical,commercial,and administrative sector. Vocational education is traditionally associated with trades and crafts: young people were apprentice to employers for a number of years and learned on the job.Today the focus has shifted from the workplace to secondary and higher education institutions,and from employers to government provision and finance.Trainees in most occupations combine workplace training with study at a technical or academic institution.In the former Soviet Union, school and work were always strongly linked from primary school.Germany provides nine out of ten young people with entering higher education with vocational training,and training is planned from national down to locate level through joint committees of government representatives,employers,and trade unions.
In some countries,skills are being grouped and"job families"are created so that individuals can move between jobs with similar technical requirements.In other occupations"competency-based education"is advocated to equip individuals with"transferable"as well as specific skills.In developing countries,where it is traditional for children to work from an early age,only a tiny proportion of students follow a formal vocational program,while the long specialist training of professionals such as doctors,lawyers,and engineers is a costly burden.Training places for technicians,nurses,teachers,and the essential workers are often limited.Worldwide,there is a slow but steady increase in the numbers of women training for occupations of influence in science,technology,law,and business.It is also becoming clear that one course of vocational education is not enough for a lifetime. Retraining,through continuing education is essential.

So far as vocational training is concerned,industrialized countries need more workers for jobs in the professional sector.
A: Right

第一篇

Gross National Happiness

In the last century,new technology improved the lives of many people in many countries.However,one
country resisted these changes.High in the Himalayan mountains of Asia,the kingdom of Bhutan remained
separate. Its people and Buddhist（佛教）culture had not been affected for almost a thousand years. Bhutan,
however,was a poor country.People died at a young age.Most of its people could not read,and they did not
know much about the outside world.Then,in 1972,a new ruler named King Jigme Singye Wangchuck
decided to help Bhutan to become modern,but without losing its traditions.
King Wangchuck looked at other countries for ideas.He saw that most countries measured their progress
by their Gross National Product(GNP).The GNP measures products and money. When the number of
products sold increases,people say the country is making progress.King Wangchuck had a different idea for
Bhutan.He wanted to measure his country's progress by people's happiness.If the people's happiness
increased,the king could say that Bhutan was making progress.To decide if people were happier,he created
a measure called Gross National Happiness(GNH).
GNH is based on certain principles that create happiness.People are happier if they have health care,
education,and jobs.They are happier when they live in a healthy,protected environment. They are happier
when they can keep their traditional culture and customs.Finally,people are happier when they have a
good,stable government.
Now there is some evidence of increased GNH in Bhutan.People are healthier and are living longer.
More people are educated and employed.Twenty-five percent of the land has become national parks,and the
country has almost no pollution.The Bhutanese continue to wear their traditional clothing and follow their
ancient Buddhist customs.Bhutan has also become a democracy.In 2008,King Wangchuck gave his power
to his son.Although the country still had a king,it held its first democratic elections that year. Bhutan had
political parties and political candidates for the first time.Finally,Bhutan has connected to the rest of the
world through television and internet.
Bhutan is a symbol for social progress.Many countries are now interested in Bhutan's GNH.These
countries are investigating their own ways to measure happiness.They want to create new policies that take
care of their people,cultures,and land.
Brazil may be the next country to use the principles of GNH.Brazilian leaders see the principles of GNH
as a source of inspiration.Brazil is a large country with a diverse population.If happiness works as a measure
of progress in Brazil,perhaps the rest of the world will follow.

According to GNH,people are happier if they_________.
A:have new technology
B:can change their religion
C:have a good,stable government
D:have more money

答案：C

解析：

由文章第一段倒数第一句“a new ruler named King Jigme Singye Wangchuck decided …" 可知，Jigme Singye Wangchuck是一位国王，故选D。
由文章第一段倒数第一句“King Jigme Singye Wangchuck decided to help Bhutan to be- come modem , but without losing its traditions”可知，国王Jigme Singye Wangchuck决定要使自己的国家除实现现代化外还要保留自己的传统习俗，故选D。
由文章第二段第四句“When the number of products sold increases , people say the country is making progress.”可知，对于用GNP(国民生产总值）衡量进步的国家而言，当生产的产品销售量增加时，这个国家才算是有所进步，故选A。
由文章的第三段内容可知，GNH是以能否使人们产生幸福感来衡量的。A、B、D三项的内容都不包含在这些标准之中，故选C。
由文章倒数第二段的内容可知，许多国家都对不丹王国的国民幸福总值（GNH）很感兴趣，并在研究各自衡量幸福的标准。这些国家并未采用GNH，也没有通力合作，形成国民幸福指数的指标；同时也没效仿不丹和巴西的实例，故选D。

这里需要的是一个分词，故include和includes都可以排除。在剩下的两个分词形式中，应该选择-ing形式，因为其表示主动意义。
这里应该填入的是一个形容词性质的词，surprised是“感到惊奇的”，常用来指人。sur-prising是“令人感到惊奇的”，一般用来形容物，故选D。
选项C和D是错误的表达方式，可以排除。选项A和B都表示“……的两倍”，但区别是twiceasmuch用于不可数的物质名词，twiceasmany用于可数名词。money为不可数名词，故选A。
本段的第一句是主旨句，意思是：有时一个不利会得到一个有利的补偿。接下来作者用例子来阐述这个观点，因此应该填Forexample，以示前后两句在意义上的关联。

solution习惯上与to这个介词相搭配。
affect是动词，意思是“影响”，符合句意。effect是名词，意思是“效果”;detect是动词，意思是“察觉”;reflect是动词，意思是“反映”。
inanycase意思是“不管怎样，无论如何”，符合句意。incase以防万一；inacase和inallcases均不是固定的表达方式。
