考查冠词。句意：第一印象是最持久的。毕竟，你永远不可能有第二个机会去再给别人留第一印象。本题强调的重点是第二个机会asecondchance；第二次留一个第一印象，makeafirstimpression。2．C 考查动词在具体语境中的辨析。wound指利器或子弹对肉体造成的伤害，常与战争有关；hurt的过去式和过去分词还是hurt，可排除；injure常指人在意外事故中受到伤害；damage指对物造成损坏，不修饰人，可排除。根据句意可知答案为C。3．D 考查名词。根据常识可知，徒步旅行既可增强体质也可强健个性。故答案为character。4．A 考查状语从句的省略。当状语从句的主语和主句的主语一致，同时从句又含有系动词be时，可把从句的主语和系动词一起省略。unlesswatered的完整形式是unlesstheflowersarewatered。5．B 考查形容词在具体语境中的辨析。句意：湖水平静如镜。calm可指自然界，如空间、天气、海等毫无骚动，风平浪静；silent强调不作声；still指人或物绝对地不动或没有声音；quiet“安静的，宁静的”，指没有声音，不吵闹或心里没有烦恼、焦虑。根据句意答案为B。6．D 如果dozen后加s，则后面需要加of，表示“几十”，是概数。7．B 考查非谓语动词。walking在这里是现在分词短语作伴随状语，表示时间上的同时，相当于WhilehewaswalkinginthefieldsonaMarchafternoon。8．C equal意为“平等的；同样的”。句意：我认为书本知识重要，但亲身经历至少也同样重要。9．D 考查固定结构。cannot/cannever…too…是固定结构，表示“无论……也不过分，越……越好”。第二句句意：你在街上越小心越好。10．C-7-\n 考查状语从句的省略。句意：“比赛会因为天气不好而被取消吗？”“不会，不管下雨还是天晴，比赛将按照排好的日程举行。”第二句相当于No,rainorshine,thematchwillbeheldasitisscheduled。Ⅱ.这是一篇记叙文。叙述了主人公Jenna在进入高中之后所经历的变化以及她逐渐适应变化的过程。11．C 通过空前wasreadyfor以及下文所描述的困难可知，Jenna已经准备好了迎接高中期间的新“挑战”，与最后一句相呼应。12．B 由highschoolwasdifferent可推断出此句表示：(尽管做了准备)然而，高中还是不一样的。和上文是转折关系。13．A 14．D 宣布第二轮选拔赛名单的人应是“裁判员(judge)”，C项为干扰项，candidate意为“申请人，候选人”。15．B 通过句意可知当名单读完还没有她的名字的时候，她的心情应该是“沮丧的”，选项B与herheart连用，表示心情不好。16．C 17．A 通过句中的but可知，此处为转折关系，“她”以前很擅长数学，但现在不这样了。选项A的含义为“(艰难的)奋斗”。18．D 通过句意可知，在她转学英语与历史后，发现她在这些科目上没有遇到麻烦，与前面的数学相比，心情当然是“轻松的”，选项D“relieved”含义为“宽慰的，放心的”。19．C 句意：感觉好多了，她决定暂时不再为数学“烦恼”。20．B 通过下文的newspaper可得出答案。21．A 通过MrsBiden的话可知她并不像Jenna那样对这件事热情、感兴趣。artistic意为“爱好艺术的，有艺术才能的”；sympathetic意为“同情的，表示同情的”；realistic意为“现实主义的”。22．D 句意：很抱歉，但我们的报纸已经有足够的作者了。23．B 被拒绝，Jenna当然“无力地”一笑。weakly在此可理解为“无力地，勉强地”。24．C Jenna感叹高中与初中“不同”。25．D 通过上文可知，Jenna有问题的是数学，因此，她是在数学课上全心解决问题。26．C 问题带来的当然是“麻烦”。27．A 通过上句可知，她解决了数学难题，获得了信心，所以，当Jenna收拾课本的时候，她决心继续努力地去“适应”新的学校。28．B try与句中succeed相呼应。句意：她不确定是否会成功，但她知道她必须去“尝试”。29．D 通过前后含义可知“大池塘里的小鱼”同“小池塘里的大鱼”是对比关系，insteadof表示对比。30．CⅢ.A本文是一篇说明文。主要以时间顺序介绍了广告行业的发展史。31．B 细节理解题。根据第一段的“IntheMiddleAges，merchantsemployed‘towncriers’toreadpublicmessagesaloudtopromotetheirgoods.”可知，在中世纪，商人们雇用“公告传报人”大声读出公众信息来促销产品。故B项正确。32．A 根据第二段的“TheLondonGazettewasthefirstnewspapertosetasideaplacejustforadvertising.”可知，This指的是“在报纸上登广告”，故选A项。33．D 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“Adwriterswerestartingtopaymoreattentiontothedesignofthead-7-\ntext.”可知，广告作者们正开始对广告文字的设计给予更多的关注，故D项正确。34．A 主旨大意题。纵观全文，本文主要介绍了广告业的发展过程，故A项是正确的。B35．C 细节推理题。从最后两段的描述中知道，那天他们做了一件迄今为止作者都认为是伟大的事情——拯救了两条鲸。36．B 细节理解题。由第三段“…itwasprotectedbythearmsofabaythathadonlyonetinychanneltothesea.”可知答案。37．D 细节理解题。由第五段“‘She'stryingtohelpherbaby，butonthewrongside，’myfathersaid.”可知答案。38．A 主旨概括题。从第二段最后一句以及最后一段可以知道拯救生命给人们带来幸福感。-7-
