五、书面表达

假若你是某校英语报的编辑，该报准备举行一次有奖征文活动。主编要求你根据下表内容写一篇百字左右的征文启事：

注意：1. 词数100左右。2. 可根据内容要点适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。

 【答案及解析】 21. B。with pleasure 主要用于回答请求或邀请。 22. C。that which相当于 the problem which。 23. C。kind of 后的名词前通常不用冠词。 24. B。it 指前面提到的 new house。 25. C。achieve 意为“完成”、“做到”。其余三项均不能直接跟名词或代词作宾语。 26. C。all the same 意为“仍然”、“(虽然……)还是”。 27. C。由句子语境和生活常识可推知。 28. C。killing all 200 people aboard 为现在分词短语作结果状语。 29. B。从句意推知。 30. C。one 在此相当于 a break。 31. C。one 在此相当于a question。(from www.nmet168.com) 32. D。so would you 意为“你也一样”。注意其后 if you had a high fever 为虚拟语气。 33. A。注意句末的 please，它表明此直接引语为祈使句，只不过该祈使句带上 everyone 这个主语。既然是祈使句，所以动词用原形。又如：Someone open the door; be quick, please. 34. C。分析：第一个人说“我忘记他的电话号码了”，这个“忘记”应该是现在的情况，即现在忘记了，要不然就没有必要同对方说此话了，故第一空应填 forget；第二个人说“我有他的号码，但我忘记带电话本了”，这个“忘记”应该是过去的情况，即过去忘记带电话本，所以现在电话本不在身上(注意句中的转折连词 but)，故第二空应填 forgot。 35. A。因为此句中的translated为非谓语动词(过去分词)，而不是谓语动词。若在 translated 前加一个助动词 was，则此题应选 B，构成一个非限制性定语从句。  36. A。从空格后difficult jobs of… 推测意思为“be faced with面临”, 此处搭配应用被动语态。 36. C。想把大型的礼物藏起来不是一件容易的事情。question=疑问，matter=麻烦或毛病，business =商业或买卖，均不符句意。 38. B。stay up late 意为“熬夜”。 39. C。平安夜孩子们通常呆着不睡，等待享受圣诞老人送礼物的喜悦。 40. A。尽管孩子们早早上床，因为想看到圣诞老人，会长时间睡不着。 41. A。stare at=瞪着眼睛看，glare at=怒目而视，watch是及物动词，后面不能接at。 42. D。预阅文章得知去年成功地给了孩子们一个大惊喜。 43. B。上文已说大的礼物难藏，作者在把自行车放在储藏室，最担心的是被孩子们发现，而不是喜欢。C、D不符句意。 44. C。如果孩子看到礼物，肯定会问礼物从哪儿来。 45. D。从空格后he didn’t see it 及这次给孩子的惊喜可推知答案。 46. A。it做形式主语为固定句型。 47. B。首先排除不符句意的A、D，再从we knew we wouldn’t get much sleep…，及 at about five o’clock the next morning ,we were… 提示。 48. A。根据圣诞老人总是把礼物塞在孩子的袜子里面传说，应选fill。 49. C。从下文Jimmy came riding into the room on his new bike可知，推进来的是为Jimmy买的自行车。 50. B。根据父母的了解，孩子盼望礼物心切, 肯定会起得很早，其他三个选项不够准确。 51. C。孩子发现礼物的吵闹声不会使人害怕或麻烦，只会把人吵醒。 52. A。before引导的时间状语从句为“还未来得及…, 就…”。 53. A。even 用来加强语气。(from www.nmet168.com) 54. B。on the hands and knees 意为“用手和膝盖爬行”，其中on表示方式。 55. D。作者和妻子刚睡不久就被孩子吵醒，这时气球被玩爆了，一声巨响让他们彻底醒来，这爆炸声也预示喜庆的一天开始了。  56. D  事实细节题。根据第2段首句 Nashville is the capital city of the state of Tennessee 可知答案为 D。 57. D  事实细节题。根据第2段第 2、3 句 Here you don’t have to go to the big auditoriums to enjoy the country music. In the open air restaurants or on the streets, you can always hear the beautiful and sweet sounding folk music 可知答案为 D。 58. C  推理判断题。此题可用排除法。根据第3段第 1 句 Shops selling music records and tapes can be found everywhere in Nashville. 可知选项 A 正确；根据第2段末句 The songs they sing are so touching(动人)that, if you listen attentively, you can feel they are singing with their souls rather than with their voices(他们唱的歌如此动人，如果你专心听，你就会觉得他们不是用声音而是用灵魂在唱。)可知 B正确；根据第3段第 2 句 Many records are made by famous singers 可知 C 正确；因此答案为 D。也可根据文章最后一句They often sing in praises of heroism and true love 得到答案。 59. D  主旨大意题。文章首段点明乡村音乐的发源地，然后介绍其流行性，文章末段说明乡村音乐描述的不同的主题。因此可推知本文主要是写乡村音乐，故答案为 D。 60. A  事实细节题。根据第3段 Each story is followed by four pages of short, simple comprehension and vocabulary exercises. 可知答案。 61. A  推理判断题。根据第2段首句 Twenty soft- cover 16-page mini books… 可知共有 20 本书；再根据 Price: $6.00 for each pack of books (including five books)可知：20÷5= 4。故答案为 A。 62. D  推理判断题。根据上题There are 4 packs of the books in this set，及 $6.00 for each pack和$7.00 for each cassettes (all together four cassettes) 可知：4×6+ 4×7= 52。故答案为D。 63. C  推理判断题。根据第2段第 1 句 Nobody knows for sure how people began to use fire 可知选项 C 正确。故答案为 C。 64. C  推理判断题。根据第3段第 2 句 Children sometimes like to play with them. But matches can be very dangerous 可以推断孩子们不可以玩火柴，是因为火柴可能很危险。故答案为 C。 65. D  根据文章倒数第2段中 Fires need oxygen. Without oxygen they die. There is oxygen in the air…This keeps the air away from a fire and kills it 可以推知答案为 D。 66. C  事实细节题。根据文章最后一句 Be careless with fire, and it will burn you 可知答案为C。 67. B  主旨大意题。根据文章首句 Fire can help people in many ways. But it can also be very harmful 可知火有用但也有害，故答案为 B。 68. D  推理判断题。从文章开头两句 I once knew an old man whose bad memory made him famous. John Smith was so forgetful that he sometimes forgot what he was talking about in the middle of a sentence 可以看出，作者认为教授健忘。 69. D  猜测词义。根据第1段中 Since Smith was a professor at a well known university因为史密斯是一所著名的大学的教授，可以推知他的健忘常常是一种不好的事情。所给的四个选项中 satisfaction 意为“使(欲望)满足的事物, 乐事”，fun意为“有趣事物”，amusement 意为“娱乐”，均不符合语境，因此答案为 D。discomfort 意为“使人不舒服(或不安)的事物。” 70. C  推理判断题。根据 Smith forgot the name of the town he was planning to visit. Smith hurried back home to find out where he was going. The professor’s wife was surprised to see him again so soon 可知史密斯忘了要去哪里旅行使他的妻子感到惊讶的；根据最后 I forgot where I left our children 史密斯忘记把小孩留在哪里了。由此可以推测史密斯肯定会很生气。 71. D  事实细节题。根据第5段首句 In the 1800s, the owner of a chocolate factory in England discovered that sugar removed the bitter taste of cacao 可知在十九世纪英国一家巧克力厂的厂主发现糖能把可可豆的苦味除掉。故答案为 D。 72. D  推理判断题。由第一题可知 A 不对；根据第 3段首句 The word “chocolate” comes from a Mayan word. 可知选项 B 不对；根据第2段 2 句 The beans taste so bitter that even the monkeys say “Ugh!” and run away 可知猴子不喜欢，故排除 C；故答案为 D。也可根据第 2 段最后两句 Workers must first dry and then roast the beans. This removes the bitter taste 得出答案。 73. A  事实细节题。根据第4段 When the Spaniards came to Mexico in the sixteenth century, they started drinking cacao too. Because the drink was strong and bitter, they thought it was a medicine 可知答案。 74. C  推理判断题。根据第 4 段 When the Spaniards came to Mexico in the sixteenth century, they started drinking cacao too 可知 c 是在16世纪；根据5段前两句 In the 1800s, the owner of a chocolate factory in England discovered that sugar removed the bitter taste of cacao. It quickly became a cheap and popular drink 可知 d是在 19 世纪而且 a 在 d 后面；由此可判断答案为 C。 75. B  推理判断题。根据第1段最后两句 Mexicans make a hot chocolate sauce called mole and pour it over chicken. The Mexicans also eat chocolate with spices(香料) like chili peppers 可推知墨西哥湾人非常喜欢吃巧克力。

76. 把am改为was。1965年就出生了，当然用过去式。 77. 去掉1965前面的in。表示“某年某月(某日)”时，“年”前不用介词，下文有类似的例子。 78. 此行无错。 79. 把air force base前的the改为a。我被送往“一个”空军基地，而不是特指“那个”空军基地。 80. 把hardly改为hard。hardly是“几乎不”的意思，hard才是“努力地”之意。 81. 把because改为so。根据语境，在此表因果关系。 82. 在chosen后加as。“某人被选为…”的英文表达是“sb be chosen as /to be…”。 83. 去掉space前的the。space作“太空、天空”讲，是不可数名词，习惯上不用冠词。 84. 把circle改为circles。14圈，显然要用复数。 85. 在have后面加been。因为“我”是被给予了机会。  书面表达范文 In order to improve our oral ability in English, we’ve decided to associate with the Student Union to hold an English story contest in the No. 5 Meeting Hall on July 15.

In ancient times, rainmakers claimed to be able to bring rain by many methods: dancing, singing, killing various kinds of living creatures (including humans), and blowing a stream of water into the air from a kind of pipe. 　　More recently, some rainmakers claimed to make rain by shooting guns, causing explosions, or burning chemical, the smoke of which was supposed to cause rain to fall. These rainmakers asked for as much as 1,000 dollars to make an inch of rain. One was so effective that he was almost hanged. He was believed to have caused a twenty-inch rain in southern California that flooded that land, killed several people, and did millions of dollars’ worth of damage. 　　Before 1946, rainmakers were either liars or honest people who have good luck. Scientific rain making was started in that year by Vincent J. Schaefer, a scientist at the laboratories of the General Electric Company in New York State. His success was the result of a lucky accident that changed years of failure into victory. 　　56. One rainmaker was almost hanged because _____. 　　A. he did not make rain at all 　　B. he asked for too much money 　　C. people thought he caused too much rain 　　D. he killed several people 　　57. The underlined word liars means _____. 　　A. people who tell lies 　　　　 B. tools used to make rain 　　C. persons who make rain　　　　 D. people who have good luck 　　58. Which of the following methods can make rain? 　　A. Killing pigs and sheep. 　　B. Blowing a stream of water into the air from a kind of pipe. 　　C. Shooting guns or causing explosions. 　　D. None of the above is right. 　　59. Who was the first rainmaker succeeding in making rain? 　　A. The one who caused a twenty-inch rain in southern California. 　　B. Before 1946, a rainmaker who happened to have good luck. 　　C. Vincent J.Schaefer, in 1946. 　　D. The passage doesn’t tell us his or her name. B 　　On Christmas Eve a few years ago, an English couple received a very special telephone call. It was only a 20-second call but it was very important. The Haydens’ 15-year-old daughter had disappeared six months before. On Christmas Eve she rang them. “I’m phoning to wish a happy Christmas,” she said, “I love you.” 　　Ronals and Edwine Hayden were so happy that they started a special telephone service called “Alive and Well”. The service helps parents to get in touch with children who have run away from home. 　　Young people can phone “Alive and Well” and leave a message for their parents. The call is answered by answering machines. So no one can speak to the child or make him return home. Parents of runaway children who are under eighteen can ask the police to bring their children home. So children do not want to tell their parents where they are. Through “Alive and Well” they can telephone their parents without worrying about this or giving out their addresses. 　　The Haydens and their helpers write down the tape-recorded telephone messages and connect the addresses given. Many of the 30,000 British teenagers who have left home are probably in London. For only two pence they can go into a telephone coin box and call their parents. They can dial 5675339 and stop a parent’s worry: Is he dead or alive? 　　60. The Haydens’ daughter rang her parents _____. 　　A. because she knew she had done something wrong 　　B. in order to give them her address 　　C. to say she was coming home soon 　　D. in order to comfort her worried parents 　　61. If you ring “Alive and Well”, _____. 　　A. you will get the information you want 　　B. your message will be passed over to your parents 　　C. your information will be kept a secret 　　D. your parents will know where you are 　　62. Which of the following is true? 　　A. The Haydens received an “Alive and Well” call from their daughter before Christmas. 　　B. An “Alive and Well” call usually costs only two pence because it is quite near and short. 　　C. In this passage at least 30,000 British teenagers don’t want to live with their parents. 　　D. The “Alive and Well” call is far less important than the message it sends. 　　63. Through “Alive and Well”, parents of runaway children _____. 　　A. often fail to persuade their children to return home 　　B. know nothing from their children except their addresses 　　C. can say nothing to their children 　　D. can ask the police to help them to find the lost children C 　　In exactly a year, the most important event since World War II will take place in Europe—the start of the single European currency. 　　For 40 years, Western European countries have been slowly changing their political and economic structure. Their aim has been to replace the confusing and wasteful system of national currencies with a single, united economy. Now this process is entering its last period. In one year’s time, on 1 January 1999, member countries of the European Union (EU) will link their economies together. Three years later, in 2002, their national currencies will be replaced by a single, EU-wild currency, the “Euro”. 　　The single currency has taken a long time to arrive. It was first considered over ten years ago, when the EU set up the single market. This aimed to improve EU competitiveness in world markets by allowing for the free movement of people and goods throughout the Union. A single currency was accepted as the logical extension to removal of these trade barriers. 　　64. The single European currency is called _____. 　　A. pound 　　B. franc 　　C. EU 　　D. Euro 　　65. The single currency is _____. 　　A. earlier than the single market 　　B. as early as the single market 　　C. later than the single market 　　D. as late as the single market 　　66. Which of the following is NOT true? 　　A. Before 1999, people in the EU were able to move freely throughout the union. 　　B. Setting up the single market is the most important event in Europe after World War II. 　　C. The Euro will take the place of currencies of the member countries in the EU. 　　D. The USA is not a member of the EU. 　　67. Which is the best title of this passage? 　　A. The Euro 　　　　　　　B. The EU 　　C. The single Market 　　D. How to Use the Euro D 　　Art museums are places where people can learn about various cultures. The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall. 　　People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale. 　　One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding. 　　In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippos to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums, and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life. 　　68. Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they _____. 　　A. show more technologically advanced products 　　B. help increase the sales of products 　　C. show why the products have sold well 　　D. attract more people than store windows do 　　69. The author believes that most design museum visitors _____. 　　A. do not admire mass-produced products 　　B. are puzzled with technological exhibits 　　C. dislike exhibits in art museums 　　D. know the exhibits very well 　　70. The choices open to design museums _____. 　　A. are not as strict as those to art museums 　　B. are not aimed to interest the public 　　C. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitors 　　D. often contain precious exhibits 　　71. The best title for this passage is _____. 　　A. The forms of design museums 　　B. The exhibits of design museums 　　C. The nature of design museums 　　D. The choices open to design museums E 　　The Man of Many Secrets—Harry Houdini—was one of the greatest American entertainers in the theater this century. He was a man famous for his escapes—from prison cells, from wooden boxes floating in rivers, from locked tanks full of water. He appeared in theaters all over Europe and America. Crowds came to see the great Houdini and his “magic” tricks. 　　Of course, his secret was not magic or supernatural powers. It was simply strength. He had the ability to move his toes as well as he moved his fingers. He could move his body into almost any position he wanted. 　　Houdini started working in the entertainment world when he was 17, in 1891. He and his brother Theo performed card tricks in a club in New York. They called themselves the Houdini Brothers. When Harry married in 1894, he and his wife Bess worked together as magician and assistant. But for a long time they were not very successful. Then Harry performed his first prison escape, in Chicago in 1898. Harry persuaded a detective to let him try to escape from the prison, and he invited the local newspaperman to watch. 　　It was the publicity that came from this that started Harry Houdini’s success. Harry had fingers trained to escape from handcuffs and toes trained to escape from ankle chains. But his biggest secret was how he unlocked the prison doors. Every time he went into the prison cell, Bess gave him a kiss for good luck—and a small skeleton key, which is a key that fits many locks, pass quickly from her mouth to his. 　　Harry used these prison escapes to build his fame. He arranged to escape from the local prison of every town he visited. In the afternoon, the people of the town would read about it in their local newspapers, and in the evening every seat in the local theater would be full. What was the result? World-wide fame, and a name remembered today. 　　72. According to the passage, Houdini’s success in prison escapes depends on _____. 　　A. his special tricks and supernatural powers 　　B. his unusual ability and a skeleton key 　　C. his magic tricks and unhuman powers 　　D. his wisdom and magic tricks 　　73. In the fourth paragraph, the underlined word “this” refers to _____. 　　A. his first prison escape 　　B. the year 1898 　　C. the publicity 　　　　　　　 D. Harry Houdini’s success 　　74. It can be inferred from the passage that Houdini became famous _____. 　　A. in 1894 　　　　　　 B. before he married 　　C. at the age of 17 　　D. when he was about 24 　　75. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? 　　A. A Skeleton Key 　　 B. A Man of Many Secrets 　　C. World-wide Fame 　　D. Great Escape 　　第二小题：开放作文（满分15分） 　　根据下面提供的情景，写一段接续文字。 　　注意：词数不少于50个。 　　Suppose you win a prize of 20,000 RMB in a competition.
