第1题：
Passage Five
In America, every student in his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver's education.
The course is divided up into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations and driving time to practice driving. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students are divided up into groups of four. The students and the instructor go out driving for two hour blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving time per outing. Drivers Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes, one on the driver's side and one on the other side where the instructor sits. Thus, if the student driver should run into difficulties the instructor can take over.
After a student has passed the driver's education course and reached the appropriate age to drive (this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old), he must take his driver's test. The person must pass all three tests in order to be given a driver's license. If the person does well in his or her driver's education class, he or she will pass the test with flying colors and get a driver's license.
51. In America, the driver's course mentioned above______.
A. is considered as part of the advanced education
B. is given to anyone wanting to get a driver's license
C. is carried on after students graduate from high school
D. is offered to all the students of Grade 2 in high school
正确答案：D51．答案为D 根据第一段every student in his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver's education可知高中二年级的学生必须修驾驶课。

第一篇
A recent study,published in last week's Journal of American Medical Association,offers a picture of how risky it is to get a lift from a teenage driver. Indeed,a 16-year-old driver with three or more passengers is three times as likely to have a fatal accident as a teenager driving alone,by contrast,the risk of death for drivers between 30 and 59 decreases with. each additional passenger.
The author also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased dramatically after 10 pm,and especially after midnight.With passengers in the car,the driver was even more likely to die in a late-night accident.
Robert Foss,a scientist at the University of North Carolina Highway safety Research Center, says the higher death rates for teenage drivers,have less to do with"really stupid behavior" than with just a lack of driving experience."The basic issue,"he says,"is that adults who are responsible for issuing licenses fail to recognize how complex and skilled a task driving is."
Both he and the author of the study believe that the way to mitigate（使······缓解）the problem is to have states institute so-called graduated licensing systems,in which getting a license is a multistage process.A graduated license requires that a teenager first prove himself capable of driving in the presence of an adult,followed by a period of driving with passenger restrictions,before graduating to full driving privileges.
Graduate licensing systems have reduced teenage driver crashes,according to recent studies. About half of the states now have some sort of graduated licensing system in place,but only 10 of those states have restrictions on passengers. California is the strictest,with a novice（新手）driver prohibited from carrying any passenger under 20(without the presence of an adult over 25)for the first six months.According to Paragraph 3,which of the following statements is true?
A:Teenagers should spend more time learning to drive.
B:Driving is a skill too complicated for teenagers to learn.
C:Restriction should be imposed on teenagers applying to take driving lessons.
D:The licensing authorities are partly responsible for teenagers' driving accidents.答案：D解析：事实细节题。第一段第二句的by contrast表明青少年驾驶者比成年驾驶者造成致命性事故的可能性更高。另外，从第二段可知，青少年驾驶者在晚上10点后开车更危险，而且当车里有乘客的时候，危险系数最高。综合以上两段就可以判断选项B为正确答案。
推理判断题。第三段结尾句暗示负责发放驾驶执照的成年人轻率地将驾驶执照发给经验不足的青少年，这是青少年发生车祸的部分原因。本文讨论的重点是青少年学会开车后的驾驶执照发放制度，并未讨论青少年学习驾驶的问题，因此其他选项都不能由该段推断出。
事实细节题。答案在第四段的首句。选项A和B在第四段最后一句皆有提及，但它们都是一些具体的做法，不如选项D有概括性。文中并未就青少年驾驶的时间给予限制的建议，因此选项C不正确。
词义推断题。本题考查对graduated一词的理解。根据第四段第一句中的“…is a multistage process”及第二句中的“first, followed, before”等词，可以看出graduated一词表示的是一个渐进的过程，选项C中的step by step与此同义，因此选项C正确。选项A将 graduated曲解为“毕业”；文中并未提及获得驾照的人必须进入驾驶学校学习，因此选项B不对；文中也没有提到要有多长时间的驾驶经验才算足够长，所以选项D不正确。
事实细节题。本题考查对动词词组的理解。在结尾段的第二句中，短语 have...in place意为“具备、拥有”，选项C为其近义表达。 -

单选题Which of the following is true according to the passage?AAll the adults in the UK are very lazy
BHalf of the children are very fat before they go to school
CPets will be in trouble if their owners don’t keep healthy
DAll people in Glasgow feel ashamed because they don’t get enough exercise
正确答案： C解析：
推理判断题。第二段提到“half of the adults are so lazy”，因此A项“所有的成年人都很懒惰”属于以偏概全；第六段提到“one in six children in the UK are very fat before they start school”，所以B项中的“一半”错误。倒数第二段提到“Glasgow, was shamed as the laziest city in the UK, with 75% asked thinking they do not get enough exercise”，所以D项中的“all the people”也属于以偏概全。因此C项正确。 -
第6题：

Bthey should be prohibited from taking on passengers
Cthey should not be allowed to drive after 10 p. m.

正确答案： A解析：
分析判断题。本文重点强调森林火灾的好处，一定的火灾是有必要的。A项说不必扑灭所有的森林火灾，符合文章的观点。B选项指出是人们的大意导致了严重的火灾，根据文章第二、三段的首句可知，引起火灾的原因是气候变化和传统消防，排除B项。根据文章第三段第二句“as result, countries like Australia allow more fires to burn naturally”可知，C项错误。D选项文章没有提及，所以排除。故选择A项。 -
第8题：
单选题Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?AThere is no popularity that really counts.
BMany parents think that their children are challenging their authority.
CIt is not necessarily bad for a teenager to disagree with his or her classmates.
DMost teenagers are actually doing the same.
正确答案： B解析：
由文章最后两句话“Popularity will come—with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.”可知，成为真正的自己，不追赶潮流，这是最受欢迎的表现。所以A项说法不符合题意。 -
第9题：

BDriving is a skill too complicated for teenagers to learn.
CRestrictions should be imposed on teenagers applying to take driving lessons.
DThe licensing authorities are partly responsible for teenagers’ driving accidents.
正确答案： B解析：
细节推断题。A项“少年应花更多的时间学驾车”，而原文未提时间长短问题，故排除。B项“驾车对少年来说，太复杂，少年学不会”与文章不符，文章只提到驾车是一项复杂、技能要求高的工作，但不意味着少年学不会。C项“对申请上驾驶课的少年严加限制”与文不符。D项“颁照当局对少年驾车事故应负部分责任”与第三段末句“根本问题是负责颁照的成年人没认识到，驾车是一项多么复杂技能要求多么高的工作”吻合。 -

第一篇
About eight million school-age children are home alone after school.These are the hours when the number of violent crimes peaks and when youths are most likely to experiment with alcohol,tobacco,and drugs.Many older children take care of themselves after school for an hour or two until a parent comes home,and research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.
Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.
After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence because they offer activities to children and youths during their out-of-school time.In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours,after-school programs provide teens with opportunities to develop caring relationships with adults.Studies have found that high-quality relationships with parents and other adults,as well as good use of time,are very important for healthy development in youth.
After-school programs can also be used for teens who hang out at friends' houses and play basketball when a parent or other responsible adult is at home.The programs can also be helpful for formal after-school activities,including"drop-in"programs that are provided by organizations.
Despite the benefits of after-school programs,there are many reasons why some parents do not use them. Programs may be too expensive,of poor quality,or hard to join.Some older cililciren and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.F'arents may ieei uncertain about how much freedom is proper for children and youths who are beyond the traditional child care years.However,research supports the effectiveness of these programs in protecting middle school and high school youths from risk and harm.What can we infer from the passage?
A:Teenagers tend to stay at their friends' houses for a long time.
B:Relationships with adults may cause unhealthy development in youths.
C:The after-school programs can be used for many different kids.
D:Teenagers do not like the after-school programs.答案：C解析：依据是第二段：Studies have been done to find out what helps to reduce these kinds of risky behaviors among youths.One study of Chicago neighborhoods showed that after-school programs resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods.A选项中的“avoid(避免）”用在这里不准确，根据第二段内容，课后活动只能减少并没有说彻底避免危险行为及暴力行为的产生，因此不选A。根据第三段第一句话，很多活动会安排学生们在课后参加，所以他们并不是on their own（独自一人的），因此不选B。根据第三段第二句：...develop caring relationships with adults，可知并不是和同学之间，而是和成年人之间形成良好关系，因此不选C。
依据是最后一段的前两句话：...there are many reasons why some parents do not use them.Programs may be too expensive , of poor quality , or hard to join.根据最后一段第三句话：Some older children and young teens may refuse to attend programs that seem like they are just child care.可以判断出只是某些学生认为这样的活动类似于child care programs，因此不喜欢，但并不是家长们拒绝课后活动项目的原因。因此不选A。根据最后一段第四句话可知，这些活动并不是不给孩子们任何自由，故不选B项。C选项和前面第二段所讲的after-school pro-grams resulted in less violence even in poor neighborhoods矛盾，本身就不正确，更不是家长们拒绝课后活动的原因。
根据第四段第一句话可以得知，除了适合那种放学之后父母都不在家的孩子外，课后活动项目也同样适用于课后在朋友家闲混或打篮球，而家里会有一位父母或是其他成年人在场的情况，因此可以推断C是正确答案。文章中只说学生会在朋友家hang out，并没有说stay for a long time，因此不选A。根据第三段最后一句话：...high-quality relationships with parents and other adults...are very important for healthy development in youth.可以推断和父母亲以及成年人之间的良好关系对于年轻人的健康发展很重要，如果他们之间的关系不好，那么可能会对年轻人的健康发展不利，因此不选B。根据最后一段第三句话可以得知，只是某些学生不喜欢这样的课后活动，并非D选项中所说得那么绝对，因此不选D。
根据最后一段倒数第二句话可知，父母亲不确定到底可以给年龄较大已经过了托管年龄的孩子多大自由，可以判断父母亲并没打算让孩子们随心所欲，给他们彻底的自由，因此B选项的内容是不正确的。A选项的依据是第一段最后一句：...research suggests that some of these children are more at risk of poor grades and risky behaviors.C选项的依据是第三段第二句：In addition to helping youths make use of after-school hours ,...D选项的依据是第三段第一句：After-school programs can help to reduce crime and violence...
贯穿全文都在讲述after-school programs的必要性、作用、适合群体以及来自家长和学生的反应，因此最佳标题应该是After-school Programs。 -

CVery early in the morning is much more likely than those driving early in the evening.
DIn the middle of the evening is 10 times as likely as those driving early in the morning.
正确答案： A解析：
比较结构的找寻和判断。题干中的关键词为a sleep-related accident，从而定位到录音中的“a driver who is on the road between 4 a.m. and 6 a.m. is about 10 times as likely to have a sleep-related accident as someone who is driving…early in the evening”，表明清晨4到6点之间开车的人发生与睡眠相关车祸的可能性是……傍晚时候的十倍。由此可知，在清晨开车出现车祸的可能性比傍晚要高出很多。因此，选项C为正确答案。 -
