    B

    D

    still as


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    句意:他非常害羞,连向陌生人问时间都不会,更不用说面对着满屋的人讲话了。still less更不用说,相当于much less,用于否定句。much more更不用说,相当于still more,意思虽与still less一样,但用于肯定句。much as表示“尽管;虽然”,后接句子。无still as词组。本句中too…to句型表示否定,故选still less。

    正确答案: B

  • 第16题:

    问答题
    Test 13  We are now living in a society of severe competition. Students need to compete for better school; companies compete for better products and more customers. Many people neglect the role of cooperation. What do you think of the relationship between competition and cooperation?  Write on ANSWER SHEET TWO a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:COMPETITION AND COOPERATION  You are to write in three parts.  In the first part, state specifically what your idea is.  In the second part, provide one or two reasons to support your idea OR describe your idea.  In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.  Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.

    正确答案:
    【参考范文】
    It is often believed that competition and cooperation are in opposition to each other. We are now living in a society of severe competition. Students need to compete for better schools; companies have to compete for better products and more customers. And there is constant competition for jobs, fame, and wealth and so on. Cooperation is often neglected by many people. Here I would like to say that both competition and cooperation play an important role in social progress.
    Competition is the impetus of the constant development of the human society. The pressure of competition can force people to try their best and give people a sense of the pursuit of excellence. Without competition people would be satisfied with their present condition and society would not advance. A strong desire to succeed and do better than others inspires us to work harder. However, we also need to know the importance of cooperating with others. It’s unimaginable for an individual to live without society. In many cases, people need to cooperate with each other to overcome difficulties. Mere competition may lead to failure.
    To succeed in life, we must learn that both com- petition and cooperation are indispensable. Competition will make us always be active to create while cooperation gives us the possibility of working together to overcome obstacles.

    A

    It will maintain a close relationship with Europe.

    B

    It will support the idea of a central European government.

    C

    It will keep a distance from Europe.

    D

    They will support each other.


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    在谈到与欧洲的关系时,Mrs. Faulkes提到we will maintain close links with Europe in the future。所以她认为未来英国仍会与欧洲其他国家保持亲密关系。
    【录音原文】
    M: In our radio car we have Geraldine Faulkes who is on the campaign trail. Now, Mrs. Faulkes, it’s only three weeks till the general election. How’s the campaign going?
    W: Thank you, John. I’m fully confident that the Conservative Party will win this general election and that the people of this country will welcome five more years of good Conservative Government. Our economy is growing stronger and now is the right time for income tax cuts.
    M: But you said you would lower taxes five years ago, but you didn’t, did you?
    W: Our economic policies over the last five years have given us one of the strongest economies in Europe with some of the lowest rates. We said that we were going to lower interest rates at the last election and we have delivered our promise.
    M: But I don’t think low interest rates are the same as lowering taxes. Why should we believe you on your promise to lower taxes this time?
    W: The economy of the country is now very healthy, and now is the time.
    M: Five years ago you said you were going to spend more money on healthcare, and you didn’t. Now we have fewer hospitals and waiting lists are enormous. Hospitals are also understaffed.
    W: In the last five years we have spent more on the healthcare system than the Labour government spent in their last 10 years.
    M: But the Labour Party was in power over 12 years ago and with inflation and the higher cost of living you can’t really compare spending 12 years ago and today, can you? Then what would a new Conservative government do to tackle unemployment?
    W: Unemployment has been falling steadily over the last five years thanks to our training schemes.
    M: But those schemes just keep young people out of the unemployment statistics for a few months. Very few of them get jobs in the end. In fact, all you did was to play with the statistics to make it look as if unemployment was falling. Well, what about more action on poverty?
    W: By reducing government handouts we have encouraged people to find themselves jobs. We believe in making people independent. There are jobs if they look hard enough.
    M: And what about your party’s attitude to Europe? There’s been a lot of argument in the party recently about whether we should have closer links with Europe.
    W: There’re no divisions within the Conservative Party. We’re united in our belief that we will maintain close links with Europe in the future. But a close relationship with Europe doesn’t mean that we will hand over government of this country to a central European government.
    M: We’ve run out of time. Thank you very much, Mrs. Faulkes.
    W: Thank you.
    Questions 1 to 5 are based on the conversation.
    Q1. How does Mrs. Faulkes respond to John’s query on the government’s not lowering taxes five years ago?
    Q2. What does John say about Britain’s healthcare?
    Q3. What does John think of the Conservative government’s training schemes in the last five years?
    Q4. What is the solution to poverty according to Mrs. Faulkes?
    Q5. What kind of relationship does Mrs. Faulkes think Britain will maintain with Europe?

  • 第23题:

    填空题
    ____

    正确答案: L
