题目
Building a house costs quite a lot of money. Suppose you plan to build a house. Your first step will be to find a right piece of land. Your choice will depend on many different things. You will probably try to find a sunny place, with pleasant surroundings near shops and bus stops, not too far from your friends and the place where you work.
Next you will find a good builder, and together with the builder you will work out a plan. The builder will draw the plan. It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and other parts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets. The builder will work out how much money is needed to build your house. He will work out the cost of the wood, bricks, the glass, and everything else that must be used in building the house. Later on, when he starts to build, this estimate must be corrected and revised. His estimate is based on existing prices, but prices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when he makes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.
When the builder gives his estimate, you may wish to change your plan. (You may also wish to change your builder, if his estimate is too high! ) You may find that the house you wanted at first costs too much, or that you can spend a little more and add something to your plan. The builder's estimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.
The phrase "draw a plan" in this passage means _______

21.
答案：C
解析：文章主要围绕建房子的顺序步骤：选土地、找建筑师、做预算等来展开的，故“Planning a House”符合题意。A、B两项概括不全面，只是文章内容的一部分。
22.
答案：B
解析：根据文中“Your first step will be to find a right piece of land.”可知，建房子的第一件事是要找到一块合适的土地。故选B。
23.
答案：A
解析：根据“draw a plan”后面的“It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and other parts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets.”可知，建筑师绘制的平面图具体包括房间的数量、位置、尺寸以及窗户、门、电插座等。故A项符合题意。
24.
答案：C
解析：根据文中“His estimate is based on existing prices, but prices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when he makes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.”可知，预算是建立在现有价格上的，但是这些价格可能会变，而且在建筑师作出预算和建造房子之间可能会发生许多其他事情，故C项正确。
25.
答案：C
解析：根据文章最后一句“The builder's estimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.”可知，预算与计划是相互依赖的。故C项正确。

Going on a Diet
A typical person needs about 1,800 calories per day to stay alive. These calories keep your heart___ 1 ___and your lungs breathing. They keep your organs operating___ 2___ and,your brain running. They also keep your body warm. A person___ 3___weight because he or she consumes more calories per day than needed.

It's a good idea to wear firm-fitting clothes if you are on a diet.___15___clothing acts as a reminder of what you are trying to accomplish.6._________
A: work
B: start
C: change
D: balance答案：A解析：我们很清楚此处要选的是表示心跳的单词，常规理解的跳是jump，但是在英 文里表示心跳要用 heart beat，所以此处选beat的动名词形式beating。所以本题选C。
A项“快地”；B项“轻松地”；C项“温热地”；D项“正常地”。可见只有D项符合题意。故选D。
备选项中gain与weight搭配组成词组正是长胖了的意思。bring和take 不与weight直接搭配，carry weight的意思是重要，与题意不符。所以本题选A。
本题很明显要选有减少、降低意思的词汇。A项“加倍”；B项“降低”；C项 “修正”；D项“移动”。所以本题选B。
四个选项的意思分别为A项“原理”；B项“形式”；C项“方法”；D项“种类”。根据句意选A合适。
don't work for sb．表示对某人不起作用。根据后文也知道此处选work比较合适。此外题目给的一些备选项是及物动词，也可以作为排除的标准。
前文一直在用on diet这个词组，表示控制饮食，此处讲体重回升肯定要选和 on diet相反意思，on与off是一对反义词，go off the diet表示“停止节食”。故选C。
此题还是考察和weight的词语搭配。get不和weight搭配，meet和sup-port是够重、承受重量的意思，maintain weight是保持体重的意思。可见选D正确。
本题需要填入一个修饰“摄入”的副词。从词义上看，四个单词分别是A项 “部分地”；B项“希望地”；C项“明智地”；D项“实际地”。可见D选项正确。
本句很显然要选有“提高、增长”含义的词汇，因为增大运动量会多消耗卡路里，最终减重。四个选项中C项raise是“增长”的意思。D项grow也有“增长”的意思，但此句很明显需要的是及物动词，grow做及物动词的意思是“种植”，做不及物动词时才有“增长”的意思。所以此处不能选grow。故选C。
此处很明显要填入表示“形式”的单词。所以B、C选项不适合。ways表示方式，forms表示形式。form更强调客观物质的形式，方式，格式，例如：Ice, snow and steam are different forms of water.（冰、雪、蒸汽是水的不同形式。) way则强调事情解决的方法， form则不可以用来作为事情解决方法。例如：They are trying to find a way of settling the dispute.（他们正设法寻找解决争端的办法。）所以此处选forms，故D项正确。
此处主要考察和difference的搭配。make a difference是固定搭配，所以此处选C。
此处需要选择和stairs搭配组成“走楼梯”词组的单词。在汉语中我们常说爬楼梯，在英语里也用climb来表示。其他搭配都不符合题意。所以本题选B。
从后面的“Exercise can be a lot easier if there is someone to talk to.”可以看到此处要选的是同伴。所以选A, colleague一般表示同事，用于此处显然不适合。
你的目标是节食和减肥，自然要穿紧衣服。所以此处选A。 -
第4题：
Building a house costs quite a lot of money. Suppose you plan to build a house. Your first step will be to find a right piece of land. Your choice will depend on many different things. You will probably try to find a sunny place, with pleasant surroundings near shops and bus stops, not too far from your friends and the place where you work.
Next you will find a good builder, and together with the builder you will work out a plan. The builder will draw the plan. It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and other parts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets. The builder will work out how much money is needed to build your house. He will work out the cost of the wood, bricks, the glass, and everything else that must be used in building the house. Later on, when he starts to build, this estimate must be corrected and revised. His estimate is based on existing prices, but prices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when he makes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.
When the builder gives his estimate, you may wish to change your plan. (You may also wish to change your builder, if his estimate is too high! ) You may find that the house you wanted at first costs too much, or that you can spend a little more and add something to your plan. The builder's estimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.
When the builder starts to build a house, his estimate will have to be corrected and revised because _______.A.it is wrongly worked out by a workman
B.the future owner of the house thinks the estimate is so high that he cannot afford the building
C.the prices of building materials and the expenses of labor may be different from the original prices and expenses
D.estimates are usually mistaken in the beginning答案：C解析：本题属细节考查题。考查的是在盖房的施工中，最初的预算必须更正与修改的原因。短文第二段的倒数一、二句就有相对应的部分；随后，当他开始施工时，此预算必须更改与修正。他的预算的根据是当时的价格，而建筑材料与其他东西的价格在制定预算和开始施工这一阶段很可能会有变化。A项说的是“预算经常被施工者算错”，在短文中找不到依据；B项的“未来的房主认为预算太高他支付不起”在短文中也没有体现，D项的“在开始时预算往往是错的”与A项的错误一致． -

What is the relationship between the estimate and the plan?A.The plan depends on the estimate
B.The estimate depends on the plan
C.The plan has nothing to do with the estimate
D.The estimate and the plan depend on each other答案：D解析：本题考查的仍是对短文个别段落和中心意思的理解。短文第三段集中讲的就是和建房方案之间的关系。A项只说出了建房方案对预算的依赖关系；B项只说出预算对建房方案的依赖关系，而忽略它们相互作用的一面，因此都是片面的。而c项说的是建房方案与预算毫不相干，这与短文交代的事实背道而驰．故予以排除。 -

A:cut off
B:take down
C:remove
D:reduce答案：D解析：本句意思是：体内的热量可以使人的心脏跳动，所以选beating。 tick发出滴答声；激怒； run奔跑；kick踢。
本句意思：体内的热量可以使身体的器官正常运转。properly和appropriately都有“合 适的，适当的”之意，但properly可以表达“正常的，按照一定的规律”的意思。approximately近 似地，大约，大概，近乎effectively有效地。
本句意思：一个人增加了体重是因为他或她每天摄入的卡路里多于身体所需要的。 gain weight的意思是“体重增加”,put on weight才是“增加体重”的意思，故选C。
本句意思：唯一的减肥办法就是减少每天的卡路里的摄入量。reduce意思是“减少，降 低”，符合句意。cut off切割，剪断；take down记录，记下；remove移走，去除。
本句要表达节食的基本原则是上文所述的“减少每天卡路里的消耗量”。way和method 是“方式，方法”的意思；kind作为名词是“类别”的意思，不符合题意。答案为principle“原 则”。
本句意思：________ ，节食对大多数人的减肥并不奏效。unfortunately意思是“遗憾 地，不幸地”，符合句意。similarly相似地；though虽然；although虽然。
本句意思：他们体重下降了，就________节食，结果体重又上升了。go off意思是“离 开，消失，中断”，符合句意。go on继续；go after追逐，追求；go under沉没，失败。
本句意思：建立一个切实可行的节食和锻炼计划是_______体重的关键。maintain 意思是“保持，维持”，符合句意。get得到，获得；measure测量；reserve保留，储藏。
本句意思：你需要计算出你每天需要的和________摄入的卡路里。actually意思是 “实际上”，符合句意。preferably更好地；consistently一贯地；eventually终于，最后。
本句意思：你可以增加运动以 _________每天消耗的热量。raise意思是“增加”，符合 句意。go up上升；exceed超过，超越；grow生长。
本句意思：运动图表可以向你展示不同 _______的运动所要燃烧的热量。forms意思 是“形式，种类”，符合句意。ways方式，方法；factors因素；functions功能，职责。
本句意思：每天燃烧200或者500卡路里会是不同的。make符合句意，表示“导致不 同”。而have , do和give都无法与下文difference搭配构成“产生不同”之意，只有make符合 句意。
本句意思：你可以选择爬楼梯而不是乘电梯。climb stairs意思是“爬楼梯”，符合句意。 walk stairs走上/下楼梯；run stairs跑上/下楼梯。
本句意思：找个一起锻炼的 ________。partner意思是“伙伴，同伴”，符合句意。 colleague同事，同行；associate合作者；friend朋友。
本句承接上句提到的firm-fitting，要表达“紧身衣可以像一个提醒者一样提醒你要尽力 达到的目标”。tight意思是“紧身的，紧贴的”，符合句意。loose宽松的，不受约束的；casual随 便的，非正式的；formal正式的。 -

根据下列内容，回答191-195题。
Building a house costs quite a lot of money. Suppose you plan to build a house. Your first stepwill be to find a right piece of land. Your choice will depend on many different things. You willprobably try to find a sunny place, with pleasant surroundings near shops and bus stops, not toofar from your friends and the place where you work.
Next you will find a good builder, and together with the builder you will work out a plan. Thebuilder will draw the plan. It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and otherparts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets. The builder will workout how much money is needed to build your house. He will work out the cost of the wood, bricks,the glass, and everything else that must be used in building the house. Later on, when he starts tobuild, this estimate must be corrected and revised. His estimate is based on existing prices, butprices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when hemakes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.
When the builder gives his estimate, you may wish to change your plan.(You may also wish tochange your builder, if his estimate is too high! ) You may find that the house you wanted at firstcosts too much, or that you can spend a little more and add something to your plan. The builder'sestimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.
The best title of this passage isA.Building a House Costs Much Money
B.Estimate Is Important
C.Planning a House
D.Depend on the Builder答案：C解析：本题考查对整篇短文中心思想的理解能力。A项讲的是“盖一幢房子要花很多钱”，这是本文的第一句话，但它只讲了上述三段的盖房子要花很多钱这一项内容，所以其概括不准确。B项是说“预算是重要的”．同样犯了以偏概全的毛病。D项讲的是“依靠建筑工”，这与短文内容是相矛盾的，故此三者皆否定之。 -

It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and other parts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets. The builder will work out how much money is needed to build your house. He will work out the cost of the wood, bricks, the glass, and everything else that must be used in building the house. Later on, when he starts to build, this estimate must be corrected and revised. His estimate is based on existing prices, but prices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when he makes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.
When the builder gives his estimate, you may wish to change your plan. (You may also wish to change your builder, if his estimate is too high! ) You may find that the house you wanted at first costs too much, or that you can spend a little more and add something to your plan. The builder's estimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.
The best title of this passage is ________A.Building a House Costs Much Money
B.Estimate Is Important
C.Planning a House
D.Depend on the Builder答案：C解析：本题考查对整篇短文中心思想的理解。A项讲的是“盖一幢房子要花很多钱”，这是本文的第一句话，但它只讲了上述三段的盖房子要花很多钱这一项内容，所以其概括不准确。B项是说“预算是重要的”．同样犯了以偏概全的毛病。D项讲的是“依靠建筑工”，这与短文内容是相矛盾的．故此三者皆否定之。 -
第15题：
Building a house costs quite a lot of money. Suppose you plan to build a house. Your first step will be to find a right piece of land. Your choice will depend on many different things. You will probably try to find a sunny place, with pleasant surroundings near shops and bus stops, not too far from your friends and the place where you work.
Next you will find a good builder, and together with the builder you will work out a plan. The builder will draw the plan. It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and other parts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets. The builder will work out how much money is needed to build your house. He will work out the cost of the wood, bricks, the glass, and everything else that must be used in building the house. Later on, when he starts to build, this estimate must be corrected and revised. His estimate is based on existing prices, but prices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when he makes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.
When the builder gives his estimate, you may wish to change your plan. (You may also wish to change your builder, if his estimate is too high! ) You may find that the house you wanted at first costs too much, or that you can spend a little more and add something to your plan. The builder's estimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.
The first thing for a person to build a house is ______A.to get as much money as possible
B.to find a suitable piece of land
C.to work out a plan
D.to make an estimate答案：B解析：由短文首段的第三句“Your first stepwill betofind a right plece of land．”(你的第一步就是选好一块合适的地)可知此句正是该题答案的出处 -

Personality and Career
1.When you select your career,there's a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position.If you ignore your personality,it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay.There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job.
2. There are isolating（使孤立）jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy.Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.
3.Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them,but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life,you may need a job where the changes don't happen so often.Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.
4.There are people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer,while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day.Again,these are extremes and you'll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.
5.Some people prefer a smaller setting where you'll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly to being in a large building with a lot of people you won't know immediately.
6.Anyway,these are a great starting point for you.I've seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love.It may take you a little longer,but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.If you like a lot of human interaction,you may________.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I write this letter of complaint to you because I really can’t stand those pigeons in my corridor any more. My neighbor uncle Li raises many pigeons in the corridor that he shares with us and it’s very noisy with those pigeons flying in and out now and then. Moreover, it’s always so dirty and smelly with the droppings everywhere in the corridor that it’s a suffering to pass by the corridor.
I’ve communicated with uncle Li but he refused to move away his pigeons. So I’d like you to ask him to reconsider it. Because his pigeons have interfered with the life of the whole neighborhood.
Yours sincerely,
