解析:

雖說(shuō)“無(wú)酒不成席”,同時(shí),酒也是“穿腸毒藥”,過(guò)量飲酒帶來(lái)的危害也不少。每年不知有多少人因喝酒造成了意外,多少人把命斷送在這酩酊酣熱之際,多少健康消失在瓶罐之間。忽略了酒精的危害,我們正一步步遠(yuǎn)離健康。

36.B.common在這里表示“不稀有,到處可見”。common側(cè)重“普通”,表示“時(shí)時(shí)發(fā)生,人所共有”,其反義詞為rare。如:a common saying (俗話),common knowledge / sense常識(shí)。normal指“正常的”、“正規(guī)的”、“常態(tài)的”, 如: the normal temperature of the human body.;ideal“理想的;完美的;空想的;想象中的 ” This dictionary is ideal — it’s exactly what I needed. 這本詞典很理想,正是我所需要的。 ideal plans for making money 賺錢的空想計(jì)劃 ;regular 指“有規(guī)律的”、“正規(guī)的”、“定期的”, 如: He kept regular hours. 他過(guò)著有規(guī)律的生活。本題易誤選A。

37.D.Unfortunately,承上關(guān)系,表反意。Accidently“偶然地, 意外地”;Fortunately“幸運(yùn)地”;Excitedly“興奮地”,均不合語(yǔ)境。

38.A.relieve“減少;減輕”。其它為增加等意,不合語(yǔ)境。

39.C.mistakenly “錯(cuò)誤地, 曲解地”。 本題易誤選A。

40.D.escape from“逃避”;cancel“放棄、取消”為及物動(dòng)詞,不與from連用。

41.B.solution“解答, 解決辦法”,其它不和句意。本題易誤選AC。

42.A.However“然而”so“因此”,用作連詞表示結(jié)果,用法與therefore相似;besides“另外,除此以外”從句子意思,只有A合適

43.B.a(chǎn) heavy drinker“能喝的主”;a social drinker “酒量一般的人”;a addicted drinker“喝酒上了癮的人”;a light drinker“不太會(huì)喝酒的人”。 本題易誤選C。

44.C。run the risk of doing…“冒險(xiǎn)做…”。

45.A.eventually“最后, 終于”,可表示由某種原因?qū)е碌慕Y(jié)果。本題易誤選B。

46.B.disastrously“悲劇地、災(zāi)難性地”;extensively“廣闊地”。此題不易選。

47.C.excessive(overfull),其它不和句意。本題易誤選B。

48.A.cause sb./sth. to do…。make和have后不定式省略to;protect與from連用。本題易誤選BC。

49.D 。above all;after all;first of all;all in all用法辨析:本題易誤選A。

①above all意為“最重要的是;尤其是”,強(qiáng)調(diào)要引起特別注意。如:

We must work,and above all we must believe in ourselves. 我們必須工作,尤其重要的是我們必須樹立信心。 ②after all意為“畢竟;終究;到底”,表示讓步。如: He is certain to come. After all, he's already accepted the invitation. 他肯定來(lái),他畢竟已接受了邀請(qǐng)。 ③ first of all意為“首先”,強(qiáng)調(diào)次序。如: First of all, let me introduce myself to you. 首先,讓我作個(gè)自我介紹。 All in all “完全地”

50.C.cut out“戒掉”=get rid of。run out“用完”;leave out“省去, 遺漏, 不考慮”;carry out“完成, 實(shí)現(xiàn), 貫徹, 執(zhí)行”,均不合題義。本題易誤選B。

51.C.effect“結(jié)果”,如:Alcoholic drink can have a bad effect on your body. 含酒精的飲料會(huì)對(duì)你身體有很壞的影響。;cause和reason表示原因cause指“產(chǎn)生結(jié)果的原因” 或“使某事發(fā)生的原因”, 如: Carelessness is the cause of his failure. 粗心是他失敗的原因。

52.A。本段開頭有提示。

53.C.根據(jù)前面的vision“視野”可判斷選judgement。

54.D.fail to do sth.“未能做某事”。 manage to設(shè)法做到某事;try to盡力做某事;refuse to拒絕做某事,均不合語(yǔ)境。

55.D.本句意思為“事故就是這樣發(fā)生的。” how  conj.  (用于間接陳述中,意義和作用與that相仿) 如:This is how we became acquainted. 我們就是這樣認(rèn)識(shí)的。本題易誤選B。

The peoples of the Scandinavian countries share a lot in common for geographical reasons. But there are more of differences than similarities between them in all ways,including their drinking customs.

A superficial① observer might think that no one in Norway drinks wine. Meals eaten in restaurants or at home are usually washed down with tea, coffee or milk. Occasionally however,pale or dark ale② is drunk. It can be ordered only in restaurants, where it is served only with food.

Excellent quality beers are made in Jutland and consumption is high. After beer, brandy is the favorite drink. Aalborg schnapps made from corn and potatoes, is famous for its high alcoholic content. For the Danes, brandy is also an aperitif③ and is often drunk before meals. For a foreigner, the practice of surrounding toasts here can be uncomfortable. If he accepts one toast then he will have to accept all others, and it is difficult to drink six or seven glasses of brandy unless one is used to it. Ladies are fortunately excluded from these rounds and they drink only a grape juice with almost no alcoholic content.

It is milk instead of liquor that is the principal④ Finnish table drink. More milk is drunk by the Finnish people than in any other nation. In Finland the sale of alcohol is a state behavior and a check is kept on consumption by recording purchases on special card issued to all customers.

As there is a difference between Swedish cooking in the south and that in the north because of the difference in soil and climate, their drinking habits are also different. In the north alcoholic beverages⑤ are considered a necessity because they keep out the cold. While in the south people have milder drinks. But generally speaking, too much drinking is rare in Sweden, partly because it is against the law.

Sale of spirits is controlled, the Swedes drink much coffee and tea. Many people still prefer the old-fashioned coffee served in large cups with cakes. Tea is so popular in Sweden that it has been called the Swedish national drink.

Notes:

① superficial  adj.  表面上的

② ale  n.  麥牙酒

③ aperitif  n.  開胃酒

④ principal  adj.  最重要的;主要的

⑤ alcoholic beverage   n.  烈酒

The legal age for drinking alcohol in the Unite States is twenty-one. Underage drinking is a crime but also a common part of college social life. This week in our Foreign Student Series, we look at alcohol rules at American colleges and universities. These rules differ from school to school, but many schools have been moving to strengthen their rules.
The United States has more than 17,000,000 students in higher education. Each year, 1700 of them die from alcohol-related road crashes and other injuries. 600,000 more are injured while under the influence of alcohol. And almost 700,000 are attacked by another drunken.
One behavior that college officials are trying to prevent is too much drink. Some researchers have found that students who think binge drinking(狂飲) is normal often think extremely how much other students really drink. A person can die of alcohol poisoning. At Oklahoma University, a nineteen-year-old student died from drinking heavily at a party in 2005.
Now alcohol is banned from all sorority houses(聯(lián)誼會(huì)會(huì)館) and university housing. Student organizations can serve alcohol at events but only on Friday and Saturday nights. Other new requirements include an alcohol education program that first-year students take online.
The rules govern behavior on campus(大學(xué)校園)and off. With a first violation(違犯),students pay seventy-five dollars and their parents are told. They must also take an alcohol education class. For a second “strike”, they have to pay one hundred fifty dollars. A third strike means that they have to be suspended school for at least one semester.
Since 2005,363 students have had a first strike. 30 have had a second strike-and only one hasn’t allowed to go to school for one semester. The president at Oklahoma tells us the aim is not just to punish but to change the behavior and culture at the university.
【小題1】The first paragraph mainly tells us that            .

A.the legal age at the lowest for drinking alcohol is 21
B.many colleges consider drinking alcohol to be a crime
C.drinking alcohol is a necessary and popular campus culture
D.American colleges and universities have their own alcohol rules
【小題2】Every year the number of the students who die or are injured because of alcohol in the USA adds up to about        .
A.17,000,000B.1,301,700C.601,700D.1300,000
【小題3】If a student has a third strike, he or she should            .
A.have to stop going to school for a time.
B.be removed to another school
C.be locked at home for a period.
D.be forced to leave school forever.
【小題4】Which of the following is TRUE?
A.College students are not allowed to drink alcohol at any time.
B.If students take an alcohol program online, they can drink alcohol.
C.Students having a first strike only receive punishment of fine.
D.Students with a second strike pay twice as much as students with a first strike.
【小題5】From the last paragraph we can infer that         .
A.a(chǎn)lcohol rules have no effect on college students
B.drinking alcohol remains a serious problem
C.a(chǎn)lcohol rules aim to change the behavior and culture at the university
D.the number of students drinking alcohol is dropping in one way

PART FOUR WRITING

SECTION A

Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram / Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage.

Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer

Dieters are often advised to stop drinking alcohol to avoid the extra calories hidden in a glass of wine or a favorite cocktail. But new research suggests that women who regularly consume fair amounts of alcohol are less likely to gain weight than nondrinkers and are at lower risk for fat.

The findings are based on a study of 19,220 United States women aged 39 or older who, at the start of the study, fell into the “normal weight” category based on their body mass index (身體質(zhì)量指數(shù)). Researchers tracked the women’s drinking habits over 13 years. About 60 percent of the women were light or regular drinkers, while about 40 percent reported drinking no alcohol.

Over the course of the study, 41 percent of the women became overweight or fat. Although alcohol is packed with calories (about 150 in a six-ounce glass of wine), the nondrinkers in the study actually gained more weight over time: nine pounds, on average, compared with an average gain of about three pounds among regular mild drinkers. The risk of becoming overweight was almost 30 percent lower for women who consumed one or two alcohol drinks a day, compared with nondrinkers.

The findings are certain to be confusing for women who continue to receive conflicting messages about the health benefits and risks of alcohol. Although mild drinking is associated with better heart health, regular drinking also increases breast cancer risk.

The trend toward less weight gain among drinkers doesn’t appear to hold true for men. A 2003 study of British men showed that regular drinkers gained more weight than nondrinkers. There may be differences in how men and women metabolize(代謝) alcohol. Metabolic studies show that after men drink alcohol, they experience little if any metabolic change. But alcohol appears to slightly speed up a woman’s metabolism.

The findings don’t mean women should rush to drink alcohol to lose weight. Other research shows that once a person is already overweight, her alcohol metabolism is more efficient, and so an overweight woman may gain more weight from alcohol than a lean woman. The data do, however, suggest that for many women facing weight problems, the extra calories are probably not coming from alcoholic drinks.

Title: Women Who Drink Gain     71    

Ⅰ. Widely known advice

Ⅱ. 72    subjects: 19,220 United States women aged 39 or older of    73

●compared with nondrinkers, women who consumed one or two alcohol drinks a day almost 30 percent    76   to become fat;

●women being    77   men in metabolism

Ⅳ. 78   fact

Mild drinking may    79   to better heart health, but it also increases breast cancer risk.

Ⅴ. Suggestion and conclusion

●Women should not rush to drink alcohol to lose weight.

●For women with weight problems, alcoholic drinks are probably not the 80 of extra calories.

As AH1N1 flu continues to spread, experts from the World Health

Organization are calling for everyone to practice smart flu prevention

techniques. Besides washing your hands and getting enough sleep,

here are the other 7 ways to keep your body strong and your immune

(免疫) system ready to fight infection.

Avoid Contact with Sick People

Flu virus is spread when particles (微粒) blown into the air through a cough or sneeze reach someone else’s nose. So if you’re coughing or sneezing, cover your mouth and then wash your hands, and if you have to be around someone who is sick, try to stay a few feet away from them and avoid physical contact.

Eat Immune – Boosting Foods

Keeping your body strong and ready to fight infection is important in flu prevention. Fatty foods can make you feel lazy, and make your immune system working in an inactive and compromised way. So stick with wholes grains, colorful vegetables, and vitamin – rich fruits.

Avoid Alcohol

In addition to being a mood calm and pleasant, alcohol is an immune restriction that can actually decrease your resistance to virus infections like AH1N1flu. So avoid alcohol to keep your immune system strong.

Drink Enough Water

Drink 8 – 10 glasses of water each day to wash out poisonous things from your system and maintain system in a good state,

Keep Physically Active

Adequate exercise – for example walking for 30 to 40 minutes 3 or 4 times a week – supports the immune system by increasing circulation, speeding the body’s oxygen – taking – in, taking away poisonous things through sweat, and releasing tension and stress. So get moving!

Be Careful of Surfaces

This is as much a mindfulness exercise as anything else. Be aware of what public surfaces you touch, when you’ve shaken hands with someone, or when you’re using something like a pen that others have recently used – and don’t touch your face until you’ve had a chance to wash your hands.

Know When to Get Help

AH1N1 flu can look like regular flu, so don’t feel like you necessarily are infected if you’re exhibiting flu – like symptoms. But do consult your doctor if your symptoms are severe.

 

 

64.Which of the following pictures is talked about in the passage?       

 

65.How can fatty foods affect a person?           .

A.They cause human’s immune system inactive

B.They help to keep one’s body strong

C.They are good for fighting infection

D.They are favorable for a calm mood

66.Drinking water and having enough exercise play the similar role in        .

A.increasing circulation                                     B.taking in  more oxygen

C.cleaning your system                                     D.reducing your pressure

67.What does the author strongly suggest in the last paragraph?         

A.Don’t touch your face!                                  B.Avoid using others’ pen!

C.Don’t fear getting infected!                         D.See a doctor if you’re seriously ill!
