One of Britain’s bravest women told yesterday how she helped to catch suspected police killer David Bieber -- and was thanked1flowers by the police. It was also said that she could2 a share of up to ￡30,000 reward money.
Vicki Brown, 30, played a very important role in3the nationwide manhunt. Vicki, who has worked at the Royal Hotel for four years, told of her terrible 4when she had to steal into Bieber’s bedroom and to watch him5. Then she waited alone for three6while armed police prepared to 7the building.
She said, "I was very nervous. But when I opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policemen
8 in the car park I was so glad they were there.”
The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious of the guest who 9in at 3 pm the day before New Year’s Eve with little luggage and 10sunglasses and a hat pulled down over his11. She said, "He didn’t seem to want to talk too much and make any eye contact." Vicki, the only employee on duty, called her boss Margaret, 64, and husband Stan McKale, 65, who phoned the police at 11 pm.
Officers from Northumbria Police called Vicki at the hotel in Dunston, Gateshead, at about 11:30 pm to make sure that this was the12man. Then they kept in touch by phoning Vicki
1315 minutes.
"It was about ten past two in the morning14the phone went again and a policeman said ‘Would you go and make yourself known to the armed officers outside?’. My heart missed a15."
Vicki quietly showed eight armed officers16passages and staircases to the top floor room and17over the key.
"I realized that my bedroom window overlooks that part of the hotel, so I went to watch. I could not see into the man’s room,18I could see the passage. The police kept19at the man to come out with his hands showing. Then suddenly he 20have come out because they shouted for him to lie down while he was handcuffed (帶上手銬)。

1.本題測試詞義搭配。本句譯文：領(lǐng)導(dǎo)藝術(shù)的一個最重要的因素是吸引力。這不是指普通意義上的吸引力，因為那是一種我們無法控制的天生的品質(zhì)。beyond one’s control意為“無法控制，在控制力之外”; be in control of意為“持有對……的控制力”;under control意為“在……的控制之下，得到控制”。
2.本題測試同義詞辨析。本句譯文：然而，領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者必須是一塊磁石，一位能把他人吸引到身邊的中心人物。draw to/towards意為“吸引”;drag意為“拖拽，(工作、時間)緩慢而協(xié)調(diào)地進(jìn)行”;haul意為“用力拖拉”;unite意為“聯(lián)合”。
3.本題測試慣用搭配。考查詞組depend on。
4.本題測試詞義搭配。本句譯文：在緊閉的門后施展權(quán)威，體現(xiàn)不出領(lǐng)導(dǎo)能力。exercise authority(use authority)意為“行使權(quán)威”;recognize意為“認(rèn)出”;respect意為“尊敬”。
5.本題測試結(jié)構(gòu)搭配。where引導(dǎo)一個地點狀語從句，其他選項不符合句意。
6.本題測試邏輯性詞義搭配。本句譯文：他必須是一個傳奇人物、奇聞軼事(不管是真是假)的中心主題、一個重要角色。subject意為“主題”。
7.本題測試邏輯性詞義搭配。or表示前后詞的意思并列，在這應(yīng)互為反義詞，所以8.本題測試慣用搭配。本句譯文：最簡單的策略之一是在眾人期盼的場合下缺席，這足以引起謠言，談?wù)摰降资鞘裁粗匾氖掳杨I(lǐng)導(dǎo)耽擱住了。on the occasion意為“在……場合下/情況下”。
9.本題測試邏輯性詞義搭配。譯文：當(dāng)某領(lǐng)導(dǎo)被大家……的時候，他缺席了，這足以引起謠言，揣測他耽擱的原因。所以是領(lǐng)導(dǎo)“該出席沒出席”，只能選expect“期待，盼望”。refuse意為“拒絕”，suspect意為“懷疑”，expel意為“驅(qū)逐”，三個選項均不合題意。
10.本題測試句法分析。后面的定語從句修飾the vital business，而從句中缺少一個主語，因此只能選擇which。when和where分別表示時間和地點，作狀語不能作主語;what不能引導(dǎo)定語從句。
11.本題測試慣用搭配。本句譯文：為了補償這次缺席的影響，他在最意想不到的場合出現(xiàn)，引起另一輪關(guān)于他的興趣的猜測，人們會認(rèn)為他在其他人認(rèn)為瑣碎的事情上顯示出興趣。make up for意為“補償;彌補”。
12.本題測試慣用搭配。display/show/express interest in sth. 意為“對……顯示出興趣”。
13.]本題測試詞義搭配。view sth.as(regard sth.as)意為“把……認(rèn)為/當(dāng)作……”。其他選項在搭配上均錯。注意錯誤選項B，當(dāng)變成think of…as時與regard…as同義。
14.]本題測試邏輯性詞義搭配。相關(guān)譯文：“此領(lǐng)導(dǎo)具有激發(fā)他人好奇心的天賦，但不愿談?wù)撟约�。他的興趣顯然在別人身上：他向下屬提問，鼓勵他們交談，然后記住所有的相關(guān)信息�！眎nspire意為“激勵”。curiosity意為“好奇心”，possess意為“擁有”，decrease意為“減少”，均不符合題意。urge意為“力勸;驅(qū)策”，與上文的語氣不符。
15.本題測試邏輯性詞義搭配。由上文“這位領(lǐng)導(dǎo)不愿意談?wù)撟约骸狈治龀龃司錇椤八呐d趣在他人”。只有plainly意為“顯然地”為正確答案。scarcely意為“簡直不/一定不”;obscurely意為“模糊地，含糊難解地”。
16.本題測試結(jié)構(gòu)搭配。在定語從句中，先行詞為特殊詞時，后面只能用關(guān)系代詞that引導(dǎo)，不用which，所以that為正確答案。
17.]本題測試結(jié)構(gòu)搭配。相關(guān)譯文：直到他在頭腦中已經(jīng)整理好了在場每個人的微型檔案后才會離開人群，確信知道下次再遇到他們時要講什么。
18.本題測試邏輯性詞義搭配。前面已提到“他記住所有他人的相關(guān)信息”，所以選與之對應(yīng)的everyone，“頭腦中形成在場每個人的微型檔案”。
19.本題測試結(jié)構(gòu)搭配。D正確，what是兼為先行詞的關(guān)系代詞，等于the thing(s) which。
20.本題測試結(jié)構(gòu)搭配。本句譯文：他骨子里是一位具有外向性格的人，但是他寧愿多聽取他人的想法，而不是自己喋喋不休�！皐ould rather…than…”意為“寧可……也不……”。

Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasn't easy at all. Before 1750, the idea of skating didn't exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin's work was making musical instruments. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of imagination, ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.
　　One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball. He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.
　　Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.
　　On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin's grand entrance for a long time!
