week”可知,此处应用现在完成时。故选C。3.C考查动词的时态。句意:——你还在那家化工厂工作吗?——没有,我四年前就离开了。“since+延续性动词的一般过去时”表示从动作终止时算起。since I worked there意为“从我不在那工作起”。4.C考查动词的时态。由“was starting to take a bath”和上一句中的时态可知,“画完”这一动作发生在过去的过去,故用过去完成时。5.C考查动词的时态和倒装。由Since then可知,此句应用现在完成时。又因为become为短暂性动词,不能用于完成时态,故排除选项A、B。此外,后一分句中否定词never位于句首,应用倒装句。故选C。6.B考查非谓语动词。“only to do”结构作结果状语常表示出乎意料的结果,此处tell为及物动词,且与其逻辑主语“The old lady”之间存在动宾关系,故此处应用动词不定式的被动形式。7.D考查非谓语动词。此处为不定式作定语,live为不及物动词,需要在其后加上介词in,与cave构成逻辑上的动宾关系,A、C两项后面缺少介词in。8.A考查非谓语动词。句意:年轻的女士们喜欢装扮的目的是能被别人注意到。分析句子结构可知空格处所填内容在句中作目的状语,因此用动词不定式形式,且表示被动,故用to be noticed。9.C考查分词作伴随状语。由时间状语“at that time”可知,此处表示这个学生那时正在被表扬,故用动词-ing形式的被动式。10.B第一空为过去分词作表语,remain为系动词,此处表示状态。第二空为动词-ing形式作状语,其逻辑主语为主句的主语。11.A考查非谓语动词。分词作状语,其逻辑主语与句子的主语一致,根据题干中的“already”可知此处要用动词-ing形式的完成式。12.B考查情态动词表推测的用法。表示“过去可能做了某事”应用might/may have done sth.,can表推测时多用于否定句和疑问句。故此题选B。13.D考查情态动词。shall用于第二、第三人称的陈述句中,表示允诺、警告、命令或威胁;用于第一、第三人称,在条约、规定、法令等文件中表示义务或规定,意为“应该,必须”等。结合语境可知此处属于后一种用法,故选D项。14.B考查情态动词。句意:如果你不想参加他的聚会,你就没有必要接受他的邀请。can’t不能,表能力;needn’t没有必要;mustn’t禁止;shan’t将不会,A、C、D三项都不符合句意,只有B项符合句意,故选B。15.B考查虚拟语气。从句子中的“if my deskmate hadn’t given me a call to remind me”可知,此处是对过去情况的虚拟,主句应用should/would/could/might have done sth.结构,从选项看只有B项合适。I wouldn’t have是I wouldn’t have attended the party的省略形式。Ⅱ.阅读理解(对应学生用书第103页)【社会文化类】People have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behavior are formed.It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not,or why one is cooperative and another is competitive.Social scientists are of course extremely interested in these types of questions.They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behavior.There are no clear answers yet,but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have developed.As one might expect,the two approaches are very different from each other,and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory.The controversy is often conveniently referred to as“nature”and“nurture”.Those who support the“nature”side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological factors.That our environment has little,if anything,to do with our abilities,characteristics and behavior is central to this theory.Taken to an extreme,this theory states that our behavior is predetermined to such a great degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts(本能).Proponents of the“nurture”theory,or,as they are often called,behaviorists,claim that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act.A behaviorist,B.F.Skinner,sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings.The behaviorists’view of the human being is quite mechanistic.They state that,like machines,humans respond to environmental stimuli(刺激)as the basis of their behavior.Socially and politically,the consequences of these two theories are far-reaching.In the US,for example,blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests.This leads some“nature”proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically lower in status than whites.Behaviorists,on the contrary,say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy,and that,as a result,they do not develop the same responses that whites do.Neither of these theories can yet fully explain human behavior.In fact,it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes and that the controversy will continue for a long time is certain.1.This passage is mainly concerned with.A.the relation between personality and behavior B.the relation between behavior and environment C.different accounts of patterns of human behavior D.different theories of the formation of human behavior 2.The underlined word“proponents”in Paragraph 2 means.A.creators B.advisors C.advocates D.judges 3.In Paragraph 5,the author mainly writes about.A.the considerable influence of the two theories B.differences between the blacks and whites C.racial discrimination in the United States D.different responds to intelligence tests 4.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?()A.To call our attention to the changes of human behavior.B.To urge scientists to do more research in social science.C.To give us a detailed explanation of human behavior.D.To present an argument in the field of social science.语篇解读:本文主要讨论了人类个性和行为的形成原因,介绍了与之有关的两种不同的理论。答案及剖析:1.D主旨大意题。根据文章大意可知,文章主要论述的是人类行为形成的不同理论。故选D项。2.C猜测词义题。advocate意为“主张、拥护者”;creator意为“创造者”;advisor意为“顾问”;judge意为“裁判员”。根据第二段第四句可知,这两种方法大相径庭,每种理论的辩护者都各执一词。所以画线部分指“辩护者、拥护者”。故答案为C项。3.A段落大意题。根据第五段第一句可知,这两种理论所包含的社会意义和政治意义是深远的,本段围绕该主题句展开论述。所以本段主要讲述两种理论的重大影响,故答案为A项。4.D目的意图题。根据第一段和第二段可知,“人的性格和行为特征是怎样形成的”是社会科学领域的问题,文章从两种不同的思想流派进行论述。故答案为D项。【疑难词汇解读】1.cooperative adj.乐于协助的;合作的,协作的The teacher thanked them for being cooperative.老师感谢他们的通力合作。2.controversy n.争议;争论The new plan has caused an enormous amount of controversy.新的计划引起了很多争论。【长难句子分析】,,,相反地,行为主义者分辩说,得分的区别在于如下事实:黑人被剥夺了许多白人所能享受的受教育权利和其他环境优势,而且正因如此,他们也难以培养出与白人同样的反应。Ⅲ.任务型读写(对应学生用书第104页)(2012安庆一中三模)阅读下面短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词。In the professional world,oral communication skills in the workplace,which are the art of using speech to convey information,thoughts and feeling to others,are important for the success of any organizations.The 21st century has been considered to be an era of communication.The way we convey our thoughts is of great importance in building relationships.In the workplace,there are employees of diverse cultural and educational backgrounds.This makes team working on a difficult task,but with a clear understanding of the task to be achieved,all members work towards the same goal.Misunderstandings,conflicts and differences in opinions are easily managed when there is a clear flow of communication between team members.With proper communication,a close relationship and trust build among the employees,therefore promoting excellent working conditions.An atmosphere of support and cooperation is promoted by properly conveying expectations of the management team to the employees and vice versa(反之亦然).Therefore,developing oral communication skills is important to success in life ahead.How to improve oral communication?In the business world,individuals are expected to be confident about their beliefs and ideas.Therefore,they must include words like“in my opinion”,“as far as I know”.While improving skills on oral communication,people in a workplace must learn the art of listening.In addition,one must also have a positive body language during conversations.A person with a smiling face and positive attitude can raise the spirits of everyone around him.When we’re talking to someone,we must give the other person an opportunity to talk as it improves our listening ability.Communication is an art and it can be improved by working on it constantly.Since it is not an overnight work,one needs to learn it by observing people who are good at it.Title。
