（1) Family” is of course an elastic word. But when British people say that their society is based on family life, they are thinking of “family” in its narrow, peculiarly European sense of mother, father and children living together alone in their own house as an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and independent family—hence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life.
For both the man and the woman, marriage means leaving one’s parents and starting one’s own life. The man’s first duty will then be to his wife, and the wife’s to her husband. He will be entirely responsible for her financial support, and she for the running of the new home. Their children will be their common responsibility and theirs alone. Neither the wife’s parents nor the husband’s, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts or uncles, have any right to interfere with them—they are their own masters.
Readers of novels like Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times marriage among wealthy families were arranged by the girl’s parents, that is, it was the parents’ duty to find a suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillful encouragement to lead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until that time, the girl was protected and maintained in the parents’ home, and the financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in their giving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry. It is very different today. Most girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially independent before their marriage. This has had two results. A girl chooses her own husband, and she gets no dowry.
1. What does the author mean by “Family is of course an elastic word”?
A.Different families have different ways of life. B. Different definitions could be given to the word.
C. Different nations have different families. D.Different times produce different families.
2. For an English family, the husband’s duty is ____.
A. supporting the family while the wife is financial? B. defending the family while the wife is running the home
C. financial while the wife is running the home? D. independent while the wife is dependent
3. Everything is decided in a family ____.
A.by the couple B. with the help of their parents
C. by brothers and sisters D. with the help of aunts and uncles
4. What is true concerning the book Pride and Prejudice?
A. It is the best book on marriage.
B. It is a handbook of marriage.
C. It gives quite some idea of English social life in the past.
D. It provides a lot of information of former?time wealthy families.
5.With regard to marriage in Britain, present-day girls differ from former time girls in ____.
A. the right marry B. more parental support C. choosing husbands D. social position?
1.【答案】B。
【解析】此句主要是考察对elastic这个单词的理解，elastic的意思是“有弹性的，可伸缩的 ，不是固定不变的”，整句话的意思是“家庭当然不是一个固定不变的概念”，在这一段的后面也写了不同时期的家庭和婚姻状况，从此可知“family”一词的含义也是不同的。?
2.【答案】C
【解析】从文中可找出关键句 “The man’s first duty...”和“responsible for her financial support”，此句意思是 “男人应是女人的财政支柱”，financial的意思是“财政的，金融的”。注意 “responsible for her...running of the new home”是关键句。?
3.【答案】A
【解析】由第一段最后一句“neither...nor...nor...have any right to interfere with them.”此处的“them”是指夫妻俩，neither...nor...是否定形式，即说……都没有权力干 涉夫妻俩的事情，——他们是自己的主人，故此题的正确答案是A。?
4.【答案】C
【解析】分析本文第二段可知，《傲慢与偏见》这本书中讲述了当时的婚姻状况，当时有钱人 之间的婚姻都是由女方父母做主，并且父母给新婚夫妇一些钱做嫁妆之后就不再管他们的经济问题，这是当时英国社会生活的一个方面。?
5.【答案】D
【解析】从第二段中开始部分可知过去的女孩的社会地位，从后半部分可知现在的女孩的社会 地位比以前有很大提高，表现在结婚前就可以自己在经济上独立，可以自己选择丈夫，可以不要dowry(嫁妆)，这些方面都属于社会地位方面。
(2) Overhead bridges are found in many parts of Beijing, especially in places where traffic is very heavy and crossing the road is dangerous.
The purpose of these bridges is to enable pedestrians (行人) to cross roads safely. Overhead bridges are used to very much the same way as zebra crossings. They are more efficient (效率高的) although less convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps. This is inconvenient especially to older people. When pedestrains use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traffic. However, when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government has built many overhead bridges to help pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time.
The government of Beijing has spent a large amount of money on building these bridges. For their own safety, pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of risking (冒…危险) their lives by dashing across the road. Old people , however , may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic.
Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make it a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life.

(3) I'm a Chinese student studying in Canada. I have been a boarder(寄宿生) with the Carsons for more than a year and a half.
The Carsons live in their own house, which has four bedrooms including the one in the basement(底层) which I live in. Judy does all the work in the house and Andrew is responsible for the work in the garden. When they go out in they evening, they often ask me to look after their children.
Judy's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Morris, lived in another city. Judy was their only child and naturally they doted on(溺爱) Judy's children. They often sent the children presents.
Last April Mr. Morris died. Now that Mrs. Morris was quite alone, I expected that Judy would want her to come and live with them. One day, Margaret told me grandma was coming to live with them and her daddy and mummy would want my room back. The news didn't surprise me and the next day I went to Judy and asked her about it. I said I couldn't think of living in their basement room any longer if it was needed for Mrs. Morris. Judy seemed surprised at first. Then she told me there was no deed for me to move, for they hadn't yet come to any decision about her mother coming to live with them. "Naturally I'm worried about my mother. She has been in poor health." She smiled sadly and added. "To be honest, Andrew and my mother have never got on well. We'll wait a bit and see what happens. Perhaps Moter will be all right living herself, of perhaps they will both change their minds."
That was six months ago. During this time I've heard that Mrs. Morris has had two illnesses and that her health has got worse. A nursing home was mentioned once but Mrs. Morris refused to go there. So up to now she's still living alone and I'm still living in the basement room.
1. What is the relationship between the speaker and the Carsons?
A. He is a brother of Andrew Carson.
B. He is a close friend of the Carsons.
C. He is a student of Judy Carson.
D. He is a student who pays to live and have meals at the Carsons' house.
2. Why did the speaker expect Mrs. Morris to come to live with her daughter?
A. Because Mr. Morris was dead.
B. Because Mrs. Morris suffered from illness.
C. Because Mrs. Morris lived all by herself.
D. Because of all the reasons mentioned in A, B and C.
3. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Mrs. Morris was coming to live with the Carsons, so they asked the speaker to move.
B. Judy had no brothers or sisters to look after her mother.
C. Mrs. Morris loved her grandchildren very much.
D. The Carsons once suggested that Mrs. Morris go to live in a nursing home.
4. Why didn't Mrs. Morris come to live with her daughter's family?
A. Because the speaker lived in the basement room and there was no other room for her to live in.
B. Because she did not have a good relationship with her son-in-law.
C. Because she was in rather poor health and could not come.
D. Because she did not want to leave her own house.
5. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. My Landlady. B. The Boarder.
C. Family Relationships is Canada. D. Nursing Homes and the Aged

这篇文章叙述了人们几次在喜马拉雅山脉的埃弗勒斯山(Mount Everest)发现可怕雪人(the Abominable Snowman)的情况及其传说。
题号 答案 考查内容
解题依据 解题分析
1 B 逻辑推理前后照应 从本句动词为has been around语意的延续特征看，空缺中的主语不会是具体的某一项事件(event)，也不会是一次探险(adventure)，短文也不仅仅只是对雪人的描述(description)的内容，至少还有关于它的发现、踪迹等。全篇文章讲述的是有关雪人的传说(story)。另外在第三段和最后一段的开头相继两次提及了story，体现了全文内容的呼应及一致。
2 D 前后照应逻辑推理 雪人的传说已经流传有好些年(years)了。从第二段的in the l920s…，第三段的in 1951…，第四段的in 1964…，以及第五段的These years可以推断出关于snowman的话题是近几十年的事情。最早的报道始于1920s，它距今不足百年，排除A项centuries；B项"too long"并非相对于什么时间而言；C项"sometime"的时间量并不明确，也可以排除。
3 C 前后照应词义比较 上一句提到有人报道关于雪人的发现；本句则为来自当地人的另一线索。hear from收到某人的来信，明显不符；care for关心，照顾。假如已经找到了snowman，这一行为自然有可能，但全文并无"真正发现雪人"的内容；read about(从报纸、杂志上) 通过阅读方式获悉；得知……信息；know of间接听人说过而得知，听说。当地人说他们对于snowman早有耳闻，还为其取名为"Yeti"(藏语)。
4 A 词义比较前后照应 上文已有一系列人们对于Yeti的关系和行为：比较finding marks…，knew of…，called it…。与此处had caught Yet is on two occasions之间的语义，用even(甚至于)表现出了这两个行为的递进关系，使人注意到话语中令人吃惊的地方。hardly表否定，不像此处当地人的口气；certainly虽为肯定，但表达了一种"理所当然"的口气，难与前一行为动作(knew of this creature)相衔接；probably表示一种可能，也只是不确定的语气。
5 B 语句连贯 注意前文的肯定意义和none的否定意义。虽然(though)没有找出任何东西作为证据，但他们说竟然两次逮住过雪人。连词thou9h准确地将前文"…they said they had caught…"和后文"none has ever been produced as evidence"的两种陈述形成鲜明的对照。though在此引导一个让步状语从句。另外三个选项中，as引导原因或时间状语从句；when和until引导时间状语从句。
6 D 前后照应逻辑推理 从本段中的"…took photographs or…"，和下段中的"Further efforts….But the only things people have ever found were more footprints"来看，关于雪人的传说在原来的基础上并无新的进展(develop)。第三、四、五段的第一句话，分别提到了三个时期：Over the years…，Further efforts have been…，These days…。它们说明有关雪人的传说仍在延续(continue)。从后文的内容可知，后面再次出现了continue一词。关于雪人的传说没有改变(change)，仍有来自各方面的信息提供。occur表示非延续性动作，不能与状语over these years连用。
7 D 逻辑推理词义比较 Shipton认为这些足迹不是简简单单(simply)的猴子或熊的足迹，应该与雪人有关。entirely全部地，大体地；naturally自然地；clearly明显地；simply简单地，仅仅。其他三个选项显然与亲自拍摄了照片的Shipton的态度不一致。
8 C 词义比较逻辑推理常识运用 found(看到实际的东西而)发现，认为；declared(比较有根据的)断言，宣告；doubted(没有根据或把握而)怀疑；felt(有一定把握地)认为。本空动词为Shipton took photographs之后的两个动作行为之一。应该是先"found"，后有"found"。"doubted"则与"believed"形成冲突。没有线索表明Shipton本人曾经宣告(declared)雪人可能真的存在的事实。
9 A 词义比较逻辑推理 Shipton在拍摄照片后，对于雪人的传说给予一定程度上的确认。他认为雪人可能真地存在(exist)。escape逃跑；disappear消失；return返回。从逻辑上看，B，C，D三项则应在"exist"的前提下才有可能发生。从解题技巧上看，B，C，D三项的意义于选择中各自否定对方，都不完整。
10 B 前后照应 文中只是就又(more)发现了一些足迹而言，同时注意footprints，marks和tracks在文章中表示的是同一内容，即足迹(脚印)。
11 C 前后照应逻辑推理 大部分的人都认为这些脚印仅仅是一般(ordinary)动物，即上文中的monkey or bear，留下的足迹，无所谓巨大的(huge)，可怕的(frightening)动物，更与最近(recent)无关。与上句的"But…"的转折语气一致，对雪人的存在持否定的态度。同时，也与上段中的Shipton在拍摄照片后的发现形成对比。
12 B 常识运用逻辑推理 也许这些足迹有些深度(deep)，不光滑(rough)，看上去也有些奇怪(strange)，但只是雪融化时足迹才会变大(large)，而后又冻结而形成的。脚印大的特征较其他特征更容易误导以为是雪人留下的，因为雪人的脚印比猴子或熊的脚印"大"些。
13 D 前后照应词义比较 1964年的一位苏联科学家所持的观点与本段上文否认雪人的说法相反。只有however起到形成鲜明对比的作用。in the end表示事件的发生顺序；therefore表示因果关系；after all用来引导或提示所说内容的原因或理由。
14 B 词义比较逻辑推理 这位苏联科学家认为雪人真的存在，雪人是至今尚存的介于史前人类与类人猿之间的一种过渡性生物。这样，雪人便是真实的(real)了，而非想象的(imagined)，特别的(special)，人们并不熟悉(familiar)。
15 C 前后照应词义比较 由evidence可以追溯到第二段结尾的"none has ever been produced as evidence"，由此可以判断是"再次否定"，只是又一次(again)没有找到证据。instead相反，表示对立概念；besides再则，表示附加意义；so表示顺承的语气。其余三项均与语境不符。
16 B 词义比较 这位苏联科学家也拿不出证据说这件事情是实实在在地(actually)存在的。actually=in real fact用来强调陈述的真实性；rightly正确地，恰当地；normally正常地，通常地；particularly独特地，显著地。
17 C 词义比较逻辑推理 这一段对全文作出一个总结。说明雪人的传说发展和至今，人们对此所持的态度。近来，仅仅只有少数一些人还对雪人的传说认真(seriously)对待。注意句中only a few people的意义和these days时间的变迁。take something seriously／lightly／jokingly／properly认真严肃地／轻松地／打趣地／适当地对待某事。
18 A 词义比较逻辑推理 全文结尾幽默风趣：真的逮着了雪人，人们又会如何呢？注意句中ever用以强调为"要是，果真，确实，居然"之意，可与表示"成功地(做到)"的succeed in连用。insist on(坚持)一般表示意志动作，无实际行为。depend on(依靠)和join in(加入)与文句意义不符。
19 D 词义比较前后照应逻辑推理 如果他们果真逮住了雪人，他们也就不是作出某一决定(decision)，面临某一形势或局面(situation)，讨论某一题目或话题(subject)，而是可能面临一个真正的问题(problem)要去解决。注意problem与之后的两个疑问句的同位关系和冒号的解释说明作用。
20 A 前后照应逻辑推理常识运用 四个地点似乎都和雪人有关，但我们必须根据具体的语境来考虑。本句恰为本文的幽默所在，且与前文相呼应：开头段中提及雪人为half-man，half-beast(半兽半人)，该处又出现与空缺处单词相对应的a room in a hotel(半人住的地方)，因此答案应为zoo(半兽呆的场所)。是把它当作动物放在动物园里(zoo)呢，还是把它当作人在旅馆里给他布置好房间呢?
