From Paragraph 2, we know that the author was ____. 42. D

　　推理判斷題。由I was forced to…可推知，應當選D，而不要選C。由that was not very convincing可排選項A；選項B是無中生有，也應排除。 A. they forgave the stockbroker

　　B. they failed to get the check C. they went to New York immediately

　　D. they spoke to their boss at once 43. After the author made the phone call, ___. 43. B

　　推理判斷題。由電話中的話“I can’t tolerate any more excuse…when I am in New York next week.”和下段中的The next week we ended up in New York.可推知, 因為如果收到了the check, 她們就不會去了紐約了, 既然去了, 說明沒有收到。 A. It confuses her.

　　B. It embarrasses her. C. It helps her understand the world.

　　D. It helps her tolerate rude people. 44. What does the author think of her mother’s English now? 44. C

　　細節(jié)理解題。由最后一段，But now后的內(nèi)容，特別是最后一句It was the language that …made sense of the world可知，選項C中的understand與make sense of是同義替換。 A. is clear and natural to non-native speakers B. is vivid and direct to non-native speakers C. has a very bad reputation in America D. may bring inconvenience in America 45. We can infer from the passage that Chinese English ____. 45. D

　　I saw things…the world是省略了that的定語從句,

　　在這個從句中有三個并列的謂語。

　　漢語大意：我看觀事情、表達思想和理解世界的方式，正是由這種語言助我形成的。 A. deal with problems rather than blame others B. meet with fewer difficulties in their lives C. have responsible and able colleagues

　　D. blame themselves rather than others 46. According to the passage, winners ____. 46. A

　　推理判斷題。由第一段中的 “once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser”可知“贏家不應責備別人”，由第一段中的 “focusing on how to remedy the situation”和第二段首句Winners are great at overcoming problems可知，“贏家是解決問題”，第二段的舉例中有更明顯的話 “find ways of dealing with…rather than…”，故選A。 47. The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ____.

　　A. avoid

　　B.

　　accept

　　C. improve

　　D. consider 47. C

　　詞義猜測題。由上文“因a bad situation來責備某人或某事是失敗者”,

　　而“改變 the situation是不可能的”,

　　“然而你可以remedy the situation”, 根據(jù)這三句的邏輯關系不難推出，remedy應是“改善”之意。 A. find a better way to handle the problem

　　B. blame him for his lack of responsibility C. tell him to find the cause of the problem D. ask a more able colleague for help 48. When your colleague brings about a problem, you should ____. 48.

Food when poisoned can make people sick. B. Food poisoning means death. C. Food poisoning comes in varieties.

　　D. Food poisoning can be serious. 51. Which of the following statements is NOT true? 51. B

　　細節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的Food poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are deadly和最后一段可知，致命的食物中毒只是其中一些類型，而且可以通過洗胃等方式治愈。因此選項B“食物中毒意味著死亡”言過其實，過于絕對，與文章內(nèi)容不符。由第一段第二句可知, 選項A正確；由第二、三、四段可知,選項C正確；由第一段第三句可知選項D正確。 A. are always accompanied by a fever

　　B. are too common to be noted C. can be noticed within hours

　　D. can be ignored 52. We know from the passage that the symptoms of food poisoning ____. 52. C

　　細節(jié)理解題。由第一段倒數(shù)第二句The symptoms of food poisoning usually begin within hours of eating the poisoned food (食物中毒的癥狀通常在吃了有毒食物后幾個小時內(nèi)顯現(xiàn)出來)可知, 選C。 A. some chemicals

　　B. low temperatures C. some tiny living things

　　D. certain natural materials 53. Food poisoning can be caused by all the following EXCEPT ____. 53. B

　　細節(jié)理解題。由第三段第一句Some chemicals can also cause food poisoning可知，選項A符合事實；由第二段these tiny living things release poisons that make people sick可知選項C符合事實；由第四段第一句Some plants and animals contain natural poisons that are harmful to people可知，選項D符合事實。只有選項B與文中內(nèi)容不符。 A. mushrooms should not be eaten B. vegetables are safer than meat and seafood C. natural poisons are more dangerous than chemicals D. different types of food should be handled differently 54. From Paragraph 5, we can learn that ____. 54. D

　　推理判斷題。本段講到微生物繁殖快、食物表面的化學物質(zhì)、某些食品(如蘑菇)本身含有的天然毒素、某些魚可能有毒等四種類型的食物中毒的不同處理方式。因此，可以得出結論“不同類型的食物應當用不同方法來處理”，故選D。 A. natural materials are safe in food processing

　　B. chemicals are needed in food processing C. food poisoning can be kept under control

　　D. food poisoning is out of control 55. It can be inferred from the passage that ___. 55. C

　　推理判斷題。由第五段When people handle food properly, the risk of food poisoning is very small(只要人們處理食物恰當，食物中毒的可能性是相當小的)和第六段可知，食物中毒是可以控制的。另外，選項C和選項D的意思恰恰相反, 遇上這種情況，一般說來, 必有一個是正確答案, 解題時重點核對這兩個選項即可。 復 記 強 化 deadly

　　漢語大意：如果人們吃了天然毒物，他們就必須馬上去醫(yī)院將胃清空。 * * * * * * * *
