A．have thought B．had thought C．think D．thought
参考答案：
B
我本来认为她能准时回来的，但是直到半夜她也没有出现．
根据句意可知，该动作think应发生在"she didn't turn up until midnight（一般过去时）直到半夜她也没有出现"之前，所以此处表示发生在过去之前的动作，应使用过去完成时；故选B
本题考查了过去完成时（had+done）的用法．做本题的关键是：根据句意确定该动作发生的时间是在过去的过去或过去某时间之前；另外，还应熟练掌握过去完成时的意义及其句式结构．

In the summer holiday following my eighteen birthday, I took driving lessons. I still remember how hard first day was. Before getting into the car, I thought I had learned the instructor’s orders, so once I started the car, my mind goes blank. I forgot what he had said to me altogether. The instructor kept repeating the word, “Speed up!” “Slow down!” “Turning left!” I was so much nervous that I could hardly tell which direction was left. A few minutes late, the instructor asked me to stop the car. It was a relief and I came to a suddenly stop just in the middle on the road.
参考答案：

【详解】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在暑假期间考驾照第一天发生的故事。
1. 考查数词。在我十八岁生日后的那个暑假。eighteen意思为“十八，十八个”，表示数量，eighteenth表示“第十八个的”，故将eighteen改为eighteenth。
2. 考查冠词。我依然记得第一天是多么艰难。句中特指开始学驾照的第一天，所以在first前加上the。也可以加上my，my first day表示“我（学驾照）的第一天”。故在first前加the或my。
3. 考查连词。根据句意可知作者本以为自己已经掌握了教练的话，结果一发动车，脑中一片空白。所以前后文为转折关系。故将so改为but。
4. 考查时态。根据前文中的started可知时态为一般过去时，故将goes改为went。
5. 考查单复数。教练一直喊“加速”，“减速”，“左转”。 word的意思主要是“单词,消息”，words 可以表示为word的复数，表示某人说的话。这里指教练说的那些话，故将word改为words。
6. 考查非谓语动词。分析语境可知教练的话“加速”，“减速”，“左转”都是祈使句，根据前文“Speed up!” “Slow down!”也可以看得出来。祈使句应该用动词原形，故将Turning改为Turn。
7. 考查固定句型。我如此紧张以至于无法分辨哪个方向是左。固定句型sothat表示“如此以至于.”，much为多余成分。故将much去掉。
8. 考查副词。做形容词的时候，later是late的比较级，如：Their deadline is quite late. Ours is even later.（他们的截止日期很迟.我们的更迟.）做副词的时候，late是迟的意思，later是稍后、随后的意思。句意：几分钟之后。故将late改为later。
9. 考查形容词。我紧急刹车。suddenly是副词，表示“意外地，忽然地”。 sudden为形容词，表示“突然的；迅速的”。a sudden stop表示“急刹车”。故将suddenly改为sudden。
10. 考查介词。分析语境可知作者表示“在路中间急刹车”，on the road表示“在路上”， the middle of the road表示“路的中央”，强调的是“the middle”。故将on改为of。
三、 阅读理解
21. London’s newest skyscraper (摩天大楼）is called the Shard and it cost about 430 million pounds to build. At a height of almost 310 metres, it is the tallest building in Europe. The Shard has completely changed the appearance of London. However, not everyone thinks that it is a change for the better.
The Shard was designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano. When he began designing the Shard for London, Piano wanted a very tall building that looked like a spire (尖顶). He wanted the glass surfaces to reflect the sky and the city. The sides of the building aren’t regular. So the building has an unusual shape. It looks like a very thin, sharp piece of broken glass. And that is how the building got the name: the Shard. Piano says that the spire shape of the Shard is part of a great London tradition. The shape reminds him of the spires of the churches of London or the tall masts (桅杆) of the ships that were once on the river Thames.
The Shard has 87 floors. At the top, there is an observatory. At the moment the building is empty, but eventually there will be a five-star hotel. There will also be top quality restaurants, apartments and offices.
Before building work began, a lot of people didn’t want the Shard though the plans were approved. Now they are still unhappy about the Shard. Some critics say that such a tall skyscraper might be good in a city like New York, but not in London. They say that the best thing about the Shard is its spire shape. But that is the only thing. There is no decoration, only flat surfaces. The Egyptians did that 4,500 years ago. They also think the Shard is too big for London. It destroys the beauty of the city.
Other critics don’t like what the Shard seems to represent. They say that the Shard shows how London is becoming more unequal. Only very rich people can afford to buy the expensive private apartments and stay in the hotel. But the people who live near the Shard are among the poorest in London. So the Shard seems a symbol of the division in society between the very rich and the poor.
The Shard now dominates the London skyline. It is not certain, however, that ordinary London citizens will ever accept it as a valuable addition to the city.
8. London’s newest skyscraper is called the Shard because of________.
A. its cost    B. its size
C. its height    D. its shape
9. When he designed the Shard, Piano wanted it to________.
A. change London’s skyline    B. inherit London’s tradition
C. imitate the Egyptian style    D. attract potential visitors
10. The critics who refer to social division think the Shard________.
A. is only preferred by the rich    B. is intended for wealthy people
C. is far away from the poor area    D. is popular only with Londoners
11. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Shard: Cheers and Claps    B. The Shard: Work of a Great Architect
C. The Shard: A Change for the Better?    D. The Shard: New Symbol of London?
参考答案：
8. D    9. B    10. B    11. C
这是一篇夹叙夹议的议论文。文章讲述了伦敦新建了欧洲最高的被称之为“the Shard”的摩天大楼，成为了伦敦的新标志，然而对此却有不同的观点，尤其是对新的摩天大楼代表的阶层更是有络绎不绝的批评之声。
8. D考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“He wanted the glass surfaces to reflect the sky and the city. The sides of the building aren’t regular. So the building has an unusual shape”可知正是因为它的外形新的摩天大楼才被称作为“the Shard”.故D正确。
9. B考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“Piano says that the spire shape of the Shard is part of a great London tradition ”可知Piano希望摩天大楼更多承载的是伦敦的传统，故B正确。
10. B考查细节理解。根据文章第五段“Only very rich people can afford to buy the expensive private apartments and stay in the hotel. …So the Shard seems a symbol of the division in society between the very rich and the poor.”可知批评者认为它只是代表了有钱的富人，也成为了穷人与富人的区分和界限，故B正确。
11. C考查文章标题。根据文章第一段“However, not everyone thinks that it is a change for the better ”可知文章是在探究与阐述对新的摩天大楼所带来的变化究竟是怎样的，故利用这样的话题作为标题很鲜明直接，故C正确。
22. Our particular parenting style reflects our own way of “looking”. Here’s a great piece of writing reflecting parent’s particular ways on the parenting style that have become known humorously as helicopter parenting and submarine (潜水艇) parenting.
Helicopter parents hover over their children, managing every aspect of their child’s life. On the contrary, submarine parents remain “hidden” coming to the surface when guidance is needed.
While helicopter parents may have the best intentions, in reality, they are raising children with few problem-solving skills. Children with hovering parents never get the chance to face disappointment and build up their own ability to recover from misfortune.
Think about your typical submarine. Submarines usually remain underwater. In case of a need for emergency surfacing, submarines can rise so quickly that they are driven partially out of the water. Submarine parents also remain out of sight, yet able to pop up in the case of an emergency.
I admit I’m a submarine mom. My job as a parent is to have fun with my daughters while letting them explore and learn natural consequences.
My older daughter found herself acting in commercials and making more than minimum wage as a teen. To give her a sense of the real world, I insisted she spend three weeks every summer, picking strawberries and earning $3.50 on a good day.
When my youngest daughter Sondra was six, she wanted a very expensive American Girl Doll. I cut the full color1 18-inch picture out of the American Girl catalogue and had it laminated (压膜). “Here’s your American Girl Doll.” I said, “When you turn nine, I’ll buy you the 3D doll on your birthday.” Sondra played with her flat doll for months, making clothes and furniture for her. She learned creativity. I saved $88.00.
41. The passage is mainly about _________.
A. various means of growing up B. funny experiences of a mom
C. humorous stories about parents D. different styles of parenting
42. The underlined phrase “hover over” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_________”.
A. leave behind B. fly away
C. watch over D. set aside
43. Which of the following is TRUE of helicopter parents?
A. They give their children proper guidance.
B. They try to do everything for their children.
C. They teach their children how to face failures.
D. They help their children explore by themselves.
44. It can be inferred from the last two paragraphs that Mom _________.
A. has good parenting skills B. is always making promises
C. is strict with her daughter D. tries her best to save money
45. The author supports her point of view mainly by _________.
