American football is different. Players sometimes kick the ball, but they also throw the ball and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They have four chances to move the ball ten yards. They can carry it or they can throw it. If they move the ball ten yards, they can try to move it another ten yards. If they move it to the end of the field, they receive six points. It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the other team try to stop the man with the ball. If he does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball to the other team. Each university wants its own team to win. Many thousands of people come to watch. They all shout for their favorite team.Young men and women come on the field to help the people shout more. They dance and jump while they shout. Each team plays ten or eleven games each season. The season begins in September and ends in November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the season ends. The best teams play again on January 1, the first day of the New Year.

In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctors degree.Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.11. In the Middle Ages students _.

It is even regarded as the symbol of wealth and social position. For example, with plenty of money a man can do whatever he wants. He can afford expensive cars and luxurious houses, and he can travel around the world and visit many interesting places. In their eyes, money is everything in life.In my opinion, money is not everything. Money can both benefit people and do harm to them. On the one hand, we cant deny that money is useful. We need money to buy food or a house. Money can make us live more comfortably. For example, with more money, we can help others and take part in more social activities and receive a good education, thus increasing our knowledge and developing our skills. On the other hand, some people try to get money by dishonest means, for example, they often cheat and gamble, even rob and kill people. Sooner or later, they will be punished by the law. Money can bring them nothing but misery.题解与分析一、交际用语1. 前者想和经理通话，C项“请别挂机，马上为您接通。”可以用来回答前者。其它选项不符合题意，所以选择C。2. 后者感谢对方的探望。译文：“你身体好点了吗?”“好多了。谢谢你来看我”。所以选择A。3. 本题考查接受邀请时的回答。译文：“嗨！贝蒂，我们将会于下星期六举行自助餐派对，我们想请你来参加”。“我会来的，苏珊。你希望我什么时候到呢?” Id love to意为“我们会来的”；其他选项与题意不符。所以选择A。4. 前者表示祝贺，对其回答首先应表示感谢，所以选择C。5. “你今年要买一套新公寓?”“你在开玩笑。我连日常开销都付不起，更不用说买新公寓了。”You must be joking. 意为“你在开玩笑。”所以选择B。二、阅读理解 6. 根据文章第一句 “In almost every big university in the United States, football is a favorite sport.” 可知这是一篇关于美式足球的文章。该陈述判断正确，所以选择A。7. 通过对美式足球的介绍可知：美式足球和中式足球均可以用脚踢。该陈述判断错误，所以选择B。8. 根据文章第二段的第一句和第二句话 “It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the other team try to stop the man with the ball.” 可知陈述判断正确，所以选择A。9. 根据文章的倒数第二句 “The best teams play again on January 1, the first day of the New Year.” 可知陈述判断正确，所以选择A。10. 根据第三段第四句可知陈述判断错误，所以选择B。11. 根据文章第一段的第一句 “In ancient time the most important examinations were spoken, not written.” 可知“在古代，最重要的考试都是口试，没有笔试。”所以答案是C。12. 根据文章第三段的第一句 “Generally, however, modern examinations are written.” 和倒数第三行 “. timed exactly by electric clocks .” 可知答案是D。13. 根据上下文可以猜测degree是“学位”的意思，即一种学术头衔，所以选择B。14. 答案在文章第三段的第一、二、三、四行可以找到。“The written examination was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry.” 因此，笔试是19世纪才为大家所知，可能是随着人口的增加和现代工业的发展而产生的，所以选择B。15. 通过对比文章的第二段和第三段可知考试形式的转变是以中世纪为分界线的，所以选择C。三、词汇与结构16. be similar to为固定搭配，意为“与相似”。所以选择C。17. 在so, nor引导的句子在表示与上文提到的肯定或否定意思一致时，句子要倒装，并且前后两部分的谓语动词要一致。所以选择B。18. A项意为“尽管”；B项意为“因此”。根据题意，可排除A与B项。而C项的because引导原因状语从句；because of后接名词，表示原因。所以选择D。19. 一些表示感官词或使役动词，如see，hear，have，make，let，have等后面接不带to的不定式做宾补。所以选择A。20. look forward to后需用名词或动名词作宾语，可排除A与C项。而主语和宾语间的关系是主谓关系，所以选择D。四、完型填空 21. so that用来引导目的状语从句。原句意为“显微镜放大微小的东西，以便于我们检查它们。”所以选择B。22. much可以用来修饰比较级closer，表示“更近一些”。所以选择A。23. under conditions为固定搭配，意为“在情况下”。原句意为“然而近几年，在玻璃容易破碎的情况下，塑料已取代玻璃。”所以选择E。24. in the past意为“在过去”，为表示过去的时间状语。所以选择D。25. advantage是名词，意为“优点”。所以选择C。
