答案：Ⅰ.单项填空
1．D　本题中空格后面的部分是定语从句。从句中包含有短语take advantage of，其中the advantage作先行词。句意为：他在英语学习中进步如此之快是因为他充分利用了他业余时间的每一分钟。
2．A　表状态时用形容词open，不用过去分词opened。tear...open的意思是“把……撕开”，open是形容词，作宾语补足语。
3．D　句意为：一直到9岁，他都认为他们是他的亲生父母，当发现他们不是时，他大吃一惊。
4．C　本题考查非谓语动词中动词不定式的用法。如果名词前有the first，the last等修饰，用动词不定式作定语。
5．B　句意为：我想在这儿订套服装，你要价多少钱？
6．D　考查动词短语。pick up捡起，染上。pick up a lot of bad habits为习惯用法，表示“染上坏习惯”。
7．A　第一空特指学生在事故中丧生的消息，应加定冠词；第二空后的shock为抽象名词具体化，表示“一条震惊的消息”，所以加不定冠词。
8．A　此题考查“祈使句＋and＋句子”这一句型。
9．C　句意为：翟志刚最后被选中进行中国人的第一次太空漫步，是因为他在训练中有着出色的表现。pick out选出；选中，符合句意。bring up抚养长大；pick up捡起；bring out拿出来。
10．D　an advantage over sb.有胜过某人的优势。
11．B　quite a few许多，修饰可数名词复数。
12．B　a great deal副词性质，用做状语；a number of后跟可数名词的复数形式；the number of……的数目，后跟可数名词复数；a great deal of许多，大量，后跟不可数名词。
13．D　前句句意为：睡觉前别忘了把窗子关好。fasten指tie or join together关牢，闩住，扣紧。
14．A　work vi.起作用，生效。若用use应改为it won’t be useful；practise应用it won’t be practical；affect有影响，与句意不符。
15．C　pay是及物动词，“付钱给某人”用句型pay sb.，句中主语cleaning women是接受工资的人，所以应用被动语态。
Ⅱ.阅读理解
【语篇解读】　通过回忆少年时代的经历，作者发现自己从小就对动物和植物充满好奇心，俨然是个天生的自然学家。由于对大自然充满热爱，作者刻苦钻研自然界的奥秘、博览群书，最终学有所成。作者还对比了成为自然学家和科学家所需具备的不同素质。
1．A　推理判断题。根据第一段中的第二至四句可知，在少年时代，作者与兄弟姐妹们不同，一直对昆虫和花草情有独钟。

4．B　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“But curiosity，a keen eye，a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist：one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self­discipline，a quality I lack”一句可推断作者认为自己缺乏成为科学家的一种素质：自律。
【语篇解读】　这是一篇说明文，介绍了暑假期间父母如何为孩子安排阅读。

6．B　细节理解题。由第三段可知，作者建议从图书馆借一些有声读物，开车旅行的时候可以听。
7．D　语意理解题。本段讲的是保持良好的阅读习惯，如每天与孩子读书，不管是睡前还是午后在树荫下。最后，作者提到，去海滩的时候也别忘了带本书。结合语境可知，此处表示即使在沙滩上，读书也非常简单，毫不费力。
