52.A 句意：在来我们学校之前，他在自己的家乡教书。本题考查名词词义辨析及上下文逻辑关系。由上下文可知，这里表示“来我们学校之前”。因此A项school“学校”正确。club俱乐部。office办公室。library图书馆。

53.D 句意：他的父母是舞蹈俱乐部的流行音乐节目主持人，因此音乐和活力伴他长大。本题考查动词词组辨析及上下文逻辑关系。上文提到他的父母是音乐节目主持人，由此可以推断，这里讲的是家庭教育对他成长的影响（伴着音乐长大）。因此D项grow up“长大”正确。go away离开。put up举起，建造，粘贴。catch up赶上，追上。

54.C 句意：他从一个电视节目上得知我们这所麻烦不断的学校缺少师资。本题考查形容词词义辨析及上下文逻辑关系。由下文的challenge可知，这里应填入一个带贬义的形容词，修饰schools；且上文提到“我”一直调皮捣蛋，即这里应表示“麻烦的，不好应对的”。因此此处应填入C项troubled“麻烦的，不平静的，混乱的”。beautiful美丽的。independent独立的。crowded拥挤的。

55.D 句意：他想要挑战一下。本题考查动词词义辨析及上下文逻辑关系。由上下文可知，这里表示“他想要挑战一下”。因此D项want“想要”正确。make制作，使得。accept接受。present呈现，提出，赠送。

第三部分 阅读理解 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的[A]、[B]、[C]和[D]四个选项中，选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Inhis third year, he took top prize in an international science and engineeringfair for designing a program to analyze and sort DNA patterns.

Kunz went to attend Carnegie Mellon, one of the nation’shighest-ranked universities in computer science. After college he got a jobwith Oracle in Silicon Valley, writing software used by companies around theworld.

Three years later, Kunz is in his first year at Harvard Business School. He left software engineering partly because heearned much less than his friends who were going into law or business. He alsoworried about job security （保障）, especially as more companies move theirprogramming outside the country to lower costs.

[A] Kunz won several top prizes.

[B] Kunz liked taking part in fairs.

[C] Kunz designed several programs.

[D] Kunz had a gift for programming.

57.What did Kunz study in Carnegie Mellon?

【答案及解析】

56.D 细节题。文章第一段首句就讲到威廉·库恩兹是一个计算机天才。接下来列举了他在计算机编程方面获得的各种奖励。即第一段主要告诉了我们威廉·库恩兹在计算机编程方面很有天赋。因此D项正确。

57.D 细节题。文章第二段中提到“Kunz went to attend Carnegie Mellon, one of thenation’s highest-ranked universities in computer science.（他上了卡内基梅隆大学，这是全美国在计算机科学领域最拔尖的大学之一。）”，由此可知，他在卡内基梅隆大学学习计算机科学。因此D项正确。

58.A 细节题。由原文最后一段中的“...partly because he earned much less than hisfriends who were going into law or business. He also worried about job security...”可知，库恩兹离开了软件工程这一行业一部分是因为他挣的钱比他那些在法律和商业领域的朋友们少得多，另一部分是因为随着更多的公司为了降低成本将编程业务输出到海外，这一工作也越来越没有保障了。即他放弃软件工程而转向攻读哈佛商学院是为了获得一份待遇更好、更有保障的工作。因此A项正确。

【答案及解析】

59.A 细节题。由原文第一段中的“Potatoes grew in South America five thousandyears ago. But they only became popular in other places two hundred years ago.”可知，五千年前土豆生长在南美。但是直到两百年前，土豆才开始在别的地方流行起来。因此A项正确。

60.C 细节题。由原文第二段中的“...Some people thought that if you ate potatoesyour skin would look like the skin of a potato...”可知，一些欧洲人最开始的时候拒绝吃土豆，一些人认为如果你吃土豆，你的皮肤看起来会像土豆的皮一样，另一些人无法相信植物长在地下的那一部分也可以吃。即他们担心吃土豆会带来皮肤问题。因此C项正确。

61.A 细节题。由原文文章第三段中的“Then, in1845, a disease killed all the potatoesin Ireland. Two million people died of hunger.”可知，1845年，一场疾病摧残了爱尔兰所有的土豆，这使得两百万人因饥饿而死。因此A项正确。

Text 3 There are a growing number of pet owners who feed pets on raw,which means, “uncooked” meat and bones. William Burk, a pet food specialist from the Food and DrugAdministration (FDA), believes that feeding law meat to pets is against itsgoal of protecting the public from health dangers; besides, raw meat and bonesdo not have all the required nutrition （营养） that a pet needsevery day.

Recognizing how popular these foods are, the FDAhas provided guidelines for producers of pet foods that contain uncooked meatfor dogs, cats, and other pets.The guidelines give rules to protect pet owners and pets from dangers aboutfood safety and lack of nutrition.

Pet owners who feed rawmeat and bones should deal with these products very carefully to protectthemselves against possible dangers, says Burk. Just as when preparing foodsfor humans, use hot water andsoap to wash hands, containers, and surfaces that come into contact （接触）with the food. Don’t put your hands near your mouth until you’ve washed them, anddon’t allow your pet to touch your face right after it has eaten meat.

If owners choose to feed bones to their pets they shouldwatch their pet carefully when it is eating bones. Burk also says, “If the peteats a big piece of bone that won’t pass through the digestive system （消化系统）, it could kill the pet.”

63.What does William Burk think of feeding pets on raw?

[A] It’ll make the pet owners sick.

[B] It’ll cause the death of other pets.

[B] Pets should be watched when eating bones.

[C] Pets should be fed with small pieces of bone.

【答案及解析】

63.D 推理题。原文第一段中提到“William Burk...believes that feeding law meat topets is against its goal of protecting the public from health dangers; besides,raw meat and bones do not have all the required nutrition that a pet needs everyday.”，由此可知，威廉·伯克认为用未经加工的肉喂宠物违背了保护公众免遭健康威胁的目标，且未经加工的肉和骨头不能为宠物们提供每天所需的营养物质。因此D项正确。

64.D 推理题。原文第二段中提到“Recognizing how popular these foods are, the FDAhas provided guidelines for producers of pet foods that contain uncooked meatfor dogs, cats, and other pets.（意识到这些食物有多么受欢迎之后，美国食品药品管理局为宠物食品的生产商提供了一些指导）”。即美国食品药品管理局指导宠物食品生产商是因为用未加工的肉喂养宠物很流行。因此D项正确。

65.A 推理题。原文第三段中提到“Pet owners who feed raw meat and bones shoulddeal with these products very carefully to protect themselves against possibledangers, says Burk. Just as when preparing foods for humans...”可知，给宠物准备食物时，主人应该非常小心地处理这些食品来保护自己免遭那些可能的危险，就像为人类做饭一样，要用热水和肥皂洗手、容器以及接触到这些食物的所有物体的表面。因此A项“在给宠物们准备未加工的肉类食物时（应该做一切必要的清洗工作）”正确。

66.B 细节题。原文最后一段中提到“If owners choose to feed bones to their petsthey should watch their pet carefully when it is eating bones.（如果主人选择喂宠物骨头，那么宠物吃骨头时，主人应该仔细地看着）”。因此B项正确。

Text 4 There are some objects in the sky that move so quickly thatsometimes you only see them out of the corner of your eye. These are some ofthe huge number of bits of rock and dust that are floating around in space, calledmeteoroids. Normally, we cannotsee them at all, but if they travel too close to the Earth, they get caught bythe pull of the Earth, and begin to fall towards us. They fall faster andfaster, until they hit our atmosphere （大气层）, by which timethey are going so fast that they begin to burn up, and all that you see is aflash of light that moves very quickly across the sky and disappears. Theseshooting stars, or meteors as they are properly called, are quite common, andsometimes you may see several in a night.

Most meteoroids are very small bits indeed, and they bum uplong before they get to the Earth. However, a very few do manage to get all theway through the atmosphere, and actually fall to the ground. Usually they donot do much damage, although this is not always the case.

Meteoroids that actuallymanage to reach the Earth are called meteorites. Most countries have places where meteoriteshave struck the Earth. Some of these places are very large indeed and aretourist attractions.

【答案及解析】

67.D 细节题。由原文第一段中的“Normally, we cannot see them at all, but if theytravel too close to the Earth, they get caught by the pull of the Earth, andbegin to fall towards us.”可知，有一些物体，通常我们根本看不见它们，但是如果它们离地球太近，受地球引力作用，它们就会落向地球。因此D项“受地球引力作用”正确。

68.C 细节题。由原文第一段中的“they are going so fast that they begin to burnup, and all that you see is a flash of light that moves very quickly across thesky and disappears.”可知，它们下落的速度如此之快以至于它们开始燃烧，你只能看到一道光迅速划过天际，然后消失不见。即流星会很快消失，因此C项正确。

69.A 推理题。由原文第一段中的“They fall faster and faster, until they hit ouratmosphere, by which time they are going so fast that they begin to burn up”可知，它们下落的速度越来越快，直到它们到达大气层，这时，它们的速度如此之快以至于开始燃烧。即流星体到达大气层时会燃烧。因此A项正确。

72.B 词义理解题。根据画线词后面的内容“a free night here, a spa （水疗）pass there.”可知，这里指的是“甚至高端旅游市场也提供一些附加服务：这里可以免费入住一晚，那里可以免费做一次水疗等”。即add-ons在这里指的是“附加服务”。因此B项正确。
