【答案】C
【解析】考察時態。時態題目做題的關鍵在於把握動作或狀態發生的時間。本題要填入的是一個狀態，爲make no sense無意義，那麼這個狀態發生的時間是什麼時候呢？題目的下半句話說，很多事情在明年都會發生變化，暗示沒有意義這個狀態是跟現在有關的，說明現在過早的做計劃是沒有意義的，因此選擇表示現在狀態的一般現在時。句意爲，過早的做計劃是沒有意義的，因爲很多事情在明年都會發生變化。

【答案】A
32．They have arrived at lunchtime but their flight was delayed.
ld
【答案】D
【解析】考察情態動詞。shall常用於第二、三人稱主語後面表示說話人的意圖。句子的意思爲，他們應該在午飯的時間到達，但是航班卻晚點了。根據句意應選D。
33．It is generally accepted that boy must learn to stand up and fight like man.
A.a;a B.a;the ;the D.a;不填
【答案】A
【解析】考察冠詞。句中冠詞後的兩個名詞爲boy和man，皆爲單數可數名詞。句子的意思爲，大家普遍認爲，男孩必須站起來像男人一樣去戰鬥。從句子的意思我們可以看出，boy和man都是泛指，單數可數名詞泛指應在名詞前加不定冠詞a。

第二節 完形填空（共20小題：每小題1.5分，滿分30分） 閱讀下面的短文，從短文後各題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項，並在答題卡上將該項塗黑。 In our discussion with people on how education can help them succeed in life,a woman remembered the first meeting of an introductory__36__course about 20 years ago.

march into是含義是“行軍、走過”。
【解析】考查名詞，學生對未知世界開啓的是一次航程，而非“運動”、“改變”亦或者“匆忙衝進”，於是選擇A。
46.【答案】B
【解析】考查名詞，解題關鍵是invisible，並且給出了中文註釋。中文註釋是必須關注的，給出中文註釋的詞未必是大家不認識的，但必須是解題的關鍵，本題就是完全的體現，對於什麼而言是無形的，形狀自然是眼睛看到的，於是選擇B本題難。
47.【答案】D
【解析】考查名詞，因爲我們說過三段開始由“二十年後”引出，說明前後段邏輯緊密，而前一段說明的事情是我們不能相信自己的感覺做科學，於是本題中能夠發現那個肉眼無法識別的無形未知世界的絕不是“感覺”或者“精神”，排除B、C；而model的含義是“模型”，顯然的無關選項，排除；最終選擇D，科學的方法。
48.【答案】A
【解析】考查動詞，even是一個強烈的遞進關係詞，那麼根據語義，相比不能接受這些邀請更加強烈的情況是不去聽這些邀請。
55.【答案】A
【解析】考查動詞，被教授傷害後，我對這個科目能做的動作顯然不是“開始學習”或者“通過”，於是排除B、C；而missed的含義是“失去”，無關選項；選擇A，“放棄”。
第三部分 閱讀理解（共兩節，滿分40分）
第一節（共15小題：每小題2分，滿分30分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中，選出最佳選項，並在答題卡上將該項塗黑。
A
When milk arrived on the doorstep
When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note-“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”-and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.
All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to out house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch （門廊）. Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.
56. Mr Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer__ to satisfy his curiosity __.
A. to show his magical power. B. to pay for the delivery
C. to satisfy his curiosity. D. to please his mother.
57. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy’s house?
A. He wanted to have tea t here.
B. He was a respectable person.
C. He was treated as a family member.
D. He was fully trusted by the family.
58. Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?
A. Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
B. It has been driven out of the market.
C. Its service is getting poor.
D. It is forbidden by law.
59. Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?
A. He missed the good old days.
B. He wanted to tell interesting stories.
C. He missed it for his milk bottles.
D. He planted flowers in it.

While small may be beautiful, tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems, particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.
The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB), which was formed six months ago to campaign for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants. Beds that are too small, showe heads that are too low, and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height, it says.
But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met. The average night of the population has been increasing ye the standard size of beds, doorways, and chairs has remained unchanged.]
“The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it, so even a king-size bed at 6′6″(6 feet and 6 inches) is falling short for 25% of men, while the standard 6′3″ bed caters for less than half of the male population.” Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy, “seven-foot beds would work fine.”
Sililarly, restaurant tables can cause no end of problems. Small tables, which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them, are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.
Some have already taken note, however. At Queens Moat Houses′Caledoman Hotl in Edinburgh, 6′6″beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors, particularly Americans.
64. What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?
A. To provide better services.
B. To rebuild hotels and restaurants.
C. To draw public attention to the needs of the tall.
D. To attract more people to become its members.
65. Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heinricy?
A. 7′2″. B. 7′ C. 6′6″ D. 6′3″
may happen to restaurants with small tables?
A. They may lose some customers.
B. They may start businesses elsewhere.
C. They have to find easy chairs to match the tables.
D. They have to provide enough space for the long-legged.
67. What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?
A. Tall people pay more for larger beds.
B. 6′6″beds have taken the place of 6′3″beds.
C. Special rooms are kept for Americans.
D. Guest rooms are standardized.
【解題導語】說明文。主要講述一個英國的高個子組織TPCGP在六個月以前向賓館和酒店發起的針對高個子的一些特殊需求的活動。
64. 答案C 細節理解題。由第二段的which was formed six months ago to campaign for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants.可知TPCGP是爲了讓公衆注意高個子的一些特殊需求。
65. 答案B細節理解題。由倒數第三段Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy, “seven-foot beds would work fine.”可知。
66. 答案A推理題。由倒數第二段的內容可知，如果飯店使用小的桌子，自然就失去了高個子這樣一類羣體的顧客。選A。
67. 答案B。細節理解題。ACD在文中均是無中生有，在文中無對應內容。由倒數第一段可知6′6″beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors, particularly Americans.B項正確。
