7. C [译文] 对大多数人来说，要记住一首长诗是要花相当大的精力的。
[解析] 本题是形近词辨析题。本题中，空上需一个形容词来做effort的定语，
而四个选项中，A. considering是介词或连词（prep./conj.），意为“考虑到/ 就⋯而言”。词性不符。其余三项B, C, D都是形容词，都可做定语，但B. considerate（体贴的，考虑周到的）和D. considered（经过深思熟虑的，被看重的）的汉语意思不符，只有C. considerable（相当大的，相当多的）的汉语意思符合题义，故选C。8. C [译文] 不管他是对还是错，我们都得服从他的命令。

[解析] 本题考察虚拟语气的用法。根据主句是看似简单，实际是错综时态的

169
170
Model Test (4)
[解析] 本题考察虚拟语气的用法。根据主句的“would have”表明句子是虚拟
语态，并且是过去时态，故虚拟的条件也是过去时，A，B排除，C与题意不符，故只能选D。
14. A [译文] 我们不知道他的电话号码，要不然我们就给他打电话了。 [解析] 本题是一个虚拟语气句，该句与过去事实相反，所以应选A。
15. B [译文] 要不是当时他缺钱，他很可能来帮助我们的。
[解析] but that⋯“若不是”，表示虚拟的条件，要注意的是：that从句表述的
是事实情况，故从句中的动词用陈述语气，而主句需要虚拟语气。另外，but for后面接名词或代词所表示的意思与之相同。如：But for your help, we could not have finished. 要不是你的帮助，我们是不可能完成的。16. D [译文] 我倒希望你没有立即把这封信寄出。
[解析] 四个选项中，在would rather后的that从句中，谓语动词用过去时表示愿
望，that可省略；故D为正确答案。其它三个选项的动词形式都不符合would rather从句的虚拟形式。17. A [译文] 他带上了雨衣以防下雨。
[解析] 本题考察虚拟语气的用法。在in case, lest, for fear that引起的状语从句
中，要用虚拟语气，表示“以防，以免”。形式为“should+动词原形”。故选A。18. C [译文] 汤姆缺乏经验，指派他做这项工作，我认为是不恰当的。
[解析] 在advisable后的从句中，要用虚拟语气，虚拟形式为“(should)+动词原
形”。故正确答案为C。19. B [译文] 要是他愿意按我告诉他的去做就好了，但他不肯。
[解析] 本题考察虚拟语气的用法。if only意为“但愿，要是⋯就好了”，由
if only引导的句子，谓语动词需用虚拟语气，如果表示现在的愿望，用would/could + do，如果表示与过去事实相反的愿望，用would/could + have done，根据本题题干的后半部分，可知句子表示的是与现在事实相反的愿望，故选B。20. A [译文] 假设你有出国的机会，你将去哪儿？
[解析] supposing与providing等本身形式上是现在分词，但在功能上被视为连
词，同if, only等一样可以引导虚拟条件句，本题就是由supposing引导的虚拟条件句，因为主句的时态是将来时态，故从句中用had而不用had had。

Part VI. Reading Comprehension
1. C 本题问的是：该文章的中心思想是什么？必须读懂全文，高度概括，并在选项中

W: Mr. Li, thank you for coming in today. Please have a seat. I’ve looked over your
resume and wanted to meet you to ask you a few questions.
M: Thank you for asking me to come in.
W: First, can you tell me a little about yourself?
M: Certainly. I majored in English literature in college, and spent two years in Lon-don studying. After graduation, I worked for a bank for three years, and then went to work for a trading company. I’m an optimistic and self-motivated person. I try very hard to be successful in my work. I can work well under pressure and enjoy W: M: W: M:
doing work that challenges me.
Then why do you want to leave your company?
I do enjoy my job, but I believe I am ready for more challenging work now. OK, What are your strong points?
As I mentioned, I can work well under pressure and I enjoy work that challenges me.
And your weaknesses?
I think I sometimes try to be over-organized. So I am learning how to concentrate on the most important parts of my job.
I see from your resume that you have no experience working with foreign compa-nies. May I ask why you now wish to do so?
I think my English speaking ability can be very useful to a foreign company. Why are you interested in our company, in particular?
Well, I know that your company is planning to extend in China and the rest of Asia. So, I think it’s an exciting time for you and I could play a small part in help-ing you grow. As I said, I’m very self-motivated and want to feel I’m making a contribution to my company.
Mr. Li, thank you again for coming in, and we’ll be in touch with you in the next few days.

Perhaps you need a change. Have you ever thought about working somewhere else? You know, a different sort of job.
W: Well, no. It’s not that. I like it here. I like working for LTV. I think television is
exciting. It’s just that my job, what I do, seems so boring, so repetitive.
M: I see. Yes, I think I understand how you feel. I’m glad you told me. But you’ve got
to realize, Lucy, that we can’t all do exciting work all the time.

Directions: In this section, you will hear 2 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some
questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Then write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
Passage One
Alexander Graham Bell, the father of the electric telephone, was born in Edin-burgh, Scotland, on March 3, 1847. He graduated from Edinburgh University and re-ceived further education in London. He died in 1922.
When Bell was a young man, he was very ill. Indeed, his long illness was one of the chief reasons for his parents to move to Canada where he finally recovered from his illness. Bell’s father and grandfather had spent all their lives studying human speech and how to teach the deaf to speak, and he followed them. His main interest throughout his life was in helping the deaf. He was so successful that he was invited to teach at the University of Boston, where he became a professor as a result of his work in speech and hearing.
176
Model Test (4)
Bell began to experiment with ways in which people could talk with each other over long distances. In 1874, he succeeded in inventing the telephone. However, it was not until 1876 that the world’s first telephone was shown to the public. The first com-plete sentence ever spoken over the telephone was “Mr. Watson, come here. I want you.”
Questions 1 to 3 are based on the passage you have just heard.
1. 2. 3.
Where was Alexander Graham Bell born?
What was Bell’s main interest throughout his life?
In which year did Bell succeed in inventing the telephone?
Passage Two
Many rules govern drivers on American streets and highways. The most common ones are the speed limit. The speed limit regulates how fast a car may go. On streets in the city, the speed limit is usually 25 or 35 miles per hour. On the highways between cities, the speed limit is usually 55 miles per hour. When people drive faster than the speed limit, a policeman can stop them. The policeman gives them pieces of paper which people call traffic tickets. Traffic tickets tell the drivers how much money they must pay. When drivers receive too many tickets, they probably cannot drive for a while. The rush hour is when people are going to work or going home from work. At rush hour there are many cars on the streets and traffic moves very slowly. Nearly all American cities have rush hours. Drivers do not get tickets very often for speeding the rush hours because they cannot drive fast.
Questions 4 to 7 are based on the passage you have just heard.
4. 5. 6. 7.
What is the speed limit on highways in America?What is on a traffic ticket?
What will happen if a driver receives too many traffic tickets?How is the traffic during rush hour?
Part IV. Spot Dictation
Directions: You will hear a short passage which is printed on your test paper with some words or phrases
missing. The passage will be read 3 times. You’d better just listen and get a general idea of it in the first reading. During the second reading, you are required to put the missing words on the blanks according to what you hear. The third time reading is for you to check your an-swers. Now the passage will begin.
My father was severely crippled and very short. When we walked together, he would lean on me with a hand on my arm for balance. I used to feel embarrassed to be seen with him while growing up, and inwardly I would struggle at people’s attention to our uncoordinated steps. Even if he was bothered by my reluctance, he never let on. He Band One
just let me set the pace and he adjusted to me. Now that I am a grownup, I am amazed at his courage for subjecting himself to the shame and stress without bitterness or com-plaint. He never invited pity for himself, nor did he show envy of the more fortunate. I think of him often when I complain about trifles, when I am envious of another’s good fortune, when I don’t have a “good heart”.
