一、Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)
Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
For 20 months the wrecked Costa Concordia has been lying on its side near the coast of Giglio, a small Italian island. But on Tuesday, as part of the largest salvage ( 打捞 ) operation ever conducted, the large ship was finally moved to the upright position. The next step is for the vessel to be removed from the area entirely.
The Costa Concordia is twice the weight of the Titanic. The ship itself didn ' t budge (稍微移动) for the first three hours of the operation, Sergio Girotto told reporters. He and other engineers worked for 19 hours before Concordia was declared completely upright.
The Costa Concordia capsized on January 13, 2012, after its captain, Francesco Schettino, brought the ship too close to the shore. The ship hit coastal rocks, which caused serious damage and allowed water to pour in. (76) Most of the 4200 people on board made it to land safely, but more than 30 people were killed in the disaster. Two people remain missing. The Concordia 's captain is currently on trial for causing a shipwreck and abandoning his ship.
The operation to right the ship is called parbuckling. While parbuckling is a standard operation to right capsized ships, it has never before been used on such a large ship. (77) Workers had been waiting for favorable weather condition to undertake the operation. On Monday, authorities gave the final go-ahead.
The process was expected to take no more than 12 hours. But problems with the large system of steel chains caused delays. Engineers worked through the night using cables and metal water tanks to roll the ship onto special platforms.
The Concordia is expected to be pulled away from Giglio in the spring of 2014 and turned into scrap metal (废金属). The ship's owner, Costa Cruises, will pay for the recovery, which has already cost more than $800 million.

Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
(78) Would you risk your life for a country that considered you a second class citizen? Would you join a military that asked you to risk sacrificing your life but separated you from other soldiers because of the color of your skin? That is precisely what the Tuskegee Airmen did. They were brave, intelligent, African-American men and women who fought for the United States in World War II.
In 1940, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt agreed to allow African Americans to fly airplanes in the military. Before that, African Americans could only serve in the Armed Forces as part of the ground troops. The first African American airmen reported for duty in 1941. They began their training outside of Tuskegee, Alabama. (79) The soldiers were completely separated by race and the two races could not communicate. About 450 African American pilots finished the training. These men were the original Tuskegee Airmen.
The Tuskegee Airmen had an amazing record. They did not lose any of the bombers they were escorting (护航). When the war was over in 1945, the Tuskegee Airmen were heroes. But when they returned to America, they were appalled to find out that they were still treated like second-class citizens. They faced the same segregation (种族隔离) and discrimination (歧视) as they had before they began their training.
Frederick Henry, one of the original Tuskegee Airmen, lives in Detroit, Michigan. Because he was from the North, he would often forget the segregation rules of the South. Once, Henry was on a bus alone with a white bus driver. Soon, after the two had talked for a while, a wave of other passengers came on the bus. A problem arose when some white passengers were still standing, which was against the rules. Henry was put off the bus, even though he was the first person to board the bus and had paid his fare.
One thing did change, however. In 1948, President Harry S. Truman signed an executive order prohibiting segregation in the military. Eventually, the Tuskegee Airmen were officially thanked for their amazing efforts in the war.

Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Coffee is a powerful drink. On a personal level, it helps keep us awake and active. (80) On a much general level, it has helped shape our history and continues to shape our culture.
Coffee plants grow wild in parts of Africa and were probably used by travelling tribes ( 部落) for thousands of years , but it wasn't until the 1400s that people figured out they could roast its seeds.
"Then it really took off,"said historian Mark Pendergrast-author of Uncommon Grounds: the History of Coffee and How It Transformed Our World. By the 1500s, the drink had spread to coffeehouses across the Arab world Within another 150 years,it took Europe by storm."It actually had a major impact on the rise of business, " Pendergrast says. Coffeehouses became a spot not just to enjoy a cup but to exchange ideas.
The insurance industry was founded hundreds of years ago in one of London's 2,000 coffeehouses. Literature, newspapers and even the works of great composers like Bach and Beethoven were also inspired in coffeehouses.
It is often said that after the Boston Tea Party of 1773, when American colonists (殖民者 attacked British tea ships and threw large boxes of tea into the harbor, Americans everywhere switched over to drinking coffee."There's a lot of truth to the story, I found," Pendergrast says. He mentions a letter John Adams wrote to his wife, Abigail, in which the Founding Father declares his love of tea but says he will have to learn to accept coffee instead, because drinking tea had become unpatriotic (不爱国的)。
For all the upsides coffee has brought the modem world, it also brought its fair share of downsides, too. Europeans carried coffee with them as they colonized various parts of the world, and this frequently meant they made people into slaves in order to grow it.

四、Part IV Cloze (10%)
Part IV Cloze (10%)
The mind-success connection is strong, and many obstacles to our success are also mental. Some people rely more on facts, 56 others rely more on feelings. There is no “right way” to be, but we all have the natural ability to “feel” our way successfully 57 an unlighted path.
I learned this 58 I was standing on a curb (路边) in a city in Vietnam (越南). My objective, a restaurant where my husband Tom was 59 for me, stood on the 60 side of the street, I was 61 and could smell the food. But it seemed as if the restaurant were miles away. The street was 62 with motor cycles, bicycles, cars, trucks and buses. Rather than 63 the traffic into two lanes, the yellow lane markers apparently served only to 64 that you were on a paved (铺设的) road. People passed,stopped, turned around and crossed center lines.
Traffic flowed both ways in the same lane, and more traffic turned onto the street from side ones. Even when the signal tight turned red, traffic 65 to flow as drivers entirely 66 the signal, rushing to me from front, back, sides and all angles.
I was ready to abandon lunch with Tom when a local gentleman 67 my arm. In English, he kindly said, “Crossing the street is not a problem, 68 a dance.” With that we stepped 69 the curb and into the chaos (混乱). My heart 70 faster as we walked slowly across. 71 greeting us with sharp horns and angry shouts, drivers saw and adjusted to us. As long as we made no sudden 72 , we were fine. I felt as if we were gracefully swimming 73 a school of fish. The traffic flowed smoothly around us, in all directions. 74 I knew it, we were across.
Learning to dance through the chaos of traffic is just 75 your feelings. It's a combination of intention, timing and trust.
56、( 56 )
A、as
B、while
C、where
D、when
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在句子中,有一个对比关系,即“有些人更多地依赖事实,而另一些人更多地依赖感觉”。这里需要一个连词来连接这两个部分,表示对比关系。选项A的“as”表示“作为”,选项C的“where”表示“在……地方”,选项D的“when”表示“当……时候”,都不符合句意。而选项B的“while”表示“而,然而”,符合对比关系的语境,因此选B。
57、( 57 )
A、along
B、with
C、beside
D、under
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中提到“we all have the natural ability to ‘feel’ our way successfully”,暗示了成功的感觉与“feel”有关,而“feel our way”表示“凭感觉前进”,因此空格处应该填入与“凭感觉前进”相关的介词。选项A中的“along”表示“沿着”,与“凭感觉前进”相符,因此是正确答案。选项B的“with”表示“与……一起”,不符合题意;选项C的“beside”表示“在……旁边”,也不符合题意;选项D的“under”表示“在……下面”,与题意不符。
58、( 58 )
A、where
B、what
C、when
D、which
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据题目中的语境,句子“I learned this”后面应该接的是学习的内容,而“where”表示地点,“what”表示事物,“when”表示时间,“which”表示选择,都不符合语境。而“what”表示事物,符合语境,表示“我学习到了什么”,因此答案为C。
59、( 59 )
A、waiting
B、looking
C、expecting
D、seeing
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中提到"我的目标是一家餐厅,我的丈夫Tom在那里等我",所以此处应该填写的是"等待",即选项A "waiting"。而选项B "looking"表示"看",选项C "expecting"表示"期待",选项D "seeing"表示"看见",都不符合题意。因此,正确答案为A。
60、( 60 )
A、opposed
B、nearby
C、different
D、opposite
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,作者站在路边,想要到达街对面的餐馆,因此应该选择“opposite”表示“对面”的意思,即选项D。其他选项的含义与上下文不符。
61、( 61 )
A、earnest
B、hungry
C、splendid
D、worried
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,句子中描述的是“我”站在路边,可以看到餐厅,并且可以闻到食物的香味,但感觉餐厅距离很远。这表明“我”此时很饿,所以选项B“hungry”符合语境。而选项A“earnest”意为认真的,选项C“splendid”意为辉煌的,选项D“worried”意为担心的,都不符合语境。
62、( 62 )
A、grouped
B、pressed
C、crowded
D、provided
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,描述的是越南城市街头混乱的交通状况,其中“交通流动在同一条车道上”,所以选择描述“交通拥堵”的“crowded”。选项A“grouped”意为“分组”,选项B“pressed”意为“挤压”,选项D“provided”意为“提供”,均不符合语境。因此,正确答案为C。
63、( 63 )
A、dividing
B、combining
C、cutting
D、joining
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中提到“街道上满是摩托车、自行车、汽车、卡车和公交车”,而且交通是双向流动的,所以这里需要用到一个词来分隔交通流,使交通能够有序地流动。因此,选项A“dividing”表示“分隔”最符合语境。其他选项的意思分别是:B“combining”表示“结合”,C“cutting”表示“切割”,D“joining”表示“连接”,都不符合语境。因此,正确答案是A。
64、( 64 )
A、strengthen
B、conclude
C、indicate
D、express
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,句子中提到了“yellow lane markers”,这些标记似乎只是用来“表明”你正在走在铺设的道路上,而不是将交通分为两个车道。因此,这里需要一个能够表明这种指示意义的选项。选项C“indicate”恰好符合这个描述,表示“表明,指示”。因此,答案为C。
65、( 65 )
A、responded
B、trans formed
C、recovered
D、continued
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:句子中提到即使信号灯变为红色,车辆仍然继续行驶,表明车辆并没有停止,而是继续行驶。因此,选项D "continued"符合句意,表示车辆继续行驶。其他选项A "responded"表示回应,B "transformed"表示变化,C "recovered"表示恢复,都不符合句意。
66、( 66 )
A、respected
B、ignored
C、remembered
D、misunderstood
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文中提到,尽管交通信号灯已经变红,但车辆仍然继续行驶,因为司机们完全忽视了信号灯,这表示司机们忽视了交通信号灯,因此选项B“ignored”最符合文意。其他选项如“A respected”(尊重)、“C remembered”(记住)和“D misunderstood”(误解)在文中并没有体现。
67、( 67 )
A、hit
B、led
C、took
D、struck
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在原文中,描述了一个人在越南的街头,面对混乱的交通,一位当地绅士牵着他的手,告诉他“过马路不是问题,而是一场舞蹈”。因此,空格处应该填入一个表示“牵住”的动作,而“took”恰好符合这个意思。因此,答案为C选项“took”。
68、( 68 )
A、besides
B、but
C、rather
D、except
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,句子中提到了“crossing the street is not a problem, __ a dance”,表示过马路不是一个问题,而更像是一种舞蹈。因此,空格处应该填入表示“但是”的连词,表示前后两个句子之间的转折关系。选项B中的“but”符合语境,表示前后两个句子之间的转折关系。因此,答案为B。
69、( 69 )
A、off
B、on
C、with
D、for
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据语境,这里是在描述一位外国人在越南城市的经历,当地人告诉他过马路并不是问题,而是一种舞蹈。根据语境和逻辑,这里的动作应该是“走上(onto)”马路,而不是“走下(off)”、“随着(with)”或“为了(for)”马路。因此,选项A“走上”是正确答案。
70、( 70 )
A、beat
B、moved
C、leapt
D、jumped
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在原文中,描述了一个人在越南的街头,面对混乱的交通,心跳加速,准备过马路。根据语境,心跳加速应该是一个逐渐的过程,而不是突然的移动、跳跃或飞跃。因此,选项A "A beat" 最符合语境,表示心跳逐渐加快。
71、( 71 )
A、Regardless of
B、In spite of
C、For lack of
D、Instead of
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在原文中,描述了一个人在越南的街头穿过混乱的交通,作者感到心跳加速,但是只要他们不突然行动,就能顺利穿越。最后,作者得出结论,学习在混乱的交通中跳舞就像使用你的感觉一样,这是一种意图、时机和信任的组合。因此,空格71应该填写表示“代替”的词语,表示作者虽然感到心跳加速,但并没有被混乱的交通吓倒,而是用跳舞的方式代替了恐惧,成功地穿越了交通。因此,正确答案是D,即“代替”。
72、( 72 )
A、recognitions
B、suspicions
C、movements
D、enjoyments
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文中提到“只要我们不突然做出什么动作,我们就会没事”,所以正确答案是“movements”(动作)。其他选项如“recognitions”(识别)、“suspicions”(怀疑)和“enjoyments”(享受)都不符合文意。因此,正确答案是C。
73、( 73 )
A、under
B、through
C、above
D、between
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,作者描述了自己在越南的街头,面对混乱的交通,一位当地绅士告诉他“过马路不是问题,而是一场舞蹈”。因此,作者和绅士一起慢慢地穿过马路,感觉像是在鱼群中优雅地游泳。因此,空格处应该填入“through”,表示穿过马路,与“舞蹈”相呼应。选项A“under”表示“在……下面”,不符合语境;选项C“above”表示“在……上面”,也不符合语境;选项D“between”表示“在……之间”,与语境不符。因此,正确答案是B。
74、( 74 )
A、Although
B、After
C、Where
D、Before
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在原文中,作者描述了自己在越南街头穿越混乱的交通情况,最终成功到达餐厅的经历。在描述过程中,作者提到“只要我们不突然行动,我们就没问题”,这表明作者已经成功穿越交通,到达餐厅之前,因此应该选择“Before”表示“在此之前”。因此,答案为D。
75、( 75 )
A、following
B、considering
C、astonishing
D、appreciating
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据题目中的描述,学习在混乱的交通中跳舞需要依靠感觉,这是一种结合意图、时机和信任的组合。因此,正确答案是“astonishing”(令人惊奇的),因为它与感觉有关,并强调了这种技能的复杂性和挑战性。选项A“following”(跟随)和选项B“considering”(考虑)都与感觉不太相关,选项D“appreciating”(欣赏)虽然与感觉有关,但不如“astonishing”准确地表达了这种技能的本质。
