一、Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)
Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
The multi-billion-dollar Western pop music industry is under fire. It is being blamed by the United Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwide. “The most worrying development is a culture of drug-friendliness,”says the UN's International Narcotics Control Board in a report released last year.
The 74-page study says that pop music, as a global industry, is by far the most influential trend-setter for young people of most cultures.“Some songs encourage people to take drugs. (76) Certain pop stars make statements and set examples as if the use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes were a normal and acceptable part of a person's lifestyle,”the study says.
Surprisingly, says the Board, the effect of drug-friendly pop music seems to survive despite the occasional shock of death by overdose (过量用药). “Such incidents tend to be seen as an occasion to mourn (哀悼) the loss of a role model, and not an opportunity to face the deadly effect of drug use,”it notes. Since the 1970s, several internationally famous singers and movie stars--including Elvis Presley, Janice Joplin, John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, Jonathan Melvin and Andy Gibbs--have died of either drug abuse or drug related illnesses. With the globalization of popular music, messages promoting drug abuse are now reaching beyond their countries of origin. “In most countries, the names of certain POP stars have become familiar to the members of every household,”the study says.
The UN study also blames the media for its description of certain drug incidents, which encourages rather than prevents drag abuse. “Over the past years, we have seen how drug abuse is increasingly regarded as being acceptable or even attractive,”says Hamid Ghodse, president of the Board. “Powerful pressure groups run political campaigns aimed at legalizing controlled drugs,”he says. Ghodse also points out that all these developments have created an environment which is tolerant(容忍

2、The expression “under fire”? in the first paragraph means______.
A、in an urgent situation
B、facing some problems
C、being criticized
D、in trouble
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：根据题目中的句子“It is being blamed by the United Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwide.”可以推断出，这里的“under fire”指的是被批评或指责。因此，选项C“being criticized”符合题意。其他选项A“in an urgent situation”表示处于紧急状态，B“facing some problems”表示面临一些问题，D“in trouble”表示处于困境，都不符合句意。

Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. A little-known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.
It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries. For example, it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.
What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk? (77) One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live. the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability( 残疾). Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.
(78) Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society. In some African countries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.
Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination (歧视) in employment. Life-long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development.
Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes ar
6、The proportion of older people__ .

Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
(79) Extensive new studies suggest that the world has made extraordinary progress in reducing poverty in recent decades. The research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid and continued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and economic liberalization (自由化) after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the Institute for International Economics in Washington, finds that the proportion of the 6.1 billion people in the world who live on $1 a day or less shrank from 63 percent in 1950 to 35 percent in 1980 and 12 percent in 1999. By some other measures, the progress has been more modest. Still, economists agree that poverty has plunged in key nations such as India and especially China, thanks to slowing population growth as well as economic freedom. “This is a huge success for the world as a whole,”says Harvard University economist Richard Cooper. “We are doing something right.”
The news comes as the World Bank is about to open its annual meeting in Washington-an event that has been troubled in recent years by protests that the Bank and its sister institution, the International Monetary Fund (IMF国际货币基金组织), have done too little for the world's poor. (80) The new economic research will not put an end to that dispute. Vast populations remain poor, and many still question the wisdom of World Bank policies. Nonetheless, the research findings are helpful to understand what policies should be followed by those institutions and hundreds of other development groups working very hard to hasten the pace of world economic progress. If dramatic gains are under way, the present policies-- calling for open markets, free business activities, and tight monetary control--are working and correct..
But critics of IMF and World Bank policies maintain that such economic success stories as Japan, China, South Korea and Singapore are rooted in more than just “free” markets. These nations have managed to grow rapidly, and thereby reduce poverty, by limiting imports when their domestic
11、The word “plunged” in the first paragraph means______.
A、decreased
B、climbed
C、increased
D、dropped into water
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：在给出的文本中，“The research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid and continued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and economic liberalization (自由化) after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the Institute for International Economics in Washington, finds that the proportion of the 6.1 billion people in the world who live on $1 a day or less shrank from 63 percent in 1950 to 35 percent in 1980 and 12 percent in 1999.”这段话描述了经济进步的步伐迅速且持续了几十年，建立在相对政治稳定、贸易增长和经济自由化（自由化）的基础上。并且提到一项新的研究发现，生活在一天一美元或以下的人数比例从1950年的63%降至1980年的35%，再到1999年的12%。由此可以推断出，“plunged”在此处的意思是“减少”或“降低”，因此选项A“减少了”是正确的。

四、Part IV Cloze (10%)
Part IV Cloze (10%)
Of all the websites, one that has attracted attention recently is myspace.com. Most of this attention has come from the media and tells every reason 56 the website should be 57. The threat of Internet predators (窃掠者) is indeed a tough reality, 58 shutting down the site is not the answer. If myspace.com 59 shut down, another site would quickly 60 its place. Therefore, the right way is to teach teens how to use the site safely and educate them 61 who may be predators and how to 62 them.
The key to 63 safe on the Internet is to make sure that your profile (个人资料)is secure. The 64 way is to change the privacy setting on your profile to “private”, which protects your information 65 only the people on your friend list can view it. Although this is 66 , it is not perfect. Predators can find ways to view your profile if they really want to，67 through hacking in (黑客入侵) or figuring out their way onto your friend list. Thus, you should never post too much personal 68. Some people actually post their home and school addresses, date of birth, and so on, often 69 predators know exactly where they will be and 70 .
The most information that is safe is your first name and province. Anything more is basically 71 a predator into your life.
Another big problem is photos. I suggest 72 skipping photos and never posting a photo of a friend online without his or her 73.
Most important, never, 74 any circumstances, agree to a real-life meeting with anyone you meet online, 75 how well you think you know this person. There are no guarantees that they have told the truth.
56、( 56 )
A、what
B、how
C、why
D、which
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：在题干中，问题要求选择一个适当的选项填入空白处，以完成句子的意义。从题目中我们可以看到，问题询问的是网站吸引媒体注意的原因，即“为什么”。根据选项，我们可以逐一分析：
A. what - 这意味着“什么”，但在这个上下文中，它并不符合逻辑，因为媒体关注网站的原因并不是“什么”，而是“为什么”。
B. how - 这意味着“如何”，但同样不符合逻辑，因为媒体关注网站的原因并不是“如何”，而是“为什么”。
C. why - 这意味着“为什么”，符合逻辑，因为媒体关注网站的原因正是因为网站存在问题或值得关注的理由。
D. which - 这意味着“哪一个”，显然不符合逻辑，因为问题并不是在询问哪一个原因，而是在询问原因本身。
因此，根据上下文和选项的分析，我们可以得出结论，正确答案是C，即“why”。
57、( 57 )
A、shut down
B、open up
C、get into
D、turn on
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：在上下文中，问题是在描述一个网站，并提到了关于该网站的安全性问题。其中一个建议是如何使用网站安全地，以及如何教育用户识别潜在的“捕食者”并避免他们。在描述关闭网站作为解决方案时，原文说“关闭网站并不是答案”，这意味着网站应该保持开放。因此，正确答案是“A. shut down（关闭）”，因为它与关闭网站的建议相反，即网站应该保持开放。其他选项，如“B. open up（打开）”、“C. get into（陷入）”和“D. turn on（打开）”都不符合上下文的语境。
58、( 58 )
A、but
B、even
C、despite
D、since
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：题干中提到“the threat of Internet predators is indeed a tough reality”，即网络掠食者的威胁确实是一个严酷的现实，但“shutting down the site is not the answer”，即关闭网站并不是解决问题的办法。因此，需要一个转折词来连接前后两句，表示尽管存在网络掠食者的威胁，但关闭网站并不是解决问题的办法。选项A中的“but”表示转折，符合题意。选项B的“even”表示递进，选项C的“despite”也表示转折，但不如“but”常用。选项D的“since”表示原因，与题意不符。因此，正确答案是A。
59、( 59 )
A、is
B、are
C、was
D、were
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：根据句子结构和语境，空格处需要填入一个动词，表示“myspace.com”的状态。句子中提到“If myspace.com 59...shut down, another site would quickly 60 its place.”，可以推断出“myspace.com”的状态是复数形式，且需要使用被动语态，表示“myspace.com”被关闭。因此，选项D“were”符合语境，表示复数形式的被动语态。选项A“is”是单数形式，选项B“are”是复数形式但表示主动语态，选项C“was”是单数形式的过去式，都不符合语境。
60、( 60 )
A、get
B、make
C、take
D、push
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：题目中提到"If myspace.com (60) /nA get/nB make/nC take/nD push"，其中“make”在这里并不符合逻辑，因为网站不可能“make”自己关闭。而“get”和“push”也不符合语境。只有“take”符合逻辑，表示“采取关闭的行动”。因此，正确答案是C，“take”。
61、( 61 )
A、as
B、about
C、for
D、in
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：本题考察的是固定搭配。句子中提到了“another site would quickly __ its place”，根据语境可知，此处应该填入“about”表示“占据……的位置”，因此选项B“about”是正确的。选项A“as”表示“作为”，不符合语境；选项C“for”表示“为了”，也不符合语境；选项D“in”表示“在……里面”，也不符合语境。因此，正确答案是B。
62、( 62 )
A、avoid
B、get
C、benefit
D、hide
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：根据题目中的语境，空格处需要填入一个动词，表示如何避免互联网上的危险。选项中只有"avoid"符合语境，表示避免的意思，而其他选项的含义与题目不符。因此，答案为A。
63、( 63 )
A、stay
B、be staying
C、stayed
D、staying
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：本题是一道考察虚拟语气的题目，句子中使用了“The key to”结构，表示“做某事的关键是”，后面应该接动名词形式，表示“做某事的关键是保持做某事”。而根据句意，此处应该表示“保持安全的关键是确保你的个人资料是安全的”，因此应该使用动名词的ing形式，即“staying”。选项D中的“staying”符合语法和句意，因此是正确答案。
64、( 64 )
A、difficult
B、simplest
C、simple
D、most difficult
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：在文章中提到，保护个人资料的最好方式是将隐私设置改为“私人”，这样只有朋友列表上的人才能查看。因此，最简单的方式是更改隐私设置，选项B最简单符合语境。
65、( 65 )
A、as to
B、no matter
C、so that
D、because
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：此题考查连词的选择。在句子“which protects your information __ only the people on your friend list can view it.”中，空格后的“only the people on your friend list can view it”是一个结果，而空格前是原因，所以应该使用“so that”表示“以便，为了”。因此，正确答案为C。
66、( 66 )
A、efficient
B、interesting
C、effective
D、impressive
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：根据上下文，这段文字是在讨论如何安全地使用社交网站，特别是myspace.com。在提到保护个人信息时，作者建议将个人资料设置为“私人”，以保护信息仅对朋友列表上的人可见。虽然这是有效的，但作者也指出，如果捕食者真的想查看你的个人资料，他们可能会通过黑客入侵或找到方法进入你的朋友列表。因此，你不应该发布太多个人信息，因为任何额外的信息基本上都会让捕食者进入你的生活。因此，正确答案是“effective”（有效的）。
67、( 67 )
A、if
B、whether
C、however
D、whatever
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：本空前面的句子提到，即使你改变个人资料的隐私设置，使只有你的朋友可以看到你的资料，但是仍然会有被黑客入侵或者找到进入你朋友列表的方法。因此，尽管这是一种保护措施，但并不完美。这里需要一个表示“是否”的选项，所以正确答案是B。
68、( 68 )
A、information
B、documents
C、files
D、messages
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：根据题目中的语境，这里提到的是“不要发布太多个人信息”，所以应该选择“信息”，而不是“文档”、“文件”或“消息”。因此，正确答案是“A”。
69、( 69 )
A、let
B、make
C、allow
D、letting
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：根据题目中的语境，句子中提到了“常常让捕食者知道他们在哪里”，其中“常常”表示一种习惯或频繁的行为，而“让”表示使某件事情发生，符合“常常让捕食者知道他们在哪里”的语境。因此，选项D“letting”符合语境，是正确答案。其他选项如“A let”表示“让”，但不符合“常常”的语境；“B make”表示“使”，不符合“让”的语境；“C allow”表示“允许”，也不符合语境。
70、( 70 )
A、what
B、why
C、when
D、how
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：句子中提到“predators know exactly where they will be and ...”，所以需要一个词来连接“where they will be”和后面的内容，表示“知道他们会在哪里，以及……”。选项C中的“when”表示“什么时候”，符合语境，因此是正确答案。其他选项a what（什么）、b why（为什么）、d how（怎么样）都不符合语境。
71、( 71 )
A、introducing
B、inviting
C、investing
D、interrupting
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：在题目中，句子提到“Anything more is basically inviting a predator into your life.”，意思是“任何更多的信息基本上是在邀请掠食者进入你的生活。”，因此，空格处应该填入一个表示“邀请”的动词。选项A“introducing”表示“介绍”，选项C“investing”表示“投资”，选项D“interrupting”表示“打断”，均不符合句意。选项B“inviting”表示“邀请”，符合句意，因此选B。
72、( 72 )
A、partly
B、mostly
C、lastly
D、completely
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：在题目中，句子“I suggest (72) skipping photos and never posting a photo of a friend online without his or her (73).”表明作者建议完全跳过照片，并且不要在没有得到朋友同意的情况下发布朋友的照片。因此，正确答案是“完全地”，即选项D。
73、( 73 )
A、favor
B、rule
C、information
D、permission
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：在文中提到“I suggest skipping photos and never posting a photo of a friend online without his or her permission.”（我建议跳过照片，并且不要在没有得到朋友许可的情况下发布他的照片。）因此，正确答案是D，即“permission”（许可）。
74、( 74 )
A、above
B、under
C、below
D、at
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：题干中提到“never, _______ any circumstances, agree to a real-life meeting with anyone you meet online”，这句话的意思是“在任何情况下，都不要同意与网上认识的人进行现实生活中的见面”。因此，空格处需要填入一个副词，表示“在任何情况下”。选项B“under”表示“在……之下”，不符合语境；选项C“below”表示“在……之下”，也不符合语境；选项D“at”表示“在……时刻”，也不符合语境。只有选项A“above”表示“在……之上”，符合语境，表示“在任何情况下”。因此，正确答案是B。
75、( 75 )
A、no matter
B、even if
C、unless
D、also
解析：【喵呜刷题小喵解析】：根据题目中的语境，句子表达的是“无论在任何情况下，都不要同意与在网上认识的人进行线下见面”，因此应该选择“no matter”表示“无论”。选项B“even if”表示“即使”，与句意不符；选项C“unless”表示“除非”，与句意相反；选项D“also”表示“也”，不符合句意。因此，正确答案是A。
五、Part Ⅴ Translation (20%)
76、Certain pop stars make statements and set examples as if the use of drags for non-medicinal purposes were a normal and acceptable part of a person's lifestyle...
解析：某些流行歌星发表声明，树立榜样，仿佛把拖拽用于非医疗目的是一个人生活方式中正常和可接受的一部分……
77、One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live, the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability (残疾).
参考答案：政府最大的担忧之一是，人们寿命越长，患疾病和残疾的可能性就越大(残疾).
解析：【喵呜刷题小u解析】：这句话主要表达了政府对于人们寿命延长可能带来的健康问题的担忧。随着人们寿命的延长，患疾病和残疾的可能性也会增加，这会给政府带来更大的医疗负担和社会压力。因此，政府需要制定相关政策和措施，以应对这一挑战。
78、Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society.

解析：新的经济研究不会结束这场争论。
81、今天早上他起床晚了，所以没有赶上火车。
参考答案：He got up late this morning, so he missed the train.
解析：【喵呜刷题小u解析】：
在这个句子中，我们需要把中文的句子准确地翻译成英文。中文句子中的“他”指的是某个人，英文中常用代词“he”来表示。中文中的“起床晚了”被翻译为“got up late”，而“没有赶上火车”则被翻译为“missed the train”。因此，整个句子被翻译为“He got up late this morning, so he missed the train.”，意思是“他今天早上起床晚了，所以没有赶上火车。”。
82、你们昨天的会议得出什么结论了吗?
参考答案：Did you come to any conclusions from yesterday's meeting?
解析：【喵呜刷题小u解析】：
根据题目要求，需要回答关于昨天会议得出的结论的问题。题目询问的是昨天会议的结果，所以答案应该是一个问句，询问对方是否得出了结论。在英文中，这种问句的表达方式通常为“Did you come to any conclusions from yesterday's meeting?”。因此，这是一个符合题目要求的回答。
83、我在回家的路上，买了一本英汉词典。
参考答案：I bought an English Chinese dictionary on my way home.
解析：【喵呜刷题小u解析】：在这个问题中，需要回答的是“我在回家的路上，买了一本英汉词典。”这句话的英文表达。英文表达中，“I”代表“我”，“bought”表示“买了”，“an English Chinese dictionary”表示“一本英汉词典”，“on my way home”表示“在回家的路上”。因此，整句话的英文表达为“I bought an English Chinese dictionary on my way home.”。
84、一直到12月下旬，他们才让我加入他们小组。
参考答案：It wasn't until late December that they let me join their group.
解析：【喵呜刷题小u解析】：这个句子是一个简单句，主要讲述了“他们”让“我”加入他们小组的时间是在12月下旬。为了将中文句子准确地翻译为英文，我们需要关注中文句子的结构和含义。在这个句子中，“一直到12月下旬”表示在某个时间点之后，即“他们”才让“我”加入他们小组，因此使用了“It wasn't until...that...”的句型来表达这个含义。同时，将“他们”和“我”分别翻译为“they”和“me”，将“小组”翻译为“group”，并将时间状语“12月下旬”翻译为“late December”，保证了译文的准确性。
85、我父亲在找工作，我母亲在医院照看外祖母。
参考答案：My father is looking for a job, while my mother is taking care of my grandmother in the hospital.
解析：【喵呜刷题小u解析】：这个句子翻译的主要点在于准确传达原文的含义，同时保持语法正确和语义流畅。原句中的“在找工作”被翻译为“job hunting”，这是一种常见的英语表达方式，意思是“寻找工作机会”。而“在医院照看外祖母”被翻译为“taking care of our grandmother in the hospital”，其中“our grandmother”指的是“外祖母”，因为“外祖母”在家庭关系中通常指的是母亲的母亲，所以使用“our”来强调这种家庭关系。整个句子的结构清晰，语义准确，符合英语表达习惯。
