saidofnothing,butimmediately[BIO]copiedtheactionofhisguest.And

that,saidthissecondperson,wasafineexampleofgoodmanners.

32、[Bl]

標準答案：將。n改為by

知識點解析："bytheway"作"根據方式"講，例如：Iwasdeeplyhurtbytheway

shejustignoredme.她根本不理睬我，這深深刺痛「我的心。而短語ontheway則

作”在去...的路上“講，例如：Thatistheessenceofscience：askanimpertinent

question,andyouareonthewaytothepertinentanswer.科學的本質是：提出一個

不恰當的問題，于是你便走上了通往恰當答案的道路。

33、[B2]

標準答案：將unaware改為aware

知識點解析：根據下文中的"Suchpeopleneverbumpintootherpeople",我們就可肯

定這種人不會"目中無人"。beawareof作"意識到，感覺到"講，例如：Agoodway

ofriddingyourselfofcertainkindsofdogmatismistobecomeawareofopinionsheldin

socialcirclesdifferentfromyourown.擺脫某些武斷看法的一種好辦注就是設法/

解一下別的社會圈子中的人們所持有的種種看法。

34、[B3]

標準答案：將as改為ihan

知識點解析："more+adj./of+n.+than”是固定結構。例如：Ilovewisdommorethan

shelovesme.我愛智慧勝于智慧愛我。Awisemanwillmakemoreopportunitiesthan

hefinds.聰明人能夠發現機會，更能夠創造機會。

35、[B4]

標準答案：將it改為which

知識點解析：原句是由兩個既不是并列關系也不是從屬關系的句子構成，這是不符

合英語語法的。可將it改為which,讓which在此引導一個非限制性定語從句，

which在從句中作主語。需要注意的是，在從句中hesaid是插入語。

36、[B5]

標準答案：將at改為in

知識點解析：名詞thecountry前要用介詞in,例如：【livedinsolitudeinthecountry

andnoticedhowthemonotonyofaquietlifestimulatesthecreativemind.我無親無伴

地居住在這個國度，終于發現寧靜寂寞的生活是多么能夠激發頭腦的創造性。

37、[B6]

標準答案：將hasn,t改為hadn't

知識點解析：根據上文我們可以看出這里需要使用過去完成時。

38、[B7]

標準答案：將American改為Arab

知識點解析：根據上文，我們可以看出，這里講述的是一位赴“阿拉伯”傳統宴會的

“美國人”的故事，而不是赴“美國”傳統宴會的“美國人”的故事。

39、[B8]

標準答案：將as改為like

知識點解析:介詞as意為“作為"，like意為“像“，根據句意,此處應用介詞like。

再例如：Itisdesirableattimesforideastopossessacertainroughness,likedrawings

onheavy-grainpaper.Thoughtshavingthisqualityaremostlikelytomatchthetexture

ofactualexperience.思想有時需要某種粗糙，正如繪畫需要用粗紋紙一樣。具有

這種品質而思想最有可能與實際經驗的本質相適應。Ifyouwishtosucceed,you

shouldusepersistenceasyourgoodfriend,experienceasyourreference,prudenceas

yourbrotherandhopeasyoursentry.如果你希望成功，當以恒心為良友、以經驗為

參謀、以謹慎為兄弟、以希望為哨兵。

40、［B9］

標準答案：將falls改為fell

知識點解析：根據上下文我們可以看出，這里要使用一般過去時。

41、［B10］

標準答案：將o「刪掉

知識點解析：say作及物動詞，后可直接跟名詞作賓語,Wifl：Itisagoodtongue

thatsaysnoill,andabelterheartthatthinksnone.干凈的嘴不說壞話。善良的心不

想壞事。Wisementalkbecausetheyhavesomethingtosay；fools,becausetheyhave

tosaysomething.明智的人因為有話要說才說話，愚蠢的人則為了要說話才說話。

42、夜是靜寂的，柔和的。從對面我聽呸見一點聲音。香港似乎閉了它的大口。

介是當我注意到那一座光芒萬丈的星的山的時候，我又仿佛聽見那許多燈光的私語

了。因為船的移動。燈光也似乎移動起來。而且電車汽車上的燈也在飛跑。我看見

它們時明時暗，就像人在眨眼。或者像它們在追逐，在說話。我的視覺和聽覺混合

起來。我仿佛在用眼睛聽了。那一座星的山并不是沉默的，在那里正奏著偉大的交

響樂。

標準答案：Tranquilityandpeacereignedthenight.Notasoundcouldbeheardfrom

AndIwillbeglobalwhetherthereisaWorldTradeOrganizationagreementornot.

標準答案：什么叫全球化?簡而答之，全球化就是所有事物的融合。更為完整的定

義是這樣的：全球化就是市場、金融和技術的融合，它使得世界從中等規模縮至

小規模。無論我們住在哪里，全球化使得我們每一個人能比以前更深入，更快捷、

更便宜地接觸到世界的每一處，同時也讓世界比以前更深入、更快捷、更便宜地觸

及我們的生活。我相信這個過程完全是由技術推動的。在戰略理論中有這樣一個

概念，說能力產生意圖。換言之，如果你給人們B—52型轟炸機，他們就會找到

B—52型轟炸機的用途。這個概念在考慮全球化時也是非常有用的。如果我有一部

手機，能接通世界上180個不同的國家，而且價格相同，那么我就確實會向180個

不同的國家打電話。如果我能接上因特網，能在網上做生意，而我的供應商、顧客

和競爭對手都是全球性的，那么我也將是全球性的，而且無論是否有世貿總協定，

我都會是全球性的。

知識點解析：這是一篇關于是否應該到美國留學的議論文，關于這個問題，有兩

種不同的看法：有人認為學生應在國內學習；有些認為赴美留學更有益。本題要求

考生談談這兩種情況各芻的優點，并說明自己認為哪種學習方法更好。這個題目對

每個考生來說都是熟題，但每個人都有自己的想法，有些想法不宜明言，例如生活

標準問題，依賴獎學金或打工助學問題，移民問題等。文章應從正面談，圍繞學習

本身，學習環境和學習費用等問題進行分析。根據題目要求，重點應放在兩種情況

的有利方面。不利的方面也要談，但只應在比較的過程中談，目的是得出結論，為

自己的觀點服務。既然大部分考生都想能到外國學習深造，應該取何種觀點不言而

喻，文中可明確表達。從范文來看,文章認為留學較好，但這個觀點沒有在前面

表達，而是放在了最后一段，同時，文章的觀點并非簡單的贊同或反對，避免了絕

對化。具體寫法與分段如下：第一段：敘述情況，指出各有優點；第二段：赴美

學習的有利一面；第三段：在本國國內學習的有利一面；第四段：指出應在國內打

基礎，然后到美國深造，同時表示決心。
