答案及解析
36. D。她从教师工作上退了下来，然而她一直很忙。B项有一定干扰性。keep rich意思是“富有”，从后文she was even willing to work without pay．可以看出B项不合题意。
37. A。从空后的that helped other businesses find jobs for old people．可以看出，她提供的是商业服务。
38. B。从空后的By talking with them可以看出，Anna Douglas每天都与很多老年人会面，而不是观察或安慰他们。
39. A。通过与他们交谈，她认识到两件事情。接下来的两句便是她认识到的事情。recognize在这里是“认识到”的意思。
40. D。老年人有未被利用的能力。这是她积极为老年人找工作发挥他们余热的原因。其他答案不合题意。
41. B。然而老年人也有老年人的问题。A项有较大干扰性。从后文我们知道，有一位老年人不受其孙子女的欢迎，这是他面临的问题，而不是错误。
42. D。从后文She began to write a newspaper column called“Sixty Plus”，我们知道，她为国家杂志写人物故事是以前的事。
43. A。联系上下文Old people like herself．是报纸的一个话题（subject），因此其它选项不合题意。
44. A。get old在这里为系表结构，其它选项不正确。
45. C。B，D项有较大干扰性。作者举的例子说明很多老年人被其孙子女误解，而不是（他们的要求）被拒绝等。
46. A。从空后的see the truth behind a problem我们得知，Anna Douglas用的是 thinking abilities。
47. C。从下文举的例子看，她明白的是事情的起因，因此其它选项不合题意。
48. B。A项有较大干扰性。从前文我们知道Anna Douglas是靠写文章与老年人交流，而不是建立了咨询中心，因此A项不合题意。
49. C。联系上下文我们可以推知，这位老年人与其孙子女关系并不融洽，因此当他进来时，孩子们就离开。
50. C。她给这位老人建议了几种方法。
51. B。A，C有较大干扰性。从空后的 your grandchildren's world我们得知，想了解孙子女世界的一切是不可能的。
52. A。本空承接and前的分句而来，因此答案应在questioning和listening间选择，选项中没有questioning。
53. B。联系上文Say good things to them and about them．得此答案。A项有一定干扰性，空前的Never决定了此选项不正确。
54. D。stick to在这里是“固执地坚持”。A，B均有一定干扰性。联系前文Mrs Douglas认为老人应该多听听孙子女的见解，不要太固执地坚持自己的看法。 speak out意思是“说出”，give up是“放弃”，因此不合题意。
55. A。D有较大干扰性。Naturally意思是“自然而然地”，而Commonly指“通常情况下”。

  What would life be like without television? Would you spend more time  36  , reading, or studying? Well, now it’s your chance to turn off your TV and  37  ! TV-Turnoff Week is here.
  The goal of TV-Turnoff Week is to let people leave their TV sets  38   and participate in activities  39   drawing to biking. The event was founded by TV-Turnoff Network, a non-profit organization which started the event in 1995. In the  40  , only a few thousand people took part. Last year more than 7.6 million people participated,  41   people in every state in America and in more than 12 other countries! This is the 11th year in which  42   are asking people to “turn off the TV and turn on  43  .”
  According to the TV-Turnoff Network, the average  44   in the US spend  45   time in front of the TV (about 1,023 hours per year) than they do in school (about 900 hours per year). Too much TV  46   has made many kids grow fat.  47  , in 2001’s TV-Turnoff Week, US Surgeon General David Satcher said, “We are raising the most  48   generation of youngsters in American history. This week is about saving lives.”
  Over the years, studies have shown that watching a lot of TV  49   poor eating habits, too little exercise, and violence. Frank Vespe of the TV-Turnoff Network said that turning off the TV “is or  50  , part of a healthy lifestyle”.
  “One of the great lessons of  51   TV-Turnoff Week is the realization that  52   I turn on the TV, I’m deciding not to do something else,” Vespe said.
  TV-Turnoff Week seems to be making a  53   . Recent US Census（人口普查）data  54   that about 72 percent of kids under 12 have a limit on their TV time. That’s  55   about 63 percent ten years ago.
36. A. drinking   B. sleeping  C. washing  D. playing outside
37. A. find out   B. go out   C. look out  D. keep out
38. A. away   B. alone   C. on   D. beside
39. A. like   B. as   C. from   D. such as
40. A. end   B. event   C. beginning  D. total
41. A. besides   B. except for  C. including  D. except
42. A. governments  B. parents  C. organizers  D. businessmen
43. A. the light   B. the radio  C. life   D. the Internet
44. A. grown-ups  B. kids   C. clerks   D. parents
45. A. less   B. enough  C. little   D. more

36．根据上下文考查合适的动名词。从文章大意可知是希望人们有健康的生活方式，参加一些activities(第二小节中)，因此选playing outside最合适。后面的reading和studying都是室内活动。
37．根据上下文考查合适的动词。上文提出了一个问题，所以选find out“发现、找到（答案）”。
38．根据上下文考查意义正确的搭配。leave…off“关掉”，这是leave复合宾语结构。
39．考查搭配。由后文的to，可见这里只能填from。
40．根据上下文考查合适的词组。这两句话讲的是参与这个活动的人数的变化，因此先说的是“一开始”in the beginning。
41．根据上下文考查意义正确的词。这句话是对前一句话的补充说明，根据后文的and in more than 12 other countries可见是对所有参与者的一个说明，用including“包括”。
42．考查符合上下文的名词。进一步陈述组织者的目的。
43．考查符合文章中心思想的词义选择。组织者的目的就是希望人们有健康的生活方式，用turn on life“点亮生活”很形象地阐明了中心。
44．考查符合上下文的名词。下文的数据明显是针对学生而言，因此用kids。
45．根据上下文提供的数据，当然看电视的时间更多。
46．考查符合上下文的词。这里表示“看电视过多”。
47．考查符合上下文的关联词。下文是对上文作更具体的说明，in fact“实际上”。
48．根据上文的grow fat，这里应该是overweight“超体重的”。overeating“吃得过多”是导致肥胖的一个方面（还有缺乏锻炼），“成长过快的”overgrown和“监督”overseeing不合文意。
49．根据上下文及搭配考查合适的动词词组。从逻辑上看首先排除result from“由于”、keep away“不接触”，再根据后面的too little exercise, and violence从搭配上排除develops。
50．根据中心思想，组织者认为从道理上说这样做“应该是”健康生活的一部分。
51．从下文来看Vespe是作为一个电视观众，即一个参与本次活动的参与者，讲自己的体会，而不是一个组织者，因此选taking part in，而participate后面需要加in。
52．结合句意考查名词引导的时间状语从句。从主句的现在进行时，可以判断选every time“每次”最合适。而every day后面要加when，this time“这次”不合题意。
53．结合上下文考查固定搭配。“产生了影响”make a difference。
54．根据句意考查名词与动词搭配。下文不是列举data“数据”具体是多少，所以不能用says或reads，应该用shows表示数据说明的情况。
55．根据上下文考查词义。从前后数字来看是在63 percent的基础上的上升，选up from。

    The annual marathon in my town usually occurred during a heat wave . My job was to  36     
behind the runners in an ambulance   37     any of them needed medical attention . The driver and I were in an air-conditioned ambulance behind approximately one hundred athletes    38    to hear the sharp crack of the starting gun .
“We’re supposed to stay behind the   39     runner , so take it slowly ,” I said to the driver , Doug , as we began to creep forward .
“Let’s    40    hope all the runners are fast !” he laughed .
As they began to pace themselves , the front runners started to    41    . It was then that my   42     were drawn to the woman in blue silk running shorts and a baggy white T-shirt .
“Koug , look !”
We knew we were already watching our “last runner” . Her feet were turned in , yet her left knee was turned out . Her legs were so crippled and    43    that it seemed impossible for her to be able to walk , let alone run a marathon .
Doug and I watched in   44     as she slowly moved forward . We didn’t say a thing . We would move forward a little bit , then stop and wait for her to    45    some distance . Then we’d slowly move forward a little bit more .
Finally , she was the   46     runner left in sight . Tears streamed down my face as I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with awe , amazement and even reverence (敬意) as she   47     forward with sheer determination through the last miles .
When the    48    line came into sight , trash (垃圾) lay everywhere and the   49     crowds had long gone home    50    , standing straight and ever so proud waited a man . He was    51    one end of a ribbon (带子) of crepe paper tied to a post .   52    slowly crossed through , leaving both ends of the paper fluttering behind her .
I do not    53    this woman’s name , but that day she became a part of my life –a part I often depend on . For her , it wasn’t about    54    the other runners or winning a trophy (奖品),it was about finishing what she had set out to do , no matter    55    . When I think things are too difficult or too time-consuming , I get those “ I-just-can’t-do-it” , I think of the last runner . Then I realize how easy the task before me really is .

42．D  甚至当“我”去和朋友们打篮球时，男孩们也盯着“我”看(不理解)，就好像“我”是个外星人似的。用stare at表示“盯着”。glare指“怒视”，不妥。glance指“瞥一眼”。根据语境，文中要表达的意息应是其他男孩不解地盯着自己。
43．B 学校不谁、家庭不让、男孩不理解使“我”打篮球的梦想根本无法实现，“我”感到心情沮丧。feel down引申为“感觉沮丧的”。
44．C  下文交待“我”新交的朋友鼓励“我”重新回到篮球场，这一转机在当时是无法预料的，故填Unexpectedly．
45．A  他们鼓励“我’回到篮球场。
46．B  走你自己的路，让别人去说吧。
47．A  本文话题是篮球与女生，因此该空应填basketball。
48．D  在朋友们的鼓励与引导下，自信、激情又回到“我”心中。
49．C
50．B  篮球已变成“我”生命的一部分。
51．C  通过篮球，我不但感到幸福、自信，而且还学到很多东西。
52．A “我”逐渐意识到生活就像打篮球。

I would like to suggest that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening all television broadcasting in the United States be forbidden by law.
Let us take a  36  , reasonable look at what the results might be if such a(an)  37  were accepted; families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction(困扰) of TV, they might   38  together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our  39  —everything in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of  40  illness —are caused at least in part by  41  to communicate. By using the quiet family hour to  42  our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better.
On evenings when such talk is  43  , families could discover more active pastimes（消遣，娱乐）. Freed from TV, forced to find their own activities, they might take a   44  together to watch the sunset  45  they might take a walk together.  46  free time and no TV, children and adults might discover reading. There is more entertainment in  47  than in a TV program.  48  report that the generation growing up with television can hardly write an English sentence,  49  at the college level.  50  is often learned from reading. A more literate new generation could be a product of the quiet hour.
A different  51  of reading might also be done as it was in the past: reading aloud. The quiet hour could become the story hour. When the  52  ends, the TV net works might be forced to  53  with better shows in order to get us back from our newly discovered activities.
At first glance, this idea seems radical（激进的）. How will we spend the time then? The fact is: it has been only twenty-five years  54  television came to control American free time. Those of us thirty-five and older can  55  childhoods without television. It wasn’t that difficult.

Learning experiences happen to us throughout our lives . Not long ago , I had one that I would like to     36     with you .
I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team . The team was racing down the highway at 85 mph     37     we realized we were    38      . Luckily , we saw a rest area ahead . I had a brand –new $ 20 bill . I was so    39     because I had never had that kind of cash before . But spending it on    40   seemed like throwing it away . We all rushed into the pizza line .
41    , I got a pizza and a drink , and walked to my table . About halfway through the meal , I      42    I had not actually handed my money to the cashier . I had just    43      out , and nobody had noticed . I felt terrible .
My conscience (良心) opened its mouth and swallowed me in one big bite . I couldn’t   44 
over it . I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and    45      for my stolen pizza . I was so upset that I     46     to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream for    47      that someone would say , “Hey , Jeff , why don’t you use the change     48     the pizza instead of that nice , new $ 20 bill ?” I was not so    49      of my cash now .
For the next two years , whenever I was    50      of the “pizza incident,” I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it .”
I have learned two things from this    51      . Maybe I was a fool for    52      in to my conscience , and being too stupid to appreciate a    53      pizza . But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done , your conscience will    54      up with you .
This reflects the saying , “A coward (懦夫) dies a thousand deaths , a hero dies one.” I was a coward and have felt terrible about that accident at least a thousand times . If I had been a    55   and gone back to pay for the pizza , I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once , or maybe twice .

       Mary Kimble-Smith was an ordinary 12-year-old girl; ordinary, that is, in every way _36_one .She suddenly started to walk in her sleep. No one knew why this happened. The best guess _37_ to be that it represents _38_: the sleep-walker is worried. This feeling normally remains under control during _39_ hours, but at night, when the mind is in a _40_ passive mode, it _41_ to the surface and shows itself in the _42_ of physical movement.
    At first, her family _43_ help from just about every doctor they could find. But _44_ of them were able to suggest a means _45_ which she could be cured. Then her parents were frightened, and they tried to wake her up. _46_, the general advice is that we _47_ not wake a sleepwalker. _48_ follows the idea that sleepwalker derives from some deep anxiety. To wake a person and bring them to a _49_ realization that they are not where they thought they were could _50_ the feelings of anxiety and perhaps _51_ reinforce(强化)the habit.
    Most sleepwalkers at last stop _52_ any warning--- they  _53_ do it again. In Mary’s case _54_ , she started sleep-walking soon after her twelfth birthday and was still doing it the day _55_ she died in 1989, at the age of 93.

    The Ministry of Education has spared no efforts to bring on IT learning. What is its main aim? Is it to teach students how to learn the computer or is it meant to change the usual method of teaching in order to   36   students’ strong interest in computers?
    Teaching students computer knowledge and skills is different   37   giving class lessons through the use of computers. And schools are beginning to pay much attention to using computers to teach students. There is   38   about the fact that IT learning plays an important role as a new teaching tool in this day of technology.   39 ,  views differ on whether the schools can achieve their targets, as success   40   whether they can make use of computers effectively.
    Let’s take the subject of Chinese as an example and see   41   difficulties the experts face in their IT management. At present, 20 percent of lessons are given with the help of computers. In other words, in a period of 10 weeks, a Chinese － language teacher must spend two weeks to teach the subject   42   . In carrying out such a major policy as IT learning, the experts should know   43   that different teachers teaching different subjects have different demands, thus making it   44   to see the policy through.
    Some teachers, having already got some computer knowledge, will still be forced to   45   the training courses with those who have zero knowledge about computer.
    Another problem is that new teachers may be sent to work in schools   46   IT learning has just started. All teachers － including the seniors who are very   47   in teaching, who suddenly have no idea what to do when it comes to computers, will have to   48   from the very beginning. They will become   49   and their teaching performances may be badly affected.
    The experts have found out how much of each subject is taught by computers in every school, and have   50   all school to complete the given work. A hard － pressed teacher may put the daily teaching    51   or the courses onto the computer just to order the required time for IT learning and then   52   the usual way. Furthermore, he may leave school work to his    53   through the computer before class comes to an end in order to“complete” his IT learning   54  .   55   the teaching of the Chinese language is concerned, do computer lessons really achieve the desire goals to raise the students’ level of Chinese, pass on common values and so on? I am not so sure.
