According to a recent survey carried out by The Economist (经济学家) magazine, Ireland is by far and away the best country in the world to live in.
Once Ireland joined the EU in 1973, the base for economic growth started to be put into place. The 1990s saw the economic growth finally arrive-a total change in Ireland’s economic fortunes was born. The country experienced year-on-year growth of almost ten per cent and now has the fourth-highest GDP per head in the world — a massive 36.5 thousand dollars per person. Coupled with this has been a huge drop in unemployment (失业率) from 20 per cent15 years ago to around four per cent today, all of which has meant Dublin’s newspapers now come with larger job sections and the country is looking to import up to 300 thousand new workers in the next few years.
In many ways, Ireland is the perfect advertisement (广告) for the policies of the IMF and the World Bank as it is one of the few economies that has opened itself up to free trade, foreign investment (投资) and unregulated business activity, cut welfare (福利) spending and checked wage (工资) increases and yet still managed to grow rapidly.
24 When did Ireland join the EU
A. In 1990. B. In 1973. C. In 1991. D. In 1974.
25. What can we learn from the text
A. Business activity is regulated in Ireland.
B. Dublin’s newspapers now come with smaller job sections.
C. Ireland is the bad advertisement for the policies of the IMF.
D. Ireland will import up to 300 thousand new workers in the future.
26. What does the underlined word “it” refer to
A. Free trade. B. The advertisement.
C. The World Bank. D. Ireland.
27. What section of a newspaper is the passage probably taken from
A. Technology. B. Education. C. Economy. D. Nature.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. D 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了主要介绍了爱尔兰在加入欧盟后经济的增长。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Once Ireland joined the EU in 1973, the base for economic growth started to be put into place.(爱尔兰在1973年加入欧盟后,经济增长的基础开始到位。)”可知,爱尔兰在1973年加入欧盟。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Coupled with this has been a huge drop in unemployment (失业率) from 20 per cent15 years ago to around four per cent today, all of which has meant Dublin’s newspapers now come with larger job sections and the country is looking to import up to 300 thousand new workers in the next few years.(与此同时,失业率从15年前的20%大幅下降到今天的4%左右,所有这些都意味着,都柏林的报纸现在有了更大的就业板块,爱尔兰正寻求在未来几年引进多达30万名新工人。)”可知,爱尔兰未来将引进多达30万名新工人。故选D项。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据指代关系和划线词所在句“In many ways, Ireland is the perfect advertisement (广告) for the policies of the IMF and the World Bank as it is one of the few economies that has opened itself up to free trade, foreign investment (投资) and unregulated business activity, cut welfare (福利) spending and checked wage (工资) increases and yet still managed to grow rapidly.(在许多方面,爱尔兰都是国际货币基金组织和世界银行政策的完美广告,因为它是少数几个向自由贸易、外国投资和不受监管的商业活动开放、削减福利支出和抑制工资增长、但仍设法实现快速增长的经济体之一。)”可知,句中指示代词it指的是“一个经济体”,即上文中的Ireland。故选D项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,结合根据第一段中“According to a recent survey carried out by The Economist (经济学家) magazine, Ireland is by far and away the best country in the world to live in.(根据《经济学人》杂志最近进行的一项调查,爱尔兰无疑是世界上最适合居住的国家。)”可知,文章介绍了爱尔兰在加入欧盟后经济的增长,所以,这篇文章可能出自报纸中的经济版块。故选C项。

●Shop Green. Shopping is fun, but buying things you don’t need is wasteful and even bad for the earth. Before you buy something, ask yourself how much you will use it, and whenever possible, buy things locally made instead of those shipped from far away.
●Dress Green. What really matters is not the colour. It’s how the clothes were made. So look for products made from environmentally friendly(环保的)materials.
●Study Green. What’s better than learning about the environment Save it while you learn. It can be as simple as using both sides of a piece of paper before you recycle it.

【36题详解】
根据前一句“Write it down.(写下来)”和后一句“Always be sure to write down all the homework so you won’t forget anything.(一定要把所有的作业都写下来,这样你就不会忘记任何东西。)”可知,我们应该记录下家庭作业,G选项“Keep a homework notebook where you record all your homework.(准备一个家庭作业笔记本,记录你所有的家庭作业)”符合本段主旨,其中 record all your homework与下文write down all the homework 对应。故选G项。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
I was standing in the checkout line behind a woman who looked to be in her 60s. When it was her turn to pay, the cashier greeted her by name and asked her how she was doing.
The woman looked down, shook her head and said, “Not so good. My husband just lost his job and my son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I don’t know how I’m going to get through the holidays.” Then she gave the cashier food stamps (食品券).
Neither did I know how I could get through the days a year ago during my fresh year in the company. I didn’t know the rules, I was not familiar with the work, and I couldn’t feel the value of myself I was even wondering whether I could get along, as my father was gone, my mother had no work and my brother was only 7. That feeling was exactly what the woman had said. Fortunately, things had changed since received my colleague’s card, from which I felt the encouragement, and sensed happiness falling upon me again.
So I really wanted to help but didn’t know how. Should I offer to pay for her groceries, or ask for her husband’s resume (简历) As I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the woman returning her shopping cart. Suddenly I remembered something in my purse that I thought could help her. It wasn’t a handful of cash or an offer of a job for her husband, but maybe it would make her life better.
Then I approached the woman. My heart pounded as this was the first time that I had come with the idea to help a stranger.
“Excuse me,” I said, my voice trembling a bit. “I couldn’t help accidentally hearing what you said to the cashier. It sounds like you’re going through a really hard time right now. I’m so sorry. I’d like to give you something.”
I handed her the small card from my purse.
Paragraph 1:
When the woman read the card, she began to cry.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
After we embraced, I walked back to my car and the words on the card crowded into my mind again.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】When the woman read the card, she began to cry. And through her tears, she said, “You have no idea how much this means to me.” I was a little startled by her reply. Having never done anything like this before, I didn’t know what kind of reaction I might receive. All I could think to say was, “Oh my. Would it be OK to give you a hug ”
After we embraced, I walked back to my car and the words on the card crowded into my mind again. “You Matter.” A few weeks earlier, a colleague gave me a similar card as encouragement for a project I was working on. When I read the card, I felt a warm glow spread inside of me. Deeply touched, I came home and ordered my own box of You Matter cards and started sharing them.

According to a recent survey carried out by The Economist (经济学家) magazine, Ireland is by far and away the best country in the world to live in.
Once Ireland joined the EU in 1973, the base for economic growth started to be put into place. The 1990s saw the economic growth finally arrive-a total change in Ireland’s economic fortunes was born. The country experienced year-on-year growth of almost ten per cent and now has the fourth-highest GDP per head in the world — a massive 36.5 thousand dollars per person. Coupled with this has been a huge drop in unemployment (失业率) from 20 per cent15 years ago to around four per cent today, all of which has meant Dublin’s newspapers now come with larger job sections and the country is looking to import up to 300 thousand new workers in the next few years.
In many ways, Ireland is the perfect advertisement (广告) for the policies of the IMF and the World Bank as it is one of the few economies that has opened itself up to free trade, foreign investment (投资) and unregulated business activity, cut welfare (福利) spending and checked wage (工资) increases and yet still managed to grow rapidly.
24. When did Ireland join the EU
A. In 1990. B. In 1973. C. In 1991. D. In 1974.
25 What can we learn from the text
A. Business activity is regulated in Ireland.
B. Dublin’s newspapers now come with smaller job sections.
C. Ireland is the bad advertisement for the policies of the IMF.
D. Ireland will import up to 300 thousand new workers in the future.
26. What does the underlined word “it” refer to
A. Free trade. B. The advertisement.
C. The World Bank. D. Ireland.
27. What section of a newspaper is the passage probably taken from
A. Technology. B. Education. C. Economy. D. Nature.
C

As time goes on, people have come to realize the importance of protecting the environment. But they can’t deal with everything by themselves. Take small steps, and you can make a difference.
●Think Green. Think about the environment as you live your life. If you turn off lights and TV when leaving the room, you’ll save energy. If you take shorter showers, you will save water.
●Shop Green. Shopping is fun, but buying things you don’t need is wasteful and even bad for the earth. Before you buy something, ask yourself how much you will use it, and whenever possible, buy things locally made instead of those shipped from far away.
●Dress Green. What really matters is not the colour. It’s how the clothes were made. So look for products made from environmentally friendly(环保的)materials.
●Study Green. What’s better than learning about the environment Save it while you learn. It can be as simple as using both sides of a piece of paper before you recycle it.
32. What does the writer want us to do
A. Know some facts. B. Deal with everything at once.
C. Protect the environment. D. Make no difference.
33. How many steps can we take according to the text

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
I was standing in the checkout line behind a woman who looked to be in her 60s. When it was her turn to pay, the cashier greeted her by name and asked her how she was doing.
The woman looked down, shook her head and said, “Not so good. My husband just lost his job and my son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I don’t know how I’m going to get through the holidays.” Then she gave the cashier food stamps (食品券).
Neither did I know how I could get through the days a year ago during my fresh year in the company. I didn’t know the rules, I was not familiar with the work, and I couldn’t feel the value of myself I was even wondering whether I could get along, as my father was gone, my mother had no work and my brother was only 7. That feeling was exactly what the woman had said. Fortunately, things had changed since received my colleague’s card, from which I felt the encouragement, and sensed happiness falling upon me again.
So I really wanted to help but didn’t know how. Should I offer to pay for her groceries, or ask for her husband’s resume (简历) As I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the woman returning her shopping cart. Suddenly I remembered something in my purse that I thought could help her. It wasn’t a handful of cash or an offer of a job for her husband, but maybe it would make her life better.
Then I approached the woman. My heart pounded as this was the first time that I had come with the idea to help a stranger.
“Excuse me,” I said, my voice trembling a bit. “I couldn’t help accidentally hearing what you said to the cashier. It sounds like you’re going through a really hard time right now. I’m so sorry. I’d like to give you something.”
I handed her the small card from my purse.
Paragraph 1:
When the woman read the card, she began to cry.

Paragraph 2:
After we embraced, I walked back to my car and the words on the card crowded into my mind again.
