Happy April Fool's Day! In celebration of the day, we have put together a list of some of the greatest hoaxes (恶作剧) in history. They are the lies that have been designed for innocent people who are ready to believe them.
▲INSTANT COLOR TV
In 1962 there was only one TV channel in Sweden, and it broadcast in black and white. The station's Kjell Stepson, appeared on the news to announce that thanks to a newly developed technology, all viewers could now quickly and easily transform their existing sets to display color reception. All they had to do was pull a nylon stocking over their TV screen, and they would begin to see their favorite shows in color. Reportedly, hundreds of thousands of people, were taken in. Actual color TV transmission only started to appear in Sweden on April 1, 1970.
▲SAN SERRIFFE
In 1977 the British newspaper The Guardian published a special seven-page supplement (增刊) in honor of the tenth anniversary of San Serfiffe, a small republic located in the Indian Ocean. A series of articles affectionately asked for more information about the beautiful holiday spot. Few noticed that everything about the island was made up.
▲NIXON FOR PRESIDENT
In 1992 American National Public Radio's Talk of the Nation program announced that Richard Nixon, in a surprise move, was running for President again. His new campaign slogan was, "I didn't do anything wrong, and I won't do it again." Accompanying this announcement were audio clips (片断) of Nixon delivering his election speech. Listeners responded immediately to the announcement, flooding the show with calls expressing shock and anger. Only during the second haft of the show did the host John Huckleberry reveal that the announcement was a practical joke. Nixon's voice was copied by comedian Rich Little.
36. Which of the following western countries is NOT mentioned in the text?
A. India B. the UK
C. the United States D. Sweden
37. Who worked as a host on the radio?
A. Kjell Stepson B. Rich Little
C. Richard Nixon D. John Huckleberry
38. When did the small republic San Serriffe come into being?
A. In 1962. B. In 1977.

(B)
People in Britain often talk about their homes: their mortgages (按揭), the interest rates, and rising prices. Here's a guide to some of the words and phrases you might come across.
It's a good idea in the UK to arrange a mortgage with a bank before you start looking. This is when the bank tells you how much money they will lend you so you have a good idea of how much you can afford.
The next step is to go to an estate agent and see what sort of properties they have available in your budget range and in your area. If you see something you like, the estate agent will arrange for you to view the property, so that you can see the house or flat for yourself.
If you see something that takes your eye, you put in an offer. The vendor (卖家) can accept or decline this offer, and if the vendor accepts it, you can move forward with the sale. However, as you don't pay any money at this point, the offer isn't legally binding (具有约束力), and in theory, you can pull out of the offer at any time that you like.
Your next step will probably be to get a structural survey done. A qualified surveyor will inspect the house and write a report that illustrates any structural problems, like damp or drainage problems.
If you still want to go ahead with the sale, you need to appoint a lawyer to do the legal paperwork, if you already own a house you might also be busy trying to sell it Many house owners prefer to sell to first-time buyers (those people who don't already own a home), as they are not in a chain (waiting for other people to buyer house before they can buy their next house).
Finally, once the contracts are signed and exchanged, you complete on your house. You get the keys and you can move in whenever you want. Then you might want to throw a house-warming party. Congratulation!
40. Which of the following shows the right order of what happens before the people in the UK move into a new house?
a. ask for a company which represents others of properties
b. decide how much to borrow from the bank
c. examine the structure of the house
d. hire a lawyer and make a contract
e. offer the seller the right money
f. visit the house and discuss a price with the seller
A. b, a, f, d, c, e B. b, a, f, e, d, c
C. b, a, f, c, d, e D. b, f, d, e, c, a
41. According to the passage, these statements are correct EXCEPT ___________.
A. After getting the keys, the owners sometimes have a party.
B. People care for mortgages, interest rates and the prices &house.
C. The sellers are more interested in the first-time buyers.
D. People can borrow the whole money for a new house from a bank.
42. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Collectors. B. Owners.
C. Lawyers. D. Surveyors.
43. The passage is maybe one that _______________.
A. give some advice on the house B. give some tips to buyers
C. introduces a book on travelers D. introduces a guide to visitors

【答案解析】
【单项填空】
1.A。contain一般"包含"得是一个整体,侧重"内有"的意思;include往往包含的是整体的一个部分或几个部分,including在这里是介词。依题意A为最佳选项。
2.D。supply sb. with sth. 或supply sth. to sth.;offer sb. sth.或offer sth. to sb.。依题意应选D。
3.D。根据句意:她总是得到经理的表扬,令同事们非常羡慕。be the envy of sb.意为"是某人羡慕的对象"。
4.B。in case"以防;万一";in that case"既然那样、假使那样的话";as the case may be"视情况而定";on the case"处理事件"。依题意B项最符合。
5.B。expect sth. from sb.。
6. D。to go to this small town在句中作定语,修饰the best ways,而谓语动词要根据主语the best ways而定。若ways改为way,则选C。
7.D。be sick of sth. = be tired of"对……感到厌烦";be tired with"因……而感到疲劳"。故选D。
8.A。make a claim for/ on/ to意为"对……提出请求或要求"。又如: They made a claim for higher pay。
9.C。providing/ provided that意为"倘若、假使"= if,引导的状语从句中的谓语动词用一般现在时。
10.C。at its highest意为"达到最高点"。
11.A。指特定日子及星期的早晨时,常用介词on。但与early,late连用时,介词用in。early / late in the morning = in the early/ late morning。start off for… 意为"动身前往……",for表示方向。
12.C。根据句子结构及句子意思可知,考查介词on后引导的宾语从句。选项A只可引导状语从句。选项C"whatever"相当于anything that。选项D"anything"后如有that也对。
13.B。答语的意思是:这么说来,似乎(那个时候)你没在仔细听。故用过去进行时态。
14.D。wish引导的宾语从句表示与过去事实相反的愿望,应用过去完成时。
15.A。本题考查短语动词的辨析。句意:在故事的开始不要先提那个,否则会泄露令人吃惊的结局(因而故事也不精彩了)。give away "泄露";give out"分发、散发";give up"放弃";give off表示"散发……气/光/ 热"。根据题意,排除B、C、D。
【完形填空】
16.B。外面下雨了,人们都在躲雨,等候雨停。下文母亲的话"We'll wait until..."也给出了提示。从后半句看,一些人耐心,一些人有些恼怒,所以不能说大家都在抱怨。
17.C。别的人恼怒,当然因为大自然的突然降雨打乱了他们正常的工作生活节奏。
18.D。雨水冲刷走了世界上的尘土和脏物。
19.A。catch me相当于catch my attention,"引起了我的注意力",因为此前我正沉醉于雨水带来的感受中。并没有让我恼怒,也谈不上给我留下了很深的印象。
20.A。slow down指雨下得缓和一点,不能说stop a bit,停止不存在程度上的一点。
21.B。此句话和前面说的话一样,所以是重复了一遍。
22.A。小孩子想让母亲一起在雨中走,而母亲又没有答应,所以孩子要拉着母亲的手往外走。
23.C。从女儿的回答"When you were talking ..."可知母亲是问小孩自己是什么时候说那话的。
24.C。如果上帝能让小孩的父亲度过这一难关,则能让他们度过任何"难关"。
25.B。still一动不动;silent沉默,不出声。对于小孩的这一天真美好的愿望,大家显然都事先没有想到,所以都在沉默,并静观下面事情的发展。
26.A。what引导宾语从句,what在句中充当say的宾语,母亲在考虑要和女儿怎么说。
27.B。母亲知道,孩子说出的话,在一些人看来肯定会是有点傻的,因为上帝是不存在的,这种愿望只是一种幻想。dishonest不诚实的,欺骗的。孩子的说法是一种美好愿望,当然算不上是欺骗。
28.A。母亲不愿破坏孩子的童真,所以表示赞同"你是对的",是肯定孩子的话就是自己讲过的话,而不是说孩子聪明。
29.A。run off跑开。此处强调off,故把这个词提前。
30.D。上文的silent以及下文的smiling,laughing可以看出母女的行为已引起了人们的关注,他们都在看着母女俩在雨中跑。
31.A。从定语从句可知,母女的行为也感染了其他的人,又有几个人也加入她们的行列,在雨中奔跑。follow跟着。
32.B。all the way一路上。way和后面的to搭配。这几个人一边跑一边又叫又笑,很兴奋。
33.C。母女的美好愿望是源于小孩的父亲得癌症了,所以说境况可以带走人们的健康。
34.B。从下文"… make memories every day!"可知,自己创造的美好记忆是不会被带走的。
35.B。take the chance / opportunities to do …抓住机会做某事,为固定搭配。该句的意思是"抓住创造美好记忆的机会。
【阅读理解】
36.A。文中第二段提到了瑞典,第三段提到了英国,第四段提到了美国,而没有提到过印度。
37.D。最后一段倒数第二句可知D项正确。A是技术专家,D是喜剧演员,C是美国前总统。
38.D。从第三段最后-句可知,这个岛屿是编造出来的.所以选D项。
39.B。选项A、C很容易被排除。这篇文章并没有报道一个新闻事件,所以D项被排除,故选B项。
40.C。依据全文,正确顺序为C项。
40. D。本题首先是注意审题,认真阅读全文,主要从第二段最后一句"you have a good idea of how much you can afford"可知。

43.B。由文章第一段可知答案。
【对话填空】

【书面表达】
One possible version:
Dear Mike,
I'm very glad to receive your e-mail.
As you said, Super Voice Girls are really very popular these days and the champion Li Yuchun has appeared on the cover of Times magazine. Some people think Super Voice Girls are popular because common people are allowed space to voice / express their own opinions. Besides, they have broken the traditional value of beauty.
But I think it is wrong of young people to admire Super Voice Girls too much, because they may mislead young people. We should have real heroes to learn from and work hard for the future of our country.
What do you think?
Best wishes.
Li Hua
