The United Kingdom李仕才一、閱讀理解。He had more than 160 reports as a reporter on the Metro desk and more than 170 in 19 months as a national journalist based in Kansas City，Mo.But perhaps the most important piece of writing that AG.Sulzberger did for The New York Times before Wednesdaywhen he was named deputy publisherwas not an article and was not published in The Times, but was all about The Times.That work came to be known as the “innovation(創(chuàng)新) report”，which zeroed in on the importance of a digital future for the newspaper his family has owned since 1896 and said The Times risked losing its leading place if it did not make sweeping changes.In a conversation in his office on Wednesday, Mr. Sulzberger said he saw the innovation report and the thinking that led to his conclusions as “a wake­up call to the newsroom that we were at risk of missing the moment”“It was always easy to see how changes will endanger the traditions of the place，” he said，“but what became really clear to me was not changing was the more dangerous course if we cared about the traditions of the place.”Unlike some of the former deputy publishers in his role, Mr.Sulzberger has been more experienced in the newsroom than in advertising or consumer marketing.Still，his colleagues described him as a quick study whose modesty masked deep inner confidence.Besides，in the newsroom or out on an assignment，Mr.Sulzberger did not show off his connection to The Times owners.“I recognized the name，”said Vincent Bova，a video editor who figured in a feature article that Mr. Sulzberger wrote in 2010.“I mean, I knew I was dealing with royalty.There was no reason for me to bring that up with him, and he didnt.”So Mr.Sulzberger，in some way，has qualified himself for the position since long time ago.【解題導語】本篇文章屬于人物介紹類，介紹了著名出版人A.G.Sulzberger對紐約時報的重要貢獻，還介紹了他提出的“創(chuàng)新報道”理論以及他人對他的評價。1A.G.Sulzberger wrote the “innovation report” mainly to Aurge revolutions in The TimesBgain the position of deputy publisherCpromote changes in New York City Dshow directions to his family future A解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段可知，“創(chuàng)新報道”關注報紙數(shù)字化未來的重要性，紐約時報如果不改革，則將面臨危機。據(jù)此可以判斷，A.G.Sulzberger提及“創(chuàng)新報道”的目的是敦促紐約時報進行變革，故A項正確。2What is the biggest threat to traditional media according to Mr.Sulzberger?AScientific developments.BRapid social changes.CTheir own stubbornness.DDecreasing readers.C解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的“and said The Times risked losing its leading place if it did not make sweeping changes”和文章中提到的“innovation(創(chuàng)新) report”可知，A.G.Sulzberger認為紐約時報如果不做出變革，則將面臨危機；據(jù)此可以判斷，A.G.Sulzberger認為傳統(tǒng)媒體面臨的最大的問題是它們固執(zhí)己見，不思變革，故C項正確。3How does the author show us what Mr.Sulzberger is like in the last paragraph?ABy comparing him with others.BBy interviewing him in person.CBy giving examples of his routines.DBy quoting comments from others.D解析：寫作方法題。通讀最后一段可知，該段第二句介紹了同事對A.G.Sulzberger的評價，第四句和第五句介紹了視頻編輯Vincent Bova對他的評價；據(jù)此可以判斷，最后一段是通過別人的評價來描述A.G.Sulzberger的，故D項正確。4What does the author think of Mr.Sulzberger according to the passage?ACasual.BObjective.CAdmirable.DCritical.C解析：觀點態(tài)度題。通讀全文可知，A.G.Sulzberger提出“創(chuàng)新報道”理論并前瞻性地認識到數(shù)字化時代對傳統(tǒng)媒體的影響，意識到傳統(tǒng)媒體變革的重要意義；據(jù)此可以判斷，作者對A.G.Sulzberger的態(tài)度是欽佩的，故C項正確。二、單句語法填空1_(attract) by the movie starring Jet Li, I decided to see it again.答案：Attractedattract與其邏輯主語I之間為動賓關系，故應用過去分詞attracted作狀語。2I'll appreciate it if you can reply to my letter _your earliest convenience.答案：atat your earliest convenience 為固定短語，意為“盡快”。3We were _(delight) that we were successful in our experiment.答案：delighteddelighted “高興的；快樂的”，常用于修飾人，表示人的心理活動。4It is necessary that the problem _(discuss) at once.答案：(should) be discussedIt is necessary that sth./sb. (should) do sth. 為固定句型，本句中，the problem和discuss之間存在被動關系，故用被動語態(tài)。5I am looking forward to being told about your _(arrange) of vacation.答案：arrangementsarrangement “安排”，常用復數(shù)形式。6Even if _(invite)

flies！I went back to school and my lesson last month.It will be ten months before I attend the College Entrance Examination， makes me worried.I failed pass the English test last term because I had difficulty with it.I will never give up and determine to give myself second chance to pass .I will ask my teachers and friends for on how to improve it and work out a detailed plan.Besides，I will make use of time.Do you have any good ideas？Tell me I will be grateful to you.I'm looking forward to from you.Yours，Li Hua第一處：begin改為began。考查動詞時態(tài)。根據(jù)句中時間狀語last month可知，此處描述的是發(fā)生在過去的事情，所以應用一般過去時。第二處：that改為which?？疾槎ㄕZ從句。此處是非限制性定語從句，that不能引導非限制性定語從句，且從句中缺少主語，先行詞為整個句子，所以關系詞應該用which。第三處：fail后加to?？疾楣潭ù钆洹ail to do sth.是固定用法，表示“未能做成某事”。第四處：刪除because后的of?？疾榻樵~。because of后面跟名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語，文中其后跟的是從句，應用because來引導，故刪除of。第五處：the改為a?？疾楣谠~。該處表示“再給自己一次機會”，a second chance表示“再一次機會”。第六處：them改為it?？疾榇~。該處表示“通過英語考試”，應用it代指英語考試。第七處：advices改為advice?？疾槊~。advice是不可數(shù)名詞，故把advices改為advice。第八處：fully改為full?？疾樾稳菰~。該句中的名詞use應用形容詞修飾，所以把fully改為full。make full use of“充分利用”。第九處：or改為and?？疾椴⒘羞B詞。此處表示“告訴我(你的建議)，我將不勝感激”?！捌硎咕鋋nd句子”，and表示順承關系；“祈使句or句子”，or表示“否則”。第十處：hear改為hearing。考查動名詞。look forward to短語中to是介詞，后面跟名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語。9
