第21题考察时态。现在进行时表将来，表示计划好的事情，并且距离现在是不远的将来。根据句意：女士们先生们，我们即将到达常州站，下车的乘客请做好准备。用现在进行时表即将发生的动作。故选B。
第22题考察形容词词义辨析。A为可持续的，B为不充分的，C为赋予特权的，D为机密的。根据句意：人民日益增长的美好生活需要和不平衡不充分的发展之间的矛盾。不充分，用inadequate故选B。
第23题考察非谓语。doing表伴随，修饰前面的“加强控制”and后的stationing承接前面taking。根据句意：他们没有妥协，反而加强控制，夺走他们许多权力，并且在那儿驻兵。故选A。
第24题考察名词性从句和强调句。首先句子中没有先行词，不是定从，后面“students…on meaningful projects”完整，为名从。而“gap year”暗示“在这段时间中”所以用when，排除BD。把“it?s”和中间“before… on meaningful projects”去掉，“the gap year may help them understand college life better”句意仍然通畅，说明为强调句，用that。故选A。
第25题考察动词短语。A为凸显，B为化妆/解释/编造，C为留神，关注，D为举起/维持。根据句意：NBA选手说“如果有机会的话，我想加入中国的篮球队打比赛。”所以说我们接下来要留神关注明年的CBA赛事。故选C。
第26题考察名词性从句和固定搭配。首先句子中没有先行词，不是定从，后面“they stepped out into the street”并非对前面“situation”的名词解释，所以不是同位语从句，“situation”暗示“在这个形势下”应当是个抽象地点名词，用where,排除AB。后面句子中已有“nearly”，不用hardly，用only to do表示一种出乎意料不愉快的结果。故选D。
第27题考察固定搭配和独立主格。第一空the second largest固定搭配，前后主语不一致，为独立主格，用being。根据句意：蒙特利尔是世界第二大法语城市，仅次于巴黎。故选B。
第28题考察介词短语辨析。A为出于他的兴趣，B为出于他的尊敬，C为代表他，D为在他的命令下。根据句意：主管来不了了，所以我代表他向你们表示热烈欢迎。故选C。
第29题考察情态动词。首先D. mustn?t have没有这个表达，排除。C. shouldn?t have表示过去“本不该”，这里表示现在，不符合题意，wouldn?t表示‘偏不’，符合题意。根据句意：—“你为什么不搬到其他城市去呢？”—“我也想，但她偏不愿意让我走”。故选B。
第30题考察连词。A为以防万一，B为因为，C为所以/这样以至于，D为既然。根据句意：这个男人躲在门背后等待着，这样就没有人能看到他和他的经理商量着升职的事。故选C。
第31题考察名词性从句和定语从句。at后面缺名词，he thinks为插入语，is the appropriate moment, 缺主语，这里属于前缺后缺用what故选C。
第32题考察反义疑问句。有never表示否定意义，排除BD。祈使句的反义疑问句一般用will you。故选A。
第33题考察时态。scare 做不及物动词表示事物的属性和状态。he doesn?t scare so easily为一般状态。根据句意：他不那么容易吓到人的。故选A。 第34题考察虚拟语气和语态。根据句意：“他们本就该被消灭掉”。过去用have 体现过去，而省略句中表示状态，省略到be动词，故选have been。
第35题考察固定搭配。all rights reserved“版权(或著作权)所有”。故选D。
第二节：完形填空(共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分)
请阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Last year, I heard about the Himalayas and the melting of the ice because of climate change. I decided to do a __36__ swim underneath Mt. Everest, the highest mountain on this earth.
When we got up to the small lake underneath the summit of Mt. Everest, I prepared myself in __37__ ways, for this swim would be so difficult. I put on my iPod, listened to some music, got
myself as __38__ as possible and then I __39__ myself into that water. I swam as __40__ as I could for the first hundred meters. Afterwards I __41__ the huge problem on my hands. My fingers were __42__ the size of sausages because—you know, we're made partially of water—when water freezes it __43__. I then could barely breathe, began to __44__ and even threw up in the water. It all happened so quickly. I don't know why, but I went __45__. Luckily, the water was quite shallow, and I was able to push myself __46__ the bottom of the lake. I've heard it said that drowning is the most __47__ death you can have. I have never, ever heard such nonsense.
In our camp, I __48__ about what had gone wrong there on Mt. Everest with my crew. My team just gave it to me __49__. “Lewis, you need to have a complete __50__ if you want to __51__ it. Every single thing you've learned in the past 23 years of swimming, you must __52__. And also the every single thing you learned when you were __53__ in the British army, about speed and aggression. This is the time to swim with real __54__.”
I can't tell how good and __55__ I felt when I swam to the other side two days later. But I learned a very, very important lesson there on Mt. Everest: just because something worked in the past so well, it doesn't mean it's going to work in the future.
( )36. A. passionate B. symbolic C. creative D. remarkable ( )37. A. different B. simple C. common D. usual
( )38. A. aggressive B. optimistic C. protective D. energetic ( )39. A. put B. threw C. walked D. tried

( )52. A. remember B. insist C. exploit D. forget
( )53. A. swimming B. serving C. training D. fighting
( )54. A. respect B. intelligence C. imagination D. ambition ( )55. A. hopeful B. skillful C. painful D. thankful
答案：36-40 BDABB 41-45 ABCAA 46-50 CDDBB 51-55 CDBAD 详细解析 ：
第36题我决定在Mt. Everest下来一场创世纪的游泳。symbolic“有象征意义的”引申为“前无古人，后无来者的”，与后文作者一开始轻视这次游泳，想要创下记录的雄心呼应。
第37题无视后面for this swim would be so difficult，在文章最后“just because something worked in the past so well, it doesn?t mean it?sgoing to work in the future”暗示了作者当初在准备时是in usual ways，simple“简单的”，common“常见的”不符合题意，usual“平常的”符合。
