1. --How did Mark learn Spanish?

--___________________

选择一项：

A. Very well.

B. By taking a course.正确

C. In the library

【解析】根据问句中的疑问词How可知答语应该是某种方式，所以选B。句意："---

正确答案是：By taking a course.

2. --You know, I have three kids now.

--___________________

选择一项：

A. That's terrific!

B. Well, I've grown a mustache.

C. Say, you've really changed your mind.

D. Well, I gave up drinking.

【解析】此题可用排除法进行解题。上文说"你知道吗，我现在有3个孩子”，这属于好事情，所以答语用That's terrific.（太好了）表示积极回应。

正确答案是：That's terrific!

3. --John, ____________?

--Oh, that's my father! And beside him, my mother.

A. which is that

B. who's talking over there

C. what are they doing

D. what is the person over there

【解析】根据下文回答"那是我爸爸”来判断，上文在问"某人是谁（Who's...?）”。句意："----约翰，谁在那里说话？----哦，那是我爸爸，他旁边是我妈妈。”

正确答案是：B

4. --How do you do? Glad to meet you.

--______________________.

A. How are you? Thank you!

B. Fine. How are you?

C. How do you do? Glad to meet you, too.

D. Nice. How are you?

【解析】此题考查如何回应问候。针对问候语"How do you do”，只要回答"How do you do”就可以。既然对方说"Glad to meet you（幸会，即：很高兴认识您）”，回答就要说"Glad to meet you, too.（幸会）”。

正确答案是：C

5. --We are going to have a party tonight. Can you join us?

--_____________________.

A. That's all set.

B. Of course not. I have no idea.

C. No, I can't.

D. I'm afraid not, because I have to go to an important meeting.

【解析】此题考查如何回应邀请。针对上文中的邀请用语"你能来参加吗（Can you join us）”，如果能参加，可以说：Sure./Of course./Certainly, I can. 如果不能参加，可以先说：Sorry./I am afraid not，然后解释原因。句意："----今晚我们要举行一个晚会，你能来参加吗？----恐怕不行，我得参加一个重要会议。”

正确答案是：D

Passage 1

My husband got married in 1981 and for the first ten years of our marriage I was happy to stay home and raise our three children. The four years ago, my youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work. My husband was very supportive and helped me to make my decision. He emphasized all of the things I could do around the house, and said he thought I could be a great success in business.

After several weeks of looking for a job, I found my present job, which was working for a small public relations firm. At first, my husband was very proud of me and would tell his friends, "My clever little wife can run that company she's working for.”

But as his joking statement approached truth, my husband stopped talking to me about my job. I have received several promotions and pay increases, and I'm now making more money than he is. I can buy my new clothes and a new car. Because of our joint incomes, my husband and I can do many things we had always dreamed of doing, but we don't do these things because he is very unhappy.

We fight about little things and my husband is very critical of me in front of our friends. For the first time in our marriage, I think it is possible that our marriage may come to an end.

I love my husband very much, and I don't want him to feel inferior, but I also love my job. I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I don't know how. Who can give me some advice? Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career?

1. The passage was probably written around 1996.

答案：A

【解析】题干意思是"这篇文章可能写于1996年。”根据文章内容推算年份，作者1981年结婚，有10年时间待在家里养育孩子，4年前最小的孩子上学，然后找到现在的工作并工作一段时间，大约需要15年。因此，该句所陈述的事实是对的。

正确答案是：A

2. The husband was supportive for the author at the beginning, for he encouraged her to look for a job.

答案：A

【解析】题干意思是"刚开始丈夫对作者是支持的，因为鼓励她找工作。”根据第2段最后一句"He emphasized all of the things I could do around the house, and said he thought I could be a great success in business.（他细数了所有在我家附近我可以从事的工作，还说他觉得我做生意也会取得成功。）”判断，题干所陈述的是事实。

正确答案是：A
