There 56 a king who had twelve beautiful daughters.They 57 in twelve beds all in one room and when they went to bed, the 58 were shut and locked up.59 , every morning 60 shoes were found to be quite worn through as if they had been danced in all night.Nobody could 61 how it happened, or 62 the princesses had been.So the king made it 63 to all that if any person could discover the 64 and find out where it was that the princesses danced in the 65 , he would have the 66 he liked best to take as his wife, and would be king 67 his death.But whoever tried and did not succeed, after three days and nights, would be 68 to death.A prince from a nearby country soon came.He was well entertained, and in the evening was taken to the chamber(大房间)next 69 the one where the princesses lay in their twelve 70.There he was to sit and 71 where they went to dance;and, in order 72 nothing could happen without him hearing it, the door of his 73 was left open.But the prince soon went to sleep;and when he 74 in the morning he found that the princesses had all been dancing, 75 the soles of their shoes were full of holes

47.B应把in his honor改成in whose honor。这里是一个定语从句,限定前面的主语,而whose可以实现这一功能。
48.D应把that改为what。因为本句缺少宾语,所以用what引导的一个定语从句来袁示。
49.A应将tO make改成having made,这一句是说“他之前已经做过多次努力„„”。
50.B应该将was改成were。In the town提前,句子倒装,句子主语many old people需要跟复数的谓语动词。
51.D应把to play改成playing。enjoy doingsth.为固定搭配。
52.B应把she was改成was she。因为在So„that„句型中,如果So引导的是一个完整的句子,主谓需要倒装。
53.C应把increasingly改为increasing。修饰need这个名词应该用形容词,而increasingly是副词。
54.C应把more去掉。more和比较级不可同时用,比较级中多音节词前才需加more。
55.A应把has去掉。本句有明显的过去时标志性短语ten years ago,应用一般过去时,故直接用died即可。

(五)Most people who travel long distances complain of jetlag(喷气飞行时差反应).Jetlag makes business travelers less productive and more prone 1 making mistakes.It is actually caused by 2 of your “body clock” — a small cluster of brain cells that controls the timing of biological 3.The body clock is designed for a 4 rhythm of daylight and darkness, so that it is thrown out of balance when it 5 daylight and darkness at the “wrong” times in a new time zone.The 6 of jetlag often persist for days 7 the internal body clock slowly adjusts to the new time zone.Now a new anti-jetlag system is 8 that is based on proven 9 pioneering scientific research.Dr.Martin Moore-Ede has 10 a practical strategy to adjust the body clock much sooner to the new time zone 11 controlled exposure to bright light.The time zone shift is easy to accomplish and eliminates 12 of the discomfort of jetlag.A successful time zone shift depends on knowing the exact times to either 13 or avoid bright light.Exposure to light at the wrong time can actually make jetlag worse.The proper schedule 14 light exposure depends a great deal on 15 travel plans.Data on a specific flight itinerary and the individual' s sleep 16 are used to produce a Trip Guide with 17 on exactly when to be exposed to bright light.When the Trip Guide calls 18 bright light you should spend time outdoors if possible.If it is dark outside, or the weather is bad, 19 you are on an aeroplane, you can use a special light device to provide the necessary light 20 for a range of activities such as reading, watching TV or working.1.[A] from [B] of [C] for [D] to 2.[A] eruption [B] disruption [C] rupture [D] corruption 3.[A] actions [B] functions [C] behavior [D] reflection 4.[A] formal [B] continual [C] regular [D] circular 5.[A] experiences [B] possesses [C] encounters [D] retains 6.[A] signs [B] defects [C] diseases [D] symptoms 7.[A] if [B] whereas [C] while [D] although 8.[A] agreeable [B] available [C] adaptable [D] approachable 9.[A] extensive [B] tentative [C] broad [D] inclusive

(六)Our ape-men forefathers had 1 obvious natural weapons in the struggle for survival in the open.They had neither the powerful teeth nor the strong claws of the big cats.They could not 2 with the bear, whose strength, speed and claws 3 an impressive “small-fire” weaponry.They could not even defend themselves 4 running swiftly like the horses, zebras or small animals.If the apemen had attempted to compete on those terms in the open, they would have been 5 to failure and extinction.But they were 6 with enormous concealed advantages of a kind not possessed by any of their competitors.In the search 7 the pickings of the forest, the ape-men had 8 efficient stereoscopic vision and a sense of colour that the animals of the grasslands did not possess.The ability to see clearly at close range permitted the ape-men to study practical problems in a way that lay far 9 the reach of the original inhabitants of the grassland.Good long-distance sight was 10 another matter.Lack of long-distance vision had not been a problem for forest-dwelling apes and monkeys because the higher the viewpoint, the 11 the range of sight-so 12 they had had to do was climb a tree.Out in the open, how ever, this simple solution was not 13
Climbing a hill would have helped, 14 in many places the ground was flat.The ape-men 15 the only possible solution.They reared up as high as possible on their hind limbs and began to walk 16.This vital change of physical position brought about considerable disadvantages.It was extremely unstable and it meant that the already slow ape-men became slower 17.18 they persevered and their bone structure gradually became 19 to the new, unstable position that 20 them the name Homo erectus, upright man.1.[A] no [B] some [C] few [D] many 2.[A] match [B] compare [C] rival [D] equal 3.[A] became [B] equipped [C] posed [D] provided 4.[A] in [B] upon [C] by [D] with 5.[A] driven [B] doomed [C] forced [D] led 6.[A] bestowed [B] given [C] presented [D] endowed 7.[A] for [B] of [C] on [D] at 8.[A] progressed [B] generated [C] developed [D] advanced

(七)Television is the most effective brainwashing 1 ever invented by man.Advertisers know this to be 2.Children are 3 by television in ways we 4 understand.In the fall of 1971,1 was 5 a story involving a young white woman living on the 6 of Boston's black ghetto.Her car had 7 out of gas.She had gone to a filling station with a can and was returning to her car when she was 8 in an alley by a gang of black youths.The gang poured gasoline over her and set fire 9 her.She died of her burns.It was 10 established that some of the youths 11 had, on the night before the killing, 12 on television a rerun of an old movie in which a drifter is set on fire by an adolescent gang;There is some kind of strange reductive process 13 work here.To see something on television robs it of its reality, and then when the 14 thing is 15 out it is like the reenactment of something unreal.16 when the gang set fire to the girl, they were 17 what they had seen on a screen, 18 they themselves were on a screen, and in a story.I don' t think we have 19 begun to realize how powerful a medium television is.It has already become very clear that the candidate with the most television 20 win the election.1.[A] equipment [B] machine [C] medium [D] method 2.[A] true [B] real [C] actual [D] genuine 3.[A] influenced [B] affected [C] controlled [D] manipulated 4.[A] scarcely [B] nearly [C] completely [D] generally 5.[A] arranged [B] appointed [C] assigned [D] attributed 6.[A] outskirts [B] fringes [C] border [D] range 7.[A] used [B] consumed [C] run [D] spent 8.[A] trapped [B] caught [C] held [D] tucked 9.[A] on [B] at [C] over [D] to 10.[A] then [B] after [C] lately [D] later 11.[A] associated [B] related [C] involved [D] participated 12.[A] watch [B] watched [C] watching [D] were watching 13.[A] at [B] on [C] in [D] under 14.[A] exact [B] extraordinary [C] normal [D] same
