Part ⅣCloze
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了食物银行的概念、它的运作方式以及除了食品外食品银行其他方面的情况。文章最后提到,应该“通过立法确保国内饥饿问题不要迷失于经济繁荣的阴影中”。
61. C) 根据句意,“食品银行”的食物来自于什么地方,C项正确。result from表示“因为,由于”,意思不妥。
62. A) give away此处解释为“送掉,赠送”,A项正确。give out“公布,发表;用完”;give over“移交;停止(做某事)”;give off“发出(气味、信号等)”。
63. B)项正确。前半句意思是“食品银行实行复杂而先进的仓储式运作”,后半句是定语从句,由where引导,相当于during which。
64. D)根据前后动词的意义确定该题选项,前面是“收集食品”,后面是“再分发食品”,中间应该取sort“对食品进行分类”,而不是process“对食品加工”,D项正确。
65. B)下文提到通过机构网络提供服务,而不是直接发送食品,选B。
66. A)those in need意为“穷人”,符合上下文意思,A项正确。
67. C)前半句为否定,后半句是肯定,中间用instead连接。C项正确。
68. D)an extensive network意为“庞大的网络”,D项正确。
69. B)根据句意,各个机构服务各自的社区,应选respective。
70. D)参照上一句,community正确。
71. A)从上下文意思判断,此处表示结果(therefore),而不是转折(nevertheless),让步(still)或对比(conversely),A正确。
72. C) a number of后接复数名词,a quantity of虽然也表示“大量”,一般不用于指人,如a quantity of meat,a quantity of vegetables,C项正确。
73. B)下文提到食品银行还经营儿童快餐和社区农业项目,所以本题选other。
74. D) range from…to…是固定搭配:“从…到…不等;涉及从…到…”。
75. A)儿童快餐是课外食品供应项目的一部分,A项正确。
76. C)raise funds是词组,意为“筹集资金”。
77. B)项正确,注意句末关键词hungry,所以用feed“提供食物”。
78. C)参看逗号前a hunger advocate“主张存在饥饿现象者”,后面应该是对饥饿现象的研究,选C。
79. A)本处的意思为“国内饥饿现象这一问题”,应选issue,A项正确。
80. D)economic boom“经济繁荣”,形容词作定语。
Part ⅤWriting
写作提示:本文要求写一封贷款信。理由要充分,对学生来说,由于家庭困难而无法支付学费是不错的话题。在行文时需注意句子结构的变化,简单句、并列句和复杂句尽可能交叉使用。在涉及词语的使用时,注意有意识的变化,比如“主修”可以表述为“major in”或“specialize in”;“学费”可以用expenses、tuition、fees等等;“经济困难”使用“financial burden/pressure/difficulties”。

A Letter Applying for a Bank Loan
Mar. 1
Dear Sir/Madame,
I am a sophomore in Shanghai University, majoring in computer software. In the previous one and a half years I have been a model student and monitor of my class.
However, since I registered here, the expenses have become a burden for my average family. You know, my parents are both laid-off workers, and, to make matters worse, my mother has suddenly fallen ill and is expecting a major operation. It will be beyond their ability to finance me through my remaining education. It is now a must for me to help relieve their financial pressure. So I’m applying to your bank for a loan of 10,000 yuan. If my application is approved, all the money will go to my tuition and fees for the coming academic years.
I’ve made a detailed plan to arrange my school life. A part-time job as a family tutor will not be difficult to find and some work-study programs for students like me are also provided in our university. From these sources I will be able to earn more than enough to support myself. I guarantee that I will repay the loan within five years, that is, within two years after my graduation. Please have confidence in me: I have a very good credit record.
I would be greatly obliged if my application is granted. Many thanks.
Yours sincerely,
Liuliu
