答案及解析
46.B【解析】考查介词。在农场用介词on。
47.B 【解析】考查and前后的动词时态一致。and后边的动词用的是过去式had，所以and前面的动词也要用过去式grew。而且，根据上下文，这里的意思应是种菜(不是吃菜)，与后边的养(牛)相对应。
4.8.C【解析】考查固定搭配。from morning till night意为“从早到晚”。
49.A【解析l考查动词。“对某人说”，say to sb.;“告诉某人”，teu sb.;
“问某人”，ask sb.。
50.B【解折】考查形容词。下文提到，她妻子不愿天天做饭，所以当听说要出去吃的时候，妻子应是很高兴。形容词happy作表语。happily是副词。
51.C【解析】考查固定搭配和对上下文的理解。全文并没有显示出妻 子不愿吃饭，读完全文，应该可以看出，是不愿意总是做饭。likedoing sth.意为“喜欢做某事”。
52.C【解析】考查固定搭配。in a plane=by plane.坐飞机。
53.c【解析】考查连词。when意为“当…的时候”。
54.A【解析】考查过去式。read的过去式与原形一样。
55.B【解析】考查根据上下文填词的能力。“This is the place for US”意为“这就是我们要去的地方”。

getting older is a thing that happens to all of US.As a result，many people work hard to keep youn9.So the last thing they want is for someone to ask the question，“How old are you?”
People may answer this question like： “How old do you think I am?”“30 somethin9.I’m in my thirties.
Let’S just leave it at that.…‘I Can’t remember.…‘Oh.don’t ask me that.…‘A lot older than what l would like to be.”
However，if you really want to know someone ’S age，this is how you could find out the answer.First you esti—mate(估计)their age.Then you subtract(减去)ten years from that estimation.Certainly you will get a big smile from that person who will also say，“Wow.You are my best friend.I’m 38 already.Can you believe it?”You.of
course.say.“N0.I really Call’t.You’re jokin9.You don’t look a day over 28.”

Good morning，ladies and gentlemen.May I draw your attentton(注意)to the book Safety in Fright?You will iliad the book in the pocket at the back of the seat in float of you and we ask you to read it.You ’11 also fmd a news-paper and you may find it interestin9.For those of you not familiar with this kind of plane，you call smoke on the left.hand side of the passenger cabin(机舱)，once the signs at the front of the cabin have been turned off。and at llo time in the toilet at the back of the plane.We have a duty-free(免税的)bar on the plane and cigarettes，beer and
mineral water will be on sale during the flight.If you have any questions deang the mght.please ask Our four hostesses(空姐).Would you now please fasten(系紧)your seat belts tO get ready for take-off?We wish you a pleasant fright!Thank you.
1、The announcement is made ________
A.during the flight
B.before taking off
C.after taking Off
答案及解析 B【解析】题干意为：这条通知是…时候播出的?在通知播出快要结束的时候，乘客们会听到这样一句话：“Would you UOW please fasten your seat belts to get ready for take—off?”这句话的意思是：请乘客们系好座位上的安全带，飞机准备起飞了。
2、People are asked ________
A.to read the book Safety in Flight
B.to find out where they can smoke
C.to buy something during the flight
参考解析：A【解析】题干意为：人们被要求…。通知一开始就提到了“Safety in Flight”即《乘机安全》一书。通知提醒乘客：“You will find the book in the pocket at the back of the seat in front of you and we ask you to read it.”通知明确要求乘客阅读此书。另外，通知明确告诉乘客可以在哪些地方吸烟，不可能让乘客自己去找吸烟的地方，所以B是错误的。通知告诉乘客在哪里可以购买食品、饮料，却没有要求乘客必须购买这些东两，所以C也不正确。
3、Can people smoke in the plane?
A.No, they can’ t.
B.Yes, but only in some areas of the plane.
C.Yes, but only in the cabin.
参考解析：B【解析】题干意为：乘客可以在飞机里吸烟吗?通知中提到：“You can smoke on the left—hand side of the passenger cabin，once the signs...”也就是当机舱前面的信号灯关闭时，乘客可以在乘机室左侧吸烟。这说明乘客可以吸烟，但只能在某些区域内吸烟。c提到的“机舱”范同过大，是错误的。
________
4、People in the plane can________
A.have a good sleep
B.have some small gifts
C.buy some duty-free things
参考解析：C【解析】题干意为：飞机上的人可以…。通知中提到：“We have a duty—free bar on the plane and cigarettes，beer and mineral water will be on sale during the flight.”既然飞机上有免税酒吧，那里面销售的香烟、饮料等一定是免税的。乘坐飞机的人可以买一些免税的东西。A和B的内容均未在通知中提及。
5、We learn from the text that________
A.the passengers will have a morning flight
B.they will have meals during the flight
C.the plane is going to fly across a mountain
参考解析：A【解析】题干意为：从文章中，我们得知…。通知第一句：“Good morning，ladies and gentlemen.”即准确无疑地传达出这样的信息：这架飞机将在早上飞行。
