36. B。

解析:此處是關(guān)于迪斯尼樂園的位置“south of Los Angeles”。limit意為“有限的”;locate意為“位于”;expanded意為“擴大的”。

37. C。

解析:作為一個旅游勝地“吸引”游客必為其制勝的功能,draw有“吸引”的意思。please表示“使人滿意”;organize意為“組織”;benefit意為“使人受益”,三項均不合句意。

38. D。

解析:此處考查游客的來源,要求較強的邏輯性。根據(jù)下文提到回避周末或者學(xué)校放假時間來觀看,所以當(dāng)?shù)厝死弥苣﹣硗娴目赡苄宰畲,選D。來訪者不可能只是村民或者學(xué)生,故排除A、C;從原文中看不出來訪者都是外國人,所以不能選B。句子意思為“迪斯尼樂園吸引的游客大多數(shù)來自當(dāng)?shù)亍薄?/p>

39. A。

解析:周末和假期游客多,等候的時間肯定要長,而這里特別指出了要回避這兩個時間,為的是等候的時間短一些,故排除C。此處主要指時間長短,所以排除B、D。

40. D。

解析:根據(jù)“the period”知,此處考慮的是一個時間段,所以首先排除A;圣誕前后應(yīng)該是一年中的一個時間段,不可能是一天或一周,所以也排除B、C。

41. C。

解析:該部分提示游客來訪時盡量來得早點,避免在好景點發(fā)生游客擁擠現(xiàn)象。leave(離開),plan(計劃),book(預(yù)定),都不符合句意,故排除A、B、D。

42. D。

解析:該題邏輯性強,為了避開擁擠的時間段,以便有足夠的時間自己游玩,所以應(yīng)該提前一個小時到達,故選before,其他選項錯。

43. B。

解析:提前一小時到達游樂園,是為了回避在最受歡迎的景點遇到擁擠。before crowds build可指“在游客扎堆現(xiàn)象形成前”。avoid意為“回避”;break意為“破裂”;combine意為“結(jié)合;使聯(lián)合”,均與句子意思不符,也不符合前面的邏輯。

44. A。

解析:該段談購票的問題。該句主語為迪斯尼樂園,為售票方,所以選A。show(出示;展覽);send(發(fā)送;派遣);collect(收集)都不符合文意。

45. D。

解析:這里指迪斯尼樂園有網(wǎng)上售票,為了防止做假,應(yīng)該是不允許游客在自己家里“print(打。薄eserve和keep都有“儲備、保存”的意思;copy(復(fù)制),均不符合邏輯。

46. A。

解析:定好的票需要郵寄給你,這需要一定的時日,所以要盡可能提前(in advance)預(yù)定。in case意為“萬一”;in order意為“有條理”;in turn意為“輪流”,三項均不合句意。

47. D。

解析:此處需要一情態(tài)動詞,意思吻合最關(guān)鍵,這里表示除了網(wǎng)上構(gòu)票外,還“可以”通過其他途徑購票,所以選may最合適。ought to意為“應(yīng)該”;must意為“必須”;will意為“將要”,都不符合句子要求。

48. B。

解析:根據(jù)下文“經(jīng)過兩年維修和重建”來看,此處需要“重新營業(yè)”這個意思,故其他三個答案是錯誤的。

49. D。

解析:possibility表“可能性”;change 表“變化”;development表“進展;發(fā)展”;三個單詞在和show搭配時均不能體現(xiàn)維修的目的。此處談Space Mountain兩年維修的目的是為了提升show effect“展覽的效果”,即它的可參觀性。

50. C。

解析:此處建議帶小朋友的游客盡量在早晨去Fantasyland,后面是提出該建議的理由,因為是比較明顯的理由,所以用as。because of不能接句子,when引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句,since是“既然”的意思。

51. C。

解析:上文提到有幾個吸引游客的景點,此處專門提示其中最好的兩個地方,所以用especially。unluckily意為“不幸地”;unexpectedly意為“出乎意料地”;normally意為“正常地”。

52. B。

解析:此處指這個景點客容量較小,很容易出現(xiàn)游客扎堆現(xiàn)象,這樣就很可能會等很長時間,所以用wait(名詞,表示“等待的時間”),且與43題處的話題吻合。

53. A。

解析:此處需要一承上啟下的轉(zhuǎn)折,if not意為“如果不”,指如果不參觀前面的景點,那么就……。其他選項起不到此作用,in a word意為“總而言之”;as a result意為“結(jié)果”;what’s more意為“而且”。

54. D。

解析:where引導(dǎo)地點狀語從句;how一般表方式。這里是時間狀語從句,在剛開門時,直奔Adventureland and New Orleans Square。

55. D。

解析:最后一部分談參觀各景點的順序,最后一句為最后一處,所以用“then(然后)”最合適。

People like different kinds of vacations. Some go camping. They swim, fish, cook over a fire and sleep outside. Others like to stay at a hotel in an exciting city. They go shopping all day and go dancing all night. Or maybe they go sightseeing to places such as Disneyland, the Tai Mahan or the Louver.

Some people are bored with sightseeing trips. They don’t want to be “tourists”. They want to have an adventure--a surprising and exciting trip. They want to learn something and maybe help people too. How can they do this? Some travel companies and environmental groups are planning special adventures. Sometimes these trips are difficult and full of hardships, but they’re a lot of fun. One organization, Earth watch, sends small groups of volunteers to different parts of the world. Some volunteers spend two weeks and study the environment. Others work with animals. Others learn about people of the past.

Would you like an adventure in the Far North? A team of volunteers is leaving from Mormons, Russia. The leader of this trip is a professor from Alaska. He’s worried about chemicals from factories. He and the volunteers will study this pollution in the environment. If you like exercise and cold weather, this is a good trip for you. Volunteers need ski sixteen kilometers every day.

Do you enjoy ocean animals? You can spend two to four weeks in Hawaii. There, you can teach language to dolphins. Dolphins can follow orders such as “Bring me the large ball.” They also understand opposites. How much more can they understand? It will be exciting to learn about these intelligent animals. Another study trip goes to Washington State and follows orcas. We call orcas “killer Whale”, but they’re really dolphins—the largest kind of dolphin. This beautiful animal travels together in family groups. They move through the ocean with their mothers, grandmothers and great-grandmothers. Ocean pollution is chasing their lives. Earth watch is studying how this happens.

Are you interested in history? Then Greece is the place for your adventure. Thirty-five hundred years ago a volcano exploded there, on Santorum. This explosion was more terrible than Karate or Mount Saint Helens. But today we know a lot about the way of life of the people from that time. There are houses, kitchens, and paintings as interesting as those in Pompeii. Today teams of volunteers are learning more about people from the past.

Do you want a very different vacation? Do you want to travel far, work hard and learn a lot? Then an Earth watch vacation is for you.

The Tai Mahan may be _______.

A. a shopping center      B. a hotel        

C. a dancing hall    D. a place of interest

From the passage, on an adventure trip, people ______.

A. may not spend much time on sightseeing

B. won’t meet some difficulties or hardships

C. can’t enjoy them

D. can’t learn something

If you want to learn something about people of the past, you can _______.

A. join the team to Hawaii

B. join the team to the Far North

C. join the team to Washington

D. join the team to Greece

The word intelligent in paragraph 4 means _______.

A. exciting     B. beautiful

C. large   D. clever

Which of the following is false?

A. Some people find sightseeing trips boring.

B. Earth watch is planning all these special adventures.

C. The number of orcas is decreasing.

D. 3 volcano explosions in all broke out 3, 500 years ago in Greece.

Disneyland may look like a straightforward theme park. But there’s a secret world hidden behind the balloons, castles and cotton candy — a place where wild cats wander at midnight, Mickey Mouse hides in the wallpaper, and movie stars drink martinis behind closed doors.

Cat security — It’s not easy keeping the ground of Disneyland spotless, as well as free of unwanted pests. Every night after closing time, 200 wild cats were freed into the park to help keep the rodent(嚙齒)population under control. Though Disney doesn’t comment on the matter, rumor(傳聞)has it that the cat taskforce dates back to 1957. After unsuccessful attempts to chase them out of the park, Disney decided to put the cats to work instead.

Hidden Mickeys—At Disneyland the round-eared Mickey Mouse image is everywhere. But you can also see hundreds of “Hidden Mickeys” across the park, which are very difficult to spot: they’re camouflage (偽裝)in the architecture and landscaping as well as in the smallest stylistic details.

Cocktail(雞尾酒)behind closed doors—Disney is dry unless you can manage to get your name on the list at Club 33. The secret cocktail club has a limited membership of just 487 and a waiting list of approximately 14 years. Walt Disney designed the club as a special space to entertain possible investors; since then, it has hosted US presidents, film stars and foreign guests.

Always on stage—At Disneyland, a doorman isn’t a doorman, he is a “cast member”. So are the large numbers of cashiers, painters, ride operators, gardeners and performers. All “cast members” are trained to follow a specific rule that helps preserve the Disney magic. On the list of dos and don’ts? Never break character. If wearing a costume that belongs in Fantasyland, don’t set foot in Tomorrowland—it might Confuse visitors or break the park’s orderly image. Cast members have a Disney “l(fā)ook book” that details the fresh-faced ideal—no long fingernails, beards, or unnaturally colored hair allowed. It’s a return to Walt Disney’s All-American standards: when the park opened even guests with facial hair weren’t allowed entrance.

1.The reason why there are many wild cats in Disneyland is that ________.

A. they’re in charge of the cleaning of the park

B. they’re allowed to act as cleaners and guards

C. they have to keep watch in the daytime

D. they have a comfortable house to live in

2.From the passage we can know that in Disneyland “Hidden Mickeys” are _________.

A. small          B. obvious          C. everywhere       D. dishonest

3.What do the underlined Words “Disney is dry” in paragraph 4 mean?

A. It’s easy to join the Club 33.           B. The ground keeps dry.

C. It doesn’t often rain.                 D. Drinking alcohol is forbidden.

4. From the last paragraph, we can know the workers in Disneyland _______.

A. must know the dos and don’t

B. needn’t have their facial hair shaved

C. can wear unnaturally colored hair

D. mustn’t get in Tomorrowland

As societies develop,their members start to see things not so much according to what they need,but according to what they want.When people have enough money,these wants become demands.

Now,it’s important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies(策略).There are various ways of doing this.One way at supermarkets(超市),for example,is to interview(采訪)customers while they’re doing their shopping.They can be asked what they prefer to buy and then the results of the research can be studied.This provides information on which to base future marketing strategies.It’s also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public,as if they were ordinary customers,to get an idea of how customers act.

Another way to get information from customers is to give them something.For example,some fast food restaurants give away tickets in magazines or on the street that permit customers to get part of their meal for nothing.As well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money,it also allows the managers to get a feel for where to attract customers and which age-groups to attract.

Another strategy used at some well-known parks such as Disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work,touring the park dressed as Mickey Mouse or something like that.This provides them with a perfect chance to examine the scene and watch the customers without being noticed.

1.The text is designed for ________.

A.managers                              B.salesmen

C.researchers                               D.customers

2.Which of the following can help managers get useful information?

A.Visiting customers themselves.

B.Giving customers free food on the street.

C.Visiting parks as ordinary customers.

D.Asking customers questions at supermarkets.

3.What does the word“this”underlined in the last sentence refer to?

A.Visiting Disneyland.

B.Wearing attractive clothes.

C.Acting Mickey Mouse.

D.Dressing up and walking around.

4.The main idea of the text is ________.

A.how to do market research

B.how to develop marketing strategies

C.how to find out customers’ social needs

D.how to encourage customers to spend more money
