B．havebeenaffectedC．hadbeenaffected

D．Strictbutcaring.答案與解析1．C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段倒數(shù)第二句可知，校園團(tuán)聚的活動(dòng)內(nèi)容包括以前的老師們講述過去的故事。2．B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可推斷，當(dāng)年這位英語(yǔ)老師對(duì)學(xué)生要求極其嚴(yán)格，因此很多學(xué)生不喜歡她的教學(xué)方式，心理上對(duì)這位老師存在排斥情緒。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段內(nèi)容，特別是該段最后兩句可知，雖然學(xué)生們畢業(yè)離開了，但是這位老教師仍然隨時(shí)了解學(xué)生們遇到的一切事情。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段第一句可知，認(rèn)為，越是被逼得緊的學(xué)生越有可能取得成功。推理判斷題。通過的講話可知，她對(duì)學(xué)生要求非常嚴(yán)格，但同時(shí)她關(guān)心每一個(gè)學(xué)生的成長(zhǎng)和進(jìn)步。故選擇D項(xiàng)。Ⅲ.閱讀填句Areyoucooperative?Areyouagoodteammember?Ifso,thefuturemayholdmoreforyouthanyouthink.__1__That'shappeninginthoseareasofbusinessanddataprocessingwhereonepersonandacomputercanreplaceateamofworkers.But,elsewhere,teamworkisverymuchalive.Hightechnologyhasledtoanewtypeofteamworkinanumberoffields,includingadvertising,scientificresearch,engineeringdesign,architectureandoceanexploration.Throughcomputernetworking,scientists,engineersandtechniciansatdifferentlocations—oftenthousandsofmilesapart—canworkonthesameprojectatExamples—Anengineeringteamcannowdesignandtryoutarobotsystem,anewmanufacturingprocessoranentirefactory—beforeitismedicalteamcansimulate(模擬)adangerousoperationbeforeperformingitonapatient.Ofcourse,computer-assistedteameffortdoesn'tendwithinvestigationand“CAD-CAM—computer-aideddesignandmanufacture—isbreakingdownbarriersbetweentraditionaldesignandmanufacturingfunctions，”explainsDr.PrakashRao,anengineeringmanageratGeneralElectric.“Interdisciplinary(跨學(xué)科的)teamsandengineersfollowaproductfromconcepttoproduction.Everythingisinterconnectedlikeanetwork.”Sometimes,acomputer-aidedeffortcanextendbeyondproduction.AteamthatproducesrobotsmayusethemtoexplorespaceandoceanA．Theycanexchangeideas，tryoutdifferentdesignsandtesttheirresults.B．Inthefuture,teamworkwillbehighlightedbytheintroductionofnewtechnology.C．Anarchitecturalteamcandothesamewithabuildingorabridge.D．Itendsintheproductswhichareextensionsofthetraditionaldesign.E.Itnowusuallycontinuesintoactualdesign，manufacturingandtesting.F.Hightechnology，somepredicted，wouldmaketeamworkathingofthepast.G.Forhigh-technologyteamwork,thefutureseemslimitless.答案1—5FACEGⅣ.短文改錯(cuò)(2013·東北三校第二次聯(lián)考)LiYuehadbeenawardedthetitleof“StarStudentoftheWeek”forwhichshedidfortheahotafternoonoflastSaturday，LiYue,wenttodowntownandwalkedfromonestoretoanother，lookingforthecostumeswewouldwearinthesingingtherestofuswasenjoyingourleisuretimeincoolandcomfortablerooms，shespentthewholeafternoonsearchingandshefoundtherightmovedbyhisefforts，wetriedourbestandwonthefirstprize
