考查情态动词+have done结构。句意：当我们到达火车站时，列车还没有启动，所以我们本不必匆忙。固定结构：needn't have done表示“本不必做而做了”。结合句意可住答案为D。 【点睛】

情态动词+ have done结构：

1.“must + have + 过去分词”表示对过去发生的事情或状态进行推测,语气比较坚定,通常只用于肯定句.如：It must have rained last night,for the ground is wet.

2.“can / could + have + 过去分词”表示对过去某种情况的怀疑或不确定.can和could一般用于否定句和疑问句,could的语气较can弱.如：He can't have finished the work so soon.

3.“may / might + have + 过去分词”表示对已发生的动作或存在的状态进行不肯定的推测,might的语气比may弱一点.这种结构主要用于肯定句和否定句,疑问句改用can或could.如：They may not have known it beforehand.

4.“need + have + 过去分词”表示过去做了不必做或不需要做的事情,或过去做某事纯属多余.如：I needn't have bought so much wine—only five people came.

5.“should / ought to + have + 过去分词”表示过去本该做某事但没做,其否定式表示过去不该做某事但做了,这种句式含有不满或责备之意,ought to的语气比should强一些.如：

You ought to / should have studied harder.你本应该更努力学习的.（但没有） He oughtn't to / shouldn't have done that.他本来就不该做那件事.（可是做了） 6.“would ＋ have ＋ 过去分词”表示对过去的某种情况进行猜测,或本来要做某事却因某种原因未做成,通常用来说明某一情况,但不像用should或ought to那样含有责备之意.如：

I guess the poet would have been about twenty when she wrote her first poem. Another worker wouldn't have acted like that.

Dear Jim,

Having learned that you'll be a senior high school student, I am delighted. In your last email you mentioned that you were confused about how to study well in your senior high school. Now, I'd like to share my study tips with you.

First, you'd better communicate with your teachers regularly. In this way, they may offer some great advice on both your study and life. Second, why not involve yourself in each class actively, listen to the teacher attentively and take notes carefully so that you can review later? Third, it's a good idea to do your homework on time soon after school, which will help you practice what you have learned and make it fresh in your mind.

I sincerely hope my advice can be helpful to you and that you can enjoy your new school life. Best wishes!

Yours, Li Hua

20. No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world，but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.

In the United Kingdom，about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people：as we get older，many of us will become less mobile，hard of hearing or have falling eyesight．

Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities．Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases．The longer time goes on，the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents．Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people’s attitude towards them．

Disabled people face many physical barriers．Next time you go shopping or to work or to visit friends，imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or onto buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic？ But there are other barriers：prejudice（偏见）can be even harder to break down and ignorance（无知）inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through，so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability，not their disability，which counts．

61．The key word in Paragraph 4 is__________. A. disability B. ignorance C. prejudice D. barriers 62

．

The

last

most

C. The whole society should pay due attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people.

D. There no longer exists prejudice against the disabled. . It can be concluded from the passage that______． A. we should try our best to prevent disablement B. both physical and mental barriers are easy to break down C. we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled

D. the able-bodied people will never fully understand the disabled 参：

21. Whether it’s a carol（圣诞颂歌）service or an evening of karaoke in the pub, many people

will enjoy a good old singsong this Christmas. Singing aloud will not just lift the spirits---it’s good for your physical health as well. Filling the lungs（肺）with air, increasing the heart rate and getting blood pumping round the body faster can all help our physical health.

For the past few years Heart Research UK has been Funding a Christmas campaign aimed at getting people singing, simply for the benefit it can bring. The organizer of the campaign says singing is a safe, simple and social activity that everyone can enjoy. “Singing is linked to long life, stress reduction, and general health protection. It also brings a great amount of happiness. It is impossible to sing well with a long face because it affects your pitch（音高）.”

Professor Graham Welch, who leads the International Music Education Research Centre at the University of London, has spent more than 30 years studying the effects of singing. He says that singing is a form of exercise. It means we’re also having a strong aerobic activity（有氧运动）when we’re singing, which results in increasing the feeling of pleasure while decreasing that of stress.

“And communal（共同的）singing—like in a singing group, a church service or even a singsong in the pub—helps improve our sense of self-respect. It increases our sense of satisfaction with ourselves, a greater sense of feeling included. ”

Helen Astrid, a singing teacher, also sees the great effects that singing brings. “It lifts us up on a spiritual level, it helps our self-respect, and it’s great for all ages from small kids to grannies—you can have a good sing and let your hair down.”

But she warns people not to have too many beers or glasses of wine, though a glass may help them gather courage before taking to the stage during the holidays. 59. Heart Research UK holds a campaign to __________. A. encourage people to sing for God at Christmas B. study the effects of singing on people

C. get people to sing and improve their health D. bring happiness to people during holidays

60. What are the benefits of singing according to Graham Welch? a. Singers’ living longer.

b. Singers’ general health protection. c. Singers’ feeling happier. d. Singers’ stress reduced.

e. Singer’s self-respect improved.

A. a, b, c B. b, c, d C. c, d, e D. a, b, e

61. The underlined part “let your hair down” probably means __________. A. feel at ease B. protect yourself C. dress casually D. cover your nervousness 62. What can we infer from the passage? A. Singing at Christmas is good for health. B. In a low mood one is not able to sing well. C. Experts have disagreement on singing.

D. Singing is the same as other aerobic activities. 63. Which is the best title of the passage? A. Karaoke—Best Place for Singing! B. Christmas—Best Time for Singing! C. Singing—Healthy but Difficult D. For Health—Let’s Sing!
