在人际关系问题上我们不要太浪漫主义。人是很有趣的，往往在接触一个人时首先看到的都是他或她的优点。这一点颇像是在餐馆里用餐的经验。开始吃头盘或冷碟的时候，印象很好。吃头两个主菜时，也是赞不绝口。愈吃愈趋于冷静，吃完了这顿宴席，缺点就都找出来了。于是转喜为怒，转赞美为责备挑剔，转首肯为摇头。这是因为，第一，开始吃的时候你正处于饥饿状态，而饿了吃糠甜如蜜，饱了吃蜜也不甜。第二，你初到一个餐馆，开始举筷时有新鲜感，新盖的茅房三天香，这也可以叫做"陌生化效应"吧。

PARTⅡPROOFREADINGANDERRORCORRECTION答案：^specialcommittees→orspecialcommittees

【详细解答】固定搭配on...occasions答案：rely^→relyon
【详细解答】固定搭配relyonsb.todosomething答案：makeout→make
【详细解答】makeout意思是"辨认出"，而此处意思是"对...做详细的研究"，故用"makedetailedstudiesof..."即可。
6.答案：its→their
【详细解答】此处指代的是"investigations",故用复数。
7.答案：^public→thepublic
【详细解答】the+adj.可表示某一类人，此处意思是"面向公众"，故应用"thepublic"。
8.答案：nevertheless→therefore(thus
【详细解答】此处不是表示意思的转折，而是与前文构成因果关系，故可改为therefore或thus。

9.答案：citizenry→citizens
【详细解答】citizenry为集体名词，意为"全体公民"，且为旧用法；citizens指公民，强调具体的群体。
10.答案：these→those
【详细解答】those指代witnesses,即指代名词复数做定语从句的先行词，而these不行。

TEXTA
短文大意：美国总统布什签订了一份农业议案，旨在提高农业补贴。围绕这一问题，指出发展中国家、穷国家希望富国给予其在农业贸易上公平竞争的机会，暗示布什的这一举措对穷国来说是件令人沮丧之事。
16．答案：C
【参考译文】相比之下，哪里的农民接受政府补贴多？
【试题分析】本题为细节题。
【详细解答】短文第一段中说："FarmersinEurope,theU.S.andJapanareluckier:theyreceivemassivegovernmentsubsidiesintheformofguaranteedpricesordirecthandouts."其意思是说欧洲、美国及日本的农民更幸运些，他们接受了大量的政府补贴，如有保障的价格或者直接的救济，可见欧洲位于首位。后文又有"...pushesU.S.agriculturalsupportclosetocrazyEuropeanlevels."指的是新农业议案使得美国的农业资助接近于疯狂的欧洲水平，说明欧洲的农民接受政府补贴最多。
17．答案：A
【参考译文】除了经济上的考虑之外，布什签的新农业议案背后还有什么动机？

【试题分析】本题为细节题。
【详细解答】短文第一段末尾说："It’salsodesignedtohelptheRepublicanPartywincontroloftheSenateinNovember’smidtermelections."原来，议案还旨在帮组布什所在的民主党赢得对参议院的控制权，因而它有"党派(partisan的动机"。
18．答案：A
【参考译文】全文试图表达的意思是什么？
【试题分析】本题为主旨题。
【详细解答】文中第二段引用乌干达财政部长的话："Whatwewantisfortherichcountriestoletuscompete."，即希望富国能让他们竞争；第三段讲了肯尼亚园艺工业曾经的发展及如今所面临的贸易障碍，从此得出一个教训："Thelesson:thethirdworldcanprosperiftherichworldgivesitafairgo"，意思是富国若给一个公平的机会，第三世界就会繁荣起来，这与选项A相符。
19．答案：C
【参考译文】对美国新的农业补贴的态度如何？
【试题分析】本题为判断推理题。
【详细解答】可从最后一段中的几句话得出答案。"ThisiswhatmakesBush’sdecisiontoincreasefarmsubsidieslastmonthallthemoredepressing."说明布什的决定让人沮丧；另外，最后一句"Bush’shandoutlastmonthmakesalieofAmerica’scommitmenttothosetalksandhispersonaldevotiontofreetrade."实质上是批评了布什是对其在多哈(Doha会谈上所作的承诺的撒谎。因此的态度是"批判性的"。
TEXTB
短文大意：陈述了"在当今美国，人们的工作时间延长了"这一事实并分析了原因。
20．答案：C
【参考译文】在美国，工作时间的延长是______。

【试题分析】为细节题。
【详细解答】第一段未指出："Sincethe1970s,however,thehoursclockedupbyAmericanworkershaverisen,toanaverageof42thisyearinmanufacturing."意思是美国工人记录的工作时间在制造业上提高了平均42小时（每周）；短文第三段又说："Severalstudiessuggestthatsomethingsimilarishappeningoutsidemanufacturing."这说明相似的情况也出现在制造业之外，后文举例说明经理和律师（executivesandlawyers）的工作时间也延长了。因此可判断在美国各界都出现了工作时间延长的现象，答案C正确。
21．答案：B
【参考译文】根据第三段内容，下面哪一个可能是工作时间延长的后果之一？
【试题分析】本题属于判断推理题。
【详细解答】第三段告诉我们：在德国，随着工人收入的增加，他们可以减少工作而提高生活标准，而美国并不这样认为。句子"Parentsspendlesstimewiththeirchildren,whomaybeleftaloneathomeforlonger.Isitjustacoincidencethatjuvenilecrimeisontherise?"告诉我们：美国青少年犯罪现象上升与父母在家时间少有联系，因而它可能是人们工作时间延长的一种后果。
22．答案：A
【参考译文】下面哪个是提出的工作时间延长的原因？
【试题分析】本题属于推断题。
【详细解答】从短文倒数第二段可判断出答案。该段第一句告诉我们：上述答案均不能解释保持了几个世纪缩短的工作时间为何又回弹了。句子"Perhapsculturaldifferencesthelastrefugeofthedefeatedeconomistareatplay"说明Culturaldifferences是经济学家们所认为的原因。接下来在文中分析："Perhapsclevermarketinghasensuredthatbasicneeds...expandcontinuously"，加上购物也成了人们的消遣之一，因而人们日常需求的扩大是人们要求工作时间长的原因。

TEXTC
短文大意：以散文的笔调讲述了发生在捕猎女孩March与一只狐狸之间的故事。那只狡猾的狐狸似乎知道捕猎女孩要捕它，却从她眼皮下慢慢地走开了，女孩被狐狸看她的眼神震住了，她决心要找到它。
23．答案：B
【参考译文】故事开始，狐狸似乎是怎样的，下面哪个不能用来描述狐狸？
【试题分析】本题属于推断题。
【详细解答】短文第一段中的描述可让我们筛选出正确答案。句子"Thefoxreallyexasperatedthemboth"说明狐狸激怒了他们捕猎女孩，故而狐狸是让人恼火的(annoying；"Andhewassosly"意指狐狸狡猾（cunning）；当March用枪射他时，狐狸却毫不在意："Buthemadenoaccountofthis"，而且狐狸"...seemedtocircumventthegirlsdeliberately"似乎故意包围着捕猎女孩们，这些都暗示狐狸带有挑衅性（defiant）。从文中不能判断狐狸是凶猛的(fierce，故选B。
24．答案：D
【参考译文】随着故事的发展，March开始感觉被什么符咒镇住了？
【试题分析】本题属于细节题，旨在考词义spellbound。
【详细解答】句子"Shewasspellboundsheknewheknewher."告诉我们：当狐狸的眼睛遇到March的眼睛时，March一下子象被"符咒镇住"（spellbound）了，她知道狐狸认识她。故答案是：fox。
25．答案：A
【参考译文】渐渐地，March似乎处于一种什么样的状态？
【试题分析】本题属于细节题。
【详细解答】第五段中出现"walkedabstractedlyabout"和"mindlessness"，说明March心神不宁、心不在焉，与blankness相似。

26．答案：C
【参考译文】故事结尾，March和狐狸之间似乎出现了一种什么样的感觉？
【试题分析】本题属于推理题。
【详细解答】最后一段告诉我们，March一心被fox所占领，她很执拗地想找到fox，句子如："Shewaspossessedbyhim,...shefelthiminvisiblymasterherspirit"等告诉我们March和fox似乎很了解对方，这与答案intimacy（亲密）相近。
27．答案：A
【参考译文】整篇文章给人一种什么样的印象？
【试题分析】本题属于推断题。
【详细解答】以细腻的笔调将故事娓娓道来，一个活生生的狐狸形象及感情丰富且固执的女猎手跃然纸上，这些都是通过描述猎手的心理活动、狐狸的表情行为及对周围环境的渲染所造成的。通篇文章充满了一种神秘的气氛。

只有在我过于劳累，在我长时间无间断地工作，在我感到内心空虚，需要填补的时候，我才寂寞。而有时在我巡回演讲后回家时，在我见了许多人，讲了许多话，且经历多得需要清理时，我才寂寞。于是有那么一小会儿感觉房子又大又空，我都不知道我的自我藏在哪儿了。于是我会给植物浇浇水，或者将它们再挨个儿瞅瞅，好像它们是人一样。这样我才慢慢地重新找回自我。好大一会儿，我看着水浪从喷泉中喷涌而出，但只有当世界在我身边逐渐消逝时，那一时刻才会到来，自我又从内心深处的无意识中冒出来，带来我最近的种种经历，让我探究，慢慢领会。
