【例1】 （2006年全国卷Ⅰ第34题） ——I wonder if I could possibly use your car for tonight? —— . I’m not using it anyhow. A.Sure, go ahead B.I don’t know C.Yes, indeed D.I don’t care 【解析】 A 该空表示“请便、自取”。如果只知go ahead表示往前走，不知其有“自取”的新含义极易误选。 【例2】 （2006年福建卷第27题） If it were not for the fact that she sing, I would invite her to the party. A. couldn’t B.shouldn’t C.can’t D.might not 【解析】 C 由语境逻辑可知，她不能唱好歌为真实语气。但If it were not for和would invite易误导考生将该空也考虑为虚拟语气。
【例3】 （2006年江西卷第28题） It is said that dogs will keep you for as long as you want when you are feeling lonely. A. safety B. company C. house D. friend 【解析】 B 分析语境不难发现，语空表“陪伴”，这正是新考纲的一个知识点。 【评说】 以上试题注重考查新词汇、新短语、新语法，主要是为了考查考生接受新知识、掌握新知识和运用新知识的能力。
（2）结构新为考改扬旗
【例1】 （2006年全国卷Ⅰ第35题） Mary, here-everybody else, stay where you are. A.come B.comes C.to come D.coming 【解析】 A Mary为呼语，故该句为祈使句，不少考生不能识别其祈使句性质，认为这是一个一般现在时的句子，故误选为B。
【例2】 （2006年福建卷第25题） ——How long do you think it will be China sends a manned spaceship to the moon? ——Perhaps two or three years. A.when B.until C.that D.before 【解析】 D 该题干来自于It + be +时段+before...句型，主句用将来时，从句用一般现在时。本题因属特殊疑问句，且又增加插入语do you think，故考生无法追根求源弄清其原始句型，而造成误选。 【评说】 答题时，考生应学会用追根求源的理念将前置、后置、倒装、强调等创新结构还原成正常结构，从而达到句子化繁为简的目的。

第1部分 Life’s Little Instruction Book 生命的小小说明书 Tiger Woods’s are attached1. Tara Lipinski’s definitely2 are not. What are we talking about? Earlobes3—those soft little bits of flesh4 at the bottom5 of a person’s ears. Notice how Tiger’s earlobes are attached to the side of his head. But Tara’s are detached6. Her earlobes hang free. Which type of earlobe do you have—attached or detached? Grab7 a mirror and check it out8. Like the color of a tiger’s fur, the shape of your earlobes is caused by a difference in a single gene. Earlobe shape is a human characteristic9, or trait10. We each have thousands of genes that control thousands of different traits. The instructions for some traits, like earlobe shape, are found in just one gene. Other traits are the result of many genes acting together. Has anyone ever said to you,“You have your mother’s smile” or“your father’s nose”? You have many traits that are very similar11to your parents’ traits because you inherited12your genes from them. Half of your genes came from your mother, and half came from your father. Those genes all came together in the cell that eventually13 developed into you. The set of genes that you inherited—your own personal14 set of instructions for life—are unique15. Unless you have an identical twin16, there is no one else on Earth exactly17like you. Even though identical twins are the same genetically18, why might they look somewhat19 different from each other? In Search of20 Genes Where are these genes that control so much of what makes you you?They’re inside almost every cell in your body. If you looked at one of your cells—say, a skin21cell from the tip22of your finger—under a microscope23, you’d notice a dark blob24 near the center. That’s the cell’s nucleus25. Inside the nucleus are long strands26 that are coiled27 up like tiny springs28. These strands are your chromosomes29. There are 46 chromosomes, or 23 pairs, in each cell body. One member of each pair came from your mother. The other member of each pair came from your father. Each of your chromosomes is made up of a substance30 called DNA, which stands for deoxyribonucleic acid31. Scientists know that DNA looks a bit like a spiral staircase32. Now, at last, we’ve found the location33 of the genes. A gene is a particular length of DNA, a specific section34 of the spiral staircase that coils into chromosomes that lie in the nucleus deep within each cell. Working in Pairs Remember the examples of tiger fur color and earlobe shape? A single gene controls each of these traits. Actually35,they’re controlled by a single pair of genes. That’s because people(and tigers)inherit pairs of chromosomes, and therefore36 pairs of genes,from their parents. This means that for each gene on one member of a chromosome pair, there’s a similar gene in the same place on the other member of that chromosome pair. How do these pairs of genes control a trait like earlobe shape? Well, the two genes for this trait that you inherited—one from each of your parents—may be different. Most genes come in slightly37 different forms, called alleles38.Different alleles are instructions for slightly different versions39 of the same trait. Two alleles are involved in40earlobe shape. One is the dominant41 allele, and it calls for detached earlobes. The other is the recessive42allele, which calls for attached earlobes. The dominant allele gets its name from the fact that it can override43 or cover up44 the recessive allele. How does this work in you and other people?If you inherited two dominant alleles for earlobe shape—one from each of your parents—you have detached earlobes. If you inherited one dominant allele and one recessive allele, you still have detached earlobes because the dominant allele overrode the recessive one. However, if you inherited two copies of the recessive form of the gene for earlobe shape, your lobes45 are attached. What traits have you inherited from your parents? Complicating46Factors If all traits were controlled by single pairs of genes, then genetics47, the study of how traits are inherited, would be easy. However, it turns out to be very complicated. Many traits are controlled by more than a single pair of genes, The color of your eyes, for example, is the result of many pairs of genes working together in not very clear cut 48 ways. This fact makes i
