This place was darker than I expected, and, in spite of the rain, dirtier. Used to the life of rural Puerto Rico(波多黎各), I had to adjust to the similarly arranged, aggressive two-dimensionality of New York. Everywhere I looked, my eyes met gray and brown straight-edged buildings with sharp corners and deep shadows. Every few blocks there was a cement(水泥) playground surrounded by chain-link fence.

A girl came out of the building next door, a jump rope in her hand, and she hopped over. “Are you Hispanic?” she asked.“No, I’m Puerto Rican.”“Same thing. Puerto Rican, Hispanic. That’s what we are here.” She skipped a tight circle, stopped abruptly, and shoved the rope in my direction. “Want a turn?”

“Sure.” I hopped on one leg, then the other.“So, if you’re Puerto Rican, they call you Hispanic?”

“Yeah. Anybody who speaks Spanish.”

I jumpe d a circle, as she had done, but faster. “You mean, if you speak Spanish, you’re Hispanic?”

“Well, yeah. No . . . I mean your parents have to be Puerto Rican or Cuban or something.”

“Okay, your parents are Cuban, let’s say, and you’re born here, but you don’t speak Spanish. Are you Hispanic?”

“I guess so,” she finally said. “It has to do with being from a Spanish country. I mean, you or your parents, like, even if you don’t speak Spanish, you’re Hispanic, you know?” She looked at me uncertainly. But I didn’t know. I’d always been Puerto Rican, and it hadn’t occurred to me that in New York I’d be someone else.

Later, I asked. “Are we Hispanics, Mami?”“Yes, because we speak Spanish.”“But a girl said you don’t have to speak the language to be Hispanic.”“What girl? Where did you meet a girl?”“Outside. She lives in the next building.”“Who said you could go out to the sidewalk? This isn't Puerto Rico. Something could happen to you.”

I listened to Mami’s lecture with depressed eyes and the necessary respect. But inside, I quaked. Two days in New York, and I’d already become someone else. It wasn’t hard to imagine that greater dangers lay ahead.

49. The first paragraph suggests that the author experienced New York as .

A. mysterious and unknowable

B. regular and depressing

C. orderly and appealing

D. impressive and dangerous

50. For the author, being considered Hispanic represents .

A. a restriction to be overcome

B. an opportunity for self-redefinition

C. the loss of her former identity

D. an unavoidable result of movement to a new place

51. The mother refers to “Puerto Rico” in order to impress upon the author that .

A. she should not miss her birthplace

B. New Yorkers may not like newcomers

C. different rules apply to life in New York

D. life was more restricted in Puerto Rico

52. The author’s mood can best be described as

A. angry and confused

B. fearful and uncertain

C. excited but lonely

D. worried and resistant

（C）

“Enough” with the multivitamins already. That’s the message from experts behind three new studies that tackled an often debated question: Do daily multivitamins make you healthier?

“We believe that the case is closed - supplementing(补充) the diet of well-nourished adults with (most) mineral or vitamin supplements has no clear benefit and might even be harmful,” concluded the authors of the editorial summarizing the new research papers. They urge consumers to not ‘waste’ their mon ey on multivitamins. “The ‘stop wasting your money’ means that perhaps you’re spending money on things that won’t protect you long term,” editorial co-author, Dr. Edgar Miller said, “What will protect you is if you spend the money on fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, low fat dairy, and things like that. Exercising would probably be a better use of the money.”

The strong message was based on a review of the findings from three studies that tracked multivitamins link to cancer protection, heart health, and brain and cognitive(认知的) measures. The first study looked at vitamin supplementation’s role in preventing chronic(慢性的) disease. The next study looked at whether long-term use of multivitamins would have any effect on slowing cognitive decline. The third study looked specifically at multivitamins and minerals role in preventing heart attack. “The three studies found no difference in rates of chronic disease, heart attack and the need for hospitalization between vitamin-takers and placebo(安慰剂)-takers.” Dr. Edgar Miller stated.

One expert agreed some nutrient-deficient people may still benefit from multivitamins. “There might be an argument to continue taking a multi(vitamin) to replace or supplement your not healthy diet,” Dr. Edgar Miller added. He also notes that vitamins can benefit people with celiac disease and those who are pregnant.

53. This text is likely to be selected from a book of .

A. medicine

B. education

C. food

D. business

54. Which of the following is NOT Dr. Edgar Miller’s opinion according to the passage?

A. Vitamins should not be used for chronic disease prevention. Enough is enough.

B. Having a balanced diet and exercising would probably be a better way to keep healthy.

C. The three studies do not provide support for use of multivitamin supplements.

D. Taking vitamins to replace or supplement your healthy diet is necessary.

55. What can be inferred from the text?

A. Vitamin supplements have proved harmful to the health of adults.

B. Vitamin supplements are beneficial in certain conditions.

C. Nowadays taking vitamin supplements is common to most people.

D. Daily multivitamins will make you healthier.

56. The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to___________. .

A. persuade

B. describe

C. inform

D. instruct

（D）

More than a century ago, the composer and bandleader John Philip Sousa warned that technology would destroy music, who said, “These talking machines are going to ruin the artistic development of music in this country. When I was a boy … in front of every house in the summer evenings you would find young people together singing the songs of the day or the old songs. Today you hear these terrible machines going night and day. We will not have a vocal cord (声带) left.”

Music has greatly changed in the past hundred years, which has been everywhere in our world: rivers of digital melody flow on the Internet or on disc; MP3 players with forty thousand songs can be put in a back pocket or a purse. Yet, for most of us, music is no longer something we do ourselves, or even watch other people do in front of us. It has become a radically virtual medium, an art without a face.

Ever since Edison invented the phonograph cylinder(留声机), people have been assessing what the medium of recording has done for and to the art of music. Sousa was a spokesman for the party of doom; in the opposite corner are the utopians(乌托邦), who argue that technology has not imprisoned music but liberated it. Before Edison came along, Beethoven’s symphonies could be heard only in select concert halls. Now the recordings carry the man from Bonn to the corners of the earth. Glenn Gould, after renouncing live performance in 1964, predicted that within the century the public concert would disappear into the electronic air.

Having discovered much of my favorite music through LPs and CDs, I am not about to join Sousa’s party. Modern urban environments are often so soulless or ugly that I’m grateful for the humanizing touch of electronic sound. But neither can I accept Gould’s slashing futurism. I want to be aware of technology’s effects, positive and negative. Fortunately, scholars and critics have been methodically exploring this terrain for many decades, trying to figure out exactly what happens when we listen to music with no musicians in the room.

57. The first paragraph is intended to .

A. defend an argument

B. make a prediction

C. criticize an attitude

D. summarized a viewpoint

58. The author’s attitude towards the recorded music may best be described as .

A. dissatisfied

B. defensive

C. optimistic

D. objective

59. The underlined word “terrain” in the last paragraph most nearly means .

A. region

B. subject

C. land

D. distinction

60. The primary purpose of the passage is to .

A. explain different attitudes of scholars and critics

B. defend the view of one group from the criticism of another

C. advocate an unexpected solution to a pressing problem

D. present the key issues in an ongoing debate

61.

It was convinced that historical relics provide evidence about the past. Such conviction was, until recently, reflected in museum displays. Museums used to look - and some still do - much like storage rooms of objects packed together in showcases: good for scholars to study, but not for the average visitor, to whom it

all looked alike.

62.

Recently, however, attitudes towards history and the way it should be presented have become different. The key word in heritage display is now ‘experience’, the more exciting the better and, if possible, involving all the senses. On so called heritage sites computers will soon provide reality experiences, which will present visitors with a vivid image of the period of their choice, in which they themselves can act as if part of the historical environment. Such developments have been criticized by some experts, but the success of many historical theme parks suggests that the majority of the public does not share this opinion.

63.

In a related development, the sharp distinction between museum and heritage sites on the one hand, and theme parks on the other is gradually evaporating(蒸发). They already borrow ideas and concepts from one another. For example, museums have adopted storylines for exhibitions, sites have accepted ‘theming’ as a relevant tool, and theme parks are moving towards more realness and research-based presentations.

64.

Theme parks are undergoing other changes, too, as they try to present more serious social and cultural issues, and move away from fantasy. This development is a response to market forces and exhibits must be both based on artifacts and facts as we know them, and attractively presented. Those who are professionally working in the art of interpreting(诠释) history are thus in a difficult position, as they must manage a narrow course between the demands of ‘evidence’ and ‘attractiveness’, especially given the increasing need in this industry for income making activities.

65.

It could be claimed that in order to make everything in heritage more ‘real’, historical accuracy must be increasingly changed. For example, in the Museum of Natural History in Washington, Neanderthal man is shown making a commanding gesture to his wife. Such presentations tell us more about contemporary understandings of the world than about our ancestors. In fact if the professionals did not provide the interpretation, visitors would do it for themselves, based on their own ideas, misconceptions and prejudices. And no matter how exciting the result, it would contain a lot more bias(偏见) than the presentations provided by experts.

Dear Helen,

Thank you for your email. Now I would like to tell you something about the extra-curricular reading in our school. As a matter of fact, most of the students in our school haven’t realized the importance of reading, especially extra-curricular reading. Therefore, the time and energy devoted to reading are limited. Besides, some students prefer to read comic books, magazines and newspapers rather than classic reading materials.

I think the reasons for such phenomenon are various. First of all, quite a lot of students are burdened with too much homework. Still others haven’t formed a good habit of reading. They would rather spend time on TVs or computer games instead.

However, reading is obviously beneficial to both our life and study, which can not only broaden our horizon but enrich our life as well. So it is quite necessary for us students to take up reading and for teachers to lessen the amount of homework so that we can have more time to read.

Best Wishes.

Yours,

Li Hua
