（B）

We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.

“You could win prizes,?? our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing, “The first prize is ten dollars. You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster.”

We studied the board critically. Some of us looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard, rocking the sheets to the right or left while we conjured up our designs. Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. We had plans for that ten-dollar grand prize, each and every one of us. I’m going to spend mine on candies, one hopeful would announce, while another practiced looking serious, wise and rich.

Everyone in the class made a poster. Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins, while others used nothing but colored construction paper. Some of us used big designs, and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one corner of our poster and let the space draw the viewer?s attention to it. Some of us would wander past the good students? desks and then retu rn to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. It was yet another grown-up trick of the sort they seemed especially fond of, making all of us believe we had a fair chance, and then always —always — rewarding the same old winners.

I believe I drew a sailboat, but I can?t say that with any certainty. I made it. I admired it. I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen, and then I turned it in.

Minutes passed.

No one came along to give me the grand prize, and then someone distracted me, and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.

I was still sitting at my desk, thinking, What poster? when the teacher gave me an

envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.

22. What was the teacher?s requirement for the poster?

A. It must appear in time.

B. It must be done in class.

C. It must be done on a construction sheet.

D. It must include the words on the blackboard.

23. The underlined phrase in paragraph 3 most probably means ________.

A. formed an idea for

B. made an outline for

C. made some space for

D. chose some colors for

24. After seeing the good students? designs, some students ________.

A. loved their own designs more

B. thought they had a fair chance

C. put their own designs in a corner

D. thought they would not win the prize

25. We can infer from the passage that the author ________.

A. enjoyed grown-up tricks very much

B. loved poster competitions very much

C. felt surprised to win the competition

D. became wise and rich after the competition

（C）

Pacing and Pausing

Sara tried to befriend her old friend Steve?s new wife, but Betty never seemed to have anything to say. While Sara felt Betty didn?t hold up her end of the conversation, Betty complained to Steve that Sara never gave her a chance to talk. The problem had to do with expectations about pacing and pausing.

Conversation is a turn-taking game. When our habits are similar, ther e?s no problem. But if our habits are different, you may start to talk before I?m finished or fail to take your turn when I?m finished. That?s what was happening with Betty and Sara.

It may not be coincidental that Betty, who expected relatively longer pauses between turns, is British, and Sara, who expected relatively shorter pauses, is American. Betty often felt interrupted by Sara. But Betty herself became an interrupter and found

herself doing most of the talking when she met a visitor from Finland. And Sara had a hard time cutting in on some speakers from Latin America or Israel.

The general phenomenon, then, is that the small conversation techniques, like pacing and pausing, lead people to draw conclusions not about conversational style but about personality and abilities. These habitual differences are often the basis for dangerous stereotyping (思维定势). And these social phenomena can have very personal consequences. For example, a woman from the southwestern part of the US went to live in an eastern city to take up a job in personnel. When the Personnel Department got together for meetings, she kept searching for the right time to break in —and never found it. Although back home she was considered outgoing and confident, in Washington she was viewed as shy and retiring. When she was evaluated at the end of the year, she was told to take a training course because of her inability to speak up.

Tha t?s why slight differences in conversational style —tiny little things like microseconds of pause — can have a great effect on one?s life. The result in this cause was a judgment of psychological problems — even in the mind of the woman herself, who really wondered what was wrong with her and registered for assertiveness training.

26. What did Sara think of Betty when talking with her?

A. Betty was talkative.

B. Betty was an interrupter.

C. Betty did not take her turn.

D. Betty paid no attention to Sara.

27. According to the passage, who are likely to expect the shortest pauses between turns?

A. Americans.

B. Israelis.

C. The British.

D. The Finns.

28. We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. communication breakdown results from short pauses and fast pacing

B. women are unfavorably stereotyped in eastern cities of the US

C. on e?s inability to speak up is culturally determined sometimes

D. one should receive training to build up one?s confidence

29. The underlined word “assertiveness” in the last paragraph probably means ________.

A. being willing to speak one?s mind

B. being able to increase one?s power

C. being ready to make one?s own judgment

D. being quick to express one?s ideas confidently

（D）

While it may be unlikely for a computer to write a best seller, a technology expert has created a computer program that writes its own fiction stories with minimal user input. The program, called MEXICA, is the first to generate original stories based on computerized representations of emotions and tensions between characters.

An Internet survey was carried out to see the popularity of the computer-generated stories, other computerized stories and stories written solely by a human. The result was that readers ranked MEXICA stories highest for flow and coherence, structure, content, suspense and overall quality. Rafael Pérezy Pérez, the creator of MEXICA, explained that a story might begin with something as basic as, “The enemy wounded the knight. The princess cured the knight. The knight killed the enemy. The knight rewarded the princess. The end.”

The program reads characters as variables (变量) and assigns a numerical value, between a continuum (连续体) from -3 to +3, to emotional connections that are defined as either amorous or non-amorous. The numerical value is equivalent to the degree of emotion, with -3 being intense hate and +3 being intense love. The program also understands story tension, such as linking the word “wounded” with tension. This too is assigned a numerical value.

Once these clusters of emotional links and tensions are established, the program begins what is called an “engagement reflection cycle”. Basically this involves searching a database of story actions and other happenings, which are called “atoms”, and determines the best match for the characters and contexts for that moment.

The process repeats itself again and again until the system can no longer make any matches. At this point, the computer analyzes the story for coherence and “interestingness”. The program views a story as interesting when tension levels increase and fall throughout the piece. If the program finds that the story is boring or incoherent in places, it will replace or insert atoms until a version is thought to be satisfactory.

30. What can we know about MEXICA from the passage?

A. It is a computer program that can write fiction stories on its own.

B. It is a computer program created by Rafael Pérezy Pérez.

C. It is blamed for low quality among many other descriptors.

D. The stories it has written is not very popular among readers.

31. What is basically needed for MEXICA to start to write a story?

A. The beginning and the end of the story should be provided.

B. The background of the story needs to be keyed in.

C. The human operator should come up with a simple storyline.

D. Emotions and tensions between characters should be determined.

32. How does the computer system describe the characters in its story?

A. Characters in the story are given different numerical values.

B. Characters are developed according to the tension preset.

C. Characters are designed by using the language MEXICA can understand.

D. Each character is valued for its value in the construction of the story.

33. What are “atoms” understood by the computer system?

A. The tensions preset for the story.

B. The characters designed for the story.

C. Episodes of action of the story.

D. Events becoming of the characters.

第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余项。（说明：E请填涂AB；F填涂CD；G填涂ABC）

Before going outside in the morning, many of us check a window thermometer (温度计)f o r t h e t e m p e r a t u r e.T h i s h e l p s u s d e c i d e w h a t t o w e a r.

34 . We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator. We want it a certain hotness in the oven. If we don?t feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.

Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale. Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide. 35 .

The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury inside a clear glass tube. As mercury (or any other liquid) becomes hot, it expands. As it gets colder, it contracts. That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube. 36 .

First, take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap; fill the bottle with colored water. Tap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw through the nail hole.

37 .

Finally, place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw. Now you can see the water lever easily.

38 . As the temperature goes down, the water will contract, and the lever in the straw will come down. Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week.

A.Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will

work.

B.People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around the

world.

C.We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other

things in our daily lives.

D.The water will rise in the straw. As the temperature of the air goes up, the water will

expand and rise even higher.

E.Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in the same way

when they are heated or cooled.

F.Take wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right

where the straw is struck into the cap to seal them together.

G.They label these in different ways. On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32

degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degree and boils at 100 degrees.

Creating good habits can be as tough as breaking bad habits. From my experience, one of the most important factors 1 make forming a new habit hard is that a lot of willpower 2 (require), at least in the beginning, and that alone can prevent many people correctly developing their desired habits.

Now instead of just using willpower and reminding 3 (you) to start the new habit each day, why don?t you just link it to an existing one? I have done 4 experience. It started with just 20 pushups (俯卧撑), something easy. So before I showered each day, I would do the pushups. 5 a couple of days, I increased the amount just to make it a bit more challenging.

Gradually, over the course of about 3 months, I?m now doing 100 pushups. And as the habit grew stronger, it got easier to do so 6 (natural). Now I know the habit is pretty much ingrained (根深蒂固), for I feel like something is missing 7 I don?t do this before showering. I found it pretty easy 8 (create) this habit and not much willpower was involved.

I think the key, apart from using an 9 (exist) habit, is to start out with something really easy. Once that starts becoming part of your 10 (day) routine, add on to it.

Lesson 36 NCE Book 3

We are 1 than we used to be. In the nineteenth century, a novelist would bring his story to a conclusion by presenting his readers with 2

As we know, when senior students finish their school, most of their reference books are thrown away, which are still in good condition. How a great waste it is!

I suggest that students must recycle all these books. On the one hand, recycling them can save a lot of natural resource, which are used to make textbooks. On the other hand, the notes in the books are helpful to whoever need them.

In fact, recycling textbooks has been increasing popular in such countries like America and Australia. We should learn from them, but make every effort to build energy-saving society. In my opinion, it is of much benefit from our present and our future.

Tapescript:

M: Young people are given too much freedom nowadays, and as a result they have lost respect for their parents and elders in general.

M: Sounds like they really trusted you.

W: Yeah. After I left school and started to work as a nurse, I became economically independent.

M: Do you get along well with them?

W: Yes. Many young people today say they have nothing in common with their parents.

Answer: On the weekend, they don?t want me to go to Internet cafes even though I?m

someone, they don?t want me to go out with them. It?s ridiculous.

Dear Peter,

How are you doing?

Having received/read your email, I learn that your uncle Smith is coming to my city for a conference. Many thanks for the chocolates that you will ask him to bring me.

With regard to your request, I?m more than happy to meet your uncle at the airport at 11:30 a.m., December 12. Please tell him t hat I?ll raise the welcome board, which reads “Smith is welcome” and stand in front of the arrival gate to wait for him. I?ll wait until I meet him. Upon my meeting him, I?ll contact you as soon as possible. I?ll try my best/do what I can to make your uncle feel at home here.

I am eagerly looking forward to his visit to our city.

Yours,
