But I was 21 into stillness by what I saw. Mother, seated at the far end of the sofa, was 22 , with the second--hand green typewriter on the table. She told me that she couldn't 23 fast and then she was out of work. My shock and embarrassment at finding Mother in tears was a perfect proof of how 24 I understood the pressure on her. Sitting beside her on the sofa, I began very slowly to understand. "I guess we all have to __25___ something," Mother said quietly. I could 26 her pain and the tension of 27 the strong feeling that were interrupted by my 28 . Suddenly, something inside me lit up. I reached out and put my arms around her. She broke then. She put her face 29 my shoulder and sobbed. I held her 30 and didn't try to talk. I knew I was doing what I should, what I could and that was 31 . At that moment, feeling Mother's 32 with feelings, I understood for the first time herbeing easy to 33 . She was still my mother, 34 she was something 35 : a person like me, capable of fear, 36 and failure. I could feel her pain as she must have felt mine on a thousand occasions when I sought 37 in her arms.A week later Mother took a job selling dry goods at half the salary the radio station 38 ."It's a job I can do, though." She said simply. But the evening practice on the green typewriter continued. I had a very 39 feeling now when I passed her door at night and heard her 40 away across the paper.

You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you cana lso you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的)door. When it does, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.41. Those who have big houses may often feel ________.A. happyB. lonelyC. freeD. excited42. What will your friends say to you when you make great progress?A. Oh, so do I.B. Congratulations.C. Good luck.D. It’s just so-so.43. Which idea is NOT RIGHT according to the passage?A. People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air.B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.D. Happiness is always around you though difficulties come towards you.44. Which of the following is this passage about?A. Bad luck.B. Good luck.C. Happiness.D. Life.BThe following is a piece of international news in China Daily, March 13th, 1994.A train derailment yesterday in this town just south of the capital, Brussels (布鲁塞尔), killed one passenger and hurt more than two dozen, some seriously, The officials said the cause of the derailment was being looked into.45. The accident happened in .A. HollandB. BeigiumC. FranceD. Germany46. According to the passage .A. the accident was caused by the fact that on passenger was killedB .the officials announced the cause of the accidentC. why the derailment happened was obviousD. the cause of the accident was yet to be found out47. The news tells us that passengers suffered from the accident.A. 20B. 24C. more than a score ofD. no more than twenty-one48. The derailment happened .A. on March 13th, 1994B. on March 12th, 1994C. quite oftenD. more terrible than it was reportedCWhen Geoff Marcy was 14, his parents bought him a telescope. Every night, he would go onto the roof outside his window to see the wonders of the sky.“What excited me most was wh ether there were planets in other solar systems where life might exist,” he says. “I decided to try to find planets orbiting (沿…轨道运行) other stars like our Sun.”And he did. “My fellow researcher, Paul Butler, and I found our first planet in 1995,” Dr. Marcy says. “We worked f or ten years without finding anything! But we stuck with it, and our patience paid off.”Since then, the two scientists have discovered 65 of the more than 100 planets found orbiting other stars. Dr. Marcy and Dr. Butler also spotted the first “family” of three planets. In June, 2002 they announced another discovery: a Jupiter-like (像木星一样的) planet orbiting star 55 Cancri.At first, the two researchers found only planets that orbit close to stars. Recently, the scientists found planets farther out. The planet orbiting 55 Cancri is a major breakthrough: it is the first sighting of a large gas planet about the same distance from the star as Jupiter is from the Sun.Why is this important? Scientists think that life on Earth may exist because of two special features in our solar system. The first is Jupiter.“Because it’s so big, Jupiter pulls comets and asteroids (小行星), or they all come and hit the Earth.” Dr. Marcy explains. “Without Jupiter, life on Earth would likely have been destroyed.”A second feature is that Earth is a rocky planet where liquid water, which is necessary for life, can exist. Unlike gas planets, rocky planets like Earth have surfaces where water can gather in pools and seas, which may support life. A huge space exists between the Jupiter-like planet and two other planets that lie close to 55 Cancri. Is there an Earth-like planet in the space, too small for us to notice? “If so,” says Dr. Marcy, “we would have two striking similarities to our solar system: a Jupiter-like planet and an Earth-like planet. And there may be life!”49. What can we learn about Dr. Marcy from the passage?A. He is fond of watching Jupiter.B. He is from a scientist family.C. He dislikes working with Paul Butler.D. He is interested in finding life in outer space.50. Which of the following is true of the recent discovery?A. The planet is not as protective as Jupiter.B. The planet is close to star 55 Cancri.C. The planet proves to be a gas planet.D. The planet is as large as Jupiter.51. How many planets orbiting other stars have the two scientists discovered so far?A. 100B. 69C. 66D. 6552. “But we stuck with it” (in Paragraph 3) means __________.A. they felt discouragedB. they carried on with itC. they failed in their attemptD. they made some progressD“The best age to start learning the violin is between three and six,” says Margaret Porter, a violinist and music teacher. “It’s the time when you are learning about the world.” Margaret, who lives in London, prefers to take pupils at three and four, although she has made lots of exceptions for keen five-year-olds. When she started teaching the violin in 1972, her first class consisted of her children’s five-year-old school friends.Margaret’s pupils have group lessons. Each group has about a dozen pupils and each lesson lasts an hour, once a fortnight. In addition, each pupil has one individual lesson a week with her. Parents also have to attend the classes. It is important that the parents take an active interest in the lessons. From the earliest lessons pupils learn to play by ear. They do not even try to read music until they have been playing for several years, and for a long time there is a big difference between their playing and reading music. Margaret says that her method is not supposed to produce great violinists, and always suggests that pupils who perform particularly well should leave and study the violin using more traditional methods.53. The writer is trying to write the text to __________.A.explain why Margaret likes teaching the violinB.describe a different way of learning the violinC.give advice on how to find a music teacherD.explain why Margaret has a lot of pupils54.

Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, idea, themes---anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a “complicated idea”until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony or its very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times.(How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?)There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization”. “More than anything else in my life”. The professor told the reporter with finality, “these books have made me all that I am.” That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato’s The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by the time I reached the last words, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.1.On hearing the teacher’s suggestion of reading, the writer thought___________.A.one must read as many books as possibleB. a student should not have a complicated ideaC.it was impossible for one to read two thousand booksD.students ought to make a list of the books they had read2.While at high school , the writer __________.A.had plans for readingB.learned to educate himselfC.only read books over 100 pagesD.read only one book several times3.The underlined phrases “with finality”in the second paragraph probably means_____________.A firmly B. clearly C. proudly D pleasantly4. The writer’s purpose in mentioning The Republic is to _____________.A. explain why it was included in the listB. describe why he seriously crossed it off the listC. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understandD prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word5. The writer provides two book lists to____________.A. show how he developed his point of viewB. tell his reading experience at high schoolC. introduce the two person s’ reading methodsD. explain that he read many books at high schoolBWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”6. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while “dull” in the second paragraph means ________.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; commonD. hopeful and helpful; careless7. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ________ while an idiot is ________.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person8. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use9. It is better for parents ________.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.VI. 阅读表达:According to the dictionary definition of “ create” , ordinary people are creative everyday . To create means to bring into being or to cause to exist –something each of us does daily .We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way . First this involves an awareness of our surroundings . It means using all of our sense to become aware of world . This may be as simple as being aware of color and appearance , as well as taste , when we plan a meal . Above all , it is the ability to notice things that others might miss .A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things . If we believe the expression “ There is nothing new under the sun”, the creativity is remaking or recombining the old in new ways. For example we might do this by finding a better way to study or to arrange our furniture , or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters(镜头和滤光器) 头create an unusual photograph .A third part of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ideas , to apply them to achieve some new results .

Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, idea, themes---anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a “complicated idea”until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony or its very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times.(How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?)There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization”. “More than anything else in my life”. The professor told the reporter with finality, “these books have made me all that I am.” That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato’s The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by the time I reached the last words, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.1.On hearing the teacher’s suggestion of reading, the writer thought___________.A.one must read as many books as possibleB. a student should not have a complicated ideaC.it was impossible for one to read two thousand booksD.students ought to make a list of the books they had read2.While at high school , the writer __________.A.had plans for readingB.learned to educate himselfC.only read books over 100 pagesD.read only one book several times3.The underlined phrases “with finality”in the second paragraph probably means_____________.A firmly B. clearly C. proudly D pleasantly4. The writer’s purpose in mentioning The Republic is to _____________.A. explain why it was included in the listB. describe why he seriously crossed it off the listC. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understandD prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word5. The writer provides two book lists to____________.A. show how he developed his point of viewB. tell his reading experience at high schoolC. introduce the two person s’ reading methodsD. explain that he read many books at high schoolBWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”6. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while “dull” in the second paragraph means ________.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; commonD. hopeful and helpful; careless7. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ________ while an idiot is ________.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person8. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use9. It is better for parents ________.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C.

Sadly, she went to the holy man and asked, “What magical things do you have to bring my son back to life?”Instead of sending her away or reasoning with her, he said to her, “Fetch me a mustard (芥菜) seed from a home that has never known sadness. We will use it to dr ive the sadness out of your life.” The woman happily went off at once in search of that magical mustard seed.She first came to a splendid house, knocked at the door and said, “I am looking for a home that has never known sadness. Is it such a place? It i s very important to me.”They told her “You’ve certainly come to the wrong place” and began to describe all the tragic things that had happened to them recently.The woman said to herself, “I have had misfortune of my own. Who is able to help these poor, unfortunate people?” She stayed to comfort them, and then went on in search of a home that had never known sadness. But wherever she went, she found one tale after another of sadness and misfortune. She became so involved in other people’s sorrow that fin ally she forgot about her search for the magical mustard seed, never realizing that it had, in fact, driven the sadness out of her life.40.

A nice surpriseC. The holy man’s faithD. Cure for sadnessCGwendolyn Brooks wrote hundreds of poems during her lifetime. She was known around the world for using poetry to increase understanding of black culture in America.During the 1940’s and the 1950’s, Gwendolyn Brooks used her poems to describe conditions among the poor, racial(种族的) inequality and drug use in the black community. She also wrote poems about the struggles of black women.But her skill was more than her ability to write about struggling black people. She combined traditional European poetry styles with the African American experience.Gwendolyn Brooks once said that she wrote about what she saw and heard in the street. She said she found most of her materials through looking out of the window of her second-floor apartment in Chicago, Illinois.In her early poetry, Gwendolyn Brooks wrote about the South Side of Chicago, where many black people live. In her poems, the South Side is called Bronzeville. It was “A Street in Bronzeville” that gained the attention of literary experts in 1945. Critics praised her poetic skills and her powerful descriptions about the black experience during the time. The Bronzeville poems were her first published collection.In 1950, Gwendolyn Brooks became the first African American to win the Pulitzer Prize for Literature. She won the prize for her second book of p oems called “Annie Allen”. “Annie Allen” is a collection of poetry about a Bronzeville girl as a daughter, a wife and a mother. She experiences loneliness, loss, death and poverty (贫穷).Gwendolyn Brooks said that winning the prize changed her life.Her ne xt work was a novel written in 1953 called “Maud Martha”. “Maud Martha” attracted little attention when it was first published. But now it is considered an important work by some critics. Its main ideas about the difficult lives of many women are popular among female writers today.44. Gwendolyn Brooks became world-famous because .A. she was an expert on the language of poetryB. she introduced black culture by writing poemsC. she fought for black rights by writing poemsD. her poems showed the lives of black women45. Which of the following can we learn from the text?A. Gwendolyn Brooks’ poems focused on black people in Africa.B. Winning the Pulitzer Prize for Literature was important to Brooks.C. Gwendolyn Brooks used to suffer a lot from drugs.D. Gwendolyn Brooks was very strict with herself.46. How did Gwendolyn Brooks get ideas for most of her poems?A. By observing life.B. By having talks.C. By reading widely.D. By traveling.47. We can infer that the book “Annie Allen” mainly deals with .A. family lifeB. inequalityC. adventureD. failureDTraditionally poems would be recited and passed from poet to poet through the ages. It is only recently that poetry is something that one reads alone, rather than reciting to an audience. At some point in the education of any student majoring in poetry, one will attempt to memorize a poem, and possibly recite it to someone else.Chances are that you have already memorized thousands of lines of verse in the form of lyrics. How did you memorize the lyrics of songs? You simply listened to songs you liked over and over again until you almost couldn’t help but have them memorized. Memorizing poetry isn’t much different. You start with a poem you like, recite it to yourself over and over again, and you get to know it.One of the best aspects of learning a poem by heart is that you get to take a poem inside of yourself. It becomes a part of you. When you m emorize a poem, it is no longer just a poem, but yours. It’s in your head, and you can call it up from memory as you would in any other experience.Also, memorizing a poem is a great way to truly get to understand languages, and consider every phrase, line, and word. You can practice varying the sounds, adding pauses and emphasis in different spots to try to find the most accurate tone for the poem. In a way, you never really know a poem until you’ve memorized it. Once you know it, you’ll be able to recite it, like a jazz musician improvising(即兴创作) inside a song’s boundaries –adding his own words or re-wording a section to make it his own.48. According to the text, in the past poems were .A. usually written in the form of songs by some musiciansB. mainly circulated among poets by oral communicationC. seldom chosen as teaching materials in most universitiesD. only something that people enjoyed alone by themselves49. Memorizing the lyrics of songs is mentioned in the text to .A. emphasize the importance of repetition in memorizing poemsB. describe the similar characteristics of poems and popular songsC. correct students’ wrong idea that reciting poems is very boringD. encourage students to develop the habit of listening to music50. What can we infer from the text?A. Varying the original sounds can damage the beauty of poetry.B. Readers can change the language of a poem to remember it.C. Many college students choose to major in literature at present.D. Memorizing poems can pave the way for writing poems.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。

D.An announcement.BI once saw a TV programme at college about a scientist who used“ driftbottles (漂流瓶 ) ”to mark ocean currents. It was a rather boring programme. Iwas more interested to read an article about someone who found a bottle on abeach with a message inside. Like the drift bottles, it had been thrown into thesea— but 21 years before. I decided to find out more about such bottles, and Istarted work on this intriguing ( 非常有趣的 ) research.An early message in a bottle was thrown into the sea by Christopher Columbusduring a terrible storm. He wrote about his discovery of America and expected thathis message would be sent to the Queen of Spain. He wanted the news to reach her,but he thought he might be drowned 淹(死 ) in the storm. In fact, he survived but thebottle was never found.I would be excited to find a message in a bottle, but in the 16th century, it couldbe dangerous. In those days, the British Navy海(军 ) used messages in bottles tosend information about the enemy. When Queen ElizabethⅠ found out that aboatman had opened a bottle containing one of these secret messages, she createda new job, Uncorker of Ocean Bottles. I was amazed to learn that anyone else who opened a bottle could be sentenced to death. It seems very strange to us now.A long time ago, before dating websites existed to help people find partners, asailor in Sweden put this message in a bottle—“ To someone beautiful and far away. ” It was found by a young woman in Sicily. She answered the message—“ I am notbeautiful, but it seems a miracle 奇(迹 ) I found your message. They”began to write letters to each other, and eventually got married.Nowadays it's easy to communicate with anyone anywhere in the world, but I think people will still go on throwing bottles with messages into the ocean and guessing where the winds and the waves will carry them. And how romantic it would be to find a bottle with a message inside!24.Why did the author do some research on bottles thrown into the sea?A. He had found a message in one.B. He had read an article about one.C. He had to do a project on them at college.D. He had watched a TV programme about them.25.Christopher Columbus put a message into a bottle to .26.How did the author feel about the 16th century punishment for opening ocean bottles?A. Frightening.B. Amusing.C.Astonishing. D.Satisfying.27.Why did the young woman in Sicily reply to the Swedish sailor's message?A. She wanted to have a pen friend.B. She felt she fitted his description.C. She failed to access a dating website.D. She was impressed by the bottle's journey.CGene Wolfe is one of the most admired and respected American science fiction and fantasy writers. He is also a productive writer of outstanding short fiction, whichis collected in many volumes over the last forty years, most recently inThe Best ofGene Wolfe.Although Wolfe is not as well-known to readers as he once was, he has been thereceiver of great praise, including three World Fantasy Awards, two Nebulas, andeight Hugo Award nominations (提名 ). Sci-fi author Harlan Ellison has calledhim, “ no less than one of the finest, most original writers in the world today”the Encyclopedia of Science Fictionnames him “ quite possibly the most important”writer in the field of science fiction.Born in 1931, New York, Gene Wolfe moved frequently as a child, but spentmost of his growing-up years in Texas. Wolfe began writing fiction in 1956, sellinghis first story,The Dead Man, to Sir magazine in 1965. He produced a vast amount ofshort fiction during the 1960s and 1970s, many of which were published in DamonKnight's Orbit anthologies. In 1972 Wolfe's groundbreakingThe Fifth Head ofCerberus appeared. The story of human conquest(征服 ) upon two distant planets,the book examines issues of identity, individuality, and the results of colonialismupon both the colonized and the colonizer. The novel was later listed in DavidPringle's 1985 list of The 100 Best Novels in science fiction for the period1949― 1984.Many of his novels, The Shadow of the Torturerincluded, rely on a diary orletter to tell his story. In addition, Wolfe's early interest in mystery novels shinesthrough in his ability to drop cleverly hidden clues (线索 ) that allow the reader tograsp at the possible narrative behind the narrative.By 1984 Wolfe was able to retire and devote himself full-time to his writing. Yetdespite (尽管 ) all this, and despite the continuing respect of his colleagues, his workhas become somewhat unfamiliar. Wolfe's admirers hope this fact will be at leastsomewhat improved by his most recent offering,The Wizard Knight, which fallswithin the fantasy type that is currently popular.28. What is Harlan Ellison's attitude toward Gene Wolfe?A. Concerned.B. Sympathetic.C.Admiring.D.Regretful.29.What do we know aboutThe Fifth Head of Cerberus?A. It was well received.B. It was Gene Wolfe's first novel.30.Which has great influence on Gene Wolfe's writing style?A. His understanding of life.B. His childhood experiences.C. His colleagues' suggestions.D. His love for mystery fiction.31.What can we infer about Gene Wolfe from the last paragraph?A. His work has become less popular.B. He became famous forThe Wizard Knight.C.His fans were disappointed to some degree. D.He stopped fantasy writing after his retirement.The word or phrase that you use to open your email account may provide akey to your personality as well as to your correspondence信(件 ), according to aBritish psychologist. Helen Petrie, professor of human / computer interaction交(互作用) at City, University in London, analysed the responses of 1,200 Britons whoparticipated in a survey funded 提(供资金 ) by CentralNic, an Internet domainname company. The results were recently published on CentralNic's website.Petrie identifies three main password“ types” .“ Family oriented” respondenumbered nearly half of those surveyed. These people use their own name ornickname, the name of a child, partner, or pet or a birth date as their password. Theytend to be occasional computer users and have strong family ties.“ They choose passwords that symbolize people or events with emotional value,” says Petrie. Onethird of respondents were“ fans” , using the names of athletes, singers, movie stars,fictional characters, or sports teams. Petrie says fans are young and want to attachthemselves to the lifestyle represented by a celebrity. Two of the most popularnames were Madonna and Homer Simpson. The third main group of participants are“ cryptics ” because they pick confusing passwords or a random随机的 () string ofletters, numbers, and symbols such as“ Jxa+157 ” . Petrie says cryptics are the mostsecurity-conscious group. They tend to make the safest but least interesting choices.Passwords are revealing for two reasons. First, because they are invented on thespot. “ Since you are focused on getting into a system, for example your email account,you're likely to write down something that comes quickly to mind,” says Petrie.this sense passwords take advantage of things that are just below the surface of consciousness. Also, to remember your password, you pick something that willstick in your mind. You may unconsciously choose something of particularemotional importance. ”32.How did Petrie draw her conclusions?A. By observing participants' reactions.B.By interviewing 1,200 people.C. By studying survey results.D. By doing an experiment.33. What do we know about people whose passwords are“ family oriented”?A. They probably have large families.B. They are likely to be animal lovers.C. They tend to be social and emotional.D. They are probably infrequent computer users.34. What does Petrie say about the“ cryptic” group?A. They have strong safety awareness.B. They lack imagination and creativity.35.Why can passwords reveal our personalities?A. We choose words we will easily remember.B. We are willing to invent something personal.C. We are likely to value important experiences.D. We pick up a password after careful consideration.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。

He has learned to take food from his owner’s hand, swim through hoops and tubes, and even put a miniature soccer ball into a goal!It all started when Kyle Pomerleau, 9, won two goldfish at a school fair. Soon he noticed that the fish would react to his movements whenever he came near the tank. He wondered if they were smarter than he’d realized.He and his dad decided to train Albert. They used techniques that work for other animals like dogs and killer whales.“We wanted to show that fish could be interesting pets, not just decorations,” said Kyle’s father, Dean Pomerleau.The Pomerleaus bought a “finger soccer”kit (成套用具) from a store and put weights on the tiny net and ball so that they would sink to the bottom of the tank.First Albert earned a food reward every time he swam toward the net. This training technique is called positive reinforcement. The fish likes the treat, so it learns to repeat the action to get additional treats.Once Albert learned to go toward the net, Kyle and his dad added a new step — ball handling. Eventually Albert learned to push a ball into a goal.The trainer learns patience and persistence, the father-son team says. It may take five or six training sessions a day for three weeks to teach a fish to swim through a hoop. Just like kids, each individual fish learns at different speeds!The Pomerleaus set up a website so other people could see how much fun they were having with their fish project. They heard from so many people who wanted to train their pet fish that the Pomerleaus started Fish School, a small business that sells fish-training manuals (指南) and kits.56. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Albert Einstein in this story is a great scientist.B. The Pomerleaus spent much money training the goldfish at first.C.

These patients also seem to experience less pain when they are concentrating on a superhero adventure or a car race.At the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center in Baltimore, Maryland, young patients are finding hospital visits easier to deal with, thanks to a test program called the Hospital-based Online Pediatric Environment (HOPE).Patients in HOPE have a life-threatening condition where their kidneys (肾) no longer clean wastes from their blood. To get their blood cleaned, these kids must be hooked up to dialysis machines (透析机) at the hospital three times a week, for at least three hours each time.HOPE allows kids to play online sports, racing, and adventure games with each other. Eventually they will be able to connect with kids in other hospitals who are undergoing the same procedure (程序).“We want to use the power of t he Internet to bring together kids who feel they are isolated by their illness, and let them know they are not alone,” said Arun Mathews, the doctor who heads the program. He loves video games himself and got the idea to connect kids all over the country.Many researchers elsewhere are testing video programs that might help young patients. For example, nine-year-old Ben Duskin of San Francisco, California, who was struggling with cancer helped to design a video game where players get rid of cancer cells.That’s all great news, because doctors already know that reducing pain and worry helps patients recover faster.60. The underlined word “isolated” in Paragraph 6 can be replaced by .A. separatedB. controlledC. conqueredD. caused61. The author’s main purpose in writing the passage is to show that .A. video games are very popular with sick kidsB. young patients are encouraged to play video gamesC. playing video games is beneficial under certain conditionsD. parents should care about children’s interests62. Which of the following statements is NOT the sick children’s purpose of playing online video games?A. To experience less pain.B. To connect with kids in other hospitals.C. To know they are not alone.D. To design video games.63. What is the best title of the passage?A. Video games and young patients.B. Video games may help young patients relieve pain and worry.C. The power of the Internet.D. The advantages and disadvantages of video games.CFans of the Internet are fond of describing it as an engine of freedom, opportunity and wealth creation. In many ways they are right: the Internet can be a limitless classroom for those ignored by formal education, and a marketplace and a discussion place for people not included in economic or political life.The problem is that the people who could benefit most are the least likely to be connected. The digital divide between the rich and the poor prevents the benefits from flowing to the vast majority in the developing world, making sure that familiar inequalities continue in the virtual world.One technology that promises to help bridge the divide both at home and abroad is wireless mesh networking. In basic terms, it links computers together and connects them to the Internet. In practice, it can be used to build large networks far more quickly and cheaply than has ever been possible. Networks are also providing web connections for people in developing countries that have never had effective telephone networks.The special nature of the mesh makes it easy to start small and expand where necessary. As the mesh becomes denser, its stability increases. They are also relatively cheap to set up. Unlike phone or cable-based Internet systems, mesh networks require less physical infrastructure (基础设施) and can be fixed quickly and cheaply.The growth of meshing will undoubtedly present new challenges. One difficulty is the law, both in the developing world, where bureaucracy (官僚作风) can prove difficult, and the developed world, where telecoms companies are strongly against citywide mesh networks affecting their business. Wireless security will also be a concern for some.64. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. A new wireless technology connects the Internet.B. Wireless networks will connect all the countries around the world.C. The inequality between rich and poor countries of getting information is widening.D. An unusual way of connecting computers could benefit people who aren’t online at present.65. Which of the following statements is NOT the difficulty that the growth of meshing meets?A. In developing countries, the local government can’t work effectively.B. In developed countries, some companies may be against citywide mesh networks.C. Some people worry about the safety of the wireless networks.D. The technology of mesh is new and can’t be used in everyday life.66. From Paragraph 1 we can NOT infer that _______.A. people who have no access to formal education have the chance to learn on the InternetB. people can make money from the economic activities on the InternetC. some people consider the Internet an engine to manage their everyday lifeD. people can use the Internet to discuss political problems67. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. The people who need the Internet most have the least chance to be connected.B. Wireless networks can connect poor people who have no telephone networks.C. It is cheaper to set up the mesh than phone or cable-based Internet systems.D. The mesh can be used to build large networks far more quickly and cheaply.DEven plants can run a fever, especially when they’re attacked by insects or disease. But unlike humans, plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet above them. A decade ago, adopting the infrared (红外线) scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers spray pesticide (杀虫剂) exactly rather than rain poison plants on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don’t have pest problems.Even better, Paley’s Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat sent out by crops. The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running “fevers”. Farmers c ould then spot spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paley’s company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers (资助者) were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and improvement in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt that the technology works. “This technique can be used on 75 p ercent of the agricultural land in the United States,” says George Oerther of Texas A&M. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture. It also thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade.68.

The application of the infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with difficulties mainly because of ________.A. the lack of official supportB. its slow improvementC. the lack of financial supportD. its failure to help increase production72. The infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of ________.A. the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produceB. growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on cropsC. the forceful promotion by the Department of AgricultureD. full support from agricultural expertsEHave you ever wanted to travel back through time and see what life was like at the dawn of man? Well, museums can make history come alive. And one museum in particular can take you on an exciting journey from the beginning of human culture to the present day.It is the British Museum. Being one of the largest museums in the world, it is home to over 7 million objects from all the world’s continents. While most of us may not have the opportunity to visit London, we can catch a glimpse of the treasures it holds in Beijing. More than 100 cultural relics will be on display in the Palace Museum. Named “Britain and the World”, a range of pencil sketches (素描), watercolor paintings, sculptures and many other objects have traveled to China.There will be several Chinese objects on show. But “they were obtained by the British Museum before 1830 mainly by tr ade,” said Ma Jige, deputy director of the Exhibition Department of the Palace Museum.In fact, there are more than 23,000 Chinese relics in the British Museum, including national treasures like gems (宝石), artwork and ancient bronze ware objects.The museum is famed for its exquisite Chinese paintings. Picture of Lady Officials (《女史箴图》) by Gu Kaizhi, a top painter of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 317-420), is there. The British Museum also holds 13,700 Buddhist records from the Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province.73.
