Rain, sleet, snow and cold called the plays.Baseball fans have often sat in the rain without cover, waiting for the sun to come out and the game to begin. Football lovers sometimes took days to warm up after sitting through a freezing cold Sunday game. For both sports fans and players, the domed stadium was like something out of a dream. A huge plastic bubble kept out rain and snow. There was heat to keep things comfortable year round.Domed stadiums have clearly changed the course of sports. Still, they did have their problems at first. Most of these problems were discovered and solved at the Houston Astrodome. This was the world's first stadium with a lid. For the fans, it was great. But there were some problems for the playe rs. Baseball outfielders had the most difficult time. They had to learn to catch in a field with a roof. At first this was almost as difficult as playing in the dark. The glass of the roof was light colored, to let sunlight in. Sunlight was needed to keep the grass on the field alive. But the light roof blended( 混合 )too well with the white baseball. Fly bails seemed to drop out of nowhere. Even skilled fielders were making errors. Finally, the decision was made to paint the glass of the roof dark. The problem was solved. But what about the grass? Well, the real grass was dug up and replaced with artificial turf!This passage is about________.A．baseball gamesB．cold weatherC．how to play outfieldD．domed stadiums37、Domed stadiums must have________.A．artificial grassB．bright sunlight。

Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out o f every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways — education, medici ne, and business. Quietly the graying of America. has made us a very different society — one in which people have a quite diff erent idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health. There’s no longer a particular yea r in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn’t as strong as it used to be. It doesn't surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public notions are changing.Many people say, "I am much younger than my mother — or my father — was at my age." No one says "act your age" anymore. We've stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.(17.5分)16). It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America ____.(3.5分)(A) has made people feel younger(B) has changed people’s social position(C) has changed people’s understanding of age(D) has slowed down the country’s social development参考答案：C17). The underlined word “one” refers to ______.(3.5分)(A) a society(B) America(C) a place(D) population参考答案：A18). We can infer from the text that if a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer would most proba bly consider it _________.(3.5分)(A) normal(B) wonderful(C) unbelievable(D) unreasonable参考答案：A19). “Act your age” means people should ________.(3.5分)(A) be active when they are old(B) do the right thing at the right age(C) show respect for their parents young or old(D) take more physical exercise suitable to their age参考答案：B20). This passage is mainly about ____________________.(3.5分)(A) why American society is different(B) suitable behaviors at different age in American’s eyes(C) how older people act in youthful ways in America(D) how American people’s ideas about age have changed参考答案：DJust as the degree of individual freedom in America seems loose and therefore uncomfortable to many visitors, in many countri es, people will tell you what they think you want to hear, whether or not it is true. To them, this is the polite thing to do. To A mericans it is considered confusing — even dishonest — to avoid telling the truth, even if the only purpose is to be polite. It is helpful to remember that different cultures consider some matters more important than others. For Americans, however, trust and truth are most important. One of the worst things that can be said about someone in America is that “you cannot trust hi m.”Considering such differences in values among many cultures of the world, it is natural that misunderstandings occur. “How far i s it to the next town?” an American asks a man standing by the road. In some countries , because the man realizes the travele r is tired and eager to reach the next village, he will politely say, “Just down the road”. He thinks this is more encouraging, gen tler, and therefore the answer the traveler wants to hear. So the American drives alone for many more hours before he comes t o the village. The traveler is angry, with a feeling of being fooled. He thinks that the man has lied to him on purpose because h e must have known quite well what the distance was.If a visitor to the United States asked an American standing by the road how far the next town was, the American would think it dishonest if he said it was near when he knew it was really 24 miles away. Although he, too, would be sympathetic with the t ired traveler, he would say, “You have a long way to go yet; it is at least 24 miles more.” The traveler might be disappointed , b ut he would know what to expect, and there would be no misunderstanding.(17.5分)21). People in other cultures choose not to tell the truth to the visitors because _______________.(3.5分)(A) they try to confuse the visitors(B) they consider it comfortable(C) they try to be polite(D) they consider it helpful参考答案：C22). Americans insist on telling the truth because __________________.(3.5分)(A) they don’t mind confusing people(B) they are not considerate(C) they are not polite(D) they value trust and truth参考答案：D23). In paragraph 2, the misunderstanding occurs because ____________________.(3.5分)(A) the man standing by the road doesn’t know where the American is going(B) the man standing by the road is dishonest and lied to the American(C) the man standing by the road wants to encourage the American(D) the man standing by the road knows the shortest way to the village参考答案：C24). We can infer from paragraph 3 that ____________________.(3.5分)(A) the American has no idea about how tired the traveler is(B) the American considers honesty important(C) the American wants to disappoint the traveler(D) the American knows what the traveler wants to hear参考答案：B25). What is the writer’s attitude toward the different cultures? (3.5分)(A) The writer thinks it natural for people in different cultures to misunderstand each other.(B) The writer thinks American culture better than many cultures of the world.(C) The writer thinks American culture worse than many cultures of the world.(D) The writer thinks people will always get confused with the cultural differences.参考答案：AA new study suggests that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression（忧郁症）as yo ung adults. But the extent to which TV may or may not be to blame is a question that the study leaves unanswered.The researchers used a national long-term survey of adolescent health to investigate the relationship between media use and depression. They based their findings on more than four thousand adolescents who were not depressed when the survey bega n in 1995.As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of 5.5 hours a day. More than 2 hours of that was spent watching TV.Seven years later, in 2002, more than 7 percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time wa s 21. Brian Primack at the University of Pittsburgh medical school was the lead author of the new study. He says every extra h our of television meant an 8 percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression. The researchers say they did n ot find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games or radio. But the study did find that you ng men were more likely than young women to develop depression, given the same amount of media use.Doctor Primack says the study did not explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility, he says, is that it may tak e time away from activities that could help prevent depression, like sports and socializing. It might also interfere with sleep, he says, and that could have an influence.(17.5分)26). According to the passage, the researchers have found ________________________.(3.5分)(A) in what way watching TV causes depression(B) why teenagers like to watch TV(C) the relationship between depression and the use of all forms of media(D) the relationship between depression and watching TV参考答案：D27). As used in paragraph 2, the word “adolescent” means ________________.(3.5分)(A) teenager(B) media use(C) young adult(D) average age参考答案：A28). About the methodology of the research, the writer has mentioned all of the following except that _______________.(3.5分)(A) the research was made nationwide(B) the research was made between 1995 and 2002(C) the adolescents in the survey were all depressed(D) the adolescents were asked how they used various types of media参考答案：C29). Which of the following is true about the findings of the research?(3.5分)(A) all the young people in the survey had signs of depression(B) watching TV longer implies higher risk of developing depression(C) not only TV, movies too, can result in depression(D) men and women had equal chances of developing depression参考答案：B30). The tone of this passage can be described as __________________.(3.5分)(A) critical(B) argumentative(C) emotional(D) factual参考答案：DWhen having a meal, a European usually holds the knife in the right hand, and the fork in the left. He uses the knife and fork with his both hands. He keeps his knife and fork in his hands until he finishes eating.But an American, on the opposite, may use just one hand whenever possible and keep the other hand on his lap. He uses the f ork in his right hand to pickup fried potatoes. When he has to cut his meat, he changes his fork to the left hand and cuts it. Th en he puts down the knife and changes his fork to his right hand to pick up the sliced meat. Then, perhaps, he will suddenly th ink of his coffee or orange. So he has to put down his fork in order to drink his coffee or orange. Now you can see, an America n is busy all the time at the dinner table. By the way, Europeans usually have their coffee after meals, but many Americans pre fer to have coffee during the meal.If you are present at a formal dinner, you might be confused to find so many forks, knives and spoons put before you. You mig ht be at a loss to know what to do with them. Don’t worry. The rule is simple. You just use them in the order in which they lie, beginning from outside towards the plate. The small fork on the outside on the left is for salad. The spoon on the outside on th e right is for soup. There is another little knife, called a butter spreader, on a bread-and-butter plate on the left. As the bread i s passed, each guest helps himself and puts his pieces on the small plate. Next to the soup there will probably be the blunt kni fe for fish, which is smaller and blunter than other knives.(17.5分)31). When do Europeans usually drink their coffee?(3.5分)(A) Before meals.(B) After meals.(C) While they are having their meals.(D) They never drink coffee when they eat.参考答案：B32). The right way to use the forks, knives and spoons is to use __________________.(3.5分)(A) whichever you like when necessary(B) them from the outside to the inside(C) them from the inside to the outside(D) them from the middle to both sides参考答案：B33). The butter spreader is ____________________. (3.5分)(A) a fork(B) a spoon(C) a knife(D) a plate参考答案：C34）。

Furious116117 Passage Two 118 119 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage: 120 121 The easiest and least complicated way to motivate somebody is quite simply 122 to pay them attention.What you say is not particularly important,nor necessarily 123 is how long you spend saying it,as long as it’s something. “Nice weather” or 124 “How are you ?” will do. 125 126 People just love attention,adults and children.Children love attention so 127 much that they will do anything to get some.In fact,if children are not getting 128 enough attention,they would rather be naughty and get told off than be “good” 129 and be ignored.An interesting time in most households with young children is 1301311321332134135dinnertime--it’s the end of the day,everybody is tired,the house is in a mess and 136Johnny doesn’t like carrots and is refusing to eat his food.Again,the easy trap to 137fall into is to start getting cross with Johnny and getting into a big argument about his food.Again,he’s getting the attention he desires;even if it’s not the best 138139sort of attention,it’s better than nothing.It’s fascinating if you are able to stand 140back from the situation and instead focus attention and praise on Johnny’s brother who is eating his food---after all,he is one that is doing what you want 141142him to do.After five or ten minutes or so of being ignored and deprive of the 143attention,it’s amazing how quickly(usually) Johnny sees sense and obeys.I’ve 144watched my own children in this situation go from screaming from behind the 145sofa,saying “Mummy,aren’t I doing good dinner eating ? ”---all without having 146one word a spoken to them by their parents,who are busily paying attention to 147their brothers.148This fundamental need for attention,and doing whatever it takes to get 149150it,doesn’t disappear when we turn into adu lts.Sure,there are people who are “ real attention seekers ” in a loud and extravert (外向的) way,and there are the 151152shy,retiring types who don’t want attention in such a “ sociable ” way.But 153everybody still wants to be recognized and seen worthwhile.1541556.What will children probably do to get parents156attention ? A.They will get quiet for a long time.157158B.They will ignore their159parents. C.They will behave160naughtily. D. They will get161crossly easily.1621637.What does the phrase “ the easy trap to fall into ” means ?164165A.A set-up situation parents are likely to go into.166167B.The household work that parents can not avoid.168C.Some tempting food children easily love to eat.169170171D.A bad habit children easily develop.1721738. An effective way to make children behave themselves may to be ?174175A. Scold them severelyB. Teach them what to do176177C. Give them total freedomD. Praise their sisters or brothers1781799. “ Real attention seekers ” in the last paragraph are probably those ______ ? 180181A. motivate others to learnB. associate with shy types182183C. reply on negative attentionD. arouse others’ attention openly18418510.What point does the author make by relating to children’s186behavior ? A.Children’s upbringing needs parents’ constant care.187188B.Children are usually extravert while adults are sociable.189C.Both children and adults need to be seen as worthwhile.190D.The motivation of children differs greatly from that of191adults.1921931943195Passage Three 196 197 Questions11 to 15 are based on the following passage: 198 199 Named for the dense shade of their thick pines,the Black Hills of south 200Dakota have for centuries been considered holy by Lakota Sioux,once the most 201powerful tribe in the west.Today,because of the passions of a few artists,the land 202itself has been holy in another way. 203 204 It took the obsessed sculptor Gutzon Borglum,his son Lincoln,and four 205hundred workers 14 years to complete an artistic and engineering project so 206monumental that no one believe it possible: carving and blasting the six-story 207faces of Washington.Jefferson,Teddy Roosevelt,and Abraham Lincoln out of 208stony Mou nt Rushmore.A little trivia: Washington’ eyes are each 11 feet 209wide,and his nose is 26 feet long.Mr.Lincoln, sports a mole that measures 16 210inches across. 211 212 Just 17 miles away,the gigantic Crazy Horse Memorial is slowly taking 213shape.Also carved into granite,this memorial,when completed somewhere around 2142050,after a century’s labor,this depict Native America’s greatest warriors chief 215on his horse,dwarfing Mount Rushmore at 563 feet tall.The horse’s nostril alone 216will be large enough to hold a five-room house. 217 218 From Crazy Horse,head east on the beautiful 14-mile Needles Highway,past 219billion-year-old Granite hills,so Sylvan lake and then north to Spearfish Canyon 220Scenic Byway,whose landscape you’ll easily recognize as the backdrops used in 221the film Dances with Wolves.Altematively,you can park your bags in the pleasant 222Game lodge that served as Calvin Coolidge’s Summer White House.Of the 223historic inn’s seven rooms,you can still book the room the thirtieth president and 224his wife occupied during the three months in 1972.The lodge is one of three found 225within Custer State Park,whose 18-mile Wildlife Loop Road runs through 226unfenced meadows where herds of buffalo roam. 22722811.

Teddy Roosevelt. C. Abraham Lincoln. D. Calvin Coolidge. 256Passage Four 257 258 Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage: 259 260 Women are more efficient and trustworthy, have a better understanding of 261their workforce and are more generous with their praise.In short they make the 262best managers, and if men are to keep up they will have to start learning form 263their female counterparts, a report claims today. 264 265 The survey of 1,000 male and female middle and senior managers from 266across the UK is an indictment of the ability of men to function as leaders in the 267modern workplace. 268 269 A majority of those questioned believed women had a more modern outlook 270on their profession and were more open minded and considerate.By way of 271contrast, a similar number believe male managers are egocentric and more likely 272to steal credit for work done by others. 273 274 Management today magazine , which conducted the research, said that after 275years of having to adopt a masculine identity and hide their emotions and natural 276behaviour in the workplace, women have become role models for managers. 277 278 The findings tally with a survey of female bosses carried out in the US. a 279five-year study of 2,500 managers from 450 firms found that many male bosses 280were rated by their staff of both sexes to be self-obsessed and autocratic.Women 281on the other hand leave men in the starting blocks when it comes to teamwork 282and communicating with staff. 283 284 In Britain more than 61% of those surveyed said men did not make better 285bosses than women.Female managers use time more effectively, with many of 286those surveyed commenting that juggling commitments is a familiar practice for 287women with a home and a family.Female managers also appear to make good 288 financial sense for penny-pinching companies: most people, of either sex, would 289rather ask for a rise from a man. 29029116.What is the source of the data mentioned in the passage ? 292 293 A.A magazine B.A newspaper 294 295 C.A government white paper D.A university Journal 296 297 17.According to the passage,male manager tend to 298________. A.be more selfless in teamwork 299 300 B.ask more questions when 301surveyed C.be considerate leaders 302in company D.claim the 303contribution 304 305 18.What can be found after comparing the findings in the UK and US ? 306 307308 5309310 A.The findings are irrelevant 311 B.The findings are contradictory 312 C.The findings match each other 313 D.The findings are not 314 significant 315 316 19.What does the phrase “penny -pinching companies ” 317 means ? panies that lack money 318 319 panies that are very generous 320 panies that earn a lot of money 321 panies that are unwilling to use 322 money 20.What’s the main idea of the 323 passage ? A.Men are better managers than 324 women B.Women are better managers than 325 men C.Male managers are more willing to 326 learn 327 328 D.Male leaders and females leaders have different advantages 329 330 Format Ⅱ（共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 331 332 Directions: In the following passage, some sentences have been removed.

Passage 1 11. Americans in business are like people who are in business anywhere, they have a language of their own. One such thing is "get your act together". When things go wrong in a business, an employer may get angry, he may shout "get your act together". "Getting your act together" is getting organized. In business it usually means developing a calm and orderly plan of action. It is difficult to tell exactly where the saying began. But it is probable that it was in the theater or movie industry. Perhaps one of the actors was nervous and made a lot of mistakes. The director may have said "Calm down now, get your act together." Word expert James Roger says the expression was common by the late 1970s. Another expression used by American business people is "cut to the chase". For example, at an important meeting of one company, one official was giving a very long and uninteresting report and some people were falling asleep. Finally the president of the company said "Cut to the chase". "Cut to the chase" means stopping spending so much time on details or unimportant material, hurrying and getting to the good part. This saying was started by people who make movies. Hollywood movie producers believe that most Americans want to see action movies. Many of their movies show scenes in which the actors chase each other in cars or in airplanes or on foot. "Cut" is the director's word for stop. The director means stopping filming to leave some material and getting to the chase scene now. (1) The passage is mainly about________C______. American (A) business world (B) movie language American (C) business language (D) American businessmen(2)The expression "get your act together" probably came from ________B______. the theater or (A) schools (B) movie industry (C) political field language labs(D)(3)The expression "get your act together" was popular ______A________. by the late 1970s by the (B) early 1970s (C) by the late 1980s by the (D) early 1980s(A)(4)The expression "cut to the chase" means___________D___. calm down and (A) focus on the best part (B) stop filming the uninteresting parts (C) develop a calm and orderly plan of action (D) stop wasting time on details or unimportant material, hurry and get to the good part(5)Chase is the movie director's word for _______C_______. scenes in which the actors chase (A) stop (B) action movies (C) each other in cars or in airplanes or on foot (D) unimportant materialPassage 2 12. Background music may seem harmless, but it can have a powerful effect on those who hear it. Recorded background music first found its way into factories, shops and restaurants in the USA. Very soon it spread to other parts of the world. Now it is becoming difficult to go shopping or eat a meal without listening to background music. To begin with, background music was intended simply to create a soothing(舒适的) atmosphere. Recently, however, it's becoming a big business. An American marketing expert has shown that music can boost sales or increase factory production by as much as a third. But it has to be the light music. Lively music has no effect at all on sales. Slow music can increase receipts (收入) by 34%. This is probably because shoppers slow down and have more opportunity to spot items they would like to buy. Yet, slow music isn't always the answer. The expert found that in restaurants slow music meant customers took longer to eat their meals, which reduced overall sales. So restaurant owners might be well advised to play faster music to keep the customers moving －unless, of course, the resulting indigestion (消化不良) leads to complaints. (1) Background music was first used_______D_______.in the cinemas (A) and theatres in the USA (B)in the offices and hospitals in the USA (C)in the schools and churches in the USAin the factories, (D) shops and restaurants in the USA(2)An American marketing expert has found background music can______A________. increase (A) sales or factory production. make (C) people slow down. make people (D) forget their worries.create a (B) soothing atmosphere.(3)_______C_______ has no effect on sales. (A) light music (B) slow music (C) lively music (D) none of the above(4)Slow music is useless in _______B_____ in increasing sales. (A) shops (B) restaurants (C) factories (D) cinemas(5)Restaurants owners are advised to play ______D______ to increase overall sales. (A) lively music (B) loud music (C) slower music (D) faster musicPassage 3 13. In sixteenth-century France, the start of the new year was observed on April first. It was celebrated in much the same way as it is today with parties and dancing into the late hours of the night. Then in 1562, Pope(教皇) Gregory introduced a new calendar (日历) to the Christian world, and the new year fell on January first. There were some people, however, who hadn't heard or didn't believe the change in the date, so they continued to celebrate New Year's Day on April first. Others playedtricks on them and called them "April fools." They sent them on a "fool's errand" or tried to make them believe that something false was true. In France today, April first is called "Poisson d'Avril (April Fish)." French children fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their friends' backs. When the "young fool" discovers this trick, the prankster (恶作剧的人) yells "Poisson d'Avril!" Today Americans play small tricks on friends and strangers alike on the first of April. One common trick on April Fool's Day, is pointing down to a friend's shoe and saying, "Your shoelace is untied." Whatever the trick, if the innocent victim falls for the joke the prankster yells, "April Fool! " Some practical jokes are kept up the whole day before the victim realizes what day it is. Most April Fool jokes are in good fun and do not mean to harm anyone. The cleverest April Fool joke is the one that makes everyone laugh, especially the person upon whom the joke is played.

Today we examine what schools are doing to help students with learning disabilities. Public schools and colleges in the United States are required by law to provide help. Congress approved the Rehabilitation Act(助残法案) in 1973. This law requires schools to provide disabled students with opportunities equal to those for other students. Amore recent law requires public schools to establish a program for each child found to have a disability. Schools must write, and follow, a statement called an I.E.P., an individualized education program. If not, parents may take legal action. States must provide special education services for free. Teachers with these skills are in great demand. There are many ways to meet the needs of a student who has disabilities. One way is to give the student extra time to complete work. Teachers might also permit the student to take tests differently from others in class. For example, the teacher might let the student speak the answers. Or another person could write the answers that the student gives. Also, students who have trouble concentrating might wish to take tests in a room that is extra quiet. Some students might want others to take notes for them during class. Or they might want to listen to recordings of books instead of reading them. Technology is one way to help. There are computer programs, for example, designed for the needs of people with learning disabilities. There are some schools in the United States that teach only students with learning disabilities. One is Landmark College in the northeastern state of Vermont. Students attend for up to three years. It prepares them to continue their education at other colleges. Classes at Landmark College are small. Students have their own learning plan, and a special teacher to help them study. d. (1) There are many ways to meet the needs of a student who has disabilities.
