All spidersproduce silk, but only some construct webs to catch their homes and to protect their eggs.All spiders possess poison glands but very few of them are dangerous to humans, of the600+species in Britain only 12 (at least one of these is a recent human assisted colonist)are strong enough to pierce the human skin, and apart from allergies, none are moredangerous than a common wasp. Most spiders have 8 eyes (though some have 6,4,2 or 0),as well as 8 legs. (by the way if you count the claws as separate leg section [which youshouldn?t really] then their legs have 8 parts as well [coxa, trochanter, femur, patella, tibia,tarsus, metatarus, claws]) There are more than 32000 known species of spider in theworld. No human being has ever been officially recorder ashaving died as the result of a…tarantula? bite.All spiders are carnivorous and feed only on liquids, i.e. their preys natural juices and thebreakdown products of external digestion (meaning they spit, exude or inject digestivejuices onto/into their prey ad suck up the resulting soup). So why not invite some to yournext social do?What’s In a NameThe word …Arachnida? comes from the Greek word …Arachne? who was the daughter ofIdmon of Colophon in Lydia, a dyer by trade. Arachne herself was a weaver, the best inall the known world. However in a foolish moment she challenged Athene, the daughterof Zeus and goddess of, among other things, waving to a weaving competition. Arachnewove so perfect a cloth that she tore it to shreds. Arachne became depressed after this andin the end she hung herself. Athene stirred to remorse at the knowledge of what her angerhad wrought turned the rope Arachne had used to hang herself into a web and Arachneherself into a spider so that the beauty of her spinning should not be lost to the world everagain.The Great Household Spider SafariThere are just over six hundred different sorts of spider in the British Isles. But of theseonly a handful are commonly found in houses. At the front of the head are a pair of whatappear to be small legs. These are called palps and are used to guide food to the spider?smouth. The front of the head also has a group of six or eight eyes. On the underside of thebody at the rear, are four or six small conical bumps or cylinders. There are the spinneretsfrom which the spider produces the silk to make its webs.Telling male and female spiders apart is easily done by looking at their palps. Males haveswollen ends to their palps which makes them look as if they are wearing boxing gloves,these are often strange shapes if looked at with a hand lens. Females have normal lookingpalps that are not swollen at the ends.The largest spider is the Goliath spider, the female of which grows to reach a leg span often inches. The largest spider in Britain is the Cardinal spider which is a close cousin ofTim Tegenaria. Females can achieve a leg span of four and a half inches. It is known asthe Cardinal spider as it was common in Hampton Court when Cardinal Wolsey livedthere. The sight of these long legged spiders wandering around the palace at night used tofrighten him. So far 32000 different kinds of spider have been discovered from all overthe world. Britain has 630 different kinds of spider of which 250 are tiny Money spiders.The smallest of which has a body less than one millimeter long.1.

Each passage is followed bysome questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choicesmarked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark thecorresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.In the early days of the internet, many people worried that as people in the rich worldembraced new computing and communications technologies, people in the poor worldwould be left stranded on the wrong side of a “digital divide.” Yet the debate over thedigital divide is founded on a myth —hat plugging poor countries into the internet willhelp them to become rich rapidly.This is highly unlikely, because the digital divide is not a problem in itself, but asymptom of deeper, more important divides: of income, development and literacy. Fewerpeople in poor countries than in rich ones own computers and have access to the internetsimply because they are too poor, are illiterate, or have other more immediate concerns,such as food, health care and security. So even if it were possible to wave a magic wandand cause a computer to appear in every household on earth, it would not achieve verymuch: a computer is not useful if you have no food or electricity and cannot read. Yetsuch Wand-waving —through the construction of specific local infrastructure projectssuch as rural telecenters —is just the sort of thing for which the UN's new fund isintended.This sort of thing is the wrong way to go about addressing the inequality in access todigital technologies: it is treating the symptoms, rather than the underlying causes. Thebenefits of building rural computing centers, for example, are unclear. Rather than tryingto close the divide for the sake of it, the more sensible goal is to determine how best touse technology to promote bottom-up development. And the answer to that question turnsout to be remarkably clear: by promoting the spread not of PCs and the Internet, but ofmobile phones.57. What is the main idea of this passage?A) Plugging poor countries into the Internet will help themto become rich rapidly.B) Poor countries should be given more basic devices other than advanced ones.C) Rich countries should help poor ones becoming rich.D) People in poor countries cannot afford devices such as computer.58. What did the author mean by referring "digital divide." (Line 3, Para. 1)?A) Digital technology will make the gap between rich world and poor world wider.B) Digital technology will divide people into rich and poor world.C) People can be divided digitally.D) To divide people in digital world is wrong.姓线号学封班卷试密学大峡三59. We can infer from the 2nd paragraph that.A) people in poor countries cannot use computer because of illiteracy.B) poor people cannot use computers.C) there would be no magic to cause a computer to appear in every household on earth.D) people in poor countries need more basic living conditions than computers.60. Considering the following sentences, which one would the author most agree?A) Digital technology is useless.B) Digital divide will help poor countries becoming rich.C) Poor people need more immediate concerns, such as food, health care and security.D) Mobile phones should be promoted firstly.61. The following passage will probably be:A) How to promote using of mobile phones.B) How to use technology to promote bottom-up development.C) The benefits of building rural computing centers.D) How to meet the need of food, health and security in poor countries.Passage TwoQuestions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.Space is a dangerous place, not only because of meteors (流星) but also because of raysfrom the sun and other stars. The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth.Light gets through, and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat. Heat,too, makes our environment endurable. Various kinds of rays come through the air fromouter space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off. As soonas men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or thewalls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage.Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. The unit of radiation iscalled “rem”. Scie ntists have reason to think that a man can put up with far moreradiation than 0.1 rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 reins has been agreed on.The trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage — a personmay feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and thiswill no be discovered until the birth of deformed children or even grandchildren.Missions of the Apollo flights have had to cross belts of high amount of rems. So far, nodangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the Apollo missions have beenquite short. We simply do not know yet how men are going to get on when they spendweeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a spacelaboratory. Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no reallyeffective ones have been found so far.62. According to the first paragraph, the atmosphere is essential to man in that ____.A) It protects him against the harmful rays from spaceB) It provides sufficient light for plant growthC) It supplies the heat necessary for human survivalD) It screens off the falling meteors63. We know from the passage that ____.A) Exposure to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatalB) The effect of exposure to radiation is slow in comingC) Radiation is avoidable in space explorationD) Astronauts in spacesuits needn't worry about radiation damage64. The harm radiation has done to the Apollo crew members ____A) is significant B) seems overestimatedC) is enormous D) remains unknown65. It can be inferred from the passage that ____.A) The Apollo mission was very successfulB) Protection from space radiation is no easy jobC) Astronauts will have deformed children or grandchildrenD) Radiation is not a threat to well-protected space explorers66. The best title for this passage would be ____.A) The Atmosphere and Our EnvironmentB) Research on RadiationC) Effects of Space RadiationD) Importance of Protection Against RadiationPart ⅤCloze (15 minutes)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank thereare four choices marked A), B), C), and D) on the right side of the paper. You shouldchoose the ONE that best fits into the passage.

Yet much has happened 1 .

But much of the archipelago"s political establishment, which includes the White Americans who dominated until the Second World War and people of Japanese, Chinese and Filipino origins, is opposed to the idea.The islands were annexed by the US in 1898 and since then Hawaii"s native peoples have fared worse than any of its other ethnic groups. They make up over 60 per cent of the state"s homeless, suffer higher levels of unemployment and their life span is five years less than average Hawaiians. They are the only major Hawaiian native group without any degree of autonomy.But a sovereignty **mittee set up by Hawaii"s first native governor, John Waihee, has given the natives" cause a major boost by recommending that the Hawaiian natives decide by themselves whether to re-establish a sovereign Hawaiian nation.However, the Hawaiian natives are not united in their demands. Some just want greater autonomy within the state—as enjoyed by many American Indian natives over matters such as education. This is a position supported by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA), a state agency set up in 1978 to represent the natives" interests and which has now become the moderate face of the native sovereignty movement. More ambitious is the Ka Lahui group, which declared itself a new nation in 1987 and wants full, official independence from the US.But if Hawaiian natives are given greater autonomy, it is far from clear how many people this will apply to. The state authorities only count as native those people with more than 50 per cent Hawaiian blood.Native demands are not just based on political grievances, though. They also want their claim on 660,000 hectares of Hawaiian crown land to be accepted. It is on this issue that native groups are facing most opposition from the state authorities. In 1933, the state government paid the OHA US $136 million in back rent on the crown land and many officials say that by accepting this payment the agency has given up its claims to legally own the land. The OHA has vigorously disputed this.1. Hawaii"s native minority refers to ______.A. Hawaii"s ethnic groupsB. people of Filipino originC. the Ka Lahui groupD. people with 50% Hawaiian blood2. Which of the following statements is true of the Hawaiian natives?A. Sixty percent of them are homeless or unemployed.B. Their Life span is 5 years shorter than average Americans.C. Their life is worse than that of other ethnic groups in Hawaii.D. They are the only native group without sovereignty.3. Which of the following is NOT true of John Waihee?A. He is Hawaii"s first native governor.B. He has set up a sovereignty **mittee.C. He suggested the native people decide for themselves.D. He is leading the local independence movement.4. Which of the following groups holds a less radical attitude on the matter of sovereignty?A. American Indian natives.B. Office of Hawaiian Affairs.C. The Ka Lahui group.D. The Hawaiian natives.5. Various native Hawaiians demand all the following EXCEPT ______.A. a greater autonomy within the stateB. more back rent on the crown landC. a claim on the Hawaiian crown landD. full independence from the USPassage 2The question of whether war is inevitable is one, which has concerned many of the world"s great writers. Before considering this question, it will be useful to introduce some related concepts. Conflict, defined as opposition among social entities directed against one another, is distinguished **petition, defined as opposition among social entities independently striving for something, which is in inadequate supply. Competitors may not be aware of one another, while the parties to a conflict are. Conflict **petition are both categories of opposition, which has been defined as a process by which social entities function is the disservice of one another.Opposition is thus contrasted with cooperation, the process by which social entities function in the service of one another. These definitions are necessary because it is important to emphasize **petition between individuals or groups in inevitable in a world of limited resources, but conflict is not. Conflict, nevertheless, is very likely to occur, and is probably an essential and desirable element of human societies.Many authors have argued for the inevitability of war from the premise that in the struggle for existence among animal species, only the fittest survive. In general, however, this struggle in nature is competition, not conflict. Social animals, such as monkeys and cattle, fight to win or maintain leadership of the group. The struggle for existence occurs not in such fights, but in **petition for limited feeding areas and for occupancy of areas free from meat-eating animals. Those who fail in **petition starve to death or become victims to other species. This struggle for existence does not resemble human war, but rather **petition of individuals for jobs, markets, and materials. The essence of the struggle is **petition for the necessities of life that are insufficient to satisfy all.Among nations there is competition in developing resources, trades, skills, and a satisfactory way of life. The successful nations grow and prosper; the unsuccessful decline. While it is true that **petition may induce efforts to expand territory at the expense of others, and thus lead to conflict, it cannot be said that war-like conflict among nations is inevitable, **petition is.1. In the first paragraph, the author gives the definitions of some terms in order to ______.A. argue for the similarities between animal societies and human societiesB. smooth out the conflicts in human societiesC. distinguish between two kinds of oppositionD. summarize the characteristic features of opposition and cooperation2. According to the author, competition differs from conflict in that ______.A. it results in war in most casesB. it induces efforts to expand territoryC. it is a kind of opposition among social entitiesD. it is essentially a struggle for existence3. The phrase "function in the disservice of one another" (Para. 1) most probably means ______.A. betray each otherB. harm one anotherC. help to collaborate with each otherD. benefit one another4. The author indicates in the passage that conflict ______.A. is an inevitable struggle resulting **petitionB. reflects the struggle among social animalsC. is an opposition among individual social entitiesD. can be avoided5. The passage is probably intended to answer the question"______".A. Is war inevitable?B. Why is there conflict **petition?C. Is conflict desirable?D. **petition lead to conflict?Section Ⅲ Writing1.

Lectures or Discussions
As we all know, lectures with discussions have been discussed by teachers and students recently. Although they have some reasons to agree or disagree with lectures with discussions, it is certain that there are advantages and disadvantages in them.
On the one hand, some of the students who prefer to learn without discussions disagree that teachers are experienced and they would teach us lots of knowledge they know. What teachers said are often organized and right, without discussions, and teacher would save more time teach us more knowledge.
On the other hand, some of the students would rather choose to learn with discussions with the reason that they could broaden their horizons and share their ideas with others. They think that only when they share their ideas more can they have access to various aspects of the problems. In this way, they can know what they do not know before and get right answers. what is more? In their opinion, only they think and discuss themselves can they really learn what teachers teach.
In my mind , I think we should emphasize teaching quality rather than quantity. So it is necessary for us students to learn with discussions. In this way , we can really understand and remember what teachers said. Learning from discussions is usually a way to more knowledge.。
