I thought I could grow up quickly to find it out as an adult. But now, 38 I come to knock at the door of adulthood, I feel 39 to express my own 40 on this saying. I know that I am just a high school student with very few experiences. There are still many things 41me in the future, yet I would like to express myself in a childish voice.I once read this sentence, “To make this world a happy place in which to live, you had better42 yourself and your heart, instead of the whole world.” I was shocked. It made me think about43 itself. There are so many things around us that 44 our will. We can't force life to follow our wishes. The earth won't stop turning no matter whether we 45 it or not. What we can do is just to make 46 suit the world. I think we should learn to accept 47life gives us, no matter whether it's the spring sunlight or the winter snowfall, and try to be happy.The pop song Grandmother by Jay Chou is my favorite. I'm deeply moved by this beautiful song.I always try to 48 every pleasant thing in my life, but now I see that I don't catch most of the49 moments. It is more likely that they slip by and leave you 50 regretful. I realize that I'm not just living for myself and that there are others I should 51 such as my parents, friends, and so on. They all pay attention to my growing up, 52 it's just a little progress.Everyone has his or her own 53 towards life, positive or negative. It doesn't 54 , I think .There is one 55 that should be obeyed and that's to make this world better.36. A. man B. time C. thing D. parent37. A. about B. with C. on D. in38.

When our eyes is made uncomfortable by some small pieces of pollution , or when we are cutting onions, or when we are exhausted and “red-eyes” from over work and late hours, tears form in our eyes to clean and refresh them.Tears are also a sign of strong emotion. We cry when we are sad and we cry when we are happy.And tears seem to be uniquely human. We know that animals also experience emotion fear, pleasure, loneliness, but they do not shed (流) tears.Biologically speaking, tears are actually drops of saline fluid, which is a little bit salty, produced by a gland (腺) in the body. Because salt is an important component, tears may actually constitute the most conclusive evidence that the human animal is the end product of a long evolutionary process that began in the sea.And it is clear that, in addition to the emotional benefits, the shedding of tears has a specific biological function as well. Through tears, we can eliminate from our body certain chemicals which build up in response to stress and create a chemical imbalance in the body. Crying actually makes us feel better by correcting that imbalance and making us feel good again. And thus the emotional and the biological functions of tears merge (合并) into one and make us even more “human” than we would otherwise be.56．According to the passage, human beings may have originated in ____.A．the sea B．the salt C．chemicals D．animals57．Which of the following is NOT a function of tears?A．Biological. B．Emotional. C．Political. D． Chemical.58．According to the article, which of the following is unique to humans?A．The feeling of loneliness. B．The state of feeling good.C．The ability to shed tears. D．The feeling of fear.59．The underlined word “eliminate” probably means ____.A．add B．produce C．replace D．remove60．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A．Tears are a sign of strong emotion.B．Tears are always making us feel more comfortable.C．Tears are uniquely human.D．Tears have certain biological function.BThe railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel. The first rails were made of iron. But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy trains running at a high speed. Railroad officials wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times stronger and lasted twenty times longer. Before the 1870s, however, steel was too expensive to be widely used. It was made by a slow and expensive process of heating, stirring, and reheating iron ore (矿石).Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace (熔炉) would burn out the impurities (杂质) that made the iron brittle (易脆). As the air shot through the furnace, the bubbling metal would erupt (喷发) in showers of sparks. When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed, or converted, to steel. The Bessemer converter made possible the mass production of steel, now three to five tons of iron could be changed into steel in a matter of minutes. Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new deposits (矿床) of iron ore in the Mesabi Range, a 120-mile-long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior. The Mesabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam shovels.Barges and steamers carried the iron ore through Lake Superior to deposits on the southern shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. With dizzying speed Gary, Indiana and Toledo, Youngstown, and Cleveland, Ohio, became major steel manufacturing centers. Pittsburgh was the greatest steel city of all. 61．The best title for the passage is ____.A．The railroad Industry B．Famous InventorsC．Changing Iron into Steel D．Steel Manufacturing Centers62．According to the passage, how did the Bessemer method make the mass production of steel possible? A．It directed air at melted iron in furnace, removing all impurities.B．It slowly heated iron ore, then stirred it and heated it again.C．It changed iron ore into iron, which was a substitute (替代物) for steel.D．It could be quickly found deposits of iron ore under the ground.63．It can be inferred from the passage that the mass production of steel caused ____.A．a decline in the railroad industry B．a revolution in the industrial worldC．an increase in the price of steel D．a feeling of discontent among steel workersCFor new countries joining the European Union, and older ones getting used to their burgundy passports, becoming “Europeans” is a bit like marrying into a large, eccentric (古怪的) family. Europeans have a lot in common but it is their differences, not their similarities, which attract the attention of sociologists (社会学家) and market researchers, that are more interesting.35% of Germans live alone; but only 9% of Spaniards. Perhaps this explains why Spaniards lead Europe in the habit of going out for a drink.The British attend more adult evening classes than anyone else in Europe, and the Belgians least. So it can't just be the dark evenings. There are no figures on how many Britons go for a drink afterwards. If there were, they might be up at the top with Spain!The British think black cats are lucky. Every other European country regards them unlucky.The Dutch and Germans are the greatest caravanners（活动房居住者）, but the Germans like bigger beds in their caravans.The French are the most athletic Europeans. Next come the Dutch. But the Belgians, just over the border, play fewest sports.The Germans spend twice as much on heating as the Spaniards. Well, of course they do; it's colder. Dutch husbands do the household shopping a lot more often than Italians or Spaniards.The French are the champion public transport commuters （使用月票者）of Europe. If you hate commuting,go and live in the Netherlands, where journeys to work are shorter than anywhere else.The amount of direct eye-contact between strangers is three times greater among Spaniards than it is among the British or Swedish. Sharing a lift is torture (折磨) for both the British and the Swedish. No European countries really agree with any other about how to make good coffee. All of them are different.There are exceptions to all these rules. Deal with them in the spirit of my 8-year-old daughter. “If you don't understand each other's language, you just laugh a lot, and eat, and point at things.”64．If you work or live in Belgium, you ____.A．will have to change your living places oftenB．will seldom see people playing sportsC．will not get used to its cold weatherD．will be invited to go for a drink frequently65．What does “Sharing a lift is torture for both the British and the Swedish” mean?A．The British and the Swedish care about their safety most.B．The British and the Swedish like to appear gentle and smart.C．The British and the Swedish hate to look at each other face to face.D．The British and the Swedish enjoy a richer life than others.66．In the last paragraph, the author wants to express his idea that ____.A．his daughter knows well how to understand foreigners in unfamiliar situationsB．Europeans actually share the same culture even if they have different languagesC．being a European, you will have no living trouble at all in the European UnionD．there are differences between European countries, but don't take it too seriousDThe latest United Nations report on the AIDS spread paints a sad picture. It concludes that the regions of the world most affected by AIDS will experience rapid increases in deaths among young adults. This will have serious social and economic results.The spread of AIDS and the virus that causes it, HIV, is particularly destructive in Africa. It is estimated that in sub-Saharan Africa, over twenty-four million adults and children are now living with HIV. In sixteen sub-Saharan countries, according to the UN, at least ten percent of the people between the age of fifteen and forty-nine are HIV positive (阳性). In South Africa and Zimbabwe, half the people between those ages may die of AIDS. In Botswana, about one in three adults is infected, and some two-thirds of the country's fifteen-year-old boys may die before they grow up.As a result, agriculture, business, education, and health care are already suffering serious loses. The United States is spending millions of dollars to do it. Funding is being used for prevention campaigns and to make AIDS treatment more affordable. Money is also being used to reduce mother-to-child transmission rates; support home and community based care, and provide care for children orphaned by AIDS. The Peace Corps will soon make an all out effort to bring AIDS education to the countries most at risk. It is important that the governments and citizens of those nations most affected by AIDS do their part to fight against it. Some, like Senegal and Uganda, have already begun programs for disease prevention. These countries are experiencing falling or stable HIV rates and less suffering. But for other nations, much remains to be done.67．The report shows that __ __.A．more places are affected by AIDS B．more deaths are caused by AIDSC．more young adults are dying of AIDS D．the spread of AIDS can never be controlled 68．Which of the following statements is true?A．The spread of AIDS is getting worse and more dangerous in Africa.B．In sub-Saharan Africa, 90% of the population are not affected by AIDS.C．In South Africa and Zimbabwe, 50% of the population may die of AIDS.D．In Botswana, one-third of the grown-ups are infected by AIDS69．The money used to fight against AIDS doesn't include that for ____.A．prevention and treatment B．reduction of mother-to-child transmissionC．home and community based care D．orphans infected by AIDS70． The phrase "at risk" in the passage probably means "_____".A．likely to be affected by AIDS B．dangerousC．poor in medical care D．poor in education71． ______ have (has) done better in prevention and treatment for AIDS.A．Sixteen sub-Saharan countries B．South Africa and ZimbabweC．Botswana D．Senegal and UgandaELearning English can sometimes seem like a difficult thing to do-the grammar can be very confusing and spoken English seems to be changing all the time. But, it is not as hard as it seems and the most important thing for any learner to achieve is confidence with the language. If students are nervous about using English or worried about making mistakes, they won't feel like practicing, and without practice they cannot make progress. General English courses aim to give students that confidence. Whether students are complete beginners or advanced learners, schools want them to be confident about using English by the time they finish their course. To do this ,schools have developed General English courses which combine a range of different teaching methods.In class, teachers encourage students to work together so that they can practice new words and grammar. They always try and make this classwork interesting and fun. Many schools are equipped with language laboratories and libraries where students can work on their own with audio tapes, video and computers. And outside the classroom, the learning continues, where students are meeting together socially, visiting localoff ering this type of course, students can go almost anywhere, and while they are studying, they will have a chance to explore the countryside or towns and meet local people. Wherever they go in Britain, they are assured high quality courses.72．If English learners are nervous about using English, ____.A．they won't feel like practicing B．they won't go to EnglishC．they won't go to any language class D．they won't talk to teachers73．Teachers help students practice new words and grammar in class by means of _ _. A．encouraging students to work togetherB．trying and making the classwork interesting and funC．making students speak in English all the timeD． both A and B74．We can learn about the types of General English courses offered by schools from the passage. We can attend ____.A．part time courses—usually 15 hours a weekB．full time courses—up to 40 hours a weekC．courses of a few days or a few weeksD．all of the above75．Which of the following is NOT true?A．General English courses help students practice English not only in the classroom but also outside the classroom.B．We can learn from the passage that there are many schools offering General English courses across Britain.C．General English courses are designed for beginners of English as a second language.D．The aim of General English courses is to make students confident about using EnglishIV 阅读表达阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后字数要求）。

Everywhere I looked was only dark grayness. Even the trees lining the road had become-frightening, __13__ me of some frightening stories. I wondered if it would end.After a while though, the sun broke through the fog and the world was transformed. The golden light beams __14__ the landscape. The red and yellow leaves shone on the trees. Everything seemed full of light and joy again. I smiled and drove singing a song in my heart. I thanked God for both the sunshine and the __15__，because it reminded me again of just how __16__ this world can be.In our lives the fog can roll in sometimes too. Things can go __17__. Problems can appear. Difficulties, pains and troubles can seem to __18__ us and block out all the light in our life. When this happens and the world seems covered in gray we need to remember that we too can __19__ the fog. We too can drive the shadows away with love. We too can transform the world with our joy. We too can light a way through the dark for others to follow. God is willing to fill our souls with his love and light. All he asks is that we share the shine. May all of your foggy days be __20__ then. May your soul shine lightly.

What laws do I live by? There are so many answers — work, beauty, truth, love — and I hope I do live by them. But in everyday things I live by the light of a supplementary set of laws. I’d better call them rules of thumb (经验法则). Rules of thumb aren’t very grand, but they do make the wheels go round.My father and mother sent me to good schools, but the finest thing they did for my education was to have seven children. I was the oldest, and my brothers and sisters were my best teachers.I learned first to pull_my_own_weight_in_the_boat. I learned to make the bed I slept in, and wash the glass I used, and mend what I broke, and clean where I spilled. And if I was too lazy or too particular or too busy, and left it for someone else, somebody else soon taught me different.Then, the same way, I learned that anger is a waste. It hurts nobody but me. And among seven children it got me nowhere. It might reduce four o’cat to three o’cat, but the game went on just the same, and where was I? Out of it. Better go in and join the group around the piano and forget my complaints. Better still, keep my temper, and stay in the game.Here’s a rule thumb that’s important, and the older I get, the more important I think it is. When I can do something, and somebody wants me to do it, I have to do it. The great tragedy of life is not to be needed. As long as you are able and willing to do things for people, you will be needed. Of course you are able; and if so, you can’t say no. My mother is seventy-seven. In seventy-seven years she has never said no. Today she is so much in demand by thirteen grandchildren and countless neighbors that everyone is eager for her presence. When I want to see her I have to pretend emergency.Then there’s the rule of curiosity. Your body would die if you stopped feeling hunger and thirst, and your mind will die if you lose your curiosity. This I learned from my father. My father was a naturalist. He could see the beetle under the bark, and draw it forth unharmed for us to look at through the magnifying glass.

National Security Agency.Because of his bravery, Snowden “helped to make the world a little bit better and safer，”Svallfors wrote. A nomination for Snowden would be symbolic because it shows “that individuals can stand up for fundamental rights and freedoms”.Svallfors compares Snowden’s act to the rulings in the Nuremberg trials of 1945 because “I was just following orders” was not held as an excuse for the Nazis who carried out human rights abuses.Svallfors also believes this will help the Peace Prize regain some of respect it lost after prematurely (过早地) awarding Barack Obama the award in 2009.“It would show its willingness to stand up in defense of civil liberties and human rights, even when such a defense could be viewed with disfavor by the world’s dominant(占支配地位的) military power.”It may be too late for Snowden to receive the award this year. However, Svallfors’nomination should be taken seriously by the committee for next year’s prize. As a sociology professor at Umea University, he counts as one of the “qualified”people who can send their nominations to the committee.The Nobel Peace Prize was started in 1901 and has been awarded to 100 individuals. It wasthe last prize described in Alfred Nobel’s will, which left most of his fortune to the creation of the prizes. Other Nobel Prizes are awarded in the areas of physics, chemistry, medicine and literature. The Peace Prize is awarded each year to “the person who shall have done the most or the best work for friendship between nations, for the abolition (废除) or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses”．Though Snowden is qualified for nomination for the December 2014 prize, it’s unlikely he’d be able to travel to Oslo for the award ceremony. Snowden applied for asylum (庇护) in Norway on July 2, but the country then planned to reject it according to its national law.If Snowden is awarded the prize in 2014, he would be the youngest winner in the history of Nobel Peace Prize.46．According to Professor Svallfors, why should Edward Snowden be recommended for the Nobel Peace Prize?A．Because he helps people to get freedom.B．Because he has uncovered the expansive cyber-spying bravely.C．Because he has paid great personal cost for his heroic effort.D．Because he will help the Nobel Peace Prize regain respect.47．Which of the statements about the Nobel Peace Prize is NOT true?A．People have lost some respect for the Nobel Peace Prize, for Barack Obama won the award in 2009.B．The Nobel Peace Prize was established in 1901, and 100 people have won the awards.C．The first prize described in Alfred Nobel’s will was the Nobel Peace Prize.D．Those who have devoted themselves to friendship between nations can possibly be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.48.Edward Snowden is not awarded the Nobel Peace Prize this year probably because ________.A．he is not qualifiedB．he is too young to win the awardC．he can not go for the award ceremonyD．he has missed the deadline for nomination49．What can we learn about Snowden according to the passage?A．He exposed the details of a top secret of NSA．B．He applied for protection in Sweden on July 2.C．He is able to travel to Oslo for the award ceremony in 2014.D．He will be the youngest winner in the history of Nobel Peace Prize.50．What is the author’s attitude toward the nomination for Snowden?A．Supportive. B．Opposed.C．Objective. D．Persuasive.CPeople who write negative reviews on websites are often a retailer’s most valuable and loyal customers, American research suggests.Retail (零售) specialists at MIT and Northwestern University found the harshest (最严厉的) critics may not have bought the product they were complaining about, but had strong feelings about a service or a brand. The study, which is the first to take an in-depth look at the behavior of customers who write negative reviews online, has shown popular theories that annoying competitors or oddball (古怪的) customers make the harshest criticisms are wrong.Professor Eric Anderson of Northwestern University and Professor Duncan Simester of MIT, examined over 325,000 online reviews written by customers of a large clothing company and examined more than 7,219 book reviews on Amazon. com to produce their study, ABC News reported. They used data collected by the websites that made it possible to match reviews to purchases made.The experts concluded that a firm’s most loyal customers are also their most negative reviewers, or to quote a French motto, “Your best friends are also your harshest critics.”Professor Anderson said that no one had previously looked at the behavior of individual reviewers before and when they told the clothing company they were receivingreceiving negative reviews from their best customers, they were shocked.They also found out the harshest critics had not bought the product they were complaining about and around five percent of product reviews were written by people who had not bought the item they disliked so much. The researchers found that these reviews were also on average much more negative than the 95 percent of genuine reviews written by customers who had purchased a product.After much assumption, the marketing experts concluded that reviewers were acting like “self-appointed brand managers”who like the company and continue buying from it despite penning a venomous review. They found that critics are often complaining about a new product that is slightly different from a company’s core offering and want to tell a company if they suspect it is making a bad decision.Professor Simester believes that customers feel the need to lie about buying a product to review it as they are looking for credibility (可信性)．51．How did Professor Anderson and Professor Simester collect their data needed in the research?A．By searching some websites.B．By interviewing people.C．By investigating in the clothing company.D．By reading some books.52．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．all people who write negative reviews on websites are the most valuable and loyal customersB．annoying competitors or strange customers always make the harshest criticismC．many specialists have studied further the behavior of customers who write negative reviews onlineD．the clothing company hadn’t expected that their best customers wrote negative reviews 53．According to the marketing experts, customers write negative reviews in order to ________.A．complain about the product they have boughtB．make people believe what they sayC．help other customers decide whether to buy the productD．help the company decide whether to develop the new product54．What does the underlined word “venomous” in Paragraph 7 probably mean?A．Kind.B．Helpless.C．Negative.D．Reliable.55．What’s the best title for the passage?A．Who Writes Negative Reviews?B．Negative Reviews, Always Loyal Customers?C．A Research into Online ReviewsD．Who Is Loyal Online?DStephen Hawking, who spends his career decoding(破译) the universeand even experienced weightlessness, is urging the continuation of spaceexploration — for humanity’s sake.The 71-year-old Hawking said he did not think humans would surviveanother 1,000 years “without escaping beyond our fragile planet”．The British cosmologist(宇宙学家) made the remarks on Tuesday before an audience of doctors, nurses and employees at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he toured a stem cell laboratory that’s focused on trying to slow the progression of Lou Gehrig’s disease.Hawking was diagnosed with the neurological disorder(神经障碍) 50 years ago while he was a student at Cambridge University. He recalled how he became depressed and at the beginning didn’t see a point in finishing his doctorate. But he continued to dig into his studies. “If you understand how the universe operates, you control it in a way，” he said.Well-known for his work on black holes and the origins of the cosmos, Hawking is famous for bringing esoteric(只有内行才懂的) physics concepts to the masses through his best-selling books, including A Brief History of Time, which sold more than 10 million copies worldwide. Hawking titled his hourlong lecture to Cedars-Sinai employees A Brief History of Mine.Hawking has survived longer than most people with Lou Gehrig’s disease, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS attacks nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord that control the muscles. People gradually have more and more trouble breathing and moving as muscles weaken and waste away. There’s no cure and no way to reverse the disease’s progression. Few people with ALS live longer than a decade.Hawking receives around-the-clock care, can only communicate by twitching(抽动) his cheek, and relies on a computer fixed to his wheelchair to convey his thoughts in a distinctive robotic monotone.Despite his diagnosis, Hawking has remained active. In 2007, he floated like an astronaut on an aircraft that creates weightlessness by making parabolic (抛物线的) dives. “However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed in，” he said.Dr. Robert Baloh, director of Cedars-Sinai’s ALS program who invited Hawking, said he had no explanation for the physicist’s long life. Baloh said he had treated patients who lived for 10 years or more. “But 50_years_is_unusual,_to_say_the_least，” he said.In 2009, President Barack Obama awarded Hawking the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his work.56．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．Hawking’s disease. B．Hawking’s achievements.C．Hawking’s life. D．Hawking’s research.57．Which of the following shows the right order of what happened to Hawking?a．Hawking made remarks about humans’survival at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.b．Hawking was diagnosed with a terrible disease.c．Hawking floated like an astronaut on an aircraft.d．Hawking was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.A．bcda B．bacdC．bcad D．bdca58．By saying “50 years is unusual, to say the least”，the doctor means ________.A．50 years is a long timeB．Hawking has lived too longC．he didn’t expect Hawking’s long lifeD．he can’t explain why Hawking has lived so long59．In spite of his disease, Hawking can do the following things EXCEPT ________.A．continue to dig into his studiesB．control the universeC．make the public understand difficult physics concepts easilyD．communicate with others via a computer60．What kind of person is Hawking according to the author?A．Determined and optimistic. B．Weak and unfortunate.C．Brave but unconfident. D．Talented but pessimistic.EMen can be beautiful too, right?China is going to host the 18th World University Student Beauty Contest in Guangzhou this December.This year for the first time the contest will include a male section.Students from over 130 countries will compete for Mr.and Miss Beauty.The contest is one of the most respected beauty contests in the world.It was copied by the United Nations University (an international university belonging to the United Nations) in 1986.Stick to studyingLi Yining, an economics professor at Peking University, said that he would not encourage students to try their luck in the stock market (股市)．“They should stress study，” Li said in his speech at Beijing Foreign Studies University.When asked, the professor said he expected house prices in Beijing to continue to rise.Li thinks the government should provide more affordable houses for low-level income people.Campus cinemaStudents at over 100 universities will have a digital cinema on campus after the National Day holiday.The 21st Century Digital Film on Campus Project was launched at the end of September.The ticket will cost 3－8 yuan, rather than 30－40 yuan in the cinemas in town.Students often download movies online or watch DVDs.Now they can enjoy original films in the digital cinemA．The digital cinema will show a variety of films besides Hollywood blockbusters (好莱坞大片)．Getting practicalAll 12,000 graduates from vocational school in Shanxi Province have landed a job, according to the provincial government.In the past five years, it is estimated that over 95 percent of the professional school graduates have found jobs.However, the number of university graduates is 70 percent.Some employers said that they prefer professional school graduates who learned something more practical in school and expected lower salaries than university students.61．In the third part, the underlined word “launched” may mean “________”．A．started B．endedC．told D．mentioned62．Where can the material be chosen from?A．A novel.

But now, 38 I come to knock at the door of adulthood, I feel 39 to express my own 40 on this saying. I know that I am just a high school student with very few experiences. There are still many things 41 me in the future, yet I would like to express myself in a childish voice.I once read this sentence, “To make this world a happy place in which to live, you had better42 yourself and your heart, instead of the whole world.” I was shocked. It made me think about 43 itself. There are so many things around us that 44 our will. We can't force life to follow our wishes. The earth won't stop turning no matter whether we 45 it or not. What we can do is just to make 46 suit the world. I think we should learn to accept 47 life gives us, no matter whether it's the spring sunlight or the winter snowfall, and try to be happy.The pop song Grandmother by Jay Chou is my favorite. I'm deeply moved by this beautiful song. I always try to 48 every pleasant thing in my life, but now I see that I don't catch most of the 49 moments.

When our eyes is made uncomfortable by some small pieces of pollution , or when we are cutting onions, or when we are exhausted and “red-eyes” from over work and late hours, tears form in our eyes to clean and refresh them.Tears are also a sign of strong emotion. We cry when we are sad and we cry when we are happy. And tears seem to be uniquely human. We know that animals also experience emotion fear, pleasure, loneliness, but they do not shed (流) tears.Biologically speaking, tears are actually drops of saline fluid, which is a little bit salty, produced by a gland (腺) in the body. Because salt is an important component, tears may actually constitute the most conclusive evidence that the human animal is the end product of a long evolutionary process that began in the sea.And it is clear that, in addition to the emotional benefits, the shedding of tears has a specific biological function as well. Through tears, we can eliminate from our body certain chemicals which build up in response to stress and create a chemical imbalance in the body. Crying actually makes us feel better by correcting that imbalance and making us feel good again. And thus the emotional and the biological functions of tears merge (合并) into one and make us even more “human”than we would otherwise be.56．According to the passage, human beings may have originated in ____.A．the sea B．the salt C．chemicals D．animals57．Which of the following is NOT a function of tears?A．Biological. B．Emotional. C．Political. D．Chemical.58．According to the article, which of the following is unique to humans?A．The feeling of loneliness. B．The state of feeling good.C．The ability to shed tears. D．The feeling of fear.59．The underlined word “eliminate”probably means ____.A．add B．produce C．replace D．remove60．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A．Tears are a sign of strong emotion.B．Tears are always making us feel more comfortable.C．Tears are uniquely human.D．Tears have certain biological function.BThe railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel. The first rails were made of iron. But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy trains running at a high speed. Railroad officials wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times stronger and lasted twenty times longer. Before the 1870s, however, steel was too expensive to be widely used. It was made by a slow and expensive process of heating, stirring, and reheating ironore (矿石).Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace (熔炉) would burn out the impurities (杂质) that made the iron brittle (易脆). As the air shot through the furnace, the bubbling metal would erupt (喷发) in showers of sparks. When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed, or converted, to steel. The Bessemer converter made possible the mass production of steel, now three to five tons of iron could be changed into steel in a matter of minutes.Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new deposits (矿床) of iron ore in the Mesabi Range, a 120-mile-long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior. The Mesabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam shovels.Barges and steamers carried the iron ore through Lake Superior to deposits on the southern shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. With dizzying speed Gary, Indiana and Toledo, Youngstown, and Cleveland, Ohio, became major steel manufacturing centers. Pittsburgh was the greatest steel city of all.61．The best title for the passage is ____.A．The railroad Industry B．Famous InventorsC．Changing Iron into Steel D．Steel Manufacturing Centers62．According to the passage, how did the Bessemer method make the mass production of steel possible?A．It directed air at melted iron in furnace, removing all impurities.B．It slowly heated iron ore, then stirred it and heated it again.C．It changed iron ore into iron, which was a substitute (替代物) for steel.D．It could be quickly found deposits of iron ore under the ground.63．It can be inferred from the passage that the mass production of steel caused ____.A．a decline in the railroad industry B．a revolution in the industrial worldC．an increase in the price of steel D．a feeling of discontent among steel workersCFor new countries joining the European Union, and older ones getting used to their burgundy passports, becoming “Europeans”is a bit like marrying into a large, eccentric (古怪的) family. Europeans have a lot in common but it is their differences, not their similarities, which attract the attention of sociologists (社会学家) and market researchers, that are more interesting.35% of Germans live alone; but only 9% of Spaniards. Perhaps this explains why Spaniards lead Europe in the habit of going out for a drink.The British attend more adult evening classes than anyone else in Europe, and the Belgians least. So it can't just be the dark evenings. There are no figures on how many Britons go for a drink afterwards. If there were, they might be up at the top with Spain!The British think black cats are lucky. Every other European country regards them unlucky.The Dutch and Germans are the greatest caravanners（活动房居住者）, but the Germans like bigger beds in their caravans.The French are the most athletic Europeans. Next come the Dutch. But the Belgians, just over the border, play fewest sports.The Germans spend twice as much on heating as the Spaniards. Well, of course they do; it's colder.Dutch husbands do the household shopping a lot more often than Italians or Spaniards.The French are the champion public transport commuters （使用月票者）of Europe. If you hate commuting, go and live in the Netherlands, where journeys to work are shorter than anywhere else.The amount of direct eye-contact between strangers is three times greater among Spaniards than it is among the British or Swedish.

It concludes that the regions of the world most affected by AIDS will experience rapid increases in deaths among young adults. This will have serious social and economic results.The spread of AIDS and the virus that causes it, HIV, is particularly destructive in Africa. It is estimated that in sub-Saharan Africa, over twenty-four million adults and children are now living with HIV. In sixteen sub-Saharan countries, according to the UN, at least ten percent of the people between the age of fifteen and forty-nine are HIV positive (阳性). In South Africa and Zimbabwe, half the people between those ages may die of AIDS. In Botswana, about one in three adults is infected, and some two-thirds of the country's fifteen-year-old boys may die before they grow up. As a result, agriculture, business, education, and health care are already suffering serious loses. The United States is spending millions of dollars to do it. Funding is being used for prevention campaigns and to make AIDS treatment more affordable. Money is also being used to reduce mother-to-child transmission rates; support home and community based care, and provide care for children orphaned by AIDS. The Peace Corps will soon make an all out effort to bring AIDS education to the countries most at risk. It is important that the governments and citizens of those nations most affected by AIDS do their part to fight against it. Some, like Senegal and Uganda,have already begun programs for disease prevention. These countries are experiencing falling or stable HIV rates and less suffering. But for other nations, much remains to be done.67．The report shows that __ __.A．more places are affected by AIDS B．more deaths are caused by AIDSC．more young adults are dying of AIDS D．the spread of AIDS can never be controlled 68．Which of the following statements is true?A．The spread of AIDS is getting worse and more dangerous in Africa.B．In sub-Saharan Africa, 90% of the population are not affected by AIDS.C．In South Africa and Zimbabwe, 50% of the population may die of AIDS.D．In Botswana, one-third of the grown-ups are infected by AIDS69．The money used to fight against AIDS doesn't include that for ____.A．prevention and treatment B．reduction of mother-to-child transmissionC．home and community based care D．orphans infected by AIDS70．The phrase "at risk" in the passage probably means "_____".A．likely to be affected by AIDS B．dangerousC．poor in medical care D．poor in education71．______ have (has) done better in prevention and treatment for AIDS.A．Sixteen sub-Saharan countries B．South Africa and ZimbabweC．Botswana D．Senegal and UgandaELearning English can sometimes seem like a difficult thing to do-the grammar can be very confusing and spoken English seems to be changing all the time. But, it is not as hard as it seems and the most important thing for any learner to achieve is confidence with the language. If students are nervous about using English or worried about making mistakes, they won't feel like practicing, and without practice they cannot make progress. General English courses aim to give students that confidence. Whether students are complete beginners or advanced learners, schools want them to be confident about using English by the time they finish their course. To do this ,schools have developed General English courses which combine a range of different teaching methods.In class, teachers encourage students to work together so that they can practice new words and grammar. They always try and make this classwork interesting and fun. Many schools are equipped with language laboratories and libraries where students can work on their own with audio tapes, video and computers. And outside the classroom, the learning continues, where students are meeting together socially, visiting localoffering this type of course, students can go almost anywhere, and while they are studying, theywill have a chance to explore the countryside or towns and meet local people. Wherever they go in Britain, they are assured high quality courses.72．If English learners are nervous about using English, ____.A．they won't feel like practicing B．they won't go to EnglishC．they won't go to any language class D．they won't talk to teachers73．Teachers help students practice new words and grammar in class by means of _ _.

The whip gets all of the attention, but it's mostly for show. In reality, it's the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g. lose weight, start a business, travel more) — only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn't have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to accomplish, someone you want to become ... take immediate action. If you're clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.46．Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A．To trick the lion. B．To show off his skills.C．To get ready for a fight. D．To entertain the audience.47．In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?A．They feel puzzled over choices.B．They hold on to the wrong things.C．They find it hard to make changes.D．They have to do something for show.48．What is the author's attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3?A．Tolerant. B．Doubtful.C．Respectful. D．Supportive.49．When the world is “waving a chair in your face”， you're advised to________.A．wait for a better chance B．break your old habitsC．make a quick decision D．ask for clear guidanceBI grew up on a little farm in Missouri.I left the farm at 18. Since then I've tried to experience a little of my country childhood through travel again. The one that feels most like my childhood home is the historic Hasse House Ranch (牧场) in Art, Texas.We found it one April several years ago while traveling in Texas Hill Country to see the beautiful spring wildflowers. We had no place to stay that night until we saw an open gate by a B&B sign. We drove through the gate and up the little quiet country.I felt as if I had come home. Patrick and I have returned several times, because we find Hill Country and Hasse House Ranch one of the most peaceful places in Texas. I've wanted to bring along my grandsons, 4yearold Jimmy and 2yearold Anderson, so they could experience the wonder of country life. I finally got my chance last spring.Jimmy ran into the Texas ranch house as soon as Grandpa Patrick unlocked the door. He stopped in the center of the room and dropped the toys he carried.“Wow，” he cried, “this is a great place！”Patrick started an evening habit for the boys of putting them in their American Flyer and pulled them along the 2mile nature path to find and say “good night” to the cows. In the quiet evening before sundown, birds filled the trees, singing before settling down to roost. My husband and the boys returned to the house, ready to settle down to roost themselves.The next morning the boys could hardly wait to see the wild animals and make sure that the cows were up. They saw the best of Texas countryside: deer in a pecan woods, wild birds, turkeys, wild pigs, and cattle in pastures crowded with wildflowers.For months after the visit, Jimmy hasn't stopped talking about theranch.“Grammie, will you take me back to the ranch tomorrow？”he asked me hopefully.50．The writer's aim to travel is to ________.A．enjoy the beautiful countryside sceneryB．visit her old friends here and thereC．experience her own country childhoodD．visit some historic places of interest51．How did the writer find the ranch house?A．Quite by chance. B．Through the Internet.C．On purpose. D．The article didn't tell us.52．Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word in Paragraph 6?A．Fly. B．Sleep.C．Play. D．Hide.53．From the passage, we can infer that ________.A．the family would never visit the ranch againB．Anderson didn't like the ranch at allC．the visit to the ranch was very dangerousD．the family enjoyed the ranch very muchCHelen Thomas, the pioneering White House reporter known forputting presidents on the hot seat, died at 92.To those who regularly watch presidential press conferences,Helen Thomas is a familiar ually dressed in red andalways seated in the front row, she is always the first or secondreporter the president calls upon.It is an honor she has earned.Besides, it affords her the perfect opportunity to do what she does best —challenge the president and other public officials to tell the plain truth. She said, “We reporters' priority (首要事情) is the people's right to know —without fear or favor.We are the people's servants.”Helen Thomas was born in Kentucky in 1920.All the nine Thomas children were brought up to value education, and all were expected to make something of themselves through working hard.She made up her mind while still in high school to become a reporter after writing for the student newspaper.After receiving her bachelor'sdegree in 1942, Thomas headed straight for Washington, D．C., in search of a newspaper job.Before long, she landed one at Washington Daily News.Her duty included fetching coffee and doughnuts for the paper's reporters and editors.The eager young woman found the atmosphere exciting and was convinced she had made the right career choice.Her big break came when she was sent to Florida to report on the vacation of Presidentelect John F．Kennedy and his family.Once President Kennedy took office, Thomas changed her focus from the president's family to his policies.She began attending the daily press briefings at the White House as well as presidential press conferences. Thomas has covered every president since Kennedy.Over the years, Thomas f ound her job “thrilling and inspiring”， but never boring.And she took very seriously her duty to “keep an eye on the president” and keep American people informed.54．What can we learn about Helen Thomas from the passage?A．Her career took off after covering the Kennedys.B．Her first job was to deliver doughnuts to a news agency.C．She was born to a large family in Kentucky in 1942.D．She decided to be a reporter while in college.55．Paragraph 3 is written to show Helen Thomas________.A．is a good decisionmaker for her careerB．appreciates education and hard workC．wants to be famous by writing reportsD．has great support from her family56．What does Helen Thomas think of her work?A．Unbearable.
