The fact that a child picks up a language 39 is surprising: at one year old, a child is able to 40 "bye-bye"; at two, he is able to use fifty words; by three he begins to 41 tenses. The famous American linguist Noam Chomsky 42 that human beings have a sort of built-in system for language use, and that the 43 is only secondary. Children are not taught language 44 they are taught arithmetic. Other linguists, 45 , hold the view that a child learns 46 of his language from the hints in the environment. 47 , theorists of both schools 48 that there is a biological basis for language and language use. The 49 is which is more important, the inner ability or the environment. This is certainly a field 50 to be explored. Researchers from both schools are busy finding evidence to 51 their own theory, but 52 side is persuading the other. It seems that in order to 53 why a child learns a language so easily, we have to 54 the joint efforts of both schools. Some linguists, like De Villiers, have recognized the value of cooperation, and 55 linguists of both sides to work together.36. A. Surprisingly B. Personally C. Properly D. Roughly37.

This helps us to adjust to the outside world. Without our nerves and our brain, which is a system of nerves, we couldn't know what's happening. But we pay for our sensitivity. We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. The history of torture (折磨) is based on the human body being open to pain.But there is a way to handle pain. kook at the Indian fakir (苦行僧) who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle right through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain.The big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude towards it. ff the dentist says, "This will hurt a little," it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation, we can handle the pain without falling apart. After all, although pain is unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life.56. What does the writer mean by saying "we pay for our sensitivity'" in the first paragraph?A. We have to take care of our sense of' pain.B. We suffer from our sense of feeling.C. We should try hard to resist pain.D. We are hurt when we feel pain.57. When the author mentions' file Indian fakir, he shows that _________.A. fakirs possess magic powerB. Indians are not afraid of painC. people can learn to cope with painD. some people are born without a sense of pain58. What is essential for people to stand pain according to the writer?A. Their relaxation.B. Their interest.C. Their nerves.D. Their attitude.59. The author believes that _________.A. feeling pain is part of our lifeB. pain should be avoided at all costsC. feeling pain can be an interesting thingD. magic power is essential for reducing painBThe eight airlines of the Oneworld alliance (联盟) have joined forces to give world travelers a simple way to plan and book a round-the-world journey. It's called the Oneworld Explorer program.Oneworld Explorer is the perfect solution for a once-in-a-lifetime holiday or an extended business trip.

The Oneworld Explorer program is said to be most suitable for those who _____.A. have been to the four comers of the earthB. travel around the world on businessC. want to explore the eight airlinesD. need support all along the way61. The advantage of the alliance lies in ________.A. its detailed travel informationB. its unique booking systemC. its longest business flightsD. its global service network62. We can learn from the last paragraph that Oneworld __________.A. offers the lowest prices to its passengersB. keeps passengers better informed of its operationsC. offers better services than any of its member airlines aloneD. is intended to make round-the-world trips more challenging63. The propose of the advertisement is to ___________.A. promote a special flight programB. recommend a long business tripC. describe an alliance flightD. introduce different airlinesCI recently wrote an autobiography in which I recalled many old memories. One of them was from my school day's, when our ninth grade teacher, Miss Raber, would pick out words from the Reader's Digest to test our vocabulary.Today, more than 45 years later, I always check out "It pays to Enrich your Word Power" first when the Digest comes each month. I am impressed with that idea, word power. Reader's Digest knows the power that words have to move people — to entertain, inform, and inspire. The Digest editors know that the big word isn't always the best word. Take just one example, a Quotable Quote from the February 1985 issue: "Time is a playful thing. It slips quickly and drinks the day like a bowl of milk."Seventeen words, only two of them more than one syllable, yet how much they convey! That's usually how it is with Reader's Digest. Small and simple can be profound.As chairman of a foundation to restore the Statue of Liberty, I've been making a lot of speeches lately. I try to keep them fairly short. I use small but vivid words: words like "hope", "guts", "faith", "dreams". Those am words that move people and say' so much about the spirit of America.Don't get me wrong. I'm not against using big words, when it is right to do so, but I have also learned that a small word can work a small miracle — if it's the right word, in the right place, at the right time. It's a "secret" that I hope I never forget.64. The passage is mainly about _______.A. one of the many old memoriesB. using simple words to express profound ideasC. Reader's Digest and school speechesD. how to make effective speeches65. It seems that Reader's Digest is a magazine popular with _________.A. people of all agesB. teenagersC. school teachersD. elderly readers66. The author's "secret" is _________.A. to avoid using big words at any timeB. to use words that have the power to move peopleC. to work a miracle by using a small wordD. to use small and simple words where possible67. According to the author, well-chosen words can give people ________.A. hope, courage, and ideasB. confidence, determination, and strengthC. pleasure, knowledge, and encouragementD. entertainment, information, and powerDThere are two kinds of memory: short-mm and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate (中等), and native speaking students.To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording, Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning's results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.68. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Information in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.B. Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C. It is easier to test short-term memory than long, term memory.D. Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.69. From Henning's result we can see that ________.A. beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of wordsB. advanced students always remember words by their meaningC. it is difficult to remember words that sound alikeD. it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning70. The word "subject" in the passage means _________.A. memoryB. the theme of listening materialC. a branch of knowledge studiedD. the student experimented on71. The passage centers on ________.A. memoryB. two kinds of memoryC. short-term memoryD. an experiment on studentsESuccessful innovations (改革) have driven many older technologies to extinction (灭绝) and have resulted in higher productivity, greater consumption of energy, increased demand of raw materials and the speed of flow of materials through the economy and increased quantities of metals and other substances in use for each person. The history of industrial development has a great number of examples.In 1870, homes and mules were the prime source of power on U.S. farmers. One horse or mule was required to support four human beings, a ratio (比率) that remained almost constant for many decades. At that time, had a national commission been asked to forecast the population for 1970, its answer probably would have depended on whether its consultants were of an economic or technological mm of mind. Had they been "economists", they would probably have projected the 1970 home or mule population to be more than 50 million. Had they been "technologists", they would have recognized that the power of steam had already been harnessed (受……约束) to industry and to land and ocean transport. They would have recognized further that it would be the prime source of power on the farm. It would have been difficult for them to avoid the conclusion that the home and mule population would decline rapidly.72. Which of the following is NOT mentioned by the author as a consequence of new technological developments?A. Older technologies die away.B. The quality of life is improved.C. Overall productivity increase.D. More raw materials become necessary.73. It can be inferred from the passage that by 1870 ________.A. technology began to be more economicalB. the steam engine had not been inventedC. the U.S. horse population was about 10 millionD. a national commission on agriculture had been established74. In the second paragraph, the author suggests that "economists" would ________.A. plan the economy through yearly forecastsB. fail to consider the influence of technological innovationC. value the economic contribution of farm animalsD. consult the national commission on the economy75. What is the author's attitude towards changes brought on by technological innovations?A. He is excited about themB. He accepts them as naturalC. He is disturbed by themD. He questions their usefulnessIV 短文改错此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

Probably the main reason is that some aspect of that poem resonates (产生共鸣) with you. In the same way, you too as a school leader can touch the hearts of your teachers and students.Poetry allows us to experience strong spiritual connections to things around us and to the past. The power that poetry has displayed over time and across cultures actually satisfies this common need of the human heart and soul.As one of the oldest art forms, poetry has successfully connected carious parts of humanity (人性) from one generation to another. Referring to poetry, Hillyer makes a simple yet meaningful statement,” With this key mankind unlocked his heart.”School leaders can find and make use of the value of poetry for themselves, their students and their teachers. Beyond the simple use of poetry, techniques of poetry such as repetition (重复) can be sued to take advantage of the power of language to transform communication, create meaning and culture of care and attention.Since schools are mainly about people and relationships, school leaders, like poets, are required to inspire and encourage the human heart. The use of poetry — or even of some techniques of poetry — in school leadership not only helps to improve communication, but also serves to meet the human need for inspiration.4．Who is the passage mainly written for?A．Students. B．Teachers.C．School leaders. D．Poets.5．What does the underlined part “this common need” in the second paragraph refer to? A．The need to read poetry.B．The need to be inspired.C．The need to learn about the past.D．The need to be connected with surroundings.6．The use of poetry or techniques of poetry in school leadership is in fact to make use of______ .A．the power of languageB．the power of school leadersC．people’s preference for poetryD．people’s desire for communication7．What is the purpose of the passage?A．To talk about the art of being a school leader.B．To show readers that poetry is really powerful.C．To explain how poetry can be used in our daily life.D．To encourage school leaders to use the power of poetry in school leadership.二、七选五Snow blindness —it’s a frightening phrase. Thankfully, it’s a condition that is preventable.Snow blindness is a painful and temporary loss of vision due to overexposure to the sun’s UV rays. Essentially, snow blindness is caused by a sunburned eye.You don’t need snow to become snow blind. 8．The terms “ snow blind ” and “ snow blindness “ have become popular because snow can highly reflect ultraviolet radiation. 9．Also, skiing, mountain climbing and snowboarding usually take pla ce at relatively high altitudes, where the sun’s UV rays are stronger. Combined, these factors can double your risk of getting sunburned eyes, compared with being outdoors at lower altitudes in the summertime.10．Television journalist Anderson Cooper experienced snow-free snow blindnessfirst-hand a few years ago when he spent a couple hours on a boat in Portugal without sunglasses and ended up “ being blind for 36 hours”, according to his report of the incident.Not only can you become snow blind without snow — it can happen without sunlight, too! 11．For example, sun lamps can cause temporary snow blindness if proper eye protection is not used.12．To relieve pain or discomfort from snow blindness, stay indoors and wear sunglasses.Keep your eyes well-moistened with artificial tears. For additional relief, use over-the-counter pain relievers. Be sure to use only pain relievers you know you can take without worry of an allergic reaction. You also may find that placing a cool and dampened washcloth over your closed eyelids is comforting.A．It will likely affect those traveling in snowy conditions.B．To prevent snow blindness on the slopes, wear sunglasses.C．Sometimes it occurs from man-made sources of ultraviolet radiationD．In fact, snow can reflect over 80 percent of the UV rays that fall upon it.E.Though it is commonly called snow blindness, the condition can occur in the absence of snow.F.But water and white sand also highly reflect the sun’s UV rays, thus increasing the risk.G.Snow blindness is scary, but usually it’s temporary, and there are ways to relieve the discomfort.三、提纲类作文13．假定你校英语角举办“我最喜欢的一本书”征文活动，目的是向同学们推荐值得一读的书，鼓励同学们去发现阅读的快乐。

But it was not a valuable book, and so a poor man, who could read little, bought it for very little money.The book wasn’t very interesting, but between its pages there was something very interesting indeed. It was a thin strip of vellum on which was written the secret of the “Touchstone”! The touchstone was a small pebble that could turn any common metal into pure gold.The writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this: The real stone would feel warm, while ordinary pebbles are cold.So the man sold his few belongings, bought some simple supplies, camped on the seashore, and began testing pebbles. He knew that if he picked up ordinary pebbles and threw them down again because they were cold, he might pick up the same pebble hundreds of times. So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into the sea. He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone. Yet he went on and on this way. Pick up a pebble. Cold, throw it into the sea. Pick up another. Throw it into the sea. Pick up another. Throw it into the sea. The days continued over a long period of time.One day, however, about mid-afternoon, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done. He had formed such a strong habit of throwing each pebble into the sea that when the one he wanted came along he still threw it away.So it is with opportunity. Unless we are careful, it’s easy to fail to recognize an opportunity when it is in hand and it’s just as easy to throw it away.46. The man bought the book because ______.A. he wanted to read itB. it was very interestingC. there was a secret in the bookD. he wanted tofind the touchstone47.

We should seek for opportunities in the world.C. We may seize opportunities when we are watchful.D. We may discover opportunities when forming habits.BPeople living in the UK take quite a few holidays abroad and in the country each year. Choices made about where to go, how to get there and what to do can either benefit or harm the environment.While on holidayMany of the things you can do to the greener on holiday will be the same things you can do at home—but there are also some extra things too, like avoiding gifts made from endangered plants and animals.

Check before you buy, but if you doubt, avoid animal and plant gifts. More details of the types of products to avoid any illegal trade hotspots can be found on the Souvenir Alert webpage.Making a positive contribution to the place you are visiting.There are ways in which your holiday can help support local people and the environment.●There are many opportunities to volunteer and help with projects that conserve and improve natural habitats.●When you are away, or if you are looking for some where to visit, you can support projects or attractions which protect wildlife, such as nature reserves and conservation projects.49.

Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at ‘bed and breakfast’houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.“We didn’t stay at bed and breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.”I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought ‘VACANCIES’ meant ‘holidays’, because the Spanish word for ‘holidays’ is ‘vacaciones’. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said ‘VACANCLES’, which in Englishmeans there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said ‘NO VACANCLES’, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word ‘DIVERSION’ means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word ‘DIVERSION’ on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hold. English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris, when someone offered me some more coffee, I said “Thank you” in French. I meant that I would like some more. However, to my surprise, the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that “Thank you” in French means “No, thank you.”53. My Spanish friends wanted advice about ______.A. learning EnglishB. finding places to stay in EnglandC. driving their car on English roadsD. going to England by car54. ‘NO VACANCIES’ in English means ______.A. no free roomsB. free roomsC. not away on holidayD. holidays55. When someone offered me more coffee and I said “Thank you” in French, I ______.A didn’t really want any more coffee B. wanted them to take the coffee pot awayC. really wanted some more coffeeD. wanted to express my politeness56. I was surprised when the coffee pot was taken away becauseI ______.A. hadn’t finished drinking my coffeeB. was expecting another cup of coffeeC. meant th at I didn’t want any moreD. was never misunderstoodDRobert is nine years old and Joanna is seven.
