You can know something about the past.BTulips are beautiful flowers which were originally grown in Turkey. They were introduced into Europe in the 1500’s. In the Netherlands (荷兰), they became very popular. Tulips became expensive flowers as they took many years to grow from a seed to flower. Today, in Holland, tulips are highly valued and grown commercially for export. Tulip plants are grown from bulbs(球茎) or seeds. Both the male and female parts are formed. As the plant grows, thick pointed leaves developed. They provided food for the growing plants.The tulip flower will start to bloom in early spring. When the weather is cold or rainy, the tulip flowers will close up. On the other hand, when the weather is sunny, the flowers will bloom.Throughout the world, many varieties of tulips are grown. They bloom in different colors: red, yellow, white, and pink. Thecup-shaped and bell-shaped tulips are the most common ones. There are different reasons why tulips are grown. They are grown for pleasure in parks and gardens. They are also raised for the bulbs that are sold to people who store the bulbs to be grown in their gardens. These beautiful flowers also attract insects which help to pollinate(授花粉) the flowers.49. Why were Tulips expensive to grow?A. Because they were grown usually in Europe.B. Because they grew from seeds.C. Because they started to bloom in early spring.D. Because they took a long time to grow.50. What offer food to the plants?A. LeavesB. BulbsC. RootsD. seeds51. The tulips flower blooms when the weather is __________.A. wet and windyB. warm and fineC. rainy or cloudyD. windy and cold52. The main idea of the last paragraph is ____________.A. the reason of growing tulipsB. the pleasure in raising tulipsC. the benefit of selling bulbsD. the insects on attractive tulipsCI’m a pig, and my son is a rabbit. I have snakes for daughters, and my wife, believe it or not, is a dragon! Do I live in a zoo? No, of course not! I am talking about Chinese zodiac signs. Depending on the year of your birth, each person has an animal for a sign. That’s why I am a pig and my wife is a dragon. If you, like me, were born in the year of the pig, then you are brave, thoughtful and loyal. The year of the pig is filled with good fortune.Now let’s take a closer look at this interesting animal.Pigs were first raised by man about 9,000 years ago, and are still a very common farm animal in many parts of the world. We don’t just use pigs for their meat —almost every part of the animal is used. The hair is used for artists’brushes. The fat is used to make floor wax, rubber and plastics.Pigs have also been important in the world of entertainment. In 1995 the film ‘Babe’starred a loveable talking pig as its main character. The film won an Oscar and was nominated for 6 more. In England you can even go to watch pig racing. A farmer, Rob Shepherd, has been raising money for charity by holding pig races on his farm. The events have been very successful. People don’t just want to eat pigs, it seems!Pigs also play an important role in the English language. For example, if someone says that he will travel to the sun one day, you can say “pigs might fly!”to him. Hungry? Well then, you can “pig out”and eat lots of food. And what if someone rescues you? Well, you can say that they “saved your bacon”.53. The writer wrote the first paragraph in a _______tone(语气).A. sadB. confusedC. seriousD. humorous54. We may know from the passage that ______.A. people in England like pigs more than other animalsB. pigs are more useful than ordinary people imagineC. pigs are the first animals raised by manD. more people don’t want to eat pigs now55. The underlined sentence “pigs might fly!”in the fifth paragraph means “______”.A. What you have just said is impossibleB. Pigs are great animalsC. I don’t understand your wordsD. I can’t agree with you more56. Which diagram shows the structure(结构) of the passage?A B CDDTo understand how Americans think about things, it is necessary to understand “the point”. Americans mention it often: “Let’s get right to the point.”They will say, “My point is…”“What’s the point of all this?”The “point”is the idea or piece of information that Americans suppose is, or should be, at the center of people’s thinking, writings, and spoken comments. Speakers and writers are supposed to“make their points clear”, meaning that they are supposed to say or write clearly the idea or piece of information they wish to express.People from many other cultures have different ideas about the point. Africans traditionally tell stories that express the thoughts they have in mind, rather than stating the point clearly. Japanese traditionally speak indirectly, leaving the listener to figure out what the point is. Thus, while an American might say to a friend, “I don’t think that coat goes very well with the rest of your outfit,”a Japanese might say, “Maybe another coat would look even better than the one you have on.”Americans value a person who “gets right to the point”. Japanese are likely to consider such a person insensitive if not rude.The Chinese and Japanese languages are characterized by vagueness(模糊) and ambiguity（含糊）. The precision and directness Americans associate with “the point”cannot be achieved, at least not with any grace, in Chinese and Japanese. Speakers of those languages thus have to learn a new way of reasoning and expressing their ideas if they are going to communicate satisfactorily（满意地）with Americans.57. According to the passage, Americans expect speakers and writers to__________ .A. express their personal viewsB. be clear about their main ideasC. be honest about their true feelingsD. give as much information as possible58. Which of the following peoples will tell a story to express what they have in mind?A. Americans.B. Chinese.C. Japanese.D. Africans.59. The underlined word “outfit”in the third paragraph probably means ______.A. appearanceB. behaviorC. speechD. clothes60. In order to communicate with Americans satisfactorily, speakers of Chinese need to___.A. mind their mannersB. explain their reasons clearlyC. change their ways of expressing ideasD. be careful about their choices of wordsII卷（25分）阅读理解（本题共5小题，共10分）根据短文内容，从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项是多余的（七选五）。

His teacher said he showed little hope because of his boring eyes. To improve this, he exercised them day after day. Thanks to his efforts, hemanaged to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.In over 50 years on the stage, Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the performance. He also wrote many new plays, designing the dances himself. The many dances he created form part of the great treasure that he left to Peking Opera.In 1930, Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour.

Many of them have surfaces of rock or clay or small stones. They are not flat, either. They often have high hills and deep valleys. There is some plants’life in many parts of the desert. There is little rain in the desert, but it does fall often enough for most plants.The deserts of the world are not uninhabited(not lived by people). People also live outside oases(绿洲), but these people are not farmers. They have camels, goats, donkeys, sheep, etc. These animals can live on the desert plants and do not need much water. The people of the desert have to move constantly from place to place, they must always look for grass or desert plants for their animals. They usually live in tents. When there is no more food for their animals, they fold up their tents, pat them on their camels and donkeys, and move to another place. In good years, when there is enough food for their animals, they trade their skins and their goats and camel hairs with the people of oases for wheat and fruit. But in bad years, when there is not enough food for their animals, the people of the desert would attack the oases people. But they are also hospitable, no man in the desert would ever refuse to give a stranger food and water.59. According to the passage, deserts are mostly made up of_______.A. clayB. rockC. stonesD. sand60. The underlined word “hospitable”has the meaning of being_______.A. braveB. cruelC. strangeD. kind61. In the desert _______.A. it rains in spring onlyB. there is some rain, but far from enoughC. it rains for a short time every monthD. the rainfall is just enough for the plants62.

From the passage we know that life _______.A. is hard in desertsB. is happy in desertsC. is impossible in desertsD. in deserts is much better nowCIndia has many festivais, with some celebrations that last for weeks. However, none of them come even close to Holi, India’s most colorful and fun festival. Celebrated on the day following the fullmoon, this year’s festival happens to be on March 19th.As with most Indian festivals, this one also has many different folk stories. Most of them center around the success of good over evil. The most popular one is about a king, who hates his son Prahlada for loving the creator of the Universe—Lord Vishnu. When every attempt to stop him fails, his sister, Holika believed to beimmune(免疫的) to fire, joins in the effort by inviting the young boy to sit with her inside a huge fire. Helped by the power of Lord Vishnu, Prahlada escapes safely, while the evil Holika is burned to death. To remember this event, huge outdoor fires are lit in the night before Holi in order to clean the air of evil spirits and to celebrate the death of the evil.So what’s so great about this day? While there are some fun parades(游行) and folk songs and dance performances, the most fun of all is walking to the streets and splashing(泼洒) people with water guns and dry colors and even covering them with entire buckets of colored water. On this day, everybody is fair game, no matter how old or how young.At about midday, the splashing comes to an end and people living close to oceans or rivers usually take a bath in the water to clean themselves before going home to a delicious home-made big dinner and a well-deserved short sleep, following this full day of funand activities.64. Why does the king dislike his son Prahlada?A. Because Prahlada doesn’t love him.B. Because Prahlada is rude to Holika.C. Because Prahlada loves Lord Vishnu.D. Because Prahlada concentrates on his own success.65. Prahlada gets out of danger __________.A. with the help of Lord VishnuB. because of his good luckC. by beating his aunt HolikaD. using his amazing talent66. The underlined phrase “fair game”in Paragraph 3 refers to a person who __________.A. fights against others fairlyB. enjoys splashing peopleC. plays a trick on othersD. is the aim of splashing water67. After the fun activities, people living close to oceans or rivers often take a bath because __________.A. they have got dirty with dry colors and colored waterB. going home with colored water means bad luckC. they believe clean water will bring good luckD. taking a bath shows their true love for Lord VishnuDBelow is adapted from an English dictionary.

At 13，my hopes of fame and fortune clouded all judgement and I begged my parents to let me go.We have never been rich，but they saw my enthusiasm and agreed.I imagined being signed by some famous model companies. For months，any boredom or disappointment I faced was pushed aside because I knew I would soon have the chance to be real model. I thought I would grace the covers of famous magazines!Of course，I wasn't signed，but what hurt the most was being told that if I grew to 5′9″(about 1.75 metres) I could be a success. I prayed for a growth spurt (冲刺) because I could not imagine giving up my dream. I made an appointment with a local modeling agency and the agent demanded $500 for classes. $500 for a photo shoot，and $300 for other expenses. My parents only agreed after hours and hours of my begging.The agency sent me out on a few auditions，but with every day I didn't receive a call，I grew more depressed. The_final_straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial modeling. There was an open call in New York City.We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting，only to be told that I was too short. I was devastated (极度不安的)．Years later，I realized that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I didn't actually love modeling，just the idea of it. I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal. The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future.72．What's the author's parents' attitude toward her dream? A．Encouraging. B．Worried. C．Doubtful. D．Enthusiastic. 73．What was it that made the author end her attempt to become a model?A．Her parents were strongly against it.B．She realized that it was impossible for her.C．Even a local modeling agency turned her down.D．She realized that she didn't actually love the idea of modeling. 74．The underlined phrase “The final straw”probably means________.A．the last in a series of bad things that happen to make someonevery upset，angry，etc...B．the final result that she was admitted by the model company. C．the final audition given by the agency.D．the decision that she made at last not to be a model any more. 75．What did the author learn from her experience of struggling to be a model?A．Where there's a will there's way.B．Being a model is not that easy.C．We should have our own judgement and should not just follow others.D．We might set unpractical goals but the experience can help us grow.第Ⅱ卷主观题（共35分）第一节：单词拼写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）76.

Suddenly I 21 that a man sitting at a table near the window kept glancing in my direction, 22 he knew me. The man had a newspaper 23 in front of him, which he was 24 to read, but I could 25 that hewas keeping an eye on me. When the waiter brought my 26 the man was clearly puzzled (困惑) by the 27 way in which the waiter and I 28 each other. He seemed even more puzzledas 29 went on and it became 30 that all the waiters in the restaurant knew me. Finally he got up and went into the 31 . When he came out, he paid his bill and 32 without another glance in my direction.I called the owner of the restaurant and asked what the manhad 33 . “Well,”he said, “that man was a detective (侦探).He 34 you here because he thought you were the manhe 35 .”“What?”I said, showing my 36 .

If you can recite the text and write it out, you’ve learned it fairly well. And if you can tell, in your own words, what the lesson says you’re a very successful learner indeed. Your English will bequite perfect.This is a difficult task. However, if you try to learn by heart only part of each lesson, you’ll find it not half so hard as you might have thought.Learning this way, you will make rapid progress. Of course, writing is also necessary. It helps you a lot on our way to success in English.Equally important is to feel the language. You should be able to laugh at jokes and be shocked at bad news. When using English, try to forget your mother tongue. Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way. So, never try to see English through translation.41.In the writer’s opinion, the most effective way in learning English is ____.A. to practise speaking, writing and feeling itB. to forget your own native languageC. to translate everything into his own languageD. to memorize the English words and grammatical rules42. “Instead of helping you, your own language gets in your way.”This sentence means that memorizing your own language can________.A. help you to study English wellB. stop you mastering EnglishC. make English easy to learnD. help you notice mistakes43.Equally important is to feel the language. “to feel the language”here means_____.A. to get a knowledge of English by touchingB. to be able to read and write EnglishC. to translate English into your own by imaginingD. to be able to experience the rich sensation of the languageBTrees are useful to man in three important ways: they give him wood and other useful things, they give him cool places, and they help to stop drought and flood.Unluckily, in many parts of the world, man has not found that the third of these points is the most important. Man wants to make money from trees, so he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. And also, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even worse: for where there are trees, their roots break upsoil-make the rain in-and also bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carryingaway the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.44.The most important points of trees to man is ________.A. they help him to make moneyB. they give him coolC. they give him wood and other thingsD. they help him to stop drought and floods45.In many places forests slowly disappear because ________ .A. many trees have been cut down by manB. new trees are not well looked afterC. man has not paid enough attention to planting treesD. all the abovend becomes desert after all trees are cut down because________ .A. roots of trees break up the soilB. there are too many rainfallsC. strong winds bring a lot of sandD. there are no longer trees to keep the rain and protect the top-soil.47.Which title best fits the passage?A. Trees and ManB. The Function of Tree WoodC. How do People do with Trees?D. The Usage of Tree RootsCIt was a winter morning，just a couple of weeks before Christmas2005. While most people were warming up their cars，Trevor，my husband，had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival，he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor，he returned to find his bike gone.The bike，a black Kona 18 speed，was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work，putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries （食品杂货），saving us from having to walk along long distances from where we live.I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that，several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike，then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another，but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity （人性）as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we，too，can share withothers. No matter how big or how small，an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.48. Why was the bike so important to the couple？A. They used it for work and daily life.B. It was their only possession(财产).C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.D. The man‘s job was bike racing.49. We can infer from the passage that __________.A. the couple worked 60 hours a weekB. people were busy before ChristmasC. the stranger brought over the bikeD. life was hard for the young family50. How did people get to know the couple‘s problem？A. From a stranger.B. From a newspaper.C. From TV newsD. From radio broadcasts.51. What do the couple learn from their experience？A. Strangers are usually of little help.B. One should take care of their bike.C. News reports make people famous.D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.52. From this story，we can see humanity is __________.A. selfishB. commercialC. kindD. cold-heartedDBefore coming to France，I always thought that French people wear formal clothes. But，when I arrived in Paris，I came to know why France could remain the lead in world fashion and Paris could attract so many designers from all over the world to come.On the boulevard of Champs-elysees，there are many fashion shops of famous brands，such as Chanel，Dior，Pierre Cardin. In daily life，however，most of Parisians never wear clothes like those on the super models. On the opposite，I found people in Paris often dress in very simple designs and usually in dark.Such situation doesn‘t affect French designers to create more and more new styles. But I would say people in Paris dress more formally than those in the rest of France. In other French cities，what people wear are usually casual dresses，such as T-shirts and jeans.French people act as the fashion leaders，but they accept other clothes styles as well. Montpellier，the city I live in，is in southern France near the Mediterranean Sea. Here are many immigrants（移民）from Algeria，Morocco and other African countries. The Arabian and African cultures are influential（有影响的）in this city.Therefore，you can find a lot of young people dress in the North African style.53.
