"He was a sixty-one-year-old man with very severe throat cancer. He had lost a great deal of weight. He could 58 swallow his own saliva and could eat no food."I taught him to 59 and mentally see his disease," Simonton says. "Then I had him 60 an army of white blood cells coming, attacking and 61 the cancer cells. The results of the treatment were both exciting and frightening. Within two weeks his cancer had noticeably become smaller and he was quickly gaining weight. I say it was ' 62 ' because I had never seen such a change. I wasn't sure what was going on. I also didn't know what I would do if things went wrong. But 63 didn't go wrong."We may believe that we have the power in our own bodies to fight cancer as well as the power to 64 the disease in the first place.

PST, Associated PressThe respiratory (呼吸系统)virus known as SARS has appeared to spread in the United States only to family members of health workers with close contact to a sick person.On Thursday, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said there might be a case of severe acute respiratory syndrome(综合症)spreading through the workplace.Dr. Julie Gerberding said a suspected SARS virus patient who became ill after traveling to Asia might have infected a co-worker in Florida, which made her “very worried”.So far, a dozen people—nine family members and three health workers—were infected after coming into close contact with the person with SARS. The rest of the 166 suspected American cases have something to do with people who were infected while traveling in Asia.In the Gainesville, Fla. area, a 47-year-old woman was believed to have been infected at work by a 60-year-old woman who was the nation’s first suspected SARS case, said Tom Belcuore, director of the Alachua County health department.Since the World Health Organization announced a worldwide warning last month about SARS, the United States has started infection control in hospitals and among families of suspected cases.Florida officials said a school in Okaloosa County went through a cleaning after a 6-year-old boy suspected of having SARS appeared at school with slight symptoms. “Health officials are watching the boys’ contacts at school to make sure no one else is infected,” said Rob Hayes, health department spokesman, “The boy may have been infected from a family member,”Hayes said, “We immediately became aware of it and had the child sent home. He’s staying at home with his family until 10 days after symptoms disappear.”The researchers guessed that the virus might have come from animals. However, the scientists have not ruled out the possibility that some other microbe(微生物)might also help make SARS more serious or easier to catch.73. How many cases of suspected SARS are there in the U.S.A. according to the text?A. 178.B. 166.C. 12.D. 181.74. The writer wrote this text mainly to _______.A. discuss the danger of SARSB. report research result about SARSC inform people of the spread of SARS D. explain to the readers what SARS is75.

You have a job, a family and you’re about 40 years old. Welcome to your future life.Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror. “Turn red,”you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronics(智能电子元件) are rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe you’re 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old.

They read the tiny electronic code (电子源码) on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details. You decide to listen to your shoes. “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?”A list of possible foods appear on the counter as the kitchen checks its food supplies.“Ready for your trip to space?” you ask your son and daughter. In 2005 onl y specially trained astronauts went into space——and very few of them. Today anyone can go to space for day trips or longer vacations. Your best friend even works in space. Handing your children three strawberries each, you add, “The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advances, vaccination shots(防疫针) are a thing of the past. Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines. With the berries in their mouths, the kids head for the front door.It’s time for you to go to work.

But in the US A, each year, students take part in a kind of competition called the Science Olympiad.It has a lot of different events. Students go there to show how much they know about the science of music, biology, chemistry and others. My best event is forestry (森林学). This time, I went to the Olympiad with my school’s team. We had worked hard, but this was the state competition. It would be hard to win.The Olympiad was out of town, so we got to ride on a bus and stay in a hotel for a night. The Olympiad was in three big rooms. When we got there, we set up our team’s “camp” off to one side. The big day had come at last! First, I went to watch the tower building compet ition. That’s when students build small towers and put heavy things on top of it. They hope they can hold them up. One of my schoolmates wasputting things on her tower. She was nervous, and in the end it was too heavy for her tower to hold it---it broke! I felt bad for her. After lunch, I helped some teammates with their events. One was geography, and the other was history. I don’t know much about those things, so I just watched my teammates do most of the work. At last, it was time for my favorite event---forestry. Another student was also in the forestry event. The rules were easy. We had to look at more than 40 different kinds of leaves and find out which plants they were from. We also had to answer some questions about the uses of each leaf. I knew almost all of the leaves and could answer most of the questions. I had spent more than a month studying on the Internet to get ready. At the end, it was time for the awards (颁奖), l was nervous, because the forestry awards were last. We won second place in the whole state! A nice man gave me a medal and smiled at me.I had a great time at the Science Olympiad. I can’t wait for next year!41. The writer felt _______ about the competition.A. nervousB. excitedC. sadD. bad42. We know that _______.A. you know a lot about biology if you’re good at forestryB. it’s the first time for the writer to be in the competitionC. the writer had to do some experiments in the competitionD. the state competition lasted several days43.

Personal(个人的) information will be locked into the card so that people won’t be able to use false identities.China’s plastic ID cards came into use 18 years ago, and a similar system(相似的系统) is used in many other countries. However, the information on a card is different from nation to nation. Most ID cards show the holder’s name, sex, date of birth and photo, as well as his or her number.Germany, France and Spain all use ID cards, but some nations don’t like the idea, such as the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia and Britain. They have no national ID cards. However, some of the countries have ID cards for special uses. For example, Australia and the USA use a driving license to identify people.ID cards are carried for many reasons.

That way, you can learn more about animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it makes it more fun for everyone.Have you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you’ll discover Earth someday. Don’t look down on new ideas. Everyone’s ideas are important. You should welcome them, because new ideas make life better for everyone.Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don’t let it happen to you. If you have to go home late, you should let your parentsknow.Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren’t for kids, so try to look at Web pages that are good for you. You can use the Web for fun or homework.

One January, I had to perform the duties at two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my community. Both had died “full of years”, as the Bible would say. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence(吊唁) calls on the two families on the same afternoon.At the first home, the son of the deceased(已故的)woman said to me, “If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.” At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, “If only I hadn’t insisted on my mother’s going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the change of climate, was more than she could take. It’s my fault that she’s dead.”When things don’t turn out as we would like them to, it is very possible to think that had we done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Priests know that anytime there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out badly, they believe that the opposite course-keeping Mother at home, delaying the operation-would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse? 36.What is said about the two deceased elderly women?A.They lived out a natural life.B.They died of extreme tiredness after the long plane ride.C.They didn’t get used to the change in weather.D.They died due to lack of care by family members.37.The author had to conduct the two wome n’s funerals probably because . A.he wanted to comfort the two familiesB.he was an official from the communityC.he had great sympathy for the deceasedD.he was priest of the local church38.People feel guilty for the deaths of their loved ones because .A.they couldn’t find a better way to express their grief(悲伤)B.they believe that they were responsibleC.they had ignored the natural course of eventsD.they didn’t know things often turn out in the opposite direction39.What will the author talk about in the next paragraph?A.Other examples of making things worse by blaming oneself.B.The elements involved in the readiness to feel guilty.C.How to avoid this kind of things.D.The comments on the experience.BOur math test started and I was sitting there and working away quite quickly.I looked around with 15 minutes left, because I had finished and was decking my test.l noticed something very special!Mr..Ward was staring right at one of the kids that seemed to be only halfway done With his Test.Every test we took, there was always one guy scrambling at the last minute to finish his test.He would turn the pages and you saw blank spot after blank spot.Sometimes I even saw entire pages that were left blank.Mr..Ward did not take his eyes off this kid.It seemed strange to me.For the rest of the test, Mr..Ward watched that kid as he struggled furiously(猛烈地), flipping papers back and forth and writing furiously and erasing even more furiously.He seemed to use his calculator a lot more than he needed.After the test was finished, Mr..Ward gave his end of the year speech, basically alone the Lines of good luck and good job.Then I saw him go to the kid he was watching and tell the kid to go into the hall.Mr..Ward walked out of the room and went into the hall silently.He closed the door and from that moment on, I heard about 4 minutes of Mr..Ward shouting at the kid.He got his test torn up and zero for the end of the year exam and also failed for the term and had to take summer school.That was the first and the last time that I had seen Mr..Ward ever yell like that.Obviously the ,guy had written his answers inside the sleeve(外壳) of the calculator and every time he was“using his calculator”he was really looking at the formulas(公式) and other information he had Written inside of the sleeve, which was all in vain because Mr..Ward spotted it a mile away.40.Form this passage we know that ______________.A.Mr..Ward disliked his studentsB.the student Mr..Ward was staring at wasn’t good at mathematics at allC.the student Mr..Ward was noticing wag working at his test quicklyD.the author was trying to help the kid out41.The underlined word “lines”in Paragraph 4 refers to ________.A.the math examsB.the summer schoolC.the math papersD.Mr..Ward’s speech at the egad of the school year42.The student used his calculator again and again because he__________A.intended to attract Mr. Ward’s attentionB.needed to calculateC.wanted to glanced at what he had hidden inside the sleeve of the calculatorD.felt too frightened to use it properly with Mr. Ward staring at him43.We can infer from this passage that _________.A.Mr. Ward was working as a math teacher for a long timeB.the student was asking the author for help when caught cheating h the examC.Mr. Ward regretted not having let the student pass the examD.the students were taking their final-term examCIt seems that the Englishmen just cannot live without sports of some kind.A famous French humorist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country you will see both children and grown-ups knockingA ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women Girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?Taking all amateur(业余)and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list.It is called soccer in the United States.The game originated(起源于)in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier though as an organized game, or “association football”,it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century. The next is rug by, which is called “footba11"in the United States.It is a kind of football played by two team of players than eleven.In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked.It is a pretty rough game.In summer, cricket is the most popular sport.In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game.Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.Tennis rates high on the list, too .It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world. Table tennis, or "Ping-Pong", surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or Japan.Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity.Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golfall attract a Lot of people.44.The man purpose of Paragraph 1 is to tell us that the English_______.A.are all sports loversB.behave like childrenC.like to kick a ball aroundD.can remain young all their lives45.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?

Slowing down your responses and becoming a better listener aids you in becoming a more peaceful person.It takes pressure from you.If you think about it, you’ll notice that it takes an extremely large amount of energy and is very stressful to be sitting at the edge of your seat trying to guess what the person in front of you( or on the telephone )is going to say so that you can fire back your response.But as you wait for the person you are communicating with to finish, as you simply listen more carefully to what is being said ,yo u’ll notice that the pressure you feel is off.You will immediately feel more relaxed, and so will the people you are talking to.They will feel safe in slowing down their own responses because they won’t feel in competition with you for “air time”!Not only will becoming a better listener make you a more patient person,it will also add to the quality of your relationships.Everyone loves to talk to someone who truly listens to what they are saying.52.According to the passage, an effective listener should_________.A.accept the speaker’s thought critically(批评地)B.respond to the speaker’s words slowlyC.wait for the chance to respond patientlyD.reply the speaker’s question patiently53.My wife’s words means that sometimes I ___________.A.overhear Other people's conversationsB.may enter a café for having lunchC.await patiently my chance to respondD.do not really listen to other’s statement54.When talking with others, you will feel relaxed by ___________.A.sitting at the edge of the seatB.slowing down your responsesC.guessing the speaker’s thoughtD.responding to the speaker quickly55.From the passage, we can infer that __________.A .the author was an effective listener in the pastB.a person who only wants to respond is not welcomeC.the author's wife must always be an effective listenerD.both sides in a talk can benefit from non-effective listening第二卷(共35分)第三部分:(共两节,满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

He was glad to think that he was an experienced driver, because he heard frequent complaints about the difficulties of passing the driving tests in these modern days. He was told that people tried unsuccessfully to pass the test five, seven, or even thirteen times. He heard of one man who failed the test, did no driving at all for a month, and then passed the next test without difficulty. One woman said that she failed several times in one part of the country. And so she went to another town and immediately passed. Faber was not sure whether to believe such stories or not. But he began to think that the results of the tests were frequently unreasonable.Although it did not affect him in the least, Faber grew angry about all this. He decided to take the test himself. He was an excellent driver; and if he failed, that would prove that his doubts about the examiners were correct. And then he would write to the newspapers to tell everyone what happened.About two months later the following letter appeared in one of the leading papers of England:“Dear sir,During the last twenty-seven years I have driven cars thousands of miles in thirteen different countries in all sorts of weather, and have never had an accident. I have never damaged anything belonging to anybody, and I have never seen the inside of a court of justice. I can take a motor-car engine to pieces and put it together again, and I have given driving lessons to men and women who have later passed the test. No policeman has ever said a sharp word to me. I am not a stupid person, and I have two university degrees.For some time, I have felt doubtful about the driving test held in this country, because their results often seem unreasonable. I therefore decided that the time had come to test the examiners themselves. If anyone can drive a car. I can. I therefore paid the pound and sent my application in.It is unnecessary to tell you that I did not mention my great experience, my unusual ability as a driver, or my wide and exact knowledge of cars.The day of the test came.I very much regret to inform you that I passed.Yours FaithfullyErnest Faber”56.Faber’s driving experience mad e him .A.surprised B.satisfied C.destroyed D.troubled57.It was said that the driving tests in different parts of the country were .A.not equally difficultB.getting more and more difficultC.intended to discourage women from drivingD.intended to discourage people from owning cars58.When Faber decided to take the test. .A.he knew that he could do it free of chargeB.he expected to get a driver’s licenseC.he wondered if he was an excellent driverD.he thought even he himself might fail the test59.The letter tells us that the driving test is .A.difficult B.unfair C.reasonable D.unbelievableB(参见主旨题练习讲义)CWhen you are advised to “get an education”if you want to raise your income,you are only told half the truth.What you should be told is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society,but not toomuch education that would prove an embarrassment(窘迫)to your society.Get a high school diploma (文凭), at least. Without that, you are occupationally dead.unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison and you can successfully drop out in grade school.Get a college degree,if possible.With a BA,you are on the launching pad.But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If y ou go for a master’s degree,make sure it’s an MBA,and only from a first-rate university. Beyond this, the famous law of diminishing returns (报酬递减规律性)begins to take effect.Do you know,for instance,that heavy truck drivers earn more a year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24,000,while the full professor managed to average just $23,930.A Ph. D is the highest degree you can get, but except in a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry, where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, you are facing a dark future. There are more Ph. Ds unemployed or underemployed in this country than in any other part of the world by far.If you become a doctor of Philosophy in English or History or Anthropology or Political Science or language or-worst of all-in Philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for out national demands.Thousands of Ph.Ds are selling shoes,driving cabs,waiting on tables and filling out fruitless applications month after month. And then maybe taking a job in some high school or backwater(死气沉沉的)college that pays much less than the janitor(门卫)earns.Income and education are closely related.Far enough,that is,to make you useful to the gross national product,but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.64.According to the writer,what the society expects of education is to turn out people who .A.will become loyal citizens to a nation.B.can always take good care of themselves.C.will not be a shame to society or their families.D.can meet the demands as a source of manpower.65.If you are as gifted as Bernard Shaw or Edison .A.you can get a high school diploma without difficulty.B.you can be professionally successful without a diploma.C.the least you should do is to get a diploma.D.you will be successful in grade school.66.Many Ph.Ds are out of work because .A.they are of little commercial value to the society.B.they prefer easy jobs with more money.C.there are fewer jobs in high schools.D.they are wrongly educated.67.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true?A.The higher your education level is,the more money you’ll earn.B.If you are too well-educated, you may make things difficult for the society.C.One must think carefully before going for a master’s degre e.D.Bernard Shaw didn’t finish high school, nor did Edison.D“ONLY A COKE WILL DO”“We don’t necessarily believe that new advertising,which might make consumers feel better about the Coke brand or better about the ads themselves,will actually result in consumers consuming more of the product,”Morgan Stanley’s Bill Pecoriello wrote in a research note the days after the investor(投资者)meeting.But Coke is optimistic it can regain its old magic,and is banking on a new slogan:“Welcome to the Coke side of life.”BREAKTHROUGH HIT?With PepsiCo about to surpass Coke as the beverage king on Wall Street-Pepsi’s market capitalization has soared in recent years to $ 97.9 billion, putting it less than a billion dollars behind its rival (对手)-the heat is on Coke. Lt’s set to launch a new marketing campaign in March, 2006. And having taken a quick look at Coke’s investor presentation o n Dec. 7 in New York, my sense is that Coke may be moving in the right direction.Given the continued shift by consumers away from soda-C oke’s stronghold-and into alternative beverages like juice, tea, and water, Coke badly needs a breakthrough hit. And given that shift away from soda, some analysts wonder whether even the catchiest new ads will be enough to put the fizz back into Coke.SA ME OLD, UPDATED.The new flavors (口味) of PowerAde sports drink will probably enable Coke to continue stealing market share from Pe psiCo’s Gatorade brand. And Coke is getting a little more creative with packaging, including new, aluminum bottles of Coke that will be sold in nightclubs, and an 8.4-ounce“100 calorie”version of its flagship Coke that will appeal to women who want fewer calories and will like the fact that the small can will fit in their purse. I doubt whether other new products will be successfhl, including a new coffee-flavored soda called Coke-Cola Blak that I tried. Think carbonated coffee. But I’m not sure if the product, which Coke is pitching as anafternoon pick-me-up for the 35-and-over set, is going to pull people away from their afternoon Frappucino fix. And my opinion is that Vault, an orange-flavored energy drink, will have just as much trouble unseating Mountain Dew among teens as did Coke’s last attempt, a product called Surge.If there is one concern I have about the fresh offerings Coke plans to launch this year,it appears that many of them are simply new brands, not new products.68.According to the passage, we can know that .A.Coke mainly depends on new products recentlyB.Nowadays Coke is comparatively less popularC.PepsiCo has taken the place of CokeD.Coke has few new brands69.The underlined word“soared”means .A.achieved B.dropped C.increased D.failed70.When the middle-aged people feel tired, what would they prefer to drink in order to continue their work?A.Vault B.Surge C.Coke-Cola Blak D.Frappucino71.What is the best title of the passage?A.Troubles in Coke Company.B.Varieties of New Products.C.The Importance of New Advertisements.D.The Relationship Between Coke and Pepsi.EGeorge Best used to be a .A.writer B.politicianC.British scientist D.football player73.According to the artice,whom was the literature award named after?A.Sergio Pitol B.Don QuixoteC.The Jury D.Miguel de Cervantes74.Most probably you can read these in a ?A.newspaper B.novelC.fairytale D.textbook75.Which of the following is true?A.Ellen Sirleaf became the first elected woman presidentB.Hwang Woo-suk has quit all the official positionsC.George Best passed away because of his hard workD.Sergio Pitol has won an award for English literature第II卷(共35分)第四部分:书面表达(共两节,满分35分)第一节情景作文(满分20分)三月十四日上行,你校高三学生参加了体育毕业会考,请你根据下列图示,写一篇英文日记,并简谈你的体会。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneThe fitness movement that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s centered around aerobic exercise (有氧操). Millions of individuals became engaged in a variety of aerobic activities, and literally thousands of health spas developed around the country to capitalize (获利) on this emerging interest in fitness, particularly aerobic dancing for females. A number of fitness spas existed prior to this aerobic fitness movement, even a national chain with spas in most major cities. However, their focus was not on aerobics, but rather than on weight- training programs designed to develop muscular mass, strength, and endurance in their primarily male enthusiasts. These fitness spas did not seem to be benefit financially from the aerobic fitness movement to better health, since medical opinion suggested that weight-training programs offered few, if any, health benefits. In recent years, however, weight training has again become increasingly popular for males and for females. Many current programs focus not on developing muscular strength and endurance but on aerobic fitness as well.Historically, most physical-fitness tests have usually included measures of muscular strength and endurance, not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performances in athletics. However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs designed primarily to improve muscular strength and endurance might also offer some health benefits as well. The American College of Sports Medicine now recommends that weight training be part of a total fitness program for healthy Americans. Increased participation in suchtraining is one of the specific physical activity and fitness objectives of Healthy People 2000: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives.31. The word “ spas” (Line 3, Para. 1) most probably refers to ____.A. sports activitiesB. places for physical exerciseC. recreation centersD. athletic training programs32. Early fitness spas were intended mainly for _____.A. the promotion of aerobic exerciseB. endurance and the muscular developmentC. the improvement of women’s figuresD. better performance in aerobic dancing33.What was the attitude of doctors towards weight training in health improvement?A. Positive.B. Indifferent.C. Negative.D. Cautious.34. People were given physical fitness tests in order to find out ____.A. how well they could do in athleticsB. what their health condition was likeC. what kind of fitness center was suitable for themD. whether they were fit for aerobic exercise35. Recent studies have suggested that weight training ____.A. has become an essential part of people’s lifeB. may well affect the health of the traineesC. will attract more people in the days to comeD. contributes to health improvement as wellPassage TwoHoney bees cannot live alone. Their body structure and instincts equip them for life in a colony of community, where they have a complex social organization and the various duties are divided among the individuals according to physical fitness and age. An individual worker bee cannot reproduce itself. While it may continue to live if forcibly isolated from its mates, it fails to care for itself adequately, and soon dies. Most insects have the ability to hibernate in winter, but the honeybee seem to have lost this. Since at low temperatures the bee will die, it must have the ability to make its own environment, so far as temperature is concerned. This makes a colony necessary to the bees in winter, so that they may collectively warm each other. Efficiency if not necessity, demands that the work of the colony be divided, and such a division of labor tends to enhance the reed to maintain the colony. The physical structure of the honeybee is further suited for the defense智力服务于中国,提高企业与个人整体竞争力第7页of the entire colony rather than for its own defense. The bee’s barbed sting is used only once and is made more effective by the fact that it is left behind in the victim. With the loss of the sting, however, the bee dies. This kind of defensive weapon is not of service to the individual , but to the community.36.According to the passage, bees are fitted for communal life by virtue of their________.A. flexibility and initiativeB. intelligence and sensitivityC. independence and enduranceD. instincts and form37. It can be inferred from the passage that at one time bees had the ability to _______.A. increase their activity in lower temperaturesB. leave cold climates during winterC. remain dormant through periods of cold weatherD. construct insulated hives38. The passage states that bees differ from most other communities of insects in their need to_______.A. reproduce in large numbersB. control the temperature where they liveC. divide the work of their coloniesD. have a complex defense system39. The honeybee’s sting is particularly effective because it ______.A. has many potential usesB. can kill several victims at onceC. is located in the rear of the bee’s bodyD. remains with the bee’s victim40. Which of the following is the most appropriate title for the passage?A. The Communal Life of BeesB. The Structure of the Bees.C. The Organization of Insect ColoniesD. The Life of Social InsectsPassage ThreeNavigation computers, now sold by most car makers cost $2,000 and up. No surprise, then, that they are most often found in luxury cars, like Lexus, BMW and Audi. But it is a developing technology — meaning prices should eventually drop— and the market does seem to be growing. Even at current prices, a navigation computer is impressive. It can guide you from point to point in智力服务于中国,提高企业与个人整体竞争力第8页most major cities with precise turn by turn direction — spoken by a clear human-sounding voice, and written on a screen in front of the driver.The computer works with an antenna that takes signals from no fewer than three of the 24 global positioning system (GPS) satellites. By measuring the time required for a signal to travel between the satellites and the antenna, the car’s location can be pinned down within 100 meters. The satellite signals, along with inputs on speed from a wheel-speed sensor and direction from a meter, determine the car’s position even as it moves. This information is combined with a map database. Streets, landmarks and points of interest are included.Most systems are basically identical. The differences come in hardware— the way the computer accepts the driver’s request for directions and the way it presents the driving instructions. On most systems, a driver enters a desired address, motorway junction or point of interest via a touch screen or disc. But the Lexus screen goes a step further: you can point to any spot on the map screen and get directions to it. BMW’s system offers a set of cross hairs( 瞄准器上的十字纹) that can be moved across the map (you have several choices of map scale) to pick a point you’d like to get to. Audi’s screen can be switched to TV reception.Even the voices that recite the directions can differ, with better systems like BMW’s and Lexus’s having a wider vocabulary. The instructions are available in French, German, Spanish, Dutch and Italian, as well as English. The driver can also choose parameters for determining the route: fastest, shortest or no freeways (高速公路),for example.41. We learn from the passage that navigation computers____.A. will greatly promote sales of automobilesB. may help solve potential traffic problemsC. are likely to be accepted by more driversD. will soon be viewed as a symbol of luxury42. With a navigation computer, a driver will easily find the best route to his destination ____.A. by inputting the exact addressB. by indicating the location of his carC. by checking his computer databaseD. by giving vocal orders to the computer43. Despite their varied designs, navigation computers used in cars____.A. are more or less the same priceB. provide directions in much the same wayC.work on more or less the same principlesD. receive instructions from the same satellites44. The navigation computer functions ____.A. by means of a direction finder and a speed detectorB. basically on satellite signals and a map database智力服务于中国,提高企业与个人整体竞争力第9页C. mainly through the reception of turn-by-turn directionD. by using a screen to display satellite signals45. The navigation systems in cars like Lexus, BMW and Audi are mentioned to show____.A.the immaturity of the new technologyB. the superiority of the global positioning systemC. the cause of price fluctuations in car equipmentD.the different ways of providing guidance to the driverPassage FourMost people think of lions as strictly African beasts, but only because they've been killed off almost everywhere else. Ten thousand years ago lions spanned vast sections of the globe. Now lions hold only a small fraction of their former habitat, and Asiatic lions, a subspecies that split from African lions perhaps 100,000 years ago, hang on to an almost impossibly small slice of their former territory.India is the proud steward of these 300 or so lions, which live primarily in a 560~square-mile sanctuary (保护区). It took me a year and a half to get a permit to explore the entire Gir Forest-and no time at all to see why these lions became symbols of royalty and greatness. A tiger will hide in the forest unseen, but a lion stands its ground, curious and unafraid-lionhearted. Though they told me in subtle ways when I got too close, Gir’s lions allowed me unique glimpses into their lives during my three months in the forest. It's odd to think that they are threatened by extinction; Gir has as many lions as it can hold-too many, in fact. With territory in short supply, lions move about near the boundary of the forest and even leave it altogether, often clashing with people. That's one reason India is creating a second sanctuary. There are other pressing reasons: outbreaks of disease or natural disasters. In 1994 a serious disease killed more than a third of Africa's Serengeti lions-a thousand animals-a fate that could easily happen to Gir's cats. These lions are especially vulnerable to disease because they descend from as few as a dozen individuals. "if you do a DNA test, Asiatic lions actually look like identical twins," says Stephen O'Brien, a geneticist ~ who has studied them. Yet the dangers are hidden, and you wouldn't suspect them by watching these lords of the forest. The lions display vitality, and no small measure of charm.Though the gentle intimacy of play vanishes when it's time to eat, meals in Gir are not necessarily frantic affairs. For a mother and her baby lion sharing a deer, or a young male eating an antelope (羚羊)there's no need to fight for a cut of the kill. The animals they hunt for food are generally smaller in Gir than those in Africa, and hunting groups tend to be smaller as well.46. In the first paragraph, the author tells us that Asiatic lions _______A. have killed off other lionsB. have descended from African lionsC. used to span vast sections of the globeD. have lost their habitat智力服务于中国,提高企业与个人整体竞争力第10页47. What impressed the author most when he went to watch the lions in the Gir Forest?A. Their friendliness.B. Their size.C. Their intimacy.D. Their vitality.48. What does the sentence "...meals in Gir are not necessarily frantic affairs" mean?A. The lions do not show intimacy among them any more.B. The lions may not need to fight for food.C. Food is not readily available in that region.D. Meals can be obtained only with great effort.49.The lions in the Gir Forest are especially vulnerable to disease because _______ .A. they have descended from a dozen or so ancestorsB. they are smaller than the African lionsC. they do not have enough to eatD. they are physically weaker than the African lions50. One of the reasons why India is creating a secondary sanctuary for the Asiatic lions is that________.A. the present sanctuary is not large enoughB. scientists want to do more research on themC. they have killed many peopleD. the forest is shrinking in sizePassage FiveEven before Historian Joseph Ellis became a best-selling author, he was famous for his vivid lectures. In his popular courses at Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts, he would often make classroom discussions lively by describing his own combat experience in Vietnam. But as Ellis's reputation grew~his books on the Founding Fathers have won both the prestigious National Book Award and the Pulitzer Frizethe history professor began to entertain local and national reporters with his memories of war. Last year, after The Boston Globe carried accounts of Ellis's expenence in the Vietnam war, someone who knew the truth about Ellis dropped a dime ~ Last week The Boston Globe revealed that Ellis, famous for explaining the nation's history, had some explaining to do about his own past."Even in the best of lives, mistakes are made," said a wretched Ellis. It turned out that while the distinguished historian had served in the Army, he'd spent his war years not in the jungles of Southeast Asia, but teaching history at West Point智力服务于中国,提高企业与个人整体竞争力第11页(西点军校) He'd also overstated his role in the antiwar movement and even his high-school athletic records. His admission shocked colleagues, fellow historians and students who wondered why someone so accomplished would beautify his past. But it seems that success and truthfulness don't always go hand in hand. Even among the distinguished achievers, security experts say, one in ten is deceiving-indulging in everything from empty boasting to more serious offenses such as plagiarism (剽窃), fictionalizing military records, making up false academic certificates or worse. And, oddly, prominent people who beautify the past often do so once they're famous, says Ernest Brod of Kroll Associates, which has conducted thousands of background checks. Says Brod: "It's not like they use these lies to climb the ladder."Then what makes them do it? Psychologists say some people succeed, at least in part, because they are uniquely adjusted to the expectations of others. And no matter how well-known, those people can be haunted by a sense of their own shortcomings. "From outside, these people look anything but fragile," says Dennis Shulman, a New York psychoanalyst. "But inside, they feel hollow, empty."51. Which of the following is true about Ellis?A. He is a famous professor of history at West Point.B. His book on the Vietnam war has won two important prizes.C. He has told both students and reporters about his own experience of war.D. He has written a best-seller for a newspaper -The Boston Globe.52. While Ellis served in the Army, he ______A. combated in VietnamB. taught at a military schoolC. exaggerated his part as a historianD. made mistakes in the antiwar movement53. What did Ellis lie about?A. His war experience in Vietnam.B. His athletic records in high school.C. His role in the antiwar movement.D. All of the above.54. What does "to climb the ladder" in the second paragraph mean?A. To become more successful.B. To inquire into one's background.C. To cover one's serious offenses.D. To go further in beautifying one's past.55. According to psychologists, successful people who lie about themselves _____智力服务于中国,提高企业与个人整体竞争力第12页学苑中心培训系列教材内部资料,翻版必究智力服务于中国,提高企业与个人整体竞争力 第13页A. take pride in their weaknessesB. feel weak in their heartsC. think nothing of othersD. look weak to othersPart IV Cloze Test (10 minutes, 15 points, 1 for each)Directions: In this part, there is a passage with fifteen blanks.
