One Friday afternoon he was riding along the track towards the Henderson farm. He was looking for a prize bull which had escaped from the Borrogee paddock. He reached the hills and saw at once that he could not go further.There had been a fire in the forest which had gone out. But the air was still full of smoke and fallen trees had blocked the track. Jack was just going to turn back when he saw something moving in the smoke. He waited. It was a girl on a horse, and she was riding towards him. “There’s a badly burnt man on the farm,”the girl shouted.“He saved my life. Please help me to save him.”The girl was Cathy Henderson. She had been on horseback for two hours. She had to jump over fallen trees that were still burning. Her pony had fallen with her twice. She was thirsty andalmost dead from want of sleep. But she rode back to the farm with Jack immediately.Joe Brook was unconscious when they reached him. They lifted him onto Jack’s horse. The ride back to Borrogee was terrible. Cathy was so tired that Jack had to tie her to her pony. The pony was tired too, but its courage was astonishing. It followed Jack right to Borrogee Hospital. Nobody saw them arrive because it was night.“I’ve never seen a horse like that pony,”Jack said. Cathy praised Jack Billabong, but she refused to say anything about the pony,“Joe will write about her in his story,”she said.But she did say one thing: “If Flame hadn’t returned to the farm that afternoon, Joe and I would have died.”11.Jack Billabong did not turn back because _________.[A]he hadn’t found the bull yet[B]he smelt a heavy smoke in the forest[C]he knew there was a burnt man there[D]he saw something moving towards him12.Why was the ride back to Borrogee terrible?[E]Because Joe was tired out.[F]Because the ride started late at night.[G]Because they didn’t have enough courage.[H]Because both Cathy and her pony were exhausted.13.Cathy refused to talk to reporters about the pony when she was in Borrogee Hospital because _________.[I]she didn’t know what to say[J]Jack asked her not to talk to them[K]she was too weak to say anything[L]Joe would write about it in his writing14.What does the word“Flame”in the last paragraph refer to?[A]Jack. [B] The pony. [C] Jack’s horse. [D] The fire.15.Which of the following is the best title of the story?[M]Rescue of Joe Brook[N]Courage of Jack Billabong[O]Love of a Young Girl[P]Heroism of a Lovely PonyPassage TwoThe faces of elderly, happily-married people sometimes resemble each other. Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years. Each couple provided four photographs —one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some testees were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group. Their judgments were no better than chance. But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the testees were quite successful with the most happily-married couples.Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it. He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones. “Another possible reason,”he says,“is the common experience of the couples.”There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.16.Dr. Aiken cut the background from the photos for the purpose of _________.[A]imitating the couples’ life[B]grouping the couples again[C]leaving no trace for the testees[D]giving the testees more chances17.The underlined sentence “Their judgments were no better than chance.”implies that the testees _________.[A]did a good job in making their choices[B]had difficulty in picking out the partners[C]had no chance to make the right judgments[D]did better with the first group than with the second18.The underlined word“imitate”(in Para. 2) has a similar meaning to _________.[A]copy [B] change [C] know [D] suffer19.From the passage we can draw the conclusion that _________.[A]couples who look alike can live longer[B]most partners have been proved to grow alike[C]the influence between partners can be quite strong[D]happily-married couples are often richer than others20.The main purpose of the passage is to _________.[A]explain why couples grow alike[B]tell how couples like each other[C]discuss the function of marriage[D]describe the life of happily married couplesPassage ThreeThe three biggest lies in America are: (1)“The check is in the mail”,(2)“Of course I’ll respect you in the morning”,and (3)“It was a computer error”.Of these three little white lies, the worst is the third. It’s the only one that can never be true. Today, if a bank statement cheats you out of $ 900 that way, you know what the clerk is sure to say,”It was a computer error.”Nonsense. The computer is reporting nothing more than what the clerk typed into it.The most annoying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery store shows that an item costs more than it actually does. If the innocent buyer points out the mistake, the checker, bagger, and manager all come together and offer the familiar explanation:“It was a compute error.”It wasn’t, of course that computerized cashier is really nothing more than an electric event. The eye reads the Universal Product Code —chat bar of black and white lines in a corner of the package —and then checks the code against a price list stored in memory. If the price list is right, you’ll be charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each day —that is, somebody sits at a keyboard and types in the prices. If the price they type in is too high, there are only two explanations: carelessness or dishonesty. But somehow“a computer error”is supposed to excuse everything.One reason we let people hide behind a computer is the common misperception that huge,modern computers are electric brain with“artificial intelligence”.At some point there might be a machine with intelligence but none exists today. The smartest computer on Earth right now is no more intelligent than your average pen. At this point in the development of computers, the only thing any machine can do is what a human has instructed it to do.21.Of the three lies, the one about computer is the worst because the computer itself_________.[A]says nonsense[B]cheats customers[C]cannot make the error[D]does not admit its error22.According to the author, a computerized cashier is really just _________.[A]a machine to count money[B]a machine to receive money[C]an instrument to print codes[D]an instrument to read codes23.Grocery store price lists are updated by _________.[A]a computer[B]a keyboard[C]an employee[D]an electric brain24.The last paragraph of the passage implies that computers _________.[A]are very clever[B]never make mistakes[C]have a good memory[D]are controlled by men25.Which of the following describes the main idea of the passage?[A]Computers are stupid and inefficient.[B]Computer errors are due to its dishonesty.[C]Computers help stores update the price list.[D]Computer errors are actually human errors.Passage FourI came across an old country guidebook the other day. It listed all the tradesmen in each village, and it was impressive to see the past variety of services which were available on one’s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside.Nowadays a traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the villagers or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has been a decline of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable.Our local grocer’s shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermarket. And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value.His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time.His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing. The richer customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced-figure, instantly obtains it for them.26.Nowadays the commercial services in the village are _________.[A]still very active[B]quickly declining[C]unable to flourish[D]personal to visitors27.The local grocer’s shop is expanding because _________.[A]the competition there is weak[B]it is a place for women to chat[C]it provides good personal service[D]the goods there are more valuable28.Which of the following is true about the supermarkets?[A]Prices there are much higher.[B]Customers often have to queue up.[C]Customers can order by telephone.[D]Their personal services are satisfactory.29.How do the village grocer’s assistants feel about giving extra service?[A]They don’t think it a trouble.[B]They don’t think it worthwhile.[C]They don’t consider it a good deal.[D]They don’t consider it a pleasant experience.30.One special feature of the village shop is that _________.[A]there is a very wide range of goods available[B]customers can order goods by word of mouth[C]customers have to order goods one hour earlier[D]there is a list of goods to be delivered to doorstepsPart Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure （20minutes 20points）Directions：There are 20 incomplete sentences in this part.

This was true for Howard Hughes. (76) He was one of the richest and most powerful men of his time. He bad everything: good look success, power, and a lot of money. But he didn’t have lave or friendship because he couldn’t buy them. All his life he used his money to control everything and everyone around him. In the end, he lost control of everything, even himself.Howard Hughes was born in 1905 in Houston, Texas. His father started the Hughes Tool Company. He was a workaholic（工作狂）and made a lot of money. He bought everything he wanted. He even gave money to schools so Howard could get into them. From his father, Howard learned to be a successful but merciless businessman. Hughes’s mother, Allene also had a big influence on his life. Howard was her only child. She protected him and gave him everything. Unfortunately Allene had mental problems. (77)She was afraid of germs and diseases. She was obsessed with Howard's health，and he became obsessed win it too.Allene died when Howard was 16 years old. Two years later his father died. Hughes inherited the Hughes Tool Company. Then he married Ella Rice. He and Ella moved to Los Angeles, California. It was there that Howard Hughes began to become a legend （传奇人物）. Hughes began to invest his money in movies. He became an important producer soon after he moved to California. He worked hard, but he also played hard. He became obsessed with power and control. When he couldn’t get something legally, he gave money politicians and businessmen so they would help him.

Now scientists are racing to ensure that the rest survive. Even if global warning were to right now, scientists predict that more than 90% of corals will die by 2050. If no major steps are taken to address the problem, the reefs may be headed for total extinction（灭绝）.(78) The planet’s health depends on the survival of coral reefs. They described as “the rainforests of the sea", because they provide shelter for a wide variety of sea life. In addition, the reefs serve as barriers that protect coastlines from the full force of powerful storms.Coral are used in medical research for cures to diseases. They are key to local economies as well, since the reefs attract tourists, the fishing industry, and other businesses, bringing in billions of dolllars.（79）Corals are particular sensitive to changes in temperature. A rise of just 1 to 2 degrees can force the corals to drive out the algae（水藻）. Then thecorals turn white in a process called “bleaching”. Corals can recover from short-term bleaching, but long-term bleaching can cause permanent damage. In 1998, when sea surface temperatures were the highest in recorded history, coral reefs around the world suffered the most severe bleaching. It is estimated that even under the best of conditions, many of these coral reefs will need decades to recover.Although reefs face other threats from pollution, industrial activities, and overfishing, it is global climate change that most concerns scientists. Scientists remain hopeful that it’s not too late to save the reefs, and some are moving ahead on experiments to accomplish that goal.6.

But nowhere in history have students banned（禁止）bottled water. Until now.The bottled water ban, which Parted on just a few campuses, has now spread nationwide to more than 20 universities. The colleges have cither completely banned the use of plastic bottles altogether, or some have taken a more limited approach with partial bans.Many people believe that producing and bottled water wastes money and harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U.S. arc among the best in the world. Water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access（获取）to filling stations are a better choice.An organization called Ban the Bottle raises awareness about the economic and environmental costs of using plastic bottles. The group claims that eight glasses of water a day costs each person 49 cents annually, while drinking from plastic containers costs $I,400 per year. Plastic bottles contain antimony—a chemical that in low doses causes depression, but in large doses can even lead to death.The controversy over bottled or tap is not limited to the students and college administrations. The makers of bottled water see the movement as a threat. (80) They argue that plastic bottles make UP a small portion of the nation’s total waste. It's unfair to single out （单独挑出）their product when so many other items are packaged in plastic containers. Plus, water is a healthy choice compared to some sodas and juices that arc also sold at school.,11.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A.Many universities ban or restrict the sale of bottled water.B.Many states ban or restrict the sale of bottled water.C.The bottled water industry is concerned about its decreasing sales.D.Many people are opposed to the bottled water ban.12.

You're sitti ng at the dinner table with a furry,four-legged friend scratchi ng at your feet. When you look dow n, those cute eyes are almost impossible to resist.What is it about a dog's gaze that makes it so charming?

Oxytoci n is a substa nee in the blood that en courages bonding. Levels of oxytoc in in crease, for example, when a mother feeds her newborn baby. According to Nagasawa's study, the same is true whe n we look deeply into the eyes of a dog.The results of this study can tell us a lot about the history of the bond between humans and dogs. It all started somewhere tens of thousands of years ago. Scientists believe that wolves used to follow humans who were hunting large animals. The wolves would eat the food left beh ind by the huma ns.Huma ns realized that they could use the wolves to help with the hunt, and even tually both species bega n to work together toward survival.Over time, the wolves that in teracted with the huma ns bega n to cha nge. They became more loyal to their human partners. The wolves and humans started to dependon each other and bond with each other. These cha nges are what caused some of the wolves to turn into what we nowknow as dogs, a new specie^ evolved to better survive in their en viro nment.This process depe nded a great deal on the bond huma ns formed with them. And accord ing to Nagasawa's study, this bond was formed with the help of oxytoc in, the cuddle chemical.11. What do we know about oxytoci n?A. It regulates blood flow.B. It promotes bonding.C.
