But that is not the case. In many ways the Greeks and the Romans could not have been more diferent.The Greeks were tmuly democratic , often without a single leader but instad govemed by a group of men chosen by the people. The Romans were semi-democratic. They had a governing Senate , but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders. But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic. Theirbuildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples,columns , and decorative forms. The Romans, on the other hand , were moreengineers than artists. They concentrated their efforts on urban planning , well-functioning water pipes, and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar. Both peoples ate very well indeed: lots of fish, fresh vegetables and fruits, healthy meals ,holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.In fact, it would probably be fair to say that they both loved lfe in their warm, sea-oriented climates, and they both lived a full life.40.

S. Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide 20 to 40 pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases. The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed toAmerican soldiers in Europe. Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers. By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home, the American candy bar business was assured. " Why? Because the returming soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same. As a result, from that time on and through the 1920' s, candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States, and as many as 40 ,000 different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston, and New York. The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar , com syrup, and milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48. Why did M. S. Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?——[单选题]A He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.B He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become popular.C There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.D He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at the fair.正确答案:B49、Which event brought the booming of American candy bar business?——[单选题]A The adding of new materials.B The demand in the army during WWI.C The purchase of new machines.D The appearance of smaller candy bars.正确答案:B50、What does the underlined word“seat" in the last paragraph most probably mean?——[单选题]A FocusB PositionC ChairD Center正确答案:D51、What is this passage mainly about?——[单选题]A A World Fair held in Chicago in 1893.B The popularity of the American candy bar industry.C The candy bar industry during World Ward ID The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.正确答案:B52、 Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America ’s much-beloved authors ,creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and a dults alike, such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Prince and The Pauper , and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Twain passed away in 1910, leaving behind a treasure of great literature. But now , 100 years after his death, he' ll have a brand new book on the shelves: a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb: it was his wish that publishers wait until 100 years afer his death to publish his memoirs (自传), which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than 5 ,000 pages, and likely won' t be all sunshine and roses. It seems that Twain habored some biternes against former gnfiends and ex fiends. He also writes negatively about plitins of his day, such as Teddy Roosevlt.It' s likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn' t want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sectiois of the memoirs have been periously published ,the autobiography has never been avilable in full, and should provide great insights into the man behind the Classic books. The first volume of the set will be available in November, and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley.“There are so many bogaphies of Twain, and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography, ”edior Robert Hirst told The Independent.“ But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote. By pubising Twain's book in full we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was."52. According to Paragraph 1, which of the following statements is TRUE of Mark Twain?——[单选题]A He left behind lots of moneyB His works were written for children.C His works are full of adventures.D He is famous for his great works.正确答案:D53、What can we learn about Mark Twain' s autobiography from the passage?——[单选题]A It has been published against Twain’s will.B It shows Twain’s respect for politicians.C It will be published in full.D It has been recently finished.正确答案:C54、What does the underlined word“trilogy" i n. Paragraph 4 mean?——[单选题]A A work in three volumes.B An imaginative work.C A collection of stories.D Memoirs of famous people.正确答案:A55、What is the purpose of publishing Twain’s autobiography?——[单选题]A To supplement other biographies.B To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C To introduce Mark Twain' s works.D To expose new discoveries about Mark Twain.正确答案:B56、V.

It was a cheap self-service place with long tables to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place and went to get a cup of coffee.When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next seat. It was one of those wild-looking boys, with dark glasses and old clothes, and his hair was colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did surprise me was that he‟d started to eat my chocolate!Naturally, I was rather uneasy about him, but I didn‟t want to make more trouble. I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me closely. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate.

It was a large, old wooden house----the sort that burn beautifully-----and my room was on the floor. I jumped out of the bed, opened the door and stepped out into the passage. It was full of thick smoke.I began to run, but as I was still only half-awake, instead of going towards the stairs I went in the opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see flames all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an open door and ran into a room to get to the window. But before I could reach it, one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes, and I picked it up to protect my face from the smoke and heat. Just then the floor gave way under me and I crashed to the floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me.I saw a flaming doorway in front, put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned me terribly, but I got through. As I reached the cold air out side, my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry.I nearly dropped it in my surprise. Then I saw a crowd gathered in the street. A woman in a nightdress and a borrowed man‟s coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly.“My baby! My baby!” she cried. The crowd cheered wide ly as she took the smoke-blackened bundle out of my arms. I had some difficulty in recognizing her. She was the Mayor‟s wife, and I have saved her baby.

It was still too early for me to have my evening meal, so I walked along the seafront (滨海马路) for about an hour until I began to feel hungry. By that time I was not far from a favorite restaurant of mine, where I often went to eat two or three times a week. I knew the owner well and frequently complimented (赞美, 恭维) him on hisexcellent cooking.I went into the restaurant, which was already crowded, and ordered my meal. While I was waiting for the soup to arrive, I looked around to see if I knew anyone in the restaurant. It was then that I noticed that a man sitting at a corner table near the door kept glancing in my direction, as if he knew me, I certainly did not know him, for I never forgot a face. The man had a newspaper open in front of him, which he was pretending to read, though all the while I could see that he was keeping an eye on me. When the waiter brought my soup, the man was clearly puzzled by the familiar way in which the waiter and I addressed each other. He became even more puzzled as time went on and it grew more and more obvious that I was well known in the restaurant. Eventually he got up and went into the kitchen. After a few minutes he came out again, paid his bill and left without another glance in my direction.When I had finished and was about to pay my bill, I called the owner of the restaurant over and asked him what the man had wanted. The owner was a little embarrassed by my question and at first did not want to tell me. I insisted. “Well,” he said, “that man was a detective.” “Really?” I said, considerably surprised. “He followed you here because he thought you were a man he was looking for,” the owner of the restaurant said. “When he came into the kitchen, he showed me a photograph of the wanted man. He certainly looked like you! Of course, since we know you here, I was able to convince him that he had made a mistake.” “It‟s lucky I came to a restaurant where I am known,” I said, “otherwise I might have been arrested!”91.When the author got to his favorite restaurant, it was ___________ .A. already nine o‟clockB. eight o‟clock on the do tC. about two minutes past eightD. slightly later than eight o‟clock92.The man sitting at the corner table near the door kept glancing in the direction of the author because he was __________________ .A. interested in the personality of the authorB. making a study of the authorC. looking up and down the authorD. keeping a lookout over the author93.The author was followed by the detective probably because he ___________ .A. took after a suspectB. was similar to a criminal in personalityC. was an accompliceD. looked like a murderer94.The detective had a newspaper open in front of him in order to ____________ .A. read it in detailB. cover up what he was really doing thereC. have it recheckedD. wait for his food95.According to the text, if the author had been a stranger in the restaurant, he would have been ____________________.A. taken to courtB. followedC. capturedD. sentenced to a few years‟ imprisonmentPassage DAt Harton College---an English boarding school for boys---there are many rules. Fifteen-year-old Bob Sanders often breaks these rules.The boys can go into town in the afternoon after classes. But they must return to the school at six o‟clock. One afternoon B ob walked to the town. He looked at the shops and then went to the cinema. After the film he looked at his watch. It was after eight o‟clock. He was a little worried.He walked back to Harton College as fast as possible.When he arrived, he ran quickly to the main entrance. It was locked. He looked up at the window of his dormitory. It was on the third floor. The window was open. But it was quite dark and he went round the school building to another door. That one was locked too. He couldn‟t climb up the wall very easily. Then he saw another open window on the ground floor. It was the window of the headmaster‟s study.He looked into the room-----no one was there. Bob quickly climbed on to the window sill (窗台) and jumped into the room. Just then he heard a noise. Then some one turned on a light in the corridor. Bob looked around and then hid under the sofa. One minute later, Mr. Mannering, the headmaster, came in. He turned on the light on his desk, and sat down on the sofa. Then he opened a book and began to read.Bob lay under the sofa as quietly as possible. He could not move. The floor was cold and uncomfortable. He looked at the headmaster‟s shoes and socks for an hour.“Why doesn‟t he get up and go to bed?” he thought.Finally, the headmaster closed his book and stood up. He put the book on a shelf and walked towards the door.“Thank heavens, he didn‟t find me under the sofa!” thought Bob.Then Mr. Mannering stopped and spoke towards the sofa. “Would you turn off the light when you leave?” he said and left the study.96.According to the passage, it is required that students of Harton College _________ .A. come back to the college at six o‟clock if they go to town after classesB. may stay out until midnight if they likeC. should leave school when class is overD. may do whatever they like97.When Bob realized it was too late to return to Harton College as required, it was already ___________ .A. 8:00B. 9:00C. later than 8:00D. midnight98.Bob stole into the courtyard of his college by means of ________ .A. the main entranceB. going around the school building to another doorC. jumping over the wallD. climbing into the window of his headmaster‟s study99.Bob hid himself under the sofa probably because he was afraid of ______________ .A. being punished for his theftB. being found to have returned lateC. being dismissed for his wrongdoingD. being capture alive on the spot100.In the light of what his headmaster said towards the sofa, it can be safely concluded that the headmaster had already ________________ .A. excused BobB. forgiven BobC. found Bob hiding under the sofaD. punished BobV.

The legal limit is.08.Sergeant J.Litchie said Dennison also had been charged with a DUI in January when she crashed at the same spot and registered a blood alcohol level of.380.If found guilty of the second offense,she faces up to10years in prison and fines in excess of$2,000.A telephone message the Associated Press left at a listing for Dennison in Truckee on Tuesday was not immediately returned. 36.Who is the author of the passage?A.A passenger.B A policeman.C.A judge.D.A journalist.37.Why couldn't the woman stand and walk?A.She had lost too much blood.B.She was scared.C She drank too much.D.She had a sudden stomachache.38.Why could the woman be Imprisoned for10years?A.She was caught DUI twice.B.She had her car crashed.C.She refused to take a blood test.D.She drove without a driving license.39.What does the word"nabbed"in the title mean?A.Arrested.B.Attacked.C.Charged.D.Punished.Passage TwoThere were many different cultures in the ancient world,butthe two that had the most influence on European and American civilizations were the Greek and the Roman.Often these two cultures are lumped together in our minds,as if they were really exactly alike.But that is not the case.In many ways the Greeks and the Romans could not have been more different.The Greeks were truly democratic,often without a single leader but instead governed by a group of men chosen by the people.The Romans were semi-democratic.They had a governing Senate,but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders.But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic.Their buildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples,columns,and decorative forms.The Romans,on the other hand,were more engineers than artists.They concentrated their efforts on urban planning,well-functioning water pipes,and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar.Both peoples ate very well indeed:lots of fish,fresh vegetables and fruits,healthy meals,holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.In fact,it would probably be fair to say that they both loved lifein their warm,sea-oriented climates,and they both lived a full life.40.What is the first paragraph about?A.The Greek and the Roman were similar.B People misunderstood European civilization.C.Greek civilization was quite different from Roman civilization.D.European civilization influenced American civilization greatly.41.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The Romans had more political awareness.B.The Romans had less political freedom and democracy.C.The Romans had more freedom to choose their leader.D.The Romans had fewer people elected into the government.42.What were the Greeks famous for?A.The overall planning of a city or a town.B.The artistic decoration of the buildings.C.The practical functions of the buildings.D.The system of water supply and transportation.3.How are the two cultures alike?A.Both loved the sea.B.Both lived long lives.C.Both loved cooking.D Both enjoyed talking over meals.Passage ThreeAs recently as three decades ago,many Americans believed that using credit was an unwise and dangerous way to pay for what they bought.Some even thought that owing money to a store or a thing to be credit company was something to be ashamed of.Good citizens,they believed,always bought what they wanted with real money and they paid the full price immediately.Today,however,all that has changed.Credit,as some observers have noted,has become a way of life in the United States. More and more Americans now are depending on those small pieces of plastic,credit cards,to pay for large purchases such as televisions,record players or furniture.Many people today would consider it unusual not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant diner,a hotel room or an airline trip.And there are some situations in which Americans must have credit cards.If they want the temporary use of a car,for example,they first must give the car rental company the number of their credit card.That number is considered a guarantee that they will return the car and pay for using it.Credit cards otter two major services to Americans.First of all, they are easier and safer to carry than large amounts of money. Second,they permit people to borrow,to have the immediatepleasure of owning something,even if they do not have enough money to pay for it at the time.With credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month instead of when they buy them.And when the time does come to pay,most credit cards offer people a choice.They can pay all of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between5and10percent of what they owe.44.What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadays according to the passage?A.They consider it valuable.B.They regard it as a shame.C.They think it dangerous.D.They find it quite convenient.45.Why does the car rental company ask for the credit card number?A.To prevent the overuse of the car.B.To make sure that the car won't be damaged.C.To make sure the user return the car and pay for using it.D.To ensure that the car is safely and timely returned46.What advantage can credit card holders have?A.They can choose not to pay for their purchasesB.They can easily borrow money at a lower interestC.They can own something before they actually pay for it.D.They can pay only a small amount of what they owe.47.What is the best tittle for the passage?A.Credit--a Way of Life in AmericaB.Credit Services in America.C.Convenience of Living in AmericaD.History of Credit Cards in AmericaPassage FourAt the1893Columbian Exposition,a World Fair held in Chicago, chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displayed.It caught the eye of M.S.Hershey,who saw the potential for chocolate.He installed chocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster,and produced his first chocolate bars in1894.Other Americans began mixing in other materials to make up new candy bars throughout the end of the1890's and the early 1900's.But it was World War I that really brought attention to the candy bar.The U.S.Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide20to40pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases.The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed to American soldiers in Europe.Eventually the task of making smaller pieces wasturned back to the manufacturers.By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home,the American candy bar business was assured.Why?Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same.As a result.from that time on and through the1920’s,candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States,and as many as 40,000different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston,and New York.The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar,corn syrup,and milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48.Why did M.S.Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?A.He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.B.He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become popular.C.There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.D.He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at the fair.49.Which event brought the booming of American candy bar business?A.The adding of new materialsB.The demand in the army during WWIC The purchase of new machinesD.The appearance of smaller candy bars50.What does the underlined word"seat"in the last paragraph most probably mean?A.FocusB.PositionC.ChairD.Center51.What is this passage mainly about?A.A World Fair held in Chicago in1893.B.The popularity of the American candy bar industry.C.The candy bar industry during World War I.D.The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America's much-beloved authors, creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and adults alike,such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,The Prince and The Pauper,and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Twain passed away in 1910,leaving behind a treasure of great literature.But now,100 years after his death,he'll have a brand-new book on the shelves:a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb:it was his wish that publishers wait until100years after his death to publish his memoirs(自传),which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than5,000pages,and likely won't be all sunshine and roses.It seems that Twain harbored some bitterness against former girlfriends and ex-friends.He also writes negatively about politicians of his day,such as Teddy Roosevelt.It,s likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously published,the autobiography has never been available in full,and should provide great insights into the man behind he classic books.The first volume of the set will be available in November,and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley.There are so many biographies of Twain,and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography,editor Robert Hirst told The Independent."But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote.By publishing wain's book in full,we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sortof a man he was.”52.According to Paragraph1,which of the following statements is TRUE of Mark Twain?A.He left behind lots of money.B.His works were written for children.C.His works are full of adventures.D.He is famous for his great works.53.What can we learn about Mark Twain's autobiography from the passage?A.It has been published against Twain's will.B.It shows Twain's respect for politicians.C.It will be published in full.D.It has been recently finished.54.What does the underlined word"trilogy"in Paragraph4 mean?A.A work in three volumes.B An imaginative work.C.A collection of stories.D.Memoirs of famous people.55.What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?A.To supplement other biographies.B.To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C.To introduce Mark Twain's works.D.To expose new discoveries about Mark Twain.V.Daily Conversation(15points) Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue byblackening the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet.A.When shall we set offB.What is the timeC.have a wonderful timeD.start packingE.be great funF.What could I getG.What should I takeH.where toMary:How do you like the idea of having a picnic this Saturday?

Sometimes,the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class.When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics,remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying.You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends—you are ina slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent,waiting to hear what you have to say.You must speak up so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout of appearing to force yourself.Remember,too,that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you.The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation.You must take special care that you can be heard.11.When you speak to the class,you should speak________.A)as loudly as possibleB)in a low

him shade;and they help to prevent droughts(干旱)and floods.Unfortunately,in many parts of the world,man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important.In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees,he has cut them down in large numbers.Two thousand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships,with which to gain itself an empire.It gained the empire but,without its trees,its soil became bare and poor.When the empire fell to pieces,the country found itself faced by flood and starvation.Even though a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees,it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this.They cult down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees.So,unless the government has a good system of control,or can educate the people, the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees.The results are even more serious:for where there are trees,their roots break the soil up,allowing the rain to sink in and also bind the soil.This prevents the soil from being washed away.But where there are no trees,the rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface,and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow.When all the topsoil is gone,nothing remains but worthless desert.16.Trees are useful to man mainly in three ways,the most important of which is that they can______.A)make him draw quick profit from themB)keep him from the hot sunshineC)enable him to build warshipsD)protect him from droughts and
