When he was a young boy, his greatest passion was in football. He played it whenever he had the chance. Sometimes he would go and watch a game with his friends. When David Beckham was 12 years old, he won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skills award. This was an important step forward for this young boy, and it led him to go for a visit to a football training camp in Spain. As a boy he played for schools of Essex and also for his county team.In 1991, he became a trainee with Manchester United. This meant that he could practice football as much as he wanted to and play for the highly successful Manchester United Youth Cup team and Under-21 team. In April, 1995 he played his first football league game against Leeds United. During i995 and 1996, David became a regular member of the team and Manchester United won in both football seasons, with David scoring many goals.His goals made him well-known. In the first game of the 1996-1997 season, he scored an surprising goal from beyond the halfway line. Beckham became famous overnight. He continued to score amazing goals, especially from free-kicks. The speed of one of his shots was timed at 157 kph. He also had the ability to make the ball go from left to right, or right to left, whenever he chose. Goalkeepers were never sure where the ball was going, and it regularly ended up in the goal.46.

David Beckham had a great passion for football.B. David Beckham would go and watch a game with his friendsC. David Beckham won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skills award.D.

B4, we used 2 go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3:-@ kids FTF ILNY, its gr8.Can yo u understand this sentence? If you can’t, don’t feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of computerized communication found on Internet or cellphones. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the “translation” of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to f ace. I love New York; it’s great.School teachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming the English language. Increasing spelling mistakes can be seen in students’ writing. They fear the language could become corrupted.Yet linguists (语言学家) believe Netspeak is more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak creates a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. “People get better at writing by writing,”he says, “Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents.”Linguist James Milroy says, for centuries it is believed that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today’s teenagers become tomorrows parents, they will think this way too. He argues that languages do not become “cor r upted”; they simply change to meet the new n eeds.However, it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, “I can understand Netspeak worries teachers, Students should be aware that text messaging is for fun, but learning to write proper English is a must for their future.”51. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?A. To give an example of a foreign language.B. To show an example of creative methods.C. To express worries about using Netspeak.D. To lead in the topic of Netspeak.52. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. David Crystal thinks Netspeak helps develop the habit of writing.B. Geoffrey Nunberg believes Netspeakers can write Standard English.C. James Milroy says that language is getting worse than before.D. Cynthia McVey points out teenagers can deal with Netspeak properly.53. The expression “bet your bottom dollar” in Paragraph 5 means __________.A. be pretty sureB. be greatly surprisedC. think it a pityD. find it interesting54. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?A. Netspeak: A Widely-Used Language on InternetB. Is Netspeak Harming the English Language?C. Is Netspeak Helpful in Language Learning?D. NetspeakK: Advantages and Disadvantages55. Where can you probably see this passage?A. In an encyclopeadia.B. In a fashion magazine.C. On a science blog.D. In a story book.(C)There is a very simple way of measuring the height of a water tower, which we cannot measure by climbing.Suppose, for example, that we wish to find out the height of the water tower, AB, in a factory, we first of all go to where the water tower is standing and measure a distance of, say, 90 feet from it, in a straight line, marking the spot that is 90 feet from the water. tower. Then we take a stick, DC, and stand it in the ground at the spot we have just marked.Let us suppose that the stick we are using is 4 feet in height. We now walk farther away from the water tower in the same straight line as when we measured off the distance of 90 feet. We go from the water tower until we come to a point E, where, with our head on the ground, we see the top of the stick and the top of the water tower in the straight line that is, the top of the stick just over the highest part of the water tower.We now have two triangles (三角形) and the proportion (比例) of the side CD to the side CE, in the smaller triangle CDE, is exactly the same as the proportion of the side BA to the side BE, in the large triangle BAE. It’s clear from this that every schoolboy or schoolgirl can work out the height of the water tower.Suppose that the line CE is 5 feet. We know that the stick is 4 feet high and the length BE is 95 feet. From these measurements we have the simple proportion sum: 5 is to 4 as 95 is to AB. We multiply 95 by 4, making 380, and divided by 5. Then we : can get the height of the water tower. The height of any other building can, of course, be easily measured by using the same way.56. The underlined word feet refers to __________.A. weightB. footC. lengthD. ruler57. The proportion of the side CD to the side CE is __________ the proportion of the side BA to the side BE.A. bigger thanB. equal toC. similar toD. smaller than58. The triangle CDE must be __________.A. below the triangle BAEB. out of the triangle BAEC. in the triangle BAED. over the triangle BAE59. According to the passage, which of the following proportion sums is correct?A. BA is to four as five is to ninety-fiveB. four is to five as BA is to ninetyC. five is to ninety-five as BA is to fourD. BA is to ninety-five as four is to five60. The height of the water tower is __________.A. 45 feetB. 76 feetC. 90 feetD. 180 feet六、阅读填空(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分)根据短文内容，从A-F中选择恰当的句子填入短文空白处，使上下文连贯，其中一项为多余选项。

Polite.BEmma Watson, who played Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies, seems to have it all. She is one of the most famous and successful actress for her age in history.Emma starred in eight Harry Potter movies. She acted in the first one when she was just 9 years old. She did not have much acting experience before getting the role. She says she has other interests besides acting. “I love to perform, but I love to do a lot of things. I just go with the flow.”She turned 26 this year and she has got $10.5 million from the films.Although she is rich and famous, Emma says she does not act for money. She says she will not leave school to act full-time. “People can’t understand why I don’t want to, but school life keeps me in touch with my friends. It keeps me in touch with reality (现实),” she said.Like Hermione, Emma was a model student in her high school in England. In most subjects she got As.Emma filmed the sixth film in 2009, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. In 2010, she began the seventh and final film in the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Maybe Hermione will not end up with Harry, but at least we will still be able to see them together at Hogwarts school.46. Emma is _________.A.

Emma filmed the sixth Harry Potter film in 2009.50. The passage mainly tells us _________.A. how Emma became a successful actressB. that Emma has many hobbiesC. why Emma doesn’t want to leave schoolD. some information about EmmaCIt’s there, but it has no weig ht, no colour, and you can’t smell it. You can’t see it, but it’s working everywhere in our modern world. Don’t try to touch it! It’s dangerous. It has always existed (存在), but humans learned about it only 500 years ago.What is it? Electricity. It’s powerful and mysterious. Thanks to electricity, you can flick a switch (开关) and have light. Watched a good TV show lately? You couldn’t do that without electricity. We cook our food, heat our homes and run our computers using electricity. But what is it, really?Here is a simple description. Everything in the world is made of atoms (原子). Atoms are small. You can fit millions of them on the head of a pin. In every atom, there are electrons (电子), protons (质子) and neutrons (中子). In some atoms, it is possible to move electrons easily from one atom to another. As the electrons move, a current (电流) is created. This is electricity.Don’t worry if you don’ understand it fully. Just remember that electricity is the resu lt of the movement of electrons. As the electrons move, they create a strong electric charge.There are many ways to generate electricity. A machine called a generator spins (旋转) rapidly. Water and wind can make a generator spin. As the generator spins, the electrons begin to move. As they move, they create an electric current. Power lines (电线) are built from generators to carry this current to places where people can use it. Along your street, power lines bring electricity right to your door. A wire runs into your house. More wires inside your house are attached to the plugs. Plug in your lamp, the electricity lights up the bulb, and you have light!It takes a lot of energy to make electricity. Oil is one of the main fuels (燃料) used to power electric generators. Another common fuel is coal. Our planet is running out of these resources, and using them creates a lot of pollution.In the future, most electricity will be produced using the sun and wind. But for now, be careful about how much electricity you use. Don’t forget to tur n off the lights when you leave a room. Every little bit helps.51. People can NOT use electricity to __________.A. cook our foodB. flick a switchC. heat our homesD. run our computers52. The writer mentions atoms in the third paragraph to __________.A. show the relationship between electricity and atomsB. explain what the electricity isC. tell us everything in the world is made of atomsD. describe how the electrons move53. The underlined word “generate” in Paragraph 5 probably means __________.A. moveB. understandC. produceD. use54. According to the passage, the writer probably agrees __________.A. it’s very easy to make electricityB. oil and coal are green resourcesC. most electricity is produced by sun and wind nowD. everyone should do his best to save electricity55. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Electricity a natural forceB. How electricity helps usC. The importance of electricityD.

There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrib le.”One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean! Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings? Since then, when I wanted to judge (判断) someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my dirty window?” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.56. What’s the relationship between the woman and the author?A. NeighborsB. FriendsC. StrangersD. workmates57. When the author couldn’t see the woman through the window, __________.A. he worried about herB. he was a little disappointedC. he thought she should have cleaned itD. he wanted to help her clean it58.

I began to understand itB. it cheered me upC. I knew it grew lightD. it began to get dark60. What does the author mean to tell us?A. One shouldn’t criticize others very often.B. One should often make his windows clean.C. One must judge himself before he judges others.D. One mustn’t judge a person through his dirty window.BA new study of winners of Nobel Prizes finds that although people of any age can be creative, there are two highest periods of creativity. One is for some people at their early age and the other comes later in their life.“Many people believe that creativity happens only to young people, but it really depends on what kind of creativity you are talking about, the conceptual innovators (观念创新者) or the experimental innovators (实验创新者)”, according to Weinberg and David Galenson.The conceptual innovators always think outside the box. They usually think more differently and widely than most people and come up with new ideas suddenly. They get their creativity at an early age. However, experimental innovators always enrich their knowledge through their working experience. Try for a long time, make mistakes, and then start in a new way. In the end, they produce their new id eas. In this study, the early period was found in people’s mid-20s and the latter in their mid-50s. For example, the young Nobel Prize winners are conceptual innovators.Conceptual innovators come up with an idea, and then do tests to prove the idea. Experimental innovators collect and study the information to make findings, so their papers often include more facts about a special area, such as places, time and periods.“Your creative success arrives early or late depending on whether you have a conceptual or experimental style now” said Weinberg.61. According to the study, who is creativity for?A. Only young people.B. Only old people.C. Only middle-aged people.D. People of all ages.62. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Experimental innovators usually get their creativity at an early age.B. Conceptual innovators think more differently than most people.C. A 56-year-old person must be a conceptual innovator.D. The thoughts of experimental innovators are better than most people’s.63. What does the underlined word “their” refer to according to the passage?A. Tests’.B. Findings’.C. Experimental innovators’.D. Conceptual innovators.64. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Experimental innovators always come up with new ideas quickly.B. Conceptual innovators are better than the experimental innovators.C. An experimental innovator needs to do tests after thinking of an idea.D. A conceptual innovator probably gets his creativity at the age of 25.65. What’s the main ide a of this passage?A. The two kinds of creativity of people.B. Who these creative people are.C. How to become a conceptual innovator.D. When people can become an experimental innovator.CA computer program that could help catch and ever translates from aliens in outer space has been started by a British scientist.If aliens are discovered one day, scientists fear their language may make it possible to understand them. But John Elliott of Leeds Metropolitan University in Britain has come up with a progr am that can figure out the structure of their language. He thinks that’s the first step in understanding what they are saying.Dr. Elliott’s program would compare an alien language to a database (数据库) of 60 different languages in the world to look for a similar structure. He believes that even an alien language will have its own structure. Language has to be structured in a certain way, or it will be harder to use, he told New Scientist magazine.Research had shown that it is possible to know if a signal carries a language rather than a picture or music. Dr. Elliott has gone a step further by finding a way to pick out what might be words and sentences. Because languages have different word orders, Dr. Elliott has set up a library of the sentence structures of 60 human languages.If a message is received from outer space, it could be compared against this database. Scientist would then be able to see if it’s similar to any human language, or a mix of the language.However, Dr. Elliot also said that in order to translate what the aliens are actually saying, it may still be necessary to have a code book.66. Why did Dr. Elliott come up with the program?A. To learn more about outer space.B. To develop a new language.C. To help translate the messages for aliens.D. To compare an alien language to human languages.67. According to Dr. Elli ott, what’s the first step of understanding an alien language?A. Coming up with a program.B. Knowing a structure.C. Understanding aliens.D. Discovering aliens.68. How does the program work when it receives a message from aliens?A. Mix the message with 60 human languages.B. Translate the message and send it to the database.C. Pick out the sentence structure and translate it.D. Compare the message to the database.69. What development has Dr. Elliott made in this research?A. Knowing if a signal carries a language.B. Knowing the structure of an alien language.C. Knowing how different word orders that languages have.D. Knowing how to pick out what might be words or sentences.70. What can we infer from the story?A. Not all languages have their own structure.B. The structure of alien languages is similar to that of human languages.C. To translate alien languages, there is much work to do.D. Alien languages are signals carrying pictures and music.第二节阅读填空(共5小题；每题1分，满分5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的ABCDE.五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Most of them decide to study in a UK university after studying in middle schools in the UK. Studying in the UK can help them make their written and spoken English better, find out more about a different culture and experience very different ways of teaching.Studying in the UK will be an enjoyable experience. The UK isn't a large country. Its furthest mainland points are only 1, 350 km away. We can see many great cities in a short time, such as London, Cambridge and Oxford.Life for a student studying in the UK can be very exciting. Children start school at the age of 4. At 11, Children go to secondary school where they may study 10 subjects including math, science, English, history and one or more languages such as French. Classes in UK schools often have between 20 or 30 students. Most schools do not make students sit in the same seat for every lesson.Children do not just learn from books or a screen, but enjoy various sports as part of their school days, such as soccer, basketball, horse riding and so on. They can also join clubs after school.( ) 76.

Sometimes you should remember what your mother taught you: if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all, because bad advice may have terrible results. There are some ways for you to give advice.★ Listen to the person asking you for advice. Every situation (情况) is special so never think you know all about a problem. Listen to the person who wants advice, and learn as much as possible about the situation.★Put yourself in others’ shoes. Think about what you will do if you are in the same situation.Don’t just depend o n(依赖) your experiences to give advice.★ Think about the results of taking and not taking your advice. When possible, think twice about all the possible results. This is more important for really difficult problems.★ Understand that the person may not take your advice. Someone asks for your advice, but he or she may not take it. When you give advice, the idea is to give someone the tools (方法) to make their own decision, not make the decision for them. The person knows more about thesituation than you do, so your advice may not be the best. Don’t be surprised when a person doesn’t take your advice. Live with it, and let the person live with his or her decision.★ Don’t be afraid to let the person know that you don’t have anything to say if you are not able to give any advice. Take some time to think about it. You may share your thoughts later. ( ) 81.
