But people fail to realize the importance of training these factors in young people.The so-called ‘non-intelligence factors’ include 1 feelings, will, motivation, interests and habits. After a 30-year follow-up study of 8000 males, American psychologists 2 that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence 3 , but non-intelligence factors including the desire to learn, will power and self-confidence.4 people all know that one should have definite objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don’t pay much attention to5 these factors.Some parents are greatly worried 6 their children fail to do well in theirstudies. They blame either genetic factors, malnutrition,（营养不良）or laziness, but they never take 7 consideration these non-intelligence factors. At the same time, some teachers don’t inquire into these, as reasons 8 students do poorly. They simply give them more courses and exercises, or 9 criticize or laugh at them. After all, these students lose self-confidence. Some of them just feel defeated and 10 themselves up as hopeless. Others may go astray because they are sick of learning. 11 investigation of more than 1,000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 11.5 per cent of them were 12 of learning, because of examinations, 1.4 per cent lacked persistence, initiative and consciousness and 10.3 per cent were sick of learning.It is clear 13 the lack of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main 14 to intelligence development in teenagers. It even causes an imbalance between physiological and 15 development among a few students.If we don’t start now to 16 the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only affect the development of the 17 of teenagers, but also affect the quality of a whole generation. Some experts have put forward 18 about how to cultivate students’ non-intelligence factors.First, parents and teachers should 19 understand teenage psychology. On this basis, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning, 20 their interests and toughening their willpower.1. A. one’s B. their C. his D. her2.

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.阅读理解题（20小题，每小题2分）Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Today just as technology changed the face of industry, farms have undergone an “agricultural revolution”. On the farm of today, machines provide almost all the power.One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer. A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently. The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant, how much livestock to buy, when to sell their products, and how much profit they can expect. Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs just for farmers. Programs are being written for hog producers, grain farmers, potato farmers, and dairy farmers. In the future, farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs. Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm, students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses. There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future. While the old-time farm depended on horse power, and modern farms depend on machine power, farms of the future will depend on computer power.Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot, a real “mechanized hired hand” that will be able to move and, in some ways, think like a human being. Agricultural engineers believe that computer-aided robots will make startling changes in farming before the end of the century. Unlike farmers of the present, farmers of the future will find that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them. Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear sheep, drive tractors, and harvest fruit. Even complex jobs will be done by robots. For example, in order to milk their cows, farmers must first drive them into the barn, then connect them to the milking machines, watch the machines, and disconnect them when they are finished. In the future, this will all be done by robots. In addition, when the milking is completed, the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk ispure. The complete mobilization of the farm is far in the future, but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long.1. Which sentence carried the main idea of the whole passage?A. The first sentence of the first paragraph.B. The first sentence of the second paragraph.C. The first sentence of the third paragraph.D. The last sentence of the second paragraph.2. according to the passage, computers cannot help farmers decide _______.A. how much money they can earn from their productsB. whether to plant a certain kind of cropC. what livestock to raiseD. when to sell their products3. Which of the following statements is true?A. Farmers in the future will depend totally on computers.B. Both computers and robots have been in use on today’s farms.C. Farmers mainly use machines on their farms at present.D. Students at agricultural colleges must take computer classes because they can do nothing without the help of computers on t oday’s farms.4. According to the engineers, ______will be done by robots in the near future.A. all farm workB. milking cowsC. most of the farm workD. some farm work5. What is the best title for the whole passage?A. Computer, Farmers' Best FriendB. Farmers in The FutureC. The Agricultural RevolutionD. Computers and RobotsPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.Scratchy（沙哑）throats（喉咙）, stuffy noses and body aches all spell misery, but being able to tell if the cause is a cold or flu (流感) may make a difference in how long the misery（痛苦; 悲惨）lasts.The American Lung Association (ALA) has issued new guidelines on fighting against colds and the flu, and one of the keys is being able to quickly tell the two apart. That's because the prescription（处方）drugs available for the flu need to be taken soon after the illness sets in. As for colds, the sooner a person starts taking over-the-counter remedy（治疗）, the sooner relief will come. （Ease; relieve）The common cold and the flu are both caused by viruses. More than 200 viruses can cause cold symptoms(症状), while the flu is caused by three viruses--flu A, B and C. There is no cure for either illness, but the flu can be prevented by the flu vaccine (疫苗), which is, for most people, the best way to fight the flu, according to the ALA. Covid-19But if the flu does strike, quick action can help. Although the flu and common cold have many similarities, there are some obvious signs to look for.Cold symptoms such as stuffy nose, runny nose and scratchy throat typically develop gradually, and adults and teens often do not get a fever. On the other hand, fever is one of the characteristic features of the flu for all ages. And in general, flu symptoms including fever and chills, sore throat and body aches come on suddenly and are more severe than cold symptoms.The ALA notes that it may be particularly difficult to tell when infants and preschool age children have the flu. It advises parents to call the doctor if their small children have flu-like symptoms.Both cold and flu symptoms can be eased with over-the-counter medications as well. However, children and teens with a cold or flu should not take aspirin（阿司匹林）for pain relief because of the risk of Reye syndrome (综合症), a rare but serious condition of the liver and central nervous system.There is, of course, no vaccine for the common cold. But frequent hand washing and avoiding close contact with people who have colds can reduce the likelihood of catching one.6. According to the author, knowing the cause of the misery will help ____.A) shorten the time of the illnessB) the patient buys medicine over the counterC) the patient obtain cheaper prescription drugsD) prevent people from catching colds and the flu7. We learn from the passage that____.A) one doesn't need to take any medicine if he has a cold or the fluB) aspirin should not be included in over-the-counter medicines for the fluC) delayed treatment of the flu will harm the liver and central nervous systemD) over-the-counter drugs can be taken to ease the misery caused by a cold or the flu8. According to the passage, to combat fight against the flu effectively, _____.A) one should identify the virus which causes itB) one should consult a doctor as soon as possibleC) one should take medicine upon catching the diseaseD) one should remain alert when the disease is spreading9. Which of the following symptoms will distinguish the flu from a cold?A) A stuffy nose. B) A high temperature.C) A sore throat. D) A dry cough10. If children have flu-like symptoms, their parents_____.A) are advised not to give them aspirinB) should watch out for signs of Reye syndromeC) are encouraged to take them to hospital for vaccinationD) should prevent them from mixing with people running a feverPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.The survival of about one fifth o f the world’s vertebrates - animals with a backbone - is considered threatened, according to new research published in the journal Science. That’s a large fraction of Earth’s animals, but this new study held some good news too. Conservation efforts by humans have slowed the loss of many species of amphibians (两栖动物), birds, and mammals. Losses in these groups would have been about 20 percent greater had it not been for recent action of protection.Among the animal-conservation success stories is one about birds called Mauritius kestrels (红隼). In the 1970s, just four of these birds were left in the world. Through a special breeding program, scientists were able to increase their number to about 1,000 and release them into the wild.Humpback whales (座头鲸) have benefited greatly from recent conservation efforts as well. They were once on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s (IUCN) list of species threatened with extinction. But the species is now in less danger, thanks to laws that ban whale hunting. The IUCN even moved the humpback into “species of the least concern”.Over the past 100 years, the white rhino (犀牛) of South Africa has also made an amazing recovery because of habitat protection. The breed multiplied from just 50 animals to about 17.000. Their home has been turned into a protected area, safe from poachers (people who hunt animals illegally) and other threats.Stuart Butchart, one of the authors of the new study in Science, is encouraged by the positive effects of conservation. But he says, “Biodiversity (生物多样化) of species is in a frightening state. Its situationis getting worse. But our results show we can turn the situation around.”New conservation policies hopefully are on the way. One hundred ninety-three countries recently met in Japan at the Convention on Biological Diversity to set goals for preserving threatened wildlife and their habitats Only 1 percent of ocean and 12 percent of land areas were protected under earlier agreements. Two new goals set by the group are to designate (指定) 10 percent of the world’s ocean and 17 percent of land environments as protected areas to help increase endangered-animal population.11. What can we learn from the passage?A. Though there was a special breeding program, the number of Mauritius kestrels didn’t increase.B. Conservation efforts should not only be made by human beings.C. Humpback whales are not on the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s list now.D. Because many groups are working to protect wildlife, natural habitats are in good condition.12. Which of the following is not mentioned in people’s conservation efforts?A. Habitat protectionB. Breeding programsC. Laws of banning whale huntingD. Creation of studying organizations13. The author uses some successful animal-conservation examples to show that _______.A. conservation worksB. man conquers natureC. animals are more importantD. law is fair14. From the last paragraph we can infer that _______.A. much more must be done to prevent species from becoming extinctB. many animals should be removed from the endangered listC. humans seem to be at a loss in face of the protection of biodiversityD. people’s concern of species extinction is completely unnecessary15. The purpose of the new goals set by the Convention on Biological Diversity is to ______.A. protect ocean habitatsB. build land environmentsC. increase the population of endangered animalsD. control animal population Passage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.The British government recently announced a proposal to introduce healthcare access fees for migrants and long-term visitors this year. The fees would affect some foreign students, who would for the first time have to pay for medical cover while in Britain. The proposal is part of an immigration bill now going through Parliament and does not expressly target students. But concerns are being voiced that it would setup yet another obstacle for international access to the British education system-one of the most prestigious in the world."As a matter of principle, the charge is unfortunate and unfair, " said Dominic Scott, chief executive of the UK Council for International Student Affairs. Foreign students who need to apply for visas - those from countries outside the European Union - will have to pay 150 pounds per year of study when they are issued their visa, according to the plan laid out by the Department of Health.The proposed charge is relatively minor compared with tuition and other costs that for a foreign student in Britain can easily reach&20, 000a year. Critics of the plan concede that it is unlikely, by itself, to turn many away. Still, they warn that it will add to a cumulative message that is increasingly unwelcoming.It comes dung a controversial campaign for tighter immigration curbs and less than two years after the government eliminated a visa track, known as Tier-1(post-study work), that allowed newly graduated foreigners to stay in Britain to work. "Tier-1 was the hammer blow, but it's just possible that people will see this as one unpleasant thing after another, "Mr. Scott said. Daniel Stevens, the international students’ officer at the National union of Students, the country's largest student union, agreed, "You will see a shift in the attitude of international students toward other countries, "he said.Daniel Obst, deputy vice president of the Institute of International Education, said he thought it highly unlikely that the fee would cut the number of students going to Britain Still, "every time you have a new regulation, there is concern, "he said. "You have to deal with the perceptions issue."16. What result will the new proposal most probably bring according to the first paragraph?A. The policy will give a bad impression on potential overseas students.B. The reputation of British education system will be destroyed.C. British universities will setup another obstacle for foreign students.D. International students can't voice their opinions anymore.17. What is the impact of the new plan on students from outside the European Union?A. They will get a better medical care than before.B. Their cost of studying in the UK will increase.C. It will be more difficult for them to apply for a visa.D. They will receive a more unfair treatment on campus.18. According to critics, the new plan proposed by the Department of HealthA. will turn many foreign students away from the UK.B. conveys another unwelcoming message to foreign students.C. is unlikely to pass in Parliament.D. is increasingly welcomed by most foreign students.19. What do we know about Tier-l (post-study work) visa from the passage?A. It aimed to tighten the immigration policy.B. It helped to eliminate illegal immigrations.C. It allowed foreign students to pursuit further study.D. It has been cancelled by the UK government.20. As to proposing a new regulation, what suggestion does Daniel Obst make?A. Changing the public attitude towards a new regulation.B. Ignoring the concerns which a new regulation causes.C. Cutting down the number of new regulations.D. Dealing with the perceptions issue which a new regulation causes.Part V True or False (20 points, 2 points each)Directions：Read the following statements and decide whether each of them is True or False and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.判断题（10小题，每小题2分）1.

I. Reading Comprehension（本题共 20 小题，每题 2 分共 40 分）Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A.B.C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneIf one is asked about the best way to improve one's reading ability, it is of course, to read. As a student, you must make a real effort to improve both your reading speed and your comprehension. Too many students read passively and without judgment; they simply start at the first word and read through to the end. You should read a passage actively, selectively and purposefully. You must believe that you indeed have the ability to read faster and understand more, and that you will.Reading, like everything else in life, is best done when you are relaxed. The key to improve it is concentration. You must be willing to break some old habits and form new ones. Extra body movement, such as turning the head from side to side, pointing at the line with a finger or a pencil, or moving the lips, should be stopped immediately. Reading is mostly a mental process and body movement helps neither speed nor comprehension. Then you shouldsee words as part of a whole sentence or paragraph, not just in isolation. This is why a slow, word-by-word student often understands far less, missing much of the joy and excitement of reading.The student must learn to improve reading skills on their own, and not just when a teacher is looking over his shoulder. Reading improvement takes discipline and effort. Don't give up.1.If you want to improve your reading ability, you should .A. read each word in the passage carefullyB. read with choice, purpose and confidenceC. start at the first wordD. read a passage completely from the beginning to the end2.The best title of the passage might be “”.A. How to Improve Your Reading AbilityB. How to Cultivate Good Habits in ReadingC. Developing Reading MethodsD. Getting Rid of Your Bad Habits While Reading3.Best reading efficiency can be achieved if one .A. reads paragraph by paragraphB. reads in great detailC. reads with focusD. reads as fast as possible4.According to the author, all the following are the bad habits in reading EXCEPT.A. moving the lipsB. pointing at words with somethingC. holding a book in handsD. turning the head from side to side5.The phrase "looking over his shoulder" in Paragraph 3 may best be replaced by “”.A. watching himB. examining his shoulderC. encouraging himD. looking at someone behind himPassage TwoOur memories can be both sweet and bitter. Many people spend all their lives to forget those bitter ones. Violence and traffic accidents, esp. can leave people with terrible physicaland emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers are developing a pill which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase, the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body from releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories."Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions." said Roger Pit man, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity(特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past."All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out." said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.6.The passage is mainly about .A. a new medical inventionB. an argument about the research on the pillC. a way of erasing painful memoriesD. a new research on the pill7.American researchers are developing a pill to .A. comfort those people who are in a frightening experienceB. help those people to forget their frightening experienceC. persuade those people to forget their frightening experienceD. test those people's degree of fright in a frightening experience8.The drug tested on people can .A. prevent the body from producing certain chemicalsB. relieve people of the mental tensionC. cause the brain to fix memoriesD. wipe out the memories of bad experiences9.We can infer from the passage that .A. people supporting the research believe that the pill will stop people's bad experiencesB. people supporting the research believe the pill will help people to reduce the harm caused by bad experiencesC. people against the research believe that the effect of the pills may not bed desirableD. people against the research believe that the pill will cause them to make mistakes10. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C.

They impose their own living conditions on the people who live in them. Persons living in cities are obliged by their environment to take a wholly unnatural way of life. They lose touch with the land and the rhythm of the nature. It is possible to live such an air-conditioned existence that you are barely conscious of the seasons. A few flowers in a public park (if you have time to visit it) may remind you that it is spring or summer. A few leaves clinging to the pavement may remind you that it is autumn. Beyond that, what is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are difficult to obtain. and therefore are highly valued. Traffic fumes pollute the atmosphere. Tall building hide the sun completely. Even the distinction between day and night is lost.rge modem cities impose their living condition on people in thatA. sunshine and fresh air are availableB. living conditions are improvedC. beautiful landscape can be foundD. air-conditioned houses are provided12.Which is NOT one of the reasons why city life is not more desirable?A. Tall buildings hide the sun completely.B. Modern cities are too big to control.C. Modern cities offer better schools and more chances of employment.D. People are barely conscious of the seasons.13.According to the passage, the following can be the reasons for the loss of distinction between day and night except thatA. persons living in cities live in air-conditioned housesB. people lose touch with the natureC. people are traveling through different time zonesD. the sun was hidden from view by tall buildings14.If you want to know what season it is,A. it is advisable for you to live in an air-conditioned houseB. you'd better visit a public parkC. you should go out to see the sunshine and breathe the fresh airD. you should walk on the pavement15.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. Large modern cities are too big to controlB. Sunshine and fresh air are rare in large modern cities.C. There are many disadvantages of living in large modern cities.D. All the simple, good things of life are imposed on the people who live in large cities.Passage FourRobots in use now are taking over the blue-collar jobs of less educated Americans, but artificial intelligence (AI) is probably ready to shake up college-educated employees in higher-paying jobs. This will leave no worker unaffected by the influence of technology on the American workforce.AI is generally regarded as programming computers to do things that normally require human intelligence-tasks such as planning, learning, reasoning and problem-solving. Muro, asenior fellow at the Brookings Institute, and his colleagues analyzed which jobs would be the most highly affected by artificial intelligence. What they learned is that almost every profession will feel Al's effects.But it’s hard to predict whether AI will take the place of more highly skilled workers in the same way robots have done to lower-skilled workers. AI might create entirely new jobs for humans. "We can't really say whether AI will lead to the support of work or its opposite. Both things could happen." says Muro.Jobs performed by people with a four-year college degree could be the hardest hit. These include market research analysts, sales managers, programmers, management analysts and engineers. Positions that are heavily involved in pattern-oriented or “predictive work” are more likely to be affected, according to the analysis.Of course, this is not the first time American workers have been influenced or potentially influenced by technology. The challenge, as Muro sees, it is to determine how humans can add value. He believes that human beings are durable in the face of new technologies. The question is how to help people accept training again, seek new work, and how they can adjust to it, or if their careers break down from this, how to provide a better social safety net.16.Who can AI affect most in the American workforce?A. Senior workers.B. Blue-collar workers.C. More-educated employees.D. Inexperienced employees.17.What did Muro and his colleagues find out?A. AI is considered as programming computers to complete tasks.B. AI can deal with tasks such as planning and reasoning.C. AI is better at problem-solving than humans.D. AI can affect almost every field.18.What can we infer from what Muto says?A. AI will replace some skilled workers.B. AI will play as a double-edged sword.C. AI will develop in the same way as robots.D. AI will create entirely new jobs for humans.19.Which of the following positions are NOT likely to be replaced by AI?A. Management analysts.B. Sales managers.C. Programmers.D. Fashion designers.20.What should human beings do in face of the challenges posed by AI?A. Use their potential to adjust to it.B. Work harder than before.C. Wait for another opportunity.D. Learn to be durable.II. Vocabulary and Structure ( 本题共 15 小题，每题 1 分，共 15 分 )Directions: For each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A.B.C and D.

Her has moved slowly along through 51 morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day.Once inside the hall she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes 52 she could get on one to go to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked " King Enterprises," she knocked at the door nervously and waited There was no answer. She knocked again, but still there was no reply.53 inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices. so she opened the door and went in.Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had had the interview with Mr. King, it looked quite different now. In fact. it 54 looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around 55 . At the far end of the room, somebody56 have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her.Then one of the men looked at his watch,57 his hands and said something to the others.Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any, attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly _ 58 from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr King, who would arrive 59. Then Marie realized that the day' s work in the office began just before Mr. King arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the 60 train every morning, arriving in the office at 9:35 a. m., so that his staff knew exactly when to start working.51.

Reading Comprehension ( 60 points)Directions: There are four reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET I.Passage OneIt was a case of emergency. The four-year-old girl awoke and smelled smoke. She couldn’t wake her mother, so she dialed "zero" An operator immediately called the fire department. Help was sent. and a tragedy avoidedDays before this emergency, the mother had taught her child how to telephone for help. Children as young as two and one-half years old can be taught to use the phone in emergencysituations. Here are some points.. Memorizing certain facts is important. Teach your children their names, and the section of town where you live. Try to keep what they learn within their abilities. Simple information. Learned well. is better than difficult information only partly learned.. Be sure your children know how to use the telephone. They should be taught to dial "zero" for the operator, at the very least. And they should be taught to dial "911" if it is used in your town. Practice over a period of several days. Over-learning is necessary so the child can act automatically in case of emergency.. If you would like a booklet giving instructions on calling for help, write Telephone For Help, Box 99, Bowling Green Station, New York, NY 10004.61. From this passage, why is it a good idea for children to learn how to use the telephone?A. Children have fun dialing.B. Emergencies happen without warning.C. Children can wake their parents.D. Dialing can help children with their math study.62. Based on this passage, over-learning is good because .A. simple information is usedB children should know their namesC. it helps children act automaticallyD. difficult information is only partly learned63. Paragraph 4 talks about dialing "911". This number is probably ___,A. the operatorB. an emergency numberC. a practice number for childrenD. used to keep children calm64. One thing the passage does NOT tell you to do is_______.A. call your neighborB. practice several timesC. teach children how to use the telephoneD. have children memorize some simple facts65. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Give instructions on calling for help.B. Partly-learned information is useless.C. Teach children how IQ deal with emergencies.D. Keep what children learn within their abilities.Passage TwoI was only eight years old when the Second World War ended, but I can still remember some-thing about the victory celebrations in the small town where I lived on the day when the war in Europe ended. We had not suffered much from the war there. But both at home and at school I had be-come accustomed to the phrases " before the war" and "when the war' s over". 'Before the war" .apparently. things had been better, though I was too young to understand why, except that there had been no bombs then, and people had eaten things like ice-cream and bananas. which I had only heard of. When the war was over we would go back to London. but this meant 1iide to me. I did not remember what London was like.What I remember now about VE (Victory in Europe) Day was the May evening. After dinner I said I wanted to see the bonfire (大火堆) . so when it got dark my father took me to the end of the street. The bonfire was ver7 high. and somehow people had collected some old clothes to dress the unmistakable figure with the moustache (胡子) they had to put on top of it. Just as we arrived. They set light to it. The flames rose and soon swallowed the "guy". Everyone was cheering and shouting, and an old woman came out of her house with two chairs and threw them on the fire to keep it going. I stood beside my father until the fire started to go down. not knowing what to say. He said nothing, either. He had fought in the First World War and may have been remembering the end of that. At last he said. "Well. that' s it. son. Let' s hope that this time it really will be the last one. "66.Where did the author live before the Second World War? _,A. In London.B. In a small town.C. in Europe.D. In the countryside.67. What kind of food had the author certainly not tasted during the war? _,A. Bread.B. Butter.C. Meat.D. Ice cream and bananas.68. The unmistakable figure with the moustache most probably represents _,A. those who died in the warB. those who had wonC. an imaginary figureD. the most hated person in the war-Hitler69. Which of the following statements is true?A. The author's father built a bonfire on VE Day.B. The author's father had fought in the First World War .C. The author' s farther had fought in the Second World War.D. The author' s father threw two chairs on the fire to keep it going.70. By saying "Let' s hope that this time it really will be the last one", the father meant thatA. he wished people had not built the bonfireB. he hoped people would not build any more bonfiresC. he hoped there would be no more wan in the worldD. he wished the Second World War had not happenedPassage ThreeAt the first sight the planet Mars does not appear very welcome to any kind of life. IL has very little oxygen and water; the temperature at night is below -50'C and winds of 100 miles per hour cause severe dust storms. However . the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it some time in the past, and it is believed that there ia enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melts. Although there is no life on the Mars now, some scientists think that there may have been some form of life long time ago. At that time, the planet had active volcanoes; the atmosphere was thicker and warmer; and there was water. In fact, in some ways the Mars may have been similar to the Earth, where life exists.Some people believe that the Mars could support 1ife in the future if the right conditions were produced. The first step would be to warm the planet using certain gases which trap the Sun's heat in the planet's atmosphere. With warmth, water and carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) , simple plants could begin to grow. These plants could slowly make the Mars more suitable for living. it is estimated that the whole process might take between 100,000 and 200,000 years. In the meantime. people could been to live on the planet in special closed environments. They would provide a lot of useful information about conditions on the Mars and the problems connected with 1iving there.71. Some scientists think there may have been life on the Mars in the past because _ .A. there is no life there nowB. there is a large amount of water at the polesC. the Mars may be able LO support life in the futureD. conditions may have been similar to those on the Earth72.

Part I Reading Comprehension (40﹪，40minutes)Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number ofcomprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer byblackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1After a day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. Duringthis time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get whilesleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, yourmuscles relax little by little. Your heart beast more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reachthe fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to another. Although yourmind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that whendreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move quickly (although your eye-lids are closed). This stageof sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply.Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an oldsuggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep.1. A good title for this passage is ____.A. SleepB. Good HealthC. DreamsD. Work and Rest2. The word "drowsy" in the last paragraph means ____.A. sickB. asleepC. a little sleepyD. nosy3. This passage suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you ____.A. dream more oftenB. have poor healthC. nervousD. breathe quickly4. During REM, ____.A. your eyes move oftenB. you dreamC. you are restlessD. both A and B5. The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is ____.A. approximately six hoursB. around ten hoursC. about eight hoursD. not stated herePassage 2For years, children in the industrial areas of Europe and America seldom left their smoky cities tosee the beauties of the countryside. This was not because the woods and fields were always far away,but because they were too far from the city to permit people to make a day trip between morning andnightfall.In 1970, a young German schoolmaster had an idea which changed this state of affairs. Hedecided to turn his little schoolhouse into a dormitory or hostel for the summer holidays. Anyone whobrought his sleeping bag and cooking equipment along could stay there for a very small quantity ofmoney. The idea was a success. A few years later, the schoolhouse was much too small to hold themany young people who wanted to stay there, As a result, a dormitory was set up in an old castlenearby. This was the first Youth Hostel.Today, young students and workers of every country can meet in the hostel and get to knoweach other. When young people arrive at the hostel, they have only to show their card of membershipin a hostel organization in their own country. This card will permit him to use the facilities of hostelsall over the world for very low prices.Often, at the evening meal, a group of boys and girls from various parts of the country or theworld will happen to meet at the same hostel. They may put their food together and prepare a dinnerwith many kinds of dishes. Sometimes a program will be organized after the meal with dances, songs,or short talks followed by a question period. One can learn a lot of things about other places, just bymeeting people who come from those places. For this reason, a few weeks spent "hostelling" canbe just as useful a part of one's education as classes in school.6. The author says children in the city seldom went to the woods and fields because ____.A. these places were too far away for them to go between morning and nightfallB. it was impossible for them to go and get back in one dayC. they were not old enough to take such a tripD. they were not permitted to go to these places7. By saying "His idea was a success", the author means ____.A. the school master made a lot of money and got richB. the school master became very famous among young studentsC. more and more young people went to the hostel for summer holidaysD. more and more young students came to study at his school8. According to the passage, young people can pay less for their stay in the hostel if ____.A. they share their food with each otherB. they can prove they have joined the hostel organizationC. they have brought enough equipment with themD. they can prove that they are from a foreign country9. In the author's opinion, young people can learn a lot during the days they speed "hostelling"because ____.A. they meet a lot of people from different placesB. they have such useful classes in the hostel as they don't have in schoolsC. they have more interesting activities than at schoolD. they are very much interested in life in the hostel10. Which do you think might be the proper tide for this passage?A. Youth Organization.B. International TravelC. Education Out of School.D. Summer Holidays.Passage 3One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, thevoice of theadvertisers. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us fromevery page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashesmessages to us in colored lights all night.Advertising has been among England's biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps thereason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer.At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about withoutworrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without addingcustomer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerance and stress factors. Sothey just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making itappeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that it confers(赋予) status, or attractslove, or signifies manliness.Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturershate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason oranother, some alteration seems called for-how much better to change the image, the packet or thepitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.11. Which of the following can best describe the author's attitude toward modem advertising?A. IndifferentB. ShockedC. DisappearingD. Approving12. According to the author, which is NOT the designer's chief concern when he designs aproduct?A. Stress factorsB. Man-hours.C. Machine toleranceD. Customer-appeal.13. It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a product customer-appeal are____.A. customersB. designersC. advertisersD. manufacturers14. According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, a manufacturer willchoose to ____.A. lower the production costB. hire a better designerC. improve its qualityD. alter its image15. The best title for the passage might be ____.A. Advertising since the WarB. Advertising and ManufacturersC. Advertising-England's Biggest IndustryD. Advertising and PurchasersPassage 4All that we really need to plot out the future of our universe are a few good measurements. Thisdoes not mean that we can sit down today and outline the future course of the universe with anythinglike certainty. There are still too many things we don't know about the way the universe is puttogether. But we do know exactly what information we need to fill in our knowledge, and we have apretty good idea of how to go about getting it. Perhaps the best way to think of our present situationis to imagine a train coming into a switchyard( 调车场). All of the switches(转辙器）are set before thetrain arrives, so that its path is completely determined. Some switches we can see. others we cannot.There is no ambiguity if we can see the setting of a switch; we can say with confidence that somepossible futures will not materialize and others will. At the unseen switches, however, there is nosuch certainty. We know the train will take one of the tracks leading out, but we have no idea whichone. The unseen switches are the true decision points in the future, and what happens when wearrive at them determines the entire subsequent course of events.billions of years intothe future, but after that there are decision points to be dealt with and possible fates to consider. Thegoal of science is to reduce the ambiguity at the decision points and find the true road that will befollowed.16. According to the passage, it is difficult to be certain about the dist universe because we ____.A. have too many conflicting theoriesB. do not have enough funding to continue our researchC. are not sure how the universe is put togetherD. have focused our investigations on the moon and planets17. What does the author see as the function of the universe's unseen "switches"?A. They tell us which one of the tracks the universe will use.B. They enable us to alter the course of the universe.C. They give us information about the lunar surface.D. They determine which course the universe will take in the future.18. In the second paragraph, the word "track" could hest be replaced by which of the following?A. BandB. RailsC. PathD. Sequence19. For whom is the author probably writing this passage?A. Train engineers.B. General audiences.C. Professors of statistics.D. Young children.20. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage?A. A statement illustrated by an analogy (类比).B. A hypothesis supported by documentation (引用文献).C. A comparison of two contrasting theories.D. A critical analysis of a common assumption.PartⅡ Vocabulary and Structure(20﹪，25minutes)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are fourchoices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence. Thenmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.21.
