TEXT AIt was 1961 and I was in the fifth grade. My marks in school were miserable and, the thing was, I didn't know enough to really care. My older brother and I lived with Mom in a dingy (dark and dirty 又黑又脏的；昏暗的；肮脏的adjective: squalid, grimy, dim) multi-family house in Detroit. We watched TV every night The background noise of our lives was gunfire and horses' hoofs from "Wagon Train (a long line of wagons and horses, used by people travelling west in N America in the 19th century （19 世纪美国人向西部迁移的）马拉篷车队)" or "Cheyenne (夏安族人a member of a North American Indian people living on the western plains)" , and laughter from " I Love Lucy" or " Mister Ed". After supper, we'd sprawl on Mom's bed and stare for hours at the tube.But one day Mom changed our world forever. She turned off the TV. Our mother had only been able to get through third grade. But she was much brighter and smarter than we boys knew at the time. She had noticed something in the suburban houses she cleaned—books. So she came home one day , snapped off the TV , sat us down and explained that her sons were going to make something of themselves. "You boys are going to read two books every week , " she said. "And you're going to write me a report on what you read. "We moaned and complained about how unfair it was. Besides, we didn't have any books in the house other than Mom's Bible. But she explained that we would go where the books were: "I'd drive you to the library."So pretty soon, there were these two peevish (easily annoyed by unimportant things; bad-tempered 爱生气的；易怒的；脾气坏的adjective: sullen, petulant, morose, testy, crabbed, pettish, fretful, grumpy, querulous) boys sitting in her white 1959 Oldsmobile (2000年通用汽车决定放弃旗下品牌奥斯莫比尔Oldsmobile) on their way to Detroit Public Library. I wandered reluctantly among the children's books. I loved animals, so when I saw some books that seemed to be about animals, I started leafing through (匆匆翻阅；浏览) them.The first book I read clear through was Chip the Dam Builder. It was about beavers (an animal with a wide flat tail and strong teeth.Beavers live in water and on land and can build dams(= barriers across rivers), made of pieces of wood and mud. 河狸；海狸). For the first time in my life I was lost in another world. No television program had ever taken me so far away from my surroundings as did this verbal visit to a cold stream in a forest and these animals building a home.It didn't dawn on ((of an idea) to occur to somebody; to be realized开始（被人）理解，渐渐（使人）明白) me at the time, but the experience was quite different from watching TV. There were images forming in my mind instead of before my eyes. And I could return to them again and again with the flip of a page.Soon I began to look forward to visiting this hushed (of a place 地方quiet because nobody is talking; much quieter than usual 寂静的；宁静的; voices 嗓音speaking very quietly 轻的；低声的) sanctuary (noun: shrine, refuge, asylum, shelter, temple, sanctum) from my other world. I moved from animals to plants, and then to rocks. Between the covers of all those books were whole worlds, and I was free to go anywhere in them. Along the way a funny thing happened I started to know things. Teachers started to notice it too. I got to the point where I couldn't wait to get home to my books.Now my older brother is an engineer and I am chief of pediatric neurosurgery (小儿神经外科) at John Hopkins Children's Center in Baltimore. Sometimes I still can't believe my life's journey, from a failing (below acceptable in performance; "received failing grades") and indifferent (not very good 不很好的；一般的) student in a Detroit public school to this position, which takes me all over the world to teach and perform critical surgery.But I know when the journey began: the day Mom snapped off the TV set and put us in her Oldsmobile for that drive to the library.文章精析：本文是叙述文体裁。

But it's probably safe to say that at least a few historians will one day speak of the 20th century as America's ― Disney era ‖ . Today, it's certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that repre sents modern America as powerfully as the company that created Mickey Mouse. Globally, brands like Coca-Cola and McDonalds may be more widely-known, but neither encapsulates 20th-century America in quite the same way as Disney.The reasons for Disney's success are varied and numerous, but ultimately the credit belongs to one person — the man who created the cartoon and built the company from nothing, Walt Disney. Ironically, he could not draw particularly well. But he was a genius in plenty of other respects. In business, his greatest skills were his insight and his management ability. After setting himself up in Hollywood, he single-handedly pioneered the concepts of branding and merchandising — something his company still does brilliantly today.But what really distinguished Disney was his ability to identify with his audiences. Disney always made sure his films championed the ― little guy ‖ , and made him feel proud to be American. This he achieved by creating characters that reflected the hopes and fears of ordinary people. Some celebrated American achievements — Disney's very first cartoonPlane Crazy, featuring a silent Mickey Mouse, was inspired by Charles Lindbergh's flight across the Atlantic.Others, like the There Little Pigs and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, showed how, through hard work and helping one's fellow man, or Americans could survive social and economic crises like the Great Depression.Disney's other great virtue was the fact that his company — unlike other big corporations — had a human face. His Hollywood studio — the public heard — operated just like a democracy, where everyone was on firstname terms and had a say in how things should be run. He was also regarded as a great patriot because not only did his cartoons celebrate America, but, during World War II, studios made training films for American soldiers.The reality, of course, was less idyllic. As the public would later learn, Disney's patriotism had an unpleasant side. After a strike by cartoonists in 1941, he became convinced that Hollywood had been infiltrated by Communists. Heagreed to work for the FBI as a mole, identifying and spying on colleagues whom he suspected were subversives.But, apart from his affiliations with the FBI, Disney was more or less the genuine article. A new book, The Magic Kingdom; Walt Disney and the American Way of Life, by Steven Watts, confirms that he was very definitely on the side ofordinary Americans — in the 30s and 40s he voted for Franklin Roosevelt, believing he was a champion of the workers. Also, Disney was not an apologist for the FBI, as some have suggested. In fact, he was always suspicious of large, bureaucratic organizations, as is evidenced in films like That Darned Cat, in which he portrayed FBI agents as bungling incompetents. By the time he died in 1966, Walt Disney was an icon like Thomas Edison and the Wright Brothers. To business people and filmmakers, he was a role model; to the public at large, he was ― Uncle Walt ‖— the man who had entertained them all their lives, the man who represented them all their lives, the man who represented all that was good about America.86. Walt Disney is believed to possess the following abilities EXCEPTA. Painting.B. CreativityC. Management.D. merchandising.87. According to the passage, what was the pleasant side of Disney’s patriotism?A. He sided with ordinary Americans in his films.B. He supported America’s war efforts in his own way.C. He had doubts about large, bureaucratic organizations.D. He voted for Franklin Roosevelt in the 30s and 40s.88. In the sixth paragraph the sentence ―Disney was more or less the genuine article‖ means thatA. Disney was a creative and capable person.B. Disney once agreed to work for the FBI.C. Disney ran his company in a democratic way.D. Disney was sympathetic with ordinary people.89. The writer’s attitude toward Walt Disney can best be described asA. Sympathetic.B. Objective.C. Critical.D. skeptical.PART VI WRITING [45 MIN. ] SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]The students’ Union of your university is planning to hold an arts festival next semester, and they are inviting students to contribute their ideas and suggestions as to how it should be organized or what should be included.Write on ANSWER SHEET TWO a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:MY IDEA OF A UNIVERSITY ARTS FESTIVALYou are to write in three parts.

But it ' s probably safe to say that atleast a few historians will one day speak of the 20th century as America ' s “ Disney era ” . Today, it ' s certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represe nts moder n America as powerfully as the compa ny that created Mickey Mouse.Globally, brands like Coca-Cola and McDonalds may be more widely-known, but neitheren capsulates 20th-ce ntury America in quite the same way as Disn ey.The reasons for Disney ' s success are varied and numerous, but ultimately the credit bel ongs to one pers on ——the man who created the carto on and built the compa nyfrom nothing, Walt Disney. Ironically, he could not draw particularly well. But he was a gen ius in ple nty of other respects. In bus in ess, his greatest skills were his in sightand his management ability. After setting himself up in Hollywood, he single-handedly pioneered the concepts of branding and merchandising —something his company still doesbrillia ntly today.But what really disti nguished Disney was his ability to ide ntify with hisaudiences. Disney always made sure his films championed the “ little guy ” , and madehim feel proud to be American. This he achieved by creating characters that reflected the hopes and fears of ord inary people. Some celebrated America n achieveme nts —Disney' s very first carto on Pla ne Crazy, featuri ng a sile nt Mickey Mouse, was in spiredby Charles Lindbergh ' s flight across the Atlantic. Others, like the There Little Pigsand Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, showed how, through hard work and helping one ' s fellow man, or America ns could survive social and econo mic crises like the GreatDepressi on.Disney ' s other great virtue was the fact that his company —unlike other big corporations —had a human face. His Hollywood studio —the public heard —operated just like a democracy, where every one was on first name terms and had a say in how thi ngs should be run. He was also regarded as a greatpatriot because not only did his cartoonscelebrate America, but, during World War II, studios made training films for American soldiers.The reality, of course, was less idyllic. As the public would later learn,Disney ' s patriotism had an unpleasant side. After a strike by cartoonists in 1941, he became convin ced that Hollywood had bee n in filtrated by Commu ni sts. He agreed to work for the FBI as a mole, ide ntify ing and spy ing on colleagues whom he suspected were subversives.But, apart from his affiliations with the FBI, Disney was more or less thegenuine article. A new book, The Magic Kingdom; Walt Disney and the American Wayof Life, by Steve n Watts, con firms that he was very defi nitely on the side of ordinary America ns—in the 30s and 40s he voted for Fran kli n Roosevelt, believ ing he was a champi on of the workers. Also, Disney was not an apologist for the FBI, as some have suggested. In fact, he was always suspicious of large, bureaucratic orga ni zati ons, as is evide need in films like That Darned Cat, in which he portrayed FBI age nts as bun gli ng in compete nts.By the time he died in 1966, Walt Dis ney was an icon like Thomas Edis on andthe Wright Brothers. To bus in ess people and filmmakers, he was a role model; to the publicat large, he was “ Un cle Walt " — the man who had en terta ined them all their lives, the man who represented them all their lives, the man who represented all that was goodabout America.86. Walt Disney is believed to possess the following abilities EXCEPTA. pain ti ng.B. creativityC. man ageme nt.D. mercha ndis ing.87. According to the passage, what was the pleasant side of Disney 's patriotism?A. He sided with ordinary America ns in his films.B. He supported America ' s war efforts in his own way.C. He had doubts about large, bureaucratic orga ni zati ons.D. He voted for Franklin Roosevelt in the 30s and 40s.88. In the sixth paragraph the sentence “ Disney was more or less the genuinearticle ” means thatA. Disney was a creative and capable pers on.B. Disney once agreed to work for the FBI.C. Disney ran his compa ny in a democratic way.D. Disney was sympathetic with ord inary people.89.

Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Mark your answers on your answer sheet.TEXT AIt was 1961 and I was in the fifth grade. My marks in school were miserable and, the thing was, I didn't know enough to really care. My older brother and I lived with Mom in a dingy multi-family house in Detroit. We watched TV every night The background noise of our lives was gunfire and horses' hoofs from "Wagon Train" or " Cheyenne" , and laughter from " I Love Lucy" or " Mister Ed". After supper, we'd sprawl on Mom's bed and stare for hours at the tube.But one day Mom changed our world forever. She turned off the TV. Our mother had only been able to get through third grade. But she was much brighter and smarter than we boys knew at the time. She had noticed something in the suburban houses she, cleaned—books. So she came home one day , snapped off the TV , sat us down and explained that her sons were going to make something of themselves. " You boys are going to read two books every week , " she said. "And you're going to write me a report on what you read. "We moaned and complained about how unfair it was. Besides, .we didn't have any books in the house other than Mom's Bible. But she explained that we would go where the books were : "I'd drive you to the library. "So pretty soon, there were these two peevish boys sitting in her white 1959 Oldsmobile on their way to Detroit Public Library. I wandered reluctantly among the children's books. I loved animals, so when I saw some books that seemed to be about animals, I started leafing through them.The first book I read clear through was Chip the Dam Builder. It was about beavers. For the first time in my life I was lost in another world. No television program had ever taken me so far away from my surroundings as did this verbal visit to a cold stream in a forest and these animals building a home.It didn't dawn on me at the time , but the experience was quite different from watching TV. There were images forming in my mind instead of before my eyes. And I could return to them again and again with the flip of a page.Soon I began to look forward to visiting this hushed sanctuary from my other world. I moved from animals to plants , and then to rocks. Between the covers of all thosebooks were whole worlds, and I was free to go anywhere in them. Along the way a funny thing happened I started to know things. Teachers started to notice it too. I got to the point where I couldn't wait to get home to my books.Now my older brother is an engineer and I am chief of pediatric neurosurgery at John Hopkins Children's Center in Baltimore. Sometimes I still can't believe my life's journey, from a failing and indifferent student in a Detroit public school to this position, which takes me all over the world to teach and perform critical surgery.But I know when the journey began: the day Mom snapped off the TV set and put us in her Oldsmobile for that drive to the library.81.

But it's probably safe to say that at least a few historians will one day speak of the 20th century as America's "Disney era". Today, it's certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represents modern America as powerfully as the company that createdMickey Mouse. Globally, brands like Coca-Cola and McDonalds may be more widely-known, but neither encapsulates 20th-century America in quite the same way as Disney.The reasons for Disney's success are varied and numerous, but ultimately the credit belongs to one person – the man who created the cartoon and built the company from nothing, Walt Disney. Ironically, he could not draw particularly well. But he was a genius in plenty of other respects. In business, his greatest skills were his insight and his management ability. After setting himself up inHollywood, he single-handedly pioneered the concepts of branding and merchandising – something his company still does brilliantly today.But what really distinguished Disney was his ability to identify with his audiences. Disney always made sure his films championed the "little guy", and made him feel proud to be American. This he achieved by creating characters that reflected the hopes and fears of ordinary people. Some celebrated American achievements –Disney's very first cartoon Plane Crazy, featuring a silentMickey Mouse, was inspired by Charles Lindbergh's flight across the Atlantic. Others, like the There Little Pigs and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, showed how, through hard work and helping one's fellow man, or Americans could survive social and economic crises like the Great Depression.Disney's other great virtue was the fact that his company –unlike other big corporations – had a human face. His Hollywood studio – the public heard – operated just like a democracy, where everyone was on first name terms and had a say in how things should be run. He was also regarded as a great patriot because not only did his cartoons celebrate America, but, during World War II, studios made training films forAmerican soldiers.The reality, of course, was less idyllic. As the public would later learn,Disney's patriotism had an unpleasant side. After a strike by cartoonists in1941, he became convinced that Hollywood had been infiltrated by Communists. He agreed to work for the FBI as a mole, identifying and spying on colleagues whom he suspected were subversives.But, apart from his affiliations with the FBI, Disney was more or less the genuine article. A new book, The Magic Kingdom; Walt Disney and the American Way of Life, by Steven Watts, confirms that he was very definitely on the side of ordinary Americans – in the 30s and 40s he voted for Franklin Roosevelt, believing he was a champion of the workers. Also, Disney was not an apologist for the FBI, as some have suggested. In fact, he was always suspicious of large, bureaucratic organizations, as is evidenced in films like That Darned Cat, in which he portrayed FBI agents as bungling incompetents.By the time he died in 1966, Walt Disney was an icon like Thomas Edison and the Wright Brothers. To business people and filmmakers, he was a role model; to the public at large, he was "Uncle Walt" –the man who had entertained them all their lives, the man who represented them all their lives, the man who represented all that was good about America.86. Walt Disney is believed to possess the following abilities EXCEPTA. paintingB. creativityC. managementD. merchandising87. According to the passage, what was the pleasant side of Disney's patriotism?A. He sided with ordinary Americans in his films.B. He supported America's war efforts in his own way.C. He had doubts about large, bureaucratic organizations.D. He voted for Franklin Roosevelt in the 30s and 40s.88. In the sixth paragraph the sentence "Disney was more or less the genuine article" means that ________.A. Disney was a creative and capable person.B. Disney once agreed to work for the FBI.C. Disney ran his company in a democratic way.D. Disney was sympathetic with ordinary people.89. The writer's attitude toward Walt Disney can best be described as ________.A. sympatheticB. objectiveC. criticalD. skepticalTEXT CWhy do you listen to music? If you should put this question to a' number of people, you might receive answers like these; " I like the beat of music" , " I look for attractive tunefulness" , " I am moved by the sound of choral singing" ," I listen to music for many reasons but I could not begin to describe them to you clearly". Answers to this question would be many and diverse, yet almost no one would reply , "Music means nothing to me. " To most of us, music means something; it evokes some response. We obtain some satisfaction in listening to music.For many, the enjoyment of music does not remain at a standstill. We feel that we can get more satisfaction from the musical experience. We want to make closer contact with music in order to learn more of its nature ; thus we can range more broadly and freely in the areas of musical style, form, and expression. This book explores ways of achieving these objectives. It deals, of course, with the techniques of music , but only in order to show how technique is directed toward expressive aims in music and toward the listener's musical experience. In this way, we may get an idea of the composer's intentions, for indeed, the composer uses every musical device for its power to communicate and for its contribution to the musical experience.Although everyone hears music differently, there is a common ground from which all musical experiences grow. That source is sound itself. Sound is the raw material of music. It makes up the body and substance of all musical activity. It is the point of departure in the musical experience.The kinds of sound that can be used for musical purposes are amazingly varied. Throughout the cultures of the world, East and West, a virtually limitless array of sounds has been employed in the service of musical expression. Listen to Oriental theatre music, then to an excerpt from a Wagner work; these two are worlds apart in their qualities of sound as well as in almost every other feature, yet each sayssomething of importance to some listeners. Each can stir a listener and evoke a re-sponse in him. All music, whether it is the pulsation of primitive tribal drums or the complex coordination of voices and instruments in an opera, has this feature ; it is based upon the power of sound to stir our senses and feelings.Yet sound alone is not music. Something has to happen to the sound. It• must move forward in time. Everything that takes place musically involves the movement •of sound. If we hear a series of drumbeats, we receive an impression of movement from one stroke to the next. When sounds follow each other in a pattern of melody, we receive an impression of movement from one tone to the next. All music moves; and because it moves , it is associated with as fundamental truth of existence and ex-perience. We are stirred by impressions of movement because our very lives are constantly in movement. Breathing, the action of the pulse , growth , decay , the change of day and night , as well as the constant flow of physical action—these all testify to the fundamental role that movement plays in our lives. Music appeals to our desire and our need form movement.90. The author indicates at the beginning of the passage thatpeople listen to music for similar reasons rreasons for listening to music are variedsome people don't understand music at allpurposes for listening to music can be specified - '91. We can infer from the second paragraph • that the book from which this excerpt is taken is mainly meant forA. listenersB. composersC. musiciansD. directors92. According to the passage, enjoying music is not an end in itself because people hope to'through listening.A. learn more musical devicesB. know more about composers– 111 –C. communicate more effectivelyD. understand 'music better93. What is the common ground for musical experience to develap?A. Material.B. Listening.C. Sound.D. Activity.94. The importance of movement in music is explained by comparing it toA. a pattern of melodyB. a series of drumbeatsC. physical movementD. existence and experienceTEXT DPsychologists agree that I.Q. contributes only about 20 percent of the factors that determine success. A full 80 percent comes from other factors，including what I call emotional intelligence. Following are two of the major qualities that make up emotional intelligence，and how they can be developed：1.Self-awareness. The ability to recognize a feeling as it happens is the keystone of emotional intelligence. People with greater certainty about their emotions are better pilots of their lives.Developing self-awareness requires tuning in to what neurologist Antonio Damasio calls “gut feelings”。

Sit down please, Mr. Johnson.M: Thank you, madam.W: I have read your letter here. You seemed to have done very well at school. Can you tell me something about your school work?M: As you can see, my strongest subjects were arts subjects. My best subject was history and my second best was geography. However, my favorite subject was math, and the results I got in the math paper were quite reasonable.W: That's true. Now, can you tell me why you think these subjects will help you in this job?M: Well, madam, I understand that you manufacture computers, prepare software, and advise clients on how to use them. Is that right?W: That's right.M: And I've been told that working with computers needs a logical mind rather than great skills in mathematics. That's especially true, I believe, when it comes to writing programs. So I think my results show that I have some ability in logic and in mathematics as well.W: So, you would like to write material for computers, would you?M: Yes, madam. That's what interests me most about computers - writing programs, but I think the computer industry itself is still expanding enormously. I'm sure that career prospects in the industry would be very good no matter what sort of job I went into.W: I see, well, thank you. I've enjoyed our talk. We'll be writing to you.M: Thank you, madam. Good morning.Questions 4 to 7 are based on the following conversation.W: Excuse me. Could I ask you some questions?M: Of course.W: I work for an advertising agency and I'm doing some research.

Phone number, right.M: Then we need the full name, address and phone number of the person you are sending the parcel to.W: Ok, anything else?M: Yes, the weight and dimensions of the parcel. That's height, weight and length. And the value of the goods and full description.W: Value, description.M: Yes, but don't seal the parcel.

Goodbye.W: Goodbye.SECTION B PASSAGESQuestions 11 to 13 are based on the following announcement.Attention, all passengers, platform change! This is a platform change. The train now standing at Platform 9 is the 10:48 train calling at all stations to Nanjing. Please note the train on Platform 9 is not the 10:52 train to Jinan. It's the 10:48 train calling at all stations to Nanjing. The 10:52 to Jinan will now leave from Platform 7. Train announcement, the 11:20 train to Zhengzhou from Platform 8 will be subject to a 15-minute delay. I re peat there will be a 15-minute delay for the Zhengzhou train on Platform 8. It will now leave at 11:35, not 11: 20. The 11:28 train to Hangzhou has been cancelled. We apologize to customers, but due to signal problems, the 11:28 train toHangzhou from Platform 15 has been cancelled. The 11:32 train to Tianjin is now standing at Platform 13. Please note, there will be no restaurant car on this train. I repeat: there will be no restaurant car on the 11:32 to Tianjin now standing at Platform 13.Questions 14 to 16 are based on the following passage.The International Red Cross in Red Crescent Museum was opened in Geneva in 1988. It tells the story of men and women who in the course of the major events of the last 150 years have given assistance to victims of war and natural disasters. The organization was established in 1863 and was based on the idea by a Swiss businessman called Henry Durant. He had witnessed the heavy casualties of the battle of Solferino in Italy four years earlier, in which 40,000 people were killed, wounded or missing. He had seen the lack of medical services in the great suffering of many of the wounded who simply died from lack of care. The International Red Cross or Red Crescent exists to help the victims of conflicts and disasters regardless of their nationalities. The symbol of the organization was originally just a red cross. It has no religious significance. The founders of the movement adopted it as a tribute to Switzerland. However, during the rest of the Turkish war, the Turks felt that the cross could be seen as a fence to the Muslim soldiers and the second symbol, the red crescent, was adopted for use by national organizations in the Islamic world. Both are now official symbols.Questions 17 to 20 are based on the following passage.At major college or high school sports events, cheerleaders, both male and female, jump and dance in front of the crowd, and shout the name of their team, running around, yelling "Go Team Go!" The first cheerleader ever was a man. In 1898, Johnny Campbell jumped in front of the crowd at the university of Minnesota and shouted for his team. He shouted "Hurrah, Minnesota!" This was the first organized show, or yell. For the next 32 years, cheerleaders were men only. Cheerleading is not just about cheering. They practice special shows, dances, and athletic shows. The men throw the women high in the air, and catch them. The team members climb on each other's shoulders to make a human pyramid. They yell and dance too. It is like human fire works. Of course, they may often suffer serious knee and wrist injuries and bloody noses. Cheerleaders have their own contests every year at local, state and national levels. And a crowd shouts for them. It is not fair to think cheerleading is just being cheerful and lively and having a loud voice. Cheerleading is a sport in itself.SECTION C NEWS BROADCASTQuestions 21 and 22 are based on the following news.The bodies of dozens of African emigrants discovered off the Italian coast last week might have been thrown overboard, Italian officials said on Monday. A coast guard spokesman said 15 illegal emigrants, all believed to come from Somalia, survived being thrown into the Mediterranean sea. But one of the survivors, a woman, was in a serious condition. They told the coast guard that their boat had left Libya 20 days before with around 100 immigrants aboard. They said most had died during the trip. Last Friday, 7 Africans, including 3 children, died before their boat could reach the island. A further 25 people survived.Question 23 is based on the following news.China has set aside on putting 3 people into space for a week, the China news service said on Tuesday.

But it's probably safe to say that atleast a few historians will one day speak of the 20th century as America's ―Disney era ‖ . Today, it's certainly difficult to think of any o ther singlething that represents modern America as powerfully as the company that createdMickey Mouse. Globally, brands like Coca-Cola and McDonalds may be morewidely-known, but neither encapsulates 20th-century America in quite the sameway as Disney.The reasons for Disney's success are varied and numerous, but ultimately thecredit belongs to one person — the man who created the cartoon and built thecompany from nothing, Walt Disney. Ironically, he could not draw particularlywell. But he was a genius in plenty of other respects. In business, his greatestskills were his insight and his management ability. After setting himself up inHollywood, he single-handedly pioneered the concepts of branding and merchandising — something his company still does brilliantly today.But what really distinguished Disney was his ability to identify with his audiences. Disney always made sure his films championed the ― little guy ‖ , and made him feel proud to be American. This he achieved by creating characters that reflected the hopes and fears of ordinary people. Some celebrated American achievements — Disney's very first cartoon Plane Crazy, featuring a silentMickey Mouse, was inspired by Charles Lindbergh's flight across the Atlantic. Others, like the There Little Pigs and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, showed how, through hard work and helping one's fellow man, or Americans could survive social and economic crises like the Great Depression.Disney's other great virtue was the fact that his company — unlike other big corporations — had a human face. His Hollywood studio — the public heard —operated just like a democracy, where everyone was on firstname terms and had asay in how things should be run. He was also regarded as a great patriot becausenot only did his cartoons celebrate America, but, during World War II, studiosmade training films for American soldiers.The reality, of course, was less idyllic. As the public would later learn,Disney's patriotism had an unpleasant side. After a strike by cartoonists in1941, he became convinced that Hollywood had been infiltrated by Communists. He agreed to work for the FBI as a mole, identifying and spying on colleagues whomhe suspected were subversives.But, apart from his affiliations with the FBI, Disney was more or less the genuine article. A new book, The Magic Kingdom; Walt Disney and the American Way of Life, by Steven Watts, confirms that he was very definitely on the side ofordinary Americans — in the 30s and 40s he voted for Franklin Roosevelt,believing he was a champion of the workers. Also, Disney was not an apologistfor the FBI, as some have suggested. In fact, he was always suspicious of large, bureaucratic organizations, as is evidenced in films like That Darned Cat, inwhich he portrayed FBI agents as bungling incompetents.By the time he died in 1966, Walt Disney was an icon like Thomas Edison andthe Wright Brothers. To business people and filmmakers, he was a role model; toth e public at large, he was ― Uncle Walt ‖— the man who had entertained them all their lives, the man who represented them all their lives, the man whorepresented all that was good about America.86. Walt Disney is believed to possess the following abilities EXCEPTA. painting.B. creativityC. management.D. merchandising.87. According to the passage, what was the pleasant side of Disney’s patriotism?A. He sided with ordinary Americans in his films.B. He supported America’s war efforts in his own way.C. He had doubts about large, bureaucratic organizations.D. He voted for Franklin Roosevelt in the 30s and 40s.88. In the sixth paragraph the sentence ―Disney was more or less the genuine article‖ means thatA. Disney was a creative and capable person.B. Disney once agreed to work for the FBI.C. Disney ran his company in a democratic way.D. Disney was sympathetic with ordinary people.89. The writer’s attitude toward Walt Disney can best be described asA. sympathetic.B. objective.C. critical.D. skeptical.TEXT CTEXT DPART VI WRITING [45 MIN. ]SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]The students’ Union of your university is planning to hold an arts festival next semester, and they are inviting students to contribute their ideas andsuggestions as to how it should be organized or what should be included.Write on ANSWER SHEET TWO a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:MY IDEA OF A UNIVERSITY ARTS FESTIV ALY ou are to write in three parts.In the first part, state specifically what your idea is.In the second part, provide one or two reasons to support your idea OR describeyour idea.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or asummary.Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness.

Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Mark your answers on your answer sheet.TEXT ATEXT BPredicting the future is always risky. But it’s probably safe to say that at least a few historians will one day speak of the 20th century as America’s “ Disney era ” . Today, it’s certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represents modern America as powerfully as the company that created Mickey Mouse. Globally, brands like Coca-Cola and McDonalds may be more widely-known, but neither encapsulates 20th-century America in quite the same way as Disney.The reasons for Disney’s success are varied and numerous, but ultimately the credit belongs to one person — the man who created the cartoon and built the company from nothing, Walt Disney. Ironically, he could not draw particularly well. But he was a genius in plenty of other respects. In business, his greatest skills were his insight and his management ability. After setting himself up in Hollywood, he single-handedly pioneered the concepts of branding and merchandising —something his company still does brilliantly today.But what really distinguished Disney was his ability to identify with his audiences. Disney always made sure his films championed the “ little guy ” , and made him feel proud to be American. This he achieved by creating characters that reflected the hopes and fears of ordinary people. Some celebrated American achievements —Disney’s very first cartoon Plane Crazy, featuring a silent Mickey Mouse, was inspired by Charles Lindbergh’s flight across the Atlantic. Others, like the There Little Pigs and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, showed how, through hard work and helping one’s fellow man, or Americans could survive social and economic crises like the Great Depression.Disney’s other great virtue was the fact that his company — unlike other big corporations — had a human face. His Hollywood studio — the public heard — operated just like a democracy, where everyone was on firstname terms and had a say in how things should be run. He was also regarded as a great patriot because not only did his cartoonscelebrate America, but, during World War II, studios made training films for American soldiers.The reality, of course, was less idyllic. As the public would later learn, Disney’s patriotism had an unpleasant side. After a strike by cartoonists in 1941, he became convinced that Hollywood had been infiltrated by Communists. He agreed to work for the FBI as a mole, identifying and spying on colleagues whom he suspected were subversives.But, apart from his affiliations with the FBI, Disney was more or less the genuine article. A new book, The Magic Kingdom; Walt Disney and the American Way of Life, by Steven Watts, confirms that he was very definitely on the side of ordinary Americans — in the 30s and 40s he voted for Franklin Roosevelt, believing he was a champion of the workers. Also, Disney was not an apologist for the FBI, as some have suggested. In fact, he was always suspicious of large, bureaucratic organizations, as is evidenced in films like That Darned Cat, in which he portrayed FBI agents as bungling incompetents.By the time he died in 1966, Walt Disney was an icon like Thomas Edison and the Wright Brothers. To business people and filmmakers, he was a role model; to the public at large, he was “ Uncle Walt ”— the man who had entertained them all their lives, the man who represented them all their lives, the man who represented all that was good about America.86. Walt Disney is believed to possess the following abilities EXCEPTA. painting.B. creativityC. management.D. merchandising.87. According to the passage, what was the pleasant side of Disney’s patriotism?A. He sided with ordinary Americans in his films.B. He supported America’s war efforts in his own way.C. He had doubts about large, bureaucratic organizations.D. He voted for Franklin Roosevelt in the 30s and 40s.88. In the sixth paragraph the sentence “Disney was more or less the genuine article” means thatA. Disney was a creative and capable person.B. Disney once agreed to work for the FBI.C. Disney ran his company in a democratic way.D. Disney was sympathetic with ordinary people.89. The writer’s attitude toward Walt Disney can best be described asA. sympathetic.B. objective.C. critical.D. skeptical.TEXT CTEXT DPART VI WRITING [45 MIN. ]SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]The students’ Union of your university is planning to hold an arts festival next semester, and they are inviting students to contribute their ideas and suggestions as to how it should be organized or what should be included.Write on ANSWER SHEET TWO a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:MY IDEA OF A UNIVERSITY ARTS FESTIVALYou are to write in three parts.In the first part, state specifically what your idea is.In the second part, provide one or two reasons to support your idea OR describe your idea.

2005年51. If you explained the situation to your solicitor, he ____able toadvise you much better than I can.A. would beB. will have beenC. wasD. were[译文]如果你把情况向你的事务律师说明，他会比我更能给你提出好的建议。

[考点]虚拟语气。

本句条件从句中的谓语动词用了过去式explained，说明其内容与现在/将来的情况相反，所以主句谓语应该由would+动词原形构成。

B，C不用于虚拟语气；D．were只用于表虚拟的条件句中。

solicitor初级律师。

52. _________, Mr. Wells is scarcely in sympathy with theworking class.A. Although he is a socialistB. Even if he is a socialistC. Being a socialistD. Since he is a socialist[译文]韦尔斯先生虽然是个社会主义者，却几乎不同情和支持工人阶级。

[考点]连词的含义与用法。

本句表达的是一般性的转折、让步关系，应该选A. Although“尽管，虽然”。

B．Even if也表示让步，但其意为“即使/即便……，也……”，强调“假设的、退一步的”情况，例如：Eyen if I become a millionaire，I shall always be a socialist．(我即使成了百万富翁，也永远是个社会主义者。

)C．Being a socialist是现在分词短语表示原因，相当于一个表示原因的状语从句，例如：Not knowing her address，we couldn’t get in touch with her．(因为不知道她的地址，我们没法和她联系。

) D．Since he is a socialist也表示原因，都不符合句意。

53. His remarks were ________ annoy everybody at the meeting.A. so as toB. such as toC. such toD. as much as to[译文]他所说的话让参加会议的每一个人都感到不快。

[考点]固定搭配的用法。

本题考查such as to的用法。

such as to表示“如此……以至于”，其中such是个代词，用来指代程度。

在本句中such指“冒犯性的言语”，因此正确选项为B。

A．so as to“以便……”，表目的，不合句意。

C，D无此用法。

54. James has just arrived, but I didn’t know he _________ untilyesterday.A. will comeB. was comingC. had been comingD. came[译文]詹姆斯刚到，不过我直到昨天才知道他要来。

[考点]时态用法。

本句是在过去时间里(昨天)看将来动作(詹姆斯要来)，应该用过去将来时。

因为come/so/ leave一类动词的进行时可以表将来，was coming表达的就是过去将来时，因此B是正确答案。

A. will come和D．came的时态明显错误。

C. had been coming是过去完成进行时，表示一个动作一直持续到过去某个时间，尤其强调与一个过去动作相比时间上更为靠前，例如：Nancy told me she had been looking for me．(南希告诉我她一直在找我。

)首先，用于这个时态的动词都是持续性动词，瞬间动词come不能用于此处；其次，选项C表达的意思是“他来”这个动作一直持续到昨天，显然与句意不合。

55. _________ conscious of my moral obligations as a citizen.A. I was and always will beB. I have to be and always will beC. I had been and always will beD. I have been and always will be[译文]我一直记得而且也将永远记得自己作为一个公民所负有的道义上的责任。

[考点]时态用法。

该句是一般性的陈述，没有理由用过去时或过去完成时，故排除A和C。

选项B中的have to“不得不”表达的是被迫、不情愿的意思，与句子正面、肯定的意思相反。

只有D正确地表达了说话者的观念持续到现在并将延续到将来的意思。

conscious of 认识到。

56. Because fuel supplies are finite and many people are wasteful, we will have to install ___ solar heating device in our home.A. some type ofB. some types of aC. some type of aD. some types of[译文]由于燃料供应有限以及人们的浪费，我们将来不得不在家里安装某种太阳能供暖设施了。

[考点]固定搭配。

在sort of，kind of和type of后面，冠词a/an通常省略。

另外，some在这里指不确定的“某种，某个”而非具体的“一些”，所以A .some type of是正确选项。

57. I went there in 1984, and that was the only occasion when I ____the journey in exactly two days.A. must takeB. must have madeC. was able to makeD. could make[译文]我1984年去了那里，那也是我惟一一次有机会能够刚好在两天内完成旅行。

[考点]情态动词的含义和用法。

本句是陈述过去事实，而A．must多指现在或将来的情况，一般不用来表示过去必须做某事，据此排除。

B．must have done sth．表示对过去行为的推测、猜想，不一定是事实，与句意不符。

D．could指“一般的能力”，通常不表示某人在某一场合设法做了某事，故不正确。

C. was able to专用于过去的具体场合，尤其指“具有能力完成某件有难度的事情”，因此C是正确答案。

58. I know he failed his la st test, but really he’s _____stupid.A. something butB. anything butC. nothing butD. not but译文]我知道他最近一次考试没通过，但他真的绝对不笨。

[考点]固定短语的含义。

正确答案B．anything but表达“决不”的意思，例如：I will do anything but go there．(我决不到那里去。

)That's anything but true．(那决不是真的。

)C．nothing but表达“只有，只是”的意思，例如：He eats nothing but hamburgers．(他只吃汉堡包。

)因此he's nothing but stupid的意思是“他就是太蠢了”，与转折的语气不符合。

A. something but和D．not but都不是固定短语。

59. Do you know Tim’s brother? He is _________ than Tim.A. much more sportsmanB. more of a sportsmanC. more of sportsmanD. more a sportsman[译文]你认识蒂姆的兄弟吗?他比蒂姆更爱好运动。

[考点]名词的程度比较。

对于一些可显示程度的名词，把带of的数量词放在其前面可以表示程度的修饰，例如：He's very much of a family man．(他是一个很喜欢家庭生活的男人。

)I think she is a bit of a fool．(我觉得她有点傻。

)这种用法也有比较级，用来比较两者程度的差异，例如：It was more of a meeting than a party．(与其说是一个聚会，不如说是一次会议。

)She is less of a scientist than a technologist．(她是个技术专家，不是科学家。

)注意：这种结构只能与单数可数名词连用。

因此B是惟一正确的选项。

60. That was not the first time he ____ us. I think it’s high time we ___ strong actions against him.A. betrayed…takeB. had betrayed…tookC. has betrayed…tookD. has betrayed…take[译文]那不是他第一次背叛我们。

我认为我们该对他采取强硬措施了。

[考点]时态用法和虚拟语气。

当句子里有序数词first/second/third...、副词only或最高级best/worst/most的时候，后面的定语从句要用完成时态，例如：It is one of the most interesting books I've ever read．(这是我看过的最有趣的书之一。

)因为句子是过去时，这里应该用过去完成时。

另外，it's(high)time后的谓语要用过去时表示虚拟语气，因此B．had betrayed...took是正确答案。

61. What’s the chance of ________ a general election this year?A. there beingB. there to beC. there beD. there going to be[译文]今年举行大选的可能性有多大?[考点]动名词的用法。

句中介词of后面要跟动名词being，而动名词可以有其逻辑主语there(there be结构)，因此A. there being是正确答案。

D．there going to be是缺少谓语的一般将来时，不是动名词结构，注意区别。

62. The meeting was put off because we __________ a meeting without John.A. objected havingB. were objected to havingC. objected to haveD. objected to having[译文]我们反对在约翰缺席的情况下开会，因此会议延期了。
