There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1People today are still talking about the generation gap(代沟(dài ɡōu)). Some parents complain that their children do not show them proper respect, while children complain that their parents do not understand them at all. What has gone wrong? Why has the generation gap appeared?One important cause is that young people want tostyle. In more traditional societies, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to many people that their parents like, and often to continue the family occupation.Parents often expect their children to do better than they do, to find better jobs, to make more money, and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, however, the high wishes that parents place on their children are another cause of the generation gap.Finally, the high speed of social changes deepens the gap. In a traditionalculture, people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society today the knowledge of lifetime may be out of use overnight(隔夜(gé〃yè)).36. According to the passage, children today expect their parents to_________.A) give them more independenceB) choose a good job for themC)D) make more money37. Parents often hope that their children will ________.A) make as much money as they doB) be more successful than they areC) choose jobs according to their own willD) avoid doing what their parents can’t do38. The generation gap has become wider than before because of ________.A) the increasing dependence of children on parentsB) the influence of traditional culture on childrenC) the rapid changes of modern societyD) the missing of lifelong occupation39. In today’s society, the knowledge of a lifetime _________.A) is still very much valuedB) becomes out of date quicklyC) is essential for continuing family occupationD) helps the young generation to find a better job40. A proper title for this passage would be ____________.A) Parents’ Viewpoints On Generation GapB) Relationship Between Family MembersC) Generation Gap Between the Young and the OldD) Difference Between Traditional Culture and Modern KnowledgeTask 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.For some employers, the policy of lifelong employment is particularly important because it means that they can put money and effort into their staff(职员(zhíyuán))training and make them loyal to the company. Whatthey do is to select young people who have potential(潜能)and who can be trained. They then give the young people the kinds of skills that will make them suitable employees for the company. In other words, they adjust their training to their particular needs.One recently employed graduate says that she is receiving a great deal ofvaluable training from the company. “This means that I will be a loyal employee,” she says, “And it also means that the company will want to keep me. I am an important investment for them. So the policy is a good onebec ause it benefits both the employer and the employee.”Recently, however, attitudes towards lifelong employment are beginning to change. Employees are slowly beginning to accept the idea that lifelong employment is not always in their best interest and that changing firms can have career advantages.41. The purpose of lifelong employment is to __________.A) adjust the needs of the company to its employeesB) make employees loyal to their companyC) select the best skilled young employeesD) keep the skilled staff satisfied42. By training its employees, a company can make them _________.A) do their work more easilyB) more interested in their workC) willing to invest money into the countryD) posses the necessary qualities for the job43. Talking about the training she has received, a recently employed graduate has the view that _________.A) it is still well-received by all the staff members todayB) it is valuable to the employer and the employeesC) it is helpful for attracting young employeesD) it is both useful and interesting44. Attitudes towards lifelong employment are changing because _________.A) job changes have career advantages.B) it’s boring to work in only one company.C) only the employer benefits from such employment.D) stable employment opportunities45. The passage is mainly about ___________.A) lifelong training of employeesB) policies of lifelong employmentC) attitudes towards lifelong employmentD) employers’ interest in lifelong employment答案(dáàn):DBCAAABCDATask 3【根据(gēnjù)短文填词,三字以内】Directions: The following is an advertisement. After reading it, you should complete the information by filling in the blanks marker 46 to 50 in not more than 3 words in the table below.Over a million people visit Hawaii(夏威夷)each year because of its beautiful weather and wonderful scenery(景色(jǐngsè)). The Hawaiian islands have very mild temperatures. For example, August, the hottest month, average 78.4oF, while February, the coldest month, averages 71.9oF.

Climate Change Poses Major Risks for Unprepared CitiesA new examination of urban policies has been carried out recently by Patricia Romero Lankao.She is a sociologist specializing in climate change and 51 development.She warns that many of the world’s fast-growing urban areas,especially in developing countries.will likely suffer from the 52 of changing climate.Her work also concludes that most cities are failing to 53 emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.These gases are known to affect the atmosphere."Climate change is a deeply local issue and poses profound 54 to the growing cities of the world,” says RomeroLankao. ”But too few cities are developing effective strategies to protect their residents."Cities are 55 sources of greenhouse gases.And urban populations are likely to be among those most severely affected by future climate change. Lankao’s findings highlight ways in which city-residents are particularly vulnerable, and suggest policy interventions that could offer immediate and longer-term 56 .The locations and dense construction patterns of cities often place their populations at greater 57 for natural disasters. Potential threats associated with climate include storm surges and prolonged hot weather. Storm surges can flood coastal areas and prolonged hot weather can heat 58 paved cities more than surrounding areas.The impacts of such natural events can be more 59 in an urban environment.For example,a prolonged heat wave can increase existing levels of air pollution,causing widespread health problems.Poorer neighborhoods that may 60 basic facilities such as drinking water or a dependable network of roads,are especially vulnerable to natural disasters.Many residents in poorer countries live in substandard housing 61 access to reliable drinking water,roads and basic services.Local governments, therefore ,should take measures to 62 their residents.”Unfortunately,they tend to move towards rhetoric 63 meaningful responses, Romero Lankao writes, ” They don’t impose constructi on standards that could reduce heating and air conditioning 64 . They don't emphasize mass transit and reduce automobile use. In fact, many local governments are taking a hands—off approach.” 65 , she urges them to change their idle policies and to take st rong steps to prevent the harmful effects of climate change on cities51.A urban B industrial C economic D rural52.A occasions B impacts C routines D connections53.A reduce B increase C study D measure54.A threats B interests C implications D differences55.A major B repeatable C doubeful D useful56.A signs B benefits C chances D planes57.A cost B mornent C risk D speed58.A locally B heavily C suddenly D mildly59.A standard B meaningful C serious D friendly60.A provide B lack C update D improve61.A with B without C in D on62.A identify B educate C protect D evaluate63.A less than B rather than C more than D better than64.A needs B wastes C areas D resources65.A Still B However C Moreover D Thus。

It was carrying 2207 people,but it had taken on enough lifeboats for only 1178 people. When the passengers tried to leave the ship,only 651 of them were able to get into lifeboats and 1502 people lost their lives.Throughout the whole tragedy,the California was only ten miles away. Its officers were close enough to see the Titanic,but they did not understand the situation. They never received the Titanic's call for help,and they did not come to the rescue until too late.First of all,nobody had prepared for such a tragedy. Nobody had believed that the Titanic could sink. The steamship company had thought that its ship would be completely safe in all situations. They followed an old rule for the number of lifeboats,so they had supplied lifeboats for only half the people. And the passengers had not practiced lifeboat drills before the accident and they did not believe they were in danger.The ship had already received six ice warnings on its radio when it struck the iceberg. But it had not changed its direction or its speed. It was impossible to change directionquickly enough when the iceberg came in sight. When the Titanic hit the iceberg,the radio officer on the California had just gone to bed. He had tried to warn the officers on the Titanic about the ice before he went to bed,but the officers had not listened.转自环球网校转自环球网校转自环球网校After this accident,ocean travel change. Now there are always enough lifeboats for everybody. Ships do not go so far north in winter,and they watch carefully for ice. Radio officers work 24 hours a day.

请根据短文内容,为每题确定1个最佳选项。
第一篇 Cell Phones: Hang Up or Keep Talking?Millions of people are using cell phones today. In many places it is actually considered unusualnot to use one. In many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people. They findthat the phones are more than a means of communication —having a mobile phone showsthat they are cool and connected.The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professionals worried.Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems fromthe use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobilephone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that thereis no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.On the other hand, why do some medical studies show changes in the brain cells of somepeople who use mobile phones? Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can bedetected with modern scanning(扫描)equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had toretire at a young age because of serio us memory loss. He couldn’t remember even simple tasks.He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone forabout six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctorblamed his mobi le phone use, but his employer’s doctor didn’t agree.What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? Theanswer is radiation. High-techmachines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phonecompanies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worryabout.As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it’s best to use mobile phonesless often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phoneonly when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially inemergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad foryour health. So for now, it’s wise not to use your mobile phone too often.31.People buy cell phones for the following reasons EXCEPT thatA.they’re popular.B.they’re cheap.C.they’re useful.D.they’re convenient.32.The word “detected” in paragraph 3 could be best replaced byA.cured.B.removed.C.discovered.D.caused.33.The salesman retired young becauseA.he disliked using mobile phones.B.he couldn’t remember simple tasks.C.he was tired of talking on his mobile phone.D.his employer’s doctor persuaded him to.34.On the safety issue of mobile phones, the manufacturingcompaniesA.deny the existence of mobile phone radiation.B.develop new technology to reduce mobile phone radiation.C.try to prove that mobile phones are not harmful to health.D.hold that the amount of radiation is too small to worry about.35.The writ er’s purpose of writing this article is to advise peopleA.to use mobile phones less often.B.to buy mobile phones.C.to update regular phones.D.to stop using mobile phones.第二篇 Excessive Demands on Young PeopleBeing able to multitask is hailed by most people as a welcome skill, but not according to a recentstudy which claims that young people between the ages of eight and eighteen of the so-calledGeneration M are spending a considerable amount of their time in fruitless efforts as theymultitask. It argues that, in fact, these young people are frittering(浪费) away as much as halfof their time as they would if they performed the very same tasks one after the other.Some young people are using an ever larger number of electronic devices as they study. At thesame time they are working, young adults are also surfing on the Internet, or sending outemails to their friends, and/or answering the telephone and listening to music on their iPods oron another computer. As some new device comes along, it is also added to the list rather thanreplacing one of the existing devices.Other research has indicated that this multitasking is even affecting the way families themselvesfunction as young peopleare too wrapped up in(沉湎于)their own isolated worlds to interactwith the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enterthe house nor can they eat at the family table.All this electronic wizardry(魔力)is supposedly also seriously affecting young people’sperformance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their opinions of theimpact of modern gadgets(小装置)on their performance of tasks, the great majority ofyoung people gave a favorable response.The response from the academic and business worlds was not quite as positive. The formerfeel that multitasking with electronic gadgets by children affects later development of studyskills, resulting in a decline in the quality of writing, for example, because of the lack ofconcentration on task completion. They feel that many undergraduates now urgently needremedial(补救的)help with study skills. Similarly, employers feel that young people entering theworkforce need to be taught all over again, as they have become skilled.While all this may be true, it must be borne in mind that more and more is expected of youngpeople nowadays; in fact, too much. Praise rather than criticism is due in respect of the waytoday’s youth are able to cope despite what the older generation throw at them.36.What is probably true about the multitasking Generation M?A.They feel they are more efficient than others.B.They waste more time than they should spend.C.They put more energy on important tasks.D.They need to improve their analytical skills.37.With the introduction of new gadgets, what happens tothe Generation M’s present e-devices?A.They give way to the latest.B.They are quickly put aside.C.They are sold to their friends.D.They become part of their collection.38.Multitasking makes the Generation MA.feel lonely and pitiful.B.selfish and aggressive.C.distant to their family.D.silent and sad.39.The academics feel that many undergraduates badly need toA.adjust their social attitudes.B.seek psychological assistance.C.improve their study skills.D.take more business courses.40.What attitude should the older generation adopt towards the multitasking youth?A.Critical.B.Thankful.C.Negative.D.Supportive.第三篇 Three Ways to Become More CreativeMost people believe they don’t have much imagination. They are wrong. Everyone hasimagination, but most of us, once we become adults, forget how to access it. Creativity isn’talways connected with great works of art or ideas. People at work and in their free timeroutinely think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve, a trickyquestion to answer or you just want to expand your mind! Here are three techniques tohelpyou.This technique involves taking unrelated ideas and trying to find links between them. First,think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image,word, idea or object, for example, a candle. Write down all the ideas/words associated withcandles: light, fire, matches, wax, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The nextstage is to relate the ideas to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend anoriginal present; you could buy him tickets to a match or take him out for the night.Imagine that normal limitations don’t exist. You have as much time/space/money, etc. as youwant. Think about your goal and the new possibilities. If, for example, your goal is to learn toski(滑雪), you can now practice skiing every day of your life (because you have the time andthe money). Now adapt this to reality. Maybe you can practice skiing every day in December, orevery Monday in January.Look at the situation from a different point of view. Good negotiators(谈判者)use thistechnique in business, and so do writers. Fiction writers often imagine they are the charactersin their books. They ask questions: what does this character want? Why can’t she ge t it? Whatchanges must she make to get what she wants? What does she dream about? If your goalinvolves other people, put yourself “in their shoes”. The best fishermen think like fish!41.According to the passage, when we become adults, ______A.we can still learn to be more creative.B.most of us are no longer creative.C.we are not as imaginative as children.D.we are unwilling to be creative.42.According to the first technique, if you need to solve a problem, ______A.you could find an image and try to link it with the problem.B.you should link it with candles.C.you have to think of buying a present for a friend.D.you should link it with as many words as possible.43.The second technique suggests that you just imagineA.setting a goal is as simple as skiing.B.you have every resource to achieve your goal.C.new possibilities will soon appear.D.December and January are the best months for skiing.44.The phrase “put yourself ‘in their shoes’” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning toA.dress yourself like them.B.do as they ask you to.C.think as they would.D.put on their shoes.45.We learn from the third technique that a good salesman should ask himself:A.what do I usually do?B.what did my boss tell me to do?C.what are my customers’ needs?D.how should I sell my products?第5部分:补全短文(第46~50题,每题2分,共10分)下面的短文有5处空白,短文后有6个句子,其中5个取自短文,请根据短文内容将其分别放回原有位置,以恢复文章面貌。

The Race into SpaceAmerican millionaire Dennis Tito will always be famous.He was the first tourist in space."I spent sixty years on Earth and eight days in space and from my viewpoint,it was two separate lives,"Tito explained.He loved his time in space."Being in space and looking back at earth is one of the most rewarding experiences a human being can have."This kind of experience isn't cheap.It cost $ 20 million.However,Tito achieved his dream.so he was happy."For me it was a life dream.It was a dream that began when I didn,t have any money,"he told reporters.On 30 April 2002,Mark Shuttleworth became the world's second space tourist.Shuttleworth is a South African businessman.At the age of twenty-eight.he also paid $ 20 million for the eightday trip.Both Tito and Shuttleworth bought their tickets from a company called Space Adventures.The company has around 100 people already on their waiting list for flights into space.The spaceship to take them doesn't exist yet.Many of the customdrs are people who like adventure.They are the kind of people who also want to climb Mount Qomolangma.Other customers are people who love space.However,these people are worried.Because it's so expensive,only very rich people can go into space.They want space travel to be available to more people.That day may soon be here.Inter Orbital Systems(IOS)plans to send up to four tourists a week into space.The tours will depart from an island in Tonga.The company promises a package that includes forty-five days of astronaut training in Russia and California,seven days in space,and a vacation in Tonga.for $2 million.However,space flight is still very dangerous.Bill Readdy is NASA's deputy assistant administrator for space flight.He says that the chances of dying are about 1 in 500.Because of this it may take time before space tourism really takes off.You might be able to go up,but will you come down?16.Dennis Tito was the first tourist in space.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned17.Mark Shuttleworth is an engineer from the United States.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned18.Both Tito and Shuttleworth have climbed Mount Qomolangma.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned19.Space Adventures has about 100 customers waiting for their travel into space.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned20.Space Adventures already has a spaceship.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned21.IOS will send its tourists into space from Tonga.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned22.Bill Readdy thinks space flight is very dangerous.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned第三部分:概括大意与完成句子(第23-30题,每题1分,共8分)下面的短文后有2项测试任务:(1)第23-26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第2-5段每段选择1个最佳标题;(2)第27-30题要求从所给的6个选项中为每个句子确定1个最佳选项。
Waste Not,Want Not1 Bob and Clara Darlington,who own and run a farm in the North of England,have alwayslooked for new ways of making money out of the produce they grow.Their SUCCESS began when theyestablished a shop on their farm,so that people could come and buy fresh vegetables directly fromthem.2 The business was an immediate SUCCESS,and soon scored top marks in a competition set upby the Farm Retail Association to find the best farm shop in the country.The Association's inspectorsfound the Darlingtons'shop offered excellent service and value for money as well as quality fruit andvegetable.3 Clara Darlington is a trained chef and,in addition to a range of home-grown foods andother local produce,she began offering a variety of prepared meals which she had made herself inthe farmhouse kitchen.A small cafe alongside the farm shop was soon added,with everything thatvisitors could taste on the menu also being for sale in the shop.4 Clara admits that starting the business was expensive,and she has worked very hard,butmaintains that if the product is good,the public recognize this and buy it."I aim to offer the highestquality to our customers,whether they come in for a loaf of bread,or take a whole dinner-partymenu.I take it as a compliment(恭维)if people take home one of my dishes to serve to their family and friends and get away with pretending they made it themselves."5 So it was that the couple realized that they had a surplus of misshapen or damaged vegetables grown on the farm which were unsuitable for selling in the shop.Clara,not wishing to see themget thrown away,decided to turn them into soup.6 The soup met with the immediate approval of customers to the shop and Clara now producesten different varieties.She spent much of the summer traveling up and down to London by rail,doing presentations of the soups.As a result,they are now served in first-class railway restaurant carsbelonging to three companies as well as being stocked by a number of high-class London stores.23.Paragraph 2_______________.24.Paragraph 3________________.25.Paragraph 4______________.26.Paragraph 5____________.A.Time well spent is rewardedB.Professional recognition is obtainedC.A necessary alternative to farmingD.Professional skills are exploitedE.Continuing investment in high standardsF.Ensuring that nothing gets wasted27.Bob an Clara Darlington established a shop to____________.28.Apart from quality fruit and vegetables,the couple____________.29.Instead of throwing the damaged vegetables away,the couple__________.30.Clara spent much of the summer going to London to____________.A.sell fresh vegetablesB.sell as much as possibleC.offer a variety of prepared mealsD.turn them into soupE.fill a gap in the marketF.promote her soups第四部分:阅读理解(第31-45题,每题3分,共45分)下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题。
