The all-age private Internet club that began as a college student hangout has become the technology industry’s hottest ticket.Facebook, which started out offering simple Web profile pages for users to update personal details and link to their friends, has since late May provided an easy way to enhance profiles with growing menu of 1,400 applications from virtual horoscopes to music video players.Membership has exploded to over 29 million active users, up one million users in just the past week and five million from six weeks ago. It’s adding more than 150,000 member a day, up from its pace of 100,000 six weeks ago, Facebook says.Facebook has become the central way many users keep track of Web sites they use every day. More importantly, it’s a way to keep up with what friends are doing, says Chief Technology Officer Adam Angelo, a high school classmate of Zuckerberg.Far b igger rival MySpace has difficulty striking a balance between sharing personal data and not revealing “too much information”. Many Facebook users post their mobile phone numbers, political affiliations or changes in dating status.“Facebook is not open the way the Web is open, Users share all kinds of information on the site they would never share on the Web,” Angelo, 22, says. “We get users to reveal more information because we protect users’ privacy.One protest group, called “Facebook Should Be Students ONLY”, with 20,000 members, is magnet from random discontent.“Facebook should most definitely be ONLY students,” Katerina Laurel, 15, of Kansas City, Kansas, writes in Web shorthand. “Our CHOIR teacher has a Face book membership.”Laurel’s solution is to use the site’s privacy controls to exclude the teachers/principals/dens/choir directors in her life. “I can just block them from my site if I don’t want them to see any of my profile.” She says.（Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.）【1】What is Facebook?_________________________________________________________________.【2】How many active uses have Facebook had till now?_____________________________________________________________________【3】The reason why Facebook users share all kinds of information on the site they would never share on the Web is that________________________________________【4】It can be inferred that if you don’t want your profile exposed to strangers, you can_____________________________________________________________________4.Direction: Complete the following sentences using the given verbs in their proper forms.【1】A new hospital ___________ (build) in this area now.【2】The life he has been used to __________ (change) greatly soon.【3】Those naughty boys _________ (always get) into trouble.

Note that there is one word more than you need.Body language refers to various forms of non-verbal communication, which in a person may reveal（透露）clues as to some unspoken intention or feeling through their physical behaviors. These ___21___ can include gestures, facial expressions, and eye movements. Body language can also vary（不同）depending on the culture. There are a set of commonly ___22___ gestures but many are influenced by our social settings. Although this article ___23___ on interpretations（解释）of human body language, also animals use body language as a communication mechanism（机制）. Body language is typically subconscious（潜意识的）behavior, and is therefore ___24___ to be different from sign language, which is a___25___ conscious（有意识的）and intentional（故意的）act of communication.Body language may provide ___26___ as to the attitude or state of mind of a person. For example, it may indicate aggression, ___27___, boredom, a relaxed state, pleasure and amusement. However, the value of body language in recognizing cheat has been called into question.Body language is very important to communication and relationships.

Body language signals happen on both a conscious and subconscious level.Reading ComprehensionSection AAlmost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. ___31___, we are given to believe, is a right. ___32___ for a good many people in the world, in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury（奢侈）, something wonderful but ___33___ to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion（错觉）, a false idea created by ___34___ and advertisers hoping to sell their products.The ___35___ choice gives birth to anxiety（焦虑）in people’s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee p otis not exactly ___36___. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of ___37___ in many people, ending in the shopper ___38___ up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.ADo you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're “hot”. That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues ( 自言自语) as: “Get up, John! You'll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If our energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam (鼓起干劲) and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.46. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably______.A. he is a lazy personB. he refuses to follow his own energy cycleC. he is not sure when his energy is lowD. he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening47. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?A. Unawareness of energy cycles.B. Familiar monologues.C. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.D. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.48. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ______.A. help to keep your energy for the day’s workB. help you to control your temper early in the dayC. enable you to concentrate on your routine workD. keep your energy cycle under control all dayBHere is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business in some countries.In BrazilBrazilians are warm and friendly. They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder. People often greet each other (particularly women) with light cheek kisses. Schedules tend to be flexible, with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned. But to be safe, be on time. Meals can stretch for hours—there’s no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil. Lunches also can start in the mid to late afternoon. Brazilians are social, preferring face-to-face communication over mails or phone calls.In SingaporeSingaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small, polite bow. Business cards should be offered and received with two hands. Arriving late is considered disrespectful. So be on time. Efficiency(效率) is the goal, so meetings and dealings often are fast-paced. Singaporeans are direct in their discussions, even when the subject is about money. Rank is important and authority is respected. This determines both people react in meetings. For example, people avoid disagreeing outright with someone with a higher rank.In the United Arab EmiratesIn the UAE, status (地位) is important, so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their titles. The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere. So, do not pull away the handshake. Women should cover themselves when it comes to dress. Men also tend to be covered from neck to elbows(肘部) and down to the knees. People do not avoid entertaining in their homes, but they also hold business meals at restaurants. Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided. When meetings are one-to-one, if your host offers you coffee, you should refuse. It might seem odd, but it is a cultural tradition. Coffee should only be accepted if it is always set out or presented.In SwitzerlandThe Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name. They also are respectful of private lives. You should be careful not to ask about personal topics. Punctuality (守时) is vital, something that comes from a deep respect for others’ time. Arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe. They also have clear structure in their companies. Higher-ups make the final decisions, even if others might disagree. Neat, clean dress is expected. The Swiss follow formal table manners. They also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows off the table. It is polite to finish the food on your plate.49. The passage is mainly about _____.A. communication typesB. the workplace atmosphereC. customs and social mannersD. living conditions and standards50. Why do Singaporeans avoid arguing with their boss?A. They put efficiency in the fist place.B. They dislike face-to-face communication.C. They want to finish meetings as quickly as possible.D. They are supposed to obey the person of a higher rank.51. In the UAE, when should you refuse the coffee if it is offered?A. When greeting seniors.B. When meeting the host alone.C. When attending a presentation.D. When dining with business partners.52. In which country do people care about where to put their hands at the dinner table?A. In Brazil.B. In Singapore.C. In the United Arab Emirate.D. In Switzerland.CHAPPY to help or too selfish to share – some scientists wonder whether generosity（慷慨大方）lies in our upbringing or in our genes（基因）.In a social science experiment carried out in an Israeli children’s playroom, 136 children aged 3 and 4 years old were given six sets of colorful stickers. They were told：“You can keep all of the stick ers, or you can give some to another child you don’t know. He doesn’t have any stickers.”Researchers then asked the children to step into the playroom one at a time and watched how they behaved.About two thirds of the children chose to give one or more sets of stickers to an unknown child. The others refused to share. Researchers found that many of this second group of children had something in common: a variation（变异）in a gene known as A VPR1A. This gene is supposed to control a chemical in the brain responsible for social behavior. The genetic variant（变体）of this gene can make people a lot less willing to share.This study was published last month in the online scientific journal PLoS One. It suggested that children can be selfishless and genetics may play a role.But social scientists point out environmental influences from home, school and the wider world may play alarger role in creating good or bad habits. Studies using brain scans have shown that when someone is being generous or is described as generous, his or her brain will give off a kind of chemical. This chemical is linked to positive feelings.“If（parents）tell a kid he is a generous person, he is more likely to act generously again than if they buy him a toy,”said Nancy Eisenberg, an Arizona State University psychology professor, to The Wall Street Journal.Social scientists also Say that as people grow up and develop stronger ideas of morality（道德）and fairness, their generosity will increase.Referring to the Israeli study, Emmanuel College psychologist Joyce Benenson says to the Wall Street Journal, that even at 3 or 4 years old,“If you’ve got six packs of something, you know that giving away one isn’t really changing what you have.”Of the 136 children in the Israeli study, the largest group gave aw ay one sticker; the second largest group gave away none. Only twenty-two children gave away more than one sticker.53. According to the article, the experiment ______.A. studied more than 100 children aged between 13 and 14B. gathered all the children in a room to watch their behaviorC. found that one-third of the children were unwilling to shareD. asked the children to share stickers with their friends54. What was newly discovered by the experiment?A. A variation of a gene can influence people’s so cial behavior.B. More than half of the kids were considered to be selfish.C. Generous behavior can make a child feel good.D. Children are less generous than adults expect.55. What can we conclude from the article?A. Genes play a major role in deciding whether people are generous.B. As children grow, economical responsibility can stop them from sharing with others.C. Both genes and social environment influence whether people are generous.D. Parents could try giving toys to kids to encourage them to be generous.56. Who might be more generous according to the article?A. Those with an A VPR1A gene.B. Those growing up in rich families.C. These who receive college education.D. Those growing up in a sharing environment.Section CDirections：Choose from the sentences A~AC to complete the passage. There are two extra sentences which you do not need to use.A. I listened to it 20 times at least.B. That place made me what I am today.C. Community colleges have improved a lot these years.D. Those plays filled my head with expanded dreams.AB. Of course, I enjoyed the pleasure of eating French fries between classes.AC. So I sent my test results to Chabot, a community college in nearby Hayward, California, which accepted everyone and was free.I owe（归功于…）it all to my community collegeIn 1974, I graduated from Skyline High School in Oakland, California, an underachieving student with poor SAT scores. I couldn’t afford tuition（学费）for college anyway. ___57___.For thousands of commuting students like me, Chabot was our Harvard, offering course in physics, certified public accounting, foreign language, journalism and so on. Classmates included veterans（老兵）back from Vietnam, married women returning to school, middle-aged men wanting to improve their employment prospects and paychecks. We could get our general education requirements out of the way at Chabot---credits we could transfer to a university---which made those two years an invaluable head start.Classes I took at Chabot have rippled（起涟漪）through my professional pond. I produced the HBO mini-series John Adams with an outline format I learned from a pipe-smoking historian, James Coovelis, whose lectures were interesting. Mary Lou Fitzgerald’s“Studies in Shakespeare”taught me how the five-act structures of Richard Ⅲ, The Tempest, and Othello focused their themes.In Herb Kennedy’s“Drama in Performance,”I read plays like The Hot L Baltimore and Desire Under the Elms, then saw their productions. I got to see the plays he taught, through student rush tickets at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco and the Berkeley Repertory Theatre. ___58___ I got an A. Some hours I stayed in the huge library, where I first read the New York Times, frustrated by its lack of comics.If Chabot’s library still has its collection of vinyl records（黑胶唱片）, you will find my name repeatedly on the takeout slip of Jason Robards’ performance of the monologue（独白）of Eugene O’Neill. ___59___Chabot College is still in Hayward, though Mr. Coovelis, Ms. Fitzgerald, and Mr. Kennedy are no longer there.I drove past the campus a few years ago with one my kids and summed up my two years there this way:“___60___”Complete the following sentences, using the proper forms61. This film is worth __________（see）twice.62. _________（leave）it with me and I’ll see what I can do.63. We ________（hope）to catch the 9:30 train, but found it was gone.64. It is said that the bush fire was brought under control soon. Many houses have been destroyed but no lives __________（lose）so far.65. I ___________（walk）along the street looking for a place to park when the accident occurred.66. He __________（learn）English for eight years by the time he graduates from the university next year.The World Cup is an international football competition contested by the senior men’s national teams of the members of FIFA. The championship ___67___（award）every four years since 1930. The World Cup is the world’s most widely viewed sporting event. The next two World Cups ___68___（hold）Russia in 2018, and Qatar in 2022.When I came here, I heard those words,“cradle（摇篮）of leadership”. Well, when the bough（粗树枝）breaks, the cradle ___69___（fall）, and it has fallen here, it has fallen! Makers of men, creators of leaders, be careful what kind of leaders you are producing here. I can’t guarantee ___70___（say）that Charlie’s silence here today is right or wrong. I’m not a judge or jury（陪审团），but I have to remind you of the fact that he didn’t sell anybody out to buy his future. And that, my friends, is called integrity and courage. Now that’s the stuff leaders should be made of.Translation71. 在过去的几年里，上海发生了很大的变化。

Infact, non-verbal (非语言) communication takes up about 50% of what we really __28__, and body language is particularly important when we attempt to communicate __29__ cultures. Indeed, what is called body language is so much a part of us that it's actually often unnoticed.

Northern Europeans usually do not like having bodily contact even with friends, and certainly not with __32__. People from Latin American countries, __33__, touch each other quite a lot. Therefore, it's possible that in __34__, it may look like a Latino is __35__ a Norwegian all over the room. The Latino, trying to express friendship, will keep moving __36__.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long beforechildren start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.52. According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?A.Those who often take exercise.B. Those who often watch television.C.Those who often have meals at home.D. Those who often walk to school.53. The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because _________.A.their parents often cook meals for themB. they are too busy to go out and playC. they can' t choose what to eatD. there are too many fast food shops around54. The word “steering” underlined in the last sentence most probably means _______.A. forcingB. guidingC. drivingD. moving55. The main purpose of the text is to _________.A. tell a storyB. provide factsC. give adviceD. compare opinions(B)Most likely, you aren’t the family breadwinner. But doing a small job or getting a weekly allowance(零花钱) would put some money in your pocket. For kids and grown-ups alike, money is easy to spend. If you aren’t careful enough, it can be going in no time.Being responsible with your money is an important skill to learn — and the sooner youstart the better. Whether you are tracking your spending or saving for something special, creating a budget can help you deal with your expenses and plan for the future. All you need are paper and a pencil — and some self-control.First, take a look at our sample monthly budget. Then, use a separate sheet of paper to plan your own. In the first two columns (栏), list your sources of income and how much you expect to earn from them. In the third and fourth columns, list what you expect to spend your money on and the amount.The left-hand total should be more than or equal to the right-hand total. If it is, you have an effective budget.Budgets are not complex, but sticking to them can be tough. When planning your budget, be realistic about your expens es. If you know that you drop $18 at a movie, don’t write $12 in that space simply because you wish you were spending less.If you are eyeing a big purchase, such as a $150 skateboard, spend less and save more until you have the total amount. No matter how attractive it may be, avoid spending your savings. One day, you will thank yourself! 56. Who is the passage written for?A. Children.B. Parents.C. Breadwinners.D. Bank managers. 57. The purpose of making a budget is to help people _________.A. learn to be realisticB. increase their savingC. manage their money wellD. test their power-control 58. What should people do when planning a budget? A. Fill in the expenses as they really are.B. Avoid spending money on expensive things. Monthly IncomeAmount Monthly Expense Amount Allowance$20.00. Snacks $20.00 Money earned selling drinks$25.00 Music downloads $12.00 Money earned babysitting$12.50.

(C) An old German satellite fell to Earth on Saturday after orbiting in space for more than a decade, but officials do not yet know where it fell. "There is currently no confirmation if pieces of debris （碎片） have reached Earth's surface," German aerospace officials said in a statement.While the21-year-old satellite broke apart as it re-entered Earth’s atmosphere, German aerospace officials estimated that up to 30 pieces totaling 1.9 tons could reach the surface of the planet.The satellite, which weighs 5,348 pounds, was launched into orbit in June 1990 to study X-ray radiation from stars and black holes. The satellite was originally designed for an 19-month mission, but it continued to work for far longer than its projected lifetime. In 1998, Monthly Income Amount Monthly Expenses Amount Allowance $20.00 Money earned walking dogs $20.00 Bus fares$40.00 Movies $28.00 Total$60.00 Total $48.00 Monthly IncomeAmount Monthly Expenses Amount Allowance$20.00 Movies $30.00 Money earned washing cars$10.00 Bus fares $10.00 Total$30.00 Total $40.00 Monthly IncomeAmount Monthly Expenses Amount Allowance$27.50 Money earned selling drinks $22.00 Money earned$22.50 Birthday gifts $28.00 Total$50.00 Total $50.00 Monthly IncomeAmount Monthly Expenses Amount Allowance$26.00 Radio rentals $22.00 Money earned doing yard work$24.00 Birthday gifts $28.00 Total $50.00Total $50.00some parts of the satellite failed and it retired in 1999. It was initially estimated that the German satellite could fall to Earth in November. Even in the last days, the satellite still circled the planet every 90 minutes, making it hard to predict where on Earth it would eventually come down. But increased solar activity caused the satellite’s orbit to decay（衰退）faster than originally expected.The old German satellite was the second one to fall uncontrolled from space within a 30-dayperiod. On Sept. 24, a 6.5-ton American climate satellite fell into the Pacific Ocean. It was the largest satellite to falluncontrolled from orbit since 1979.The German satellite’s fall from space, and the American satellite before it, cause d the world to pay much attention to the growing problem of debris in space. There are fears that they would hit a populated area and cause damage or kill people.60. The report was most probably written in _________A. SeptemberB. OctoberC. NovemberD. December61. Compared to the American climate satellite, the German satellite__________A. was largerB. was heavierC. was smallerD. was faster62. Which of the following may influence a satellite’s travel in space?A. Solar activity.B. Earth’s atmosphere.C. Climate change on Earth.D. Radiation from black holes.63. What will probably be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A. Possibilities of controlling a satellite’s fall.B. Possibilities of delaying a satellite’s fall.C. Worries about uncontrolled satellites.D. Worries about space rubbish第II卷VI.Translation (15 points)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.64.缺乏足够的蛋白质会使头发失去美丽的光泽。

Some children think that they go to school just to learn their mother tongue, English and other foreign langugaes, history, science, 19 and a few other 20 . But why do they learn these things? Are these the only things they should learn at school?Actually children go to school to 21 themselves for the time when they will be grown up and will have to 22 themselves.They learntheir own language 23 they will be able to 24 with people in foreign countries, make friends with them and learn 25 about their culture and history. They learn mathematics in order to be able to measure the things around them and calculate sums.26 helps them understand something about the world around them and history teaches them about the past and people.

One?With a phone card you can make up to 200 calls without any change at all.1. What do you do with it?Go to telephone boxmarket“phone card”. Put in your card to start, make your call and when you've finished, a screen tells you how much is left on your card.It costs no extra for the cards, and the calls cost 10p per unit, the same as any other pay phone call.You can buy them in units of 10, 20, 40, 100 or 200.2. Now appearing in a shop near you.Near each card phone place you'll find a shop where you can buy one. They're at bus, train and city tube stations(地铁站).At many universities, hospitals and clubs, restaurants and gas stations on the highway and shopping centers.At airports and seaports.3. No more broken pay phones.Most broken pay phones are like that because they've been damaged. There are no coins in a card phone to excite thieves' interest in it. So you're not probably to find a broken one.Get a phone card yourself and try it out. Or get a bigger wallet.36. The passage is most probably _______.A. a warningB. a noticeC. an advertisementD. an announcement37. There are three sections in the passage. Which one do you think is about why phone cards are good?A. section 1.B. section 2.C. section 3.D. section 1,2,3.38. Which statement of the following is right by inference(推测)?A. Using a phone card will cost you less money than pay phone call.B. Phone cards are easier to carry.C. If a thief steals your phone card, he can't use it any more.D. When you finish your call, take out your card first and then you will see how many calls you can still make.(B)You must have seen an oil lamp before. But do you know how it works?One end of the lamp wick(灯芯) is immersed(把……浸入……之中) in oil and the other end is not immersed. When you light the end which is not immersed, it will burst into flame. This is because the oil is able to rise up the lamp wick thus helping it to burn.In the same way, if you immerse the end of a piece of chalk into a glass of water, the water will soon climb up the chalk making it wet.If a piece of ordinary glass tubing is heated in a gas flame until it becomes soft,it can be pull into a tube of a very small hole. Immerse the tube into water or any other liquid which wets glass, you will find that the liquid rises to a height of several centimeters. This is known as capillary action. The liquid rises because there is an attractive force between the liquid and the glass. The attractive force depends on the diameter of the tube and the type of liquid used.39. Why can an oil lamp work?A. Because there is oil.B. Because there is oil climbing up the wick.C. Because the other end is immersed.D. Because the wet end is lighted.40. The passage mentions all the things except_______ .A. oilB. waterC. chalkD. paper41. The last sentence means that _______ .A. the thinner the diameter, the greater the attractive forceB. the diameter of the tube and the kind of the liquid decide the greatness of the forceC. the thinner the diameter, the smaller the attractive forceD. oil climbs up higher than water42. The liquid rises up a tube because _______ .A. the tube is thinB. the glass has an attractive forceC. the liquid tends to rise upD. both glass and liquid act on each other43. The passage mainly talks about _______ .A. an oil lampB. an ordinary tubingC. liquid climbing up thingsD. capillary action(C)America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65.The aging of the population will affect American society in manyways-education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the growing of America has made us a very different society-one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.A person's age no longer tells you anything about his \ her social position, marriage or health. There's no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn't as strong as it used to be. It doesn't surprise us to hear of a29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.Many people say, “I am much younger than my mother-or my father-was at my age.” No one says, “Act your age” any more. We've stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.44. It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America _______.A. has made people feel youngerB. has changed people's social positionC. has changed people's understanding of ageD. has slowed down the country's social development45. The underlined word 'one' refers to _______ .A. a societyB. AmericaC. a placeD. population46. “Act your age” means people should _______ .A. be active when they are oldB. do the right thing at the right ageC. show respect for their parents young or oldD. take more physical exercise suitable to their age47. If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager ofa big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it _______ .A. normalB. wonderfulC. unbelievableD. unreasonable(D)If you are planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors. Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in. Also, the best places to live are not always home to the best schools. Finally, many schools specialize indifferent areas of study. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science and technology-related fields of study. However, if you want to study oceanography(海洋学), your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean.Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country. So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in.California is a nice state. Northern California specifically has very good weather. Los Angeles in Southern California is another story though. Life in Los Angeles is full of excitement and fast,and sometimes dangerous. As for me, I enjoy the time I spent in Massachusetts, Virginia and Maryland and these states have a lot of history and culture. The weather is not as perfect as California, but it is still quite nice. My favorite area of America is the Mid-west. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. In addition, there are many good universities there.Also, you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won't like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature and peace and quiet? Then you probably should stay away from America'slarge cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decide, put some thought into it. The place you live could be the difference between a great study-abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth.48. From the first paragraph we can conclude (得出结论)that in the USA _______.A. all colleges and universities lie in big citiesB. all colleges and universities lie in beautiful placesC. famous colleges and universities lie in nice placesD. famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places49. What should be considered first if you want to study in the USA?A. The climate.B. The scenery.C. The study condition.D. The living condition.50. If you study in Middle America, you can probably _______ .A. find the best universitiesB. feel the real character of the nationC. meet the most famous professors thereD. face more difficulties(E)My mother is a diligent and kind woman. She is very busy from morning till night. As a teacher, she works hard.51 Both my brother and I love her dearly as she loves us.My mother has been teaching math at a middle school in my hometown. She goes to work early in the morning and does not return home until late in the afternoon. 52 She treats them with patience and teaches them well. For her excellent quality and very good teaching results, she has been elected as a model teacher several times.53 Every day, when she comes back home from work, she sets about doing housework, sweeping the living room and bedrooms or cleaning the furniture, and putting everything in good order. She seems to be busy all the time. As she has been very busy working every day, shelooks older than her age. But she looks as cheerful and happy as ever. Mother never buys expensive dresses for herself, but she often buys some inexpensive but high quality clothes for us. 54 She just eats a plain meal outside when she is too busy to cook herself. She lives a busy yet simple life, without any complaints.Often she says to us, “work while you work, and play while you play. That is the way to be happy and gay. If you do not work, you will become lazy and be of no use to society”. What a piece of good advice this is! 55 This advice of hers will always serve as a guide to my behavior. My mother is great indeed, and I always feel proud of her.A. She enjoys listening to classic music.B. As a mother, she takes good care of us and gives us every comfort.C. She loves her students and cares for them.D. She never goes to expensive restaurants to enjoy meals.E. My mother is hard-working and never wastes money.F. I never forget it and always bear it in my mind.G. Can you tell us something about your mother?V.写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)When I was in high school, most of my friend had bicycles. I hoped Icould also have it. One day I saw a second-hand bicycle, that was onlyone hundred yuan. I asked my father the money. But he said couldonly give me half of the money. He should find the other half myself. SoI went to sell newspapers after the school. My father was pleased if Ishowed him the money a month after.

He asked his friends and relatives to help him. But nobody could find the stamp. It made Victor very sad.“Don’t worry. Never give up,” his father said to him. “If you have enough patience, you’ll find it one day.”“I hope so,” Victor said.Victor also liked writing. He had a penfriend in France. They wrote to each other every month. Victor’s penfriend, Phillip, usually used new stamps to send letters. Sometimes, his mother gave him stamps to use. Once Phillip’s mother gave him a big, green stamp. It looked old. When Victor received the letter, he was very surprised. On the envelope, he looked carefully at the stamp. It was the 1974 special edition stamp. Victor was so happy. He told his sister, his mother and hisfather.“ You see,” his father said. “ You did find your stamp.

But David and Rosy didn’t do so. They went to buy some flight insurance instead. Immediately after they put a two-pound note into a machine, their policy (保险单) came out.“Who would get the money if the plane crashed, I wonder?” asked Rosy. “My mother, of course,” her husband replied. “We should post the policy to her.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.AA child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or giving him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises(出现) from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar(奇怪的) that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend.No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.46. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when parents ___________________________ .A. repeat it without any changeB. treat it as a jokeC. make some changesD. set it in the present47. According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story isA. in a realistic settingB. heard for the first timeC. repeated too oftenD. told in a different way48. The advantage for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it__________________________ .A. makes them less fearfulB. develops their power of memoryC. makes them believe the storiesD. encourages them not to have strange beliefs49. The author mentions flying on sticks and kissing telephones to suggest that ________________________ .A. fairy stories are still being made upB. there is misunderstanding about fairy talesC. people try to modernize old fairy storiesD. there is more concern for children's fears nowadaysBJoan Chen is famous both in China, where she grew up, and in the United States, where she now lives. How did Joan become a famous actress in two countries? It's an interesting story.Joan Chen was born in Shanghai in 1961. When she was 14, some people from a film studio(制片厂）came to her school and chose her to study at the studio. She was happy about this chance, but mainly she liked the idea of getting out of school. Soon, however she discovered that she really liked acting. At age 18, she won the Golden Rooster, China's top film prize.In the late 1970s, Joan's parents, who were doctors, moved to the United States. Joan joined them when she was 20 and went to college there. Her parents hoped she would study medicine. Instead, she majored in film and later looked for work as an actress. To work in the United States, Joan had to start all over again. She told Hollywood that she was an actress in China, but she only got some small parts in TV shows.One day Joan went to speak to a director who was making a movie called Tai-pan. The interview didn't go well. As she walked away, a man in a car noticed her. The man was Dino DeLaurntiis, the film's producer. He immediately offered her a leading part. A year later, she starred in Bernardo Bertolucci's The Last Emperor and was on her way to worldwide fame.50. What was true about Joan Chen when she was 14?A. Some people came to her school and chose her as an actress.B. She liked to study at the studio just because she wanted to be famous.C. The most important reason for her going to the studio was that she wouldn't like to stay atschool.D. She found she was fond of acting even before she was 14.51. When did she move to the States?A. In the late 1970s.B. After she graduated from college.C. In the late 1980s.D. In the early 1980s52. The interview with a director ______________________ .A. made her on the way to being famous in the worldB. led to no immediate good resultC. made her play a leading part in Tai-panD. gave her a chance to act in The Last EmperorCStudent participation(参与) in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the student's oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures. In graduate discussions the professor had a "manager" role and the students make presentations and lead discussions. The students do the actual teaching in these discussions.A professor's teaching method is another factor(因素) that determines the degree and type of student participation. Some professors prefer to control discussion while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it. Many professors encourage students to question their ideas. Students who object to the professor's point of view should be prepared to prove their positions.In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode of instruction is generally traditional, with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes. However, new educational trends have turned up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years. Students in education, society, and history classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design projects, make presentations, and examine case studies. Since some college or university courses are "practical" rather than theoretical, they pay more attention to "doing" for themselves.53. Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses except in .A. science and mathematicsB. the humanities and social sciencesC. informal lecture coursesD. discussion courses54. From the passage we know that education in the humanities and society _________________________ .A. has not changed muchB. pay attention to students' studying instead of teachers' teachingC. is much more important than that of science and mathematicsD. has become more practical than theoretical55. The reason why some professors ask students to make presentations and lead discussions is that .A. these professors are often not well prepared before classB. these professors want to stress "doing"C. these professors want to test the students' abilitiesD. these professors are not willing to teach theory56. Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?A. Student participation is not common in the classroom in many courses like social sciences.B. Some professors want to control the classroom discussion.C. Some professors usually want the students to take part in the teaching of science andmathematics.D. New educational trends have turned up in teaching of natural sciences such as chemistry. Keys: 46. CBAB 50. CDB 53. ADBBSection CDirections; Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from the list A—F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.Driving a car at high speed along a highway seems to be fun. You need only to follow the bright traffic signs beside the highways and it will take you to where you wish.But to a London taxi driver, driving is not an easy job. A taxi driver has to have not only good driving skills but also a good knowledge of the city of London, from the smallest lane to the most popular bar around. He has to be at the service of all kinds of passengers at all times.A certain London taxi driver told of his job as follows. During the night it is quite usual for him to stop two or three times for some sadness. He said, "I never drink when I'm working—I would lose my license. "He normally goes home at 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning. There are times he has to stay longer and tries to make more runs. He said, "That's the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don't make the money, no one is going to give it to you. "London taxi drivers not only " take" but also " give". Every summer hundreds of children from London will go for a day at the sea—by taxi f Their rides are paid by the taxi drivers, and these fares all go to the London Taxi Fund for Underprivileged Children. At the sea, they are met by the mayor, and a lunch party is also held in honor of the taxi drivers and the children. After a happy day running around the sea beaches and visiting the market, the children go home again—by taxi and free of charge.Section DDirections; Read the following passage. Then answer the questions or complete the sentences according to the information given in the passage you have just read.The next time you try for a high-ranking post, you could let your possible boss listen to a recommending(推荐) phone call "made" by former US President George W. Bush or former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.Of course, neither of them could really do that for you—you would just "borrow" their voices. AT&T labs will start selling speech software that it says is so good at reproducing the sounds of a human voice that it can recreate voices and even bring the voices of long-dead famous people back to life.The software, which turns printed text into speech, makes it possible for a company to use recordings of a person's voice to say things that the person never actually said.Possible customers for the software, which is priced in the thousands of dollars, include telephone call centers, companies that make software that reads digital(电子的) files aloud, and makers of automated voice devices（装置). The advances raise several problems. Who, for example, owns the rights to a famous person's voice? (Some experts even believe that new contracts(合同) will be drawn that include voice-licensing clauses. ) And although scientists say the technology is not yet good enough to commit fraud (假冒) , would the synthesized(合成的) voices at last be able to trick people into thinking that they were getting phone calls or digital audio recordings from people they know?Even Mr Fruchterman, one of A T&T lab's possible first customers, said he wondered what the new technology might bring. "Just like you can't trust a photograph any more. " he said, " you won't be able to trust a voice either. "62.What is the passage mainly about?63.With the help of the speech software, it is most possible _____________________________________ .64.If the speech software were widely used, ________________________________________________ .65.What problem might the new software cause?Keys: 57.

上海高一高中英语期中考试班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、其他1.As a boy，Tim was much influenced by books about the sea, but in fact by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor 【1】 a sailor. His father was a dentist and as a result Tim had the opportunity of meeting many doctors either at home or elsewhere. When he was fourteen he was already hanging around the clinic of a local doctor【2】 he was supposed to be helping to wrap up medicine bottles, but was actually trying【3】 (listen) to the conversations【4】 (take place) between the doctor and his patients in the next room.During the war Tim served in the Navy as a surgeon（外科医生）.“That was the happiest time of my life. I was dealing with very real suffering and【5】the whole making a success of it .”In California he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a life-saver. He【6】 (prove) his skills to himself and his ability to take decisions. Thus, while he was able to tell them what to do, he could feel he was serving them. After the war, he got married and chose to be a doctor in the countryside, working under an old doctor who was popular in the area,【7】 who hated the sight of blood and believed that the secret of medicine was faith. This gave the younger man many opportunities to go on【8】 (work) working as a life –saver.2.An American novelist Jonathan Franzen tells readers that he appreciated real, printed newspa pers more “as the Internet rose to power, disseminating information that could be trusted as little as it cost to read it.”That’s 【1】 turn of phrase that we could apply to the discussion of Internet rumors(谣言)and their impact: this kind of information can【2】(trust) as little as it costs to read it. That is, we can’t trust it at all. Franzen may be overstating the case to make a point. There are, after all, plenty of ways that the Internet has provided access to information that is trustworthy and accurate, not to mention helpful. The problem is【3】 the Internet also has flooded our lives with less accurate and less trustworthy material.“Digital literacy”is the name for this 21st century skill, and it is becoming as fundamentally important a s literacy itself. So【4】 do we tell the real from the false?Like anything, it takes practice at asking questions and, above all, paying attention to details【5】 (give) already. Who is the author? Do you know a real name or just a username(用户名)?Why【6】 you trust this person? Does he or she provide some credentials (证明)? There are big differences in the domains, and it is important to understand【7】 .It was【8】 (easy) to tell a trustworthy source in the days before the Internet. Then, we all knew which newspapers had the highest standards and which ones were more for sensation and entertainment than for real news and commentary.3.Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Bullying (欺负) can take a variety of forms, from the verbal being taunted or called hurtful names to the physical being kicked or shoved, as well as indirect forms, such as being excluded (排除)from social groups. A survey I conducted with Irene Whitney found that in British primary schools up to a quarter of pupils reported experienceof bullying, in which about one in ten cases was persistent(执意的). There was less bullying in secondary schools, with about one in twenty-five suffering persistent bullying, but these cases may be particularly recalcitrant. Bullying is clearly unpleasant, and can make the child experiencing it feel unworthy and depressed. In extreme cases it can even lead to suicide, though this is thankfully rare. Victimized pupils are more likely to experiencedifficulties with interpersonal relationships as adults, while children who persistently bully are more likely to grow up to be physically violent, and convicted of anti-social offences.Until recently, little help was available to teachers to deal with bullying. Perhaps as a consequence, schools would often deny the problem. “There is no bullying at this school” has been a common r efrain, almost certainly untrue. Fortunately more schools are now saying: “There is not much bullying here, but when it occurs we have a clear policy for dealing with it.”(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN ELEVEN WORDS)【1】According to the first paragraph, the fact that _________________ belongs to an indirect form of bullying. 【2】The survey the author conducted indicates that as students grow older, ______________.【3】Bullying is likely to cause ________________ feelings among victimized children.【4】One possible reason why schools denied the problem of bullying was ______________.4.Directions: Translate the following sentences into English. You are required to use the word given in the bracket for each respective sentence.【1】电脑的发明对人们的生活产生了重大影响。

Pizza is popular worldwide today. But it is one of the foods for which we can hardly name a specific origin. Putting a number of different things on flat bread as a meal goes back as far as ancient Rome. The word “pizza” appeared just before 1000 AD, in the area between Naples and Rome in Italy.The word itself is probably related to pita (bread). In ancient times, all bread was basically flat. In the middle ages, people started to put things on the bread and then eat it, kind of like what today might call an open face sandwich. It wasn‟t really a new and then eat it, kind of like what today might call an open face sandwich. It wasn‟t really a new way of eating—the bread was a sort of place mat(餐具垫) to help keep the table clean during meals. Only the rich could afford plates, so a flat piece of hard on the table was used instead for people who were too poor to buy plates. Some bread was specially baked for that purpose. After the meal, sometimes the bread was eaten, and sometimes given to the dogs.There are traditional pizza-like dishes in Provence in France where bread is topped with onions, tomatoes, anchovies(凤尾鱼) and olives. In the Middle East, 1ahma bi ajeen (阿拉伯比萨饼) is a pizza base with cut-up onions, meat and flavorings.American pizza, which can now be found throughout the world, was invented in America in the 1950s. Italian immigrants brought pizza to the United States in the early 1900s. However, it was in the 1950s pizza became popular outside the Italian-American community, and quickly spread throughout the US, and then the world.52.

The speaker was Robot Redford, a robot who gave the commencement speech at a community college in suburban Maryland.The speaker, carefully programmed, arrived on the stage under its own power and went on to tell the audience of 685 graduates, their families, and friends that they would have to learn to work with robots and technology to solve society‟s problems. The robot described itself as an extension of a person to help humans increase the workload(工作量). A 1though this particular robot can be programmed to speak the voice heard wasn‟t that of the robot, because it was feared that the robot‟s voice was not loud enough to carry throughout the hall. An amplified (扩大的) voice of a human was used instead, while the listeners watched the robot. Robot Redford was followed by a person, William Bakaleinikoff, who spoke about the need for cooperation between people and technology. Mr. Bakaleinikoff …s experience with his topic included the fact that he had created Robot Redford and had provided the voice for the robot‟s words to the graduates.There was quite a bit of argument over the choice of a robot as a commencement speaker. Some students thought it made them lose face to use a robot. Others thought the idea was clever, new and different.“I”II never forget his speech,” said one graduate. “You forget a political leader, but you won‟t forget a robot.”55.
