Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings.They point out that at a circus, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs a nd other animals doing quite skillful things. Perhaps you have seen them on the televi sion or in a film. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward. The scientists say that m any different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they w ill get a reward for doing them.Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house,and soldiers in both old and modern times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stran ger or an enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factori es. In Russian, for example, pigeons, which are birds with good eyesight, are being us ed to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory. Wh en the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak. This turns on a light to warn people in the factory. At the same time afew seeds are given as a reward. It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeon to th is and one pigeon can inspect 3,000 to 4,000 balls an hour.Apes have been used in America in helping to make cars, and scientists beli eve that these large monkeys may be one day gather crops and even drive trains.6. What made scientists think animals can be made to work for us one day?A. Animals are very skillful at a circus.7. The trainer usually gives the animal a piece of candy or fruit_____.D. after it has done the trick8. The "reward" in the passage means _____.D. something given in return for work9. Many animals may be trained to do simple jobs if they know _____.C. They will get a reward10. Which of the following is not true?D. An ape is not a large monkey.In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, mostlymarried. The atmosphere is usually ve ry friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is t o make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago ― so much so that ma ny people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make chi ldren happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that huma n beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive; however, th e need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviousl y quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fail s. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one anoth er both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.11. According to the passage, the U.S. elementary education is supposed to make children _____.D. happy and co-operative12. Some Americans complain about elementary schools because they think _____.D. schools give little actual instruction to children13. The author's attitude towards American education can be best described as _____.A. favorable14. The American educational system emphasizes _____.C. co-operation15. The word "sociable" (Line 8, Paragraph 2) most probably means _____.B. friendly with other people16. _____some money, Jimmy was able to buy his mother a washing machine.D. Having saved17. It's desired that she _____ to teach us at least twice a week.C. come18. The enemy troops _____ heavy losses in the battle.A. suffered19. _____ in the newspaper that the Minister will arrive here next Friday.C. It is said20. We are next-door _____.D. neighborsPeople form new companies to make goods and provide service because they hope to ma ke a profit .They work to improve their goods and services, to devise new products, an d to (21) a profit.

But in the business world everyone wear more or less similar suits, and you cannot tell at a glance who ranks higher or lower than another. So how do people in the business world show their superiority?An attempt to study this was mad by two researchers using a series of silent films. They had two actors play the parts of an executive(经理)and a visitor, and switch roles each time. The scene had one man at his desk playing the part of an executive, while the other, playing the part of a visitor, knocks at the door, opens it and approaches the desk to discuss some business matter.The audience watching the films was asked to rate the executive and the visitor in terms of status. A certain set of rules about status began to emerge from the rating. The visitor showed the least amount of status when he stopped just inside the door to talk across the room to the seated man. He was considered to have more status when he walked halfway up to the desk, and he had the most status when he walked directly up to the desk and stood right in front of the seated executive.Another thing that affected the status of the visitor in the eyes of the observers was the time between knocking and entering. For the seated executive, his status was also affected by the time between hearing the knock and answering. The quicker the visitor entered the room, the morestatus he had. The longer the executive took to answer, the more status he had.6. The experiment designed by the two researchers aimed at finding out _______.A. how business is conducted by an executive and a visitorB. how to tell the differences between an executive and a visitorC. how to tell businessmen at a glanceD. how businessmen indicate status7. Which of the statements can best sum up the passage?A. The executive has a higher status than the visitor.B. Military people wear uniforms but the business do not.C. A study revealing a set of rules about the status of businessmen.D. It is a good method to use a series of silent film in research.8. Having entered the room, the closer the visitor approaches the executive, ____.A. the less it affected his statusB. the lower his statusC. the more it affected his statusD. the higher his status9. The longer the seated man was in answering the knock, ______________.A. the higher his statusB. the less it affected his statusC. the lower his statusD. the more it affected his status10. Which statement is NOT true?A. Soldiers wear uniforms with various symbols so that one can tell their status at a glanceB. In the experiment, one actor played the executive while the other played the seated man.C. Business people wear similar suits.D. The audience watching the film rated the executive and the visitor in terms of status.Passage 2Crime has its own cycles, a magazine reported some years ago. Police records that were studied for five years from over 2,400 cities and towns show a surprising link between changes in the seasons and crime patterns.The pattern of crime has varied very little over a long period of years. Murder reaches its high during July and August, as do rape and other violent attacks. Murder, moreover, is more than seasonal: it is a weekend crime. It is also a nighttime crime: 62 percent of murders are committed between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.Unlike the summer high in crimes of bodily harm, burglary has a different cycle. You are most likely to be robbed between 6 p.m. and 2 a.m. on a Saturday night in December, January, or February. What is the most uncriminal month of all? May—except for one strange statistic. More dog bites are reported in this month than in any other month of the year.11. The main idea of paragraph 1 is ____.A. crime is a serious social problemB. there is a link between change in the seasons and crime patternsC. crime is not linked to the change in seasonD.2,400 towns were studied for five years12.

There are more dog bites in May.B. There are more robberies in May.C. There is the most crime in May.D. There are more murders in May.第三部分:词汇与结构(5*3)16.

We don't know if either story is true, but they are both interesting.The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education. In fact, he had difficulty in reading and writing. When important papers came to Jackson, he tried to read them and then had his assistants explain what they said. If he approved of a paper, he would write "all correct" on it. The problem was that he didn't know how to spell, so what he really wrote was "ol korekt". After a while, he shortened that term to "OK".The second explanation is based on the place where President van Buren was born, Kinderhook, New York. Van Buren's friends organized a club to help him become President. They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club, and anyone who supported Van Buren was called "OK".6. The author ___A. believes both of the storiesB. doesn't believe a word of the storiesC. is not sure whether the stories are trueD. is telling the stories just for fun7.

According to the first story, the term "OK" ___.A. was approved of by President JacksonB. was the title of some official documentsC. was first used by President JacksonD. was an old way to spell "all correct"9.

On her third day behind the counter, she received a phone call from her nine-year-old son, Tony. He needed a baseball glove for Little League. She explained that as a single mother, money was very tight, and her first check would have to pay bills. Perhaps she could buy his baseball glove with her second check.When Irene arrived for work the next morning, Sarah, the store manager, asked her to come to the office. Irene wondered if she had done something wrong. She was confused. Sarah handed her a box. "I heard you talking to your son yesterday," she said,” This is a baseball glove for Tony. You know we can't pay good people like you as much as we would like to, but I want you to know you are important to us."The thoughtfulness(体贴)and love of this manager shows that people remember more how much an employer cares than how much the employer pays.

Passage 1Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it,and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train,car or bus,even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money,one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.Then,in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend. more time in trains or buses,one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings,one can enjoy the fresh,clean air of the country. If one likes gardens,one can spend one’s free time digging,planting,watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then,when the flowers and vegetables come up,one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.Some people,however,take no interest in country things:for them,happiness lies in the town. with its cinemas and theatres,beautiful shops and busy streets,dance–halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s(two weeks)visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want:the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.

A fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is enough for people who love country life.A. TB. FPassage 2By definition,heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage,achievements,and sel f-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others—they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping ournation’s consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond u s–an artifact of the past. Some mai n tain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace,our age is essentially an un-heroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down,poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.Cultural icons are hard to define,but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星),who are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and 0therS mere celebrities? That’s hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince,renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic deat h—such as Martin Luther King, Jr. John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana.

What is more likely to set an icon’s status?A. Good looks.B. Tragic and early death.C. Personal attraction.D. The quality of one’s story.第三部分:词汇与结构(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)此部分共有5个未完成的句子,针对每个句子中未完成的部分有4个选项,请从A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出正确选项。
