Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A，B，C andD. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet.Passage oneWhat do you use to get around town? A cat? A bike? Your feet? Perhaps you should try aSegway!The Segway is perfect for short journey. It is an electric vehicle that consists of a platformbetween two wheels, with a pole that connects the platform to the handlebars. To ride it, you stepup onto the platform, and control the Segway by moving your body. Lean forwards to go faster,and backwards to slow down.On older models, direction is controlled by a twist grip（扭转把手）on the left handlebar. Thisvaries the speeds between the two motors, a decrease in the seed of the left wheel would turn theSegway to the left. With never models you simply lean to the left or right. Meanwhile, a gyroscope（陀螺仪）detects your movements and prevents the machine form falling over. The Segway has amaximum speed of 19 km per hour and a range of about 38 km. After that, you need to plug it inand recharge the battery.Segways are used for a variety of purposes. People with mobility problems can now enjoy walks in the country with their friends and family. Some golfers use them as an alternative to thegolf cart. And dog owners now have an easier way to take the dog to the park. A few police forces use Segways, too. They allow officers to move quickly whilst maintaining contact with the public. They are also becoming a common sight on airport. However, the most popular use is in tourism, particularly for city tours. Visit any major tourist city in summer, sit outside a cafe for a while and there is a good chance you will see a group of tourists passing on Segways.（）36.What is the Segway according to this passage?A. A pole that connects two handlebars.B. An electric two-wheeled vehicle for short trips.C. A bicycle with a platform between two wheels.D. A newly appeared public traffic vehicle.（）37. How do you turn to the left on Segways of newer models?A. Press the left barB. Adjust the twist gripC. Lean to the leftD.Control the gyroscope（）38.How far can you travel on a Segway at most?A. Less than 19 kmB. About 19 kmC. More than 38 kmD. About 38 km（）39.The last paragraph focuses on ____?A. When a Segway is usefulB. Where to find a SegwayC. How to control a SegwayD. What a Segway is likePassage TwoWe all love a hero, and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all. You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone, risking--and at times losing--their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups, or from the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound, Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Belgian Malinois--all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty, and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell--to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals, they serve in many different fields, including specialist search, snow slide rescue, dead body location, and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker, a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength, the dog must be swift, confident, easily trainable, adaptable, and have a high level of stamina (耐力) and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during "down"time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty. Trainingis not for the faint-hearted. Certification training can take from two to three years, working threeto four hours a day, three to six days a week, often in group,team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue training, for instance, includes "air scenting"--where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim' s scent (气味) and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.（）40. Rescue dogs are chosen probably because__A. they are braveB. they are loyalC. they have amazing appearancesD. they have good eyesight（）41. What does "faint-hearted" in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Courageous.B. Slow.C. Energetic.D. Cowardly.（）42. Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A. Extraordinary smelling.B. Swift movement.C. Sharp hearing.D. A strong memory.（）43. What is the passage mainly about?A. Selection process of rescue dogs.B. Risks rescue dogs are faced with.C. Qualities and training of rescue dogs.D. Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeDuring a television play the sound man must be ready to make every sound as it is needed．Sound effects are of three kinds：real，imitated and recorded．Real sounds are those of doorbells，telephone bells，and other small objects easy to keep in a studio．But the sound man must imitate many sounds．For bacon fryin9，he crumples cellophane paper．A long sheet of metal hanging in a doorway makes thunder?He taps one rubber sink plunger and then another on a table to imitate a horse walking on pavement．For a horse galloping along a gravel road，the sound man can use the two halves of a coconut，pounding each in turn very fast on the table．Recorded sound effects are used for noises he cannot himself produce offstage．He pays records for such sounds as a rooster crowing， a train leaving a station，and a baby crying．The sound man is an important part of any television production．( )44. The sound man is important because he________?A. makes fl TV play more lifelikeB. is kept busyC. 1ets an actor know when to life a telephone receiverD. is always learning new methods( )45.

Recorded sound effects are used for a_______?A. train leaving a stationB. baby cryingC. rooster crowingD. all of the abovePassage FourEqual pay for equal work is a phrase used by the American women who feel that are lookeddown upon by society. They say it is for women to be paid less than men for the same work.People who hold the opposite opinion （mainly men）have an answer to this. They say that menhave more responsibility than women；a married man is expected to earn money to support hisfamily and to make the important decision，and therefore it is right for men to be paid more. Thereare some people who hold even stronger opinion than this and are against married women workingat all. When wives go out to work，they say，the home and children are given no attention to. Ifwomen are encouraged by equal pay to take full time job，they will be unable to do the things.Women are best at making a comfortable home and bringing up children. They will have to giveup their present position in society.This is exactly what they want to give up, the women who disagree say. They want to escapefrom the limited place which society expects them to fill and to have freedom to choose between ajob and home life，or mixture of the two. Women have the right of equal pay and equalopportunities.These women have expressed their opinions forcefully busing the famous saying，“Al l men They point out that the meaning of this sentence is “all h uman being are are created equal.” created equal.”demand that _____.( )48. The women use the phrase “equal pay for equal work” toA. woman's work shouldn't be harder than men'sB. men should be paid less than womenC. men and women should be paid the same amount of money for the same workD. people doing harder work should earn more( )49.What exactly do the women who disagree want to give up？A. Their jobB. Their home lifeC. Their present position in societyD. Their right to pay( )50.People who disagree with women's opinions believe _____.A. men's responsibilities are different from women'sB. men can earn money more easily than womenC. women can't do what men canD. men have to work much harder than womenthat ___.( )51. The women use the saying “all men created equal” to showA. the position of women has changed a little in modern timeB. men and women had equal power in early American societyC. men's right are always considered more important than women'sD. in American society men and women should in modern time( )52.The women who disagree say that _______.A. women want more freedom in deciding the kind of life the liveB. women are no longer interested in taking care of their homesC. if women are given equal pay，their opportunities will be greatD. women need opportunities to go out of the house more oftenPassage FiveAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution ofhigher learning. The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. Theseinstitutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science(B.S.) degree. Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for oneto two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schoolsrequire strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specificcollege prep classes in high school. Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges andfamous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, byearning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degreesin grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require suchadvanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have full-timejobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-yearprogram because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjo social activities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However, gatheringtogether for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university isprobably the most popular activity.( )53. College education is _______ in America.A. very rareB. quite commonC. something difficultD. almost impossible( )54. Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools. A. entrance examinations B. college prep classes C. GPAD. taking part in many activities( )55. How can poor students attend private schools? A. Only by working at part-time jobs. B. Only by working at full-time jobs. C. Only by earning scholarships.D. All of above.V.

May I speak to Tony? Tony: This is Tony speaking. _______ Susan: It’s Susan.Tony: Oh, Susan, it ’s been a while since we ’ve talked last time. _______Susan: Same with me. Hey, did you know Terry is going to be married? She invited me to her wedding and she wants you to attend also. Tony: ________ Susan: definitely.

Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, Cand D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneDebate is a valuable way to practise communicating. It can also bring long-lasting rewards,especially for people working with Western businesses. The main activity of debate is presenting one' s opinion and suppmting it with evidence,such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the "Discover Debate" method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business. Successful debaters learnhow to give their opinkm,reasans and support. "What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact (交流) with someone else' s opinion, rather than brush their opinion aside. "Debate skills are also important in selling a product, he says. In that situation, the judges are the customem. "So on Monday, for example, one company may come in and presenttheir case to the customer and they" ll make as strong a ease as they can. On Tuesday, the next day, another company will come in and present their ease to the customer. Usually the party t hat can present the strongest case wins”Debate also strengthens critical thinking. In other words,it helps students learn to ask questionsand try to understand someone' s reasons and evidence.lift-. Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying. Then, they look for the weak points in someone else' s opinion orargument. He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else' s point of view. Mr. Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind. "There' s an expression in English ： don' t criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is, it puts us in another person' s shoes. "36. According to Paragraph 1 ,what is the purpose of debate?A. To bring long-lasting material rewards.B. To present evidence such as statistics and facts.C. To respond to questions in a systematic way.D. To persuade people to accept your opinions.37. Why is debate important.9A. It helps people understand others better.B. It allows people to present their opinions.C. It develops one' s thinking and communicative competence.D. It gives one the opportunity to brush others' opinion aside.38. What does the underlined word "case" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Container.B. Evidence.C. Problem.D. Product.39. What can debaters benefit from "walking in another person' s shoes" .9A. Becoming more broad-minded.B. Developing critical thinking.C. Finding others' weak points.D. Trying out others' methods.Passage TwoWe all love a hero, and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all. You will often find them going above andbeyond duty to save someone, risking--and at times losing--their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups, or from the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound, Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Belgian Malinois--all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty, and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell--to better locate lost individuals —and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals, they serve in many different fields, including specialist search, snowslide rescue, dead body location, and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker, a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength, the dog must be swift, confident, easily trainable, adaptable, and have a high level of stamina (耐力) and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during "down" time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted. Certification training can take from two to three years, working three to four hours a day, three to six days a week, oftenin group,team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue training, for instance, includes "air scenting"--where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim' s scent (气味) and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.40. Rescue dogs are chosen probably because__A. they are loyalB. they are braveC. they have amazing appearancesD. they have good eyesight41. What does "faint-hearted" in Paragraph 5 mean??A. Courageous.B. Cowardly.C. Energetic.D. Slow.42. Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A. Sharp hearing.B. Swift movement.C. Extraordinary smelling.D. A strong memory.43. What is the passage mainly about?A. Selection process of rescue dogs.B. Qualities and training of rescue dogs.C. Risks rescue dogs are faced with.D. Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeEating an apple a day doesn' t keep the doctor away, but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug storeper year. That ' s according to a newstudy that investigates whether there' s any truth in theold saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of Michigan School of Nursing,asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health.A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7,646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. "Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications," the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, they docontain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less.With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes (二型糖尿病) ,improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (结肠) cancer.44. How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A. 149.B. 7,646.C. 753.D. 8,399.45. What is the conclusion of the study?A. Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults' trips to the doctor.B. An apple a day does keep the doctor away.C. Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D. A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.46. What can we learn from the passage?A. Apples are better than oranges.B. Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.C. Apples can help cure certain diseases.D. Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.47. What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A. Objective.B. Creative.C．subjectiveD．persuasivePassage FourSometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government' s efforts to improve schools：new standards and tests to be applied, strict teacher evaluations, and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees,not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas--which is what fear does to us--research on school reform strongly suggests thatpolicy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools, Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing：psychological safety or safety to speak one's mind,to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn' t working,to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn' t come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider, the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity （正直). The challeage is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught, each teacher had different expectations about how much effort teachers should put into their work--a big difference between the teachers who leftaf~the last bell and those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are uncoasci or unspoken, it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person' s behavior. As we all Imam,assumptions are often wrong. For example, parents and teachers my think the principal taml particular decision based on his career advancementrather than hat" s best for the studeata. don't feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions ande~aecmtiatm, trust itiea am the window and our relationships suffer.48. According to Paragraph 1,why does the author scratch his head?A. Because he doesn' t know what to do once schools are closed.B. Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C. Because he is concerned that many teachers will losetheir jobs.D. Because he is not in favor of the government' s reform efforts.49. According to Bryk and Schneider, what was most important for successful school improvemt?A. New standards and tests in schools.B. Positive social relationships.C. Strict teacher and student evaluations.D. Assistance of the government.50. What is meant by trust in school?A. Freedom to express one' s views,B. Extra effort teachers put into their work.C. Independence of the teachers in schools.D. Unconscious and unspoken expectations.51. What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person's behavior?A. They should be trusted.B. They are often bold.C. They are often incorrect.D. They should be encouraged.Passage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest, hest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe, Latin America,Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role, but these folks also have strong social ties ,tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones, as described in author Dan Buettner " s latest book, The Blue Zones Solution, we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact, Buettner' s Blue Zones Beverage Rule--a kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of studying these places--is：" Drink coffee for breakfast, tea in the afternoon, wine at 5 p. tm"Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea. Researchers are most enthusi- astic almt the components in green tea, as well as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okina~vans in Japan break 1007 Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke,heart disease attd several cancers. One review study also foundthat drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism (新陈代谢).If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria, the Greek Blue Zone in the middleof the Aegean, you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves. Instead, Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselvesthat day--either rosemary, wild sage,oregano,nmrjotmn,mint or dandelion,all plants that may have anti-inflammatory (消炎的) properties,which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikaria' s very low dementia (痴呆) rate,since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.52. What does the underlined word "centenarians" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. People who have secret lifestyles.B. People who enjoy physical exercise.C. People who are one hundred years old or older.D. People who carry the gene for being slim.53. According to Paragraph 3 ,what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A. In the morning.B. Any time of a day.C. In the early evening.D. In the afternoon.54. What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?A. To improve metabolism.B. To lower blood pressure.C. To lower life stress.D. To improve social relationships.55.

Cloze (20 points)Directions：For each blank in the following passage, there are four choices given below and marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that is most suitable and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Investors can _51_ money simply by loaning it. The money they loan is called capital. Security (担保) is an expensive item which the borrower mortgages (抵押) to the investor to show that he intends to _52_ the debt. The way investors make money on loans is to charge interest. Interest is money that _53_ pay to investors for the use of their money. Interest is usually a certain percentage of the capital. Investors sometimes _54 ten percent or more interest per year. The interest may be calculated daily, monthly, or yearly. The interest must be _55_ before the capital can be repaid. If the interest is not _56_ the agreed rate, the interest is added _57_ the capital. Then the borrower has _58_ pay interest on the unpaid interest _59_ on the capital.

Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions：There are four reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each questionthere are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneStudents enrolled at least half time may borrow up to $3,000 form the government over a two-year period. Repaymentof the loan begins six months after the student leaves school. These loans carry on interest until this time. The current interest rate is 5 percent. Students may borrow up to $4,500 annually from a bank, credit union, savings and loan association or other eligible lender. Repayment on theseloans usually begins six months after the student leaves school. These loans carry no interest until this time. This current interest rate is 9 percent. Parents may borrow up to $300 annually for each dependent college. Repayment begins forty-five days after receiving the loan, and the interest rate is 12 percent.61. Which of the following is the main purpose?To remind students and their families to repay their loan.To compare interest rates.To inform students and parents of the various loans available.To show that government loans charge the least interest.62. The highest interest rate is charged to _______.A. full-time studentsB. parentsC. students borrowing from a credit unionD. half-time students63. If parents had three children in college how much could they borrow annually?A. 900B. 3,000C. 300D. 9,00064. According to the passage which of the following is true.The government lends students enrolled at least half time up to 3,000 annually.Students may borrow up to $4,500 annually from four sources.Students enrolled less than half time may borrow money.The current interest rate from banks is 5 percent.65. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.the student’s school determines who is an eligiblelendermoney is available for student loansstudents need not be enrolled half time to borrow moneythe interest rate on student loans is increasingPassage TwoAre you aware that you actually possess six senses? The sixth is a muscular sense responsible for directing your muscles intelligently to the exact extent necessary for each action you perform. For example, when you reach for an object, the sensory nerves linking the muscles to the brain stop your hand at the correct spot. This automatic perception of the position of your muscles in relation to the object is your muscular sense in action.Muscles are stringly bundles of fibers varying from one five-thousandth of an inch to about three inches. They have three unique characteristics, they can become shorter and thicker; they can stretch; and they can retract to their original positions. Under a high-powered microscope, muscle tissue is seen as long, slender cells with a grainy texturelike wood.More than half of a person’s body is composed of muscle fibers, most of which are involuntary—in other words, work without conscious direction. The voluntary muscles, thosethat we move consciously to perform particular actions, number more than five hundred. Women have only 60 to 70 percent as much muscle as men for their body mass. That is why an average woman can’t lift as much, throw as far, o rhit as hard as an average man.66. According to the selection, the muscular sense is responsible for ______.A. the efficiency of our musclesB. the normal breathing functionC. directing our muscles intelligentlyD. the work of only our involuntary muscles67. Intelligent use of the muscles means that ________.one always knows what his muscles are doingone performs simple actions whithout workingone’s muscles are used only to the extent necessary for each action they performone improves muscular action consciously68. Muscles are unique fibers because, they can ________.A. contractB. stretchC. retractD. do all of the above69. Under a microscope, muscle cells appear to be_______.A. textured like woodB. colored like woodC. smooth and redD. short and thick70. According to the selection more than half of a person’s body is composed of ______.A. voluntary musclesB. involuntary musclesC. muscle fibersD. sensory nervesPassage ThreeThe large part which war played in English affairs in the Middle-Ages, the fact that the control of the army and navy was in the hands of those that spoke French, and the circumstances that much of English fighting was done in France all resulted in the introduction into English of a number of French military terms. The art of war has undergone such changes since the battles of Hastings, Lewes, and Agincourt that many words once common are now only in historical use. Their places have been taken by later borrowings, often like wise from French, many of them being words acquired by the French in the course of their wars in Italy during the sixteenth century. Yet we still use French words of the Middle Ages when we speak of the army and the navy, of peace, enemy, battle, soldier, guard and spy, and we have kept the names of officers such as captain and sergeant. Some of the French terms were introduced into English because they were needed to express a new object or a new idea. In other cases a French and a native English word for the same thing existed side by side. Sometimes one or the other has since been lost from the language; but sometimes both the borrowed and the native word have been still in common use.71. The main idea of this passage is that ______.mo st of today’s common English military terms dated from the sixteenth century or latera study of the English vocabulary shows the important part which war has played in the history of Englandmany French words borrowed into English during the Middle Ages have since disappeared from the languagemany military terms used in English were originally borrowed from French, some as early as the Middle Ages72. All of the following have something to do with the introduction into English of many French military terms except that _______.war played an important part in English affairs in the Middle Agesthe English army and navy were controlled by those who spoke French in the war between England and FranceFrance invaded England in the Middle Ages and many battles were fought in Englandmuch of English fighting was done in France in the war between England and France73. The art of war has undergone such changes that_______.we no longer use any French words of the Middle Agesmany words once common are not used any longer and they are replaced by Italian wordsFrench military terms have disappeared from the English languagemany words once common are now only in historical use and their places have been taken by the newly-borrowed words74.
