全部题目用英文作答(翻译题除外I. Reading Comprehension. (50 points, 2 points for eachDirections: In this part of the test, there are five passages. Following each passage, there are five questions with four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and then write the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet. Passage OneWhether you‘re delivering a speech, approaching your boss for a raise or addressing audience on an important social occasion, do your homework. The most polished, smoothly delivered, spontaneous-sounding talks are the result of many hours of work. The memorable one-liners and moving phrases that go down in history don‘t come from last minute burst of inspiration.If you‘re making a p resen tation of any sort, begin preparing as far ahead of time as possible. ―Good writing,‖ says Harvard University historian Richard Marius, ―is a kind of wrestling with thought.‖ Begin the wrestling match early. Two days before your presentation is usually too late to go into the ring and come up with a winning idea.Prepare yourself as well as your material, giving special attention to your voice. A shrill, nasal tone strikes your listener like chalk screeching on a blackboard. By putting energy and resonance into your voice, you will have a positive effect. If your voice is timid or quivers with nervousness, you sense it, the audience hears it, and you see discomfort in their eyes. With energy and enthusiasm in your voice, the listeners say ahhh, tell me more. Y ou read approval.Like your voice, your appearance is a communication tool. For example, if you are animated, you are most likely to see animated listeners. Y ou give the audience the message: I‘m glad I‘m here; I‘m glad you‘re here.However, don‘t e ve r assume that an audience, an interviewer, your boss will be sympathetic. Always be prepared for a grilling. Think beforehand of the ten toughest questions you could get and be ready with your answers. And remember, when you‘re asked a hostile question, never show hostility to your questioner. If you do, you lose.While the hostile questioner is talking, prepare your response. Take a positive tack immediately, and make your answer short. The instant the interviewer finishes the question, begin the answer: first point, second point, third point...bingo, your conclusion.The way you listen gives messages about you too. Listen with interest, focusing your eyes on the speaker. If he or she is sitting next to you, angle your body slightly in the chair so that y o u‘re turned toward the person. Animate your face with approval. It says, I‘m with you, I‘m interested in what you‘re saying.Once you‘re prepared for a situation, you‘re 50 per cent of the way toward overcoming nervousness. The other 50 percent is the physical and mental control of nervousness: adjusting your attitude so you have confidence, and control of yourself and your audience.Questions 1-5 are based on Passage One.1. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The methods that one can use to let people agree with him or her in a speech.B. How to make one‘s voice and appearance pleasant when one gives speeches.C. The importance of preparation before one talks to people on formal occasions.D. How to overcome anxiety when one talks to the audience on formal occasions.2. ―One-liners‖ (Para. 1are ________.A. well-written articlesB. excellent speechesC. single witty sentencesD. unforgettable phrases3. By saying ―like chalk screeching on a blackboard‖ (Para. 3, the author ________.A. refers to the feeling an unpleasant voice arouses in the audienceB. points out that one needs to use chalk to write on the blackboardC. means that one should speak loud enough for all audience to hearD. stresses that one must put energy and resonance into his or her voice4. When asked a hostile question, one should________.A. answer quickly and brieflyB. ignore the question totallyC. defend himself or herself firmlyD. respond smartly and pleasantly5. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. One should look out for tough questions from an audience beforehand.B. One should spend a lot of time preparing before talking to an audience.C. If one looks active and vigorous, the audience will respond accordingly.D. If on e makes a thorough prepara tion he won‘t be nervous at all in a speech.Passage TwoSoccer might be the most popular sport in the world, but for decades, Americans have managed to resist its charm. Their attention has been focused, of course, on the big three American sports: baseball, football and basketball. And while soccer is rapidly gaining popularity among younger Americans, the older generation remains detached from the game, even when the rest of the world is glued to TV screens watching the 2006 World Cup matches.It‘s not a s though soccer is a stranger to American shores. The U.S. national soccer team played in the first World Cup in 1930. But from the start, the game had an image for many Americans as an immigrant sport. Still soccer began to attract more attention in the United States after the 1974 World Cup.The following year, the country got its first professional soccer teams, with the launch of the North American Soccer League. The New Y ork Cosmos became the league‘s flagship franchise when i t acquired a stellar ros ter of players from 16 different countries, including the Brazilian soccer legend Pele, the high-scoring Italian great Georgio Chinagalia, andGerman superstar Franz Beckenbauer. By 1977, attendance at American soccer games had grown to a record 62,000.Peppe Pinton, a veteran soccer player and the executive director of the Cosmos soccer camps, likes to recall those golden days when American fans packed the stadiums to watch some of the world‘s best soccer players — most of them play ing on the same team. ―Americans are used to watch winners,‖ Pinton says. ―Americans are used to watch superstars, great players in all sports, and they are not settling for inferiority. TheCosmos team was not successful in the early years, but it was suc cessful when those pla yers came here.‖People lined up to get into the stadium like they would line up to get into a popular restaurant, Pinton says. ―People attracted people. And the Cosmos made this happen all over the U.S.,‖ he says. ―It drew record cro wds in Seattle, in Mi ami, in Tampa, Boston, in Chicago and then they went all over the world. They went even into China when nobody was reaching China those years.‖But for 40 years, the U.S. was unable to qualify for World Cup games because most of the players on its soccer teams were not American citizens. Finally, in 1990, with enough home-grown or naturalized players on its rosters, the U.S. was able to field a World Cup team.Questions 6-10 are based on Passage Two.6. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. The U.S. has been playing in World Cup for 20 years.B. Soccer is not one of the top spectator sports in the U.S.C. Many players on America‘s soccer team were foreigners.D. More and more young people in the U.S. are enjoying soccer.7. Which is true about the New Y ork Cosmos?A. It was established in 1975.B. It played in the 1974 World Cup.C. It was a great success in mid- 1970s.D. It broke a sport record in the late 1970s.8. It is suggested that more and more Americans will watch soccer if________.A. their team plays in the World CupB. there are superstar players in their teamsC. there is greater promotion of the sportD. more matches are arranged in their country9. Which year is the most glorious time for soccer in the U.S.?A. 1974.B. 1977.C. 1990.D. 2006.10. ―Field‖ (Para. 6has the closest meaning to which of the following?A. To sponsor a team.B. To host a sports event.C. To provide a game venue.D. To send players to a game.Passage ThreeMany Americans harbor a grossly distorted and exaggerated view of most of the risks surrounding food. Fergus Clydesdale, head of the department of food science andnutrition at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, says bluntly that if the dangers from bacterially contaminated ch icken were as great as some people believe, ―the streets would be littered with people lying here and there.‖Though the public increasingly demands no-risk food, there is no such thing. Bruce Ames, chairman of the biochemistry department at the University of California, Berkeley, points out that up to 10% of a plant‘s weight is made up of natural pesticides. He says, ―Since plants do not have jaws or teeth to protect themselves, they employ chemical warfare.‖ And many naturally producedchemicals, though occurring in tiny amounts, prove in laboratory tests to be strong carcinogens — substance which can cause cancer. Mushrooms might be banned if they were judged by the same standards that apply to food additives. Declares Christina Stark, a nutritionist at C ornell University, ―We‘ve got far worse natural chemicals in the food supply than anything man-made.‖Y et the issues are not that simple. While Americans have no reason to be terrified to sit down at the dinner table, they have every reason to demand significant improvements in food and water safety. They unconsciously and unwillingly take in too much of too many dangerous chemicals. If food already contains natural carcinogens, it does not make much sense to add dozens of new man-made ones. Though most people will withstand the small amount of contaminants generally found in food and water, at least a few individuals will probably get cancer one day because of what they eat and drink.To make good food and water supplies even better, the Government needs to tighten its regulatory standards, stiffen its inspection program and strengthen its enforcement policies. The food industry should modify some long-accepted practices or turn to less hazardous alternatives. Perhaps most important, consumers will have to do a better job of learning how to handle and cook food properly. The problems that need to be tackled exist all along the food-supply chain, from fields to processing plants to kitchens.Questions 11-15 are based on Passage Three.11. What does the author think of the Americans‘ view of their food?A. They overlook the risks of the food they eat.B. They overestimate the hazards of their food.C. They are overoptimistic about the safety of the food they eat.D. They overstate the government‘s interference with the food industry.12. The author considers it impossible to obtain no-risk food because ______.A. no food is free from pollution in the environmentB. pesticides are presently widely used in agricultureC. almost all foods have additives and preservativesD. many vegetables contain dangerous natural chemicals13. By saying ―they employ chemical warfare‖ (Para. 2, Bruce Ames means ______.A. plants produce certain chemicals to combat pests and diseasesB. plants make use of natural chemicals to promote their growth111C. farmers use man-made chemicals to dissolve the natural chemicals in plantsD. farmers use man-made chemicals to protect plants against pests and diseases14. Who is most responsible for better food and water supply?A. The government.B. The consumer.C. The processor.D. The growers.15. What is the message the author wants to convey in the passage?A. Eating and drinking have become more hazardous.B. Measures must be taken to improve food production.C. Health food is no longer a dream in modern society.D. There is no cause for alarm about food consumption.Passage FourThe estimates of the numbers of home-schooled children vary widely. The U.S. Department of Education estimates there are 250, 000 to 350, 000 home-schooled children in the country. Home-school advocates put the number much higher –at about a million.Many public school advocates take a harsh attitude toward home schoolers, perceiving their actions as the ultimate slap in the face for public education and a damaging move for the children. Home schoolers harbor few kind words for public schools, charging shortcomings that range from lack of religious perspective in the curriculum to a herdlike approach to teaching children.Y et, as public school officials realize they stand little to gain by remaining hostile to the home-school population, and as home schoolers realize they can reap benefits from public schools, these hard lines seem to be softening a bit. Public schoolers have moved closer to tolerance and, in some cases, even cooperation.Says John Marshall, an education official, ―We are becoming relatively tolerant of home schoolers.‖ The idea is, ―Let‘s give the kids access to public school so they‘ll see it‘s not as terrible as they‘ve been told, and they‘ll want to come back.‖Perhaps, but don‘t count on it, say home-school advocates. Home schoolers, oppose the system because they have strong convictions that their approach to education —whether fueled by religious enthusiasm or the individual child‘s interests and na tural pace — is best.―The bulk of home schoolers just want to be left alone,‖ says Eng e Cannon, associate director of the National Center For Home Education. She says home schoolers choose that path for a variety of reasons, but religion plays a role 85 percent of the time.Professor V an Galen breaks home schoolers into two groups. Some home schoolers want their children to learn not only traditional subject matter but also ―strict religious doctrine and a conservative political and social perspective. Not incidentally, they also want their children to learn —both intellectually and emotionally —that the family is the most important institution in society.‖Other home schoolers contend ―not so much that the schools teach heresy, but that schools teach wha tever they teach inappropriately‖. V an Galen writes, ―These parents are highly independ ent and strive to ‗take responsibility‘ for their own lives within a society that they define as bureaucratic and inefficient.‖Questions 16-20 are based on Passage Four.16. According to the passage, home schoolers are______.A. those who hire teachers to educate their children after schoolB. those who are educated at home instead of going to schoolC. those who advocate combining public education with home schoolingD. those who teach their children at home instead of sending them to school17. Public schools are softening their position on home schooling because______.A. they want to show their tolerance for different situationB. there isn‘t much they can do to cha nge the present situationC. public schools cannot offer proper education for all childrenD. home schooling provides a new variety of education for children18. Home-school advocates are of the opinion that ______.A. things in public schools are not so bad as they have often been saidB. their cooperation with public school will bring about benefits to allC. home schooling is superior and, therefore, they will not easily give inD. their tolerance of public education will attract more kids to public schools19. Most home schoolers‘ opposition to public education stems from their______.A. devotion to religionB. concern with the cost involvedC. respect for the interest of individualsD. worry about the inefficiency of public schools20. According to V an Galen, some home schoolers believe that ______.A. public schools take up a herdlike approach to teaching childrenB. teachers in public schools are not as responsible as they should beC. public schools cannot provide good enough education for their childrenD. public schools are the source of bureaucracy and inefficiency in societyPassage FiveImagine a world in which there was suddenly no emotion —a world in which human beings could feel no love or happiness, no terror or hate. Try to imagine the consequences of such a transformation.People might not be able to stay alive: knowing neither joy nor pleasure, anxiety nor fear, they would be as likely to repeat acts that hurt them as acts that were beneficial. They could not learn: they could not benefit from experience because this emotionless world would lack rewards and punishments. Society would soon disappear: people would be as likely toharm one another as to provide help and support. Human relationships would not exist: in a world without friends or enemies, there co uld be no marriage, affection among companions, or bonds among members of groups. Society‘s economic underpinnings would be destroyed: since earning $10 million would be no more pleasant than earning $ 10, there would be no incentive to work. In fact, there would be no incentives of any kind. For as we will see, incentives imply a capacity to enjoy them.In such a world, the chances that the human species would survive are next to zero, because emotions are the basic instrument of our survival and adaptation. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways.As individuals, we categorize objects on the basis of our emotions. True we consider the length, shape, size, or texture, but an object‘s physical aspects are less important than what it has done or can do to us — hurt us, surprise us, anger us or make us joyful. We also use categorizations colored by emotions in our families, communities, and overall society.Out of our emotional experiences with objects and events comes a social feeling of agreement that certain things and actions are ―good‖ and others are ―bad‖, and we apply these categories to every aspect of our social life — from what foods we eat and what clothes we wear to how we keep promises and which people our group will accept.In fact, society exploits our emotional reactions and attitudes, such as loyalty, morality, pride, shame, guilt, fear and greed, in order to maintain itself. It gives high rewards to individuals who perform important tasks such as surgery, makes heroes out of individuals for unusual or dangerous achievements such as flying fighter planes in a war, and uses the legal penal system to make people afraid to engage in anti-social acts.Questions 21-25 are based on Passage Five.21. The reason why people might not be able to stay alive in a world without emotion is that______.A. they would not be able to tell the texture of objectsB. they would not know what was harmful to themC. they would not be happy with a life without loveD. they would do things that hurt each other‘s feelings22. According to the passage, peo ple‘s learning activities are possible because they______.A. believe that emotions are fundamentalB. benefit from providing help to one anotherC. enjoy being rewarded for doing the right thingD. know what is vital to the progress of society23. It can be inferred from the passage that the economic foundation of society is dependent on______.A. the ability to make moneyB. the will to work for pleasureC. the capacity to enjoy incentivesD. the wish to create more products24. Emotions are significant for man‘s survival and adaptation because ______.A. they encourage people to perform dangerous achievementsB. they generate more love than hate among people in societyC. they provide the means by which people view the shape of objectsD. they give people the social feeling of agreement that maintains society25. The emotional aspects of an object are more important than its physical aspects in that they ______.A. help us adapt our behavior to the societyB. encourage us to perform important tasksC. help to perfect the legal and penal systemD. help society exploit its members for profitII. Vocabulary. (10 points, 1 point for eachDirections: Scan the following passage and find the words which have roughly the same meanings as those given below. The number in the brackets after each worddefinition refers to the number of paragraph in which the target word is. Write the word you choose on your Answer Sheet.Although the actual extent of computer crime is difficult to measure, most experts agree that it is one of the fastest growing areas of illegal activity. The principal reason for both the growth and the lack of accurate measurement is the difficulty in detecting a well-executed theft. Losses per incident thus tend to be higher than in other types of theft. Once the computer criminal has compromised the system, it is just as easy to steal a great sum as it is to steal a little, and to continue stealing long after the initial theft.Computer criminals are, for the most part, well-educated and highly intelligent, and have the analytical skills that make them valued employees. The fact that computer criminals do not fit criminal stereotypes helps them to obtain the positions they require to carry out crimes. Being intelligent, they have fertile imaginations, and the variety of ways in which they use equipment to their advantages is constantly being extended. In addition to direct theft of funds, the theft of data for corporate espionage or extortion is being widespread, and can obviously have a substantial effect on a company‘s finances. Another lucrative scheme, often difficult to detect, involves accumulating fractions pence from individual payroll accounts, with electronic transfer of the accumulated amount to the criminal‘s payroll.Sabotage is also an increasingly common type of computer crime. Everyone in the computer business has heard of cases of a ―ti me-bomb‖ being placed in a program. Typically, the programmer inserts an instruction that causes the computer to destroy an entire personnel data bank, for example, if the programmer‘s employment is terminated. As soon as the termination data is fed into the system, it automatically erases the entire program.26. most important; main (Para. 127. something that happens (Para. 128. to do something damaging (Para. 129. fixed images of what a particular type of person is like (Para. 230. full of interesting and unusual ideas (Para. 231. profitable; able to make a lot of money (Para. 232. the process by which something moves or is moved from one place to another (Para. 233. damage done deliberately to equipment so that they can‘t be used (Para. 334. puts something into something else (Para. 335. the act of ending something (Para. 3III. Summarization. (20 points, 2 points for eachDirections: In this section of the test, there are ten paragraphs. Each of the paragraph is followed by an incomplete phrase or sentence which summarizes the main idea of the paragraph. Spell out the missing letters of the word on your Answer Sheet.Paragraph OneMany banks are preparing ―online branches‖, which means that people will be able to take care of their banking business through their home computers. At these online branches, customers will be able to view their accounts, move money between their accounts, apply for a loan, and get current information on products such as credit.36. What can be realized ______at ―online branches‖.Paragraph TwoBy the 17th century people began to leave gold with the local goldsmiths for safe keeping. Receipts of £1 or £5 were issued which could then be converted back into gold at any time. Soon these receipts began to circulate as banknotes.37. The origin______ of banknotes.Paragraph ThreePop Art was defined by images of material goods and popular culture. Pop artists rejected the serious nature of the art world. They painted or printed everyday images of things that usually are not considered art. These images included photographs from magazines, drink advertisements and drawings from popular comic strips.38. I ntroduction____ of Pop Art.Paragraph FourIn the U.S. today, it is common to pay one fourth to one third of family‘s income on the place to live. Big houses are more expensive than smaller ones. And houses closer to the center of big cities are more expensive than the ones in the suburbs or in small towns.39. The cost_______ of housing in the U.S. today is very high.Paragraph FiveA new public health report concludes there is no safe level of environmental tobacco smoke. One of the nation‘s top public health physician says inhaling someone else‘s tobacco smoke leads to an immediate chain of biological events that can lead to disease in a non-smoker and even death.40. Expert warns __________ against environmental tobacco smoke.Paragraph SixDehydration limits a person‘s ability to work and think. Experts say a reduction of only four or five percent in body water leads to a drop of twenty to thirty percent in work ability. The loss of salt through perspiration also reduces the amount of work that muscles can do.41. Relation_______ between dehydration and person‘s ability to work and think.Paragraph SevenHard war situation finally forced Germany to make the decision that would bring the United States into the war. It decided to use its submarines to break the British blockade. The submarines would attack any ships that came near Britain. This included ships from neutral countries, like the United States.42. Germany adopted new strategy_________ in hard situation.Paragraph EightThe Tata Group is made up of 96 companies that employ more than 200,000 people. Tata operates in more than 54 countries. Its companies run hotels, provide engineering services and business advice. They also make cars and steel, among other things.43. The Tata Group is involved in various __________ industries.Paragraph NineAnxiety is normal. Y ou just have to prevent it from getting the best of you. The first step is to learn to relax. If before or during an examination you start to panic, stretch as hard as you can, tensing the muscles in your arms and legs, and then suddenly relax all of them.44. How one should handle __________ anxiety.Paragraph TenElectronic mail can eliminate hours of frustrating ―telephone tag‖ and enable people to communicate across time-zones with ease. It also substitutes for busy fax machines that print out piles of paper which are often misplaced or misdirected. With electronic mail, the message appears upon the computer screen of the individual being contacted.45. People benefit__________ from electronic mails a lot.IV. T ranslation.

Self-esteem (自尊) and Self-confidence ① Think back to when you did something new for the first time.Self-confidence isn’t always what we think it is.Many experts say that self-confidence and self-esteem are different.Self-confidence is about what we can do byvirtue of our efforts.It grows along with the quality of the effort.② Self-esteem is more fundamental (基本的) and is about the feeling of being worth something, just because we are who we are, and not because we have done something.A good sportsman can have a huge success and self-confidence, because .he’s good at his sport.In the same time his self-esteem can be low, if his parents have never recognized and diveasured him for the person he is deep inside, but only for his performances in sports.③ Build self-esteem if you were not born with it.Some peoplejust have it, as if they were born with it.They talk in front of a crowd of people, sell themselves at job interviews or start an interesting conversation with people they’ve never met before.④ Self-confidence isn’t something you receive as a birthgift.It’s something you develop gradually as you turn over the pages of the thick book of life.If you work goal-directed to improve your belief in yourself, you’ll eventually build up your courage to do what self-assured (自信的) people find natural, instead of developing pounding hearts, breathing difficulties and divembling hands.⑤ Regardless of fear and shyness you’ll have to get out of your hiding to improve your self-confidence.Be more visible to your surroundings.Do something else than you used to.Try yourself in different situations.We all have many great abilities that just have to be exposed.Task l 16.Paragraph ①:17.Paragraph ②:18.Paragraph ③:19.Paragraph ④:20.Paragraph ⑤:Task 221.Self-confidence is about ______.22.Self-esteem is about ______.23.A good sportsman may ______.24.A man with high self-esteem is more likely to ______.25.To get out of our hiding we need to ______.参考答案:【文章导读】本文主要讲述了自尊和自信是什么、它们是怎样形成的、如何去培养自尊自信。

In all the world he owned just the clothes he stood up in, a full suitcase and a bank account. Arriving anywhere with these possessions, he might just as easily put up for a month or a year as for a single night. For long stays not less than a month, he might take a furnished flat, sometimes even a house. But whatever the case was, he rarely needed anything he did not have with him.Becket had one occasional anxiety; he suspected that he owned more than would fit comfortably into the suitcase. Having no use for choice or variety, he kept just a raincoat, a suit, a pair of shoes, a few shirts and some socks; no more in the clothing line. He bought and read many books and left them wherever he happened to be sitting when he finished them.Becket was a professional traveler, interested and interesting. He was not the type to “do” a country in a week or a city in three days. He liked to get the feel of a place by living in it, reading its newspapers, watching its TV and discussing its affairs. He always tried to make a few friends-if necessary even by stopping a suitable-looking person in the street and talking to him. It worked well in about one case out of ten. Though Becke t’s health gave him no cause for alarm, he made a point of seeing a doctor as soon as he arrived anywhere. “A doctor knows a place and its people better than anyone, “ he used to say.Becket was an artist as well. He painted pictures of the places he visited and , when he had gathered enough information, he wrote about them. He sold his works tonewspapers and magazines. It was an agreeable sort of life for a good social mixer, and as Becket never stayed anywhere for long, he enjoyed the satisfying advantage of paying very little in taxes.21 What do we know about Becket’s possessions?A He carried all of them with him.B He wanted to have more clothes.C He left all his belongings at home.D He carried some of them with him.22 Becket would rent a flat when he _______.A was to stay over a monthB could not find suitable hotelsC was to put up for several nightsD planned to stay at least for a year23 When Becket tried to make friends with strangers in the street, _______.A most people felt very pleasedB his attempts failed in most casesC he preferred good-looking peopleD many people stopped to talk with him24 Judging from the passage, Becket made a living by ______.A travelingB social workC painting and writingD collecting information25 As far as taxes were concerned, Becket probably________.A hated to pay any taxesB enjoyed paying very littleC traveled abroad and paid noneD felt ashamed of not paying anyPassage TwoA gray sweater hung limply (无生气地)on Tommy’s empty desk, a reminder of the miserable boy who had just followed his classmates from out third-grade room. Soon Tommy’s parents, who had recently separated, would arrive for a conference on his failing schoolwork and troublesome behaviors. Neither parent knew that I had arranged for the other to come.Tommy, an only child, had always been happy, cooperative and an excellent student. How could I convince his parents that his recent failing grades represented a broken-hearted child’s reacti on to the separation and coming divorce of the two he so dearly loved?Tommy’s mother entered and took one of the chairs I had placed near my desk. Soon the father arrived. Good! At least they were concerned enough to be prompt. A look of surprise and impatience passed between them, and then they pointedly ignored each other.As I gave a detailed account of Tommy’s behavior and schoolwork, I prayed for the right words to bring these two together, to help them see what they were doing to their son. But som ehow the words wouldn’t come.Then I found a crumpled (揉成一团的)tear-stained sheet stuffed in the back of Tommy’s desk. Silently I smoothed it out and gave it to Tommy’s mother. She read it and then without a word handed it to he husband. He frowned. Then his face softened. He studied the scrawled words for a long time.At last he folded the paper carefully, placed it in his pocket, and reached for his wife’s outstretched hand. She wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled up at him. Tears welled up in my eyes, but neither seemed to notice. He helped her with her coat and they left together.It was the sheet of yellow copy paper covered with the painful outburst of a small boy’s troubled heart that helped me. On both sides of it was single sentence written over and over again:”Dear Mom…Dear Daddy…I love you…I love you…I love you.”26 The writer of the passage was Tommy’s ______.A parentB teacherC classmateD schoolmaster27 The writer believed that in the past Tommy had been ______.A a careless and impossible sonB a flexible and cooperative childC a cheerful and outstanding studentD a disrespectful and aggressive boy28 In the writer’s opinion, the gray sweater hanging limply on the desk is a sign of Tommy’s _____.A low spiritsB failing schoolworkC inactive personalityD troublesome behaviors29 B efore Tommy’s parents arrived, the writer ______.A knew they would soon reuniteB was sure that they would comeC decided to show them the tear-stained paperD had found out the cause of Tommy’s misery30 The writer regarded the changes in Tommy’s school performance as the result of his parents’ ____.A divorceB separationC neglectfulnessD soft-heartednessPassage ThreeThe modern age is an age of electricity. People are so used to electric lights, radios, televisions and telephones that it is hard to imagine what lift would be like without them. When there is a power failure, people grope about in the dark, cars hesitate in the streets because there are no traffic lights to guide them and food spoils in silent refrigerators.Yet, people began to understand how electricity works only a little more than two centuries ago. Nature has apparently been experimenting in this field for millions of years. Scientists are discovering that the living world may hold many interesting secrets of electricity that could benefit humanity.All living cells send out tiny pulses of electricity. As the heart beats, it sends out electric pulses. They form an electrocardiogram (心电图), which a doctor can sstudy to determine how well the heart is working. The brain , too, sends out brain waves of electricity, which can be recorded in electroencephalogram(脑电图). The electric currents produced by most living cells are extremely small-often so small that sensitive instruments are needed to record them. But in some animals, certain muscle cells have become so specialized in producing electricity that they do not work as muscle cells any more. When large numbers of these cells are linked together, the effects can be astonishing.The electric eel-a long thin fish with slippery skin-can produce amazingly strong electricity. It can send an electric current as high as eight hundred volts through the water in which it lives. As many as four-fifths of all the cells in the electric eel’s body are capable of producing electricity, and the strength of the shock depends on the length of its body.31 The phrase “grope about” (line 3, para. 1) could be replaced by ____.A feel aboutB move aboutC walk awayD run away32 When talking about power failures, the author mentions problems related to _____.A radios and televisionsB cars and telephonesC radios and telephonesD refrigerators and traffic lights33 The author mentions electric eels ______.A to warn the reader to stay away from themB to describe a new source of electrical powerC as an example of electrically charged dangerous animalsD as an example of animals capable of producing electricity34 Electric pulses of the eel are produced by its _____.A skinB heartC brainD cells35 The str ength of the eel’s electric shock has to do with ____.A the eel’s ageB the eel’s weightC how long the eel isD the water it lives inPART TWOIV Word Spelling36. 肺n. l_ _ _37 批准,造成n. a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _38 使混乱,混淆v. c _ _ _ _ _ _39 而且,此外adv.
