You are required to read the passages below carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1Directions : After reading the following passage, you will find five questions or unfinished statements ( No.46 to No. 50). For each question or statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are required to make the correct choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That' s the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents are not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel free to do something they' ve been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.46. Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because .A. they have to look after their kidsB. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money47. In paragraph 2, a way out means .A. out of dateB. a solutionC. without questionD. a complaint48.

All of the above.50. The passage mainly discusses .A. post-80s couples and their friendsB. post-80s couples and baby-poolingC. post-80s couples and their parentsD. kids and their grandparentsTask 2Directions : This task ( No. 51 to No. 55) is the same as Task l.It is a terrible illustration of man ' s weakness to nature ,and the tsunami(海啸) that struck the Japanese coast in March, 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-waming systems, public education programs and evacuation(疏散) strategies. Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international waming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early waming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it' s close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.51. The first paragraph tells us that .A. man can easily defeat the natureB. tsunamis take place only in JapanC. man' s ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD. the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible52. To prevent tsunami-damage, the following measures can be taken EXCEPTA. designing firm buildingsB. developing early-warning systemsC. developing evacuation strategiesD. keeping the public unaware of the seriousness of tsunamis53.

Which of the following statements is correct according to che passage?A. The total prevention of tsunamis is possible.B. Rich countries are less affected by tsunamis than poor countries.C. Approaching tsunamis can possibly be picked up by sensors.D. An early warning system is effective when a tsunami is close by.Task 3Directions : This task( No. 56 to No. 60) the same as Task l.Tuangou , also called team buying or group buying, is a recently developed shopping strategy starting in China. Several people connect over the Internet and agree to contact a seller of a specific product so that they can buy the same item as a group at a lower price. And the sellers benefit by selling many products at once.When people agree on group buying,individual members of the buying group can vouch for (替………担保)a particular seller’s quality to the rest of the group,therefore Tuangou helps of similar phenomena in Euroupe and NorthAmerica.However,most of the group buying in these places is organized and done not by the team members themselves,but through online go-betweens.56.

What does the word "go-betweens" mean in the last paragraph?A. Online shopping.B. Going from one place to another.C. Traveling between two places.D. Persons or companies that pass messages between sellers and buyersTask 4Directions: This task (No. 61 to No. 65) is the same as Task l.Facial expressions carry meanings that are partly determined by culture. For example, many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do, so teachers in the United States sometimes have trouble knowing whether their Japanese students understand and enjoy their lessons.Another example is the smile. As a common facial expression, it may show affection, convey politeness, or disguise(掩饰) true feelings. But in different cultures. smiles have different meanings. Many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even a suspicious behavior.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places, for American culture a smile is typically an expression of pleasure. Therefore some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don' t smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover emotional pain or embarrassment. Vietnamese people may tell the sad story of how they had to leave their country but end the story with a smile.61. The best title for this passage is .A. Russian CultureB.American CultureC. Facial FunctionsD.Facial Expressions and Culture62. American teachers sometimes have trouble understanding Japandse students in class because Japanese students .A. do not show their emotions as freely as American stydents doB. are similar to American students in showing emotionsc. only express their emotions when permittedD. do not know what to say63.

Friends play an important part in our lives, but we don't know much about how to make friends. As we get to know people, we consider things like age, races, looks and social positions. Thus it is more difficult for people to become friends if there is a big difference in age and background. However, some people don't think these factors are of the most importance.Part V Writing( 25 points)Directions: According to the given information,you are required to write A Letter to a Friend in about 1OO words.

Translate the following paragraph into Chinese: (10 points)Rummaging through the fruit and veg section of my local supermarket, reading the country of origin labels, I am bewildered by the geography of it all. That the fruits of the earth should all be laid out on tidy shelves in this provincial corner of Britain would have been unthinkable a few years ago, yet now it is taken for granted.Once strange and exotic fruits that only the rich could afford, if not now part of everyone’s diet, are certainly part of our everyday shopping experience. So much so that instead of focusing on the novel, I am drawn to the commonplace. Here, among the “humble”vegetables, something strange and disturbing is going on.V.

Reading Comprehension (38 points)Passage 1Clearly if we are to participle in the society in which we live we must communicate with other people. A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society.Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become of one of the dominating factors of contemporary society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications, photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news.No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority. In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into millions of homes. Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing,educating and entertaining.Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part, the vast modern network of communications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back.1. In the first paragraph the writer emphasizes the _________ of face-to-face contact in social settings.A natureB limitationC usefulnessD creativity2. It is implied in the passage that_______A local news used to be the only source of informationB local news still takes a significant placeC national news is becoming more popularD international news is the fastest transmitted news3. which of the following statement is INCORRECT?A To possess information used to be a privilegeB Public libraries have replaced private librariesC Communication means more than transmissionD Information influences ways of life and thinking4.From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is________.A indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass mediaB happy about the drastic changes in the mass mediaC pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaPassage 2I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But how realistic is the dream? Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window issky, or other blocks of flats. Children become aggressive and nervous—cooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don’t even say hello to each other.Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitantsof small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true that you are cut off from the existing and important events that take place in cities. There’s little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on and expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves for the country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds a feeling of isolation, and constant noise batters the senses. But one of its main advantages is that you are at the center of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at half-past nine at night. Some people have found (or rather bought) a compromise between the two; they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life” by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have about as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers they leave behind — they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages.What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring “morning” to the locals as they pass by? I’m keen on the idea, but you see there’s my cat, Toby, I’m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass, I mean, can you see him mixing with all those hearty males down the farm? No, he would rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evening.5. We get the impression from the first paragraph that the authorA used to live in the countryB used to work in the cityC works in the cityD lives in the country6. In the author’s opinion, the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXCEPTA a strong sense of fearB lack of communicationC housing conditionsD a sense of isolation7. The passage implies that it is easy to buy the following things in the country EXCEPTA daily necessitiesB fresh fruitsC designer clothesD fresh vegetables8. According to the passage, which of the following adjectives best describes those people who work in large cities and live in villages?A OriginalB QuietC ArrogantD Insensitive9. Do you think the author will move to the country?A Yes, he will do soB No, he will not do soC It is difficult to tellD He is in two mindsPassage 3Ideas about education are changing in the United States. Education todayis not just a high school diploma or a college degree. Many adults are not interested in going to college. They are interested in other kinds of learning. For them, learning does not end with a diploma.Continuing education gives these adults the opportunity to increase their knowledge about their own field or to learn about a new field. It also gives them a chance to improve their old skills or to learn new ones.Scientists, mechanics and barbers can take classes to improve their work skills. If they know more or learn more, they can get a better job or earn more money.Continuing education classes give more adults the chances to learn new skills. There is usually a large variety of classes to choose from: typing, foreign cooking, photography, auto repair, furniture repair, or swimming. These are only some of the classes available. Some adults take classes for fun or because the class will be useful for them. Other adults take continuing education classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves.Almost any community college or public school system has a continuing education program. There are classes in schools, community buildings or churches. Most classes are in the evening, so working people can attend. The classes are usually small, and they are inexpensive.10. The new idea about education in the U.S. is that__________.A. everyone should get a college degreeB. It’s no use for adults to go to collegeC. a high school diploma is the end of educationD. adults should go on learning after graduating from school11. What’s the purpose for adults to continue their education?A. Enlarge their knowledge and learn new skills.B. Catch up the opportunity to get a higher degree.C. Learn more basic knowledge to get a diploma.D. Make themselves live a more comfortable life.12. Which of the following statement is true?A. There are only a few continuing education classes available for adults.B. Only those who want to get more money should go on with their education.C. People take continuing education can get a good job.D. All the people getting continuing education can get a good job.13. Usually, the continuing education program is given________.A. in a small size and expensivelyB. only for working peopleC. only in community buildings or churchesD. by community colleges and public schools14. The best title for the passage would be _________.A. Continuing Education ClassesB. The Importance of a College DegreeC. A Good Way to Earn More MoneyD. Difference Choices for AdultsPassage 4Human cloning technology could be used to reverse heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages, are not very successfully. Couples go through physically and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.We should be able to clone the bone marrow for children and adults suffering from leukemia. This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technology.We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer.Cloning technology can be used to test for and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for mankind. This new technology promises unprecedented advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefits begin.15．Heart attacks can be treated with human cloning technology by___________.A removing the damaged part of the heartB replacing the old heart with a cloned oneC repairing the heart with cells cloned from healthy onesD giving the patients injections of various medicines16. The word “infertile”(Line 1, Para.2) most probably means“____________”.A unable to give birth to a childB with physical and emotional problemsC short of time and moneyD separated from each other for long17. According to the passage, one of the first expected benefits from cloning technology may be in ____________.A the treatment of heart attacksB the bearing of babiesC the cure of blood diseasesD the detection of gene-related diseases18. Cancer may be cured with the cloning technology by___________.A attacking the diseased cells with healthy onesB controlling the growth of the cellsC detecting disordered genes in the cancel cellsD activating cancer cells by switching them on19. According to the writer, the main problem with the development of human cloning technology is that___________.A it may be out of human controlB it has brought about few benefits so farC people still know little about itD people are afraid of such technologyVII.

More than 5,000 Americans have built homes underground or 5 the sides of hills. Some companies have built 6 in huge caves. School and other buildings have been built underground too.One reason for such buildings is the lack of (缺乏) open land in some 7 areas.Another reason is the lower cost of 8 underground buildings. For both of these reasons, the University of Minnesota has built a building of seven 9 almost 10 underground. It is a building where engineers are 11 with classrooms, offices and a huge laboratory.

For each question there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Group 1Passage 1The American Thanksgiving Day celebration goes back to 1621. In the year, a special dinner was prepared in Plymouth, Massachusetts. The people who had settled there had left England because they were forbidden to keep their religious belief. They came to the new land and faced difficulties in sailing across the ocean. The ship which carried them was called “the Mayflower”. The North Atlantic was hard to travel. There were bad storms and huge waves. With the help of the Indians, they learned to live in the new land. These Puritans, as they were called, had much to be thankful for. They could enjoy religious freedom. They learned how to grow their crops in accordance with the climate and soil. Now when they selected the fourth Thursday of November for their Thanksgiving celebration, they invited their neighbours, the Indian, to join them in dinner. They also wanted to pray God for the new life. They recalled the group of 102 men, women and children who left England. They remembered those who did not live to see the shores of Massachusetts. They thought of the 65 day’s journey which tested their strength.1. The first celebration of a day of Thanksgiving is about _______.A. 100 years oldB. 200 years oldC. 300 years oldD. 400 years old2. Why had they left England?A. Because of religious problem.B. To set up a new religion.C. To learn new farming.D. Because of the Indians.3. The climate and soil in Massachusetts are _______.A. similar to that of EnglandB. different from that of EnglandC. similar to that of PlymouthD. different from that of Plymouth4. They give thanks while remembering _______.A. the new society of IndiansB. their friends who died on the way to the new landC. their former religionD. to invite the Indians5. How long did the trip last?A. 6 weeksB. 2 months or moreC. half a yearD. 102 daysPassage 2The climate of any place is the kind of weather. It usually has over a long period of time.The kind of homes we live in, the clothes we wear, the foods we eat depend on the climate of the place where we live. Climate is complicated; it is affected by many things. If you live near one of the poles, you live in a cold climate, for you do not get as much direct sunshines as you would get farther form the poles. If you live near the equator, you live in a warm or very hot climate, for this is the region where the sun shines almost straight down.How much rain or snow falls makes a great difference to the climate. You may live in a hot, dry land, where little rain falls. This will be a desert. Its climate is quite different from that of a rain forest, which may be the same distance from the equator but rain falls almost every day. The amount of rain that falls or snow, in a cold land depends upon the winds, upon the nearby mountains, and upon the currents in nearby seas. Rainfall depends on many different things.6. “Climate” means ________.A. the weather of a certain placeB. the fine, cloudy, rainy or snowy weatherC. the weather of a certain timeD. the general weather of a place over a long time7. “…even the foods we eat depend on the climate of the place where we live”really means________.A. We eat different foods according to different weatherB. the climate of a place has effected on the foods we haveC. the climate of the place where we live gives us different foodsD. foods are different in different places8. People living near the poles tend _______ those near the equator.A. to have as much sunlight asB. to have less rain thanC. to get less sunlight thanD. to get less snow than9. Rainfalls depend on many things. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?A. The windsB. The nearby mountainsC. The currents in nearby seasD. The kinds of homes we live in10. What may be the best title for the passage?A. Climate and WeatherB. Climate Around the WorldC. ClimateD. Climate in Different CountriesPassage 3In the past, people who graduated from college felt proud of their academic achievements and confident that their degree would help them to find a good job.However, in the past four years the job market has changed dramatically. This year’s college graduates are facing one of the worst job markets. For example, Ryan Stewart, a graduate of San Jose State University, got a degree in religious studies, but he has not gotten any job offers. He points out that many people already working are getting laid off and don’t have jobs, so it’s even harder for new college graduates to find jobs.Four years ago, the future looked bright for his class of 2006. There were many high-tech job opportunities, graduates received many job offers, and they were able to get jobs with high salaries and benefits such as health insurance and paid vacations. However, “Times have changed.It’s a new market,” according to an officer of the university.The officer says students who do find jobs started preparing two years ago. They worked during summer vacations, they have had several short-time jobs, and they majored in fields that are still paying well, such as accounting or nursing.In conclusion, these days a college degree does not automatically lead to a good job with a high salary. Some students can only hope that the value of their degree will increase in the future.11. What did a college degree mean to people in the past?A. It was a proof of their professional skills.B. It would guarantee their quick promotion.C. It built up their confidence in the job market.D. It would help them to start an academic career.12. Ryan Steward has not got any job offer because _______.A. there are too many graduates of his majorB. he wants to find a job with very high salaryC. he has not received a degree in the universityD. the job market has changed greatly since 200213. According to the passage, _______ had the best job prospects in 2002.A. computer scienceB. accountingC. teachingD. nursing14. How did students make preparation for finding jobs?A. They prepared all the timeB. They worked during summer vacationsC. They did short-time jobs.D. Both B and C15. It can be concluded from the passage that ________.A. the value of a college degree has decreased nowB. new college graduates today can’t find jobsC. a college degree can still lead to a good jobD. graduates must prepare early to find jobsPassage 4Jack went to a barber-shop and had his hair cut, but when he came out, he was not happy with the result. When his friend Bob saw him, he laughed and said, “What has happened to your hair, Jack?”Jack said, “I tried a new barber-shop today, because I wasn’t quite satisfied with my old one, but this one seems even worse.”Bob agreed. “Yes, I think you’re right, Jack. Now I’ll tell you what to do when you go into a barber’s next time: look at all the barber’s hair, find out whose hair looks worst, and then go straight to him.”“Why shall I go to him?” Jack asked. “But that would be foolish!”“Oh, no, it wouldn’t,” answered Bob. “Who cut that man’s hair? Just think it. He couldn’t cut it himself, could he? Another of the barbers cut it. So you know he can’t be the worst barber.”16. When Jack went out of the barber’s shop, he was not happy because _______.A. nobody had cut his hairB. the barber hadn’t cut his hair wellC. the barber had cut his hair carefullyD. he was not satisfied with his old barber17. “I tried a new barber-shop today.” means _______.A. this barber-shop was a new oneB. this was the only barber-shop in this townC.

After Jack had his hair cut, he thought _______.A. the new barber-shop was the best oneB. the old barber-shop wasn’t so good as the new oneC. the new barber-shop was the worst oneD. the old barber-shop was the worst one19. Bob told Jack to find out which barber’s hair looked the worst and then go straight to him.Why?A. Because he was certainly the best barber.B. Because he was free all the timeC. Because he was the worst barber.D. Because he wasn’t the worst barber20. From the story we know that ________.A. it’s foolish to have one’s hair cut at a barber-shopB. barbers cut each other’s hairC. barbers never have their hair cutD. a barber always cuts his hair by himselfGroup 2Passage 1I worked my way up the presidency of the Ford Motor Company. When I finally got there, I was on the top of the world. But then fate said to me: “Wait, we’re not finished with you. Now you’re going to find out what it feels like to get kicked off from the top.”On July 13, 1978, I was fired. I had been president of Ford for eight years and a Ford employee for thirty two. I had never worked anywhere else. And now suddenly, I was out of a job.As you go through life, there are thousands of little forks in the road, and there are a few really big forks those moments of thinking, moments of truth. This was mine as I wondered what to do. Should I pack it all in and retire? I was fifty-four years old. I had already accomplished a great deal. I was financially secure. But that just didn’t feel right. I knew I had to carry on.A few months later, I became the president of Chrysler, a company which was almost bankrupt at that time. Fortunately, Chrysler recovered. Today I’m a hero. With strong will, with luck, and with help from lots of good people, I was able to rise up from the ashes.1.

What can you do to help make it happen? What can other people do? Education is one way to help the environment. You can learn about the environment in school. Radio and TV can give you learn. Laws can also help the environment. There are laws against littering and against making the air and water dirty. Other laws help people to save resources. The law lowering the speed limit for cars helps to save fuel.But people don’t h ave to wait for laws to be passed. They can do things on their own. They can protest against products that hurt the environment.Another way to help the environment is to plan for the future. We may have to find new resources. In the future, people may heat their homes with atomic power. Maybe they will use energy from the sun. Without planning, some kinds of environment may not happen. People can act now to help make the future.1. How many ways are there that can help the environment? What are they? ( C )( C )Three. Education, laws and planning for the future.2. Education helps the environment . ( D ) all of the above3. What kind of law helps to save fuel? ( A )The law lowering the speed limit for cars.4.

These are bacteria, the tiny little living plants that are everywhere around us. Bacteria, sometimes called germs, are so tiny that we can see them only under a microscope. But they are so powerful.Like all living things, bacteria need food to grow. When they grow they multiply. A few bacteria become many in a matter of minutes. When bacteria settle on food, they make changes in it. These changes are what we call spoiling.To keep food from spoiling, we must first kill any bacteria that may already be in it. Heat and cooking do this. Next we must keep any bacteria in the air away from the food. So we pack it into cans as airless as we can make them. We seal the cans tight. With no bacteria in the food and no air with bacteria able to reach it, fruits, fish, meat and vegetables will stay unspoiled in a can for years.11. Bacteria can only be seen under a microscope because __________ . ( B ) they are so tiny12. The heating and cooking is done __________ . ( D ) to kill the bacteria already in the food13. How do bacteria multiply ?( A ) Very rapidly14. What are the changes which the bacteria make in food called ?( D )Spoiling15. Food is canned ___________ . ( C )to preserve it for a period of years4.重点The word “sport” first meant something that people did in ….16-20 CABDCThe word ―sport‖ first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during their time the best ones can earn a lot of money.For example, a professional footballer in England earns more than 30,000 pounds a year. The stars earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions can make more than50, 000 in a year. Of course, only few sportsmen can earn as much money as that. It is only possible in sports for individuals, like golf, tennis and motor-racing. Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is this: the stars can earn more money from advertising than from sport. An advertisement for sports equipment does not simply say ―Buy our things‖. It says: ―Buy the same shirt and shoes as …‖ Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their names or a photograph of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time.16. What is the meaning of the word ―sport‖ today according to the passage? ( C ) Organized games.17. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? ( A ) . People play sports whenever they want to.18. What kinds of people are called professional sportsmen? ( B ). Those who are paid for the sport they play.19. When it comes to how much a professional footballer in England can earn, which of the following is true? ( D )The stars earn a lot more than common professional footballers do.20. What does the passage tell us? ( C )C. As time goes on, sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time.5.Jupiter Communications, a market research firm, ..72%....1-5 C D D B CJupiter Communications, a market research firm, reports that 72% of teenagers in the United States will be online by 2003 (Stanton, 2000). This alone indicates that students will learn and communicate electronically more than any previous generation. At the same time, teenagers are not the only digital learners. With the growing number of online courses, the increasing accessibility of computers, and the increasing number of computer users, students of all ages are taking advantage of distance learning or are using computers to enhance the traditional classroom experience.Two things emerge in the study of students’ attitudes toward online learning: individual situations impact students’ perceptions of computer-based learning and students’ varied individual characteristics make it d ifficult to define their perceptions conclusively. For example, some students have their own computers, while others rely on computer labs. Such variation in computer access can result in attitudinal differences. In addition, the purpose of computer use varies. Distance education courses, for example, use computers in different ways than traditional classrooms, which can also affect students’ perceptions. A wide variety of achievement levels and attitudes exist among both online and traditional learners. Although an illusory ―typical learner‖ exists, a variety of factors, including students’ gender, age, and motivation, could explain diffe rent reactions among the student population.1.What will make online learning more and more popular? (C) The increase of computer users.2.Who may become online learners? (D) People of all ages and backgrounds.3.According to the passage, what does "digital learners" mean? (D) Online learners.4.Which of the following is the main factor that makes it difficult to define students' perceptions of online learning definitely?(B) Learners' varied characteristics.5.What is the author's attitude towards online learning? (C) positive6.Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, 6-10 A C B C AEver since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be usedinternationally; spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction. Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people. While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.6.Which of the following best summarizes this passage?(A) When language is a barrier, people will find other forms of communication.7.Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?(C) The deaf and mute do not need sign language for communication.8.Which form other than oral speech would be most commonly used among blind people? (B) Braille.9.How many different forms of communication are mentioned here? (C) 8 — 1010.Sign language is said to be very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally as it doesn't represent _____. (A) spellings7.Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages. 11-15 C C A B DSome people seem to have a knack for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules of grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others. They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so what makes languages so much easier for them to learn? Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learnerswe may discover a few of the techniques that make language learning easier for them.First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or the teacher. They discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They try to learn from their mistakes.Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, they do not wait for a chance to use the language. Instead they look for such a chance. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear and to say strange things. They are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn it.11.The best learners of languages ______. (C) have the best language learning techniques12.People who learn languages easily seem to have a _______ for learning them. (C) knack13.According to the passage the key factor in language learning is probably____. (A) the learner14.Successful language learners are _______, ______ learners with a purpose. (B) independent, active15.Successful language learners learn the language by _____________.( D) trying to communicate and learning from mistakes8.During sleep, the fatigue (疲劳) of the body 16-20 A D D C DDuring sleep, the fatigue (疲劳) of the body disappears and recuperation ( 恢复) begins. The tired mind gathers new energy. Once awake, the memory improves, and annoyance and problems are seen in a better perspective.Some adults require little sleep; others need eight to ten hours in every twenty-four. Infants sleep sixteen to eighteen hours daily and, as they grow older, the amount gradually diminishes. Young students may need twelve hours; university students may need ten. A worker with a physically demanding job may also need ten, whereas an executive worker under great pressure may manage on six to eight. Many famous people are reputed to have required little sleep. Napoleon, Thomas Edison and Charles Darwin apparently averaged only four to six hours a night.Whatever your individual need, you can be sure that by the age of thirty you will have slept for a total of more than twelve years. By that age you will also have developed a sleep routine: a favorite hour, a favorite bed, a favorite position, and a formula you need to follow in order to rest comfortably.Investigators have tried to find out how long a person can go without sleep. Several people have reached more than 115 hours? nearly five days, whereas animals kept awake for from five to eight days have died of exhaustion. The limit for human beings is probably about a week.16.The writer implies that _________.( A) sleep is important for good mental and physical health17.From the amount of sleep Napoleon, Edison and Darwin required, we can infer that_______.( D) they were involved in mentally demanding work18.The amount of sleep required ________. ( D) all of the above.19.According to the passage, the sleeping routine will be built at the age of _________. ( C) 3020.From animal experiments, we can conclude that the final result of the lack of sleep is probably __. ( D) death9.College brings together people from all walks of life. 21-25 A C B D BCollege brings together people from all walks of life. There are so many different types of people in the world but if you go to a college campus, you are sure to find at least one of every kind. The great part about being here with so many different people is that you get to interact with some interesting characters and see how to deal with them. You will meet the peopleyou dread the most, the smart-ass, the brain, or the unique spirit, but no matter who it is that is your worst nightmare to be around you will always be paired up with them in a group project. When you get into the real world you are not going to be able to pick your boss or coworkers. Interacting with these people in college and living with different roommates will help you learn how to cooperate with the people in life you find so unpleasant. College life is fun. The fact that I have been here for a short time just means it has not yet been a life changing experience to me. If I were to give any tips on how to survive, it would not be how to survive college, but how to survive life. I would have to say that one should be outgoing and live life to the fullest. Meet new people whenever you can because they just may be a major influence in your life. Also, get your work done before you go out and party. Lastly, I would have to say, in life if you ever feel lost or alone, talk to someone about it. Everyone gets depressed at times in their life and there is always someone who will listen to your problems.21.What is the theme of the passage? ( A) Relationships in college.22.What does the author say about group projects? ( C) Partners may not cooperate.23.Why does the author recommend meeting many new people? ( B) They may influence your life.24.How would you describe the author's personality? ( D) Optimistic and outgoing.25.What does the author say to do if you're depressed? ( B) Talk to someone about it.10.Women have made great strides since then ….26-30 D B A C CWomen have made great strides since then in achieving political equality. Recently, American feminists have been working hard to achieve social and economic equality as well as political. Their belief is that, as there is nothing that women cannot do just as well as men, they should be shown the same respect and have the same social rights and the same pay as their male counterparts. Anything less is discrimination and sexism.Few American girls agree with the extreme feminists who deride marriage and romantic love, but more and more of them are prepared to live with a man outside marriage, often with the intention of buying a home and marrying only when, between them, they have saved enough money. Young couples today share both the household chores and care of the baby.The old generations, especially those that live in the city suburbs, are bewildered and disturbed by this trend. It is all against the great American tradition of the "home" as the symbol of the unified family.The American woman makes the most of her free time. She helps with political campaigns. She sits on committees. She goes to classes of all kinds, from health foods to English literature, from environmental studies to karate. She swims, plays tennis, and she takes an active interest in her children's education. In most of these activities her companions are other housewives from her neighborhood.There are women executives of some important industries and businesses. In fact there are women in most jobs which were formerly reserved for men. There are women lawyers, doctors, architects, as well as women bus drivers, but the ordinary working women will earn less than a man gets for doing the same job although there is a law which makes this illegal. American girls tend to marry young, which means that 60% of the women in work are married. This also helps to explain why so many young married couples have such a high standard of living.American women seem to have more self-confidence than women from most other countries. For years they have felt no inferiority whatsoever to the male sex. Therefore visitors to the USA rarely meet militant feminists.26.American feminists believe that women have .( D)not got enough social and economical equality as well as political one.27.Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?（B）Most American girls believe that there exists true love between men and women.28.According to the passage, more and more boys and girls choose to get married when .( A )they have made enough money for their marriage29.. In a newly-married couple's family, who might take care of the baby?( C) both wife and husband30.In her spare time, the American woman enjoys being involved in all the following activities except .( C) scientific research11.The names of certain places in the United States …. 31-35 C A B B DThe names of certain places in the United States make people think of big businesses. Detroit, a city in Michigan, means cars. Texas means oil. Wall Street in New York means the stock market and ―big money‖.There is another place-name that is well known in the U.S.A. That is Madison Avenue. Madison Avenue in New York is the place where many advertising companies have their offices. And advertising is one of the biggest businesses in America.The same kinds of things are produced and sold by many different companies in the U.S. Many different companies sell cars; many others sell oil. Many different companies sell soap, tires, and so on. Each company wants the public to buy its products. By advertising these companies make the public interested in what they want to sell.Each company pays advertisers to tell the public about its product. Suppose a company has new breakfast cereal that it wants to sell. In an advertising office on Madison Avenue plans are made for telling the public about this product. The advertising company takes beautiful pictures of people eating the cereal. These pictures appear in newspapers or magazines and also on TV.31.Detroit reminds people of _____________. ( C) cars32.Madison Avenue is very famous because ____________.（A）it is a place where many advertising companies have their offices33.Why do people advertise their products ?（B）Different companies produce and sell the same products.34.The advertising of a new breakfast cereal is mentioned in the passage to show ___________.（B）how a certain product is advertised35.What is the main idea of the passage ? （D）Advertising is a very big business in America.12.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some …. 36-40 B C A D BIt is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.36. According to the passage, two unrelated people randomly taken from the population _______.(B) are very likely to have different intelligence37. The example that two identical twins are very likely as intelligent as each other shows that _____________.(C)blood relationship is very important in determining a person’s intelligence38. What conclusion can be drawn from the example of two twins going to a university and to a factory separately?（A）Environment makes a difference between the intelligence degrees of two twins.39. According to the passage, which of the following statements is correct?（D）People who are not related at all have completely different degrees of intelligence.40. What’s the main idea of this passage?（B）Two identical twins are as intelligent as each other.13. A young man who served as a drum-player in a band, …. 41-45 B D A C BA young man who served as a drum-player in a band, had just married, and he and his wife were looking for somewhere to live. They saw a lot of places, but there was always something that one of them did not like about them. At last, however, they found a new house which both of them really like.

A great French writer has ever said that we should help…. 46-50 B B B A DA great French writer has ever said that we should help everyone as possible as we can because we often need help ourselves. The small can even help the great. To this effect, he tells us the following story.An ant was drinking at a small stream and fell in. She made desperate efforts to reach the side, but made no progress at all. The poor ant, almost exhausted, was still bravely trying her best when a dove saw her. Moved with pity the bird threw her a blade of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus she reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass she heard a man approaching. The man was walking along barefooted and carrying a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove he wished to kill her, and he would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire. He stopped to see what was biting him, and the dove immediately flew away. It was an insect much weaker and smaller than herself that he had saved her life.46.
