(20 points)Passage 1Dear Sir or Madam:I should like to have you consider my application for the position of accountant that you advertised in the April 26th issue of the Times.I am a graduate of the Oriental School of Commerce with seven years accounting experience in two responsible positions. The details of my education and experience are given on the enclosed sheet.While my experience has been largely in manufacturing, I have had a great desire to get into the employ of trading company because of the wider field of work and the greater opportunity for broadening one’s knowledge of how business is done.After three years’ experience with the Yokohama Steel Company, I took a position with Douglass & Elliot. During the four years that I have been with this firm, I have gained a good knowledge of manufacturing accounting and have been promoted several times.May I have an interview at your convenience to substantiate these statements and to answer your questions?Very truly yoursJohn1.According to the passage, which of the following is true_____?A.The Times will employ an accountant.B.John has seven years’ accounting experience.C.John worked in Yokohama for four years.D.John studied in the Orient School of Commerce for six years.2.Paragraph three implies that _____.A.John plans to do business some dayB.John doesn’t hope to be only a good accountantC.John has a good knowledge of how business is doneD.John is interested in manufacturing3.The purpose of writing Paragraph four is to show that _____.A.John is a good accountantB.John plans to do business some dayC.John is a top student in the Orient School of CommerceD.John has worked for some famous companies4.The word “substantiate” means______.A.verifyB. justifyC. impressD. elaborate5.Which of the following best describes the passage as whole?A.It is an application letter.B.It is an order letter.C.It is a sales letter.D.It is a public relations letter.答案：1. B 2. B 3. A 4. A 5. APassage 2More episodes of absent-mindedness—forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just entered a room----are caused by a simple lack of attention, says schacter. “you’re supposed to remember something, but you haven’t encoded it deeply.” Encoding, Schacter explain, is a special way to pay attention to an event to a major impact on recalling it later. Failure to encode properly can create annoying situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and don’t pay attention to what you did because you involved in a conversation, you will probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your wardrobe(衣柜) . “Your memory itself isn’t failing you.”Says Schacter. “Rather, you didn’t give your memory system the information it needed.”Lack of interest can also lead to absent-mindedness. “A man who recites sports statistics from 30 years ago,” says Zelinski, “may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox.” Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment, and memory relives on just that.Visual cues can help prevent absent-mindedness, says Schacter. “But be sure the cue is clear and available.”He cautions. If you want to remember to take a medication with lunch, put the pill on the kitchen table---don’t leave it in the medicine chest and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket.Another common episode of absent-mindedness, walking into a room and wondering why you’re there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. “Everyone does this from time to time.” Says Zelinski. The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room, and you’ll likely remember.6.Why does the author think that encoding properly is very important?A .It helps us understand our memory system better.B. It enables us to recall something fro our memoryC. It expands our memory capacity considerablyD. It slows down the process of losing our memory7.One possible reason why women have better memories than men is that ___________A. they have a wider range of interestsB. they are more reliant on the environmentC. they have an unusual power of focusing their attentionD. they are more interested in what’s happening around them8. A note in the pocket can hardly serve as a reminder because__________A. it will easily get lostB. it’s not clear enough for you to readC. it’s out of your sightD .it might get mixed up with other things9.What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. if we focus on our attention on one thing, we might forget anotherB. memory depends to a certain extent on the environmentC. repetition helps improve our memoryD. if we keep forgetting things, we’d better return to where we were10.What is the passage mainly about?A. process of gradual memory lossB. the causes of absent-mindednessC. the impact of the environment on memoryD. a way of encoding and recalling答案：6. B 7. D 8. C 9. A 10. BⅥ. Short answer questions (10 points)Directions: in this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statement. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the question or complete the statement in the fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words)Some people are born with the belief that they are masters of their lives. Others feel they are at the mercy of fate. New research shows that part of the feelings are in the genes. Psychologists have long know that people confident in their ability to control their destinies are likely to adjust well to growing old than those who feel that they drift on the currents of fate. Two researchers who questioned hundreds of Swedish twins report that such confidence, or lack of it, is part genetic and partly draw from experience. They also found that the belief in bland luck—a conviction that coincidence plays a big role in life—is something leaned in life and has nothing to do with heredity.The research was conducted at the Karolinska Institution(better known as the body that annually awards the Noble Prize for medicine) by Nancy Pedersen of the Institution and Margaret Gatz, a professorof psychology, and was published in the United States in the Journal of Gerontology.People who are confident of their ability to control their lives have an “internal locus of control,” and have a better chance of being well adjusted in their old age, said Pedersen. An “external locus of control”, believing that outside forces determine the course of life, has been linked to depression in later years, she said. “We are trying to understand what makes people different. What makes some people age graceful and others have a more difficult time?” she said.The study shows that while people showed that while people have a inborn predilection(爱好,偏袒)towards dependence and self-confidence, about 70%of this personality trait is affected by a person’s environment and lifetime experience. Pedersen’s studies, with various collaborators, probe the aging process by comparing sets of twins, both identical and fraternal, many of whom were separated at early age. The subjects were draw from a roster first compiled about 30 years ago registering all twins born in Sweden since 1886. The complete list, which was extended in 1971, has 95000 sets of twins.1. Compared with other people, people confident in their ability are likely toAdjust well to growing old2. What do people who lack of their confidence think of their future?Outside forces determine the course of life.3. In addition to gene, other reasons resulting in people’s lack of confidence includeA person’s environment and lifetime experiences.4. According to researchers, what is still unknown?______ What makes people different?____________5. What does the word “fraternal” mean?_______________ Different.___________________________VII. Translate the following sentences into Chinese. (15 points)1.Without a well-balanced life a person can neither function properly nor develop into a well-roundedindividual.如果一个人在生活中心态失衡，他既不能很好工作，他的身心也不会得到全面的发展。

You will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and decide whether each of the statements is true or false, or that the information is not given in the passage. Then mark the answer on the Answer Sheet.Renewable EnergyHow does energy use affect the environment?All forms of electricity generation have some level of environmental impact. However, clean energy technologies, including renewable energy and combined heat and power, have fewer impacts than other sources of electricity generation.To learn about the environmental impacts of electricity generation technologies, click on an energy source below.How clean is the electricity I use?In the United States, electricity is generated in many different ways, with a wide variation in environmental impact. Traditional methods of electricity production contribute to air quality problems and the risk of global climate change.With the advent of electric customer choice, many electricity customers can now choose the source of their electricity. In fact, you might now have the option of choosing cleaner, more environmentally friendly sources of energy.How can I make a difference?The energy decisions we make every day can encourage the development of new power sources, save natural resources, and help ensure that the quality of our environment is preserved. In many parts of the country, consumers now have the opportunity to choose the source of the power that is delivered to their home or business—including energy derived from renewable sources. "Renewable energy" generally refers to electricity supplied from renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power (energy supplied by the sun), geothermal (energy created from the extreme heat contained in liquid rock—called magma（岩浆）—within the Earth's core), hydropower (energy derived from the movement of water as it flows downstream), and various forms of biomass (fuel from sources such as trees, wood and agricultural wastes and fuel crops). These energy sources are considered renewable because they are continuously replenished on the Earth.In addition, mobile sources of air pollution—such as cars, trucks, trains and lawnmowers—also contribute to air pollution nationwide and are an important source of air pollution in many urban areas.Hydrogen EnergyUsing hydrogen energy could help address many concerns facing our nation and our world. We believe hydrogen can contribute to resolving these issues for these reasons:Firstly, hydrogen can be made from a variety of domestic feedstocks like water, biomass, coal and natural gas.Second, hydrogen is non-toxic（⽆毒的）, non-poisonous and will not contribute to groundwater pollution. It does not create "fumes" or other harmful emissions; in fact, using hydrogen in fuel cells produces only electricity and pure water.Furthermore, hydrogen is a key enabler for the development and more widespread implementation of renewable energy technologies, resulting in cleaner and more efficient products in the marketplace.Fifty million tons of hydrogen is produced each year worldwide, with nine million tons being consumed in the U.S. The challenge is to bring hydrogen into the everyday lives of customers as they begin to use hydrogen-powered vehicles and other applications.Geothermal EnergyOur earth's interior—like the sun—provides heat energy from nature. This heat—geothermal energy—yields warmth and power that we can use without polluting the environment. Geothermal heat originates from Earth's fiery consolidation of dust and gas over 4 billion years ago. At earth's core—4,000 miles deep—temperatures may reach over 9,000 degrees F.Solar EnergySunlight, or solar energy, can be used directly for heating and lighting homes and other buildings, for generating electricity, and for hot water heating, solar cooling, and a variety of commercial and industrial uses. After the 1973 oil embargo（禁运）, there was a resurgence（复苏，波动再起）of interest in solar energy. Faced with a possibility of scarce oil resources, the United States government allocated $400 million per year, from a mere $1 million per year, for solar energy research. The expenditure is small compared to the expenditure on nuclear research. Currently, there is a need for allocating increased resources in solar research. Compared to the old forms of reducible energy (coal, oil, nuclear), solar energy offers a clean renewable form of energy. This presentation will provide an overview of the past, present and future of solar energy.Wind EnergyWe have been harnessing the wind's energy for hundreds of years. From old Holland to farms in the United States, windmills have been used for pumping water or grinding grain. Today, the windmill's modern equivalent—a wind turbine（涡轮机）—can use the wind's energy to generate electricity.Wind turbines, like windmills, are mounted on a tower to capture the most energy. At 100 feet (30 meters) or more aboveground, they can take advantage of the faster and less turbulent wind. Turbines catch the wind's energy with their propeller-like blades. Usually, two or three blades are mounted on a shaft to form a rotor（旋转部分，旋转器）.A blade acts much like an airplane wing. When the wind blows, a pocket of low-pressure air forms on the downwind side of the blade. The low-pressure air pocket then pulls the blade toward it, causing the rotor to turn. This is called lift. The force of the lift is actually much stronger than the wind's force against the front side of the blade, which is called drag. The combination of lift and drag causes the rotor to spin like a propeller, and the turning shaft spins a generator to make electricity.Wind turbines can be used as stand-alone applications, or they can be connected to a utility power grid（蓄电池电极板）or even combined with a photovoltaic（光电的）(solar cell) system. For utility-scale sources of wind energy, a large number of wind turbines are usually built closetogether to form a wind plant. Several electricity providers today use wind plants to supply power to their customers. Ocean Energy BasicsThe ocean can produce two types of energy: thermal energy from the sun's heat, and mechanical energy from the tides and waves.Oceans cover more than 70% of Earth's surface, making them the world's largest solar collectors. The sun's heat warms the surface water a lot more than the deep ocean water, and this temperature difference creates thermal energy. Just a small portion of the heat trapped in the ocean could power the world.Ocean thermal energy is used for many applications, including electricity generation. There are three types of electricity conversion systems: closed-cycle, open-cycle, and hybrid（混合的）. Closed-cycle systems use the ocean's warm surface water to vaporize a working fluid, which has a low-boiling point, such as ammonia（氨）. The vapor expands and turns a turbine. The turbine then activates a generator to produce electricity. Open-cycle systems actually boil the seawater by operating at low pressures. This produces steam that passes through a turbine/generator. And hybrid systems combine both closed-cycle and open-cycle systems.Ocean mechanical energy is quite different from ocean thermal energy. Even though the sun affects all ocean activities, tides are driven primarily by the gravitational pull of the moon, and waves are driven primarily by the winds. As a result, tides and waves are intermittent（间歇的，断断续续的）sources of energy, while ocean thermal energy is fairly constant. Also, unlike thermal energy, the electricity conversion of both tidal and wave energy usually involves mechanical devices.1.Renewable energy has no environmental impact.a. True.b. False.c.

Allen, two boyhood friends from Seattle, converted BASIC, a popular mainframe programming language, for use on an early personal computer (PC) ,the Altair. Shortly afterward Gates and Allen founded Microsoft, deriving the name from the words “microcomputer” and “software”. Dur ing the next few years they refined BASIC and developed other programming languages. In 1980 International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) askedMicrosoft to produce the essential software, or operating system, for its first personal computer, the IBM PC. Microsoft purchased an operating system from another company, modified it, and renamed it MS-DOS( Microsoft Disk Operating System). MS-DOS was released with the IBM PC in 1981. Thereafter , most manufacturers of personal computers licensed MS-DOS as their operating system , generating vast revenues for Microsoft; by the early 1990s it had sold more than 100 million copies of the program and defeated rival operating systems such as CP/M ,which it displaced in the early 1980s, and later OS/2. Microsoft deepened its position in operating systems with its Windows graphical command program, whose third version, released in 1990, gained a wide following. By 1993, Windows 3.0 and its subsequent versions were selling at a rate of one million copies per month, and nearly 90 percent of the world’s PCs ran on a Microsoft operating system. In 1995 the company released Windows 95, which for the first time fully integrated MS-DOS with Windows and effectively matched in ease of use Apple Computer’s Macintosh OS. It also became the leader in productivity software such as word-processing and spreadsheet programs, outdistancing long-time rivals Lotus and WordPerfect in the process.33.

It was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1937. The movie rights were sold for $50,000. The film, starring Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable and produced by David O. Selznick, premiered in Atlanta in December 1939 after an unprecedented period of advance promotion, including the highly publicized search for an actress to play Scarlett. It won nine major Oscars and two special Oscars at the Academy Awards and for two decades reigned as the top money-making film of all time. Mitchell, who never adjusted to the celebrity that had befallen her and who never attempted another book, died after an automobile accident in 1949.

You might picture a black-and-white movie with a performer dressed in a tuxedo (礼服). Tap dancing might not seem like something popular and modern. If that is how you picture tap, then you have never seen Savion Glover dance! This choreographer (编舞者), dancer, director, and producer has changed the way people think about tap dancing today.Savion Glover was born in New Jersey in 1973. He showed a talent for drumming when he was only four years old, so he began going to school at the Newark Community School of the Arts. By the time he was seven, he had begun taking rhythm tap classes at the Broadway Dance Center in New York. Rhythm tap is a special kind of dance that uses all the parts of the feet to create sounds.When Savion began taking tap lessons, his family could not afford the special shoes he needed. Savion had to wear a pair of cowboy boots to his first lesson! Just a few years later, Savion landed his first role in a Broadway performance, The TapDance Kid.Savion continued working in a variety of areas. He learned much of what he knew about tap dancing from masters like Sammy Davis, Junior and Gregory Hines. He participated in other Broadway productions, and he even made a movie. Savion also became well-known for his recurring role on the children's television show Sesame Street.The style of tap that Savion is best known for is often called hoofing, or street tap. It is a hard-hitting form of tap, and the movements are more acrobatic than those of traditional tap. Savion's work combines elements of jazz, hip-hop, rock-'n-roll, and the blues to create something unique and exciting. People love to watch Savion'sfeet move. It is hard to keep up with them, but that is part of the fun in watching Savion Glover perform.31. What is Savion Glover's major contribution to tap dancing?A) To preserve its well-established form.B) To transform the way of looking at tap dancing.C) To combine music with tap dancing perfectly.D) To introduce rhythm tap to Broadway.32. Why did Savion wear a pair of cowboy boots to his first tap lesson?A) Because he wanted to look different from others.B) Because the role required that he should wear cowboy boots.C) Because it was unnecessary for a beginner to wear dancing shoes.D) Because his family didn't have enough money for dancing shoes.33. Which of the following can best describe Savion according to the passage?A) Childlike. B) Creative. C) Courageous. D) Energetic.34. Hoofing is characterized by ______________ .A) its quick feet movement B) its unique body movementC) its light rhythm D) its being easy to learn35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A) How Tap Dancing Evolves. B) Music and Tap Dancing.C) The Best Hoofer of All. D) Savion and His Broadway Productions.Passage 2Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Imagine you go to the beach and find a sign: "Water Polluted—No Swimming Allowed." That's what happened to actor Ted Danson in 1984. The experience changed his life. Worried that his daughters (then aged 5 and 10) couldn't plunge into the ocean the way he had as a teen, Danson founded the American Oceans Campaign, an organization aimed at protecting Earth's oceans and coastal waters."Our oceans feed the world, cool our planet, regulate climate, and create nearly one-half of the global oxygen supply," Danson says. He's not joking. Fish are the main source of dietary protein for nearly 1 billion people—most of them in developing nations. Oceans absorb and radiate the Sun's heat to help keep Earth's temperature in balance. Microscopic plants (微⽣物) that live on the ocean's surface take in carbon dioxide to make food—and the precious oxygen we need to breathe."Yet each day, billions of gallons of sewage (污⽔), pesticides (杀⾍剂，农药), and industrial chemicals flow into the sea," Danson says. According to a United Nations report on the marine environment, about 80 percent of all marine pollution comes from human activities (like farming and driving) on land. Even if you live hundreds of miles from the nearest seashore, Danson adds, each day, Earth's atmosphere recycles billions of kiloliters of salty seawater and turns it into fresh water. Ocean water evaporates (蒸发) and rises into the atmosphere. There it condenses and falls to Earth as rain or snow. Thisfresh water collects in rivers, streams, and lakes or goes deep into the earth. These are the main sources of our drinking water.Human activities—like mining, forest clearing, farming, and manufacturing—pollute these freshwater sources, too. But it's not too late to turn the tide, Danson says. You can help by conserving water and working to keep it clean.36. What made Danson decide to establish the American Oceans Campaign?A) His daughters' keen interest in swimming.B) His rich knowledge about the oceanic science.C) His experience in being forbidden to swim in the ocean.D) The role he played in a movie about the ocean.37. According to the passage, oxygen is produced _____________ .A) by absorbing and radiating the Sun's heatB) by microscopic plantsC) by creating dietary proteinD) by regulating the climate38. The word "condense" (Line 7, Para. 3) is closest in meaning to " _____________ ".A) absorb B) become liquid C) become heavy D) reduce39. Which of the following is responsible for the pollution of drinking water?A) The recycle of salty seawater. B) The growth of forest.C) The evaporation of ocean water. D) The use of industrial chemicals.40. What is Danson's attitude towards the protection of oceans and coastal waters?A) Hopeful. B) Doubtful. C) Confident. D) Negative.Passage 3Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Few places in the world are more mysterious than Easter Island, located in the Pacific Ocean 2,300 miles from the coast of Chile. Easter Island has 64 square miles of rugged coastline and steep hills. Scientists believe that island began as a volcano. Three extinct volcanoes remain on the island. The largest one rises 1,400 feet high.On Easter Sunday of 1722, Dutch Admiral Jacob Roggeveen and his crew landed on Easter Island aboard the Dutch ship Arena. The astonished crew found dozens of huge stone figures standing on long stone platforms. The statues, some measuring 40 feet tall, were similar in appearance. Their expressionless faces were without eyes. Huge red cylinders (圆柱体) were placed on their heads. Since that time, the island has been a source of mystery to scientists and explorers. Archaeologists (考古学家) believe that three different cultures lived on Easter Island. About 400 A.D., the island was inhabited by a group of people who specialized in making small stone statues.Years later, another civilization tore down these statues and used them to build long temple platforms called ahus. These people carved more than 600 enormous stone busts (半⾝像) of human forms and placed them on the ahus. Some ahus still hold up to 15 statues.Scientists believe that the statues were carved from hard volcanic rock. The statues were made with stone picks made of basalt (⽞武岩). Although the statues weigh many tons each, it is believed that they were moved with ropes and rollers across the island and placed on the ahus. This may be the reason for one island legend about the statues "walking" to their site. About 1670, another group of people invaded the island. These invaders practiced cannibalism (同类相⾷). During this time, many people began living in underground caves where they hid their treasures.Today, Easter Island is governed by Chile, a country of South America. Almost the entire population of 2,000 people lives inthe small village of Hanga Roa on the west coast of the island.41. The author believes that Easter Island _____________ .A) is not a real place B) is not worth scientific studyC) is the result of cannibalism D) is fascinating to study42. How did Dutch Admiral Jacob Roggeveen and his crew feel at the sight of huge stone figures?A) Amazed. B) Excited. C) Indifferent. D) Frightened.43. When did Easter Island begin to attract explorers?A) About 400 A.D. B) About 1670. C) About 600 A.D. D) About 1722.44. According to the author, which of the following is true about ahus?A) People who lived in underground caves built the ahus.B) The ahus was carved with stone picks.C) There is no such thing as ahus.D) The ahus was a place on which statues were placed.45. The author's purpose in writing the passage is most likely to ____________ .A) persuade readers to visit Easter IslandB) inform readers about a trip to Easter IslandC) explain why Easter Island is a source of mysteryD) report the latest scientific findings about Easter IslandSection BDirections:In this section, there is a passage with 10 blanks.

Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please markthe corresponding letter far-each item on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.On the campus, particularly where classes are small, I found a strange informality (不拘礼节，随意) that characterized the relationship between students and their professors. While many students do call their professors "Professor" so-and-so or "Dr." so-and-so, some professors (46) __________ to be called familiarly by their first names.

A good number of instructors even request that students fill out class evaluation forms which (48) _____________ the content and presentation of the course.Some teachers are more dogmatic (武断的) than others, but it is worth nothing that it is often the (49) __________ that teachers encourage students to question, debate and even (50) _____________ their statements.

All the kids in the neighborhood did it, and I liked it a lot. I go to watch people who were generally pretty wealthy. They were businessmen and doctors. I would listen to them talking about things and see how they behaved with each other. It was like a fly on the wall at a meeting.The second job was at a shoe store. I constantly met people from all walks of life and the challenge was exciting. I'd start bringing them different kinds of shoes and get right down thereand put them on their feet. If they didn't like a certain shoe, I always tried to be thinking ahead to a pair they might like better. It was like stepping up to the plate in a baseball game. Every time someone walked into that store, I was going to bat and taking a swing. I never wanted to let a customer get out of that store without buying a pair of shoes to his satisfaction.This job helped teach me an important business lesson: You have to take risks in business. If you take a risk and fail, get up to bat and swing again.1.The author thinks what he has learned from his first job is ____B________.A. how to learn to like a jobB. how to talk and behave properlyC. how to become wealthyD. how to listen to people2.The phrase "people from all walks of life" means people ____D________.A. walking in different waysB. having different interests in lifeC. coming from different parts of the cityD. working in different occupations3.The author thinks his second job is _____A_______.A. challengingB. importantC. differentD. satisfying4.The author compares his second job to ____D________.A. a fly on the wall at a meetingB. stepping into a golf courseC. joining a baseball gameD. taking a bat to swing5.The business lesson the author gets from selling shoes is _____C_______.A. thinking ahead of the customersB. trying every possible way to satisfy a customerC. never be afraid of taking risksD. never let go anyone walking into the shopPassage BAn Extraordinary Change of DirectionMolly Wilson had been a dancer and a mother for many years when she decided to sail round the world to raise money for charity.As a child she had trained as a ballet dancer, but at 15 she had grown too tall for classical ballet, so she became a member of a pop dance team.She got married, and after she had children she retired from show business to bring them up. They grew up, and when they were 18 they left home.She says, “When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I was bored because the children had left home. He was also worried because I had never sailed before. I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race. They had taken part in it, butthey had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia. I wanted to do the wholeten-month journey.”Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadn’t prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced. She tells one story. “One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold. I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck. One of the men couldn’t move because he had broken his leg. They were taken to hospital by helicopter. That was the worst time.”By the end of October last year, she had raised more than £50,000 for charity.She says, “Sometimes I ask myself, what did I do? How did I do it? But then I think, it’s the same as being a dancer. Before I left on the trip, I had trained hard. I had got very fit and had prepared myself completely. Then on the trip I was simply a good team member.”6. What does the word “extraordinary” mean in the title? ____B_____A. Very ordinary.B. Very unusual and surprising.C. Not special.D. Extreme.7.

Which of the following is nearest (closest) in meaning to “rough” in the sentence “One night the sea was very rough …” in Para. 5? ____C_____A. Not exact.B. Difficult.C. Not smooth because of huge waves.D. Pleasant.10. The last paragraph suggests that ____A_____.A. the qualities she needed for the trip were the same as those for a dancerB. many years of dancing had already prepared her for the sail completely, so she needn’t do anything before the journeyC. she should be kind to other team members during the tripD. she should not forget dancing during the trip四．英译汉1.Did you have to wear uniform when you were a child？你小时候非得穿校服吗？2.
