One step is tomake sure that the house seems a lived-in one. Living room curtains should be pulled down only half-way. Bedrooms thatusually have the curtains pulled down at night should be left down . Another is to make surethat all outside locks are thedead-bolt type (双保险) . Still another is to leave several 100W lights burning and make sure that one is in the kitchen.Lights that turned on and off by themselves are the best. Then, too, it is a good idea to leavethe radio turned on and setto a talking station. Any type of speaking makes a thief think twice before trying to enter. Finally, while away on holiday,make sure that nothing collects in front or in the house. Particularly, make certain that the newspaper is stopped and thata trusted neighbour has been asked to pick up the mail. Thieves are especially quick to notice piled-up newspapers andoverpiled mail boxes.36. Why did the writer begin this piece with question?A. Because he wanted to catch the readers' attention.B. Because he wanted to have the readers guess the answer before reading.C. Because he wanted to sum up (概括) the topic of the piece.D. Because he wanted to make the readers understand him better.37. The word "live-in" in this passage means ______________.A. left emptyB. lively and cheerfulC. now being used by peopleD. laid inside38. What does the writer advise the people to do?A. Ask a neighbour to pick up the daily mailB. Make sure to have lights that turn on and off by themselves.C. Make sure the newspaper is handed over every day.D. Pull the living room curtains down.39. The most important room to leave a light burning in is the _________.A. bedroomB. kitchenC. living roomD. sitting-room( B )Mr Richards has worked in a small seaside town for about ten years and he and his wife have a comfortable house near thesea.During the winter they would be quite happy, but every summer a lot of their relatives used tospend holiday in their house, and it was much cheaper than staying in hotel . Finally one day in June Mr Richards complained to a clever friend of hiswho lived in the same p lace. "One of my wife's cousins is going to bring her husband and children and spend ten days withus next month again. How have you prevented all your relatives from coming to live with you insummer ?" "Oh,"the friendanswered, "that is not difficult. I just borrow money from all the rich ones, and lend it toall the poor ones. After that,they seldom come again." Hearing this Mr Richards smiled.40.

Gradually Mr Richards succeeded in keeping his relatives out in summerD. sNone of Richards' relatives came to the seaside town for their holidays again( C )I wonder why American towns looks so much alike that I sometimes mix them up in my memory. Thestandard influence(影响)of massproduction whose agents(代理商)are the travellingsalesman, the mail-order house, the five-and-ten cent stores, the chain stores, the movies canhardly explain it. If you staytwo days in Bologna and in Ferrare, or in Arles and in Avignon, you will never mix them up inall your life. But it may wellhappen that after you spend two days in St.Louis and in Kansas City the appearances of thesetwo cities soon mix up. I thinkthe reason for this is that these towns have not yet had time enough to develop their owncharacters. Similarly, children aremuch less different from each other than grown people.44. Which two of the following towns look so much alike?A. Bologna and FerrareB. Arles and AvignonC. St. Louis and Kansas CityD. Bologna and St. Louis45. In line 4 the word "it" refers to ____________.A. standard of townsB. similarity of townsC. people's memoryD. mass production46. American towns look very much alike because of ____________.A. the standard influence of mass productionB. their different appearancesC. not being fully developedD. having everything in common( D )Millions of stars are travelling about in space. A few form groups which journey together, butmost of them travel alone.And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For themost part each star makesits journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well overa million miles from itsnearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhereneat it.We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering(漫游) through space, happened to comenear our sun, Just as the sun and the moon raise tides(潮汐)on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on thesurface of the sun .But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in ouroceans; a large tidal wavemust have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the causeof the disturbance(动荡) came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before thestar began to move away again,its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off smallparts of itself into space.These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets(行星).47. Millions of stars are _______________.A. following a regular path in spaceB. moving about without a fixed courseC. seldom wandering about in the universeD. always travelling together48. Some two thousand million years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because__________.A. a large tidal wave of a star travelled over the surface of the sunB. another star happened to come near the sunC. the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earthD. the star moved away from the sun49. The article suggests that _____________ .A. our earth exists before the sunB. how space formedC. no one knows where the earth comes fromD. our earth used to be a high mountain on the sun50. The expression "the cause of the disturbance" refers to _________.A. the large tidal waveB. the powerful tidal pullC. the star coming near the sunD. one of the sun's planets51. In this article, the writer mainly wants to tell the readers __________.A. that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine itB. how the high mountains were formed on the sunC. why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerfulD. where the planets in the universe came from( E )Contacts(交往) between Japan and the rest of the world have grown a great deal in the twentieth century. In the last thirtyyears, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreigncompanies now have offices inJapan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world.Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder theforeign businessman and makedoing business in Japan difficult for foreigners.The American businessman, for example , wants of start talking business immediately . He wantsquick decisions. He does notwait. The Japanese, on the other hand , likes to arrive at decisions gradually after giving them a great deal of thought.Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means "Yes" or "No". This is becauseof cultural difference for a Japanese to say "No" directly.In English, it is easy to say "No" to something we do not want to do. But in Japan it is verydifficult to say "No". Torefuse an invitation or a request with "No", or a similar phrase, is felt to be impolite. Itis thought to be selfish(自私)and unfriendly. So instead of saying "No" directly, the Japanese have developed many ways toavoid saying "No". Theseenable them to avoid hurting other people's feeling. However, this often makes communicationwith the Japanese difficultfor foreigners to understand and follow.52. Paragraph one tells us that ______________ .A. It is not always easy for foreigners to do business in JapanB. Japan is a very important country for businessmenC. business contacts between Japan and the West are importantD. Japanese businessmen do business all around the world53. The word "bewilder" in paragraph 2 probably means _________.A. tireB. interestC. puzzleD. surprise54. From the passage we can know that _____________.A. American businessmen do things more quickly than Japanese onesB. American businessmen like to say "Yes" and "No"C. Americans usually say what they are thinkingD. Americans do not express themselves clearly55. The passage tells us that ________.A. Japanese businessmen are good at businessB. foreign businessmen should first try to understand JapaneseC. foreign businessmen must be more politeD. if you want to succeed you must learn from Japan第四部分：写作第一节：短文改错此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over very long period of time it is likely thatman's eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with use. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.36. The passage mainly tells us that____.A. man's life will be different in the futureB. future man will look quite different from usC. man is growing taller and uglier as time passesD. man's organs' functions will be one the wane37. What serves as the evidence that man is changing?A. Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.B. Man's hair is getting thinner and thinner.C. Man's arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.38. The change in man's size of forehead is probably because____A. he makes use only 20 % of the brain's capacity.B. his brain has grown larger over the past centuries.C. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due time.D. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on.39. What is true about a human being in the future?A. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C. His fingers grow weaker because he doesn't have to make use of them.D. He thinks and feels in different way.40. It is implied that ____.A. human beings will become less attractive in the future.B. less use of a bodily organ may lead to its degenerationC. human beings hope for a change in the future lifeD. future life is always predictable.BWith the steady increase in the amount of leisure time that people enjoy today, the importance of businesses that deal with leisure products and services is also steadily increasing. One of the biggest such industries is the tourist industry. Providing transportation and accommodations for tourists ——and guides, brochures, souvenirs ——is one of the major industries in many countries. Since people are now having longer vacations and are more and more interested in seeing other parts of the world, this business will no doubt continue to grow. Another industry obviously devoted to leisure is entertainment. Movies, TV shows, concerts and plays are usuallyintended for our leisure. The same can be said of most books, except textbooks. Professional sports make money because people pay to watch them in their free time. This list could be greatly extended. But even among these industries, we have mentioned only part of the picture. The people who make the TV sets and build the theatres and tourist hotels are as much a part of the leisure industry as the singers or the hotel clerks.41. What makes leisure business important according to the passage?A. People's leisure time is increasing.B. More and more people begin to show great interests in seeing other parts of the world.C. Improved transportation and accommodation conditions.D. Longer vacations are offered than before.42. What do we know about entertainment from the passage?A. It is the biggest leisure industry.B. Movies, TV shows, concerts and books are usually intended for our leisure.C. People are usually reluctant to pay to watch professional sports.D. Making TV sets and building theatres are also part of entertainment industry.43.What's main idea of this passage?A. With people having more leisure time, tourist industry becomes the biggest industry in many countries.B. With people having more leisure time, entertainment industry becomes one of the major industries in many countries.C. With people having more leisure time, leisure business is becoming more important in economic life.D. With people having more leisure time, leisure business list is being extended.CThirty years ago not many people would have dreamed of doing the repairs and decorations in their own homes. In those days labor was fairly cheap and most people would have thought it worthwhile to employ a professional painter and decorator, unless of course they were either very hand up or were in the trade themselves. Today, however, it is quite a different story. Men and women in all walks of life turn their hands to all sorts of jobs round the house including painting, papering, putting up shelves and wall units, and tiling walls and floors. Some people with no professional training of any kind have even successfully built their own houses. These jobs have been made easier today by the introduction of prepared materials, which require the minimum amount of skill to use. In every high street through out Britain nowadays there is at least one “Do-it-Yourself” shop containing a vast range of timber, tiles, paints, wallpapers and floor coverings besides tools of every description including power drills and many accessories. “Do-it-Yourself” is a booming business; all these shops do a roaring trade and look like continuing to do so. Probably the main reason for the craze is the high cost of present-day labor and the shortage of building firms willing to do small jobs.44.Why did people employ professional workers to decorate homes thirty years ago?A. Because they could not do it themselves.B. Because professional workers were very cheap.C. Because they had no time.D. Because professional workers could do much better.45.Thirty years later what changes took place?A. People could do everything themselves.B. Few people chose to be a professional workerC.

Besides the latest information, I 'd love to appreciate beautiful exotic sceneries and enjoy the evening with my favorite singers, actors and hosts. It was the advertisement that frustrated me. Ad is a great annoyance of watching television.In the first place, the ads waste time. Generally speaking, at least 5 or 6 minutes is lost when watching the ads during a single news program, and usually 10 to 15 or even more during a good movie. In the second place, the ads often interrupt the viewer. The viewer may forget the situation of a show because of frequently inserted ads; even worse, the watcher may lose his pleasant mood when the ads come on one after another, which can bring negative psychological influence such as disappointment, depression, anxiety and so on so forth. Besides, the ads make many products look more appealing than they really are, some of which even look so disgusting. For example, an expensive car is made to seem luxurious, or a bad product like deodorant is made to look very good by showing a beautiful amazing lady taking shower! Therefore, the television viewer must be aware and critical of the ad in order to endure them.48.Why the author was one of the TV fans in the past?A. Because he could stay with his favorite stars the whole evening.B. Because he could travel the world without going out.C. Because he could get the news which couldn't be found on newspapers.D. Because he could make friends on TV.49.

Ads are frustrations during watching TV.B. Ads occupy too much viewer's time when they watch TV……C. Ads often cause interruptions wh ich will destroy the viewer's mood……D. Ads present the viewer much information about the best products.51. What can we infer from the passage?A. Ads time should be reasonably controlled.B. More and more people choose not to watch TV.C. Programs on TV are not worth watching.D. Ads mustn't be showed on TV at all.EMcDonald's is the world single biggest food provider with annual sales of around $12.4bn. And the company's symbol Ronald McDonald is now （or so the company claims）the word's most recognized person after Santa Claus.The first McDonald's restaurant was opened in San Bernardino, California, in 1948 by brothers Mac and Richard “Dick” McDonald. Mac ran the restaurant side; Dick was the marketing genius. He had already invented the drive-in laundry and had been the first person to use neon lights in advertising. Now he spotted the gap in the post-war, baby-boom market for cheap, family-orientated restaurants with simple menus, standardized food and efficient service.After a slow start, business began to boom. By 1954, the brothers were joined by another entrepreneur, a kitchen equipment salesman called Ray A Kroc who owned the franchise to the Multimixer, milk shake maker used throughout the McDonald's chain. A year later, Kroc had bought the McDonald brothers' chain of 25 franchises for the equivalent of around $70m（￡44m）. Dick remained with the company until the Seventies, when he and Kroc fell out over Kroc's claim that the chain was his creation.Today, an almost Stalinist cult of personality surrounds Kroc （who died in 1984）at McDonald's, while the brothers who gave the company its name have all but been written out of its history. But though Kroc did not found McDonald's, he was certainly responsible for the empire-building philosophy which led to its world domination. He ushered in such essential contributions to international cuisine as the Big Mac （1968）and the Egg McMuffin （1973）; and helped launch Ronald McDonald ——“in any language he means fun” —— on to television in 1963.Every three hours, a new McDonald's franchise opens somewhere in the world; it can be found in more than 100 countries including India （vegetarian-only to avoid offending the non-beef-eating populace）and Israel （non kosher, despite fierce local objection）. McDonald's chain embodied the thrusting, can-do spirit of Fifties America with staff mottoes such as “If you've got time to lean, you've go time to clean.”52. McDonald's was founded _____.A. by a kitchen equipment salesman .B. in California.C. by a marketing genius called Dick McDonald.D. after the first World War.53. What do we know about McDonald's brothers?A. They were not McDonald's founders although they named the restaurant.B. Their business was still in depression after several years.C. They had clear job separation on business.D. They sold their restaurant to a salesman in 1954.54. Which is not Kroc's contribution to McDonald's ?A. He launched the restaurant image Ronald McDonald on to television.B. Under his lead, international cuisine as the Big Mac and the Egg McMuffin earned worldwide fameC. He spotted the gap in postwar market for cheap, family-orientated restaurants.D. He built McDonald's empire with a philosophy which led to its world domination.55. Which statement is true according to the passage?A. The single biggest food provider was however, not named after its founderB. The international cuisine as the Big Mac, a beef hamburger, is provided every chain restaurant in the world.C. Employees in McDonald's have no time to lean.D. The symbol Ronald McDonald, means fun in any language, is said to the word most recognized person after Santa Claus.56. This passage is mainly concerned with _____.A. brief history of McDonald's.B.

Both use actors and dialogue and scenery. But if you try to make a film by setting up a camera in front of the stage, you will find it won’t work. A film made in this way will leave the audience cold. And even worse you’ll b3e wasting a powerful tool --- the camera.A stage is actually a box. One side of the box has beenremoved so the audience can see what’s going on inside. The actors remain at a fixed audience. In the film, however, the camera can bring the audience up close and fix their attention on small but important things: a frightened look, a whisper, a trembling of hands.The camera offers the film maker freedom allowing him to move easily across barriers(界限) of time and space. He can show his action in real cities and on real farms. He can also use the camera to change the scene dozens of times in one film. No expert of the stage can do this.36. The main idea of the text is that ________ .A. stage plays and films are two different kinds of artB. it is always disappointing to turn play into filmsC. films have certain advantages(长处) over stage playsD. the camera has made film making easy and possible37.
