Many people even wear special clothes for dinner. So if you are asked out to dinner, you must find out whether you are expected to wear a formal suit. You would feel upset if, when you got there, you were the only person in ordinary clothes.Dinner is generally served at about half past seven. All the members of the family sit down together and are on their best behavior. The guest of honor will sit on the right of the lady of the house. There are two schools of thought as to the seating of the hostess. One is that she sits at the foot of the table but this may mess up the man-woman-man setting order. The other way is for the guest of honor to sit at the foot and the hostess to sit on his right. The wife of the guest of honor will sit on the right of the host. This is subject to change according to the wishes of your employer. During the meal when conversation is carried on, you should try to get into conversation with theperson on your right or left, but you should not try to talk to someone who is a long way from you. Don’t forget to drop your hosts a thank-you note or make a brief phone call.36.

At that time, we didn’t think the accident was serious enough to report, but Mr. Li has returned to his work after an absence of two weeks and is still unable to carry on his normal duties.

Consequently, your claim to compensation（赔偿）under the policy has been forfeited (舍弃、没收).Nevertheless, as an exceptional measure, we have decided to overlook its late submission, though we are bound to say that it should have been clear from Mr. Li’s absence from work that this accident was more serious than you had supposed and that there seems to be no good reason why this claim should not have been made earlier.We are enclosing (附上) a claim form as requested, but must emphasize that future claims cannot be entertained if you cannot comply with the terms of the policy.Yours faithfully,(Signature)44.

In October, two students were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at a Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14-year-old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Dasucah, Kentucky.Most of the expulsions, 56 percent, were from high schools, which have students from about age 13. 34 percent were from junior high schools and 9 percent were from elementary schools, the report said.48.

From this passage we know that _______.A. it breaks the laws for Americans to have gunsB. only soldiers and the police can have gunsC. every American citizen can own gunsD. the US sets a good example in controlling gunsEFour FreedomsBy Franklin RooseveltIn the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms.The first is freedom of speech and expression—everywhere in the world.The second is freedom of every person to worship (崇拜) God in his own way—everywhere in the world.The third is freedom from want, which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants—everywhere in the world.The fourth is freedom from fear, which, translated into world terms, means a worldwide reduction of armaments (武器) to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor—anywhere in the world....This nation has placed its fate in the hands，heads and hearts of its millions of free men and women and its faith in freedom under the guidance of God. Freedom means the supremacy (至高无上) of human rights everywhere. Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose....53.

Discuss both the positive and negative aspects of this impact. You should use your own ideas and examples to support your argument.Sample Essay:The advancement of technology has had profound impacts on our lives, ranging from the way we communicate and learn to the way we work and entertain ourselves. Whiletechnology has brought us numerous benefits, it also has some downsides that cannot be ignored.One of the most significant positive impacts of technology is its role in enhancing communication. With the advent of the internet and social media, people from all over the world can stay connected and share information instantly. This has not only made it easier for individuals to maintain relationships with far-flung friends and family, but it has also enabled businesses to expand their operations globally. Furthermore, technology has revolutionized education, providing students with access to a vast array of resources and enabling them to learn at their own pace.However, the ubiquity of technology also has its downsides. Firstly, it has led to an increase in screen time, which can have negative effects on physical and mental health. People often spend hours scrolling through social media or playing video games, neglecting physical exercise and face-to-face interactions. Secondly, technology can be a distraction, especially for students and professionals. The constant temptation to check notifications or surf the internet can significantly reduce productivity and efficiency.In conclusion, technology has both positive and negative impacts on our lives. While it has made communication, learning, and work more efficient, it has also led to an increase in screen time and distractions. It is, therefore, important for us to be mindful of these impacts and strive to use technology in a balanced and responsible manner.。

Then it is because you do not understand it. Your cat is always trying to communicate to you through its gestures and body language. So to know your cat more, you need to know more about the cat’s body language.The tail is the most important part of your cat’s body; it often shows its mood and intention. If your cat is sweeping its tail in broad gestures, then it means annoyance or impatience at your extreme petting(抚摸). If you continue to hug the cat might g ive you a “bat” with its paws. A rapid sweeping of tail back and forth, right from the center shows an extreme anxiety in your cat. If you find your cat turning its body fully sideways and extending its tail upwards, then be sure that your cat is giving a sign of a conflict with the fellow cats. Often you will find your cat lowering its tail between her legs, which show her complete obedience(顺从的). A raised tail also indicates that your cat wants to be friendly.Along with the tail, the cat’s body gestures speak volumes about its mood and behavior. While bent legs is a sign of defending itself, outstretched legs will show self-confidence and self-assurance. If the cat’s ears are back and the body low, it will show its shame or regret; raised ears will show interest in the happenings around it. If you find your cat with the head completely lowered then it will show that it is boredom and disappointed.36. Your cat is impatient with your petting when it is ________A. raising its tailB. lowering its tail between her legsC. sweeping its tail in broad gesturesD. extending its tail upwards37. The underlined word “bat” refers to ________.A. a kind of animalB. a flying birdC. a hit with somethingD. a wooden stick38. If you find the cat’s ears are back and the body is low, ________.A. it will show that your cat is boredom and disappointedB. it means that your cat is feeling disappointedC. something around is drawing its attentionD. you may see a fight between cats very soon39. What does the third paragraph tell us?A. Importance of tail movement.B. Movement of other body parts.C. Movement of ears.D. Movement of legs.BLONDON(Reuters)—A French woman who had the world’s first partial（部分的）face transplant has spoken of her surprise at seeing her new appearance, the Daily Mail newspaper said on Saturday.The 38-year-old woman underwent（接受）the operation to give her a new nose, chin and mouth at a hospital in the northern French city of Amiens last month.“When I looked at my new face, I knew straight away that it was me,”the paper quoted the woman, who was disfigured（毁容）after her dog injured her badly, as saying. “It was simply amazing to see a nose and mouth on my face.”The woman, who is recovering in a hospital in Lyon, told the paper that the attack of the dog had left her so disfigured that she had been forced to wear a dental mask.People in the street would recoil from her in horror, she said, and even one of her own two daughters found her appearance unbearable. “Old people were the worst, they used to stop and stare at me all the time,” she said. “My elder daughter Lucie just didn’t want to see me—I had to wear a m ask. If I didn’t she refused to see me.”Earlier this week the woman asked journalists to respect her privacy after her operation attracted the media.The paper said the woman now wanted to live a normal life but was worried about what reaction there might be when she leaves hospital.40. What made the French woman so disfigured?A. Her falling over.B. A big fire.C. A car accident.D. Her pet’s attack.41. The underlined word “recoil” in Paragraph 5 probably means “______”.A. laugh atB. move backC. whisperD. scream42. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?A. The operation on the woman proved successful.B. The woman felt amazed when she saw her new face.C. The media have reported a lot about the woman and the operation.D. Before operation, the people who hated to meet her most were her husband and children.43. It can be inferred from the text that the woman ______.A. may still be the focus of attention for some timeB. will never live a normal life after the operationC. dislikes the journalists’ disturbing of her privacyD. needn’t wear a mask any moreCShanghai, China, is home to the world’s tallest woman. Yao Defen, a 36-year-old woman, suffers from a brain tumor(肿瘤) which is believed to be the reason behind her huge height andsize. Defen stands at 7.75 feet tall, which is 2 inches more than Sandy Allen of the United States, who is listed as the world’s tallest woman in the Guinness Book of World Records.Defen’s brain tumor is located in a gland(腺) of the brain that regulates the outlet of growth hormones(荷尔蒙). Because of her tumor, her body was forced to let out an excess(过量) of growth hormones, which lead to her extreme height. This excess of growth hormones has made many of her bones weak and brittle, making it hard for this 36-year-old woman to sit or stand.Defen’s family are poor farmers living in eastern China. And after the story of her extreme height tumor was broadcasted internationally by the Discovery Channel, many doctors in China were willing to award Defen free treatment for her illness. She is now reportedly taking medicine to stop the gland from producing more growth hormones, so she won’t continue to grow.Doctors expect that after her treatment and surgery Defen will shrink 30%. This shrinkage will ease the osteoporosis, a disease that makes bones in the body weak and more likely to break, which will hopefully allow Defen to lead a more normal life.44. From the passage, we learn that ______.A. Defen’s family has difficulty in paying her treatmentB. Defen has suffered from a brain tumor for 36 yearsC. Defen is the tallest woman in the Guinness Book of World RecordsD. Defen’s bones have already broken quite a few times45. According to the passage, which is the best thing that Defen should do to live a normal life?A. Harden her bones.B. Repeatedly take medicine.C. Lie in bed all day.D. Have an operation to remove the brain tumor.46. The underlined word “shrink” in the last paragraph probably means ______.A. draw togetherB. reduce in sizeC. move backD. stop growing47. The best title of the passage is “______”.A. Cure for Head Brain TumorB. Patient Survives from OsteoporosisC. Trea tment for World’s Tallest WomanD. Excess of Growth HormonesDLong before the calculator or even modern math, Egyptians had discovered a way to multiply large numbers quickly. Here’s how it works.Suppose you had this problem: 13×12=? On a sheet of paper, draw a line to separate two columns. Down the column on the left, begin with the number 1. Double it and write 2 below it, then double the 2 and write 4, and so on.Down the column on the right, write the number you are multiplying by (in this case, 12). Under the 12, double it and write 24. Then double the 24 and write the number 48 under it, and so on.Your columns should look like this:1 122 244 488 9616 192Now find the numbers in the left column that add up to the first number in the problem (in this case, 13). The numbers 1+4+8=13, so underline the numbers in the right column opposite thesenumbers. Add these numbers (12+48+96) together, and you will get the sum 156, which is the correct answer to the problem of multiplying 13 by 12.Now try another example: 38×251=?1 2512 5024 1,0048 2,00816 4,01632 8,032We see that 2+4+32=38. So 38×251=502+1,004+8,032. And that equals 9,538.The ancient Egyptians also used columns like these to divide large numbers. Can you think of how they might have done that?48. The ancient Egyptians used columns to _______ large numbers.A. add upB. multiplyC. divideD. both B and C49. What does the author tell us?A. Egyptians were good at counting.B. Egyptians had their own way to multiply large numbers quickly.C. Egyptians could calculate only by adding up numbers.D. Egyptians were quick in adding up the numbers。

The thief was so frightened that he hurriedly crawled out of the house and said to the one waiting outside, “She found me when I was just in.” But the thief outside didn’t believe him, so he said, “Let us try to crawl into the house together.” At that time two mice happened to crawl into the house, too. The woman saw the mice and shouted,“In come two, catch them!” The two thieves were terribly frightened. The man in the house said, “You saw them come in but where are they? I will catch them tonight.” The two th ieves started running away at once.The two thieves wanted to make it clear whether they had been found or not the night before. The next day they acted as men selling sweet potatoes and came before the house. The man and the woman were ploughing in their fields. The rope broke and the woman came home for a rope. She saw two men selling sweet potatoes and wanted to buy some. She picked out two which looked like mice. At the time the man couldn’t wait for her any longer in the fields and he ran back from the fields to hurry her up.

His strength and forehand and backhand skills are the best in the world, which are in fact unbeatable while he is at his best.Marat Safin was born in Moscow on 27th January, 1980, and was introduced to the game at a very early age. His mother Rausa, one of the former top 10 Russian women tennis players, used to take baby Marat with her when she practiced at the local Spartak club. This is where Marat also learned to play.Marat had picked up his racket(球拍) almost as soon as he could walk and at five was hitting balls with a little child until 1992.When Marat was 13, his parents decided to send him abroad for further practice, so in that year Marat and his mother visited a tennis school in Valencia where Maria Pasqual, former director of Spanish women’s tennis, was asked to judge his potential(潜力). Pasqual liked what she saw and managed to persuade a Swiss client(客户) into keeping him at the school.In the following four years Marat lived in Valencia employing Pasqual as his career advisor, working on his great clay court skills and learning the Spanish language.Marat’s first title came in 1997 at a Challenger in Espinho and soon afterwards he turned professional. He won his first title on the ATP Tour in August, 1999 when he beat Greg Rusedski in the final of the MFS Professional Championships in Boston. In 2000, Safin won his first Grand Slam(大满贯) title—US Open. He also reached the final of the Australian Open in 2002 and 2004. On November 7, 2004, Marat Safin beat Czech qualifier’Stepanek to win his third Paris Masters title. He also won the Paris Masters in 2000 and 2002.“I really enjoy tennis because it brings about extreme emotions and allows me to live my dreams,” said Safin. Yes, the future certainly looks rosy for him. Just like what his former adviser, Maria Pasqual said, “He will be a champion one day”—surely he already is!40. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. almost all the women love SafinB. his strength and forehand and backhand skills are never beatenC.

The Strait of Malacca off Indonesia’s coast is known to be one of the most pirate-infested(大批海盗出没的) areas in the world. In 2006 alone, there have been six pirate attacks in this area.The most recent attack was on Tuesday, July 4, 2006. The pirates traveled on a speedboat off Indonesia’s Su matra Island and followed a Japanese ship.A duty officer noticed the incoming attack when the pirates tried to board the back end of the ship. Floodlights were turned on and the crew used water to successfully prevent the pirates from boarding the ship.This attack was just two days after pirates boarded two U.N.-chartered(包租) ships carrying tsunami(海啸) reconstruction materials. In those attacks, there were no injuries, but crew members among one ship were robbed of their personal belongings and cash. On the second ship, the pirates damaged and stole various pieces of equipment.Although there have been six attacks this year, last year attacks were at an all-time low because of increased naval patrolling(巡逻) by Indonesia and its neighbors.“At the moment we don’t know if these are isolated cases or the start of attacks again in the Malacca Straits,”said Noel Choong, chief of the International Maritime Bureau’s(海事局) piracy reporting center in Kuala Lumpur.More than 50,000 ships pass through the strait each year carrying half of the world’s oil and a third of its commerce. The area is one of the busiest shipping lanes(航路) in the world and a key link between Asia and Europe.44. From the passage we know that the Strait of Malacca is _______.A. the busiest shipping lane in the world todayB. one of the best places to make the pirate moviesC. a busy shipping lane where pirate attacks sometimes take placeD. had six pirate attacks in 2005 which were an all-time low45. According to the passage, two U.N.-chartered ships _______ near the Strait of Malacca.A. successfully prevented the pirates from boarding the shipsB. were attacked by the pirates on July 6, 2006C. had all the tsunami reconstruction materials robbed of by the piratesD. had some of their crews injured in the fighting against the pirates46. The underlined “isolated cases” in Paragraph 6 most probably means _______.A. occasional ones, not happening in groupsB. the ones far away from the groupC. the ones divided into different groupsD. the ones separated from the group47. From the passage, we can infer that _______ is nearest to the Strait of Malacca.A. LondonB. New YorkC. Hong KongD. TokyoDOn July 2, 2006, a giant asteroid(小行星) named 2004 XP14 flew past the earth. The asteroid was discovered in 2004 and scientists believe it is nearly half a mile wide. The scientists determined its size by the asteroid’s brightness. This is not the first time, however, that an asteroid has come close to our planet.Many other asteroids in history have zipped(有力而迅速地行动) past the earth, but 2004 XP14 is by far the largest. In January of 2001, asteroid 2001 YB5 passed the earth by only 510,000 miles. In 2002, asteroid 2002 MN missed the earth by 210,000 miles—making it the closest call ever. The 2004 XP14, however, is 74-million miles from the earth, but it is still the largest asteroid to pass our planet.Although some asteroids did pass the earth at a very close proximity, many scientists believe the possibility of one hitting our planet is fairly slim(甚微). We have many of the asteroids mapped out in our solar (of the sun) system, and we actually have been able to determine their orbit(运行轨道) for years to come.Asteroid 2004 XP14 is expected to fly past the earth 10 more times within the next century. It is visible from Europe by the human eyes and can be seen in North America with a telescope.48. According to the passage, what do we know about 2004 XP14?A. It’s an asteroid that has flown past the earth by the closest distance.B. It can be seen by the human eyes in most parts of the world.C. It’s an asteroid that flew past on July 2, 2006 for the first time.D. It probably flies past the earth in every ten years.49. The underlined word “proximity” in Para 3 most probably means ______.A. nearness in timeB. nearness in distanceC. measure in safetyD. measure in response50. From the passage we can infer that an asteroid is most probably named after ______.A. the year when it was discoveredB. the man who discovered itC. the size measured by its brightnessD. the time it passed the earth51. Which is the most suitable title for the passage?A. Hitting the Earth Possible ?B. Determine its Orbit for the Years to ComeC. Asteroid Comes Close to the EarthD. How to Watch Asteroid 2004 XP14EWe find that bright children are seldom held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account(考虑) the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright children. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade.Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects(方面) of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze andevaluate(评估), and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to reach this goal.52. By “held back” (Para. 1) the author means “________”.A. made to remain in the same classesB. forced to study in the lower classesC. drawn to their studiesD. prevented from advancing53. The author argues that a teacher’s chief concern should be the development of the students’ ______.A. personal qualities and social skillsB. total personalityC. intellectual abilityD. learning ability and communicative skills54. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the third paragraph?A. Group work gives pupils the opportunity to learn to work together with others.B.

His mother Rausa, one of the former top 10 Russian women tennis players, used to take baby Marat with her when she practiced at the local Spartak club. This is where Marat also learned to play.Marat had picked up his racket（球拍） almost as soon as he could walk and at five was hitting balls with a little child until 1992.When Marat was 13, his parents decided to send him abroad for further practice, so in that year Marat and his mother visited a tennis school in Valencia where Maria Pasqual, former director of Spanish women 's tennis, was asked to judge his potential（潜力）. Pasqual liked what she saw and man aged to persuade a Swiss clie nt 客户）into keep ing him at the school.In the following four years Marat lived in Valencia employing Pasqual as his career advisor, working on his great clay court skills and learning the Spanish language.Marat 'fsirst title came in 1997 at a Challenger in Espinho and soon afterwards he turned professional.

The Strait of Malacca off Indonesia 's coast is known to be one of the most pirate-infested（大批海盗出没的） areas in the world. In 2006 alone, there have been six pirate attacks in this area.The most recent attack was on Tuesday, July 4, 2006. The pirates traveled on a speedboat off Indonesia ' ms aStura Island and followed a Japanese ship.A duty officer noticed the incoming attack when the pirates tried to board the back end of the ship. Floodlights were turned on and the crew used water to successfully prevent the pirates from boarding the ship.This attack was just two days after pirates boarded two U.N.-chartered（包租） ships carrying tsunami（海啸）reconstruction materials. In those attacks, there were no injuries, but crew members among one ship were robbed of their personal belongings and cash. On the second ship, the pirates damaged and stole various pieces of equipment.Although there have been six attacks this year, last year attacks were at an all-time low because of in creased n aval patrolli ng（巡逻）by Indon esia and its n eighbors.“At the moment we don 't know if these are isolated cases or the start of attacks again in the Malacca Straits, ” said Noel Choong, chief of the International Maritime Bureau ' s（海事局）piracy reporting center in Kuala Lumpur.More than 50,000 ships pass through the strait each year carrying half of the world ' s oil and a third of its commerce. The area is one of the busiest shipping lanes（航路） in the world and a key link between Asia and Europe.44. From the passage we know that the Strait of Malacca is ______ .A. the busiest shipping lane in the world todayB. one of the best places to make the pirate moviesC. a busy shipping lane where pirate attacks sometimes take placeD. had six pirate attacks in 2005 which were an all-time low45. According to the passage, two U.N.-chartered ships ______ near the Strait of Malacca.A. successfully prevented the pirates from boarding the shipsB. were attacked by the pirates on July 6, 2006C. had all the tsunami reconstruction materials robbed of by the piratesD. had some of their crews injured in the fighting against the pirates46. The underlined “isolated cases ” in Paragraph 6 most probably means _______________ .A. occasional ones, not happening in groupsB. the ones far away from the groupC. the ones divided into different groupsD. the ones separated from the group47. From the passage, we can infer that _____ is nearest to the Strait of Malacca.A. LondonB. New YorkC. Hong KongD. TokyoDOn July 2, 2006, a giant asteroid（小行星）named 2004 XP14 flew past the earth. The asteroid was discovered in 2004 and scientists believe it is nearly half a mile wide. The scientists determined its size by the asteroid 's brightness. This is not the first time, however, that an asteroid has come close to our planet.Many other asteroids in history have zipped（有力而迅速地行动）past the earth, but 2004 XP14 is by far the largest. In January of 2001, asteroid 2001 YB5 passed the earth by only 510,000 miles. In 2002, asteroid 2002 MN missed the earth by 210,000 miles—making it the closest call ever. The 2004 XP14, however, is 74-million miles from the earth, but it is still the largest asteroid to pass our planet.Although some asteroids did pass the earth at a very close proximity, many scientists believe the possibility of one hitting our planet is fairly slim（甚微）. We have many of the asteroids mapped out in our solar （of the sun）system, and we actually have been able to determine their orbit（运行轨道） for years to come.Asteroid 2004 XP14 is expected to fly past the earth 10 more times within the next century. It is visible from Europe by the human eyes and can be seen in North America with a telescope.48. According to the passage, what do we know about 2004 XP14?A. It ' s an asteroid that has flown past the earth by the closest distance.B. It can be seen by the human eyes in most parts of the world.C. It ' s an asteroid that flew past on July 2, 2006 for the first time.D. It probably flies past the earth in every ten years.49. The underlined word “proximity ” in Para 3 most probably means ________ .A. nearness in timeB. nearness in distanceC. measure in safetyD. measure in response50. From the passage we can infer that an asteroid is most probably named after _____ .A. the year when it was discoveredB. the man who discovered itC. the size measured by its brightnessD. the time it passed the earth51. Which is the most suitable title for the passage?A. Hitting the Earth Possible ?B. Determine its Orbit for the Years to ComeC. Asteroid Comes Close to the EarthD. How to Watch Asteroid 2004 XP14EWe find that bright children are seldom held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming（按能力分班）pupils. It does not take into account（考虑）the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright children. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade.Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects（方面） of learning. In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate （评估）,and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on in dividual tasks and assig nmen ts, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teach ing whe n this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advaneed pupil can do advaneed work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every en courageme nt to reach this goal.52. By “ held back ”（Para. 1） the author means “ _______ ”.A. made to rema in in the same classesB. forced to study in the lower classesC. draw n to their studiesD. preve nted from adva ncing53. The author argues that a teacher ' s chief concern should be the development of the studentsA. pers onal qualities and social skillsB. total pers on alityC. intellectual abilityD. learni ng ability and com muni cative skills54. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the third paragraph?A. Group work gives pupils the opportunity to learn to work together with others.B. Pupils also lear n to develop their reas oning abilities.C. Group work provides pupils with the opport un ity to lear n to be capable orga ni zers.D. Pupils also learn how to take part in teaching activities.55. The author ' s purpose in writi ng this passage is to _________ .A. argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classB. recomme nd pair work and group work for classroom activitiesC. offer advice on the proper use of the libraryD. emphasize the importa nee of proper formal classroom teach ing第四节：对话填空。

Magellan sailed from Seville in August, 1519with five ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending thecold winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered the channel which is nowcalled Magellan Strait(海峡). In November, 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks andstorms, the three remaining ships entered the ocean on the other side of SouthAmerica.Theythen continued, hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until theyreached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as the Philippines, men were dying of starvation. Whilethey were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then had to get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa.

I served them cocoa and bread with jam to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started again on my household budget.The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl heldthe empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, 〝Lady, are you rich?〞〝Am I rich? Mercy, no!〞I looked at my shabby slipcovers(家具套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟) carefully and said, 〝Your cups match your saucers.〞 Her voice was hungry with a needthat no amount of food could supply. They left after that, holding their bundles of papers against the wind. They hadn’t said 〝Thank you.〞 They didn’tneed to. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. Butthey matched.I tasted the potatoes and stirred the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a good steady job—these matched,too.I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room.The muddy prints of small sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be fora while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am. Andfrom then on I can’t help doing more.Ms Smith concluded her story with a very sweet smile that was worth millions of dollars, even an amount no one could figure out how large!Sure enough, sometimes a very small matter counts much when it isbig enough to change one’s life a little and great enough to make one feel moved and eager to do things one has even never thought of, which oftentimes brings benefits.47. Why did Ms Smith let the children in?A. She did it out of great pity on them.B. She had old papers to sell.C. She knew them and wanted to make them acup of cocoa.D. She wanted to invite them to herThanksgiving party.48. The girl thought Ms Smith was richperhaps in that _______.A. she saw that the lady’s room wascomfortableB. she saw the cups matched the saucersC. the writer’s slipcovers were very newD. the boy thought so49. From the passage, we can infer that whether you are rich depends on _______.A. how much money you have hadB.how you feel about your lifeC. how you have helped othersD. what job you are doing50. Ms Smith left the muddy prints of small sandals on the floor for a while to _______.A. show her husband that someone had comeB. remind her that she had helped twochildrenC. show that she was a kind-hearted womanD. remind herself how rich she was51. The last two paragraphs imply that_______.A. a famous person’s smile is worthmillions of dollars, or moreB. a meaningful small matter can bring abouta great change in one’s lifeC. little children can change one’s lifestyle by paying him a visitD. once a good deed is done, one couldbecome well-known in a short time.ESurgery(外科,手术) that canimprove the way a person looks is being more and more popular in the United Stated. This kind of surgery iscalled cosmetic surgery (整形手术), and both men andwomen are turning to this treatment as a way of keeping their appearance young as well as keepingcompetitive in their jobs. Men especially are beginning to turn to face-lifts,liposuction (taking fat out of thebody), and implants (putting man-made parts into their bodies) to help them look younger. As companies downsizeand move younger employees into higher positions, older employees in their lateforties and early fifties feel the need to look and act younger in order tostay competitive. A younger look through cosmetic surgery may give an olderemployee a few more years on the job.These operations are not without dangers, however. One young womanhad an eye operation to get rid of the bags under her eyes. She described here_perience as terrible. She said, 〝When he started cutting, I was fully awake.Even though he’d given me an injection(注射) near my eyes, I saw everything.〞 She went on to e_plain, 〝I knew I had to keep still because of what he was doing. He wasremoving fat under my eyes. It took about ten minutes. After he finished I feltI couldn’t walk. I wasso weak.〞 Her troublesdid not end after the operation. For two weeks, her eyes were swollen and almost completely closed, and even dark glasses could not hide the side effectsof the operation.Liposuction is probably the most popular cosmetic operation in the United States. It seems simple enough. First, a small cut is made over the places where the patient wants the fat removed. Ne_t, a small pipe is put intothe cut. A machine is then turned on, and the fat is taken right out of thebody. However, as one tor e_plained, some problems can happen after the operation. He warned, 〝Irregular lumps(块) and loose skin can result from this operation. If it is notcompletely done, liposuction can produce a very lumpy result.〞 Patients oftenmust have more liposuctions to correct the problem.52. What is the main idea of the firstparagraph?A. Some people want to have cosmeticsurgery in order to keep their jobs.B. There are two reasons why people havecosmetic surgery.C. How older employees try to stay on theirjobs for more years.D. A person can win the competition in thejob by means of looking young.53. How many kinds of cosmetic surgeriesdoes the writer mention?A. 5B. 4C. 3D. 254. The underlined word 〝downsize〞 (inPara. 1) means _______.A. develop branches and employ more labourersB. become smaller in the number ofemployeesC. move downwards to other placesD. put an end to business55. What do we know about liposuction from the passage?A. An unsuccessful liposuction may lead to more operations.B. Most liposuction operations aresuccessful and safe.C. A liposuction can be lifelong useful for people to stay young.D. A bad liposuction needs more tors tomake it up.第四节: 单词拼写.(根据括号内所给单词首字母,补全所缺单词)(共10小题;每小题１分,满分10分)As we all know, different countries have different customs, that isto say, different countries have different ways of greeting each other, (56) cfestivals and (57)ceach other.
