But scientists and technicians have been making them smaller and cheaper while at the same time they have been made easier to use. As a result, their popularity has been increasing as more people have been buying computers for their homes and businesses.Computers have been designed to store information and compute problems that are difficult for human beings to work out. Some have voices that speak with the operators. Stores use computers to keep records of their inventories (库存货物) and to send bills to their customers. Offices use computers to copy letters, record business and keep in touch with other offices. People have been using computers in their homes to keep track of the money they spend.One important new use for computers is for entertainment.

The best present to him, of course, is wine, Now his eldest son brought him a bottle of Mao Tai. He was glad and stared at it for some time, then wrote “105” on t he corner of the trademark with a pencil, meaning he had already drunk 105 bottles of the famous wine. Two days later a stranger came. He offered to pay 5 yuan for the empty Mao Tai bottle. Mr. Chen was pleased and sold it. Several weeks later, his second son brought him another bottle of Mao Tai. While examining and enjoying it, he was suddenly terrified—he found “105”—the very mark on it.71.

According to the story, who do you say learned a lesson?A. The strangerB. Mr. ChenC. His neighbourD. Mr. Chen’s eldest sonPassage FourDo you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it is painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labour through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can lea rn to make your life it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam (鼓起干劲) andwork better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get with a leisurely yawl and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble some search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. When ever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.76. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably _______.he is a lazy personhe refuses to follow his own energy cyclehe is not sure when his energy is lowhe is at his peak in the afternoon or evening77. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?A. Unawareness of energy cycles.B. Familiar monologues.C. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family member.78. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should _____.A. change his energy cycle C. get up earlier than usualB. overcome his laziness D. go to bed earlier79. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ______.help to keep your energy for the day’s workhelp you to control your temper early in the dayenable you to concentrate on your routine workkeep your energy cycle under control all day80. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.Children have energy cycles, too.参考答案Ⅰ.

WritingFake CommoditiesFake and poor quality commodities are a serious problem. Many things can be faked such as soybean sauce, vinegar, bicycles, and many other things. The interests of consumers are affected, and many enterprises keep losing money because of cheap fake commodities.There are some reasons for such a phenomenon. The major one is the desire of some people to “make easy money”. These people think nothing of the law of the protection of intellectual property rights.To get rid of fake and poor quality commodities, the government should educate people to obey the law of the protection of individual intellectual property rights and not to sell any fake goods. The government should punish severely and close down all the factories producing fake goods。

You already know quite a lot about what the rules of English grammar are, and how to form sentences in English. This knowledge is necessary for you to continue your study, but it is not enough for you to speak English well. In order to develop conversational listening and speaking skills, you need practice in these skills, and this is what this textbook aims to give you.Each unit in this book does not aim at grammar. Instead, the main goal of each unit is to provide conversational tasks or functions (功能) such as introducing yourself, talking about likes and dislikes, and inviting someone to go somewhere. In order to take part in English conversation, it is necessary to learn how these and other basic functions are used in English.At the end of each unit, you and your classmates will work together to solve (解决) a problem based on the functions you have just learned.This book gives you chances to listen to native speakers. It also gives you guided practice in developing conversational skills.36. What does this book aim to provide for the user?A. Knowledge about grammar rulesB. Ways to remember new English wordsC. Exercises for skills to form sentences in EnglishD. Practice in conversational listening and speaking skills37.

When my three children were young, most days it was hard keeping my house from becoming a battlefield.It got worse as they grew older. Three years ago, Zack, the n 16, couldn‘t make it through a day without making his sisters, Alex 11 and Taryn 9, angry.My husband and I tried to be understanding the boy at such an age. We reasoned, punished, and left heartfelt notes on his bed about how he was hurting our family. His answer was ―I say it because it‘s true.‖I even tried telling the girls to fight back. Bad idea. Now I had three children at war. When there was no way out, I told everything to my sister in an e-mail. She replied, ―Don‘t e-mail me. E-mail him.‖Our son was online (上网) every day, mailing and talking with his friends. Maybe he would actually hear me this way. I didn‘t say anything different, but e-mail just took the tension(紧张气氛) away. There‘s be no shouting or door banging. Zack wouldn‘t feel under atta ck.Zack didn‘t reply for days. When he finally did, his entire message was four small words. I smiled when I read them: ―You‘re right. I‘m sorry.‖The children still fought, of course, but Zack changed. Best of all, I now have a better way to talk with no t one but three of them. I like that they don‘t tune me out as much. They like not having to listen to me shouting to them. Or as Alex says, ―You‘re so much nicer online.‖All I know is that the house is quiet, but we‘re talking.39. What was the trouble before the online talk in the family?A. The writer failed to understand her daughters.B. The children couldn‘t get along peacefully.C. The family found it difficult to keep the house clean.D. The parents were not willing to talk with their children.40. Which of the following did the writer try to deal with her son?A. Talking with him about his pain.B. Telling him about the truth of the family.C. Telling her daughters to keep away from him.D. Encouraging her daughters to fight against him.41. The writer e-mailed her sister_______.A. to tell her the family problemB. hoping she‘d e-mailed the boyC. asking about child-raisingD. to reduce the tension42. Tune me out in the passage probably means ―_______‖A. quarrel with meB. get angry with meC. pay no attention to meD. keep me out of their roomCHundreds of thousands of young children are being given mobiles(移动电话) by their parents against official health advice. One in nine five-to-nine-year olds has a mobile. This will rise to one in five in a year or two, making this the fastest growing group of mobile users.A report on mobile safety says that while it is not sure whether they hurt users, children should not be allowed to use mobiles as much as grown-ups. This is because their brains are still developing and their bones are thinner, making it easier for mobile phone radio waves to pass through them. Mobile phone companies say they do not aim at under-16s, although some of their mobiles are designed to interest younger children.Many of the mobiles are paid for as a safety measure so that the child can always call a parent when necessary. However, when children see that their friends have a mobile, it can become popular among them.Professor Colin at Oxford University, who studies mobile phone radio waves, told BBC News ―It‘s new technology(技术) and the science is still developing. We have to be very careful about children—if there are any effects they would hurt young children more than grown-ups.‖ He suggested that children should be encouraged to use text messages rather than spoken conversations, this would reduce the amount of radio waves greatly.43. Which age group of mobile users is increasing fastest?A. From 1 to 5B. From 5 to 9C. From 9 to 16D. Above 1644. What do mobile phone companies say about their business?A. They make mobiles for those over 16.B. They don‘t serve those who are under 16.C. Their designers know the brains of children users.D. Younger children are more interested in their mobiles.45. According to Professor Colin, which of the following is TRUE?A. Reducing radio waves is a hard task for scientists.B. Children should not be allowed to use mobiles.C. Scientists usually care for young children more than grown-ups.D. Sending each other text message is safer than regular calling.46. What do you think is the purpose of this passage?A. To make known that children mobile users are increasing very fast.B. To warn people about the danger of children using mobiles.C. To discuss the effects of mobile phone radio waves.D. To teach people a safe way of using mobiles.DWhen memories of holiday pumpkin pies (南瓜馅饼) are not fresh any more, large-pumpkin growers are already planning next year‘s crop. Every year farmers around the world work very hard to see who can grow the world‘s largest pumpkin.The present world record be longs to Steve Daletas of Oregon. His pumpkin weighted 1,385 pounds (682 kilograms). That‘s heavier than large bears! In August the pumpkin grew 29 pounds (13 kilograms) per day! Our reporter spoke with Andrew Sabin, who was one of the organizers of the 2003 Large-Pumpkin Weighing Competition (比赛).To grow a large pumpkin, Sabin explained, you need the right seed and the right soil, and a lot of hard work. ―It‘s like a baby, ‖ he said, ―You look at your baby every day.‖All the hard work leads up to the weighing competitions, which usually take place in October. Top prize winners can earn thousands of dollars.Just getting the large pumpkins away from the farm can be very difficult. The pumpkins are so heavy that farmers often have to use forklifts (叉车) to move them.What do farmers do with the large pumpkins after the competition? According to Sabin, restaurants often buy the pumpkins for show. Top winners can also sell their pumpkin seeds to other farmers hoping to beat the world record the next year.Would the large pumpkins be made into pumpkin pies? Not likely, Sabin said. ―They don‘t taste so good as the small pumpkins that are grown to eat.‖Animals seem to like them though—at least one large pumpkin was fed to an elephant at the Oregon Zoo!47. Which of the following is TRUE of the passage?A. People continue to pay attention to holiday pumpkin pies.B. Farmers in the world are eager to grow pumpkins for food.C. Farmers try their best to grow pumpkins as large as possible.D. Pumpkin growers find it difficult to plan the next year‘s farming.48. What can we know about Steve Dalctas from the passage？A. His pumpkin is the heaviest in the world.B. His farm has grown 1,385 pounds of pumpkins.C. He tries to find bears heavier than his pumpkin.D. He is an organizer of the 2003 pumpkin competition.49. What does It refer to in ―It‘s like a baby‖?A. SeedB. PumpkinC. Soil50. What might happen to the largest pumpkins after the competition?A. Winners move them back to their farms.B. The Oregon Zoo uses them to attract visitors.C. Their seeds are sold to the farmers who need them.D. Some restaurants make huge pumpkin pies with them.五补全对话（共5句；每句满分3分，共15分）提示：一位女士在商店为儿子挑选T恤衫，大小和式样都合适，也有喜欢的颜色，但价格太高。

What you said was true. It was, _____, a little impolite.A、neverthelessB、otherwiseC、thusD、furthermorePart IV Reading ComprehensionPassage OneQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:Testing has replaced teaching in most public schools. My own children’s school week is focused on pretests, drills, tests, and retests. I believe that my daughter Erica, who gets excellent marks, has never read a chapter of any of her school textbooks all the way through. And teachers are often heard to state proudly and openly that they teach to the state test.Teaching to the test is a curious phenomenon. Instead of deciding what skills students ought to learn, helping students learn them, and then using some sensible methods of assessment (评估) to discover whether students have mastered the skills, teachers are encouraged to reverse the process. First one looks at a test. Then one draws the skills needed not to master, say, reading, but to do well on the test. Finally, the test skills are taught.The ability to read or write or calculate might imply the ability to do reasonably well on standard tests. However, neither reading nor writing develops simply through being taught to take tests. We must be careful to avoid mistaking preparation for a test of a skill with the acquisition of that skill. Too many discussions of basic skills make this fundamental confusion because people are test obsessed rather than concerned with the nature and quality of what is taught.Recently many schools have faced with what could be called the crisis of comprehension or, in simple terms, the phenomenon of students with grammar skills still being unable to understand what they read. These students are good at test taking, but they have little or no experience reading or thinking, and talking about what they read. They are taught to be so concerned with grade that they have no time or ease of mind to think about meaning, and reread things if necessary.61. What does the writer say about his daughter?A、She teaches in a middle school.B、She reads many good books.C、She does well on tests.D、She is proud of her way of learning.62. What are students encouraged to do nowadays at school?A、To master basic reading skills.B、To learn how to deal with tests.C、To read well in order to pass tests.D、To master all kinds of skills.63. Which of the following statements would the writer agree with the most?A、The nature and quality of subjects are more important than marks on them.B、Teachers should force students to learn to red and write and calculate well.C、Good preparation for standard tests is necessary for students.D、Most students are clear about how to acquire basic skills.64. What do students do when they are test obsessed?A、They pay attention only to tests.B、They hate tests very much.C、They try to avoid rereading things.D、They often join in discussion.65. What kind of students does the writer dislike most?A、Students with poor test marks and without creative thinking.B、Students active in thinking yet unable to talk about what they read.C、Students who are too well prepared for any test.D、Students unable to understand what they read.Passage TwoQuestions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:Eye contact is nonverbal (非语言的) technique that helps the speakers “sell”their ideas to an audience. Besides its persuasive powers, eye contact helps hold listeners’ interest. A successful speaker must maintain eye contact with an audience. To have good relation with listeners, a speaker should maintain direct eye contact for at least 75 percent of the time. Some speakers focus only on their notes. Others look over the heads of their listeners. Both are likely to lose audience’s interest and respect. People who maintain eye contact while speaking, whether from a podium or from across the table, are regarded not only as exceptionally friendly by their target but also as more believable and earnest.To show the power of eye contact in daily life, we have only to consider how passers-by behave when their glances happen to meet on the street. At one extreme are those people who feel obliged to smile when they make eye contact. At the otherextreme are those who feel uncomfortable and immediately look away. To make eye contact, it seems, is to make a certain link with someone.Eye contact with an audience also lets a speaker know and monitor (观察) his listeners. It is, in fact, essential to analyze an audience during a speech. Visual feedback (视觉反馈) from the audience can indicate that a speech is boring, that the speaker is talking too much about a particular point, or that a particular point requires further explanation. As we have pointed out, visual feedback from listeners should play an important role in shaping a speech as it is delivered.66. What does the writer believe about a speaker’s eye contact?A、It makes the speaker closer to his audience.B、It makes the audience lose the interest in his speechC、It makes the audience frightened of him.D、It makes listeners see the speaker more clearly.67. What does the word “target” (Para.1) refer to?A、SpeakersB、ListenersC、FriendsD、Objects68. Why does the writer give the example of passers-by in Paragraph 2?A、To show that people are not comfortable with eye contact from strangers.B、To show that strangers can get to know each other easily through eye contact.C、To prove the point that people look more friendly with direct eye contact.D、To prove the point that eye contact plays a role in social communication.69. What does the writer imply about visual feedback in the last paragraph?A、It can make the speaker adjust his speech.B、It can make the speech more informative.C、It may discourage and stop the speaker.D、It may cause the speaker make less eye contact.70. What is the main point of the passage?A、Eye contact is a good way to attract the audience.B、It is necessary to maintain direct eye contact with the audience.C、Eye contact is important to a successful speech.D、A speaker’s eye contact is more important than his notes.Passage ThreeQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:The whole industrial process, which makes many of the goods and machines we need and use in our daily lives, will unavoidably create a number of waste products which upset the environmental balance. Many of these waste products can be prevented or disposed of (处置) properly, but clearly while more and more new goods are produced and made complex, there will be new, dangerous wastes to be disposed of, for example, the waste products from nuclear power stations. Many people see pollution as only part of a large and more complex problem, that is, the whole process of industrial production and consumption of goods. Others see the problem mainly in connection with agriculture, where new methods are helping farmers grow more and more on their land to feed our ever-increasing population.Whatever reasons behind it, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, governments and people would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter (乱扔的废物) and waste. Food comes wrapped up three or four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which cannot be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metals and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying and careless disposal of the products we use in our daily lives.71. What will happen if the industrial process continues according to the passage?A、Environmental balance will be achieved easily.B、Less land will be used for agriculture.C、New environmental problems will have to be dealt with.D、World population will be reduced.72. Why does the writer mention food and drinks in Paragraph 2?A、To show the problem of litter and waste.B、To show the problem of overproduction.C、To show how they are consumed.D、To show how they are wrapped.73. What does the writer say about advertising?A、It causes pollution directly.B、It wastes energy.C、It puts litter under control.D、It brings about waste.74. What is the writer’s attitude towards the solution to environmental problems?A、DoubtfulB、ExcitedC、HopefulD、Disappointed75. Which of the following best describes the structure of the passage?A、Question and answer.B、Problem and solution.C、Situation and explanation.D、Statement and conclusion.Part V Translation from English into ChineseDirections: In this part there is a passage with 5 underlined sections, numbered 76 to 80. After reading the passage carefully, translate the underlined sections into Chinese. Remember to write your translation on the Translation Sheet.Twenty years ago, kids in school had never even heard of the Internet. Now, I’ll bet you can’t find a single person in your school who hasn’t at least heard of it. (76) In fact, many of us use it on a regular basis and even have access to it from our homes! The “net” in Internet really stands for network. A network is two or more computers connected together so that information can be shared, or sent from one computer to another. The Internet is a vast resource for all types of information. (77) You may enjoy using it to do research for a school project, downloading your favorite songs or communicating with friends and family. Information is accessed through web pages that companies, organizations and individuals create and post. It’s kind of like a giant bulletin board (布告牌)that the whole world uses! (78) But since anyone can put anything on the Internet, you also have to be careful and use your best judgment and a little common sense.Just because you read something on a piece of paper someone sticks on a bulletin board doesn’t mean it’s good information, or even correct, for that matter. So you have to be sure that whoever posted the information knows what they’re talking about, especially if you’re doing research! But what if you’re just emailing people? You still have to be very careful. (79) If you’ve never met the person that you’re communicating with online, you could be on dangerous ground! You should never give out any personal information to someone you don’t know, not even your name! And just like you can’t believe the information on every website out there, you can’t rely on what strangers you “meet” on the Internet tell you either.(80) Just like you could make up things about yourself to tell someone, someone else could do the same to you!76.77.78.79.80.Part VI Translation from Chinese into English81. 如果你们能够提供令人满意的售后服务，你们的产品一定会有一个广阔的市场。

TranslationPart I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.One study shows that Americans prefer to answer with a brief “Yes”, “No”, “Sure”, or the very popular “Yeah”rather than with a longer reply. (76) But brief replies do not mean Americans are impolite or unfriendly to some extent. Very often, Americans are in a hurry and may greet you with a single word “Hi”, indeed; this is a greeting you will hear again and again during your stay in the United States. It is used by everyone, regardless of rank, age or occupation. However, those who are accustomed to longer greetings may require a little more time before they feel comfortable with American simple talk. Americans sometimes use plain talk when they are uncomfortable. (77) If people praise them or thank them in an especially polite way, they may become uncomfortable and not know what to say in reply. They don’t want to be impolite or rude, you can be sure that they liked what was said about them. Except for certain holidays, such as Christmas, Americans don’t usually give gifts. Thus, you will find Americans embarrassed as they accept gifts, especially if they have nothing to give in return. They are generally a warm but informal people.1．The fact that Americans like shorter answers tells us ______.A．they reply very quickly in a hurryB．they choose words too carefullyC．they like replying brieflyD．they want to be as polite as they can正确答案：C解析：本题考查考生对细节的把握。

（本大题共15小题，每小题1分，共15分）Choose the most likely answers to complete the passage from the words given. (15 points)In the USA, 85% of the population 26 the age of twenty-one 27 of the death penalty. In many states which still have the death penalty, some use the electric chair, which can take 28 to 20 minutes to kill, 29 others use gas or lethal injection.Those who 30 for the death penalty use four main arguments to support their call 31 the reintroduction of the punishment. First there is the deterrence (威慑) theory, which argues that the 32 murderers would think twice before committing the act if they knew that they might die if they were 33 .The other two arguments are more suspect. The idea of retribution (报应) demands that 34 should get what they deserve: if a murderer intentionally set out to commit a crime, he should accept the consequences.The arguments against the death penalty 35 largely humanitarian. But there are also statistical reasons for opposing it: the deterrence figures do not add up. In Britain, 1903 was the record year for executions and yet in 1904 the number of murders 36 rose. It was the similar 37 with 1946 and 1947. If the deterrence theory were correct, the number should have 38 .The other reasons to argue 39 the death penalty are largely a 40 of individual conscience and belief.第 3 页26．A．over B．from C．on D．with27．A．agree B．favor C．support D．approve28．A．down B．up C．on D．over29．A．if B．when C．while D．as30．A．argue B．discuss C．believe D．agree31．A．on B．for C．in D．at32．A．hidden B．probable C．potential D．suitable33．A．drawn B．held C．grasped D．caught34．A．lawyers B．prisoners C．criminals D．lawmakers35．A．is B．was C．are D．were36．A．probably B．entirely C．actually D．specially37．A．event B．fact C．situation D．case38．A．fallen B．reduced C．cut D．turned39．A．over B．on C．against D．for40．A．case B．matter C．condition D．factIII. 难句释义。
