What that means is that as you're typing a message in Wave, either a new message or a reply, the person you’re writing to can see what you're typing as you type it. Sounds awful, right?You don’t have to use Wave in this real-time way. It also works as a standard e-mail. What’s really different about Wave is that ifyou’re replying to a message and the person you're replying to happen to be online, they can jump into the conversation at that point, and change what is an e-mail conversation into an instant message conversation or a chat.Wave right now is still closed to most users. And Wave isn't yet connected to other communication systems, like regular e-mail, which means that the only people we can Wave with are other people on Wave as well. So we don’t yet know what using Wave will be like once it gets crowded like e-mail. Also, the technology behind Wave is far more demanding on servers and the Internet itself than regular e-mail or chat, so we don’t know if the technology will work at scale.But Wave really is a current re-think of e-mail. A lot of people won’t like it. A lot of people didn’t like e-mail either when it first showed up. But people will find real uses for Wave or whatever it becomes, and it's one of the most interesting new takes on communication. Even if you don't like it, it will make you think differently about e-mail.36. What is special about Wave?A. It makes people see each other online.B. It enables people to send real-time e-mails.C. It allows you to send more e-mails at the same time.D. It can be easily connected to other communication systems.37. It is uncertain that Wave will work on a large scale because______.A. people cannot find practical uses for itB. it will be a challenge to regular e-mailC. the technology it needs is more complicatedD. many people do not understand how it works38. We know from the last paragraph that ______.A. Wave is a basis for face-to-face communication on lineB. Wave allows people to look at e-mail from a new angleC. most Internet users will have access to WaveD. Wave is now as popular as standard e-mail39. What is the author's attitude toward Wave?A. Optimistic.B. Indifferent.C. Pessimistic.D. Critical.Passage TwoWell, it could not have got better for young Kavya Shivashankar, a13-year-old student from Olathe, Kansas as she came out very successfully at the Scripps National Spelling Bee 2009 (2009全美拼写大赛). On Thursday night she defeated the other 11 finalists to win the 82nd Scripps National Spelling Bee, taking home more than $40,000 cash money along with other prizes.Kavya Shivashankar, whose parents migrated to the United States from India, and who aims to become a doctor, enjoys playing the violin, bicycling, swimming and learning Indian classical dance.Thing came a bit late in Kavya’s life since she could win the championship with her fourth appearance in the competition. The last three times when she had taken part in the same competition she had finished Tenth, Eighth and Fourth.However, this time Kavya proved her courage and determination by winning the title she had been competing for so long. Her last challenge was to spell out " Laodicean". The word" Laodieean" means one who is indifferent, mostly in religious matters. She spelled it correctly and a big smile appeared on her face. Kavya wrote the words on her palm each time and spelled every word correctly.After winning Kavya exelaimed," I can’t believe it happened It feels kind of unreal. " Her family was there to support her through the competition. Her father, Mirle Shivashankar said, "The competitiveness is in her.., but she doesn’t show that. She still has that smile. That’s her quality. " He went on to say that this was" the moment" they had been waiting for so long. It was like" a dream come true" for them.40. Who is Kavya Shivashankar?A. One of the 11 finalists at the spelling competition.B. A 13-year-old girl planning to become a star dancer.C. Champion of the Scripps National Spelling Bee 2009.D. An Indian girl enjoying playing various musical instruments.41. The second time Kavya took part in the same competition, she took the ______ place.A. thirdB. fourthC. eighthD. tenth42.

The father’s words show that ______.A. the family needed the prize money to support Kavya's educationB. the family were too worried to be present at the competitionC. Kavya was very good at expressing her feelingsD. Kavya had a strong sense of competitionPassage ThreeNothing says "Happy Birthday!" like having a coin released in your honor by the United States Mint(铸币局), and 2009 has become an especially festive year as the Mint rolled out nine different coinsin honor of Abraham Lincoln’s 200th birthday.Four pennies with new designs on the reverse side were issuedstarting February 12. The image of a cabin represents his birthplace. Because Lincoln’s family was poor, and no one could have predicted his later importance, the actual cabin is long gone. Therefore the design is based on the "symbolic cabin" displayed at the Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Site in Kentucky.The other designs show Abraham taking a break to read a book, the young lawyer Lincoln in front of the Illinois state capitol and a Lincoln-free image of the half finished U. S. Capitol dome as it looked during his time in office. These four coins-produced with today’s standard mix of 97.5 percent zinc and 2.5 percent copper-are intended for general circulation.The Mint also released five collectible coins that sell for more than their face value. Special editions of the four penny designs were produced with the metal content used in 1909 ; a mix of 95 percent copper and 5 percent tin and zinc. In addition, in the world of "bigger" money,2009 has brought the Lincoln Commemorative One-Dollar Coin-made up of 90 percent silver and 10 percent copper-with an image that has a Gettysburg Address theme.44. What does Paragraph 2 tell about the cabin on the coins?A. It is a symbolic cabin rebuilt in Kentucky.B. It is newly built for producing new coins.C. It has been protected well for over 200 years.D. It is exactly the one where Lincoln was born.45. Special editions of the 4 collectible coins ______.A. are made of copper and silverB. sell at a price same as their face valueC. are likely to be used for circulation in the futureD. have different metal content from the one-dollar coin46. The one-dollar coin has a design of ______ on it.A. a cabinB. Abraham readingC. the Illinois state capitolD. the Gettysburg Address theme47. What is probably the best title for the passage?A. Abraham Lincoln’s 200th BirthdayB. Coins Issued with Metal Content in 1909C. Coins in Honor of Abraham LincolnD. Collectible Coins for Abraham LincolnPassage FourLaura and Anthony Valois are a young New York couple who have been trying in vain to have their first child. Several years ago, Belinda Ramirez read an Internet adoption listing and quickly contacted them from her home in Texas ,telling them they could adopt her unborn baby. Excited, Laura and Anthony spent weeks communicating with Ramirez and got regular updates on her pregnancy.Before long, Ramirez began to ask them for financial support. That took the Valoises by surprise. But they were willing to do a lot to ensure a smooth birth. They sent more than $1,000 to Ramirez over several months.Laura and Anthony finally drove to Texas so they could be on hand for the birth. But once they arrived,Ramirez avoided their daily phone calls. After three weeks, the couple drove back to New Yorkemptyhanded and emotionally crushed.They later learned Ramirez had been cheating about ten other peoplefor such things as Wal-mart gift cards in states ranging from California to Ohio to Florida. From start to finish, it was a scam.In fact, Ramirez was never even pregnant. She was sentenced to 24 months in prison as she deserved." When you find out you can’t have children, it’s just depressing, " Laura Valois told a Texas TV station. " But when somebody intentionally does this to you, it's 15 times worse. "48.

They warn that angry hostile feelings can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possible cancer.Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others explode with anger, and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing(压制) anger. For years many doctors thought that compared with expressing anger, repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health. It may speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure or sugar into the blood and narrow the blood vessels. To avoid these problems, doctors thought a person should let the anger out by expressing it freely. But recently some doctors disputed this. They said that people who express anger repeatedly and explosively did cause, in fact, more and not less anger. They said these too can cause medical problems.Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. Expressing anger intensively may be more likely to develop heart disease, and keeping anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it isn’t, they say," Don’t express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably. "Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.52. The passage mainly focuses on ______.A. the causes of angerB. the medical treatment of angerC. the health problems caused by angerD. reasonable ways of dealing with anger53. It can be concluded from the passage that ______.A. keeping anger inside is better than expressing it intensivelyB. both repressing and expressing anger cause health problemsC. keeping anger inside is more likely to cause heart diseaseD. expressing anger freely can avoid medical problems54. The author of the passage is most probably a(n) ______.A. patientB. editorC. psychologistD. surgeon55. According to the passage, a good way to control anger is ______.A. to do sportsB. to be high-spiritedC. to turn it into laughterD. to discuss it with doctorsⅤ. Daily ConversationDirections: Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogues.A. It doesn't matterB. How comeC. You’re welcomeD.

They move from town to city to suburb, from high school to college in a different state, from a job in one region to a better job elsewhere, from the home where they raise their children to the home where they plan to live in retirement. With each move theyare forever making new friends, who become part of their life at that time. For many of them summer is a special time for forming new friendships. Today millions of Americans vacation abroad, and they go not only to see new sights but also with the hope of meeting new people. No one really expects a vacation trip to produce a close friend, but surely the beginning of a friendship is possible. (81) The word “friend” can be applied to a wide range of friendship—to someone one has known for a few weeks in a new place, to a fellow worker, to a childhood playmate, to a man or woman, to a trusted confidant(知己).41．Many Americans move from place to place for the following reasons except______.A．going to collegeB．getting a better jobC．finding a place to live in retirementD．saving money正确答案：D42．Summer is a special time when many Americans______.A．enjoy the sunlightB．feel strangeC．travel to other countriesD．get a new job正确答案：C43．When summer comes, many American______.A．hope to meet new peopleB．expect to find some close friendsC．want to begin lasting friendships with new peopleD．Both A and B正确答案：A44．From the passage it can be seen that a “friend” can be______.A．a fellow workerB．a football teammateC．a boy or a girlD．all of the above正确答案：D45．Which of the following is the topic sentence of the second paragraph?A．For many of them summer is a special time for forming new friendships.B．Today millions of Americans vacation abroad.C．No one really expects a vacation trip to produce a close friend.D．But surely the beginning of a friendship is possible.正确答案：ATechnology is the application of knowledge to production. Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expenses while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available to us by means of modern farming machinery and animal-breeding techniques, and has extended our life span via medical technology. Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it wisely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. (82) The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and the latest statistics show that the United States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources, we may well find technological substitutes for many of them through our research programs. Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production (land, labor, capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills or techniques in machinery, people will start developing new technology to meet these needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living.46．What is the best title for the passage?A．The Definition of TechnologyB．Modern TechnologyC．The Application of TechnologyD．The Development of Technology正确答案：B47．Modern technology provides us with a lot of benefits except______.A．more production and a higher standard of livingB．extended life spanC．a better pumping systemD．more food available正确答案：C48．From the passage, we can infer that this article is probably______.A．a part of the introduction to American businessB．followed by the passage talking about factors of productionC．taken from a learned journalD．both A and B正确答案：D49．Which is the main idea of the passage?A．Modern technology is the key to the improvement of standard of living.B．The three major factors of production—land, labor and capital are all influenced by technology.C．Technology is the response to our needs.D．The United States is making great efforts to advance its technology.正确答案：A50．According to the passage, people can live a long life with the help of______.A．higher quality of lifeB．medical technologyC．modern farming machineryD．technological substitute正确答案：BThe earth is much cooler than the sun, and the wave length of the earth’s radiations is much longer than that of sunrays. These longer heat waves cannot pass through the atmosphere as easily as the short waves coming from the sun. Similarly, radio stations that transmit programs to distant countries broadcast in short waves, which can travel all around the world. Stations that broadcast local programs send out longer waves, which can be received more easily, but only in a limited area. (83) Heat waves, rising from the earth, meet resistance in the atmosphere from the water vapor there. Many if the waves are stopped by the water vapor can not get back out into space. The atmosphere, when it is warmed up, also adds some heat back to the earth’s surface. When the sun’s rays strike water surface, some of the water becomes absorbed by the air as water vapor. The warmer the air is, the more vapor it can hold. When the air has absorbed its maximum amount of vapor, it is said to be saturated. If the air is then cooled, some of the vapor will condense and clouds will form. (84)These clouds, will contain drops of water at temperatures above freezing, or ice crystals at temperatures below freezing. Clouds can greatly affect the temperature of the earth’s surface. When there are many clouds in the sky, all of thesun’s rays can not reach the earth. The cloudy day, then, will be cooler than the cloudless day. Clouds also prevent the earth from cooling off rapidly at night. For this reason, countries such as the British Isles, which are often covered by clouds, have a relatively constant temperature. The weather in these cloudy areas is neither very hot in summer nor very cold in winter. On the other hand, places such as deserts, which have few or no clouds, have very sharp variations in temperature—between night and day as well as between summer and winter.51．Radio stations that transmit programs to distant countries send out waves that resemble______.A．heat waves rising from the earthB．waves absorbed by water vaporC．waves sent out by radio stations that transmit local programsD．the rays sent out from the sun正确答案：D52．Air can hold more water vapor______.A．when it is warmB．when it is coolC．in summerD．in winter正确答案：A53．The sun’s rays are absorbed by______.A．cloudsB．the heat waves in the atmosphereC．the surface of the earthD．water vapor正确答案：C54．When there are clouds, days tend to be______.A．warmer than when it is clearB．cooler than when it is clearC．the same as when it is clearD．the same as nights正确答案：B55．If a country has a relatively constant temperature, it would probably be______.A．in a mountainous regionB．frequently cloudyC．having as many sunny days as cloudy daysD．one in which there is no winter正确答案：BEducation is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them; our purpose is to fit them for life. As soon as we realize this fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a system of education which will really prepare children for life. It is not enough just to choose the first system of education one finds, or to continue with one’s old system of education without examining it to see whether it is in fact suitable or not. (85) In many modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that, by free education for all—whether rich or poor, clever or stupid—one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find it in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees than there are jobs for them to fill. Because of their degrees, they refuse to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, work with the hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than the work of a professor—we can live without education, but we will die if we have no food. In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever job is suited to his brain and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that it is very bad to be ashamed of one’s work, or to scorn someone else’s. Only such a type of education can be called valuable to society.56．The first sentence of this passage means that______.A．education is not the purpose of lifeB．education is a way of lifeC．education is to make people suitable for lifeD．education is not fit for children正确答案：A57．Free education for all is not enough, because______.A．it can not solve all the problems of societyB．there are not enough jobs for those who have degreesC．degrees are uselessD．people with degrees are ashamed of their jobs正确答案：B58．The writer of this passage thinks that_____ .A．work with hands is dirtyB．food is more important than educationC．education is not necessary for some peopleD．it is better to be a completely uneducated farmer正确答案：B59．We must be educated in such a way that______.A．we can choose whatever job we likeB．we can do all kinds of jobsC．each of us can do a good jobD．each of us can do some work that is useful to society正确答案：D60．How can education be valuable to society?A．Education should be free for all.B．Education should bring up people able and willing to do jobs necessary to society.C．Education should make people accept low jobs.D．Education should examine people’s ability.正确答案：BCloze(非英语专业学生做) Women in the United States and many other countries 【61】in a growing number of sports and games.

But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against the rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun.Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B.C.We know that the umbrella was also used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. (81)And there was a strange thing connected with its use; it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use umbrellas as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the 16th century. And again it became a symbol of power and authority.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twenties century that women's umbrellas began to be made ina variety of colors.41.The first use of the umbrella was as .A. Protection against the rainB. A shade against the sun.C. A symbol of powerD. A symbol of honor42.The are regarded as the people who first used umbrellas.A. RomansB. GreeksC. ChineseD. Europeans43.The umbrella was used only by royal people or those in high office .A. in Europe in the eighteenth century.B. in ancient Egypt and BabylonC. in the Far East in ancient timesD. during the Middle Ages44.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Women's umbrellas are made in various kinds of colors.B. The inventor of the umbrella is unknown.C. Once ordinary people had no right to use umbrellas.D. Umbrellas were popular and cheap in ancient times.45.Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?A. When Was the Umbrella InventedB. The Roles of Umbrellas in HistoryC. The Colors and Shapes of UmbrellasD. Who Needed the Umbrella FirstPassage TwoDoctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. According to some research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels, including those in the brain, stronger and more fully developed.The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. Margaret Barnes, a pediatrician, believes in the importance of exercise. (82)She thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in elementary school or high school can be traced back to a lack of movement as babies.In studies with seniors, research has shown that exercise helps older people as well. The exercise doesn't have to be very difficult. The main goal is just to increase the heart rate. And especially when learning new movements, such as yoga or tai chi, it appears that new memory paths open up in the brain. This can improve people's short-term memory.46.What is the main idea of this passage?A. How to take exerciseB. How exercise helps the brainC. How to enjoy musicD. How the brain can change47.According to the passage, how does exercise affect the brain?A. It helps people think more clearlyB. It improves long-term memoryC. It makes babies more intelligentD. It strengthens blood vessels48.According to Margaret Barnes, many learning problems that children have in school may be caused by .A. low intelligenceB. a lack of exercise when very youngC. social problemsD. difficult relationships with teachers49.Why are voga and tai chi recommended to seniors?A. They are new movementsB. They are good for memoryC. They can slow down their heart rate.D. They are good for joints50.What type of patients does a pediatrician probably treat?A. Patients with mental problemsB. Patients with physical problemsC. ChildrenD. Old peoplePassage ThreeHow can we get rid of garbage? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs? These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time. (83)They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the same time it can save the land to hold garbage.For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. However, garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels. As we use up our fossil fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.Buring garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been buring garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Pairs, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the city's garbage each year. The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by buring almost a half million barrels of oil.But there are problems in using garbage as a fuel. Garbage that burns easily , such as food scraps (碎屑) and paper, must be separated from metals, glass, and other materials that do not burn easily. This separation process is normally costly. Another problem is that burning garbage can pollute the air.Our fossil fuel supplies are limited. Buring garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs. This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up on the earth.51.What two problems can man solve by burning problem?A. The shortage of energy and air pollutionB. The shortage of energy and the land to hold garbage.C. Air pollution and the shortage of fossil fuels.D. Air pollution and the shortage of the land to hold garbage.52.Which of the following is NOT the result of burning garbage?A. The garbage burned is turned into fossil fuels.B. The heat produced is used to boil water.C. The steam produced is used to make electricity.D. The steam produced is used to heat buildings.53.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. About 2 million metric tons of garbage is burned in France each year.B. In the modern society, more and more garbage is produced each year.C. Using garbage is a good way to solve the problem of energy shortage.D. Burning garbage is an old idea.54.According to the passage, which of the following four groups of garbage is ready for burning?A. Food scraps and metalsB. Paper and glassC. Metals and glassD. Food scraps and paper55.What is the general tone of the passage?A. OptimisticB. IndifferentC. PromotingD. AnxiousPassage FourH5N1 avian influence, known commonly as bird flu, has killed at least 15 people across Asia and was confirmed in China on January 27. No human cases have been found in the mainland, but 13 of the country's 31 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities (直辖市) have reported the disease in poultry.The Chinese government has taken measures to prevent and control the disease. Poultry within 3 km of infected farms is to be killed and those within 5 km to receive vaccines (疫苗).(84)Meanwhile , there will be constant monitoring and daily reports on the disease across the country, and increased production of bird flu vaccines.Among the Asian countries and regions affected by bird flue in animals, only Vietnam and Thailand have reported human cases. The people infected were reported to have caught the disease from poultry, while the World Health Organization (WHO) said there is "no proof of human-to-human transmission(传播)" of bird flue.(85)The big fear is that the disease could combine with a human influenza virus to create a deadly new disease that will kill millions of people across the globe. Many Asian farmers live closely with their animals and sell live chickens in the market. This greatly increases the possibility of human beings infected with bird flu.A spokesman of the WHO said that Asian countries affected by bird flu should introduce amore healthy way of raising and selling chickens. And the people there have to complexly change their lifestyle and attitude towards animals. Here are some safety measures for people to stay healthy;●Keep fit and well through regular exercise;●Avoid infected poultry and infected people;●Avoid eating raw or under-done poultry and eggs;●Make sure there is always fresh air in your home;●Cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing;●Wash your hands frequently;56.What does the word "poultry "in the passage mean?A. Wild birdsB. Wild animalsC. Home-raised birdsD. Home-raised animals57.From the passage, we can learn that .A. infected poultry within 3 km was killed in China.B. Bird flu case was confirmed in China on Jan,27.C. Human cases were found 13Asian countriesD. Over two thirds of China has been infected with bird flu58.What do people fear most?A. Poultry will infect many peopleB. The disease can spread quickly among peopleC. There will be human-to-human transmissionD. A new disease combining bird flu and human flu will break out59.One of the right ways for us to avoid bird flu is .A. To kill all the poultryB. To eat no more chickensC. To form a healthy habitD. To keep separated from others60.Which must be wrong for the Asians to change their lifestyle?A. Farmers should avoid selling live poultry in the marketB. Farmers should vaccinate their poultry regularlyC. Farmers should live more closely with their poultry.D. People should avoid buying live poultry in the market.三、完形填空20分：每空1分Mrs. Jones was over eighty, but she still drove her old car like a woman half her age.

Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions:There are four reading passages in this part Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneResearchers have found that REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is important to human beings. This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence. The deeper a person’s sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.There are physical charges in the body to show that a person has changed from NREM (non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep. Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep. It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.61. According to the passage, how often does REM sleep occur in one night?A. OnceB. TwiceC. Four of five timesD. Forty times62. The word “deeper” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to which of the following?A. heavier.B. louder.C. stronger.D. happier.63. Which of the following shows that a person is NOT dreaming in his sleep?A. His eyes begin to move.B. His breathing becomes faster.C. His heart rate increases.D. His eyes stop moving.64. The subject of this passage is ________.A. why people sleepB. the human need for REM sleepC. the characteristic of REM sleepD. physical changes in the human body65. Which of the following is the best title of the article?A. REM SleepB. Two Types of SleepC. SleepersD. What Happens to SleepersPassage TwoThe Mother Goose Stories, so well known to children all over the word, are commonly said to have been written by a little old woman for her grandchildren. According to some people, she lived in Boston, and her real name was Elizabeth Vergoose. Her son-in-law, a printer named Thomas Fleet, was supposed to have published the famous stories and poems for small children in 1719. However, no copy of this book has ever been found, and most scholars doubt the truth of this story—and doubt, moreover, that Mother Goose was ever a real person. They point out that the name is a direct translation of the French “Mere I’ Oye.” In 1697 the Frenchman Charles Perrault published the first book in which this name was used. The collection contains eight tales, including “Sleeping Beauty,” “Cinderella,” and “Puss in Boots.” But Perrault did not originate these stories; they were already quite popular in his day, and he only collected them.66. What is suppssed to have happened in 1719?Elizabeth Vergoose wrote the first Mother Goose Stories.Thomas Fleet published the Mother Goose Stories.The Mother Goose Stories were translated into French.Charles Perrault published the first Mother Goose Stories.67. Most scholars consider Mother Goose to be _________.A. a real personB. a book written by a little old womanC. a collection by Elizabeth VergooseD. a translation from French68. When Perrault published the first book in 1679, _______.no story of the book had been known to peoplesome stories of the book were already well knownfew people were interested in the stories of the bookstories like “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella” became popular69. The name used in the first book published in 1679 is supposed to have been _______.A. Mother GooseB. Mere I’ OyeC. Elizabeth VergooseD. Charles Perrault70. On the basis of this passage, what may be concluded about the real origin of stories “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella”?They were invented by Elizabeth Vergoose.They were invented by Thomas Fleet.They were invented by Charles Perrault.Their writers are unknown.Passage ThreeBanks are not ordinarily prepared to pay out all accounts; they rely on depositors (储户) not to demand payment all at the same time. If depositors should come to fear that a bank is not safe, that it cannot pay off all its depositors, then that fear might cause all the depositors to appear on the same day. If they did, the bank could not pay all accounts. However, if they did not all appear at once, then there would always be enough money to pay those who wanted their money when they wanted it. Mrs. Elsie Vaught has told us of a terrifying bank run that she experienced. One day in December of 1925 several banks failed to open in a city where Mrs. Vaught lived. The other banks expected a run the next day, and so the officers of the bank in which Mrs Vaught worked as a teller had enough money on hand to pay off their depositors. The officers simply told the tellers to pay on demand. The next morning a crowd gathered in the bank and on the sidewalk outside. The length of the line made many think that the bank could not possibly pay off everyone. People began to push and then to fight for places near the telle rs’ windows, The power of the panic atmosphere was such that two tellers, though they knew that the bank was quite all right and could pay all depositors, drew their own money from the bank. Mrs Vaught says that she had difficulty keeping herself from doing the same.71. A bank run happens when _______.a bank is closed for one or more daystoo many depositors try to draw out their money at one timethere is not enough money to pay all its depositors at one timetellers of a bank take their own money from the bank72. The tellers in Mrs. Vaught’s bank were told to ________.explain why they could not pay out all accountspay out accounts as requestedmake the depositors believe that the bank was standpay out money as slowly as possible73. The main cause of a bank run is _______.A. loss of confidenceB. lack of moneyC. crowds of peopleD. inexperienced tellers74. Which of the following did Mrs. Vaught say?She know that the bank was not sound.She feared that too many depositors drawing their money would close the bank.She was not able to draw out her money.She was tempted to draw out her money.75. According to the passage, the actions of the depositors of Mrs. Vaught’s bank were affected mainly by the _______.ease with which they could get their moneyconfidence that Mrs. Vaught showedfailure of several other banks to openconfidence shown by other depositors of the bankPassage FourOne of the greatest problems for those settlers in Nebraska in the last quarter of the previous century was fuel. Little of the state was forested when the first settlers arrived and it is probable that by 1880, only about one-third of the originally forested area remained, down to a mere 1 percent of the state’s 77,000 square miles. With wood and coal out of the question, and with fuel needed year-round for cooking, and during the harsh winter months for heating, some solution had to be found.Somewhat improbably, the buffalo provided the answer. Buffalo chips (干粪块) were found to burn evenly, hotly, and cleanly, with little smoke and interestingly, no odor, Soon, collecting them became a way of life for the settlers’ children who would pick them up on their way to and from school, or take part in competitions designed to counteract their natural reluctance. Even a young man, seeking to impress the girl he wanted to marry, would arrive with a large bag of chips rather than with a box of candy or a bunch of flowers.76. What is the main topic of this passage?The solution to the Nebraska settlers’ fuel problem.Life in Nebraska in the late ninteenth century.The imporance of the American buffalo.Deforestation in Nebraska in the late nineteenth century.77. Which of the following statements is NOT true?Nebraska was not a densely-forested state even before the settlers arrived.The children enjoyed collecting the buffalo chips.The children spent a lot of time collecting the chips.Buffalo chips were satisfactory as a fuel.78. The passage implies that buffalo chips were needed _______.A. in greater amounts in summerB. in greater amounts in winterC. only in summerD. only in winter79. Which of the following does the author not express surprise at?The children needed competitions to them.The buffalo chips gave off no smell.Buffalo chips were the answer to the settlers’ fuel problem.Young men took bags of buffalo chips to their girl friends.80. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Early SettlersB. One Use of the Buffalo ChipsC. Nebraska’s ProblemsD. How Young Men Express Their Love for GirlsⅤ.

Each passage isfollowed by some questions or unfinished statements. For eachof them there arefour choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line throughthe centre.Passage OneThere is so muchmore meaning to a message than what exists in the spoken or written words. Forexample, if a person says, “you know, Barbara, I really like you,” it hasdifferent meanings depending on whether it is said by a man or a woman, in anoffice or a bar context, the tone of voice, the stress put on certain words, aswell as the eye contact, physical distance, and the relationship between thesparker and the listener are all factors which give meaning to what’s beingsaid. Sometimes, these factors can generate much more meaning than the wordsthemselves. If a friend say to me, “Gee, I can’t wait to see the result of theupcoming election.” my interpretation of that message will be based upon myknowledge of my friend’s political views, the situation with the currentcampaign, and my ability to understand the meaning behind the tone of voice.Our ability tounderstand such cue is developed without us being aware of it through ourprocess of socialization. Our interpretation of these cues just comesnaturally. Every culture has its own set of culture cues that each member ofthat culture understands. It’s common how a person from culture A and a personfrom culture B interpret the very same words in totally different ways. Hereare some examples:When “Sarcasm”Means“Sincerity”Marsha thought things were going well with her new French friends,particularly Bertrand. He often invited her to interesting and fun events, buthe was often making fun of her. One day at an art exhibition, while looking ata particularly abstract piece,Marsha said that she couldn’t understand whatthe artist was trying to express. Bertrand smiled and responded,” Yes, I’mafraid French art is far too advanced for Americans to understand.” Marsha wasupset; she really liked him and coul dn’t figure out what caused him tofrequently make fun of her. So, she asked her host mother about it. “My dear,”the host mother told her, “ This means that he really likes you. In France,when someone feels comfortable enough to make fun of you, that means that you havebeen welcomed as a very close friend.”When “Now” Doesn’tMean “Now”’Joshua, an American student in Heredia, Costa Rican invited his partnerto meet for coffee. When he asked what time they should meet, the response was“Nos encontramos ahora en elparquet”. “Ahora” literally means now. So, hegrabbed his jacket and headed straight to the park where they agreed to meet.Half an hour later, his friend arrived without the least sign of regret forbeing late. After discussing the matter with his Spanish teacher, Joshualearned that in Costa Rica, “Ahora” meanssometime within the hour. And, if people decide to meet some place like park,it is no problem for one or the other to wait for a while because they willspend some nice time in the park, probably running into some other friends, ormeeting someone friendly.When “Yes”Doesn’t Mean“Yes”Many business people might have experiencedthis frustrating situation in Japan. Sarah, a young businesswoman from NewYork, was sent to Japan to close a big deal for her company. While giving herpresentation, she became more and more certain of sale because her Japanesebusiness partnerscontinually nodded their heads as she spoke. When shefinished she thought the deal was made and asked when they would like to signthe agreement. She was shocked when she was told that they were not yet sure ifthey wanted to make the deal or not. What Sarah did not know is that in Japan,nodding head does not necessarily mean “yes” as it does in the US. It can alsomean “yes, I am listening and understanding what you are saying.”Passage TwoThe automobile hasgiven people incredible freedom of movement. It enables them to decide wherethey want to go andwhen. The automobile influences where people live and workand how they spend their leisure time. The striking changes in people’s livescreated by the automobile began in the United States and have since spreadacross much of the globe, especially in developed countries. But even indeveloping nations, the automobile is increasingly reshaping patterns ofliving.When the firstautomobiles were produced, only the well-to-docould afford them. Soon, however, prices declined as production increased inresponse to the growing demand. The lower prices put the automobile withinreach of more and more Americans. Well-off urban residents found car ownershipcheaper than keeping a horse and carriage. The growth in car ownership led tothe building of more and better roads, which further increased travelthroughout the nation. Before the development of automobiles, urban workerswalked, bicycled, or rode horse-drawn vehicles to their jobs. But as roadsimproved and car ownership expanded, workers no longer had to live near theirjobs.During the 1920s, peoplein U.S. cities increasingly moved to the suburbs because of the freedomprovided to the workers by automobile ownership. By the mid-1950s, even factories hadbegun to relocate in the suburbs. Wherever people have easy access toautomobiles, cars play a major role in social life and the choice ofrecreational activities. People find it fun to hop in the car and visit friendsand relatives, whether the drive takes a few minutes, hours, or days. Trips byautomobile help make it easy to organize picnics, family reunions, and otherget-togethers. Trips by automobile to such places as theme parks, nationalparks, and mountain and seashore resorts are a favorite type of vacation formany people.Passage ThreeTo become asuccess in high-tech Silicon Valley, Alan Aerts used low-tech skills and hardwork. He carried boxes of produce for a grocery store and sold bread torestaurants while launching a vending machine business that sells soft drinksand snack foods to workaholic computer engineers.In 1980, on hisroute as a bread salesman for a bakery, Aerts ran into the owner of a Pac Mangame control panel who was servicing his equipment at a restaurant in Oakland,California. Aerts, who always wore a shirt and tie on sales calls, wasimpressed by the other fellow’s jeans and T shirt and resolved to branch out onhis own.But capitalism requires capital, and Aertshad little money to spare. Living paycheck to paycheck with his wife andnewborn son, he worked days at the bakery and nights at a grocery store to paythe mortgage. During downtime between jobs, he developed his business strategy.“I’m sure I did every wrong thing you can possibly do,” says Aerts. “But I knewthat with enough hard work, it would all make sense.”To get hisbusiness off the ground, he relied on a second mortgage and credit cards,sometimes paying rates as high as 19%, to buy video game and vending machines.After purchasing several machines at retail price, he realized he could buythem directly from the manufacturers for less. And he learned that vendingmachines were more profitable than video games, which needed to be replacedfrequently to keep up with the fickletastes of gamers. Aerts used the contacts he made through his bakery job toprospect for new business. To hedge his bets, he put in ten years at thegrocery store to earn a modest pension.Today, Aerts’scompany, Custom Vendi ng Systems, is the largest privately owned vendor in theregion. He says business is booming as the Valley’s economy blossoms after its2000 bust. In 2005, Aerts and his wife donated $ 2.5 million to fundscholarships at the local community college. He’s stil l busy around theclock, but now he dedicates evenings and weekends to charity work and localpolitics instead of a second job.Section BDirections: Matchthe Chinese sentences with their EnglishEquivalents.Part 1Part 2。

2010英语专转本试卷
2010年专转本英语考试试卷第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension(共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage .Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’eyes , and that our Grandmas think We’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you built a positive self-image and learnt to love yourself.Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice .If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes.The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way.( )1.You need to build a positive self-image when you________.A. dare to challenge yourselfB. feel it hard to change yourselfC. are unconfident about yourselfD. have a high opinion of yourself( )2.According to the passage, our self-images________.A. have positive effectsB. are probably untrueC. are often changeableD. have different functions( )3.How should you change your serf-image according to the passage?A. Keep a different image of others.B. Make your life successful.C. Understand your ownD. Change the way you think.( )4.What is the passage mainly about?A. How to prepare for your success.B. How to face challenges in your life.C. How to build a positive self-image.D. How to develop your good qualities.( )5.Who are the intended readers of the passage?A. Parents.B. AdolescentsC. EducatorsD. People in general.Passage 2Questions6 to 10 are based on the following passage.Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as“honor”help you create this life of good feelings.Here’s an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerk’s mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first case, where we don’t tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect .We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk’s attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we take honorable actions we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And it’s easy to think and act honorably again when we’re happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once it’s started, it’s easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.( )6.According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our_______.A. self-respectB. financial rewardsC. advertising abilityD. friendly relationship ( )7. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to______.A.1yingB. stealingC. cheatingD. advertising( )8. The phrase “bringing the error t o clerk’s attention” (Para.5)means________.A. telling the truth to the clerkB. offering advice to the clerkC. asking the clerk to be more attentiveD. reminding the clerk of the charged item ( )9.How will we feel if we let the clerk know the mistake?A. We’ll be very excited.B. We’ll feel unfortunate.C. We’11 have a sense of honor.D. We’ll feel sorry for the clerk.( )10.Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A. How to Live TruthfullyB. Importance of PeacefulnessC. Ways of Gaining Self-respectD. Happiness through HonorablePassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage .“Sesame Street”(芝麻街)has been called“the longest street in the world”.That is because the television program by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world. That program became one of America’s exports soon after it went on the air in the New York in 1969.In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. The viewers include more than half of the nation’s pre-school children. Although some educators object to certain elements in the program, parents praise it highly. Many teachers also consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems arise when first graders who have learned from“Sesame Street”are in the same class with children who have not watched the program.The program uses songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships. Tests have shown that children have benefited from watching“Sesame Street”.Those who watch five times a week learn more than the occasional viewers. In the United States the program is shown at different times during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.Why has“sesame street”been so much more successful than other children’s shows? Many reasons have been suggested. People mention the. educational theories of its creators, the support by the government and private businesses, and the skillful use of a variety of TV tricks. Perhaps an equally important reason is that mothers watch“Sesame Street”along with their children. This is party because famous adult stars often appear on“Sesame Street”. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.( )11.Why has“Sesame Street” been called“the longest street in the World'”?A. The program has been shown ever since1969.B. The program became one of America’s major exports soon after it appeared on TV.C. The program is now being watched in most parts of the world.D. The program is made in the longest street in New York.( )12.Some educators are critical of the program because ________.A. they don’t think it fit for children in every respect.B. it takes the children too much time to watch it.C. it causes problems between Children who have watched it and those who have notD. some parents attach too much importance to it( )13. So many children in the United States watch the program because_________.A. it uses songs, stories and jokes to give them basic knowledgeB. it is arranged for most children to watch it regularlyC. tests have shown that it is beneficial to themD. both A and B( ) 14.Mothers often watch the program along with their children because_________.A. they enjoy the program as much as their childrenB. they find their children have benefited from watching the programC. they are attracted by some famous adult stars on the showD. they can learn some educational theories from the program( )15.What is the most important reason for the success of the program according to the author?A. The creators have good educational theories in making the program.B. The young viewers find they can learn something from it.C. Famous adult stars often appear in the program.D. It gets support from the government and private businesses.Passage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.You will have no difficulty in making contact with the Agent. As you enter his office, you will be greeted immediately and politely asked what you are looking for. The Estate Agent’s Negotiator (房地产推销员)——as he is called——will probably check that you really know your financial position. No harm in that, but you can always tell him that you have confirmed the position with the XYZ Building Society. He will accept that.He will show you the details of a whole range of properties；many of them are not really what you are looking for at a11.That does not matter. Far better turn them down than risk missing the right one.The printed details he will give you are called“particulars”.Over the years, a whole language has grown up, solely for use in Agent’s particulars. It is flowery, ornate (华丽的) and, providing you read it carefully and discount the adjectives, it can be very accurate and helpful.Since the passing of the Trades Description Act, any trader trying to sell something has had to be very careful as to what they say about it. Estate Agents have, by now, become very competent at going as far as they dare. For instance, it is quite acceptable to say“delightfully situated”. That is an expression of his opinion. You may not agree, but he might like the idea of living next to the gasworks. If, on the other hand, he says that the house has five bedrooms when, in fact, it has only two, that is a misstatement of fact and is an offence. This has made Estate Agents, and others for that matter, rather more careful.Basically, all that you need to know about a house is：how many bedrooms it has；an indication of their size；whether the house has a garage；whether there is a garden and whether it is at the back or the front of the house；whether it is semi-detached or terraced(联排的).( )16.The Estate Agent’s Negotiator will _______.A. want all the details of your financial circumstancesB. want to satisfy himself that you understand the financial implications of buying a houseC. check your financial position with the XYZ Building SocietyD. accept any statement you make about your financial position（）17.The author believes_________.A. it is better to be given information about too many properties than too fewB. you should only look at details of properties of the kind you have decided to buyC. the agent will only show you the details of properties you have in mindD. it doesn’t matter if you miss a few properties you may be interested in( )18.The adjectives in Agent’s particulars are _________.A. accurateB. helpfulC. both accurate and helpfulD. safe to ignore( )19.The Trades Description Act applies ________.A. house agents onlyB. most estate agentsC. any traderD. buyers of houses( )20.The phrase“going as far as they dare”(Para.4)probably means_________.A. covering as wide an area as possibleB. selling houses as far from the estate agent's houses as possibleC. telling lies about properties if nobody is likely to find out about it .D. trying every possible means to make the description of houses sound attractivePart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)( )21.Scientists will have to________ new methods of increasing the world’s food supply in order to solve the problem of famine in some places.A. come up forB. come down withC. come down toD. come up with( )22.I’d like to rent a house, modem, comfortable and _______ in a quiet and safe neighborhood.A. all in allB. above allC. after allD. over all( )23.
