56. According to the passage, the purpose of the vocabulary game is to ______.A. combine English learning with helping hungry peopleB. make it popular in English-speaking countriesC. encourage people to produce more riceD. provide English learning for poor areas57.

People of different vocabulary levels can play the game because ______.A. it is free of chargeB. it offers fair chances to everyoneC. it changes levels with their performanceD. it meets the needs of people in different fieldsBIn a room at Texas Children Cancer Center in Houston, eight-year-old Simran Jatar lay in bed with a drip (点滴) above her to fight her bone cancer. Over her bald (秃的) head, she wore a pink hat that matched her clothes. But the third grader’s cheery dressing didn’t mask her pain and weary eyes.Then a visitor showed up. ―Do you want to write a song?‖ asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart equipped with an electronic keyboard, a microphone and speakers. Simran stared. ―Have you ever written a poem?‖ Anita Kruse continued. ―Well, yes,‖ Simran said.Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone. ―Some bird soaring through the sky,‖ she said softly. ―Imagination in its head…‖ Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣, 唱) birds, and finally the girl’s voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song.That was the beginning of Anita Kruse’s project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer and pianist who had performed at the hospital, Kruse said that the idea of how she could help ―came in one flash‖.The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkin’s disease who rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he called I Can Make It.―My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses,‖ says Anita Kruse. ―But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families.‖Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to her song, Always Remembering, and they always remember the ―really sweet and niceand loving‖ lady who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour.59.Simran Jatar lay in bed in hospital because ______.A. most of her hair had fallen outB. she was receiving treatment for cancerC. she felt depressed and quit from schoolD. she was suffering from a pain in her back60.What do we know about Anita Kruse’s project?A. It helps young patients record songs.B. It is supported by singers and patients.C. It aims to replace the medical treatment.D. It offers patients chances to realize their dreams.61.What does the case of a 12-year-old boy suggest?A. Most children are naturally fond of music.B. He was brave enough to put up performance.C. The project has positive effect on young patients.D. Singing is the best way to treat some illnesses.62. What is probably the best title for the passage?A. Purple Songs Can FlyB. Singing Can Improve HealthC. A Shining Moment in LifeD. A Kind Woman—Anita KruseCHigh Speed Book ScannerSimply turning pages of a book quickly may not seem like the best way to scan it. A Japanese research group at Tokyo University has created new software that allows hundreds of pages to be scanned within minutes. Scanning text is normally a boring process with each page having to be inserted into a scanner, but the team led by Professor Masatoshi Ishikawa uses a high speed camera that takes 500 pictures a second to scan pages as they are turned by workers.Normal scanners can only scan the information that is actually before them on the page. This high speed book scanner uses a camera that captures pages at 1000fps as they are turned. A system built in allows it to automatically correct any changes to the text due to the page bending as well as light differences due to shadows. ―It takes a shot of the shape, then it calculates the shape and uses those calculations to film the scanning,‖Ishikawa said, explaining the system used to reconstruct the original page.The current system is able to scan an average 250-page book in a little over 60 seconds using basic computer hardware. While it now requires extra time to process the scanned images (影像), the researchers hope to eventually make the technology both faster and much smaller. ―In the more distant future, once it becomes possible to put all of this processing on one chip (芯片) and thenput that in an iPad or iPod, one could scan just using that chip. At that point, it becomes possible to scan something quickly to save for later reading,‖ Ishikawa said.Being able to scan books with an iPhone may be further off, but Ishikawa says that a commercial version of the large-scale computer based scanning system could be available in two or three years. While the technology has the potential to take paper books into the digital age, it remains to be how publishers will react to people scanning their books while just turning pages quickly.63. According to the passage, the advantage of the new scanning software is that ______.A. there is no need to scan every pageB. it can work much more effectivelyC. no manpower is needed in operating the scannerD. it can make the scanning process more interesting64. According to Ishikawa, the scanner works by_____.A. changing the shape of the imagesB. reducing the size of the imagesC. reconstructing the original pageD. scanning several pages at the same time65. What is Ishikawa’s attitude towards the development of the scanning system?A. Optimistic.B. Uncertain.C. Disapproving.D. Cautious.66. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. People will get any book they like more easily.B. Publishers will refuse to comment on the new software.C. Publishers will probably not welcome the new software.D. People won’t need to buy books any more with an iPhone.DVisitors to museums have to pay ―voluntary‖ admi ssion fees, Boris Johnson, the mayor (市长) of London, urged yesterday. He said that encouraging visitors to set a value on museums and art galleries, which have been free since 2001, would work extremely well. Mr. Johnson held up New York’s Metropoli tan Museum of Art as a model. Although New Yo rk’s museums are officially free, visitors are strongly encouraged to pay a recommended entry fee of $20. At the Met, entry is impossible without first going to the ticket desk.Mr. Johnson’s spokesman later admitted that free admission was a ―huge draw‖ for London, but he said, ―Having visited the Met last week, the mayor is impressed by how they maximize voluntary contributions and believes there are lessons to be lear nt.‖ Mark Jones, director of the Victoria and Albert Museum, told The Times that the museum already requested a £3 donation but was not as forceful as New York’s institutions. He said, ―I’m not in favor of anything that makes people feel they won’t want to go because they feel like they will have to pay.‖When entrance fees to national museums were decided not to be charged here in 2001, there was a 70 percent increase in visitor numbers in the first year. Political parties have since been unwilling to suggest change, despite concerns about cost. Hugo Swire, the former Shadow Culture Secreta ry, was dismissed in 2007 for suggesting that ―museums and galleries should have the right to charge if they wish‖.Some in the art community argue, however, that free entrance has done little to increase the breadth (广泛) of visitors and has caused shortfalls in the budget for the museums. In response to it, Colin Tweedy, chief executive of Arts & Business, said that Britain was ―leading the world‖ in allowing its treasures to be freely available. He said, ―To return to museum charging would be a return to the dark ages.‖Ben Bradshaw, the Culture Secretary, said, ―The mayor revealed his true intention when he suggested those who could afford it should be encouraged to contribute to the arts. I believe it is a disaster for the culture, arts and sport.‖ He thinks that free museums and galleries have once been one of this Government’s great successes.67. It can be inferred from the first two paragraphs that ______.A. museums in London are free by nowB. most museums in London have admission feesC. Metropolitan Museum of Art is not officially freeD. free entry is impossible to New York’s museums68. We can learn from Mark Jones’ words that ______.A. his museum shows a lack of moneyB. admission fees should be forcefulC. he is in favor of New York’s actionD. he has a consideration for the visitors69. According to the passage, the cancellation of entrance fees to national museums in 2001 _____.A. was changed in 2007 by Hugo SwireB. has been opposed by political partiesC. has no influence on the number of visitorsD. has caused financial problems to the museums70.What does the underlined word ―it‖ in the last paragraph refer to?A. Charging entrance fees to museums.B. Decrease in the number of visitors.C. Ensuring visitor s’ benefits.D. Free access to museums.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容, 从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Jean-Pierre hurried down to me．“Are you OK?” he asked．“I think I broke my leg,” I answered．“I’d better radio for help!” he said．“Where are the others?” We couldn’t see Maurice or Mary anywhere．Jean-Pierre called the emergency radio number, and the police said they would send help right away．It seemed like hours, but only minutes later we heard the welcome sound of a helicopter．The helicopter couldn’t land on the mountainside, so they lowered two men, two dogs, and a stretcher（担架）．One man ran to me, but I told him to search for the others．The dogswere trained for avalanche rescue and soon began to dig crazily in the snow．Bernardo, the lead dog, found Mary’s scarf and led the rescuers to her．Maurice was nearby．The men gave us hot drinks and warm blankets and then prepared to lift us into the helicopter．Two men inside the helicopter pulled us up with the ropes．I went first on the stretcher．Once we were safely inside, the helicopter flew to the hospital in Chamonix．Our poor rescuers and their dogs had to climb all the way back down the mountain．Later we would find these brave men and thank them for saving our lives．56．What prevented the climbers from reaching the top?A．The terrible weather．B．The loss of the sunglasses．C．The injury of the team members．D．The unexpected height of the mountain．57．How did the writer break his leg?A．The road was covered with snow．B．His companion knocked into him．C．The heavy clouds blocked his view．D．The avalanche caused a fall for him．58．How did the writer feel while waiting for help?A．Anxious．B．Crazy．C．Sorry．D．Annoyed．59．What do we learn from the passage?A．Mary was the leader of the team．B．The team was upset about their failure．C．It was several hours before the rescue team arrived ．D．The writer was excited thinking of climbing Mount Blanc．BThis is an open letter to the three people who stole my handbag from the department store I am employed as a shop assistant ．When you took my bag, I don't know what you thought you were going to get．With my wages, there's not much left on a Tuesday．I hope the￡5 was useful to you ．I have informed the social security office so you won't be able to cash the child benefit next week ．I hope that won't leave you too short．But if you really need a couple of pounds, I suppose you could always cash one of the two checks left in my check book．Of course,I phoned the bank right away and the check-casing card is no longer valid, so it won’t be much use to you ．Actually I don't mind about the money too much．We single parents who work to support our families understand only too well what it means to be short of cash ．However, I don’t suppose it went very far among the three of you．Sorry about that!I wish you had left the bag behind and just taken the wallet and check book．There were all kinds of papers in it, and notes and things that I really need．I really think that was very inconsiderate of you ．I mean, how would you like something like that to happen to you?Well, perhaps the bag will turn up．It wasn't even an expensive one．just a plain, old brown leather shoulder bag．You probably dumped it in the nearest rubbish bin or threw it into the bushes. We've looked around, of course, but no one saw which way you went after you left the shop．I'm not really angry with you．I know how the pressures of modern living can affect us, but I am sad at the loss of my personal things．I feel violated and helpless．The police were very icy, and they just shrugged（耸）their shoulders．"It happens all the time," they told me ．Some small comfort, I suppose．But I've lost just a little more faith in human nature．And as my young son said when I told him what had happened, "Why? Mummy, why us?" I couldn't answer that question．I wonder if you can．60．In writing Paragraph 2, the writer wants to ．A．describe the contents of the bag in detail．B．give some suggestions to the three thievesC．tell the thieves hardly any money was availableD．state the fact that she was careless with the money61．Which of the following is the most valuable to the writer?A．The cash in her bag．B．The papers and notes in the bag．C．The handbag itself．D．The check books in the bag．62．What can we conclude about the police?A．They have doubts about human nature．B．They show sympathy for the woman．C．They think the case quite common．D．They are unable to find the thieves．63．Why does the author write the letter?A．To give the thieves a serious warning．B．To complain about the fall of morality．C．To call people’s attention to their belongings．D．To express her affection for her valuable bag．CA new power plant in Nakoso, Japan, might someday change everything for coal plants．Since the new power plant fired up in September, the designer, Mistubishi, is expecting to prove it's possible to burn coal without polluting．This technology is known as integrated gasification combined cycle （IGCC）．Proving IGCC works should give Mitsubishi's US partner, NRG Energy, the jump other hurdles to building new clean plants．The project promised to solve the problem of the ages for power plants: how to produce cheap, clean, reliable electricity．No existing technology can do all three perfectly．The problem is IGCC isn't there yet．It costs about 20 percent more than traditional plants．And even though it's easier to collect the resulting carbon dioxide from an IGCC plant than a traditional plant, there's no proven way to get rid of the greenhouse gas．One plan is to drill a shaft（通道）to pump the carbon dioxide underground, into saltwater formations．But there's no guarantee it will remain underground forever．NRG administrators think solving the IGCC riddles is worth the trouble because they expect the U．S．will soon limit the amount of carbon dioxide that power generators may give out ．"With the additional cost of IGCC, to just voluntarily build something that's 20 percent more expensive, that’s commercial suicide," NRG chief administrator, David Crane said．NRG administrators expect the cost to decline after six or seven plants are built．But other industry experts think it will take about a dozen plants for the price to be competitive with traditional coal plants．Takaya Watanabe, a vice general manager of Mitsubishi, admits that the cost challenges are difficult．“It’s good for a company to say we want to be green, but unless someone is willing to pay, it's a dream．It won't keep our family eating rice," he said．64．What is expected of the new technology?A．To make electricity without polluting the air．B．To produce energy without burning coal．C．To keep the use of electricity cheaper．D．To pump carbon dioxide more easily ．65．What's the biggest problem the companies are faced with?A．How to pump greenhouse gases．B．How to deal with the high cost．C．How to get along with other partners．D．How to improve the new technology．66．What can be inferred from the passage?A．New technologies are unacceptable to people．B．It's unlikely to build more new power plants．C．The companies are run on a tight budget．D．Going green is easier said than done．DPeople have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed．It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not, or why one is cooperative and another is competitive．Social scientists are, of course, extremely interested in these types of questions．They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors．There are no clear answers yet, but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have developed．As one might expect, the two approaches are very different from one another, and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory．The controversy is often referred to as “nature and nurture”．Those who support the “nature”side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors．That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abilities, characteristics, and behavior is central to this theory．Taken to an extreme, this theory maintains that our behavior is predetermined to such a degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts（本能）．Proponents of the “nurture”theory, or, as they are often called, behaviorists, claimed that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act．A behaviorist, B．F．Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings．The behaviorists’ view of the human being is quite mechanistic; they maintain that, like machines, humans’respond to environmental stimuli（刺激）as the basis of their behavior．Socially and politically, the consequences of these two theories are far-reaching．In the US, for example, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests．This leads some “anature” proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically lower in status than whites．Behaviorists, on the contrary, say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy, and that, as a result, they do not develop the same responses that whites do．Either of these theories cannot yet fully explain human behavior．In fact, it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes．That the controversy will continue for a long time is certain．67．This passage is mainly concerned with ．A．relation between personality and behaviorB．relation between behavior and environmentC．different accounts of patterns of human behaviorD．different theories of the formation of human behavior68．The underlined word " proponents'' in paragraph 2 means ．A．creators B．advisors C．advocates D．judges69．In paragraph 5 , the author mainly writes about ．A．the considerable influence of the two theoriesB．differences between the blacks and whitesC．racial discrimination in the United StatesD．different responds to intelligence tests70．What's the author's purpose in writing the passage?A．To call our attention to the changes of human behavior．B．To urge scientists to do more research in social science．C．To give us a detailed explanation of human behavior．D．To present an argument in the field of social science．When I walked into the house after school, the first thing I noticed was a box with items I recognized from my dad’s office．When he told me that he was laid off, I thought he was joking．Then I noticed his seriousness and realized he was telling the truth．My father has always been a hard worker. He has prided himself on his career. 71 I guess I had taken his work for granted.72 For starters, he was home all the time．In meant my bed had to be made, my room cleaned up, and my homework done right after school．I would come home every day to find him at the computer searching for jobs．73 He seemed down, though he tried to be optimistic．He asked my brother and me to spend less．I gave up my spending money, which wasn’t much．I also found a part-time job．74 He explained that he never wanted to be laid off again, so he was going to start his own business．Day by day, I watched him build it, On evening I asked if he needed help．“Only if it doesn’t affect school,” he said．I showed up at his office the next afternoon, and most afternoons after that for two months．75 The terrible experience for our family taught me how to deal with difficulties．Now I know that through creative problem-solving, I can always find Plan B. I can ask for help and take risks．What I have learned from my dad’s understanding of business and his work ethic（信条）are two of the most important lessons I will ever learn. And they will be my principles for success．A．Providing for our family has been his joy．B．I made every effort to solve his problems．C．I began to notice how losing his job had affected him．D．My father’s unemployment created many changes in our lives．E．After months of searching, my dad decided to go in a totally different direction．F．His courage and determination helped him to become successful in his new career．G．I always knew he was a hard worker, but watching him in action influenced me a lot．第一节情景作文（20分）假设你是北京某国际学校的学生会主席李华。

Some classmates wanted to hang several pretty pictures on the wall, while others thought it would be great to put some plants in the classroom. Most of us preferred the second idea. In the following week, a variety of beautiful plants were brought to the school, which immediately created a relaxing atmosphere. Every day after class, we devoted our spare time into caring these plants, watering them regularly. With fragrant flowers around us, we felt at peace with ourselves and it surely helped us reduce some stress.第二节开放作文（15分）One possible version:In the picture, we can see that a group of people are trying to get to the final destination following the way directed by an arrow; while only one man is taking a short cut.In our daily life, many people have got used to the common practices of settling problems. They just follow others, without thinking independently. They are unaware that there are better solutions, just like the majority of the people in the picture, none of whom has found the short cut. The only man, in contrast, has thought out of the box, which definitely saves him great effort and much time. So in my opinion, whatever we do, we should never stick to a fixed idea, and then we can find out a most effective way.2附：听力录音材料345。

But there are 36 that I am often reminded of and which may have had some bearing on my love of 37.When I was small I was somewhat 38of lightning and thunder. My father explained it. The explanation was in 39that a child could understand but was basically correct. I gained a better 40later, but I didn’t have to unlearn anything.What he said was that there was electricity in the clouds 41it travelled to the ground like a spark. When it travelled 42the air it made the air so hot that it 43. Then there was nothing where the air had been and the air all around rushed in to 44the space. He clapped his hands together very loud, 45to be the air rushing in, and said that makes the thunder. When I hear thunder, I can still hear that 46.He explained why if it was cloudy in the winter the night was warmer than if it was 47. It was one of those nights when the sky was full of stars: no moon, no town lights. But there were more stars than you could 48and they had color too. He said that if there were no clouds, we had no blankets and were 49to the universe. Our warmth was going to 50the whole universe. When there were clouds, they were like blankets and we were not exposed to the universe. I 51feel on the edge of space on a very clear night.I am sure there were many other lessons that I 52but no longer remember. What I did 53, in general, was that there were explanations and that the more I understood them, the more comfortable the world was to live in.

Depending on how you view the world, you can think of all the crimes and injustice and conclude that we’re bad, so we need a system of laws to keep us in check. However, there are also a lot of stories of good deeds. I think we’re all born good.Today, I took a trip to South Bend to attend my friends’ wedding reception. I had 36 the night before at the forecast and it said we were going to get about 3 inches of snow, so I thought, “That’s not so37 .” I set out on my journey and it was completely clear until I 38 to get towards Niles, M1…I was 39 with this ominous (不祥的)cloud. I thought to myself, “Hmm, this can’t be a good40 .” Soon enough, the highway became a snow-packed wall of white. I should have remembered that such severe changes in ____41____ are common in this part of America.I then tried to get to the populous area of South Bend and got 42 in the snow, 43 to turn left onto a street. I 44 for 20 minutes to dig myself out with only a scraper(刮刀).It wasn’t a very45 street, so I didn’t see many people. Just as I was starting to give up, a few people stopped by my car and then helped push me out of the snow bank. It was one person at first, and then a few others.Then, on the way to my destination, another lady got stuck. 46 , I got out and was 47 to offer the same help that I had received. At least five others joined me in my 48 to get her car unstuck. It is kind of storm that makes roads undrivable. South Bend 49 up getting over 3 feet of snow.In these 50 of kindness though, I was once again 51 of my belief that that all people are born good. These people didn’t have to stop and help me out. They ran the 52 of having their own cars stuck. Even for myself, it was a(an) 53 reaction to get out and push the lady’s car out too. I didn’t think about it 54 a second.I believe these situations really helped remind me that this world is a good place. Real life situations can55 good deeds.
