CWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in biotechnology.With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time.Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war.Today’s leading killers，such as heart disease，cancer，and aging itself，willbecome distant memories.In discussion of technological changes，the Internet gets most of the attention these days.But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times.How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death.Cells are the basic units of all living things，and until recently，scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells，such as those of brain cells，would not last forever.But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine.Sometime between 2050 and 2100，medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs.The medicine，made up of the basic building materials of life，will build new brain cells，heart cells，and so on－in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence，but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.随着科技、医学的发展，未来的某天，人类的寿命会得到无限制地延长。
年龄与疾病对生命不再构成威胁。
64．According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by ________.A．diseases and aging B．accidents and warC．accidents and aging D．heart disease and war 解析：选A。

Astronauts who are 31 to go there in the next decade may find plenty 32 water to slake（消除）their thirst. And with water present the 33 of finding some sort of life of Mars are 34 brighter.This is the view of forty geologists 35 have been analyzing 36 of pictures and other scientific 37 obtained（获得）by robot explorers in the sixties and seventies.To begin with, scientists thought the Red planet was as 38 as the Moon 39 dust storms swirling over vast sandy 40 . But now the picture isvery different 41 mountains and valleys carved by 42 glaciers and rivers rushing and rumbling deep underground.In a report on the analysis of the Martian pictures Dr Michael Car of the U.S. Geological Survey comments:“I am convinced 43 lots of water on Mars.” Any surface water will be in the 44 of ice. But it could save explorers from 45 to take so much 46 with them.The report says 47 Mars probably had a warmer climate in ages 48 due to its axis（轴）having been more tilted（倾斜）towards the sun.49 signs of plant or animal life have been detected by instruments landed on Mars, 50 the landing vehicles have been sent there for a few years.31.

He changed scientific thinking in the modern world. He is generally considered as the greatest physicist who ever lived. What’s more, he devoted a lot of his time and energy to working for human rights and progress.In 1933, while Einstein was visiting England and the United States, the Nazi government of Germany took all his things away, including his position and his citizenship. Einstein then settled down in the UnitedStates. In 1939, Einstein, who loved peace—afraid of a world in which only Hitler would had an atomic bomb（原子弹）—tried hard to persuade President Franklin D. Roosevelt in a famous letter to have the United States start uranium research. That Germany, after all, had no bomb, and that the first bomb would fall on Japan, could not have been expected. After the war, Einstein never stopped working for peace and reducing the number of soldiers in the world.Although he wasn’t connected with any accepted religion（宗教）, Einstein felt that trust in a personal God was too special an idea to be suitable to the God at work in this universe, but he never believed that the universe was one of chance or disorder. The universe to him was one of pure law and order. He once said, “God may know everything, but he is not hateful.”51. From the passage we know that .A. no scientist is as great as Albert Einstein during this centuryB. Albert Einstein was likely to be the greatest scientist of his timeC. Albert Einstein made the first atomic bomb for the United States of AmericaD. Albert Einstein gave up his German citizenship for political reasons52. If Einstein had known that Hitler had no atomic bomb and that the first atomic bomb would fall on Japan, he would .A. have continued his scientific researchB. have won another Nobel Prize for physicsC. not have advised starting uranium research in the U. S. A.D. not have moved to the U. S. A.53. Einstein in 1933.A. visited England and the U. S. A.B. lost everythingC. became a man without a countryD. both A and C54. Einstein believed that everything in the universe .A. was kept in order by its own lawB. had nothing to do with each otherC. happened in an irregular wayD. was made by the personal GodB“That’s funny! These fellows in the middle of the plate have died.”Dr Alexander Fleming was talking to another doctor in a laboratory in London. He had been studying some germs（细菌）that he was growing on a plate. They were very dangerous germs because they caused different kinds of illnesses that could kill people. Dr Fleming found that a mould（霉菌）had floated in through the window landing on the plate. It had killed some of the germs it had touched.“This certainly looks promising.” Fleming said. “We must grow some ofthis mould to see if it will kill other germs.”He named the strange mould “penicillin”. It proved to be a killer of many germs. Fifty mice were given deadly germs and then half of them were injected（注射）with penicillin. The twenty-five untreated mice died, but twenty-four of those lived that had been treated with penicillin. Dr Fleming wrote a report about what he had found out. Hardly anybody took any notice of it.In 1938 Dr Howard Florey, an Australian working in London, read Dr Fleming’s report and was very interested. He found that penicillin was effective in treating blood poisoning in human beings.When World War II broke out, it was not possible to make enough penicillin in England. Dr Florey went to America where he helped to have enormous amounts of this wonderful drug made. It saved the lives of thousands of soldiers, sailors and airmen who would have died from their wounds if the hospitals had not had penicillin.55. Dr Alexander Fleming .A. had been studying a mould which was very dangerous and could kill peopleB. had been studying some of the germs on a plate which could cure illnessesC. had been making experiments on some germs that he was growing on a plateD. had been making experiments on different germs that could help sick people to get better56. Some of the germs on the plate .A. had been killed by a mould floating in through the windowB. had been killing one another, which was a surprise to FlemingC. had been killed by a mould that had been grown by Dr Alexander FlemingD. had been killed by a mould found by another doctor57. The reason why the twenty-five mice died was that .A. they had been given deadly germs and had been injected with penicillinB. they were almost dead ahead of the experimentC. they were easy to die in the experimentD. they had been given deadly germs and had not been injected with penicillin58. In 1938, an Australian working in London named Howard Florey read Dr F leming’s report and .A. left England for America, making the drugB. went to America to save the lives of thousands of soldiers, sailors and airmenC. found penicillin effective in treating blood poisoning in human beingsD. went to America to make this drug for mice59. The word “enormous” means .A. 剩余的B. 恰当的C. 少许的D. 巨大的CEinstein, a great scientist of the age, was almost as strange as his Theory of Relativity.Once, while riding a street car in Berlin, he told the conductor that he had not given him the right change. The conductor counted the change again and found it to be correct, so he handed it to Einstein, saying, “The trouble with you is that you don’t know your figures.”Einstein said that there were only twelve people living who understood his Theory of Relativity although a good many books had been written to explain it.He had nothing but contempt（藐视）for the things most people set their hearts on—for fame and riches（财富）and luxury（奢华）.He didn’t want money or praise. He made his own happiness out of such simple things as his work and playing the violin and sailing his boat. Einstein’s violin brought him more joy than anything else in life. He said that he often thought in music.60. The conductor thought Einstein .A. wasn’t good at mathsB. had good memoryC. was either mad or strangeD. liked to make trouble61. Einstein meant that many people .A. knew his Theory of Relativity well because they could explain itB. had written to have grasped his theory correctlyC. pretended to have grasped his abstract theoryD. admired him very much62. The underlined part “set…hearts on” me ans .A. believeB. haveC. loveD. hateDLouis Pasteur, the famous French chemist and bacteriologist, invented “pasteurization”. In 1854 Pasteur was made head of the department of science at the University of Lille, and it was there that he made one of his most famous discoveries. Lille was a major center for wine and beer-making, and some of the local wine-makers asked Pasteur if he could help solve the problem of keeping wine fresh. At that time, it was believed that food and drinks go “bad”due to a purely chemical process (变化过程). But during a series of experiments Pasteur proved that tiny living organisms (微生物) caused food and drinks to go bad. In the case of wine and beer the organisms are already present in the form of the various yeasts (酵母) that caused the fermentation (发酵) process. Pasteur discovered that heating the wine gently for a few minutes after ithad fermented would kill off the yeast that was left in the wine, with the result that the wine would remain fresh for much longer. He also proved that food and drinks could be turned bad by other organisms that were present in the air, and that they too would keep fresh much longer if they were kept in airtight containers.The heating process was so successful that it made Pasteur famous. It was named “pasteurization” in his honour, and by about 1900 it had been widely used for processing and bottling cows’ milk. The result was a huge drop in the number of bottle-fed babies dying from infant diarrhea (婴儿腹泻) and from that time on it has been a standard treatment for milk and many other food products. This simple process has saved thousands, possibly millions, of lives worldwide.63. Pasteur became in 1854.A. the chairperson of the science department at the University of LilleB. the director of a chemical laboratory at the University of LilleC. the general manager of a large beer-making companyD. the president of the University of Lille64. According to the passage, Lille was a major center for in the mid-19th century.A. growing grain cropsB. making beer and wineC. doing chemical researchD. producing various kinds of yeasts65. In the last sentence of paragraph 1, the underlined word “they” ref ers to .A. wine and beerB. food and drinksC. the various yeastsD. other organisms66. We can infer from the passage that Pasteur’s discovery .A. is no longer widely used for treating milk and other food produtsB. did not bring much profit to the wine makers in LilleC. has done a lot of good to children in the worldD. has greatly reduced the number of wars in the worldEOn the first day of class, Mr Whiteson gave us a lecture about a creature(生物) called cattytiger, a kind of cat-like animal that completely disappeared during the Ice Age. He passed round a skull (头骨) as he talked, and we all felt interested and took notes while listening. Later, we had a test about that.When he returned my paper, I was very, very surprised. There was a very large cross through each of my answers. And so it was with everyone else’s in our class. What had happened? Everyone was wondering and couldn’t wait to get the answer.Very simple, Mr Whiteson explained. He had made up all that story about the cattytiger. There had never been such an animal. So why none of usnoticed that and how could we expect good marks for the incorrect answers?Needless to say, we got very angry. What kind of teacher was this?We should have guessed it out, Mr Whiteson said. After all, at the very moment he was passing around the cattytiger skull (in fact, a cat’s), hadn’t he been telling us that it completely disapp eared during the Ice Age? Clearly he was telling a lie. But we just kept busy making notes and none used his head. We should learn something from this. Teachers and textbooks are not always correct.67. We failed in the test because we didn’t .A. take notes while listeningB. show interest in what Mr Whiteson saidC. listen to the teacher carefullyD. think carefully68. We got angry because .A. Mr Whiteson didn’t tell us the truth about cattytigerB. we failed in the testC. we didn’t know why he played the joke on usD. there was no cattytiger69. Mr Whiteson gave us a special lesson .A. to show his special way of teachingB. to play a joke on usC. to help us learn our lessons betterD. so that we would no longer believe him70. Mr Whiteson meant that .A. teachers couldn’t make any mistakesB. textbooks might be wrong sometimesC. we should speak up if we thought our teacher or the textbook was wrongD. we shouldn’t believe our teachers because so metimes they might tell lies第四部分：书面表达（共两节，满分40分）第一节：完成句子（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）71.We haven’t found an effective medicine to _____________________ (治愈他的癌症) .( cure )72.Mary’s pale face suggested that _______________________ (她身体不健康) .

I discovered something I had 16 forgotten, something that happened to me as a child.One day, as I went to sleep after my sisters and I had said our prayers, I recalled the events of the day and how 17 I had behaved toward Mother. “I must make things right now,” I thought. Quietly I 18 out of bed and picked up the pencil and paper from the dresser, and then tiptoed into the hall. The 19 from the living room shone dimly. I knew Mother was downstairs still doing some sewing. I quickly 20 a note asking Mother to excuse me for being so 21 . I didn’t want my sisters to know my 22 so I added a postscript, “Please don’t let anyone else see this.” Then I 23 moved into my parents’ bedroom and put the letter under Mother’s pillow.The next morning when I 24 my bed after breakfast, I 25 found a return note under my pillow. Mother wrote that she loved me and 26 me.This became my way of apologizing whenever I talked 27 or disobeyed.

Even when we were 29 and when we sisters30 our childhood, she never mentioned them.When Mother passed away, I had to go through her personal belongings.

God第二部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）A★Growing up together across the street in Twin Falls, Idaho, Lisa Fry and Paula Turner never doubted their friendship would last forever. But after Fry married, moved to New York City and had a baby, her letters to Turner su ddenly went unanswered. “Do you think I’ve somehow offended(冒犯) her?”Fry asked her husband.Turner, meanwhile, had made herself believe she was no longer important to Fry. “She’s got a family now,” she told herself. “We’re just too different to be close like before.”Finally, Fry picked up the courage to call her old friend. At first, the conversation was awkward, yet soon they both admitted that they missed each other. A month later, they got together and quickly fell into their old habit of laughing and sharing confidences.“Thank goodness I finally took action,” Fry says. “We both realized we were as important to each other as ever.”There are good reasons to cherish(珍惜) our friendships. Some years ago a public-opinion research agency, Roper Starch Worldwide, asked 2007 people to identify one or two things that said the most about themselves. Friends are put in a higher place than homes, jobs, clothes and cars.“A well-established friendship carries a long history of experience and interaction that defines who we are and keeps us connected,”says Donald Pannen, a researcher. “It is a heritage(传统) we should protect.”Brant R. Burleson, professor of communication at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind., says, “The better friends you are, the more probable it’ll be for you to face conflicts.” And the result can be what you don’t want—an end to the relationship.The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended.36. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. A Broken FriendshipB. Cherish FriendshipC. What are Good Friends?D. How to Make Friendship Last Long?37. The underlined word “awkward” in Para. 3 probably means _______.A. feeling nervous and uncomfortableB. seeming not to careC. feeling easy and convenientD. seeming calm and comfortable38. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Lisa Fry and Paula Turner believed their frien dship wouldn’t last forever.B. Turner didn’t reply to Fry’s letters because she was too busy.C. People all think friends are far more important than homes, jobs, clothes and cars.D. Lisa Fry and Paula Turner misunderstood each other at first.39. What do you think the author will talk about next?A. How to mend the troubled friendships.B. Some more examples of good friends.C. Functions of Friendship.D. How to cherish friendship.B ★★In an interview, England football captain Beckham admitted his six-year-old son Brooklyn’s maths homework made him befuddled.Beckham, 30, admitted to being puzzled when Brooklyn recently asked for help with a schoolassignment and had to turn to his former Spice Girls pop star wife Victoria to help out.“Their homework is so hard these days. I sat down with Brooklyn the other day, and I had to turn it over to my wife, ‘Victoria, maybe you should do the homework tonight.’ ”“It’s done totally differently from what I was taught when I was at school, and you know, I co uld do nothing but ‘Oh my God, I can’t do this.’”“Brooklyn said, ‘Please do it with me.’ and I could say anything else but ‘I’ll read your book with you.’”The Real Madrid midfielder’s son attends the Runnymede College in the Spanish capital, which follows the British national curriculum(标准).The Mail on Sunday gave examples of some national curriculum maths questions set for seven-year-olds. They include: “Betty went to the shop at 11:45. She came back half an hour later. What time did she come back?” and “What is 12 divided by three?”B eckham also admitted he has no “lucky” pre-match routines (fixed and regular way of doing things), with them too being tough to remember. “I find that if I follow a routine ... it gets to the stage where you are thinking, ‘Right, is it the left side ... th e left boot that I put on first, or the right side?’ There are so many things that can go through your mind.”40. The passage is mainly about ______.A. Beckham’s cultural stateB. Beckham’s familyC. Beckham’s characterD. Beckham’s opinions towards ed ucation and pre-match routines41.

This may help you understand different kinds of relationships, what makes each relationship special, and how to communicate in a positive way.What makes a relationship healthy?__________: The most important part of any healthy relationship between two people is being able to talk and listen to each other. You and the other person can find out what your common interests are. You can share your feelings with the other person and trust that he or she will be there to listen to you and support you. In healthy relationships, people don’t lie. Communication is based on honesty and trust. By listening carefully and sharing your thoughts and feelings with other people, you show them that they play an important part in your life.Respect and Trust: In healthy relationships, you should learn to respect and trust important people in your life. Disagreements may still happen, but you learn to stay calm and talk about how you feel. Talking calmly helps you to understand the real reason for not getting along. It makes it much easier to find out how to fix it. In healthy relationships, working through disagreements often makes the relationship stronger.

But officials in the Brazilian town of Biritiba Mirim, 70km (45 miles) east of Sao Paulo, have gone far beyond that. They plan to forbid residents from dying early because the local cemetery(墓地) has reached full capacity.There’s no more room to bury the dead. They can’t be cremated(火化) and laws forbid a new cemetery. So the mayor has proposed a strange solution: outlaw death. Mayor Roberto Pereira says the bill is meant as a protest against federal rules that forbid new or expanded cemeteries in preservation areas. “They have not taken local demands into consideration”, he says.A 2003 decree(法令) by Brazil’s National Environment Council forbids burial grounds in protected areas. Mr. Pereira wants to build a new cemetery, but the project has been stopped because 98% of Biritiba Mirim is considered a preservation area.Biritiba Mirim, a town of 28,000 inhabitants, not only wants to forbid residents from passing away. The bill also calls on people to take care of their health in order to avoid death. “I haven’t got a job, nor am I healthy. And now they say I can’t die. That’s ridiculous,” Amarildo do Prado, an unemployed resident said.The city council is expected to vote on the rule next week. “Of course the bill is laughable, illegal, and will never be approved,” said Gilson Soares de Campos, an assistant to the mayor. “But can you think of a better resolution to persuade the government to change the environmental decree that is forbidding us from building a new cemetery?” The bill states that “offenders will be responsible for their acts”. However, it does not say what the punishment will be.52. What is the bill to be proposed by the officials in Biritiba Mirim about?A. Ban on smoking in public places.B. Ban on parking in certain zones.C. Forbidding residents from dying early.D. Forbidding burial grounds in preservation.53. What can we infer from the phrase “have gone far beyond that”?A. Officials in Biritiba Mirim have nothing of these rules.B. The bill to be proposed by officials in Biritiba Mirim is much too unerpected.C. Officials in Biritiba Mirim have been to many places around the world.D. The officials in Biritiba Mirim have built too many cemeteries in their town.54. What’s the attitude of the mayor of Biritiba Mirim towards the federal rules?A. He objects to them.B. He gives strong backing to them.C. He asks the residents for advice on them.D. He remains silent about them.55. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The mayor of the town wants to build a new cemetery against the federal rule.B. The residents of the town sing high praise for the bill.C. The government is going to change the environmental decree.D. No better resolution of the problems has been thought out.第三部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）Everybody want to be young.

Einstein was very pleased as he looked at the “magic” thing turning towards north. For him，the compass was not a toy but a new world.He was a curious child and would often daydream. His father was furious with him for the bad reports from his teachers. They told him that the boy was not interested in his studies. He was blamed by his father for being lost in his foolish dreams.On leaving school，his father wanted him to study electrical engineering. But he disliked becoming an engineer. He entered the Zurich Polytechnic Academy to prepare himself for a teaching position in mathematics and physics. Though he finished his studies，he was unable to get a job.Finally，he got a job in an office. In his spare time，he filled his notepaper with difficult mathematical formulas. Some of these later led to great scientific discoveries. When they were published，he became a famous scientist. He could not take his daily walk without being surrounded by reporters. He would only smile at them，and went on with his work in his quiet way.In 1921，Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize. The Queen of Belgium invited him to pay her a visit. He got off the train and walked to the palace. He wasn't willing to take the car sent to pick him up. When the Queen asked him，he looked at her with a smile and answered，“It was a very pleasant walk.” Einstein disliked wealth. Peace，he said，was what the world needed，and that could not be bought with money.1．Why did Einstein's father buy him a compass?A．To satisfy his curiosity.B．To let him play with it.C．To develop his interest in science.D．To help him create a dream world.2．What does the underlined word “furious” in paragraph 2 mean?A．Familiar.B．Strict.C．Angry.

These were Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre and Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. The youngest sister, Anne, was also a gifted novelist, and her books have the same extraordinary, quality as her sisters'.Their father was Patrick Bronte born in Ireland. He moved with his wife, Maria Bronte, and their six small children to Haworth in Yorkshire in 1820. Soon after, Mrs. Bronte and the two eldest children died, leaving the father to care for the remaining three girls and a boy.Charlotte was born in 1816. Emily was born in 1818 and Anne in 1820. Their brother Branwell was born in 1817. Left to themselves, the children wrote and told stories and walked over the hills. They grew up largely self-educated. Branwell showed a great interest in drawing. The girls were determined to earn money for his art education. They took positions as teachers or taught children in their homes.As children they had all written many stories. Charlotte, as a young girl, alone wrote 22 books,each with 60 to 100 pages of small handwriting. Therefore, they turned to writing for income. By 1847, Charlotte had written The Professor; Emily, Wuthering Heights; and Anne, Agnes Grey. After much difficulty Anne and Emily found a publisher (出版商), but there was no interest shown in Charlotte's book. (It was not published until 1869. ) However, one publisher expressed an interest in seeing more of her work. Jane Eyre was already started, and she hurriedly finished it.It was accepted at once；Thus each of the sisters bad a book published in 1847.Jane Eyre was immediately successful；The other two, however, did not do. so well. People did not like Wuthering Heights. They said it was too wild, too animal-like. But gradually it came to be considered one of the finest novels in the English language. Emily lived only a short while after the publication of her book, and Anne died in 1847.Charlotte published Shirley in 1849 and Villette in 1863. In 1854 she married Arthur Bell Nicholls. But only a year later, she died of tuberculosis (肺结核) as her sisters had.66. What did the Bronte sisters want to do for Branwell Bronte?A. Help him write stories.B. Help him get trained in art.C. Teach him how to draw well.D. Teach him how to educate himself.67. We know from the text thatA. Jane Eyre was published in 1847B. Charlotte Bronte wrote 22 books in allC. the Bronte sisters received good educationD. Patrick Bronte helped his daughters with their writing68. Which of the following was published after the death of its writer?A. Shirley.B. Villette.C. Agnes Grey.D. The Professor.69. The underlined words "the other two" in the 5th paragraph refer toA. Shirley and VilletteB. The Professor and Agnes GreyC. Agnes Grey and Wuthering HeightsD. The Professor and Wuthering Heights70. What do we know about the Bronte sisters from the text?A. Their novels interested few publishers.B. None of them had more than two books published.C. None of them lived longer than 40 years old.D. Emily was the least successful of the three.BHow could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments－mostly for entertainment purposes－is fair and respectful?Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats(栖息地). Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.Zoos claim(声称) to educate people and save endangered species(物种), but visitors leave zoos without having learned anythi ng meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range(分布区). The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding(圈养繁育) of endangered big cats. Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.71．How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoo s?A．Dangerous. B．Unhappy. C．Natural. D．Easy.72．In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.A．remain in cages B．behave strangelyC．attack other animals D．enjoy moving around73．What does the author try to argue in the passage?A．Zoos are not worth the public support.B．Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.C．Zoos should treat animals as human beings.D．Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.74．The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.A．pointing out the faults in what zoos doB．using evidence he has collected at zoosC．questioning the way animals are protectedD．discussing the advantages of natural habitats75．Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agree that __________.A．zoos have to keep animals in small cagesB．most animals in zoos are endangered speciesC．some endangered animals are reproduced in zoosD．it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitatsCA university graduate described as a “respectable and intelligent” woman is seeking professional help after being convicted of （证明有……罪）shoplifting for the second time in sixmonths.Ana Luz, recently studying for her PhD, has been told she could end up behind bars unless she can control the desire to steal from shops.Luz ,who lives with her partner in Fitzwilliam Road ,Cambridge ,admitted stealing clothes worth ￡9.95 from John Lewis in Oxford Street ,London ,on March 9.Phillip Lemoyne ,prosecuting（起诉）,said Luz selected some clothes from a display and took t hem to the ladies’ toilet in the store .When she came out again she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected ,having taken off the anti-theft security alarms（防盗警报装置）.She was stopped and caught after leaving the store without paying, Mr. Lemoyne said.He added that she was upset on her arrest and apologized for her actions.Luz, 28, was said to have been convicted of shoplifting by Cambridge judges last October, but Morag Duff, defending, said she had never been in trouble with the police before that.“She is ashamed and embarrassed but doesn’t really have any explanation why she did this,” Miss Duff said. “She didn’t intend to steal when she went into the store .She is at a loss to explain it. She is otherwise a very respectable and intelligent young lady .She went to her doctor and asked for advice because she wants to know if there is anything in particular that caused her to do this.”Judge David Azan fined Luz ￡50, and warned : “You’ve got a criminal record .If you carry on like this, you wi ll end up in prison, which will ruin your bright future you may have.”Luz achieved a degree in design at university in her native Spain ,went on to a famous university in Berlin , Germany for her master’s degree and is now studying for a PhD at Cambridge University ,UK.76．What is Ana Luz’s nationality?A．American. B．British. C．Spanish. D．German.77．What does the underlined sentence “She is at a loss to explain it” mean?A．In her opinion it was a loss to the clothes shops where she stole things .B．She doesn’t have any idea why she has the desire to steal from shops .C．She thinks it is a loss for her to explain why she stole things from shops.D．Personally she feels ashamed and embarrassed for her shoplifting actions.78．Which of the following best e xplains the meaning of the word “shoplifting” used in the passage?A．Carrying goods in a lift for a shop. B．Taking goods to the ladies’ toilet.C．Selecting some goods from a display. D．Taking goods from a shop without paying. 89．From the passage we can learn that .A．Ana Luz is already got her PhD at Cambridge University, UKB．Ana Luz is ashamed and embarrassed and knows why she often did soC．the university graduate will be put in prison if she steals in shops once moreD．Phillip Lemoyne is the “respectable and intelligent” woman’s defense lawyer80．What would be the best title for the passage?A．Shoplifting Shame of a PhD Student B．Apologizing for the Actions in ShopsC．Seeking Professional Help from Experts D．Controlling the Desire to Steal from ShopsDThe other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7.30pm. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.By 9.45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11.00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry.Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6.30 -8.30pm means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8.00pm or 8.30pm means possible dinner, but 9.30pm and any time thereafter means no food, oat beforehand, roll up late.But this is not always the case. If asked to a students' party at 6.30pm, it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all, and no one cares. Being the first to arrive - looking eager - is social death. When my mother is asked to a party for 6.30, she likes to be them, if not on lime, then no later than seven. My age group （late thirties）falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we're young, we're probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.The accepted custom at present is confusing （纷乱的）, sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element （成分）of surprise.81. The underlined words "off their heads" probably mean______.A. tiredB. crazyC. curiousD. hopeless82. Jane and David' s story is used to show that______ .A. petty-goer8 usually get hungry at partiesB. party invitations can be confusingC. people should ask for food at partiesD. birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull83. For some young people, arriving on time for a students' party will probably beconsidered_______.A. very difficultB. particularly thoughtfulC. friendly and politeD. socially unacceptable84. According to the writer, people in their late thirties_______.A. are likely to arrive late for a partyB. care little about the party timeC. haven' t really grown up yetD. like surprises at parties85. What is the general idea of the text?A. It' s safe to arrive late just when food is served.B. It' s wise to eat something before going to a party.C. It' s important to follow social rules of party-going.D. It' s necessary to read invitations carefully.II 卷部分第四部分：单词拼写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）86．She felt g________ about leaving her sick child and going to work.87．I must a________ for not being able to meet you at the airport on time.88．Whenever I get into trouble, he comes to my help without h_________.89．In order to avoid the p_________ for the wrong that he had done, he went to a European country in 1981.90．He was too s__________ to admit that he was wrong and refused to say sorry to his girl friend. 91．If you want to pass your exams, you’d better change your a__________ toward study. 92．She was a________ to graduate from college and get a well-paid job.93．You’ve put me in a very a_______ position and now I don’t know how to deal with the matter. 94．I tried to p__________ him to change his mind but he refused to follow my advice.95．I am sorry that I was a______________ just now and didn’t quite catch what you said.第五部分：对话填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）A: Hello.

AJournalists who changed the worldHelen ThomasHelen was a White House reporter who had a front row seat of history as she interviewed nine American presidents across her career. She was praised for her cruel drive, with one White House press secretary describing her questioning as torture (拷问 ). Her refusal to hide her strong opinions, even when asking questions to a president, made her one of the best known journalists in Washington and a role in her field.Marie ColvinThe passionate and award-winning American journalist Marie Colvin worked as a foreign reporter at The Sunday Times from 1985 until she died in February 2012, doing what she loved. Marie crossed into Syria on the back of a motorcycle, ignoring the Syrian government's attempt to prevent foreign journalists from entering the country.Mary GarberIn 1946, sports journalism was a man's job where female sports writers weren't allowed to enter press boxes. Mary Garber changed that by paving the way for female sports writers. She first covered high school sports and then reported on college athletics. In June 2005, she became the first woman to receive the Associated Press Sports Editors' Red Smith Award, presented annually since 1981 for major contributions to sports journalism.Ann LeslieFew reporters have filed stories from more than 70 countries, but British journalist Ann Leslie is considered a unique force in journalism. Because the 73-year-old woman has witnessed and reported on some of the most significant events of the late20th century. She was there when the Berlin Wall came down, and she lost her shoes in the crush waiting for Nelson Mandela's release.1.What can we know about Helen Thomas?A.She made friends with nine American presidents.B.She was strong-minded and never gave in to others.C.She often got into trouble due to her questions.D.She was regarded as the best journalist in America.2.Who opens the door for women sports reporters?A.Helen Thomas.B.Marie Colvin.C.Mary Garber.D.Ann Leslie.3.Why is Ann Leslie called a unique force in journalism?A.She has visited many countries.B.She devotes herself to her job.C.She has experienced some great events.D.She tried her best to save Nelson Mandela.BJohn von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he might lead a poor life being a mathematician, so von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry. In 1930, von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others).World War II hugely changed von Neumann's areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematical theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died of cancer in 1957.Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.Von Neumann really was a legend in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of his legend. He reported one accident this way: "I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path."4.According to the text, von Neumann's father believed that ___.A.a mathematician couldn't earn a lot of moneyB.a mathematician needed a good memoryC.von Neumann had the ability to learn two subjects at the same timeD.von Neumann had the gift for solving problems at a high speed5.Von Neumann published his first book at the age of ___.A.25B.26C.29D.326.How did World War II affect John von Neumann?A.He realized the importance of engineering.B.He began to research how to put mathematics into practice.C.He left college and served at the government department.D.He lost interest in chemistry.7.From the last paragraph, we can infer John von Neumann was ___.A. calmB. braveC. intelligentD. humorousCWhat's the meaning of the "dark horse"? It's someone who wins when no one expects it.Han Xiaopeng took China's first gold on snow. He became an Olympic "dark horse" by winning the gold medal in men's freestyle skiing aerials (自由式滑雪空中技巧 ) at Turin in Italy. He made two almost perfect jumps for the highest score. Han had never won a world gold medal before, let alone in the Olympics!"I never thought this would happen," said Han Xiaopeng. "I feel like I'm in a dream." It's China's second gold medal at the Turin Olympic Winter Games. But more important, Han's gold was the country's first ever in a snow sport. In 2002, China's Yang Yang won the gold for speed skating at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, US.That Han's win was unexpected doesn't mean that he didn't work hard.Han grew up in Jiangsu Province. Before he started his training on snow, he used to be an acrobat (杂技演员) at a circus. In 1995, a coach found his talent. The coach, Yang Er'qi , said Han had the agility (灵活性) and courage to be a ski jumper. When Yang first took the 12-year-old boy to northern China, he couldn't swim, skate or ski. But he wasn't afraid of the high platform and kept on training.Han almost left the sport after hurting his knee months before the Salt Lake Games. In that Olympics he only got 24th. "I was hopeless at that time, but my family and the coach stood firmly behind me, helping me through," he recalled.Han Xiaopeng worked so hard that he won the gold medal in the Olympics at last. Because of his success, more and more people in China are becoming interested in skiing. We are proud of him.8.What does the "dark horse" mean?A.A horse which is dark.B.Someone who is unexpected to win.C.A horse which likes the dark.D.Someone whose win is expected.9.Where did Han Xiaopeng take China's first gold on snow?A.In China.B.In Italy.C.In America.D.In Australia.10.What made the coach, Yang Er'qi, choose Han Xiaopeng to be a ski jumper?A.He had enough courage though he was only 13 years old.B.He was born in the south of China and liked sports on snow.C.He had the agility and wasn't afraid of the high platform.D.He had the talent and he had won a world gold medal before.11.What is the best title for this passage?A.A Wonderful MatchB.A Dark Horse at the Winter OlympicsC.A Hopeful Snow GameD.An Exciting Skiing RaceDCan I talk about salary at work? In a word: yes. As the HR company Insperity put it in a recent blog post: Can your employees discuss their salaries or wages with their co-workers? Yes. Even if you have a company policy against it? Yes.The freedom to discuss your salary at work is a protected right under the labor law. The National Labor Relations Act of 1935 protects your right to discuss the conditions of your employment, including issues related to safety and pay, even when you're not protected by a union.Talking about salary with colleagues can be uncomfortable, since there's such a taboo about discussing money matters, but it's an important step towards achieving equal pay for equal work. One barrier, however, stems from how we think of our own financial worth. Too many people I talk to wrongly consider their salary a reflection of their worthiness, a statement about their skills, experience, or value. At the end of the day, if we can all separate our self-worth from our salaries a bit more, it'll become easier to talk frankly with our colleagues.Asking about money outright can be tough, so one trick I've picked up along the way is to ask for your colleagues to confirm or deny. For instance, you might volunteer your salary first and ask "Does that sound right to you?" by way of comparison. Or, let's say you're interviewing for a promotion to become a manager. You might ask a fellow manager about the kind of salary you should expect by saying, "I'm seeing salaries for this kind of position ranging from $65,000 to$ 70,000—does that seem accurate to you?" This way, even if your colleague isn't comfortable sharing their salary outright, they can help you identify if your expectations are appropriate.12.What makes co-workers uncomfortable to talk about salaries?A.The safety issue.B.The labor law.C.The wrong idea about salaries.D.The reflection of their worthiness.13.What does the underlined word "taboo" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.A prohibited practice.B.A firm belief.C.A general agreement.D.A social custom.14.What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 4?A.One of my interview experiences.B.My way of asking about money.C.The method of raising questions.D.An example of getting promoted.15.What can be the best title for the text?A.How to Discuss Salaries at WorkB.Ways of Talking about SalariesC.Do Salaries Stand for Self-worth?D.Can Salaries be Talked about at Work?第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
