Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems．For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants（居民）of a country．If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhap py．They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely．They forget how much touri sm can help the country’s economy．It is important to think about the people of a destinatio n country and how tourism affects them．Tourism should help a country keep the customs a nd beauty that make tourists feel much interested．Tourism should also advance the well being （health and happiness） of local inhabitants．Too much tourism can be a problem．If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave othe r jobs to work in the tourism industry．This means that other parts of the country’s econom y can suffer．On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs．Businesses can als o lose money．It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, firs t-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions．For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50thousand dollars per room to build．If this room i s not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money．Building a hotel is just a beginning．There must be support facilities as well, including roawaste and water．All of ds to get to the hotel, electricity, large underground pipes to_these support facilities cost money．If they are not used because there are not enough touris ts, jobs and money are lost．（1）Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before t he passage？________A.It is extremely important to develop tourism．B.Building roads and hotels is essential．C.Support facilities are highly necessary．D.Planning is of great importance to tourism．（2）It is good for local people to well realize that tourism will________．e up a large amount of water．B.weaken their economy．C.help improve their life．D.help build up their traditions．（3）The word“handle”in the last paragraph most probably means________．A.carry away.B.pick up.C.get in.D.take down．（4）What’s the main idea of the passage？________．A.Advantages of tourism developing．B.The bad effects of tourism without well planning．C.The effects of tourism on the local industries．D.Disadvantages of too much tourism．25. Maggie was very glad that James did not often visit the house．In the child ren’s opinion , they had something that they couldn’t explain or understand about him and that excited the ir imagination．He caused Maggie’s anger, however, so that she often said to her husband, “It ’s a pity that brother of yours doesn’t come oftener．”In fact James came once a year, unexpectedly, around eight o’clock in the evening, and he st ayed for six hours of close discussion with his brother．His arrival was a signal to the childre n that their bedtime would be put off．Not that he ever spoke to them or played with them ．He took no notice of them, as if he was unable to see children, at least until the time came f or him to go．Indeed, after his first greeting and a careless kiss, James took no notice of Mag gie either, except to add, “You’ll be getting on with the supper, Maggie．”Such was his regard for her．Maggie paid him back in her own way．She kept the children up, the four of them, to stay a round her, she said, but of course they sang and made a noise and broke the endless sound of James’voice．Very late, they fell asleep in their chairs．Then, when James was about to go, Maggie woke them up and so more or less forced him to say goodbye to them with four penc e before he left．That gave her some satisfaction, for James, though rich, was unwilling to giv e or share what he had．He always went home by the last train, just after two o’clock．Maggie’s children secretly looked at their uncle．They could not forget that he had, in thei r mother’s words, “lost two wives and taken a third．”They wondered about those two unluc ky, lost ladies．They asked each other what their fate（命运）had been, and if neither could ever be found again．James never brought his third wife with him nor ever mentioned her．The children decided that he must be so frightened of losing h er that he never allowed her outside the door．（1）Maggie never prepared anything special for James because________．A.he was a man difficult to please．B.she never knew when he was coming．C.she was too busy looking after her children．D.he never stayed long enough for a meal．（2）About James’behavior we can learn that________．A.He was a kind man，with love for the family．B.He was unselfish，especially towards his brother．C.He hoped to please the family，especially the children．D.He was rude to his sister-in-law．（3）Maggie felt pleased when________．A.James thanked her for the nice supper．B.James gave some money to the children．C.she had to wake James up to catch his train．D.she paid James the money that she should give him．（4）The children did not realize that two of James’wives________．A.were dead.B.suffered from loss of memory．C.had run away from him.D.might re-appear one day．26. Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity．It may be walking, cycling or s wimming, or in winter, skating or skiing．It may be a game of some kind of football, hockey, golf, or tennis．It may be mountaineering （mountain climbing）．Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with much surprise．Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to ta ke risks on high mountains? This surprise is caused probably by the difference between mou ntaineering and other forms of activity in which men relax themselves．Mountaineering is a sport and not a game．There are no man-made rules, as for such games as golf and football．There are, of course, rules of a different k ind which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people．Those who climb mounta ins are free to use their own methods．If we compare mountaineering with other more famil iar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a“team game”．We should be mistaken in this．There are, it is true, no“matches”between“teams”of climbe rs, but when climbers are on a rock face joined by a rope on which their lives may depend, th ere is clearly teamwork．The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more p owerful than man．He has to fight the forces of nature．His sport requires high mental and physical qualities．A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year．A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions are in their early twent ies．But it is no unusual for a man of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps ．They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skill and l ess waste of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment．（1）The main difference between a sport and a game lies in________．A.uniform ．B.rules.C.activity ．D.skills．（2）Mountaineering is also a team sport because________．A.it connects to rules．B.it is about matches between teams．C.it needs mental and physical qualities．D.mountaineers depend on each other while climbing．（3）Which of the following statements is true？________A.Mountaineers fight against nature．B.Mountaineers fight against other teams．C.Mountaineers fight against each other．D.Mountaineers fight against international standard．（4）The best title for this passage will be________．A.My favorite mountaineering．B.The required skills of mountain climbing．C.Dangerous but attractive mountaineering．D.A sport proper for the old and the young．第四部分书面表达（共两节，满分15分）第一节完成句子（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下列各小题，根据句中的汉语提示和句末括号内所给的英语单词完成句子，并将答案写在答题卡上的相应题号后．27.On weekends I prefer going out to enjoy

In some countries, Teachers’ Day is celebrated on working days. However, in other countries, it is celebrated on holidays. Here we are giving you a list of countries that celebrate Teachers’ Day on holidays. China Teachers’ Day was proposed (提议) at National Central University in 1931. It was adopted (采纳) by the central government of Republic of China in 1932. In 1939, the day was set on August 27, Confucius’s (孔子) birthday. The government of the People’s Republic of China called it off in 1951. It was reestablished in 1985, and the day was changed to September 10. Now more and more people are trying to celebrate Teachers’ Day back to Confucius’s birthday. India In India, Teachers’ Day is celebrated on September 5, in honor of Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, the second President of India. 5th of September is his birthday. At some schools on this day, the senior students take up the responsibility of teaching as an appreciation for teachers. Russia In Russia, Teachers’ Day is on October 5th. Before 1994, this day was set on the first Sunday of September. The USA In the United States, Teachers’ Day is a holiday on the Tuesday of the first full week of May. Thailand January 16 was adopted as Teachers’ Day in Thailand by a resolution (决议) of the government on November 21, 1956. The first Teachers’ Day was celebrated in 1957. Iran In Iran, Teachers’ Day is celebrated on May 2 every year. It is in honor of the famous Iranian professor Ayatollah Morteza Motahhari who died on May 2, 1980.

Which country has the longest vacation for Teachers’ Day. B Every year on July 18, schoolchildren gather on Nelson Mandela’s doorstep to sing him “Happy birthday.” And every year, Mandela lights up with his famous, gentle smile and hugs each child, thanking him or her for the song. In 2008, Mandela enjoyed his 90th birthday at home in Qunu, South Africa. He received many gifts from around the world. But Mandela didn’t need a large celebration. He used this time to spread his messages of peace, freedom, equality and service. “There are many rich people in South Africa who can share their riches with the poor.” South Africans call Mandela “Madiba”. It’s an honorary title. South Africans love and respect Mandela because he helped bring the nation together after years of racism (种族主义) and segregation (种族隔离). Under South Africa’s laws, white people were separated from non-white people. Mandela fought hard to get rid of the laws and wanted South Africa to be a nation that treated all people equally. In 1944, Mandela co-founded the youth league of the African National Congress. It’s a group that fought for equality. In 1962, he went to prison. But he continued to fight for what he believed in and helped put an end to the unjust laws there. Mandela was freed from prison in 1990 and elected (选举) president in 1994. After serving a five-year term, Mandela stepped down as president. Across South Africa, organizations held celebrations in Mandela’s honor. In Johannesburg, South Africa’s largest city, children gathered at the Nelson Mandela Foundation, which Mandela set up to help to realize social justice. The children enjoyed a very big birthday cake. ( ) 46. Why do children go to Mandela’s home on July 18 every year? A. To share Mandela’s big birthday cake. B. To see Mandela’s famous, gentle smile. C. To get some kinds of help from Mandela. D. To show their love to Mandela on his birthday. ( ) 47. How long had Mandela been in prison?A. 4 yearsB. 18 yearsC. 28 yearsD. 32 years ( ) 48. What did Mandela use his birthday celebrations for? A. Receiving birthday presents. B. Meeting schoolchildren. C. Spreading his ideas. D. Fighting unjust laws. ( ) 49. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Mandela was happy to have children singing on his birthday. B. Mandela was the president of South Africa for more than 10 years. C. Non-whites could go to school or get good jobs just as the whites. D. People began to call Mandela “Madiba” before he was put in prison. ( ) 50. Which of the following would be the best title？ A. How Mandela became a president B. Mandela —— a modern hero C. Mandela’s 90th birthday celebration D. Mandela’s life in prison C Age. Age is a very sensitive (敏感的) subject for many Americans, especially women over age 30. The last question they want to be asked is “How old are you exactly?” Weight. This is one of the touchiest subjects. In America, it is desirable to be thin but it is a huge embarrassment to be overweight. Americans mind their weight very much. They don’t like to be asked about it------even if they are thin and in great shape. Income (收入). You should never ask how much others earn every month/year. However, it’s suitable to ask about their job titles or what they do for a living. This information will give you some ideas about how much they make a year. Matters of the Heart. Sometimes you’ll run into people who don’t want to pour their hearts out to you. The general rule is not to get too personal or too fast. Don’t make others think that you are looking into their lives. Therefore, try not to ask questions about someone’s love life, marriage and family until you have a deep friendship with the person. Is It Real? Many Americans stand for the all-natural look. But how many truly obey this rule? With products like colored contact lens (有色隐形眼镜), hair coloring, acrylic nails, etc, being seen, the answer would be: not many. Although the artificial (人造的) things appear to be real, they are not. So never say such words------“Hey, I love your eye color. Is it real?” All of the above are Americans’ taboo (禁忌的) subjects. It seems difficult to always keep away from conversation landmines (地雷). So, watch your steps and try not to open a can of worms. ( ) 51. What is the passage mainly about? A. Americans’ bad characters B. Americans’ common favorites C. Americans’ good habits D. Americans’ taboo subjects ( ) 52. According to the text, how can we have a general idea about an American’s income? A. By asking the person himself/herself. B. By asking the person’s workmates. C. By asking the person’s job title. D. By doing a survey secretly. ( ) 53. From the passage, we can know that ___________. A. American men don’t mind if we ask about their ages B. thin Americans don’t mind being asked about their weight C. rich Americans don’t mind when we ask them about their income D. Americans don’t mind being asked a personal question by close friends ( ) 54. It can be inferred from the passage that ___________. A. many Americans use artificial things to appear more beautiful B. using artificial things can make others think they are very rich C. Americans think that colored contact lens are very natural D. asking whether an American girl’s hair is real is suggested ( ) 55. What does the underlined phrase “watch your steps” probably mean in the passage? A. Walk slowly. B. Take care. C. Take it easy. D. Pay attention to your feet. 第二节：信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

Before he left, he said to his son, "if anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of tea." "OK, Dad," said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn't remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said, "Where is your father?" The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. He could not find it. He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, "No more."The man was very surprised. He asked, "No more? I met your father last week. When did it happen?""Burnt yesterday evening."56. Mr Brown told his son that _____.A. he would be away from home for four daysB. he would be back in seven daysC. he would be back in a monthD. he liked a cup of tea57. Mr Brown wrote the words down on ________.A. the wallB. the doorC. a piece of paperD. his son's pocket58. A man came to visit the boy's father on ________.A. the second dayB. the third dayC. the fourth dayD. the fifth day59. The man was very surprised because _________.A. he thought the child's father was deadB. the child didn't ask him to sit downC. the child gave him a cup of teaD. he couldn't find that piece of paper60. What was burnt? ___________.A. The piece of paperB. Mr SmithC. The visitorD. The boyPassage BOne of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking. People do this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary to do this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.1. "What's the matter？" "I went to a party last night, so I…"2. "I feel so tired these days."" I think y ou'd better…"3."Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…"You can see from the above three examples that the context (上下文) helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So "guessing "is very important in understanding English, especially spoken English.61.This passage tells us mainly about _________.A. the importance of "guessing " in learning a foreign languageB. how to guess what one is going to talk aboutC. some examples of right guessingD. how important it is to guess all the time62.From the context, we can see maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 1 is _________.A. "… so I didn't have a good time."B. "…so I went to bed very late."C. "…. so I felt unhappy."D. "… so I got up very early."63. Maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 2 is ________.A. "I think you'd better have a good rest and take good care of yourself."B. "I think you'd better have something to drink."C. "I think you'd better get some help from your friends."D. "I think you'd better be more careful."64. Maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 3 is ______.A. "… she is one of the most famous film stars."B. "…she is one of the most beautiful women."C. "… she is one of the most famous speakers."D. " .. she is one of the most talkative women."65. From the passage we can infer (推断) that guessing is _______in learning a foreign language.A. the only wayB. more important in spoken English than in written EnglishC. more important than any other wayD. more important in written English than in spoken EnglishPassage CNow satellites are helping to forecast（预报）the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead.66. Satellites travel _____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space67. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because __________.A. the weather satellites can do it easilyB. clouds form thereC. the weather forms thereD. the pictures can forecast the weather68. Meteorologists forecast the weather __________.A. when they have received satellite picturesB. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier onesC. before they received satellite picturesD. during they study satellite pictures69. Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for ________.A. one dayB. two daysC. five daysD. seven days or even longer70. The main idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in _________.A. taking pictures of the atmosphereB. receiving pictures of the atmosphereC. doing other work in many waysD. weather forecastingPart IV Writing(45marks)Section A(10marks)Directions: read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.It is not surprising to hear that more and more people are trying to lose weight by using weight-loss pills. It is becoming a very popular way to deal with weight because then all that people need to do is simply take the pill and carry on with their normal eating habits all the while losing weight.As with the seemingly endless supply of weight-loss programs, there is a wide range of weight-loss pills that you can choose from and they go from prescription drugs(处方药) to natural products that are supposed to have same effect but offer a safer choice.Weight-loss pills can be highly effective when the appropriate drug is chosen for the patient and many people have quiet obvious results over a relatively short period of time once they have found a solution that has worked for them.Still, you need to be aware that these natural weight-loss pills can have side effects and some serious reactions can be extremely dangerous to your health.No matter what type of pills or products you are taking to lose weight, you really should discuss everything with your doctor first to ensure that your health won’t be in danger and in particular if you have any other health problems that need to be discussed.With prescription drugs you are going to have to consult your doctor, so it would be a wise decision to talk about all the alternatives before deciding what the best for you is.On the other hand there have been many people who have had obvious problems with weight-loss pills they have been using, whether it is prescription drugs or natural products. In some cases, these substances have no effect on the user.It certainly isn’t worth endangering your life to lose weight as weight loss should actually be about improving you life.Section B(10marks) (2,4,4)DIRECTIONS: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.The more money a married woman earns, the less housework she will do regardless of how much her spouse earns, according to a new study.A researcher at the University of Massachusetts Amherst found that big paychecks (薪水) equal less cooking and cleaning in a study of 918 women in double-income families. Married women who made $40,000 or more a year spent nearly one hour less on housework per day than women who earned $10,000 or less, according to the findings based on data (数据) from the National Survey of Families and Households.“Up to this point, people have thought that the important thing was how much money a woman makes compared to her husband, but the only thing that matters is how much money she earns,” Sanjiv Gupta, the author of the study, said in an interview.The study, which is published in the Journal of Marriage and Family, showed that for every $7,500 in annual income that a married woman earned, she performed one hour less of housework each week.Gupta confirmed the connection between money, housework and spousal relationships in a separate study using data on nearly 2,000 couples in the United States and Europe.The average earnings of American women increased by $6,200 between 1965 and1995,according to the U.S.Census Bureau (人口普查局).During that time, the amount of time married women spent on weekly chores fell by 14.6 hours.Since the husband’s earnings had no effect on the amount of housework a woman does,thefinding suggests that women are using their own money to reduce their housework by doing things such as ordering food from restaurants instead of cooking,and hiring cleaners instead of doing the cleaning themselves,Gupta said.81.Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “spouse”.(回答词数不超过1个)82.How do high income women reduce the amount of housework they do?(回答词数不超过8个)83.What is the main idea of the passage?
