Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside、I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking、Without fail one would declare,”But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.”The student would tell something wildly imaginative、Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads、“That’s pretty creative、Who does that for you?”“Nobody、I do it.”“Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”5、The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?A、know more about the studentsB、make the lessons more excitingC、raise the students’ interest in artD、teach the students about toy design6、What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A、He liked to help his teacher、B、He preferred to study alone、C、He was active in class、D、He was imaginative.7、What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A、Mistake、B、Drawback、C、Difficulty、D、Burden.8、Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?A、To help them to see their creativity、B、To find out about their sleeping habits、C、To help them to improve their memory、D、To find out about their ways of thinking.CReading can be a social activity、Think of the people who belong to book groups、They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them、Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group. Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share、BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book、Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The tw o things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read、BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops、Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it、E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found、Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf athome. BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟)、The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.9、Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A、To explain what they are.B、To introduce BookCrossing.C、To stress the importance of reading、D、To encourage readers to share their ideas.10、What does the underlined word “it” in Par agraph 2refer to?A.The book、B.An adventure、C.A public place、D.The identification number.11、What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A、Meet other readers to discuss it、B、Keep it safe in his bookcase、C、Pass it on to another reader、D、Mail it back to its owner.12、What is the best title for the text?A、Online Reading: A Virtual TourB、Electronic Books: A new TrendC、A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD、A Website Links People through BooksDA new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.Frank Hurley’s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week、In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival、Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea、From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent、The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain RobertFalcon Scott had done、Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort、Scott’s last journey, completed as be lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds、Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography、Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.13、What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?A、They were made last weekB、They showed undersea sceneriesC、They were found by a cameramanD、They recorded a disastrous adventure14、Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?A、Frank HurleyB、Ernest ShackletonC、Robert Falcon ScottD、Caroline Alexander15、What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?A、Artistic creationB、Scientific researchC、Money makingD、Treasure hunting第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A、B、C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark thecorresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage 1Fast-food restaurants are very popular in the United States. They are popular because the service is fast and the prices are low. Of all the fast-food restaurants, McDonald’s is probably the most famous and the most popular.McDonald’s is popular for several reasons. Customers can get the same food at any McDonald’s in any state or country. The employees are helpful and polite, and the tables and floors are clean. Ray Kroc, past president of McDonald’s, believed that helpful employees, a clean restaurant, and good food were necessary.And McDonald’s customers do like the food. They like the sandwiches, the ice-cream, and the French fries, slices of potato cooked in oil. Of all the items on McDonald’s menu, the French fries are probably the most popular. They are good because of their special preparation.Richard and Maurice McDonald, the original owners of McDonald’s, had their own special preparation of French fries. In 1948, they opened their first self-service restaurant in San Bernardino, California. People would come from everywhere to buy their French fries and hamburgers. Workers would buy their lunches at McDonald’s because the hamburgers and French fries tasted better than their lunches from home.By 1960, the McDonald brothers owned 228 self-service restaurants. Then, in 1960, Ray Kroc, a 56-year-old salesman, bought the name and most of the restaurants for $ 2.7 million.He then began to build new restaurants, and, by 1982, he owned about 7063. Of those restaurants, about 1283 were in other countries: Japan, Germany, England, and Australia. That same year, McDonald’s Corporation earned about $ 7 billion.McDonald’s is a big business, but it is not too big or too rich to help ordinary people. For example, owners of restaurants take part in special community programs for children or senior citizens. Other owners have festivals to get money for medical research.The corporation owns special houses near children’s hospitals. These Ronald McDonald houses are for sick children and their parents. Sometimes a child has to stay at a hospital for several weeks or months. Then the child’s parents can stay at a Ronald McDonald house. Staying at these houses is cheaper than staying at hotels, and the atmosphere is friendlier and more homelike.People don’t go to McDonald’s because of community programs or Ronald McDonald houses. They go because of the food, the fast service, and the low prices. They are like David Green. He says, “McDonald’s is my favorite place to eat in the whole world. I wouldn’t move to any town that didn’t have one.”Because McDonald’s is a good business, thousands of people apply for restaurant ownership each year. McDonald’s, however, chooses only 10 percent of the applicants. Every year, many business people, doctors, or lawyers leave their jobs to become owners. Guy Roderick, a lawyer, gave up his law practice, moved to Florida, and opened 4 restaurants. He works every day of the week, but he earns “a million dollars in happiness”.It is not easy to become the owner of a McDonald’s restaurant. New applicants must first observe and then work in a McDonald’s restaurant for about 500 hours. Then they spend 10 days at Hamburger University. There they learn everything about owning a restaurant. They learn how to clean a stove, how much food to buy, and how to balance the books. They graduate with a major in “hamburgerology” and a minor in “French fries”.The applicant’s name then goes to the bottom of a list. When each name gets to the top of the list, the applicant gets a restaurant. Applicants cannot choose a city or town, but they can accept or reject a location.After the new owner accepts a location, he or she chooses the basic design of the restaurant. Most McDonald’s look almost the same on the outside, but actually there are about 16 different basic designs. Then the owner designs the inside of the restaurant. The design may have a Western, a sports, or a historical theme. Each design, however, will suit each owner’s taste.47. One of the reasons why McDonald’s is popular is that _________.A) the owners are friendlyB) it is convenient to eat thereC) the employees are helpfulD) the atmosphere is homelike48. French fries are slices of potato _________.A) cooked quickly2008～2009 学年第二学期课程名称大学英语2级考试班级2008级命题教师教研室主任审批签名杨勇学号学生姓名教学班号考试日期2009－7－6 成绩B) cooked by a FrenchmanC) cooked speciallyD) cooked in oil49. McDonald’s developed very quickly under the management of ____.A) Ray KrocB) the McDonald brothersC) David GreenD) Guy Roderick50. “To balance the books” (Para. 11) means “_________”.A) to put the books where they belongB) to buy the books necessary for running a fast-food restaurantC) to ensure the amount of money spent does not exceed the amount receivedD) to keep an account of the money that is receivedPassage 2I had been working at a café called Pacific Desserts for two years. One day the kitchen manager left his job. I had worked there the longest. I was given the kitchen manager’s work, but not the title or the pay.High school kids waited tables at night there. They often visited in the morning before the place was open. They came for free coffee. I had been making myself breakfast before the manager got there and I decided to expand. For the last three months of school, I made fried eggs and potato salad using the restaurant’s eggs, cheese, milk, vegetables, potatoes, and spices. We started a morning coffee club, and charged $1 per plate. Soon the high school students started to bring their friends. One of them even made a signboard in his carpentry class that read “Joe’s Underground Café”. I usually made about $ 8 extra per day. This was the same as an increase in my pay. I was also spending an hour of the company’s time for my own profit.Bicycle Messenger—KennyBeing a bike messenger in Seattle is hard, but our job was easy. We had to work extremely hard, but at least we got paid by the hour.The company always let us wear shorts, but we had to wear the company T-shirts. We cut off the sleeves to stay cool. Then, the company wanted to give a better impression of itself because we delivered to big businesses. They made us wear long pants and shirts made of heavy material. This was crazy! Try riding your bicycle fast for ten miles up hills, really big hills, with heavy packages while you’re wearing long pants!All of the messengers agreed we could not continue like that. We decided that we wouldn’t wash our clothes at all. We wore the same clothes every day. You can imagine what it was like when we were in an elevator. Our clothes smelled terrible and our bodies also smelled bad. Within a month, the company received many complaints. They let us wear shorts again.51. Joe took over the work of the kitchen manager _________.A) but was not given the title of “kitchen manager”B) and got an increase in his payC) because he had worked there for many yearsD) as he was the only one there who knew how to do the work well52. When Joe said “I decided to expand”, he meant that _________.A) he decided to start his own businessB) he decided to make money by making breakfast for the other studentsC) he decided to make himself breakfast using the café’s eggsD) he decided to treat his schoolmates to free coffee53. According to the passage, Joe’s “coffee club”_________.A) attracted a lot of different customersB) was an underground businessC) was approved by the bossD) made a lot of money54. The bike messengers felt that _________.A) it was a crazy idea to make them wear long pantsB) it was cool to wear the company T-shirtsC) it was all right to wear shirts of heavy material, but not long pantsD) it would give their customers a good impression to wear long pants55. The company finally let the bike messengers wear shorts again after _________.A) it received customers’ complaints that the boys should not wear long pantsB) the boys insisted on not washing their clothesC) people in elevators said the boys looked dirty in unwashed clothesD) the boys protested for a monthPassage 3At times, your pet may appear to be deep in thought. But don’t let that pose fool you. Animals often do things that may make you think they’re thinking.Thinking about thinking is tricky, because thinking isn’t something you can see. It goes on inside the brain. We know when we’re doing it. But who can tell if an animal is thinking? It’s not easy.For example, check out the animal actions below. Do they show that the animals are thinking —or not thinking? What do you think?A bird builds a nest that’s just right for its eggs and babies.An octopus uses its arms to open a jar with food inside.A lion sneaks around behind its prey and then chases it toward another lion that’s hiding and waiting.What Is Thinking?It may be easier to first explain what thinking isn’t. For example, it isn’t needed for things animals do automatically —like when a beaver dams a stream with sticks, mud, and grasses.2008～2009 学年第二学期课程名称大学英语2级考试班级2008级命题教师教研室主任审批签名杨勇学号学生姓名教学班号考试日期2009－7－6 成绩The beaver is making a pond, but it didn’t learn how to do that. It doesn’t think about doing it, either. Some animals just do what they do —kind of like robots —and they do it the same way every time. Scientists call this kind of behavior instinct.But what about when an animal does learn to do something? Is that thinking? For example, you can teach a dog to give you its paw and “shake hands”.But most scientists don’t believe that the dog is thinking when it learns such tricks.Thinking TestsFor a long time, scientists didn’t study animal thinking. Most of them didn’t believe that animals could think. They thought humans were the only thinking animals.Now more scientists are studying this subject. But it’s very hard to prove things that no one can see or measure. So some scientists decided to take a look at brains.Is bigger better? No. Cow brains are bigger than dog brains, but that doesn’t make cows smarter than dogs. And squirrels have some of the biggest brains of all for their body size. But squirrels aren’t even close to being the smartest animals in the world. So the size of a brain may give some clues about brain power, but it doesn’t prove anything.Other scientists study thinking by watching how animals solve problems. They watch animals in the wild. Or they set up thinking tests in a lab.For example, a scientist might put some food just out of an animal’s reach. One kind of animal may grab a stick and use it to slide the food over. Another kind might not be able to figure out a way to get the food. Some scientists think animals that have lots of problems to solve must be smarter than animals with simple lives.Scientists also study certain kinds of behavior for clues about thinking. They watch for three things: whether animals use tools, how they act with each other, and how they communicate.Animal TalkMany animals communicate, or “talk”—with sounds, odors, colors, body language, and other signals. Communication helps animals get along with each other and survive.For example, honeybees do a dance in the hive that “tells” other bees where to find food. And birds sing songs that say, “This is my place.” Most scientists would say that this kind of “talking” is automatic and doesn’t take any thinking.Other animals, such as wolves and whales, use many different sounds and signals. Are these animals able to tell each other what’s on their minds —the same way that people do with language? Do they think about what they’re “saying”? Some scientists think so, but most agree that there’s no way to tell for sure.We know that human language takes thinking. So some scientists have tried to see what animals can do with our language. For example, a few apes have been taught sign language. The scientists who work with them say the apes seem to understand how the words work together. The apes sometimes even make up their own sentences. These could be clues that the animals are thinking.And then there’s Alex. Alex is an African gray parrot. Like any parrot, he can copy the human voice. But this is one parrot that just might know what he’s talking about!Alex seems to understand and use human words in the correct way —not just copy them. That makes some people feel that Alex —and the apes that use sign language —must be thinking animals.56. In what way are some animals like robots?A) They behave mechanically.B) They do what they do automatically.C) They copy the voices of other animals.D) They know what they are doing.57. What have scientists learned from studying the size of animals’ brains?A) The animals with the smallest brains are always the smartest.B) The animals with the largest brains are always the smartest.C) The animals with the smallest brains are usually the smartest.D) The animals with the largest brains are not always the smartest.58. Some people believe that _________.A) a dog is thinking when it learns to “shake hands”B) a beaver is thinking when it dams a stream with sticks and mudC) a honeybee is thinking when it does a dance in the hiveD) an ape is thinking when it uses sign language59. What is one type of behavior that scientists watch for as a clue that an animal is thinking?A) How the animal communicates.B) What the animal looks like.C) How well the animal dances.D) What training the animal has received.60. Which of the following sentences would be a main idea in the section called “Animal Talk”?A) Birds sing songs that say “This is my place.”B) Many animals communicate with signals like sounds, odors,colors, etc.C) Like any parrot, Alex can copy the sounds of the human voice.D) Wolves and whales are able to tell each other what’s on their minds.Section B （Skimming and Scanning)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions.For questions 61-67, markY (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.For questions 68-70, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Culture ShockThe term, culture shock, was introduced for the first time in 1958 to describe the anxiety produced when a2008～2009 学年第二学期课程名称大学英语2级考试班级2008级命题教师教研室主任审批签名杨勇学号学生姓名教学班号考试日期2009－7－6 成绩person moves to a completely new environment. This term expresses the lack of direction, the feeling of not knowing what to do or how to do things in a new environment, and not knowing what is appropriate or inappropriate. The feeling of culture shock generally sets in after the first few weeks of coming to a new place.We can describe culture shock as the physical and emotional discomfort one suffers when coming to live in another country or a place different from the place of origin. Often, the way that we lived before is not accepted as or considered as normal in the new place. Everything is different, for example, not speaking the language, not knowing how to use banking machines, not knowing how to use the telephone and so forth. Because your views may clash with the different beliefs, norms, values, and traditions that exist in a new place, you may have difficulty in adjusting to a new culture and to those parts of the culture not familiar to you. This is culture shock. Evidently, at least four essential stages of culture shock adjustment occur.The first stage is called “the honeymoon”. In this stage, you feel excitement about living in a different place, and everything seems to be marvelous. You like everything, and everybody seems to be so nice to you. Also, the amusement of life in a new culture seems as though it will have no ending.Eventually, however, the second stage of culture shock appears. This is the “hostility stage”. You begin to notice that not everything is as good as you had originally thought it was. You become tired of many things about the new culture. Moreover, people don’t treat you like a guest anymore, everything that seemed to be so wonderful at first is now awful, and everything makes you feel distressed and tired.Usually at this point in your adjustment to a new culture, you devise some defense mechanisms to help you cope and to protect yourself against the effects of culture shock. One type of coping mechanism is called “repression”. This happens when you pretend that everything is acceptable and that nothing bothers you. Another type of defense mechanism is called “regression”. This occurs when you start to act as if you were younger than you actually are; you act like a child. You forget everything, and sometimes you become careless and irresponsible. The third kind of defense mechanism is called “isolation”. You would rather be home alone, and you don’t want to communicate with anybody. With isolation, you try to avoid the effects of culture shock, or at least that’s what you think. Isolation is one of the worst coping mechanisms you can use because it separates you from those things that could really help you. The last type of defense mechanism it called “rejection”. With this coping mechanism, you think you don’t need anybody. You feel you are coping fine alone, so you don’t try to ask for help.The defense mechanisms you utilize in the hostility stage are not helpful. If you only occasionally use one of these coping mechanisms to help yourself survive, that is acceptable. You must be cautious, however. These mechanisms can really hurt you because they prevent you from making necessary adjustments to the new culture.After you deal with hostile feelings, recognition of the temporary nature of culture shock begins. Then you come to the third stage called “recovery”. In this stage, you start feeling more positive, and you try to develop comprehension of everything you don’t understand. The whole situation starts to become more favorable; you recover from the symptoms of the first two stages, and you adjust yourself to the new norms, values, and even beliefs and traditions of the new country. You begin to see that even though the distinctions of the culture are different from your own, it has elements that you can learn to appreciate.The last stage of culture shock is called “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good because you have learned enough to understand the new culture. The things that initially made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand. This acquisition of understanding alleviates much of the stress. Now you feel comfortable; you have adjusted to the new culture.These stages are present at different times and each person has their own way of reacting in the stages of culture shock. As a consequence, some stages will be longer and more difficult than others. Many factors contribute to the duration and effects of culture shock. For example, the individual’s state of mental health, type of personality, previous experiences, socio-economic conditions, familiarity with the language, family and/or social support systems, and level of education.Evidently, culture shock is something you cannot avoid when living in a foreign country. It does not seem like a very helpful experience when you are going through its four stages. However, when you have completely adjusted to a new culture you can more fully enjoy it. You learn how to interact with other people, and you learn a considerable amount about life in a culture that is not your own. Furthermore, learning about other cultures and how to adjust to the shock of living in them helps you learn more about yourself.Culture shock is a condition of confusion and anxiety affecting a person suddenly exposed to an alien culture. The excitement of life in a new place does not belong to culture shock.61Culture shock is a condition of confusion and anxiety affecting a person suddenly exposed to an alien culture. 62The excitement of life in a new place does not belong to culture shock.63In the second stage, the newcomer holds a negative attitude towards everything in the new culture.64Regression is the act of thinking or behaving as you did at an earlier time of your life, such as in the childhood.65The passage shows that each stage of culture shock usually lasts two weeks.66In the last stage, you start feeling more positive and try to develop comprehension of the new things.67 Many factors contribute to the effects of culture shock such as type of personality, previous experience, sex difference and level of education.68The defense mechanisms in the hostility stage usually involve _______________.69According to the passage, the duration and effects of culture shock are different _______________.a)70 Culture shock is inevitable but when you have completely adapted yourself to it, you can_______________________________.Part IV Cloze (20%)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following two passages.
