B．V ery shocked.C．Indifferent. D．V ery happy.3．Why is the village Y axi awarded the title of “slow city” ?A．Because it is full of excitement and activities of nightlife.B．Because the residents at Y axi enjoy a leisure life.C．Because it is very rich and has a lot of attractions.D．Because foreign people prefer small towns.4．It can be inferred from the passage that________.A．young people at Y axi enjoy their life very muchB．China is more and more popular with foreign peopleC．the first McDonald’s in Europe was opened in SpainD．the lifestyle of “slow city” will be good to environment and peopleB(2012·合肥市高中质量检测)Today our life and work rarely feel lightor pleasant.Instead，the whole experience of being alive begins to melt intohuge responsibility.It becomes the standard greeting everywhere：I am sobusy.We say this to one another with no small degree of pride.The busier we are，the more important we seem to ourselves and，we imagine，to others.To be unavailable to our friends and family，to be unable to find time for the sunset，to speed through our responsibilities without time for a single mindful breath－this has become the model of a successful life.Because we do not rest，we lose our way.We lose the nourishment (营养) that gives us help.We miss the quiet that gives us wisdom.Poisoned by the belief that good things come only through tireless effort，we never truly rest.This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young.How did we get so terribly rushed in a world filled with work and responsibility，yet somehow lack of joy and delight?We have forgotten the Sabbath (安息日)．Sabbath is the time to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good－time to light candles，sing songs，tell stories，bless our children and loved ones，give thanks，share meals，nap (小睡) and walk.It is time to be nourished and refreshed as we let our work，our chores and our important projects lie fallow，trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world when we are at rest.Sabbath is more than the absence of work.Many of us，in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our many responsibilities，feel terribly guilty when we take time to rest.But the Sabbath has proven its wisdom over the ages.Many of us still recall when，not long ago，shops and offices were closed on Sundays.Those quiet Sunday afternoons remained in our cultural memory.5．Nowadays，when we greet people by saying，“I am so busy”，we feel________.A．sorry B．proudC．unhappy D．responsible6．If a person lives a successful life，he is expected________.A．to be always available to his family and friendsB．to be able to enjoy a leisure holidayC．to be occupied with too many obligationsD．to become a model for everyone else7．According to the author，we should do the following EXCEPT________.A．showing interest in beautiful thingsB．having time to get refreshedC．putting away obligations and resting when necessaryD．believing that good things come only through tireless effort8．We should have Sabbath because________.A．it helps us get pleasure in our lifeB．we cannot forget we are ChristiansC．people don’t have to work that dayD．it is embedded in our cultural memoryⅢ.情景对话W：Good morning.Is that 8089932?M：___ 1___W：This is Maria Smith calling from the Packaging Company.____ 2____M：Speaking.W：We’ve got your job application and I’m calling to arrange an interview with you.M：____ 3____When will it be?W：___ 4___Would that be all right?M：___ 5___W：So we look forward to seeing you then.Bye bye.M：Bye.Thanks for calling.A．That’s good.B．How about Monday morning at 10∶00?C．It suits me fine.D．Could I speak to Mr.Richard Baylor?E．Y es?F．Who are you?G．It doesn’t matter.Unit 3T ravel journalⅠ.单项填空1．【解析】选A。

& Elite Party Rentals into a well-developedwedding planning and rental operation.Statistics show that these kinds ofmommy-owned businesses are on the rise.Many women say they can’t findwork that

routine，”says Gemma Moore，a busy mother of two who owns and operates MG Moore Designs，a design company specializing in website，photography and print media，“Finding a business that you can build in the evenings will allow you to spend time with your children during the day and continue your business after they go to school.”Ninety-two percent of female small business owners say that mobile equipment and computer software can help a mom entrepreneur make her own hours and work whenever she is most productive.In fact，ninety-five percent agree that small business owners need to

that a person who never settlesdown in one place will not be successful.Another is that someone who is alwaysmoving，with no roots in one place，avoids responsibilities.This proverb was said to be first used in the 1500s.But in the 1960s，the expression “rolling stone” became famous in the world of rock-and-roll music.It became the name of a song，a rock group and a magazine.Experts say it all started with a song by the American singer and guitarist Muddy Waters.He was one of the country’s top blues musicians until his death in 1983.His music influenced singers like Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan.In 1950，Muddy Waters recorded a song called “Rolling Stone”．A British rock group is said to have taken its name from Muddy Waters’song.The Rolling Stones performed for the first time in 1962.The group’s members called themselves “the world’s greatest rock-and-roll band”．In 1965，Bob Dylan released his song “Like a Rolling Stone”．It is one of his best known and most influential works.It is an angry song about a woman who was once rich and successful.But now she is on her own，“with no direction home，like a complete unknown，like a rolling stone”．In 1967，a young man named Jann Wenner started a magazine and he named it “Rolling Stone”．The magazine reported on rock music and the popular culture that the music created.By 197l，“Rolling Stone” had become the leading rock music and counterculture publication.It is still popular today.5．Which person can be described as a rolling stone according to the proverb?A．A person who always changes his jobs.B．A person who has a successful career.C．A

inventions in India’s ruralvillages.Since 1988，Gupta has been traveling across India in search ofinventions that are changing the lives of the country’s rural poor.Thenetwork now says 13,000 inventions，from a foot-pedal operated washingmachine to a mobile-phone activated irrigation pump that saves farmers thetime and difficulty of manually turning on/off water in their fields.More recently，Gupta worked with the Indian government to set up the National Innovation Foundation，which helps formalizes their inventions and their intellectual property rights and is finally helping to change India’s rural masses into self-sustaining industrialists.In the process，the Honeybee Network is drawing attention to industrialists like Mohammad Saidullah，who developed a simple device out of necessity that now has the power to save thousands of lives.Saidullah arrived at the idea for a floating bicycle during one particularly terrible flood season in his home state of Bihar，India.Like many in his town，Saidullah used a bicycle to get around and a boat to cross a river to get basic flood provisions in a nearby city.He thought if only he could make his bicycle float on water，he could save the cost of hiring a boat to cross the river and catching a bus once he arrived on the other side.It took Saidullah three days and just over $130 dollars to create his amphibious bicycle.He named it the NOOR Bicycle (after his wife)，and claims he can now assemble a model for half that much.Such a simple invention with the power to ameliorate the lives of so many should be a winner for our

the No.7 on The Ne w York Times’ bestseller list published on Nov.28.On Friday afternoon it was No.4 on the best-seller list.It is a hit across the country，landing on best-seller lists and going back to press six times，for a total of 275,000 so far.The publisher cannot print copies quickly enough，leaving some bookstores and online retailers (零售商) hopeless without copies just as the holiday shopping season begins.“It’s frustrating，” said Rona，the owner of the BookMark.“In this age of instant books，why does it take so long to reprint it？” Kris，an owner of a bookstore said：“It was sold right out.There’s a lasting love affair with Mark Twain, especially around here.Anybody within a stone’s throw of the Mississippi River has a Twain attachment.” Mr.Ingram said：“I’m sure every bookseller in the world is saying，‘I_should_have_been_sharper.I should have thought this one through more carefully.’” Earlier this week，the book was sold out at a handful of bookstores.Some booksellers said they had been told，much to their disappointment，that they would not receive reorders until mid-December or even January.Many booksellers said the book has a holiday-gift quality，which has a unique story behind its publication.Twain ordered that the book be published a century after his death.It is more political than his previous works，being frank，funny，angry and full of memories from his childhood.It’s literary，but not too tough to read.The content，itself，is very readable.It can be easily picked up and read without the worry of continuity (连贯性)．“I’ve only had a chance to look at it，but from what I did see，it looked like the kind of book you would never finish，and you would never even think of reading from the beginning to the end，”said Mr.Ingram of Prairie Lights.“It’s the kind of book you would read a little bit every day of your life.”“He was a wonderful showman.And he was cool.Let’s face it.That’s part of it.”Mr.Kettmann said.“We feel America’s kind of excited about a literary icon，”said Ms.Dahne.“There’s something very sweet about the fact that people are interested in a 736-page scholarly book about Mark Twain.”1．We can find this article in

is well receivedC．many booksellers are crazy about Mark TwainD．the business of American bookstores is goodB(2012·山西省三市联考)The iPhone，the iPad，the iPod：each ofApple’s products sounds cool and has become a fad (一时的风尚)．Applehas cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter “i”－and many otherbrands are following suit.The BBC’s iPlayer－which allows Web users towatch TV programs on the Internet－adopted the title in 2008.A lovely bear－popular in the US and UK－that plays music and video is called“iTeddy”．A slimmed-down version of London’s Independent newspaperwas launched last week under the name “i”．In general，single-letter prefixes (前缀) have been popular since the 1990s，when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce first came into use.Most “i”products are targeted at young people and considering the major readers of Independent’s“i”，it’s no surprise that they’ve selected this fashionable name.But it’s hard to see what’s so special about the letter “i”．Why not use “a”，“b”，or “c” instead? According to Tony Thorne，head of the Language Center at King’s College，London，“i” works because its meaning has become ambiguous.When Apple uses “i”，no one knows whether it means Internet，information，individual or interactive，Thorne told BBC Magazines.“Even when Apple created the iPod，it seems it didn’t have one clear definition，” he says.“However，thanks to Apple，the term is now associated with portability (轻便) ，” adds Thorne.Clearly the letter “i”also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual.Each person believes they have their own needs，and we love personalized products for this reason.Along with “Google” and “blog”，readers of BBC Magazines voted “i” as one of the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade.But as history shows，people grow tired of fads.From the 1900s to 1990s，products with “2000” in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modern.However，as we entered the new century，the trend inevitably disappeared.5．We can infer that the Independent’s“i” is aimed at________.A．young readers B．old readersC．fashionable women D．engineers6．The underlined word “ambiguous” means “________”．A．popular B．uncertainC．definite D．unique7．Nowadays，the “i” term often reminds people of the products which are________.A．portableB．environmentally friendlyC．advancedD．recyclable8．The writer suggests that________.A．“i” products are often of a high qualityB．the popularity of “i” products may not last longC．the letter “b” replaces letter “i” to name the productsD．iTeddy is a live bearⅢ.短文改错Never shall I forget the first English lesson giving by Miss Liu.One Monday morning，when she entered the classroom，we found out that she was a young and beautiful lady.Then she introduced her and said they shoul dn’t call her Teacher Liu but Miss ter，she asked us to go to the blackboard and said something about ourselves with English in turn.When it was my turn，I felt too shy that I didn’t dare to say anything before the class.She went up to me and said kind，“Don’t be afraid.I believe you can do well.” At last，I went to the blackboard.She praised me for that I had done.Unit 5Canada—“The True North”Ⅰ.单项填空1．【解析】选D。

predictearthquakes have gotten some new helpers recently－animals.That’s right，animals.Scientists have begun to understand what farmershave known for thousands of years.Animals often seem to know in advancethat an earthquake is coming，and they show their fear by acting in strange ways.Before a Chinese quake in 1975，snakes awoke from their winter sleep early only to freeze to death in the cold air.Cows broke their halters (缰绳) and tried to escape.Chickens refused to enter their cage.All of this unusual behavior，as well as physical changes in the earth，warned Chinese scientists of the coming quake.They moved people away from the danger zone and saved thousands of lives.One task for scientists today is to learn exactly which types of animal behavior predict quakes.It’s not an easy job.First of all，not every animal reacts to the danger of an earthquake.Just before a California quake in 1977，for example，an Arabian horse became very nervous and tried to break out of his enclosure (围栏)．The Australian horse next to him，however，remained perfectly calm.It’s also difficult at times to tell the difference between normal animal restlessness and “earthquake nerves”．A zoo keeper once called earthquake researchers，saying that his cougar had been acting strangely.It turned out that the cat had an upset stomach.A second task for scientists is to find out exactly what kind of warnings the animals receive.They know that animals sense far more of the world than humans do.Many animals can see，hear，and smell things that people do not even notice.Some can sense tiny changes in air pressure，gravity，or the magnetism of the earth.This extra sense probably helps animals predict quakes.A good example of this occurred with a group of dogs.They were shut in an area that was being shaken by a series of tiny earthquakes.(Several small quakes often come before or after a large one.) Before each quake a low booming sound was heard.Each boom caused the dogs to bark wildly.Then the dogs began to bark during a silent period.A scientist who was recording quakes looked at his machine.It was acting as though there were a loud noise too.The scientist realized that the dogs had reacted to a booming noise.They also sensed the tiny quakes that followed it.The machine recorded both，though humans felt and heard nothing.In this case there was a machine to monitor what the dogs were sensing.Many times，however，our machines record nothing extraordinary，even though animals know a quake is coming.The animals might be sensing something we measure but do not recognize as a warning.Discovering what animals sense，and learning how they know it is a danger signal，is a job for future scientists.1．Through the passage the writer hopes to explore________.A．why animals send a danger signal before an earthquakeB．how animals know when an earthquake is comingC．why animals not humans have a good sense of dangerD．how much animals know about an earthquake2．During an earthquake in China in 1975，________.A．chickens refused to go out of their cageB．snakes were frozen to death in their cavesC．snakes awoke from their winter sleep earlierD．cows broke their halters and escaped from their sheds3．Which of the following is one of earthquake nerves according to the passage?A．An Arabian horse tried to escape from his enclosure.B．A cougar had an upset stomach unexpectedly.C．An Australian horse was perfectly calm.D．A cat acted very strangely in a zoo.4．The scientists did an experiment with a group of dogs to________.A．find out that the machine could record unusual happeningsB．compare the reactions of animals and those of humansC．prove that animals could sense more than humansD．find out what exact warnings animals sendUnit 4EarthquakesⅠ.单项填空1．【解析】选D。

B．Tolerant.C．Vague. D．Negative.3．What does the underlined word “stark〞 in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Unfair. B．Illegal.C．Dull. D．Violent.4．What can be inferred from the passage?A．Men’s individuality is over controlled.B．People have damaged nature too much.C．Men’s independence is partially limited.D．People show concern for nuclear families.Ⅳ.信息匹配A.Not only gives us advice but is free.B.We may control over what we eat.C.A new website gives us nutritional analysis.D.Eating properly does good to our health.E.We have to choose a new and healthy website.F.The recommendations are based on daily food.1.While we may not have any control over our body shapes and inherited genes (遗传)，we are lucky enough to have control over what we choose to eat.And it is this choice that can make an unbelievable difference to our health and well being (＝happiness)，you and your family can make impressive improvement to your health，weight and energy levels.What you choose to eat can also reduce the risk of many diseases that may cause early death or disability，such as heart disease，cancer and diabetes (糖尿病)．，a new website designed to help you work out exactly where your food choices are taking you.For instance，some food and vegetables are fast becoming known as one of the most popular defenses against cancer.But are you consuming enough of them and from the best sources?
