I live in Japan, where electronic items are a way of life, so it is no surprise that many students carry these little electronic dictionaries. E-dictionaries may be light and compact(简洁的) than any paper dictionary. __1__ It depends on which one you buy. To me, these are pretty much the limits to their advantages.I think e-dictionaries should be limited in their use in classrooms. __2__E-dictionaries are much more expensive. In Japan, they cost as little as 10,000 yen (US$100)much as 40,000 yen, depending on how many functions you want (or think you want) and depending on how fashionable you are. My trusty Random House paper dictionary is copyrighted at 1995, costing me a mere US$12.95 plus tax.E-dictionaries are more fragile(易碎的). Drop your paper dictionary. Go ahead. Hold it above your head and drop it. __3__E-dictionaries need batteries. Batteries are temperature sensitive. Batteries cost money, too.E-dictionaries have keypads. Typing in the spelling of a word is harder and more time consuming than looking through pages and using the index at the top of each page.__4__ Such little devices beep(嘟嘟声) when you press the buttons, but it is very disturbing to some people in a classroom situation or library.Finally, let's consider making corrections or additions. No dictionary is perfect, paper version or electronic. However, when you find something you'd like to change in the e-dictionary, you can't do anything about it. You can pencil in some notes with the paper type. Similarly, if you learn a word that isn't in the dictionary, a few notes of a pencil make it easy to increase its memory capacity.__5__ And, for those students whose habit is to mark certain words with a highlight pen for ease of future reference, again, the paper dictionary wins out.A．But it is impossible to do so with a keypad model.B．They may even contain more words and expressions.C．Sometimes e-dictionaries trouble you and you really don't know how to get rid of them.D．Now, try this with any lightweight plastic e-dictionary, and you'll be picking up the pieces.E．That huge, heavy paper dictionary that you see in your library looks like a building block in size and weight.F．E-dictionaries have advantages as well as disadvantages.G．Let's take a look at the following reasons.答案：1.B 2.G 3.D 4.C 5.AⅡ.阅读表达阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)。
Self-confidence is the difference between feeling unstoppable and feeling scared out of your brains. Your feeling of yourself has an enormous impact on what others think of you. The more self-confidence you have, the more likely it is that you'll succeed.Although many of the factors affecting self-confidence are beyond your control, there are a number of things you can consciously do to build self-confidence.Although clothes don't make the man, they certainly affect the way he feels about himself. No one is more conscious of your physical appearance than you are. When you don't look good, it changes the way you carry yourself and have an effect on other people. Use this to your advantage by taking care of personal appearance. In most cases, important improvements can be made by bathing and shaving frequently, wearing clean clothes, and knowing the information of the latest styles.One of the easiest ways to tell how a person feels about himself/herself is to examine his/her walk. Is it slow？Tired? Painful? Or is it energetic and purposeful? People with confidence walk quickly. They have places to go, people to see, and important work to do. Even if you aren't in a hurry, you can increase your self-confidence by putting some pep in your step. Walking 25% fasterwill make you look and feel more important.Similarly, the way a person carries himself/herself tells a story. People with lethargic(无精打采的) movements display a lack of self-confidence. They aren't enthusiastic about what they are doing and they don't consider themselves important. By practicing good gesture, you'll automatically feel more confident. Stand up straight, keep your head up, and make eye contact. You'll make a positive impression on others and instantly feel more sure of your ability.1．What is the best title of this passage？(within 5 words)________________________________________________________________________ 2．Why should we build self-confidence? (within 15 words)________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 3．Please explain the underlined word “pep” in the fourth paragraph in English? (within 1 word)________________________________________________________________________ 4．What are the tips on personal physical appearance? (List three points; within 15words) ________________________________________________________________________ 5．Which aspect should you improve to build your self-confidence in your daily life according to the passage? Why? (within 25 words)________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 答案：1．How to Build Confidence/ How to Make Yourself Confident/Tips on keeping confident 2．The more self-confidence you have, the more likely it is you'll succeed.3．energy/power/strength/vigor/speed4．Bathing and shaving frequently; wearing clean clothes; knowing the information of the latest styles; 或(To) bathe and shave frequently; (to)wear clean clothes; (to) know the information of the latest styles5．略(依据短文只要积极向上的答案就可以。

He was glad to think that he was an experienced driver because he heard frequent complaints about the difficulties of passing the driving tests in these modern days. He was told that people tried unsuccessfully to pass the test five, seven, or even thirteen times. He heard of one man who failed the test, did no driving at all for a month, and then passed the next test without difficulty. One woman said that she failed several times in one part of the country. And so she went to another town and immediately passed. Faber was not sure whether to believe such stories or not .But he began to think that the results of the tests were frequently unreasonable.Although it did not affect him in the least, Faber grew angry about all this. He decided to take the test himself. He was an excellent driver; and if he failed, that would prove that his doubts about the examiners were correct. And then he would write to the newspapers to tell everyone what happened.About two months later the following letter appeared in one of the leading papers of England: “Dear sir.During the last twenty-seven years I have driven cars thousands of miles in thirteen different countries in all sorts of weather, and have never had an accident. I have never damaged anything belonging to anybody, and I have never seen the inside of a court of justice. I can take a motor-car engine to pieces and put it together again, and I have given driving lessons to men and women who have later passed the test. No policeman has ever said a sharp word to me. I am not a stupid person, and I have two university degrees.For some time, I have felt doubtful about the driving test held in this country, because their results often seem unreasonable. I therefore decided that the time had come to test the examiners themselves. If anyone can drive a car, I can. I therefore paid the pound and sent my application in. It is unnecessary to tell you that I did not mention my great experience, my unusual ability as a driver, or my wide and exact knowledge of cars.The day of the test came.I very much regret to inform you that I passed.Yours FaithfullyErnest Faber”36．Faber’s driving experience made him .A．surprised B．satisfied C．destroyed D．troubled37．It was said that the driving tests in different parts of the country were .A．not equally difficult B．getting more and more difficultC．intended to discourage women from drivingD．intended to discourage people from owning cars38．When Faber decided to take the test, .A．he knew that he could do it free of charge B．he expected to get a driver’s license C．he wondered if he was an excellent driver D．he thought even he himself might fail the test 39．The letter tells us that the driving test is .A．difficult B．unfair C．reasonable D．unbelievableBAfter the age of sixteen, the number of brain cells begins to decrease at a speed of several milliona year. They simply die off. We know that in certain types of activity, the human brain is at its peak in the early twenties, when it has collected enough information to be able to use the vast number of cells freely in the most effective way. Pure mathematics is one of the fields in which this happens, and we know that Albert Einstein made all his world-shaking discoveries between the age of about 20 and 25, and spent the rest of his life tidying them up and arranging them.But in certain other types of activity (of which being an author is perhaps one) experience is more important than sharpness of brain, and there one usually finds that a person reaches his or her peak much later in life.Besides sharpness of brain and experience, here is another thing that is very important; and that is wisdom; one can have a very quick, inventive brain and plenty of experience, but if one uses these foolishly, one harms both oneself and others. Wisdom does not always come with age－there are plenty of foolish middle－aged people about－but the average person tends to learn wisdom as he gets older, usually by making painful of embarrassing mistakes.Leaning to be wise is basically learning what is not possible; and what is possible but so difficult that it is not worth all the trouble one has to go through go get there. Mostly, it is learning about human nature; how real people behave and react, as against how one would like them to behave and react. One can read and hear lot of idealistic stuff(空想的东西) about how to make the world a better place, which would be found if it was based on an accurate observation of human nature, but which is basically a waste of time because it is not.40．According to the writer, the great discoveries made by Albert Einstein were mainly a result in __________.A．years of hard work B．sharpness of the brainC．rich experience D．his deep understanding of the nature41．Some people achieve success much later in life because ______.A. their work often requires much experienceB．they do not have a chance to show their talentC．they have to learn lessons from failuresD．they fail to realize earlier the importance of hard work42．The importance of wisdom lies in the fact that __________.A．it helps to avoid various mistakesB．it contributes to one’s creativityC．it encourages one to go forward in face of difficultyD．it provides the right direction of efforts43．The writer came to believe that ________.A．it is always a waste of time to make plans about the futureB．it is human nature to make attempts on what looks impossibleC．one should always challenge the impossible to push the society forwardD．one has to use wisdom in deciding what is the best thing to doIV. 书面表达Write a composition in 120-150 words according to the instructions given below.自信(self-confidence) 对一个人来说是非常重要的，但不是每个人都能做到自信。

The songs that are sung or played by instruments are beautiful to all people everywhere.Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class, after class, and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the streets. Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather, politics, and activities of the American people. Most of the radio broadcast is music.Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or a tape which radio stations use in every state. Once the popular singer is heard throughout the country, young people buy his or her tapes. Some of the money from these tapes comes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a national star.There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans. One is called folk music. It tells stories about the common life of Americans. Another is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they were watching. Today, any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music. Serious music for the concert halls is called classical music. Music for instruments is called orchestra music(管弦乐), such as the symphonies(交响乐)of Beethoven. There is opera(歌剧)for singers.

(1) I was so interested in the story I was reading that I did not notice that it was getting dark. When I realized it was too dark for me to read easily, I put the book down and got up to turn on the light. Just then I heard someone crying, “Help! Help!” It seemed to come from the trees at the other end of the yard. (2) I looked out but it was now too dark to see anything clearly. Almost immediately I heard the cry again. It sounded like a child, but I could not imagine what anybody could be doing in our backyard, unless one of the neighborhood children had climbed a tree and had not been able to get down.I decided that I should to out and have a look in the yard, just in case someone was in trouble. I turned on the light and found for myself a flashlight and a stick in the room. I thought they might be useful. Armed with these, I went out into the yard. Once again I heard the cry and this time there was no doubt that it came from the trees at the far end of the yard. “Who's there?” I called out as I walked across the yard towards the trees. But there was no answer. With the help of my flashlight, I searched all over that end of the yard, including the branches of the tree. There was no sign of anybody or anything. I came to the conclusion that my imagination was playing tricks on me, probably because of the story I was reading about strange creatures on another planet.Feeling rather foolish about hunting around in my own backyard with a baseball bat, I went back into the house and put the bat and the flashlight away. I had just sat down to read my book again when I was frightened by the cry of “Help! Help!” from right behind me. I dropped my book and jumped up.

Over 450 people came to the event.There were tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park. Several former teachers were on hand to tell stories about the old days. Ms. Mabel Yates, the English teacher for over fifty years, was wheeled to the Park.Some eyes rolled and there were a few low groans（嘟囔声）when Ms. Yates was about to speak. Many started looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from an old woman who had few kind words for her students and made them work harder than all the other teachers combined.Then Ms. Yates started to speak:“I can’t tell you how pleased I am to be here. I haven’t seen many of you since your graduation, but I have followed your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies. I have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students. Although I haven’t appeared in person,I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the births of your children, In my imagination.”Ms. Yates paused and started crying a bit. Then she continued：“It was my belief that if I pushed you as hard as I could, some of you would succeed to please me and others would succeed to annoy me. Regardless of our motives, I can see that you have all been successful in your chosen path.”“There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work. You have all been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and I want you to know I love you all from the bottom of my heart.”There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. The clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar（呼喊）.Lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing their eyes or crying openly with no shame all because of the words from a long forgotten English teacher from their hometown. 10.What activity was organized for the school reunion?A.

Strict but caring.DThe practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smart phones, writing by hand has become something of a nostalgic（怀旧的）skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful—both in school and in life.Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks—both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009,found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write.“Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active, which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.”Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe（转换）“those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,”the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye”helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot （发现）spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,”she said.“But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”15.What makes writing by hand a thing of the past?A. The absence of blackboards in classrooms.B. The use of new technologies in teaching.C. The lack of practice in handwriting.D. The popular use of smart phones.16. Berninger’s study published in 2009__________ .A. focused on the difference between writing byhand and on a computerB. indicated that students prefer to write with apen and paperC. found that good essays are made up of longsentencesD. discussed the importance of writing speed17.Which of the following best shows the role of spelling?A. Spelling improves one’s memory of words.B. Spelling ability is closely related to writingability.C. Spelling benefits the translation from wordsinto ideas.D. Spelling slows down finding exact words toexpress ideas.18.What does “mind’s eye”in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Window.B. Soul.C. Picture.D. Imagination.19.What conclusion could be drawn from the passage?A. Computers can help people with their choice ofwords.B. Spell checks can take the place of spellingteaching.C. Handwriting still has a place in today’s clas s-rooms.D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in thefifth grade.Ⅳ.阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）［1］Music is an art that almost everyone enjoys. Everyone can make sounds by singing, banging a stick, plucking(拨) a tight string or blowing through a pipe. All over the world, many kinds of music have developed as people found out how to make sounds in different ways. There are so many kinds of music to hear that you can soon find a kind that you like. ［2］People can get all kinds of feelings while hearing music and this is why music is so popular. Music can make you march or dance; it can make you feel happy or sad. More than other arts, music can affect your mood and feelings.［3］Every country has its own kind of music. In France many people like dance-music played on the accordion，and many Americans enjoy banjo music. Spain is famous for its guitar music, and India for the twang sound of the sitar (锡塔琴).［4］Many people like music in their own national style. But there are also people who enjoy classical music and pop music, which has spread throughout the world with the help of the record-player and radio.［5］However, there are still great differences between the music of the West and ______ of the East. Many of the instruments are very different. The guitar and the sitar are both instruments in which strings are plucked by fingers, but they don’t sound alike.

of the Rings，one of the best sellers in the new millennium（千年），was made up of three parts—“The Fellowship of the Ring”，“Two Towers”，and “The Ret urn of theKing”．Millions upon millions of people have read it in over 25 different languages，but fewer know about the author and the history of the composition of the creative masterwork.John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born in South Africa in 1892.His parents died when he was a child.Living in England with his aunt，Tolkien and his cousins made up play languages，a hobby that led to Tolkien's becoming skilled in Welsh，Greek，Gothic，Old Norse and Anglo-Saxon.After graduating from Oxford，Tolkien served in World War Ⅰ．In 1917，while recovering from trench fever，he began composing the mythology（神话）for The Rings.As a professor of Anglo-Saxon in 1930s at Oxford，Tolkien was part of an informal discussion group called the Inklings，which included several writers.The group was soon listening to chapters of Tolkien's imaginative work The Hobbit.Hobbit was a name Tolkien created for local people that could best be described as half-sized members of the English rural（乡村的）class.Hobbit live in hillside holes.One of them，Bilbo Baggins，looks for treasures with a group of dwarves（侏儒）．On the way，he meets the twisted，pitiful creature Gollum，from whom he sees a golden ring that makes the holder invisible.One of Tolkien's students persuaded her employer，publisher Allen & Unwin，to look at a draft（草稿）．The chairman of the firm，Stanley Unwin，thought that the best judge for a children's book would be his ten-year-old son.The boy earned a shilling for reporting back that the adventure was exciting，and The Hobbit was published in 1937.It sold so well that Unwin asked for a continuation.Over a dozen years later，in 1954，Tolkien produced The Lord of the Rings，a series of books so creative that they hold readers—new and old—after their publication.1．What can we learn from the text?A．The Lord of the Rings didn't sell well in the last millennium.B．People know better about Tolkien himself than about his works.C．Tolkien was quite familiar with Old English.D．Tolkien knew very well about different kinds of local languages in Africa.2．Which of the following helped most in making The Hobbit published?A．One of Tolkien's students.B．Stanley Unwin's son.C．Allen & Unwin.D．Bilbo Baggins.3．What can we learn about “Hobbit” that Tolkien created in his works?A．Hobbit was a race living in English downtown areas.B．Hobbit was a local people who were very tall and strong.C．Hobbit was a social group of people who lived in old castles.D．Hobbit was a group of people who were mostly dwarves.4．What is mainly discussed in the text?A．The Lord of the Rings and its writer.B．A completely new masterwork in the new millennium.C．A famous professor at Oxford University.D．The power of the magic ring.参考答案Ⅰ. 1. stubborn 2. distributed 3. shone 4. revenge 5. burden6. adjustments7. appealing8. accumulated9. attain 10.

The findings, the first to show differences in very young babies, suggest there is a biological basis to their preferences.Psychologists Dr. Brenda Todd from City University London carried out an experiment involving 90 babies aged 9 months to 36 months.The babies were allowed to choose from seven toys. Some were typically boys’ toys—a car, a digger, a ball and a blue teddy. The rest were girls’ toys: a pink teddy, a doll and a cooking set. They were placed a meter away from the toys, and could pick whichever toy they liked; their choices and the amount of time they spent playing with each toy were recorded.Of the youngest children (9 to 14 months), girls spent significantly longer playing with the doll than boys, and boys spent much more time with the car and ball than the girls did. Among the two and three-year-olds, girls spent 50 percent of the time playing with the doll while only two boys briefly touched it. The boys spent almost 90 percent of their time playing with cars, which the girls barely touched. There was no link between the parents’ view on which toys were more appropriate for boys or girls, and t he children’s choices.Dr. Brenda Todd said, “Children of this age are already exposed to much socialization. Boys may be given ‘toys that go’ while girls get toys they can care for, which may help shape their preference. But these findings agree with the former idea that children show natural interests in particular kinds of toys. There could be a biological basis for their choices. Males through evolution have been adapted to prefer moving objects, probably through hunting instincts （本能）, while girls prefer warmer colors such as pink, the color of a newborn baby.”41.

We may read this article in a ______ section of anewspaper.A. scienceB. healthC. educationD. entertainmentCForget counting sheep, next time you are having trouble going to sleep, try putting on a jazz CD.Researchers have shown just 45 minutes of relaxing music before bedtime can make for a restful night. The Taiwanese researchers studied the sleeping patterns of 60 elderly people with sleep problems. They told the Journal of Advanced Nursing how the technique was easy to learn and lacked the side effects of other treatments.The study participants were either given a choice of music to listen to before going to sleep or nothing at all. The music group was able to choose from six tapes that featured soft, slow music—around 60~80 beats per minute—such as jazz, folk or orchestral pieces.Listening to music caused physical changes that aided restful sleep, including a lower heart and respiratory（呼吸的）rate, the researchers found.The people in the music group reported a 35% improvement in their sleep, including better and longer night-time sleep and less dysfunction（机能障碍）during the day.Lead author Professor Hui-Ling Lai of the Buddhist Tzu-Chi General Hospital and the University of Taiwan said, “The music group reported a 26% overall improvement in the first week and this figure continued to rise as they mastered the technique of relaxing into sedative（有镇静作用的）music.”Professor Jim Horne, from the Sleep Research Centre at Loughborough Unive rsity, said, “If anyone is a bit worried before they go to bed, then anything that can help calm them down and relax is a good thing.”“Some say making sure older people sleep less in the afternoon and get plenty of exposure to daylight can help them ge t a better night’s sleep.”46.

At one point the woman asked, “So, how have you been?” And the boy—who could not have been more than seven or eight years old—replied, “Frankly, I’ve been feeling a little depressed lately.”This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn’t find out we were “depressed” ,that is, in low spirits, until we were in high school.Undoubtedly a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don’t seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why? Human development is depended not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of gaining social knowledge. Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new social positions. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages; traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation（揭示）machine has been installed in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information to all viewers alike, whether they are children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation, many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more attractive moving pictures.Communication through print, as a matter of fact,allows for a great deal of control covering the social information which children will gain. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.51. According to the author, feeling depressed is________.A. a sure sign of a mental problem in a childB. a mental state present in all humans, includingchildrenC. something that can’t be avoided in children’smental developmentD. something hardly to be expected in a youngchild52.

It helps children to read and write well.D. It can control what children are to learn.55. What does the author think of the change intoday’s children?A.
