That’s because this tiny bookstore that is located in Ginza, Tokyo sells only a single book at a time. Opened in May 2015, Morioka Shoten is the brainchild of Yoshiyuki Morioka. He began his career as a bookstore clerk in Tokyo’s Kanda district before branching out to open his own store. It was here while organizing book reading and signing that he realized that customers usually came into the store with one title in mind. Morioka began to wonder if a store could exist by selling multiple copies of just one single

They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club,and anyone who supported Van Buren was call ed “OK”.26 . The author ______ .A.believes both of the storiesB.doesn’t believe a word of the storiesC.is not sure whether the stories are trueD.is telling the stories just for fun27 . According to the passage,President Jackson ______.A.couldn’t draw up any documents at all.B.didn’t like to read important papers by himself .C.often had his assistants sign documents for him.D.wasn’t good at reading,writing or spelling .28 . According to the first story, the term “OK”_________.A.was approved of by President JacksonB.was the title of some Official documentsC.was first used by President JacksonD.was an old way to spell“all correct’’29 . According to the second story,the term ‘‘OK”_________ .A.was the short way to say ‘‘old Kinderhook Club”B.meant the place where President Van Buren was bornC.was the name of Van Buren’s clubD.was used to call Van Buren’s supporters in the election30 . According to the second story.the term “OK” was first used _______ .A.by Van BurenB.in a presidential electionC.to organize the Old Kinderhook ClubD.by the members of the‘‘Old Kinderhook Club”(★★★★)We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes are about people.“Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?… ”, “When I got that great job,did Jerry really feel good about it,as a friend? Or did he envy my lu ck?”When we look back, doubts like these can make US feel bad.But when we look back.It’s too late. Why do we go wrong about our friends-or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning.And if we don’t really listen,we miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose someone tells you “you’re a lucky dog”.Is he really on your side? if he says.“You’re a lucky guy” or “You’re a lucky gal”.That’s being friendly.But “lucky dog”?There’s a bit of envy in those words Maybe he doesn’t see it himself.But bringing in the ‘‘dog” bit puts you down a little.What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck.How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture(体态)?The look in his eyes? Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.31 . From the questions in the first paragraph we can learn that the speaker _____ .A.feels happy,thinking of how nice his friends were to himB.feels he may not have “read”his friends’ true feelings correctlyC.thinks it was a mistake to have broken up with his girl friend,Helen.D.is sorry that his friends let him down32 . In the second paragraph.the author uses the example of “You’re a lucky dog”to show that ______.A.the speaker of this sentence is just being friendlyB.this saying means the same as “You’re a lucky guy”or “You’re a lucky gal”C.sometimes the words used by a speaker give a clue to the feeling behindthe wordsD.the word “dog” shouldn’t be used to apply to people33 . This passage tries to tell you how to ______ .A.avoid mistakes about money and friendsB.bring the “dog’’ bit into our conversationC.avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell youD.keep people friendly without trusting them34 . In listening to a person, the important thing is ______ .A.to notice his tone,his posture,and the look in his eyesB.to listen to how he pronounces his wordsC.to check his words against his manner,his tone of voice,and his postureD.not to believe what he says35 . If you followed the advice of the writer,you would ______ .A.be able to get the real meaning of what people say to youB.avoid any mistakes while talking with people who envy youC.not lose real friends who say things that do not please youD.be able to observe people as they are talking to you(★★★★)Does heavy use of cell phones lead to a risk of cancer? This question has caused serious arguments for many years. A new study in rats now adds to those concerns. Its data linked long-term, intense exposure (强烈的暴露) to radiation (辐射) from cell phones with an increased risk of cancer in the heart or brain.The results have yet to be confirmed(确认), the authors note. Moreover, they add, it’s not yetclear what the findings may mean in terms of human health.Indeed, although the rat study found a link between cell-phone radiation and cancer, it offers no clues to why such a link might exist, says Jonathan Samet. He teaches preventative medicine and directs the Institute for Global Health at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Still, he calls the new study’s findings “important”. They could le ad to studies looking into how cell-phone radiation might result in cancer, he says.Phone signals are relayed between cell towers and cell phones through radio waves. This radio frequency – or RF – radiation is a type known as non-ionizing(非离子化). Unlike X-rays and alpha particles, non-ionizing radiation does not put enough energy into cells to release electrons from atoms (原子)or molecules(分子), producing ions(离子). So it tends to be far less harmful than ionizing radiation, such as X-rays. But that does not mean radio waves might not cause harm.This radiation will heat the body and cause tissue damage. But it’s not yet known what much lower RF levels might do, such as those from cell-phone use. Five years ago, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer, or IARC, concluded that cell-phone use “is possibly carcinogenic.” That means it might cause cancer.Its conclusion was based on what little research data were available at that time. But notice that IARC was not certain. It said only that phone use might “possibly” cause cancer. So scientists at the National Toxicology Program, or NTP, decided to investigate further.36 . What concern does a new study cause?A.Long- term, intense radiation exists in cell phones.B.Heavy use of cell phones leads to a risk of cancer.C.The new study has caused serious arguments for many years.D.People have intense exposure to radiation.37 . What has been confirmed according to the new study?A.If people use cell phones all the time, they will certainly have cancer.B.The reason why the link between cell-phone and cancer exists is known.C.What much RF levels might do, such as those from cell- phone use is already clear.D.There is a link between cell-phone radiation and cancer.38 . What does the underlined word “ relay” mean in Paragraph 4?A.To pass a message from one place to anotherB.To existC.To release electricity from atoms or moleculesD.To cause cancer39 . Who will look into the research further?A.Doctor Jonathan Samet.B.The Institute for Global Health at the University of Southern California.C.The author of this article.D.Scientists at the National Toxicology Program, or NTP.40 . Where is the article possibly from?A.An educational magazine .B.A science website.C.A science fiction .D.A fashion report.(★★) Play Park lifeGet some exerciseBrighton24 th September – 14 th DecemberParklife is the university’s recreational sports programe looking to get you involved in sporting activity regardless of ability and without the commitment of regular training.

Or were you a middle or an only child? Some people think it matters where you were born in your family. But there are different ideas about what birth order means. Some people say that oldest children are smart and strong-willed.They are very likely to be successful. The reason for this is simple. 46 . So this child is very likely to do well. An only child will succeed for the same reason. 47 . .Middle children don't get so much attention, so they don't feel that important. If a family has many children, the middle one sometimes gets lost in the crowd. 48 . He or she is the baby. Often this child grows up to be funny and charming.Do you believe these ideas of birth order too? A recent study saw things quitedifferently.49 . They didn't take many chances in their lives. They usually followed orders and seldom made their own decisions. Rules didn't mean as much to later children in the family. Theywent out and followed their own ideas. 50 . .A.They took chances and they often did better in lifeB.Parents have a lot of time for their first child, they give him or her a lot of attentionC.The youngest child, though,often gets special treatmentD.The study found that first children believed in family rulesE.What happens to the other children in the family?四、根据首字母、中文提示填空(★★)根据下列句子及所给单词的首字母写出所缺单词。

The air was cool andbullfrogs croaked. It was that brief moment when the summer sun had set but the stars hadn't yet appeared. Lina rubbed her eyes and looked around."Hello?” she called. "Celia? Marie?"There was no response.The moon was rising now, shedding light on the island. They had always called it “Forgotten Island” because no one but they seemed to remember its existence. It wasn't on any of the maps they could find, and even the forest rangers didn't know about it. Lina loved that the island, hidden in a heavily-wooded side stream of the river, was a secret between the three friends - her, Celia, and Marie.But now Lina was here alone, and it was night. Worse still, it was her own fault."Come on, Lina, let Marie row the boat, "Celia had said. Marie was two years older than Lina, but she was a hopeless rower. That's why Lina refused and rowed the boat to the island. The argument that followed the refusal took the usual form. Celia took Marie's side, as she always did. Lina had exploded and yelled at them to just leave. So they got back in the boat and left.A bolt of lightning crossed the darkened sky, accompanied by a deafening thunder clap. The storm was here. As the first cold raindrop slid down her neck, Lina's mind returned to her current problem. She was stuck here by herself. She just hoped she didn't become as forgotten as the island. The thought of it sent a chill ( 寒意) down her back.Suddenly, Lina spotted something in the water. It was a boat, and inside it were Marie, Celia, and Marie's dad, who was steering through the fast flowing waters. As the boat approached, they saw Lina waving and the worried expressions on their faces turned to relief.In her excitement Lina jumped into the river. Only once she was in the icy water did she remember how fast the water was moving. Luckily a strong arm reached into the water and pulled her out. She smiled weakly at Marie's dad and, without a word, hugged Celia and Marie. They didn't seem to mind becoming wet.24.What can be inferred about the island?A. It is very near the ocean.B. It is a popular place for boating.C. It is surrounded by thick forest.D. It has never been reached by others.25. Why did Lina get angry?A. Marie would not help row the boat.B. Lina was left alone on the island.C. Marie didn't know how to row the boat.D. Celia supported Marie in the disagreement.26.What caused Lina to feel a chill?A. Her shame about the unnecessary argument.B. The first raindrops of the approaching storm.C. The idea that no one would come to save her.D. The drop in temperature as the sun went down.27. Who pulled Lina out of the water?A. Marie's father.B. Lina herself.C. Marie.D. Celia.CTourism is often about seeking deeper emotional and personal connections with the world around us. Not all travel experiences, however, need to take place in the real world. With the evolution of virtual reality(VR) technology, tourism will increasingly become a combination of physical and virtual worlds. VR may even remove the need to travel entirely.But can a VR experience really equal a real world one? Many experts believe it can. Studies have shown that our brains have an inbuilt VR-like mechanism that enables us to live imagined experiences. Much of our waking life is spent thinking about either the past or the future. This is known as "mind wandering". During these events we're not paying attention to the current world around us. Instead, we're recalling memories, or creating and processing imagined futures.When engaged in mind wandering, our brains process these mental images using the same pathways used to receive inputs from the real world. So, the imagined past or future can create emotions and feelings similar to how we react to everyday life. VR can create these same feeling.While critics might argue that a virtual experience will never match reality, there are several ways VR tourism could make a positive contribution. Firstly it could help protect sensitive locations from over-tourism. In recent years famous sites such as Maya Bay in Thailand, and Cambodia's Angkor Wat Temples have had to limit the number of visitors because of their negative impact. These places are now producing their own VR experiences that will allow tourists to pass through virtual models of the sites.Virtual reality may also allow people back in time, to experience historical events, visit ancient cities, and even to walk among dinosaurs.Finally, in a world where many people suffer from stress and depression due to overwork, virtual tourism may provide a cheap and convenient way for people to take brief holidays to otherwise unreachable destinations and recharge their batteries, without ever leaving their homes.It sounds like science fiction but it's already happening. As virtual technology improves and as people continue to demand new and interesting experiences, expect more virtual tourism, both in combination with the real world and instead of it.28.What is driving the development of virtual tourism?A. Companies seeking to make more money.B. Improvements in virtual reality technology.C. People's demand for more shared experiences.D. People's deeper understanding of the physical world.29.Which of the following best describes "mind wandering"?A. The brain processes which help people think VR is real.B. The way the brain processes inputs from the real world.C. Brain activities focusing on past or future events.D. Experiences coming from a person's imagination.30.What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Science fiction.B. Virtual technology.C. Virtual tourism.D. The real world.31.What is the purpose pf the passage?A. To describe the advantages of VR tourism.B. To give suggestions for reducing over-tourism.C. To encourage people to develop VR technology.D. To argue VR tourism will replace the real world travel.DBoth honeybees and ants are social insects that live in groups called colonies. They survive by means of their collective intelligence. Their decision-making power is distributed throughout the group; that is, no one ant or bee makes decisions for the group. Instead, they work together. As Deborah M. Gordon, a biologist atStanford University, says, "Ants aren't smart. Ant colonies are." The same is true for bee colonies. Although bees and ants are quite different physically, they have a lot in common in terms of their social behavior. Specifically, honeybees and ants have similar roles within the colony, both have communication systems, and both have the capacity for learning.Ants communicate by using chemicals called pheromones, which can alert others to danger or to a food source. For example, when worker ants find a promising source, they let the rest of the colony know how to find it by leaving a trail of pheromones on the way back to the colony. The other ants pick up the message using their sense of smell. Bees, on the other hand, use movement to communicate with each other. Worker bees send messages to each other by means of a "dance". Different speeds and movements send different messages. For example, when worker bees called scouts go out to find a new home for the colony, they return and do a dance for the other worker bees that indicates the location of the new home and how suitable it is. The faster the scouts dance, the better the new location is.Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning. One Chinese study found that bees can be trained to learn and remember a route to a food source. The researchers also found that bees can be taught to recognize hidden objects and use the concepts of "sameness" and "difference" to accomplish certain tasks. Ants take this one step further. Recent American research has shown that ants not only have the ability to learn, but also can teach their foraging skills to other younger ants. They observed that older ants accompany young ants in search of food and teach them the route and how to avoid obstacles.As we can see, the social behavior of honeybees and ants is quite similar. Both coordinate complex actions and accomplish crucial survival tasks by cooperating in groups consisting of many individuals. Unintelligent as the may be as individuals, as groups they often show amazing brilliance as they go about their everyday activities.32.What do ants and bees have in common?A. They live in similar-sized colonies.B. They make use of collective intelligence.C. They have small leadership groups that make all decisions.D. They use the same methods to communicate with each other.33.What does the speed of a bee's dance indicate?A. The quality of a new colony location.B. The distance to a neighboring colony.C. The discovery of a new food source.D. The direction to a potential food source.34.In paragraph 3, how does the author demonstrate the idea that Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning?A. By using statistics.B. By explaining reasons.C. By referencing opinions.D. By presenting study findings.35. What is the benefit of collective intelligence?A. It allows the colony to reproduce more rapidly.B. It improves work cooperation within the colony.C. It reduces the division of labour among members.D. It enables individuals to teach each other new skills.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。

Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from 1 home and running in the open air. 2 , a new study shows 3 the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather 4 improve one’s performance(身体机能). Many people say running in 5 winter is difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and strong winds. Yet many runners might find 6 easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is 7 than in warmer conditions. Besides, the body needs less water 8 a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from John Brewer, a 9 scientist at St. Mary’s University in London. Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat 10 by sweating, and that the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. But sweating puts much strain(张力)on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it is 11 harder to lose heat when the external environment is warm 12 . In addition, running in higher temperatures results in faster heart rates. Scientists find that heart rates are about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. However, running in cooler temperatures has 13 advantages. One is that the body does not have to work sohard to pump blood to the skin surface in cooler temperatures, which means running requires less energy. Several websites note that the most important thing for people 14 run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important 15 exercising in low temperatures.( ) 1.A. leave B. leaving C. left D. to leave( ) 2.A. But B. Therefore C.

I've been on expeditions (探险) in many places like China, Pakistan and so on. But it was in my home country, the USA, that I came closest to death.It was April, 2011. I was skiing in the Tetons with my friends Jeremy and Xavier. They were both excellent snowboarders. That day, I was the last person to ski. They were watching me from a safe area. Suddenly, I heard someone cry loudly. I turned around and saw the whole mountain start to move behind me. It was a massive avalanche (大雪崩). The kind of avalanche that destroys trees, cars, buses, even houses! Tens of thousands of tons of snow was coming straight down the mountain behind me. I felt the snow push me forward, hundreds of metres, and then cover me. It was so heavy that I couldn’t breathe. And then it pushed me forward again and up. I looked around, and for a few seconds, I actually stopped being frightened. I had a moment to stop and to look at the power of the avalanche.I looked down into the bottom of the valley (峡谷). I could see trees that were 30m tall because I was so far away, and they looked tiny to me. "OK, I'm going all the way to the bottom!" I thought. Then the snow pushed me again down the mountain another 450m. I thought the force of the snow would destroy me; it was powerful. But in the end. I felt the valance slow down and I just fell heavily over the snow at the bottom of the valley.It took Jeremy and Xavier about 20 minutes to reach me. There was a pile of debris (碎雪) across the bottom of the mountain 300m wide. They couldn't believe it when they saw me. I was so lucky.Has the experience changed me? Do I think about life differently? I don't know, maybe. But I do know that it's important to live your life with meaning. Life is a gift, so be grateful to God.26. From the passage, it's true that_______________________.A. the writer came closest to death when he skied in PakistanB. the avalanche pushed the writer down about 300m awayC. the writer's friends came to learn skiing with the writerD. the writer couldn't breathe because of the weight of the snow27. Which word can best describe the writer's feeling towards the avalanche?A. Excited.B. Scared.C. Happy.D. Patient28. The underlined word "they " in Paragraph 3 refers to_________.A. the mountainsB. the treesC. Jeremy and XavierD. the valleys29. In what order did the following events take place in the story?a. The snow pushed me hard down into the bottom of the valley.b. Jeremy and Xavier were seeing me in a safe place.c. I stopped for a while to see the avalanche.d My friends came to my side.e. I heard a loud voice and saw a huge avalanche coming behind me.A. b-e-c-a-dB. b-e-a-c-dC. d-c-a-b-eD. d-e-c-a-b30. According to the writer, __________.A. his experience and his friends have changed himB. it's impossible to know the force of the snowC. one should not live a meaningless lifeD. he doesn't mind the matter of life or death(B)Language changes all the time. New words and phrases appear and grow. The words and pronunciations used by young people in the UK can be very different from those used by adultsLiving in a multi (多元的)-cultural society has an effect on language, especially on young people, whose friends are often from a mix of backgrounds. TV and music also influence the language of the young.Young British people use lots of language that you usually can't find in most dictionaries. These very informal(不正规的) words and expressions are known as “slang”. It is not possible to make a complete list of modern British slang. By the time the list was finished, it would be out of date! However, here are a few examples:◆“Safe”,“ sorted”;“ sound”,“cool” and “wicked” all mean “That' s good" or “I understand”.◆“Whatever ”means “I don’t care”.(e.g. A: But the teacher says we can't leave until we've finished. B: Whatever. I'm going)◆“He's fine". And “He's fit ” both mean “He's good-looking”. Fine and fit can describe a boy or a girl.Not everybody uses slang and not everybody likes it. A school in Sheffield, has recently required its pupils to stop using slang words such as hiya (hello), cheers and ta(both mean “thank you "). The head teacher says that If young people learn to speak“correctly”, this will help them get a place at university and a good job。

How Black and White Become Basic Colors in Animal WorldBLiu Jinyin, a young farmer in a village of southwest China’s Sichuan Province, has attracted nearly 100,000 followers by broadcasting(网络直播) his daily life in the rural area. Within six months, Liu made 80,000 yuan. Some of his followers said his broadcasts reminded them of their childhood memories.The rise of live streaming (直播的兴起) has given ordinary people chances to receive more attention and make the ways they can make money.However, vulgar (粗俗的) content and lack of originality have long been criticized (批评) by society. The broadcasts of Liu stand out because of their different content — clean content that is close to real life, such as feeding pigs, transplanting rice seedlings (插秧), and catching fish.Liu’s videos also open a window for the people living in cities or towns to know more about village life. Liu does not ask for any gifts from his viewers. Instead, he lets the broadcasts serve as a platform (平台) for people to exchange ideas and make friends.Liu’s parents have found it hard to accept his money earning plan and criticized their son.Honestly speaking, broadcasting one’s daily life is not a proper job. But according to Karl Marx, when we choose a career, we should guide our choice of the career from the happiness of human beingsand our own perfection.Starting from the countryside, Liu mixes his personal development with the building of a new socialist (社会主义) countryside.

All the following things are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT __________.A. the amount of money Liu’s earned from his broadcasts.B. the number of people on Liu’s broadcasts.C. the disadvantages of Liu’s broadcasts.D. the reason why Liu’s broadcasts were watched by people.35. What’s the writer’s opinion on Liu’s career?A. He is against it.B. He supports it.C. He doesn’t care about it.D. He isn’t interested in it.CStill in shock! I moved around the house purposelessly trying to decide what to put into the suitcases (行李箱). Earlier that evening, I’d received a call telling me that my brother was killed in a car crash. “Come as soon as you can.” cried my mother.I wanted to hurry to her at once. But my husband, Larry, and I were packing to move from New York to Seattle. Our house was in total mess. Supper dishes sat on the kitchen table. Toys lay everywhere. I purposelessly picked things up and put them down. Mother’s crying went through my head again and again.Larry called some friends to tell them what had happened. Someone asked to speak to me. “If there’s anything I can do, let me know.” But I didn’t know what to ask for.Suddenly, the doorbell rang. It was Emerson. He and his wife Donna lived in the block nearby.“I’ve come to clean your shoes,” he said.I asked him to repeat.“Donna had to stay with the baby,” he said, “but we want to help you. I remember when my father died, it took me hours to clean our shoes for the funeral (葬礼). Give me all your shoes.”I gathered all our dirty shoes to the kitchen. Emerson got to work right away. Watching him devoting himself to one task helped me pull my own thoughts into order. I told myself to wash clothes first. Then, Larry and I bathed the children and put them to bed. One job after another.When we returned to clear the dishes, Emerson had left. All our shoes stood in a line against the wall, clean, shining. I couldn’t help crying. Early next morning, we left for the airport with all the jobs done.Now whenever I hear of a friend who’s lost a loved one, I no longer call with the polite offer,” If there’s anything I can do …” Instead I try to think of one specific task that suits that man’s need, like taking the dog to the boarding kennel, or house-sitting during the funeral. If the person asks,” How did you know I needed that one?” I reply, “Because a man once cleaned my shoes.”36. What does paragraph 1 mainly tell us?A. The writer’s house was in a mess.B. The writer’s mother was very sad about her son’s death.C. The writer heard the sad news from her mom and had no idea of what to do.D. The writer was ready to go to Seattle.37. The writer didn’t know what to put into the suitcases because _____.A. she couldn’t do it on her ownB. she was too sad to do anythingC. she wanted to take everything to SeattleD. she was not good at doing housework38. Here’s a time line of what happened in the story.Which of the events should go in the empty box above?A. Emerson came to clean the shoes.B. The couple bathed the children.C. They cleared the supper dishesD. The writer found the shoes cleaned.39. If one of her friends has lost a loved one, what will the writer probably NOT do?A. Call her friend to ask what she can do.B. Look after her friend’s young children.C. Take her friend’s dog to the boarding kennel.D. Offer her friend house-sitting during the funeral.40. Which sentence best expresses the theme(主题) of this story?A. One person’s loss is another’s gain.B. An act of kindness is often rewarded.C. A near neighbor is better than a brother far off.D. Do something specific to help those in need.DSorry, potato people! Although it’s probably no surprise that French fries are among the worstfood you can eat, most of us still don’t believe it. After all, it doesn’t hurt to eat some every once in a while ... right? But some people feel guilty (内疚的) to eat French fries and they have a good reason for that.According to a stud y published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, people’s guiltyfeeling may be well-placed. The research, which researched potato eating in 4,400 older peoplebetween ages of 45 and 79 over the course of eight years, shows that eating fried potatoes at least twicea week highly increases our danger of death.But hold up! Before you completely stop eating potatoes, you should know that it is found thateating potatoes overall (even a lot of them!) wouldn’t kill you. Instead, it’s the type of potat o thatmakes all the difference between life and death.Eating fried potatoes like French fries at least twice per week increased the risk of death in the study. On the other hand, potatoes that were not fried, such as boiled and baked potatoes, were less likely to cause death.Why? Potatoes have healthy levels of fiber (纤维) and vitamins, so you can partake without feeling bad. But when it comes to the fried food, you might need to think again. French fries usually have lots of fat and added salt, leading to weight growth. Still, when all is said and done, connection isn’t to tally equal to causation (因果关系). More research is needed before certainly concluding that eating French fries alone increases the risk of death.Luckily, potatoes are still considered as one of your suggested three to five servings of vegetables per day. Just try not to eat the fatty ones, if you can.41. How do some people feel after eating some French fries?A. They feel sorry for themselves.B. They are eager to eat more French fries.C. They are satisfied about eating them.D. They are unhappy because their risk of heart attack increases.42. What’s the passage mainly about?A. People’s reasons for feeling guilty.B. The worst food that should be avoided.C. A study about potatoes’ effects on people’s health.D. Research on the relation between French fries and death.43. From the findings of the study, we learn that________.A. potatoes aren't good for everyoneB. much food can mean life and deathC. we shouldn't eat one type of food too muchD. how food is cooked is important to our health44. What does the underlined word “ones” in Paragraph 6 refer to?A. Fruit.B. Vegetables.C. Potatoes.D. French fries.45. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A. People s houldn’t eat potatoes any more in daily life.B. People should eat potatoes which have less fat.C. Although potatoes arc a kind of vegetables, we can't eat them.D. Potatoes aren’t allowed to eat by people who are in bad health.第二节阅读填空(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and for the environment.As nations developed, population increased and earning rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet. 46 . By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker.In the Western diet, about 400 or 500 calories more than people need are eaten a day 47 . Overweight people have more chances for the diseases like heart disease and some cancers. Heart disease is a main cause of death in the Western countries.Unfortunately, when people become rich, if they adopt this Western diet, they are going to have these same health problems. Now in Asia, people have them more likely than in the West. 48 . And that is happening all across the world, in Mexico, in Nigeria and so on, just nation after nation.49 . As the world’s population grows, more forests will become farmland or grasslands. 50 . Because of the change in diet, in the future the greenhouse gases from these areas will be more than all that which right now comes out of all kinds of transportation, such as cars, airplanes, boats and ships. So our change in diet is likely to be worse for the world, and for the weather warming than all the transportation we use now.四、写作(共四节,满分45分)第一节单词拼写(共6小题,每小题1分,满分6分)51.

I thought.Then the snow pushed me again down the mountain another 450m.I thought the force of the snow would destroy me;it was powerful.But in the end.I felt the avalanche slow down and I just fell heavily over the snow at the bottom of the valley.It took Jeremy and Xavier about 20 minutes to reach me.There was a pile of debris (碎雪)across the bottom of the mountain 300m wide.They couldn't believe it when the saw me.I was so lucky.Has the experience changed me?Do I think about life differently?I don't know,maybe.But I do know that it's important to live your life with meaning.Life is a gift,so be grateful to God.(1)From the passage,it's true that.A.the writer came closest to death when he skied in PakistanB.the avalanche pushed the writer down about 300 m awayC.the writer's friends came to learn skiing with the writerD.the writer couldn't breathe because of the weight of the snow(2)Which word can best describe the writer's feeling towards the avalanche?A.Excited B.Scared C.Happy D.Patient(3)The underlined word "they " in Paragraph 3 refers to.A.the mountains B.the trees C.

However,here are a few examples:◆"Safe"," sorted";" sound","cool" and "wicked" all mean "That' s good or "Iunderstand".◆"Whatever "means "I don't care".(e.g.A:But the teacher says we can't leave untilwe've finished.B:Whatever.I'm going)◆"He's fine".And "He's fit " both mean "He's good﹣looking".Fine and fit candescribe a boy or a girl.Not everybody uses slang and not everybody likes it.A school in Sheffield,has recently required its pupils to stop using slang words such as hiya (hello),cheers and ta(both mean "thank you ").The head teacher says that if young people learn to speak"correctly",this will help them get a place at university and a good job.So,how important is it to learn these slang words and expressions?If you watch films or TV in English,read magazines in English,chat online in English or are interested in English song lyrics,then understanding slang can be very useful.You probably won't see much slang in your English exam,though.(1)Which is the best word to complete the blank?Peter:I've just passed my exam!Jenny:! Well done!A.Cheers B.Whatever C.Hiya D.Cool(2)Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Modern slang changes very quicklyB.Young people use the same slang as their parentsC."Fit" is only used to describe boysD.It's a must to learn some British slang(3)The example of the school in Sheffield shows that.A.many British schools encourage the use of slangB.speaking slang helps young people to get better jobsC.children from different cultures feel respectedD.slang is not considered as proper English in schools(4)Understanding slang might not be useful when you.A.watch films and TV in English B.read magazines in EnglishC.do English exam papers D.talk to your British net﹣pal(5)The author's main purpose is toA.A discuss that slang should be stopped B.explain the best way to learn slang C.tell readers about British slang D.interest readers with slang wordsC配对阅读左栏是五个人的情况介绍, 右栏是七个商品介绍, 请根据这五个人的描述, 选出五、短文填空(本题有10小题, 每小题1.5分, 共15分)请用适当的词完成下面的短文, 并把所缺的单词填写在答题卡指定的位置上. 每个空只能填写一个形式正确、意义相符的单词。
