They have looked at them 21 the telescope and 22 this way they have found out 23 . They know, for example, many facts about the moon.The moon is about 384,000 kilometres 24 the earth .

In this way we have such words as watt, ohm, diesel, dahlia, macadam, ampere, morse.A good many everyday words, however, have also found their way into the language from the names of people. The very popular word sandwich, for example, comes from the name of Lord Sandwich (1718 – 1792). While he sat at the gambling table, he used to eat slices of meat placed between two slices of bread. His friends began to call this sort of food a sandwich because only Lord Sandwich ate it. But later on it became popular and had to have a real name. So what began as a nickname gradually became part of the common language.Another commonly used word is to boycott, meaning to refuse to have any connection or business with. This comes from Captain Boycott, who was the agent of an English land owner in Ireland in 1880. He treated his tenants so badly that they all refused to speak to hi,. By this policy they eventually obtained his removal. Such treatment was referred to as a boycott. Soon afterwards this verb to boycott was coined. Both the noun and the verb are still widely used.41．What’s the passage chiefly concerned with?A．English words and names of scientists.B．English words and names of people.C．English words and discovery.D．Words and famous people.42．A sandwich was named after Lord Sandwich because .A．he was fond of itB．he was the only person that ate itC．he was the manufacturer of the foodD．it became popular43．It is suggested that Lord Sandwich .A．was mad about gamblingB．had to eat a sandwich because he was in debtC．invented gamblingD．coined the word of sandwich44．The word tenant (Paragraph 4, Line 4) probably refers to a .A．customer B．doctorC．patient D．Person who rents a houseBAnimals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies need. It has been demonstrated that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, prefer water with vitamins to water without vitamins even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottles. When a fragrant flavor was added to the vitamin-enriched fluid, the rats did seem to develop a taste for it and kept drinking it ,even after the vitamins were switched to the clear water. In time, however ,they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were.In a classic experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria feeding arrangement, with a wide selection of baby food before them. They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested in. We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating patterns, but that over a period of time they managed to select well-balanced diet.So, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on what's best for them. Apparently, there is a kind of ""body wisdom,＂ which humans soon lose. Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could. Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long-established habits. Some people eat fox, dog and blackbirds ,while we eat cows and pigs. So what people eat and how much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around them.45．In the experiment on rats, a fragrant flavor was added to the rat's drinking water to_________.A．encourage rats to drink vitamin-enriched waterB．find out rats’ preference in flavorC．test whether rats know which drink is good for themD．demonstrate that vitamins are tasteless46．As far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats are similar in that_________.A．both have the wisdom to choose a balanced dietB．both prefer flavored food and drinkC．both have the same eating patternsD．both develop a taste for the same kinds of flavors47．In the classic experiment mentioned in the second paragraph, babies were .A．give many choices of drinksB．provided with various kinds of baby foodC．placed and fed in a cafeteriaD．trained to select a balanced diet48．According to the passage, adults’ eating habits differ from those of babies because_________.A．adults know better than babies what kinds of food are good for their health B．adults usually cannot resist the temptation of various delicious foods C．adults’eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customs D．adults have more choices of food than babies in eating patternsCTwo weeks after the opening ceremony, the Games are over. The last of the three hundred gold medals has been awarded and the flags of the winners have been raised for the last time.The final event is the closing ceremony. It is a sad occasion because the extreme excitement is over, and it will not happen again for four years. Those who have made friends will have to say goodbye, perhaps for ever. It is also a happy occasion because the competition is over and the athletes can really show their friendship for one another.The closing ceremony is rather like the opening. But now the Olympic flame goes out and the Olympic flag, with its five rings, is lowered. The person who closes the Games calls upon the youth of the world to meet again in four years’ time. The scoreboard lights up with the name of the city for the next Games and the band starts to play. The celebration starts.All the athletes try to be at the closing ceremony. They have forgotten all their fears and worries. It does not matter whether they have done well or not. All the teams walk round the stadium together. Everybody in the Village clears up and gets ready to leave. Everyone is hunting for local products. People. Exchange track suits, hats, running vests and so on. There is a last chance to take photographs and get addresses of new friends. Then each team starts its journey home.49．At the closing ceremony, it is found that .A．all are called on to meet again in four years’ timeB．no music is neededC．the name of the city for the next Games is shownD．the Olympic flame is taken out of the stadium50．What can we infer about the athletes from the passage?A．All of them are not present at the closing ceremony.B．They are only competitors rather than friends.C．They can never help worrying about losing the games.D．They exchange clothes for fun.51．The underlined phrase “clears up〞 in the last paragraph means _.A．packs up B．goes awayC．makes clear D．does the cleaning52．From the passage it can be learnt that the closing ceremony is probably .A．a sad occasion because all the exciting competitions are overB．a happy occasion because the athletes can make new friendsC．a sad and a happy occasion at the same timeD．neither sad nor happy because it will happen again in four years’ timeD13 years ago, William Stiles, an expert in American Indian history, discovered the treasure as you see here : a 1966 Volvo.He bought it because ads of the time said Volvos were so tough that they lasted an average of 11 years in Sweden.As Mr Stiles remembers: One ad said that a Volvo was so tough that you could “Drive it like you hate it.〞I did exactly like that. In my field work, I’ve driven this car 295,000hard miles. Much of it through former Indian countryside. It is held up even better than promised. Driving it like I hated it made me love it.Expressions of love are not uncommon among Volvo owners. In fact, 9 out of 10 people who have bought new Volvos are happy.So if you are unhappy with your present car, do what Mr Stiles once did after reading one of our ads. Buy one of our cars.53．William Stiles bought a 1966 Volvo because.A．he was promised that it wouldn’t easily be worn outB．he learnt that it was as modern as any of its kindC．he knew that it was the best seller in the Swedish marketsD．he was fooled into believing that it worked well54．After buying the car, William Stiles.A．drove it whenever he felt unhappy with itB．had it tested in different kinds of conditionsC．drove it madly across the whole country as if he hated itD．tested it in his field work to see how long it could last55．The underlined part in the second paragraph “I’ve driven this car 295,000 hard miles〞 implies that .A．he drove a long way, completely tired outB．the road conditions were unusually badC．life was hard during his long rideD．he had much trouble all the way56．In the ad, William Stiles’ story is used simply to .A．make him known to car buyersB．cause people to take notice of the car factoryC．make the ad much easier to understandD．get more buyers to believe in this car57．Which of the following is not included in a starter pack?A．One hundred used stamps and hinges and albumB．The collectors Club Guide to Collecting and badge and stickersC．The latest Collectors Club magazine and membership cardD．Royal Mail Stamp Calendar and Collectors Corner and supplement58．This ad is written for people who want to .A．make money through collecting stampsB．develop stamp collection as a hobby.C．get something free from the clubD．find out where the club is located59．From the ad we can learn .A．Collector Club is among the biggest clubs in this country.B．How much you must pay to become a member of the clubC．today is the last day for stamp collectors to join the clubD．members may receive a set of album pages every month60．Where is this ad most probably found?A．In a newspaper B．On a web page C．In a magazine D．On a TV program 第二节：补全对话〔5分〕K: Dr Kelly A: Alice L: Dr LaverK : 61A : Well, I’ve been feeling ill ever since a barbecue a few days ago.

During my latest book cleaning adventure ，I found one that had fallen behind the shelf:“Tales of Edgar Allan Poe ．”Not an unusual title ，but the words written on the first page made it very special “With Love from Mom and Dad ，Christmas 1965．” What ’s this? A book on the physics of lasers （激光）．It is filled with mathematical statements ，and I had bought it at a library sale when I was 12，not long after the laser had been invented ．I couldn ’t understand a bit of it ，but I did learn what ―laser ‖meant ．What I end up with when I empty my bookshelves is a cross-section （横剖面）of my personal history. It ’s like a road cut where one sees all the layers of rock going back through time to the beginning of the simplest life forms ．The books I ’ve read —and kept —are not just old fiends ．They ’ re my resume ． 64．What could be said about the author?A ．He is too busy to tidy up his bookshelves ．B ．He considers his books treasured possessions ．C ．He has made a lot of notes in his book ．D ．He is a lover of sclence books ．65．By saying that his book have voices ，the author means_________.A ．they bring back happy memoriesB ．they are recorded in human voiceC ．they say a lot about human historyD ．they offer good topic for discussion 66．What does the author enjoy most from re-orgazining his books ？A ．Finding some missing books ．B ．Putting books in good order ．C ．Learning something new from the books ，D ．Rediscovering interesting stories behind some books ．67．The underlined word ―resume ‖in the last paragraph probably means_______． A. personal history B. precious notes C. good companion D. simple life formsDSpending beyond one’s means is becoming a national problem for Americans．Borrowing has become so easy that it takes great willpower for people to refuse it．“I received a number of gold MasterCard and gold Visa card offers in the mail during the past two months，”said one computer engineer at AT ＆T Bell Laboratories in Chicago．“I got three of them in one day last week．”Lenders are providing easy credit（信贷）for borrowers．Many banks now offer every borrower a great variety of credit，a service once offered almost only to big companies．Norwest Bank Minneapolis offers lending programs for cars and boats that can cut monthly payments nearly in half .Carmakers，too，are lengthening easier terms．Ford Motor Credit states that 45 % of its recent lendings has been for sixty months，rather than the sixty-six-month period that was usual before．The total consumer debt（债务）in the United States rose 73 percent between 1974 and 1984，as the debt for each man，woman，and child increased from $10，264 to $26，566．Huge debt now is present in our economy（经济）at all levels．As a nation，we are more than $7 trillion in debt，and the total keeps increasing astonishingly.As we have overborrowed，so have we overspent．In late 1986，the share of after-tax income that Americans saved sank below 2 percent for a short time，less than half the figure at which we saved only 10 years ago．Americans now are buying from foreigners between about $50 and $100 billion more Mercedes and Toyotas, Paris fashions，and tours to Europe than the Boeing 747s，agriculture machinery , or Kansas wheat that the foreigners bought from America. The country could not produce and pay for all the things it wanted.To make a long story short, we Americans have serious problems in keeping down spending and keeping up personal savings．It is high time for us American people to learn the basics of long-term money management.68．According to the author, what is a main reason for Americans to overspend？A．Americans buy a lot of foreign products．B．It is easy for Americans to manage their debts．C．Borrowing money has become a simple matter．D．Americans have more extra money than before．69．Ford Motor Credit lengthens 45％of its lending to 60 months in order to_______．A．help more Americans to settle their debts B．encourage people to buy foreign cars C．make better use of its money D．attract more customers70．What does the author suggestas a way to deal with overborrowing?A．Teaching people how to manage money．B．Advising people on what to buy．C．Limiting the use of credit cards．D．Reducing average incomes．71．Which of the following points does the author wish to make?A．America should sell more of its products abroad．B．A healthy society has to learn to 1ive within its means．C．People’s income determines their money management．D．Govemment should prevent people from overborrowing．EEvery person leaves a footprint. That’s what I learnt when I started to work as a private investigator 10 years ago．People pay restaurant bills with their bank card，check into hotels or travel around. In every case，they leave a trace．And because of this，I’m able to track them down even when they don’t want to be found．The first thing I do when I want to find out where someone is staying is to go to the neighbourhood where he used to live．It’s human nature to tell stories—which is why neighbours will tell me all they know when I ring at their houses．Sometimes，someone even talks about his fri end’s dishonesty．Then I produce a pattern of my subject’s life：if he likes to have a holiday in Spain or in Italy，if he prefers two- or three- star hotels and where he might hide his assets(资产)．When I’ve got this life pattern，I start my research．Nine times out of l0，I find the people I’m looking for．I once investigated a lorry supplier who owed ￡500,000 to a subcontractor(分包商)．The subcontractor wanted to find out if it was worth bringing charges against the supplier．I found out the supplier had moved assets to his son，who founded a new company offering the same product．It was a11 done within the law．There was no money to be got from that operation．However, I asked the son if I could speak to his father and he told me that his parent was on a long holiday in Spain and wouldn’t be back for a while．It didn’t take me long to find out that the father wasn’t in Spain．I went back to the son and this time he told me that his father might be in Bulgaria,and I found him doing winter sports in a beautiful mountain area．He was 1iving in a big house on a 1arge piece of land he had bought for￡400，000．This was exactly the kind of asset my customer was loooking for．72．We learn from the text that a private investigator is one who_______.A．follows people reports on what they do B．helps people start businessesC．gives advice to people about the law D．settles arguments between companies 73．Why does the author visit the place where his subject used to stay？A．To find out his hidden assets．B．To gather information about him．C．To discover why he is dishonest．D．To find out where he spends his holiday．74．The lorry supplier moved his assets to his son in oder to______．A．pass on his debt to his son B．double the business of his companyC．le t his son take over his lorry business D．prevent paying back the money he owed 75．We may infer from the text that the subcontractor might______.A．bring charges against the lorry supplier’s son B．give up hope of settling the debt C．sell the big house in Bulgaria D．get his money back第Ⅱ卷第一节：短文改错(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

But in a program in New York, adults and teenagers live together in peace.Each summer 200 teenagers and 50 adults live together for 8 weeks as members of a work group. Everyone works several hours each day. The aim is not just to keep busy. It is to find meaning in work. Some teenagers work on the farm near the village. Some learn to build a house. The adults teach them. There are several free hours each day. Weekends are free, too. During the free hours, some of the teenagers learn painting. Others sit round and talk or sing. Each teenager has his own way to spend his free time.When people live together, rules are always needed. In this program the teenagers and adults make the rules together. If someone breaks a rule, the problem goes before the whole group. They ask, ―Why did it happen? What do we have to do with it?’’One of the teenagers has this to say about the program, ―You stop thinking only about yourself.

If we continue to use water at the rate we do now, we will soon not have enough to meet our needs. In 1900, 40 billion gallons were used each day in the United States.

The people living here want to let their dog play outsideand ensure it won't run into the street. So, they hired acompany to set up an "invisible fence" an electric wireburied in the ground around the yard. The dog wears aspecial collar and when it walks near to the "fence", thewire will send out a small shock. The dog quickly learnsto stay away from the edge of the yard. As it says at the bottom of the sign, the fence will keep your dog "safe" (away from the street) and "at home" (contained inside the yard).The small word "BRAND" printed in blue means that "Invisible Fence" is registered as the company's brand name. Similarly, the "TM" printed after "your dog safe at home" stands for "trade mark", a slogan registered specifically to one company.41．The people set up an "invisible fence " ______.A．to let their dog play outside their houseB．to keep their dog away from the edge of the yardC．to keep their dog inside their yardD．to warn others not to enter their house42．Which of the following is NOT true about the "invisible fence"?A．The fence does not exist at all.B．The "invisible Fence" is a brand name of a company.C．Without the special collar, the fence won't work on the dog.D．Science and technology play an important part in it.43．The purpose of the passage is to _____.A．introduce a new product for your dogB．expand your knowledge of foreign cultureC．give a detailed explanation of the "invisible fence"D．help you understand the sign in the picture44．What can you infer from the passage?A．Dogs have become more and more clever.B．Companies place much value on trade marks nowadays.C．The sign is actually an advertisement of a certain company.D．The more advanced technology is, the less free dogs becomeBEach Indian tribe had a different language. Many Indians never learned any language except their own. Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each other? They had two ways to talk without sound. One way was by sign language; the other way by signals.Sign language is a way of talking by using signs. Indians used sign language when they met strangers. In this way, they could find out whether the stranger was a friend or an enemy. In Indian sign language, signs were made with the hands. One sign meant "man". Another meant "horse". To tell the time of the day when something happened, an Indian pointed to the sky. He showed where the sun had been at the time.Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away. To make signals, an Indian might use a horse. He might use a blanket. Or he might use smoke, a mirror or fire arrows.To signal that he had seen many animals, an Indian rode his horse in a large circle. Sometimes the Indians gave a signal like this and then went away to hide. This meant that there was danger.The blanket signal was visible from far away. An Indian held the corners of a blanket in his hands. Then he began to wave the blanket from side to side in front of him. An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.He could also send many signals with a mirror. He usually used the mirror to warn someone of danger. Or he tried to get the attention of a person far away. But he also used it to send messages in code. Of course, mirrors could be used only when the sun was shining. At night, Indians used fire arrows for signaling.An Indian also sent signals with smoke. He made a small fire of dry wood. Then he put grass or green branches on it. He held a blanket over the fire for a minute. When he removed the blanket from the fire, there was a cloud of smoke. The number of clouds of smoke told his message in code.Now you can see that Indians didn’t need to learn each other’s language. They could talk toone another by using signals or sign language.45．Which of the following is true?A．Indians sent signals with dry wood fires at night.B．When Indians wanted top say "sun", he pointed to the sky.C．Indians used sign language to find out whether a stranger was a friend or an enemy.D．When an Indian meant there was danger, he drew a big circle on the ground.46．An Indian used a mirror to ________.A．draw the attention of someone in the distanceB．send messages in codeC．warn someone of dangerD．all of the above47．The main idea of this passage is .A．talking by such means as signals and signsB．using signals to send messages to people far awayC．sending secret codes in the form of signs and signalsD．speaking in a certain language without having to makeCTragedy at the CircusIn yesterday’s circus show, a tiger suddenly attacked its trainer and had to be shot dead. As the circus packed up and left, circus officials said the show would go on, even without tigers.However, the officials can’t simply turn a blind eye to the ethical problems left behind. Even before this tragedy, animal rights activists protested against keeping wild animals in unnatural conditions and forcing them to suffer for the profit of circus organizers.It is now time for us to take effective steps to make sure that circus animals are treated properly.*******************************Circus Safe for AnimalsOur circus recently suffered a most tragic event in its history. While we are thankful for the pity from the public, we are also astonished by the opinion e xprssed in “Tragedy at the Circus.”First, our performing animals are not taken from the wild. As to the ethical problems, we always believe humans and animals can—and should—live together nicely. To us, the performing animals are representatives of their species, and our circus is one of the only places left willing to support this special role of performing animals in the existence of the species. Those who argue that circus life is harmful to animals show little knowledge of these facts. Life in the “wild”is unsafe, but a continuous struggle for existence. To overlook these reslities is the greatest fault against the animal kingdom.This circus has proven that animals are stronger and smarter than we could imagine. Within the circus is a joyful atmosphere for both animals and humans: people are educated, and species saved.48．What is the main purpose of the first passage?A．To show pity for the performing animals.B．To express worries about animal trainers' safety.C．To deal with the difficult situations of the circus.D．To call for action to protect circus animals.49．What will the circus most probably do?A．Take no notice of the tragedy. B．Continue its performances.C．Use fewer wild animals. D．Limit its profit.50．What does the circus think of its performing animals?A．They are as clever as human beings.B．They struggle continuously with human beings for existence.C．They are helpful in saving their species.D．They have equally natural living conditions as wild animals.51．What is the most probable relationship between the two passages?A．A public request and a newspaper report.B．A newspaper article and a reply to it.C．Two parts of a newspaper article.D．Two newspaper reports.DThe flag, the most common symbol of a nation in the modern world, is also one of the most ancient. With a clear symbolic meaning, the flag in the traditional form is still used today to mark buildings, ships and other vehicles related to a country.The national flag as we know it today is in no way a primitive artifact. It is, rather, the product of thousands of years' development. Historians believe that it had two major ancestors, of which the earlier served to show wind direction.Early human beings used very fragile houses and boats. Often strong winds would tear roofs from houses or cause high waves that endangered travelers. People's food supplies were similarly vulnerable. Even after they had learned how to plant grains, they still needed help from nature to ensure good harvests. Therefore they feared and depended on the power of the wind, which could bring warmth from one direction and cold from another.Using a simple piece of cloth tied to the top of a post to tell the direction of the wind was more dependable than earlier methods, such as watching the rising of smoke from a fire. The connection of the flag with heavenly power was therefore reasonable. Early human societies began to fix long pieces of cloth to the tops of totems before carrying them into battle. They believed that the power of the wind would be added to the good wishes of the gods and ancestors represented by the totems themselves.These flags developed very slowly into modern flags. The first known flag of a nation or a ruler was unmarked: The king of China around 1000 B.C. was known to have a white flag carried ahead of him. This practice might have been learned from Egyptians even further in the past, but it was from China that it spread over trade routes through India, then across Arab lands, and finally to Europe, where it met up with the other ancestor of the national flag.52．The best title for the passage would be .A．Development of the National Flag B．Power of the National FlagC．Types of Flags D．Uses of Flags53．The underlined word "vulnerable" in Paragraph 3 means .A．impossible to make sure of B．likely to be protectedC．easy to damage D．difficult to find54．The earliest flags were connected with heavenly power because .A．they could tell wind directionB．they could bring good luck to fightersC．they were handed down by the ancestorsD．they were believed to stand for natural forces55．What does the author know of the first national flag?A．He knows when it was sent to Europe.B．He believes it was made in Egypt.C．He thinks it came from China.D．He doubts where it started.56．What will the author most probably talk about next?A．The role of China in the spread of the national flag.B．The second ancestor of the national flag.C．The use of modern flags in Europe.D．The importance of modern flags.EMany people believe the glare from snow causes snowblindness. Yet, with dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snowblindness, when exposed to several hours of “snow light”.The United States army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snowblindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather, a man’s eyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad space of snow-covered without-grass land. So his gaze continually moves and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding something, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become tired and the eye muscles ache. Nature makes up for this discomfort by producing more and more fluid which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity until it makes eyes difficult to see dearly and the result is total, even though for a short time, snowblindness.Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts ahead of the troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored objects ahead on which they can focus too. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop searching the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snowblind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a continuous white land is overcome.57．To prevent snowblindness caused by the strong light from snow, wearing glasses or not ______________.A．depends on whether the snow is white enoughB．makes no differenceC．makes much differenceD．depends on whether the snow is thick58．When the eyes are tired, tears flow out _________.A．to clear the vision B．to make the eyes stop searchingC．to make the vision unclear D．to produce more and more liquid 59．Snowblindness can be avoided .A．by moving one’s gaze back and forthB．by walking ahead and keeping looking aroundC．by making up for the discomfort of one’s eyesD．by providing the eyes with something to focus on60．What is the probable meaning of the underlined part “Their gaze is arrested”(in paragraph 3)?A．They get something to look at. B．They can only look at one spot.C．Their eyes are clear. D．They can’t see freely.第二节根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两处是多余选项。
