On Midsummer's Eve,which was a Saturday,Mr. Jones went into Willing ton and got so drunk at the Red Lion that he did not come back until midday on Sunday. His men had milked the cows in the early morning and then had gone out chatting without bothering to feed the animals. When Mr. Jones got back,he immediately went to sleep on the living-room sofa with the "News of the World" over his face. When evening came,the animals werestill not fed. At last,they could stand no longer. One of the cows broke into the door of the storehouse with her horns and all the animals began to help themselves to the grains.It was just then that Mr. Jones woke up. The next moment he and his four men were in the storehouse with whips in their hands,whipping in all directions. This was more than the hungry animals would bear.Together,though nothing of the kind had been planned beforehand,they jumped upon their masters. Mr. Jones and his men suddenly found themselves being struck with the horns and kicked from all sides. The situation was quite out of their control. They had never seen these animals act like this before. This sudden rebellion of the creatures,which they were used to beating and whipping just as they chose,frightened them. After only a moment or two,they gave up trying to defend themselves. A minute later all five of them were in full fright down the road with the animals running after them joyfully.1.The four men did not feed the cows because_______.Athey had not cut the hay yetBMr. Jones wasn't at homeCthey did not have time to feed themDthe cows had fed themselves2.The cows broke into the storehouse because______.Athey did not like their mastersBMr. Jones forgot to lock the doorCthey were kept in the cow-house too longDthey were too hungry to wait for the feed3.What did the five men finally do with the cows?AThey chased and drove the cows away.BThey continued beating the cows.CThey gave up defense and ran away.DThey gave ·in and fed the cows.4.We can learn from the passage that______.Athe cows often ran out to look for foodBthe cows often had fights with their mastersCMr. Jones and his men often beat the cowsDMr. Jones and his men often forgot to feed the cowsPassage TwoIt was sunrise on an August morning when the captain and his crew cast their nets some 50 miles south of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. As the net was pulled over,the contents poured out followed by excited cries of "Coins!Coins!" The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fisherman's dream:sunken treasure!And not just any treasure,but early American silver dollars that had gone down 210 years earlier.In 1784,at the end of the American Revolutionary War,a heavily armed ship was bound for the port of New Orleans. On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars. Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans,yet not a single one arrived. With no survivors from the ill-fated voyage,historians can only guess at what happened. Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasure-hungry pirates(海盗). Whatever happened,the secret-along with a treasure valued near $100,000,000 in today' s dollars-was sent to a watery grave some 300 feet below the ocean's surface.Spanish Silver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial Americans. Widely used and accepted as payment in the thirteen colonies,the United States government gave them the status of official legal tender. Unfortunately,even though they were struck in large quantities,not many of them survive today. After the Civil War,the government withdrew them from circulation and they were melted down.Due to the historic discovery of this treasure,Gov Mint . com is releasing these coins to the public for an amazingly low price. For a limited time,thoseauthentic silver dollars are priced at $49 plus shipping and handling—a dramatic reduction from the market price of this coin anywhere else worldwide.5.What surprised the fishermen on an August morning?ATheir net contained a big strange-looking fish.BThey found the treasure sunken 210 years ago.CThey found some pieces of a sunken ship in the net.DTheir net suddenly got caught by something deep in the water.6.What happened to the ship heading for New Orleans in 1784?ALoaded with too much cargo,it hit on the rocks.BRobbed by pirates ,it lost $100,000,000's worth of goods.CIt disappeared but nobody knew exactly what had happened.DIt was caught in a terrible storm and went down into the ocean.7.What do we know about "Spanish Silver Dollars"?AToday one coin equals to 49 dollars in the world market.BThey were widely used in America after the Civil War.CIssued in small amounts,not many of them survive.DThey were officially accepted in the 13 colonies.8.In which section of a magazine would you probably find this article?ASports.BHousing.CHistory.DFashion.Passage ThreeThe environment affects the way people interact. To examine this conclusion,two researchers "decorated" three rooms:One room was refurnished to look ugly. The second room was intended to look average. The third room was designed to be beautiful.Individuals were then asked to sit in one of the three rooms and rate several pictures of people's faces. The results indicated that the environment has a significant effect on the way people rated the faces. Subjects in the beautiful room gave the pictures higher rates than did subjects in the ugly room. In addition,subjects in the ugly room found the task more unpleasant and boring than did subjects in the beautiful room. Subjects assigned to the ugly room attempted to leave sooner than did subjects assigned to the beautiful room.Color is one environmental factor that can affect your mood and even your ability to concentrate. One researcher concluded that the most pleasant colors,listed in order of preference,were blue,green,purple,red and yellow. The colors listed from most to least arousing were red,orange,yellow,violet,blue,andgreen. Lighting also affects behavior. Elegant restaurants with dim lighting create a mood of intimacy(密切)that encourages conversation. The bright lights of an office or classroom,on the other hand,arouse and stimulate thinking.Room decoration,color,lighting,and even music and temperature all influence communication with others;but there is no all-purpose environment. The ideal environment depends on the task that will be performed as well as on the needs and expectations of those present. The same environmental factors that encourage lively conversation and dancing at a New Year's Eve party cannot be expected to create a serene climate in which to study for final exams.9.Paragraph 1 shows that subjects in the ugly room tend to be______.Aless patientBless considerateCmore enthusiasticDmore confident10.Which color is the most helpful for keeping a good mood?AGreen.BBlue.COrange.DRed.11.Which color is the most helpful for keeping a good mood?AGreen.BBlue.COrange.DRed.12.What effect can dim lights of an eating environment bring about?AArousing active thinking.BImproving work efficiency.CCreating a tense atmosphereDStimulating talks among people.13. The underlined word "serene" in the last sentence is closest in meaning to______.Aserious and graveBcalm and peacefulCpleasant and friendlyDcold and indifferentPassage FourThere is nothing more possible than a new hip or knee that can put the spring back in your step. Patients receiving joint implants(移植)often are able to resume many of the physical activities they love,even those as vigorous as tennis and hiking. No wonder,then,that joint replacement is growing in popularity.In the United States in ,surgeons performed about 806,000 hip and knee implants (the joints most commonly replaced),double the number performed a decade earlier. Though these procedures have become routine,they are not failure free.Implants must sometimes be replaced,said Dr. Henrik Malchau ,an or thopaedic surgeon (矫形外科医生) at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. A study published in found that 7 percent of hips implanted in Medicare patients had to be replaced within seven and a half years.The percentage may sound low,but the finding suggests that thousands of hip patients eventually require a second operation,said Dr. Malchau. Those patients must endure additional recoveries,often painful,and increased medical expenses.The failure rate should be lower,many experts-agree. Sweden,for instance,has a failure rate estimated to be a third of that in the United States. Sweden also has a national joint replacement registry,a database of information from which surgeons can learn how and why certain procedures go wrong. A registry also helps surgeons learn quickly whether a specific type of implant is particularly problematic. "Every country that has developed a registry has been able to reduce failure rates Significantly," said Dr. Daniel Berry,chief of orthopaedic surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester,Minn.A newly formed American Joint Replacement Registry will begin gathering data from hospitals in the next 12 to 18 months. It's good news for those who are considering replacing a knee or hip.14.What is the problem with hip or knee replacements in the U. S. ?AA lot of patients need a second operation.BDoctors are not well trained to ensure successful operations.CDemands for hip replacement exceed the number of surgeons.DReplacement operation is becoming too expensive in U. S. hospitals.15.Why does Sweden have a lower rate of hip implant failure?ASweden has more advanced technology.BSweden has a patient data collecting system.CSweden has a much larger number of patients.DSwedish doctors are more responsible and skilful.16.Why does Sweden have a lower rate of hip implant failure?ASweden has more advanced technology.BSweden has a patient data collecting system.CSweden has a much larger number of patients.DSwedish doctors are more responsible and skilful.17.The U. S. is trying to reduce joint replacement failure rate by_____..Astrictly controlling the number of replacement operationsBasking hospitals to follow up each case for 12 -18 monthsCsetting up a national joins replacement databaseDsending doctors to be trained in Sweden18.People who need a new knee or hip would possibly feel_____. about data gathering in the U. S.AindifferentBassuredCpuzzledDhopefulPassage FiveThe Saturday Evening Post "became symbolic of the reading fare of middle-class America". In 1897 Curtis began to revive (重振) the Post on the proposition that a man's chief interest in life is the fight for .livelihood-business. Fiction and articles about romantic business and successful businessmen filled its pages,and products backed by .its advertisements directed at the needs and desires of the business world. The general interest weekly reached new audiences. Its conservative viewpoint and strong admiration for material success appealed to the tastes of the millions who settled in an easy chair with it each Thursday evening. As a more commercial,mass-circulation magazine than The New Yorker,the widely readable Post set out to interpret America to itself.As a national and international institution,The Saturday Evening Post made its mark in the lives of massive numbers of men and women,and served society as a stabilizing influence. Its editorial matter addressed the problems and interests of the readers as never before. Neither highbrow nor lowbrow,the Post set out to interpret average middle-class America,for that was its audience. However,this magazine lost touch with the mood of the American people in the 1930s. The Post's editor Lorimer,opposed Roosevelt and the New Deal and changed his magazine from an organ of entertainment and enlightenment into a weapon of political warfare. He believed that in opposing the New Deal he had spoken for the majority of voters,but the 1936 election proved him wrong. His conservatism extended beyond politics,it dominated the magazine’s content and style causing a decline in reputation and authority. The Post met its greatest success when it went beyond the tastes of the masses,challenging its readers to acknowledge the genius of contributors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and William Faulkner. It was later reformed in an effort to fulfill its responsibility to awaken lethargic(昏昏欲睡)America,however,The Saturday Evening Post seemed to play to conventions while The New Yorker took off to redefine the character of American Humor.19.According to Paragraph 1,who are primarily the readers of the Post?ABusinessmen.BCollege students.CHousewives.DPoliticians.20.What is the earliest time that readers can read the Post every week?AMonday.BThursday.CSaturday.DSunday.21.Why did the Post lose much of its audience in the 1930's?AIt changed its original style and was heavily involved in politics.BReaders couldn't afford a newspaper because of the Depression.CThe new editor was not interested in Roosevelt's politics.DIt failed to absorb sufficient advertisements.22.What makes the Post so commercially successful?APresenting American style humor.BSticking to the tastes of the middle class.CCarrying articles and novels by local writers.DStaying in close contact with the business world5、Daily Conversation1.Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogues by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Sarah:Hello. I'm calling to rent an apartment you advertised.Manager:Yes. What kind of apartment are you interested in?Sarah:I' m interested in a one-bedroom apartment. 56_______?Manager:Yes,I have one. 57_______?Sarah:Sometime around next week. 58_______ ?Manager:Well,it's a one-bedroom apartment.

And ... 59_______.Sarah:Sounds good. 60_______ ?Manager:Sure. See you tomorrow then.6、Writing1.请以低碳生活(a low carbon life)为主题写一篇100-120词短文,内容涉及:流行低碳生活背景(如:极端气候、各种灾害、环境污染等);实行低碳生活若干方式(如家庭生活、工作学习、外出旅行中节约行为等) ;低碳生活带来积极影响。

Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. choose the best and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line throw the center.Passage oneCancer is among the top killer diseases in our society today and scientists have found out that stress helps to bring it on. It is worthwhile to consider, therefore, what are the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do anything about them.Are we under-employed, or overburdened with too many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure in our lives? Are our relationships with family, friends or fellow workers all they should be?All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face it honestly, and to bring our frustrations(失意,挫折)into the open. People who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle up their feelings.If our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will accept a different living standard. We can improve our personal relationships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hour’s anger. The teaching in the Bible “ Let notthe sun go down upon your wrath(愤怒)” is good advice from the health point of view as well as religious.16. which of the following statement is true?A. Freedom from responsibilities helps relieve stress.B. Stress is the direct cause of cancer.C. The causes of stress are worthy of serious study.D. Cancer is the number one killer in our society today.17. According to the passage, which of the following types of people is more likely to suffer from stress?A. People who have cancer.B. People who like to quarrel with others.C. People whose living standard is low.D. People who have more responsibilities than they can handle.18. Judging from the context, the word “row” in the third paragraph most probably means _____.A. a noisy quarrelB. a very loud noiseC. a neat line of things side by side.D. a journey in a boat19. which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to reduce our stress?A. Changing our jobsB. Reading the BibleC. Changing our attitude about little things that make us unhappy.D. speaking out about our frustrations20. “Let not the sun go down upon your wrath” probably means_____.A. Don’t let your anger last long.B. Don’t get angry while the sun is going down.C. Don’t get angry easily about little things.D. Don’t watch the sun set while you are angry.Passage twoConcerning money or anything else, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect a power struggle. Conflicts between parent and child often center around the same issue. As children enter adolescence, they begin to demand greater freedom to go where they please, do what they please, and make decisions without parental interference. Many American parents do not know how to deal with their teenagers and seek advice from books, lectures, and parent training courses. Parents want to maintain a friendly relationship with their teenagers and also want to guide them so that their behavior will be whatever the parents consider proper and constructive.But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values, parents and children often disagree about what is important and what is right.Arguments may concern such unimportant matters as styles or hairdos. But quarrels may also concern school work, after school jobs, decisions, use of the family car, dating and sex behavior. Some families have serious problems with teenagers who drop out of school, run away from home, or use illegal drugs. Because so much publicity is given to the problem teenager, one gets the impression that all teenagers are troublemaker. Actually, relatively few adolescents do anything wrong, and all grow up into “solid citizen” who fulfill most of their parents’ expectations. In fact, recent studies show that the “generation gap” is narrowing. The vast majority of teenager s share most of their parents’ values and ideas. Many parents feel that they get along with their adolescents quite well.21. According to the writer, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect _____.A. feeling of hatredB. power struggleC. that they don’t care for each otherD. that they may appeal to divorce22. As children enter adolescents, they begin to do the following except _____.A. demanding greater freedom to go wherever they pleaseB. making decisions without parental interferenceC. getting married whenever they pleaseD. doing what they please23. “--- generation gap is narrowing.” Means ______.A. the adolescents now become timidB. parents come to get along with their childrenC. the vast majority of teenagers share most of their parents’ values and ideasD. parents and teenager don’t like to quarrel24. Parents and children often disagree about what is important or right because _____.A. they have different styles of lifeB. they hate each otherC. parents think that their children are troublemakersD. they are in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values25. When many American parents don’t know how to deal with their children they seek advice from the following except ______.A. neighborsB. parent-training courseC. booksD. lecturesPassage threeA youngster’s social development has a profound effect on his academic progress. Kids who have trouble getting along with their classmates can end up behind academically as well and have a higher chance of dropping out(). In the earlygrades especially, experts say, youngsters should be encouraged to work in groups rather than individually so that teachers can spot children who may be having problems making friends. “ When children work on a project,” says Lillian Kate, an educational professor at the University of Illinois, “they learn to work together, to disagree, to think to take turns and lighten tensions.” These skills can’t be learned through lecture. We all know people who have wonderful technical skills but don’t have any social skills. Relationship should be the first R.At a certain age, children are also learning to judge themselves in relation to others. For most children, school marks the first time that their goals are not set by an internal clock but by the outside world. Just as the 1-year- old struggling to walk the 6-year-old is struggling to meet adult expectations. “Young kids don’t know how to distinguish early-childhood education for the state of New Jersey, if they try hard to do something and fail, they may conclude that they will never be able to accomplish a particular task. The effect is serious,” says Hills, “a child who has had his confidence really damaged needs a rescue operation.”26. In the author’s view, a kid’s poor relationship with his classmates would _____.A. have negative effects on his studyB. develop his individualism but limit his intelligenceC. eventually lead to his leaving schoolD. have nothing to do with his achievement in a course27. In the first paragraph, the word “spot” means_______.A. teachB. helpC. findD. treat28. For most children, school makes them understand_________.A. that it is society rather than individual that decides one’s futureB. that they can meet the social needsC. that one’s effort and one’s ability can be two quite different mattersD. that social needs and individual needs have nothing in common29. Which of the following is most unlikely for theauthor to do?A. To talk to the students who have mental problemsB. To help students develop a feeling of self-respectC. To keep a student from playing aloneD. T announce a student’s score in public30. Which of the following is the major concern of the passage about a student’s needs?A. Individualism and cooperationB. Academic success and independent thinkingC. Socialization and feeling of competenceD. Intelligence and respectPassage fourIt is difficult to imagine what life would be likewithout memory. The meaning of thousands of perceptions, the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habitand skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It includes not only “remembering ” things like arithmetic or historical facts, but alsoinvolving any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain becausehe has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memoryis also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It isinteresting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant-accessmemory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words”--- ready for instant use. An average U.S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of ap erson’s memory is in terms of words and combination of words.31. According to the passage, memory is considered to be _______.A. the basis for decision making and problem solvingB. an ability to store experiences for future useC. an intelligence typically possessed by human beingsD. the data mainly consisting of words and combination of words32. The comparison made between the memory of a large capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that _____.A. the computer’s mem ory has a little bigger capacity than a teenagerB. the computer’s memory capacity is much smaller than an adult human being’sC. the computer’s memory capacity is much smaller even than a teenagerD. both A and B33. The whole passage implies that _______.A. only human beings have problem-solving intelligenceB. a person’s memory is different from a computer’s in every respectC. animals are able to solve only very simple problemsD. animals solves problems by instincts rather than intelligence34. The phrase “in terms of ” in the last sentence can best be replaced by ______.A. “in connection with ”B. “expressed by”C. “ consisting”D. “by means of”35. The topic of the passage is: __________.A. What would life be like without memory?B. Memory is of vital importance to lifeC. How is a person’s memory different from an animal’sor a computer’s?D. What is contained in memory?Part Three Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

Reading comprehension (60 points ) Directions: There are five reading passages in this each passage is followed by four questions. For each questions there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage One Forgenerations, the Nganyi people of western Kenya have served as rainmakers, helping local communities decide when best to prepare their land and sow their seeds. By observing subtle changes in nature that would be unnoticeable to most people-in air currents, the flowering and shedding of leaves of certain trees, the behaviour of ants, bird songs, etc-they have been able to interpret weather patterns and provide valuable advice. But the irregular weather patterns brought by climate change mean the rainmakers can no longer use tho se sighs to make their predictions. And they don’t have access to the technologies available to meteorologists (气象学家). “Climate change has come on so fast. People d on’t know how to adapt or what to plant,”says Obedi Osoce, a traditional weatherman. “Our traditional crops are disappearing because they cannot handle the new conditions. We need new strategies to handle climate change.” Now aBritish-Canadian project si doing just that, linking the rainmakers with government meteorologists. The two groups get together each season and produce an agreed forecast to be spread using a variety of methodssuited to communities where many cannot read or write-through ceremonies, public meetings and person-to person comma-kation. Both parties are pleased with the collab oration. “ I think the two sciences equally valid. We are marrying our energies to help people better,” says Mr. Onunga, a Nganyi community elder involved in the project. ‘The results have been surprisingly good-the community agreed that the forecast was a ccurate,” says Gilbert Ouma, a lecturer at the University of Nairobi. “Through this project we hope to learn what it is that we can share together to live today and to adapt to tomorrow,”says Professor Laban Ogallo, leader of the Nganyi project. 36. Which of the following has been used by traditional Nganyi rainmakers in weather prediction?A.Plant seedsB.Dog harksC.Bird songsD.Ocean currents37. What difficulty do local rainmakers face in making weather predictions?A. They cannot find an effective way to delivermessages.B. They lack modern technologies to cope with climate change.C. They cannot get financial support from the local government.D. They lack the facilities to stop traditional crops from disappearing.38. How do people involved in the British-Canadian project feel about their cooperation?A. SatisfiedB.ConfusedC. HopefulD.Regretful39. Which statement best expresses the main idea of the passage?A. A British-Canadian project has been carried out to solve farming problems.B. The Nganyi people have made weather forecasts by observing changes in nature.C. New technologies have replaced traditional methods in weather prediction in Keny A.D. Scientists and Kenyan rainmakers work together in ajoint weather prediction project.Passage Two After taking a six-week, fully paid maternity leave (产假) earlier this year, Francine Gemperle was anxious to resume her job but reluctant to be away from her baby daughter, Veronik A. Fortunately, she did’t have to choose between them. Maya Design, a Pittsburgh based creative consulting firm, allows parents to bring newborns into the office. “If I’d had to leave my children after my maternity leave ended, I would never have goes back to work,” says Gemperle, a designer and researcher, who brought her son Mi lo into the office after he was born. She’s not the only parent taking advantage of the benefit. Senior analyst Jon West brings his 10-mouth-old son, Owen, to the several times a month. In fact, when West considered using only part of his paternity leave, his co-workers urged him to take all six weeks. “I had pressure to take that leave,” recalls West, “People told me, it’s an important part of your life and you need to experience it.” “No matter how quiet the baby is, it’s an obvious distraction (分心的事),”sa ys Tory Johnson, the chief executive of Women for Hire, a New YorkCity-based recruiting film. No one has complained yet. Even if somebody did, it wouldn’t matter to Mickey McManus, Maya’s CEO and president, who argues that the policy builds loyalty and helps parents shift back into work mode. As part of its balancing act, Maya shares up to 2021of quarterly profits with its employees. However, the size of those checks might be up in the air at the moment. The firm once laid off five workers and it is now considering 4-day weeks to avoid more layoffs.40. Which of the following is true about Maya Design?A. It hires women with families.B. It has some overseas branches.C. It provide consulting services.D. It encourages the staff to work at home.41. What is Tory Johnson’s responsibility according to the passage?A. Taking on women employees.B. Dealing with women’s complaintsC. Dismissing unqualified women staffD. Taking care of women staff welfare42. What is the advantage of Maya’s policy according to Mickey McManus?A. It cuts down the management cost.B. It increases staff loyalty to the filmC. It keeps a balance between work and life.D. It promotes equality un employment.43. Which of these would be the best title for the passage?A. A Flexible Working ScheduleB. A staff shortage in Maya DesignC. A Pittsburgh-based Working PlaceD. A Company T aking Care of Young Parents Passage Three Harry Potter fans will instantly recognize the snowy owl as Harry’s famous companies, Hedwig, but these beautiful owls are easily recognizable not for their magical associations, but for their large size and striking while feathers. Snowy owls are, in fact, the only white owl, and they are a highly sought after species for many birdwatchers to add to their life lists. Foods: Small mammals, birds, fish. Habitat and Migration: Snowy owls are found in far northern latitudes including tundra, a vast treeless frozen region in the Arctic. Their breeding grounds (繁殖地) are in the Arctic tundra, and they migrate south throughout Canada during thewinter. In exceptionally server winters or when food supplies are searce, these owls can appear much further south than their normal range. While principally a North American bird, they can also migrate to the northern areas of Europe an Asia. Behaviour: Snowy owls, like all owls, are powerful animal bunters that are active mostly at night but can bunt and feed during the day, especially when food supplies are low. These owls will rest on the ground or on rocks, stumps and other low favorable points. Males can be fierce when defending the nest, and both genders will also perform an “injured bird” act to tempt animal invaders to go away from the nest. Reproduction: Snowy owls may incubate (孵卵) 3-10 eggs for 30-34 days, or the incubation may be done primarily by the freak. The baby owls remain in the nest for 14-21 days and will attempt their first flight when they are 42-58 days old. Mated pairs will raise one group of young birds per year unless food supplies are inadequate and then no eggs may be produced. 44、What have you learned from Paragraph 1?A. Harry Potter fans like snowy owlsB. Hedwig is one of the snowy owl watchersC. The snowy owl is a large bird with white feathersD. It is easy to find snowy owls in snow covered areas45、What does Paragraph 3 tell about snowy owls?A. The can be found in Asia and EuropeB. They live in groups in hard winter daysC. Their breeding grounds are in areas south to CanadaD. They appear in the Artic when food supplies are scarce46、For snowy owls, one way to defend their nest is _____A. to stand on a rock nearbyB. to pretend to have been injuredC. to spread their wingsD. to give a warning47、What will snowy owls probably do when food is insufficient?A. They may stop producing eggsB. They will reduce their flightsC. They will be less active at nightD. They will only hunt during he dayPassage Four We lost two superstars in 1977. Neither man’s admirers have been able to understand thesuccess of the other one. And this tells us something of the difference between the generations that the two singers represent. There were similarities between Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley. Both reached fame while young and became very rich. Although neither one had any musical education, both developed their own musical styles, which were first criticized by the critics and later studied as new forms in the art of popular song. Both men had successful movie careers despite a total lack of acting ability. Both were creations of the microphone, which made it possible for singers with weak voices to be heard beyond the third now. With Bing the microphone was usually hidden; but Elvis brought it to the stage. The difference between the two men reflects the changing values in American life Crosby’s music was soothing( 令人舒畅的) , Presley’s was disturbing. Crosby was singing to wartime America. His audiences had all the disturbance they could handle in their private lives, they did not want to buy more at the record sh op and the movie theater. Crosby’s admires always said how “relaxed” and “natural” he was. When Presley began his career, the wholecountry had become relaxed and easygoing. Its young people, who had no memory of trouble times, found it boring. They were hungry for excitement. They welcomed Elvis, who was certainly not the kind of young man their parents would admire. Presley was load and vulgar( 粗俗的) —— and be was bringing something new and exciting. It is probably too simple to explain each man in terms of changes in the economic and political situation. Something in the culture was also changing. 48、Which of the following could be inferred about Crosby and Presley?A. They died in the same year.B. They became popular in 1977C. They influenced each other in musicD. They represented the postwar generation49、In which aspect the singers are similar to each other?A. Their songs were widely used in moviesB. They became famous in late year of their livesC. Their musical styles are recognized by the criticsD. Neither of them received any formal musical education50、What did Crosby’s audiences get from his music?A. ExcitementB. DisturbanceC. Ease and comfortD. Passion and thrill51、What is most Presley to be discussed if the passage continues?A. The political situation that the two singers facedB. The cultural changes that the two singers experiencedC. The economic influence on the music of the two singersD. The message that the two singers expressed in their musicPassage Five There are millions of left-handed people in the world. A number of them got together in 1975 to form an association called Left-handers International. The purpose of the organization is to fight discrimination (particularly to jobs) and to inform the public. They want everybody to understand theleft-handers are neither “strange” nor sick nor dangerous. Many studies have been made recentlyabout hand preference in humans. They have brought interesting results. It has been found, for instance, that many more men than women are left-handed; that all children use both hands about equally until they are three years old; and that hand preference is not clearly marked until age six. Above that age, most people not only favour one particular hand but also have a favourite eye, a favourite ear and foot. We know that the left side of the body is controlled by the right side of the brain, which seems that this particular half is the seat of emotions, imagination, and of the sense of space. And, indeed, lefties in seem to be more creative than the right-handers; they also seem to be more athletic and to do better in some professions which---like sports----require a good sense of space. In a large school of architecture , it was found in 1977 that 29% of the professes and 23% of the graduating students were left-handed---while lefties represent less than 10% of the general population. Finally,left-handers may be more stubborn and impulsive( 冲动的) than right-handers. And they are more likely to suffer from problems such as stuttering( 口吃) and adifficulty in reading called dyslexia. The problems are more serious in left-handed persons who have been forced to favour their right hand. Doctors insist that one should never try to change a child’s hand preference.52、What does Left-handers International aim to do for left-handers?A. To create new jobsB. To promote equalityC. To show discriminationD. To study hand preference53、According to recent studies, when is hand preference formed?A. Before birthB. At birthC. At age threeD. At age six54、Compared with right-handers, left-handers______A. are less creativeB. are more easygoingC. have a better sense of spaceD. do better in most professions55、Left-handers are advised to stick to their hand preference because_____A. it is fun and comfortable to be left-handersB. the left hand is just as good as the right handC. it is difficult for them to switch to the right handD. changing hand preference may cause serious problemsV.

Reading Comprehension (45 points)Directions:There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by 5 questions. For each question there are 4 choices marked A),B),C),and D). Choose the ONE answer that best completes each sentence.Passage 1Writing,as a career,offers a range of personal rewards. It enables people to express themselves,as well as to entertain,inform,and influence others. With only a few tools—paper,a typewriter,a pencil,and often a personal computer—a writer can have an impact on the surrounding world. But most authors spend hundreds of hours perfecting their skills before they can sell any of their works.A person who wants to be a writer should set aside some time to write every day. Learning to express ideas clearly and effectively in writing takes a great deal of practice. Many experienced writers keep a journal. A journal can serve as a storehouse for information,observations,and ideas. It can also be a place to develop new material.Beginning writers should read many kinds of writing encountered every day and pay special attention to what they find most interesting. News items,feature stories,textbooks,cookbooks,repair manuals,poems,essays,short stories,novels,and plays differ in their methods of organizing and presenting material. A beginning writer who reads widely and carefully will develop an appreciation of different writing approaches and styles. In time,the writer can acquire a more flexible approach to his or her own work.Successful authors write about subjects they know and understand. They sometimes take weeks or months revising or refining an article,poem,or story. Beginning writers usually benefit from finding one or more friendly critics who will read their work and discuss its strengths and weaknesses with them.High schools and colleges offer many learning opportunities for young writers. Composition and literature courses can be helpful. Creative writing and journalism courses may further assist a beginning writer in developing his or her skills. Many students work on literary magazines,newspapers,or yearbooks published by their schools. They may write stories,edit articles,or gain other valuable experience.21. How important is writing according to this passage?A. People learn a lot from writing.B. We are entertained with different writings.C. Writing can influence the surrounding world.D. Books can be an important part of an industry.22. What does a journal NOT help to provide?A. Service.B. Ideas.C.Observations. D. Information.23. What should a beginning writer do to enjoy different writing styles?A. Reading different kinds of news items.B. Studying different writing methods.C. Learning the ways to present materials.D. Carefully reading as much as possible.24. Which of the following should a beginning writer avoid in order to improve his or her writing?A. Developing new subjects.B. Finding helpful critics.C. Attending writing courses.D. Doing editing work.25. In developing students’ writing ability,which of the following is not mentioned by the author?A. They can take composition and literature courses.B. They can take writing and journalism courses.C. They may work on literary magazines,newspapers,or yearbooks published bytheir schools.D. They may write stories or edit articles for professional journals.Passage 2The first day of university our professor introduced a new student who appears to be very different from the rest of us. That is Rose,an eighty-seven-year-old lady who always wore a big smile on her face.“Why are you in college at this age?” I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me.Over the year,Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she enjoyed being the center of attention from the other students. She was living it up!At the end of the semester,we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. She was introduced and stepped up to the stage.As she began to deliver her prepared speech,she dropped her speech cards on the floor. Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into the speaker and simply said,“I’m sorry I’m a bit nervous. I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me!”As we laughed Rose cleared her throat and began,“We do not stop laughing because we are old;we grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young,being happy,and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams,you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it!Have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did,but rather for things we didn’t do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.Finally,there is a huge difference between growing old and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing,you will turn twenty. This is growing old,by doing nothing to your life. The idea of growing up is to always find opportunity to change.”At the year’s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral.

That’s what all our friends called us when we first married.I guess Don and I deserved it. Money was tight. Sometimes we’d have to save up days just for an ice cream cone. Still,our tiny apartment seemed like paradise. Love does that,you know.The more we heard the term “lovebirds”,the more we thought about birds. One day we started saving up for a couple of lovebirds of our own. We knew we couldn’t afford to buy both birds and a nice cage,so in his spare moments,Don made the cage himself.We put our cage in front of a shaded window. Then we waited until our little saving was full of bills and spare change. With that money we “adopted” a pair of canaries from our local pet store,a male and a female,and named them Sunshine and Snowball.Time passed,and when our young lovebirds finally seemed mature enough to start a family of their own,we went ahead and prepared a nest area and lots of nesting material for them. Snowball was a very exacting wife in designing and decorating their nest just so,while Sunshine,filled with love,bent over backward to put everything just where she ordered.Then one day an egg appeared. How they sang!And a few weeks later when a tiny chick hatched,their happiness seemed to know no bounds. I don’t know how it happened,but that baby bird was bright orange. So right off we named him Punkinhead.The sunny days passed. How proud all of us were when our baby bird ran out of the nest onto a real grown-up perch!Then one day,Punkinhead suddenly fell head down to the bottom of the cage. The tiny orange bird just lay there,both parents and I rushed to his rescue.But he was dead. Just like that. Whether he’d had a heart attack before he fell or broke his neck in the fall,I’ll never know. But Punkinhead was gone.The mother bird refused to let either Sunshine or me get near that little body. Instead of the joyful melodies I usually heard from Snowball,now she gave only the most heartbreaking cries and moans. Her heart,joy and will seemed completely melted by her sorrow.Poor Sunshine didn’t know what to do. He kept trying to push Snowball away from her sad situation,but she refused to move. Instead,over and over she kept trying to wake up her beloved child.Finally Sunshine seemed to work out a plan. He convinced her to fly up and eat some seeds every so often,while he stood duty in her place. Then each time she left,he’d quietly place one piece of straw over Punkinhead’s body. Just one. But in a few days,piece by piece,it was completely covered over.At first Snowball seemed panic when she looked around,but she didn’t try to uncover the chick. Instead,she flew up to her normal place and stayed there. Then I was able to quietly reach in and remove the little body.After that,Sunshine spent all his time comforting Snowball. Eventually she started making normal sounds,and then one day,her sorrow finally melted and she sang again. I don’t know if Snowball ever realized the quiet labor of love and healing Sunshine had done for her. But they remained devoted for as long as they both lived. Love does that,you know.31.The title of the passage is “When Snowball Melted”. What does the title mean?A. The increasing temperature made the snowball melt.B.

The bird called Snowball was loved by her husband so it seemed like a snowball was melted.32. Why did “our tiny apartment seemed like paradise” even though we were poor?A. Because we love our tiny apartment.B. Because the tiny apartment housed a couple in love.C. Because we kept two birds in love in the tiny apartment.D. Because our tiny apartment was clean and cozy.33. In paragraph 4,why does the author use “‘adopted’ a pair of canaries from our local pet store” instead of the word “buy”?A. “Adopted” is used here to show that the birds are deserted by the store so the couple adopted them.B. “Adopted” is used here to show the couple’s love for the birds,while the word “buy”seemed to be cold and emotionless.C. “Adopted” is used here to show that nobody wanted the birds so the couple were the only one who bought them.D. there is no special reason why “adopted” is used here.34.

Yes,according to Christians,it was Adam’s apple that first changed humankind — the act of man disobeying to higher power that sets us apart by God. Adam’s story teaches us the importance of submission.We are becoming more self-sustained and forget the cores of life — love,joy and peace. Families,friends and our beloved ones are often neglected when we become self-centered in our jobs and responsibilities. We need to be reminded to love and be loved,stand firm in love and cherish the goodness of other people in our lives.The second most influential apple didn’t come until the 15th Century. A man sat under the famous apple tree and the universe-consigned apple fell right on his head,leading him to the famous law of universal gravitation.Sir Isaac Newton’s apple changed the world of science as well as mathematics by stating that “every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force directed along the line of centers for the two objects...” and so on.The point here is,Newton’s apple has not only inspired him to come up with the law of gravitation,but also encouraged human to dream big and to explore the world with imaginations. Many other great people arose from Newton’s great works and findings.Last but bot least,it is of course Steve Jobs’ Apple that has put the world on a different pace,in terms of his innovations in consumer electronics,computer software and personal computers.Jobs’ success stories took up each corner of Google’s page after he passed away. The highlight is none other than his return to Apple after being kicked out of his own company in 1997. Whenhe tried to lure John Sculley as Apple’s CEO,he asked,”Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want to change the world?”That obviously worked out pretty well. Yet,it was the passion towards innovation that Jobs has injected into his career that put him onto the top of the world. His life has definitely inspired many to contribute to the society through creativity.So here are three apples that changed our lives — three men at three totally different time of the history. How’s your apple coming along?36. What are NOT the cores of life according to the text?A. faithB. joyC. peaceD. love37. Who are the ones we often neglected when we become self-centered in our jobsand responsibilities?A. Families.B.Friends.C. Our belovedones. D. A,B and C38. Which of the following statement are NOT one of the influences brought by Newton’s apple?A. Newton’s apple inspired Newton to come up with the law of gravitation.B. Newton’s apple reminded human to love and be loved,stand firm in love and cherish the goodness of other people in our lives.C. Newton’s apple encouraged human to dream big.D. Newton’s apple encouraged human to explore the world with imagination.39 Steve Jobs’ innovations are in the following fields butA. Consumer electronics.B. Computer software.C. Personal computer.D.
