One by one, graffiti-covered walls are being changed into outdoor art. So far, more than 1,800 murals(壁画)have been painted. Philadelphia now has more murals than any other American city.The walls that were once ugly with graffiti(涂鸦)are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art, thanks to the Mural Arts Program (MAP). Its work makes schoolsand public places attractive, and its citizens very proud. The program began as part ofPhiladelphia's Anti-Graffiti Network. Jane Golden is the MAP's artisticdirector. "When people askme what our program is about," she says, "I answer them with one word: hope." Each year, theMAP offers youth art programs and workshops. Some one-time graffiti writers even help paintMAP murals.The MAP's work, says Golden, is all about developing a sense of community(社区).When a neighborhood requests a mural, the MAP works with the people there to develop a message. Somemessages have been "Safe Streets," "Love and Care," and "Peace Walk."The MAP receives up to 50 requests for murals each week. Last year, the workers painted 140murals."The making of a mural enters people's collective memory as an extraordinary, pleasantmoment in neighborhood history" says Golden, who began as a muralist in Los Angeles.41.What can be the best title for the text?A. Love, from Graffiti Writers to MuralistsB. MAP, a New Company in PhiladelphiaC. Jane, an Excellent Mural ArtistD. Hope, One Wall at a Time42. What is the Mural Arts Program in Philadelphia aimed at?A. Helping the young find jobs.B. Protecting the neighborhood.C. Fighting against graffiti.D. Attracting more visitors.43.How does the MAP decide on the message for a mural?A. By having discussions with people in the community.B.By seeking advice from the city government.C.By learning from the young graffiti writers.D. By studying the history of the city.44. Which of the following words best describes the work of the MAP?A. Difficult. B.Dangerous. C. Experimental.D. Successful.BFor those who study the development of intelligence(智力)in the animal world, self-awareness is an important measurement. An animal that is aware(意识)of itself has a high level of intelligence.Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror, that is, its own reflected image(反射出地影像).Many animals fail this exercise bitterly, paying evry little attention to the reflected image. Only humans, and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins, have shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.Now another animal has joined the club. In the Proceedings of the NationalAcademy of Sciences, researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror self-reflection test.“We thought that elephants were the next important animal,” said Dinana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society, an author of the study with Joshua M.Plotnik and Fans B.M. de Waal of EmoryUniversity. With their large brains, Reiss said, elephants “seemed like cousins to apes and dolphins.”The researchers tested Happy, Maxine and Patty, three elephants at the Bronx Zoo.They put an 8-foot-square mirror on a wall of the animals’play area (out of the sight of zoo visitors) and recorded what happened with cameras, including one built in the mirror.The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it, and to examine parts of their bodies.Of the three, Happy then passed the test, in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face. She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror, and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.Diana Reiss said, "We knew elephants were intelligent, but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way."45. What can mirror tests tell us about animals?A. Whether they have large brains.B.Whether they have self-awareness.C. Whether they enjoy outdoor exercises.D. Whether they enjoy playing with mirrors.46. Why does the author mention apes and dolphins in the text?A. They are most familiar to readers.B. They are big favorites with zoo visitors.C. They are included in the study by Reiss.D. They are already known to be intelligent.47. What made Happy different from Maxine and Patty?A. She used her nose to search behind the mirror.B. She recognized her own image in the mirror.C. She painted a mark on her own face.D. She found the hidden camera.CStudent Membership--Cambridge Arts CinemaCambridge Arts Cinema is one of the art houses in Britain and home of the internationallycelebrated Cambridge Film Festival. Since 1947 generations of students have discovered the wealth of world cinema. Now you too can make most of it and save money.48. Which of the following is the most famous event held at Cambridge Arts Cinema?A. The Cambridge Film Festival.B. Meetings with filmmakers.C. The preview screening.D. Monthly premieres.49. If you're a member of Cambridge Arts Cinema, you will enjoy free_A. Darkroom Gallery showsB. mailed programmesC. special film eventsD. film shows50.

Announcing the opening of a premiere.C. Telling the public of the cinema's address.D. Increasing the cinema's membership.DThe way we do things round hereSome years ago, I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of thePersonnel Department that started, "Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to joinus." That "quite" saddened me. I thought he was saying "we're kind of pleased you decided to joinus although I wish we had hired someone else." Then I discovered that in American English "quite"sometimes means "very", while in British English it means "fairly".So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don'tjust mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures(文化).Some of these differences may be only on the surface-dress, food and hours of work-while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate(气候),while getting on with business.Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better;you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality(准时).If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in theAmerican Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hourafterwards in Italy and sometime in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word "late"because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do intheir own country.52. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______.A. the American bank didn't think much of himB. the American bank might hire another personC. it's difficult to get used to American cultureD. it's easy to misunderstand Americans53.The word "highlights" in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.A. encouragesB. helps to narrowC. increasesD. draws attention to54. According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?A. Ask the native people for help.B. Understand and accept them.C. Do things in our own way.D. Do in-depth research.55. When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.A. ItaliansB. GermansC. GreeksD. the BritishE"I didn't hear them call my name," explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (AT) as she talkedabout that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004."Are you ready?" is what she heard. Then she said, "I shook my head no, and then they said‘yes’and it was announced again."It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana----she was still on cloud nine."I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen." Present in the audience(观众)that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher.Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why herdance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete(比赛)."She's always been my role model.I've danced with her since I was six. She's been through so many difficulties and came throughthem all. I've learned to get over bad life's experiences and learned how to move on because ofher."One of those bad life's experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brotherBrad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get throughthe rough days. She said, "I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot...”As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens(青少年)about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Sheiley will continue to speak toyouth about safe driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don't letanyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it iseasy to be yourself."56.What do the words “on cloud nine” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. frightenedB. troubledC. very happyD. very angry57.Shelley takes her dance teachers as a role medel mainly because she is .A. determinedB. friendlyC. strictD. experienced58.How many children did the Hennigs have according to the text?A. 1.B. 2.C. 3.D. 4.59.What did Shelley often do after she became Miss Louisiana Teen?A.

One by one, graffiti-covered walls are being changed into outdoor art. So far, more than 1,800 murals(壁画)have been painted. Philadelphia now has more murals than any other American city.The walls that were once ugly with graffiti(涂鸦)are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art, thanks to the Mural Arts Program (MAP). Its work makes schools and public places attractive, and its citizens very proud. The program began as part of Philadelphia's Anti-Graffiti Network. Jane Golden is the MAP's artistic director. "When people ask me what our program is about," she says, "I answer them with one word: hope." Each year, the MAP offers youth art programs and workshops. Some one-time graffiti writers even help paint MAP murals.The MAP's work, says Golden, is all about developing a sense of community(社区).When a neighborhood requests a mural, the MAP works with the people there to develop a message. Some messages have been "Safe Streets," "Love and Care," and "Peace Walk."The MAP receives up to 50 requests for murals each week. Last year, the workers painted 140 murals."The making of a mural enters people's collective memory as an extraordinary, pleasant moment in neighborhood history" says Golden, who began as a muralist in Los Angeles.41.What can be the best title for the text?A. Love, from Graffiti Writers to MuralistsB. MAP, a New Company in PhiladelphiaC. Jane, an Excellent Mural ArtistD. Hope, One Wall at a Time42. What is the Mural Arts Program in Philadelphia aimed at?A. Helping the young find jobs.B. Protecting the neighborhood.C. Fighting against graffiti.D. Attracting more visitors.43.How does the MAP decide on the message for a mural?A. By having discussions with people in the community.B.By seeking advice from the city government.C.By learning from the young graffiti writers.D. By studying the history of the city.44. Which of the following words best describes the work of the MAP?A. Difficult. B.Dangerous. C. Experimental.D. Successful.For those who study the development of intelligence(智力)in the animal world, self-awareness is an important measurement. An animal that is aware(意识)of itself has a high level of intelligence.A wareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror, that is, its own reflected image(反射出的影像).Many animals fail this exercise bitterly, paying evry little attention to the reflected image. Only humans, and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins, have shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.Now another animal has joined the club. In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror self-reflection test.“We thought that elephants were the next important animal,” said Dinana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society, an author of the study with Joshua M.Plotnik and Fans B.M. de Waal of Emory University. With their large brains, Reiss said, elephants “seemed like cousins to apes and dolphins.”The researchers tested Happy, Maxine and Patty, three elephants at the Bronx Zoo.They put an 8-foot-square mirror on a wall of the animals‟play area (out of the sight of zoo visitors) and recorded what happened with cameras, including one built in the mirror.The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it, and to examine parts of their bodies.Of the three, Happy then passed the test, in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face. She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror, and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.Diana Reiss said, "We knew elephants were intelligent, but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way."45. What can mirror tests tell us about animals?A. Whether they have large brains. B.Whether they have self-awareness.C. Whether they enjoy outdoor exercises.D. Whether they enjoy playing with mirrors.46. Why does the author mention apes and dolphins in the text?A. They are most familiar to readers.B. They are big favorites with zoo visitors.C. They are included in the study by Reiss.D. They are already known to be intelligent.47. What made Happy different from Maxine and Patty?A. She used her nose to search behind the mirror.B. She recognized her own image in the mirror.C. She painted a mark on her own faceD. She found the hidden camera.Student Membership--Cambridge Arts CinemaCambridge Arts Cinema is one of the art houses in Britain and home of the internationallycelebrated Cambridge Film Festival.

I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, "Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us." That "quite" saddened me. I thought he was saying "we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else." Then I discovered that in American English "quite" sometimes means "very", while in British English it means "fairly".So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures(文化).Some of these differences may be only on the surface-dress, food and hours of work-while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate(气候),while getting on with business.Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality(准时).If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in the American Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word "late" because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.52. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______.A. the American bank didn't think much of himB. the American bank might hire another personC. it's difficult to get used to American cultureD. it's easy to misunderstand Americans53.The word "highlights" in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.A. encouragesB. helps to narrowC. increasesD. draws attention to54. According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?A. Ask the native people for help.B. Understand and accept them.C. Do things in our own way.D. Do in-depth research.55. When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.A. ItaliansB. GermansC. GreeksD. the British"I didn't hear them call my name," explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (A T) as she talked about that exc iting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004. "Are you ready?" is what she heard. Then she said, "I shook my head no, and then they said …yes‟ and it was announced again."It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana----she was still on cloud nine."I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen." Present in the audience(观众)that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher.Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, A T asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete(比赛)."She's always been my role model.I've danced with her since I was six. She's been through so many difficulties and came through them all. I've learned to get over bad life's experiences and learned how to move on because of her."One of those bad life's experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get through the rough d ays. She said, "I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot...”As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens(青少年)about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Sheiley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.When A T asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don't let anyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it is easy to be yourself."56.What do the words “on cloud nine” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. frightenedB. troubledC. very happyD. very angry57.Shelley takes her dance teachers as a role medel mainly because she is .A. determinedB. friendlyC. strictD. experienced58.How many children did the Hennigs have according to the text?A. 1.B. 2.C. 3.D. 4.59.What did Shelley often do after she became Miss Louisiana Teen?A. She visited drunken drivers.B. She gave dance performance.C. She made speeches on safe driving.D. She helped other teens with their studies.60.What suggestion does Shelley give to the teens?A. Be yourself with the support of friends.B.Meet friends whenever possible.C. Go easy on yourself and others.D.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. Women who want to succeed at work should resist the temptation to act like men, scientists have said. Studies show that ambitious women are often less likely to get ahead than those who show more female characteristics. However, if they try to adapt, promotion comes their way. The findings, which will let assertive (过分自信的) women down, suggest that the best way for a woman to succeed in a man’s w orld is to act like a lady. Past research has shownthat women with self-confidence and other characteristics linked with successful management can be put aside at work in favor of gentle types. It is thought that while such characteristics are highly praised in men, ambitious women are penalized for not being feminine enough. Instead of being seen as strong managers, ambitious women are in an unfavorable situation. In one US study, researchers explored personal details from university students applying for a summer job at a bank. A women applicant who attempted to apply for special wages to pay her transport or living costs was three and a half times less likely to get a job offer than a similar male. In fact, this kind of woman was the least likely to get taken on. The latest study set out to explore what women who are naturally assertive could do to get ahead in the workplace. Eighty young men and women completed surveys about their personality while studying in college. Around eight years later, the researchers got back in touch with them to find out how their careers were going. Some had been promoted five times, others just once or twice.

lookimpressively complicated,their design is relatively simple.Giant cablesare strung between two towers that are anchored (固定) to land on eitherside of a waterway or land gorge.The road hangs from the giant cables by suspension cables,or suspenders.Suspenders are made by weaving together thousands of thick steel strands.Even though these superstructures are built to last,many of American suspension bridges are getting old.The Golden Gate Bridge is slightly more than 70 years old.The Brooklyn Bridge in New York City celebrated its 125th birthday in 2008.Many of these superstructures are in need of super repairs.Engineers at Columbia University in New York City have set out to create a way to detect the lifespan of a suspension cable electronically.They are testing a system in which tiny sensors are embedded (嵌入) inside cable strands to monitor a suspender’s condition around the clock.Engineer Raimondo Betti and his team at Columbia built a lab last December.They will use heat lamps to simulate the temperature changes a suspender would have to endure through changing seasons.They will shower the test cable with water and road salt to see how it withstands rain and snow conditions.In addition to blasting the suspender with severe weather conditions,the engineers are also subjecting the cable to the same kind of weight of a suspender on a hightraffic bridge would have to bear.The team will record data from the sensors over the next sixmonths.After that,they will open the cable and see the extent to which the data they’ve recorded matches the actual damage to the cable.Betti says more accurate information on cable corrosion will be of great use to cities and states.Bridge owners will be able to make more informed decisions on maintenance and repair plans for bridges.1.Which of the following could be the image of the bridge described in the passage?2.In the testing system,the engineers are trying to ________.A.create real-world conditions that are as aggressive as the ones out thereB.replace old suspenders with new onesC.break the suspender apart to see the inside of itD.put as much weight as possible that the bridge can bear3.Engineers at Columbia University in New York City use new technology to ________. A.design a new suspension bridgeB.see the lifespan of big suspension bridgesC.prevent suspension bridges from corrosionD.solve the traffic delays caused by bridge maintenance4.Many suspension bridges in America are in need of super repairs because ________. A.they are too old and the style is out of dateB.many steel cables are too rustyC.they can’t meet the development of modern traffic systemD.they have withstood lots of years of wear and tear from heavy traffic and severe weather 5.The new sensor system could let engineers know ________.A.how to solve traffic problemsB.which bridge is designed bestC.when the bridge repair is necessaryD.what suspension bridges mean to a city答案11.B 2.A 3.C 4.A 5.D 6.A 7.B 8.D 9.C 10.A 11.D 12.B 13.A 14.B 15.D 16.C 17.D 18.A 19.A 20.B21.D 2.A 3.B 4.D 5.C。
