B．Some special English expressions.C．Some funny English expressions. D．Some expressions related to clothes.61．Which of the following expressions can show someone is nervous?A．Get caught with one’s pants down. B．Have ants in one’s pants.C．Wear the pants in the family. D．Burn a hole in one’s pocket.62．If we say someone has to tighten his belt，we probably mean he________.A．has done something wrong B．used to live a rich lifeC．has put on the wrong pants D．is short of money63．Someone who spends his money at the drop of a hat most probably________.A．doesn’t save money B．earns much moneyC．never wastes his money D．spends more than he earnsCIf you want to help children develop language and speech skills，UCLA researchers say，listening to what they have to say is just as important as talking to them.The effect of a conversation between a child and an adult is abou t six times as great as the effect of adult speech input (输入) alone，the researchers found.“Adults speaking to children helps language develop，but what matters much more is the interaction，”said the study’s lead author，Frederick Zimmerman，an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the University of California，Los Angeles.The researchers also found that TV viewing didn’t have much of an effect－positively or negatively－as long as i t wasn’t displacing conversati ons between an adult and a child.The UCLA study included 275 families with children between 2 months and 48 months old.They represented a variety of incomes and education.The researchers found that，in an average day，children hear about 13,000 spoken words from adults and participated in about 400 adult-child conversations a day.Assessed separately，factors po sitively associated with language development included each additional 100 conversations a day and each 1,000 word increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children.When looked at alone，TV was negatively associated with language development.But，when the three factors were analyzed together，the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children.“The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult，the better idea a parent has about where the child is，”Zimmerman said.“Although it’s mostly done unconsciously，parents will provide feedback and correct mistakes.They’ll also tailor their speech to the child.Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what they’re doing，such as，“I’m putting on your pajamas now.But give your child the opportunity to talk，hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment，”she added.“If parents can carve out some conversation time－maybe at bath time or at dinner time －that’s a wonderful thing.”64．The researchers also found that TV viewing ________.A．could have a positive effect on a child’s language developmentB．had a little effect on a child’s language developmentC．affected a child’s language development more negatively than positivelyD．affected a child’s language development both negatively and positively65．Frederick Zimmerman would probably agree that ________.A．parents should let their children talk most of the timeB．children should watch TV programs selectivelyC．the conversation between parents and children should be two­wayD．it’s no good for parents to correct their children’s mistakes when they are speaking66．We can conclude from the last paragraph that ________.A．parents should let a child repeat what he or she saysB．bath time or dinner time is the best chance for parents to talk to a childC．parent­child conversation can be carried out at any proper timeD．parents should leave a child talking alone67．What would be the best title for the passage?A．Talk with kids，not at themB．Let your children voice their own opinionsC．How to develop a child’s language abilityD．The importance of early child language developmentDThere are many differences between British English and American English.I used to teach a course about the differences between the two.We speak English on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean but we have many differences in our common language.We have examples of the same words having very d ifferent meanings，differing spellings of the same words as well as completely different words for the same things.Here are some examples.A cookie in the US is called a biscuit in the UK.A biscuit in the US is a small cake in the UK.Crisps in the UK，are known as chips，but we British people eat a plate of chips that you call fries in the US.In the UK，a pie can be made from either meat or fruit，while in the US pies are normally made from fruit；pot pies are made from meat.Most things are measured in grams and kilograms in the US，not pounds and ounces.One very obvious(明显的)difference is the side of the road we each choose to drive on.Petrol in the UK is gas in the US.The place where we fill up our cars，in the UK，is a garage；while in the US，it’s a gas station.The term garage is also used as a place to store your car next to or close by your house.In the UK we call a lorry what is known as a truck in the US.An elevator in the US is called a lift here，and the first floor in the US，is calle d the ground floor here，so many visitors get off on the wrong floor in British hotels.I could continue with this.There are countless examples of differences within our one shared language.With so many differences，no wonder it’s hard to understand each other well.68．The passage is mainly about the differences between British English and American English in________. A．vocabulary B．grammar C．sound D．spelling69．It’s implied in the passage that the author may be________.A．a driver from the USB．a cook from the USC．a teacher from the UKD．a gas station worker from the UK70．In the author’s opinion，________.A．language differences don’t affect understandingB．the same words in the two different types of English may have different spellingsC．there will be fewer differences between American and British English in the futureD．it is impossible that some Americans get off on the wrong floor in British hotels71．What can we learn from the passage?A．“Elevator”is commonly used in the UK.B．Pies mean the same thing in the UK and the US.C．In the UK，things are measured in pounds and ounces.D．British and American people drive on the same side of the road.EIs there anything more important than health？I don’t think so.You can’t be good at your studies or work when you are ill.If you have a headache，or a bad cough，if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold，I think you should go to the doctor.The doctor will examine your throat，feel your pulse，take your temperature，sound your heart and lungs.After that he will advise some treatment，or some medicine.The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.Speaking of doctor’s advice，I can’t help telling you a funny story. An old man came to see the doctor.The man was very ill.He told the doctor about his weakness，memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs.The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest.He also advised him to eat a lot of meat，drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks.In other words，the doctor advised him to follow the rule：“Eat at pleasure，drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.”The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again，he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office.He looked cheerful and happy.He thanked the doctor and said that he_had_never_felt_a_healthier_man.“But you know，doctor，”he said，“it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”72．The writer thinks that ________.A．health is more important than wealthB．work is as important as studiesC．medicine is more important than pleasureD．nothing is more important than money73．The doctor usually tells his patient what to do ________.A．without examining the patientB．after he has examined the patientC．if the patient doesn’t take medicineD．unless the patient feels pain74．The underlined part means“________”.A．he was feeling better than everB．he wasn’t a healthy manC．he was feeling worse than beforeD．he will be well again75．From the last sentence of the passage，we learn the man ________ before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.A．was a heavy smokerB．didn’t smoke so muchC．didn’t smokeD．began to learn to smoke第四部分写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节短文填词(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)In this passage, I would like to introduce my cousin Li Hua，________now is working as a village head(村长)in a faraway village in the76.____________west of China.
