However, playing sports can have __50 effects on children. It may produce feelings of poor self-respect or aggressive behavior in some children. According to research on kids and sports, 40,000,000 kids play sports in the US. Of these, 18,000,000 say they have been __51 at or called names while playing sports.

They believe children _54 _ aggressive adult behavior. This behavior is then further strengthened through both positive and negative feedback. Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them. Often these adults behave aggressively themselves, sending children the message that__55 is everything. Many parents go to children's sporting events and shout __56 _ at other players or cheer when their child behaves __57__. As well, children arc even taught that hurting other players is _ 58 or are pushed to continue playing even when they are injured _59 , the media makes violence seem exciting. Children watch adult sports games and see violent behavior replayed over and over on television.As a society, we really need to 60 this problem and do something about it. Parents and coaches _61 should act as better examples for children. They also need to teach children better__62 . They should not just cheer when children win or act aggressively.

Besides, now the school says there must be nohomework because the local secondary school can't keep up with theamount of homework given in the primary school. Can the school dothis? Puzzled DadIt can't if enough parents do something about it. It is not justschools. We live in a society which wishes to get rid of risk.However, schools should have a little common sense andcourage. Children need risk if they arc to grow up self-sufficient and confident. They need homework, too, if they are to fulfill their academic potential. Complain, loudly.I have a beautiful teenage daughter who spends an hour making up her face in front of the mirror every day. I tell her to go easy. She just gets mad or bursts into tears. How can Imake her understand she's beautiful the way she is. Plain MomYou can't. Your daughter is at the age when she's trying to look beautiful, trying on new masks. And if her friends all dress up as she docs, you're in for an extra hard time.Support her and tell her she's beautiful — even if she looks ridiculous for now.

The solution to Plain Mom's problem is to______.A. make her daughter look less ridiculousB. let her daughter dress up like her friendsC. make her daughter go to a spa every weekD. let her daughter feel herself what beauty is(B)Zoe Chambers was a successful PR (Public Relations) consultant and life was going well —she had a great job, a beautiful flat and a busy social life in London. Then one evening in June last year, she received a text message telling her she was out of work. The first two weeks were the most difficult to live through." she said. "After everything I'd done for the company, they dismissed me by text! I was so angry and I just didn't feel like looking for another job. I hated everything about the city and my life."Then, Zoe received an invitation from an old school friend, Kathy, to come and stay. Kathy and her husband, Huw, had just bought a farm in north-west Wales. Zoe jumped at the chance to spend a weekend away from London, and now, ten months later, she is still on the farm."The moment I arrived at Kathy's farm, I loved it and I knew I wanted to stay." said Zoe. "Everything about my past life suddenly seemed meaningless."Zoe has been working on the farm since October of last year and says she has no regrets. "It's a hard life, physically very tiring." she says. "In London 1 was stressed and often mentally exhausted. But this is a good, healthy tiredness. Here, all 1 need to put me in a good mood is a hot bath and one of Kathy's wonderful dinners."Zoe says she has never felt bored on the farm. Every day brings a new experience. Kathy has been leaching her how to ride a horse and she has learnt to drive a tractor. Since Christmas, she has been helping with the lambing — watching a lamb being born is unbelievable, she says, "It's one of the most moving experiences I've ever had. I could never go back to city life now."68. When working as a PR consultant in London, Zoe thought she lived a ______life.A. satisfyingB. toughC. meaninglessD. boring69.

Physically tiring but rewarding.71. Which of the following is closest to the main idea of the passage?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Where there is a will, there is a way.C. A misfortune may turn out a blessing.D. Kill two birds with one stone.(C)A study involving 8,500 teenagers from all social backgrounds found that most of them are ignorant when it comes to money. The findings, the first in a series of reports from NatWest that has started a five-year research project into teenagers and money, arc particularly worrying as this generation of young people is likely to be burdened with greater debts man any before.University tuition fees (学费)are currently capped at £3,000 annually, but this will be reviewed next year and the Government is under enormous pressure to raise the ceiling.In the research, the teenagers were presented with die terms of four different loans but 76 per cent failed to identify the cheapest. The young people also predicted that they would be earning onaverage £31.000 by the age of 25, although the average salary for those aged 22 to 29 is just £ 17,815. The teenagers expected to be in debt when they finished university or training, although half said that they assumed the debts would be less than £ 10.000. Average debts for graduates are £ 12，363.Stephen Moir, head of community investment at the Royal Bank of Scotland Group which owns NatWest, said. "The more exposed young people are to financial issues, and the younger they become aware of them, the more likely they arc to become responsible, forward-planning adults who manage their finances confidently and effectively."Ministers are deeply concerned about the financial pressures on teenagers and young people because of student loans and rising housing costs. They have just introduced new lessons in how to manage debts. Nikki Fairweather, aged 15, from St Helens, said that she had benefited from lessons on personal finance, but admitted that she still had a lot to learn about money.72. Which of the following can be found from the five-year research project?A. Students understand personal finances differently.B. University tuition fees in England have been rising.C. Teenagers tend to overestimate their future earnings.D. The students' payback ability has become a major issue.73. The phrase "to raise the ceiling" in paragraph 2 probably means "______".A. to raise the student loansB. to improve the school facilitiesC. to increase the upper limit of the tuitionD. to lift the school building roofs74. According to Stephen Moir, students_______.A. are too young 10 be exposed 10 financial issuesB. should learn 10 manage their finances wellC- should maintain a positive attitude when facing loansD. benefit a lot from lessons on personal finance75. What can we learn from the passage?A. Many British teenagers do not know money matters wellB. Teenagers in Britain are heavily burdened with debts.C. Financial planning is a required course at college.D. Young people should become responsible adults.(D)The world economy has run into a brick wall. Despite countless warnings in recent years about the need to address a potential hunger crisis in poor countries and an energy crisis worldwide, world leaders failed to think ahead. The result is a global food crisis. Wheat, corn and rice prices have more than doubled in the past two years. And oil prices have increased more than three times since the start of 2004. These food-price increases. combined with increasing energy costs, will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even affect political stability. Practical solutions to these problems do exist, but we'll have to start thinking ahead and acting globally.Here are three steps to ease the current food crisis and avoid the potential for a global crisis. The first is to promote the dramatic success of Malawi, a country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its farmers get fertilizer and seeds with highproductivity. Malawi’s harvest doubled after just one year. An international fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $10 per person annually in the rich world, or S10 billion altogether.Second, the U.S. and Europe should abandon their policies of paying partly for the change of food into biofuels. The U.S. government gives farmers a taxpayer-financed payment of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol (乙醇) changed from corn. There may be a case for biofuels produced on lands that do not produce foods — tree crops, grasses and wood products — but there's no case for the government to pay to put the world's dinner into the gas tank.Third, we urgently need to weather-proof die world's crops as soon and as effectively as possible. For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pond —which collects rainwater to be used in dry weather — can make the difference between a good harvest and a bad one. The world has already committed to establishing a Climate Adaptation hind to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care but has not yet acted upon the promise.76. An international fund based on the Malawi model would______.A. cost each of the developed countries $10 billion per yearB. aim to double the harvest in southern African countries In a yearC. decrease the food prices as well as the energy pricesD. give poor farmers access to fertilizer and highly productive seeds77. With the second step, the author expresses the idea that ______.A. it is not wise to change food crops into gasB. it is misleading to put tree crops into the gas tankC. we should get alternative forms of fuel in any wayD. biofuels should be developed on a large scale78. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. A rain-collecting pond is a simple safeguard against dry wealB. A Climate Adaptation Fund has been established to help poorC. The world has made a serious promise to build farm ponds.D. It makes a great difference whether we develop wood products or not.79. In the passage, the author calls on us to______.A. slow down but not to stop economic.B. develop tree crops, grasses and wood productsC. achieve economic growth and political stabilityD. act now so as to relieve the global food shortageSection CDirections:Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.80.The causes of eating disorders are not clear. There may be genetic or biochemical factors in some cases. There may be psychological problems from early childhood or the present (such as school or family conflicts) that trigger the problem. Often, there is the double pressure to enjoy life through food and yet remain ultra-slim. Society all around us encourages eating and drinking as main ways to enjoy life- To be popular, you are supposed to eat. eat, eat81. But in real life most people, if they keep consuming like that, just keep pulling on more and more weight They then find themselves in conflict with another dominant pressure in society — to stay slim and trim. Models in ads, even those shown eating fairy foods, are usually physically lit and quite thin. All of these pressures put teens in a terrible situation. The ".solution" that some teens choose is to deny themselves all the time so as to keep temptation away. Bui soon, hunger and food boredom lead to overeating. Over time they develop anorexia or bulimia.82. Once an eating disorder has become firmly established, there is no easy cure. Someone who's never suffered anorexia and never known an anorexic might be tempted to think. "It's simple — just tell them to eat more!" Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Even when anorexics have been brought into the hospital and arc receiving physical care, nutritional therapy, and psychiatric care, many don't improve much.83. Our society's obsession with thinness, together with a constant emphasis on the theme that rich food means pleasure, puts many teens in a difficult situation. Being drawn to overeating on the one hand and self-denial on the other can bring about anorexia or bulimia — or both. Anorexics seem to feel that no matter how much weight they lose, they are still too fat Therefore, it is important for each person in our society to try to maintain a healthy and realistic self-image. Don't compare yourself with the models and actors in the media Set your sights more realistically by comparing yourself with family and friends, if anyone.84. Self-denial is the typical first step toward an caring disorder. Eventually, desires for what you've denied yourself become unbearable, and you react with either a binge or overly fierce self-control. The answer is not of course, to eat all the snacks and treats you fancy. But 10 avoid that first step that leads to overeating, strive for a good and healthy diet Such a diet is based primarily on grain products, fruits, and vegetables, with moderate amounts of meat and dairy products and with small amounts of snacks and desserts. Research demonstrates that mis kind of diet leaves you more alert and energetic.第Ⅱ卷（45分）I.

Reading: 20%(A)It is said that in the United States many have been told that anyone can become rich and successful if he works hard and has some good luck.Yes, when one becomes rich he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That‟s what “Keeping up with the Joneses” is about. The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American by the name of Arthur Momand. Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things to keep up with their neighbours: they try to look as rich and as successful as their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping Up with the Joneses”, because “Jones”is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with the people around you. Momand‟s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. That is one reason why they read the “right” books, go to the “right” universities and eat in the “right” restaurants.Every city has an area where people want to live because others will think better of them if they do. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses, because no matter what one does, Mr Jones always seems to be ahead.65. Why, according to the passage, do many people try to keep up with the Joneses?A. Because they want to be as rich as their neighbours.B. Because they feel proud to be taken for the Joneses.C. Because they want others to know or think they are rich.D. Because they are afraid that others will know they are rich.66. Why did Arthur Momand use the name “Jones” in his stories?A. Because many rich people in the U.S. are named Jones.B. Because few rich people in the U.S. are named Jones.C. Because the name sounds funny and impressive.D. Because there are many people in the U.S. whose family name is Jones.67. What does the author mean when he says the “right” books?A. Books that other people around are reading.B. Books that teach people how to get rich and successful.C. Books by famous and successful writers.D. Very expensive books.68. What does the author mean by “Mr Jones always seems to be ahead”?A. It seems Mr Jones is always walking ahead of others.B. It seems one can never keep up with all people around.C. It seems Mr Jones is a very rich man.D. It seems one has to work very hard to get rich.69. What is the author‟s opinion?A. It is funny to try to keep up with the Joneses.B. It is necessary to keep up with the Joneses.C. It is hard to keep up with the people around you.D. It is senseless to try to keep up with the people around you.(B)A linguist, an expert on languages, is always listening, never off-duty. I invited a group of friends round to my house, telling them that I was going to record their speech. I said I was interested in their regional accents(地方口音), and that it would take only a few minutes. Thus, one evening, three people came to my house and were shown into my front room. In front of each chair there was a microphone at head height, connected to a recorder in the middle of the floor. They sat down, rather nervously, and I explained that all I wanted was for them to count from one to twenty. Then we could relax and have a drink.I turned on the recorder and each in turn counted from one to twenty in their best accents. When it was over, I turned the recorder off and brought round the drinks. The rest of the evening was spent in total relaxation. I joined them in talking and joking freely, leaving them only for a telephone call which lasted some time.Or at least that is how it would appear. For, of course, the microphones were not connected to the recorder in the middle of the room at all but to another one in the bedroom. My friends, having seen the recorder before them turned off, paid no more attention to the microphones a few inches from their mouths, thus giving excellent sound quality. It meant that I was able to get as natural a piece of talk as it would be possible to find.I should add, perhaps, that I did tell my friends what had happened to them, after the recording was over, and asked them whether it should be destroyed. None of them wanted to ——but for some years after that, it always seemed that when it came to buying drinks, it was I who paid for them. Linguistic research can be a very expensive business.70. The writer asked his friends to count from one to twenty because he ____________.A. wanted to record how they pronounced numbers in their regional accentsB. had to check if his recorder was workingC. wanted them to think that was all he wanted to recordD. wanted to discover who had the best pronunciation71. The writer left the room in the middle of the evening because _________.A. he had to make a phone callB. the phone rang in the bedroomC. he wanted the others to have a talk without himD. he didn‟t like talking with them72. The recording which the writer was able to make was ____________.A. naturalB. controlledC. unclearD. expensive73. When he told his friends what he had done, they _________.A. wanted him to destroy the recordings he had madeB. didn‟t seem to mind muchC. were angry with himD. made him buy them more drinks74. The writer recorded their talk ___________.A. on the recorder in the middle of the floorB. through hidden microphonesC. on a recorder in another roomD. in the front room( C )One Saturday night, while we were sitting around our living room with some old friends, one of them started trying to remember how long we‟d lived there.“Since 1952,” I said. “We paid off the mortgage（分期付款）eight years ago.”“What did you pay for it?”“We paid $ 29,500 in 1952.”My friend nodded knowingly and thought a minute.“I think,” he said, “that you could get $85,000 for it today.”I don‟t know why it is such a popular topic of conversation these days, but if any real estate dealers(房地产商) are reading this, I will give them some money-saving advice: don‟t waste any stamps on me with your offers to buy.Our house is not an investment. Our house is our home. We live there. It is the place we go when we don‟t feel like going anyplace. We do not plan to move.Our house gives me a simple pleasure every time I come home to it. I am warmed by some ambiance(氛围)——which perhaps is only dust, but it is our dust and I like it.There‟s been much talk of moving, usually brought on by a leak in the roof or a neighbor we don‟t like. But when anyone asks me how much I think our house is worth, I just smile. They couldn‟t buy what that house means to me for all the money in both local banks. The house is not for sale.75. The underlined word “mortgage” means a certain amount of money from _________.A. a companyB. a bankC. a friendD. the country76. According to the passage, we can learn that the house is a __________.A. careful investmentB. careless investmentC. money-losing investmentD. money-making investment77. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?A. It was not easy for the writer to pay off the mortgage.B. People often talk about buying houses.C. People never lose interest in moving.D. Some people do not get on well with their neighbors.78. The writer thinks that his house __________.A. is worth $ 25,000B. is worth $ 85,000C. is worthlessD. is priceless79. The best title for the passage would be _________.A. The Structure of My HouseB. The Value of My HouseC. The Story of My HouseD. The History of My House(D)Recently the World Health Organization announced that the disease of smallpox(天花) had almost been wiped out in most parts of the world, thanks to widespread vaccination(种牛痘). Most people are vaccinated at least once in their lives and if they wish to travel from one country to another they must be able to prove that they have had a recent vaccination. In this way the disease has been prevented from spreading and today one seldom hears of it at all.This is mainly because of the great discovery made by a village doctor, Edward Jenner, in about 1798 when he published his report of his new experiment called vaccination(from the word “vacca”meaning a cow). Jenner discovered that people who worked with cattle often suffered from a harmless disease which they caught from the cattle, but these people never seemed to get smallpox. So he experimented by putting the disease into a small opening on the arms of healthy people, and though their arms became painful for a day or two, they soon recovered and none of these people ever got smallpox.So the news of the wonderful discovery spread to other countries and people rushed to their doctors to be vaccinated. In many countries the simple way to deal with the arm was done on thousands of people, and the terrible smallpox began to disappear.80. Vaccination against smallpox has been so successful that __________.A. the discoverer made a large amount of moneyB. Dr Jenner was given a prize by the Would Health OrganizationC. smallpox has almost disappeared in most countriesD. smallpox was no longer in existence on earth81. Smallpox has been prevented from spreading through the following measures EXCEPT that _____________.A. most people were vaccinated against the disease at least onceB. people going abroad should promise not to spread the diseaseC. people traveling from one country to another must prove they are vaccinatedD. people must be vaccinated shortly before going to foreign countries82. What led Dr Jenner to experiment with vaccination was that _________.A. he wanted to make a great discovery and publish itB. vaccination could make people‟s arms safeC. he tried to cure the farmers of some disease caught from the cattleD. those who worked with cattle seemed free from getting smallpox83. The doctor‟s new discovery was called …vaccination‟ for the reason that _______.A. he discovered smallpox near a farmB. he experimented with a disease from the cattleC. he was working with cattle in the countrysideD. people got the disease of smallpox from the cattle84. The news of the discovery _________.A. caught people‟s attention from all corners of the worldB. spread far and near in the western countriesC. made people rush to Dr Jenner for vaccinationD. helped to get rid of the terrible disease of smallpox第二卷I.

Besides, now the school says there must be no homework because the local secondary school can't keep up with the amount of homework given in the primary school. Can the school do this? Puzzled DadIt can't if enough parents do something about it. It is not just schools. We live in a society which wishes to get rid of risk. However, schools should have a little common sense and courage. Children need risk if they arc to grow up self-sufficient and confident. They need homework, too, if they are to fulfill their academic potential. Complain, loudly.I have a beautiful teenage daughter who spends an hour making up her face in front of the mirror every day. I tell her to go easy. She just gets mad or bursts into tears. How can I make her understand she's beautiful the way she is. Plain MomYou can't. Your daughter is at the age when she's trying to look beautiful, trying on new masks. And if her friends all dress up as she docs, you're in for an extra hard time. Support her and tell her she's beautiful — even if she looks ridiculous for now. Then invite her to join you for a day at a spa (健康美容中心).

Then one evening in June last year, she received a text message telling her she was out of work. The first two weeks were the most difficult to live through." she said. "After everything I'd done for the company, they dismissed me by text! I was so angry and I just didn't feel like looking for another job. I hated everything about the city and my life."Then, Zoe received an invitation from an old school friend, Kathy, to come and stay. Kathy and her husband, Huw, had just bought a farm in north-west Wales. Zoe jumped at the chance to spenda weekend away from London, and now, ten months later, she is still on the farm."The moment I arrived at Kathy's farm, I loved it and I knew I wanted to stay." said Zoe. "Everything about my past life suddenly seemed meaningless."Zoe has been working on the farm since October of last year and says she has no regrets. "It's a hard life, physically very tiring." she says. "In London 1 was stressed and often mentally exhausted. But this is a good, healthy tiredness. Here, all 1 need to put me in a good mood is a hot bath and one of Kathy's wonderful dinners."Zoe says she has never felt bored on the farm. Every day brings a new experience. Kathy has been leaching her how to ride a horse and she has learnt to drive a tractor. Since Christmas, she has been helping with the lambing — watching a lamb being born is unbelievable, she says, "It's one of the most moving experiences I've ever had. I could never go back to city life now."68. When working as a PR consultant in London, Zoe thought she lived a ______life.A. satisfyingB. toughC. meaninglessD. boring69.

A misfortune may turn out a blessing.D. Kill two birds with one stone.(C)A study involving 8,500 teenagers from all social backgrounds found that most of them are ignorant when it comes to money. The findings, the first in a series of reports from NatWest that has started a five-year research project into teenagers and money, arc particularly worrying as this generation of young people is likely to be burdened with greater debts man any before. University tuition fees (学费) are currently capped at £3,000 annually, but this will be reviewed next year and the Government is under enormous pressure to raise the ceiling.In the research, the teenagers were presented with die terms of four different loans but 76 per cent failed to identify the cheapest. The young people also predicted that they would be earning on average £31.000 by the age of 25, although the average salary for those aged 22 to 29 is just £ 17,815. The teenagers expected to be in debt when they finished university or training, although half said that they assumed the debts would be less than £ 10.000. Average debts for graduates are £ 12，363.Stephen Moir, head of community investment at the Royal Bank of Scotland Group which owns NatWest, said. "The more exposed young people are to financial issues, and the younger they become aware of them, the more likely they arc to become responsible, forward-planning adults who manage their finances confidently and effectively."Ministers are deeply concerned about the financial pressures on teenagers and young people because of student loans and rising housing costs. They have just introduced new lessons in how to manage debts. Nikki Fairweather, aged 15, from St Helens, said that she had benefited from lessons on personal finance, but admitted that she still had a lot to learn about money.72. Which of the following can be found from the five-year research project?A. Students understand personal finances differently.B. University tuition fees in England have been rising.C. Teenagers tend to overestimate their future earnings.D. The students' payback ability has become a major issue.73. The phrase "to raise the ceiling" in paragraph 2 probably means "______".A. to raise the student loansB. to improve the school facilitiesC. to increase the upper limit of the tuitionD. to lift the school building roofs74. According to Stephen Moir, students_______.A. are too young 10 be exposed 10 financial issuesB. should learn 10 manage their finances wellC- should maintain a positive attitude when facing loansD. benefit a lot from lessons on personal finance75. What can we learn from the passage?A. Many British teenagers do not know money matters wellB. Teenagers in Britain are heavily burdened with debts.C. Financial planning is a required course at college.D. Young people should become responsible adults.(D)The world economy has run into a brick wall. Despite countless warnings in recent years about the need to address a potential hunger crisis in poor countries and an energy crisis worldwide, world leaders failed to think ahead. The result is a global food crisis. Wheat, corn and rice prices have more than doubled in the past two years. And oil prices have increased more than three times since the start of 2004. These food-price increases. combined with increasing energy costs, will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even affect political stability. Practical solutions to these problems do exist, but we'll have to start thinking ahead and acting globally.Here are three steps to ease the current food crisis and avoid the potential for a global crisis. The first is to promote the dramatic success of Malawi, a country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its farmers get fertilizer and seeds with high productivity. Malawi’s harvest doubled after just one year. An in ternational fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $10 per person annually in the rich world, or S10 billion altogether. Second, the U.S. and Europe should abandon their policies of paying partly for the change of food into biofuels. The U.S. government gives farmers a taxpayer-financed payment of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol (乙醇) changed from corn. There may be a case for biofuels produced on lands that do not produce foods — tree crops, grasses and wood products — but there's no case for the government to pay to put the world's dinner into the gas tank.Third, we urgently need to weather-proof die world's crops as soon and as effectively as possible.For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pond — which collects rainwater to be used in dry weather — can make the difference between a good harvest and a bad one. The world has already committed to establishing a Climate Adaptation hind to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care but has not yet acted upon the promise.76. An international fund based on the Malawi model would______.A. cost each of the developed countries $10 billion per yearB. aim to double the harvest in southern African countries In a yearC. decrease the food prices as well as the energy pricesD. give poor farmers access to fertilizer and highly productive seeds77. With the second step, the author expresses the idea that ______.A. it is not wise to change food crops into gasB. it is misleading to put tree crops into the gas tankC. we should get alternative forms of fuel in any wayD. biofuels should be developed on a large scale78. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. A rain-collecting pond is a simple safeguard against dry wealB. A Climate Adaptation Fund has been established to help poorC. The world has made a serious promise to build farm ponds.D. It makes a great difference whether we develop wood products or not.79. In the passage, the author calls on us to______.A. slow down but not to stop economic.B. develop tree crops, grasses and wood productsC. achieve economic growth and political stabilityD. act now so as to relieve the global food shortageSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.80.The causes of eating disorders are not clear. There may be genetic or biochemical factors in some cases. There may be psychological problems from early childhood or the present (such as school or family conflicts) that trigger the problem. Often, there is the double pressure to enjoy life through food and yet remain ultra-slim. Society all around us encourages eating and drinking as main ways to enjoy life- To be popular, you are supposed to eat. eat, eat81.But in real life most people, if they keep consuming like that, just keep pulling on more and more weight They then find themselves in conflict with another dominant pressure in society — to stay slim and trim. Models in ads, even those shown eating fairy foods, are usually physically lit and quite thin. All of these pressures put teens in a terrible situation. The ".solution" that some teens choose is to deny themselves all the time so as to keep temptation away. Bui soon, hunger and food boredom lead to overeating. Over time they develop anorexia or bulimia.82.Once an eating disorder has become firmly established, there is no easy cure. Someone who's never suffered anorexia and never known an anorexic might be tempted to think. "It's simple —just tell them to eat more!" Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Even when anorexics have been brought into the hospital and arc receiving physical care, nutritional therapy, and psychiatric care, many don't improve much.83.Our society's obsession with thinness, together with a constant emphasis on the theme that rich food means pleasure, puts many teens in a difficult situation. Being drawn to overeating on the one hand and self-denial on the other can bring about anorexia or bulimia — or both. Anorexics seem to feel that no matter how much weight they lose, they are still too fat Therefore, it is important for each person in our society to try to maintain a healthy and realistic self-image. Don't compare yourself with the models and actors in the media Set your sights more realistically by comparing yourself with family and friends, if anyone.84.Self-denial is the typical first step toward an caring disorder. Eventually, desires for what you've denied yourself become unbearable, and you react with either a binge or overly fierce self-control. The answer is not of course, to eat all the snacks and treats you fancy. But 10 avoid that first step that leads to overeating, strive for a good and healthy diet Such a diet is based primarily on grain products, fruits, and vegetables, with moderate amounts of meat and dairy products and with small amounts of snacks and desserts. Research demonstrates that mis kind of diet leaves you more alert and energetic.第Ⅱ卷（45分）I.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货), saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, and then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete strangerwould go out of their way for someone they have never met before.People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity(人性) as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.58.

This means they eat less of certain foods, especially fats and sugars. Other people exercise with special equipment, take diet pills or even have operations. Losing weight is hard work and it can also cost a lot of money. So why do so many people in the United States want to lose weight?Many people in the United States worry about not looking young and attractive. For many people, looking good also means being thin. Other people worry about their health. Many doctors say being overweight is not healthy. But, are Americans really fat?Almost 30 million Americans weigh at least 20 percent more than their ideal(理想的) weight. In fact, the United States is the most overweigh t country in the world. “The stored fat of adult Americans weighs 2.3 trillion pounds,’ says University of Massachusetts anthropologist(人类学家) George, Armelagos. He says burning off that stored energy would produce enough power for 900,000 cars to go 12,000 miles.Losing weight is hard work, but most people want to find a fast and easy way to take off fat. Bookstores sell lots of diet books. These books tell readers how to lose weight. Each year, a lot of new books like these are written. Each one promises to get rid of fat.65. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. there is not a sure way of losing weightB. losing weight is an easy jobC. taking diet pills is the best way to lose weightD. people think too much of their appearance66.

But jungles contain wonders as well as danger and with good guides, some education and a few precautions(预防措施), the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated. “Kids have to be on-line. If we tell our kids they can’t be allowed to surf the Internet, we’re cutting them off from their future,” said an expert.Most kids have started to learn to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way would be to use what is known as a “content screener”. But this can’t be wholly reliable, and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet.A few other tips:◆Don’t put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where mum or dad can keep an eye on things. Thatalso makes the Internet more of a family activity.◆Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make on-1ine.◆Tell your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially details like address and phonenumber.And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.69. What is the best way for parents to protect children from improper material on the Internet according to thepassage?A. To buy some search engines for children.B. To be nearby when they are surfing the Internet.C. To fix a content screener on the computer.D. To talk to the children and help them to tell right from wrong.70. Which of the following is right according to the passage?A. Surfing the Internet is the best way of educating children.B. Using a content screener is most reliable for keeping children from access to unsafe materials.C. Searching engines can replace parents to select materials fit for them.D. Children’s not having chances to go to the Internet may block their progress.71. According to the passage, we can infer that ____________.A. software fit for children wants programmingB. the Internet may contain a lot of harmful sitesC. the Internet should be bannedD. a child who is on-line is always dangerous72. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage?A. Opposing children’s on-lineB. Internet in AmericaC. Helping children going on-lineD. Dangers on the Internet第二卷I.

＜π2)是偶函数，可排除B 、D ，由cos x ≤1⇒ln cos x ≤0排除C ，故选：A ．【点评】本小题主要考查复合函数的图象识别．属于基础题．三、解答题（共5题，共计44分） 16．解方程：log 2（x ﹣3）−log 12x =2．【分析】由已知中log 2（x ﹣3）−log 12x =2，由对数的运算性质，我们可得x 2﹣3x ﹣4＝0，解方程后，检验即可得到答案．解：若log 2（x ﹣3）−log 12x =2．则x 2﹣3x ﹣4＝0，… 解得x ＝4，或x ＝﹣1 经检验：方程的解为x ＝4．…【点评】本题考查的知识点是对数的运算性质，其中利用对数的运算性质，将已知中的方程转化为整式方程是解答醒的关键，解答时，易忽略对数的真数部分大于0，而错解为4，或﹣1．17．已知−π2＜x ＜0，则sin x +cos x =15．（I ）求sin x ﹣cos x 的值；（Ⅱ）求3sin 2x 2−2sin x 2cos x 2+cos 2x2tanx+cotx的值．【分析】（Ⅰ）把sin x +cos x =15两边平方求得sin x cos x 的值，进而根据∵（sin x ﹣cos x ）2＝1﹣2sin x cos x 求得（sin x ﹣cos x ）2＝，进而根据−π2＜x ＜0确定sin x ﹣cos x 的正负，求得答案．（Ⅱ）先把原式中的正切转换成弦，进而根据倍角公式化简整理，把（1）中求得的sin x cos x 和sin x ﹣cos x 代入即可得到答案．解：（Ⅰ）由sin x +cos x =15，平方得sin 2x +2sin x cos x +cos 2x =125，即2sin x cos x =−2425． ∵（sin x ﹣cos x ）2＝1﹣2sin x cos x =4925．又∵−π2＜x ＜0，∴sin x ＜0，cos x ＞0，sin x ﹣cos x ＜0，故sin x ﹣cos x =−75．（Ⅱ）3sin 2x 2−2sin x 2cos x 2+cos 2x 2tanx+cotx=2sin 2x 2−sinx+1sinx cosx +cosx sinx =sin x cos x （2﹣cos x ﹣sin x ）＝（−1225）×（2−15）=−108125【点评】本题主要考查了同角三角函数基本关系的应用．要特别注意函数值的正负号的判定．18．如图，甲船以每小时30√2海里的速度向正北方向航行，乙船按固定方向匀速直线航行，当甲船位于A 1处时，乙船位于甲船的北偏西105°的方向B 1处，此时两船相距20海里．当甲船航行20分钟到达A 2处时，乙船航行到甲船的北偏西120°方向的B 2处，此时两船相距10√2海里，问乙船每小时航行多少海里？【分析】连接A 1B 2，依题意可知A 2B 2，求得A 1A 2的值，推断出△A 1A 2B 2是等边三角形，进而求得∠B 1A 1B 2，在△A 1B 2B 1中，利用余弦定理求得B 1B 2的值，进而求得乙船的速度．解：如图，连接A 1B 2，A 2B 2=10√2，A 1A 2=2060×30√2=10√2，△A 1A 2B 2是等边三角形，∠B 1A 1B 2＝105°﹣60°＝45°，在△A 1B 2B 1中，由余弦定理得B 1B 22＝A 1B 12+A 1B 22﹣2A 1B 1•A 1B 2cos45°=202+(10√2)2−2×20×10√2×√22=200，B 1B 2=10√2．因此乙船的速度的大小为10√220×60=30√2．答：乙船每小时航行30√2海里．【点评】本题主要考查了解三角形的实际应用．要能综合运用余弦定理，正弦定理等基础知识，考查了综合分析问题和解决实际问题的能力．19．已知函数f(x)=2sin 2(π4+x)−√3cos2x ，x ∈R ．（1）求f （x ）的最小正周期；（2）求使f （x ）≥0成立的x 的取值集合；（3）若不等式|f （x ）﹣m |＜2在x ∈[π4，π2]上恒成立，求实数m 的取值范围．【分析】利用二倍角的余弦函数公式化简函数解析式中的第一项，然后给化简后的后两项提取2，利用两角和与差的正弦函数公式及特殊角的三角函数值化为一个角的正弦函数，（1）由化简后的解析式，找出ω的值，代入周期公式T =2πω，即可求出函数的最小正周期；（2）令化简后的解析式大于等于0，求出正弦函数的值域，根据正弦函数的图象与性质，列出关于x 的不等式，求出不等式的解集即可得到满足题意的集合；（3）由x 的范围，求出这个角的范围，利用正弦函数的值域得出函数f （x ）的最大值及最小值，不等式|f （x ）﹣m |＜2在x ∈[π4，π2]上恒成立，即f （x ）﹣2＜m ＜f （x ）+2在x ∈[π4，π2]上恒成立，根据函数的最值，即可得到m 的范围．解：f(x)=[1−cos(π2+2x)]−√3cos2x （1分）=1+sin2x −√3cos2x=2sin(2x −π3)+1，（1）T =2π2=π；（2）2sin(2x −π3)+1≥0⇒sin(2x −π3)≥−12∴2kπ−π6≤2x−π3≤2kπ+5π6，k∈Z∴kπ+π12≤x≤kπ+7π12，k∈Z，∴使f（x）≥0成立的x的取值集合为{x|kπ+π12≤x≤kπ+7π12，k∈Z}；（3）∵x∈[π4，π2]，∴2x−π3∈[π6，2π3]，∴2≤1+2sin(2x−π3)≤3，∴[f（x）]max＝3，[f（x）]min＝2，∴|f（x）﹣m|＜2在x∈[π4，π2]上恒成立，即f（x）﹣2＜m＜f（x）+2在x∈[π4，π2]上恒成立，∴[f（x）]max﹣2＜m＜[f（x）]min+2，∴1＜m＜4，∴实数m的取值范围为[1，4]．【点评】此题考查了三角函数的周期性及其求法，正弦函数的定义域及值域，正弦函数的单调性，以及不等式恒成立满足的条件，利用三角函数的恒等变形把函数解析式化为一个角的正弦函数是本题的突破点．20．我们把平面直角坐标系中，函数y＝f（x），x∈D上的点P（x，y），满足x∈N*，y∈N*的点称为函数y＝f（x）的“正格点”．（1）请你选取一个m的值，使对函数f（x）＝sin mx，x∈R的图象上有正格点，并写出函数的一个正格点坐标（2）若函数f（x）＝sin mx，x∈R，m∈（1，2），与函数g（x）＝lgx的图象有正格点交点，求m的值，并写出两个函数图象的所有交点个数．（3）对于（2）中的m值，函数f（x）＝sin x，x∈[0，59]时，不等式log a x＞sin mx恒成立，求实数a的取值范围．【分析】（1）取m=π2，可求相应正格点坐标；（2）作出两个函数图象，利用图象可知正格点交点只有一个点为（10，1），从而有2kπ+π2 =10m，m=4k+120π，(k∈z)，m∈(1，2)，所以m=9π20，故可解；（3）利用（2）的图象，分a＞1、0＜a＜1进行讨论．解：（1）若取m=π2时，正格点坐标（1，1），（5，1）（9，1）等（答案不唯一）…（2）作出两个函数图象，可知函数f（x）＝sin mx，x∈R，与函数g（x）＝lgx的图象有正格点交点只有一个点为（10，1）∴2kπ+π2=10m，m=4k+120π，(k∈z)，m∈(1，2)，∴m=9π20．…根据图象可知：两个函数图象的所有交点个数为5个．（注意：最后两个点非常接近，几乎粘合在一起．）…（3）由（2）知f(x)=sin 9π20x，x∈[0，59]，∴①当a＞1时，不等式log a x＞sin mx不能成立…②当0＜a＜1时，由图（2）可知loga 59＞sinπ4=√22，∴(59)√2＜a＜1⋯【点评】本题考查新定义，考查数形结合的思想，正确理解新定义时关键．。

However, playing sports can have __50 effects on children. It may produce feelings of poor self-respect or aggressive behavior in some children. According to research on kids and sports,40,000,000 kids play sports in the US. Of these, 18,000,000 say they have been __51 at or called names while playing sports. This leaves many children with a bad __52 of sports. They think sports are just too aggressive.Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches, are the main _53 of too much aggression ill children's sports. They believe children _54 _ aggressive adult behavior. This behavior is then further strengthened through both positive and negative feedback. Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them. Often these adults behave aggressively themselves, sending children the message that__55 is everything. Many parents go to children's sporting events and shout __56 _ at other players or cheer when their child behaves __57__. As well, children arc even taught that hurting other players is _ 58 or are pushed to continue playing even when they are injured _59 , the media makes violence seem exciting. Children watch adult sports games and see violent behavior replayed over and over on television.As a society, we really need to 60 this problem and do something about it. Parents and coaches _61 should act as better examples for children. They also need to teach children better__62 . They should not just cheer when children win or act aggressively. They should teach children to __63 _ , themselves whether they win or not. Besides, children should not be allowed to continue to play when they are injured. If adults allow children to play when injured, this gives the message that __64 is not as important as winning.50. A. restrictive B. negative C. active D. instructive51.

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 you have just read.(A)ASK LASKASYOU’VE GOT QUESTIONS, SHE'S GOT ANSWERSMy children go to a primary school where they are not allowed to play football in the playground for fear that a child might be hurt. Besides, now the school says there must be no homework because the local secondary school can't keep up with the amount of homework given in the primary school. Can the school do this? Puzzled DadIt can't if enough parents do something about it. It is not just schools. We live in a society which wishes to get rid of risk. However, schools should have a little common sense and courage. Children need risk if they arc to grow up self-sufficient and confident. They need homework, too, if they are to fulfill their academic potential. Complain, loudly.I have a beautiful teenage daughter who spends an hour making up her face in front of the mirror every day. I tell her to go easy. She just gets mad or bursts into tears. How can I make her understand she's beautiful the way she is. Plain MomYou can't. Your daughter is at the age when she's trying to look beautiful, trying on new masks. And if her friends all dress up as she docs, you're in for an extra hard time. Support her and tell her she's beautiful — even if she looks ridiculous for now. Then invite her to join you for a day at a spa (健康美容中心). Let her try various looks until she's comfortable in her own skin.65. Why are the children not allowed to play football in the playground?A. The school is afraid that children might be injured.B. The school is not sensible and confident.C. The children don't have enough time to do homework.D. The children may fail to fulfill their academic potential.66. What disturbs Plain Mom is that her daughter______.A. becomes madB. cries a lotC. spends much rime before the mirrorD. is not beautiful enough67. The solution to Plain Mom's problem is to______.A. make her daughter look less ridiculousB. let her daughter dress up like her friendsC. make her daughter go to a spa every weekD. let her daughter feel herself what beauty is(B)Zoe Chambers was a successful PR (Public Relations) consultant and life was going well —she had a great job, a beautiful flat and a busy social life in London. Then one evening in June last year, she received a text message telling her she was out of work. The first two weeks were the most difficult to live through." she said. "After everything I'd done for the company, they dismissed me by text! I was so angry and I just didn't feel like looking for another job. I hated everything about the city and my life."Then, Zoe received an invitation from an old school friend, Kathy, to come and stay. Kathy and her husband, Huw, had just bought a farm in north-west Wales. Zoe jumped at the chance to spend a weekend away from London, and now, ten months later, she is still on the farm. "The moment I arrived at Kathy's farm, I loved it and I knew I wanted to stay." said Zoe. "Everything about my past life suddenly seemed meaningless."Zoe has been working on the farm since October of last year and says she has no regrets. "It's a hard life, physically very tiring." she says. "In London 1 was stressed and often mentally exhausted. But this is a good, healthy tiredness. Here, all 1 need to put me in a good mood is a hot bath and one of Kathy's wonderful dinners."Zoe says she has never felt bored on the farm. Every day brings a new experience. Kathy has been leaching her how to ride a horse and she has learnt to drive a tractor. Since Christmas, she has been helping with the lambing — watching a lamb being born is unbelievable, she says, "It's one of the most moving experiences I've ever had. I could never go back to city life now."68. When working as a PR consultant in London, Zoe thought she lived a ______life.A. satisfyingB. toughC. meaninglessD. boring69. The most important reason why Zoe went to visit Kathy's farm is that______.A. Zoe lost her job as a PR consultantB. Kathy persuaded her to do soC. Zoe got tired of the city lifeD. Zoe loved Wales more than London70. How docs Zoe feel about the country life according to the passage?A. Tiresome and troublesome.B. Romantic and peacefulC. Mentally exhausting but healthyD. Physically tiring but rewarding.71. Which of the following is closest to the main idea of the passage?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Where there is a will, there is a way.C. A misfortune may turn out a blessing.D. Kill two birds with one stone.(C)A study involving 8,500 teenagers from all social backgrounds found that most of them are ignorant when it comes to money. The findings, the first in a series of reports from NatWest that has started a five-year research project into teenagers and money, arc particularly worrying as this generation of young people is likely to be burdened with greater debts man any before.University tuition fees (学费) are currently capped at £3,000 annually, but this will be reviewed next year and the Government is under enormous pressure to raise the ceiling.In the research, the teenagers were presented with die terms of four different loans but 76 per cent failed to identify the cheapest. The young people also predicted that they would be earning on average £ 31.000 by the age of 25, although the average salary for those aged 22 to 29 is just £ 17,815. The teenagers expected to be in debt when they finished university or training, although half said that they assumed the debts would be less than £ 10.000. Average debts for graduates are £ 12，363.Stephen Moir, head of community investment at the Royal Bank of Scotland Group which owns NatWest, said. "The more exposed young people are to financial issues, and the younger they become aware of them, the more likely they arc to become responsible, forward-planning adults who manage their finances confidently and effectively."Ministers are deeply concerned about the financial pressures on teenagers and young people because of student loans and rising housing costs. They have just introduced new lessons in how to manage debts. Nikki Fairweather, aged 15, from St Helens, said that she had benefited from lessons on personal finance, but admitted that she still had a lot to learn about money.72. Which of the following can be found from the five-year research project?A. Students understand personal finances differently.B. University tuition fees in England have been rising.C. Teenagers tend to overestimate their future earnings.D. The students' payback ability has become a major issue.73.

According to Stephen Moir, students_______.A. are too young 10 be exposed 10 financial issuesB. should learn 10 manage their finances wellC- should maintain a positive attitude when facing loansD. benefit a lot from lessons on personal finance75. What can we learn from the passage?A. Many British teenagers do not know money matters wellB. Teenagers in Britain are heavily burdened with debts.C. Financial planning is a required course at college.D. Young people should become responsible adults.(D)The world economy has run into a brick wall. Despite countless warnings in recent years about the need to address a potential hunger crisis in poor countries and an energy crisis worldwide, world leaders failed to think ahead. The result is a global food crisis. Wheat, corn and rice prices have more than doubled in the past two years. And oil prices have increased more than three times since the start of 2004. These food-price increases. combined with increasing energy costs, will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even affect political stability. Practical solutions to these problems do exist, but we'll have to start thinking ahead and acting globally.Here are three steps to ease the current food crisis and avoid the potential for a global crisis. The first is to promote the dramatic success of Malawi, a country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its farmers get fertilizer and seeds with high productivity. Malawi’s harvest doubled after just one year. An international fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $10 per person annually in the rich world, or S10 billion altogether.Second, the U.S. and Europe should abandon their policies of paying partly for the change of food into biofuels. The U.S. government gives farmers a taxpayer-financed payment of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol (乙醇) changed from corn. There may be a case for biofuels produced on lands that do not produce foods — tree crops, grasses and wood products — but there's no case for the government to pay to put the world's dinner into the gas tank.Third, we urgently need to weather-proof die world's crops as soon and as effectively as possible. For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pond — which collects rainwater to be used in dry weather — can make the difference between a good harvest and a bad one. The world has already committed to establishing a Climate Adaptation hind to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care but has not yet acted upon the promise.76. An international fund based on the Malawi model would______.A. cost each of the developed countries $10 billion per yearB. aim to double the harvest in southern African countries In a yearC. decrease the food prices as well as the energy pricesD. give poor farmers access to fertilizer and highly productive seeds77. With the second step, the author expresses the idea that ______.A. it is not wise to change food crops into gasB. it is misleading to put tree crops into the gas tankC. we should get alternative forms of fuel in any wayD. biofuels should be developed on a large scale78. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. A rain-collecting pond is a simple safeguard against dry wealB. A Climate Adaptation Fund has been established to help poorC. The world has made a serious promise to build farm ponds.D. It makes a great difference whether we develop wood products or not.79. In the passage, the author calls on us to______.A. slow down but not to stop economic.B. develop tree crops, grasses and wood productsC. achieve economic growth and political stabilityD. act now so as to relieve the global food shortageSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.80.The causes of eating disorders are not clear. There may be genetic or biochemical factors in some cases. There may be psychological problems from early childhood or the present (such as school or family conflicts) that trigger the problem. Often, there is the double pressure to enjoy life through food and yet remain ultra-slim. Society all around us encourages eating and drinking as main ways to enjoy life- To be popular, you are supposed to eat. eat, eat81.But in real life most people, if they keep consuming like that, just keep pulling on more and more weight They then find themselves in conflict with another dominant pressure in society —to stay slim and trim. Models in ads, even those shown eating fairy foods, are usually physically lit and quite thin. All of these pressures put teens in a terrible situation. The".solution" that some teens choose is to deny themselves all the time so as to keep temptation away. Bui soon, hunger and food boredom lead to overeating. Over time they develop anorexia or bulimia.82.Once an eating disorder has become firmly established, there is no easy cure. Someone who's never suffered anorexia and never known an anorexic might be tempted to think. "It's simple — just tell them to eat more!" Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Even when anorexics have been brought into the hospital and arc receiving physical care, nutritional therapy, and psychiatric care, many don't improve much.83.Our society's obsession with thinness, together with a constant emphasis on the theme that rich food means pleasure, puts many teens in a difficult situation. Being drawn to overeating on the one hand and self-denial on the other can bring about anorexia or bulimia — or both. Anorexics seem to feel that no matter how much weight they lose, they are still too fat Therefore, it is important for each person in our society to try to maintain a healthy and realistic self-image. Don't compare yourself with the models and actors in the media Set your sights more realistically by comparing yourself with family and friends, if anyone.84.Self-denial is the typical first step toward an caring disorder. Eventually, desires for whatyou've denied yourself become unbearable, and you react with either a binge or overly fierce self-control. The answer is not of course, to eat all the snacks and treats you fancy. But 10 avoid that first step that leads to overeating, strive for a good and healthy diet Such a diet is based primarily on grain products, fruits, and vegetables, with moderate amounts of meat and dairy products and with small amounts of snacks and desserts. Research demonstrates that mis kind of diet leaves you more alert and energetic.第Ⅱ卷（45分）I.

There is one extra word you do not need.Life on land probably began about 430 million years ago, though it has existed in the water for perhaps as much as 3,000 million years. When we think of the first 41 on land, we 42 think of strange animals coming out of the oceans, but, in fact, no animals could have been living if plants had not been on land first. Plants had to be on land before animals arrived. They 43 the first land animals with the 44 and food necessary, since they ---the plants are the only form of life that is able to get and store 45 .The first plants to exist out of the water were probably certain kinds of algae （藻类）which were followed by other plants that grew close to the ground and needed water in which to 46 . Once the move to land has been made, however, evolution took place quickly. By the end of 100 million years, plants had developed their 47 , and some have got tree-like forms since height was very important in 48 sunlight. About 300 million years ago, much of the world was 49 with forests of huge trees. In most ways they were like modern trees. They had roots, leaves,wood, but mostly they had not developed seeds.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrases that best fits the context.Choosing a husband or wife is one of the most important decisions in a person‟s life because a good marriage can mean the difference between a happy and an unhappy life. In many cultures, young men and women choose their own marriage 50 . In some cultures, on the other hand, parents arrange their children‟s marriages. 51 arranged marriages have both advantages and disadvantages. One advantage to having parents arrange a marriage is 52 security. Of course, money doesn‟t53 bring happiness, but a lack of money certainly causes 54 in any relationship. A second advantage of an arranged marriage is that parents may make a better 55 than their children. They are not only 56 but also wiser. Also, parents have been married, therefore, they know better what qualities are desirable in a spouse. 57 , parents may be better judges of character than young people, who often let 58 influence their judgment. In59 , arranged marriages may be happy because parents choose with their heads, not with their60 .On the other hand, arranged marriages may have some disadvantages. One 61 disadvantage is that parents may make a poor choice and the young couple may never be 62 together. A second obvious disadvantage is that a young man or woman may already have fallen in love with someone else. If the parents force him or her to marry their choice, the result will be 63 unhappy people.In conclusion, neither an arranged marriage nor a marriage for 64 is necessarily going to be happy. Both kinds of marriages take work, patience and perhaps a little bit of luck.50. A. couple B. parents C. partners D. date51. A. So B. Such C. Some D. Other52. A. financial B. happiness C. time D. future53. A. quickly B. necessarily C. highly D. slowly54. A. danger B. stress C. burden D. joy55. A. living B. collection C. choice D. family56.

A. money B. others C. help D. loveSection BDirections: Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. 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 you have just read.AThere was a story many years ago of a school teacher---- Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn‟t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him.Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death ofhis mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present, too. It was his mother‟s perfume（香水）.Teddy said, “Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.” After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children.Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. The boy‟s mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved. By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class.Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy. He wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life. He went to college. Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed, …Theodore F. Stoddard, M.D‟ （医学博士）.The story doesn‟t end there. On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson‟s ear, “Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me. You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.”Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn‟t know how to teach unt il I met you”.（）65. What did Mrs. Thompson do on the first day of school?A. She made Teddy feel ashamed.B. She asked the children to play with Teddy.C. She changed Teddy‟s seat to the front row.D. She told the class something untrue about herself.（）66. What did Mrs. Thompson find out about Teddy?A. He often told lies.B. He was good at mathematics.C. He needed motherly care.D. He enjoyed playing with others.（）67. In what way did Mrs. Thompson change?A. She taught fewer school subjects.B. She became stricter with her students.C. She no longer liked her job as a teacher.D. She cared more about educating students.（）68. Why did Teddy thank Mrs. Thompson at his wedding?A. She had kept in touch with him.B. She had given him encouragement.C. She had sent him Christmas presents.D. She had taught him how to judge people.BIn different countries around the world, people become “adults” at different ages. Being an adult means having the right to do certain things such as vote, get married, or get a license to drive. It also means accepting the responsibilities that accompany these rights.In many countries, sixteen or eighteen is the age at which a person becomes an adult. Young men and women at this age can get a part-time job, and begin to receive an income of their own. In many parts of North America, sixteen is also the age when one can obtain a driver‟s license; in England, it is seventeen.There are responsibilities that go along with both of these rights. Getting a part-time job means that you have to pay income tax. Driving a car demands that you follow certain rules and regulations such as getting and paying for insurance to drive.V oting is another right that marks the passage into adulthood for many young people. In the United States, Canada and the U.K, young people have the right to vote at the age of eighteen .With this right also comes responsibility. For young people to use their right to vote wisely, they must have an understanding of the needs of society , and they must also learn how politics works.A group of teenagers in Canada want the Canadian voting laws changed. They think the people should be able to vote at the age of sixteen. They argue that if teenagers at sixteen are old enough to get part-time jobs, pay taxes, and drive, they are also old enough to vote in elections.An organization in the U.S believes that the government should allow its citizens the greatest amount of freedom possible ----- as long as this doesn‟t jeopardize the public‟s safety. This organization believes that all laws based on ages should be eliminated, and that people should be able to get a part-time job, a driver‟s license, get married and vote at any age.Not everyone would agree that it is a good idea to give all of these rights---and the responsibilities that accompany them --- to people when they are too young. The question is: How young is too young?（）69.The passage is mainly about ___________.A. when young people can get married.B. the age when people have certain adult rights.C. how old someone must be in order to voteD. what responsibility an adult must bear（）70.What an adult has the right to do among the following is to _______.A. get a part-time job.B. get a passportC. give the vote only for the president of the country.D. observe the law（）71.The underlined word jeopardize in the last paragraph but one means __________.A. maintainB. provideC. guaranteeD. harm（）72.The reason why a person who is too young to enjoy the adult rights is possibly that______..A. people are of the same about how old is old enough.B. people agree upon how young is too young.C. he cannot bear the responsibilities that accompany the rights he hasD. he can perform the adult rights as well as adults.CAttractions in WisconsinWisconsin Historical Museum30 N.

But early horses weren‟t tame（驯服的）enough to perform these kinds of tasks. Scientists think the firstinteractions humans had with horses were far different from those today.Thousands of years ago, people killed the wild horses that lived around them for food. Over time, people began to catch the animals and raise them. This was the first step in domestication.As people began to tame and ride horses, they chose to keep those animals that had more desirable characteristics. For example, people may have chosen to keep horses that had a gentle personality so they could be ridden more easily. People who used horses to pull heavy loads would have chosen to keep strong animals. Characteristics like strength are partly controlled by the animals‟ genes. So as the domesticated horses reproduced, they passed the characteristics on to their young. Each new generation of horses would show more of these chosen characteristics.Modern-day horse breeds come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. This variety didn‟t exist in the horse population before domestication. The Stetland horse is one of the smallest breeds---typically reaching only one meter tall. With short, strong legs, the animals were bred to pull coal out of mine shafts （矿井）with low ceilings. Huge horses like the Clydesdale came on the scene around 1700. people bred these heavy tall horses to pull large vehicles used for carrying heave loads.The domestication of horses has had great effects on societies. For example, horses were important tools in the advancement of modern agriculture. Using them to pull ploughs and carry heavy loads allowed people to farm more efficiently. Before they were able to ride horses, humans had to cross land on foot. Riding horses allowed people to travel far greater distance in much less time. That encouraged populations living in different areas to interact with one another. The new form of rapid transportation helped cultures spread around the world.（）76. Before domestication horses were ___________.A. caught for sports.B. hunted for foodC. made to pull ploughsD. used to carry people（）77. The author uses the Shetland horse as an example to show_________.A. it is smaller than the Clydesdale horse.B. horse used to have gentle personalities.C. some horses have better shaped than others.D. horses were of less variety before domestication（）78. Horses contributed to the spread of culture by ___________.A. carrying heavy loads.B. changing farming methods.C. serving as a means of transportD. advancing agriculture in different areas.（）79. The passage is mainly about __________.A. why human domesticated horses.B. how humans and horses needed each other.C. why horses came in different shapes and sizes.A. how human societies and horses influenced each other.Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.80.Each year, millions of people go abroad to work, study, or travel. It‟s a great way to find out what life is like in another part of the world! But constantly having to deal with new situations can be frustrating, even stressful. Homesickness, stress, fear, and confusion are all symptoms of “culture shock”. You may feel frustrated that you have culture shock, especially since you probably spent so much time preparing for your trip. No matter how much information you read, or how well you speak the host language, it is natural to feel overwhelmed sometimes. If you give yourself some time, things will gradually get easier.81.While it is certainly OK to feel frustration or confusion in your new surroundings, try not to form an opinion about the new culture too soon. You may be quick to judge the food, the manners and communication styles and as a result, you may want to do things the way you are used to. If you have this kind of attitude, you will probably avoid some of the very experiences that you came for. Don‟t think of the host culture as better or worse, just differen t----you‟ll be more willing to try new thing.82.This is obvious, but everybody needs to be reminded. Just watching life go on around you isn‟t good enough----you really need to try things for yourself. Don‟t worry about making a mistake; people in your host country will generally be very understanding and willing to help if you have questions. If you are unsure of what to do in a formal setting, follow others‟ lead.83.Don‟t forget about the organizations and people that are there to help you. Colleges and universities generally have offices that concentrate on the needs of international students and theirfamilies. Talk to members of your host family or your host family or friends that you‟ve made there. All of these people will be happy to help. But you must be willing to discuss your concerns with them. You won‟t offend anyone, so be honest!84.Talking to someone familiar to you always makes you feel better, and they can encourage you when you‟re feeling homesick. A good idea is to make plans to cal l every week on the same day and time. That way, you‟ll never be disappointed that nobody is home to answer your call, and you‟ll have something to look forward to each week. If you are going to be able to use email while you are abroad, you‟ll be able to keep in touch with lots of friends and family very inexpensively!第II卷I.

The training I received, though excellent, didn't not tell me how it was to work with a real student, however. When I began to discover what other people’s lives were like because they could not read, I realized the true importance of reading.My first student Marie was a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn't know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule, she told me it would not help because she couldn't read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermaket because she couldn't always remember what she needed. Also, she could only recognize items by sight, so if the product had a different label, she would not recognize it as the product she wanted.As we worked together, learning how to read built Marie’s self-confidence. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip, she reported how self-confident she felt. At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son,Tony, a shy first grader, with his reading. I found that helping Marie to build her self-confidence was more rewarding than anything I had ever done before.As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may have learned more from the experience than Marie did.56. What did the writer do last summer?A. She worked in the supermarket.B. She helped someone to learn to read.C. She helped some single mothers.D. She was trained by a literacy volunteer.57. Why didn't Marie go to the supermarket by bus at first?A. Because she liked to walk to the supermarket.B. Because she didn't have a bus schedule.C. Because she couldn't afford the bus ticket.D. Because she couldn't find the right bus.58. How did Marie use to find the goods she wanted in the supermarket?A. She knew where the goods were in the supermarket.B. She asked others to take her to the right place.C. She managed to find the goods by their looks.D. She remembered the names of the goods.59. Which of the statements is TRUE about Marie?A. She could do many things she had not been able to before.B. She was able to read stories with the help of her son.C. She decided to continue her studies in school.D. She helped to build up my self-confidence.BGet Smarter--- in a week!It seems too simple: watching a quiz show, doing a crosswords, remembering telephone numbers and taking a shower wi th your eyes closed. Yet these “brain exercises” can make us all up to 40 percent cleverer within seven days, according to a BBC program shown last week.“IQ has traditionally been thought of as a fixed meausre of someone’s intelligence,” said Philip Morr ow, executive producer of the program, Get Smarter in a Week. “But an increasing body of scientific opinion holds that you can take steps in your life to actually improve your brainpower. You can do it by, for example, enhancing your memory, working on your spatial（空间的）awareness, doing things differently and eating healthily. Scientists say you will see noticeable improvements within a week.” The program put scientists’ growing belief that lifestyle changes influence intelligence to test.The BBC production team ea rlier did trial runs among 15 volunteers, who each followed a “get smarter” schedule for a week. What they found was that some performed up to 40 percent better than in the initial assessment, 10 percent.“This program shows everyone can get smarter, and feel better, if they do these simple things,”said Morrow.60. This BBC program is trying to prove the idea that ________.A. brainpower is what one is born with and can not be enhanced.B. one can improve his brainpower by living in a different lifestyle.C. once a person’s IQ is measured, it is fixed and will never change.D. everyone’s brainpower is determined by his own lifestyle.61. If you do what is suggested in the table, all of the following may happen EXCEPT that you will _________.A. become sharper in mindB. become confidentC. get better at making decisionsD. lose weight in a short period62. Suppose the team has worked out a 50-page Get Smarter Guide, which suggestion will probably be included?A. Watch soap operas before going to bed.B. Have fast food five days a week.C. Move around your home, eyes covered.D. Take an elevator to the office every day.CNearly a quarter of British workers plug in their MP3 players to listen to music while on the job--- sparking lively debate over whether they should be banned, a study said.Over 30 percent of companies have outlawed using devices like the ipod in the workplace, according to Woods Bagot, an international design practice.“By wearing the highly-visible, white headphones, they’re…sending a signal to colleagues that they don't want to be bothered,” said Simon Pole, head of a company.According to the study, 22 percent of workers spend an average of three hours per day listening to MP3 players. But some argue that the trend is only natural: previously（先前的）workers werephysically separated by walls, whereas offices are increasingly open-plan nowadays, pushing them to erect（建立）new barriers.“The MP3 player is the simplest way to create your own office,” said the company. And Cary Cooper, professor of organization psychology at Lancaster University, and author of “Shut up and Listen: The Truth about How to Communicate at Work,” said bans were counter-productive. “Employers are wrong to ban MP3 players from the workplace. Bosses shouldn't care about how employees accomplish their objectives or whether they want to engross（全神贯注于）themselves in MP3 players --- as long as the job gets done,” he added.63. What did the debate about according to the study?A. Whether it is allowed for workers to take ipods to work.B. Whether communication among workers is needed in office.C. Whether bosses care about the way employees accomplish their goals.D. Whether it should be banned to listen to music while on the job.64. Who may approve of the using of MP3 player at work according to the report?A. Woods BagotB. Simon PoleC. Cary CooperD. Nobody65. What does the word “outlaw” probably mean?A. ForbidB. PermitC. ProtectD. Declare66. Why do some people believe that listening to MP3 players while working is natural?A. Workers need barriers to separate themselves from others.B. It may help to improve the workers’ efficiency.C. It is important to learn to commmunicate at work.D. Workers should not be bothered while working.DSports shoes that work out whether their owner has done enough exercise to warrant（保证）time in front of the television have been devised in the UK.The shoes---named Square Eyes---contain an electronic pressure sensor and a tiny computer chip to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day. A wireless transmitter（发射器）passes the information to a receiver connected to a television, and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer deserves, based on the day’s efforts.The design was inspired by a desire to fight against the rapidly ballooning waistlines among British teenagers, says Gillian Swan, who developed Square Eyes as a final year design project at Brunel University in London, UK. “We looked at current issues and childhood overweight really stood out,” she says, “And I wanted to tackle（对付）that with my design.Once a child has used up their daily allowance gained through exercise, the television automatically switches off. And further time in front of the TV can only be earned through more steps.Swan calculated how exercise should translate to television time using the recommended daily amount of both. Health experts suggest that a child take 12,000 steps each day and watch no more than two hours of television. So, every 100 steps recorded by the Square Eyes shoes equals precisely one minute of TV time.Existing pedometers（计步器）normally clip onto a belt or slip into a pocket and keep count of steps by measuring sudden movement. Swan says these can be easily tricked into recording steps through shaking. But her shoe has been built to be harder for lazy teenagers to cheat. “ It is possible, but it would be a lot of effort,” she says. “That was one of my main design considerations.”67. According to Swan, the purpose of her design project is to ________.A. keep a record of the steps of the wearer.B. deal with overweight among teenagers.C. enable children to resist the temptation of TV.D. Prevent children from being tricked by TV programs.68. Which of the following is true of Square Eyes shoes?A. They regulate a child’s evening TV viewing time.B. They determine a child’s d aily pocket money.C. They have raised the hot issue of overweight.D. They contain the information of the receiver.69. What is emphasized by health experts to deal with teenagers’ overweight?A. The exact number of steps to be taken.B. The precise number of hours spent on TV.C. The way of changing steps into TV watching time.D. The proper amount of daily exercise and TV time.70. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Smart Shoes Stop British OverweightB. Smart Shoes Guarantee More ExerciseC. Smart Shoes Measure Time of ExerciseD. Smart Shoes Decide on Television TimeSection C （5分）Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A~F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need. Write your answers on your answer sheet.71. ____________Everyone’s at it, even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn’t done an eBay deal. So I decided to try my hand at online auction（拍卖）.72. ____________Buying for beginners: Sign up on . Most items （eg. Tables, computers and books）ready for auction will come with a picture and a short description; others may be marked with Buy It Now and have a fixed price. You can buy these right away. If the item is being auctioned, you offer the highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids（出价）for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again. Auctions last up to 10 days and when they finish you get an email telling you whether you have won the item.73. ____________How to pay: Sellers decide how they would like to be paid and you need to check this before placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card.74. ____________Selling made simple: If you plan to sell on eBay, it helps to include a picture of the item. I followed my friends’ advice and put up the ite ms I wanted to sell for a 10-day auction, starting on a Thursday. This way buyers had two weekends to bid.75. ____________The big things in life: It’s easy to post a small item, but furniture is a big part of eBay and this has to be collected or sent by deliverymen. Check the ways of delivery before you bid.第II卷（共25分）IV. Verb Filling （10分）Directions: Complete the following sentences by using the given verbs in their proper forms.76. Don't enter the kitchen. It ________（paint）.77. The sports meeting we are looking forward to _________（attract）a lot of people.78. The soup _______（taste）good. Please help yourself.79.

The answer is that women enjoy a joke more once they get it. If you tell a woman a joke and get a blank look, don’t 41 despair. She’s just taking her time to understand it. But if the punchline（妙语）does eventually make her laugh it will be 42 the wait.Scientists have found that while women are slower than men at getting jokes, they enjoy them more when they truly understand. Research shows that women use their brain more than men to process witty 43 and have less expectation that they will be funny.When a joke does hit the right 44 , however, women derive more pleasure from it. Scientists asked ten men and ten women to look at dozens of black and white cartoons and rate them on a “funniness scale”. During the process they underwent sophisticated scans that mapped which parts of their brain were lighting up and timed how long it took them to 45 to a joke. The women tended to use 46 parts of their brain. Professor Allan Reiss said: “We found greater activity in the parts of their brain in women, showing women are processing stimuli that 47 language areas of the brain.”The 48 of a “feelgood” brain region also revealed that men and women have different attitudes to humour. Experts said: “Women appeared to have less expectation of a reward. So they were more pleased about it.” The funnier the cartoon, the more the women’s parts of their brain lit up. This was not the case for men. The women took 49 longer than the men to react to jokes that were funny — but were quicker to spot the “truth”.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.People with a positive attitude toward aging can adjust very well when individual circumstances change. Their positive outlook allows them to 50 to the inevitable physical and biochemical changes of the body that are associated with the natural 51 of aging. With a healthy outlook on the golden years, even unpredictable setbacks and disabilities can be managed 52 .Individual genetic makeup (基因构造) explains the great 53 in the aging rate. Some seniors experience more challenges than others of the same age, and some seniors continue to function better than many younger people. But genetics only 54 about 30 percent of aging. Most of the changes we associate with age 55 factors such as diet and exercise habits; lifestyle issues, including over 56 of alcohol and tobacco, and psychological traits.We can make healthy lifestyle choices by sta ying 57 both physically and mentally and by 58 a healthy diet. Some of the setbacks associated with advancing age such as 59 eyesight, loss of hearing, forgetfulness, weakness can be forestalled with some active intervention （干预）.G rowing older does not always mean you see poorly. Many older people have 60 good eyesight well into their eighties and beyond. However, the single greatest contributor to vision loss is a lifetime of 61 to damaging ultraviolet (紫外线) radiation in sunlight.Carotenoids（类胡萝卜素）, a nutrient found in brightly colored vegetables and fruits, are powerful protectors against free-radical damage. Research shows that simply eating leafy greens and other foods rich in these protective nutrients can 62 vision loss.Problems with hearing can create 63 and insecurity in later years. One of the major causes of age-related hearing loss is damage to the hair cells in the inner ear that transmit sounds to the brain. These hair cells and their nerve endings can be damaged by infections, genetic diseases, or treatment with certain drugs. The most common cause, 64 , is loud noise.50.

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 you have just read.(A)From snow-clogged mountain roads to desert highways, freeways to crowded city streets, Californians face a variety of tough driving conditions. But thanks to savvy driving, they consume proportionately less gasoline the rest of the nation. Here, some tips from the Golden State that will help drivers all over the country to get up to 25% more miles per gallon! By SUSAN NESTORFREEW AY FRENZY●Try to maintain a steady speed — especially on freeways and expressways. Never exceed asteady 55 mph. Varying speed by as little as 5mph can reduce mileage by 1.5 miles per gallon.Avoid constant lane changes to “get ahead.”●Buy radial tyres. If you do a lot of expressway driving, they can increase mileage by as much as 10%. Your fuel savings will pay for the higher tyre price.ON CITY STREETS● Plan your route. City driving consumes about 50% more fuel than highway driving (100% more in crowed traffic). Always choose a route with synchronized traffic signals to get the best run for your money.● Avoid unnecessary braking. Anticipate（预期）traffic light changes; it takes a lot of extra gas to get the car up to speed again.COLD●In winter, keep the car in a garage. It will start up easier, and start-up time is when you use the most gasoline. No garage? Cover the engine compartment with an old blanket or rug to shield it from cold winds; remove before starting up.●Remove all ice and snow.Driving in snow consumes more gas anyway; no sense hauling around extra weight.65. All these above are ______ for drivers.A. noticesB. tipsC. lessonsD. advertisements66. Highway driving can use about ______ fuel than city driving.A. 20% moreB. 20% lessC. 50% moreD. 50% less67. Which of the following is TRUE?A. In winter, you will have difficulty starting up a car if it is kept in a garage.B. Drivers should avoid necessary breaking and constant lane changes.C. A steady 65 mph is the ideal speed to save gasoline.D. Radial tyres can help increase mileage in expressway driving.(B)Martin Luther King, Jr., is well known for his work in civil rights and for his many famous speeches, among them his moving “I Have a Dream” speech. But few people know much about King’s childho od, Martin Luther as he was called was born in 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia, at the home of his maternal grandfather. Martin Luther’s grandfather, the Reverend A.D. Williams, purchased their home on Auburn Avenue in 1909, 28 years before Martin Luther was born. The Reverend A.D. Williams, an eloquent speaker, played an important role in the community because so many people’s lives centered around the church. He allowed his church and his home to be used as a meeting place for a number of organizations dedicated to the education and social advancement of blacks. Martin Luther grew up in this atmosphere, with his home being used as community gathering place, and was no doubt influenced by it.Martin Luther’s childhood was not especially memorable. His father was a minister and his mother was a musician. He was the second of three children, and he attended all-black schools in a black neighbourhood. The neighbourhood was not poor, however, Auburn Avenue was the main artery through a prosperous neighbourhood that he had come to symbolize achievement for Atlanta’s black people. It was area of banks, insurance companies, builders, jewelers, tailors, doctors, lawyers and other black-owned or black-operated businesses and services. Even in the face of Atlanta’s segregat ion (种族隔离), district thrived. Dr. King never forgot the community spirit he had known as a child, nor did he forget the racial prejudice（歧视）that was a seemingly insurmountable barrier that kept black Atlantans from mingling with whites.68. This passage mainly gives an account of ______.A. the prejudice that existed in AtlantaB. Martin Luther’s grandfatherC. Martin Luther King’s childhoodD. the neighbourhood where King grew up69. According to the author, King was influenced by ______.A. community spiritB. black lawyerC. his motherD. his grandfather’s speeches70. The word “mingling” in paragraph 2 is the closest in meaning to ______.A. interferingB. consumingC. associatingD. meeting71. This passage tells us that Martin Luther King, Jr. ______.A. had a difficult childhoodB. was a good musician when he was a boyC. loved to listen to his grandfather speakD. grew up in a relatively rich area of Atlanta(C)A weather map is an important tool for geographers. A succession of three or four maps presents a continuous picture of weather changes. Weather forecasters are able to determine the speed of air masses and fronts（冷暖空气团接触的锋）to determine whether an individual pressure area is deepening or becoming shallow and whether a front is increasing or decreasing in intensity. They are also able to determine whether an air mass is retaining its original characteristics or taking on those of the surface over which it is moving. Thus, a most significant function of the map is to reveal a synoptic picture of conditions in the atmosphere at a given time.All students of geography should be able to interpret a weather map accurately. Weather maps contain an enormous amount of information about weather conditions existing at the time ofobservation over a large geographical area. They reveal in a few minutes what otherwise would take hours to describe. The United States Weather Bureau issues information about approaching storms, floods, frosts, drought s, and all climatic conditions in general. Twice a month it issues a 30-day “outlook” which is a rough guide to weather conditions likely to occur over broad areas of the United States. These 30-day outlooks are based upon an analysis of the upper air levels which often set the stage for the development of air masses, fronts, and storms.Considerable effort is being exerted today to achieve more accurate weather predictions. With the use of electronic instruments and earth satellites, enormous gains have taken place recently in identifying and tracking storms over regions which have but few meteorological stations (气象站). Extensive experiments are also in progress for weather modification（改变）studies. But the limitations of modification have prevented meteorological results except in the seeding of super-cooled, upslope mountainous winds which have produced additional orographic (山岳形态的) precipitation on the windward side of mountain ranges. Nevertheless, they have provided a clearer understanding of the fundamentals of weather elements.72. By reading weather maps, students majoring in geography can .A. design a project of weather modificationB. interpret the weather condition before the time of observationC. obtain data on atmospheric conditions over a wide areaD. survey ever-changing fronts in local meteorological stations73. A thirty-day forecast is determined by examining .A. daily weather mapsB. upper air levelsC. satellite reportsD. changing fronts74. The observation of weather conditions by satellites is advantageous because ______.A. electronic instruments are usedB. it enables man to alter the weatherC. it makes weather prediction more time-consumingD. information not obtained readily otherwise can be gained75. At the present time, experiments are being conducted in .A. controlling and influencing weatherB. determining density of pressure groupsC. 30-day “outlooks”D. predicting stormsSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from the list A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. The power and habit of thinkingB. The value of previous educationC. The correctness in using mother tongueD. The development of an educated manE. The possession of gratitudeF. Refined and natural manners76.The first characteristic of an educated man is the precision of the use of the native language. When one hears English well spoken, with pure diction, correct pronunciation, and an almost unconscious choice of the right word, he recognizes it at once. How much easier he finds it to imitate English of the other sort.77.When manners are artificial and forced, no matter what their form, they are bad manners. When, however, they are the natural expression of fixed habits of thought and action, and when they reveal a refined and cultivated nature, they are good manners. There are certain things that gentlemen do not do, and they do not do them simply because they are bad manners.78.Human beings for the most part live wholly on the surface or far beyond the present moment and that part of the future that is quickly to follow it. They do not read those works of prose and poetry which have become classic because they reveal power and habit of reflection and induce that power and habit in others. When one reflects long enough to ask the question how? He is on the way to knowing something about science.79.An educated man continues to grow and develop from birth to his dying day. His interests expand, his contacts multiply, his knowledge increases, and his reflection becomes deeper and wider. It would appear to be true that not many human beings, even those who have had a school and college education, continue to grow after they are twenty-four or twenty-five years of age. By that time it is usual to settle down to life on a level of more or less contented intellectual interest and activity. The whole present-day movement for adult education is a systematic and definite attempt to keep human beings growing long after they have left school and college, and therefore, to help educate them.80.The more visionary dreamer, however charming or however wise, lacks something that an education requires. The power to do may be exercised in any one of a thousand ways, but when it clearly shows itself,that is evidence that the period of discipline of study and of companionship with parents and teachers has not been in vain.SectionＤDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Exceptional children are different in some significant ways from others of the same age. For these children to develop to their full adult potential, their education must be adapted to those differences.Although we focus on the needs of exceptional children, we find ourselves describing their environment as well. While the leading actor on the stage captures our attention, we are aware of the importance of the supporting players and the scenery of the play itself. Both the family and the society in which exceptional children live are often the key to their growth and development. And it is in the public schools that we find the full expression of society’s understanding —the knowledge, hopes, and fears that are passed on to the next generation.Education in any society is a mirror of that society. In that mirror we can see the strengths, the weaknesses, the hopes, the prejudices, and the central values of the culture itself. The greatinterest in exceptional children shown in public education over the past three decades indicates the strong feeling in our society that all citizens, whatever their special conditions, deserve the opportunity to fully develop their capabilities.“All men are created equal,” we heard it many times, but it still has important meaning for education in a democratic society. Although the phrase was us ed by this country’s founders to indicate equality before the law, it has also been interpreted to mean equality of opportunity. That concept implies educational opportunity for all children — the right of each child to receive help in learning to the limits of his or her capability, whether that capability is small or great. Recent court decisions have confirmed the right of all children — disabled or not — to an appropriate education, and have ordered that public schools take the necessary steps to provide that education. In response, schools are modifying their programs, adapting instruction to children who are exceptional, to those who cannot profit substantially from regular programs.（Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.）81. This passage is concerned primarily with the necessity of adapting ________________.82. What affects the growth of exceptional children according to the author?83. People have shown great interest in the education of exceptional children over the last threedecades because they believe that ________________________________________.84. According to the passage, what does “All men are created equal” mean to the country’sfounders?第II卷（共 45 分）I.
