Many cars in advertisements and on exhibition in the United States are red, blue or green, but almost 75 percent of new cars sold in the United States are black, white, silver orgray.
Les Jackson is a reporter who writes about cars. He says the color1 s of cars Americans choose do not show dirt. He says that means the owners wash their cars less in order to save money. And he notes some areas that are suffering from water shortages do not permit people to wash their cars often.
Dan Benton works for a company called Axalta, which makes supplies for international car makers. He says white cars are often sold more expensive than cars of other color1 s. And he notes that white cars “absorb(吸收)less energy” than cars of other color1 s. This means temperatures inside them are lower in warmer areas. Benton also says research at Monash University in Australia suggests that there is a lower risk of crashes during the day for white cars compared with darker ones.
Car buyers in other countries also like white. Jane Harrington works for PPG Industries, a company that makes paint for cars. She said in China, buyers say white makes a small car look bigger.
About 11 percent of cars sold in North America are red and 8 percent are blue. Green has become less popular. Benton notes that in the mid-1990s green was the most popular color1 in North America. Today, green is hard to find.
Sometime in the future, people may not have to choose the color1 of their cars —— technology may let owners change their cars’ paint color1 anytime.
4. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Most Americans don’t like red cars.
B. People in America are not allowed to wash their cars.
C. Many people prefer to choose white cars in America.
D. Americans may consider the cost of cleaning when choosing cars.
5. Why do many people choose white cars?
A. They are much cheaper than cars of other color1 s..
B. They are much safer while crashing.
C. They are bigger than cars of other color1 s.
D. They are more comfortable inside in warmer areas.

What do you think of 80s pop music? Do the names George Michael, Madonna and Michael Jackson sound familiar? Well, these are just some of the names that were well-known in the music scene of the 80s and early 90s. The 80s pop musicscene was an important step to the popularity (普及) of present-day music. A new wave in the music scene was introduced, which made such music styles as punk rock, rap music and the MTV popular. Although it was an end to the old 60s and 70s styles, it was also the beginning of something big. The popularity of music videos meant that artists now replaced their guitar-based music with visual displays. A new wave of artists came on the scene and the entire industry developed quickly.
The most famous 80s pop music video is Michael Jackson’s Thriller. Introduced in 1982, few people can forget the video not only because of its never-be-foreseen images, but also because of the popularity it received. Think of how 80s pop music changed the lives of people who grew up in the 80s. Ask a young man today to tell you the names of the “New Kids on the Block” and he will start talking about the neighbor kids who just moved in. These are not the answers you might have heard in the 80s. Though today’s young men do not recognize how cool 80s pop music was, most people will always remember it for what it was and these are happy memories they will always love.
Some of the 80s pop music legends (传奇人物) include Madonna, U2, AeroSmith and of course the King of
Pop Michael Jackson. Let’s not forget Prince, Tina Turner, Phil Collins and Motown’s Lionel Ritchie. Some of these musicians played music that has stood the test of time. Undoubtedly, the 80s pop music scene will live on for many more years to come.
8. What is the text mainly about?
A. The characters of 80s pop music.
B. What made 80s pop music popular.
C. 80s pop music’s steps to popularity.
D. The effects of 80s pop music.
9. 80s pop music mainly includes the following styles EXCEPT ________.
A. guitar-based music
B. the MTV
C. rap music
D. punk rock
10. Michael Jackson’s Thriller impressed people so deeply mainly because ________.
A. it changed the lives of people
B. he sang it in a special style
C. it was made into a music video
D. it left people with happy memories
11. The purpose of the last paragraph is to tell readers that ________.
A. 80s pop music is and will remain popular
B. 80s pop music has many faults
C. 80s pop music is now out of date
D. we shouldn’t forget the great musicians of the 80s
D
Experts are warning about the risks of extremely picky(挑剔的)eating after a teenager living on a diet of chips and crisps developed lasting sight loss. Eye doctors inBristolcared for the 17-year-old after his sight had gone to the point of blindness. Tests showed he had serious vitamin deficiency(缺乏). Dr. Denize Atan, who treated him at the hospital, said, “His diet was basically a portion of chips from the local fish and chip shop every day. He also used to snack on crisps and sometimes white bread and ham, and not really any fruit and vegetables.”
The teenager saw his doctor at the age of 14 because he had been feeling tired and unwell. At that time he suffered from vitamin B12 deficiency, but he did not stick with the treatment or improve his poor diet. Three years later, he was taken to theBristolEyeHospitalbecause of progressive sight loss.
He was not overweight or underweight, but he had lost minerals from his bones, which was really quite shocking for a boy of his age. In terms of his sight loss, he met the standards of being blind. “He had blind spots right in the middle of his sight,” said Dr Denize Atan, “That means he can’t drive and would find it reallyarduousto read, watch TV or recognize faces.”
Dr Denize Atan said that parents should learn about the harm that can be caused by picky eating, and turn to experts for help. For those who are concerned , she advised, “It’s best not to be anxious about picky eating , and instead calmly introduce one or two new foods with every meal.” She said multivitamin tablets can supplement(补
充) a diet, but cannot take the place of eating healthily. “It’s much better to take in vitamins through a varied and balanced diet,” she said, adding that too manycertain vitamins , including vitamin A, can be harmful ,“so you don’t want to overdo it.”
12. What does Dr Denize Atan imply in paragraph 1?
A. The diet of the boy is not balanced.
B. Fruit and vegetables are rich in vitamins.
C. Picky eating is common among teenagers.
D. The cause of the boy’s disease is unknown.
13. Why did the boy go to see his doctor at the age of 14?
A. To improve his poor diet.
B. To get some help to lose weight.
C. To be treated for his discomfort.
D. To slow down his progressive sight loss.
14. What does the underlined word “arduous” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Important.
B. Easy.
C. Necessary.
D. Difficult.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A. Reasons why the boy is seriously ill.
B.Suggestions for the boy’s family to care for him.
C. Advice for parents worried about picky eating.
D. Waysof taking in enough vitamins and minerals.

第二节书面表达（满分25分）
52.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写成两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

There was once a man who went out to look for a job. As he was passing his neighbor’s house, an important piece of paper fell out of the man’s pocket.
His neighbor happened to be looking out of the window. He saw the piece of paper fall, and he thought:
“What a disgrace! That guy let that fall out of his pocket on purpose. He’s trying to mess up the front of my house!” But instead of going out and communicating with him, the neighbor planned his revenge(报复). That night, he took his waste-paper basket and went to the man’s house. The first man also happened to be looking out of the window, and saw what happened. Later, when he was picking up the paper which had been dumped near his door, he found the important piece of paper that he had lost. It was torn into dozens of pieces. He thought that his neighbor had not only picked his pocket, but had the cheek to（厚着脸皮）mess up his doorway with rubbish.
He didn’t want to say anything. Instead, he started planning his revenge. That night he phoned a farmer to make an order of ten pigs and a hundred ducks. He asked that they be delivered to his neighbor’s house.
Of course, the next day, his neighbor had quite a bit of trouble trying to get rid of so many animals and their noises. Sure that this had been an evil trick pulled by his neighbor, the second man again started planning his revenge immediately he got rid of the pigs and ducks.
And so it went on.
They continued trying to get back at each other, and each time their acts of revenge got bigger and more stupid. The dropping of that single piece of paper ended up causing a fire siren(警报), the driving of a truck into a garden fence, the throwing of stones at windows, and finally the dropping of a bomb which destroyed both men’s houses.
