The story started with the Trail of Tears in 1838. the mothers of the Cherokece were 38 and crying so much, because they were unable to help their children survive the 39 . The elders prayed for a sign that would lift the mothers’ spirits to give them 40 . The next day a beautiful rose began to grow where each of the mothers’ tears 41 . The rose is white for their 42 , a gold center 43 the gold taken from Cherokee lands, and seven leaves on each stem for the seven Cherokee clans (部落). The wild Cherokee Rose grows 44 the route of the Trail of Tears into eastern Oklahoma today. Certainly, it is a 45 tale, but there is more to the story. Thomas Affleck sold huge numbers of Rosa Laevigata to large homesteads〔家园〕 and plantations(种植园), 46 the rose as a fence.

PART THREE: READING COMPREHENSION
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 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
About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a yo ung boy sat down at the next table, I couldn’t help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked, “So, how have you been?〞 And the boy — who could not have been more than seven or eight years old — replied. “Frankly, I’ve been feel ing a little depressed lately.〞
This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed (确认) my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn’t find out we were “depressed〞, that is, in low spirits, until we were in high school.
Undoubtedly a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don’t seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why?
Human development is depended not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of gaining social knowledge. Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new social positions. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages; traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation (揭示) machine has been equipped in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information to all viewers alike, whether they are children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation (诱惑) , many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more attractive moving pictures.
Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information which children will gain. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.
56．According to the author, feeling depressed is ________.
A．a sure sign of a mental problem in a child
B．a mental state present in all humans, including children
C．something that cannot be avoided in children’s mental development
D．something hardly to be expected in a young child 57．Traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world _________.
A．through connection with society
B．gradually and under guidance
C．naturally without being taught
D．through watching television
58．According to the author, that today’s children seem adultlike results from ______.
A．the widespread influence of television
B．the poor arrangement of teaching content
C．the fast pace of human scientific development
D．the rising standard of living
59．What does the author think of communication through print for children?
A．It enables children to gain more social information.
B．It develops children’s interest in reading and writing.
C．It helps children to read and write well.
D．It can control what children are to learn.
60．What does the author think of the change in today’s children?
A．He feels their adultlike behavior is so funny.
B．He thinks the change worthy of note.
C．He considers it a rapid development.
D．He seems to be upset about it.
B
Part A
In the United Kingdom was hit again by foot-and-mouth disease, the first time since the 1960s, causing a national crisis. However, much of the panic and confusion was spread largely as a result of ignorance of the disease.
Foot-and-mouth is a highly contagious(传染性的) disease found in Africa, South
America, Asia, the Middle East and parts of Europe. It affects cloven-footed(偶啼) domestic animals such as cows, pigs, sheep and goats, as well as wild animals like rats and deer and zoo animals such as elephants. Horses, however, cannot contract 〔感染〕the disease.
It is very rare for humans to catch the disease. Indeed, only one case has been recorded in Great Britain and that was in 1967.
Part B
Foot-and-mouth disease is insidious〔潜伏的〕 and can be spread by direct and indirect contact with infected animal. The disease can be spread on the wind, and can be spread by people, equipment or vehicles which have been in contact with the disease. Although the authorities do not really know where this latest outbreak of the disease originated, it can enter a country in frozen meat imported from other countries where the disease is common. Unlike Mad Cow Disease (BSE) and the human equivalent CJD, foot-and-mouth has no implication〔牵连〕 for the human food chain. Any meat, milk, cheese and other dairy products can be consumed quite safely.
Part C
It seems that the only way to control the disease is to kill infected animals. There is no cure for the disease, and although adult animals normally recover in 2-3 weeks, they sadly remain carriers of the virus for up to two years.
From the time the disease was first reported to the time the epidemic〔流行〕was officially declared over, one and a half million and more domestic animals were slaughtered and large areas of the countryside were closed to the public. These areas included parks, woods and forests, and various leisure attractions situated in the countryside.
61. The main purpose of writing this passage is_______.
A.to warn people of the danger of the disease
B.to describe the disaster by the disease
C.to share some of the facts about the disease
D.to declare the success in control of the disease
62. Foot-and-mouth disease is insidious because it is spread_______.
A. by farmers and farm vehicles
B. in so many different ways
C. by being carried in the air
D. mainly by people who have been in contact with infected animals
63. That foot-and-mouth disease is different from Mad Cow Disease mainly lies in that______.
A. it affects the human food chain
B. people cannot consume dairy products
C. it is found in frozen meat
D. meat is still safe to eat
64. The underlined word “they〞 in Part C means ________.
A. disease
B. infected animals
C. adult animals
D. 2-3 weeks
65. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?
A. Horses cannot contract the foot-and-mouth disease.
B. The record that humans caught the disease was first kept in 1967.
C. Frozen meat imported from other countries can carry the disease.
D. Animals infected can be cured in 2-3 weeks.
C
Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now，and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them；often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.
Of course sometimes there were real disasters(灾难) which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes．Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore．At such times， there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries；however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.
Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U. S., for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell．A third department looks at the places where people work，and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course，new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness，but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before. The planes and cars which we use for travel are better. Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products．
66.The main topic of the passage is_________.
A. conditions in the work place
B. the freedom of industries in the past
C. changes in industrial production
D. the safety and health of workers and
customers
67. It can be inferred from the passage that in the past______.
A. workers often got ill because of the poor working conditions
B. companies were free to put out any products they wanted to
C. many people were killed by dangerous products
D. industries were as careful in management as they are today
68. It is implied in the passage that_________.
A. governments and companies had different opinions about the safety of products
B. governments paid little attention to the safety of products
C. government officials often did not listen to scientists
D. in the past no safety laws were introduced by governments
69. Some years ago safety rules_________.
A. were put forward due to scientists’ recommendations
B. came into being as a result of the workers’ demands
C. were introduced because quite a number of people were killed or seriously injured
D. were effective enough to protect workers and customers
70.The special departments protect customers and workers in many
ways EXCEPT by_________.
A. testing new products
B. controlling the sale of products
C. designing new products
D. inspecting work places
Part 1V Writing (45 marks)
Section A (10 marks)[
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORD S for each answer.
When I opened my e-mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother, and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give him a high-speed Internet connection. It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail. Facemail lets you send e-mail that can read mails to the receiver by an attractive male or female form or by a clown. The software, which is free, can be downloaded at Facemail .
Facemail faces are lifelike, and they copy emotions based on the ones that you put in your text. For example, type in X, and Rachel blows a kiss.]
Life FX, the company that develops the Facemail is sure there are broad business uses. The reason e-business is not popular, the company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale? Besides, the company is talking with Whirlpool company about the technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom can’t be at home when the kids get back from school, she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast. Personally, I am a fan. But Facemail should be used with words in an e-mail and add angry emotions when you’ve got junk mails.

SECTION B (10 marks)
Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the
information given in the passage.〔10 marks〕
These days, Americans worry most about an economic recovery that President Obama calls "painfully slow". But on Saturday millions will remember the day al-Qaida terrorists flew airplanes into the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington. Another hijacked plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania when passengers rebelled. Close to three thousand people died that day. Next year will be a big anniversary, ten years since the day Americans call 9-11.
But this September eleventh comes at an uneasy time. A large number of Americans say they oppose plans to build an Islamic center near the World Trade Center site in New York. This week attention centered on a Christian minister(基督教事工) with a small following in the state of Florida.
Reverend Terry Jones said he would mark the 9-11 anniversary by burning copies of the Quran(可兰经). He said he wanted to send a message to Islamic extremists. He said, "We are not hateful toward Muslims. We are not aiming this at Muslims, we are aiming this at Sharia law(伊斯兰教教法)."
Political and religious leaders around the world had condemned him. The plan even led the State Department to warn American travelers to avoid places where protests(抗议) might take place.
President Obama said burning Qurans could endanger American troops and invite more extremism. Defense Secretary Robert Gates called Mr. Jones on Thursday to urge him to reconsider.
Administration officials called the idea of burning Qurans "un-American." But they also agreed that it would be within constitutional rights, like protesters who burn American flags. The Constitution guarantees free speech and bars the government from restricting the practice of religion.
81.According to this news article how many things made this September 11 uneasy? (No
more than 1 word)
82.What did the State Department think would happen after Reverend revealed his plan?
(No more than 4 words)
83.How did the government prevent the situation becoming worse? (No more than 9 words)
84.Why couldn’t the US government forbid Reverend to burn Qurans? (No more than 7
words)
