Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.With oil prices approaching the symbolic mark of $ 100 a barrel, the world is heading towards its third energy shock in a generation. But today's rise is 50 different from the oil crises in the 1970s and 1980s. It will have a greater global impact.The 51 oil shocks were caused by sudden interruptions in exports from the Middle East. But this time prices have been rising steadily as 52 gasoline in both developed countries and developing economies grows. This is the world’s first demand-led energy shock.Oil prices 53 $ 98.6 on the New York Mercantile Exchange before falling back to $ 96.4 at the close of trading last Wednesday.

It turned a country that was once self-sufficient into an oil 61 .Today, however, China consumes only a third as much oil as the US, which burns a quarter of the 62 oil each day. Europe has managed to reduce oil consumption through high gasoline taxes, small cars and 63 public transportation. But Americans have not.Experts say no one should count on oil prices rising forever.

We chose the first. Up early; my husband and I and our three children couldn’t wait to get started. We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.As we set out, I was shocked at how narrow the path was. And I couldn’t he lp noticing that the other tourists weren’t like us. They had heavy backpacks, water bottles, and hats. But as usual we were dressed, As the sun rose higher, Arizona’s famous heat seemed to roast us. There was no shade and our legs were aching. We decided to go back, with the girl on my back and the boys far behind. By the time we finally got back, our legs were like jelly.The next day, after we’d had a long rest and a good breakfast, we were ready for another view of the Canyon – by air. After our last walk, this would be the easiest thing in the world.We called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon. But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed（翻转）the plane around, pretending he was going to hit the ground. I shouted, ―STOP, TAKE US BACK!‖ When we finally arrived back on land, once again our legs were like jelly. We hardly spoke as we drove back.As I said, there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon. We never tried the mules, but personally I’d suggest a fourth: buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic.

To many property developers and local government officials, housing price in China is still low compared with many developed countries. However, the average housing price in the United States is only 8,000 yuan per square meter, while in China, it is even higher than in the United States. This shows that there are some bubbles(泡沫) in Chinese real estate market, the International Finance News reported.Although the average price of residential houses in the United States, after converted to Renminbi, is about 8,000 yuan per square meter, the houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses. If US property developers sell their houses according to the building area, then the housing price will be even lower than 8,000 yuan per square meter. In most big Chinese cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, houses are sold at a price even higher than those in the US.The high housing sales price in large cities in China proves that Chinese real estate market does have some bubbles. Moreover, Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities. Furthermore, it should be noted that American people’s average income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people. How can the Chinese afford to buy a house which is even more expensive than that sold in US?At the beginning of 2007, Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public. Now in order to reduce the high housing prices, the government can regulate the real estate market by raising tax on property industry and controlling the release of loans and lands to property developers. At the same time, the government should allow people to build more houses through various fund-raising channels, such as funds collected from buyers or raised by working units. By applying these multiple means, it is expected that the high housing prices can be lowered.72．According to the passage, what is the average housing price per square meter in China?A．8000 yuan B．10000 yuan C．7000 yuan D．It’s not mentioned here73．Which of the following does NOT support the idea that the average housing price in China is even higher than in the United States?A．Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities.B．American people’s average income is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people.C．The houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell their houses.D．There are more people who need houses in China.74．What is the main idea of this passage?A．The housing price in China is so high that the government should do something useful to prevent it.B．There are some bubbles in Chinese real estate market.C．The average housing price in China is even higher than in the United States.D．Chinese government issued a set of policies that aimed to benefit the public.2009届上海市高三年级第二次十四校联考英语试题- 6 - 75．How many measures are mentioned in the last paragraph in order to reduce the high housing prices?A．Four B．Three C．Five D．TwoDSome futurologists have assumed that the vast increase of women in the workforce may portend（预示）a rejection of marriage. Many women, according to this hypothesis, would rather work than marry. The opposite of this concern is that the prospects of becoming a multi-paycheck household could encourage marriage. In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man counted in the marriage decision. Now, however, the earning ability of a woman can make her more attractive as a marriage partner. Data show that economic downturns tend to put off marriage because the parties cannot afford to establish a family or are concerned about rainy days ahead. As the economy comes to life, the number of marriages also rises.The increase in divorce rates follows to the increase in women working outside the home. Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The impact of a wife’s work on divorce is no less cloudy than its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage. But the reverse is equally plausible（似是而非的）. Tensions grounded in financial problems often play a key role in ending a marriage. By raising a family’s standard of living, a working wife may strengthen her family’s financial and emotional stability.Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce. On the other hand, if she can find fulfillment through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union.Also, a major part of women’s inequality in marriage has been due to the fact that, in most cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house. Depending upon how the couple reacts to these new conditions, it could create a stronger equal partnership or it could create new insecurities.76．It is said in the passage that when the economy slides_____.A．men would choose working women as their marriage partnersB．more women would get married to seek financial securityC．even working women would worry about their marriagesD．more people would prefer to remain single for the time being77．If women find fulfillment through work outside the home,_____.A．they are more likely to dominate their marriage partnersB．their husbands are expected to do more houseworkC．their marriage ties can be strengthenedD．they tend to put their career before marriage78．One reason why women with no career may seek a divorce is that_____.A．they feel that they have been robbed of their freedomB．they are afraid of being bossed around by their husbandsC．they feel that their partners fail to live up to their expectationsD．they tend to suspect their husbands? loyalty to their marriage79．Which of the following statements can best summarize the authors view in the passage?A．The stability of marriage and the divorce rate may reflect the economic situation of the country.B．Even when economically independent, most women have to struggle for real equality in marriage.C．In order to secure their marriage women should work outside the home and remain independent.D．The impact of the growing female workforce on marriage varies from case to case.Section C（5分）2009届上海市高三年级第二次十四校联考英语试题- 7 - Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading form A-F for each paragraph. There is80．You should always seek grant（奖学金）opportunities that match your program’s goals and objectives rather than the other way around. If you change your program based on an investor’s guidelines, you may end up with a project or program that is mere shell（框架）of the original plan. The goal of grant writing is not simply to bring more money in for your agency; the goal is to fund programs that will meet the needs of your investor.81．Most funding agencies publish grant guidelines or requirements. Make sure you understand them and follow them exactly. Note the deadline and whether the proposal must be received by the deadline. Don’t have your proposal thrown out because you didn’t follow the guidelines properly. Exceptions are rarely made, regardless of the circumstances.

It is a way of free expression. While gossiping, people communicate with a free mind.Gossiping h__93____ us shift（转移）our interest to others. When we gossip, we seldom discuss our own problems.

And we also come up with solutions to his problems. More happiness flows into our lives when we help and guide a person we are t__94___ about.But, be aware of the dangerous side of gossiping! Gossiping can be harmful if you h__95___ others on purpose. When you start speaking i__96____ of someone, you start criticizing others for nothing.

They didn‟t know the name of the place. It wasn‟t mentioned（提到）o 93 the video. Uncle Henry and Aunt May couldn‟t remember it when I asked them.When they got on the big ship, they sailed up the coast of Canada to Alaska.

We didn‟t know any of the people, but we had to hear their life s 94 . Aunt May insisted on pausing（暂停）the video and telling us.The most e 95 part was when they came close to a river that turned into a kind of waterfall into the sea. They came up r 96 close and one of the tour operators leaned over the front of the ship and tried to catch some of the water in a cup. We all wanted to knowwhether she would fall into the ocean b 97 she got the water. She didn‟t. Other surprising parts were when they saw a seal（海豹）sleeping on an iceberg, and when Aunt May tripped over a piece of rope and a 98 fell over. Uncle Henry kept saying, “Are you all right, dear?” I think this is an interesting video and I like it very much.3. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.One day last June I was walking along the beach of a small seaside town where I live. I was looking at the ships in the harbour. Though the weather was sunny, it was a very cold day, and I could h__92__ feel the sunshine on the beach. I planned to have a swim when I left home, but now I changed my mind.

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）Obamas‟ $1 Allowance（零花钱）: How Much Do You Pay Your Kids?Many children in America try to find the jobs in their holidays to earn their pocket money, including Presid ent Obama‟s daughters Sasha and Malia. Obama gives his seven and ten-year-old daughters just a dollar a week each for the jobs they do. They help to do housework such as setting the table, washing dishes, and c 92 their play areas and bedrooms.Some people question if it is r 93 to give children allowances in this way. But most of the American parents believe that everyone in the family should be responsible for the housework. The people who agree with this point say that kids shouldn‟t just ge t allowances for n94 , and that such payments can help kids learn it is not easy to get money -- this is the first l95 of their money management skills. Most of the children in America are allowed to spend their allowances on the things they like. Many people think that kids can start receiving allowances around ages 4 or 5, when children start to understand how money w 96 in life.How much should the children get from their jobs is another problem, e 97 in these tough economic times (经济困难时期). One way here can help the parents to make the decision: write down how much you spend on your child daily for two weeks and set an a 98 based on (基于) the average daily expenses. Then you will get the answer.6. D. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (14分)Two American scientists told the people in industrial nations that they would be much healthier if they ate more of the same kind of foods eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.The scientists say that the human body has changed very l 92 since human first appeared on earth, but the way we live has changed greatly. Our body has not been able to deal with these changes in life style and this has led to new kinds of d 93 . These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times. So they are called “diseases of civilization（文明）”.Many cancers and diseases of the blood system, including heart attacks and strokes（中风）are examples of such diseases. Scientists noted that early stone-age people used very little alcohol（酒精）or tobacco (烟草), probably none. Ancient people also got a great deal of physical e 94 , but a change in food is one of the main differences b 95 life in ancient times and life today. Stone-age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than farm animals. They also ate a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits. They did not use m 96 and other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. But today, we eat a lot of dairy products and grain foods. We eat six times more salt than stone-age people. We eat more sugar. We eat twice as much fat but much l 97 vitamin C.People today probably do not w 98 to live as people thousands of years ago did, but scientists say that we would be much healthier if we ate as those ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet foods.7. D. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）The Amazon (亚马逊) rainforest is home to millions of different kinds of animals, plants, and birds. Most of the world‟s fresh water is here and the forest plants clean the Earth‟s air every day.Chico was born near the Amazon town, Brazil (巴西), in 1944 and started working when he was very young. Like the r 92 of his family, the boy got the money by taking a little rubber (橡胶) from the trees in the forest. The forest and its people lived together comfortably and peacefully.But some people think too much about the p 93 and never think about the future. In 1980, the forest was burned to build roads, houses and factories. Chico was angry; he wanted to save the forest! He talked to the government workers, but they didn‟t listen to him. They were still clearing the rainforests to make quick, easy money. “Many voices are s 94 than one,” he thought, so Chico held group meetings. He discovered that hundreds of people agreed with him. His hope g 95 . More people came together to try to stop the work of the forest clearers. Large areas of the forest were saved. Later he traveled to many other countries for i 96 help.People soon became very much interested in this brave Brazilian. In the next few years Chico‟s name became famous all over the world. The government of Brazil started making plans to protect large areas of the Amazon rainforest. But as Chico‟s dreams started coming true, someone stopped him in the o 97 possible way. The famous forest fighter was murdered (谋杀) right outside his home on December 22, 1988. Chico‟s life was cut short, but his brave new ideas continued in other people. One man c 98 the world‟s ideas. After his death, people around the world sent money to help Chico‟s work.8. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）Americans think that travel is good for people. Some even think it can help one of the country‟s worst problem—crime. (犯罪) Crime worries a lot of people. Every year, the n 92 of crimes goes up and up. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all. There are problems with drugs. (毒品) There are many young criminals (罪犯) in prison.But prison doesn‟t change them--60 to 70 percent will go b 93 to crime when theycome out of prison. One man, Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a hard life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave, and to help their friends in time of danger. This helped them to grow into m 94 . So Bob started “Vision Quest” (幻想探究).He takes young criminals on a long, long j 95 with horses and wagons (马车) 3,000 miles through 7 states. They are on the road for more than one year. The young people on Vision Quest all have bad problems. Most of them have already s 96 time in prison.This is their last chance. It‟s hard work on the road. The day starts before the sun comes up. The boys and the girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before, b 97 they can love their horses. That love can help them to start a new life. Not all young people in Vision Quest will leave crime behind them. 30 or 40 percent will one day be in prison a 98 . But that‟s a lot better than 60 or 70 percent. Bob is right. Travel can be good for them.9. D. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）Let me tell you a story. One of my good friends lives with six hundred animals on the Greek Island of Kyklos. There is not enough water on the island, t 92 there is a lot all around it.

He writes books about his travels, and about his wonderful animals that he collects.The money from his books helps him to p 94 for all the food that these animals eat. My friend told me that when he was out looking for water last week , he found oil. He n 95 money for his travels, and for his zoo, and a little oil can buy enough water for a long time, but he knows that if he tells anybody else about it, it will be the e 96 of his zoo and his life‟s work. So I think he will not tell anybody e 97 you and me about what he found — because oil and water can‟t be put toge ther . Oil may bring g 98 trouble to his animals than not having enough water . Do you think so?10. D. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）My old friend, Harrison, a British gentleman, was a retired banker.

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）Shanghaihua (上海话)：use it or lose itThere are about 6.000 languages in the world and some experts say that as many as half of these languages will disappear in the next one hundred years. Will Shanghaihua be one of t (92) ? It‟s a question that mo re people are asking.In China, Putonghua is the official language. That m (93) it‟s the language of government, business and the media（媒体）. And it‟s also the language that is used in schools.Shanghai is a special city. It is modern, fashionable and sophisticated (老练的). And Shanghaihua shows that by being modern, fashionable and sophisticated.“I love riding on the b (94) and listening to people speaking Shanghaihua.” Miss Evans, an American reporter said. “ I don‟t understand a word they are sayin g but I like the sound of the language. It sounds smoother than Putonghua. And Shanghainese like things “renao”（热闹）so even a discussion about the weather can sound like an argument or a party. My bus rides are a (95) interesting.”Young people still speak Shanghaihua but not as well as their parents and grandparents. They are under more and more pressure（压力）to speak Putonghua. So the language is being used l (96) often in everyday life. Some people want to keep the language from disappearing completely by building museums and having cultural festivals to save it.But a language isn‟t a painting or a book. It‟s a living thing and you e(97) use it or lose it. If people stop using it in their d (98) lives, a museum or a festival will not help. It will be lost forever , like the Yangtze River dolphin.13.

The soldier took it. The nurse brought a chair so that the soldier could sit by the bed.Nights are long in hospitals, b 93 all through the night, the young man sat there in the ward (病房), holding the old man‟s hand and offeri ng him words of love and encouragement. Sometimes, the nurse suggested that the young man move away and rest a while, but he r 94 . Whenever the nurse came into the ward, the soldier was oblivious (遗忘的) of her and of the night noises of the hospital.Now and then, she heard him say a few gentle words. The dying man said n 95 , only holding tightly to his son‟s hand all through the night.Early in the morning, the old man died. The soldier went to tell the nurse. While she did what she had to do, he waited. Finally, she returned. She started to offer words of sympathy (同情), but the soldier stopped her. “That‟s not n 96 …. Who was that man?” he asked.The nurse was s 97 . “He was your father,” she answered. “No, he wasn‟t,” the soldier replied. “I never saw him before in my life.”“Then why didn‟t you say something when I took you to him?”“I knew right away that there had been a m 98 , but I also knew he needed his son, and his son just wasn‟t here. When I realized that he‟s too sick to tell w hether or not I was his son, and that how much he needed me, I stayed.”14. D. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）More and more Japanese teenagers read novels on mobile phones（手机）, n___92____ on the paper.

The movie industry is big business, b 93 things are not as good as they should be for movie makers.In addition to competition from other forms of entertainment—television, computer games, etc.—there is the problem of illegal download（下载）of films.

Fina lly, the MPAA and Ben‟s family agreed about the best thing to do. Ben said he was s 96 in front of 100 students from the seventh and eighth grade at his school, Maple Dale School in Racine. Ben warned students not to download movies or computer games w 97 paying for them. “My grandpa had much t 98 because of me,” said Ben. “I‟m here to tell you that download is wrong, and we shouldn‟t do it.16.

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.(A)The big screen is never short of films about World WarⅡ. When Nazi Germany is featured in these films, cruel Nazi officers and brutal concentration（集中营）camps most often represent it. But the new Hollywood movie Valkyrie tells a different story, “a chapter of German history which is little known abroad”, according to the German Cultural Minister Bernd Neumann.Valkyrie is based on a true incident that took place in 1944. Colonel(陆军上校) Stauffenberg had been a loyal soldier for his entire military career. However, after losing an eye, a hand, and three fingers in an Allied bombing, he reached breaking point. The destruction that his country had brought to its European neighbors had become too terrible for the colonel to bear in silence. He hoped that someone would find a way to stop Adolf Hitler, one of the most evil tyrants（暴君）the world has ever known. Realizing that time was running out, he decided that he must take action himself and joined the German resistance. These men drew up Operation Valkyrie, a plot to assassinate(刺杀) Hitler and to overthrow his Nazi government from the inside. This plot is what the film is named after and focuses on.The Hollywood star Tom Cruise plays the lead role. “This was a very challenging film to make. We carried a huge responsibility to correctly portray history,” Cruise said.However, the production has drawn criticism for lacking depth and for simplifying the motives behind the plot.65. The passage tells us that Valkyrie is _____.A. a story written by Bernd NeumanB. a chapter in a German history bookC. a movie about Nazi concentration campsD. a movie about a plan to assassinate Hitler66. What does the sentence “he reached breaking point” probably mean?A. He narrowly escaped being killed.B. H e couldn’t reach out his arm for anything.C. He was rewarded for his brave attempts.D. He decided to make a historic change in life.67. Why did Tom Cruise say the film was challenging for him?A. Because he never acted in such kind of film before.B. Because he knew little about this episode of history.C. Because he felt it a heavy task to present the real history.D. Because he was afraid that the film might draw criticism.68. The following passage will probably talk about _____.A.the reason why the film is named after ValkyrieB.the comments from the movie critics on ValkyrieC.the praises from audience after watching ValkyrieD.the importance of the role Cruise plays in Valkyrie(B)New Zealand Education♦Compulsory EducationCompulsory education starts at age 5 and ends at age 16. The day children turn 5, they are expected to start school. They can leave school as soon as they reach 16.♦Class SizeThe maximum number of students in a class is 30 students.♦ClassroomsStudents from year 0—8 stay in the same classroom for most subjects and move to other classrooms only for specific subjects. Even when they move from one classroom to another, they mostly stay together as a class. In year 9, students take some courses with their homeroom class and some optional classes with students from different classes. Starting from year 10, students no longer stay in the same classroom most of the time nor do they move around with their classes. They go to different classes based on their own choice and abilities.♦Term DatesA school year starts in January and ends in December. There are four terms in a year. Each term is about 10 weeks.♦Class ScheduleSchool starts at around 8:30 and ends at 15:15. There are only five periods a day and a period is about an hour long. In the morning, around 10:30, there will be a 20—30 minute interval when students and staff have morning tea. Students usually have some snacks during this time, and staff gathers in the staff room to drink coffee and eat some snacks. There is a lunch period at around 12:40 for about an hour.♦TeachersIn New Zealand, teachers have to teach students of different year level at the same time. Most teachers teach students from at least three to four different year levels. In addition, quite a number of teachers teach more than one subject. This is mainly due to the fact that many courses are optional.69. This passage is most probably taken from _____.A.an educational bookletB. a school websiteC. a traveling guideD.an academic report70. When you are in your 10th school year, you may _____.A. stay with your classmates in the same classroom for all the subjectsB. choose and take some optional courses with your homeroom classC. have both required and optional classes with the same classmatesD. choose different classes based on your own choice and abilities71. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. You are obliged to leave school when you are 16 in New Zealand.B. The total of school time per year is about 40 weeks in New Zealand.C. Students have a 20—30 minute interval between each period in New Zealand.D. Most teachers in New Zealand teach one subject for at least three to four years.( C )Winter is a great time to experiment with new sports. The key is to find one that matches your interests and natural abilities. If you like to walk, keep walking — on snowshoes. If you want to try an endurance sport, go for cross-country skiing. Besides, snowboarding is just great fun.Not satisfied with these? Try downhill skiing, then. Downhill skiing is not as hard as it used to be — shorter, lightweight, curved skis make any beginner feel like an Olympic winner. These newer skis — along with another type of equipment called skiboards, which are even shorter than skis — help you control your speed and body movements.Consider testing the latest high-tech skis or snowboards？Check with your local sports shops or the rental places at the ski mountains about sample programs.You could also try sledding. Use a wood-framed sled with steel runners or a plastic sled to head down a snowy hill. If you prefer ice to snow, think hockey or figure skating.Runners can also train during the winter in spite of wet or slippery roads. One of the easiest sports around, snowshoeing can be excellent cold-weather cross-training for runners and cyclists —or anyone wanting to take a wintry walk in the woods. Snowshoes are smaller, lighter, and better than ever. If you want to try them out, you may be able to rent a pair for a day at many of the larger outdoor or sporting goods stores.Whatever sport you choose, don’t rely on a friend for instructio n. You wouldn’t let an inexperienced doctor perform a brain operation on you, but why let one teach you to ski or skate? That’s what instructors are for — to help newcomers start out right. Instructors can give you advice about equipment, techniques, safety, and dealing with injuries if they do happen to you.Above all, if you want to progress, invest your time in learning the basic skills thoroughly. Everything else you do as a skier, boarder, or skater will be built on these first skills.72.How many different types of sports are mentioned in the first two paragraphs?A. Six.B. Five.C. Four.D. Three.73.What can we learn from the passage?A. Runners and cyclists cannot train because of the wet or slippery roads in winter.B. Downhill skiing used to be more difficult to learn because of the old-fashioned skis.C. People can rent snowshoes for a day at their local sports shops or the rental places.D. In general, first skills are more important in skiing than in snowboarding or skating.74.What does the sentence “You wouldn’t let an inexperienced doctor perform a brainoperation on you, but why let one teach you to ski or skate?” imply?A. Don’t let an inexperienced doctor perform an operation on you when injured.B. You may have a brain operation if you ski or skate with a newcomer.C. Instructors can give better advice on skiing and skating than your friends do.D. It’s dangerous to have an inexpert person teach you to ski or skate.75.Who are the most likely readers of the passage?A. High school students.B. Physical educators.C. Winter sports lovers.D. Professional athletes.(D)As I was thinking about language learning the other day, the image of baking bread came into my mind. I compared some of the exercises and drills that we put ourselves through in order to learn a language to the various ingredients(原料) that go into baking a loaf of fresh bread.Real language learning takes place in human relationships. No one sits down and eats a cup of flour, even if he is hungry and in a hurry. You don’t become bilingual(双语的) by learning lists of vocabulary. You don’t become a speaker of a language by memorizing verb conjugations (动词的变化) and agreement rules. You become bilingual by entering a community that uses that other language as its primary means of communication.I am not suggesting that we can make bread without ingredients. Flour is necessary, as are yeast（酵母）, salt, water and other ingredients. Vocabulary is part of any language and will have to be learned. Grammatical rules exist in every language and cannot be ignored. But merely combining the appropriate ingredients in the recommended proportions does not result in bread. At best, you only end up with a ball of dough(面团).In order to get bread, you have to apply heat to the dough. And in language learning, that heat comes from the community. Anyone who has learned a second language has experienced that heat. It creeps up your neck when you ask the babysitter, “Have you already been eaten?” when you meant to say, “Have you already eaten?” When you try to say something quite innocent and the whole room bursts into laughter, you are experiencing the heat that turns raw dough into good bread.Remember the old saying, “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen”? This is where language learning often breaks down because we find the heat uncomfortable and we stop the baking process. In order words, we can’t stand the heat, so we get out of the kitchen.However, the language learner who stays in the kitchen—in the heat—until the combined ingredients are thoroughly transformed will enjoy the richness of a quality loaf of bread. He is lad that he did not “get out of the kitchen” at the critical moment when the oven seemed too hot. The dedicated language learner knows that becoming bilingual cannot be achieved without the heat!76. The passage is mainly about _____.A.how we can make baking bread with various ingredientsB.how to become bilingual by communicating with othersC.what an important role “heat” plays in learning a languageD.what a high quality of bread you may achieve in the kitchen77. You can become a speaker of a language by _____.A. bearing millions of words and expressions in your mindB. using the language to communicate with those around youC. knowing verb conjugations and grammatical rulesD. saying something innocent to be laughed at by others78. What’s the purpose of illustration of the example—you ask the babysitter, “Have you alreadybeen eaten?” when you meant to say, “Have you already eaten?”?A. To verify that you are sure to make some mistakes when you enter a community.B. To show that you should combine the ingredients in the recommended proportions.C. To prove that you may experience “heat” from the community in language learning.D. To indicate that being bilingual calls for your courage, confidence and perseverance.79. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the necessity of baking bread andlearning language?A.Excellent Skills.B.Various ingredients.C.Appropriate proportions.D.Uncomfortable heat.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.A. The secret of the writer’s successB. A writer with enduring popularityC. Well-received creation to encourage BritsD. The insight into human natureE. Writing styles in different stagesF. The stories appropriate for school students80.Charles Dickens is often thought of as one of England’s greatest writers. Yet for many his language is old-fashioned and his story plots often improbable. Why, Dickens, out of so many other great English writers, has made the list? How then to explain Dickens’s enduring popularity?81.One reason undoubtedly is the British government’s insistence that every child studies a Dickens novel at school. Alongside William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens is a compulsory(必读的) writer on every English literature school reading list. His stories, though often over-long by today’s standard, are superbly written moral tales. They are filled with colorful characters.82.But what makes his books stand out from other English writers is his insight into human nature. Dickens, like Shakespeare, tells us truths about human behavior that are as true to citizens of the 21st century as they were to his readers in the 19th century. Readers have returned to Dickens’s books again and again over the years to see what he has to say about readers’ own time.83.The BBC adapted one of his less well-known novels, Little Dorrit, into a popular television drama that introduced many Brits to the novel for the first time. A dark story about greed and money, it was the perfect story to illustrate the bad times. No surprise then that it was Dickens Britons turned to, during the economic crisis last year, to make sense of a world rapidly falling apart.84.Readers of the 19t h and early 20th century usually prized Dickens’s earlier novels for their humor and pathos. While recognizing the virtues of these books, critics today tend to rank more highly the later works because of their formal coherence and acute perception of the human condition. For as long as Dickens’s novels have something to say to modern audiences, it seems likely that he will remain one of Britain’s best loved writers.第Ⅱ卷I.

The pandas, Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan, are not only a gift from the mainland but also friendship ambassadors (大使) to Taiwan. Two staff members from the Wolong Nature Reserve (卧龙自然保护区) went to Taiwan together with the pandas. They also took a week’s worth of the pandas’ favourite food, such as fresh bamboo, for giant pandas only eat bamboo shoots and leaves,they6never eat meat.Taipei Zoo prepared well for the four-year-old national treasure. To be familiar with the pandas, five staff members from the zoo had worked with them in Sichuan for some time. The new panda house covers an area of 5,500 square metres. Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan live in two rooms with air conditioning . They also enjoy a 765-square-metre garden. And 35 workers, as well as a lot of volunteers, are ready to serve the famous pair.

Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors (87) which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good news story?Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also (88) story in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV .Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don ’t want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kinds of (89) and seem to be “bad ” news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safety, (90) they print stories about plane accidents.Another factor(因素) is also very important in many news stories .Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their(91) country.

Willard was completely a loner who seemed to have no desire or need to break his barrier (障碍) of silence.Shortly after the Thanksgiving holiday, we received the word of the annual Christmas collection of money for the less fortunate people in our school district.“Christmas is a season of giving,” I told my students. “There are a few student s in the school who might not have a happy holiday season. By contributing to our Christmas collection, you will help buy food, clothing and toys for these needy people. We start the collection tomorrow.”When I called for the contributions the next day, I discovered that almost everyone had forgotten, except for Willard P. Franklin. The boy dug deep into his pants pockets as he strolled up to my desk. Carefully, he dropped two quarters into the small container.“I don’t need any milk for lunch,” he said very quietly. For a moment, just a moment, he smiled. Then he turned and walked back to his desk.After school, I took our meager (少量的) contributions to the school principal. I couldn’t help sharing the incident that had taken place.“I may be wrong, but I believe Willard might be getting ready to become a part of the world9around him,” I told the principal.“Yes, I believe it sounds hopeful,” he nodded. “And I think that we might do well to have him share a bit of his world with us. I just received a list of the poor families in our school who most need help through the Christmas collection. Here, take a look at it.”As I gazed down to read, I found Willard P. Franklin and his family were the top names on the list.Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）: ( 14分)99. Which word did Willard P. Franklin’s teacher and his classmates get from him?100.

The awards have been presented 41 (the first awards ceremony was held in May of 1929) by a non-profit professional organization —the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), 42 in Beverly Hills, California, and founded in 1927. Ever since 1941, when the now-famous confidential (机密的) envelope system was 43 , marking the first year of complete secrecy, “the Envelope Please” has become a familiar44that calls up the thought of the Academy Awards ceremony.Except for the early years of the institution, the awards honored films made during the previous 12-month 45 year. Until 1954, the Oscars were presented mostly on a Thursday evening. From 1955 to 1958, they were presented on a Wednesday. From 1959 until 1998 the Oscars were, with a few exceptions, presented on a Monday night. Only since 1999 has the Awards ceremony taken place on a Sunday ( 46 in March). In 2004, the ceremony was moved even earlier to improve ratings and to be more 47 to the awards “season”.The establishment of the Academy (and its awards system) has had a major effect and influence upon the film industry. The Academy has, with limited success, tried to 48 the influences of promotion, box office gross receipts, and studio public relations and 49 on voting results.III.

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)A wallet misplaced during a romantic embrace has been returned to its forgetful owner after55 years.Two classic car collectors from the US state of Idaho found the wallet after it fell out of the back of a vintage (旧式的) car they were planning to restore. After an Internet search they found and contacted the owner, Glenn Goodlove. Mr. Goodlove said he probably lost the wallet in the back seat of his 1946 Hudson car while kissing a girl when he was home on leave from the US Navy.Jon Beck, 61, and Chuck Merrill, 72, bought the now-vintage vehicle in Idaho after placing an ad in a local newspaper to buy a classic car in need of restoration. Driving the car home after buying it, the collectors stopped at a restaurant and saw something from below the back seat.“Like a couple of kids, we thought we had a goldmine,” Mr. Beck said. Instead, they found some small change —the leather wallet held a $10 bill, Mr. Goodlove’s military ID, his social s ecurity card, his driver’s l icence and several jewellery receipts from 1952. But they were all in the name of Glenn Putnam.After searching online, Mr. Beck discovered that Mr. Putnam had since changed his name to Glenn Goodlove and moved to San Diego, California. He called Mr. Goodlove, asking to speak to a man who used to drive a ’46 Hudson.“There was a silence for about 15 seconds,” Mr. Beck told the Twin Falls Times-News. “Then he said, ‘Who is that?’” Mr. Goodlove, now 75, says he did not even remember losing the wallet, but t he find has brought memories of his youth in Everett, Washington, flooding back. “I could see the house and the car and the town and all the good stuff from living there,” he said. “They’ve been flowing ever since he talked to me.”65. The lost wallet contained all the following EXCEPT ______.A. some moneyB. some jewelleryC. some receiptsD. some cards66. Which of the following happened last?A. The vintage car was purchased.B. An advertisement was placed.C. Mr. Goodlove’s name was changed.D. Some personal belongings were found.67. What difference did the wallet make to Glenn?A. He gained unexpected wealth.B. He got back his lost car as well.C. He improved his poor memory a lot.D. He recalled what had long been forgotten.68. The most proper title for the passage is ______.A. A Forgetful Wallet OwnerB. Two Car Collectors and a Good DeedC. Price Paid for RomanceD. Lost Wallet Found after 55 Years(B)VEGAN CHARITIES AND GOOD CAUSESThese are tough times for the charities, many of which will be experiencing lower levels of donations —so if you can support them please do.HIPPOHIPPO is dedicated to relieving poverty and overcoming hunger and malnutrition in poor countries through the provision and production of vegan food. They help vegan orphanages and some of the poorest families in the community, and encourage and assist the development of sustainable (可持续的) agriculture and gardening.Plants for a FuturePlants for a Future (a project based in Cornwall) researches perennial (四季不断的), eatable and useful plants for sustainable agriculture / living.

What do all the charities and causes have in common?A. They all deal with animal welfare.B. They are all in need of donations.C. They all provide aid in animal caring.D. They are all about diet and health.(C)Ghostwriters are widely used by celebrities or public figures who wish to publish their autobiographies (自传). The degree of involvement of the ghostwriter in nonfiction writing projects ranges from minor to significant. Various sources explain the role of the ghostwriter and how competent (能胜任的) writers can get this kind of work. In some cases, a ghostwriter may be called in just to clean up, edit, and polish a rough draft of an autobiography or a “how-to” book. In other cases, the ghostwriter will write an entire book or article based on information, stories, notes, and an outline, interviews with the celebrity or public figure. The credited authors also indicate to the ghostwriter what type of style, tone, or “voice” they want in the book.Celebrity books are usually ghostwritten in the first person (I did this and that) or the third person (David Pardon asked the group to recommend someone etc.).In some cases, such as with some “how-to” books, diet guides, or cookbooks, a book will be entirely written by a ghostwriter, and the celebrity (e.g., a well-known musician or sports star) will be credited as author. Publishing companies use this method to increase the marketability of a book by associating it with a celebrity or well-known figure. In several countries before elections, candidates employ ghostwriters to produce autobiographies for them so as to gain visibility and exposure. Two of John F. Kennedy’s books were almost entirely ghostwritten. Former President Ronald Reagan also released a ghostwritten autobiography.A consultant or career-switcher may pay to have a book ghostwritten on a topic in their pro fessional area, to establish or enhance their credibility as an “expert” in their field. For example, a successful salesperson hoping to become an inspiring speaker on selling may pay a ghostwriter to write a book on sales techniques. Often this type of book is published in the vanity press, which means that the author is paying to have the book published. This type of book is typically given away to potential clients (客户) as a promotional tool, rather than being sold in bookstores.72. A ghostwriter does all the following EXCEPT ______ for his client, according to the passage.A. correct a piece of writingB. write a complete bookC. improve a written articleD. interview a celebrity73. By using “this method” (paragraph 3), the writer means ______.A. celebrities may help to increase salesB. celebrities may shift into ghostwritersC. authors may sometimes become celebritiesD. celebrities may pay publishers for promotion74. It is implied in the passage that ______.A. vanity presses are illegalB. ghostwriters work behind the sceneC. books by ghostwriters don’t sellD. celebrities can’t do without ghostwriters75. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about ghostwriters?A. People who employ them.B. Responsibilities they take on.C. Challenges their work involves.D. Reasons why they ghostwrite.(D)Schools have been blamed for giving kids access to soda in vending machines (自动售货机). But new data suggest that school soft drink sales may not be an important factor in how much soda kids drink.In the current issue of The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior, researchers compared soda consumption among nearly 500 students in Maine who attended seven schools over two school years. Four of the schools cut back on soft drink availability at the schools, while three of the schools made no changes.All the students were drinking less soda by the end of the study period, but there were no meaningful differences in overall soft drink consumption among the different schools. The data suggest that limit ing soft drink availability at school doesn’t result in meaningful changes in drink consumption patterns. While there were no changes in overall soda consumption, there was a notable shift in diet soda drinking among girls. If the school cut back on soda availability, girls were less likely to drink diet soda, compared to girls in schools that made no changes.The data are the latest to suggest that schools may not play as big of a role in kids’ poor eating habits as widely believed. Last year, The American Journal of Public Health published a provocative (引起争论的) study showing that childhood weight problems often get worse in the summer, when kids are out of school.Data from kindergarteners and first graders found that body mass index (指数) increased two to three times as fast in summer as during the regular school year. Minority children were especially at risk, as were children who were already overweight.Even children who were too thin and needed to gain weight appeared to have better eating habits during the school year. They actually gained more weight while in school and less in the summer.Even so, much of the focus on childhood nutrition and obesity (肥胖) remains in the nation’s schools. Today, The Times reported that even the school bake sale is disappearing as districts impose strict standards on the food served on school grounds.76. What can be learned from The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior?A. Soft drink remains a problem in schools.B. Girls tend to consume less soda at school.C. Soft drinks may not to be blame for eating problems.D. Vending machines are not available in all schools.77. Better eating habits may be best developed ______.A. during summerB. on schooldaysC. with less soda availabilityD. in attempts for weight-gain78. The writer voices his opinion by ______.A. conducting scientific researchB. comparing two journalsC. criticizing wrong beliefsD. referring to ready data79. Which of the following can best summarize the passage?A. Schools are to blame for kid s’ nutrition problems.B. Schools have made changes for a better reputation.C. Kid s’ poor eating habit has little to do with schools.D. A lot has been done regarding kids’ nutrition and obesity.Section 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. Make plans.B. Give yourself a break.C. Expect the unexpected.D. Remember what matters.E. Remind yourself that doing things takes time.F. Try to figure out why you will lose your patience.80.We tend to lose our patience when we’re multi-tasking or when we’re on a tight schedule. If you’re stretching yourself too thin, you should reconsider your to-do list before you attempt to change your natural reaction to an overwhelming situation. Try to spread out your tasks so that you’re doin g only one thing at a time. Pass on responsibilities to others if you can; this in itself may be a test of your patience, but you have to learn to share the load.81.People who are impatient are people who insist on getting things done now and don’t li ke to waste time. However, some things just can’t be rushed. Think about your happiest memories. Chances are, they were instances when your patience paid off, like when you worked steadily towards a goal that wasn’t immediately gratifying, or took a little extra time to spend leisurely with a loved one. Good things may not always come to those who wait, but most good things that do come don’t come right away.82.Yes, you have plans, but things don’t always work out as planned. Accept the twist s and turns in life gracefully. Keep your expectations realistic. This applies not only to circumstances, but also the behavior of those around you. If you find yourself blowing up over your child or your spouse accidentally spilling a drink, you’re not in touch with the fact that people aren’t perfect. Even if the occasion is not an isolated incident but is instead caused by their repeated neglect and carelessness, losing your patience isn’t going to make it any better. That’s something to be addressed with discussion and self-control.83.First, take a few minutes to do absolutely nothing. Just sit quietly and think. Don’t watch television; don’t even read. Do nothing. It may be hard at first, and you may even feel pretty impatient after a minute or two, but by taking some time out you can essentially slow your world down, and that’s important to develop the attitude necessary to develop patience. Second, stop holding yourself and the world around you to unreachable standards. Sure, we’d all be more patient if bab ies didn’t cry, dishes didn’t break, computers didn’t crash, and people didn’t make mistakes —but that’s never going to happen. Expecting the world to run smoothly is like beating your head against the wall.84.Not focusing on what matters most in this life fuels impatience. Move the world toward peace by being kind, generous in forgiveness of others, being grateful for what is, and taking full advantage of what matters most. When other less important things fuel our impatience, taking time to remember any one of these items reduces our tendency to want something different right now.第II卷I.

They hit one another hard. At the start they only ___41____ with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes through a window and fallsthirty feet to the ground below. He is dead！Of course he isn't___42___ dead. With any luck heisn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from ___43___moving trains, who crash cars of even ___44___ fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called ___45___. That is to say, they perform tricks.There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building.

The left hand is supposed to be 52 forwashing yourself. Also in India, you might 53 a man apparently shaking his head at another and assume that he is disagreeing. But in many 54 of India a shake of the head is a gesture that shows agreement or acceptance. Nodding your head when you are offered a 55 in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to indicate"yes" — a nod indicates "no". The Arabs are 56 for their hospitality（好客）. At a meal in the Arabic countries, you will find that any drinking vessel（器皿）is filled again 57again as soon as you drain it.

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.(A)To learn English well you must learn about yourself. You must discover what your own special needs are in English. You should pick out what makes English different from your own language and concentrate on those parts. And above all, you should pick out your own personal weaknessesin English, pick out your own special problems, find out what mistakes you most often make and make a list of them.It will be best if, in your preparation, you can practise doing the various sorts of work you will be asked to do in examination. You should then make a careful note of any mistakes you make more than once. Count up how many times you make each mistake, and the mistake you make most often should be at the top of your list, the next most common in second place, and so on.For example, if your own language is Japanese, you may find the problem of articles comes at the top of your list. If you speak German, you may find using some of the conjunctions is your biggest problem. If your mother tongue is French, you find you are always having trouble with some of prepositions. And if Italian is your language, you may constantly forget to use a suitable pronoun when you should.But these are only examples of mistakes typical of certain languages. They may or may not be your particular personal mistakes. As I say, these personal ones are the most important of all to discover.65. To learn English well the most important thing is to _____.A. learn about yourself as much as possibleB. discover your own special needs in the languageC. find out the difference between your own language and EnglishD. pick out your own personal weaknesses in English66. The writer advises the readers to _____.A. spend as much time on English as possibleB. take examinations of various sortsC. find out their own problems in doing selected exercisesD. keep a notebook with the important languages points in it67. The first item on the list should be the mistake you make _____.A. more than onceB. many timesC. most oftenD. very often(B)In recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. Butdo more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? There is evidence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the workers' life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder.As far as increasingOther experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it. Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is the degree of workers' contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can doTo what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselvescertainly think this is important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter wor68.Which of these possible factors leading to greater productivity is not true?D.69. Why do ________D. To70.The last sentence in this passage means that if we succeed in making workers' jobs more interesting,D. morC. to a certain extent more money(C)Dalian Medical University (Dlmedu) is a famous university both in China and in the world.

More than that,though,he has also interfered with the invisible bonds between the living things in the forests. There are many examples of this kind of destruction. The harmfulness of man’s interference can be seen in what happened many years ag o in the forest of the Kaibabplateau （凯亚巴布高原）of northern Arizona. Man tried to improve on the natural web of forestlife and destroyed it instead.The Kaibab had a storybook forest of largesized pine,Douglas fir,white fir,blue and Engelmann spruce. In 1882 a visitor noted,"We,who have wandered through its forests andparks,have come to regard it as the most enchanting region it has ever been our privilege to visit."This was also the living place of the Rocky Mountain mule deer. Indians hunted there every autumn to gather meat and skins. The forest also had mountain lions,timber wolves and bobcats that kept the deer from multiplying too rapidly.Then,in 1906,President Theodore Roosevelt made the Kaibab a national game preserve. Deer hunting was fo rbidden. Government hunters started killing off the deer’s enemies. In 25 years’ time,6,250 mountain lions,wolves and bobcats were killed. Before the program,there were about 4,000 deer in the Kaibab,by 1924,there were about 100,000.The deer ate every leaf and twig they could reach. But there was not nearly enough food.Hunting of deer was permitted again. This caused a slight decrease in the deer herd，but a fargreater loss resulted from starvation and disease. Some 60 percent of the deer herd died in two winters. By 1930 the herd had dropped to 20,000 animals. By 1942 it was down to 8,000.76.The destruction of the environment of the Kaibab resulted from _________.A.turning the forest into cultivated landB.interfering with natural cycle of forest lifeC.forest fires caused by man’s carelessnessD.cutting the trees for building materials77."Engelmann spruce"（Para. 2）is most likely the name of__________ .A.a treeB.an animalC.a mountainD.a game78.The number of the deer in the Kaibab had increased enormously in ______ years’ time.A.25B.6C.18D.1279.Years later,large numbers of deer in the Kaibab died mainly because of ________.A.the coldB.the organized killC.the shortage of foodD.the poor managementSection 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.A. Go localB. Enjoy yourselfC. Know your goalsD. Leave time for new findingsE. Pack light and rightF. Read up before you go80._________When you sit down to plan your holiday, the first step is to make sure you’re very clear about what you want to get out of it. Do you want an immersion in culture, or do you want to simply recharge your body batteries? Do you want to read a sack of novels or tango till dawn? Do you want extensive family bonding time or time for every member of the family to try things on their own?81._________Get a good guidebook or two and read up on the culture, history and attractions of the destination. Surf the Internet for more information; read local publications online. The more you know, the better you’ll be able to appreciate the place an d choose from the many options it presents. And the better you’ll understand all the new things—sights, issues, people, rituals you encounter.82._________Take clothes that are adaptable and cram everything you need into a carry-on bag if you can.Your heart will soar when you get to skip a line at the check-in counter when you arrive and breeze by passengers waiting for their bags.83._________Remember that the best moments of just about any trip are the unexpected ones. Leave plenty of time to visit an irresistible shop, have a long chat with an old-timer at a caféor go on an impromptu day trip with new-found friends to a secret local spot.84._________Eat where the locals eat; shop where they shop. Ask the hotel clerk for recommendations. On my last trip to Hawaii, I heard about a neighbourhood hula festival from a hotel clerk. I feasted on homemade bread and fried chicken, and watched a heart-warming hula. It’s one of my most treasured memories.
