On arrival, check in at the Holiday Inn Mayfair Court.DAY 2-4 SAMBURU AND TREETOPSSet off on safari, driving north, to the west of Mount Kenya and across the equator (赤道). 2 nights at Samburn Lodge, including afternoon and morning game drives. Continue south to the Aberdare Mountains and the world famous Treetops, where we arrive in time for tea on the rooftop platform, where you can watch the animals come down to the waterhole.DAY 5 LAKE NAIV ASHAContinue from Thomason's Falls to Lake Nakuru. As well as the interesting bird life, it is here that you will have the best chance of seeing the black rhino (犀牛). Overnight at the Lake Hotel, Naivasha.DAY 6-8 MASAI MARAAfter a restful morning in this lovely lakeside setting, we drive to the Masai Mara game area for a 3 night-stay at Keekerok Lodge. The vast plains of the Mara reach the Tanzanian border where they join the famous Serengeti, covering an area of over 6,000 square miles. The Mara is home to countless thousands of animals. Head out for morning and afternoon game drives.DAY 9 MASA MARA/NAIROBL/LONDONReturn to Nairobi for your overnight flight back to London.36 This text is written mainly for people interested in ______.[A] traveling long distance [B] spending nights outdoors[C] watching animals in the wild [D] seeing different kinds of plants37 Where do tourists stay the longest?[A] At Samburu Lodge. [B] At Keekerok Lodge.[C] At Lake Nakuru. [D] At the Aberdare Mountains.38 What is the main transport during the nine-day trip?[A] Plane. [B] Train. [C] Bus. [D] Boat.39 What does the underlined word "Serengeti" in Paragraph 4 refer to?[A] A hotel. [B] A team. [C] A plain. [D] A lake.Text2It's 8.00 am. James Butters gives 8-month-old Thomas his milk, then breakfast. After getting Thomas into his outdoor clothes, they head for the park to watch birds and play on the grass. With hitch time drawing near, they're back home for an afternoon of drawing, playing with cars, maybe watching some children's programs. James isn't Thomas' dad. He is a nanny (保姆)--a man nanny, obviously, interestingly termed a "manny"--specially trained and in his third nannying position. At 27, he cares for Thomas, and another boy of a similar age. "It's much freer than an office job," he says, "and you're getting to see children develop and grow. You become very close to them, for sure. I don't think I'm special or better than a woman nanny; everyone has their own method. But I'm unusual. Friends laughed when I started studying nursery nursing. In my class, I was the only man among 70 women. Somehow, I made it," he said. Although it's not yet common to find men in traditional (传统的) nannying courses, things are changing. In the United States, parents are employing young mannies, sometimes to care for babies, but more often as active role models to getjunior away from the TV and the computer. From rollerblading (轮滑) friends to summer swimming mannies, these are the big brothers who are always willing to play, largely because they're paid for it. It is catching on here in Britain, too. Earlier this year, Nofland nanny college welcomed its first full-time man student, 19-year-old Peter Cummins in Wales. While some families find it difficult to accept the idea of a young man in a traditional nannying role, man nannies are increasingly popular.40 Which of the following can be the best title for the text?[A] Changes in Tradition [B] A New Job for Men[C] Mannies and Women Nannies [D] Baby Boys and Their Mannies41 What does James like about his job as a nanny?[A] He has received encouragement from his friends.[B] He can easily do better than women nannies.[C] He has more freedom to plan his own work.[D] He is allowed to try out unusual methods.42 Why are young mannies becoming popular in the United States?[A] They are good at computer games.[B] They are better trained for their jobs.[C] They can get boys in more healthy activities.[D] They can protect the boys like big brothers.43 Who's going to become a new man nanny Soon?[A] James Butters. [B] Peter Cummins. [C] Thomas. [D] Norland.Text3Mobile Phone MannersMobile phones have changed the way we communicate (交流); they have also brought about problems in phone manners (礼仪). Gaik Lira, a Singapore-based advisor, has some advice on phone manners. When dealing with missed calls, the person being called should return the call. "Calls should be returned as soon as possible, and no later than the following day. Anything later than that, and an apology or a reason for the delay should go with the call. "Text messages should be kept short and to the point. If they go beyond four or five lines, call or email instead. "The use of short forms should be among family members and friends, never in a business situation. " Speak in a low voice as if you were talking to someone next to you. If the connection is bad, don't raise your voice in order to be heard, simply move to another place where the connection may be better. And if that doesn't work, tell the caller to call you back or offer to call at a later time. When a conversation is cut off due to a bad connection, the person who started the conversation should call back. "It may be inconvenient for the other person to return the call, especially if it's an unlisted number, or an overseas call. " When running late for a date or meeting, it is acceptable to text to inform that you'll be delayed. Messages should be apologetic. "A message like ' Sorry. Will be about 30 minutes late due to flight delay' is considered polite and thoughtful. " Taking calls during meetings is only acceptable if you have informed the chairperson that you are expecting an urgent (紧急的) call. If you get an unexpected but urgent call, apologize to those present and offer a quick explanation as to why youhave to take that call. Then leave the room to continue your phone conversation.44 What should one do if he has missed a call?[A] Text an apology to the caller. [B] Call back if it is from abroad.[C] Wait till the caller calls again. [D] Return the call as early as one can.45 Which of the following is considered acceptable?[A] Text an apology when late for a meeting.[B] Raise the voice when the connection is bad.[C] Answer a phone call quietly during a meeting.[D] Use the short forms in messages whenever possible.46 According to the text, you had better make a call when ______.[A] you are late for a meeting because of flight delay[B] your text message is more than five lines[C] your friend has moved to another place[D] you communicate with close friends47 What should one do if he's got an urgent call during a meeting?[A] Explain to the people present and then answer the call.[B] Cut the call off at once and apologize to the caller later.[C] Answer the call before apologizing to the chairperson.[D] Leave the room immediately to answer the call.Text4Samuel H. Preston, a sociologist at the University of Pennsylvania, studied how the American family is changing. He reported that by the time the average American couple reaches 40 years of age, they have more parents than children. This finding shows the change in lifestyles (生活方式) and duties of aging Americans. The average middle-aged couple can look forward to caring for elderly parents some time after their own children have grown up. Because Americans are living longer than ever, more researchers and social workers have begun to study care giving to improve care of the elderly. When people care for an elderly relative, they often do not use community (社区) services, such as adult (成人) daycare centres. If the care givers are adult children, they are more likely to use such services, especially because they often have jobs and other business. However, the wife of an elderly person is much less likely to use support services or to put the dependent person in a nursing home. Social workers discovered that the reason for this difference was fear of becoming poor. An ill elderly person may live for years, and medical care and nursing homes are very expensive. An elderly couple's savings can disappear very quickly.The other half, usually the wife, can be left in poor living conditions. As a result, she often tries to take care of her husband herself for as long as she can.48 An example of changes in American lifestyles is that ______.[A] they prefer to have more children[B] the elderly like living with their children[C] the middle-aged couples have different care giving duties[D] the average age for American couples to have children is 4049 Who are more likely to use community services to care for the elderly in thefamily?[A] The sick. [B] The poor. [C] The parents. [D] The adult children.50 According to the social workers' study, one of the problems that elderly people have to consider is ______.[A] jobs and businesses [B] living expenses[C] change of life-styles [D] separation from adult children51 What would be the best title for the text?[A] Care for the Elderly [B] The Best Community Services[C] The High Cost of Nursing Homes[D] How to Improve Parent-Child RelationshipsText5British scientists have been given ~ 1 million by the European Commission to find out if a robot (机器人) can safely be employed to stir (搅拌) soup. The research, based at the Bristol Robotics Lab (BRL), will look at the problems of a human and a robot working together in the same space; for example, in a kitchen where the service robot is performing a task such as stirring soup while you add cream.Professor Chris Melhuish explained, "When we work with other humans, we are trying to understand facial expression, body movements, quality of voice, as well as sharing a goal and understanding and following spoken instructions. ""For example, in the soup situation, not only does the robot need to know what the goal is ( making the soup) but he also needs to know how hard to stir the soup, what it means when you hold up your hand to say enough, to understand the look of pain on your face if you accidentally get wet with hot soup, and to stop stirring when told. The research aims to develop the rules we need to introduce this level of cleverness into service robots who are working closely with people. " Professor Melhuish, of the BRL, said robots working in factories at present are kept behind gates for safety reasons--a measure that is not practical in the kitchen. The research is a joint effort between robotic engineers and scientists from West of England and Bristol universities.52 According to Professor Melhuish, a service robot should be able to ______.[A] understand human instructions[B] show feelings by the looks on its face[C] follow the thoughts in its master's mind[D] express itself through body movements53 We can infer from the text that robots now ______.[A] are clever enough to make good soups[B] know the rules for working with humans[C] cannot work well when kept behind gates[D] do not understand human expressions of pain54 How are service robots at home different from those in factories?[A] They perform easier tasks. [B] They can work in small spaces.[C] They know human goals better. [D] They work closely with humans.55 The author seems to believe that ______.[A] tasks like soup-stirring are rather difficult for robots[B] one million pounds is quite enough for the study[C] robots should be tested first in the kitchen[D] robots will soon be working in factories四、写作(共1题，合计10分)56书面表达假定你是李明。

Someone you had great confidence in，surely．But several lines of research show that our instincts about where to mm to for counsel are often not completely correct．My research looks at prejudices that affect how people use advice，including why they often blindly follow recommendations from people who —as far as they know—are as knowledgeable as they are．In studies I conducted with Don Moore of Carnegie Mellon University，for example，I found mat people tend to overvalue advice when the problem they’re addressing is hard and to undervalue it when the problem is easy．In our experiments．subjects were asked to guess the weight of people in various pictures，some of which were in focus and some of which wereunclear．For each picture，subjects guessed twice：the first time without advice and the second time with input from another participant．When the pictures were in focus，we found，subjects tended to discount the advice；apparently，they were confident in their ability to guess correctly．When the pictures were unclear，subjects leaned heavily on me advice of others and seemed less secure about their initial opinion．Because they misjudged the value of the advice they received--consistently overvaluing or undervaluing it depending on the difficulty of the problem—our subjects did not make the best guesses overall．They would have done better if they’d considered the advice equally，and to a moderate degree，on both hard and easy tasks.Another advice—related prejudice I've found people compels to overvalue advice that they pay for．In one study conducted，subjects answered different sets of questions about American history．Before answering some of the questions, they could get advice on the correct answer from another subject whom they knew was no more expert than they were．In one version of the experiment，people could get advice for free，while in another version，they paid for it．When they paid for advice，people tended to have firm belief in it，I suspect，by a combination of sunk-cost prejudice and the nearly instinctual belief that cost and quality are linked．51．In the face of a mission—critical decision，people tend to __________．[A]trust their own efforts[B]rely on research findings[C]get affected by other’s opinion[D]seek help from the more knowledgeable52．Research shows that when faced with difficult problems people often __________．[A]discount others’ advice[B]overlook others’ advice[C]disagree with others’ advice[D]over-rely on others’ advice53．The first experiment tries to prove how objective conditions __________．[A]strengthen people’s initial opinion[B]strengthen people’s self-confidence[C]influence people’s response to advice[D]influence people’s guess of weight loss54．It can be inferred that people are likely to __________．[A]undervalue free advice[B]overvalue peer’s advice[C]misinterpret specialist’s advice[D]misjudge their instinctual belief55．The two experiments mentioned in the text reveal __________．[A]how to follow others’ advice[B]how to understand others’ advice[C]what causes people to seek advice[D]what affects people’s attitude to adviceText 3Top National Health Service(NHS)nurses will be able to earn $40，000 a year without leaving frontline patient care in a modification to salary structures． New“supernurse”grades will be created to enable the best staff to increase their salaries without having to move into management desk jobs Currently the most senior NHS nurses can earn a maximum$28，000 a year unless they are willing to withdraw from the frontline and become administrators．Hundreds of experienced and highly-qualified nurses are lost to patient care every year because of this oddity·While only a few thousand of Britain’s 332，000 NHS nurses will qualify for the$40，000 plus salary. Fast track promotion schemes and a simpler grading system will increase the pay of many more．The governmentannounced that a new simplified career structure would see just four grades replacing the existing six．Nurses will begin their careers as healthcare assistants before moving up to registered practitioner grade，followed by senior registered practitioner and ultimately consultant practitioner and a$40，000salary．“Nurses are rising to the challenge of modernization，”said a government official“These proposals will help them improve their professional role further and provide a better service to Patients·We do not think mat in order to be paid more，nurses should have to move into management·Nurses working at the sharpened of patient care should have a career structure which no longer penalizes them for wanting to stay there．”The Nursing Strategy will include proposals to allow more flexible training courses and Improve opportunities for qualified nurses who have left the profession to return in part-time roles·The Royal College of Nursing welcomed the reforms．The top salary level falls into line with figures it had presented to ministers．56 Hundreds of experienced nurses are lost to patient care every year because they__________·[A]dislike the nursing job[B]are dissatisfied with their pay[C]are replaced by“super nurses”[D]lack further training for the profession57．The new system will mostly benefit those who__________·[A]move into management[B]work on a part time basis[C]have retired from the nursing job[D]have reached the top of the system58．The new career structure is different from the existing one in its__________．[A]quality of nurses’ services[B]possibility of a job transfer[C]opportunities for promotion[D]simplicity of nurses’ grades59．The Nursing Strategy will be adopted in order to__________ ．[A]provide more consultation to practitioners[B]encourage experienced nurses to work part time[C]enable the most experienced nurses to be paid more[D]promote the most experienced nurses to management60．The Royal College of Nursing __________．[A]proposed similar top salary for nurses[B]raised the management issue to ministers[C]suggested a four-grade system for nurses[D]put forward the Nursing Strategy to ministersPart BDirections：Read the texts taken from five people's comments on an article on the issue of global poverty．For questions61 to 65，match the name of each person(61to 65)to one of the statements(A to G)given below Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET 1． Ankita Agarwal：Your article made me ashamed．I've always thought of myself as not the typical self-absorbed teenager，but I guess l was wrong．While I sit in my large，warm and cozy house．Wishing for the shoes and clothes I see in teen magazines，there are people in the world wishing for something as simple as clean water. Thank you for reminding me about people who would be more than happy with what I have．Janet Tejada：What about the relationship between population，consumption and resources? After all, poverty most simply defined，is not having enough resources．The steady growth of the global population, overconsumption of resources by developed nations such as the U．S．，and increasing levelsof C0nsumption among the growing middle class in many developing nations ensure that there is ever less of the planet’salready dwindling resources to go around．Tadaship Kawabe：Extreme poverty is so tragic．Sudden natural disasters like an earthquake mobilize a large number of people and money for a short period of time，while the slow but massive wave of poverty and death in Africa doesn't attract the world’s attention in the same way. When we try to help those affected by disasters and extreme poverty，however，we shouldn’t focus on the overwhelming number of the dead but simply try to do something good for others·Jane Thomas：The poor should be trained to organize，set priorities and develop skills and resources to put their own community plans into action．What your article proposes is the conventional top-down way for doing things：outsiders determine the priorities and solutions，then throw money at them.To actually help，we must first develop our own skills and understanding．We need to find out what the poor want and what the root causes of the problems are．We have to listen to poor people．Sanjay Kathe：Concerned and sensible people’s endeavors to reduce poverty in underdeveloped countries are deserving of high praise．It is sad，however，that only a small part of the funds raised for the poor actually l each them．The generous people who donate money to reduce poverty would be more successful if they spent time in the poor nations to check first—hand the use of their funds.Now match the name of each person (61 to65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements．61.

They were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow(微弱的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday moning, its glow had become so bright that Jane woke her husband to watch .it. Pepys slipped on his dressing-gown and went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, and after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked, though the fire was dying down, as though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them.While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard the fire was a bad one; hundreds of houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the T ower of London and climbed upon a high part of the build- ing so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. The man of the T ower told him that the fire had started in a baker's shop in Pudding Lane(小巷) ; the baker's house had caught fire from the over-beated oven(烤箱)and then the flames had quickly spread to the other houses in the narrowlane. So the Great Fire of London, a fire that lasted nearly five days, destroyed most of the old city and ended, as it is said, at Pie Corner.27. What is the passage about?A. The Great Fire of London.B.
