However, do remember that accidents can happen, such as the one that happened at Taihu Lake several weeks ago. Four students from Shanghai were killed and several were injured. There were several reasons for the accident, but if the students had worn life jackets, it would have made a big difference.Therefore, it is important to take steps to avoid accidents before going on trips whether on land or water. Here are some steps:Make sure you are physically fit for any activities. You need energy for hiking or boating after a long inactive winter.Research your route (路线). Check the weather report so you can pack the correct things so that an unexpected downpour or high winds won’t destroy your day.If you are visiting a different culture, learn some basic knowledge about what’s accepted and what is not.Take plenty of water to prevent your body from losing too much water and be sure to wear the correct footwear to protect your feet. Don’t go to faraway areas and never risk going into unknown waters.Going in a group is safer than going alone. If you have to travel by yourself, leave a note of your travel route, telephone number and how you are traveling. So if there’s an emergency, people can get in touch with you.36. The accident at Taihu Lake is mentioned to______________.A. warn students against traveling aloneB. introduce the topic of the passageC. show the disadvantages of outdoor activitiesD. remind students of the importance of life jackets37. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. People usually take part in fewer activities in winter.B. Cultures play an important role in your traveling.C. People should wear comfortable shoes while traveling.D. People should never go out for activities alone.38. Which of the following can be used as the best title?A. Be Well Prepared for Outdoor Activities.B. Pay Attention to Unexpected Accidents.C. Do Take Outdoor Activities in a Group.D. Be Sure to Avoid Being Injured When Traveling.BWhat a week it’s been for Jeremy Lin!With five breakout games, the Taiwanese-American has become the NBA’s newest playmaking sensation(轰动).In the New York Knicks’ 92-85 win over the Los Angles Lakers last Saturday, Lin had 38 points—a record high in his career (职业) so far. And a day later, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory (胜利), 100-98, to Minnesota Timberwolves.

Later, he started off on the Golden State Warriors. Lin first signed with the Warriors in July, 2010, but hardly played in games before the start of the fourth quarter. His first time on the court for the Warriors scored several points in just eleven minutes.New York Knicks has been in need of a dependable point guard and to Mike D’Antoni, the Knicks coach who is going through a hard season, Lin is a most unexpected valuable player. "Lin just does everything easy and the rest of the players around him are playing the way we want to play," D’Antoni said. "I think it's serious, and it can only get better."39. During the week, Jeremy Lin _______.A. became the focus of the whole worldB. helped his team win five games in a rowC. got a career-high 38 points against New York KnicksD. caught a high fever and couldn’t take part in the games40.

It is open for everybody,” said Michael Aubermann, a 44-year-old who works in IT management.“We put up our other outdoor shelves last year and it’s been working really well,” added Aubermann.The public book shelves, which are run with the money given by and cared for by local volunteer groups, have appeared independently of each other in many cities across Germany including Berlin, Hannover and Bonn, and also in suburbs and villages.Each shelf holds around 200 books and it takes about six weeks for a complete turnover, with new books taking the place of all the old ones, he said.While most of the shelves have so far been put up in rich neighborhoods, Aubermann and the 20 volunteers who help look after the project (事业) are planning to put up future shelves in poor neighborhoods, where people often don’t have such chanc es to read.So far, the Cologne book group has had few problems. For example, a used-book seller once emptied every copy on a shelf to sell at a market. Besides, book stores and online book sellers have their own ideas about free book exchanges.43.

What has caused the few problems to the project up till now.DHow’s your relationship with yo ur dad? It can be easy to let walls build up between you during the teen years.

Talk it out when you can do so calmly.Realize respect. Face it: y our dad’s been given authority (权威) to help guide you as you know. He’s going to make mistakes, but so are you.

painted．Philadelphia now has more murals than any other American city．The walls that were once ugly with graffiti（涂鸦）are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art，thanks to the Mural Arts Program （MAP）．Its work makes schools and public places attractive，and its citizens very proud．The program began as part of Philadelphia's Anti﹣Graffiti Network．Jane Golden is the MAP's artistic director．"When people ask me what our program is about，"she says，"I answer them with one word：hope．"Each year，the MAP offers youth art programs and workshops．Some one﹣time graffiti writers even help paint MAP murals．The MAP's work，says Golden，is all about developing a sense of community（社区）．When a neighborhood requests a mural，the MAP works with the people there to develop a message．Some messages have been"Safe Streets，""Love and Care，"and"Peace Walk．"The MAP receives up to 50 requests for murals each week．Last year，the workers painted 140 murals．"The making of a mural enters people's collective memory as an extraordinary，pleasant moment in neighborhood history"says Golden，who began as a muralist in Los Angeles．（1）What can be the best title for the text？A．Love，from Graffiti Writers to MuralistsB．MAP，a New Company in PhiladelphiaC．Jane，an Excellent Mural ArtistD．Hope，One Wall at a Time（2）What is the Mural Arts Program in Philadelphia aimed at？A．Helping the young find jobs．B．Protecting the neighborhood．C．Fighting against graffiti．D．Attracting more visitors．（3）How does the MAP decide on the message for a mural？A．By having discussions with people in the community．B．By seeking advice from the city government．C．By learning from the young graffiti writers．D．By studying the history of the city．（4）Which of the following words best describes the work of the MAP？A．Difficult．B．Dangerous．C．Experimental．D．Successful．23.For those who study the development of intelligence（智力）in the animal world，self﹣awareness is animportant measurement．An animal that is aware（意识）of itself has a high level of intelligence．Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror，that is，its ownreflected image（反射出的影像）．Many animals fail this exercise bitterly，paying evry little attention to the reflected image．Only humans，and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins，have shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves．Now another animal has joined the club．In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences，researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror self﹣reflection test．"We thought that elephants were the next important animal，"said Dinana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society，an author of the study with Joshua M．Plotnik and Fans B．M．de Waal of Emory University．With their large brains，Reiss said，elephants"seemed like cousins to apes and dolphins．"The researchers tested Happy，Maxine and Patty，three elephants at the Bronx Zoo．They put an 8﹣foot ﹣square mirror on a wall of the animals'play area （out of the sight of zoo visitors）and recorded what happened with cameras，including one built in the mirror．The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it，and to examine parts of their bodies．Of the three，Happy then passed the test，in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face．She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror，and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose．Diana Reiss said，"We knew elephants were intelligent，but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way．"（1）What can mirror tests tell us about animals？A．Whether they have large brains．B．Whether they have self﹣awareness．C．Whether they enjoy outdoor exercises．D．Whether they enjoy playing with mirrors．（2）Why does the author mention apes and dolphins in the text？A．They are most familiar to readers．B．They are big favorites with zoo visitors．C．They are included in the study by Reiss．D．They are already known to be intelligent．（3）What made Happy different from Maxine and Patty？A．She used her nose to search behind the mirror．B．She recognized her own image in the mirror．C．She painted a mark on her own face．D．She found the hidden camera．24.Student Membership﹣﹣Cambridge Arts CinemaCambridge Arts Cinema is one of the art houses in Britain and home of the internationally celebrated Cambridge Film Festival．Since 1947generations of students have discovered the wealth of world cinema．Now you too can make most of it and save money．48．Which of the following is the most famous event held at Cambridge Arts Cinema？A．The Cambridge Film Festival．B．Meetings with filmmakers．C．The preview screening．D．Monthly premieres．49．If you're a member of Cambridge Arts Cinema，you will enjoy freeA．Darkroom Gallery showsB．mailed programmesC．special film eventsD．film shows50．How long will the membership for Cambridge Arts Cinema last？A．Four months．B．Eight months．C．Nine months．D．One year．51．For what purpose is the text written？A．Offering students cheaper tickets．B．Announcing the opening of a premiere．C．Telling the public of the cinema's address．D．Increasing the cinema's membership．25.The way we do things round hereSome years ago，I was hired by an American bank．I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started，"Dear John，I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us．"That"quite"saddened me．I thought he was saying"we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else．"Then I discovered that in American English"quite"sometimes means"very"，while in British English it means"fairly"．So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak．It is body language，dress，manners，ideas and so on．The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures（文化）．Some of these differences may be only on the surface﹣dress，food and hours of work﹣while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with．Mostly，it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them，like the climate（气候），while getting on with business．Some of the differences may be an improvement．People are more polite；the service is better；you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again．However，other differences can be troubling，like punctuality（准时）．If you invite people to a party at 7o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany，five minutes early in theAmerican Midwest，an hour early in Japan，15minutes afterwards in the UK，up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece．I prefer not to use the word"late"because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive．It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country．52．The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought．A．the American bank didn't think much of himB．the American bank might hire another personC．it's difficult to get used to American cultureD．it's easy to misunderstand Americans53．The word"highlights"in Paragraph 2probably means．A．encouragesB．helps to narrowC．increasesD．draws attention to54．According to the author，what should we do with most cultural differences？A．Ask the native people for help．B．Understand and accept them．C．Do things in our own way．D．Do in﹣depth research．55．When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are．A．ItaliansB．GermansC．GreeksD．the British．26."I didn't hear them call my name，"explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens （AT）as she talked about thatexciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004．"Are you ready？"is what she heard．Then she said，"I shook my head no，and then they said‘yes'and it was announced again．"It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen﹣year﹣old high school student from Destrehan，Louisiana﹣﹣﹣﹣she was still on cloud nine．"I was so shocked!I never believed that it could actually really happen．"Present in the audience（观众）that day were：her mother and father，older brother，her friends，and her dance teacher．Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there，AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete（比赛）．"She's always been my role model．I've danced with her since I was six．She's been through so many difficulties and came through them all．I've learned to getover bad life's experiences and learned how to move on because of her．"One of those bad life's experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident．He was 18．She found writing helped her get through the rough days．She said，"I write a lot about my brother．I write a lot，a lot，a lot…"As Miss Louisiana Teen，she traveled around the state speaking to teens（青少年）about the dangers of drinking and driving．In her role as Miss Teen USA，Sheiley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving，in addition to many other things to help the youth．When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers，she said，"Don't let anyone change you．Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself．That way，it is easy to be yourself．"56．What do the words"on cloud nine"in Paragraph

The approach contrasts with one that would require an Internet driver's license __10__ by the government.Google and Microsoft are among companies that already have these "single sign-an" systems that make it possible for users to __11__ just once but use many different services.__12__ , the approach would create a "walled garden" in cyberspace, with safe "neighborhoods" and bright " streetlights" to establish a sense of a __13__ community.Mr. Schmidt described it as a "voluntary ecosystem" in which "individuals and organizations can complete online transactionswith __14__ , trusting the identities of each other and the identities of the infrastructure ___15___ which the transaction runs.

Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(40 points)Text 1Ruth Simmons joined Goldman Sachs' board as an outside director in January 2000; a year later she became president of Brown University. For the rest of the decade she apparently managed both roles without attracting much criticism. But by the end of 2009 Mrs. Simmons was under fire for having sat on Goldman's compensation committee; how could she have let those enormous bonus payouts pass unremarked? By February the next year Mrs. Simmons had left the board. The position was just taking up too much time, she said.Outside directors are supposed to serve as helpful, yet less biased, advisers on a firm's board. Having made their wealth and their reputations elsewhere, they presumably have enough independence to disagree with the chief executive's proposals. If the sky, and the share price, is falling, outside directors should be able to give advice based on having weathered theirown crises.The researchers from Ohio University used a database that covered more than 10,000 firms and more than 64,000 different directors between 1989 and 2004. Then they simply checked which directors stayed from one proxy statement to the next. The most likely reason for departing a board was age, so the researchers concentrated on those "surprise" disappearances by directors under the age of 70. They found that after a surprise departure, the probability that the company will subsequently have to restate earnings increases by nearly 20%. The likelihood of being named in a federal class-action lawsuit also increases, and the stock is likely to perform worse. The effect tended to be larger for larger firms. Although a correlation between them leaving and subsequent bad performance at the firm is suggestive, it does not mean that such directors are always jumping off a sinking ship. Often they "trade up," leaving riskier, smaller firmsfor larger and more stable firms.But the researches believe that outside directors have an easier time of avoiding a blow to their reputations if they leave a firm before bad news break, even if a review of history shows that they were on the board at the time any wrongdoing occurred. Firms who want to keep their outside directors through tough times may have to create incentives. Otherwise outside directors will follow the example of Ms. Simmons, once again very popular on campus.21. According to Paragraph 1, Ms. Simmons was criticized for __________________.[A] gaining excessive profits[B] failing to fulfill her duty[C] refusing to make compromises[D] leaving the board in tough times22. We learn from Paragraph 2 that outside directors are supposed to be __________________.[A] generous investors[B] unbiased executives[C] share price forecasters[D] independent advisers23. According to the researchers from Ohio University, after an outside director' s surprise departure, the firm is likely to __________________.[A] become more stable[B] report increased earnings[C] do less well in the stock market[D] perform worse in lawsuits24. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that outside directors __________________.[A] may stay for the attractive offers from the firm[B] have often had records of wrongdoings in the firm[C] are accustomed to stress -free work in the firm[D] will decline incentives from the firm25. The author' s attitude toward the role ofoutside directors is __________________.[A] permissive[B] positive[C] scornful[D] criticalText 2Whatever happened to the death of newspapers? A year ago the end seemed near. The recession threatened to remove the advertising and readers that had not already fled to the internet. Newspapers like the San Francisco Chronicle were chronicling their own doom. America's Federal Trade Commission launched a round of talks about how to save newspapers. Should they become charitable corporations? Should the state subsidize them? It will hold another meeting soon. But the discussions now seem out of date.In much of the world there is little sign of crisis. German and Brazilian papers have shrugged off the recession. Even Americannewspapers, which inhabit the most troubled comer of the global industry, have not only survived but often returned to profit. Not the 20% profit margins that were routine a few years ago, but profit all the same.It has not been much fun. Many papers stayed afloat by pushing journalists overboard. The American Society of News Editors reckons that 13,500 newsroom jobs have gone since 2007. Readers are paying more for slimmer products. Some papers even had the nerve to refuse delivery to distant suburbs. Yet these desperate measures have proved the right ones and, sadly for many journalists, they can be pushed further.Newspapers are becoming more balanced businesses, with a healthier mix of revenues from readers and advertisers. American papers have long been highly unusual in their reliance on ads. Fully 87% of their revenues came from advertising in 2008, according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation &Development (OECD). In Japan the proportion is 35%. Not surprisingly, Japanese newspapers are much more stable.The whirlwind that swept through newsrooms harmed everybody, but much of the damage has been concentrated in areas where newspapers are least distinctive. Car and film reviewers have gone. So have science and general business reporters. Foreign bureaus have been savagely cut off. Newspapers are less complete as a result. But completeness is no longer a virtue in the newspaper business.26. By saying "Newspapers like…their own doom"(Line 3, Para. 1), the author indicates that newspapers ________________.[A] neglected the sign of crisis[B] failed to get state subsidies[C] were not charitable corporations[D] were in a desperate situation27. Some newspapers refused delivery to distant suburbs probably because ________________.[A] readers threatened to pay less[B] newspapers wanted to reduce costs[C] journalists reported little about these areas[D] subscribers complained about slimmer products28. Compared with their American counterparts, Japanese newspapers are much more stable because they ________________.[A] have more sources of revenue[B] have more balanced newsrooms[C] are less dependent on advertising[D] are less affected by readership29. What can be inferred from the last paragraph about the current newspaper business?[A] Distinctiveness is an essential feature of newspapers.[B] Completeness is to blame for the failure of newspaper.[C] Foreign bureaus play a crucial role inthe newspaper business.[D] Readers have lost their interest in car and film reviews.30. The most appropriate title for this text would be ________________.[A] American Newspapers: Struggling for Survival[B] American Newspapers: Gone with the wind[C] American Newspapers: A Thriving Business[D] American Newspapers: A Hopeless StoryText 3We tend to think of the decades immediately following World War 11 as a time of prosperity and growth, with soldiers returning home by the millions, going off to college on the G. I. Bill and lining up at the marriage bureaus.But when it came to their houses, it was atime of common sense and a belief that less could truly be more. During the Depression and the war, Americans had learned to live with less, and that restraint, in combination with the postwar confidence in the future, made small, efficient housing positively stylish.Economic condition was only a stimulus for the trend toward efficient living. The phrase "less is more" was actually first popularized by a German, the architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, who like other people associated with the Bauhaus, a school of design, emigrated to the United States before World War Ⅱand took up posts at American architecture schools. These designers came to exert enormous influence on the course of American architecture, but none more so than Mies.Mie's signature phrase means that less decoration, properly organized, has more impact than a lot. Elegance, he believed, did not derive from abundance. Like other modern architects, he employed metal, glass andlaminated wood -- materials that we take for granted today but that in the1940s symbolized the future. Mies's sophisticated presentation masked the fact that the spaces he designed were small and efficient, rather than big and often empty.The apartments in the elegant towers Mies built on Chicago's Lake Shore Drive, for example, were smaller -- two-bedroom units under 1,000 square feet -- than those in their older neighbors along the city's Gold Coast. But they were popular because of their airy glass walls, the views they afforded and the elegance of the buildings' details and proportions, the architectural equivalent of the abstract art so popular at the time.The trend toward "less" was not entirely foreign. In the 1930s Frank Lloyd Wright started building more modest and efficient houses -- usually around 1,200 square feet -- than the spreading two-story ones he had designed in the 1890s and the early 20th century.The "Case Study Houses" commissioned from talented modern architects by California Arts & Architecture magazine between 1945 and 1962 were yet another homegrown influence on the "less is more" trend. Aesthetic effect came from the landscape, new materials and forthright detailing. In his Case Study House, Ralph Rapson may have mispredicted just how the mechanical revolution would impact everyday life -- few American families acquired helicopters, though most eventually got clothes dryers -- but his belief that self-sufficiency was both desirable and inevitable was widely shared.31. The postwar American housing style largely reflected the Americans' ________________.[A] prosperity and growth[B] efficiency and practicality[C] restraint and confidence[D] pride and faithfulness32. Which of the following can be inferred from Paragraph 3 about the Bauhaus?[A] It was founded by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.[B] Its designing concept was affected by World War I1.[C] Most American architects used to be associated with it.[D] It had a great influence upon American architecture.33. Mies held that elegance of architectural design ________________.[A] was related to large space[B] was identified with emptiness[C] was not reliant on abundant decoration[D] was not associated with efficiency34. What is true about the apartments Mies built on Chicago's Lake Shore Drive?[A] They ignored details and proportions.[B] They were built with materials popular at that time.[C] They were more spacious than neighboring buildings.[D] They shared some characteristics ofabstract art.35. What can we learn about the design of the "Case Study Houses" ?[A] Mechanical devices were widely used.[B] Natural scenes were taken into account.[C] Details were sacrificed for the overall effect.[D] Eco-friendly materials were employed.Text 4Will the European Union make it? The question would have sounded strange not long ago. Now even the project's greatest cheerleaders talk of a continent facing a "Bermuda triangle" of debt, population decline and lower growth.As well as those chronic problems, the EU faces an acute crisis in its economic core, the 16 countries that use the single currency. Markets have lost faith that the euro zone's economies, weaker or stronger, will one day converge thanks to the discipline of sharing a singlecurrency, which denies uncompetitive members the quick fix of devaluation.Yet the debate about how to save Europe's single currency from disintegration is stuck. It is stuck because the euro zone's dominant powers, France and Germany, agree on the need for greater harmonization within the euro zone, but disagree about what to harmonise.Germany thinks the euro must be saved by stricter rules on borrowing, spending and competitiveness, backed by quasi-automatic sanctions for governments that do not obey. These might include threats to freeze EU funds for poorer regions and EU mega-projects, and even the suspension of a country's voting fights in EU ministerial councils. It insists that economic co-ordination should involve all 27 members of the EU club, among whom there is a small majority for free - market liberalism and economic rigour; in the inner core alone, Germany fears, a small majority favour French interference.A "southern" camp headed by France wants something different: "European economic government" within an inner core of euro-zone members. Translated, that means politicians intervening in monetary policy and a system of redistribution from richer to poorer members, via cheaper borrowing for governments through common Eurobonds or complete fiscal transfers. Finally, figures close to the French government have murmured, euro-zone members should agree to some fiscal and social harmonization: e.g. , curbing competition in corporate-tax rates or labour costs.It is too soon to write off the EU. It remains the world's largest trading block. At its best, the European project is remarkably liberal: built around a single market of 27 rich and poor countries, its internal borders are far more open to goods, capital and labour than any comparable trading area. It is an ambitious attempt to blunt the sharpest edges of globalization, and make capitalism benign.36. The EU is faced with so many problems that ________________.[A] it has more or less lost faith in markets[B] even its supporters begin to feel concerned[C] some of its member countries plan to abandon euro[D] it intends to deny the possibility of devaluation37. The debate over the EU's single currency is stuck because the dominant powers ________________.[A] are competing for the leading position[B] are busy handling their own crises[C] fail to reach an agreement on harmonization[D] disagree on the steps towards disintegration38. To solve the euro problem, Germany proposed that ________________.[A] EU funds for poor regions be increased[B] stricter regulations be imposed[C] only core members be involved in economic co-ordination[D] voting fights of the EU members be guaranteed39. The French proposal of handling the crisis implies that ________________.[A] poor countries are more likely to get funds[B] strict monetary policy will be applied to poor countries[C] loans will be readily available to rich countries[D] rich countries will basically control Eurobonds40. Regarding the future of the EU, the author seems to feel[A] pessimistic [B] desperate [C] conceited [D] hopefulPart BDirections:Read the following text and answer thequestions by finding information from the right column that corresponds to each of the marked details given in the left column.

(10 points) Leading doctors today weigh in on the debate over the government's role in promoting public health by demanding that ministers impose "fat taxes" on unhealthy food and introduce cigarettestyle warnings to children about the dangers of a poor diet.The demands follow comments made last week by the health secretary, Andrew Lansley, who insisted the government could not force people to make healthy choices and promised to free businesses from public health regulations.But senior medical figures want to stop fast-food outlets opening near schools, restrict advertising of products high in fat, salt or sugar, and limit sponsorship of sports events by fast-food producers such as McDonald' s.They argue that government action isnecessary to curb Britain's addiction to unhealthy food and help halt spiraling rates of obesity, diabetes and heart disease. Professor Terence Stephenson, president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, said that the consumption of unhealthy food should be seen to be just as damaging as smoking or excessive drinking."Thirty years ago, it would have been inconceivable to have imagined a ban on smoking in the workplace or pubs, and yet that is what we have now. Are we willing to be just as courageous in respect of obesity? I would suggest that we should be," said the leader of the UK' s children' s doctors.Lansley has alarmed health campaigners by suggesting he wants industry rather than government to take the lead. He said that manufacturers of crisps and candies could play a central role in the Chang4Life campaign, the centrepiece of government efforts to boost healthy eating and fitness. He has also criticisedthe celebrity chef Jamie Oliver' s high-profile attempt to improve school lunches in England as an example of how "lecturing" people was not the best way to change their behaviour.Stephenson suggested potential restrictions could include banning TV advertisements for foods high in fat, salt or sugar before 9 pm and limiting them on billboards or in cinemas. "If we were really bold, we might even begin to think of high-calorie fast food in the same way as cigarettes-by setting strict limits on advertising, product placement and sponsorship of sports events," he said.Such a move could affect firms such as McDonald's, which sponsors the youth coaching scheme run by the Football Association. Fast-food chains should also stop offering "inducements" such as toys, cute animals and mobile phone credit to lure young customers, Stephenson said.Professor Dinesh Bhugra, president of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, said : "Ifchildren are taught about the impact that food has on their growth, and that some things can harm, at least information is available up front. "He also urged councils to impose "fast-food-free zones" around schools and hospitals-areas within which takeaways cannot open.A Department of Health spokesperson said:" We need to create a new vision for public health where all of society works together to get healthy and live longer. This includes creating a new 'responsibility deal' with business, built on social responsibility, not state regulation. Later this year, we will publish a white paper setting out exactly how we will achieve this. "The food industry will be alarmed that such senior doctors back such radical moves, especially the call to use some of the tough tactics that have been deployed against smoking over the last decade.[A] "fat taxes" should be imposed on fast-food producers such asMcDonald's.41．Andrew Lansley held that [B] the government should ban fast-food outlets in the neighborhood of schools.42．Terence Stephenson agreed that [C] "lecturing" was an effective way to improve school lunches in England.43．Jamie Oliver seemed to believe that [D] cigarette-style warning should be introduced to children about the dangers of a poor diet.44．Dinesh Bhugra suggested that [E] the producers of crisps and candies could contribute significantly to the Change4Life camign.45．A Department of Health spokesperson proposed that [F] parents should set good examples for their children by keeping a healthy diet at home.[G] the government should strengthen the sense of responsibility among businesses.Section ⅢTranslation46.

A Google search can leak between 0.2 and 7.0 grams of CO2, depending on how many attempts are needed to get the "right" answer. To deliver results to its users quickly, then, Google has to maintain vast datacentres around the world, packed with powerful computers. While producing large quantities of CO2, these computers emit a great deal of heat, so the centres need to be well air-conditioned, which uses even more energy.However, Google and other big tech providers monitor their efficiency closely and make improvements. Monitoring is the first step on the road to reduction, but there is much more to be done, and not just by big companies.Section ⅣWritingPart A47.

Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country 32 the other countries every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers.Newspapers have been an important part of 33 life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of 34 newspapers. How do newspaper editors 35 which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not 36 ? What makes a good newspaper story?Firstly, it is important to report new stories. TV stations can report news much 37 than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also 38 the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories from those on TV.Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. 39 ,many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad”news. For example, newspapers 40 print stories about planes landing safely, 41 they print stories about plane accident.Another factor（因素）is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in 42 countries, but more 43 to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. 44 the stories on the front page inChinese newspapers are usually very 45 the ones in British, French and American newspapers.( )31.

There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?Since then, whenever I wanted to judge someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?”Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.61、The writer couldn’t see everything clearly through the window because .A. the woman’s window was dirtyB. the writer’s window was dirtyC. the woman lived nearbyD. the writer was near－sighted62、“It dawned on me”probably means“”.A. I began to understand itB. it cheered me upC. I knew it grew lightD. it began to get dark63、It’s clear that .A. the writer had never met the woman beforeB. the writer often washed the windowC. they both worked as cleanersD. they lived in a small town64、From the passage, we can learn .A. one shouldn’t criticize others very oftenB. one should often make his windows cleanC. one must judge himself before he judges othersD. one must look at others through his dirty windowsBHow many of us would temp(做临时工)for three years while we waited for the perfect job? Not many of us, perhaps. But Wentworth Miller, the Prison Break star, said he chose to wait even longer time until he found the right job.“Actually I think it might have been three or four years until I was lucky enough to get guest roles on TV shows,” said Miller, 34, who rose to international fame thanks to Prison Break in 2006. That kind of patience and strong will was showed in Prison Break. Miller plays engineering wizard Michael Scofield, who tries everything to break out of a Chicago prison with his brother.Miller said he didn’t seem fated(注定的)for a career in the arts, despite his passion for acting. After graduating from Princeton with an English degree, he moved at his parents’request to Los Angeles to look for a stable life. He started work in a little company that made television movies. This meant simply faxing, walking the boss’dog and going to the store for the boss’ lunch.However, Miller realized he still had questions about his choice. He decided to give up the job. But the boss said he was making a mistake and offered him a well－paid assistant position.“I finally realized that if I did that well－paid job, it would be great if I was successful, but I would always wonder a bout the acting. If I did the acting and was successful I would never wonder about that job,”he explained. He gave up and temped for many people in the entertainment industry. But now, he’s a hot star.65、Miller rose to his fame through .A. A Night in the MuseumB. PrisonBreakC. Crouching Tiger, Hidden DragonD. The Happy Big Feet66、In the little company that made television movies,Miller did the following EXCEPT .A. faxing and filingB.walking the boss’ dogC. going to the store for the boss’lunchD.playing an engineering wizard67、From what Miller said in the last paragraph, wecan see .A. acting is more important than moneyB.

Where there is will, there is a wayC. “Prison” job is just perfectD. Passion for actingCPaul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a boy walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. “Is this your car, sir?” he asked.Paul nodded. “My brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was astounded.” You mean your brother gave it to you and it cost you nothing? Boy, Iwish…”He hesitated.Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that.“I wish,”the boy went on,“that I could be a brother like that.”Paul looked at the boy in astonishment and said, “Would you like to take a ride in my automobile?”“Oh yes, I’d love that.”After a short ride, the boy said, “Sir, would you mind driving in front of my house?” Paul smiled. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again. When Paul stopped in front of the boy’s house, the boy rushed out of the car. Then in a little while the boy came back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled(残废的)brother. “There she is , Buddy, just like I told you just now. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. Some day I’m going to give you one just like it and then you can see for yourself all the pretty things in the Christmas windows that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”69. Paul thought the boy wished to .A. get a car from Paul’s brotherB. get a car from the boy’s own brotherC. give a car to PaulD. give a car to the boy’s own brother70.

Paul’s sisterDAmerican Rivers reports that there are more than 250,000 rivers in the United States. Combined, they flow for more than five and one-half million kilometers.The largest and most famous river in the United States is the Mississippi. It starts near the northern border of the United States and flows through the center of the country for more than 3,700 kilometers. About 250 smaller rivers flow into the Mississippi. The mouth of the Mississippi empties into the Gulf of Mexico. At that point, more than sixteen million liters of water flows every second.However, the Missouri River is the longest river in the United States. It flows for about 4,000 kilometers. It begins in the Rocky Mountains of North America. It flows along theborders of seven states before it empties into the Mississippi River near the city of Saint Louis, Missouri.Three rivers that join together in the north central state of Montana form the Missouri River. The water is clear there. But, as it moves east and south. the Missouri River turns brown as it collects huge amounts of dirt from the land. That is why many people call the Missouri River “The Big Muddy”.Some people say the Columbia River in the northwest is the most beautiful river in America. It flows the Canadian province of British Columbia into the United States through the state of Washington. The Columbia River is the largest river that empties into the Pacific Ocean.Another famous river is the Rio Grande. It is the longest river in the state of Texas. It forms the border between Texas and Mexico.Finally, the oldest river in the United States is the New River. It begins in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina and flows north through parts of Virginia and West Virginia. The New River also may be the second oldest in the world. It is funny how something so old can be called new. 73．What is the subject discussed in the text?A. American riversB. American water resourcesC. American fresh waterD.

However, remember that accidents can happen, such as the one that happened at Taihu Lake several weeks ago. Four students from Shanghai were killed and several were injured. There were several reasons for the accident, but if the students had worn life jackets, it would have made a big difference. Therefore, it is important to take steps to avoid accidents before going on trips whether on land or water. Here are some steps: Make sure you are physically fit for any activities. You need energy for hiking or boating after a long inactive winter. Research your route (路线). Check the weather report so you can pack the correct things so that an unexpected downpour or high winds won’t destroy your day. If you are visiting a different culture, learn some basic knowledge about what’s accepted and what is not. Take plenty of water to prevent your body from losing too much water and be sure to wear the correct footwear to protect your feet. Don’t go to faraway areas and never risk going into unknown waters. Going in a group is safer than going alone. If you have to travel by yourself, leave a note of your travel route, telephone number and how you are traveling. So if there’s an emergency, people can get in touch with you. 36. The accident at Taihu Lake is mentioned to______________. A. warn students against traveling alone B. introduce the topic of the passage C. show the disadvantages of outdoor activities D. remind students of the importance of life jackets 37. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. People usually take part in fewer activities in winter. B. Cultures play an important role in your traveling. C. People should wear comfortable shoes while traveling. D. People should never go out for activities alone. 38. Which of the following can be used as the best title? A. Be Well Prepared for Outdoor Activities. B. Pay Attention to Unexpected Accidents. C. Do Take Outdoor Activities in a Group. D. Be Sure to Avoid Being Injured When Traveling.B What a week it’s been for Jeremy Lin! With five breakout games, the Taiwanese-American has become the NBA’s newest playmakingsensation(轰动). In the New York Knicks’ 92-85 win over the Los Angles Lakers last Saturday, Lin had 38 points—a record high in his career (职业) so far. And a day later, he led the Knicks to their fifth straight victory (胜利), 100-98, to Minnesota Timberwolves. In his earlier games, Lin, 23, had 23 points against the Washington, 25 points against New Jersey and 28 more against Utah in his first start. No doubt, Lin fever is starting to spread. If you haven't caught it yet, get ready, because it's coming, as the Knicks depends on the rising star for their final victory. Before graduating from high school in Palo Alto, California, Lin sent his basic personal information to all the Ivy League Schools. He only got into Harvard and Brown, and he chose Harvard. In 2010, Lin graduated with a degree in economics（经济学. After graduating from Harvard, Lin wasn’t accepted by any NBA team. Later, he started off on the Golden State Warriors. Lin first signed with the Warriors in July, 2010, but hardly played in games before the start of the fourth quarter. His first time on the court for the Warriors scored several points in just eleven minutes. New York Knicks has been in need of a dependable point guard and to Mike D’Antoni, the Knicks coach who is going through a hard season, Lin is a most unexpected valuable player. "Lin just does everything easy and the rest of the players around him are playing the way we want to play," D’Antoni said. "I think it's serious, and it can only get better." 39. During the week, Jeremy Lin _______. A. became the focus of the whole world B. helped his team win five games in a row C. got a career-high 38 points against New York Knicks D. caught a high fever and couldn’t take part in the games 40. All the information about Lin is right except that_______. A. he was 23 years old when he helped his team win five breakout games B. only Harvard and Brown would like to accept him after he finished high school C. as soon as he left college, he became one member of the New York Knicks D. when he first joined the Warriors, he seldom had chances to play in the game 41. In which game did Lin got the highest scores according to the passage?A. The fifth game.B. The fourth game.C. The second game.D. The first game. 42. What lesson can we get from Jeremy Lin?A. Never too late to learn.B. Practice makes perfect.C. Failure is the mother of success.D. All that glitters（发光is gold. C Take a book, leave a book. Public bookshelves are appearing across Germany on street corners, city squares and supermarkets. In these free-for-all libraries, people can take whatever they want to read, and leave behind anything they want for others. There is no need to register(登记), no exact date to return books and you can take or give as many as you want. “It is aimed at everyone who likes to read—whatever age or education. It is open for everybody,”said Michael Aubermann, a 44-year-old who works in IT management. “We put up our other outdoor shelves last year and it’s been working really well,” added Aubermann. The public book shelves, which are run with the money given by and cared for by local volunteer groups, have appeared independently of each other in many cities across Germany including Berlin, Hannover and Bonn, and also in suburbs and villages. Each shelf holds around 200 books and it takes about six weeks for a complete turnover, with new books taking the place of all the old ones, he said. While most of the shelves have so far been put up in rich neighborhoods, Aubermann and the 20 volunteers who help look after the project (事业) are planning to put up future shelves in poor neighborhoods, where people often don’t have such chances to read. So far, the Cologne book group has had few problems. For example, a used-book seller once emptied every copy on a shelf to sell at a market. Besides, book stores and online book sellers have their own ideas about free book exchanges. 43. What’s the text mainly about? A. Germans like reading outside. B. Everyone has a chance to read in Germany. C. Public bookshelves spread across Germany. D. Germany is the first country to have public bookshelves. 44. Which of the following is true according to the text? A. Public bookshelves are only put in big cities. B. One has to pay if he wants to take a book. C. One doesn’t have to return a book at a fixed time. D. The Cologne book group has had no problem until now. 45. Who are allowed to read the books?A. All the people.B. Only educated people.C. Those who live in rich neighborhoods.D. Those who have reached a certain age. 46. What would the author probably talk about after the last paragraph? A. Why some people volunteer to give money to the project. B. What book stores and online book sellers think of the project. C. Why a used-book seller tried to sell the books of a shelf at a market. D. What has caused the few problems to the project up till now. D How’s your relationship with your dad? It can be easy to let walls build up between you during the teen years. But by taking several simple steps, you can help improve the relationship between the two of you—even without great efforts. Here are a few quick tips. Talk it out. Communication is key to any friendship. Open your mouth and let your dad know what’s on your mind. Give him a chance to get to know you. Listen up. Your dad’s lived more life than you have. Believe it or not, he’s probably been there and can help you get through the pressures and struggles. Ask how he dealt with school, girls or temptations (诱惑). Then pay attention. Take some time. It can be hard for us kids to talk about what really matters. But spending time together can build the relationship, and create chances to talk. Go for a hike or a game. Work on the car. Whatever you’re into, ask your dad to do it together. Fight fair. Family disagreements are unavoidable. When temperatures rise, keep your mouth respectful and cool off before you say something bad. Talk it out when you can do so calmly. Realize respect. Face it: your dad’s been given authority (权威) to help guide you as you know. He’s going to make mistakes, but so are you. Forgivehim when he blows it, and honor his decisions—even if you don’t agree. 47. The main purpose of the passage is to advise teenagers on how to ________.A. respect and obey their fathersB. communicate with their fathersC. ask their fathers for adviceD. get along well with their fathers 48. According to the writer, ________________.

A. when it is too hot B. when teenagers have a fever C. when fathers fall ill D. when disagreements get worse 50. From the passage we can infer that_____________. A. fathers play an important role in teenagers’ growth B. communication can prevent all the disagreements C. talking everything out at once always helps D. teenagers should never get angry with their fathers 2012年蚌埠二中高一自主招生考试人文素养英语答题卷题号第I卷第Ⅱ卷总分第一节第二节第三节第一节第二节第三节第四节得分评卷人第I卷（共65分）第一节：单项选择（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 123456789101112131415第二节：完形填空（共20小题，每小题1分，满分20分） 1617181920212223242526272829303132333435第三节：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分） 363738394041424344454647484950第Ⅱ卷（共45分）第一节词汇填空 (共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分) 2.

Section I ReadingPart ARead the following text．Choose the best word or phrase for each numbered blank．(30 points) Learning theorists emphasize the role of environmental influences in shaping the way a person develops．__1__ their view, child development is guided by both deliberate and __2__ learning experiences in the home, peer group, school, and community．Therefore, childhood growth is significantly __3__ by the efforts of parents, teachers, and others to __4__ children in desirable ways．According to learning theories, the same __5__ that explain how people can use a bicycle or computer also explain how children acquire social skills, emotional self-control, reasoning strategies, and the __6__ skills of walking and running．One kind of learning occurs when a child‟s actions are __7__ by a reward or punishment．A reward increases the probability that behavior will be repeated．For example, a young child may __8__ draw pictures because she receives praise from her parents after __9__ each one．A punishment decreases the probability that behavior will be repeated．For example, a child who touches a hot stove and burns his fingertips is not __10__ to touch the stove again．__11__ kind of learning, classical conditioning, occurs when a person makes a __12__ association between two events．For example, babies begin sucking when they are put in a familiar nursing __13__, children fear dogs whose barking has startled them in the past．A third kind of learning __14__ of imitating the behavior of others．A boy may acquire his father‟s __15__ of talking, his mother‟s tendency to roll her eyes, and his favorite basketball player‟s moves __16__ the court．In doing so, he also acquires __17__ about the consequences of these behaviors．Learning theories provide extremely useful ways of understanding how developmental changes in behavior and thinking __18__ and, for some children, why behavior problems arise．These theories can be studied scientifically and practically applied．Critics point out, __19__, that learning theorists sometimes neglect children‟s __20__ role in their own understanding and development．1．A．For B．From C．In D．With 2．A．unintended B．uninvolved C．undiscovered D．unlimited 3．A．achieved B．created C．developed D．shaped 4．A．moralize B．recognize C．socialize D．standardize 5．A．considerations B．instructions C．principles D．tendencies

suitable one from the list A-F to fit into each of the numbered gaps．There is ONE which does not fit in any of the gaps．(15 points)Horror stories about the food industry have long been with us – ever since 1906, when Upton Sinclair‟s landmark novel The Jungle told some ugly truths about how America produces its meat．In the century that followed, things got much better, and in some ways much worse．The U.S．agricultural industry can now produce unlimited quantities of meat and grains at remarkably cheap prices．But it does so at a high cost to the environment, animals and humans．21．Add to the price tag the acceleration of global warming – our energy-intensive food system uses 19% of U.S．fossil fuels, more than any other sector of the economy．And perhaps worst of all, our food is increasingly bad for us, even dangerous．22． A food system that generates cheap, filling food at the expense of healthier produce is also a major cause of America‟s widespread obesity．At a time when the nation is close to a civil war over health-care reform, obesity adds $147 billion a year to our doctor bills．“The way we farm now is destructive of the soil, the environment and us,” says Doug Gurian-Sherman, a senior scientist with the food and environment program at the Union of Concerned Scientists．23．Film documentaries like the highly critical Food Inc．and the work of investigative journalists like Eric Schlosser and Michael Pollan are repeating Sinclair‟s work, awakening a sleeping public to the uncomfortable realities of how we eat．Change is also coming from the very top．First Lady Michelle Obama‟s White House garden has so far yielded more than 225 lb．of organic produce – and tons of powerful symbolism．24．Sustainable food is also more expensive than conventional food and harder to find．And while large companies like General Mills have opened organic divisions, there is worry that the very definition of sustainability will be used by those companies only for their own good．But we can‟t afford to remain in philosophizing about food．With the exhaustion of the soil, the impact of global warming and the inevitably rising price of oil – which will affect everything from fertilizer to supermarket electricity bills – our industrial style of food production will end sooner or later．25．Unless Americans radically rethink the way they grow and consume food, they face a future of damaged farmland, emptied-out countryside, terrifying germs, higher health costs –and tasteless diet．Sustainable food has an élitist reputation, but each of us depends on the soil, animals and plants –and as every farmer knows, if you don‟t take care of your land, it can‟t take careA．Some Americans are paying attention to such warnings and working to transform the way the country eats –farmers who are raising sustainable food in ways that don‟t bankrupt the earth．B．A series of recalls involving polluted foods this year –including a case of salmonella poisoning from tainted peanuts that killed at least eight people and sickened 600 – has consumers rightly worried about the safety of their meals．C．But, despite increasing public awareness, sustainable agriculture remains a tiny enterprise: according to the most recent data from the U.S．Department of Agriculture, less than 1% of American cropland is farmed organically．D．And when the rains come, the excess fertilizer that helped to take so much corn out of the ground will be washed into the Mississippi River and down into the Gulf of Mexico, where it will help kill fish for miles and miles around．E．Those hidden prices are the gradual damage of our rich farmland, cages for egg-laying chickens so packed that the birds can‟t even raise their wings and the horrible rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria among farm animals．F．As the developing world grows richer, hundreds of millions of people will want to shift to the same calorie-heavy, protein-rich diet that has made Americans so unhealthy – demand for meat and poultry worldwide is set to rise 25% by 2015 –but the earth can no longer deliver．26．Read the following text and summarize it in Chinese．You should write approximately 200 characters．(20 points)Word travels quickly in the small fishing village of Port Washington, Wisconsin．So when Mardy McGarry wanted to build a playground for kids with special needs, she knew it wouldn‟t take long to create interest in the project．But she never expected that 2,800 people – a third of the town – would roll up their sleeves and use their vacation days to bring her vision to life．“A lot of learning comes through play,” says McGarry, 52, a special education teacher for 28 years．But her students were too often left out．She‟d seen the wood chips and sand of traditional playgrounds stop wheelchairs dead in their tracks．McGarry started researching play equipment and contacting design firms．When a piece of land became available, the city council agreed to give a portion for a playground if she would build it．McGarry asked classrooms of kids for their wish list．“They all said pirate ships,” she says．She also asked physical, occupational, and speech specialists for their input．And she brought on board her friend Sue Mayer, whose eight-year-old son, Sam, is disabled．“Neither of us is good at math, which is why $450,000 didn‟t sound like a lot of money,” McGarry says of the initial estimate．Her Kiwanis Club came through with $7,000, and that‟s when the grass-roots movement really got started．One woman gave $25,000 and had her company match it．Soon smaller businesses were joining in．Families bought wood blocks for the fence at $30 apiece．Bricks for the walkways went for $50 to $750 each．There were silent money-raising activities, T-shirt sales, a coin drive, and a run-walk-and-roll-a-thon．The local Pieper Family Foundation offered to donate half of the remaining $170,000 balance if McGarry could raise the rest．The $450,000 covered materials, but the actual construction would cost an additional $900,000．Out of the question．But the community could build it．The design firm they‟d selected, Leathers & Associates, had sent a 164-page how-to binder．All McGarry needed now was 500 volunteers to work six 12-hour days．On September 16, 2008, the first day of construction, they came．Two women heard about the project from a friend on the way to work and took the day off to help．A couple in their 80s manned the tool trailer．Ten-year-olds sanded surfaces and cleared up wood pieces．“It was truly an amazing week,” says McGarry．“The site looked like an anthill．So many people can take ownership of this playground.”Only three “build captains,” sent by Leathers & Associates, were paid．Volunteers with “build experience” became coordinators, those who could operate power tools formed a separate group, and so on –down to th e “runners.” One team served meals donated from local restaurants and churches, and another organized activities for the children of volunteers．Today, Possibility Playground is one of the most popular destinations in Ozaukee County．The finished wonderland, the length of a football field, sits on a slope overlooking Lake Michigan．There‟s a giant rocking pirate ship, a lighthouse, a rock-climbing wall, high and low rings, monkey bars, palm drums, sandboxes, swings, slides, bridges, and slip roads．All children play shoulder to shoulder．“It‟s neat to see Tori fitting in,” says Charlene Landing of her five-year-old wheelchair-bound daughter．“Some playgrounds have special equipment in a different section．Here, you see all the kids on the same playground having f un.”It‟s exactly what McGarry wished for．“People used to ask, …Why do you want to build a playground just for children with disabilities?‟” she says．“They didn‟t get it．It‟s only when you build a playground for children with disabilities that you build o ne for all children.”Section II WritingPart A27．Translate the following text into

AWaste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources（资源）, we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life, we can do many things to stop waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps（水龙头）when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.36．From the passage we know that some students often _______ in the school.A. waste thingsB. don’t work hardC. eat too muchD. throw rubbish everywhere 37．Which is NOT mentioned in this passage?A.

Whatever we do can’t stop waste. 40．The author writes the passage mainly to tell readers that _________.A. students live a happy school lifeB. waste should be stopped in the schoolC. students should study harder in the schoolD. China is rich in some resourcesBThe wedding（婚礼）between Prince William and Kate Middleton on April 29 is on everyone’s lips now. A common girl is marrying a prince and living in a palace as a princess（公主）.Queen Elizabeth II as well as her family has made full preparations for the wedding. The wedding menus are secret, but it has been told that the wedding party will include two cakes: a traditional fruit cake as the wedding cake and a chocolate cake preferred by Prince William.Kate and William have chosen two choirs（唱诗班）, an orchestra, and other musical groups for the wedding at Westminster Abbey. UK Prime Minister David Cameron and his wife have been invited to the wedding, but US President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle have not. Among the 1,900 guests are football star David Beckham and his wife who could probably make William and Kate seem less important. Kate is keeping silent about her wedding dress. But William is very likely to wear a military uniform（军装）for the wedding.The wedding day has been made an official public holiday in Britain and the whole world will watch it on the big day.41．The underlined words “on everyone’s lips” probably means __________.A. welcomed by everyoneB. talked about by everyoneC. noticed by everyoneD. wished by everyone42．From the passage, we can know that William ________.A. has no job at presentB. enjoys a chocolate cakeC. is now the king of BritainD. won’t see David Cameron at the wedding43．It can be shown from the passage that_________.A. the public needn’t work on the wedding dayB.

Here are six ways for you to find more pleasure in your life.Play that song you love so much. As we all know, repetition can lead to pleasure. When you experience something more than once, you notice more information about it each time, and it increases your enjoyment. That’s why you love revisiting that jazz club, the favorite restaurant, and the old Woody Allen movie. Of course, you can’t overdo it.Don’t buy boxed sets of DVDs. Economist（经济学家）Tyler says that much of the joy we get from buying things lies in the experience of choosing them, getting them home, and opening them up. If you receive 18 DVDs in one package, you’ll use up the excitement all at once. Buy things one at a time and pleasure follows.Look outside. Our ancestors spent almost all of their time outside with trees, water, and sky around. The world in which most of us spend our time nowadays is unnatural and can harm the spirit. Getting close to nature makes you happy.________. Staying with animals works wonders. You can pet an animal. It increases the brain chemicals connected with pleasure and decreases those connected with stress. People can get some of the effect by hanging out for a few minutes with pets.Smile. Well, like it or not, smiling improves your mood（心情）. Here’s why: when you look happy, people do better to you, which in turn leads you to be happy. What’s more, looking happy fools your brain into thinking that you are happy.46．According to the writer, buying things one at a time can ____________.A. help us save some moneyB. spare time for other activitiesC. increase our experience of happinessD. give us more time to consider buying things47．What’s the best title for Paragraph 5?A.

The effect of pleasure on life.B. The writer’s own experience.C. Another way to find pleasure.D. Reasons for finding more pleasure.DHave you ever heard an echo（回声）of your voice?An echo is a reflected（反射）sound. Stand in a very large, empty hall with nothing on the walls. Then shout. The sounds you make will hit the walls and come back to you. The walls reflect the sounds. These reflected sounds are called "echoes".We can use reflected sound to make sound travel farther. Hold a watch about 50cm from your ear. You cannot hear it. The sound of the watch travels a short way in all directions. It does not travel as far as your ear. You can make it travel to your ear by using a roll of cardboard.Make the roll of cardboard about 50cm long. Put one end over your ear and hold the watch at the other. Now you can hear the watch because the sound has not gone in all directions. It is reflected down the roll to your ear.A megaphone（喇叭筒）works in the same way. It makes sound travel farther. It reflects the sound into a beam（光束）which can travel a long way. In the ship, the sailor uses the megaphone to make his voice travel. Without the megaphone, his voice cannot travel far.We use reflected sound in many ways. We use it to measure the depth of the sea, for example. Among the animals, bats（蝙蝠）and whales use reflected sound to tell them where they are and what things are near them.51．What is called an “echo”?A. Very loud voices that are made by man.B. Very loud voices that are made by animals.C. The sound that comes from the walls.D. The sound that is made by man or animals comes back from some place.52．We can hear our echoes if we shout .A. in a small roomB. in the open airC. in narrow valleys（山谷）D. in a large house full of things 53．Which is the right order of hearing our echo in a very large, empty hall? .a.
