But raising kids takes money and energy. Many older parents find themselves balancing their limited financial resources, declining energy and failing health against the growing demands of an active child. Dying and leaving young children is probably the older parents’ biggest, and often unspoken, fear. Having late-life children, says an economics professor, often means parents, particularly father s, “end up retiring much later.” For many, retirement becomes an unobtainable dream.Henry Metcalf, a 54-year-old journalist, knows it takes money to raise kids. But he’s also worried that his energy will give out first. Sure, he can still ride bikes with his athletic fifth grader, but he’s learned that young at heart doesn’t mean young. Lately he’s been taking afternoon naps (午睡) to keep up his energy. “My body is aging,” says Metcalf, “You can’t get away from that.”Often, older parents hear the ticking of another kind of biological clock. Therapists who work with middle-aged and older parents say fears about aging are nothing to laugh at. “They worry they’ll be mistaken for grandparents, or that they’ll need help getting up out of those little chairs in nursery school,” says Joann Galst, a New York psychologist. But at the core of those little fears there is often a much bigger one: “that they won’t be alive long enough to support and protect their child,” she says.Many late-life parents, though, say their children came at just the right time. After marrying late and undergoing years of fertility (受孕) treatment, Marilyn Nolen and her husband, Randy, had twins. “We both wanted children,” says Marilyn, who was 55 when she gave birth. The twins have given the couple what they desired for years, “a sense of family.”Kids of older dads are often smarter, happier and more sociable because their fathers are more involved in their lives. “The dads are older, more mature,” says Dr. Silber, “and more ready to focus o n parenting.”1. Why do psychiatrists regard maturity as an asset in child rearing? A) Older parents can better balance their resources against children’s demands. B) Older parents are usually more experienced in bringing up their children. C) Older parents are often better prepared financially.D) Older parents can take better care of their children.2. What does the author mean by saying “For many, retirement becomes an unobtainable dream” (Lines 7-8, Para. 1)?A) They have to go on working beyond their retirement age.B) They can’t get full pension unless they work some extra years.C) They can’t obtain the retirement benefits they have dreamed of.D) They are reluctant to retire when they reach their retirement age.3. The author gives the example of Henry Metcalf to show that _________.A) many people are young in spirit despite their advanced ageB) taking afternoon naps is a good way to maintain energyC) older parents tend to be concerned about their aging bodiesD) older parents should exercise more to keep up with their athletic children.4. What’s the biggest fear of older parents according to New York psychologist Joann Galst?A) Being laughed at by other people.B) Slowing down of their pace of life.C) Being mistaken for grandparents.D) Approaching of death.5. What do we learn about Marilyn and Randy Nolen?A) They thought they were an example of successful fertility treatment.B) Not until they had the twins did they feel they had formed a family.C) They believed that children born of older parents would be smarter.D) Not until they reached middle age did they think of having children.Passage twoLosing your ability to think and remember is pretty scary. We know the risk of dementia (痴呆症) increases with age. But if you have memory slips, you probably needn’t worry. There are pretty clear differences between signs of dementia and age-related memory loss.After age 50, it s quite common to have trouble remembering the names of people, places and things quickly, says Dr. Kirk Daffner of Brigham and Women s Hospital in Boston.The brain ages just like the rest of the body. Certain parts shrink, especially areas in the brain that are important to learning, memory and planning. Changes in brain cells can affect communication between different regions of the brain. And blood flow can be reduced as blood vessels narrow.Forgetting the name of an actor in a favorite movie, for example, is nothing to worry about. But if you forget the plot of the movie or don t remember even seeing it, that s far more concerning, Daffner says.When you forget entire experiences, he says, that s "a red flag that something more serious may be involved." Forgetting how to operate a familiar object like a microwave oven, or forgetting how to drive to the house of a friend you’ve visited many times before can also be signs of something going wrong.But even then, Daffner says, people shouldn’t panic. There are many things that can cause confusion and memory loss, including health problems like temporary stoppage of breathing during sleep, high blood第 4 页共11 页pressure, or depression, as well as medications (药物) like antidepressants.You don’t have to figure this out on your own. Daffner suggests going to your doctor to check on Array medications, health problems and other issues that could be affecting memory. And the best defense againstmemory loss is to try to prevent it by building up your brain s cognitive (认知的) reserve, Daffner says. "Read books, go to movies, take on new hobbies or activities that force one to think in novel ways," he says. In other words, keep your brain busy and working. And also get physically active, because exercise is a known brain booster.6. Why does the author say that one need’ t be concerned about memory slips?A) Not all of them are symptoms of dementia.B) They occur only among certain groups of people.C) Not all of them are related to one’s age.D) They are quite common among fifty-year-olds.7. What happens as we become aged according to the passage?A) Our interaction skills deteriorate.B) Some parts of our brain stop functioning.C) Communication within our brain weakens.D) Our whole brain starts shrinking.8. Which memory-related symptom should people take seriously?A) Totally forgetting how to do one s daily routines.B) Inability to recall details of one s life experiences.C) Failure to remember the names of movies or actors.D) Occasionally confusing the addresses of one s friends.9. What should people do when signs of serious memory loss show up?A) Check the brain s cognitive reserve.B) Stop medications affecting memory.C) Turn to a professional for assistance.D) Exercise to improve their well-being.10. What is Dr. Daffner’s advice for combating memory loss?A) Having regular physical and mental checkups.B) Taking medicine that helps boost one s brain.C) Engaging in known memory repair activities.D) Staying active both physically and mentally.Passage threeIn spring, chickens start laying again, bringing a welcome source of protein at winter’s end. So it’s nosurprise that cultures around the world celebrate spring by honoring the egg.第 5 页共11 页Some traditions are simple, like the red eggs that get baked into Greek Easter breads. Others elevate the egg into a fancy art, like the heavily jewel-covered “eggs” that were fav ored by the Russians starting in the 19th century.One ancient form of egg art comes to us from Ukraine. For centuries, Ukrainians have been drawing complicated patterns on eggs. Contemporary artists have followed this tradition to create eggs that speak to the anxieties of our age: Life is precious, and delicate. Eggs are, too.“There’s something about their delicate nature that appeals to me,” says New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast. Several years ago, she became interested in eggs and learned the traditional Ukrainian technique to draw her very modem characters. “I’ve broken eggs at every stage of the process—from the very beginning to the very, very end.”But there’s an appeal in that vulnerability. “There’s part of this sickening horror of knowing you’re w alking on the edge with this, that I kind of like, knowing that it could all fall apart at any second.” Chast’s designs, such as a worried man alone in a tiny rowboat, reflect that delicateness.Traditional Ukrainian decorated eggs also spoke to those fears. The elaborate patterns were believed to offer protection against evil.“There’s an ancient legend that as long as these eggs are made, evil will not prevail in the world,” says Joan Brander, a Canadian egg-painter who has been painting eggs for over 60 years, having learned the art from her Ukrainian relatives.The tradition, dating back to 300 B.C., was later incorporated into the Christian church. The old symbols, however, still endure. A decorated egg with a bird on it, given to a young married couple, is a wish for children. A decorated egg thrown into the field would be a wish for a good harvest.11.Why do people in many cultures prize the egg?A) It is a welcome sign of the coming of spring.B) It is their major source of protein in winter.C) It can easily be made into a work of art.D) It can bring wealth and honor to them.12.What do we learn about the decorated “eggs” in Russia?A) They are shaped like jewel cases.B) They are cherished by the rich.C) They are heavily painted in red.D) They are favored as a form of art.13.Why have contemporary artists continued the egg art tradition?A) Eggs serve as an enduring symbol of new life.B) Eggs have an oval shape appealing to artists.C) Eggs reflect the anxieties of people today.D) Eggs provide a unique surface to paint on.第 6 页共11 页第 7 页共 11 页14.Why does Chast enjoy the process of decorating eggs?A) She never knows if the egg will break before the design is completed. B) She can add multiple details to the design to communicate her idea. C) She always derives great pleasure from designing something new. D) She is never sure what the final design will look like until the end. 15.What do we learn from the passage about egg-painting? A) It originated in the eastern part of Europe. B) It has a history of over two thousand years. C) It is the most time-honored form of fancy art. D) It is especially favored as a church decoration.A bookless life is an incomplete life. Books influence the depth and breadth of life. They meet the natural 1)_____for freedom, for expression, for creativity and beauty of life. Learners, therefore, must have books, and the right type of book, for the satisfaction of their need. Readers turn 2)____ to books because their curiosity concerning all manners of things, their eagerness to share in the experiences of others and their need to 3) _____ from their own limited environment lead them to find in books food for the mind and the spirit. Through their reading they find a deeper significance to life as books acquaint them with life in the world as it was and it is now. They are presented with a 4)_____ of human experiences and come to5) _____ other ways of thought and living. And while 6)____ their own relationships and responses to life , the readers often find that the 7) ____ in their stories are going through similar adjustments, which help to clarify and give significance to their own.Books provide 8)______ material for readers’ imagination to grow. Imagination is a valuable quality and a motivating power, and stimulates achievement. While enriching their imagination, books 9)______their outlook, develop a fact-finding attitude and train them to use leisure 10)_____. The social and educational significance of the readers’ books cannot be overestimated in an academic library.Part IV . Fill in the blanks by selecting suitable letters for words fromthe word bank. You may not use any of the words more than once.（1x10）第 8 页共 11 页1. Consider also the heroic example of Abraham Lincoln, who faced substantial hardships, failures andrepeated misfortunes in his lifetime. Yet his strong will was the spur that pushed him forward, strengthening his optimism, dedication and determination. It intensified and focused his efforts and enabled him to triumph over the overwhelming failures and profound difficulties in his life. A hundred years later, people from around the world commend Abraham Lincoln as the greatest American president of all time.2. Thanks to modern aviation, we can now move through space at an inhuman speed. For the first time in human history, we can outrun the sun and move from one hemisphere to another in a single day. Of course, it's not enough to simply get on a plane. Most people, after all, escape to Paris so they don't have to think about those troubles they left behind. But here's the irony: Our mind is most likely to solve our most stubborn problems while we are sitting in luxury in a Left Bank café.Part V .

Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that "reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible."Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity: it can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public examination.If teacher and learner roles are distinguishable, how can teaching aid the child in the quest for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children."When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading.1.The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that ________.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. too much time is spent in teaching about readingC. students spend endless hours in readingD. reading tasks are assigned with little guidance2.The teaching of reading will be successful if ________.A. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of readingB. teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsC. teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable3.The word "examination" at the end of Paragraph 3 most probably means"________".A. inquiryB. observationC. controlD. suspicion4.According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when ________.A. children bee highly motivatedB. teacher and learner roles are identicalC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches children's experience5.The main idea of the passage is that ________.A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possibleC. reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more plicated than generally believedQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.Society usually tends to focus on the negative side of inner-city schools. Many people like to stereotype (模式化) these schools which, while these general statements may be true in some cases, tend to be worse most of the time. People think that the students of these schools receive inferior educations. My school, an inner-city school named St. Ignatius, is regarded as one of the best in the state. People also believe that violenceoccurs on a daily basis, both in the school itself and in the nearby city. I cannot even remember a serious fight at St. Ignatius. People who think that the teachers at inner-city schools lack love for their job worsen this typical stereotype even further. My teachers not only had a love for teaching, but they were also able to cultivate a love for learning in their students.Take Mrs. Borroni, my Spanish teacher, for example. She would often take time out of her class to tell her students about the numerous activities after class with which we should get involved. She loved her job so much that she stayed after school every day to moderate activities such as "Amnesty International" (an international organization that protects human rights) and the Spanish Club. Her students, including me, joined all of the clubs which she moderated just because she made them so interesting.After reading all of this, most people would argue that St. Ignatius should not be considered a true "inner-city school". While this may hold some truth, I am arguing that my life was greatly enriched simply because of the school's location in the middle of Cleveland, as opposed to a poor suburban area.6.What do people often think negatively about?A. Inner-city schools.B. Stereotypes.C. St. Ignatius.D. Violence.7.What can the author never remember seeing at St. Ignatius?A. Amnesty International.B. A serious fight.C. A Spanish club.D. Inferior students.8.What would Mrs. Borroni do after school?A. Give Spanish classes.B. Tell students about activities.C. Guide students in special groups.D. Help students love learning.9.Why might a reader of this article not view St. Ignatius as a real inner-city school?A. It is not in the middle of the city.B. It is in a poor suburban area.C. It enriched the author's life.D. It might be better than others.10.How does the author feel about inner-city schools?A. The stereotypes about them are not at all true.B. They are not necessarily all bad, as they can be good.C. They are much poorer than those in the suburbs.D. The students there are more enlightened.In 1913, the United States government introduced a bold, new nickel. James Earle Fraser said his goal was to design a coin that would be "truly American." In his search for symbols, he found none more distinctive than the American buffalo. Choosing to show a Native American on the other side of the coin, Fraser said the new nickel had "perfect unity of theme."Production of "Buffalo" or "Indian Head" nickels began in February 1913. A single coining press at the Philadelphia Mint (造币厂) started turning out the nickels at the rate of 120 a minute. But after the first examples were introduced, The New York Times said they were "bad."Other critics said that the coin's "rough" surfaces would encourage counterfeiters (造假币的人). But the most serious plaint about the nickel had to do with its inability to stand heavy use. One coin collectors' magazine predicted that the slightest wear would remove the date and the words Five Cents "beyond understanding."In 1938, the Government staged a petition for a new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson. According to a news item of the day, the Department of Indian Affairs didn't receive a single plaint from Native Americans about the design change. Collectors didn't seem to mind either.1.In the eyes of Fraser, a __________ is the most distinctive.A. nickelB. buffaloC. Native AmericanD. unity of theme2.In the second sentence, Paragraph 2, the word "press" means ________.A. publicationB. newspaperC. machineD. the act of pushing down3.The design of a buffalo was modified ________.A. because it was not able to stand heavy useB. because the words Five Cents were "beyond understanding"C. because the coin couldn't be pressed by the Philadelphia MintD. because the words were too high on the coin4.According to one collectors' magazine using a Native American and a buffalo was ________.A. a good ideaB. a bad ideaC. a perfect ideaD. a forced idea5.It seemed that the new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson ________.A. won much praise from collectorsB. caused strong protests from American IndiansC. was OK both to the collectors and American IndiansD. was praised both by the collectors and American IndiansQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.Time passed and my cards sold well. My enthusiasm for the greeting card business grew quickly. All along, I had been drawing fantasy art: monsters, dragons, castles, etc. With the birth of my first son in 1980, the content of my work went through a pretty dramatic change.Fantasy went out of the window, and I began to illustrate reality.In the spring of 1983, we, The Mary Engelbreit Greeting Card pany, took our 12 little designs to New York to exhibit them at a national card show.I remember how big the show was. I just couldn't get over it. I had no idea there were so many different card panies. And it was exciting because our 12 little cards were getting a lot of attention in that huge place!I've been told one of the reasons we had so much success at that show is because my card style was different than anything else at the market. I typically draw plicated details and use deep colors and funny or meaningful quotations.By 1985, many greeting card publishers started noticing my art, and two of them approached me with licensing contracts.I have always believed if you choose a job you love, you'll never work a day in your life. If you ask about the mystery of my success, all I can say is this: to imagine is everything!6.Before the birth of her first son, Mary Engelbreit's cards focused on ________.A. realityB. daily lifeC. fantasyD. dragons7.The New York show was so big that Engelbreit ________.A. couldn't walk through itB. couldn't believe itC. couldn't stay to the end of itD. couldn't understand it8.Engelbreit's cards were successful because ________.A. they were distinctive in styleB. they had a thank-you sentenceC. they had plicated detailsD. they were rich in color9.

Pills cost a lot of money. In Africa, AIDS drugs may cost more than a person makes in one year. At the same time, some American hospitals throw away a lot of pills. One man, named Lee Wildes, didn't think this was fair, so he decided to do something about it.Wildes lives in a small apartment in San Francisco. Every month, he sends AIDS drugs, which would've been thrown away, to Africa. His act of kindness has not been noticed much in his home country. In Africa though, he is well known. Many people in Africa send him s, asking him for the medicine they need.Lee was a nurse. He knows that millions of dollars worth of drugs are thrown away. Five years ago he learned he was sick with HIV. Following this discovery, he took a vacation to Africa and saw many people there with AIDS. His visit caused him to begin sending drugs to Africa.Lee talks with doctors in Africa by mail, and telephone. With their help, he has gotten the names and addresses for a hundred people in six African countries. He fills the pill orders and he records what pills he sends to them. He even returns to Africa, once a year, to see the people he's helping.Giving left over drugs away is against the law, as is giving out drugs without a license. However, it is not likely he'll be taken to court for his kindly efforts. People who have discovered his actions have not caused problems for him. They know that 25 million Africans are sick with AIDS, and they don't want to prevent him from helping.1.Why aren't more Africans taking AIDS drugs?A. They don't want to take something that was thrown away.B. They don't think that the drugs work.C. They can't work when taking them.D. They don't have enough money.2.What does Wildes do every month?A. Mail medicines to Africa.B. Take a trip to Africa.C. Throw away AIDS drugs.D. Send s to Africans.3.What did Wildes learn five years ago?A. Drugs are thrown away.B. He has AIDS.C. Africans need drugs.D. Hospitals are not fair.4.With whom does Wildes have phone conversations?A. A San Francisco nurse.B. 100 sick Africans.C. American doctors.D. African doctors.5.What do people think of Wildes' actions?A. They think he shouldn't break the law.B. They think he is doing good work.C. They think he will be taken to court.D. They think he is prevented from helping.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.The great river Nile (尼罗河) flows gently in its course through the hot plains in the first half of the year but later on when the melting (融化) snows and the rains on the mountains far to the south swell its tributaries (支流), the Nile overflows (泛滥). It spreads rich, muddy (泥泞的) soil from Ethiopia over its valley and forms deep stretches of green, fertile (肥沃的) lands along its banks. The settlers found that in the soft rich earth wheat and other crops could be planted, even without the use of the plough, and they began to make many settlements of farmers.In these early times they did not of course understand why the river overflowed each year. But they knew that their crops and, therefore, their lives, depended upon its magic (魔术似的) floods, and they explained the miracle as the work of gods.But there came some years when there was a "bad Nile". Sometimes the floods were not full and did not bring enough soil; the crops were poor and the people starved. At other times the waters were so great that they destroyed houses and villages, and drowned (淹死) men and beasts (牲畜). It took perhaps many centuries before the farmers learned how to control the Nile waters.Wise men among them watching the position of the stars year by year found that they could predict when the annual rising of the Nile would e. Thus they began to learn about the scientific study of the sun, earth, moon, and stars and could make a calendar of the years. They also learnt how to measure out the land so that it could be divided fairly again after the boundaries of the farms had been washed away by greatfloods. In this way, there came about ancient knowledge of engineering and of geometry.6.We can learn from this passage that the Nile is ______.A. always a gentle flowing riverB. hot in the first half of the year but cold later onC. likely to overflow at unknown times of the yearD. a life-giving river that makes the land rich7.The settlers began farming in the Nile valley because ______.A. they discovered that their crops could grow well in the soil thereB. they did not realize that the river would overflow sometimesC. they found many settlements of farmers in the valleyD. they realized that their crops depended on the floods8.The Nile was called the "bad Nile" at times because _______.A. the floods made the river difficult to controlB. the floods could only be predicted by wise menC. the river sometimes flooded too little or too muchD. the river took the good soil away to Ethiopia9.The Egyptians of that time learned to predict the floods by _______.A. studying the flooding of the Nile year by yearB. observing the position of the stars year by yearC. inventing some maps of the Nile floodsD. developing engineering and measuring land10.According to the passage, the ancient Egyptians ________.A. had studied the stars and made their own calendar of the yearsB. watched the fall and rise of the Nile and learned how to control the floodC. discovered science before the peoples of other nationsD. learned a lot about geometry and spread the knowledge all over the world。

Both the eye and thecamera have a lens, and both produce a picture on a screen. In each case the picture is made up of millions of spots of light.Let us see how the eye works. When we look at an object — a person, a house, or whatever it may be — we do not see all the details of the object in one piece. We imagine that we do, but this is not the case. In fact, the eye builds up the picture for us in our brain, which controls our sight, in millions of separate parts, and, although we do not realize it, all these details are seen separately.This is what happens when we look at something. Beams of light of different degrees of intensity, reflected from all parts of the objects, strike the lens of the eye. The lens then gathers together the spots of light from these beams and focuses them on to a light-sensitive plate — the retina — at the back of the eyeball. In this way an image of the object is produced on the retina in the form of a pattern of lights.The retina contains millions of minute light-sensitive elements, each of which is separately connected to the brain by a tiny fiber in the optic nerve. These nerve fibers, working independently, pick out minute details from the image on the retina and turn the small spots of light into nerve impulses of different strengths. They then transmit these impulses to the brain. They do this all at the same time.All the details of the image are fed to the brain, and, as we taught our brain to add them together correctly, we see a clear picture of the object as a whole.Television, which means vision at a distance, operates on a similar principle. A television picture is built up in thousands of separate parts.Beams of light reflected from the subject being televised strike the lens of the television camera, which corresponds to the lens of the eye. The camera lens gathers together the spots of light from these beams and focuses an image of the subject on to a place, the surface of which is coated with millions of photo-electric elements sensitive to light.The spots of light forming the image on the plate cannot be transmitted as light. So they are temporarily converted by an electronic device into millions of electrical impulses; that is, into charges of electricity.These electrical impulses are then sent through space on a wireless wave to the homes of the viewers. They are picked up by the aerials and conveyed to theIII. Reading Comprehension （30%）receivers — to the television sets. There, they are finally converted back into the spots of light that make up the picture on the television screen.41. In the first paragraph we are told that the television camera resembles thehuman eye in ________________.A. one wayB. two waysC. three waysD. a large number of ways42. The retina is _______________.A. a lensB. a beam of lightC. a part of the brainD. a light-sensitive plate43. The nerve fibers connecting these light-sensitive elements to the brain________________.A. all work togetherB. help each otherC. work independentlyD. work in small groups44. A camera lens focuses an image on to _______________.A. the subjectB. a surface made up of millions of light-sensitive elementsC. a television setD. millions of photo-electric beams of light45. The spots of light forming the image on the plate in a television camera areconverted into _____________.A. electricityB. picturesC. an electronic deviceD. a wirelessPassage twoAt sixteen Ron Mackie might have stayed at school, but the future called to him excitedly. “Get out of the classroom into a job,” it said, and Ron obeyed. His father, supporting the decision, found a place for him in a supermarket. “You’re lucky, Ron,”he said. “For every boy with a job these days, there’s a dozen with-out.” So Ron joined the working world at twenty pounds a week.For a year he spent his days filling shelves with tins of food. By the end of that time he was looking back on his school-days as a time of great variety and satisfaction. He searched for an interest in his work, with little success.One fine day instead of going to work Ron got a lift on a lorry going south. With nine pounds in his pocket, a full heart and a great longing for the sea, he set out to make a better way for himself. That evening, in Bournemouth, he had a sandwich and a drink in a café run by an elderly man and his wife. Before he had finished his sandwich, the woman had taken him for the rest of the summer, at twenty pounds a week, a room upstairs and three meals a day. The ease and speed of it rather took Ron’s breath away. At quite times, Ron had to check the old man’s arithmetic in the records of business.At the end of the season, he stayed on the coast. He was again surprised how straightforward it was for a boy of seventeen to make a living. He worked in shops mostly, but once he took a job in a hotel for three weeks. Late in October he was taken on by the sick manager of a shoe shop. Ron soon found himself in charge there; he was the only one who could keep the books.46. Why did Ron Mackie leave school at sixteen?A. His father made him leave.B. He had reached the age when he had to leave.C. He left because he was worried about the future.D. He left because he wanted to start work.47. What did Ron’s father think about his leaving school?A. He thought his son was doing the right thing.B. He advised him to stay at school to complete his education.C. He did not like the idea, but he helped Ron to find work.D. He knew there was a job for every boy who wanted one.48. It took about a year for Ron to realize that _____________.A. he worked well because he was interested in the job.B. his work at the supermarket was dull.C. being at work was much better than going to school.D. the stone manager wanted to get rid of him.49. Why did Ron leave the supermarket?A. He knew he would find work in Bournemouth.B. he took a job as a lorry driver.C. he gave up the job because he felt unwell.D. he wanted to work at the seaside.50. Ron was able to take over the shoe shop because _____________.A. he got on well with the manager there.B. he knew how to keep the accounts of the business.C. he had had experience of selling books.D. he was young and strong.Passage threeA strict vegetarian is a person who never in his life eats anything derived from animals. The main objection to vegetarianism（素食主义）on a long-term basis is the difficulty of getting enough protein—the body-building element in food. If you have ever been without meat or other animal foods for some days of weeks (say, for religious reasons) you will have notice that you tend to get physically rather weak. You are glad when the fast（禁食）is over and you get your reward of a delicious meat meal.Proteins are built up from about twenty food elements called “amino-acid” (氨基酸), which are found more abundantly in animal protein than in vegetable protein. This means you have to eat a great deal more vegetable than animal food in order to get enough of these amino-acids. A great deal of the vegetable food goes to waste in this process and from the physiological（生理学的）point of view there is not much to be said in favor of life-long vegetarianism.The economic side of the question, though, must be considered. Vegetable food is much cheaper than animal food. However, since only a small proportion of the vegetable protein is useful for body-building purposes, a consistent vegetarian, if he is to gain the necessary 70 grams (克) of protein a day, has to consume a great bulk of food than his digestive organs can comfortably deal with. In fairness, though, it must be pointed out that vegetarians claim they need far less than 70 grams of protein a day.51. A strict vegetarian _________________.A. rarely eats animal productsB. sometimes eats eggsC. never eats any animal productsD. never eats protein52. We feel weak when we go without meat and other animal products_________________.A. because we are reducing our food amountB. because we do not get enough proteinC. because vegetables do not contain proteinD. unless we take plenty of exercise53. Proteins are built up from _________________.A. about twenty different foodsB. about twenty different vegetablesC. various fats and sugarsD. about twenty different amino-acids54. Physiologically, life-long vegetarianism may not be good because_________________.A. it makes people very thinB. the body must process too much wasteC. the farmer lose moneyD. vitamin-deficiency diseases may result55. One thing in favor of vegetarianism is that __________________.A. vegetable food is easier to digestB. animal food is less expensiveC. vegetable food is cheaperD. it is good for the digestionPassage fourWe lost two superstars in 1977. Neither man’s admirers have been able to understand the success of the other one. And this tells us something of the difference between the generations that the two singers represent.There were similarities between Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley. Both reached fame while quite young and became very rich. Although neither one had any musical education, both developed their own musical styles — styles which were at first scorned by the critics and later studied as new forms in the art of popular song. Both men had successful movie careers despite a total lack of acting ability.Both were creations of the microphone, which made it possible for singers with weak voices to be heard beyond the third row. With Bing the microphone was usually hidden; but Elvis brought it to the stage, took it from its support, stroked it, pressed it to his lips.The difference between the two men reflects the changing values in American life. Crosby’s music was soothing; Presley’s was disturbing. Crosby was singing to wartime America. His audiences had all the disturbances they could handle in their private lives; they did not want to buy more at the record shop and the movie theater.Crosby’s admirers always said how “relaxed” he was, how “natural and easygoing.” When Presley began his career, the whole country had become relaxed and easygoing. Its young people, who had no memory of troubled times, found it boring. They were hungry for excitement. They welcomed Elvis, who was not soothing, and who was certainly not the kind of young man their parents would admire. Presley was loud, gaudy, and vulgar— and he was bringing something new and exciting.It is probably too simple to explain each man in terms of changes in the economic and political situation. Something in the culture was also changing. Crosby’s songs were saying something; their “message” was as important to the audience as the music. The words were often sweet and sentimental; ordinary, perhaps, but Crosby — and Frank Sinatra after him — gave them life and meaning. People remembered them, sang them, and thought of them as true to life. Although many of Presley’s songs were, in fact, quite sentimental too, it was mostly the song that moved the audiences. Rock’n’roll was a “sound” event. Songs stopped being songs and turned into noise.The Crosby generation has trouble with r ock’n’roll because it makes the mistake of trying to understand the words. The Presley generation has trouble with Crosby because it finds the music unexciting and the words empty. The mutuallack of understanding may be a sign of how far we have come from troubled times, and how deeply we now distrust the value of words.56. Crosby and Presley’s music was ___________________.A. criticized and then recognized as innovativeB. appreciated by the critics immediatelyC. praised by the critics and then studiedD. developed by the critics57. The difference between the two men ______________ the changing values inAmerican life.A. ruinsB. disturbsC. soothesD. mirrors58.

This passage is chiefly about ___________________.A. the troubled times that Crosby and Presley lived inB. the contrast between Presley’s and Crosby’s music and their audiencesC. wartime AmericaD. noisy r ock’n’roll新视野大学英语三级期末考试试卷(A) 考生注意：本试卷满分100分，考试时间120分钟（试卷二）Directions : Translate the following English into Chinese, or Chinese into English. 61.

His silent films were greeted with great enthusiasm by critics, and, at a time of expansion and increasing excitement for the British film industry, they were evidence that British films had reached an international standard. In 1929, Hitchcock was hailed by British critics for a film which used sound and dialogue with more imagination than any Hollywood or European film of the time. And in the mid-1930s, Hitchcock's films gave energy to the film industry with their fastpace and British sense of humor.After the outbreak of the Second World War the British press saidhe had "gone Hollywood". Throughout the 1940s and 1950s, Britishcritics favored realism over all else, and they looked down upon the Hollywood style that characterized much of Hitchcock's work during this time.In the 1960s and 1970s, when critics celebrated Hitchcock's films, it was mainly the Hollywood Hitchcock that they admired, and these (largely American and French) critics had little interest in his British films. Of course Hitchcock's public character in his later years was still very closely associated with his English background, as his appearances on the Alfred Hitchcock Presents television programs demonstrated. But his dark suits, manners, and humor seemed to be the style of a person overseas.It can be surprising, then, to discover the respect that Hitchcock enjoyed in his native country during his first dozen years as a director. When one of his films was first shown in 1926, it was declared to be a great piece of art and its director was proclaimed to be a young genius. Hitchcock was already twenty-seven years old at the time, but his rise did seem to have been remarkable.Hitchcock's start in filmsHe was born on the eastern edge of London, in Leytonstone, Essex, on 13th, August, 1899, and his family lived above a shop on Leytonstone High Road and later in the East End neighborhood of Poplar and Stepney. He left school at the age of fourteen, and worked as a clerk at the Henley Telegraph (电报) Company and took evening lessons in drawing at the University of London. In 1919, this skill enabled him to get a job as a title card designer with the American production company Famous Players-Lasky when it began making films in a converted power station in Islington.The Americans did not stay long in Islington, but Hitchcock's rise quickened when the studio was taken over by Michael Balcon's Gainsborough Pictures in 1924. Balcon allowed Hitchcock to work at different jobs for Gainsborough: as a set designer, writer, editor and as the assistant director to Graham Cutts, who was then Gainsborough's top director.The young directorIn 1925, Hitchcock was given his own assignments, as he directed two films that were filmed in Munich's Emelka Studios as part of a deal between Gainsborough and the German producer Erich Pommer. Neither film attracted much attention, and it was not untilhis third film, The Lodger (房客), that both the critics and the public took notice of Hitchcock.Indeed, The Lodger seemed able to please just about everyone. It had techniques informed by the international art cinema of the 1920s, a narrative form borrowed from Hollywood, and an English subject matter. It was a remarkable combination and a great example of late silent cinema. The Lodger also introduced several of Hitchcock's most enduring story elements: a hero whose virtue is in doubt, a love filled with suspicion, humor, and an interest in beautiful women. These elements would endure for many years.The Hitchcock touchDuring these early years Hitchcock was known primarily for the visual creativity of his films. The German director F.W. Murnau was a strong influence in this regard. While filming in Germany in 1924, Hitchcock visited Murnau. It was a key moment in his development as a filmmaker. Murnau's interest in an "unchained" camera and in a "pure cinema" (telling the story in visual terms alone) would be the lifelong interest of Hitchcock's too. He was also a member of the London Film Society, and its screening of French, German and Soviet art films, as well as early and pioneering American films, provided a unique forum for the consideration of film form and technique, and one that influenced Hitchcock and many other British filmmakers of the time.One can further point to Hitchcock's interest in drawing as a factor that enriched and enhanced the visual dynamic (强度) of his films. In his silent films, this was so striking that critics regularly discussed "the Hitchcock touch", referring to the visually dramatic sequences that distinguished his work. Such moments might convey an amusing, dark or romantic story plot (故事情节), or they might explain the meaning of the story, but they always demonstrated the director's ability to tell the story without relying on dialogues or explanations.Britain's finestIn 1927 Hitchcock left Gainsborough for the larger British International Pictures (BIP), and his new contract made him the highest paid director in Britain. Being assigned to direct BIP's first talking film was another sign of his status, and the film proved that such regard was fully deserved. At the time, many people interested in cinema thought that the use of speech would reducecinema to being only "pictures of people talking", but Hitchcock's inventive use of sound demonstrated that the new technology actually opened a new world of possibilities.Many have said that Hitchcock found his true calling with the 1930s thrillers, while for others this concentration on one type of film represented a limitation of Hitchcock's talents and interests. Either way, their popularity ensured that he was invited to Hollywood, and in 1939 he took up a contract with the producer David O. Selznick.This opportunity must have looked great. In the late 1930s, the British film industry had entered a financial crisis, and its difficulties would only become larger with the start of war. Yet it is evident that Hitchcock was eager to hold onto ties with Britain. He returned in wartime to make two short films for the Ministry of Information.In the immediate post-war period, he formed a production company that was designed to enable him to make films in Britain, and to free him from the interference of Hollywood producers such as Selznick. Of the company's two films only one was filmed in Britain, and although both are remembered for their bold experimentation with long takes and deep focus, neither was a popular success. His company soon folded, and Hitchcock subsequently worked with a range of Hollywood studios.He made only two further films in Britain. The first was a thriller set in the West End theatre world that had excited him in his youth, but the film's sense of time and place was weakened by its international cast and its curiously limited use of location shooting. The second, shown in 1972, seemed to hit much closer to home and could be seen to represent a remake of The Lodger. The story was centered on a man who was wrongly believed to be a killer of women, and it was filmed with a largely British cast and in a London setting, the old Covent Garden market. This is not Hitchcock's last film, but it can be seen as a revisiting of his career's dramatic beginnings in Britain and as a homecoming for a director who found his greatest success and popularity abroad.1.Thanks to Hitchcock's early films, the British could claim theirfilms were as good as others.（A）A.

Pills cost a lot of money. In Africa, AIDS drugs may cost more than a person makes in one year. At the same time, some American hospitals throw away a lot of pills. One man, named Lee Wildes, didn't think this was fair, so he decided to do something about it.Wildes lives in a small apartment in San Francisco. Every month, he sends AIDS drugs, which would've been thrown away, to Africa.His act of kindness has not been noticed much in his home country.In Africa though, he is well known. Many people in Africa send him e-mails, asking him for the medicine they need.Lee was a nurse. He knows that millions of dollars worth of drugs are thrown away. Five years ago he learned he was sick with HIV.Following this discovery, he took a vacation to Africa and saw many people there with AIDS. His visit caused him to begin sendingdrugs to Africa.Lee talks with doctors in Africa by mail, e-mail and telephone. With their help, he has gotten the names and addresses for a hundred people in six African countries. He fills the pill orders and he records what pills he sends to them. He even returns to Africa, once a year, to see the people he's helping.Giving left over drugs away is against the law, as is giving out drugs without a license. However, it is not likely he'll be taken to court for his kindly efforts. People who have discovered his actions have not caused problems for him. They know that 25 million Africans are sick with AIDS, and they don't want to prevent him from helping.1.Why aren't more Africans taking AIDS drugs?A. They don't want to take something that was thrown away.B. They don't think that the drugs work.C. They can't work when taking them.D. They don't have enough money.2.What does Wildes do every month?A.

They think he is prevented from helping.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.The great river Nile (尼罗河) flows gently in its course through the hot plains in the first half of the year but later on when the melting (融化) snows and the rains on the mountains far to the south swell its tributaries (支流), the Nile overflows (泛滥). It spreads rich, muddy (泥泞的) soil from Ethiopia over its valley and forms deep stretches of green, fertile (肥沃的) lands along its banks. The settlers found that in the soft rich earth wheat and other crops could be planted, even without the use of the plough, and they began to make many settlements of farmers.In these early times they did not of course understand why the river overflowed each year. But they knew that their crops and, therefore, their lives, depended upon its magic (魔术似的) floods, and they explained the miracle as the work of gods.But there came some years when there was a "bad Nile". Sometimes the floods were not full and did not bring enough soil; the crops were poor and the people starved. At other times the waters were so great that they destroyed houses and villages, and drowned (淹死) men and beasts (牲畜). It took perhaps many centuries before the farmers learned how to control the Nile waters.Wise men among them watching the position of the stars year byyear found that they could predict when the annual rising of the Nile would come. Thus they began to learn about the scientific study of the sun, earth, moon, and stars and could make a calendar of the years. They also learnt how to measure out the land so that it could be divided fairly again after the boundaries of the farms had been washed away by great floods. In this way, there came about ancient knowledge of engineering and of geometry.6.We can learn from this passage that the Nile is ______.A. always a gentle flowing riverB. hot in the first half of the year but cold later onC. likely to overflow at unknown times of the yearD. a life-giving river that makes the land rich7.The settlers began farming in the Nile valley because ______.A. they discovered that their crops could grow well in the soilthereB. they did not realize that the river would overflow sometimesC. they found many settlements of farmers in the valleyD. they realized that their crops depended on the floods8.The Nile was called the "bad Nile" at times because _______.A. the floods made the river difficult to controlB. the floods could only be predicted by wise menC. the river sometimes flooded too little or too muchD. the river took the good soil away to Ethiopia9.The Egyptians of that time learned to predict the floods by_______.A. studying the flooding of the Nile year by yearB. observing the position of the stars year by yearC. inventing some maps of the Nile floodsD. developing engineering and measuring land10.According to the passage, the ancient Egyptians ________.A. had studied the stars and made their own calendar of theyearsB. watched the fall and rise of the Nile and learned how tocontrol the floodC. discovered science before the peoples of other nationsD. learned a lot about geometry and spread the knowledge allover the world返回我的课程测试成绩报告单试卷标准或参考答案将在1天后显示。

It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition (营养不良)and heat-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk, who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr., a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies以新视野大学英语3为教材的英语测试disaster trends, said the Forum's report was "a methodological embarrassment" because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from thegrowth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受伤害的) regions. Dr. Pielke said tha t “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.” But the report, he said, "will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的)."However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic losses from climate change are occurring in poor countries, according to the report.31. What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.32. What do we learn about the Forum's report from the passage?A It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C It was warmly received by environmentalists.D It caused a big stir in developing countries.33. What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum's report?A Its statistics look embarrassing.B It is invalid in terms of methodology.C It deserves our closest attention.D Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.34. What is Soren Andreasen's view of the report?A Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D Its rough estimates are meant to draw the attention of world leaders.35. What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?A How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C How emissions of heat-trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.Part Ⅲ Cloze (20%)One factor that can influence consumers is their mood state.

We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes.We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is important in helping the second generation establish their identity.1.Which people are having trouble with language?A. Natives.B. People of the 2nd generation.C. People when born.D. Immigrants.2.Why are children ignoring their parents?A. Children have lost their identity.B. Parents cause children to suffer.C. They speak different languages.D. They have different job levels.3.The author's aunt taught Korean ________.A. so she could preserve her languageB. so she would have a job in AmericaC. to help children succeed in their new countryD. to help children keep their Korean identity4.The author's cousins felt ________.A. they were not similar to people in KoreaB. they could not get a job in AmericaC. it was all right to look and feel differentD. it was important to keep their identity5. A proper title for this passage is ________.A. The Identity of the Second GenerationB. Korean Problems in AmericaC. Learning a New Language in the USD. Keeping Your Culture in a New LandQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.Two similar-sounding English words caused trouble for a man who wanted to fly from Los Angeles to Oakland, California. His problems began at the airport in Los Angeles. He thought he heard his flight announced, so he walked to the gate, showed his ticket, and got on the plane. After flying for twenty minutes, the man began to worry. Oakland was north of Los Angeles, but the plane seemed to be heading west, and when he looked out his window all he could see was ocean. "Is this plane going to Oakland?" he asked the flight attendant (服务员). The flight attendant was shocked. "No," she said. "We're going to Auckland-Auckland, New Zealand."English is not the only language with similar-sounding words. Other languages, too, have words that can cause mistakes, especially for foreigners.Auckland and Oakland. When similar-sounding words cause a mistake, probably the best thing to do is just laugh and learn from it. Of course, sometimes it's hard to laugh. The man who traveled to Auckland instead of Oakland didn't feel like laughing. But even that mistake turned out all right in the end. The airline (航空公司) paid for the man's hotel room and meals in New Zealand and for his flight back to California. "Oh well," the man later said, "I always wanted to see New Zealand."6.The main topic of this passage is ________.A. mistakes made by people in airportsB. troubles experienced by foreigners in a new countryC. difficulties had by people when taking a planeD. problems caused by words that sound alike7.She told him the plane would arrive in ________.A. OaklandB. AucklandC. Los AngelesD. California8.The man realized something was wrong when ________.A. he landed in Oakland, CaliforniaB. he saw that the flight attendant was shockedC. he noticed the direction of the planeD. he walked up to the gate9.The sentence "Oh well, I always wanted to see New Zealand."reflects ________.A. the man's sense of humorB. the man's frustrationC. the man's disappointmentD. the man's despair10.According to the passage one proper way to deal with amistake caused by similar-sounding words is ________.A. to have a sharp earB. to learn a good pronunciationC. to speak clearly and slowlyD. to laugh and learn from itQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage or dialog.Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was there—her children, her grandchildren, and her new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival(节日).Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday.Actually, the timing of Yinlan's death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists (社会学家) studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the mind's power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone (推延) their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time.The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life until after an important event. The stories people tell, however, are just that: stories. They are not proof that people can postpone their deaths. The sociologists' work is important because the sociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts—the drop and rise in death rates—prove that people really can postpone their deaths.11.When did Yilan die?A. During the Harvest Moon Festival.B. Before going to sleep.C. Just before the Harvest Moon Festival.D. A couple days after the Harvest Moon Festival.12.The writer tells us the story of Yilan to let us know that_________.A. the Harvest Moon Festival is important to elderly Chinese womenB. Chinese families get together to enjoy the Harvest Moon FestivalC. families are often sad during the Harvest Moon FestivalD. people may be able to put off death for an important event Array13.Where did the study take place?A. China.B. Yilan's home.C. Festival grounds.D. California.14.What does the author describe as "not new"?A. The work of sociologists.B. Proof of postponing death.C. The Harvest Moon Festival.D. Stories of putting off death.15.What provides us with proof?A. The stories of family members.B. The numbers showing death rates.C. The important events.D. The postponing of death.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage or dialog.Today's trumpet (喇叭，小号) is one of the world's oldest instruments. It is the result of many centuries of development. Although it looks nothing like the ones of old days, there are many similarities. All trumpets are hollow tubes (管) They are all blown. And they all use the player's lips to produce their basic sound. The trumpet developed as players and makers worked to improve its design, size, shape, material, and method of construction. Theywanted to create an instrument that would produce a beautiful andattractive tone, enable the performer to play all the notes of the scale, extend the range higher and lower, make it possible to play more difficult music, and in general, be easier to play well. The remarkable way in which the modern trumpet achieves these goals is a measure of the success of all those who struggled to perfect this magnificent instrument.The trumpet is actually the leading member of an entire family of related instruments. There are trumpets of several different sizes, and in several different keys. There are cornets (短号), bugles (军号), flugelhorns (粗管短号), and a number of others that are all similar to the trumpet in the way they are made and played.The trumpet family is much more than a group of related instruments that can stir one with their sound, or narrow tubes of metal capable of producing a variety of musical sounds. It is a link to many different periods of history and to people of many cultures. From the use of trumpets in ancient religious ceremonies to the part they play in modern rock bands, the trumpet family of instruments has much to tell about civilization and its development.16.How do trumpets all resemble each other?A. They require the same force when blowing them.B. They make the same sound when playing them.C. They use a player's lips to make a sound.D. They have the same size of hollow tube.17.Why did players and makers want to improve the trumpet?A. They wanted an instrument that'd be easy to play.B. They wanted an instrument to play easy music.C. They wanted an instrument of different sizes.D. They wanted an instrument that looked attractive.18.What is the trumpet the leading member of?A. Trumpet family instruments.。

Before he left the house in the morning, he would carefully close all the doors downstairs, open some windows upstairs to let the air in, and lock the front door.One summer evening, Jonathan returned home as usual. When he opened the front gate, he immediately noticed something strange. There was a heavy footprint in the earth in one of the flowers beds. Then he noticed that one of the white curtains in the front room downstairs was out of place. Jonathan never left anything out of place.He walked up to the front door and opened it quietly. He listened carefully for a few moments but could hear nothing. Inside, the front-room door was half open. Jonathan studied it thoughtfully, wondering if he had forgotten to close it that morning. He stepped silently across the hall to the door and looked inside the room. The shadow of a man was clearlyreflected on the far wall in the evening sunlight. The man had clearly been standing behind the door since Jonathan's return. Jonathan immediately locked the door. Then he calmly picked up the telephone in the hall and set about calling the police.The burglar (盗贼), a tall fellow, tried to climb through a window to get out but Jonathan had expected that. He attacked him with his umbrella, using it like a sword (剑). Three minutes later the police arrived. Jonathan was a little annoyed (苦恼的) that he had to have dinner later than usual, but on the whole he felt quite pleased with himself.31. Jonathan had the habit of doing things in the same way every day.32. One summer evening, Jonathan returned home to find the front door to the outside of his house was open.33. Jonathan thought that he forgot closing the door that day.34. It was too late for Jonathan to catch the burglar when he got out through a window.35.

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Letter writing is becoming less and less common as millions of young people connect daily with their friends through the Internet. The Internet is quickly becoming the place, similar to department stores, where people of the younger generation go to talk with each other.Some young people use the phone less and stay online moreto keep in touch with others. Professors are of the opinion that the online connection is a positive development for an age group that desires to keep social relations.Today, 80 percent of American young people use the Net, according to Global TGI, a market research firm. By 2010, that number will climb to 95 percent.Although most young people say they still prefer talking by telephone because they can express feelings, many say they spend more time online. There are different reasons for that. First, online communication is relatively fast, cheap, and easy--especially compared to long-distance phone calls. Then there is the awareness that the Internet is a recent development, and, therefore, cool."Y oung people always have to be up on what's new," says Henkart, a high school junior from California. "Since email is cool, young people want to find out what the excitement is about."36. Why do many young people still prefer the phone to the Internet?37. What percentage of American young people will use the Internet by 2010?38. According to professors, talking online is a positive means of _________________.39. What are the major benefits of online communication?40.

The two of them were busy with pencils and paper, checking their list of luggage (行李) when there was a ring at the door. Mrs. Jones went to open it, and saw a well-dressed middle-aged lady outside. The lady said that she lived in a flat beside theirs, and that she had come to welcome them to their new home.Mrs. Jones invited her in. "I hope you'll excuse us for all this mess (杂乱)," said Mrs. Jones, "We are trying..." "Oh, that's quite all right," said the lady. "Do you know, in some parts of this town, neighbors are not at all friendly? There are some streets-and even some buildings-where people don't know their neighbors-not even their next-door ones. But in this building, everyone is a friend with everybody else. We are one big, happy family. I'm sure you'll be happy here."The lady was greatly surprised when she visited the same flat the next time, because she found that a different man and a woman had moved in. On the lady's first visit, Mr. and Mrs. Jones had not the heart to tell her they were not the new owners of the flat, but the old owners, who had lived beside her for two years. All this time she had never visited or even noticed Mr. and Mrs. Jones, her next-door neighbors.41. Someone knocked at the door when Mr. and Mrs. Jones were ________.A. cleaning their houseB. counting (数) their luggageC. moving their furnitureD. writing their shopping list42.

The 4.part of it was that my grandfather, who had always been quite humorous, could 5.communicate after that. He just didn't seem to be the 6.person anymore.My grandfather was a fat man. After the 7., it took my grandmother, my mother and me to dress him each morning.After he was dressed, we 8.his pillow and sat him in his bed.His everyday life was wholly 9.of watching whatever was on the TV. He couldn't 10.change the channel.The doctors had worked hard to 11.him alive. However, a few weeks 12.they told us something disappointing. The surgical 13.had not been successful. My grandfather's condition had no 14.of improvement. Next, X-rays showed my grandfather had obtained a lung 15.—a frequent problem with stroke patients. Drugs would make him sick and could not 16.him.That was the time for us to make a 17.decision. On the one hand, we could not 18.to see our once vigorous grandfather suffering. He was living the painful, limited life to which the stroke had 19.him. On the other hand, we hated to be the one to decide to let nature take its course.At last we decided that the right thing to do would be to let him die with 20. .He died a peaceful death.Questions 21 to 40 are based on the following passage.Sometimes medical advancements present us with a toughchoice to make. People think medicine has created some 21.questions to sort out. For example, modern medical treatment can keep the body living well after patients have lost 22.tolive. We have machines to 23.as organs. And we can feed a person by letting fluids 24.into their body. This can be done25.they can't eat themselves.

Many believe that people nowadays are kept alive for much 40.than they should be.Some even believe that the kindest thing to do for a person who is dying and in a good deal of pain is to help them to die quickly and painlessly.You must face the fact that in your inmost heart you hate the thought of moving. It is easiest not to leave the rooms where your children passed through their wonderful childhood and annoying teens to a friendly but slightly distant maturity.Until, suddenly one day, the distance is absolute and they are grown up and gone. Then you find yourself living in too large a house, which consumes in its maintenance too much energy and money. When we found ourselves in this situation a few years ago, we determined to move while we still had the strength and before the emotional ties that the old house had wrapped around us became too powerful to be broken. Move while you can! But be sure you really want to, and do not move too often. It is an exhausting process.Your first task is to find a house that will suit you. It must be smaller, quieter, easier to run, and more conveniently placed for transport. Not so small, though, that it will not have room for your largest pieces of furniture, and located not too far from the neighborhood where so many friendships have been built up.At last we found one: a late Victorian cottage, in a street where the houses, all small, range from late 18th to mid 20th century. It was near enough to where we wanted to live. It had no basement (底下层), which was a great convenience for aging legs; there were only two floors: one for ourselves and one where friends, children, and grandchildren could spread themselves when they came to stay. Each floor had two rooms. There was a kitchen on the ground floor, with the bathroom above it.1.The passage concerns ________.A. buying a house for a newly married coupleB. buying a large house for a growing familyC. buying a better house when people have more money tospendD. buying a smaller house for older people whose childrenhave left home2.The passage implies that grown-up children are _______.A. more friendly to their parents when they are grown upB. distant from their parentsC. friendly but not very closeD. annoying3.The author decided to move ________.A. when his house gave him too much work and cost too muchto runB. when he grew tired of his houseC. when he suddenly got the strength to do soD. before the house collapsed4.The author advises people in his own situation ________.A. to move into a very small houseB. to move somewhere where the largest possible pieces offurniture will fitC. not to move too far from the main roadD. to choose somewhere not so noisy5.According to the passage, the new house had _________.A. two floorsB. three floorsC. four floorsD. two bathroomsQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.Is teaching important? Well, of course it is. There was a time when all necessary knowledge could be taught to the young by family members. But as societies became more complex and division of labor more common, it was impossible for family members to teach the information and skills young people needed to become useful members of the society. As the need for specialists appeared, the job of teaching came into being in our country, and teaching as a job has been of increasing importance over the past one hundred years. Today, we have strict rules for teachers. We hope all children can go to school. Many things tell us that teaching is indeed an "important" job.In recent years, there has been an increasing need for teachers to be "responsible". This means that the public expects teachers to succeed in teaching important information to the young. Teachers' salaries today, while not much, certainly are much higher than they were in the past. These increases have come about because people have realized that quality people, individuals who are highlyable to teach, will not do it if they are not offered enough money. Today almost no one says that "anybody will do" for a teacher. The public expects "quality people" to teach the young, and progress is being made to give salaries that will make people who have abilities become teachers.6.In the author's opinion, the job of a teacher ________.A. is done best by family membersB. is too complex for most peopleC. is free of rulesD. is important for society7.The cause for the new job of "teacher" was ________.A. the increased importance of laborB. the need for specialistsC. the strict rules of the governmentD. the increased number of children in school8.According to the writer, ________ is on the increasenowadays.A. a need for teachers to have responsibility for themselvesB. a need for teachers to teach responsibility to studentsC. the numbers of students who are entering schoolD. the numbers of people who take the job of teacher9.We learn from this passage that ________.A. money encourages teachers to be responsibleB. money is not a responsible reason to become a teacherC. money is a good way to attract people to become teachersD. money was much higher for teachers in the past10.What do people hardly ever say these days?A. Anyone can be a teacher.B. Progress is being made.C. Teachers have abilities.D. Quality people are teaching the young.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog.For most people learning to drive, the driving test arises ahead as a major barrier. It is also a general source of conversation whenever drivers are gathered together. There are probably more tall stories about the driving test than about any other motoring subjects; the most remarkable thing about those stories is the number of times the old ones appear again, years after they were first heard, in new and exaggerated forms.All driving examiners have had to pass a very strict selection process, followed by at least six weeks' training. In the course of this training the Department makes sure that their driving is of a consistently high standard.Driving test centers are chosen with equal care. It would be nice to have centers and examiners town by town. But this is just not possible, because the centers have to be at places where there is enough parking space for candidates (考生) and where there are enough test routes. Routes are carefully chosen to make sure that they are all roughly comparable-the proportion of right and left turns, hills, pedestrian (行人) crossings and so on. The object of all this is to make sure, as far as possible, that all candidates in the driving test have to cope with the same sort of conditions whether they take the test in New York or California.The work that examiners do in actually carrying out tests is checked continuously by supervising examiners. This is to make as sure as possible that every candidate for the driving test has a proper and equal chance of showing the examiner, in the words of the Regulations, "that he is competent to drive without danger to and with due consideration for other users of the road." This is all that the examiner is concerned with.11.It can be learned from the passage that _______.A. whenever people learning to drive get together, they oftentalk about the driving testB. new and exaggerated stories about the test are alwaysappearingC. there are more tall stories about the driving test than anyother subjectD. the same stories about the test reappear years later12.According to the passage, driving examiners _______.A. are trained for six weeks, then have a difficult selectioninterviewB. are given regular driving tests themselves by supervisingexaminersC. sometimes have more than six weeks' trainingD. are tested during the selection process to see if their drivingis of a high standard13.There isn't a test center in every town because ________.A. some examiners can go to occasional centers from thepermanent centersB. routes and conditions have to be the same everywhereC. there has to be enough parking space for the candidatesand the examinersD. not every town could provide enough test routes close topermanent centers14.We can judge from this passage that ________.A. the detailed records are checked after each test by asupervising examinerB. sometimes candidates are tested by a supervisingexaminerC. it's true that some examiners never pass anyone onThursday afternoonsD. examiners are only concerned with a candidate's ability todrive15.It can be inferred from this passage that ________.A. test routes have roughly the same conditions everywhereB. candidate drivers pass the testC. all candidates are treated equally by the examiners duringthe testD. some test centers do not have enough parking spaceQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog. Equipment operator Dick Kemp is the proud owner of over 90 old trucks. Some of his vehicles date back as far as 1916, just twenty years after the first motorized truck was ever built and a time when there were only 160,000 trucks in the United States-compared with the 36,000,000 trucks that roar along the nation's highways nowadays. One of Kemp's most unusual trucks is a 1916 Selden with wooden spikes which was once used as a street sprinkler. Kemp began his collection in 1952 with a 1930 Bulldog Mack whichhe bought for only $50. This same vehicle was valued in the year 2006 at nearly a thousand times that price. Every year thousands of visitors come from all over the U.S. and Canada to see Kemp's collection, which is exhibited in a large garage and in a yard next-door. The Mack Truck Museum is open for public viewing and there is no charge. There is even a model truck playground for children to play in while their parents look at the real things.Kemp does his own restoration work, making all the trucks look shiny and run smoothly. Many truck parts he has to make for himself because manufacturers have discontinued production long, long ago. He has received countless offers to sell his trucks, but his answer is always the same: "Nothing for Sale".16.The passage says that Dick Kemp's job is ________.A. museum workerB. equipment operatorC. truck driverD. truck manufacturer17.In which year was Kemp's unusual Selden truck made?A. 1952.B. 1916.C. 1930.D. 2006.18.Where does Kemp show his trucks?A. In and near a garage.B. Around the US and Canada.C. On the nation's highways.D. In a museum next to his home.19.________ might be appropriate for children.A. The Mack Truck MuseumB. Kemp's truck playgroundC. Restoration workD. Kemp's collection20.What does Kemp do himself?A. Order discontinued parts.B. Operate the museum.C. Repair the trucks.D. Sell the trucks.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the same passage or dialog.A devastating quake ripped through Turkey. American structural engineers say there was something that might have lessened the damage and saved lives. Pictures of the devastation in Turkey show us what engineers already know: a powerful earthquake has an ally in a weak building.Jim Malley of Degenkolb Engineers said, "The most common form of multi-story building in Turkey is a concrete frame." He says, "These are very heavy buildings and it's not uncommon for them to collapse in earthquakes because of the extra weight."Malley says the risk of building collapse increases when the first floor is a shop, because glass windows replace brick walls. "Undoubtedly, there was a glass store front at this level, and that made it much weaker. As a result, we got the collapse of that first story." Also, Malley says Turkey's concrete frame buildings often lack reinforcing steel.In California, each big quake teaches engineers another way of dealing with the problem. They have learned to use steel frames to reduce the weight of new buildings.Janiele Maffei shows a San Francisco skyscraper under construction. She says, "The building is designed to move and to sway, and the connections to stay together."The 1994 Northridge, California quake taught people about the weakness of rigid joints. Engineers found a simple solution. Janiele Maffei demonstrates this in the building under way."See to the right of the connection, see the structure? See how it looks smaller in some points? That's called a dog bone; you can see how it looks like a dog bone, how it is small in the middle and big on the ends. What that will do is it will take the stresses away from the connection, and concentrate them in that smaller section of the structure."21.How can an earthquake be helpful?A. It can cause buildings that are too old to collapse.B. It can get rid of the buildings that are made of concrete.C. It can teach people how to make safer buildings.D. It can teach people how to be safe in buildings.22.What can make a building heavy, and therefore increase therisk of it collapsing?A. A shop on the first floor.B. The use of concrete.C. Glass store fronts.D. Brick walls.23.In California, builders have learned to use ________ to reducerisk.A. brick wallsB. glass windowsC. skyscrapersD. steel frames24.Because of one Californian earthquake, engineers understandthe problem of _________.A. steel framesB. reinforcing steelC. shop windowsD. joints that are too firm25.In the final paragraph, Janiele Maffei is describing ________.A. a new type of skyscraperB. a new kind of jointC. a weakness of skyscrapersD. a bone material used in building。
