Mr and Mrs Tisich called a family meeting. “ We’ve had to make a difficult decision, “ Mr Tisich announced. “You see, you mother has been offered a post as codirector of a television station in Chicago. Unfortunately, the station is not here. After thinking long and hard about it, we’ve concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”Marc looked shocked, while his sister Rached breathlessly started asking when they’d be moving. “It’s surprising, but exciting!” She said Marc simply said, “We can’t go --- I can’t leave all my friends. I’d rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons!”The Tisichs hoped that by the time they moved in August, Marc would grow more accustomed to the idea of leaving. However, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings.When the morning of the move arrived, Marc was nowhere to be found. His parents called Tommy Lyons’s house, But Mrs Lyons said she hadn’t seen Marc.

But something happened on the way as Marc walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood; the fence that he andhis mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together. How much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place?

Mr John Evans had never found the time or the money – to make the trip from his house near Swansea. But, when British Rail offered him an all-expenses-paid birthday trip to the capital , he just could not refuse.Until yesterday he had never been far from home, except for one trip to Aberdeen. Mr Evans, who spent 60 years working as a miner in South Wales , al most made the journey to London once before, at the turn of the century. “There was a trip to the White City but it was ten shillings(1 shilling =1/20 pound) return from Swansea –too much I thought. All my money went to the family then, “ he said.During the next two days Mr Evans will be taken on a whistle – stop tour of London to see the sights. Top of his list is a visit to the Houses of Parliament(国会).The only arrangement he does not care for is the wheelchair provided to move him about if he gets tired. “ I don’t like the chair business –people will so think I am getting old,” he said.His secret for a long and healthy life has been well publicized – no alcohol, no cigarette and no angry. Before setting off from Swansea with his 76-year-old son, Amwel , he quipped,“ I’m glad to see they’ve given me a return ticket. “78. It was reported that Mr Evans’s healthy long life was to a certain extent due to his _________.A.wine drinkingB. proper smokingC. mild temperD. sense of humor79. Which of the following statements is true?A. A single trip from Mr Evans’s house to the White City use d to be ten shillings.B.The first place for Mr Evans to visit is the Houses of Parliament.C.He appreciated people’s arrangement of a wheelchair during his visitD.Mr Evans once made the journey to London at the end of the century.80.

What might be the best title for this passage?A. 110-year-old TouristB. Secret for Long and Healthy LifeC. Free Return TicketD. Sightseeing in LondonDWhen we walk through the city, we all experience a kind of information overload but we pay attention only to those that are important to us. we don’t stop, we keep our faces expressionless and eyes straight ahead, and in doing so, we are not just protecting ourselves but are avoiding overloading other people as well.We make use of stereotypes(刻板的模式) as convenient ways to make quick judgements about situations and people around us. They may not always be accurate, and they can often be dangerous wrong, but they are used regularly.The problem with the stereotypes is that they restrict experience. By using limited clues to provide us with a rapid opinion of other people or places we may choose to limit outcommunication. We may decide not to go to certain places because we believe they will not offer something we enjoy.In the city, styles of dress are particularly important with regard to self-presentation. Different groups often use clearly identifiable styles of clothes so that they can be easily recognized. It is becoming increasingly common for brand names to be placed on the outside of clothes , and this labeling makes it easy to send out information about fashion and price instantly, and lets others tell at a distance whether an individual has similar tastes and is a suitable person to associate with.In England, where social grouping or class continues to make social distinctions(区分), clothes hairstyles, people’s pronunciation and the number of speaking are all clues to our social group class distinction tend to be relatively fixed, although in the city where greater variety is permitted, they are more likely to be secondary determining factors of friendship and association.82. People walking in cities ignore the surroundings because _________.A. they do not wish to talk to other peopleB. everyone else is expressionlessC. the environment is already familiar to themD. there is too much information to take in83.According to the passage, the main disadvantage of using stereotypes is that they_________.A.are likely to lead us into dangerous situationB.may make us miss some pleasant experienceC.can rarely be relied onD. make us mentally lazy84. From the passage m\we may conclude that _____________.A.stereotypes can help to understand people fully.B.people are becoming more interested in fashionC.dressing can send messages about individualsD.stereotypes can do more harm than good to people85. It would appear that in England, a person’s class _______________.A.might be less important in making friends in a cityB.is mainly determined by his pronunciationC.plays less of a role than it did in the past.D.is something that can be changed easily2001年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试上海英语试题第二卷(共40分)I Translation (15 points)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.我们的祖国从来没有像今天这样强大。

Reading Comprehension (30 points)Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, b, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.AOne even ing after dinner,. Mr and Mrs Tisich called a family meeting. “ We’ve had to make a difficult decision, “ Mr Tisich announced. “You see, you mother has been offered a post as codirector of a television station in Chicago. Unfortunately, the station is not here. After thinking long and hard about it, we’ve concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”Marc looked shocked, while his sister Rached breathlessly started asking when they’d be moving. “It’s surprising, but exciting!” She said Marc simply said, “We can’t go --- I can’t leave all my friends. I’d rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons!”The Tisichs hoped that by the time they moved in August, Marc would grow more accustomed to the idea of leaving. However, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings.When the morning of the move arrived, Marc was nowhere to be found. His parents called Tommy Lyons’s house, But Mrs Lyons said she hadn’t seen Marc. Mrs Tisich became increasing concerned, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly.What they didn’t know was that Marc started walking over to Tommy’s house, with a faint idea of hiding in the Lyon’s attic(阁楼) for a few days. But something happened on the way as Marc walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood; the fence that he andhis mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together. How much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place? Marc didn’t take the time to answer that question but instead hurried to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartoons (纸板箱) the right size to hold his record collection.71. The conflict in this story was caused by _________.A.Marc and Rach’s different tempersB. a quarrel between Tommy Lyons and MarcC .Marc’s disagreement with his parents about their moveD.

Mr John Evans had never found the time or the money – to make the trip from his house near Swansea. But, when British Rail offered him an all-expenses-paid birthday trip to the capital , he just could not refuse.Until yesterday he had never been far from home, except for one trip to Aberdeen. Mr Evans, who spent 60 years working as a miner in South Wales , al most made the journey to London once before, at the turn of the century. “There was a trip to the White City but it was ten shillings(1 shilling =1/20 pound) return from Swansea –too much I thought. All my money went to the family then, “ he said.During the next two days Mr Evans will be taken on a whistle – stop tour of London to see the sights. Top of his list is a visit to the Houses of Parliament(国会).The only arrangement he does not care for is the wheelchair provided to move him about if he gets tired. “ I don’t like the chair business –people will so think I am getting old,” he said.His secret for a long and healthy life has been well publicized – no alcohol, no cigarette and no angry. Before setting off from Swansea with his 76-year-old son, Amwel , he quipped,“ I’m glad to see they’ve given me a return ticket. “78. It was reported that Mr Evans’s healthy long life was to a certain extent due to his _________.A.wine drinkingB. proper smokingC. mild temperD. sense of humor79. Which of the following statements is true?A. A single trip from Mr Evans’s house to the White City use d to be ten shillings.B.The first place for Mr Evans to visit is the Houses of Parliament.C.He appreciated people’s arrangement of a wheelchair during his visitD.Mr Evans once made the journey to London at the end of the century.80. The word “quip” in the last sentence most probably means________.A. to make a witty remarkB. to express a happy messageC. to make a wishD. to tell a joke81. What might be the best title for this passage?A. 110-year-old TouristB. Secret for Long and Healthy LifeC. Free Return TicketD. Sightseeing in LondonDWhen we walk through the city, we all experience a kind of information overload but we pay attention only to those that are important to us. we don’t stop, we keep our faces expressionless and eyes straight ahead, and in doing so, we are not just protecting ourselves but are avoiding overloading other people as well.We make use of stereotypes(刻板的模式) as convenient ways to make quick judgements about situations and people around us. They may not always be accurate, and they can often be dangerous wrong, but they are used regularly.The problem with the stereotypes is that they restrict experience. By using limited clues to provide us with a rapid opinion of other people or places we may choose to limit outcommunication. We may decide not to go to certain places because we believe they will not offer something we enjoy.In the city, styles of dress are particularly important with regard to self-presentation. Different groups often use clearly identifiable styles of clothes so that they can be easily recognized. It is becoming increasingly common for brand names to be placed on the outside of clothes , and this labeling makes it easy to send out information about fashion and price instantly, and lets others tell at a distance whether an individual has similar tastes and is a suitable person to associate with.In England, where social grouping or class continues to make social distinctions(区分), clothes hairstyles, people’s pronunciation and the number of speaking are all clues to our social group class distinction tend to be relatively fixed, although in the city where greater variety is permitted, they are more likely to be secondary determining factors of friendship and association.82. People walking in cities ignore the surroundings because _________.A. they do not wish to talk to other peopleB. everyone else is expressionlessC. the environment is already familiar to themD. there is too much information to take in83.According to the passage, the main disadvantage of using stereotypes is that they_________.A.are likely to lead us into dangerous situationB.may make us miss some pleasant experienceC.can rarely be relied onD. make us mentally lazy84. From the passage m\we may conclude that _____________.A.stereotypes can help to understand people fully.B.people are becoming more interested in fashionC.dressing can send messages about individualsD.stereotypes can do more harm than good to people85. It would appear that in England, a person’s class _______________.A.might be less important in making friends in a cityB.is mainly determined by his pronunciationC.plays less of a role than it did in the past.D.is something that can be changed easily2001年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试上海英语试题第二卷(共40分)I Translation (15 points)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1.我们的祖国从来没有像今天这样强大。

Mr. John Evans had never found the time or the money — to make the trip from his home near Swansea.But,when British Rail offered him an all-expenses-paid birthday trip to the capital,he just could not refuse.Until yesterday he had never been far from home,except for one trip to Aberdeen. Mr. Evans,who spent 60 years working as a miner in South Wales,almost made the journey to London once before,at the trun of the century.“There was a trip to the White City but it was ten shillings(1 shilling=1/20 pound)return from Swansea — too much I thought.All my money went to the family then,”he said.During the next two days Mr. Evans will be taken on a whistle-stop tour of London to see the sights.Top of his list is a visit to the Houses of Parliament(国会).The only arrangement he does not care for is the wheelchair provided to move him about if he gets tired.“I don’t like the chair business — people will so think I am getting old,”he said.中鸿智业信息技术有限公司 或His secret for a long and healthy life has been well publicized — no alcohol,no cigarette and no anger. Before setting off from Swansea with his 76-year-old son, Amwel, he quipped,“I’m glad to see they’ve given me a return ticket.”78.It was reported that Mr. Evans’s healthy long life was to a certain extent due to his______.A.wine drinkingB.proper smokingd temperD.sense of humor79.Which of the following statements is true?A.A single trip from Mr. Evans’s home to the White City used to be ten shillings.B.The first place for Mr. Evans to visit is the Houses of Parliament.C.He appreciated people’s arrangement of a wheelchair during his visit.D.Mr. Evans once made the journey to London at the turn of the century.80.The word“quip”in the last sentence most probably means______.A.to make a witty remarkB.to express a happy messageC.to make a wishD.to tell a joke81.What might be the best title for this passage?A.110-Year-Old TouristB.Secret for Long and Healthy Life中鸿智业信息技术有限公司 或 C.Free Return TicketD.Sightseeing in London4、(8分)When we walk through the city , we all experience a kind of information overload but we pay attention only to those that are important to us. We don’t stop , we keep our faces expressionless and eyes straight ahead , and in doing so, we are not just protecting ourselves but are avoiding overloading other people as well.We make use of stereotypes(刻板的模式)as convenient ways to make quick judgements about situations and people around us.They may not always be accurate,and they can often be dangerously wrong,but they are used regularly.The problem with the stereotypes is that they restrict experience.By using limited clues to provide us with a rapid opinion of other people or places we may choose to limit our communication.We may decide not to go to certain places because we believe they will not offer something we enjoy.In the city,styles of dress are particularly important with regard to self-presentation.Different groups often use clearly identifiable styles of clothes so that they can be easily recognized.It is becoming increasingly common for brand names to be placed on the outside of clothes,and this labeling makes it easy to send out information about fashion and price instantly,and lets others tell at a distance whether an individual has similar tastes and is a suitable person to associate with.In England,where social grouping or class continues to make social distinctions(区分),clothes, hairstyles, people’s pronunciation and the manner of speaking are all clues to our social group. Class distinctions tend to be relatively fixed,although in the city where greater variety is permitted,they are more likely to be secondary determining factors of friendship and association.82.People walking in cities ignore the surroundings because______.A.they do not wish to talk to other peopleB.everyone else is expressionless中鸿智业信息技术有限公司C.the environment is already familiar to themD.there is too much information to take in83.According to the passage, the main disadvantage of using stereotypes is that they______.A.are likely to lead us into dangerous situationsB.may make us miss some pleasant experienceC.can rarely be relied onD.make us mentally lazy84.From the passage we may conclude that______.A.stereotypes can help to understand people fullyB.people are becoming more interested in fashionC.dressing can send messages about individualsD.stereotypes can do more harm than good to people85.It would appear that in England,a person’s class______.A.might be less important in making friends in a cityB.is mainly determined by his pronunciationC.plays less of a role than it did in the pastD.is something that can be changed easily四、书面表达 ( 本大题共 1 题, 共计 15 分)1、(15分)Write an English composition in over 120 words,according to the topic given in Chinese.中鸿智业信息技术有限公司请你谈谈轿车大量进入家庭后,对家庭、环境和经济可能产生的影响。

( )(B)In the 13thcentury(世纪),the famous Italian traveller, Marco Polo,travelled a long way to China. During his stay is China, he saw many wonderful things. One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people did not use paper money until the 15th century. However, people in China began to use paper money in the 7thcentury.A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2,000 years ago. He made it from wood. He took the wood from trees and made it into paper. He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day! If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper. Every day, people throw away about 2,800 tons(吨)of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 48,000, trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now. If we don' t, we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper.So how can we save paper? We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper packets. We can also use cotton handkerchiefs. (手帕)and not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant does give us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. But we should do it now, before it is too late.Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案,用A,B,C或D表示,填入空格内):1.

When they were little children, they used to play together. They were good friends, though they sometimes fought over toys orquarreled(吵架)about what game they would play. As they grew older, they played together less. Emily preferred to be with girls, and George preferred to play with boys, When they were about fifteen years old, they almost stopped speaking to each other, not because they had disagreed with each other about anything, but just because they belonged to different groups. For one things, Emily was developing into a very good student, while George was more interested in sports. Emily had begun to study French, and she liked French so much that she began to write short plays in French. She also liked television programmes, and for some reason, she enjoyed watching football games yep/much. Her mother used to say, " Emily, I've never heard of a gift who likes football as much as you do. "Mrs Mason simply did not approve of (赞同) her daughter' s interest. Football, she felt, was for men and boys.While Emily was working on her French lessons or watching football games on TV, George was working for his father in his store after school. He liked selling things to people. Mr Peters found George so helpful that he thought about offering him a higher pay. When George Wash' t working at the store, he would like to be with a group o~ his boy friends who were organizing a sports team.In fact, it was football that brought Emily and George back together. When George was going home one afternoon, he looked in the window of Emily' s living - mom and he saw that she was watching a football game on TV. He walked up and knocked at the door. Emily was surprised to see him, but she asked him to come in and they watched the rest of the game together. At some time during the afternoon, George looked at Emily, and he noticed that she had become a very pretty young lady. Emily and George are good friends again. They still have different ideas about things sometimes, but they agree with each other that football is the world's best game.
