What you said was true. It was, _____, a little impolite.A、neverthelessB、otherwiseC、thusD、furthermorePart ⅣReading ComprehensionDirections：There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C),D), you should decide on the best choice and mark thecorresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:Testing has replaced teaching in most public schools. My own children‘s school week is focused on pretests, drills, tests, and retests. I believe that my daughter Erica, who gets excellent marks, has never read a chapter of any of her school textbooks all the way through. And teachers are often heard to state proudly and openly that they teach to the state test.Teaching to the test is a curious phenomenon. Instead of deciding what skills students ought to learn, helping students learn them, and then using some sensible methods of assessment (评估) to discover whether students have mastered the skills, teachers are encouraged to reverse the process. First one looks at a test. Then one draws the skills needed not to master, say, reading, but to do well on the test. Finally, the test skills are taught.The ability to read or write or calculate might imply the ability to do reasonably well on standard tests. However, neither reading nor writing develops simply through being taught to take tests. We must be careful to avoid mistaking preparation for a test of a skill with the acquisition of that skill. Too many discussions of basic skills make this fundamental confusion because people are test obsessed rather than concerned with the nature and quality of what is taught.Recently many schools have faced with what could be called the crisis of comprehension or, in simple terms, the phenomenon of students with grammar skills still being unable to understand what they read. These students are good at test taking, but they have little or no experience reading or thinking, and talking about what they read. They are taught to be so concerned with grade that they have no time or ease of mind to think about meaning, and reread things if necessary.61. What does the writer say about his daughter?A、She teaches in a middle school.B、She reads many good books.C、She does well on tests.D、She is proud of her way of learning.62. What are students encouraged to do nowadays at school?A、To master basic reading skills.B、To learn how to deal with tests.C、To read well in order to pass tests.D、To master all kinds of skills.63. Which of the following statements would the writer agree with the most?A、The nature and quality of subjects are more important than marks on them.B、Teachers should force students to learn to red and write and calculate well.C、Good preparation for standard tests is necessary for students.D、Most students are clear about how to acquire basic skills.64. What do students do when they are test obsessed?A、They pay attention only to tests.B、They hate tests very much.C、They try to avoid rereading things.D、They often join in discussion.65. What kind of students does the writer dislike most?A、Students with poor test marks and without creative thinking.B、Students active in thinking yet unable to talk about what they read.C、Students who are too well prepared for any test.D、Students unable to understand what they read.Passage TwoQuestions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:Eye contact is nonverbal (非语言的) technique that helps the speakers ―sell‖ their ideas to an audience. Besides its persuasive powers, eye contact helps hold l isteners‘ interest. A successful speaker must maintain eye contact with an audience. To have good relation with listeners, a speaker should maintain direct eye contact for at least 75 percent of the time. Some speakers focus only on their notes. Others loo k over the heads of their listeners. Both are likely to lose audience‘s interest and respect. People who maintain eye contact while speaking, whether from a podium or from across the table, are regarded not only as exceptionally friendly by their target but also as more believable and earnest.To show the power of eye contact in daily life, we have only to consider how passers-by behave when their glances happen to meet on the street. At one extreme are those people who feel obliged to smile when they make eye contact. At the other extreme are those who feel uncomfortable and immediately look away. To make eye contact, it seems, is to make a certain link with someone.Eye contact with an audience also lets a speaker know and monitor (观察) his listeners. It is, in fact, essential to analyze an audience during a speech. Visual feedback (视觉反馈) from the audience can indicate that a speech is boring, that the speaker is talking too much about a particular point, or that a particular point requires further explanation. As we have pointed out,visual feedback from listeners should play an important role in shaping a speech as it is delivered.66. What does the writer believe about a speaker‘s eye contact?A、It makes the speaker closer to his audience.B、It makes the audience lose the interest in his speechC、It makes the audience frightened of him.D、It makes listeners see the speaker more clearly.67. What does the word ―target‖ (Para.1) refer to?A、SpeakersB、ListenersC、FriendsD、Objects68. Why does the writer give the example of passers-by in Paragraph 2?A、To show that people are not comfortable with eye contact from strangers.B、To show that strangers can get to know each other easily through eye contact.C、To prove the point that people look more friendly with direct eye contact.D、To prove the point that eye contact plays a role in social communication.69. What does the writer imply about visual feedback in the last paragraph?A、It can make the speaker adjust his speech.B、It can make the speech more informative.C、It may discourage and stop the speaker.D、It may cause the speaker make less eye contact.70. What is the main point of the passage?A、Eye contact is a good way to attract the audience.B、It is necessary to maintain direct eye contact with the audience.C、Eye contact is important to a successful speech.D、A speaker‘s eye contact is more important than his notes.Passage ThreeQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:The whole industrial process, which makes many of the goods and machines we need and use in our daily lives, will unavoidably create a number of waste products which upset the environmental balance. Many of these waste products can be prevented or disposed of (处置) properly, but clearly while more and more new goods are produced and made complex, there will be new, dangerous wastes to be disposed of, for example, the waste products from nuclear power stations. Many people see pollution as only part of a large and more complex problem, that is, the whole process of industrial production and consumption of goods. Others see the problem mainly in connection with agriculture, where new methods are helping farmers grow more and more on their land to feed our ever-increasing population.Whatever reasons behind it, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, governments and people would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter (乱扔的废物) and waste. Food comes wrapped up threeor four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which cannot be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metals and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying and careless disposal of the products we use in our daily lives.71.What will happen if the industrial process continues according to the passage?A、Environmental balance will be achieved easily.B、Less land will be used for agriculture.C、New environmental problems will have to be dealt with.D、World population will be reduced.72. Why does the writer mention food and drinks in Paragraph 2?A、To show the problem of litter and waste.B、To show the problem of overproduction.C、To show how they are consumed.D、To show how they are wrapped.73. What does the writer say about advertising?A、It causes pollution directly.B、It wastes energy.C、It puts litter under control.D、It brings about waste.74. What is the writer‘s attitude towards the solution to environmental problems?A、DoubtfulB、ExcitedC、HopefulD、Disappointed75. Which of the following best describes the structure of the passage?A、Question and answer.B、Problem and solution.C、Situation and explanation.D、Statement and conclusion.Part ⅤTranslation from English into ChineseDirections:In this part there is a passage with 5 underlined sections, numbered 76 to 80. After reading the passage carefully, translate the underlined sections into Chinese. Remember to write your translation on the Translation Sheet.Twenty years ago, kids in scho ol had never even heard of the Internet. Now, I‘ll bet you can‘t find a single person in your school who hasn‘t at least heard of it. (76) In fact, many of us use it on a regular basis and even have access to it from our homes!The ―net‖ in Internet really stands for network. A network is two or more computers connected together so that information can beshared, or sent from one computer to another. The Internet is a vast resource for all types of information. (77) You may enjoy using it to do research for a school project, downloading your favorite songs or communicating with friends and family. Information is accessed through web pages that companies, organizations and individuals create and post. It‘s kind of like a giant bulletin board (布告牌) that the whole world uses! (78) But since anyone can put anything on the Internet, you also have to be careful and use your best judgment and a little common sense.Just because you read something on a piece of paper someone sticks on a bulletin board doesn‘t mean it‘s good information, or even correct, for that matter. So you have to be sure that whoever posted the information knows what they‘re talking about, especially if you‘re doing research! But what if you‘re just emailing people? You still have to be very care ful. (79) If you’ve never met the person that you’re communicating with online, you could be on dangerous ground! You should never give out any personal information to someone you don‘t know, not even your name! And just like you can‘t believe the information on every website out there, you can‘t rely on what strangers you ―meet‖ on the Internet tell you either. (80) Just like you could make up things about yourself to tell someone, someone else could do the same to you!76.In fact, many of us use it on a regular basis and even have access to it from our homes!77.You may enjoy using it to do research for a school project, downloading your favorite songs or communicating with friends and family.78.But since anyone can put anything on the Internet, you also have to be careful and use your best judgment and a little common sense.79.If you‘ve never met the person that you‘re communicating with online, you could be on dangerous ground!80.Just like you could make up things about yourself to tell someone, someone else could do the same to you!Part ⅥTranslation from Chinese into EnglishDirections:Translate t he following sentences into English. Remember to write your translation on the Translation Sheet.81. 如果你们能够提供令人满意的售后服务，你们的产品一定会有一个广阔的市场。

That explanation appeals to common sense and has dominated efforts to get to the root of the obesity epidemic and reverse it. Yet obesity researchers are increasingly dissatisfied with it. Many now believe that something else must have changed in our environment to precipitate(促成) such dramatic rises in obesity over the past 40 years or so. Nobody is saying that the “big two” – reduced physical activity and increased availability of food –are not important contributors to the epidemic, but they cannot explain it all.Earlier this year a review paper by 20obesity experts set out the 7 most plausible alternative explanations for the epidemic. Here they are.1.Not enough sleepIt is widely believed that sleep is for the brain, not the body. Could a shortage of shut-eye also be helping to make us fat?Several large-scale studies suggest there may be a link. People who sleep less than 7 hours a night tend to have a higher body mass index than people who sleep more, according to data gathered by the US National Health and Nutrition Ex amination Survey. Similarly, the US Nurses’Health Study, which tracked 68,000 women for 16 years, found that those who slept an average of 5 hours a night gained more weight during the study period than women who slept 6 hours, who in turn gained more than whose who slept 7.It’s well known that obesity impairs sleep, so perhaps people get fat first and sleep less afterwards. But the nurses’ study suggests that it can work in the other direction too: sleep loss may precipitate weight gain.Although getting figures is difficult, it appears that we really are sleeping less. In 1960 people in the US slept an average of 8.5 hours per night. A 2002 poll by the National Sleep Foundation suggests that the average has fallen to under 7 hours, and the decline is mirrored by the increase in obesity.2.Climate controlWe humans, like all warm-blooded animals, can keep our core body temperatures pretty much constant regardless of what’s going on in the world around us. We do this by altering our metabolic(新陈代谢的) rate, shivering or sweating. Keeping warm and staying cool take energy unless we are in the “thermo-neutral zone”, which is increasingly where we choose to live and work.There is no denying that ambient temperatures(环境温度) have changed in the past few decades. Between 1970 and 2000, the average British home warmed from a chilly 13C to 18C. In the US, the changes have been at the other end of the thermometer as the proportion of homes with air conditioning rose from 23% to 47% between 1978 and 1997. In the southern states – where obesity rates tend to be highest –the number of houses with air conditioning has shot up to 71% from 37% in 1978.Could air conditioning in summer and heating in winter really make a difference to our weight?Sadly，there is some evidence that it does-at least with regard to heating.Studies show that in comfortable temperatures we use less energy.3.Less smokingBad news: smokers really do tend to be thinner than the rest of us, and quitting really does pack on the pounds, though no one is sure why. It probably has something to do with the fact that nicotine is an appetite suppressant and appears to up your metabolic rate.Katherine Flegal and colleagues at the US National Center for Health Statistics in Hyattsville, Maryland, have calculated that people kicking the habit have been responsible for a small but significant portion of the US epidemic of fatness. From data collected around 1991 by the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, they worked out that people who had quit in the previous decade were much more likely to be overweight than smokers and people who had never smoked .Among men, for example, nearly half of quitters were overweight compared with 37% of non-smokers and only 28%of smokers.4.Genetic effectsYours chances of becoming fat may be set, at least in part, before you were even born. Children of obese mothers are much more likely to become obese themselves later in life. Offspring of mice fed a high-fat diet during pregnancy are much more likely to become fat than the offspring of identical mice fed a normal diet. Intriguingly, the effect persists for two or three generations. Grandchildren of mice fed a high-fat diet grow up fat even if their own mother is fed normally-so you fate may have been sealed even before you were conceived.5.A little older…Some groups of people just happen to be fatter than others. Surveys carried out by the US national center for health statistics found that adults aged 40 to 79 were around three times as likely to be obese as younger people. Non-white females also tend to fall at the fatter end of the spectrum: Mexican-American women are 30% more likely than white women to be obsess, and black women have twice the risk.In the US, these groups account for an increasing percentage of the population. Between 1970 and 2000 the US population aged 35 to 44 grew by43%.the proportion of Hispanic-Americans also grew, from under 5% to 12.5% of the population, while the proportion of black Americans increased from 11%to12.3%.these changes may account in part for the increased prevalence of obesity.6.Mature mumsMothers around the world are getting older. in the UK, the mean age for having a first child is 27.3,compared with 23.7 in 1970 .mean age at first birth in the US has also increased, rising from 21.4 in 1970 to 24.9 in 2000.This would be neither here nor there if it weren’t for the observation that having an older mother seems to be an independent risk factor for obesity. Results from the US national heart, lung and blood institute’s study found that the odds of a child being obese increase 14% for every five extra years of their mother’s age, though why this should be so is not entirely clear.Michael Symonds at the University of Nottingham, UK, found that first-born children have more fat than younger ones. As family size decreases, firstborns account for a greater share of the population. In 1964, British women gave birth to an average of 2.95 children; by 2005 that figure had fallen to 1.79. In the US in1976, 9.6% of woman in their 40s had only one child; in 2004 it was 17.4%. this combination of older mothers and more single children could be contributing to the obesity epidemic.7.Like marrying likeJust as people pair off according to looks, so they do for size. Lean people are more likely to marry lean and fat more likely to marry fat. On its own, like marrying like cannot account for any increase in obesity. But combined with others—particularly the fact that obesity is partly genetic, and that heavier people have more children—it amplifies the increase form other causes.1.

Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Please write your answers on Answer sheet 2.Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.One of the major producers of athletic footwear, with 2002 sales of over $10 billion, is a company called Nike, with corporate headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. Forbes magazine identified Nike’s president, Philip Knight, as the 53rd-richestman in the world in 2004. But Nike has not always been a large multimillion-dollar organization. In fact, Knight started the company by selling shoes from the back of his car at track meets.In the late1950s Philip Knight was a middle-distance runner on the University of Oregon track team, coached by Bill Bowerman. One of the top track coaches in the U.S., Bowerman was also known for experimenting with the design of running shoes in an attempt to make them lighter and more shock-absorbent. After attending Oregon, Knight moved on to do graduate work at Stanford University; his MBA thesis was on marketing athletic shoes. Once he received his degree, Knight traveled to Japan to contact the Onitsuka Tiger Company, a manufacturer of athletic shoes. Knight convinced the company’s officials of the potential for its product in the U.S. In 1963 he received his first shipment of Tiger shoes, 200 pairs in total.In 1964, Knight and Bowerman contributed $500 each to from Blue Ribbon Sports, the predecessor of Nike. In the first few years, Knight distributed shoes out of his car at local track meets. The first employees hired by Knight wereformer college athle tes. The company did not have the money to hire “experts”, and there was no established athletic footwear industry in North America from which to recruit those knowledgeable in the field. In its early years the organization operated in an unconventional manner that characterized its innovative and entrepreneurial approach to the industry. Communication was informal; people discussed ideas and issues in the hallways, on a run, or over a beer. There was little task differentiation. There were no job descriptions, rigid reporting systems, or detailed rules and regulations. The team spirit and shared values of the athletes on Bowerman’s teams carried over and provided the basis for the collegial style of management that characterized the early years of Nikes.47. While serving as a track coach, Bowerman tried to design running shoes that were _____________________.48. During his visit to Japan, Knight convinced the officials of the Onitsuka Tiger Company that its product would have____________________________________.49. Blue Ribbon Sports as unable to hire experts due to the absence of____________________ in North America.50. In the early years of Nike, communication within the company was usually carried out____________.51. What qualities of Bowerman’s tea ms formed the basis of Nike’s early management style?_______________________________________________________________. Section BDirections:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage OneQuestions 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.Sustainable development is applied to just about everything from energy to clean water and economic growth, and as a result it has become difficult to question either the basic assumptions behind it or the way the concept is put touse. This is especially true in agriculture, where sustainable development is often taken as the sole measure of progress without a proper appreciation of historical and cultural perspectives.To start with, it is important to remember that the nature of agriculture has changed markedly throughout history, and will continue to do so .medieval agriculture in northern Europe fed, clothed and sheltered a predominantly rural society with a much lower population density than it is today. It had minimal effect on biodiversity, and any pollution it caused was typically localized. In terms of energy use and the nutrients（营养成分）captured in the product it was relatively inefficient.Contrast this with farming since the start of the industrial revolution. Competition from overseas led farmers to specialize and increase yields. Throughout this period food became cheaper, safe and more reliable. However, these changes have also led to habitat（栖息地）loss and to diminishing biodiversity.What’s more, demand for animal products in developing countries is growing so fast that meeting it will require an extra 300 million tons of grain a year by 2050.yet the growth of cities and industry is reducing the amount of water available for agriculture in many regions.All this means that agriculture in the 21stcentury will have to be very different from how it was in the 20th.thiswill require radical thinking. For example, we need to move away from the idea that traditional practices are inevitably more sustainable than new ones. We also need to abandon the notion that agriculture can be “zero impact”. The key will be to abandon the rather simple and static measures of sustainability, which centre on the need to maintain production without increasing damage.Instead we need a more dynamic interpretation, one that looks at the pros and cons（正反两方面）of all the various way land is used. There are many different ways to measure agricultural performance besides food yield: energy use, environmental costs, water purity, carbon footprint and biodiversity. It is clear, for example, that the carbon of transporting tomatoes from Spain to the UK is less than that of producing them in the UK with additional heating and lighting. But we do not know whether lower carbon footprints will always be better forbiodiversity.What is crucial is recognizing that sustainable agriculture is not just about sustainable food production.52. How do people often measure progress in agriculture?A) By its productivity C) By its impact on the environmentB) By its sustainability D) By its contribution to economic growth53. Specialisation and the effort to increase yields have resulted in________.A) Localised pollution C) competition from overseasB) the shrinking of farmland D) the decrease of biodiversity54. What does the author think of traditional farming practices?A) They have remained the same over the centuriesB) They have not kept pace with population growthC) They are not necessarily sustainableD) They are environmentally friendly55. What will agriculture be like in the 21st centuryA) It will go through radical changesB) It will supply more animal productsC) It will abandon traditional farming practicesD) It will cause zero damage to the environment56 What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A) To remind people of the need of sustainable developmentB) To suggest ways of ensuring sustainable food productionC) To advance new criteria for measuring farming progressD) To urge people to rethink what sustainable agriculture isPassage TwoQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.The percentage of immigrants (including those unlawfully present) in the United states has been creeping upward for years. At 12.6 percent, it is now higher than at any point since the mid1920s.We are not about to go back to the days when Congress openly worried about inferior races polluting America’s bloodstream. But once again we are wondering whether we have too many of the wrong sort newcomers. Their loudest critics argue that the new wave of immigrants cannot, and indeed do not want to,fit in as previous generations did.We now know that these racist views were wrong. In time, Italians, Romanians and members of other so-called inferior races became exemplary Americans and contributed greatly, in ways too numerous to detail, to the building of this magnificent nation. There is no reason why these new immigrants should not have the same success.Although children of Mexican immigrants do better, in terms of educational and professional attainment, than their parents UCLA sociologist Edward Telles has found that the gains don’t continue. Indeed, the fouth generation is marginally worse off than the third James Jackson, of the University of Michigan, has found a similar trend among black Caribbean immigrants, Tells fears that Mexican-Americans may be fated to follow in the footsteps of American blacks-that large parts of the community may become mired（陷入）in a seemingly permanent state of poverty and Underachievement. Like African-Americans, Mexican-Americans are increasingly relegated to (降入)segregated, substandard schools, and their dropout rate is the highest for any ethnic group in the country.We have learned much about the foolish idea of excluding people on the presumption of the ethnic/racial inferiority. But what we have not yet learned is how to make the process of Americanization work for all. I am not talking about requiring people to learn English or to adopt American ways; those things happen pretty much on their own, but as arguments about immigration hear up the campaign trail, we also ought to ask some broader question about assimilation, about how to ensure that people , once outsider s , don’t fo rever remain marginalized within these shores.That is a much larger question than what should happen with undocumented workers, or how best to secure the border, and it is one that affects not only newcomers but groups that have been here for generations. It will have more impact on our future than where we decide to set the admissions bar for the latest ware of would-be Americans. And it would be nice if we finally got the answer right.57. How were immigrants viewed by U.S. Congress in early days?A) They were of inferior races.B) They were a Source of political corruption.C) They were a threat to the nation’s security.D) They were part of the nation’s bloodstream.58. What does the author think of the new immigrants?A) They will be a dynamic work force in the U.S.B) They can do just as well as their predecessors.C) They will be very disappointed on the new land.D) They may find it hard to fit into the mainstream.59. What does Edward Telles’ research say about Mexican-Americans?A) They may slowly improve from generation to generation.B) They will do better in terms of educational attainment.C) They will melt into the African-American community.D) They may forever remain poor and underachieving.60. What should be done to help the new immigrants?A) Rid them of their inferiority complex.B) Urge them to adopt American customs.C) Prevent them from being marginalized.D) Teach them standard American English.61. According to the author, the burning issue concerning immigration is_______.A) How to deal with people entering the U.S. without documentsB) How to help immigrants to better fit into American societyC) How to stop illegal immigrants from crossing the borderD) How to limit the number of immigrants to enter the U.S.Part V Cloze （15 minutes）Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Each part in a new car is as weak as a baby. So a new car requires proper care and servicing. If you're unfamiliar with the parts, you have to read through the owner's instructions carefully.First of all, the brakes (刹车) of your car are important for safety (案例) reasons. Having them checked regularly can reduce the risks of accidents. Another important thing to consider is engine care. Always remember that the life and performance of your car engine depend on the engine oil. Replace the engine oil when recommended. If you feel the engine is very hot especially during summer it is probably because the coolingsystem doesn't work well. You'd better get the cooling system serviced before the start of summer.In a word, timely and proper servicing is an important task for car owners. Good servicing can not only extend the life of your newborn baby, but also ensure your safety, and the safety of those who share the road with you. 1小题>To get familiar with the parts of a new car, the owner should ______.A regard the car as a new-born babyB have the car serviced before driving itC read through the instructions carefullyD examine all of the parts of the new car2小题>The brakes should be checked regularly ______.A to avoid accidentsB to raise speedC to reduce costD to save gas3小题>For a car engine to work long and well, the owner should ______.A replace the engine oil as recommendedB reduce the use of the car in summerC clean the engine parts regularlyD change the brakes frequently4小题>It is recommended to have the cooling system checked when ______.A you buy a new carB summer is comingC the engine oil is replacedD the brakes are out of order5小题>The last paragraph tells us that the purpose of carefully servicing a car is ______.A to let you sell your car at a good priceB to extend its life and ensure safetyC to reduce the cost of car servicingD to make the car run faster第25题：Reading Comprehension:General PoliciesOnce the flight ticket has been issued, the name on the ticket cannot be changed.Ticket is non-refundable (不能退款的)Please review your itinerary (行程安排) immediately.

For each question, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice, then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.The warden led us in single file along a narrow line of paving-slabs that ran past the huts. Every so often, four steps led to a front door. We could hear people inside, shouting at children.'The overcrowding has to be seen to be believed,' he said as he shook his head forlornly. We squeezed to one side as a sullen woman passed us, carrying a bucket of coal. She had the look of someone who was old before her time.The warden went up the last set of steps, opened the door with a jangling bunch of keys, took one off the ring and handed it to me.'There you are. Home Sweet Home. There's a bath in that hut by the trees; get the key from me when you want one, ' he said, and he came clown the steps, leaving us room to go up. 'I hope you can make a go of it, ' he said. 'At least we've got you a bit of furniture.'We walked into a square 'cell' with a table and two chairs and a two-seater settee. No two of anything were the same; it all looked like furniture from a charity shop, which I suppose it was. There was a double hotplate on top of a low cupboard, and a dead black stove against the back wall with a scuttle beside it containing a few lumps of fuel. The adjoining 'cell' had a double bed with a pink plastic mattress cover, glistening like wet salmon. There was a cupboard that hung open because the door catch had gone. Inside the cupboard were two meagre blankets.The bedroom was freezing. I struggled to shut the top flap of the window, but it was jammed open by rust. There were bits of yellowing sellotape all round the wall near it, where previous inmates had tried to block the draught with cardboard.I sat on the bed with my head in my hands, wondering how long we would have to spend here before we found a real home, and noticing, as I glanced sideways into the front room, that a thin film of dust was blowing under the front door.We took the plastic cover off the mattress because it looked worse than the stains underneath. The blankets smelled, but we had to keep warm somehow.We had been in this place exactly a week when, on returning in the evening, we went up to our front door and heard children's voices and a transistor radio. We peered round the door at a jumble of people and things and colours. The people turned round and we all looked at each other. The muddle resolved itself into a huge woman and a little man, and two small children. They had a lot of stuff, mostly carrier bags and laundry bags with clothes spilling out, and a couple of buckets full of kitchen equipment which we'd have been glad to have ourselves.They didn't want to share with us any more than we did with them, but that's what the warden had told them to do. We argued about it, though it seemed ridiculous to quarrel over accommodation which none of us really wanted anyway.QUESTIONS:SSS_SINGLE_SEL17.The warden seems to think that the couple's accommodation is ______.A cosyB unpleasantC spacious enoughD well furnishedSSS_SINGLE_SEL18.The main thing the author notices about the furniture is that ______.A it looks or smells dirtyB most of it is in poor conditionC it is very cheapD nothing matches anything elseSSS_SINGLE_SEL19.The main reason the author feels cold in the bedroom is that ______.A there isn't enough fuel for the stoveB the window lets in a lot of draughtC there aren't enough blanketsD the door lets in a lot of draughtSSS_SINGLE_SEL20.What was the writer's feeling when he/she had looked around the accommodation?A Despair.B Contentment.C Anger.D Fear.SSS_SINGLE_SEL21.The four other people are in the accommodation because ______.A they find it **fortableB they have been told to share their kitchen, equipmentC they have been told to share the accommodationD a week is up and it is their turn to live thereSection BThere is one passage in this section with 10 questions. Read the passage quickly and answer the questions on the Answer Sheet.[1] The rich keep getting richer. According to the latest Forbes ranking of the world's richest people, there are now a record 946 billionaires around the world. They have made their money from everything from **s to steel to Chinese food.[2] For the 13th year in a row, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is the richest person in the world. His personal fortune rose $ 6bn last year to $ 56bn (￡ 29bn). His friend, the investment expert Warren Buffett, was the second richest. His fortune increased by$ 10bn during the year to reach $ 52bn. Both Mr. Gates and Mr.Buffett give a percentage of their fortunes to charity. Third richest is the Mexican **s entrepreneur Carlos Slim Helu, who added $19bn to his wealth, and now has $49bn.[3] The total wealth of all the people on the list grew by 35% during the year to $ 3.5 trillion as a result of rising property prices, commodities and stock markets. Luisa Kroll, who helped to compile the list at Forbes, said it was an extraordinary year'. On the previous list, there were just 793 billionaires.[4] The richest Briton on the list is the Duke of Westminster, Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor, at number 55. Grosvenor inherited much of his wealth and is one of the UK's Wealthiest landowners. He is said to be worth $11 bn. Sir Philip Green, the retail entrepreneur who controls British Home Stores and Topshop owner Arcadia is the second richest Briton at number 104 on the list. Sir Philip, 55, has $ 7bn. Next are the property tycoons David and Simon Rueben, who are worth $4.5bn between them and are number 177 on the list.[5] There are 29 British citizens on the list. Virgin founderSir Richard Branson is number 230 with $3.8bn; David Sainsbury of the grocery family is 432nd with $2.2bn; newspaper owner Viscount Rothermere, Jonathan Harmsworth, is number 618 with $1.6bn and James Dyson also has $1.6bn. Harry Potter author JK Rowling is right at the bottom of the list with a fortune valued at $1 bn. There are two others who have made their money from a very different type of publishing ; Richard Desmond the former soft porn publisher, who now owns the Daily Express, is 754th on the list with $1.3bn in the bank and Paul Raymond, who owns Escort, Mayfair and Razzle magazines, is also worth $1 bn.[6] The list shows growing wealth in both China and India, the two dynamic economies driving global economic growth. Another 14 people from India joined the fist. With a total of 36 billionaires, India has now overtaken Japan, which has 24, as home to the mostbillionaires in Asia. There are three Indians in the top 20, led by Lakshmi Mittal, an Indian citizen who lives in London and who is number five on the list with $ 32bn.[7] There were 13 Chinese newcomers including Li Wei, the founder of Synear Food Hold ing. **pany is one of China's largest producers of frozen food and is an official supplier to the Beijing Olympics in 2008.[8] The US still has 44% of the world billionaires but its share is getting smaller, Russia is also rising fast and has 53billionaires according to Forbes. The Wal-Mart family dropped from the top 20, after a difficult year for the world's largest retailer.[9] The average billionaire is 62 years old and 60% of the people on the list made their money from scratch. Around 100 unmarried men are included among the world's wealthiest. At the top of the list of bachelors are Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin—unmarried at 33 and 34 respectively, they are both worth$16.6bn and are number 26 in the overall list. Other interesting bachelors are Russian metals tycoon Mikhail Prokhorov, in 38th place with an estimated fortune of $13.5bn; and divorced James Packer, who has a more modest $5.5bn media fortune.[10] One of the more interesting rich people on the list is the accordion-playing, fire-breathing founder of Cirque du Soleil, Guy Laliberte, at number 664 on the list. The 47-year-old Canadian founded his circus-based, animal-free acrobatic show in t984 andstill keeps 95% of the business. His fortune is estimated at $1.5bn. The richest woman, at number 12, is 84-year-old L'Oreal heiress Liliane Bettencourt, with a fortune of $ 20.7bn. Chat show queen Oprah Winfrey is believed to be worth $1.5bn.QUESTIONS 51-55:For answers 51-55, markY(for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.SSS_FILL22.Rising property prices were the only reason for the 35% increase in the total wealth of the people on the list.SSS_FILL23.Sir Philip Green lived a hard life when he was young and later became a publisher through his own hard work.SSS_FILL24.The percentage of US billionaires in the list is falling.SSS_FILL25.The founders of Google are married.SSS_FILL26.Guy Laliberte has sold most of his Cirque du Soleil business.QUESTIONS 56-60:For answers 56-60, look in the text and find these words or expressions.

Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.Five Reasons to Skip CollegeNEW YORK—College is expensive. Four years at an eliteuniversity like Princeton or Harvard will set you back around$160,000.That's a lot of money, but consider the benefits: the professors, the coursework, the people you'll meet and the invaluable experiences you'll have. And, of course, the bottom line: you'll earn more money afterward. In fact, on average, the holder of a four-year college degree will earn 62% more over their lifetime than a typical high-school graduate. And that's just on average. The return on investment for attending one of the nation's 25 or so most selective colleges is far more impressive. Money well spent, right?Well, not necessarily.Although there is clearly a correlation between earnings and a four-year degree, a correlation isn't the same thing as a cause. Economists like Robert Reischauer ruffled feathers several years ago by pointing out that talented, driven kids are more likely to go to college in the first place and they succeed, in other words, because of their innate abilities, not because of their formal education.Bill Gates, who dropped out of Harvard to start Microsoft, certainly doesn't fit the stereotype of a low paid college dropout.In fact, more than a couple of billionaires never graduated from college. Lance Ellison, cofounder of database giant Oracle, dropped out of the University of Illinois and is now worth $ 16 billion. Fellow billionaire John Simplot, inventor of the frozen French fry, never even finished high school. Neither did Alan Gen'y, who built the first cable television network in upstate New York and then sold it to Time Warner Cable for $ 2.8 billion.In fact, there is plenty of evidence that what really matters ishow smart you are, not where—or even if—you went to school. According to a number of studies, small differences in SAT scores, which you take before going to college, correlate with measurably higher incomes. And, according to a report from the National Bureau of Economic Research, the lifetime income of high-school dropouts is directly associated with their scores on a battery of intelligence tests.By this logic, the real economic value in a Princeton degree is not the vaunted Princeton education, but in signaling potential employers that you are smart enough to get into Princeton. Actually, attending the classes is irrelevant. A few years back, we even went so far as to speculate that an entrepreneur could build a healthy businesses by charging, say $16,000, to certify qualified high-school graduates as Ivy League material. College-skippers could invest the $144,000 savings and have a nice nest-egg built up by the time they are in their mid-30s. And they could use their formative years between 18 and 22 to learn an actual trade.For, in truth, most professions, journalism, software engineering, sales, and trading stocks, to name but a few, depend far more on 'on-the-job' education than on-classroom learning. Until relatively recently, lawyers, architects and pharmacists learnedtheir trade through apprenticeship, not through higher education.Certainly some jobs, like medical doctors and university professors, require formal education. But many do not, and between the Internet and an excellent public library system, most Americans can learn pretty much anything for a nominal fee. By all means, go to college if you want the 'university experience,' but don't spend all that cash just on the assumption that it will lead you to a higher paying job.QUESTIONS:SSS_TEXT_QUSTI32.The first reason to skip college is that college is ______ and the second reason is that college does not necessarily ______ in a higher income.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI33.______ rather than formal college education correlates with higher incomes.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI34.Most professions are learned through ______ instead of classroom learning.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI35.Most people can learn almost anything from the ______ and anexcellent public library system for a small amount of money.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI36.College offers the 'university experience' but does not necessarily lead to ______.Section DIn this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully **plete the summary below by choosing no more than three words from the passage. Remember to write theanswers on the Answer Sheet.The deathwatch beetle is thought of as the devil's pest in churches and old houses, but in natural habitats it infests a wide range of decaying hardwoods. It has been found in hornbeam, sweet chestnut, hawthorn, beech, ash, blackpoplar, elm, larch, spruce and yew, but the two **monly infested species in Britain are oak and willow. In buildings, oak timbers are usually the focus of attack by the beetle, but alder, walnut, elm, larch and Scots pine can be affected too. Deathwatch beetles attack wood that has been decayed by fungi, so it is the damp-prone parts of timbers, at the ends and near leaking gutters and enclosed spaces that are normally attacked first.Adult beetles emerge from holes in the timber in spring, or occasionally in autumn. They breed once and a week or two later the females lay eggs, usually about fifty, in small cracks on the surface of the wood. Adults depend on stored reserves; they do not feed, so the adult lifespan is largely determined by body size and metabolic demands. Emergent females rarely live for more than ten weeks, and males eight or nine weeks, at a temperature of about 20%.The eggs hatch after two to five weeks and the larvae thenwander across the wood to find suitable entry points through which to bore into the timber. Then they take between two and ten weeks to complete their development. The larvae pupate in late summer to early autumn, each individual having constructed a pupal cell just below the surface of the wood. After two or three weeks, the immature beetle emerges from the pupal skin, but then remains torpid inside the chamber until the following spring or early summer. The mature beetle then cuts a perfectly round hole, three to five millimetres in diameter, and emerges covered in a fine layer of wood powder.SUMMARY :The deathwatch beetle is found most often in (66) trees in Britain. They infest damp-prone timber which has beenaffected (67) . Adults do not feed, so they surviveon (68) and live for only two or three months. The larvae, on the other hand, live for up to (69) . They pupate in late summer to autumn, but the adult does not emerge until (70) or early summer.SSS_FILL37.SSS_FILL38.SSS_FILL39.SSS_FILL40.SSS_FILL41.Part Ⅳ ClozeSection AThere are 5 blanks in the passage.

Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.Mighty FlightyA fly can do one thing extremely well: fly. (86) Recently a team of British scientists declared that **mon housefly is the most talented aerodynamicist on the planet, superior to any bird, bat, or bee. A housefly can make six turns a second; hover; fly straight up, down, or backward; do somersaults; land on the ceiling; and perform various other show-off maneuvers. And it has a brain smaller than a sesame seed.Michael Dickinson, who studies fly flight in his lib at Cahech, says the housefly isn't actually the best flier. 'Hoverflies are the be-all and end-all,' he says. (87) They can hover in one spot, hurtle through the air to another location, and then race back to their original hovering point precisely.Scientists, engineers, and military researchers want to know how creatures with such small brains can do that. Maybe they could reverse-engineer a fly to make a robotic device that could reconnoiter dangerous places, such as earthquake zones or collapsed mines.Dickinson's laboratory works with fruit flies. Researchers putthem in chambers and manipulate the visual field, filming the fliesin super-slow motion, 6,000 frames a second. Dickinson is interestedin knowing how flies avoid collisions. He has found that certain patterns, such as 90-degree turns, are triggered by visual cues and two equilibrium organs on their backs that function like a gyroseope.Flies have only a dozen muscles for maneuvering, but they're loaded with sensors. In addition to **pound eyes, which permit panoramic imagery and are excellent at detecting motion, they have wind-sensitive hairs and antennae. They also have three light sensors, called ocelli, on the tops of their heads, which tell them which way is up. Roughly two-thirds of a fly's entire nervous systemis devoted to processing visual images. They take all this sensory data and boil it clown to a few **mands, such as 'go left' and 'go right.'(88) Imagine if you didn't utter an opinion until you had read hundreds of books, magazines, newspaper articles, and blogs, and then issued a statement based on a few basic notions. That's how a fly approaches flying. Only the fly is a speed reader. The information processing takes a fraction of a second. Researcher Rafal Zbikowskiof Cranfield University in Shrivenham, England, calls this mode of operation a 'sensor-rich feedback control paradigm.'(89) Given that flies have evolved for hundreds of millions of years (and that they were the first animals to take to the air), we shouldn't be surprised that they're such good fliers. 'They justdon't have brains like ours. Studying flies,' says Dickinson, 'islike traveling to another planet.'SSS_TEXT_QUSTI57.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI58.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI59.SSS_TEXT_QUSTI60.Part Ⅵ IQ TestThere are 5 IQ Test questions in this part.
