Unlike most of the Netherlands, Hilversum is actually in a hilly area with the soil mostly consisting of sand. Once called the Garden of Amsterdam, it still attracts travelers to come over to cycle and walk through the surrounding forests. They visit it for a relaxing day off from the urban madness. For Dutch people, Hilversum is all about tex tile(纺织) and media industries, and modern architecture.In history, Hilversum was largely an agricultural area. Daily life was marked by farming, sheep raising and wool production. A railway link to Amsterdam in 1874 attracted rich traders from Amsterdam to Hilversum. They build themselves largevillas(别墅) in the wooded surroundings of the town. One of the families moving in was the Brenninkmeijers, currently the wealthiest family of the Netherlands. They moved in after big success in the textile industry and aided a substantial textile industry in Hilversum. But the textile boom lasted only several decades. The last factory closedin the 1960s.The change to a media economy started in 1920, when the Nederlandse Seintoestedllen Fabriek(NSF) established a radio factory in Hilversum. Most radio stations called in the large villas in the leafy areas of the town. Television gave another push to the local economy. Hilversum became the media capital of the Netherlands, and Dutch television stars moved into the leafy neighborhoods surrounding the town.In the early 1900s, modern architects W.M. Dudo k and J. Duiker placed hundreds of remarkable buildings in Hilversum. These modern architectural masterpieces(杰作) are so many that Hilversum almost feels like an open air museum. Dudok alone shaped most 20th century Hilversum and approximately 75 buildings in 1928~1931. It has wide international fame and is included in many architecture textbooks. The building has a rem arkable shape and looks like a combination of “blocks”. Actually, one may start his journey of modern architecture by walking or biking the W.M. Dudok Architectural Route in Hilversum.36. Hilversum is different from most of the Netherlands in that ________.A. it has a large populationB. it is cut off fr om big citiesC. it has many beautiful gardensD. it is in a hilly area with sandy soil37. What was the greatest contribution of the Brenninkmeijers to Hilversum?A. Building a railway link to Amsterdam.B. Helping its textile industry to develop.C. Constructing large villas for the poor.D. Assisting its agricultural industry.38. The beginning of the media industry in Hilversum was marked by the establishment of ________.A. a radio factoryB. the medial capitalC. a radio stationD. a TV station39. What is known about W.M. Dudok's Hilversum Town Hall?A. It consists of approximately 75 buildings.B. It looks like an open air museum in the city.C. It is a classic example in architecture textbooks.D. It has shaped most of 20th century Hilversum.B(*)The production of coffee beans is a huge, profitable business, but, unfortunately, full-sun production is taking over the industry and bringing about a lot of damage. The change in how coffee is grown from shade-grown production to full-sun production endangers the very existence of certain animals and birds, and even disturbs the world's ecological balance.On a local level, the damage of the forest required by full-sun fields affects the area's birds and animals. The shade of the forest trees provides a home for birds and other species(物种) that depend on the trees' flowers and fruits. Full-sun coffee growers destroy this forest home. As a result, many species are quickly dying out.On a more global level, the destruction of the rainforest for full-sun coffee fields also threatens(威胁)human life. Medical research often makes use of theforests' plant and animal life, and the destruction of such species could prevent researchers from finding cures for certain diseases. In addition, new coffee-growing techniques are poisoning the water locally, and eventually the world's groundwater.Both locally and globally, the continued spread of full-sun coffee plantations(种植园)could mean the destruction of the rainforest ecology. The loss of shade trees is already causing a slight change in the world's climate, and studies show that loss of oxygen-giving trees also leads to air pollution and global warming. Moreover, the new growing techniques are contributing to acidic(酸性的) soil conditions.It is obvious that the way much coffee is grown affects many aspects of life, from the local environment to the global ecology. But consumers do have a choice. They can purchase shade-grown coffee whenever possible, although at a higher cost. The future health of the planet and mankind is surely worth more than an inexpensive cup of coffee.40. What can we learn about full-sun coffee production from Paragraph 4?A. It limits the spread of new growing techniques.B. It leads to air pollution and global warming.C. It slows down the loss of shade trees.D. It improves local soil conditions.41. The purpose of the text is to ________.A. entertainB. advertiseC. instructD. persuade42. Where does this text probably come from?A. An agricultural magazine.B. A medical journal.C. An engineering textbook.D. A tourist guide.43. Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?四、根据所给提示翻译下列句子44. 是做这份工作的能力而不是你是谁才是重要的。

Most say their achievement is the result of hard work and intense practice. Usually athletes say how hard it is to win the big games. At the opposite end of the spectrum, however, is the fact that losing the big game, or, in my case, all the games, can be even tougher.From the spectators' point of view, last year's basketball season for my high school team was an embarrassment. And while 0 and 20 is certainly nothing to be proud of, that season had a bigger impact on me than any other, and probably more than any season since.As a team captain, I knew it probably wouldn't be the easiest year, but did I ever think we would lose every game? Of course not. Since six of our top players had graduated, it was clear that we were a young team who would struggle. The struggle began earlier than expected, though, as our team's starting center was suspended for the season, and two key members decided to quit after two weeks. At some point, quitting probably passed through every player's mind, but, in the end, we all stuck it out, vowing to work even harder.Then there came a time when even our own coach had given up on us. Personally,I felt like it was no longer worth giving my all. I thought, if even the coach didn't believe in us, why should I? But just as my hope began to fade, a teammate called a meeting. He said, “Nobody thinks we're going to win, but, as teammates and friends, we_owe_it_to_each_other_to_give_it_our_all_every_game.”Sure, it wa s a little cliché (陈旧的), but it was that moment that taught me how to be a leader. It hit me then that I may have been a captain, but I, like others in my position, certainly didn't deserve the role. As a leader you can never quit on the team who looks up to you. It is one thing to be named captain, but it is quite another to be a real captain and make sure everyone works to their potential all the time.I am sure it is great to go through high school without losing and bringing home awards. But I relish the fact that my team lost every game last year. It may not help me to become a better basketball player, but it already has made me a better leader, and person.1.

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项(A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
Today, ultrasonic(超声的) waves are being put to work in laboratories and factories. If an ultrasound generator is placed in a liquid, the waves move the liquid back and forth hundreds of thousands of times each second. This causes materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解,使溶解) in liquids. Paint manufacturers(制造商) use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors. The companies that make film for your camera find that mixing chemicals by the use of sound waves will produce a more sensitive film.The new lightweight(轻量的) type of washing machine uses ultrasonic waves to get clothes clean. Its special ultrasound generator is put into a pail of soapy water containing the soiled clothes. The sound waves drive the soapy water back and forth through the cloth so fast that everything is soon clean. There is also a new kind of dishwasher that works in much the same way.Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form all through it. The liquid is actually torn apart by this action. Almost as soon as these holes are made, they fall together again. The result is a powerful pounding action. In the dairy industry this is used for the double purpose of making homogenized(使均匀,使匀质) milk and sterilizing(使无菌) it at the same time. If you look at some raw milk with a microscope, you find that it is made up of little drops of butter fat floatingaround in a watery liquid. In order to make milk easier to digest, these fat droplets(微粒) may be broken up by forcing the milk through very small openings. The result is called homogenized milk. When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not only break up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them to pieces. (from )1. Why does a paint manufacturer use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors?A. Because it is cheap to use ultrasound to blend colors.B. Because the waves move the liquid so quickly that it can make materials mix quickly or dissolve in liquids.C. Because they can mix chemicals by the use of sound waves.D. Because the waves can clean the paint.2. What properties does ultrasound wave have?A. Homogenizes and sterilizes the milk.B. Mix materials and break droplets.C. Kill germs and sterilize milk.D. Move liquids quickly.3. What exists in the raw milk?A. Little drops of butter fat.B. Small holes.C. Fat droplets and germs.D. Chemicals.4. Where is ultrasound wave not used?A. In the paint manufacture.B. In the shop mixing bread flour.C. In the film-making company.D. In the dairy industry.1. B 事实细节题。

girls at the kind of hand and eye movements necessary for ball sports.Girls,on the other hand,generally start speaking earlier than boys.And they generally see better in the dark than boys and are better at learning foreign languages.What makes men and women better at one thing or another?The answer is the brain.The brain has two sides connected by nerve tracks.The left side generally is used for mathematics,speech and writing.The right side is used for artistic creation and the expression for emotions.In men and women,different areas in each side of the brain develop differently.In boys,for example,it's the area used for mathematics.In girls,it is the area used for language skills.Another interesting difference is that the two sides of a man's brain are connected by smaller

I’ve never watched her show, but when a self-made billionaire gives life advice, it’s probably worth listening to.Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you’re a Chinese,you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump (树桩) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.A book written by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It’s not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香) in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune;it’s practical advice you can follow each day.Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he separated volunteers into two groups:those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper,” was written in big letters. The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message.It’s eas y to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “lucky”,in fact, keep an open mind and don’t go through the same routine every day.I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners,my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I’ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I’ve also never been sick, had an accident, got into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence? After reading about Professor Wiseman’s studies I think not.As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational thinking, but it’s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem.Finally, try to turn bad luck into good.Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.1. Which of the follow ing proverbs most agrees with the writer’s point?A.Make the best of a bad job.B.Rome was not built in a day.C.All that glitters is not gold.D.A good heart conquers ill fortune.2. What do you know about Oprah Winfrey?A.She became famous through her family background.B.She was very lucky and seldom suffered setbacks in her life.C.She is a British talk show host.D.She became successful by her own effort.3. The writer quoted the Chinese tale of a farmer in order to show________.A. luck is in your own handB.bad luck can turn into goodC.you should not sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to youD.man can conquer nature4. The underlined wo rd “spot” is the closest in meaning to“________”.A.recognize B.markC.locate D.receive[解题导语] 本文为议论文。

In February of 1974, Bill Tapp, an Australian farmer, saw a rain of fish that covered his farm. How surprised he must have been!What caused this strange occurrence? This is a question that had long puzzled people who study fish. The answer turned out to be a combination of wind and storm. When it is spring in the northern part of the world, it is fall in Australia. Throughout the autumn season, terrible storms arise and rains flood the land. The strong winds sweep over Australia like huge vacuum cleaners (吸尘器) collecting seaweed, pieces of wood, and even schools of fish. Strong winds may carry these bits of nature for many miles before vacuum dropped them on fields, houses, and astonished people.Although they seem unusual, fish-falls occur frequently in Australia. When Bill Tapp was asked to describe the scene of fish, he remarked, "They look like millions of dead birds falling down." His statement is not surprising. The wonders of the natural world are as common as rain. Nature, with it infinite wonders, can create waterfalls that flow upward and fish that fall out of the sky.1. What is this passage about?A. A wonder of rain.B. The Climate in Australia's northern part.C. A rain of fish.D. The damage done by floods.2.

Her spine 〔脊柱〕become bent as she grew older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but noting was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist. Rivera’s strong influences on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.64. What does the phrase “a much bigger name〞 in paragraph 1 most nearly mean?A. a far better artistB. a for more gifted artistC. a much stronger personD. a much more famous person65.

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
Today, ultrasonic(超声的) waves are being put to work in laboratories and factories. If an ultrasound generator is placed in a liquid, the waves move the liquid back and forth hundreds of thousands of times each second. This causes materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解,使溶解) in liquids. Paint manufacturers(制造商) use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors. The companies that make film for your camera find that mixing chemicals by the use of sound waves will produce a more sensitive film.The new lightweight(轻量的) type of washing machine uses ultrasonic waves to get clothes clean. Its special ultrasound generator is put into a pail of soapy water containing the soiled clothes. The sound waves drive the soapy water back and forth through the cloth so fast that everything is soon clean. There is also a new kind of dishwasher that works in much the same way.Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form all through it. The liquid is actually torn apart by this action. Almost as soon as these holes are made, they fall together again. The result is a powerful pounding action. In the dairyindustry this is used for the double purpose of making homogenized(使均匀,使匀质) milk and sterilizing(使无菌) it at the same time. If you look at some raw milk with a microscope, you find that it is made up of little drops of butter fat floating around in a watery liquid. In order to make milk easier to digest, these fat droplets(微粒) may be broken up by forcing the milk through very small openings. The result is called homogenized milk. When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not only break up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them to pieces. (from )1. Why does a paint manufacturer use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors?A. Because it is cheap to use ultrasound to blend colors.B. Because the waves move the liquid so quickly that it can make materials mix quickly or dissolve in liquids.C. Because they can mix chemicals by the use of sound waves.D. Because the waves can clean the paint.2. What properties does ultrasound wave have?A. Homogenizes and sterilizes the milk.B. Mix materials and break droplets.C. Kill germs and sterilize milk.D. Move liquids quickly.3. What exists in the raw milk?A. Little drops of butter fat.B. Small holes.C. Fat droplets and germs.D. Chemicals.4. Where is ultrasound wave not used?A. In the paint manufacture.B. In the shop mixing bread flour.C. In the film-making company.D. In the dairy industry.1. B 事实细节题。
