A
In a society such as the united States or Canada , which has many national , religions （宗教）and cultural differences, people highly value individualism ---the differences among people．Teachers place a lot of importance on the qualities that make each student special．The educational systems in these countries show these values ．Students do not memorize information．Instead, they work on their own and find answers themselves．There is often discussion in the classroom．At an early age , students learn to from their own ideas and opinions．In most Asian societies , by contrast , the people have the same language , history and culture ．Perhaps for this reason , the educational system in these Asian countries re flects society’s belief in group goals and purposes rather than individualism ．Children in China , Japan , and Korea often work together and help one another on assignments （作业）．
There are advantages and disadvantages to both of these systems of education ．For example , one advantage to the system in Japan is that students there learn much more maths and science than American students learn by the end of high school ．They also study more hours each day and more days each year than North American do．The system is difficult but it prepares students for a society that values discipline and self—contro．There is , however , a disadvantage．Memorization is an important learning method in Japanese schools．Yet many students say that after an exam , they forget much of the information that they have memorized．
The advantage of the educational system in North American , on the other hand , is that students learn to think for themselves ．The system prepares them for a society that values creative ideas．There is , however , a disadvantage ．When students graduate from high school , they haven’t memorized as many basic rules and facts as students in other countries have ．56．American teachers attach much importance to individualism because ________ .
A．they are required to do so
B．their students do not memorize information
C．the United States is a country of different cultures
D．their students always work individually
57．Which of the following is most likely a description of Asian method of education ?
A．Each child in a classroom draws a different picture
B．Students have to find information themselves
C．Students are prepared for a society that values discipline
D．Teachers serve as a guide in discussion
58．We can learn from the passage that the author might believe ________
A．different educational systems are based on the development level of different country
B．students from Western countries are creative but selfish
C．Asian students are merely interested in maths and science
D．The two different educational systems could be combined（结合）together
59．In this passage the author mainly discusses ______
A．how Western school systems mirror the value of individualism
B．the advantage and disadvantage of the two educational systems
C．what Asian schools should do to make students more creative
D．the differences in culture , religion , etc ．between the East and West

flowered shirts, and women often wear long flowered dresses．There are traditional Chinese, Japanese and Filipino Holidays and all the holidays from the United States．They call Hawaii the Aloha State．Aloha means both hello and goodbye．It also means I love you.
Usually when people from different countries, races and traditions live together, there are serious problems．There are a few problems in Hawaii, but, in general, people have learned to live together in peace.
Hawaiians get most of their money from visitors, and most of the visitors come from the mainland and from Japan．There are so many people living in Hawaii now that there are residential areas（住宅区）where there used to be farms．Some of the big sugar and apple companies have moved to the Philippines, where they do not have to pay workers as much money．The families of the first people who came from the U．S．mainland own the important banks and companies．Japanese are also buying or starting businesses.

A woman from Japan ，who had visited major businesses and investment companies in New York City ，was telling a friend about her trip to the US．"I studied English before I left home．But I still was not sure that people were speaking English."
Her problem is easy to understand．Americans in business are like people who are in business anywhere．They have a language of their own．Some of the words and expressions deal with the special areas of their work．Other expressions are borrowed from different kinds of work such as the theater and movie industry.
One such saying is get your act together.
When things go wrong in a business, an employer may get angry．He may shout, "Stop making mistakes．Get your act together."
Or, if the employer is calmer, he may say, "Let us get our act together."
Either way, the meaning is the same．Getting your act together is getting organized．In business, it usually means to develop a calm and orderly plan of action.
It is difficult to tell exactly where the saying began．Perhaps one of the actors was nervous and made a lot of mistakes．The director may have said, "Calm down, now．Get your act together." Word expert James Rogers says the expression was common by the late 1970s．He says the Manchester Guardian newspaper used it in 1978．The newspaper said a reform policy required that
the British government get its act together.
Now, this expression is heard often when officials of a company meet．One company even called its yearly report, "Getting Our Act Together."
56．Paragraph1 is written mainly to _______
A．tell us the Japanese woman’s English is poor
B．lead to the subject in the whole passage
C．tell us it is important to grasp spoken English
D．tell us traveling in the US is very difficult
57．The reason why the woman was not sure that people were speaking English was that ______ A．they speak too fast to follow
B．they didn’t want the woman to learn their experience
C．they have some special words and expressions of their own in their field .
D．they are from theater and movie industry
58．The saying “ get your act together” in Paragraph 4 means _______
A．Don’t do that again B．You are dismissed
C．Calm down D．Get organized
59．We can infer that the saying “get your act together.” ________
A．began from movie industry.
B．was created by Word expert James Rogers in the 1970s
C．is used commonly in businesses and investment companies at present
D．was first used by the Manchester Guardian newspaper ．

Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana, Africa．It is hard for her family to get clean water．Every morning, she leaves home at 5：30 to get clean water for her family in a village far away．It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking．She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends．Millions of people in the world are like Napoga．They can’t get enough clean water to keep healthy．
Water covers 70% of the earth’s surface．But most of that is sea water．We can’t use it for very many things．Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth’s surface．
You probably feel lucky that your life isn’t as hard as Napoga’s．But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about water．We all face serious water problems．One of them is water pollution．All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty．Polluted water is very bad for people to drink．And dirty water is bad for fish, too．Now, 34% of all kinds of fish are dying out．
How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air．Then, when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty．Dirty rain, called acid rain, is also bad for plants, animals and buildings．
Scientists say that in 30 years, over half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water．We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children．
60．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．On the earth, there is very little water for our living
B．Acid rain doesn’t do harm to people, but it’s bad for plants, animals and buildings
C．W e don’t need to worry abou t water because w ater covers 70% of the earth’s surface.
D．34% of all kinds of fish are dying out because of cars and factories make our water dirty
61．Every morning Napoga went to get clean water _______.
A．before she went to school B．after she finished school
C without going to school D．after she played with her friends
62．The following is taken from the passage:
Earth Day is April 22．But on all other days, we must also remember it．The water we use is the most important natural resource on the earth.
We can put it __________
A．between Paragraph 1 & Paragraph 2
B．between Paragraph 2 & Paragraph 3

第Ⅱ卷（共45分）
第四部分书面表达（共两节，满分45分）
第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）
阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

While it is impossible to live completely free of stress，it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its effect when it can’t be avoided．The US Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to deal with stress:
◆Try physical activity
When you are nervous，angry or upset，try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity．Running，walking，playing tennis，and working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try．
◆Take care of yourself
You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest．If you easily get angry and c an’t sleep well enough，or if you’re not eating properly，it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations．If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping，you should consult a doctor．
◆Make time for yourself
Schedule time for both work and entertainment．Don't forget，play can be just as important to your overall well-being as work．You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun．Go window-shopping or work on a hobby．Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy．
◆___________
Stress can result from disorganization and a feeling that “there’s so much to do，and not enough time”．Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and as a result，you may
not achieve anything．Instead，make a list of everything you have to do，then do one thing at a time，checking off each task as it is completed．Set out to do the most important task first．1．What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8 words)
________________________________________________________________________ 2．Which sentence in the text is closest in meaning to the following one?
You should spare at least half an hour a day to do something that you like．
________________________________________________________________________ 3．Fill in the blank in the last paragraph with proper words．(no more than 8 words) ________________________________________________________________________ 4．List three statements that you have fallen into stressful situations (no more than 15 words)
①_________ ②_________ ③_________
5．Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 into Chinese.

This morning I went to ask my English teacher to give some advice on how to learn English well on the weekend．When I arrived at his office at 8:00 o’clock, he had already done his work almost one hour．First, we should make a plan of study and carry it out until we succeed．Then, we must master some basic knowledge of English such as 26 letters and 48 sounds．Vocabulary is bricks and grammar is bones．We can make different kind of phrases and sentences with them according to the rules．Finally, practice makes perfect．When I left, I found it was 12 o’clock．Through this lesson, I learned something that couldn’t be learned from textbooks Text 9
M: Look, what a fine day today!
W: Yes, I like spring very much… the air is fresh, and flowers can be seen everywhere.
M: Yeah, do you want to go to a picnic with me tomorrow?
W: I’d like to．How about asking Jenny to go with us?
M: Oh, no．She is busy with her dancing class．You know, there is a very big performance just a week later.
W: Yes, you’re right．It’s really not good for her to learn dancing．She doesn’t have any time wit h her own parents at such a good season.
M: But she doesn’t think so．She likes dancing, and dancing is her life．So will you take your camera with you tomorrow?
W: I want to, but I lent it to Tom yesterday．Do you have one?
M: No, but I’m going to buy one th is afternoon．
