Answer the questions on each text by choosing A,B,C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1A pioneering study by Donald Appleyard made the surprise sudden increase in the volume of traffic through an area affects a sudden increase in crime does. Appleyard observed this by firhouse in San Francisco that looked much alike and had middle-class and working-class residents. The difference was that only 2,000 cars a day ran down Octavia in Appleyard‟s terminology while Gough Street (MEDIUM street) had 9,000 cars a day and Franklin Street (HEA VY street) had around 16,000 cars a day.Franklin Street often had as many cars in an hour as Octavia Street had in a day. Heavy traffic brought with it danger, noise, fumes, and soot, directly, and trash secondarily. That is, the cars didn‟t bring in much trash, but when trash accumulated, residents seldo m picked it up. The cars, Appleyard determined, reduced the amount of territory residents felt responsible for. Noise was a constant intrusion into their homes. Many Franklin Street residents covered their doors and windows and spent most of their time in the rear of their houses. Most families with children had already left.Conditions on Octavia Street were much different. Residents picked up trash. They sat on their front steps and chatted with neighbors. They had three times as many friends and twice as many acquaintances as the people on Franklin.On Gough Street, residents said that the old feeling of community was disappearing as traffic increased. People were becoming more and more preoccupied with their own lives. A number of families had recently moved. And more were considering it. Those who were staying expressed deep regret at the destruction of their community.46.Appleyard‟s study focuses on the influence of ______.A.traffic volume on the residentsB.rate of crime on the neighborhoodC.social classes on the transportationD.degree of pollution on the environment47.Appleyard discovered that increase in the volume of traffic ______.A.made people more violentB.would lead to increase in crimeC.was accompanied by increase in crimeD.had the same effect on people as increase in crime48.The author‟s main purpose in the second paragraph is to ______.A.discuss the problem of handling trashB.suggest ways to cope with traffic problemsC.point out the disadvantages of heavy trafficD.propose an alternative system of transportation49.People on Gough Street ______.A.felt sorry that their block had been pulled downB.felt indifferent about people moving outC.thought their old community was goneD.thought mostly of themselves50.What can we learn about Franklin StreetA.It is not a nice neighborhood for childreB.People often throw trash out as they drive througC.People there have made friends with people on OctaviD.People there own twice as many cars as people on Gough StreeText 2Imagine, if you will, the average games player. What do you see A guy who never grew up Or a nervous 18-year-old pushing buttons on his controller, lost and alone in a violent onscreen world Sorry, you lose. The average gamer is starting to look pretty much like the average person. For the first time, according to a US poll commissioned by AOL Games, roughly half of those surveyed, ages 12 to 55, are tapping away at some kind of electronic game—whether on a PC, a cell phone or another handheld device—for an average of three hours every week.The games people play say a lot about who they are. Machines like the Xbox and PlayStation 2 are largely the territory of twenty-something men, who prefer to picture themselves as sports …stars and racing drivers. Men 50 and older prefer military games. Teenage girls are much more likely than boys to play games on their phone, while older women make up the majority of people playing card games such as Hearts on line.Is it a good thing, all this time spent on games Or is it as harmful as television, pulling people ever further from reality The AOL survey suggests some players are in denial about the extent of their habit. One in 10 gamers find it impossible to resist games; 1 in 4 admits to losing a night‟s sleep to play games; and another quarter has been too absorbed to have meals.But don‟t think we‟re all heading into a world with everyone plugged into, if not totally controlled by, his own game. Quite the contrary: gamers appear to be more engaged with reality than other kinds of couch potatoes. According to a comprehensive survey by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA-whose members, of course, want you to think video games are healthy), gamers spend an average of 23 hours a week volunteering and going to church, concerts, museums and other cultural events. More enthusiastic gamers who play 11 hours a week or more spend ever more time out in the cultural world (34 hours).51. The AOL survey finds that electronic games ______.A.do not present a violent onscreen worldB.no longer keep gamers from growing upC.are no longer exclusive to young peopleD.are not as popular with teenagers as before52.Who does the author say tend to identify themselves with the characters in the gameA.Teenage girlB.Older womeC.Men in their 20D.Men 50 and olde53.When asked about the extent of their habit, some players ______.A.refused to provide an answer to this questionB.denied they were affected by electronic gamesC.wondered why they were asked such a questionD.stressed their interest in playing electronic games54.It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.electronic games are less harmful than televisionB.television viewers are more realistic than gamersC.television is more popular than electronic gamesD.gamers have less self-control than TV viewers55.According to the writer, the ESA members ______.A.have sufficient knowledge of gamesB.think their games are healthy productsC.serve as the role models for game playersD.are concerned about gamers' cultural activitiesText 3The ostrich, the largest bird in the world at present, lives in the drier regions of Africa outside the actual deserts. Because of its very long, powerful legs and the floating effect of its extended wings, it is able to run at great speed over considerable distances.The female ostrich normally produces about twenty eggs every rainy season. When the female ostrich begins to lay her eggs, however, she does not begin in her own nest. Instead she goes off in search of the nests of neighboring females and lays two or three eggs in each of them. By the time she has laid eight or nine eggs, she returns and lays the rest in her own nest.Because of the size of the eggs, the female ostrich cannot lay more than one every two days, so it takes her three weeks to finish laying in her own nest. During that period, she spends a lot of time away from her nest looking for food. And while she is off her nest, other females visit it to lay their eggs amongst hers. By the time she is ready to sit on the eggs to hatch them, there could be up to thirty eggs in her nest, over half of which are not her own.The female ostrich can comfortably cover only about twenty eggs when she is sitting on the nest so before settling down she pushes the surplus ten or so eggs out of the nest. The rejected eggs, however, never include any of her own. Each female is remarkably consistent in the size and shape of the eggs she produces, so it is not difficult for her to distinguish her own from those of strangers.Of all the eggs laid by a colony of ostriches, only a very small number hatch into young birds. There are times when nests are left unprotected, for there are too few males to sit on all the nests at night. Thus there are ample opportunities for their natural enemies to raid the nests and eat the eggs. In fact, nearly 80% of the nests are destroyed. But even if a particular female‟s nest suffers this fate, there is a good chance that one or two of her eggs will be hatched in the nest of one of her neighbors.56.We learn from the text that an ostrich can go a long distance at high speed as ______.A.it is a special kind of birdB.it lives in large desert areasC.it has special wings and legsD.it is the largest bird in the world57.Normally, in every rainy season, the female ostrich produces about ______.A.12 eggs in her nestB.18 eggs in her nestC.20 eggs in her nestD.30 eggs in her nest58.The female ostrich would push some of the eggs out of her nest because ______.A.she can only hatch her own eggsB.those eggs are unlikely to be hatchedC.those eggs are to be hatched by othersD.she can only hatch a limited number of eggs59.The female ostrich identifies her own eggs by their size and ______.A.colorB.numberC.shapeD.weight60.The female ostrich lays her eggs in her neighbors' nests most probably because ______.A.her nest -is not big enoughB.she cannot protect all her eggsC.she cannot tolerate all her eggsD.her nest is not comfortable enoughPart BDirections: Read the opinions given by five scholars on challenges facing today‟s single women. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each scholar (61 to 65) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.What the women I spoke with said was that they want a husband who is independent and dedicated to his career, but that he doesn‟t hav e to make a lot of money. The emphasis was always on finding a best friend—a soul mate—someone you could tell all your troubles to and who would be supportive. So it doesn‟t seem to be the case that these women were looking for super high-achieving men.Grise LevisonI think that for women, as well as for men, the standard for someone who you‟d want to spend your life with depends much more today on emotional intimacy. It takes some trial and error and a pretty long and dedicated search to identify the kind of person who is emotionally matching you and who is able to communicate and listen to trouble talk.Marry BrownIn recent decades girls have been raised to be more competitive and stronger than they were in the past. Several women I talked to mentioned that in their life they felt that their intelligence or intellectual achievement seemed to work against them in their romantic relationships with men. However, most of the women I interviewed felt that there were some men "out there" who would be attracted to smart women. The problem was finding them.Donna SmithI think, for the women I talked to, their ultimate sense of what they want in life includes family and children, but they aren‟t willing to think about the fact that they therefore will probably have to give up some of their own individual pursuits and career goals. I think the definition of success includes both love and work, and that the challenge is how to arrange that in a particular order.Elizabeth BudyI think that people who have clone at least some of the things that are essential for a wise judgment about a partner are more likely to eventually end up in a stable marriage. It‟s also true that they‟re likely to marry someone who is similar to them in education and earning pow er, which means that those marriages are likely to have more money in them.Now match the name of each scholar (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements[A] Career success is in fact not a disadvantage.[B] The ability to choose a right partner ensures a stable mar riage.[C] How to balance career with family is key to success.[D] The essential part of marriage is the union of soul.[E] Finding an emotionally intimate mate isn‟t a piece of cake.[F] Career success ensures a solid marriage.[G] Social assistance is needed for today‟s single women.61.____________________62.____________________63.____________________64.____________________65.____________________Section ⅣWritingDirections: Y ou should write your responses to both Part A and Part B of this section on ANSWER SHEET 2.Part A1.

In the Middle Ages people believed it was the earth, not the sun, _____ the center of our planetary system.A、was thatB、that wasC、wasD、thatPart IV Reading ComprehensionPassage OneQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:Parents have to do much less for children today than they used to, and home has become much less of a workshop. Clothes can be bought ready made, washing can go to the laundry, food can be bought cooked, canned or preserved, bread is baked and delivered by the baker, milk arrives on the doorstep, meals can be had at the restaurant, the work’s canteen(自助食堂), and the school dining-room.It is unusual now for father to pursue his trade or other employment at home, and his children rarely, if ever, see him at his place of work.. Boys are therefore seldom trained to follow their father’s profession, and in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls. The young wage-earner often earns good money, and soon acquires a feeling of economic independence. In textile(纺织) areas it has long been a rule for mothers go out to work, and this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now a not unusual factor in a child’s home life, and the number of married women in employment has more than doubled in the last twenty-five years. With mother earning and his older children drawing decent(相当好的) wages, father is seldom the dominant figure that he still was at the beginning of the century. When mother works, economic advantages increase, but children lose something of great value if mother’s employment prevents her from being home to greet them when they return from school .61. What does the first paragraph tell us about policemen?A、They often watch TV.B、They like watching TV.C、They are too busy to watch TV.D、They hate seeing themselves on TV.62. Why does the writer mention a lawyer in the second paragraph?A、To show that a lawyer’s job is more comfortable.B、To emphasize that policemen are physically strong.C、To compare a lawyer’s with policemen’s.D、To indicate that a lawyer’s job is less important than a policeman’s.63. What do real policemen do at work?A、They often deal with robbers and thieves.B、They talk with a lot of victims and visitors.C、They don’t deal with serious crimes very often.D、The usually stay in their office studying cases.64. What does the passage say about a detective?A、His job is to make arrests.B、He is good at finding criminals.C、He has to prove his case in court.D、He visits and helps his witnesses.65. What is the main idea of the passage?A、It is hard for policemen to do their job well.B、Policemen keep in touch with a lot of people.C、Policemen are people that we admire and respect.D、Real policemen’s life is different from what is shown on TV.Passage TwoQuestions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:If an agreement signed in Germany works out, travelers of this Asian city may one day be able to move from the downtown area to its new airport on a train riding a stream of magnetic energy at speeds up to 500 kilometers per hour.The 40-kilometer trip----now sometimes a long hour journey when the traffic isheavy----could be cut to less than 10 minutes.Such are the goals of a costly project designed to help to ―shorten‖ the distance between the city center and the suburban busy airport by making it easier and faster to carry travelers to and back from the airport.The mayor of the city and Germany’s Thyssen Krupp AG worked out an agreement in Berlin only several days ago that lays the groundwork for the magnetic levitation(悬浮) train line. They signed an agreement to carry out an initial study on the project and outlined the city’s intention to import German technology. The project, once completed and acceptable to the two business parties, will be a double-win: the German company can benefit from exporting its technology and the city receiving German technology can improve its traffic and further strengthen its position as an international city.Called Maglev for short, the system under discussion makes use of a high-speed train levitated above a guideway(高速车辆的导路) and driven by magnetic fields. The project has been in the talking stage for several months.Hans Ueberschaer, the German government official, visited the city together with Harmut Heine, representative of Thyssem Krupp. They had an initial discussion with the mayor three about the project. The talks were believed to be constructive and paved the way for the future talks in Berlin, where an agreement was reached.66. Which of the following is NOT true of fingerprints?A、They vary from person to person.B、They are easily hidden and removed.C、Their uniqueness is beyond explanation.D、They remain unchanged throughout one’s life.67. What does ―superficial injuries‖ in the second paragraph mean?A、―injuries caused by accident‖B、―injuries in inner skin‖C、―severe injuries in the skin‖D、―injuries on the surface of the skin‖68. Why do policemen often use fingerprints in their investigation?A、Because it is the only way to identity the suspect.B、Because it is the easiest way to solve a criminal case.C、Because they can be easily recorded with printer’s ink.D、Because they can help policemen to identify their owners.69. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A、It is difficult to see fingerprints with human eyes.B、There are special ways to recover a suspect’s fingerprints.C、Even a small part of a fingerprint is useful for identificationD、Suspects usually try to avoid leaving their fingerprints at the scene.70. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A、Fingerprints and Their UseB、Policemen and FingerprintsC、Fingerprints Are Useful EvidenceD、Fingerprints Identify Criminals without MistakePassage ThreeQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:In some countries there is a fixed charge for personal services. A certain percentage may be added to the bill at a hotel or restaurant ―for the service‖. In other places the customer may be expected to give a tip, or a small amount of money, as a sign of appreciation whenever services are performed. In the United States there is no standar d practice in regard to tipping. The custom is more common in a large city than in a small town. A native American may often be in doubt about when and how much to tip when he is in a city that is strange to him. In general, however, a tip is expected by the porter who carries your baggage, by taxi drivers( except, perhaps, in a small town), and by those who serve you in hotel and restaurants..When you pick up your incoming baggage at an airport, you may tip the man who takes it to the taxi or airport bus. He usually expects one dollar a bag for his service. In some cities the taxi that takes you to your hotel may have one meter (计价器) that shows the cost of the trip and another that shows a fixed charge, usually about 50 cents, for ―extra‖. In some cities the taxi driver may expect a tip in addition to the ―extra‖, especially if he carries your suitcase. If no ―extra‖ is charged, a tip is usually given. Hotels generally do not make a service charge, though there are places where one is added. It is customary (惯常的), however, to give something to the porter who carries you suitcases and shows you to your room. In case of doubt, one dollar for each bag he carries is satisfactory. In a restaurant you generally leave about 15 percent of the bill in small change on that table as a tip for the person who has served you. A service charge is generally not included inthe bill except in some of the larger, more expensive places. If the order is small----a cup of coffee at a lunch counter, or something of the sort----a tip is not usually expected.71.

After reading the passage carefully, translate the underlined sections into Chinese. Remember to write your translation on the Translation Sheet.People have traded and bartered 物物交换) for centuries. Whatever else the flea (跳蚤) market may appear to be, its purpose is the sale and exchange of goods. Whether they are knowledgeable collectors or just plain bargain hunters, people are drawn to the flea market by the enormous amount and variety of goods offered.(76) The possibility of finding something truly valuable before anybody else does make shopping at a flea market a treasure hunt.For many buyers, the process of bargaining at a flea market is as much fun as the bargain itself. (77) It’s not just the money they save that gives them a sense of accomplishment; it’s the satisfaction of playing an ancient game.Satisfaction also comes from the immediacy of a flea market exchange. After you negotiate your price, it is ―cash and carry‖: the dealer pocket your money, you go home with your purchase, and that’s that. You got what you wanted, and the dealer got what he or she wanted.(78) In today’s world of credit cards, the flea market takes you back to a time whenlife was simpler and money had more meaning.What do the ―fleas‖ have in common here?(79) Perhaps it is a belief in becoming economically self-sufficient, and in taking control of their own lives. Vendors(摊贩) willingly give up the security of a nine-to-five job in exchange for freedom: freedom from fixed working hours; freedom from the world of inflation; freedom to choose when, where, and what they will sell; freedom to be what they want to be.Yet the flea market is much more than an odd mixture of people selling a variety of products. ―This is a serious enterprise,‖ says a vendor. ―The amount of a labor and organization that goes into an operation like this is impressive.‖(80) Perhaps most important to the flea market’s success is the spirit of cooperation among vendors. ―At the flea market, everyone is encouraged to be an individual, but, at the same time, to help each other out,‖ says another vendor. ― It’s a shame cities aren’t run like this.‖76.77.78.79.80.Part VI Translation from Chinese into English81. 和其它品牌相比,我们的电脑质量上乘,价格富有竞争力。

But I am a woman, and like millions of women, I know there are still barriers and biases out there, often unconscious. I want to build an America that respects and embraces the potential of every last one of us.I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worries about my daughter's future anda mother who wants to lead all children to brighter tomorrows.To build that future I see, we must make sure that women and men alike understand the struggles of their grandmothers and mothers, and that women enjoy equal opportunities, equal pay, and equal respect.Let us resolve and work toward achieving some very simple propositions: There are no acceptable limits and there are no acceptable prejudices in the twenty-first century.You can be so proud that, from now on, it will be unremarkable for a woman to win primary state victories, unremarkable to have a woman in a close race to be our nominee, unremarkable to think that a woman can be the President of the United States. And that is truly remarkable.To those who are disappointed that we couldn't go all the way – especially the young people who put so much into this campaign – it would break my heart if, in falling short of my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours.Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. When you stumble, keep faith. When you're knocked down, get right back up. And never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on.As we gather here today in this historic magnificent building, the 50th woman to leave this Earth is orbiting overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House.16.

"When he's shooting the ball like that, a lot of times I'm standing there watching and, all of a sudden, [the other team's] getting the ball and going on a fast break, and I'm getting yelled at by the coach." Indeed, McGrady's body control, his energy, his shooting - watching these are like watching an artist at work, blending colours, constructing sentences, or playing music.3 Unfortunately, McGrady, 27, hasn't always been on the job. Already this season, he's missed seven games with back spasms. After Yao Ming was injured on Dec. 23, it appeared Houston would be without both of its stars. McGrady, however, returned three days later and has been playing well ever since, scoring more than 30 points in each of the last six games, as of Tuesday. Houston can't seem to get on without him. When McGrady was injured, the Rockets won two and lost five.4 "Listen, there are only four or five people on the entire planet that can do the things he can do with the basketball," forward Shane Battier said of McGrady. "From a fan's perspective - and we're fans even though we're players - it's really fun to watch him do that. "From a player's perspective, his game can affect the entire team. No question. We see him, and we get excited, and that pumps us up. He keeps making shots, and suddenly it seems to become easier for everybody."5 But it won't, really. Houston has just begun an important stretch on their schedule. Four of the next seven games will be played away from Houston - and without Yao. Six of the games will be against teams with winning records. Opponents will double-team McGrady in an attempt to dull the impact of his art. Instead of watching, McGrady's teammates will need to create a little art of their own.23. Paragraph 224. Paragraph 325. Paragraph 426. Paragraph 5A. McGrady's InjuryB.

College students will ignore piles of homework. Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.The disease, known as "March Madness", refers to the yearly 65-team US men's college basketball tournament. It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April. Teams compete against each other in a single-elimination tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness.The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends, husbands against wives, and colleagues against bosses.Big-name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little-known universities.This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Last year, they little-known George Mason University was one of the final four teams. Many people had never been heard of the university before the tournament.College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves. But that doesn't mean money isn't involved.About $4 billion will be spent gambling on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will draw over $500 million in advertising revenue this year topping the post-season revenue, including that of the NBA(全国篮球协会).31. What will happen in the remaining part of the month?A. Many Americans will be sent to madhouses.B. Great excitement will spread across the US.C. About 20 million Americans will be put in prison.D. A deadly epidemic will break out in the US.32. Which statement about the epidemic is NOT true?A. It occurs every fourth year.B. It starts on March 15.C. It is known as "March Madness".D. It lasts through the beginning of April.33. Which of the following is NOT an instance of "March Madness"?A. Kids run away from school.B. Husbands kiss their wives.C. College students keep homework piling up.D. Employees can't concentrate on their work.34. It is great funA. looking at wives kissing their husbandsB. listening to students talking to their teachersC. watching farmers kicking their donkeysD. betting on the winners of each game35. The little-known George Mason University was a dark horse becauseA. it had a student body of 30,000B. its players were al black peopleC. it had never been expected to be victoriousD. its players ran as fast as black horse参考答案:31. B. Great excitement will spread across the US.32. A. It occurs every fourth year.33. B. Husbands kiss their wives.34. D. betting on the winners of each game35. C. it had never been expected to be victorious第二篇Declining Interest in Developing Foreign Language SkillsAustralia's foreign language skills are declining, Voice of America has reported. New figures show that only 13 percent of high school graduates can speak a foreign language. But four decades ago, 40 percent had foreign language skills.Professor Elise Tipton, from the University of Sydney, says increasingly students do not feel the need to learn another language to boost their career. She believes that Australia's economic boom, which is driven by red-hot demand for its minerals, is helping mask serious deficiencies in its language skills.Australia does business very successfully in English with most of its trading partners. But as the world's economic power shifts to emerging regions such as Asia, its language gap could soon be exposed. According to the new figures, less than 6.5 percent of high school graduates are proficient in an Asian language. Academics worry that this means Australia will increasingly be isolated from its economically important Asian neighbors. Dilip Dutta, from the economics and business faculty at Sydney University, says language skills can enhance trading opportunities. If Australians want to trade with Asian countries, it is very important for them to learn the language that will help them to get closer to the culture.But students have different opinions about Asian language learning. Pippa McCowage, a 22-year-old Australian student, says many young Australians have a half-hearted approach to foreign languages, and the language curriculum is often weak. "While we're encouraged in high school to learn another language, it's not really apparent to me as a realistic expectation that you will have to speak it," said McCowage. "For example, I learned Japanese in high school, when I went on an exchange in Year 10, I found that the Japanese students of my age had a much greater proficiency in English than I did in Japanese. So in that sense, it almost discourages you.At present, about 70 percent of Australia's major exports go to Asia and the Australian government has been keen on developing closer economic and diplomatic ties with Asia. Academics say that, as Asia becomes one of the world's economic powerhouses, Australia needs to improve its language skills if it is to take full advantage of the business opportunities on its doorstep.36.

The programme offers guidance in finding rooms and jobs.Economists blame young people's family dependence on the precarious(不稳定的) labour market and increasing housing prices. Housing prices have risen 17 per cent a year since 2000.Cultural reasons also contribute to the problem, say sociologists. Family ties in south Europe - Italy, Portugal and Greece - are stronger than those in middle and north Europe, said Spanish sociologist Almudena Moreno Minguez in her report "The Late Emancipation of Spanish Youth: Keys for Understanding"."In general, young people in Spain firmly believe in the family as the main body around which their private life is organized," said Minguez.In Spain - especially in the countryside, it is not uncommon to find entire groups of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews(外甥/侄子) all living on the same street. They regularly get together for Sunday dinner.Parents' tolerance(宽容) is another factor. Spanish parents accept late-night partying and are wary of setting bedtime rules."A child can arrive home at whatever time he wants. If parents complain he'll put up a big fight and call the father a Fascist," said Jose Antonio Gomez Yanez, a sociologist at Carlos III University in Madrid.Mothers' willingness to do children's household chores worsens the problem. Dioni-sio Masso, a 60-year-old in Madrid, has three children in their 20s. The eldest, 28, has a girlfriend and a job. But life with mum is good."His mum does the wash and cooks for him; in the end, he lives well," Masso said.41. The "Youth Emancipation" programme aims at helping young peopleA. live in an independent wayB. fight for freedomC. fight against social injusticeD. get rid of family responsibilities42. It can be inferred from paragraph 5 that family ties are stronger in Portugal than inA. GreeceB. FinlandC. SpainD. Italy43. Young people's family dependence can be attributed to all the following factors EXCEPTA. parent's toleranceB. housing problemsC. unwillingness to get marriedD. cultural traditions44. Which of the following statements is NOT true of Dinoisio Masso?A. She has a boyfriend.B. She is 60 years old.C. She has three children.D. She lives in Madrid.45. The phrase "wary of" in paragraph 8 could be best replaced byA. tired ofB. afraid ofC. worried aboutD. cautious about参考答案:41. A live in an independent way42. B Finland43. C unwillingness to get married44. A She has a boyfriend45. D cautious about第五部分:补全短文Reduce PackagingPressure increased recently on British supermarkets and retailers to reduce packaging as part of an anti-waste campaign. ________________(46).

Offer them a second serving after they finish, but don’t ask more than once. Most guests will take more if they want. Perhaps the most important rule of all is to be natural.

Mind-reading1 MachineA team of researchers in California has developed a way to predict what kinds of objects people ar re looking at by scanning what's happening in their brains.When you look at something, your eyes send a signal about that object to your brain. Different regions of the brain process the information your eyes send. Cells in your brain called neurons are responsible for this processing.The fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging ) 2 brain scans could generally match electrical activity in the brain to the basic shape of a picture that someone was looking at.Like cells anywhere else in your body, active neurons use oxygen. Blood brings oxygen to the neurons, and the more active a neuron is, the more oxygen it will consume. The more active a region of the brain, the more active its neurons, and in turn, the more blood will travel to that region. And by using fMRI, scientists can visualize3 which parts of the brain receive more oxygen-rich blood--and therefore, which parts are working to process information.An fMRI machine is a device that scans the brain and measures changes in blood flow to the brain. The technology shows researchers how brain activity changes when a person thinks, looks at something, or carries out an activity like speaking or reading. By highlighting the areas of the brain at work when a person looks at different images, fMRI may help scientists determine specific patterns of brain activity associated with different kinds of images.The California researchers tested brain activity by having two volunteers view hundreds of pictures of everyday objects, like people, animals, and fruits. The scientists used an fMRI machine to record the volunteers' brain activity with each photograph they looked at. Different objects caused different regions of the volunteers' brains to light up on the scan, indicating activity. The scientists used this information to build a model to predict how the brain might respond to any image the eyes see.In a second test, the scientists asked the volunteers to look at 120 new pictures. Lik e before, their brains were scanned every time they looked at a new image. This time, the scientists used their model to match the fMRI scans to the image. For example, if a scan in the second test showed the same pattern of brain activity that was strongly related to pictures of apples in the first test, their model would have predicted the volunteers were looking at apples.词汇:scan v. &n. 扫描visualize v. 使可见;设想neuron n. 神经元注释:1.

Reduce PackagingPressure increased recently on British supermarkets and retailers to reduce packaging as part of an anti-waste campaign. (46) Britain generates 4.6 million tons of household waste every year by packaging.Dozens of people have expressed anger at the excess of plasticwrapping.Campaigners have called on Britain to learn from other European countries. (47) When returned bottles are put in a vending machine (自动售货机), the deposit is refunded. Environmentalists warn that Britain lags behind in this.There were reports of growing unease among consumers over the amount of packaging they have to deal with. Trade standards officers also object to excessive packaging. (48)In response to a campaign by Britain's The Independent newspaper, leading supermarkets have pointed to various initiatives to win the public confidence. (49) But campaigners said retailers and the government could learn much from anti-waste practices on the Continent.
