For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single linethrough the center.复习1Passage OneAsk a mom if she's happier now that she has a child, and she'll usually say yes. But psychologists who study happiness often report a different picture. Being the mom of a young child (especially one under 3) is rewarding, but also a real strain on your mood. "Moment to moment, you may be tired and sometimes angry, though kids do bring joy" says Peter Ubel, M.D., a professor of medicine and psychology at the University of Michigan. In fact, on their list ofenjoyable activities, moms rank childcare lower than eating, exercising, or watching TV, according to a University of Michigan study, and kid care rates only slightly higher than housework, working, or commuting!One reason for the difference between moms and experts: selective memory. When psychologists ask moms in a general way if they like spending time with their kids, the overwhelming majority say they do because they're thinking of fun activities like reading a book or playing in the park. When they're specifically asked to describe their actual daily routine, they remember the hours they spent struggling to get their child dressed or ready for bed.Maybe, though, the psychologists are missing the intensity of joy that time spent with your child can bring. Luckily, those moments can overcome your daily frustrations. "Happiness is more than just that smiley feeling," says Karen Reivich, Ph.D., a research associate in the Positive Psychology Center at the University of Pennsylvania. "It's also feeling a connection to something larger than yourself. When people are in service to something bigger, they describe their lives as filled with meaning."16. Which of the following best summarizes Peter Ubel’s opinion of being the mom of a youngchild?A. It makes the mom exhausted.B. It is both rewarding and stressful.C. It makes the mom easily irritated.D. It is quite frustrating an experience.17. According to a University of Michigan study, which of the following ranks higher thanchildcare on moms’ list of enjoyable activities?A. eating, housework or commutingB. eating, exercising or watching TVC. exercising, housework or watching TVD. exercising, commuting or watching TV18. What does the underlined phrase selective memory in the third paragraph mean?A. Moms often tend to remember only the happy moments with their children.B. Moms often tend to remember only the hours they spent taking care of their children.C. Experts tend to remember only the happy moments the moms spend with their children.D. Experts tend to remember only the hours the moms spend with their children.19. According to Karen Reivich, how do the moms’ moments of intense joy compare with theirdaily frustrations?A. Those moments make them feel more excited.B. Those moments make them feel more relaxed.C. Those moments can overcome their daily frustrations.D. Those moments can do nothing about their daily frustrations.20. From the last sentence of the passage we can infer that__________.A. Moms have only the smiley feeling about childcare.B. Moms feel frustrated at taking care of their children.C. Moms enjoy doing housework as a part of their childcare.D. Moms regard childcare as a meaningful part of their lives.Passage TwoDo you go to bed without brushing your teeth? You may think that not brushing is not a big deal. But caring for your mouth can prevent serious (and even embarrassing) problems.Cavities happen to just about everyone. A cavity is a diseased spot in the tooth. It all starts with a sticky film made up of bacteria. That film coats your teeth and gums. The bacteria eat sugars from things you eat and drink. That produces acids. Then, the acids eat away at your teeth's hard outer coating, called enamel.If you don't brush regularly to remove the film, or if you keep missing a spot, those acids keep eating away the teeth's enamel. That is how you get a cavity. "The larger it gets, the closer it gets to the nerve, increasing the chance of severe pain," says Lynn Ramer, president of the American Dentists' Association.A cavity will never just go away by itself. It will only get worse. "Left untreated, 100 percent of the time a cavity will spread," says Dr. William Berlocher, a dentist who is also president of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry.If a cavity is caught early enough, your dentist will be able to fix your tooth. The area of the tooth where the cavity was will be replaced with a special material called a filling. Some fillings are made of a metal blend containing silver. Other fillings are a tooth-colored mix of glass and a strong material called resin.If you ignore a cavity, it will spread. It can go into the tooth's root. At that point, the dentist will have to do a root canal. In that procedure, the dentist removes the tooth's nerve.21.According to the second paragraph, what is a cavity?A. a diseased spot in the toothB. a film of acids coating the teethC. a sticky film made up of bacteriaD. a hard outer coating covering the teeth22. What would happen if you do not brush regularly?A. The film coating your teeth would be removed.B. There would be less diseased spots in your teeth.C. The film coating your teeth would be less sticky.D. The acids would keep eating away your teeth’s hard outer coating.23. If a cavity reac hes the tooth’s root, how would a dentist treat it?A. Replace the cavity with a fillingB. Replace the tooth’s enamelC. Remove the tooth’s nerveD. Pull out the tooth24. According to the fifth paragraph, what are some fillings made of?A. a mix of silver and resinB. a metal blend containing glassC. a metal blend containing copperD. a mix of glass and resin25. The main purpose of the passage is to __________.A. explain the formation and treatment of cavityB. emphasize the importance of brushing teethC. discuss the proper ways of brushing teethD. describe how a dentist treats a cavityPassage ThreeSmall talk is like having loose change in your pocket. Like quarters for a pay phone, loose change comes in handy when you least expect it. But when it comes to small talk, you must know when to spend it or save it.All small talk is not the same. With some people, you walk away having killed a few moments. With others, you feel a connection and want to get to know them better. The difference is the effort one or both of you made at making a connection. It helps to call the person by name, mention things you have in common (mutual acquaintances, places you've been, experiences you've shared, career or personal goals), show interest in that person's views or hobbies, and match the other person's speaking style, voice, emotion and body language as you talk.People feel being related to others who like them, appreciate them, enjoy the same things they do and are helpful to them. Time and attention make connections that last.When you're considering small talk, be sensitive to the other person's mood and circumstances. When your airplane seatmate is obviously preoccupied, leave him or her alone. Neither would you approach someone when the person is dashing down a hallway to a meeting. On other occasions, small talk is inappropriate because of the person involved. If the CEO has unexpectedly called you in for "a little chat," this is not the time to take the lead. Let him or her dictate the topic and pace. The same is true with customers. Develop a sixth sense about those who appreciate small talk and those who don't.26. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase comes in handy in the first paragraph?A. becomes very usefulB. becomes very specialC. becomes very importantD. becomes very inconvenient27. According to the second paragraph, how can you make a connection with others?A. mention your unique experiencesB. describe others’ dressing stylesC. talk about others’ hobbie sD. discuss others’ names28. If you want to make others’ feel related to you, you may need to__________.A. spend time chatting with themB. show how excellent you areC. give presents to themD. be helpful to them29. According to the fourth paragraph, on what occasion should you avoid making small talk withothers?A. when others are strolling on the streetB. when your airplane seatmate asks you for a favorC. when your airplane seatmate is absorbed in thoughtD. when others are walking down the hallway after a meeting30. According to the last paragraph, what should you do when your CEO has unexpectedly calledyou in for “a little chat”?A.let the CEO dictate the topic and paceB.talk about the difficulties in your workC.take the lead to make small talkD.decide on the topic of talkPassage FourA biological clock is what tells plants, animals, and other organisms how to organize their time. This ‘clock’ helps plants and animals change their routine when they move to places with different climates and environments. Most biological clocks are based on the movement of the sun and follow a twenty-four hour cycle called a circadian rhythm. Some animals sleep only at night, making them diurnal. Animals that sleep during daytime are nocturnal. Flowers are diurnal because they close their petals at night but they open again in the morning. Bats sleep in the daytime so they are nocturnal.Some biological clocks also follow an annual cycle, especially in animals that have annual migrations. Animals that have annual cycles do different things at different times of year. Their actions are determined by the seasons.Different animals can live in the same area when their biological clocks make them look for food at different times of day. This process also keeps them out of each other's way. Biological clocks help plants and animals prepare for changes in the seasons. Animals need to know what time of year to reproduce so their offspring will be born when the conditions for survival are good.Human beings' sleep cycle is a circadian rhythm, a system based on the twenty-four hour day. In the circadian rhythm most humans sleep at night. When people travel to different time zones their biological clocks have to adjust. In humans, the biological clock is in a group of cells called the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN.) The SCN is located near the bottom middle part of the brain.Scientists are continuing to research the biological clock and circadian rhythms. Scientists discovered the first circadian gene in a mammal (a mouse) in 1997. It is only a matter of time before your own biological clock will tell YOU the time!31.Which of the following type of animal or plant is nocturnal?A. human beingsB. flowersC. batsD. cows32.What is a circadian rhythm?A. a twenty-four hour cycle of most biological blocksB.the closure and opening of the petals of flowersC. a cycle of some animals’ annual migrationD.the movement rhythm of the sun33.According to the third paragraph, why can different animals live in the same area peacefully?A.Because they look for different types of food.B.Because their conditions for survival are good.C.Because they do different things at different times of year.D.Because their biological clocks keep them out of each other’s way.34.Where is the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) located?A.the bottom middle part of the brainB.the bottom left part of the brainC.the top right part of the brainD.the top left part of the brain35.From the last sentence of the passage we can infer that __________.A.We still lack a full understanding of our own biological clock.B.Our own biological clock is a lot different from that of a mouse.C.We have already known much about the circadian rhythms of mammals.D.There is still a lot to be done before your own biological clock will tell you the time.复习2Passage OneAre some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reached those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents andchildren, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.1.The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him __________.A.at birthB.through educationC.both at birth and through educationD.more at birth than through education2.If a child is born with low intelligence he can __________.A.never become a geniusB.still become a genius if he should be given special educationC.exceed his intelligence limits in rich surroundingsD.not exceed his intelligence limits even in rich surroundings3.In the second paragraph “if we take two unrelated people at random from the population--”means if we __________.A.pick any two personsB.take out two different personsC.choose two persons who are relativeD.choose two persons with different intelligence4.The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows__________.A.the importance of their intelligenceB.the role of environment on intelligenceC.the importance of their positionD.the part that birth places5.The best title of this passage can be __________.A.SurroundingsB.IntelligenceC.Dependence on EnvironmentD.Effect of EducationPassage TwoBefore the grass has thickened on the roadside verges and leaves have started growing on the trees it is a perfect time to look around and see just how dirty Britain has become. The pavements are stained with chewing gum that has been spat out and the gutters are full ofdiscarded fast food cartons. Years ago I remember travelling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bags, discarded bottles and soiled nappies at the edge of every road. Nowadays, Britain seems to look at least as bad. What has gone wrong?The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives lasts a lot longer than before. If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away, it stays in the undergrowth for years; a semi-permanent reminder of what a tatty little country we have now.Firstly, it is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers. These will take anything from 100 to 1,000 years to rot. However, it is not as if there is no solution to this. A few years ago, the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrier bags and in three months reduced their use by 90%. When he was a minister, Michael Meacher attempted to introduce a similar arrangement in Britain. The plastics industry protested, of course. However, they need not have bothered; the idea was killed before it could draw breath, leaving supermarkets free to give away plastic bags.What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined effort, both individual and collective, before it is too late. The alternative is to continue sliding downhill until we have a country that looks like a vast municipal rubbish tip. We may well be at the tipping point. Yet we know that people respond to their environment. If things around them are clean and tidy, people behave cleanly and tidily. If they are surrounded by squalor, they behave squalidly. Now, much of Britain looks pretty squalid. What will it look like in five years?6.The writer says that it is a good time to see Britain before the trees have leaves becauseA. Britain looks perfect.B. you can see Britain at its dirtiest.C. you can see how dirty Britain is now.D. the grass has thickened on the verges.7.According to the writer, things used to be___________.A. worse abroad.B. the same abroad.C. better abroad.D. worse, but now things are better abroad.8.To solve the problem of plastic bags, Michael Meacher__________A. followed the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.B. tried to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.C. made no attempt to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.D. had problems with the plastics industry who weren't bothered about the tax.9.As to what can be done, the writer thinks __________A. it is too late to do anything.B. we are at the tipping point.C. there is more than one way to solve the problem.D. we need to work together to solve the problem.10.The writer thinks that__________。

What is considered appropriate in France may be entirely inappropriate in Japan.To the Japanese, gift giving is a way of communicating respect, friendship, and appreciation. When meeting with a group of Japanese professionals, be sure to give higher quality gifts to those with more senior rank within the company. Always present the gift with two hands. This is also true with presenting business cards.Gift giving in Australia, Canada, United States, European countries is rarely expected. While seen as a nice gesture, it is more important to avoid gifts that will be regarded as bribes( 行贿 ). Small gifts such as pens, business diaries, and mementos with company logos are usually sufficient. It is important to avoid highly personal gifts such as clothing. When visiting the home of a colleague from one of these countries, it is normally appropriate to present a gift to the hostess.In conclusion, international gif t giving rules varies from country to country. We can’t list all customs here. Before presenting a gift to an important foreign colleague, do a little research on the customs, it will help you more.(1). What is the mainly idea of the passage? ( )A. Gift giving in eastern countries. ?B.Gift giving professions.C.Gift giving in western countries.D.Gift giving customs.(2). Which of the following behaviors is not correct in Japan according to the passage? ( )A. Giving the same quality of gifts to all the people.B.Using two hands to send gifts or cards.C.Following the general rules of Japanese.D.Never preparing any gifts.(3). Which of the following gifs is preferred in European countries? ( )A. Money.B.Business diaries.C.ClothingD.Ties(4). We may prepare a gift to the hostess when visiting the home EXCEPT in ( )A. JapanB.AustraliaC.CanadaD.USA(5). The rules of gift giving varies greatly, what shall we do before present a gift? ( )A. Preparing the expensive gift.B.Avoid highly personal gifts.C.Do research on the customs.D.Ask our guests beforehand2. Hotlines have become common in Chin Some radio broadcasting stations use hotlines to encourage the listeners to take part in the talk shows.That''s a good idea Yet, the fact is, some people do nothing but break the whole programme. Some people know little about the topic under discussion. Sometimes they do not even know what the host ( 主持人 ) is talking about. So the host has to tell the caller what the show is about. Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express hope and show his ignorance ( 无知 }. Then the host has to answer and explain —— how silly this is! It wastes a lot of time. It seems that some people phone the hotlines in fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They don''t care what the topic is, whether they themselves are interested in or how silly they appear to be.I think that it''s necessary for radio stations to improve the hotline programmes. In my opinion, if a caller doesn''t know what is going on, the operator should not let the callers take part in it(1). The sentence "some people do nothing but break the whole programmes" may tell us that ( )A. radio stations use hotlinesB.in a wrong way it is a factC.it is a good ideaD.some people have unclear thoughts(2). According to the passage, which of the following is not true? ( )A. Some people do not know what the host is talking about.B.Some people know little about the topic under discussion.C.Some people do not know what the show is about.D.The writer tells us that the host is silly.(3). The host has to answer and explain ( )A. for the host works hardB.because of the caller's ignoranceC.for the host likes talking to the callerD.because a lot of questions are raised by the caller(4). The passage doesn't tell us ( )A. that some listeners phone the hotline in funB.that some people just want to be heard by othersC.that some people who don't care what the topic is realize that they appear to be sillyD.what the hotlines programmes are(5). The word "operator" in the last sentence refers to the( )A. hostB.listenerC.doctor D.both A and B3. There has been a great deal of research into the art of negotiation, and, in particular, into what makes a “good negotiator”.One point most researchers seem to agree on is that good negotiators try to create a harmonious atmosphere at the start of a negotiation.They make an effort to establish a good rapport with their opposite member, so that there will be a willingness — on both sides — to make concessions, if this should prove necessary.Good negotiators generally wish to reach an agreement which meets the interests of both sides. They therefore tend to take a long-term view, ensuring that the agreement will improve, at least not harm, their relationship with the other party. On the other hand, a poor negotiator tends to look for immediate gains, forgetting that thereal benefits of a deal may come much later.Skillful negotiators are flexible. They do not “lock themselves”into a position so that they will lose face if they have to compromise. They have a range of objectives, thus allowing themselves to make concessions, for example, “I aim to buy this machine for £2 000” and not “I must buy it for £2 000”. Poor negotiators have limited objectives, and may not even work out a “fall-backposit ion”.Successful negotiators do not want a negotiation to break down. If problems arise, they suggest ways of resolving them. The best negotiators are persuasive, eloquent people, who select a few key arguments and repeat them.Finally, it is essential to be a good listener and to check frequently that everything has been understood by both parties.(1). The best title for the passage is ( )A. Benefits on Both SidesB.Art of NegotiationC.Skills of CommunicationD.How to Be a Good Negotiator(2). Negotiators’ good rapport can make it easy for negotiators ( )A. to make them fully understoodB.to make necessary concessionC.to create a positive environmentD.to increase negotiators’ status(3). If we understand that the some real benefits of a deal may come much later ( )A. we will take a long term view in the negotiationB.we will pay more attention to the benefits on both sidesC.we will try much harder to improve the agreementD.we will try to change the relationship with the other party(4). Many poor negotiators may not make any concession for themselves in that ( ).A. they are afraid of losing faceB.they have no clear objectivesC.they are not flexibleD.they are not skillful(5). Good negotiators are usually very persuasive and eloquent in order to ( )A. work out ways to resolve problemsB.make sure that everything is understoodC.have better communication with their partnersD.avoid the breakdown of the negotiation4. Nellie Melba was Australia''s "Queen of Opera". She was born in 1861 and her real name was Helen Porter Mitchell. She grew up in musical family.

Mr. Harris used to work in Dover, but then he changed his work, and he and his wife moved to another town. They did not have many friends there, but they soon met a lot of interesting people, and after a few weeks, they often went to dinner or to parties at other people’s houses.Then Mrs. Harris said to her hu sband, “We’ve been to a lot of other people’s houses, and now we must invite them to our house, mustn’t we?”“Yes, certainly,” answered her husband, “A big par ty will be the easiest thing, won’t it? Then we can start to invite people to dinner in small num bers next month.”So Mrs. Harris said, “Yes, I’ll invite all our friends here to a big party on 5th December.”“How many will that be?” Mr. Harris asked. “Don’t invite too many.”Mrs. Harris was beginning to write the invitations when her husbandsaw that she was writing, “Party: 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.”“That isn’t very nice, is it?” he said. “You’re telling our guests that they must go at 8:30.” So Mrs. Harris just wrote “Party: 6:30 p.m.”A lot of guests came, and they all had a good time, so they did notgo home at 8:30. In fact they were still there at mid-night when the door bell rang and a policeman arrived. He said, “You must stop making a noise, because someone has complained(抱怨).”Mr. Harris said he did not want to quarrel with the policeman, so everyone went home. They were sorry to have to go.When Mr. and Mrs. Harris were alone again, she said to him. “Thatwas a surprise, wasn’t it? Who complained about the noise?”“I did,” Mr Harris answered in a tired voice. How long would Mrs. Harris like the party to last?A. From the morning till night.B. About fourteen hours.C. About two hours.D. Till midnightc9. Certainly no creature in the sea is odder than the common sea cucumber(海参). All living creatures, especially human beings, have their peculiarities, but everything about the little sea cucumber seems unusual.What else can be said about an odd animal that, among other eccentricities, eats mud, feeds almost continuously day and night but can live without eating for long periods, and can be poisonous but is considered supremely edible by gourmets(美食家)?For some fifty million years, despite all eccentricities, the sea cucumber has subsisted on its diet of mud. It is adaptable enough to live attached to rocks by its tube feet, under rocks in shallow water, or on the surface of mud flats. Common in cool water on both Atlantic and Pacific shores, it has the ability to such up mud or sand and digest whatever nutrients are present.Sea cucumbers come in a variety of colors, ranging from black to reddish-brown to sand-color and nearly white. One form even has vivid purple tentacles. Usually the creatures are cucumber-shaped — hence their name — and because they are typically rock inhabitants, this shape, combined with flexibility, enables them to squeeze into narrow cracks where they are safe from predators and ocean currents.Although they have voracious appetites, eating day and night, sea cucumbers have the capacity to become inactive and live at a low metabolic rate —(ceding sparingly or not at all for long periods, so that the marine organisms that provide their food have a chance to multiply. If it were not for this faculty, they would devour all the food available in a short time and would probably starve themselvesout of existence.But the most spectacular thing about the sea cucumber is the way it defends itself. Its major enemies are fish and crabs, when attacked, it squirts all its internal organs into the water. It also casts off attached structures such as tentacles. The sea cucumber will eviscerate(排出内脏) and regenerate itself if it is attacked or even touched; it will do the same if the surrounding water temperature is too high or if the water becomes too polluted. The passage is mainly about ______.A. the reason for the sea cucumber'''' s nameB. ways to identify the sea cucumberC. places where the sea cucumber can be foundD. the peculiarities that make the sea cucumber unusual10. Now she ( ) to do whatever she can for him.A. MakesB. LongsC. WaitsD. takes11. Upon ( ), please switch off the air-conditioner.A. apartB. departmentC. apartmentD. departure12.

She said ( )A. what it was a beautiful flowerB. what a beautiful flower it was.C. how a beautiful flower it wasD. how a flower was beautiful.14. ---“ Hello, this is Dr. Smith’s office.

It listed all the tradesmen in each village in my part of the country, and it was impressive to see the great variety of services which were available on one'''' s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside. Nowadays a superficial traveller in rural England might conclude that the village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the inhabitants or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. Admittedly there has been a contraction (收缩)of village commerce, but its vigor is still remarkable.Our local grocer''''s shop, for example, is actually expanding inspite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing (排队) up at a supermarket. And the proprietor (店主) knows well that personal service has asubstantial cash value.His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but hewill deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing of bicycling on the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old age pensioner (领养老金)who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing. The more affluent customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red-faced figure, instantly obtains it for them.The village gains from this sort of enterprise, of course. But I also find it satisfactory because a village shop offers one of the few ways in which a modest individualist can still get along in the world without attaching himself to the big battalions of industry or commerce. The writer implies that one disadvantage of town shops is that __.A. their prices are higherB. people cannot telephone themC. their staff may make less trouble to satisfy customersD. one has 10 queue up to pay in them39. Great changes ( ) in China since 1978.A. have been taken placeB. have taken placeC. has been taken placeD. has taken place40. From time to time she looked round ( ) searching for someone.A. as toB. asC. as forD. as if41. A man walked into a restaurant that advertised having the longest menu in the world. The manager was very proud of being able to provide any dish, no matter how unusual.At the bottom of the menu, there was a notice that said, “If you do not see the dish you require on this menu, please tell us and we will add it to the menu immediately.”The man looked at the menu and decided to make life really difficult for the manager and his chef. He would order something that was very unusual.When the waiter came up to take his order, he said, “You say you can serve any dish, anything at all, even if it''''s not on your menu, whic h is the longest menu in the world.”“That is correct, sir. We have never yet been unable to meet our customers'''' requirements.”“Very well,” the man said. “In that case, bring me two elephant ears on toast. Indian, not African.”The waiter wrote down on his pad:Two Indian elephant ears on toast.“Very good, sir”, he said. “That shouldn''''t take long. ”He walked away quickly.The man was very surprised and rather disappointed.Then he smiled as the waiter returned with a very unhappy look on his face.“Ah! ”the man said. “You can’t bring me elephant ears on toast, can you? ”The waiter was very apologetic.“I’m very sorry, sir, and this is most embarrassing, ” he said, “but I’m afraid we can’t. Unfortunately, we’ve run out ofbread. ” the waite r was unhappy because _____ .A. the man didn''''t order elephant earsB. they had no elephant to cookC. they didn''''t want to serve the customerD. the chef didn''''t know how to cook the elephant ears42.

And in the summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists (游客).Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon. Next day, this news appeared on page two of the town''s newspaper. The Beldon Post.FIRE AT SEABREEZELATE LAST NIGTH FIREMEN HURRIED TO THE SeabreezeHotel and quickly put out a smallfire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all ourvisitors, "Please don''t smoke cigarettes in bed." This was Beldon''s first hotel fire for five years. ! "''The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one: AOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRELast night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture (家具) at the Seabreeze Hotel. An angry holiday-maker said, "An electric lamp probably started the fire. The bedroom lamps are very old at some these hotels. When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp." We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield.What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident. There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel 1 st August: that is one fact. Do we know anything else? Yes——we know that firemen went to the hotel.Now what do you think of the rest the "news"?(1). Which of the following best gives the main idea of this article?A. Beldon and Canfield are both good places for tourists in summer.B. A fire broke out one night in Seabreeze Hotel last summer.C. It was not easy to find out exact truth from newspaper.D. Two newspaper gave reports on the same matter.(2). Which of the following are probably facts?a. The fire broke out in a bedroom at the hotel.b. A cigarette started the fire.c. An old lamp started the fire.d. The fire broke out at night.A. b and cB. a and dC. c and eD. a and c(3). The Canfield Times used the headline like this in order to make its readers think ( )A. hotels in Beldon often catch fireB. hotels in Beldon don't often catch fireC. this was the second fire in the Seabreeze HotelD. Beldon was a good place except that hotels there are not quitesafe(4). The Canfield newspaper gave a report just the opposite to The Beldon Post by saying that ( )A. the fire men failed to save clothing, bedclothes and other thingsB. the bedroom lamps were very oldC. the bedroom lights made funny noiseD. such accidents never happened in Canfield(5). The "angry holiday-maker"( )A. caused the fire when he turned on a lampB. didn't seem to be really angryC. was talking about the lamps in Seabreeze HotelD. lived in the room which had caught fire2. Many chemical pesticides(杀虫剂), such as DDT, are more dangerousto other animals than to the pests(害虫) themselves. However, there are safer methods used to control pests. One method iscalled biological pest control. It uses living things to control pest populations. For example, one type of biological pest control usesthe natural enemy of a pest. The natural enemy eats the pest, orstops it from reproducing. For instance, aphids(蚜虫)that eat leaves are controlled using ladybird beetles(瓢虫).The ladybird beetle reduces aphids populations by eating the pest. Many natural chemicals from plants and animals are excellent pesticides. Some plants contain chemicals that taste bad, smell bad, or are even poisonous to pests. Scientists can collect these chemicals and spray them on other plants. Some pests produce their own chemicals that can also be used tocontrol them. Many female insects give off chemicals to attract male. Scientists collect the chemical and use it to lure male insects. By killing male insects we may have fewer young insects. Pest control of any type can often be avoided if people use preventive methods. Many farmers prevent insects from becoming pests by changing the plants they grow ever year. Covering food and garbage can be reducing common pets such as flies. Thus many cases we can avoid problems by removing the food or shelter that pests like.(1). There are many ways to keep pests under control besides using ( )A. synthetic chemicalsB. natural chemicalsC. synthetic fertilizersD. natural fertilizers(2). Smell is a type of ( ) chemical used by insects.A. communicationB. pesticideC. herbicideD. agricultural(3). Why some natural chemicals from plants and animals are excellent pesticides?A. Some plants contain chemicals that are poisonous to pests.B. Some pests produce their own chemicals that can be used to control them.C. Scientists collect the chemical of female insects to lure male insects.D. All of the above.(4). The main idea for this passage is ( )A. It is impossible to control pests without pesticidesB. If people use precautionary methods to control pests, they do notneed to use pesticides.C. Many farmers change plants each yearD. Garbage and food in cities causes three major pest problems(5). Which is not mentioned in the passage?A. Compare and contrast different methods of controlling pets.B. Explain how pesticides work to kill pests.C. Describe how people can avoid using pesticides.D. Many chemical pesticides are dangerous3. Hotlines have become common in China. Some radio broadcasting stations use hotlines to encourage the listeners to take part in the talk shows.That''s a good idea. Yet, the fact is, some people do nothing but break the whole programme. Some people know little about the topic under discussion. Sometimes they do not even know what the host (主持人) is talking about. So the host has to tell thecaller what the show is about. Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express hope and show his ignorance (无知}. Then the host has to answer and explain——how silly this is! It wastes a lot of time.It seems that some people phone the hotlines in fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They don''t care what the topic is,whether they themselves are interested in or how silly they appear to be.I think that it''s necessary for radio stations to improve the hotline programmes. In my opinion, if a caller doesn''t know what is going on, the operator should not let the callers take part in it.(1). The sentence "some people do nothing but break the whole programmes" may tell us that ( ).A. radio stations use hotlines in a wrong wayB. it is a factC. it is a good ideaD. some people have unclear thoughts(2). According to the passage, which of the following is not true?A. Some people do not know what the host is talking about.B. Some people know little about the topic under discussion.C. Some people do not know what the show is about.D. The writer tells us that the host is silly.(3). The host has to answer and explain ( ).A. for the host works hardB. because of the caller's ignoranceC. for the host likes talking to the callerD. because a lot of questions are raised by the caller(4). The passage doesn't tell us ( ).A. that some listeners phone the hotline in funB. that some people just want to be heard by othersC. that some people who don't care what the topic is realize thatthey appear to be sillyD. what the hotlines programmes are(5). The underlined word "operator" in the last sentence refers tothe ( ).A. HostB. ListenerC. DoctorD. both A and B4. The sense of sound is one of our most important means of knowing what is going on around us. Sound has a wasted product, too, in the form of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound. Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets and better. Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals. They are surprised by what they have learned. Peace andquiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked at carefully. There is a saying about it being so noisy that you can’t hear yourself think. Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear o urselves think. If we don’t we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even worse mental problems. Noise adds more tension(紧张) to society that already faces enough stress. But noise is not a new problem. In ancient Rome,people complained so much about noise that the government stopped chariots (四轮马车)from moving through he streets at night!Ways ofmaking less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controlling noise. We cannot return to the “good old days” of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noise – if we shout loudly enough about it.(1). Why are scientists surprised by the findings in their noise study?A. Because the world is becoming more and more noisy.B. Because they have learned that noise is also a kind of pollution.C. Because noise is an unwanted waste for human beings.D. Because people knew little about the danger of noise before.(2). What may be the result if we cannot hear ourselves think?A. We may forget what we have thought about.B. Our thoughts may be interfered.C. Our mind may be harmed.D. WE may have difficulty using the right words.(3). When the writer says we cannot return to the good old days, he means that ( ).?A. our society is becoming much worse than beforeB. in our modern society it is hard to lead a quiet lifeC. the old days were much happier than the present timeD. it is impossible for us to deal with noise as we did before(4). From the last sentence of the passage we can learn that ( ).A. we can put noise under control if our measures are effectiveB. sometimes we have to shout loudly so that others can hear usC. shouting is a chief cause of noise pollutionD. it is important to warn people of the danger of noisepollution(5). Which of the following is TRUE according to the passageA. Only recently did people realize the harmfulness of noise.B. Noise pollution is the worst kind of pollution we suffer from.C. People are now trying to find ways to make noise as low as possible.D. The writer thinks that it is almost impossible for people to avoid noise.答案:一、单项选择题(60分,共 60 题,每小题 1 分)1. B2. D3. A4. B5. C6.

For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.The History of JewelryRhinestones have a glittering past. Originally rhinestones were referred to Czechoslovakian or Bohemian glass dating as far back as the 13th century in Bohemia and the Czech Republic. Both places have a history steeped in beautiful hand blown glass as well as molded and cut glass.By 1918 glass was no longer limited to functional items. Czechoslovakian glass began to make its appearance in dazzling and brilliant jewelry. This Czech glass became known as rhinestones.Rhinestones were manmade gems from highly refined glass. By using various metals the glass was colored to the desired shade. It was then pressed into molds. Each stone was then ground and polished by machine, resulting in a brilliant glass stone. Often the stones were foiled on the back which increased their brilliance.Today, the same refining process is still used. You will often hear rhinestones referred to as paste. Originally paste was referred to a glass stone that was made of ground glass which was molded and then melted, producing an opaque dense glass frosted stone. Paste had many air bubbles and swirl marks. The high lead content glass was then polished and faceted, and set on either copper or silver resulting in a brilliant stone. Today the term “paste”usually refers to rhinestones. In Europe rhinestones are often referred to as paste, strass, and diamante.Austria is another area with a history in rhinestone production. In 1891 Daniel Swarovski created a new glass cutting machine which quite literally revolutionized the jewelry business. This machine could cut faceted glass, producing finely finished product in a very short time. Prior to this invention it would take a very long time for each stone to be cut by hand and finished. Swarovski’s background in glass making, combined with his glass cutting machine soon found him producing rhinestones with a lead content of over 30%. The brilliance of these rhinestones was superior to anything seen on the market. Swarovski wasn’t content with his invention and the best rhinestones ever seen. His next invention was once again transforming to the jewelry industry. He created a vacuum plating for the backs of the stones with silver and gold, reducing the need forhand labor. Still today Swarovski rhinestones are recognized as the highest quality in the industry. Over 80% of rhinestone jewelry manufactured in America use Swarovski rhinestones.Rhinestones have played an important role in costume jewelry for hundreds of years. It is used to enhance and decorate the costumes, and sometimes rhinestones will provide the entire design. During the Victorian period common design patterns for jewelry included snakes, flowers, and hands most often adorned with rhinestones.The 1890s were a time for extravagant jewelry heavily with rhinestones. As time moved forward designs became simpler with figural shapes once again making their fashion statement. However this time they were small and more elegant with small rhinestone decorations.During the Edwardian period extravagance had made a comeback with diamonds and pearls being the focal point. Once again rhinestones were in heavy use, often used to imitate the real thing.During the 1920s fashions were rapidly changing. Dresses had gone from tight, fitted to a looser, more comfortable style. Two distinct styles occurred during this ear --- the feminine style and the androgynous style (having both female and male characteristics). Jewelry from the 1920s drew on the art decoration period. The majority of rhinestone jewelry was made with clear rhinestones.As the 1920s moved jewelry once again became bolder. Dramatic color was in style. Designer Coco Chanel was an integral figure in setting the stage for jewelry of this era.During the 1930s, during the Depression, labor-intensive fashion was no longer feasible. While the world in chaos, jewelry represented an affordable comfort to many women. Inexpensive costume jewelry could be used to revitalize an old outfit. The industry began to produce bright colored enamel pieces decorated with rhinestones. Dogs, birds, or cats with a rhinestone eye were commonplace.The jewelry during 1940s once again became big and bold with rhinestones being produced in every imaginable color, large stones set on large bold setting was the norm.By the 1950s there were two very distinct looks --- elegant and sophisticated for the more mature woman, and casual and fun for the younger woman. The 1950s saw jewelry that were made completely from rhinestones. For the younger woman were flirty prices, for the older woman sophisticated elegance. Whole sets of rhinestones jewelry became extremely popular.In 1953 the aurora borealis rhinestone was introduced to the market with its fabulous array of color. It was an instant hit.By 1906s women were wearing very functional clothing. By the late 1960s the hippie fashions were extremely popular with their roots tied to Mother Nature. Tie dyed shirts, long flowing skirts, frayed jeans were everywhere. This generation had no interest in rhinestone jewelry.By the mid 1970s, the punk look had been born and the rhinestone was revitalized. It was the disco movement brought the rhinestone back to center stage. The disco movement turned into the club movement during the 1980s and rhinestone jewelry continued to gain popularity.Since the 1970s rhinestones have remained main stream in the jewelry world. They continue to gain popularity and today there is a style to suit almost every one’s needs. There is rhinestone jewelry which is perfect for a bride, rhinestone jewelry for a prom girl, rhinestone jewelry for the young and fun crowd, the business woman, the sophisticated woman, and the mature woman. Beautiful pieces of rhinestone jewelry adorn almost every woman’s accessories.If trends are an indication of the rhinestones future, it appears to have a brilliant healthy life ahead of it. Pleasing for most women with a fashion sense who instantly recognize the value and beauty of rhinestones!1.

A few minutes later, there was no Tom, so George started beating the water with his oar and there was Tom, 35 back to the boat, leading us to the hunt again.Using a telescope we could see that 36 was happening. As we drew closer, I could see a whale being attacked by a 37 of about six other killers."What're they doing?" I asked George."Well, it's teamwork - the killers over there are throwing themselves on top of the whale's blow-hole to stop it breathing.

But fire can burn things too. It can burn trees, houses, animals, or people. Sometimes big fires can burn forest.Nobody knows for sure how people began to use fire. But there are many interesting, old stories about the first time a man or woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man very, very long time ago.

For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.The Third Session of the World UrbanDrawing some 10,000 participants from over 100 countries, the Third Session of the World Urban Forum closed on Friday paving the way for a new drive forward on the international urban agenda in a world of rapidly growing cities.The Forum in Vancouver lived up to its promise of moving ideas to action. The conference symbolized inclusiveness, with balanced participation from public, private andcivil society sectors. Compared to previous sessions of the Forum, there was a notable increase in private sector participation.The Continual Growth of Urban PopulationsIt was from Vancouver that a new message rang out: The urban population of developing countries is set to double from 2 to 4 billion in the next 30 years. In the same time span, the developed world's urban population is projected to rise by only 11 percent. This means, said Ms. Katherine Sierra, the former Mayor ofBogotá, Colombia, that the growth rate of urban population confrontingdeveloping countries is about 10 times that of the developed world.“In short, these 2 billion new urban inhabita nts will require theequivalent of planning, financing, and servicing facilities for a new cityof 1 million people, every week for the next 30 years ,”Ms. Sierra said. "Imagine," said Mr. Penalosa, "that means a new city each weekthe size of Vancouver."Reaching OutVancouver 2006 also brought governments closer to women'sorganizations, youth groups, the representatives of poor people andother non-governmental organizations than ever before at such aninternational meeting."In this interdependent world, opportunity and deprivation areinterlinked," Mr. Kofi Annan, the Secretary General of the UnitedNations said in his message to the conference.The quest for creative new ideas and practical solutions wasunderscored in the 6 Dialogues, 13 Roundtables and more than 160Networking Events. Ministers, mayors, academics, community-based organizations, federations of non-governmental organizations, and theprivate sector shared their insights and experiences on what wouldimprove the quality of life in the world's growing cities. The inclusiveapproach followed at the Forum is a model for cities. Some are alreadyfollowing this model while others would benefit from doing so.Professor H. Peter Oberlander, the Senior Advisor to Canada’sCommissioner General for the conference said: “With the next session inNanjing in 2008, we have to ensure that the wonderful achievement createdduring this week in V ancouver continues, and that we keep our focus.”Key PointsThere were four key points of agreement that emerged from the ThirdSession of the World Urban Forum in V ancouver 2006. The first pointemphasized the need for all urban players – citizens, local governments,编号:专业班学号:姓名:装订线出题⼈:⼤学英语教研室教研室负责⼈签字:王志慧系主任签字:冯梅___ state and provincial governments, national governments, the private sector and civil society organizations –to work harder to solve urban problems and challenges. There waswidespread agreement that they all must do their part, rather than simply transferresponsibility to others. The second point was that risk-taking and the pursuit of creativitymust characterize leadership if cities are to achieve sustainable development. Vancouver's example in taking the lead in such areas as air and water quality, public transport andplanning was mentioned often in this context. The third point focused on agreement that appropriate engagements, partnerships and relationships need to be built in an inclusivemanner to better understand challenges and develop practical solutions. Participants frommany parts of the world presented examples that can serve as guideposts for these strategies.And finally, the fourth point was directed toward the importance of transparency and accountability. Citizens need to be informed of challenges and steps taken by governments to address them. Transparency goes hand-in-hand with accountability, which speeds up the process of enhancing actions that work and curtailing those that do not work.The Observation of the MeetingA number of observations were made at the Forum, some of which are described below:● "Beautiful speeches, awful reality" – The Millennium (千禧年) Development Goals arenot having an impact on the ground in many countries. The commitments made by governmentsat the Millennium Summit in 2000 and the adoption of national poverty reduction strategies in several countries have not necessarily resulted in improved living conditions among the urbanpoor. For instance, the increasing incidence of forced evictions goes against the Millennium Development Goals aimed at reducing poverty. Participants felt that there was still a wide discrepancy between what governments said and what they did, and this discrepancy needed to be addressed if the Millennium Development Goals are to be met in cities.● Converging approaches to sustainable urban development policies betweendeveloped and developing nations. The traditional North-South divide was not evident at this Forum, as countries from both developed and developing countries seemed united in theview that sustainability – and its link to poverty – was a major challenge facing all cities.There was, however, recognition that each region faced particular challenges that were best addressed by a more systematic exchange of best practices and good urban policies amongall stakeholders at the local, national and international levels.● Particular emphasis was placed on the needs of women, youth and people with disabilities. The Forum was marked by a strong participation of women and youth.It was recognized that youth represented a large proportion of peopleliving in cities and their participation in large numbers infused awelcome energy in the deliberations. Youth representatives encouragedparticipants of the Forum to adopt strategies bearing the specific needsof youth in mind and to engage youth in decisions affecting their lives.The Forum further recognized the ongoing investment and resourcecontribution of grassroots women to the sustainability of cities andcommunities.● The emerging reality of public-private partnerships. The Forumrecognized that cities are largely the product of private investment. Thestrong presence of the private sector and its active participation in theForum underscored their interest in engaging in the quest forsustainable cities.● The win-win success of the Forum. The success of the ThirdSession of the World Urban Forum lay not just in what was discussedbut in what was learned. Participants were keen to share ideas, networkand forge new alliances through both formal and informal meetingswith partners, and viewed the Forum not as a place where declarationsand plans of action were endorsed but where experiences were shared.Heading into the FutureOn the way forward, the spirit and enthusiasm manifested at theForum showed that every participant was committed to the basic themeof the Forum “T urning Ideas into Action”. Hundreds of actionable ideaswere proposed, described and exchanged.All spheres of government need to make urban agenda a priority intheir respective plans and policies. Outcomes here will be brought to theUN Governing Council and, through it, to the UN General Assembly,with a call for a strengthened role of the United Nation and internationalagencies in meeting the urban sustainability challenge.Questions 1-10 are based on the passage:编号:专业班学号:姓名:装订线出题⼈:⼤学英语教研室教研室负责⼈签字:王志慧系主任签字:冯梅___ 1. were addressed at the Third Session of the World Urban Forum.A) Symbols of inclusiveness B) Increases in private participationC) Efforts concerning urban growth D) Actions to improve Vancouver2.

I always__38__ such people, but I also explain that there’s a big differencebetween "being a writer" and writing. In most cases these individualsare dreaming of 39 and fame, not the long hours alone at atypew riter. "You’ve got to want to write," I say to them, "not want to bea writer."

After a year or so, however, I编号:专业班学号:姓名:装订线出题⼈:⼤学英语教研室教研室负责⼈签字:王志慧系主任签字:冯梅___ still hadn’t gotten a break and began to 45 myself. It was so hard to sell a story that 46 made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about itfor years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering, what if? I wouldkeep putting my dream to the test----even though it meant living with 47 and fear offailure. This is the Shadow land of hope, and anyone with a dream learn to live there.Section BPassage 1 Questions 48 to 52 are based on the following passage:Television has now come to nearly every family. It has become a very important part inpeople's life. School children in the US watch TV about 25 hours a week.Some people feel that television is good for children because it helps them learn abouttheir country and the world. With the help of programs of education, children do better in school. Other people feel that there are too many programs about love and crime on TV, and that even programs of education don't help children a lot. Children simply watch too much television, so they don't do a lot of other important things for their education. Children of three to six learn to speak their language and talk with people. When they are watching TV, they are only listening to the language, and they aren't talking with anyone. When school children watch TV, they read less. Because of this, they don't learn to read or write quickly at school.All children learn by doing, and they need time to play in order to learn about the world.When they watch TV, they play less. They also have less time to do with their parents and friends, and they have less time for sports.Recently, fifteen families in Denver decided to stop watching TV for a month or more. Atfirst it was difficult, but there were soon a lot of good changes that children read , played, and exercised more, and the family became full of joy. But at the end of the month all the families began to watch TV as much as before. Not one family was able to give up television completely.48.

Because school children watch too much TV, they_____A) write more quickly than beforeB) don't learn to read or write as quickly at schoolC) read a lotD) read and write much morePassage 2 Questions 53 to 57 are based on the following passage. Food sometimes gets poisoned with harmful things. A person whoeats such food can get an illness called food poisoning. Food poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are deadly. The symptoms of food poisoning usually begin within hours of eating the poisoned food. Fever is one of the most common symptoms.Certain microorganisms(微⽣物)cause most types of food poisoning. Bacteria and other microorganisms can poison eggs, meat, vegetables, and many other foods. After entering the body, these tiny living things release(释放)poisons that make people sick.Some chemicals can also cause food poisoning. They are often added to food while it is being grown, processed, or prepared. For example, many farmers spray chemicals on crops to kill weeds and insects. Some people may have a bad reaction to those chemicals when they eat the crops.编号:专业班学号:姓名:装订线出题⼈:⼤学英语教研室教研室负责⼈签字:王志慧系主任签字:冯梅___Some plants and animals contain natural poisons that are harmful to people. These include certain kinds of seafood, grains, nuts, seeds, beans, and mushrooms.When people handle food properly, the risk of food poisoning is very small. Microorganisms multiply rapidly in dirty places and in warm temperatures. This means that people should never touch food with dirty hands or put food on unwashed surfaces. Food should be kept in a refrigerator to stop microorganisms from growing. Meat needs to be cooked thoroughly to kill any dangerous microorganisms. People should also wash food covered with chemicals before eating it. Finally, people should not eat wild mushrooms or other foods that grow in the wild. Some of these foods may contain natural materials that are poisonous to humans. In addition, some types of fish can be poisonous.Most people recover from food poisoning after a few days of resting and drinking extra water. If people eat natural poisons, they must go to the hospital right away to have their stomachs emptied.53. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A) Food when poisoned can make people sick.B) Food poisoning means death.C) Food poisoning comes in varieties.D) Food poisoning can be serious.54.

He is going to sell it because it is haunted (闹鬼的). He told me that he could not go to sleep one night because heheard a strange noise coming from the bar. The next morning, he found that the doors had been blocked by chairs and the furniture had been moved. Though Mr. James had turned the lights off before he went to bed, they were on in the morning. He also said that he had found five empty whisky bottles which the ghost (鬼) must have drunk the night before. When I suggested that some villagers must have come in for a free drink, he shook his head. The villagers have told him that they will not accept it even if he gives it away.(1)、Mr. James was the owner of the public house. ( A )A:TB:F(2)、Mr. James had not turned off the lights that night.

He surprised his landlord by telling him that he was leaving because he could not afford to buy any more chocolate.It all began a year ago when Albert returned home one evening and found a large dog in front of his gate. He was very fond of animals and as he happened to have a small piece of chocolate in his pocket, he gave it to the dog. The next day, the dog was there again. It held up its paws and received another piece of chocolate as a reward. Albert called his new friend "Bingo". He never found out the dog's real name, nor who his owner was. However, Bingo appeared regularly every afternoon and it was quite clear that he preferred chocolate to bones. He soon grew dissatisfied with small pieces of chocolate and demanded a large bar a day. If at any time Albert neglected his duty, Bingo got very angry and refused to let him open the gate. Albert was now at Bingo's mercyand had to bribe him to get into his own house! He spent such a large part of his weekly wages to keep Bingo supplied with that in the end he had to move somewhere else.(1)、Albert lived there for many years.

( B )A:TB:F3、Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person's conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing "the right thing." Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, "You're just saying that to make me feel good. Iknow it's not true." It is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths.Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let's not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.(1)、What does the author try to prove by citing "what kind of impression am I making?" (Para.1)______B____A:Shy people benefit from their caring about their appearance.B:People's shyness made them care too much about their appearance and actions.C:It's natural that shy people don't believe other's compliments.D:Shy people think they are different from others.(2)、According to the writer, self-awareness is _____A_____.A:a good qualityB:the cause of unhappinessC:harmful to peopleD:a weak point of shy people(3)、That shy people react to a compliment in such a way is _____B______.A:goodB:unrealC:very reasonableD:harmful(4)、Which of the following statements is true, according to the passage? _____C____A:Shyness helps us to develop our potentialB:Shyness enables us to understand ourselves betterC:Shyness can block our chances for a rich lifeD:Shyness has nothing to do with lack of self-esteem(5)、It can be inferred from the passage that shy people _____B___.A:should find more of their weaknessB:should understand themselves in the right wayC:had better ignore their weaknessD:can get rid of their shyness while maintaining low self-esteem三、词汇与语法1、___C___ these honours he received a sum of money.A:ExceptB:ButC:BesidesD:Outside2、A police officer claimed he had attempted to _A___ paying his fare.A:avoidB:rejectC:refuseD:neglect3、How can he __B___ if he is not _____?A:listen; hearingB:hear; listeningC:be listening; heardD:be hearing; listened to4、He likes to swim ____A___.A:and to play footballB:and playing footballC:but play footballD:and he also likes playing football5、Both the kids and their parents __C____ English, I think.

It is certainly true that worry and quarrel can cause all kinds of illnesses, 1 backache to severe headaches, or even more serious complaints such as high blood pressure.Many of us think 2 stress as something that other people impose on us. We often complain about how other people put us 3 pressure. But we should try not to let such pressure affect us. We should not forget that we are largely responsible for some of the stress ourselves. We sometimes take 4 more work than our bodies and our minds can handle. We should learn to 5 our limitations. We should be aware of which things are really important and which are not.(1)、DA:ofB:underC:acceptD:fromE:on(2)、AA:ofB:underC:acceptD:fromE:on(3)、BA:ofB:underC:acceptD:fromE:on(4)、EA:ofB:underC:acceptD:fromE:on(5)、CA:ofB:underC:acceptD:fromE:on五、英译汉(1)、Various substances differ widely in their magnetic(磁性的)characteristics. 很多物质在它们的磁性特征上有很大的不同。
