Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Y ou should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Many post -80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents arc not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel freeto do something they've been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby -pooling.61.Many post -80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because_____.A .they have to look after their kids B. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money62.In paragraph 2,“ a way out” means. ______A. out of dateB. a solutionC. without questionD. a complaint63.According to the last paragraph, the solution to the problem of post-80s couples isthat _____ .A. families with kids form a small groupB. they ask their aging parents for helpC. they give up their jobsD. they lake their kids wherever they go64.What is( are) the advantage(s) of baby -pooling?A.The parents can have much more free time.B.The kids can make new friends.C.The kids won't be hanging around their parents all day long.D. All of the above.65.The passage mainly discusses _____ ?A. post -80s couples and their friendsB. post-80s couples and baby-poolingC. post-80s couples and their parentsD. kids and their grandparentsPassage2It is a terrible illustration of man ' s weakness to nature .and the tsunami(^^) that struck the Japanese coast in March. 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.Totally preventing tsunami -damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-warming systems, public education programs and evacuation( 拔散) strategics.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it's close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is lo get inland and to the higherground as quickly as possible.66.The first paragraph tells us that _____ .A.man can easily defeat the natureB.tsunamis take place only in JapanC.man's ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD.the tsunami- damage in Japan is not so terrible67.To prevent tsunami -damage, the following measures can be taken EXCEPT______A.designing firm buildings、B.developing early -warning systemsC.developing evacuation strategicsD.keeping the public unaware of the seriousness of tsunamis68.According to the passage , which of the following can cause a tsunami_____?A. Storms.B. Massive waves.C. Underwater earthquakes.D. Floods69.When a tsunami happens, the best course of action for people is to_____.A.listen to radio and television broadcasts for informationB.get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possibleC.stay where they areD.rely on the warning systemsPassage 3Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.The report, to be released Friday,analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster,population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition( 营养不良)and heal-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate c hange. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado,Boulder,who studies disaster trends, said the Forum's report was “ amethodological embarrassment”because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to h uman-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable( 易受伤害的)regions.Dr. Pielke said that“climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.“ But the report, he said,''will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed ( 有瑕疵的 ). ”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report,defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards whilestill curbing the emissions of the heat -trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic losses from climate change arc occurring in poor countries, according to the report.71.What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A. Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B.Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C.Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D.Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.72.What do we learn about the Forum's report from the passage?A.It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B.It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C.It was warmly received by environmentalists.D.It caused a big stir in developing countries.73.What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum's report?A.Its statistics look embarrassing.B.It is invalid in terms of methodology.C.It deserves our closest attention.D.Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.74.What is Soren Andreasen’ s view of the report?A. Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B. It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C. It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D. Its rough estimates arc meant to draw the attention of world leaders.75.What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?A.How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B.How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C.How emissions of heat -trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D.How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.Passage 4Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergsoff the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland,where bottled wateris consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best“ my dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's municipal water for morethan a century was called the champagne of lap water and until recently considered among the best in the world interms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the ThamesRiver tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle -ground for marketshare-this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo's Aquafina andCoca-Cola's Dasani arc both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate( 垂涎 )over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark -up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brandsaren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sen bottled water.According toan article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottleson the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it’ s sold,the popularity of bottled whaler taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76.What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A.lt is a kind of iced water.B.It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77.By saying“ My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2),V on Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that_____?A .plain tap whaler is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC.bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD.dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78.The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to____.A.tap water from the Thames RiverB.famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC.PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca -Cola's DasaniD.expensive bottled water with impressive names79.Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A. Bottled water brings in huge profits.B. Competition from the wine industry is intense.C. Most diners find bottled water affordable.D.Bottled water satisfied diners' desire to fashionable.80.According to passage, why is bottled whaler so popular?A. It is much cheaper than wine.B.It is considered healthier.C. lt appeals to more cultivated people.D. It is more widely promoted in the market.Part Ⅰ Translation( 2 x 10 )Directions: There are10 sentences in this section.

I run every morning and evening. What else can I do?” Basically you can do nothing. Your genes, not your life habits, determine your weight and your body constantly tries to maintain it.How can obese (肥胖的) people become normal or even thin through dieting? Well, dieting can be effective, but the health costs are tremendous. Charles Steinmetz, a research physician at Duke University, did a study of ten fat people. They were given liquid formula providing 600 calories a day. After more than 12 weeks, the subjects lost 45kg on average. But after leaving the hospital. They all regained weight. The results were surprising: by metabolic(新陈代谢的) measurement, fat people who lost large amounts of weight seemed like they were starving. They dreamed of food or breaking their diet. They were anxious and depressed; some were suicidal. They hid food in their rooms. Researchers warn that it is possible that weight reduction doesn’t result in normal weight, but in an abnormal state resembling that of starved non-obese people.Thin people, however, suffer from the opposite: they have to make a great effort to gain weight. William Simmons, of Washington State University, got prisoners to volunteer to gain weight. In four to six months, they eat as much as they could. They succeeded in increasing their weight by 20 to 25 percent. But months after the study ended they were back to normal weight and stayed there.This does not mean that people are completely without hope in controlling their weight. It means that those who tend to be fat will have to constantly battle their genetic inheritance if they want to significantly lower their weight. The findings also provide evidence for something scientists thought was true-----each person has a comfortable weight range (范围). The range might be as much as 9kg. Someone might weigh 60-69kg without too much effort. But going above or below the natural weight range is difficult. The body resists by feeling hungry or full and changing the metabolism to push the weight back to the range it seeks.11. What determines your weight according to the first paragraph?A. Your working mannerB. Your eating habitC. Your life styleD. Your genes12. What did Charles Steinmetz do to the ten fat people in his research?A. He let them live only on liquid food.B. He let them skip breakfast.C. He let them run every morning and evening.D. He let them skip supper.13. What happened to the ten fat people after they left the hospital?A. They went mad.B. They killed themselves.C. They were back to the original weightD. They attempted suicide.14. William Simmons made his subjects____.A. Battle their genetic inheritanceB. eat as much as they couldC. Suffer from hungerD. lower their weight15. What did scientists think was true?A. Each person wants to eat to his or her heart’s content.B. Each person has a weight range of 9kg.C. Each person wants to control his or her height.D. Each person has a suitable weight range.Passage2Questions 16-20 are based on the following passageMany people believe the glare from snow causes snow blindness. Yet, wearing dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snow blindness, when exposed to several hours of “snow light”.The Canadian Army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snow blindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather , a man’s eyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad expanse of barren snow-covered terrain. So his gaze continually shifts and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache. Nature offsets this irritation by producing more fluid which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity until vision blurs, then is obscured, and the result is total, even though temporary, snow blindness .Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts, ahead of a main body of troops, are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape; even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark colored objects ahead on which they too can focus. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop scouring the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snow blind or lost .In this way the problem of crossing a solid white terrain is overcome.16.To prevent headaches, watering eyes and blindness caused by glare from snow,dark glasses are .A. indispensableB. ineffectiveC. usefulD. ease the irritation17.

The amount of sleep 31 depends on the age of the person and the conditions in which sleep takes place. The young may need more sleep than the old, but 32 eight hours are enough for the health of grown-ups. Some can do with less than this amount, but 33 may need more. Every person knows his own need. It is then a matter of how to satisfy it. Sleep should be always enough to make one relaxed and ready for 34 work.Fresh air is necessary to sound sleep. It is not 35 reason for some people to insist that it is practical to sleep in the open air. 36 a person can keep himself warm, out-of-door sleeping probably gives the body 37 complete relaxation.Ability to sleep is largely a habit. The conditions referred to only lead to sleep-out-of-door exercises, a good habit of regular drinking and the avoidance of late eating and 38 are all helpful to sound sleep. Such factors are largely within the control of any person. A bath at 39 , neither hot nor cold but of body temperature, may be helpful to sleep.

She started talking and communicating in all three languages before she lost her sight but adapted quickly to her blindness. By the age of four, she was reading and writing in the Braille (盲文).

The girl is now learning German at school in Cambridge.Alexia has been longing to be an interpreter since she was six and she chose to go to the European Parliament as her prize when she won a young achiever of the year award.

The tone of the passage can be best described as ______.A. criticalB. admiringC. understandingD. doubtfulPassage TwoGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is essential to one’s life. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip. But for many people, the thought of food as the first thing in the morning is never a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast.Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures could be obtained, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast increased by 33%-from 8.8 million to 11.7 million—according to the Chicago-based Market Research corporation of America. For those who dislike eating breakfast, however, there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years have shown that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect work,”said Arnold E. Bender, former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve work.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better work is surprisingly inadequate (不充分的), and most of the recent work involves children, not adults. “The literature,” says one researcher, Dr. Earnest Polite at the University of Texas, “is poor.”40. Which of these is mentioned in the second paragraph?A. The number of the people who skip breakfast has increased.B. Many people fill their cars with gasoline in the morning.C. 8.8 million people got involved in a study on eating habits.D. A company carried out a research in 1983.A. Having breakfast does not improve work, either.B. Giving people breakfast improves work.C. Going without breakfast can improve work, too.D. Having breakfast does improve work.42. What does the word “literature” in the last sentence refer to?A. Modern American literature.B. Any printed materials.C. Written works on a subject.D. Stories, poems and plays.43. Which of the following statements best summarizes the writer’sconclusion about the function of breakfast?A. Omitting breakfast helps improve work.B. Eating breakfast is absolutely necessary.C. Scientists have produced sufficient evidence in support ofbreakfast.D. There isn’t strong evidence to prove that breakfast is a must.person.48. What can be learned from Paragraph 1?A. People from a mobile society dislike talking about personalaffairs.B. Short-term relationships are common in a mobile society.C. Americans tend to make more friends than people from othercultures.D. It is difficult for Americans and Australians to communicatewith strangers.49. Who do Malaysians prefer to start business with according tothe passage?A. Those who talk a lot about themselves.B. Those who they know well enough.C. Those who enjoy talking with strangers.D. Those who want to do business with them.50. Which of the following is true about the rules in “particular”societies?A. They change to fit different situations.B. People respect and obey them completely.C. They don’t exist.D. No one obeys them.51. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Polite behavior varies with different cultures.B. Less mobile societies have fewer rules.C. People from mobile societies are more polite.D. Cultural differences are important.Passage FiveClaude-Oscar Monet (1840-1926) was a French artist and a leading member of the Impressionist group of painters. Born in Paris, Monet spent his childhood in Le Havre. There he met a local artist, Eugene Boudin, who encouraged him to become a landscape painter.In 1859, Monet went to Paris to study at the Académie Suisse. Between 1860 and 1862, Monet served in the army in Algeria (阿尔及利亚). He returned to Paris where he met most of the major artists of the era.In 1870, Monet married Camille Doncieux. To escape the Franco-Prussian war, they moved to London. Back to France, they settled at Argenteuil, a boating centre on the Seine (塞纳河) which drew many other Impressionist painters. Working from nature was a particular symbol of the Impressionist movement, and one that Monet valued, reflecting in his paintings the ever-changing impact of light and weather conditions.In 1872, he visited Le Havre where he painted “An Impression, Sunrise”.When exhibited in 1874, part of its title was used by a critic to label the whole movement “Impressionism”.Monet’s wife died in 1879, and he set up home with Alice Hoschedé, the wife of one of his most important sponsors. During the 1880s, Monet travelled through France painting a variety of landscapes. He gradually became better known and for the last 30 years of his life he was regarded as the greatest of the Impressionists.From 1890 he began to paint a series (系列) of pictures of one subject, including “Haystacks”, “Rouen Cathedral”and “Waterlilies”, The latter were painted in the fine garden Monet created at his house at Giverny, where he lived from 1883 on. He painted them over and over again, most significantly in a series especially for a museum in Paris.52. Monet was introduced to art ______.A. by an artist in his childhoodB. by his father in Le HavreC. during his short stay in AlgeriaD. during his visit to Paris53. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Impressionism was born in London.B. Monet was one of the sponsors of Impressionism.C. Argenteuil was the birthplace of many impressionists.D. Impressionist paintings are mainly based on nature.54. What is said about the painting “An Impression, Sunrise”?A. It established Monet’s fame as an artist for the first time.B. It invited a lot of strong criticism from the public.C. It was painted by Monet and Eugene Boudin.D. It was the origin of the name “Impressionism”.55. What do we know about Monet’s life since 1890?A. He painted only for a museum in Paris.B. He devoted himself to travelling overseas.C. He was influenced by Alice in his painting style.D. He focused on paintings of a particular theme.V.

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Y ou should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents arc not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel freeto do something they've been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.61.Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because_____.A .they have to look after their kids B. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money62.In paragraph 2, “a way out” means ______.A. out of dateB. a solutionC. without questionD. a complaint63.According to the last paragraph, the solution to the problem of post-80s couples isthat _____ .A. families with kids form a small groupB. they ask their aging parents for helpC. they give up their jobsD. they lake their kids wherever they go64.What is( are) the advantage(s) of baby-pooling?A.The parents can have much more free time.B.The kids can make new friends.C.The kids won't be hanging around their parents all day long.D. All of the above.65.The passage mainly discusses_____ ?A. post-80s couples and their friendsB. post-80s couples and baby-poolingC. post-80s couples and their parentsD. kids and their grandparentsPassage2It is a terrible illustration of man ' s weakness to nature .and the tsunami(^^) that struck the Japanese coast in March. 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-warming systems, public education programs and evacuation( 拔散)strategics.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it's close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is lo get inland and to the higherground as quickly as possible.66.The first paragraph tells us that _____ .A.man can easily defeat the natureB.tsunamis take place only in JapanC.man's ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD.the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible67.To prevent tsunami-damage, the following measures can be taken EXCEPT______A.designing firm buildings 、B.developing early-warning systemsC.developing evacuation strategicsD.keeping the public unaware of the seriousness of tsunamis68.According to the passage , which of the following can cause a tsunami_____?A. Storms.B. Massive waves.C. Underwater earthquakes.D. Floods69.When a tsunami happens, the best course of action for people is to_____.A.listen to radio and television broadcasts for informationB.get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possibleC.stay where they areD.rely on the warning systemsPassage 3Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster,population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition (营养不良)and heal-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum's report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受伤害的)regions. Dr. Pielke said that “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention. “But the report, he said, ''will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的).”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic losses from climate change arc occurring in poor countries, according to the report.71. What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A. Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B.Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C.Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D.Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.72. What do we learn about the Forum's report from the passage?A.It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B.It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C.It was warmly received by environmentalists.D.It caused a big stir in developing countries.73.What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum's report?A.Its statistics look embarrassing.B.It is invalid in terms of methodology.C.It deserves our closest attention.D.Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.74.What is Soren Andreasen’s view of the report?A. Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B. It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C. It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D. Its rough estimates arc meant to draw the attention of world leaders.75. What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?A. How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B. How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C.How emissions of heat-trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D.How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.Passage 4Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland,where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best “my dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's municipal water for morethan a century was called the champagne of lap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for marketshare-this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's Dasani arc both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate(垂涎)over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brandsaren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sen bottled water.According toan article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottleson the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it’s sold, the popularity of bottled whaler taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76.What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A.lt is a kind of iced water.B.It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77.By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2),V on Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that_____?A .plain tap whaler is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC.bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD.dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78.The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to____.A.tap water from the Thames RiverB.famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC.PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's DasaniD.expensive bottled water with impressive names79.Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A. Bottled water brings in huge profits.B. Competition from the wine industry is intense.C. Most diners find bottled water affordable.D.Bottled water satisfied diners' desire to fashionable.80.According to passage, why is bottled whaler so popular?A. It is much cheaper than wine.B.It is considered healthier.C. lt appeals to more cultivated people.D. It is more widely promoted in the market.PartⅠ Translation ( 2 x 10 )Directions: There are 10 sentences in this section.

I run every morning and evening. What else can I do? ” Basically you can do nothing. Your genes, not your life habits, determine your weight and your body constantly tries to maintain it.How can obese (肥胖的 ) people become normal or even thin through dieting? Well, dieting can be effective, but the health costs are tremendous. Charles Steinmetz, a research physician at Duke University, did a study of ten fat people. They were given liquid formula providing 600 calories a day. After more than 12 weeks, the subjects lost 45kg on average. But after leaving the hospital. They all regained weight. The results were surprising: by metabolic(新陈代谢的 ) measurement, fat people who lost large amounts of weight seemed like they were starving. They dreamed of food or breaking their diet. They were anxious and depressed; some were suicidal. They hid food in their rooms. Researchers warn that it is possible that weight reduction doesn ’ t result in normal weight, but in an abnormal state resembling that of starved non-obese people.Thin people, however, suffer from the opposite: they have to make a greateffort to gain weight. William Simmons, of Washington State University, got prisonersto volunteer to gain weight. In four to six months, they eat as much as they could.They succeeded in increasing their weight by 20 to 25 percent. But months after the study ended they were back to normal weight and stayed there.This does not mean that people are completely without hope in controllingtheir weight. It means that those who tend to be fat will have to constantly battle their genetic inheritance if they want to significantly lower their weight. The findings also provide evidence for something scientists thought was true-----each person has a comfortable weight range (范围 ). The range might be as much as 9kg. Someonemight weigh 60-69kg without too much effort. But going above or below the natural weight range is difficult. The body resists by feeling hungry or full and changing the metabolism to push the weight back to the range it seeks.11.What determines your weight according to the first paragraph?A.Your working mannerB.Your eating habitC.Your life styleD.Your genes12.What did Charles Steinmetz do to the ten fat people in his research?A.He let them live only on liquid food.B.He let them skip breakfast.C.He let them run every morning and evening.D.He let them skip supper.13.What happened to the ten fat people after they left the hospital?A.They went mad.2B. They killed themselves.C. They were back to the original weightD. They attempted suicide.14. William Simmons made his subjects____.A. Battle their genetic inheritanceB. eat as much as they couldC. Suffer from hungerD. lower their weight15. What did scientists think was true?A. Each person wants to eat to his or her heart’ s content.B. Each person has a weight range of 9kg.C. Each person wants to control his or her height.D. Each person has a suitable weight range.Passage2Questions 16-20 are based on the following passageMany people believe the glare from snow causes snow blindness. Yet, wearing dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snow blindness, when exposed to several hours of“ snow light”.The Canadian Army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snow blindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather , a man’ seyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad expanse of barren snow-covered terrain. So his gaze continually shifts and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache. Nature offsets this irritation by producing more fluid which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity until vision blurs, then is obscured, and the result istotal, even though temporary, snow blindness .Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts, ahead of a main body of troops, are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape; even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark colored objects ahead on which they too can focus. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop scouring the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snow blind or lost .In this way the problem of crossing a solid white terrain is overcome.16. To prevent headaches,watering eyes and blindness caused by glare from snow,dark glasses are.A. indispensableB. ineffectiveC. usefulD. ease the irritation17. When the eyes ache, tears are produced to.A. loosen the musclesB. remedy snow blindnessC. clear the visionD. ease the irritation18. Snow blindness may be avoided by.3A. concentrating to the solid white terrainB. searching for something to look at in snow-covered terrainC. providing the eyes with something to focus onD. covering the eyeballs with fluid19. The scouts shake snow from evergreen bushes in order to.A. leave the men behind something to seeB. beautify the landscapeC. warm themselves in the coldD. prevent the men behind from losing their way20. A proper title for this passage would be.A. Snow Blindness and How to Overcome ItB. Nature’ s Cure for Snow BlindnessC. Soldiers in the SnowD.

Reading Comprehension ( 60 points)Directions:There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by fourquestions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Chooseone best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage oneI talk to strangers for a living and love the challenge of getting their stories published in newspapers.I've been married for years,but until six months ago,I could be a typical absent—minded husband.Often l was just nodding when l was supposed to.When my wife asked,“Did you even hear what I just said?”1 would defensively say,“of course I did!”In January,I began to lose my voice.Doctors told me I needed surgery,or my throat would be permanently damaged.Total silence would be required for the first few weeks of my recovery.Two hours after the surgery,my eyes filled with tears as mytwo-year-old son looked puzzled because l wouldn’t answer his questions.I wanted to talk but couldn’t.Luckily,I'd recorded myself reading some of his favorite books.That would come in handy the next couple of weeks.It had never left.I'd just stopped noticing.I found myself understanding her better on topics I'd previously dismissed as “things I just don’t get as a guy”.I also realized my son wasn’t just talkingnonstop but that he often had thoughtful things to say.Even while walking my dog in the woods near our home,I began hearing pleasant patterns in birdsongs.Before my surgery,I'd have spent those walks on my phone.After several weeks,I was fully recovered. Conversation in our house is better now,not because I'm talking more.I’m just listening better and becoming less and less surprised that I like what I hear.36题单选 According to the passage,the author is most likely a__________ .A.driverB.teacherC.doctorD.Journalist参考答案:D37题单选 What does the wife mean by asking “Did you even hear what I just said? ”in Paragraph 1 ?A.Yon should listen to me.B.You didn’t want to talk with me.C.You should tell me what I said just now.D.You didn’t have to nod while you were listening.参考答案:A38题单选 What is true of the author after the surgery?A.He was required to keep silent for the first few monthsB.He was worried about his recovery after the surgery.C.He was unable to communicate with his son.D.He was unwilling to talk to his wife.参考答案:C39题单选 What did the author realize after the surgery?A.His wife was a talkative woman.B.His house was full of pleasant talks.C.His son didn’t like talking.D.His dog liked pleasant birdsongs.参考答案:BPassage TwoCoconut(椰子)is an unusual food for many reasons.It is one of the largest edible seeds produced by any plant.Its unusual contents also make it unique in the seed world—it consists of both “meat“ and “water”inside.The coconut meat is the white substance with which we are all familiar,as it is used extensively for cooking and flavorings;the coconut water is a white and sweet liquid. Portuguese(葡萄牙的) explorers gave the nut its name in the l5th century, referring to it as coco,meaning “ghost” in their language.The outside appearance of coconuts reminded them of a ghost’s face,and the tree has had that name ever since.The coconut has varied uses.It is used to make various cooking oils for fast food restaurants around the world to make diet materials.The coconut fluid is a favorite drink in hot climates,providing a cool and refreshing beverage right off the tree.This water is also used by manufacturers of various sports drinks.Even the shell itself has many uses,including animal food and fertilizer.And all these are only some of the uses found for the coconut fruit.The coconut tree, which produces the nut,also produces many useful things.It’s no wonder that the coconut tree has been taken as “the tree of life”.40题单选 What does the underlined word“edible’in Paragraph 1 mean?A.Visible.B.Collectible.C.AvailableD.Eatable.参考答案:D41题单选 The coconut got its name because of __________ .A.its hard shellB.its white colorC.its ghostlike appearanceD.its round shape参考答案:C42题单选 What is the passage mainly about?A.The history of coconut.es of coconut.C.The discovery of coconut.D.Types of coconut seeds参考答案:B43题单选 What can be learned from the passage?A.Coconut trees are useful plants.B.Coconut oil is rare and expensive.C.Coconut trunks are houses for birds.D.Coconut fluid can become fertilizer.参考答案:APassage ThreeMost students choose “Homestay” accommodation when they study abroad:others select Homestay even if they are not on a study visit.Statistics show that it’s a form of accommodation gaining in popularity all the time.But what is Homestay? And what makes it so popular?Homestay means living with a family,or“host family”as we say.There are three ways of doing it:choose to learn English in a language school near to your Homestay location:have your English classes in the house with a member of the family who is a qualified teacher; select not to have classes at all when you visit——a popular choice if you want to do the tourist thing for example.Even in their busy summer period the organizations that arrange the Homestays will always try to place you with the most suitable host family to match your requirements.Placement(安置)organizations think about location,interests,language level,eating requirements,allergies (过敏)and other requests you may have.Though prices vary according to your needs,good quality Homestay accommodation can be relatively economical--and although you may be charged an extra amount of money if you want your Homestay in or near the city center.Even if you stay further out,you can expect your journey into the center not to exceed 30 minutes.Not only does Homestay accommodation represent value for money, it also gives you an excellent opportunity to practice English with your host family.This is a very important extra for students who like to speak as much English as possible. But if you plan to learn English,why not have your English classes in your host family. There’s no better way to learn English than this—the perfect combination of learning and accommodation combined with the cultural experience !44题单选 Homestay is an ideal choice for students who __________ .A.plan to visit relativesB.want to stay at homeC.plan to study overseasD.want to learn statistics参考答案:C45题单选 Who will consider students’requirements before their Homestay starts?A.The English teacher.B.The placement organization.C.The host family.D.The language school.参考答案:B46题单选 Which of the following is a key factor affecting the price of Homestay?A.Nationality of the host family.B.Eating habits of the host family.C.Students’language level.D.Students’specific needs.参考答案:D47题单选 What can be inferred from the passage?A.The author is in favor of Homestay accommodation.B.The author is doubtful about the safety of Homestay.C.The author finds Homestay arrangement complicated.D.The author finds Homestay accommodation expensive.参考答案:APassage FourUsing 1ess energy around the home is easier than you might think,saving you money while creating a heathier,more comfortable living space for you and your family. Changing a few old habits can make an impact on your energy bill, your comfort and the environment. Here are some handy tips to make your house more energy-efficient. Lower the heat If your home has adjustable central heating,lowering the room temperature even slightly can make a difference. You may not feel it,but your wallet will. It is even more advisable to control temperatures at different times of the day.Hang clothes out to dryIf the weather allows it,head outside and dry your laundry on a clothesline. The sunlight will help eliminate bacteria and dust. While clothes dryers get the job done faster,they also use up energy.By hanging your clothes out you’ll be cutting greenhouse gases by about three kilograms per load.Take advantage of natural lightInstalling large windows on the northern side of your house can help you make use of sunlight’s natural warmth. To stay cool indoors on hot summer days,install blinds(百叶窗) to block the heavy sun.Put your desk near the window,then you don’t need a lamp in the daytime.Wrap(裹)your pipesBe sure your hot—water pipes are properly wrapped.In an average home,heating wateraccounts for more than one—quarter of the energy bill.Why let warmth go to waste before it reaches you?Choose the right size for appliances(家用电器)When the time comes to replace appliances,select those that are both energy—efficient and of the appropriate size for your needs.Don’t buy bigger ones just because you can.48题单选 What benefit may using less energy at home bring about?A.Having a healthier living environment.B.Improving your work efficiency.C.Keeping old habits unchanged.D.Enlarging your living space.参考答案:A49题单选 Which of the following is one of the advantages of hanging clothes out to dry?A.It may help to build a greenhouse.B.It helps remove bacteria in clothes.C.It uses half the energy that clothes dryers do.D.It gets clothes dry much faster than clothes dryers.参考答案:B50题单选 What can be installed on the northern side of your house to make better use of natural light?A.Blinds.B.Curtains.C.Windows.D.Shades.参考答案:C51题单选 Besides energy-efficiency,what else should be considered when replacing appliances?A.Replacing time.B.Reasonable price.C.Good quality.D.Proper size.参考答案:DPassage FiveAs we recently discovered,there is a Stepmother’s Day,though it is not on any official holiday calendar.So,it would be safe to assume that there is a similar day for stepdads,too.Right? Well,it depends on what you read.A Google search brought up posts that say,for example,“It’s on father’s day--father’s day is for fathers,step—fathers and people who are like fathers to you-it’s a day for making father figures feel special.”Further searching found a Stepfather’s Day Facebook page that says,“The unofficial Stepfather’s Day is the fourth Sunday of June.”Unfortunately,as of the publishing of this article,only 30 people have “liked” the page.Considering that studies show 3.3 million men,or 11.1%of U.S.fathers,live with at least one stepchild,that’s only a drop in the ocean.It’s interesting to note that there is a National Grandparents’Day.President Jimmy Carter signed it into law in w! While grandparents are undoubtedly special people in our children’s lives,they are often seen as the most loving family members.But what about the stepparents? The stepparents are the ones who are often the outsiders,the ones who have to endure the hurtful “You’re not my dad!” or “You’re not my mom!” And yet they never give up.They do their best to overcome the inherent challenges of stepparents and be role models for their stepchildren.These unsung(未被颂扬的)family heroes deserve “official” days of honor.Perhaps if we are loud enough,President Obama,who had a stepfather himself,will sign into law National Stepmother’s Day and National Stepfather’s Day.Are you with me? Follow me and get your voice heard.How cool it would be if we could make this happen!52题单选 What does the underlined word“that’’in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.Father figures who are equally honored in the U.S.B.30 people who support Stepfather’s Day on the Facebook page.C.3.3 million men who live with at least one stepchild in the world.D.11.1%of U.S.fathers who live with at least one stepchild in the U.S.参考答案:B53题单选 What did President Jimmy Carter sign into law in 1978 ?A.The National Grandparents’Day.B.The National Grandchildren’s Day.C.The National Stepparents’Day.D.The National Stepchildren’s Day.参考答案:A54题单选 Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “inherent”in paragraph 2 ?.A.Unbelievable.B.Toughsting.D.Inevitable.参考答案:D55题单选 What is the reason for setting an official holiday for stepparents?A.Because they love their role as stepparents.B.Because they are often treated as heroes in the family.C.Because they deserve respect and honor as family members.D.Because they are often seen as the most loving family members。

"The other interpreters were amazed at how well she did as the debate was quite complicated and many of the words were rather technical."Alexia has been tri-lingual since birth as her mother, a teacher, is half French and half Spanish, while her father, Richard, is English. She started talking and communicating in all three languages before she lost her sight but adapted quickly to her blindness. By the age of four, she was reading and writing in Braille(盲文). When she was six, Alexia began to learn Chinese. The girl is now learning German at school in Cambridge.Alexia has been longing to be an interpreter since she was six and she chose to go to the European Parliament as her prize when she won a young achiever of the year award. She asked if she could shadow interpreters and Mr. Sturdy agreed to take her along as his guest.Alexia worked with the head of interpreting and had a real taste of life in parliament. "It was fantastic and I'm absolutely determined now to become an interpreter," she said.21 What does the passage tell about Alexia Sloane?(A)She is very proud of her parents.(B)She has learned five foreign languages.(C)She is a quick learner of languages.(D)She has difficulties with language learning.22 Why did Alexia need special permission to enter the parliament building? (A)She was not in a state of good health.(B)She could not afford the admission fees.(C)She did not meet the age requirement.(D)She did not have an adult to accompany her.23 What did Alexia want to do after she got the award?(A)To travel to other European countries.(B)To visit the European Parliament.(C)To apply for a position in the government.(D)To study German at Cambridge University.24 The tone of the passage can be best described as______.(A)critical(B)admiring(C)understanding(D)doubtful24 Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is essential to one's life. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip. But for many people, the thought of food as the first thing in the morning is never a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast.Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures could be obtained, the number of people who didn't have breakfast increased by 33%—from 8.8 million to 11.7 million—according to the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation of America. For those who dislike eating breakfast, however, there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years have shown that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. "Going without breakfast does not affect work," said Arnold E. Bender, former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, " <u>nor does giving people breakfast improve work.</u> " Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better work is surprisingly inadequate(不充分的 ),and most of the recent work involves children, not adults. "The literature," says one researcher, Dr. Earnest Polite at the University of Texas, "is poor."25 Which of these is mentioned in the second paragraph?(A)The number of the people who skip breakfast has increased.(B)Many people fill their cars with gasoline in the morning.(C)8. 8 million people got involved in a study on eating habits.(D)A company carried out a research in 1983.26 Which is closest in meaning to the underlined part?(A)Having breakfast does not improve work, either.(B)Giving people breakfast improves work.(C)Going without breakfast can improve work, too.(D)Having breakfast does improve work.27 What does the word "literature" in the last sentence refer to?(A)Modern American literature.(B)Any printed materials.(C)Written works on a subject.(D)Stories, poems and plays.28 Which of the following statements best summarizes the writer's conclusion about the function of breakfast?(A)Omitting breakfast helps improve work.(B)Eating breakfast is absolutely necessary.(C)Scientists have produced sufficient evidence in support of breakfast.(D)There isn't strong evidence to prove that breakfast is a must.28 When you stretch out in the sun you can do one of the three things: you can use no sun tan oil, an ordinary sun tan oil; or Bergasol.If you don't use any sun tan oil when you're in the sun, you will burn surprisingly quickly. If you use an ordinary sun tan oil, you will protect your skin to a lesser or greater degree. How much protection depends on the "protection-factor number" on the bottle. Some oils block out so many of the sun's rays and you can stay in the sun all day without burning— but you won't go very brown, either.Bergasol will protect your skin like an ordinary sun tan oil. It also has a tan accelerator that speeds up the rate at which the sun activates the skin cells that produce melanin (黑色素). It is melanin that gives the skin its brown colour. Bergasol enables you to go brown faster, and as the days pass the difference will become more obvious.Unfortunately, this special formulation isn't cheap to prepare. So Bergasol is rather more expensive than ordinary sun tan oil. However, the price looks more attractive as you do.BergasolIt makes you go brown fasterProtectionMany people imagine that "cover-up" means you don't get a tan. Nothing to show for your holiday.Not so. With "cover-up", you can get brown if you want to. The point of "cover-up" is to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sun which, according to theexperts ,make your skin look older.That's what Solex Cover-up is all about— protection for your skin. It has a Sun Protection Factor 8, which makes it suitable for anyone. Find out how it works for you by consulting the Solex Sun Chart. On sale -wherever Solex is.With Solex Cover-up, you can tan as slowly as you like. As gently as you like. And with much less chance of peeling. Your tan will look better. Your skin will stay young longer.SolexGentle tan... full protection29 What can we learn from the second advertisement?(A)It is easy to get a suntan in summer.(B)Suntan is regarded as a sign of protection.(C)Sunlight could make one look older.(D)Everyone wants to get a suntan from holiday.30 Why is Solex suitable for everyone?(A)Its price is more attractive.(B)It can be used to relieve sunbura(C)It can make the skin cells more active.(D)It has a mild protection factor.31 Compared with Solex,Bergasol______.(A)helps one go brown more quickly(B)better protects one's skin(C)is more competitive in price(D)is a better sun tan oil32 What is the most attractive feature of Solex Cover-up?(A)It helps one get a more beautiful tan.(B)It is often on sale in supermarkets.(C)It blocks out more sun's rays than other oils.(D)It helps one tan gradually and gently.32 Ideas about polite behaviour differ from one culture to another. Some societies, such as America and Australia, for example, are mobile and very open. People here change jobs and move house quite often. As a result, they have a lot of relationships that often last only a short time, and they need to get to know people quickly. So it's normal to have friendly conversations with people that they have just met, and you can talk about things that other cultures would regard as personal.On the other hand, there are more crowded and less mobile societies where long-term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person, for example,will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger from a less mobile society puts it, it's no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you don't want to answer.Cross-cultural differences aren't just a problem for travelers, but also for people in daily life. Some societies have "universalist" cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way. " Particularist" (强调特性的) societies also have rules, but they are less important than the society's unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.33 What can be learned from Paragraph 1?(A)People from a mobile society dislike talking about personal affairs.(B)Short-term relationships are common in a mobile society.(C)Americans tend to make more friends than people from other cultures.(D)It is difficult for Americans and Australians to communicate with strangers.34 Who do Malaysians prefer to start business with according to the passage?(A)Those who talk a lot about themselves.(B)Those who they know well enough.(C)Those who enjoy talking with strangers.(D)Those who want to do business with them.35 Which of the following is true about the rules in "particularist" societies?(A)They change to fit different situations.(B)People respect and obey them completely.(C)They don't exist.(D)No one obeys them.36 What is the main idea of this passage?(A)Polite behaviour varies with different cultures.(B)Less mobile societies have fewer rules.(C)People from mobile societies are more polite.(D)Cultural differences are important.36 Claude-Oscar Monet (1840 — 1926) was a French artist and a leading member of the Impressionist group of painters. Born in Paris, Monet spent his childhood in Le Havre. There he met a local artist, Eugene Boudin, who encouraged him to become a landscape painter.In 1859, Monet went to Paris to study at the Academie Suisse. Between 1860 and 1862, Monet served in the army in Algeria (阿尔及利亚). He returned to Paris where he met most of the major artists of the era.In 1870, Monet married Camille Doncieux. To escape the Franco-Prussian war, they moved to Londoa Back to France, they settled at Argenteuil, a boating centre on the Seine ( 塞纳河) which drew many other Impressionist painters. Working from nature was a particular symbol of the Impressionist movement, and one that Monet valued, reflecting in his paintings the ever-changing impact of light and weather conditions.In 1872, he visited Le Havre where he painted "An Impression, Sunrise". When exhibited in 1874, part of its title was used by a critic to label the whole movement "Impressionism".Monet's wife died in 1879, and he set up home with Alice Hoschede, the wife of one of his most important sponsors. During the 1880s, Monet traveled through France painting a variety of landscapes. He gradually became better known and for the last 30 years of his life he was regarded as the greatest of the Impressionists.From 1890 he began to paint a series (系列) of pictures of one subject, including "Haystacks" "Rouen Cathedral" and "Waterlilies". The latter were painted in the fine garden Monet created at his house at Giverny, where he lived from 1883 on. He painted them over and over again, most significantly in a series especially for a museum in Paris.37 Monet was introduced to art______.(A)by an artist in his childhood(B)by his father in Le Havre(C)during his short stay in Algeria(D)during his visit to Paris38 Which of the following is true according to the passage?(A)Impressionism was born in London.(B)Monet was one of the sponsors of Impressionism.(C)Argenteuil was the birthplace of many impressionists.(D)Impressionist paintings are mainly based on nature.39 What is said about the painting "An Impression, Sunrise"?(A)It established Monet's fame as an artist for the first time.(B)It invited a lot of strong criticism from the public.(C)It was painted by Monet and Eugene Boudin.(D)It was the origin of the name "Impressionism".40 What do we know about Monet's life since 1890?(A)He painted only for a museum in Paris.(B)He devoted himself to traveling overseas.(C)He was influenced by Alice in his painting style.(D)He focused on paintings of a particular theme.四、Part IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the following passages.

Reading Comprehension (45 points)Section A (30 Points,2 for each)Directions: There are three passages in this part .Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements .For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best . ONE and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET . Question 51-55 are based on the following passage :China has the largest population in the word . Though we have made great achievements in economic development ,huge population has wiped out the material benefits we have gained. Therefore , it has been quite necessary for China to implement family planning policy ,After more than 30 years efforts ,we have brought down the growth rate of population . But does it mean that single-child policy is the the best policy forever? The answer is negative . The reasons are as follow:Firstly , single-child policy is not effective in the countryside and has the risk of quality . More and more couples in large modern cities quit the idea of raising a child mainly due to the pressure from life .They adopt childless policy which results in the negative increase of population in such cities as Shanghai and Beijing . And at the same time , some people from rural areas try to escape from family planning policy and have more children by using any means , which will lead to the decrease of population quality .Secondly , it has caused other problems concerning the quality of children . Most children nowadays are treasured as the apple in their parents’ eye . Parents extend excessive care and love to them . Children under such circumstances are likely to become selfish, arrogant and spoilt. They have poor sense of independence. This is harmful to the development of children’s character and personality.Finally, it increases the burden of young in taking care of their aging parents. Most young couples have to take care of four old persons, including parents and parents-in-law. Meanwhile, it adds to the seriousness of aging problems,Being rather busy with their work,most of the young people do not have enough time and energy to take of their old parents.51.Why is it quite necessary for China to implement family planning policy?A.China has made great achievements in economic development.rge population has wiped out the material benefits we have gained.C.Single-child policy is forever the best policy.D.China has brought down the growth rate of population.52.Which of the following statements is NOT the bad effect of single-child policy?A.It is risky for population quality.B.It decreases the growth rate of population.C.It increases the seriousness of the aging problem.D.It is h armful to the development of children’s character and personality.53.What does the underlined word arrogant mean in paragraph 3?A.ModesB.KindC. CautiousD.Self-conceited54. Single-child policy adds to the seriousness of aging problem because _____.A.most young couples do not have enough time and energy to take care of their old parentsB.Parents always show to much care and love to their childrenC.Most children nowadays are treasured as the apple in parents’eyeD.more and more couples in large modern cities quit the idea of raising a child55.
