I live in Berlin, but I was born i n the south of Italy. We moved here from Italy when I was 14 because of my father’s work. I’m half German, half Italian. I started working in the family business a few years ago –we have a jeweller’s shop. I work in the shop every afternoon except Sundays, but it’s a bit boring. The city is OK but I never have time to enjoy it –everything is so hectic. I often miss Italy.RashidMy name’s Rashid. I’m 24 and I live in London. I’m Indian, but I was born here in the UK. My parents came here from Bombay (we call it Mumbai now) at the end of the 1960s. London’s a great place to be for me because I study architecture and there are lots of interesting buildings around. Every day I see something new. I don’t want to live anywhere else.LindaMy name’s Linda. I’m 25 and live in a small town outside Vancouver. My mother is Spanish and my father comes from Lagos in Nigeria. We speak English, French and Spanish at home. I work as a teacher in the local school.

I really like the town I live in, although it’s very cold in winter.

I didn’t have any money, so I was really pleased to get an office job… but it was very boring! I gave it up and went to do voluntary work for the VSO – V oluntary Service Overseas –in Rwanda. I teach old people and children to read and write. It’s not the most comfortable of jobs but it’s great to be doing something of real use for once.AndyI used to be a freelance news journalist. It was very stressful and I had to travel a lot. I applied for loads of other jobs with no success, so I started to think about my real interest – football! Now, I work from home and write football articles for press agencies around the world. It’s a full-time job but I have much more free time. I’m my own boss and I can get up when I want!EmmaI used to be a teacher and I worked 40 hours a week. Then, I saw the movie American Beauty and thought I could change my life too! I did a course in acupuncture and shiatsumassage. I took four years to get qualified but now I have set up my own business.

In the evening, we will go to the Bairro Alto area for dinner and to hear the wonderfully melancholy fado music.SATURDAY 20th JuneA day of contrasts. In the morning, a trip to the oldest neighbourhood, Alfama. Its little cobbled streets are charming but it is also one of the poorest parts of the city. We will have lunch in the central Praça do Comércio and then take the metro to the modern Parque das Nações — the site of the Expo, which has some stunning architecture. In the evening, you are free to enjoy whatever part of the city you wish.SUNDAY 21st JuneA coach will take us out of the city to visit Sintra, summer residence of the kings of Portugal.

A cup of cocoa before going to bed or a Mars bar on the bus – the British are obsessed with it. The average Briton eats 10kg of chocolate a year. Women eat far more chocolate than men, an amazing 67% of total chocolate consumption. And the most popular snack is KitKat – fifty are eaten every second in the UK.Chocoholics are people with a chocolate obsession. But are they addicts? Not according to recent research. This shows that chocolate is not as addictive as coffee – in fact,there is no proof thatchocolate creates addiction at all. And it’s a lot better for you than we thought. Some scientists say that it releases the same chemicals that your body produces when you are in love. Now that can’t be a bad thing!Some more good news –it doesn’t raise your cholesterol level or give you acne, as people believe, and it can even be good for your teeth! It does, however, contain caffeine and is bad if you get headaches. So the least sensible time to eat it is at night.The British love chocolate but they are not as obsessed as the Swiss. The Swiss are officially the world’ greatest chocolate eaters – but then Swiss chocolate is the best!1Women buy less chocolate than men.2There is evidence that chocolate is addictive.3Chocolate contains caffeine.4You should avoid chocolate if you suffer from migraines.5The world’s greatest chocolate eaters are the British.Key: FFTTF5.From: U8L3 P121Found Safe and SoundThe monkey who escaped from Bristol Zoo last weekend was discovered by school children yesterday.

Lucy loves new technology. She owns a games console, an MP3 player, and a mobile phone with a built-in digital camera. David is a teacher. Lucy is his student.Like Lucy, many children grow up using computers almost every day and often know more about technology than adults. Educator Marc Prensky calls children like Lucy “digital natives”. Digital natives can quickly learn how to use new gadgets and new software, while non-digital natives spend a lot of time reading manuals and worrying about computer viruses. In fact, many parents try to save time by asking their children to teach them how to use new technology!The divide between digital natives and non-digital natives can cause problems at school because students and teachers grow up with very different ideas about technology. Many teachers think that playing computer games is a waste of time and that technology has made children unable to concentrate. However, many students think their classes are slow and boring, and want to use computers to study.Prensky believes that digital natives have learned a lot from technology, but that they learn things in a different way. For example, reading a website is different from reading a book, so digital natives are good at finding the information they need and choosing what they want to read. So perhaps teachers need to change the way they teach and use more technology in class – because the number of digital natives will keep increasing!1 David is a digital native.2 Marc Prensky is interested in teaching with technology.3 Digital natives are comfortable using laptops and flash drives.4 Many teachers think computer games are only for having fun or killing time.5 People read books and websites in the same way.Key: FTTTF7.From: U10L2 P153SpanglishIn which city can you read signs like “Aparca your car aquí” or “Cuidado con los pickpockets”? Travelguide investigates.1.2 million Hispanics live in the Big Apple and one in five New Yorkers speaks Spanish at home. In the last ten years, the Hispanic population has grown by 400 000. This reflects the enormousincrease in the Hispanic population in the States. There are now 42 million Hispanics resident in the USA, representing 15% of the total population.There is a new language, SPANGLISH –a strange mixture of Spanish and English –which is invading the city. The New York Times r ecently said that it had become the city’s third official language. Its use is colloquial and often limited to short sentences and signs. Many New Yorkers now wear socketines on their feet, drop something on the carpeta, shop for grocerias and have cornfley(“cornflakes”) for breakfast.Norma Rodríguez, a 45-year-old Cuban living in Washington Heights, says it forms a part of her life now: “Sometimes, you don’t realize that you’re mixing the two languages. You just hear them both all the time and find that you’re inventing new words.” Other people, however, are fighting against this new street language. Businessman Juan Cortés sees it as a sign that the Spanish language is being destroyed. “It’s difficult, but I try not to speak it –it feels vulgar to me.”Meanwhile, a surprising number of academics have spoken in favour of Spanglish. José María Ruiz, from NY State University, even runs courses in Spanglish and has written a dictionary. “It is a dialogue between two languages and cultures. We have to accept that languages change and evolve. The only languages that never change are dead ones.”1 The Spanish-speaking population has grown very fast recently.2 More people are interested in studying Spanish than before.3 Spanglish is mainly used in formal contexts.4 Norma Rodríguez doesn’t notice when she is speaking Spanglish.5 Juan Cortés doesn’t speak Spanglish because he feels stupid when he tries.Key: TTFTF(2)阅读选择题(7篇)Reading: Read the article and choose the best choice for each question.1.From: U1L2 P10London:Melting Pot of CulturesDid you know that London is one of the most multicultural cities in the world? Here, there are about 300 different cultures living side by side. Forget tea and sandwiches, now it is more common for a Londoner to drink ca ppuccino for breakfast, and eat Thai food for lunch in the local pub. Let’s see how life has changed in Britain’s capital.A IndiaMost people from India arrived in London in the 1950s and 60s. Now there is a strong Asian presence here –in the shops, mar kets and, of course, the restaurants. In fact, curry is Britain’s favorite takeaway meal. A typical family has a curry every two weeks, either delivered or bought ready-made from the supermarket. Indian people live all over London.

Technology, the application of knowledge for practical ends, is a major source of social change.Yet we would do well to remind ourselves that technology is a human creation; it docs not exist naturally. A spear or a robot is as much a cultural as a physical object. Until humans use a spear to hunt game or a robot to produce machine parts, neither is much more than a solid mass of matt er. For a bird looking for an object on which to res t, a spear or robot serves the purpose equally well. The explosion of the Challenger space shuttle and the Russian nuclear accident at Chernobyl drive home the human quality of technology; they provide cases in which well planned systems suddenly went haywire and there was no ready hand to set them right・ Since technology is a human creation, we are responsible for what is done with it. Pessimists worry that we will use out technology eventually to blow our world and ourselves to pieces. But they have been saying this for decades, and so far we have managed to survive and even flourish. Whet her we will continue to do so in the years ahead remains uncertain. Clearly, the impact of technology on our lives deserves a closer examination.Few technological developments have had a greater impact on our lives than the computer revolution. Scientists and engineers have designed specialized machines that can do the tasks that once only people could do. There are those who assert that the switch to an information-based economy is in the same camp as other great historical milestones, particularly the industrial Revolution. Yet when we ask why the industrial Revolution was a revolution, we find that it was not the machines. The primary reason why it was revolutionary is that it led to great social change. It gave rise to mass production and, through mass production, to a society in which wealth was not confined to the few.In somewhat similar fashion, computers promise to revolutionize the structure of American life, particularly as they free the human mind and open new possibilities in knowledge and communication. The industrial Revolution suppiemented and replaced the muscles of humans and animals by mechanical methods. The computer extends this development to supplement and replace some aspects of the mind of human beings by electronic methods. It is the capacity of the computer for solving problems and making decisions that represents its greatest potential and that pees the greatest difficulties in predicting the impact on society.1.A spear or a robot has the quality of technology only when it ______ C _____ •A)is used both as a cultural and a physical objectB)serves different purposes equally wellC)is ut订ized by manD)can be of use to both man and animal2.The examples of the Challenger and Chernobyl cited by the author serveto show that ______ D ____ •A)if not given close examination, technology could be used to des troy our worldB)technology is a human creation, so we are responsible for itC)technology usually goes wrong, if not controlled by manD)being a human creation, technology is liable to error3.According to the author, the introduction of the computer is arevolution mainly because ________ D ____ •A)the computer has revolutionized the workings of the human mindB)the computer can do the tasks that could only be done by people beforeC)it has helped to switch to an information technologyD)it has a great potential impact on society4.By using the phrase "the human quality of technology” , the authorrefers to, the fact that technology ________ B ____ •A)has a great impact on human lifeB)has some characteristics of human natureC)can replace some aspects of the human mindD)does not exist in the natural world5.The passage is based on the author,s ________ A _____ •A)keen insight into the nature of technologyB)prejudiced criticism of the role of the industrial RevolutionC)cautious analysis of the replacement of the human mind by computersD)exaggerated description of the negative consequences of technologyPassage 2Imagine a world in which there was suddenly no emotion-a world in which human beings could feel no love or happiness, no terror or hate. Try to imagine the consequences of such a transformation. People might not be able to stay alive: knowing neither joy nor pleasure, anxiety nor fear, they would be as likely to repeat acts that hurt them as acts that were beneficial. They could not learn: they could not benefit from experience because this emotionless world would lack rewards and punishments> Society would soon disappear: people would be as likely to harm one another as to provide help and support. Human relationships would not exist: in a world without friends or enemies, there could be no marriage, affection among companions, or bonds among members of groups. Society,s economic underpinnings (支柱)would be destroyed: since earning $10 million would be no more pleasant than earning $10, there would be no incentive to work. In fact, there would be no incentives of any kind. For as we will see, incentives imply a capacity to enjoy them.In such a world, the chances that the human species would survive are next to zero, because emotions are the basic instrument of our survival and adaptation. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways. As individuals, we categorize objects on the basis of our emotions. True we consider the length, shape, size, or texture, but an object' s physical aspects are less important than what it has done or can do to us 一hurt us, surprise us, anger us or make us joyful. We al so use categorizations colored by emotions in our families, communities, and overall society. Out of our emotional experiences with objects and events comes a social feeling of agreement that certain things and actions are good and others are bad, and we apply these categories to every aspect of our social life一from what foods we eat and what clothes we wear to how we keep promises and which people our group will accept. In fact, society exploits our emotional reactions and attitudes, such as loyalty morality, pride shame, guilt,fear and greed, in order to maintain itself It gives high rewards to individuals who perform important tasks such as surgery, makes heroes out of individuals for unusualor dangerous achievements such as flying fighter planes in a war, and uses the legal penal (刑法的)system to make people afraid to engage in antisocial acts.6.The reason why people might not be able to stay alive in a world withoutemotion is that _______ B ___ •A)they would not be able to tell the texture of objectsB)they would not know what was beneficial and what was harmful to themC)they would not be happy with a life without loveD)they would do things that hurt each other" s feelings7.According to the passage, people,s learning activities are possiblebecause they ______ C ____ •A)believe that emotions are fundamental for them to stay aliveB)benefit from providing help and support to one anotherC)enjoy being rewarded for doing the right thingD)know what is vital to the progress of society8.It can be inferred from the passage that the economic foundation ofsociety is dependent on _______ C ____ •A)the ability to make moneyB)the will to work for pleasureC)the capacity to enjoy incentivesD)the categorizations of our emotional experiences9.Emotions are significant for man, s survival and adaptation because____ B ____ .A)they provide the means by which people view the size or shape of objectsB)they are the basis for the social feeling of agreement by which society is maintainedC)they encourage people to perform dangerous achievementsD)they generate more love than hate among people10.The emotional aspects of an object are more important than its physical aspects in that they ________________________ A _____ .A)help society exploit its members for profitB)encourage us to perform important tasksC)help to perfect the legal and penal systemD)help us adapt our behavior to the world surrounding usPassage 3It is pretty much a one-way street. While it may be common for university researchers to try their luck in the commercial world, there is very littletraffic in the opposite direction. Pay has always been the biggest deterrent, as people with families often feel they cannot afford the drop in salary when moving to a university job. For some industrial scientists, however, the attractions of academia outweigh any financial considerations.Helen Lee took a 70% cut in salary when she moved from a senior post in Abbott Laboratories to a medical department at the University of Cambridge. Her main reason for returning to academia mid-career was to take advantage of thegreater freedom to choose research questions. Some areas of inquiry have few prospects of a commercial return, and Lee' s is one of them.The impact of a salary cut is probably less severe for a scientist in the early st ages of a career. Guy Gra nt, now a research associate at the Unilever Centre for Molecular Informatics at the University of Cambridge, spent two years working for a pharmaceutical (制药的) company before returning to university as a post-doctoral researcher. He took a 30% salary cut but felt it worthwhile for the greater intellectual opportunities.Higher up the ladder, where a pay cut is usually more significant, the demand for scien ti sts with a we a 1th of experience in indus try is forcing universities to make the transition (转换)to academia more attractive, according to Lee. Industrial scientists tend to receive training that academics do not, such as how to build a multidisciplinary tearn, manage budgets and negotiate contracts. They are also well placed to bring some thing extra to the t eaching side of an academic role that will help students get a job when they graduate, says Lee, perhaps experience in manufacturing practice or product development. "Only a small number of undergraduates will continue in an academic career. So someone leaving university who already has the skills needed to work in an industrial lab has far more potential in the job market than someone who has spent all their time on a narrow research project. ”11.By "a one-way street v (Line 1, Para. 1), the author means_ c __ .A.university researchers know little about the commercial worldB.there is little exchange between industry and academiaC.few industrial scientists would quit to work in a universityD.few university professors are willing to do industrial research12.The word ^deterrent” (Line 2, Para. 1) most probably refers tosome thing tha t ___ A ____ •A.keeps someone from taking actionB. helps to move the trafficC.attracts people' s attentionD.brings someone a financial burden13.What was Helen Lee' s major consideration when she changed her job in the middle of her career? BA.Flexible work hours.B. Her research interests.C.Her preference for the lifestyle on campus•D.Prospects of academic accomplishments.14.Guy Grant chose to work as a researcher at Cambridge in order to_D _______ .A.do financially more rewarding workB.raise his status in the academic worldC.enrich his experience in medical researchD.exploit better intellectual opportunities15.What contribution can industrial scientists make when they come to teach in a university? AA.Increase its graduates, competitiveness in the job market.B.Develop its students' potential in research.C.Help it to obtain financial support from industry.D.Gear its research towards practical applications.Passage 4Everybody loves a fat pay rise. Yet pleasure at your own can vanish if you learn that a colleague has been given a bigger one. Indeed, if he has a reputation for slacking, you might even be outraged. Such behavior is regarded as "all too human” , with the underlying assumption that other animals would not be capable of this finely developed sense of grievance. But a study by Sarah Brosnan and Frans de Waal of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, which has just been published in Nature, suggests that it is all too monkey, as well.The researchers studied the behavior of female brown capuchin monkeys. They look cute. They are good~natured, co~operative creatures, and they share their food readily. Above all, like their female human counterparts, they tend to pay much closer attention to the value of u goods and services” than males.Such characteristics make them perfect candidates for Dr. Brosnans and Dr. de Waal' s study> The researchers spent two years teaching their monkeys to exchange tokens for food. Normally, the monkeys were happy enough to exchange pieces of rock for slices of cucumber. However, when two monkeys were placed in separate but adjoining chambers, so that each could observe what the other was getting inreturn for its rock, their behavior became markedly different・In the world of capuchins grapes are luxury goods (and much preferable to cucumbers). So when one monkey was handed a grape in exchange for her token, the second was reluctant to hand hers over for a mere piece of cucumber. And if one received a grape without having to provide her to ken in exchange at all, the ot her eit her to ssed her own to ken at the researcher or out of the chamber, or refused to accep t the slice of cucumber. Indeed, the mere presence of a grape in the other chamber (without an actual monkey to eat it) was enough to induce resentment in a female capuchin.The researches suggest that capuchin monkeys, like humans, are guided by social emotions. In the wild, they are a co-operative, group living species. Such co-operation is likely to be stable only when each animal feels it is not being cheated. Feelings of righteous indignation, it seems, are not the preserve of people alone. Refusing a lesser reward completely makes these feelings abundantly clear to other members of the group. However, whether such a sense of fairness evolved independently in capuchins and humans, or whether it stems form the common ancestor that the species had 35 million years ago, is, as yet, an unanswered question.16.In the opening paragraph, the author introduces his topic by BA.posing a contrast.B. making a comparisonC. justifying an assumption.D. explaining a phenomenon17.The statement "it is all too monkey” (Last line, paragraph 1)implies that . BA.monkeys are also outraged by slack rivals.B.resenting unfairness is also monkeys' nature.C.monkeys, like humans, tend to be jealous of each other.D.no animals other than monkeys can develop such emotions.18.Female capuchin monkeys were chosen for the research most probably because they are •AA.more inclined to weigh what they get.B.attentive to researchersinstruetions.C.nice in both appearance and temperament.D.more generous than their male companions19.Dr. Brosnan and Dr. de Waal have eventually found in their study that the monkeys • CA.prefer grapes to cucumbers.B.can be taught to exchange things.C.will not be co-operative if feeling cheated.D.are unhappy when separated from others.20.What can we infer from the last paragraph? BA.Monkeys can be trained to develop social emotions.B.Human indignation evolved from an uncertain source.C.Animals usually show their feelings openly as humans do.D.Cooperation among monkeys remains stable only in the wild.Passage 5For hundreds of millions of years, turtles (海龟)have struggled out of the sea to lay their eggs on sandy beaches, long before there were nature documentaries to celebrate them, or GPS satellites and marine biologists to track them, or volunteers to hand-carry the hatchlings (幼龟)down to the water" s edge les t t hey become disorie nted by headlights and crawl to wards a motel parking lot instead. A formidable wall of bureaucracy has been erec ted to protect t heir prime nesting on the Atlantic coastlines. With all that attention paid to them, you' d think these creatures would at least have the gratitude not to go extinct.But Nature is indifferent to human notions of fairness, and a report by the Fish and Wildlife Service showed a worrisome drop in the populations of several species of North Atlantic turtles, notably loggerheads, which can grow to as much as 400 pounds. The South Florida nesting population, the largest, has declined by 50% in the last decade, according to Elizabeth Griffin, a marine biologist with the environmental group Oceana. The figures prompted Oceana to petition the government to upgrade the level of protection for the North Atlantic loggerheads from "threatened” to “endangered” 一meaning they are in danger of disappearing without additional help.Which raises the obvious question: what else do these turtles want from us, anyway? It turns out, according to Griffin, that while we have done a good job of protecting the turties for the weeks they spend on land (as egg-laying females, as eggs and as hatchlings), we have neglected the years spend in the ocean. "The threat is from commercial fishing, ” says Griffin. Trawlers (which drag large nets through the water and along the ocean floor) and long line fishers (which can deploy thousands of hooks on lines that can stretch for miles) take a heavy toll on turtles.Of course, like every other environmental issue today, this is playing out against the background of global warming and human interference with natural ecosystems. The narrow strips of beach on which the turtles lay their eggs are being squeezed on one side by development and on the other by the threat of rising sea levels as the oceans warm. Ultimately we must get a handle on those issues as well, or a creature that outlived the dinosaurs (恐龙)will meet its end at the hands of humans, leaving our descendants to wonder how creature so ugly could have won so much affection.6.We can learn from the first paragraph that _________ B ____ •A- human activities have changed the way turtles surviveB.efforts have been made to protect turties from dying outC- government bureaucracy has contributed to turtles‘ extinctionD.marine biologists are looking for the secret of turtles‘ reproduction7.What does the author mean by "Nature is indifferent to human notions of fairness w(Line 1, Para・ 2)? DA.Nature is quite fair regarding the survival of turtles.B・ Turtles are by nature indifferent to human activities.C.The course of nature will not be changed by human interference.D・ The turtie population has decreased in spite of human protection.8.What constitutes a major threat to the survival of turties according to Elizabeth Griffin? BA・ Their inadequate food supply. B. Unregulated commercial fishing.C.Their lower reproductively ability.D. Contamination of sea water9.How does global warming affect the survival of turtles? AA- It threatens the sandy beaches on which they lay eggs.B.The changing climate makes it difficult for their eggs to hatch.C- The rising sea levels make it harder for their hatchlings to grow.D.It takes them longer to adapt to the high beach temperature.10.The last sentence of the passage is meant to __________ C ____ •A- persuade human beings to show more affection for turtlesB.stress that even the most ugly species should be protectedC.call for effective measures to ensure sea turtles, survivalD.warn our descendants about the extinction of speciesPassage 7There are few more sobering online activities than entering data into college-tuition calculators and gasping as the Web spits back a six-figure sum. But economists say families about to go into debt to fund four years of partying, as well as studying, can console themselves with the knowledge that college is an investment that, unlike many bank stocks, should yield huge dividends.A 2008 study by two Harvard economists notes that the a labor-market premium toskill—or the amount college graduates earned that, s greater than what high-school graduate earned一decreased for much of the 20th century, but has come back with a vengeance (报复性地)since the 1980s. In 2005, The typical full-time year-round U. S.worker with a four-year college degree earned $50, 900, 62% more than the $31, 500 earned by a worker with only a high-school diploma.There' s no question that going to college is a smart economic choice. But a look at the st range varia ti ons in tuition reveals tha t the choice abo ut which college to at tend doesn,t come down merely to dollars and cen ts. Does going to Columbia University (tuition, room and board $49, 260 in 2007-08) yield a 40% greater return than attending the University of Colorado at Boulder as an out-of-state student ($35, 542)? Probably not. Does being an out-of-state studentat the University of Colorado at Boulder yield twice the amount of income as being an in-state student ($17,380) there? Not likely.No, in this consumerist age, most buyers aren^ t evaluating college as an investment, but rat her as a consumer product—like a car or clot hes or a house. And with such purchases, price is only one of many crucial factors to consider.As with automobiles, consumers in today, s college marketplace have vast choices, and people search for the one that gives them the most comfort and satisfaction in line with their budgets. This accounts for the willingness of people to pay more for different types of experiences (such as attending a private liberal-arts college or going to an out-of-state public school that has a great marine-biology program). And just as two auto purchasers might spend an equal amount of money on very different cars, college students (or, more accurately, their parents) often show a willingness to pay essentially the same price for vastly different products. So which is it? Is college an investment product like a stock or a consumer product like a car? In keeping with the automotive world' s hottest consumer trend, maybe it, s best to characterize it as a hybrid (混合动力汽车);an expensive consumer product that, over time, will pay rich dividends.11.What, s the opinion of economists about going to college? DA・ Huge amounts of money is being wasted on campus socializing.B> It doesn,t pay to run into debt to receive a college education.C.College education is rewarding in spite of the startling costs.D.Going to college doesn, t necessarily bring the expected returns.12.The two Harvard economists note in their study that, for much of the20th century, ____ D _____ .A • enrollment kept decreasing in virtually all American colleges and universitiesB.the labor market preferred high-school to college graduatespetition for university admissions was far more fierce than todayD.the gap between the earnings of college and high-school graduates narrowed13.Students who attend an ins tate college or university can _______________ A_.A. save more on tuition B・ receive a better educationC> take more liberal-arts courses D・ avoid traveling long distances14.In this consumerist age, most parents __________ D ____ .A・ regard college education as a wise investmentB> place a premium on the prestige of the CollegeC.think it crucial to send their children to collegeD.consider college education a consumer product15.What is the chief consideration when students choose a college today? BA・ Their employment prospects after graduation.B> A satisfying experience within their budgets.C.Its facilities and learning environment.D.Its ranking among similar institutions.。

Passage 1A Working Man Is a Healthy ManOK, you're only 30-years-old - or maybe even 40 or 50 - and are already fantasizing about retiring. You've got the (fill in the blank: stock options, trust fund, rich wife) in place and now the only question is when. What's the best time to devote yourself full-time to golf?A dreadful thought, perhaps - particularly if working for a living has never agreed with you. But epidemiological analyses of every variety have long concluded that men who retire early don't live as long as men who keep working late into geezerhood. Given the opportunity to fill our days with nothing but recreational activity, we get in trouble - get beaned by a shanked golf ball, fall off a fishing boat after a beer, too many, that kind of thing.Anything that removes us too much from the nurturing world of women is simply bad for our health. That's not to say that we don't suffer some ill effects from work. Men are the victims of more than 90 percent of all job-related accidents. Our highly competitive instincts also propel us to advance in our professions and climbing the ladder can be stressful (although interestingly, most CEO's are in excellent health; they're highly resilient, born leaders).Any job in which the tasks are slightly beyond our reach is going to cause stress - along with the high blood pressure, depressed immunity and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. But, then, raising children is stressful. Unemployment is really stressful. Vacations can be stressful. Driving in Milan is even a nightmare.The point is that, in terms of the picture, not working, whether by choice or not, is worse for us than working. This has always been true, but now there are some modern wrinkles on this truism that reflect changing gender roles.REW ARDS OF SUCCESSWork is good for men - especially if the proper conditions are in place. For instance - and this is not likely to sit well with social egalitarians - men who are married to "homemaker" wives are more likely to have upwardly mobile careers. That's the conclusion of the Cornell University Retirement and Well-Being Study, which also found the converse to be true: Men married to women who work full-time are more likely to have downwardly mobile careers. From other data, we know that a successful and accomplished man is a healthy and happy man.A recent Scottish study also points to the effects changing gender roles are having on men's working life. The increased number of women in both part-time and full-time work, the researchers say, may indirectly be responsible for rising rates of suicide and depression in men, at least in the British Isles. For men, the resultant loss of status as sole financial provider for the family and the perceived loss of social status could all be risk factors for depression.Family life also affects the benefits a man obtains from work. After having a baby, American men work longer hours, particularly if the child is a boy."We can only guess that having a son increases the value of marriage and family for men," says Shelly Lundberg, a psychologist at the University of Washington, an economics professor who did the research. Using data from the U.S. Panel Study of Income Dynamics1, he found that the birth of a first son generated an average increase in a man's work time of84 hours every year after the boy's birth - the equivalent of more than two additional weeks on the job. Men added only 31 hours after having a daughter. They also discovered a "fatherhood premium" that raised men's hourly wages by about 5 percent every time they fathered a child.RETIREResearch repeatedly has shown that a working family man with more disposable income is a happier, healthier man.Still not convinced? The findings of people who study retirement suggest some good reasons not to retire. For one thing, newly retired men experience more marital conflict than non-retired men. Your wife simply finds it stressful to wonder whether you've been beaned by a golf ball or bobbing in the ocean next to your empty beer can.The good news is that you can regain whatever you may have lost by retiring - and then going back to work. Psychologists Jungmeen E. Kim and Phyllis Moen of Cornell found that men who retire often gain a new lease on life when they decide to go back to work."Post-retirement employment appears to be beneficial for their psychologicalwell-being," says Kim. Those who are retired and re-employed report the highest morale and lowest depression. And men who are retired and not re-employed experience the lowest morale and most depression.Their study of 534 married men and women between 50 and 74 found the work-status links to morale and depression were regardless of age, income and health.So suck it up, buddy, and plan to work until you drop. It's one prescription for longevity that is known to work.(804 words) 1. In the sentence (Para. 1)"... now the only question is when", here "when" means ____.[A] when to devote yourself full-time to golf[B] when to marry a rich wife[C] when to retire[D] when to have a vacation2.

[题数:5;分数:10分;参考时间:10分0秒]题6 - 10Passage 2A Stateless Language That Europe Must EmbraceEnglish is already Europe's lingua franca and it's time for politicians and educators to acknowledge this.The language policy in the European Union1 is both ineffective and hypocritical, and its ideas of linguistic equality and multilingualism are costly and cumbersome illusions. Why have these illusions been kept up for so long? First, because the French with their traditionally superior position in Europe cannot accept the decline of their own linguistic power; second, because the politically-correct ideologies of some sociolinguists constantly fuel opposition against the idea of English as a European lingua franca; and third, because powerful translators' lobbies fight for their raison d'etre. In the name of the high ideal of linguistic equality a time-consuming, expensive and increasingly intractable translationmachinery is maintained that is doing its best to translate the illusion of equality into illusions of multilingualism and translatability.The translations produced in the world's largest translation bureau are taken as tokens for equality: what counts is that they exist, not what they are like - many EU officials doubt their accuracy and openly prefer to read the more reliable English and French originals. Also, the supposed linguistic equality in the EU is a relative one: some languages are more "equal" than others, and minority languages inside the member states do not count at all.The EU's ostensible multilingualism sets it apart from other international organisations. Instead of having opted for a "workable" number of working languages, all the official languages of the member states were given equal status. For a smooth functioning of the EU institutions, however, whose legislation ordinary people do not understand anyway, the use of English as a lingua franca would be infinitely better.English is particularly suitable as Europe's lingua franca because of its functional flexibility and spread across the world, and because English is already "de-nativised" to a large extent: the global number of non-native speakers is now substantially larger than its native speakers (about 4:1). English is no longer "owned" by its native speakers because acculturation and nativisation processes have produced a remarkable diversification of the English language into many non-native varieties.The point is that we can no longer say that English is one monolithic, "hegemonic" voice, it is a diversity of different voices. The multiplicity of voices behind English as a lingua franca implies that differences in interactional norms between speakers using English as a language for communication remain unaltered. And it is this deep diversity in the use of English by speakers with different mother tongues that invalidates the claim that English is an imperialist adversary, an eliminating "killer language" - which English, we may ask?Is it those localised, regionalised or otherwise appropriated varieties of English whose speakers creatively conduct pragmatic and cultural shifts? Surely not. Arguments such as the ones brought forward by the anti-English league are simply outdated. The Empire has Struck back already. Non-native speakers of English have created their own discourse norms and genres. And they do this out of their own free will, happily ignoring the "linguistic domination" ascribed to them. In other words there is no didactic-linguistic replay of formerly colonial and militaristic means.English as a lingua franca is nothing more than a useful tool: it is a "language for communication", a medium that is given substance with the different national, regional, local and individual cultural identities its speakers bring to it. English itself does not carry such identities, and it is not a "language for identification". And because of the variety of functional uses of global English, English has also a great potential for promoting international understanding. Its different speakers must always work out a common behavioural and intercultural basis.Paradox as this may seem, the very spread of English can motivate speakers of other languages to insist on their own local language for identification, for binding them emotionally to their own cultural and historical tradition. There is no need to set up anold-fashioned dichotomy between local languages and English as the "hegemonic aggressor": there is a place for both, because they fulfill different functions. To deny this is to upholdoutdated concepts of monolingual societies and individuals.Using English as a lingua franca in Europe does not inhibit linguistic diversity, and it unites more than it divides, simply because it may be "owned" by all Europeans - not as a cultural symbol, but a means of enabling understanding.(875 words) 6. Why are the translators against English as Europe's lingua franca?____[A] They want to fight for linguistic equality and multilingualism.[B] They want to maintain a time-consuming, expensive translation machinery.[C] They want to maintain the existence of their profession.[D] They want to keep the current positions of various languages in Europe.7. The author thinks that the diversities of English used in European countries can be used as a proof to show that ____.[A] the differences in interactional norms between speakers using English for communication is unchanged[B] the localised or regionalised varieties of English have brought cultural shifts[C] English is an imperialist aggressor, an eliminating "killer language"[D] non-native speakers of English may give up their own language when using English as a lingua franca.8. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?____[A] The use of English can change other European languages, gradually destroying their identities.[B] The use of English can change the structural and discourse conventions in other European languages.[C] The spread of English can promote speakers of other languages to find a common behavioral and intercultural basis[D] The spread of English can motivate speakers of other languages to insist on their own local language for identification.9. The word "uphold" (Line 5, Para. 9) most probably means "____."[A] refuse[B] support[C] raise[D] defeat10. What is the author's purpose in writing this article?____[A] To show that translations are taken as tokens for linguistic equality.[B] To emphasize that EU's multilingualism sets it apart from other organizations.[C] To argue that English should be used as a lingua franca in Europe.[D] To explain that English is one monolithic, "hegemonic" voice.选词填空Directions:Fill in the blanks with the words given below.

第一套B D B A B AC BD C A D (好象前5题之中还差一个)BD ADCCaging healthy old age meant proper c and e start it later ExtendedB A DC AD A C B CHealthy AgingMaybe it sounds odd, but it’s true that the moment we are born, we are marching towards death. Researchers suggest that, to attain healthy aging, we should stop smoking, eat more fruits, vegetables and have sports often.In my view, apart from the above-mentioned methods, we need further to correct our former understanding of aging. For many years, people tend to refrain from the thought of aging because that has always been associated with such negative meanings as weakness and impotence. Consequently, in order to appear “young”, people always do somethi ng that they believe only young people would do, for example, staying up very late days on a row. However, such activities often cause heavy burden both on people’ physical and mental health.In conclusion, so long as we have a mature attitude towards the aging, attend to our eating habit and have sports from time to time, we are certain to attain the healthy aging.B D B D B B D D A AD C B C A B Afive yearsthe General Assenblythe U.S.第二套1-5 CBBCD6-10 CCBBC11-15 DAACB16-18 CDB19.how-to-get-in 20.follow 21.hardest 22.would rather 23.toughest 24.in general 25.extracurricular 26.to the extent 27.tell 28.rather than29-33 BDAAC34-38DCABAHuge amounts of people wondered if there is really a secret fomular for admissions.However,asJacques Steinberg says,there certainly isno formular,but some common factors that affect your admissions do exists,like your taking the hardest courses and so on.For me, a good student's qualifications are not all about good results of studying.Good results can illustrate nothing but you're good at examinations.If you want to be a good student,you should have guts to try the hardest class,and have the constant will to concentrate on something.What's more,a good student first should be a decent person.It means a good student need a nice personality.In short, a good student is not what peole traditionally regard as.It needs more than high results.50-54 DAACC55-59 DAACB60-64 BACAD65-66 BC67.much more energy is wanted as heat68.making social changebined heat and power第三套1-5 C A C D D 6-10 A D D A C11-15 B D A D C 16-18 C A B19 following 20 representatives21 clean up 22 making changes23 take 24 spokesman 25 creates26 install 27 cut 28 deadline29 C 30 B 31 D 32 B 33 A 34 C 35 A 36 B 37 C 38 D口语原文39.

Air quality has improved quite dramatically in the U.S. over about the last 30 years, since the Clean Air Act, the federal law, was enacted.Although the representatives of some plants are making effort to change this state, this problem hasn't been resolved yet. The reason is that controlling emissions takes much money, and new technology. For example, just one piece of equipment to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions can cost 100 million dollars each to install, which gives much pressure to the finance of an entrepreneur.In a word, it’s not enough of the government to promulgate a law to control the pollution,financial and technological support should be attached much importance to.。

Unit 3 CopyrightPart I Read the following passage aloud.The reality is: Whether the bulk of your presentations are in-house or to external audiences, your odds of being caught violating copyright are improving every day, as are your chances of paying a stiff fine. Statutory damages for infringing on copyright can hit $20 000 per violation, and they can go as high as $100 000 in some circumstances of willful violation —and that’s above and beyond the fine for actual damages. Furthermore, commercial copyright violation involving more than 10 copies and a value of more than $2 500 is now a felony in the United States.In one recent case, a corporation paid a seven-figure settlement for its unauthorized photocopying of articles from a trade journal and archiving those copies for internal distribution. With similar violations occurring almost daily in corporate America, and with an increase in piracy on the World Wide Web, licensing organizations, performing-rights societies and other copyright cops have stepped up activity to enforce their rights.The Training Media Association, a watchdog for training-video vendors, offers a $10 000 bounty for reporting illegal copying or unauthorized “public performance” of off-the-shelf training videos. A temporary-employment agency recently paid a six-figure out-of-court fee after one of its employees reported it to the TMA for making illegal copies of four videos (the agency had no license to do so) and sending the copies out for use in its 50 offices.Part II. TOPIC CopyrightSection One Each of the students will be asked one question on the topic “Copyright”.1.Is downloading music from the internet ethical? Why or why not?2.Do you download anything from the Internet? What kind of things did you usuallydownload?3.Have you ever bought a pirated product? Why did you buy it?4.Have you ever faced a situation where you violated copyright, if you have, what is theconsequence and what did you do?5.What kind of activities are considered as violating copyright?6.What is the purpose of the copyright law?Section Two Please have a group discussion on the following topic:Is copyright infringement theft? How should we protect copyright? Give some examples.During the discussion you may argue with each other or ask each other questions to clarify a point. Your performance will be judged according to your contributions to the discussion.。
