Teachers and parents usually call attention to the pictures when reading storybooks to preschool children. But a new study suggests that calling attention to the print the words and letters on the page may lead to 1 readers.The two-year study 2 children aged 3 to 5 who were regularly read to this way in class with children who were not. In all, over three hundred students, who were considered to be at serious risk of 3 reading problems in future life, were 4 in a classroom setting. After reviewing the recorded lessons, the researchers found that those students whose teachers most often 5 the print showed clearly higher skills in reading, spelling and understanding. Professor Shayne Piasta, the study's author, says most teachers would find this method 6 because it needs only a small change in the way they teach. They already read storybooks in class. The only 7 in the new method would be increased attention to the print.Ms. Piasta says if adults can 8 children in the stories and get them to pay attention to letters and words, it makes sense that they will do better at 9 recognition. But few parents and teachers do this in a 10 way starting first with letters, then 11 moving to words, sentences and paragraphs.Teachers and parents can point to a letter and outline its 12 with a finger. They can point out a word and 13 , "This is ‘dog’ ". They can discuss the 14 of the print to find how the words combine to tell the story. And they can talk about the 15 of the print for example, how words are written from left to fight.1. A. clearer B. better C. higher D. happier2. A. compared B. paired C. related D. involved3.

Reading comprehensionA .T rue or false.Nowadays, one of the most popular kinds of communication on the Internet is through personal Web sites called blogs. Blog is a shortened name for Web log. Anyone can crate his or her own blog and update information to their blogs evry day. A blog may contain stories or pictures, link to other Web sites and get some comments(评价)from visitors.Blogs offer a way to present news or personal information. Blogs have become a place for public expression on many subjects. It is estimated(估计)that there are more than sixty million blogs around the world. People who have blogs are called bloggers. In the united States, many people have blogs. So do many other Americans, including teenagers and college students. Surely, some bloggers are experts in their fields and forever have invaluable contents to offer us. Most of those bloggers are discussing new ideas, hot topics from their life experiences. Nevertheless, even famous bloggers would run out of contents without constant(持续的)learning. This is one reason why many bloggers end up with nothing to write. However, they forget this and think they have unlimited contents just waiting to burst from their brain. Gradually, they fail to own the fresh thoughts.In fact, it applies everywhere: Think you’re successful in your sport? Stop practicing. See what happens. Y our English has been improved to the greatest possible level, but don’t want to learn something new? Y ou’ll soon be behind others. In today’s society, a degree tells little about what you know. It does tell about what you can learn. For instance, the IT world is constantly changing. Anything learnt today will probably be useless in a few short years. The point is to learn to learn. Blogging works exactly the same way. Never stop learning, or your blog will close forever one day.71. Everyone can design his or her own blog and add information to their blogs every day.72. Blogs aren’t allowed to connect to the other Web sites through the Internet.73. There are more than six million blogs on many subjects around the world.74. Bloggers like to share their fresh ideas, hot topics and express their personal opinions.75. Without constant learning famous bloggers could still get the contents from their brain.76. In today’s society a degree shows much about what you know.77. People won’t get tired of your blogging if you’re continuously improving your writing.B. Choose the best answer.(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)Out of all of American’s symbols, none has proved more famous than the Statue of Liberty. This giant figure, torch in hand and standing on a ston e base, has acted as the American Dream for a century. It’s worth remembering that the statue is a reminder that the USA is a land of immigrants(移民):indeed it was New Y ork Harbor where the first European immigrants arrived and ended their journey into the unknown and the hopeful beginning of a new life.The statue, which holds a torch to light the world, was the creation of the French sculptor Bartholdi, who crafted(精心制作) it a hundred years after the American Revolution. Bartholdi built Liberty in Paris between 1874 and 1884, starting with a model and making it larger four times to its present size. The arm carrying the torch was exhibited in Madison Square Park for seven years, but the whole statue wasn’t officially accepted to stand for the American people until 1884. Then it was taken apart and shipped to New Y ork. Another two years passed before it could be properly open to the public. Money had to be collected tofund(资助) the construction of the base, and for some reason it’s very hard to collect this su m of money. Nevertheless because of the great of a rich man, Joseph Pulitzer, a keen supporter of the statue, raised all the money in the end, and the statue of Liberty was formally displayed by President Cleveland on October 28, 1886. The statue was closed for a few years in the mid-1980s for repairs and, in 1986, fifteen million people gathered on Manhattan for the statue’s centennial celebrations.Today you can climb steps up to the crown. Don’t be surprised if there’s an hour-long wait to enjoy the jour ney. Even if there is, Liberty Park’s views of the lower Manhattan skyline are worth seeing because they are definitely unique.78. The Statue of Liberty is located in __________A. WashingtonB. ParisC. New Y orkD. Boston79. The Statue of Liberty can remind people that European immigrants ________A. were good at their craftingB. were the first to discover this landC. looked forward to leading a new lifeD. collected money for the American Revolution80.

In which year was the whole statue exhibited to the American people?A. 1874B. 1876C.1884D. 188682.__________ helped fund the construction of the base of the statue.A. President ClevelandB. Manhattan citizensC. The sculptor BartholdiD. Joseph Pulitzer83. The underlined word “centennial” in this passage probably means _______A. a hundred yearsB. eighty yearsC. fifty yearsD. ten years84.

It has been desinged to e 92 more people to cycle in and around central London. So how does it work? First you have to sign up to the project to get a key. The key will unlock one of the bikes, which are kept at parking stations in and around central London. Y ou have to pay for the key and then you pay as you go, according to the l 93 of time you use the bike. The organization, Transport for London, runs the project and h 94 to have 6,000 bikes and 400 parking stations by the end of the year. The new hire system wants to ease congestion (缓解拥堵) in London and is expected to have up to 40,000 extra cycle trips a day into the city centre.London Mayor Boris Johnston started the project and said London used to be a f 95 of thousands of shining cars and the project might change the outlook of their streets. However, a few problems have appeared s 96 the project was started last Friday. Transport for London admitted they could expect a few small difficulties and allow cyclists not to pay for the first day as a bush. Some people found they couldn’t park their bike e 97 and nobody recorded their hire time of the bike on the first day. Others aren’t satisfied with the number of the parking stations for the bikes as well as the price it costs to hire the bicycles. Although the organization has received some complaints, the green-thinking London Mayor still seems very a 98 about the Bike Hire Plan, saying, “My plan for the capital to become the greatest big cycling city in the world has taken a big step forward.”E. Answer the questions.(根据短文内容回答下列问题)14分The year 2010 is the Expo year which has attracted worldwide attention. As a young volunteer, Alice got her experience by working at a city service station. The service station where she volunteered is located atthe New World Tower on Huaihai Zhong Road. Each day, thousands of people passed through this area, including tourists from other Chinese provinces and foreign countries, many of whom were in Shanghai for the first time, many visitors came to the station and asked for information about the Expo.In order to make every customer enjoy the excellent service, Alice and other volunteers designed several paper boards showing the routes from the New World Tower to every Expo entrance as well as the information about the buses connecting to the Expo site. They also made several paper cards to show the Expo ticket offices and the nearby Expo product stores. With these useful tools, Alice has become a Expo expert, offering the most accurate and helpful information for Expo visitors in different languages including Mandarin(普通话),English and Japanese.One day, a family of four people from Wuhan asked her how to get to the China Pavilion reservation(预约) tickets. Based on the location of the hotel where they stayed, Alice worked out a special action plan for them. Since the reservation tickets are given out at all Expo entrances, Alice suggested the family go to Entrance No.3 for the reservation tickets because the number of visitors entering there was smaller. Following her suggestion, the family got the reservation tickets and visited the China Pavilion happily. The next day, they returned to the service station to express their gratitude(感激) to Alice.Expo volunteering experience has greatly influenced Alice’s life, which will be with her anywhere, anytime. Alice was very proud that she did something for the Expo and for the city. She felt all her hard work was worth it.

For years, scientists have worked hard tounderstand the changes that happen to them. They find that three factors 41 fall’s col orfulfarewell —leaf pigments (色素), length of night, and weather. The timing of the color change ismainly regulated by the increasing length of night. ‖None of the other 42 influences, such as temperature, rainfall, food supply, are as unchanging as the 43 increasing length of nightduring fall. As days grow shorter, and nights grow longer and cooler, biochemical 44 inleaves begin to paint the landscape with an explosion of colors. And Nature puts on one of itsmost splendid 45 of beauty.The timing of the color change 46 by species. Some species in southern forests canbecome vividly colorful in late summer while all other species are still vigorously green. Oaks puton their colors long after other species have already shed their leaves. These differences in timing among species seem to be genetically 47 , for a particular species, whether on a high mountain or in warmer lowlands, will change color at the same time.However, some species are evergreens. Pines, for example, are green all the year roundbecause they have toughened up. They have developed over the years a needle-like or scale-like foliage (绿叶植物), which is 48 with a heavy wax coating. And the liquid inside their cellscontains cold-resistant elements. So the leaves of evergreens can safely withstand (经受住) all butthe most 49 winter conditions, such as those in the Arctic.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Every year the United States exports ―cultural products‖to the rest of the world while it only imports similar products from other countries equal to about one percent of the amount exported. Movies, for example, are one such 50 . The movie industry in countries like England andItaly is almost completely 51 on American exports. Both countries report that 85% to 95%of all movie tickets sold each year are for movies produced in the United States. Millions of people worldwide buy American pop, rap, and rock music. Billions of people drink Coca-Cola and eat McDonald’s hamburgers. ‖American software 52 the computer market.Can all of the above products be called ―cultural‖, however? That depends on how one 53culture. Most people 54 culture into two forms: ―high‖culture and ―low‖culture. High culture is the kind produced by writers arid 55 . It is more concerned with stimulating thoughtin the people who view or use it and does not 56 care how marketable people find it. Lowculture, 57 , is viewed as a product usually for entertainment and is only as good as how wellit sells. Because it is 58 by masses of people, this type of culture can also be called ―mass culture‖. The 59 between low and high culture are not very clear.Pierre Guerlain, a professor of English and American Studies in France, points out that whena cultural product is imported, the product cannot cover the existing culture, thus 60 it. Theimported product is changed to adapt to the local context. Anyone who believes that a societywhich imports American products of mass culture will become a 61 of America is beingnaive (幼稚的). ‖American may seem to have the strongest hand in exporting cultural products, but there is a boomerang (相反的) 62 for being more of an exporter than importer. Because Europeansand Japanese import so many cultural products from the United States, they know a lot more about American culture 63 than Americans know about European or Japanese culture. It is adefinite advantage for the Europeans and Japanese to be bilingual as well as bicultural. Thesecountries can use their knowledge of American society and 64 to increase their chances of success in the American market.50. A. aspect B. product C. example D. project51.

A. values B. economy C. policies D. characteristicsSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Until recently, the ―science of the future‖was supposed to be electronics and artificial intelligence. Today it seems more and more likely that the next great breakthroughs in technology will be brought through a combination of those two sciences with organic chemistry and genetic engineering. This combination is the science of biotechnology.Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic materials. However, it is stilldifficult to manufacture anything that has the property of wool to conserve (保存) heat and also toabsorb moisture. Nothing that we have been able to produce so far comes anywhere near thecombination of strength, lightness and flexibility that we find in the bodies of ordinary insects.Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in ―growing‖ a material that has many of the characteristics of human skin. The next step may well be ―biotech hearts and eyes‖which can replace diseased organs in human beings. These will not be rejected by the body, as is the case with organs from humans.The application of biotechnology to energy production seems even more promising. In 1996the famous science fiction writer, Arthur C. Clarke, many of whose previous predictions havecome true, said that we may soon be able to develop, remarkably cheap and renewable sources ofenergy. Some of these power sources will be biological. Clarke and others have warned usrepeatedly that sooner or later we will have to give up our dependence on non-renewable powersources. Coal, oil and gas are indeed convenient. However, using them also means creatingdangerously high levels of pollution. It will be impossible to meet the growing demand for energywithout increasing that pollution to disastrous levels unless we develop power sources that areboth cheaper and cleaner. ‖It is attempting to think that biotechnology or some other ―science of the future‖can solve our problems. Before we surrender to that temptation we should remember nuclear power. Only a few generations ago it seemed to promise limitless, cheap and safe energy. Today those promises lie buried in a concrete grave in a place called Chernobyl, in the Ukraine.Biotechnology is unlikely, however, to break its promises in quite the same or such a dangerous way.65. The materials produced with organic chemistry are _____ at present.A. not as good as natural materialsB. as good as an insect’s bodyC. better than natural materialsD. as good as wool66. According to the passage, it may soon be possible _____.A. to transplant human organsB. to make something as good as human skinC. to produce drugs without side effectsD. to make artificial hearts and eyes67. In 1996, Arthur C. Clarke predicted that _____.A. the Chernobyl disaster would happen in two yearsB. oil, gas and coal could be repeatedly used in the futureC. biological power sources would be put into use soonD. we will never stop using non-renewable power sources68. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. Biological power will keep all its promises.B. Biological power is cheaper than nuclear power.C. Biotechnology can solve all our future energy problems.D. Biological power may not be as risky as nuclear power.(B)We’ve all been there, finishing a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downing cookie after cookie while cramming (死记硬背) for a big test. But when done a lot —especially without realizing it —emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being.Not many of us make the connection between eating and our feelings. But understanding what drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it. ‖One of the biggest myths (荒诞的说法) about emotional eating is that it’s driven by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like th e romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce. More often,though, it’s the coun tless little daily stresses that cause someone to seek comfort or distraction infood.Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is given candy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done. A kid who is give n cookies as a way to stop crying may learn to link cookies with comfort. It’s not easy to ―unlearn‖patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it starts with an awareness of what’s going on.We’re all emotional eaters to some extent (who hasn’t suddenly found room for dessert after a filling dinner?). But for some people, emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain.The trouble with emotional eating (aside from the health issues) is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain. And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you did. That’s why it helps to kn ow the differences between physical hunger and emotional hunger. ‖Next time you reach for a snack, check in and see which type of hunger is driving it.69. People turn to emotional eating because _____.A. they are preparing for the testB. they enjoy the pleasure of eatingC. they want to seek comfort or distractionD. they feel better after eating70. By saying ―We’ve all been there‖(Paragraph 1), the author means _____.A. finishing a whole bag of chips out of freedom is badB. we are all emotional eaters to some extentC. our health will be affected by emotional eatingD. people eat more without realizing it71. If you want to break away from the patterns of emotional eating, the first thing you should do is to _____.A. reduce stress and anxietyB. relax and try to lose weightC. stop seeking comfort from foodD. realize what is happening(C)ASK LASKASYOU’VE GOT QUESTIONS, SHE’S GOT ANSWERSQ My problem is computer gaming. I do it day and night, averaging four hours of sleep. I can’tcontrol of this, and I don’t know where to go for help. Do you?PlayerA Dear player,You have an addiction. For some people playing video games releases dopamine, a powerfulbrain chemical that makes you feel good. You’d toss your cigarettes if you were ready to quit,right? To kick the habit, get help from a health professional. And don’t look for help on line; that would be like an alcoholic going to the bar for advice. ‖Q My brother’s wife just had triplets (三胞胎). This is such a joy! Yet every time I share the newswith co-workers, they ask me if she was on fertility pills. I think this is rude — or has society just become so talk-show numbed (麻木的) that you can ask anyone anything? No Show HostA Dear Host,Yes. Our society has become increasingly disrespectful of privacy. But don’t blame it all onthe talk shows. Continue to celebrate and greet impolite questions with stony silence. Their fertilityhistory i s nobody’s business but their own.Q I work at an amusement park, and my manager steals supplies. She has a catering businesson the side, and we’ve seen her load up her van at the back gates. The big bosses think she the best thing since buttered brea d, and we’re all afraid that if we say nothing, we’ll lose our jobs. What can we do? RighteousA Dear Righteous,Be sure you’re right. You must have evidence about what and why things are going out theback gates.

Illegal hunting has caused a decrease in the number of sea turtles.B. Most turtles are eaten by Mexicans and Mexican Americans.C. A campaign to protect sea turtles. ‖D. Many people kill and eat turtles in a religious observance.E. Government should prevent sea turtle hunting to increase the number of the species.F. A letter was written to Pope to save endangered sea turtles.76.Environmental groups in the United States are leading a campaign to save thousands of endangered sea turtles. ‖They have asked Pope John Paul the Second to ban turtle meat during the Christian religious observance known as Lent. Christians observe Lent in preparation for the holiday of Easter.77.Environmental groups say illegal turtle hunting is one of the major threats to endangered sea turtles in southern California and Mexico. It has been illegal to harvest and eat sea turtle meat in Mexico for more than ten years. However, demand for sea turtle meat is widespread in both Southern California and Mexico. Biologists believe that illegal hunting is one of the main reasons for the sharp drop in sea turtle populations during the past thirty years.78.The week before Easter Sunday is an especially deadly time for the turtles. As many as 5,000 turtles are killed during this time each year. Many Mexicans and Mexican Americans eat turtle meat during the days before Easter. Many people do not eat meat during this holy time in order to obey the rules of Lent. Because sea turtles swim, many people consider them to be fish. Fish is permitted during Lent.79.The Sea Turtle Conservation Network is a union of fishermen, environmental activists and researchers. They sent a letter to Pope John Paul, urging the Roman Catholic Church leader to officially declare that sea turtle flesh is meat, not fish or seafood. They say thousands of these endangered animals would be saved if people did not eat them during this religious period. The letter also asked members of the Catholic Church to obey laws banning the capture of turtles in Mexico and the United States. ‖80.About 35,000 endangered sea turtles are killed illegally near the coasts of Baja, Californiaeach year. Studies have shown a sharp drop in the numbers of females. They travel from as faraway as Japan to lay their eggs on local beaches. Environmental activists say hunting sea turtlesfor their meat is the main barrier to the recovery of the species. They have urged the governmentsof the United States and Mexico to improve enforcement of the ban on sea turtle harvesting.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully and answer the questions or complete the statements in no more than 12 words.―Severe fatigue (疲乏), very weak. I could barely walk down the block,‖says Wendy Moro. Why, she wondered, then, Wendy and her doctor begin to suspect her plate. ―A few times a week I was having fish, whether it was once or four times,‖says Wendy. ―What kind of fish? Swordfish, tuna and sea bass, the highest mercury-content (汞含量) fish sold in the commercial market,‖says Dr. Jane Hightower.Mercury enters the ocean with commercial pollution. It works its way up the food chain, andapparently into to some of the most popular fish on the market. Wendy’s doctor, Dr. JaneHightower, was so suspicious that she began testing her Bay Area patients. All consumed largeamounts of fish, and an overwhelming majority tested high for mercury in their systems.―I was seeing hair loss, fatigue, muscle ache, headache, feeling just an ill feeling.‖Hightowersaid.The symptoms began to clear up when Hightower cut the amount of fish in their diets. ―Itwas so obvious, but the problem was still unknown to the public,‖she said. ―I even wanted to rent a tent and a tambourine.‖(A tambourine is a small one-sided drum with metal disks around its rim.) Her published findings drew national attention. But despite her study, there is still fierce debate over how much fish is safe to eat, and how much mercury consumers are actually eating. So we decided to do our own test.According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), the safe level of mercury intakefor a 120-pound woman like Wendy is a little over 38 micrograms per week. On average, a singleserving of tuna purchased here in the Bay Area contained more mercury than the EPArecommends a woman of Wendy’s size eat for an entire week. Sea bass had nearly twice that level,and swordfish nearly six times th e EPA’s safe mercury intake for a week, in a single serving.While there is little scientific data on how the body reacts to high levels of mercury, it hasbeen linked to symptoms ranging from muscle pain to hair loss, birth defects, and muscle fatigue.And, as in our testing, the evidence is mounting that the larger the fish, the more the exposure.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statement in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81. The popular fish on the market obtain mercury through _____ and _____.82. When Dr. Hightower ―wanted to rent a tent and a tambourine‖, she meant to _____.83. What did Dr. Hightower do with the information she discovered?84. What should people do according to the test done by the EPA?第II 卷(共45 分)I.

For years, scientists have worked hard tounderstand the changes that happen to them. They find that three factors 41 fall’s col orful farewell —leaf pigments (色素), length of night, and weather. The timing of the color change is mainly regulated by the increasing length of night. ‖None of the other 42 influences, such as temperature, rainfall, food supply, are as unchanging as the 43 increasing length of night during fall. As days grow shorter, and nights grow longer and cooler, biochemical 44 inleaves begin to paint the landscape with an explosion of colors. And Nature puts on one of itsmost splendid 45 of beauty.The timing of the color change 46 by species. Some speciesin southern forests canbecome vividly colorful in late summer while all other species are still vigorously green. Oaks puton their colors long after other species have already shed their leaves. These differences in timingamong species seem to be genetically 47 , for a particular species, whether on a highmountain or in warmer lowlands, will change color at the same time.However, some species are evergreens. Pines, for example, are green all the year roundbecause they have toughened up. They have developed over the years a needle-like or scale-likefoliage (绿叶植物), which is 48 with a heavy wax coating. And the liquid inside their cellscontains cold-resistant elements. So the leaves of evergreens can safely withstand (经受住) all butthe most 49 winter conditions, such as those in the Arctic.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Every year the United States exports ―cultural products‖to the rest of the world while it only imports similar products from other countries equal to about one percent of the amount exported.Movies, for example, are one such 50 . The movie industry in countries like England andItaly is almost completely 51 on American exports. Both countries report that 85% to 95%of all movie tickets sold each year are for movies produced in the United States. Millions of peopleworldwide buy American pop, rap, and rock music. Billions of people drink Coca-Cola and eatMcDonald’s hamburgers. ‖American software 52 the computer market.Can all of the above products be called ―cultural‖, however? That depends on how one 53culture. Most people 54 culture into two forms: ―high‖culture and ―low‖culture. Highculture is the kind produced by writers arid 55 . It is more concerned with stimulating thoughtin the people who view or use it and does not 56 care how marketable people find it. Lowculture, 57 , is viewed as a product usually for entertainment and is only as good as how wellit sells. Because it is 58 by masses of people, this type of culture can also be called ―massculture‖. The 59 between low and high culture are not very clear.Pierre Guerlain, a professor of English and American Studies in France, points out that whena cultural product is imported, the product cannot cover the existing culture, thus 60 it. Theimported product is changed to adapt to the local context. Anyone who believes that a societywhich imports American products of mass culture will become a 61 of America is beingnaive (幼稚的). ‖American may seem to have the strongest hand in exporting cultural products, but there is a boomerang (相反的) 62 for being more of an exporter than importer. Because Europeans and Japanese import so many cultural products from the United States, they know a lot more about American culture 63 than Americans know about European or Japanese culture. It is a definite advantage for the Europeans and Japanese to be bilingual as well as bicultural. Thesecountries can use their knowledge of American society and 64 to increase their chances of success in the American market.50. A. aspect B. product C. example D. project51. A. fixed B. emphasized C. called D. dependent52. A. dominates B. abandons C. enters D. grasps53. A. defines B. presents C. absorbs D. creates54. A. prefer B. divide C. alter D. view55. A. designers B. technicians C. composers D. artists56. A. comprehensively B. temporarily C. necessarily D. representatively57. A. as a result B. as a whole C. on the average D. on the other hand58.

A. values B. economy C. policies D. characteristicsSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Until recently, the ―science of the future‖was supposed to be electronics and artificial intelligence. Today it seems more and more likely that the next great breakthroughs in technology will be brought through a combination of those two sciences with organic chemistry and genetic engineering. This combination is the science of biotechnology.Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic materials. However, it is stilldifficult to manufacture anything that has the property of wool to conserve (保存) heat and also toabsorb moisture. Nothing that we have been able to produce so far comes anywhere near thecombination of strength, lightness and flexibility that we find in the bodies of ordinary insects.Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in ―growing‖a material that has many of the c haracteristics of human skin. The next step may well be ―biotech hearts and eyes‖which can replace diseased organs in human beings. These will not be rejected by the body, as is the case with organs from humans.The application of biotechnology to energy production seems even more promising. In 1996the famous science fiction writer, Arthur C. Clarke, many of whose previous predictions havecome true, said that we may soon be able to develop, remarkably cheap and renewable sources ofenergy. Some of these power sources will be biological. Clarke and others have warned usrepeatedly that sooner or later we will have to give up our dependence on non-renewable powersources. Coal, oil and gas are indeed convenient. However, using them also means creatingdangerously high levels of pollution. It will be impossible to meet the growing demand for energywithout increasing that pollution to disastrous levels unless we develop power sources that areboth cheaper and cleaner. ‖It is attempting to think that biotechnology or some other ―science of the future‖can solve our problems. Before we surrender to that temptation we should remember nuclear power. Only a few generations ago it seemed to promise limitless, cheap and safe energy. Today those promises lie buried in a concrete grave in a place called Chernobyl, in the Ukraine. Biotechnology is unlikely, however, to break its promises in quite the same or such a dangerous way.65. The materials produced with organic chemistry are _____ at present.A. not as good as natural materialsB. as good as an insect’s bodyC. better than natural materialsD. as good as wool66. According to the passage, it may soon be possible _____.A. to transplant human organsB. to make something as good as human skinC. to produce drugs without side effectsD. to make artificial hearts and eyes67. In 1996, Arthur C. Clarke predicted that _____.A. the Chernobyl disaster would happen in two yearsB. oil, gas and coal could be repeatedly used in the futureC. biological power sources would be put into use soonD. we will never stop using non-renewable power sources68. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. Biological power will keep all its promises.B. Biological power is cheaper than nuclear power.C. Biotechnology can solve all our future energy problems.D. Biological power may not be as risky as nuclear power.(B)We’ve all been there, finishing a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downing cookie after cookie while cramming (死记硬背) for a big test. But when done a lot —especially without realizing it —emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being.Not many of us make the connection between eating and our feelings. But understanding what drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it. ‖One of the biggest myths (荒诞的说法) about emotional eating is that it’s driven by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like th e romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce. More often,though, it’s the coun tless little daily stresses that causesomeone to seek comfort or distraction infood.Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is given candy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done. A kid who is give n cookies as a way to stop crying may learn to link cookies wi th comfort. It’s not easy to ―unlearn‖patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it starts with an awareness of what’s going on.We’re all emotional eaters to some extent (who hasn’t suddenly found room for dessert after a filling dinner?). But for some people, emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain.The trouble with emotional eating (aside from the health issues) is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain. And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you did. That’s why it helps to know the differences between physical hunger and emotional hunger. ‖Next time you reach for a snack, check in and see which type of hunger is driving it.69.

It has been illegal to harvest and eat sea turtle meat in Mexico for more than ten years. However, demand for sea turtle meat is widespread in both Southern California and Mexico. Biologists believe that illegal hunting is one of the main reasons for the sharp drop in sea turtle populations during the past thirty years.78.The week before Easter Sunday is an especially deadly time for the turtles. As many as 5,000 turtles are killed during this time each year. Many Mexicans and Mexican Americans eat turtle meat during the days before Easter. Many people do not eat meat during this holy time in order to obey the rules of Lent. Because sea turtles swim, many people consider them to be fish.

I could barely walk down the block,‖says Wendy Moro. Why, she wondered, then, Wendy and her doctor begin to suspect her plate. ―A few times a week I was having fish, whether it was once or four times,‖says Wendy. ―What kind of fish? Swordfish, tuna and sea bass, the highest mercury-content (汞含量) fish sold in the commercial market,‖says Dr. Jane Hightower.Mercury enters the ocean with commercial pollution. Itworks its way up the food chain, andapparently into to some of the most popular fish on the market. Wendy’s doctor, Dr. JaneHightower, was so suspicious that she began testing her Bay Area patients. All consumed largeamounts of fish, and an overwhelming majority tested high for mercury in their systems.―I was seeing hair loss, fatigue, muscle ache, headache, feeling just an ill feeling.‖Hightowersaid.The symptoms began to clear up when Hightower cut the amount of fish in their diets. ―Itwas so obvious, but the problem was still unknown to the public,‖she said. ―I even wanted to rent a tent and a tambourine.‖(A tambourine is a small one-sided drum with metal disks around its rim.) Her published findings drew national attention. But despite her study, there is still fierce debate over how much fish is safe to eat, and how much mercury consumers are actually eating. So we decided to do our own test.According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), the safe level of mercury intakefor a 120-pound woman like Wendy is a little over 38 micrograms per week. On average, a singleserving of tuna purchased here in the Bay Area contained more mercury than the EPArecommends a woman of Wendy’s size eat for an entire week. Sea bass had nearly twice that level,and swordfish nearly six times th e EPA’s safe mercury intake for a week, in a single serving.While there is little scientific data on how the body reacts tohigh levels of mercury, it hasbeen linked to symptoms ranging from muscle pain to hair loss, birth defects, and muscle fatigue.And, as in our testing, the evidence is mounting that the larger the fish, the more the exposure.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statement in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81. The popular fish on the market obtain mercury through _____ and _____.82. When Dr. Hightower ―wanted to rent a tent and a tambourine‖, she meant to _____.83.

For years, scientists have worked hard to understand the changes that happen to them. They find that three factors 41 fall’s colorfulfarewell —leaf pigments (色素), length of night, and weather. The timing of the color change ismainly regulated by the increasing length of night. ‖None of the other 42 influences, such astemperature, rainfall, food supply, are as unchanging as the 43 increasing length of nightduring fall. As days grow shorter, and nights grow longer and cooler, biochemical 44 in leaves begin to paint the landscape with an explosion of colors. And Nature puts on one of itsmost splendid 45 of beauty.The timing of the color change 46 by species. Some species in southern forests canbecome vividly colorful in late summer while all other species are still vigorously green. Oaks puton their colors long after other species have already shed their leaves. These differences in timingamong species seem to be genetically 47 , for a particular species, whether on a highmountain or in warmer lowlands, will change color at the same time.However, some species are evergreens. Pines, for example, are green all the year round because they have toughened up. They have developed over the years a needle-like or scale-likefoliage (绿叶植物), which is 48 with a heavy wax coating. And the liquid inside their cellscontains cold-resistant elements. So the leaves of evergreens can safely withstand (经受住) all butthe most 49 winter conditions, such as those in the Arctic.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Every year the United States exports ―cultural products‖to the rest of the world while it onlyimports similar products from other countries equal to about one percent of the amount exported.Movies, for example, are one such 50 . The movie industry in countries like England and Italy is almost completely 51 on American exports. Both countries report that 85% to 95% of all movie tickets sold each year are for movies produced in the United States. Millions of peopleworldwide buy American pop, rap, and rock music. Billions of people drink Coca-Cola and eatMcDonald’s hamburgers. ‖American software 52 the computer market.Can all of the above products be called ―cultural‖, however? That depends on how one53culture. Most people 54 culture into two forms: ―high‖culture and ―low‖culture. Highculture is the kind produced by writers arid 55 . It is more concerned with stimulating thoughtin the people who view or use it and does not 56 care how marketable people find it. Lowculture, 57 , is viewed as a product usually for entertainment and is only as good as how wellit sells. Because it is 58 by masses of people, this type of culture can also be called ―massculture‖. The 59 between low and high culture are not very clear.Pierre Guerlain, a professor of English and American Studies in France, points out that whena cultural product is imported, the product cannot cover the existing culture, thus 60 it. Theimported product is changed to adapt to the local context. Anyone who believes that a societywhich imports American products of mass culture will become a 61 of America is being naive (幼稚的). ‖American may seem to have the strongest hand in exporting cultural products, but there is a boomerang (相反的) 62 for being more of an exporter than importer. Because Europeans and Japanese import so many cultural products from the United States, they know a lot more about American culture 63 than Americans know about European or Japanese culture. It is adefinite advantage for the Europeans and Japanese to be bilingual as well as bicultural. Thesecountries can use their knowledge of American society and 64 to increase their chances of success in the American market.50. A. aspect B. product C. example D. project51.

A. values B. economy C. policies D. characteristicsSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by severalquestions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Until recently, the ―science of the future‖was supposed to be electronics and artificial intelligence. Today it seems more and more likely that the next great breakthroughs in technology will be brought through a combination of those two sciences with organic chemistry and genetic engineering. This combination is the science of biotechnology.Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic materials. However, it is still difficult to manufacture anything that has the property of wool to conserve (保存) heat and also toabsorb moisture. Nothing that we have been able to produce so far comes anywhere near thecombination of strength, lightness and flexibility that we find in the bodies of ordinary insects.Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in ―growing‖ a material that has many of the characteristics of human skin. The next step may well be ―biotech hearts and eyes‖which can replace diseased organs in human beings. These will not be rejected by the body, as is the case with organs from humans.The application of biotechnology to energy production seems even more promising. In 1996 the famous science fiction writer, Arthur C. Clarke, many of whose previous predictions have come true, said that we may soon be able to develop, remarkably cheap and renewable sources ofenergy. Some of these power sources will be biological. Clarke and others have warned us repeatedly that sooner or later we will have to give up our dependence on non-renewable powersources. Coal, oil and gas are indeed convenient. However, using them also means creating dangerously high levels of pollution. It will be impossible to meet the growing demand for energywithout increasing that pollution to disastrous levels unless we develop power sources that areboth cheaper and cleaner. ‖It is attempting to think that biotechnology or some other ―science of the future‖can solve our problems. Before we surrender to that temptation we should remember nuclear power. Only a few generations ago it seemed to promise limitless, cheap and safe energy. Today those promises lie buried in a concrete grave in a place called Chernobyl, in the Ukraine. Biotechnology is unlikely, however, to break its promises in quite the same or such a dangerous way.65. The materials produced with organic chemistry are _____ at present.A. not as good as natural materialsB. as good as an insect’s bodyC. better than natural materialsD. as good as wool66. According to the passage, it may soon be possible _____.A. to transplant human organsB. to make something as good as human skinC. to produce drugs without side effectsD. to make artificial hearts and eyes67. In 1996, Arthur C. Clarke predicted that _____.A. the Chernobyl disaster would happen in two yearsB. oil, gas and coal could be repeatedly used in the futureC. biological power sources would be put into use soonD. we will never stop using non-renewable power sources68. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. Biological power will keep all its promises.B. Biological power is cheaper than nuclear power.C. Biotechnology can solve all our future energy problems.D. Biological power may not be as risky as nuclear power.(B)We’ve all been there, finishing a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downing cookie after cookie while cramming (死记硬背) for a big test. But when done a lot —especially without realizing it —emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being.Not many of us make the connection between eating and our feelings. But understanding what drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it. ‖One of the biggest myths (荒诞的说法) about emotional eating is that it’s driven by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce. More often,though, it’s the coun tless little daily stresses that cause someone to seek comfort or distraction infood.Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is given candy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done. A kid who is given cookies as a way to stop crying may learn to link cookies with comfort. It’s not easy t o ―unlearn‖patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it starts with an awareness of what’s going on.We’re all emotional eaters to some extent (who hasn’t suddenly found room for dessert after a filling dinner?). But for some people, emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain.The trouble with emotional eating (aside from the health issues) is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain. And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you did. That’s why it helps to know the d ifferences between physical hunger and emotional hunger. ‖Next time you reach for a snack, check in and see which type of hunger is driving it.69. People turn to emotional eating because _____.A. they are preparing for the testB. they enjoy the pleasure of eatingC. they want to seek comfort or distractionD. they feel better after eating70. By saying ―We’ve all been there‖(Paragraph 1), the author means _____.A. finishing a whole bag of chips out of freedom is badB. we are all emotional eaters to some extentC. our health will be affected by emotional eatingD. people eat more without realizing it71. If you want to break away from the patterns of emotional eating, the first thing you should do is to _____.A. reduce stress and anxietyB. relax and try to lose weightC. stop seeking comfort from foodD. realize what is happening(C)ASK LASKASYOU’VE GOT QUESTIONS, SHE’S GOT ANSWERSQ My problem is computer gaming.

It works its way up the food chain, and apparently into to some of the most popular fish on the market. Wendy’s doctor, Dr. Jane Hightower, was so suspicious that she began testing her Bay Area patients. All consumed largeamounts of fish, and an overwhelming majority tested high for mercury in their systems.―I was seeing hair loss, fatigue, muscle ache, headache, feeling just an ill feeling.‖Hightowersaid.The symptoms began to clear up when Hightower cut the amount of fish in their diets. ―It was so obvious, but the problem was still unknown to the public,‖she said. ―I even wanted to rent a tent and a tambourine.‖(A tambourine is a small one-sided drum with metal disks around its rim.) Her published findings drew national attention. But despite her study, there is still fierce debate over how much fish is safe to eat, and how much mercury consumers are actually eating. So we decided to do our own test.According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), the safe level of mercury intake for a 120-pound woman like Wendy is a little over 38 micrograms per week. On average, a singleserving of tuna purchased here in the Bay Area contained more mercury than the EPArecommends a woman of Wendy’s size eat for an entire week. Sea bass had nearly twice that level,and swordfish nearly six times th e EPA’s safe mercury intake for a week, in a single serving.While there is little scientific data on how the body reacts to high levels of mercury, it has been linked to symptoms ranging from muscle pain to hair loss, birth defects, and muscle fatigue.And, as in our testing, the evidence is mounting that the larger the fish, the more the exposure.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statement in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81.

Each word can onlybe used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. steadilyB. processesC. environmentalD. displaysE. coveredF. variesG. severeH. influenceI. inheritedJ. fortunatelyMany trees and shrubs change color in fall. For years, scientists have worked hard tounderstand the changes that happen to them. They find that three factors 41 fall’s col orfulfarewell —leaf pigments (色素), length of night, and weather. The timing of the color change ismainly regulated by the increasing length of night. ‖None of the other 42 influences, such as temperature, rainfall, food supply, are as unchanging as the 43 increasing length of nightduring fall. As days grow shorter, and nights grow longer and cooler, biochemical 44 inleaves begin to paint the landscape with an explosion of colors. And Nature puts on one of itsmost splendid 45 of beauty.The timing of the color change 46 by species. Some species in southern forests canbecome vividly colorful in late summer while all other species are still vigorously green. Oaks puton their colors long after other species have already shed their leaves. These differences in timing among species seem to be genetically 47 , for a particular species, whether on a high mountain or in warmer lowlands, will change color at the same time.However, some species are evergreens. Pines, for example, are green all the year roundbecause they have toughened up. They have developed over the years a needle-like or scale-like foliage (绿叶植物), which is 48 with a heavy wax coating. And the liquid inside their cellscontains cold-resistant elements. So the leaves of evergreens can safely withstand (经受住) all butthe most 49 winter conditions, such as those in the Arctic.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Every year the United States exports ―cultural products‖to the rest of the world while it only imports similar products from other countries equal to about one percent of the amount exported.Movies, for example, are one such 50 . The movie industry in countries like England andItaly is almost completely 51 on American exports. Both countries report that 85% to 95%of all movie tickets sold each year are for movies produced in the United States. Millions of peopleworldwide buy American pop, rap, and rock music. Billions of people drink Coca-Cola and eatMcDonald’s hamburgers. ‖American software 52 the computer market.Can all of the above products be called ―cultural‖, however? That depends on how one 53culture. Most people 54 culture into two forms: ―high‖culture and ―low‖culture. Highculture is the kind produced by writers arid 55 . It is more concerned with stimulating thoughtin the people who view or use it and does not 56 care how marketable people find it. Lowculture, 57 , is viewed as a product usually for entertainment and is only as good as how wellit sells. Because it is 58 by masses of people, this type of culture can also be called ―massculture‖. The 59 between low and high culture are not very clear.Pierre Guerlain, a professor of English and American Studies in France, points out that whena cultural product is imported, the product cannot cover the existing culture, thus 60 it. Theimported product is changed to adapt to the local context. Anyone who believes that a societywhich imports American products of mass culture will become a 61 of America is beingnaive (幼稚的). ‖American may seem to have the strongest hand in exporting cultural products, but there is a boomerang (相反的) 62 for being more of an exporter than importer. Because Europeansand Japanese import so many cultural products from the United States, they know a lot more about American culture 63 than Americans know about European or Japanese culture. It is adefinite advantage for the Europeans and Japanese to be bilingual as well as bicultural. Thesecountries can use their knowledge of American society and 64 to increase their chances of success in the American market.50. A. aspect B. product C. example D. project51. A. fixed B. emphasized C. called D. dependent52. A. dominates B. abandons C. enters D. grasps53. A. defines B. presents C. absorbs D. creates54. A. prefer B. divide C. alter D. view55. A. designers B. technicians C. composers D. artists56. A. comprehensively B. temporarily C. necessarily D. representatively57. A. as a result B. as a whole C. on the average D. on the other hand58.

A. values B. economy C. policies D. characteristicsSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinishedstatements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Until recently, the ―science of the future‖was supposed to be electronics and artificial intelligence. Today it seems more and more likely that the next great breakthroughs in technology will be brought through a combination of those two sciences with organic chemistry and genetic engineering. This combination is the science of biotechnology.Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic materials. However, it is stilldifficult to manufacture anything that has the property of wool to conserve (保存) heat and also toabsorb moisture. Nothing that we have been able to produce so far comes anywhere near thecombination of strength, lightness and flexibility that we find in the bodies of ordinary insects.Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in ―growing‖a material that has many of the characteristics of human skin. The next step may well be ―biotech hearts and eyes‖which can replace diseased organs in human beings. These will not be rejected by the body, as is the case with organs from humans.The application of biotechnology to energy production seems even more promising. In 1996the famous science fiction writer, Arthur C. Clarke, many of whose previous predictions havecome true, said that we may soon be able to develop, remarkably cheap and renewable sources ofenergy. Some of these power sources will be biological. Clarke and others have warned usrepeatedly that sooner or later we will have to give up our dependence on non-renewable powersources. Coal, oil and gas are indeed convenient. However, using them also means creatingdangerously high levels of pollution. It will be impossible to meet the growing demand for energywithout increasing that pollution to disastrous levels unless we develop power sources that areboth cheaper and cleaner. ‖It is attempting to think that biotechnology or some other ―science of the future‖can solve our problems. Before we surrender to that temptation we should remember nuclear power. Only a few generations ago it seemed to promise limitless, cheap and safe energy. Today those promises lie buried in a concrete grave in a place called Chernobyl, in the Ukraine. Biotechnology is unlikely, however, to break its promises in quite the same or such a dangerous way.65. The materials produced with organic chemistry are _____ at present.A. not as good as natural materialsB. as good as an insect’s bodyC. better than natural materialsD. as good as wool66. According to the passage, it may soon be possible _____.A. to transplant human organsB. to make something as good as human skinC. to produce drugs without side effectsD. to make artificial hearts and eyes67. In 1996, Arthur C. Clarke predicted that _____.A. the Chernobyl disaster would happen in two yearsB. oil, gas and coal could be repeatedly used in the futureC. biological power sources would be put into use soonD. we will never stop using non-renewable power sources68. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. Biological power will keep all its promises.B. Biological power is cheaper than nuclear power.C. Biotechnology can solve all our future energy problems.D. Biological power may not be as risky as nuclear power.(B)We’ve all been there, finishing a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downing cookie after cookie while cramming (死记硬背) for a big test. But when done a lot —especially without realizing it —emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being.Not many of us make the connection between eating and our feelings. But understanding what drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it. ‖One of the biggest myths (荒诞的说法) about emotional eating is that it’s driven by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like th e romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce. More often,though, it’s the coun tless little daily stresses that cause someone to seek comfort or distraction infood.Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is given candy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done. A kid who is given cookies as a way to stop crying may learn to link cookies with comfort. It’s not easy t o ―unlearn‖patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it starts with an awareness of what’s going on.We’re all emotional eaters to some extent (who hasn’t suddenly found room for dessert after a filling dinner?). But for some people, emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain.The trouble with emotional eating (aside from the health issues) is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain. And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you did. That’s why it helps to know the d ifferences between physical hunger and emotional hunger. ‖Next time you reach for a snack, check in and see which type of hunger is driving it.69. People turn to emotional eating because _____.A. they are preparing for the testB. they enjoy the pleasure of eatingC. they want to seek comfort or distractionD. they feel better after eating70. By saying ―We’ve all been there‖(Paragraph 1), the author means _____.A. finishing a whole bag of chips out of freedom is badB. we are all emotional eaters to some extentC. our health will be affected by emotional eatingD. people eat more without realizing it71. If you want to break away from the patterns of emotional eating, the first thing you should do is to _____.A. reduce stress and anxietyB. relax and try to lose weightC. stop seeking comfort from foodD. realize what is happening(C)ASK LASKASYOU’VE GOT QUESTIONS, SHE’S GOT ANSWERSQ My problem is computer gaming. I do it day and night, averaging four hours of sleep. I can’t control of this, and I don’t know where to go for help. Do you?PlayerA Dear player,You have an addiction. For some people playing video games releases dopamine, a powerfulbrain chemical that makes you feel good. You’d toss your cigarettes if you were ready to quit,right? To kick the habit, get help from a health professional. And don’t look for help on line; that would be like an alcoholic going to the bar for advice. ‖Q My brother’s wife just had triplets (三胞胎). This is such a joy! Yet every time I share the news with co-workers, they ask me if she was on fertility pills. I think this is rude — or has society just become so talk-show numbed (麻木的) that you can ask anyone anything? No Show HostA Dear Host,Yes. Our society has become increasingly disrespectful of privacy. But don’t blame it all onthe talk shows. Continue to celebrate and greet impolite questions with stony silence. Their fertilityhistory i s nobody’s business but their own.Q I work at an amusement park, and my manager steals supplies. She has a catering business on the side, and we’ve seen her load up her van at the back gates. The big bosses think she the best thing since buttered brea d, and we’re all afraid that if we say nothing, we’ll lose our jobs. What can we do? RighteousA Dear Righteous,Be sure you’re right. You must have evidence about what and why things are going out theback gates. Once you know for certain, it’s tim e to go to the bosses and report what you have seen.Q My stepson’s wife so metimes leaves their eight-year-old home alone for ―a short run to the store.‖That may be an hour or so. I believe by law we should report it. What do you think?The In-lawsA Dear Laws,I don’t know what the child-protection laws in your state are, but I do know that childrenneed care and attention. This child may be able and unafraid, but kids aren’t always careful. It alsosounds like there is stress in your family relationship. One thing you can do to help this situation is offer to baby-sit when Mom needs to step out.72. Which of the following statements is true?A. Dopamine is a powerful brain chemical good to our health.B. Looking for help on line is like getting help from a health professional.C. Player is a video game addict who smokes and sleeps few hours.D. Player is advised to stay clear of the screen. ‖73. According to the Q&A, _____.A. Host’s colleagues are insensitiveB. The talk-show is to blameC. Somebody’s business is everybody’sD. Host’s sister-in-law was on fertility pills74. What we can infer from the Q&A is _____.A. The Mom is not to blame because she needs a short run to the storeB. Children need care and attention, though not for all of themC. Laws, the old lady, wants to report what she sees to the child’s fatherD. LASKAS doesn’t seem to approve of Laws’ trying to report what she sees75. Which Q&A mentioned transport?A. The first.B. The second. ‖C. The third.D. None.Section CDirections: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. Illegal hunting has caused a decrease in the number of sea turtles.B. Most turtles are eaten by Mexicans and Mexican Americans.C. A campaign to protect sea turtles. ‖D. Many people kill and eat turtles in a religious observance.E. Government should prevent sea turtle hunting to increase the number of the species.F. A letter was written to Pope to save endangered sea turtles.76.Environmental groups in the United States are leading a campaign to save thousands of endangered sea turtles. ‖They have asked Pope John Paul the Second to ban turtle meat during the Christian religious observance known as Lent. Christians observe Lent in preparation for the holiday of Easter.77.Environmental groups say illegal turtle hunting is one of the major threats to endangered sea turtles in southern California and Mexico. It has been illegal to harvest and eat sea turtle meat in Mexico for more than ten years. However, demand for sea turtle meat is widespread in both Southern California and Mexico. Biologists believe that illegal hunting is one of the main reasons for the sharp drop in sea turtle populations during the past thirty years.78.The week before Easter Sunday is an especially deadly time for the turtles. As many as 5,000 turtles are killed during this time each year. Many Mexicans and Mexican Americans eat turtle meat during the days before Easter. Many people do not eat meat during this holy time in order to obey the rules of Lent. Because sea turtles swim, many people consider them to be fish. Fish is permitted during Lent.79.The Sea Turtle Conservation Network is a union of fishermen, environmental activists and researchers. They sent a letter to Pope John Paul, urging the Roman Catholic Church leader to officially declare that sea turtle flesh is meat, not fish or seafood. They say thousands of these endangered animals would be saved if people did not eat them during this religious period. The letter also asked members of the Catholic Church to obey laws banning the capture of turtles in Mexico and the United States. ‖80.About 35,000 endangered sea turtles are killed illegally near the coasts of Baja, Californiaeach year. Studies have shown a sharp drop in the numbers of females. They travel from as faraway as Japan to lay their eggs on local beaches. Environmental activists say hunting sea turtlesfor their meat is the main barrier to the recovery of the species. They have urged the governmentsof the United States and Mexico to improve enforcement of the ban on sea turtle harvesting.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully and answer the questions or complete the statements in no more than 12 words.―Severe fatigue (疲乏), very weak. I could barely walk down the block,‖says Wendy Moro. Why, she wondered, then, Wendy and her doctor begin to suspect her plate. ―A few times a week I was having fish, whether it was once or four times,‖says Wendy. ―What kind of fish?

For years, scientists have worked hard tounderstand the changes that happen to them. They find that three factors 41 fall’s col orful farewell —leaf pigments (色素), length of night, and weather. The timing of the color change is mainly regulated by the increasing length of night. ‖None of the other 42 influences, such as temperature, rainfall, food supply, are as unchanging as the 43 increasing length of night during fall. As days grow shorter, and nights grow longer and cooler, biochemical 44 inleaves begin to paint the landscape with an explosion of colors. And Nature puts on one of its most splendid 45 of beauty.The timing of the color change 46 by species. Some species in southern forests canbecome vividly colorful in late summer while all other species are still vigorously green. Oaks put on their colors long after other species have already shed their leaves. These differences in timing among species seem to be genetically 47 , for a particular species, whether on a highmountain or in warmer lowlands, will change color at the same time.However, some species are evergreens. Pines, for example, are green all the year roundbecause they have toughened up. They have developed over the years a needle-like or scale-like foliage (绿叶植物), which is 48 with a heavy wax coating. And the liquid inside their cells contains cold-resistant elements. So the leaves of evergreens can safely withstand (经受住) all butthe most 49 winter conditions, such as those in the Arctic.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B,C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Every year the United States exports ―cultural products‖to the rest of the world while it only imports similar products from other countries equal to about one percent of the amount exported.Movies, for example, are one such 50 . The movie industry in countries like England andItaly is almost completely 51 on American exports. Both countries report that 85% to 95%of all movie tickets sold each year are for movies produced in the United States. Millions of people worldwide buy American pop, rap, and rock music. Billions of people drink Coca-Cola and eat McDonald’s hamburgers. ‖American software 52 the computer market.Can all of the above products be called ―cultural‖, however? That depends on how one 53 culture. Most people 54 culture into two forms: ―high‖culture and ―low‖culture. High culture is the kind produced by writers arid 55 . It is more concerned with stimulating thought in the people who view or use it and does not 56 care how marketable people find it. Low culture, 57 , is viewed as a product usually for entertainment and is only as good as how well it sells. Because it is 58 by masses of people, this type of culture can also be called ―mass culture‖. The 59 between low and high culture are not very clear.Pierre Guerlain, a professor of English and American Studies in France, points out that whena cultural product is imported, the product cannot cover the existing culture, thus 60 it. Theimported product is changed to adapt to the local context. Anyone who believes that a society which imports American products of mass culture will become a 61 of America is beingnaive (幼稚的). ‖American may seem to have the strongest hand in exporting cultural products, but there is a boomerang (相反的) 62 for being more of an exporter than importer. Because Europeans and Japanese import so many cultural products from the United States, they know a lot more about American culture 63 than Americans know about European or Japanese culture. It is a definite advantage for the Europeans and Japanese to be bilingual as well as bicultural. Thesecountries can use their knowledge of American society and 64 to increase their chances of success in the American market.50. A. aspect B. product C. example D. project51.

A. values B. economy C. policies D. characteristicsSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Until recently, the ―science of the future‖was supposed to be electronics and artificial intelligence. Today it seems more and more likely that the next great breakthroughs in technology will be brought through a combination of those two sciences with organic chemistry and genetic engineering. This combination is the science of biotechnology.Organic chemistry enables us to produce marvelous synthetic materials. However, it is stilldifficult to manufacture anything that has the property of wool to conserve (保存) heat and also to absorb moisture. Nothing that we have been able to produce so far comes anywhere near the combination of strength, lightness and flexibility that we find in the bodies of ordinary insects.Nevertheless, scientists in the laboratory have already succeeded in ―growing‖a material that has many of the characteristics of human skin. The next step may well be ―biotech hearts and eyes‖which can replace diseased organs in human beings. These will not be rejected by the body, as is the case with organs from humans.The application of biotechnology to energy production seems even more promising. In 1996the famous science fiction writer, Arthur C. Clarke, many of whose previous predictions havecome true, said that we may soon be able to develop, remarkably cheap and renewable sources of energy. Some of these power sources will be biological. Clarke and others have warned usrepeatedly that sooner or later we will have to give up our dependence on non-renewable power sources. Coal, oil and gas are indeed convenient. However, using them also means creatingdangerously high levels of pollution. It will be impossible to meet the growing demand for energy without increasing that pollution to disastrous levels unless we develop power sources that are both cheaper and cleaner. ‖It is attempting to think that biotechnology or some other ―science of the future‖can solve our problems. Before we surrender to that temptation we should remember nuclear power. Only a few generations ago it seemed to promise limitless, cheap and safe energy. Today those promises lie buried in a concrete grave in a place called Chernobyl, in the Ukraine. Biotechnology is unlikely, however, to break its promises in quite the same or such a dangerous way.65. The materials produced with organic chemistry are _____ at present.A. not as good as natural materialsB. as good as an insect’s bodyC. better than natural materialsD. as good as wool66. According to the passage, it may soon be possible _____.A. to transplant human organsB. to make something as good as human skinC. to produce drugs without side effectsD. to make artificial hearts and eyes67. In 1996, Arthur C. Clarke predicted that _____.A. the Chernobyl disaster would happen in two yearsB. oil, gas and coal could be repeatedly used in the futureC. biological power sources would be put into use soonD. we will never stop using non-renewable power sources68. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. Biological power will keep all its promises.B. Biological power is cheaper than nuclear power.C. Biotechnology can solve all our future energy problems.D. Biological power may not be as risky as nuclear power.(B)We’ve all been there, finishing a whole bag of chips out of boredom or downing cookie after cookie while cramming (死记硬背) for a big test. But when done a lot —especially without realizing it —emotional eating can affect weight, health, and overall well-being.Not many of us make the connection between eating and our feelings. But understanding what drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it. ‖One of the biggest myths (荒诞的说法) about emotional eating is that it’s driven by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they’re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious, or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too, like the romance of sharing dessert on Valentine’s Day or the celebration of a holiday feast.Sometimes emotional eating is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce. More often,though, it’s the coun tless little daily stresses that cause someone to seek comfort or distraction in food.Emotional eating patterns can be learned: A child who is given candy after a big achievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done. A kid who is given cookies as a way to stop crying may learn to link cookies with comfort. It’s not easy t o ―unlearn‖patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it starts with an awareness of what’s going on.We’re all emotional eaters to some extent (who hasn’t suddenly found room for dessert after a filling dinner?). But for some people, emotional eating can be a real problem, causing serious weight gain.The trouble with emotional eating (aside from the health issues) is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain. And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you did. That’s why it helps to know the d ifferences between physical hunger and emotional hunger. ‖Next time you reach for a snack, check in and see which type of hunger is driving it.69. People turn to emotional eating because _____.A. they are preparing for the testB. they enjoy the pleasure of eatingC. they want to seek comfort or distractionD. they feel better after eating70. By saying ―We’ve all been there‖(Paragraph 1), the author means _____.A. finishing a whole bag of chips out of freedom is badB. we are all emotional eaters to some extentC. our health will be affected by emotional eatingD. people eat more without realizing it71. If you want to break away from the patterns of emotional eating, the first thing you should dois to _____.A. reduce stress and anxietyB. relax and try to lose weightC. stop seeking comfort from foodD. realize what is happening(C)ASK LASKASYOU’VE GOT QUESTIONS, SHE’S GOT ANSWERSQ My problem is computer gaming. I do it day and night, averaging four hours of sleep. I can’t control of this, and I don’t know where to go for help. Do you?PlayerA Dear player,You have an addiction. For some people playing video games releases dopamine, a powerful brain chemical that makes you feel good. You’d toss your cigarettes if you were ready to quit,right? To kick the habit, get help from a health professional. And don’t look for help on line; that would be like an alcoholic going to the bar for advice. ‖Q My brother’s wife just had triplets (三胞胎). This is such a joy! Yet every time I share the news with co-workers, they ask me if she was on fertility pills. I think this is rude — or has society just become so talk-show numbed (麻木的) that you can ask anyone anything? No Show HostA Dear Host,Yes. Our society has become increasingly disrespectful of privacy. But don’t blame it all onthe talk shows. Continue to celebrate and greet impolite questions with stony silence. Their fertilityhistory i s nobody’s business but their own.Q I work at an amusement park, and my manager steals supplies. She has a catering business on the side, and we’ve seen her load up her van at the back gates. The big bosses think she the best thing since buttered brea d, and we’re all afraid that if we say nothing, we’ll lose our jobs. What can we do? RighteousA Dear Righteous,Be sure you’re right. You must have evidence about what and why things are going out theback gates. Once you know for certain, it’s tim e to go to the bosses and report what you have seen.Q My stepson’s wife so metimes leaves their eight-year-old home alone for ―a short run to the store.‖That may be an hour or so. I believe by law we should report it. What do you think?The In-lawsA Dear Laws,I don’t know what the child-protection laws in your state are, but I do know that childrenneed care and attention. This child may be able and unafraid, but kids aren’t always careful. It also sounds like there is stress in your family relationship. One thing you can do to help this situation is offer to baby-sit when Mom needs to step out.72. Which of the following statements is true?A. Dopamine is a powerful brain chemical good to our health.B. Looking for help on line is like getting help from a health professional.C. Player is a video game addict who smokes and sleeps few hours.D. Player is advised to stay clear of the screen. ‖73. According to the Q&A, _____.A. Host’s colleagues are insensitiveB. The talk-show is to blameC. Somebody’s business is everybody’sD. Host’s sister-in-law was on fertility pills74. What we can infer from the Q&A is _____.A. The Mom is not to blame because she needs a short run to the storeB. Children need care and attention, though not for all of themC. Laws, the old lady, wants to report what she sees to the child’s fatherD. LASKAS doesn’t seem to approve of Laws’ trying to report what she sees75. Which Q&A mentioned transport?A. The first.B. The second. ‖C. The third.D. None.Section CDirections: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. Illegal hunting has caused a decrease in the number of sea turtles.B. Most turtles are eaten by Mexicans and Mexican Americans.C. A campaign to protect sea turtles. ‖D. Many people kill and eat turtles in a religious observance.E. Government should prevent sea turtle hunting to increase the number of the species.F. A letter was written to Pope to save endangered sea turtles.76.Environmental groups in the United States are leading a campaign to save thousands of endangered sea turtles. ‖They have asked Pope John Paul the Second to ban turtle meat during the Christian religious observance known as Lent. Christians observe Lent in preparation for the holiday of Easter.77.Environmental groups say illegal turtle hunting is one of the major threats to endangered sea turtles in southern California and Mexico. It has been illegal to harvest and eat sea turtle meat in Mexico for more than ten years. However, demand for sea turtle meat is widespread in both Southern California and Mexico. Biologists believe that illegal hunting is one of the main reasons for the sharp drop in sea turtle populations during the past thirty years.78.The week before Easter Sunday is an especially deadly time for the turtles. As many as 5,000 turtles are killed during this time each year. Many Mexicans and Mexican Americans eat turtle meat during the days before Easter. Many people do not eat meat during this holy time in order to obey the rules of Lent. Because sea turtles swim, many people consider them to be fish. Fish is permitted during Lent.79.The Sea Turtle Conservation Network is a union of fishermen, environmental activists and researchers. They sent a letter to Pope John Paul, urging the Roman Catholic Church leader to officially declare that sea turtle flesh is meat, not fish or seafood. They say thousands of these endangered animals would be saved if people did not eat them during this religious period. The letter also asked members of the Catholic Church to obey laws banning the capture of turtles in Mexico and the United States. ‖80.About 35,000 endangered sea turtles are killed illegally near the coasts of Baja, Californiaeach year. Studies have shown a sharp drop in the numbers of females. They travel from as far away as Japan to lay their eggs on local beaches. Environmental activists say hunting sea turtles for their meat is the main barrier to the recovery of the species. They have urged the governments of the United States and Mexico to improve enforcement of the ban on sea turtle harvesting.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully and answer the questions or complete the statements in no more than 12 words.―Severe fatigue (疲乏), very weak. I could barely walk down the block,‖says Wendy Moro. Why, she wondered, then, Wendy and her doctor begin to suspect her plate. ―A few times a week I was having fish, whether it was once or four times,‖says Wendy. ―What kind of fish? Swordfish, tuna and sea bass, the highest mercury-content (汞含量) fish sold in the commercial market,‖says Dr. Jane Hightower.Mercury enters the ocean with commercial pollution. It works its way up the food chain, andapparently into to some of the most popular fish on the market. Wendy’s doctor, Dr. JaneHightower, was so suspicious that she began testing her Bay Area patients. All consumed large amounts of fish, and an overwhelming majority tested high for mercury in their systems.―I was seeing hair loss, fatigue, muscle ache, headache, feeling just an ill feeling.‖Hightower said.The symptoms began to clear up when Hightower cut the amount of fish in their diets. ―Itwas so obvious, but the problem was still unknown to the public,‖she said. ―I even wanted to rent a tent and a tambourine.‖(A tambourine is a small one-sided drum with metal disks around its rim.) Her published findings drew national attention. But despite her study, there is still fierce debate over how much fish is safe to eat, and how much mercury consumers are actually eating. So we decided to do our own test.According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), the safe level of mercury intakefor a 120-pound woman like Wendy is a little over 38 micrograms per week. On average, a singleserving of tuna purchased here in the Bay Area contained more mercury than the EPArecommends a woman of Wendy’s size eat for an entire week. Sea bass had nearly twice that level, and swordfish nearly six times th e EPA’s safe mercury intake for a week, in a single serving.While there is little scientific data on how the body reacts to high levels of mercury, it hasbeen linked to symptoms ranging from muscle pain to hair loss, birth defects, and muscle fatigue.And, as in our testing, the evidence is mounting that the larger the fish, the more the exposure.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statement in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81. The popular fish on the market obtain mercury through _____ and _____.82. When Dr. Hightower ―wanted to rent a tent and a tambourine‖, she meant to _____.83. What did Dr. Hightower do with the information she discovered?84. What should people do according to the test done by the EPA?第II 卷(共45 分)I.
