One way is the greater production of common energy sources, such as coal, oil and gas. The trouble with these sources, however, is that they are not renewable(可再生的).Another way is energy conservation(节能), which means using energy more efficiently. In some very cold countries, people build special houses to save energy. They place materials between the inside and outside of the walls of the house to keep the cold out and the warmth in.Finally, renewable energy sources are used even though they are often expensive to develop. One form of these is geothermal energy(地热). In certain parts of the world, the temperature of the earth increases thirty degrees centigrade(摄氏)with each kilometer down. At six kilometers, therefore, it rises to nearly two hundred degrees. Heat from the earth is already used in some countries.6.Four different ways of dealing with energy problems are talked about in the passage.A.TB.F答案:B7.We can learn from the passage that coal is the most common source of energy.A.TB.F答案:B8.Special houses are built because they can save energy.A.TB.F答案:A9.According to the passage, geothermal energy is heat inside the earth.A.TB.F答案:A10.At four km deep, the temperature of the earth rises to nearly 200°C.A.TB.F答案:BOne day a bookseller(书商)let a big box of books fall on his foot. "Go to see the doctor," said his wife. "No, "he said. "I'll wait until the doctor comes into the shop next time. Then I'll ask him about my foot. If I go to see him, I'll have to pay him."On the next day the doctor came into the shop for some books. When the bookseller was getting them ready, he told the doctor about his bad foot. The doctor looked at it."You must put that foot in hot water every night. Then you must put something on it," said the doctor.He took out a piece of paper and wrote on it. "Buy this and put it on the foot before you go to bed every night," he said."Thank you," said the bookseller. "And now, sir, here are your books.""How much?" said the doctor."Two pounds.""Good," said the doctor. "I shall not have to pay you anything.""Why?" asked the bookseller."I told you about your foot. I want two pounds for that. If people come to my house, I ask them to pay one pound for a small thing like that. But when I go to their houses, I want two pounds. And I came here, didn't I?"11.What happened to the bookseller one day?A.He lost a box of books.B.His foot was wounded by a box of books.C.He lent the doctor a box of books.D.He sold out all his books.答案:B12.The bookseller's wife asked him ______.A.to go out for some medicineB.to send somebody for a doctorC.to go to see the doctorD.to wait for the doctor to come答案:C13.The bookseller didn't take his wife's advice because ______.A.he was afraid of the doctorB.he didn't like to take medicineC.he couldn't walk by himselfD.he didn't want to pay the doctor答案:D14.The doctor paid ______ for the books.A.one poundB.two poundsC.nothingD.something答案:C15.The bookseller paid ______ money for seeing the doctor in the end.A.moreB.lessC.the same amount ofD.no答案:A三、词汇与语法16.The news made the old lady very ______.A.sadderB.sadC.sadlyD.sadness答案:A17.A number of people _____at the street corner.A.amB.isC.areD.be答案:C18.Measles(麻疹) ________ a long time to get over.A.spendB.spendsC.takeD.takes答案:D19.Tom ________ more than twenty pounds on the novel.A.spentB.paidC.costD.took答案:A20.Eggs, though rich in nourishments, have ______ of fat.A.a large numberB.the large numberC.a large amountD.the large amount答案:C四、完型填空Since his retirement, one day was just like any other day for John Smith.

I think that his words really_______.A. countB. discountC. verbalizeD. motivatePart II Reading comprehension (阅读理解)(每小题1分,共15分)Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Shortly after the war, my brother and I were invited to spend a few days’ holiday with an uncle who had just returned from abroad. He rented a cottage in the country, although he rarely spent much time there. The cottage, however, had no comfortable furniture in it, many of the windows were broken and the roof leaked, making the whole house damp.On our first evening, we sat around the fire after supper listening to the stories our uncle had had to tell of his many adventures in distant countries. I was so tired after the long train journey that I would have preferred to go to bed, but I could not bear to miss any of my uncle’s exciting tales.He was just in the middle of describing a rather terrifying experience he had, when there was a loud crash from the bedroom above, the one where my brother and I were going to sleep.“It sounds as if the roof has fallen in!” shouted my uncle, with a loud laugh.When we got to the top of the stairs and opened the bedroom door, a strange sight met oureyes. A large part of the ceiling had collapsed (), falling right on to the pillow of my bed. I was glad that I had stayed up late to listen to my uncle’s stories, otherwise I should certainly have been seriously injured, perhaps killed.That nigh we all slept on the floor of the sitting room downstairs not wishing to risk our lives by sleeping under a roof which might at any moment collapse on our heads. We left for London the very next morning and my uncle gave up his cottage in the country. This was not the kind of adventure he cared for, either!31. What does the writer say about his uncle during the war?A、He made a lot of money.B、He enjoyed many of his adventures.C、He had a lot of adventures.D、He fought as a soldier.32. When did the story most likely happen?A、In the spring.B、In the summer.C、In the fall.D、In the winter.33. Why did the writer wish to go to bed at first?A、He thought his uncle’s stories would be boring.B、He was really tired from the long journey.C、He had the habit of going to bed early.D、His uncle’s stories made him sleepy.34. Why was the writer glad after the accident?A、He realized he would have a good sleep.B、He had heard many exciting stories.C、He had a narrow escape from death.D、He had experienced a great adventure.35. What did the writer’s uncle most likely do with the cottage after the accident?A、He bought it and had it repaired.B、He gave it to his neighbors.C、He sold it to others.D、He returned it to the landlord.Passage TwoQuestions 36 to 40are based on the following passage:Insurance is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone is exposed to risks of some sort. The house owner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the ship owner knows that his vessel may be lost at sea; the father knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family the poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire, nor every vessel lost at sea. If these persons each put a small sum into a pool, there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer loss. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who pay the contributions are known as “insured” and those who control the pool of contributions as “insurer”.Not all risks lend themselves to being covered by insurance. Broadly speaking, the ordinary risks of business cannot be covered. The risk that buyers will not buy goods at the prices offered is not a kind that can be estimated in numbers and risks can only be insured against if they can be estimated.The legal basis of all insurance is the “policy”. This is a printed form of contract on thick paper of the best quality. It states that in return for regular payment by the insured of a named sum of money, called the “premium”, which is usually paid every year, the insurer will pay a sum of money for loss, if the risk or event insured against actually happens.36. Why does the writer mention the father in the passage?A、The writer uses the father as an example to illustrate his point.B、The writer believes the father knows better than the mother.C、The writer wants to persuade the father to buy insurance.D、The writer wishes to set an example for fathers.37. Which of the following can be covered by insurance?A、All risks of business.B、All houses damaged by fire.C、Goods with clearly marked prices.D、Things whose values can be estimated.38. What do insurers firmly believe?A、People don’t like to spend their money.B、No one can avoid any risks.C、Almost all people trust insurance.D、Most people like to help others.39. What does “premium” (Para.3)most probably mean in the passage?A、The money paid by the insured.B、A printed form of contract.C、The money paid for the loss.D、The contributions of insurers.40. What is the main idea of the passage?A、Insurance is a way of sharing risks among people.B、Insurance has a solid legal basis.C、Only a few people suffer loss in their daily life.D、Insurance is not worth buying.Passage ThreeQuestions 41 to 46 are based on the following passage:Kate, a student in 8th grade, asked lots of questions in math class—until the teacher told her to stop. “He said I was confusing the other kids with my questions,” she recalls. “When boys asked questions, he took them a lot more seriously.”You might have thought that such obvious forms of discrimination (歧视)had ended by now. But Esther Green glass, a psychology professor at York University in Toronto, says many recent studies have found that girls may still be faced with mixed messages about self-confidence and success, which can lower their self-esteem and discourage them from achieving their potential.The problem worsens at about age 11 or 12, when girls start hitting puberty (青春期)and discovering boys. Many girls’ grades drop, and so does their self-esteem. “Girls get the message that, if you’re going to be popular, you can’t be too smart because the boys won’t like you,” says Green glass, who has written extensively on sex roles and discrimination.Often, girls also sense that boys are considered more capable. In studies in the United States, researchers found that when teachers asked questions, they almost always made eye con?tact with boys, unless they had attended courses raising their level of awareness. Adding to the problem, according to Green glass, is the lack of female role models in old textbooks still found in many Canadian schools.How are girls’ attitudes affected? Studies have shown that boys usually attribute their success to their superior ability, while girls attribute their own success to luck. When boys fail at a task, they tend to blame it on external factors; when girls fail, they blame their own lack of ability. Boys are more likely to try a second time to succeed.41. The first paragraph intends to tell us that _______.A、girls usually ask more questions than boys in classB、girls often confuse teachers with many questionsC、teachers tend to give much more attention to boysD、teachers believe that boys ask more serious questions42. Findings by Professor Esther Greenglass indicate that _______.A、sex discrimination in schools has disappeared in CanadaB、Canadian school girls are more self-confident than boysC、school girls in Canada are confused about their rolesD、in Canada girls and boys achieve equal success at school43. Researchers in the United States found that when teachers asked questions, _______.A、they would first turned to boys for answersB、they wanted to raise the awareness of boysC、boys responded to them ImmediatelyD、girls avoided eye contact with teachers44. We can learn from the passage that girls' lack of self-confidence has led to _______.A、their misjudgment of their own success and failureB、boys’ misunderstanding of their superiorityC、their inability to achieve academic successD、boys’ blaming external factors for their failu res45. What is the best title of the passage?A、Male and Female Role Models.B、Puberty and Sex Difference.C、Girls, Boys, and Success.D、Sex Roles and Discrimination.Part III Fill in the blanks (选择填空)((每小题1分,共10分))46. We should do something _______ just talking about it.47. After hard work, we usually ______ by going to the movies at the weekend.48.

For each question there are four sug gested answers marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the best answe r and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 26-30 are based on Passage One:Go ahead, laugh. It’s strong medicine, r esearchers are learning. Even the physical act is good for you, says William Fry, professor at Stanford University and pioneer in laughter research. It increases b lood flow and contracts abdominal muscles. But the benefits go beyond a workout. The most ast onishing evidence of laughter’s power comes from a 1997 study of 48 heart-attack patients. Half-watched comedy sh ows for 30 minutes every day; the rest served as controls. After a ye ar, ten patients in the control group had suffered repeat heart attac ks, compared with only two in the group that watched the shows.Can a good laugh help patients get well? In an experiment at the Univ ersity of California at Los Angeles, called Rx Laughter, scientists p lan to test the effect of laughter in children with serious illnesses, including cancer. Early results suggest that funny videos help kids handle uncomfortable or painful procedures.Justin Ybarra, 13, already knows that. He was in considerable pain wh en he woke up from surgery --- until Bill Marx, a volunteer for Rx La ughter, appeared at his bedside. Marx told jokes, made faces and danc ing around the hospital room. “Having something to laugh at took my mind off the pain,” says Justin. “When you’re laughing, you can’t help but feel better.”26. The author implies that ________.A) a good laugh helps one recoverB) funny videos help patients get wellC) children are fond of jokes and funny moviesD) even there’s nothing to laugh at, the act of laughing benefits27. RX Laughter is the name of ________.A) a kind of laughter B) a scientific labC) an experiment D) a laughter research center28. Laughter benefits the patients because ________.A) it makes them stronger B) it can cure their illnessesC) it help them recover more quickly D) it controls their blood flo w29. Justin said laughter could make him ________.A) exercise his abdominal muscle B) have a better appetiteC) excited and happy D) forget the pain from the surgery30. The main idea of the passage is ________.A) researchers are doing experiments on laughterB) laughing is good medicine for the patientsC) patients usually prefer comedies to tragediesD) children all like clowns very muchQuestions 31-35 are based on Passage Two:Under proper conditions, sound waves will be reflected from a hil lside or other such obstruction. Sound travels at the rate of about o ne fifth of a mile per second. If the hill is eleven hundred feet awa y, it takes two seconds for the sound to travel to the hill and back. Thus, by timing the interval between a sound and its reflection (the echo), you can estimate the distance to an obstruction.During World War II the British used a practical application of this principle to detect German planes on their way to bomb London long be fore the enemy was near the target. They used radio waves instead of sound waves, since radio waves can penetrate fog and clouds. The outn umbered Royal Air Force (RAF) always seemed to the puzzled Germans to be lying in wait at the right time and never to be surprised. It was radio echoes more than anything else that won the battle of Britain. Since the radio waves were used to tell the direction in which to send the RAF planes and the distance to send them (Their range of light, in other words), the device was called radio directing and ranging, and from the initials the word radar (雷达) was coined.31. Sound waves reflected from a hill can be used to estimate the ___ _____.A) height of the hill B) speed of soundC) distance to the hill D) intensity of sound32. The estimate is based on the ________.A) direction of the hill B) accepted speed of soundC) interval between sound and echo D) both B and C33. Practical application of this principle resulted in ________.A) new electronic instruments for planesB) a radio directing and ranging deviceC) new radio sets for RAF bomberD) an electronic detecting device34. Radar enabled the English to ________.A) detect German planes on their way to LondonB) direct the outnumbered RAF planes effectivelyC) confuse German bomber pilotD) both A and B35. The British used radio waves because they ________.A) were more exact than sound waves B) could not be detectedC) could penetrate fog and clouds D) were easier to use than sound wavesQuestions 36-40 are based on Passage Three:Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that one’s muscles also parti cipate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies.You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to mu sic not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their bo dy or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one lis tens to a symphonic (交响乐) concert on the radio, he is tempted to d irect the orchestra even though he knows there is a competent conduct or on the job.Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he partici pates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener “feels” himsel f into the music with more or less pronounced motions of his body. The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process ofthinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious bec ause it is less pronounced.36. Some psychologists maintain that thinking is ________.A) not a mental processB) more of a physical process than a mental actionC) a process that involves our entire bodiesD) a process that involves the muscles as well as the brain37. The process of thinking and that of listening are similar in that ________.A) both are mental actsB) muscles participate in both processesC) both processes are performed by the entire bodyD) we derive equal enjoyment from them38. The pronounced body motions are a listener’s way of ________.A) “feeling” the musicB) participating in the performanceC) deriving enjoyment from the musicD) all of the above39. Body movements are necessary in order for the listener to _______ _.A) hear the music B) appreciate the musicC) enjoy the music fully D) completely understand the music40. According to selection, muscle participation in the process of th inking is ________.A) deliberate B) obvious C) not readily apparent D) very pronounced Questions 41-45 are based on Passage Four:Chess must be one of the oldest games in the world. An Arab trave ler in India in the year 900 wrote that it was played “long, long ag o”. Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played eve rywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400. The name “chess” is intere sting. When one player is attacking the other’s king, he says, in En glish, “check”. When the king has been caught and cannot move anywh ere, he says “check mate”. These words come from Persian. “Shah ma t” means “the king is dead”. That is when the game is over, and on e player has won.Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could on ly move one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the b oard. It would be interesting to know why this has happened! Chess ta kes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You d on’t have to be a champion in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first time the Amer icans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the c hess masters are able to play many people at the same time. The recor d was when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people play chess by post. This must make chess the slowest game in the world.41. Which of the following is known to be TRUE?A) Chess is an old Indian traveling game.B) Chess is the oldest game in the world.C) Chess was played in Japan and Europe before 1400.D) Chess was played in India long before 900.42.

Which of the following is NOT correct?A) All kinds of people can play chess.B) Only two people sitting at the same table can play chess.C) Some people write to each other while playing chess.D) The Russians lost the game played by radio.45. According to the old rules of the game, ________.A) the queen was the strongest piece on the boardB) the king had to be attacked all the timeC) the queen could move no more than one square at a timeD) the king could not move anywherePart III Vocabulary and Structure (15 points 1×0.5)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

They were born in a hospital in New York in 1943.When they were only two weeks old, their parents were killed in a car accident.

When Susan was twenty-one, she went to live in Australia; but Laura continued to live in New York. Later, Laura discovered that she had a twin sister. And she would like to meet her.

in total)Direction:There are 4passages in this part.Each passage isfollowed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A),B)C)and D).You should decide on the best choice and write down the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet .Passage OneQuestions 21to 25are based on the following passage:Unless we spend money to spot and prevent asteroids (小行星)now,one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it,say some scientists.Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids (流星)that race across the night sky.Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don’t threaten us.But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth.Buy $50million worth of new telescopes right now.Then spend $10million a year for the next 25years to locate most of the space rocks.By the time we spot a fatal one,the scientists say,we’ll have a way to change its course.Some scientists favor pushing asteroids off course with nuclear weapons.But the cost wouldn’t be cheap.Is it worth it?Two things experts consider when judging any risk are:1)How likely the event is;and 2)How bad the consequences if the event occurs.Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000years.Sounds pretty rare-but if one did fall,it would be the end of the world.“If we don’t take care of these big asteroids,they’ll take care of us,”says one scientist.“It’s that simple.”The cure,though,might be worse than the disease.Do we really want fleets of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth?“The world has less to fear from doomsday (毁灭性的)rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them,”said a New York Times article.21.What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids?A)They are heavenly bodies different in composition.B)They are heavenly bodies similar in nature.C)There are more asteroids than meteoroids.D)Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids.22.What do scientists say about the collision of an asteroid with Earth?A)It is very unlikely but the danger exists.B)Such a collision might occur once every 25years.C)Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected.D)It’s still too early to say whether such a collision might occur.23.What do people think of the suggestion of using nuclear weapons to alter the courses of asteroids?A)It sounds practical but it may not solve the problem.B)It may create more problems than it might solve.C)It is a waste of money because a collision of asteroids with Earth is very unlikely.D)Further research should be done before it is proved applicable.45624.We can conclude from the passage that ______________.A)while pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the worldB)asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near futureC)the worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetimeD)workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth25.Which of the following best describes the author’s tone in this passage?A)Optimistic.B)Critical.C)Objective.D)Arbitrary.Passage TwoQuestions 26to 30are based on the following passage:Believe it or not,optical illusion (错觉)can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point.It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75percent using a simple optical illusion.Bent stripes,called chevrons (人字形),painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are,and thus drivers slow down.Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C.is planning to repeat Japan’s success.Starting next year,the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.Excessive speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents,according to the foundation.To help reduce those accidents,the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards are the greatest-curves,exit slopes,traffic circles,and bridges.Some studies suggest that straight,horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half.However,traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.Chevrons,scientists say,not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower.The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway sped and the number of traffic accidents.26.The passage mainly discusses __________.A)a new way of highway speed control B)a new pattern for painting highways C)a new approach to training drivers D)a new type of optical illusion27.On roads painted with chevrons,drivers tend to feel that __________.A)they should avoid speed-related hazards B)they are driving in the wrong lane C)they should slow down their speedC l a s s N a m eS I C n u m b e r E x a m T i m e E x a m R o o m装订线D)they are approaching the speed limit28.The advantage of chevrons over straight,horizontal bars is that the former ___________.A)can keep drivers awakeB)can cut road accidents in halfC)will have a longer effect on drivers D)will look more attractive29.The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to __________.A)try out the Japanese method in certain areas B)change the road signs across the countryC)replace straight,horizontal bars with chevrons D)repeat the Japanese road patterns30.What does the author say about straight,horizontal bars painted across roads?A)They are falling out of use in the United StatesB)They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.C)They are applicable only on broad roads.D)They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circles.Passage ThreeQuestions 31to 35are based on the following passage:Amtrak (美国铁路客运公司)was experiencing a downswing in rider ship(客运量)along the lines comprising its rail system.Of major concern to Amtrak and its advertising agency DDB Needham,were the long-distance western routes where ridership had been declining significantly.]At one time,trains were the only practical way to cross the vast areas of the west.Trains were fast,very luxurious,and quite convenient compared to other forms of transportation existing at the time.However,times change and the automobile became America’s standard of convenience.Also,air travel had easily established itself as the fastest method of traveling great distances.Therefore,the task for DDB Needham was to encourage consumers to consider other aspects of train travel in order to change their attitudes and increase the likelihood that trains would be considered for travel in the west.Two portions of the total market were targeted:1)anxious fliers-thoseconcerned with safety,relaxation,and cleanliness and 2)travel-lovers-those viewing themselves as relaxed,casual,and interested in the travel experience as part of their vacation.The agency then developed a campaign that focused on travel experiences such as freedom,escape,relaxation,and enjoyment of the great western outdoors.It stressed experiences gained by using the trains and portrayed western train trips as wonderful adventures.Advertisements showed pictures of the beautiful scenery that could be enjoyed along some of the more famous western routes and emphasized the romantic names of some of these trains (Empire Builder,etc.).These ads were strategically placed among family-oriented TV shows and programs involving nature and America in order to most effectively reach target audiences.Results were impressive.The Empire Builder,which was focused on in one ad,enjoyed a 15percent increase in profits on its Chicago to Seattle route.31.What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A)To show the inability of trains to compete with planes with respect to speed and convenience.B)To stress the influence of the automobile on America’s standard of convenience.C)To emphasize the function of travel agencies in market promotion.D)To illustrate the important role of persuasive communication in changing consumer attitudes.32.It can be inferred from the passage that the drop in Amtrak ridership was due to the fact that ________.A)trains were not suitable for short distance passenger transportationB)trains were not the fastest and most convenient form of transportationC)trains were not as fast and convenient as they used to be D)trains could not compete with planes in terms of luxury and convenience33.To encourage consumers to travel by train,DDB Needham emphasized __________.C l a s s N a m eS I C n u m b e rE x a m T i m eE x a m R o o m装订线A)the freedom and convenience provided on trains B)the practical aspects of train travel C)the adventurous aspects of train trips D)the safety and cleanliness of train trips34.The train ads were placed among family-oriented TV programs involving nature and America because ____________.A)they could focus on meaningful travel experiencesB)they could increase the effectiveness of the TV programs C)their profits could be increased by some 15percentD)most travel-lovers and nervous fliers were believed to be among the audiences35.According to the passage,the Empire Builder enjoyed an increase in ridership and profits because ___________.A)the attractiveness of its name and route was effectively advertised B)it provided an exciting travel exper5ienceC)its passengers could enjoy the great western outdoorsD)it was widely advertised in newspapers and magazines in Chicago and SeattlePassage FourQuestions 36to 40are based on the following passage :Why does cram go bad faster than butter?Some researchers think they have the answer,and it comes down to the structure of the food,not its chemical composition-a finding that could help rid some processed foods of chemical preservatives.Cream and butter contain pretty much the same substances,so why cream should sour much faster has been a mystery.Both are emulsions-tiny globules (小球体)of one liquid evenly distributed throughout another.The difference lies in what’s in the globules and what’s in the surrounding liquid,says Brocklehurst,who led the investigation.In cream,fatty globules drift about in a sea of water.In butter,globules of a watery solution are locked away in a sea of fat.The bacteria which make the food go bad prefer to live in the watery regions of the mixture.“This means that in cream,the bacteria are free to grow throughout the mixture,”he says.When the situation is reversed,the bacteria are locked away in compartments (隔仓室)buried deep in the sea of fat.Trapped in this way,individual colonies cannot spread and rapidly run out of nutrients (养料).They also slowly poison themselves with their waste products.“In butter,you get a self-limiting system which stops the bacteria growing,”says Brocklehurst.The researchers are already working with food companies keen to see if their products can be made resistant to bacterial attack through alterations to the food’s structure.Brocklehurst believes it will be possible to make the emulsions used in salad cream,for instance,more like that in butter.The key will be to do this while keeping the salad cream liquid and not turning it into a solid lump.36.The significance of Brocklehurst’s research is that ____________.A)it suggested a way to keep some foods fresh without preservativesB)it discovered tiny globules in both cream and butterC)it revealed the secret of how bacteria multiply in cream and butterD)it found that cream and butter share the same chemical composition37.According to the researchers,cream sours fast than butter because bacteria _________.A)are more evenly distributed in creamB)multiply more easily in cream than in butter C)live on less fat in cream than in butter D)produce less waste in cream than in butter38.According to Brocklehurst,we can keep cream fresh by ___________.A)removing its fat B)killing the bacteriaC)reducing its water content D)altering its structure39.The word “colonies”(Line 2,Para.4)refers to __________.A)tiny globules B)watery regionsC)bacteria communities D)little compartmentsmercial application of the research finding will beC l a s s N a m eS I C n u m b e r E x a m T i m e E x a m R o o m 装订线possible if salad cream can

It cost about $ 2,400. At first, it was called New Amsterdam by the Dutch settlers. Later it was renamed New York by the English.The city grew rapidly. There were several reasons for this, but the most important one is its location. New York is situated on the best American harbor on the Atlantic Ocean. It also lies on the Hudson River, which allows water transportation into the middle of the United States.Today New York has a population of approximately eight million. The city has groups from many races. It is famous for its Chinatown. Italso has the largest Jewish population of any city outside Israel. After the blacks were released from slavery, a large number of them moved into cities like New York, Philadelphia, and Washington. More recently, people from Puerto Rico have done the same thing.New York is made up of five boroughs(行政区). The Bronx is the only one located on the mainland, with Brooklyn, Richmond, and Queens being on islands. It is a large manufacturing center because factories can be located near good water transportation. Two of the main businesses are the clothing industry and the printing industry. Most large publishing companies have their headquarters there.6.Manhattan was bought by Peter Minuit.A.TB.F答案:A7.The Indians named the city New York.A.TB.F答案:B8.New York grows so rapidly, because of its people.A.TB.F答案:B9.New York borough Bronx is not on an island.A.TB.F答案:A10.The printing industry and the clothing industry are two of the main businesses of New York.A.TB.F答案:AIn the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning isattached to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently.

Reading Comprehension(30 points)Directions: There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,C,and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter.Passage OneIn the United States, teaching is very important. If teachers do not teach well, students complain. If many students do not understand, people think that the teacher does not do a good job. The teacher has big responsibility to make sure students understand. In a sense, students are consumers and the teacher is offering services.Students have the right to evaluate their teachers, and they usually do so at the end of each course. That evaluation includes lots of aspects of teaching, such as explanation, preparation, using good examples, answering questions, and organization of classes.Students are supposed to read required textbooks and recommended books before classes. Without reading them, they will find it very difficult to understand the class. Basic courses on doing research and writing papers are taught at the beginning of the program. They teach things very concretely(具体地) and clearly. Students are expected to apply what they have learned to their studies.Classes are usually divided into lectures and seminars. There are some lecture classes, where the teacher just gives a lecture, and students ask questions at the end. Most graduate level classes are lectures and discussions. Participating in discussions is very important. Higher level classes involve very little lecturing. They emphasize discussion and presentation by the students.1.( )According to the passage, good teachers should ___________.A.try to please their students B.treat their students as consumersC.understand their students well D.make sure their students understand2.( )What are students expected to do before attending a class?A.Go over the lessons thoroughly. B.Understand the textbooks well.C.Do the reading assignments. D.Prepare on outline for discussion.3.( )When a program starts, students should first __________.A.learn how to do research and write papers.B.have some learning experienceC.learn about the course concretely and clearlyD.know how to participate in discussions.4.( )Higher level classes are taught mainly through ________.A.giving a lot of lectures to studentsB.involving students in discussionsC.asking students questions in classD.answering students’ questions in class5.( ) Students in higher level classes spend much time______.A.listening to the teacher’s lecturesB.answering the teacher’s questionsC.discussing and presenting their ideasD.reading different books and taking notesPassage TwoFares and schedules are always changing. Travel information can be seen everywhere on the Internet and there are so many vacation packages waiting for you to choose. All this can make travel planning confusing and time consuming. To make a choice, tourists and business people often turn to travel agents, who provide them with the best possible travel arrangements.In general, travel agents give advice on places you should go to, and make arrangements for transportation, hotel accommodations, car rental, sightseeing, and entertainment. They may also tell you about weather conditions, restaurants, and tourists attractions. For international travel, agents also make sure that you have the necessary papers such as passports and visas, and tell you how to go through the customs. They sometimes provide information on money exchange rates.Travel agents will search all kinds of sources for information on departure and arrival times, fares, hotel ratings and accommodations. They may visit hotels andrestaurants to know more. In this way they will be able to provide their customers with more valuable advice on travel.Travel agents also promote their services, using phones, direct mail and the Internet. They arrange advertising displays for some social groups, and suggest company trips to business managers. Travel agents no longer receive commission from domestic airline, and they face more and more competition from the Internet for low cost fares. In orders to find a small business in the Market, many travel agents now specialize in travel to certain regions or for certain groups of people, such as honeymooners, grandparents, etc.6. ( )This passage mainly tells us ______.A. what a travel agent's work is all aboutB. the interesting part of travel agents' workC. the difficult part of travel agents' workD. the commission travel agents can get from domestic airlines7. ( )Travel agents make arrangements for ______.A. transportation and car rentalB. hotel accommodationsC.sightseeing and entertainmentD. all of the above8.

( )Travel agents search all kinds of sources for information in order to ______.A. know more about their customersB. provide their customers with more valuable advice on travelC. make more moneyD. visit their customers10.( ) What papers are usually required in an international travel?A. Passports and visas.B. Identification cards.C. Only passports.D. College diploma.Passage ThreePearl Carlson was shaken awake at 3:30 a. m. by a forceful pull. King, the family dog, was trying to pull her out of bed. Then she smelled smoke and heard the sound of fire from her parent’s room. Pearl’s shouting awoke her mother, Fern , and father, Howard. Howard had recently been in a hospital for lung disease. Fern helped Howard to a first-floor window, told him to climb out, and then ran to her daughter.Still inside, King appeared at Pearl’s window, making squeaking sound. When she ran toward Pearl’s bedroom, Fern realized her husband hadn’t yet escaped. She made her way back through the smoke and fire. Following King’s sound, she found Howard lay on the floor. Fern helped him get outside. King came out only after both were safe.At daybreak, the Carlsons saw that King’s entire body was badly burned. His chain collar had gotten so hot that it burned his throat. He couldn’t bark normally now. Only after the seven-year-old dog refused food did they find pieces of wood in his mouth. They realized that King , who slept outside, had bitten through a wood door to warn his family.11.( ) Why did Pearl Carlson wake up at such an early hour?A.Her mother awoke her from sleep.B.She was awaken by the family dog.C.Her father pulled her out of bed.D.She smelled smoke and heard the sound of fire.12.( )Which of the following is TRUE about Howard before the fire?A.He had just had an operation.B.He had lost his job in a hospital.C.He had had problems with his lung.D.He had got very sick because of smoking.13.( )How did Fern know that her husband hadn’t yet come out of the house?A.King made some sounds at Pearl’s window.B.Pearl told her that Howard was still inside.C.Fern didn’t see her hus band outside.D.Fern heard her husband shout for help.14.( )We know from the passage that when the room caught fire, King____.A.was sleeping in Pearl’s roomB.ran out of the house immediatelyC.broke into the house to wake up PearlD.barked at the door to wake up the Carlsons15.( )From the passage we can guess that King is a/an____ dog.zyB. uglyC.cleverD.fatV.Translation(15 points)Directions: For this section, you are supposed to translate the following 5 sentences into Chinese.1.Mary is a keen reader of love stories.____________________________________________________________________ 2.The small town usually starts to come alive after dark.____________________________________________________________________ 3.I was amazed at her knowledge of French literature.____________________________________________________________________ 4.When they got married they had lots of problems, but things worked out in the end._____________________________________________________________________ 5.He is friendly and rarely does he lose his temper.______________________________________________________________________。

(每题2分,共30分)AThe following discussion(讨论) took place(发生) between a father and his nine-year-old son.“It's unfair(不公平),Dad. Mum wants me to make my bed, but I don't know how.”“It's time for you to learn. Where are your clean sheets(床单)?”“I don't know.”“What do you mean you don't know?

As a result, many people become too fat or too thin. To keep our bodies healthy, we have to do exercise every day.There are many kinds of exercises. Bending (弯腰) and stretching (伸展) helps us move easily. Before we play ball games or swim, it is better for us to do bending and stretching exercises first. This kind of exercise is something called warm-up exercise. Running is also a good exercise.If we cannot run fast, we can jog. Jogging means running slowly. Again, before we run or jog, we must do warm-up exercise. Also, we should not run or jog in busy streets. The air there is often dirty. Some people like weight lifting because it can make their bodies strong. Also, we need to do warm-up exercise before weight lifting.5. ________ is called warm-up exercise.A. Playing ball gamesB. SwimmingC. Bending and stretchingD. weight lifting6. Before we ________ , we must do warm-up exercise.A. runB. jogC. workD. run or jog7. Why do some people like weight lifting?A. Because it can make them thin.B. Because it can make their bodies strong.C. Because it can make them work well.D. Because they don't like other exercises.8. From the passage, we know ________ .A. jogging means running quicklyB. weight lifting can help us move easilyC. busy streets are not good places for runningD. three kinds of exercises arementionedCMany parents want their children to be famous one day. But do children have the same dream?A new play called, Hi, Ke’ai by Beijing Children’s Art Theatre tells the story of a boy called Ke’ai. His parents would like him to become a painter(画家) or musician or scientist one day. They teach him to draw and to play the piano, but Ke’ai doesn’t enjoy these activities.Then one day Ke’ai’s parents see Liu Xiang win a gold medal(金牌) at the Athens Olympic Games, and they want him to be a sportsman.“Why do they want me to be somebody else?” Ke’ai asks and says, “I only want to be myself.”The play shows us that it is good for parents to learn to understand their children. It helps parents to think about what kids want to do.Young audiences(观众) enjoy the story, and also the music in the play. There are two songs in the play. One of them, “Ke’ai’s Song” is very easy to learn, so the audiences can sing the song on their way home after the play.9. There is a new _____ named Hi, Ke’ai.A. filmB. playC. dreamD. piano10. His _______ would like Ke’ai to do some activities that he doesn’t like.A. parentsB. teachersC. friendsD. grandparents11. Ke’ai’s father and mother want him to be a sportsman _______.A. when he is good at sportsB. after he won a a gold medalC. when he can sing “Ke’ai’s Song”D. after Liu Xiang won a gold medal12. Hi, Ke’ai can help ______ to understand and thank about the kids.A. childrenB. teachersC. parentsD. audiencesDYears ago, if a person has some problems in his life, he might go home and write in his diary. Now he might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog.Differences between a blog and a diaryUsually, a person thinks of his diary as a book full of secrets. He does not want to share. But in the blog, anyone can read what he writes.I have a little sister, and sometimes I go onto the Internet to read her blog. She writes about swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry exam. When I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but only in my diary. Then, after I finished writing, I would put my diary in a secret place because I was worried that my sister might read it! Problems with bloggingThe biggest problem with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend and wrote something bad about her in my diary, she would never know. However, if my sister wrote something bad about a friend, that friend might read her blog and get angry. Because we do not always think about things carefully before we write about our days, it is easy to hurt others’ feeling in a blog. So we have to be very careful about what we write. Keeping in touch with friendsBlogging has both good and bad points, of course. People choose to blog because they know that their friends will read what they write.If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary “Nobody cares about me,” no one would know about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would quickly reply and tell her how much they like her. Blogs help people keep in touch with(保持联系) their friends and know what the people around them are doing.Blogs are a very good way to write about daily life, if people are careful about what they write. However, I still like writing better in my diary!13. What's the difference between blogs and diaries according to the passage?A. Blogs can be read by others while diaries only by writers themselves.B. Blogs are used by young people while diaries are kept by old people.C.
