Gradually, I became more confident and was getting along well with my partners. Surely cooperation made a difference and helped our team make many achievements.My experience has taught me that only if we attach great importance to cooperation can we go beyond ourselves.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)ANY move concerning the college entrance exams makes headlines in China, let alone major changes in test subjects. Since September, a heated discussion __25__ (sweep) the country aftersome provinces and municipalities announced reform plans for the vital –often life-altering –exams.First, English listening tests __26__ (drop) from college entrance exams in Shandong from next year in order to ―reduce students’pressure‖, Xinhua reported. And Jiangsu is considering __27__ (remove) English from college entrance exams and classifying English levels with letter grades. Universities will refer to the English levels of students from Jiangsu during the admission process.Beijing is another pioneer.

Some people applauded as it may possible relieve students’ burdens and changing the exam-oriented education system.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C, and D.

The other __58__ voice would appear to come from the left or right, in front or behind to agree with the actual location in relation to the listener.If the function is one day incorporated(集成) into a commercial telephone receiver, it could make a three-way audio-conference more natural and __59__ and easier to follow.The voice of speaker in Hokkaido(北海道), northern Japan, for example, would appear tocome from the __60__ for a person in Tokyo, and that of someone in southwestern Kyushu(九州) would appear to come from somewhere to the south.When using the videophone, the user would get the impression that the sound was __61__ coming from the mouth of the person on the screen.The mobile carrier is also researching the ability to __62__ speech simply from the movement of facial muscles without the voicing of any sounds.

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 read.(A)San Francisco has its cable cars. Seattle has its Space Needle. And, Longview has its squirrel bridge. The bridge, which has attracted international attention, is now a local landmark.The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder, Amos Peters, to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of the library grounds. Before the bridge was built, squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building. Many times, Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.One day Peters found a dead squirrel with a nut still in its mouth, and that day's coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of the City Council (市政会).The Council approved, and Councilwoman Bess LaRiviere named the bridge "Nutty Narrows."After architects designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started Construction, They built the 60-foot bridge from aluminum and lengths of fire hose (消防水带). It cost 1,000.It didn't take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes. The story was picked up by the media, and Nutty Narrowsbecame know in newspapers all over the world.In 1983, after 20 years of use, Peters took down the worn-out bridge. Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced. The faded sign was repainted and in July 1983, hundreds of animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of the new bridge.Peters died in 1984, and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.66. The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in order to ________.A. offer squirrels a place to eat nutsB. set up a local landmarkC. help improve trafficD. protect squirrels67.What does the underlined phrase ―teaching them the ropes‖ probably means in the text?A.

He is remembered for his love of animals.B. He donated $1,000 to build the bridge.C. He was a member of the City Council.D. He was awarded a medal for building it.DDCA(B)Filling in company application forms can become a boring and repetitive task. Yet any carelessness on an applicant’s part can draw a negative reaction from readers. Each company or organization usually uses its own specially designed form that, although it generally asks for the same basic information, may vary in detail. Therefore the suggestions below apply mainly to the approach you should take rather than suggest what you should write.*When visiting future employers, always carry your personal data record with you so that you can readily search for details such as dates, telephone numbers, and other useful information.*Treat every application form as though it is the first one you are completing—write carefully and neatly.*Use words that describe the responsibility and different aspects of each job you have held rather than list only the duties you performed.*Particularly describe social activities that show your involvement in the community, or activities in which you held a teaching or coaching role.*Pay particular attention of there is a section on the form that asks you to comment on how your education and past experience have especially prepared you for the position.Think this through very carefully before you write so that what you say shows a natural progression from past experience to the job you are applying for. If you can , and if they fit naturally , add a few words to demonstrate (证明)how the position fits your overall career plan.70.The first sentence of the passage means that __________.A.you may have to fill in a long application formB.the filling up of an application form takes much timeC.one may have to fill in many application forms before one gets a jobD.application forms should be filled carefully, with no misleading71. Although all application forms demand the same basic information, .A.different companies may have different requirementsB.different companies may take the same attitude towards themC.application may be required to answer all the questions in detailD.application may have to send in the forms by person72.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Your personal data record is more important than the interview itself.B.You should put all your personal data record in the application form.C.Your personal data record will be of much help to your interview.D.You should write your personal data as clearly and neatly as possible.73. Which of the following would be the best TITLE of the passage?A.Importance of Application Forms B.How to Fill in an Application FormC.Job and Its Application Form D.Nature of Application FormsCACB(C)Almost a decade after the hit Finding Nemo made clownfish seem totally warm and lovable, environmentalists are now looking for a real-life sequel: Saving Nemo.In the United States, a request has been made to extend the protections of the Endangered Species Act to marine species including the clownfish.But before you start shedding tears for Nemo and his buddies, keep in mind that this request is not based on any evidence of a decline in the clownfish population. Instead, what has sparked concern is the worsening health of coral reefs, which more than one million aquatic species including the clownfish depend on to thrive, even survive.In ways it makes more sense to move to protect a species when its habitat declines rather than its actual population. The most important mission of the Endangered Species Act is the protection of species’ habitats; without their habitats, there’s almost no hope of saving endangered animals, except perhaps in a zoo.Earlier this year, alarming news came about the world’s largest coral reef system, Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (GBR, 大堡礁). A study has shown the Reef is in sharp decline, with half of its coral cover gone in the past 27 years.Katharina Fabricius, an Australian coral reef ecologist co-authoring the study, has been diving and working on the GBR since 1988—and has watched the decline. ―There are still a lot of fish ... but not the same color and diversity as in the past,‖ she said.The study team used information from more than 2,000 surveys to determine the rate of decline between 1985 and 2012. That overall 50-percent decline, they estimate, is a yearly loss of about 3.4 percent of the Reef. If the trend continued, the coral cover could halve again by 2022.Several main factors are responsible for the decline, the study found. Intense tropical cyclones (热带气旋), believed to be fueled by global warming, have caused massive damage to reefs in the central and southern parts of the Reef. Meanwhile, population explosions of the coral-consuming crown-of-thorns starfish (长棘海星) have affected coral populations along the length of the Reef.Two severe coral bleaching (变白) events, caused by ocean warming, have also had major damaging impacts in northern and central parts of the GBR.74. A request has been made in the United States to save the clownfish because ________.A. it is a totally warm and lovable speciesB. the health of its habitat is worseningC. its population has dropped sharplyD. few clownfish can be found in zoos75. What does the underlined word ―thrive‖ in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. To feed oneself.B. To keep oneself safe.C. To grow and develop well.D. To attract attention.76. According to the article, what is the AUTHOR'S attitude toward the request in the U.S.?A. He/she supports it.B. He/she finds it ridiculous.C. He/she thinks it is reasonable but needs revising.D. There's no WAY to tell.77. According to the article, all of the following factors contribute to the decline of Great Barrier Reef's coral cover except ________.A. the growing popularity of scuba (水肺)diving around the ReefB. stronger tropical cyclones fueled by global warmingC. the rapidly growing population of type of coral-eating starfishD. coral bleaching caused by rising temperature of the ocean waterBCAASection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.When your country relies heavily on tourism and you lose more than a third of your visitors due to political revolution, you've got to do something pretty dramatic to get them back. And if you are Egypt, you reopen a pyramid.The Egyptian government recently announced that one of its great pyramids 一the Pyramid of Chefren 一and as many as six other ancient tombs at the Giza Necropolis (吉萨金字塔群) will be reopened after a long restoration project. The move was made in an attempt to revive (重振) a tourism industry that was badly affected by last year's unrest.Egypt became a no-go area following the unrest in 2011. Scenes of violent protests, mainly in the Capital Cairo, were broadcast ACROSS the world and understandably took the country off the holiday trail.Despite that questions are still being asked about the security of potential tourists visiting the region, Egypt's antiquities minister Muhammad Ibrahim insisted that it was a safe country. He said the region was far more stable one year on, adding that other archaeological (考古的) sites were due to be opened across Egypt in coming months.The Pyramid of Chefren, also known as the Pyramid of Chafren, is the second largest pyramid at the Giza site. It was built as the tomb for the Pharaoh Chafren from ancient Egypt's fourth dynasty.

Just a short year ago, he had never even swum, let alone raced. His country had been asked to Sydney as a polite gesture. But this man gave his all; he knew that he had no chance, but he competed because of the spirit of the game.
The event was swimming and started with only three men on the blocks. For one reason or another, two of them false started so they were disqualified(取消资格). That left only one to compete. It would have been difficult enough, not having anyone to race against, even though the time on the clock is what's important.
But in those few difficult strokes(划动), the crowd had changed.
No longer were they laughing, but beginning to cheer. Some even began to stand and shouted things like, "Come on, you can do it!" and "Go for it!" He did.

It offers them a new way of developmentDAs thousands of communities in the USA—especially in the South —became booming gateways for immigra nt families from Cen tral and South America duri ng the 1990s and the early years of the new century, public schools struggled with the unfamiliar taskof servi ng the large nu mbers of En glish lear ners arrivi ng in their classrooms.Education programs needed to be built from scratch . “Wehad no teaching resources suitable for En glish lear ners here before. We had to develop them all ourselves, ”a Texas principal said . Throughout the country, districts had to train their own teachers to teach En glish to non-n ative speakers or recruit (招聘)teachers from elsewhere. School staff members had to figure out how to com muni cate with pare nts who spoke no En glish.But eve n as immigrati on has slowed or stopped in many places, and in struct ionalprograms for English-learners have matured, serving immigrant families and their children remains a work in progress in many public schools, especially those in communities that are skeptical, or sometimes unwelcoming, to the newcomers. One of the biggest challenges educators face, is communicating effectively with parents who don' t speak English —an issue that, in part, has contributed to recent complaintsof discrimination by Latino students in some cities.“ The parents ' role is very important for the success of these students, butit's also one of the most diffic ult things we ' ve had to tackle (处理), ” said Jim D.Rollins, the president of the Springdale school district, where the 19,000-student school system has gone from having no English-learners 15 years ago to more than 7,500 now. “ You have to make it a priority and work on it, work on it, and work on it. ”Aside from the practical challenges, such as finding bilingual (会说两种语言的)staff members, guiding districts through such dramatic changes requires school leaders to bridge difficult political and cultural divides. For school leaders in the South, especially in the last few years, this difficult job has been made harder still by the negative attitudes of some locals towards immigrants.13.According to the passage, what is the problem that public schools are facing?A.Handling more cases from the immigrant Mexican communities.B.Offering services to immigrant families in the southern states.C.Offering enough communicative lessons to immigrant parents.D.Providing education for non-native English learners.14.The under lined part “built from scratch ” (in Paragraph 2 )probably meansa ”A.completely newB.painful to makeC.based on past experienceD.constructed gradually15.What do we know about the immigrant parents?A.Many of them cannot speak English.B.Most of them think education is not important.C.

A1970 was “World Conservation Year”. The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world was in danger. They hoped that the governments would act quickly in order to conserve(保护)nature. Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland, but now only 860 remain. The others have been destroyed by modern man and his technology. We are changing the earth, the air and the water, and everything that grows and lives. We can’t live without these t hings. If we continue like this, we shallWhat will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask “What must we do now?” The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young of today. A lot of them know that conservation is necessary. Many are hoping to save our world. They plant trees, build bridges across rivers in forests and so on. In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the banks of eleven kilometres of their river. Young people may hear about c onservation through a record called “No, One’s Going to Change our World.” It was made by1.We shall destroy ourselves if we don't _______.2.“No, One’s Going to Change our World.” was _______.A.an importa3.What is the most important thing for us to do to save our world?A.We should clean the banB.D. It is the young people who are helping to save our world .BThere are some very good things about open education. This way of teaching allows the students to grow as people, and to develop their own interests in many subjects. Open education allows students to be responsible for their own education, as they are responsible for what they do in life. Some students do badly in a traditional classroom. The open classroom may allow them to enjoy learning. Some students will be happier in an open education school. They will not have to worry about grades or rules. For students who worry about these things a lot, it is a good idea to be in an open classroom.But many students will not do well in an open classroom. For some students, there are too few rules. These students will do little in school. They will not make good use of open education. Because open education is so different from traditional education, these students may have a problem getting used to making so many choices. For many students it is important to have some rules in the classroom. They worry about the rules even when there are no rules. Even a few rules will help this kind of students. The last point about open education is that some traditional teachers do not like it. Many teachers do not believe in open education. Teachers who want to have an open classroom may have many problems at their schools.You now know what open education is. Some of its good points and bad points have been explained. You may have your own opinion about open education. The writer thinks that open education is a good idea, but only in theory. In actual fact, it may not work very well in a real class or school. The writer believes that most students, but of course not all students, want some structure in their classes. They want and need to have rules. In some cases, they must be made to study some subjects. Many students are pleased to find subjects they have to study interesting. They would not study those subjects if they did not have to.5.Open education may be a good idea for the students who__________.A.enjoy learning B.worry about gradesC.do well in a traditional classroom D.are responsible for what they do in life.6.Some students will do little in an open classroom because__________.A.there are too few rulesB.they hate activitiesC.open education is similar to the traditionaleducation D.they worry about the rules7.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage? ________A.Some traditional teachers do not like it. B.Manyteachers do not believe in open education. C.Teachersmay have problems in open classrooms.D.The teacher’s feelings and attitudes are important to the students.8.Which of the following best summarizes the passage? __________A.Open education is a really complex idea.B.Open education is better than traditional education.C.Teachers dislike open education.D.The writer thinks that open education is a good idea in practice.2CReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register(注册)the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.9. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are.B. To introduce BookCrossing.C. To stress the importance of reading.D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.10. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The book.B. An adventure.C. A public place.D. The identification number.11. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss it.B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.C. Pass it on to another reader.D. Mail it back to its owner.12. What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: A Virtual TourB. Electronic Books: A new TrendC. A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD. A Website Links People through BooksDHi, everybody !Welcome to our newly-opened Richards Cinema Bookstore!Now let me introduce to you some of the new film books in our store.Are you Chinese film fans?

When you read, you can not only learn some new words, but also learn how to use them. When you read a passage, it gives you a good example for writing. Here are some good reading tips.Firstly, try to read at the right level (水平). Read something that you can understand. If it is too hard for you, it is not interesting.Secondly, try to understand the new words. If there are four or five new words on a page, don't use a dictionary. Instead, try to guess their meanings as you read. Mark (作标记) them with a pencil. Then look them up in a dictionary when you finish reading, and write them in your own vocabulary book. Try to remember them.Thirdly, try to read for a short time once a day. Fifteen minutes or half an hour every day is better than two hours every Sunday. For example, you can read before you go to bed, or after you get up or at lunchtime.Lastly, read something that interests you. Choose a newspaper, a book or a magazine about a subject that you like. It will be easy enough for you to understand.( )46. The underlined word "tips" in the passage means " _____ " in Chinese.A. 末端B. 小费C. 处所D. 建议( )47. How many reading tips does the writer give us?A. Six.B. Five.C. Four.D. Three.( )48. If you meet a few new words on a page while reading, you can _____ .A. stop readingB. guess the meanings at firstC. write them down at onceD. look them up right away( )49. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Reading a lot can help you write better.B. It is useful for you to read for long once a week.C. When you read, you can only learn some new words.D. Try to read something hard to make your English better.( )50. Which is the BEST title for the passage?A. How to look up a new wordB. How to make reading betterC. How to remember new wordsD. How to choose something to readBThere are many stories about the start of Nian .It’s said that Nian was a fierce monster(凶猛野兽).Usually it stayed deep in the mountains. But in the winter ,it couldn’t find enough food. So itentered villages to eat whatever it could catch .Villagers became frightened and moved ter the people found that Nian was afraid of three things –The red color ,the bright fire and the loud noise .After learning this ,they thought of how to stop Nian from entering their villages .Thus ,a tradition was established(形成).People have couplets(对联),lanterns and firewords for theSpring Festival.Now most people in the countryside still keep these traditional celebrations. However, the people in cities have used new ways to celebrate the Spring Festival . For example ,they don’t send out so many greeting cards as before .Instead they usually send short text messages to greet friends on mobiles .And for safety ,firework were not allowed in some large cities a few years ago ,making the cities much quieter than before .It seems that all Chinese traditions are facing new challenges .Maybe when the children of the generation(代,辈)grow up ,they can only learn about Chinese traditions from books.( )51. Long ago ,people thought Nian was ________.A.seriousB. friendlyC. interestingD. dangerous( )52. People set off fireworks because Nian was afraid of _________.A.soundB. colorC. peopleD. animals( )53. Now people ________ to greet their friends on the Spring Festival.A.write lettersB. play cardsC. like mobilesD. send telegraphs (电报)( )54. Setting off(爆炸) fireworks is not allowed in some large cities in order to ________.A.make the cities quietB. save moneyC. keep safeD. keep clean( )55. What does the sentence underlined (划线)in the passage mean ?A.Chinese people will not have the Spring Festival any longer .B.Perhaps Chinese people won’t have the Spring Festival in tradition ways .C.It’s clear that Chinese tradition will disappear .D.Chinese people dislike the Spring Festival .C"How are you?" is a nice question. It's a friendly way that people in the U.S.A greet each other. But "How are you?" is also a very unusual question. It's a question that often doesn't need an answer. The person who asks "How are you?" hopes to hear the answer "Fine", even if the person's friend isn't fine. The reason is that "How are you?" isn't really a question and "Fine "isn't really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying "Hello" or "Hi".Sometimes, people also don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone Asks "Do you agree?", the other person might think, "No, I disagree. I think you're Wrong..."But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say "I'm not sure." It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say "I've to go now."Often, the person who wants to hang up gives(挂断了) and excuse:"Someone's at the door." "Something is burning on the stove."The excuses might be real ,or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person.Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don't say exactly that they are thinking. It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it's part of the game of language(语言游戏).( )56. When a person in America asks "How are you?", he or she wants to hear" "A. How are you?B. HelloC. I don't know.D. Fine( )57. When a person disagree with someone, it is polite to say" "A. You are wrong. I disagree.B. I'm not sure.C. I'm sure I disagree.D. No, I disagree.( )58. A polite way to finish talk is to say" "A. You have to go now.B. I want to hang up.C. I have to go now.D. I don't want to talk any more.( )59. When a person says "I've to go now. Someone's at the door.", the person may be .A. giving an excuseB. hurting someone's feelingC. illD. asking you a question( )60. The rule of the game of language is probably .A. "Always say what you mean"B. "Don't disagree with people."C. "Never say exactly what you're thinking."D. "Be polite."2015年九年级10月份联考英语试题答题卡选择题(75分)非选择题部分(45分)VII.填写单词(8分)61.Reading _________ every morning is a good way to improve your English .62.He wondered _______you were good at drawing or not .63.You can’t always_________ on others .You should try to do it yourself .64.It’s very _______for me to go shopping because I live beside the supermarket.65.Is my answer ________ or wrong ? It’s wrong .66.She went to the post office to buy some _________ .67.My e-mail ________is percywang@.68.I often visit my friends and ________ during (在…..期间)the Spring festival . VIII.完成句子(8分)69.She studies English by asking the teacher for help .(对划线部分提问)_______ _______ she study English ?70.The food is very delicious . (改为感叹句)______ ______ food it is !71.They will climb the mountain if it doesn’t rain tomorrow .(改为同义句)They will climb the mountain _______ it ______ tomorrow .72. “Does the man work in this school ?” I’m not sure .(改为宾语从句)I’m not sure _______ the man ______ in this school .IX.综合填空(6分)Could You Please ...?When you visit a 73 country, it is important to know how to ask for help 74 . For example, “Where are the restrooms?” or “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are ?These are similar 75 for directions to a place. Both are 76 , but the first one sounds less polite. That is because it is a very 77 question. It is not enough to just ask a question correctly. We also need to learn how to be polite 78 we ask for help.X、任务型阅读(8分)Chinese people have been celebrating Mid-Autumn Festival and enjoying mooncakes for centuries. Mooncakes have the shape of a full moon on mid-autumn night. They carry people’s wishes to the families they love and miss.There are many traditional folk stories about this festival. However, most people think that the story of Chang’e is the most touching. Chang’e was Hou Yi’s beautiful wife. After Hou Yi shot down the nine suns, a goddess gave him a magic medicine to thank him. (1)Whoever drank this could live forever, and Hou Yi pla nned to drink it with Chang’e. However, a bad man, Feng Meng, tried to steal the medicine when Hou Yi was not home. Chang’e refused to give it to him and drank it all. She became very light and flew up to the moon. Hou Yi was so sad that he called out her name to the moon every night. One night, he found that the moon was so bright and round that he could see his wife there. He quickly laid out her favorite fruits and desserts in the garden. How he wished that Chang’e could come back!(2)After this, people started the tradition of admiring the moon and sharing mooncakes withtheir families.79.How do people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival?______________________________________________________________________.80.请将文中(1)处划线句子改为同义句。

Thus many are convinced their dreams are prophetic (预言的) because a few have come true; they fail to notice the many that have not. Consider also the belief that “the phone always rings when I‟m in the shower.” If it does ring while you are in the shower, the event will stand out and be remembered. If it doesn‟t ring, that nonevent probably won‟t even register (留下印象).People want to see order, pattern and meaning in the world. Consider, for example, the common belief that things like personal misfortunes, plane crashes, and deaths “happen in threes.” Such beliefs stem from the tendency of people to allow the third event to define the time period. If three plane crashes occur in a month, then the period of time that counts as their “happening together” is one month; if three crashes occur in a year, the period of time is stretched. Flexible end points reinforce such beliefs.We also tend to believe what we want to believe. A majority of people think they are more intelligent, more fair-minded and more skilled behind the wheel of an automobile than the average person. Part of the reason we view ourselves so favorably is that we use criteria that work to our advantage. As economist Thomas Schelling explains, “Everybody ranks himself high in qualities he values: careful drivers give weight to care, skilled drivers give weight to skill, and those who are polite giv e weight to courtesy,” This way everyone ranks high on his own scale.Perhaps the most important mental habit we can learn is to be cautious (谨慎的) in drawing conclusions. The “evidence” of everyday life is sometimes misleading.31. In the first paragraph the author states that ________.A) dreams cannot be said to be prophetic even though a few have come trueB) dreams are prophetic because some of them did come trueC) dreams may come true if clearly rememberedD) dreams and reality are closely related32. By “things like...” “happen in threes” (Para. 3, Line 2), the author indicates that people believe ________.A) personal misfortunes tend to happen every now and thenB) personal misfortunes, plane crashes, and deaths usually happen togetherC) misfortunes tend to occur according to certain patternsD) misfortunes will never occur more than three times to a person in his lifetime33. The word “courtesy” (Para. 4, line 6) probably means ________.A) good manners B) appropriate speechC) friendly relations D) satisfactory service34. What can be inferred from the passage? ________.A) Happenings that go unnoticed deserve more attention.B) In a series of misfortunes the third one is usually the most serious.C) People tend to make use of evidence that supports their own beliefs.D) Believers of misfortunes happening in threes are cautious in interpreting events.35. It can be concluded from the passage that ________.A) there is some truth even in the wildest dreamsB) one should take notice of other people‟s meritsC) there is no order or pattern in world eventsD) we should not base our conclusions on accidental evidencePassage TwoIt has been thought and said that Africans are born with musical talent. Because music is so important in the lives of many Africans and because so much music is performed in Africa, we are inclined to think that Africans are musicians. The impression is strengthened when we look at ourselves and find that we have become largely a society of musical spectators (旁观). Music is important to us, but most of us can be considered consumers rather than producers of music. We have records, television,concerts, and radio to fulfill many of our musical needs. In most situations where music is performed in our culture it is not difficult to distinguish the audience from the performers, but such is often not the case in Africa. Alban Ayipaga, a Kasena semiprofessional musician from northern Ghana, says that when his flute (长笛) and drum ensemble (歌舞团) is performing. “Anybody can take part”. This is true, but Kasena musicians recognize that not all people are equally capable of taking part in the music. Some can sing along with the drummers, but relatively few can drum and even fewer can play the flute along with the ensemble. It is fairly common in Africa for there to be an ensemble of expert musicians surrounded by others who join in by clapping, singing, or somehow adding to the totality of musical sound. Performances often take place in an open area (that is, not on a stage) and so the lines between the performing nucleus and the additional performers, active spectators, and passive spectators may be difficult to draw from our point of view.36. The difference between us and Africans, as far as music is concerned, is that ________.A) most of us are consumers while most of them are producers of musicB) we are musical performers and they are semiprofessional musiciansC) most of us are passive spectators while they are active spectatorsD) we are the audience and they are the additional performers37. The word “such” (Line 6) refers to the fact that ________.A) music is performed with the participation of the audienceB) music is performed without the participation of the audienceC) people tend to distinguish the audience from the performersD) people have records, television sets and radio to fulfill their musical needs38. The author of the passage implies that ________.A) all Africans are musical and therefore much music is performed in AfricaB) not all Africans are born with musical talent although music is important in their livesC) most Africans are capable of joining in the music by playing musical instrumentsD) most Africans perform as well as professional musicians39. The word “nucleus” (Line 13) probably refers to ________.A) musicians famous in AfricaB) musicians at the center of attentionC) musicians acting as the core in a performanceD) active participants in a musical performance40. The best title for this passage would be ________.A) The Importance of Music to African PeopleB) Differences Between African Music and Music of Other CountriesC) The Relationship Between Musicians and Their AudienceD) A Characteristic Feature of African Musical PerformancesPassage threeMost people would agree that, although our age exceeds all previous ages in knowledge, there has been no corresponding increase in wisdom. But Agreement ceases as soon as we attempt to define “wisdom” and consider means of promoting it.There are several factors that contribute to wisdom. Of these I should put first a sense of proportion: the capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach to each its due weight. This has become more difficult than it used to be owing to the extent and complexity of the special knowledge required of various kinds of technicians. Suppose, for example, that you are engaged in research in scientific medicine. The work is difficult and is likely to absorb the whole of your mind. You have no time to consider the effect which your discoveries or inventions may have outside the field of medicine. You succeed (let us say) as modern medicine has succeeded, in enormously lowering the infant death-rate, not only in Europe and America, but also in Asia and Africa. This has the entirely unintended result of making the food supply inadequate and lowing the standard of life in the parts of the world that have the greatest populations. To take an even more dramatic example, which is in everybody‟s mind at the present time; you study the makeup of t he atom from a disinterested (无利害关系的) desire for knowledge, and by chance place in the hands of a powerful mad man the means ofdestroying the human race.Therefore, with every increase of knowledge and skill, wisdom becomes more necessary, for every such increase augments (增强) our capacity for realizing our purposes, and therefore augments our capacity for evil, if our purpose are unwise.41. Disagreement arises when people try to decide ________.A) how much more wisdom we have now than beforeB) what wisdom is and how to develop itC) if there is a great increase of wisdom in our ageD) whether wisdom can be developed or not42. According to the author, “wisdom” is the ability to ________.A) carefully consider the bad effects of any kind of research workB) give each important problem some careful considerationC) acquire a great deal of complex and special knowledgeD) give suitable consideration to all the possible elements in a problem43. Lowering the infant death-rate may ________.A) prove to be helpful everywhere in the world B) give rise to an increase in population in EuropeC) cause food shortages in Asia and Africa D) raise the living standard of the people in Africa44. The author uses the examples in the passage to illustrate his point that ________.A) it‟s extremely difficult to consider all the important elements in problemB) success in medical research has its negative effectsC) scientists may unknowingly cause destruction to the human raceD) it‟s unwise to be totally absorbed in research in scientific medicine45. What is the main idea of the passage?A) It is unwise to place the results of scientific research in the hands of a powerful mad man.B) The more knowledge one has, the wiser one becomes.C) Any increase of knowledge could lead to disastrous results without the guidance of wisdom.D) Wisdom increases in proportion to one‟s age.Passage FourFor any given task in Britain there are more men than are needed. Strong unions keep them there in Fleet Street, home of some London‟s biggest dailies, it is understood that when two unions quarrel over three jobs, the argument is settled by giving each union two. That means 33 per cent over manning, 33 per cent less productivity than could be obtained.A reporter who has visited plants throughout Europe has an impression that the pace of work is much slower here. Nobody tries too hard. Tea breaks do matter and are frequent. It is hard to measure intensity of work, but Britons give a distinct impression of going at their tasks in a more leisurely way.But is all this so terrible? It certainly does not improve the gross national product or output per worker. Those observant visitors, however, have noticed something else about Britain. It is a pleasant place.Street crowds in Stockholm. Paris and New York move quickly and silently heads down, all in a hurry. London crowds tend to walk at an easy pace (except in the profitable, efficient City, the financial district).Every stranger is struck by the patient and orderly way in which Britons queue for a bus: if the saleswoman is slow and out of stock she will likely say, …oh dear, what a pity‟; the rubbi sh collectors stop to chat (聊天) and call the housewives “Luv.” Crime rises here as in every city but there still remains a gentle tone and temper that is unmatched in Berlin, Milan or Detroit.In short, what is wrong with Britain may also be what is right. Having reached a tolerable standard, Britons appear to be choosing leisure over goods.46. What happens when disputes over job opportunities arise among British unions?A) Thirty three per cent of the workers will be out of work.B) More people will be employed than necessary.C) More jobs will be created by the government.D) The unions will try to increase productivity.47. What does the reporter who has visited plants throughout Europe think about Britain? ________.A) Tea breaks do not affect the intensity of work in Britain.B) Britons do their work in an unhurried sort of way.C) The pace of work in Continental Europe is much slower than in Britain.D) Britons give the impression of working intensively.48. “The breaks matter” (Para. 2, Line 2) indicates that ________.A) they are an important aspect of the British way of lifeB) they are greatly enjoyed by British workersC) they can be used by the workers as an excuse to take time off from workD) they help the workers to be on good terms with each other 与。
