Researchers who studied television viewing habits in Australia calculated that people who watch for a(n) _____42_____ of six hours a day shorten their life expectancy(预期寿命) by almost five years. They based their calculations on data on the _____43 _____between television viewing and death from the Australian obesity and lifestyle study which involved 11,000 adults aged 25 and over. Applying these findings to the whole population over 25, who are estimated to have watched 9.8 billion hours of TV in 2008, they concluded that it _____44_____ for 286,000 years of life lost — equivalent to 22 minutes for each hour watched. By _____45_____, smoking one cigarette is estimated to shorten life expectancy by 11 minutes — equivalent to half an hour of TV watching.Writing in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, the authors from the University of Queensland, say the figures suggest “huge loss of life may be_____46_____ with too much TV viewing.” The UK and other industrialized countries are likely to be similarly affected “given the typically large amounts of time spent watching TV and the similarities in disease patterns.” The researchers add “If these figures are_____47_____ and shown to reflect a cause and effect relationship, TV viewing is a public health problem comparable in size to established behavioral risk factors.”Researchers from Taiwan University found even those who did as little as 92 minutes’exercise a week —equivalent to 15 minutes a day for six days a week —reduced their _____48_____ of death by 14 per cent.

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)When you are little, it’s not hard to believe you can change the world. I remember my enthusiasm when, at the age of 12, I addressed the delegates at the Rio Earth Summit. “I am only a child,” I told them. “Yet I know that if all the money spent on war was spent on ending poverty and finding environmental answers, what a wonderful place this would be. In school you teach us not to fight with others, to work things out, to respect others, to clean up our mess, not to hurt other creatures, to share, not to be greedy. Then why do you go out and do the thing you tell us not to do? You grown-ups say you love us, but I challenge you, please, to make your actions reflect your words.”I spoke for six minutes and received a standing ovation. Some of the delegates even cried. I thought that maybe I had reached some of them, that my speech might actually spur(激励) action. Now, a decade from Rio, after I’ve sat through many more conferences, I’m not sure what has been accomplished. My confidence in the people in power and in the power of an individual’s voice to reach them has been deeply shaken.When I was little, the world was simple. But as a young adult, I’m learning that as we have to make choices —education, career, lifestyle —life gets more and more complicated. We are beginning to feel pressure to produce and be successful. We are taught that economic growth is in progress, but aren’t taught how to pursue a happy, healthy or sustainable(可持续的) way of living. And we are learning that what we wanted for the future when we were 12 was ideal and innocent.Today I’m no longer a child, but I’m worried about what kind of environment my children will grow up in. I know change is possible, because I am changing, still figuring out what I think. I am still deciding how to live my life. The challenges are great, but if we accept individual responsibility and make sustainable choices, we will rise to the challenges, and we will become part of the positive tide of change.66. The purpose of what the writer said at the age of 12 was to _____.A. end poverty and make school beautifulB. find environmental answers and keep the words that they always told themselvesC. end poverty and solve the problems about environmentD. find a wonderful place and clean it up67. What does the underlined word “ovation” in the second paragraph refer to _____.A. a long period of laughingB. a warm welcomeC. an expression used for greetingD. a long period of clapping and applause68. It becomes clear that the writer is possibly _____ now.A. in his teensB. in his twentiesC. in his thirtiesD. in his forties69. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. the writer thinks what he thought at the age of 12 is mature.B. the writer’s children will certainly live in an ideal environment.C. the writer’s confidence in the people in power has deeply shaken their voice.D. the writer’s belief does not change when he grows up.(B)70. Zeo is a revolution in the science of sleep mainly because it _____.A. can record one’s sleep processB. is the first product to manage one’s sleepC. is free of medical risksD. provides access to sleep fitness websites71. What is the most remarkable feature of Zeo?A. Its direct contact with sleep scientists.B. Its individualized coaching program.C. Its effectiveness in curing sleep disorders.D. Its immediate analysis of sleep data.70. What customer service does Zeo provide?A. Cheap online tools.B. A 30-day action plan.C. Personalized bedside display.D. Free delivery of the product.71. The passage is primarily written to _____.A. encourage people to try the new productB. instruct people how to use a newtoolC. provide the latest health informationD. illustrate the importance of good sleep habit(C)Although websites such as Facebook and MySpace experienced rapid growth during the middle of the first decade of the 21st century, some users remain unaware of the fact that the information they post online can come back to haunt them. First, employers can monitor employees who maintain a blog, photo diary, or website. Employers can look for controversial(引起争议的) employee opinions, sensitive information disclosures, or wildly inappropriate conduct. For example, a North Carolina newspaper fired one of its features writers after she created a blog on which she wrote about the strange things of her job and coworkers without signing her real name.The second unintended use of information from social networking websites is employers who check on prospective employees. A June 11, 2006 New York Times article reported that many companies use search engines and social networking websites such as MySpace, Xanga, and Facebook to conduct background checks on college campuses. Although the use of MySpace or Google to check a student’s background is somewhat unsettling to many undergraduates, the Times noted that the use of Facebook is especially shocking to students who believe that Facebook is limited to current students and recent alum(校友).Corporate employers are not the only people interested in college students’ lives. The third unintended use of social networking websites is college administrators who monitor the Internet — especially Facebook — for student bad behavior. For example, a college in Boston’s Back Bay expelled (除名) its student Government Association President for joining a Facebook group highly critical of a campus police sergeant. In addition, fifteen students at a state university in North Carolina faced charges in court for underage drinking because of photos that appeared on Facebook. Although more users of websites such as Facebook are becoming aware of the potential dangers of online identities, many regular users still fail to take three basic security precautions(警惕). First, only make your information available to a specific list of individuals whom you approve. Second, regularly search for potentially harmful information about yourself that may have been posted by mistake or by a disgruntled(不满的) former associate. Third, never post obviously offensive material under your name or on your page, because, despite the best precautions, this material will likely make its way to the wider world. By taking these simple steps, members of the digital world can realize the many benefits of e-community without experiencing some of the damaging unintended consequences.74. The main purpose of the passage is to _____.A. explain the growth of the digital world from the view of privacyB. discuss the risks of the digital world and suggest ways to protect yourselfC. propose steps Facebook, MySpace, and Google can take to protect user privacyD. illustrate potential unintended uses of private information75. The writer implies that users should take all of the following actions to protect their online privacy EXCEPT _____.A. know to whom you make your online information availableB. actively hunt for damaging information posted about you or under your nameC. speak with employers to inform them of any misinformation published about youD. avoid uploading information that would be extremely damaging if it were discovered76. According to the passage, which of the following does the author imply?A. Information obtained unwillingly from the Internet is permitted in court.B. It is impossible to protect yourself from unintended uses of information online.C. Even if you restrict who can view your data, the government may still access it.D. Done properly, posting offensive information about oneself brings no risk.77. In the last paragraph the author mainly _____.A. offers detailed examples to support previous viewpointsB. further explores the ill-effects of the Internet on the protection of privacyC. summarizes the points of the above paragraphsD. provides suggestions to overcome the previously mentioned problemsSection CDirections Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.New technology links the world as never before. Our plant has shrunk. It’s now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone satellite link. And, of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills.Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern business people who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often help support domestic business efforts.Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company’s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent(流⾏的).Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.The employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. The employer at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm.(Note Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN SIX WORDS.)78. In this passage, “out of sight and out of mind”in paragraph 3 probably means ________________.79. What is the author’s attitude toward high-tech communications equipment?80. According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporations in employing people today?81. The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they can __________________.第II卷(共47分)I.

D．Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（12分）For centuries, the Inca city of Machu Picchu was lost in the jungle. Then, in 1911, the American explorer, Hiram Bingham, discovered the ruins(废墟) of it. It is one of the most extraordinary places in the world.Today it is also one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. Many people choose to follow the Inca Trail (印加古道), a centuries-old path of 43 kilometres that takes three or four days on foot. Others take the train and then a bus for the last part of the journey.Now a hotel company is going to build a cable car to the top of Machu Picchu. “The cable car is good news for Machu Picchu,” says a company spokesman. “There are going to be a lot more tourists and that means more jobs for the local people. Looking after the ruins is expensive. With the extra money, we can spend more on looking after them.”However, the plan is not popular in Peru (秘鲁). Ana Redondo, a tour guide, explains the problem.“There are already more than 300,000 tourists that go to Machu Picchu every year. The Inca Trail is crowded. Old tea bags and water bottles can be found here and there. How dirty the Inca Trail is now! The new cable car is going to bring 400 tourists every hour! The company is also going to build a large hotel and tourist centre with souvenir shops, fast food restaurants and so on. It is the end of Machu Picchu.”Ana is an activist who belongs to an organization named Save Machu Picchu. She says that the organization is going to stop the company’s plans. “Tomorrow we are meeting government officers. Next week two scientists from UNESCO will come here. We will discuss the plans. Next month we are organizing an international meeting. We are not going to stop until the cable car idea is dead.”88.

He told his employer (雇主) of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more relaxing life with his wife and children. He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They thought they could support themselves for the rest of their life.The employer was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He turned to bad workmanship and used poor building materials.It was an unlucky way to end his working life. When the carpenter finished his work and theemployer came to see the house, he handed the front door key to the carpenter. "This is your house," he said, "my gift to you."What a shock! What a shame!

We build our lives in a distracted (不专注的) way, willing to put up less than the best. At important points we do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built. If we had realized that, we would have done it differently.It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one day more, that day deserves to be lived with dignity (尊严).The sentence on the wall reads, "Life is a do-it-yourself project." Who could say it more clearly?

Finally, in 2004, tocelebrate my 60th birthday, I went to Tanzania to experience asafari（东非游猎）and climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the highestmountain in Africa. Seated next to me on the flight was Tanzania’s Minister of Water and Wildlife Development. We talked for thousands of miles, and he arranged me to visit a school.

If so, please remember, for often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Enjoy the process. Here is a story to tell you why.One day a little boy decided to dig a hole behind his house after watching a science program. As he was working, a couple of boys stopped by to watch. "what are you doing?" asked one of the visitors. "I want to dig a deep hole all the way through the earth!" the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that it was impossible to do it. Then they left.The little boy kept on digging and digging. Suddenly, a few small colorful stones caught his eyes. He collected them and put them into a glass box patiently. Humming a song, he went on digging. The box was full soon. Then he talked to himself quietly and proudly, "Maybe I can't finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what I have found in the process of digging!"The boy's goal was too difficult, but it did cause him to go on, in other words, to cause us to keep working.Not every goal will be achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you can't achieve your goal, maybe you can say, "Yes, but look what I've found along the way!

According to Xiao, some hot places in the area cost up to 100,000 yuan a month to rent."Some people with true creativity are moving out, jumping from new low price areas to the next," says Xiao.When it comes to pills (药丸), many people try to keep away from them. But in Tianzifang, the traditional use of pills is being changed. In fact, in one of the shops, pills are a best seller among young visitors."Our pills are not bitter. They're all sweet," says Wang Jin, 28, the owner of Sweet Pills. Wang says the city's creativity districts provide young people who want to do their own business with better opportunities (=chances) and great fun as well.What Wang is referring to are not real pills for illness, but candies with printed words on the package (包装) that are aimed at some young people - "Tuhao pills" and "Xueba pills".According to Wang, the idea of selling candies in the form of medicine started as a joke."The first idea was to print jokes on the candy bottles," says Wang. "But after some time, we found that they didn't work well." So Wang and her teammates quickly turned their attention to online catchphrases (标语), which are much more popular than jokes.To Wang's own surprise, the idea was a big seller. Just two days after her shop's official opening in Tianzifang, the pills were all sold out. Wearing a white coat, just like a doctor, Wang was happy looking at the empty shelves in the store. At least Wang is not worried about the 40,000 yuan rent every month. She is ready for a new shop in a new neighborhood.88.

So they p 82 shopping with those heavy baskets?Sylvan: (nods) I‟ve got a huge crowd of customers every day, b 83 none of them wants to use the cart.Fred: I don‟t understand. We invented the cart so that people don‟t need to carry a basket around the shop.Sylvan: (laughs) And so that they will buy more groceries!Fred: So why don‟t they like the shopping cart?Sylvan: Young men think that pushing a cart around makes them look w 84 and slow, and young women think it‟s unfashionable.Fred: Of course it isn‟t fashionable right now. It‟s only just been invented! But I‟m sure older people will appreciate it. Sylvan: Um…Fred: What?

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）Chuck Wall teaches management and human relations at Bakersfield College. He walked into the class one day and told his students that their homework was to perform one act of random (任意的) kindness. His students did not c 81 understand the homework and didn‟t know what to do, but the professor would not answer their questions. He encouraged his students to work it out by themselves.One week later, the students entered the classroom excitedly to share their s 82 . One student gave away blankets to the homeless. Another reported on helping an old man cleaning the house, and another student had been trying to f 83 a long, lost friend. Students were energized (给予活力) by the homework and wanted other people to be kind too. And luckily, the local businesses provided them with some money and materials. With the s 84 of them, the students made stickers to put on cars that invited people to do something kind for others. They sold the stickers and decided to donate the money to a center for the blind―not surprising as Professor Wall is blind.Since then, kindness activities have been very p 85 in schools around the world. Many schools organize a Random Acts of Kindness Week, around November 13th, to celebrate World Kindness Day. Some schools use each day of Random Acts of Kindness Week to perform different kind acts, such as making a new friend, helping someone, doing community service, or r 86 money for a charity. Students learn to consider other people and think about how small actions can make the world a b 87 place.松江区(C) 81. poor 82. raised 83. money 84. stop 85. chance 86. new 87.

However, instead of staying at home, Li Chunyuan, a Junior 1 student at No. 42 Middle School, went out with her classmates. They made posters by t 81 and called on people not to set off fireworks.The students did this in order to r 82 air pollution. Since January, many cities in China have seen a lot of foggy days. In Beijing, only five days in January were free of smog (雾霾).An official for the Ministry of Environmental Protection told Beijing News that PM2.5 pollution is the m 83 problem with air pollution.Poor air has done harm to people’s health. Children and the elderly are more at risk. A report from Beijing C hildren’s Hospital shows that half of the p 84 had respiratory(呼吸道的) problems from Jan. 5 to 11.To respond to the air problem, the Chinese government and many Chinese people have started to take a c t i o n.B e i j i n g a n n o u n c e d a p l a n t o u s e c l e a n f u e l i n g o v e r n m e n t vehicles and plant trees.

Three students from No. 4 High School in Beijing wrote a report to advise h 86 to fight the air pollution.“We hope more people will j 87 us to protect our environment. With all our efforts, the blue skies will certainly return soon,” said Shi Yucong, one of the three students.2.奉贤How can I win a Nobel Prize for writing? Here’s the secret from this year’s winner: make it short, keep it real, and work hard.Canadian author Alice Munro, 82, was a 81 the 2013 Nobel Prize in literature (文学). She is known for her short stories about personal relationships of ordinary people, usually women.Munro was born in a farmer family in Ontario. The family was very poor. Munro did a lot of physical work a 82 a young girl.But she decided to be a w 83 when she was 12. She turns her hard childhood into great writing ideas.The story Dear Life, for example, opens with a description of the neighborhood in which Munro grew up.B 84 , she talked about her poor relationship with her mother in many of her stories, such as Lives of Girls and Women and Friend of My Youth.Since she p 85 her first book in 1968, Munro has won many awards, with the Nobel Prize as her biggest honor. But Munro doesn’t see h 86 as a talented writer.“I’m the opposite of a writer with a quick gift. I don’t grasp it very readily (轻而易举地) at all, the ‘it’ being whatever I’m trying to do,” she said.Do you d 87 of becoming a writer while sadly admitting you are not that talented? Munro has a tip for you: use notebooks and write a lot.“I have lots of notebooks that contain this te rribly clumsy (蹩脚的) writing,” she said. But it helps her sort out her mind. “Stories would just be working in my head for so long that when I started to write I was deep into them.”Do you get angry when your friends sing loudly while you are trying to work or when your best friend does not wait for you after school?If you do, you need to take control of your feelings.

It can never make them better. “ Getting angry is not a natu ral way to act, ” the book says. “ It’s just a habit, like smoking. ”The book says you can control your feelings e 84 ... all you have to do is to tell yourself not to be angry.The book gives many tips to help you if you get angry frequently. Here are the top three.● Keep a r 85 . Every time you get angry, write down why you are angry. Look at it later and you will see you get angry so often.● Ask your friends to s 86 talking to you when you get angry. Leave you alone. This will teach you not to be angry.● Do something d 87 . When you get angry, walk away from the problem and go somewhere else. Try to laugh.4.金山区Butterfly fairyThere was once a little girl. She had no family, and no one loved her. One day, when she was walking through a field, she noticed a small butterfly c 81 in a thorn bush（荆刺丛）. The more the butterfly tried to free itself, the deeper the thorns cut into its body. The little girl c 82 let go the butterfly. Instead of going away, the butterfly changed into a beautiful fairy.“For your kindness,” the butterfly fairy said to the little girl, “I will give you any w 83 you would like to have.”The little girl thought for a moment and then replied, “I want to be h 84 .”The fairy said, “Very good.” Then she got close to the girl’s ear and said something to her in a low voice.As the little girl grew up, there was no one in the village s 85 happy as she. Everyone asked the secret of her happiness. She would smile and only answer, “The secret of my happiness is that I listened to a butterfly fairy when I was a little girl.”When she was very old, the neighbours all came to visit her. They were a 86 that her secret of happiness would die with her. “Tell us, please,” they begged, “tell us what the fairy said.”The old woman smiled and said, “She told me that everyone, old or young, poor or rich, beautiful or ugly, n 87 me. She said that always helping others would make my dream come true.”5.静安区Who is managing things in your town or city? Someone repairs a broken window in the library.

The mayor must do a good job. The office members must work hard, too. After all, in a few years, there will be another Election Day.2.普陀区Mary and her husband, Richard Goldman, loved books. Like many lovers of books, theys 81 walked past a bookstore without stopping to look inside. They often talked of opening their own store one day.In order to realize their w 82 , they started by talking to bookstore owners and researching book business. One figure caught Mary’s attention: She had read somewhere that about 20 percent of books sold were mysteries(推理小说), and many buyers of mysteries spent more than $300 a year on books. She and Richard themselves were mystery r 83 and had a big collection of such books.On Halloween 1992, they opened the Mystery Lovers Bookshop and Café near their home. With three childrenin college, it was i 84 for the couple to spend all the family’s money to start a shop. To cover the $100,000 cost, they used some of their savings, borrowed from relatives and from a bank.In order to a 85 customers, Mary always had new ways. The shop had a coffee bar and it offered presents to mystery lovers and served dinners for book clubs that met in the store. She also invited many writers to d 86 their stories with the buyers to let them understand the stories better. Now after paying taxes, business costs and the six part-time sales clerks, Richard and Mary together earn about $34,000.“The job we love may not go hand in hand with lots of money,” says Richard. “We do this to givean e 87 life to ourselves. This is not about making a lot of money. What matters is that we gain happiness from it.”3.徐汇区Most people know that intelligence quotient (IQ) is important, but EQ is probably more importantin daily life. When facing an exam, EQ helps us to manage our feelings. When getting along with friendsor parents, EQ helps us to c 81 well.EQ is shaped partly by genetics（基因）. You can see some babies are quiet, while others are not.B 82 , EQ is something you can learn for yourself. You can learn what different feelings might mean and how they relate to yourself and others. If we learn in the right way, our EQ can get better as we get older. Children with a high EQ usually have greater success with making friends. Having a high EQ needs a few different skills. Learning about these skills can help us to i 83 our EQ. But what are they? Let’s take a look!1. Know yourselfMost people feel many different feelings t 84 the day. Some feelings like surprise last just a few seconds. Others, like happiness and sadness, may stay around much l 85 . Being able to recognize these everyday feelings is the most basic of all EQ skills.2. Manage yourselfWe all get angry. We all have disappointments. But we need to control it. It is not always the right time or place to express our feelings. When you are angry with someone, take a deep breath and s 86 count to 10. This way, you can calm down.3. Encourage yourselfWhen you fail an exam, you may be disappointed. But there is something more effective you can do—learnto encourage yourself. It gives you the energy and c 87 to move on.

It is essential for you to know why you are speaking and 25 you wish to accomplish by your speech. The four most common purposes of speech are to inform, to convince, to move to action, and to entertain. Do you, like a teacher or an expert in a field, wish to illustrate your ideas in detail to people unfamiliar with your subject 26 they can understand your ideas clearly and thoroughly? Or, like a debater, wish to convince the judges or the audience? Or, like a fund collector for a naturalist foundation, wish to get money? Or, like a comedian or after-dinner speaker, wish to entertain? The language and tone you use 27 be proper for your purpose, for your audience, and for the occasion. A speech to the graduating class will have quite different language, tone and manner from information 28 (deliver) to a group of your friends.Furthermore, 29 talented the speaker is, a talk without enough preparation is usually 30 failure. To speak without preparing is to shoot without taking aim. Decide what your aim or objective is; then state it in a complete topic sentence. Make sure that your subject 31 (be) definite and not too broad. zhucanqi(B)DC Hilton was one of the first Americans to find out that there was money to be made in the middle of the night. 47 years ago he bought a small restaurant on US highway 69, in Oklahoma. His main customers were truck drivers and traveling salesmen who drank coffee and ate cheeseburgerswhen they stopped 32 (break) their journey.It was they 33 first tried to persuade Hilton to remain open all night. 34 (think) about it for a while, he suddenly made up his mind. He took the door key and threw it across the road. He hasn‟t closed the door ever since.Over the years his simple burger café has been expanded 35 a 24-hour roadside empire, with a 100-seat restaurant, a petrol station, a mini shopping market, a car park for mobile homes and all-night self-help laundry.Hilton was a pioneer in a 24-hour working trend, 36 has now caught on around the world. Today not only restaurants but also banks, supermarkets, mail-order firms, travel agencies and many other businesses are beginning to be open all night. But is this really a good thing?So far, a lot of research 37 (do) in America on the effect of 24-hour working, and there is growing concern about the long-term dangers of a society that doesn‟t sleep. Americans are said to be sleeping 20% less than 38 did 100 years ago, and 55% claim to suffer at least occasionally from over-tiredness. Several of the 39 (bad) man-made disasters happened in the last few hours before dawn, when even the most experienced night-worker has difficulty 40 (stay) awake.Section BDirections:Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only beThere is a tendency to think of each of the arts as a separate area of activity. Many artists, however, would prove that there has always been a warm relationship between the 41 areas of human activity. For example, in the late nineteenth century the connections between music and painting were 42 close. zhucanqi Artists were invited to design clothes and settings for operas and ballets, but sometimes it was the musicians who were inspired by the work of 43 painters. Of the musical compositions that were considered as responses to the visual arts, perhaps the most famous is Mussorgsky‟s Pictures at an Exhibition.Mussorgsky 44 the piece in 1874 after the death, at the age of 39, of the artist Victor Hartmann. Though their friendship had not been a particularly long-lasting one, Mussorgsky was shocked by Hartmann‟s45 death. The following year the critic, Vladimir Stasov, who decided to hold an exhibit ion of Hartmann‟s work, suggested that Mussorgsky try to46 his grief by writing something in 47 of Hartmann.The exhibition served as Mussorgsky‟s inspiration. The ten pieces that make up Pictures at an Exhibition are 48 as symbols rather than representations of the paintings in the exhibition. Between each is a promenade （舞曲中的行进）, as the composer walks from one painting to another. The music is sometimes witty and playful, sometimes almost alarming and frightening. Through a range of surprising 49 , Mussorgsky manages to 50 the spirit of the artist and his work.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.The term home schooling means educating children at home or in places other than a normal setting such as a public or private school.

Other parents follow an extreme form of homeschooling in which they do not give grades or tests and allow their children to study wherever they want. More parents, however, follow the middle 54 to provide a balance between freedom and discipline.Why do parents choose homeschooling? Some believe that children in public schools experience too much “peer pressure”, or social pressure from friends. They say it may have a 55 effect on the child‟s studies. Other parents are dissatisfied with the quality of education in the public school. About half the parents who teach at home are 56 motivated and use lessons by mail or Internet from church schools. Whatever the 57 may be, it is evident that more and more children are being taken out of normal schools every year. 58 , many questions have emerged, encouraging the debate over home schooling against public schooling.What then is the future of education? Although children often learn well at home, weak regulations in most states mean that officials rarely challenge or 59 parents who say they are home-schooling. As the 60 continues, so do the questions about what home schoolers are studying at home. How can parents ensure that their children are prepared academically for college? How are home schoolers 61 to make sure they are getting the same educational standards that school students must have? Recent studies in the United States have shown that homeschooled children tend to be slightly better in subjects like English and art, but they are obviously less 62 math and science. Finally, there are questions regarding the children‟s emotional development. Are they too 63 their fellow students? Are they 64 the opportunity to get the social benefits of being in a large classroom of students? As with any debatable issue, the answers to these questions are never 65 .51.

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)“It seems likely that a caged elephant would miss the wilderness it was born into.” a six-year study revealed.British and Canadian scientists studied 4,500 elephants in European zoos and compared them with elephants living in the wild. They found that wild elephants are healthier, live longer and reproduce more than those elephants in zoos.Wh en it comes to living in a zoo, “many species do well but elephants don‟t,” said Georgia Mason, one of the researchers of the study. Many animals live longer in zoos than they do in the wild. This isn‟t surprising when you consider that zoo animals are not threatened by predators (掠食者), always have plenty to eat, P.F. Productions and have professionals on hand to care for them.When it comes to elephants, however, the situation is different. The world‟s largest land animals live much longer in the wild than they do in zoos.Female African elephants born in zoos live on average for 17 years, while those in the wild make it to 56. “So far,” says Mason, “We‟ve got 300 African elephants in zoos in Europe, and not one‟s yet reached 50.”Asian elephants are the more endangered of the two elephant species. They live for about 19 years in captivity (圈养) compared to 42 years in the wild. A few wild Asian elephants have even made it into their 70s. In Kenya, 30 to 50 percent of wild elephants reach 50 years of age.Fatness and stress are likely causes for the giant land animals‟ early death in capti vity, Mason said.The researchers say that zoos do not offer enough space for animals that can travel as far as 48 kilometers a day. Too little exercise and too much food means captive elephants put on extra weight. The weight gain can lead to heart disease and other health problems.Being “caged” is bad for health, not only for elephants, but also for humans. Be careful not to become a “caged elephant”!66. Many animals live longer in zoos owing to the following reasons EXCEPT that ________.A. they are far away from the danger of being eaten.B. they can be in a better mood there.C. they needn‟t worry about their food at all.D. they are taken good care of.67. Which of the following may probably result in the early death of elephants in zoos?A. Stress and lack of delicious food.B. Loneliness and little space for activities.C. Lack of delicious food and enough exercise.D. Being stressed and over weight.68. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Zoos are not suitable for animals to live in.B. None of the animals live well in zoos due to lack of exercise.C. Compared with the elephants in zoos, wild elephants are healthier.D. Asian elephants can live longer than African elephants in zoos.69. What is the passage mainly about?A. The living conditions of animals in the world are worsening.B. Elephants can live a longer time in the wild than in zoos.C. All of us should take actions to protect wild elephants.D. The places where wild elephants live are being damaged seriously.(B)Friends Membership Card THE HAMILTON PLAYHOUSE00136789Valid until 23 May 2013Name: Miss E. M.

Psychologists view the subject either as a matter of failure or a joke. Now the biologists have moved into this field, and some of them have found that there are real differences between the brains of men and women. But being different, they point out hurriedly, is not the same as being better or worse.There is, however, a definite structural variation between the male and female brain. The difference is in a part of the brain that is used in the most complex intellectual processes—the link between the two halves of the brain.The two halves are linked by a trunkline (主干线) of between 200 and 300 million nerves, the corpus callosum. Scientists have found quite recently that the corpus callosum in women is always larger and probably richer in nerve fibres (纤维) than it is in men. This is the first time that a structural difference has been found between the brains of women and men and it must have some significance. The question is “What?”, and if this difference exists, are there others? Research shows that present-day women think differently and behave differently from men. Are some of these differences biological and inborn, a result of evolution? We tend to think that is the influence of society that produces these differences. But could we be wrong?Research showed that these two halves of the brain had different functions, and that the corpus callosum enabled them to work together. The better the connections, the more harmoniously the two halves work. Usually, women have the better connections.But it isn‟t all that easy to explain the actual differences between the ski lls of men and women on this basis. In schools throughout the world girls tend to be better than boys at “language subjects” and boys better at math. If these differences correspond (相符合) with the differences in the trunkline, there is an unchangeable distinction between the sexes.We shan‟t know for a while, partly because we don‟t know of the exact relationship between abilities in school subjects and the functioning of the two halves of the brain. And we cannot understand how the two halves interact through the corpus callosum. But one thing is certain:nothing in our world is still—even scientific thought.74. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Biologists are doing research where psychologists have given up.B. Brain differences point to advantage of one sex over the other.C. The structural difference in the brain between the sexes has long been known.D. The brain difference is the only difference between the sexes.75. According to the passage, it is commonly believed that brain differences are caused by ________factors.A. biologicalB. psychologicalC. physicalD. social76. The expression of “these differences” refers to those in ________.A. skills of men and womenB. school subjectsC. the brain structure of men and womenD. learning habits77. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To discuss the various factors that cause brain differences.B. To explain the link between sex and brain structure.C. To suggest new areas in brain research.D. To indicate the many differences between the sexes.Section CDirections:Read the following passage and then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.You are what you eat and fats are a main food for Asia‟s fast-food generation. Dr. Chwang, director of the Department of Food Nutrition, says children are consuming more meat and soft drinks. That is a thorough departure from the traditional diet of vegetables and rice an d little meat. “They like big pieces of fried meat with a soft drink. So although they may eat the same volume of food, their calorie intake (卡路里摄入量) has increased. Now about 40 to 45 percent of their calories come from fat,” says Chwang.Although on the w hole Asians tend towards thinness, Asians‟ hospitality（好客）is the first and foremost reason for the fatness of today‟s generation, according to Chwang. “Asian people love food,” she says. “Eating and drinking are important social and family functions.” In t he past, however, big meals were only hosted on special occasions as people were more careful with money. In today‟s climate of wealth and remarkable consumption, 10-course meals are no longer reserved for significant occasions.Needless to say, that child ren are being spoilt by their parents is another cause of children‟s overweight. More than anyone else, children are on the receiving end of their parents‟ improved circumstances. “In the past, people had four or more children —now, they have one or two, so they tend to spoil them,” says Chwang. “The easiest way is to give them …quality food‟. Parents think feeding them well is showing their love. They feel bad when their children look thin.”When describing the physical condition of most overweight Asian children, Chwang says: “There is a clear relationship between fatness and indoor play children spend too much time on. Children get fat because they don‟t move, and eventually, they don‟t want to move because they‟refat. Thanks to technology, a growing army of children prefer video games to old outdoor sports. “What do children do when watching TV or sitting in front of the computer playing video games? They eat chocolate and drink Coke,” P.F. Productions says Chwang.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)78. Despite the same volume of food, children take in more calories due to ________.79. Thanks to ________, big meals nowadays are no longer enjoyed on special occasions.80. Why do some parents feel bad when their children look thin?81. According to Dr. Chwang, what are the three factors causing Asian children‟s overweight today?第II卷（共47分）I.

When I was 76 , I remembered what I had promised and went on.As the time came, I felt quite confident. On the first day I came fourth in the 1500-metrerace, but I was far from pleased 77 what I wanted most was the most exciting momentof the sports meeting – the relay race(接力赛). I would run the last leg for my team.With a shot, the race began. All the students were cheering for their team. The competition was so close that I began to feel nervous. Before my turn came, my team was fallingbehind the others. 78 , I almost dropped the stick when I was trying to take it.But after that, there was nothing in my mind except to run as fast as possible. Just when I was near the finishing line, my legs gave out (筋疲力尽). Then my 79 came to mind again and encouraged me to go on. To my surprise, I was the first to cross the finishing line!At last, I had proved to myself and those who had often laughed at me that I am not weak at all! My classmates greeted me warmly. I had won the prize as well as their 80 .From the sports meeting, I learnt that sometimes things are not so difficult as they seem to be.

When Thomas one day discovered that other children had someone they called Mum and asked why he must call her grandma instead of Mum. She told him gently about his mother‘s death before he was three months old. There was not the same reaction(反应) when he asked why he had 75 to call Dad. Then his grandmother glared at (瞪着)Him and got angrier than he had 76 seen and the sharp reply was,‖ He was a bad man. He didn‘t want your mother, and he didn‘t want you when you were born. Thomas never asked about his father any more.Shortly after his fifth birthday and two days before Christmas Day, Thomas was woken up by his grandma‘s calling to him from her bedroom. Running into the old lady‘s room, he found her77 for breathlessness, and between gasps (喘气)，trying to tell him to fetch the next-door neighbour. As soon as the neighbour arrived, she sent Thomas to call another neighbour. Next Thomas was told he must stay downstairs, so he sat in the kitchen, trying to give all his _____78 to his toys. He was there to see the doctors arrive, and to see him leave a few minutes later. This eased(减轻) Thomas worry. A doctor would stay a long time with someone who was seriously ill. The fact that the doctor left so 79 after his arrival meant that. Grandma was going to be all right again. He expected to be told he could go upstairs and see her. But the first neighbour came down and explained that Grandma was 80 and the doctor had said that she couldn‘t be disturbed (打扰). Shortlyafterwards the second neighbour came down, helped Thomas put his toys in a box, and then took him to have lunch with her and her two children.75 A)none B)someone C)no one D) anyone76 A) never B) not C)hardly D) ever77 A) keeping B) fighting C) appearing D) starting78 A) note B)attention C) interest D) attraction79 A) quickly B) fast C) hurriedly D) soon80 A) lying in the bed B) laying in bed C) sleeping D) gone3.虹口区At one time there was an oyster(牡蛎).He thought that he was the most important animal in the world because he____75____himself.

I can tell you now that it is a 75 . The rain in Spain seems to fall mostly on me. I am spending a year in Galicia and, although it is certainly a beautiful part of the world, I think it rains more than in England.There are no plains here. It is a coastal area, and clouds and storms directly get pushed in from over the ocean with force. As I write, there is a heavy rain outside. I have three umbrellas. Two big ones and a little one which I keep on me 76 , just in case. Believe me what I tell you is all true.The problem is that very often, umbrellas offer no help at all. The wind is so strong that even the best umbrella in the world becomes useless. 77 , I often arrive at work with a dry head and shoulders (protected by my umbrella), but with wet feet and legs. The rain falls hard and fast, and there is no escaping it.When people from England think of Spain, they imagine beaches and sunshine. Those things are a world away from my experiences here in Galicia. But I‘m not 78 . It is because of all this rain that the countryside here is so green and beautiful. In the town a very nice white wine is made. And there are beautiful beaches here in Galicia, although there probably is 79 on them at the moment.And most important of all is the people. They are very friendly here. Most people I have spoken to are helpful.So I think that‘s worth having a bit of 80 for. Anyway, I love my life here in Galicia.75.

Suddenly, you look up to see your big brother coming towards you. He‘s giggling(痴笑)from ear to ear. His arms are stretched out, fingers shaking slightly. You try to get away, but there‘s no way to75 . Before you know it, he‘s tickling(抓痒逗笑)you, and you can‘t stop laughing.Most of us don‘t like to be tickled. We try everything to move our way out of a tickle. Yet no matter how much we dislike being tickled, we always end up laughing.Why do people laugh when they are tickled? That‘s76 scientist Christine Harris of San Diego, California, wanted to find out. First, Harris and her friends needed to practice. They spent some time tickling each other. Then they gathered a group of students who were ready to be tickled in the name of science.Next, Harris‘s77 observed how hard the students laughed at different TV shows. They wanted to know about that type of laughter which is different from laughter caused by tickling. Then the team tickled the student volunteers under the arms and on the toes(脚趾). As part of the research, Harris‘s team even used a tickle machine with parts that 78 shaking fingers!What were the results of this tickling research? Harris‘s team found that people do not laugh because tickling is funny. People simply cannot stop themselves from laughing when they are tickled. The scientists decided that ticklish laughter may be a special kind of action. This action happens 79 a person‘s control or effort.So, have all questions about tickling been answered? Has Harris tickled her last toe? It‘s unlikely. It seems that humans are not the only living things that giggle when they are tickled. Young chimpanzees also 80 to tickle one another during their play. They, too, seem to chuckle(吃吃地笑)when they are tickled.75. A) hold B)watch C)escape D)wait76. A) how B)what C)who D)why77.

One way o f finding out a word‘s meaning is by looking it up in a _76___. Another way is to use context(上下文). You can think of the context as the ―neighborhood‖ in which a word ―lives‖. A word is never _77___. It appears in a sentence with other words, and that sentence has other sentences that come before and after it. These words and sentences are the context of the unknown word.A word‘s context often contains clues (包含提示)to its meaning. To find clues, think about the meanings of the other words in the sentence. Look at the sentences that come before and after the sentence that contains the word. Do they give you any clues? Sometimes a writer gives _78___ that can help you understand the word‘s meaning. Sometimes you may find a word that has almost the same meaning, or a word that means the _79___,or even a definition（释义）of the unfamiliar word, in the same sentence or a nearby one. These are all context clues.Read the following sentence. Can you guess from the context what word might fit in the blank?We had our picnic in the shade（阴凉处）of a huge _80___.Did you guess the missing word from the context? If you did, you were able to tell from the other words in the sentence that the missing word must be a noun. You could also tell that the word means something that can give shade outdoors. It is something that people might have a picnic under. All these context clues helped you know the word.75. A) predicts B) means C) debates D) wants76.

There have been several days since then and some people are 76 that we may be the next city to catch up with Beijing, a city was slowly covered by a thick dirty brown haze.The terrible pollution has not escaped the notice of foreigners in China, either.

This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.Now the Vieira children are adultsand they sometimes travel to Spain to 75 their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a 76 because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you‘re more77 . People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.78 , speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person‘s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language 79 your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other‘s problems.The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear, in fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don‘t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their 80 .75. A. invite B.visit C.help plain76.
