Then look for those clothes on sale(销售).There are labels(标签)inside all new clothes. The labels tell you how to take care of your clothes. The label for a shirt may tell you to wash it in warm water. A sweater（秋衣、毛衣）label may tell you to wash by washing in cold water. The label on a coat may say “dry clean only.”(只能干洗) Washing may ruin(损坏) this coat. If you do as the directions(说明) say on the label，you can keep your clothes looking their best. Many clothes today must be dry cleaned. Dry cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes，check(核实) to see if they will need to be dry cleaned. You will save money if you buy clothes that can be washed.You can save money if you buy clothes that are well made. Well-made clothes last（持续）longer. They look good even after they have been washed many times. Clothes that cost more money are not always better made. They do not always fit (合身) better. Sometime less expensive clothes look and fit better than more expensive clothes.36).If you want to save money you can buy clothes that_____.A. don't fit youB. don't last longC.. need to be dry cleanedD. can be washed37).The first thing for you to do before you buy clothes is___.A. to look for well-made clothesB. to see how much money you can payC. to know how to wash themD. to read the labels inside them38).We learn from the reading that cheaper clothes______.A. are always worse madeB. must be dry cleanedC. can not be washedD. can sometimes fit you better39).The best title(标题) for the reading should be______.A. Buying Less Expensive ClothesB. Taking Enough Money When ShoppingC. Being a Clever Clothes ShopperD. Choosing the Labels inside new clothesBHappiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools（游泳池）or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why？Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely（孤独的）and those who have cars may want to walk on the country（乡村）roads at their free time. In fact，happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school，your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons，your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health;when you get success，your friends will say congratulations（祝贺）to you; when you do something wrong，people around you will help you to correct（改正）it. And when you do something good to others，you will feel happy，too. All these are your happiness. If you notice（注意到）a bit of them，you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor，you can also feel you are very happy，because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties，you can say loudly you are very happy，because you have more chances（机会）to challenge（挑战）yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes，life is like a revolving(旋转的) door. When it does，it also opens. If you take every chance you get，you can be a happy and lucky person.40).Those who have big houses may often feel_____.A. happyB. lonelyC. freeD. excited41).When you fall down in a PE class（体育课），both your teacher and your classmates will_____.A. laugh at youB. play jokes on youC. quarrel with youD. help you up42).What will your friends say to you when you make great progress？A. Oh，so do I.B. Congratulations.C. Good luck.D. It's just so-so.43).Which of the following is this passage about？A. Bad luck.B. Good luck.C. Happiness.D. Life.CDo you know how to play a game called “Musical Chairs”？It is easy to play and most people enjoy it. All you need are some chairs，some people and some way of making music. You may use a piano（钢琴）or any other musical instrument，if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder（录音机）. You can even use a radio（收音机）.Put the chairs in a row（排）. The chairs may be put in twos，back toback. A better way is to have the chairs in one row with each chair facing in the opposite（相反的）direction（方向）to the chair next to it. The game is easy. When the music starts，the players walk round the chairs. Everyone goes in the same direction. Of course，they should walk in time to the music. If the music is fast they should walk quickly. If the music is slow，they should walk slowly.The person playing music cannot see the people in the game. When the music stops，the players try to sit on the chairs. If a person cannot find a chair to sit on，he drops out（出局）. Then，before the music starts again，one chair must be taken away. When the music stops again，one more player will be out.At last，there will be two players and one chair. The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.44). If ten people are playing musical chairs，you must begin with _______.A. nine chairsB. ten chairsC. eleven chairsD. one chair45). Which of the following is Not suitable for playing musical chairs？_______.A. A pianoB. A radioC. A tape recorderD. A telephone46). The chairs should be put _______.A. with the desksB. before the winnerC. all over the roomD. in a line47). When the music starts, the players must _______.A. run about the roomB. get downC. walk around the chairsD. sit on the chairsDMr. King works in a shop and drives a car for the manager（经理）. He drives carefully and can keep calm（镇定）in time of danger. And he escaped from（避免）several accidents（事故）. The manager pays him more and the traffic（交通）policemen often speak highly of（高度评价）him.Mr. Baker，one of his friends，works in a factory outside the city.It‘s far from his house and he has to go to work by bus. As the traffic is crowded（拥挤的）in the morning，sometimes he’s late for the work. His manager warns（警告）the young man that he will be sent away （解雇）unless（除非）he gets to his office on time. He hopes to buy a car，but he hasn’t enough money. He decides（决定）to buy an old one. He went to the flea （跳蚤）market（市场）and at last he chose （挑选）a beautiful but cheap car. He said he wanted to have a trial （尝试性的）drive，the seller agreed. He called Mr. King and asked him to help him.Mr. King examined the car at first and then drove it away. It was five in the morning and there were few cars in the street. At first he drove slowly and it worked well. Then he drove fast. And when he reached a crossing（十字路口），the lights turned red. He tried to stop it，but he failed and nearly hit an old woman who was crossing（穿越）the street.A policeman told him to stop，but the car went on until it hit a big tree by the road.“Didn’t you hear me？”the policeman asked angrily.“Yes，I did，sir，”said Mr. King，“Since it doesn’t listen to me，can it obey（遵守）you？”48).

Perhaps the most common money of all was animal of some kind. In some places today, cows are still used as a kind of money. So you see, things highly valued by everybody may serve as money.The Chinese were the first people to use coins as money. Oh, sorry, you don’t know the word? Well, it is spelled C-O-I-N. Here are some coins of the past.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the 41 from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is 42 for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing as often 43 to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor 44and ill health.The amount of stress a person can stand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime 45 for managerial responsibilities; others lose heart at the first sign of unusual difficulties. When 46 to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between “flight or fight” and in more primitive (远古的) days the choices made the difference between life or death. The 47 we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it 48 the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes 49 . Since we can’t remove stress from our lives(it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it.III. Reading comprehension:Section 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.We all remember seeing hitchhikers, standing by the side of the road, thumb sticking out, waiting for a lift. But it is getting 50 nowadays. What killed hitchhiking? 51 is often mentioned as a reason. Movies about murderous hitchhikers and real-life crime have put many drivers off 52 hitchhikers. That no single women picked me up on my journey toManchester no doubt 53 the safety fear: a large, strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.But the reason may be more 54 : hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport services are poor. Plenty of people still hitchhike in Poland and Romania. Perhaps the rising level of 55 in the UK means the few people left hitchhiking are usually considered strange. Why can’t they afford cars?Three-quarters of the UK population have access to a car; many of the remainder will be quite old. The 56 hitchhiking population is therefore small. Yet my trip proves it’s still57 to hitchhike. The people who picked me up were very interesting —lawyer, retired surgeon, tank commander, carpenter, man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple living up in the mountains. My 58 is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes (家伙) in red, spotted scarves. Most just wanted to do someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help 59 .The 60 of hitchhiking most likely lies with car-sharing organized over the Internet, via sites such as hitchhikers. org. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out (actually, I didn’t do much of that, 61 just to hold up my destination sign) and people —wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people — will stop.In the UK, with its cheap coaches and reasonable rail service, I don’t think I’ll make a62 of it.

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)London has become a cycle friendly zone after the launch of a new bike hire scheme. It has been designed to encourage more people to cycle in and around central London.So how does it work？First you have to sign up to the scheme to be sent a key. The key will unlock one of the bikes，which are kept at docking stations in and around central London. You have to pay an access fee for the key and then you pay as you go for the length of time you use the bike.Transport for London, which runs the scheme，are hoping to have 6,000 bikes and 400 docking stations in place by the end of the year. The new hire system is hoping to ea se congestion (拥挤) in London and is expected to create up to 40,000 extra cycle trips a day into the city centre. London Mayor B oris Johnston launched the scheme and said London had been “filled with thousands of gleaming machines that will transform the look and feel of our streets and become as commonplace on our roads as black cabs and red buses”.However，there have been a few problems since the scheme was launched last Friday. On the firs t day some people found they cou ldn’t dock their bike properly and their usage of the bike had not been registered. Transport for London did admit they had been expecting a few “teething problems” and have said they wouldn’t charge for the first day as a “gesture of goodwill”. Some other people have criticized the lack of docking stations and locks for the bikes as well as the price it costs to hire the bicycles.Despite the comments，the green-thinking London Mayor still seems very positive about things, saying, “My campaign for the capital to become the greatest big cycling city in the world has taken a big pedal-powered push forwards.”65. London Mayor Boris Johnston launched the new bike scheme in order to ___________.A. reduce the air pollution of the cityB. encourage the citizens to take exercisesC. deal with the city’s traffic problemsD. increase employment opportunities66. If you want to hire a bike, what would you do first?A. Pay for the bike according to the time you use it.B. Pay for the key to a bike.C. Cycle in and around central London.D. Sign up as a member to get a key.67. All the following are the problems of the scheme EXCEPT___________．A. the high cost to hire a bikeB. not charging for the first day of the schemeC. not registering their usage of the bikesD. docking the bikes properly68. From the passage we can infer that __________.A. the London Mayor is confident in the schemeB. the scheme will be cancelled because of the problemsC. all the citizens in London support the schemeD. the cycling revolution is not successful(B)Sabina Caste Franco Rome October 16,2011—The U.N. World Food program says there are growing concerns over food insecurity in the developing world. Some of those concerns are discussed in a report to agree with the anniversary Sunday of World Food Day.The theme for World Food Day 2011 is “Food Prices —From Crisis to Stability”. A ceremony to mark World Food Day will be held Monday at the headquarters of the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization in Rome. Rising food prices, weather emergencies and political instability are deepening the struggle of families trying to provide for their households in many developing nations. This year’s “State of Food Insecurity in the World” report, published last week, focuses on the impact of food price volatility, confirming that high, unpredictable prices are likely to continue. The report highlighted how poor consumers, small farmers and countries dependent on imports, especially in Africa, have been deeply affected by the food and economic crises.Gregory Barrow is with the World Food Program in Rome. “If you look at the places where World Food program works particularly in developing countries, you see populations of people who might be spending 60, 70, 80 percent of their salaries on purchasing food for their families”. Barrow added that if prices become changeful and generally start rising, even by a small amount, it means that many of these people are going to struggle to put nutritious food on their tables.The report also showed that even short-term fluctuations (波动) in prices can have a long-term effect on development, and that cutting back on nutritious food in the first 1,000 days of a child’s life can affect mental and physical development and finally, future earning capacity. The United Nations has programs in place aimed at reducing the number of hungry people by one-half by 2015. But most observers agree this target is unlikely to be reached.69. The U.N World Food program aims to __________.A. hold a ceremony to mark World Food DayB. provide food for developing nationsC. show concerns over food insecurity in the developing worldD. introduce the U.N Food and Agriculture Organization in Rome70. The underlined word “volatility” in paragraph 2 means __________.A. supplyB. instabilityC. qualityD. control71. According to the report, we can learn that __________.A. people in Africa have been influence d by the food and economic crisesB. the short-term change in prices has nothing to do with developmentC. food price changes have little effect on householdsD. children’s development can be affected by the taking of nutritious food(C)In the past few decades, the popular belief in the area of organizational behaviour and organizational psychology has been that happy workers are better workers. However, new research at the University of Alberta shows that sad workers are more productive.Psychologist Dr. Robert Sinclair and his former PhD student Carrie Lavis recently conducted a series of four studies addressing the effects of experimentally induced(诱发的) happiness versus sadness on work productivity by asking the participants to build circuit boards (电路板). In the first study, sad people committed significantly fewer errors than did happy people (approximately half the number of errors) but there was no difference in the number of boards completed. Thus, sad people were more productive.In similar studies Sinclair and Lavis found the same results along with evidence that happy people might not devote as much energy to the task in order to maintain their happy moods —they considered that task as something that might detract (减去) from their present feelings. Conversely, sad people appeared to be devoting energy to the task in order to divert themselves from their sad feelings. “It is important to know that the moods were unrelated to the task,” said Sinclair. “Unhappiness is coming from something else.”These findings are not surprising, said Sinclair, since there has been a growing body of literature in the area of social psychology demonstrating that sad moods lead to more calm lengthy intent consideration and, often, more thoughtful or accurate judgments.In Sinclair’s following studies, when people believed that the task would make them feel good, they devoted more energy to the job. The bottom line, said Sinclair, is that it is important for organizations to take into account the emotions of their employees. It seems it could be beneficial to creating situations that lead people to believe that performing their jobs will cause them to feel good: this could cause increases in motivation and superior performance.72. The new research done at the University of Alberta shows __________.A. sadness leads to accurate judgmentsB. sad workers are less engaged in their workC. sad workers produce betterD. happiness can make people do well73. The purpose of the series of four studies conducted by Dr. Sinclair was __________.A. to find out the influence of happiness vs. sadness on workB. to ask the subjects to build circuit boardsC. to prove that happy workers are better workersD. to explore the ways how to produce happiness or sadness at work74. According to the third paragraph, the happy workers might not devote as much energyto the task because __________.A. they hate doing the same job for a long timeB. they never feel sadC. happiness diverts them from their taskD. they want to keep their happy moods75. It is suggested in the last paragraph that __________.A. increases in motivation and superior performance are importantB. companies should take into consideration employees’ emotionsC. companies should create situations that make workers feel goodD. employees should do the task that would make them feel good第II 卷(共45分)I.

But beyond just looking dirty, a filthy（肮脏）keyboard might actually make you sick.A 2008 study showed that keyboards can be up to five times dirtier than the average toilet seat. How come? Too often, people don’t __22__ to wash their hands after using the restroom or eating at their desks. In the latter case, sticky fingers transfer sauces and crumbs（食物碎屑）onto and between the keys. Also, our fingers rub skin oils onto the keys. Thus, a keyboard can become a __23__ place for germs to grow.One common bug that researchers have found is staphylococcus aureus（金黄色葡萄球菌）. It is a classic cause of food __24__, signs of which include nausea（恶心）and diarrhea（腹泻）. Stomach sicknesses caused by typing on a dirty keyboard have been dubbed “qwerty tummy” after the “Q-W-E-R-T-Y” keys on a keyboard.The threat posed by a dirty keyboard is quite real, but it can be __25_. The easiest way is to clean your keyboard regularly. Office cleaning __26__ say that keyboards should be unplugged, turned upside down and shaken __27__. By doing so, you can get rid of most of the crumbs. After that, wipe across the keys using a soft cloth with a cleaning solution（清洁剂）. Another way to solve the problem is using a silicon（硅胶）keyboard cover. These thin covers are made to __28 _ over the keys. They prevent food from falling through the cracks and dust from __29__.III.Cloze 10％Good afternoon, and welcome to England. We hope that your visit here will be a __30___ one.

Now you may not buy alcohol drinks in this __32__ if you are under 18 years of age, and your friends may not buy it for you, __33__.Secondly, surroundings.

Use pedestrian crossings and do not take any chances when crossing the road.My next point is about litter (throwing away waste material in a public place).

When you have something to throw away, please put it in your __37__ and take it home, or put it in a litter bin.Finally, as regards smoking, it is __38__ the law to buy cigarettes if you are under 16 years of age.I’d like to finish by saying that if you require any sort of help, you should __39__ the local police station.30.A. pleased B. welcome C. pleasant D. surprising31.A. get B. pay C. draw D. move32.A. town B. country C. city D. village33.A. either B. too C. also D. however34.A. respect B. remain C. remind D. remark35.A. silent B. private C. quiet D. alone36.A. front B. right C. left D. back37.A. clothes B. pocket C. box D. office38.A. against B. for C. behind D. above39.A. arrange B. attract C. maintain D. contactIV.Reading comprehension 6％Personal computers and the Internet give people new choices about how to spend their time.Some may use this freedom to share less time with certain friends or family members, but new technology will also let them stay in closer touch with those they care most about. I know this from personal experience.E-mail makes it easy to work at home, which is where I now spend most weekends and evenings. My working hours aren’t necessarily much shorter than they once were but I spend fewer of them at the office. This lets me share more time with my young daughter than I might have if she’d been born before electronic mail became such a practical tool.The Internet also makes it easy to share thoughts with a group of friends. Say you do something fun—see a great movie perhaps—and there are four or five friends who might want to hear about it. If you call each one, you may tire of telling the story.With E-mail, you just write one note about your experience, at your convenience, and address it to all the friends you think might be interested. They can read your message when they have time, and read only as much as they want to. They can reply at their convenience, and you can read what they have to say at your convenience.E-mail is also an inexpensive way to stay in close touch with people who live far away. More than a few parents use E-mail to keep in touch, even daily touch, with their children off at college.We just have to keep in mind that computers and the Internet offer another way of staying in touch. They don’t take the place of any of the old ways.40.The purpose of this passage is to ________.A. explain how to use the InternetB. describe the writer’s joy of keeping up with the latest technologyC. tell the merits (价值) and usefulness of the InternetD. introduce the reader to basic knowledge about personal computers and the Internet41.The use of E-mail has made it possible for the writer to ________.A. spend less time workingB. have more free time with his childC. work at home on weekendsD. work at a speed comfortable to him42.According to the writer, E-mail has an obvious advantage over the telephone because E-mail helps one________.A. reach a group of people at one time convenientlyB. keep one’s communication as personal as possibleC. pass on much more information than the telephoneD. get in touch with one’s friends faster than the telephone43.The best title for this passage is ________.A. Computer: New Technological AdvancesB. Internet: New Tool to Maintain Good FriendshipC. Computers Have Made Life EasierD. Internet: a Convenient Tool for CommunicationV.Match the situation on the left with the actions on the right 5%44.agreeing with someone A. shaking your head45.strictly obeying someone B. shaking hands with someone46.hoping for something C. nodding your head47.introducing yourself to someone D. crossing your fingers48.disagreeing with someone AB. saluting （敬礼）VI.Fill in the blanks with suitable words according to the meanings in the brackets 5％49.His father used to be a _________ (high in rank or position) officer in the Liberation War.50.Before the speaker began the lecture, he gave a ________ (a movement of hand as part of communication) foreveryone to become quiet.51.I was given some __________ (help) in coming to my decision.52.He said nothing, but his facial __________ (a look o n one’s face that communicates feeling) told useverything.53.________ in class is the key to efficient（有效率的）study.

Getting to know the city as quickly as possible is a must, and one of the best ways of doing this is by using public transport. Once you’re familiar with the city’s feature, it’s important to use your free time reasonably. Take advantage of activities which improve your language skills, such as going to the cinema, theatre, museums. Even shopping trips and visits to the local market can provide opportunities for language practice. Unlike small towns, it’s often difficult to meet local people in large cities. A good starting point can be churches which hold social events orstudents evenings. If you are in a university city, find out where the students socialize and take along a friend. Long-stay students could consider enrolling in evening classes. These mainly attract local people so they are a good place to meet people. If you like acting, you might join in a local theatre group. Invest time and energy in your learning and the city will repay your efforts.11. What’s the best way of knowing the city?12. Why does the speaker suggest shopping trips?13. Where’s the starting point if students want to meet local people?Passage Two.Mrs. Cox teaches English in a large high school located in the inner area of a big city on the West Coast. Mrs. Cox like most of her students, is black. Ever since she was a young girl, Mrs. Cox had wanted to become a teacher. She has taught eight years now and hasn’t changed her mind.After she graduated from high school, Mrs. Cox went on to college. Four years later, she received her academic degree and her teaching certificate. Then she was qualified to teach in the secondary schools of her state.The school day at Mrs. Cox’s high school, like that in many high schools in the United States, is divided into six periods of one hour each. Mrs. Cox must teach five of these six periods. During her free period, which for her is from 2 to 3 p.m. She must meet with parents, order supplies, make out examinations, check assignments and take care of many other things. In short, her free period is not really free at all.In school day, an English teacher usually divides her time among three subjects: language, composition, and literature. Mrs. Cox’s favorite subject is literature, and the most exciting classes she has had lately are those devoted to the literature of Black Americans.14. How many years has Mrs. Cox been teaching in the high school?15. Which of the following is not mentioned in Mrs. Cox’s free period?16. What is Mrs. Cox’s favorite subject?Section C Longer conversationM: Right, if you’ll just give me some personal details…W: Yes.M: Your name, please?W: I’m Mary Prescott.M: Can you spell it?W: Yes, it’s P-R-E-S-C-O-T-T.M: And your address?W: Flat 1, 41 Fountain Road, Canterbury.M: Fountain Road.W: Yes, No. 14.M: And have you got a contact telephone number?W: Yes, it’s 7-5-double 2-3-9-0-1.M: 7-5-double 2-3-9-0-1, fine.

But what if I told you that the (46) _____of procrastination, a phenomenon called pre-crastination, could be just as bad? A new study conducted by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania recently dealt with the topic of pre-crastination—and it turns out that it could be a huge problem for many of us.If you’re wondering how the contrary of procrastination could be a (47) _____ thing, it’s because it means we’re completing tasks just in order to (48) _____ them. Pre-crastination refers to the desire to do things (49) _____, but only to ease the anxiety over leaving a particular task undone.(50) _____, imagine that you have to respond to an email. In your (51) _____ to get the email out of your inbox, you make a bunch of spelling and grammar errors in your response because you typed it out so quickly. That would be a situation of pre-crastination. I know that in my own life, I like to (52) _____ the easy tasks on my to-do list first, since they can be checked off more quickly, making me feel a lot more accomplished in the process. I just thought I was (53) _____, but I now know that this is an action of pre-crastinating the easy tasks so I could say I got them done, while at the same time procrastinating the more (54) _____ tasks I left at the bottom of my list.The discovery of pre-crastination leads to all kinds of questions about (55) _____ and productivity. Now it seems that we have to not only worry about (56) _____ things unnecessarily, but also doing things too fast or completing easy tasks so that we can get them done.The researchers mentioned this in their article, published in Scientific American, in which they advise (57) _____ procrastination and pre-crastination by dividing your large tasks into smaller ones.

A mystery story adapted from Agatha Christie’s novel will be shown on ______.A. BBC1B. BBC2C. ITV1D. Channel 4(B)When I was about 12 years old, my older brother, James, smuggled (偷运) a BB gun into the house. Our parents had told us many times that we were not allowed to bring home guns or knives, even if they were just toys. Having any form of weaponry(兵器) in our home was strictly forbidden.James brought me to his room. He opened his closet door and took out a shoebox that was buried beneath a heap of clothes. The BB gun was inside. I was immediately attracted by the shiny barrel (枪管).“Can I shoot it, James?” I asked, hopefully.“No way,” James said, taking it from me and putting it back.One day, when no one was home, I went into James’ closet and took it out. For some incomprehensible reason - I have no idea what I was thinking - I went to the front window of the second floor in our row house. I cracked the window open. I pointed the gun outside and shot. I quickly shut the window and looked outside secretly.In a matter of seconds, old Mr. Schlosberg came out of his grocery store. He looked back at his store window. He looked up the street. He looked down the street. Then he looked straight across to our house.Thankfully, James made it home before Mother or Father.As he stepped through the door, I could hear old Mr. Schlosberg call his name. “James, James,” he called. “Come here, son.”After several minutes, James ran back across the street and into the living room. I had retreated into the kitchen. “Alma!” he screamed. “Get out here! You cracked Mr. Schlosberg’s window with my BB gun!”“Oh, please, James,” I begged. “Don’t let him tell Mother. She will hit my bottom real good!” James sighed. He wiped my tears and went back across the street to Mr. Schlosberg’s. I don’t know what James said to that man, but there was never a mention of the incident again.Years later, I found out James had used the money he got from his newspaper route to pay for Mr. Schlosberg’s cracked window. He only got one cent for every paper he delivered. He managed to pay back the debt just before he went off to fight in World War Ⅱ.Since that day, I have never touched a gun: a BB gun, a water gun, a real gun, or any other type.63. Why was the gun hidden in the closet?A. The gun was too expensive.B. The family had only one gun.C. The law didn’t allow anyone to have a gun.D. The parents didn’t allow a gun to appear at home.64. The word “retreated” in the middle of the passage is closest in meaning to “_____”.A. rushed happilyB. moved excitedlyC. wandered unhurriedlyD. escaped quietly65. What did Alma expect from James after he shot Mr. Schlosberg’s window?A. To deal with the problem.B. To talk with his parents.C. To throw away the gun.D. To tell the truth.66. Which of the following best describes James as a brother?A. Responsible and strict.B. Brave and determined.C. Responsible and caring.D. Naughty and determined.67. The best title of the passage is ______.A. A Warmhearted BrotherB. A BB GunC. A Cracked windowD. An Incident(C)You either have it or you don’t — a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:•If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.•If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree.Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.•Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.Now you will never get lost again!68. According to the passage, scientists believe that ______.A. some babies are born with a sense of directionB. people learn a sense of direction as they grow olderC. people never lose their sense of directionD. everybody obtains a sense of direction from birth69. What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage?A. They never have a sense of direction without maps.B. They should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction.C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around.D. They can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.70. If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should ______.A. tie it to a tree so as to prevent it from being stolenB. draw a map of the route to help remember where it isC. avoid taking the same route when you come back to itD. remember something easily recognizable on the route71. According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to ______.A. ask policemen for directionsB. use walls, stream, and streets to guide yourselfC. remember your route by looking out for steps and stairsD. count the number of landmarks that you see(D)Challenging work that requires lots of analytical thinking, planning and other managerial skills might help your brain stay sharp as you age, a study published Wednesday in the journal Neurology suggests.Researchers from the University of Leipzig in Germany gathered more than 1,000 retired workers who were over age 75 and assessed the volunteers’ memory and thinking skills through a series of tests. For eight years, the scientists asked the same group to come back to the lab every 18 months to take the same sorts of tests.Those who bad held mentally stimulating (刺激), demanding jobs before retirement tended to do the best on the tests. And they tended to lose cognitive (认知) function at a much slower rate than those with the least mentally challenging jobs. The results held true even after the scientists accounted for the participants’ overall health status.“This works just like physical exercise,” says Francisca Then, who led the study. “After a long run, you may feel like you’re in pain, you may feel tired. But it makes you fit. After a long day at work — sure, you will feel tired, but it can help your brain stay healthy.”It’s not just corporate jobs, or even paid work that can help keep your brain fit, Then points out. A waiter’s job, for example, that requires multitasking, teamwork and decision-making could be just as stimulating as any high-level office work. And “running a family household requires high-level planning and coordinating(协调),” she says. “You have to organize the activities of the children and take care of the bills and groceries.”Of course, our brains can decline as we grow older for lots of reasons — including other environmental influences or genetic factors. Still, continuing to challenge yourself mentally and keeping your mind busy can only help.72. Why did the scientists ask the volunteers to take the tests?A. To assess their health status.B. To evaluate their work habits.C. To analyze their personality.D. To measure their mental ability.73. How does Francisca Then explain her findings in paragraph 4?A. By using an expert’s words.B. By making a comparison.C. By referring to another study.D. By introducing a concept.74. According to paragraph 5, it can be concluded that ______.A. unless you work for the corporate, you cannot keep your brain fitB. working as a waiter could be as mentally challenging as being an office clerkC. any job that challenges your brain is good for your brainD. running a family household without pay can’t help your brain stay healthy75. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Retired Workers Can Pick Up New SkillsB. Old People Should Take Challenging JobsC. Your Tough Job Might Help Keep You SharpD. Cognitive Function May Decline As You AgeSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank wish a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Travel MannersEvery culture has its own unwritten list of behavior that is acceptable. Every society also has its taboos, or types of behavior that are considered a violation (违反) of good manners.The word taboo comes from the Tongan language and is used in modem English to describe verbal and nonverbal behavior that is forbidden or to be avoided. 76 They tend to be specific to a culture or country, and usually form around a group’s values and beliefs. What is considered acceptable behavior in one country may be a serious taboo in another.Verbal taboos usually involve topics that people believe are too private to talk about publicly, or relate to one’s manner of speaking. In many cultures, for example, it is considered bad manners to discuss subjects such as sex or religion in public. In some countries, the volume of one’s voice may annoy people. 7778 . For example, one of the biggest differences among many Western, Asian, and African cultures is the use of eye contact. In the US, people make eye contact when they talk to others. If a person avoids eye contact, others might think they are being dishonest or unconfident. In many Asian and African cultures, however, children are taught to lower their eyes when talking to their elders, or those of higher rank, as a way to show respect.Certain gestures made with the hands can have very different meanings depending on the country you are in. Crossing your middle finger over your forefinger is the sign for good luck in many western countries. 79 . Also, in some Asian countries, moving your hands a lot while talking, or ‘talking with your hands’, is considered unsuitable.Behavior that is acceptable and non-offensive in one culture can be highly offensive in another. When visiting a foreign country, be aware of some of the basic differences, as this will help to ensure a more enjoyable trip.Ⅳ. TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.80.我很想念我童年时居住过的地方.(where)81.你是否意识到了好奇心和兴趣的重要性?(aware)82.很多青少年主动为盲人学生捐赠有声读物.
