It is thefinancial center of the U.S.A, exerting a significant influence upon the world ’s economy. Hetty Green, who was born in 1835, was nicknamed the Wizard (奇才) of Wall Street. She became almost a legendary figure in Wall Street, because she made a lot of money buying and selling shares in companies.Hetty Green began making money when her father died and she inherited all his money. By investing it wisely, she soon built up her fortune to over 100 million dollars. However, she hated spending money on herself or on her family. Actually, she hated spending money on everything except buying shares. She was so mean that when her son Edward broke his leg, she would not send for a doctor. She did not want to have to pay a doctor ’s bill. She refused to send her son to a good hospital. Instead, she took the boy to a free charity hospital. There he did not get very good treatment and, to save his life, he had to have his leg cut off. Still his mother would not pay for proper hospital treatment. She sent for a doctor who cut off the boy ’s leg in her sitting room. It ’s incredible, isn ’tit?31.Wall Street is _______.A.the name of Chinatown in New YorkB.the nickname of New YorkC.the financial center of AmericaD.the tourist center of U.S.A32.Hetty Green was nicknamed the Wizard of Wall Street because she _______.A.made a great fortune with sharesB.inherited a large sum of money from her fatherC.built up a large company on sharesD.was very strange and cruel33.The underlined word “mean”in the second paragraph probably can be replaced by ______.A. sadB. cruelC. disappointedD. ungenerous34.When her son broke his leg, Hetty Green _______.A.sent him to a large hospitalB.sent for a doctor at onceC.didn ’tpay the bill for the doctorD.took him to a charity hospital35.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Hetty Green died a poor old woman.B.Hetty Green preferred money to anything else.C.Hetty Green liked to earn a lot of money so as to live a good life.D.Hetty Green hated her son and refused to take him to a good hospital.Passage 2People once widely believed that intelligent life existed on Mars. The 19th-century discovery ofwhat appeared to be geometric designs cut across the surface was taken as evidence. The lineswere thought to have been a system of canals that had been built to irrigate the surface. It is nowclear that “ canals —” perhaps the most spectacular geologic features of Mars — are naturalvalleys where ancient rivers once flowed.Another fragmented idea concerns the planet ’ s seasonal changes in color. Once attributed to the rapid spread of some life-form, these shifts are now known to develop from the movement offine dust in the atmosphere.By the close of the 20th century none of the many experiments conducted by spacecraft hadever found persuasive evidence of life. Nevertheless, speculation continued over the existence ofsome form of life, in either the present or the past. In 1996 scientists discovered organic compoundsand minerals in a meteorite (陨石) , consisting of Martian rock, that collided with Earth around11,000 B.C. These compounds suggest that Mars may have been inhabited by organisms more thanthree billion years ago.36.Why did people in the 19th century believe the existence of intelligent life on Mars?A.Because the surface of Mars seemed to be geometric.B.Because the lines were drawn across the surface of the planet.C.Because a system of canals was thought to be there.D.Because it was the Martians that built the canals.37.The “ canals ” on Mars have proved to be ______ according to the passage.A.the minor geologic characteristic of MarsB.natural valleys on the surface of MarsC.rivers that have kept flowing since ancient timesD.a system that irrigates the whole surface38.What were the Mars’ seasonal changes in color believed to be?A.The natural changes on the planet.B.The seasonal cycles.C.The movement of some life form.D.The storm of dust in its atmosphere.39.How is the 1996 discovery related to the possible existence of organisms on Mars?A.The meteorite containing organic compounds is part of Mars.B.A Martian rock struck Earth about 11,000 years ago.C.The organisms came back to life after the collision with Earth.D.The inhabiting organisms appeared more than three billion years ago.40.How many arguments in this passage lead to the belief of the existence of life on Mars?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.Passage 3Have you ever wondered why different animals or pests have their particular colors?Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Birds, especially seagulls, are very fond of locusts, but birds cannot easily catch locustsbecause locusts change their colors together with the change of the color of crops. When crops aregreen, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe, locusts take on exactly the same brown coloras crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of coloring isto protect themselves. Bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible to the eyes of hunters, because they have the color much like the barks of trees.An even more strange act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send outa kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemiescannot find it, and it immediately swims away. Thus, it has existed up to now though it is not powerful at all.41.This passage mainly talks about ______.A.the change of color in locustsB.the protective coloration of animals and pestsC.how a certain sea fish protects itselfD.animals or pests can dye themselves different colors42.Locusts are not easily wiped out by their enemies because ______.A.they are powerful enoughB.they are dangerous to their enemiesC.they take on the same colors as cropsD.they fly extraordinarily fast43.The pests that have different colors from plants usually appear at night because ______.A.birds take their rest when night comesB.their enemies can easily find them and eat themC.they have the habit of coming out in darknessD.it ’s easy for them to destroy plants in darkness44.Bears and wolves have the same colors as barks of trees because ______.A.they fear other beastsB.they prefer brown or grey colorsC.they enjoy walking through forests quietlyD.the colors help prevent themselves from being noticed45.A certain fish living in seas has lived through millions of years because ______.A.it is the most powerful in the seaB.it can swim much faster than any other fishC.it can send out a kind of liquid which makes its enemies unable to find itD.it can send out a kind of liquid which can kill its enemiesPassage 4High school dropouts(辍学者) earn an average of $ 9,000 less per year than graduates. Now a new study dispels a common belief why they quit. It ’s much more basic than flunking out (不及格) .Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can ’tcut it. They are lazy ,and perhaps not two bright . So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who quit school about why they left.“ The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could havegraduated from high school.”John Bridgeland, the executive researcher said. About 1 millionteens leave school each year. Only about half of African-American and Hispanic(美籍西班牙的)student will receive a diploma,and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision. So,iffailing grades don ’texplain why these kids quit, what does? Again,John Bridgeland:“The most dependable finding was that they were bored.”“ Theyfound classes uninteresting; they weren ’ t inspired or motivated. They didn’ t see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives, or to their career aspirations.”The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen, which happensto be the age at which most states allow students to quit. In the US ,only one state,New Mexico ,has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate. Only four states: California, Tennessee, Texas and Utah, plus the District of Columbia, require school attendanceuntil age 18, no exceptions, another researcher , says raising the compulsory attendance agemay be one way to keep more kids in school.“As these dropouts look back ,they realize they ’ve made a mistake. And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and it through to the end, is probably helpfulmeasure.”New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18. But critics saythat forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point-theneed for reform. It's been called for to reinvent high school education to make it more challengingand relevant, and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something.46.Most high school students drop out of school because __.A.they have failing gradesB.they take no interest in classesC.they are discriminated againstD.they are lazy and not intelligentattendance until they47. According to the passage, which state has a law requiring schoolgraduate?A. New HampshireB. UtahC. New MexicoD. The District of Columbia48. The underlined words “stick it out ”probably means “__”.A. complete schoolingB. solve the problemC. love having classesD. believe in themselves49.In the last paragraph, the writer is trying to_________.A.analyze the reason why students quit schoolB.suggest raising the compulsory attendance ageC.raise awareness of reforming high school educationD.wish to make laws to guarantee no education50. From the passage, we can infer the following EXCEPT that_.A. the grades of most dropouts at school were acceptableB. on average dropouts cannot get good jobsC. classes don't appeal to dropoutsD. about 500, 000 high school dropouts are black and SpanishPassage 5People living on parts of the south coast of England face a serious problem. In 1993 , the owners of a large hotel and of several houses discovered, to their horror, that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea had eaten into the soft limestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were studying the problem, the hotel and several houses disappearedaltogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea.Erosion(侵蚀)of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people , forecasting the year in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea.Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes.Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases,this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say, until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile , if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future , apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home.51.What is the cause of the problem that people living on parts of the south coast of England face?A.The rising of the sea level.B.The experts’ lack of knowledge.C.The washing-away of limestone cliffs.D.The disappearance of hotels, houses and gardens.52. The erosion of the white cliffs in the south of England.A. will soon become a problem for people living in central EnglandB. has now become a threat to the local residentsC. can be stopped if proper measures are takenD. is quickly changing the map of England53. The experts study’ on the problem of erosion can.A. warn people whose homes are in danger54.It is not feasible to build sea defenses to protect against erosion because ________.A.house agents along the coast do not support the ideaB.it is too costly and will endanger neighboring areasC.the government is too slow in taking actionD.they will be easily knocked down by waves and currents55.According to the author ,when buying a house along the south coast of England ,people should ________________.A. take the quality of the house into considerationB. guard against being cheated by the house agentC. examine the house carefully before making a decisionD. be aware of the potential danger involvedPassage 6Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.56. Normally a student would at least attend ________ classes each week.A. 36B. 20C. 12D. 1557.According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed ________.A.to live in a different universityB.to get two degrees from two different universitiesC.to live at home and drive to classesD.to take a particular course in a different university58.American university students are usually under pressure of work because ________.A.their academic performance will affect their future careersB.they are heavily involved in student affairsC.they have to observe university disciplineD.they want to run for positions of authority59.Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probably because ________.A.they hate the constant pressure strain of their studyB.they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC.such positions help them get better jobsD.such positions are usually well paid60.The student organizations seem, to be effective in ________.A.dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB. ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC. evaluating students’ performance by bringing them before a courtD. keeping up the students’ enthusiasm for social activitiesIII.

英语2考前辅导整理人:兰-08秋教管一、选词填空1、While I was waiting to enter university, I saw advertised in a local newspaper a teaching post at a school in a suburb of London about ten miles from where I lived. Being very short of money and wanting to do something useful, I applied, fearing as I did so, that without a degree and with no experience in teaching my chances of getting the job were slim.2、However, three days later a letter arrived, asking me to go to Croydon for an interview. It proved an awkward journey: a train to Croydon station; a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of at least a quarter of a mile. As a result I arrived on a hot June morning too depressed to feel nervous.3、Now in the last month of my residency, sleeping was no longer a problem. There were still situations in which I couldn't be certain my decision had been the right one, but I had learned to accept this as a constant problem for a surgeon, one that could never be completely resolved--and I could live with it. So, once I had made a considered decision, I no longer dwelt on it. Reviewing it wasn't going to help and I knew that with my knowledge and experience, any decision I'd made was bound to be a sound one. It was a nice feeling.4、All that sleepless night I replayed the moment those black gloves came up to the car window. How long did the whole thing last? Three minutes, five, eight? No matter. how many hours of my life I may spend reliving it, I know there is no way to prepare for the next time - no intelligent response to a gun. The fat cop was right: There's only luck. The next time I might end up dead.5、And I'm sure there will be a next time. It can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. Security is an illusion; there is no safety in locks or in guns. Guns make some people feel safe and some people feel strong, butthey're fooling themselves.6、School children used to know the story of how Abraham Linooln walked five miles to return a pennyhe'd overcharged a customer. It's the kind of story we think of as myth. But in the case of Lincoln, the story is true... unlike the story of George Washington and the cherry tree. Washington's first biographer inventedthe tale of little George saying to his father, "I cannot tell a lie. I did it with my ax. " What is important in both stories, however, is that honesty was seen as an important part of the American character.二、选择题Unit 1:1 Industrial cities such as Chicage and Detroit have severely Polluted the waters of the Great Lakes.2 The doctor‟s report indicated that her death was due to heart disease.3 Medical researchers reached the conclusio n long ago that smoking is a serious hazard to health.4 George Washington, the first President of the United States, is known as the Father of His Country.5 The fire that broke out in the plant during the night was still seen giving off a lot of smoke the next morning.6 They have invented a new type of washing machine.7 The movie we are going to see is said to be based on the life story of an American general.8 The fence along the middle of the road is intended to protect vehicles from crashing in to each other.9 Supporters of gun control have worked for many years to ban the sale of deadly handguns in America.10 My native town, which was originally rather small, has now been built into one of the biggest cities in the province.11 The twin towers of the World Trade Center stick up over Manhattan island in New York city.12 The speaker said something about the actors first and then proceeded to talk about the film.13 We had a long debate as to whether we should spend so much money on space technology.14 A plate dropped from her fingers and smashed /was1 The hostsmall number of guests who attended.2 Shouts of protest sprang up from the angry crowd.3 Many people have the bad habit of spending money on impulse.4 The tone of the teacher‟s voice was gentle but authoritative.5 By careful examination, the doctors hope to track down the source of the infection.6 The attack on Pearl Harbor on December7, 1941 was an unexpected event which brought America into World War2.7 The coat fits the boy perfectly now, but he will outgrow it in a year‟s time.8 The man‟s eyes widened with fear when he saw the robber‟s gun.9 He resumed his regular working hours shortly after he came out of hospital.10 New problems emerge/spring up when old ones are solved.11 Johnny‟s mouth watered at the sight of the big pudding.12 At the first light of dawn the warships made for the open sea.Unit 3:1 A man of humble origin ,Lincoln eventually became President of the United States through his own efforts.2 The floods are threatening most of the villages in the area.3 Many species of animals which once lived on the earth are no longer in existence.4 Once he realizes that it is his mistake, Jim never hesitates to admit and correct it.5 The custom of having one‟s marriage arranged by parents has disappeared in many parts of the world but continues in some Asian and African countries.6 History show that the United States as a nation owes a great deal to the Afro-Americans.7 Acting on the advice of his doctor, Mr. Park had his eye operated on right after he retired last week.8 There is no sense in leaving important decisions to inexperienced people.9 Noticing that my daughter was very shy, out hostess went out to make her feel at home.10 Mrs. Brown, who has recently been appointed general manager of out company, is one of the most capable women I have ever worked with.11 My friend Joe is an experienced doctor, He can be trusted to perform the delicate operations.12 Martin Luther King and Malcolm X were both leaders in Afro American‟s struggle for equal rights; the former a supporter of non-violent struggle, and the latter an advocate of revolution.13 I don‟t want to influence you.

The body needs them for life and health. So naturally, many people are concerned with the question: Am I getting enough vitamins, and am I getting the right kind?Even though very small amounts of each vitamin are enough for the needs of the body, that many people have not enough vitamins has some basis. And this has something to do with their diet — the food they take in. A person eating a good variety of foods gets all the vitamins now known to be needed with the possible exception of vitamin D. The problem is that there are many people who don’t choose foods wisely, don’t get enough variety,and don’t eat the basic foods they need to get their vitamins. So the answer to this question is: No extra vitamins are needed, if you eat proper food. In fact, many of the vitamins can not be stored in the body, so when extra vitamins are taken in, the body simply gets rid of them. It is even harmful to put toomuch of certain vitamins into the body. This has been found to be true of vitamin A and D, when large amounts are taken in.What foods supply what vitamins? Here is a general idea. Vitamin A, for the health of the eyes, skin, teeth, and bones, is found in green vegetables, fruits, eggs, liver and butter. Vitamin B1 which helps the nervous and digestive systems and prevents certain diseases, is found in cereals, pork and liver. Vitamin B2 is found in milk, eggs, green vegetables and meats. Vitamin C, which helps bones and teeth, is found in tomatoes, certain fruits and vegetables. These are only a few of the most important vitamins the body needs.1) Our body needs ______ for life and health.A) small amounts of each vitamin B) extra vitaminsC) all vitamins except vitamin D D) large amounts of certain vitamins2) Vitamin A is needed by____ and can be found in ______.A) bones, pork B) nervous system, milkC) eyes, green vegetables D) teeth, meats3) Vitamin B1 is very important to ______.A) the digestive system B) bones C) liver D) skin4) What will be the result if you take more vitamins than you really need?A) They will do great harm to our body.B) We get all the vitamins needed.C) Our body will function more properly.D) Our body simply gets rid of them.5) The passage has probably been taken from ______.A) a sports magazine B) a journal of medical scienceC) an aged magazine D) a youth journalACADB第八单元1) It is best if divorced parents can _________ friendly relations for the sake of the children.A) stay B) reserve C) maintain D) preserve2) Jim was in _________.

After buying .some magazines to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase. I had left three days before. There were only a few people waiting, and I took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case. The receipt did not seem to be where I had left it. I emptied the contents of the wallet, and railway tickets, money, scraps of paper, and photographs tumbled out of it; but no matter how hard I searched, the receipt was nowhere to be found.When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. The man looked at me suspiciously as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case, I told him that it was an old, brown — looking object no different from the many cases I could see on the shelves. The assistant then gave me a form and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case. If they were correct, he said, I could take the case away. I tried to remember all the articles I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down as they came to me.After I had done this, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds of cases there and for one dreadful moment, it occurred to me that if someone had picked the receipt up, he could have easily claimed the case already. This had not happened fortunately, for after a time, I found the case lying on its side high up in a comer. After examining the articles inside, the assistant was .soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I could take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. I pulled out a ten— shilling note and the "lost" receipt slipped out with it. I could not help blushing and glanced up at the assistant. He was nodding his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen before too!1. The writer needed the receipt ____.A. to claim his suitcaseB. to pay at the luggage officeC. to prove that he had paid at the luggage officeD. to prove that he had bought the suitcase2. The writer felt foolish because ____.A. he couldn't find his receiptB. he hadn't really lost his receipt at allC. he had to fill in a formD. the assistant was laughing at him3. There weren't ______ people waiting at the luggage office.A. very muchB. a lotC. lotsD. very many4. 'situation' means .A. incidentB. eventC. placeD. position5. ' wrote them down ' means ____.A. copied themB. made a note of themC. signed themD. pointed at themPassage2The word conservation has a thrifty meaning. To conserve is to save and protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such good condition that others may also share the enjoyment.Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials: most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures were "limitless" and "inexhaustible". Most of the citizens of earlier generations knew little or nothing about the complicated and delicate system that runs all through nature, and which means that, as in a living body, an unhealthy condition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the othersFifty years ago, nature study was not part of the school work; scientific forestry was a new idea; timber was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands; soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied long— term climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word "conservation "had nothing of the meaning that it has for us today.For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about repairing the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should, therefore, be made a part of everyone's daily life. To know about the water table (地下⽔位) in the ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic arithmetic formulas. We need to know why all watersheds need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and rivers must be made to yield their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the importance of big, mature trees, because living space for most of man's fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic volume above the earth. In brief, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.6. The author's altitude towards current situation in the exploitation of natural resources isA. criticalB. neutralC. positiveD. suspicious7. According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that _____A. they had no idea about scientific forestryB. they were not aware of the significance of nature studyC. they had little or no sense of environmental protectionD. they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials8. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that earlier generations didn't realizeA. the importance of the proper use of landB. the value of the beauty of natureC. the harmfulness of soil destruction and river floodsD. the interdependence of water, soil, and living things9. To avoid the mistakes of our forefathers, the author suggests that ______.A. we plant more treesB. we return to natureC. natural sciences be taught to everybodyD. environmental education be directed toward everyone10. What does the author imply by saying "living space ''is figured ''also in cubic volume above the earth" ? ( para.3 )A. We need to take some measures to protect spaceB. Our living space should measured in cubic volumeC. Our living space on the earth is getting smaller and smallerD. We must preserve good living conditions for both birds and animalsⅣ Translate the following phrases(翻译下列短语:汉语译成英语;英语译成汉语。

Reading ComprehensionPassage 1Wall Street is the name of a street in New York and very famous in the wholeworld. It is the financial center of the U.S.A, exerting a significant influenceupon the world ’ s economy. Hetty Green, who was born in 1835, was nicknamed the Wizard (奇才) of Wall Street. She became almost a legendary figure in Wall Street, because she made a lot of money buying and selling shares in companies.Hetty Green began making money when her father died and she inherited all hismoney. By investing it wisely, she soon built up her fortune to over 100 milliondollars. However, she hated spending money on herself or on her family. Actually,she hated spending money on everything except buying shares. She was so mean thatwhen her son Edward broke his leg, she would not send for a doctor. She did not want to have to pay a doctor ’ s bill. She refused to send her son to a good hospital.Instead, she took the boy to a free charity hospital. There he did not get very good treatment and, to save his life, he had to have his leg cut off. Still his motherwould not pay for proper hospital treatment. She sent for a doctor who cut off theboy’ s leg in her sitting room. It ’ s incredible, isn ’ t it?31.Wall Street is _______.A.the name of Chinatown in New YorkB.the nickname of New YorkC.the financial center of AmericaD.32.Hetty Green was nicknamed the Wizard of Wall Street because she _______.A.made a great fortune with sharesB.inherited a large sum of money from her fatherC.built up a large company on sharesD.was very strange and cruel33.The underlined word“ mean” in the second paragraph probably can be replaced by______.A. sadB. cruelC. disappointedD. ungenerous34.When her son broke his leg, Hetty Green _______.A.sent him to a large hospitalB.sent for a doctor at onceC.didn ’ t pay the bill for the doctorD.took him to a charity hospital35.Which of the following is true according to the passage?B. Hetty Green preferred money to anything else.C. Hetty Green liked to earn a lot of money so as to live a good life.D. Hetty Green hated her son and refused to take him to a good hospital.Passage 2People once widely believed that intelligent life existed on Mars. The 19th-century discovery of what appeared to be geometric designs cut across thesurface was taken as evidence. The lines were thought to have been a system of canals that had been built to irrigate the surface. It is now clear that “canals ” — perhaps the most spectacular geologic features of Mars — are natural valleys where ancient rivers once flowed.Another fragmented idea concerns the planet ’ s seasonal changes in color. Once attributed to the rapid spread of some life-form, these shifts are now known todevelop from the movement of fine dust in the atmosphere.By the close of the 20th century none of the many experiments conducted byspacecraft had ever found persuasive evidence of life. Nevertheless, speculationcontinued over the existence of some form of life, in either the present or the past. In 1996 scientists discovered organic compounds and minerals in a meteorite (陨石) , consisting of Martian rock, that collided with Earth around 11,000 B.C. These compounds suggest that Mars may have been inhabited by organisms more than threebillion years ago.36. Why did people in the 19th century believe the existence of intelligent lifeon Mars?A. Because the surface of Mars seemed to be geometric.B. Because the lines were drawn across the surface of the planet.C. Because a system of canals was thought to be there.D. Because it was the Martians that built the canals.37.The “canals ” on Mars have proved to be ______ according to the passage.A.the minor geologic characteristic of MarsB.natural valleys on the surface of MarsC.rivers that have kept flowing since ancient timesD.a system that irrigates the whole surface38.What were the Mars’ seasonal changes in color believed to be?A.The natural changes on the planet.B.The seasonal cycles.C.The movement of some life form.D.The storm of dust in its atmosphere.39. Howis the 1996 discovery related to the possible existence of organisms on Mars? A. The meteorite containing organic compounds is part of Mars.B. A Martian rock struck Earth about 11,000 years ago.C. The organisms came back to life after the collision with Earth.D. The inhabiting organisms appeared more than three billion years ago.40. How many arguments in this passage lead to the belief of the existence of lifeon Mars?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.Passage 3Have you ever wondered why different animals or pests have their particularcolors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Birds, especially seagulls, are very fond of locusts, but birds cannot easilycatch locusts because locusts change their colors together with the change of thecolor of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe,locusts take on exactly the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests withdifferent colors from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies.So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the mainuse of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible to the eyes of hunters, because theyhave the color much like the barks of trees.An even more strange act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seascan send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it, and it immediately swims away. Thus, it has existed up to now though it is not powerful at all.41.This passage mainly talks about ______.A.the change of color in locustsB.the protective coloration of animals and pestsC.how a certain sea fish protects itselfD.animals or pests can dye themselves different colors42.Locusts are not easily wiped out by their enemies because ______.A.they are powerful enoughB.they are dangerous to their enemiesC.they take on the same colors as cropsD.they fly extraordinarily fast43.

A certain fish living in seas has lived through millions of years because ______.A. it is the most powerful in the seaB. it can swim much faster than any other fishC. it can send out a kind of liquid which makes its enemies unable to find itD. it can send out a kind of liquid which can kill its enemiesPassage 4High school dropouts(辍学者)earn an average of $ 9,000 less per year than graduates. Now a new study dispels a common belief why they quit. It’s much more basic than flunking out(不及格).Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can’ t cut it.They are lazy , and perhaps not two bright . So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who quit school about why they left.“ The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident thatthey could have graduated from high school. ” John Bridgeland, the executive researcher said. About 1 million teens leave school each year. Only about half ofAfrican-American and Hispanic (美籍西班牙的) student will receive a diploma , and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision. So , if failing grades don ’t explain why these kids quit, what does? Again , John Bridgeland: “ The most dependable finding was that they were bored. ” “They found classes uninteresting; they weren ’t inspired or motivated. They didn ’ t see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives, or to their careeraspirations. ”The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen,which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit. In the US,only one state ,New Mexico , has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high schooluntil they graduate. Only four states: California, Tennessee, Texas and Utah, plus the District of Columbia, require school attendance until age 18, no exceptions,another researcher , says raising the compulsory attendance age may be one way tokeep more kids in school.“ As these dropouts look back , they realize they ’ ve made a mistake. And anythingthat sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and it through to the end, is probably helpful measure. ”New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18.But critics say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies tostay in school misses the point - the need for reform. It's been called for to reinventhigh school education to make it more challenging and relevant, and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something.46. Most high school students drop out of school because __.A. they have failing gradesB. they take no interest in classesC. they are discriminated againstD. they are lazy and not intelligent47. According to the passage , which state has a law requiring school attendance until they graduate?A. New HampshireB. UtahC. New MexicoD. The District of Columbia48.

From the passage,we can infer the following EXCEPT that_.A. the grades of most dropouts at school were acceptableB. on average dropouts cannot get good jobsC. classes don't appeal to dropoutsD. about 500, 000 high school dropouts are black and SpanishPassage 5People living on parts of the south coast of England face a serious problem.In 1993,the owners of a large hotel and of several houses discovered, to their horror, that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea had eaten into the softlimestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were studying theproblem, the hotel and several houses disappeared altogether,sliding down the cliff and into the sea.Erosion (侵害) of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts havestudied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people , forecasting the year in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea.Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes. Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases , this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make thewaves and currents go further along the coast,shifting the problem from one areato another. The danger is likely to continue,they say,until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile , if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future,apply to a house agent in oneof the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for aknockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home.51. What is the cause of the problem that people living on parts of the south coast of England face?A. The rising of the sea level.B. The experts’ lack of knowledge.C. The washing-away of limestone cliffs.D. The disappearance of hotels,houses and gardens.52. The erosion of the white cliffs in the south of England.A. will soon become a problem for people living in central EnglandB. has now become a threat to the local residentsC. can bestopped if proper measures are taken D. is quickly changing themap of England53. The experts’ study on the problem of erosion can.A. warn people whose homes are in dangerB. provide an effective way to slow it downC. help to prevent it from worseningD. lead to its eventual solution54.It is not feasible to build sea defenses to protect against erosion because________.A.house agents along the coast do not support the ideaB.it is too costly and will endanger neighboring areasC.the government is too slow in taking actionD.they will be easily knocked down by waves and currents55. According to the author , when buying a house along the south coast of England ,people should ________________.A. take the quality of the house into considerationB. guard against being cheated by the house agentC. examine the house carefully before making a decisionD. be aware of the potential danger involvedPassage 6Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards adegree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists ofthirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student willprobably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for astudent to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. Allthis imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this somestudents still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work ofmaintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academicauthorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, bycheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A studentwho has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it willbe of benefit to him later in his career.56. Normally a student would at least attend ________ classes each week.A. 36B. 20C. 12D. 1557.According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed ________.A.to live in a different universityB.to get two degrees from two different universitiesC.to live at home and drive to classesD.to take a particular course in a different university58. American university students are usually under pressure of work because ________.A. their academic performance will affect their future careersB. they are heavily involved in student affairsC. they have to observe university disciplineD. they want to run for positions of authority59. Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probably because ________.A. they hate the constant pressure strain of their studyB. they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC. such positions help them get better jobsD. such positions are usually well paid60.The student organizations seem, to be effective in ________.A.dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB.ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC.evaluating students’ performance by bringing them before a courtD.keeping up the students’ enthusiasm for social activitiesIII.Vocabulary and Structure 61.I prefer to read ______ idle.A. to sitB. to sittingC. than to sitD. rather than sit62.

When I first had the idea of selling books on the Internet, I went to my boss and said to him, “You know, I’m going to start this company selling books online.” This was something that I had already been talking to him about, but then he said, “Let’s go on a walk.” And we went on a two-hour walk in Central Park in New York City.After walking for a while, he said, “You know, this sounds like a really good idea to me, but it might be a better idea for somebody who didn’t already have a good job.” He let me think about it for 48 hours before making the final decision.When I talked to my wife about this, she thought I was doing the right thing and said, “Look, you know I’m always supporting you, whatever you want to do.” So it really was a decision that I had to make for myself. I imagined myself at age of 80 and saying, “Okay, now I’m looking back on my life. I hope that I have had as few regrets in my life as possible.” I knew that when I was 80 I was not goingto regret having tried this.

An American inventor named Eli Whitney thought of one of them, which is known as “standardization of parts”. In an effect to speed up production in his gun factory, Whitney decided that each part of a gun could be made by machines so that it would be exactly like all the others of its kind. For example, each trigger (扳机) could be replaced immediately by an identical (相同的) one. After Whitney’s idea was applied to automobile production, each part no longer had to be made by hand. Machines were developed that could produce hundreds, even thousands, of identical parts that would fit into place easily and quickly.Another American, Henry Ford, developed the idea of assembly line (装配线). Before Ford introduced the assembly line, each car was built by hand. Such a process was, of course, very slow. As a result, automobiles were so expensive that only rich people could afford them. Ford proposed a system in which each worker would have a special job to do.One people, for example, would make only a portion of the wheels. Another would place the wheels on the car. And still another would insert the bolts (插入螺栓) that held the wheels to the car. Each worker needed to learn only one or two routine tasks. With the increase in production made possible by assembly line, automobiles became much cheaper, and more and more people were able to afford them.41. At first, “standardization of parts” was used to_________ .A. make more automobilesB. make moremachinesC. make more gunsD. make moretriggers42.

In 1790, George Washington was asked to selected a site for the newly designed federal district. Not much to anyone’s surprise but to the disappointment of many, he chose a piece of land on the banks of the Potomac River a few miles upstream from his beloved plantation Mount Vernon.The District of Columbia (Washington, D.C.) was taken in part from virginia and in part from Maryland. At the time it was laid out, its hundred square miles consisted of gently rolling hills with heavy woods, a number of streams and much land along the Potomac River. There is now a section of Washington that is commonly referred to as Foggy Boston; that section had the same nickname a hundred and eight years ago. Two part cities, Alexandria and Georgetown, lied within sight of the new capital.So it was easy to go by ship to the most important cities of the new nation from the new capital --- Charlestown, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, Portsmouth and also to the far-off ports of England and European Continent.1.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statement. For each of them there are four choices marked A) , B) ,C) and D) .You should decide on the best choice and write down the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet.Passage 1There is, perhaps, no other sport in the world quite so exciting as skiing. For viewers, it is a scene of unrivalled(无对手的)beauty. For skiers, it is a vivid personal experience, a thrilling (激动)test of mind, muscle, and nerves. And more and more, Americans are discovering this thrill for themselves. Not too long ago, skiing had virtually no part in the American sports scene. If it were thought of at all, it was purely as a European sport. Then came the 1932 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, New York. Americans got their first good look at skiing and made for the hills. Today ski trains make regular runs from our cities to the great, white outdoors. Lodges(小屋)and cabins dot the mountain sides offering skiers the warmth of their firesides.In addition to joy and excitement, skiing offers other attractions. It is a comparatively inexpensive sport, and, for the young, the art of skiing is often mastered in a very short time.The special thrill of skiing is well described by Buddy Werner, “It’s all up to you,” he says, “No teammates can help. You’re alone. It’s you against the snow, the mountains, yourself. You’re a fighter.”1. Skiing _______.A. has always been popular in the United StatesB. has only recently become a popular American sportC. can never become popular in the USA.D. has only recently become popular in Europe2. In 1932, when the Winter Olympics were held at Lake Placid, _______.A. Americans became enthusiastic about the sportB. Americans saw skiing for the first timeC. America did not enter the competitionD. America finished in last place3. By the expression “made for the hills”, the author means that _______.A. Americans took up skiingB. Americans were afraid of skiingC. skiing became popular only in the woodsD. the only place Americans could ski was in the mountains at Lake Placid4. Young people like skiing because _______.A. it takes a long time to learnB. it is extremely dangerousC. the skill can be mastered in a short timeD. skiers never get injured5. According to the Buddy Werner, the special excitement of skiing lies in the fact that it ______.A. is a team sportB. teaches one to get along well in a groupC. makes good soldiersD. puts the skier alone against the elementsPassage 2After practising as a surgeon for several years, Dr. Ginoux decided to apply for membership in the American College of Surgeons (美国外科医生学会), a highly selective and distinguished professional organization.As part of the application procedure (手续), Dr. Ginoux was asked to prepare a list of all the operations performed in the previous seven years. Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began to feel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case?Maybe, in this case, she should have run one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have ... Would the doctors on the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon in the area, she usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgment? Dr. Ginoux felt lonely and isolated.The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the more depressed she became. As hope faded, she wondered is a “country doctor” had a realistic chance of being accepted by the American College of Surgeons.6. Dr. Ginoux was working in __________.A.a large cityB. the American College of SurgeonsC. a selective organizationD. an area far from any big city7. The application forms must include _____________.A. the decision procedureB. the best techniqueC. record of all the operationsD. a list of advice and judgments8. It was most probable that Dr. Ginoux was ________.A. a well-trained surgeonB. a member in that organizationC. a graduate from the American College of SurgeonsD. a distinguished surgeon in America9. When she was filling the application forms, Dr. Ginoux began to be _______.A. r ealisticB. distinguishedC.perplexedD. decisive10. When filling the forms, Dr. Ginoux felt depressed because _______.A.she was doubtful about her operationsB.she didn’t perform enough operationsC.some operations were unsuccessfulD.she didn’t get advice from the selective committeePassage 3Immediately I got up and dressed, stuck my violin under my jacket, and went out into the streets to try my luck. I wandered about for an hour, looking for a likely spot, feeling as though I were about to commit a crime. Then I stopped at last under a bridge near the station and decided to have a try.I felt tense and nervous: One moment I was part of the hurrying crowds, the next I stood apart, my back to the wall, my hat on the pavement(人行道) before me, the violin under my chin.The first notes I played were loud and raw, then they settleddown and began to run more smoothly. T o my surprise I was neither arrested nor told to shut up. Indeed, nobody took any notice at all. Then an old man without stopping secretly tossed a penny into my hat, as though getting rid of some guilty evidence.Other pennies followed, slowly but steadily, dropped by shadows who appeared not to see or hear me. It seemed too easy, like a secret trick.I worked there for several days, gradually acquiring the truths of the trade by trial and error. It was not a good thing, for instance, to let the hat fill up with money; nor was it wise to empty it completely. Placing a couple of pennies in the hat to start the thing going soon became a regular rule.1. When he first began to play the violin, he expected ______.A. to get into troubleB. to play better than he didC. people to stop and listen to himD. to be told to move somewhere else2. The first man who gave him money ______.A. was too busy to stopB. wanted to get rid of himC. dropped the money by mistakeD. did not want to attract attention3.

He found that the best way of encouraging people to give him money was to ______.A. play in different streetsB. leave all the money in the hatC. empty the hat at regular intervalsD. leave a small amount of money in the hatPassage 4The basic flag of the United States is one of the world’s oldest national flags. Only the flags of Austria, Denmark, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Sweden and Switzerland are older.During the discovery and settlement of what is now the United States, the flags of various European nations were flown over the land, as symbols of possession. Later, the colonial and Revolutionary War periods, flags representing famous persons, places, and events were flown in the American colonies.The first official flag of the United States was created by Congress on June 14, 1777. It consisted of 13 alternate red and white stripes and 13 white stars in the field of blue, representing the 13 colonies that had declared their independence in 1776. Congress adopted a new flag of 15 stars and 15 stripes in 1795, to give representation to the two new states admitted into the Union, Vermont and Kentucky.By 1817, there were 20 states in the Union, and it became apparent that adding on stripe for each new state would destroy the shape of the flag. As a result, congress in 1818 restored the original design of 13 stripes and provided that each state was to be represented by one star. In 1912 President William H. Taft made the first official provision for the arrangement of the stars.He ordered that there be six even rows of eight stars each. Previously the arrangement of the stars had been left to the flag-maker’s fancy.The evolution of the Stars and Stripes reflects the growth of the United States. After the admission of Hawaii into the Union in 1959, the flag was officially changed for the 26th time since its creation.There are many government flags flown in the United States in addi tion to the national flag. Among them are the president’s and vice-president’s flags and those of the federal departments and some federal agencies. Each state in the Union has an official flag. The United States Navy uses special flags for signaling.6. The basic flag of the United States is _______.A. the oldest national flag in the worldB. one of the national flag in the worldC. the most beautiful flag in the WestD. as old as the basic flags of some European nations7. The first official flag of the United States was adopted ________.A. before the Independent WarB. right after the Independent WarC. when independence was declared in 1776D. during the War of Independence which ended in 17838. The 13 red and white stripes and 13 white stars represent ________.A. 13 independent statesB. the colonies that declared independence in 1776C. the United States congressD. 13 famous fighters in the American colonies9. The original design of 13 stripes restored in 1818 because________.A. too many stripes would destroy the shape of the flagB.

,some shops offered 35 .These shops included drugstores,restaurants,shoe-repair stores,and barber or hairdressing shops. 36 in the 1950s,a change began to 37 .Too many automobiles had crowded into Main Street 38 too few parking places were 39 shoppers.Because the streets were crowded,merchants began to look with interest at the open spaces 40the city limits.Open space is what their car driving

Central Valley doesn’t generally experience the sound and lightning that can go with those rains,it’s still important for parents to be ableto answer the youthful questions about thunder and lightning.The reason these two wonders of nature are so difficult for many adults (成年人)to explain to children is that they are not very well understood by adults themselves.Fox example,did you know that the lightning we see flashing down to the earth from a cloud is actually flashing up to a cloud from the earthOur eyes trick us into thinking we see a downward motion when it’s actually flashing up to a cloud from the earthOur eyes trick us into thinking we see a downward motion when it’s actually the other way around.But then,if we believed only what we think and we see,we’d still insist that the sun rises in the morning and sets at night.Most lightning flashes take place inside a cloud,and only a relative few can be seen jumping between two clouds or between earth and a cloud.But,with about 2000 thunderstorms taking place above the earth every minute of the day and night,there’s enough activity to produce about 100 lightning strikes on earth every second.Parents can use thunder and lightning to help their children learn more about the world around them.When children understand that the light oflightning flashing reaches their eyes almost at the same moment,but the sound of the thunder takes about 5 seconds to travel just one mile,theycan begin to time the interval(间隔)between the flash and the crash to learn how close they were to the actual spark(闪光).51.According to the author,in the area of the Central Valley,_____.A.rains usually come without thunder and lightningB.it is usually dry in AprilC.children pay no attention to the two natural wondersD.parents are not interested in thunder and lightning52.We believe that lightning is a downward motion because _____.A.we were taught so by our sense of vision B.we are taken in by our sense of visionC.it is a common natural sight D.it is a truth proved by science53.What is true about lightning according to the passage_____A.Only a small number of lightning flashes occur on earth.B.Lightning travels 5 times faster than thunder.C.Lightning flashes usually jump from one cloud to another.D.There are far more lightning strikes occurring on earth than we can imagine.54.The underlined word“activity”is most closely related to the word(s)_____.A.“cloud”B.“lightning strikes” C.“lightning flashes”D.“thunderstorms”55.It can be concluded from passage that _____.A.we should not believe what we see or hearB.things moving downward are more noticeableC.people often have wrong ideas about ordinary phenomena(现象)D.adults are not as good as children in observing certain natural phenomenaPassage 2Martin, Sandy, Maria, Jane, Michael正从报纸(de)分类广告中寻求自己需要(de)信息,你可以从56-60题中获知他们各自(de)需要.阅读下面五则广告,然后选出符合各人要求(de)广告.56.

He has proved that everyone hasa daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic (精力充沛) is when your cycle ofbody temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes before noon. For othersit comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leadsto such familiar sayings as: “Get up, John You’re late for work again” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kelantan believes. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. When you get up, sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.66. According to the new findings of Dr. Kelantan, if a person finds getting upearly a problem, most probably __________________.A. he is a lazy personB. he refuses to follow his own energy cycleC. he is not sure when his energy is lowD. he is at his energy peak in the afternoon or evening67. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passageA. Unawareness of energy cycles.B. Familiar saying.C. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.D. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.68. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, heshould _________.A. change his energy cycleB. overcome his lazinessC. get up earlier than usualD. go to bed earlier69. You are advised to act slowly when you rise in the morning because it will____________.A. help to keep your energy for the day’s workB. help you to control your mood early in the dayC. enable you to concentrate on your routine workD. keep your energy cycle under control all day70. Which of the following statements is NOT trueA. Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.B. Dr. Kelantan explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.C. Habit helps one adapt to his own energy cycle.D. Children have energy cycles, too.四、词组练习:110=10分71对社会是有价值(de)72.先进工业国73.大学学位74.妻子(de)义务75.据报道76.办公大楼77最繁忙(de)街道78. 电线79.黄头发、黑眼珠(de)80. 两到三次之后五、完成下列句子:210=20分81.
