I was driving with my friend on the way home after a trip to Wal-Mart and it was completely unexpected. My friend and I began the night by going out to eat and after that we had nothing to do, so we went to Wal-Mart. As we were leaving the parking-lot, we encountered a stop sign and that was where the collision(碰撞)happened.As we approached the sign, I didn’t see the green truck coming from the left, which was pulling out of the gas station. So all of a sudden, we felt the crash and heard the “boom”. We had hit the back tyre of the truck. My friend and I looked at each other, shocked; neither of us knew what to do.After we realized what had just happened, the truck we hit started to drive over to the parking lot so we followed. We parked next to the truck and got out of the car. To make the situation worse, it was raining hard, so we were wet all over. We were about to walk over to the driver when he started shouting at us and I felt so bad but I didn’t know what to say to him; I felt like crying.When I got home, I was expecting to be yelled at or even get my car away, but it was just the opposite. My parents just talked to me calmly and said that they were so glad I was okay and that it was not a big accident. They told me to be more careful next time and this was something to learn from. This experience has helped me realize that they are right and I will be more cautious next time, especially with others in my car.56.

Any trip to Sydney is an adventure and with some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, this city has so much to offer. Sydney is so large an area that choosing a hotel is something you need to do very carefully. Public transport is good, but it can be slow and being close to where you want to be is probably the most important factor.The first and most obvious choice is hotels around Circular Quay. Circular Quay is the heart of the city and one of the major interchanges where trains, buses and ferries meet. It’s also where Sydney’s two most famous landmarks are located—Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbor Bridge. This area is active and offers truly some of the best views you will ever get from a hotel room.Hotels further in the city are much more suited to business travelers and they are usually less expensive. Darling Harbor is a great choice as it mixes a great view with being right in the centre of the city. Darling Harbor has hundreds of pubs, clubs and restaurants along the water’s edge.If you don’t feel like dealing with the hustle and bustle of the city and are looking for something a bit quieter, why not head out to the Northern Beaches. It’s only a short ferry ride over to Manly where you can find two major hotels on the beach front with a number of smaller boutiques (精品店).61.What made Sydney famous as a lively and modern city in the world?A.Its traditional cultureB. Its beaches and hotelsC. The traffic systemD. The 2000 Olympics62. We may know from the passage that .A. traveling to Sydney is dangerousB. Sydney’s public transport is fastC. hotels in Manly are cheapest in Sydney.D. you can enjoy good views in Circular Quay.63. If you want to live in a quiet hotel and buy some fashionable clothes or expensive gifts, you should choose one in .A. Circular QuayB. Darling HarborC. ManlyD. Sydney Harbor Bridge64. The underlined part “hustle and bustle” in the last paragraph may refer to .A. hot climateB. serious pollution.C. busy and noisy activityD. slow-moving traffic.65. The passage is mainly to .A. advertise the hotels in SydneyB. tell us how to choose a suitable hotel in SydneyC. show that Sydney is truly a heaven on earthD. describe Sydney after the 2000 OlympicsCNew York has long been known as the city that never sleeps, but the business people in Tokyo get less time in bed than those in New York, and also in Paris, Stockholm and Shanghai.According to a survey of five cities, the business people in Tokyo during weekdays sleep just under 6 hour on average. The business people in Shanghai sleep the longest, seven hours and 28 minutes. Those in New York sleep six hours and 35 minutes, the second shortest after Tokyo.“I think business people in Tokyo may just be too busy,” said a spokeswoman of the survey. Many Japanese business people are forced into long days by hours of overtime followed by afterhours(业余时间)drinking sessions(聚会)and then a long commute(上下班交通)home, although the survey found that commutes in New York were about equally long. Tokyo trains in both mornings and evenings are full of sleepy commuters. Some even manage to nap standing up as they hold on to overhead rails.“In Shanghai, people simply seem to go to sleep earlier. Everyone in the five cities of the survey gets up around the same time in the mornings, between 6:30 and 7:00,”said the spokeswoman. “In Tokyo, people seem to do things after they get home as well, like playing computer games. They don’t sleep until after midnight.”Not surprisingly, when asked what was the most important in their lives, Japanese gave “sleep” the top ranking—the same as their Parisian peers, who nevertheless got nearly seven hours of sleep on weekdays. By contrast, both New Yorkers and Shanghai residents said “time with their family” came first.66. According to the survey, the business people in Shanghai sleep about .A. 5 hoursB. 6.5 hoursC. 7.5 hoursD. 8 hours67. The business people spend about the same time on the road in .A. Tokyo and ShanghaiB. Paris and StockholmC. Paris and ShanghaiD. Tokyo and New York68. What do business people from the five cities have in common?A. They are all too busyB. They live a life of leisureC. They get up around the same timeD. They spend a long time on commute69. One reason why people in Tokyo lack sleep is that .A. they go to bed too lateB. they usually get up too earlyC. they often drink and danceD. they like working on computers70. In which column of a newspaper could we probably find this passage?A. TravelB. PeopleC. SportsD. EducationPART FOUR WRITING (45 marks)SECTION A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.Studies show that eating dinner together at least 3 or 4 times a week benefits families in many ways.First of all, eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier relationships. Children receive better grades at school and are better adjusted as teens and adults, and the entire family enjoys a healthier diet. For many families, eating dinner together proves to be a good and effective way to reduce the risk of youth rates of addiction and depression, and helps to keep children healthy. It is also a great time to share the events of the day and discuss news and ideas.During dinner time, parents have a good opportunity to find out more about their children. When parents have all information they can better direct their kids toward positive activities and behavior in life and they will also be more able to help their children stay away from alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs.However, family researchers say that the benefits of family dinners can by no means be considered automatic. Parents can sit down to dinner with their kids every day and achieve nothing. No family dinner can help if there is too much arguing going on, if there is no meaningful conversation or, even worse, if there is just plain silence during the meal.Family dinners are a great way for parents to set and discuss certain rules and be good role models to their children. The benefits of eating together last much longer than many people might think, especially if your family mealtime becomes a regular activity.Title: 71. ______I. 72. ______:●Achieve open communication●Build 73. ______ relationships among families●Provide parents 74. ______ to know about their children●Help kids 75. ______ alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs●A time to be good 76. ______ to childrenII.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.Working after school and at the weekend can be a very positive experience for a high school student. The only negative aspect I wonder is whether the job seriously affects the housework at home or grades at school. If it’s possible to work and still keep up with housework and keep the grades up, I don’t see any downside.The obvious advantage of an after-school job is the extra money that it provides. A student can buy things that she or he couldn’t afford before. More than this, it is possible to learn how to deal with money and learn the value of money by earning it yourself. Besides, an after-school job can develop a sense of responsibility in a kid. You may receive no punishment for being a little careless with your housework at home; however, when someone is paying you to do something, you’d better do a good job.As a kid, I did babysitting and delivered newspapers. I learned to be responsible and to do a good job for the pay. In high school, I went to work for a shoe repair shop and polished shoes there. I made some mistakes but ended up being pretty good at my job. I’ve learned that it doesn’t matter if your job is modest or high level. If you take it seriously and do a good job, there is still a great sense of accomplishment.81. Who does the writer advise to take an after-school job?

It was hard to get up for that class, but every morning I would 26 the cold winds and went to the lecture.The professor for the class would step 27 into the room. He was terribly nervous about the class and always fixed his eyes on his book, never 28 us. I felt that I needed to do something to 29 the boredom, so I tried to find something in his lecture to ask him, forcing me to pay attention rather than letting my eyes close. The first time I raised my hand, he was surprised but was obviously 30 to have a question to answer. In fact, his answers were always __31__.I continued to do this every day. The professor seemed to become a bit more 32 and some students even joined in. In this way, I learned quite a lot and realized the professor was indeed a(n)__33__ in his field.On the last day of class we gathered our books and headed out. The professor stepped directly in front of me, with obvious 34 , putting out his hand. He said, "__35__ you for making my class so interesting, "shaking my hand and smiling. I was so __36__.To me, it had been a pleasant way to __37__ the time in his lesson. I had no idea that my __38__ had any effect on him or the others at all.That __39__ has stayed with me for 30 years, I don't recall the facts I learned in his class, but I'll never forget the professor who taught me a lesson about the __40__ of acts of kindness, intended or not.()26.

But unlike human, plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet away-straight up. A decade ago,adopting the infrared(红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide(杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don't have pest problems.Even better, Paley's Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were transformed into a colour-coded map showing where plants were running "fevers". Farmers could then spot-spray（点喷）, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paley's company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find. But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation.Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. "This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States, " says George Oerther of Texas A & M. Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade.But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.41. Plants will send out an increased amount of heat when they are________.A. sprayed with pesticidesB. in poor physical conditionC. facing an infrared scannerD. exposed to excessive sun rays42. In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to________.A. estimate the damage to the cropsB. measure the size of the affected areaC. find the exact position of the problem areaD. draw a color-coded map43. Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by________.A. discovering crop problems at an early stageB. consulting infrared scanning expertsC. transforming poisoned rainD. making use of spot-spraying44. The use of infrared scanning technology in agriculture met with some difficulties in ______.A. the lack of financial supportB. its high costC. the lack of official supportD. its failure to help increase production45. Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of _____.A. the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produceB. the forceful promotion by the Department of AgricultureC. growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on cropsD. full support from agricultural expertsBWhen my daughter was five, we gave her a piano as her birthday gift. With great excitement, she began learning piano under the teacher's guidance. Nevertheless, when she was no longer curious about it, she became sick of it. After all, it is a tough job to learn piano, not to mention the daily routine of practice. Therefore, every time, I had to urge her again and again, either to force or offer her some profits for the practice. She always felt uncomfortable sitting on that school, so she would either scratch her nose or ears, or hide in the bathroom for quite a long time.Her first teacher left and moved somewhere else. My friend introduced me to an American teacher. The American teacher's way of teaching was completely American style. After practicing, she would give my daughter some good comments on the excellent part (despite it being just a small one), and then point out what should be improved. What's more, every time she came, instead of beginning the lesson right away, she would first play some music. She said, “To learn playing the piano, you should learn not only the skills of playing, but more importantly, to feel the music and love it.”To my surprise, my daughter gradually became fond of piano lessons. Sometimes she even would like to show off a little bit in class after her skill had reached a certain level. Her confidence and sense of achievement were enhanced (=increased) with the appreciation and acknowledgement from her teachers and classmates.Surprisingly, my daughter said to me one day, “Morn, I was lucky because you didn't give up my piano lessons. Learning piano is like climbing a mountain. You'll feel tired when you are on the way. When you look down from where you are, you will realize that you have been making progress.But if you stop, you will never take one more step.” Hearing these inspiring words, I could not hold my tears, thinking that is the very thing I want to teach her, something that is more important than learning piano.46. The daughter was not curious about piano when she ____________。

That, at least, is what it promised us. The difficulty is that it did not take the hum an mind into account. The reality is that we cannot keep relation ships with more than a limited number of people. No matter ho w hard the Internet tries to put you in communication, its best ef forts will be defeated by your mind.The problem is twofold（双重的）. First, there is a limit on the number of people we can hold in mind and have a meaningful relationship with. That number i s about 150 and is set by the size of our brain. Second, the qual ity of your relationships depends on the amount of time you inv est in then. We invest a lot in a small number of people and the n distribute what’s left among as many others as we can. The p roblem is that if we invest little time in a person, our engagemen t with that person will decline until eventually it dies into “someo ne I once knew”.This is not, of course, to say that the Internet doesn’t serve a so cially valuable function. Of course it does. But the question is n ot that it allows you to increase the size of your social circle to i nclude the rest of the world, but that you can keep your relation ships with your existing friends going even though you have to move to the other side of the world.In one sense, that’s a good thing. But it also has a disadvantag e. If you continue to invest in your old friends even though you c an no longer see them, then certainly you aren’t using your time to make new friends where you now live. And I suspect that pr obably isn’t the best use of your time. Meaningful relationships are about being able to communicate with each other, face to fa ce. The Internet will slow down the rate with which relationshipsend, but it won’t stop that happening eventually.36．The number of friends we can keep relationships with is de cided by__________.A. the InternetB. the time we haveC. the place we liveD. th e mind37．The underlined word “engagement” in the second paragrap h probably means “__________”.A. appointmentB. connectionC. interviewD. agreement 38．The author holds the view that___________.A. the Internet helps to keep in touch with friends far awayB. the Internet determines the quality of social relationshipsC. the Internet greatly increases the size of social circlesD. the Internet is of no value in social communication 39．What will the author encourage us to do?A. To keep in touch with old friends when we have moved away .B. To chat with friends often on the Internet.C. To make more new friends face to face.D. To stop using the Internet to make new friends.40．What is the author’s attitude towards the use of the Interne t to strengthen relationships?A. He thinks it uselessB. He is hopeful of it.C. He approves of it.D. He doubts it.A woman named Emily renewing her driver’s license at the ’s o ffice was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertai n how to classify herself.“What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a …”“Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “I’m a mother.”“We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation…‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.One day I found myself in the same situation. The clerk was ob viously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sou nding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked.The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my state ment was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire. “Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doe sn’t), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indo ors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often wor k 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challen ging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction r ather than just money.”There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (受鼓舞) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assis tants---ages 13, 7, and 3.Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month ol d baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”Motherhood…What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.41．What can we infer from the conversation between the wom an and the recorder at the beginning of the passage?A. The recorder was impatient and rude.B. The woman felt ashamed to admit what her job was.C. The author was upset about the situation that mothers faced.D. Motherhood was not recognized and respected as a job by s ociety.42．How did the female clerk feel at first when the author told h er occupation?A. curiousB. indifferentC. puzzledD. interested43．Why did the woman clerk show more respect for the author ?A. Because the author cared little about rewards.B. Because she thought the author did admirable work.C. Because she admired the author’s research work in the lab.D. Because the writer did something she had little knowledge of .44．What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?A. To show how you describe your job affects your feelings tow ard it.B. To argue that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect.C. To show that the author had a greater job than Emily.D. To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.To help make the most of your experience at Auckland Zoo we suggest:Plan Your Day:Plan your day to learn more about your favorite zoo animals.

It was my moth er’s idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and d ecided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of k eeping up with the competition.With my load of magazines I headed toward . The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville an d Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it wassupper time, I walked back home.“How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“None.”“Where did you go?”“The corner of and Union Avenues.”“What did you do?”“Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday E vening Post.”“You just stood there?”“Didn’t sell a single one.”“My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “Well,I’ve decided to take the Post.” I hande d him a copy and he paid me a nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matte r how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Po st in the home.One day, I told my mother I’d changed my mind. I didn’t want to make a success in the magazine business.“If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “y ou’ll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I shoul d start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no , she would scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my father’s plain work man’s life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a s uccessful journalist as me would go back to her husband’s peo ple for true life and love.48．Why did the boy start his job young?A．He wanted to be famous in the future B．The job was quite easy for him.C．His mother had high hopes for him.

Parents using facetoface buggies were twice as likel y to talk to their children while the babies’ heart rates fell and th ey were twice as likely to fall asleep，showing that they were feeling relaxed and safe.In addition，only one baby out of the 20 studied laughed while sitting in an awayfacing buggy.“Our data(数据) suggests that for many babies today，life in a buggy is emotionally impoverished and possibly stressf ul. Stressed babies grow into anxious adults，” said Dr Suzann e Zeedyk，Developmental Psychologist at Scotland’s Dundee University w ho carried out the research.The study，which was published by National Literacy Trust as part of its “T alk To Your Baby” campaign，found that 62 percent of all children observed travelled in awayf acing buggies.Zeedyk said it would have a negative effect on babies’ develop ment if they spent a long time in awayfacing buggies，which would be bad to their ability to communicate with their pa rent at a time when their brain was developing rapidly.Laura Barbour of the Sutton Trust，a social mobility charity which funded the research，said buggy manufacturers(制造商) should look closely at the findings.53．Using awayfacing buggies may________.A．benefit both the babies and their parentsB．affect babies’ language ability permanentlyC．help babies communicate with their parentsD．have positive effect on babies’ development54．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Parents may talk twice with the babies in awayfacing buggie s.B．The study suggests children feel relaxed and safe in buggie s.C．The samples (案例)of the study were 20 babies wheeled in buggies.D．One of the 20 babies was twice as likely to fall asleep in bu ggies.55．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．Best for Kids to Face Parents in BuggyB．Best for Kids to Communicate with ParentsC．Stressed Babies Grow into Anxious AdultsD．Buggy Manufacturers Care about the FindingThe weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks coolmay not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy dri nks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your healt h. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks h ave lots of caffeine(咖啡碱)in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes s ay their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awa ke. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your h eart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Comm ittee(IOC) has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have s omething to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even c ause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be di scouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them. 56．Many people like drinking energy drinks because of the foll owing EXCEPT that ______.A. they have beautiful colors and cool namesB. they have lots of caffeineC. they can keep them awake and better at sportsD. they are said to be helpful to health57．The main reason for people not to drink too much energy d rinks is that they may cause ______.A. heart problemsB. nervousnessC. sleeping difficultyD. possible health dangers58．The underlined word “discouraged” can be replaced(替换) with ______.A. encouragedB. stoppedC. helpedD. disliked 59．From the passage we can know that ______.A.advertisements are important in getting people to buy energy drinksB.energy drinks are helpful to teenagers’ studyC.sports players need to drink a lot of energy drinksD.energy drinks are especially aimed at teenagers60．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? ______A.

That, at least, is what it promised us. The difficu lty is that it did not take the human mind into account. The reality is that we cannot keep relation ships with more than a limited number of people. No matter how hard the Internet tries to put yo u in communication, its best efforts will be defeated by your mind.The problem is twofold（双重的）. First, there is a limit on the number of people we can hold in mind and have a meaningful relationship with. That number is about 150 and is set by the size of our brain. Second, the quali ty of your relationships depends on the amount of time you invest in then. We invest a lot in a s mall number of people and then distribute what’s left among as many others as we can. The pro blem is that if we invest little time in a person, our engagement with that person will decline until eventually it dies into “someone I once knew”.This is not, of course, to say that the Internet doesn’t serve a socially valuable function. Of cour se it does. But the question is not that it allows you to increase the size of your social circle to in clude the rest of the world, but that you can keep your relationships with your existing friends go ing even though you have to move to the other side of the world.In one sense, that’s a good thing. But it also has a disadvantage. If you continue to invest in you r old friends even though you can no longer see them, then certainly you aren’t using your time t o make new friends where you now live. And I suspect that probably isn’t the best use of your ti me. Meaningful relationships are about being able to communicate with each other, face to face . The Internet will slow down the rate with which relationships end, but it won’t stop that happeni ng eventually.36．The number of friends we can keep relationships with is decided by__________.A. the InternetB. the time we haveC. the place we liveD. the mind37．The underlined word “engagement” in the second paragraph probably means “__________”.A. appointmentB. connectionC. interviewD. agreement38．The author holds the view that___________.A. the Internet helps to keep in touch with friends far awayB. the Internet determines the quality of social relationshipsC. the Internet greatly increases the size of social circlesD. the Internet is of no value in social communication39．What will the author encourage us to do?A. To keep in touch with old friends when we have moved away.B. To chat with friends often on the Internet.C. To make more new friends face to face.D. To stop using the Internet to make new friends.。

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.in 42 facial expressions – and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly (均匀地) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners 43 their attention on the eyes.“We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions,” Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and 44 the mouth.”According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human 45 of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to 46 convey emotion in a cross-cultural situation.The researchers studied cultural differences in the 47 of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western people and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of 48 faces and put them into categories: happy, sad,surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral (中立的). They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made 49 more errors than did Westerners. “The cu ltural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said. “Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.”In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, 50 how cultural factors have differed in these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.Ⅲ. Reading Comprehension (35%)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.Do you think that a universal language will emerge within the next century? Englishis 51 the lingua franca in many parts of the world, and is the best language currently to know 52 business and science, 53 I don’t think English will 54 become a universal language. I think that if a language becomes the world language, it should be an artificial one. 55 , it might seem to many as an effort to 56 a certain cultural group. The 57 with a universal language is how to 58 it, and how to get the governments of the world to agree 59 its implementation.If this were to happen, the international language would be the 60 second language of all countries, and legally it would still play second fiddle to the current language of that country. It could allow different tribes in Africa to communicate, or 61 communication between small villages in India that each speaks different languages. Not to 62 it would mean that one would only have to learn two languages no matter 63 in the world he travels.What 64 specifics—what writing 65 should it use? Where should its words come from? Should the language be highly inflected or very analytical? And furthermore, how will the language be established?51.A. preciously B. uncertainly C. indefinitely D.currently52.A. for B. under C. over D. in53.A. so B. moreover C. but D. therefore54.A. even B. hardly C. still D. ever55.A. Otherwise B. Meanwhile C. Nevertheless D. So56.A. promote B. exceed C. conduct D. predict57.A. problem B. impact C. benefit D. result58.A. set B. build C. rank D. publish59.A. for B. about C. in D. on60.A. normal B. official C. legally D. suddenly61.A. cause B. enable C. make D. persuade62.A. tell B. mention C. say D. speak63.A. how B. what C. where D. whether64.A. about B. for C. if D. kind of65.A. organization B. change C. management D. systemSection BDirections: Read the following four passages. 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)Below is adapted from an English dictionary. Use the dictionary to answer the following questions.cut a striking figure in his dinnerexpect.jacket. put a figure on sth.: tosay the exact price or number ofsth.66.—She was coming late again for the work.—________!

John is fond of animals and raises a rabbit as a pet.B. In some countries, bamboo can be used to build houses.C. We all regard Mr. Smith as an important figure in our company.D. I didn’t really mean my partner was a snake.(B)It takes two to duet (二重唱), and one question for scientists is how these coordinated (协调的) performances arise —in birds. Are they the result of cooperation, a way in which one pair signals to others that they’ve got it together? Or are they the result of conflict, evolving to avoid one partner’s song interfering with the other’s?A study of duetting in Peruvian warbling antbirds(蚁鸟) suggests that it might be a little of both, and that context is everything. Joseph A. Tobias and Nathalie Seddon of the University of Oxford show in Current Biology that sexual conflict can cause the female of a pair that normally cooperates to “jam” the male’s song by singing over it.The researchers exposed antbird pairs to recorded songs of other antbirds and monitored the songs the pairs produced. In one experiment, they played the songs of an intruding pair. In this case, the resident pair “both are likely to lose their territory, so both should cooperate,” Dr. Tobias said. And they do. They produce a coordinated duet that in effect tells the intruders to keep away.But when the researchers played the song of a single female, the pair behaved differently. “You’d expect the resident female to be highly motivated to defend her position in the partnership,” Dr. Tobias said. And that’s what occurs. Th e male sings its heart out, flirting(调情) with the single female, and the female of the pair does its best to interfere with the song by singing over it, apparently to make her mate less attractive to the other female.“It’s clear that the male doesn’t like what she’s doing,” Dr. Tobias said. The behavior “breaks up what is otherwise a very cooperative situation into a more complicated signal,” he added.It’s the first evidence of this kind of signal jamming among pairs, Dr. Tobiassaid.And in that it leads the male to alter its song to avoid the female’s interfering notes, it shows that this kind of conflict could, over a long period, drive the evolution of coordinated song.69.What is the key factor of antbirds’ duet?A. Their cooperation.B. Their conflict.C. The context.D. Their instinct.70.How did the researchers conduct the experiment?A. They put the antbird pairs back to nature and observe them.B. They played different recorded songs of other antbirds.C. They put an antbird to the other’s territory and observed.D. They played the songs of an intruding pair.71.Why did the female bird sing according to Paragraph 4?A. It wanted to show its singing talent to the partner.B. It aimed at keeping the partnership with the male.C. It wanted to frighten the other females.D. It wanted to make her mate more attractive.72.Which of the following is the topic of this passage?A. The special phenomenon about birds pairs.B. The conflict of bird pairs.C. The cooperation of bird pairs.D. The piece of music for bird pairs.(C)The composer Wolfgan g Amadeus Mozart’s remarkable musical talent was apparent even before most children can sing a simple nursery rhyme. Wolfgang’s older sister Maria Anna (who the family called Nannerl) was learning the clavier, an early keyboard instrument, when her three-year-old brother took an interest in playing. As Nannerl later recalled, Wolfgang “often spent much time at the clavier picking out thirds (三度音), which he was always striking, and his pleasure showed that it sounded good.” Their father Leopold, an assistant concertmaster at the Salzburg Court, recognized his children’s unique gifts and soon devoted himself to their musical education.Born in Salzburg, Austria, on January 27, 1756, Wolfgang had composed his first original work by age five. Leopold planned to take Nannerl and Wolfgang on tour to play before the European courts. Their first venture was to nearby Munich where the children played for Maximillian III Joseph, elector of Bavaria. Leopold soon set his sights on the capital of the Hapsburg Empire, Vienna. On their way to Vienna, the family stopped in Linz, where Wolfgang gave his first public concert. By this time, Wolfgang was not only a skilled harpsichord player, but he had also mastered the violin. The audience at Linz was amazed by the six-year-old, and word of his genius soon traveled to Vienna. In a much attended concert, the Mozart children appeared at the Schonbrunn Palace on October 13, 1762. They completely attracted the emperor and empress.Following this success, Leopold received a lot of invitations for the children to play, for a fee. Leopold seized the opportunity and booked as many concerts aspossible at courts throughout Europe. A concert could last three hours, and the children played at least two per a day. Today, Leopold might be considered the worst kind of stage parent, but at the time, it was not uncommon for prodigies to make extensive concert tours. Even so, it was an exhausting schedule for a child who was just past the age of needing an afternoon nap.73.A good title for this passage would be ________.A. Classical Music in the Eighteenth Century: An Overview.B. Stage Parents: A Historical Point of View.C. Mozart: The Early Life of a Musical Genius.D. Mozart: The Short Career of a Musical Genius.74.What was the consequence of Wolf gang’s first public appearance?A. He attracted the emperor and empress of Hapsburg.B. Word of Wolfgang’s genius spread to the capital.C. Leopold set his sights on Vienna.D. Invitations for the miracle children to play poured in.75.Each of the following statements about Wolfgang Mozart is directly supported bythe passage except ________.A. Mozart’s father made full use of his children’s talentB. Maria Anna was also talented in musicC. Wolfgang’s childhood was devoted to his musical careerD. Wolfgang preferred the violin to other instruments76.The word “prodigies” in the last paragraph probably means “________”.A. unusually talented peopleB. strict parentsC. greatest composersD. generous people(D)Inaugural Address－John F. Kennedydelivered 20 January 1961We observe today not a victory of party, but a celebration of freedom—symbolizing an end, as well as a beginning—signifying renewal, as well as change. For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago.The world is very different now, for man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe–the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay anyprice, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to assure the survival and the success of liberty.This much we pledge—and more…In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility -- I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it. And the glow from that fire can truly light the world.And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.My fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us here the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth God's work must truly be our own.77.What should friends and foes know?A.That the United States is powerful.B.That a new generation of Americans are responsible for their government.C.That the United States is governed by liberals.D.That the rights of man come from the hand of God.78.What is Kennedy’s promise to the world?A. To support liberty.B. To abolish all forms of humanpoverty.C. To visit each country at least once.D. To support any friend.79.What should citizens of the world ask of America?A.How America can help them.B.If America plans to invade their country.C.What they can do for freedom.D.What they can do for America.80.Which of the following statement is NOT true according to the passage?A.Human beings have the power to put an end to all forms of poverty.B.We should remember we are the first revolution.C.Our nation has always been committed to human rights.D.We should assure the survival and the success of liberty.Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-ABIn order to present the best presentation and eliminate room for error, you need to keep in mind certain guidelines.

One cold night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco．There I was walking home around one o’clock the morning after a 1 practice at the theatre. With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart. I was having 2 handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about 3 both acting and San Francisco. I had 4 too much of city life. As I walked down the 5 streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began 6 both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few homeless people under blankets. About a block from my 7 , I heard a sound behind me. I 8 quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me 9 ，so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I 10 what the noise had been. It had been my wallet 11 to the sidewalk. Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk 12 for 15 minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found. Just as I was about to quit the 13 , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an 14 look in his eyes. “Is this what you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up a wallet. It was already 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I couldn’t get much sleep, but I had got mywallet back. I also had got back some 15 of city life. I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other. 1．A．comfortableB．serious．tiresomeD．fortunate ．A．comfort B．desireC．painD．trouble 3．A．setting upB．giving upC．holding upD．picking up ．A．expectedB．changedC．controlledD．possessed ．A．desertedB．crowdedC．D． 6．A．runningB．jumpingC．movingD．marching ．A．bankB．theatreC．apartmentD．office ．A．stoodB．walkedC．turnedD．left ．A．satisfiedB．confusedC．frightenedD．annoyed A．turn outB．figure outC．give outD．pull out A．belongingB．addingC．stickingD．falling skillfullyD．delightedly 13.

【全国名校】2012-2013学年广东广州六中高一下期期末学业水平测试英语卷学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________I、单选题(本大题共10小题，共10.0分)1.The World Wide Web is sometimes jokingly called the World Wide Wait because it ______ be very slow.A.shouldB.mustC.wouldD.can【答案】D【解析】试题分析：考查情态动词：句意：“互联网由于会很慢，所以有时被讥讽为world wide Wait ” ，should“应该”，和must“一定”推测语气强，will肯定，都排除。
Can用于肯定句，表推测，表示“有客观的可能”，选D。
考点：考查情态动词用法点评：情态动词表推测注意以下解题步骤：认真审题，结合所给出的语境，正确把握说话者的语气、情感、态度、观点等。
认真思考所给选项中情态动词的基本特征和用法，并结合语境推敲答案。
要注意把握时间概念。
2.John as well as the other children who ______ no parents ______ good care of in the village.A.has; is being takenB.has; are being takenC.have; is being takenD.have; are being taken【答案】C【解析】试题分析：考查主谓一致：句意：约翰和其他没有孩子的父母在村子里被照顾的很好。
who引导的是定语从句，根据句意，应该做children的定语，所以定语从句的谓语动词用复数have. 第二个横线处要填的是主句的谓语动词。
主句的主语是John as well as the other children,谓语和John一致，是单数，所以谓语动用单数。
这里要用被动语态。
所以选A。
考点：考查主谓一致点评：在英语中，句子的主语和谓语动词要保持数上的一致关系，叫主谓一致。
这种关系通常要遵循下面三条原则：1．语法一致原则。
句子的主语是单数形式，谓语动词要用单数形式；主语是复数形式，谓语动词用复数形式2．意义一致原则即谓语动词该用单数还是复数取决于主语所表达的内容在含义是单数意义还是复数意义。
3．邻近原则谓语动词该用单数还是复数形式，取决于最邻近它的名词、代词或其它词的数。
3.-- Learning a language is not easy. It takes time.--- I can’t agree more. __________. There is no short c ut.A.Make hay while the sun shinesB.All roads lead to RomeC.Rome wasn’t built in a dayD.Practice makes perfect【解析】试题分析：考查谚语：A. Make hay while the sun shines晒草要趁太阳好B. All roads lead to Rome条条大路通罗马，C. Rome wasn’t built in a day罗马非一日建成。
D. Practice makes perfect熟能生巧，句意：--语言学习不容易，需要时间。
--是的。
罗马非一日建成。
没有捷径。
选C。
考点：考查谚语点评：考查谚语的时候考查学生的平时的积累，和阅读量，如果不知道含义，也可以通过字面去猜。
做题时结合上下文做题。
4.It is helpful to put children in a situation _____ they can see themselves differently.A.thatB.whenC.whichD.where【答案】D【解析】试题分析：考查定语从句。
句意：把孩子放在可以让他们从不同角度看自己的形势中是有帮助的。
先行词是situation，指物，亦可指地点，定语从句中缺少地点状语地点状语，用关系副词where引导定语从句，选D。
考点：考查定语从句点评：定语从句的考查主要就是考查关系词的辨析，关系代词that, which, whose, whom, as，who在句中做主语，宾语，表语或者定语；where, why, when在句中做状语。
要分析句子成分，看缺少什么成分，就选用相应的关系词。
5.If you had got up early, you_____ the early bus.A.have caughtB.will have caughtC.would have caughtD.had caught【答案】C【解析】试题分析：考查if的虚拟条件句：句意：如果你早起的话，就可以赶上早班车了。
从句意可知是和过去相反的情况，从句用过去完成时，主句用would have done，选C。
考点：考查条件句的虚拟语气点评：if的虚拟语气非常重要，简要概括如下：1、表示与现在事实相反的情况，从句：If主语+过去时(Be动词用were)；主句：主语+should/would/could/might+do：2、表示与过去事实相反的情况，从句：If主语+had+done；主句：主语+should/would/could/might+have done3、表示对将来情况的主观推测，从句：①if+主语+were to do②if+主语+should+do ③if+主语+did（动词过去式）/were ；主句：主语+should/would/could/might+do6.Now that she is out of job, Lucy ______ going back to school, but she hasn’t decided yet.A.had consideredB.has been consideringC.consideredD.is going to consider【答案】B试题分析：考查时态：句意：因为Lucy失业了，所以她在考虑重返校园，但她现在还没决定。
根据题意说话者在说现在的情况，因此排除了A、C、D三项，B表示现在完成进行时，表示现在的事，进行时强调“考虑”这个动作的“未完性”，所以选B。
考点：考查时态点评：时态题的考查关键是抓住句子的上下文含义和句中的时间状语。
要根据时间状语来选择合适的时态，在平时的学习中要注意积累有关时态的用法和各种时态的特殊之处。
7.The manager demanded that the workers _______ extra hours to complete the task ahead of time.A.workB.were workingC.workedD.would work【答案】A【解析】试题分析：考查虚拟语气：句意：经理要求工人工作额外的时间来提前完成任务。
主语的谓语是demand +从句，demand后接宾语从句时，从句谓语一般要用虚拟语气，即＂should + 动词原形＂；should可以省略。
选A。
考点：考查虚拟语气点评：英语中有4——四个表示“要求”的词，require, ask ,tell, demand；3——三个表示“建议”的词，suggest, recommend, advice；2——两个表示“命令”的词，order,command ；1——一个表示“坚持”的词，insist。
他们后面接should+动词原形的虚拟语气。
Should 可以省略。
8.Even if they are on sale, these computers are equal in price to, if not more expensive than,________ at the other store.A.the othersB.othersC.the onesD.ones【答案】C【解析】试题分析：考查代词：句意：即使它们在促销，这些电脑的价格如果不比其他商店的高，也是一样的高。
本题中它代替computers；因特指，故用the ones，A. the others其他的，B. others其他，都不符合句意。
选C。
考点：考查代词用法点评：代词的词义辨析考查的较为细致：One 指代可数名词单数，表示泛指；其特质形式为the one。
It指代上文出现的同一事物；that指代可数名词单数，或者不可数名词，后面必须有定语修饰。
其复数形式为those，同样后面也应该有定语修饰。
9.When she saw her son liked reading, she did all she could ______ him.A.helpB.to helpC.helpingD.to helping【答案】B【解析】试题分析：考查不定式做目的状语：句意：当她看见儿子喜欢阅读，她极尽所能帮助他。
考点：考查不定式做目的状语点评：本题是易错题，句意理解是关键。
要把缺失的部分还原，找出省略成分，判断所需的成分。
动词不定式的基本用法：动词不定式能起名词、形容词和副词的作用，可在句中作主语、表语、宾语补足语、定语和状语用。
同时还要注意动词不定式的被动语态用法10.He had to _______ paying the bills because of a lack of money.A.put downB.put offC.put outD.put aside【答案】B【解析】试题分析：考查动词短语：A. put down放下，B. put off推迟，C. put out 扑灭，D. put aside 放置一边，储蓄，句意：因为缺钱他不得不推迟付账单。
选B。
考点：考查动词短语辨析点评：动词短语是高考常考内容。
可以按照以下方法学习：1.在每个部分找出自己最熟悉或者最理解的短语，并根据该短语助记总体意思；2.熟记动词本身所具有的全部意思；3.重点根据小品词在该项中的总体意思结合动词本身的意思，理解自己最不理解和不熟悉的短语4.脱离汉语，只看英语动词短语，并放到具体句子和场景中认识动词短语5.注意有些短语意义很接近, 这要结合例句和上下文掌握它们的用法。
