The ancient Olympics were held every four years between August 6 and September 19 duringa religious festival honoring Zeus (宙斯). The first modern Olympics were held inAthens, Greece, in 1896. The Olympic symbol consists of five interlaced rings of equal dimensions, representing the union of the five continents and the meeting of athletes from throughout the world at the Olympic Games. The Olympics truly took off as an international sporting event after 1924, when the 8th Olympic Games were held in Paris. Some 3,000 athletes from 44 nations competed that year, and for the first time the Games featured a closing ceremony. The Winter Olympics debuted (问世) that year, including such events as figure skating, ice hockey, bobsledding and the biathlon. Eighty years later, when the 2004 Summer Olympics returned to Athens for the first time in more than a century, nearly 11,000 athletes from 201 countries competed, breaking the then record of participating countries.有关古代奥林匹克运动会的最早文字记载可追溯至公元前776年。

) He is.2) She is.3) She is.4) She is.5) He is.Yes. Generally speaking, these sports are popular among college students, though they are not as popular as basketball and soccer.• Not all of these sports are popular among college students. As far as I know, swimming and tennis are more popular among college students than the other three sports.Reference:1. I like jogging and playing tennis. When I jog, I listen to music or English. SoI don't feel bored and I can learn something while exercising. I also like playing tennis because it is a very exciting sport and it is fun playing with friends.2. • I don't do sports every day, but I try to exercise regularly. On weekdays, I'm too busy with my classes and homework, so I can only do sports occasionally. But on weekends I always manage to spend as much time as I can playing table tennis, going hiking, or doing yoga.• I spend about half an hour doing exercise every morning. Usually, I run on the sports field on campus. But if it rains, I do push-ups (俯卧撑) and sit-ups (仰卧起坐) in my dorm. If I have time, I play soccer or basketball in the afternoon with my classmates.3. Yes, I think so. Playing sports offers many obvious benefits. Playing sports is good to our health and good health is important for success at college. It also helps cultivate cooperation and teamwork. Besides, playing sports is very good for the development of our social skills, for sports teach us how to communicate and cooperate with people.Reference:1. Because the Sydney-to-Melbourne race is 875 kilometers long and it is a harsh test of endurance for the world's top athletes.2. Cliff Young was a toothless 61-year-old farmer; he was wearing rubber boots, and was much older than the other runners.3. Other athletes neither believed it nor treated Cliff Young with respect.4. Because Cliff Young didn't run properly. He had the strangest running style and appeared to shuffle.5.When people found that Cliff Young ran through the entire night without sleeping and when it seemed to them that he intended to keep running until he reached the finish line or fell ill or was injured.6. When he was running, Cliff Young imagined he was gathering his sheep and trying to outrun a storm.7. Cliff Young gave all the prize money to five other runners. He didn't keep a single cent for himself.8. Cliff Young is a brilliant example showing that ordinary people also have the inherent quality to achieve great results.Reference:1. I think teamwork, fair play and honesty, and excellence in performance best characterize the spirit of sports.• Teamwork: Individuals can be strong on their own, but they ca n be much stronger in a team. You can't win alone in a team game.• Fair play and honesty: Respect the rules of the game. Be honest. Never cheat even though you know you won't get caught.• Excellence in performance: Always try your best. Show your efforts and best performance.2. By playing sports, people can cultivate honesty, determination, and mutual respect.• Honesty: You will learn that having the sense of fair play and observing moral principles are essential in playing sports.• Determination: Be r eady to face difficulties or frustrations and never give up. Ultimately, this could be the deciding factor when it comes to winning or losing. • Mutual respect: It is compulsory to play by the rules. You will learn to respect your opponents, fellow players, referees, and fans.3.No, winning isn't the most important thing in sports. Winning is good, but there is much more about playing sports than winning. Playing sports brings about many benefits, the most important of which is to cultivate the spirit of sports. The spirit of sports is best reflected in the Olympic Creed, which reads: "The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well."4. I think it means that a true champion has great confidence and determination that we should not take lightly. A true champion knows one must push his limits of endurance or strength or skill to achieve victory. A true champion never gives up.5. The story of Cliff Young is extraordinary and inspirational, from which I have learned a great deal. I have learned that we should pursue our dreams regardless of what other people have to say. An ordinary person can become a hero, and wonderful things do happen when we are determined and committed. Most important of all, we should believe in ourselves!1. Theconference which I attend every year is going to be held in London in January next year.2. According to the terms of your, you must give three months' notice if you intend to leave this company.3. We were honored that so many people ofand talent were present to discuss the issues.4. The local government has been providingsupport to them, without which they couldn't have been so successful.5.

Shops try to meet the DIY (do-it-yourself) fashion by offering consumers parts and hardware which they canat home.8. I wonder how she willto the news if I tell her she is not going to get a raise this year.9. It wasthat the professor's lecture failed to impress the students as some of them had left before it was over.10. We all admitted that the trip was worthwhile after we saw a(n)palace and a fantastic museum.1. He argues that the designer of this teaching plan makes a falsethat all learners are at the same level.2. All the tourists wereby the magnificent scenery along the coastline.3. In some parts of the world, the populationin the past two decades led to the lack of food and health care.4. This hospital lacked the mostfacilities like X-ray machines and operating rooms.5.

In that instant, Cliff Young became a beloved national hero.In 1564, William Shakespeare, the great poet and playwright (剧作家), was born in England. As a boy, he attended a local grammar school in his hometown. At the age of 18 he married Anne Hathaway, and they had three children. Between 1585 and 1592, he developed a successful career in London. By 1592 several of his plays were on the London stage and he had become well-known by acting and writing plays. He appeared to have retired from the theater and returned to his hometown around 1613. In 1616, at the age of 52, he passed away.有关古代奥林匹克运动会的最早文字记载可追溯至公元前776年。

Part II Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: Read the following passages carefully and do the multiple-choice questions.Passage AA boy between the ages of 6 and 14 still admires his mother and has plenty to learn from her.But his interests are changing --- he is becoming more interested in what men have to offer.A boy knows he is turning into a man. He has to learn from a man to complete his development.The father's job is to step in over time. If there is no father around, then the child dependsmore on finding other men --- at school, for example. Yet men are leaving teaching, especiallyB. By aircraft.D. By rocket.8. A. In 1960. B. In 1963.C. In 1961.D. In 1962.9. A. Three times.B. Five times. 7. D. Once.in primary schools. This is a problem.They insisted, too, that they needed lots of extra support. Throughout primary school years and into high school, boys should spend a lot of time with their fathers and mothers, getting their help, learning how to do things and enjoying their company.With regard to feelings, at this stage the father is more important. The boy is ready to learn from his father and listens to what he has to say. Often he will take more notice of his father. It's enough to drive a mother wild!Now is a good time for a father to do "little" things: playing in the yard on summer evenings, going for walks, telling stories about life, telling him about his own youth, working on hobbies or sports together for the enjoyment of doing it. This is the time when good memories are laid down that will be healthy to your son, and you, for years to come.Although every boy is different, it's common for boys at this age to get a little argumentative ( 好争论的), restless and moody(闹情绪) . It's not that they are turning bad -just that they are being born into a new self and birth always means struggle.I believe this is the age when we fail teenagers the most. In our society all we offer those in the middle teens is "more of the same": more school. So it's little wonder that problems arise.11. According to the passage a boy needs the help of _______ to develop well.A) his mother only B) his father onlyC) neither his mother nor his father D) both his mother and father12. One problem for a boy's development is that ______ .A) there are fewer men teaching in primary schoolsB) there are fewer women teaching in primary schoolsC) the boy's interests are changingD) the boy wants to act as a man13. The good time for a father to have an influence on his son is ______ .A) when the boy is 14 B) when the boy is at primary schoolC) from about age 6 to the 14th birthday D) since the boy was born14. By the middle teens boys argue often with their parents. This means _______ .A) they are turning badB) they are turning goodC) they are being born into a new selfD) they are rebelling against their parents15. The main idea of this passage is that ______ .A) fathers play an equal role in raising boysB) mothers should feel comfortable when their sons' interests are changing.C) without fathers mothers can raise good menD) fathers should stay with their sons as much as possiblePassage BYukio is a twenty-four year old Japanese businessman. A few months ago, his companysent him to work at its New York City office for half a year. This was his first experience living in the United States.Yukio thought New York City was very exciting, but he also found it very strange. It was difficult for him to get used to it. He found it strange to be with people from so many different races. He sometimes found American people very direct, open and honest though at the same he felt curious about them. He wished he could become friends with some Americans, but he wasn't sure how to get along with them. Most of the time, he felt very lonely and missed Japan.But soon some sunshine came into his life. A new clerk came to work in his office part-time. She was American, as were most of the clerks in his office. Her name was Cindy. She was very clever, friendly and good-looking. Cindy was also a student studying business. Cindy and Yukio got along very well. They talked together whenever possible. Cindy told Yukio her dreams of having a successful business. She said she was not really interested in getting married or having children. She wanted to use all of her energy for business. Yukio found Cindy very interesting and very different from the women he knew before. In a similar way, Cindy found Yukio unique among all the men that she knew. Soon the two fell in love and they were both very happy.But now it is almost time for Yukio to return to Japan. Yukio wants Cindy to return to Japan with him and marry him. But Cindydoesn't speak any Japanese. She fears that Yukio wants her to become an ordinary wife and have children right away. Cindy wants Yukio to stay in New York City.They feel very bad, not knowing what they should do. Should they stay in New York? Should they go to Japan? Sometimes they think they should separate, but they also feel they cannot live without each other.16. A few months ago, Yukio _________ .A) was sent to New York City by his companyB) went to New York City for a meetingC) was told to open a new office for his company in New York CityD) met his former girlfriend Cindy in New York City17.

Cindy was not really interested in getting married, because _______ .A) Yukio didn't want to stay in New York CityB) Cindy doesn't speak any JapaneseC) Yukio and Cindy didn't get along well sometimesD) Cindy wanted a successful business19. According to your opinion based on the reading passage, which of the following statements is true?A) Yukio thought people in New York were the same as people in Japan.B) Cindy was Yukio's first American girlfriendC) Cindy had many other Japanese boyfriends before YukioD) Yukio spoke very little English20. The main idea of the passage is: _______ .A) There can be difficulties in falling in love with a person from another cultureB) American people and Japanese people cannot understand each otherC) A man misses his countryD) A businessman and his clerk often fall in love with each otherPassage CThe earth is not the only body that travels around the sun. With it are eight other planets (行星), fellow members of the sun's family.Two of them are nearer while the other six are farther from the sun than the earth is. The farther they are, the longer trips they make around the sun. People noticed long ago that these traveling bodies moved around in the sky in fixed paths. It is a force called gravity ( 重力) that holds them in their paths.We know that every little bit of matter in the universe ( 宇宙) pulls upon every other bit of matter. Because the sun is so large, the pulls between the sun and the planets are thus great. If it were not for these pulls, the planets would fly off into space. In the same way there exists a pull between the earth and the moon, which keeps the moon traveling in its orbit ( 轨道) around our planet, the earth. Gravity holds you to the earth ' s surface, and pulls back to it the ball whicyou throw into the air. Of course, the ball also pulls on the larger earth but the earth is so much larger that the pull is not noticed.Now remember that large bodies bring to bear a greater pull on any body than smaller ones which contain less material. Buteach object in the universe, no matter how small, pulls on all other objects to some degree.21. The earth is _________ in the sun family.A) one of the nine fellow members B) bigger than two of the other bodiesC) smaller than the other bodies D) nearer than two fellow members22.

The pull makes the ball ________ .A) you throw into the air fall back to the earthB) go up into the skyC) fly around the bodyD) none of the above25. Which of the following is TRUE?A) The smaller matters fly off into space.B) We do not notice the pull of the moon.C) The moon travels around the earth because it's nearer to the earth than the other fellow members inthe sun's family.D) The larger the bodies are, the greater their pull is.Part III.

It can only hold two people.. It’s difficult to slow down.. It’s open to bad weather conditions.The Lightning Bug:. It’s very small.. It’s difficult to get in and out.8Reference answersStudent A: The Horseless Sulky was invented by an Italian in the 1930s. it is easy to turn and can go up to 190 kilometers per hour. It is also easy to get into and out of the Horseless Sulky. And it is easy to see things both on the left and on the right.Student B: The Lightning Bug was invented by an American in the 1930s. It can go up to 65 kilometers per hour. It is completely safe because it can stop I a very short time to avoid car crashes and it can’t turn over. The windows are made of plastic instead of glass so that passengers won’t get hurt.Student A: I think the Horseless Sulk is better than the Lightning Bug because it is so easy to get into and out of the Horseless Sulky, and it is easy to see things both on the left and on the right. In contrast, the Lightning Bug is very small and difficult to get in and out. Besides the Horseless Sulky can go so fast and it is three times faster than the Lightning Bug.Student B: I think the Lightening Bug is better than the Horseless Sulky.

The average one-way commute has grown by 13 percent to 25 minutes. For a growing number of people, getting to work takes more than an hour. In 2000, only in New York State did more than 10 percent of workers spend more than an hour getting to work. Now that situation can be found in several other states as well. Two pint eight million people have so called extreme commutes because they spend more than 90 minutes on their way to work.Steven, an electrical engineer, has an extreme commute between home and work. He learves home before dawn and returns after dark, but as tiring or boring as Stevens trip may sound, he says it’s the way to keep the home and jo he loves. “I have the balance right now,” Steven said. “I could do similar jobs closer, but not with the work rewards and job satisfaction I have now. and I could live closer, but I wouldn’t have the lifestyle that I desire.”Longer commutes frequently involve people who live at one end of the city and work at another. Such a pattern probably begins with companies moving away from the city center, attracting workers to move to less expensive areas further away from the city center. People see this as an opportunity because such aove may provide more affordable housing or better schools. Steven spends about $185 a week on gas. Even high fuel costs can pay off in a better quality of life.Added to long commutes are increased traffic jams, however. Comuters typically spend 47 hours a year in traffic jams, up from 40 hours a decade earlier.Q1: How much time on average do Americans spend on their way to work?Q2: What is the present situation about Americans’ commuting t work?Q3: why does Steven choose to have an extreme commute?Q4: Which of the following is the disadvantage of long commutes?Answers1C 2A 3D 4APassage 2Scripts and answersHumans’ first means of transportation were walking and swimming. 1)Gradually, humans learned to use animals for transportation. The use of animals not only allowed heavier loads to be hauled by them, but also 2)enabled humans to ride the animals so they could travel longer distances in a shorter amount of time. The invention of the wheel helped make animal transportation more efficient through the introduction of 3)vehicles. Also, water transportation 4)dates back to very early times and it was the best way to move large quantities of materials over long distances before the Industrial Revolution. 5)As a result, most cities that grew up as sites for trading have been established along rivers or the coast.Until the Industrial Revolution, transportation was very slow and expensive. After the Revolution, transportation changed 6)thoroughly. In the 19th century, the invention of the steam engine made land transportation independent of human or animal power. Both speed and 7)capacity increased rapidly.With the development of cars at 8)turn of the 20th century, land transportation became more common. In 1903, the first controllable airplane was invented, and after world War I, it became a fast way to transport people and goods. After World War II, 9)automobiles and airplanes became more popular as methods of transportation. Then, after high-speed rail was first introduced in Japan in 1964, passengers started using it in Asia and Europe instead of using airplanes to travel long distances.Now, 10)thanks to the development of technology, human beings are able to enjoy various methods of transportation for their speed and comfort.。

On one hand, video games can improve problem-solving skills and enhance hand-eye coordination. Playing video games requires players to solve different challenges and puzzles, which can be beneficial for their critical thinking abilities. Additionally, video games that involve physical movements, such as Wii Sports or Dance Dance Revolution, can help teenagersstay active and fit. On the other hand, excessive gaming can lead to addiction and have negative impacts on mental and physical health. Spending too much time playing video games can affect a teenager’s social life and academic performance. Therefore, it is important for parents to set limits on gaming time and encourage a balanced lifestyle for their children.In conclusion, video games can have both positive and negative effects on teenagers. It is crucial for teenagers to find a balance between gaming and other activities, such as studying, exercising, and socializing. Parents should play an active role in monitoring and limiting their children’s gaming time to ensure a healthy and well-rounded development.Translation1.Sample Answer: 尽管全球化给许多国家带来了经济发展和文化交流的机会,但它也带来了新的挑战。

Reading ComprehensionPassage 1If you’ve been joining in chat room conversations, or exchanging e-mails with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking” online—many of them are talking at the same time.It’s fast: it allows you to talk to six people at once. It’s convenient: you can use three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious key-strokes telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(=be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (=pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTEL (=rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got to go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “Shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation is going, too.1. When people are online, they talk by ____-.A. speaking languages other than EnglishB. exchanging e-mails with people they don’t knowC. using technology their elders don’t useD. using an especially short form of English2. According to the passage, the Internet allows many people in the world to _____.A. talk at the same time with one anotherB. discover their friends and relativesC. create a language that is simple and newD. find out things that can make them laugh3. What does the sentence “There’s neither time nor space for explanations” mean?A. People should use words to express themselves in a proper way.B. People should know what time it is when they are talking.C. People online have to express themselves in a simple way.D. People should communicate with each other in a funny way.4. If you get 19/M/HK as an answer to you're A/S/L question, it means_____.A. the person who is talking to you is 19 from Hong Kong and he is tallB. you are talking to a boy who is 19 years old and he lives in Hong KongC. you are talking to 19 boys from Hong Kong at the same timeD. the boy from Hong Kong has been online for 19 minutes.5. Which of the following is a way to save time online?A. Not using capital letters or punctuation marks.B. Not letting dust form on your keyboard.C. Using the “Shift” key when sending e-mails.D. Coming up with ideas as quickly as possible.Passage 2Many doctors are now trained in techniques to lessen tension and stress. Here health professionals reveal their favorite methods.Comfort with food. When diet expert Judith Wurtman is stressed out, she does what a lot of people do this time of year: she reaches for food. But in her case, it’s a healthy rice cake or7 / 277 / 27two. “My research suggests that carbohydrates (碳水化合物) raise levels of a brain chemical, which has a calming effect on the entire body,”says the MIT research scientist. “So signs of stress—such as anger, tension, and inability to focus—are eased.”Run from your problems. Dr. Kenneth H. Cooper, who popularized aerobics (有氧运动) through his 1968 book by that name, handles his own stress with a daily after-work run. He knows that physical activity reduces anxiety and depression. “Aerobic exercise is the best way to dissipate stress,” says Cooper.Look to the light side. On his way to the hospital where his father was to have surgery, Joel Goodman shared a hotel bus with the anxious relatives of several patients. The driver began telling his stressed-out passengers a few jokes. “Then he did some magic tricks that had my mother and me laughing.” Goodman says. “In that five-minute ride he taught us that humor can lessen our stress.”The surgery was successful, and Goodman was so moved by his experience that he researched laughter’s power. “A good laugh relaxes muscles, reduces blood pressure, restrains stress-related hormones and enhances the immune system (免疫系统),” he says.Go green. Coffee, loaded with hidden sources of caffeine, stimulates (刺激) the nervous system and can make you feel stressed more easily. That’s why Arizona doctor Andrew Weil, author of the best seller Spontaneous Healing, does not take caffeine. “When I want gentle energy, I drink green tea. It contains a caffeine-like element”, Weil says. It also contains compounds that, some studies suggest, have anti-cancer effects.1. The following are ways to free you from stress EXCEPT _____.A. looking at things in a more relaxed wayB. getting a lot of sleep during the dayC. eating some food with carbohydratesD. doing some aerobic exercise2. Eating or drinking the following can be helpful in freeing you from stress EXCEPT _____.A. drink green teaB. eat some breadC. eat some rice cakeD. drink a lot of coffee 3. A good laugh is very helpful EXCEPT to _____.A. reduce blood pressureB. restrain stress-related hormonesC. enhance the immune systemD. take a holiday4. What is the meaning of the word “dissipate” in the part “Run from Your Problems”?A. Lessen.B. Depress.C. Disturb.D. Level.5. Which of the following group of people can have a happier life, according to the passage?A. Those who are continuously eating something.B. Those who are always engaged in working.C. Those who use right methods to reduce tension.D. Those who study medicine or psychology.Passage 3In my opinion, there is only one legitimate(合法的) handgun sport and that is aim practice. It is practiced at objects which are properly monitored and usually quite safe. Only certain handguns are true “sporting weapons”, seen as such by the sport’s lovers.On the other hand, shooting at tin cans and other small objects in one’s backyard is not and should not be considered a serious sport. When uncontrolled, it can be a very dangerous practice.Some opponents(反对者) of handgun control have stated that we are out to stop all hunting and that controlling the handgun would severely affect hunting. That is simply untrue. Handgun control would in no way limit the freedom of the true hunter. Few if any hunters consider the handgun an effective hunting weapon.There are a few hunters who do hunt with handguns, but most states place restrictions(限制) on the type of guns that can be used in hunting, the reason being that killing of game should be done in as humane(人道的) a way as possible. Some small handguns are more likely to wound the animal rather than kill it at once. Only long gun, rifles and shotguns are effective arms for hunting.People must understand that handguns and hunters are separate matters. Because most of the hunters use a rifle or a shotgun, there is no reason why their search for game and sport should8 / 278 / 27。

UNIT 5 Choose to be alone on purpose UNDERSTANDING SHORT CONVERSATIONS1. M: Do you mean you once lived alone in that hotel?W: Yeah.M: What was your life like before you were introduced to this center for the old?W: Oh, it was a nightmare. I wasn't sick, but I was acting sick. Every day was the same -- I would just lie on my bed and maybe cook up some soup.Q: What does the woman mean?2. W: Mr. Jones has been living all by himself for four years since his wife died.M: Yes. And he is 71 already.W: You know, he used to be very talkative. I wonder how he can endure the solitude.M: Well, I hear he goes to "The Brighter Side" -- Rockford's Day Care Center for the elderly -- and meets other elderly people there.Q" What is the conversation about?3. W: You always seem to be busy. How did you find time to write that book and make it a best-seller?M: Well, I worked on it for a stretch of 14 days during the last Christmas holidays.W" Didn't you stay with your family?M: My parents and my brother were traveling in Thailand at that time. So I had more time for the book.Q: What does the man mean?4. W: Traveling is a real delight. But I wonder why you prefer traveling alone.M: It can make you understand what absolute freedom means -- without the company of friends or family.W: Mm... I see your point. I may have a try someday.Q: What does the woman think of the man's idea?5. M: I'm going to take a trip by myself next week.W: But what about your wife Jenny?M: She'll go with her friends -- Mary and Helen perhaps. We read an article the other day, you know, and decided to try out the idea ourselves.W: What's it about?M: In fact, what impressed us most in the article were the words printed on a rock at Taiwan's most famous resort Sun Moon Lake. One tourist wrote, "Came with my wife, had a lovely time." And beside it someone wrote later, "Came without my wife, had a far better time."Q: What can be learned from the conversation?6. M: I can hardly imagine myself living alone all my life.W: It's not easy. You might be faced with difficulties concerning food or accommodation. And some people's hostile criticisms can be very embarrassing.M: What's more, you might feel lonely and frustrated when you are advanced in years.Q: Which of the following is not a problem of living alone according to the conversation?7. W: It seems that loneliness has become a national disease in the United States, don't you think?M: Yes, that's true. When you're alone, you sometimes want to lose the feeling of separateness and belong to something larger and more powerful than the weak, lonely self.W: So the sense of moral isolation is unbearable.Q: What is the conversation about?W: You've been in New York for two months. What about your new life there?M: Not bad. I like the job, only I feel lonely sometimes.W" That's nothing new. Loneliness is common among people living in cities, and it even affects children. I can still remember the words of a 12-year-old girl.She said, "...for a long time, I have just been an "I" person. All people belong to a "We" except me. Not belonging to a "We" makes you too lonely.M: Well, there must be something unnatural about it.Q: What's the man's problem living in New York?9. M: So many people choose to live alone nowadays. What do you think of that?W: Well, some of them love such kind of lifestyle while some others don" t.M: It can't be easy anyway. You must be prepared to face difficulties all by yourself.W: Yeah. But if you are alone and enjoying life all the while, you have mastered an art of a high degree.Q: What does the woman mean?10. W: Do you often watch foreign movies?M: Yes, quite often, especially Hollywood movies. I admire those American heroes in them.W: What are the characteristics of an American hero in your opinion?M: Urn... he chooses to be alone. He may explore wild areas, fight against crimes or other things without the company of others. That's only one characteristic among many, but that's the very thing that strikes me most.Q: What characteristic of an American hero impresses the man most deeply? 11. M: It suddenly occurred to me yesterday why there aren't many art schools in the United States.W: Why is that, do you think?M: You see, the Europeans are generally secure in their family ties and rigid class faithfulness, so the European artists tend to form groups. But the Americans usually seek out things as individuals alone. That's to say, American artists are often independent-minded.Q: Why aren't there many schools of art in America according to the man? 12. W: My friends are all busy now, so I have to spend the whole morning alone.M: But you can still find pleasure in solitude.W: Do you mean you can enjoy yourself without company?M: That's right. For me, a solitary life means much more than loneliness. When I am alone, I can do whatever I like, and feel whatever I feel. That's a greatluxury!Q: What does the man think of solitude?13. M: Why don't you want to go to the party with Peter?W: We don't have the same tastes. I'd rather be alone than go with him.Q: What does the woman mean?14. W: I'm going to the library. Will you go with me?M: No, I'd like to study alone. Thank you.W: I do need some solitary hours when I'm writing. But when it comes to the review of the term's work, I prefer discussions with others.Q: What will the woman do when she wants to review the lessons?15. W: Why are you so happy?M: I have made a great find.W: Oh, yes? What's that?M: Well, The other day I found myself unexpectedly alone in Beijing for about three or four hours between the appointments. So I went to Wangfujing and spent the "empty" time looking at things by myself. Just think of it! I discovered I could enjoy myself being alone.Q: What did the man find a few days ago?16. M: What on earth do you think is the pleasure of a solitary life?W: For one thing you can do whatever you like without interference, and for another, you needn't be afraid of hurting others or offending people, when you don't have the same taste, character or mood as other people.Q: What is the conversation about?17. W: Why, you look so sleepy!M: I stayed up until midnight last night.W: Why is that?M: My parents were out and so I finished a novel I had been longing to read at one sitting.Q: Why did the man stay up late?18. M: Is that Mr. Kennan over there?W: Yes. He's quite a solitary type of person really. You know, he spends most of his time at home, reading, listening to the radio, things like that.M: I see him at the pub occasionally.W: That's also possible. But you would never see him at weekends. He's always off somewhere in the country -- of course always on his own.Q: What can be learned about Mr. Kennan?19.

(D)Understanding Long ConversationReporter: I was surprised to find the other day that a lot of children have the experience of being home alone, such as during the vacations. The children enjoy themselves without the control of their parents, but there are also some hidden dangers for them in this society filled with violence. That's why many parents are worried when they have to leave their children alone in the house. Professor Elkind, do you think this has become a serious social problem?Professor Elkind: Yes. As we know, this used to be a problem of poor children, but now more and more middle-class kids are left at home alone, too, and the suburbs have some of the same social ills as cities.Reporter: So it's more common now.Professor Elkind: That's right.Reporter: I wonder if all the children enjoy staying at home alone?Professor Elkind: Not all of them. The data show that it's a frightening experience for 8- or 9-year-olds to be at home alone even though it's sometimes necessary. Reporter: I'm sure you must have some good advice for the anxious parents. Professor Elkind: Yeah, quite a lot. First, be sure the child knows how to lock and unlock the doors and what to do if a stranger calls or knocks on the door. All children should be conscious of strangers and be wary of them. Second, we can teach communication. Give them phone numbers of people to call if there's any problem, and give them strategies to cope, rather than just saying, "This is good practice for you." Some parents throw up their hands, thinking that because they can't do everything to protect their children completely, they can't do anything, but that's not true.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the conversation you have just heard:I. What is the main topic of this conversation?2. Which of the following was a problem in the past?3. Who is afraid of staying at home alone according to the conversation?4. Whom are the suggestions addressed to?5. What idea that some parents have is wrong about the protection of their children? Key: 1. (C) 2. (D) 3. (A) 4. (B) 5. (D)UNDERSTANDING PASSAGESPassage 1A solitary diner slips into a midtown Manhattan restaurant, trying not to be noticed. No sooner does he check his coat than the voice of the headwaiter comes booming across the restaurant."Alone again, eh? "As all eyes are raised, the waiter, with enormous good cheer, adds: "That's because they won't accept him."And then, just in case there is a customer in the restaurant who isn't yet aware of his situation, a waiter shouts out from the counter: "Well, we'll take care of him anyway, won't we fellows!" And there are a lot of glances and whispers.Eating alone in a restaurant is one of the most frightening experiences in America.Obviously, the solitary diner is looked down upon by waiters, and made fun of by couples. He is the unwanted and unloved child of the restaurant. As soon as he appears, he is led out of sight and seated at a thin table with barely enough room on it for a cold dish. The solitary diner is squeezed between two thin tables, often a hair's breadth from the men's room. There he sits with his feet lodged in a railing and wondering where he went wrong in life.Most solitary guys are afraid to face this embarrassing situation. Therefore, they would prefer to take small bites at a sandwich in their relatively safe apartments.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the passage you have just heard:1. How does the solitary diner usually enter a restaurant?2. How is the solitary diner often treated by waiters according to the speaker?3. How would people feel if they eat alone in an American restaurant?4. Which of the following is not mentioned as a solitary guy's experience in the restaurant?5. What would most solitary guys do to avoid the frightening experience in the restaurant?Passage 2In less than 20 years, from 1975 to 1993, the number of Americans over 65 who live with their adult children declined by half, dropping from 18 percent to less than 10 percent. There are certainly many reasons for this decrease, from the improved health of older Americans to the amber of two-or-more-job households. But a third of the over-65 population live entirely alone.When middle-aged children in America announce that their 80- or 90-year-old mother "still lives in her own house", I notice that they are quite proud and satisfied. But do the old people in the United States like to live alone?No doubt some of them do. Or at least some of them prefer living alone. They don't like to change their habit or adjust to new ones when living with others. After all, independence is the chief and most honored virtue in this country.Independence is one of the things older Americans try to achieve in their lives. But if you live long enough, independence inevitably becomes an illusion. You can no longer keep up with ~yard work, so you move to an apartment or even a center for the elderly. And you can't see well enough to drive anymore.Seeking help with the routine work of living also means surrendering control. If you ask i0thers to take you to the grocery store, you must fit your shopping to their schedule and preference for supermarkets. Rely on restaurants to deliver your dinner and you have to accept unfamiliar dishes. If your daughter volunteers to clean your house, you can't point out to her the way you ie0uld when she was a teenager, the dust she missed. After a lifetime of doing and having things your own way, you may have to work at feeling -- or even pretending -- gratitude.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the passage you have just heard:6. How many Americans over 65 live by themselves according to the speaker?7. What do middle-aged Americans think of their aged parents living alone?8. What will happen if you are in your old age according to the speaker?9. What will the old people do if they choose to live with others?10. Which of the following is true about the old people living alone?Passage 3A funny thing happened on the way to the communications revolution: we stopped talking to one another.I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and -- I became invisible, absent from the conversation.The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a setback to the intimacy of human interaction. With e-mail and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated, the alienation index goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person anymore. Directory assistance is almost always fully automated.I am not against modern technology. I own a cell Phone, an ATM card, a voice-mail system, and an e-mail account. Giving them up isn't wise -- they're a great help to us. It's some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy.More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn't really have time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier-- or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts.So I've put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell-phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I'm at home.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard:11. What happened to the speaker when she was walking with her friend in the park?12. What does the speaker think of the progress in communications technology?13. Why can't we call a person to get another phone number?14. How does the speaker react to automation?15. What is the bad effect of communications technology according to the speaker? Passage 4Distinct noises are coming through my bedroom wall. "John, are you moving furniture in there? Again? " I call. The wall muffles his "yes" but does not filter out of his voice the tinge of the excitement.I am not upset by these impulsive rearrangements, just amused at their frequency.Among the noises, I remember how much John longed for the privacy of his own domain two years ago when he was sharing a room with his younger brother, Robert. "Morn, " he said, "can I have a room of my own? I could use Jeff's. He won't mind."It was true that Jeff had graduated from college that past June and had flown from the nest. But would he mind if the place where he had spent so many hours growing up was pulled out from under him?It turned out that getting Jeff's permission to change the room was easy. "Of course, " he said. "It would be selfish of me to hold on to it."Then John and I began to clean out closets and drawers, sending all the things Jeff had left behind. In that room, Jeff's things piled up around me, and I could almost touch the little boy I knew was gone forever.But we accept -- at least we say we do. All of parenting is a series of letting go by degrees. The child walks and runs and rides a bike. Then he is driving a car, and we are falling asleep before he gets home, alert, even in our dreams, to the sound of his motor gearing down.As Jeff said, to hold on would be selfish. Now it was time for John, shouldering through the door with his things under his arms, his eyes bright with the promise of independence, to disappear behind the door. It was time for the letting go to begin again.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard:16. What is the speaker's reaction to John's frequent rearrangements of things in his room?17. Where does Jeff live now ?18. Why does the speaker say that she "could almost touch the little boy"?19. What does the speaker think of parenting?20. How did John achieve independence according to the speaker?Passage 5Thirty years ago, anyone blaming loneliness for physical illness would have been laughed at. But as scientists studied different populations, loneliness kept emerging as a risk factor. In one study, Californian researchers followed 4,700 residents of Alameda County for 10 years, starting in 1965.At first, the participants reported their key sources of companionship and estimated the time they devoted to each other. During the study, the people who reported the least social contact died at nearly three times the rate of those reporting the most. The source of companionship didn't matter, but time spent with others was critical.Since then, researchers have studied men, women, soldiers and students from countries all over the world. And the same pattern keeps emerging. Women who say they feel isolated go on to die of cancer at several times the expected rate. College students who report "strained and cold" relationships with their parents suffer extraordinary rates of hypertension and heart disease decades later. Heart-attack survivors who happen to live by themselves die at twice the rate of those who live with others.For those of us who are still healthy, the lesson should be obvious. It's clear that reaching out to others can help our bodies thrive. It's equally clear that we're growing more isolated. In 1900, only 5 percent of U.S. households consisted of one person living alone. The proportion reached 13 percent in 1960, and it stands at 25 percent today. In a book entitled Bowling Alone, author Robert Putnam shows that our social connections are disappearing on other levels, too. In 1976, Americans attended an average of 12 club meetings a year. The current average is five. Card games, dinner parties and shared family meals have all followed the same pattern. We all have a good excuse -- we're too busy -- but we shouldn't be surprised when it catches up with us.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard:21. When did the Californian researchers finish their study?22. What is the essential factor taken into consideration in the study?23. What can healthy people learn from the study?24. What trend is introduced by the speaker?25. What pattern do activities such as card games and dinner parties follow? Key: Passage 1: 1. (D) 2. (A) 3. (B) 4. (C) 5. (C) Passage 2: 6. (C) 7. (B) 8. (D) 9. (A) 10. (B)Passage 3:11. (C) 12. (A) 13. (C) 14. (C) 15. (D)Passage 4: 16. (C) 17. (D) 18. (C) 19. (C) 20. (A)Passage 5: 21. (C) 22. (B) 23. (D) 24. (D) 25. (B)。

The Olympic symbol consists of five interlaced rings of equal dimensions, representing the union of the five continents and the meeting of athletes from throughout the world at the Olympic Games. The Olympics truly took off as an international sporting event after 1924, when the 8th Olympic Games were held in Paris.

) He is.2) She is.3) She is.4) She is.5) He is.Yes. Generally speaking, these sports are popular among college students, though they are not as popular as basketball and soccer.Not all of these sports are popular among college students. As far as I know, swimming and tennis are more popular among college students than the other three sports.Reference:1. I like jogging and playing tennis. When I jog, I listen to music or English. So I don't feel bored and I can learn something while exercising. I also like playing tennis because it is a very exciting sport and it is fun playing with friends.2. I don't do sports every day, but I try to exercise regularly. On weekdays, I'm too busy with my classes and homework, so I can only do sports occasionally. But on weekends I always manage to spend as much time as I can playing table tennis, going hiking, or doing yoga.I spend about half an hour doing exercise every morning. Usually, I run on the sports field on campus. But if it rains, I do push-ups (俯卧撑) and sit-ups (仰卧起坐) in my dorm. If I have time, I play soccer or basketball in the afternoon with my classmates.3. Yes, I think so. Playing sports offers many obvious benefits. Playing sports is good to our health and good health is important for success at college. It also helps cultivate cooperation and teamwork. Besides, playing sports is very good for the development of our social skills, for sports teach us how to communicate and cooperate with people.Reference:1. Because the Sydney-to-Melbourne race is 875 kilometers long and it is a harsh test of endurance for the world's top athletes.2. Cliff Young was a toothless 61-year-old farmer; he was wearing rubber boots, and was much older than the other runners.3. Other athletes neither believed it nor treated Cliff Young with respect.4.Because Cliff Young didn't run properly. He had the strangest running style and appeared to shuffle.5. When people found that Cliff Young ran through the entire night without sleeping and when it seemed to them that he intended to keep running until he reached the finish line or fell ill or was injured.6. When he was running, Cliff Young imagined he was gathering his sheep and trying to outrun a storm.7. Cliff Young gave all the prize money to five other runners. He didn't keep a single cent for himself.8.Cliff Young is a brilliant example showing that ordinary people also have the inherent quality to achieve great results.Reference:1.I think teamwork, fair play and honesty, and excellence in performance best characterize the spirit of sports.Teamwork: Individuals can be strong on their own, but they can be much stronger in a team. You can't win alone in a team game.Fair play and honesty: Respect the rules of the game. Be honest. Never cheat even though you know you won't get caught.Excellence in performance: Always try your best. Show your efforts and best performance.2.By playing sports, people can cultivate honesty, determination, and mutual respect.Honesty: You will learn that having the sense of fair play and observing moral principles are essential in playing sports.Determination: Be ready to face difficulties or frustrations and never give up. Ultimately, this could be the deciding factor when it comes to winning or losing. Mutual respect: It is compulsory to play by the rules. You will learn to respect your opponents, fellow players, referees, and fans.3. No, winning isn't the most important thing in sports. Winning is good, but there is much more about playing sports than winning. Playing sports brings about many benefits, the most important of which is to cultivate the spirit of sports. The spirit of sports is best reflected in the Olympic Creed, which reads: "The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well."4. I think it means that a true champion has great confidence and determination that we should not take lightly. A true champion knows one must push his limits of endurance or strength or skill to achieve victory. A true champion never gives up.5.The story of Cliff Young is extraordinary and inspirational, from which I have learned a great deal. I have learned that we should pursue our dreams regardless of what other people have to say. An ordinary person can become a hero, and wonderful things do happen when we are determined and committed. Most important of all, we should believe in ourselves!1. Theconference which I attend every year is going to be held in London in January next year.2. According to the terms of your, you must give three months' notice if you intend to leave this company.3. We were honored that so many people ofand talent were present to discuss the issues.4.

In that instant, Cliff Young became a beloved national hero.In 1564, William Shakespeare, the great poet and playwright (剧作家), was born in England. As a boy, he attended a local grammar school in his hometown. At the age of 18 he married Anne Hathaway, and they had three children.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Y ou should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.In 1789 the US government passed a law which said that the land of the American Indians could never be taken from them without their agreement. One hundred years later, however, the Indians had only a very small part of the land that originally belonged to them. How did this great injustice occur?After 1812 white settlers began to move west across North America. At first, the settlers and the Indians lived in peace. However, the number of settlers increased greatly every year, and slowly the Indians began to see the white settlers as a danger to their survival. To feed themselves, the settlers killed more and more wild animals. The Indians, who depended on these animalsfor food, had to struggle against starvation. The settlers also brought with them many diseases which were common in white society, but which were new for the Indians. Great numbers of Indians became sick and died. Between 1843 and 1854 the Indian population in one area of the country went down from 100,000 to 30,000.More land was needed for the increasing number of white settlers. In Washington, the old respect for the rights of the Indians disappeared. The old promises to the Indians were broken; the federal government began to move groups of Indians from their original homelands to other, poorer parts of the country. Some Indians reacted angrily and violently to this treatment. They began to attack white settlers, and the Indian War began. For thirty years, until the late 1880s, different groups of Indians fought against the injustices of the white man. They had a few famous successes, but the result of the struggle was never in doubt. There were too many white soldiers, and they were too powerful. Many Indians were killed; the survivors were moved from their homelands to different areas of the country. It was a terrible chapter in the history of a country that promised freedom and equality to everyone.21.What is said about the land of the American Indians in the passage?A)The land of the American Indians was taken from them without their consent.B)The American Indians had very few successes in their fight against the injustice of thewhite man.C)The Us law about the land of the American Indians was violated as soon as it waspassed.D)The American Indians have finally regained the right of their own land.22.Why did American Indians begin to see the white settlers as a danger to them?A)They fought against any law protecting the right of IndiansB)The settlers killed the animals and brought new diseasesC)They took away their animals and sold them to other white peopleD) They made American Indians work hard without pay23.What does the writer mean by “the old respect for the rights of the Indians disappeared”?A)The government had a new respect for the rights of the IndiansB)The government of the US never had any respect for the rights of the IndiansC)The white settlers began to ignore the law concerning the rights of IndiansD)The government began to ignore the rights of the Indians24.The US government began to move Indians off their original land. How did the Indiansreact?A)They became sick and diedB)They began to fight the whitesC) They had to struggle against starvationD) They launched a war against the whites which lasted for a hundred years25.What is the writer’s opinion about the treatment that the Indians received from the USgovernment?A)He believes that the government always respected the rights of the IndiansB)He believes that the government should pass a law to protect the IndiansC)He believes that the government treated the Indians very unjustlyD)He believes that the government cannot be criticized for its treatment of the Indians Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:In the opinion of many Americans and Europeans, we began to really explore our world only in the sixteenth century. According to them, the sailors of the ancient world did not explore distant parts of the world; they did not have the necessary knowledge or skills for long sea journeys. However, the people who have this opinion are forgetting two important facts of history.First, sometimes early scientists have an idea which is correct, but scientists in later centuries do not believe it. For example, about 270 BC, a Greek scientist had an idea which we all believe today: The earth moves around the sun. But for the following 1600 years scientists did not believe this. In their opinion, the sun clearly moved around the earth. They discovered the truth again only in the fifteenth century!The second fact of history that many people forget is this: Ancient does not mean primitive. For example, the ancient Egyptians knew a great deal about the stars; they used the knowledge to find their way across the oceans. Two thousand years ago a Greek scientist who lived in Egypt calculated the distance around the earth. The results of his calculations were close the actual distance we know today! So the ancients had agreat deal of scientific knowledge. They also had skills which equaled the skills of today. For example, 1300 years ago and before, fishermen in Ireland built their boats of wood and leather. Today some fishermen in Ireland still make boats of the same design. They use tools and materials which are not very different from the tools and materials which their ancestors used. Why? The ancient design of the boats is good, and with skillful sailors, these boats can sail in all kinds of weather.Clearly, long before the sixteenth century, people had the skills, the knowledge, and the equipment which were necessary for long journeys by sea. The world did not have to wait until the sixteenth century for its first explorers!26.Which of the following statements is consistent with the passage?A)According to the writer, we only began to really explore the world in the sixteenthcenturyB)The ancient Egyptians had very little knowledge about the starsC)In the history of science, people sometimes have to discover a fact a second timeD)The writer agrees with many Americans and Europeans except for the two factsmentioned in the passage.27.Why does the writer use the example of the Greek scientist who calculated the distancearound the world?A)He wants to show the knowledge of ancient scientistsB)He wants to give an example of something which later scientists greatly improvedC)He wants to show that science has not been developing significantlyD)He wants to give an example of scientific knowledge which was available to earlyexplorers28. The word “primitive”(Line 1,Parag raph 3) means____A) underestimated B) unsophisticated C) basic D) primary29.According to the writer, why do Irish fishermen still use boats like the boats which theirancestors used 1000 years ago?A)They don’t have the money for expensive boatsB)Boats made of wood or leather are light and fastC)The necessary materials are easily availableD)The design of the boats is very good30.“People from the ancient world sailed around Africa. They even reached America.” In youropinion, how would the writer of the passage feel about the statements?A)In his opinion, they are possibleB)He does not believe themC)He has used this as an important fact to praise ancient civilizationD)In his opinion, ancient explorers did not have the skills necessary for long journeys Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take the fact of friendship for granted, we often don’t clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few, for example; the average among students is about 6 perperson.Moreover, a great many relationships come under the general term “friendship”. In all cases, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of closeness between them and the reasons for their interest in each other vary greatly.At the beginning, much depends on how people meet, and on good first impressions. As we get to know people, we consider things like age, race, looks, economic and social status, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of the greatest importance, it is more difficult to have a good relationship with people when there is a big difference in age and background.We pay attention to actual behavior, facial expression, and the way a person speaks. Friends will stand closer together and will spend more time looking at each other than ordinary acquaintances. Smiles and soft voices also express friendliness, and it is because they may give the wrong signals that shy people often have difficulty in making friends. A friendly look with the wrong facial expression can turn into an unfriendly stare, and nervousness may be wrongly understood as unfriendliness. People who do not look one in the eye are not trusted when, in fac t, they simply do not have confidence.Some relationships are a result of argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have the same ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests—they often talk about “being on the same wavelength”. The more closely involved people become, the more they depend on one another. People want to do friends favors and hate to let them down. Equally, friends have to learn to make allowances for each other, to put up with annoying habits, and to accept differences in opinion. Imaginegoing on a long trip with someone you occasionally meet for a drink!In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the relationship between two people. But the mutual support and understanding that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a close and lasting relationship, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class or race.31.According to the passage, a friend is __________.A)somebody we usually take for grantedB) a person with whom we often go out withC)someone with whom we occasionally go for a long tripD)not just anybody we get on well with32.Which of the following factors does the author believe are important in developingfriendship?A)Age and background. B) Economic and social position.C)Race and looks. D) Same interests and behavior.33.The passage tells us that sometimes a face with the wrong expression could be mistaken as asign of __________.A)Nervousness B) confidence C) unfriendliness D) distrust34.By saying that “some relationship are a result of argument and discussion” (Line 1, Para. 5),the author means that __________.A)bad relationships are a result of argument and discussionB)connections with people can be developed through discussion and argumentC)argument and discussion can lead to improving personal relationshipsD)arguing and discussing things will sometimes result in friendship35.We learn from the passage that __________.A)friendship can overcome difference in experienceB)there are no special ceremonies to strengthen friendshipC)putting up with differences in opinion can lead to friendshipD)friendship can be strengthened by smiles and soft voicesPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Overhead bridges are found in many parts of Singapore, especially in places where traffic is very heavy and crossing the road is dangerous.The purpose of these bridges is to enable pedestrians(行人) to cross roads safely. Overhead bridges are used in very much the same way as zebra crossings. They are more efficient although less convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps. This is inconvenient especially to older people. When pedestrians use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traffic. However, when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government has built many overhead bridges to help pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time.The government of Singapore has spent large sums of money building these bridges. For their own safety, pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of risking their lives by dashing across the road. Old people, however, may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps, but it still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic.Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make it a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life.36.What is the advantage of overhead bridges mentioned in this passage?A)Taller vehicle can pass under them.B)Pedestrians can climb up and have a view of the city.C)They don’t hold up traffic and are safer for pedestrians.D)They are easier and more convenient for the pedestrians.37.Why were overhead bridges built in Singapore by its government?A)Because they do not hold up traffic.B)Because they provide an easy way for the drivers to cross the road.C)Because they save money for the government.D)Because they save time for the pedestrians.38.Which of the following is true according to this passage?A)Overhead bridges are found in places where traffic is heavy.B)Overhead bridges are found in every part of Singapore.C)Overhead bridges are found in many parts of the big cities in the world.D)Overhead bridges are only found in the capital of Singapore.39.The expression “zebra crossings” in Paragraph 2 means ______.A) a safe place where pedestrians use to walk across a roadB) a big animal covered with alternating black and white stripes in AfricaC) a safe place where zebras walk aroundD) a safe place across a road for children to play a game40.What is the writer’s attitude towards overhea d bridges?A)It is inconvenient to older people to walk across the road.B)It is much safer though a little difficult climbing up and down the steps for pedestrians.C)Overhead bridges are more beautiful than zebra crossings.D)To build overhead bridges is the order of the government.Part III Vocabulary and StructureSection A (10 points)Directions:There are 20 incomplete sentences in this part.

Then choose the best answers to complete the exercises that follow.A Time to TreasureHolidays are supposed to be times when families unite and enjoy spending quality time together. However, the reality can sometimes be a little more complicated. No matter how much you love your family, spending days on end together can sometimes be a less than relaxing experience. So how to put the magic back into the holiday season? Read on.First, plan ahead. The holiday will go more smoothly if it is well-organized. Make a checklist of tasks, including menu planning, decorations and entertainmen t. Don’t expect one person to do everything. In fact, the holiday will be much more fun if responsibilities are shared equally.Second, make things easy on yourself. If someone has to spend all their time in the kitchen, how relaxed are they going to feel? Think about preparing some dishes in advance or consider pot-luck style meals that everyone has to bring a dish. Not only does this decrease your workload, it also gets everyone more involved.Finally, make time for fun. Involve the whole family in activities that will bring them closer together. You could arrange outdoor games, movie nights or you could even set up a craft corner.By following these tips you can turn family celebrations into relaxing and stress-free events.1. According to the text, why are holidays sometimes difficult?A) Because you might not have enough money to enjoy yourself.B) Because spending a lot of time with family can be stressful.C) Because it can remind you of sad things that have happened in your life.D) Because taking time off work can be less than relaxing.2.

Listening InTask 1: Fast Food CultureSince the late 1900s, Americans have begun to fully believe in their “fast food culture”. In 1994 alone, fast food restaurants in the United States sold over 5 billion hamburgers, making it a favorite meal and an important commodity. Each day in 1996, seven percent of the population ate at the 11,400 McDonald’s; males from their mid-teens to their early 30s made up 75 percent of this business. By then, fast food had become a cultural phenomenon that reached beyond America’s borders. In 1996 McDonald’s owned over 7,000 restaurants in other countries, including: 1,482 in Japan; 430 in France; 63 in China; and so on. McDonald’s has also recognized some cultural differences. In Germany, for example, the outlets sell beer, in France they sell wine and beer, and in Saudi Arabia they have separate sections for men and women and close four times a day for prayers. But for the most part the fast food fare is the same, maintaining the same culture on an international level.1.D2.C3.A4.B5.CTask 2: McDonald’sW: John, I’m really hungry!M: Just get anything you want, it’s on me today. I’m thinking about a hamburger and some chicken McNuggets.W: Thanks, man. That sounds good. I love milkshakes here.M: Me, too. The formula of McDonald’s is really special.W: Right. And no matter where you go in the world, you can always see similar menu items and the same high level of quality in McDonald’s.M: It’s true. They also do well because of diversity. I mean, they sell different products according to people’s tastes and preferences in different areas.W: Right. Like the Spicy Chicken Sandwich and Seafood Soup that they sell in China. They could never sell that here! M: But I’ve heard that McDonald’s is really losing market share in the States now, and has closed down some restaurants. W: Yeah. It’s just so difficult to stay competitive when there so many fast food chains in the States. I mean there are KFC, Pizza Hut, and A&W, just to name a few.M: It seems that they’re doing better overseas,’ cause they’re really able to sell American culture.W: Yeah. They use all the media they can, and they do a good job.1.They will probably eat a hamburger, some chicken McNuggets, and the shakes.2.McDonald’s is so successful because of its formula and diversity.3.You can always see similar menu items and the same high level of quality.4.McDonald’s is losing market share in the States now and has closed down some restaurants. Because there’re so manyfast food chains in the U.S. that it’s difficult for McDonald’s to stay competitive.5.Because they’re able to sell American culture by using all the media they can.Task 3: American Eating HabitsEating habits in America really get a lot of criticism. But the truth is, it matters much where in America you look. In big cities, people are becoming more health-conscious every day. This is shown by what foods they choose to buy in supermarkets, and what restaurants they eat in. There is now a big push for “green” foods that are grown naturally. In cities like New York and Chicago, restaurants offer new and healthy styles to stay ahead of the competition. However, these habits contrast with those in America’s heartland. Here, people tend to eat more traditional and higher fat foods, such as breakfasts of eggs, bacon, sausages, toast and other greasy, but delicious foods. Fast food chain restaurants such as McDonald’s and theOlive Garden, which serve cheaper food, draw a lot of customers and are popular in most places.There are different eating habits across America. In big cities, people have now become more health-conscious than ever. There is a big push for “green” foods that are grown naturally. In New York and other big cities, restaurants offer new and healthy styles to stay ahead of the competition. However, people in America’s heartland are quite different. They often eat more traditional and higher fat foods. Fast food chain restaurants draw a lot of customers and are popular in most places. Task 4: An AnnouncementHave you ever dreamed of tasting your favorite McDonald’s foods for only one dollar, and then, adding something to your Extra Value Meal? Now your dream can come true with McDonald’s Dollar Menu. Great choices. Every day here at McDonald’s. Look for these and more: Salad, Double Cheeseburger, Fries, McChicken Sandwiches, Snack Fruits, Soft Drinks, and Pies. Have a great meal!IV. Speaking OutNow Your TurnJames: Hey, Lisa! The physics exam is over at last! What’re you planning to do this weekend?Lisa: Oh, nothing special. You got any good ideas?James: We haven’t had a party for ages. How about having a pot-luck supper Saturday evening? Each of us can contribute something.We’ll have a good time.Lisa: Good idea! And who do you think we should invite?James: The whole class, of course. The more the merrier.Lisa: Terrific!Model 2 What do you recommend?Now Your TurnWaitress:Here’s the menu.Jennifer: Thanks. Chris, let’s have fried noodles for a change, shall we?Christopher:That sounds good, but it’s not satisfying with only noodles.Jennifer: Waitress, what do you recommend?Waitress:How about seafood with fried noodles and vegetables?Christopher: Good. I like seafood.Jennifer:Same here.Model 3 It’s easier said than done!Now Your TurnSarah: Hi, Jim! You look pale. What’s wrong?James: Well, yesterday I had a huge steak for supper. At night I had a terrible stomachache.Sarah: You shouldn’t have eaten that much. How’re you feeling now?James: Better than I was. But I guess I won’t be able to look a cow in the eye for a while.Sarah: Take my advice! If you eat regular meals, you won’t feel so bad.James: It’s easier said than done. Steak is my favorite.V. Let’s TalkJane: I’m from the Students Union. We’re doing a survey of students’ eating habits. Would you mind if I asked you a few questions?Jim: Will it take long?Jane: No, not really. Fie minutes maybe? There aren’t all that many questions.Jim: And what’s it for exactly?Jane: Well, we want to get an idea of the sort of things students eat on a regular basis, and to find out how aware people are about diet and nutrition and those matters. The intention is to produce an information leaflet about healthy eating. Jim: Yeah, I suppose something like that would be quite useful. Anyway, what do you want to know, exactly?Jane: OK, first question. What would you say your favorite food is?Jim: That’s easy. Hamburgers and fries. Lots of fries1 I must say I like a nice Chinese meal as well.Jane: Mmm. You’re getting into some bad habits there. How many meals do you have a day? I mean sit-down meals, not snacks. Jim: Well, I nearly always oversleep. I usually skip breakfast altogether. And I’d probably just have a chocolate bar for lunch. So I don’t sit down to a meal till evening.Jane: OK. Typical student, I suppose. And how about fresh fruit? Is it important in your diet?Jim: Nah, not really. I know it’s bad, but…I’m just not in the habit really. I suppose I might eat an apple once in a while.1. Hamburgers fries2. Chinese3. cabbage4. skipped5. chocolate6. sit-down7. fruitFor ReferenceAA, suggest vegetables and fruit to your partner.You’re gaining weight soon. I think you should take more green vegetables and fruit.B, say you love meat the best.Don’t mention egetables or fruit. Meat is my favorite. I love it, so does my stomach.A, give your warning of eating fat.Listen, you’ll suffer from eating too much fat.B, say you know the importance of a balanced diet but just cannot change your eating habit.Man, I know a balanced diet is important. But I just can’t change my eating habit.A, stress the importance of a good diet again.Well, I don’t think you’ve ever tried to change it. You know, good diet means good health.B, show your impatience.I knooooow, nutritionistBA, ask the American friend about the Chinese food.Hi, Tony, how would you like these Chinese food, tofu and steamed fish?B, you find the food tastes strange.Well, it tastes…sort of strange. We don’t have stuffs cooked like this.A, ask what the Americans eat.So what do you usually have in America?B, tell what the Americans typically eat and invite A to McDonald’s next time.Er, a typical lunch may consist of a burger or sandwish, a vegetable or fruit salad, a dessert, and a coke or coffee. Nect time I would invite you to a fast food meal at McDonald’s and tell you more about American food.A, say what you fell about B’s words.Oh, that’s really different from ours.VI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingTask 1: Foods in the WorldFood is national and international. Many people like their own national dishes and a variety of foreign ones. You can find European and Oriental restaurants on most large cities. You can find Italian, French, Chinese, and Mexican restaurants in New York, Washington, San Francisco, and many other cities in the United States. As well, you might also find Greek and Middle Eastern restaurants in some cities in the US. American hamburgers and hot dogs are popular in Tokyo and Paris. In almost every country you will find rice, potatoes, eggs, bread, soup, meat, vegetables, milk, fruit, and other basic foods. People all over cook them differently in different countries. People all over the world also prefer different things to drink. The English drink a lot of tea, and the French a lot of wine. Americans prefer coffee, milk or pop. German beer is now completely international. Children are often very conservative about new foods. In the United States they often prefer to eat the same three or four favorite dishes: hamburgers and French fires, hot dogs, fried chicken, and ice cream.1. national international2. national dishes foreign ones.3. hamburgers hotdogs Paris4. tea coffee milk pop5. children three or four hamburgers fried chickenTask 2: GM FoodsThe term GM foods refers to those produced with the latest genetic engineering techniques. In 2000, countries that grew 99% of the global GM crops were the United States, Argentina, Canada, and China. The next decade will see rapid development in Gm products. Gm foods may solve many of the world’s hunger problems, and help protect environment. Yet there are many challenges ahead for governments, especially in the areas of human and environmental safety, labeling and consumer choice, ethics, food security, regulation and international policy. Many people feel that genetic engineering is inevitable and that such a technology should be put to use. However, others warn that we must take care to avoid causing unintentional harm to both human health and the environment as a result of our enthusiasm for this powerful technology.1. F2.F3.T4.F5.FTask 3: HungerI have known bread hunger,Yet have I strength.I have known heart hunger,Yet do I live.I have known soul hunger,And faith is not dead.When the body cried,I lit love in my heart.When the heart wept,I lit a lamp in my soul.Yet all the while,I heard life asking its goal.I was alone looking out of a house,Knowing the empty rooms.。

As a result ofPart 6 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)(每小题:分)Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage or dialog.The AIDS virus is carried in a person's body fluids (体液). The virus can be passed during sex with an infected partner or by sharing instruments used to take intravenous (静脉注射的) drugs. It can also be passed in blood or fluids made from blood or from a pregnant (怀孕的) woman with AIDS to her developing baby.Many stories about the spread of AIDS are false. You cannot get AIDS from working or attending school with someone who has the disease. You cannot get it from drinking glasses or other objects used by such persons. Officials say no one has caught AIDS by living with, caring for, or touching an AIDS patient.There are several warning signs of being infected with AIDS. They include always feeling tired, unexplained (无法解释的) weight loss, and uncontrolled expulsion (排泄) of body wastes. Other warning signs are the appearance of white areas on the mouth, dark red areas of skin that do not go away, and a higher than normal body temperature.However, just because you have one or more of these conditions does not mean you have AIDS. Always go to a doctor or health center for a complete examination. The doctor may give you an AIDS blood test.When a virus enters the body, the body's defenses against disease produce antibodies (抗体) to fight the virus. The test shows if the body has produced antibodies to the AIDS virus. Results of the test are known after a few hours. The test tells only if your body has produced AIDS antibodies. It cannot tell if you have AIDS or if you will ever get the disease. In December (1988), the United States government approved (批准) a simpler and faster AIDS blood test. The newer test can confirm (证实) the presence (出现) of the AIDS antibodies in about five minutes.1.The AIDS virus can spread ___________.A. only from a man to womanB. among those who share drug instrumentsC. by shaking hands with someone who has the virusD. by touching an AIDS patient2.It is wrongly thought that ___________.A. the AIDS virus can be passed during sexB. the AIDS virus can spread from an expecting mother to her babyC. the AIDS virus can be passed by touching infected bloodD. one can get AIDS by working or attending school with someonewho has the disease3.The warning signs of being infected with AIDS do not include____________.A. weight lossB. uncontrolled expulsion of body wastesC. the appearance of red areas of skinD. a body temperature lower than a normal one4.If a person is worried that he might have AIDS, he should go to_____________.A. a government officeB. a defense systemC. an antibody production centerD. a doctor or health center5._________ can show if one has AIDS.A. Whether one has a defense method against AIDSB. Whether one has unexplained weight lossC. Whether the AIDS antibodies are produced in the bodyD. The doctor's complete examinationQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.In the United States, about 750,000 persons have suffered from AIDS. More than one half of them have died.But doctors say evidence (证据) also shows there is no reason for persons to become terrified (惊吓) by the disease. The AIDS virus is spread during sex with an infected partner, or by infected blood. But doctors say their studies show the disease is not spread through normal, close social activities.A study by one research team was printed in the New England Journal (杂志) of Medicine. The doctors studied 101 family members who lived with AIDS and lived in crowded conditions. The family members shared many personal goods with the patients. These included toothbrushes, drinking glasses, beds, towels, and toilets.Doctors said only one family member—a five-year-old girl—got the AIDS virus. They note, however, that the girl's mother had the disease. They believe the girl probably was born with the virus. No other family member in the study got the AIDS virus or showed any signs of the disease.The head of the study, Gerald Friedland, said if the disease is not easily spread in crowded homes, it also will not spread easily in factories, offices, schools, and other public places. Doctor Friedland said the study also shows there is no reason to punish AIDS patients and to force them to live separately from other persons.American health officials recently warned, however, that some health care workers should take special care. The report noted the AIDS virus is carried in blood and other body fluids. It said health care workers should put protective (保护性的) covers over their eyes and skin during medical operations, dental (牙科的) work, or other times when the patient may bleed.In the United States, most AIDS patients are homosexual (同性恋的) men, people taking drugs who used infected needles (针头), and people who received infected blood. More recent studies show the AIDS virus also canbe spread during heterosexual (异性的) relations. It can spread either fromthe man to the woman or from the woman to the man.6.Doctors say there is no reason for people to be frightened aboutAIDS because _________.A. it is not deadlyB. few people are infected with AIDSC. the AIDS virus is not spread in everyday social activities.D. the AIDS virus is not spread during sex7.The study of 101 family members who lived with AIDS patientsshows that ________.A. AIDS is not spread by using the same personal itemsB. women are more likely to get the AIDS virus than menC. married men are less likely to get AIDS than unmarried onesD. the AIDS virus is passed by drinking glasses8.According to Doctor Friedland, there is no reason to _______.A. stop meeting AIDS patientsB. stop living with AIDS patientsC. fear that AIDS can be passed from a mother to a babyD. fear that the AIDS virus can be passed during sex9.Health workers were warned to take special care when the patientbleeds because _______.A. AIDS can be passed by touching the patient's bodyB. AIDS can be spread by touching the patient's skinC. the AIDS virus can be carried in blood or other body fluidsD. the health care workers may be infected by the blood10._______ are least likely to be infected with the AIDS disease.A. People who use drugsB. Persons who offer infected blood to othersC. Men who are gayD. Married menQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage or dialog.Everyone knows what happens when you catch a cold. First you get a sore (疼痛的) throat. Then you sneeze (打噴嚏). After coughing and blowing your way through the next few days, it's over... until the next time.Every year 69% of Canadians will suffer at least one cold. Colds are responsible for a great deal of lost time at work and at school.There is no known cure for the common cold. Once you catch a cold, your body usually makes antibodies (抗体) against the virus. These antibodies help the body develop a resistance (抵抗力) to the virus if you catch it again. Unfortunately, the common cold is caused by over 200 different viruses. The large number of viruses and the fact that they change help explain why there is no cure for the common cold. Adults, who have been exposed (遭受) to more viruses, tend to suffer fewer colds than children. The occurrence of colds tends to increase in the winter but NOT because of the cold! Cold weather has not been shown to increase the number of colds. People spend more time indoors in winter. They are therefore more likely to come into physical contact with each other and spread the disease.Common colds are spread by sneezes or by direct contact with a cold sufferer. Sneezing spreads colds when someone sneezes near other people, or sneezes on objects which others later touch. Once the virus is on someone's hand, and the unsuspecting (毫无戒心的) victim touches his or her nose or eyes, the virus is spread and trouble begins.The simplest and most effective way to lower the risk of catching a cold isto wash your hands frequently.11.At the very beginning of the passage, the writer talks about________.A. what a cold is likeB. what a cold virus is likeC. how to cure a coldD. how to prevent a cold from spreading12.There is no cure for the common cold because ________.A. the nature of colds remains unknownB. the large number of cold viruses keeps changingC. your body can't develop antibodiesD. your resistance isn't strong enough13.Which of the following products would have increased sales if morepeople became aware of the real reason for the spread of colds?A. Sweaters (毛衣).B. Paper napkins (餐巾).C. Soap.D. Bottles of water.14.People are more likely to catch a cold if they ________.A. go outside in the cold winterB. talk to those who once had colds。
