The passage is most probably taken from _________.A. a magazineB. a newspaperC. a travel bookD. a websiteBHave you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it? Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain power? Start writing.By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand. Often, explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your “explaining power”.Try this experiment. Explain how you’ll increase your brain power, even if you have no idea how right now. Just start with anything, and create an explanation. For example, start with “I’ll learn chess” or “I’ll read an article on the mind every week.”Explain how that will help. You’ll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan, and if you actually do this, you’ll have a better understanding of your brain twenty minutes from now.Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many, if not most, highly productive（多产的）people are always taking notes. You can try keeping things all in your head, but if you keep a journal（日志）of your ideas next time you’re working on a big project, you’ll probably have more success.Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. That’s an extreme example, but if you are learning something new, write a letter to a friend about it, and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem — why you want to solve it, and why it is worth solving, and you’re halfway there.Writers don’t always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often, they write about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to all understanding. Give it a try.73. According to the text, writing can help you a lot in the following ways EXCEPT _______.A. developing your interest in studyB. understanding a topic betterC. increasing your brain powerD. increasing your ability to remember74. The underlined sentence “You’re hallway there” in the sixth paragraph implies that ________.A. you still need to work hardB. writing can help you walk halfwayC. writing is important to solve problemD. you are almost successful75. What’s the main purpose of the writer writing the text?A. To advise reader to become writers.B. To incre ase readers’ brain power.C. To explain the importance of writing.D. To advise readers to start their writing.第四部分：根据文章内容或首字母提示填空, 每空一词。

On the fourth night, I sat beside him and 41 him to tell me what he feels about 42.It has been years since I have laid my hand on my father's shoulder as we have drifted apart(疏远) farther and farther while I was 43 up.

Reading comprehension(30 points)AToday, people are more conscious about their health and want to get a well-toned body shape. This is because when we are in good shape, it makes us feel fit and healthy. We feel good about ourselves and feel much more confident than before. When you want to tone up your body, just workouts will not do. You have to take care of your overall health by eating proper food, doing the right kind of exercises and keeping yourselfThe first thing that needs to be done is to reduce the intake of calories. The calorie content of each meal should not be higher than 400 calories. Ideally, one is well advised to have six meals in a day. There should be a gap of three hours between each meal. Fresh vegetables, fruits, egg white, fish, chicken, breast are some of the food that can provide you with the right nutrients, at the same time will help you to get in shape.Many people make the mistake of avoiding strength training when they are trying for weight loss. They think that strength training will increase their body weight. However, this is not true. Be careful not to over exercise in order to lose weight fast. Too much of exercise can cause damage to you.Drinking 8-10 glasses of water can help in reducing fat. If you drink ice cold water, then it will burn out some extra calories from your body. This is because when you are drinking cold water, your body needs to raise the temperature of the water up to your body temperature. In this process, almost one calorie of fat gets burned from the body. Drinking a glass of water before a meal will be helpful in this regard.You can get a healthy body only if your mind is free from stress. Stress can also lead to other health problems like high blood pressure, upset stomach, headaches, etc. For all these reasons, special efforts need to be taken to relax your mind.56. How often is one advised to have a meal in a day?A. Every three hours.B. Every four hours.C. Every five hours.D. Every six hours.57. Why do many people avoid strength training?A. Because they think it helps reduce stress.B. Because they think it can help reduce fat.C. Because they think it makes them put on weight.D. Because they think it may cause damage.58. Drinking cold water burns out more calories because _______.A. it needs warming up to fit your body temperatureB. it has fewer calories than hot waterC. it does not boil before you drinkD. you can drink it quickly than hot water59. What does the passage try to tell us?A. How to reduce intake of fat.B. How to get free from stress.C. How to lose body weight.D. How to get in a right shape.BMom was a teacher most of her life. When she wasn’t in the classroom, she was educating her children or grandchildren: correcting our grammar; starting us on collections of butterflies, flowers or rocks; or inspiring a discussion on her most recent “Book of the Month Club” topic. Mom made learning fun.It was sad for my three brothers and me to see her illness in her later years. At eighty-five, she suffered a stroke(中风) and she went steadily(不断地) downhill after that.Two days before she died, my brothers and I met at her nursing home and took her for a short ride in a wheelchair. While we waited for the staff to lift her limp body back into bed, Mom fell asleep. Not wanting to wake her, we moved to the far end of the room and spoke softly.After several minutes our conversation was interrupted by a muffled sound coming from across the room. We stopped talking and looked at Mom. Her eyes were closed, but she was clearly trying to communicate with us. We went to her side.“Whirr,” she said weakly.“Where?” I asked. “Mom, is there something you want?” “Whirr,” she repeated a bit stronger. My brothers and I looked at each other and shook our heads sadly.Mom opened her eyes, sighed, and with all the energy she could gather said, “Not was, say were!”It suddenly occurred to us that Mom was correcting brother Jim’s last sentence. “If it was up to me…”Jim leaned down and kissed her cheek. “Thanks, Mom,” he whispered. We smiled at each other and once again shook our heads…this time in awe (敬畏) of a remarkable teacher.60. When Mom said, “Whirr”, what did she really want to do?A. She wanted to tell her sons her will.B. She wanted to have something to eat before she died.C. She wanted to correct the mistakes Jim made while talking.D. She wanted to teach her sons more because she was dying.61. Which of the following statements is NOT right?A. Mom was a good teacher and never wanted to stop her teaching.B. Mom was always making her teaching fun.C. Mom did n’t forget her teaching until she died.D. Mom was no longer a teacher when she was at home.62. What does the writer think of his mother?A. He loved her but was tired of his mother’s teaching at home.B. His mother should forget her teaching and enjoyed the rest of her life.C. His mother was great because she devoted herself to teaching.D. His mother was an excellent teacher before she was retired.63. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A. Once a teacher, always a teacherB. Mo m’s willC. A teacher’s lifeD.A teacher’s devotionCParents say that honesty is the best policy, but they regularly lie to their children as a way of influencing their behavior and emotions, finds new research from the University of Toronto and the University of California.Surprisingly little has been published on the subject of parental lying, so Gail Heyman, professor of psychology at the University of California, Diem Luu, a former student of the University of California, and Kang Lee, professor at the University Toronto, set out to explore the under researched phenomenon(现象). They asked USparticipants in two related studies about parents lying to their children —either for the purpose of promoting （提升）appropriate behavior(行为) or to make them happy.In one of the studies, many parents reported they told their young children that bad things would happen if they didn't go to bed or eat what they were supposed to. Other parents reported inventing magical creatures. One explained, “We told our daughter that if she wrapped up(包起来) all her pacifiers (橡皮奶嘴) like gifts, the fair would come and give them to the children who needed them.”In the other study, the researchers surveyed(调查) college students' recollections about their parents' lying and obtained(get) similar results: parents often lie to their children even as they tell them that lying is unacceptable.The researchers refer to this practice as “parenting by lying”. “We are surprised by how often parenting by lying takes place,” said LEE. Though Heyman thinks that there are occasions(times) when it is appropriate to be less than truthful with a child, she urges parents to think through the issues and consider alternatives(other ways) before using lies.“Children sometimes behave in ways that are disruptive(分裂的) or are likely to harm their long term interests,”said Heyman. “It is common for them to try out a range of strategies(策略), including lying, to stop them. However, parents should be concerned about the possible long term negative consequences(result) to children's beliefs about honesty.”64.

What does Heyman think of parental lying?A. It is a great parenting strategy.B. Parents should think twice before using it.C. It usually does more good than harm.D. Parents should do something to make up for it after using it.67. In which part of a newspaper would you most probably find the passage?A. Business.B. Education.C. Technology.D. Fashion.DHere’s a movie—a sharp, sugar-rush of fun that’s guaranteed to entertain the entire family.With some terrific computer-generated effects, a great cast and a fun-packed storyline, Robots is the best animated film (动画片) since The Incredibles. Yep, it really is that good.Set in a world populated by robots, Ewan McGregor plays Rodney Copperbottom, a young robot who leaves his small-town home to pursue his dream of becoming an inventor. But after arriving in Robot City, his hopes of getting a job at Bigweld Industries are destroyed when he learns the firm has been taken over by the evil Ratchet (Greg Kinnear).Egged on by his controlling mum, Madame Gasket (Jim Broadbent), Ratchet plans to reduce half of Robot City’s citizens to scrap metal by refusing to sell the spare parts they need to survive.Instead, he wants to make a fortune selling expensive upgrades that few can afford. As he says, “Why be you when you can be new?”Aided by a few misfit robots known as the Rustles—including Robin Williams as the cowardly' (胆小的）Fender (“I’m made of a metal called Afraidium”)—Rodney must track down the firm’s founder, Bigwel d (Mel Brooks), and convince him to save the city from Ratchet’s plans.The first thing that’ll strike you about the movie is the thought that's gone into creating Robot City. It’s a wondrous world full of mechanical marvels including wind-up cars and walking streetlamps.Also terrific are the special effects. This might be an animated movie but attimes you’ll catch yourself thinking it’s really a live-action film.Of course, there have been plenty of animated movies that looked the part but were let down by a weak storyline (see Shark Tale, for example).But Robots grips (扣人心弦) right from the start thanks to a heart-warming and thoroughly engaging plot that never bores.My only complaints are with Williams who, as usual，has a one-in-10 success rate with his jokes. Also a letdown is a romantic subplot between Rodney and a shapely robot called Cappy (Halle Berry) that doesn’t go anywhere.Complains aside, this is a mechanical marvel that’ll have you bolted firmly to your seat.BEST QUOTE(引述): Fender: “Even though you had a discouraging day, just remember there’s another one coming tomorrow.”BEST BIT: Check out those amazing images.WORST BIT: Robin Williams, character does an unfunny Britney Spears dance routine.IF YOU LIKED…Ice Age, The Incredibles, Toy Story... YOU’LL LIKE THIS.68. This piece of writing is a _______.A. commercial advertisementB. film reviewC. movie posterD. literary essay69. The cast of Robots is made up of all the following actors or actresses EXCEPT _______.A. Ewan McGregorB. Robin WilliamsC. Britney SpearsD. Halle Berry70. What is Shark Tale an example of?A. A great castB. A poor plotC. Special effectsD. Clumsy animation第二部分：主观题部分(满分35分)V. Task-reading(10 points)Educating girls quite possibly harvests a higher rate of return than any other investment available in the developing world. Women's education may be an unusual economical field, but increasing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue. And economics, with its focus on encouragement, provides an explanation for why so many girls are rid of an education.Parents in low-income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family: girls grow up only to marry into somebody else's family and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school -- the prophecy (观念) becomes self-fulfilling, trapping women in a vicious (恶性的) circle of neglect.An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance. The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, as well as of boys, will be educated and healthy. The vicious circle is thus transformed into a virtuous circle.Few will argue that educating women has great social benefits. But it has enormous economic advantages as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year of schooling. Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments, but they are just the beginning. Educating women also has a significant effect on health practices, including family planning.Topic: The significance of female (1) in developing countriesVI. Word spelling (10 points)1. I’ve been __________ (努力) to understand his article all the afternoon.2. Climbing Mount Everest is a c______________ task to all mountain climbers.3.

The passage is most probably taken from _________.A. a magazineB. a newspaperC. a travel bookD. a websiteBHave you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it? Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain power? Start writing.By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand. Often, explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your “explaining power”.Try this experiment. Explain how you’ll increase your brain power, even if you have no idea how right now. Just start with anything, and create an explanation. For example, start with “I’ll learn chess” or “I’ll read an article on the mind every week.”Explain how that will help. You’ll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan, and if you actually do this, you’ll have a better understanding of your brain twenty minutes from now.Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many, if not most, highly productive（多产的）people are always taking notes. You can try keeping things all in your head, but if you keep a journal（日志）of your ideas next time you’re working on a big project, you’ll probably have more success.Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. That’s an extreme example, but if you are learning something new, write a letter to a friend about it, and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem — why you want to solve it, and why it is worth solving, and you’re halfway there.Writers don’t always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often, they write about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to all understanding. Give it a try.73. According to the text, writing can help you a lot in the following ways EXCEPT _______.A. developing your interest in studyB. understanding a topic betterC. increasing your brain powerD. increasing your ability to remember74. The underlined sentence “You’re hallway there” in the sixth paragraph implies that ________.A. you still need to work hardB. writing can help you walk halfwayC. writing is important to solve problemD. you are almost successful75. What’s the main purpose of the writer writing the text?A. To advise reader to become writers.B. To incre ase readers’ brain power.C. To explain the importance of writing.D. To advise readers to start their writing.第四部分：根据文章内容或首字母提示填空, 每空一词。

Mockingbird，published in 1960.Immediately successful，it won the 1961 Pulitzer Prize and has become a classic of modern American literature.In 1991 an organization conducted a survey that madereaders identify books that had “made a difference” in their lives.The result? Lee's book trailed only The Bible.Alongside the works of Shakespeare and Twain，this novel remains one of the most widely taught books nationwide，reaching about 70% of American public schools.What makes it such a typical read for young people?English class is a place where young Americans come to know themselves.In the folds of dusty books，students can make contact with humanity beyond the shallow small talk of the school hallways.Disturbed by hormones and anxiety，teenagers get through school with confusion and frustration.Literature is a safety valve(安全阀)—it promises relief，a place to figure out one's problems and get to know oneself better.The novel particularly distinguishes itself in this aspect.It speaks in a child's voice without treating its readership as children.Some critics have called it an “impossible”achievement，a children's book penned by a welleducated adult—it's unlikely that a child like Scout could exist in the real world.But that's exactly what makes it such a charming，attractive read for young people.It indicates the consciousness of a welleducated adult facing difficult realities，but describes it through the light and playful voice of a curious little girl.Gaby Hick，a thirdyear student focused on English literature at Brown University，calls it “one of the first books that kids and young adults read and that deal with serious issues—rape，race，mental issues”．She adds，“The story makes these adult themes accessible because of Scout.”The book's setting，a small town in Alabama affected by the Great Depression of the 1930s，may appear very different from the experience of most kids reading it today.But Lee's words make her story feel alive and present.In 2006，however，critic Thomas Mallon expressed his regret about the book's avoiding moral complexity in The Ne w Yorker.But her novel makes a great teaching tool for teenagers precisely because its moral view is as clear as that of one of Aesop's fables.That absence of ambiguity in this novel doesn't mean the novel is free of challenging ideas，either.Will Serratelli，another literature student at Brown says，“There aren't many hard moral questions being asked...but it opens up all these other questions that I hadn't thought about before.My English teachers always asked，‘Doyou sympathize with this character? Would you want to hang out with them? ’When you give a kid a book where those questions don't even need to be asked，it_forces_them_to_dig_deeper.”Mallon's criticism is accurate in that this novel may present too limited a view of racism in America.That's especially problematic because it is one of the only books consistently assigned to American students that acknowledge racial discrimination at all.However，To Kill a Mockingbird may owe some of its popularity as a teaching text to the fact that the narrative voice is a white one.Naomi Varnis，an African Studies student at Brown says，“It's another practice of telling stories about black people through white central characters.”While the novel is undoubtedly worth its place in the classroom，English teachers may do well to consider that it is a white author's perspective—and ought to be the only beginning of a dialogue about race and never the final word.But as a gateway to more mature ideas，and as a YA(young adult)distillation(提炼)of complex concepts young people may not have grasped before，Lee's novel is invaluable. 36．According to the passage，the novel To Kill a Mockingbird can help us ________．A．know more about the past U．S.economic situationB．understand what the real personality of humans isC．reduce much anxiety for fear of losing ourselvesD．find and deal with some other complicated questions37．What does the underlined word “trailed” most probably mean in Paragraph 1?A．Was as good as.B．Tried hard to defeat.C．Went along the same route as.D．Had a lower score than.38．What can we conclude from Will Serratelli's statement underlined in Paragraph 5?A．The kids are motivated to think further.B．The kids have to face more moral questions.C．The kids tend to sympathize with the characters.D．The kids are unwilling to answer challenging questions.39．Why is the novel well received by teenagers in the U．S.?A．Because it reveals racial discrimination in America.B．Because it makes some serious adult issues accessible.C．Because a white author tells the stories about black people.D．Because it is widely used as a tool for moral judgements in society.40．Who points out straight the shortcoming of the novel?A．Thomas Mallon. B．Naomi Varnis.C．Will Serratelli. D．Gaby Hick.41．What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A．To tell us about the content of the novel.B．To introduce some different comments.C．To explain the reasons for its popularity.D．To approve of the creative writing style.参考答案一、单项选择1.A[考查动词时态和语态。

Researchers have shown that when a person falls in love,a dozen different part of brain work together to release chemicals that trigger feelings of euphoria,bonding and excitement.It has also been shown that the unc onditional love between a mother and a child is associated with activity in different regions of the brain from those associated with pair-bonding love.Passionate love is rooted in the reward circuitry of the brain—the same area that is active when humans feel a rush from cocaine.In fact,the desire,motivations and withdrawals involved in love have a great deal in common with addiction. Its most intense forms tend to be associated with the early stages of a relationship,which then give way to a calmer attachment form of love one feels with a long term partner.What all this means is that one special person can become chemically rewarding to the brain of another.Love at first sight,then,is only possible if the mechanism for generating long-term attachment can be triggered quickly.There are signs that it can be.One line of evidence is that people are able to decide within a second how attractive they find another person. This decision appears to be related to facial attractiveness,although men may favor women with waist-to-hip ratio of0.7,no matter what their overall weight is.(This ratio may indicate a woman’s reproductive health.)Another piece of evidence comes from work by a psychologist at Ben-Gurion University,who found in a survey that a small percentage(11%)of people in long-term relationships said that they began with love at first sight.In other words,in some couples the initial favorable impressions of attractiveness triggered love which sustained a lengthy bond.It is also clear that some couples need to form their bonds over a longer period,and popular culture tells many tales of friends who become lovers.One might also assume that if a person is looking for a partner with traits that cannot be quantified instantly,such as compassion,intellect or a good sense of humor,then it would be hard to form a relationship on the basis of love at first sight. Those more concerned with visual appearances,though,might find this easier.So it appears that love at first sight exists,but is not a very common basis for long-term relationships.58.When a person falls in love,_____________.A.he feels as if he were addicted to cocaine.B.he will be committed to the beloved as long as necessary.C.he will experience complex feelings brought on by different regions of his brain.D.he will experience a calmer attachment form of love before he feels the extreme love.59.We can infer from the passage that________.A.pair-bonding love comes from a long stable friendship.B.the mechanism for creating long-term attachment ensures love at first sightC.it is impossible for those ordinary-looking people to fall in love at first sight.D.men may be attracted by a girl whose figure suggests her admirable reproductive capacity.60.The underlined word“traits”in the last paragraph probably means______.A.characteristicsB.something typical in your temperC.particular quantities in your personalityD.attitudes that show your moral standards61.Which of the following may be the best title of the passage?A.The stages of passionate loveB.The science of love at first sightC.The biological construct of pair-bondingD.The mechanism for generating long-term loveCElectronic sensors built into paper could be used in a range of ways from information storage to touch screens and more.Electronic sensors built into cartons（纸盒）may make it easier to tell when it’s time to throw out rotten milk or orange juice.And that’s just the start.At least that’s the goal for researchers working on putting electronics into paper.They’re trying to figure out how to combine the flexibility,low-cost and recyclability of paper with the information-carrying ability of electronics.Daniel Torbjork,a physics graduate student in Finland,has been working on the problem.He’s published a review of the field in the journal Advanced Materials.Much research has been focused in this area.While most electronic applications require patterned conducting structures, conductive paper could be used in applications such as energy storage devices,sensors,electric heaters and others, according to Torbjork.“You could even have some interactive functions in magazines,”Torbjork said,“You could put a simple game in a package.If you want a touch screen,press a button and then something happen.Sensors in paper could tell us when something has gone bad.”Additional applications,such as information storage and security paper,have been suggested for magnetic papers containing magnetite.In Massachusetts,researchers have figured out how to post a video of such a device put into a paper airplane.German researchers have also put electronic chips in paper bank notes to defend counter-feiters（造伪币者）.Paper is a good material but printing electronics also requires low-cost manufacturing.As many US and European paper makers lose market share to cheaper paper from China,these big paper companies are looking for added value products.That’s where electronic paper devices could make a difference.“The major obstacles are paper’s large surface roughness and chemical impurities.”Torbjork says.But others in the field think that electronic sensors in paper are still far from the consumer marketplace.“I don’t think it’s going to happen.”said Roy Horgan.“You need a conductive surface.It could be10years out.What we are looking for are solutions that you can commercialize to-day.”Solar Print is partnering with Italian automaker Fiat to develop a unique auto-glass with tiny photostatic cells（光电）that can capture electricity from the sun.In the meantime,using paper to conduct electricity is still a“blue-sky”project.“I would love to see someone prove me wrong,because that means that it’s actually happening.”Horgan said.“If someone comes up with conductive paper,then that’s a very interesting technology.”62.Putting electronics into paper will________.A.cut the cost and impurity of paperB.depend on flexible conductive structureC.help consume rotten milk or orange juicebine the advantages of paper and electronics63.Paragraphs4to7mainly talk about the________of the conductive paper.A.practical useB.theoriesC.structuresD.design process64.Some paper makers welcome the new technology probably because it will________.A.put an end to fake moneyB.make the paper smootherC.add more value to paperD.improve the printing technology65.From the passage,we know that Roy Horgan________.A.has a burning desire to make a great profitB.showed much interest in Solar Print industryC.is not confident about the conductive paperD.started a“blue-sky”project to study paperDMotion pictures are so much a part of our lives that it’s hard to imagine a world without them.We enjoy them in theatres,at home,in offices,in cars and buses,and on airplanes.①For about100years,people have been trying to understand why this medium has so attracted us.Films communicate information and ideas,and they show us places and ways of life we might not otherwise know.Important as the benefits are,though,something more is at stake.Films offer us ways of seeing and feeling that we find deeply satisfying. They take us through experiences.The experiences are often driven by stories,with characters we come to care about,but a film might also develop an idea or explore visual qualities or sound textures.A film takes us on a journey,offering a patterned experience that engages our minds and emotions.②Films are designed to have effects on te in the19th century,moving pictures emerged as a public amusement.They succeeded because they spoke to the imaginative needs of a broad-based audience.All the traditions that emerged－telling fictional stories,recording actual events,animating objects or pictures,experimenting with pure form－aimed to give viewers experiences they couldn’t get from other media.The men and women who made films discovered that they could control aspects of cinema to give their audience richer,more engaging experiences.Learning from one another,expanding and refining the options available,filmmakers developed skills that became the basis of film as an art form.③The popular origins of cinema suggest that some common ways of talking won’t help us much in understanding film.Take the distinction between art and entertainment.Some people would say that blockbusters(大片)playing at the multiplex are merely“entertainment”,whereas films for a narrower public－perhaps independent films for festival fare,or specialized experimental works－are true ually the art/entertainment split carries a not-so-hi dden value judgment: art is high-brow,whereas entertainment is superficial.Yet things aren’t that simple.As we just indicated,many of the artistic resources of cinema were discovered by filmmakers working for the general public.During the1910s and1920s,for instance,many films that aimed only to be entertaining opened up new possibilities for film editing.As for the matter ofvalue,it’s clear that popular traditions can promote art of high quality.Cinema is an art because it offers filmmakers ways to design experiences for viewers,and those experiences can be valuable.④Sometimes,too,people treat film art as opposed to film as a business.This split is related to the issue of entertainment,since entertainment generally is sold to a mass audience.Again,however,in most modern societies,no art floats free of economic ties.Novels good,bad,or indifferent are published because publishers expect to sell them.Painters hope that collectors and museums will acquire their work.True,some artworks are funded through taxes or private donations,but that process,too,involves the artist in a financial transaction(交易).Films are no different.Others are funded by patronage or public moneys.Even if you decide to make your own digital movie,you face the problem of paying for it－and you may hope to earn a little extra for all your time and effort.The crucial point is that considerations of money don’t necessarily make the artist any less creative or the project any less w orthwhile.Money can corrupt any line of business(consider politics),but it doesn’t have to.In Renaissance Italy, painters were commissioned by the Catholic church to illustrate events from the Bible.Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci worked for hire,but it would be hard to argue that it hurt their artistry.Here we won’t assume that film art prevents entertainment.We won’t take the opposite position either－claiming that only Hollywood mass-market movies are worth attention.Similarly,we don’t think that film art rises above commercial demand,but we also won’t assume that money rules everything.Any art form offers a vast range of creative possibilities. Our basic assumption is that as an art,film offers experiences that viewers find worthwhile.66.Where should the sentence“It doesn’t happen by accident.”be put in the passage?A.①B.②C.③D.④67.Which of the following statements about film is TRUE?A.Hollywood films are usually far more appealing.B.Film offers a wide variety of creative possibilities.C.Films are made in the hope that consumers will pay to see them.D.When watching films,viewers feel controlled by film designers.68.The writer uses the examples of Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci to______.A.indicate that money is unlikely to corrupt artistryB.show that money doesn’t necessarily destroy artistryC.prove that money cannot buy everything in the field of artD.suggest that money is an important concern even for famous artists69.According to the writer,film should______A.avoid concentrating on popular traditionsB.focus on artistry rather than entertainmentC.provide the audience with something worthwhileD.earn enough to pay for the developers’time and effort70.Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage?A.Film:art or businessB.Art or entertainmentC.Film offers us experiencesD.Money doesn’t rule everything第四部分任务型阅读（10分）Commercial advertisement was once thought of as a technique of the marketers to inform the potential buyers aboutthe availability of certain products.It was seen more as a medium to inform the buyers rather than persuade them to buy. The present day marketers see advertisement as a medium to damage the image of their competitors and their products.This indeed,is an undesirable and an immoral practice.Instead of speaking about their own products,these marketers speak about the drawbacks(often without any basics)of the competing products.People watching TV advertisements would notice that there has always been an advertisement war between the marketers of different consumer goods.A few such cases are given below.1.Parachute Coconut Oil vs.V.V.D.GoldSometime back,the producer of V.V.D Gold Coconut Oil claimed in their TV advertisement that only their products were superior and the one sold in blue colour bottles(the reference was to Parachute coconut oil)was suitable only for un-natural hair.2.Tata Salt vs.Captain CookTata salt was first iodised(碘处理)salt marketed by an Indian Company.It has been enjoying a good and steady market.Captain Cook,another producer of iodised salt,who entered the market later,had to adopt some strategy to get control of the market.The TV advertisement of Captain Cook stressed on‘Free flow’of their salt when transferred to a container.The producer of Tata Salt retaliated(报复)by saying that the claim of Captain Cook was a trick and those who were quality conscious should deal with it with caution.3.Pepsi vs.Coca ColaCoca Cola was selected as the official soft drink for the Wills World Cricket1996.When the cricket series was on,the marketers of Pepsi constantly advertised on TV.Their advertisement gave the idea that the cricketers preferred only Pepsi and as a matter of fact there was nothing official about it.4.Horlicks planSometime back,the TV advertisement of Complan,a health drink directly attacked Horlicks,which has been in the market for several decades.The claim of Complan was that their brand(which according to them was Brand C)has a higher percentage of ingredients compared to Brand H(reference was nothing but to Horlicks).The above examples clearly show how the technique of advertisement is misused by some marketers to ruin the image of their competitors.This,certainly,is not a healthy trend.Any marketer should only speak about his products and not about his competitors’products.The awareness of consumers has certainly increased over the years and they are no longer easily taken in.There are many consumer products like salt,oil,shaving blades etc.But one thing for sure is that offering the same product in a different container will not make the product different.Mass media like Radio,Television and newspaper should not allow advertisements that tell lies.Legal regulations,in this regard,should also be made stricter.Comparison of the past and the presentIn the past A technique mainly used for offering(71)At present A trick used as a means of unfai r(72)Unhealthy trend of the(73)of advertisement(74)Products Wrong(75)V.V.D.Gold No product of the kind could(76)it.Captain CookCaptain Cook stressed on their“free flow”when their product was put into acontainer.Tata Salt Tata salt warned consumers to be(77).PepsiToo much advertisement on TV seemed to say that Pepsi was the cricketers’(78).ComplanComplan claimed that their product was much(79)in ingredients.Solutions ●Only products of their own are allowed to be(80)in the advertisement.●Stricter laws should be made to protect every producer’s and consumer’s benefits.第五部分书面表达（25分）The Ministry of Education recently released a statement encouraging middle schools to provide Wi-Fi coverage for their students.Do you think middle school campuses should be covered with Wi-Fi?Sheng Junjie,17:In my opinion,Wi-Fi should cover campuses.The Internet contains an enormous amount of information.If Wi-Fi could be used on campus,it would be more convenient for students to surf the Internet connection had a positive influence on students’studying,the school could work out technical tools to guide them.Han Xu,17:Personally,I think that Wi-Fi coverage is not a good thing.Everyone would agree that not all information on the Internet is reliable.Students would be likely to come across awful things like false information,even violence and fraud,on the school Wi-Fi network.It would have a bad influence on the growth of students,and may even lead to more serious problems.【写作内容】1.用约30个单词概述上述信息的主要内容；2.结合上述信息，就“中学校园是否要覆盖无线网络”这个话题发表你的看法，并说明理由。

him as a（n）（39）father．For three days he wouldn't talk．He would just sit（40）outside our house in the dark．On the fourth night，I sat beside him and（41）him to tell me what he feels about（42）．It has been years since I have laid my hand on my father's shoulder as we have drifted apart（疏远）farther and farther while I was（43）up．That night though，I sensed my father trying to（44）his pain and I wanted him to

shape．This is because when we are in good shape，it makes us feel fit and healthy．We feel good about ourselves and feel much more confident than before．When you want to tone up your body，just workouts will not do．You have to take care of your overall health by eating proper food，doing the right kind of exercises and keeping yourself happy．The first thing that needs to be done is to reduce the intake of calories．The calorie content of each meal should not be higher than 400calories．Ideally，one is well advised to have six meals in a day．There should be a gap of three hours between each meal．Fresh vegetables，fruits，egg white，fish，chicken，breast are some of the food that can provide you with the right nutrients，at the same time will help you to get in shape．Many people make the mistake of avoiding strength training when they are trying for weight loss．They think that strength training will increase their body weight．However，this is not true．Be careful not to over exercise in order to lose weight fast．Too much of exercise can cause damage to you．Drinking 8﹣10glasses of water can help in reducing fat．If you drink ice cold water，then it will burn out some extra calories from your body．This is because when you are drinking cold water，your body needs to raise the temperature of the water up toyour body temperature．In this process，almost one calorie of fat gets burned from the body．Drinking a glass of water before a meal will be helpful in this regard．You can get a healthy body only if your mind is free from stress．Stress can also lead to other health problems like high blood pressure，upset stomach，headaches，etc．For all these reasons，special efforts need to be taken to relax your mind．56．How often is one advised to have a meal in a day？A．Every three hours．B．Every four hours．C．Every five hours．D．Every six hours．57．Why do many people avoid strength training？A．Because they think it helps reduce stress．B．Because they think it can help reduce fat．C．Because they think it makes them put on weight．D．Because they think it may cause damage．58．Drinking cold water burns out more calories because．A．it needs warming up to fit your body temperatureB．it has fewer calories than hot waterC．it does not boil before you drinkD．you can drink it quickly than hot water59．What does the passage try to tell us？A．How to reduce intake of fat．B．How to get free from stress．C．How to lose body weight．D．How to get in a right shape．28．（8分）Mom was a teacher most of her life．When she wasn't in the classroom，she was educating her children or grandchildren：correcting our grammar；starting us on collections of butterflies，flowers or rocks；or inspiring a discussion on her most recent"Book of the Month Club"topic．Mom made learning fun．It was sad for my three brothers and me to see her illness in her later years．At eighty ﹣five，she suffered a stroke（中风）and she went steadily（不断地）downhill afterthat．Two days before she died，my brothers and I met at her nursing home and took her for a short ride in a wheelchair．While we waited for the staff to lift her limp body back into bed，Mom fell asleep．Not wanting to wake her，we moved to the far end of the room and spoke softly．After several minutes our conversation was interrupted by a muffled sound coming from across the room．We stopped talking and looked at Mom．Her eyes were closed，but she was clearly trying to communicate with us．We went to her side．"Whirr，"she said weakly．"Where？"I asked．"Mom，is there something you want？""Whirr，"she repeated a bit stronger．My brothers and I looked at each other and shook our heads sadly．Mom opened her eyes，sighed，and with all the energy she could gather said，"Not was，say were!"It suddenly occurred to us that Mom was correcting brother Jim's last sentence．"If it was up to me…"Jim leaned down and kissed her cheek．"Thanks，Mom，"he whispered．We smiled at each other and once again shook our heads…this time in awe （敬畏）of a remarkable teacher．60．When Mom said，"Whirr"，what did she really want to do？A．She wanted to tell her sons her will．B．She wanted to have something to eat before she died．C．She wanted to correct the mistakes Jim made while talking．D．She wanted to teach her sons more because she was dying．61．Which of the following statements is NOT right？A．Mom was a good teacher and never wanted to stop her teaching．B．Mom was always making her teaching fun．C．Mom didn't forget her teaching until she died．D．Mom was no longer a teacher when she was at home．62．What does the writer think of his mother？A．He loved her but was tired of his mother's teaching at home．B．His mother should forget her teaching and enjoyed the rest of her life．C．His mother was great because she devoted herself to teaching．D．His mother was an excellent teacher before she was retired．63．Which of the following is the best title of this passage？A．Once a teacher，always a teacher B．Mom's will C．A teacher's life D．A teacher's devotion．29．（8分）Parents say that honesty is the best policy，but they regularly lie to their children as a way of influencing their behavior and emotions，finds new research from the University of Toronto and the University of California．Surprisingly little has been published on the subject of parental lying，so Gail Heyman，professor of psychology at the University of California，Diem Luu，a former student of the University of California，and Kang Lee，professor at the University Toronto，set out to explore the under researched phenomenon（现象）．They asked US participants in two related studies about parents lying to their children﹣either for the purpose of promoting （提升）appropriate behavior（行为）or to make them happy．In one of the studies，many parents reported they told their young children that bad things would happen if they didn't go to bed or eat what they were supposed to．Other parents reported inventing magical creatures．One explained，"We told our daughter that if she wrapped up（包起来）all her pacifiers （橡皮奶嘴）like gifts，the fair would come and give them to the children who needed them．"In the other study，the researchers surveyed（调查）college students'recollections about their parents'lying and obtained（get）similar results：parents often lie to their children even as they tell them that lying is unacceptable．The researchers refer to this practice as"parenting by lying"．"We are surprised by how often parenting by lying takes place，"said LEE．Though Heyman thinks that there are occasions（times）when it is appropriate to be less than truthful with achild，she urges parents to think through the issues and consider alternatives（other ways）before using lies．"Children sometimes behave in ways that are disruptive（分裂的）or are likely to harm their long term interests，"said Heyman．"It is common for them to try out a range of strategies（策略），including lying，to stop them．However，parents should be concerned about the possible long term negative consequences（result）to children's beliefs about honesty．"64．The subject of parental lying．A．was not allowed to be researched in the pastB．attracts little attention because it is commonC．hasn't got many published results about itD．is becoming more and more popular65．The study of Gai Heyman，Diem Luu and Kang Lee was focused on parents'lies that．A．aim to cover their mistakesB．lead children to hate themC．aim to give children a positive influenceD．make children get used to lying66．What does Heyman think of parental lying？A．It is a great parenting strategy．B．Parents should think twice before using it．C．It usually does more good than harm．D．Parents should do something to make up for it after using it．67．In which part of a newspaper would you most probably find the passage？A．Business．B．Education．C．Technology．D．Fashion．30．（6分）Here's a movie﹣a sharp，sugar﹣rush of fun that's guaranteed to entertain the entire family．With some terrific computer﹣generated effects，a great cast and a fun﹣packedstoryline，Robots is the best animated film （动画片）since The Incredibles．Yep，it really is that good．Set in a world populated by robots，Ewan McGregor plays Rodney Copperbottom，a young robot who leaves his small﹣town home to pursue his dream of becoming an inventor．But after arriving in Robot City，his hopes of getting a job at Bigweld Industries are destroyed when he learns the firm has been taken over by the evil Ratchet （Greg Kinnear）．Egged on by his controlling mum，Madame Gasket （Jim Broadbent），Ratchet plans to reduce half of Robot City's citizens to scrap metal by refusing to sell the spare parts they need to survive．Instead，he wants to make a fortune selling expensive upgrades that few can afford．As he says，"Why be you when you can be new？"Aided by a few misfit robots known as the Rustles﹣including Robin Williams as the cowardly'（胆小的）Fender （"I'm made of a metal called Afraidium"）﹣Rodney must track down the firm's founder，Bigweld （Mel Brooks），and convince him to save the city from Ratchet's plans．The first thing that'll strike you about the movie is the thought that's gone into creating Robot City．It's a wondrous world full of mechanical marvels including wind ﹣up cars and walking streetlamps．Also terrific are the special effects．This might be an animated movie but at times you'll catch yourself thinking it's really a live﹣action film．Of course，there have been plenty of animated movies that looked the part but were let down by a weak storyline （see Shark Tale，for example）．But Robots grips （扣人心弦）right from the start thanks to a heart﹣warming and thoroughly engaging plot that never bores．My only complaints are with Williams who，as usual，has a one﹣in﹣10success rate with his jokes．Also a letdown is a romantic subplot between Rodney and a shapely robot called Cappy （Halle Berry）that doesn't go anywhere．Complains aside，this is a mechanical marvel that'll have you bolted firmly to your seat．BEST QUOTE（引述）：Fender："Even though you had a discouraging day，just remember there's another one coming tomorrow．"BEST BIT：Check out those amazing images．WORST BIT：Robin Williams，character does an unfunny Britney Spears dance routine．IF YOU LIKED…Ice Age，The Incredibles，Toy Story…YOU'LL LIKE THIS．68．This piece of writing is a．A．commercial advertisement B．film review C．movie poster D．literary essay 69．The cast of Robots is made up of all the following actors or actresses EXCEPT．A．Ewan McGregor B．Robin Williams C．Britney Spears D．Halle Berry 70．What is Shark Tale an example of？A．A great cast B．A poor plot C．Special effects D．Clumsy animation．Task-reading（10 points）31．（10分）Educating girls quite possibly harvests a higher rate of return than any other investment available in the developing world．Women's education may be an unusual economical field，but increasing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue．And economics，with its focus on encouragement，provides an explanation for why so many girls are rid of an education．Parents in low﹣income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family：girls grow up only to marry into somebody else's family and bear children．Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school﹣﹣the prophecy （观念）becomes self﹣fulfilling，trapping women in a vicious （恶性的）circle of neglect．An educated mother，on the other hand，has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices．She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children，ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance．The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls，as well as of boys，will be educated and healthy．The vicious circle is thus transformed into a virtuous circle．Few will argue that educating women has great social benefits．But it has enormous economic advantages as well．Most obviously，there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers．Wages rise by 10to 20per cent for each additional year of schooling．Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments，but they are just the beginning．Educating women also has a significant effect on health practices，including family planning．Topic：The significance of female

run【解答】答案是B．本题考查非谓语；题干中已经有了谓语动词attracted，所以空格中需要的是非谓语，排除A；___ （run）by the teenagers 充当的是restaurant 的定语，且餐馆是"被经营"，故排除C；D项是动词不定式的被动语态，表示"将来被经营"，不符合语境，排除，本题需要过去分词做定语表示被动；故答案是B．12．（1分）The most important thing ________ we should pay attention to is the firstthing _______ I have said．（）A．which；that B．that；which C．which；which D．that；that【解答】答案：D，第一个空考查定语从句，先行词为thing，并且前面有形容词最高级修饰，在从句中作宾语，所以用that引导定语从句，第二个空先行词是thing，并且前面有序数词修饰，在从句中作said的宾语，所以用that引导．13．（1分）﹣I didn't mean _______ her．﹣But talking like that means ______her．（）A．to hurt；to hurt B．hurting；hurtingC．to hurt；hurting D．hurting；to hurt【解答】答案是C．本题考查非谓语动词做宾语；动词mean后面既可以接动词不定式，也可以接动名词：mean to do sth．打算做某事；有意做某事；mean doing sth．意味着；根据语境，第一空指"有意要伤害她"，故需要不定式；第二空表示"意味着伤害她"，故需要动名词，答案是C．14．（1分）Mr．Bally approved ______ the conference．（）A．me to attend B．for my attendingC．of me to attend D．of my attending【解答】答案：D 考查动名词．approve of意为"赞成，赞同"，排除A、B项，且of是介词，后接动名词复合结构，排除C，只有D项正确．15．（1分）﹣Do you need any help，Lucy？﹣﹣Yes，the job is _____I could do myself．（）A．less then B．more thanC．no more than D．not more than【解答】答案：B．less than少于；no more than无非，只不过；not more than不多于，至多；more than之后的从句含有can或could时常表示否定意义．此时，从句中的谓语动词必须是及物动词，并且与主句的主语为逻辑上的动宾关系．根据第二句中的yes可知，对方需要帮助，所以应该是这个工作超过了他个人的能力；故选B．16．（1分）The novel，________ the writer is an overseas Chinese，is well received．（）A．whose B．of which C．its D．that【解答】答案：B 分析句式可知，主干为The novel is well received．其中空缺部分是一个非限制性定语从句，of which the writer=whose writer，即它的作者，故答案为B．17．（1分）The teacher required that all the papers ________ before 10 o'clock．（）A．were handed in B．would be handed inC．be handed in D．shall be handed in【解答】C 考查虚拟语气．require是动词"要求"，引导宾语从句时，从句要用虚拟语气及should+动词原形，should可以省略，所以答案选C．18．（1分）Students expect ______ more leisure time during their school hours．（）A．there being B．there to be C．being D．to be【解答】答案是B．本题考查动词不定式；题干中考查短语expect sb．to do sth．期待某人做…；与there be连用；expect there to be 期待有（存在）…，故答案是B．19．（1分）﹣I am sorry I forgot to bring your dictionary．﹣That's all right．___________．（）A．So much the better B．Think nothing of itC．I'm glad to hear that D．Take hold of it【解答】答案：B考查语言交际．So much the better那就更好了；Think nothing of it别放在心上，没什么；I'm glad to hear that听到这我很高兴；take hold of it抓住它．根据句意，B项正确．20．（1分）When first _______ to the market，these products enjoyed great success．（）A．introducing B．introducedC．introduce D．being introduced【解答】答案：B考查过去分词．句子主语these products 和introduce之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词作时间状语．D选项表示"正在被引进"．21．（1分）He didn't _____school yesterday because he had to ______his sick mother．（）A．attend；attend on B．join；attendC．go to；see D．join in；attend to【解答】答案：A解析：参加；照顾B：参加（团体或组织）；参加；C：去；看到；D：参加（具体的某一个活动）；照顾．根据句意"他昨天没有上学，因为他不得不照顾他生病的母亲"及所给选项分析可知，本题答案为A选项；其余选项均不符合题意．22．（1分）Upon graduation from school，how well will you __________the job that lies ahead？（）A．prepare B．prepare forC．be prepared for D．be preparing【解答】答案：C考查固定短语，be well prepared for意思是为…做好了准备，表示一种状态，故答案为C．23．（1分）I was not _______ tired，though I walked more than five miles．（）A．a little B．a bit of C．a bit D．a little of【解答】答案：C．a bit 考查与数量有关的代词和限定词．根据题干此处表达的意思是：但我一点也不累．a bit 后面加形容词，a bit of 后面加不可数名词，a bit 和a little与not连用时，意思大相径庭．not a bit=not at all，意为"一点也不"；not a little=very much，意为"十分、相当、极其"．故选C．24．（1分）We have great ________ Mr．Lee，who has been an English teacher for 30 years．（）A．respect for B．respects for C．respect to D．respects to【解答】答案：A解析：首先respect当作名词"尊重"来讲时为不可数名词，故B、D选项排除；其次本题考查have respect for"对…充满敬意"．综上，本题答案为A选项．25．（1分）What difficulty _______you have ________the problem？（）A．you think；solving B．do you think；to solveC．do you think；solving D．you think；to solve【解答】答案：C．本句是疑问句，可以先调整语序为陈述语序，即将本题变成you have what difficulty ________the problem？．根据have difficulty （in）doing 句型可知，第二个空格为doing形式，排除B和D选项．I think可以做插入语，当用于疑问句时，用do you think作插入语，因为这里插入语本身就是一疑问语序了，所以不再用疑问语序了．排除A．故本题选C．Cloze test（20 points）26．（20分）When I was younger，I thought that boys and grown men shouldn't cry．The tears were signs of being （36）A，which a man wasn't supposed to be．But later，I （37）C that courage isn't all about trying to keep all the pain in check and trying to hide the（38）B．My 18﹣year﹣old sister eloped（私奔）and with it，I saw how weak my

The large Canadianfalls—with their distinctive curved shape—are also known as theHorseshoe Falls. They are separated by Goat Island from theAmerican Falls, which are separated from the narrow Bridal VeilFalls by a small island at their south end.

In June, 2005, an 11-year-old boy was lost in the Utah wilderness for four days. During that time, he stayed on the path. He saw people searching for him but deliberately hid from them, afraid someone might “steal” him. Eventually, the unfortunate game of hide-and-seek ended and he was found. According to the Canada Safety Council, this alarming incident shows how unwise it is to instill(灌输) a fear of strangers in children. The “stranger danger” message can prevent children from developing the social s kills and judgment needed to deal effectively with real-life situations. In a difficult situation, a stranger could be their lifeline to safety.To have a child go missing is a parent’s worst nightmare. The threat of abduction by a stranger is minimal when compared with other possible reasons for a disappearance. In 2004, there were 67,266 missing-children cases in Canada. Only 31 involved abduction; in most of those cases the abductor was a relative, friend, or person known to the family. There were 671 cases of children wandering off, and 332 cases of abductions by a parent. Almost 80 percent of all cases were runaways. These statistics cast doubt on the idea that children should never talk to strangers. Wandering off is more common — but a lost children may have to call upon a stranger for help, and must develop the ability to judge what kind of people to approach. The “never talk to strangers” rule does not protect children in the situations they are most likely to face. On top of this, it can be confusing. Adults do not model the behavior; they often talk to strangers. A child may not know how to tell who is a stranger, and who is not.For young children, nothing replaces close supervision(监管). Pre-schoolers do not understand risk and tend to act without thinking. Children need to develop habits and attitudes that will protect them from the real threats and dangers they may face. The Canada Safety Council encourages parents to give their children age-appropriate positive messages about safety, bearing in mind how youngsters may understand their world.58. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the 11-year-old boy?A. He practiced the “never talk to strangers” rule.B. He hid from the rescuers to avoid possible abduction.C. He eventually showed up when his hide-and-seek game ended.D. He stayed where he was, expecting the coming of familiar people.59. Among the possible reasons for the missing-children cases in Canada, which one is the most frequent?A. Being abducted by a parent.B. Wandering off.C. Being abducted by strangers.D. Running away.60. The “never talk to strangers” rule is confusing to children because __________.A. a friendly and attractive person may be dangerousB. adults do not act upon the rule and strangers are hard to tellC. the rule does not protect children in the situation of abductingD. a lost child may have difficulty in communicating with a stranger61. Which would the author agree with about the “never talk to strangers” rule?A. It is not well recognized by parents.B. It is not effective in keeping kids safe.C. It is easy enough for children to follow.D. It is practical as a safety tip in daily life.COutside her cottage, old Mrs. Taylor was hanging out laundry on a wire line, unaware that some children were hiding in a nearby tree watching her every move. They were determined to find out if she really was a witch.They watched nervously as she took a broomstick to sweep the dirt from her stone steps. But much to their disappointment, she didn’t get o n the broomstick and fly off. The old lady only looked up when her hen began to make sounds loudly — signaling that she had laid an egg in the nest on the top of the haystack.(干草堆).The old lady put aside her broomstick and walked to the haystack, followed by Michael, a black cat she had rescued from a fox trap. With only three legs, it was hard for Michael to keep up with his mistress. The cat was proof for the children that only a witch would own a black cat with three legs! Crawling further along the branches, they could clearly see the haystack.Mrs. Taylor was standing on a wooden box with the new-laid egg in one hand. Placing the egg in her pocket, she readied herself to climb down. Then, without warning, the box broke under her and she crashed to the ground. The children were in horror.“Should we go and help her?” asked Mia.“What if it’s a trick?” replied Patrick. “She probably knows we’re here. Witches know things like that!”After thinking for a while, Julia said “Anyway, we should go and check whether she is all right.”Approaching prudently, they could see a wound on the old lady’s forehead. She had knocked her head on a stone and was unconscious.“Go and get Dad,” Mia yelled to her brothers. “Tell him about the accident.”The boys didn’t need another excuse to leave. They ran as fast as they could for help, hoping that Mrs. Taylor would not regain consciousness and turn the girls into frogs.Later, in the hospital, the old lady smiled her thanks. “I was so lucky that you lovely children happened to be passing when 1 fell. I must have yelled quite loudly.”The children exchanged guilty glances, but were very pleased that she was not a witch after all!62.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.D. People in glasshouses shouldn’t throw stones.DConventional wisdom says that hardship can make us old before our time. In fact, a new study suggests that violence not only leaves long¬-term scars on child ren’s bodies, but also changes their DNA, causing changes that are equal to seven to ten years of premature aging.Scientists measured this by studying the ends of children’s chromosomes(染色体), called telomeres, says Idan Shalev, lead author of a study published in Molecular Psychiatry.Telomeres are special DNA sequences which prevent the DNA in chromosomes from separating. They get shorter each time a cell divides, until a cell cannot divide any more and dies.Several factors have been found to shorten telomeres, including smoking, radiation and psychological stresses such as being treated badly when young and taking care of a chronically ill person.In this study, researchers examined whether exposure to violence could make children’s telomeres shorten faster than normal. They interviewed the mothers of 236 children at ages 5, 7 and 10, asking whether the youngsters had been exposed to domestic violence between the mother and her partner; physical maltreatment by an adult; or bullying. Researchers measured the children’s telomeres—in cells obtained by swabbing the insides of their cheeks—at ages 5 and 10.Telomeres shortened faster in kids exposed to two or more types of violence, says Shalev. Unless that pattern changes, the study suggests, these kids could be expected to develop diseases of aging, such as heart attacks or memory loss, seven to 10 years earlier than their peers.Shalev says there is hope for these kids. His study found that, in rare cases, telomeres can lengthen. Better nutrition, exercise and stress reduction are three things that may be able to lengthen telomeres, he says.He study confirms a small but growing number of studies suggesting that early childhood adversity imprints itself in our chromosomes, says Charles Nelson, a professor of pediatrics and neuroscience at Harvard Medical School.66. The new study found that ________.A. violence leaves scars on a child’s mindB. hardship can change a child’s agingC. violenc e can speed up a child’s agingD. hardship has a long¬-term effect on a child’s mind67.

Beyond the rewarding nature of owning something truly unique, small businesses have the edge over their big business counterparts in many areas. Consider the importance of being independent and how that independence can help drive your business.To some, having fewer customers simply means less cash flow; however, having a smaller base also allows you to focus more on customer satisfaction.Companies are always searching for ways to improve customer service and have more of their business. Whether through paying special attention to who comes through your door or monitoring your customers through the social network, it’s less of trouble to make sure your customers’ needs are being met when there’s a sm aller sample to deal with. In addition, it becomes much easier to create a personal connection with buyers when you have enough time and attention to show them some love.Small businesses have an inherent advantage over their big box competitors in the sense that they can offer something different. People want to see the independent businesses that offer unique products and flavor to their communities. Your business can be the difference when it comes to what customers want.Of course, big box companies will almost always beat you down when it comes to price. Consider, however, that if you can offer a truly unique product or experience, price becomes much less of an issue.People like the idea of supporting local independent businesses versus “the big guys”. So, what businesses are booming due to the rise of independence?Craft Beer(精酿啤酒) ---- The craft beer movement in the United States is supported so widely that big breweries have taken to creating their own competing “craft beer” brands in an attempt to follow the trend. While Anheuser Busch represents nearly half of America’s breweries, craft beer has seen a huge jump in sales in resent years.Video Games ---- Whether through PCs, traditional consoles or mobile games, independent developers are supported by enthusiastic fans and micro-transactions in an industry that was formerly dominated by bigger developers.Musicians ---- The modern web offers immense opportunities to musicians, resulting in more economic and artistic freedom. A surprising number of mainstream artists have seen great success from their independent releases, such as Macklemore’s The Heist, which has sold over one million copies in the United States alone.Some small businesses don’t want to be small businesses forever. Regardless, consider what independence does for you and your company. If you offer something out of the ordinary, you can build an audience that respects第四节：书面表达（15分）请阅读下面短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
