Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity thatyoung people have to choose their own ways of life. In a moretraditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to livein the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parentsknow and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society,young people often travel great distances for their education, moveout of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whomtheir parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those oftheir parents.In our society, parents often expect their children to do betterthan they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do allthe things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another cause ofthe gap between them. Often, they discover that they have very littlein common with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society isthe third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditionalculture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in oursociety the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. Theyoung and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separatedby different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation gap willcontinue in American life for some time to come.6. The first paragraph tells us that ______.A. the problem of the generation gap draws much attention frompeopleB. it is out of date to talk about the generation gapC. children and parents are trying to understand each otherD. it is very important for people to frequently communicate witheach other7.

Which of the following is NOT the cause of the generation gap?A. Young people like to depend more on themselves.B. Parents do not love their children dearly.C. American society changes rapidly.D. Parents expect too much of their children.10. The main idea of the passage is ________.A. that the generation gap needs consideringB. when the generation gap is necessary in American societyC. why the generation gap existD. how we can reduce the generation gap二、交际用语(此部分共有10个未完成的对话，针对每个对话中未完成的部分有4个选项，请你从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个最佳选项。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single linethrough the center.复习1Passage OneAsk a mom if she's happier now that she has a child, and she'll usually say yes. But psychologists who study happiness often report a different picture. Being the mom of a young child (especially one under 3) is rewarding, but also a real strain on your mood. "Moment to moment, you may be tired and sometimes angry, though kids do bring joy" says Peter Ubel, M.D., a professor of medicine and psychology at the University of Michigan. In fact, on their list ofenjoyable activities, moms rank childcare lower than eating, exercising, or watching TV, according to a University of Michigan study, and kid care rates only slightly higher than housework, working, or commuting!One reason for the difference between moms and experts: selective memory. When psychologists ask moms in a general way if they like spending time with their kids, the overwhelming majority say they do because they're thinking of fun activities like reading a book or playing in the park. When they're specifically asked to describe their actual daily routine, they remember the hours they spent struggling to get their child dressed or ready for bed.Maybe, though, the psychologists are missing the intensity of joy that time spent with your child can bring. Luckily, those moments can overcome your daily frustrations. "Happiness is more than just that smiley feeling," says Karen Reivich, Ph.D., a research associate in the Positive Psychology Center at the University of Pennsylvania. "It's also feeling a connection to something larger than yourself. When people are in service to something bigger, they describe their lives as filled with meaning."16. Which of the following best summarizes Peter Ubel’s opinion of being the mom of a youngchild?A. It makes the mom exhausted.B. It is both rewarding and stressful.C. It makes the mom easily irritated.D. It is quite frustrating an experience.17. According to a University of Michigan study, which of the following ranks higher thanchildcare on moms’ list of enjoyable activities?A. eating, housework or commutingB. eating, exercising or watching TVC. exercising, housework or watching TVD. exercising, commuting or watching TV18. What does the underlined phrase selective memory in the third paragraph mean?A. Moms often tend to remember only the happy moments with their children.B. Moms often tend to remember only the hours they spent taking care of their children.C. Experts tend to remember only the happy moments the moms spend with their children.D. Experts tend to remember only the hours the moms spend with their children.19. According to Karen Reivich, how do the moms’ moments of intense joy compare with theirdaily frustrations?A. Those moments make them feel more excited.B. Those moments make them feel more relaxed.C. Those moments can overcome their daily frustrations.D. Those moments can do nothing about their daily frustrations.20. From the last sentence of the passage we can infer that__________.A. Moms have only the smiley feeling about childcare.B. Moms feel frustrated at taking care of their children.C. Moms enjoy doing housework as a part of their childcare.D. Moms regard childcare as a meaningful part of their lives.Passage TwoDo you go to bed without brushing your teeth? You may think that not brushing is not a big deal. But caring for your mouth can prevent serious (and even embarrassing) problems.Cavities happen to just about everyone. A cavity is a diseased spot in the tooth. It all starts with a sticky film made up of bacteria. That film coats your teeth and gums. The bacteria eat sugars from things you eat and drink. That produces acids. Then, the acids eat away at your teeth's hard outer coating, called enamel.If you don't brush regularly to remove the film, or if you keep missing a spot, those acids keep eating away the teeth's enamel. That is how you get a cavity. "The larger it gets, the closer it gets to the nerve, increasing the chance of severe pain," says Lynn Ramer, president of the American Dentists' Association.A cavity will never just go away by itself. It will only get worse. "Left untreated, 100 percent of the time a cavity will spread," says Dr. William Berlocher, a dentist who is also president of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry.If a cavity is caught early enough, your dentist will be able to fix your tooth. The area of the tooth where the cavity was will be replaced with a special material called a filling. Some fillings are made of a metal blend containing silver. Other fillings are a tooth-colored mix of glass and a strong material called resin.If you ignore a cavity, it will spread. It can go into the tooth's root. At that point, the dentist will have to do a root canal. In that procedure, the dentist removes the tooth's nerve.21.According to the second paragraph, what is a cavity?A. a diseased spot in the toothB. a film of acids coating the teethC. a sticky film made up of bacteriaD. a hard outer coating covering the teeth22. What would happen if you do not brush regularly?A. The film coating your teeth would be removed.B. There would be less diseased spots in your teeth.C. The film coating your teeth would be less sticky.D. The acids would keep eating away your teeth’s hard outer coating.23. If a cavity reac hes the tooth’s root, how would a dentist treat it?A. Replace the cavity with a fillingB. Replace the tooth’s enamelC. Remove the tooth’s nerveD. Pull out the tooth24. According to the fifth paragraph, what are some fillings made of?A. a mix of silver and resinB. a metal blend containing glassC. a metal blend containing copperD. a mix of glass and resin25. The main purpose of the passage is to __________.A. explain the formation and treatment of cavityB. emphasize the importance of brushing teethC. discuss the proper ways of brushing teethD. describe how a dentist treats a cavityPassage ThreeSmall talk is like having loose change in your pocket. Like quarters for a pay phone, loose change comes in handy when you least expect it. But when it comes to small talk, you must know when to spend it or save it.All small talk is not the same. With some people, you walk away having killed a few moments. With others, you feel a connection and want to get to know them better. The difference is the effort one or both of you made at making a connection. It helps to call the person by name, mention things you have in common (mutual acquaintances, places you've been, experiences you've shared, career or personal goals), show interest in that person's views or hobbies, and match the other person's speaking style, voice, emotion and body language as you talk.People feel being related to others who like them, appreciate them, enjoy the same things they do and are helpful to them. Time and attention make connections that last.When you're considering small talk, be sensitive to the other person's mood and circumstances. When your airplane seatmate is obviously preoccupied, leave him or her alone. Neither would you approach someone when the person is dashing down a hallway to a meeting. On other occasions, small talk is inappropriate because of the person involved. If the CEO has unexpectedly called you in for "a little chat," this is not the time to take the lead. Let him or her dictate the topic and pace. The same is true with customers. Develop a sixth sense about those who appreciate small talk and those who don't.26. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase comes in handy in the first paragraph?A. becomes very usefulB. becomes very specialC. becomes very importantD. becomes very inconvenient27. According to the second paragraph, how can you make a connection with others？A. mention your unique experiencesB. describe others’ dressing stylesC. talk about others’ hobbie sD. discuss others’ names28. If you want to make others’ feel related to you, you may need to__________.A. spend time chatting with themB. show how excellent you areC. give presents to themD. be helpful to them29. According to the fourth paragraph, on what occasion should you avoid making small talk withothers?A. when others are strolling on the streetB. when your airplane seatmate asks you for a favorC. when your airplane seatmate is absorbed in thoughtD. when others are walking down the hallway after a meeting30. According to the last paragraph, what should you do when your CEO has unexpectedly calledyou in for “a little chat”?A.let the CEO dictate the topic and paceB.talk about the difficulties in your workC.take the lead to make small talkD.decide on the topic of talkPassage FourA biological clock is what tells plants, animals, and other organisms how to organize their time. This ‘clock’ helps plants and animals change their routine when they move to places with different climates and environments. Most biological clocks are based on the movement of the sun and follow a twenty-four hour cycle called a circadian rhythm. Some animals sleep only at night, making them diurnal. Animals that sleep during daytime are nocturnal. Flowers are diurnal because they close their petals at night but they open again in the morning. Bats sleep in the daytime so they are nocturnal.Some biological clocks also follow an annual cycle, especially in animals that have annual migrations. Animals that have annual cycles do different things at different times of year. Their actions are determined by the seasons.Different animals can live in the same area when their biological clocks make them look for food at different times of day. This process also keeps them out of each other's way. Biological clocks help plants and animals prepare for changes in the seasons. Animals need to know what time of year to reproduce so their offspring will be born when the conditions for survival are good.Human beings' sleep cycle is a circadian rhythm, a system based on the twenty-four hour day. In the circadian rhythm most humans sleep at night. When people travel to different time zones their biological clocks have to adjust. In humans, the biological clock is in a group of cells called the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN.) The SCN is located near the bottom middle part of the brain.Scientists are continuing to research the biological clock and circadian rhythms. Scientists discovered the first circadian gene in a mammal (a mouse) in 1997. It is only a matter of time before your own biological clock will tell YOU the time!31.Which of the following type of animal or plant is nocturnal?A. human beingsB. flowersC. batsD. cows32.What is a circadian rhythm?A. a twenty-four hour cycle of most biological blocksB.the closure and opening of the petals of flowersC. a cycle of some animals’ annual migrationD.the movement rhythm of the sun33.According to the third paragraph, why can different animals live in the same area peacefully?A.Because they look for different types of food.B.Because their conditions for survival are good.C.Because they do different things at different times of year.D.Because their biological clocks keep them out of each other’s way.34.Where is the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) located?A.the bottom middle part of the brainB.the bottom left part of the brainC.the top right part of the brainD.the top left part of the brain35.From the last sentence of the passage we can infer that __________.A.We still lack a full understanding of our own biological clock.B.Our own biological clock is a lot different from that of a mouse.C.We have already known much about the circadian rhythms of mammals.D.There is still a lot to be done before your own biological clock will tell you the time.复习2Passage OneAre some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reached those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents andchildren, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.1.The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him __________.A.at birthB.through educationC.both at birth and through educationD.more at birth than through education2.If a child is born with low intelligence he can __________.A.never become a geniusB.still become a genius if he should be given special educationC.exceed his intelligence limits in rich surroundingsD.not exceed his intelligence limits even in rich surroundings3.In the second paragraph “if we take two unrelated people at random from the population--”means if we __________.A.pick any two personsB.take out two different personsC.choose two persons who are relativeD.choose two persons with different intelligence4.The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows__________.A.the importance of their intelligenceB.the role of environment on intelligenceC.the importance of their positionD.the part that birth places5.The best title of this passage can be __________.A.SurroundingsB.IntelligenceC.Dependence on EnvironmentD.Effect of EducationPassage TwoBefore the grass has thickened on the roadside verges and leaves have started growing on the trees it is a perfect time to look around and see just how dirty Britain has become. The pavements are stained with chewing gum that has been spat out and the gutters are full ofdiscarded fast food cartons. Years ago I remember travelling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bags, discarded bottles and soiled nappies at the edge of every road. Nowadays, Britain seems to look at least as bad. What has gone wrong?The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives lasts a lot longer than before. If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away, it stays in the undergrowth for years; a semi-permanent reminder of what a tatty little country we have now.Firstly, it is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers. These will take anything from 100 to 1,000 years to rot. However, it is not as if there is no solution to this. A few years ago, the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrier bags and in three months reduced their use by 90%. When he was a minister, Michael Meacher attempted to introduce a similar arrangement in Britain. The plastics industry protested, of course. However, they need not have bothered; the idea was killed before it could draw breath, leaving supermarkets free to give away plastic bags.What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined effort, both individual and collective, before it is too late. The alternative is to continue sliding downhill until we have a country that looks like a vast municipal rubbish tip. We may well be at the tipping point. Yet we know that people respond to their environment. If things around them are clean and tidy, people behave cleanly and tidily. If they are surrounded by squalor, they behave squalidly. Now, much of Britain looks pretty squalid. What will it look like in five years?6.The writer says that it is a good time to see Britain before the trees have leaves becauseA. Britain looks perfect.B. you can see Britain at its dirtiest.C. you can see how dirty Britain is now.D. the grass has thickened on the verges.7.According to the writer, things used to be___________.A. worse abroad.B. the same abroad.C. better abroad.D. worse, but now things are better abroad.8.To solve the problem of plastic bags, Michael Meacher__________A. followed the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.B. tried to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.C. made no attempt to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.D. had problems with the plastics industry who weren't bothered about the tax.9.As to what can be done, the writer thinks __________A. it is too late to do anything.B. we are at the tipping point.C. there is more than one way to solve the problem.D. we need to work together to solve the problem.10.The writer thinks that__________。

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning this fact. Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong.

Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parentsknow and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society,young people often travel great distances for their education, moveout of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom theirparents have never met, and choose jobs different from those oftheir parents.In our society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do allthe things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another causeof the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have verylittle in common with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society isthe third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditionalculture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in oursociety the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. Theyoung and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generationgap will continue in American life for some time to come.6.The first paragraph tells us that ______.A.the problem of the generation gap draws much attentionfrom peopleB.it is out of date to talk about the generation gapC.children and parents are trying to understand each otherD.it is very important for people to frequently communicatewith each other7.In a more traditional society, old people_______.A.have their children respect and listen to themB.do not care for their children at allC.expect their children to rebel against themD.do not live together with their children8.In American society young people________.A.do not need to find jobsB.leave home at an early ageC.have better education than their parentsD. marry people younger than them9.Which of the following is NOT the causA.Young people like to depend moreB.Parents do not love their children dC.American society changes rapidly.D.Parents expect too much of their c10.The main idea of the passage is ____A.that the generation gap needs coB.when the generation gap is neceC.why the generation gap existD.how we can reduce the generatio二、交际用语 (此部分共有 10 个未完成的完成的部分有 4 个选项，请你从 A、B、个最佳选项。

Since then, innumerable children 37 in front of the set. However, many people now worry about the effect of TV on the young. They wonder there had never been 38 invention. Why are they so afraid? Is television really harmful?Like almost anything else, television has its good as well as its bad sides. It has 39 joy and interest into the lives of the old, the sick, and the lonely. Without it, some of these people would have little pleasure and no window 40 the world.Unfortunately, some television programs have been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough 41 . They do not realize that TV programs often show an unreal world. Commercials lie in order to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. Children believe them and want to 42 what they see on TV. They believe that they will make more friends if they use a certain soap—or some other product. They believe that the murders on TV 43 are normal and acceptable. By the time they are out of high school, most young people have watched about 15,000 hours of television, and have seen about 18,000 violent 44 .

Decide whether each of them is true (T) or false (F).Passage 1In the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the "Lusitania", which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 1500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $300,000 or more. The ship, lying on the sea-bed has been bought by a man called John Light. He paid about $1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.46. Divers try to bring up metals because some kinds of them are worth a lot of money.47. Now divers still search for valuable things and try to bring to the earth surface the ships themselves.48. John Light hopes he may be able to sell the whole ship of “Lusitania”for more than $1.5 million.49. The ship “Lusitania” sank off the southwestern coast of Ireland with a lot of people drowned.50. In the past, divers hoped to bring up everything of a sunken ship except metals.Section B:The passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. Decide on the choice that best answers the question.IV. Translate the following sentences into Chinese.1. He answered me, but he spoke neither slowly nor clearly.2. With the Mid-autumn Festival round the corner, she is getting more and more homesick.3. Hong Kong is one of the world’s most important financial centers and it is also an important port city.4. Computer has brought joy and interest into the lives of the young and the old.5. Nowadays more and more people are concerned about the pollution.V.

B. memory can be improved by practicing it
C. the poor and humble people may help you remember things
D. if you want a good memory, do not read or write anything
Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? Why is this? Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, times and prices, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
D. Learn from the Poor and Humble.

A young man who lived inLondonwas in love with a beautiful girl. Soon she became his fiancée（未婚妻）. The man was very poor while the girl was rich. The young man wanted to make her a present on her birthday. He wanted to buy something beautiful for her, but he had no idea how to do it, as he had very little money. The next morning he went to a shop. There were many fine things there: gold watches, diamond… but all these things were too expensive. There was one thing he could not take his eyes off. It was a beautiful vase. That was a suitable present for his fiancée. He had been looking at the vase for halfan hour when the manager of the shop noticed him. The young man looked so pale, sad and unhappy that the manager asked what had happened to him.
