Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. Most children will "obey" instructions some time before they can speak, though the word "obey" is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. But since these can't be said to show the baby's intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add newwords to their store. This self-imitation leads to deliberate imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.It is a problem we need to get our teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the word. Thus the use at seven months of "mama" as a greeting for his mother can not be dismissed as a meaningless simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself. I doubt, however, whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.36. Before children started speaking________ .A. they need equal amount of listeningB. they need different amounts of listeningC. they are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructionsD. they can't understand and obey the adult's oral instructions37. Children who start speaking later________ .A. may have problems with their listeningB. probably do not hear enough language spoken around themC. usually pay close attention to what they hearD. often take a long time in learning to listen properly38. A baby's first noise are________ .A. an expression of his moods and feelingsB. an early form of languageC. a sign that he means to tell you somethingD. an imitation of the speech of adults39. The problem of deciding at what point a baby's imitations can be considered asspeech________ .A. is important because words have different meanings for different peopleB. is not especially important because the changeover takes place graduallyC. is one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with ageD. is one that should be completely ignored because children's use of words is often meaningless40. The speaker implies _______.A. parents can never hope to teach their children new soundsB. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speakC. children who are good at imitating learn new words more quicklyD. even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitating四. 改错We are all busy talking about and use the Internet, 41. ______which set up in the 1960s. At first the Internet was 42. ______only used by the government, but, in the early 1970s, 43. ______the universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to 44. ______use it too.

they meet with.Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 1 problem.They often accept the opinion or ideas of other people.Other times they begin to act without 2 ;they try to find a solution by trial and error. 3 ,when all of these methods fail,the person with a problem has to start analysing.There are six 4 in analysing a problem.5 the person must recognise that there is a problem.For example,Sam’s bicycle is broken,and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does.Sam must6 that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the person must 7 the problem.Before Sam can repair his bicycle,he must know why it does not work.For example,he must 8 the parts that are wrong.Now the person must look for 9 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 10 solutions.For example,suppose Sam 11 that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes.At this time he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 12 his friends at the bike shop,or look at his brakes carefully.After 13 the problem,the person should have 14 suggestions for a possible solution.Take Sam as an example 15 ,his suggestions might be:tighten or loosen thebrakes;buy new brakes and change the old ones.In the end,one suggestion seems to be the solution 16 the problem.Sometimes the final idea es quite 17 because the thinker suddenly sees something in a 18 way.Sam ,for example,suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖) stuck to a brake.He 19 hits on the solution to his problem:he must clean the brake.Finally the solution is 20 .Sam does it and finds his bicycle works perfectly.In short he has solved the problem.1.A.serious ual C.similar2.A.practice3.A.Besides B.Instead4.A.ways B.conditions C.stages5.A.First ually C.In general D.Most importantly7.A.judgeck B.determine C.correct9.A.answers B.skills C.explanation10.A.possible11.A.hopes B.argues C.decides12.A.look for B.talk to C.agree with D.depend onettling down C.paring with14.A.extra B.enough C.several15.A.secondly B.again17.A.unexpectedly te C.clearly19.A.fortunately B.easily C.clearly20.A.recorded B.pleted C.testedⅢ.阅读理解AChildren start out as natural scientists,eager to look into the world around them.Helping them enjoy science can be easy;there’s no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment.You only have to share your children’s curiosity(好奇).Firstly,listen to their questions.I once visited a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job.The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling,salary(薪水) and whether I liked my job.When I finished answering,we sat facing one another in silence.Finally I said,“Now that we’ve finished with your lists,do you have questions of your own about science?”After a long pause,a boy raised his hand,“Have you ever seen a grasshopper(蚱蜢) eat?When I try eating leaves like that,I get a stomachache.Why?”This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.Secondly,give them time to think.Studies over the past 30 years have shown that,after asking a question,adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer,no time for a child to think.When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more,children give more logical(符合逻辑的),plete and creative answers.Thirdly,watch your language.Once you have a child involved in a science discussion,don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “Very good”.These words work well when it es to encouraging good behavior(行为).But in talking about science,quick praise can signal that discussion is over.Instead,keep things going by saying,“That’s interesting” or “I’d never thought of it that way before”,or ing up with more questions or ideas.Never push a child to “Think”.It doesn’’s more,this can turn a conversation into a performance.The child will try to find the answer you want,in as few words as possible,so that he will be a smaller target(目标) for your disagreement.Lastly,show don’t tell.Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program.Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass(放大镜),and they’ll understandwhy you want them to wash before dinner.Rather than saying that water evaporates (蒸发),set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.1.According to the passage,children are natural scientists,and to raise their interest,the most important thing for adults to do is.A.to let them see the world aroundB.to share the children’s curiosityC.to explain difficult phrases about scienceD.to supply the children with lab equipment2.In the last sentence of the first paragraph,the word “lists” could best bereplaced by.A.any questionsB.any problemsC.questions from textbooksD.any number of questions3.According to the passage,children can answer questions in a more logical,pleteand creative way if adults.A.ask them to answer quicklyB.wait for one or two seconds after a questionC.tell them to answer the next dayD.wait at least for three seconds after a question4.In which of the following paragraph(s) does the author tell us what to say toencourage children in a science discussion?A.The second and third.B.The fourth and fifth.C.The fifth and sixth.D.The seventh.5.The author mentions all of the following techniques for adults to share with theirchildren’s curiosity except that adults should.A.tell their children stories instead of reciting(背诵) factsB.offer their children chances to see things for themselvesC.be patient enough when their children answer questionsD.encourage their children to ask questions of their ownBA letter to Edward,a columnist (报刊专栏作家)Dear Mr Expert,I grew up in an unhappy and abusive home.I always Promised myself that I’d get out as soon as possible.Now,at the age of 20,I have a good job and a nice house,and I’m really proud of the independence I’ve achieved.Here’s the problem:several of my friends who still live with their parents wish they had places like mine—so much so that they make mine theirs.It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me.But now they seem to take it for granted that they can show up any time they like.They bring boyfriends over,talk on the phone and stay out forever.I enjoy having my friends here sometimes—it makes the place feel fortable and warm —but this is my home,not a party house.I was old enough to move out on my own,so why can’t I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy(隐私)?Joan Edward’s reply to JoanDear Joan,If your family didn’t pay attention to your needs when you were a child,you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now.And if you’ve gathered your friends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere(气氛),you may fear that saying no will bring back the kind of conflict you grew up with—or destroy the nice atmosphere you now enjoy.You need to understand that in true friendship it’s Okay to put your own needs first from time to time.Be clear about the message you want to send.For example,“I really love your pany but I also need some privacy.So please call before you e over.”Edward1.We can learn from the first letter that Joan.A.lives away from her parentsB.takes pride in her friendsC.knows Edward quite wellD.hates her parents very much2.We can infer from the first letter that.A.Joan considers her friends more important than her privacy’s friends visit her more often than she can acceptC.Joan doesn’t like the parties at allD.Joan dislikes the boyfriends her friends bring over3.According to Edward,why can’t Joan tell her friends her feelings?A.She is afraid of hurting her friends.B.She does not understand true friendship.C.Her family experience stops her from doing so.D.She does not put her needs first.4.The underlined word “conflict” in the second letter means.A.dependent lifeB.fierce fightC.bad mannersD.painful feeling5.The second letter suggests that Edward.A.is worried about Joan’s problemB.warns Joan not to quarrel with her friendsC.advises Joan on how to refuse peopleD.encourages Joan to be brave enoughⅣ.短文改错It was very cold in

Friendships get more precious as we get older, and when we reached our forties, we decided we needed to put in a little more work to keep our friendship strong, healthy and growing. We pick out one Saturday a month and promise to do something together. Sometimes we have a long lunch out. Other times we go to see a movie or shopping. But at least once a quarter, we have an adventure.In some adventures we drove to our favorite places. In other adventures we spent a night in a place sharing a festival like Christmas or sometimes we just drove, stopping wherever we wanted. We have headed out of the state to Tennessee. We have tried out new restaurants and new shops. xKb One of our adventures took us to a very small town in south Georgia. It was one of those watermelon or cotton or peanut festivals,and we enjoyed buying the handmade gifts and eating the terrific foods. The most impressive was a parade, with local school marching bands and service groups. We joined the parade and began smiling and waving! Everyone smiled and waved back! Of course, their smiling faces turned confused and puzzled as we passed in our car. “Who are these women?” they must have wondered. Finally, we turned a corner and a serious-looking policeman directed us back to the highway. We really had a great day!Fun is always on the menu, whether it’s a weekend trip or a couple of hours over lunch. We talk and have influence on each other’s life. We share our struggles and our happiness. We ask for and receive advice. And we laugh!Don’t keep promising yourself that “someday soon” you will get together with them. Do it now. Pick up your phone and make a planfor this weekend. You need it. Your friend needs it. You’ll be a happier, healthier person for it!40. Which of the following activities is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Driving to favorite places.B. Sharing festivals in a place.C. Going shopping together.D. Surfing the net together.41. What had a strong effect on them when they were in south Georgia?A. The Watermelon Festival.B. The Peanut Festival.C. The handmade gifts.D. The parade.42. How does the writer feel when traveling together with her friend?A. Tired.B. Busy.C. Confused.D. Happy.43. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. An adventure in south GeorgiaB. Keeping our friendship strong and healthyC. Having lunch out with a friendD. Getting together once in a quarterCA sudden screaming voice of a lady made everybody within a distance on the road stop and look back at her. It was a frightful moment when we realized why she had screamed. Her child was about to get hit by a car. After the situation came in control, a few of us went to the lady and asked her what happened. We got to know that her child had seen his uncle standing on the other side of the road and out of excitement ran towards him on the busy road.Well, this was just an example of how accidents take place due to children and how the chances of these children meeting with accidents are more than the adults because they are not familiar with the road safety rules. The recent survey on traffic accidents shows that the road accidents happened to children from the age of 10 to 12 has increased whereas there was a decline in the accident ration of the children from the age of 13 and above.One of the important things that both parents and teachers should teach them is the importance of road safety. They should be told about the consequences of what happens when a person does not follow traffic rules. If the children are taught to follow all the traffic rules then the chances of road accidents become less.In most of the schools, road safety rules are taught to the students by showing them pictures. The students should also be taught not to rush while boarding or getting down from the school bus. One of the important steps of road safety rules is not to talk while crossing the road.We think there is no need to learn traffic rules because we all have common sense, but what it seems to be so easy is not that easy actually. There is a long list of such instances where almost one person dies every day in a road accident. With a conscious mind we can easily avoid such accidents and teach children the same for their safety.44. More children under 12 met with the road accidents probably because .A. they liked playing in the streetB. they usually broketraffic rulesC. they were too young to walkD. they were not protected well45. We can learn from Paragraph 3 that .A. students should be taught to obey the traffic rulesB. parents should take responsibility for their children’s accidentsC. teachers owe a duty of care to all their studentsD. parents should teach their children how to walk carefully46. Which of the following can help children keep safe on the road?a. Getting off the school bus as soon as possible.b. Talking while walking on the road.c. Crossing the roads at the zebra crossing properly.d. Boarding the school bus in turnA. a, cB. b, cC. a, bD. c, d47. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Learning traffic rules is important for the childrenB. More traffic accidents happen on the road every dayC. Parents and teachers should keep the children healthyD. What seems to be easy is usually not that easy at allDA 77-year-old former traffic policeman, who had cared for his Alzheimer’s-stricken wife for ten years, walked into the hospital where she was being treated and shot her three times.Vitangelo Bini then sat down at the foot of her bed to call the police. When they arrived he told them, “I couldn’t stand to see her suffer any more.”Mr Bini, from Prato, in Tuscany, was in custody (监护) last night after being charged with homicide (杀人罪). His wife, Mara Tani, 82, had s uffered from an advanced state of Alzheimer’s for about ten years and was admitted to the Misericordia e Dolce hospital in Pratolast week when she lost consciousness.Mr Bini, who had been her full-time carer, had visited her several times a day, hospital staff told the police. On Saturday, however, witnesses said that he entered the room that she shared with five other women, hugged her and then put a towel over her face before shooting her in the head. A few seconds later he fired another shot to the head and one to the heart, Fabio Di Chierri, the vice-director of Prato police station, said.Mr Di Chierri said that Mr Bini sat down and tried to call the police on his mobile phone. He could not get through, perhaps because so many others in the neighborhood were doing the same.Police officers happened to be on the same floor and arrived immediately. Mr Bini did not put up any resistance and tried to explain his actions, although he appeared and sounded dazed (恍惚的) and confused, the officers said. Th e couple’s children, a son, 43, and a daughter, 44, were stunned by the news and did not see their father when they went to the police station.48. The underlined word “stunned” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “”.A. disappointedB. shockedC. excitedD. depressed49. We can learn from the passage that .A. the couple has three childrenB. the couple’s children never looked after their motherC. Mr Bini was tired of caring for his wifeD. Mara Tani must have suffered a lot50. What’s the correct order of the news?a. Mr Bini had visited her several times a day.b. Mr Bini was charged and left in custody.c. Mr Bini shot his wife to death.d. Mara Tani was admitted to the Misericordia e Dolce hospital.e. Mr Bini sat down and tried to call the policeA. d, b, a, c, eB. b, d, c, a, eC. d, a, c, e, bD. c, b, a, d, e51. The passage is written mainly to .A. entertain readersB. attract readersC. inform readersD. have pity on the old ladyEMoving to a new neighborhood, town, state, or even country canbe a pretty scary experience. All you know is that things will be different and chances are you won’t know the kids at your new school.Leaving old friends and familiar places behind can be difficult. However, as you begin the moving process, keep in mind that saying goodbye to your old house, school, and friends does not mean that you have to forget them or that your farewell is permanent! If you’re moving to a new state or even a different country and w on’t see your friends for a long time, don’t despair. Make sure to ask everyone for their address so you can write them letters. Also, thanks to the Internet, it is very easy to stay in touch through e-mail or instant messaging technologies. With your pare nt’s permission, you can even create a blog or web page to record all of your new experiences. Yourold friends will love seeing what you are busy with.Many schools have an orientation program where a local student shows a new students around for their first week. This can help you find your way around the school and make new friends faster.While moving is tough on kids of any age, high school counselor Karen Turner says moves can be particularly difficult for teens. “Ithink moving during adolescents is an extremely stressful experience, especially if you’re into your early junior high or early senior high year. Students tend to have established a very strong peer networkduring that period in their lives. Often this has more influence on them even th an their families in some cases, and when they’re torn from that there’s often resentment (怨气).” However, Turner adds that while moving isn’t easy, there are things that your parents and the schoolcan do to help you cope with the change.52. Which of the following is mainly suggested in Paragraph 2?A. Staying in contact with old friends.B. Expressing yourself when it’s possible.C. Forming good habits at school.D. Keeping positive about your new school.53. According to the passage, an orientation program .A. helps local students in many waysB. is organized by new studentsC. offers help to new studentsD. focuses on all the students at school54. According to the passage, Karen Turner may agree that .A. many parents seem to care little about their childrenB. teens can easily be attached to their friendsC. parents should communicate with the school teachersD. teens tend to behave rudely in a new school55. If this passage continues, what would the author further discuss?A. What a new school is like.B. Why parents move with their children.C. How parents and the school can help the children.D. How children can express their anxieties.第三部分书面表达(共两节,满分35分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

The professor passed out the papers. And smiles 29 on the students’ faces as they found there were only five questions.Three hours had passed 30 the professor began to collect papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was a frightened expression. Papers in hand, no one spoke as the professor faced the class. He looked at the 31 faces before him, and then asked: “How many completed all five questions?”32 a hand was raised.“How many answered four?” Still no hand.“Three?

As soon as he got home he rushed upstairs into loft (阁楼): there was a model ship there. Immediately he set out to model it after the Titanic. “So far I’ve seen the film 28 times,” said James, “ and I intend to see a 29th time.I can remember every detail. To get it to reappear, I’ve looked up a large number of materials.”Mr. Miller spent more than five months changing the ship. During the time so much attention did he pay to the ship that he took little care of food and his wife. Mrs. Miller was very sad and angry. On the very day when the model ship was completed, the coldly-treated woman pulled the ship to their swimming-pool, broke its bottom and sankit.Ja mes was very sad, saying, “My Titanic has sunk, and my heart is broken.”41.

Boat is the only transportation to Ellis IslandCBusiness activities are becoming increasingly worldwide as many firms spread their operations into markets abroad. Many U.S. firms, for example, are trying to enlarge markets by doing business in China, India, Latin America, and Russia and other Eastern European countries. Multinational Corporations (MNCs), which operate in more than one country, at once, especially move operations to wherever they can find the least expensive employees who are able to do the work well. Production jobs requiring only basic or repetitive skills — such as sewing, computer pieces — are usually the first to bemoved abroad. MNCs can pay these workers a small part of what they would have to pay in their countries, and often work them longer and harder. Most U.S. multinational businesses keep the majority of their upper level management, marketing and finance within the United States. They employ some lower level managers and a large number of their production workers in offices, factories, and buildings in developing countries. MNCs based in the United States have moved many of their production corporations to Central and Latin America, China, India, and Southeast Asia.Merger is also becoming more common than in the past. In the United States, for example, tobacco product and food producer R.J. Reynolds Industries bought food giant Nabisco Brands to form RJR Nabisco Holdings Corp, in 1985, and in 1995 the industrial power generator, electronics, and machine producer Westinghouse Electric Corporation bought media production company CBS Inc.49. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Business AbroadB. Modern Business DevelopmentC. Spread of MNCsD. Business in the Developing Countries50. Why do many U.S. firms move their factories to Central and Latin America, China, India, and Southeast Asia?A. To help those countries to develop their industries.B. To get rid of the gap between the poor and the rich.C. To produce more production.D. To gain more value from the cheap employees.51. The word “Merger” in the first sentence of the last paragraph refers to .A. joiningB. bargainingC. separatingD. competing52. What can we learn from the passage?A. Worldwide business will be popular.B. Employees will be inexpensive.C. People shouldn't work for foreign firms.D. Small companies should keep on preventing bei.DDavid Beckham was born in 1975 in London, at a place called Leytonstone. When he was a young boy, his greatest passion was in football. He played it whenever he had the chance. Sometimes he would go and watch a game with his friends. When David Beckham was 12 years old, he won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skills award(奖金). This was an important step forward for this young boy, and it led him to go for a visit to a football training camp in Spain. As a boy he played for schools of Essex and also for his county team.In 1991, he became a trainee with Manchester United. This meant that he could practice football as much as he wanted to and play for the highly successful Manchester United Youth Cup team and Under-21 team. In April, 1995 he played his first football league game against Leeds Untied. During 1995 and 1996, David became a regular member of the team and Manchester United won in both football seasons, with David scoring many goals.His goals made him a household name. In the first game of the 1996~1997 season, he scored an surprising goal from beyond the halfway line; seeing the goalkeeper a little wayout of his goal, Beckham became famous overnight. He continued to score astonishing goals, especially from free-kicks. The speed of one of his shots was timed at 157 kph. He also had the ability to make the ball go from left to right, or right to left, whenever he chose. Goalkeepers were never sure where the ball was going, and it regularly ended up in the goal.53.

At the start of the space programme there was strong resistance from some people against having women in space. However, some women were very keen to become astronauts and in the end they were successful. In 1978, NASA began the first training programme for women astronauts.Judy Resnick and Christa McAuliffe were both astronauts and they were both women, but in many other ways they were very different. Both of them were on Flight STS-5L-L.Judy Resnick was born in 1949 and studied engineering at university and went on to obtain a PhD in 1977. She was a member of the first group of women selected for astronaut training in 1978, and in 1984, she became the second woman in space. During that flight, she helped to launch three new satellites and she carried out a programme of research. She was, in many ways, a professional astronaut whose whole life was devoted to space travel.Christa McAuliffe was born in 1948 and she was an astronaut almost by accident. In 1984, NASA decided to find a teacher who could accompany astronauts into space. They hoped that she would be able to communicate with students from space and encourage every one of them to be interested in space travel.

As soon as he got home he rushed upstairs into loft (阁楼): there was a model ship there. Immediately he set out to model it after the Titanic. “So far I’ve seen the film 28 times,” said James, “ and I intend to see a 29th time.I can remember every detail. To get it to reappear, I’ve looked up a large number of materials.”Mr. Miller spent more than five months changing the ship. During the time so much attention did he pay to the ship that he took little care of food and his wife. Mrs. Miller was very sad and angry.

Boat is the only transportation to Ellis IslandCBusiness activities are becoming increasingly worldwide as many firms spread their operations into markets abroad. Many U.S. firms, for example, are trying to enlarge markets by doing business in China, India, Latin America, and Russia and other Eastern European countries. Multinational Corporations (MNCs), which operate in more than one country, at once, especially move operations to wherever they can find the least expensive employees who are able to do the work well. Production jobs requiring only basic or repetitive skills — such as sewing, computer pieces — are usually the first to be moved abroad. MNCs can pay these workers a small part of what they would have to pay in their countries, and often work them longer and harder. Most U.S. multinational businesses keep the majority of their upper level management, marketing and finance within the United States. They employ some lower level managers and a large numberof their production workers in offices, factories, and buildings in developing countries. MNCs based in the United States have moved many of their production corporations to Central and Latin America, China, India, and Southeast Asia.Merger is also becoming more common than in the past. In the United States, for example, tobacco product and food producer R.J. Reynolds Industries bought food giant Nabisco Brands to form RJR Nabisco Holdings Corp, in 1985, and in 1995 the industrial power generator, electronics, and machine producer Westinghouse Electric Corporation bought media production company CBS Inc.49. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Business AbroadB. Modern Business DevelopmentC. Spread of MNCsD. Business in the Developing Countries50. Why do many U.S. firms move their factories to Central and Latin America, China, India, and Southeast Asia?A. To help those countries to develop their industries.B. To get rid of the gap between the poor and the rich.C. To produce more production.D. To gain more value from the cheap employees.51. The word “Merger” in the first sentence of the last paragraph refers to .A. joiningB. bargainingC. separatingD. competing52. What can we learn from the passage?A. Worldwide business will be popular.B. Employees will be inexpensive.C. People shouldn't work for foreign firms.D. Small companies should keep on preventing bei.DDavid Beckham was born in 1975 in London, at a place called Leytonstone. When he was a young boy, his greatest passion was in football. He played it whenever he had the chance. Sometimes he would go and watch a game with his friends. When David Beckham was 12 years old, he won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skills award(奖金). This was an important step forward for this young boy, and it led him to go for a visit to a football training camp in Spain. As a boy he played for schools of Essex and also for his county team.In 1991, he became a trainee with Manchester United. This meant that he could practice football as much as he wanted to and play for the highly successful Manchester United Youth Cup team and Under-21 team. In April, 1995 he played his first football league game against Leeds Untied. During 1995 and 1996, David became a regular member of the team and Manchester United won in both football seasons, with David scoring many goals.His goals made him a household name. In the first game of the 1996~1997 season, he scored an surprising goal from beyond the halfway line; seeing the goalkeeper a little way out of his goal, Beckham became famous overnight. He continued to score astonishing goals, especially from free-kicks. The speed of one of his shots was timed at 157 kph. He also had the ability to make the ball go from left to right, or right to left, whenever hechose. Goalkeepers were never sure where the ball was going, and it regularly ended up in the goal.53. Which word can take the place of the und erlined word “passion” in Paragraph 1?A. successB. interestC. prizeD. skill54. The unusually surprising way that he scored goals______.A. helped him to gain many prizes for EssexB. kept him playing for Leeds UnitedC. offered him the chance to join the national teamD. made him popular in many British homes55. Which of the following shows the right order of what Beckham experienced?a. Beckham played his first football league game.b. Beckham won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skills award.c. Beckham played for Manchester United Youth Cup team.d. Beckham went to Spain to join a football training camp.e. Beckham played for the schools of Essex.A. e, d, a, c, bB. b, e, d, a, cC. e, b, a, d, cD. b, d, e, c, a56. The passage is mainly talking about______.A. how Beckham became a successful football playerB. what abilities Beckham had to score so many goalsC. when Beckham became famous all over BritainD. why Beckham could win in football league gamesEThe majority of astronauts(宇航员)from America have been men. At the start of the space programme there was strong resistance from some people against having women in space. However, some women were very keen to become astronauts and in the end they were successful. In 1978, NASA began the first training programme for women astronauts.Judy Resnick and Christa McAuliffe were both astronauts and they were both women, but in many other ways they were very different. Both of them were on Flight STS-5L-L.Judy Resnick was born in 1949 and studied engineering at university and went on to obtain a PhD in 1977. She was a member of the first group of women selected for astronaut training in 1978, and in 1984, she became the second woman in space. During that flight, she helped to launch three new satellites and she carried out a programme of research. She was, in many ways, a professional astronaut whose whole life was devoted to space travel.Christa McAuliffe was born in 1948 and she was an astronaut almost by accident. In 1984, NASA decided to find a teacher who could accompany astronauts into space. They hoped that she would be able to communicate with students from space and encourage every one of them to be interested in space travel. Christa was a secondary school teacher in history and social studies. She was a gifted teacher and she was selected from over, 11,000 applicants to go on flight STS-51-L.She was also a very good communicator and she immediately established a very good relationship with the news media(radio, television and newspapers). It was partly because of this that there was a great deal of interest and excitement about the flight.Thousands of students in schools and universities all around the country were looking forward to communicating with Christa in space. Millions of people were watching her flight with great interest. It is partly because of the excitement over McAuliffe’s place in the flight that the disaster in 1986 had such an effect on people.57. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that .A. Judy was against the idea of having women in space at firstB. Judy was the first woman selected for astronaut trainingC. Judy helped to launch three new satellites at the age of 35D. Judy carried out a programme during her second space travel58. Christa McAuliffe was chosen for training because .A. she was popular with the news mediaB. she expected to give history lessons in spaceC. she was an excellent teacher and communicatorD. she made the students in space very excited59. The reason why there was great interest in Flight STS-51-L is that .A. both Christa and Judy got PhD degrees in the same yearB. a young secondary school teacher was on the flightC. students were going to learn more about space travelD. it was the first time for women to travel in space605. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Two AstronautsB. Flight STS-51-LC. Traveling in SpaceD.

He played it wheneverhe had the chance. Sometimes he would go and watch a game with his friends. When David Beckham was 12 years old, he won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skills award(奖金). This was an important stepforward for this young boy, and it led him to go for a visit to a football training camp in Spain. As a boy he played for schools of Esse_ and also forhis county team.In 1991, he became a trainee with Manchester United. This meant that he couldpractice football as much as he wanted to and play for the highly successful Manchester United Youth Cup team and Under-21 team. In April, 1995 he played his first football league game against Leeds Untied. During 1995 and 1996, David became a regular member of the team and Manchester United won in both football seasons, with David scoring many goals.His goals made him a household name.

At the start of the spaceprogramme there was strong resistance from some people against having women inspace. However, some women were very keen to become astronauts and in the endthey were successful. In 1978, NASA began the first training programme for women astronauts.Judy Resnick and Christa McAuliffe were both astronauts and they were both women, but in many other ways they were very different. Both of them were onFlight STS-5L-L.Judy Resnick was born in 1949 and studied engineering at university and went on to obtain a PhD in 1977. She was a member of the firstgroup of women selected for astronaut training in 1978, and in 1984, she becamethe second woman in space. During that flight, she helped to launch three newsatellites and she carried out a programme of research. She was, in many ways,a professional astronaut whose whole life was devoted to space travel.Christa McAuliffe was born in 1948 and she was an astronaut almost by accident.In 1984, NASA decided to find a teacher who could accompany astronauts into space. They hoped that she would be able to communicate with students from space and encourage every one of them to be interested in space travel. Christawas a secondary school teacher in history and social studies. She was a giftedteacher and she was selected from over, 11,000 applicants to go on flight STS-51-L.She was also a very good communicator and she immediately establisheda very good relationship with the news media(radio, television and newspapers).It was partly because of this that there was a great deal of interest ande_citement about the flight.Thousands of students in schools and universities all around the country werelooking forward to communicating with Christa in space. Millions of people werewatching her flight with great interest. It is partly because of thee_citementover McAuliffe’s place in the flight that the disaster in 1986 had such aneffect on people.57. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that .A. Judy was against the ideaof having women in space at firstB. Judy was the first womanselected for astronaut trainingC. Judy helped to launchthree new satellites at the age of 35D. Judy carried out aprogramme during her second space travel58. Christa McAuliffe was chosen for training because .A. she was popular with the newsmediaB. she e_pected to give history lessons in spaceC. she was an e_cellent teacherand communicatorD. she made the students in spacevery e_cited59. The reason why there was great interest in Flight STS-51-L is that .A. both Christa and Judy got PhDdegrees in the same yearB. a young secondary schoolteacher was on the flightC. students were going to learnmore about space travelD. it was the first time for womento travel in space605. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Two AstronautsB. Flight STS-51-LC.

Kit Williams, a modern writer had the idea of combinign the real excitement of a treasure hunt with clues () found in a book when he wrote a children’s story, Masquerade, in 1979. The book was about a hare, and a month before it came out Williams buried a gold hare in a park in Bedfordshire. The book contained a large number of clues to help readers hind the hare, but Williams put in a lot of “red herrings” or false clues, to mislead them.Ken Roberts, the man who found the hare, had been looking for it for nearly two years. Although he had been searching in the wrong area most of the time, he found it by logic (), not by luck. His success came from the fact that he gained an important clue at the start. He had realized that the words: “One of Six to Eight” under the first picture in the book connected the hare in some way to katherione of Aragon, the first of Henry’s six wives. Even here, however, Williams had succeeded in misleading him. Ken knew that Kathrine of Aragon had died at Kimbolton in Cambridgeshire in 1536 and thought that Williams had buried the hare there. He had been digging there for over a year before a new idea occurred to him. He found out that Kit Williams had spend his childhood near Ampthill, in Bedfordshire, and thought that he must have buried the hare in a place he knew well, but he still could ot see the connection with katherine of Aragon, until one day he came across two stone crosses in Ampthill Park and learnt that they had been built in her honor in 1773.Even then his search had to come to end. It was only after he had spent several nights digging around the cross that he decided to write to Kit Williams to find out if he was wasting his time there. Williams encouraged him to continue, and on February 24th, 1982, he found the treasure. It was worth £3,000 in the beginning, but the excitement it had caused since its burial made it muchmore valuable.36.The underlined word “them” (paragraph 1) refers to ____.A. Red HerringsB. treasure huntsC. Henry VIIID. readers of Masquerade37.What is the most important clur in the story to help Ken Roberts find the hare?A.Tow stone crosses in Ampthill.B.Stevenson’s treasure islandlC.Katherine of Aragon.D.Williams’s hometown.38.The stone crosses in Ampthill were built ____.A.to tell about what happened in 1773B.to show respect for Henry VIII’s first wifeC.to serve as a roadsign in Ampthill ParkD.to inform people where the gold hare was39.which of the following describes Roberts’ logic in searching for the hare?a.Henry VIII’s six wives.b.Katherine’s burial place at Kimbolton.c.Williams’ childhood in Ampthill.d.Stone crosses in Ampthill Park.A. abcedB. dbceaC. adbceD. baecd40.What is the subject discussed in the text?A.An exciting historical event.B.A modern treasure hunt.C.The attraction of Masquerade.D.The importance of logical thinking.参考答案1~5 AACBB 6~10 DABDD 11~15 DCBBB 16~20 ADBDB 21~25 CACBD 26~30 CBABB31~35 CDCBD 36~40 DCBCB。

He wanted very much to take his soldiers into 19 , but between France and Italy there are high mountains called the Alps, 20 are covered with snow.“Is it possible to cross the Alps?” said Napoleon.The men who had been sent to look at the 21 over the mountains shook their heads.Then one of them said, “It may be possible, but…”“Let me hear 22 ,” said Napoleon. “23 to Italy.”People 24 the thought of an army of sixty thousand men 25 the Alps when there was 26 road. 27 Napoleon waited only to see that everything was in good order, and then he gave the 28 to march.The long line of soldiers and horses and cannons 29 for twenty miles. When they came to a 30 place where there seemed to be no way to go further, the trumpets(小号) sounded “ 31 !” Then every man 32 , and the whole army moved right forward.Soon they were 33 over the Alps. In the next four days they were marching 34 the plain of Italy. “The man who has made up his mind to win,”said Napoleon, “will never say: 35 .”16.A.lied B. had C. seemed D. lived17.A.his B. who’s C. whose D. which18.A.at war B. angry C. fought D. satisfied19.A.England B.

Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. Most children will "obey" instructions some time before they can speak, though the word "obey" is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. But since these can't be said to show the baby's intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add newwords to their store. This self-imitation leads to deliberate imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.It is a problem we need to get our teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the word. Thus the use at seven months of "mama" as a greeting for his mother can not be dismissed as a meaningless simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself.

However, when I needed a housekeeper I chose a girl called Cathey, a lovely little girl of seventeen from a village 52 the coast. But I made my choice 53 . After a few days’ consideration over the matter and an early telephone call to her, I 54 out there one day in my Fiat when she was at home, and I had a look at the cottage and a talk with her mother over a 55 of teas, and after that I did not need anyone to say that she was 56 . I knew if there was anything Cathey did not do 57 , her mother would not 58 long to correct her. After that there was only one question to raise.“Have you a 59 , Cathey?” said I.“No, doctor, I have not,” said she with a simple expression that did not 60 me a bit. As a doctor, you soon 61 innocent (无邪的) looks.“Well, you’d better 62 and get one.” I said,“ 63 I’m not going to take you.” At this she laughed. After what seemed only a short time, she came and started working at my house. And you guess 64 ? She proved to be very 65 and efficient (高效率的). Of course she was so 66 that people who came to my house used to 67 a remark about us. But that didn’t hurt me at all. They did not dare to 68 a pretty girl themselves in case that other people would say something. But I knew as long as a girl had a man of 69 to look after she would give me 70 . And, of course, I would be happy and at ease.51. A. an inclusion B. a conclusion C. an exception D. an invention52. A. up B. in C. to D. of53. A. carelessly B. slowly C. doubtfully D. carefully54.

I always promised myself that I’d get out as soon as possible. Now, at age 20, I have a good job and a nice house, and I’m really proud of the independence I’ve achieved.Here’s the problem: several of my friends who still live with their parents wish they had places like mine — so much so that they make mine theirs.It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me. But now they seem to take it for granted that they can show up any time they like. They bring boyfriends over, talk on the phone and stay out forever.I enjoy having my friends here sometimes — it makes the place feel comfortable and warm — but this is my home, not a party house. I was old enough to move out on my own, so why can’t I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy?JoanEdward’s reply to Joa nDear Joan:If your family didn’t pay attention to your needs when you were a child, you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now.And if you’ve gathered your friends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere, you may fear that saying no will bring back the kind of conflict you grew up with —or destroy the nice atmosphere you now enjoy. You need to understand that in true friendship it’s okay to put your own needs first from time to time.Be clear about the message you want to send. For example, “I really love your company but I also need some privacy. So please call before you come over.”71. We can learn from the first letter that Joan ________.A. lives away from her parentsB. takes pride in her friendsC. knows Mr. Expert quite wellD. hates her parents very much72. We can infer from the first letter that ________.A. Joan considers her friends more important than her privacyB. Joan’s friends visit her more often than she can acceptC. Joan doesn’t like the parties at allD. Joan dislikes the boyfriends her friends bring over73. According to Mr. Edward, why can’t Joan tell her friends her feelings?A. She is afraid of hurting her friends.B. She does not understand true friendship.C. Her family experience stops her from doing so.D. She does not put her needs first.74. The underlined word “conflict” in the second letter means________.A. dependent lifeB. fierce(激烈的)fightC. bad mannersD. painful feeling75. The second letter suggests that Mr. Edward ________.A. is worried about Joan’s problemB. warns Joan not to quarrel with her friendsC. advises Joan on how to refuse peopleD. encourages Joan to be brave enoughBSome scientists say that animals in the ocean are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings. The noise that affect sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.Decibels(分贝)measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect.Some scientists have proposed setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frightened and confuse whales.A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that loud noises can seriously injure some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales’ ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected.Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds object to a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists suspect that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.76. According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures?A. The man-made noises.B. The noises made by themselves.C. The sound of earthquakes.D. The sound of the ice-breaking.77. Which of the following is discussed in the second paragraph?A. Different places with different types of noises.B. The very human ears sensitive to all types of noises.C. The same noise measured differently on land and in the ocean.D. The oce an animal’s reaction to noises.78. As to the influence of noises on whales, which of the following statements is true?A. They are deaf to noises.B. Noises at a certain level may hurt them.C. They are easily confused by noises.D. Noises will limit their ability to reproduce.79. We can know from the passage that many scientists think that the noise limit of one hundred twenty decibels would______.A. prevent them from doing their research workB. benefit them a lot in their research workC. do good to their healthD. increase the industrial output80. According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?A. They will try their best to decrease noise.B. They will work hard to cut down noise pollution.C. They will study the effect of different noises.D. They will protect animals from harmful noises.IV、改错During the summer of 2001, I started reading booksin English, mostly stories.

I thought that Mary would jump on the luggage carrier (行李架) over the back tire when I was riding. Mom knew exactly what I was thinking. “Don’t ride the bike with Mary on the back,” she said. “It’s too dangerous. You could kill yourself. Take turns.”I nodded, but I was thinking I could handle this. A few minutes later, I turned right to a wide road. “Jump on the back,” I told Mary. I rode fast, laughin g as the wind blew through our hair. It was exciting, until the handlebar(车把) started shaking. The front tire dropped into a drain(下水道) and I fell off the bike, still holding the handlebar.My face, hands, and knees crashed into the pavement. The pain in my mouth was unbearable, and I tasted blood. I turned towards Mary who was on the ground, holding her knee and crying. Seconds later, it seemed that my mom’s car stopped next to us. I wanted Mom to say, “Oh, my poor sweetheart. Let me hug you and everyt hing will be fine.”However, my mom only said, “What have you done to your face? Vanessa,look at what you’ve done!” Mom wasn’t the gentle “I love you, sweetie” type.Sometimes, I thought Mom had no mercy. But in her own way, she was holding me tighter than I could understand — she was teaching me the lesson I needed. “You did it — deal with it and learn from it. One day, the consequences(后果) will be greater and I won’t be there to help you. Think it out, Vanessa.”36. We can learn from the text that .A.

In 1985, two days before he died, he gave that ticket to Cave —ticket number 00001. “It created a fascination (酷爱) with the bridge that I have t o this day,” says Cave. And it started him on a long journey towards another Harbour Bridge first.Cave came up with a simple but daring idea —lease (租用) the bridge from the government and allow ordinary people to climb Australia’s greatest icon. “I thought it would take two years,” says Cave, 63. “What appeared like a simple job turned into some very complex activities. But in business, you just have to keep going —it’s about having self-belief.” Indeed, it took him nine years and ten months to convince the NSW government to allow his dream to be a reality. “Six years were wasted dealing with some very restrictive officials,” says Cave. They threw difficulty after difficulty in his path with doubts over the safety of the climbers and the motorists below — the list went on and on.Through it all, Cave held the ticket tightly. It was a constant reminder of why, to Cave, this fight was worth winning. Finally, in 1995, came the breakthrough(突破) he’d worked for —a letter arrived from WorkCover, the state’s occupational health and safety insurer, backing his idea.Since opening on October 1, 1998, over 1.8 million people have climbed the 1,439 steps to the top of the bridge, making BridgeClimb a $50-million-a-year success and a major international tourist attraction.43. Cave at first thought his dream .A. was a hard taskB. was easy to come trueC. would get support from the governmentD. would become some complex activities44.
