For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 1 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 2 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 3 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 4 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 5 in the actual stuff of language itself —words. Taken individually, words have little meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 6 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing（退回）to 7 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over what you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 8 down the speed of reading is vocalization —sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 9 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined（预先确定的）speed．The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 10 the reader finds comfortabl e, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 11 word-by-word reading, regression andsub-vocalization（默读）practically impossible. At first 12 is sacrificed for speed．But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, but your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 13 reading skill drastically improved after some training .14 Charlie Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute before the training, now it is an excellent 128 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can 15 a lot more reading material in a short period of time.1． A．applying B．doing C．offering D．getting2． A．quickly B．easily C．roughly D．decidedly3． A．good B．curious C．poor D．urgent4． A．training B．habits C．situations D．custom5． A．lies B．combines C．touches D．involves6． A．Fortunately B．In fact C．Logically D．Unfortunately7． A．reuse B．reread C．rewrite D．recite8．A．scales B．cuts C．slows D．measures 9．A．accelerator B．actor C．amplifier D．observer 10．A．then B．as C．beyond D．than 11．A．enabling B．leading C．making D．indicating 12．A．meaning B．comprehension C．gist D．regression 13．A．our B．your C．their D．such a14．A．Look at B．Take C．Make D．Consider 15．A．master B．go over C．present D．get through1---15 DACBA DBCAD CBCBD1．D 本句意思是“谁如果想谋得一份差事”。

The subject of what separates art and design has been debated for a long time. Artists and designers both create visual works using a/an 1 knowledge background, but their reasons for doing so are 2 different. Some designers consider themselves artists, but few artists consider themselves 3 .So what exactly is the difference between art and design? Perhaps the most fundamental difference that we can all agree on is their 4 . Typically, the process of creating a work of art starts with nothing, a blank sheet of paper. A 5 of art is born from a view or value that the artist holds within himself or herself. They create the art to share that feeling with others, to 6the viewers to relate to it, learn from it or be 7 by it. The most renowned and successful art today is something that establishes the strongest 8 connection between the artist and their9 .By contrast, when a designer sets out to 10 a new piece, they almost always have a11 starting point, whether a message, an image, an idea or an action. The designer’s job isn’t to invent something 12 , but to communicate something that already exists, for a purpose. That purpose is almost always to motivate the audience to do something: buy a product, use a13 , visit a location, or learn certain information. The most 14 designs are those that most effectively 15 their message and motivate their consumers to carry out a task.▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█▉▊▋▌精诚凝聚 =^_^= 成就梦想▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█▉▊▋▌1.

Children model themselves largely on their parents. They do so mainly through identification.

While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have cereal, eggs and toast. Others had cokes and candy for lunch, while we had to eat a sandwich. As you can guess, my supper was different than the other kids’. But at least I was not alone in my suffering. My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.My mother insisted on knowing where we were at all times. She had to know who our friends were and what we were doing. We had to wear clean clothes every day. Other kids always wore their clothes for days. We reached the height of disgrace because she made our clothes herself, just to save money.The worst is yet to come. We had to be in bed by 9:00 each night and up at 7:45 the next morning. So while my friends slept, my mother actually had the courage to break Child Labor Law. She made us work. I believed she lay awake all night thinking up mean things to do to us. Through the years, our friends’ report cards had beautiful colors on them, black for passing, red for failing. My mother, however, would merely be content with black marks. None of us was allowed the pleasure of being a dropout.She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. Using this as a background, I’m now trying to bring up my three children. I’m filled with pride when my children think I am mean because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world.26.

Which of the following statements is Not true according to the passage ?A.Mother practised economy in running her homeB. T he writer is very thankful for her motherC.

The passage was written in a way of _________ tone.A. humorousB. hatefulC. ridiculousD. criticalBAs is reported, 113,000,000 Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card. They use credit cards in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and even abroad. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in different places, whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the "cashless society" is not on the horizon----it's already here.While computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cash registers(记录器) can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving. Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customer for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself.Many other companies, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas station to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.31. According to the passage, the credit card makes its owner to _______________ .A. withdraw as much money from the bank as he wishesB. obtain more convenient services than other people doC. enjoy greater trust from the storekeeperD. cash money where he wishes to32. From the last sentence of the first paragraph we learn that ______________.A. in the future all the Americans will use credit cardsB. nowadays many Americans do not pay in cashC. it is now more convenient to use credit cards than beforeD. credit cards are mainly used in the United States today33. The phrase “ring up sales” most probably means _______________.A. make an order of goodsB. record sales on a cash registerC. call the sales managerD. keep track of the goods in stock34. What is this passage mainly about?A. Approaches to the commercial use of computers.B. Conveniences brought about by computers in business.C. Significance of automation in commercial companies.D. Advantage of credit cards in business.35. It can be inferred that ________________.A. computers will bring disasterB. computer industry will not develop fasterC. computers will bring about more convenience to people’s lifeD. computers can only used in banksCDesigned specifically for kids that live online, Discovery announced a new fun and interactive homework tool that uses the power of broadband and media to help achieve academic breakthroughs at home.

But when I was on the stage, I thought of all your efforts to help me during the past few months and gradually calmed down. Although the question-and-answer section was the most challenging, I got through it quite smoothly by remembering all your suggestions. When the judge announced the result I was very excited but it was really a pity you were not there.Please accept my warmest thanks. I look forward to your return to China.Yours,Li Hua第二节读写任务V ersion 1In the passage the writer uses the story of the award-winning farmer who shares his best corn seed with his neighbours to teach us that we all can benefit when we co-operate and share with each other.It’s a really instructive story, which inspires me to think more. In our daily life, we face all kinds of difficulties. Everyone needs help and only those who are ready to help can get help fromothers.Take global and regional cooperation for example. As we know, countries are increasingly interdependent. When they work together to solve their problems the world becomes more stable. Trade and the economy improves and living standards for all increase. But if countries act selfishly, it will create distrust, poor economic and trade relations and may even lead to unrest and war, which hurts the people of all nations. If all the countries can cooperate with each other, draw on each other’s strengths and work together, the world will advance greatly and all the nations will share benefits and profit from balanced development.V ersion 2In the passage the writer uses the story of the award-winning farmer who shares his best corn seed with his neighbours to teach us that we all can benefit when we co-operate and share with each other.It’s a really instructive story, which inspires me to think more. In our daily life, we face all kinds of difficulties. Everyone needs help and only those who are ready to help can get help from others.Take for example the recent tragedy in Japan. The earthquake and tsunami have caused great damage to that country. Most serious is the damage to the nuclear power station that has caused radiation to leak into the atmosphere. If countries act selfishly and don’t help the Japanese, not only will the local people suffer, but the problems of radiation may spread to affect the rest of us. But if we all co-operate and help each other, then the problem can hopefully be solved, which will be of benefit not only to the Japanese people, but to the rest of the world as well.。

Where did you say they were?” he asked again, apparently 4 . Clearly the old man was somewhat 5 . “ Fourth floor, sir,” the friendly saleswoman replied patiently, this time so __6___ that customers turned to see what was causing the 7 .I continued watching as the man thanked the saleswoman and 8 for what I assumed was the fourth floor. But rather than walk to the 9 or the lift, he dashed behind a shelf, took out a notebook and started writing hurriedly, with an almost mad 10 on his face. Then he went straight up to another saleswoman and asked where the women’s shoes were sold. Again he asked her to 11 the answer and once more he walked away and took down some notes.He did this three more times before a department store 12 , thinking him mad, removed him from the store. But rather than be 13 , the old man departed with a huge smile on his face.

A regular customer had rushed him to her office after his pet dog brought the cat home in his mouth. The dog's owner was horrified, believing that his pet had caused the cat's injuries. But Kennon found no teeth marks or bite wounds, which showed that the dog had probably saved, not harmed, the kitten.In Kennon’s opinion, however, the cat was a hopeless case. Many doctors would have put down such a badly hurt animal. But she couldn’t be so cruel. The kitten’s bright eyes and sad face had won her over. There was no way of finding his owner, so Kennon, a single woman aged 56, decided to keep him.She gave him a round of shots and fed him food mixed with medicines. He couldn’t move his back legs but soon started pulling himself forward with his front legs. The doctor named him Scooter and contacted a company that makes carts for disabled animals. Scooter took to his newwheels like a natural. In no time he was able to move freely, if somewhat awkwardly, around Kennon’s office, home and even her backyard. The sight of the determined Scooter was uplifting and amusing in equal measure and Kennon had to smile each time the cat entered the room.Kennon was convinced that her kitten could share his high spirits with others. So she took Scooter to the local hospital to see if he could help the patients. His first patient was an elderly woman who’d had a stroke and hadn’t spoken to anyone for two days. Scooter jumped out of Kennon’s arms and onto the bed, rolled over to the patient, and lay gently near her cheek, purring softly. The woman looked at Scooter. “Kitty,” she murmured as she began to talk to him. Amazed, Kennon turned to the doctor--- and saw that she was in tears. The cat had engineered a small miracle.Today Scooter spends about ten hours a month working with patients who are recovering from strokes and injuries. Again and again, Kennon watches as her cat provides hope and comfort. As one patient who’d lost her leg in a car accident said, “If he can do it, so can I.”26. From Paragraph 1, we know that ___________.A. the do g’s owner was a stranger to KennonB. the cat had several bite marks on its bodyC. the dog was extremely cruel to the catD. who actually injured the cat was unknown27. The underlined phrase “put down” in Paragraph 2 most probably means___________.A. hurtB. killedC. refusedD. replaced28. Why did Kennon decide to keep the cat?A. She wanted a companion.B. The cat’s owner abandoned him.C. She liked the cat.D. The cat was hopeless.29. How did Kennon help the cat move around?A. By curing his broken back.B. By getting him a special cart.C. By feeding him medicines.D. By exercising him in her backyard.30. According to the passage, what is the main reason that the cat works miracle?A. He is able to inspire others.B. Patients feel sympathy for him.C. People are amused by his appearance.D.He has the ability to cure the ill.BWe each have a unique genetic(基因的，遗传的) make-up. Every cell of your body has the same set of about 100,000 separate genes made of DNA. These are the instructions for producing a person. Genes decide everything from the colour of your skin to the way your brain works. You have one of several billion combinations of DNA which come from the random mixing of your parents’genes. Except for identical twins(同卵双胞胎), no one has the same combination as another person. You are unique! You are unique in another way too: in the way you are raised and all the experiences you have from before birth to adult life. These experiences influence you, your behaviour and attitudes, and the choices you make.But are genes or life experiences more important in shaping your appearance and personality? Scientists are studying twins to find out. One set of twins occurs every 70births---some are identical and others are non-identical twins. Identical twins are special because they share exactly the same genes and often the same environment. Non-identical twins are more like ordinary brothers and sisters.Some identical twins have been adopted and brought up in different homes. With identical genes but a different home environment, scientists can study twins to see how much a particular feature depends on the genes we inherit. For example, we know that eye problems, like short-sightedness, are mostly genetic. But resistance to pain is largely dependent on experiences. Genes also influence our eating habits. Identical twins brought up apart often like to eat at the same time of day and feel full after eating the same amount. Non-identical twins in similar circumstances have more varied eating habits. Identical twins are also more likely to follow the same patterns for marriage and divorce than non-identical twins.Scientists are trying to identify the different genes that influence our behaviour. Some people are thrill-seekers and get into risk-taking and adventurous activities. They take up extreme sports like bungee jumping and possibly take drugs. Scientists have discovered a gene which affects this.We could ask, “Are our lives determined by our genes or our upbringing?” Scientists are learning more all the time, but it is certainly true that both are important in making us who we are.31. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. We cannot easily change our physical appearance.B. How we turn out depends on our parents’ genes.C. Everyone has a physical double somewhere in the world.D. Both our genes and our experiences make us who we are.32. Why are scientists studying twins?A. To find out how many twins are born every year.B. To discover what shapes us as individuals.C. To compare differences between twins.D. To study brother-and-sister relationships.33. According to the passage, __________.A. one in 70 twins are genetically identicalB. non-identical twins are usually not of the same sexC. twins separated at birth behave exactly the sameD. identical twins are genetically the same34. Which of the following is most affected by experience according the passage?A. Eating habits.B. Eye-sight.C. Pain resistance.D. Marriage patterns.35. What does the underlined “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Our love of sport.B. Our attitude to risk-taking.C. Our skill at bungee jumping.D. Our ability to take drugs.CAs you climb into the hill country, the roads get dustier and rougher, and fewer cars can be seen. Phonxay is one of the poorest districts of Laos, and many of its villages are only accessible by footpath. Our destination this hot morning is a concrete water tank that can be found just off the road. A UK organization helped to build it six years ago, and in the nearby village of Thapho, where clean drinking water is scarce, it has made a big difference. The tank feeds six taps which in turn give water to over 800 people---it has improved things for almost every family, from schoolchildren to grannies.But lately, we were told, the clean water supply has come under pressure from new arrivals, people who have come down from the hill areas, and there are concerns that there will not be enough clean water to go round.There are also serious worries about resources in Laos. The Chinese are building a 400km railway link, which could transform the landlocked country. About 150,000 Chinese workers will be involved. What will this do to local clean water supplies? How will the workers be fed?The vast majority of Laotians live on farms. But with foreign investors wanting to buy up land, local people will have to be moved to make room for them. Heavily dependent on both foreign aid and foreign investment, Laos still falls well behind its neighbours, although its economy has grown at about 6% a year in the last decade. Its biggest economic problem is the lack of locally trained skilled workforce.But there are reasons to be hopeful for the future. Laos is beautiful, and foreign tourism continues to grow: fortunately so far the fast-food chains and coffee bars common elsewhere are nowhere to be seen. Although all local media are government-run, the Internet is not controlled and the BBC and CNN are available to those with satellite dishes.The government has also achieved impressive results in rural development, with communities benefiting not just from cleaner water but the construction of new schools and regular visits from medical teams. Poverty will not be history in Laos within the next decade, but with small steps forward and a bit of outside help, the country could find itself out of the UN’s least-developed category by 2020.36.

But Theodor Seuss Geisel---better known as the children’s books author Dr. Seuss ---who came into the world on 2 March, 1904, was an unusual man.Like generations of children I was raised on his wonderful stories. But when I now read them to my children it’s not just the childhood memories I enjoy. His writing is brilliant and imaginative and flows with a self-confidence as sure as the words of a Shakespeare poem. Readers ride his characteristic rhythm with an effortless joy that cannot be matched by any other modern writer:You have brains in your headYou have feet in your shoesYou can steer yourself any direction you chooseAnd will you succeed?Yes indeed, yes indeed!Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed.Seuss’s brilliant cartoons and clever words make his books a delight for adults but they appeal most to children of course. His stories teach kids moral lessons but in indirect and entertaining ways.The first Seuss book I was given was The Lorax, written just as the 60s were becoming the 70s. Seuss was ahead of his time, and in this book the dawn of concern for environmental problems are shown as the Lorax “who speaks for the trees” battles against an evil businessman who wants to destroy the forest and make goods “which everyone needs”.It’s not only a warning of the heavy price of environmental destruction, written well before most people had thought to worry, but it’s also a smart analysis of consumer societies: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”This is of course a moral message, but not of the kind designed to persuade the youngsters into behavior that adults want.I could go on, but hey, it’s a birthday, and I’m sure you folks have some good toasts to raise for the party…41. What’s the purpose of this passage?A. To introduce Dr. Seuss’s life.B. To analyse Dr. Seuss’s books.C. To describe Dr. Seuss’s writing style.D. To celebrate Dr. Seuss’s achievements.42. Why does the author include Dr. Seuss’s poem?A. To encourage readers to use their brains and choose their own way.B. To give readers a sample of Seuss’s story The Lorax.C. To provide readers with an example of Seuss’s writing style.D. To explain how relevant Seuss’s stories remain today.43. Why do adults also enjoy Seuss’s books?A. His words and pictures are imaginative enough to be enjoyed by all.B. His books give children obvious moral messages to learn from.C. He writes about adult topics in a way that is understandable to children.D. He was the first person to write about the environment.44. When was the book The Lorax written?A. Early 1960s.B. Early 1970s.C. Late1960s. D. Late 1970s.45. Which of the following is true about Seuss?A. Many of the issues he discussed attractedgreater concern in later years.B.

Most readers thought his ideas were difficult to understand.第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）请阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。
