the lonely moors of Yorkshire, England, where they lived．Patrick Bronte, the sisters‘ father, was a poor Irishman who became the parish clergyman of the small, isolated town of Haworth, Yorkshire．Bronte was somewhat strange and inclined to be strict．His wife died in 1821 and her sister brought up the family conscientiously, but with little affection or understanding．The sisters went to several boarding schools where they received a better education than usual for girls at that time, but in a harsh atmosphere．Few jobs were available for women at that time, and the Bronte sisters, except for occasional jobs as governesses or schoolteachers, lived their entire lives at home．They were shy, poor, and lonely, and occupied themselves with music, drawing, reading and ---above all---writing．Their isolation led to the early developmnet of their imaginations．In 1846, under the masculine pen names of Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell, the sisters published a joint volume of poems．Although only two copies were sold, all three sisters soon had their first novels published．Charlotte Bronte‘s mo st famous novel Jane Eyre（1847）is largely autobiographical．Through the heroine, Charlotte relived her hated boarding school life and her experiences as a governess in a large house．Rochester, the hero and master of the house, is fictional．Jane Eyre was enoumously successful, but many readers were shocked that Rochester, who tried to make Jane his mistress, should be rewarded by marrying her．Some readers were also shocked because Jane wanted to be regarded as a thinking and independent person, rather than as a weak female．Charlotte Bronte wrote three other novels．The first one, The Professor, was not published until 1857, after her death．Shirley （1849）is set among the labour riots of the early 1800s．Villette （1853）the most popular of the three, is base d on Charlotte‘s unhappy experiences as a governess in Brussels．41．Of Charlotte Bronte‘s novels, which is the first published?A．Jane Eyre．B．The professor．C．Villette．D．Shirley．42．The underlined word ―autobiographical‖ in paragraph 3 most probably means _______．A．popular B．likely to cause sympathyC．relating to her own life D．concerning female issues43．We can infer from the passage that _______．A．the three sisters were badly treated by their step-motherB．The three Bronte sisters were brought up in IrelandC．Haworth was suffering high unemployment at the time of the three Bronte sistersD．writing was not meant for women in the 19th century in Britain44．In many readers‘ eyes, Rochester, _______．A．acted too arbitrarily towards JaneB．did not deserve to be Jane‘s husbandC．was too bad to be truthfulD．should be Jane‘s master as well as her husband45．What will probably be discussed in the coming paragraphs of this passage?A．The other two sisters‘ works．B．Charlotte Bronte‘s life in Brussels．C．What is talked about in the novel, Villette．D．Why their novels outweighed their poems．BLevi Strauss, who was born in 1830 and went to the USA at the age of 17, sat in the saloon and drank his beer slow ly．He began to think．Business was not good．Nobody wanted to buy anything．He thought about the canvas and the pots and pans on the wagon．Then he remembered the hole in Hank‘s trousers．Suddenly, he had an idea---―pants‖, he jumped up and shouted, ―Everyone needs pants．‖He hurried to a tailor and gave him all his canvas．―I want you to make pants with this canvas,‖he said．―Can you do that?‖―Yes, of course,‖ said the tailor,―What name is it? ‖―Strauss．Levi Strauss．‖It was the beginning of jeans．Now more than a hundred years later, people wear jeans all over the world and everyone knows the name of Levi Strauss．In the 1860s, farmers, rail-road workers, cowboys and miners helped to develop the new land．Life was hard．They worked for long hours in all kinds of weather．They wore trousers made by Levi Strauss．They were the first people to wear jeans in America．Jeans first came to Europe with the American soldiers during World War II．Soon, workers in Europe were wearing them．Workers liked them: they were cheap, hardwearing and practical．They were not popular with young people generally until the late 1950s and early 1960s．It came suddenly．It started in America and it crossed the Atlantic quickly．It was a new kind of music, a new kind of dance．Rock‘ n Roll．The king of Rock‘ n Roll was Elvis Presley．Teenagers loved him．At home he wore a T shirt, an old leather jacket and blue jeans, so more and more teenagers began to wear jeans．They liked them tight．46．The word canvas in the passage most probably means ．A．material made of cotton, soft and cheapB．something made out of wool, warm and expensiveC．strong, rough cloth, cheap and hardwearingD．a piece of the material for special purpose47．All the following statements are true except ．A．Jeans could first be seen in Europe during World War IIB．Jeans were not popular with all the American people until the late 1950s and early 1960s C．Many people show interest in jeansD．Farmers, railroad workers, cowboys and miners were the first people to wear jeans in America48．Which of the following is the right order in jeans‘ spreading?a．More and more teenagers began to wear jeans．b．More than a hundred years later people wear jeans all over the world．c．Farmers, railroad workers, cowboys and miners started to wear jeans．d．Soon, workers in Europe were wearing jeans．e．Not until the late 1950s and early 1960s were jeans popular with young people．f．Levi Strauss had jeans made at 17．A．f,c,d,b,e,a B．c,d,f,e,a,b C．a,c,d,e,b,f D．f,c,d,e,a,b 49．Jeans became popular among the teenagers because ________．A．they were cheap, hardwearing and practicalB．they liked them tightC．their idol liked wearing themD．they just came out like a new kind of music, a new kind of dance．50．The best title for the passage can be __ ．A．Levi Strauss, First Man to Invent JeansB．The Best Trousers—JeansC．How Jeans Comes Out And SpreadsD．Reasons for Jeans‘ SpreadingCHot weather makes your heart pum p harder, and if you‘re not very fit, you start to understand why the majority of mountain rescue statistics are made up from summer walkers suffering heart attacks．Heat exhaustion is quite easy to get when you're making a great physical effort．It happen s where your body can‘t produce enough sweat to keep you cool．The answer is to keep up your water intake．It‘s a good idea to drink a pint of water for every 10 degrees Fahrenheit every 24 hours．So, if the temperature is in the 70s, and you are doing a five-hour walk, you‘ll need a minimum of around one and a half pints of water．It‘s vital that you don‘t wait until you develop a raging thirst before you stop for a drink --- keep taking regular swigs from your water bottle．Given that evaporation （蒸发）is your body‘s cooling mechanism, you can help things along with an external application of water．Soaking your hat with water is a great way to cool the head, though if the sun is beating down, it will probably dry off almost immediately．Better still then if you can plunge into a river or the sea fully-clothed．And if that's not possible, then at least take off your boots and socks and paddle in a cool stream．Walking in the heat increases the rate at which your feet swell, which can lead to them feeling tight in your boots．Cool water from a stream reduces any swelling and helps general foot comfort．At the same time, you can check out your feet for signs of blisters．Extra sweating makes the skin softer and increases the chance of blisters forming, in the same way as when water leaks into your boots and gets to your feet．As for what clothing you wear, this should be lightweight and reasonably loose-fitting．Tight clothing will feel uncomfortable and may even lead to the formation of an irritating rash known as ‗prickly heat‘ on your skin．The answer, if this does develop, is to tryand stay cool as much as possible．Do this by either keeping in the shade, or washing the affected area with cold water, but without soap．But prevention is by far the best approach, so keep your clothing light．It‘s understandable to want to remove any extraneous clothing when it‘s extremely hot, but it doesn‘t really make much sense to take off T-shirts．The sun‘s rays can be quite strong, and shoulders are always very sensitive to sunburn．This is the worst place to be red and sore when you are wearing a heavy rucksack on your back．Wearing shorts can also create problems for walkers, as the backs of the legs can catch the sun very easily．In fact, those days when an apparently harmless breeze is blowing can be the most deceptive．It might not feel so hot, so you probably won‘t notice the damage being done so soon．As on every other day then, a good strong sun cream should therefore be applied to any skin which is exposed．Make the most of the summer, but treat the sun with the respect it deserves．51．The writer says that hot weather ______．A．is the main cause of heart attacksB．requires walkers to have frequent drinksC．is the worst type of weather for mountain walkingD．ensures that mountain walkers stay fit52．―it‖ in paragraph 3 refers to ______．A．the sun B．your hat C．the head D．water 53．According to the text, when might your feet suffer?A．When they cool down．B．If you are wearing tightly-fitting boots．C．When they are wet．D．If you have to walk through water．54．What does the writer mean by ‗extraneous‘ clothing in paragraph 6?A．Clothing no longer needed to keep you warm．B．Clothing considered unusual in hot weather．C．Clothing which is too tight．D．Clothing which is too heavy to wear．55．According to the writer, when are walkers particularly at risk from the effects of the sun?A．When they are unaware of the heat．B．If their sun cream is not strong enough．C．When there is a strong wind．D．If they have suffered an injury．DA few years ago, pop poets such as Murray Lachlan Young began to set poetry to rock music with some surprising results．People thought that poetry was the new rock ‗n‘ roll．However, despite the brief popularity of a few pop poets, poetry and pop music didn't seem to mix．But are they really so different?If you look back at the origins of poetry, there is a strong connection between poems and popular music．In Greek mythology, for example, the muse （女神）Erato is pictured with a lyre （里拉琴）in her hand, and looks just like the ancestor of the modern rock star with his electric guitar．In addition, the poets Shelley and Byron were as famous in the nineteenthcentury as the pop stars of today．But despite their common origins, there are many differences between poetry and pop music．Pop songs are always written for a public performance, whereas poetry often isn‘t．And the lyrics in pop songs sometimes have less rhythm than those in poetry．This is because the music provides the rhythm rather than the words．Pop lyrics are also simpler and often keep on saying the same thing．This repetition works well in a performance and means that pop songs are easier for people to sing and learn by heart．Both songs and poems tell a story or talk about feelings．Songs in particular deal with the different stages in a relationship, such as falling in love or breaking up．The words and ideas in songs are usually easier to understand than those in ―serious‖poetry．However, talented performers like Paul McCartney, or newer stars like Robbe Williams, often give simple songs more expression when they perform them．And some of the best lines from pop lyrics are as beautiful as poetry．So although pop music and poetry have many differences, they do have one important thing in common: the power to make us think about how we feel．56．What is the best heading for paragraph 4?A．A common beginning．B．An unsuccessful experiment．C．Some differences．D．A similar message．57．According to the article, what is the difference between poetry and pop songs?A．Pop songs are not always performed before an audience．B．Pop songs are more difficult to understand than poetry．C．The words in pop songs are repeated over and over again．D．There is more rhythm in pop songs than poetry．58．What did Murray Lachlan Young do a few years ago?A．He came up with a way of making poetry more popular．B．He surprised people with his beautiful style of writing．C．He wrote music for poems．D．He invented a new kind of poem．59．The writer compares Erato to a _____．A．Greek hero B．a classical musicianC．a present day poet D．a relative of a pop star60．What does the writer say about talented performers today?A．They look at poetry to find ideas for their songs．B．They think their songs are more serious than poetry．C．They give songs more meaning when they sing them．D．They consider themselves to be more popular than poets．第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

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 6 the 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 their 9 .By contrast, when a designer sets out to 10 a new piece, they almost always have a 11 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 a 13 , 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.1. A. unique B. separate C. shared D. accepted2.

第二节读写任务（共1小题，满分25分）Blogging has become increasingly popular among m iddle school students. Some view it as a great way to share ideas and motivate students, while others fear it will interfere with students’ study.There are arguments both for and against student-blogging. O n the negative side, if students blog too frequently it may interfere with their study. And if the y are completely unsupervised, some inappropriate topics may be discussed. On the other hand, blogging allows students the chance to write about the things that ar e most important to them. Because they are interested in those topics, they will be more motiva ted to write, thus practicing their skills. It will also give the blog-readers the chance to practice their reading skills, too. Furthermore, blog-based discussions will help to develop students’ ability to think independently and communicate with others. For these reasons, I am generally a big supporter of student-blogging. Of course, there have to be some limits such as parents monitoring their children to make sure they don’t spend too much time on it and the subje cts discussed are suitable.。

Also, some technical defects, the 11 of taking notes and monochromatic display, make the eBook fail to meet the expectations of students and teachers.“There’s still a/an 12 way to go before the eBook really plays an important role in education,” said the headmaster.According to Yuan, the annual average income of a 13 family in Yangzhou is about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and neither the parents nor the school can afford the 2,000 yuan14 book.The school doesn’t allow the students to take their eBooks to their homes.

He knew 17 would happen when his classmates found out. He looked up and there came the teacher with 18 look in her eyes that said he 19 (discover).As the teacher was walking towards 20 , a classmate named Susie was carrying a goldfish bowl full of water to her desk. Suddenly, Susie tripped(绊倒)and, 21 (strange), dumped the whole bowl of water in Jim’s lap. He pretended to be angry, but all the while he was saying deep in his heart, “Thank you!”Jim became the object of sympathy instead of ridicule. The teacher brought him gym shorts to put on. All the others crawled(爬) on their hands and knees, 22 (clean) up around his desk. But 23 life would have it, the ridicule that should have been his had been transferred(转移) to Susie. She tried to help, 24 they told her to leave the room 25 school was over, Jim walked over to Susie and whispered, “You did that on purpose, didn’t you?”Susie whispered back, “I wet my trousers once, too!”第三节阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)AIt’s a goal for millions and millions of families every year——keep the Christmas spending within a certain amount, but can still afford the gifts that your loved ones will enjoy. Never has this concern been greater in recent years than right now. Even so, there are several things that you can do to help.Hit the sales.No one wants to get up at four o’clock in the morning and fight to get the best deal on Black Friday, and it’s surely very tough to pick up the courage and get out there in the cold for a good deal, but sometimes——it can be well worth. Many retailers(零售商) offer specials all through the day——and some even offer online Black Friday specials, so you may still be able to get a great deal on Black Friday.Pay close attention to advertisements.Once the Christmas shopping season is coming, retailers hungry for business will do just about whatever to get you in the store. Pay very close attention to weekly advertisements of sales among the major retailers and you may be lucky enough to find different prices for the same thing in different shops. iShop online.Some of us don’t like running from store to store in order to get the best price on the perfect gift, and some of us don’t like to go out in the cold at all——thankfully for us, we can do online shopping.The world of online shopping lets people visit all the major retailers as well as some specialty stores that could only be found on the Internet. Customers can find exactly what they are looking for, at the best possible price without ever having to leave the house. With traditional Christmas shopping consumers are sometimes limited to what’s left in stock if they wait too long to get to a particular store.26. The first paragraph implies that ______.A. nowadays not many people can afford expensive giftsB. recently many people don’t want to spend money on giftsC. Christmas is a time to make our loved ones enjoy their giftsD. Christmas is a time to make us feel free to buy our loved ones gifts27. In the writer’s opinion, it is rewarding on Black Friday _____.A. if the weather is not very coldB. if we don’t have to fight for the best dealsC. if we don’t have to get up earlyD. If we get what we want at a good price28. The underlined word “specials” means_______.A. some experts in shoppingB. certain things for especially low priceC. some kind of help for a certain customerD. things that can only be found on Friday29. We can have more choices _____.A. on Black FridayB. in a particular storeC. on the InternetD. from retailers30. In this passage the writer means ______.A. to tell us the best way to do shoppingB. to attract more readers to do wise shoppingC. to show us how hard it is to do Christmas shoppingD. to give us advice on how to get a good deal at Christmas timeBMany people influenced various aspects of my life, based on their personal characteristics, accomplishments, and values. I have been fortunate to have had numerous teachers and professors who I respect for their patience and intelligence. There are artists that have inspired me by their natural talents and original creativity. I value many political leaders, who have inspired me by their contributions to society, and their ability to change our futures. But of all the people I have known in my life, the person I admire most is my father.As the youngest girl in my family, I always considered myself to be “Daddy’s little girl”. While I grew up, it always made me sad to see so many of my friends and neighbors without a father or father-like figure around. This helped me appreciate how my father always takes an interest in his children’s lives. In every aspect of my life my father continuously pushes me to excel, so I could accomplish my work outstandingly among my people. Whenever I feel like giving up, or have a question or a concern, I know I can always call on him for advice. From him I have also learned that sometimes you have to put others’ needs ahead of your own, but you should make sure you are not taken advantage of by others. His strength seems to be unbreakable during hard times, and he is extremely determined to accomplish anything he sets his mind on, no matter how tiny it is. I highly respect him for how he stands up for what he believes in, and will never back down. I have always admired his open mind, compassion(同情)for people, and sense of understanding. He is a very reserved man, but to everybody’s surprise, he has a great sense of humor, and always knows how to put a smile on the faces of his wife, his children and his friends.Living in his affection and instruction, I am very proud of my father. He also professes(声称) how proud he is of his children, and is still there to support us in whatever we are involved in.31. What is the best title for the passage?A. How my father loved meB. My father—the person I admire mostC. I am the apple on my father’s palmD. My father—the one who influenced me most32. Which of the following could not be used to describe the author’s father?A.

Do better than others.B. Show off.C. Be cleverer than others.D. Keep healthy34. According to the underlined part, the father was telling the author to ____.A. try to be good to those who were worth making friends withB. try to take advantage of those who were friendly to herC. think about others and help them, so that she could make them server herD. think about others and help them, but not to be made use of in a negative way35. What can we infer about the author?A. She appreciated her father because he solved all the problems for her.B. She considered her father humorous and was often made to laugh by him.C. She had sympathy for the fatherless.D. She was outstanding in work because her father pushed her hard.CAt a primary school in a small town in the east of South Carolina, second-grade teachers Garneau and Lynne are convinced that separating elementary-age boys and girls produces immediate academic improvement in both genders(性别).David Chadwell, South Carolina’s coordinator of single gender education says, “Boys and girls learn, hear and respond to their surroundings differently. We can teach boys and girls based on what we now know.”Male and female eyes are not organized in the same way, he explains. The composition of the male eye makes it sensitive to motion and direction. “Boys interpret the world as objects moving through space,” he says.The male eye is also drawn to cooler colors like silver and black. It’s no accident boys tend to create pictures of moving objects instead of drawing the happy colorful family, like girls do in their class.The female eye, on the other hand, is drawn to warmer colors like red, yellow and orange. To attract girls, Chadwell says, the teacher doesn’t need to move as much as in boy’s class. Using descriptive phrases and lots of colors in presentations or on the blackboard gets their attention.Boys and girls also hear differently. “When someone speaks in a loud tone, girls interpret it as yelling,”Chadwell says. “They think you’re mad and can shut down.”Girls are more sensitive to sounds. He advises girls’ teachers to watch the tone of their voices. Boys’ teachers should sound more forceful, even excited.A boy’s nervous system causes him to be more cautious when he is standing, moving, and the room temperature is around 69 degrees Fahrenheit. Stress in boys, he says, tends to increase blood flow to their brains, a process that helps them stay focused. Girls are more focused when seated in a warmer room around 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Girls also respond to stress differently. When exposed to threat and conflict, blood goes to their guts(肠道), leaving them feeling nervous or anxious.These differences can be applied in the classroom, Chadwell adds. “Single gender programs are about maximizing the learning.”36. What is David Chadwell’s attitude toward separating elementary-age boys and girls whilelearning?A. SupportiveB. WorriedC. ConcernedD. Uninterested37. To engage boy in a class, the teacher ______.A. must have a moving object in this handB. needs to wear clothes in warm colorC. has to speak politelyD. had better move constantly while teaching38. Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?(①= Paragraph 1 ②= Paragraph 2 ③= Paragraph 3 ….. ⑧= Paragraph 8)①A. B. C. D.39. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Ways of teaching boys and ways of teaching girlsB. Boys and girls should be separatedC. How boys and girls learn differentlyD. How to teach more effectively40. Which of the following students is most likely to be focused?A. A boy sitting in a warm roomB. A standing boy who is faced with stressC. A girl standing in a cold roomD. A girl who is facing a lot of pressureDRecently a man came to me, because he was told that there is fluid (积液) around his heart. After trying many drugs which were of no use to reduce the fluid, the doctor told him the only other choice was to have an operation. He refused because he knew that every illness has a mental cause and that if he had the operation but did not clear the mental cause, the fluid would return. At last, he searched the Internet to find a metaphysical healer (玄学治疗师), and he found me.The mental cause of his disease was an experience of breaking up five years ago with several friends, whom he had known for over twenty years. This experience broke his heart. Not knowing how to “mend ” his broken heart, his body created a “repair ” by surrounding his heart with fluid to protect it from the sad feelings.Our work focused on reminding him of the feelings of being loved and forgiving his friends. Months later, his hearts was mended and the fluid disappeared. He left my office after the final session with a smile on his face and a spring in his step.The key is: to create a healthy body, you must be healthy not only in body, but also in mind. To be mentally healthy, you need to build up strong relationships. Creating strong relationships will insure that you are accompanied by a network of loving persons. It is important for building a support system that lifts your spirits. Even when you are alone, you will not feel lonely or upset. Strong relationships are not spaceships ——they are not hard to build.41. In order to cure his illness, which of the following ways did the patient try?① taking many medicines ② having an operation③ seeing a metaphysical healer ④ visiting different doctorsA. ②③B. ①③C. ①②③D. ①②③④42. The underlined word “It ” in Paragraph5 refers to “________”.A. a mentally healthy bodyB. a repaired heartC. a network of loving personsD. a support system43. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Loving others will keep you in good spirits.B. Heart illness can be cured without operation.C. Creating strong relationships will keep you healthy.D. Spiritual health is necessary for physical health.44. Which of the following views may the writer agree to?③ ⑦④ ⑤ ⑥ ⑧ ① ② ① ⑥ ④ ③ ⑤ ⑦② ④ ③ ① ② ⑤ ⑥ ⑦ ⑧A. Old friendship is easy to lose.B. A good friendship is a useful medicineC. The best doctor is your own bodyD. It needs many efforts to build relationships45. If this passage is continued with another paragraph, what would it be probably about?A. How to build strong relationshipsB. How to protect your heartC. How to keep healthy mentallyD. How to live a healthy life第二节信息匹配(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

The pursuit of lasting happiness has long been a subject of interest for scientists and surveys alike. But what makes us really happy and what lasting benefits does happiness have?Well, earlier this month, 1 from the University of Illinois found the people who are happy and 2 about life live longer. The researchers found "clear and compelling evidence" that happiness is key when it comes to better health and 3 life spans.Last month a British study, which tracked members of 40,000 4 across the country, concluded that eating a family meal at least three times a week is the key to happiness because it helps build a/an 5 bond between parents and their children.But happiness might be 6 when you are born. Names can apparently predict how happy we are as individuals, with researchers at Manchester Metropolitan University claiming in 2011 that people called Judy and Joshua 7 life the most Ben, Andrew and Edward were seen as 8 names on the other hand.Married couples are most 9 to be happy with their 10 , according to the study, which also found that the happiest relationships are those less than five years old between two university graduates who have no children.Research has also suggested that happiness begins at 50. A study from Stony Brook University, New York, found that stress, anger and 11 fade after your 50th. Women were also reported to 12 greater stress, worry and sadness at all ages.Money makes the world go round, but it is not the key to happiness, according to other studies. In 2010, a survey from the office for National Statistics found that British families were healthier and twice as well off as they were 20 years ago, but are no happier.However, other studies have found money can buy you happiness after all, but only if you 13 . it wisely.14 , that might be why a good holiday can 15 your happiness levels "for up to two months" after-although the break has to be "very relaxing" to have such an effect.1 wyers B.teachers C.scientists D.accountants2 A.positive B.negative C.pessimistic D.doubtful3 A.shorter B.quicker C.longer D. slower4 A.schools panies C.churches D.families5 A.strong B.healthy C.friendly D.interesting6 A.created B.decided C.invented D.made7 A.enjoy B.hate plain D.question8 A.popular B.unpopular mon D.miserable9 A.likely B.unlikely C.lucky D.possible10 A.career B.health C.income D.relationships11 A.tiredness B.pain C.worry D.illness12 A.enjoy B.suffer C.prefer D.get13 A.spend B.cost C.take D.save14 A.Actually B.Fortunately C.Consequently D.Accidentally15 A.change B.Prove C.improve D.reduce第二节语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在答卷标号为16-25的相应位置上。

Let’s see what all the fuss 激动is about.Telegraph writer Tom Chiver’s first example is from the end-of-the-world movie Independence Day; in which a characte comes up with a virus capable of destroying Windows;t he computer system the alien spacecraft uses. “It’s a good thing they didn’t have Norton Antivirus;” jokes Chivers.It’s ju st one case of a movie that takes a lot of license with its science. Another one Chivers mentions is from Star Wars; where glowing beams of light traveling throuth space look very impressive. The problem is that in space there are no air particles 粒子for the light to reflect off. In reality; they’d be invisible; which wouldn’t look so cool on the big screen.Chiver’s second piece of Star Wars nonsense is the sound the fighters make in the movies: “the bellow 咆哮of an elephant mixed with a car driving o n a wet road”. But sound needs a medium 介质to travel through; like air. In space;there wouldn’t actually be any sound at all.Few people would deny that the mind-bending Matrix films make for great viewing; but for Chives;the science in the movies is a little silly.And finally: as Chivers points out; DNA is not replaceable. But this bit of elementary genetice遗传学passed the makers of the 2002 Bond film Die Another Day by. In the film the villain 坏人has “gene therapy 疗法” to change his appearance and his DNA; which is completely impossible.31. According to the passage;which of the following statement is trueA.Independence Day is about the independence of the United States.B. The Daily Telegraph has published on unconvincing scenes in some movies.C. Both Star Wars and Die Anothe Day are movies about space fights.D.

The author develops the passage by the following skills_________.A. giving a definitionB. listing numbersC. making comparisonD.giving examples34. According to this pessage; we can infer that the author’s attitude is______________.A. negativeB. objectiveC. subjectiveD. supportive35. This passage can probably appear in _______________.A. a trvelling jounalB. a science magazineC. an encyclopediaD. a movie magazineCWhen I was a young man just out of law school and eager to get on with my life; on a whim 心血来潮I briefly put aside my reading preference for fiction and history and bought one of those how-to books: How to Get Control of Your Time and Your Life; by Alan Lakein. The book’s main point was the necessity of listing short-; medium-; and long-term life goals; thencategorizingthem in order of their importance; with the A group being the most important; the B group next; and the C the last; that listing under each goal specific activities designed to achieve them.I still have that peperback book; now almost thirty years old. And I’m sure I have that old list s omewhere buried in my papers; though I can’t find it. However; I do remember the A list I wanted to be a good man; have a good marriage and children; have good friends; make a successful political life; end write a great book. Whether I’m a good man is; of course; for God to judge. I know thai I am not as good as my strongest supporters believe or as I hope to become; nor as bad as my harshest critics assert. I have been graced beyond measure by my family life with Hillry and Chelsea. Like all families’ liv es; ours is not perfect; but it has been wonderful Its flaws; as the whole world knows; are mostly mine; and its continuing promise is grounded in their love.No person I know ever had more or better friends. Indeed; a strong case can be made that I rose to the presidency on the shoulders of my personal friends; the now legendary FOBs. My life in politics was a joy. I loved campaigns and loved governing; I always tried to keep things moving in the right direction; to give more people a chance to live t heir dreams; to lift people’s spirits; and to bring them together. That's the way I kept score.36. Who is the author of the how-to book the author has mentioned in the passageA. FobsB. ChelseaC. HillaryD. Alan Lakein.37. Where can you probably find such a passageA. Story-books.B. Fiction stories.C. Autobiography.D. Daily newspapers.38. Which statement is NOT true according to the passageA. The author was young when he graduated from a law school.B. The author always tried to prevent things going wrong.C. The author is sure that he has still got that old list of goals.D.The author did not like being a leader of any kind.39. The underlined word“assert” in the second paragraph has the closest meaning to that of______A. understandB. claimC. supportD. judge40. Why do you think the author wrote this passageA. He wrote it for literature because he likes reading.B. He wrote it because he wanted to be president.C. He wrote it to draw a brief conclusion of his life and principles of politics.D. He wrote it just to make a complaint about those who did not support him.DLast year a single letter written by Albert Einstein was sold for more than $400;000. Butcould an e-mall printout or an electronic file reach similar heights That’s the question facingthose who deal in the literary artifacts.手工艺品of public figures; as they struggle to work out how to do business in the electronic world where information can be copied and spread out more easily than ever before.“Booksellers; collectors and libraries are already trading in digital; objects;” Joan Winterkorn;an antiquarian and the bookseller Bernard Quaritch told people present at the Digital Lives conference at the British Library earlier this week. When Emory University Library bought author Salman Rushdie’s archives 档案in 2006; it received a desktop computer; three laptops; a hard drive and a smart phone along with his paper files. And the writer John Updike; who died last month; started using computers in the 1980s; Winterkom pointed out; so his “papers” will include a big store of electronic documents.So far; however; digital archives have been traded as just a small part of a larger; mainly paper-based archive; and to date the paper parts have largely driven the highest prices. Indeed; no one is quite sure how much the digital documentes of a historical figure are worth.“I don’t feel the same way about the printout of an e-mail as I do a letter;”said Gabriel Heaton; a literary manuscript specialist; adding that more real digital objects were easier for auctioneers 拍卖商to price and sell. “What about a laptop For example; the one used by JK Rowling to write Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in an Edinburgh cafe has real value;”he said; “because she used it;”Even if the hard drive had been cloned by a library; the artifact would still he valuable. Barack Obama’s Blackberry will likely make some collectors very happy in future.Although some auctioneers and booksellers suggested that digital archives would end up being valued at levels close to their paper ones; Gordon Bell; from Microsoft Research; suggested that prices should actually fall to almost nothing. “Once it’s been copied and spread out the value is gone. It’s just a piece of memory.”41. What is the main idea of this passageA. The passages talks about the value of some antiques.B.The passage tells us how important the digital archives are.C. The passage reveals how people think about the paper-based archives.D. The passage mainly deals with different attitudes toward the value of both paper-basedand digital archives.42. According the passage; which one of the following statements is TRUEA. Booksellers and collectors refuse to sell and buy digital objects.B. Digital archives are more popular in trading than paper-based ones.C. In Gabriel Heaton’s opinion; an old computer used by a famous writer can be valuable.D.

They named their practice the Independent Project.Their guidance counselor was their adviser; consulting with them when the group met an obstacle. Though they sought advice from English; math and science teachers; they were responsible for monitoring one another’s work. There were no grades; but at the end of the semester; the students wrote evaluations of their classmates. The students also designed their own curriculum课程表．The project was a success. After returning to their conventional study; the students are highly motivated and are doing well.

Students may apply early and ask the university to hold their place when they take a gap year. Not only is it a valuable opportunity for them to grow up; but it helps gain life experience and become better prepared for college life. This year; however; thousands Of students have given up their gap year in order to go straight to university for the reason that tuition fees are increasing sharply next year. Some experts are anxious about the phenomenon due to the thought that it will bring about bad influences while those students are bunting for jobs.任务型写作：Apossible version:Independent Project was run by some students in Massachusetts where they arranged their own study and evaluated each other with the help of teachers. It proved the importance of students’ taking control of their own study.Similar to their practice; my desk mate Jack and I tried to compete and cooperate at the beginning of Senior Three. We made our own plans; answered each other’s questions; and decided that once a week; we would gather and talk about our progress and obstacles in study. Sometimes we had to fight against the tight schedule and piles of homework; but we both agree it’s really helpful.Judging from my painful experience and this successful one; I think letting students arrange and control their own study has both advantages and disadvantages. Obviously; it can greatly motivate the students who fall behind and lose their confidence to go on. It also provides much freedom for those accomplished ones not to be held back by regular curriculum. But we had to admit that students are not mature enough to know what is best for them.Therefore; I suggest that students should be given more opportunities to take control of their own study based on the guidelines Provided by the experienced teachers. Only in the way can they be clear about their goals and keep their passion for study.。

AFarmer Joe was in his cart when he was hit by a truck. He decided his injuries from the accident were serious enough to take the trucking company to court. In court the trucking company's lawyer was questioning Farmer Joe. "Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'?" said the lawyer.Farmer Joe answered, "Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule Bessie into the...""I didn't ask for any details," the lawyer interrupted. "Just answer the question. Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'?"Farmer Joe said, "Well, I had just got Bessie into the cart and I was driving down the road..."The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Judge, I am trying to make clear the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the highway patrolman (巡警) on the scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to cover the fact. I believe he is telling lies. Please tell him to simply answer the question."By this time the judge was fairly interested in Farmer Joe's answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule Bessie." Joe thanked the judge and went on, "Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the cart and was driving her down the highway when this huge truck ran into the stop sign and pushed my cart right in the side. I was thrown into one side and Bessie was thrown into the other.""I was hurt so badly that I didn't want to move. However, I could hear old Bessie breathing loudly and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans.Shortly after the accident a highway patrolman came on here to the scene. He could hear Bessie groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the patrolman came across the road with his gun in his hand and looked at me. He said, 'Your mule was in such a bad shape that I had to shoot her. How are you feeling?'."26.

From the text we can infer that the lawyer is_________.A. honestB. famousC. talentedD. slyBRiding through the royal forest of Sherwood on a wonderful May morning, you don't have a care in the world. Then you hear a bird call, the faint rustling of trees, and suddenly a man armed with a longbow appears in your path.He wears a feathered cap. You can't see the man's face clearly, but you don't have to. He is dressed in Lincoln green, the color of Robin Hood---the most famous English outlaw of all time.Don't worry; he won't harm you--not yet, anyway. He'll invite you to join him and his outlaw band for a feast. The meal of choice? Venison---freshly-killed deer.Only a king is allowed to hunt it, but then Robin never did worry about the law.After your feast, Robin, or his faithful lieutenant Little John, will ask you a question. How much money are you carrying? If you answer truthfully, you may keep all that you have. If you need money, then Robin will give or lend you some. But if you lie to him---if you hoard your money, well ... you won't have that money for very long. You'll be stripped of your clothes and cash, tied backwards on your horse and sent back to Nottingham in shame. And your money? It will go to help someonein need.Most people love Robin Hood. And that's a good thing. Just as common people are allowed to hunt harmful wolves, anyone can hunt Robin Hood. The sheriff would pay for Robin's capture just as surely as he would pay for a wolf's head. Robin and his band are often called wolfsheads by their enemies.Robin Hood is an outlaw. That means he lives outside the protection of the law. But Robin is a law unto himself. He's the self-styled king of the greenwood---either Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire or Barnsdale in Yorkshire.Robin is no common criminal. As the famous saying goes, he robs from the rich and gives to the poor.The poor have little to fear from Robin Hood. His enemies are the rich and corrupt, especially the Sheriff of Nottingham and the bad apples in the Church like the Abbot of St. Mary's and the Bishop of Hereford.Robin defends the underdog against oppression.31. Which of the following is not a usual practice of Robin Hood and his band?A. Hunting deer and serving their guests with their meat as dinner.B. Hunting harmful wolves and cutting their heads for money.C. Robbing the dishonest rich people of their money and clothes.D.Protecting and giving money to the low life in need of help.32. The underlined word "hoard" in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to______.A. give awayB. hide awayC.give upD. save up33. Why are Robin Hoodand his band called wolfsheads?A. They are as fierce as wolves when they robbed people.B. They are as harmful as wolves and should be hunted.C. They sometimes put on masks of wolfsheads to scare people.D. They are as valuable as wolfsheads because both will bring money if caught.34. Which of the following is NOT an enemy of Robin Hood?A. The King of England.B. The Sheriff of Nottingham.C. Little John.D. The Bishop of Hereford.35. The purpose of the passage is________.A. to warn people of the danger of traveling through the forest of SherwoodB. to introduce to you the self-styled king of the greenwood--Robin HoodC. to advise people to be honest with Robin Hood when he questions youD. to describe the fights between Robin Hood and his enemiesCIndia was once part of the British Empire, but thanks to modern technology and a booming economy, It has turned the tables on its former colonial master. Indian tutors are helping to teach math to British children over high-speed Internet connections. Early results suggest the idea is Improving exam results.But not everyone is happy at this"outsourcing" of tutoring.It's 3:30, and pupils at Raynham Primary School In London are gathering for their after-school maths lessons.Five time zones--thousands of kilometers away--their math tutors are also arriving for class.High-speed Internet has made it possible for Indian tutors to teach British pupils in real time. Each pupil gets a dedicated one-to-one onlinetutor. The students work with activities on their computer screen and wear a headset and microphone to talk to their tutor.The class teacher, Altus Basson, says he has seen an improvement in results. "There are some children who've really rocketed in their results. Children who struggle to focus in class focus a lot better on the laptops. The real advantage is that each child gets a focused activity and a single tutor," he said.Such individualized teaching is the core idea of Brightspark Education, the company that provides the online tutoring, says founder Tom Hooper. "Chiidren today feel very confident online; they feel very engaged;they feel very in control. And that's half the battle with education. Give them control, make them feel confident and enjoy their learning and you'll see them start to improve and embrace it, he said.Raynham Primary School is among the first in Europe to try online tutoring. At between $20 and $25 an hour, it's about half the cost of face-to-face coaching. But some people say an Internet connection is not enough of a connection for teaching and learning. Kevin Courtney is deputy General Secretary of Britain's National Union of Teachers. "We think there's a really important emotional connection between a teacher and a child whether it's a whole class or whether it's one-to-one. You need that immediacy of feedback and we're not convinced that that can happen across an Internet connection. In one of the wealthiest countrles in the world, we think that we can afford to have teachers with genuine emotional cennection there with the children," he said.Brightspark Education says the online tutoring is used only as an addition to supplement regular teaching.The company says its service does not represent a threat to teachers' jobs in Britain.Parents say they're very satisfied with the results they've seen. And what about the children? Children:"I love it!" "I love it!" "I hate maths!" So math--or, as the British callit, maths--is still not everyone'sfavorite subject even with the latest technology to teach it.36. What do we know about the online tutoring?A. Indian tutors are helping to teach math in Britain.B. Tutors and students are in different places.C. An online tutor helps several students at the same time.D. Tutors and students communicate by telephone.37. What can we learn about Brightspark Education?A. It shows a threat to teachers' jobs in Britain.B. it can take place of the regular teaching.C. It only pays attention to math teaching.D. It emphasizes the individualized teaching.38. According to Kevin Courtne,________.A. online tutoring will represent a threat to teachers' jobs in BritainB. online tutoring has a great influence on British.C. the emotional connection between a teacher and a child is importantD. immediacy of feedback can happen across an Internet connection39. The tone of this passage could best be described as________.A.humorousB.ironicC.admiringD.dissatisfied40. What's the best title for this passage?A. A New Teaching PatternB. Indian Teachers and British StudentsC. To Learn Maths with the Latest TechnologyD.Indian Tutors Teach British Kids On lineDA scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see.Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened.A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular,adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptatio early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible(固守已见的).Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ test.The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists' concerns. But brain theory can't explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people's success, brain ability measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as "character".EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together, how one's ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken serlously,some few fear EQ invites misuse.41.The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that_______.A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experimentB. emotional intelligence won't show up until adolescenceC. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal successD. candy can be used to measure a person's emotional intelligence42. According to the passage, which of the following is true of EQ and IQ ?A. Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either.B. The higher a person's IQ is, the higher his or her EQ is.C. The higher a person's EQ is, the higher his or her IQ is.D. Scientists have already discovered the way in which EQ and IQ work together.43. The underlined work "upbeat" in Paragraph 4 probably means_______.A. kindB. floatingC. excitedD. optimistic44.What is the purpose of the author mentioning the experiment at the beginning of the passage?A. To amuse both the children and readers.B. To prove the scientist's wisdom.C. To introduce the topic of the text.D. To show us how to do an IQ test.45. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?A. Information about famous people with high EQ.B. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.C. Some reasons why EQ is a relatively new field.D. Strong demand for basic emotional education.第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。
