Each passage is followed by several questions. Respond to the questions using information from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.Section A (10 marks)Questions 56—60 are based on the following passage.The term culture shock was introduced forthe first time in 1958 to describe the anxietyproduced when a person moves to a completelynew environment. This term expresses thefeeling of not knowing what to do or how to dothings in a new environment. This termexpresses the feeling of not knowing what todo or how to do things in a new environment. We can describe culture shock as the physical and emotional discomfort a person suffers when coming to live in a place different from the place of origin.Often, the way that we live before is not accepted or considered as normal in the new place. Everything is different, for example, not speaking the language, not knowing how to use banking machines, not knowing how to use telephones, and so forth.The symptoms of culture shock can appear at different times. Although a person can experience real pain from culture shock, it is also an opportunity for growing and learning new perspectives. Culture shock can help people develop a better understanding of themselves and stimulate personal creativity.Culture shock has many stages. Each stage can be ongoing, or appear only at certain times. In the first stage, the new arrival may feel very happy about all of the new experience. This time is called the honeymoon stage. Afterward, the second stage presents itself. A person may encounter some difficulties in daily life. For example, communication difficulties may occur, such as not being understood. In this stage, there may be feelings of impatience, anger and sadness. Transition between the old methods and those of the new country is a difficult process and takes time to complete. The third stage is characterized by gaining some understanding of the new culture. A new feeling of pleasure and sense of humor may be experienced. A person may start to feel a psychological balance. The individual is more familiar with the environment and wants to belong. This starts an evaluation of the old ways versus those of the new. In the fourth stage, the person realizes that the new culture has goodand bad things to offer. This stage can be one of double integration or triple integration, depending on the number of cultures that the person has to process. This integration is characterized by a more solid feeling of belonging. The person starts to define himself or herself and establish goals for living. The fifth stage is the stage that is called the reentry shock. This occurs when a person returns to the newly acquired customs are considered improper in the old culture.Questions 56—60Complete the summary with words from the passage, changing the form where necessary, with only one word for each blank.Introduced in 1958, culture shock is a term used to (56) __________ physical and emotional discomfort people experience when they come to or live in a new place. Although many people suffer a lot from culture shock, it is an (57) _________ for personal improvement. The five stages of culture shock may last for a long time or show up once in a while. In the first stage, the (58) __________ stage, the new arrival might be OK with everything. Afterward, (59) ________ from old methods to the new one calls for time and energy. During the third and fourth stage, people may gain more understanding of the new culture and possess objective views. The double or triple integration is (60) __________ by a feeling of belonging. The last stage, called reentry shock, refers to the feeling people have when returning to their home country.Section B (10 marks)Questions 61-65 are based on the following passage.For some people, it would be unthinkable. But Gabe Henderson is finding freedom in a recent decision; he canceled his MySpace account. The 26 years old graduate student stopped his account after realizing that a lot of his online friends were really just acquaintances. “The superficial emptiness clouded the excitement I had once felt,” Henderson wrote in an article. “It seems we have lost, to some degree, the special depth that true friendship is about.”Journalism professor Michael Bugeja, who is a strong supporter of face-to-face communication, read Henderson’s column and saw it was a sign of hope. Though he’s not anti-technology, Bugeja often lectures students about “interpersonal intelligence”—knowing when, where, and for what purpose technology is most appropriate. He points out the studentshe’s seen walking across campus, holding hands with each other while talking on cell phones to someone else He’s also seen them in coffee shops, surrounded by people, but staring instead at a computer screen. “True friends,” he says, “need to learn when to stop blogging and go across campus to help a friend.”These days, young people are more wired than ever—but they’re also getting more worried. Increasingly, they’ve had to deal with online bullies, who are posting anything from embarrassing photos to online threats. And increasingly, young people also are realizing that things they post on their profiles can come back to hurt them when applying for schools or jobs.Social networking can be an “extremely effective”way to publicize events to large groups. It can even help build a sense of community on campus. People joined Facebook as a way to meet others. However, it has limitations. A good Internet pro make even the most boring person seem some what interesting. People are also not always happy with text messages on the cell phones. Cell phones can be a quick way to say “have a good day”. But friends can also cancel a night out with a text message to avoid having to explain. “Our generation needs to get over this fear of confrontation and rejection.” Henderson says. “The focus needs to be on quality communication, in all ways.”Back in his life, Henderson is enjoying spending more face-to-face time with his friends and less with his computer. He says his decision to quit his social-networking Internet accounts was a good one. “I’m not sacrificing friends,” he says, “because if a picture, some basic information about their life and a Web page is all my friendship has become, then there was nothing to sacrifice to begin with.”Questions 61—63Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.61. Although Henderson quit MySpace, most of his online friends are actually close friends.62. According to Bugeja, young people should know when to use technology and when to stop using it.63. Social networking helps build a sense of community but has a negative effect on young people’s life if it is used inappropriately.Questions 64—65Answer the following questions briefly according to the passage.64. What does Henderson lose by using social networking websites like Myspace?65. What do young people need to overcome in order to focus on quality communication?Section C (10 marks)Questions 66—70 are based on the following passage.“Five …Four …Three …Two …One …See ya! ”and Chance McGuire,twenty-five, is airborne off a 600 –footconcrete dam in Northern California. Inone second he falls 15 feet, in two seconds60 feet, and after three seconds and 130feet, he is flying at 66 miles an hour.McGuire is a practitioner of what hecalls the king of all extreme sports. BASE—an acronym for building, antenna, span (bridge) and earth (cliffs)—jumping has one of the sporting world’s highest fatality rates: inits 18-year history, forty –six participants have been killed. Yet the sport has never been more popular, with more than a thousand jumpers in the United States, and more seeking to get into it every day. It is an activity without margin for error. If your chute malfunctions, don’t bother researching for a reserve—there isn’t time. There are no second chances.Still, the sport may be a perfect fit with the times. Americans may have more in common with McGuire than they know or care to admit. America has embarked on a national orgy of thrill seeking and risk taking. The rise of adventure and extreme sports such as BASE jumping, snowboarding, ice climbing, skateboarding, and paragliding is merely the most vivid manifestation of this new national behavior.The rising popularity of extreme sports speaks of an eagerness on the part of millions of Americans to participate in activities closer to the edge, where danger, skill, and fear combine to give weekend warriors and professional athletes alike a sense of pushing out personal boundaries. According to American Sports Data Inc., a consulting firm, participation in so-called extreme sports is way up. Snowboarding has grown 113 percent in five years and now boasts nearly 5.5 million participants. Mountain hiking, skateboarding, scuba diving—their growth curves reveal a nation that loves to play with danger. Contrast that with activities such as baseball, touch football, and aerobics, all of which were in steady decline throughout the 1990s.The pursuits that are becoming more popular have one thing in common: the perception that they are somehow more challenging than a game of touch football. “Every human being with two legs and two arms is going to wonder how fast, how strong, how enduring he or she is,” says Eric Perlman, a mountaineer and film maker specializing in extreme sports. “We are designed to experience or die.”Questions 66—68Complete the following sentences with information given in the passage in a maximum of 4 words for each blank.66. _______ rates doesn’t stop people from getting into BASE jumping every day.67. The rise of extreme sports manifests the national behavior of _______ and ________.68. The combination of fear, skill and danger gives both amateurs and professionals a sense of______.Questions 69—70Choose the best answer according to the passage.69. Which of the following activities reveals a nation that loves to play activities closer to the edge?A. Touch football.B. Baseball.C. Scuba diving.D. Aerobics.70. What does Eric mean by saying “We are designed to experience or die”?A. Life with great challenges is a meaningful one.B. Life without great experiences is very common.C. People may die while doing extreme sports.D. Extreme sports are essential parts of human life.Section D (10 marks)Questions 71—75 are based on the following passage.Albert Einstein was one of the greatest thinkers the world has ever known. He formulated theories of relativity, successfully described the nature of the universe and came up with the most famous equation in the world. David Beckham is the footballer whose skills and precision have made him one of the most gifted sportsmen of his generation. Who is more intelligent?How Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences (MI) dares us to put these two men on neighboring pedestals. Instead of regarding intelligence as a single quantity measurable by pen-and-paper tests, Gardner, an education professor at Harvard University, divides human intelligence into no fewer than eight separate categories ranging from mathematical tomusical competence. (74)His ideas have provoked vigorous debate about how one defines intelligence. Gardner’s point is that quantity measures only one capacity, the sort of mental agility that is valued in academic achievement, and that this single number does not do justice to human potential. So he has created his own spheres of achievement. Some categories are easily reconcilable with general perceptions about IQ. For example, “linguistic” intelligence confers a mastery of language, and is the preserve of such people as poets, writers and linguists. “Logical mathematical”intelligence marks out people who take a reasoning approach to physical things, and seek underlying principles. Einstein is the standard –bearer of this group, which also includes philosophers. These two categories are the main components of what we generally think of as “intelligence”.“Musical”intelligence characterizes musicians, composers and conductors. “Spatial”intelligence is about being able to picture perspective, to visualize a world in one’s head with great accuracy. Chess players, artists and architects would rate highly in this category. Dancers, athletes and actors are lumped under the “bodily-kinesthetic”heading; these individual, like Beckham, are able to control their bodies and movements very carefully.Then come two types of “personal” intelligence-intrapersonal, the ability to gauge one’s own mood, feelings and mental states, and interpersonal, being able to gauge it in others and use the information. These two categories could be interpreted as emotional intelligence. Psychiatrists are particularly adept at the former, while religious leaders and politicians are seen as people who can exploit the latter.Charles Darwin is perhaps the perfect embodiment of the eighth intelligence –“naturalist”. This label describes people with a deep understanding of the natural world and its objects. Zoologists and botanists can count themselves among this group.(75)These eight categories certainly reflect the fact that, in these areas, there is a spectrum of human ability ranging from the hopeless to the brilliant. But are these really intelligences, or could these competences be more accurately described as gifts or talents?Questions 71—73Answer the following questions briefly according to the passage.71. What are the main components of “intelligence” we generally think of?72. What kind of abilities does emotional intelligence involve?73. Which intelligences are represented by Einstein and Beckham respectively?Questions 74—75Translate the underlined sentences in the passage into Chinese.74. His ideas have provoked vigorous debate about how one defines intelligence.75. These eight categories certainly reflect the fact that, in these areas, there is a spectrum of human ability ranging from the hopeless to the brilliant.Part V Translation (10 marks)Translate the following sentences into English, using the hints given in brackets. Remember to write the answer on the answer sheet.76. 既然没有退路了，我们不妨试试他的方法。

They also listen to the news about sports, the weather, and the information about Americans. Most of the radio programmes are music.Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places. Once the popular singer is heard all over the country, young people buy his or her tape. Some of the money from these tapes comes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her. Then the singer has become a national star.There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans. One is called folk music. It tells stories about the common life of Americans. Another is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they were watching.

This creates a problem, because most families love home cooking! The food tastes good and warm, and a family meal brings everyone together. In some families, meals are often the only times everyone sees one another at the same time.Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love. A parent who bakes a batch of chocolate cookies isn ’t just satisfying a child ’s sweet tooth. He /She is sending a message. The message says, ‘I care about you enough to spend an hour making cookies that you will eat up in 15 minutes if I let you!’There ’s also something about the smell of good cooking that attracts people of all ages. It makes most of us feel safe and loved – even if we are the ones doing the cooking! Next time you smell a cake baking, stop for a moment and pay attention to your mood. Chances are, the good smell is making you feel happy.Real estate agents (房产中介) know that good cooking smells are important. They sometimes advise people whose homes are for sales to bake cookies if buyers are coming to see the house. The good smells make the place ‘feel like home ’. These pleasant smells help to make buyers buy the house to make a good home for their family, too!Questions 56-60: Fill in the blanks with suitable words according to the passage above. Use no more than three words for each blank.56. Fewer people cook now because they are ______.57. Family meals are ______ because they bring family members ______.58. Homemade cookies can satisfy a child ’s sweet tooth while telling him/her that the parents ______ him/her as well.59. Real estate agents often ask home sellers to ______ when people come to see their houses.60. The smell of baking may encourage buyers to ______.CIf you go to the Spanish town of Bunol in August, you should wear old clothes. Don ’t wear good clothes because you may get covered with tomato juice!The farmers near Bunol grow a lot of tomatoes. In summer there are too many tomatoes to sell. So the people of Bunol have an unusual way of using them. Every year, one day in August is called ‘Tomatina ’(西红柿狂欢节). In the morning, the shopkeepers in Bunol put plastic over their shops. They don ’t want their shops to be covered with tomato juice. A big crowd of people comes into town. Then trucks bring 125,000 kilograms of tomatoes.At 11 o ’clock, the fun starts. Suddenly everyone starts throwing tomatoes at each other. People enjoy throwing tomatoes. They also enjoy being hit by tomatoes! Soon everyone is red. And everyone is having a lot of fun.Then, at 1 o ’clock, everyone stops throwing tomatoes. The streets of Bunol are covered with tomato juice. The people wash the street, and soon all the tomato juice is gone. Tomatina is finished for another year. But next August the farmers will have a lot of tomatoes again. And it will be Tomatina time again!Questions 61-65: Answer the following questions according to the passage.61. When is Tomatina each year?62. Why do shopkeepers put plastic over their shops?63. How many tomatoes are used in Tomatina?64. How long does Tomatina last?65. What do people enjoy about Tomatina?III.

Could you please replace them?Secondly, the flat is ex tremely cold because the central heating doesn’t work at all. Part of the problem is the windows.

We are prepared to do the work ourselves if you pay for the paint.Can you possibly come and look at the flat? I’m sure you will agree with us. In any case, please let us know about these things as soon as possible.Yours sincerely,Sandra ShawB) One possible version:Everyone has a dream, whether it is to become a doctor, a teacher or a scientist. Education is the one thing that can make any of these dreams come true.We all know college is hard, but what we learned during those times are the key to being a success. College will to turn your ideas into businesses and your dreams into realities. From learning how to add small numbers in the first grade to doing matrices in college, education can open your mind to a world of opportunities you never thought possible.Our country develops the fastest in the world because so many young people attend college. They have the patience to attain the degree they dreamed of since they were in middle school. To me, getting a better education by going to college is really the key to accomplishing a dream.写作评分原则本题总分为30 分: A10 分,B20 分。
