1.Bend over, take a deep breath and drink some water! This is just one of hundreds of tips you might get if you have the hiccups(打嗝). Hiccups are so mysterious. We really don’t know why they start and why they stop. Everyone has a favorite cure(治愈方法) for a case of the hiccups. Some people think that a good scare(惊恐) is necessary to get well. Others eat a teaspoon of sugar. Still others drink a glass of water with a knife in it.
An American man named Jack O’Leary said he had hiccupped 160 million times over a period of eight years. He tried 60,000 cures, but none of them worked. At last he prayed to Saint Jude, the saint of Hopeless cases, and his hiccupping stopped immediately.
It took a British plumber eight months to cure his hiccups. People from all over the world wrote him letters with suggestions for getting well. He tried them all, but the hiccups continued. Finally, he drank a “secret” mixture someone had sent him. By that evening his hiccups were gone.
Why did these cures work for these two men? No one really know. But people who have studied many cases of hiccups have an idea – hiccups usually go away if you believe in the cure.

3.The United States will introduce a new exam system for students who want to study in the USA and other English-speaking countries, Xinhua News Agency reported from New York.
The exam, which means a great change from the current English level test, was introduced by Theresa Jen, associate director of the International Service of the USA College Board, America's leading educational organization.
"The Advanced Placement International English Language （APIEL） will be offered for the first time all over the world on May 10, 2012," said Jen.
However, the APIEL is a strange title to most Chinese students, and it is unlikely to soon gain the similarity(相似点) of other already existing exams, such as the TOEFL （Test of English as a Foreign Language）, the GRE （Graduate Record Examination）, or the IELTS （International English Language Testing System）.
"I have never heard of such a test and I would prefer the IELTS if I need another exam," said Xu Jingyan, a graduating student from Beijing University, who wants to study in England and has already taken the TOEFL. Most of Xu's classmates have never heard of the APIEL. "The APIEL is made for international students who wish to get university studies in English-speaking countries, including the United States, Britain, Canada and Australia. " Jen said.
"The APIEL will be used," said Jen, "because the TOEFL can no longer perfectly show the students' abilities of using English. " Xinhua reported that a large number of foreign students who had high scores in TOEFL exam turned out to be very ordinary educational performers after being admitted.
"Compared with the TOEFL, the APIEL measures a student's ability to read, write, speak and understand
'English through testing his or her skills in listening comprehension, speaking with fluency, and writing in an organized way. " Jen said.
【1】The underlined word "current" in the second paragraph means .
A．high B．present C．low D．formal
【2】We can learn from the passage that .
A．the TOEFL is more popular with the Chinese than the IELTS
B．it will take quite a period of time for people to accept the APIEL
C．Chinese students will prefer the IELTS rather than the APIEL even in the future
D．a student will have to take the APIEL if he/ she wants to study in English-speaking countries from 2012
【3】 The APIEL is designed for students who want to study in English-speaking countries, such as .
A．the United States and Canada B．Canada and Ireland
C．Australia and India D．Britain and France
【4】 According to the passage, the United States will introduce a new exam because .
A．it will bring the US government quite a lot of money
B．more and more students want to get further education in the USA
C．the existing exam systems can no longer perfectly show the students' abilities
D．the Chinese pay special attention to English studies with China's entry into the WTO
【5】Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A．A New Exam Designed for Students
B．The Four Skills in Learning English
C．The Key to English-speaking Countries
D．TOEFL, IELTS and GRE to Be out of Date
4.Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own. My mother was one of those people.
My father died when I was one-year-old. While I was growing up, we led a very hard life, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she seated me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life, "Kemmons, you are sure to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it. "
At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said that I would never walk again. Every night my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me whatever those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I walked on my own to school! When the Great Depression broke out, my mother lost her job. Then I left school to support the two of us. At that moment I decided never to be poor again.
Over the years, I experienced a lot of business success. But the real turning point happened on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was very angry that they charged an extra $2 for each child. That was too expensive for an ordinary American family.
I told my wife that I was going to open a motel （汽车旅馆）for families that would never charge extra money for children. Many people did not believe me at that time.
Not surprisingly, mom was my strongest supporter. As in any business, I experienced a lot of difficulties. But with my mom's words in my heart, I never doubted I would succeed. Fifteen years later, I had the largest hotel system in the world—Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $l billion a year.
You may not have started out life in the best situations. But if you find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.
【1】What Kemmon's mother often told him during his childhood was____.

四、其他
阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后字数要求）。

[1]Having a cold is an unpleasant experience, and it is even worse when you have a cough and a running nose. Sometimes we need to see a doctor to free ourselves from these symptoms(症状), but at other times we can treat it at home. One of the ways that you can try is simply drinking lots of water.
[2] There are two reasons why drinking plenty of water will help while you are sick with a cold. The first is an important one. Being sick with a cold puts us at risk of becoming dehydrated(脱水的). Mucus(鼻涕) production and fever both cause this dehydration.
[3] The second reason why drinking lots of water will help during your sickness is that it can help thin the mucus in the chest, which in turn will make coughing it up much easier. The good news is that you can take in your water in more ways than just drinking boring water.
[4]Tea is always , and a good hot tea can also help loosen the mucus. Other good options include juicy fruits and soup. Chicken soup is always a good choice for sickness. One should be careful and stay away from alcohol and caffeine. One more great idea for helping with a cold is to use steam. A vaporizer(喷雾器) is a good choice, and a hot shower will help as well.
[5]If you drink around 8 cups of water a day while you are sick with a cold, you will be able to do away with that cough quicker, and maybe even get over your cold quicker. So next time you are sick with a cold and don’t feel well, drink lots of water, tea and plenty of soup.
【1】What is the main idea of this passage? (no more than 9 words)
【2】 What makes you dehydrated when you get a cold?. (no more than 5 words)

1.Bend over, take a deep breath and drink some water! This is just one of hundreds of tips you might get if you have the hiccups(打嗝). Hiccups are so mysterious. We really don’t know why they start and why they stop. Everyone has a favorite cure(治愈方法) for a case of the hiccups. Some people think that a good scare(惊恐) is necessary to get well. Others eat a teaspoon of sugar. Still others drink a glass of water with a knife in it.
An American man named Jack O’Leary said he had hiccupped 160 million times over a period of eight years. He tried 60,000 cures, but none of them worked. At last he prayed to Saint Jude, the saint of Hopeless cases, and his hiccupping stopped immediately.
It took a British plumber eight months to cure his hiccups. People from all over the world wrote him letters with suggestions for getting well. He tried them all, but the hiccups continued. Finally, he drank a “secret” mixture someone had sent him. By that evening his hiccups were gone.
Why did these cures work for these two men? No one really know. But people who have studied many cases of hiccups have an idea – hiccups usually go away if you believe in the cure.
