Not only that, he helped his brother 44 in his studies and is still helping.W hat I want to say is that I consider 45 as richness in a poor family.

Seattle International Film FestivalB. University of Toronto Film and Video FestivalC. Young Cuts Film FestivalD. Scene First Student Film FestivalBSometimes in the next century, the familiar early newspaper on the front porch will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions from communication experts working on the newspaper of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of news events.Most of the technology is available now, but convincing more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance to computer newspapers may be s tronger from within journalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable.Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replace news-print with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the change over because people need to buy c omputers and because newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry.61. The best title for this passage is .A. Computer Newspapers Are Well LikedB. Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on ComputersC. Paper Newspapers Are out of FashionD. Communications Technology in the Future62. It might take 30 or 40 years for computer newspapers to replace traditional newspapers because .A. it is technologically impossible nowB. computer newspapers are too expensiveC. both the general people and professional journalists are against themD. traditional newspapers are easy to read63. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?A. They are cheaper than newspapers.B. They are convenient to use.C. You can get more information from them quickly.D. You can easily save information for future use.64. The reason why journalists are not eager to accept computer newspapers is that .A. they don’t know how to use computersB. they think computer newspapers take too much time to readC. they are afraid that they might be unfit for their jobsD. they have bee n trained to work for traditional newspapers65. We can infer from the passage that .A. all technological changes are goodB. all technologies will eventually replace old onesC. new technologies will replace old ones sooner or laterD. traditional newspapers will stay for another centuryCToday, when there are many top graduates looking for top jobs, graduates can differentiate(区别) themselves by obtaining a double major or even a double degree. Increasingly, employers are looking for individuals who are not only competent and intelligent, but who have different skill sets and who are knowledgeable in many areas. Part of the appeal to employers is that your extra work demonstrates a willingness to take on difficult tasks. Additionally, if your majors overlap (重叠), you are able to show potential employers that you have both breadth and depth of knowledge.By studying for a double major, although you will be studying for only one degree, you will be focusing on two related and integrated subjects that complement (补充) each other. Classes overlap between the majors, meaning fewer classes are required than with a double degree, so it is easier to finish within four years.In contrast, with the more rigorous (严格的) double degree, you will be studying for two different degrees in two completely different areas of study. Although pursuing such a course of study allows students to complete two wholly separate degrees in less time than if they were to earn them separately, many strong students still find it incredibly difficult to complete in four or five years.If you are committed to a double major/degree, it is wise to do a little bit of planning. Some students try to find two courses of studies that are related, while others seek to round out their academic studies by choosing two completely unrelated fields. For double majors, common pairings include: (i) economics and a foreign language; (ii) political science or government and journalism; (iii) economics and psychology. For double degrees, common pairings include: (i) engineering and a business program such as finance or accounting; (ii) engineering and economics.66. What do employers think of the graduates with different skill sets and knowledge in many areas?A. They should be given top jobs.B. They are willing to take difficult tasks.C. They are better than those who are competent and intelligent.D. They must have attained a double major or even a double degree.67. According to the passage, the underlined word “breadth”most probably means_________.A. widthB. amountC. quantityD. quality68. To obtain a double major, you _________.A. should complete two wholly separate degreesB. need to focus on two related and integrated subjectsC. need to spend more time than obtaining a double degreeD. have to take courses in two completely different areas of study69. If you are devoted to a double major or degree, you should _________.A. find two subjects with overlapping classesB. learn about what your potential employers wantC. decide what to learn with your intentions consideredD. try to decide on some common pairings as soon as possible70. Which statement is CORRECT according to the passage?A. Economics is a major while engineering is a degree.B. Every college student should take a double major or degree.C. Earning a double degree is more difficult than obtaining a double major.D Some students choose two completely unrelated fields to show their ability in academic study.PART FOUR WRITING (45 marks)SECTION A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.There are two types of people in the world．Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, while the other becomes unhappy．This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds．People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather．They enjoy all the cheerful things．Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things．Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied．By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend（hurt）many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere．If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied．The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation．It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors．The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes．I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit．Though in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck．Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect．This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments．If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success．Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes．If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings．These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others．If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact withthem．Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels．Types of People Differences （71）___________________The happy Fixing theirattention on the（72）__________of things Equal degree of health and wealth and other（73） of lifeThe unhappy Think and speak only of the （74）things．（75）about the unhappy Situation （77）（79） ____Souring thepleasure of society●Growing into ahabit●Having bad effects ontheir interests andtastes●Nobody loves them●No one treats themwith politeness and（78）●Change this bad（80） _______●Be pleased wi thwhat is pleasing●Don’t worryneedlessly aboutthemselves andothers（76）_many peopleMaking themselvesdisagreeableSection B （10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit..JACKSONVILIE, Fla, Nov.10—A 14-year –old boy was arrested today after the rotten body of an 8-year-old girl who was his neighbor was found in his bedroom. She had been stabbed (刺伤) and beaten.The boy, Joshua Earl Patrick Philips, admitted and was charged with murder in the death of the girl, Maddie Clifton, who disappeared on Nov. 3, Sherriff Nat Glover said.Joshua, who has no criminal record, would not be eligible (合格的) for the death punishment because of his age. Detectives discovered a knife and a baseball bat believed to be the weapons (武器) used to kill the girl, Sherriff said.The girl had been stabbed at least nine times and was struck in the head. Sheriff Glover said at the conference. The authorities did not say whether she had been attacked sexually, nor did they give motive for the attack.The boy’s mother , Melissa Phillips , grew suspicious for the police searched her home on Monday and detected an odor (气味) , Sherriff said. This morning she pulled aside the frame of the bed , saw a child’s feet and called an officer, she said. Maddie’s body was found under a sheet of wood supporting the frame of the water bed , which wa s filled, Sheriff Glover said , adding , “ He put her under the bed and tapped her up in it..”Investigators believe the third-grader was killed in the boy’s house shortly after she disappeared last Tuesday, touching off a wide-spread search.On Friday, Maddie’s parents , Steve and Shelia Clifton, made an earnest request for her return.The boy’s house, like others in the neighborhood, had been searched three times. During the third search on Monday, the mother has at first said she thought the odor came from family pets.Hundreds of volunteers had sent thousands of leaflets with Naddie’s picture since she disappeared that evening, about 30 minutes after she went out to play with friends. The girl’s house is one of the well-kept, single –family homes in the older working-class of Jacksonville. Yellow ribbons (丝带) still hung from the trees this morning.81. Why can’t the boy be sentenced to death? ( no more than 6 words)82. What might the boy have used to kill the girl? ( no more than 8 words)83. Which grade of school was the girl in when she was killed ? ( no more than 2 words)84. Who first found the body of the dead girl? ( no more than 6 words)Section C (25marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.假如你班要就“如何为高考作准备”开一个班会，请你写一篇发言稿，谈谈你认为在高考备考过程中要注意的事项（三条以上）及理由：注意: 1. 词数120以上，开头和结尾已为你写好(不计入总词数)；2. 参考词汇：明确的definite (adj.) 评价estimation (n.)Hello, everyone!No doubt every Senior 3 student wishes to be successful in the National College EntranceExamination.__________________________________________________________________Thank you for listening, that’s all!答案PART ONE LISTENING COMPREHENSION (30 marks)SECTION A (30 marks)1-5 BABCC 6-10 CBABC 11-15ABCBC16. an exhibition 17. the home’s design 18. large work tables 19. hundredsof20. the early 1800’sPART TWO LANGUAGE KNOWLEDGE (45 marks)SECTION A (15 marks)21-25 ACBAD 26-30 BCACA 31-35 CCAACSECTION B (18 marks)36-40 ACDBB 41-45 CADBC 46-47 ADSECTION C (12 marks)48、up 49、from 50、and 51、for 52、an 53、it 54、who / that 55、thanPART THREE READING COMPREHENSION （30 marks）56-60：BCBDD 61-65: BCADC 66-70: BABCCPART FOUR WRITING (25 marks)SECTION A (10 marks)71．Similarities 72．convenience 73．comforts 74．opposite 75．Analysis 76．Offending 77．Results 78．respect 79．Tips/ Advice/ Suggestions 80．habitSECTION B (10 marks)81.

Yet what should we do in order to achieve success? Here are some suggestions.First, it’s very important to have a right attitude, for a normal state of mind and self-confidence not only helps us to relax but also enables us to overcome difficulties bravely. Meanwhile, we should have a definite goal and a correct estimation of ourselves. Only in this way will we not be easily pleased or disappointed with what we have known and done. Besides, we’d better sometimes talk with our parents, teachers or classmates, who may help us out when we’re in trouble. F inally, striking a proper balance between study and rest keeps us energetic and a healthy diet is useful as well.With these done, I think we can greatly improve our performance.Thank you for listening, that’s all!。

But sometimes those plants are related，and there are benefits to not wasting resources on being competitive，and there is not really a cost to not being competitive as long as your neighbor is also not being competitive.”Learning and memory appear to be important for kin recognition in animals，but this isn't an option for plants，she noted.Some researchers speculate(猜测) that plants communicate through their roots，identifying themselves using tiny chemical signatures specific to each plant's family.16．What's the main idea of the message？A．Studies find plants can recognize，communicate with relatives.B．Kin selection is important for plants.C．Animals can recognize and memorize their relatives.D．Competition asks plants to recognize their relatives.17．Which of the following is NOT right about animals' social skill？A．Animals can recognize and memorize their relatives.B．Animals' social skill is to cooperate and share resources.C．Animals' social skill can recognize close relatives in order to work together.D．Animals' social skill is no use at all.18．Plants' kin selection is to ________.A．grow wellB．compete with other kinds of plantsC．strengthen the relationship among siblingsD．find which one is the best19．From the passage，we learn that ________.A．sea rocket is a South American speciesB．sea rocket grows aggressively alongside unrelated neighborsC．sea rocket grows aggressively alongside its siblingsD．sea rocket is a kind of bush without flowers20．How can the plants communicate with each other according to experts' suppose？A．Plants communicate by using tiny chemical signatures specific to each plant's family.B．Plants communicate with each other through their roots.C．Plants communicate with each other by their leaves.D．Plants communicate with each other with their flowers.Ⅲ.书面表达假定你是李华，准备参加学校举办的主题为“How to protect ourselves in the school？”的英语征文比赛。

For more than 40 years she made it morally necessary to knoweverything---to read every book worth reading ,to see every movie worth seeing .When she was still in her early 30s, publishing essays in such important magazines as Partisan Review, she appeared as the symbol of American culture life ,trying hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art .With great effort and serious judgement. Sontag walked at the latest edges of world culture. Seriousness was one of Sontage’s lifelong watchwords(格言), but at a time when the barriers between the well-educated and the poor-educated were obvious, she argued for a true openness to the pleasure of pop culture. In “Notes Camp〞, the 1964 essay that first made her name ,she explained what was then a little-known set of difficult understandings, through which she could not have been more famous .“Notes on Camp〞,she wrote, represents “a victory of ‘form’ over ‘content’, ‘beauty’ over ‘morals’〞.By conviction〔信念〕she was a sensualist〔感觉论者〕, but by nature she was a moralist 〔伦理学者〕,and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s , it was the latter side of her that came forward. In illness as Metaphor —published in 1978, after she suffered cancer—she argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed personalities〔被压抑的性格〕, a concept that effectively blamed the victim for the disease. In fact , re-examining old positions was her life long habit. In America, her story of a 19th century Polish actress who set up a perfect society in California, won the National Book Award in 2000. But it was as a tireless all-purposer cultural view that she made her lasting fame. “Sometimes,〞 she once said ,“I feel that, in the end, all I am really defending …is the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness.〞 And in the end ,she made us take it seriously too. 61．The underlined sentence in paragraph 1 means Sontag_________.A．was a symbol of American cultural lifeB．developed world literature, film and artC．published many essays about world cultureD．kept pace with the newst development of world culture62．She first won her name through ___________.A．her story of a Polish actressB．her book illness as MetaphorC．publishing essays in magazines like partisan ReviewD．her explanation of a set of difficult understandings63．As for Sus an Sontag’s lifelong habit , she __________.A．misunderstood the idea of seriousnessB．re-examined old positionsC．argued for an openess to pop cultureD． preferred morals to beauty64．Susan Sontag’s lasting fame was made upon___________.A．tireless, all-purpose cultural viewB．her lifelong watchword ：seriousnessC．publishing books on moralsD．enjoying books worth reading and movies worth seeing65．According to the passage, Susan Sontag__________.A．was a sensualist as well as a moralistB．looked down upon the pop cultureC．thought content was more important than formD．blamed the victim of cancer for being repressedCWith the World Cup always held in the European off-season in June and July, when the tiny nation of Qatarm beat out USA Australia, Japan and South Korea, as the venue 〔地点〕the 2022 World Cup Soccer, there were gasps of surprise from the fans – it was not just because of the size of the competitors, but also the fact that Doha sees an average top temperature of 41 degrees Cel sius (106°F) in June and July with thepossibility of top temperatures as high as 50°C (122°F). While shifting the World Cup to the cooler month.Since the World Cup cannot be moved to the ‘cooler’ season in January or to a neighboring country with milder weather, Qatar has to figure out a solution to make the game more comfortable. A team of engineering scientists from Qatar University (QU) have taken a more high-tech approach to solving the problem –they've reportedly developed a type of artificial "cloud" designed to float above the World Cup venues and provide fans and players with relief from the blazing sun.The artificial clouds system was invented by a team led by Dr Saul Abdul Ghani, Head of the Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Department at QU, who told Gulf News that the "clouds" would be made from a lightweight carbon structure carrying a giant envelope of material containing helium〔氦〕 gas. The "cloud" would also feature solar panels on its upper surface to power engines that allow the cloud to be moved via remote control. While the country officials have promised to improve some of the issues with solar-powered stadiums capable of reducing the temperatures inside, to a comfortable 20℃(68°F),there is still concern of how the players will be able to function in the practice fields.The system would initially cost around US$500,000, with prices coming down with commercial scale production. However, since Qatar needs to find a solution, the money is probably to the issue. The bigger question is, will this team of scientists actually be able to conjure up〔兑现〕something that they have promised? We will all find out in about eleven years!66．By mentioning “the European off-season〞, the author tells us .A．why the World Cup is held B．where the host countries of the World Cup are C．where the World Cup is usually held D．when the World Cup is held 67．The artificial clouds system aims to .A．carry a giant envelope of material containing helium gasB．air-condition the venues via solar powerC．feature solar panels on its upper surfaceD．allow the loud to be moved via remote control68．Which of the following is NOT promised for 2022 World Cup by Qatar?A．The tournament season.B．The tournament venues.C．The comfortable temperature for training grounds.D．The comfortable temperature for the matches.69．About how much US dollars are estimated if four artificial clouds float above stadiums?A．$ 1,600,000 B．$ 2,500,000 C．$500,000 D．$ 2,200,00070．Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?A．Will the 2020 World Cup Be Held in the Middle East?B．Qatar’s 2022 World Cup in High TemperatureC．Will Man-Made Clouds Provide Shade at the 2022 World Cup in Qaltar?D．Artificial Clouds at High Cost Promising Comfortable SeasonPart IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.There are many reasons why you might not tell all when your doctor asks you to list the medications you are taking. But there is one very good reason why you should tell all: your health. Or you may encounter a drug interaction, a situation in which a substance affects the activity of a drug.Even though drug reactions and interactionare responsible for only about 3.8 percent of emergency department visits, many of these cases are serious.Medications have become animportant component of good medical care, often taking the place of surgery or other invasive procedures. Pills are thought to be good cures for lowering blood pressure and cholesterol〔胆固醇〕and they are also used to treat depression and other kinds of diseases. As a result, people prefer to take combined medications, thinking they all work for good.At least 25 percent of Americans over age 65 take three or more medications daily-in many cases, prescribed by different doctors. Any of these medications can cause an unfavorable reaction. When two or more are taken at the same time, there is a risk of a drug interaction. Further increasing the risk, 40 percent of American adults regularly have herbal remedies〔药物〕or vitamins – often in combination with prescription or over-the-counter medications and usually without the knowledge of their doctors.To avoid the bad effects, you should follow the instructions. Your doctor will tell you when and how the medications are to be taken and if they are to be taken with or without certain foods. These instructions are important to ensure that the drug does its job effectively.It's a good idea to go to the same doctor regularly so he can be familiar with the drugs you are taking. And be sure to consult him before starting to take herbal remedies or vitamins. Finally, new medications are coming onto the market all the time. All the possible reactions and interactions are not always known. Be alert to symptoms and report them immediately to your doctor.Title: 71.I.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Bicycle rental companies in Beijing are going broke, because nobody wants to hire their services. Major rental operators have invested about 100 million yuan〔$14.7 million〕 in almost 20,000 bicycles but are now struggling to survive.A spokesman from the Bird of Freedom Bicycle Rental said the company has already sold most of the 400 bicycles. “This is a difficult business, especially when it is cold. The cold weather almost killed the business,〞 he said.Bigger rental companies are also facing challenges. Beijing Bicycle Rental Co Ltd, which owns 8,000 bicycles, has invested more than 30 million yuan over the past year. Wang Yong, chairman of the group, said his company had not made a profit since it began in 2005.Almost all bicycle rental companies in Beijing require deposits of 300 to 400 yuan and then customers need to pay 10 yuan or more per hour. “I don’t want to pay 400 yuan to rent a bike. It’s too dear,〞 said Zhang Yu, a student in Communication University of China, who does not own a bike and often takes motorized rickshaws. “If renting for one day will cost 20 yuan and I rent a bike for five days, I can use the money to buy a new one."Although facing economic ruin, some enterprises are still hoping that conditions will improve.IbikeMedia, one of the biggest bicycle rental companies in China, also invested tens of millions yuan in Beijing and has more than 10,000 bicycles. Li Weiwei, general manager of IbikeMedia Beijing, said his company has a poliey of no deposit and no payment. He said the company tried to put advertisements on the bicycles and in this way, they could make profits. But they had not made a profit yet because of its small scale. However, customers must pay 20 yuan per card and also show proff of good personal credit.In early July, the Beijing municipal government announced plans to develop a 50,000-bicycle rental operation across the city. “The bigger network we have, the more citizens will rent bikes,〞 Li said. “This will make rental easier to citizens and we strongly need help from the government.〞81．In which season is the bicycle rental business the most difficult in Beijing?
