Finally, I ordered the same thing the man at the next table was eating. After dinner, I started to walk along Broadway until I came to Times Square with its movie theatres, neon lights, and huge crowds of people. I did not feel tired, so I continued to walk around the city. I wanted to see everything on my first day. I knew it was impossible, but I wanted to try.When I returned to the hotel, I was exhausted, but I couldn’t sleep because I kept hearing the fire and police sirens during the night.

He wasn‘t very talkative, didn‘t answer questions and got into lots of fights. He had failed in almost every class. I met Ware for the first time at a weekend training program, which was designed to have students become more involved in their communities. Ware was one of 405 students who signed up for the program. When I showed up to lead them, the communities leaders gave me this overview(概况) of the attending students: ―We have different kinds of students today, from the student body president to T. J. Ware, the boy with the longest arrest record in the history of town.‖ Somehow, I knew that I wasn‘t the first to hear about Ware‘s dark side as the first words of introduction.At the start of the program, Ware was literally standing outside the circle of students, against the back wall. He didn‘t readily join the discussion groups and seemed to have little to say. But slowly, the interactive（互动式的）games drew him in. The ice really melted when the groups started building a list of positive and negative things that had occurred at school that year. Ware had some definite thoughts on those situations. The other students in Ware‘s group welcomed his comments. All of a sudden Ware felt like a part of the group, and before long he was being treated like a leader. He was saying things that made a lot of sense, and everyone was listening. Ware was a smart guy and had some great ideas. The next day, Ware was very active in all the sessions. By the end of the program, he had joined the Homeless Project team. He knew something about poverty, hunger and hopelessness. Impressed with his passionate(热情的)concern and ideas, the other students on the team elected Ware chairman of the team.Two weeks later, Ware led the team to collect food for needy families. In just two hours they collected 2,854 cans of food, which could support the poor family in the area for 75 days. The local newspaper covered the event with a full-page article the next day. That newspaper story and Ware‘s picture were posted on the main bulletin board at school. Every day he was reminded about what he did. He was being acknowledged as leadership material. Then Ware started showing up at school every day and answered questions from teachers for the first time.Ware‘s story reminds us that a bird with a broken wing only needs mending. But once it hashealed(痊愈), it can fly higher than the rest.( ) 1. By high school, T. J. Ware wasn‘t very talkative, didn‘t answer questions and got into lots of fights.( ) 2. T. J.

Passage OneWhen Berenice Belizaire arrived in New Y ork from Haiti with her mother and sister in 1987, she wasn‘t very happy. She spoke no English. The family had to live in a small and crowdedBrooklyn apartment, a far cry from the comfortable house they‘d had in Haiti. Her mother, a nurse, worked long hours. School was torture(折磨). Berenice had always been a good student, but now she was learning a new language while enduring constant taunts(嘲笑)from the Americans. They cursed(咒骂)her in the cafeteria and threw food at her. Someone hit her sister in the head with a book. ―Why can‘t we go home?‖ Berenice asked her mother.Because home was dangerous. The schools weren‘t always open anymore, and education---her mother insisted---was the most important thing. Her mother had always pushed her: memorize everything, she ordered. ―I have a pretty good memory,‖Berenice admitted last week. Indeed, the other kids at school began to notice that Berenice always, somehow, knew the answers.‖ They started coming to me for help,‖ she says. ―They never called me a nerd(书呆子).‖Within two years Berenice was speaking English, though not well enough to get into one of New Y ork‘s elite(精英)public high school. She had to settle for a neighborhood school, James Madison, a school with a history of unlikely success stories. ―I didn‘t realize what we had in Berenice at first,‖ says math teacher Judith Khan. ―She was good at math, but she was quiet. And the things she didn‘t know. She applied for a summer program in Buffalo and asked me how to get there on the subway. But she always seemed to ask the right questions. She understood the big ideas. She could think on her feet. She could explain difficult problems so the other kids could understand them. Eventually I realized she wasn‘t just pushing for grades, she was hungry for knowledge… And you know it never occurred to me that she also was doing well in English and history, all these subjects that had to be much tougher for her than math.‖51. Berenice and her family came to the United States so that_________________________.A.S he could get a good educationB.They could live a comfortable lifeC.They could learn to speak perfect EnglishD. she would enjoy school together with her sister52. How did the American students treat Berenice and her sister when they first came to New Y ork?A.T hey tried to help them.B.They looked down upon them.C.They tried to make friends with them.D.

How was it that the American children never called Berenice a nerd?A.T hey came to know she had a pretty good memory.B.She spoke English as if she were a native American,C.She could help them with their schoolwork.D.They knew she had always been a good student.54. Why didn‘t Berenice get into an elite public school?A.H er family couldn‘t afford the cost.B.Her English wasn‘t good enough.C.It was too far away from where her family lived.D.The neighborhood school she went to had a history of unlikely success stories.55. Why did Berenice make such rapid progress in her studies after she came to America according to her math teacher?A.T here were so many things she didn‘t know.B.The summer program she went to helped her a lot.C.Her mother pressed her for good grades.D.She had a thirst for knowledge.Passage TwoOne of the greatest mysteries in biology—how the monarch butterfly(帝王蝶)travels thousands of kilometers on its yearly migration(迁移) –has just been solved.Monarch butterflies use the sun to set their body clocks and make their journeys, according to US scientists. No other butterfly in the world migrates like the orange and black monarchs of North America. They cannot live for long periods in cold weather. Each autumn, thousands travel up to 3,000 km to spend the winter in the mountains of Mexico. There are so many, they almost block out the sky, and you can hear their wings beating.It usually takes the butterflies two months to reach Mexico. After staying five months, they head back up north in the spring. But not one butterfly finishes the whole round-trip. They lay eggs along the way and die.Three generations of butterflies will live and die during the spring journey alone. The fourth and final generation of the year is born in early autumn and will reach the north. But it hardly gets to rest before starting the long journey south to Mexico.The most amazing thing about these butterflies is that they return to the very same tree in Mexico that their great-great-grandparents used the winter before. Past studies have shown that the insects use the sun as a compass to show them the way. But experts are unsure how the butterflies change their directions as the sun moves in the sky.This new study now shows that the insects use a ―circadian(生理节奏的)‖clock in their bodies as part of their sun compass. In laboratory tests, monarch butterflies were found to fly in the right direction under normal daylight hours. But those flying in 24-hour light headed straight towards the sun. That is, they no longer had any sense of time.Scientist Steven Reppert, who led the research, said: ―We have shown the need for the circadian clock for monarch butterfly migration. When the clock is interrupted, monarchs are unable to fly towards Mexico.‖56. What is the focus of the passage?A. Monarch butterflies‘ yearly migration.B. The unique living style of monarch butterflies.C. The guidance of the sun in monarch butterflies‘ navigation.D. Monarch butterflies use body clocks as part of their sun compass.57. Which of the following statements is true about monarch butterflies?A. Each autumn they fly north to North America.B. In spring they fly south to Mexico.C. Only a few of them can finish the round trip.D. Their color is orange and black.58. The most surprising finding about the butterflies is that_______________________.A. not one butterfly finishes the whole-round tripB. they can find the same tree in Mexico that their great-great-grandparents used the winter beforeC. it takes as long as two months for the butterflies to fly to MexicoD. they use the sun as a compass59. What can be learned from the passage about past studies and the new discovery?A. Past studies discovered the new function of a body clock.B. The new study discovers the use of the sun as a compass.C. The new discovery throws light on an old mystery.D. Past studies showed how the butterflies could change direction.60. What was found in the laboratory?A. Monarch butterflies lost their sense of time.B. The sun was not important in their migration.C. Butterflies flying in 24-hour light lost their sense of time.D. Their body clocks were interrupted by the sun.Part V. Cloze (0.5 point each, 10 points) Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Each passage is followed by five questions. For each of them, there are four choices marked A), B), C), and D). You are required to go over the passages quickly and decide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet. Passage OneQuestions 41to 45 are based on the following passage:As you walk along the street in any American city, you see many different faces. You see oriental faces, black faces, and white faces. These are the faces of the United States, a country of immigrants from all over the world. Immigrants are people who leave one country to live permanently in another country.The first immigrants came to North America in the 1600s from northern European countries such as England and Holland. These people generally had light skin and light hair. They came to live in North America because they wanted religious freedom. In the 1700s and early 1800s immigrants continued to move from Europe to the United States. At this time there was one group of unwilling immigrants, black Africans. These people were tricked or forced to come to the United States, where they worked onthe large farms in the south. The blacks had no freedom; they were slaves. In the 1800s many Chinese and Irish immigrants came to the United States. They came because of economic or political problems in their countries. The most recent immigrants to the United States, the Indochinese, Cubans, and Central Americans also came because of economic or political problems in their own countries. Except for the blacks, most of these immigrants thought of the United States as a land of opportunity, of a chance for freedom and new lives.In the United States, these immigrants looked for help from other immigrants who shared the same background, language, and religion. Therefore, there are neighborhoods in each U. S. city made up almost entirely of one ethnic or racial group. There are all Italian, all Puerto Rican, or all Irish neighborhoods in many East Coast cities and all Mexican neighborhoods in the Southwest.In Dearborn, Michigan, there is a large group of Lebanese. There are racial neighborhoods such as oriental Chinatown in San Francisco and black Harlem in New York. There are also neighborhoods with a strong religious feeling such as a Jewish part of Brooklyn in New York. And, of course, there are economic neighborhood divisions; in American cities very often poor people do not live in the same neighborhoods as rich people.This wide variety of neighborhoods in the cities is a reflection of the different groups in American society. American society is a mixture of racial, language, cultural, religious, and economic groups. People sometimes call America a melting pot and compare its society to a soup with many different ingredients. The ingredients (different races, cultures, religions, and economic groups) supposedly mix together to make a smooth soup.

The camel, for example,can experience and bear an increase in the temperature of its body and its blood of 9oC without anything bad happening to it. In addition, it can drink a lot of water at one time; then store enough water in parts of its body to supply its needs for two weeks or more. The kangaroo rat, on the other hand, gets all the water it needs from water that it produces when it breathes. However, most animals need to maintain a fairly constant body temperature, and will die if it rises more than 5oC. Therefore, they need to find some way to stay away from the heat of the summer sun. Nor can many animals either store or produce water in their bodies, as the camel and kangaroo rat can. So they must find ways to keep their bodies from losing water because of the heat. Because very few desert animals can survive the high temperature of a typical summer’s day, most of them are active only in the night. Only after the sun has set does the desert come fully to life. The night is relatively cool, and the darkness provides protection, not only from the sun, but also from other animals and from the birds. So the coming of darkness is the signal for the large majority of animals and insects to start again their search for water and food. When morning comes, most of them seek shelter again: many go underground; nearly all find some dark and cool place where they can keep away from the sun’s heat.For many species of insects, living in the desert is easier than for animals. Like many desert plants, they have a waterproof skin which prevents water loss because of the high temperature. In addition, some species spend all or most of life below ground. Here, for most of the year at least, there is some moisture, and it is generally cooler than on the surface. In the case of ants, only adults leave the underground nests, and they do so only togather food or to defend the nest against attack./doc/799610349.html,pared with other desert animals, the camel can bear___.A) a very low body temperature B) only a little change in body temperatureC) a big increase in body temperature D) a constant change in body temperature47.The kangaroo rat is different from other animals in that___.A) it can produce water through breathing B) it can store water in parts of its bodyC) it can maintain different body temperatures D) it can drinka lot of water at a time48. Why is the desert full of activity in summer nights? ___.A)Because it is cooler and safer for most animals.B)Because animals can find food in the dark.C)Because it is easy to find water at night.D)Because animals cannot sleep at night.49. Why is it easy for many species of insects to live in the desert? ___.A)Because it is not difficult for them to survive there.B)Because they are not afraid of the heat.C)Because it is not difficult for them to find food there.D)Because they have a waterproof skin.50. Most insects live below the ground because ___.A) it is easy for them to build nests there B) it is easy to find water thereC) it is cooler there than on the surfaces D) it is easier to build nests therePassage threeQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:People who have to fly all the time for business usually find it boring. People who fly only once in a while are excited. However, some people feel only terror when they board an airplane. They suffer from a phobia, an illogical fear.If you are afraid of poisonous spiders, this is logical. If you are afraid of all spiders, even harmless ones, this is a phobia because it is illogical. Some people have phobias about heights, being shut up in a small area, or being in a large open area. It is not logical to be afraid of these things when there is no danger, but a phobia is not logical.Fear of flying is another phobia. We always hear about a plane crash, but we don’t hear a bout millions of flights every year that are safe. Riding in a car is thirty times more dangerous than flying, but most of us are not afraid every time we get into a car. It is not logical to be afraid of flying, but research shows that about 12 percent of people have this fear.People with this phobia about flying are afraid for one or more of these reasons. They are afraid of heights. They might be afraid of being in an enclosed place like an elevator or a tunnel on a highway. Maybe they are afraid of the crowds and all the noise and people rushing around at an airport. Some people are afraid of the unknown. They don’t understand the technology of flying and can’t believe that a huge airplane can stay up in the air. Others are afraid of loss of control. They need to control every situation they are in.For some people, a fear of flying is not important because they don’t really need to fly. But what about the people who have to fly if they want to continue in their professions?51. A phobia is________.A)harmful B) illogical C) chemical D) physical52. Fear of flying is called a kind of phobia because_________.A)there is no danger in flyingB)people with phobia are actually afraid of other things rather than flyingC)flying is much safer than riding in a carD)people would become mad when flying53. According to the passage, riding in a car is _________ than flying.A)more comfortableB)more convenientC)more dangerousD)easier54. People are afraid of flying because all of the following EXCEPT________.A)they are afraid of heightsB)they might be afraid of being shut in an enclosed placeC)t hey are afraid of things they don’t kno wD)they are afraid of meeting strange people55. What is the passage probably going to talk about in the following part?A)How can people overcome a fear of flying?B)How can people avoid flying?C)Why is it important for some people having a flying phobia?D)Why are people afraid of flying?Passage fourQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:Believe it or not, optical illusion（错觉）can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion.Bent stripes, called chevrons (人字形)，painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down. Nowthe American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japan's success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes. Excessive speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation. T o help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards are the greatest ------ curves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges. Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars. Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.56. The passage mainly discusses_______.A) a new way of highway speed controlB) a new pattern for painting highwaysC) a new approach to training driversD) a new type of optical illusion57. On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that_______.A) they could avoid speed-related hazardsB) they are driving in the wrong laneC) they should slow down their speedD) they are approaching the speed limit58. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former_______.A) can keep drivers awakeB) can cut road accidents in halfC) will have a longer effect on driversD) will look more attractive59. The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety Plans to_______.A) try out the Japanese method in certain areasB) change the road signs across the countryC) replace straight, horizontal bars with chevronsD) repeat the Japanese road patterns60. What does the author say about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads?A) They are falling out of use in the United States.B) They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.C) They are applicable only on broad roads.D) They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circles.Part IV Cloze 10%Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

In one 21 there are as many different kinds of English as there are speakers of it. None of the two speakers speak in exactly the same 22 . We can always hear differences between them, and the pronunciation of English 23 a great deal in different geographical areas. How do we decide what sort ofEnglish to use as a 24 ? This is not a question that can be answered in the same way for all foreign learners of English. 25 you live in a part of the world like India or West Africa, where there is a long 26 of speaking English for general communication purpose, you should aim to acquire a good variety of the pronunciation of this area. It would be 27 in these circumstances to use as a model BBC English or anything of the sort. On the other hand, if you live in a country 28 there is no traditional use of English, you must take as your model some form of 29 English pronunciation.

(2 points for each, altogether 30points)Directions: There are three passages followed by questions. Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right answer for each question. Write your answers on the answer sheet.Passage 1Penguins (企鹅)live together in large and busy colonies. Every pair has a little piece of ground. When a penguin wants to walk through his neighbor’s ground he must ask permission. If he does not ，he will have to fight.Penguins come and go all day. They fight ，fish and look after their children. All penguins are good parents--the Emperor penguins are perhaps the best parents in the world. They walk in from the sea in the middle of the dark Antarctic winter. They choose their wives in the dark. They can only hear them ——not see them. Then the females lay their eggs and go away for two months. The males look after the eggs. They hold them on their feet inside a fold of skin. If the eggs get cold there will be no chicks. There is no food. The snow falls. The wind blows--sometimes at 150 kilometres an hour. The penguins do not move. When the females return from the sea they will not remember their husbands. It does not matter. Only one thing matters--the eggs. Emperor penguins never fight--unless a penguin leaves a chick for a minute. Then they fight because they all want it.They are strange and wonderful birds. 31. Each pair of penguins lives together with_______. [A] their parents[B]some good neighbors [C]many other penguins [D] their chicks32. According to the passage ，Emperor penguins fight against each other for______. [A] a piece of ground [B]a female [C]an egg[D] a chick left alone by its parents 33. What is very important is______. [A] female penguins [B] male penguins [C]eggs[D] a piece of ground34、Penguins are strange and wonderful birds because_______. [A] they only care about their children [B] the females do not look after their eggs[C] the males eat nothing while holding their eggs inside their warm fold of skin [D] all of the above.35、This passage mainly tells readers something_______. [A] strange about the best parents in the world [B]wonderful about Emperor penguins [C]interesting about penguins' life.[A] Because [B] When [C] If[D] Whether [A]custom [B] use [C] tradition [D] habit[A] fashion [B] mistake [C] nonsense [D] possibility [A] where [B] that[C] which [D] wherever [A] practical [B] domestic [C] native [D] new [A] effective [B] sensitive [C] ordinary [D] careful[D] funny about the fight between the male penguinsPassage 2Thomas Alva Edison was awarded more patents（专利）on inventions than any other American. When he died in 1931，Americans wondered how they could best show their respect for him.One suggestion was that the nation observes a minute or two of total blackout. All electric power would be shut off in homes，streets，and factories.Perhaps this suggested plan made Americans realize fully what Edison and his inventions meant to them. Electric power was too important to the country. Shutting it off for even a short time would have led to complete confusion. A Blackout was out of the question. On the day of Edison's funeral，many people silently dimmed their lights. In this way they honored the man who had done more than anyone else to put the great force of electricity at his country people's fingertips.36.People decided to honor Edison when______.[A] he made the first electric light[B] electric power was 100 years old[C] the country realized electricity's importance[D] he died in 193137. The suggested plan was to_______.[A] turn off the lights in factories and schools[B] observe a few minutes of total silence[C] dim all electric lights[D] shut off all electricity for a short time38. Americans fully realized what Edison's inventions meant when they_______.[A] heard of his death[B] heard of the plan to honor him[C] first used electric power[D] tried to carry out the plan39. The plan was never carried out because_______.[A] not everyone wanted to honor Edison[B] it was too difficult[C] electric power was too important to the country[D] it honored only one of Edison's inventions40. This passage was probably written to______.[A] tell about Edison's inventions[B] explain electricity[C] prove that people wished to honor Edison[D] show what a great man Edison wasPassage 3Friends or contemporaries(同龄人)are a great influence on the actions，thoughts，and words of young people. This influence，known as peer pressure，is quite common among children. Why are children so easily affected by what their peers do，think，or say?Most of us，children included，feel a strong need to be liked by others. We seek acceptance and friendship. In order to gain them，we act like our friends，and listen to their advice，whether or not it is helpful. Some of us even begin to think like our friends，sometimes at the expense of our own beliefs and values. An example that comes to mind is the young person who gets involved with drugs because his peer group is experimenting with them. Parents may try to exert pressure to keep him away from drugs，but frequently peer pressure is too great. This conflict between being your ownperson and，at the same time，responding to the pressures of a group remains a problem for young people.41. The passage mainly talks about_______.[A] friendship[B] peer pressure[C] conflicts between young people and their parents[D] problems for young people42. In the third sentence of the second paragraph，“them”refers to_______.[A] children[B] strong needs to be liked by others[C] acceptance and friendship[D] our friends' advice43.“being your own person”in the last sentence most probably means_______.[A] acting according to your own beliefs and values[B] trying not to tell any lie[C] keeping yourself away from drugs[D] having enough self-confidence44. The second paragraph focuses on_______.[A] what peer pressure is[B] how young people start to take drugs[C] what parents should do for their children[D] why young people are easily influenced by their peers45. Who can influence us on the actions, thoughts?[A] teacher[B] father[C] mother[D] friends and contemporariesIV. Translation.

Beneath each sentence there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right translation for each sentence. Write your answers on the answer sheet.46. 艾米过去除了咖啡，什么都不喝。

Roald dahlRoald Dahl - the author who entertained people with classics like Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and James and the Giant Peach--would have been 100 years old this year. Roald Dahl is most famous for the books he wrote for children, but he also wrote novels and short stories for adults, screenplays and non - fictions, too!Roald Dahl was born near Cardiff, in Wales in 1916. Roald was sent off to boarding school when he was only nine years old. He was very homesick, and had a hard time obeying the strict teachers and the headmaster. In those days, teachers would sometimes hit their students with a cane（藤条）when they misbehaved. Later on, Roald integrated this fear and distrust of adults into many of his children’s books.During World War II, Roald joined the Royal Air Force. At one point, his plane crashed in the Libyan Desert. He was temporarily blinded, and stranded（滞留）in the middle of nowhere. Fortunately, he was rescued and within a few months had made a complete recovery. After his injuries forced him to leave the Air Force, Roald began writing. His first published piece was a magazine article about his plane crash. During the 1950s, he became an accomplished writer of short stories for adults. These stories usually featured mystery, suspense（悬念）, and a twist ending.In 1961, Roald published James and the Giant Peach, which tells the story of a young boy who attempts to escape from his two bad aunts. The boy finally gets away by sailing across the ocean inside a magical giant peach. James and the Giant Peach was prompted by the bedtime stories Roald would make up for his young daughters.1He said that it was a challenge to keep them interested and attentive - he had to make his stories funny, exciting, and original. In 1964. he wrote his most famous book - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, in which a poor boy wins a "golden ticket" to tour a mysterious world.1.

During the 19th century, scientists found that when certain parts of the brain of a person were hurt, he would lose the power of doingcertain things. And so people thought that each part of the brain does a different job. But modem research discovered that this is not so, for it is not easy to show exactly what each part of the brain does.In the past fifty years there has been a great increase in the amount of research done on the brain. Scientists have found out the way the brain works is not so simple as people in general may think. Chemists fell us that about 100 000 chemical changes take place in the brain every second. Some recent researches also suggest that we can remember everything that happens to us. We, may not be able to think of the things we have heard and seen, but it is kept there in the storehouse ( 宝库 ) of the humanbrain. Earlier scientists thought that is not true. As long as the brain is given plenty of exercise, it keeps its power. It has been proved that an old person who has always been active in the mind has a quicker mind than a young person who has only done physical work without using much of his brain.(1).

People landing at London''s Heathrow airport have something newto look at as they fly over Britain''s capital city. It is attractive, simple and a little strange. The Millennium Dome ( 千禧穹 )is a huge semi-circle of plastic and steel and it contains the largest public space in the world. It has been built to house an exhibition of all that is best in British life, learning and leisure.The Millennium Dome was designed by Sir Richard Rogers, one ofBritain''s most famous architects ( 建筑师 ) . His work points the way to new developments in building. Think of it as a giant symbolof the buildings in which we will all be living and working in the near-future.Buildings are also a part of history. They express the culture ofthe times. Sir Richard Rogers is aware of this responsibility. While different designers have individual styles, their work also has a common style. That is: to express the values of the information age. What is an "information age" building? The Dome is a good example. After theMillennium exhibition ends, it will be used for another purpose. Just as people no longer have "jobs for life", modem buildings are designed for a number of different uses. Another Richard Roger''s building, the PompidouCenter in France, uses the idea that information is communication. Instead of being hidden in the walls, heating pipes and elevators are open to public view. The PompidouCenter is a very honest building. It tells you how it works.(1). The Millennium Dome has been originally built to holdan exhibition ( )A. of different building designsB. .of everything that can draw the attention of people C.of the finest things in BritainD.of recent developments in information technology(2).

Sir Richard Rogers clearly knows mat it is his duty to ( )A. create something out of a unique styleB.house those people who will often change their jobs C.make his buildings historic onesD.construct a building that can meet the changes of the modem age(4). The PompidouCenter in France is outstanding in the fact that ( )A. people in it are able to visit each other convenientlyB.visitors can see clearly the structure and facilities of the whole buildingC.it makes use of the best techniques invented in the information ageD.it was designed and built by an honest British designer(5). This short passage mainly tells us about ( )A. the unique contribution of a famous architectB.modem buildings of various stylesC.a few developments in house-buildingD.the common features of British and French buildings4. One Sunday, Mark decided to go sailing in his boat with hisfriendDan, but Dan happened to be away. Dan''s brother John offered to goinstead though he did not know anything about sailing. Mark agreed and they set out to sea.Soon they found themselves in a thick fog. Mark was sure they would be hit by a big ship.

In the early morning he fell asleep. He was having abad dream when a shout woke him up. A ship, the Good Hope, came up and he climbed onto it and thanked the captain.

For each questions there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1College is a new and different experience for me. I'm away from home, so I have many things to adjust to, e.g. being on my own, talking with friendly people. These are some of the things I like about college.First of all, living at college gives me a sense of responsibility, of being on my own. My parents aren't around to say, "No, you'renot going out tonight." or "Did you finish your homework?" Everything I do has to be my decision, and that makes me responsible for my own life. During the second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. And when I got to the bank, I had to decide whether to have a current or savings account and whether or not to get a credit card. Decisions! Decisions!Friendly people, that's another thing I like about college. On my first day I came to Marymount University here in Virginia from New York, I was a bit confused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in. We did not know the building we were supposed to go to, but the guard was very nice. With a smile, he told us what building we were looking for and where we could park our car. My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, and I knew I had to go through some glass doors, but my mother and I didn't know which ones. Some students saw me and asked, "Are you a new student?" When they found out I was looking for New Gerard, one said: "Oh, just follow us; that's where we're going." Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendly people around to talk with.I do like a lot of things about college, but that doesn't mean I don't think about things at home. Although I like college, I can still get homesick: New York is a very good place, too!31.The text is perhaps written by ____a____.A.a new studentB. a new teacherC. a foreign reporterD.a foreign visitor32. What does "gives me a sense of responsibility" in the first sentence of Paragraph 2mean? It means ___d_____.A. I shall be responsible for my parentsB. I shall be responsible for my teacherC. I shall be responsible for the schoolD. I shall be responsible for myself33. From Paragraph 3 we know that ____d____.A. the writer knew Marymount University quite wellB. the writer was a student from VirginiaC. the writer came to Marymount University aloneD. the writer liked his/her dorm very much34. What is New Gerard?cA. It's a student's name.B. It's a teacher's nameC. It's a dorm's name.D. It's a school's name.35. Which of the following is NOT true?dA. People in Marymount University are friendly.B. The writer likes the new experience in the university.C. The writer drove to Marymount University on the first day.D. The writer is not homesick.Passage 2At the center of our solar system is a star called the Sun. It is a ball of very hot gases. Its diameter is more than 100 times as big as that of the Earth. It gives off powerful rays of light in the form of radiant energy. This energy travels to the Earth at a speed of approximately 300,000 kilometers per second. This means that sunlight takes 8.33 minutes to get to the Earth.The temperature on the surface of the Sun is about 5,520°C, and it is much hotter inside. Scientists now believe that the heat of the Sun comes from natural atomic energy. In this process,hydrogen is believed to be changed to helium (氦) with an enormous amount of energy given off. The mass (matter) is changed to energy. This energy is in the form of heat, light, and other forms of radiation.36. The author makes all of the following statements about the Sun EXCEPT that it___d___.A.is a starB.emits light raysC.is made up of gassesD.is more than 100 times heavier than the Earth37. It can be inferred from the passage that the temperature of the outer rim (缘) of theSun is ___b___.A.hotter than the Earth’s interiorB.cooler than the Sun’s interiorC.as hot as the Earth’s interiorD.as hot as the Sun’s interior38. The author implies that scientists at one time did not believe that atomic energywas ___a___.A.the source of the Sun’s heatB.contained in the Earth’s coreC.able to travel at the speed of lightD.less powerful than solar energy39. According to the passage, which of the following best describes the manner inwhich the Sun is thought to produce energy?dA.Helium heats hydrogen, which gives off light.B.Heat and light melt hydrogen, which produces helium.C.Light produces hydrogen and helium, which gives off energy.D.Hydrogen turns into helium, which gives off light and heat.40. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?dA.The Sun --- the Largest Star in the Sky.B.The Sun --- The Brightest Star in the Sky.C.The Sun --- Ball of Hot Gasses.D.The Sun --- Great Source of Energy.Passage 3In 1920, after some thirty-nine years of problems with disease, high costs, and politics, the Panama Canal was officially opened, finally linking the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans by allowing ships to pass through the fifty-mile canal zone instead of traveling some seven thousand miles around Cape Horn. It takes a ship approximately 8 hours to complete the trip through the canal and costs an average of fifteen thousand dollars, one-tenth of what it would cost an average ship to round the Horn. More than fifteen thousand ships pass through its locks (船闸) each year.The French initiated the project but sold their rights to the United States. The latter will control it until the end of the twentieth century when Panama takes over its duties.41. Who currently controls the Panama Canal?cA. FranceB. PanamaC. the United SatesD. the Canal Zone42. Which is NOT mentioned as one of the difficulties met during the building of thePanama Canal?cA.There were many dispute among politicians.B.There was not enough fund for the project.C.It took too much time to complete the canal.D.A lot of workers were taken ill.43. On the average, how much would it cost a ship to travel around Cape Horn?bA. $150.B. $150,000C. 15,000D. $1,50044. In what year was construction probably begun on the canal?aA. 1881B. 1939C. 1920D. 189945. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?dA.The canal brought about new diseases to the canal zone.B.Most of the workers came from France during the early stage of the project.C.Before the canal was constructed, ships traveling from the Pacific to theAtlantic had to pay a lot more money to Panama government.D.A different government will take control of the canal around 2000.Part IV Vocabulary and Structure (25 points)Section ADirections:In this section there are 15 incomplete sentences.

Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.And so there are many similarities between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. However, the fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor 61 that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage; for there are very important differences 62 the teacher’s work and the actor’s work. The actor has to speak words which he ahs learned 63 ; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part; 64 his movements and the way in which he uses his voice are usually fixed 65 . What he has to do is to make all these carefully learned words and actions seem natural on the stage.The good teacher works in 66 different way. His audience takes an active part in his play, they ask and answer questions, they 67 orders, and if they do not understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act 68 the need of his audience which is his class. He cannot keep his part in mind, but must 69 it as he goes along.I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to play a part in a stage-play because their brains would not keep discipline; they could not keep strictly to 70 .c61.
