Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them 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 centre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something that has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand --- he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him.What visual artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors out of the countless patterns is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors, nor have felt the delight which they brought to the artist.Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and repose(歇息). Their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, and that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, and that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint a gangrenous(长坏疽的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something --- all of which means that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.21. It is hard to explain what a painter is saying, because________.A) most painters do not express themselves wellB) a painter uses unusual words and phrasesC) a painter uses shapes and colors instead of wordsD) many painters do not say anything22. A painter chooses certain shapes and colors because he feels that they ______.A) have been used frequently in the past C) are worth showing to the publicB) are easy to work with D) will be most attractive to the public23. The writer says that contemporary artists might say their choice of subject ________.A) carries a message to the publicB) only provides interesting patternC) has no pattern or formD) teaches the public important truths24. The passage implied but not stated________.A) a painting is more easily understood than a symphonyB) art is merely the arranging of shape and colorC) every artist tries to say something to the publicD) one must look beyond shape and color to understand what the artist is sayingPassage TwoQuestions 25 to 29 are based on the following passage.One day in 1754, a man went to the market in Florence, Italy, and bought some meat. The shopkeeper wrapped the meat in a piece of paper and the man took it home. When he unwrapped the meat, he was surprised to see some old writings on the paper.This man was in charge of the public library, so he knew a lot about old books and old writings. He realized that the paper was a page of scientific notes.“Only one man wrote like that,” the librarian said to himself. “It was Galileo(伽利略) who wrote these notes!”Who was Galileo? Galileo was a famous Italian scientist. He was a man of ideas, but he was also a man of action. He made many experiments in order to find out more about the earth and the universe. Galileo believed that scientists should not only sit in universities and talk about theories, but they should also make practical experiments and learn from the results.Galileo wrote down notes of all the experiments he made. After Galileo’s death in 1642, Viviani, one of his students, collected the notes together and put them into his own library. However, when Viviani died, nobody looked at Galileo’s notes any longer. For many years, people forgot about them.The librarian hurried back to the market and asked the shopkeeper where he had got the paper from. The shopkeeper led him to the house where he bought the paper from. In the house, the librarian found many more of Galileo’s notes. The family gave them to him.In this way, a large number of important notes about Galileo’s experiments were saved.25. The librari an got Galileo’s notes from ____.A) the butcher C) a family living in Viviani’s houseB) Viviani D) the market near Viviani’s house26. Which statement about Galileo is NOT true?A) He was full of ideas. C) He was an Italian.B) He did a lot of experiments. D) He gave his notes to Viviani.27. Which statement about Viviani is NOT true?A) He kept Galileo’s notes.B) He was Galileo’s student.C) He passed on the notes to his daughter.D) He put the notes in his own library.28. After Viviani’s death, the notes ____.A) were given to one of his friends C) were lostB) were left somewhere in his house D) lost its value29. It can be inferred from the story that ____.A) the family was unaware that they had Galileo’s notesB) the librarian bought the notesC) Viviani gave the notes to the familyD) the shopkeeper informed the librarian of the notesPassage ThreeQuestions 30 to 34 are based on the following passageWe were married in October just prior to the beginning of heavy snowfalls. It would snow heavily throughout the whole winter. Our only entertainment was listening to the radio or attending the local high school sporting events. My new husband was a lover of sports. He had been a world-class boxer and also participated in most sports. I was a lover of the arts. Speech, drama and dance were my first love. The nearest town with this kind of entertainment was forty miles away and the highway was closed off during much of the winter.We had only been married seven months when I received word that my mother, who was battling cancer, would not live much longer. Even though there was the dairy with 75 cows and a large farm to take care of, as soon as my husband read the telegram, he sadly said, “Honey, get your bags packed while I make reservations for you. Your place is with your mother and your father right now.” To him there had been no other decision to make. Every week I would receive a letter telling me all about how the farm was doing and inquiring about my parents and how we were all doing. Little was said about his sadness of being alone, or of missing his new wife, except at the very end of his letters where an unmistakeable “I love you” was written. Teenage dream letters would have been filled with remarks of undying love and pain of missing me, but his letters were simple words of reality.Four months later, after the funeral and final matters were taken care of with my father and brother, I returned to Idaho where I knew my husband would be at the airport to meet me.The look in his eyes told me more than any dream letter could. The joy and honesty of love was deep. On the 80-mile drive to our home, I talked incessantly while he quietly listened, without interrupting. When he finally had a chance to say something, he asked me to open the glove compartment of the car and take out an envelope with my name on it. “I wanted to give you something special to let you know how much I missed you,” he said quietly.I opened the envelope to find season tickets, for both of us, to all of the area’s fine art functions. Our income was not all that great and I was stunned. “I don’t believe this,” I cried. “You don’t enjoy these things!”When I finally stopped protesting, he reached out, hugged me, and quietly said, “No, but you do, and I will learn.”In that moment I realized marriage wasn’t 50/50, but real love was made of 100/0 sometimes. Love means putting the other one first. His example taught his young wife a great lesson – a lesson that has made a happy marriage for 51 years.30. For the entertainment on the farm during the winter ______.A) there were many sporting eventsB) one could only listen to the radio or attend local high school sporting eventsC) there were many boxing matchesD) one could easily attend speech, drama, and dance programs31. How did the husband react when they were told the author’s mother was dying soon?A) He felt sorry that his wife had to leave him.B) He found it difficult to make a decision.C) He encouraged his wife to go back and take care of her mother.D) He was worried about having to do the heavy farm work alone.32. Which of the following was NOT mentioned in the husband’s letters to the author?A) How he was doing with the farm.B) Asking about the author’s parents.C) The words “I love you”.D) How he missed her.33. What does “incessantly” mean in the 4th paragraph mean?A)loudly B) rapidly C) slowly D) continuously34. Why was the author moved when her husband gave her season tickets to all of the area’s fineart functions?A) Because the tickets were difficult to get.B) Because the husband showed his love by trying to share her interests.C) Because her husband finally had a taste for arts.D) Because he pleased her in a romantic way.Part Ⅲ• Vocabulary and Structure (9 points)Directions: There are 18 incomplete sentences in this part.

mood.Section II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts.Answer the questions below each text bychoosing[A],[B],[C]or[D].Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(40 points)Text 1The decision of the New York Philharmonic to hire Alan Gilbert as its next music director has been the talk of the classical-music world ever since the sudden announcement of his appointment in 2009.For the most part,the response has been favorable,to say the least.“Hooray!At last!”wrote Anthony Tommasini,a sober-sided classical-music critic.One of the reasons why the appointment came as such a surprise,however,is that Gilbert is comparatively little known.Even Tommasini,who had advocated Gilbert’s appointment in the Times,calls him“an unpretentious musician with no air of the formidable conductor about him.”As a description of the next music director of an orchestra that has hitherto been led by musicians like Gustav Mahler and Pierre Boulez,that seems likely to have struck at least some Times readers as faint praise.For my part,I have no idea whether Gilbert is a great conductor or even a good one.To be sure,he performs an impressive variety of interesting compositions,but it is not necessary for me to visit Avery Fisher Hall,or anywhere else,to hear interesting orchestral music.All I have to do is to go to my CD shelf,or boot up my computer and download still more recorded music from iTunes.Devoted concertgoers who reply that recordings are no substitute for live performance are missing the point.For the time,attention,and money of the art-loving public,classical instrumentalists must compete not only with opera houses,dance troupes,theater companies,and museums,but also with the recorded performances of the great classical musicians of the 20th century.There recordings are cheap,available everywhere,and very often much higher in artistic quality than today’s live performances;moreover,they can be“consumed”at a time and place of the listener’s choosing.The widespread availability of such recordings has thus brought about a crisis in the institution of the traditional classical concert.One possible response is for classical performers to program attractive new music that is not yet available on record.Gilbert’s own interest in new music has been widely noted:Alex Ross,a classical-music critic,has described him as a man who iscapable of turning the Philharmonic into“a markedly different,more vibrant organization.”But what will be the nature of that difference?Merely expanding the orchestra’s repertoire will not be enough.If Gilbert and the Philharmonic are to succeed,they must first change the relationship between America’s oldest orchestra and the new audience it hops to attract.21.We learn from Para.1 that Gilbert’s appointment has[A]incurred criticism.[B]raised suspicion.[C]received acclaim.[D]aroused curiosity.22.Tommasini regards Gilbert as an artist who is[A]influential.[B]modest.[C]respectable.[D]talented.23.The author believes that the devoted concertgoers[A]ignore the expenses of live performances.[B]reject most kinds of recorded performances.[C]exaggerate the variety of live performances.[D]overestimate the value of live performances.24.According to the text,which of the following is true of recordings?[A]They are often inferior to live concerts in quality.[B]They are easily accessible to the general public.[C]They help improve the quality of music.[D]They have only covered masterpieces.25.Regarding Gilbert’s role in revitalizing the Philharmonic,the author feels[A]doubtful.[B]enthusiastic.[C]confident.[D]puzzled.Text 2When Liam McGee departed as president of Bank of America in August,his explanation was surprisingly straight up.Rather than cloaking his exit in the usual vague excuses,he came right out and said he was leaving“to pursue my goal of running a company.”Broadcasting his ambition was“very much my decision,”McGee says.Within two weeks,he was talking for the first time with the board of Hartford Financial Services Group,which named him CEO and chairman on September 29.McGee says leaving without a position lined up gave him time to reflect on whatkind of company he wanted to run.It also sent a clear message to the outside world about his aspirations.And McGee isn’t alone.In recent weeks the No.2 executives at Avon and American Express quit with the explanation that they were looking for a CEO post.As boards scrutinize succession plans in response to shareholder pressure,executives who don’t get the nod also may wish to move on.A turbulent business environment also has senior managers cautious of letting vague pronouncements cloud their reputations.As the first signs of recovery begin to take hold,deputy chiefs may be more willing to make the jump without a net.In the third quarter,CEO turnover was down 23%from a year ago as nervous boards stuck with the leaders they had,according to Liberum Research.As the economy picks up,opportunities will abound for aspiring leaders.The decision to quit a senior position to look for a better one is unconventional.For years executives and headhunters have adhered to the rule that the most attractive CEO candidates are the ones who must be poached.Says Korn/Ferry senior partner Dennis Carey:”I can’t think of a single search I’ve done where a board has not instructed me to look at sitting CEOs first.”Those who jumped without a job haven’t always landed in top positions quickly.Ellen Marram quit as chief of Tropicana a decade age,saying she wanted to be a CEO.It was a year before she became head of a tiny Internet-based commodities exchange.Robert Willumstad left Citigroup in 2005 with ambitions to be a CEO.He finally took that post at a major financial institution three years later.Many recruiters say the old disgrace is fading for top performers.The financial crisis has made it more acceptable to be between jobs or to leave a bad one.“The traditional rule was it’s safer to stay where you are,but that’s been fundamentally inverted,”says one headhunter.“The people who’ve been hurt the worst are those who’ve stayed too long.”26.When McGee announced his departure,his manner can best be described as being[A]arrogant.[B]frank.[C]self-centered.[D]impulsive.27.According to Paragraph 2,senior executives’ quitting may be spurred by[A]their expectation of better financial status.[B]their need to reflect on their private life.[C]their strained relations with the boards.[D]their pursuit of new career goals.28.The word“poached”(Line 3,Paragraph 4)most probably means[A]approved of.[B]attended to.[C]hunted for.[D]guarded against.29.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that[A]top performers used to cling to their posts.[B]loyalty of top performers is getting out-dated.[C]top performers care more about reputations.[D]it’s safer to stick to the traditional rules.30.Which of the following is the best title for the text?[A]CEOs:Where to Go? [B]CEOs:All the Way Up?[C]Top Managers Jump without a Net [D]The Only Way Out for Top PerformersText 3The rough guide to marketing success used to be that you got what you paid for.No longer.While traditional“paid”media–such as television commercials and print advertisements–still play a major role,companies today can exploit many alternative forms of media.Consumers passionate about a product may create“owned”media by sending e-mail alerts about products and sales to customers registered with its Web site.The way consumers now approach the broad range of factors beyond conventional paid media.Paid and owned media are controlled by marketers promoting their own products.For earned media,such marketers act as the initiator for users’ responses.But in some cases,one marketer’s owned media become another marketer’s paid media–for instance,when an e-commerce retailer sells ad space on its Web site.We define such sold media as owned media whose traffic is so strong that other organizations place their content or e-commerce engines within that environment.This trend,which we believe is still in its infancy,effectively began with retailers and travel providers such as airlines and hotels and will no doubt go further.Johnson&Johnson,forexample,has created Baby Center,a stand-alone media property that promotes complementary and even competitive products.Besides generating income,the presence of other marketers makes the site seem objective,gives companies opportunities to learn valuable information about the appeal of other companies’ marketing,and may help expand user traffic for all companies concerned.The same dramatic technological changes that have provided marketers with more(and more diverse)communications choices have also increased the risk that passionate consumers will voice their opinions in quicker,more visible,and much more damaging ways.Such hijacked media are the opposite of earned media:an asset or campaign becomes hostage to consumers,other stakeholders,or activists who make negative allegations about a brand or product.Members of social networks,for instance,are learning that they can hijack media to apply pressure on the businesses that originally created them.If that happens,passionate consumers would try to persuade others to boycott products,putting the reputation of the target company at risk.In such a case,the company’s response may not be sufficiently quick or thoughtful,and the learning curve has been steep.Toyota Motor,for example,alleviated some of the damage from its recall crisis earlier this year with a relatively quick and well-orchestratedsocial-media response campaign,which included efforts to engage with consumers directly on sites such as Twitter and the social-news site Digg.31.Consumers may create“earned”media when they are[A]obsessed with online shopping at certain Web sites.[B]inspired by product-promoting e-mails sent to them.[C]eager to help their friends promote quality products.[D]enthusiastic about recommending their favorite products.32.According to Paragraph 2,sold media feature[A]a safe business environment.[B]random competition.[C]strong user traffic.[D]flexibility in organization.33.The author indicates in Paragraph 3 that earned media[A]invite constant conflicts with passionate consumers.[B]can be used to produce negative effects in marketing.[C]may be responsible for fiercer competition.[D]deserve all the negative comments about them.34.Toyota Motor’s experience is cited as an example of[A]responding effectively to hijacked media.[B]persuading customers into boycotting products.[C]cooperating with supportive consumers.[D]taking advantage of hijacked media.35.Which of the following is the text mainly about?[A]Alternatives to conventional paid media.[B]Conflict between hijacked and earned media.[C]Dominance of hijacked media.[D]Popularity of owned media.Text 4It’s no surprise that Jennifer Senior’s insightful,provocative magazine cover story,“I love My Children,I Hate My Life,”is arousing much chatter–nothing gets people talking like the suggestion that child rearing is anything less than a completely fulfilling,life-enriching experience.Rather than concluding that children make parents either happy or miserable,Senior suggests we need to redefine happiness:instead of thinking of it as something that can be measured by moment-to-moment joy,we should consider being happy as a past-tense condition.Even though the day-to-day experience of raising kids can be soul-crushingly hard,Senior writes that“the very things that in the moment dampen our moods can later be sources of intense gratification and delight.”The magazine cover showing an attractive mother holding a cute baby is hardly the only Madonna-and-child image on newsstands this week.There are also stories about newly adoptive–and newly single–mom Sandra Bullock,as well as theusual“Jennifer Aniston is pregnant”news.Practically every week features at least one celebrity mom,or mom-to-be,smiling on the newsstands.In a society that so persistently celebrates procreation,is it any wonder that admitting you regret having children is equivalent to admitting you supportkitten-killing?It doesn’t seem quite fair,then,to compare the regrets of parents to the regrets of the children.Unhappy parents rarely are provoked to wonder if they shouldn’t have had kids,but unhappy childless folks are bothered with the message that children are the single most important thing in the world:obviously their misery must be a direct result of the gaping baby-size holes in their lives.Of course,the image of parenthood that celebrity magazines like Us Weekly and People present is hugely unrealistic,especially when the parents are single mothers like Bullock.According to several studies concluding that parents are less happy than childless couples,single parents are the least happy of all.No shock there,considering how much work it is to raise a kid without a partner to lean on;yet to hear Sandra and Britney tell it,raising a kid on their“own”(read:with round-the-clock help)is a piece of cake.It’s hard to imagine that many people are dumb enough to want children just because Reese and Angelina make it look so glamorous:most adults understand that a baby is not a haircut.But it’s interesting to wonder if the images we see every week of stress-free,happiness-enhancing parenthood aren’t in some small,subconscious way contributing to our own dissatisfactions with the actual experience,in the same way that a small part of us hoped getting“the Rachel”might make us look just a little bit like Jennifer Aniston.36.Jennifer Senior suggests in her article that raising a child can bring[A]temporary delight[B]enjoyment in progress[C]happiness in retrospect[D]lasting reward37.We learn from Paragraph 2 that[A]celebrity moms are a permanent source for gossip.[B]single mothers with babies deserve greater attention.[C]news about pregnant celebrities is entertaining.[D]having children is highly valued by the public.38.It is suggested in Paragraph 3 that childless folks[A]are constantly exposed to criticism.[B]are largely ignored by the media.[C]fail to fulfill their social responsibilities.[D]are less likely to be satisfied withtheir life.39.According to Paragraph 4,the message conveyed by celebrity magazines is[A]soothing.[B]ambiguous.[C]compensatory.[D]misleading.40.Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph?[A]Having children contributes little to the glamour of celebrity moms.[B]Celebrity moms have influenced our attitude towards child rearing.[C]Having children intensifies our dissatisfaction with life.[D]We sometimes neglect the happiness from child rearing.Part BDirections:The following paragraph are given in a wrong order.For Questions 41-45,you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent text by choosing from the list A-G to filling them into the numbered boxes.Paragraphs E and G have been correctly placed.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(10 points)[A]No disciplines have seized on professionalism with as much enthusiasm as the humanities.You can,Mr Menand points out,became a lawyer in three years and a medical doctor in four.But the regular time it takes to get a doctoral degree in the humanities is nine years.Not surprisingly,up to half of all doctoral students in English drop out before getting their degrees.[B]His concern is mainly with the humanities:Literature,languages,philosophy and so on.These are disciplines that are going out of style:22%of American college graduates now major in business compared with only 2%in history and 4%in English.However,many leading American universities want their undergraduates to have a grounding in the basic canon of ideas that every educated person should posses.But most find it difficult to agree on what a“general education”should look like.At Harvard,Mr Menand notes,“the great books are read because they have been read”-they form a sort of social glue.[C]Equally unsurprisingly,only about half end up with professorships for which they entered graduate school.There are simply too few posts.This is partly because universities continue to produce ever more PhDs.But fewer students want to studyhumanities subjects:English departments awarded more bachelor’s degrees in 1970-71 than they did 20 years later.Fewer students requires fewer teachers.So,at the end of a decade of theses-writing,many humanities students leave the profession to do something for which they have not been trained.[D]One reason why it is hard to design and teach such courses is that they can cut across the insistence by top American universities that liberal-arts educations and professional education should be kept separate,taught in different schools.Many students experience both varieties.Although more than half of Harvard undergraduates end up in law,medicine or business,future doctors and lawyers must study anon-specialist liberal-arts degree before embarking on a professional qualification.[E]Besides professionalizing the professions by this separation,top American universities have professionalised the professor.The growth in public money for academic research has speeded the process:federal research grants rose fourfold between 1960and 1990,but faculty teaching hours fell by half as research took its toll.Professionalism has turned the acquisition of a doctoral degree into a prerequisite for a successful academic career:as late as 1969a third of American professors did not possess one.But the key idea behind professionalisation,argues Mr Menand,is that“the knowledge and skills needed for a particular specialization are transmissible but not transferable.”So disciplines acquire a monopoly not just over the production of knowledge,but also over the production of the producers of knowledge.[F]The key to reforming higher education,concludes Mr Menand,is to alter the way in which“the producers of knowledge are produced.”Otherwise,academics will continue to think dangerously alike,increasingly detached from the societies which they study,investigate and criticize.”Academic inquiry,at least in some fields,may need to become less exclusionary and more holistic.”Yet quite how that happens,Mr Menand dose not say.[G]The subtle and intelligent little book The Marketplace of Ideas:Reform and Resistance in the American University should be read by every student thinking of applying to take a doctoral degree.They may then decide to go elsewhere.For something curious has been happening in American Universities,and Louis Menand,aprofessor of English at Harvard University,captured it skillfully.G→41.→42.→E→43.→44.→45.Part CDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.Your translation should be written carefully on ANSWER SHEET 2.(10 points)With its theme that“Mind is the master weaver,”creating our inner character and outer circumstances,the book As a Man Thinking by James Allen is an in-depth exploration of the central idea of self-help writing.(46)Allen’s contribution was to take an assumption we all share-that because we are not robots we therefore control our thoughts-and reveal its erroneousnature.Because most of us believe that mind is separate from matter,we think that thoughts can be hidden and made powerless;this allows us to think one way and act another.However,Allen believed that the unconscious mind generates as much action as the conscious mind,and(47)while we may be able to sustain the illusion of control through the conscious mind alone,in reality we are continually faced with a question:“Why cannot I make myself do this or achieve that?”Since desire and will are damaged by the presence of thoughts that do not accord with desire,Allen concluded:“We do not attract what we want,but what weare.”Achievement happens because you as a person embody the external achievement;you don’t“get”success but become it.There is no gap between mind and matter.Part of the fame of Allen’s book is its contention that“Circumstances do not make a person,they reveal him.”(48)This seems a justification for neglect of those in need,and a rationalization of exploitation,of the superiority of those at the top and the inferiority of those at the bottom.This,however,would be a knee-jerk reaction to a subtle argument.Each set of circumstances,however bad,offers a unique opportunity for growth.If circumstances always determined the life and prospects of people,then humanity would never haveprogressed.In fat,(49)circumstances seem to be designed to bring out the best in us and if we fel that we have been“wronged”then we are unlikely to begin a conscious effort to escape from oure situation.Nevertheless,as any biographer knows,a person’s early life and its conditions are often the greatest gift to an individual.The sobering aspect of Allen’s book is that we have no one else to blame for our present condition except ourselves.(50)The upside is the possibilities contained in knowing that everything is up to us;where before we were experts in the array of limitations,now we become authorities of what is possible.SectionⅢWritingPart

Harrison Ford is thought to be one of the few movie stars ______ as a carpenterbefore.A. to workB. to be workingC. to have workedD. to have been workingSection BDirections:Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each wordIn a study of the university of Minnesota, twins (some raised together and others who had grown up apart) were tested for a wide range of personality traits(特征). In terms of happiness-41 as the ability to enjoy life-twins who are separated soon after birth were much less alike than twins raised together. But when it comes to unhappiness, the twins raised apart-some without contact for as long as 64 years-were as 42 as those who had grown up together.Why is unhappiness less influenced by 43 ? When we are happy, we are more responsive to people and keep up 44 better than when we are feeling sad.This doesn’t mean, however, that some people are born to be sad and that’s that. Unhappiness may be related to genes, but this inherited trait can be influenced by45 choice. You can increase your happiness through your own actions.In a whole 46 of experiments by psychologists John Reich and Alex Zautra at Arizona State University, they asked students to select their favourite activities from a list of everyday pleasures-things like going to a movie, talking with friends and playing cards.Then the researchers 47 some of the students in the experiment to increase the number of favourite activities the participated in for one month (the participants in the study 48 as controls(对照组) and did not vary their activity level). Result: Those who did more of the things they enjoyed were happier than those who didn’t. The conclusion, then, is that the pleasure we get from life is 49 ours to control.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Is there a job for you after college? What does the world of work keep in store for you? That 50 in large measure on who you are.If you’ve enjoyed your studies in English and history, 50 , you’ll be glad to know that in a recent survey by Hobart and William Smith Colleges in New York State, a majority of CEOs said that the liberal arts(文科)are essential for 52 critical thinking and problem-solving skills. If you thought college was for acquiring specific work skills, only 37 percent of the CEOs in the survey agree with you.If you plan to start your career as a secretary, be aware that this job is undergoing tremendous 53 . In offices where secretaries have not already been eliminated, the 54 role of a clerk is now unrecognizable. Most bosses 55 their own mails and meetings and travel plans, thanks to e-mail and the Internet, so secretaries are 56 taking on higher-level tasks such as drafting contracts and handling customer service problems. Those willing to expand their 57 should do well.If you are a woman interested in law enforcement(执法), note that some states and cities are working hard to reach 58 standards for female applicants. Although most small suburban police departments are deeply traditional, and some are 59 even to employ woman, among the nation’s largest forces about 15 percent of the officers are female, five times as many as a generation ago.Degrees in sports management are also 60 . Two hundred U.S colleges and universities, 10 times as many in 1985, now 61 undergraduate courses in sports management, and some have advanced degree programs. At some school you can also上海市教育考试院保留版权英语2011 春第5页(共13页)combine an MBA in sports management with a law degree.62 , if you’ve set your sights on a traditional MBA, take heart. MBA recruitment (招聘)is way up, and salaries are 63 . But money isn’t all today’s MBAs are looking for.

Strictly63. A. competitive B. moderate C. fixed D. regular64. A. give out B. agree with C. wonder about D. focus onSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)They like using the Internet. They have lots of pocket money to spend. And they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us. Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in, and the things they want to buy-games, CDs and clothing-are easily sold on the Web.But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards. Most have to use a parent’s card. They want a facility that allows them to spend money.That may come sooner than they think: new ways to take pocket money into cyber (网络的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic. If successful, theseproducts can stimulate online sales.In general, teenagers spend huge amounts: $153bn (billion) in the US last year and £20bn annually in the UK. Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school-88 percent in the US, 69 percent in the UK. According to the Jupiter Research, one in eight of those with Internet access has bought something online-mainly CDs and books.In most cases, parents pay for these purchases with credit cards, an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children. Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street. They are more likely to ask “Why?” if you ask to spend some money online.One way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cybercash is through prepaid cards such as InternetCash in the US and Smart cards in the UK. Similar to those for pay-as-you-go mobile telephones, they are sold in amounts such as £20 or $50 with a concealed 14-digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account.65. What does the word “They” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Sellers.B. Buyers.C. Teenagers.D. Parents.66. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. More than half of the teenagers in the US and the UK have Internet access.B. Teenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards.C. Most teenagers in the US and the UK have bought something online.D. Teenagers found it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop.67. A new way to help teenagers shop online is to use ______.A. a new machineB. special coins and notesC. prepaid cardsD. pay-as-you-go mobile phones68. What is the passage mainly about?A. Online shopping traps.B. Internet users in the US and the UK.C. New credit cards for parents.D. The arrival of cyber pocket money.上海市教育考试院保留版权英语2011 春第7页(共13页)69. This passage is most probably ______.A. an advertisement for enrolling new employeesB. a school report at the end of an academic yearC. a self-introduction meant to apply for a jobD. a part of a recommendation letter from a university70. According to the “Experience” section, we can infer that Donald Sloan can be _____.A. a wise leaderB. a skillful performerC. a gifted scientistD. a good social worker71. From the passage we can learn that Donald Sloan ______.A. is good at singing and dancingB. is about to graduate from a universityC. has an interest in being a surgeonD. specializes in psychology(C)Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains, visited the moon, and surveyed the planets. But for all the progress, people still don’t know one another very well.That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s “feast of conversation”-events where individuals pair with persons they don’t know for three hours of guided talk designed to get the past “Where are you from?”Mr. Zeldin, an Oxford University professor, heads Oxford Muse, a 10-year-old foundation based on the idea that what people need is not more information, but more inspiration and encouragement.The “feast” in London looks not at politics or events, but at how people have felt about work, relations among the sexes, hopes and fears, enemies and authority, the shape of their lives. The “menu of conversation” includes topics like “How have your priorities changed over the years?” Or, “What have you rebelled against the past?”As participants gathered, Zeldin opened with a speech: that despite instant communications in a globalized age, issues of human heart remain. Many people are lonely, or in routines that discourage knowing the depth of one another. “We are trapped in shallow conversations and the whole point now is to think, which is sometimes painful,” he says. “But thinking interaction is what separates us from other species, except maybe dogs…who do have generations of human interactions.”The main rules of the “feast”: Don’t pair with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer. The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of young adults to seniors, in sun hats, ties and dresses, looked to see whom with for hours. But 15 minutes later, everyone was seated and talking, continuing full force until organizers interrupted them 180 minutes later.“It’s encouraging to see the world is not just a place of oppression and distance from each other,” Zeldin summed up. “What we did is not ordinary, but it can’t be madder than the world already is.”Some said they felt “liberated”to talk on sensitive topics. Thirty-something Peter, from East London, said that “it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”72. What can the “conversations” be best described as?A. Deep and one-on-one.B. Sensitive and mad.C. Instant and inspiring.D. Ordinary and encouraging.73. In a “feast of conversations”, participants ______.A. pair freely with anyone they likeB. have a guided talk for a set of period of timeC. ask questions they themselves would not answerD. wear clothes reflecting multi-racial features.上海市教育考试院保留版权英语2011 春第9页(共13页)74. In paragraph 6, “they would be ‘intimate’” is closest in meaning to “______”.A. they would have physical contactB. they would have in-depth talkC. they would be close friendsD. they would exchange basic information75. From the passage, we can conclude that what Zeldin does is ______.A. an attempt to promote thinking interactionB. one of the maddest activities ever conductedC. a try to liberate people from old-fashioned ideasD. an effort to give people a chance of talking freelySection CDirections:Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for76.Newholt. She is also a lecturer at the University and a writer for the monthly magazine77.users follow instructions. Young children have a tendency to swallow toothpaste, which is why they should only have a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste on their toothbrush. If this simple measure is taken, parents can be confident that children will be protected against78.Almost all medicines have an adverse effect-or even be deadly-if they are not taken as directed. So you are right-fluoride can be poisonous if it is swallowed in very large quantities. It is for the reason that fluoride supplements can only be obtained on prescription from the doctor or dentist. Please be assured that fluoride overdoses are rare -in fact, I have never heard of any fatal incidents related to fluoride poisoning.79.Scientific studies have shown that fluoride can help to prevent cavities as long as it is used correctly. If fluoride is abused, there is a risk of illness or even deaths in extremecases. If a deadly amount of fluoride is taken, immediate first-aid could save a life. A person who has swallowed a large amount of fluoride will probably start vomiting. If not, the patient should be given milk or antacid and taken to the nearest hospital for80.Taking too much fluoride while teeth are growing can lead to a condition called dental fluorosis. The most likely cause is the swallowing of fluoride toothpastes by young children. It can also be caused by inappropriate use of fluoride drop or other fluoride supplements, for example when fluoride is already is already present in drinking water.Section DDirections:Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Most people look forward to retirement as a time when they can finally take up activities that they never had the time or energy to pursue before. But some recent studies on people in their golden years are disturbing: they suggest that retirees are more likely to suffer from depression and possibly higher rates of other diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure. That’s why a new study of French workers is welcome news.Led by Hugo Westerlund, a professor of psychology at Stockholm University, the study of more than 14,000 workers found lower rates of depression and fatigue(疲劳) in people after they got tired while they were still employed.The scientists followed the employees of the French national gas and electric company for 14 years. They found in the year immediately after retirement, the volunteers reported 40% fewer depressive symptoms than they had in the year before their retirement. The researchers also found an 81% drop in reports of both mental and physical fatigue over the same time period.Clearly, said Westerlund, much of these decrease in physical and mental fatigue can be traced back to relief from the stresses of work. The decline in depressive symptoms suggests that retirement may be having a positive mental effect, too, which may have a lot to do with the generous pensions(养老金) that French workers enjoy. Most retirees in that country still benefit from about 80% of their yearly salaries.“The economic or financial situation in retirement is very important,”Westerlund says. “We don’t know if the decrease in fatigue and depressive symptoms is because of the removal of something bad while in work or the addition of something good while in retirement. But no matter the reason, if life in retirement is not comfortable, then we won’t see the improvements we did.”However, in European nations like France, governments are considering changes to pension plans, which may affect retirees’ health after they leave their jobs-with less of a上海市教育考试院保留版权英语2011 春第11页(共13页)financial safety net, workers may no longer seem so mentally and physically happy to be out of work.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)81.

Between 1886 and 1914, Canada received over two million immigrants. The majority of them were from Eastern Europe. The government welcomed these people by offering them free farmland in the West. However, Canada immigration policy was not equal for Asian immigrants. The Canadian government passed two laws to prevent Chinese immigration. In 1885, the Canadian government passed the first law to prevent Chinese immigration. The law forced every Chinese person entering Canada to pay a $50 entry fee. The government introducedthis head tax to satisfy Caucasian(高加索人) laborers who felt that Chinese immigrants were competing for their jobs. The head tax was a burden for Chinese immigrants, but it did not prevent them from coming to Canada. For many of these poor Chinese laborers, they could earn more money there than in China. They were willing to borrow the money to pay for the overseas trip and the head tax. The Canadian government raised the head tax to $100 in 1900, then to $500 in 1903. The Canadian government passed its most restrictive immigration lawin 1923. That year, the Chinese Immigration Act prevented all Chinese except officers, merchants, and students from entering Canada. TheAct was the result of pressure from anti-Asian groups. These groupsfelt that the head tax was insufficient because Chinese laborers were still coming to Canada.

know that in a recent survey by Hobart and William Smith Colleges in New York State,a majority of CEOs said that the liberal arts(文科) are essential for52critical thinking and problem-solving skills.If you thought college was for acquiring specific work skills,only37percent of the CEOs in the survey agree with you.If you plan to start your career as a secretary,be aware that this job is undergoing tremendous53.In offices where secretaries have not already been eliminated,the54role of a clerk is now unrecognizable.Most bosses55their own mails and meetings and travel plans,thanks to e-mail and the Internet,so secretaries are56taking on higher-level tasks such as drafting contracts and handling customer service problems.Those willing to expand their57should do well.If you are a woman interested in law enforcement(执法),note that some states and cities are working hard to reach58standards for female applicants.Although most small suburban police departments are deeply traditional,and

B.moderate C.fixed D.regular64.A.give out B.agree with C.wonder about D.focus onSection BDirections:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)They like using the Internet.They have lots of pocket money to spend.And they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us.Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in,and the things they want to buy-games,CDs and clothing-are easily sold on the Web.But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards.Most have to use a parent’s card.They want a facility that allows them to spend money.That may come sooner than they think:new ways to take pocket money into cyber(网络的)space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic.If successful,these products can stimulate online sales.In general,teenagers spend huge amounts:$153bn(billion)in the US last year and£20bn annually in the UK.Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school-88percent in the US,69percent in the UK. According to the Jupiter Research,one in eight of those with Internet access has bought something online-mainly CDs and books.In most cases,parents pay for these purchases with credit cards,an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children.Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street. They are more likely to ask“Why?”if you ask to spend some money online.One way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cybercash is through prepaid cards such as InternetCash in the US and Smart cards in the UK.Similar to those for pay-as-you-go mobile telephones,they are sold in amounts such as£20or$50with a concealed14-digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account.65.What does the word“They”in paragraph1refer to?A.Sellers.B.Buyers.C.Teenagers.D.Parents.66.According to the passage,which of the following statements is TRUE?A.More than half of the teenagers in the US and the UK have Internet access.B.Teenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards.C.Most teenagers in the US and the UK have bought something online.D.Teenagers found it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop.67.A new way to help teenagers shop online is to use______.A.a new machineB.special coins and notesC.prepaid cardsD.pay-as-you-go mobile phones68.What is the passage mainly about?A.Online shopping traps.B.Internet users in the US and the UK.C.New credit cards for parents.D.The arrival of cyber pocket money.(B)DONALD SLOANGates Hall University of Kansas Lawrence,KS66045 913-243-1682After May2009:46Clayton Drive St.Louis,MO63130314-726-8840Objective To work with the client(委托人)population in a social service position. Education B.A.,University of Kansas,Lawrence,KS,2009Major:Social ServicesMinor:Applied PsychologyExperience Assistant Activities Supervisor,Fairview Nursing Home,Lawrence,KS, November2006-present.Help organize and implement recreationalactivities for nursing home residents.Activities include crafts,dances,daytrips,sing-alongs,and visiting performers.A.an advertisement for enrolling new employeesB.a school report at the end of an academic yearC.a self-introduction meant to apply for a jobD.a part of a recommendation letter from a university70.According to the“Experience”section,we can infer that Donald Sloan can be_____.A.a wise leaderB.a skillful performerC.a gifted scientistD.a good social worker71.From the passage we can learn that Donald Sloan______.A.is good at singing and dancingB.is about to graduate from a universityC.has an interest in being a surgeonD.specializes in psychology(C)Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains,visited the moon,and surveyed the planets.But for all the progress,people still don’t know one another very well.That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s“feast of conversation”-events where individuals pair with persons they don’t know for three hours of guided talk designed to get the past“Where are you from?”Mr.Zeldin,an Oxford University professor,heads Oxford Muse,a10-year-old foundation based on the idea that what people need is not more information,but more inspiration and encouragement.The“feast”in London looks not at politics or events,but at how people have felt about work,relations among the sexes,hopes and fears,enemies and authority,the shape of their lives.The“menu of conversation”includes topics like“How have your priorities changed over the years?”Or,“What have you rebelled against the past?”As participants gathered,Zeldin opened with a speech:that despite instant communications in a globalized age,issues of human heart remain.Many people are lonely,or in routines that discourage knowing the depth of one another.“We are trapped in shallow conversations and the whole point now is to think,which is sometimes painful,”he says.“But thinking interaction is what separates us from other species,except maybe dogs…who dohave generations of human interactions.”The main rules of the“feast”:Don’t pair with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer. The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of young adults to seniors,in sun hats,ties and dresses,looked to see whom with for hours.But15minutes later,everyone was seated and talking,continuing full force until organizers interrupted them180minutes later.“It’s encouraging to see the world is not just a place of oppression and distance from each other,”Zeldin summed up.“What we did is not ordinary,but it can’t be madder than the world already is.”Some said they felt“liberated”to talk on sensitive topics.Thirty-something Peter,from East London,said that“it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”72.What can the“conversations”be best described as?A.Deep and one-on-one.B.Sensitive and mad.C.Instant and inspiring.D.Ordinary and encouraging.73.In a“feast of conversations”,participants______.A.pair freely with anyone they likeB.have a guided talk for a set of period of timeC.ask questions they themselves would not answerD.wear clothes reflecting multi-racial features.74.In paragraph6,“they would be‘intimate’”is closest in meaning to“______”.A.they would have physical contactB.they would have in-depth talkC.they would be close friendsD.they would exchange basic information75.From the passage,we can conclude that what Zeldin does is______.A.an attempt to promote thinking interactionB.one of the maddest activities ever conductedC.a try to liberate people from old-fashioned ideasD.an effort to give people a chance of talking freelySection CDirections:Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph.There is one extra heading which you do not need.A.Causes of overusing fluorideB.Negative effects of fluorideC.Safe use of fluorideD.The expert’s background informationE.No need to worry about fluoride poisoningF.Solutions to improper use of fluorideI have heard that fluoride can help stop dental decay,but I recently read that it is poisonous.Which of these is true?How can children use fluoride safely?76.This question is answered by Dr Marcia M.Rich who practises general dentistry in Newholt.She is also a lecturer at the University and a writer for the monthly magazine Your Dentist Cares.77.My answer to the first question is to stress that fluoride works well and is safe when users follow instructions.Young children have a tendency to swallow toothpaste,which is why they should only have a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste on their toothbrush.If this simple measure is taken,parents can be confident that children will be protected against tooth decay,and come to no harm.78.Almost all medicines have an adverse effect-or even be deadly-if they are not taken as directed.So youare right-fluoride can be poisonous if it is swallowed in very large quantities.It is for the reason that fluoride supplements can only be obtained on prescription from the doctor or dentist.Please be assured that fluoride overdoses are rare-in fact,I have never heard of any fatal incidents related to fluoride poisoning.79.Scientific studies have shown that fluoride can help to prevent cavities as long as it is used correctly.If fluoride is abused,there is a risk of illness or even deaths in extreme cases.If a deadly amount of fluoride is taken, immediate first-aid could save a life.A person who has swallowed a large amount of fluoride will probably start vomiting.If not,the patient should be given milk or antacid and taken to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment.80.Taking too much fluoride while teeth are growing can lead to a condition called dental fluorosis.The most likely cause is the swallowing of fluoride toothpastes by young children.It can also be caused by inappropriate use of fluoride drop or other fluoride supplements,for example when fluoride is already is already present in drinking water.Section DDirections:Read the passage carefully.Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Most people look forward to retirement as a time when they can finally take up activities that they never had the time or energy to pursue before.But some recent studies on people in their golden years are disturbing:they suggest that retirees are more likely to suffer from depression and possibly higher rates of other diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure.That’s why a new study of French workers is welcome news.Led by Hugo Westerlund,a professor of psychology at Stockholm University,the study of more than14,000 workers found lower rates of depression and fatigue(疲劳)in people after they got tired while they were still employed.The scientists followed the employees of the French national gas and electric company for14years.They found in the year immediately after retirement,the volunteers reported40%fewer depressive symptoms than they had in the year before their retirement.The researchers also found an81%drop in reports of both mental and physical fatigue over the same time period.Clearly,said Westerlund,much of these decrease in physical and mental fatigue can be traced back to relief from the stresses of work.The decline in depressive symptoms suggests that retirement may be having a positive mental effect,too,which may have a lot to do with the generous pensions(养老金)that French workers enjoy. Most retirees in that country still benefit from about80%of their yearly salaries.“The economic or financial situation in retirement is very important,”Westerlund says.“We don’t know if the decrease in fatigue and depressive symptoms is because of the removal of something bad while in work or the addition of something good while in retirement.But no matter the reason,if life in retirement is not comfortable, then we won’t see the improvements we did.”However,in European nations like France,governments are considering changes to pension plans,which may affect retirees’health after they leave their jobs-with less of a financial safety net,workers may no longer seem so mentally and physically happy to be out of work.(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)81.According to some recent studies,retired people may have depression and higherrates of other diseases like__________.82.Westerlund’s group found that in the year just after the retirement most retiredFrench workers felt much less tired both__________.83.What does the word“improvements”in paragraph5refer to?84.Retirement may make people happier with__________.第II卷(共45分)I.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.1.昨天晚上我们欣赏了一台精彩的演出。

Few Americans remain in one position or one place for a lifetime. We move from town to city to suburb, from high school to college in a different state, from a job in one region to a better job elsewhere, from the home where we raise our children to the home where we plan to live in retirement. With each move we are forever making new friends, who become part of our new life at that time.For many of us summer is a special time for forming new friendships. Today millions of Americans vacation abroad, and they go not only to see new sights but also with the hope of meeting new people. No one really expects a vacation trip to produce a close friend, but the beginning of a friendship is possibleThe word “friend”can be applied to a wide range ofrelationships —to someone one has known for a few weeks in a new place, to a fellow worker, to a childhood playmate, to a man or woman, to a trusted confidant (知已).(1). Many Americans move from place to place for the following reasons except( )A. going to college?B.getting a better jobC.finding a place to live in retirementD.saving money(2).

For many of us summer is a special time for forming new friendships.B.Today millions of Americans vacation abroadC.No one really expects a vacation trip to produce a close friendD.But surely the beginning of friendship is possible2. Almost every family buys at least one copy of a newspaper every day. Some people subscribe to as many as two or three different newspapers. But why do people read newspapers?Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings —battles lost and won, kings or rulers overthrown or killed — took months and even years to travel from one country to another. The news passed by word of mouth and was never accurate. Today we can read in our newspapers of important events that occur in faraway countries on the same day they happen.Apart from supplying news from all over the world, newspapers give us a lot of other useful information. There are weather reports, radio, television and film guides, book reviews, stories, and, of course, advertisements. There are all sorts ofadvertisements. The bigger ones are put in by large companies to bring attention to their products. They pay the newspapers thousands of dollars for their advertising space, but it is worth the money, for news of their products goes into almost every home in the country. For those who produce newspapers, advertisements are also important. Money earned from advertisements makes it possible for them to sell their newspapers at a low price and still make a profit.(1). The habit of reading newspapers is ( )A. widespreadB.found among a few familiesC.not popularD.uncommon(2). In the past, news was ( )A. sent by telegraphB.sent by letterC.assed from one person to anotherD.sent by telephone(3). The money spent on advertisements is ( )A. wastedB.not muchC.worthwhileD.of no use to anyone(4). Which of the following statements is not true? ( )A. Five hundred years ago news did not take a long time to reach other countries.B.Large companies put big advertisements in the newspapers to make their products known.C.The news that we need in our newspapers is up-to-date.D.Though the newspapers are sold at a low price, their owners still gain profit.(5). The phrase “subscribe to” in the second sentence means ( ).A. contribute toB.write toC.pay for receivingD.appreciate3. Do you always understand the directions on a bottle of medicine?
