AThe person who set the course of my life was a school teacher named Marjorie Hurd. When I was stepped off a ship in New York Harbor in 1949, I was a nine-year-old war refugee, who had lost his mother and was coming to live with the father he did not know. My mother, Eleni Gatzoyiannis, had been imprisoned and shot for sending my sisters and me to freedom.I was thirteen years old when I entered Chandler Junior High. Shortly after I arrived, I was told to select a hobby to pursue during “club hours.” The idea of hobbies and clubs made no sense to my immigrant ears, but I decided to follow the prettiest girl in my class. She led me into the presence of Miss Hurd, the school newspaper adviser and English teacher.A tough woman with salt-and-pepper hair and determined eyes, Miss Hurd had no patience with lazy bones. She drilled us in grammar, assigned stories for us to read and discuss, and eventually taught us how to put out a newspaper. Her introduction to the literary wealth of Greece gave me a new perspective on my war-torn homeland, making me proud of my origins. Her efforts inspired me to understand the logic and structure of the English language. Owing to her inspiration, during my next twenty-five years, I became a journalist by profession.Miss Hurd retired at the age of 62. By then, she had taught for a total of 41 years. Even after her retirement, she continually made a project of unwilling students in whom she spied a spark of potential. The students were mainly from the most troubled homes, yet she alternately bullied and charmed them with her own special brand of tough love, until the spark caught fire.Miss Hurd was the one who directed my grief and pain into writing. But for Miss Hurd, I wouldn’t have become a reporter. She was the one that sent me into journalism and indirectly caused all the good things that came after.1. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph Two most probably mean?A. Hobbies and clubs did not interest the author.B. The author turned a deaf ear to joining clubs.C. The author had no idea what hobbies and clubs were all about.D. Hobbies and clubs were inaccessible to immigrants like the author.2. Which of the following caused the author to think of his homeland differently?A. Stepping on the American soil for the first time.B. Her mother’s miserable death.C. Following the prettiest girl in his class.D. Being exposed to Greek literary works.3. It can be inferred from Paragraph Four that ___________.A. Miss Hurd’s contribution was recognized across the nation.B. Students from troubled homes preferred Miss Hurd’s teaching style.C. Miss Hurd employed a unique way to handle these students.D. The students Miss Hurd taught were all finally fired.4. The passage is mainly concerned with ___________.A. how the author became a journalist.B. the importance of inspiration in one’s life.C. factors contributing to a successful career.D. the teacher who shaped the author’s life.BSuppose you work in a big firm and find English very important for your job because you often deal with foreign businessmen. Now you are looking for a place where you can improve your English, especially your spoken English.Here are some advertisements about English language training from newspapers. You may find the information you need.5. You work from 9:00 a. m. to 4:30 p. m. every day. Which school will you choose?A. Global English Center and Modern Language School.B.

The bullet narrowly missed 20-year-old Birmingham resident Jatari Walker who told the Daily News she is scarred by the entire experience.“I can’t sleep,” she said Saturday afternoon. “And since it happened I’ve had no appetite.”Walker ordered a combination platter（大浅盘）and egg roll from the Good Friend Chinese and Seafood Restaurant on Dennison Ave. Thursday evening. After paying her $7 bill she went back to her car and discovered a fly inside. “I thought I need to take this back,” she said.The customer went back and asked for a repayment and said the owner Chun Hin Ching, 52, was unhappy with her because she announced her discovery in front of other customers. After an argument he repaid the money and Walker —who is now a former frequent customer of the business — turned and walked to the exit.That’s when Ching drew a handgun and fired a single shot over her head.“He just shot the gun at me and I ran,” she said, adding she could feel the bullet whiz past her head.Birmingham Police Department spokesman Lt. Sean Edwards told the News the owner was charged with attempted murder and was transported to Jefferson County Jail on $100,000 bail（保释金）.Police believe Ching intended to hit Walker with the bullet and missed, Edwards said. The bullet hit the top of the door frame of the take-out business.Ching did not tell police why he fired at Walker, Edwards said.Edwards said he did not recall any previous problems at the business. He said Ching did not say why he had a weapon but added it was not uncommon for stores in that neighborhood.No one was injured from the gunshot, Edwards said.Calls placed to the restaurant Saturday afternoon were not answered.9. What happened on Thursday night in Good Friend Chinese and Seafood Restaurant?A. A fire broke out but luckily no one was injured.B. The restaurant owner refused to repay the money.C.

Because she found the owner charged her too much.11. The restaurant owner fired on Walker when ______.A. she was arguing with himB. she was about to leaveC. she asked for a repaymentD. she announced her discovery12. We can learn from the passage that ______.A. this is the first time for Walker to buy food from Good Friend RestaurantB. the owner was unhappy with the complaint and refused to repay the moneyC. if someone had been hit, Ching’d have been charged with attempted murderD. it is common for a restaurant owner in that neighborhood to have a weaponDOn “Super Bowl Sunday”,millions of Americans are glued to their TVs. They are eating pizza, chicken wings and chips and cheering every move. The y’re watching the Super Bowl.Why are Americans so crazy about American football? Well, it is more exciting than other sports. One team can lose possession of the ball in a minute, which may allow their opponents to make a touchdown(触地得分). Then that team may win the game unexpectedly.The Super Bowl also entertains its audience with a great halftime show. The football field is turned into a stage. Then an impressive performance of dancing and singing with special effects occurs.Since the Super Bowl is the most-watched TV program in America, commercial airtime is also very expensive. Big money is also spent on commercials. They draw the viewers’ attention and advertise their image or products during the commercial break.After football season, the “March Mad ness” begins. The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) competitions begin with 68 men’s college basketball teams. They play until the field is reduced to the “Final Four”.The winning team becomes the national champion. The NBA (National Basketball Association) All-Star game is also held in February. The best players from all the teams play in this game.Baseball is no doubt American’s national sport. From grandpas to young kids, whole families go to ball games together. They wear their favorite team’s caps or even carry their mascot(吉祥物). Our family went to watch Wang Chien-Ming play in D.C. once. We ate hot dogs, waved flags and sang during the 7th inning(棒球的一局) stretch.If you are not a sports fan yet, come and pick a sport or a team. Go to a ball game with your family, and cheer your team on. Sports are definitely a part of American culture one should not miss.13. According to the passage, the Super Bowl is _____.A. an expensive American sportB. a well-received American football gameC. an impressive TV performanceD. a most-watched TV series14. Which of the following may be one of the reasons for the popularity of the Super Bowl?A. Its results are too exciting to meet viewers’ expectations.B.

Coming my way from across the parking lot was what society would consider a bum (流浪汉). From the looks of him, he had no car, no home, no clean clothes, and no money. There are times when you feel generous but there are other times that you just don’t want to be bothered (打扰). This was one of those “don’t want to be bothered times.”“I hope he doesn’t ask me for any money,” I thought. He didn’t. He came and sat on the seat by the bus stop but he didn’t look like he could have enough money to even ride the bus. After a few minutes he spoke, “That’s a very pretty car”. He was ragged (衣着破旧的) but he had an air of dignity (尊严) around him. I said, “thanks,” without taking a look at him.He sat there quietly for a moment. The expected begging for money never came. As the silence between us widened something inside said, “Ask him if he needs any help.” Iwas sure that he would sa y “yes”. So I asked, “Do you need any help?”He answered in three simple words that I shall never forget. The three words shook me. “Don’t we all?” he said.I was feeling successful and important, above a bum in the street, until those three words hit me. Don’t we all? I needed help. Maybe not for bus fare or a place to sleep, but I needed help. I reached in my wallet and gave him not only enough for bus fare, but enough to get a warm meal and shelter for the day. Those three little words still ring true. No matter how much you have, you need help too. However, no matter how little you have, you can give help too.1. The author walked away from the car wash to _________.A. go to workB. wash his carC. go shoppingD. meet his wife2. When the author first saw the bum, he planned to _________.A. ignore his difficultyB. give him a lessonC. offer him some helpD. make friends with him3. When the bum said “Don’t we all?”, the author felt _________.A. satisfiedB. shyC. sadD. shocked4. What is the best title for the text?A. The clever bumB. Never lose your dignityC. Don’t we all need help?D. To give or not?Suggested answers: DADCB“I’d like to be at a healthier weight,” a friend told me. “But we just don’t have the money to buy expensive diet foods and there isn’t enough money to join a gym.” Many people feel that way —that a healthy diet and exercise plan is out of reach because of their high cost. Don’t lose hope! We’ll be looking at ways to make healt hy choices without spending too much money.First you don’t need to buy the expensive pre-prepared “diet foods.” Back in the early 1970s when I started housekeeping, 90% of the food I bought was ingredients. Very fewthings were preprocessed (预处理的). Now 90% of the food you find in the store is quick food. That’s a bad thing.Quick foods like boxed “just add hamburger” meals have had the fiber (纤维) removed to make them faster to prepare. Take a look at the label (标签) on that box. It often has low numbers l isted under “fiber” because fiber takes longer to digest. If the low fiber meal is digested, the result is that your body begins to store fat. Besides, your body is short of nutrients (营养物质). You will be driven to eat more to try to make up for the low quality of the food you are eating.And then there are the chemicals the producers add to the quick meals to make them palatable. If not, the stuff would taste like cardboard and you wouldn’t enjoy it. However, these chemicals certainly aren’t good for your h ealth.What’s the answer? Buy whole ingredients and give up the expensive, low nutrition, processed foods. Do the cooking yourself and you will have control over what is in your food — and it will cost less, too.5. People who find it hard to get a healthier weight think _________.A. they had too much diet foodB. they didn’t make a detailed planC. they have no time to do exercise in gymD. they can’t afford diet food and to exercise in gym6. The author doesn’t like quick food mainly because _________.A. it contains too much fatB. it makes people eat moreC. it has low fiberD. it takes longer to digest7. The underlined word “palatable” in Paragraph 4 means _________.A. freshB. deliciousC. healthyD. poor8. The author suggests in the text that people should _________.A. control the amount of foodB. eat more processed foodsC. cook food for themselvesD. choose cheap ingredientsSuggested answers: DCBC。

ABranches hit my face, sending blood down my cheeks. Every one of my pores (毛孔) was filled with sweat, but I couldn’t stop. They were clos e behind. I could not, I would not go back. They only saw my black skin and did not know of the human soul that lived under by flesh.The sound of the dogs came closer. I hid myself in the shadows beneath the trees above me, thankful for the first time for my black skin. My bare feet bled. The moonlight threatened to give me away. Its brightness seemed to make fun of me as I ran. Even the moon was white. The whole world seemed to be made for people with a white surface. Suddenly I fell down to the forest floor. My legs begged me not to make them run. I ignored them and desperately tried to escape and run away from these evil people, the moon, and my own dark skin.It was a failed attempt. I had hardly ran ten steps when the dogs’ teeth were in my face. Te ars burned my face, tears of anger, hate, and fear. “Please!” I begged. “Please let me go!” My breath was short, and my whole body was filled with blood. I stopped for breath. “Actually we’re all the same! That’s what really matters! Please let me go.”“Let you go?” a man laughed. “How could it be? You were born to serve us.” They laughed as they marched along, pulling me by a long rope like a dog. I was exhausted after running for days and I could feel that blood was flowing down my body. At last, I fell down in the grass, covered with blood. My soul moved away from my body and I was free at last.1. According to the text, the author was probably _____.A. a slaveB. a hunterC. a thiefD. a prisoner2. To ask the men to let him go, what reason did the author give?A. He was bleeding.B. He was out of breath.C. He was also a human.D. He was afraid of dogs.3. It can be inferred from the text that _____.A. a man treated the author’s woundsB. the dogs bit one of the author’s legsC. a man set the author free out of mercyD. the author lost consciousness in the end4. What’s the best title for the text?A. A failed attempt to get freedomB. A dangerous hunting experienceC. A story of an adventure in woodsD. A struggle for survival and powerBIt’s time to study like a rock star! Many rock stars are smart enough to know that it’s cool to go to a top-rated school. Let’s check out these musicians who went to Ivy League colleges.Rivers CuomoThe lead singer and guitarist of the band, Weezer, is an Ivy League rocker, graduating from Harvard with outstanding performance. Rivers Cuomo earned his bachelor’s degree in English after 10 year on-off work at this famous university.John LegendThe Grammy Award winning singer and songwriter had scholarship offers from Harvard, Georgetown and Morehouse before attending the University of Pennsylvania, where he majored in English with an emphasis on African American literature. John Legend famously contributed to Kanye West’s album, “The College Drop out (辍学者)”. He always supports education reform and has even taken part in a public performance for dropout prevention for free.Lisa LoebIt was just a few years after she graduated from Brown University with a degree in comparative literature that singer Lisa Loeb had a hit single (畅销的单曲唱片) with her song “Stay”. The smart rocker made history with “Stay” as the only artist to ever have a number one single before being signed to a recording contract.Greg GraffinThe lead singer of the L.A. punk band, Bad Religion, earned his Ph.D. from Cornell University. He later worked at the University of California at Los Angeles as a life science professor. Greg Graffin has said, “[Evolution (进化) is] a controversial topic that I research both on an academic (学术的) leve l and in my music.”50. We can learn from the text that John Legend _____.A. won a Grammy Award at collegeB. majored in comparative literatureC. became famous for The College DropoutD. once performed to help school dropouts6. Which of the following musicians taught at a university?A. Rivers Cuomo.B. John Legend.C. Lisa Loeb.D. Greg Graffin.7. Which university did the singer of “Stay” graduate from?A. Harvard University.B. The University of Pennsylvania.C. Brown University.D. Cornell University.8. The text mainly aims to _____.A. advise readers to pursue their studiesB. advise readers to learn to enjoy rock musicC. show the importance of entering a top-rated schoolD. show the relationship between education and musicCHe has climbed a high mountain, raced the 24-hour motorcycle track in France and even, walked from Tokyo to Kyoto, a distance of 500 km. Now Evolta, Panasonic’s 7-inch Humanoid Robot is getting ready for his biggest challenge — the Ironman Triathlon (铁人三项) Championship in Hawaii.To compete in this exhausting contest, the green & white robot which is small enough to fit on a human palm, will have to swim 2.4 miles in the rough ocean, bike 112 miles across the hot Hawaiian desert and, run a full marathon distance of 26.2 miles in the painfully hot weather.Given that he is so tiny and powered by rechargeable batteries (充电电池) of Panasonic, he will be allowed some freedom in the way he competes. For one, he will be starting the race on October 23rd, 2011, three weeks following the real event and, while human competitors have at most 17 hours to complete the triathlon, Evolta will be given 7 days, during which his only “breaks” will be to recharge his batteries.The biggest difference however, will be that unlike a single human body doing all three races, there will be three different “Evolta” robot bodies competing — each built for the specific race. Evolta the swimmer will be equipped with special arms to swim forward. Evolta the biker, will be on a little two-wheeler with training wheels, while Evolta the runner, will be fixed on what looks like a wheel.In spite of all these advantages, the robot’s creator Tomotaka Takahashi believes that the race will be a huge challenge — not only will Evolta have to battle the wind and sun, but also, small road obstacles (障碍) that humans just step over. The water will be even worse thanks to the strong waves, tides and ocean winds. But if he does complete it, Evolta will add another feather in his cap and just prove the already well-known fact that Panasonic’s rechargeable Evolta batteries are indeed the “world’s longest-lasting batteries”!9. When competing in the triathlon, Evolta _____.A. has to finish the competition in 17 hoursB. will be allowed to have a break from time to timeC. will start three weeks earlier than other competitorsD. will have three specially-built bodies for the competition10. By saying “Evolta will add another feather in his cap”, the author means _____.A. Evolta will celebrate the victory with a feather capB. Evolta will become very famous and attractiveC. Evolta will be awarded with another feather capD. Evolta will have another thing to be proud of11. From the text, we can infer that Evolta will take part in the competition to _____.A. challenge human runnersB. prove the potential of robotsC. market Panasonic’s batteriesD. show today’s advanced technology12. The text is mainly about a robot _____.A. using the energy-efficient batteriesB. accomplishing a challenging triathlonC. winning human athletes for the first timeD. competing in the Ironman Triathlon ChampionshipDMen take more risks. In studies, men as a whole display less cautious behavior than women, such as driving at higher speeds and closer to other cars, not wearing seat belts, and driving while drunk more often. They even make riskier turns and take less time when parking (although they do a more accurate job, says Tom Vanderbilt, author of Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do (And What It Says About Us).BUT ... how someone drives doesn’t necessarily equal how well he drives. Men do seem to be better at certain driving tasks than women. However, this slight edge (优势) in ability doesn’t translate into better driving records. The kinds of accidents men get into are generally the result of their riskier behavior. According to one study, men are more than three times as likely to be ticketed for “aggressive driving” than women, and more than 25 percent as likely to be at fault in an accident.Perception (观念) is a powerful thing. In spite of the research, it is still difficult to determine whether men are truly innately (天生地) better drivers than women or if they’re simply more confident in their driving because they’re considered to be better, and thus show better skills. Similarly, the perception that women are weaker drivers may negatively affect their performance behind the wheel.Women are catching up ... which isn’t necessarily good news. Men may be responsible for more accidents than women, but the gap is getting smaller. Today, more women drive (and drive more) than ever before, which has the unfortunate consequence of an increase in speeding, aggressive driving, and so on.13. The text is most probably taken from _____.A. a book reviewB. a library guideC. a driving guidebookD. a newspaper report14. The author develops the first paragraph mainly by _____.A. making comparisonsB. giving examplesC. analyzing reasons and resultsD. following the order of importance15. What can we learn from the text?A. Women should be responsible for most accidents.B. Men cause accidents mainly because they are careless.C. Tom Vanderbilt believes that women can park more accurately than men.D. The author doubts whether men are born to be better drivers than women.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在题卡上将该项涂黑。

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.A while ago, I didn‘t think I had a passion (酷爱). I didn‘t know how important having a passion is to 36 until I saw a homeless man. It makes it easier to survive, knowing there is one thing to 37 – there is one thing to think of each day for motivation and comfort.One day, as my mom stopped at a red light on our way home, someone caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags 38 by the roadside. It wasn‘t the fact that he was homeless thatinterested me, for I had seen many like him before. But in some way he was 39 . This man was not sitting with a hopeless expression. He was standing waving his hands and doing a half-dance. He had an expression of pure delight. He held a radio like it was the most 40 thing he had.Seeing all this 41 me. ―Mom, why does that man have a radio even though he‘s homeless? He wasted his money on something he doesn‘t 42 . He should use his money to buy food or clothes,‖ I said, not expecting much of an answer.―Well,‖ she said, ―Sometimes food isn‘t the most important thing. Music can be food for t he soul. Food and clothes aren‘t the 43 things we need. People need happiness to stay alive, too.‖I wasn‘t expecting such a profound response. That man must have cared enough about 44 to buy a radio instead of food or clothes. Maybe my mom was right. If one lives in sadness, there‘s nothing to keep one 45 from day to day. That‘s how essential a passion is.Since those few moments of seeing that 46 , I‘ve never gone a day without thinking of what‘s truly important. A home, a meal, a pie ce of clothing: those are only parts of the picture. What‘s often forgotten is that we all need a 47 , a light in a dark day. We all need a passion.36. A. success B. competition C. knowledge D. existence37. A. rely on B. pick up C. give up D. keep from38. A. running B. lying C. standing D. waiting39. A. stupid B. terrible C. different D. familiar40.

A. guide B. lesson C. joy D. changeSection C (12 marks)Directions: Complete the following passage by filling in each blank with one word that bestfits the context.Have you ever had a troubling problem that has left you wondering where to turn for help? Eve Hobsbawm is 48 life advisor. She offers advice to people struggling with all kinds of dilemmas, from relationship difficulties 49 what to cook for dinner. She does this through a website .There's nothing unusual about the girl, except for the fact 50 Eve is only eight years old. She charges 10p (1 yuan) 51 advice on little everyday worries and £1 (10 yuan) for tough problems.52 , Eve can't always help. A note on the site states she can‘t answer questions 53 ―Does space ever end?‖ and she won‘t solve ―school work-related problems‖. But since setting up her company in December, she has been so overburdened with messages that 54 has had to take a step back. ―There has been a lot of sudden interest in my site, 55 is nice,‖ she says, ―but as a student, I need to do my homework too, so I won‘t be solving any more problems for a while.‖Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension (30 marks)Directions: 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.ACountless people long to make a difference this holiday season, yet they don‘t realize that opportunities to make a difference are everywhere .Here are some ideas to get you started. Organize a blank driveIt is cold outside, but imagine how thousands of homeless people may feel without a home of their own, or even a blanket to keep them from the cold. Organize a blank drive for your local homeless, and ask around for donations!Practice random acts of kindnessI‘ll never forget the time when I went to pay for my Dr. Pepper, but the sever resisted, saying my bill was paid by an anonymous(匿名的) guest. It‘s this random act of kindness that restores my faith in humanity. Bless someone by paying for their drink at Starbucks, or praising them! If you live somewhere where it snows, shovel your neighbour‘s snow out of their driveway for them!Whether it is as simple as praise or as complex as paying the bill, you‘ll never know how far your impact will reach.Say thank youJust a simple thank-you can make somebody‘s day, especially if they feel like their work is never noticed. Cultivate（培养）a smile on their face by being sincere and grateful for all that they do.Use your talents to help the communityThe best way to show your appreciation for people is by using the talents and skills you have to bless others. For me, I love to coordinate（协调）events and write , and so my way of reaching out to the community is through writing articles and creating awareness about problems we face today. If you can bake, make some delicious cookies for people to enjoy! If you can knit, put your talents to use by making clothes for children in foster care. Any talent can be used to help the community in meaningful ways.Wish you a happy, healthy and helpful holiday season.56. If you join a blank drive, you can _________A. keep yourself from the coldB. bring a blanket to go on a tripC. buy a home for homeless peopleD. collect donations for the homeless people57.

Enjoy Your Holiday SeasonD. Make a Difference in Your Holiday SeasonBThe small coastal town of Broome, in northwest Australia, is a remote village in the vastcountryside.There are no traffic jams and hardly any roads There is only the massive Australian wild land , where. some houses are 500 miles apart and some driveways are 50 miles long.There seem to be only two main sources of entertainment out here; the sunset at the beach and Sun pictures.Sun Pictures is a very different movie theater．The seats are park benches and deck chairs, but you're also welcome to sit on the grass．Sun Pictures was built in 1916 on the other side of the globe from Hollywood．All the big films were shipped here and the lonely country was amazed．Broome resident Pearl Hamaguchi has never traveled far from home．But in the Sun Pictures chairs．under the deep blue night sky, she has been almost everywhere．"And we came back excited about Gregory Peck," she recalled．Sun Pictures is one of the few places left in the world where you can see two sets of stars at the same time—one set in the sky, the other in the film．Each night, dozens of people from around the world line up at the old wooden stand, with no computer in sight, and buy their tickets to the latest films．Sun Pictures is also a museum, exhibiting projectors（放映机）that date back to the silent films, a portrait gallery of the famous people who never knew about this place-even though they came here all the time．Every once in a while, I'm told, you might find a non-ticket holder in your seat．That's why it's always a good idea to shake out your chair to make sure there are no spiders or scorpions．"We've only had a couple of scorpion incidents but no one's been stung yet," said Aaron Mestemaker, a tourist visiting from Michigan．Sun Pictures is a holy hall of movie history and a reminder that air conditioning and carpet are no match for grass and fresh air—even when the lizards steal the scene．61．The first two paragraphs want to show that_____．A．living in Broome is expensive B．the life in Broome is boringC．few people like to live in Broome D．Broome is simple but vast62．Sun Pictures is different from other theaters becauseA．it is the most historical outdoor theater in the worldB．the audience can either sit on chairs or on the grassC．it was built by some constructor from HollywoodD．all the films were imported here from Hollywood63．From the passage we can learn that Gregory Peck is most probably the name of A．a place B．a film C．a movie star D．a country fellow 64．The underlined words―non-ticket holder" refers to .A．an insect which comes to the theater by incidentB．a country fellow who does not buy the ticketC．an elderly person who enjoys free-ticket privilegeD．a foreigner who doesn't know a ticket is necessary65．It can be inferred that the tourists in Broome are most attracted by .A．its peacefulness B．its beautiful sunsetC．the Sun Pictures D．the gallery of movie starsCA black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light cannot get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying.Because no light can get out, people can‘t see black holes. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars that are very close to black holes act differently from other ones.Black holes can be big or small. Scientists think the smallest black holes are as small as just one atom. These black holes are very tiny but have the mass of a large mountain. Mass is the amount of matter, or ―staff‖, in an object.Another kind of black hole is called ―stellar‖(星球黑洞). Its mass can be up to 20 times more than the mass of the sun. There may be many stellar mass black holes in Earth‘s galaxy. Earth‘s galaxy is called the Milky Way.The largest black holes are called ―supermassive‖(超大质量黑洞). These black holes have masses that are more than one million suns together. Scientists have found proof that every large galaxy contains a supermassive black hole at its center. The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy has a mass equal to about four million suns and would fit inside a verylarge ball that could hold a few million Earths.Scientists think the smallest black holes formed when the universe began. Stellar black holes are made when the center of a very big star falls in upon itself, or falls apart. When this happens, it exploded part of the star into space. Scientists think supermassive black holes were made at the same time as the galaxy they are in.A black hole can not be seen because strong gravity pulls all of the light into the middle of the black hole. But scientists can see how the strong gravity affects the stars and gas around the black hole. Scientists can study stars to find out if they are flying around, or orbiting a black hole. When a black hole and a star are close together, high-energy light is made. This kind of light cannot be seen with human eyes. Scientists use satellites and telescopes in space to see the high-energy light.66. The gravity of a black hole may become so strong that light cannot get out when_.A. the star is going to dieB. special tools are used on itC. other stars come close to itD. it is seen from the space telescopes67. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. A black hole can be very tiny but extremely heavy.B. The gravity of a black hole holds all light in its center.C. Scientists observe high-energy light through their own eyes.D. Some small black holes came into being as early as the universe.68. Which can be inferred from the passage?A. Every galaxy must have a black hole.B. A galaxy is the center of the universe.C. A galaxy consists of a large group of stars and planets.D. Earth‘s galaxy is called the Milky Way.69. What does the last sentence in Paragraph 5 suggest?A. Neither the sun nor the earth is as heavy as a black hole.B. There is only one supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.C. The supermassive black hole had existed before the Milky Way was formed.D. There is a reason why the large black holes are called ―supermassive‖.70. The last two paragraph mainly focus on the question of _________.A. what a black hole isB. how black holes formC. how big black holes areD. how scientists know about black holesPart IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.The history of Mother‘s Day is pretty interesting. An early form of the idea may have originated in the 17th century England as ―Mothering Sunday‖, on w hich the servants, who generally lived with their employers, were encouraged to return home and honor their mothers. A special cake, called the mothering cake, was often brought along to provide a festive touch.Mother‘s Day, first suggested in 1872, is linked to the anti-war efforts of Julia Ward Howe. She hoped a day set aside to honour mothers would be a way to promote peace. In 1907 a woman by the name of Anna Jarvis took Howe‘s idea a step further and began a campaign for a nationally recognized Moth er‘s Day.After considerable effort, Anna Jarvis finally saw her dream realized. On May 9, 1914, President Woodrow Wilson made the official proclamation(宣布) that Mother‘s Day would be an annual holiday on the second Sunday in May. And so it is to this day.For those of us whose lives have been shaped and nurtured by loving moms, the day is a wonderful opportunity to say thank you. Unfortunately not ever yone‘s experience of family life evokes （唤起）gratitude. In the complicated maze of human existence, not all mother/child relationships are positive. Evoking the image of Mom for some can be an invitation down a painful memory lane.There is also the reality that not all mothering figures are actually mothers. Hundreds of thousands of children have been raised by foster moms （养母）who never had children of their own, but who gave maternal （母亲般的）love to children that needed them. Aunts and older sisters have filled this role as well.All I am saying is that it is complicated. We might wish that every family had an ideal balance of motherly and fatherly love, but that is simply not the case. There are many different ways thatmothering happens. We may as well celebrate the ups and downs of our common life. For those whose childhood evokes praise and thanksgiving, let us give thanks. But for those whose childhood was marked by fear and loss, then let us offer healing.In our world, there‘s no reason why all experiences of family life, good and bad, can‘t be included.Title: 71._____________Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to theinformation given in the passage.A Journey of DiscoveryThe Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain is one of the most famous American novels. Published in 1884, it was one of the first novels in the USA written in common, everyday language. For example, using non-sta ndard English, Twain wrote, ‗I haven‘t got any money,‘ to mean ‗I do not have any money‘. In this way, Twain made his characters very true to life.The story is told by Huckleberry Finn, called Huck for short, who runs away to escape his abusive father. At first, Huck goes to a small island in the middle of the Mississippi River. There, he finds Jim, a black slave who has run away to escape slavery. The two of them stay on the island for a few weeks and become friends, but they must leave because Huck learns that people are looking for Jim. They decide to travel on a raft on the Mississippi River to reach the Ohio River, which will take them north to a state that does not allow slavery.During their journey, Huck and Jim visit many places along the river and meet many different people. Unfortunately, most of the people they meet are not good. For instance, Huck and Jim meet a family, the Grangerfords, who have been fighting with another family, the Shepherdsons, for so many years that nobody remembers how the fight began. While Huck stays with the Grangerfords, the fighting starts again, and several members of both families are killed. Later, Huck and Jim meet the King and the Duke, two men who take control of their raft and make money by tricking people. During the confusion following one of these tricks, Huck and Jim escape with their raft.Although the people Huck and Jim meet are bad, they are also funny. Mark Twain used humor to show readers the problems of American society in the 1800s. More importantly, despite all of the bad things that happen to Huck and Jim, the novel has a happy ending for both of them. Jim gets his freedom because his owner has died and set him free in her will, and Huck learns that his father has died, so he is also safe.The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is an adventurous and humorous story, and it teaches modern readers a lot about American society in the 1800s.81. How was The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn different from earlier novels? (No more than9 words) (2 marks)82. What kind of people do Huck and Jim meet? (No more than 16 words) (3 marks)83. What happens to Huck and Jim in the end? (No more than 8 words)(2 marks)84. What's the main idea of the passage?

He was going a bit too fast in his shiny, black, 12 cylinder Jaguar XKE, which was only two months old.He was watching for kids rushing out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no child came out, but a brick sailed out and-WHUMP!-it hit the Jag’s shiny black side door! SCREECH... !!!! Immediately Josh stopped the car, jumped out, seized the kid and pushed him up against a parked car. He shouted at the kid, “What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing?!”Building up a head of steam, he went on.“That’s my new Jag. That brick you threw is gonna cost you a lot of money. Why did you throw it?”“Please, mister, please... I’m sorry! I didn’t know what else to do!”begged the youngster. “I threw the brick because no one else would stop!”Tears were streaming down the boy’s face as he pointed around the parked car.“It’s my brother, mister,”he said.“He rolled of the curb （路沿）and fell out of his wheelchair and I can’t lift him up.”Sobbing, the boy asked the businessman, “Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He’s hurt and he’s too heavy for me.”Moved beyond words, the young businessman tried hard to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. Straining, he lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapers and cuts, checking to see that everything was going to be OK. He then watched the younger brother push him down the sidewalk toward their home.It was a long walk back to the black, shining, 12 cylinder Jaguar XKE — a long and slow walk. Josh never did fix the side door of his Jaguar. He kept the dent （凹痕）to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at him to get his attention. Feel forthe bricks of life coming at you.40．The boy threw a brick at the businessman’s car because ________.A. the businessman drove at a high speedB. he envied the brand-new car very muchC. he wanted to ask for some moneyD. he wanted to get help from the driver 41．Which of the following is the right order of the story?a．The younger brother threw a brick at Josh’s car.b．The elder brother fell out of his wheelchair.c．The younger brother begged Josh for help.d．Josh lifted the elder brother back into his wheelchair.e．Josh shouted at the younger brother.A. b, a, e, c, dB. a, c, d, b, eC. b, a, c, e, dD. a, c, b, e, d42．What can we learn from the passage?A.

AOn August 16, 1977, Elvis Presley saved me.The previous afternoon, I played with my six-year-old peers in Heather Peters‟ backyard. I was enjoying my cake, when Heather asked me where my sleeping bag was. Only then did I know this party was a sleepover. The word “sleep-over” to a six-year-old bed-wetter is like what “cancer” means to an adult. But what if I told them I was a bed-wetter? At least with cancer, people gather at your bedside instead of running from it.I thought of a way to escape. I would explain that I needed my mother's permission to spend the nights. But as I called my Mom, Heather stood beside me to listen. She granted permission! Then I would be sleeping in the same living room as the other girls. I didn't bring my own pajamas(睡衣)，so Mrs. Peters offered me Heather's pajamas.As the other girls drifted into their sweet dreams, I tried to stay awake. “Do I need to go again? I'll stay up to go one more time.. .”.Of course , I finally fell asleep.The next morning , I was the first to wake up. I was warm! I lay in panic for what seemed like hours before the other girls started to wake up. I did the only thing I could do — I pretended that the bed-wetting didn't happen. I got up, took off Heather's pajamas and changed into my clothes like the other girls.Mrs. Peters walked into the room, and before she could say anything, she stepped right onto the pile of my wet pajamas. My heart stopped as I watched her face burn red. “WHO DID THIS?” She screamed, with a look so frightening. Should I answer? And that was when it happened — Mr. Peters came in and grabbed his wife , ……Elvis Presley died!”The news of the King's death overtook Mrs. Peters, and I ,was spared. I got home without the other girls knowing what had happened.1. The author had to spend the night at Peters' because ________.A. she enjoyed her cake thereB. the famous singer Elvis Presley died that nightC. her mother allowed her to do soD. It was a routine of the party2. Mrs. Peters got angry because ________.A. she found the wet pajamasB. Elvis Presley passed awayC. her husband was rude to herD. all the girls slept at her house3. From the story, we know Mrs. Peters was ________.A. a bad-tempered womanB. a fan of Elvis PresleyC. a woman for perfectionD. a woman who hated to wash pajamas4. The passage is mainly about ________.A. an embarrassing childhood incidentB. a fan-purchasing experienceC. the shocking death of a famous singerD. an unfriendly hostessBBEIJING —China's education authority will tighten the widely criticized policy of “extra credits” for the national college entrance examination to ensure a fairer chance for all exam-takers.Under the policy, high school students who win awards in national Olympic competitions could get ……extra credits‟, up to 20 points for the national college entrance exam. Students with talent in sports and students who are from ethnic groups can also benefit from this policy. The extra credits have increased these students' chances of being admitted by famous universities. Some parents were found to have helped their children fabricate(伪造)award experiences or falsify qualifications to get extra credits.“It has harmed education equality，” the ministry said.Xiong Bingqi, vice-chief of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, said the policy is designed to help students who have special talents but may be weak in academic performance to have a chance to receive higher education. It will still be needed but it is time to make the rules fairer," he said.The ministry said it will reduce the range of competitions whose winners can get extra credits, and limit the winners, privileges.The new policy will apply to students who begin high school in 2011, it said.Chen Lei, a mother of a 10-year-old girl, said she welcomed the ministry's policy adjustment as she does not want her daughter to become an Olympic competition geek.But not all the Chinese parents welcomed the new policy. “It is like a thunderbolt for me. My 13-year-old son has spent so much time studying Olympic math, and participated in so many technological competitions during vacations. It is useless now,” said Dong Wen, a 43-year-old mother.A student said, “Many students have changed the current study plan, and they can abandon the competition. I will be interested in learning the courses which can improve my abilities.”Yuan Guiren, minister of education, told China Daily that the reform is an attempt to consider the overall quality of an applicant. “But the country will not stop the national college entrance examination as it is still the most objective way to evaluate talent in China,” he said.5. It can be inferred from the passage that_____.A. high school students with talent in sports are weak in academic performanceB. students who win awards in Olympic competitions can't get extra credits in 2011C. the number of competitions whose winners can be awarded extra credits will be smallerD. he extra credits have reduced students' chances of being admitted by famous colleges6. What does the underlined word “geek” probably mean?A. a winnerB. a smart learnerC. a competitorD. a dull student7. Which person in the passage was strongly against the new policy?A. Xiong BingqiB. Chen LeiC. Dong WenD. Yuan Guiren8. What might be the best title for the text?A. “Extra credits” policy in China to be adjustedB. Promotion of national OlympiccompetitionsC. Advice on the national college entrance examD. Chinese government to push education reformCNew York----Michelle Obama made a daring decision to return to the same designer who created her Inaugural (就职）Ball dress four years ago -- and the risk paid off.The First Lady looked extremely attractive in a thin, sweeping, and ruby-colored dress by designer Jason Wu. She teamed the dramatic dress with heels by Jimmy Choo and a diamond ring by Kimberly McDonald.She surprised the fashion establishment by returning to a Wu design which had been the custom made for her.Four years ago at her first Inauguration Ball, Michelle shimmered（熠熠生辉）in an off-white, one-shouldered floor-length dress by the designer.Wu, who was 26 at the time and had only been working in fashion for three years, saw his career take off after the First Lady's surprise decision to wear one of his dresses.He said at the time that he was unaware she had chosen the dress and had been watching at home on his couch and eating pizza when she appeared.After her 2013 decision, Wu told Women's Wear Daily: “Mrs Obama likes to keep her secrets. She fooled me again.”Wu released a women's clothing and accessories（装饰品）collection at Target last year and continues to be popular with the First Lady for official engagements.The sleeveless, cross-halter neck dress with low-cut back flattered（突出）49-year-old Michelle's arms and neat waist.It had been created especially for her by Wu and was a departure from the dark and plain colour tone she stuck to at earlier inauguration events.Mrs Obama's new hairstyle -- she had bangs（美发沙龙）cut on her birthday last week had been loosely tousled（蓬松的）for the special night.Vice-President Joe Biden's wife Jill also looked attractive in a blue silk dress by Vera Wang at the Inauguration Ball.9. What does the passage mainly talk about？A. Designer Wu‟s great worksB. Mrs. Obama‟s decision to return to her former fashiondesigner C. The First Lady‟s secrets. D. Wu, a great designer.10. Michelle Obama‟s brave decision proved to be a_________.A. riskB. dangerC. SurpriseD. success11. According to the passage, which of the following is correct?A. Mrs Obama‟s inaugural dresses were made by the same designer.B. Joe Biden‟s wife Jill also had her dress created by Wu.C. The colour tone at Michelle‟s earlier inaugural events was not satisfactory.D. Mrs Obama had straight forehead hair as her new hairstyle for the special night.12. Which of the following best describes Jason Wu?A. Daring and gifted.B. Unusual and cautious.C. Careful and brave.D. Talented and lucky.DWhen you travel in other countries, you'll have to get yourself well prepared to ensure your safety and handle emergencies.Before you leave, you'd better:1. Take out medical insurance policy and learn what the plan covers and whether departure or return to the hometown is covered. Figure out payment choices, such as whether you have to speak directly with the insurance company, before or after treatment, whether you have to pay first and get compensation later.2. Keep up to date on all required vaccinations (接种疫苗) .3. Learn about the city or area where you are going to travel. Know how to say street names and landmarks in the local language. Figure out unique climate issues such as altitude, seasonal changes, potentially risky animals and insects.4. Visit some local hospitals and write down addresses in the local language along with emergency entrance locations; do the same for dental/pediatric (小儿科的) services. Get first aid equipment with necessary medications. Take enough prescribed medication from the home country.5. Carry a card or note written in both English and the local language listing your emergency contact numbers, name, basic medical information such as blood type and allergies (过敏) .6. Ensure a reliable means of communication is available and carry an extra phone battery and a charger. Ensure that housemaids, drivers, office assistants, those who work or travel know how to call for medical assistance since they may be the only ones available in an emergency.7. Make sure to bring all documents and visas along with you. Plan your journey carefully and carry copies of documents (ID, insurance policy records, medical records) and keep in a place where someone else could access them in an emergency.13. In case you come across an emergency, you should _________.A. carry a card or note which is written in the local language onlyB. make sure your means of communication is available and reliableC. buy enough prescribed medication from the foreign countryD. buy a guide book which includes basic emergency instructions14.

The best title for the text is _________.A. How to Prepare for a Safe TravelB. Emergency Help at Home and AbroadC. How to Know the Place You Will VisitD. Keep Yourself Healthy When Traveling第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）A new report says plastics are responsible for $13 billion in damage to the oceans and the undersea environment. The findings were announced recently at a United Nations conference．16 Plastic thrown away carelessly makes its way into rivers and other waterways. 17 After awhile, it collects in the sea. And plastic never goes away. Plastic is not biodegradable—destroyed by bacteria or natural processes. Instead, it just breaks up into smaller pieces over time. The oceans contain a lot of chemicals and other pollutants. 18 That means harmful material may get into our food supply.19 Human beings cause pollution and they can take steps to stop it. They can use fewer single use product containers and throw plastics away correctly. Plastic recycling programs also works—where old bottles and other plastics are collected, broken down and used to make new products. We could reuse bottles in our households many times if we wish to, rather than end it after the first use. We could, when we get rid of that plastic, recycle it and reuse it, which replaces the need for raw materials.The report also calls on companies to improve methods for using plastics. 20 And it calls for information about the way plastic is thrown out or removed from use. By putting a new value on plastic, industry has a special reason to clean up the environment.But all of the companies must join to deal with the problem.A. The plastic eventually reaches coastal areas and ocean waters.B. But people can make a big difference.C. Plastics should be gathered together and reused.D. Then, fish may eat the plastics.E. It is convenient to use plastic bags in everyday life.F. It asks for them to better measure and direct plastic use.G. The report tells about harm to sea life and what might be done to improve the situation.第二部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

One day a woman came into the store and bought some things. They added up to two dollars and six and a quarter cents.The bill was paid, and the woman was entirely satisfied. But the young storekeeper, not feelingquite sure as to the accuracy of his calculations, added up the things again. To his surprise he found thatit should have been but two dollars.“ I’ve made her pay six and a quarter cents more, ”said Abe, disturbed.It was an unimportant thing, and many clerks would have forgotten it, but Abe was too conscientiousfor that.“ The money must be paid back, ”he decided.At night, he closed the store, and walked to the home of his customer. He explained the matter, paidover the six and a quarter cents, and returned satisfied.oman entered the store and asked for half a Here is another story of young Lincoln’s strict honesty. A wpound of tea. The young clerk weighed it out. This was the last sale of the day.The next morning, when beginning his duties, Abe discovered a four-ounce weight on the scales. It flashed upon him at once that he had used this in the sale of the previous night, and so, of course, given his customers short weight. I am afraid that there are many country merchants who would not have been much worried by this discovery. But Abe weighed out the balance of the half pound, shut up the store, and carriedit to the defrauded customer. I think my young readers will begin to see that the name so often given, in laterA man who begins by strict honesty in times to President Lincoln, of “Honest Old Abe, ”was well deserved.his youth is not likely to change as he grows older, and mercantile honesty is some guarantee of political honesty.21.

Departure time.CCotton farmers in some Indian villages are busily buying Coca-Cola and Pepsi, believing that thesugar in the fizzy(有泡沫的) drinks kills pests.Farmers say scientists advised them to mix pesticides with a sugary juice to control pests, and theyfound the mixture cheaper and more effective than pure chemicals—although soft drink makers andscientists dismissed the remarks. N. Hamunayya, who has become a famous person in his village in the southeastern state of Andhra Pradesh, said his crop survived an attack of pests which had resisted other pesticides. “We found that all the colas had uniform effect on pests. The pests became dead and fell to thed : they were cheaper, sticky, fizzy, andground, ”he said. He said the drinks had all the elements they needeattracted ants, which ate the young of the pests. But Thinupathi Reddy, assistant director of the RegionalAgri-Research Station, Guntur, says tests had proved such results wrong. “We conducted some cotton crop at our research station. There was no obvious productivity or destruction of pests,this practice. But their Statements from Pepsi and Coca-Cola said there was “ no scientific basis” fordealers are enjoying increasing sales. Mantan Wall, who sells soft drinks in 17 villages in the region, saidFor the 10 days between August and September I had successfulsales rose up, thanks to the farmers. “ business. Instead of just 30 cases( each containing a dozen one-litre bottles) of cola, I started selling almost残留) in the200 cases, ”he said. “ We expected the sales to drop after the news over pesticide residues(cola drinks. Now I have to keep extra supply for the cotton farmers, ”he said.In February, an Indian environment group made a report saying drinks made by Coca-Cola and Pepsicontained pesticides and called for tougher safety standards. The U. S firms strongly rejected the findings ofthe New Delhi-based Centre for Science and Environment and said their products were safe.28. The writer’ s purpose of writing this passage is to .A. tell an interesting incidentB. warn people that some drinks might be dangerous to healthC. suggest using Coca-Cola to kill pests.D. announce a new discovery of Coca-Cola29. The drink makers would not accept the fact that their drinks could kill pests because .A. they thought it went against scienceB. t hey believed that the farmers didn’t tell the truthC. they might fear that it could bring harm to their businessD. they insisted that no poison was left in their products30. The underlined part in Para. 3 “ this practice” probably refers to .A. testing the mixtureB. selling more drinks in IndiaC. mixing the drinks with the pesticideD. attracting ants to eat the young pests31. The drinks can kill pests because .A. there is some pesticide left in themB. they are sticky and fizzyC. they have elements that kill pestsD. they made the pesticide more effectiveDCertainly, a well-rounded education is the foundation from which all of us spring forth. I am grateful tothe many incredible teachers who have inspired me to do greater things, and have fired my enthusiasm foreverlasting learning!I have also been honored to have the most amazing teachers in all of my children’ s live extraordinary people who not only teach our children, but love them, challenge them, and provide an environment where a child learns how to learn.But, sometimes I wonder if the outline of our educational plan is lacking something. I watched themovie Easy A with my older daughter. The main character’ s parents were loving, supportive, and built g confidence in their daughter and developed her ability to handle her own problems.There was a scene where the mother was speaking to the younger child and he announced that hehing has spell check thesereceived an “ A” on his spelling test. She replied, “ That’s great, honey, but everytbut TRUE!I don’t mean that we shouldn’t teach our children how to spell, but maybe days. ”It was funny —some of our time should be spent educating them about the dangers of posting things on Facebook.free Maybe we might want to spend time showing them how real life works—the credit card isn’tmoney— you will have to pay it back at sometime. Oh, and get this—they charge you for borrowing thatmoney. Perhaps, we should spend some time on interpersonal relationships. I worry that our kids do notknow how to relate to one another.Choosing a career is a daunting task. My daughter is in her second year in college and has changed herreemajor twice. It’s not that she didn’t know what she wanted to do. What she “ wanted to do she chose did not match.I have learned many college students do not know what they want to do because they havenit looks like in the real world. Being a journalist in the real world looks very different from writing stories.Maybe if we spent some time exposing them to real life experience— maybe two or three courses in areasof interest in high school that give them a “ feel’for what that particular field would look like, they m better prepared. I do not know the solution, but it seems that it should at least be a topic of discussion.32. Why does the author mention the movie Easy A?A. To prove the importance of book learning.B. To show the parents’ ignorance of spelling.。

Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment.Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.26. The underlined word “average” in Paragraph 1 means ______.A. healthyB. lazyC. ordinaryD. poor27. The reason why housewives are not as healthy as career women is that ______.A. housewives are poorer than career womenB. housewives have more children than career womenC. housewives have less chance to communicate with othersD. housewives eat less food than career women28. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?A. Busy people have nothing to do at home.B. A satisfying job helps to keep one healthy.C. There is no friendship and warmth at home.D. High achievers don’t care about their families.29. We can infer from the passage that those who do not work _____.A. are likely to live a shorter lifeB. will lose everything at homeC. can live as long as those who workD. have more time to make new friends30. The best title for this passage may be _____.A. People Should Find a JobB. Working Hard Is Good for HealthC. People Should Make More Friends by WorkD. The Loss of Work Means the Loss of EverythingBWe should also know that “greed” is little related to the environmental crisis. The two main factors are population pressures, especially the pressures of large city population, and the desire to bring a satisfactory living with the lowest possible cost to the largest number of people.The environmental crisis is the result of success in cutting down the death rate of babies, which has given us the population explosion, success in increasing farm output sufficiently to prevent mass famine(饥荒), success in getting people out of the tenements(租房) of the 19th century city and into the ownership of single family home in the suburb，which has given us urban traffic jams. The environmental crisis, in other words, is the result of doing too much of the right sort of thing at large.To overcome the problems that success always creates, one must build on it. But where to start? Cleaning up the environment requires determined, sustained(持续的) efforts with clear targets and deadlines it needed, above all, concentration of effort. Up to now we have tried to do a little bit of everything, what we ought to do first is to draft a list of priorities(优先解决的问题).31. This passage makes people believe that we have the desire to __________.A. live in comfortable family life-styleB. set disputes peacefullyC. fight cancer and heart disease with energetic researchD. have greater government invo lvement in people’s daily life32. According to this passage, one early step in any effort to improve the environment would be ________.A. return to expensive use of natural fertilizersB. ban the use of automobiles in and around citiesC. study successful effort in other countriesD. set up a timetable for collective actions33. The passage indicates that the conditions that led to overcrowded roads also brought about ________.A. more attractive living conditions for many peopleB. a healthy younger generationC. greater job opportunitiesD. the population explosion34. It could logically be assumed that the author of the passage would support laws to__________.A. ban the use of all fertilizersB. prevent the use of automobiles in the citiesC. build traditional power plants immediatelyD, organize an agency to work together to deal with environmental problems35. The phrase “build on” in the last paragraph most probably means “________”.A. give upB. rely onC. get rid ofD. research intoCCan you imagine living without cars, computers or telephones? Some people in the rain forest and mountains of Venezuela and Brazil do just that. One tribe (部落), the Yanomami, has lived the same way for thousands of years. They only have numbers for one, two and more than two, and they have never invented the wheel. But they have also been called some of "the last free people on earth. "In the late 1920s, researchers found a tribe of people untouched by modern society. This was the first reported meeting with the Yanomami, who were living deep within the South American jungle.Scientists agree that their location deep in the forest helped their culture unchanged. Until recently, most Yanomami still lived in isolated regions. Everything they needed came from the rain forest. They hunted, fished and farmed the land.
