He spent all his free time in one of his four glass-houses and grew flowers of every color, with long and difficult names, for competitions (比赛). He tried to grow a rose of a new color to win the silver cup (银杯) for the Rose of the Y ear. Mr. Flowers' glass-houses were very near to a middle school. Boys of around thirteen of age were often tempted (引诱) to throw a stone or two at one of Mr. Flowers' glass-houses. So Mr. Flowers did his best to be in or near his glass-houses at the beginning and end of the school day.But it was not always possible to be on watch at those times. Mr. Flowers had tried in many ways to protect his glass, but nothing that he had done had been useful. He had been to school to report to the headmaster; but this had not done any good. He had tried to drive away the boys that threw stones into his garden; but the boys could run faster than he could, and they laughed at him from far away. He had even picked up all the stones that he could find around his garden, so that the boys would have nothing to throw; but they soon found others.At last Mr. Flowers had a good idea. He put up a large notice (布告) made of good, strongwood, some meters away from the glass-houses. On it he had written the words: DO NOT THROW STONES A T THIS NOTICE. After this, Mr. Flowers had no further trouble; the boys were much more tempted to throw stones at the notice than at the glass-houses.46.It was Mr. Flowers' hope to ________.A.build glass-houses in his free timeB.grow the Rose of the Y ear in a silver cupC.win a silver cup for growing a rose of a new colorD.grow a rose with the longest name47.Boys were often tempted to ________.A.throw stones at Mr. Flowers' glass-houseB.throw stones at Mr. Flowers from their schoolC.be in or near by Mr. Flowers' glass-housesD.play with Mr. Flowers near his glass-houses48.Mr. Flowers stayed in or near by his glass-houses _______.A.at times when school-boys were walking near themB.all the school day when there were no boys aboutC.where he could not be seen by the boys passingD.in his free time at the beginning and end of the school day49.Mr. Flowers had tried to ______ to protect his glass.A. be on watch in his free timeB. ask the headmaster for helpC. pick up all the stones around his gardenD. do all the above50.Mr. Flowers' good idea was to ______A.write some words on the glassB.put up a large notice to cover his glass-housesC.give the boys something else to throw stones atD.send for policemenIII. 英译汉(共5小题,每小题4分,共20分)51. 他不可能在阅览室。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1I strongly believe that understanding is more important than love, especially when it comes to parenting and intimate relationships. As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful reality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to b etter understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper—and healthier— our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that________.A. the author complains about her parents ‘being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. people divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too much.B. Because it is quite difficult to understand the others.C. Because we believe we are always right.D. Because the others have done something wrong.63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimaterelationships.B. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concerned.C. Understanding is more important than love to some degree.D. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship.64. If we are to understand our partners, we should ________firstly .A. have willingness to do soB. have love for themC. get into connection with themD. care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to________ .A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage 2Finally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning…is exhaustive and time consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving. In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “this is just exactly what I wanted!” Well, as a matter of fact, most people would take their “always wanted” gi fts back to the store to exchange for something they reallywanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift package so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)________.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. Must be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ________ for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC.abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that ________.A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giver.B. Wrap the gift carefully.C. Express the appreciation for the gift you receive.D. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping.70. The author’s attitude towards gift giving is________ .A. indifferentB. protestingC.objectiveD. supportivePassage 3They already guide blind and disabled people;now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆). The duti es of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks. These could include delivering a bite proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or waking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s, but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship. People light up when they see animals. They don’t need to communicate ver bally but they can still interact. You can have a speechless bond.The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.71. As is mentioned in the passage, the guide dogs will do the following except for________.A. helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB. reminding the owner to take medicineC. communicating with the owner in a non verbal wayD. helping the owner recover from the illness72. Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A. The students who developed the idea.B. The owners of the dogs.C. The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.73. What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A. They would like to stay with other people.B. They can maintain routine.C. They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life.D. They would like to talk in a different way.74. The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will________.A. respond to t he owners’ orderB. respond to a sound deviceC. act on the owners’ instructionsD. act on the trainers’ order75. Having a conversation with people with dementia will be________.A. difficultB. interestingC. confusingD. encouragingPassage 4It seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people they can make more money than they would from sales of a CD. There will always be some people who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too—but making money through sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in the music business in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally—to computer, phones and MP3 players rose to$2 billion in 2006—an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year—yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buying CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers they used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big question for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music on mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases—they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24year olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as they heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product that you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for record companies, however, is the amount of music that is downloaded illegally.Piracy—usually in the form of cheaply copied CD—has long been an issue for the music business but the Internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76. What is unusual about the Crimea’s business plan?A. Their business was given away free on the Internet.B. They gave CDs away free in shops.C. They played free concerts.D. They charged more for their CDs77. The Crimea hope to make money________ .A. through CD salesB. by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC. by selling merchandise on the InternetD. through sales of merchandise in shops78. The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because________ .A. people who attend their concerts need themB. they want to make extra moneyC. there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD. people who fail to attend their concerts need them79. What is true about sales of music over the last year?A. Overall, sales are up last year.B. Overall, sales are down last year.C. There is no change compared to previous sales.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.80. What effect has the Internet had on music piracy?A. It has made it easier to fight piracy.B. It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C. It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D. It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.Part Ⅱ Cloze (1×20 points)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

The lake is over 200 metres 54 in places, and salmon, trout and eels are in abundance here.Over the border in England is the Lake District, 55 made famous by Romantic poets such as William Wordsworth two hundreds years ago. People have been 56 here en masse since 1847 57 a railway was built to its biggest lake, Windermere. 58 in the past boats plied its waters 59 stone, timber and wood, today’s craft are more likely to carry 60 on pleasure cruises—over a million a year, in fact.41.

In the schools of Ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students whowere working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates (考生) for the doctor‘s degree.Generally , however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all Students are tested on the on the same questions,was probably not known until the nineteenth century.Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in populationand the development of modern Industry, A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and Carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobilefactory. Certainly, , during examinations teachers and students are expected to actlike machines.One type of test ins sometimes called an objective test . It isintended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writhes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.31. In the Middle Ages students()A. took objective testsB. were timed by electric clocksC. specialized in one subjectD. never wrote exams32. The main idea of paragraph 3 is that ()A. workers now take examinationsB. the population has grownC. there are only written exams todayD. examinations are now written and timed33. The kind of exams where students must select answers are ()A. personalB. spokenC. objectiveD. written34. Modern industry must have developed()A. before the Middle AgesB. in Greece of RomeC. around the 19 th centuryD. machines to take tests35. It may be concluded that testing()A. should test only opinionsB. has hanged since the Middle AgesC. should always be writtenD. is given only in factoriesTask 2For millions of people around the world, the very word "Christmas" brings warmth and joy to their hearts and homes. To some, it is simply a very popular holiday. But for many, it honors the birth of Jesus Christ. Here is a brief history of Christmas and some of the traditions connected with it.Why December 25th?Well, during the first two centuries after Jesus' death, Christmas wasnot celebrated at all. Various attempts were made to determine the date of birth of Jesus, and at first, May 20th became the favored date. By the middle of the fourth century, however, Pope Julius selected December25th as the day on which to celebrate Christ's birth. Before that, December 25th had been a widely celebrated day in the Roman world. On that date, people honored a Roman sun god. Many modern Christmas customs, such as having a tree in the house and preparing special meals, came from this ancient celebration.Let's decorate the tree!The Christmas tree tradition was started in Germany in the late fifteenth century. At that time, there was a popular theater play which included afir tree hung with apples. Today, more than 80 percent of American families buy and decorate a tree at Christmas.How many Christmas cards do you usually send?The first commercial Christmas cards were made in London in 1843. A rich man paid an artist to design a card. He then proudly sent it to his friends and relatives to wish them a "Merry Christmas." It was a good idea and it soon caught on. Today, Americans exchange millions of Christmas cards every year.Santa Claus is coming to town!St. Nicholas was the original Santa Claus or "Father Christmas". He was widely known as a kind man who loved children. After his death, a story developed that he used to visit children on Christmas Eve and give them presents. When the Dutch people came to live in America many years ago, they brought their St. Nicholas, or Sinter Klaas in Dutch, with them. Sinter Klaas is therefore where we get the name Santa Claus.What's in that stocking?According to the story, the practice of hanging up stockings is connected with St. Nicholas. It is believed that St. Nicholas learned about a man who was hopelessly in debt. He also learned that the man and his daughters were about to be sold as slaves. Nicholas went to the man's home at night and threw a bag of gold through the man's window. The bag of gold landed in one of the daughters' stockings that had been hungup to dry.Today, all the above traditions are still kept as ways of celebrating Christmas.36. Lots of people celebrate Christmas to()A. show respect for Jesus ChristB. get warmth and joyC. spend money while shoppingD. spend money while shopping37. According to Paragraph 3, which of the following is NOTtrue? ()A. People tried many times to decide the date of birth of Jesus.B. People tried many times to decide the date of birth of Jesus.C. December 25th used to be a day on which to show respect to a Roman sun god.D. Christmas was celebrated widely soon after Jesus' death.38. What does "it soon caught on" in Paragraph 7 mean? ()A. It was not allowed by the people in London.B. It was popular among the people.C. It was not welcomed by the man's relatives and friends.D. It was very expensive.39. From the text, we can learn that the story of Father Christmas may come from()A. the GermansB. the RomansC. the DutchD. the Americans40. Why does Father Christmas put the presents in the stockings? ()A. Because he doesn't know where to put the presents.B. Because the stockings are good places for the presents.C. Because he wants children to spend time finding them.D. Because the gold thrown by St. Nicholas happened to fall in the stockings.Task 3Even the most powerful computer in the world can't be a genius because it has no character. It can remember and calculate quickly andaccurately, and handle great amounts of information—but it can't think about the information like we can. It has no feelings, no opinions, no moments of madness.Study the great human geniuses and you'll see that they all have special parts to their character, qualities that allow them to go beyond everything previously achieved. Their lives hold many of the secrets to having great ideas and putting them into practice. To be a genius you need to:—Have fun. Leonardo da Vinci was well known for his jokes and funny stories. Galileo had a busy social life and was another great joker. Bill Gates, the world's richest man, and the genius behind Microsoft, has been described as "a big teenager". He once said that one of his favorite hobbies was playing with earthmoving equipment on building sites! —Be curious. Geniuses spend their lives asking questions about the world around them.Leonardo da Vinci filled many notebooks with his questions that he wanted to answer. Here is one passage from his notebook:"I wandered about the countryside searching for answers to things I did not understand: why shells existed on the tops of mountains... why thunder lasts longer than that which causesit... how the various circles of water form around the spot that has been struck by a stone... how a bird flies..."—Be brave. Geniuses simply can't be afraid of making mistakes. Orville and Wilbur Wright had many crashes and ruined many planes before they finally got off the ground. Inventor Thomas Edison failed thousands of times before he managed to turn electricity into light. He told his friends that, because he knew so many ways that didn't work, he was much closer than any other inventor to finding the right answer! Geniuses must also be prepared to shock people. New ideas can seem strange and even frightening to others, and great thinkers are often described as being odd and foolish.—Keep trying. Thomas Edison once said that genius was "onepercent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration".To become a genius you must be prepared to work long and hard, often in the face of great difficulties.—Be inspired. The answers you're looking for may be close by—you just have to know where to look. Travel is another good source of inspiration. Mozart picked up many good musical ideas during his travels. While still a teenager, Albert Einstein persuaded his parents to let him tour the main cities of Italy. He came back with some exciting ideas. —Stay fit. An ancient saying goes, "A healthy mind in a healthy body". So it's very important for your body to be operating at its best so that your mind can also function powerfully.As well as being a philosopher, poet and politician, Sophocles wasalso a champion in sports and won many prizes. Leonardo da Vinci was famous for his strength and special ability in riding horses.So it is clear then, that to be a genius is to push the limits, in your mind, and beyond.41. The passage is mainly about _________.A. the qualities of geniusesB. the lives of geniusesC. the hobbies of geniusesD. the ideas of geniuses42. One thing that was NOT true about Leonardo da Vinci is that_______.A. his notebooks were full of his questionsB. he liked telling jokesC. he enjoyed playing on the building sitesD. he was very skillful at riding horses .43. Great thinkers are often considered to be strange and silly because_______.A. they have strange living habitsB. her college friends their ideas seem strange and frighteningC. doctorsthey have unusual charactersD. they behave in strange ways44. According to the text, travel is good in that it brings people _______.A. great fun.B. great funC. rich experiencesD. new and fresh ideas45.

Reading Comprehension (2%×15=30%)Passage OneWhen my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬)elders. Unluckily,this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant.One time,when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple,the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about howsensitive(敏感)Americans are and how they dislike the description"old". I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience.Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think "growing old" is a problem since "old" shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.After that,I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that l don"t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now l don't show my feelings through words.By Jack31.Jack brought the couple their food very fast because_____. [单选题] *A.the manager asked him to do soB.he respected the elderly(正确答案)C.the couple wanted him to do soD. he wanted more pay32.When Jack called the couple"elderly", they became______.

[单选题] *A.people dislike being called"old"B.people are proud of being old(正确答案)C.many people reach the age of seventy or eightyD.the elderly are the first to get food in restaurants34.After this experience, Jack _________.

[单选题] *A.The more Jack explained,the angrier the couple got.B.Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience.C.The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple.D.From this experience,Jack learned more about American culture.(正确答案) Passage TwoStudents who date(约会)in middle school have significantly worse study skills, are four times more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use than their single classmates, according to new research from the University of Georgia."Romantic relationships are a trademark of adolescence, but very few studies have examined how adolescents differ in the development of these relationships," said Pamela Orpinas, study author and professor in the College of Public Health and head of the Department of Health Promotion and Behavior.Orpinas followed a group of 624 students over a seven-year period from 6th to 12th grade.Each year,the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reported the frequency of different behaviors, including the use of drugs and alcohol. Their teachers completed questionnaires(调查表)about the students*academic efforts. He found some students never or hardly ever reported dating from middle to high school, and these students had consistently the best study skills according to their teachers. Other students dated infrequently in middle school but increased the frequency of dating in high school.‘At all points in time,teachers rated the students who reported the lowest frequency of dating as having the best study skills and the students with the highest dating as having the worst study skills,’ according to the journal article. Study skills refer to behaviors that lead to academic success such as doing work for extra credit being well organized, finishing homework, working hard and reading assigned chapters.‘Dating a classmate may have the same emotional complications of dating a co-worker,’ Orpinas said, ‘when the couple break up, they have to continue to see each other in class and perhaps witness the ex-partner dating someone else. It is reasonable to think this could be linked to depression and divert(转移)attention from studying.’‘Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school,’ Orpinas concluded.36.According to the passage, students who date in middle school may____ [单选题] *A.have poorer academic performances(正确答案)B.be more likely to hurl othersC.enjoy better school livesD.are less likely to use alcohol and tobacco37.When doing his study, Orpinas _____. [单选题] *A.followed a group of students of 6th and 12th gradepleted a survey and a report each yearpleted questionnaires about the students' academic effortsD.found that the students' study skills have connection with their frequency of dating(正确答案)38.Study skills may include the following behaviors and qualities Except_____ [单选题] *A.being diligentB.being well organizedC.being kind and helpful(正确答案)D.finishing assigned schoolwork39.What can possibly happen to the school couplesl after they break up? [单选题] *A.They don't want to see each other any longer.B.Their attention to studying will be affected.(正确答案)C.They will miss their ex-partners sometimesD.They will think it’s reasonable to get depressed.40.Orpinas' attitude towards dating in middle school is____ [单选题] *A.supportiveB.positiveC.negative(正确答案)D.indifferentPassage ThreeUntil last summer I had a very comfortable life: winter vacations skiing and summer cruises. My parents spent a lot of money on a private school, so they could get me into a competitive middle school. Everything was about tomorrow, next year, my graduation. We never had to worry about today.Before last summer I never thought much about the people in the world who live day to day, every day, whose lives are controlled by poverty and hunger. Then I enrolled in a two-week intensive program. We lived in a"Tribal Village," in a hot, dry open grassland in Arkansas, a state of the south-central United States. I am a tribal member in Mozambique, a country of southeast Africa. Every meal, I make the fire for my family, and feel the flames lick up my nostrils as I blow to keep the fuel alive. I cook mush with vegetables. This is all my family is ever given. I feed the hen and three rabbits their dinner. I grow attached to the rabbits, even though I know I shouldn't. I name them. I'm not getting enough to eat; it's time to decide whether or not to kill the rabbits. I feel pain but it's a privileged child's pain because I know I will soon be eating again. That's not true for a lot of other children around the world.Growing up comfortably in the U.S., I've never had to worry about my dinner, and even though this whole process was only a simulation, it changed my life. Now I believe in doing whatever I can to help find practical ways to defeat hunger.So I've become president of Roots and Shoots, a group working to improve local environments for people and animals. I'm also working to create a program at my high school called the"Safe Passage" trip to help young people in the Guatemala City dump. And I've got plans to do more.I'm often thinking of laboring in the hot sun and the millions who still do. Now, I try to live for today and stop worrying so much about the future. When I eat or feel full. I am grateful for this fortunate life and want to extend the same feeling to others.I believe in offering help to those who need it.41.

He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.He reported the case to the police and then sat there,lost and lonely in strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶)that had been left out on the footpath.My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people.We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.1.What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?A.Go shoppingB.Find a houseC.Join his familyD.Take his family2.The girl’s parents got Rashid’s phone number from_______.A.a friend of his familyB.a Sydney policemanC.a letter in his papesD.a stranger in Sydney3.What does the underlined word“restored”in the last paragraph mean?A.ShowedB.Sent outC.DeliveredD.Gave back4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.From India to Australia.B.Living in a a New Country.C.Turning Trash to Treasure.D.In Search of New Friends.BSince the first Earth Day in 1970,American have gotten a lot “greenter” toward the environment . “We didn’t know at that time there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it,”says Bruce Anderson,president of Earth Day USA.But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement .Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement. “The understanding has increased many ,many times,”says Gaylord Nelson,the fromergovermor from Wisconsin,who thought up the firstAccording to US government reports , emissions (排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 tons .The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9 .Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with , the world is a safer and healthier place .A kind of “Green thinking ” has become part of practices .Great improvement has been achieved .In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs ,; today in 1995 there are about 6,600 .Advanced lights ,motors , and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution .Twenty –five years ago , there were hardly any education programs for environment .Today , it’s hard to find a public school , university , or law school that does not have such a kind of program .” Until we do that , nothing else will change! ” say Bruce Anderson .5 According to Anderson , before 1970, Americans had little idea about ___A the social movementB recycling techniquesC environmental problemsD the importance of \Earth Day6 Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?A The grass –roots levelB The business circleC Government officialsD University professors7 What have \Americans achieved in environmental protection ?A They have cut car emissions to the lowestB They have settled their environmental problemsC They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.D They have reduced pollution through effective measures .8.What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last pargraph ?A EducationB PlanningC Green livingD CO reductionCOne of the latest trend(趋势)in American Childcare is Chinese au pairs. Au Pair in Stamford, for example, has got increasing numbers of request for Chinese au pairs zxxkfrom aero to around 4,000 since 2004. And that’s true all across the country.“I thought it would be useful for him to learn Chinese at an early age”Joseph Stocke, the managing director of s company, says of his 2-year old son. “I would at least like to give him the chance to use the language in the future,” After only six months of being cared by 25-year-old woman from China, the boy can already understand basic Chinese daily expressions, his dad says.Li Drake, a Chinese native raising two children in Minnesota with an American husband, had another reason for looking for an au pair from China. She didn’t want her children to miss out on their roots.”Because I am Chinese, my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to(接触) the language and culture.” she says.“Staying with a native speaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom,”says Suzanne Flynn, a professor in language education of Children.”But parents must understand that just one year with au pair is unlikely to produce wonders. Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12.”The popularity if au pairs from china has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children who want their children to learn Chinese. It is expected that American demand for aupairs will continue to rise in the next few years.9.What does that term” au pair” in the text mean?A. A mother raising her children on her ownB. A child learning a foreign language at homeC. A professor in language education of childrenD. A young foreign woman taking care of children.10. Li Drake has her children study Chinese because she wants them ______.A. to live in China some dayB. to speak the language at homeC. to catch up wit other childrenD. to learn about the Chinese culturezxxk11. What can we infer from the text?A. Learning Chinese is becoming popular In America,B. Educated woman do better in looking after childrenC. Chinese au pairs need to improve their English Skills.D. Children can learn a foreign language well in six months.can work well with your appetite and schedule.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies haveshown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51. This passage is mainly about ______.A) living space and behaviorB) population and living conditionsC) interesting experiments on ratsD) a natural law for human society52. What is the purpose of theexperiments described in the passage?A) To determine how much living space a rat needs.B) To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C) To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D) To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53. How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded? A) They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B) They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C) They eat little but sleep soundly.D) They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54. The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A) are directly related with populationB) may cause an increase in violenceC) may lead to high birth rateD) may bring about pollution problems Passage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto ( 世界语) , was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto isspoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role. 55. Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______. A) all people will be able to speak a common languageB) people will learn a foreign language betterC) people can understand each other betterD) people will be able to speak several languages56. Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A) he wanted people to learn it quicklyB) he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC) he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD) he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57. Which of the following is NOT true of English?A) It is widely taught in schools.B) It has become a second language for many millions of people.C) Many books have been written in English.D) It is less popular than Esperanto.58. What is the best title of the passage?A) The language made by one man.B) A talk about the world language.C) English as a second language for everyone.D) Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25 ,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a. m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years havestrengthened the city ’ s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake - resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake - resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations.When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.A) new computers had been installed in the buildingsB) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways 60. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______. A) counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake’ s vibrations61. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ______.A) the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB) the development of flexible building materialsC) the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD) early forecasts of earthquakes62. The main purpose of this passage is mostly to______.A) compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U. S.B) encourage civil engineers to makeextensive use of computersC) outline the history of the development of quake - resistant building materialsD) report new developments in constructing quake - resistant building Section BDirections; Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, mark the corresponding letter on the Answer with a single linePart IV Translation Section A Directions: Put the following sentences into Chinese.

American use their car for 23 90 per cent of all personal 24 .Most Americans are able to 25 cars. The average price of a 26 made car was $ 2, 050 in 1950, $ 2, 740 in 1960 and up to $ 4, 750 27 1975. During this period American car manufacturers set about 28 their products and work efficiency.As a result, the yearly income of the 29 family increased from 1950 to 1975 30 than the price of cars. For this reason 31 a new car takes a smaller 32 of a family's total earnings today.In 1951 33 it took 8.1 months of an average family's 34 to buy a new car. In 1962 a new car 35 8.3 of a family's annual earnings. By 1975 it only took 4.75 36 income.

Reading Comprehension (40 points; 55 minutes)Section 1Directions: Each of the following three passages is followed by some questions. For each question there are four choices. Choose the best answer to eachquestion. Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage OneQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage."The beauty of Wuyishan Mountain will amaze you." my Chinese friends said when told I would visit the nature reserve of Wuyishan Mountain. While I was impatient to verify their comments, I was skeptical. As a Canadian I am accustomed to large acres of greenery and vast forests.But now, I must confess my impression was wrong. I was not aware that a nature reserve could embody such splendid scenery and offer such startling glimpse of history and ancient culture. In a country of 1.2 billion inhabitants, I have discovered the marvel of a nature coexists in harmony and where modem life does not disrupt the rhythm of nature.The reserve is divided into four zones for protection and conservation which offer unique character; the conservation zone of biodiversity in the west, the ecological conservation zone of the Jiuquxi River in the center, the natural and cultural zone in the east, and finally, the ruins of the imperial Minyue City of the Han Dynasty in thevillage of Chengcun. These zones formed a total environment, which since 1987 has been recognized as part of the global network Man and Biosphere. To further promote preservation of this site, China has requested that Wuyishan Mountain reserve be listed as a Natural and Cultural World Heritage site of UNESCO.41. What's the author's reaction after he heard that "the beauty of Wuyishan Mountainwill amaze you"?A. Eager to verity but doubtfulB. Eager to appreciate the beautyC. Doubtful of its real beautyD. Indifferent and skeptical.42. What does the word "confess" mean?A. concludeB. conferC. acceptD. admit43. According to the passage, what is the characteristic of Wuyishan Mountain?A. greenery and vast forestsB. harmonious coexistence of man and natureC. splendid sceneryD. rhythm of nature44. What's the zone in the west known for?A. natural beautyB. cultural diversityC. ecological conservationD. conservation of biodiversity45. What does the word "biosphere" (Line 5. Para. 3.) mean?A. atmosphereB. circumstanceC. natureD. ecologyPassage TwoQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.You do not need every word to understand the meaning of what you read. In fact, too much emphasis on individual words both slows your speed and reduces your comprehension. You will be given the chance to prove this to yourself, but meanwhile, let us look at the implications.First, any habit which slows down your silent reading to the speed at which you speak, or read aloud, is inefficient. If you point to each word as you read, or move your head, or form the word with your lips, you read poorly. Less obvious habits also hold back reading efficiency. One is "saying" each word silently by moving your tongue or throat or vocal cords .another "hearing" each word you read.These are habits which should have been outgrown long ago. The beginning reader is learning how letters can make words, how written words are pronounced,and how sentences are put together. Your reading purpose is quite different; it is to understand meaning.It has been estimated that up to 75 % of the words in English sentences are not really necessary for conveying the meaning. The secret of silent reading is to seek out those key words and phrases which carry the thought, and to pay less attention to words which exist only for the sake of grammatical completeness.An efficient reader can grasp the meaning from a page at least twice as fast as he can read the page loud. Unconsciously perhaps, he takes in whole phrase or thought unit at a time. If he "says" or "hears" word to himself, they are selected ones, said for emphasis.46. This passage is mainly about __________.A. Improving eye movementsB. reading morewidelyC. eliminating poor reading habitsD. concentrating while reading47. Saying each word to yourself as you read __________.A. improves comprehensionB. increases reading speedC. prevents regressionD. hinders reading efficiency48. Your reading purpose should be __________.A. to understand all wordsB. to make fewer eye movementsC. to understand the meaningD. to understand the grammatical structures49. It has been estimated that up to 75 % of words in English sentences are__________.A. grammatically unnecessaryB. essential to the meaningC. not absolutely essential to grasp the meaningD. regressed more than once by poor reader50. Efficient readers usually __________.A. move their heads quicklyB. take in whole phrases at a timeC. point at key wordsD. miss some important points for readersPassage ThreeQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.In order to learn a foreign language well, it is necessary to overcome the fear of making mistakes. If the primary goal of language use is communication, then mistakes are secondary considerations that may be dealt with gradually as awareness of those mistakes increases. On the other hand, students should not ignore their mistakes. The language learner may observe how native speakers express themselves, and how native expressions differ from the way the learner might say them. For example, a Spanish speaker who has been saying ―I do it‖ to express willingness to do something in the immediate future, could, by interacting with native speakers of English, observe that native speakers actually say ―I‘ll do it.‖The resulting discrepancy can serve as a basis for the student to modify his way of using the present tense in English. But a student who is unwilling to interact in the first place would lose this opportunity to learn by trial and error.51. According to the passage, the present tense in English is __________.A. not used to express a desire to do something in the immediate futureB. used with some verbs but not with others to express future intentionC. basically the same in English as it is in SpanishD. not the most difficult problem for foreign students52. According to the passage, language learners can reduce the number of theirmistakes by __________.A. asking native speakers for explanationsB. reading good books in the foreign languageC. comparing their speech with that of native speakersD. speaking without regard to native speakers53. According to the passage, foreign language speakers will NOT __________.A. learn very much about the foreign cultureB. learn about the history of the foreign languageC. have no worry about making mistakesD. take advantage of available language models54. According to the passage, foreign language students should not worry too muchabout making mistakes because __________.A. native speakers like foreign students who try to learn their language.B. communication is the primary goal of language learningC. native speaker will ignore their mistakesD. everyone makes mistakes when trying to communicate in a strange language55. The author‘s major conclusion about the function of mistakes in foreign languagelearning is that __________.A. mistakes are not important in the process of learning a languageB. learners are often very afraid of making mistakesC. making mistakes can help the learner discover the rules of the languageD. native speakers often do not tell foreign language learners about their mistakes Section 2Directions: Read the following passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (A) or false (B). Then blacken the corresponding letter(A or B)onthe Answer Sheet.(对的在答题卡上划A, 错的在答题卡上划B) Passage FourQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:Just look around at any school or shopping mall and you‘ll see (and hear) one thing for sure: Teens are head over heels for cell phones. By 2005, two out of three Americans between the ages of 10 and 19 will be mobile, say experts at theBoston-based research firm Yankee Group. Yet a troubling question dogs cell phone use: Do the phones possibly cause brain cancer?Two new studies – one funded by the cell phone industry and the US government, the other by the National Cancer institute – claim: Probably not.The studies compared 1,251 brain cancer patients with 1,221 cancer-free people. All subjects were short-term cell phone users who chatted less than three hours per month and owned a cell phone for three years. Neither study proved a conclusive link between using cell phones and brain cancer. ―But these studies don‘t answer thequestions, is it absolutely impossible for cell phones to cause brain cancer?‖ says John Molders, a cancer specialist at the Medical College of Wisconsin.]Yet not all scientists agree cell phones are harmless. Previous research has shown a possible link between cell phones and brain cancer in animals, says Louis Slewing, editor of Microwave News. The issue is far from settled, he says.Cell phones emit an invisible type of energy called radio waves. When you speak into a digital cell phone, your vocal vibrations are converted into digital signals (a series of on-off pulses). The phone‘s antenna then transmits the sig nals as radio waves, which bounce between radio towers and satellites in orbit above Earth.While both sending and receiving calls, your cell phone emits a tiny amount of energy – less than one watt (energy unit per second) – next to your ear. Many experts think radio waves are harmless, even at the close range. Others however, think, ―the jury is still out.‖( ) 56. Two-thirds of Americans will use mobile phone by 2005.( ) 57. There‘s still not definite conclusion as to whether cell phone cause b rain cancer.( ) 58. A research proves that the use of cell phones causes brain cancer in animals. ( ) 59. Cell phone transmits vocal vibrations from one to another.( ) 60. Experts are divided about the harmlessness of radio waves.Paper Two(60 minutes)Part IV.

But they also 22 beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a 23 . The world geography 24 from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for ―earth‖ and graphein, 25 means ―to write‖. The English word geography means, ―to describe the earth‖. 26 Geography books focus on a small area 27 a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an 28continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another 29 to divide the study of 30 is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the 31 starts with humanbeings and 32 how human beings and their subject, 33 branch can neglect the other. But when geography is considered as a single subject, 34 branch can neglect the other.A geographer might be described 35 one who observes records and explains the __36_between places.

Reading Comprehension (40 points; 55 minutes)Section 1Directions: Each of the following three passages is followed by some questions. For each question there are four choices. Choose the best answer to eachquestion. Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage OneQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.Banks are ordinarily prepared to pay out all accounts; they rely on depositors not to demand payment all at the same time. If depositors should come to fear that a bank is not sound, that it cannot pay off its depositors, then that fear might cause all the depositors to appear on the same day. If they did, the bank could not pay all the accounts. However, if they did not all appear at once, then there would always be funds to pay those who wanted their money when they wanted it. Mrs. Elsie Vaught has told us of a terrifying bank run that she experienced. One day in December of 1925 several banks failed to open in a city where Mrs. Vaught lived. The other banks anticipated a run the next day, and so the officers of the bank in which Mrs. Vaught worked as a teller had enough funds in hand to pay off as many depositors as might apply. The officers simply instructed the tellers to pay on demand. Next morning a crowd gathered in the bank and on the sidewalk outside. The length of the line convinced many that the bank could not possibly pay off everyone. People began to push and then to fight for places near the tellers‘ windows. Clothing was torn and limbs were broken, but the jam continued for hours. The power of the panic atmosphere is evident in the fact that two tellers, though they knew that the bank was sound and could pay out all depositors, nevertheless withdrew the funds in their own accounts. Mrs. Vaught says that she had difficulty restraining herself from doing the same.41. A bank run occurs when __________.A. a bank is closed for one or more daysB. too many depositors attempt to draw out their money at one timeC. there is not enough money to pay all of its depositors at one timeD. employees of a bank take their own funds out of the bank42. The tellers in Mrs. Vaught‘s bank were told to __________.A. explain why they could not pay out all depositsB. pay out deposits as requestedC. assure customers that the bank was soundD. pay out money as slowly as possible43. The essential cause of a run on a bank is __________.A. loss of confidenceB. lack of sufficient fundsC. crowds of peopleD. inefficient tellers44. Which of the following did Mrs. Vaught say?A. She knew that the bank was not sound.B. She feared that too many withdrawals would close the bank.C. She was not able to draw out her money.D. She was tempted to draw out her money.45. According to the passage, the actions of the customers of Mrs. Vau ght‘s bankwere influenced chiefly by the __________.A. ease with which they could obtain their moneyB. confidence demonstrated by other customers of the bankC. confidence that Mrs. Vaught demonstratedD. failure of several other banks to openPassage TwoQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Gravity holds us so dose to the Earth's surface that nobody can jump more than a few feet into the air without the force of gravity pulling him down. It takes a powerful engine to keep an airplane up in the air. If you throw a ball upwards as hard as you can, you will notice that it travels in a curved path before it comes back to the ground. If the Earth had no gravity, the ball, instead of traveling in a curve, would move away in a straight line; in fact, it would never come back to the ground. If the Earth were to lose its pull of gravity, we should all fly off it as it spins round in space. The Earth has a strong pull, but modem rockets going out into space are able to escape from the。

For example, a Frenchman talks and moves in French ways, while an Englishman and a __22___ American cross their legs very differently. It is also interesting to note that in talking, Americans are likely to end a sentence with a dropping of the head or hand, as well as with a lowering of the __23___. They finish up a question with a raise of the hand, a lift of the __24___, or a wideningof the eyes.What's__25___, there are regional phrases too; an expert can sometimes pick out a __26__ of Wisconsin just by the way a person uses his or her eyebrows during conversations.

In the schools of Ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students whowere working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates (考生for the doctor‘s degree.Generally , however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all Students are tested on the on the same questions,was probably not known until the nineteenth century.Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in populationand the development of modern Industry, A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and Carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobilefactory. Certainly, , during examinations teachers and students are expected to actlike machines.One type of test ins sometimes called an objective test . It isintended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writhes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.31. In the Middle Ages students(A. took objective testsB. were timed by electric clocksC. specialized in one subjectD. never wrote exams32. The main idea of paragraph 3 is that (A. workers now take examinationsB. the population has grownC. there are only written exams todayD. examinations are now written and timed33. The kind of exams where students must select answers are (A. personalB. spokenC. objectiveD. written34. Modern industry must have developed(A. before the Middle AgesB. in Greece of RomeC. around the 19 th centuryD. machines to take tests35. It may be concluded that testing(A. should test only opinionsB. has hanged since the Middle AgesC. should always be writtenD. is given only in factoriesTask 2For millions of people around the world, the very word "Christmas" brings warmth and joy to their hearts and homes. To some, it is simply a very popular holiday. But for many, it honors the birth of Jesus Christ. Here is a brief history of Christmas and some of the traditions connected with it.Why December 25th?Well, during the first two centuries after Jesus' death, Christmas wasnot celebrated at all. Various attempts were made to determine the date of birth of Jesus, and at first, May 20th became the favored date. By the middle of the fourth century, however, Pope Julius selected December25th as the day on which to celebrate Christ's birth. Before that, December 25th had been a widely celebrated day in the Roman world. On that date, people honored a Roman sun god. Many modern Christmas customs, such as having a tree in the house and preparing special meals, came from this ancient celebration.Let's decorate the tree!The Christmas tree tradition was started in Germany in the late fifteenth century. At that time, there was a popular theater play which included afir tree hung with apples. Today, more than 80 percent of American families buy and decorate a tree at Christmas.How many Christmas cards do you usually send?The first commercial Christmas cards were made in London in 1843. A rich man paid an artist to design a card. He then proudly sent it to his friends and relatives to wish them a "Merry Christmas." It was a good idea and it soon caught on. Today, Americans exchange millions of Christmas cards every year.Santa Claus is coming to town!St. Nicholas was the original Santa Claus or "Father Christmas". He was widely known as a kind man who loved children. After his death, a story developed that he used to visit children on Christmas Eve and give them presents. When the Dutch people came to live in America many years ago, they brought their St. Nicholas, or Sinter Klaas in Dutch, with them. Sinter Klaas is therefore where we get the name Santa Claus.What's in that stocking?According to the story, the practice of hanging up stockings is connected with St. Nicholas. It is believed that St. Nicholas learned about a man who was hopelessly in debt. He also learned that the man and his daughters were about to be sold as slaves. Nicholas went to the man's home at night and threw a bag of gold through the man's window. The bag of gold landed in one of the daughters' stockings that had been hungup to dry.Today, all the above traditions are still kept as ways of celebrating Christmas.36. Lots of people celebrate Christmas to(A. show respect for Jesus ChristB. get warmth and joyC. spend money while shoppingD. spend money while shopping37. According to Paragraph 3, which of the following is NOTtrue? (A. People tried many times to decide the date of birth of Jesus.B. People tried many times to decide the date of birth of Jesus.C. December 25th used to be a day on which to show respect to a Roman sun god.D. Christmas was celebrated widely soon after Jesus' death.38. What does "it soon caught on" in Paragraph 7 mean? (A. It was not allowed by the people in London.B. It was popular among the people.C. It was not welcomed by the man's relatives and friends.D. It was very expensive.39. From the text, we can learn that the story of Father Christmas may come from(A. the GermansB. the RomansC. the DutchD. the Americans40. Why does Father Christmas put the presents in the stockings? (A. Because he doesn't know where to put the presents.B. Because the stockings are good places for the presents.C. Because he wants children to spend time finding them.D. Because the gold thrown by St. Nicholas happened to fall in the stockings.Task 3Even the most powerful computer in the world can't be a genius because it has no character. It can remember and calculate quickly andaccurately, and handle great amounts of information—but it can't think about the information like we can. It has no feelings, no opinions, no moments of madness.Study the great human geniuses and you'll see that they all have special parts to their character, qualities that allow them to go beyond everything previously achieved. Their lives hold many of the secrets to having great ideas and putting them into practice. To be a genius you need to:—Have fun. Leonardo da Vinci was well known for his jokes and funny stories. Galileo had a busy social life and was another great joker. Bill Gates, the world's richest man, and the genius behind Microsoft, has been described as "a big teenager". He once said that one of his favorite hobbies was playing with earthmoving equipment on building sites! —Be curious. Geniuses spend their lives asking questions about the world around them.Leonardo da Vinci filled many notebooks with his questions that he wanted to answer. Here is one passage from his notebook:"I wandered about the countryside searching for answers to things I did not understand: why shells existed on the tops of mountains... why thunder lasts longer than that which causesit... how the various circles of water form around the spot that has been struck by a stone... how a bird flies..."—Be brave. Geniuses simply can't be afraid of making mistakes. Orville and Wilbur Wright had many crashes and ruined many planes before they finally got off the ground. Inventor Thomas Edison failed thousands of times before he managed to turn electricity into light. He told his friends that, because he knew so many ways that didn't work, he was much closer than any other inventor to finding the right answer! Geniuses must also be prepared to shock people. New ideas can seem strange and even frightening to others, and great thinkers are often described as being odd and foolish.—Keep trying. Thomas Edison once said that genius was "onepercent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration".To become a genius you must be prepared to work long and hard, often in the face of great difficulties.—Be inspired. The answers you're looking for may be close by—you just have to know where to look. Travel is another good source of inspiration. Mozart picked up many good musical ideas during his travels. While still a teenager, Albert Einstein persuaded his parents to let him tour the main cities of Italy. He came back with some exciting ideas. —Stay fit. An ancient saying goes, "A healthy mind in a healthy body". So it's very important for your body to be operating at its best so that your mind can also function powerfully.As well as being a philosopher, poet and politician, Sophocles wasalso a champion in sports and won many prizes. Leonardo da Vinci was famous for his strength and special ability in riding horses.So it is clear then, that to be a genius is to push the limits, in your mind, and beyond.41. The passage is mainly about _________.A. the qualities of geniusesB. the lives of geniusesC. the hobbies of geniusesD. the ideas of geniuses42. One thing that was NOT true about Leonardo da Vinci is that_______.A. his notebooks were full of his questionsB. he liked telling jokesC. he enjoyed playing on the building sitesD. he was very skillful at riding horses .43. Great thinkers are often considered to be strange and silly because_______.A. they have strange living habitsB. her college friends their ideas seem strange and frighteningC. doctorsthey have unusual charactersD. they behave in strange ways44. According to the text, travel is good in that it brings people _______.A. great fun.B. great funC. rich experiencesD. new and fresh ideas45.

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B ,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer onthe ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneKids often ask Scout Bassett, of Palm Desert, California, if she wishes she had two normal legs. Scout, 18,answers, “No. I have never known anything different, and it would seem weird to me. Besides, if it weren^t for themissing leg, I wouldn?t have the opportunities I have today!”Scout has faced big challenges. When she was only months old,she suffered from terrible burns. Her right leg wasespecially damaged,and doctors cut it off above the knee. When she was 14,she got a high-tech leg made for sportsand put it to the test right away in a race for disabled athletes. “I remember being terrified because this was my firsttime,’’ she says. “But my doctor said,‘You have to start somewhere. ’ ”Scout was waiting nervously for the race to start when athlete Sarah Reinertsen came up and said,“I’ve beendoing this for a while. Let me give you some tips. ’’ R einertsen,who lost her leg when she was seven, is the firstdisabled woman to have finished the Ironman Triathlon(铁人三项)in Hawaii. She works with an organization tohelp support people like Scout.Reinertsen’s encouragement changed the teenager^s life. S he lost that first race, but gained the confidence thatshe needed to compete. If Sarah could do it,she could too. Training hard, she now runs competitively and also findstime to share her story with school groups.“Sometimes people look at me or at Sarah and think they have nothing in common with us. I tell them that even ifyou arenJt physically challenged, everybody has challenges of some kind —maybe with family,or homework,orfriends. No matter what it is,you can over-come that obstacle,” she says. “Everything you need is inside your heart.Take small steps. As time goes by,the steps will get bigger and you will reach your dream.”16. Why does Scout answer “No” when asked if she wants two normal legs?A. She?s scared of changing her current situation.B.She couldn't have them even if she wanted to.C.She has never thought about it before.D.She’s satisfied with what she has achieved as a disabled.17. What does the doctor mean by saying “You have to start somewhere”(Para. 2)?A.She has to do it sooner or later.B.She has to find the right place to start.C.That will be a memorable first time.D.That is a perfect time to start.18. Scout’s childhood experiences____.A.were the cause of her shynessB.were a nightmare until she reached 14C.didn’t stop her from fulfilling herselfD.didn’t have much influence on her later life19. Which of the following statements is true?A.Sarah shared her story with school students.B.Sarah started to compete at the age of seven.C.Scout has been inspired by Sarah’s success.D.Scout joined Sarah’s organization to help others.20. Through Scout’s story,the author wants to tell us that ____ .A.the disabled are mentally stronger than othersB.inner strength can help one overcome difficultiesC.good things will come no matter whatD.everybody has to challenge himselfPassage TwoImpatience has been around for a long time. There is nothing new about people losing their patience while stuckin traffic or waiting in line. But some experts believe that people are less patient today than in the past.Some analysts suggest that in recent years many people are less patient because of technology. They suggest that"digital technology, from cellphones to e-mails to iPads, is changing our lives. The instant results we get from thistechnology have in turn increased our appetite for instant satisfaction in other aspects of our lives."Psychologist Jennifer Hartstein makes some observations. She explains that “we have become animmediate satisfaction culture, and we expect things to move quickly, efficiently and in the way we want. When thatdoesn7t happen, we tend to become increasingly frustrated and unsatisfied. “Some believe that e-mail is losing popularity and could soon become outdated. Why? Because many people whosend messages do not have the patience to wait hours, or even minutes, for a response. Also, with e-mails, as withletter writing, introductory and concluding greetings are often expected. But many people consider suchformalities(客套)to be boring and time-consuming. They prefer instant messaging. Many people do not take the timeto proofread what they put in writing. As a result, letters and e-mails contain numerous grammatical andtypographical errors.The thirst for immediate results is not limited to the realm of digital communications. People seem to be losingtheir ability to wait in other areas of life. For instance, do you ever find yourself talking too fast, eating too fast,driving too fast, or spending money too fast? The few moments it takes to wait for an elevator to come, for a trafficlight to change, or for a computer to start may seem like too long a time.21.

The best title for the passage might be “”A. What Are the Problems Caused by Impatience?B. Are We Less Patient Today?C. What Happened to Technology?D.

Carbon footprints tend to be low for city dwellers(城镇居民). Living in a suburb outside a city,however, can turn that footprint into a bootprint.Energy researchers Christopher Jones and Daniel Kammen calculated carbon footprints for people in every zipcode across the United States. People living in city centers had small footprints, the researchers found. ,lIt is mucheasier to have a low carbon impact if your home is close to where you work, shop and play,” explains Jones. Livingwithin walking or biking distance cuts back on the amount of carbon dioxide associated with moving people by cars.And cities with extensive bus and subway networks allow people to travel great distances while keeping releases ofclimate-altering greenhouse gases low.Not everyone can afford to live in the city, however. And not everyone wants to. Rings of suburbs have popped uparound major cities across the world. Suburbs offer more space, allowing people to build larger homes. Suburbs mayoffer better schools for a family?s kids. But those homes are typically well beyond walking distance from where theirowners work, play or learn. So people who live in suburbs often drive long distances. The new findings are an important contribution to climate research, says Matthew Kahn,an environmentaleconomist at the University of California, who was not involved with the study. Kahn would like to see the analysisapplied to other parts of the world—Europe, India and China, for instance. That would give scientists a better feel forhow culture might mix with location to influence our carbon footprints.26. “Footprint” refers to the amount of carbon dioxide released by.A. an industryB. an individualC. a regionD. a country27. What is the new finding concerning the footprints of people living in cities and those living in suburbs?A. The two are not at all comparable.B. The former are higher than the latter.C. The latter are higher than the former.D. The former are similar to the latter.28. What is the key factor mentioned to explain the new "findings?A. Distance travelled by cars.B. Spending habits.C. Size of families.D. Attitude towards energy saving.29. What does Matthew Kahn think of the new findings?A. He is confused by the mixed messages.B. He thinks highly of them.C. He can easily understand them.D. He doubts their validity.30. What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage?A. To call on people to reduce carbon footprints.B. To offer tips on how to live a low-carbon life.C. To clear up misunderstandings about carbon emission.D. To introduce the research on carbon footprints.Passage FourIt was a chilly November evening in New York City,and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway. Noranoticed a guy sitting inside a cardboard box next to a newsstand. She pulled at my coat sleeve and said, “That manJscold,Daddy.

I had always been delighted athow much my daughter noticed in her world, whether it was birds in flight or children playing. But now she wasnoticing suffering and poverty. She wasn’t even four.A few days later,I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who delivered meals to elderly people. Thevolunteers went to a nearby school on a Sunday morning,picked up a food package,and delivered it to an elderlyperson. I signed us up. Nora was excited about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easilysee how valuable our job was. When Sunday came, we picked up the package and phoned the elderly person weMbeen assigned. She invited us right over.The building was depressing. When the door opened, facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. Shetook the package and asked if we would like to come in. Nora ran inside. I reluctantly followed. Our hostess showedus some photos of her family. Nora played and laughed. I accepted a second cup of tea. When it came time to saygood-bye, we three stood in the doorway and hugged. I walked home in tears.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies haveshown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51. This passage is mainly about ______.A) living space and behaviorB) population and living conditionsC) interesting experiments on ratsD) a natural law for human society52. What is the purpose of theexperiments described in the passage?A) To determine how much living space a rat needs.B) To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C) To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D) To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53. How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded? A) They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B) They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C) They eat little but sleep soundly.D) They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54. The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A) are directly related with populationB) may cause an increase in violenceC) may lead to high birth rateD) may bring about pollution problems Passage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto ( 世界语) , was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto isspoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role. 55. Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______. A) all people will be able to speak a common languageB) people will learn a foreign language betterC) people can understand each other betterD) people will be able to speak several languages56. Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A) he wanted people to learn it quicklyB) he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC) he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD) he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57. Which of the following is NOT true of English?A) It is widely taught in schools.B) It has become a second language for many millions of people.C) Many books have been written in English.D) It is less popular than Esperanto.58. What is the best title of the passage?A) The language made by one man.B) A talk about the world language.C) English as a second language for everyone.D) Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25 ,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a. m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years havestrengthened the city ’ s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake - resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake - resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations.When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.A) new computers had been installed in the buildingsB) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways 60. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______. A) counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake’ s vibrations61. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ______.A) the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB) the development of flexible building materialsC) the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD) early forecasts of earthquakes62. The main purpose of this passage is mostly to______.A) compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U. S.B) encourage civil engineers to makeextensive use of computersC) outline the history of the development of quake - resistant building materialsD) report new developments in constructing quake - resistant building Section BDirections; Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, mark the corresponding letter on the Answer with a single linePart IV Translation Section A Directions: Put the following sentences into Chinese.

One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry. In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learnfrom their rich experience. However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn?t want to hear. After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don?t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don?t show my feelings through words.By Jack1.

From this experience, Jack learned more about American cultureStudents who date (约会)in middle school have significantly worse study skills, are four times more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use than their single classmates, according to new research from the University of Georgia. "Romantic relationships are a trademark of adolescence ,but very few studies have examined how adolescents differ in the development of these relationships," said Pamela Orpinas ,study author and professor in the College of Public Health and head of the Department of Health Promotion and Behavior. Orpinas followed a group of 624 students over a seven-year period from 6th to 12th grade. Each year, the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reported the frequency of different behaviors, including the use of drugs and alcohol. Their teachers completed questionnaires (调查表)about the students* academic efforts. He found some students never or hardly ever reporteddating from middle to high school, and these students had consistently the best study skills according to their teachers. Other students dated infrequently in middle school but increased the frequency of dating in high school. "At all points in time, teachers rated the students who reported the lowest frequency of dating as having the best study skills and the students with the highest dating as having the worst study skills,'1 according to the journal article. Study skills refer to behaviors that lead to academic success such as doing work for extra credit being well organized, finishing homework, working hard and reading assigned chapters. "Dating a classmate may have the same emotional complications of dating a co-worker," Orpinas said, "when the couple break up. they have to continue to see each other in class and perhaps witness the ex-partner dating someone else.

My parents spent a lot of money on a private school, so they could get me into a competitive middle school. Everything was about tomorrow, next year, my graduation. We never had to worry about today. Before last summer I never thought much about the people in the world who live day to day, every day, whose lives are controlled by poverty and hunger. Then I enrolled in a two-week intensive program. We lived in a “Tribal Village,” in a hot, dry open grassland in Ar kansas, a state of the south-central United States. I am a tribal member in Mozambique, a country of southeast Africa. Every meal, I make the fire for my family, and feel the flames lick up my nostrils as I blow to keep the fuel alive. I cook mush with vegetables. This is all my family is ever given. I feed the hen and three rabbits their dinner. I grow attached to the rabbits, even though I know I shouldn’t. I name them. I’m notgetting enough to eat; it’s time to decide whether or not to kill the rabbits. I feel pain but it’s a privileged child’s pain because I know I will soon be eating again. That’s not true for a lot of other children around the world. Growing up comfortably in the U.S., I’ve never had to worry about my dinner, and even though this whole process was only a simulation, it changed my life. Now I believe in doing whatever I can to help find practical ways to defeat hunger. So I’ve become president of Roots and Shoots, a group working to improve local environments for people and animals. I’m also working to create a program at my high school called th e “Safe Passage” trip to help young people in the Guatemala City dump. And I’ve got plans to do more. I'm often thinking of laboring in the hot sun and the millions who still do. Now, I try to live for today and stop worrying so much about the future. When I eat or feel full, I am grateful for this fortunate life and want to extend the same feeling to others. I believe in offering help to those who need it.11.

One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬)elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was servingfood to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served soquickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I alwaysrespect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. Mymanager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lectureabout how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard myreason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so theylaughed and were no longer angry. In my village in China, people are proud ofbeing old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reachsuch an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respectolder people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here manypeople try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging,and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in therestaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feelthey had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn?t want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don?trespect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don?t show my feelings throughwords.By Jack1. Jack brought the couple their food very fast because _______.A. the manager asked him to do soB. he respected the elderly。
