The favorite place to buy a hamburger is a fast food restaurant. At fast food restaurants, people order their food, wait a few minutes, and carry it to their tables themselves. People also take their food out of the restaurant and eat it in their cars or in their homes. At some fast food restaurants, people can order their food, pay for it and pick it up without leaving their cars.There are many kinds of fast food restaurants in the United States. The greatest in number sell hamburgers, French fries and so on. They are popular food among Americans. Besides, fast food, Italian food, chicken, seafood and ice-cream are very many.

People who are busy do not want to spend time preparing their own food or waiting while someone prepares it . In fast food restaurants the food is usually ready before the customer even orders it. Finally, most food in a fast food restaurant is not expensive. Therefore people are able to buy and eat at fast food restaurant often, while they may not be able to go to a more expensive restaurant very often.41.

There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we cannot detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver, Similarly, we cannot sense radioactivity without a radio detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other things.At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells in vital organs. But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hurt anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright, your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they re-produce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in a deformed way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or liable to serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth. 46. The author' s purpose in writing this passage is __________.A. to explain what nuclear power isB. to explain what nuclear radiation isC. to warn people of the danger of nuclearD. to list the bad points of nuclear power 47. All of the following are the shared qualities of nuclear radiation and common radio waves,except __________.A. they are all around usB. they cannot be touchedC. they cannot be seenD. they cannot be detected by human senses 48. The least serious damage nuclear radiation may do on a person is to __________.A. kill a few cells outright, which will be replaced with healthy onesB. damage a fen cells, which will reproduce themselvesC. kill masses of cells in vital organsD. deform some brain cells 49. Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can __________.A. kill large number of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediatelyB. damage cells which may grow into cancer years laterC. affect the healthy growth of the offspringD. all of the above50. We can infer from the passage that __________.A. the danger of nuclear radiation should not be emphasizedB. only nuclear radiation can cause cancerC. some people might have been hurt by nuclear radiation without their realizing itD. nuclear radiation can cause accidentsPassage 3Telephone, television, radio, and the Internet help people communicate with each other. Because of these devices (设备) , ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster (灾难) , such as a flood, can bring help from distant countries. Within hours, help is on the way. This is because modern technology information travels fast.How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller.Of course, this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the oceans. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach America. This time difference influenced people's actions. For example, a few battles in the war of 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided (避免). A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans (新奥尔良) was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty (条约) had been signed. They would not have died if news had come in time. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now. There was a good reason why the world seemed so much larger than it does today.51. Why does news spread fast?A. Because of a peace agreement.B. Because of the changes of the world.C. Because of new technology.D. Because of modem transportation.52. According to this passage, ________ is very important to people in a disaster area.A. the newsB. new ideasC. fast communicationD. modern technology53. Which of the following statements is true based on the text?A. The world now seems smaller because of the faster communication.B. The world is actually smaller today.C. The world is changing in size.D. The distance between England and America has changed since the War of 1812.54. Two hundred years ago, news between the continents was carried _________.A. by telephoneB. by landC. by airD. by sea55. The New Orleans Battle could have been avoided if the peace agreement had been signed _________.A. by both sidesB. in timeC. in AmericaD. in EnglandPassage 4Anna Douglas was seventy-two years old when she started writing her newspaper column. She had been the director of a school before she retired, but she needed to keep busy. She was even willing to work without pay. That was the reason she found a volunteer job with an agency. The agency that she chose to work for was a business that helped other businesses find jobs for old people. Every day she talked with other retired people like herself. By talking, she recognized two things. Old people had abilities that were not being used. Old people also had problems--mostly problems with communication.Mrs. Douglas found a new purpose for herself. Through the years, from time to time she had written stories about people for national magazines. Now there was a new subject; old people like herself. She began to write a newspaper column called "Over Sixty", which focuses on getting old. She writes about the problems of old people, especially their problems with being misunderstood.Anna Douglas uses her thinking ability to see the truth behind a problem. She understands the reasons why problems begin. She understands old people and young people, too. For example, one of her readers said that his grandchildren left the house as soon as he came to visit. Mrs. Douglas suggested some ways for him to increase understanding with his grandchildren. She told him to listen to young people's music and to watch the most popular television shows."It's important to know something about your grandchildren's world," says Mrs. Douglas. "But most of all, keep your mind open. Do not close out other people. Listen to the other people in your family. Keep on talking. And above all else, keep on listening and communicating. You stop living when you stop sharing ideas with other."56. Mrs. Douglas, aged 72, is _________.A. the director of an agencyB. the director of a schoolC. a business managerD. a columnist57. What Mrs. Douglas needs is _________.A. moneyB. to keep busyC. an easy lifeD. to talk with old people58.

Undoubtedly, they have proved valuable, but they also have disadvantages. For example, they have increased our already large number of crimes.Hacking was the first computer crime that most of us became aware of. By using their computing expertise, hackers can gain unauthorized access to someone else's computer and make use of the data they find there. They may, for example, find lists of their competitors' clients and use these lists to build up their own businesses or they may use hacking technology to fnd out a rival company's plans. Other hacking activities may be more obviously criminal, because hackers may log on to financial data in someone else's computer and alter it illegally or use it for fraudulent(欺诈的)purposes.The possibility of serious financial fraud has been greatly increased by the modern practice of purchasing goods through the Internet. Apparently, the use of credit cards to pay for purchase has led to many people being swindled(骗取) out of a great deal of money. Banks are working hard to improve online security and to provide safeguards for customers, but frauds are working just as hard to improve their techniques of deceiving people.Many computer users worry about thoir Systems bcing alfected by computor viruses. Pcople who introduce these bugs into other people'8 compuler programs may not intentionally commit a crime but may do so as an act of mischief. The motive does not really matter to people whose data has been deleted or altered or whose files have been corrupted. Computers are part of a highly technical method of working,in which there are constantly new developments. Unfortunately, there is also a constant stream of new developments in the fraud industry associated with them. All computer users must be on their guard.41. From the passage we can know that ________.A. computers are not a relatively new inventionB. computers have proved to be a curse rather than a blessingC. computers have proved to be of utue significanceD. computers have walked into our lives recently42. According to the passage, which of the following can make shopping online safe?A. Improving the banking security systemB. Always using credit cards.C. Withdrawing money from a bank only when you need it .D.Asking friends to shop online for you43.According to the passage, ________.A. computer users must be on guard against computer crimesB. hackers have authorized access to someone else's computerC people don't have to care much about computer virusesD. computer crimes can be prevented easily44. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as an example of hacking?A. Accessing someone else's financial dataB. Finding out a competitor's plansC. Sending computer viruses to the publicD. Finding the lists of a competitor's clients45. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Advantages of ComputersB Disadvantages of ComputersC. Computer HackinD. Computers Have Become a Must in PeoPassage 2The terms “global warming” and “climate change” are used by many, seemingly interchangeably. But do they really mean the same thing?Scientists shaped the history of the terms while attempting to accurately describe how humans continueto alter the planet. Later, political strategists adopted the terms to influence public opinion.In 1975, geochemist Wallace Broecker introduced the term “climate change” in an article published by Science. In 1979, a National Academy of Sciences report used the term “global warming” to define increases in the Earth’s average surface temperature, while “climate change” more broadly referred to the numerous effects of this increase, such as sea-level rise and ocean acidification (酸化).During the following decades, some industrialists and politicians launched a campaign to sow doubt in the minds of the American public about the ability offossil-fuel use, deforestation and other human activities to influence the planet’s climate.Word use played a critical role in developing that doubt. For example, the language and polls expert Frank Luntz wrote a memo encouraging the use of “climate change” because the phrase sounded less scary than “global warming”, reported the Guardian.However, Luntz’s recommendation wasn’t necessary. A Google Ngram Viewer chart shows that by 1993 climatechange was already more commonly used in books than global warming. By the end of the next decade both words were used more frequently, and climate change was used nearly twice as often as global warming. NASA used the term “climate change” because it more accurately reflects the wide range of changes to the planet caused by increasing amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.The debate isn’t new. A century ago, chemist Svante Arrhenius started one of the first debates over the potential for humans to influence the planet’s climate. Arrhenius calculated the capability of carbon dioxide to trap heat in the Earth’s atmosphere, but other chemists disagreed. Some argued that humans weren’t producing enough greenhouse gases, while others claimed the effects would be tiny. Now, of course, we know that whatever you call it, human behavior is warming the planet, with grave consequences ahead.51.Why did politicians use the two terms“ "global warming”“ and“ climate change？A) To sway public opinion of the impact of humanactivities on Earth.B) To more accurately describe the consequences ofC) To win more popular votes in their campaign activities.D) To assure the public of the safety of existing industries52. As used in a National Academy of Sciences report.,the term“ "climate change" differs from“ global warming”in that_______A) it sounds less vagueB)it looks more scientifC)it covers more phenomenaD)it is much closer to reality53. What did industrialists of the late20 Oth century resort to in order to mislead Americans?A)Made-up survey resultsB)Hired climate expertsC)False research findingsD)Deliberate choice of words54. Why did NASA choose the term "climate change"?A) To obtain more fundsB.For greater precisionC)For political needsD) To avoid debate55. What is the author's final conclusion?A)Global warming is the more accurate termB) Accuracy of terminology matters in scienceC)Human activities have serious effects on EarthD)Politics interferes with serious scientific debate翻译1.Wearing a seat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.2.

Reading Comprehension ( 40 points)Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 4 passages inthis part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1 Questions 56—60 are based on the following’passage •It is only a shiny, yellow metal, but it is one of the most valuable metals on earth. Since the beginning of time, men have looked for this extremely valuable item, gold.Gold is soft and easy to form into different objects. If it gets wet, it doesnot rust like iron or other metals. Acids do not change it. One important reasonthat gold is so valuable is that it is scarce.Due to its softness, gold must be combined with other metals to harden it andgive it strength. By hardening gold, people can then make coins and jewelry with it. Metals commonly mixed with gold are nickel, platinum, and copper. Gold jewelry bears a number and the letter K. The K means karat (carat), which is a measure of the amount of pure gold in the jewelry. Pure gold is 24K. Therefore,a necklace which is 14K is fourteen parts gold and ten parts other metal.Many countries utilize gold for certain coins, but this practice is not ascommon now as it once was. The United States, for instance, stopped making gold coins in 1933.56. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. A Valuable MetalB. Looking for GoldC. Jewelry and CoinsD. What is Karat?57. Which is NOT the reason why gold is highly valuable? ’A. It can be made into jewelry.B. It is not easily found.C. It is soft and shiny.D. It does not rust when wet.58. In order to make it stronger, gold is often mixed with_____.A. hard goldB. coin and jewelryC. acidsD. other metals59.

Gold may be correctly described by the following EXCEPT ____.A. softB. strongC. acid-resistantD. brightPassage 2 Questions 61—65 are based on the following passageA sustainable transportation system is one that is safe» capable and friendly to the environment. Sustainable transportation is about combining economic, social and environmental factors into decisions that affect transportation activity. In economic aspect, we need a transportation system that is efficient. In social aspect, our transportation system must be safe and easy to be reached. In addition, we need a transportation system that respects the natural environment.It is not always easy to balance these three factors but there are alsowin-win-win opportunities.Sustainable transportation is important. Although transportation brings many economic and social benefits, the movement of people and goods can have important influences on the environment. These influences can in turn havesocial and economic consequences. Sustainable transportation calls for ensuring that the environment is considered along with economic and social considerationsin transportation decision-making.Environmental influences of transportation include air and water pollution, greenhouse effects, and the use of land and other natural resources, A range of transportation activities contribute to these pressures, including theconstruction of roads> the production, operation, and throwing away of vehicles} and the supply of energy and fuel.A major challenge of sustainable transportation is to control or prevent airpollution and greenhouse effects.61. What is the main idea of the passage?A. It is about sustainable transportation.B. It is about greenhouse effects.C. It is about environment protection.D. It is about air pollution.62. A sustainable transportation system can be understood as one that___.A. brings social benefitsB. brings economic benefitsC. is friendly to the environmentD. brings a win-win-win result63. How should we understand the social benefits of a sustainable transportation system?A. It should be efficient.B. It should be safe.C. It should be friendly.D. It should be constructive.64.

The author’s attitude towards the sustainable transportation is______.A. positiveB. criticalC. negativeD. doubtfulPassage 3 Questions 66—70 are based on the following passageAccording to psychologists, an emotion is aroused when a man or animal views something as either bad or good. When a person feels like running away from something he thinks will hurt him» we call this emotion fear. If the person wants to remove the danger by attacking it< we call the emotion anger. The emotions of joy and love are aroused when we think something can help us. An emotion does not have to be created by something in the outside world. It can be created by a person’s thoughts.Everyone has emotions. Many psychologists believe that infants are born without emotions. They believe children learn emotions just as they learn to read and write. A growing child not only learns his emotions but learns how to act incertain situations because of an emotion.Psychologists think that there are two types of emotions: positive and negative. Positive emotions include love, liking, joy, delight and hope. They are arousedby something that appeals to a person. Negative emotions make a person unhappy or dissatisfied. They include anger, fear, despair, sadness and disgust. Ingrowing up, a person learns to cope with the negative emotions in order to be happy.Emotions may be weak or strong. Some strong emotions are so unpleasant that a person will try any means to escape from them. In order to feel happy, theperson may choose unusual ways to avoid the emotion. Strong emotions can make it hard to think and to solve problems. They may prevent a person from learning or paying attention to what he is doing. For example, a student taking an examination may be so worried about failing that he cannot think properly. The worry drains valuable mental energy he needs for the examination.66. We learn from the passage that an emotion is created by something _____.A. one thinks bad or goodB. one feels in dangerC. one faces in the outside worldD. one tries to escape from real life67. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Children learn emotions as they grow up.B. Babies are born with emotions.C. Emotions fall into two types in general.D. People can cope with the negative emotions in life.68. The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to_____.A. explain why people have emotionsB. show how people avoid the negative emotionsC. explain what people should do before emotionsD. define and classify people’s emotions69. We can safely conclude that a student may fail’in anexaittif_A. he can not think properlyB. he can’t pay attention to itC. he is not worriedD. he is not full of energy70. As used in the last sentence, the word "drains" probably meansA. helpsB. tiesC. weakensD. strengthensPassage 4 Questions 71—75 are based on the following passageA gloomy afternoon saw me taking my routine path through that construction site. For the walker’s convenience, a set of stone steps had been built* which were fairly steep. That was the place I found myself behind a husband and wife climbing up the steps with each other’s support.The couple seemed to be farmers in their forties. The wife in a red coat was walking with a stick, an empty trouser leg swaying below. With one hand on his shoulder, she leaned almost entirely on her husband* who carefully kept balance with her and carried her other stick. They limped (6W) their way upward withgreat difficulty. My curiosity urged me to overtake them and look back over my shoulder secretly. The glance sent a shiver through me» which produced a sensation I had never experienced before. The husband himself was also disabled —blind in both eyes! What struck me even more was the smile they both wore on their faces, such a happy smile as could only be seen from brides and bridegrooms. With few words between them, they smilingly helped each other struggle upwards.Then I noticed there were patches on their clothes, and their cloth shoes were homemade, worn-out but tidy. How could such sweet smiles reconcile with the patched clothing or the physical handicap? I got quite puzzled. When they advanced far ahead I still couldn’ t tear my eyes away from them, I was movedand my heart filled with admiration.At that moment I suddenly realized how superficial my idea of happiness hadbeen! To me it had always been associated with wealth, fame and power, the poor and the lowly having no share of it. However, happiness can be found in very ordinary life. I witnessed it on the weather-beaten faces of the husband andwife who had shared happiness and misfortune together. There is always happiness when there is an unfailing mutual support between two persons in love. -;71. How did the husband and wife climb up the steps?A. They didn’t help each other.B.

It was on a set of stone steps that I found myself behind a husband and wife.B. The husband and wife kept talking about something.C. They both wore smiles on their faces because they were bride and bridegroom.D. Their cloth shoes were homemade and very dirty.75. What is the theme of the passage?A.

On the other hand, there are disadvantages for traveling by train. In most cases the crowded train makes us uncomfortable. Sometimes it is rather difficult to get a train ticket.As far as I am concerned, I prefer to travel by train. The reason is that I can spend less money and get in close touch with ordinary people on the train.。

Choose the ONE answer that best completes each sentence.Passage 1Writing, as a career, offers a range of personal rewards. It enables people to express themselves, as well as to entertain, inform, and influence others. With only a few tools—paper, a typewriter, a pencil, and often a personal computer—a writer can have an impact on the surrounding world. But most authors spend hundreds of hours perfecting their skills before they can sell any of their works.A person who wants to be a writer should set aside some time to write every day. Learning to express ideas clearly and effectively in writing takes a great deal of practice. Many experienced writers keep a journal. A journal can serve as a storehouse for information, observations, and ideas. It canalso be a place to develop new material.Beginning writers should read many kinds of writing encountered every day and pay special attention to what they find most interesting. News items, feature stories, textbooks,cookbooks, repair manuals, poems, essays, short stories, novels, and plays differ in their methods of organizing and presenting material. A beginning writer who reads widely and carefullywill develop an appreciation of different writing approachesand styles. In time, the writer can acquire a more flexible approach to his or her own work.Successful authors write about subjects they know and understand. They sometimes take weeks or months revising or refining an article, poem, or story. Beginning writers usually benefit from finding one or more friendly critics who will read their work and discuss its strengths and weaknesses with them.High schools and colleges offer many learning opportunitiesfor young writers. Composition and literature courses can be helpful. Creative writing and journalism courses may further assist a beginning writer in developing his or her skills. Many students work on literary magazines, newspapers, or yearbooks published by their schools. They may write stories, edit articles, or gain other valuable experience.21. How important is writing according to this passage?A. People learn a lot from writing.B. We are entertained with different writings.?C. Writing can influence the surrounding world.D. Books can be an important part of an industry.22. What does a journal NOT help to provide A. Service. B. Ideas. C. Observations. D. Information.23. What should a beginning writer do to enjoy different writing styles?A. Reading different kinds of news items.B. Studying different writing methods.C. Learning the ways to present materials.D. Carefully reading as much as possible.24. Which of the following should a beginning writer avoid in order to improve his or her writing?A. Developing new subjects.B. Finding helpful critics.C. Attending writing courses.D. Doing editing work.25. In developing students’ writing ability, which of the following is not mentioned by the authorA. They can take composition and literature courses.B. They can take writing and journalism courses.C. They may work on literary magazines, newspapers, or yearbooks published by theirschools.D. They may write stories or edit articles for professional journals.Passage 2The first day of university our professor introduced a new student who appears to be very different from the rest of us. That is Rose, an eighty-seven-year-old lady who always wore a big smile on her face.“Why are you in college at this age” I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me.Over the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she enjoyed being the center of attention from the other students. She was living it up!At the end of the semester, we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. She was introduced and stepped up to the stage.As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her speech cards on the floor. Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into the speaker and simply said, “I’m sorry I’m a bit nervous. I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me!”As we laughed Rose cleared her throat and began, “We do not stop laughing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it!Have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we didn’t do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets.Finally, there is a huge difference between growing old and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn twenty. This is growing old, by doing nothing to your life. The idea of growing up is to always find opportunity to change.”At the year’s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago.

That’s what all our friends called us when we first married.I guess Don and I deserved it. Money was tight. Sometimes we’d have to save up days just for an ice cream cone. Still, our tiny apartment seemed like paradise. Love does that, you know.The more we heard the term “lovebirds”, the more we thought about birds. One day we started saving up for a couple of lovebirds of our own. We knew we couldn’t afford to buy both birds and a nice cage, so in his spare moments, Don made the cage himself.We put our cage in front of a shaded window. Then we waited until our little saving was full of bills and spare change. With that money we “adopted” a pair of canaries from ourlocal pet store, a male and a female, and named them Sunshine and Snowball.Time passed, and when our young lovebirds finally seemed mature enough to start a family of their own, we went ahead and prepared a nest area and lots of nesting material for them. Snowball was a very exacting wife in designing and decorating their nest just so, while Sunshine, filled with love, bent over backward to put everything just where she ordered.Then one day an egg appeared. How they sang! And a few weeks later when a tiny chick hatched, their happiness seemed to know no bounds. I don’t know how it happened, but that baby bird was bright orange. So right off we named him Punkinhead.The sunny days passed. How proud all of us were when our baby bird ran out of the nest onto a real grown-up perch!Then one day, Punkinhead suddenly fell head down to the bottom of the cage. The tiny orange bird just lay there, both parents and I rushed to his rescue.But he was dead. Just like that. Whether he’d had a heart attack before he fell or broke his neck in the fall, I’ll never know. But Punkinhead was gone.The mother bird refused to let either Sunshine or me get near that little body. Instead of the joyful melodies I usually heard from Snowball, now she gave only the most heartbreaking cries and moans. Her heart, joy and will seemed completely melted by her sorrow.Poor Sunshine didn’t know what to do. He kept trying to push Snowball away from her sad situation, but she refused to move. Instead, over and over she kept trying to wake up her beloved child.Finally Sunshine seemed to work out a plan. He convinced her to fly up and eat some seeds every so often, while he stood duty in her place. Then each time she left, he’d quietly placeone piece of straw over Punkinhead’s body. Just one. But in a few days, piece by piece, it was completely covered over.At first Snowball seemed panic when she looked around, but she didn’t try to uncover the chick. Instead, she flew up to her normal place and stayed there. Then I was able to quietly reach in and remove the little body.After that, Sunshine spent all his time comforting Snowball. Eventually she started making normal sounds, and then one day, her sorrow finally melted and she sang again. I don’t know if Snowball ever realized the quiet labor of love and healing Sunshine had done for her. But they remained devoted for as long as they both lived. Love does that, you know.31.The title of the passage is “When Snowball Melted”. What does the title mean?A. The increasing temperature made the snowball melt.B. The bird called Snowball was too sad for her kid’s death so she became weaker and weaker.C. The grief born by the bird called Snowball for the death of her kid was dissolved by her husband’s love.D. The bird called Snowball was loved by her husband so it seemed like a snowball was melted.32. Why did “our tiny apartment seemed like paradise” even though we were poorA. Because we love our tiny apartment.B. Because the tiny apartment housed a couple in love.C. Because we kept two birds in love in the tiny apartment.D. Because our tiny apartment was clean and cozy.33. In paragraph 4, why does the author use “‘adopted’ a pair of canaries from our local pet store” instead of the word “buy”A. “Adopted” is used here to show that the birds are deserted by the store so the couple adopted them.B. “Adopted” is used here to show the couple’s love for the birds, while the word “buy” seemed to be cold and emotionless.C. “Adopted” is used here to show that nobody wanted thebirds so the couple were the only one who bought them.D. there is no special reason why “adopted” is used here.34. What is the cause of Punkinhead’s death?A. He’d had a heart attack before he fell.B. He broke his neck in the fall.C. He was attacked by a cat.D. the cause of Punkinhead’s death is unknown.35. Which of the following things were NOT what Sunshine did to comfort Snowball after the death of their kid A. He kept trying to push Snowball away from her sad situation.B. He flew up to her normal place and stayed there.C. He convinced her to fly up and eat some seeds every so often, while he stood duty in her place.D. each time she left, he’d quietly place one piece ofstraw over Punkinhead’s body.Passage 4They say there are three apples that changed the world.The first apple belongs to Adam, from the Garden of Eden. Yes, according to Christians, it was Adam’s apple that firstchanged humankind — the act of man disobeying to higher power that sets us apart by God. Adam’s story teaches us the importance of submission.We are becoming more self-sustained and forget the cores oflife — love, joy and peace. Families, friends and our beloved ones are often neglected when we become self-centered in ourjobs and responsibilities. We need to be reminded to love andbe loved, stand firm in love and cherish the goodness of other people in our lives.The second most influential apple didn’t come until the 15th Century. A man sat under the famous apple tree and theuniverse-consigned apple fell right on his head, leading him to the famous law of universal gravitation.Sir Isaac Newton’s apple changed the world of science as well as mathematics by stating that “every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force directed along the line of centers for the two objects...” and so on.The point here is, Newton’s apple has not only inspired him to come up with the law of gravitation, but also encouraged human to dream big and to explore the world with imaginations. Many other great people arose from Newton’s great works and findings.Last but bot least, it is of course Steve Jobs’ Apple that has put the world on a different pace, in terms of his innovations in consumer electronics, computer software and personal computers.Jobs’ success stories took up each corner of Google’s page after he passed away. The highlight is none other than his return to Apple after being kicked out of his own company in 1997. When he tried to lure John Sculley as Apple’s CEO, he asked,”Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want to change the world”That obviously worked out pretty well. Yet, it was thepassion towards innovation that Jobs has injected into hiscareer that put him onto the top of the world. His life has definitely inspired many to contribute to the society through creativity.So here are three apples that changed our lives — three menat three totally different time of the history. How’s yourapple coming along36. What are NOT the cores of life according to the textA. faithB. joyC. peaceD. love37. Who are the ones we often neglected when we become self-centered in our jobs andresponsibilities A. Families. B.Friends.C. Our beloved ones.D. A, B and C38. Which of the following statement are NOT one of the influences brought by Newton’s appleA. Newton’s apple inspired Newton to come up with the law of gravitation.B. Newton’s apple reminded human to love and be loved, stand firm in love and cherish the goodness of other people in our lives.C. Newton’s apple encouraged human to dream big.D. Newton’s apple encouraged human to explore the world with imagination.39 Steve Jobs’ innovations are in the following fields but?A. Consumer electronics.B. Computer software.C. Personal computer.D. Telecommunication.40. According to the author, what put Steve Jobs onto the top of the worldA. His great success in the Apple products.B. He returned to Apple after being kicked out of his own company in 1997.C. His passion towards innovation in his career.D. He changed the world.III.

was what the notice just inside the entrance promised.It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods.This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs.Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer.Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping.The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need.Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed.She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lucky Day.Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea.She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk.As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her.“Madam,”he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!”61.The housewives learnt about the of free goods _______.A.on TVB.from the managerC.at the supermarketD.from the newspaper62.Mrs.Edwards ________.A.is always very luckyB.had no friendsC.hoped to get free shoppingD.gets disappointed easily63.Mrs.Edwards’s husband tried to ________.A.make her unhappyB.cheer her upC.buy things with herD.stop her buying things64.Mrs.Edwards went back to the supermarket quickly because she had to _______.A.buy another thingB.talk to the managerC.pay for her shoppingD.find her shopping65.Mrs.Edwards must have been ________.A.pleasedB.delightedC.proudD.disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East.Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea.It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake.The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation.The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain.Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,”many Indian artisfacts have been found.Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905.In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground.He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors.More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found.Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66.The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.part of a historical cave systemthe biggest underground lake in the worldlisted in the Guinness Book of World Recordsthe largest body of water in Tennessee67.The Craighead Caverns have been known ________.A.through historyB.since the time of the Indian nationsC.since 1905D.since divers explored them68.Who located the Lost Sea in recent times?A.The Cherokee Indians.B.Tourists.C.Ben Sands.D.Scientists.69.What was found in “The Council Room”?A.A small natural opening.B.A large cave.C.Another series of rooms.D.Many old Indian objects.70.It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as ____.A.an underground testing siteB.an Indian meeting groundC.a tourist attractionD.a motor boat race coursePassage ThreeGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials.Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure.So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast.Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast.“Going without breakfast does not affect performance,”said Arrold E.Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most ofthe recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr.Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”.71.The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A.the year the author wrote the articleB.1977C.any year between 1997 and 1983D.198372.For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.several studies have been done in the past few yearsthe omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthadults have especially made studies in this fieldeating little in the morning is good for health73.“…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance”means ______.anyone without breakfast does improve his performancenot giving people breakfast improve performancehaving breakfast does not improve performance, eitherpeople having breakfast do improve their performance74.The word “literature”in the last sentence refers to _______.A.stories, poems, plays, etc.B.written works on a particular subjectC.any printed materialD.the modern literature of America75.What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.breakfast does not affect performanceDr.Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learningnot eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenProfessor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in LondonPassage FourAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning.The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university.These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree.Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one.Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school.Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive.Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships.Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school.Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs.Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time.Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy social activities.Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular.However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.76.College education is _______ in America.A.quite commonB.very rareC.something difficultD.almost impossible77.Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A.entrance examinationsB.taking part in many activitiesC.GPAD.college prep classes78.How can poor students attend private schools?A.Only by working at part-time jobs.B.Only by working at full-time jobs.C.Only by earning scholarships.D.All of above.79.The American college students like to _______ most of all.A.discuss problems on philosophyB.play ballsC.earn enough moneyD.go to the cinemas or theatres80.The best title for this passage is _______.A.Part-time jobsB.American collegeC.Popular activityD.A

transportation.What’s more, we need it to live a better life.In short, we should learn the value of money and make the most of its advantages.。

Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions:There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage OneTelevision in the United States is free. To pay for programs, there are many advertisements. Often these advertisements are short plays with actors. The following television advertisement is like many others that Americans see daily.We see a man and his wife at the breakfast table. They have been married for a long time. They are not speaking to each other. They haven’t spoken to each other at the breakfast table for years.The husband is reading his newspaper.We can’t see his face.The wife looks very bored as she pours a cup of coffee for him. Today, she is using a new kind of coffee for the first time. The husband picks up his cup. He isn’t very interested. He tastes his coffee. Suddenly he puts down his newspaper. Something i s different! Can it be the coffee? He takes another taste. It’s wonderful! He smiles. He looks at his wife and says in amazement,"Doris, when did you cut your hair?"Doris is pleased. She answers, "Two months ago."Doris asks, "Herbie, when did your hair begin to turn gray?"He replies, "A long time ago."Doris says, "Oh, very handsome."Now they aren’t bored any more. Breakfast is different. Has a new kind of coffee changed their lives?（）36. In the television advertisement, Doris looks bored because _____.A. she doesn’t like the breakfast that morningB. she has been married to Herbie for a long timeC. Her husband doesn’t care much for herD. Herbie isn’t interested in the breakfast she cooks（）37.The TV advertisement wants to tell the viewers _____.A. to have an immediate try at the new coffeeB. to have a good laugh at the good coupleC. that a nice breakfast must go with nice coffeeD. that advertisements can certainly increase goods production（）38.What does the author mean by saying the last sentence?A. What kind of coffee can change people’s lives?B. How can a new kind of coffee change people’s lives?C. Nice coffee can change one’s life.D. A new kind of coffee costs quite a lot.（）39.This text is mainly about _____.A. who pays for TV programs in the United StatesB. what a TV advertisement is usually like in the USAC. why long married couples dislike speaking to each otherD. what made Herbie and Doris not bored any morePassage TwoFrom early times, man has been interested in art.People have often worked together to collect and save the world’s art treasures.Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre in Paris, France.The works of art have been collected by the people of France over many centuries.It is the biggest art museum in the world.The Louvre has not always been a museum. The first building was a castle.In 1190, it was the king’s castle with high walls and a round tower.It had a river to keep out the enemies.Over the years, the number of the buildings around the castle grew.By 1350, the castle no longer needed to be extended.The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.During times of peace, new treasures were brought in.During the days of war, many treasures were stolen, and the buildings, were damaged.When FrancisI became king of France in 1515, he brought in many artists from other countries.One of the artists was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy.Da Vinci’s "Mona L isa" is the best-known painting in the museum today.In 1793, the Louvre became a public museum, just as it is now.It is a place where art treasures are kept for everyone to enjoy, Every year millions of people from all over the world come to the Louvre to see the masterpieces.（）40.How long has the Louvre been a public museum?A.For over 800 years.B.Since 1350C.Since 1515D.For over 200 years.（）41.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A.Da Vinci once stayed in France.B."Mona Lisa" is kept in the Louvre.C.The Louvre was once a church as well as a palace.D.The Louvre is a place of interest to different people from all over the world.（）42.We know from the passage that _____.A.French kings and queens ordered people to build another buildings as their palace home in 1350B.many treasures were brought into the Louvre in 1190C.FrancisI came into power in 1515 and damaged some buildingsD.Some works of art in the museum have been collected from many countries（）43.The passage is mainly about _____.A.an art museum called the LouvreB.an Italian artist named Leonardo da VinciC.a king of France named Francis ID.the best-known painting in the Louvre Passage ThreeOn the first day of class, Mr. Whiteson gave us a lecture about a creature(生物) called cattytiger, a kind of cat-like animal that completely disappeared during the Ice Age.He passed round a skull (头骨) as he talked, and we all felt interested and took notes while ter, we had a test about that.When he returned my paper, I was very, very surprised.There was a very large cross through each of my answers.And so it was with everyone else’s in our class.What had happened? Everyone was wondering and couldn’t wait to get the answer.Very simple, Mr. Whiteson explained.He had made up all that story about the cattytiger.There had never been such an animal.So why none of us noticed that and how could we expect good marks for the incorrect answers?Needless to say, we got very angry.What kind of teacher was this?We should have guessed it out, Mr. Whiteson said.After all, at the very moment he was passingaround the cattytiger skull (in fact, a cat’s), hadn’t he been telling us that it completely disappear ed during the Ice Age? Clearly he was telling a lie.But we just kept busy making notes and none used his head.We should learn something from this.Teachers and textbooks are not always correct.（）44.We failed in the test because we didn’t _____.A.take notes while listeningB.show interest in what Mr. Whiteson saidC.listen to the teacher carefullyD.think carefully（）45.We got angry because _____.A.Mr. Whiteson didn’t tell us the truth about cattytigerB.we failed in the testC.we didn’t know why he played the joke on usD.there was no cattytiger（）46.Mr. Whiteson gave us a special lesson_____ .A.to show his special way of teachingB.to play a joke on usC.to help us learn our lessons betterD.so that we would no longer believe him（）47.Mr. Whiteson meant that _____.A.teachers couldn’t make any mistakesB.textbooks might be wrong sometimesC.we should speak up if we thought our teacher or the textbook was wrongD.we shouldn’t believe our teachers because sometimes they might tell liesPassage FourShopping is not as simple as you may think！There are all sorts of tricks at play each time we reach out for that particular brand （品牌）of product on the shelf.Colouring,for example.,varies according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packaged （包装）in greens,yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colours. Ice cream packets are often blue and expensive goods,like chocolates,are gold or silver.When some kind of pain killer was brought out recently,researchers found that the colours turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective. Eventually.,it came on the market in a dark blue and white package—blue because we think of it as safe,and white as calm.The size of a product can attract a shopper. But quite often a bottle doesn’t contain as much as it appears to.It is believed that the better-known companies spend,on average,70 percent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging！The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The founder of Pears soap,who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to promote （推销）their goods,came to the conclusion：“Any fool can make soap,but it takes a genius （天才）t o sell it.”（）48. Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text？A. The cost of its package.B. The price of the product.C. The colour of its package.D. The brand name of the product.（）49. The underlined part“the colours turned the customers off”（in Para. 3 ）means that the colours _____.A. attracted the customers stronglyB. had weak effects on the customersC.tricked the customers into shoppingD. caused the customers to lose interest（）50. Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales？A. The way to promote goods.B.The discovery of a genius.C. The team to produce a good product.D. The brand name used by successful producers. （）51. Which of the following would be the best title for this text？A. Choice of Good ProductsB.Disadvantages of ProductsC. Effect of Packaging on ShoppingD. Brand Names and Shopping TricksPassage FiveHave you ever argued with your loved ones over simple misunderstandings(误解)？Little wonder. We often believe we’re more skillful in getting our point across than we actually are，according to Boza Keysar，a professor at the University of Chicago. In his recent study，speakers tried to express their meanings using unclear sentences. Speakers who thought listeners understood were wrong nearly half the time. Here’s some good advice to reduce misunderstanding：(1)Don’t trust what you see from the listener. Listeners often nod，look at you or say"uhhuh"to be polite or move the conversation along. But it’s easy to consider these as signs of understanding.(2)Train the editor(编辑)in your head. If you say，"Beth discusses her problems with her husband，"it’s not clear whether she’s talking to her husband or about him. Try instead，"Beth talks to her husband about her problems."or"Beth talks to others about the problems with her husband."(3)Ask listeners to repeat your message. Introduce your request by saying"I want to be sure I said that right."Questions like"How does that sound？"or"Does that make sense？"may also work. (4)Listen well. When on the receiving end，ask questions to be sure you’re on the same page. After all，it isn’t just the speaker’s job to make his speech understood.（）52. Why does the writer give us the advice？A.We’re not skillful enough to make clear sentences.B.Misunderstanding is damaging our normal lives.C. Misunderstanding occurs now and then.D.It’s impolite to say NO to others.（）53. The writer suggests that when talking to others，the speaker should _____.A. know that listeners will show him that they understand his wordsB.express himself clearly even when he sees signs of understandingC. notice listener’s signs of understandingD.look directly into his listener’s eyes（）54. By Train the editor in your head，the speakers are advised _____.A. to get themselves trained by a good editorB. to discuss problems with their husbands or wivesC. to express themselves in long but simple sentencesD.to make sure each sentence has only one meaning（）55. In the last paragraph，the underlined words you’re on the same page mean that _____.A. you’re following the speakers closelyB. you’re reading the same page as the speaker doesC.you should know which page the speaker refers toD. your story is written on the same page as the speaker’sV.Daily Conversation (15 points)Direction:Pick out five appropriate expression from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.See you this eveningB.I’ve gotta runC.See you againD.won’t be back for supperE.I’ll go to the officeF.Take careG.Don’t worryH.I’ll just take the subway Gary:Dear,I have to go to the office early today.Can you take Sally to school?Ada:Sure.Want me to give you a ride?Gary:No,forget it. 56 .It’s very quick.I’ll pick Sally up this afternoon.You can just comehome after work.Ada:OK.Oh,I almost forgot.I probably 57 .I’ve made an evening appoin tment with Mr.Stevento talk about our next project.Gary:Oh,I see. 58 .Hurry Sally up a little.She hasn’t even had her breakfast yet.Ada:OK. 59 .Love you,honey.Gary:I love you,too. 60 .Directons:For this part, you are supposed to write a composition of about100~200 words according to the following topic.Where to Live—in the City or in the Country？Base your composition on the outline given below.61、（1）. 一些人喜欢住在城市，因为城市生活有许多便利。

You find these careers in engineering, in production, in statistical work, and in teaching. But there is an increasing demand for people who are able to take in great area at a glance, people who perhaps do not know too much about any one field. There is, in other words, a demand for people who are capable of seeing the forest rather than the trees, of making general judgments. We can call these people “generalists.”And these “generalists”are particularly needed for positions in administration, where it is their job to see that other people do the work, where they have to plan for other people, to organize other people’s work, to begin it and judge it. The specialist understands one field, his concern is with technique and tools. He is a “trained” man, and his educational background is properly technical or professional. The generalist—and especially the administrator—deals with people; his concern is with leadership, with planning, and with direction giving. He is an “educated” man; and the humanities are his strongest foundation. Very rarely is a specialist capable of being an administrator. And very rarely is a good generalist also a good specialist in particular field. Any organization needs both kinds of people, though different organizations need them in different proportions. It is your task to find out, during your training period, into which of the two kinds of jobs you fit, and to plan your career accordingly. Your first job may turn out to be the right job for you—but this is pure accident. Certainly you should not change jobs constantly or people will become suspicious of your ability to hold any job. At the same time you must not look upon the first job as the final job; it is primarily a training job, an opportunity to understand yourself and your fitness for being an employee.16．There is an increasing demand for______.A．all round people in their own fieldsB．people whose job is to organize other people’s workC．generalists whose educational background is either technical or professional D．specialists whose chief concern is to provide administrative guidance to others 正确答案：B17．The specialist is______.A．a man whose job is to train other peopleB．a man who has been trained in more than one fieldsC．a man who can see the forest rather than the treesD．a man whose concern is mainly with technical or professional matters18．The administrator is______.A．a “trained” man who is more a specialist than a generalistB．a man who sees the trees as well as the forestC．a man who is very strong in the humanitiesD．a man who is an “educated” specialist正确答案：C19．During your training period, it is important______A．to try to be a generalistB．to choose a profitable jobC．to find an organization which fits youD．to decide whether you are fit to be a specialist or a generalist正确答案：D20．A man’s first job______A．is never the right job for himB．should not be regarded as his final jobC．should not be changed or people will become suspicious of his ability to hold any jobD．is primarily an opportunity to fit himself for his final job正确答案：BAt the bottom of the world lies a mighty continent still wrapped in the Ice Age and, until recent times, unknown to man. It is a great land mass with mountain ranges whose extent and elevation are still uncertain. Much of the continent is a complete blank on our maps. Man has explored, on foot, less than one percent of its area. Antarctica differs fundamentally from the Arctic regions. The Arctic is an ocean, covered with drifting packed ice and hemmed in by the land masses of Europe, Asia, and North America. The Antarctic is a continent almost as large as Europe and Australia combined, centered roughly on the South Pole and surrounded by the most unobstructed water areas of the world—the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. The continental ice sheet is more than two miles high in its centre, thus, the air over the Antarctic is far more refrigerated than it is over the Arctic regions. This cold air current from the land is so forceful that it makes the nearby seas the stormiest in the world and renders unlivable those regions whose counterparts at the opposite end of the globe are inhabited. Thus, more than a million of persons live within 2,000 miles of the North Pole in an area that includes most of Alaska, Siberia, and Scandinavia—a region rich in forest and mining industries. Apart from a handful of weather stations, within the same distance of the South Pole there is not a single tree, industry, orsettlement.21．The best title for this selection would be______.A．IcelandB．Land of OpportunityC．The Unknown ContinentD．Utopia at Last正确答案：C22．At the time this article was written, our knowledge of Antarctica was______ A．very limitedB．vastC．fairly richD．nonexistent正确答案：A23．Antarctica is bordered by the______.A．Pacific OceanB．Indian OceanC．Atlantic OceanD．All three正确答案：D24．The Antarctic is made uninhabitable primarily by______.A．cold airB．calm seasC．iceD．lack of knowledge about the continent正确答案：A25．According to this article______.A．2,000 people live on the Antarctic ContinentB．a million people live within 2,000 miles of the South PoleC．weather conditions within a 2, 000 mile radius of the South Pole make settlements impracticalD．only a handful of natives inhabit Antarctica正确答案：CFor centuries men dreamed of achieving vertical flight. In 400 A. D. Chinese children played with a fan-like toy that spun upwards and fell back to earth as rotation ceased. Leonardo da Vinci conceive the first mechanical apparatus, called a “Helix,”which could carry man straight up, but was only a design and was never tested. The ancient-dream was finally realized in 1940 when a Russian engineer piloted a strange looking craft of steel tubing with a rotating fan on top. It rose awkwardly and vertically into the air from a standing start, hovered a few feet above the ground, went sideways and backwards, and then settled back to earth. The vehicle was called a helicopter. Imaginations were fired. Men dreamed of going to work in their own personal helicopters. People anticipate that vertical flight transports would carry millions of passengers as do the airliners of today. Such fantastic expectations were not fulfilled. The helicopter has now become an extremely useful machine. It excels in military missions, carrying troops, guns and strategic instruments where other aircraft cannot go. Corporations use them as airborne offices, many metropolitan areas use them in police work, construction and logging companies employ them in various advantageous ways, engineers use them for site selection and surveying, and oil companies use them as the best way to make offshore and remote work stations accessible to crews and supplies. Any urgent mission to a hard-to-get-to place is a likely task for a helicopter. Among their other multitude of uses: deliver people across town, fly to and from airports, assist in rescue work, and aid in the search for missing or wanted persons.26．People expect that______.A．the airliners of today would eventually be replaced by helicoptersB．helicopters would someday be able to transport large number of people from place to place as airliners are now doingC．the imaginations fired by the Russian engineer’s invention would become a reality in the futureD．their fantastic expectations about helicopters could be fulfilled by airliners of today正确答案：B27．Helicopters work with the aid of______.A．a combination of rotating devices in front and on topB．a rotating device topsideC．one rotating fan in the center of the aircraft and others at each endD．a rotating fan underneath for lifting正确答案：B28．What is said about the development of the helicopter?A．Helicopters have only been worked on by man since 1940.B．Chinese children were the first to achieve flight in helicopters.C．Helicopters were considered more dangerous than the early airplanes.D．Some people thought they would become widely used by average individuals.正确答案：D29．How has the use of helicopters developed?A．They have been widely used for various purposes.B．They are taking the place of high-flying jets.C．They are used for rescue work.D．They are now used exclusively for commercial projects.正确答案：A30．Under what conditions are helicopters found to be absolutely essential?A．For overseas passenger transportation.B．For extremely high altitude flights.C．For high-speed transportation.D．For urgent mission to places inaccessible to other kinds of craft.正确答案：DIn ancient Greece athletic festivals were very important and had strong religious associations. The Olympian athletic festival was held every four years in honor of Zeus, king of the Olympian Gods, eventually lost its local character, became first a national event and then, after the rules against foreign competitors had been abolished, international. No one knows exactly how far back the Olympic Games go, But some official records date from 776 B. C. The games took place in August on the plain by Mount Olympus. Many thousands of spectators gathered from all parts of Greece, but no married woman was admitted even as a spectator. Slaves, women and dishonored persons were not allowed to compete. The exact sequence of events uncertain, but events included boy’s gymnastics, boxing, wrestling, horse racing and field events, though there were fewer sports involved than in the modern Olympic Games. On the last day of the Games, all the winners were honored by having a ring of holy olive leaves placed on their heads. So great was the honor that the winner of the foot race gave his name to the year of his victory. Although Olympic winners received no prize money, they were, in fact, richly rewarded by their state authorities. How their results compared with modern standards, we unfortunately have no means of telling. After an uninterrupted history of almost 1,200 years, the Games were suspended by the Romans in 394 A. D. They continued for such a long time because people believed in the philosophy behind the Olympics: the idea that a healthy body produced a healthy mind, and that the spirit of competition in sports and games was preferable to the competition that caused wars. It was over 1, 500 years before another such international athletic gathering took place in Athens in 1896. Nowadays, theGames are held in different countries in turn. The host country provides vast facilities, including a stadium, swimming pools and living accommodation, but competing countries pay their own athletes’ expenses. The Olympics start with the arrival in the stadium of a torch, lighted on Mount Olympus by the sun’s rays. It is carried by a succession of runners to the stadium. The torch symbolized the continuation of the ancient Greek athletic ideals, and it burns throughout the Games until the closing ceremony. The well-known Olympic flag, however, is a modern conception: the five interlocking rings symbolize the uniting of all five continents participating in the Games.31．In ancient Greece, the Olympic Games______.A．were merely national athletic festivalsB．were in the nature of a national event with a strong religious colourC．had rules which put foreign participants in a disadvantageous positionD．were primarily national events with few foreign participants正确答案：C32．In the early days of ancient Olympic Games______.A．only male Greek athletes were allowed to participate in the gamesB．all Greeks, irrespective of sex, religion or social status, were allowed to take partC．all Greeks, with the exception of women, were allowed to compete in Games D．all male Greeks were qualified to compete in the Games正确答案：A33．The order of athletic events at the ancient Olympics______.A．has not definitely been establishedB．varied according to the number of foreign competitorsC．was decided by Zeus, in whose honor the Games were heldD．was considered unimportant正确答案：A34．Modern athletes’ results cannot be compared with those of ancient runners because______.A．the Greeks had no means of recording the resultsB．they are much betterC．details such as the time were not recorded in the pastD．they are much worse正确答案：C35．Nowadays, the athletes’ expenses are paid for______.A．out of the prize money of the winnersB．out of the funds raised by the competing nationsC．by the athletes themselvesD．by contributions正确答案：BYouth unemployment in industrial countries has risen in the past decade despite measures aimed at creating jobs for the young, most of which have failed, the organization for Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD)said on June 24, 1999. “Average youth unemployment in the OECD area has risen form 10 percent in 1979 to 13 percent in 1998, and is in double digits in most member countries,” the 29 member organization said in its annual Economic Outlook report. Many countries had introduced special plans aimed at creating jobs for under-24s during that period, but the results were “fairly discouraging”, the report said. Few remedial or employment-insertion programs targeted at disadvantaged young people appear to have resulted in significant gains in employment or earnings after they have participated in the programs. Not all programs were failures, however, and they had provided lessons in “what does and does not work, and why”, the report said. The best key issues are ensuring that the education system prepares young people adequately for the demands of the modern work place and that governments carry out “sustained” efforts to improve work prospects for young people, he said. It was too soon to say whether recent new initiatives in British and France to bring young people into the workforce would be successful, Martin said, but “hopefully” they had learned from the mistakes of previous programs, many of which either failed to create jobs or did not create long-term jobs for the young. The 35-hour week in France, for instance, which the OECD has said repeatedly is not the best way to create jobs, had not been introduced particularly to create jobs for young people, but to cut unemployment generally, he said. There is also “no cause for complacency” when it comes to unemployment in general across the OECD, Martin said. While unemployment is forecast to remain essentially stable through to the end of 2000, at 7.0 percent across the OECD, the same level as in 1999, eight of the 29 members will still have a jobless rate of more than 10 percent, the report said. The report also said that much of the growth in employment in recent years had come from part-time jobs, but they are less well-paid than full time employment. Part-time work defined in the study as less than 30 hours a week-now accounts for 14. 3percent of employment in the OECD’s 29 countries, with the Netherlands heading the list at 30 percent of total employment. Part-time workers generally earn less on an hourly basis than their full-time colleagues and also have less access to training, the OECD report said. Part-time workers in Canada fare the least well, earning on average just 55. 9 percent of the average hourly wage of their full time colleagues, while those in Portugal fare best, with their wages at 90 percent of a full-time employee’s, thestudy found. The problem is unlikely to go away, the OECD said, as part-time work is on the increase and relatively few part-time jobs are transformed into full-time ones. But financial problems are likely to become greater with an increase in the part-time workforce and an aging population as pension and other benefits for part-time workers look set to fall further behind those of their full-time colleagues, the OECD said.36．What is the passage mainly about?正确答案：Youth unemployment in industrial countries. / Youth unemployment is serious in industrial countries.37．What is the average youth unemployment rate in the OECD area in the past 20 years?正确答案：It’s about 10 percent.38．According to the article, many employment-insertion programs had failed. What had people learned from the previous programs?正确答案：Lessons in “what does and does not work, and why”.39．Why did Martin say there is “no cause for complacency” when it comes to unemployment in general across the OECD?正确答案：Because of the high jobless rate and few full-time jobs.40．In what ways are part-time workers inferior to full time workers?正确答案：In earnings and training.Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: that international contests encourage false national ride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred. There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sports encourages international brotherhood.【G1】______ One country received its second place medals with visible indignation after the hockey final. There had been a noisy scene at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were convinced that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair. Their manager was in a rage when he said: “This wasn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federationare finished. 【G2】______ The American basketball team announced that they would not yield first place to Russia, after a disputed end to their contest. The game had ended in disturbance. 【G3】______A Russian player then threw the ball from one end of the court to the other, and another player popped it into the basket. It was the first time the USA had ever lost an Olympic basketball match. An appeal jury debated the matter for four and a half hours before announcing that the result would stand. 【G4】______ Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. 【G5】______But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism.A. The American players then voted not to accept the silver medals.B. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for.C. The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension of the team for at least three years.D. It was thought at first that the United States had won, by a single point, but it was announced that there were three seconds still to play.E. Not only was there the tragic incident involving the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by lesser incidents caused principally by minor national contests.41．【G1】正确答案：E42．【G2】正确答案：C43．【G3】正确答案：D44．【G4】正确答案：A45．【G5】正确答案：BClozeIn the United States, the first day nursery, was opened in 1854.

You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1It is very important to develop a powerful strategy throughout the job hunting process that has three main components: a solid resume format based on your achievements, a dynamic resume cover letter that gets an employer’s attention, and a consistent strategy that binds everything together.FIRS (First Impression Resume Services) offer personallydesigned resume and cover letter strategies and interview training by a Certified Professional ResumeWriter and Certified Employment Interview Professional. Resume samples are classified in “Expert Resumes for Computer and Web Jobs”, “Expert Resumes for Teachers and Educators,” and the upcoming “Expert Resumes for Manufacturing Industry P rofessionals”.After you finish an in-depth interview, your resume format is developed to focus on your career goals, not only on your past job experience. Accomplishments, keywords, and strategic placement of critical information form a dynamic and successful blueprint for your job search (Tip: Search for job-related keywords (nouns) in classified ads in the newspaper or online at job boards). By knowing the right questions to ask, First I mpression can help you look ahead and uncover related information you may have overlooked.We ascribe to a professional Code of Ethics and guarantee prompt, courteous, professional, and ethical services. First Impression offers professional resume writing help, job readiness, and personal support to adults who are in need.61. A good resume design must include _____.A. achievements, cover letter and a consistent strategyB. a solid resume format, grabs an employer's attention; binds everything togetherC. format design, cover design and consistence considerationD. none of the above62. It was most probably that First Impression Resume Services was _____.A. an office that interviews people who are looking for a jobB. an office that gives advice to job-hunting people on how to succeed in getting employedC. an office that interviews people who are looking for a jobD. an office that gives advice to young people who want to start a profession63. What does the office offer?A. A variety of resume samples.B. Interview training.C. Personally designed resumes and cover letter strategies.D. All of the above.64. From the context, we can gue ss that the word “tip” (in paragraph 3) probably means________.A. extremityB. pointC. premiumD. advice65. The office guarantees that _____.A. they will give their services on the basis of the Code of EthicsB. they will give perfect servicesC. they will offer professional help to all kinds of peopleD. all of the abovePassage 2When your parents tell you to “get an education” in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.At least, you need to get a high school diploma, without it, you will be occupationally dead unless your name is GeorgeBernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully drop out in grade school.If possible, get a college degree. With a B.A, you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you study for a master’s degree, make sure it is an MBA, and is famous law of diminishing returns begins to happen. Do you know, for example, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24000. While the full professors can earn just $ 23030.A Ph.D. is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim future. There are more Ph.D.s unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.If you become a doctor of philosophy in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages, or worst of all in philosophy, you have the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands. Thousands of Ph.D.s are driving cars, selling shoes, waiting on table, and filling out applications every month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the doorkeeper earns.You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.66. According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people who ____.A. will not be a disgrace to societyB. will become loyal citizensC. can take care of themselvesD. can meet the na tion’s demands as a source of manpower67. Many PhDs are out of job because _____.A. they are improperly educatedB. they are of little commercial value to their societyC. there are fewer jobs in high schoolsD. they prefer easier jobs that make more money68. The nation is only interested in people _____.A. with diplomasB. who specialize in physics and chemistryC. who are valuable to the gross national productD. both A and C.69. Which of the following is not true?A. Bernard Shaw didn’t finish high schools, nor did Edison.B. One must think carefully before pursuing a master degree.C. The higher your education level, the more money you will earn.D. If you are too well-educated, you’ll be over educated for society’s demands.70. The writer sees education as _____.A. a means of providing job security and financial security and a means of meeting a c ountry’s demands for technical workersB. a way to broaden one’s horizonsC. more important than finding a jobD. an opportunity that everyone should havePassage 3Not all Americans are fit, or even try to be fit. The overallpopulation is becoming heavier, because of bad eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle. Some researches estimate that less than half of Americans exercise in their leisure time. Exper ts say that it is not because Americans “don’t know what’s good f or them”? They just don’t do it. Compared to the beginning of the 1980s, 75% of Americans in the 1990s say that physical fitness is more important to them now than it was then. But the National Center for Health Statistics reports that the number of people who are at least 20% over their desirable weight has risen from one in four to one in three Americans.Full of information on nutrition and proper diet is on newspapers and magazines. Television news programs urge people to eat more vegetables and warn of the dangers of high-fat diets and high cholesterol levels, particularly heart disease and certain types of cancer. Since 1994 the government has required uniform labeling so that consumers can compare the fat and calories in the food they buy. More than half ofAmericans say that they pay attention to the nutritional content of the food they eat, but they also eat what they really want whenever they feel like it.Experts say that it is a combination of social, cultural, and psychological factors that determine the way people eat. An article on America’s weight problems refers to “the culture of over-indulgence seemingly ingrained in American life”. “The land of plenty seems destined to include plenty of pounds as well,” they conclude. Part of the problem is that Americans eat larger portions and often go back for second helpings, in contrast to the reasonable amount people in many other countries have.Another factor is Americans’ love of fast food. Some estimates are that 50% of Americans eat pizza once every twoweek, a percentage that is no doubt quite a bit higher among high school and college students. Americans are having more and more hamburgers, French fries, and soft drinks at restaurants, not only because they like them, but because these foods are the cheapest items.Another important factor is Americans’ busy lifestyle. Since so many women are working, families are eating a lot of fast food, frozen dinners, and restaurant “takeout”. Some experts think that Americans have really lost control of their eating; it is not possible to limit fat and calories when they eat so much restaurant and packaged food. It takes some time to prepare fresh vegetables and fish; stopping at KFC on the way home from work is a much faster choice. Often American families eat "on the run" instead of sitting down at the table together.71. More than half of Americans do not exercise in their leisure time because______.A. they want to live a comfortable lifeB. they don’t know what’s good for themC. they are busyD. they just don't do it72. The number of overweighed people is _______.A. one in fourB. one in threeC. 20 percent of the populationD. 50 percent73. Wh at does the word “over-indulgence” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Eating too much.B. Extreme work.C. Exercising too much.D. Sleeping too much.74. Americans like fast food because _______.A. it is cheapB. it is available everywhereC. Americans are quite busyD. all of the above75. We infer from the passage that _______.A. Americans usually sit down at the table and enjoy their foodB. Americans often eat at restaurantsC. Americans often eat in a hurryD. Americans often eat with their familiesPassage 4Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy by people. Almost everybody thinks attractive people are healthier and happier, and have better marriage and have more respectable jobs. Consultants give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are kinder on attractive defendants. But in the executive circle, beauty can become a liability.While attractiveness is relatively positive for a man in his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were regarded as having more integrity than plainer men; effort and ability were considered to account for their success. While attractive female executives were thought to have less integrity than unattractive ones; their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and capability than the attractive female executives. It is interesting that the rise of the unattractive overnight success was attributed more to personal relationshipsand less to ability than was that of attractive overnight success.Why are charming women not thought to be capable? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine (and an attractive man more masculine.) Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditional female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the “masculine” qualities that are required.This is true even in politics. “If the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently,” says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates. She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photos, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photos were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order that they would vote for them. The results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men, but the women who had been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.76. The word “liability” in Paragraph 1 most prob ably means “_______”.A. misfortuneB. instabilityC. disadvantageD. burden77. In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness _______.A. reinforces the feminine qualities requiredB. makes women look more honest and capableC. is of primary importance to womenD. often enables women to succeed quickly78. Bowman’s experiment reveals that when it comes topolitics, attractiveness _____.A. turns out to be an obstacle to menB. affects men and women alikeC. has as little effect on men as on womenD. is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women79. I t can be inferred from the passage that people’s views on beauty are often _____.A. practicalB. prejudicedC. old-fashionedD. radical80. The author writes this passage to _______.A. discuss the negative aspects of being attractiveB. give advice to job seekers who are attractiveC. demand equal rights for womenD. emphasize the importance of appearancePart Ⅳ Translation ( 2 × 10 points)Directions: There are 10 sentences in this section. Please translate sentences 81～85 from Chinese into English, and translate sentences 86～90 from English into Chinese. Write your answer on the Answer Sheet.81.当我最后终于有时间去医院看他时，已经为时太晚。

I hear it more and more as I go about trying to do my business. One day, I was at the airport trying to buy a ticket to Washington and the man said, "I'm sorry, I can't sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.""What do you mean your computer is down?" "It just doesn't work well.""Then just write me out a ticket." "I can't write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to issue tickets for the plane."I looked down the counter, and all the people behind the counter were just standing there, drinking coffee and staring into a dark screen. "What do all you people do?" "We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.""So when it goes down, you go down with it.""That's very good, Sir. I haven't heard it put that way before.""How long will the computer be down?""I have no idea. There is no way we can find out without askingthe computer, and since it's down it won't answer us.""Don't you have a backup computer when the main computer goes down?""I doubt it. Do you know what they cost?""Let's forget the computer. What about your planes? They're still flying, aren't they?""I couldn't tell without asking the computer, and as I told you… ""I know it's down. Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he's flying to Washington," I suggested."I wouldn't know what gate to send you to.""I'll try them all," I said."Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn't take you ifyou didn't have a ticket.""Why don't I give you the money, you give me a receipt, and I'll show it to the pilot as proof that I have paid?""We wouldn't know what to charge you. The computer knows the air-fares that change every hour.""How about my credit card?""That's even worse. When our computer is down, it can't tell the credit card computer to charge the fare to your account.""Is there any other plane flying to Washington within the next few hours?""I wouldn't know," he said, pointing to the dark screen. "Only IT knows.""And at the moment IT knows nothing."By this time, there were quite a few people standing in line. The word soon spread and some people started to cry, whilst others kicked their luggage. A man in a red jacket cameout."I'm sorry that our main computer went down. But as soon as it gets over its problem, it's going to buy everyone who missed their plane a free drink."1. The sentence "The computer is down." means（） [单选题] *A. The computer is put under the tableB. The computer fell from the tableC. The computer has stopped working(正确答案)D. The computer is powered off2. Without a computer, the man who sold the tickets （） [单选题] *A. was unwilling (不愿意的) to sell ticketsB. had trouble selling tickets(正确答案)C. had no changewas unable to write a ticket3.

Through the story, we can learn that（） [单选题] *A. the people working at the airport were lazyB. the author had not enough money for the ticket(正确答案)C. the computer didn't allow people to sell ticketsD. computers bring us both convenience and troublesStudents 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 Universityof 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,'1 according to the journal article. Study skills refer to behaviorsthat 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.” 4t Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school，”Orpinas concluded.6.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 tobacco7.When doing his study, Orpinas_____. [单选题] *A. followed a group of students of 6th and 12th gradeB. completed a survey and a report each year(正确答案)C. completed questionnaires about the students’ academic effortsD. found that the students’ study skills have connection with their frequency of dating8.Study skills may include the following behaviors and qualities Except_____ [单选题] *A. being diligentB. bcing well organizedC. being kind and helpful(正确答案)D. finishing assigned schoolwork9. What can possibly happen to the school couples 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.C. They will miss their ex-partners sometimesD. They will think it，s reasonable Io get depressed.(正确答案)10.Orpinas’ attitude towards dating in middle school is_____ [单选题] *A. supportiveB. positiveC. negative(正确答案)D. indifferentFor years, international swimming has been controlled by a small number of powerful nations. The U.S, Russia, Germany and Australia have produced some of the sport’s finest players and have won most of the top competitions and medals. But the results of this month’s world championships, which are being held in the Australian city of Perth, will not be so easy to predict. Since the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, many new names and nationalities have emerged to take on the world leaders. The 1996 Olympics should have been an opportunity for the U.S to display its great swimming power, but instead it faced some embarrassing defeats.The surprises started on the first day of the competitions, when Fred of Belgium set a world record in the competition for 100-metres breast-stroke(蛙泳). Never before had Belgium produced an Olympic champion swimmer. Two other countries also won swimming gold medals for the first time on the opening day. Ireland’s Michelle Smith delighted her country with the first of her three gold medals. NewZealand also celebrated with Danyon Loader’s gold in the men’s 200-metres free style. Loader went on to win the 400 meters later in the competition.But late on the second day, the U.S team’s officials and coaches were starting to besurprised.
