Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the bodyrecovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep!1. A good title for this is ____.A. SleepC. DreamsB. Good HealthD. Work and Rest2. The word drowsy in the last paragraph means ____.A. sickC. asleepB. stand upD. a little sleepy3. This suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you_____.A. dream more often C. nervousB. have poor health D. breathe quickly4. During REM, ____.A. your eyes move quickly C. you are restlessB. you dreamD. both A and B5.

in1984by Sir Ludwig Guttmann,the situation began to change.Sir Ludwig Guttmann,who had been driven to England in1939from Nazi Gernamy,had been asked by the British government to set up an injuries centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London.His ideas about treating injuries included sport for the disabled.In the first games just tow teams of injured soldiers took part.The next year,1949,five teams took part.From those beginnings,things have developed fast.Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year.In1960the first Olympics for the Disabled were held in Rome,in the same place as the normal Olympic Games,although they are organized separately.In other years Games for the Disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville.In the1984wheelchair Olympic Games,1064wheelchair athletes from about40countries took part.Unfortunately,they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles,along with the other Olympics. The Games have been a great success in promoting international friendshiop and understanding,and in proving that being disabled does not mean you can't enjoy sport.One small source of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games,however,has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee to include disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able-bodied.Perhaps a few more yearsare still needed to convince those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athlets should not be excluded.1.The first games for the desabled were held_____after Sir Ludwig Guttmann arrived in England.A.40yearsB.21yearsC.10yearsD.9years2.Besides Stoke Mandeville,surely the games for the disabled were once held in_____.A.New YorkB.LondonC.RomeD.Los Angeles3.In Paragraph3,the word"athletes"means_____.A.people who support the gamesB.people who watch the gamesC.people who organize the gamesD.people who compete in the games4.Which of the following statements in NOT true?A.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an early organizer of the games for the disabled.B.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an injured soldier.C.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is from Germany.D.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is welcomed by the British government.5.From the,we may conclude that the writer is_____.A.one of the organizers of the games for the disabledB.a disabled person who once took part in the gamesC.against holding the games for the disabledD.in favour of holding the games for the disabled四、书面表达:请起草一份中学学校通知,用一段话说明以下要点:参观日期:3月25日,星期天时间:早上8点钟出发。

They weren’t at all sure her son was going to survive the accident that had hurt him so badly. With 16 in her eyes she said, “They’re taking away my hope.”I knew then that it was 17 just a coincidence that I was wearing the ring that I had on that day. As she continued to talk, I 18 took the ring off my finger and placed it in Jennie’s hand. I told her to wear it to remember that God loved her and He would be with her though all of this. 19 Jennie looked down at the ring, she got excited and then held it tightly, for the word written on the ring was “HOPE”.The last day I was at the hospital, I saw Jennie in the distance as I got on the lift.

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet .Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.People ’s attitudes towards gift-giving may vary from country to country, even though the desire to convey a feeling of friendship is often universal. Here is an example to illustrate the differences.Japan is a gift-giving country. It is not unusual to offer a gift to a person who is leaving or has been helpful. When people do that, the gifts tend to be substantial and expensive. However, at least in the typical Japanese style, it is not required to attach a thank-you note or card to the gift. Japanese people may express their gratitude and friendship directly through the gift they have carefully chosen and given to the person they love and respect. In contrast, you are likely to get more cards than gifts in the United States. A card may come with a small gift or no gift at all. In general, American people don ’t care very whether the gift is expensive or not. As a matter of fact, your gift to them would be appreciated all the more if you made it yourself instead of buying it from a store. And the words on the card seem to be the most important thing. When someone does not have a card on hand, he or she would write you a thank-you note on a piece of paper, give it to you in person or put it in your pigeon hole.21. What kind of gift is usually given in Japan to a person who is leaving or has beenhelpful?A. The gift which tends to be substantial and expensive.B. The gift which tends to be cheap.C. The gift to which a thank-you note is attached.D. Any gift.22. What kind of gifts do American people prefer to receive? A. The gift which is expensive.B. The gift which has no thank-you note attached.C. The gift which is bought from a store.D. The gift which is made by yourself and has a thank-you note attached.23. What is the differences between Americans and Japanese in the attitudes towards gift-giving?A. Both care the value of the gift.B. Neither cares the value of the gift.C. Americans care the value of the gift while Japanese don ’t.D. Japanese care the value of the gift while Americans don ’t.24. What might Americans do if they do not have a thank-you note at hand? A. They will say thank to you in person. B. They will call you to say thanks.C. They will write you a thank-you note on a piece of paper.D. They will do nothing.25. What does the author try to illustrate through these examples? A. Americans care the value of the gift while Japanese don ’t. B. Japanese care the value of the gift while Americans don ’t.C. People ’s attitudes towards gift-giving may vary from country to country.D. Both Americans and Japanese care the value of the gift.IV .

Some people,however,think that this is where the danger lies.The television viewers need do nothing.He does not even have to use his legs if the has a remote control.He makes no choice and exercises,no judgment. He is completely passive and has everything presented to him without any effort in his part.Television,it is often said,keeps one informed about current events and the latest developments in science and politics.The most distant countries and the strangest customs are brought right into one’s sitting room.It could be argued that the radio performs this service as well;but on television everything is much more living,much more real.Yet here again there is a danger.The television screen itself has a terrible, almost physical charm for us.We get so used to looking at the movements on it,so dependent on its pictures,that it begins to control our lives. People are often heard to say that their television sets have broken down and that they have suddenly found that they have far more time to do things and the they have actually begin to talk to each other again.It makes one think,doesn’t it?There are many other arguments for and against television.We must realize that television itself is neither good nor bad.It is the uses that it is put to that determine its value to society.1.What is the major function of paragraph1?A.To arouse the reader’s concernB.To introduce the theme of the wholeC.To summarize the wholeD.To sate the primary uses of TV2.Television,as a source of entertainment,is______.A.not very convenientB.very expensiveC.quite dangerousD.relatively cheap3.Why are some people against TV?A.Because TV programs re not interestingB.Because TV viewers are totally passiveC.Because TV prices are very high.D.Because TV has both advantages and disadvantages4.One of the most obvious advantages of TV is that______.A.it keeps us informedB.it is very cheapC.it enables us to have a restD.it controls our lives5.According to the,whether TV is good or not depends on_______.A.its qualityB.people’s attitude towards itC.how we use itD.when we use it四、书面表达:(满分15分)请你写封信给你的朋友marry告诉他,请他关照下你的朋友,内容重点如下:1.告诉这个消息2.请他给你朋友一些建议并给予指导注意:字数应为120词左右参考答案:一、选择题:1-5题:ABABC11-15题:CADAD11-15题:ADBAB16-20题:BBABB二、完型填空1.【答案】B这里at the turn of the century表示的是“在本世纪初”这一具体时间,只有at可以用在这里。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stories. Clothes, which have been worn only a few tunes, have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women whocannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened: necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.No one can claim mat the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability. They are only interested in outward appearance and they lake advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some lime in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high--heeled shoes.When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to bedrawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashion of women's clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.21. What is the tone of the passage?A) CriticizingB) PraisingC) Matter-of-factD) Enthusiastic22.

Finding out what the customer wants is one of the problems marketing research tries to solve. Marketing research has been defined as trying to analyze marketing problems scientifically. It studies people as buyers and sellers, examining their habits, attitudes, preferences, dislikes, and purchasing power. It oftenstudies specific groups of people, such as teenagers, high-income groups, or senior citizens. Marketing research also investigates distribution systems, pricing, promotion, productdesign, packaging, brand names, and almost every aspect of the seller-buyer relationship.Marketing research is divided into number of sub-areas. Advertising research attempts to find out the effectiveness of advertising. It also seeks to learn the best media for advertising specific products; television, newspapers, radio, magazines, billboards, and others. Market analysis tries to identify and measure markets for specific products and to estimate sales potential. Markets may be differentiated by population groups or by geography. Some types of clothing are more likely to sell in Florida and California than in the northern Midwest. Some cosmetics(化妆品)will appeal more to black customers than to white customers. Performance analysis helps a company learn how well it is meeting its goals of sales and profits. Product research covers the whole area of new-product development. Marketing research is an expensive undertaking, and its costs are built into the prices of products.26. The distribution system aims to ____.A) sell goods in marketsB) deliver products to different placesC) analyze productsD) produce and sell goods27. As far as advertising is concerned, television ____.A) is the best medium for direct advertisingB) is the best medium for indirect advertisingC) is a suitable medium only for certain goodsD) is the quickest and cheapest means of advertising28. Sweaters produced for and sold to young women are examples of market differentiation according to ____.A) age and educationB) population groupC) quality and sizeD) gender and occupation29. Performance analysis and product analysis differ in that ____.A) the former aims to find out how a goal is met in a more efficient wayB) the former is to find out if the present performance is directed to the goalC) the latter aims to find out how the present product is marketedD) the latter aims to find out whether a product is being sold well30. According to the last paragraph, the cost of marketing research ____.A) is supplied by the producer and seller togetherB) is met by increasing the price of the productC) is too expensive to be met only by the producerD) is high but the price of the product should be kept lowPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:It is commonly believed in the United States that school is where people go to get an education. Nevertheless, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The distinction between schooling and education implied by this remark is important.Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling, Education knows no bounds. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or on the job, whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes both the formal learning thattakes place in schools and the whole universe of informal learning. The agents of education can range from a respected grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a distinguished scientist. Whereas schooling has certain predictability, education quite often produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. People are engaged in education from infancy on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be an integral (组成的) part of one's entire life.Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at approximately the same time, lake assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject being taught. For example, high school students know that they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their communities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling.31. What is the main idea of the passage?A) Education and schooling are quite different experiences.B) One can receive education everywhere; going to school is not a must.C) The common belief that people go to school to get an education is wrong.D) Schooling offers a limited section of formal training while education covers a vast field of informal training.32. What does the author probably mean by “children interrupt their education to go to school”(Para.1)?A) The more years students go to school, the worse their education is.B) People are engaged in education the whole life.C) Children go to school just to make trouble.D) Schooling is not educationally beneficial.33. The phrase "For example" in Para.3 introduces a sentence that gives examples of ____.A) the slices of reality that are to be learnedB) the results of schoolingC) limitations of classroom teachingD) the similarities of alt schools34. Which of the following conclusions does the passage support?A) Without formal education, people would remain ignorant.B) Education systems need to be thoroughly reformed.C) Education involves many years of competence training.D) Going to school is only part of one's education.35. The passage is written in the way of ____.A) contrasting the meanings of two related wordsB) giving examples of different kinds of educationC) listing and discussing several educational problemsD) providing facts to support an argumentPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Under normal conditions the act of communication requires the presence of at least two persons: one who sends and onewho receives the communication. In order to communicate thoughts and feelings, there must be a conventional system of signs or symbols which mean the same to the sender and receiver.The means of sending communications are too numerous and varied for systematic classification; therefore, the analysis must begin with the means of receiving communication. Reception of communication is achieved by our senses. Sight, hearing, and touch play the most important roles. Smell and taste play very limited roles, for they cannot receive intellectual expression from fully developed systems of signs and symbols.Examples of visual communication are gesture and mimicry(模仿). Although both frequently accompany speech, there are systems that rely solely on sight, such as those used by deaf and dumb persons. Another means of communicating visually is by signals of fire, smoke, flags, or flashing lights. Feelings may be simply communicated by touch, such as by handshaking or backslapping, although a highly developed system of hand-stroking(抚摸手)has enabled blind, deaf, and dumb persons to communicate intelligently. Whistling to someone, applauding in a theater, and other forms of communication by sound rely upon the ear as a receiver. The most fully developed form of auditory communication is, of course, the spoken language.The means of communication mentioned so far have two features in common:they last only a short time, and the persons involved must be relatively close to each other. Therefore, all are restricted in time and space.36. The author explains that he will deal with reception of communication first because ____.A) communication actually takes place when the message is receivedB) there are more means of receiving than of sending communicationsC) reception of communications involves use of the sensesD) it is difficult to organize by the means of sending communications37. Applauding is specifically mentioned as an example of ____.A) communication by soundB) gesture and mimicryC) communication by touchD) a simple system of visual communication38. Persons who cannot see, hear, or speak are able to communicate through a system of ____.A) gesturingB) handshakingC) hand-strokingD) backslapping39. The author specifically mentions that speech is ____.A) often used when communicating by touchB) the most developed form of communication based on hearingC) the only highly developed system of communicationD) necessary for satisfactory communication by gesture40. Which of the following statements about the ways of communicating ideas and feelings mentioned in the passage is NOT TRUE?A) They can be used to communicate over long distances.B) They require both a sender and a receiver.C) They involve use of conventional signs and symbols.D) They utilize the senses for reception.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes) Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

This 71 called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy 72. During the hours when you 73 your work you may say that you're "hot". That's true. The time of day when you feel most 74 is when your cycle of body temperature is 75 its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For 76 it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it 77 such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: Get up John! You'll be late for work again! The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his 78 and energy peak in the evening. 79 family quarreling ends when husbands and wives realize 80 these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the 81 has.You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life 82 it better. 83 can help, Dr. Kieitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must 84 late anyway. Counteract(对换) your cycle 85 by habitually staying up late than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have important job to do 86 in the day, 87 before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point. Whenever possible, do 88 work in the afternoon and 89 tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your 90 hours.71. A) might be B) mustC) need be D) can be72.

Ever since he appeared on the earth man has been depending on animals for many things, such as meat, fur and medical materials. Some clever animals like dogs and horses have long been man’s friends and good helpers in his daily life. On the other hand, animals have been depending on man for the protection of their habitat and their reproduction.But the present condition of wildlife is discouraging. Their living space is becoming increasingly smaller as a result of environmental pollution and the destruction of forests. Owing to man’s capture and killing a lot of species have already died out, and many more are now on the verge of extinction. So the totalnumber and species of wild animals are greatly reducing. If such state of affairs should continue, man would ultimately become the only creature on this planet.Animals are part of the whole ecological system, and without them the balance of nature will be destroyed and man will not be able to live on. Therefore, some effective measures should be taken to protect wildlife. First, man should be more aware of the importance of protecting animals and loving those fellow creatures. Second, relevant laws should be made to punish those who cut down trees or kill animals at random.Third, better living environments for wild animals, such as natural reservations and national parks, should be created. In short, the world won’t look so beautiful unless man and animals live in harmony forever.。

Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to besomething which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listenand understand — he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him.What visual artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors, or have felt thedelight which they brought to the artist.Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature andfrom human bodies in motion and repose; their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint gangrenous leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect ofthe world. Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something一all of which means that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.(1).It is hard to explain what a painter is saying becauseA.most painters do not express themselves wellB. a painter uses unusual words and phrasesC. a painter uses shapes and colors instead of wordsD.many painters do not say anything(2).An artist, s choice of shapes and colors indicates that he believes them tobeA. meaningful in themselvesB. merely beautifulC. a reflection of his experiencesD. worth looking at(3).The writer says that contemporary artists might say their choice of subject .A.carries a message to the publicB.only provides interesting patternsC. has no pattern of formD. teaches the public important truths(4).The writer says that contemporary art contains .A. nothing but meaningless patternsB. uninteresting aspects of the worldC. subjects chosen partly for their meaningD. completely meaningless subjects (5).The passage implied that.A. A painting is more easily understood than a symphonyB. Art is merely the arranging of shape and colorC. Every artist tries to say something to the publicD. One must look beyond shape and color to find what the artist is saying2.After practicing as a surgeon for several years, Dr. Ginoux decided to apply for membership in the American College of Surgeons (美国夕卜科医生学会),a highly selective and distinguished professional organization.As part of the application procedure (手续),Dr. Ginoux was asked to prepare a list of all the operations performed in the previous seven years. Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began to feel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case? Maybe, in this case, she should have run one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have ,・・ Would the doctorson the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon inthe area, she usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgment? For the first time, Dr. Ginoux felt lonely and isolated.The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the moredepressed she became. As hope faded, she wondered if a “country doctor”had a realistic chance of being accepted by the American College of Surgeons.(1).Dr. Ginoux was working in .A. a large cityB. the American College of SurgeonsC. an area far from any big cityD. a selective organization(2).The application forms must include _____ .A. the decision procedureB. a record of all the operations.C. the best techniqueD. a list of advice and judgments(3).It was most probable that Dr. Ginoux wasA. a member in that organizationB. a well-trained surgeonC. a graduatefrom the American College of Surgeons D. a distinguished surgeon in America (4).When she was filling the application froms, Dr. Ginoux began to beA. realisticB. distinguishedC. perplexedD. decisive(5).When filling the forms, Dr. Ginoux felt depressed because .A. she didn' t perform enough operationsB. some operations wereunsuccessful C. she didn' t get advice from the selection committee D. she was doubtful about her operations3.An important new industry, oil refining, grew after the Civil War. Crude oil, or petroleum - a dark, thick ooze from the earth - had been known for hundreds of years. But little use had ever been made of it. In the 1850' s Samuel M. Kier, a manufacturer in the western Pennsylvania, began collecting the oil from local seepages and refining it into kerosene, Refining, like smelting, is a process of removing impurities from a raw material.Kerosene was used to light lamps. It was a cheap substitute for whaleoil, which was becoming harder to get. Soon there was a large demand for kerosene. People began to search for new supplies of petroleum.The first oil well was drilled by E. L. Drake, a retired railroad conductor. In 1859 he began drilling in Titusville, Pennsylvania. The whole venture seemed so impractical and foolish that onlookers called it “Drake's Folly” . But when he had drilled down about 70 feet (21 meters), Drake struck oil. His well began to yield 20 barrels of crude oil a day.News of Drakes success brought oil prospectors to the scene. By theearly I860' s these wildcatters were drilling for “black gold" all over western Pennsylvania. The boom rivaled the California gold rush of 1848 inits excitement and Wild West atmosphere. And it brought far more wealth tothe prospectors than any gold rush.Crude oil could be refined into many products. For some years kerosene continued to be the principal one. It was sold in grocery stores and door-to-door. In the 1880' s refiners learned how to make other petroleumproducts such as waxes and lubricating oils. Petroleum was not then used to make gasoline or heating oil.(1).Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Oil Refining: A Historical PerspectiveB. The California Gold Rush: Get Rich QuicklyC. Private Property: Trespassers Will Be ProsecutedD. Kerosene Lamps: Trespassers Will Be Prosecuted(2).It can be inferred from the passage that Kerosene was preferable to whaleoil because whale oil was too .A. expensiveB. thickC. hotD.pollutedWhy does the author mention the California gold rush? A. to explain the need for an increased supply of gold B. to indicate the extent of United States mineral wealth C. to describe the mood when oil was first discovered D. to argue that gold was more valuable than oil(4).The word "one" in the second sentence of the last paragraph could best bereplaced by which of the following words?A. oilB. doorC. storeD. product(5).The author mentions all of the following as possible products of crude oil EXCEPTA. waxB. gasolineC. KeroseneD. plastic 4.Are you planning a vacation? If you like hot and extremely dry summers,go to Phoenix, Arizona. For hot temperatures but lots of rain and thunderstorms, try Miami, Florida. If you want average temperatures and rainfall, St. Louis, Missouri, is the spot. Or if you,re a cold weather fan, head to Fairbanks, Alaska. Its winters are very cold with little precipitation. Each of these cities has a certain type of weather. The average weather for a place over many years is called climate, and in no two places in the world is it exactly the same. How can this be?Many things in nature, such as sunshine, temperature, and precipitation, affect climate. Nearness to mountain, oceans, and large lakes affects it too. Another factor is altitude, or height above sea level. Air cools as altitude increases. So a city at a higher altitude may be colder than one at a lower altitude. Finally, winds affect climate. They move heat and moisture between the oceans and continents. Winds keep the tropics from overheating. Theykeep the polar regions from getting overly cold.Climate changes over long periods of time. Some scientists think, for example, that the earth,s climate changed at the time of the dinosaurs. They think the dinosaurs died because of the change. What causes a climate to change? One possible cause may be changes in the sun. Sunspots, for example, are cool, dark spots that form on the sun. Sunspots may decreaseprecipitation on the earth and cause unusually dry periods. Changes in the atmosphere may change climate too. Volcanic eruptions, for instance, release solid particles into the air. These particles may form a cloud that blocksout the sun,s heat. Human activity is another cause of climate change. Air pollution and the reduction of forest cover may have long-term effects on climate.(1).This passage is concerned with things that affect .A. precipitationB. climateC. altitudeD. sunspots(2).Change in climate may have caused .A. dinosaurs to dieB. dark spots to form on the sunC.volcanic eruption D. air pollution(3).The effect of a volcanic eruption on climate may be to make itA. wetterB. dryerC. warmerD. colder(4).To help readers understand how climate can change, the writer uses.A. examplesB. a story about the seashoreC. order of importanceD. a strong argument(5).Which of the following is the place of greatest altitude on a mountain?A. the foot of the mountainB. 8, 500 feet up the mountainC. the top of the mountainD. 15,785 feet up the mountain答案:一、单项选择题(60分,共60题,每小题1分)1.

Despit occasional alarms, the country escaped any postwar depression and lived in a state of boom. A n economic survey of the year 1955, a typical year of the 1950’s, may be typical as illustrating the rapid economic growth of the decade. The national output was value at 10 percent above that of 1954 (1955 output was estimated at 392 billion dollars). The production of manufacturers was about 40 percent more than it had averaged in the years immediately following World War 2. The country’s business spent about 30billion dollars for new factories and machinery. National income available for spending was almost a third greater than it had been it had been in 1950. Consumers spent about 256 billion dollars; that is about 700 million dollars a day ,or about twenty-five million dollars every hour , all round the clock. Sixty-five million people held jobs and only a little more than two million wanted jobs but could not find them . Only agriculture complained that it was not sharing in the room. To some observers this was an ominous echo of the mid-1920’s . As farmer’s shre of their products declined , marketing costs rose. But there were , among the observers of the national economy, a few who were not as confident as the majority . Those few seemed to fear that the boom could not last and would eventually lead to the oppsite-depression.1. What is the best title of the passage?A. The Agriculatural Trends of 1950’sB.

Reading Comprehension (每小题2分,共10分)Directions : There are one passage in this section. The passage is followed by somequestions 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 Answer Sheet .Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.People ’s attitudes towards gift-giving may vary from country to country, even though the desire to convey a feeling of friendship is often universal. Here is an example to illustrate the differences.Japan is a gift-giving country. It is not unusual to offer a gift to a person who is leaving or has been helpful. When people do that, the gifts tend to be substantial and expensive. However, at least in the typical Japanese style, it is not required to attach a thank-you note or card to the gift. Japanese people may express their gratitude and friendship directly through the gift they have carefully chosen and given to the person they love and respect. In contrast, you are likely to get more cards than gifts in the United States. A card may come with a small gift or no gift at all. In general, American people don ’t care very whether the gift is expensive or not. As a matter of fact, your gift to them would be appreciated all the more if you made it yourself instead of buying it from a store. And the words on the card seem to be the most important thing. When someone does not have a card on hand, he or she would write you a thank-you note on a piece of paper, give it to you in person or put it in your pigeon hole.21. What kind of gift is usually given in Japan to a person who is leaving or has beenhelpful?A. The gift which tends to be substantial and expensive.B. The gift which tends to be cheap.C.

The gift which has no thank-you note attached.C. The gift which is bought from a store.D. The gift which is made by yourself and has a thank-you note attached.23. What is the differences between Americans and Japanese in the attitudes towards gift-giving?A. Both care the value of the gift.B. Neither cares the value of the gift.C. Americans care the value of the gift while Japanese don ’t.D. Japanese care the value of the gift while Americans don ’t.24. What might Americans do if they do not have a thank-you note at hand? A. They will say thank to you in person. B. They will call you to say thanks.C. They will write you a thank-you note on a piece of paper.D. They will do nothing.25.
