Almost 68% of people think that the government has secret knowledge of extraterrestrial life. It is not (47) _surprising__ (surprise) that the government has come under more and more (48) pressure____ to declassify its UFO records and make them public. A variety of different groups have been involved in these efforts.One group to become involved is called CFI, the Coalition for Freedom of Information, John Podesta, who was White House Chief of Staff during Bill Clinton’s (49)presidency____(president), is one of the many high-powered people active in this group. CFI’s aim is not to prove the (50) _existence___(exist) of extraterrestrial life, but to make it easier for scientists in general to study unexplained aerial phenomena. Podesta and his group has asked the Pentagon to declassify its UFO records and therefore provide scientists (51) with____ data that will help in the study of UFOs.CFI has requested the release of information on several UFO cases, starting with the Kecksburg, Pennsylvania, incident. This incident took (52) __place__ in 1965 when a large acorn-shaped object, the size of a small car, crashed in Pennsylvania. Some analysts say it could have been the spacecraft Kosmos 96 that had been launched towards Venus by the Soviet Union, but failed to escape Earth’s (53) gravity____. Others say the object did not look anything like spacecraft built on Earth in 1965.(54) Additionally___, the people of Kecksburg want to know what happened. On that (55) afternoon____, hundreds of eyewitnesses watched a fiery streak of light descend from the sky towards Earth. Officials explained that nothing was found or recovered and that maybe the fireball in the sky was a meteor. But many witnesses say they saw a number of military personnel from the Army and the Air Force search the woods, and later that evening, saw a large militarytractor-trailer coming from the area carrying a large object under a tarp.Part IV Reading Comprehension (40 marks)Read the following passage. Each passage is followed by several questions. Respond to the questions using information from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.Section A (10 marks)Questions 56-60 are based on the following passage.The average automatic teller machine (ATM) is not very smart. It will give money to anyone who has the right card and punches four or five keys in the right order. Some analysts estimate that as many as 30% of ATM transaction worldwide are cases of theft. To increase security at cash machines, some banks have tried to make their ATMs a little smarter. A small camera on the machine looks directly into the eye of every customer. It scans one iris and compares the tiny patterns of ridges, dots, and other features to a code in its computer. If there is a match, the ATM will start counting out cash. If not, a message is automatically sent to the nearest police station.Iris-scanning is one fast-growing form of biometric identification --- determining who someone is by examining features the body. One of the earliest biometric techniques was fingerprinting. The line on fingerprints are unique to each person, so not even identical twins have the same fingerprints. Fingerprinting has become famous as a way of finding out who committed a crime, but it very often fails. A careful criminal can swear gloves, avoid touching thing, or even alter his fingerprints by burning, cutting, or scraping them. In the search for a more reliable system, security experts have focused on the eye.Like a fingerprint, every iris is, for all practical purposes, unique. Each person’s right iris is even different from his or her left one. A low-cost digital camera, like the kind installed at ATM machines, can easily detect hundreds of different features in the iris. The chance of two irises having the same features is close to zero. Tests have shown that iris-scanners are very hard to fool. They can tell the difference between a real iris and a false one. They can see right through colored contact lenses, eyeglasses, and even mirrored sunglasses. Although many criminal are willing to burn or cut their fingers in pursuit of the perfect crime, few would be willing or able to alter their irises.T o make iris-scanning work, a computerized database has to match certain iris features with certain people. This means that each A TM customer has to allow a bank to photograph his or her iris and keep that highly personal information in a computer. Some people have worried, however, that an increased use of iris-scanning will lead to a dangerous loss of privacy. By mountingiris-scan cameras in public places, governments could track a private citizen all day long without the person’s knowledge. This would be a great advantage to the police, but it could also give corrupt officials a new way to control their opponents. The military’s development of tiny robots suggests that government iris-scanners could even invade private homes!Questions 56-60Complete the summary with words from the passage, changing the form where necessary, with only one word for each blank.Section B (10 marks)Questions 61-65 are based on the following passage.Seed catalogues feature hundreds of flowering species. For the persons just beginning garden this can be bewildering, and below are the details of some popular choices, nearly all of which should be sown in the spring. With the exception of busy lizzies, which need a little care, they are all very easy to grow from seed.DahliasThese are sturdy plants bearing showy flowers in a wide range of rather gaudy colors. Sow in a frame in April and plant the seedlings out when frosts are over. Dahlias flower throughout the summer and into the autumn. When autumn frosts begin to make them look unhappy, you should dig up the tuberous roots and save them. A frost -free loft, shed or garage is the ideal place. The following spring you plant the tubers instead of sowing seed again.LupinsLupins are hardy perennials. This means that the plants will stay in your garden and carry on flowering year after year. Seed sown in April will usually give you some spikes of colors in the first summer, and year by year the plants get bigger and the flowering stems get taller and grander. Selective breeding has led to the introduction of some fine, bicolored varieties in some dazzling shades. The short -lived flowers make a real misunderstanding spectacle.Busy lizziesLike dahlias, busy lizzies need to be started offunder glass, as they cannot stand frost, and pantingout is best done in May. Outdoor flowering ends inSeptember, so beat the frosts and bring your favoritespecimens indoors to give your home some sintercolor! Indoors they will carry on floweringindefinitely, though you may like to plant them outagain when spring returns. Like pansies (below) they do very well in sun or shade, but the soil must be moist. Most varieties grow to be a height of only 20 cm or so.PotentillasPotentillas are hardy shrubs. In other words, the woody branches spring from groundlevel—there is no central trunk. Seed is probably best sown in autumn, in which case you should keep the plants in a sheltered spot until April offers favorable conditions for planting out. Once flowering begins in early summer the best varieties (such as Melton Fire) will stay in bloomATM transactions are often cases of theft, where an unauthorized user takes (56) __money_. To decrease insecurity, some banks have installed iris -scanning machines at ATMs. These small cameras scan the user’s iris, recording its features and (57) _comping___ them to a digital file. Every person has a (58) _ unique ___ iris, making iris identification highly reliable. Earlier efforts at biometric identification often relied on fingerprints. However, fingerprints can easily be (59) altered____ through cutting, burning or scrapping. Iris scanners are so effective that they can even see through contact lenses and mirrored sunglasses. Use of iris scanners would provide great advantages to the police. However, others worry about a loss of (60) ____.almost ceaselessly for years on end while at the same time spreading out to provide ground cover or a low hedge.PansiesPansies have a good long flowering season year after year, and some varieties can be sown in spring to give truly splendid results the first autumn. Unlike dahlias and lupins, which can easily grow a meter tall, pansies grow no higher than 10 or 20 cm. Their soil, position and moisture requirements are just like those of busy lizzies but pansies differ in being hardy. Give them a try!Questions 61-63Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.61. Both dahlias and lupins, which are sown in April, need protecting from frost.62. Brought indoors in autumn, dahlias, busy lizzies and potentillas will carry on flowering almost non-stop.63. Among all the flowers busy lizzies are not very easy to grow from seed.Section C (10 marks)Questions 66-70 are based on the following passage.When looking for love, people may go to some extreme lengths. They might go on blind dates set up by family and friends. They might write personal ads to place in newspapers. Or they might use a computer to help them in their search for a soul mate by joining an online dating services. Some people have even tried to find their perfect match through game shows on television. Many of these TV dating shows, including The Bachelor and Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire? have proved to be ratings blockbusters, with millions of viewers watching each week to find out which of the contestants will find true love.Of all these game shows, perhaps the one with the most unexpected ending was Mr. Right, which was shown in England in 2002. On the show, a bachelor, thirty-five-year-old Lance Gerrard-Wright, dated fifteen women to find the one who was his ideal partner. The host of the show was Ulrika Johnson, an English celerity originally from Sweden. For seven weeks on the show, Gerrard-Wright took turns going on dates with each of the women, taking them to expensive restaurants and exotic locations. He even met the women’s families and introduced them to his own. Then at the end of each episode, he would choose between one and three of the contestants with whom he had felt the least compatible, and say goodbye to them.At one point during the series, one contestant volunteered to leave because she said she didn’t find him attractive. After two dates she said she had had enough, and she couldn’t see it working. “He wasn’t my cup of tea.” In another episode the woman he was on a date with burst into tears when he called her by another contestant’s name. “You called me by another girl’s name. I can’t believe you did that. I really liked you,” she sobbed.But in the final episode, the woman he eventually chose decided she didn’t want to marry him after all. “I think you’ve chosen me because you have to choose someone,” she said. Maybe this was because she already knew he had fallen in love---with the show’s host!After leaving the show, Gerrard-Wright and Johnson were seen dining together and attending parties around London more and more often. Finally, on May 1, 2003, Gerrard-Wright proposed to Johnson on the steps of St. Paul’s Cathedral. And she accepted his proposal right away, although it was a conditional acceptance. Johnson has two children from previous relationships—aneight-year-old son, Cameron, and a two-year-old daughter, Bo. She had to make sure that they agreed to the marriage. Luckily, they did. Gerrard-Wright said, “In the end the show did work for me. I grabbed an opportunity to get a girlfriend and I did. Ulrika’s gorgeous.”Questions 66-68Complete the following sentences with information given in the passage in a maximum of 2 words for each blank.66. Lance Gerrard-Wright went to ____ to go on the show Mr. Right in order to find his perfect match.67. On the show, Lance had the opportunity to date many gorgeous women among whom there might be one that he was almost ____.68. Ulrika accepted Lance’s proposal ____ that her children agreed to their marriage as well. Questions 69-70Choose the best answer according to the passage.69. Which of the following did NOT happen on the show?A. Lance went on dates with several women.B. The candidates went to some very good restaurants.C. Ulrika consulted her parents before she made her decision.D. The women met Lance’s family.70. What happened after seven weeks of doing the show?A. All of the women found their beloved.B. Lance started to date with the show’s host.C. One of the women on the show couldn’t help crying.D. Ulrika asked Lance to marry her.Section D (10 marks)Questions 71-75 are based on the following passage.Alaska is disappearing slowly but surely. Since the 1950s, it is estimated that as much as 15 percent of Alaska’s area has disappeared. But how can a whole state be disappearing?One reason for Alaska’s gradual disappearance is the melting its glaciers. According to one geologist at the US Geological Survey, about 98 percent of Alaska’s glaciers are either unmoving or diminishing. This diminishing seems mainly due to the increase in global temperatures. Since the 1960s, the average year-round temperature has increased by 5℉. Furthermore, the average winter temperature has increased by 8℉. Presently, an estimated 24 cubic miles of ice is disappearing from Alaskan glaciers every year. It may be even more in the near future, as some scientists predict that the average world temperature could go up 2.5 to 10℉by the year 2010.Another problem contributing to Alaska’s gradual disappearance is its permafrost. (74) Much of the land in Alaska was permanently frozen, or frozen for most of the year, thus maintaining its integrity. Now, the thawing permafrost is causing a number of problems on land. Roads and utility poles are collapsing. Also, the hard permafrost which originally prevented beaches from eroding during violent storms is now melting. Affected villages are forced to relocate. For villages on small low islands, one terrible storm could wipe out the entire community.The melting permafrost and increasing temperature are also having a negative impact on the forests of Alaska. As the permafrost under the forests melts, insects that normally don’t turn upuntil the warmer seasons are appearing sooner. The spruce-bark beetle, for example, is increasing in numbers as a result of global warming. It usually takes about two years for these beetles to grow and reproduce in a very cold weather. However, due to the increase in temperatures, spruce-bark beetles are damaging as many trees in one year as they previously damaged in two. At this rate, Alaska’s forest won’t survive the turn of the century.Some scientists believe that human activity is linked to a global increase in weather temperature. Whether the rising temperature are caused by human activity or natural changes, the fact remains that Alaska is warming. Some others argue that global warming may be a normal trend on the Earth’s temperature chart. (75) One theory argues that we are near the end of aso-called “Little Ice Age”, and the return of the glaciers is natural result of this cycle. Whether natural or produced by humans, there is little hope for the immediate future of glaciers as we know them. Horribly, this could be a preview of what will happen to the rest of the world in the next century.Questions 71-73Answer the following questions briefly according to the passage.71. What are disappearing in Alaska actually?72. How much ice is melting each year according to the survey?73. Why do insects damage more trees than before?Questions 74-75Translate the underlined sentences in the passage into Chinese.74. Much of the land in Alaska was permanently frozen, or frozen for most of the year, thus maintaining its integrity75. One theory argues that we are near the end of a so-called “Little Ice Age”, and the return of the glaciers is natural result of this cycle. Whether natural or produced by humans, there is little hope for the immediate future of glaciers as we know them.Part V Translation (10 marks)Translate the following sentences into English, using the hints given in brackets.

We call local maximum, local minimum as extreme value.2.证明(Luis González)Let and Let be the incircleof touching at Clearly and are homothethic with incirclesbut since are symmetric about the midpoint of (isthe M-excircle of MAB), it follows that and are homotheticwith corresponding cevians2.证明(Andrew64)As shown in the figure below.is the intersection of and .Therefore , , meet at the same point .Attachments:link17.jpg [ 37.23 KiB | Viewed 52 times ]3.证明(mavropnevma)Since it is irrelevant which persons of the same gender know each other, we may assume there ore none such, and consider the bipartite graph having the left shore made ofthe boys and the right shore made of the girls, with an edge connecting a boy and a girl ifthey know each other. The condition means does not contain any induced cycle of length ,and the requirement is to show the number of edges satisfies .Thus it is an extremal graph theory question, for bipartite graphs with forbidden 's; bysymmetry we should also have .Denote by the set of girls that each knows exactly one boy, and by the set of girls that eachknows more than one boy; take and . We obviously have and.Let us count the number of objects , where is a girl, are distinctboys, and knows both . For each of the doubletons there is at mostone girl knowing them both (by the condition), so . Moreover, by pigeonholewe have .On the other hand, we have, by Jensen's inequality.We thus need , so.Finally, we get .For equality to be reached we obviously need , namely for each pair of boys having exactly one girl knowing both of them; and then we need .3.证明(crazyfehmy)Another solution: Consider the bipartite graph where there are girls andboys and denote the girls by 's and boys by 's as vertices.Let denote the number of edges from the vertex to set . If is connected to some andthen for any the girl must not connected to both and . Now let us count suchpairs. For every girl there are many pair of edges. Since all such edge pairs must bedistinct for all girls, and since there are at most such pairs, we haveor equivalentlyNow assume that are greater than or equal to and areor . Then we haveand we need to show that .Since for we have and hence .Now by Cauchy-Schwarz inequality we haveand if , we haveand we need to show that . Assume . Then we havewhich means that which is a contradiction. So, we are done.4.解(crazyfehmy)Let be called a nice pair if satisfies the conditionsstated in the problem.Firstly, we shall prove a lemma:If is a nice pair then for all integers and .Proof: Let or and divides for some integers and. Then we can find another pair such that and. (The proof is easy) Then consider the systemand . By the Chinese Remainder Theorem this system has a solution and such that both and isan element of which means that is not a nice pair becauseis divisible by .Now, we shall show that if or then has asolution for all integers . For the proof assume there exists an integer such thathas no solution in integers. Then it is easy to see thathas also no solution for all integers which are not divisibleby . Now take and consider the numbers . For all of these numbers,we have no solution and there are such numbers. Since all square residues have solutions(take ) and there are square residues modulo including zero, this means that forall nonsquare residues , the equation must have no solution. However, for the numberis not a square residue but so for we have asolution which is a contradiction. For the number is not a square residue buthas a solution since is a square residue. Hence we again obtain a contradiction so the second lemma is also proved.Now, since can take every value modulo and we must have andand also we must have and if is a nice pair. So, can take only three values. We will consider each case separately:If then we must have which meansIf then we must have whichmeansIf then we must have whichmeansIf we count these possibilities, if i am not wrong, we get.4.解(dinoboy)First, remark that it suffices for to be injective modulo and .For modulo simply note that we require .For modulo or we require for some thatNow, what values can take modulo ? It is a simple exercise to show allvalues modulo can be obtained (just express it as and then aswe can transform the problem to what values modulo can beexpressed as , which is known to be all of them). Therefore the only way this problemsworks out is if and .Therefore we simply require that and . For each value of there are valuesof modulo , 10 modulo and modulo so the answer should simply be.Note: To show takes all values modulo without relying onis not hard, but I'm lazy and felt like reducing it to an already solved problem.4.解(yunxiu),so ,hence satisfies the problem.So the answer should be .6.解(crazyfehmy)If let then satisfiessince is equivalent to whichhas always a solution in the set for all and since is odd.Now we will show that if then the condition does not satisfy.

On the other hand, none of 's can be equivalent to modulobecause otherwise we would have two equivalent terms. Hence is apermutation of and by adding up these equations we getwhich means. Now do the same procedure for all's to get. Let and. Then we have . So, we havemany numbers equivalent to each other modulo .

since AC > 0. Finally, the perimeter of
3. (a) The parity of an integer is whether it is even or odd. Since the Fibonacci sequence begins 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, . . ., then the parities of the first eight terms are Odd, Odd, Even, Odd, Odd, Even, Odd, Odd. In the sequence, if x and y are consecutive terms, then the next term is x + y . In general, suppose that x and y are integers. If x is even and y is even, then x + y is even. If x is even and y is odd, then x + y is odd. If x is odd and y is even, then x + y is odd. If x is odd and y is odd, then x + y is even. Therefore, the parities of two consecutive terms x and y in the Fibonacci sequence determine the parity of the following term x + y . Also, once there are two consecutive terms whose parities match the parities of two earlier consecutive terms in the sequence, then the parities will repeat in a cycle. In particular, the parities of the fourth and fifth terms (Odd, Odd) are the same as the parities of the first and second terms (Odd, Odd). Therefore, the parities in the sequence repeat the cycle Odd, Odd, Even. This cycle has length 3. Therefore, the 99th term in the Fibonacci sequence ends one of these cycles, since 99 is a multiple of 3. In particular, the 99th term ends the 33rd cycle. Each cycle contains two odd terms. Therefore, the first 99 terms in the sequence include 2 × 33 = 66 odd terms. Finally, the 100th term in the sequence begins a new cycle, so is odd. Therefore, the first 100 terms include 66 + 1 = 67 odd terms. (b) Suppose that the first term in the given sequence is a and the common difference is d. Then the first four terms are a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d. From the given information, a + (a + 2d) = 6 and (a + d) + (a + 3d) = 20. The first equation simplifies to 2a + 2d = 6 or a + d = 3. The second equation simplifies to 2a + 4d = 20 or a + 2d = 10. Therefore, (a + 2d) − (a + d) = 10 − 3 or d = 7. Since a + d = 3 and d = 7, then a = −4. Therefore, the tenth term in the sequence is a + 9d = −4 + 9(7) = 59. 4. (a) There are five odd digits: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9. We consider the positive integers less than 1000 in three sets: those with one digit, those with two digits, and those with three digits. There are 5 positive one-digit integers with one odd digit (namely 1, 3, 5, 7, 9). Consider the two-digit positive integers with only odd digits. Such an integer has the form XY where X and Y are digits. There are five possibilities for each of X and Y (since each must be odd). Therefore, there are 5 × 5 = 25 two-digit positive integers with only odd digits. Consider the three-digit positive integers with only odd digits. Such an integer has the form XY Z where X , Y and Z are digits.

Choose the one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answers on Answer Sheet Two.TEXT AThe art of public speaking began in ancient Greece over 2,000 years ago. Now, twitter, instant messaging, e-mail, blogs and chat forums offer rival approaches to communication - but none can replace the role of a greatspee ch.The spoken word can handle various vital functions: persuading or inspiring, informing, paying tribute, enterta ining, or simply introducing someone or something or accepting something. Over the past year, the human voice has helped guide us over the ups and downs of what was certainly a stormy time.Persuasion is used in dealing with or reconciling different points of view. When the leaders met in Copenhagenin December 2009, persuasive words from activists encouraged them to commit themselves to fir mer action. Inspirational speeches confront the emotions. They focus on topics and matters that are close to pe ople's hearts. During wars, generals used inspiring speeches to prepare the troops for battle.A speech that conveys knowledge and enhances understanding can inform us. The information must be clear, a ccurate, and expressed in a meaningful and interesting way. (流行病) announced, the idea of“swineflu ” many people. Informative speeches from World Health Organization officials helped people to keep their panic under control so they could take sensible precautions.Sad events are never easy to deal with but a speech that pays tribute to the loss of a loved one and gives praise for their contribution can be comforting. Madonna's speech about Michael Jackson,after his death, highlighted the fact that he will continue to live on through his music.It's not only in world forums where public speaking plays an important role. It can also be surprisingly helpful in the course of our own lives.If you?re taking part in a debate you need to persuade the listeners of the soundness ofyour argument. In sports, athletes know the importance of a pep talk (鼓舞士气的讲话) before a match to inspire teammates. You yourself may be asked to do a presentation at college or work t o inform the others about an area of vital importance.On a more personal level, a friend may be upset and need comforting. Or you might beasked to introduce a speaker at a family event or to speak at a wedding, where your language will be needed to move people or make them laugh.Great speaking ability is not something we're born with. Even Barack Obama works hardto perfect every speech. For a brilliant speech, there are rules that you can put to good use. To learn those rules you have to practice and learn from some outstanding speeches in the past.81.The author thinks the spoken word is still irreplaceable because ______.A. it has always been used to inspire or persuade people.B. it has a big role to play in the entertainment business.C. it plays important roles in human communication.D. it is of great use in everyday-life context.82.Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about the role of public speaking? _____A. Speeches at world forums can lead to effective solutions to world problems.B. Speeches from medical authorities can calm people down in times of pandemics.C. The morale of soldiers before a battle can be boosted by senior officers' speeches.D. Speeches paying tribute to the dead can comfort the mourners.83. Public speaking can play all the following roles EXCEPT______.A. to convince people in a debate.B. to inform people at a presentation.C. to advise people at work.D. to entertain people at a wedding.84. According to the passage, which of the following best explains the author's view on ______“great speaking ability”?85.What is the main idea of the passage? ______.A. Public speaking in international forums.B. The many uses of public speaking.C. Public speaking in daily life context.D. The rules of public speaking.TEXT BEvery business needs two things, says Skullcandy CEO Rick Alden: inspiration and desperation. In 2001, Alden had both. He'd sold two snowboarding businesses, and he was desperately bored. But he had an idea: He wan ted to make a new kind of headphone. I kept seeing people missing their cell phone calls because they were list ening to music,” he explains. Then I'm in a chairlift, I've got my headphones on, and I realize my phone is rin ging. As 1 take my gloves off and reach for my phone, I think, “ It can't be that tough to make headphones with two plugs, one for music and one for your cell phone”. Alden described what he wanted to a designer, perfe cted a prototype, and outsourced(外包) manufacturing overseas.Alden then started designing headphones into helmets, backpacks - anywhere that would make it easy to listen to music while snowboarding. “Selling into board and skate shops wasn't a big research effort,” he explains. “Those were the only guys I knew!”Alden didn?t want to be a manufacturer. And by outsourcing, he'd hoped he could get thebusiness off the ground without debt. But he was wrong. So he asked his wife,“Can I puta (抵押贷款) on the house? She said, What is the worst thing that can happen? Welose the house, we sell our cars, and we start all over again?I. definitely married the rightwoman!”For the next two years, Alden juggled mortgage payments and payments to his manufacturers“.Factories won 't ship your product till they get paid,”he says.“But it takes four or five months to get a mortgage company so upset that they knock on your door. So we paid the factory first”.Gradually, non-snowboarders began to notice the colorful headphones. In 2006, the company started selling the m in 1,400 FYE (For Your Entertainment) stores.“ We knew that nine out often people walking into that store would be learning about Skullcandy for the first time. Why would they look at brands they knew and take hom e a new brand instead? We had agreed to buy back anything we didn?t sell, but we were dealing with huge num bers. It?d kill us to take back all the productsAlden?s fears faded as Skullcandy became the No. 1 headphone seller in those stores andtripled its revenue to $120 million in one year. His key insight was that headphones weren?tgadgets; they were a fashion accessory“. In the beginning,” he says,“ that little white wire that said youha d an iPod ---that was cool. But now wearing the white bud means you?re just like everyone else. Headphones occupy this critical piece of cranial real estate and are highly visible”.Today, Skullcandy is America's second-largest headphone supplier, after Sony. With 79 employees, the compan y is bigger than Alden ever imagined.86.Alden came up with the idea of a new kind of headphone because he ______.A. was no longer in snowboarding business.B. had no other business opportunities.C. was very fond of modern music.D. saw an inconvenience among mobile users.87.The new headphone was originally designed for ______.A. snowboarders.B. motorcyclists.C.mountain hikers. D.marathon runners.88.Did Alden solve the money problem? ______.A. He sold his house and his cars.B. Factories could ship products before being paid.C. He borrowed money from a mortgage company.D. He borrowed money from his wife's family.89.What did Alden do to promote sales in FYE stores? ______.A. He spent more money on product advertising.B. He promised to buy back products not sold.C. He agreed to sell products at a discount.D. He improved the colour design of the product.90.Alden sees headphones as ______.A. a sign of self-confidence.B. a symbol of status.C. part of fashion.D. a kind of device.TEXT CI was standing in my kitchen wondering what to have for lunch when my friend Taj called.“ Sit down, ” she said. I thought she was going to tell me she had just gotten the haircut from hell. Ilaughed and said,“It can't be that bad”.But it was. Before the phone call, I had 30 years of retirement saving in a“safe” fund witha brilliant financial guru (金融大亨) .When I put down the phone, my savings weregone. I felt as if I had died and, for some unknown reason, was still breathing. SinceBernie Madoff?s arrest on charges of running a $65 million Ponzi scheme, I'veread many articles about how we investors should have known what was going on. I wishI could say I had reservations about Madoff before“the Call” , but I did not.On New Year's Eve, three weeks after we lost our savings, six of us Madoff people gathered atTaj's house for dinner. As we were sitting around the table, someone asked,“If you could haveyour money back right now, but it would mean giving up what you have learned by losing it,would you take the money or would you take what losing the money has given you?”My husband was still in financial shock. He said, “ I just want the money back.” I wasn't certain where I sto od. I knew that losing our money had cracked me wide open.?dI been walking around like what the Buddhists call a hungry ghost: always focused on the bite that was yet to come, not the one in my mouth. No matter how much I ate or had or experienced, it didn?t satisfy me, because I wasn?t really taking it in, wasn't absorbing it. Now I was forced to pay attention. Still, I couldn't honestly say that if someone had offered me the money bac k, I would turn it down.But the other four all said that what they were seeing about themselves was incalculable, andthey didn?t think it would have become apparent without the ground of financial stability beingripped out from underneath them.My friend Michael said,I ?d started to get complacent. It?s as if the muscles of my heart started to atrophy(萎缩) . Now they?re awake, alive— and I don?t want to go back.”Theseweren?tjust empty words. Michael and his wife needed to take in boarders to meet their expenses. Taj was so broke tha t she was moving into someone?s garage apartment in three weeks. Three friends had declared bankruptcy andweren't sure where or how they were going to live.91.What did the author learn from Taj?s call?A. had got an awful haircut.B. They had lost their retirement savings.C. Taj had just retired from work.D. They were going to meet for lunch.92.How did the author feel in the following weeks?A. Angry.B.Disappointed.C.Indifferent.D.Desperate.93.According to the passage, to which was she“ forced to pay attention”?A. Her friends.B. Her husband.C.Her lost savings. D.Her experience.94.Which of the following statements is CORRECT about her friends?A. Her friends valued their experience more.B. Her friends felt the same as she did.C. Her friends were in a better financial situation.D Her friends were more optimistic than she.95.What is the message of the passage?A. Desire for money is human nature.B. One has to be decisive during crises.C. Understanding gained is more important than money lost.D. It is natural to see varied responses to financial crises.TEXT DIn the 19th century, there used to be a model of how to be a good person. There are all these torrents of passion flowing through you. Your job, as captain of your soul, is to erect dams to keep these passions in check. Your jo b is to just say no to laziness, lust, greed, drug use and the other sins.These days that model is out of fashion. You usually can?t change your behaviour by simply resolving to doso mething. Knowing what to do is not the same as being able to do it.Your willpower is not like a dam that can block the torrent of self-indulgence. It's more like a muscle, which ti res easily. Moreover, you're a social being. If everybody around you is overeating, you?ll probably do so, too. The 19th-century character model was based on an understanding of free will. Today, weknow that free will is bounded. People can change their lives, but ordering change is notsimple because many things, even within ourselves, are beyond our direct control.Much of our behaviour, for example, is guided by unconscious habits. Researchers atDuke University calculated that more than 40 percent of the actions we take are governed byhabit, not actual decisions. Researchers have also come to understand the structure of habits—cue, routine, reward.You can change your own personal habits. If you leave running shorts on the floor atnight, that'll be a cue to go running in the morning. Don?t try to ignore your afternoon snackcraving. Every time you feel the cue for a snack, insert another routine. Take a walk.Their research thus implies a different character model, which is supposed to manipulate。

igcse考试
igcse考试IGCSE(International General Certificate of Secondary Education)是国外14岁至16岁全世界考试最多人数的体系之一,是CIE(Cambridge International examination), 剑桥全球测试的一部分。
其证书,只要是说英文的国家地区均会得到承认,该考试相当于我们理解的"SSAT",唯一不同的是:若同学想申请英国名校剑桥,牛津大学等相近英系大学,此考试成绩是申请的重要参考之一。
因中英教育体系的不同,高中的GPA成绩换算,英国无标准,不能准确了解学员的智力和学术能力,所以该考试成绩很有必要。
定义中国鲜有人知道IGCSE,大部分人知道的是SAT,因为SAT是进美国大学必不可少的。
但是想进英系大学,如剑桥,牛津大学的人应关心一下。
在IGCSE里,有64个可选科目,你可以在有限度的情况下自由选择,限度是:英文和数学必修,但英文和数学各有3个不同的选择。
IGCSE 至始至终都是要培养学生的创新能力和爱好,所以有64 个科目可选。
两年之后,你会去接受剑桥教授出的考卷,其中一个paper是一个小时,很简单;另一个paper是2个半小时,非常难写完。
之后考卷被送往剑桥去改。
1~3个月之后你会收到他们给你的证书。
证书上有几个不同的级别(以百分比来算)A star: 90%以上A:70%~89%B:60%~69%C:50%~59%D:42%~49%E:35%~41%F:25%~34%G:10%~24%U:小于10%这只是一个参考值,实际情况要看当年全球考生的成绩而定,实际值和此数据相差不会很大.GCSE的终级目标是给AS,A一个很好的奠基,之后去读AS和A,用AS和A 的成绩去大学。
AS和A的程序和IGCSE基本相同,但难度不同。

This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and candidates, to indicate the requirements of the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began, which would have considered the acceptability of alternative answers. Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner Report for Teachers.
