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 the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneDebate is a valuable way to practise communicating. It can also bring long-lasting rewards,especially for people working with Western businesses. The main activity of debate is presenting one' s opinion and suppmting it with evidence,such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the "Discover Debate" method. He says debateis important to understanding how people communicate in Western business.Successful debaters learn how to give their opinkm,reasans and support."What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking orapproach to discussion and how to interact ( 交流 ) with someone else' s opinion, rather than brushtheir opinion aside. "Debate skills are also important in selling a product, he says. In that situation, the judges are thecustomem. "So on Monday, for example, one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they" ll make as strong a ease as they can. On Tuesday, thenext day, another company will come in and present their ease to thecustomer. Usually the party that can present the strongest case wins ”Debate also strengthens critical thinking. In other words, it helps studentslearn to ask questionsand try to understand someone' s reasons andevidence.lift-. Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listencarefully to what other people are saying. Then, they look for the weak pointsin someone else' s opinion or argument. He says debate teaches a systematicway of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else' s point of view.Mr. Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind. "There' s anexpression in English : don' t criticize another person before you havewalked in their shoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is, itputs us in another person' s shoes. "36.According to Paragraph 1 ,what is thepurpose of debate? A. To bring long-lastingmaterial rewards.B. To present evidence such as statistics and facts.C. To respond to questions in a systematic way.D. To persuade people to accept your opinions.37. Why is debate important.9A. It helps people understand others better.B. It allows people to present their opinions.C. It develops one' s thinking and communicative competence.D. It gives one the opportunity to brush others' opinion aside.38.What does the underlined word "case" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Container.B. Evidence.C. Problem.D. Product.39 .What can debaters benefit from "walking in another person' s shoes" .9A. Becoming more broad-minded.B. Developing criticalthinking.C. Finding others' weak points.D. Trying out others'methods.Passage TwoWe all love a hero, and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes ofall. You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone, risking--and at times losing--their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups, or from the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound, Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Belgian Malinois--all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty, and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell--to better locate lost individuals — and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals, they serve in many different fields, including specialist search, snow slide rescue, dead body location, and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker, a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength, the dog must be swift, confident, easily trainable, adaptable, and have a high level ofstamina (耐力 ) and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability toengage infriendly play during "down" time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training tobe fit for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted. Certification trainingcan take from two to three years, working three to four hours a day, threeto six days a week, often in group,team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescuetraining, for instance,includes "air scenting"--where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim' s scent ( 气味 )and thenfollow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsedbuildings and snow slide.40 . Rescue dogs are chosen probablybecause__A. they are loyalB. they are braveC. they have amazing appearancesD. they have good eyesight41 . What does "faint-hearted" in Paragraph5 mean??A. Courageous.B. Cowardly.C. Energetic.D. Slow.42 . Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A. Sharp hearing.B. Swift movement.C. Extraordinary smelling.D. A strong memory.43.What is the passage mainly about?A.Selection process of rescue dogs.B.Qualities and training of rescue dogs.C.Risks rescue dogs are faced with.D.Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeEating an apple a day doesn' t keep the doctor away, but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year. That ' saccording to a new study that investigates whether there' s any truth inthe old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University ofMichigan School of Nursing,asked 8,399 participants to answer surveyquestions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consumingat least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7,646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctorand trips to the drug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be 27%less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. "Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctoraway. However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day doesappear to use fewer prescription medications," the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While applesdo not compete with oranges, theydocontain some immune (免疫的 ) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eatersvisit the druggist less. With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, anapple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2diabetes ( 二型糖尿病 ) ,improved lung function and a lower risk of colon ( 结肠 ) cancer.44. How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A. 149.B. 7,646.C. 753.D. 8,399.45.What is the conclusion of the study?A.Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults' trips to the doctor.B.An apple a day does keep the doctor away.C.Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.46.What can we learn fromthe passage? A. Apples arebetter than oranges.B. Apples do have some vitamin C to increase theimmune system. C. Apples can help cure certaindiseases.D. Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.47. What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A. Objective.B. Creative. C． subjective D ． persuasivePassage FourSometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government' s efforts to improve schools:new standards and tests to be applied, strict teacher evaluations, and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees, not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas--which is what fear does to us--research onschool reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage schoolleaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform effortsof twelve Chicago public schools, Bryk and Schneider found that enablingpositive social relationships between the adults was the key to successfulschool improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing:psychological safety or safety to speak one's mind,to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn' tworking,to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn' t come easily to schools. According to Bryk andSchneider, theadults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity （正直 ).Thechalleage is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught, each teacher had different expectations about howmuch effortteachers should put into their work--a big difference between the teachers who left af~the last belland those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are uncoasci orunspoken, itbecomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person' s behavior. As we all Imam,assumptions are often wrong. For example, parentsand teachers my think the principal taml particular decision based on hiscareer advancement rather than hat" s best for the studeata. don't feelpsychologically safe to question our assumptions and e~aecmtiatm, trustitiea am the window and our relationships suffer.48.According to Paragraph 1,why does the author scratch his head?A.Because he doesn' t know what to do once schools are closed.B.Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C.Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D.Because he is not in favor of the government' s reform efforts.49.According to Bryk and Schneider, what was most important for successfulschool improvemt?A.New standards and tests in schools.B.Positive social relationships.C.Strict teacher and student evaluations.D.Assistance of the government.50.What is meant by trust in school?A.Freedom to express one' s views,B.Extra effort teachers put into their work.C.Independence of the teachers in schools.D.Unconscious and unspoken expectations.51.What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person's behavior?A.They should be trusted.B.They are often bold.C.They are often incorrect.D.They should be encouraged.Passage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest, hest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe, Latin America,Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role, but these folks also have strong social ties ,tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones, asdescribed in author Dan Buettner" s latest book, The Blue Zones Solution,we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact,Buettner' s Blue Zones Beverage Rule--a kind of guideline summarized fromhis 15 or so years of studying these places--is:" Drink coffee for breakfast, teain the afternoon, wine at 5 p. tm"Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea.Researchers are most enthusi-astic almt the components in green tea, aswell as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okina~vans in Japanbreak 1007 Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke,heartdisease attd several cancers. One review study also found that drinkinggreen tea can slightlyimprove metabolism ( 新陈代谢 ).If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria, the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean, you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves.Instead, Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one freshherb that they have picked themselves that day--either rosemary, wildsage,oregano,nmrjotmn,mint or dandelion,all p lants that may have anti-inflammatory(消炎的 )properties,which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikaria' s very low dementia(痴呆 )rate,since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.52.What does the underlined word "centenarians" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.People who have secret lifestyles.B.People who enjoy physical exercise.C.People who are one hundred years old or older.D.People who carry the gene for being slim.53.According to Paragraph 3 ,what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A. In the morning.B. Any time of a day.C. In the early evening.D. In the afternoon.54What may the tea Ikarians drink.daily help?A. To improve metabolism.B. To lower blood pressure.C. To lower life stress.D. To improve social relationships.55 .What might be the best title ofthe passage?A. Tea-Drinking TipsB. Lifestyle Secrets ofIkariansC. Tea-Drinking Ceremony inOkinawa D. Blue Zones SolutionsⅤ.Daily Conversation ( 15 points)Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete thefollowing dialoaue by blackenina the corresuondina letter on the Answer Sheet.Woman : Hello, Mr. Johnson' s office.56 ？Man : Goodmorning.57 ？Woman : Sorry,he' s in a meeting atthe moment.58 ？Man:Yes.

Massachusetts. Her parents valued education and insisted on giving her the same quality of education that boys receivedHer father. William Mitchell, was an astronomer and teacher himself. When he built his own school, Maria became a student and also a teaching assistant to him. At home.

Over the next tweny years. she further developed her interest in reading as many books as she could.She spent her nights watching the sky closely with her father.On October 1, 1847,Maria discovered a comet(彗星)by merely using a two-inch telescope. Some years before, King Frederick VI of Denmark had set up prizes to each discover of a"telescopic comet". The prize was to be given to the"first discoverer"of each such comet because comets were often discovered by more than one person.There was once a question of who should be the winner.

Creative thinking is one of the most important skills that students can learn in art courses.Finally, students who are trained in art class have interesting mental habits. They low to work on a task for a long time and how to continue to work even if they are discouraged. They are better for creating a link between the classroom and the outside world.

The Plaza closed for repair in 2005. When it reopened two years later,more than half of it had been changed into one of these modern condo hotels.Here's how it works: You buy what equals to an apartment(公寓).

The rest of the time,the hotel's workers can book guests into your place, just as they would in the regular hotel's rooms.

While others pay off your mortgage(房贷)the rest of the year.So far,a great monry of the nation's condo hotel units have been purchased not by rich people but richer companiesm, including foreign ones.

Each passage is followed byfour questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A，B， C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneDebate is a valuable way to practise communicating. It can also bring long-lasting rewards，especially for people working with Western businesses. The main activity of debate is presenting one’s opinion and supporting it with evidence，such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the“Discover Debate”method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business. Successful debaters learn how to give their opinion，reasons and support.“What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact （交流） with someone else’s opinion，rather than brush their opinion aside.”Debate skills are also important in selling a product，he says. In that situation，the judges are the customers.“So on Monday， for example，one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they’ll make as strong a case as they can. On Tuesday，the next day，another company will come in and present their case to the customer. Usually the party that can present the strongest case wins.”Debate also strengthens critical thinking. In other words，it helps students learn to ask questions and try to understand someone’s reasons and evidence.Mr. Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying. Then，they look for the weak points in someone else’s opinion or argument. He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else’s point of view. Mr. Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind.“There’s an expression in English：don’t criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is，it puts us in another person’s shoes.”36.According to Paragraph 1，what is the purpose of debate?A. To bring long-lasting material rewards.B. To persuade people to accept your opinions.C. To respond to questions in a systematic way.D. To present evidence such as statistics and facts.37.Why is debate important?A. It helps people understand others better.B. It allows people to present their opinions.C. It gives one the opportunity to brush others’opinion aside.D. It develops one’s thinking and communicative competence.38.What does the underlined word“case”in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Container.B. Product.C. Problem.D. Evidence.39.What can debaters benefit from“walking in another person’s shoes?”A. Becoming more broad-minded.B. Developing critical thinking.C. Finding others’weak points.D. Trying out others’methods.Passage TwoWe all love a hero，and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all. You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone，risking—and at times losing—their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups，or from the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound，Labrador Retriever， Newfoundland，German Shepherd，Golden Retriever， and Belgian Malinois—all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength，loyalty，and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell—to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals，they serve in many different fields，including specialist search，snow slide rescue，dead body location，and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker， a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength，the dog must be swift，confident，easily trainable，adaptable，and have a high level of stamina （耐力） and endurance. A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during“down”time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many，many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted. Certification training can take from two to three years，working three to four hours a day，three to six days a week，often in group，team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue training，for instance，includes“air scenting”—where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim’s scent （气味） and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.40.Rescue dogs are chosen probably because .A. they are loyalB. they are braveC. they have amazing appearancesD. they have good eyesight41.What does“faint-hearted”in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Courageous.B. Energetic.C. Cowardly.D. Slow.42.Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A. Sharp hearing. B. Swift movement.C. A strong memory. D. Extraordinary smelling.43.What is the passage mainly about?A. Selection process of rescue dogs.B. Risks rescue dogs are faced with.C. Qualities and training of rescue dogs.D. Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeEating an apple a day doesn’t keep the doctor away，but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year That’s according to a new study that investigates whether there’s any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis，of the University of Michigan School of Nursing，asked 8，399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters，consuming at least 149 g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7，646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year，the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption，though.“Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However，the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications，”the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges，they do contain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C，which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8 mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit，an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes （二型糖尿病），improved lung function and a lower risk of colon （结肠） cancer.44.How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A. 149.B. 753. C. 7,646.D. 8,399.45.What is the conclusion of the study?A. Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults’trips to the doctor.B. A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.C. Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D. An apple a day does keep the doctor away.46.What can we learn from the passage?A. Apples are better than oranges.B. Apples can help cure certain diseases.C. Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.D. Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.47.What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A. Objective.B. Creative.C. Subjective.D. Persuasive.Passage FourSometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government’s efforts to improve schools：new standards and tests to be applied，strict teacher evaluations，and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees，not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas—which is what fear does to us—research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools，Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing：psychological safety or safety to speak one’s mind，to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn’t working，to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn’t come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider，the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity （正直）. The challenge is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught，each teacher had different expectations about how much extra effort teachers should put into their work—a big difference between the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are unconscious or unspoken，it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person’s behavior. As we all know，assumptions are often wrong. For example，parents and teachers may think the principal made a particular decision based on his career advancement rather than what’s best for the students. If we don’t feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations，trust flies out the window and our relationships suffer.48.According to Paragraph 1，why does the author scratch his head?A. Because he doesn’t know what to do once schools are closed.B. Because he is not in favor of the government’s reform efforts.C. Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D. Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.49.According to Bryk and Schneider，what was most important for successful school improvement?A. New standards and tests in schools. B. Strict teacher and student evaluations.C. Positive social relationships. D. Assistance of the government.50.What is meant by trust in school?A. Freedom to express one’s views.B. Extra effort teachers put into their work.C. Independence of the teachers in schools.D. Unconscious and unspoken expectations.51. W hat does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person’s behavior?A. They should be trusted. B. They are often bold.C. They should be encouraged. D. They are often incorrect.Passage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe，Latin America，Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role，but these folks also have strong social ties，tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones，as described in author Dan Buettner’s latest book，The Blue Zones Solution，we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact，Buettner’s Blue Zones Beverage Rule—a kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of studying these places—is：“Drink coffee for breakfast，tea in the afternoon，wine at 5 p.m.”Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea. Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea，as well as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break 100? Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke，heart disease and several cancers. One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism（新陈代谢）.If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria，the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean，you won’t be offered any tea made with tea leaves.
