They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teachhim how to do it properly.4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directlyrelevant to their assigned tasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.5. Most of them displayed the same attitude as the staff atthe Jinling Hotel.6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teachthe child that on can solve a problem effectively by oneself.7. He means that this incident pointed to importantdifferences in educational and artistic practices between China and the USA.8. The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child by guiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9. One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish and animals skillfully and confidently; in a second example, calligraphers 9 and 10 years old were producing works; and in a third, young artists work on perfecting their craft for several hours a day.10. Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11. This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12. The author makes the suggestion that we should strike a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1) The text begins with an anecdote.2) His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3) He winds up the text with a suggestion in the form of a question.2.

It is also helpful to summarize our experience as we go along, for in so doing, we can figure out which way of learning is more effective and will produce the most desirable result. As long as we keep working hard on it, we will in due course accomplish the task of mastering English.Unit2 ValuesPart II Reading TaskComprehensionContent QuestionPair Work1.

words.Taken individually,words have6 meaning until they are strung together into phrased,sentences and paragraphs.7 ,however,the untrained reader does not read groups of words.He laboriously reads one word at a time,often regressing to8 words or passages.Regression,the tendency to look back over9 you have just read,is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which 10 down the speed of reading is vocalization - sounding each word either orally or mentally as 11 reads.To overcome these bad habits,some reading clinics use a device called an 12 ,which moves a bar(or curtain)down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 13 the reader finds comfortable,in order to "stretch" him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 14 word-by-word reading,regression and subvocalization,practically impossible.At first 15 is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas and concepts,you will not only read faster, 16 your comprehension will improve.Many people have found 17 reading skill drastically improved after some training. 18 Charlce Au,a business manager,for instance,his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 19 the training,now it is an excellent 1,378 words a1.A.applying B.Doing C.Offering D.getting2.A.quickly B.Easily C.roughly D.decidedly3.A.good B.curious C.poor D.urgent4.A.training B.habits C.situations D.custom5.A.lies B.bines C.touches D.involves6.A.some B.a lot C.little D.dull7.A.fortunately B.In fact C.Logically D.Unfortunately8.A.reuse B.reread C.rewrite D.recite9.A.what B.which C.that D.if10.A.scales B.cuts C.slows D.measures11.A.some one B.one C.he D.reader12.A.accelerator B.actor C.amplifier D.observer13.A.then B.as C.beyond D.than14.A.enabling B.leadingv C.making D.indicating15.A.meaning B.prehension C.gist D.regression16.A.but B.nor C.or D.for17.A.our B.your C.their D.such a18.A.Look at B.Take C.Make D.Consider19.A.for B.in C.after D.before20.A.master B.go over C.present D.get through一、阅读理解题练习题Passage 1It was unfortunate that,after so trouble-free an arrival,he should stumble(磕绊)in the dark as he was rising and severely twist his ankle on a piece of rock.After the first shock the pain became bearable,and he gathered up his parachute(降落伞)before limping into the trees to hide it as best as he could.The hard ground and the deep darkness made it almost impossible to do this efficiently.The pine needles lay several inches deep,so he simply piled them on top of the parachute,cutting the short twigs that he could feel around his legs,and spreading them on top of the needles.He was not sure if it would stay buried,but he could do nothing else about it.After limping for some distance from his parachute he began to make his way downhill through the trees.He had to find out where he was,and then decide what to do next.But walking downhill on a rapidly swelling ankle soon proved to be almost beyond his power.He dragged his legs with increasing difficulty,walking in long side-way movements across the slope,which meant taking more steps but less painful ones.By the time he cleared the trees and reached the valley,day was breaking.Mist hung in soft sheets across the fields.Small cottages and farm houses grouped around a village church,the spire(尖顶)on its top pointing high into the cold winter air to greet the morning.“I can’t go much further,”John Harding thought.“Someone is bound to find me.What can I do?I must get a rest before I go on.They’ll look for me high up there in the mountains where the plane crashed.I bet they’re out looking for it already.They’re sure to find the chute in the end.So they’ll know I wasn’t killed and must be somewhere.They’ll think I’m hiding up there in the trees and rocks and look for me there.I’ll go down to the village.If I’m lucky my foot will be good enough by the evening and I can manage to get to the border.”He could hear the faint echoes of voices far above him on the mountainside,startling him after great silence.Looking up,he saw lights like pinpoints moving across the face of the mountain in the gray light.The road was deserted,and he struggled along,still almost invisible in the first light,easing his aching foot wherever he could,avoiding stones and rough places,and limping quietly and painfully towards the village.He reached the church at last.A great need for peace almost drew him inside,but he knew that would not do.Instead,he limped along its walls towards a very old buildinga short distance from the church.It seemed to have stood there forever,as if it had grown out of the hillside.It had the same air of timelessness as the church.John Harding pushed open the heavy wooden door and slipped inside.1.In spite of his bad ankle Harding was able to _____.A.walk in a direction that was less steepB.bear the pain without changing directionC.bury his parachute perfectly in a safe placeD.check the surroundings and locate where he was2.Why was his attention drawn to the mountain again?_____A.He was surprised to notice some torches moving around.B.He was astonished to hear some voices far away.C.He could see the searchers’ faces in spite of the poor light.D.He could feel a shower of small rocks falling from above.3.Which of the following do you think John Harding was?_____A.An escaped prisoner trying to hide away. B.A criminal on the run from the police.C.An airman landing in an enemy country area.D.A spy in search of an important person.4.Harding’s plan was _____.A.to cross the border as soon as possible B.to rest in the church as long as he could C.to have his injured foot treated D.to stay in the village for the day5.We can tell from the story that _____.A.Harding had a cool head in emergency B.Harding was strongly against warC.the plane crash took place at dawn D.it was unwise to bury the chutePassage 2The government may control prices when there is a problem such as rapidly increasing rents or a rise in the cost of living.When the government controls prices,there is no longer a normal relationship between the price of a product and the quantity consumers will buy.Government controls may help in an emergency(紧急情况).However,some economists believe that controls can have negative effects over a long period of time.In cities with rent control,the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord(房主)can charge for an apartment.Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartments.Their rent cannot increase;therefore,they are not in danger of losing their homes.However,the critics(批评者)say that after a long time,rent control may have negative effects.Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits.Therefore,they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits.They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled.As a result,new apartments are not built.Many people who need apartments cannot find any.According to the critics,the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about rent control,price control and the minimum wage.The predictions may be correct only if other things are equal.Economists do not agree on some of the predictions.They also do not agree on the value of different decisions.Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it.Economists do agree,however,that there are no simple answers to economic questions.6.According to Paragraph 1,price control _____.A.does more harm than good B.is good in every senseC.is necessary but harmful in the long term D.should be avoided7.It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that _____.A.thanks to rent control,it would be easier for many to find apartmentsB.landlords may take back their apartments if the rent is too lowC.the tighter the rent control is,the fewer new apartments will be builtD.landlords will not invest in other businesses after price control is approved by the government 8.Which of the following do all economists agree on?_____A.Controls can have negative effects over a long period of time.B.The government must take measures to control rent increase.C.The maximum rent system protects people who don’t have their own houses.D.Economic questions are difficult to deal with.9.The attitude of the author to price control is _____.A.subjective B.objective C.indifferent D.supportive10.The purpose of this passage is to _____.A.argue B.persuade C.analyze D.describe附:参考答案附参考答案(一)汉译英1.我们不应该只根据外貌来评论一个人。

In a couple of hours he was going to fly out to France. He was going to be away for at least a year to learn a foreign language and 61 life in a foreign country.It was a milestone in Dan’s li fe, a change from school days to62 .When we were to say goodbye,I 63 closely at his face. I would like to provide him with good64that would last longer than here andnow.But not a sound came over my lips. I 65 motionless and silent, looking 66 my son’s green eyes.I knew that this wasn’t the first time I 67 such an opportunity pass me by. When Daniel was a little boy, I followed him to the bus on the first day in preschool. I 68 the excitement in his hand that held mine when the bus came round the corner. He looked at me—just 69 he did now. And then he boarded the bus and 70 . The bus drove away. And I hadn’t71 a word.Some ten years later, a similar episode 72 .

Why does it have to be so 77 to tell your son how you feel? My mouth was 78 , and I knew I would only say a few words.“Dan,”I79 stammered out(结结巴巴地说),“if I had the choice myself, I would 80 you.”That was all I could say.

So both of them agreed not to83 after choosing a 84 at every fork(岔路口).A road sign at the first fork 85 one way to the lion area and the other to the tiger hill. They decided on the former after a 86 discussion because li ons were “the king of the grassland”. Thesecond showed a division going separately to the panda and peac ock.

Many countries fought for the power andriches of the newly discovered Americas. Men introduced new ideas whichdemanded great changes in older ideas. Despite these problems and possiblybecause of them, wonderful things were done by the greatest of men.It is indeed difficult to know why in some periods you find many menof genius while in others you may find few. The "Age of Genius", however,produced some of the greatest thinkers, painters, authors, andscientists.In Italy during the High Renaissance (文艺复兴), a period of the "Ageof Genius", three famous painters started their work. They were Leonardoda Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.Leonardo da Vinci is famous not only for his beautiful paintings butalso for his talent in the sciences. One of his best - known painting isthe "Mona Lisa." Michelangelo was also a man of many talents. He was anartist; he wrote poems; he drew plans for buildings; and he worked withother forms of art. His best- known work is the painting on the ceilingof the Sistine Chapel in Rome (罗马西斯教堂).Raphael was known for his painting. He made well-balanced picturesout of many different actions.101.Another name for the 16th century is the .A.Classical AgeB.Middle AgesC."Age of Genius"D.Age of Renaissance102.To know why in some periods you find many intelligent men and few in other is .A.an easy thing to doB. a very difficult thing to doC.not importantD.unnecessary103.Which of the following statements is implied in the first paragraphof the passage?A.Geniuses are born talented.B.Geniuses are often produced in the same age.C.Fighting for the riches of the newly - discovered Americas produced geniuses.D.A period during which new ideas were replacing older ideas might produce geniuses.104.is famous for his paintings and for his talent in science.A.RaphaelB.Leonardo da VinciC.MichelangeloD.Mona Lisa105.Michelangelo is known for .A.his Mona LisaB.his paintings in Sistine ChapelC.his well-balanced picturesD.his contributions to scienceSometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch(门廊)will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions( 预言)from communication experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of newsevents.Most of the technology is available(可用的)now, but convincing(说服)more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the nextstep. But resistance to computer newspaper may be stronger from withinjournalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the presentgeneration of journalists and publishers will have to die off before thenext generation realize that the newspaper industry is no longer anewspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditionalnewspapers unavoidable.Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replacenewsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to completethe changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapershave established financial(财经的)interests in the paper industry.106.The best title for this passage is ./doc/3d18748196.html,puter Newspapers are Well LikedB.Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on ComputerC.Newspapers Are out of FashionD.New Communications Technology107.It might take 30 to 40 years for computer newspapers to replacetraditional newspapers, because .A.it is technologically impossible now/doc/3d18748196.html,puter newspapers are too expensiveC.there is strong resistance from both the general population and professional journalistsD.traditional newspapers are easy to read108.Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?A.They are cheaper than traditional newspapersB.They are very convenient to useC.You can get more information from them quicklyD.You can easily save information for future use109.Journalists are not eager to accept computer newspapers,because .A.they don’t know how to use computersB.they think computer newspapers take too much time to readC.they think the new technology is badD.they have been trained to write for traditional newspapers110.We can infer from the passage that .A.all technological changes are goodB.all technologies will eventually replace old onesC.new technologies will eventually replace old onesD.traditional newspapers are here to stay for another centuryPassage2Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a greatdeal.One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personalworth, for self-esteem(自尊心) is the basis of a good mental health. Ayoungster who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighterbrothers, sisters, or cousins, will not feel confident and became soafraid of failing, that he or she won’t try at all. Of course,they shouldbe corrected when they do wrong; this is the way children learn. But thecriticism should be balanced with praises.Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself;it’s like being in a car without brakes(刹车).The parent who says “No”when other parents say “Yes”sends a double message. He is also saying :“I love you, and I’m ready to risk your anger, because I don’t wantyou to get into trouble.”Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body,and enough information about sex to balance the wrong information thatthey will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy(隐私权)and respect for theirpersonal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted,not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets. If a motherfeels that she must rea d her daughte’r s diary to know what is going on,the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to buildtheir lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinionsof others; it means respecting elders, teachers, and the law. The bestway to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie.A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towel(s 毛巾)f r o m a h o t e l w i l l t h i n k t h a t i t i s a l l r igh t t o s t e a l.A y o u n g s t e r w h o s e e s n o l a u g h t e r a n d n o l o v ei n t h e h o m e w i l lh a v e a d i f f i c u l t t i m e l a u g h i n g a n d l o v i n g.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owethe child something. And if you give him his due, h’e ll have somethingof value to pass along to your grandchildren.111.A ccording to the passage, parents owe their children the followingthings except .A. carsB. privacyC. respect of selfD. informationabout their body112.The writer thinks that teenagers are frightened when they are in charge of themselves because .A.they don’t know how to stop a car without brakesB.there is no one to guide and discipline themC.they are afraid of being left aloneD.there is no one to ask for help when in trouble.113.W hich of the following ways is advised for parents to show love totheir children?A.Saying “Yes” to everything the children ask forB.Never embracing older childrenC.Refusing something to the childrenD.Never criticizing children.114.T he word “due” in the last paragraph means .A.something one should do or finish before a fixed timeB.reasonable explanations or plansC.what must be given to someone because it is right or wrongD.the money to be paid115.W hich of the following is true according to the passage?A.Parents prefer to let their children be in charge of their own livesat an early age.B.Children learn much by seeing what their parents do.C.Children shouldn’t be corr ected because it destroys theirself-esteem.D.It is better to compare a youngster to his bright brothers becauseit makes him try harder.Stage plays, at first, seem a lot like films. Both use actors and dialogue and scenery. But if you try to make a film by setting up a camera in front of the stage, you will find it won’t work. A film made in this way will leave the audience cold. And even worseyou’ll be wasting a powerful tool —the camera.A stage is actually a box. One side of the box has been removed so the audience can see what’s going on inside. The actors remain at a fixed audience. In the film, however, the camera can bring the audience up close and fix their attention on small but important things: a frightened look,a whisper, a trembling of hands.The camera offers the film maker freedom allowing him to move easily across barriers(界限) of time and space. He can show his action in real cities and on real farms. He can also use the camera to change the scene dozens of times in one film. No expert of the stage can do this.116.The main idea of the text is that .A.stage plays and films are two different kinds of artB.it is always disappointing to turn play into filmsC.films have certain advantages(长处) over stage playsD.the camera has made film making easy and possible117.What is wrong with making a film by setting up a camera before thestage?A.Fewer and fewer people will go to the theatre.B.The audience cannot see what is going on the stage.C.The scene cannot be changed from time to time.D.The powerful camera cannot be made good use of.118.Which of the following can show that the camera is a powerful tool?A.It can move easily.B.It can make small things look larger.C.It can show things in the future.D.It can give us a scene of realism.119.In what way are plays different from film?A.Films often use real scenery while plays don’t.B.Films can show the past while plays can’t.C.Films change scenes while plays don’t.D.Film audience can move while play audience can’t.120. A suitable title for this text is .A. Stage Plays and FilmB. The Powerful CameraC. Fewer Plays, More FilmsD. Less Waste, More FreedomPassage3If an American is satisfied with you, he will put his thumb and forefinger into a circle. That means OK. But in Brazil, the very sign is considered to be rude. In Poland, a guest usually presents flowers to his hostess. The number must be an odd(奇数) one. Besides, the hostess isn’t expected to remove the cover of the bunch of flowers. And usually, red rose is a sign of love.Usually we nod to express our agreement and shake our heads to show disapproval. To our surprise these body movements mean the opposite in Bulgaria(保加利亚).The differences in customs and cultures in the world are really noticeable. We should learn more about them to avoid them and to avoidembarrassment(窘迫). Then, would you please remember: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.121.In Poland, if a man gives some odd red roses to woman as a present, it means that he .A. will invite her to a dinner partyB. has not been in love withherC. will invite her to a ballD. has fallen in love withher122.If a Brazilian puts his thumb and index(食指) into a circle, it shows that he you.A. will be friends withB. is not satisfied withC. is willing to helpD. is satisfied with123.In Poland, it is for the hostess to remove the cover of the bunch of flower somebody presented to her.A. impoliteB. politeC. expectedD. unexpected124.In Bulgaria, if a man nods, it means that he with you.A. will have a talkB. disagreesC. will shake handsD.agrees125.The sentence “When in Rome, do as the Romans d o”means that .A.we should learn from the RomansB.we should work as the Romans doC.we should obey its customs when we are entering a country.D.we have been RomansEvery artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want so say it well, but he wants itto be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand —he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him. What visual (视觉的)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 thata certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions。

For each question, there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the ONE that you think is the best answer.Your success in your studies will also depend upon your motivation(动机). This need or desire to achieve a certain goal can make the difference between success and failure. Motivation can come from two sources: from inside of you or from outside of you. In the first case, motivation comes from your hopes and expectations, from your desire to do something or to be someone. Study purposes that result from personal inner desires are individual, and various. If you have not already done so, you should think carefully about what you hope to gain from your studies, and why. You should set a goal and direct all your study efforts toward reaching it. A goal of this kind is important because it will determine the direction and degree of your motivation for study.Not everyone is highly motivated from within and no one is continuously motivated from within. Fortunately there is another sourceof motivation: from outside. In education the most obvious kind of outside motivation is grades. For many students, course grades are an immediate, short-range motivation for study. This is one of the reasons for examinations and grades, but they must not become a goal in themselves. Grades help to motivate you from day to day, but they are only small, artificial steps to your ultimate goal. It would be wrong to set grades as your only ambition.A textbook like this cannot provide you with motivation; that must come from yourself. But as an encouragement, it is useful to know that good study habits depend upon good motivation. And good study habits are important because they help you get more done in less time.

This need or desire to achieve a certain goal can make the difference between success and failure. Motivationcan come from two sources: from inside of you or from outside of you. In the first case, motivation comes from your hopes and expectations, from your desire to do something or to be someone. Study purposes that result from personal inner desires are individual, and various. If you have not already done so, you should think carefully about what you hope to gain from your studies, and why. You should set a goal and direct all your study efforts toward reaching it. A goal of this kind is important because it will determine the direction and degree of your motivation for study.Not everyone is highly motivated from within and no one is continuously motivated from within. Fortunately there is another source of motivation: from outside. In education the most obvious kind of outside motivation is grades.

It is the financial center of the U.S.A, exerting a significant influence upon the world’ s economy. Hetty Green, who was born in 1835, was nicknamed the Wizard(奇才) of Wall Street. She became almost a legendary figure in Wall Street, because she made a lot of money buying and selling shares in companies.Hetty Green began making money when her father died and she inherited allhis money. By investing it wisely, she soon built up her fortune to over 100 million dollars. However, she hated spending money on herself or on her family. Actually, she hated spending money on everything except buying shares. She wasso mean that when her son Edward broke his leg, she would not send for a doctor. She did not want to have to pay a doctor’s bill. She refused to send her son to a good hospital. Instead, she took the boy to a free charity hospital. There he did not get very good treatment and, to save his life, he had to have his leg cut off. Still his mother would not pay for proper hospital treatment. She sent for a doctor who cut off the boy’s leg in her sitting room. It’s incredible, isn’t it?31.Wall Street is .A.the name of Chinatown in New YorkB.the nickname of New YorkC.the financial center of AmericaD.the tourist center of U.S.A32.Hetty Green was nicknamed the Wizard of Wall Street because she .A. made a great fortune with sharesB.inherited a large sum of money from her fatherC.built up a large company on sharesD.was very strange and cruel33.The underlined word “ mean” in the second paragraph probably can bereplaced by .A.sadB. cruelC. disappointedD. ungenerous34.When her son broke his leg, Hetty Green .A.sent him to a large hospitalB.sent for a doctor at onceC.didn’t pay the bill for the doctorD. took him to a charity hospital35.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Hetty Green died a poor old woman.B.Hetty Green preferred money to anything else.C.Hetty Green liked to earn a lot of money so as to live a good life.D.Hetty Green hated her son and refused to take him to a good hospital.Passage 2People once widely believed that intelligent life existed on Mars. The19th-century discovery of what appeared to be geometric designs cut across the surface was taken as evidence. The lines were thought to have been a system of canals that had been built to irrigate the surface. It is now clear that “ canals” —perhaps the most spectacular geologic features of Mars —are natural valleys where ancient rivers once flowed.Another fragmented idea concerns the planet’ s seasonal changes in color. Once attributed to the rapid spread of some life-form, these shifts are now known to develop from the movement of fine dust in the atmosphere.By the close of the 20th century none of the many experiments conducted by spacecraft had ever found persuasive evidence of life. Nevertheless, speculation continued over the existence of some form of life, in either the present or the past. In 1996 scientists discovered organic compounds and minerals in a meteorite(陨石), consisting of Martian rock, that collided with Earth around 11,000 B.C. These compounds suggest that Mars may have been inhabited by organisms more than three billion years ago.36.Why did people in the 19th century believe the existence of intelligentlife on Mars?A.Because the surface of Mars seemed to be geometric.B.Because the lines were drawn across the surface of the planet.C. Because a system of canals was thought to be there.D. Because it was the Martians that built the canals.37.The “canals” on Mars have proved to be according to the passage.A.the minor geologic characteristic of MarsB. natural valleys on the surface of MarsC. rivers that have kept flowing since ancient timesD. a system that irrigates the whole surface38.What were the Mars’ seasonal changes in color believed to be?A.The natural changes on the planet.B.The seasonal cycles.C.The movement of some life form.D.The storm of dust in its atmosphere.39.How is the 1996 discovery related to the possible existence of organisms onMars?A.The meteorite containing organic compounds is part of Mars.B.A Martian rock struck Earth about 11,000 years ago.C.The organisms came back to life after the collision with Earth.D.The inhabiting organisms appeared more than three billion years ago.40.How many arguments in this passage lead to the belief of the existence oflife on Mars?A.Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.Passage 3Have you ever wondered why different animals or pests have their particular colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Birds, especially seagulls, are very fond of locusts, but birds cannot easily catch locusts because locusts change their colors together with the change of the color of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe, locusts take on exactly the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible to the eyes of hunters, because they have the color much like the barks of trees.An even more strange act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it, and it immediately swims away. Thus, it has existed up to now though it is not powerful at all.41.This passage mainly talks about .A.the change of color in locustsB.the protective coloration of animals and pestsC.how a certain sea fish protects itselfD.animals or pests can dye themselves different colors42.Locusts are not easily wiped out by their enemies because .A.they are powerful enoughB.they are dangerous to their enemiesC.they take on the same colors as cropsD. they fly extraordinarily fast43.The pests that have different colors from plants usually appear at nightA.B.their enemies can easily find them and eat themC.they have the habit of coming out in darknessD.it’s ea sy for them to destroy plants in darkness44.Bears and wolves have the same colors as barks of trees because .A.they fear other beastsB.they prefer brown or grey colorsC.they enjoy walking through forests quietlyD.the colors help prevent themselves from being noticed45. A certain fish living in seas has lived through millions of years because.A.it is the most powerful in the seaB.it can swim much faster than any other fishC.it can send out a kind of liquid which makes its enemies unable to find itD.it can send out a kind of liquid which can kill its enemiesPassage 4High school dropouts(辍学者)earn an average of $ 9,000 less per year than graduates. Now a new study dispels a common belief why they quit. It’ s much more basic than flunking out(不及格).Soc iety tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can’t cut it. They are lazy, and perhaps not two bright. So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who quit school about why they left.“ The vast majority actually had pas sing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school.” John Bridgeland, the executive researcher said. About 1 million teens leave school each year. Only about half of African-American and Hispanic(美籍西班牙的)student will receive a diploma, and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision. So, if failing grades don’ t explain why these kids quit, what does? Again,John Bridgeland: “ The most dependable finding was that they were bored.” “ They found classes uninteresting; t hey weren’t inspired or motivated. They didn’t see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives, or to their career aspirations.”The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen, which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit. In the US,only one state,New Mexico,has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate. Only four states: California, Tennessee, Texas and Utah, plus the District of Columbia, require school attendance until age 18, no exceptions, another researcher, says raising the compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school.“ As these dropouts look back,they realize they’ ve made a mistake. And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and it through to the end, is probably helpful measure.”New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18. But critics say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point-the need for reform. It's been called for to reinvent high school education to make it more challenging and relevant, and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something.46.Most high school students drop out of school because__.A.they have failing gradesB.they take no interest in classesC.they are discriminated againstD.they are lazy and not intelligent47.According to the passage,which state has a law requiring school attendance until they graduate?A.New HampshireB. UtahC. New MexicoD. The District of Columbia48.The underlined words “stick it out” probably means “__”.A. complete schoolingB. solve the problemC. love having classesD. believe in themselves49.In the last paragraph, the writer is trying to .A.analyze the reason why students quit schoolB.suggest raising the compulsory attendance ageC.raise awareness of reforming high school educationD.wish to make laws to guarantee no education50.From the passage,we can infer the following EXCEPT that_.A.the grades of most dropouts at school were acceptableB.on average dropouts cannot get good jobsC.classes don't appeal to dropoutsD.about 500, 000 high school dropouts are black and SpanishPassage 5People living on parts of the south coast of England face a serious problem. In 1993,the owners of a large hotel and of several houses discovered, to their horror, that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea had eaten into the soft limestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were studying the problem, the hotel and several houses disappeared altogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea.Erosion(侵蚀) of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people,forecasting the year in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea.Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes. Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases,this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue,they say,until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile,if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertainfuture,apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home.51.What is the cause of the problem that people living on parts of the south coast of England face?A.The rising of the sea level.B.The experts’ lack of knowledge.C.The washing-away of limestone cliffs.D.The disappearance of hotels,houses and gardens.52.The erosion of the white cliffs in the south of England .A.will soon become a problem for people living in central EnglandB. has now become a threat to the local residentsC. can be stopped if proper measures are takenD. is quickly changing the map of England53.The experts’ study on the problem of erosion can.A. warn people whose homes are in dangerB.provide an effective way to slow it downC.help to prevent it from worseningD.lead to its eventual solution54.It is not feasible to build sea defenses to protect against erosion because.A.house agents along the coast do not support the ideaB. it is too costly and will endanger neighboring areasC. the government is too slow in taking actionD. they will be easily knocked down by waves and currents55.According to the author, when buying a house along the south coast of England,people should .A.take the quality of the house into considerationB.guard against being cheated by the house agentC.examine the house carefully before making a decisionD. be aware of the potential danger involvedPassage 6Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.56.Normally a student would at least attend classes each week.A. 36B. 20C. 12D. 1557.According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed .A.to live in a different universityB.to get two degrees from two different universitiesC.to live at home and drive to classesD.to take a particular course in a different university58.American university students are usually under pressure of work becauseB.they are heavily involved in student affairsC.they have to observe university disciplineD.they want to run for positions of authority59.Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probably because .A.they hate the constant pressure strain of their studyB.they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC. such positions help them get better jobsD. such positions are usually well paid60.The student organizations seem, to be effective in .A.dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB.ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC.evaluating students’ performance by bringing them before a courtD.keeping up the students’ enthusiasm for social activitiesIII.V o c a b u l a r y a n d S t r u c t u r e61.I prefer to read idle.A.to sitB. to sittingC. than to sitD. rather than sit62.I to come over to see you, but someone called and I couldn’ t get away.A.intendedB. would intendC. had intendedD. has intended63.If my lawyer here last Saturday, he me from going.A. had been; would have preventedB. had been; would preventC. were; would preventD. were; would have prevented64.Greater efforts to increase grain production if food shortages areto be avoided.A.is being madeB. is makingC. have to makeD. must be made65.How I wish I you yesterday!A.seenB. did seeC. had seenD. were to see66.had I closed the door somebody started knocking on it.A.As soon as; thenB.

She looked at Mum strangely and said, "But aren't you working late?" Mum just pushed harder, each swipe(拖一下)of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book. After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said, "Thank you." Outside, Mum told me, "Dagmar is fine. No fever. " "You saw her, Mum?" "Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It's a fine hospital. But such floors!A mop is no good.

Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership(伙伴关系)which does good to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫)on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together. Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals(珊瑚)of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants which act as"dustman", taking some of the waste products from the corals and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. Ifthe plants are killed, or are even prevented from light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.85. Some birds like to sit on a sheep because .
