There certainly may be an element of proud boasting: “Admire my little son’s taste in jazz,” etc. But these carefully chosen photos often do little more than help parents escape from a harsh day ____53____. The isolation of parenthood delivers one to strange places, and you need your tribe. Sharing images on social media makes the experience ____54____, connecting one to a larger world.In his new book Why We Should Think Before We Talk About Our Kids Online, Leah Plunkett, a Harvard psychology professor, argues that “sharenting” happens when an adult transmits private details about a child via digital channels. It ____55____ a child’s entry into “digital life.” Studies estimate that by 2030 nearly two-thirds of identity-fraud cases affecting today’s children will have been caused by sharenting.For Plunkett, there are a couple of reasons to be concerned about sharenting. On a philosophical level, sharenting exposes children to the larger digital world without their permission, ____56____ them of a kind of privacy. This feeds into Plunkett’s second, much broader concern. The ____57____ problem with sharenting is the same with many adult-world privacy issues: the bargain we have made in exchange for these services is that we surrender our data and choose not to imagine the worst-case scenarios. Could things that parents post about children produce real-world ____58____, in terms of bullying, professional reputation, or future prospects? Today, long before children take their first step, their digital data already travels to “thousands, likely tens of thousands, of human and machine users.” How long will it be until someone ____59____ the power to predict who a child will become as an adult based on these data points?Plunkett’s concerns made parents reconsider their choices. In the end, Plunkett’s advice is to “make more mindful choices” about digital lives though parenthood is often so ____60____ vague that mindfulness seems impossible.Ⅲ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The Last Robot-Proof Job in America?You can get most food, such as warm cookies or vodka, to your doorstep in minutes. But try getting a red snapper (红鲷鱼). Until recently, if you could obtain it, it would likely have been pre-frozen and shipped in from overseas.A new tech startup is aiming to ____61____ this situation. Based inside the Fulton Fish Market, a seafood wholesale market, the startup, called , allows customers across the whole county, both restaurants and individuals, to buy from the market. The fish is shipped ____62____, rather than frozen, thanks to an Amazon advanced logistics system. Mike Spindler, the company’s C.E.O., said recently, “I can get a fish to Warren Buffett, that’s as fresh as if he’d walked down to the pier (码头) and bought it that morning.”There is one thing, ____63____, that the sophisticated logistics system cannot do: pick out a fish. If Warren Buffett orders a red snapper, the company needs to ____64____ that his fish is actually red snapper, and not some other. Accordingto the ocean-conservation organization, more than 20% of the seafood in restaurants and grocery stores in America is ____65____. For this task, the company has employed Robert DiGregorio, a forty-seven-year veteran of the business, who possesses a blend of judgement and ____66____ knowledge that, so far, computers have yet to replicate.“____67____ the food-safety stuff, our business could be any market from the last three thousand years of human history,” Spindler told me. He is experienced in the ____68____ business. When he arrived at the fish market in 2014, people were cautious. “They thought selling fish on the Internet was ____69____.” DiGregorio said, speaking for the fishmongers (鱼贩). “They didn’t see how it could possibly work.” Five years ago, DiGregorio didn’t know how to use a computer, but when the Web-site people arrived at the market, he sensed an opportunity. Together, they’ve created a human-machine fish-buying operation.By I a.m. each night, the company ____70____ from around the country and sends them to DiGregorio. He heads into the market, carrying his tablet computer. The company’s algorithms (算法) ____71____ data on their sources and can tell DiGregorio, for example, which stall to go to get the best tuna (金枪鱼). The computer is a “learning system,” so if DiGregorio makes a choice it didn’t ____72____, it asks, “Was the fish not available? Was it damaged?” All that information is fed back in for next time.Then, what can a fishmonger see that a computer can’t? DeGregorio showed me his part of the ____73____ process.“I’m assessing a few things,” he said. First,____74____. Fish should have “nice” slime (粘液). Then, smell. He sniffed the air above the box. “When fish goes bad, it smells like ammonia.” Besides, to get the best stuff, “Fishmongers have to have a relationship with you. To trust you.” He added.Is he never ____75____ being replaced by the learning system of computers? DiGregorio shrugged. “By the time they invent a computer that can do what I can do,” he said, “I’ll be dead.”61. A. maintain B. remedy C. substitute D. recognize62. A. free B. overseas C. separate D. fresh63. A. therefore B. otherwise C. however D. thus64. A. ensure B. propose C. concede D. remind65.

A. concerned about B. eager for C. delighted with D. capable ofSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of the population is what scientists call “amusic.” People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes (音调). Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are very far apart on the musical scale.As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hittingeach other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their inability to enjoy music set them apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can appreciate music. The difference is complex, and it doesn’t involve defective hearing. Amusics can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can’t see certain colors.Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed. For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When people invite me to a certain, I just say, “No thanks, I’m amusic,””says Margaret. “I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”76.Which of the following is true of amusics?A.Listening to music is far from enjoyable for them.B.They love places where they are likely to hear music.C.They can easily tell who different songs apart.D.Their situation is well understood by musicians.77.According to paragraph 3, a person with “defective hearing” is probably one who________.A.dislikes listening to speechesB. can hear anything nonmusicalC. Has a hearing problemD. lacks a complex hearing system78.In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that________.A.her problem with music had been diagnosed earlierB.she were seventeen years old rather than seventyC.her problem could be easily explainedD.she were able to meet other amusics79.What is the passage mainly concerned with?A.Amusics’ strange behaviorsB. some people’s inability to enjoy music.C. Musical talent and brain structureD. Identification and treatment of amusics.(B)How to place an Order of Custom Jeans▶Select the Fabric & Styles→Fabrics---Select the Fabric from our large collection of Denim Fabric Samples→Special Wash---Select your favorite special wash treatment to make your jeans look stylish→Thread Color---Select the thread color you want.

Oct. 26C. Nov. 16D. Nov. 20(C)Escaping predators (食肉动物), digestion and other animal activities---including those of humans--require oxygen. But that essential ingredient is no longer so easy for marine life to obtain, several new studies reveal.In the past decade ocean oxygen levels have taken a dive--an alarming trend that is linked to climate change, says Andreas Oschlies, an oceanographer at the Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Germany, whose team tracks ocean oxygen levels worldwide. “We were surprised by the intensity of the changes we saw, how rapidly oxygen is going down in the ocean and how large the effects on marine ecosystems are.” he says. It is no surprise to scientists that warming oceans are losing oxygen, but the scale of the drop calls for urgent attention. Oxygen levels in some tropical regions have dropped by an astonishing 40 percent in the last 50 years, some recent studies reveal. Levels have dropped less significantly elsewhere, with an average loss of 2 percent globally.A warming ocean losses oxygen for two reasons. First, the warmer a liquid becomes, the less gas it can hold. That is why carbonated drinks go flat faster when left in the sun. Second, as polar sea ice melts, it forms a layer of water above colder, more salty sea waters. This process creates a sort of lid that can keep currents from mixing surface water down to deeper depths. And because all oxygen enters the surface, less mixing means less of it at depth.Ocean animals, large and small, however, respond to even slight changes in oxygen by seeking refuge in higher oxygen zones or by adjusting behavior, Oschlies and others in his field have found. These adjustments can expose animalsto new predators or force them into food-scarce regions. Climate change already poses serious problems for marine life, such as ocean acidification, but deoxygenation is the most pressing issue facing sea animals today，Oschlies says. "they all have to breathe.”Aside from food web Problems, animals face various other physiological challenges as their bodies adjust to lower oxygen levels. Chinese shrimp(虾) move their tails less vigorously to preserve energy in lower oxygen environments. Some creatures, such as jellyfishes, are more tolerant of low oxygen than others are. But all animals will feel the impact of deoxygenation because they all have evolved their oxygen capacity for a reason, says Oschlies."Any drop in oxygen is going to damage survivability and performance, "he says.83. According to the first two paragraphs, what worries scientists most?A. The worsening deoxygenation in the warming oceanB. The survival of predator and various marine animalsC. The alarmingly changeable oxygen levels in the oceanD. The lack of attention to the warming of tropical oceans.84. Which of the following is a reason for the oxygen loss in the ocean?A. Polar ice melting consumes much oxygen in the ocean.B. Global warming reduces the amount of oxygen in the air.C. The surface polar ice water prevents oxygen going downD. Salty water holds less gas in the increasingly warmer ocean85. What can be inferred from the passageA. Ocean deoxygenation changes some animals' natural territories.B. Ocean acidification is more serious a problem than deoxygenation.C. Not all ocean animals are bothered by the decreasing oxygen levels.D. Some animals reduce their movements in order to absorb more oxygen86. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. The Oxygen Levels of Marine LifeB. Ocean Warming Affects Food WebC. The Survivability of Ocean AnimalsD. The Ocean Is Running Out of BreathSection CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once.The war on smoking, now five decades old and counting, is one of the nation's greatest public health success stories – but not for everyoneAs a whole, the country has made amazing progress. In 1964,four in ten teens in the Us smoked; today fewer than two in ten do.___________87_______________.Their failure is the greatest disappointment in an effort to save lives that was started on Jan. 11, 1964, by the first Surgeon General s Report on Smoking and Health. Its finding that smoking is a cause of lung cancer and other diseaseswas major news then. The hazards of smoking were just starting to emerge.The report led to cigarette warning labels, a ban on TV ads and eventually an anti-smoking movement that shifted the nation’s attitude on smoking. Then, smokers were cool.Today, many are outcasts, rejected by restaurants, bars, public buildings and even their own workplaces, Millions of lives have been saved.The formula for success is no longer guesswork: Adopt tough warning labels, air public service ads, fund smoking cessation programs and impose smoke-free laws___88____. If you can stop them from smoking, you’ve won the war. Few people start smoking after turning eighteen. _____89_______.The 10 states with the lowest adult smoking rates slap an average tax of$2. 42 on every pack -three times the average tax in the states with the highest smoking rates.New York has the highest cigarette tax in the country, at $4.35 per pack, and just 12 percent of teens smoke, far below the national average of 18 percent. Compare that with Kentucky, where taxes are low(60 cents), smoking restrictions are weak and the teen smoking rate is double New York's, Other low-tax states have similarly dismal records Enemies of high tobacco taxes cling to the tired argument that they fall disproportionately on the poor._____90__________. The effect of the taxes is amplified further when the revenue is used to fund initiatives that help smokers quit or persuade teens not to start.Anti-smoking forces have plenty to celebrate this week, having helped avoid 8 million premature deaths in the past 50 years. But as long as 3, 000 adolescents and teens take their first puff each day, the war is not wonIV.

The usual response to the annual flu is not enough to fight against the risks we currently face,____91___(say) nothing of preparing us for an even deadlier widespread flu that most experts agree ____92__(come) in the future. Yet we have an annual vaccine, and everyone _______93____(qualify) should get it without question. The reality, however, is that less than half Americans get the flu vaccines. And the flu vaccines we have are only 60% effective in the best years and 10% effective in the worst years. We urgently need a much ____94___(effective) flu vaccine.In the U. S alone, seasonal flu can cause up to 36 million infections, three-quarters of a million hospitalizations and 56,000 deaths. We are not investing the resources needed to protect ourselves, our loved ____95____ and our communitiesWhy not? We haven't been hit by _____96____ truly destructive widespread disease in a long time. So as individuals, we let down our guard as our leaders quickly defund and destaff the services we need to protect us.The risk of continued foot dragging is huge. In a severe widespread disease, the U.S. health care system could be defeated in just weeks. Millions of people would be infected by the virus, and would die in the weeks and months following the initial outbreak.The cost of preventing epidemics is roughly a tenth of ____97___ it costs to cope with them when they hit. In 2012, a call was issued for an annual billion-dollar U.S. commitment ___98____ the development of a universal flu vaccine. Six years later, the search for a universal vaccine remains seriously underfunded.The simple reason lies in our collective satisfaction. 99. headlines about the flu are gone, hospitals are emptied of flu patients, and school and workplace absence rates decline, we go back to business as usual.Leading scientists and public health officials have the capability to keep us much safer from flu. They need your quick and decisive support to succeed. Your action today 100 be a matter of life and death for you and those you love.V TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.101.他的父母为他考入理想大学而感到自豪。

Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the _ 50 _ it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can _51 _ people’s health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films __ 52__ doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to 53 exercise. It decreases blood pressure, the heart beat and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter 54 the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors 55 pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated the pain for the 56 time was the groups which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish( 减少) both stress and pain.As a 57 of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by 58__ them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects 59 to those caused by laughter.50．A. harm B. strength C. effect D. good51．A. help B. improve C. increase D. damage52．A. if B. but C. while D. since53．A. mental B. physical C. practical D. medical54.

Each passage is followed by several questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A. B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the passage you have just read.(A)To Chinese immigrants, in the mid-1800s, California was “The Land of the Golden Mountain.” In their homeland they had heard the words, “There’s gold in California.” They sailed 7,000miles to join the gold rush and strike it rich. Between 1849 and 1882, more than 30,000 Chinese came to California. Most were men. They had been farmers in China. They came here to be miners and laborers. They ended up doing many other jobs, too.Like many other immigrants, they did not plan to stay in America. They came because of their ties to their homeland and their families. They planned to return to China with their fortunes and help their families.Only a few Chinese gold miners struck it rich. Most picked over the areas that had been mined already. But still, white miners resented the Chinese. Slowly, they drove the “yellow peril” from the mining camps.By the end of the 1850s, many Chinese returned home. Those who stayed found other jobs.Few women had come west in the gold rush. The Chinese saw a good business opportunity. They began doing the jobs women would have done. Many became house servants. Many more opened laundries.The Chinese opened restaurants. Chop suey and show mein are popular Chinese-American dishes. The Chinese probably created these dishes to serve to the white miners. Other Chinese became fishermen, farmers, and even cigar makers.60. Why did Chinese go to America in the mid-1800s?A. Because they could find good jobs there.B. Because they had found gold there.C. Because they could open laundries and restaurants there.D. Because they heard there was gold there.61. The underlined word “resented”(L.2,Para.3 ) mean “________”.A. likedB. helpedC. hatedD. served62. Which should be the title of the passage?A. Early Chinese immigrants in AmericaB. Dream to strike it richC. The difference between men and womenD. Gold miners in America(B)My father was Chief engineer of a merchant ship, which was sunk in World War II. The bookNight of the U-boats told the story.MemoriesIn September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him sail.Then I remember my mother lying face down, sobbing. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo(鱼雷).I can remember the arrival of the telegram(电报),which in those days always brought bad news. My grand- mother opened it. It read, “Safe, Love Ted.”My most vivid memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage.He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war. For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.Ten years later I read Night of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.TorpedoOne torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be abandoned.By the time he got on deck (甲板) he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck firm. When he tried to cut it free it swung against the ship, injuring his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump—still with the photograph in his pocket.Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.In my room is the book and the photograph. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion, a sinking ship, a jump into a vast ocean and a wait for rescue? Lest（以免）we forget, I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war.63. We can infer(推断) that the mother and children went to Swansea ________.A. to meet a friendB. to see the father offC. to take a family photoD. to enjoy the sailing of the ship64. What did the author learn about the father from the telegram?A. he was still alive.B. His knee was broken.C. His ship had been sunk.D. He had arrived in Glasgow.65. What can we know about the author’s father after his ship was attacked?A. He lost his armB. He repaired the engines.C. He managed to take a lifeboat.D. He was the last to leave the ship.66. What is the passage mainly about?A. A group of forgotten heroesB. A book describing a terrifying battle.C. A ship engineer’s wartime experience.D. A merchant’s memories of a sea rescue.(C)Over a period of time, many habitats (栖息地)change with respect to the types of plants and animals that live there. This change is known as succession.Succession occurs because plants and animals cause a change in the environment in which they live. The first weeds and grasses that appear on a bare field, for example, change the environment by shielding the soil from direct sunlight. As these plants spread, the ground becomes cooler and more moist than it was originally. Thus, the environment at the ground surface has been changed. The new surface conditions favor the sprouting（产生）of shrubs. As shrubs grow, they kill the grasses by preventing light from reaching them and also enhance (增加)the soil. Pine seedlings (苗)soon take hold and as they grow, they in turn shade out the shrubs. They are not able to shade out oak and hickory (山核桃)seedlings, however, that have found the forest floor suitable. These seedlings grew into large trees that eventually shade out the pines.67.The best title of this passage is _____.A. The Importance of Weeds and GrassesB. The Success of Oak and HickoryC. How Environmental Habitats ChangeD. Animal and Plant Habitats68.It can be inferred (推理) from the passage that ______.A. oak and hickory trees grow taller than pinesB. weeds and grasses prefer cold climateC. pines and grasses can exist togetherD. birds encourage the growth of shrubs69. Which of the following is a stage of succession as described in the passage?A. A forest cut down to build an airport.B. A flood washing away a crop of wheatC. Wild flowers growing in an unused parking lotD. Animals being tamed (驯服)by childrenTranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.70. 什么样的发型适合她的脸型？（suit）71. 在炎热的夏日里,保护食物最有效的方法之一是把食物放在冰箱里。

There are a lot of reasons for this. Firstly, young people from villages usually want to live somewhere livelier, and they often move to the towns and do not return. Secondly, people move to the cities to find work, as there are often very few jobs in the countryside. Sometimes villages remain(保留/保存)because people from the cities have bought a “second home”in the villages, where they come and stay at weekends. The price of houses have bought a “second home” in the villages, where they come and stay at weekends. The price of houses goes up and people like to buy a house in the countryside. Another problem is that it is becoming more and more difficult for farmers to make money from their farms. So they sell their land and find another job.All these things mean that many villages are fighting to survive. We can only hopethat they will remain. The countryside would be a sadder and uglier place without them.40.

The countryside is changing ________ in some countries.A. larger and largerB. better and betterC. worse and worseD. smaller and smaller43. Which one of the following sentences is NOT TRUE?A. Some villages are becoming empty.B. The farmers can find jobs more easily in town.C. It’s easy for farmers to make money from their farms.D. The writer hopes that the villages will remain in the countryside.CDo you want to have a friend whom you could tell everything to, like your deepest feelings and thoughts? Or are you afraid that your friend would laugh at you, or just can’t understand what you are going through?Anne Frank chose the first kind. She lived in Amsterdam during World War II. Her family was Jewish (犹太人) so they had to hide, or they would be caught by the German soldiers. She and her family hid away for two years before they were discovered. During this time the only true friend was her diary, which she called Kitty.In a diary dated on Thursday 15 June, 1944, she wrote, “Dear Kitty, I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long that I’ve grown so mad about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a blue sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me puzzled. That’s changed since I was here for a year and a half.”44. In Anne’s opinion, the best friend is one who_______.A. knows everythingB. likes to talk with youC. can read your diaryD. can understand you45. Who do you think Kitty is ?A. Anne’s sister.B.

There certainly may be an element of proud boasting: “Admire my little son’s taste in jazz,” etc. But these carefully chosen photos often do little more than help parents escape from a harsh day ____53____. The isolation of parenthood delivers one to strange places, and you need your tribe. Sharing images on social media makes the experience ____54____, connecting one to a larger world.In his new book Why We Should Think Before We Talk About Our Kids Online, Leah Plunkett, a Harvard psychology professor, argues that “sharenting” happens when an adult transmits private details about a child via digital channels. It ____55____ a child’s entry into “digital life.” Studies estimate that by 2030 nearly two-thirds of identity-fraud cases affecting today’s children will have been caused by sharenting.For Plunkett, there are a couple of reasons to be concerned about sharenting. On a philosophical level, sharenting exposes children to the larger digital world without their permission, ____56____ them of a kind of privacy. This feeds into Plunkett’s second, much broader concern. The ____57____ problem with sharenting is the same with many adult-world privacy issues: the bargain we have made in exchange for these services is that we surrender our data and choose not to imagine the worst-case scenarios. Could things that parents post about children produce real-world ____58____, in terms of bullying, professional reputation, or future prospects? Today, long before children take their first step, their digital data already travels to “thousands, likely tens of thousands, of human and machine users.” How long will it be until someone ____59____ the power to predict who a child will become as an adult based on these data points?Plunkett’s concerns made parents reconsider their choices. In the end, Plunkett’s advice is to “make more mindful choices” about digital lives though parenthood is often so ____60____ vague that mindfulness seems impossible.Ⅲ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The Last Robot-Proof Job in America?You can get most food, such as warm cookies or vodka, to your doorstep in minutes. But try getting a red snapper (红鲷鱼). Until recently, if you could obtain it, it would likely have been pre-frozen and shipped in from overseas.A new tech startup is aiming to ____61____ this situation. Based inside the Fulton Fish Market, a seafood wholesale market, the startup, called , allows customers across the whole county, both restaurants and individuals, to buy from the market. The fish is shipped ____62____, rather than frozen, thanks to an Amazon advanced logistics system. Mike Spindler, the company’s C.E.O., said recently, “I can get a fish to Warren Buffett, that’s as fresh as if he’d walked down to the pier (码头) and bought it that morning.”There is one thing, ____63____, that the sophisticated logistics system cannot do: pick out a fish. If Warren Buffett orders a red snapper, the company needs to ____64____ that his fish is actually red snapper, and not some other. According。

Not 21 the money, parents often send their children to the 22 schools or even abroad to England, the USA or Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course 23 where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes which will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the 24 an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend a (an) 25 amount of money on education. Even 26 couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.27 , what most parents 28 to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap.Parents can see that their children‟s skills vary, skilled in some area s while poor in others.

It is celebrated(庆祝)in the United States, England, India and some other countries. In a short time, it becomes widely celebrated. Mother’s day falls on the second Sunday in May. On that day, many people send gifts(礼物)of love to their mothers.Those whose mothers are still living often wear a pink or red rose or carn ation(康乃馨)，while those whose mothers are dead wear a white one.The idea of a day for mothers was first given by Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia. As a result of her hard work, the celebration of the first American Mother’s Day was held in Philadelphia on May 10, 1908. Soon the holiday became popular all over the country and around the world.In China, people do the same on the day for mothers. And, in some cities, people sometimes ask a song to be broadcast(广播) for his or her mother only. This might cost a little money for some of them, but, as it is said, “Love is invaluable.”On May 8, 1999, just the day before the Mother’s Day that year, a Chinese mother was killed in criminal bombing(罪恶轰炸). Her name is Shao Yanhuan, a heroic mother. All the Chinese will remember her forever.41.

All of the aboveBWhat’s the difference between the British Isles, Britain, the United Kingdom and England?The British Isles is made up of two large islands: One is called Ireland and the other Britain. Britain, or Great Britain, is the larger of these two islands and it is divided into three parts: Scotlan d, Wales and England.The United Kingdom (UK) is short for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It is made up of Scotland, Wales, and England (i.e. the whole of Britain), and also about one-sixth of Ireland, the Northern part. The rest of Ireland is self-governing(自治的).England is the largest, most populous (人口众多的), and generally speaking, the richest section. English people often use the words “England” and “English” when they mean “Britain”and “British”. This sometimes makes the Scots and the Welsh angry. The Scots are very proud of their separate nationality. The Welsh too do not consider themselves as England, and have a culture and even a language of their own. Ireland became part of the United Kingdom in 1801, but is soon grew discontented (不满的), and for forty years the “Irish Questio n”was the greatest headache of British Parliament(国会). At last, Ireland d ivided itself into two: Northern Ireland remained loyal(忠诚于) to the Crown(英国王室), and in 1922 the rest of the country broke away to form Irish Free State, now the Republic of Ireland.46.

It is said a fish head is good for brain. If you eat one, you‟ll become cleverer indeed. Pay only three pounds for one fish head.” The boy paid him three pounds and the fisherman cut off a fish head and handed it to him.A raw fish head is not good—not even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gulps.“Do you feel anything?” asked the fisherman.“Not in my head,” said the boy.The boy lay on the ground and thought. “One whole fish costs only two pounds. I had p aid him three pounds for the fish head. Why couldn‟t I have the whole fish for soup, a head for brain and one pound left over?” He jumped up and shouted at the fisherman. “You thief! You are fooling me!” The fisherman laughed, saying, “The fish head works now, you see.”56. The boy ate up the raw fish head only in two gulps, because he __________.A. enjoy itB. wanted to taste itC. took it as a good medicineD. was a foolish boy57.

A good mealB. The raw fish headC. NothingD. What had happenedBEveryone has got two personalities—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behaviour, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don't like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive（不坦率的）person. You worry a lot and you're always easily upset. You're very stubborn（顽固的）, but you aren't very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up（卷曲）, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you're often defensive. You're shy and you don't normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You're easily hurt.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don't often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.61. According to the writer，you naturally show your secret and real personality _______.A. only in a normal nightB. only when you are sleepingC. only when you refuse to show yourself to the worldD. only when you change sleeping position62. Which is NOT mentioned in the second paragraph about a person's personality？A. He or she is always open with others.B. He or she always likes new ideas earlier than others.C. He or she is always easily upset.D. He or she tends to believe in others.63. Point out which sentence is used to show the personality of a person who is used to sleepingon his or her stomach？A. He or she is careful not to offend others.B. He or she doesn't want to stick to his or her opinion.C. He or she may not be successful in any business.D. He or she likes to bring others happiness.64. Maybe you don't want to make friends with a person who sleeps curled up. Why？A. He or she would rather be alone than communicate with you.B. He or she is rarely ready to help you.C. He or she prefers staying at home to going out.D. He or she wouldn't like to get help from you.65. It appears that the writer tends to think highly of the person who sleeps on one side because__________.A. he or she always shows sympathy for peopleB. he or she is confident，but not stubbornC. he or she has more strengths than weaknessesD. he or she often considers annoying peopleCThe United States is one of the few countries in the world that has an official day on which fathers are honored by their children. On the third Sunday in June, fathers all across the United States are given presents, treated to dinner or otherwise made to feel special.The origin of Father's Day is not clear, but no matter when the first true Father's Day appeared, the strongest supporter of the holiday was Mrs. Bruce John Dodd of Spokane, Washington. She thought of the idea for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day sermon(布道) in 1909.Sonora wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. Smart, who was a Civil War soldier, was left alone when his wife died while giving birth to their sixth child. Mr. Smart had to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a farm in eastern Washington state.After Sonora became an adult she realized the selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent. It was her father that made all the sacrifices(牺牲)and was a courageous, selfless, and loving man. In 1909, Mrs. Dodd gave her own minister and others in Spokane some advice about having a church service devoted to fathers, thus Father‟s Day came into being. People celebrated the third Sunday in June as Father's Day. Children made special sweets, or visited their fathers if they lived apart. In early times, wearing flowers was a traditional way of celebrating Father‟s Day. People wore red roses to honor a father still living, and wore white flowers to honor a dead dad.When children can't visit their fathers or take them out to dinner, they send a greeting card. Traditionally, fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental(多愁善感的). Most greeting cards have strange shapes, so fathers laugh when they open them66. Who first raised the idea of Fa ther‟s Day?A. SonoraB. SmartC. Smart‟s wifeD. Sonora‟s minister.67. How many brothers and sisters did Sonora have altogether?A. threeB. fourC. fiveD. six68. Smart was a _______ father while Sonora was a _______ daughter.A. selfless, considerateB. selfless, beautifulC. clever, diligentD. perfect, sentimental69. What was the traditional way of celebrating Father‟s Day in early times?A. Visiting fathersB. Taking fathers out to dinnerC. Sending fathers greeting cardsD. Wearing flowers70. Most people send their fathers greeting cards of strange shapes to _______ them.A. relaxB. pleaseC. frightenD. surprisePart ⅣWriting（45 marks）Section A（10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the numbered blanks by using theinformation from the passage.Don‟t connect friendship wi th money.each otherSection B（10marks）Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit.Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use less disposable things.Many disposable things are made of plastic, not easy to rot away. People throw them away after using them only once. It is a waste of natural resources and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again. At home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to use daily necessities（日用品）once more. Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school canteen, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.81. Please list at least 4 disposable things mentioned in the passage.

This is because many countries have wonderful teams for the World Cup . The World Cup is held every four years. Remember 2002 FIFA World Cup, children from different countries and more than 60 children from Japanese schools came together and spent three weekends drawing a big picture called “Dream World Cup” in Japan. The chil dren drew animals, flowers andpeople playing soccer under a blue bright sky. They wished each football team good luck by drawing the flags of all the countries that will take part in the World Cup in Japan and South Korea. The picture was put up in a park near a playground in Yokohama. Some football teams will have games there.Are you a football fan? The World Cup makes more and more people interested in football. Teenagers like playing and watching football. Many of them love some football stars so much that they get the pictures of their favorite players on the walls of their rooms.

The favorite place to buy a hamburger is a fast food restaurant. At fast food restaurants, people order their food, wait a few minutes to get it over the counter, and carry it to their tables themselves. People also take their food out of the restaurant and eat it in their cars or in their homes. At some fast food restaurants, people can order their food, pay for it and pick it up without leaving their cars.There are many kinds of fast food restaurants in the United States. Most of the restaurants sell hamburgers or other popular foods among Americans. In addition, there are many fast food restaurants that serve Chinese food, Italian food, chicken, seafood and ice-cream. The idea of a fast food restaurant is so popular that nearly every kind of food can be found in one.]Fast food restaurants are popular because they show the American way of life. First, they are not formal restaurants. People wear any type of dress when they go to a fast food place. Second, they are fast. People who are busy do not want to spend time preparing their food or waiting while someone else prepares it. In fast food restaurants the food is usually ready before the customer even orders it. Finally, most food in a fast food restaurant is not expensive. Therefore, people can often eat at a fast food restaurant without spending too much money, while they may not be able to go to more expensive restaurants very often.51.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Chinese food is also served in some fast food restaurants.B. People can have almost every kind of food in fast food restaurants.C. Fast food is usually expensive.D.

The American Way of LifeD.Different Kinds of Restaurants(C)As prices and building costs keep r ising, the “do-it-yourself’(DIY) trend(趋势) in the U.S. continues to grow.“We needed furniture(家具) for our living room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.” John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I’ve finished a car repair course. I should be able to fix the car by myself.”John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer’, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’thave time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.56.We can learn from the text that many newly married people_______.A. find it hard to pay for what they needB. have to learn to make their own furnitureC. take DIY courses run by the governmentD. seldom go to a department store to buy things57.John and his wife went to evening classes to learn how to_______.A. run a DIY shopB.make or repair thingsC. save time and moneyD. improve the quality of life58.When the writer says that Jim has a full-time job at home, he means Jim______.A. makes shoes in his homeB. does extra work at nightC. does his own car and home repairsD. keeps house and looks after his children59.Jim Hatfield decided to become a do- it- yourselfer when _______.A. his car repairs cost too muchB. the car repair class was not helpfulC. he could not possibly do two jobsD. he had to raise the children all by himself60.What would be the best title for the text?A.

If you move your lips, hold your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading. Then when your lips move, you will know it and stop them. If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your right hand. Then you won’t have a free finger to use in pointing while reading. If you move your head, place your chin in one hand, and hold your head still.If you read no more than one or two words at a time, you need to work in learning to take in more words at each glance as your eyes travel across the lines of words. Even if you read fairly fast now, you can learn to read even faster. As you probably have been told, the secret of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words at each glance. Read in several groups and force your eyes along the lines of words as fast as you can make them go. Anyone who practices doing these two things will be able to read faster.36.

Cloze (10%)How to take better care of your hair?Properly caring for your hair can result in healthier looking and shinier hair. Simple changes, like soft brushes, never brushing your hair while it is wet and avoiding hot appliances, can have 37 results.Not everyone is born 38 beautiful hair, but by learning a few hair care facts, you can make your hair look its best. 39 , attractive hair should shine. 40 your hair is long or short, light or dark, it should look smooth, silky and shiny. Hair that is dull, dry, brittle (脆弱的) is unhealthy and unattractive. Everyday events such as shampooing, brushing and blow drying can do great damage 41 your hair, causing the dry, brittle, dull appearance.When you shampoo your hair, you should use a shampoo for your 42 type of hair. If you have permed or color 43 hair, you should use a shampoo for chemically treated hair. Many people believe that baby shampoo is very 44 and safe to use on their hair. This is a big misconception. Baby shampoo is actually quite harsh: its main purpose is to remove cradle cap from an infant’s scalp. Leave the baby shampoo for your baby. If you are 45 sure what your hair type is or what type of shampoo to use, ask your hairdresser. Your hairdresser can recommend a specific shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair healthy and __46_____.( ) 37. A. dramatic B. no C. little D. rare( ) 38. A. for B. with C. in D. of( )39. A.

Reading (24%)(A)Everybody knows that words can carry messages. People communicate with words. Books, magazines, TV and radio and films all help us to communicate with others. They all help us to know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.Do you think you can communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you put up your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask a question. You shake your head, and people know you re saying “No”. You nod and people know you are saying “Yes”.Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. A sigh on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time?People can communicate in many ways without words. For example, an artist can use his drawing to tell about beautiful mountains, about the sea and many other things.47. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.It is a most popular way for man to communicate with words.B.Words are the only way for man to communicate.ing radio is one of the ways to communicate. can help people know the world better.48. Which of the following signs is usually used to show you the direction?A. A picture.B. A number.C. A kind of colorD. An arrow49. How does an artist often carry messages to people?A.

We can see that __________.A. Mr. Hoffman found Mr. Smith’s briefcaseB. Mr. Smith works in the Chemistry DepartmentC. the lost briefcase and the found one are not the same.D. the brown briefcase belongs to John Smith(C)Communication is the sending of information or news from one person to another. If human beings could not communicate with one another, each person would have to learn everything for himself. Although animals as well as men can communicate, so far as we know, they can express only the simple emotions like pain, joy, fear, hunger, anger and love. Some animals have a more advanced form of language using sounds, and others use a wide range of sounds and face movements, but we still have much to learn about these animal languages. Speech is the most important means of communication between people. But it is not the only one. Nor is it the oldest. We use facial expressions, gestures and hand movements to express our feelings and send signals to other people. Animals use this “body language” a great deal. The sign language used by deaf people is an example of communication without speech, while blind people communicate largely through touch and hearing.53. According to the passage, what should happen to us without communication?A. We should learn everything for ourselves.B. We would become unable to speak.C. We couldn’t live happily.D. We might have to do everything by ourselves.54. What does the passage say about animals’ communication?A. They have their advanced language in the form of sound.B. They can express simple feelings such as hunger and pain.C. Some of them can communicate with people very well.D. All of them can use sound to express themselves.55. We can infer from the passage that the oldest from of communication between people is __________.A. SpeechB. Touch and hearingC. SoundsD. Body language(D)“Wash every day and you’ll die young, my son!”People often said those words, long ago, of course. Napoleon’s wife had new clothes every month, instead of a bath. (“It’s quicker,”she always said.) Rich people did not often have a bath. They washed their hands and faces, but not their bodies.Many poor people did not wash at all. A young man once said to a doctor, “Soap and water have never touched my body.”And the doctor answered,“That’ true, I know…”Why didn’t people wash in those days long ago?Well, they did not have water in their houses.They carried water from rivers or from wells. People in towns bought it from a water-carrier. Sometimes it was expensive, and soap was always expensive. They drank water, of course, and so they were clean inside. They did not think about the outside! And this is true: they just did not like a bath.Modern life is different. We use a lot of soap and water. And we are all quite clean. However, a few people use too much soap, and they often get ill. Who are these people?Many young women work as hairdressers. They wash and then “dress” other women’s hair. That is their job and they like it. Young hairdressers sometimes wash thirty heads on a busy day! Their hands are soapy for seven or eight hours, and that is not a good thing.
