ADirections:There are three passages in this part.For each of them are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage oneIn this age of equality,sameness between the sexes is emphasized as if differences have to mean problem.Well,differences can mean problems,but only when they are not properly understood.Imagine Adam alone in the Garden of Eden and you will have an idea about the way many men feel today.If the major issue for women is overloaded in their life---balancing career,relationship,children,home----the crisis for men is loneliness and the loss of women.Twenty-five years ago,most men came home from work to a warm meal,a clean house,the devotion of a gentle wife.Now the majority of women work outside,they are no longer the full-time housewives as before,so men are deserted and easily hurt.Women get emotional support through a network of friends and family.Most men don’t have such relationships;they are intimate only with their wives or lovers.As a result,any lessening of their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.Bob’s wife Sandy has a full-time job,and he really prefers her bringing home extra income.Yet he also feels uneasy and troubled.”When I get home at the end of the day,wanting to have a talk with Sandy,”he said,”She puts me off.First she makes dinner,then the kids need something,or a friend calls her.She talks with her sister,her girlfriends,her workmates,but not with me.I sometimes do feel abandoned and annoyed.”Since most men have difficulty admitting loneliness and hurt,they tend to become4angry instead.Bob’s constant complaints and criticism made Sandy confused and irritated.Eventually,they came up with a simple solution that met both Bob’s need for time and Sandy’s sense of responsibility to others.The first half-hour after Bob arrived home from work was“theirs”,they would sit together and just talk to each other everything they want to say.51.Many men feel hurt and abandoned because.A.women think it’s unfair to stay at home doing houseworkB.their wives are no longer gentle and caring to the familyC.The equality of men and women is strongly emphasizedD.Most women have their own jobs and don’t have enough time and energy caring about men52.Why do men care a lot about their couples’attitude towards them?A.Because their differences can mean problemsB.Because they don’t have a network of friends and familyC.Because they only want to have an intimate relation with their wivesD.Because men lack confidence nowadays53Which of the following statements about Bob and Sandy is true?A.Bob doesn’t wish Sandy to do a full-time job.B.Sandy is too busy to have time talking with Bob.C.Sandy puts Bob off since there’s no common topic between them anymore.D.Sandy feels equal to Bob now and no longer loves him as before.54.What does the passage want to tell us?A.Differences between men and women would certainly bring problems.B.All human beings should be considered equal.C.Only sameness could bring happiness to a marriage life.D.Mutual understanding between men and women helps to solve problem.Passage TwoMany people have the experience that getting up in the morning is so difficult and painful.This might be called laziness.But Dr.Kleitman has a new explanation to this,he has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work,you may say that you’re feeling“hot”.That’s true.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak.No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar monologue as:”Get up,Tom!You’ll he late for school again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that Tom is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening.Much family quarreling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit it better.Habit can help a lot.Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway,counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to.However,if your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour.This won’t change your cycle,but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to slow start which saves your energy.Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor.Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before.Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.55.According the passage,what might bring family questions to the end?5A.Stopping familiar monologues every dayB.A sudden change of a family member’s energy cycleC.Being aware of energy cycles of other family membersD.Trying to control the energy cycles of other members56.If one wants to do better at his low point in the morning,he should.A.change his energy cycleB.go to bed earlier the day beforeC.try to overcome his lazinessD.get up earlier than usual57.What does the sentence”get off to slow start which saves your energy”mean?A.It will help you to control your temper early in the day.B.It will enable you to concentrate on your routine work.C.It will help to keep your energy for the whole day’s work.D.It will keep your energy cycle under control all day.58.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A.Dr.Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.B.Habit can help people adjust to their own energy cycle.C.Each person has his own energy cycle.D.Getting up with a slow start helps us to save energy for work.Passage ThreeA person with a flat,dull voice which neither rises nor falls sounds like a flat and dull person!But he or she may not be!While we can’t deny the fact that people can give the impression that they are bored,anxious,friendly or angry just by the sound of their voice.A French friend of mine once said to me,”Your accent in French is excellent but you will never sound like a Frenchman until you put all your heart into your voice.It is a pity because you are a lively person and yet you don’t sound lively to a Frenchman!”We learn the grammar and vocabulary and even the correct pronunciation of the foreign people,but we may forget the important emotional effect of the music of our speech,for British people,the intention of language is attractive.That is to say,the rise and fall in the sound of our voice when we speak really matters.It’s unfortunate that the intonation of some other countries can often communicate the wrong meaning.British people sometimes feel offended because they think the other person is unfriendly even if he has spoken a perfect English sentence!And this failure of communication can also happen between British people themselves.If you want to communicate successfully with another person,you may have to think about the music of your own voice.Especially when you meet someone from a different part of your country or from another country,you should be careful!Don’t judge them only by their intonation!59.What does the writer want to show through the example in the second paragraph?A.To learn a foreign language well,we must learn the sound and pronunciation well.B.Grammar,vocabulary and pronunciation are not the only important elements in learning foreign language.C.A person with a flat,dull voice will not give other good impression.D.In learning a foreign language,we must talk to the native speakers fluently.60.The word“music”in the third paragraph means.A.intonationB.rising toneC.sweet voiceD.falling tone61.British people sometimes feel offended while talking with others because.6A.they can’t understand what the other person saysB.the other person says something rudeC.the language they speak are quite differentD.they misunderstand the other person’s words62.What is the main idea of the passage?A.To communicate with others successfully,we must know music well.B.We can’t simply judge a person by his voice,nor can we neglect intonation.C.Many listeners will not pay attention to the sound of one’s voice.D.It’s not easy for people from different countries or parts to communicate.Section B

They say she was extremely drunk and had trouble standing or walking. Her blood alcohol level initially was measured at .346. The legal limit is . 08.Sergeant J. Litchie said Dennison also had been charged with a DUI in January when she crashed at the same spot and registered a blood' alcohol level of .380.

But that is not the case. In many ways the Greeks and the Romans could not have been more diferent.The Greeks were tmuly democratic , often without a single leader but instad govemed by a group of men chosen by the people. The Romans were semi-democratic. They had a governing Senate , but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders. But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic. Theirbuildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples，columns , and decorative forms. The Romans, on the other hand , were moreengineers than artists. They concentrated their efforts on urban planning , well-functioning water pipes, and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar. Both peoples ate very well indeed: lots of fish, fresh vegetables and fruits, healthy meals ，holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.In fact, it would probably be fair to say that they both loved lfe in their warm, sea-oriented climates, and they both lived a full life.40. What is the first paragraph about?——[单选题]A The Greek and the Roman were similar.B People misunderstood European civilization.C Greek civilization was quite different from Roman civilizationD European crilizatin inluenced American civilization greatly正确答案：C41、Which of the following is TRUE?——[单选题]A The Romans had more political awarenessB The Romans had less plitical feedom and demoracyC The Romans had more feedom to choose their leaderD The Romans had fewer people elected into the govemment正确答案：B42、 What were the Greeks famous for?——[单选题]A The overall planning of a city or a townB The atistic decoration of the buildingsC The pracical functions of the buildingsD The system of water spply and tansporation正确答案：B43、 How are the two cultures alike?——[单选题]A Both loved the seaB Both lived long livesC Both loved cookingD Both enjoyed talking over meals正确答案：D44、 Passage ThreeAs recently as three decades ago,many Americans believed that using credit wasan unwise and dangerous way to pay for what they bought.Some even though thatowing money to a store or a credit company was something to be ashamed of.Good citizens,they believed,always bought what they wanted with real money and theypaid the full price immediately.Today, however, all that has changed,Credit,as some observers have noted,has become a way of life in the United States.More and more Americans mow are depending on those small pieces of plastic,credit cards,to pay for large purchases such as televisions,record players or furniture.Many people today would considerit unususal not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant dinner,a hotel room or an airline trip.And there are some situations in which Americans must have credit cards.If they want the temporary use of a car,for example,they first must give the cae rental company the number of their credit card.That number is considered a guarantee that they will return the car and pay for using it.Credit cards offer two major services to Americans.First of all,they are easier and safer to carry than large amounts of money.Second,they permit people to borrow, to have the immediate pleasure of owning something,eeven if they do not have enough money to pay for it at the time.With credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month insted of when they buy them.And when the time dose come to pay,most credit cards offer people a choice.They can pay all of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between 5and 10percent of what they owe.44.What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadays according to the passage?——[单选题]A They consider it valuableB They regard it as a shameC They think it dangerousD They find it quiet convenient正确答案：D45、Why dose the car rental company ask for the credit card number?——[单选题]A To prevent the overuse of the carB To make sure that the car won't be damagedC To make sure the user return the car and pay for using itD To ensure that the car is safely and timely returned正确答案：C46、What advantage can credit card holders have?——[单选题]A They can choose not to pay for their purchasesB They can easily borrow money at a lower interestC They can own something before they actually pay for itD They can pay only a small amount of what they owe正确答案：C47、What is the best title for the passage?——[单选题]A Credit-a Way of Life in AmericaB Credit Services in AmericaC Convenience of Living in AmericaD History of Credit Cards in America正确答案：A48、 Passage FourAt the 1893 Columbian Exposition,a World Fair Held in Chicago,chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displaued.It caught the eye of M.S Hershey.who saw the potential for chocolate.He installed chocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster,and produced his first chocolate bars in 1894.Other Americans began mixing in other materials to make up new candy bars throughout the end of the 1890's and the early 1900's.But it was World War I that really brought attention to the candy bar.The U. S. Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide 20 to 40 pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases. The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed toAmerican soldiers in Europe. Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers. By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home, the American candy bar business was assured. " Why? Because the returming soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same. As a result, from that time on and through the 1920' s, candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States, and as many as 40 ,000 different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston, and New York.

Twain passed away in 1910, leaving behind a treasure of great literature. But now , 100 years after his death, he' ll have a brand new book on the shelves: a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb: it was his wish that publishers wait until 100 years afer his death to publish his memoirs (自传), which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than 5 ,000 pages, and likely won' t be all sunshine and roses. It seems that Twain habored some biternes against former gnfiends and ex fiends. He also writes negatively about plitins of his day, such as Teddy Roosevlt.It' s likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn' t want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sectiois of the memoirs have been periously published ，the autobiography has never been avilable in full, and should provide great insights into the man behind the Classic books. The first volume of the set will be available in November, and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley.“There are so many bogaphies of Twain, and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography, ”edior Robert Hirst told The Independent.“ But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote. By pubising Twain's book in full we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was."52. According to Paragraph 1, which of the following statements is TRUE of Mark Twain?——[单选题]A He left behind lots of moneyB His works were written for children.C His works are full of adventures.D He is famous for his great works.正确答案：D53、What can we learn about Mark Twain' s autobiography from the passage?——[单选题]A It has been published against Twain’s will.B It shows Twain’s respect for politicians.C It will be published in full.D It has been recently finished.正确答案：C54、What does the underlined word“trilogy" i n. Paragraph 4 mean?——[单选题]A A work in three volumes.B An imaginative work.C A collection of stories.D Memoirs of famous people.正确答案：A55、What is the purpose of publishing Twain’s autobiography?——[单选题]A To supplement other biographies.B To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C To introduce Mark Twain' s works.D To expose new discoveries about Mark Twain.正确答案：B56、V.

There's still one and a half hours until the plane takes.M: But it's already six. And we'll need an hour and a quarter on the way.Q: When will they get to the airport according to the man? .6. （分数：3.00）A.The man prefers The Matrix 2: Reloaded.B.The woman doesn't like the film.C.The woman wants to see The Matrix 2: Reloaded.D.The man doesn't agree with the woman. （正确答案）解析： [听力原文]W: The sequel of The Matrix 2: Reloaded is wonderful, isn't it?M: Yes, you may say so, but not so good as the original, I'm afraid.Q: What can be concluded from the conversation?Long Conversation 1(总题数：3，分数：0.00). Questions 9 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1. （分数：3.00）A.Two.B.Three. （正确答案）C.Four.D.Five.解析：[听力原文]M: Well, Shirley, now that we've seen the three apartments. Which one do you like best?W: I don't know, Brad. I know one thing. I didn't like the one on the 68th street.M: Neither did I. Let's cross that one off. That leaves the 7nd street one and the 80th street one.W: The one on the 80th street has a better view and a very cheerful kitchen.M: Yes, and I like the carpet in the hall. It was clean, but there was no good place to put a desk.W: That's true. You should always just put it in the corner of the living room. But then you wouldn't have any privacy and the bedroom was too small.M: Right! And I do need to be able to leave my work out on the desk without having it looked into by noisy visitors.W: Oh, Brad, we don't have that kind of visitors, but I do agree the desk shouldn't be in the living room. It is a constant reminder of unfinished work. What about the 72nd street apartment? It has a dining area. We could eat in the kitchen and put the desk in the dining area. It's more private there.M: Yes, that sounds OK. Only what I didn't like about that place was the west window. It gets quite hot in the late afternoon with the sun beating down on the window.W: Didn't you notice the air-conditioner?M: No. Was there one?W: Yes, and we can improve on the curtains too.M: That place did have the best parking facilities of the three?W: Yes, I think that apartment is best for our needs. There's good parking and there's a semi-private area for your desk that takes care of the daily activities. We'll just let the other chips fall where they may.M: OK. Let's take that one.How many apartments have they seen?Long Conversation 2(总题数：3，分数：0.00). Questions 12 to 14 are based on the conversation you have just heard.1. （分数：3.00）A.A journalist.B.A policeman. （正确答案）C.A traffic warden.D.A supermarket executive.解析：[听力原文]M: Now could you tell me your name, please?W: Yes, Officer. It's Daniels, Mrs. Jennifer Daniels.M: And could I have your address too, please?W: Yes, of course. It's 27th Springfield Road, Bristol.M: So, could you tell me, please, exactly what you saw of the incident?W: Yes, well, I was just coming out of the supermarket exit when all of a sudden I heard this cry, and when I turned around to see what it was, I saw this man sort of tugging at this woman's handbag, and she was hitting him with her free hand, and then he pushed her and she fell to the ground. He then ran off down the street and round the corner.M: I see. And could you describe the man for me?W: Well, um...let me see. He was medium height, about thirtyish. It all happened so quickly that it's hard to remember.M: Do please try. It could be very important in helping us to catch him.W: Oh yes, I do remember something else. He was wearing a yellow jacket—you know, a light anorak sort of thing and jeans, blue jeans.M: Did you notice the color of his hair by any chance?W: Oh, dark I should say.., yes, dark brown. And that's all I can remember, I'm afraid. It was very wavy.M: Thank you very much, Mrs. Daniels. You've been very helpful. We'll probably be in touch.Who is asking Mrs. Daniels most probably?Section B(总题数：0，分数：0.00)Passage One(总题数：3，分数：0.00).

I was in Toronto and had a layover between flights. I'd arrived at about 6 p.m. and my flight out wasn't until about 8:30. Well, my flight was delayed. It got really crowded at the departure gate. I was getting tired and there were so many people around. I hate crowds, so I went to sit away from the departure gate to escape the crowds. I was reading my newspaper, feeling drowsy. And then...the next thingI know, I wake up and there's no one around! The crowd is gone.I had fallen asleep and missed my flight. They must have made lots of announcements and I missed them all. Boy, did I feel stupid? I had to stay in Toronto overnight and catch a flight out the next morning.What did the man do in Toronto?Passage Two(总题数：3，分数：0.00). Questions 18 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.1. （分数：3.00）A.Dress the cut with a clean cotton bandage.B.Clean the cut with warm water.C.Hold the cut closed for a few minuts. （正确答案）D.Call a doctor.解析：[听力原文]As any parent will tell you, small cuts and miner grazes are unavoidable among small children. Such cuts and grazes will usually need little or no treatment. The bleeding will clean the wound naturally, and it should stop within a few minutes, as the blood clots and dries. More serious cuts may need to be gently cleaned with soft cotton and warm water. They should then be dressed with a clean cotton bandage. Follow this simple checklist of questions. Ask yourself each of these questions in order to make sure you treat cuts and grazes properly: Firstly, is the cut on the face? If it is, call a doctor as soon as possible, especially if the eye is injured. Secondly, is the cut near the eye? If it is, put a clean piece of cotton wool over it and press down firmly for about 5 minutes.Thirdly, ask yourself if the cut is still bleeding badly. If it is, dress it with a clean cotton bandage and call a doctor as soon as possible.Fourthly, is the cut a deep one, and is it wide open? If it is, clean the cut gently with clean cotton wool and a little warm water. Then hold it closed with an adhesive dressing.Fifth question, was the cut made by a nail or a long, sharp piece of wood? If it was, there may be some dirt in the cut. Let it bleed for a while to clean itself. Then clean it with cotton wool and warm water and dress it with a clean cotton bandage.Finally, don't forget that young children can become very easily upset or shocked by a cut—especially if it is a serious one. Try to keep them calm and quiet. Don't give them anything to drink, but keep their lips wet with a little water.What should you do if a child is cut near the eye?Part Ⅱ Vocabulary and Structure(总题数：30，分数：0.00)1. It has been reported that more than one kid ______ with the "Bird Flu"（分数：0.50）A.have been infectedB.has been infected （正确答案）C.have infectedD.has been infecting解析：分析选项，考查单复数以及主被动，由于主语是单数结构，且空后没有名词做为infect“感染”的承受者或主语kid是infect 的承受者，所以本题为被动。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the best answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneIn this age of equality, sameness between the sexes is emphasized as if differences have to mean problems. Well, differences can mean problems, but only when they are not properly understood.Imagine Adam alone in the Garden of Eden and you will have an idea about the way many men feel today. If the major issue for women is overload in their life---- balancing relationships of career, children and home---- the crisis for men is loneliness and the loss of women. Twenty-five years ago, most men came home from work in a warm meal, a clean house, the devotion of a gentle wife. Now the majority of women work outside, they are no longer the full-time housewives as before, so men are feeling deserted and easily hurt.Wo men get emotional support through a network of friends and family. Most men don‟t have such relationships: they are intimate only with their wives or lovers. As a result, any lessening of their partner‟s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.Bob‟s wife Sandy has a full-time job, and he really prefers her bringing home extra income. Yet he also feels uneasy and troubled. “W hen I get home at the end of the day, wanting to have a talk with Sandy”, he said, “s he puts me off.” First, she make s diner, then the kids need something, or a friend calls her. She talks with her sister, her girlfriends, her workmates, but not with me. I sometimes do feel abandoned and annoyed.Since most men have difficulty admitting loneliness and hurt, they tend to become angry instead. Bob‟s constant complaints and criticism made Sandy confused and irritated. Eventually, they came up with a simple solution that met both Bob‟s need for time and Sandy‟s sense of responsibility to others. The first half hour after Bob arrived home from work was “theirs”, they would sit together and just talk to each other about everything they want to say.51.Many men feel hurt and abandoned because________.A)women think it‟s unfair to stay at home doing homeworkB)their wives are no longer gentle and caring to the familyC)the equality of men and women is strongly emphasizedD)most women have their own jobs and don‟t have enough time and energy caring about men52.Why do men care a lot about their couples‟ attitude towards them?A)Because their differences can mean problems.B)Because they don‟t have a network of friends and family.C)Because they only want to have an intimate relation with their wives.D)Because men lack confidence nowadays.53.Which of the following statements about Bob and Sandy is true?A)Bob doesn‟t wish Sandy to do a full-time job.B)Sandy is too busy to have time talking with Bob.C)Sandy puts Bob off since there‟s no common topic between them anymore.D)Sandy feels equal to Bob now and no longer loves him as before.54.What does the passage want to tell us?A)Differences between men and women would certainly bring problems.B)All human beings should be considered equal.C)Only sameness could bring happiness to a marriage life.D)Mutual understanding between men and women helps to solve problems.Passage TwoMany people have the experience that getting up in the morning is so difficult and painful. This might be called laziness. But Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation to this, he has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you‟re feeling “hot”. That‟s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologue as: “Get up, Tom! You‟ll be late for school again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that Tom is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can‟t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help a lot. Maybe you‟re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway, counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. However, if your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won‟t change your cycle, but you‟ll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to slow Start which saves your energy‟. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.55.According the passage, what might bring family quarrels to the end?A)Stopping familiar monologues every day.B)A sudden change of a family member‟s energy cycle.C)Being aware of energy cycles of other family members.D)Trying to control the energy cycles of other members.56.If one wants to do better at his low point in the morning, he should ________.A)change his energy cycleB)go to bed earlier the day beforeC)try to overcome his lazinessD)get up earlier than usual57.What does the sentence “get off to slow start which saves your energy” mean?A)It will help you to control your temper early in the day.B)It will enable you to concentrate on your routine work.C)It will help to keep your energy for the whole day‟s work.D)It will keep your energy cycle under control all day.58.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A)Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.B)Habit can help people adjust to their own energy cycle.C)Each person has his own energy cycle.D)Getting up with a slow start helps us to save energy for work.Passage ThreeA person with a flat, dull voice which neither rises nor falls sounds like a flat and dull person! But he or she may not be! While we can‟t deny the fact that people can give the impression that they are bored, anxious, friendly or angry just by the sound of their voice.A French friend of mine once said to me, “Your accent in French is excellent but you will never sound like a Frenchman until you put all your heart into your voice. It is a pity because you are a lively person and yet you don‟t sound lively to a Frenchman!”We learn the grammar and vocabulary and even the correct pronunciation of the foreign language, but we may forget the important emotional effect of the music of our speech. For British people, the intonation of language is attractive. That‟s to say, the rise and fall in the sound of our voice when we speak really matters. It‟s unfortunate that the intonation of some other countries can often communicate the wrong meaning.British people sometimes feel offended because they think the other person is unfriendly even if he has spoken a perfect English sentence! And this failure of communication can also happen between British people themselves,If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think about the music of your own voice. Especially when you meet someone from a different part of your country or from another country, you should be careful! Don‟t judge them only by their intonation!59.What does the writer want to show through the example in the second paragraph?A)To learn a foreign language well, we must learn the sound and pronunciation well.B)Grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation are not the only important elements in learning a foreignlanguage.C)A person with a flat, dull voice will not give other good impression.D)In learning a foreign language, we must talk to the native speakers frequently.60.The word …music” in the third paragraph means______A)intonation B)rising toneC)sweet voice D)falling tone61.British people sometimes feel offended while talking with others because ______A)they can‟t understand what the other person saysB)the other person says something rudeC)the languages they speak are quite differentD)they misunderstand the other person‟s words62.What is the main idea of the passage?A)To communication with others successfully, we must know music well.B)We can‟t simply judge a person by his voice, nor ca n we neglect the intonation.C)Many listeners will not pay attention to the sound of one‟s voice.D)It‟s not easy for people from different countries or parts to communicate.Section B Sentence Understanding and MatchingDirections: Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Part Ⅳ Translation (2 points each, 20 points)Section A English-Chinese Translation71.In this age of equality, sameness between the sexes is emphasized as if differences have to mean problems.72.As a result, any lessening of their partner‟s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.73.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak.74.Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.75.If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think about the music of your own voice.Section B Chinese-English Translation76.每个人都必须为自己的所作所为负责任。

Well, differences can mean problems. but only when they are not properly understood.Imagine Adam alone in the Garden of Eden and you will have an idea about the way manymen feel today. If the major issue for women is overload in their life----balancing career, relationships, children, home ---- the crisis for men is loneliness and the loss of women.Twenty-five years ago, most men came home from work to a warm meal, a clean house, thedevotion of a gentle wife. Now the majority of women work outside, they are no longer thefull-time housewives as before, so men are feeling deserted and easily hurt.Women get emotional support through a network of friends and family. Most men don't havesuch relationships; they are intimate only with their wives or lovers. As a result, any lessening ofabandonment.their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejection or Bob's wife Sandy has a full-time job, and he really prefers her bringing home extra income.Yet he also feels uneasy and troubled. "When I get home at the end of the day, wanting to have atalk with Sandy,'' he said, "She puts me of. First she makes dinner, then the kids need something,or a friend calls her. She talks with her sister, her girlfriends, her workmates, but not with me. Isometimes do feel abandoned and annoyed."Since most men have difficulty admitting loneliness and hurt, they tend to become angryinstead. Bob's constant complaints and criticism made Sandy confused and irritated. Eventually,they came up with a simple solution that m et both Bob’s need for time and Sandy's sense of responsibility to others. Thefirst half-hour af ter arrived home from work was “theirs”, they would sit together and just talk to each other about everything they want to say.51. Many men feel hurt and abandoned because _____________.A) women think it’s unfair to stay at home doing houseworkB) their wives are no longer gentle and caring to the familyC) the equality of men and women is strongly emphasizedD) most women have their own jobs and don’t hav e enough time and energy caring aboutmentowards them?52. Why do men care a lot about their coupler’s attitudeA) Because their differences can mean problems,B) Because they don't have a network of friends and family,C) Because they only want to have an intimate relation with their wives.D) Because men lack confidence nowadays.53. Which of the following statements about Bob and Sandy is true?A) Bob doesn't wish Sandy to do a full-time job.B) Sandy is too busy to have time talking with Bob.C) Sandy puts Bob off since there's no common topic between them anymore.D) Sandy feels equal to Bob now and no longer loves him as before.54. What does the passage want to tell us?A) Differences between men and women would certainly bring problems.B) All human beings should be considered equal.C) Only sameness could bring happiness to a marriage life.D) Mutual understanding between men and women helps to solve problems.Passage TwoMany people have the experience that getting up in the morning is so difficult and painful.This might be called laziness. But Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation to this, he has proved thateveryone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you're feeling “h That’s true. The time o f day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiarmonologue as: "Get up, Tom! You'll be late for school again!'' The possible explanation to thetrouble is that T om is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cyclesmean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can't change your energy cycle, butyou can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help a lot. Maybe you're sleepy in theevening but feel you must stay up late anyway, counteract your cycle to some extent by habituallystaying up later than you want to. However, if your energy is low in the morning but you have animportant job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, butyou'll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Siton the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome searchfor clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in theafternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.55. According the passage, what might bring family quarrels to the end?A) Stopping familiar monologues every day.B) A sudden change of a family member’s energy cycle.C) Being aware of energy cycles of other family members.D) Trying to control the energy cycles of other member56. If one wants to do better at his low point in the morning, he should_________.A) change his energy cycle B) go to bed earlier the day beforeC) try to overcome his laziness D) get up earlier than usualyour energy” mean?57. What does the sentence “get off to slow start which savesA) It will help you to control your temper early in the day.B) It will enable you to concentrate on your routine work.C) It will help to keep y our energy for the whole day’ s work.D) It will keep your energy cycle under control all day.58. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A) Dr Klriman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.B ) Habit can help people adjust to their own energy cycle.C) Each person has his own energy cycle.D) Getting up with a slow start helps us to save energy for work.Passage ThreeA person with a flat, dull voice which neither rises nor falls sounds like a flat and dull person.on thatBut he or she may not be! While we can’t deny the fact that people can give the impressithey are bored, anxious friendly or angry just by the sound of their voice.A French friend of mine once said to me. " Your accent in French is excellent but you willnever sound like a Frenchman until you put all your heart into your voice. It is a pity because youare a lively person and yet you don’t sound lively to a Frenchman!"We learn the grammar and vocabulary and even the correct pronunciation of the foreignlanguage, but we may forget the important emotional effect of the music of our speech. For Britishpeople, the intonation of language is attractive. That's to say, the rise and fall in the sound of ourvoice when we speak really matters. It's unfortunate that the intonation of some other countriescan often communicate the wrong meaning.British people sometimes feel offended because they think the other person is unfriendlyeven if he has spoken a perfect English sentence! And this failure of communication can alsohappen between British people themselves.If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think aboutthe music of your own voice. Especially when you meet someone from a different part of yourcountry or from another country, you should be careful! Don’t judge them only by their intonation.59. What does the writer want to show through the example in the second paragraph?A) T o learn a foreign language well, we must learn the sound and pronunciation wellB) Grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation are not the only important elements in learninga foreign language.C) A person with a flat, dull voice will not give other good impression.D) In learning a foreign language, we must talk to the native speakers frequently.60.

The legal limit is.08.Sergeant J.Litchie said Dennison also had been charged with a DUI in January when she crashed at the same spot and registered a blood alcohol level of.380.If found guilty of the second offense,she faces up to10years in prison and fines in excess of$2,000.A telephone message the Associated Press left at a listing for Dennison in Truckee on Tuesday was not immediately returned. 36.Who is the author of the passage?A.A passenger.B A policeman.C.A judge.D.A journalist.37.Why couldn't the woman stand and walk?A.She had lost too much blood.B.She was scared.C She drank too much.D.She had a sudden stomachache.38.Why could the woman be Imprisoned for10years?A.She was caught DUI twice.B.She had her car crashed.C.She refused to take a blood test.D.She drove without a driving license.39.What does the word"nabbed"in the title mean?A.Arrested.B.Attacked.C.Charged.D.Punished.Passage TwoThere were many different cultures in the ancient world,butthe two that had the most influence on European and American civilizations were the Greek and the Roman.Often these two cultures are lumped together in our minds,as if they were really exactly alike.But that is not the case.In many ways the Greeks and the Romans could not have been more different.The Greeks were truly democratic,often without a single leader but instead governed by a group of men chosen by the people.The Romans were semi-democratic.They had a governing Senate,but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders.But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic.Their buildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples,columns,and decorative forms.The Romans,on the other hand,were more engineers than artists.They concentrated their efforts on urban planning,well-functioning water pipes,and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar.Both peoples ate very well indeed:lots of fish,fresh vegetables and fruits,healthy meals,holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.In fact,it would probably be fair to say that they both loved lifein their warm,sea-oriented climates,and they both lived a full life.40.What is the first paragraph about?A.The Greek and the Roman were similar.B People misunderstood European civilization.C.Greek civilization was quite different from Roman civilization.D.European civilization influenced American civilization greatly.41.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The Romans had more political awareness.B.The Romans had less political freedom and democracy.C.The Romans had more freedom to choose their leader.D.The Romans had fewer people elected into the government.42.What were the Greeks famous for?A.The overall planning of a city or a town.B.The artistic decoration of the buildings.C.The practical functions of the buildings.D.The system of water supply and transportation.3.How are the two cultures alike?A.Both loved the sea.B.Both lived long lives.C.Both loved cooking.D Both enjoyed talking over meals.Passage ThreeAs recently as three decades ago,many Americans believed that using credit was an unwise and dangerous way to pay for what they bought.Some even thought that owing money to a store or a thing to be credit company was something to be ashamed of.Good citizens,they believed,always bought what they wanted with real money and they paid the full price immediately.Today,however,all that has changed.Credit,as some observers have noted,has become a way of life in the United States. More and more Americans now are depending on those small pieces of plastic,credit cards,to pay for large purchases such as televisions,record players or furniture.Many people today would consider it unusual not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant diner,a hotel room or an airline trip.And there are some situations in which Americans must have credit cards.If they want the temporary use of a car,for example,they first must give the car rental company the number of their credit card.That number is considered a guarantee that they will return the car and pay for using it.Credit cards otter two major services to Americans.First of all, they are easier and safer to carry than large amounts of money. Second,they permit people to borrow,to have the immediatepleasure of owning something,even if they do not have enough money to pay for it at the time.With credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month instead of when they buy them.And when the time does come to pay,most credit cards offer people a choice.They can pay all of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between5and10percent of what they owe.44.What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadays according to the passage?A.They consider it valuable.B.They regard it as a shame.C.They think it dangerous.D.They find it quite convenient.45.Why does the car rental company ask for the credit card number?A.To prevent the overuse of the car.B.To make sure that the car won't be damaged.C.To make sure the user return the car and pay for using it.D.To ensure that the car is safely and timely returned46.What advantage can credit card holders have？A.They can choose not to pay for their purchasesB.They can easily borrow money at a lower interestC.They can own something before they actually pay for it.D.They can pay only a small amount of what they owe.47.What is the best tittle for the passage?A.Credit--a Way of Life in AmericaB.Credit Services in America.C.Convenience of Living in AmericaD.History of Credit Cards in AmericaPassage FourAt the1893Columbian Exposition,a World Fair held in Chicago, chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displayed.It caught the eye of M.S.Hershey,who saw the potential for chocolate.He installed chocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster,and produced his first chocolate bars in1894.Other Americans began mixing in other materials to make up new candy bars throughout the end of the1890's and the early 1900's.But it was World War I that really brought attention to the candy bar.The U.S.Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide20to40pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases.The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed to American soldiers in Europe.Eventually the task of making smaller pieces wasturned back to the manufacturers.By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home,the American candy bar business was assured.Why?Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same.As a result.from that time on and through the1920’s,candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States,and as many as 40,000different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston,and New York.The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar,corn syrup,and milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48.Why did M.S.Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?A.He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.B.He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become popular.C.There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.D.He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at the fair.49.Which event brought the booming of American candy bar business?A.The adding of new materialsB.The demand in the army during WWIC The purchase of new machinesD.The appearance of smaller candy bars50.What does the underlined word"seat"in the last paragraph most probably mean?A.FocusB.PositionC.ChairD.Center51.What is this passage mainly about?A.A World Fair held in Chicago in1893.B.The popularity of the American candy bar industry.C.The candy bar industry during World War I.D.The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America's much-beloved authors, creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and adults alike,such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,The Prince and The Pauper,and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Twain passed away in 1910,leaving behind a treasure of great literature.But now,100 years after his death,he'll have a brand-new book on the shelves:a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb:it was his wish that publishers wait until100years after his death to publish his memoirs(自传),which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than5,000pages,and likely won't be all sunshine and roses.It seems that Twain harbored some bitterness against former girlfriends and ex-friends.He also writes negatively about politicians of his day,such as Teddy Roosevelt.It,s likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously published,the autobiography has never been available in full,and should provide great insights into the man behind he classic books.The first volume of the set will be available in November,and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley.There are so many biographies of Twain,and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography,editor Robert Hirst told The Independent."But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote.By publishing wain's book in full,we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sortof a man he was.”52.According to Paragraph1,which of the following statements is TRUE of Mark Twain？A.He left behind lots of money.B.His works were written for children.C.His works are full of adventures.D.He is famous for his great works.53.What can we learn about Mark Twain's autobiography from the passage?A.It has been published against Twain's will.B.It shows Twain's respect for politicians.C.It will be published in full.D.It has been recently finished.54.What does the underlined word"trilogy"in Paragraph4 mean?A.A work in three volumes.B An imaginative work.C.A collection of stories.D.Memoirs of famous people.55.What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?A.To supplement other biographies.B.To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C.To introduce Mark Twain's works.D.To expose new discoveries about Mark Twain.V.Daily Conversation(15points) Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue byblackening the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet.A.When shall we set offB.What is the timeC.have a wonderful timeD.start packingE.be great funF.What could I getG.What should I takeH.where toMary:How do you like the idea of having a picnic this Saturday?

Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions：There are five reading passages in this part．Each passage is followed by four questions．For each question there are four suggested answers marked A，B，C and D．Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet．Passage OneAt first glance, there hardly seems to be any comparison between Ravenna and Rome, but back in the 5th century, it was Ravenna that served as capital of the Westem Roman Empire. In this city. Roman rulers built monuments which are famous, then and now, for their sweeping mosaics（镶嵌图案）. Seven of Ravenna’s eight buildings from the 5th and 6th centuries are spectacularly decorated with examples of this ancient art. “in the past, many people couldn’t read or write.”says tour guide and Ravenna native Silvia Giogoli. “Mosaics were a way to explain the religion and the political situation to the people.”Visitors to Ravenna can look at pieces of art by ancient artists, listen to musicians, and learn to make their own masterpieces.Travel TipsWhen to Go:June—October;weather is pleasant in April and May but historic sites can get crowded with shool groups.Where to Stay: Walk through historic district sites from Albergo Cappello and stay at a modern Hotel Centrale Byron.How to Get Around: Take the train from Bologna, and then walk, bike, or use taxis within the city.Where to Eat or Drink: Housed in a former movie theater, two-story Ristorante Cinema Alexander blends 1940s Hollywood flavor with homemade Emilia Romagna courses and attentive service(helpful in translating the menu). For fresh seafood, try Osteria L’Accigua and Da Buco.What to Buy: Watch the next generation of Emilia Romagna mosaic artists create contemporary and traditional pieces in local studios where modern artists use the same methods as their Byzantine forefathers.What to Read Before you Go: Ravenna in Late Antiquity, by Deborah Mauskopf Deliyannis(2010), provides a wide-ranging look at the city‘s art, architecture, and history.( )36. In ancient times, mosaics were used to .A. display artistic achievementsB. compete with Roman paintingsC. explain religion and politicsD. teach reading and writing( )37. Lots of schoolchildren visit historic sites such as Ravenna in .A. MayB. JuneC. SeptemberD. October( )38. If you want to try fresh seafood, you should go to .A. Emilia RomagnaB. Hotel Centrale ByronC. Ristorante Cinema AlexanderD. Osteria L‘Accigua and Da Buco( )39. Why is Ravenna in Late Antiquity recommended in this passage?A. Because it was written by a famous writer.B. Because tourists get to learn a lot about the city from it.C. Because tourists can get valuable tips for buying art pieces.D. Because it provides useful information about the city‘s weather.Passage TwoWhen you pat your pet dog, he wags（摆来摆去）his tail. That is his way of saying that he loves you. And, if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things. Every movement of the tail means a different thing. If the dog is wagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness; if his tail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight; and if his tail is tucked （塞）behind his legs, it means he is giving up the fight.Unlike dogs, cats‘ tail language is not so expressive. When a cat feels threatened, he puffs himself up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension. And when he is displeased with something, he lashes out（甩动）his tail.The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it. Earlier, when dogs and cats had not become friends with human beings, they were predators. They used to hunt other animals for their food. When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy. When they were close to each other,dogs could use facial expressions to talk. But, for long-distance communication, they used their tails. Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone. So, they did not need to use tail language too often. As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs‘ .( )40. What does it mean when a dog‘s tail is straight?A. It has a lot to say to you.B. It wants to stop fighting.C. It is going to fight.D. It likes to be patted.( )41. A cat tries to appear big when it is .A. facing a dangerB. unhappyC. ready to huntD. hungry( )42. Which of the following does the author intend to say?A. Dogs and cats are not good friendsB. Dogs are much friendlier than cats.C. Dogs and cats are usually good pets.D. Dogs use tail language more than cats.( )43. In the last paragraph, the underlined word ―predators‖ refers to .A. animals that follow and obey other animalsB. animals that kill and eat other animalsC. animals that live in the wildD. animals kept by peoplePassage ThreeLike any teenagers, the face of One Teen Story is changing fast. Just a year olk, the monthly magazine of short fiction for young people is getting a new editor-in-chief: Patrick Ryan, 47, the associate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013. He left the London-based literary journal last month.Editing One Teen Story- the younger sibling（姊妹篇）of One Story magazine-will offer Ryan a chance to reach a whole new audience. “It’s really the only magazine for young aduit short fiction,”he says from his office in New York. “It’s tremendously exciting that there are younger people out there who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month. That form is usually only presented when it’s forced upon them in schools.”Designed for readers 14 and up, One Teen Story publishes nine issues a year. Like its sibling magazine, it doesn’t carry photographs or advertising. It’s just exactly what it says:one story perissue.Ryan says young people are―looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identify with. It‘s not about having a message or positive spin（说教）. It always start on a character level, and it has to have an interesting story. If you look at the ‗Twilight‘ characters and the ‗Harry Potter‘ characters, they feel very contemporary.‖Ryan also sees the magazine as a way to encourage talented authors. ― I would love th make One Teen Story the first publication for writers who then go on and keep at this business. I just really love the idea that this magazine would be the starting point for somebody –would be the push to make a talented writer feel that it was worth keeping at this.‖( )44.

Political teachings and moral messages.( )47. In the last paragraph, the underlined phrase “this business” means .A. reading stories.B. writing storiesC. editing magazinesD. making moneyPassage FourCouples are restricting the size of their families in the UK because of cash worries brought on by the financial crisis and the subsequent decline. We‘re now up to nearly 3.7 million families where there is an only child, a rise from about 3.3 million in 2005. That means nearly half of all parents have only one child.Financial worries aren‘t the only driver. The trend towards later motherbood has been mentioned as a cause, as have soaring casts of raising a child, which have been calculated as $222,500 from birth to 21 years of age. This is an increase of nearly 40% in 10 years.The increasing availability of IVF（试管婴儿）is also a factor and an interesting one. Couples who might have remained childless in the past now invest in IVF and get pregnant. And because of the cost they stop after one child.It may not be a bad thing; there are outstanding examples of talented only children. Some argue that being an only child promoted their success. These include actors Natalie Portman and AI Pacino, golfer. Tiger Woods and even Queen Victoria. A study from the Institute for Social and Economic Research at the University of Essex also showed that the fewer brothers and sisters a child has, the happier they are. It seems fighting for parental attention and affection-which sometimes descends into physical fights-is mor stressful than any adult had previously thought. And it‘s not compensated（弥补）by having a playmate.( )48. The smaller size of UK families is mainly related to .A. financial problemsB. technical problemsC. health problemsD. cultural problems( )49. The passage shows that IVF is .A. safer than natural pregnancyB. very popular in UKC. very expensiveD. a risky investment( )50. What is a proved advantage of one-child family?A. Improved family lifeB. Higher number of sports stars.C. Efficient family education.D. Promotion of children’s success.( )51. The findings of the institute at the University of Essex might mean that .A. the only children‘s lack of playmates causes problemsB. the only children are much happier than othersC. parents-children relationship is off balanceD. children have to struggle for parental lovePassage FiveAbout 79 million Americans have pre-diabetes（糖尿病前期）. That means they have blood sugar that‘s higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed（诊断）with type 2-at least not yet. One long-term study reported by the American Diabetes Association found that 11% of people with pre-diabetes develop the full-blown disease each year. Another study shows that pre-diabetes will probably become type 2 in 10 years or less.Yet, that process is not inevitable. Last year, scientists in Colorado found that people with pre-diabeles who lowered their blood sugar to normal levels—levels—even briefly—were 56% less likely to reach type 2 levels.If you have pre-diabetes, here are four steps to help prevent or delay a diabetes diagnosis.Lose 7% of your body weight. That is about 15 pounds for the persons who weigh 200. Dropping that small percentage has been shown to lower the risk of developing type 2 by close to 60%.Exercise 30 minutes five days a week. Whether you do the 30 minutes in one shot or in three 10-minute sessions, the benefit is the same. Choose certain exercises, such as fast walking,playing tennis or lifting weights. Physical activity such as sweeping floors works,too.Turn to your doctor. In some cases, pre-diabetes raises the risk of heart disease and stroke by 50%. Your doctor may use some medicine to control your glucose（葡萄糖）levels and keep your blood pressure in check.Know your numbers. To see if your pre-diabetes is improving, have your blood sugar checked regularly. A fasting blood sugar of 100 to 125 mg/dl suggests pre-disbetes; 126 mg/dl or above is diabetes; and below 100 is normal. Other tests, including glucosc tolerance and AIC, also are used to monitor blood sugar.( )52.What do we learn from the two studies mentioned in Para graph 1?A. Pre-diabetes will surely become type 2 diabetes.B. Pre-diabetes is likely to become diabetes within years.C. Enough attention should be paid to the treatment of type 2.D. Pre- diabetes is ranked No. 1 danger threatening Americans‘health.( )53. To prevent or delay a diabetes diagnosis, people with pre-diabetes should pay most attention to .A. glucose levelsB. exercisesC. heart diseaseD. stroke( )54. Which of the following suggests that you have pre-diabetes?A. 70 mg/dl.B. 90 mg/dl.C. 110 mg/dl.D.130 mg/dl.( )55. What column of a newspaper is most likely to have this article?A. Technology.B. Entertainment.C. Education.D. Health.Ⅴ.Daily Conversation (15 points)Directions：Pick out five appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet．Father: How’s your day at school, Costa?Costa: 56 , Daddy!

He has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed ot be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applications waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I mad e the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.56. Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A. He was out of workB. He was bored with his jobC. He wanted a higher positionD. He hoped to find a better boss57. What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A.

Where there is a will, there’s a wayB. A friend in need is a friend indeedC. Good is rewarded with good.D. Two heads are better than oneBGeorge Gershwin, born in 1998, was one of America’s greatest composers. He published his first song when the was eighteen years old. During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.Many of Gershwin’s songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City. These palys were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s. Many of his songs have remained popular as ever. Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way — from jazz to country.In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music. Could jazz, some people asked, be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music. Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time, he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular. In 1928, Gershwin went to Paris. He applied to study composition (作曲>with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger, but she rejected him. She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style. While there, Gershwin wrote An American in Paris. When it was first performed, critics (评论家>were divided over the music. Some called it happy and full of life, to others it was silly and boring. But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States. It sill remains one of his most famous works.George Gershwin died in 1937, just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages. People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.61. Many of Gershwin’s musical works were ________ .A. written about New YorkersB. Composed for Paul WhitemanC. played mainly in the countrysideD. performed in various ways62. What do we know about the concert organized by Whiteman?A. It attracted more people to theatresB. It proved jazz could be serious musicC. It made Gershwin leader of the orchestraD. It caused a debate among jazz musicians.63. What did Gershwin do during his stay in Paris?A. He created one of his best worksB. He studied with Nadia BoulangerC. He argued with French criticsD. He changed his music style64. What do we learn from the last paragraph?A. Many of Gershwin’s works were lostB. The death of Gershwin was widely reportedC. A concert was held in memory of GershwinD. Brain cancer research started after Gershwin’s death.65. Which of the following best describes Gershwin?A. Talented and productiveB. Serious and boringC. popular and unhappyD. Friendly and honestCYou can’t always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. But designer Mikhail Belvacv doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet. That’s why h e created lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella. The designer says he come up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street ad saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy(伞蓬>built into a street lamp.” he said.The lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors(传感器>then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians shelter whenever it starts raining.In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360°motion sensor on the biberglass street lamp which detects whether any one’s using the lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lighting strike.Each lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take lampbrella into production, Belyacv says he recently introduced his creation one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on my street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.66. For what purpose did Belyacv create the lampbrella?A. To predict a heavy rainB. To check the weather forecastC. To protect people from the rainD. To remind people to take an umbrella67. What do we know from Belyacv’s worlds in Paragraph2?A. His creation was inspired by an experienceB. it rains a lot in the city of Saint PetersburgC. Street lamps are protected by canopiesD. He enjoyed taking walks in the rain68. Which of the following show how the lampbrella works?A. motor→canopy→sensorsB. Sensors→motor→canopyC. motor→sensors→canopyD. canopy→motor→sensors69. What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the lampbrella?A. Its moving speedB. Its appearanceC. Its installationD. Its safety70. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The designer will open a company to promote his productB. The lampbrella could be put into immediate productionC. The designer is confident that his creation is practicalD. The lampbrella would be put on show in MoscowDSparrow is a fast-food chain with 200 restaurants. Some years ago, the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company. Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining, the chain was generally in an unhealthy state. With more and more fast-food concepts reaching the market, the Sparrow menu had to struggle for attention. And to make matters worse, its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.Sparrow failed to grow for another two years. Until a new CEO, Carl Pearson, decided to build up its market share. He did a survey, which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain, while customers of other fast-food chains were unwilling to turn away from them. Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign. Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Spa rrow brand. The chain’s owner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy’s restaurants. Pearson resisted, arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun. Such an attempt toestablish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time. Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success, rather than customers’ speeding power. Finally, the owner accepted his idea.The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast-food industry. The TV ads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original sons performed by a variety of stars. Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product, the intension was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image. For example, he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover. (营业额>These efforts paid off, and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast-food chains in the regions where it operated.71. Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO?A. The number of its customers was decliningB. Its customers found the food unhealthyC. It was in need of financial supportD. Most of its restaurants were closed72. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Customers of Sparrow restaurantsB. Sparrow restaurantsC. Customers of other fast-food chainsD. other fast-food chains73. For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign?A. To build a good relationship with the publicB. To stress the unusual tradition of SparrowC. To lean about customers; spending power.D. T o meet the challenge from Marcy’s restaurants.74. The TV ads of Sparrow ________ .A. changed people’s views on pop starsB. amused the public with original songsC. focused on the superiority of its productsD. influenced the eating habits of the audience75. What was Pearson’s achievement as a CEO?A. He managed to pay off Sparrow’s debts.B. He made Sparrow much more competitiveC. He helped Sparrow take over a companyD.

Well, differences can mean problems, but only when they are not properly understood.Imagine Adam alone in the Garden of Eden and you will have an idea about the way many men feel today. If the major issue for women is overload in their life --- balancing career, relationship, children, home --- the crisis for men is loneliness and the loss of women. Twenty-five years ago, most men came home from work to a warm meal, a clean house, the devotion of a gentle wife, Now the majority of women work outside, they are no longer the full-time housewives as before, so men deserted and easily hurt.Women get emotional support through a network of friends and family. Most men don’t have such relationships; they are intimate only with their wives or lovers. As a result, any lessoning of their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.Bob’s wife Sandy has a full-time job, and he really prefers her bringing home extra income. Yet he also feels uneasy and troubled. “When I get home at the end of the day, wanting to have a talk with Sandy,” he said, “She puts me off. First she makes dinner, then the kids need something, or a friend calls her. She talks with her sister, her girlfriends, her workmates, but not with me. I sometimes do feel abandoned and annoyed.”Sine most men have difficulty admitting loneliness and hurt, they tend to become angry instead. Bob’s constant complaints and criticism made Sandy confused and irritated. Eventually, they came up with a simple solution that met both Bob’s need for time and Sandy’s sense of responsibility to others. The first half-hour after Bob arrived home from work was “theirs”, they would sit together and just talk to each other about everything they want to say.51.Many men feel hurt and abandoned because _______.A.women think it’s unfair to stay at home doing houseworkB.their wives are no longer gentle and caring to the familyC.the equality of men and women is strongly emphasizedD.most women have their own jobs and don’t have enough time and energy caring about men52.Why do men care a lot about their couples’ attitude towards them?A.Because their differences can man problemsB.Because they don’t have a network of friends and familyC.Because they only want to have an intimate relation with their wivesD.Because men lack confidence nowadays53.Which of the following statements about Bob and Sandy is true?A.Bob doesn’t with Sandy to do a full-time job.B.Sandy is too busy to have time talking with Bob.C.Sandy puts Bob off since there’s no common topic between then anymore.D.Sandy feels equal to Bob now and no longer loves him as before.54.What does the passage want to tell us?A.Differences between men and women would certainly bring problems.B.All human beings should be considered equal.C.Only sameness could bring happiness to a marriage life.D.Mutual understanding between men and women helps to solve problem.Passge TwoMany people have the experience that getting up in the morning is so difficult and painful. This might be called laziness. But D. Kleitman has a new explanation to this, he has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re feeling “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologue as: “Get up, Tom! You’ll he late for school again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that Tom is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better, Habit can help a lot. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway, counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. However, if your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.55.According the passage, what might bring family quarrels to the end?A.Stopping familiar monologues every dayB.A sudden change of a family member’s energy cycleC.Being aware of energy cycles of other family membersD.Trying to control the energy cycles of other members56.If one wants to do better at his low point in the morning, he should_____.A.change his energy cycleB. go to bed earlier the day beforeC.try to overcome his lazinessD. get up earlier than usual57.What does the sentence “get off to slow start which saves your energy” mean?A. It will help you to control your temper early in the day.B.It will enable you to concentrate on your routine work.C.It will help to keep your energy for the whole day’s work.D.It will keep your energy cycle under control all day.58.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A.Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.B.Habit can help people adjust to their own energy cycle.C.each person has his own energy cycle.D.Getting up with a slow stall helps us to save energy for work.Passage ThreeA person with a flat, dull voice which neither rises nor falls sounds like a flat and dull person! But he or she may not be ! While we can’t deny the fact that people can give the impression that they are bored, anxious, friendly or angry just by the sound of their voice.A French friend of min one said to me, “Your accent in French is excellent but you will never sound life a Frenchman until you put all your heart into your voice. Its a pity because you are lively person and yet you don’t sound lively to a Frenchman!”We learn the grammar and vocabulary and even the correct pronunciation of the foreign people, but we may forget the important emotional effect of the music of our speech, for British people, the intension of language is attractive. That is to say, the rise and fall in the sound of our voice when we speak really matters. It’s unfortunate that the intonation of some other countries can often communicate the wrong meaning.British people sometimes feel offended because they think the person is unfriendly even if he has spoken a perfect English sentence! And this failure of communication can also happen between British people themselves.If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think about the music of your own voice. Especially when you meet someone from a different part of your country or from another country, you should be careful! Don’t judge them only by their intonation!59.What does the writer want to show through the example in the second paragraph?A.To learn a foreign language well, we must learn the sound and pronunciation well.B.Grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation are not the only important elements in learningforeign language.C.A person with a flat, dull voice will not give other good impression.D.In learning a foreign language, we must talk to the native speakers fluently.60.The word “music” in the third paragraph means______.A.intonationB. rising toneC. sweet voiceD. falling tone61.British people sometimes feel offended while talking with others because_____.A.they can’t understand what the other person saysB.the other person says something rudeC.the language they speak are quite differentD.they misunderstand the other person’s words62.What is the main idea of the passage?A.To communicate with others successfully, we must know music well.B.We can’t simply judge a person by his voice, nor can we neglect intonation.C.Many listeners will not pay attention to the sound of one’s voice.D.It’s not easy for people from different countries or parts to communicate.Section BPart 1Part 2第II卷Part IV Translation (2 points each, 20 points)Section A: English-Chinese Translation71.In this age of equality, sameness between the sexed is emphasized as if differences haveto men problems.72.As a result, any lessening of their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejectionor abandonment.73.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when you cycle of body temperature is atits peak.74.Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energyor concentration for your sharper hours.75.If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think aboutthe music of your own voice.Section B: Chinese-English Translation76.每个⼈都必须为⾃⼰的所作所为负责任。

Each passage is followed by four questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneWoman nabbed for a DUI at same crash spotWed May21,2:17AM ETTRUCKEE，Calif.Call it drunken driving deja vu(记忆幻觉).For the second time in five months，a23-year-old California woman has been arrested after she crashed her car while driving under the influence(DUI)at the exact same spot north of Lake Tahoe.And to top it off,Truckee Police say that in both cases, her blood alcohol content was more than three times the legal limit.The police say Melissa Dennison of Truckee crashed at about noon on Sunday on Glenshire Drive just south of the Glenshire Bridge.They say she was extremely drunk and had trouble standing or walking.Her blood alcohol level initially was measured at346.The legal limit.08.Sergeant J.Litchie said Dennison also had been charged with a DUI in January when she crashed at the same spot and registered a blood alcohol level of380.If found guilty of the second offense,she faces up to10years in prison and fines in excess of2.000.A telephone message the Associated Press left at a listing for Dennison in Truckee on Tuesday was not immediately returned.36.Who is the author of the passage?A.A passenger.B.A policeman.C.A judge.D.A journalist.37.Why couldn't the woman stand and walk?A.She had lost too much blood.B.She was scared.C.She drank too much.D.She had a sudden stomachache.38.Why could the woman be imprisoned for10years?A.She was caught DUI twice.B.She had her car crashed.C.She refused to take a blood test.D.She drove without driving license.s39.What does the word"nabbed"in the title mean?A.Arrested.B.Attacked.C.Charged.D.Punished.Passage TwoThere were many different cultures in the ancient world, but the two that had the most influence on European and American civilizations were the Greek and the Roman.Often these two cultures are lumped together in our minds,as if they were really exactly alike.But that is not the case.In many waysthe Greeks and the Romans could not have been more different. The Greeks were truly democratic,often without a single leader but instead governed by a group of men chosen by the people.The Romans were semi-democratic.They had a governing Senate,but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders.But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic.Their buildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples, columns,and decorative forms.The Romans,on the other hand, were more engineers than artists.They concentrated their efforts on urban planning,well-functioning water pipes,and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar.Both peoples ate very well indeed:lots of fish, fresh vegetables and fruits,healthy meals,holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines. In fact,it would probably be fair to say that they both loved life in their warm,sea-oriented climates and they both liveda full life.40.What is the first paragraph about?A.The Greek and the Roman were similar.B.People misunderstood European civilization.C.Greek civilization was quite different from Roman civilization.D.European civilization influenced American civilization greatly.41.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The Romans had more political awareness.B.The Romans had less political freedom and democracy.C.The Romans had more freedom to choose their leader.D.The Romans had fewer people elected into the government.42.What were the Greeks famous for?A.The overall planning of a city or a town.B.The artistic decoration of the buildings.C.The practical functions of the buildings.aD.The system of water supply and transportation.43.How are the two cultures alike?A.Both loved the sea.B.Both lived long lives.C.Both loved cookingD.Both enjoyed talking over meals.Passage ThreeAs recently as three decades ago,many Americans believed that using credit was an unwise and dangerous way to pay for what they bought.Some even thought that owing money to a store or a credit company was something to be ashamed of.Good citizens,they believed,always bought what they wanted with real money and they paid the full price immediately.Today,however,all that has changed.Credit,as some observers have noted,has become a way of life in the United States.More and more Americans now are depending on those small pieces of plastic,credit cards,to pay for large purchases such as televisions,record players or furniture.Many people today would consider it unusual not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant dinner,a hotel room or an airline trip.And there are some situations in which Americans must have credit cards.If they want the temporary use of a car,for example,they first must give the car rental company the number of their credit card.That number is considered a guarantee that they will return the car and pay Credit cards offer two major services to Americans.First of all,they are easier and safer to carry than large amounts of money.Second,they permit people to borrow,to have the immediate pleasure of owning something,even if they do not have enough money to pay for it at the time.With credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month instead of when they buy them.And when the time does come to pay,most credit cards offer people a choice.They can pay all of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between5and10percent of what they owe.44.What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadays according to the passage?A.They consider it valuable.B.They regard it as a shame.C.They think it dangerous.D.They find it quite convenient.45.Why does the car rental company ask for the credit card number?A.To prevent the overuse of the car.B.To make sure that the car won't be damaged.C.To make sure the user return the car and pay for using it.D.To ensure that the car is safely and timely returned.46.What advantage can credit card holders have?A.They can choose not to pay for their

held in Chicago,chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displayed.It caught the eye of M.S.Hershey,who saw the potential for chocolate.He installed chocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster,and produced his first chocolate bars in1894.Other Americans began mixing in other materials to makeup new candy bars throughout the end of the1890's and the early 1900's.But it was World War I that really brought attention to the candy bar.The U.S.Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide20to40pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases.The blocks were cut into smaller distributed to American soldiers in Europe.Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers.By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home,the American candy bar business was assured.Why?Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same.As a result from that time on and through the1920's,candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States,and as many as40,000different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston,and New York.The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar,corn syrup,and milk were easily available.Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48.Why did M.S.Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?A.He was deeply impressed by the Columbian

authors, creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and adults alike,such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,The Prince and The Pauper,and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Twain passed away in1910,leaving behind a treasure of great literature.But now,100years after his death,he'll have a brand-new book on the shelves:a three-volume autobiography. Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb it was his wish that publishers wait until100years after his death to publish his memoirs)which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than5,000pages,and likely won't be all sunshine and roses.It seems that Twain harbored some bitterness against former girlfriends and ex-friends.He also writes negatively about politicians of his day,such as Teddy Roosevelt.It's likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously published the autobiography has never been available in full, and should provide great insights into the man behind the classic books.The first volume of the set will be available in November,and the trilogy is being published by the University of California,Berkeley."There are so many biographies of Twain,and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography",editor Robert Hirst told The Independent."But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote.By publishing Twain's book in full we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was."52.According to Paragraph1,which of the statements is TRUE of Mark Twain?A.He left behind lots of money.B.His works were written for children.C.His works are full of adventures.D.He is famous for his great works.53.What can we learn about Mark Twain's autobiography from the passage?A.It has been published against Twain's will.B.It shows Twain's respect for politicians.C.It will be published in full.D.It has been recently finished.54.What does the underlined word"trilogy"in Paragraph4mean?A.work in three volumes.B.An imaginative work.C.collection of stories.D.Memoirs of famous people.55.What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?A.To supplement other biographies.B.To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C.To introduce Mark Twain's works.D.To expose new discoveries about Mark TwainV.Daily Conversation(15points)Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogues by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.When shall we set offB.What is the timeC.have a wonderful timeD.start packingE.be great funF.What could I getG.What should I takeH.where toMary:How do you like the idea of having a picnic this Saturday?

If the major issue for women is overload in their life --- balancing career, relationship, children, home --- the crisis for men is loneliness and the loss of women. Twenty-five years ago, most men came home from work to a warm meal, a clean house, the devotion of a gentle wife, Now the majority of women work outside, they are no longer the full-time housewives as before, so men deserted and easily hurt.Women get emotional support through a network of friends and family. Most men don’t have such relationships; they are intimate only with their wives or lovers. As a result, any lessoning of their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.Bob’s wife Sandy has a full-time job, and he really prefers her bringing home extra income. Yet he also feels uneasy and troubled. “When I get home at the end of the day, wanting to have a talk with Sandy,” he said, “She puts me off. First she makes dinner, then the kids need something, or a friend calls her. She talks with her sister, her girlfriends, her workmates, but not with me. I sometimes do feel abandoned and annoyed.”Sine most men have difficulty admitting loneliness and hurt, they tend to become angry instead. Bob’s constant complaints and criticism made Sandy confused and irritated. Eventually, they came up with a simple solution that met both Bob’s need for time and Sandy’s sense of responsibility to others. The first half-hour after Bob arrived home from work was “theirs”, they would sit together and just talk to each other about everything they want to say.51.Many men feel hurt and abandoned because _______.A.women think it’s unfair to stay at home doing houseworkB.their wives are no longer gentle and caring to the familyC.the equality of men and women is strongly emphasizedD.most women have their own jobs and don’t have enough time and energy caring about men52.Why do men care a lot about their couples’ attitude towards them?A.Because their differences can man problemsB.Because they don’t have a network of friends and familyC.Because they only want to have an intimate relation with their wivesD.Because men lack confidence nowadays53.Which of the following statements about Bob and Sandy is true?A.Bob doesn’t with Sandy to do a full-time job.B.Sandy is too busy to have time talking with Bob.C.Sandy puts Bob off since there’s no common topic between then anymore.D.Sandy feels equal to Bob now and no longer loves him as before.54.What does the passage want to tell us?A.Differences between men and women would certainly bring problems.B.All human beings should be considered equal.C.Only sameness could bring happiness to a marriage life.D.Mutual understanding between men and women helps to solve problem.Passge TwoMany people have the experience that getting up in the morning is so difficult and painful. This might be called laziness. But D. Kleitman has a new explanation to this, he has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re feeling “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologue as: “Get up, Tom! You’ll he late for school again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that Tom is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better, Habit can help a lot. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway, counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. However, if your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.55.According the passage, what might bring family quarrels to the end?A.Stopping familiar monologues every dayB.A sudden change of a family member’s energy cycleC.Being aware of energy cycles of other family membersD.Trying to control the energy cycles of other members56.If one wants to do better at his low point in the morning, he should_____.A.change his energy cycleB. go to bed earlier the day beforeC.try to overcome his lazinessD. get up earlier than usual57.What does the sentence “get off to slow start which saves your energy” mean?A. It will help you to control your temper early in the day.B.It will enable you to concentrate on your routine work.C.It will help to keep your energy for the whole day’s work.D.It will keep your energy cycle under control all day.58.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A.Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.B.Habit can help people adjust to their own energy cycle.C.each person has his own energy cycle.D.Getting up with a slow stall helps us to save energy for work.Passage ThreeA person with a flat, dull voice which neither rises nor falls sounds like a flat and dull person! But he or she may not be ! While we can’t deny the fact that people can give the impression that they are bored, anxious, friendly or angry just by the sound of their voice.A French friend of min one said to me, “Your accent in French is excellent but you will never sound life a Frenchman until you put all your heart into your voice. Its a pity because you are lively person and yet you don’t sound lively to a Frenchman!”We learn the grammar and vocabulary and even the correct pronunciation of the foreign people, but we may forget the important emotional effect of the music of our speech, for British people, the intension of language is attractive. That is to say, the rise and fall in the sound of our voice when we speak really matters. It’s unfortunate that the intonation of some other countries can often communicate the wrong meaning.British people sometimes feel offended because they think the person is unfriendly even if he has spoken a perfect English sentence! And this failure of communication can also happen between British people themselves.If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think about the music of your own voice. Especially when you meet someone from a different part of your country or from another country, you should be careful! Don’t judge them only by their intonation!59.What does the writer want to show through the example in the second paragraph?A.To learn a foreign language well, we must learn the sound and pronunciation well.B.Grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation are not the only important elements in learning foreignlanguage.C.A person with a flat, dull voice will not give other good impression.D.In learning a foreign language, we must talk to the native speakers fluently.60.The word “music” in the third paragraph means______.A.intonationB. rising toneC. sweet voiceD. falling tone61.British people sometimes feel offended while talking with others because_____.A.they can’t understand what the other person saysB.the other person says something rudeC.the language they speak are quite differentD.they misunderstand the other person’s words62.What is the main idea of the passage?A.To communicate with others successfully, we must know music well.B.We can’t simply judge a person by his voice, nor can we neglect intonation.C.Many listeners will not pay attention to the sound of one’s voice.D.It’s not easy for people from different countries or parts to communicate.Section B第II卷Part IV Translation (2 points each, 20 points)Section A: English-Chinese Translation71.In this age of equality, sameness between the sexed is emphasized as if differences have to men problems.72.As a result, any lessening of their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.73.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when you cycle of body temperature is at its peak.74.Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentrationfor your sharper hours.75.If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think about the music ofyour own voice.Section B: Chinese-English Translation76.每个人都必须为自己的所作所为负责任。
