For each question or statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are required to make the correct choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That' s the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents are not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel free to do something they' ve been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.46. Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because .A. they have to look after their kidsB. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money47.

But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-waming systems, public education programs and evacuation(疏散) strategies. Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international waming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early waming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it' s close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.51. The first paragraph tells us that .A. man can easily defeat the natureB. tsunamis take place only in JapanC. man' s ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD. the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible52.

Several people connect over the Internet and agree to contact a seller of a specific product so that they can buy the same item as a group at a lower price. And the sellers benefit by selling many products at once.When people agree on group buying,individual members of the buying group can vouch for (替………担保)a particular seller’s quality to the rest of the group,therefore Tuangou helps of similar phenomena in Euroupe and North America.However,most of the group buying in these places is organized and done not by the team members themselves,but through online go-betweens.56.

For example, many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do, so teachers in the United States sometimes have trouble knowing whether their Japanese students understand and enjoy their lessons.Another example is the smile. As a common facial expression, it may show affection, convey politeness, or disguise(掩饰) true feelings. But in different cultures. smiles have different meanings. Many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even a suspicious behavior.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places, for American culture a smile is typically an expression of pleasure. Therefore some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don' t smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover emotional pain or embarrassment.

It is like bringing the world to your mailbox.Fiona, a member of ,says,''I love swapping postcards!Although it seems quite time-consuming to pick one ,write it and post it ,it is the amusement of receiving a flash of sunshine or humor that makes it worthwhile.''51.The underlined word ''Swapping''in Paragraph 1 means ____ .A.exchangingB.designingC.collectingD.writing52.The first paragraph tells us that ____ .A.postcards are simple and beautifulB.Swapping postcards is a hobby for all peopleC.Swapping postcards can keep pen friends in contactD.Those who swap postcards have lost interest in the real word53.Which of the following is true of ?A.Its members should pay for registrationB.It was created for a particular purposeC.Its members can share different hobbiesD.It was started by a group of citizens54.When will your name be added to the list of people to receive postcards on ?A.After one confirms the reception of your postcard.B.After you e-mail your first postcard.C.After you register on the websiteD.After one receives your address55.In Fiona's eyes,swapping postcards is ____ .A.time-savingbor-savingC.worthwhileD.humorousPassage 3Listening is an extremely complex communicative activity. In order to have a better understanding, to anticipate what is coming is very important.An effective listener should continuously develop more or less specific readiness for what will come next. If a listener hears what he has expected, it will be much easier for him to receive the information.But if what he hears is totally out of his expectation,he will fail to get the message.The skill to anticipate what is coming in listening comprehension depends largely on the listener's familiarity with the theme（主题）of the message.It also depends on the listener's knowledge of the speaker as well as the situation.Obviously, when we listen to something that we already have some information about, it is generally much easier for us to take in the new information .Therefore,pre-listening preparation seems to play an important role in increasing our comprehension .Before actual listening ,we could perhaps first give some thought to the topic ,discuss it with others ,and then read some related material and do some vocabulary work. If we could make ourselves fully prepared for the coming talks or lectures,we are more likely to become effective listeners.Of course,readiness beforehand is not at all enough .Active thinking must take place all the way through .In fact ,we should always try to think ahead of the speaker.56.The passage is most possible taken from ____ .A.a novelB.a textbookC.a news reportD.a fashion magazine57.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.How to think actively in listening comprehension.B.How to develop specific readiness before listening.C.The skills in anticipating in listening comprehension.D.The importance of anticipating in listening comprehension.58.The skill to anticipate in listening comprehension depends largely on ____ .A.the listener's emotionB.the difficulty of the messageC.the listener's communicative skillsD.The listener's familiarity with the topic59.In order to anticipate ,the first thing to do before actual listening may be ____ .A.do some vocabulary workB.think about the topicC.read some related materialD.discuss the topic with others60.What is the author's attitude towards anticipating in listening comprehension?A.Neutral.B.Positive.C.Negative.D.Critical.Passage 4When men get stick，they act like babies ，say women . But maybe the fairer sex should learn something useful from these guys ----it could save their lives，say researchers at the University of Michigan.When women have a heart attack ,they’re more likely to put off seeking help the men ,and after an attack,they’re less likely to take steps to improve their health . What’s the reason for the different responses? The results of a survey suggest that women are too tough; they think heart problem are simply not a big deal . When Steven Erickson and his colleagues asked 348 men and 142 women who had been admitted to the hospital for a heart attack about their symptoms and medication (用药情况)，they found that even though the women had more symptoms and were taking more medicine they rated their disease as being no more severe than the men did .For more on women and heart disease ,go to .61.The underlined expression "the fairer sex" in Paragraph 1 refers to ____ .A. menB. babiesC. womenD.researchers62.

You can have days with more than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic ocean, your ship enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back; traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five of twenty-three hours.If you travel by ship across the Pacific, you cross the international date line. By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins. When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward. Traveling east, today becomes yesterday, traveling west, it is tomorrow!51. The difference in time between zones is _________ ．A) more than seven daysB) twenty-four hoursC) one hourD) seven days52.

If you cross the Atlantic Ocean going east，you set your clock ______．A) ahead one hour in each new time zoneB) head by twenty-three hoursC) back one full day for each time zoneD) ahead one hour for the whole trip54.. The International Date Line is the name for _______．A) any time zone in the Pacific OceanB) any point where time changes by one hourC) the point where a new day beginsD) the beginning of any new time zonePassage TwoMost people have had a dog or wanted one as their companion at some time in their lives. If you are thinking of buying a dog, however, you should first decide what sort of companion you need and whether the dog is likely to be happy in the surroundings you can provide. Specialist advice is available to help you choose the most suitable breed of dog. But in part, the decisiondepends on common sense. Different dogs were originally developed to perform specific tasks. So, if you want a dog to protect you or your house, for example, you should choose a breed that has the right size and characteristicsYou must also be ready to devote a good deal of time to train the dog when it is young and give it the exercise it needs throughout its life, unless live in the country and can let it run freely. Dogs are demanding pets. Cats love the house and so are satisfactory with their place which is secure, but a dog is loyal to its master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection.The best time to buy a baby dog is when it is between 6 and 8 weeks old so that it can transfer its affection from its mother to its master. If baby dogs have not established a relationship with the human being until they are over three months old, their strong relationship will always be with dogs. They are likely to be too shy when they are brought out into the world to become good pets.55. Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?A) Size and characteristics of the dogs should be considered too.B) It is common sense that is the most important when choosing a dog.C) You should decide what kind of dog you want.D) You can always get help from the specialists.56. What is mentioned as a consideration in buying a dog?A) The price of the dog.B) The color of the dog.C) Whether the dog will fit the environment.D) Whether the dog will get along with the other pets in the house.57. Why does the writer say a dog is a more demanding pet than a cat?A) It must be looked after carefully.B) It demands more food and space.C) It needs more love and care.D) It must be trained so that it won’t bite.58. Why is it advised to buy a baby dog under three months old?A) It’s easier to buy a baby dog under three months old.B) They are less likely to run away.C) They are less likely to be shy with human beings.D) It’s easier for them to form a relationship with their masters.Passage ThreeStudents who want to attend an American college or university must explain how they will pay for their education. They have to show that they will be able to pay for each year of study.Students have to consider not only the tuition, the cost of classes, but also meals and a place to live, known as room-and-board. They also need money for books , supplies ,social activities and other things.Educational advisers say foreign students should keep enough money in a local bank to pay for at least two months of spending. So how much will it cost every year to study at an American school? Generally speaking, the answer is: a lot. The University of Washington says foreign students are paying more than thirty-six thousand dollars this year. Its website says the Universityof Washington does not offer financial assistance to international students.This is generally true of American schools, especially at the undergraduate level. It means foreign students are faced with a heavy financial burden.The international application for the university includes a Statement of Financial Responsibility that must be signed. Students must also provide a bank letter or statement from within the past six months. And they have to name anyone who will help with payments. These people must send proof from a bank to show that they have the money.The government or employer may be able to help you pay all or some college costs. A good idea is to ask at least eighteen months before you want to start classes in the United States.Enough time should be ensured to go through procedures.59. Which statement is true according to the first paragraph?A) Foreign students in America can hardly support themselves.B) They should show that they are able to pay the first year of their study.C) Room-and-board refers to the expense on meals and accommodation.D) Students intending to attend an American college or university should explain who will payfor their education.60. According to educational advisers, how many months of expense should be ensured by foreign students?A) At least two months.B) At least six months.C) At least twelve months.D) At least eighteen months.61. What is Not included in the international application for the university?A) A signed Statement of Financial Responsibility.B) A name list of anyone who will offer help for payments.C) A bank statement issued in the past six months.D) Proofs from banks showing that the students have got the money.62. American universities _________ to international students at the undergraduate levelA) sometimes offer partial financial assistance.B) occasionally offer financial assistance.C) generally do not offer financial assistance.D) always offer financial assistance.Section B.Directions: Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column.Mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through thecentre.山东省2012年普通高等教育专升本统一考试英语试卷二第四部分翻译（本大题共10小题，每小题2分，共20分）Part IV TransalationSection ADirections:Put the following sentences into Chinses.All of them are taken from the passages you have just read.71 Traveling west, you set your clock back; traveling east, you set it ahead._______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ 72 Different dogs were originally developed to perform specific tasks._______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________73 A dog is loyal to its master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection_______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________74 This is generally true of American schools, especially at the undergraduate level._______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________75 The government or employer may be able to help you pay all or some college costs._______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________Section BDirections:Put the following sentences intoEmglish.76 我喜欢农村生活胜过城市生活。

Swapping postcards can keep pen friends in touch . A postcard is a simple and beautiful way for someone to share his thoughts and memories .There are some great websites that can help one develop his interest in postcard swapping . For example,postcrossing. com,started in 2005 by a Portuguese citizen,is a free website that connects people who share a passion for swapping postcards. If you want to receive postcards from other members ,you should e-mail a postcard to the address sent by the website after registration(注册) . After the individual confirms that he has received the card, your name will be added to the list of people to receive postcards .Swapping postcards with people in other countries is also a great way to learn about the world;eachpostcard can be a window to another culture. It is like bringing the world to your mailbox. Fiona, a member of postcrossing. com,says,"I love swapping postcards!Although it seems quite time-consuming to pick one ,write it and post it ,it is the amusement of receiving a flash of sunshine or humor that makes it worthwhile. /（分数：10.00）(1).The underlined word "Swapping"in Paragraph 1 means ______ .A．exchanging B．designing C．collecting D．writing（分数：2.00）A. √B.C.D.解析：(2).The first paragraph tells us that ______ .A．postcards are simple and beautifulB．Swapping postcards is a hobby for all peopleC．Swapping postcards can keep pen friends in contactD．Those who swap postcards have lost interest in the real word（分数：2.00）A.B.C. √D.解析：(3).Which of the following is true of postcrossing. com?A．Its members should pay for registrationB．It was created for a particular purposeC．Its members can share different hobbiesD．It was started by a group of citizens（分数：2.00）A.B. √C.D.解析：(4).When will your name be added to the list of people to receive postcards on postcrossing. com?

In order to have a better understanding, to anticipate what is coming is very important. An effective listener should continuously develop more or less specific readiness for what will come next. If a listener hears what he has expected, it will be much easier for him to receive the information. But if what he hears is totally out of his expectation,he will fail to get the message. The skill to anticipate what is coming in listening comprehension depends largely on the listener's familiarity with the theme(主题)of the message. It also depends on the listener's knowledge of the speaker as well as the situation. Obviously, when we listen to something that we already have some information about, it is generally much easier for us to take in the new information . Therefore,pre-listening preparation seems to play an important role in increasing our comprehension . Before actual listening ,we could perhaps first give some thought to the topic ,discuss it with others ,and then read some related material and do some vocabulary work. If we could make ourselves fully prepared for the coming talks or lectures,we are more likely to become effective listeners. Of course,readiness beforehand is not at all enough . Active thinking must take place all the way through . In fact ,we should always try to think ahead of the speaker.（分数：10.00）(1).The passage is most possible taken from ______ .A．a novel B．a textbook C．a news report D．a fashion magazine（分数：2.00）A.B. √C.D.解析：(2).What is the first paragraph mainly about?A．How to think actively in listening comprehension.B．How to develop specific readiness before listening.C．The skills in anticipating in listening comprehension.D．The importance of anticipating in listening comprehension.（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D. √解析：(3).The skill to anticipate in listening comprehension depends largely on ______ .A．the listener's emotionB．the difficulty of the messageC．the listener's communicative skillsD．The listener's familiarity with the topic（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D. √解析：(4).In order to anticipate ,the first thing to do before actual listening may be ______ . A．do some vocabulary workB．think about the topicC．read some related materialD．discuss the topic with others（分数：2.00）A.B. √C.D.解析：(5).What is the author's attitude towards anticipating in listening comprehension? A．Neutral. B．Positive. C．Negative. D．Critical.（分数：2.00）A.B. √C.D.解析：Passage 4When men get stick，they act like babies ，say women . But maybe the fairer sex should learn something useful from these guys ——it could save their lives，say researchers at the University of Michigan. When women have a heart attack ,they're more likely to put off seeking help the men ,and after an attack,they're less likely to take steps to improve their health . What's the reason for the different responses? The results of a survey suggest that women are too tough; they think heart problem are simply not a big deal . When Steven Erickson and his colleagues asked 348 men and 142 women who had been admitted to the hospital for a heart attack about their symptoms and medication (用药情况)，they found that even though the women had more symptoms and were taking more medicine they rated their disease as being no more severe than the men did .

By observing subtle changes in nature that would be unnoticeable to most people-in air currents, the flowering and shedding of leaves of certain trees, the behaviour of ants, bird songs, etc-they have been able to interpret weather patterns and provide valuable advice.What difficulty do local rainmakers face in making weather predictions?But the irregular weather patterns brought by climate change mean the rainmakers can no longer use those sighs to make their predictions. And they don’t have access to the technologies available to meteorologists <气象学家>."Climate change has come on so fast. People don’t know how to adapt or what to plant,〞says Obedi Osoce, a traditional weatherman. "Our traditional crops are disappearing because they cannot handle the new conditions. We need new strategies to handle climate change.〞Now a British-Canadian project is doing just that, linking the rainmakers with government meteorologists. The two groups get together each season and produce an agreed forecast to be spread using a variety of methods suited to communities where many cannot read or write-through ceremonies, public meetings and person-to person comma-kation.Both parties are pleased with the collaboration. " I think the two sciences equally valid. We are marrying our energies to help people better,〞says Mr. Onunga, a Nganyi community elder involved in the project.‘The results have been surprisingly good-the community agreed that the forecast was accurate,〞says Gilbert Ouma, a lecturer at the University of Nairobi. "Through this project we hope to learn what it is that we can share together to live today and to adapt to tomorrow,〞says Professor Laban Ogallo, leader of the Nganyi project.36. Which of the following has been used by traditional Nganyi rainmakers in weather prediction?A.Plant seedsB.Dog harksC.Bird songsD.Ocean currents37. What difficulty do local rainmakers face in making weather predictions? they don’t have access to the technologies available to meteorologistsA. They cannot find an effective way to deliver messages.B. They lack modern technologies to cope with climate change.C. They cannot get financial support from the local government.D. They lack the facilities to stop traditional crops from disappearing.38. How do people involved in the British-Canadian project feel about their cooperation?A. SatisfiedB.ConfusedC. HopefulD.Regretful39. Which statement best expresses the main idea of the passage?A. A British-Canadian project has been carried out to solve farming problems.B. The Nganyi people have made weather forecasts by observing changes in nature.C. New technologies have replaced traditional methods in weather prediction in Kenya.D. Scientists and Kenyan rainmakers work together in a joint weather prediction project.Passage TwoAfter taking a six-week, fully paid maternity leave <产假> earlier this year, Francine Gemperle was anxious to resume her job but reluctant to be away from her baby daughter, Veronika. Fortunately, she did’t have to choose between them. Maya Design, a Pittsburgh based creative consulting firm, allows parents to bring newborns into the office."If I’d had to leave my children after my maternity leave ended, I would never have goes back to work,〞says Gemperle, a designer and researcher, who brought her son Milo into the office after he was born.She’s not the only parent taking advantage of the benefit. Senior analyst Jon West brings his 10-mouth-old son, Owen, to the several times a month. In fact, whenWest considered using only part of his paternity leave, his co-workers urged him to take all six weeks."I had pressure to take that leave,〞recalls West, "People told me, it’s an important part of your life and you need to experience it.〞"No matter how quiet the baby is, it’s an obvious distraction <分心的事>,〞says Tory Johnson, the chief executive of Women for Hire, a New York City-based recruiting film.No one has complained yet. Even if somebody did, it wouldn’t matter to Mickey McManus, Maya’s CEO and president, who argues that the policy builds loyalty and helps parents shift back into work mode.As part of its balancing act, Maya shares up to 20% of quarterly profits with its employees. However, the size of those checks might be up in the air at the moment. The firm once laid off five workers and it is now considering 4-day weeks to avoid more layoffs.40.

A Company Taking Care of Young ParentsPassage ThreeHarry Potter fans will instantly recognize the snowy owl as Harry’s famous companies, Hedwig, but these beautiful owls are easily recognizable not for their magical associations, but for their large size and striking while feathers. Snowy owlsare, in fact, the only white owl, and they are a highly sought after species for many birdwatchers to add to their life lists.Foods: Small mammals, birds, fish.Habitat and Migration: Snowy owls are found in far northern latitudes includingtundra, a vast treeless frozen region in the Arctic. Their breeding grounds <繁殖地>are in the Arctic tundra, and they migrate south throughout Canada during the winter. In exceptionally server winters or when food supplies are searce, these owls can appear much further south than their normal range. While principally a North American bird, they can also migrate to the northern areas of Europe an Asia.Behaviour: Snowy owls, like all owls, are powerful animal bunters that are active mostly at night but can bunt and feed during the day, especially when food supplies are low. These owls will rest on the ground or on rocks, stumps and other low favorable points. Males can be fierce when defending the nest, and both genders willalso perform an "injured bird〞act to tempt animal invaders to go away from thenest.Reproduction: Snowy owls may incubate <孵卵> 3-10 eggs for 30-34 days, orthe incubation may be done primarily by the freak. The baby owls remain in the nest for 14-21 days and will attempt their first flight when they are 42-58 days old. Mated pairs will raise one group of young birds per year unless food supplies are inadequate and then no eggs may be produced.44、What have you learned from Paragraph 1?A.

Neither man’s admirers have been able to understand the success of the other one. And this tells us something of the difference between the generations that the two singers represent.There were similarities between Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley. Both reached fame while young and became very rich. Although neither one had any musical education, both developed their own musical styles, which were first criticized by the critics and later studied as new forms in the art of popular song. Both men had successful movie careers despite a total lack of acting ability.Both were creations of the microphone, which made it possible for singers with weak voices to be heard beyond the third now. With Bing the microphone was usually hidden; but Elvis brought it to the stage.The difference between the two men reflects the changing values in American life Crosby’s music was soothing< 令人舒畅的> , Presley’s was disturbing. Crosby was singing to wartime America. His audiences had all the disturbance they could handle in their private lives, they did not want to buy more at the record shop and the movie theater.Crosby’s admires always said how "relaxed〞and "natural〞he was. When Presley began his career, the whole country had become relaxed and easygoing. Its young people, who had no memory of trouble times, found it boring. They were hungry for excitement. They welcomed Elvis, who was certainly not the kind of young man their parents would admire. Presley was load and vulgar< 粗俗的> ——and be was bringing something new and exciting.It is probably too simple to explain each man in terms of changes in the economic and political situation. Something in the culture was also changing.48、Which of the following could be inferred about Crosby and Presley?A. They died in the same year.B. They became popular in 1977C. They influenced each other in musicD. They represented the postwar generation49、In which aspect the singers are similar to each other?A. Their songs were widely used in moviesB. They became famous in late year of their livesC. Their musical styles are recognized by the criticsD. Neither of them received any formal musical education50、What did Crosby’s audiences get from his music?A. ExcitementB. DisturbanceC. Ease and comfortD. Passion and thrill51、What is most Presley to be discussed if the passage continues?A. The political situation that the two singers facedB. The cultural changes that the two singers experiencedC. The economic influence on the music of the two singersD. The message that the two singers expressed in their musicPassage FiveThere are millions of left-handed people in the world. A number of them got together in 1975 to form an association called Left-handers International. The purpose of the organization is to fight discrimination <particularly to jobs> and to inform thepublic. They want everybody to understand the left-handers are neither "strange〞nor sick nor dangerous.Many studies have been made recently about hand preference in humans. They have brought interesting results. It has been found, for instance, that many more men than women are left-handed; that all children use both hands about equally until they are three years old; and that hand preference is not clearly marked until age six. Above that age, most people not only favour one particular hand but also have a favourite eye, a favourite ear and foot.We know that the left side of the body is controlled by the right side of the brain, which seems that this particular half is the seat of emotions, imagination, and of the sense of space. And, indeed, lefties in seem to be more creative than the right-handers; they also seem to be more athletic and to do better in some professions which ---like sports----require a good sense of space. In a large school of architecture , it was found in 1977 that 29% of the professes and 23% of the graduating students were left-handed---while lefties represent less than 10% of the general population.Finally, left-handers may be more stubborn and impulsive< 冲动的> thanright-handers. And they are more likely to suffer from problems such as stuttering< 口吃> and a difficulty in reading called dyslexia. The problems are more serious in left-handed persons who have been forced to favour their right hand. Doctors insist that one should never try to change a child’s hand preference.52、What does Left-handers International aim to do for left-handers?A. To create new jobsB. To promote equalityC. To show discriminationD. To study hand preference53、According to recent studies, when is hand preference formed?A. Before birthB. At birthC. At age threeD. At age six54、Compared with right-handers, left-handers______A. are less creativeB. are more easygoingC. have a better sense of spaceD. do better in most professions55、Left-handers are advised to stick to their hand preference because_____A. it is fun and comfortable to be left-handersB. the left hand is just as good as the right handC. it is difficult for them to switch to the right handD. changing hand preference may cause serious problemsV.

Therefore〔不是一连词,是一副词,表达因果.〕；moreover〔同样不是一连词,而且、此外〕；furthermore〔同样不是一连词,此外、而且〕19、一网解析：出题人考察情态动词语意的区别.get it go again是一势在必行的动作,否则,tomorrow会迟到.所以这一动作是"必须〞的,答案是D.20、一网解析：他对"how old〞是非常的_______,利用我们娴熟的中文,空格处填入的词语就明明白白了：敏感.答案是A.第三部分：完形填空21、一网解析：sports不但能够强身健体,而且还能够______lifeskills.利用我们娴熟的中文,空格处填入的词语就明明白白清清楚楚了：培养、养成.与之匹配的选项是B,develop"发展、养成〞.Stimulate"刺激、鼓舞〞；motivate"刺激,激励〞；create"创造、创作〔精神食物〕〞. 看出来没有,A与C选项的意思几乎一模一样的,当然排除.22、一网解析：learning to______with loss anddisappointment.学会______得与失.利用我们娴熟的中文,空格处填入：处理〔与with一起构成〕.答案是A,deal.Struggle with与…..做斗争；disagree with不同意.23、一网解析：利用我们做题的经验,我们应该能够很快明白出题人的出题意图：specifically"特别地、专门地〞,especially"特别、尤其〞的区别.Especially是"与众不同地〞,specially表达目的之类.例如：foodsare very cheap today , especially eggs..eggs与众不同的cheap；special 常用的是：商场东西降价时,会被贴上special的标签；如：I made a special food for you〔为你而special,目的吧〕. aspecial hospital 专门医院specialist 就是专家的意思.题干句子大意是这些好处是"与众不同的〞.答案是C.24、一网解析：confidence〔信心〕and self-esteem〔自尊〕______from a ……利用一点点语法知识空格处填入的是一不与物动词.利用我们娴熟的中文,空格处填入的词语应该是"增强、提高〞.排除D选项.其余三个选项都有"提高之意〞.它们的区别就是出题人的出题意图.Arise是一不与物动词,raise是一与物动词,lift是把具体的东西"升高〞,例如电梯之类的"提高〞.所以答案是A.25、一网解析：sports帮助孩子的healthy这是一乡村老太太都明明白白的概念,普通得不能再普通了.答案是D,regular.26、一网解析：利用我们娴熟的中文,和宝贵的常识储备,空格处填入"保持〞.答案是C.Rretain保留；reserve储备；prevent预防.27、一网解析：see….as….把…..看作…...题外话：看着孩子矫健的身躯驰骋在运动场上,那个美滋滋的劲儿甭提多受用了.此处用一比喻句把body比作了驰骋运动场的tool.的确,身体就是博取人生的一tool,病怏怏的body,那么你的tool就需要sports了.答案是B.28、一网解析：好身体就能够less 遭遇"feeling of low self-worth〞的可能性.答案是A,likely.其余选项不符合题意.29、一网解析：参加sports,其实就是一"in〞的过程.Pparticipate in本身就是一固定搭配"参加〞.30、一网解析：利用我们娴熟的中文,空格处填入"实现〞〔实现goal目标〕.选项中之意D选项符合题意.答案是D.31、一网解析：利用我们娴熟的中文,空格处填入"能够〞.能够建立信心.Bbe able to do sth"是指有能力去做某事〞.答案是A.Able与Capable的区别：词义上：able尤其指某一时之"能力〞；capable指的是一持久性的能力,另外尤其指某一专门的能力.搭配：able后面接todo ,而capable接of介词.例如：she is an able teacher.<能干,但是不知道是不是专业方面>.she is an capableteacher.<专业胜任>.32、一网解析：winning不仅仅是唯一的confidence builder,一个_____pass or assistant…..这里退一步来说,即使这样一个_____的与格或助手,所以利用我们娴熟的中文,空格处填入的就是"出色的〞.答案是C.33、一网解析：sports能够有抗抑郁的效果.下面就举例说明了,说明这是已经被证明了的.答案是D,"显示出〞.34、一网解析：承上启下,sports抗抑郁,那么孩子就不抑郁了,对生活充满了憧憬,与之匹配的选项是B,outlook"向外看→外面的世界很精彩→展望〞.35、一网解析：反过来improved self—esteem"促进〞了后面的"运动与学业表现〞.答案是C.第三部分：阅读理解第一篇36、一网解析：带着题干关键词：traditional rainmakers,一目一行定位答案X围：第一段第一个破折号后面.原文中只提与了C选项.答案是C.37、一网解析：一目一行定位答案X围：第二段最后.他们没有只有气象学家才能够available的technology.与之匹配的选项是B.答案是B.38、一网解析：带着题干关键词,Britain—Canadian,一目一行定位答案X围：第五段的第一句话中pleased〔高兴的〕.所以答案是A.39、一网解析：请你充分利用前面题目提供的信息来完成此类题目.36小题说传统的造雨的人的落后,只是简单地凭大自然的东西去判断是否下雨；后面还说没有气象学家的技术.38小题提与了合作.所以重点是"合作〞.答案是D.第二篇40、一网解析：Maya<玛雅>,此词语应该您至少见过,玛雅文明.带着题干关键词Maya,一目一行定位答案X围：第一段最后.原文中就出现了C选项中的consulting"咨询〞的关键词.答案是C.41、一网解析：带着题干关键词tory,一目一行定位答案X围：第五段.千万千万注意我们的阅读是一目一行的,比如此题目的阅读跨度就比较大了,到了第五段.很明显答案是A.42、一网解析：带着题干关键词,maya的policy,或者Mickey,一目一行定位答案X围：第六段.定位句是：builds loyalty和helpparents shift back into work mode.与之匹配的选项是B.答案是B.43、一网解析：充分利用前面题目提供的信息,41小题说对家庭提供"咨询服务〞；42小题说引导父母转换工作方式.再结合第一段的信息〔产假后,对孩子不放心〕,于是就此结束了后面的事情.答案是D.44、一网解析：哈利波特,比较熟悉吧.否则原文中猎取答案信息.第一段第一句话的snowy owl,和第二句话的white feathers,于是就能够确定答案是C.第三篇45、一网解析：第三段,一目一行.最后一句话.B选项似乎可以,但是第二句话就告诉了我们,它们也是往南迁移的,说明它们也不是固定生活在一个地方的,排除；它们的繁殖地是Arctic tundra,所以也可排除；同样D选项排除.答案是A.此题目容易错误选择B选项.46、一网解析：保护自己的方法是______.带着题干大意,一目一行定位答案X围：第四段最后.答案是B.47、一网解析：四个选项都有可能.原文中一目一行猎取答案信息.第四段最后一句话：除非食物短缺,否则它们是要繁殖后代,产蛋.与之匹配的选项是A.48、一网解析：带着题干关键词：后面的名字Grosby、presley,一目一行定位答案X围：第一段第一句话.这两个家伙都在1977年lost了.于是这一句话就给了我们选项A的信息.答案是A.B 选项与第一句话是互相矛盾的,排除；C选项与第二句话矛盾,D选项中最关键的词语postwar没有体现出来,即使最大努力的去infer,也是没有这方面的信息的. 第四篇49、一网解析：两个家伙的相似处.带着题干关键词,一目一行定位答案X围：第二段第三句话.答案是D.没有接受一点点music education,难得怪,人们是如此惊呼.50、一网解析：此题目我们可以充分利用我们宝贵的常识储备,从一个歌手,且是那么令人怀念的歌手,听到的绝对是"积极的〞,所以选择一褒义词.Disturbance是不可能的,选项B排除；thrill"太夸X了,夸X得几乎是一贬义词了〞,所以也可以不考虑.剩下两个选项,我们原文中猎取答案信息.第四段的第二句话：became relaxed and easygoing.所以与之匹配的选项是C.51、一网解析：此类题目比较少见,请你咨询阅读最后一自然段的最后一句话.最后一句话讲述了"文化also改变〞,所以接下来当然是继续"文化改变〞.答案是B. 第五篇52、一网解析：对于这个lefthanders international〔我们权且叫"左撇子国际〞吧,应该是一国际性的组织吧〕,他们成立"左撇子国际〞的目的,应该是不那么简单的.据此与之匹配的选项是B.认证答案：带着题干关键词"左撇子国际〞,一目一行定位答案X围：第一段最后一句话：他们不是另类〔strange〕,他们不是sick,与右撇子是一模一样的.所以他们昭示的"与右撇子平等〞equality,所以答案是B.53、一网解析：可以充分利用我们宝贵常识储备,handpreference"手的喜好〞,即左撇子与右撇子.是不可能在A与B就有了的,三岁时也是不可能的.答案是D.没有必要去认证答案了吧.54、一网解析：一目一行定位答案X围：第三段第二句话.答案是C.。

You are required to read the passages below carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1Directions : After reading the following passage, you will find five questions or unfinished statements ( No.46 to No. 50). For each question or statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are required to make the correct choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That' s the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents are not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parentscan have some quiet time and feel free to do something they' ve been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.46. Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because .A. they have to look after their kidsB. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money47.

All of the above.50. The passage mainly discusses .A. post-80s couples and their friendsB. post-80s couples and baby-poolingC. post-80s couples and their parentsD. kids and their grandparentsTask 2Directions : This task ( No. 51 to No. 55) is the same as Task l.It is a terrible illustration of man ' s weakness to nature ,and the tsunami(海啸) that struck the Japanese coast in March, 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-waming systems, public education programs and evacuation(疏散) strategies. Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international waming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early waming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it' s close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.51. The first paragraph tells us that .A. man can easily defeat the natureB. tsunamis take place only in JapanC. man' s ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD. the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible52.

Approaching tsunamis can possibly be picked up by sensors.D. An early warning system is effective when a tsunami is close by.Task 3Directions : This task( No. 56 to No. 60) the same as Task l.Tuangou , also called team buying or group buying, is a recently developed shopping strategy starting in China. Severalpeople connect over the Internet and agree to contact a seller of a specific product so that they can buy the same item as a group at a lower price. And the sellers benefit by selling many products at once.When people agree on group buying,individual members of the buying group can vouch for (替………担保)a particular seller’s quality to the rest of the group,therefore Tuangou helps of similar phenomena in Euroupe and North America.However,most of the group buying in these places is organized and done not by the team members themselves,but through online go-betweens.56.

Persons or companies that pass messages between sellers and buyersTask 4Directions: This task (No. 61 to No. 65) is the same as Task l.Facial expressions carry meanings that are partly determined by culture. For example, many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do, so teachers in the United States sometimes have trouble knowing whether their Japanese students understand and enjoy their lessons.Another example is the smile. As a common facial expression, it may show affection, convey politeness, or disguise(掩饰) true feelings. But in different cultures. smiles have different meanings. Many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even a suspicious behavior.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places, for American culture a smile is typically an expression of pleasure. Therefore some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don' t smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover emotional pain or embarrassment. Vietnamese people may tell the sad story of how they had to leave their country but end the story with a smile.61. The best title for this passage is .A. Russian CultureB.American CultureC. Facial FunctionsD.Facial Expressions and Culture62. American teachers sometimes have trouble understanding Japandse students in class because Japanese students .A. do not show their emotions as freely as American stydents doB. are similar to American students in showing emotionsc. only express their emotions when permittedD. do not know what to say63.

After reading it，you are required to answer each of the five questions( No. 66 to No. 70) in no more than three words. The answers are required to be written after the corresponding numbers on the Answer Sheet.。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1I’m a Chinese student studying in Canada. I have been a boarder with the Carsons for more than a year and a half.The Carsons live in their own house, which has four bedrooms including the one in the basement(底层) which I live in. Judy does all the work in the house and Andrew is responsible for the work in the garden. When they go out in the evening, they often ask me to look after their children.Judy’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Morris, lived in another city. Judy was their only child and naturally they doted on(宠爱) Judy’s children. They often sent the children presents.Last April Mr. Morris died. Now that Mrs. Morris was quite alone, I expected that Judy would want her to come and live with them. One day, Margaret told me grandma was coming to live with them and her daddy and mummy woul d want my room back. The news didn’t surprise me and the next day I went to Judy and asked her about it. I said I couldn’t think of living in their basement room any longer if it was needed for Mrs. Morris. Judy seemed surprised at first. Then she told me there was no need for me to move, for they hadn’t yet come to any decision about her mother coming to live with them. “Naturally I’m worried about my mother. She has been in poor health.” She smiled sadly and added. “To be honest, Andrew and my mother have never got on well. We’ll wait a bit and see what happens. Perhaps Mother will be all right living herself, or perhaps they will both change their minds.”That was six months ago. During this time I’ve heard that Mrs. Morris has had two illnesses and that her health has got worse. A nursing home was mentioned once but Mrs. Morris refused to go there. So up to now she’s still living alone and I’m still living in the basement room.61. What is the relationship between the speaker and the Carsons?A. He is a brother of Andrew Carson.B. He is a close friend of the Carsons.C. He is a student of Judy Carson.D. He is a student who pays to live and have meals at the Carsons’ house.62. Why did the speaker expect Mrs. Morris to come to live with her daughter?A. Because Mr. Morris was dead.B. Because Mrs. Morris suffered from illness.C. Because Mrs. Morris lived all by herself.D. Because of all the reasons mentioned in A, B and C.63. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Mrs. Morris was coming to live with the Carsons, so they asked the speaker to move.B. Judy had no brothers or sisters to look after her mother.C. Mrs. Morris loved her grandchildren very much.D. The Carsons once suggested that Mrs. Morris go to live in a nursing home.64. Why didn’t Mrs. Morris come to live with her daughter’s family?A. Because the speaker lived in the basement room and there was no other room for her tolive in.B. Because she did not have a good relationship with her son in law.C. Because she was in rather poor health and could not come.D. Because she did not want to leave her own house.65. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. My LandladyB. The BoarderC. Family Relationships in CanadaD. Nursing Homes and the AgedPassage 2Overhead bridges are found in many parts of Beijing, especially in places where traffic is very heavy and crossing the road is dangerous.The purpose of these bridges is to enable pedestrians to cross roads safely. Overhead bridges are used in very much the same way as a zebra crossing. They are more efficient although lessconvenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps. This is inconvenient especially to older people. When pedestrians use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traffic. However, when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government has built many overhead bridges to help pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time.The government of Beijing has spent a large amount of money on building these bridges. For their own safety, pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of risking their lives by dashing across the road. Old people, however, may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic.Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make it a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life.66. What is the advantage of overhead bridges mentioned in this passage?A. Taller trucks can pass under them.B. Pedestrians can climb up and have a view of the city.C. They are safer for pedestrians and can keep traffic moving at the same time.D. They are easier and more convenient for the pedestrians.67. Why were overhead bridges built in Beijing?A. Because they prevent traffic from being held up.B. Because they provide an easy way for the drivers to cross the road.C. Because they save money for the government.D. Because they save time for the pedestrians.68. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Overhead bridges are found in every part of Beijing.B. Overhead bridges are only found in the centre of Beijing.C. Overhead bridges are found in many parts of big cities in China.D. Overhead bridges are found in places where traffic is heavy.69. The underlined words “a zebra crossing” probably mean ______.A. a safe place across a road for pedestrians to walk across the roadB. a wild animal from Africa that looks like a horse with broad dark brown and white stripes on its bodyC. a safe place across a road for zebras to walk across the roadD. a safe place across a road for older people to rest in70. What is the writer’s attitude towards overhead bridges?A. It is inconvenient to older people to walk across the road.B. It is much safer for pedestrians though climbing up and down the steps may be a littledifficult.C. An overhead bridge is more beautiful than a zebra crossing.D. To build overhead bridges is the business of the government.Passage 3There was a time when，if a lady got into a crowded bus or train，a gentleman would immediately stand up and offer his seat. But now，things are different. Today a gentleman will probably look out of the window or if he feels a bit shy，hide behind his newspaper. Either way，the lady will have to stand until someone else gets off.You can’t entirely blame men for this change in manners，though. Gone are the days when women could be referred to as weakers without causing trouble. A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men，not just equality in jobs or education，but in social life. Hold a door open for some women and you are likely to get an angry lecture on treating women as inferiors(能力低下的人) unable to open doors for themselves. Take a girl out for meal and she’ll probably insist on paying her share of the bill. On second thoughts，that is perhaps not such a bad idea.It’s no wonder，then, that men have given up some ways of politeness and consideration which they used to show towards women. On the other hand，the man’s active politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by true consideration for the needs and feelings of women，so that men can see women as equal human beings，rather than as weakers or something that can be used to please men.71. Today, when a lady gets on a crowded bus or train, a gentleman would probably______ .A. stand up and offer her his seatB. read his newspaperC. look out of the windowD. not stand up and offer her his seat72. What men do towards women on a crowded bus or train today is______ .A. really badB. strange enoughC. not entirely wrongD. entirely wrong73. The new generation of women wants to be______ .A. treated not as the weaker sexB. treated as the weaker sexC. cared for on buses and trainsD. better treated than before74. According to the passage, which of the following is Not correct?A. Some women may get angry if you open the door for them.B. Girls don’t want you to pay for meal at all.C. Some women may criticize you if you show too much politeness to them.D. A girl may be unhappy if you insist on paying her share of the bill.75. From this passage, we know that______ .A. women need true consideration of their needs and feelingsB. men have given up some politeness they used to show to womenC. women often get angry if you’re polite to themD. women should stand in the bus or trainPassage 4Family” is of course an elastic word. But when British people say that their society is based on family life, they are thinking of “family” in its narrow, peculiarly European sense of mother, father and children living together alone in their own house as an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and independent family—hence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life.For both the man and the woman, marriage means leaving one’s parents and starting one’s own life. The man’s first duty will then be to his wife, and the wife’s to her husband. He will be entirely responsible for her financial support, and she for the running of the new home. Their ch ildren will be their common responsibility and theirs alone. Neither the wife’s parents nor the husband’s, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts or uncles, have any right to interfere with them—they are their own masters.Readers of novels like Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times marriage among wealthy families was arranged by the girl’s parents, that is, it was the parents’ duty to find a suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillfulencouragement to lead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until that time, the girl was protected and maintained in the parents’ home, and the financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in their giving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry(嫁妆). It is very different today. Most girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially independent before their marriage. This has had two results: a girl chooses her own husband, and she gets no dowry.76. What does th e author mean by “‘Family’ is of course an elastic word”?A. Different families have different ways of life.B. Different definitions could be given to the word.C. Different nations have different families.D. Different times produce different families.77. For an English family, the husband’s duty is______ .A. supporting the family while the wife is financialB. defending the family while the wife is running the homeC. financial while the wife is running the homeD. independent while the wife is dependent78. Everything is decided in a family______ .A. by the coupleB. with the help of their parentsC. by brothers and sistersD. with the help of aunts and uncles79. What is TRUE concerning the book Pride and Prejudice?A. It is the best book on marriage.B. It is a handbook of marriage.C. It gives quite some ideas of English social life in the past.D. It provides a lot of information of former time wealthy families.80. With regard to marriage in Britain, present day girls differ from former time girls in______ .A. the right to marryB. more parental supportC. choosing husbandsD. social positionPart Ⅳ Translation (1.5×10 points)Directions：There are 10 sentences in this section.

He grew up in the banks of the Mississippi River and used the pen name of “Mark Twain”. The two novels brought him his greatest fame: Toni Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. Another book, Life on the Mississippi, told of his adventures on the river boats of the period.It was during the Civil War that Mark Tw ain’s life as a writer started. At that time he was working as a newspaper man in Nevada and California. His short story, The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County, was an immediate success and his new life began.In 1870, Mark Twain married Olivia Langdon. He had fallen in love with his wife even before he met her. His wife had a greet influence on Twain’s later books.Mark Twain was also a very successful lecturer. His travels around the country giving talks on different kinds of subjects helped make him famous and increased the sale of his books.Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn are considered Twain’s best works. They are marked by humor and satire （讽刺文学，讽刺）and provide his readers with an excellent picture of his time. His last book was completed in 1909, one year before his death.

However, in primitive societies a system of barter was used. Barter was a system of direct exchange of good. Somebody could exchange a sheep, for example, for anything in the market place that he or she considered to be of equal value. Barter, however, was a very unsatisfactory system of exchange, and various money systems developed based on goods that the members of a society recognized as having value. Cattle, grain, teeth, shells, salt, andtobacco had all been used. Precious metals gradually took over because, when made into coins, they were portable, durable, recognizable, and divisible into larger and smaller units of value.A coin is a piece of metal, usually disc-shaped, which bears lettering, designs or numbers showing its value. Until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, coins were given monetary worth based on the exact amount of metal contained in them, but most modern coins are based on face value—the value that the governments choose to give them, which doesn’t show the actual metal content. Coins have been made of gold, silver, copper, plastic and in China even from tealeaves. Most governments now issue paper m oney in the form of bills, which are really “promises to pay”. Paper money is obviously easier to handle and much more convenient in the modern world. Checks and credit cards are being used increasingly, and it is possible to imagine a world where “money” in the form of coins and paper currency will no longer be used. Even today, in the United States, many places, especially filling stations will not accept cash at night for security reasons.56. “Barter” (Line 2, Paragraph l) here means.A. exchanging goods for moneyB. exchanging goods for goodsC. exchanging a sheep for anything in the marketD. exchanging money for goods57. Why were precious metals gradually used for making coins?A. Because they were durable and portable.B. Because they were recognizable.C. Because they were divisible.D. All of the above.58. Coins were given value according to the exact amount of metals contained in them .A. before the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesB. after the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesC. during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesD. between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries59. “Promises to pay” (Line 6, Paragraph 2) means.A. possibilities to payB. necessities to payC. obligations to payD. opportunities to pay60. A world without any money in the form of coins and paper is .A. suitableB. possibleC. necessaryD. avoidableTask 4 (3 points each; 15 points in all)Directions: This task is the same as Task l (No.61 through No.65).In most lectures, several main ideas are presented. These are the concepts（思想）the lecturer wants the students to remember. Often the lecturer has a general idea that serves as an “umbrella” covering the other main concepts. The students' job, then, is to pick out the main concepts, including the “umbrella” idea.Lecturers usually begin with an introduction. Sometimes the main concepts and the “umbrella” idea are briefly presented in the introduction; often they are not. Next comes the body of the lecture. It is here that the several main concepts are alwayspresented. The final part of a lecture, the conclusion, is traditionally a summary of the main concepts. This is also the place where the “umbrella” idea can most easily be repeated, restated, or even introduced for the first time.When a lecture is well organized, with a clear-cut beginning, middle and end, the main ideas are usually easy to pick out. When a lecture is not well organized, getting the gist of what is being said is quite dif ficult. Some lecturers are “long-winded”, taking a long time to come to the point.Others ramble on (杂乱地漫谈) and never seem to come to the point at all.61. While listening to a lecture, the students are expected to remember .62. A lecture is usually made up of three parts- , and according to this passage.63. Sometimes, both and of a lecture are put forward in the introduction. 64．A lecture with a neatly-planned , and is said to be a well organized lecture.65.

It is like bringing the world to your mailbox.Fiona, a member of ,says,''I love swapping postcards!Although it seems quite time-consuming to pick one ,write it and post it ,it is the amusement of receiving a flash of sunshine or humor that makes it worthwhile.''51.The underlined word ''Swapping''in Paragraph 1 means ____ .A.exchangingB.designingC.collectingD.writing52.The first paragraph tells us that ____ .A.postcards are simple and beautifulB.Swapping postcards is a hobby for all peopleC.Swapping postcards can keep pen friends in contactD.Those who swap postcards have lost interest in the real word53.Which of the following is true of ?A.Its members should pay for registrationB.It was created for a particular purposeC.Its members can share different hobbiesD.It was started by a group of citizens54.When will your name be added to the list of people to receive postcards on ?A.After one confirms the reception of your postcard.B.After you e-mail your first postcard.C.After you register on the websiteD.After one receives your address55.In Fiona's eyes,swapping postcards is ____ .A.time-savingbor-savingC.worthwhileD.humorousPassage 3Listening is an extremely complex communicative activity. In order to have a better understanding, to anticipate what is coming is very important.An effective listener should continuously develop more or less specific readiness for what will come next. If a listener hears what he has expected, it will be much easier for him to receive the information.But if what he hears is totally out of his expectation,he will fail to get the message.The skill to anticipate what is coming in listening comprehension depends largely on the listener's familiarity with the theme（主题）of the message.It also depends on the listener's knowledge of the speaker as well as the situation.Obviously, when we listen to something that we already have some information about, it is generally much easier for us to take in the new information .Therefore,pre-listening preparation seems to play an important role in increasing our comprehension .Before actual listening ,we could perhaps first give some thought to the topic ,discuss it with others ,and then read some related material and do some vocabulary work. If we could make ourselves fully prepared for the coming talks or lectures,we are more likely to become effective listeners.Of course,readiness beforehand is not at all enough .Active thinking must take place all the way through .In fact ,we should always try to think ahead of the speaker.56.The passage is most possible taken from ____ .A.a novelB.a textbookC.a news reportD.a fashion magazine57.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.How to think actively in listening comprehension.B.How to develop specific readiness before listening.C.The skills in anticipating in listening comprehension.D.The importance of anticipating in listening comprehension.58.The skill to anticipate in listening comprehension depends largely on ____ .A.the listener's emotionB.the difficulty of the messageC.the listener's communicative skillsD.The listener's familiarity with the topic59.In order to anticipate ,the first thing to do before actual listening may be ____ .A.do some vocabulary workB.think about the topicC.read some related materialD.discuss the topic with others60.What is the author's attitude towards anticipating in listening comprehension?A.Neutral.B.Positive.C.Negative.D.Critical.Passage 4When men get stick，they act like babies ，say women .

What’s the reason for the different responses? The results of a survey suggest that women are too tough; they think heart problem are simply not a big deal . When Steven Erickson and his colleagues asked 348 men and 142 women who had been admitted to the hospital for a heart attack about their symptoms and medication (用药情况)，they found that even though the women had more symptoms and were taking more medicine they rated their disease as being no more severe than the men did .For more on women and heart disease ,go to .61.The underlined expression "the fairer sex" in Paragraph 1 refers to ____ .A. menB. babiesC. womenD.researchers62.
