Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take the fact of friendship for granted, we often don't clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only very few- for example; the average among students is about 6per person. Moreover, a great many relationships come under the blanket ter "friendship". In all cases, two people like each other and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for their mutual interest vary enormously. Initially, much depends on how people meet, and on favorable first impressions. As we get to know people, we take into account things like age, race, physical attractiveness economic and social status, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of prime importance, it is more difficult to relate to people when there is a marked difference in age and background. On a more immediate level, we are sensitive to actual behavior, facial expression, and tone of voice.Friends will stand closer together and will spend more time looking at each other than mere acquaintances. Smiles and soft voices also express friendliness, and it is because they may transmit the wrong signals that shy people often have difficulty in making friends. A friendly gaze with the wrong facial expression can turn into an aggressive stare, and nervousness may be misread as hostility. People who do not look one in the eye are mistrusted when, in fact, they simply lack confidence. Some relationships thrive on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, to have attitudes and interests in common- they often talk about "being on the same wavelength". It generally takes time to reach this point; sometimes people "click" immediately. The more intimately involved people become, the more they rely on one another. People want to do friends favors and hate to let them down. Equally, friends have to learn to make allowances for each other, to put up with irritating habits, and to tolerate differences of opinion. Imagine going camping with someone you occasionally meet for a drink! In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies, no rituals to strengthen the association between two people. But the mutual support and understanding that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful bond, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class or race.1 The average student has about six friends AA.

You find a telephone number in the phone book, dial it and then forget it. This is your short-term memory. It lasts less than 30 seconds. However you don’t look in the phone book for your best friend’s number. You know it. This is a long-term memory. Your long-term memory has everything you remember.Why do you forget something? What is the reason? You did not learn it in the beginning. This is the major reason for forgetting. But you can remember better. Here are some ideas.1. Move information from your short-term memory to your long-term memory. Practice the information. Spend time on it.2. Be sure that you understand the information.3. Do only one thing at a time.

Do not have more than seven parts. Learn one part and stop for a few minutes. Don’t try to learn all parts at the same time.6. Make a picture in your mind.

The rivers which had brought down the soil were steep near the mountains, but near the coast they were wide and rolling, deep enough for the small boats of the time to sail formiles. It was far enough south for the summers to be hot, so that the growing season lasted from six month in Maryland to about nice in South Carolina. If you add these ideal farming conditions to the early discovery of a New World crop which was always in demand in the Old world, you will readily understand why the Southern Colonies became a farming group.Tobacco! This was the breath of life in Virginia, the oldest of the Southern Colonies. Men talked, thought, and bought in tobacco. It was a farming country, and other crop were also grown, but while theSoutherner might have competition in the production of fruits and grains(wheat and rice and barley大麦)，in tobacco he was a master. Tobacco! It was a magic word. Everything revolved around its production and it had a tremendous effect upon life in the South.59.“A New world crop” i n the last sentence of the 1st paragraph most probably refers to_____A)wheat B)rice C)tobacco D)barley60.

A few minutes before six o’clock, they decided to leave. They walked to their car, and got in. They expected a quiet, peaceful ride home. Mr. Lestar was about to start the car when a gun-man jumped up from the back seat. “Drive me to Paris!” he demanded.“All right,”Mr. Lestar replied. “I’ll drive you anywhere you want to go. But first let my wife out of the car.”After Jean was safely out of the car, Mr. Lestar started the motor slowly, but his mind was racing. Unarmed and 81 years old, he knew he needed help. Where were the police? “Just my luck,”he thought. “If I were speeding, there would be a police car on every corner.” Then the car sped forward and Mr. Lestar began driving like a madman, running red lights, and driving the wrong way on one-way streets but not one police officer saw him.Obviously, Mr. Lestar’s plan was not working. He got a new plan ashe remembered that Lille Police Station was nearby. “All right,” he thought. “If I can’t bring the police to my car, I’ll bring my car to the police.” Then he drove his car crashing through the doors and stopped in the courtyard of the policestation. Mr. Lestar yelled, “Help!” Officers from the police station came running and quickly held the man.64.When Mr. Lestar saw a man pointing a gun at him, his first responsewas that ________. A)he worried about his daughterB)he worried about his wifeC)he tried to drive the car to the police stationD)he agreed to do whatever the man told him to65.In order to ________, Mr. Lestar began driving like a madman.A)get to the police station as soon as possibleB)run away from the man with the gunC)get the police’s attentionD)distract the man with the gun66.Mr. Lestar’s first attempt to get the attention of the police failed because ________.A)the was starting and driving slowlyB)the man with the gun was very strongC)the man with the gun knew his planD)there was no police car in sight67.It seems that ________.A)Mr. Lestar was in Lille more than one timeB)Mr. Lestar was in Lille for the first timeC)Mr. Lestart had been experienced in his policeman career.D)Mr. Lestar knew why the gun-man wanted to go to Paris68.All the following are true EXCEPT _________.A)The police are most stupid of allB)Mr. Lestar is cleverer than the man with the gunC)Mr. Lestar is lucky for escaping from the gun-manD)Mind is sometimes more powerful than musclePassage FourQuestions 48 to 52 are based on the following passage.For a small island Great Britain has a great length of coastline, and there is no place in the whole country which is more than three hours' journey by car from the sea. The coast is very varied, with perhaps the best parts in the south-west of England and in the west of Scotland. The coast of Devon and Cornwall, in the south-west, is much indented(向内陆凹进)，with many sheltered bays and fine rough points of land extending out into the sea. With so large a population on so small an island the best parts of the coast are inevitably rather crowded during the summer ,but much of Devon and Cornwall is still unspoiled, with many picturesque(风景如画的)fishing villages. The other parts of the coast are less dramatic, being partly flat and partly steep.In the parts nearest to great centers of population big seaside-resort(海滨胜地) towns have grown up . Four of these--Brighton, Bournemouth and Southend in the south, and Blackpool in the north-west--have become important towns themselves, with more than 150,000 permanent residents each, and there are other big seaside towns whose inhabitants include many retired people .Some of these places are remarkable for the great number of visitors they receive, some to stay for a week or a fortnight ,some to spend a few hours on the before returning home in the evening.69. It will take one___to travel to any place of Great Britain by car from any part of the coast.A)a week B) a fortnightC) 3 hours' less D) more than 3 hours70.According to the first paragraph, it is more possible for a visitor tofind a scenic spot along the coast of England in____.A) the north-east B) the south-westC) the north-west D) the south-east71.Some parts of the coast in Great Britain are crowded during thesummer probably because they___.A)have a great number of inhabitants B) attract a large number of visitorsC) are suitable for fishing D) extended out into the sea72.The coast of Devon and Cornwall can be best described as___.A)flat all the way to the sea B) steep with bare rocky hills C) sheltered all the year round D) dramatic with beautiful scenery73.How long do the visitors stay in a seaside resort?A)From several hours to two weeks B) Usually less than a dayC) From a few days to two months D) Seldom more than a weekTranslation from English into ChinesePart IV: Translation (10%)in this part, there are four items which you should translate into Chinese ,each item consisting of one sentence .Some of these sentences are taken from the reading passages you have just read in Part Ⅲof the Test Paper .You are allowed 15 minutes to do the translation. You can refer back to the passages so as to identify their meaning in the context. Write your translation on the Translation Sheet in Test Paper Two. 74. I’m sorry to trouble you, but I wonder if we can have a word with you sometime.A)对不起，我想占你一点时间，问个单词。

With the advent of e-learning platforms, students now have access to a wealth of educational resources that can be accessed at any time and from any place. This shift has made education more accessible and flexible, allowing learners to study at their own pace and in their own style.However, this convenience has also introduced a number of challenges. The digital divide, which refers to the gap between those who have access to digital technology and those who do not, is becoming more pronounced. In addition, there is a growing concern about the impact of excessive screen time on students’ physical and mental health.1.The passage primarily discusses the positive impacts of digital technology on education.2.The passage argues that digital technology has made education more convenient and flexible.3.The digital divide is mentioned as a concern, but it is not specified asa problem that the passage believes can be solved.4.The passage indicates that excessive screen time may have negative effects on students’ health.5.The passage suggests that e-learning platforms have improved the quality of education for all students.Answers:1.False2.True3.False4.True5.FalseSecond Question: Reading JudgmentRead the following passage and judge whether the statements below are True or False based on the information given in the text.Passage:In recent years, the concept of lifelong learning has gained significant traction across various sectors of society. Lifelong learning refers to the continuous acquisition of knowledge and skills throughout one’s life. It is not confined to traditional educational institutions but encompasses a widearray of learning activities that can take place both inside and outside formal settings. The importance of lifelong learning cannot be overstated, especially in today’s rapidly changing world where new technologies and methodologies emerge almost daily. For individuals, lifelong learning is crucial for personal development and career advancement. It enables people to stay relevant in their professional fields and adapt to the evolving demands of the job market. Moreover, it fosters personal growth and enhances social engagement.

)a few months in advance, the Columbia University researchers say their method can predict large EL Nino events up to two years in advance. That would be good news for governments, farmers and others seeking to plan for the droughts and heavy rainfall that EL Nino can produce in various parts of the world. Using a computer, the researchers matched sea-surface temperatures to later EL Nino occurrences(发生)between 1980 and 2000 and were then able to anticipate EL Nino events dating back to 1857, using prior sea-surface temperatures. The results were reported in the latest issue of the journal Nature. The researchers say their method is not perfect, but Bryan C. Weare, a meteorologist(气象学家)at the University of California, Davis, who was not involved in the work, said, “It suggests EL Nino is indeed predictable. ““This will probably convince others to search around more for even better methods, “ said Weare. He added that the new method “makes it possible to predict EL Nino at long lead(提前的)times”. Other models also use sea-surface temperatures, but they have not looked as far back because they need other data, which is only available for recent decades, Weare said. The ability to predict the warming and cooling of the Pacific is of immense importance. The 1997 EL Nino, for example, caused an estimated $20 billion in damage world wide, offset(抵消)by beneficial effects in other areas, said David Anderson, of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts in Reading, England. The 1877 EL Nino, meanwhile, coincided(同时发生)with a failure of the Indian monsoon and a famine that killed perhaps 40 million in India and China, prompting the development of seasonal forecasting, Anderson said. When EL Nino hit in 1991 and 1997, 200 million people were affected by flooding in China alone, according to a 2002 United Nations report. While predicting smaller EL Nino events remains tricky(复杂的), the ability to predict larger ones should be increased to at least a year if the new method is confirmed. EL Nino tends to develop between April and June and reaches its peak between December and February. The warming tends to last between 9 and 12 months and occurs every two to seven years. The new forecasting method does not predict any major EL Nino events in the next two years, although a weak warming toward the end of this year is possible.1．The method used by the Columbia University researchers can predict EL Nino a few months in advance.A．真B．假C．Not Given正确答案：B解析：利用题干句中的特征词Columbia University researchers作为线索，发现相关句“…theColumbia University researchers say their method can predict large EL Nino events up to two years inadvance．”题干句说“提前几个月”，而原文说“最远能提前两年”，由此可见题干句的内容中有与原文不一致的地方，“a few months in advance”是一个从其他句子中借来的干扰信息，因此判断题干句不正确。

Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of online education, and give your own opinion on whether it is a positive or n egative change.”Example:In recent years, the advent of online education has revolutionized the waywe acquire knowledge. On the one hand, online education offers numerous advantages. Firstly, it provides flexibility in terms of time and location. Students can attend classes from the comfort of their homes, which is particularly beneficial for those with busy schedules. Moreover, online platforms often offer a wide range of resources and interactive tools that can enhance the learning experience.However, there are also some drawbacks to online education. One major concern is the lack of face-to-face interaction, which can lead to feelings of isolation and reduced social skills. Additionally, self-discipline and time management are crucial for online learners, as they need to stay motivated and focused without the guidance of a traditional classroom environment.In my opinion, online education is a positive change. While it does have its drawbacks, the flexibility and accessibility it offers far outweigh the negatives. With the right mindset and support, online education can empower individuals to pursue their dreams and contribute to societal progress.Analysis:The essay presents a clear and concise argument about the advantages and disadvantages of online education. The writer begins by acknowledging the rapid development of technology and its impact on education. The advantages of online education are highlighted first, such as flexibility and access to a wide range of resources. The disadvantages are then mentioned, such as the lack of face-to-face interaction and the need for self-discipline. The writer concludesby expressing their own opinion, emphasizing the positive aspects of online education while acknowledging its challenges.The essay follows a logical structure, with clear introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion.

Answer: 1二、阅读理解（共10分）Passage:Hospital length of stay (LOS) has been a significant indicator in assessing the quality of healthcare. It is defined as the time a patient spends in a hospital from admission to discharge. The impact of LOS on both patients’ recovery and healthcare systems is multifaceted. Most societies aim to minimize LOS to ensure cost-effectiveness and improve overall patient experience.According to the World Health Organization (WHO), optimizing hospital LOS is crucial to balancing patient care with resource allocation. A decrease in LOS is particularly important for chronic patients who often have longer stays due to the complexity of their conditions. As such, reducing LOS for these patients can lead to better health outcomes and reduced financial burden on the healthcare system.Modern healthcare technologies have played a pivotal role in reducing hospital LOS. Advanced diagnostic tools allow for faster and more accurate identification of patients’ conditions, leading to timely interventions.

Thanks to the advancements in online education, students can now choose courses from a wide variety of institutions around the world. The convenience of online learning allows individuals to study at their own pace and on their own schedule. Online courses also offerflexi bility in terms of study location, which means that it’s no longer necessary to be physically present in a classroom. This mode of education is particularly beneficial for those with busy schedules or living in remote areas. Moreover, online learning often provides a more personalized experience, as students can access their materials and communicate with instructors and peers through online platforms at any time.

One of the most significant impacts of the internet is on higher education. Online courses have become increasingly popular, allowing students to learn from the comfort of their own homes, at their own pace, and from a diverse range of instructors worldwide. This change has raised several debates in educational circles, with some arguing in favor of the benefits and others concerned about potential drawbacks.Many enthusiasts of online education point out that it offers flexibility, allowing students to juggle other commitments more easily. For instance, working professionals can now attend college-level courses while continuing their jobs. Moreover, online courses often feature interactive elements such as discussion forums and video conferencing, which can enhance the learning experience.However, critics argue that the absence of face-to-face interaction can lead to feelings of isolation and less effective learning. They also note that the quality of online instruction cannot always be guaranteed, as there is no standardized quality control in place.The following passage is a response to the above debate.Question:Read the following paragraph and then answer the question by choosing the best answer (A), (B), (C), (D), or (E).While some argue that online education provides a more convenient and accessible way of learning, others contend that it lacks the personal touch necessary for effective teaching and learning. This discrepancy in opinion canbe attributed to several factors. First, the personalized approach to learning in traditional settings, such as the classroom, enables students to receive individualized attention and support from instructors. Second, the collaborative nature of face-to-face interactions fosters a sense of community and creates a conducive environment for learning. Lastly, the lack of personal interaction in online environments can result in a reduced sense of ownership over the learning process.What is the primary purpose of the paragraph?(A)To support the benefits of online education(B)To criticize the drawbacks of traditional education(C)To present arguments for and against online education(D)To emphasize the importance of individual attention in learning(E)To analyze the reasons behind the discrepancy in opinions about online educationAnswer: (E) To analyze the reasons behind the discrepancy in opinions about online education三、概况段落大意和补全句子（共10分）第一题Passage:The rise of online learning platforms has transformed the landscape of higher education.

But when the time came to sell the cows, there were no buyers out on the range-they had to be taken into market. In the early days it was a hard job getting the cows to the markets where they were killed. It was no good killing them on the ranges because there were no lorries or railways to carry the meat. The cattle had to be driven along in a large herd to the towns where they were needed. The places with lots of people who needed meat were often hundreds or thousands of miles away from the ranges. The cattle were rounded up, and those to be sent away were kept together. On the trail the leader was the trail boss, who told the men which jobs to do. He decided where they should camp at night. Hundreds or maybe thousands of cattle were taken on the trail. The herd was not made to move too quickly-if they rushed along, they would get thin and not be worth much at market. Some cowboys rode beside them, some in front and others at the back. Cows that moved too slowly were hurried along. Cows which tried to get away were made to go back to the herd.11．The cowboys used to live______.A．in big citiesB．near the market placeC．in the United StatesD．on ranges正确答案：D12．It was believed that on huge open spaces grassland,A．There were more cows than any other animalsB．cows could find much grass and waterC．cows could sell at a reasonable priceD．cowboys would find it easy to look after their cattle.正确答案：B13．Which of the following is not true according to the second paragraph?A．cows were normally killed early in the morningB．cows were needed where there was a big populationC．cows had to be driven many miles away to the townsD．it was a hard job to get the cattle to the market正确答案：A14．The trail boss______.A．was appointed by the governmentB．rode and others walked aroundC．decided almost everything on the trailD．usually rode in the front of a large herd正确答案：C15．It seems that______.A．The cowboys enjoyed their life on the rangeB．fat cows sell faster than thin cows at marketC．cowboys were too young to do their jobs wellD．the herd was made to move along neither too quickly nor too slowly 正确答案：DWord Spelling16．s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ vt. & vi.牺牲，献出n．牺牲品正确答案：sacrifice17．h_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ adj.好客的，热情的正确答案：hospitable18．i_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ adj.低效的，效率低的正确答案：inefficient19．c_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ n.对抗，冲突正确答案：confrontation20．f_ _ _ _ _ _ n.流利正确答案：fluency21．e_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ n.环境正确答案：environment22．t_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ n.容忍，宽容正确答案：tolerance23．f_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ vt.迷住，强烈地吸引住正确答案：fascinate24．a_ _ _ _ vt.使烦恼，打扰正确答案：annoy25．o_ _ _ _ _ _ _ adj.东方的正确答案：orientalWord From26．They were married in strict______(private).正确答案：privacy27．His______(determine)to retire surprised us all.正确答案：determination28．It is______(doubt)the best French film this year.正确答案：undoubtedly29．A foreign______(address)in China will be annoyed if he is greeted with “Where are you going?”正确答案：addressee30．Teachers shouldn’t be______(mechanical)minded.正确答案：mechanically31．Existing methods of production are expensive and______(efficient).正确答案：inefficient32．To avoid______(confuse), the twins never wear the same clothes.正确答案：confusion33．I don’t______(whole)believe what he has said.正确答案：wholly34．______(fluent)should be given enough attention in foreign language teaching.正确答案：Fluency35．A______(psychology)is someone who studies the human mind, human emotions and human behavior.正确答案：psychologist。

Passage OneYou remember things every day, but how do you do it? You find a telephone number in the phone book, dial it and then forget it. This is your short-term memory. It lasts less than 30 seconds. However you don’t look in the phone book for your best friend’s number. You know it. This is a long-term memory. Your long-term memory has everything you remember.Why do you forget something? What is the reason? You did not learn it in the beginning. This is the major reason for forgetting. But you can remember better. Here are some ideas.1. Move information from your short-term memory to your long-term memory. Practice the information. Spend time on it.2. Be sure that you understand the information.3. Do only one thing at a time. Study in a quiet place. You can’t listen to music and memorize at the same time.4. Try to connect the new information with something you already know.5. Divide the information into parts. Do not have more than seven parts. Learn one part and stop for a few minutes. Don’t try to learn all parts at the same time.6. Make a picture in your mind. For example, when you learn the word SOFA, make a picture in your mind of this furniture. Remember what it looks like.7. Try to relax when you study. Enjoy it.54.This passage mainly tells us how to ______.A)keep short-term memoryB)remember telephone numbersC)remember things betterD)practice information55.You often forget a telephone number quickly because it is only kept in ______.A)your long-term memoryB)your mid-term memoryC)your fresh memoryD)your short-term memory56.Forgetting easily happens because of ______.A)failing to understand the information in the beginningB)failing to practice the information in the beginningC)spending much time on learningD)dividing the information into parts57.To make sure that your long-term memory keeps what you remember, you need _____.

The rivers which had brought down the soil were steep near the mountains, but near the coast they were wide and rolling, deep enough for the small boats of the time to sail for miles. It was far enough south for the summers to be hot, so that the growing season lasted from six month in Maryland to about nice in South Carolina. If you add these ideal farming conditions to the early discovery of a New World crop which was always in demand in the Old world, you will readily understand why the Southern Colonies became a farming group.Tobacco! This was the breath of life in Virginia, the oldest of the Southern Colonies. Men talked, thought, and bought in tobacco. It was a farming country, and other crop were also grown, but while the Southerner might have competition in the production of fruits and grains(wheat and rice and barley大麦)，in tobacco he was a master. Tobacco! It was a magic word. Everything revolved around its production and it had a tremendous effect upon life in the South.59.“A New world crop” in the last sentence of the 1st paragraph most probably refers to_____A)wheat B)rice C)tobacco D)barley60. According to this passage ideal farming conditions in the Southern Colonies mainly consisted of_______A)a long coast and high mountainsB)plentiful rain and the long growing seasonC)hot summers and steep mountain riversD)plentiful clouds and deep soil61.Which of the following was NOT a factor that makes the Southern Colonies become a farming group?A)Competition in producing fruits and grains.B)The early discovery of a New World cropC)Favorable geographical location.D)Ideal farming conditions.62.Tobacco was said to be “a magic word” because_____A)it brought a big profit to the Southern ColoniesB)tobacco was in steady demand in the Old WorldC)the Southern had competition in its productionD)the Southerner’s life depended on it to a great extent63.The phrase ”revolved around” can be replaced by______A)was only interested in C)moved in a circle aroundB)was closely connected with D)gradually developed intoPassage TwoOne summer afternoon Jean and Lestar, an elderly couple, visited their daughter at her home in Lille, France. A few minutes before six o’clock, they decided to leave. They walked to their car, and got in. They expected a quiet, peaceful ride home. Mr. Lestar was about to start the car when a gun-man jumped up from the back seat. “Drive me to Paris!” he demanded.“All right,”Mr. Lestar replied. “I’ll drive you anywhere you want to go. But first let my wife out of the car.”After Jean was safely out of the car, Mr. Lestar started the motor slowly, but his mind was racing. Unarmed and 81 years old, he knew he needed help. Where were the police? “Just my luck,”he thought. “If I were speeding, there would be a police car on every corner.” Then the car sped forward and Mr. Lestar began driving like a madman, running red lights, and driving the wrong way on one-way streets but not one police officer saw him.Obviously, Mr. Lestar’s plan was not working. He got a new plan as he remembered that Lille Police Station was nearby. “All right,” he thought. “If I can’t bring the police to my car, I’ll bring my car to the police.” Then he drove his car crashing through the doors and stopped in the courtyard of the police station. Mr. Lestar yelled, “Help!” Officers from the police station came running and quickly held the man.64.When Mr. Lestar saw a man pointing a gun at him, his first response was that________. A)he worried about his daughterB)he worried about his wifeC)he tried to drive the car to the police stationD)he agreed to do whatever the man told him to65.In order to ________, Mr. Lestar began driving like a madman.A)get to the police station as soon as possibleB)run away from the man with the gunC)get the police’s attentionD)distract the man with the gun66.Mr. Lestar’s first attempt to get the attention of the police failed because ________.A)the was starting and driving slowlyB)the man with the gun was very strongC)the man with the gun knew his planD)there was no police car in sight67.It seems that ________.A)Mr. Lestar was in Lille more than one timeB)Mr. Lestar was in Lille for the first timeC)Mr. Lestart had been experienced in his policeman career.D)Mr. Lestar knew why the gun-man wanted to go to Paris68.All the following are true EXCEPT _________.A)The police are most stupid of allB)Mr. Lestar is cleverer than the man with the gunC)Mr. Lestar is lucky for escaping from the gun-manD)Mind is sometimes more powerful than musclePassage FourQuestions 48 to 52 are based on the following passage.For a small island Great Britain has a great length of coastline, and there is no place in the whole country which is more than three hours' journey by car from the sea. The coast is very varied, with perhaps the best parts in the south-west of England and in the west of Scotland. The coast of Devon and Cornwall, in the south-west, is much indented(向内陆凹进)，with many sheltered bays and fine rough points of land extending out into the sea. With so large a population on so small an island the best parts of the coast are inevitably rather crowded during the summer ,but much of Devon and Cornwall is still unspoiled, with many picturesque(风景如画的)fishing villages. The other parts of the coast are less dramatic, being partly flat and partly steep.In the parts nearest to great centers of population big seaside-resort(海滨胜地) towns have grown up . Four of these--Brighton, Bournemouth and Southend in the south, and Blackpool in the north-west--have become important towns themselves, with more than 150,000 permanent residents each, and there are other big seaside towns whose inhabitants include many retired people .Some of these places are remarkable for the great number of visitors they receive, some to stay for a week or a fortnight ,some to spend a few hours on the before returning home in the evening.69. It will take one___to travel to any place of Great Britain by car from any part of the coast.A) a week B) a fortnightC) 3 hours' less D) more than 3 hours70.According to the first paragraph, it is more possible for a visitor to find a scenicspot along the coast of England in____.A) the north-east B) the south-westC) the north-west D) the south-east71.Some parts of the coast in Great Britain are crowded during the summer probably because they___.A) have a great number of inhabitants B) attract a large number of visitorsC) are suitable for fishing D) extended out into the sea72.The coast of Devon and Cornwall can be best described as___.A) flat all the way to the sea B) steep with bare rocky hillsC) sheltered all the year round D) dramatic with beautiful scenery73.How long do the visitors stay in a seaside resort?A)From several hours to two weeks B) Usually less than a dayC) From a few days to two months D) Seldom more than a weekTranslation from English into ChinesePart IV: Translation (10%)in this part, there are four items which you should translate into Chinese ,each item consisting of one sentence .Some of these sentences are taken from the reading passages you have just read in Part Ⅲof the Test Paper .You are allowed 15 minutes to do the translation.

1回答1-10题React to DifficultiesIn life you will constantly be facing challenges, times when it’s tough to feel confident about what will happen in the future. Times like these will have different degrees of intensity and duration. The greater the degree and the longer the duration, the greater the fear and sense of uncertaintywill be.As many of you know, the economy seems to be in a downward spiral right now. Today alone, trillions of dollars are being wiped out in a matter of days. People’s retirement funds are being cut in double digit percentages. Many are facing job losses in a time when they need income the most.In times like these,it’s a real challenge to have any optimism and confidence that things are going to be better in the near future.I read an article where a financial expert stated if he went all in with his money today, he’ll be better off six months from today since markets will always rebound, butadded he will have many restless nights and will beconstantly wondering "what if this time it’s different?"It’s sometimes difficult to stay positive and motivatedto work on your goals especially when all around you thereare people so pessimistic about, well, everything in general. People are cutting back on everything. Conversations aroundthe dinner table and water cooler are increasingly about the state of the economy.Ok, enough negative talk. If you notice, you have some people reacting negatively while others are acting positively. Here’s what makes the difference. You get what you focus on. You can either think about how bad you have it and feel likea victim,or you can use these challenges as a reason to stepup and grow from them.Yes, things look like economy will get worse. The reality, however, really depends on how you look at it and react tothis situation.Like any challenge in life it’s not what actuallyhappens that will determine the outcome it’s what you decide to do about it.In life people are always troubled with challenges.（）A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given2The fear and sense of uncertainty will be independent of the degree and the duration of difficult times. （）A.TrueC.Not Given3Because of the current economic situations, trillions of dollars are being wiped out in a few days. （）A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given4People’s retirement funds are being cut in 20%. （）A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given5During the economic recession, it’s hard for people to have confidence in the future. （）A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given6People are reducing their expenses to save money.（）A.TrueC.Not Giveia7People’s views about the future vary from person to persorn （）A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given8Difficulties are bound to make people become victims. （）A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given9The writer mainly talks about the national economy. （）A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given10The key to dealing with challenges lies in your attitudes towardswhat has happened. （）A.True第二部分：阅读选择(第11～15题，每题2分。

Why Is the Native Language Learnt So Well?
How does it happen that children learn their mother tongue so well? When we compare them with adults learning a foreign language, we often find this interesting fact. A little child without knowledge or experience often succeeds in a complete mastery of the language. A grown-up person with fully developed mental powers, in most cases, may end up with a faulty and inexact command. What accounts for this difference?
Despite other explanations, the real answer in my opinion lies partly in the child himself, partly in the behavior of the people around him. In the first place, the time of learning the mother tongue is the most favorable of all, namely, the first years of life. A child hears it spoken from morning till night and, what is more important, always in its genuine (纯正的) form, with the right pronunciation, right intonation, and right use of words and right structure. He drinks in all the words and expressions which come to him in a fresh, ever bubbling spring. There is no resistance: there is perfect assimilation (同化).
Then the child has, as it were, private lessons all the year round, while an adult language student has each week a limited number of hours which he generally shaves with others. The child has another advantage: he hears the language in all possible situations, always accompanied by the right kind of gestures and facial expressions. Here there is nothing unnatural, as is often found in language lessons in schools, when one talks about ice and snow in June or scorching (炎热的) heat in January. And what a child hears is generally what immediately interests him. Again and again, when his attempts at speech are successful, his desires are understood and fulfilled.
Finally, though a child’s “teachers” may not have been trained in language teaching, their relations with him are always close and personal. They take great pains to make their lessons easy.
