Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections:After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)The year was 1932. Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single-engined airplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter (高度表) failed and she didn’t know how high she (25) ______ (fly). At night, and in a storm, a pilot was in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged into the sea.Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames coming from the engine. With all the difficulties, Amelia Earhart wasn’t sure if she (26) ______ reach land. There was nothing to do but keep (27) ______ (go).In the end, Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland. It was with the great courage (28) ______ she made the safe landing. And for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe. When she returned to the United States, she (29) ______ (honor) by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous.What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman (30) ______ (fly) the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty-six minutes.In the years that followed, Amelia Earhart made several flights across the United States, and on each occasion she set a new record for flying time and was (31) _____ (skillful) than her previous flight. Amelia Earhart made these flights to show that women had a place in aviation (航空) and that air travel was useful. Her passion for flight lasted in her remaining life (32) ______ she mysteriously disappeared from public in the year 1937.(B)It has become acceptable for people to say that women work less than men and therefore deserve less! It may have been true in the past when women were expected to stay at home and look after children, but women have changed over the years. They have “come out”! Gone (33) ______ (be) the days when they toiled (辛苦) the kitchen stove all day long; they are now aware of their needs and are willing to fight for them.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. attractionB. benefitC. enthusiasticallyD. commandE. satisfyF. undoubtedlyG. approvalH. treasuredI. viewedJ. developedK. considerablePublic image doesn’t make money directly, nor is it anything visible. However, excellent public image is such an important thing that it is 41 desired by every company, enterprise, institution, etc. Public image refers to how a company is 42 by its customers, suppliers, and stockholders (股东), by the financial community, by the communities where it operates, and by federal and local governments. Public image is controllable to 43 extent, just as the product, price, place, and promotional efforts are.A firm’s public image plays a vital role in the 44 of the firm and its products to employees, customers, and to such outsiders as stockholders, suppliers, creditors(贷款方), government officials, as well as different special groups. With some things it is impossible to 45 all the different publics: for example, a new highly automated plant may meet the 46 of creditors and stockholders. However, it will 47 find resistance from employees who see their jobs threatened. On the other hand, high quality products and service standards should bring almost complete approval, while low quality products and false claims would be widely looked down upon.A firm’s public image, if it is good, should be 48 . It is a valuable strength that usually is built up over a long and satisfying relationship of a firm with publics. If a firm has49 a quality image, this is not easily imitated by competitors. Such an image may enablea firm to charge higher prices, to win the best distributors and dealers, to attract the best employees, to expect the most favorable creditor relationships and lowest borrowing costs. It should also allow the firm’s stock to 50 higher price-earnings ratio(比例) than other firms in the same industry with such a good reputation and public image.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Just as the stock market rises and falls in response to what people are willing to put their money behind, we have inside ourselves an inner economy that rises and falls in response to our beliefs about what is possible. Sometimes the degree to which we are willing to 51 our belief systems determines the success of our inner economy. For example, imagine that your family of origin had a belief that musical talent was not something they 52 . As a member of that group, you would likely 53 that same belief about yourself. As a result,even if you had a great desire to create music, you might be 54 to really get behind yourself. Because you might fear that your 55 would not pay off. Even if you had the courage to follow your passion, your inner belief that you are not 56 would probably stop your trying. And that would be a major 57 to invest your energy in your dream.On the other hand, belief isn’t anything 58 . If you found a way to 59 that negative belief, a great flood of energy would pour forth, greatly increasing the possibility of your success. How much energy we are willing to invest in the various ideas and dreams is like the money people are, or are not, willing to invest in the various products available for trade on the stock market. And in both cases, 60 plays a key role in determining how willing we are to get behind something. One way to open up the possibility for greater success in our inner economies is to understand that belief is not the reliable 61 we sometimes think. There are other more reliable things of success that we can put our 62 in, such as passion, feeling, and sense. Some of the most successful investors in the stock market are the ones that go against the grain, trusting their sense over the 63 opinion held by ordinary people about what will work.In the same way, we can learn to trust our heart’s desires and our sense to guide us, 64 any beliefs that stand in the way of our ability to fully invest in ourselves. As we take out energy from limiting ideas about what is possible, we 65 the resources that have the power to make our inner economy prosper.51. A. simplify B. challenge C. eliminate D. maintain52. A. possessed B. trusted C. objected D. missed53. A. reject B. preserve C. deny D. share54. A. willing B. sorry C. reluctant D. ready55 A. success B. knowledge C. profession D. investment56. A. devoted B. talented C. concerned D. interested57. A. obstacle B. excuse C. chance D. principle58. A. important B. fixed C. changeable D. stimulating59. A. enhance B. reserve C. release D. follow60. A. energy B. hobby C. expense D. belief61. A. guide B. ability C. goal D. policy62. A. aim B. faith C. task D. dream63. A. unacceptable B. strange C. unbelievable D. common64. A. questioning B. understanding C. interpreting D. believing65. A. stick to B. lead to C. free up D. leave outSection BDirections: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The vast jungles of the Amazon rainforest are home to tribes (部落) mostly isolated from the outside world, whose way of life, largely unchanged for hundreds of years, is now increasingly threatened by modern civilization.Now, scientists discover they can monitor these “uncontacted tribes” using satellites, which would allow inexpensive and safe tracking of these tribes in order to protect them from outside threats.In order to help preserve these uncontacted Indians, researchers need accurate estimates of their populations. One way to collect this data involves flying over their villages, but such over-flights are both expensive and could fill these native peoples with fear. Another strategy involves meeting individuals on the ground, but among other risks, scientists could accidentally spread disease to members of the tribes.Instead, scientists investigated whether satellite images could monitor uncontacted tribes. The result was inspiring. They confirmed their locations and measured the sizes of their village, houses and gardens. “We can find isolated villages wi th remote sensing and study them over time.” Walker told Live Science. “We can ask: Are they growing? Do they move?”Surprisingly, based on the sizes of the houses and villages, the scientists find the population densities of these isolated villages are about 10 times greater, on average, than other villages of native Brazilian peoples. This may be due to the fact that they have to live closer together because they are not as good at clearing the forest, since they lack modern devices like chainsaws and tractors, the researchers said. The tribes may also be afraid of spreading out due to fear of being attacked by outsiders, Walker said.The researchers now plan to focus on 29 more isolated villages to “look at their ecology— that is, distance from rivers and roads—and use this to model where else we can find more isolated villages,” Walker said.66. Scientists don’t want to meet the Indians on the ground due to the fear that ______.A. they can’t get accurate dataB. they could pass disease to the IndiansC. they will be attacked by the IndiansD. they will catch disease from the Indians67. According to the passage, which of the following about the Indian tribes is NOT true?A. They lack modern tools to cut forests.B. Their life styles remain unchanged.C. They live closer together for defense.D. They are contacting the outside world.68. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. More isolated tribes are yet to be discovered.B. Scientists are able to find 29 Amazon tribes in total.C. It’s easy for scientists to find isolated villages.D. More roads should be built for the tribes.69. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. The Disappearing of the Ancient Amazon Tribes.B. Discovery of Indian Tribes in Remote Mountains.C. The Threatening of Modern Civilization to Tribes.D. Research of Isolated Tribes with Modern Devices.(B)The Zebra Finch: An Owner’s Guide to a HappyHealthy PetThe zebra finch, a native of Australia, is a populardomestic pet in the United States. The bird has manyattributes (特性) which allow it to be kept at home, thoughthere are also a few negative aspects. The attributes arenest-building, breeding and a lively attitude. The potentialnegatives are over-breeding and the wildness of the birds.One of the main attributes of zebra finches is their ability to breed. They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world. Once you have two birds, male and female, you will soon have six, as they breed quite easily and have strong babies, usually four at a time. An added attribute is their ability to build their own nests. You can place branch in their place along with some kind of structure, and they will create a nest on their own. It’s very pleasant to see the ways males and females divide some labors and share others, and the babies grow up quickly. Overall, zebra finches are energetic birds, and they can make every place where they live delightful lives.On the negative side, they will breed and in-breed. Often, in-breeding does little harm and does not cause genetic defects (缺陷), as happens more often in other species. However, no one can tolerate just any population level. One has to either remove their nests altogether, which basically removes their personal living place, or check for eggs regularly once a week (the gestation period is 13 days, so even a one-week neglect can lead to births). Eggs can be replaced with false plastic eggs, and this prevents females from laying too many. If they do lay too many, they will die from mineral loss. Since these birds do not tame well, removing eggs can be an unpleasant process of repeatedly invading their personal space.Overall, it is unfortunate that zebra finches are inexpensive birds due to their high level of breeding. They require considerable care to live happy lives. The best care-takers are true avian fanciers — people who have appropriate space for the nests and enough time to allow them to nest-build and breed without over-breeding.70. What is the passage mainly about?A. Zebra finches over-breed by nature and its consequent ill effects.B. Only people who love birds can take care of Zebra finches.C. Domestic zebra finches require a lot of care to live happy lives.D. Zebra finches never become completely tame.71. By saying “They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world”, the writer means that bothrabbits and Zebra finches ______.A. have good ability to breedB. are difficult to be raisedC. live delightful livesD. share responsibilities72. In paragraph 3, the word “gestation” probably means ______.A. the period when eggs remain freshB. the time when finches build up their nest and lay eggsC. the time required for the parents to create a nestD. the time required for baby birds to develop and to be born73. According to the passage, attributes of domestic zebra finches include ______.A. their rareness and easiness to be tamedB. their nest-building, sharing of responsibilities and delightful personalitiesC. their in-breeding, which does not cause as much genetic harm as in other speciesD. the fact that they are from Australia and have difficulty in adapting themselves(C)“Does my smile look big in this?” Future fitting-room mirrors in clothing stores could subtly adjust your reflection to make you look ─and hence feel ─happier, encouraging you to like what you see.That’s the idea behind the Emotion Evoking System developed by Shigeo Yoshida and colleagues at the University of Tokyo in Japan. The system can manipulate, or in other word, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face.The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones ─that laughter comes before happiness, rather than the other way around ─is a well-established idea.The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a computer system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a web-camera image of his or her face ─as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered with software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown (皱眉).Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited (招募) 21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was complete the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy.Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers’ emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented with the altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely.The system could be used to manipulate consumers’impressions of products, say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothing-store fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on.“It’s certainly an interesting area,” says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. “Attempting to make slight differences to these and ensuring that the reflected image looks believable would be much more challenging,” he says.Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. “You could argue that if it makes people happy what harm is it doing?” says Creed. “But I can imagine that many people may feel manipulated, uncomfortabl e and cheated if they found out.”74. What’s the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System?A. To see whether one’s feeling can be unconsciously affected.B. To see whether one’s facial expressions can be altered.C. To see whether laughter comes before happiness.D. To replace the mirrors in future clothing-store fitting rooms.75. What can we learn about the web-camera image in the study?A. It recorded the volunteers’ performance in the task.B. It gave the volunteers a false image.C. It attempted to make the volunteers feel happier.D. It beautified the volunteers’ appearance in the mirror.76. What does Creed mention as a limitation of the technology?A. It only changes the areas around the mouth and the eyes.B. It only works in clothing stores.C. It only makes subtle changes to people’s expressions.D. It only deals with a limited number of facial expressions.77. What does Creed’s comment on the moral issues with this technology imply?A. Nothing is more important than happiness.B. Technology is unable to manipulate people.C. People should make their decisions independently.D. People should neglect the harm of the technology.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.When e-mail first came into general use about twenty years ago, there was a lot of talk about the arrival of the paperless office. However, it seems that e-mail has yet to revolutionize office communication. According to communications analyst Richard Metcalf, some offices have actually seen an increase in paper as a result of e-mail. “Information in the form of e-mail messages now floods our computer screens. These messages can be sent so quickly that memos tend to be distributed in the hundreds. For those secretaries whose bosses ask them to print out all their e-mails and leave them in their in-trays, this means using up a great deal of paper every month,” Metcalf says.Metcalf has found that because some e-mails get lost in cyberspace, important documents are increasingly likely to be asked by clients and colleagues to send all important documents both by e-mail and by fax. This highlights a further potential problem with e-mail in today’s offices ─it is taking up time rather than saving it. “With e-mail, communication is much easier, but there is also more room for misunderstandings,” says psychologist Dr David Lewis. Generally, much less care is taken with e-mails than with letters or faxes and the sender will probably print the document and reread it before putting it in an envelope or sending it by fax.More worrying is still the increasing misuse of e-mail for sending “flame-mail”─inappropriate e-mail messages. Recent research in several companies suggests that aggressive communications like this are on the increase. E-mail has become the perfect medium for conveying workplace dissatisfaction because it is so instant.E-mail can also be a problem in other ways. Staffs all too often make the mistake of thinking that the contents of the e-mail, like things said over the phone, are private and not permanent. But it is not only possible for an employer to read all your e-mails, it is also perfectly legal. E-mail messages can be traced back to their origin for a period of at least two years, so you might want to rethink e-mailing your dissatisfaction about your boss to your friends. The advice is to keep personal e-mails out of the office.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 12 WORDS)78. The promise of paperless office has not come true in many offices mainly because manysecretaries are asked to _____________.79. Why has e-mailing taken up time rather than saved it?80. There is an increasing concern that e-mails are misused by some employees to express_____________.81. It is advised that employees should not use company e-mails as a way of ___________.第II 卷(共47分)I.

In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off (使改变方向)the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed where he was. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as英语试卷第5页(共9 页)warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he coul d — he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this sn owstorm if he hadn’t done so. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. In each programme of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Grylls hear d about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.69.Nicholas one Sunday afternoon when he went skiing.A) caught a cold B) broke his skisC) hurt his eyes D) got lost70.Nicholas to keep himself warm in the terrible snowstorm.A) found a warm shelter B) lighted some dry branchesC) kept on skiing D) built a snow cave71.On Tuesday, Nicholas .A) returned to his shelter safely B) was saved by a searcherC) got stuck in the snow D) stayed where he was72.Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he .A) watched Grylls’ TV program regularly B) created some tips for survivalC) was hard working and intelligent D) did right in dangerous situations73.In the passage, the underlined word ‘abandoned’ most probably means .A) left behind B) hidden carefullyC) followed secretly D) hurt badly74.The best title for the passage may be .A) Skiing Can Be Dangerous B) Grylls’ Survival ShowC) The Boy Made It D) A Heavy SnowstormB.Choose the best answer and complete the passage ( 选择最恰当的选项完成短文)(12 分)英语试卷第6页(共10 页)Omega Teen Camp is an experience like no other!

She immediately 17 to teach the eagle how to hop, as she was sure that hopping was the key to 18 , but every time she advised the eagle to hop, he just said, “There is no need. You are19 with hopping, but I can fly. ““Stop this silly talking of flying!” screamed the grasshopper. “Flying is20 in your imagination. “The next day, some of the grasshoppers went to talk to the eagle. “How is it that you don’t know how to hop, yet you still talk of flying? It 21 our teacher’s orders. ““Hopping is useful, but when you can fly, it is no longer 22 .” said the eagle.“Tell us more, “ said the grasshoppers.The eagle began telling them what the world 23 he grass fields was like. It was a world that included mountains, rivers and oceans(海洋).Then the eagle took one 24 grasshopper in his powerful talon()K) to the sky. The grasshopper could see the mountains, rivers and oceans that the eagle had 25 .After the eagle landed, he saw a spark (闪光) in the grasshopper’s eyes.

A. imagined B. created C. changed D. describedANo one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting(天气预报).For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. That many people feel their joints(关节) hurt is a sign of wet weather. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come.Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.26. Which of the following can be used here to replace(取代) the underlined phrase “on theway”?A. awayB. goneC. disappearingD. coming27. When you see the stars twinkle clearly at night, the weather will be_________.A. warmB. rainyC. clear and fineD. cold28. Which of the following signs can tell the weather will probably be rainy?A. A rainbow appears in the morning.B. Some birds fly high.C. The stars twinkle clearly at night.D. Fogs appear in the morning just above a river.BDear Amy,I couldn’t read your two e-mails until today because my computer was broken. I’m sorry tohear about your problem, but I’m glad you’re feeling better and are recovering(康复). I’m surprised that in China someone’s liver(肝脏) matched yours! This is really a moving story–a stranger donated part of his liver to a girl he doesn’t even know!You’re right. We shouldn’t care too much about our weight. I’m happy you stopped taking those weight-loss pills. From your photo I can see you are now looking very well in the hospital. To keep slim is important, especially for an actress, but nothing is more important than health. Your doctor’s advice is indeed very good– exercise for at least half an hour every day and eat lots of fruit and vegetables.It’s not only in your country. It’s the same here with us Chin ese– many people are always going on diets or taking weight-loss pills, which are often dangerous. But in fact, some of them are not overweight(超重) at all. I hope these people can learn something from your story. Hope you will leave hospital as soon as possible.LoveXXX29. Who does “a girl” in the letter refer to?A. The writer of the letter.B. Amy.C. A stranger.D. An unknown person.30. Which country is the writer of the letter from?A. America.B. China.C. Germany.D. England.31. Which of the following is NOT right?A. Amy has probably just received an operation on liver.B. Amy is now probably in hospital recovering.C. A Chinese man donated part of his liver to Amy.D. Amy is now still going on diets or taking weight-loss pills.CWhen I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to be point out my shortcomings(缺点). Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn’t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with(忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark thepoints that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.I brought the list back to my dad.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)The year was 1932. Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single-engined airplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter (高度表) failed and she didn’t know how high she (25) ______ (fly). At night, and in a storm, a pilot was in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged into the sea.Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames coming from the engine. With all the difficulties, Amelia Earhart wasn’t sure if she (26) ______ reach land. There was nothing to do but keep (27) ______ (go).In the end, Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland. It was with the great courage (28) ______ she made the safe landing. And for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe. When she returned to the United States, she (29) ______ (honor) by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous.What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman (30) ______ (fly) the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty-six minutes.In the years that followed, Amelia Earhart made several flights across the United States, and on each occasion she set a new record for flying time and was (31) _____ (skillful) than herprevious flight. Amelia Earhart made these flights to show that women had a place in aviation (航空) and that air travel was useful. Her passion for flight lasted in her remaining life (32) ______ she mysteriously disappeared from public in the year 1937.(B)It has become acceptable for people to say that women work less than men and therefore deserve less! It may have been true in the past when women were expected to stay at home and look after children, but women have changed over the years. They have “come out”! Gone (33) ______ (be) the days when they toiled (辛苦) the kitchen stove all day long; they are now aware of their needs and are willing to fight for them.

Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Public image doesn’t make money directly, nor is it anything visible. However, excellent public image is such an important thing that it is 41 desired by every company, enterprise, institution, etc. Public image refers to how a company is 42 by its customers, suppliers, and stockholders (股东), by the financial community, by the communities where it operates, and by federal and local governments. Public image is controllable to 43extent, just as the product, price, place, and promotional efforts are.A firm’s public image plays a vital role in the 44 of the firm and its products to employees, customers, and to such outsiders as stockholders, suppliers, creditors (贷款方), government officials, as well as different special groups. With some things it is impossible to 45 all the different publics: for example, a new highly automated plant may meet the 46 of creditors and stockholders. However, it will 47 find resistance from employees who see their jobs threatened. On the other hand, high quality products and service standards should bring almost complete approval, while low quality products and false claims would be widely looked down upon.A firm’s public image, if it is good, should be 48 . It is a valuable strength that usually is built up over a long and satisfying relationship of a firm with publics. If a firm has49 a quality image, this is not easily imitated by competitors. Such an image may enable a firm to charge higher prices, to win the best distributors and dealers, to attract the best employees, to expect the most favorable creditor relationships and lowest borrowing costs. It should also allow the firm’s stock to 50 higher price-earnings ratio (比例) than other firms in the same industry with such a good reputation and public image.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Just as the stock market rises and falls in response to what people are willing to put their money behind, we have inside ourselves an inner economy that rises and falls in response to our beliefs about what is possible. Sometimes the degree to which we are willing to 51our belief systems determines the success of our inner economy. For example, imagine that yourfamily of origin had a belief that musical talent was not something they 52 . As a member of that group, you would likely 53 that same belief about yourself. As a result, even if you had a great desire to create music, you might be 54 to really get behind yourself. Because you might fear that your 55 would not pay off. Even if you had the courage to follow your passion, your inner belief that you are not 56 would probably stop your trying. And that would be a major 57 to invest your energy in your dream.On the other hand, belief isn’t anything 58 . If you found a way to 59 that negative belief, a great flood of energy would pour forth, greatly increasing the possibility of your success. How much energy we are willing to invest in the various ideas and dreams is like the money people are, or are not, willing to invest in the various products available for trade on the stock market. And in both cases, 60 plays a key role in determining how willing we are to get behind something. One way to open up the possibility for greater success in our inner economies is to understand that belief is not the reliable 61 we sometimes think. There are other more reliable things of success that we can put our 62 in, such as passion, feeling, and sense. Some of the most successful investors in the stock market are the ones that go against the grain, trusting their sense over the 63 opinion held by ordinary people about what will work.In the same way, we can learn to trust our heart’s desires and our sense to guide us,64 any beliefs that stand in the way of our ability to fully invest in ourselves. As we take out energy from limiting ideas about what is possible, we 65 the resources that have the power to make our inner economy prosper.51. A. simplify B. challenge C. eliminate D. maintain52.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The vast jungles of the Amazon rainforest are home to tribes (部落) mostly isolated from the outside world, whose way of life, largely unchanged for hundreds of years, is now increasingly threatened by modern civilization.Now, scientists discover they can monitor these “uncontacted tribes” using satellites, which would allow inexpensive and safe tracking of these tribes in order to protect them from outside threats.In order to help preserve these uncontacted Indians, researchers need accurate estimates of their populations. One way to collect this data involves flying over their villages, but such over-flights are both expensive and could fill these native peoples with fear. Another strategy involves meeting individuals on the ground, but among other risks, scientists could accidentally spread disease to members of the tribes.Instead, scientists investigated whether satellite images could monitor uncontacted tribes. The result was inspiring. They confirmed their locations and measured the sizes of their village, houses and gardens. “We can find isolated villages with remote sensing and study them over time.” Walker told Live Science. “We can ask: Are they growing? Do they move?”Surprisingly, based on the sizes of the houses and villages, the scientists find the population densities of these isolated villages are about 10 times greater, on average, than other villages of native Brazilian peoples. This may be due to the fact that they have to live closer together becausethey are not as good at clearing the forest, since they lack modern devices like chainsaws and tractors, the researchers said. The tribes may also be afraid of spreading out due to fear of being attacked by outsiders, Walker said.The researchers now plan to focus on 29 more isolated villages to “look at their ecology—that is, distance from rivers and roads—and use this to model where else we can find more isolated villages,” Walker said.66. Scientists don’t want to meet the Indians on the ground due to the fear that ______.A. they can’t get accurate dataB. they could pass disease to the IndiansC. they will be attacked by the IndiansD. they will catch disease from the Indians67. According to the passage, which of the following about the Indian tribes is NOT true?A. They lack modern tools to cut forests.B. Their life styles remain unchanged.C. They live closer together for defense.D. They are contacting the outside world.68. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. More isolated tribes are yet to be discovered.B. Scientists are able to find 29 Amazon tribes in total.C. It’s easy for scientists to find isolated villages.D. More roads should be built for the tribes.69. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. The Disappearing of the Ancient Amazon Tribes.B. Discovery of Indian Tribes in Remote Mountains.C. The Threatening of Modern Civilization to Tribes.D. Research of Isolated Tribes with Modern Devices.(B)The Zebra Finch: An Owner’s Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet The zebra finch, a native of Australia, is a popular domestic pet in the United States. The bird has many attributes (特性) which allow it to be kept at home, though there are also a few negative aspects. The attributes are nest-building, breeding and a lively attitude. The potential negatives are over-breeding and the wildness of the birds.One of the main attributes of zebra finches is their ability to breed. They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world. Once you have two birds, male and female, you will soon have six, as they breed quite easily and have strong babies, usually four at a time. An added attribute is their ability to build their own nests. You can place branch in their place along with some kind of structure, and they will create a nest on their own. It’s very pleasant to see the ways males and females divide some labors and share others, and the babies grow up quickly. Overall, zebra finches are energetic birds, and they can make every place where they live delightful lives.On the negative side, they will breed and in-breed. Often, in-breeding does little harm and does not cause genetic defects (缺陷), as happens more often in other species. However, no one can tolerate just any population level. One has to either remove their nests altogether, which basically removes their personal living place, or check for eggs regularly once a week (the gestation period is 13 days, so even a one-week neglect can lead to births). Eggs can be replaced with false plastic eggs, and this prevents females from laying too many. If they do lay too many, they will die from mineral loss. Since these birds do not tame well, removing eggs can be an unpleasant process of repeatedly invading their personal space.Overall, it is unfortunate that zebra finches are inexpensive birds due to their high level of breeding. They require considerable care to live happy lives. The best care-takers are true avian fanciers —people who have appropriate space for the nests and enough time to allow them to nest-build and breed without over-breeding.70. What is the passage mainly about?A. Zebra finches over-breed by nature and its consequent ill effects.B. Only people who love birds can take care of Zebra finches.C. Domestic zebra finches require a lot of care to live happy lives.D. Zebra finches never become completely tame.71. By saying “They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world”, the writer means that bothrabbits and Zebra finches ______.A. have good ability to breedB. are difficult to be raisedC. live delightful livesD. share responsibilities72. In paragraph 3, the word “gestation” probably means ______.A. the period when eggs remain freshB. the time when finches build up their nest and lay eggsC. the time required for the parents to create a nestD. the time required for baby birds to develop and to be born73. According to the passage, attributes of domestic zebra finches include ______.A. their rareness and easiness to be tamedB. their nest-building, sharing of responsibilities and delightful personalitiesC. their in-breeding, which does not cause as much genetic harm as in other speciesD. the fact that they are from Australia and have difficulty in adapting themselves(C)“Does my smile look big in this?” Future fitting-room mirrors in clothing stores could subtly adjust your reflection to make you look ─ and hence feel ─ happier, encouraging you to like what you see.That’s the idea behind the Emotion Evoking System developed by Shigeo Yoshida and colleagues at the University of Tokyo in Japan. The system can manipulate, or in other word, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face.The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones ─ that laughter comes before happiness, rather than the other way around ─ is a well-established idea.The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a computer system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a web-camera image of his or her face ─as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered with software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown (皱眉).Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited (招募) 21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was complete the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy.Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers’ emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented with the altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely. The system could be used to manipulate consumers’impressions of products, say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothing-store fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on.“It’s certainly an interesting area,” says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. “Attempting to make slight differences to these and ensuring that the reflected image looks believable would be much more challenging,” he says.Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. “You could argue that if it makes people happy what harm is it doing?” says Creed. “But I can imagine that many people may feel manipulated, uncomfortable and cheated if they found out.”74. What’s the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System?A. To see whether one’s feeling can be unconsciously affected.B. To see whether one’s facial expressions can be altered.C. To see whether laughter comes before happiness.D. To replace the mirrors in future clothing-store fitting rooms.75. What can we learn about the web-camera image in the study?A. It recorded the volunteers’ performance in the task.B. It gave the volunteers a false image.C. It attempted to make the volunteers feel happier.D. It beautified the volunteers’ appearance in the mirror.76. What does Creed mention as a limitation of the technology?A. It only changes the areas around the mouth and the eyes.B. It only works in clothing stores.C. It only makes subtle changes to people’s expressions.D. It only deals with a limited number of facial expressions.77. What does Creed’s comment on the moral issues with this technology imply?A. Nothing is more important than happiness.B. Technology is unable to manipulate people.C. People should make their decisions independently.D. People should neglect the harm of the technology.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.When e-mail first came into general use about twenty years ago, there was a lot of talk about the arrival of the paperless office. However, it seems that e-mail has yet to revolutionize office communication. According to communications analyst Richard Metcalf, some offices have actually seen an increase in paper as a result of e-mail. “Information in the form of e-mail messages now floods our computer screens. These messages can be sent so quickly that memos tend to be distributed in the hundreds. For those secretaries whose bosses ask them to print out alltheir e-mails and leave them in their in-trays, this means using up a great deal of paper every month,” Metcalf says.Metcalf has found that because some e-mails get lost in cyberspace, important documents are increasingly likely to be asked by clients and colleagues to send all important documents both by e-mail and by fax. This highlights a further potential problem with e-mail in today’s offices ─ it is taking up time rather than saving it. “With e-mail, communication is much easier, but there is also more room for misunderstandings,” says psychologist Dr David Lewis. Generally, much less care is taken with e-mails than with letters or faxes and the sender will probably print the document and reread it before putting it in an envelope or sending it by fax.More worrying is still the increasing misuse of e-mail for sending “flame-mail”─inappropriate e-mail messages. Recent research in several companies suggests that aggressive communications like this are on the increase. E-mail has become the perfect medium for conveying workplace dissatisfaction because it is so instant.E-mail can also be a problem in other ways. Staffs all too often make the mistake of thinking that the contents of the e-mail, like things said over the phone, are private and not permanent. But it is not only possible for an employer to read all your e-mails, it is also perfectly legal. E-mail messages can be traced back to their origin for a period of at least two years, so you might want to rethink e-mailing your dissatisfaction about your boss to your friends. The advice is to keep personal e-mails out of the office.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 12 WORDS)78. The promise of paperless office has not come true in many offices mainly because manysecretaries are asked to _____________.79. Why has e-mailing taken up time rather than saved it?80. There is an increasing concern that e-mails are misused by some employees to express_____________.81. It is advised that employees should not use company e-mails as a way of ___________.第II 卷(共47分)I.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)The year was 1932. Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single-engined airplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter (高度表) failed and she didn’t know how high she (25) ______ (fly). At night, and in a storm, a pilot was in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged into the sea.Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames coming from the engine. With all the difficulties, Amelia Earhart wasn’t sure if she (26) ______ reach land. There was nothing to do but keep (27) ______ (go).In the end, Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland. It was with the great courage (28) ______ she made the safe landing. And for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe. When she returned to the United States, she (29) ______ (honor) by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous.What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman (30) ______ (fly) the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty-six minutes.In the years that followed, Amelia Earhart made several flights across the United States, and on each occasion she set a new record for flying time and was (31) _____ (skillful) than her previous flight. Amelia Earhart made these flights to show that women had a place in aviation (航空) and that air travel was useful. Her passion for flight lasted in her remaining life (32) ______ she mysteriously disappeared from public in the year 1937.(B)It has become acceptable for people to say that women work less than men and therefore deserve less! It may have been true in the past when women were expected to stay at home and look after children, but women have changed over the years. They have “come out”! Gone (33) ______ (be) the days when they toiled (辛苦) the kitchen stove all day long; they are now aware of their needs and are willing to fight for them.

She still believes in the power and value of a family unit and she holds it in high esteem (尊重).Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Public image doesn’t make money directly, nor is it anything visible. However, excellent public image is such an important thing that it is 41 desired by every company, enterprise, institution, etc. Public image refers to how a company is 42 by its customers, suppliers, and stockholders (股东), by the financial community, by the communities where it operates, and by federal and local governments. Public image is controllable to 43extent, just as the product, price, place, and promotional efforts are.A firm’s public image plays a vital role in the 44 of the firm and its products to employees, customers, and to such outsiders as stockholders, suppliers, creditors(贷款方), government officials, as well as different special groups. With some things it is impossible to 45 all the different publics: for example, a new highly automated plant may meet the 46 of creditors and stockholders. However, it will 47 find resistance from employees who see their jobs threatened. On the other hand, high quality products and service standards should bring almost complete approval, while low quality products and false claims would be widely looked down upon.A firm’s public image, if it is good, should be 48 . It is a valuable strength that usually is built up over a long and satisfying relationship of a firm with publics. If a firm has49 a quality image, this is not easily imitated by competitors. Such an image may enable a firm to charge higher prices, to win the best distributors and dealers, to attract the best employees, to expect the most favorable creditor relationships and lowest borrowing costs. It should also allow the firm’s stock to 50 higher price-earnings ratio (比例) than other firms in the same industry with such a good reputation and public image.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Just as the stock market rises and falls in response to what people are willing to put their money behind, we have inside ourselves an inner economy that rises and falls in response to our beliefs about what is possible. Sometimes the degree to which we are willing to 51our belief systems determines the success of our inner economy. For example, imagine that your family of origin had a belief that musical talent was not something they 52 . As a member of that group, you would likely 53 that same belief about yourself. As a result, even if you had a great desire to create music, you might be 54 to really get behind yourself. Because you might fear that your 55 would not pay off. Even if you had the courage to follow yourpassion, your inner belief that you are not 56 would probably stop your trying. And that would be a major 57 to invest your energy in your dream.On the other hand, belief isn’t anything 58 . If you found a way to 59 that negative belief, a great flood of energy would pour forth, greatly increasing the possibility of your success. How much energy we are willing to invest in the various ideas and dreams is like the money people are, or are not, willing to invest in the various products available for trade on the stock market. And in both cases, 60 plays a key role in determining how willing we are to get behind something. One way to open up the possibility for greater success in our inner economies is to understand that belief is not the reliable 61 we sometimes think. There are other more reliable things of success that we can put our 62 in, such as passion, feeling, and sense. Some of the most successful investors in the stock market are the ones that go against the grain, trusting their sense over the 63 opinion held by ordinary people about what will work.In the same way, we can learn to tr ust our heart’s desires and our sense to guide us,64 any beliefs that stand in the way of our ability to fully invest in ourselves. As we take out energy from limiting ideas about what is possible, we 65 the resources that have the power to make our inner economy prosper.51. A. simplify B. challenge C. eliminate D. maintain52. A. possessed B. trusted C. objected D. missed53. A. reject B. preserve C. deny D. share54. A. willing B. sorry C. reluctant D. ready55 A. success B. knowledge C. profession D. investment56. A. devoted B. talented C. concerned D. interested57. A. obstacle B. excuse C. chance D. principle58. A. important B. fixed C. changeable D. stimulating59. A. enhance B. reserve C. release D. follow60. A. energy B. hobby C. expense D. belief61. A. guide B. ability C. goal D. policy62. A. aim B. faith C. task D. dream63. A. unacceptable B. strange C. unbelievable D. common64. A. questioning B. understanding C. interpreting D. believing65. A. stick to B. lead to C. free up D. leave outSection BDirections: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The vast jungles of the Amazon rainforest are home to tribes (部落) mostly isolated from the outside world, whose way of life, largely unchanged for hundreds of years, is now increasingly threatened by modern civilization.Now, scientists discover they can monitor these “uncontacted tribes” using satellites, which would allow inexpensive and safe tracking of these tribes in order to protect them from outside threats.In order to help preserve these uncontacted Indians, researchers need accurate estimates of their populations. One way to collect this data involves flying over their villages, but such over-flights are both expensive and could fill these native peoples with fear. Another strategy involves meeting individuals on the ground, but among other risks, scientists could accidentally spread disease to members of the tribes.Instead, scientists investigated whether satellite images could monitor uncontacted tribes. The result was inspiring. They confirmed their locations and measured the sizes of their village, houses and gardens. “We can find isolated villages with remote sensing and study them over time.” Walker told Live Science. “We can ask: Are they growing? Do they move?”Surprisingly, based on the sizes of the houses and villages, the scientists find the population densities of these isolated villages are about 10 times greater, on average, than other villages of native Brazilian peoples. This may be due to the fact that they have to live closer together because they are not as good at clearing the forest, since they lack modern devices like chainsaws and tractors, the researchers said. The tribes may also be afraid of spreading out due to fear of being attacked by outsiders, Walker said.The researchers now plan to focus on 29 more isolated villages to “look at their ecology—that is, distance from rivers and roads—and use this to model where else we can find more isolated villages,” Walker said.66. Scientists don’t want to meet the Indians on the ground due to the fear that ______.A. they can’t get accurate dataB. they could pass disease to the IndiansC. they will be attacked by the IndiansD. they will catch disease from the Indians67. According to the passage, which of the following about the Indian tribes is NOT true?A. They lack modern tools to cut forests.B. Their life styles remain unchanged.C. They live closer together for defense.D. They are contacting the outside world.68. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. More isolated tribes are yet to be discovered.B. Scientists are able to find 29 Amazon tribes in total.C. It’s easy for scientists to find isolated villages.D. More roads should be built for the tribes.69. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. The Disappearing of the Ancient Amazon Tribes.B. Discovery of Indian Tribes in Remote Mountains.C. The Threatening of Modern Civilization to Tribes.D. Research of Isolated Tribes with Modern Devices.(B)The Zebra Finch: An Owner’s Guide to a HappyHealthy PetThe zebra finch, a native of Australia, is a popular domesticpet in the United States. The bird has many attributes(特性)which allow it to be kept at home, though there are also a fewnegative aspects. The attributes are nest-building, breeding and alively attitude. The potential negatives are over-breeding and thewildness of the birds.One of the main attributes of zebra finches is their ability to breed. They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world. Once you have two birds, male and female, you will soon have six, as they breed quite easily and have strong babies, usually four at a time. An added attribute is their ability to build their own nests. You can place branch in their place along with some kind of structure, and they will create a nest on their own. It’s very pleasant to see the ways males and females divide some labors and share others, and the babies grow up quickly. Overall, zebra finches are energetic birds, and they can make every place where they live delightful lives.On the negative side, they will breed and in-breed. Often, in-breeding does little harm and does not cause genetic defects (缺陷), as happens more often in other species. However, no one can tolerate just any population level. One has to either remove their nests altogether, which basically removes their personal living place, or check for eggs regularly once a week (the gestation period is 13 days, so even a one-week neglect can lead to births). Eggs can be replaced with false plastic eggs, and this prevents females from laying too many. If they do lay too many, they will die from mineral loss. Since these birds do not tame well, removing eggs can be an unpleasant process of repeatedly invading their personal space.Overall, it is unfortunate that zebra finches are inexpensive birds due to their high level of breeding. They require considerable care to live happy lives. The best care-takers are true avian fanciers —people who have appropriate space for the nests and enough time to allow them to nest-build and breed without over-breeding.70. What is the passage mainly about?A. Zebra finches over-breed by nature and its consequent ill effects.B. Only people who love birds can take care of Zebra finches.C. Domestic zebra finches require a lot of care to live happy lives.D. Zebra finches never become completely tame.71. By saying “They are the rabbits of the domestic bird world”, the writer means that bothrabbits and Zebra finches ______.A. have good ability to breedB. are difficult to be raisedC. live delightful livesD. share responsibilities72. In paragraph 3, the word “gestation” probably means ______.A. the period when eggs remain freshB. the time when finches build up their nest and lay eggsC. the time required for the parents to create a nestD. the time required for baby birds to develop and to be born73. According to the passage, attributes of domestic zebra finches include ______.A. their rareness and easiness to be tamedB. their nest-building, sharing of responsibilities and delightful personalitiesC. their in-breeding, which does not cause as much genetic harm as in other speciesD. the fact that they are from Australia and have difficulty in adapting themselves(C)“Does my smile look big in this?” Future fitting-room mirrors in clothing stores could subtly adjust your reflection to make you look ─and hence feel ─happier, encouraging you to like what you see.Th at’s the idea behind the Emotion Evoking System developed by Shigeo Yoshida and colleagues at the University of Tokyo in Japan. The system can manipulate, or in other word, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face.The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones ─that laughter comes before happiness, rather than the other way around ─is a well-established idea.The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a computer system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a web-camera image of his or her face ─as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered with software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown (皱眉).Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited (招募) 21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was complete the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy.Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers’ emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented withthe altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely.The system could be used to manipulate consumers’ impressions of products, say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothing-store fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on.“It’s certainly an interesting area,” says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. “Attempting to make slight differences to these and ens uring that the reflected image looks believable would be much more challenging,” he says.Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. “You could argue that if it makes people happy what harm is it doing?” says Creed. “But I can imagine that many people may feel manipulated, uncomfortable and cheated if they found out.”74. What’s the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System?A. To see whether one’s feeling can be unconsciously affected.B. To see whether one’s facial expressions can be altered.C. To see whether laughter comes before happiness.D. To replace the mirrors in future clothing-store fitting rooms.75. What can we learn about the web-camera image in the study?A. It recorded th e volunteers’ performance in the task.B. It gave the volunteers a false image.C. It attempted to make the volunteers feel happier.D. It beautified the volunteers’ appearance in the mirror.76. What does Creed mention as a limitation of the technology?A. It only changes the areas around the mouth and the eyes.B. It only works in clothing stores.C. It only makes subtle changes to people’s expressions.D. It only deals with a limited number of facial expressions.77. What does Creed’s comm ent on the moral issues with this technology imply?A. Nothing is more important than happiness.B. Technology is unable to manipulate people.C. People should make their decisions independently.D. People should neglect the harm of the technology.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.When e-mail first came into general use about twenty years ago, there was a lot of talk about the arrival of the paperless office. However, it seems that e-mail has yet to revolutionize office communication. According to communications analyst Richard Metcalf, some offices have actually seen an increase in paper as a result of e-mail. “Information in the form of e-mail messages now floods our computer screens. These messages can be sent so quickly that memos tend to be distributed in the hundreds. For those secretaries whose bosses ask them to print out all their e-mails and leave them in their in-trays, this means using up a great deal of paper every month,” Metcalf says.Metcalf has found that because some e-mails get lost in cyberspace, important documents are increasingly likely to be asked by clients and colleagues to send all important documents both by e-mail and by fax. This highlights a further potential problem with e-mail in today’s offices ─it is taking up time rather than saving it. “With e-mail, communication is much easier, but there is also more room for misunderstandings,” says psychologist Dr David Lewis. Generally, much less care is taken with e-mails than with letters or faxes and the sender will probably print the document and reread it before putting it in an envelope or sending it by fax.More worrying is still the increasing misuse of e-mail for sen ding “flame-mail”─inappropriate e-mail messages. Recent research in several companies suggests that aggressive communications like this are on the increase. E-mail has become the perfect medium for conveying workplace dissatisfaction because it is so instant.E-mail can also be a problem in other ways. Staffs all too often make the mistake of thinking that the contents of the e-mail, like things said over the phone, are private and not permanent. But it is not only possible for an employer to read all your e-mails, it is also perfectly legal. E-mail messages can be traced back to their origin for a period of at least two years, so you might want to rethink e-mailing your dissatisfaction about your boss to your friends. The advice is to keep personal e-mails out of the office.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 12 WORDS)78. The promise of paperless office has not come true in many offices mainly because manysecretaries are asked to _____________.79. Why has e-mailing taken up time rather than saved it?80. There is an increasing concern that e-mails are misused by some employees to express_____________.81. It is advised that employees should not use company e-mails as a way of ___________.第II 卷(共47分)I.

【小题4】land【解析】50A;该题考查短语的运用;根据句中的"…the trayand took it back to her little kitchen"推测该空应填picked up,拿起;此处指孩子们吃完后她拿起托盘把它带回小厨房.因为该并列句中,后面的句子是一般过去时,所以该句也用一般过去时;故填picked up;51E;该题考查代词的运用;根据上句句意"I like your kitchen我喜欢你的厨房",推测下句句意:但是我的是大一些的;故该空应填"我的"名词性物主代词,联系下句Isn't hard to fix dinners in this small kitchen推知该空应填Mine;52B;该题考查副词运用;根据句中的sat beside Sam,推测该空应填back;walked back 意为:走回来;故填back;53C;该题考查动词运用;根据句中信息Your trip is ending,children,推测该句句意:我们将在罗克城着陆,因为该空的前面有will,故该空应填动词原形;故填land.史密斯小姐带来了一个装有牛奶和饼干的托盘.孩子们喝牛奶,保存饼干,然后史密斯小姐捡起盘子并且把它带回小厨房.An跟着她.那个厨房在飞机后舱.我喜欢你的厨房,Ann告诉史密斯小姐,但是我的是大一些的,在这小厨房里解决晚餐不困难吗?不,Ann.史密斯小姐告诉她.一点不困难.所有的晚餐都是在城市的一个大厨房里做的.他们被堆放在我的小厨房的架子上.所有的东西都在架子上很热.当到了晚餐的时间,我只是把你的晚餐放在一个盘子上,把它带给你.Ann走回来坐在Sam的旁边,她告诉他这架飞机的厨房是什么样的.然后史密斯小姐停了下来,说,孩子们,你们的旅行结束了,一会之后,我们将在罗克城着陆,我喜欢有你们在我的飞机上.他们对史密斯小姐和他们的首次飞机旅行说再见.他们感到非常高兴.明确单词在句子中的作用,根据句中信息对句意作出判断,然后运用单词的适当形式作答.29.The expert can give us many ______ on how to keep ourselves relaxed.(tip)【答案】tips【解析】答案:tips联系语境,根据关键词many可知其后应该跟可数名词的复数形式;根据给出的提示词tip,可知是可数名词,意为"建议";所以此处应该用其复数形式tips,many
