Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Debate is a valuable way to practise communicating. It can also bring long-lasting rewards, especially for people working with Western businesses. The main activity of debate is presenting one's opinion and supporting it with evidence, such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the "Discover Debate" method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business. Successful debaters learn how togive their opinion, reasons and support. "What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact (交流) with someone else's opinion, rather than brush their opinion aside."Debate skills are also important in selling a product, he says. In that situation, the judges are the customers. "So on Monday, for example, one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they'll make as strong a case as they can. On Tuesday, the next day, another company will come in and present their case to the customer. Usually the party that can present the strongest case wins."Debate also strengthens critical thinking. In other words, it helps students learn to ask questions and try to understand someone's reasons and evidence.Mr. Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying. Then, they look for the weak points in someone else's opinion or argument. He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else's point of view. Mr. Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind. "There's an expression in English: don't criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is, it puts us in another person's shoes."第36题According to Paragraph 1, what is the purpose of debate?A.To bring long-lasting material rewards.B.To present evidence such as statistics and facts.C.To respond to questions in a systematic way.D.To persuade people to accept your opinions.第37题Why is debate important?A.It helps people understand others better.B.It allows people to present their opinions.C.It develops one's thinking and communicative competence.D.It gives one the opportunity to brush others' opinion aside.第38题What does the underlined word "case" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Container.B.Evidence.C.Problem.D.Product.第39题What can debaters benefit from "walking in another person's shoes"?A.Becoming more broad-minded.B.Developing critical thinking.C.Finding others' weak points.D.Trying out others' methods.上一题下一题(40~43/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.We all love a hero, and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all. You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone, risking—and at times losing—their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups, or from the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound, Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Belgian Malinois—all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty, and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell—to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals, they serve in many different fields, including specialist Search, snow slide rescue, dead body location, and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker, a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength, the dog must be swift, confident, easily trainable, adaptable, and have a high level of stamina (耐力) and endurance. A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during "down" time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted. Certification training can take from two to three years, working three to four hours a day, three to six days a week, often in group, team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue training, for instance, includes "air scenting"—where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim's scent (气味) and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.第40题Rescue dogs are chosen probably because ______.A.they are loyalB.they are braveC.they have amazing appearancesD.they have good eyesight第41题What does "faint-hearted" in Paragraph 5 mean?A.Courageous.B.Cowardly.C.Energetic.D.Slow.第42题Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A.Sharp hearing.B.Swift movement.C.Extraordinary smelling.D.A strong memory.What is the passage mainly about?A.Selection process of rescue dogs.B.Qualities and training of rescue dogs.C.Risks rescue dogs are faced with.D.Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.上一题下一题(44~47/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Eating an apple a day doesn't keep the doctor away, but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year. That's according to a new study that investigates whether there's any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of Michigan School of Nursing, asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7,646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year, the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. "Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications," the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, they do contain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes (二型糖尿病), improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (结肠) cancer.第44题How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A.149.B.7,646.C.753.D.8,399.第45题What is the conclusion of the study?A.Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults' trips to the doctor.B.An apple a day does keep the doctor away.C.Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D.A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.What can we learn from the passage?A.Apples are better than oranges.B.Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.C.Apples can help cure certain diseases.D.Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.第47题What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A.Objective.B.Creative.C.Subjective.D.Persuasive.上一题下一题(48~51/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Sometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government's efforts to improve schools: new standards and tests to be applied, strict teacher evaluations, and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees, not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas—which is what fear does to us—research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools, Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing: psychological safety or safety to speak one's mind, to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn't working, to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn't come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider, the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity (正直). The challenge is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught, each teacher had different expectations about how much extra effort teachers should put into their work—a big difference between the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are unconscious or unspoken, it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person's behavior. As we all know, assumptions are often wrong. For example, parents and teachers may think the principal made a particular decision based on his career advancement rather than what's best for the students. If we don't feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations, trust flies out the window and our relationships suffer.第48题According to Paragraph 1, why does the author scratch his head?A.Because he doesn't know what to do once schools are closed.B.Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C.Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D.Because he is not in favor of the government's reform efforts.第49题According to Bryk and Schneider, what was most important for successful school improvement?A.New standards and tests in schools.B.Positive social relationships.C.Strict teacher and student evaluations.D.Assistance of the government.第50题What is meant by trust in school?A.Freedom to express one's views.B.Extra effort teachers put into their work.C.Independence of the teachers in schools.D.Unconscious and unspoken expectations.第51题What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person's behavior?A.They should be trusted.B.They are often bold.C.They are often incorrect.D.They should be encouraged.上一题下一题(52~55/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.An interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe, Latin America, Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role, but these folks also have strong social ties, tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones, as described in author Dan Buettner's latest book, The Blue Zones Solution, we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact, Buettner's Blue Zones Beverage Rule—a kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of studying these places—is: "Drink coffee for breakfast, tea in the afternoon, wine at 5 p.m."Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea. Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea, as well as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break 100? Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke, heart disease and several cancers. One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism (新陈代谢).If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria, the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean,you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves. Instead, Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day—either rosemary, wild sage, oregano, marjoram, mint or dandelion, all plants that may have anti-inflammatory (消炎的) properties, which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikaria's very low dementia (痴呆) rate, since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.第52题What does the underlined word "centenarians" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.People who have secret lifestyles.B.People who enjoy physical exercise.C.People who are one hundred years old or older.D.People who carry, the gene for being slim.第53题According to Paragraph 3, what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A.In the morning.B.Any time of a day.C.In the early evening.D.In the afternoon.第54题What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?A.To improve metabolism.B.To lower blood pressure.C.To lower life stress.D.To improve social relationships.第55题What might be the best title of the passage?A.Tea-Drinking TipsB.Lifestyle Secrets of IkariansC.Tea-Drinking Ceremony in OkinawaD.Blue Zones Solutions上一题下一题(56~60/共5题)Part ⅤDaily ConversationDirections: Pick out the appropriate expressions from the eight Choices below and complete the following dialogues by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.Can I speak to Mr. Johnson, pleaseB.I'll tell him you've calledC.I'll give him the messageD.What can I do for youE.Can you tell him that we can meet tomorrow afternoon in my officeF.Can I take a messageG.Can you ask him to call me back as soon as possibleH.That's rightWoman: Hello, Mr. Johnson's office.Man: Good morning. 1 ?Woman: Sorry, he's in a meeting at the moment. 2 ?Man: Yes.

Each passage is followed by four questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneDebate is a valuable way to practise communicating.It can also bring long-lasting rewards,especially for people working with Western businesses.The main activity of debate is presenting one's opinion and supporting it with evidence,such as statistics or facts.It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the"Discover Debate"method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business.Successful debaters learn how to give their opinion,reasons and support."What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact(交流)with someone else's opinion,rather than brush their opinion aside."Debate skills are also important in selling a product,he says.In that situation,the judges are the customers."So on Monday,for example,one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they"ll make as strong a ease asthey can.On Tuesday,the next day,another company will come in and present their ease to the /doc/b813960983.html,ually the party that can present the strongest case wins”Debate also strengthens critical thinking.In other words,it helps students learn to ask questions and try to understand someone's reasons and evidence.lift-.Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying.Then,they look for the weak points in someone else's opinion or argument.He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else' s point of view.Mr.Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind."There's an expression in English:don't criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes.I think the wonderful thing about debate is,it puts us in another person's shoes."36.According to Paragraph1,what is the purpose of debate?A.To bring long-lasting material rewards.B.To present evidence such as statistics and facts.C.To respond to questions in a systematic way.D.To persuade people to accept your opinions.37.Why is debate important.A.It helps people understand others better.B.It allows people to present their opinions.C.It develops one's thinking and communicative competence.D.It gives one the opportunity to brush others'opinion aside.38.What does the underlined word“case”in Paragraph3refer to?A.Container.B.Evidence.C.Problem.D.Product.39.What can debaters benefit fro m“walking in another person' s shoes”.A.Becoming more broad-minded.B.Developing critical thinking.C.Finding others'weak points.D.Trying out others'methods.Passage TwoWe all love a hero,and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all.You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone,risking--and at times losing--their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups,or from the traditional Herding Group.These types include the Bloodhound,Labrador Retriever,Newfoundland,German Shepherd,Golden Retriever,and Belgian Malinois--all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength,loyalty,and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell--to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas.As highly trained animals,they serve in many different fields,including specialist search,snow slide rescue,dead body location,and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker,a dog must display certain qualities.In addition to intelligence and strength,the dog must be swift,confident,easily trainable,adaptable,and have a high level of stamina(耐力)and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during"down"time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many,many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty.Training is not for the faint-hearted.Certification training can take from two to three years,working three to four hours a day,three to sixdays a week,often in group,team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training.Rescue training,for instance,includes"air scenting"--where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim's scent(气味)and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.40.Rescue dogs are chosen probably because__A.they are loyalB.they are braveC.they have amazing appearancesD.they have good eyesight41.What does"faint-hearted"in Paragraph5mean??A.Courageous.B.Cowardly.C.Energetic.D.Slow.42.Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A.Sharp hearing.B.Swift movement.C.Extraordinary smelling.D.A strong memory.43.What is the passage mainly about?A.Selection process of rescue dogs.B.Qualities and training of rescue dogs.C.Risks rescue dogs are faced with.D.Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeEating an apple a day doesn't keep the doctor away,but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year.That's according to a new study that investigates whether there's any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis,of the University of Michigan School of Nursing,asked8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health.A total of753were apple eaters,consuming at least149g of raw apple per day.The remaining7,646were classed as non-apple eaters.When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be27%less likely to visit the druggist for drugs. Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption,though."Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away.However,the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications,"the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters.While apples do not compete with oranges,they do contain some immune(免疫的)system-increasing vitamin C,which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less.With over8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit,an apple canprovide roughly14%your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type2diabetes(二型糖尿病),improved lung function and a lower risk of colon(结肠)cancer.44.How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A.149.B.7,646.C.753.D.8,399.45.What is the conclusion of the study?A.Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults'trips to the doctor.B.An apple a day does keep the doctor away.C.Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D.A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.46.What can we learn from the passage?A.Apples are better than oranges.B.Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.C.Apples can help cure certain diseases.D.Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.47.What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A.Objective.B.Creative.C.subjective D.persuasivePassage FourSometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government's efforts to improve schools:new standards andtests to be applied,strict teacher evaluations,and threats of school closures and job losses.They frighten the school employees,not to mention the students.Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas--which is what fear does to us--research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach.In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools,Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing:psychological safety or safety to speak one's mind,to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn't working,to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn't come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider,the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity(正直).The challenge is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught,each teacher had different expectations about how much effort teachers should put into their work--a big difference between the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening.And when expectations are unconscious or unspoken,it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person's behavior.As we all Imam,assumptions are often wrong. For example,parents and teachers my think the principal made a particular decision based on his career advancement ratherthan hat"s best for the students.don't feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations,trust flies out the window and our relationships suffer.48.According to Paragraph1,why does the author scratch his head?A.Because he doesn't know what to do once schools are closed.B.Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C.Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D.Because he is not in favor of the government's reform efforts.49.According to Bryk and Schneider,what was most important for successful school improvement?A.New standards and tests in schools.B.Positive social relationships.C.Strict teacher and student evaluations.D.Assistance of the government.50.What is meant by trust in school?A.Freedom to express one's views,B.Extra effort teachers put into their work.C.Independence of the teachers in schools.D.Unconscious and unspoken expectations.51.What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person's behavior?A.They should be trusted.B.They are often bold.C.They are often incorrect.D.They should be encouraged.Passage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe,Latin America,Asia and the US that live to be100have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role,but these folks also have strong social ties,tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones,as described in author Dan Buettner’s latest book,The Blue Zones Solution,we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions.In fact,Buettner's Blue Zones Beverage Rule--a kind of guideline summarized from his15or so years of studying these places--is:"Drink coffee for breakfast,tea in the afternoon,wine at5p.m"Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea.Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea,as well as foods like cocoa.Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break1007Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke,heart disease and several cancers.One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism(新陈代谢).If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria,the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean,you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves.Instead,Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day--either rosemary,wild sage,oregano,maijoram,mint or dandelion,all plants that may have anti-inflammatory(消炎的)properties,which may help lower bloodpressure.This could explain Ikaria's very low dementia (痴呆)rate,since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.52.What does the underlined word"centenarians"in Paragraph 1refer to?A.People who have secret lifestyles.B.People who enjoy physical exercise.C.People who are one hundred years old or older.D.People who carry the gene for being slim.53.According to Paragraph3,what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A.In the morning.B.Any time of a day.C.In the early evening.D.In the afternoon.54.What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?A.To improve metabolism.B.To lower blood pressure.C.To lower life stress.D.To improve social relationships.55.What might be the best title of the passage?A.Tea-Drinking TipsB.Lifestyle Secrets of IkariansC.Tea-Drinking Ceremony in OkinawaD.Blue Zones SolutionsⅤ.Daily Conversation(15points)Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.Can I speak to Mr.Johnson,pleaseB.I’ll tell him you’ve calledC.I’ll give him the messageD.What can I do for youE.Can you tell him that we can meet tomorrow afternoon in my officeF.Can I take a messageG.Can you ask him to call me back as soon as possibleH.That’s rightWoman:Hello,Mr.Johnson's office.Man:Good morning.56?Woman:Sorry,he's in a meeting at the moment.57?Man:Yes.This is Steve Lee from Bright light Systems.58?Woman:Tomorrow afternoon in your office.Man:59Woman:Okay.60Man:Thank you.第Ⅱ卷(非选择题,共25分)Ⅵ.Writing(25points)Directions:For this part,you are supposed to write an essay in English in100-120words based on the following information. Remember to write it clearly.61.你(Li Yuan)组织同学进行了一次烧烤野餐(barbecue)。

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Debate is a valuable way to practise communicating. It can also bring long-lasting rewards, especially for people working with Western businesses. The main activity of debate is presenting one's opinion and supporting it with evidence, such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the "Discover Debate" method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business. Successful debaters learn how togive their opinion, reasons and support. "What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact (交流) with someone else's opinion, rather than brush their opinion aside."Debate skills are also important in selling a product, he says. In that situation, the judges are the customers. "So on Monday, for example, one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they'll make as strong a case as they can. On Tuesday, the next day, another company will come in and present their case to the customer. Usually the party that can present the strongest case wins."Debate also strengthens critical thinking. In other words, it helps students learn to ask questions and try to understand someone's reasons and evidence.Mr. Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying. Then, they look for the weak points in someone else's opinion or argument. He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else's point of view. Mr. Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind. "There's an expression in English: don't criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is, it puts us in another person's shoes."第36题According to Paragraph 1, what is the purpose of debate?A.To bring long-lasting material rewards.B.To present evidence such as statistics and facts.C.To respond to questions in a systematic way.D.To persuade people to accept your opinions.第37题Why is debate important?A.It helps people understand others better.B.It allows people to present their opinions.C.It develops one's thinking and communicative competence.D.It gives one the opportunity to brush others' opinion aside.第38题What does the underlined word "case" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Container.B.Evidence.C.Problem.D.Product.第39题What can debaters benefit from "walking in another person's shoes"?A.Becoming more broad-minded.B.Developing critical thinking.C.Finding others' weak points.D.Trying out others' methods.上一题下一题(40~43/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.We all love a hero, and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all. You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone, risking—and at times losing—their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups, or from the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound, Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Belgian Malinois—all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty, and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell—to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals, they serve in many different fields, including specialist Search, snow slide rescue, dead body location, and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker, a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength, the dog must be swift, confident, easily trainable, adaptable, and have a high level of stamina (耐力) and endurance. A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during "down" time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted. Certification training can take from two to three years, working three to four hours a day, three to six days a week, often in group, team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue training, for instance, includes "air scenting"—where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim's scent (气味) and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.第40题Rescue dogs are chosen probably because ______.A.they are loyalB.they are braveC.they have amazing appearancesD.they have good eyesight第41题What does "faint-hearted" in Paragraph 5 mean?A.Courageous.B.Cowardly.C.Energetic.D.Slow.第42题Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A.Sharp hearing.B.Swift movement.C.Extraordinary smelling.D.A strong memory.What is the passage mainly about?A.Selection process of rescue dogs.B.Qualities and training of rescue dogs.C.Risks rescue dogs are faced with.D.Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.上一题下一题(44~47/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Eating an apple a day doesn't keep the doctor away, but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year. That's according to a new study that investigates whether there's any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of Michigan School of Nursing, asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7,646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year, the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. "Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications," the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, they do contain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes (二型糖尿病), improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (结肠) cancer.第44题How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A.149.B.7,646.C.753.D.8,399.第45题What is the conclusion of the study?A.Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults' trips to the doctor.B.An apple a day does keep the doctor away.C.Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D.A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.What can we learn from the passage?A.Apples are better than oranges.B.Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.C.Apples can help cure certain diseases.D.Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.第47题What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A.Objective.B.Creative.C.Subjective.D.Persuasive.上一题下一题(48~51/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Sometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government's efforts to improve schools: new standards and tests to be applied, strict teacher evaluations, and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees, not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas—which is what fear does to us—research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools, Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing: psychological safety or safety to speak one's mind, to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn't working, to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn't come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider, the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity (正直). The challenge is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught, each teacher had different expectations about how much extra effort teachers should put into their work—a big difference between the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are unconscious or unspoken, it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person's behavior. As we all know, assumptions are often wrong. For example, parents and teachers may think the principal made a particular decision based on his career advancement rather than what's best for the students. If we don't feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations, trust flies out the window and our relationships suffer.第48题According to Paragraph 1, why does the author scratch his head?A.Because he doesn't know what to do once schools are closed.B.Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C.Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D.Because he is not in favor of the government's reform efforts.第49题According to Bryk and Schneider, what was most important for successful school improvement?A.New standards and tests in schools.B.Positive social relationships.C.Strict teacher and student evaluations.D.Assistance of the government.第50题What is meant by trust in school?A.Freedom to express one's views.B.Extra effort teachers put into their work.C.Independence of the teachers in schools.D.Unconscious and unspoken expectations.第51题What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person's behavior?A.They should be trusted.B.They are often bold.C.They are often incorrect.D.They should be encouraged.上一题下一题(52~55/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.An interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe, Latin America, Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role, but these folks also have strong social ties, tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones, as described in author Dan Buettner's latest book, The Blue Zones Solution, we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact, Buettner's Blue Zones Beverage Rule—a kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of studying these places—is: "Drink coffee for breakfast, tea in the afternoon, wine at 5 p.m."Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea. Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea, as well as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break 100? Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke, heart disease and several cancers. One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism (新陈代谢).If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria, the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean,you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves. Instead, Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day—either rosemary, wild sage, oregano, marjoram, mint or dandelion, all plants that may have anti-inflammatory (消炎的) properties, which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikaria's very low dementia (痴呆) rate, since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.第52题What does the underlined word "centenarians" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.People who have secret lifestyles.B.People who enjoy physical exercise.C.People who are one hundred years old or older.D.People who carry, the gene for being slim.第53题According to Paragraph 3, what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A.In the morning.B.Any time of a day.C.In the early evening.D.In the afternoon.第54题What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?A.To improve metabolism.B.To lower blood pressure.C.To lower life stress.D.To improve social relationships.第55题What might be the best title of the passage?A.Tea-Drinking TipsB.Lifestyle Secrets of IkariansC.Tea-Drinking Ceremony in OkinawaD.Blue Zones Solutions上一题下一题(56~60/共5题)Part ⅤDaily ConversationDirections: Pick out the appropriate expressions from the eight Choices below and complete the following dialogues by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.Can I speak to Mr. Johnson, pleaseB.I'll tell him you've calledC.I'll give him the messageD.What can I do for youE.Can you tell him that we can meet tomorrow afternoon in my officeF.Can I take a messageG.Can you ask him to call me back as soon as possibleH.That's rightWoman: Hello, Mr. Johnson's office.Man: Good morning. 1 ?Woman: Sorry, he's in a meeting at the moment. 2 ?Man: Yes.

But the number of young people who can 37 universities is limited by the capacity of the universities, which is 38than enough to take all the young people who have the basic qualifications for university admission. In practice, therefore, entry to the universities is competitive. But university degree courses are also 39 at polytechnics, and entry to the Open University is less restricted.The academic year begins after the summer holidays and is divided into three “terms”, with the 40 between them formed by the Christmas and Easter holidays. The exact dates of the holidays vary from area to area, 41 in general about two weeks at Christmas and Easter, plus often a week or more at Whitsun, and six weeks in the summer, beginning rather late. Schools outside the state system decide on their own holiday 42 , generally taking a month off at Christmas and Easter and eight weeks in the summer. The three terms are not everywhere called by the same names; indeed 43 schools call the January-March period “the Spring Term”, others use “Spring Term” for the periodApril-July. Some call the January term “Winter Term” (which is logical), others call it “Easter Term”.Day-schools mostly work Monday to Friday only, from about 9 44 to between 3 and 4 p.m. Lunch is provided and parents pay for it unless they prove to the authorities that they cannot well afford 45 .

This feast is a time when the family comes together for a meal and gives thanks to God for the blessings they have received. The first thanksgiving feast was celebrated by the early American settlers who started the feast to give thanks to God for their good harvest.In America thanksgiving is the family holiday. It is on that holiday that all the family members make a special effort to gather together . The feast is always held on Thursday and most people have a four-day holiday from school and work. Thus they are able to travel a great distance to be with their family.The thanksgiving meal is traditionally turkey which was a large bird valued as food for the first time. The table is filled with fruits, walnuts and many types of vegetables. For the sweet dish the main choice is usually pumpkin pie. The meal is a time for the members of the family to talk to each other. There will be talking before the meal, during the meal and long after the meal.On thanksgiving morning there are in many cities sporting events and parades to mark the day. The family dinner is usually held in the afternoon around 4p.m. . The mother will prepare the meal and the father will carve theturkey. He will be seated at the head of the table. The meal will begin with a short prayer of thanksgiving to God for the blessings the family received. The father will also thank the family for coming together on this day. During the meal there is plenty of food for everyone present. The meal is a very joyful time. When the meal is finished some will help with the dishes and others will return to the living room to talk or watch television.In many ways the feast of thanksgiving is similar to the Chinese feast ofMid-Autumn Festival. It is the time for the family to gather together to give thanks and to share in meal.46. Thanksgiving is said to be the family holiday in America because ______.A. each family has its own way of celebrating traditional holidaysB. people will try to get back to be with their family wherever they areC. people celebrate this holiday only at home and abroadD. it is a holiday for those who have a family47.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies haveshown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51. This passage is mainly about ______.A) living space and behaviorB) population and living conditionsC) interesting experiments on ratsD) a natural law for human society52. What is the purpose of theexperiments described in the passage?A) To determine how much living space a rat needs.B) To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C) To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D) To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53. How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded? A) They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B) They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C) They eat little but sleep soundly.D) They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54. The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A) are directly related with populationB) may cause an increase in violenceC) may lead to high birth rateD) may bring about pollution problems Passage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto ( 世界语) , was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto isspoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role. 55. Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______. A) all people will be able to speak a common languageB) people will learn a foreign language betterC) people can understand each other betterD) people will be able to speak several languages56. Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A) he wanted people to learn it quicklyB) he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC) he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD) he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57. Which of the following is NOT true of English?A) It is widely taught in schools.B) It has become a second language for many millions of people.C) Many books have been written in English.D) It is less popular than Esperanto.58. What is the best title of the passage?A) The language made by one man.B) A talk about the world language.C) English as a second language for everyone.D) Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25 ,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a. m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years havestrengthened the city ’ s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake - resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake - resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations.When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.A) new computers had been installed in the buildingsB) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways 60. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______. A) counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake’ s vibrations61. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ______.A) the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB) the development of flexible building materialsC) the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD) early forecasts of earthquakes62. The main purpose of this passage is mostly to______.A) compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U. S.B) encourage civil engineers to makeextensive use of computersC) outline the history of the development of quake - resistant building materialsD) report new developments in constructing quake - resistant building Section BDirections; Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, mark the corresponding letter on the Answer with a single linePart IV Translation Section A Directions: Put the following sentences into Chinese. All of them are taken from the passages you have just read.71.

I'm away from home, so I have many thingsto adjust to, such as being on my own and meeting many different types of people. There are a lot of things that I like about college that I would like to describe for you.First of all, living at college gives me a sense of responsibility and of being on my own. My parents aren't around to say, "No, you're not going out tonight," or "Did you finish your homework?" Everything I do has to be my decision, and that makes me responsible for my own life. During the second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. And when I got to the bank, I had to decide whether to have a checking or savings account and whether or not to get a credit card. Decisions! Decisions!Friendly people is another thing I like about college. On the first day I came to Mary mount University here in Virginia from New York, I was a bit confused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in. We did not know the building we were supposed to go to, but the guard was very nice. With a smile, he told us what building we were looking for and where we could park our car. My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, and I knew I had to go through some glass doors, but my mother and I didn't know which ones. Some students saw me and asked, "Are you a new student?" When they found out I was looking for New Gerard, one said, "Oh, just follow us; that's where we're going." Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendly people around to talk with.I do like a lot of things about college, but that doesn't mean I don't think about things at home. Although I like college, I can still get homesick. New York is a very good place, too! And sometimes I miss it!76. The text is perhaps written by ________.A. a new studentB. a new teacherC. a foreign reporterD. a foreign visitor77. What does "gives me a sense of responsibility" in the first sentence of Paragraph 2 mean? It means it makes me feel ________.A. responsible for my parents.B. responsible for my teacher.C. responsible for the school.D.responsible for myself.78. One thing that he liked was ________.A. the comfortable dormB. finding his way aroundC. his studies as a first year studentD. the friendly people79. What is New Gerard?A. It's a student's name.B. It's a teacher's name.C. It's a dorm's name.D. It's a school's name.80. Which of the following is NOT true?A. People in Mary mount University are friendly.B.

Even a child can do it!”Most adults who are learning a second or a foreign language would disagree with this statement. For them, learning a language is a very difficult task. They need hundreds of hours of study and practice, and even this will not guarantee success for every adult language learner.What kind of language learner are you? If you are a successful language learner, you have probably been learning independently, actively, and purposefully. On the other hand, if your language learning has been less than successful, you might do well to try some of the techniques outlined above.51. A successful language learner must ___D________.try to learn the new language independently, actively, and purposefully52.

In the United States, as in many other countries in the world, the family is changing. A generation or two ago, the traditional family, in which the father was boss, was customary. Now, the modern family, in which both the father and the mother are equal partners, is more common. Although there are several similarities between the traditional family and the modern family, there also exist some very important differences.In conclusion, the American family of today is different from the family of fifty years ago. In the modern family, the roles of the father, mother, and children have changed as more and more women work outside the home. The next century may bring more important changes to the American family structure. It should be interesting to see.56.

Each passage is followed by some true-false questions. Decide whether each of them is true (T) or false (F).Passage 3Though marriage is practiced in almost all countries of the world, the customs are quite different from one culture to another. It is interesting for me to compare the customs of marriage in the United States with those in my country.I‟ve lived in the U.S. for four years now, but I‟m still not comfortable with the customs here. In fact, what seems strange to me is that courting or dating is not always for the purpose of finding a husband or wife. Some people seem to do it as a hobby.Though I can certainly see the advantages of the freedom that is given to American youths to choose whom they will marry and when, I think I still prefer the customs of my home country. I suppose that‟s because there is not so much guessing and uncertainty.61. Marriage as a social form of male and female relationship exists in all countries of theworld, but customs of marriage vary from culture to culture. T62. As a custom in the U.S., it is the parents who decide when their daughter can have aboyfriend and who he should be. F63. Before the wedding ceremony takes place, the American couple already know each other quite well. T64. In Iran, courting is a very serious matter. It is done only for the purpose of finding ahusband or wife. T65. In Iran, as soon as the wedding ceremony is complete, the bride will go to her husband‟shome. FPassage 4Every four years, there is the presidential election. In the United States, there are two major political parties, Democratic and Republican. The summer before the election, each of the major political parties holds a presidential-nominating convention. It is a large meeting within a political party made up of party delegates chosen from the states, the District of Columbia and the territories. The convention meets every presidential-election year and picks the party‟s presidential and vice-presidential nominees. Once the presidential candidate is selected, his running-mate, the vice-presidential candidate, must be chosen.The newly elected President is inaugurated in January during a nationally-televised ceremony. He then moves into the White House and appoints members of his Cabinet.66. In the United States, there are two minor political parties, Democratic and Republican. F67. Once the presidential candidate is selected, his running-mate, the vice-presidential candidate, must be chosen. T68. On the first Tuesday after the last Monday in November, voters cast their ballots for President and Vice-President. F69. The number of electors allotted to each state is the same as the total number of representatives and senators who represent that state in Congress. T70. The newly elected President is inaugurated on January 1 during a nationally-televised ceremony. FIV. Translate the following sentences into Chinese. (10%)71. Some people who are very intelligent and successful in their fields find it difficult to succeed in language learning.72. The nuclear family usually consists of two parents (mother and father) and their children.73.

Since all the light is pulled in,none can go out.The star becomes black when there is no light.Then a black hole is born!That’s what we know about black holes.What we don’t know is this:What happens inside a black hole after the star has been squeezed into a tiny ball?Does it keep getting smaller and smaller forever?Such a possibility is hard to imagine.But if the black hole doesn’t keep shrinking,what happens to it?Some scientists think black holes are like doorways to another world.They say that as the star dis-appears from our universe,it goes into another universe. In other words,a black hole in our universe could turn into a“white hole”in a different universe As the black hole swallows light,the white hole shines bright-ly-somewhere else.But where?A different place,per-haps,or a different time-many years in the past or future.Could you travel through a black hole?Right now,no.Nothing we know of could go into a black hole without being crushed.The black hole remains a mystery so far.Black holes are mysterious-but that hasn’t stopped scientists from dreaming about them.One scientist suggested that in the future we might make use of the power of black holes.They would supply all of Earth’s energy needs,with plenty to spare.Another scientist wondered if a black hole could some day be usedto2018/02swallow earthly waste-a sort of huge waste disposal(处理)in the sky!41.When the star begins to die.A.there is no fuel left in itB.its outer layer goes into space firstC.a huge explosion will happenD.it doesn’t give off light any longer42.Which of the following does NOT help producea black hole?A.The gravity inside the star is very strong.B.The light can’t go out of the star.C.The star becomes smaller and smaller.D.The dying star shines very brightly.43.The black hole.A.continuesbecomingsmallerandsmallerallthetimeB.goesintoanotheruniverseandbecomesawhiteholeC.can pull in everything we know of in the worldD.will appear at another place at a different time44.For whom is the passage most likely written?A.Scientists.B.Primary school students.C.Researchers.D.General public.45.What’s the best title for this passage?A.A New Scientific Discovery:Black HolesB.How Do Black Holes Come Into Being?C.What Are Black Holes?D.Travel Through A Black HolePassage3One of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admit one’s mistakes It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like“I was wrong about that,”and it is even harder to say,“I was wrong,and you were right about that”.I had an experience recently with someone admit-ting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago. He told me he had been the manager of a certain gro-cery store in the neighborhood where I grew up,and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons.Then he related an incident and I began to remember vaguely the incident he was describing.I was about eight years old at the time,and I went into the store with my mother to do the weekly grocery shopping.On that particular day,I must have found my way to the dairy food department where the incident took place.There must have been a special sale of eggs that day because there was an impressive display of eggs in dozen half-dozen cartons.The cartons were stacked there or four feet high.I must have stopped in front of the display to admire the stacks.Just then a woman came by,pushing her grocery cart and knocked off the stacks of cartons.For some reason,I decided it was up to me to put the display back together,so I went to work.The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened.When he appeared.I was on my knees inspecting some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken,but to him it looked as though I were the culprit He severely reprimanded me and wanted me to pay for the broken eggs.I protested my innocence and tried to explain,bue it did no good Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident,apparently the manager did not.46.How old was the author when he wrote this article?A.About8.B.About18C.About23D.About1547.Who was to blame for knocking off the stacks of cartons?A.The author.B.The managerC.A woman.D.The author’s mother48.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.The woman who knocked off the stacks of cartons was seriously criticized by the manager.B.The author was severely criticized by the manager.C.Awoman carelessly knocked off the stacks of cartons.D.It was the author who put the display back to-gether.49.Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?A.It’s Harder to Admit One’s MistakeB.I Was Once the CulpritC.I Remember an IncidentD.A Case of Mistaken Identity50.The tone of the article expresses the author’s2018/022018/02.A.anger to the manager for his wrong accusationB.admiration for the manager ’s willingness to admit mistakesC.indignation against the woman who knocked off the stacks of cartonsD.regret for the mistake made in the storePassage 4There are three kinds of goals :short-term ,medium-range and long-term goals.Short-range goals are those that usually deal with current activities ,which we can apply on a daily basis Such goals can be achieved in a week or less ,or two weeks ,or possible months ,It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation ,long-term goals cannot amount to much without the achievenment of solid short term goals.Upen completing our short-term goals ,we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-range goals.They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year ,or they could even extend for several years.Any time you move a step at a time ,you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed.You should be persistent.As you complete each step ,you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed And as your list of completion dates grow ,your motivation and desire will increase.Long-range goals may be related to our dreams of the future.They might cover five years or more.Life is not static.We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.51.Our long-term goals mean a lot .A.if we complete our short-range goalsB.if we cannot reach solid short-term goalsC.if we write down the datesD.if we put forward some plans 52.New short-term goals are build upon .A.two years B.long-term goalsC.current activitiesD.the goals that have been completed 53.When we complete each step of our goals .A.we will win final successB.we are overwhelmedC.we will build up confidence of successD.we should have strong desires for setting newgoals54.Once our goals are drawn up ,.A.we should stick to them until we complete themB.we may change our goals as we have new ideas and opportunitiesC.we had better wait for the exciting news of successD.we have made great decision55.It is implied but NOT stated in the passagethat .A.those who have long-term goals will succeedB.writing down the dates may discourage youC.the goal is only a guide for us to reach o ur destinationD.everyone should have a goal 非选择题IV.Writing (40points)1.如今大学生毕业了也难找工作。
