The same can be said about modern technology, such as Internet.At first glance Internet offers us excitement and a worl of promise. Frankly speaking, people who have some ideas of it can not deny the merits born with the system. For instance,it can improve proficiency in scientific research, for by means of it scientists and researchers can get a global look at the latest development in the field concerned and accordingly they need spend no time doing what has already been done. In view of personal communication, the most convenient means could be peculiar to Internet, too.While people speak highly of Internet, its drawbacks shouldn't be neglected. Sometimes, alittle fatal breakdown of the system, or a disastrous error could bring us an enormous amount of damage and loss. Meanwhile, with lnternet's replacement of hooks or the written work as the main source of information, human's writing abilities are weakened and relations between people are desalinated However, every country on this planet should work hard to develop the system to serve us moreefficiently and comfortably, because in the net all countries are interrelated. Internet is colsely in linked。

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 suppmting 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 opinkm,reasans 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 aproduct, he says. In that situation, the judges are the customem. "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 as they can. On Tuesday, the next day, another company will come in and present their ease 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 questionsandtry 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 ofquestioning.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' tcriticize another person before you have walked in theirshoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is, it puts us in another person' s shoes. "36. 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.37. Why is debate important.9A. 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 Paragraph3 refer to?A. Container.B. Evidence.C. Problem.D. Product.39. What can debaters benefit from "walking in another person' s shoes" .9A. Becoming more broad-mindeB. 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 oftheir amazing physical strength, loyalty, and theirtendency 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.39. 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 Paragraph 5 mean??A. Courageous.B. Cowardly.C. EnergetiD. 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,asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming atleast 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% lesslikely 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 docontain 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.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.D.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.subjectiveD.persuasivePassage FourSometimes 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 tosuccessful 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 challeage 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 bigdifference between the teachers who left af~the last bell and those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are uncoasci 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 tamlparticular decision based on his career advancement rather than hat" s best for the studeata. don't feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions ande~aecmtiatm, trust itiea am the window and our relationships suffer.48. 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.49. According to Bryk and Schneider, what was most important for successful school improvemt?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 trusteB. They are often bolC. They are often incorrect.D. They should be encouragePassage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest, hest 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 lotgoing 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. tm"Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea. Researchers are most enthusi- astic almt the components in green tea, aswell as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so manyOkina~vans in Japan break 1007 Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke,heart disease attd several cancers. One review study also found that drinking greentea can slightly improve metabolism (新陈代谢).If you findyourself 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, wildsage,oregano,nmrjotmn,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.52. 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.53. 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.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.

一、 Explain the terms (30 points) 1、consonant cluster 2、nasal plosion 3、lateral plosion4、an initial consonant cluster5、missing explosion6、fricatives二、 Reading comprehention and translation (30 points)Americans think a great deal about time. They constantly refer to time and the value of keeping busy. From childhood, they learn to value time, and their language reflects this preoccupation with it. As children, they are taught to be on time for events and to do work on time. They learn that the price of committing a crime is to do time in prison. When they are having agood time, they say that time flies; they say sadly of someone who is dying that he is living on borrowed time. From the time of its beginning, American English has reflected this preoccupation with time. Nowhere can this sense of time be seen more clearly than in the working place. Working Americans are bound to the clock. It is a commonly held belief that one should balance work against a set time, for example an 8 hour day or a 40 hour week. Anything over these time limits is overtime, and the worker should receive more money per hour for work done during overtime. Time during nonworking hours is also considered very precious. Whether an American decides on a hectic weekend schedule, when Saturday and Sunday are filled with activities, or on a relaxed weekend, the time will be regarded as valuable. Some Americans feel they have a love / hate relationship with time. They love the comforts that progress has brought through work, but they hate the bondage to the clock and the pressures of a time-oriented society. There is little doubt that many Americans feel they have become servants of the clock.M: What are some of the expressions reflecting Americans' preoccupation with time?F: ___________________________________________.

In this instance, ch is a digraph (二合字母(代表一个单音的两个字母, 如sheaf中sh )because the ch sequence represents a single sound in the underlying English sound system.►digraph ['daiɡrɑ:f, -ɡræf]►基本翻译►n. 连字;两字母发一音►contiguously [kən'tigjuəsli] ►基本翻译►adv. 连续地;接触地►网络释义►contiguously:连续|接触地|接触►underlying [,ʌndə'laiiŋ]►基本翻译►adj. 潜在的;根本的;在下面的;优先的►v. 放在的下面;为的基础;优先于(underlie的ing形式)►►Examples: Here are some examples of consonant clusters:►/sp/ and /ts/ in the word spots►/spr/ in the word spray►Exercises: p83-5, 1-6►2、nasal plosion (鼻腔爆破):The release of a plosive by lowering the soft palate so that air escapes through the nose, as at the end of the words Hidden, sadden, sudden, leaden.►When /t/ or /d/ is followed by /n/, (as in button / b tn/ and garden / ga:dn/), the explosion of the plosive takes place through thenose.Nasal Plosion (鼻腔爆破)►3、lateral plosion (舌边爆破):The release of a plosive by lowering the sides of the tongue, as at the end of the word saddle.►When /t/ or /d/ is followed by /l/, (as in little / litl/ and middle /midl/), the tongue-tip remains on the ridge of the upper front teeth, but one or both sides of the tongue are suddenly lowered so that the breath passes out with lateral plosion.Lateral Plosion (舌边爆破)►4、an initial consonant cluster:When two or three or more plosives get together at the beginning of a word. We call it an initial consonant cluster.►Great►Spring►5、missing explosion :When two plosives meet together within a word. The first one doesn’t explode.

They constantly refer to time and the value of keeping busy. From childhood, they learn to value time, and their language reflects this preoccupation with it.►As children, they are taught to be on time for events and to do work on time. They learn that the price of committing a crime is to do time in prison.

From the time of its beginning, American English has reflected this preoccupation with time.►Nowhere can this sense of time be seen more clearly than in the working place. Working Americans are bound to the clock. It is a commonly held belief that one should balance work against a set time, for example an 8 hour day or a 40 hour week. Anything over these time limits is overtime, and the worker should receive more money per hour for work done during overtime.►Time during nonworking hours is also considered very precious. Whetheran American decides on a hectic weekend schedule, when Saturday and Sunday are filled with activities, or on a relaxed weekend, the time will be regarded as valuable. Some Americans feel they have a love / hate relationship with time. They love the comforts that progress has brought through work, but they hate the bondage to the clock and the pressures of a time-oriented society. There is little doubt that many Americans feel they have become servants of the clock.►M: What are some of the expressions reflecting Americans' preoccupation with time?►F: To be on time, have a good time, live on borrowed time and to do time are some of the expressions reflecting Americans' preoccupation with time.►M: What is overtime?►F: Anything over an 8 hour day or a 40 hour week is overtime.►M: Why do many Americans feel they have become servants of the clock? ►F: It is because they live in a time-oriented society.►美国人对时间想的很多,他们不断提到时间和遵守时间的重要性。
