Monitoring data on Sunday showed that air quality indexes in most regions of Beijing had hit 500, the indexes9highest level."Beijing carried out its emergency response plan for dangerous pollution for the first time on Sunday, ,9saicl Yu Jianhua, director of the air quality department under the city environmental protection bureau. The plan, put forth last year, includes multiple measures to take and response to risky levels of air pollution.The plan calls for construction sites to limit construction activity that creates large amounts of dust, as well as asks industrial enterprises to reduce emissions(排放),during dangerous pollution days.The plan also calls for education authorities to instruct schools to limit or completely stop outdoor activities during periods of heavy air pollution.The urban environmental monitoring center said readings for PM 2. 5, or airborne particles measuring less than 2. 5 micrometers in diameter, had reached more than 700 micrograms per square meter at several monitoring stations in Beijing, reaching as high as 993 Saturday evening?radually “These figures represent extremely bad pollution. Pollutants have gaccumulated over the course of recent windless days, making the air quality even worse, "said Zhu Tong, a professor from the college of environmental sciences and engineering at Peking University."Private stock firms are seeking opportunities to invest in clean technology companies in China, especially those that may help reduce air pollution long terni. However, there is a long way to go before the off-the-level smog is stopped,,‘Yu Jianhua added.The pollution is expected to swallow Beijing until Wednesday, when wind willarrive to blow the smog away, according to a weather report from the weatherstation.5.Beijing carried out its emergency response plan to ______ .A.answer the call of environmental authoritiesB.meet the demand of environmental authoritiesC.follow the order of the weather stationD.deal with the damaging health effects of pollution6.Which of the following is TRUE of the news?A.The weather has worsened the situations?B.The weather station announced the city's red fog warning.C.The plan ordered construction sites to stop construction activity.D.Air quality indexes in most districts have hit 993?7.Which of the following is the proper behavior in a smog?A.Closing factories.B.Planting trees?C.Banning government vehicle usage?D.Limiting outdoor activities.8.According to Yu Jianhua, ______ ?A.it won't be long before air pollution is reducedB.it isn't easy to reduce air pollution in a very short timeC.it isn't necessary for people to do more about air pollutionD.it is impossible to get rid of air pollution9.What is the passage mainly about?A.Beijing's air quality indexes and readings for PM 2. 5.B.Beijing's emergency response plan for pollution.C.Smog covers Beijing and the air is heavily polluted.D.Clean technology companies help to reduce air pollution.CYou5re on the third lap around the car park, there are no open spaces, a nd you're already 15 minutes late for your appointment. Right now you5re wishing you could jumpout of the car and let it go to find its own spot.Now there9s an app for that. Virtual Valet lets your iPhone tell your car to park without you in it. “You pull up to the roadside, push a button on your smartphone and the car tak care of everything else, "says Aeron Steinfeld, the lead researcher for the project at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania?To find its own spot, the system uses a sensor suite similar to ones found in many luxury cars? This includes a motion sensor that scans for moving cars and pedestrians,and a forward-facing laser rangefinder normally found in adaptive cruise control to determine the distance of objects in front of the car. Infoirnation from these sensors is thenfed to an onboard computer to plot the vehicle's course? The user can watch the whole process from his or her phone?Better still, it will be affordable. The team has spent the last year moving from high-end imaging and processing equipment to less expensive components? In experiments,the vehicle was able to navigate through a crowded parking structure, find an empty spot,and park all on its own. And the greatest appeal of the Virtual Valet Parking App is that it requires no change to existing parking facilities orinfrastructure ?For the moment, the only car equipped for control by Virtual Valet is Carnegie Mellon's modified(改进)Jeep Wranger, which the researchers have named NavLabll. ButSteinfeld hopes that major car manufacturers will adopt the technology.It might be more than technology that holds up the show, howeve匚Self-driving cars have been licensed in only three US states—California, Nevada and Florida一and it's unclear how this app would agree with self-driving laws. Until these questions are settled, your insurance provider might be unwilling to cover a ding from a parking incident.10.It can be learned from the first two paragraphs that _______ ?A.parking lots are too crowdedB.parking spaces are too limitedC.your car can park automatically via a smartphone appD.you can leave your car alone if you can't find a parking spot11.What's the main idea of Paragraph 3?A.How to determine the distance of objects.B.How the Virtual Valet works.C.How to use the system.D.How to analyze the information about the vehicle's course.12.The underlined word6<plot,9in Paragraph 3 probably means" _________A. drawB. circleC. changeD. follow13.What is the biggest advantage of the system according to the text?A.It is very cheap.B.It can help your car park wherever you want.C? 11 is very convenient to use?D.It can adapt to the present parking facilities.14.We can infer from the text that ______ ?A.no car manufacturers show interest in the technologyB.there will be some difficulty in promoting the technologyC.the technology is now widely used in the USD.the technology conflicts with self-driving laws in the USII.阅读填空(2013-岳阳高三检测)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.The world would have been so much better 讦we all knew to say and do the right thing at the right time. However, that is not the case, especially when it comes to instilling (逐步培养)propel* behaviors in kids. Behavior modification(BM)techniques were recently created to help in instilling proper behaviors in children as well as adults.Behavior modification refers to establishing appropriate behaviors in individuals and discouraging those that are not desirable. The techniques are used in behaviormodification therapy that aims to correct and instill appropriate behaviors inchildren.The most commonly used behavior modification techniques are positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement and punishment. Positive reinforcement refers to reinforcing a desired behavior through the process of rewarding it. Negative reinforcement behavioral strategies are based on the removal of a negative consequence or a behaviorbecause the desired behavior was performed. Punishment refers to subjecting(使服从丁Jan individual to a negative condition because of an inappropriate behavior.The behavior modification techniques for children are mostly based on positive and negative reinforcement. However, parents should realize that these techniques can't be relied upon totally for child behavior modification. This can be done through effective communication and greater focus on the parent-child relationship? As a parent, don't make the reward a monetary one. Try to make it look more like a privilege than a reward?Although we talk so much about the role of a parent in bringing positive behavior modification in children, both parents and teachers have equally important roles to play. Teachers play their role through preventive classroom management, teaching social problem-solving skills like alternative thinking, and continuous monitoring of a child's behavio匚It is true that there are various behavior modification techniques available for encouraging proper behaviors in children.

How will you prepare her so that she will realize her intelligence, develop both her confidence and sensitivity, be open-minded, yet 37 in character In short, what kind of education will you 38 so that she can become one of the world's truly great leaders”The young teacher 39 in a cold sweat. It had never occurred to him before ---any one of his present or future students could be the person 40 in his dream. Was he preparing them to rise to any position which they may 41 He thought, “How might my 42 change if I knew that one of my students were this perso n” He 43 began to formulate (规划;想出)a plan in his mind.This student would 44 experience as well as instruction.

But the fact is that scientists have already begun to discover how certain genes influence us. And in the next decade, they will learn a lot more.We have known for a long time that many of our physical characteristics are inherited(继承). For example, our eye colour and certain diseases are decided by our genes. As long as you have a good diet, scientists can predict your height by looking at your parents' heights. And we now know that the need to wear glasses has a genetic cause. Our eating habits also appear to be decided by our genes!With other characteristics, things are not so clear. Certainly, scientists have now shown that some traits(特性,特质) are strongly influenced by our genes. Do you prefer getting up early or late To a great extent, it's your genes that decide. Do you enjoy dangerous sports such as car racing There is a gene that influences how much excitement we need.But with most psychological characteristics, scientists are learning that both our genes and our environment affect us. This is true of things such as how violent we are, and how well we get on with other people. So, even though scientists may soon be able to describe our genes in detail, it does not mean they will be able to predict our future with any real success.Nevertheless, the fact is that scientists will be able to "read" our genes in the near future. This will create new problems. To give a few examples, insurance companies may not want to insure people whose genes predict certain illnesses. Employers may not want to employ people who have a gene for violence. One thing is already clear -- with these new developments, life is going to become even more complicated!56. Which characteristics is mostly likely to be inheritedA. Eye color.B. Interest.C. Future.D. Ability.57. What kind of problem will these new developments createA. You may die of a certain illness described in the envelope.B. There will be an increased number of violent people.C. People may take part in dangerous sports such as car racing.D. Insurance companies may refuse to insure people with a gene for certain disease.58. Why won’t scientists be able to tell us a lot about our futureA. Because we’re affected not only by our genes but also by our environment.B. Because scientists will not be able to read our genes in the near future.C. Because life in the future will be more complicated.D. Because scientists can’t describe our genes in detail.BDoctors say anger can be an extremely harmful emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that angry feeling can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm, reasonable way. Others burst with anger, losing control of themselves. But still other people control their anger. They cannot or will not express it.For years many doctors thought that controlling one’s anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain lets out the same hormones that are produced during tense situations. They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, and narrow the blood vessels. In general, the person feels excited and ready to act.Doctors said that controlling these feelings only makes the feelings continue. And this can lead to many medical problems. Doctors thought a person could prevent these problems by letting the anger out by expressing it freely. But recently some doctors held a different view. They said that people who express anger too often and violently did become, in fact, more and not less angry. They said this, too, can cause medical problems.Some doctors say that both controlling and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger strongly may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”59. Which of the following is the more recent view about the expression of angerA. It is dangerous both to express anger violently and to control one’s anger.B. One can avoid his medical problems by expressing his anger freely.C. One’s heart rate will not change if his an ger is kept unexpressed.D. One is likely to suffer from high blood pressure in a fit of great anger.60. When you get angry, which of the following should you do for the sake of healthA. Controlling your anger and then studying its cause.B. Letting out your anger freely and then studying its cause.C. Studying its cause and waiting till it cools down.D. Waiting till it has cooled down and then studying its cause.61. Which of the following can best replace the title of the passageA. Different Ways of Dealing with AngerB. The Danger of Anger and Its SolutionC. New Medical Discoveries about AngerD. An Argument between the New and Old Views about AngerCThe question of what children learn, and how they should learn it, is continually being debated and redebated. Nobody dares any longer to defend the old system, the parrot-fashion(way of learning by repeating what others say)of learning lessons, the grammar-with-a-whip(鞭子)system, which was good enough for our grandparents. The theories of modern psychology have stepped in to argue that we must understand the needs of our children. Children are not just small adults; they are children who must be respected as such.Well, you may say, this is as it should be, and a good idea. But think further. What happens “Education” becomes the responsibility not of teachers, but of psychologists. What happens then Teachers worry too much about the psychological implications(暗示) of their lessons, and forget about the subjects themselves. If a child dislikes a lesson, the teacher feels that it is his fault, not the child’s. So teachers worry whether history is “relevant” to modern young children. And do they dare to recount stories about violent battles Or will this make the children themselves violent Can they tell their classes about children of different races, or will this encourage racial hatred Why teach children to write grammatical sentences Oral expression is better. Sums Arithmetic No; real-life mathematical situations are more understandable.You see, you can go too far. Influenced by educational theorists, who have nothing better to do than write books about their ideas, teachers leave their teaching-training colleges filled with grand, psychological ideas about children and their needs. They make complicated preparations and try out their “modern methods” on the long-suffering children. Since one “modern method” rapidly replaces another, the poor kids will have well been fed up by the time they leave school. Frequently the modern methods are so complicated that they fail to be understood by the teachers, let alone the children; even more often, the relaxed discipline so necessary for the “informal” feeling the class must have, prevents all but a handful of children from learning anything.62. Under the old system, children were .A. made to learn passivelyB. spoiled by their parentsC. treated as adultsD. were forced to become parrots63. Modern psychologists hold the view that .A. children must be understood and respectedB. children are small adults and they know what they needC. children are better off without learning lessonsD. education of children is the responsibility of psychologists64. What happens when teachers pay too much attention to the psychological implications duringa lessonA. They find that children dislike the lessons.B. They tend to blame students for their failure in teaching.C. They don’t pay enough attention to students’ actual lessons.D. They no longer want to teach children history.65. How do you understand the underlined sentence at the end of the passageA. Children will learn well in a relaxed classroom atmosphere.B. Only a few children will actually learn when there is no discipline.C. Relaxed discipline is necessary for children to develop.D. No children will learn anything without strict discipline.66. What is the author’s attitude toward the theories of modern psychologyA. Uninterested.B. Tolerant.C. Satisfied.D. Critical.D“I find myself glancing at my watch to see how long I’ve been standing in line,” she said. “Everywhere I go, I notice if the dumpster(垃圾罐)gates are open or if there’s trash in the parking lot.” Ms. Clark is a “mystery shopper”, one of thousands of contract workers that companies hire to pretend as regular customers in order to judge customer service, cleanliness and whether a store is selling a product that meets company specifications (规格).Mystery shoppers can be found or, rather, not found, everywhere from restaurants and automotiveshops to convenience stores and department stores. They play a constant cat-and-mouse game with store and restaurant employees and managers. However it’s not all fun and games. Once in the field, a mystery shopper will typically visit several stores or restaurants per hour, taking mental notes while inside, then jotting down physical notes after they leave.It’s important for mystery shoppers to be as exact as possible, because the client companies are looking for data they can use to improve the ir service. The questionnaire won’t say, “Does the trash can need to be emptied” What an educated shopper will say is, “The trash can to the left of the front door was overflowing with 10 pieces of trash on the ground.” Companies don’t need opinion but facts.Nowadays mystery shoppers are armed with a number of high-tech devices, such as a digital scale and a digital thermometer, as well as a handheld PC for recording the entire experience. It’s a challenging job but a rewarding one. Mystery shoppers can be full time or part time, but the full-time workers tend to stick to standard mystery shopping while part-timers often choose the less complex reward-based programs. In those , the shoppers stay disguised(装扮的) only until the “shop” is finished, and then rev eal (透漏) themselves to the store management and award prizes to employees who provided excellent service.To be a mystery shopper, it’s important to be a good observer, but sometimes it’s important to have the right profile(外表), too. Companies often hire shoppers from particular backgrounds to better blend in with clients’ regular customers. If a secret shopper will be sent in, for example, to do a high-end automotive shop, the candidate must have a particular profile that meets a high-end, luxury car-type buyer profile. “It’s a challenge to perform your shop without being discovered,” Ms. Clark said, “because most of the people that we work for are very aware of the mystery shopping program.”67. According to the text a “mystery shopper” would not have to .A. sign a contract with the employerB. travel a lot around the cityC. provide exact facts to the companyD. fill in questionnaires68. We learn from the text that Ms. Clark .A. visits some shops regularly and sometimes does something specialB. pretends to be a shopper and evaluates the servicesC. is a government official looking into the servicesD. is a manager of a company offering good services69. People are willing to become a mystery shopper mainly because they can .A. get the best service and get paid at the same timeB. play a cat-and-mouse game with shop employees and managersC. do the job either full time or part time and get paid wellD. observe clearly what happens in the shops70. What does the underlin ed word “those” in the 4th paragraph refer toA. The shops where the mystery shoppers go.B. The less complex reward-based programs.C. Part-time jobs.D. Excellent services.IV.任务型阅读Don’t complain in the NBAThe NBA has a new rule this season. It’s called “zero tolerance”. NBA referees are not letting players complain too long or too loudly about a referee’s call. A player who does can be given a technical foul (犯规). Two technical fouls, and the player is out of the game.The players do n’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it. They think it’s only natural to get angry during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you.But I like the “zero tolerance” rule and wish other sports would follow the NBA’s example. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if football, soccer and tennis players stopped arguing the calls and just played the gameThe biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good example to younger players. When kids see stars such as Rasheed Wallace of the Detroit Pistons shouting at the referees and arguing every call, they think it’s part of the game. But shouting at referees and arguing calls should never be part of any kid’s games. Kids should be taught to forget about the referees’ calls and pay attention to improving their skills and play their best.All players need to learn that you control only one thing in a game, and that’s your own performance. You can’t control what the other players or trainers do. And you certainly can’t control the calls the referees make.Finally, everyone from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds should remember that being a basketball referee is a hard job. The referee has to make dozens of sudden calls. No hesitation. No second chances. Not even the best referee gets every call right.Maybe if the players, trainers and fans who shout at the referees had to wear a whistle andV.书面表达2009年12月12日,你校在大操场举行了升旗仪式。

But there is a queue of people nearly reaching the door. Don’t worry --- in cyberworld (网络世界), lunch is just a few clicks away.“Shopping has never been easier. With just a single click o n your mouse (鼠标), whatever you order online can be delivered to your door in no time at all.” Said Bian Jing, 20, who recently took part in an online survival contest held in Beijing. Each competitor had to g o online and buy enough food and drink to last them for 100 h ours, using limited money.“I don’t want to spend too much time shopping so I do it online rather than in a normal store,” said Chang Haijiao, a Se nior 3 student at the Second High School Attached to Capital N ormal University. “It’s easy to find the thing you want on web sites as they have catalogues(目录).”Customers who go online can also find lower prices and a w ider choice of goods.But many teachers and parents are worried that online shop ping is becoming too popular.“It’s not a good way for high school students to spend th eir mon ey,” said a teacher at Chang’s school. “I don’t like t hem to shop online.”As students are still dependent upon their parents for mone y, it is said that they are not ready to take responsibility for payi ng for goods online. There is also the risk they will lose their mo ney at online stores that just want to cheat customers.Most parents, though, don’t want to pay the bill when thei r children overspend on the Internet. “I hate having to pay une xpected bills.” said one father. “But my son always surprises m e with them.”3.

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.A(2013·潍坊高三检测) Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons: a combination of savings, income, scholarships, and a modest amount of borrowing. Then her husband lost his job, and the plan fell apart.“I have two kids in college, and I want to say…come home‟, but at th e same time I want to provide them with a good education, ”says Jacobs.The Jacobs family did work out a solution: They asked and received more aid from the schools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amountthrough the federal loan(贷款)program. They will each graduate with $20, 000 of debt, but at least they will be able to finish school.With unemployment rising, financial aid administrators expect to hear from more families like the Jacobses. More students are applying for aid, and more families expect to need student loans. College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around.At the same time, tuition(学费)continues to rise. A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007, while average family income rose just 147%. Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade.“If we go on this way for another 25 years, we won‟t have an affordable system of higher education, ”says Patrick M. Callan, president of the center. “The middle class families have been financing it through debt. They will send kids to college whatever it takes, even if that means a huge amount of debt. ”Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them. The good news, however, is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing, and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted.56. According to Paragraph 1, why did the plan of the Jacobs family fail?A. The twins wasted too much money.B. The father was out of work.C. Their savings ran out.D. The family fell apart.57. How did the Jacobses manage to solve their problem?A. They asked their kids to come home.B. They borrowed $20, 000 from the schools.C. They encouraged their twin sons to do part-time jobs.D. They got help from the schools and the federal government.58. Financial aid administrators believe that.A. more families will face the same problem as the JacobsesB. the government will receive more letters of complaintC. college tuition fees will double soonD. America‟s unemployment will fall59. What can we learn about the middle class families from the text?A. They blamed the government for the tuition increase.B. Their income remained steady in the last decade.C. They will try their best to send kids to college.D. Their debts will be paid off within 25 years.60. According to the last paragraph, the government will.A. provide most students with scholarshipsB. dismiss some financial aid administratorsC. stop the companies from making student loansD. go on providing financial support for college studentsBFour out of ten women who diet end up heavier than when they started watchingtheir waistline(腰围), a study revealed today. The research also showed that a large percentage of women started noticing the pounds creepingback on just 21 days after reaching their ideal weight.Yesterday, Dr Ian Campbell of the Jenny CraigWeight Management Program said, “In the UK 61. 4percent of adults are overweight or obese. Successfulweight management requires a long-term commitment in order to lose weight successfully and for good. Dieting can be a real challenge so setting realistic goals and remaining focused on them is important. Otherwise as this research shows, women could end up heavier than when they started. ”The“Food, Body, Mind”report was publicized by Jenny Craig who quizzed 2, 000 women aged between 18 and 65 who diet regularly on their attitudes, beliefs and behaviors around weight loss. Six in ten said they were on a diet then and one in five women said they were on a“continuous diet”.It found the most common triggers to start dieting was seeing their“refle ction in the mirror”, preparing for a summer holiday or unflattering photos posted on social networking sites. Other popular reasons include comments by friends or relatives or their other half.However, the study showed that one in ten gave up within one day, while almost a fifth managed to make it to a week or more. The average is ten days. Many blamed pressure they put on themselves to lose weight too quickly for the weight gain, which leaves them with a bigger appetite than normal. Others blamed colleagues, who tuck into fatty lunches and snacks unaware of the effect it has on the dieter, whilemothers‟polishing off their children‟s leftovers(剩饭)was another common cause of weight gain.61. Which of the following might be the best title for this article?A. Three Reasons to Fail in DietingB. Important Things for Successful DietC. Obesity—a Problem for 61. 4% Adults in the UKD. Four in Ten Women Gain Weight on Diets62. Women who go on a diet.A. are all overweight or obeseB. are likely to gain weight again after reaching their ideal weightC. all fail because they are not persistent enoughD. all end up heavier than when they start to diet63. The underlined word“triggers”in Paragraph 4 probably means“”.A. effectsB. examplesC. causesD. imagination64. Which of the following is NOT the reason that many people quit dieting very soon?A. The pressure they put on themselves to lose weight quickly.B. Colleagues who give them fatty lunches and snacks.C. Reflections they see in the mirror.D. Leftovers of children‟s taken by their mothers.65. In which column of the newspaper do you probably find the passage?A. Health.B. Economy.C. Sports.D. Education.CPatti Page, the top-selling female artist of the 1950s withmore than 100 million records sold, died on January 1st, 2013,when she was 86. She was one of the most beloved singers of thepost-war era. Tak e her“Tennessee Waltz”for example; it soldmore than 10 million copies and was her biggest hit.Born in Claremore, Oklahoma, a small town near Tulsa, Page originally dreamed of a career in commercial art. Her first job in the art department at a local radio station soon led to performing on her own 15-minute program.At age 20, Page was discovered by big-band leader Jack Rael, who quit his job to become her manager. In 1948, she signed her first recording contract with Mercury Records and two years later enjoyed her first hit record. She stayed with Mercury for the next 14 years and recorded hit after hit including“With My Eyes Wide Open, I‟m Dreaming”and“Old Cape Cod”.Her last hit was“Hush. . . Hush, Sweet Charlotte”, recorded for the Bette Davis‟movie of the same name. And then, there was“Doggie in the Window”. The creative tune was a huge hit, but with its repeated barking sounds and silly lyrics(歌词), the song had been used by many people as an example of all that was wrong with pop music in the early 1950s.Throughout the 1950s, Patti Page made regular appearances on television variety shows and in 1957 she was chosen to host the musical progra m, “The Big Record”. The following year, Page appeared in her own CBS television series, “The Patti PageShow”. She continued to record and perform into the 21st century, most recently releasing an album of songs for children, a Christmas record, and a n ew“best of”collection.Besides music, Patti Page did a bit of acting. She co-starred with the Oscar-winning Burt Lancaster in“Elmer Gantry, ”and also starred on stage in the musical play“Annie Get Your Gun”.66. According to the passage, Patti Page.A. wanted to be a singer as a childB. was born in a small town in 1927C. was known mainly for her acting skillsD. started her work as a TV program hostess67. According to the passage, which one of her following recorded songs was criticized?A. “Old Cape Cod”B. “Hush. . . Hush, Sweet Charlotte”C. “Doggie in the Window”D. “With My Eyes Wide Open, I‟m Dreaming”68. The“Tennessee Waltz”is mentioned in the passage in order to show that.A. Patti Page was a beloved singerB. Patti Page‟s songs were successfulC. Patti Page was the top-selling female artistD. Patti Page was good at recording songs69. We can know from the passage that Patti Page.A. got to know Jack Rael in 1945B. left Mercury Records at the age of 35C. appeared in“The Patti Page Show”in 1957D. wrote many songs for children in her late life70. It is inferred from the passage that.A. Patti Page gave up singing in public in her late lifeB. Patti Page‟s gift in art began to be shown in her teensC. Patti Page‟s great success was due to others‟helpD. Patti Page was not only a successful singer but also a successful actressPartⅣWriting(45 marks)Section A(10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.In today‟s digital age, our lives have become filled with noise and distraction(分心)from emails, text messages, web media, televisions and radios, etc. so that we are forgetting how to be still and silent, and to find solitude, which is a state or quality of being alone or remote from others. Therefore it‟s difficult for us to mentally shut ourselves off, and then we‟re lacking attention toward our inner self.Actually, silence and solitude can benefit us greatly. For example, when we are silent and still, we can listen to our inner voice and hear our own spirit guiding us. We can dream and create in our mind, and we can receive messages through ourimagination and thoughts. In silence and solitude, we nourish(滋养)our soul, recharge our energy, and receive life-giving power.Then, how can we be still and silent in a life that we are so busy living? Well, when we have too many tasks to do, we react by engaging in some action which is an outward use of our energy. But if we remain silent and still and make time to think it over, we are strengthening our potential by keeping our energies within. So we‟ll have more outward power when we go inward first.Also we need to give ourselves permission for non-doing and make time to just feel content in that space, instead of feeling guilty that we should be doing something else, or serving someone who needs us. We must feel satisfied with the stillness and the moment of doing nothing.In addition, being still an d silent takes practice. Don‟t get impatient and set your intention on being still. We can sit or lie down, close our eyes, quiet our mind and slow our breath. We can do this almost anywhere.Title: Being still and being richSection B(10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.There are special moments which require you to congratulate the individual concerned. You can do different things to express your happiness at their achievements. But remember that planning a creative way to congratulate someone depends upon how well you know him/her, and what his/her achievements mean toyou.So, how can you say congratulations creatively? You can let balloons say it all for you. Just blow 15 balloons and paint them individually with the letters C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S respectively. Ask 15 different persons to hold it with the letters in front in order and captur e the surprised expression on your loved one‟s face. If you can‟t find 15 persons to hold those balloons for you, tie them on to something so that the letters on the balloons are visible.If you live apart from the person and wish to congratulate him/her, nothing can get more special than writing down a few congratulatory lines. It‟s significant that you select words that convey how happy you‟re for his/her achievements and tell him/her how proud you‟re about his/her success.Saying congratulations on air is also a creative way of putting your message across. There are various radio shows that allow pre-recorded greetings on air. So you can have your congratulations broadcast on the radio to catch the reaction of the person concerned.Gifts were, are, and always will be, a hit when it comes to congratulating people. If you intend to buy a gift for the person yourself, make sure you choose a sensible gift by taking his/her preference into consideration. The safest way is to gift a certificate and let him/her shop by himself/herself.Using any of these ideas and putting efforts into a simple wish will show how much that person‟s success means to you.81.

With special equipment, some scientists are studying the ways in which the mountain snow can be 52 , and with the help of a repeater station, they send the 53 data to the base station. The operator at the base station can get thedata at any time by 54 a button. In the near future, the forecast and use of water 55 probably depend on the advanced knowledge of snow on mountains, not of water underground.36.A.Using B.Holding C.Owning D.Finding 37.A.dry B.distant C.deserted D.wild 38.A.fine B.beautiful C.rich D.poor 39.A.unlawful B.unacceptable C.unpopular D.uncommon 40.A.made B.designed C.signed D.written 41.A.winners B.settlers C.fighters D.supporters 42.A.That B.

But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanns noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up (蜷伏)with me on the sofa and talk ,” said Mark . “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something, Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact , parents are first on the list .” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers . “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends firs t, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what theirchildren want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give theirchildren a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them .56.“The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son _______________.A.is always busy with his studies B.doesn’t wa nt to be disturbed C.keeps himself away from his parents D.begins to dislike his parents 57.What troubles Tina and Mark most is that __________.A.their daughter isn’t as lovely as beforeB.they can’t read their daughter’s mind exact lyC.they don’t know what to say to their daughterD.their daughter talks with them only when she needs help58.Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?A.Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.B.Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.C.Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.D.Teenagers talk little about their own lives.59.What can be learned from the passage?A.Parents are unhappy with their growing children.B.Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.C.Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.D.Parents should try to understand their teenagers.BHappy birthdayThe China National Opera(CNO) will give a concert to celebrate its 50th birthday.Different generations of CNO vocalists, like Li Guangxi, Yao Hong and Ma Mei, will present the concert which will feature both songs from famous Chinese operas like "The White-haired Girl" and "The Hundredth Bride", as well as arias(咏叹调)of such Western opera classics as "Madame Butterfly", "La Traviata" and "Rigoletto ".Time/date: 7: 30 pm, September 7, 8Location: Tianqiao TheatreTel: 6551 - 4787, 8315 - 6170 Tickets: 60 - 500 yuan (US $ -Folk musicA concert will be held to feature some recently composed traditional Chinese music works.The concert, given by the Folk Orchestra of the China Opera and Ballet Theatre, will include such pieces as "Memory of Childhood", "Memorial Ceremony for God" and "Wine Song".Time/date: 7: 30 pm, September 13Location: Concert Hall at the National Library of ChinaTel: 6848 - 5462, 6841 –9220 Tickets:30 - 200 yuan (US $ - )Moon musicA concert of traditional Chinese music will be given on the eve of the Moon Festival which falls on September 21st this year.The concert will feature a number of famous pieces centred on the theme of the moon, such as "Moonlight ", "Spring Night on a Moonlit River" and "Lofty Mountain and Flowing River."A number of established traditional Chinese music performers, like Zhou Yaokun and Fan Weiqing, will play solos as well as collaborate with the folk music orchestra.Time/date: 7:30 pm, September 21stLocation: Grand Theatre of the Cultural Palace of NationalitiesTel: 6606 - 8888, 6606 – 999960.

I believe he may have been captain in his senior year. He is a tough-looking guy, a hero in Columbus, a brave fighter in a red-and-gray uniform.One holiday season Jack and I had been at the F & R Lazarus department store downtown, and we saw, carrying a tall pile of boxes, someone who clearly was working in the Lazarus stockroom (仓库). It was Mike Ingram, post-Ohio State football player.We stared—how could we help it? And Mike Ingram stopped in his track, looked right back at us, and said, with bite in his tone: “ Yeah, it’s me.” Meaning: Go ahead and stare if you must.Couldn’t really blame him. There was nothing wrong with what he was doing--- he was earning some money in the stockroom. But he was out in the world now, he wasn’t where he had been when everything was bathed in sunlight; he was in Ohio Stadium, hearing the supporting shouts from 78,000 people who loved him and his teammates. He had moved past that first of life’s roles, as everyone does. It was his misfortune to have been famous very early; there must have been dozens and dozens of men in their twenties working in the Lazarus stockroom, but Mike Ingram was the one sure to attract curious passers, because he was no longer who he was supposed to be.68. When the writer met him in Lazarus, Mike was a __________.A. salesmanB. managerC. laborerD. customer69. By saying “how could we help it?” the writer means that __________.A. he and his friend just can’t force themselves not to look at MikeB. he wonders whether he and his friend can help MikeC. he and his friend can’t stop looking at each otherD. he and his friend can do nothing to stop Mike carrying the boxes70. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Mike used to be very popular when he played in the Ohio State football team.B. Many other people would stare at Mike like the writer when they run into him.C. Working as an ordinary worker, according to the writer, is Mike’s misfortune.D. Some people accept what life gives them.71. We can infer from the passage that when Mike was stared at, he looked __________.A. niceB. worriedC. shyD. unhappyEEven though she’s just 5 years old, Cindy Smart speaks five languages. She’s a good reader. She can tell time and do simple math, including multiplication and division. Cindy looks like an average doll, with long, blond hair, baby-blue eyes, and a button nose.But loaded with some devices, Cindy is the first doll that can see, think, and do as she’s told. The eagle-eyed Cindy follows in the path of other breakthrough toys like Sony’s barking RobotAibo, which was the first to popularize voice command in the late 1990s. Cindy takes Aibo’s innovations(创新) one step beyond: she not only follows instructions but also recognizes shapes, colors and words, and remembers. The effect is a doll that appears to be learning.The toy company which produced Cindy Smart spent a decade trying to see how much human nature it could breathe into an inanimate(无生命的) object. Its engineers began creating minibots that sense light, sounds, and pressure. However, without the sense of sight, their toys seemed to be lacking in one of the abilities that life-forms use to react to their environment.So how do the engineers make a doll actually see? In Cindy’s case, it’s a multistep process. When presented a text like “I love you” and asked “Can you read this?”Cindy identifies it as one of 70 preprogrammed commands. Then the inbuiltdigital camera scans a 15-degree radius in search of number- or letter-shaped objects. Buried in her stomach, Cindy’s 16-bit microprocessor compares the text with her database of 700 words. If it’s a match, “ I love you,” she says.72. This passage most likely appears in a _______________.A. medical reportB. classified adC. science journalD. music magazine73. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true about Robot Aibo?A. It could recognize shapes and colors.B. It could respond to spoken commandsC. It came onto the market no later than 1990D. It was created much later than Cindy Smart74. The underlined “ it ” in the third paragraph most likely refers to _____________.A. the processB. the objectC. the dollD. the company75. According to the passage, how can Cindy “ see ”?A. She recognizes any text as “I love you”B. She is equipped with a camera to search for textC. She is instructed by an engineer standing next to herD. She makes contact with the shapes of the text with her stomach第二卷及答卷第二卷非选择题(共35分)第四部分写作(共三节,满分35分)第一节:改写句子(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)把划线部分改写成一个从句或并列句,不能改变句子意思。
