He finished the race in 8 hours, 25 minutes and 16 seconds. The record-holder hit the wall at 22 miles, but bravely carried on for another 2 hours and finished in 3850th place, ahead of five other competitors.Born in India in 1911, Fauja Singh was a farmer but moved to Britain in the 1960s. Mr. Singh now lives in east England. He began running marathons when he was 89. This recent marathon was his ninth and he plans to keep running.He began running when he tragically lost his wife and son in a car accident. Running helped to give him a new focus on life. Now he runs to keep fit and healthy. Singh says that he does not feel old.Mr. Singh thinks that his success is because of curry, tea and “being happy”. He said: “The secret to a long and healthy life is not to worry too much. Be thankful for everything you have, stay away from people who are unhappy, stay smiling and keep running.”(17. T 18. F 19.

While it may sound impossible, it is exactly what is happening at a special restaurant in the city of Jinan, China.The Dalu Robot Restaurant, which opened its door on December 5th last year and can hold up to 100 customers at a time, is staffed with more than a dozen robots.The robots have different jobs acting as either entertainers, greeters, receptionists and servers. As customers enter the restaurant lined with shining neon lights, a female robot greets people with an electronic “welcome”. During the meal, customers are entertained by a dancing and talking robot. It looks like a model with a dress and lifts its arms around.Each robot has a motion sensor ordering it to stop movement if someone is in its way. This allows customers to reach out for dishes that are passing by on robots’ carts.杨浦区教师进修学院教研室保留版权初三模拟测试（2012）英语试卷第2页（共8页）As for the food? Well, it turns out that the robots don’t quite have the cooking skills yet. That is therefore done by human cooks, who can also be found instructing the robots in other parts of the restaurant.“Robots have a better service attitude than humans,” said a customer. “Humans sometimes are rude and impatient, but robots don’t feel tired, they just keep working and moving round and round the restaurant.”(24. hospitals 25.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)During my ninth-grade y ear, I suffered from ―anorexia nervosa‖. It was not enough to be thin. I had to be the thinnest. Now, however, fully recovered, I can reflect back and realize that my wishes were more complex than fitting into size five pants. Many of my hidden emotions were related to my relationship with my father. As I was growing up, his work always came first. Sometimes I would not see him for up to two weeks. Not only did he devote his whole self to his work, but he expected me to do the same (―You cannot get anywhere unless you go to the best universities!‖). Though, consciously, I never felt pressure to please him, I began dieting after the first time he told me I looked fat.At the time, all I knew was that I had to be thin — thinner than anyone else. Every month my father went to Europe for a week or so and on the days he left, sorrow and emptiness swallowed me: Daddy was leaving. Then, I turned to focus on a mysterious weakness — a helpless childlike emotion that came from starving. I liked to know that I needed to be taken care of; maybe Daddy would take care of me.Now, two years later and thirty-eight pounds heavier, I have come to realize that I cannot change my father‘s inability to express his feelings. Instead, I must accept myself. I know that I am a valuable person who struggles to achieve and accomplish. But I cannot struggle solely for others. By starving, I attempted to gain pride in myself by obtaining my father‘s approval or acknowledgment of my value as a person. But the primary approval must come from me, and I feel secure now that I can live with that knowledge safely locked in my mind.65.What is ―anorexia nervosa‖ as mentioned in the first line of the passage?A. It is a situation of feeling self-doubting.B. It is an inability to express one‘s feelings.C. It is someone who is emotionally unstable.D. It is an illness that makes one want to stop eating.66.Why did the writer suffer from anorexia nervosa?A. She was told by her father to take care of herself.B. She wanted to go to the best university.C. She wanted her father‘s attention.D. She grew up in a poor family.67.Which of the following statements is true about the writer?A. She has problems controlling her tempers.B. She is proud of herself for working hard to succeed.C. She has had great confidence in herself since childhood.D. She has changed her father‘s way of expressing himself.68.What‘s the writer‘s purpose of writing this passage?A. To blame her father.B. To report a case of child abuse.C. To reflect on a stage of growing up.D. To teach people how to lose weight.(B)The financial climate, the job market, family tensions, Obama moving into the Lincoln bedroom. Even the climate‘s ge tting in on the list. Yup, change is everywhere in these years.If you‘re not careful, all kinds of strange things might happen in your otherwise ordered life, so it‘s best to work at avoiding change whenever it rears its head (抬头).No, best to ignore it and carry on with what you‘re doing.69.The purpose of writing this passage is _____.A. to attract the reade rs‘ interest in change in these yearsB. to discuss whether people should change in these yearsC. to introduce ways to avoid change in these yearsD. to tell the readers the news of American President — Obama and others70.The underlined sentence ―You don‘t want to bite off more than you can chew‖ implies_____.A. there are some big challenges you can‘t fightB. you have big challenges to fightC. you are afraid of challenging some difficult tasksD. you are too small to eat too much food71.The best way of dealing with that little voice inside is _____.A. to change something at onceB. to have a chat with the speakerC. to discuss it with the trouble makerD. to ignore it and go on with what you are doing(C)People want action on noise, a recent public meeting in Brisbane showed. Some want technical improvements such as quieter air conditioners or better sound barriers around major roads. Others want tougher laws to restrict noise from building sites or to require owners to take responsibility for barking dogs. But the highest priority was a noise complaints system that works.Brisbane City Council receives more complaints about noise than all other problems put together. So it conducted a survey and found that about half its residents are upset by noise in one form or another — traffic, mowers, pool pumps, air conditioners or loud parties. This inspired the Council to bring together more than 100 citizens one evening to talk through a range of options.The meeting found the present regulatory system bizarre. Depending on the problem, responsibility for noise can lie with the Council, the Environment Protection Authority, one of three government departments or even the police. So complainants often feel they are getting the run-round. When the people at the forum were asked to vote for changes, the strongest response was for a 24-hour noise hotline to be the first port of call for all complaints.The forum also favored regulatory measures, such as tougher minimum standards for noise in appliances like air conditioners. This even makes economic sense, as noise is a waste of energy and money. Other measures the meeting supported were wider buffer (缓冲) zones around noisy activities and controls to keep heavy traffic away from residential areas.But there are obvious conflicts. Many people like to have a bar within walking distance if they feel like a drink, but they don‘t want a noisy pub keeping them awake when they want an early night. Most people want to live near a major road providing good access to other parts of the city, but they don‘t want the problem of road noise.Some were most interested by the proposals aimed at behavioral change. There was strong support for measures to reduce traffic: better public transport, cycleways and footpaths, even charges for road use. Many people optimistically thought industry awards for better equipment would stimulate the production of quieter appliances. It was even suggested that noise from building sites could be alleviated(减轻) if Brisbane adopted daylight saving, thus shifting the working day and providing longer, quieter evenings.72.According to the recent public meeting in Brisbane, what was the first step to take in order toreduce noise pollution?A. Produce quieter air conditioners.B. Provide better sound barriers around major roads.C. Establish a noise complaints system.D. Make stricter laws to require owners to take responsibility for barking dogs.73.It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A. the Brisbane residents were satisfied with the present noise regulatory systemB. many people in Brisbane preferred to live near a pub to which they have easy accessC. nearly all the inhabitants in Brisbane were bothered by noise in one form or anotherD. noise pollution is the most serious among pollution complaints in Brisbane74.Brisbane City Council brought together citizens to talk through solutions to the noiseproblem mainly due to _____.A. the result of the survey carried out by itselfB. a noise complaints system that worksC. people asking for tougher laws on noiseD. requirements of an effective noise complaints system75.How could noise from building sites be alleviated if Brisbane adopted daylight saving?A. If daylight saving was adopted, the daytime would be prolonged and the night wouldbecome quieter.B. If daylight saving was adopted, the working hours during the daytime would be shortenedwhile the night would be extended and thus quieter.C. If daylight saving was adopted, the night would be shortened and thus quieter.D. If daylight saving was adopted, both the daytime and the night would be shortened and thenoise would be reduced.Section CDirections: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.76.There is considerable variety in university classrooms in the United States. Because of diverse teaching methods and non-standardized curricula(课程), no two courses are the same. Undergraduate courses are considerable different from graduate courses. The classroom atmosphere in expensive, private universities may differ from that in community colleges, which are free and open to everyone.77.Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the student‘s oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures.78.Many teachers believe that the responsibility for learning lies with the student. If a long reading assignment is given, instructors expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or give an examination. (Courses are not designed merely for students to pass exams.) The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades.relationship at universities is characterized by trust. The honortests, Plagiarizing(抄袭) in written work, presentingprohibitedthe classroom can be cooperative or competitive.where grades are calculated in relation to other student‘s scores. Therefore, in classes where such a grading curve is used, students may be reluctant to share lecture notes or information for fear that their own grades will suffer.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.World Is Growing DarkerYou‘ve heard the term ―global warming‖, but having you heard about ―global dimming‖? As the earth has grown warmer during the last 50 years, it has also grown darker.In May, scientists from several countries gathered in Montreal to compare their measurements of the sun‘s radiation. During the last 50 years, the amount of sunshine reac hing the earth‘s surface has declined by roughly 10 percent, says Gerald Stanhill, a retired scientist who worked at the Israeli Agriculture Ministry.Global warming and global dimming seem to have the same cause: air pollution. Most scientists agree that the invisible greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), released into the air by cars and industry, have warmed the atmosphere. A warmer atmosphere, in turn, holds more water vapor in the form of thicker clouds, which block more sunlight, says Beate Liepert, an atmospheric scientist at Columbia University.Another form of air pollution is adding to the effect. Tiny particles(颗粒) of soot(煤烟) spewed into the atmosphere help water condense into droplets, forming denser clouds. The soot also reflects sunlight back into space or absorbs it before it reaches the ground.Scientists use radiometers (辐射计) to measure the amount of sunlight striking the earth. One type of radiometer is a black plate covered by a glass dome. The temperature of the plate indicates how much sunlight is falling on it. Hundreds of radiometers around the world have been measuring sunshine since the 1950s.The measurements have varied from place to place. Sunlight in Hong Kong, for example, has decreased by 37 percent.How has global dimming affected life on the earth? No one is sure. It could be offsetting global warming. It could also be affecting the productivity of plant life, which depends on sunshine for growth.―There could be a big gorilla sitting on the dining table, and we didn‘t know about it,‖ Veerabhadran Ramanathan, a scientist at the University of California, told the New York Times. ―There are many, many issues that it raises.‖(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statement in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81.―Global dimming‖ of the earth is featured by _____.82.Why is ―global dimming‖ caused by air poll ution according to the passage?83.Tiny particles of soot add to global dimming mainly because they _____.84.What does the sentence ―There could be a big gorilla sitting on the dining table, and wedidn‘t know about it‖ in the last paragraph mean?第II卷（共45分）I.

Since the advent (来临) of World Wide Web, many minority 42，those spoken by single nations or ethnic groups, have enjoyed a dramatic upsurge(急剧上升)in vitality. Many such tongues were 43 endangered just a decade ago. Late-century mobility and economic currents were taking more and more speakers out of their communities and away from fellow speakers. Languages were 44 at an alarming rate.Like biological extinction, linguistic extinction is a serious loss for all of humankind. Languages are some of the 45 ways people maintain their culture and are crucial to understanding other cultures. When fewer and fewer people share a 46 language, it may die, and when it does, part of our collective human culture dies with it．Surprisingly, though, the Internet has become a valuable tool for 47 endangered languages. Speakers of these languages not only have been particularly active in putting up web pages in their various languages, but also in mounting (配置) 48 effective, large-scale dictionary and language-learning projects online. There is no reason why minority languages cannot live together with a common social language like English. Indeed, the Internet offers more hope for their 49than they have ever known before, especially as translation tools become more effective.III. Reading ComprehensionSection AThe past 20 years have produced great advances in technology and communications. 50, people throughout the world have become ever more connected. The 51link between the nations and people of the world is called globalization. It is a 52that has changed ways oflife around the world.Perhaps the biggest change in this process is the effect of globalization on commerce. In an effort to build a 53economy, most nations of the world have embraced (拥抱) free trade. Free trade removes certain limits imposed (强加) on global commerce to make it easier for nations to exchange goods with one another. A 54aim of this process is to aid poor nations and thus reduce 55. Globalization has indeed increased trade throughout the world, but experts disagree about its effect on the poor.The debate about recent trends in global commerce is complex. Those 56free trade in the global market point out that competition lowers prices. Its critics argue that, without controls, such a system often harms poor nations. To some extent, both are 57. For example, in Jamaica, a country which imported milk from the United States and the 58milk was cheaper than local milk, more poor people could drink milk and improve their nutrition. At the same time, the cheaper milk put 59dairy farmers out of business. Perhaps this program caused as much harm as 60.Those who support free trade in the global market do so for a number of reasons. Studies show that when a poor nation begins trading on the global level, it gains certain61. Its economy grows rapidly. Multinational companies set up factories, 62jobs for people. Supporters claim that these factors reduce poverty and lessen the gap between the richest and poorest nations. They believe that the globalizing trend benefits the poor.Critics of unrestricted free trade question these conclusions. Although they 63that the global market can offer growth and jobs to poor nations, they doubt that it reduces poverty. In fact, they cite (引述) studies which show that poverty has increased as a result of the global market.64, the gap between rich and poor nations is growing.Regardless of which side they are on, most experts believe that globalization has great potential to aid the poor. Both sides need to find a way to make it work.50. A. In conclusion B. In particular C. As a result D. On the contrary51. A. growing B. starting C. moving D. reducing52.

On averageSection B(A)Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict,” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work wi th me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes --- khaki pants and sports shirt --- to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees h as really become an everyday thing.” said business consultant Maisly Jones.Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative (保守的) dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers say that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale (士气). Only 4 percent of employers say that casual dress has a negative impact on productivity. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”65. David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict,” because ______.A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB. he couldn’t stand a clean appearanceC. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeD. he didn’t want to spend much m oney on clothes66. David Smith wears casual clothes now, because ______.A. they make him feel at ease when workingB. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC. he looks attractive in casual clothesD. he no longer works in that company67. According to this passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Company workers started to dress down at work about twenty years ago.B. Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s.C. “Dress-down Friday” was first given as a favor from employers.D. Many workers want to wear casual clothes to attract people.68. In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned in the passage except ______.A. saving employees’ moneyB. making employees more attractiveC. improving employees’ motivationD. making employees happier (B)The prestigious(享有声望的)Nobel prizes were announced in twin ceremonies in Stockholm and Oslo. Here is a look at this year’s winners and tr work.69. We can know from the passage that ______.A. The Time of the Hero was widely acceptedB.Mario Vargas Llosa only has a gift for novelsC. Mario Vargas Llosa ran for president of PeruD. The Time of the Hero was based on some officers’ experiences70. The technology of test-tube baby _______.A. is a breakthrough in medicine but now out-datedB. helps Robert Edwardswin the Nobel Prize in physiologyC. has led to 4 million babies’ coming into the worldD. is linked to human egg removal and fertilizationin a human body71. We can conclude from the passage that ______.A. the 2010 Nobel Chemistry Prize winners bring benefits to all aspects of lifeB. palladium-catalyzed reactions are widely used in drugs for fighting diseasesC. The two Russian scientists have published their book Detectors of Carbon’s New FaceD. the amazing discovery of grapheme has been known to all for a long time(C)There are a couple of ways to forecast the destructive potential of a hurricane (飓风) so that people in the way can take adequate precautions (预防措施). Satellite images of cloud patternscan be analyzed to estimate peak wind speeds, but the estimates are often way off the mark. Specialized aircraft can fly into a storm to measure the winds directly, but the flights are costly.Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology come up with a third way: listening to a storm underwater.In a paper to be published in Geophysical Research Letters, Nicholas C. Makris and a former graduate student, Joshua D. Wilson, report a strong connection between the intensity (强度) of sound recorded by an undersea microphone in the mid-Atlantic and the wind power of a hurricane that passed over it. They say that such microphones, known as hydrophones, could be a safe and relatively inexpensive means of estimating hurricane force.Dr. Makris and Dr. Wilson, who are now with Applied Physical Sciences Corporation, worked out the theory of underwater acoustic (声音的) monitoring of storms in a 2005 paper. “To be very frank with you, it’s a mystery what makes storms noisy underwater.” Dr. Makris said. The most popular idea currently is that it has something to do with oscillating air bubbles (气泡振动).The researchers then went looking for experimental data to back their theory, and found it from a hydrophone placed at a depth of 2,500 feet by the National Atmospheric and Oceanic Administration. It happened that Hurricane Gert passed over the area in September 1999, and a hurricane-hunter plane directly measured the wind speed at the same time. The hydrophone data showed sound intensity rising when the storm’s outside wind “wall” passed over, and again when the inside wall, the most destructive part of the storm near the eye, passed over. “We got a beautiful connection,” Dr. Makris said, “between the hydrophone data and the actual wind speeds a s measured by the aircraft.”Dr. Makris is conducting additional experiments, working with the Mexican Navy off th e west coast of Mexico. The eventual goal, he said, would be permanent hydrophones in known hurricane zones or temporary ones that could be easily laid by plane or ship in the path of a coming storm.72. Compared with the traditional methods, the new way of measuring is_____.A. more expensiveB. more directC. less dangerousD. less accurate73. Which statement is WRONG according to the article?A. The scientists gained support from different fields.B. Dr. Makris and Dr. Wilson have figured out what makes storms noisy underwater.C. The scientists have found the relationship between the changes of sound intensity and the force of the hurricane.D. There are several ways for people to forecast the force of the coming hurricane.74. Why is Dr. Makris now making other experiments with the help of the Mexican Navy off the west coast of Mexico?A. To place permanent hydrophones in some zones.B. To collect more images of cloud patterns.C. To be secure in carrying out their experiments.D. To get more information from the hurricane-hunter planes.75. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Waysto Stop the Destructive Force of a HurricaneB. Connection between the Intensity of Sound and the Wind Power of a HurricaneC. Hydrophones, Safe but Expensive Means of Estimating Hurricane ForceD. Measuring a Hurricane by Sound UnderwaterSection C76.__________Today, the Internet is in a few cars; tomorrow, broadband (宽带) will be in all of them.

Then the waste will be pure water.79.__________You’ll use the voice control: “Make it a bit cooler” or “find me country music”. Lighter, more reliable electronic controls replace mechanical controls.

The car will travel with one side higher than the other when turning, just as an airplane does now.80.__________Cars will avoid some accidents by maintaining safe following distances, and by sensing sleepy or drunk drivers. Air bags will adapt for every passenger according to their size, weight, and position in case accidents happen.Section DFrom bankers to factory staff, employees in the west face the bleak prospect (暗淡的前景) of losing their jobs as a global recession (衰退) starts to bite. For colleagues in the East the pain is more likely to come through a pay cut.Human resource experts say cultural differences explain why Asian firms try harder to keep jobs in difficult times, which will stop unemployment and may help keep Asian economies afloat at a time of slowing exports.The East Asian attitude may also make it easier for firms to recover quickly from the economic downturn since they will not need to rehire or train new staff, leaving some experts predicting Western shift to Eastern flexibility.“In the Confucian (儒家的) attitude, the right thing to do is to share the burden. There is the sense of collective responsibility whereas (然而) in the West, it’s more about the individual survival,” said Michael Benotlel, associated professor of organizational behavior at Sing apore Management University.Steven Pang, Asian Regional Director for Aquent, a headhunting firm, said in many East Asian companies there was a responsibility “ to take care of the members of the family and go through the pain together” even if that meant causing losses.US firms from General Motors to Goldman Sachs plan to lay off workers by the thousand. But at the Asian units of Western multinationals, job cuts will probably be less severe.Japan’s jobless rate was 4 percent in September, up from 3.8 per cent in January, while Hong Kong’s was flat at 3.4 percent. But US unemployment is expected to have jumped to 6.3 percent last month from below 5 percent in January.Experts say that while there are noticeable differences in labor practices in East and West, the gap will narrow as more firms become more multinational and competition forces firms to adopt the best practices of rivals (对手) from abroad.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS)81. What caused the different practices of Asian and Western firms facing the global recession?82. Why is it easier for the East Asian firms to recover quickly from the economic downturn?83. Firms in the west would lay off workers when facing a bleak prospect because of ______.84. ______ will make the differences in East and West less noticeable.第II卷I. Translation1、她的责任心值得称道。

Before that, most kids were taught what they needed to learn at home.When you learn reading, math, and other subjects taught in school from your parents or private teachers who come to your house, it's called homeschooling. A kid may be the only one, or he or she may be taught with brothers, sisters, or kids from the neighborhood.Parents choose to home school their children for many different reasons. Sometimes a kid is sick and can't go to regular school. But more often, kids are homeschooled because their parents feel they can give their child a better education than the local school can.You might wonder if kids have to go to school. It's true that kids must be educated, but the law allows the kids to be schooled at home. In fact, more than 1.3 million students do it in the USA alone. These kids can learn just as much as they do in regular schools, but their parents are in charge of their education.Homeschool parents must make sure that their kids get the instruction and the experiences they need. The parents also may have to write a report every year to explain to the government who's teaching the kid and which subjects are being taught at home.(24. 1635 25. math 26. sick 27. local 28. 1.3 29. law 30. report ) Part 2II. 31.

On New Year's Day, when Tom was 15, his father asked him to work on the farm for one year in his free time. Tom was not happy with his father's idea. "That isn't my job. I have too much schoolwork to do." When his father heard this. he said, "I promise to give you anything you want if you can finish one year's work." Tom thought for a moment and agreed.On the first Saturday, the boy got up early and worked hard until evening, just like any other farmer. Time passed quickly. Tom's crops grew well. On the last day of the year, the father called his son to him, "I'm happy to see that you have worked very hard this year," said the father. "Now, tell me what you want.”The boy smiled and showed his father a big piece of bread. He made it from the wheat he worked so hard to grow. "I've already got the best thing. No pain, no gain. I think this is what you wanted me to know." His father was very happy to hear that.(17. F 18. T 19. F 20. T 21. F 22. F 23. T)D. Listen to the passage and complete the following sentences 4These days, most people in Britain and the US do not dress formally. But sometimes it is important to wear the right things.Many British people don't think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas, and concerts you can put on what you like from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.But in Britain, as Well as in the US, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses or skirts(not trousers). Doctors, lawyers, and business people wear formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women wear tidy dresses.In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are careful with their clothes. At home, or on holidays, most Americans wear informal or sports clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes.It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the US, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then dress the same. You will feel more comfortable if you don't look too different from everyone else.(24. right 25. comfortable 26. themselves 27. concerts 28. Doctors 29. less 30. Watch)Part.2II.

Listen to the passage and tell whether the following statements are true or falseThe story of Harry Potter happened in an ancient castle, so many teenagers dream about living in an ancient castle. These dreams may include beautiful silk dresses, delicious food, servants and of course, magic. However, real life in an English castle was not easy. With thick stonewalls and high towers, castles were noisy places with an unpleasant smell. Horses, cows, chickens and sheep walked free. Soldiers practiced sword fights every day. And children of all ages played around them. Castles did not have central heating; the only heat came from the fireplace. Even in summer the castle was cool. People living in the castle had to use blankets to keep warm while at work.Life during the Middle Ages began at sunrise. Servants lit the fire, swept the floor and cooked the morning meal. After dinner, everyone continued his or her work. the owners of the castle sometimes took his guests hunting or shooting. His wife spent much of the day watching the servants work, as well as cooks working in the kitchen. Supper was simple and eaten late, just before bedtime.You may find some old magic books in a castle as Harry Potter once did. Read them before you go to bed, because when you fall asleep , the magic of castle life may appear before your eyes.(17. T 18. F 19. F 20. T 21. F 22. F 23. T)D.

It was really different from my school in China. Girls wore grey skirts and white shirts, boys wore grey trousers, and everyone wore the school tie. Some of Sam's lessons Were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were various old-fashioned words like "thou" and "thee" to mean "you". In history lessons, we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names! Classes were also a lot more relaxing and active than in China. Male teachers were called "sir" and female teachers "miss" out of respect, but everyone shouted out and waved their hands in lessons. It was more like a debate than a class.

"I saw the robber," Harry told the policemen. "I can describe him. He was about fifty years old. He was bald with a big, red nose and thick lips. And he had big ears. He was quite tall and thin. He had something wrong with his right leg.""How do you know that?" one of the policemen asked Harry."He limped," Harry said."What was he wearing?" the other policeman asked.Harry told the policeman that the man was wearing black jeans and a shirt. "His mask was a lady's stocking. His shoes were white sports shoes." Harry added."You are a very careful boy," the policeman said. "Well done!"The next day the police caught the robber. They put him in a line with some other men. They asked Harry to point him out, Harry did this easily. The police arrested the man.(17. F 18. T 19. T 20. F 21. T 22. F 23. T)D. Listen to the dialogue and complete the following sentencesPRESENTER: Tell ,us about your new hook, Penny.PENNY: Well, it's another Captain Fish-Eye story for young children, about 6 years old. I enjoy writing about all Captain Fish-Eye's adventures at sea, and children love him and his amazing ship.PRESENTER: They don't feel it's boring to read the same stories again and again, do they?PENNY: No, never.PRESENTER: What type of books do young children enjoy most?PENNY: Young children really like funny stories--anything to make them laugh. And the pictures are very important too. Young children need books with bright colourful pictures.PRESENTER: You know, Walt Disney has made many famous fairy-stories into wonderful films. Is it better for children to see the films or to read the books? PENNY: I have to say, books are better. Of course, it's nice to see a happy children's film sometimes, but it isn't as good as reading a book. When children read stories, they see pictures in their heads and they use their minds much more. It's veryimportant for them to do this when they're young.PRESENTER: I've heard that children in Britain read a lot of books. They read much more than children in many other countries. Do you know why?PENNY: Well, I think it's because British parents have always read to their children a lot. In most families, children listen to a story every evening before they go to sleep, and at school teachers read to their classes. Children learn to love books and want to read more and more.(24. 6/six 25. ship 26. same 27. bright 28. heads 29. Britain 30. sleep)Part 2II. 31. C 32. C 33. A 34. C 35. B 36. B 37. D 38. B 39. C 40.
