So when Florence Nightingale told her wealthy parents that she planned to become a nurse, they were very upset. What they want her to do was to learn to host big parties, serve tea, and later got married. Florence, however, had her own plans.In 1846, a friend sent Florence a book about a German school, which trained girls to care for the sick. Several years later, against her parents’wishes, Florence entered the school and completed nursing course. In 1853, she was offered a position in London, in charge of an institution that cared for the sick. There, she made many changed in improving the care of the sick.The Crimean War broke out in 1854. Conditions in the military hospitals were terrible, so the British Secretary of War assigned Florence to introduce female nurses into the military hospitals in Turkey. She took 38 nurses and they saved thousands of lives. She returned to England a heroine and she went on to establish the Nightingale Training School for nurses.To show respect to Florence’s efforts, Queen Victoria awarded Nightingale the Royal Red Cross in 1883. In spite of others’ objections, Florence followed her heart. As a result, she founded modern nursing and worked tirelessly for sanitary reforms in hospitals.56. What did Florence’s parents most probably want her to become in the future?A. A doctor.B. A housewife.C. A secretary.D. A heroine.57. When did Florence’s career probably begin?A. In 1846.B. In 1883.C. In 1854.D. In 1853.58. What is true about Florence?A. A book given by her friend encouraged her to take up nursing as her career.B. She went to the Crimean War to become a heroine in spite of others’ objections.C. She changed her parents’ minds and entered a German nursing school.D. She was unfortunately infected with an illness herself during the war.(B)In a world with limited land, water and other natural resources (资源), the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise. Actually, the past decades has seen more and more forests disappearing and globe becoming increasingly warm. People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的) ways. That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products. In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries. According to a recent study, the global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decades. China, for example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution. It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains. In addition, we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil (棕榈油), which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest. In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.Governments can fully develop the potential of these new markets. First, they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions (排放) and targets for saving and reusing energy. Besides, stronger arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally, governments can avoid the huge expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction, and redirecting some of those expenses can accelerate the change from traditional model to a sustainable one.The major challenge of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of growing population within the limits if this single planet. That is no small task, but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.59. The traditional business model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPT that ______.A. It makes the world warmerB. it consumes natural resourcesC. it brings severe damage to forestsD. it makes growth hard to continue60. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. China lacks wind and solar energy.B. China is the leader of the low-carbon market.C. High-speed trains are a low-carbon development.D. Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.61. To fully develop the low-carbon markets, governments can ______.A. cut public expensesB. forbid carbon emissionC. develop public resourcesD. encourage energy conservation62. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To introduce a new business model.B. To compare two business models.C. To predict a change of the global market.D. To advocate sustainable development.Section C(8分)Directions:Choose from the sentences A—F to complete the passage. There are two extra sentences which you do not need to use.Stone Soup is an international magazine. 63. ________ Although the magazine is based in the United States, and most of the writing is by American children, we also publish the writing by children from across the world.Twenty-two years ago, my colleague Gerry and I started Stone Soup, along with a group of fellow university students. 64. ________ Our magazine is for the kind of writing that exists on the borderland between fiction and nonfiction. We look for novels based on experiences of life that are so real that we wonder whether the stories are true or not.Stone Soup is also a magazine of the arts. We draw on child artists from all over the world to show their arts in the magazine. Over the years our interest in children’s art has grown. In addition to publishing children’s art, we have built one of the finest collections of children’s art in the United States. 65. ________ We have also operated an after-school art school in which 150 children attend each week.66. ________ It includes the magazine, our museum programme and our art school. While the Children’s Art Foundation is a nonprofit organization, we operate it like a business. We have never received grants or donations. In fact, we believe that grants are often more of a problem for organizations than a benefit.A. Different magazines are designed for different readers.B. Its articles are written by English-speaking children up to age 13.C. Stone Soup was very popular at the very beginning.D. They are of great value.E. Our organization, the Children’s Art Foundation, is an integrated project.F. Now it has over 1,000 works from 40 countries.第Ⅱ卷(共23分)I. Translation (13分前每题3分最后一题4分)Directions:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.67. 为了避免困惑,我向她清楚地解释了我真正的目的。

Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage (抵押贷款), or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. I got the job because the people who run thefirm knew I had already written some programs, he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working. Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school, he said. But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway. David added:I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement is a possibility. You never know when the market might die away.1.

We asked a few old friends to dinner.Like most elderly people, I suppose, we spent most of the evening talking about old times. Thirty years ago, the village used to be a quiet place. Now it has changed. Every Sunday hundreds of cars pass through the village at what I think a dangerous speed. They make the village almost as noisy as the streets of a large town. As a boy I enjoyed riding on the backs of the farm horses. Things are different now. Today there are very few horses working on the farms. The farm workers today drive tractors, not horses. A man is not of much use on a farm unless he knows all about machines. Now almost every house in the village has a TV set . Is it a good thing for children to spend the evening sitting in front of a TV set? When I was young I did not waste my time indoors. I would spendthe long summer evenings outdoors. I would play with my friends, go fishing or walk by the river. When my grandchildren asked me the reason why I havent bought a TV set, I tell them there are many books I still want to read. I cant find time for both reading and watching TV.8. The old like to talk about _______.A. themselvesB. othersC. the pastD. nothing9.

They say that people are feeding the birds, which makes them fat. The pigeons get bigger because their normal diet would consist of seeds and insects, not high-fat junk food they are eating in the city centre.The council want people to know that everyone who feeds the pigeons is responsible for the streets being so crowded with these birds. They hope to encourage the birds to move away from the city centre and into parks and open spaces.Ten robotic birds have been brought into the city centre to scare the pigeons away and visitors are asked not to give the pigeons any food. The mechanical birds - known as robops - will sit on the roofs of buildings. They can be moved around to different locations. They look like a peregrine falcon, which is a bird that kills pigeons. They even make noises and flap their wings to scare the pigeons. They hope that the pigeons will go away before the city becomes the European Capital of Culture in two years.12.Pigeons in Liverpool get fat because they eat ________ .A.birdsB.seedsC.insectsD.high-fat junk food13.What do Liverpool city council try to do?A.They want the pigeons to move out of the city centre.B.They want people to feed the pigeons with healthy food.C.They want people to keep the pigeons at home.D.They want to keep robotic birds instead of pigeons.14.The robotic birds are used to _________.A.make the city colorfulB.drive away the pigeonsC.help feed the pigeonsD.show people directions15.This passage is most probably a(n) __________.A.noticeB.news reportC.short storyD.advertisement第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

In much of the United States, winter means the return of snow.Snow is a form of frozen water. It contains many groups or very small ice particles called snow crystals(晶体). These crystals grow from water particles in cold clouds. They usually grow around a piece of dust. All snow crystals have six sides, but they grow in different shapes. The shape depends mainly on the temperature and water levels in the air. The shape of a snow crystal may change from one form to another as the crystal passes through levels of air with different temperatures. Snow contains much less water than rain. About seventy-five centimeters of snow has as much water as two and a half centimeters of rain.Generally, the color of snow and ice appears white. This is because the light we see from the sun is white. Most natural materials take in some sunlight. However, when light travels from air to snow, some light is sent back, or reflected(反射). Snow crystals have many surfaces to reflect sunlight. It is this light that gives snow its white color.Much of the water we use comes from snow. Melting snow gives water to rivers and crops. Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wildanimals from the cold. Fresh snow is made largely of air which is kept among the snow crystals. Because the air has trouble moving, the movement of heat is greatly reduced. However, snow is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people in the United States every year. Many people die in traffic accidents on roads that are covered with snow or ice.28. In the center of a snow crystal there is .A. airB.dustC. waterD. sunlight29. If fifteen centimeters of snow completely melts, the height of water will be .A. 0.5 centimeterB. 1 centimeterC. 1.5 centimetersD. 15centimeters30. According to the text, snow looks white because .A. snow is actually whiteB. the ice particles are whiteC. here is a lot of air in the snowD. the reflection of light makes it look white31.How can snow protect plants from the cold?A. Snow gives them much heat.B. Snow turns into water and waters them.C. Snow makes them keep moving .D. Snow contains air which has trouble moving.DThe worlds native languages are dying out at an unprecedented(空前的) rate, taking with them irreplaceable(不能替代的) knowledge about thenatural world, according to a new study.The study identified five global hot spots where languages are vanishing faster than anywhere else ---- eastern Siberia, northern Australia, central South America, the US state of Oklahoma and the US Pacific Northwest. Languages are suffering a global extinction crisis that greatly goes beyond the pace of species extinction, linguistics(语言学的) professor David Harrison noted, who said half of the worlds 7,000 languages were expected to disappear before the end of the century.Native people had an intimate(详尽的) knowledge of their environment that was lost when their language disappeared, along with other certain things often unfamiliar to us, Harrison stressed. Most of what we know about species and ecosystems is not written down anywhere, its only in peoples heads, he said. We are seeing in front of our eyes the loss of the human knowledge base.Harrison was one of a team of linguists who carried out the study. The researchers traveled to Australia this year to study native languages, some of the most endangered. According to Harrison, in Australia, they were heartened to see a woman in her 80s who was one of the only three remaining speakers of the Yawuru language passing on her knowledge to schoolchildren. He said such inter-generational exchanges were the only way native languages could survive. The children had elected to take this course, no one forced them, he said. When we asked them why they werelearning it, they said,This is a dying language, we need to learn it. Also, while there they found a man with knowledge of the Amurdag language, which had previously been thought extinct.The researchers said all five of the hot spots identified were areas that had been successfully colonized and where a dominant language such as Spanish or English was threatening native tongues.32.What does this text mainly talk about?A.The knowledge of native languages.B.A study on native languages endangered.C.Peoples efforts in saving native languages.D.Harrison and his study on languages.33.The underlined wordvanishingin the second paragraph can be best replaced by .A.developingB.changingC.increasingD.disappearing34.According to Harrison, language extinction .A.results in lots of worriesB.speeds up the pace of species extinctionC.threatens the existing of Spanish and EnglishD.brings about a loss of knowledge about the environment35.According to the text, native languages were endangered partly because of .A.few researches done on themB.the small population of native peopleC.the strong influence of ruling languagesD.little education native people receive at school[MVC:PAGE]三、七选五(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Fo r each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information give n in the passage you have just read.(A)Being a normal, healthy nineteen-year-old, Rhona was in the habit of falling asleep the moment her h ead touched her pillow and not wakening up again until her m other called her at seven-thirty.When she awoke that morning in the grey light of early dawn, she had no idea what had disturbed her. Then she imagined, or thought she imagined, a faint smell of smoke around her n ostrils (鼻孔). What was strange, though, was the very fact that she was wide awake and, according to her bedside clock, it was only a quarter to four.She sat up, listening, alert. There was definitely a smell of b urning. Rising quickly, she crossed to the window and opened it quietly, thinking it would be the remains of some garden bo nfire. But it wasn’t. She saw smoke and flames billowing out o f a downstairs window next door.Barefoot and in pyjamas, she ran first to her parents’ room, opening their door to call, “Mum! Dad! There’s a fire next door !”Downstairs in a flash, she hurriedly dialed 999 and gave he r name and address in clear, brief tones. By the time she had finished, Graeme, her elder brother, was coming running dow nstairs.“You go to their front door—I’ll go to the back,” she said to him.As she banged on their neighbors’ back door, she could he ar a child crying in fear. Without stopping to think, Rhona lifted the large doorstop and smashed it through a glass panel, puther hand in and turned the key which opened the door.Through the smoke she saw a drying screen hung with whit e washing and she grabbed at as many of the damp(湿的) clothes as she could on her way past towards the stairs. Halfway up she met Mr Parker carrying the baby and she hurr iedly gave him some wet towels before doing the same for Mr s Parker who was behind him leading two-year-old Clare by the hand.“Crouch down as low as you can,” Rhona directed them as she took the child’s other hand. Within a matter of seconds th e family was safely outside.56. Rhona woke up early in the morning because_________.A. her mother called her for an emergencyB. she heard a baby crying in fear downstairsC. she smelt something burning in the airD. the alarm clock rang as she set it57. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passa ge?A. Rhona, together with her brother, Graeme, went to the Par kers’ rescue.B. The Parkers escaped from the burning house together.C. Rhona broke into the house by back door after smashing t he glass panel.D. Rhona covered her mouth with the damp clothes before en tering the Parkers’.58. According to the article, Rhona can be best described as _________.A. alert and timidB. courageous and stressedC. panic(恐慌) and sympathetic(有同情心的)D. decisive and responsive59. It can be inferred that when the fire broke out, ______ ___.A. The Parkers were at a loss what to doB. Rhona had a good knowledge of survival skillsC. Rhona showed the Parkers a safe fire escapeD. Rhona’s parents helped to save the scared children (B)Secrets to a Longer Life1. ExerciseStudies show that 30 minutes of mild exercise a day will incre ase your life span. This doesn't mean you have to run three m iles or start high jumping. Simple activities such as walking, g ardening or taking exercise classes will work.2. Enjoy peopleContacts with family and friends help fight life-sapping depression and stress. Studies show that people w h o socialize regularly live longer than loners. Interact daily with family members and friends. If you are isolated, make a point of joining social clubs or church g roups so you can laugh and share life's joys.3. Stay mentally activeThis is very important—use it or lose it! People who allow their mental faculties to decl ine run the risk of shortening their lives through falls and other injuries, and not being able to take care of themselves. Read the newspaper, visit the public library, balance your checkboo k without a calculator, and exercise your brain by doing cross word puzzles.4. DietThe key words are "high-fiber, low-fat". Cut back on red meat, salt, white flour, white sugar, alcoh ol and coffee. Start eating a balanced diet including lots of frui t, grains, raw vegetables and nuts.5. Positive attitudeBy approaching life with an upbeat, positive outlook you i ncrease your chances of living longer. Stay optimistic—always search for the silver lining. Studies show people who s ee life as an enjoyable challenge, rather than a constant trial, cope better and prolong their life spans.6. Medication mixAs we age, we are more likely to take medications. Som etimes this leads to over-medication, which can be disabling and even deadly. Ask you r doctor if the drugs you take are really necessary. Make sure there is no danger of a bad drug interaction from your medicat ions. Used correctly, medicines can help you live longer and mo re comfortably.7. VolunteerHelping others increases your self-esteem and makes you feel like a valuable contributor.60. People who don’t stay mentally active are more likely to _____________.A. become ignorantB. lose their mindsC. shorten their livesD. become slow in mo vement61. The underlined phrase “sliver lining” can be replaced with _______________A. something made of silverB. new informationC. good aspectsD. long life span62. Which of the following is correct about medication?A. Appropriate medication is necessary.B. Medication is always helpful to you.C. Doctors suggest taking expensive medicines.D. Drugs are unnecessary because of side-effects.(C)Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn(打哈欠) and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it’s because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that ever y time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate(模仿) it,whether or not we actually perform the same action. This expl ains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, danc e or play sports. But the idea goes further:mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, th ey also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we u nderstand other people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use lan guages, and to understand how other people feel. Researcher s have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language.A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people se ntences to listen to (for example: “The hand took hold of the b all”), the same mirror neurons were triggered when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold o f a ball).Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behaviour. Much research suggests that people with soc ial and behavioural problems have mirror neurons which are n ot fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how t hese discoveries might help find treatments for social disorder s.Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with evermore information concerning how humans behave and interac t (互动). Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物) for neuroscience of what Einstein’s theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in th e cinema when someone else does—well,perhaps you’ll understand why.63. Mirror neurons can explain _________.A. why we cry when we are hurtB. why we cough when we suffer from a coldC. why we smile when we see someone else smileD. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late64. The underlined word “triggered” in the third paragraph pro bably means “_________”.A. set offB. cut offC. built upD. broken up65. We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons _____ ____.A. relate to human behaviour and interactionB. control human physical actions and feelingsC. result in bad behaviour and social disordersD. determine our knowledge and language abilities 66.What is the passage mainly about?A. Ways to find mirror neurons.B. Problems of mirror neurons.C. Existence of mirror neurons.D. Functions of mirror neurons.Section C (4×2=8分)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be us ed only once. Note that there are two more sentences than yo u need.How to Plan a Holiday Trip___67____Whether it’s to grandma’s house, a family reunion o r simply a holiday getaway, these yearly road trips can often b e the source of dread and stress. The thought of being trappe d in the car with restless children or the possibility of car troub le along the way is enough to make anyone consider staying home. ____68_____Plan the route for your car trip. If you're planning on driving to your holiday destination, a little planning can help make your t rip easy and uneventful. ____69____ Remember, it's likely that you won't be the only person on the road during the holidays, and traffic is always a factor. Alternate routes or shortcuts ca n help reduce time spent in traffic jams and get you to your de stination sooner. This information can also come in handy in c ase of road construction or other situations that might block your primary route.Consider your luggage needs. If you're traveling by car, the is sue of luggage is only important with regards to the amount of room needed. Before you begin packing, think about how ma ny people will be in your vehicle and how much room they will need to travel comfortably. This could affect the number of ba gs that you can take along. ____70_____Not only is the possib ility of lost luggage an issue, but most airlines now charge extra for checked baggage. For a family of four, carrying a few bags each could result in several hundred dollars worth of baggage fees during your trip. Try to pack as lightly as possib le.IV. Summary Writing (10分)Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main points of the passage in no more than 60 w ords. Use your own words as far as possible.Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say th e way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of ag ainst you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part ofdiet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments a re more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often le ss self-conscious(难为情的) when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t ha ve enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our app etites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room con sumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Wa rm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, whil e cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to re paint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里)per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin kee ping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It mak es you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one , total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent mor e liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.第II 卷 (共40分)I.

What really matters is not the colour. It’s how the clothes were made. So look for products made from environmentally friendly(环保的)materials.●Study Green.

They are added to the tens of thousands already in existence. An educated native speaker of English—whether from the US, Britain, Australia, or any country where English is the main language of communication—knows at least 30,000, which is only a part of the overall number that exist. Around 20,000 words are learnt by English native speakers by the age of 13. Ideally, students of English need this number of words in order to write or talk about the various topics they might need to discuss.But which words should people know? This changes constantly as fresh topics become newsworthy, and produce new lexical items (words,groups of words,or words with new meanings).Students of English need to learn these new additions to the language,and also get an explanation of what they mean. A good way to do this isto consult an online dictionary. But for people who do not have access to the World Wide Web,the lexicographers and publishers of the dictionaries have created this New Words supplement to help students with these new words.Words come into the language in three major ways. First,they may enter English as loanwords, words taken into English from another language, or sometimes from a regional dialect or another variety of English. English has accepted words from many different languages. Second, new words can be created by word formation,when words are formed by taking existing words,or pieces of words,and putting them together to make new ones (for example,chatroom or change management).Third,new words can come from layering (分层),when an existing word splits into more than one meaning. This results in polysemy.33.An educated Australian probably knows ________ words to communicate and show their opinions freely.A.at least 20,000B.less than 20,000C.at least 5,000 D.at least 30,00034.One purpose for students to consult an online dictionary is to________.A.change words constantlyB.produce lexical itemsC.learn the new wordsD.find out how dictionaries are written35.We can infer from Paragraph 3 that ________.A.the English language is rather openB.words are formed in three waysC.most English words have just one meaningD.chatroom is a new word from layering第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
