Let's TalkThe Origin of the Song "Happy Birthday to You"The story of the song "Happy Birthday to You" Began as a sweet one, but later became bitter. Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at a kindergarten, and Dr. Patty Hill, the principal of the same school, wrote a song together for the children, entitled "Good Morning to All". When Mildred combined her musical talents with her sister's knowledge in the area of kindergarten education,'Good Morning to All" was sure to be a success. The sister published the song in a collection entitled "Song Stories of the Kindergarten" in 1893. Thirty-one years later, after Dr. Patty Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia University's Teachers College, a gentleman by the name Robert Coleman published the song, without the sisters' permission. He added a second part, which is the familiar "Happy Birthday to You". Mr. Coleman's addition of the second part made the song popular and, finally, the sisters" original first part disappeared. "Happy Birthday to You" had altogether replaced the sisters' original song "Good Morning to All". In 1916 Patty took legal action against Mr. Coleman. In court, she succeeded in proving that hey were the real owners of the song.1. teacher at a kindergarten2. Good Morning to All3. Happy Birthday to You4. Happy Birthday to You Good Morning to AllPossible Retelling for the Teacher's ReferenceThe story of "Happy Birthday to You" was a nice, sweet on eat the very beginning, but later turned into a bitter one. There were two sisters: one was Mildred Hill, and the other Patty Hill. The former had great musical talents, while the latter had knowledge of kindergarten education. Bu combining their abilities, the two produced a song called "Good Morning to All". It was a success, and later published in a collection of songs for kindergartens.Thirty-one years later a man named Coleman published the song without the sisters' permission. To make things worse, he added a second part, which is the present "Happy Birthday to You". This new song soon became popular and eventually it replaced the sisters' first part altogether. Then, in 1916, Patty took legal action against Coleman. In court she managed to prove that she and her sister really owned the song.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask 1: KaraokeDalin: It's Mike's birthday on Friday, so a bunch of us are going to go to the karaoke bar. Would you like to come with us?Laura: Karaoke bar?

F3.T4.T5.FTask 2: When was music first sent down a telephone line?So you think downloading music from the Internet through a phone line is a really cool modern thing? Not so. In 1896, Thaddeus Cahill Filed a patent on the instrument for transmitting music electronically, and until 1914 he sent music signals down telephone lines with this instrument. And he wasn't even the first. Elisha Gray transmitted music over a telephone line in 1876, which was the same year the telephone was invented. Gray invented the first electronic music instrument in1874, calling it the "Musical Telegraph". Alexander Graham Bell also designed an experimental "Electric Harp" for speech to be transmitted over a telephone line using technology similar to Gray's. Bell was a speech teacher for the deaf. In 1879 he created an instrument to measure hearing loss. That is why the degrees of loudness came to be measured in bels or decibels.5-4-2-1-3Task 3: Thank You for the MusicI'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a boreIf I tell a joke, you're probably heard it beforeBut I have a talent, a wonderful thing'Cause everyone listens when I start to singI'm so grateful and proudAll I want is to sing it out loudSo I sayThank you for the music, the songs I'm singingThanks for all the joy they're bringingWho can live without it, I ask in all honestlyWhat would life beWithout a song or a dance what are weSo I say thank you for the musicFor giving it to meMother says I was a dancer before I could walkShe says I began to sing long before I could talkAnd I've often wondered, how did it all startWho found out that nothing can capture a heartLike a melody canWell, whoever it was, I'm a fanSo I sayThank you for the music, the songs I'm singing...SpeakingMusical MemoriesTony: Listen!

I'm crazy about Harry Potter. Have you heard that J.K. Rowling has added another book to the series?Amy: She's already written Book Seven? I'm still waiting for Book Five...Peter: I know. Who isn't? At least we have the movies to watch in the meantime.Amy: By the way, have you seen the trailer yet?Peter: Yeah. It was great! I think the movie itself will be really scary.Amy: It surely will! All that writing on the wall in blood... It scares me to death just to think about it!Both the girl and the boy are excited/crazy about the movie and the hero Harry Potter. The boy heard that the writer J.K. Rowling has written the latest book, which is Book Seven, though the girl is still waiting for Book Five. The boy has been the trailer and believes the film will be scary. The girl shares that view because of the writing on the wall in blood.Task 2: A Great ActorThere was once a great actor who could no longer remember his lines. After several years of searching, he finally found a theater that was willing to give him a try. The director said, "This is the most important part, and it has only one line. At the opening you walk onto stage carrying a rose. You hold the rose to your nose with just one finger and thumb, smell it deeply and then say the line on praise of the rose: 'Ah, the sweet smell of my love.'" The actor was excited. All day long before the play he practiced his line over and over again. Finally, the time came. The curtain went up, the actor walked onto the stage, looked at the audience, and with great emotion said the line, "Ah, the sweet smell of my love." The audience exploded in laughter. Only the director was furious! "Ahhhhhh! You damned fool!" he cried. "You've ruined my play! You've ruined me!" The actor was puzzled, "What happened? Did I forget my line?" "No!" shouted the director. "You forget the rose!"1.D2.C3.D4.A5.BTask 3: Movie ReviewsI love movies! And after I see them, I like to comment on them. These are movies I saw this year I would like to recommend: Among comedies I highly recommend "Monsoon Wedding". It's an Indian movie. The story is about an Indian wedding. Preparations for the wedding bring out funny and sad situations touching on love and a past rape. This movie shows some of the wonderful customs of India, and the importance of family and love. It's great!Among dramas, I like "Adaptation". It is an excellent movie! But for me the first part of the movie was too fast to follow. I hope to see it again on DVD with captions."The Pianist" is set in the Second World War. It's about a young Polish-Jewish pianist, who lives in Warsaw with his family. The Nazis sent his family to die in the concentration camps. He was safe, but would have died without unusually good luck and the kindness of a few non-Jews. This is a powerful movie with thought-provoking themes."Rabbit-Proof Fence" is set in the 1930s in Australia, and it's based on real events. It is about three native girls who are separated from their families by the racist police who send them to special centers. There the girls are taught practical skills, and the government tries to integrate them into white Australian society. They can away from the camp and walked 1,500 miles to find their mothers. This is a sad, touching story that you should not miss.1. He likes to see movies and comment on them.2. Four.3. Three.4.

Speaking OutModel 1 Will you come with me?John: Laura, I am wondering if you're free tomorrow night.Laura: Well, I guess I am. Why?John: I've got two Star Wars premiere tickets. Will you come with me?Laura: Yeah, definitely! Thanks for inviting me!John: It's my pleasure.Laura: I really wanted to see Star Wars on the opening night, but the tickets were sold out. How did you manage to get hold of them?John: A friend of mine works at the "Pepsi" headquarters, which is a major sponsor of the movie. So he was able to get the tickets for free.Laura: Wow, people are paying as much as $200 each on the black market. I'm flattered you went through all this trouble just for me.John: You're welcome.Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: Hi, are you busy this weekend?B: Yes. What's on your mind?A: I've got two tickets for the car exhibition. Would you like to go with me?B: Sure. Thanks for your invitation.A: It's nothing.B: I've been wanting to see exhibition, but it was not at all easy to get a ticket. How did you manage to get two tickets?A: A friend of mine works at the exhibition center. She was able to get three free tickets.B: Wow, people are paying almost 100 yuan for a ticket on the black market. Thank you very much indeed for inviting me.A: No problem.Model 2 What did you think about the movie?John: So... what did you think about the movie?Laura: Well... I think this Star Wars episode is an excellent piece of work, but not as good as the previous ones.John: Really? But I think this Star Wars episode was incredible!Laura: Why do you think so?John: Well, one of the most spectacular things about it was the special effects. State-of-the-art special effects were the main reason for the success of the previous episodes.Laura: You're right. The special effects were amazing! And I like the fact that they created so many fantastic settings and other-worldly costumes, weapons and creatures.Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: What did you think about The Lion King?B: Well... I think this cartoon was pretty good, but not as good as Beauty and the Beast. It's a killer flick.A: Really? But I think The Lion King was unbelievably good.B: I thought it was just OK. Why do you think so?A: Well, it's so interesting that the lives of the lions were similar to the lives of human beings.B: You're right. The murder in The Lion King was almost the same as the murder in the Shakespearean play Hamlet.Model 3 The plot is first-class.John: It's kind of cool that they still used the same Star Wars theme song for this movie.Laura: Yeah! It just reminds me of the previous Star Wars scenes.John: I know exactly what you mean! Hearing that song makes me think of the past.Laura: I think the plot was first-class. But I don't think the character development was that strong. John: Do you think that has anything to do with the casting of the movie?Laura: No, the casting was great; the actors are excellent, but I think the acting was a little weak. They just didn't have a lot of funny or meaningful lines.John: Well, maybe, but I liked the little kid that played "Skywalker". I can't imagine anyone else playing that part.Laura: Yeah, I liked him too. He's soooo cute!Now Your TurnSAMPLE DIALOGA: What do you think about the movie?B: I think the plot was first-class. But I don't think the character development was so strong.A: Yes, the characterization was rather weak. Do you think it is because of the casting of the movie?B: No, the cast was strong. But the acting was rather poor. And the lines are not interesting at all. A: Well, maybe. But I liked the heroine of the movie. She is excellent.B: Yeah, I liked her too. She's adorable!V. Let's TalkAlfred HitchcockAlfred Hitchcock was a British director. His movies frequently show innocent people caught up in situations beyond their control or even understanding.Hitchcock preferred the use of suspense in his movies. In surprise, the director provides the viewer with frightening things. In suspense, the director tells or shows things to the audience which the characters in the movie do not know, and then skillfully builds up tension around what will happen when the characters finally learn the truth. Hitchcock had a great sense of humor. Once at a French airport, a suspicious customs official looked at Hitchcock's passport, which was marked simply PRODUCER. The curious official asked, "And what do you produce?" "Gooseflesh." repliedHitchcock.Alfred Hitchcock always managed to make a brief appearance in his movies: He was sometimes getting on a bus, or crossing a street, pr walking in front of a store, or across the courtyard in an apartment. However, for the movie Lifeboat in 1944, he was faced with a difficult problem. The entire movie was set in a lifeboat out at sea, and there were only a few characters in the boat. Originally, he wanted to float by as a dead body, but he was afraid he'd sink! His clever solution was to place a photograph of himself in a newspaper that one of the characters read during the course of the movie.1. A2.C3.DVI. Furthering Listening and SpeakingListeningTask 1: Only One LinePeter has always wanted to be an actor, but never succeeded because he had a hard time memorizing lines. A friend of his told him about a small part in a play. He promised Peter that he could do it because he's only have to remember one line. Peter decided to take the part. His only line was, "Listen, I hear the guns roar!" Peter practiced and practiced, "Listen, I hear the guns roar!" On the opening night of the play Peter was very nervous. Backstage, he practiced his line, over and over again, "Listen, I hear the guns roar! Listen, I hear the guns roar!" Finally came his turn, Peter went onto stage. He heard a loud BOOM and cried out in spite of himself, "WHAT THE HELL WAS THA T?"1. memorizing lines2. remember one line3. I hear the guns roar4. a loud boom5. his lineTask 2: An Interview with J.K. RowlingQ: How did you get the idea for Harry Potter?A: I was traveling on a train between Manchester and London and the idea for Harry just fell into my head. At that point it was essentially the idea for a body who didn't know he was a wizard. Q: Did you always plan to write Harry's story in more than one book? If so, how many?A: I always conceived it as a seven-book series because I decided that it would take seven years, from age eleven to seventeen, inclusive, to train as a wizard, and each of the books would deal with one year of Harry's life at the school.Q: Any clues about the next book?A: I don't want to i\give anything away, but I tell you that the books are getting darker. Harry's going to have quite a bit to deal with as he gets older. Sorry if they get too scary!Q: Of the many things you must have heard people say about Harry Potter, what are some of your favorites?A: My very favorite was from a twelve-year-old Scottish girl who came to hear me read at the Edinburgh book festival. At the end of the festival, the queue for signing was very long. When the girl finally reached me, she said, "I didn't WANT there to be so many people here, because this is MY books!" That is exactly how I feel about my favorite books. Nobody else has a right to knowthem; let alone like them!1.T2.F3.F4.T5.FTask 3: The Secret of the Next Harry Potter BookThe Harry Potter books rapidly became one of the most in-demand book series among young readers and have earned large sums of money. Movies based on the books won several Oscar nominations. Readers are now keen to know the plot of the next book.Harry Potter movie fans will get a long-awaited treat. The movie Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret is finally about to come out. This time around, Harry discovers a frightening secret at Hogwarts School. Eager readers of the first four Harry Potter books are also trying to discover a secret, the secret plot of the fifth book in the series. Because of the long wait since Book Four, they are guessing many things. Some think that Professor Lupin will die or that Harry and his friend Ron may be related!J.K. Rowling herself has only said that Book Five will be shorter and scarier than Book Four. To make sure her readers hear only rumors, she locks all her ideas for the books in a hidden place. Since the next book does not come out until 2003, for mow Harry's secret is safe with her!1. D2.C3.A4.BSpeakingViews on MoviesInterviewer: Hello, Robert and Richard, I'd like to ask you something about movies. Do you prefer going to the theater or watching movies on video at home?Robert: I prefer, personally, going to the theater, because I believe there are certain movies that come over better when you see them in a large theater. The sound effect is much better. Interviewer: What about you, Richard?Richard: Just the opposite. It's more comfortable to sit at home.Interviewer: There're many different movie genres, for example, science fiction, action, comedy, romance. What's your personal favorite?Robert: My favorite would be action movies.Richard: And mine would be nice movies that touch me deeply.Interviewer: How do you like the old black and white movies of the forties, and fifties compared with the modern blockbusters?Robert: For their time, the movies of the forties and fifties were excellent.

I am used to friendly opening exchange when doing business. Here in Chicago, things are different. There is no time for getting to know one another. This does not seem appropriate to me. There is no chance to develop a sense of trust when people meet to talk over issues. There are no rituals like tea or coffee before discussing business, though this is a(n) convention in my country. When we discuss business it starts with a(n) leisurely chat. I think that it is important for business partners to get familiar with each other first and to feel relaxed. If the exchange is too abrupt, there is a risk that something will be forgotten. Some possibilities go without being assessed when there is too much pressure. I don't believe this is the best strategy for proper communication. Besides, the perception is that they just don't care about you as an individual here. You are basically just another means of making money.All of this used to create a real dilemma for me. At first, it caused me to have as little interaction with American business partners as possible. Gradually, though, I have come to understand the cultural differences between our two countries. Thishas really helped me to feel more comfortable doing business here.unit2Bill Johnson's path to Olympic gold was different than that of most. In fact, even though he was the first American man to ever win the downhill skiing event, many rejected him as a true Olympic hero. He was a rebellious kid who came from a troubled background, and he boasted too much. Moreover, he only became involved in skiing because a judge sent him to a ski school after he had stolen a car at age 17.There was no lifelong commitment to the sport. He did not exemplify the Olympic spirit. He did not gain distinction by continuously training for his event.Still, few failed to appreciate his marvelous race in the 1984 Winter Olympic Games in Sarajevo. He was just a natural skier and his technique was perfect for the course. And so even before the race began, he was claiming victory."This course was made for me. Nothing can stop me," he had boasted. He also caused some comments when he talked about the millions of dollars he would be able to make after he won the race. This made many skiers hostile toward him. That just encouraged him even more. Then on the day of the event, he turned out the fastest."It takes a lot of courage to throw yourself down a mountain, "Bill Johnson remarked proudly after he won a gold medal for the United States."Not many can do that."unit3At first, my dad was not in favor of me marrying Will because Will is black. I guess my dad was a bit of a racist. Unfortunately, no arguments could counter Dad's beliefs. Despite his protests, though, Will and I decided to go through with our wedding. On a marvelous June day we were married in the park. The wedding went off without any hostile words or embarrassing exchanges. It was actually quite beautiful. There was just one problem. Many of our friends and relatives didn't attend our wedding. I had to conclude that my dad was not the only prejudiced person we know. Other than my father, no one had come out to speak against my relationship with Will. It did not seem appropriate for them to show their resistance to our marriage in this way. My dad had strong reservations about my marriage to Will, but at least he was there. Will and I decided to overcome this burden by showing everyone how wrong they were. We wanted not only to love one another, but also to defy racial hatred by loving one another. We probably weren't being all that realistic, but we did succeed with one person. My dad and Will have developed a(n) amazing friendship. My dad says he has forgotten why he ever had any doubts about our marriage.Unit4What do we know about love? Is it, as some people would suggest, a mysterious force? Or can it be explained and possibly even created? Well, even in this scientific and reason-driven age, love seems still to defy total understanding. We can, however, know something about love and make stronger connections between individuals.One thing that seems to affect love is distance. The common idea is that the love between people grows as they are separated. Sometimes it is true that longing for someone who has gone overseas becomes more intense.Something that nourishes love is danger. Send both lovers to dangerous places and they will end up loving each other more. This could be caused by the worry it develops. It could also be that feelings of uncertainty or need transform into love with time.Love gives us warmth, courage, and a feeling of being safe, but it also demands selfless devotion and sacrifice. If you are truly committed to finding true love, you should make yourself more interesting. Do things that you enjoy and try to meet people who share identical interests.unit5My son has started to hang out with the wrong type of boys. He is fifteen years old and until recently I had always been grateful for how easy he has been to raise. Lately, though, he has ceased to listen to what I say. He used to be such a sweet boy, but being in high school seems to have hardened him against authority figures. The change in his attitude has been very noticeable even to his teachers.The other day I asked him to come straight home after school, but instead he rebelled and stayed out until ten o'clock. Later I found out that he had skipped school completely that day. I found out that he was with a(n) bunch of boys who often cause trouble. I decided to forbid him to do anything with those boys, but he didn't listen to me. In spite of my objections to him being with those boys, he was with them the very next day.A friend of mine has a son who is having identical problems. She decided to give him a change of environment and sent him to a private school. I'm not sure this is the best solution, though. You can't just change a boy's behavior by changing his school every time he does something wrong. It is better to help a kid establish a good set of core values.unit6My name, Bobby, is used both for boys and girls. Girls spell it "Bobbie". It is characteristic for little boys to be given a name with a "y" sound at the end. For example, I often had a Jimmy, Johnny or Billy in my classes. In my second grade, I also had a Bobbie. In order not to confuse us when she called our names, our teacher assigned us the names "Bobbie girl" and "Bobby Boy". This caused me a lot of trouble on the playground. There, my friends labeled me "Bobbie girl". For my friends, the apparent contrast between my name and my sex was the source of much laughter. The fact that they labeled me as a girl was very embarrassing. I had a tendency to compensate for my name by acting more like a boy than I might have otherwise. I threw more rocks and yelled louder than the sum of all of the other boys added together. The real "Bobbie girl", conversely, acted more like a girl. When my teacher realized she had made a mistake, she stopped calling us "Bobbie girl" and "Bobby Boy". Unfortunately, my friends never forgot or ceased calling me "Bobbie girl". Thirdgrade was an improvement; the original "Bobbie girl" was in a different class. Also, I requested the teacher just call me "Bob".三、翻译〔30%〕unit11.她连水都不愿喝一口,更别提留下来吃饭了。

Part I Reading Comprehension (24 points)Directions:There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 1 to 4 are based on the following passage.It was an early September day, cool and bright and just right for running, and I was in the first few miles of a lO-knownmile race over a course with a few high hills. Still, I felt energetic; despite the hills it was going to be a fine run.Just ahead of me was Peggy Mimno, a teacher from Mount Kiseo, New York. She too was running easily, moving along at my speed. The pace felt comfortable, so I decided to stay where I was; why pay attention to pace when she was setting such a nice one? I'd overtake(追上) her later on when she tired.So I ran behind her. The course headed north for miles, wandered west for a hilly mile, then turned south again along a winding road. The race was getting harder. We had four miles left and already it was beginning to be real work.Peggy overtook a young runner. She seemed to know him, for they exchanged a few cheerful words as she passed him. Their exchange worried me. You don't chat during a race unless you feeling good, and Peggy plainly was.Still, I was close enough to overtake her if she tired, so I didn't give up hope completely. We were getting nearer to a long, punishing hill now and it would be the test. We were a mile from the finish line, so whatever happened on the hill would almost determine who crossed it first.As I moved up the hill, my attention wandered for a few minutes. When I looked up, Peggy was moving away--first five yards, then ten, then more. Finally it was clear that there was no help of catching her. She beat me soundly.There is an important lesson in that race. Women are thought to be weaker, slower and not nearly as skilled in sport. Yet as Peggy Mimno so clearly showed, the similarities between men and women runners are more important than differences. I have run with a number of women, andI can say it is often hard work.1. What did the writer think of the race in the beginning?A. It would be hard work.B. It would be an easy race.C. It would be a test of his strength.D. It would be a good learning experience.2. What worried the writer when Peggy greeted the young runner?A. Peggy overtook the young runner.B. Peggy was running energetically.C. Peggy was laughing as the writer.D. Peggy paid no attention to the writer.3. By saying "a long, punishing hill" (paragraph 5 ), the writer implies that _____________ .A. Peggy would fail to reach the hilltopB. men are more skilled at climbing hillsC. overtaking Peggy would be easyD. climbing the hill would be a demanding task4. What lesson does the writer learn from the race?A. Women are as good as men in sport.B. Women are better at climbing hills.C. He should have more training in a cross-country race.D. He should set a quicker pace at the beginning of a race.Questions 5 to 8 are based on the following passage.Though war is something people hate, Director Feng Xiaogang often exposes his audience to it. “If we don’t impress the audience, who are without the painful experience of war, with the cruel injury to life and human nature war causes, how can we bring them a love of peace and objection to war?” asked the director with anger in his eyes.After Red River Valley and Lover’s Grief over the Yellow River, both of which star Chinese model and actress Ning Jing, Feng drew a satisfactory full stop to his war trilogy last month with Purple Sunset.The film tells a story which took place in 1945, at the very moment when World War II was drawing to and end. A Chinese peasant and a Soviet woman soldier flee into a forest, where they seize a Japanese girl. They follow the girl in the hope that she will take them out of the forest, but instead they arrive in a Japanese base. Humanity (仁慈)prevents them from killing the young, innocent victim of Japanese militarism(军国主义). This humanity, the longing for peace and eagerness to survive, make the three unite.“If people are touched by justice, tolerance and unselfishness, I think I have achieved my goal,” Feng said. Feng admits that there are violent and bloody scenes in the film, such as tanksfighting and Japanese burning Chinese people alive, to show t he cruelty of war. But that’s never his personal preference, he says. “Everyone who has watched my films can tell how much I detest war, “he said, “I wrote all the things for my war films by myself. Whenever I finished one, I felt as though I had suffered great pain.”Feng regards every one of his productions as an opportunity to learn about human nature and humanity. In spite of violent scenes which frighten and sicken the audience, a balance is sought with beautiful scenery. Just like the snowy mountains in Red River Valley and the grand plateau in Lover’s Grief over the Yellow River, a beautiful vast grassland appears in this film. “I used to study art and I appreciate beautiful things,” Feng said. “I believe that films should offer the audience a chance to enjoy beauty.”5.

establish the limits within which organisms can survive. plants, even more than animals, must be adapted to climate in order to survive. they cannot move about or take shelter but must be equipped to endure whatever weather conditions are likely to occur. in the harsh conditions of the tundra, for example, low growing mosses, lichens, and a few flowering plants all hug the ground for shelter from icy winds.animals, despite their ability to move about and find shelter, are just as much influenced by climate as plants are. creatures such as the camel and the penguin are so highly specialized that they have an extremely limited distribution. others, such as bears, are flexible enough to adapt to a broad range of climates. ocean-dwelling organisms are just as sensitive to climatic changes---in this case temperature and salinity---as land animals. reef corals can survive only in clear warm seawater. certain foraminifers are so sensitive to changes in their environment that their presence can be taken as an index of sea temperature. human beings are among the least specialized of all animals and can live almost anywhere. their clothes andtheir homes act as a sort of “miniature climate” that can be taken with them everywhere.(words: 223)51. according to the passage, plants on the tundra grow close to the ground_________.a. to avoid being eaten by arctic animalsb. because fertilizer is not readily availablec. to minimize exposure to the coldd. because unfrozen water supplies are very scarce52. according to the passage, which of the following can be found in the greatest number of different climate areas on earth?a. reef coralsb. penguinsc. bearsd. camels53. it can be inferred from the passage foraminifers are a____________.a. kind of weather patternb. form of sea lifec. species of tundra plantd. type of miniature penguin54. according to the passage, human beings can survive almost everywhere on earth because_____.a. they have developed advanced forms of transportationb. they have learned how to process seawater for drinkingc. their body temperature can vary considerablyd. their shelters and clothing help them to adapt to the environment55. according to the passage, animals were influenced by_______ despite their ability to move about and find shelter.a. climateb. territoryc. soild. human beingspassage 2psychiatric (精神病学的) tests show that a well-balanced person gets much angrier when provoked than an abnormal person does. at the new york state psychiatric institute, dr. james page and professor of psychology carney landis of columbia university studied the reaction of 200 normals and 210 abnormals. they tested their reactions to maddening situations of every type and variety, such as: being laughed at and ridiculed, being repeatedly disconnected on the telephone, accidentally hitting their thumb with a hammer, being worked on by a backseat driver, being told to “shut up” and mind their own business, discovering someone cheating in a friendly card game, etc. in almost every instance the anger reaction of the normal group was much more intense than that of the abnormal one.“this,” they reported, “is in accord with other psychiatric findings. for one of the outstanding symptoms of mental unbalance is an emotional apathy.” so if you blow your top when you bang your skin against a piece of furniture, or when your sweetheart goes out with another guy—d on’t worry about it. it’s just a sign that you are normal.(words: 191)56. this passage deals mainly with the ______.a. similarity to previous psychiatric studies of new york state psychological institute’s findings concerning anger reactionsb. absence of apathy in normalsc. level of intensity in anger reactions registered by normals versus abnormalsd. frequency of anger reactions registered by normals versus abnormals57. what is the main idea of this passage?a. anger is a universal phenomenon among humans.b. psychiatric tests proved that a person who gets angry is well-balanced.c. normal persons are apt to get angry much more easily than abnormals.d. normal persons react more intensely to anger-provoking situations than do abnormal individuals.58. the author recommends that, if you tend to become angry, you should ______.a. treat it as a normal reactionb. not worry about what has made you angryc. try to control your angerd. become concerned59. the word “apathy” in this passage most probably means______.a. need for affectionb. lack of feelingc. undue sensitivityd. anger60. the phrase “blow your top” in this passage most probably means ______.a. get very angryb. become indifferentc. keep your temperd. react positivelypassage 3thousands of years ago man used handy rocks for his surgical operations. later he used sharp bone or horn, metal knives and, more recently, rubber and plastic. and that was where we stuck, in surgical instrument terms, for many years. in the 1960s a new tool was developed, one which was, first of all, to be of great practical use to the armed forces and industry, but whichwas also, in time, to revolutionize the art and science of surgery.the tool is the laser and it is being used by more and more surgeons all over the world, for a very large number ofdifferent complaints. the word laser means: light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. as we all know, light is hot; any source of light — from the sun itself down to a humble match burning — will give warmth. but light is usually spread out over a wide area. the light in a laser beam, however, is concentrated. this means that a light with no more power than that produced by an ordinary electric light bulb becomes intensely strong as it is concentrated to a pinpoint-sized beam. experiments with these pinpoint beams have shown researchers that different energy sources produce beams that have a particular effect on certain living cells. it is nowpossible for eye surgeons to operate on the back of the human eye without harming the front of the eye, simply by passing a laser beam right through the eyeball. no knives, no stitches, no unwanted damage— a true surgical wonder.operations which once left patients exhausted and in need of long periods of recovery time now leave them feeling relaxed and comfortable. so much more difficult operations can nowbe tried.the rapid development of laser

For the first 7 questions in each passage, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. For the remaining 3 questions in the same passage, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Questions 1 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog. Building Solid FoundationsWhen it comes to the construction (建造) of a building, few people would argue about the importance of establishing a strong foundation. It's not different in building a business, a family, or a life.In 2000, we watched the failure of many Internet-based companies. One of the reasons for this is that these companies were built without solid foundations. A company needs more than just money and material to satisfy its basic needs; it also requires a firm base from which to build.The emphasis (重点) today is on instant satisfaction. But if we want to build something of value, something that will last, we must build a foundation that will support our goal. It takes effort and it takes conviction, but the rewards are worth it.Keep Your Eyes on What You're BuildingThere was once a man passing by a construction site. He stopped and asked one of the tradesmen what he was doing. The worker replied simply, "I'm laying bricks(砖), can't you see that?" The man watched a while longer and then asked another worker what he was doing. "I'm just earning a living," he replied. A third time the man asked a worker and the response was much different, "I'm building a beautiful church."No doubt the personal happiness and the quality of the work from the last man was much better than from the first two.And what about us? Are we just collecting a pay check, doing hard dull work — laying bricks? Or are we building churches?By staying focused on what we're building and seeing the task at hand as accomplishing that purpose, we'll gain greater satisfaction, our work will be lighter, and we'll create more excellence.Foundations Take TimeI recently watched a building being built. (I must admit I was tempted to ask some of the workers what they were doing.) For months, there seemed to be little progress. There was plenty of dust, lots of activity, but very few signs that anything was really happening.That's because they were building the foundation—the foundation to support a great structure. And that takes time.The engineers, the head builders, and the owner certainly weren't standing around saying, "Where's the building? Why can't I seemore progress?" They knew that a majority of the time to construct the building would be spent in laying the groundwork.Once the foundation is ready, the rest of the construction happens at fast speed. Even mistakes made in the superstructure (上层建筑) can be corrected without too much difficulty. But faults in the foundation CANNOT be easily repaired and will threaten the entire structure.And why should what we build be any different? We need to put strong foundations under our dreams, our businesses, and our relationships. I believe that this is where many people struggle. They're too focused on the rewards and don't give enough attention to the hard work and careful planning required in building the substructure (基础建筑). They want to start putting up walls and bringing in the business too soon. And in the end, most fail because there is not the right support.A strong foundation, built with good materials and a great deal of effort, will make your structure one that stands up to all attacks and fully supports your efforts.547 words)1.In creating something, it's important to ________________.A. have a strong foundationB. have the support of familyC. have few people to argueD. have a firm construction2.Many internet companies failed, because people thought________________.A. failing was impossibleB. having money and material was enoughC. satisfying themselves was basicD. having a firm base came first3.Our focus today is on ________________.A. supportive foundationsB. instant convictionC. immediate satisfactionD. worthwhile rewards4.Which of the men had personal happiness?________________A.

Although Beethoven could sit down and compose easily, his really great compositions did not come easily at all. They cost him a great deal of hard work and he always found it hard to satisfy himself.When he was 28, he began to notice a strange noise in his ears. As it grew worse, he went to see doctors, and was told that he was going deaf. This was too much for any composer to bear. Beethoven was without hope; he was sure that he was going to die. He went to the countryside where he wrote a long good-bye letter to his brothers, describing how sad and lonely his deafnessmade him. He longed to die, and said to death, "Come when you will; I shall meet you bravely."In fact, Beethoven did something braver than dying. He gathered his courage and went on writing music, though he could hear what he wrote more and more faintly. He wrote the music for which we remember him best after he became deaf. This music was very different from any that had been composed before. Instead of the artistic and beautiful music that earlier composers had written for their rich listeners, Beethoven wrote stormy, exciting music which reminds us of his troubled and courageous (勇敢的) life. His Heroic (英雄的) Symphony (交响乐) and Fifth Symphony both show his courage in struggling with his fate.In time he went completely deaf, but he wrote more creatively than ever, for he could "hear" his music in his mind. He was lonely and often unhappy but in spite of this, he often wrote joyful music, such as his last symphony, the Ninth. Because of his courage and strong will to triumph, his music has given joy and encouragement to millions of people.1.How did Beethoven's deafness affect him?A. It killed him.B. It stopped his writing music.C. It drove him mad.D. It helped him create great music.2.Which of the following music works written by Beethoven wasjoyful?A. No. 9 Symphony.B. No. 7 Symphony.C. No. 5 Symphony.D. No. 3 Symphony.3.Beethoven longed to die because _______________.A. he had told death he would meet it bravelyB. he felt his deafness was too much for him to bear as acomposerC. he wouldn't be able to write music for rich listeners afterbecoming deafD. he wouldn't be able to support his family4.Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Music and SymphonyB. Hard to SatisfyC. The Music of FateD. Deafness in Music.5.According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. When he was partly deaf, Beethoven's music becamemore and more gentle.B. His music became more and more artistic although he wasdeaf.C. He wrote fainter and fainter music after he went deaf.D. He composed exciting and encouraging music thatreflected his struggle with his fate.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog. Culture shock might be called an expected disease of people who have suddenly moved to some foreign countries. Like most diseases, it has its own symptoms and cure.Culture shock is started by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and sights of social activities. Those signs or cues (提示) include the thousand and one ways in which we find our place in the situation of daily life: when to shake hands and what to say when we meet people, when and how to give tips, how to make purchases, when to accept and when to refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when not. These cues, which may be words, gestures, expressions with the face, customs, or norms, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and are as much a part of our culture as the languagewe speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend for our peace of mind and our efficiency on hundreds of these cues, most of which we do not carry on the level of conscious awareness.Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar cues are removed. He or she is like a fish out of water. No matter how broad-minded or full of goodwill you may be, a number of supports have been knocked out from under you followed by a feeling of frustration and anxiety. People respond to the frustration in much the same way. First they reject the environment which causes the discomfort. "The ways of the host country are bad because they make me feel bad." When foreigners in a strange land get together to complain about the host country and its people, you can be sure they are suffering from culture shock. Another stage of culture shock is regression. The home country suddenly assumes a great importance. To the foreigner everything becomes much greater than it really is. All the difficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered. It usually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality.6.According to the passage, culture shock is_________________.A. an expected disease of foreign peopleB. may lead to very serious symptomsC. actually not a diseaseD. something that can't be changed7.According to the passage, culture shock results from________________.A. the sudden loss of our own signs and sights of socialactivitiesB. the sudden change of our daily habitsC. the sudden change of the social situation and customsD. the discomfort that we feel when faced with a foreigner8.Which one of the following may NOT be the symptoms ofculture shock?A. You don't know how to express your thanks.B. You don't know how to greet other people.C. You suddenly forget what a word means.D. You don't understand why a foreigner acts in a certainway.9.How would a person who stays abroad most probably actwhen he is frustrated by the culture shock according to thepassage?A. He is most likely to refuse to absorb the strangeenvironment at first.B. He may begin to hate the people or things around him.C. He is ready to accept the change and change himself tothe new environment.D. Although he takes the cultural differences to be regular, hestill doesn't know what to do with them.10.This passage is most likely taken from ______________.A. a news reportB. a grammar bookC. a book on medicine and psychologyD. an essay on human customs答案图例:Right Wrong To be marked by instructorPart 1 Vocabulary and Structure (每小题: 1 分; 满分:15 分)(In the case of True/False type of questions, A stands for True and B for False, or A for Y, B for N and C for NG.)小题得分对错学生答案Correct1. 1 D D2. 1 B BCABBCDABCADCAentirely convention significance principles customsexist absolute assessthose practice increasingly consciousness used to be difference individual's communities weightSometurnconductingABCDABCthe entire structure careful planning support your effectsacuteinclined competentemailenhanceinsistprobe contemporary sparecapitalD A B C D A A C B D。

We would like also to express our appreciation to Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Wu for their help as we collected the data necessary for this proposal. After thoroughly analyzing your company's engineering requirements, we believe that you will find this proposed PLR system satisfactory. It will provide the maximum return on your investment dollar. In addition, the PLR system protects you against obsolescence (过时) in the near future-if your business continues to experience the normal growth you have experienced in the last few years-because the equipment PLR proposes to install is a modular (模块的) design to which you may add additional units as the need arises.

Short Answer QuestionsDirections: Read the following passage and give brief answers to the questions following it. Use as few words as possible. (5 points)Passage 1The silent springToday the word "environment" is on everybody's lips. Even primary school children know that if we don't look after the environment, human beings are finished. But in the early 1960s, looking after the environment was not something that many people were serious about. One book changed all that.Silent Spring, by Rachel Carson, was published in 1962. Its subject was a pesticide called DDT, and its destructive effect on the environment, particularly birds. DDT was the most powerful pesticide ever invented, being capable of killing hundreds of different kinds of insects. It had been used widely in the US since 1945. Carson, who was a nature lover and wrote books about it, also wrote for the US Fish and Wildlife Service. In 1958, a friend of hers sent her a description of the deaths of large numbers of birds at Cape Cod, in Massachusetts, where DDT had been sprayed. Carson had already done a lot of research on DDT, but it soon became clear to her that newspapers were unwilling to publish anything about its dangers. She wrote a book on it that took four years to complete. It argued that the effects of DDT had not been researched enough, and that the pesticide was harming and killing birds, and not only birds but also animals and possibly humans. Carson's most famous chapter described an imaginary town in spring where no birds sang and where all life, including children, had been "silenced" by DDT.The book caused an immediate sensation and was widely read. Although the chemical industry denied the damaging effects of DDT, the public became very concerned. For the first time, people began to question whether technological progress should be at the expense of the environment. Government scientists investigated Carson's claims and in 1972 DDT was banned in the US. Carson's book became the start of what we now call "the environment movement".51.

Reading Comprehension (40%)Directions: Read the following passage(s); carefully and do the multiple-choice questions. Text 1Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a step back from the closeness of human interaction. With e-mail and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.As almost every imaginable contact between human beings becomes automatic by machine, the alienation quotient goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person anywhere. Directory assistance is almost always fully automatic by machine. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good-morning to the worker when you can swipe (刷卡) your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Placing money at the bank? Why talk to a clerk who might live in the neighborhood when you can just put your credit card into the ATM?Pretty soon you won't have the hard task of making eye contact at the grocery store. Some grocery chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding thoseannoying clerks who look at you and ask how you are doing.21.

A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. A great athlete practices until he can play quickly accurately without thinking. Tennis players call that "being in the zone." Educators call it "automatically."A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and decoding the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase. With automaticity, he doesn't have to think about decoding the words, so he can concentrate on the meaning of the text.It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found autom atic readers in the first grade who were reading almost three times as fast as the other children and scoring twice as high on comprehension tests. At fifth grade, the automatic readers were reading twice as fast as the others; and still outscoring them on accuracy, comprehension and vocabulary."It's not I. Q. but the amount of time a child spends reading that is the key to autom aticity, " according to Rossman. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will in all likelihood reach automaticity.At home, where the average child spends 25 hours a week watching television, it can happen by turning off the set just one night in favor of reading.You can test your child by giving him a paragraph or two to read aloud - som ething unfamiliar but appropriate to his age. If he reads aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, he probably is an automatic reader. If he reads haltingly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, he needs more practice.35. The first paragraph tells us ________.A) what automaticity isB) how accuracy is acquiredC) how a child learns to walkD) how an athlete is trained36. An automatic reader _______.A) sounds out the lettersB) concentrates on meaningC) has a high I.Q.D) pays much attention to the structures of sentences37. The Illinois study shows that the automatic reader's high speed ________.A) costs him a lot of workB) affects his comprehensionC) leads to his future successD) doesn't affect his comprehension39. A bright child ________.A) also needs practice to be an automatic readerB) always achieves great success in comprehension testsC) becomes an automatic reader after learning how to readD) is a born automatic reader40. The main idea of the passage isA) how to score high on comprehension testsB) reading is the key to school successC) how to test your child's reading abilityD) automaticity is important for efficient readingIII.

Reading Comprehension: (15*2=30')Passage OneCan animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be taught to do a number of simple jobs. They say that in a film or on TV we may see elephants, or monkeys, dogs, bear, or other animals doing a lot of things. If you watch carefully, you may find that those animals are always given something to eat in return for doing them. The scientists say that many different animals may be taught to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get something to eat in return.Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and elephant can be used to do some heavy jobs. And we can also teach animal to work in factories. Apes(猿猴), for example, have been used in America to help make cars and scientists believe that these large monkeys may one day get in crops and even drive trains.1.

If you are like a lot of American workers today, you experience a significant amount of stress in work. Stress doesn't just make you unhappy at work. It canaffect your health. Doctors say people under stress have higher blood pressure, even when they are away from work. And they are at a higher risk for death from any cause than those who are more relaxed.How do you know if your job could be a risk to your health? Some danger signs include difficulty getting to sleep or difficulty waking up in the morning, forgetfulness, aches and pains for no apparent reason, a desire to eat less or tendency to eat poorly, loss of interest in activities, etc. Everyone has bad days in which they feel many of these symptoms, but if you have noticed several of them, and you have experienced them for months, you may need to do something.If you notice these signs in yourself or your beloved one, check with your doctor to eliminate other possibilities. If the cause does appear to be stress, you should try to make time for yourself away from work. Try relaxing in a warm bubble bath, listening to music, and shutting out the world for a while.1.According to the passage, ____________.A. many American workers are under stress latelyB. almost all people know how to get rid of stressC. most people go to doctors for help with stressD. it is sure that our work is doing harm to our health2.How does stress at work affect your life?A.

Every advance in communications technology is a step back from the closeness of human interaction. With email and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.As almost every imaginable contact between human beings becomes automatic by machine, the alienation quotient goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person anywhere. Phone assistance is almost always fully automaticby machine. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good morning to the worker when you can use your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Placing money at the bank? Why talk to a clerk who might live in the neighborhood when you can just put your credit card into the ATM?Pretty soon you won't have the hard task of making eye contact at the grocery store. Some grocery chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding those annoying clerks who look at you and ask how you are doing.6.The effect of increased communication technology is____________.A. the retreat of human closenessB. the lack of care for neighborsC. the saving of more free timeD. the advance of our contacts7.If his mom has a question, he will ____________.A. find new ways to reach herB. send her an email messageC. try to get her a voice machineD. answer through voice mail8.Judging from the context, the word "alienation" (Line 2,Paragraph 2) means ___________.A. relationshipB. closenessC. strangenessD. stress9.ATMs in banks have changed life by __________.A. making it more difficult to want human contactB. making it faster to receive money from banksC. making it easier to obtain bank credit cardsD. making it unnecessary to talk with bank clerks10.The writer's attitude toward advances in communicationstechnology may be described as _______________.A. unconcernedB. criticalC. positiveD. uninterestedQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In 1848, gold was discovered in California; from all over the nation, thousands of young men set out for California. People called this the time of the Gold Rush.A gold miner came into a city looking for a pair of pants. He wanted pants strong enough to stand up to the rough work of mining. He met a young man named Levi, who sold heavy cloth for tents and wagon tops. They asked a tailor to use heavy cloth for their pants. Then Levi went into the business of making work pants. He asked his brothers to send him some strong blue cotton cloth called denim (斜纹粗棉布). With this blue denim cloth, Levi started making the kind of pants we call blue jeans today. They were sewed up in the same way as other pants.In 1860, a miner said that the pockets weren't strong enough to hold the pieces of gold he found. The pockets kept falling off the pants. The cloth was all right. It was the thread that wasn't strong enough. So Levi used rivets (铆钉) to attach the pockets onto thepants.Cowboys needed tough pants, too. They liked their pants to fit tightly. But the rivets marked the cowboys' saddles. So Levi covered the rivets with cloth. Then everybody was happy.11.This article as a whole is about __________________.A. how people got blue jeansB. the Gold Rush in CaliforniaC. How blue jeans are madeD. The kind of pants cowboys' wear12.While not stated in the article, you can tell that__________________.A. everybody who went to California got a lot of goldB. Levi found riches in the gold fieldsC.

It was Levi who started the business of making blue jeans.B. It was one tailor who started making blue jeans.C. It was in California that blue jeans first became popular.D. It was in California that gold was discovered.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Rote-learning (死记硬背), spoon-fed education, produces a brand of kids that don't know what to do when entering university. They are disciplined into following, not leading. Yet the future depends on creativity and imagination. The world needs creators, makers and shakers of the new centuries, not the followers of the past centuries. As the numbers increase at college and university level, more students from the lower ends are likely to be thrown into a process designed to choose only learners that have proved excellent in listening to teachers.There are three ways to learn: looking, listening and doing.Students and teachers today are a product of learning by listening. The computer may not be liked by traditional teachers, who use rote-learning to put information, which will be out of date in a few years, into the heads of the students. With computer learning you learn by looking, listening and doing; you use three methods of learning, not just one. Therefore, you can learn faster.The changing speed of information is frightening. What we learn now will be out of date in the near future. So what students are learning now at school may be replaced by the time they finish university. We have to learn by choice what to forget. Rote-learningfor exams is one thing, but wouldn't it be better to learn how to learn? The students at university today could possibly be doing a job in the not too distant future which has not yet been invented.16.According to the author, the future doesn't need____________.A. creativityB. imaginationC. creatorsD. followers17.In the author's view, how can students learn well?A. Carefully listen to the teacher in class.B. Take down every single word said by the teacher.C. Learn all the notes by heart.D. Combine listening with looking and doing.18.What does the author mean by "The changing speed ofinformation is frightening"?A. We don't have enough time to adjust ourselves to the speedof information.B. What we learned today may not be useful tomorrow.C. The pace of life is too fast.D. The world is changing every minute.19.What does the last sentence of the passage tell us?A. Rote-learning is completely harmful.B. Students may have to do jobs which are not yet inexistence.C. It's better to learn how to learn than learn what to forget.D. Students must imagine the future.20.The author's attitude towards rote-learning is _________.A. approvingB. disapprovingC. confidentD. opposite to what the words sayQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. After having lived for over twenty years in the same district, Albert Hall was forced to move to a new neighborhood. He surprised his landlord by telling him that he was leaving because he could not afford to buy any more chocolate.It all began a year ago when Albert Hall returned home one evening and found a large dog in front of his gate. He was very fond of animals and as he happened to have a small piece of chocolate in his pocket, he gave it to the dog. The next day, the dog was there again. It held up its paws (爪子) and received another piece of chocolate as a reward. Albert called his new friend "Bingo". He never found out the dog's real name, nor who his owner was. However, Bingo appeared regularly every afternoon and it was quite clear that he liked chocolate more than bones. He soon grew dissatisfied with small pieces of chocolate and demanded a large piece a day. If at any time Albert couldn't give it, Bingo got very angry and refused to let him open the gate. Albert was now at Bingo's mercy and had to "buy him" to get into his own house! He spent such a large part of his money to keep Bingo supplied with chocolate that in the end he had to move somewhere else.21.Albert had been living in the same district for_____________________.A. many weeksB. under twenty yearsC. all his lifeD. more than twenty years22.Albert decided to move because _____________________.A. he didn't get along well with his landlordB. he was afraid of animals, especially dogsC. he couldn't get into his own house freelyD. he was not satisfied with that district23.Bingo waited for Albert every afternoon at the gate because____________.A. he wanted some bonesB. he wanted chocolateC. he liked AlbertD. he had no other place to go24.We can tell from the story that_________________________.A.

Tonga is made up of about 150 islands located in the South Pacific Ocean. There are three main groups of islands—Vava'u in the north, Ha'apai in the middle, and Tongatapu in the south. Most of the eastern islands are made up of dead animal remains. The higher islands in the west were formed by a process of mountain building. Large areas on these islands are too mountainous to be used for crops. Some of the mountains are still active—which means that they can be dangerous. Many of the smaller islands do not have any people on them. There are only two large towns—Nukualofa, the capital, and Neiafu. These towns are Tonga's chief ports.Tonga has few natural resources. The most important resources are a pleasant sunny climate and natural beauty, which attract growing numbers of tourists. Because of its location, Tonga is sometimes hit by storms. One such storm, in 1982, caused high winds and huge waves that destroyed many homes, including almost all of the buildings in Nuku'alofa.Tonga was a British protected state from 1900 until 1970, when it became fully free from foreign rule again. Britain was responsible for Tonga's foreign affairs, but the Tongan nobles still controlled local matters. For most of this period, Tonga was ruled by Queen Salote Tupou III. During the time of her leadership, education and health care were expanded and women were given the right to help choose the leaders. The Tongan government is a mixture of Polynesian tradition and Western methods. The government, in part, is made up of a seven-member body appointed by the king, seven nobles chosen by the nobles, and seven persons chosen by all adult citizens.Tonga's small size, lack of resources, and growing population have created problems. But the country is well governed, and sound plans for the future are being made.。
