并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．AArriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.He reported the case to the police and then sat there，lost and lonely in strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband‘s name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can （垃圾桶）that had been left out on the footpath.My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.21. What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?A. Go shoppingB. Find a houseC. Join his familyD. Take his family22. The girl‘s parents got Rashid‘s phone number from_______.A. a friend of his familyB. a Sydney policemanC. a letter in his papersD. a stranger in Sydney23.

From India to Australia.B. Living in a a New Country.C. Turning Trash to Treasure.D. In Search of New Friends.BSince the first Earth Day in 1970,American have gotten a lot ―greener‖ toward the environment . ―We didn‘t know at that time there even was an environment, let alone that there was a problem with it,‖ says Bruce Anderson, president of Earth Day USA.But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement .Business people, political leaders, university professors, and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement. ―The understanding has increased many ,many times,‖ says Gaylord Nelson, the former governor from Wisconsin, who thought up the first. According to US government reports , emissions (排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 tons .The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9 .Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with , the world is a safer and healthier place .A kind of ―Green thinking ‖ has become part of practices .Great improvement has been achieved .In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs ,; today in 1995 there are about 6,600 .Advanced lights ,motors , and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution .Twenty –five years ago , there were hardly any education programs for environment .Today , it‘s hard to find a public school , university , or law school that does not have such a kind of program .‖ Until we do that , nothing else will change! ‖ say Bruce Anderson .25 According to Anderson , before 1970, Americans had little idea about ___A. the social movementB. recycling techniquesC. environmental problemsD. the importance of Earth Day26 Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?A.

They have reduced pollution through effective measures .28. What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last paragraph ?A. EducationB. PlanningC. Green livingD. CO reductionCOne of the latest trend（趋势）in American Childcare is Chinese au pairs. Au Pair in Stamford, for example, has got increasing numbers of request for Chinese au pairs from aero to around 4,000 since 2004. And that‘s true all across the country.―I thought it would be useful for him to learn Chinese at an early age‖ Joseph Stocke, the managing director of s company, says of his 2-year old son. ―I would at least like to give him the chance to use the language in the future,‖ After only six months of being cared by 25-year-old woman from China, the boy can already understand basic Chinese daily expressions, his dad says.Li Drake, a Chinese native raising two children in Minnesota with an American husband, had another reason for looking for an au pair from China. She didn‘t want her children to miss out on their roots.‖Because I am Chinese, my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to(接触) the language and culture.‖ she says.―Staying with a native speaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom,‖says Suzanne Flynn, a professor in language education of Children.‖ But parents must understand that just one year with au pair is unlikely to produce wonders. Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12.‖The popularity if au pairs from china has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children who want their children to learn Chinese. It is expected that American demand for au pairs will continue to rise in the next few years.29.What does that term‖ au pair‖ in the text mean?A. A mother raising her children on her ownB.

Li Drake has her children study Chinese because she wants them ______.A. to live in China some dayB. to speak the language at homeC. to catch up wit other childrenD. to learn about the Chinese culture31.

Text 1 The first time I heard the actual London Bridge was in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, I thought it was a joke. A stupid joke at that. I mean, what sort of moron would take a perfectly good, perfectly famous bridge and move it halfway around the world to some no-name town in northwest Arizona? Back in 1962 when all this started, Lake Havasu City was nothing. A couple of shops, a couple of homes, and no tourism at all. It turns out Robert McCulloch is the moron in question, and he wasn' t quite the moron I thought he was. His 2.45 million dollar investment( 投资 ) in the 130-year-old bridge--which the British government was selling because it was about to fall into the Thames (泰晤⼠河)--ended up being the investment of a lifetime. You see McCulloch was a real businessman, among other things, and his money paid off big. He turned Lake Havasu into one of the most visited tourist at- tractions in Arizona. It took nine long years to take down the bridge, ship it brick by brick to the middle of no- where, and build it up again. When it finally did open up in 1971, it was a huge deal covered by the international press. The bridge is now a popular tourist attraction, and there' s even a mini "English Village" at the foot of the bridge with souvenirs( 纪念品 ) and real British food so you can have a good old time. Nowadays Lake Havasu is a busy town with a population of about 56,000 citizens and another2.5 million visitors each year. Most of that is during spring break when the town overflows with energetic boys and girls. Even MTV and the Girls Gone Wild people get in on the action. All thanks to that little bridge. I don' t know about you, but I' m saving my pennies. When the French get sick of that Eiffel tower, I' ll be the first to put money on it. It' ll look great in my backyard. 56. The underlined word "moron" in the first paragraph means________. A. a brave person B. a foolish person C. a famous person D. a strange person 57. Why did the British government put the London Bridge up for sale? A. It polluted the Thames. B. It was no longer popular. C. It was going to fall down. D. It could bring them the needed money. 58. What was Lake Havasu City like before 19627________. A. It was a good place for investment. B. It was known for its English Village. C. It was a small town with no tourism. D. It had a population of 56,000 citizens. 59.In the last paragraph, the author tries to be________. A. polite B. friendly C. practical D. humorous 阅读理解B: Studies over the past decade at the University of Utah show that hands-free cellphones are just as harmful to drivers as hand-held ones because it is the conversation, not the phone, that is distracting(分散) their attention. "Even though your eyes are looking right at something, when you are on the cellphone, you are not as likely to see it," says Professor David Strayer. "Ninety- nine percent of the time, it' s not that critical(危机的), but that 1% could be the time a child runs into the street," he adds. Dr. Strayer' s studies have also found that talking on a cellphone is far more distracting than talking with a passenger. Listening to the radio, to music or to a book on tape also isn' t as distracting, because it doesn' t require the same level of interaction as a conversation. But even drivers may miss some details of a book on tape if their attention is focused on driving tasks. some people can train themselves to pay extra attention to things that are important--like police officers learn to search faces in crowds. And the Utah researchers have found a rare group of "super-taskers"--about 2.5 % of the pop-ulation--who seem able to attend to more than one thing with ease. Many more people think they can effectively do several things at the same time, but they are really turning their attention rapidly between two things and not getting the full effect of either. Clearly, it is easier to put some tasks together than others. "Not all distractions are the same," says Dr. Strayer. Things like cleaning and working out can be done automatically(⾃动的) while the mind is focused elsewhere. But doing homework and texting at the same time isn' t possible. Even talking and watching TV is difficult. "Just try talking with your wife while watching football. It' s impossible," jokes Dr. Strayer. 60. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. The harm in using phones while driving. B. The advantages of hand-held phones. C. The danger of running in the street. D. The causes of road accidents. 61. What does the example of police officers in Paragraph 2 show?A. Searching for faces require more attention than driving.B. Talking to a crowd calls for a high level of attention.C. one' s attention can be easily distracted in crowds. D. The ability to attend to two tasks can be trained. 62. "Super-taskers" can be best described as people who can________. A. do several things effectively at the same time B. turn their attention rapidly to two things C. handle all difficult tasks with ease D. pay full attention to one task 63.Which of the following can you do while talking on the phone? A.Doing homework. B. Writing a letter. C. Working out. D. Watching TV. 阅读理解C: Young women who take part in beauty contests(⽐赛) are helping to keep alive an outdated o-pinion of women : that a woman' s most important value is how she looks. Women have been working very hard through the years to change their image (形象). They have been trying to prove that the value of a woman does not lie only in her beauty. The world is just beginning to recognize that women are as smart, wise and strong in personality as men are, and that there are qualities more important than looks when judging people. When women take part in beauty contests for top prizes, they encourage people to value them for their beauty alone. It is un- fair to say that beauty alone determines one' s worth. Beauty contests not only encourage spectators(观众) to judge women by their appearance, but they encourage this idea in the contestants as well. These young women spend months losing weight to be the "right" size and learning how to dress, wear makeup, and walk just right so that some judges will consider them beautiful. I think it' s great for a woman to feel good about her appear- ance, but looks shouldn't be sought after in an extreme or unreasonable way. There are too many other, more important, things in a young woman' s life: learning, developing friendships and preparing for their future work and perhaps a family. As long as there are beauty contests, women won't be fully recognized as well-rounded human beings. 64. According to the text, women have tried to change their image by_______. A. proving they are as good as men B. paying attention to their clothes C. winning more beauty contests D. encouraging people to value their beauty 65. What do women usually do in preparation for beauty contests? A. Leam about their personality. B. Do everything for their bodies. C. Choose the right size dresses. D. Develop friendship with spectators. 66.What can we infer from the text? A. Looks determine everything. B. Wisdom carries much weight. C. Spectators should have their voices heard. D. Qualities other than looks are more important. 67. According to the author, beauty contests areA. disrespectful to womenB. unpleasant to contestantsC. necessary for modem societyD. helpful in improving women' s image 阅读理解D: It is late at night and you are still awake. Should you take a sleeping pill( 药⽚) ? People who take medicine often come to depend on it. so you lie awake knowing that the new work day will soon arrive. If this happens to you for at least one month, you may have insonmia, or sleeping problems, at an early stage. There are millions of you.., us... around the world. A new study led by Eric Nofzinger and Daniel Buysse of the University of Pittsburgh Medical School has found that you might fall asleep quicker and stay asleep longer if you try "cerebral hypo- thermia", which just means cooling down your brain. They examined twelve people who had in- somnia and twelve others who had no sleep problems. Each of them wore a soft plastic cap on their heads at bed time. The caps had tubes(软管 ) inside filled with water. The researchers moved the water through the tubes and then changed the temperature of the water. As other studies showed that people who had trouble sleeping often had more chemical reactions ( 反应) in the front of their brains, the researchers thought lowering the temperature of the brain might help. For the first two nights of testing, the patients wore no water caps. During the next two nights, the caps were worn, but the water was not cooled. Then the researchers cooled the water a little for two nights. on the final two nights of the study, the temperature of the water was made much cooler. The researchers found that the water caps did not help the insomnia patients until the tempera- ture was about 140C. Most of the patients fell asleep faster and slept better when the coolest water was moving around their heads, 68. People might suffer from an early stage of insomnia if they A. become dependent on drugs B. need to take medicine before sleep C. stay up late worrying about their jobs D. have difficulty falling asleep over a month 69. How can people' s sleeping be improved according to the study? A. Control the brain temperature. B. Put plastic caps on at the right time.C. Wear caps made of proper materials.D. Limit the cups of water taken in each day. 70. How many days did the researchers test insomnia patients? A. Two days. B. Four days. C. Six days. D. Eight days. 71. What might be the best title for the text? A. How Researchers Discovered a New Use of Water B. How Cooling the Brain May Help People Sleep C. What People Need for a Good Night' s Sleep D. What Happens in the Human Brain at Night 阅读理解E: Eating Etiquette What should you do or not do when you are eating in Britain? The British generally pay a lot of attention to good table manners. Even young children are expected to eat properly with knives and forks. We eat most of our food with cutlery. The foods we don' t eat with a knife, fork or spoon in- clude sandwiches and fruit. Things you should do If you cannot eat a certain type of food or have some special needs, tell your host several days before the dinner party. If you are a guest, it is polite to wait until your host starts eating or invites you to do so. It shows consideration. Always chew(咀嚼) and swallow(吞噬 ) all the food in your mouth before taking more or taking a drink. Always say thank you when served something. It shows your gratefulness. You may eat things like chicken with your fingers if you are having a picnic with friends or in very informal settings. Otherwise always use a knife and fork. When eating bread rolls, break off a piece before buttering. Eating it whole shows poor taste.on formal dining occasions (场合) it is good manners to take some butter from the butter dish with your bread knife and put it on your side plate. Then butter pieces of the roll using this butter. This prevents the butter in the dish getting full of small pieces of bread as it is passed around. In a restaurant, it is normal to pay for your food by putting your money on the plate the bill comes on. 72. Who will find the text most helpful? A. Host families. B. British travelers. C. Newcomers in Britain. D. Waiters in a restaurant. 73. Which of the following can be considered proper table manners in Britain? A. Cutting butter into small pieces. B.

AArriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.He reported the case to the police and then sat there，lost and lonely in strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was tryin g to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can〔垃圾桶〕that had been left out on the footpath.My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.1.What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?A. Go shoppingB. Find a houseC. Join his familyD. Take a vacation2.The girl’s parents got Rashid’s phone number from.A. a friend of his familyB. a Sydney policemanC. a letter in his papersD. a stranger in Sydney3.What does the underlined word “restored〞in the last paragraph mean?A. ShowedB. Sent outC. DeliveredD. Gave back4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. From India to Australia.B. Living in a New Country.C. Turning Trash to Treasure.D. In Search of New Friends.BSince the first Earth Day in 1970, American have gotten a lot “greener〞toward the environment. “We didn’t know at that time that there even was an environment, let alone that there was a problem with it,〞says Bruce Anderson, president of Earth Day USA.But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement. Business people, political leaders, university professors, and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement. “The understanding has increased many, many times,〞says Gaylord Nelson, the former governor from Wisconsin, who thought up the first Earth Day.According to US government reports, emissions (排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons. The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9. Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with, the world is a safer and health ier place. A kind of “green thinking〞has become part of practices.Great improvement has been achieved. In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs; today in 1995 there are about 6,600. Advanced lights, motors, and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.Twenty–five years ago, there were hardly any education programs for environment. Today, it’s hard to find a public school, university, or law school that does not have such a kind of program.〞Until we do that, nothing else will change! 〞say Bruce Anderson.5.According to Anderson, before 1970, Americans had little idea about .A. the social movementB. recycling techniquesC. environmental problemsD. the importance of Earth Day6.Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?A. The grass–roots levelB. The business circleC. Government officialsD. University professors7.What have Americans achieved in environmental protection?A. They have cut car emissions to the lowestB. They have settled their environmental problemsC. They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.D. They have reduced pollution through effective measures.8.What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last paragraph?A. EducationB. PlanningC. Green livingD. CO reductionCOne of the latest trend〔趋势〕in American childcare is Chinese au pairs. Au Pair in Stanford, for example, has got increasing numbers of requests for Chinese au pairs from zero to around 4,000 since 2004. An d that’s true all across the country.“I thought it would be useful for him to learn Chinese at an early age〞Joseph Stocke, the managing director of a company, says of his 2-year old son. “I would at least like to give him the chance to use the language i n the future,〞After only six months of being cared by a 25-year-old woman from China, the boy can already understand basic Chinese daily expressions, his dad says.Li Drake, a Chinese native raising two children in Minnesota with an American husband, had another reason for looking for an au pair from China. She didn’t want her children to miss out on their roots. “Because I am Chinese, my husband and I wanted the children to keep exposed to (接触) the language and culture.〞she says.“Staying with a native s peaker is better for children than simply sitting in a classroom,〞says Suzanne Flynn, a professor in language education of children. “But parents must understand that just one year with au pair is unlikely to produce wonders. Complete mastery demands continued learning until the age of 10 or 12.〞The popularity of au pairs from China has been strengthened by the increasing numbers of American parents who want their children to learn Chinese. It is expected that American demand for au pairs will continue to rise in the next few years.9.What does that term “au pair〞in the text mean?A. A mother raising her children on her own.B. A child learning a foreign language at home.C. A professor in language education of children.D. A young foreign woman taking care of children.10.Li Drake has her children study Chinese because she wants them .A. to live in China some day.B. to speak the language at home.C. to catch up with other children.D. to learn about the Chinese culture.11.What can we infer from the text?A. Learning Chinese is becoming popular in America.B. Educated woman do better in looking after children.C. Chinese au pairs need to improve their English skills.D. Children can learn a foreign language well in six months.DMetro Pocket GuideMetrorail (地铁)Each passenger needs a farecard to enter and go out.
