Unfortunately，only very few can hope to become famous and rich．Talent is not enough，because show business is as competitive as any other business．Without a good manager，a performer can never hope to succeed．Fashion is important in this business, too．The best tailor in this world will never be a success if he makes old-fashioned clothes. In exactly the same way，a performer must change his act in order to follow the taste of the moment．This is true for all performers：actors，dancers and perhaps most of all，for singers.“Pop”stands for “popular”, and a pop singer has to work very hard to become popular. He must either give the public what they already want，or he must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention. Even when he has succeeded，and his CDs are sold everywhere，he cannot relax．Then he must work harder than ever to stay popular，because there are always younger singers trying to become famous and to steal some of the popularity．The life of a successful pop singer is not at all easy．He can only relax when he is alone because everythin he does is watched and reported in a special newspaper written for the fans．The fans are the most important people in the world for the singer．They buy his CDs or VCDs．They go to his concerts，and watch his MTV．And it is they who make the singer rich and famous．But they can be very annoying too．Sometimes their enthusiasm gets so wild and mad that they do anything to attract attention and their behavior is as uncontrolled as possible．They shout and cry very loudly during the performance．In order to get a “gift”：they steal everything from the singer：his handkerchiefs(手帕)，his T shirts，his toothbrush．They sometimes tear off buttons from the singer’s clothes，and they even cut off pieces of the unfortunate singer’s hair．Many singers have been forcedto hide，and some who have not been so lucky as to escape have almost nothing on at the end of their performance wth almost everything taken away．A pop singer has to spend a lot of money on clothes，because he must always look smart，or at any rate，different．He must have a luxurious car．And most important－he must always keep smiling for the benefit of his public．To keep his image young in his fan’s mind，he is not allowed to grow old．(10分)1、1.What is not mentioned as the important thing to be a success in the entertainment profession in the passage?（单选题）CA、Being talentedB、Having a good managerC、Getting the best tailorD、Following the taste of the moment.2、2.A successful pop singer must work even harder because___C________.（单选题）A、he cannot relaxB、he must find new ways of singingC、younger singers are catching upD、he must stay popular to stop young singers3、3.For a pop singer，the most important advantage of having fans is that_________D___.（单选题）A、they buy his CDs or VCDs．They go to his concerts，and watch his MTVB、they watch him and report everything he doesC、they shout and cry very loudly during the performanceD、they make him rich and famous4、4.According to the author，the fans______B___________.（单选题）A、are usually madB、can be very annoyingC、are thievesD、are very wild people5、5.The most important thing that a pop singer must do for the benefit of his public is to___A____.（单选题）A、keep smilingB、1ook smart or at least differentC、have an expensive carD、keep his image young2、Cynthia Woolly is called the Michael Jordan of women’s basketball．With the help and support of her mother，she made her way out of a Los Angeles ghetto(贫民窟)and into the world of women’s basketball．She is now a member of the Women’s National Basketball Association．She led her basketball team of the city to three championships in a row．Woolly says she haslearned many lessons from her mother．One was that you “step up” when your family needs you．As a result，today，she takes care of five children of her brother’s and sister’s，ranging in age from six to twenty．They now live in a better neighborhood and go to good schools. ‘‘I’m not providing these children with money, a nice house and good schools so that they will not have to know hardships in life and will make no efforts to make their life better. I am doing it so that they don’t have to start at a disadvantage．My mother started out at zero．With determination，she raised our family up．This is about me providing the next generation of my family with a better opportunity．This is about me stepping up.”Woolly says．She believes that she is doing the right thing for the children．To her great happiness，all the children are doing very well at school．(10分)1、1.From the first sentence of this passage，we know that Cynthia Woolly is_____D___in America．（单选题）A、Michael Jordan，the world-famous basketball playerB、Michael Jordan，the world-famous basketball playerC、an ordinary woman who plays basketball wellD、the best professional woman basketball playe2、2.Cynthia Woolly is now_______A________.（单选题）A、the team leader of a basketball teamB、the mother of five childrenC、playing for the Women’s National Basketball AssociationD、having a better opportunity to start again3、3.From the passage, we can come to the conclusion that Cynthia Woolly must have started her life______A__________. （单选题）A、at a disadvantageB、at the age of sixC、with determinationD、with good luck4、4.Which of the following statements is not true of Cynthia Woolly?（单选题）CA、She was raised up by her mother in a poor neighborhood in Los Angeles.B、Her mother was determined to bring her children out of poverty．C、She doesn’t want the younger generation of her family to know the hardships in life．D、 Following her mother’s teaching to “step up”，she helps and supports her family．5、5.The right thing that Cynthia Woolly believes she is doing for the younger generation of her family is ______B_____according to the passage．（单选题）A、giving them a lot of moneyB、providing them with a better opportunity to start withC、providing them with a nice house to live in in a better neighborhoodD、making them go to good schools3、Dear Folks，I’ve been here for about three weeks and already I have so much to tell you．New York is nothing like I thought．Compared to Lanzhou，the buildings are much taller，and the streets are less crowded．There aren’t as many people downtown because most people live in the suburbs．I haven’t seen anything yet．I guess it will take a lot more time than just a few weeks． As you know，I’m living in the dormitory．It isn’t as luxurious as a hotel，but it’s less costly than a room anywhere else．My roommate comes from Egypt，but she doesn’t speak English as well as I do．I think she’s worried about that．My first week of classes was not as easy as I had expected．The campus is so big that it was difficult to find the right building sometimes．But my professors seem to be OK，except they gave us a lot of work to do．I hope I can keep up．America doesn’t have the same kind of system as China，so it will take me time to catch on．Well，no matter how much I like it here，I really miss home．The food doesn’t taste all that good，and of course，I miss you and my room and all my friends．I don’t know if I can have the same type of friends as I did back home．Students in America seem less interested in their studies than my Chinese friends back in Lanzhou，and I think they like to have more fun. I’ll wait and see．But I do love you all and think of you all the time．Sometimes I even want to go home．But I know I must follow my route to finish my education．Please take care of yourselves and write to me soon．LoveYichen(10分)1、1.According to Yichen，New York___D___.（单选题）A、is just so bigB、has less peopleC、is full of buildingsD、1ooks very different from what she expected2、2.Yichen lives in a dormitory，because___A_______.（单选题）A、it is the cheapestB、it is luxuriousC、she can share it with someoneD、she can live on the campus3、3.The most difficult thing at the moment for Yichen in her learning is______C_.（单选题）A、to find the right classroom buildingB、not being able to speak good EnglishC、to keep up in a different learning environmentD、to do a lot of homework4、4.Yichen seems to be_____B________friends with American students（单选题）A、confident in makingB、1ess confident in makingC、unwilling to makeD、happy to make5、5.On her arrival in New York，Yichen compares things and people with those in___A_______（单选题）A、EgyptB、AmericaC、schoolD、Lanzhou完形填空题1、Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage．For each blank there are four choices markedA, B, C and D.You should choose the ONE answer that best completes the passage．Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Buck and his mother and all the men smoked tobacco and talked,___41___I ate and talked．They asked me about my life，and I told them that my family ___42___on a small farm in the State of Arkansas，and that my sister Mary Ann had run away to get married．My brother Bill left to look for her and___43___from again．My brothers Tom and Mort died，and no one remained in the family ___44___my father and me．He became so sick worrying about the disappearing family___45___he，too，died．The farm didn’t belong to our family，and I left and started ____46____ up the river until I fell ___47___ the large boat．They told me that I could live with them?that I could___48___a bed with Buck．They were a nice family，and the house was beautiful．I ___49___ such a fine house before．All of the furniture was of the latest style．I knew that they had spent much money furnishing the house；all of their dishes were___50___ the best quality.They owned many books，too，and fine paintings．That house had everything a person could want，and the food was good，too．(10分)1、41（单选题）AA、whileB、whenC、wheneverD、as2、42（单选题）DA、1ivesB、1iveC、has livedD、was living on3、43（单选题）CA、never heardB、never hearC、was never heardD、had never heard4、44（单选题）BA、andB、butC、soD、beside5、45（单选题）AA、thatB、whichC、whereD、whose6、46（单选题）DA、to travel upB、travel upC、to be travelingD、traveling up7、47（单选题）BA、behindB、offC、downD、for8、48（单选题）AA、shareB、admireC、useD、utilize9、49（单选题）DA、never sawB、has never seenC、have never seenD、had never seen10、50（单选题）CA、inB、forC、ofD、at2、Directions：There are 10 blanks in thefollowing passage．For each blank there arefour choices marked A，B，C and D．You should choose the ONE answer that best completes the passage．Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center．Plants are very important living things．Life could not go on if there____41____ no plants．This is because plants can make ___42____from the air, water and sunlight．Animal and man cannot do this．Animals and man get their food by eating plants and other animals. ____43____ animals and man need plants in order to live．This is why we find that there are so many plants around us．If you look carefully at the plants around you，you will find that there are many ___44__of plants．Most plants are green．There are two ___45___ types of plants，flowering plants and non-flowering plants．Flowering plants can make seeds．The seeds are ___46___by the fruits．Almost all the trees around us are flowering plants．Some fruits have one seed，two，or many more．But a few fruits have ___47___seeds at a11．An example of a fruit___48___seeds is the banana fruit．Most non-flowering plants grow from spores(孢子)instead of seeds．Some spores are so small and light that they can___49___in the air．When these spores___50___on wet and shady(阴的)places，they usually grow into new plants．(10分)1、41（单选题）BA、areB、wereC、hadn’tD、hadn’t been2、42（单选题）CA、meatB、vegetablesC、foodD、fruits3、43（单选题）AA、ThereforeB、OrC、ButD、Though4、44（单选题）DA、hundredsB、tonsC、rootsD、types5、45（单选题）BA、thousandB、mainC、usefulD、nice6、46（单选题）CA、bornB、protectedC、coveredD、hidden7、47（单选题）CA、fewB、bigC、noD、small8、48（单选题）AA、withoutB、withC、growingD、instead of9、49（单选题）DA、hangB、growC、fallD、float10、50（单选题）CA、floatB、1ieC、fallD、move。
