For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)In a new study, 186 four-year-old kids were given regular carrots and, on other lunch days, they were given the same vegetables renamed X-ray Vision Carrots. On the latter days, they ate nearly twice as many.The study suggests the influence of these names might persist. Children continued to eat about 50 percent more carrots even on the days when they were no longer labeled as anything special.The research, funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, was presented at the annual meeting of the School Nutrition Association in Washington, D.C..“Cool names can make for cool foods,”said the l ead authorBrian Wansink of Cornell University. “Whether it be …power peas?or …dinosaur broccoli trees?, giving a food a fun name makes kids think it will be more fun to eat. And it seems to keep working —even the next day,”Wansink said.Similar results have been found with adults. A restaurant study showed that when the Seafood Filet was changed to Romantic Hawaii, sales increased 28 percent and taste rating increased by 12 percent. “Same food, but different expectations, and a different experience,” said Wansink, author of “Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think.”The study was conducted in pre-schools, but the researchers believe the same naming tricks can work with children at home.“I?ve been using this with my kids,” said researcher Collin Payn e, “Whatever sparks(激发) their imagination seems to spark their appetite.”65. Those four-year-old kids ate ________ when the carrots were renamed X-ray Vision Carrots.A. twice more carrotsB. nearly double carrotsC. about 50 percent more carrotsD. as many carrots as they used to66. According to the passage, _______ make(s) kids think it will be more fun to eat.A. power peasB. dinosaur broccoli treesC. fun names of foodD. cool foods67. The restaurant study didn?t show that ________.A. sales increased 28 percent when the name Romantic Hawaii was takenB. taste rating increased by 12 percent after the Seafood Filet was renamedC. same food would let people have a different experience with different namesD. the researchers got similar results when they work with children at home68. The purpose of the passage is to tell us ________.A. people prefer food with cool namesB. how to name the food which kids eatC. how to help kids eat in a healthy wayD. kids often imagine when they eat food(B)Putting Movies on MobilesMovies in the theater get their recognition at awards ceremonies such as the Oscars. But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm —the first mobile film festival.The first MoFilm competition received 250 entries from more than 100 countries. Entries were restricted to films that were five minutes or less in length — ideal for viewing and sharing on mobile phones. An independent jury then selected a shortlist of five film-makers. The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones.●New PlatformsThe awards highlight the increasing impact thatmobile phones are making in the entertainment industry.Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films.They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screentheir work. Therefore, mobile phones are increasinglybeing seen as a new platform for these short works.It is a good place for anyone who wants to express themselves and find a w ay to have that expression be seen by a wide audience. Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!●New Technology AdvancesMoFilm is pioneering content for mobile and online services that is a world away from Hollywood. The majority of films made for mobiles are now short in length, taking into account the screen size. However this could be overcome as technology advances.In the near future, longer films will likely be seen on the mobile phone. And there are mobile companies creating phones where users can watch movies at higher quality.Wherever you see movies, one thing is certain: the quality of work, the simple ability at story telling, and the thing that inspires someone to tell a story can really come from anywhere.69. At the first MoFilm, ________.A. movies in the theater got their recognitionB. more than 100 countries took part in the competitionC. ideal films were five minutes or less in lengthD. t he winner was chosen by experts? voting70. They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work. The underlined wordmeans “________”.A. disappointedB. surprisedC. frightenedD. encouraged71. Nowadays the majority of films made for mobiles areshort in length because of _______.A. online servicesB. the screen sizeC. technology advancesD. the mobile phone(C)When I stepped out the plane from Miami into Charlotte, North Carolina, airport for a connecting flight home, I immediately knew something was wrong. Lots of desperate people crowded the terminal. I quickly learned that flights headed to the Northeast were called offbecause of a storm. The earliest they could get us out of Charlotte was Tuesday. It was Friday. A gate agent stood on the counter and shouted, “Don?t ask us for help! We cannot help you!”I joined a crowd that ran from terminal to terminal in search of a flight out. Eventually, I found six strangers willing to rent a van with me. We drove through the night to Washington, where I took a train the rest of the way to Providence.The real problem, of course, is that incidents like this happen every day, to everyone who flies, more and more often. It really gets to me, though, because for eight years I was on the other side, as a flight attendant for Trans-World Airlines(TWA).I know the days are gone when attendants could be written up if we did not put the lines napkins with the TWA logo in the lower right-hand corner of the first-class diners? trays. As are the days when there were three dinner options on flights from Boston to Los Angeles in economy class. When, once, stuck on a tarmac (机场停机坪) in Newark for four hours, a planeload of passengers got McDonald?s hamburgers and fries bythoughtfulness of the airline.I have experienced the decline of service along with the rest of the flying public. But I believe everything will change little by little, because I remember the days when to fly was to soar (翱翔). The airlines, and their employees, took pride in how their passengers were treated. And I think the days are sure to come back one day in the near future.72.Many people crowded the terminal because ________.A. they were ready to board on the planesB. something was wrong with the terminalC. the flights to the Northeast were canceledD. the gate agent wouldn?t help the passengers73. The writer got to Providence ________ at last.A. by airB. by vanC. by trainD. by underground74. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. Incidents happened to those who fly quite often.B. The writer used to be a flight attendant for Trans-World Airlines.C. Even a small mistake might cause complaints from passengers in the past.D. McDonald?s hamburgers and fries were among regular dinner options.75. What can be implied from the passage?A. The writer lived in Charlotte, North Carolina.B. The writer thought the service was not as good as it used to be.C. The writer with other passengers waited to be picked up patiently.D. Passengers would feel proud of how they were treated on the plane.Section CDirection: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest words.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)From Buckingham Palace to Oxford, the UK is loaded with wonderful icons(标志) of past eras. But it has also modernized with confidence. It?s now better known for vibrant(充满活力的) cities with great nightlife and a ttraction. Fashions, fine dining, clubbing, shopping —the UK is among the world?s best.Most people have strong preconceptions about the British. But if you?re one of these people, you?d be wise to abandon those ideas. V isit a nightclub in one of the big cities, a football match, or a good local pub and you might more readily describe the English people as humorous and hospitable. It?s certainly true that no other country in the world has more bird-watchers, sports supporters, pet owners and gardeners than the UK.Getting around England is pretty easy. Budget airlines like Easyjet and Rynnair fly domestically. Trains can deliver you very efficiently from one major city to another. Long distance express buses are called coaches. Where coaches and buses run on the same route, coaches are more expensive (though quicker) than buses. London?s famous black cabs are excellent but expensive. Minicabs are cheaper competitors, with freelance (个体的) drivers. But usually you need to give a call first. London?s underground is called the Tube. It?s very convenient and can get you to almostany part of the city.The UK is not famous for its food. But you still need to know some of the traditional English foods. The most famous must be fish and chips. The fish and chips are deep fried in flour. English breakfast is something you need to try. It is fried bacon, with toast and a pot of tea. Other things like shepherd?s pie and Y orkshire pudding are also well-known as a part of English food culture.Pubbing and Clubbing are the main forms of English nightlife, especially for the young. Pubbing means going to a pub with friends, having drinks, and chatting. Clubbing is different from pubbing and includes going to a place of music, or a bar, or any other place to gather with friends. Clubbing can be found everywhere. Usually there is some kind of dress code for clubbing, such as no jeans, no sportswear, while pubbing is much more casual.76.If you are involved in the real life of local residents, you may find them______________________________.77.How many kinds of transportation forms are mentioned in the third paragraph? Giveexamples (at least four)._____________________________________________________________.78.When you go clubbing in the UK, you should not ______________________________.79.What aspects are introduced about UK according to the passage?_____________________________________________________________.Section DDirections: Read the follow ing text and choose the mostsuitable heading from the list A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A.Try writing with the wrong handB.Let yourself daydreamC.Develop your inspirationD.Discover your hidden talentsE.Record your dreamsF.Stimulate your senses80.Every night, for about 90 minutes, we drift into a strange, shadowy, magical world of our own creation. Poets, writers, artists and even scientists have found inspiration in their “dreamland”. Dreams are a message from the subcons cious, a way of tapping your inner self. Keep a note pad and pen by your bedside, and as soon as you wake, note down whatever snatches of dreams you can recall. Dreams can solve your problems, give you advice, reveal your true feelings, and be a source of inspiration.81.What are you aware of right now? Look at a familiar object in the room as if seeing it for the first time —explore it with your eyes. Next, listen intently to any sounds you can hear. What can you smell and taste at this moment? Touch whatever is within reach, run your hand over and around it —how does it feel? During the next few weeks activate all your senses. V isit an art gallery, walk in a pine forest, luxuriate in a second bubble bath, go to a concert, swim, have a massage. Try to experience it all as if it were totally new to you.82.If you?re right-handed, develop the skills of your left hand orvice versa —allow it to draw something, switch TV channels or drink a cup of tea. Try this exercise: write a list of ten adjectives which characterize your personality using the hand you usually write with. A few days later, repeat the exercise writing with the other hand. Then compare the two lists. Y ou might be surprised at the secrets of your inner self! For example, on the first list you might have written that you?re “witty”, but the second list might say “suspicious”. Then try a similar exercise, making two lists of “ What I would most like to do”.83.Have you ever longed to paint portraits or watercolors, write a novel, draw cartoons, compose a song, design your own clothes, set up a business or landscape your garden? If so, why not start now? Y es, you might discover that your fast efforts are laughable —but try, try again. With a few notable exceptions such as Mozart, most people haven?t develop ed their creative talents through sheer hard work. Don?t kid yourself that you haven?t any spare time. It?s a question of making time, of seeing your talents as important enough to devote a few hours to each week. Who knows —you might be the next Laura Ashley or Agatha Christie?84.Forget about being told off for daydreaming at school. Daydreaming is good for you! Whether it?s a purely fantasy, or a drea m about how life might be in the future, only the right-brain has visions of this kind. Creative visualization, vividly imagining whatever you desire as if it has already happened —and really believing in it, is said to be a powerful way of getting what you want. Many top sports people imagine themselves playing and winning —and it seems to work.第II卷（45分）I.

When I first started to read “Pride and Prejudice”, I thought the novel was going to be the same old 21 “love story”.

Do you ever get that 21 feeling in the mid-afternoon? The seventh Duchess of Bedford did, although she called it a “sinking feeling”.The Duchess decided the best way to combat(抗击) thelow period in the mid-afternoon was with something 22. So she invented one of Britain’s best 23 .Afternoon tea has many different names. People outsideof the UK call it English tea, cream tea or high tea.

What does the woman suggest the man do?[A]Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effects of conditions on man. Recent studies have shown that [26]the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior pattern and even their health perceptibly可察觉change. They cannot sleep and eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. [27]The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related。

Some people say they don’t recycle because the rules are too confusing and text is too difficult. Well, I am sure they still not assure about the whole program. The recycle is planned as simply as three-program: searching, collecting and delivering. The first part-searching is also the hardest one, most people don’t like to take the time to separate rubbish and this is usually why the most recycle programs fail.However, we have reasons to believe that all our works will work. From now on, instead of seeing the usual black rubbish cans all over the school, you will see three different color rubbish cans. Pink cans are for paper, blue cans are for bottles, and white ones are for all the other wastes. Just remember pink--paper; blue--bottle; white--waste. After the rubbish are sort, it needs to be collected and then taken to the recycling center. Since this recycle program at present is still a volunteering program, we ask for no more than 5 hours per person in each week and your job will be to collect all sorts of rubbish and take them to different center for each type of rubbish.If you like to help, please leave with me your name and telephone number and we’ll meet here for more details on 15th September right after school. Hope to see you then!。
