When thinking about quitting smoking, you should list all the reasons why you want to quit. Every night before going to bed, repeat one of the reasons 10 times. Decide positively that you want to quit. Try to avoid negative thoughts about how difficult it might be. Develop strong personal reasons as well as your health and responsibility to others. For example, think of all the time you waste taking cigarette breaks, rushing out to buy a pack, hunting for a light, etc. Set a date for quitting—perhaps a special day like your birthday or a holiday. If you smoke heavily at work, quit during your vacation. Make the date sacred seriously, and don´ t let anything change it. Begin to condition yourself physically: start a modest exercise: drink more water: get plenty of rest. The first few days after you quit, spend as much free time as possible in places where smoking is prohibited like libraries, museums, theatres, department stores, etc. Drink large quantities of water and fruit juice. Try to avoid wine, coffee, and other drinks which remind you of cigarette smoking. Strike up a conversation with someone instead of a match for a cigarette. If you miss the sensation of having a cigarette in your hand, play with something else—a pencil, a pen or a ruler. If you miss having something in your mouth, try a toothpick or a fake cigarette. 第41题Which of the following statements is best supported by the author?A.Whenever you feel like a cigarette, try to forget it by starting a conversation with someone.B.Try to be an ice-breaker before asking for a light.C.If you miss the sensation of having a cigarette in your mouth, play with a pen.D.Every night before going to bed, repeat the reasons 10 times.第42题From the passage, we know smokers______.A.waste a lot of time smokingB.have to quit smoking from time to timeC.can only quit smoking during their holidayD.start a modest and easy exercise第43题The author suggested______.A.all kinds of drinks be avoided immediately after quittingB.drinking water and fruit juice instead of wine, coffee and other drinksC.trying low-tar cigarettes immediately after quittingD.spending as much time as possible in public places第44题The best title for this passage is______.A.Smoking Is HarmfulB.Do Not SmokeC.Smoking Is Difficult to QuitD.How to Quit Smoking第45题If the article is in a newspaper, which section is it in?A.Sports.B.News.C.Health.D.Culture.上一题下一题(46~50/共20题)Ⅱ.Reading Comprehension Directions: There are 4 passages in this part, each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.

I suppose that the most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention, and especially if it is given from the heart, When people are talking, there´s no need to do anything but receive them. Listen to what they´re saying. Care about it. Most times caring about it is even more important than understanding it. Most of us don´ t value ourselves or our love enough to know this. It has taken me a long time to believe in the power of simply saying "I´m so sorry. " when someone is in pain. One of my patients told me that when she tried to tell her story, people often interrupted to tell her that they once had something just like that happening to them. Her pain became a story about themselves. Eventually she stopped talking to most people. We connect through listening. When we interrupt what someone is saying to let them know that we understand, we move the focus of attention to ourselves. When we listen, they know we care.I have ever learned to respond to someone crying by just listening. In the old days I used to reach for the handkerchiefs, until I realized that passing a person a handkerchief may be just another way to shut him down, to take them out of their experience of sadness. Now I just listen. When they have cried all they need to cry, they find me there with them. This simple thing has not been that easy to learn. It certainly went against everything I had been taught since I was very young. I thought people listened only because they were too shy to speak or did not know the answer. But now I know that a loving silence often has far more power to heal than the kindest words.第46题What does the author value most in the communication with each other?A.Deep understanding.B.Saying " I´ m sorry. "C.Attention from heart.D.Doing nothing.第47题The woman´ s patient stopped telling her story to most people because______.A.she didn´ t get enough respect from othersB.she was discouraged by being often interruptedC.people often told her their own opinionsD.people couldn´ t understand her sad situation第48题If you hand a handkerchief to someone crying, you may______.A.hurt his feelingsB.make him embarrassedC.encourage him to continue to cryD.stop him from letting out his sorrow第49题It can be inferred from the passage that while communicating, ______.A.listening is a perfect way to respond to othersB.people keep silent because they don´ t know the answerC.keeping silent means being too shy to speakD.it is easy to form the habit of listening silently第50题Which of the following might be the author´s opinion about communication?A.Keep silent.B.Just listen.C.Be careful.D.Tell your own story.上一题下一题(51~55/共20题)Ⅱ.Reading Comprehension Directions: There are 4 passages in this part, each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.

Many families in the United States have a larger income now than ever before, but people are finding it difficult to make ends meets anyway. Almost everyone is wondering, "What happens to all my money? I never seem to have anything left to put away. " Why isn´ t a dollar worth as much as it used to be? One dollar is always worth the same amount, that is, 100 cents. But the value of a dollar is how much it can buy. The value of money depends on the cost of living. Economists say that the cost of living is the money that a family must pay for the necessities of life such as food, housing or rent, clothes and medical expenses. For many years now, the cost of living has increased greatly, so the value of the dollar has decreased. When a dollar, has a low value, you cannot buy as many things with it. No one fully understands why the cost of living keeps increasing, but economists believe that workers and producers can make prices go up. As workers earn more money, they have more money to spend, so they demand more goods. If there is a great demand for certain goods, the prices of these goods go up. At the same time, if there´ s a shortage of goods, the price also goes up. For example, if everyone wants to buy more and more gas, the price of gas goes up. When companies withhold gas from buyers, they can also make the price of gas go up. Families need to know what happens to their money. They need to make their income meet the cost of living, so many people plan a family budget. A budget is alist of monthly expenses. If your expenses add up to more than your income, you must find ways to save money. Maybe you´ re spending too much on entertainment. Or if you´ re spending too much on clothes, you may want to sew your own clothes. Budgeting helps you spend your money wisely as the cost of living increases.第51题What has troubled many families in the United States?A.A not-large-enough income.B.Nothing is left over to put away.C.The increasing cost of living.D.A shortage of certain goods.第52题Why does the cost of living keep increasing?A.There are always shortages of goods.B.The workers are getting lower and lower pay.C.The government makes no difference.D.People demand more goods.第53题Which of the following is TRUE?A.Housewives needn´ t know anything happening to the market.B.People´ s lives are affected by the value of money.C.There seems no need for everyone to know about the rising cost of living.D.The prices will go up if more goods are produced.第54题According to the passage, when people find it hard to make ends meet, they need to ______.A.find ways to save money.B.do extra work to earn more moneyC.try some other means of making moneyD.raise a protest against the high cost of living第55题Budgeting helps_____.A.one to make his income meet the cost of livingB.the government to battle the rising cost of livingC.merchants to produce more goodsD.the workers to earn more money上一题下一题(56~60/共20题)Ⅱ.Reading Comprehension Directions: There are 4 passages in this part, each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.16. In a survey conducted by research firm Harris Interactive, 71% of Americans said that spending extra money on travel during the holiday season is worthwhile—so long as it affords them time with family and friends. But just because traveling may be the right thing to do, that doesn´ t mean it has to be the expensive thing to do. Traveling involves many hidden costs that, once you´ re aware of them, are easy to spot—and even easier to eliminate. To start, consider。

It turns out that the apartment's owner is a minimalist who chooses to limit his number of belongings.Minimalism goes against consumer society by dramatically reducing possessions.Minimalists follow this philosophy to varying degrees,but they generally claim that cutting back on excess stuff leads to a more fulfilling life. With fewer possessions,they do not have to spend so much time cleaning,thinking about what they are minimizing,or trying to keep up with the latest trends.Minimalists say this frees up their time for things meaningful such as exercising,traveling,and being with loved ones. Extreme minimalism is not for everyone,but a mild form of it has gained in popularity recently,thanks to Marie Kondo's best-selling book The life-changing magic of tidying up.Kondo has become distinguished for her tidying skills,which she developed naturally.One of her main belongings is that one should only own things that one truly loves. It can be unpleasant to part with belongings,but Kondo's methods have helped minimalists remove useless things.Her technique for making space is to go through things by category,starting with clothing,then books,papers,tiny objects,and finally,memorable items.She instructs her followers to touch each object they own and keep only those that spark joy,promising that this will lead to domestic happiness. Kondo stresses that it is not about throwing thingsaway,but about finding the things you want to remain with you and striking a balance between personal joy and possessions.Even if you are not ready to become a minimalist,you may want to consider reducing the number of things you own for it seems that letting go of things can truly make room for happiness. Paragraph 1 describes a person who probably .A.loves decorative objectsB.cannot afford the essentialsC.chooses to live a simple lifeD.has a passion for counting his clothes37.The New York Times states that cheerleading(啦啦队)is the fast growinggirl’s sport, yet more than half of Americans do not believe it is a sport. For them, cheerleading is just leading cheers. If the girls are doing dances on the sidelines(球场边)or they’re holding a sign trying to get a crowd response,that technically would’t be considered a sport. While sideline cheerleaders’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, the competitive cheerleaders are playing to win.A sport, according to the Association of Cheerleading Coaches and Advisers, is a physical activity or competition against or with an opponent(对手),governed by rules and conditions under which a winner is declared, and the primary purpose of the competition is a comparison of the relative skills of the participants. Because competitive cheerleading follows these guidelines, it is a sport.Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activities. Like gymnasts (体操运动员), cheerleaders must learn to tumble(翻跟头). They perform standing back flips(蹦跳), round flip flops, and full layout twists.Cheerleaders also perform lifts and tosses. This is where the fliers are thrown in the air, held by bases in different positions that require strength and cooperation with other teammates.Just as basketball and football have guidelines for competitive play, so does competitive cheerleading. The whole routine has to be completed in less than 3 minutes and 15 seconds and the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area.Competitive cheerleaders’ goal is to be the best. Just like gymnasts, they are awarded points for difficulty, technique, creativity and sharpness. The more difficult a stunt(绝技), the sharper and more in-sync(同步的), the higherscore they can get. Cheerleading is a team sport so without cooperation andsynchronization(同步), first place is out of reachAccording to the passage,()cheerleading is a sportA.fast-growingB.sidelinepetitiveD.physical38.50.____()六、作文(1题)39.1.目前,越来越多的大学生做兼职。

After many revisions, a board game was developed. It was an exciting time. Our dream seemed to come true with sales starting to accumulate, and our company was also 54. 55, a new board game suddenly56market and made great progress in sales. Eventually, the company was dissolved.Perhaps for game developers, the57 emotions it was never meant to happen will dominate their future dreams of58 a different life.

If I had never transferred my dream, there60 valuable lessons to be learned from the failure. It may take many61, but success is achieved. Once dreams are62 action, former failure becomes a better action plan in future. The important63 here is that success only comes by turning dreams into reality, and realizing that64 are only stepping-stones to final success. After many attempts, many failures, many lessons and many false starts, learn65 lessons from failures, turn dreams into reality, and don't let a dream only be a dream, and then success will arrive at last51.()A.whatB.whereC.whenD.how18.58.()A.trueB.realC.virtualD.practical19.52.()A.approachB.wayC.methodD.means20.The first day my new teacher stood in front of the class,I burst into laughter.

He was blind for nearly a month. But he went on experimenting, increasing the length of time during which he looked into the sun, knowing that in the end this would cost him his sight. At the age of 42 he was completely and incurably blind: the sun had destroyed the retina(视网膜) of his eyes. But he continued to work as well as he could until he died at the age of 82.Science profited enormously from his research. He studied the so-called "inertia of the eye (视觉暂留 )" which makes a picture remain on the retina for about one-sixth of a second after it has disappeared from our vision. This means that, if we see a succession of individual pictures each of which appears only for a fraction of a second, they " overlap" in our brain: and if they show consecutive phases of movement, that movement will appear to us to be continuous.41 Plateau' s experiments were the first step leading to the invention of______.(A)eyeglasses(B)telescopes(C)bifocals(D)motion pictures42 The result of Plateau' s first experiment was that______. (A)he went permanently blind(B)he stopped staring into the sun(C)he went blind for a month(D)he found what he was looking for43 A picture remains on the retina for______.(A)6 seconds(B)1 second(C)16 seconds(D)1/6 of a second44 The images that we see are recorded in______.(A)the brain(B)the eye(C)the retina of eye(D)the pupil45 Motion pictures______.(A)cause inertia of the eye(B)show a succession of unrelated movement(C)show consecutive phases of movement which appear continuous(D)show each phase of movement for one-half of a second45 Persons who are overweight should watch their diet carefully in order to lose pounds. The best way to do this is to start a weight control program. At first it is wise to talk with your doctor. He can advise you of the number of calories (卡路里) you should have in your meals each day. He can tell you about exercising while on your diet. A good rule is to lose slowly. A loss of a pound or two is plenty.Plan meals around foods you know. This means that it is wise to include foods that you are used to and that are part of your regular eating habits. When you have lost the weight you wish, simple items can be added to your diet so that you can maintain the weight you want. While you are dieting, try to build a pattern of eating that you can follow later to maintain your desired weight.When dieting, choose low-calorie foods. Avoid such items as fats, fried food, sweets, cakes, cream and soft drinks. Try to take coffee and tea without sugar or cream. Snacks can be part of your diet. For example, a piece of fruit or a simple dessert saved from mealtime can be eaten between meals.Keep busy! This way you will not be tempted to go of the diet. Make full use of opportunities to exercise. Try walking instead of riding whenever possible. Happy dieting!46 What is the main idea of the passage?(A)How to diet.(B)Why we should diet.(C)What we should diet.(D)Where we should diet.47 While dieting you should______.(A)choose fried foods(B)choose low-calorie foods(C)choose snack as hamburger in McDonalds(D)talk to your doctor48 When you have lost the weight you wish, you can______.(A)have some more simple items in your diet(B)eat more and more foods you like(C)stop dieting(D)tell the doctor what you' ve done49 According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?(A)While dieting, you should ask the doctor so that you can lose your weight quickly. (B)Overweight persons should watch their diet carefully so as to lose pounds.(C)When dieting, you can have some coffee and tea without sugar or cream.(D)As you are dieting, don't forget exercise.50 If you want to start a weight control program, you should______.(A)ask your doctor(B)plan meals and choose low-calorie foods(C)do some exercise(D)all of the above50 Specialists in marketing have studied how to make people buy more food in a supermarket. They do all kinds of things that you do mot even notice. For example, the simple, ordinary food that everybody must buy, like bread, milk, flour, and vegetable oil, is spread all over the store. You have to walk by all the more interesting and more expensive things in order to find what you need. The more expensive food is in packages with bright colored pictures. This food is placed at eye level so you see it and want to buy it. The things that you have to buy anyway are usually located on a higher or lower shelf. However, candy and other things that children like are on lower shelves. One study showed that when a supermarket moved four products from floor to eye level, they were sold 78 percent more.Another study showed that for every minute a person is in a supermarket after the first half hour, she or he spends $50. If someone stays forty minutes, the supermarket has an additional $5. So the store has a comfortable temperature in summer and winter, and it plays soft music. It is a pleasant place for people to stay and spend more money.Some stores have red or pink lights over the meat so the meat looks redder. They put light green paper around lettuce (生菜) and put apples in red plastic bags.So be careful in the supermarket. You may go home with a bag of food you were not planning to buy. The supermarket, not you, decided you should buy it.51 Marketing specialists study______.(A)plants suitable for human needs(B)how to build shelves(C)method of selling more products(D)how to own supermarkets52 The more expensive kind of food is______.(A)in bright-colored packages(B)on high shelves(C)all near the front of the store(D)on lower shelves53 According to the selecting, children' s books are probably______. (A)on low shelves(B)on high shelves(C)spread all over the store(D)sold in supermarket54 A supermarket plays soft music because______.(A)people like to listen to it(B)the store has a comfortable temperature(C)it will make people spend more money(D)it will remind people to buy the things they want55 A good way to save money in a supermarket is to______.(A)go just before dinner(B)buy things that are in the prettiest packages(C)walk around and see what you need(D)make a list of what you need before you go55 We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed—no examination is perfect—but to have no tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in school or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the values and the purpose of each teacher.Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them—a form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he is suitable for a job, while the lack of a certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his school' s reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored school.The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.56 The word "it" in paragraph 1 refers to______.(A)equality(B)the society(C)the school(D)the examination system57 Those who support examinations believe that without examinations, ______.(A)there will be no equality nor standards(B)the bright child will have no opportunity(C)the employers will favor the dull child(D)schools for bright children would lose their reputation58 The word "favoritism" in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that______. (A)bright children usually get better jobs(B)poor children with certificates are favored in job markets(C)children attending ordinary schools achieve great success(D)children from well-respected schools will have good jobs59 Those who are against the examination system will agree that ______.(A)pupils shouldn't be divided into "the bright" and "the dull"(B)special classes are necessary to keep the school standards(C)school reputation is important in the job market(D)family background is important in the job market60 The passage mainly focuses on______.(A)schools and certificates(B)examinations and equality(C)opportunity and employment(D)standards and reputation二、Cloze60 The tourist bus winded its way into a mountainous area.

Reading Comprehension(60 points)Directions: There are 4 reading 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.Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.One of their obligations is to give them a sense of personal worth, for self esteem is the basis of good mental health. A youngster, who is constantly made to feel stupid and unworthy, constantly compared to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins, will become so unsure, so afraid of failing, that he or she won’t try at all. Of course, they should be corrected when they do wrong; this is the way children learn. But the criticisms should be balanced with praise, preferably with a smile or a kiss. No child is ever too old to be hugged.Parents own their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself; it’s like being in a car without brakes. The parent who says “No” when other parents say “Yes” sends a double message. He is also saying “ I love you, and I am ready to risk your anger because I don’t want you to get into trouble”.Parents owe their children some religious training. The fact that so many strange worships are enjoying success is proof that children feel the need for something spiritual in their life.Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body, and enough information about sex to balance the misinformation that they will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy and respect for their personal belongings. This means not borrowing things without permission, not reading diaries and mail, not looking through purses, pockets and drawers. If a mother feels that she must read her daughter’s diary to know what is going on, the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others; it means being respectful to elders, to teachers, and to the law. The best way to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will think that it is right to steal. A youngster who sees no laughter and no love in the home will have a difficult time laughing and loving.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owe the child something. And if you give him your beliefs, he’ll have something of value to pass along to your grandchildren.31. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that a child _______ .A. must develop himself in his own wayB. will be spoilt if he is given too many criticismsC. will have less confidence if he has little self esteemD. should be always compared with his brothers or sisters in intelligence32. The refusal by the parents as to something not wise for a child implies _______ .A. his future hate to themB. deep love for himC. a risk for themD. a warm hug33. Which of the following is true?A. Children also have religious needs.B. Children should have no privacy to their parents.C. It’s better that a child can be in charge of himself.D. Parents should not hold their child in arms after he has grown up.34. If parents lie to their child, he will probably _______ .A. refuse the truthB. rely on other peopleC. lie to the people aroundD. have a difficult time laughing and loving35. This passage can be best entitled “ _______ ”.A. Information about Children’s Needs of ParentsB. Duties for Parents to Their childrenC. Mental Health for ChildrenD. How to Guide ChildrenQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:As we have seen, the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors, such as poor eating habits, smoking, and failure to exercise. The line of thought involved in this shift can be pursued further. Imagine a person who is about the right weight , but does not eat very nutritious(有营养的) foods, who feels OK but exercises only occasionally, who goes to workevery day, but is not an outstanding worker, who drinks a few beers at home most nights but does not drive while drunk , and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts, but sleeps a lot and often feels tired. This person is not ill. He may not even be at risk for any particular disease. But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier.The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely “ not ill” and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’s special needs. Both types have simply been called “well”. In recent years, however, some health specialists have begun to apply the terms “well” and “wellness” only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health. People who are well are concerned with nutrition and exercise and they make a point of monitoring their body’s condition. Most important, perhaps, people who are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people who have a physical disease or handicap (缺陷) may be “well,” in this new sense, if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physical limitations. “Wellness” may perhaps best be viewed not as a state that people can achieve, but as an ideal that people can strive for. People who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes. And by focusing attention on healthy ways of living, the concept of wellness can have a beneficial impact on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life.36. Today medical care is placing more stress on _______ .A. keeping people in a healthy physical conditionB. monitoring patients’ body functionsC. removing people’s bad living habitsD. ensuring people’s psychological well being37. In the first paragraph, people are reminded that _______ .A. good health is more than not being illB. drinking, even if not to excess, could be harmfulC. regular health checks are essential to keeping fitD. prevention is more difficult than cure38. Traditionally, a person is considered “well” if he _______ .A. does not have any unhealthy living habitsB. does not have any physical handicapsC. is able to handle his daily routinesD. is free from any kind of disease39. A ccording to the author, the true meaning of “wellness” is for people _______ .A. to best satisfy their body’s special needsB. to strive to maintain the best possible healthC. to meet the strictest standards of bodily healthD. to keep a proper balance between work and leisure40. According to what the author advocates, which of the following groups of people would be considered healthy?A. People who have strong muscles as well as slim figures.B. People who are not presently experiencing any symptoms of diseaseC. People who try to be as possible, regardless of their limitations.D. People who can recover from illness even without seeking medical care.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:One of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admit one’s mistakes. It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like “I was wrong about that ” it is even harder to say “I was wrong, and you were right about that”.I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago. He told me he had been the manager of a certain grocery store in the neighborhood where I grew up, and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons. Then he related an incident and I began to remember vaguely the incident he was describing.I was about eight years old at that time, and I had gone into the store with my mother to do the weekly grocery shopping. On that particular day, I must have found my way to the dairy food department where the incident took place.There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there was in impressive display of eggs in dozen and half dozen cartons. The cartons were stacked three or four feet high. I must have stopped in front of a display to admire the stacks. Just then a woman came by pushing her grocery car and knocked off the stacks of cartons. For some reason, I decided it was up to me to put the display back together, so I went to work.The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened. When he appeared, I was on my knees inspecting some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken, but to him it looked as though I was the culprit. He severely reprimanded me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs. I protested my innocence and tried to explain, but it did no good. Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident, apparently the manager did not.41. How old was the author when he wrote this article?A. About 8 years old.B. About 18 years old.C. About 23 years old.D. About 15 years old.42. Who was to blame for knocking off the stacks of cartons?A. The author.B. The manager.C. A woman.D. The author’s mother.43. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The woman who knocked off the stacks of cartons was seriously criticized by the manager.B. The author was severely criticized by the manager.C. A woman carelessly knocked off the stacks of cartons.D. It was the author who put the display back.44. Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?A. It’s Harder to Admit One’s Mistake.B. I Was Once the Culprit.C. I Remember an Incident.D. A Case of Mistaken Identity.45. The tone of the article expresses the author’s _______ .A. admiration for the manager’s willingness to admit mistakesB. anger to the manager for his wrong accusationC. indignation against the woman who knocked off the stacks of cartonsD. regret for the mistake he make in the storeQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living inapartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which is the wage that employers must pay, increases. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.46. There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may________.A. cause a shortage of apartmentsB. worry those who rent apartments as homesC. increase the profits of landlordsD. encourage landlords to invest in building apartment47. We can safely say that rent control ________.A. will always benefit those who rent apartmentsB. is unnecessaryC. will bring negative effects in the long runD. is necessary under all circumstances48. The problem of unemployment will arise ________.A. if the minimum wage is set too highB. if the minimum wage is set too lowC. if the workers are unskilledD. if the maximum wage is set49. The passage tells us ________.A. the relationship between supply and demandB. the possible results of government controlsC. the necessity of government controlD. the urgency of getting rid of government controls50. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The results of economic decisions can not always be predicted.B. Minimum wage can not always protect employees.C. Economic theory can predict the results of economic decisions if other factors are not changing.D. Economic decisions should not be based on economic theory.得分评卷人Ⅲ.

When we are stressed, depressed, upset, or otherwise in a negative state of mind because we perceive that bad things keep happening to us, it is important to shift those negative thoughts to something positive. If we don’t, we will only attract more bad things. It is often very hard to think positive when so many things are negative, but I can assure you that someone, somewhere is worse off than you. We can choose to think differently by beginning with the smallest of steps37.Since few American professionals head out to settle elsewhere in the world, the brain drain of educated people severs only to widen the gap between the land of plenty and the lands of poverty38.他把房子卖了,这让他的妻子很恼火39.Chinese parents have frequently tended to pay too much attention to their children’s study, so that children don’t help them do the housework. Their only requirement for their children is to study hard, perform well in the exams, and go to a prestigious university. They believe it is good for their children, because in such a highly competitive society, only good results could ensure a promising future. Chinese parents also believe that parents will be honored if their children can achieve great success in society. Therefore, they are willing to sacrifice their own time, hobbies and interests, to create much better conditions for children40.我们应该摒弃那些对我们健康有害的习惯,如喝酒、吸烟等41.一个人成功与否主要取决于他有多勤奋42.The medical research indicates that staying in the air-conditioned room fora long time will cause people to fall ill easily43.我们是为了公司才这么做的,而不是为了我们自己五、阅读理解(10题)44.If we love sweet things, it’s probably due to ________()A.our body’s needsB.our parents’ influenceC.our basic instinctD.the taste of the food45.We can safely conclude that a student may fail in an exam if______()A.he cannot think properlyB.he can’t pay attention to itC.he is not worriedD.he is not full of energy46.The passage suggests that _______()A.our society asks far too much of teenage girlsB.teenage girls shouldn't be so perfect at schoolC.boys are always lazy ones rather than girlsD.American girls have less pressure than Chinese girls47.The word underestimates in Paragraph 3 means_______()A.exaggeratesB.points outC.assumesD.miscalculates48.The laser beam can be used____________()A.only in the areas of constructionB.to cure a patient of a diseaseC.in a few areas because it’s not so powerfulD.to do whatever people want to49.Passage 2We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen? When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck? When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we do look back, it's already too late.Why do we go wrong with our friends—or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don't really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone says to you, You are a lucky dog. That's being friendly. But there is a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see ithimself. But bringing in the dog bit puts you down a little. Whathe may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn't important. It's telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for a Saturday night.How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistakeAccording to this passage, the reason why we go wrong with our friends is that()A.even friends are annoyed when we check what they sayB.people usually state one thing and mean anotherC.we fail to listen carefully when others talkD.we tend to doubt what our friends say50.In the writer's opinion, children start learning to read ______()A.early and fastB.at different timesC.by a certain ruleD.from word games51.Hemingway was born in lllinois, his family took him as a boy on frequenthunting and fishing trips and so acquainted him early with the kinds of virtues (美德),such as courage and endurance, which were laterreflected in his fiction (文学作品)After high school. he worked as a newspaper reporter and then went oversea totake part in World War I. he After the war he lived for several years in Paris, where heconsidered themselvesa lost generation.It was not long before he began to publishon people, or contests, such as hunting or bullfighting , which demand staminaandcourage. Hemingway’s style of writing is striking ,His sentences are short, his wordssimple , Yet they are often filled with emotion . A careful reading can show us ,furthermore, that he is a master of the pause. That is , if we look closely , we see howthe action of his stories continues during the silences, during the times his characterssay nothing ,This action is often full ofmeaning ,There are times when the mostpowerful effect comes from restraint (适度).

He was blind for nearly a month. But he went on experimenting, increasing the length of time during which he looked into the sun, knowing that in the end this would cost him his sight. At the age of 42 he was completely and incurably blind: the sun had destroyed the retina(视网膜) of his eyes. But he continued to work as well as he could until he died at the age of 82.Science profited enormously from his research. He studied the so-called "inertia of the eye (视觉暂留 )" which makes a picture remain on the retina for about one-sixth of a second after it has disappeared from our vision. This means that, if we see a succession of individual pictures each of which appears only for a fraction of a second, they " overlap" in our brain: and if they show consecutive phases of movement, that movement will appear to us to be continuous.41 Plateau' s experiments were the first step leading to the invention of______.(A)eyeglasses(B)telescopes(C)bifocals(D)motion pictures42 The result of Plateau' s first experiment was that______. (A)he went permanently blind(B)he stopped staring into the sun(C)he went blind for a month(D)he found what he was looking for43 A picture remains on the retina for______.(A)6 seconds(B)1 second(C)16 seconds(D)1/6 of a second44 The images that we see are recorded in______.(A)the brain(B)the eye(C)the retina of eye(D)the pupil45 Motion pictures______.(A)cause inertia of the eye(B)show a succession of unrelated movement(C)show consecutive phases of movement which appear continuous(D)show each phase of movement for one-half of a second45 Persons who are overweight should watch their diet carefully in order to lose pounds. The best way to do this is to start a weight control program. At first it is wise to talk with your doctor. He can advise you of the number of calories (卡路里) you should have in your meals each day. He can tell you about exercising while on your diet. A good rule is to lose slowly. A loss of a pound or two is plenty.Plan meals around foods you know. This means that it is wise to include foods that you are used to and that are part of your regular eating habits. When you have lost the weight you wish, simple items can be added to your diet so that you can maintain the weight you want. While you are dieting, try to build a pattern of eating that you can follow later to maintain your desired weight.When dieting, choose low-calorie foods. Avoid such items as fats, fried food, sweets, cakes, cream and soft drinks. Try to take coffee and tea without sugar or cream. Snacks can be part of your diet. For example, a piece of fruit or a simple dessert saved from mealtime can be eaten between meals.Keep busy! This way you will not be tempted to go of the diet. Make full use of opportunities to exercise. Try walking instead of riding whenever possible. Happy dieting!46 What is the main idea of the passage?(A)How to diet.(B)Why we should diet.(C)What we should diet.(D)Where we should diet.47 While dieting you should______.(A)choose fried foods(B)choose low-calorie foods(C)choose snack as hamburger in McDonalds(D)talk to your doctor48 When you have lost the weight you wish, you can______.(A)have some more simple items in your diet(B)eat more and more foods you like(C)stop dieting(D)tell the doctor what you' ve done49 According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?(A)While dieting, you should ask the doctor so that you can lose your weight quickly.

They do all kinds of things that you do mot even notice. For example, the simple, ordinary food that everybody must buy, like bread, milk, flour, and vegetable oil, is spread all over the store. You have to walk by all the more interesting and more expensive things in order to find what you need. The more expensive food is in packages with bright colored pictures. This food is placed at eye level so you see it and want to buy it. The things that you have to buy anyway are usually located on a higher or lower shelf. However, candy and other things that children like are on lower shelves. One study showed that when a supermarket moved four products from floor to eye level, they were sold 78 percent more.Another study showed that for every minute a person is in a supermarket after the first half hour, she or he spends $50. If someone stays forty minutes, the supermarket has an additional $5. So the store has a comfortable temperature in summer and winter, and it plays soft music. It is a pleasant place for people to stay and spend more money.Some stores have red or pink lights over the meat so the meat looks redder. They put light green paper around lettuce (生菜) and put apples in red plastic bags.So be careful in the supermarket. You may go home with a bag of food you were not planning to buy. The supermarket, not you, decided you should buy it.51 Marketing specialists study______.(A)plants suitable for human needs(B)how to build shelves(C)method of selling more products(D)how to own supermarkets52 The more expensive kind of food is______.(A)in bright-colored packages(B)on high shelves(C)all near the front of the store(D)on lower shelves53 According to the selecting, children' s books are probably______.

The standards may be changed—no examination is perfect—but to have no tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in school or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the values and the purpose of each teacher.Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them—a form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he is suitable for a job, while the lack of a certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his school' s reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored school.The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.56 The word "it" in paragraph 1 refers to______.(A)equality(B)the society(C)the school(D)the examination system57 Those who support examinations believe that without examinations, ______.(A)there will be no equality nor standards(B)the bright child will have no opportunity(C)the employers will favor the dull child(D)schools for bright children would lose their reputation58 The word "favoritism" in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that______. (A)bright children usually get better jobs(B)poor children with certificates are favored in job markets(C)children attending ordinary schools achieve great success(D)children from well-respected schools will have good jobs59 Those who are against the examination system will agree that ______.(A)pupils shouldn't be divided into "the bright" and "the dull"(B)special classes are necessary to keep the school standards(C)school reputation is important in the job market(D)family background is important in the job market60 The passage mainly focuses on______.(A)schools and certificates(B)examinations and equality(C)opportunity and employment(D)standards and reputation二、Cloze60 The tourist bus winded its way into a mountainous area.
