For instance, telephone and cell phone become so popular that you can anywhere if you want. Household electrical appliances free us from housework so that we can enjoy more leisure time. Modern transportation makes the world so small that you can travel by air from one city to another in a few hours which could take several days by trains.In spite the above benefits we gained from the development of science and technology, however, everyone now worries about the pressure modern life. As more and more machines are applied in our daily life, life pace keeps getting faster and the world is getting too complex. As we pursue more and more material things such as luxury cars, personal computers, big houses etc. our financial pressures are growing. As job markets become shrinking and job competition becomes intense, everyone worries about losing his job. What’s more, many people are now faced with the threat of terrorists or live in constant fear because of the unfair wealth distribution between the rich and the poor.Since human beings are largely a pleasure seeking and pain-avoiding creature, we never stop inventing things to release us from hard labor. And we also try our best to prove that we are the masters of our surrounding. Th at’s why our civilization keeps going fo rward and every new generation benefits from the efforts made by previous one. As high tech develops at a surprisingly high speed, we will gain more instead of suffering more and our future bright and promising.11. B 事实细节题。

第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Passage One - Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Bamboo is one of the nature’s most surprising plants. (81) Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass.Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1.5 meters in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains(平原).Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across.This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for building new buildings. Asa matter of fact, the cables(绳索) that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo. The bridge has been in use for more than 1,000 years, and is still holding strong.In Africa, engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use. Bamboo pipes and drills(钻) can help to make the poor thirsty fields to be watered.1. How is bamboo like grass?A. It is thin and easy to cut.B. It grows everywhere.C.

Bamboo can be used for buildings, bridges and watering projects(工程).D. Bamboo plants are able to grow well in any part of the world.Passage Two - Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Do you know Australia? Australia is the largest island in the world. It is a little smaller than China. It is in the south of the earth. Australia is big, but its population is not large. The population of Australia is nearly as large as that of Shanghai.The government has made enough laws to fight pollution. The cities in Australia have got little air or water pollution. The sky is blue and the water is clean. You can clearly see fish swimming in the rivers. Plants grow very well.Last month we visited Perth, the biggest city in Western Australia,and went to a wild flowers’ exhibition. There we saw a large number of wild flowers we had never seen before. We had a wonderful time. Perth is famous for its beautiful wild flowers.In spring every year Perth has the wild flowers’ exhibition. After visiting Perth, we spent the day in the countryside. We sat down and had a rest near a path at the foot of a hill. It was quiet and we enjoyed ourselves. Suddenly we heard bells ringing at the topof the hill. (82) What we saw made us pick up all our things and run back to the car as quickly as we could. There were about three hundred sheep coming towards us down the path.Australia is famous for its sheep and kangaroos(袋鼠).

If you go to the countryside in Australia, you will see a large number of white sheep.Passage Three - Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:(83) Many people influenced various aspects of my life, based on their personal characteristics, accomplishments, and values. I have been fortunate to have had numerous teachers and professors who I respect for their patience and intelligence. Of all the people I have known in my life, the person I admire most is my father.As th e youngest girl in my family, I always considered myself to be “Daddy’s little girl”. While I grew up, it always made me sad to see so many of my friends and neighbors without a father or father-like figure around. This helped me appreciate how my father a lways takes an interest in his children’s lives. In every aspect of my life my father continuously pushes me to excel, so I could accomplish my work outstandingly among my people. Whenever I feel like giving up, or have a question or a concern, I know I can always call on him for advice. From him I have also learned that sometimes you have to put others’ needs ahead of your own, but you should make sure you are not taken advantage of by others.His strength seems to be unbreakable during hard times, and he is extremely determined to accomplish anything he sets his mind on, no matter how tiny it is. I highly respect him for how he stands up for what he believes in, and will never back down. I have always admired his open mind,compassion for people, and sense of understanding. He is a very reserved man,but to everybody’s surprise, he has a great sense of humor, and always knows how to put a smile on the faces of his wife,his children and his friends.Living in his affection and instruction, I am very proud of my father. He also professes how proud he is of his children, and is still there to support us in whatever we are involved in.11. What is the best title for the passage?A. How my father loved meB.

The noise can be the sound of a jet airplane or machines in factories of loud music or other common sound at home and at work. A person only needs to hear the noise for little more than one second to be affected.An American scientist has found that using aspirin (阿斯匹林) increase the temporary (暂时的)hearing loss or damage from loud noise. He did an experiment using a number of students at a university who all had normal hearing. He gave them different amounts of aspirin for different periods of time, then he tested their hearing ability. He found that students who were given four grams of aspirin a day for two days suffered much greater temporary hearing loss than those who did not use aspirin. The hearing loss was about two times as great.(85) The scientist said millions of persons in the U.S. use much larger amounts of aspirin than were used in his experiment.

In the past, it was believed that the Earth was the center of the universe. This view, known as the geocentric model, was widely accepted until the 16th century when the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus proposed a new model. According to Copernicus, the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the universe. This heliocentric model was later supported by the observations of Galileo Galilei and the laws of planetary motion formulated by Johannes Kepler.The geocentric model was based on the idea that the Earth was stationary and all other celestial bodies, including the Sun, revolved around it. This belief was reinforced by the fact that the Earth's motion could not be detected by the naked eye. However, Copernicus argued that the Earth, along with other planets, revolved around the Sun. This idea was revolutionary at the time and challenged the established religious and scientific beliefs.Galileo's observations through his telescope provided evidence that supported the heliocentric model. He observed the phases of Venus, which could only be explained if Venus orbited the Sun, and the mountains on the Moon, which indicated that the Moon was not a perfect sphere as previously thought. Kepler's laws of planetary motion further supported the heliocentric model by describing the elliptical orbits of the planets around the Sun.The acceptance of the heliocentric model marked a significant shift in the understanding of the universe and laid the foundation for modern astronomy.问题:(1) What was the geocentric model based on?A. The belief that the Sun was the center of the universe.B. The belief that the Earth was stationary and other celestial bodies revolved around it.C. The belief that the Earth revolved around the Sun.D. The belief that the Earth was the center of the universe and moved.答案:B(2) Who first proposed the heliocentric model?A. Galileo GalileiB. Johannes KeplerC. Nicolaus CopernicusD. Isaac Newton答案:C(3) What evidence did Galileo provide to support the heliocentric model?A. The phases of MarsB. The mountains on the MoonC.

The motion of the Earth around the MoonC. The elliptical orbits of the planets around the SunD. The circular orbits of the planets around the Sun答案:C2. 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

It enables people to express themselves, as well as to entertain, in, and influence others. With only a few tools—paper, a typewriter, a pencil, and often a personal computer—a writer can have an impact on the surrounding world. But most authors spend hundreds of hours perfecting their skills before they can sell any of their works. A person who wants to be a writer should set aside some time to write every day. Learning to express ideas clearly and effectively in writing takes a greatdeal of practice. Many experienced writers keep a journal. A journal can serve as a storehouse for ination, observations, and ideas. It can also be a place to develop new material. Beginning writers should read many kinds of writing encountered every day and pay special attention to what they find most interesting. News items, feature stories, textbooks, cookbooks, repair manuals, poems, essays, short stories, novels, and plays differ in their s of organizing and presenting material. A beginning writer who reads widely and carefully will develop an appreciation of different writing approaches and styles. In time, the writer can acquire a more flexible approach to his or her own work. Successful authors write about subjects they know and understand. They sometimes take weeks or months revising or refining an article, poem, or story. Beginning writers usually benefit from finding one or more friendly critics who will read their work and discuss its strengths and weaknesses with them. High schools and colleges offer many learning opportunities for young writers. Composition and literature courses can be helpful. Creative writing and journalism courses may further assist a beginning writer in developing his or her skills. Many students work on literarymagazines, newspapers, or yearbooks published by their schools. They may write stories, edit articles, or gain other valuable experience. 21.

That is Rose, an eighty-seven-year-old lady who always wore a big smile on her face. “Why are you in college at this age?” I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age. “I always dreamed of having a college education and now I’m getting one!” she told me. Over the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she enjoyed being the center of attention from the other students. She was living it up! At the end of the semester, we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. She was introduced and stepped up to the stage. As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her speech cards on the floor. Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into the speaker and simply said, “I’m sorry I’m a bit nervous. I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me!” As we laughed Rose cleared her throat and began, “We do not stop laughing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. You have to laugh and find humor every day. You’ve got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it! Have no regrets. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we didn’t do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets. Finally, there is a huge difference between growing old and growing up. If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn twenty. This is growing old, by doing nothing to your life. The idea of growing up is to always find opportunity to change.” At the year’s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral. When you finish reading this, please send this peaceful advice to your friends and family: Remember, we cannot avoid growing old, but we can choose our own ways to grow up. 26. Why was Rose in college? A. Because she always wanted to have a college degree. B. Because she thought college was fun and she could make many friends. C. Because she has never gone to a college. D. Because she enjoyed being the center of attention from the other students. 27. According to para. 3, howdid Rose live her college life? A. She always dressed up and never attend any class. B. She was quiet and didn’t want to make any friends. C. She was easygoing and made lots of friends. D. She wasn’t making the best out of her college life. 28. How did she react when she dropped her speech note at the football banquet? A. She got very nervous and stopped speaking. B. She was drunk with too much whiskey. C. She had to give up beer for this mistake. D. She continued her speech with a joke. 29. What does Rose m ean by “so many people walking around who are dead and don’t even know it”?A. They are killed by them walking around.B. They are “dead” because they don’t have any dreams.C. They are “dead” because are they are not satisfied with their life.D. They are “dead” because they don’t know anything. 30. According to Rose, which one of the following is correct about the difference between “growing old” and “growing up”? A. Both mean the aging process where a child becomes a grown-up. B. Both mean lots of changes.C. “Growing old” is sad, but “growing up” is happy.D. “Growing old” is natural, but “growing up” is something we can control. Passage 3 Lovebirds. That’s what all our friends called us when we first married. I guess Don and I deserved it. Money wastight. Sometimes we’d have to save up days just for an ice cream cone. Still, our tiny apartment seemed like paradise. Love does that, you know. The more we heard the term “lovebirds”, the more we thought about birds. One day we started saving up for a couple of lovebirds of our own. We knew we couldn’t afford to buy both birds and a nice cage, so in his spare moments, Don made the cage himself. We put our cage in front of a shaded window. Then we waited until our little saving was full of bills and spare change. With that money we “adopted” a pair of canaries from our local pet store, a male and a female, and named them Sunshine and Snowball. Time passed, and when our young lovebirds finally seemed mature enough to start a family of their own, we went ahead and prepared a nest area and lots of nesting material for them. Snowball was a very exacting wife in designing and decorating their nest just so, while Sunshine, filled with love, bent over backward to put everything just where she ordered. Then one day an egg appeared. How they sang! And a few weeks later when a tiny chick hatched, their happiness seemed to know no bounds. I don’t know how it happened, but that baby bird was bright orange. So right off we named him Punkinhead. The sunny days passed. How proud all of uswere when our baby bird ran out of the nest onto a real grown-up perch! Then one day, Punkinhead suddenly fell head down to the bottom of the cage. The tiny orange bird just lay there, both parents and I rushed to his rescue. But he was dead. Just like that. Whether he’d had a heart attack before he fell or broke his neck in the fall, I’ll never know. But Punkinhead was gone. The mother bird refused to let either Sunshine or me get near that little body. Instead of the joyful melodies I usually heard from Snowball, now she gave only the most heartbreaking cries and moans. Her heart, joy and will seemed completely melted by her sorrow. Poor Sunshine didn’t know what to do. He kept trying to push Snowball away from her sad situation, but she refused to move. Instead, over and over she kept trying to wake up her beloved child. Finally Sunshine seemed to work out a plan. He convinced her to fly up and eat some seeds every so often, while he stood duty in her place. Then each time she left, he’d quietly place one piece of straw over Punkinhead’s body. Just one. But in a few days, piece by piece, it was completely covered over. At first Snowball seemed panic when she looked around, but she didn’t try to uncover the chick. Instead, she flew up to her normal place and stayed there. Then I was ableto quietly reach in and remove the little body. After that, Sunshine spent all his time comforting Snowball. Eventually she started making normal sounds, and then one day, her sorrow finally melted and she sang again. I don’t know if Snowball ever realized the quiet labor of love and healing Sunshine had done for her. But they remained devoted for as long as they both lived. Love does that, you know. 31.The title of the passage is “When Snowball Melted”. What does the title mean? A. The increasing temperature made the snowball melt. B. The bird called Snowball was too sad for her kid’s death so she became weaker and weaker. C. The grief born by the bird called Snowball for the death of her kid was dissolved by her husband’s love. D. The bird called Snowball was loved by her husband so it seemed like a snowball was melted. 32. Why did “our tiny apartment seemed like paradise” even though we were poor? A. Because we love our tiny apartment. B. Because the tiny apartment housed a couple in love. C. Because we kept two birds in love in the tiny apartment. D. Because our tiny apartment was clean and cozy. 33. In paragraph 4, why does the author use “‘adopted’a pair of canaries from our local pet store” instead of the word “buy”? A. “Adopted” is used here to show that thebirds are deserted by the store so the couple adopted them. B. “Adopted” is used here to show the couple’s love for the birds, while the word “buy”seemed to be cold and emotionless. C. “Adopted” is used he re to show that nobody wanted the birds so the couple were the only one who bought them. D. there is no special reason why “adopted” is used here. 34. What is the cause of Punkinhead’s death? A. He’d had a heart attack before he fell.B. He broke his neck in the fall.C. He was attacked by a cat.D. the cause of Punkinhead’s death is unknown. 35. Which of the following things were NOT what Sunshine did to comfort Snowball after the death of their kid? A. He kept trying to push Snowball away from her sad situation. B. He flew up to her normal place and stayed there. C. He convinced her to fly up and eat some seeds every so often, while he stood duty in her place. D. each time she left, he’d quietly place one piece of straw over Punkinhead’s body. Passage 4 They say there are three apples that changed the world. The first apple belongs to Adam, from the Garden of Eden. Yes, according to Christians, it was Adam’s apple that first changed humankind — the act of man disobeying to higher power that sets us apart by God. Adam’s story teaches us the importance ofsubmission. We are becoming more self-sustained and forget the cores of life — love, joy and peace. Families, friends and our beloved ones are often neglected when we become self-centered in our jobs and responsibilities. We need to be reminded to love and be loved, stand firm in love and cherish the goodness of other people in our lives. The second most influential apple didn’t come until the 15th Century. A man sat under the famous apple tree and the universe-consigned apple fell right on his head, leading him to the famous law of universal gravitation. Sir Isaac Newton’s apple changed the world of science as well as mathematics by stating that “every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force directed along the line of centers for the two objects.” and so on. The point here is, Newton’s apple has not only inspired him to come up with the law of gravitation, but also encouraged human to dream big and to explore the world with imaginations. Many other great people arose from Newton’s great works and findings. Last but bot least, it is of course Steve Jobs’Apple that has put the world on a different pace, in terms of his innovations in consumer electronics, computer software and personal computers. Jobs’ success stories took up each corner ofGoogle’s page after he passed away. The highlight is none other than his return to Apple after being kicked out of his own company in 1997. When he tried to lure John Sculley as Apple’s CEO, he asked,”Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water or do you want to change the world?” That obviously worked out pretty well. Yet, it was the passion towards innovation that Jobs has injected into his career that put him onto the top of the world. His life has definitely inspired many to contribute to the society through creativity. So here are three apples that changed our lives — three men at three totally different time of the history. How’s your apple coming along? 36. What are NOT the cores of life according to the text? A. faith B. joy C. peace D. love 37. Who are the ones we often neglected when we become self-centered in our jobs and responsibilities? A. Families.B.Friends.C. Our beloved ones.D. A, B and C 38. Which of the following statement are NOT one of the influences brought by Newton’s apple? A. Newton’s apple inspired Newton to come up with the law of gravitation. B. Newton’s apple reminded human to love and be loved, stand firm in love and cherish the goodness of other people in our lives. C. Newton’s apple encouraged human to dreambig. D. Newton’s apple encouraged human to explore the world with imagination. 39 Steve Jobs’ innovations are in the following fields but A. Consumer electronics. B. Computer software. C. Personal computer. D. Telecommunication. 40. According to the author, what put Steve Jobs onto the top of the world? A. His great success in the Apple products. B. He returned to Apple after being kicked out of his own company in 1997. C. His passion towards innovation in his career. D. He changed the world. III. Translation (20 points)(翻译) Direction:Translate the following sentences into Chinese. 41.You needn’t go there anymore. He already knows about it. 你不必去了。

Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Moon-cakes are a special Chinese food. They are very popular among Chinese people, home or abroad. Moon-cakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. To celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chinese people must do two things: enjoy the full moon and eat delicious moon-cakes. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the Lunar calendar. It is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. (81) In the eyes of the Chinese people, a moon-cake takes the shape of a round moon and thus symbolize s the reunion of all familymembers.Therefore, Mid-Autumn Festival is regarded as one of the most important to the Chinese people. It’s a good time for the whole family to be together. So on that day, everyone would try his best to get home. A big family dinner would be held in the evening, with the bright moon in the sky and the moon-cakes of all sorts at the table to express best wishes.The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed or red bean and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. Traditional moon-cakes are made with melted lard, but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health. Nowadays moon-cakes with different flavors and sizes are also being produced to cater for different consumer s’ requirement s.Moon-cakes are usually stamped with Chinese character s indicat ing the name of the bakery and the type of filling used. Some bakeries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give more personalize d moon cakes to friends and family. They are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon.Moon-cakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories.

It matters not what you inquire into, but when you once inquire into a thing, you must never give it up until you have thoroughly understood it. It matters not what you try to think out, but whenyou once try to think out a thing, you must never give it up until you have got what you want. It matters not what you try to carry out, but when you once carry out a thing, you must never give it up until you have done it thoroughly and well.If another man succeeds by one effort, you will use a hundred efforts.

That is almost 1 out of every 3 people in the United States. Some people go on ideas. This means they eat less certain foods, especially fats and sugars. Other people exercise with especial equipment, take diet pills, or even have surgery. Losing weight is hard work, and it can also cost a lot of money. So why do so many people in the United States want to lose weight?Many people in the United States worry about not looking young and attractive. For many people, looking good also means being thin. Other people worry about their health. Many doctors say being overweight is not healthy. But are Americans really fat?(83) Almost 30 million Americans weight at least 20 percent more than their ideal weight. In fact, the United State is the most overweight country in the world. “The stored fat of adult Americans weight 2.3 trillion pounds,”says University of Massachusetts anthropologist (人类学家) George Armelagos. He says burning off that stored energy would produce enough power for 900,000 cars to go 12,000 miles.Losing weight is hard work, but most people want to find a fast and easy way to take off fat. Bookstores sell lots of diet books. These books tell readers how to lose weight. Each year, dozens of new books like these are written. Each one boasts to help people to get rid of fat.11. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way oflosing weight?A.T o eat less fats and sugars. B.T o have surgery.C.T o take much exercise. D.To work hard.12.

It can be concluded from the passage that .A. people think too much of their appearanceB. there is not a sure way of losing weight as yetC. surgery is the fastest way of losing weightD. going on diet is a safe way of losing weightPassage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings.They point out that at a circus, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite skillfulthings. Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward. (84) The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get reward for doing them.(85) Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and soldiers in both old and modern times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories, In Russia, for example, pigeons, which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory. When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak (鸟嘴). This turns on a light to warn people in the factory. At the same time a few seeds are given as a reward. It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one pigeon can inspect 3,000 to 4,000 balls an hour.Apes(类人猿)have been used in American in helping to make cars, and scientists believe that these large monkeys maybe one day gather crops and even drive trains.Circus 马戏团goose 鹅pigeon鸽子1.

For each blank there are four choices. Choose the one that best fits into the passage and then marks your answer on the Answer Sheet.For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, tradepublications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 61 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 62 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 63 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 64 at an early age, and never get over them. The main defect 65 in the actual content of language itself - words. Taken individually, words have 66 meaning until they are connected together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. 67 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often falling back to 68 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 69 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 70 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 71 reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics(诊所) use a device called an 72 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 73 the reader finds c omfortable, in order to “stretch” him.The accelerator(速读器) forces the reader to read fast, 74 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 75 is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster,76 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found77 reading skill improved fast after some training. 78 Charlce Au,a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 79 the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute.

Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)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 and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.When Beverly Goodman was in elementary school, she gave a series of presentations on her favorite topic: disasters. She told her classmates about some disasters in history, for instance, the Titanic. Today, at 45, she’s a marine geoarchaeologist (地理考古学家) who explores coastlines for clues to erosion, past tsunamis (海啸), and other disasters. “It’s funny now that I’m a disaster scientist, basically,” she says. “It all came together.”Human settlements have long been built around access to water. Goodman studies how coastal change affected our ancestors: Were people forced to leave? Did they find innovative ways to adapt to the changes? This knowledge, she says, can help us “prepare responsibly for what this landscape is going to look like in the future.” That was t he case when Goodman and her team of scientists proved tsunamis had struck the coast of what is now Israel over the course of thousands of years. Partly as a result of their research, the country in 2014 developed its first tsunami preparedness plan.Humans are manipulating coastlines more dramatically than ever, says Goodman. To learn what effectthis will have, “we need to be working faster, and we need more people working on it.” She believes ancient clues buried underwater can save lives, particularly in places without written records.英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第1页(共10页)1.When Goodman was a little girl, she might be interested in ______.A. landscapesB. art and literatureC. science and technologyD. disasters in history2. According to the passage, her present job ______.A. is a disaster for herB. is well-known to ordinary peopleC. is closely related to her childhood interestD. has nothing to do with her childhood hobbies3. It can be learned from Paragraph Two that ______.A. where there is water, there are human beingsB. people usually settled down along watersC. people prefer to live in mountains areasD. people prefer to live along grasslands4. According to Goodman, which of the following in true?A. People need to pay more attention to coastline researchB. People show little interest in coastlines.C. People have no knowledge about coastlines.D. People have no written records about coastlines.5. The best title of this passage could be “______”.A. The Changes of the WorldB. The Coastal LandscapeC. Life Style of Ancient AncestorsD. Goodman's Underwater ResearchPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.One of the most common reasons why people don't succeed at introducing a permanent exercise habit in their lives is because their workouts are boring. They do the same things over and over again, and even if they work in the beginning, the body quickly adapts to them and stops responding to them in the same way as in the beginning.When the effectiveness drops down and a person gets tired of doing the same thing, the outcome is predictable: you no longer want to work out any more.That’s why I’m so strongly against any kind of structured fitness classes at the gym that you attend because you think it’s the only way to exercise.Seek something enjoyable and exciting that won’t feel like dreadful exercise. if you can't find it, keep looking until you do. Ultimately, it’s the only way to successfully maintain an exercise habit in your life.英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第2页(共10页)However, please note that even if you're doing something exciting, no matter how fantastic it is in the beginning, if you d on’t change your routine every now and then, it also might get boring. Mixing it up every now and then by focusing on a different aspect of the activity, doing it in a different place, with different intensity or with different people will boost your excitement, shock your body, and ensure that you’ll stick to physical activity for the long haul.6. Why do people fail to develop a good exercise habit? Because ______.A. people usually get bored of the same exerciseB. the exercises are tough to performC. people are too busy with their workD. there are lots of interesting exercises7. What might happen if people do the same exercise too many times?A. They might get excited.B. They might stop doing it.C. They might easily get hungry.D. They might lose their temper.8. The author’s attitude toward structured fitness classes is ______.A. supportiveB. appreciativeC. neutralD. negative9. According to the passage, which of the following helps develop a lifetime exercise habit?A. Attending gym classes.B. Joining a sports club.C. Keeping notes of your exercises.D. Trying enjoyable and exciting exercises.10. If you would like to keep a routine exercise lifelong, you’d better NOT ______.A. do it in a different place.B. do it on a regular basis.C. do it with different intensity.D. do it with different people.P assage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Everyone knows that the average human body temperature is 37℃- but everyone is wrong. It turns out that the bodies of people in the US have been cooling since the 1860s.Physicians studying body temperature have known for decades that 37℃was too high,says Julie Parsonnet at Stanford University in California, “But they've always thought that it was just measurement error in the past, not because temperature had actually dropped.”To find out what really happened, Parsonnet and her team combined three data sets. The first set covered nearly 24,000 Union Army veterans (老兵) from the American Civil War, whose temperatures were measured between 1860 and 1940. The other two ranged from 1971 to l975 and from 2007 to 2017. In total, the team analyzed more than 677,000 temperature measurements.英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第3页(共10页)On average, American body temperature has declined by 0.03°C per decade. Body temperatures of men born in the early 19th century were 0.59°C higher than those of men today.Women’s average temperature has dropped by 0.32°C compared with that of women born in the 1890s.That means average body temperature today is about 36.6°C, not 37°C as widely thought.The change isn’t simply the result of older thermometers(温度计) being unreliable. We know this because the cooling trend is visible within the more modern data sets, in which the thermometers were probably more accurate.“The most likely explanation in my view is that, microbiologically, we’re very different peop le than we were,”says Parsonnet. People have fewer infections, thanks to vaccines and antibiotics, so our immune systems are less active and our body tissues less inflamed (发炎).11. The average human body temperature has been ______since the 1860s.A. risingB. droppingC. turning upD. narrowing down12. The word “it” (Line 2, Para. 2) refers to the fact that ______.A. 37℃was too highB. 37℃was too lowC. 37℃was irregularD. 37℃was regular13. According to Parsonnet and her team’s research, which of the following is NOT true?A. Body temperatures of men born in the early 19th century were 0.59°C higher than those men of today.B. Women’s average temperature has fallen by 0.32°C compared with that of women born in the 1890s.C. US body temperature has declined by 0.03°C for decades on average.D. The average body temperature today is lower than 37°C.14. It is less likely for people to get infected because of ______.A. climate changesB. environment pollutionC. vaccines and antibioticsD. better thermometers15. It could be concluded from the passage that ______.A. we are getting cooler as body temperature fallsB. we are getting warmer as body temperature fallsC. we are getting cooler as body temperature risesD. we are getting warmer as body temperature rises英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第4页(共10页)Passage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Being a female tree is hard.A study of a species that can change sex has revealed that most striped maple trees die while female.“We had a suspicion they were changing sex, which is relatively rare among plants.” says Jemnifer Blake-Mahmud at Princeton University. Between 2014 and 2017, she and Lena Struwe at Rutgers University in New Jersey observed the lifecycle s of 457 striped maples in New Jersey, recording their health, diameter and whether they had female or male flowers each spring.They found that 54 percent of the trees changed sex during that time, and one fourth of those did so at least twice. A model based on these findings showed that, contrary to previous suggestions, healthy trees were more likely to be male and a tree's size doesn't influence its sex.The growth rate of trees that remained female for many years declined. Of the trees that died, 75 percent had recently produced female flowers. “It's remarkable,” says Blake- Mahmud. “When I see a tree that's dead and I look back in my datasheet, it was almost always female the year before.”It isn't clear why this is the case. It could be that female trees need more nutrients because they produce seeds, and it may increase the death rate of female trees, she says.But it could also be that dying trees become female as a last effort to create offspring and pass their genes on to the next generation.“These populations have a lot more male trees than female trees in general, so just by luck, a female has a better chance of being a parent of the next generation than a male,” says Blake-Mahmud. “If you're going to die anyway, then being female is the way to go. That would make more evolutionary sense.”16. Which factor mentioned in the passage does NOT influence the striped maple trees' sex?A. Health.B. SizeC. Season.D. Age.17. The word“declined”(Line l, Para. 4) is closest in meaning to ______.A. got worseB. died awayC. went downD. wore out18. Female maple trees need more nutrients because______.A. they create offspringB. they change their sexC. they are less healthyD. there are fewer female trees英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第5页(共10页)19.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Healthy maple trees are more likely to be female.B. Dying maple trees are more likely to be male.C. Female maple trees are less likely to be parents.D. Sex changing could be the natural life process of the maple trees.20.What's the best title of the passage?A. Female Maple Trees More Likely to Die.B. A Contrast of Female and Male Maple Trees.C. Relationships between Female and Male Maple Trees.D. Differences between Female and Male Maple Trees.PartⅡVocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE that best completes the sentence.

Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups,or from the traditionalHerding Group.These types include the Bloodhound,Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland,GermanShepherd,Golden Retriever,and Belgian Malinois—all of which are chosen for search-and-rescueduty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty,and their tendency for mental stability. These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell—to better locate lost individuals—andare often able to access hard-to-reach areas.As highly trained animals,they serve in many differentfields,including specialist search,snow slide rescue,dead body location,and tracking. To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescueworker,a dog must display certain qualities.In addition to intelligence and strength,the dog mustbeswift,confident,easily trainable, adaptable,and have a high level of stamina(耐力)and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during“down”time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs. A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty.Training is not for the faint-hearted.Certification training can take from two to three years,working three to four hours a day,three to six days a week,often in group,team-oriented sessions. Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training.Rescue training,for instance,includes“air scenting”—where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim´s scent(气味)and then follow the scent to the person.This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide. {TS}Rescue dogs are chosen probably because .(单选题)A. they are loyalB. they are braveC. they have amazing appearancesD. they have good eyesight试题答案:A5、第28题应选( )(单选题)A. onB. inC. atD. by试题答案:A6、第31题的答案是( )(单选题)A. tooB. onceC. againD. also试题答案:D7、 We had a long way to go so we decided to __ early.(单选题)A. set onB. put onC. set offD. put off试题答案:C8、第58题的答案是( ) (单选题)试题答案:E9、第35题答案是()(单选题)A. 0bjectB. systemC. resultD. strategy试题答案:D10、《骆驼祥子》从小说到电影均产生较大影响,其原著作者是()。

第I卷Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Moon-cakes are a special Chinese food. They are very popular among Chinese people, home or abroad. Moon-cakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. To celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chinese people must do two things: enjoy the full moon and eat delicious moon-cakes. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the Lunar calendar. It is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. (81) In the eyes of the Chinese people, a moon-cake takes the shape of a round moon and thus symbolize s the reunion of all family members.Therefore, Mid-Autumn Festival is regarded as one of the most important to the Chinese people. It’s a good time for the whole family to be together. So on that day, everyone would try his best to get home. A big family dinner would be held in the evening, with the bright moon in the sky and the moon-cakes of all sorts at the table to express best wishes.The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed or red bean and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. Traditional moon-cakes are made with melted lard, but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health. Nowadays moon-cakes with different flavors and sizes are also being produced to cater for different consumer s’ requirement s.Moon-cakes are usually stamped with Chinese character s indicat ing the name of the bakery and the type of filling used. Some bakeries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give more personalize d moon cakes to friends and family. They are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon.Moon-cakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories. The best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of tea, especially Chinese tea. It is a special enjoymen t and it also aids the digestion.1.

It matters not what you inquire into, but when you once inquire into a thing, you must never give it up until you have thoroughly understood it. It matters not what you try to think out, but when you once try to think out a thing, you must never give it up until you have got what you want. It matters not what you try to carry out, but when you once carry out a thing, you must never give it up until you have done it thoroughly and well.If another man succeeds by one effort, you will use a hundred efforts.

That is almost 1 out of every 3 people in the United States. Some people go on ideas. This means they eat less certain foods, especially fats and sugars. Other people exercise with especial equipment, take diet pills, or even have surgery. Losing weight is hard work, and it can also cost a lot of money. So why do so many people in the United States want to lose weight?Many people in the United States worry about not looking young and attractive. For many people, looking good also means being thin. Other people worry about their health. Many doctors say being overweight is not healthy. But are Americans really fat? (83) Almost 30 million Americans weight at least 20 percent more than their ideal weight. In fact, the United State is the most overweight country in the world. “The stored fat of adult Americans weight 2.3 trillion pounds,”says University of Massachusetts anthropologist (人类学家) George Armelagos. He says burning off that stored energy would produce enough power for 900,000 cars to go 12,000 miles.Losing weight is hard work, but most people want to find a fast and easy way to take off fat. Bookstores sell lots of dietbooks. These books tell readers how to lose weight. Each year, dozens of new books like these are written. Each one boasts to help people to get rid of fat.11.

Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings.They point out that at a circus, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite skillful things. Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward. (84) The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get reward for doing them.(85) Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and soldiers in both old and modern times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories, In Russia, for example, pigeons, which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory. When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak (鸟嘴). This turns on a light to warn people in the factory. At the same time a few seeds are given as a reward. It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one pigeon can inspect 3,000 to 4,000 balls an hour.Apes(类人猿)have been used in American in helping to make cars, and scientists believe that these large monkeys maybe one day gather crops and even drive trains.Circus 马戏团goose 鹅pigeon鸽子1.

For each blank there are four choices. Choose the one that best fits into the passage and then marks your answer on the Answer Sheet.For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 61 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 62 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 63 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 64 at an early age, and never get over them. The main defect 65 in the actual content of language itself - words. Taken individually, words have 66 meaning until they are connected together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. 67 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often falling back to 68 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 69 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 70 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 71 reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics(诊所) use a device called an 72 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 73 the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him.The accelerator(速读器) forces the reader to read fast, 74 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 75 is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 76 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 77 reading skill improved fast after some training. 78 Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 79 the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can 80 a lot more reading material in a short period of time.61.A.applying B.doing C.offering D.getting62.A.quickly B.easily C.roughly D.decidedly63.A.good B.curious C.poor D.urgent64.A.training B.habits C.situations D.custom65.A.lies bines C.touches D.involves66.A.some B.A lot C.little D.dull67.A.Fortunately B.In fact C.Logically D.Unfortunately68.A.reuse B.reread C.rewrite D.recite69.A.what B.which C.that D.if70.A.scales B.cuts C.slows D.measures71.A.some one B.one C.he D.reader72.A.accelerator B.actor C.amplifier D.observer73.A.then B.as C.beyond D.than74.A.enabling B.leading C.making D.indicating75.A.meaning prehension C.gist D.regression76.A.but B.nor C.or D.for77.A.our B.your C.their D.such a78.A Look at B.Take C.Make D.Consider79.A.for B.in C.after D.before80.A.master B.go over C.present D.get through第II卷(共50分)Part IV Translation (共35分)Section A (共5小题,每小题4分,共20分)Directions: Translate the following sentences into Chinese.
