Each passage is followed by five 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 and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET .Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.The hiring process may be different from one company to another. Nevertheless, the goal is the same —get the candidate who is the best fit for the position. Even so, how to choose that person ?Here are some best practices used by industry leaders to attract the best talent for the job. In particular, these are the new trends in the hiring process to be prepared for when you have a job interview.Typically, an interview is held in a conference room or office. However, this makes it easy forthe employer and the candidate to act predictably. The problem with this approach is that at the end of a typical interview, the employers often don't have a much better feel for the candidate than they do after reading the candidate's resume. Alternatively, some employers walk around the office for part of the interview. This allows the employer to get a sense of how the candidate interacts with other people, and whether the candidate is truly curious and interested in how the company runs.Another change is that some employers create teams to hire new employees in comparison to having just one administrator conduct the interview. Employers then get opinions from the team members. More importantly, this helps employers hire someone with whom current employees could get along.Also, employers want to make sure that candidates provide new viewpoints for the company. Before they hire someone, they think about the diversity of viewpoints that the candidate can bring to the company. Be prepared to share how you can add value to the company through your own unique perspective and how you will help the company solve problems creatively.Furthermore, many companies try to get a sense of the kind of work the candidates will do for the company before hiring them as full-time employees. For example, they may offer you a temporary contract first as a consultant. Likewise, they may assign you a small task as part of the interview process.11. What is the goal of a job interview for a company ?A. To change the hiring process.B. To discuss some best practices.C. To find the right person for a job.D. To attract more industry leaders.姓 名 考生号 座 号12. What is the problem with a typical interview?A. A typical interview is held in the company.B. Employers may fail to know candidates well.C.

These influencers are now playing an important role in achieving the goal of eliminating poverty in China.What is an influencer and how does a person become one?An influencer is a person who can influence the decisions of followers because of the relationship with the audience and his or her knowledge in a particular area.Influencers often have a large following of people who pay close attention to their views. They have the power to persuade people to buy things, and influencers are now seen by many companies as a direct way to customers' hearts.

To reflect this trend, all of a sudden a lot of mobile budgeting apps for children have been developed worldwide: GoHenry, Osper and Gimi, to name a few.These apps offer a simple money management service to children, often for a monthly fee paid by parents. Parents can add money to children's accounts, set limits and monitor transactions, while children can choose to save their money or spend it using a prepaid card. The apps suggest minimum ages ranging from six to nine for the prepaid card.The companies behind the apps argue that in an increasingly cashless society, these apps can be a valuable way of teaching young children about money. Two thirds of adults globally know little about finance, according to a recent survey, and one in four teenagers are unable to make even simple decisions on everyday spending.These apps aim to overcome this, claiming to teach children financial concepts, such as budgeting, interest rates and income. For instance, the Swedish app Gimi—with 1.2 million users globally has online savings jars where children can deposit money. Parents can pay children interest as they save, and pay children for completing household tasks. The account is attached to a prepaid card that is currently available in Sweden only, but expected to launch elsewhere in Europe in the near future.“Cash was the best way to teach people about financial knowledge because it's so easy to grasp,”Philip Haglund, CEO of Gimi, mentions. “Now money is being transferred through some kind of cyberspace, which is really abstract and hard for anyone to understand.” Haglund believes the app can teach responsible spending habits, whereas schools tend to focus more on economic theories. “You don't become better at money management just because you have a degree in economics. It’s more about the attitude and the relationship you have with parents’ money when you're six to 12 years old,” he says.But Catherine Winter, managing director of financial capability at The London Institute of Banking and Finance, warns that while digital tools can help, there needs to be a more structured approach to financial education. The area should “have regular classroom time and ideally should be taught as a separate subject,”she says. “Children would then have the right context and foundation to get the most out of both the apps and their money.”21. What is the major role of mobile budgeting app?A. Buying favorite goods.B. Paying fees for parents.C. Managing pocket money.D. Keeping an eye on children.22. According to the passage, the Swedish app Gimi can .A. guide parents to manage companiesB. give children basic ideas of financeC. guide children to do their homeworkD. teach parents how to invest their money23. What can we infer from Philip Haglund's words?A. A degree in economics guarantees the capability of managing money.B. Cyberspace is the best medium for children to get financial knowledge.C. The app Gimi helps children develop positive attitudes towards money.D. Cash transactions are abstract and difficult for most people to understand.24. What does Catherine Winter suggest regarding financial education?A. It should be well organized.B. It should be done in cyberspace.C. It should be provided by parents.D. It should be a self-taught subject.25. What is the passage mainly about?A. A new way of saving money at a local bank.B. A new way of teaching children about money.C. A new course on gaining financial knowledge.D. A new method of monitoring online transactions.Section B (15 points)Directions: In this section, some sentences have been removed. For Questions 26-30, choose the most suitable one from the list A-G to fit into each of the numbered blanks. There are two extra choices, which do not fit into any of the blanks. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.Every time you are online, you may find pictures, articles, links and videos trying to tell their stories. 26 Some news spreads quickly, and the result is fake (假的) news.Experts in media studies and online psychology have been examining the fake news phenomenon. 27Check the source. Look at the website where the story comes from. A fake news website may use an address that sounds like a real newspaper, but does not have many real stories about other topics.28 Many fake news stories use images from unrelated sites. Sometimes, if you just look closely at an image, you can see if it has been changed. Or use a search tool to see if the same image has been used in other contexts.Check the story in other places. Try to see if the story you are reading is on other news sites that you know and trust. 29Look for other signs. There are other techniques that fake news uses. For example, lots of ads pop up when you click on a link. 30 If the news story makes you angry, it is probably designed to make you angry.英语试题第5页(共7页)英语试题第6页(共7页)If you know these things about online news, and can apply them in your everyday life, then youwill have control over what to read, what to believe and what to share.A. Watch out for fake photos.B. Unfortunately, not all of these stories are true.C. Young people like to share information online.D. Read the following advice and don't get fooled!E. You can also think about how the story makes you feel.F. If you do find it on many other sites, then it probably isn't fake.G. But they want you to click on the same image used in other contexts.第II卷Part III Translation (20 points)Section A (10 points)31.

But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. Its first use was a shade against the sun.Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B. C.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sun shade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high offices.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later on in England.By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrella have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.。

favorite20.What is the main idea of this passage?A.Five methods to influence buyers.B.Five tips on earning money as an influencerC.Five methods to use influencers in marketingD.Five tips on becoming a social media influencePassage3Questions21to25are based on the following passageChildren may not be stashing coins in piggy banks for much longer;with the move towards a cashless society,pocket money is moving digital.To reflect this trend,a flurry of mobile budgeting apps for children has sprang up worldwide:GoHemy,Osper and Gimi to name a few.These apps offer a simple money management service for children,often for a monthly subscription fee paid by the parents.Parents can add money to children's accounts,set limits and monitor transactions while children can choose to save their money or spend it using a prepaidCard that works like a debit card The apps suggest minimum ages ranging from six to nine for the prepaid card.The companies behind the apps argue that in an increasingly cashless society,they can be a valuable way of teaching young children about money.Two thirds of adults globally are financially illiterate,according to Standard&Poor's Global Financial Literacy Survey,and one in four teenagers are unable to make even simple decisions on everyday spending.These apps aim to overcome this,claiming to teach children financial concepts,such as Budgeting,interest rates and income.For instance,the Swedish app Gimi-with1.2million users globally-has virtual savings jars where children can deposit money;parents can pay children interest as they save;and there is a chores feature,where parents can pay children for completing household tasks.The account is attached to a prepaid card that is currently available in Sweden only,but expected to launch elsewhere in Europe in2020.But Catherine Winter,managing director of financial capability at The London Institution of Banking and Finance,warns that while digital tools can help,there needs to be a more structured approach to financial education.The area should“have regular classroom time and ideally shouldbe taught as a separate subject.”she says,“Children would then have the right context and foundation to get the most out of both the apps and their money.”The growth of digital banking has affected how parents dole out pocket money,with one in three parents in the United Kingdom doing it digitally,according to a recent report by the financial comparison website .One concern is that introducing digital money apps to young children could help encourage irresponsible spending habits.“If children don't have a good foundation in financial capability,there's a risk that money apps could be seen as just another game,”says Winter.“There's a risk that they won't learn about the real value of money and might develop bad money habits.”However,Philip Haglund says children are protected from this as parents can monitor their spending habits and none of the services offer an overdraft so children can not go into debt.Plus,it is important for kids to learn and make mistakes,says Guichard.“We want to he help kids and teenagers gain financial skills for life,and the earlier you do that the better,because if you're going to make a mistake of£10at eight,it's better than making a mistake of£1,000when you're28,”he says.21.What is the major role of mobile app?A.Buying favorite goodsB.Paying fees for parentsC.Managing pocket moneyD.Keeping an eye on children22.According to the passage,the Swedish app Gimi can.A.guide parents to manage companiesB.give children basic ideas of financeC.guide children to do their homeworkD.teach parents how to invest their money23.What can we infer from Philip Hag words?A.A degree in economics guarantees the capability of managing money.B.Cyberspace is the best medium for children to get financial knowledge.C.The app Gimi helps children develop positive attitudes towards moneyD.Cash transactions are abstract and difficult for most people to understand.24.What does Catherine Winter suggest regarding financial education?A.It should be well organizedB.It should be done in cyberspaceC.It should be provided by parentsD.It should be a self-taught subject25.What is the passage mainly about?A.A new way of saving money at a local bankB.A new way of teaching children about moneyC.A new course on gaining financial knowledgeD.A new method of maintain online transactions.Section B七选五,阅读短文,从选项中选择适当的内容填入文章。

There are 4 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read these materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1Trees are useful to man i n three very important ways: they provide him with wood a nd other products; they give him shade; and they help to prevent droughts (干旱) and floods.Unfortunately, man has not realized that the third of these servicesis the most important. Two t housand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire (帝国). It gained the empire, but, without its trees, its soil becamehard and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the home country founditself faced by flood and starvation.Even though a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult for it to persuade villagers to see this. Thevillagers want wood to cook their food with; and they can earn money byselling wood. They are usually too lazy to plant and look after the trees. So, unless the government has a good system of control, or can educatethe people, the forests will slowly disappear.This does not only mean t hat the villagers' children and grandchildren will have fewer trees. The results are even more serious, for where there are trees their roots break the soil up allowing the rain to sink inand also bind the soil, thus preventing its being washed away easily but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows awayfrom the surface, causing flood.51. What is the most important function of trees?A. Providing fuelB. Offering shade.C. Preventing natural disasterD. Providing wood.52. What eventually happened to the empire in the paragraph?A. Its people died of hunger.B. It fell to pieces.C. It became a giant empire.D. It built many ships with wood.53. It is implied in the passage that the villagers__________.A. want a plentiful supply of trees.B. want firewood badly.C. just want to get money.D. don't realize the importance of trees.54. The role of trees is to__________.A. loosen soilB. keep soil in positionC. harden soilD. both A and B55. What is the passage mainly concerned with?A. The benefits of trees.B. Trees and soil protectionC. The various uses of trees.D. Different attitudes toward trees.Task 2I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not knowthe real American society until I was injured in a car accident becauseafter the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court (法庭).。

A study from the University of London in 2020 found that people who speak two or more languages may be better able to cope with the symptoms of aging and memory loss. The research involved over 800 people aged 75 to 96 years old, with different linguistic abilities. The participants were given a series of tests to measure their cognitive function, such as memory, attention, and problem-solving skills.The study found that the bilingual participants performed significantly better than the monolingual participants in all cognitive tasks. They were able to switch between tasks more easily, showed increased brain activity, and had a higher volume of gray matter in certain brain regions associated with cognitive functions.According to the researchers, speaking multiple languages has a positive effect on cognitive reserve, which is the brain's ability to function normally despite age-related changes. The bilingual brain is constantly active and has to constantly switch between languages, which may enhance its flexibility and ability to adapt to new situations. This may explain why bilingual individuals tend to have better cognitive skills and a lower risk of developing dementia (痴呆症) compared to monolingual individuals.In addition to cognitive benefits, learning a second language can also provide social and cultural advantages. Bilingual individuals have the abilityto communicate with a wider range of people, have a deeper understanding of different cultures, and may have more employment opportunities in an increasingly globalized world.Overall, the study suggests that learning and speaking multiple languages can have long-term benefits for cognitive function and mental health. It is never too late to start learning a new language, and the effort put into language learning may pay off in more ways than one.1. What was the purpose of the University of London study?A. To measure cognitive function in bilingual individuals.B. To compare the memory skills of monolingual and bilingual individuals.C. To analyze the effects of aging on cognitive function.D. To explore the benefits of speaking multiple languages on cognitive function.2. What did the study find about bilingual participants' cognitive performance?A. They had a higher volume of gray matter in all brain regions.B. They performed significantly better than monolingual participants in all tasks.C. They had a lower risk of developing dementia compared to monolingual participants.D. They showed increased brain activity when switching between languages.3. What is cognitive reserve?A. The brain's ability to function normally despite age-related changes.B. The ability to communicate with a wider range of people.C. The brain's flexibility and ability to adapt to new situations.D. The brain's volume of gray matter in certain regions.4. Apart from cognitive benefits, what other advantages can bilingual individuals gain?A. Greater employment opportunities and social skills.B. Better problem-solving skills and attention span.C. Deeper understanding of their own culture.D. Enhanced memory and learning abilities.5. What is the main message of the study?A. It is important to start learning a new language at a young age.B. Bilingual individuals are more likely to develop dementia.C. Learning and speaking multiple languages can have long-term cognitive benefits.D. The brain's cognitive function declines with age.二、完形填空先阅读短文,然后根据短文内容选择最佳答案。

Passage 1George Washington (1732-1799) was the first president of the United States. He is also one of America's greatest heroes. He led the country through one of its most difficult times -- the American Revolution (战争), a war for freedom from England. In addition, Washington was an outstanding general. Even though he lost most of the battles that he fought, he never gave up. When the war was over, the American colonists had won their freedom. Washington gave his power back to his country and he went home to live on his farm in Virginia.After a few years, Washington was convinced to attend the Constitutional Convention to write a Constitution for the United States. This document is the most important paper in the history of the United States. It tells how the country is to be run, and it is the basis for the laws of the land.When the new American government was started, Washington was elected president by the Electoral College (选举团) both in 1789 and also in 1792. He is the only president who was elected by all the Electoral College votes. No one since has been able to achieve that, making Washington theonly unanimously (全体一致地) elected president in the history of the United States.Washington did many things as president. Two of his most important acts war the Proclamation (宣布) of Neutrality (中立) in 1793, which kept America out of the war between France and England, and the Farewell Address (告别演说) of 1796, where he chose to retire instead of running for a third term.Washington's body lies (躺) in a tomb (陵墓) at his home in Mount Vernon, Virginia. It is visited by thousands of people from all over the world each year. Washington's picture is on the United States one-dollar bill and twenty-five cent coin. On a hill, overlooking (俯瞰) the city of Washington, D.C, is a monument (纪念碑) to the first president.The first president of the United States, George Washington, is known for his leadership during the American Revolution and for his contribution to the founding of the United States.1.

In two years, I will finish my education at the university. Then I will look for a job It is difficult for teachers to find jobs in big cities. They must look for jobs in small towns.

Each passage is followed by five q unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A.B.C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are baxxxxsed on the following passage.The hiring process may be different from one company to another. Nevertheless the goal is the same—get the candidate who is the best fit for the position. Even so how to choose that person? Here are some best practices used by industry leaders to attract the best talent for the job. In particular these are the new trends in the hiring process to be prepared for when you have a job interview.Typically an interview is held in a conference room or office. However this makes it easy for the employer and the candidate to act predictably. The problem with this approach is that at the end of a typical interview the employers often don’t have a much better feel for the candidate than they do after reading the candidate's resume. Alternatively some employers walk around the office for part of the interview. This allows the employer to get a sense of how the candidate interacts with other people and whether the candidate is truly curious and interested in how the company runs.Another change is that some employers create teams to hire new employees in comparison to having just one administrator conduct the interview. Employers then get opinions from the team members. More importantly this helps employers hire someone with whom current employees could get alone. Also employers want to make sure that candidates provide new viewpoints for the company. Before they hire someone they think about the diversity of viewpoints that the candidate can bring to the company. Be prepared to share how you can add value to the company through your own unique perspective and how you will help the company solve problems creatively.Furthermore many companies try to get a sense of the kind of work the candidates will do for the company. before hiring them as full-time employees. For example they may offer you a temporary contract first as a consultant. Likewise they may assign you a small task as part of the interview process.11.

To reflect this trend all of a sudden a lot of mobile budgeting apps for children have been developed worldwide: GoHenry Osper and Gimi to name a few.These apps offer a simple money management service to children often for a monthly fee Paid by parents. Parents can add money to children often for a monthly fee paid by children can choose tosave their money or spend it using a prepaid card. The apps suggest minimum ages ranging from six to nine for the prepaid card.The companies behind the apps argue that in an increasingly cashless society these apps can be a valuable way of teaching young children about money. Two thirds of adults globally know little about finance according to a recent survey and one in four teenagers are unable to make even simple decisions on everyday spending.These apps aim to overcome this claiming to teach children financial concepts such as budgeting interest rates and income. For instance the Swedish app Gimi—with 1.2 million users globally has online savings jars where children can deposit money. Parents can pay children interest as they save and pay children for completing household tasks. The account is attached to a prepaid card that is currently available in Sweden only but expected to launch elsewhere in Europe in the near future.“Cash was the best way to teach people about financial knowledge because it's so easy to grasp” Philip Haglund CEO of Gimi mentions. “Now money is being transferred through some kind of cyberspace which is really abstract and hard for anyone to understand.” Haglund believes the app can teach responsible spending habits whereas schools tend to focus more on economic theories. “You don't become better at money management just because you have a degree in economics. It’s more about the attitude and the relationship you have with par ents’ money when you're six to 12 years old ” he says.But Catherine Winter managing director of financial capability at The London Institute of Banking and Finance warns that while digital tools can help there needs to be a more structured approach to financial education. The area should have regular classroom time and ideally should be taught as a separate subject” she says. “Children would then have the right context and foundation to get the most out of both the apps and their money.”21 What is the major role of mobile budgeting app ?A. Buying favorite goods. B Paying fees for parents.C. Managing pocket money. D Keeping an eye on children.22. According to the passage the Swedish app Gimi can .A. guide parents to manage companiesB. give children basic ideas of financeC guide children to do their homeworkD teach parents how to invest their money23 What can we infer from Philip Haglund's words?A A degree in economics guarantees the capability of managing money.B Cyberspace is the best medium for children to get financial knowledge.C The app Gimi helps children develop positive attitudes towards money.D Cash transactions are difficult for most people to understand .24 What does Catherine Winter suggest regarding financial education?A It should be well organizedB It should be done in cyberspace.C It should be provided by parents D. It should be a self-taught subject.25 What is the passage mainly about?A. A new way of saving money at a local bank.B. A new way of teaching children about money.C. A new course on gaining financial knowledge.D. A new method of monitoring online transactions.Section B (15 points)Directions: In this section some sentences have been removed.

Well, differences can mean problems. but only when they are not properly understood.Passage oneImagine Adam alone in the Garden of Eden and you will have an idea about the way many men feel today. If the major issue for women is overload in their life----balancing career, relationships, children, home ---- the crisis for men is loneliness and the loss of women. Twenty-five years ago, most men came home from work to a warm meal, a clean house, the devotion of a gentle wife. Now the majority of women work outside, they are no longer the full-time housewives as before, so men are feeling deserted and easily hurt.Women get emotional support through a network of friends and family. Most men don't have such relationships; they are intimate only with their wives or lovers. As a result, any lessening of their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.Bob's wife Sandy has a full-time job, and he really prefers her bringing home extra income. Yet he also feels uneasy and troubled. "When I get home at the end of the day, wanting to have a talk with Sandy,'' he said, "She puts me of. First she makes dinner, then the kids need something, or a friend calls her. She talks with her sister, her girlfriends, her workmates, but not with me. I sometimes do feel abandoned and annoyed."Since most men have difficulty admitting loneliness and hurt, they tend to become angry instead. Bob's constant complaints and criticism made Sandy confused and irritated. Eventually, they came up with a simple solution that met both Bob’s need for time and Sandy's sense of responsibility to others. The first half-hour after arrived home from work was “theirs”, they would sit together and just talk to each other about everything they want to say.51.Many men feel hurt and abandoned because_____________.A)women think it’s unfair to stay at home doing houseworkB)their wives are no longer gentle and caring to the familyC) the equality of men and women is strongly emphasizedD) most women have their own jobs and don’t have enough time and energy caring about men52. Why do men care a lot about their coupler’s attitude towards them?A)Because their differences can mean problems,B)Because they don't have a network of friends and family,C)Because they only want to have an intimate relation with their wives.D)Because men lack confidence nowadays.53.Which of the following statements about Bob and Sandy is true?A)Bob doesn't wish Sandy to do a full-time job.B)Sandy is too busy to have time talking with Bob.C)Sandy puts Bob off since there's no common topic between them anymore.D)Sandy feels equal to Bob now and no longer loves him as before.54.What does the passage want to tell us?A)Differences between men and women would certainly bring problems.B)All human beings should be considered equal.C)Only sameness could bring happiness to a marriage life.D)Mutual understanding between men and women helps to solve problems.Passage TwoMany people have the experience that getting up in the morning is so difficult and painful. This might be called laziness. But Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation to this, he has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you're feeling“hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologue as: "Get up, Tom! You'll be late for school again!'' The possible explanation to the trouble is that Tom is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help a lot. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway, counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. However, if your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.55.According the passage, what might bring family quarrels to the end?A)Stopping familiar monologues every day.B) A sudden change of a family member’s energy cycle.C)Being aware of energy cycles of other family members.D)Trying to control the energy cycles of other member56.If one wants to do better at his low point in the morning, he should_________.A)change his energy cycle B) go to bed earlier the day beforeC) try to overcome his laziness D) get up earlier than usual57.What does the sentence “get off to slow start which saves your energy” mean?A)It will help you to control your temper early in the day.B)It will enable you to concentrate on your routine work.C)It will help to keep your energy for the whole day’ s work.D)It will keep your energy cycle under control all day.58.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A)Dr Klriman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.B ) Habit can help people adjust to their own energy cycle.C)Each person has his own energy cycle.D)Getting up with a slow start helps us to save energy for work.Passage ThreeA person with a flat, dull voice which neither rises nor falls sounds like a flat and dull person. But he or she may not be! While we can’t deny the fact that people can give the impression that they are bored, anxious friendly or angry just by the sound of their voice.A French friend of mine once said to me. " Your accent in French is excellent but you will never sound like a Frenchman until you put all your heart into your voice. It is a pity because you are a lively person and yet you don’t sound lively to a Frenchman!"We learn the grammar and vocabulary and even the correct pronunciation of the foreign language, but we may forget the important emotional effect of the music of our speech. For British people, the intonation of language is attractive. That's to say, the rise and fall in the sound of our voice when we speak really matters. It's unfortunate that the intonation of some other countries can often communicate the wrong meaning.British people sometimes feel offended because they think the other person is unfriendly even if he has spoken a perfect English sentence! And this failure ofcommunication can also happen between British people themselves.If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think about the music of your own voice. Especially when you meet someone from a different part of your country or from another country, you should be careful! Don’t judge them only by their intonation.59.What does the writer want to show through the example in the second paragraph?A)To learn a foreign language well, we must learn the sound and pronunciation wellB)Grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation are not the only important elements in learning a foreign language.C) A person with a flat, dull voice will not give other good impression.D)In learning a foreign language, we must talk to the native speakers frequently.60.The word "music" in the third paragraph means___________.A) intonation B) rising toneC) sweet voice D) falling tone61.British people sometimes feel offended while talking with others because.A)they can’t understand what the other person saysB)the other person says something rudeC)the languages they speak are quite differentD)they misunderstand the other person's words62.What is the main idea of the passage?A)To communication with others successfully, we must know music well.B)We can't simply judge a person by his voice, nor can we neglect the intonation.C)Many listeners will not pay attention to the sound of one's voice.D)It's not easy for people from different countries or parts to communicate.Section B Sentence Understanding and MatchingDirections: Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column and mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet.63.那里的空气污染对我的身体伤害很大。

For questions 51 to 55, choose the most suitable sentence from choices A to G to fit into each of the numbered blanks. There are two extra choices, which do not fit the blanks. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on The Answer Sheet.A dictionary contains a definition of friendship somewhere in the F’s between the words “fear”and “Friday”. An encyclopedia supplies interesting facts on friendship. But all the definitions and facts do not convey what friendship is really all about. 51)______It is an experience that involves all senses.52)______ It is seen in an old couple sitting in the park holding hands. It is the way they touch,a touch as light as a leaf floating in the autumn air, a touch so strong that years of living could not pull them apart. Friendship is seen in a child freely sharing the last cookie. It is the small arm over the shoulder of another as they walk on the playground. Seeing friendship is not casual. It is watching for subtlety, but friendship is there for eyes that can see.53)______ It is heard in the words of two friends squeezing in lunch together on an extremely busy day. It is the way they walk each other, not the words. Their tone is unique. Friendship can be heard by those willing to listen.Friendship is felt in a touch. It is a pat on the back from a teammate, a high five between classes, the slimy, wet kiss from the family dog. It’s a touch that reassures that someone is there, someone who cares. The touch communicates more than words or gestures. It is instantly understood and speaks volumes beyond the point of contact, to the heart.Friendship has a taste. 54)______, the ingredients all measured and planned, then carefully mixed and kneaded, then the quiet waiting as the dough rises. Hot from the oven, the bread tastes more than the sum of its ingredients. There are something else there, perhaps the thoughts of the baker as her hands knead the dough, or her patience as she waits for the dough to rise. Unseen and unmeasured, this is the ingredient that makes the difference. Warm, fresh from the oven with a little butter, the difference you taste is friendship.Finally, more than other senses, friendship is an experience of the heart. 55)______--- a language without words, vowels, or consonants; a language that, whether seen, felt, heard, or tasted, is understood by the heart. Like air fills the lungs, friendship fills the heart, allowing us to experience the best life has to offer: a friend.A.Friendship has a smell.B.It is the language of the heart.C.It tastes like homemade bread.D.The only way to understand friendship is through experience.E.Friendship can be seen.F.It is a pat on the back from a teammate.G. Friendship can be heard.Part IV Reading Comprehension (35 points)Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Please blacken the corresponding letter for each choice on The Answer Sheet. You may not use any of the words in the word bank more than once. (5 points)Questions 56 to 65 are based on the following passage.In families with two working parents, fathers may have more impact on a child’s language development than mothers, a new study suggests.Researchers __56__ 92 families form 11 child care centers before their children were a year old, interviewing each to establish income, level of education and child care arrangements. Overall, it was a group of well-class families, with married parents both living in the home.When the children were 2, researchers videotaped them at home in free-play sessions with both parents, __57__ all of their speech. The study will appear in the November issue of The Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology.The scientists measured the __58__ number of utterance (话语) of the parents, the number of different words they used, the complexity of their sentences and other __59__ of their speech. On average, fathers spoke less than mothers did, but they did not differ in the length of utterances or proportion of questions asked.Finally, the researchers __60__ the children’s speech at age 3, using a standardized language test. The only predictors of high scores on the test were the mother’s level of education, the __61__ of child care and the number of different words the father used.The researchers are __62__ why the father’s speech, and not the mother’s, had an effect.“It’s well __63__ that the mother’s language does have an impact,” said Nadya Pancsofar, the lead author of the study. It could be that the high-functioning mothers in the study had __64___ had a strong influence on their children’s speech development, Ms. Pancsofar said, “or it may be that mothers are__65__ in a way we didn’t measure in the study.”A.alreadyB. analyzedC. aspectsD. charactersE. contributingF. describingG. establishedH. qualityI. quotedJ. recordingK.recruitedL. totalM. unconsciousN. unsureO. yetSection BDirections: There are 4 passages in this section. 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 and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.(30 points)Passage oneThe moment two humans lay eyes on each other has incredible. The first sight of you bums its way into your new acquaintance’s eyes and can stay printed in his or her memory forever.Artists are something able to capture this quicksilver, short emotional response. I have a friend, Robert Grossman, an accomplished artist who draws regularly for Forbes, Newsweek, sports Illustrated, Rolling Stone and other popular publications. Robots has a unique gift for capturing not only the physical appearance of his subjects, but zeroing in on the essence of their personalities. The bodies and souls of hundreds of figures radiate from his sketch pad (素描). One glance at his pictures of famous people, you can see, for instance, the insecure of arrogance of Madonna, the boyishness of Clinton, the awkwardness of George Bush.Sometimes at a party, Robert will do a quick sketch on a cocktail napkin of a guest. When he’s finished drawing, he puts his pen down and hands a napkin to the guest. Often a puzzled look comes over the subject’s face. He or she usually mumbles some politeness like, “Well, er, that is great. But it really is not me.”The crowd’s convincing echo of“Oh yes it is!” drowns down the subject, who is left to stare back at the world’s view of himself or herself in the napkin. Once I asked Robert how he could capture people’s personalities so well. He said,“It ’s simple. I just look at them.”Almost every side of people’s personalities is evident from their appearance, their gesture, the way they move.First impressions are indelible. Because in our fast-paced information-overload world, multiple stimuli bombard us every second, people’s heads are spinning.

In junior high?One girl in our class always made fun of me because my dad was a plumber and hers was a lawyer, and she would say things like, “that’s gross!” I must admit I was sometimes embarrassed by what my dad did, especially in my early teens, when the only thing I really cared about was what the other girls thought.The girl lived a few streets away from us, and a winter day---the day her older sister got married---the toilet in their main upstairs bathroom cracked and there was water everywhere. Her father called every plumber in the yellow book but nobody would come out because of the major snowstorm. His daughter told her father that my father was a plumber, and he called.

Some people say the future is big, but when it comes to technology, the world is getting smaller.Nanotechnology(纳米技术)is the science that deals with doing things in a very small way, and it is being studied and developed all over the world. Micro-machines too small to been seen by the eye are being designed to do many things. And these machines no larger than in diameter than a human hair, are extremely powerfully. Many scientists say nanotechnology will produce the next industrial revolution(工业革命).Nano comes from the Greek word dwarf. A nanometer is one-billion of a meter. The period of the end of this sentence can contain about 100 micrometers, which in equal to 100,000 nanometers. To understand this new technology, we have to get rid of the normal ideas of size and strength.Minute(微小的)robots, called “nanorobots”are being developed in the revolutionize manufacturing. Instead of cars being produced on assembling line, for example, scientist predict that cars can be built in a giant container onto which raw material and machines have been placed.Thousands of nanorobots will direct the process and tell the machine what to do.Micro-machines can also be used to make our environment safer. Today, poison chemicals are stored in containers or transported by trucks or trains. This sometimes result in dangerous spills. But with nanotechnology, manufacturers could have their own tiny chemical factories. The produce would be no bigger than a sugar cube and would manufacture exactly the amount of chemicals needed at the moment. No chemicals would need to be stored. The workplace would be safer, and the environment would be cleaner.76.The author mentions guitar at the beginning of the passage in order to______.A.introduce the knowledge of guitarB. introduce the topic of nanotechnologyC. show his or her own interest in musicD. describe the craft of making musical instruments77.According to the passage, why does the nanotechnology lead to the next industrial revolution?A.

Please write your translation on The Answer Sheet.86 There is nothing new about people cutting down trees. In ancient times, Greece, Italy and England were covered with forests. But now almost nothing were left.Today, trees are being cut down more rapidly. A major cause of present destruction is the worldwide demand for wood. 87 In industrial countries,people are using more and more wood forpaper, furniture and houses. There is not enough wood in these countries, therefore they have begun taking wood from the forest of Asia, Africa and other countries.Wood is also in great demand in developing countries. 88 In many areas, people depend on wood to cook their food. As the population grows, the need for wood grows. But when too many trees are cut down, forests are destroyed. In reality, there is usually no chance to grow back. In this way, many million of acres of forests are destroyed every year.89 The destruction of forests affects first the people who used to lived there. It also has other effects far way. For example, trees help to absorb heavy rains. When the trees are cut down, the rain pours all at once into the river.90 But finally, the loss of forests may have an effect on the climate of our planet. Together with increasing pollution, it could cause temperature to raise, and the climate will change around the world. No one would know exactly what effects the world would have on our life. For many people the effects would probably be destructive.86.87.88.89.90.Section B Chinese-English TranslationDirections: Translate the following Chinese sentences into English.91.大家一致认为没有人能剥夺孩子们受教育的权利。

You can have days with more than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic ocean, your ship enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back; traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five of twenty-three hours. If you travel by ship across the Pacific, you cross the international date line. By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins.

If you are thinking of buying a dog, however, you should first decide what sort of companion you need and whether the dog is likely to be happy in the surroundings you can provide. Specialist advice is available to help you choose the most suitable breed of dog. But in part, the decision depends on common sense. Different dogs were originally developed to perform specific tasks. So, if you want a dog to protect you or your house, for example, you should choose a breed that has the right size and characteristicsYou must also be ready to devote a good deal of time to train the dog when it is young and give it the exercise it needs throughout its life, unless live in the country and can let it run freely. Dogs are demanding pets. Cats love the house and so are satisfactory with their place which is secure, but a dog is loyal to its master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection.The best time to buy a baby dog is when it is between 6 and 8 weeks old so that it can transfer its affection from its mother to its master. If baby dogs have not established a relationship with the human being until they are over three months old, their strong relationship will always be withdogs. They are likely to be too shy when they are brought out into the world to become good pets.55.

They have to show that they will be able to pay for each year of study.Students have to consider not only the tuition, the cost of classes, buEducational advisers say foreign students should keep enough money in a local bank to pay for at least two months of spending. So how much will it cost every year to study at an American school? Generally speaking, the answer is: a lot. The University of Washington says foreign students are paying more than thirty-six thousand dollars this year. Its website says the University of Washington does not offer financial assistance to international students.This is generally true of American schools, especially at the undergraduate level. It means foreign students are faced with a heavy financial burden.The international application for the university includes a Statement of Financial Responsibility that must be signed. Students must also provide a bank letter or statement from within the past six months. And they have to name anyone who will help with payments. These people must send proof from a bank to show that they have the money.The government or employer may be able to help you pay all or some college costs. A good idea is to ask at least eighteen months before you want to start classes in the United States.Enough time should be ensured to go through procedures.59. Which statement is true according to the first paragraph?A) Foreign students in America can hardly support themselves.B) They should show that they are able to pay the first year of their study.C) Room-and-board refers to the expense on meals and accommodation.D) Students intending to attend an American college or university should explain who will pay fortheir education.60.

One of his best - known painting is the "Mona Lisa." Michelangelo was also a man of many talents. He was an artist; he wrote poems; he drew plans for buildings; and he worked with other forms of art. His best- known work is the painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome (罗马西斯教堂).Raphael was known for his painting.

But if you try to make a film by setting up a camera in front of the stage, you will find it won’t work. A film made in this way will lea ve the audience cold. And even worse you’ll be wasting a powerful tool —the camera.A stage is actually a box. One side of the box has been removed so the audience can see what’s going on inside. The actors remain at a fixed audience. In the film, however, the camera can bring the audience up close and fix their attention on small but important things: a frightened look, a whisper, a trembling of hands.The camera offers the film maker freedom allowing him to move easily across barriers(界限) of time and space. He can show his action in real cities and on real farms. He can also use the camera to change the scene dozens of times in one film. No expert of the stage can do this.(15分)(1)The main idea of the text is that ________ (3分)A stage plays and films are two different kinds of artB it is always disappointing to turn play into filmsC films have certain advantages(长处) over stage playsD the camera has made film making easy and possible(2)What is wrong with making a film by setting up a camera before the stage?(3分)A Fewer and fewer people will go to the theatre.B The audience cannot see what is going on the stage.C The scene cannot be changed from time to time.D The powerful camera cannot be made good use of.(3)Which of the following can show that the camera is a powerful tool?(3分)A It can move easily.B It can make small things look larger.C It can show things in the future.D It can give us a scene of realism.(4)In what way are plays different from film?(3分)A Films often use real scenery while plays don’t.B Films can show the past while plays can’t.C Films change scenes while plays don’t.D Film audience can move while play audience can’t.(5)A suitable title for this text is _______.(3分)A Stage Plays and FilmB The Powerful CameraC Fewer Plays, More FilmsD Less Waste, More Freedom三、完形填空(每题10分,共1道小题,总分值10分)1.
