The company says the effort involves using the power of information and technology to help people improve their lives.Aleem Walji works for -- the part of the company that gives money to good causes. He said the company’s first project will help identify whereinfectious (传染性的) diseases are developing. In Southeast Asia and Africa, for example, will work with partners to strengthen early-warning systems and take action against growing health threats.’s second project will invest in ways to help small and medium-sized businesses grow. Walji says microfinance (小额信贷) is generally small,short-term loans that create few jobs. Instead, he says wants to develop ways to bring investors and business owners together to create jobs and improve economic growth. will also give money to help two climate-change programs announced earlier this year. One of these programs studies ways to make renewable (再生的) energy less costly than coal-based energy. The other is examining the efforts being made to increase the use of electric cars.The creators of Google have promised to give about one percent of company profits and one percent of its total stock value every year.

Here are some tips I have found very helpful for managing my time and maximizing my study efforts:1. Determine your goals. What do you want to get out of a college education? Academic(学术的) knowledge? Leadership experience within aclub? Decide what is most important to you. Then devote proportionate(成比例的) amounts of time to those efforts.2. Plan ahead. You may think you Call keep everything in your head, but as the activities on your schedule start piling up, making a schedule can really help organize even little tasks.3.Study at strategic(关键的) times. Don’t wait until you’re f alling asleep to study. Study first. Save those e—mails to check later, because tasks that don’t require much energy and attention can still be done when you’re tired.4. Motivate(激励) yourself! You know that TV show you’ve been dying to see, or that gam e of chess you’ve been waiting all week to challenge your friend to. These and many other special activities can be used for motivation. Promise yourself that you’ll force yourself to work efficiently. (Don’t rush through the assignment, though.)5. Take a nap. Sometimes even a 20-minute nap in the afternoon will give you the extra energy you need to get through the day.11、We need to play ahead in order to ________ .A)keep a record of all the eventsB) better organize our activitiesC)store everything in our headD) pile up little tasks neatly12、Strategic times are best for us to ________ .A)save energyB)check e-mailsC)study efficientlyD)organize activities13、Which of the following could be used as a motivation to do our assignments?A) Remembering our urgent tasks.B)Any activities we’re eager to do.C) Taking a break in the afternoon.D) The promise to study efficiently.14、What can help us to keep refreshed throughout the day?A) Doing some physical exercise.B)Taking a short nap in the afternoon.C)Rushing through some assignments.D) Playing a game of chess with a friend.15、Which of the following could be the best title for this article?A)Study Habits and Time ManagementB)Business Management and LeadershipC)University Education and Campus LifeD)Life Goals and Academic Development五、Use the given words or phrases to translate following sentences.(前5题3分/题,第6题10分, 共 25分).1、有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎?(use “it” as the formal subject)2、她连水都不愿喝一口,更别提留下来吃饭了。

more than any other single factor, determines the distribution of list on earth. climatic boundaries establish the limits within which organisms can survive. plants, even more than animals, must be adapted to climate in order to survive. they cannot move about or take shelter but must be equipped to endure whatever weather conditions are likely to occur. in the harsh conditions of the tundra, for example, low growing mosses, lichens, and a few flowering plants all hug the ground for shelter from icy winds.animals, despite their ability to move about and find shelter, are just as much influenced by climate as plants are. creatures such as the camel and the penguin are so highly specialized that they have an extremely limited distribution. others, such as bears, are flexible enough to adapt to a broad range of climates. ocean-dwelling organisms are just as sensitive to climatic changes---in this case temperature and salinity---as land animals. reef corals can survive only in clear warm seawater. certain foraminifers are so sensitive to changes in their environment that their presence can be taken as an index of sea temperature. human beings are among the least specialized of all animals and can live almost anywhere. their clothes andtheir homes act as a sort of “miniature climate” that can be taken with them everywhere.(words: 223)51. according to the passage, plants on the tundra grow close to the ground_________.a. to avoid being eaten by arctic animalsb. because fertilizer is not readily availablec. to minimize exposure to the coldd. because unfrozen water supplies are very scarce52. according to the passage, which of the following can be found in the greatest number of different climate areas on earth?a. reef coralsb. penguinsc. bearsd. camels53. it can be inferred from the passage foraminifers are a____________.a. kind of weather patternb. form of sea lifec. species of tundra plantd. type of miniature penguin54. according to the passage, human beings can survive almost everywhere on earth because_____.a. they have developed advanced forms of transportationb. they have learned how to process seawater for drinkingc. their body temperature can vary considerablyd. their shelters and clothing help them to adapt to the environment55. according to the passage, animals were influenced by_______ despite their ability to move about and find shelter.a. climateb. territoryc. soild. human beingspassage 2psychiatric (精神病学的) tests show that a well-balanced person gets much angrier when provoked than an abnormal person does. at the new york state psychiatric institute, dr. james page and professor of psychology carney landis of columbiauniversity studied the reaction of 200 normals and 210 abnormals. they tested their reactions to maddening situations of every type and variety, such as: being laughed at and ridiculed, being repeatedly disconnected on the telephone, accidentally hitting their thumb with a hammer, being worked on by a backseat driver, being told to “shut up” and mind their own business, discovering someone cheating in a friendly card game, etc. in almost every instance the anger reaction of the normal group was much more intense than that of the abnormal one.“this,” they reported, “is in accord with other p sychiatric findings. for one of the outstanding symptoms of mental unbalance is an emotional apathy.” so if you blow your top when you bang your skin against a piece of furniture, or when your sweetheart goes out with another guy—don’t worry about it. it’s just a sign that you are normal.(words: 191)56. this passage deals mainly with the ______.a. similarity to previous psychiatric studies of new york state psychological institute’s findings concerning anger reactionsb. absence of apathy in normalsc. level of intensity in anger reactions registered by normals versus abnormalsd. frequency of anger reactions registered by normals versus abnormals57. what is the main idea of this passage?a. anger is a universal phenomenon among humans.b. psychiatric tests proved that a person who gets angry is well-balanced.c. normal persons are apt to get angry much more easily than abnormals.d. normal persons react more intensely to anger-provoking situations than do abnormal individuals.58. the author recommends that, if you tend to become angry, you should ______.a. treat it as a normal reactionb. not worry about what has made you angryc. try to control your angerd. become concerned59. the word “apathy” in this passage most probably means______.a. need for affectionb. lack of feelingc. undue sensitivityd. anger60. the phrase “blow your top” in this passage most probably means ______.a. get very angryb. become indifferentc. keep your temperd. react positivelypassage 3thousands of years ago man used handy rocks for his surgical operations. later he used sharp bone or horn, metal knives and, more recently, rubber and plastic. and that was where we stuck, in surgical instrument terms, for many years. in the 1960s a new tool was developed, one which was, first of all, to be of great practical use to the armed forces and industry, but which was also, in time, to revolutionize the art and science of surgery.the tool is the laser and it is being used by more and moresurgeons all over the world, for a very large number of different complaints. the word laser means: light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. as we all know, light is hot; any source of light — from the sun itself down to a humble match burning — will give warmth. but light is usually spread out over a wide area. the light in a laser beam, however, is concentrated. this means that a light with no more power than that produced by an ordinary electric light bulb becomes intensely strong as it is concentrated to a pinpoint-sized beam. experiments with these pinpoint beams have shown researchers that different energy sources produce beams that have a particular effect on certain living cells. it is nowpossible for eye surgeons to operate on the back of the human eye without harming the front of the eye, simply by passing a laser beam right through the eyeball. no knives, no stitches, no unwanted damage— a true surgical wonder.operations which once left patients exhausted and in need of long periods of recovery time now leave them feeling relaxed and comfortable. so much more difficult operations can now be tried.the rapid development of laser techniques in the past ten years has made it clear that the future is likely to be very exciting. perhaps some cancers will be treated with laser in a way that makes surgery not only safer but more effective. altogether, tomorrow may see more and more information coming to light on the diseases which can be treated medically.

In fact, according to some estimates, over 30% of all adults in the world drink coffee at least once a day on the average.Coffee contains a kind of drug called caffeine (咖啡因). Caffeine is a chemical that stimulates (刺激) the nerves of the body. Drinking coffee tends to make people a little bit more awake-at least for a shorttime―because of this stimulating effect on the nervous system (系统). A cup of coffee has, on the average, about 3% caffeine in it.One story of the discovery of the coffee plant relates to this effect of caffeine. According to the story, coffee was discovered in East Africa. The story says that coffee was first found by a goat farmer named Kaldi. This was about the year 850.Kaldi was leading his animals through the mountains and the goats were stopping repeatedly to eat the plants near the path. Suddenly, some of the goats started jumping up and down in a very strange way.Kaldi figured out that the goats were acting this way because of the plants they were eating. Kaldi himself tried eating some of the green beans (豆荚) that the goats had been eating. He, too, felt the stimulating effect of the beans.Kaldi wanted to prove what had happened, so he picked some of the beans and took them back to his home village, where he told his story. The green bean got the name "Kaffa" and later "coffee" because the beans were discovered in a place called Kaffa in Africa.Then for years, people used to eat a few of the green Kaffa beans when they were in the mountains and needed extra energy to do their work. It was later found that the coffee beans could be picked and then dried until they turned brown, and then they could be stored. If the beans were dried and stored, they could be used at any time.1.What is caffeine?A. A kind of seed.B. A kind of plant.C. A kind of drug.D. A kind of nut.2.What is the purpose of drinking coffee?A. To become more awake.B. To become more healthy.C. To become more happy.D. To become more clever.3.Coffee was first found by a __________.A. doctorB. farmerC. druggist(药剂师)D. chemist(化学家)4.How did the goats react after eating the plants?A. They fell asleep.B. They could not find their way home.C. They started jumping up and down.D. They wanted to eat more.5.Why did the green bean get the name "Kaffa"?A. Because Kaldi loved his home village very much.B. Because Kaldi's goats loved the green bean very much.C. Because the beans were discovered in a place by this name.D. Because the beans could be picked and dried.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.Pepys and his wife had asked some friends to dinner on Sunday, September 2nd, 1666. The servants (女仆) were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday morning, the glow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it. Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see it. So he set to work to tidy (整理) his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything.While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on LondonBridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a baker's house in Pudding Lane (小巷), and then the flames (火焰) had quickly spread to the other houses in the narrow lane. So began the Great Fire of London, a fire that lasted nearly five days, destroyed most of the old city and ended, so it is said, at Pie Corner.6.The servants were up very late because _______________.A. they were chattingB. they were having a partyC. they were preparing for a dinnerD. they were watching a fire7.Pepys went back to bed because _______________.A. he was not interested in chatting about a fireB. he did not think the fire was anything specialC. the fire was far awayD. the fire had died down8.When Pepys was tidying his room and things, Jane came in and told him that _______________.A. the fire was dying downB. the fire had been put outC. the fire was a bad oneD. no flame could be seen9.The fire started _________________.A. on LondonBridgeB. in a baker's houseC. because the lane was too narrow for people to come inD. because people could not get enough water to put it out10.Pie Corner was __________________.A. the site of the Tower of LondonB. the site of the Great Fire of LondonC. the place where the fire endedD. the place where Pepys livedQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog.In the United States 84 colleges now accept just women. Most of these colleges were established in the 19th century; they were designed to offer women the education they could not receive anywhere else. At that time major universities and colleges accepted only men. In the past 20 years many young women have chosen to study at colleges that accept both men and women. As a result some women's colleges decided to accept men students too. Others, however, refused to change. Now these schools are popular (流行的) again.The president of Trinity College (三一大学) in Washington, D.C. said that by the end of the 1980s women began to recognize that studying at the same school with men did not mean women were having an equal chance to learn. The president of SmithCollege in Massachusetts says a women's college permits women to choose classes and activities freely. For example, she says that in a women's college a higher percentage of students studies mathematics than in a college with both men and women.Educational experts say men students in the United States usually speak in class more than women students do. In a women's college, women feel freer to say what they think. Women's schools also bring out leadership capabilities in many women. Women are represented everywhere. For example, at a women's college every governing office is held by a woman. Recent studies reportedly show that this leadership continues after college. American women who went to women's colleges are more likely to hold successful jobs later in life.11.Women's colleges were established to ________________.A. give women the same right of education that men enjoyB. make changes to the traditional educational system (系统)C. defy men's privilege (特权) in societyD. train women in particular fields12.Studying at the same school with men does not mean ________________.A. women can do the same thing as menB. that women are given the same chance as menC. women are allowed more freedom to develop themselvesD. the present educational system does not allow other choices13.According to the passage, in women's schools _________________.A. women are freer than if they study at the same school with menB. women could do anything they wantC. they teach things peculiar to womenD. men are openly challenged14.Which one of the following statements is NOT true about women's college?A. Women feel freer to say what they think.B. More women can participate in the management of the college.C. A very high percentage of women will become leaders later.D. Women are more likely to be successful in their later careers.15.The title of this passage is most likely to be ______.A. Female Education in the United StatesB. Women's Schools in the United StatesC. Women Should be Given the Same Education as MenD. Education in AmericaQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog.Being a man has always been dangerous. There are about 105 males born for every 100 females. However, this number changes a great deal, and by the age of maturity (成熟), the number of young men is about the same as that of young women. And among 70-year old people, there are twice as many women as men. But this great universal (普遍性) truth is changing. Now, boy babies survive almost as well as girls do. This means that for the first time there will be too many boys in those crucial (至关紧要的) years when boys are searching for a mate. What is even more troubling is that the survival of so many boys has removed a chance for natural selection (选择) to do its work. Fifty years ago, the chance of a baby surviving depended on its weight. A kilogram too light or too heavy meant almost certain death. Today it makes almost no difference. Since much of the difference in weight is due to genes (基因), a force of change has gone.There is another way to commit evolutionary (进化的) suicide: stay alive, but have fewer children. Except in some religious communities, very few women have 15 children. Nowadays the number of births, like the age of death, has become average. Most of us have roughly the same number of children. Again, differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to take advantage of it have disappeared.For us, this means that people will no longer experience the physical changes that other living things do; our bodies are as perfect as they are ever going to be. Strangely, we have been able to make great advancements without physical change. In the past 100,000 years—even the past 100 years—our lives have been transformed but our bodies have not. We managed to make such changes because of technology and social systems.Darwin had a phrase to describe those ignorant of the process of change; they "look at living beings like a dog looks at a ship, as at something wholly beyond their comprehension." No doubt we will be shocked at the ugliness of the 20th century way of life. But however amazed future people may be at how far fromperfection we were, those future people will look just like us.16.According to the author, what was the danger a man had to face in the past?A. Lack of mates.B. Strong competition.C. Lower chance of living to maturity.D. Genes.17.The sentence "There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide" perhaps means_______________________________________.A. there is another way to stop the society from making progressB. you can kill yourself by another meansC. there is another factor to prevent us from evolvingD. we have to find a way to do something18.Women except _______________ are having relatively small numbers of children.A. those who live to be very oldB. those who live in religious communitiesC. those who have the advantage of technologyD. those who live in poor countries19.The author argues that our bodies have stopped evolving because____________________________.A. life has been improved by technological advancementB. the number of female babies has been decliningC. we have reached the highest stage of evolutionD. the difference between wealth and poverty (贫穷) is disappearing20.What is this passage mainly about?A. The change in the numbers of boys and girls.B. Ways of continuing man's evolution.C. The evolution future of nature.D. Human evolution going nowhere.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the same passage or dialog.A little noticed change has been taking place in our time-world. The arrival of digital (数字的) time has been changing the way we act and think. I believe that it has put us to a higher level of anxiety, with greater expectations of efficiency.The old, round, hand-moved time still kept a certain connection to the natural flow of things, to the roundness of the earth, and to the changes of light and seasons. Old, round time was outside ourselves, far enough removed from us so we could ignore it if we so chose.It is not so with digital time, which is a beat. It beats instead of turning. It makes a sound like the sound of the heart and thus places itself smoothly into the body. More and more,we mistake its regular beat for our own, thus mistaking the demands of the world for our wishes.Before wrist watches, time used to live in towers in the centers of towns. At that distance, it could be seen by everybody, but only if they so wished. It took an effort, an actual visit to "time". But then something happened. Time began to live with us, and now it is beginning to live in us.I remember what it was like to be a child, absorbed in the endlessly changeable thing of time. For me there was only child time, divided meaninglessly and quite painfully by the orders of the parents into Bedtime, Wakeup Time, and School Time. But within each of those divisions (分割), Eternity still ruled. Later, of course, they managed to infect me with the anxious demands of clock time. Very soon, all that remained was the anxiety of that which was exact. The fast beats of the timepiece (时钟) cut Eternity to pieces.Occasionally, I stop long enough to recall the times of childhood, but not often enough. Like everybody else, I am helpless before the new technologies. Time is a virus, and it is growing stronger.21.Digital time has changed how we act and think by ____________________.A. allowing us to work with more efficiencyB. giving us more time to do what we likeC. causing us to be more anxiousD. having us expect more of others22.The author thinks that the old clocks ____________________.A. are somehow linked with the seasonal changesB. stay closer to people than a digital watchC. are connected with human's handsD. work better than a wrist watch23.Before watches, clocks were located __________________.A. everywhere for everyone to seeB. wherever a person wishedC. on the wristD. in the center of town24.In the author's early childhood memory, _________________.A. time was a concrete thingB. time seemed to have no endC. he fought against his parents' idea of timeD. he enjoyed the anxiety of precision (精确)25.The author's attitude towards time in the modern world is ____________.A. positiveB. unclearC. negativeD. in the middle。

新视野大学英语(第三版)第二册读写教程、视听说教程全部答案+教案(Units1-7)New Horizon College EnglishBOOK 2(3rd Edition)Unit 1 Text AEx.1 Understanding the text1、Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules.2、The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account; however, what the student could do was only one single ut terance :“whoa!” without any any specific comment.3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language.4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with.5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs.6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before.7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”as vocabulary.8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, though in two different situations and with two different feelings.Ex.3 Words in use1.condense2.exceed3.deficit4.exposure5.asset6.adequate/doc/694713736.html,petent8.adjusting9.precisely 10.beneficialEx.4 Word building-al/-ial:managerial/editorial/substance/survival/tradition/margin -cy : consistency/accuracy/efficient-y : recovery/ministry/assemblyEx.5 Word building1.editorial2.recovery3.accuracy4.substance5.managerial6.margin7.assembly8.Ministry9.survival 10.tradition 11.consistency 12.efficientEx.6 Banked cloze1-5: L C J A I 6-10: O N E H FEx.7 Expressions in use1.feel obliged to2.be serious about3.run into4.distinguish between5.thrust upon6.was allergic to7.get lost8.be attracted to9.make sense 10.looked upon asEx.8 Structured writingSome bookworms in my dormitory often spend hours reading their “Bible”, Practical English Grammar, and do a lot of exercises in that book , but I don’t ca re about it at all. My assumption is since I have never learned Chinese grammar, what’s the sense of learning English grammar? In fact, English grammar has always been a big headache to me.English grammar is very complicated because, unlike Chinese, there are many verb tenses. Even stranger than verb tenses, English grammar also contains something very confusing. For example, I don’t remember how many times my middle school teacher tried to“impose”the differences between used to and be used to on us. Sometimes he would go on with the explanation for 20 minutes or so. He even summarized the differences by listing three or four points for us to memorize. However, they could never stay in my head . I don’t remember how many times I got it wrong with the sentences containingused to or be used to on my exams . I was really confused with these two phrases,and I can never get them right.In brief, I’m allergic to learning English grammar. Curiously, I just wonder if the native speakers of English have a microcomputer in their brain to help them utter the two phrases promptly with just a click of their brain mouse!Ex.9 E-C Translation人们普遍认为英语是一种世界语言,经常被许多不以英语为第一语言的国家使用。

Reading Comprehension (25%)Directions: Read the following passages and choose the corresponding answer. Passage 1Female employees consistently pay lower airfares than men do for the same flights because they tend to book earlier.We compared the airfare paid by employees in the same position within a company for the same class of travel and used a common statistical technique to account for other factors that might affect differences in airfares. We found that women paid on average $18 less per ticket than their male colleagues. Further investigation allowed us to conclude that this gap is largely explained by the fact that women tended to book earlier than men, 1.8 days on average.We wanted to determine what was causing these gender differences in booking business trips so we tested a variety of possible explanations, such as women choosing to plan ahead or male frequent travelers being inclined to book late. None of these explained away the gender gap, so we applied data collected from surveys that express consumer preferences that play a central role in economic decisions, such as patience and risk avoidance.We found that only the concept of "negative reciprocity"-in which an employee who feels unfairly treated engages in negative behaviors, such as spending their company's money less carefully- explains these differences. The surveys showed men tend to exhibit more of these negative behaviors than women.This isn't to say that all men engage in these behaviors-or that booking relatively late is a sign of abnormal behavior. It only means that the gender gap disappears when we plug in the negativereciprocity variable.Prior research on negative reciprocity among workers found that it can result in lower employee motivation, business performances and workplace morale (士气) and culture.Our results show another way these negative behaviors can manifest themselves, like in airline bookings, and add to evidence that women are less likely to engage in them.Companies spend significant sums of money on business travel. While that $18 difference per ticket may seem small, it adds up. Our analysis suggests early booking by women can translate into savings of $1 million a year for a large multinational company with 20,000 regular travelers.1.What did the author's team conclude about the gender difference in airfares from their further investigation?A.It is largely attributed to women booking earlier than men.B.It is largely explained by women's choosing cheaper flights.C.It is mainly accounted for by male employees' readiness to pay more.D.It is due to the fact that women care more about their company's money.2.What did the researchers want to determine by testing a variety of possible explanations?A.What made male frequent travelers book air tickets late.B.What caused women to plan ahead in booking business trips.C.What motivated women to book cheaper flights.D.What accounted for the gender gap in airfares.3.What happened when the negative reciprocity variable was taken into account?A.Both men and women were found to engage in negative behaviors.B.Neither men nor women viewed booking late as a bad behavior.C.The gender difference in airfare expenses no longer existed.D, The gender gap tended to narrow to a significant degree.4.What did prior research on negative reciprocity among workers find?A.It can do more harm to the workplace than to employees.B.It contributes to the male-female divide in the workplace.C.It proves to be counterproductive in a number of ways.D.It can result in increasing labor-management conflicts.5.What does the author emphasize about their analysis in the last paragraph?A.It can help companies increase their savings significantly.B.It can duly contribute to companies’ business performance.C.It can translate women's booking practice into men's behavior.D.It can enhance large multinational companies' competitiveness.Passage 2Daniel waved at his mother who was watching from the kitchen window. She waved back. He was having fun tossing his new football into the air and catching it again. Suddenly, he saw the neighbor’s gray cat crawl along the top of the wooden fence that divided his backyard from the neighbor’s.“You mean old cat!” Daniel shouted. Daniel didn’t like that cat. He had tried to pet it once and got a big scratch. The cat yawned and then scratched the top of the fence. Tiny pieces of wood floated down to the grass. “Stop wrecking my daddy’s fence!” Daniel demanded. He took the football and threw it with all his might. At the last possible instant, the cat jumped out of the way. The ball flew over the fence, passing right where the cat had been.Then he heard a SMASH! “Oh, no!” he groaned. Daniel crept toward the fence and peeked through a crack. He saw his football lying by the wall of his neighbor’s house. And right beside it was a big blue flowerpot cracked on one side. “Oh, no!” Daniel moaned, “What am I going to do?”Daniel walked around to the gate. “I should ask for permission to go into our neighbor’s yard,” he thought. “But then Mom will find out about the bad thing I’ve done. “He didn’t want that to happen. Instead, he checked the latch. It wasn’t locked. Opening the gate, Daniel walked inside. He ran toward his football and quickly picked it up. Staring at the broken flowerpot, he wondered what to do. “Whatever l do, I’dbetter hurry,” he thought. “l shouldn't be here.”Daniel stuffed the pieces of pottery into the pocket of his sweat shirt. “This is really bad,” he mumbled. Grabbing the flowerpot with both hands, he spun it around until the broken spot faced the wall. He smiled. The bad thing was hard to see. “Now I’ve got to hide the pieces,” he thought. Closing the gate behind him, Daniel searched for a place to hide the broken pieces.“Daniel, where have you been?” Mom asked as she headed up the sidewalk. Daniel wanted to say that he’d been playing in the front yard. He wanted to lie. But that would be another bad thing. He remembered all the bad things he had done: throwing the ball at the cat, smashing the flowerpot, going into the neighbor’s yard without permission. He suddenly realized his fourth bad thing: trying to hide the broken flowerpot.And now Daniel wanted to hide all his bad things with a big lie. No, that would be really bad, he decided. “Mom, would you still love me, even if l told you some bad things I've done?” he asked. His mother smiled and said, “Of course, Daniel!” She knelt beside him so that she could listen better. Daniel took a deep breath and pulled a handful of pottery out of his pocket. Mom could see the broken pieces, but that was okay because telling the truth was easier than telling a lie.6. Before seeing the neighbor’s cat, Daniel was having fun .A. waving at his motherB. tossing his football at the catC. watching his mother from the kitchen windowD. throwing his football into the air and catching it again7. Daniel threw his football at the cat with .A. all his strengthB. all his effortC. all his courageD. all his anger8. What did Daniel do after he broke the neighbor’s flowerpot?A.

Reading Comprehension (40%)Directions: Read the following passage(s); carefully and do the multiple-choice questions. Text 1Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a step back from the closeness of human interaction. With e-mail and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.As almost every imaginable contact between human beings becomes automatic by machine, the alienation quotient goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person anywhere. Directory assistance is almost always fully automatic by machine. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good-morning to the worker when you can swipe (刷卡) your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Placing money at the bank? Why talk to a clerk who might live in the neighborhood when you can just put your credit card into the ATM?Pretty soon you won't have the hard task of making eye contact at the grocery store. Some grocery chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding thoseannoying clerks who look at you and ask how you are doing.21.

If you are like a lot of American workers today, you experience a significant amount of stress in work. Stress doesn't just ma ke you unhappy at work. It can affect your health.

A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. A great athlete practices until he can play quickly accurately without thinking. Tennis players call that "being in the zone." Educators call it "automatically."A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and decoding the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase. With automaticity, he doesn't have to think about decoding the words, so he can concentrate on the meaning of the text.It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found autom atic readers in the first grade who were reading almost three times as fast as the other children and scoring twice as high on comprehension tests. At fifth grade, the automatic readers were reading twice as fast as the others; and still outscoring them on accuracy, comprehension and vocabulary."It's not I. Q. but the amount of time a child spends reading that is the key to autom aticity, " according to Rossman. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will in all likelihood reach automaticity.At home, where the average child spends 25 hours a week watching television, it can happen by turning off the set just one night in favor of reading.You can test your child by giving him a paragraph or two to read aloud - som ething unfamiliar but appropriate to his age. If he reads aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, he probably is an automatic reader. If he reads haltingly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, he needs more practice.35. The first paragraph tells us ________.A) what automaticity isB) how accuracy is acquiredC) how a child learns to walkD) how an athlete is trained36. An automatic reader _______.A) sounds out the lettersB) concentrates on meaningC) has a high I.Q.D) pays much attention to the structures of sentences37. The Illinois study shows that the automatic reader's high speed ________.A) costs him a lot of workB) affects his comprehensionC) leads to his future successD) doesn't affect his comprehension39. A bright child ________.A) also needs practice to be an automatic readerB) always achieves great success in comprehension testsC) becomes an automatic reader after learning how to readD) is a born automatic reader40. The main idea of the passage isA) how to score high on comprehension testsB) reading is the key to school successC) how to test your child's reading abilityD) automaticity is important for efficient readingIII. Vocabulary and StructureDirections: Choose the best one to complete each sentence.(30 points)41.

Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: Read the following four passages carefully and answer the questions below each passage by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1A man was telling one of his friends why he was content with his married life. "My wife makes all the small decisions," he explained, "and I make all the big ones, so we never try to have too much influence in each other's business and never get annoyed with each other. We have no complaints and no arguments.""That sounds reasonable," answered his friend sympathetically. "And what sort of decisions does your wife make?""Well," answered the man, "she decides what jobs I apply for, what sort of house we live in, what furniture we have, where we go for our holidays, and things like that."His friend was surprised. "Oh?" he said. "And what do you consider important decisions then?""Well," answered the man, "I decide who should be President, whether we should increase our help to poor countries, what we should do about the atom bomb (原子弹), and things like that."11. The man was content with his married life because _______ .A) he and his wife loved each other deeplyB) he has more power in family lifeC) he and his wife were responsible for different thingsD) he had many good friends12. His friend _______ .A) didn't believe what the man said at firstB) insisted that a man have the right to make all decisions in family lifeC) thought the man's wife had no right at all in family lifeD) was curious about which decisions the man made and which ones his wife made13. The man can decide ______ .A) which house to buy B) where to workC) where to go for their holiday D) none of above14. We can tell from the story that ________ .A) the man's wife has the final say in the familyB) the man has the final say in the familyC) the man's friend will follow his exampleD) the man and his wife respect each other15. Your choice of the title would be ________ .A) A man and his friend B) A loving husbandC) A happy married life D) A couplePassage 2Being a man has always been dangerous. There are about 105 males born for every 100 females, but this ratio drops to near balance at the age of maturity, and among 70-yearold people there are twice as many women as men. But the great universal ( 普遍性) of male mortality is being changed. Now, boy babies survive almost as well as girls do. This means that for the first time there will be an excess of boys in those crucial years when they are searching for a mate. More important, another chance for natural selection has been removed. Fifty years ago, the chance of a baby surviving depended on its weight. A kilogram too light or too heavy meant almost certain death. Today it makes almost no difference. Since much of the variation is due to genes, one more force of evolution has gone.There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide: stay alive, but have fewer children. Except in some religious communities, very few women have 15 children. Nowadays the number of births, like the age of death, has become average. Most of us have roughly the same number of children. Again, differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to take advantage of it have disappeared. India shows what is happening. The country offers wealth for a few in the great cities and poverty for the remaining tribal peoples. The grand mediocrity of today-everyone being the same in survival and number of children-means that natural selection has lost 80% of its power in middle-class compared to the tribe.For us, this means that evolution is over; the biological Utopia has arrived. Strangely, it has involved little physical change. No other species fills so many places in nature. But in the past 100 000 years- even the past 100 years-our lives have been transformed but our bodies have not. We did not evolve, because machines and society did it for us. Darwin had a phrase to describe those ignorant of evolution; they "look at an organic being as a savage looks at a ship, as at something wholly beyond his comprehension." No doubt we will remember a 20th century way of life beyond comprehension for its ugliness. But however amazed our descendants may be at how far from Utopia we were, they will look just like us.16. According to the author, what was the danger a man had to face?A) Lack of mates.B) Fierce competition.C) Lower survival. D) Gene.17. The sentence "There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide" perhaps means .A) there is another way to stop the society from making progressB) you can kill yourself by another meansC) there is another factor to prevent us from evolvingD) we have to find a way to do something18. The example of India interprets that ____ .A) wealthy people tend to have fewer children than poor peopleB) natural selection hardly works among the rich and the poorC) the middle-class population is 80% smaller than that of the tribesD) India is one of the countries with a very high birth rate19. The author argues that our bodies have stopped evolving because ___ .A) life has been improved by technological advanceB) the number of female babies has been decliningC) our species has reached the highest stage of evolutionD) the difference between wealth and poverty is disappearing20. What is the main idea of the passage?A) Sex ratio changes in human evolution.B) Ways of continuing man's evolution.C) The evolution future of nature.D) Human evolution going nowhere.Passage 3Rote-learning ( 死记硬背), spoon-fed education, produces a brand of kids that don't know what to do when entering university. They are disciplined into following, not leading. Yet the future depends on creativity and imagination. The world needs creators, makers and shakers of the new centuries, not the followers of the past centuries. As the numbers increase at college and university level, more students from the lower ends are likely to be thrown into a system designed to choose only learners that have proved excellent in listening to teachers.There are three ways to learn: looking, listening and doing.Students and teachers today are a product of learning by listening. The computer may not be liked by traditional teachers, who use rote-learning to put information, which will be out of date in a few years, into the heads of the students. With computer learning you learn by looking, listening and doing; you use three methods of learning, not just one. Therefore, you can learn faster.The changing speed of information is frightening. What we learn now will be out of date in the near future. So what students are learning now at school may be replaced by the time they finish university. We have to learn by choice what to forget. Rote-learning for exams is one thing, but wouldn't it be better to learn how to learn? The students at university today could possibly be doing a job in the not too distant future which has not yet been invented. 21 According to the author, the future doesn't need _______________ .A) creativity B) imagination C) creators D) followers22 In the author's view, how can students learn well?A) Carefully listen to the teacher in class.B) Take down every single word said by the teacher.C) Learn all the notes by heart.D) Combine listening with looking and doing.23 What does the author mean by "The changing speed of information is frightening"?A) We don't have enough time to adjust ourselves to the speed of information.B) What we learned today may not be useful tomorrow.C) The pace of life is too fast.D) The world is changing every minute.24 What does the last sentence of the passage tell us?A) Rote-learning is completely harmful.B) Students may have to do jobs which have not yet been invented.C) It's better to learn how to learn than learn what to forget.D) Students must look into the future.25 The author's attitude towards rote-learning is ________ .A) approving B) disapprovingC) confident D) opposite to what the words sayPassage 4A man was telling one of his friends why he was content with his married life. "My wife makes all the small decisions," he explained, "and I make all the big ones, so we never try to have too much influence in each other's business and never get annoyed with each other. We have no complaints and no arguments.""That sounds reasonable," answered his friend sympathetically. "And whatsort of decisions does your wife make?""Well," answered the man, "she decides what jobs I apply for, what sort of house we live in, what furniture we have, where we go for our holidays, and things like that."His friend was surprised. "Oh?" he said. "And what do you consider important decisions then?""Well," answered the man, "I decide who should be President, whether we should increase our help to poor countries, what we should do about the atom bomb (原子弹), and things like that."26 The man was content with his married life because ________ .A) he and his wife loved each other deeplyB) he has more power in family lifeC) he and his wife were responsible for different thingsD) he had many good friends27 His friend _______ .A) didn't believe what the man said at firstB) insisted that a man have the right to make all decisions in family lifeC) thought the man's wife had no right at all in family lifeD) was curious about which decisions the man made and which ones his wife made28 The man can decide _______ .A) which house to buy B) where to workC) where to go for their holiday D) none of above29 We can tell from the story that ________ .A) the man's wife has the final say in the familyB) the man has the final say in the familyC) the man's friend will follow his exampleD) the man and his wife respect each other30 Your choice of the title would be ________ .A) A man and his friend B) A loving husbandC) A happy married life D) A couplePart III.

For example, some people believe that if they have much money or many things, they will be happy. They believe that if they are wealthy, they will be able to do everything they want, and so they will be happy. On the other hand, some people believe that money is not the only happiness. These people value their religion, or their intelligence, or their health; these make them happy. For me, happiness is closely tied to my family. I am happy if my wife and my children live in harmony. When all members of my family share good and sad times, and when my children communicate with each other and work together, I am happy. Although the definition of happiness depends on each individual, my “wealth ”of happiness is in my family.。

Love can be seen everywhere .Yet surprisingly, love has been the subject of less scientific research than other emotions. such as anger and fear. The reason for this may be twofold. First, love is a very complex(复杂)emotion, difficult to describe and measure. Secondly, unlike many radical emotions, radical love is generally not a problem; thus less medical attention has been paid to it.What is love This is a complex question and requires a complex answer. Love is a strong, positive attraction and feeling for another person or thing. But is more than this .It also involves feeling of caring, protection, excitement, and tenderness(温和).When two people are in love, they feel drawn to one another, they greatly enjoy each other's company; and they may be sexually attracted to one another.Sometimes it is easier to think in terms of different kinds of love: romantic love, brotherly love, and so forth. Though they are different in some respects, they share one important characteristic: a strong positive feeling toward another.Our feelings toward other people are often complex. We may love someone and, at the same time, be angry with him. Or we may love someone, even though we are jealous of him. We might even love someone and, at the same time, hate for some precise reason.Hate is a strong negative emotion toward someone, and is due to anger, jealousy, or some other factor. Like love, hate can be a very strong emotion. It can also be very dangerous, The question is often asked, “Is it bad to hate”The best answer is probably “sometimes yes and sometimes no.”Usually hate does not help us; it makes us feel unhappy and makes us do things that may hurt others. However, sometimes it may be necessary to hate and hurt someone in order to protect loved ones. (332 words)1. The word “saved”in the first sentence of this passage means .
