The idea for the first public houses was brought to Britain thousands of years ago by the conquering Roman army. The first pubs served only wine, but after the discovery of hops (啤酒花) in the fourteenth century, pubs began to serve mainly beer, as they do today.Today, there are 61,000 pubs in the United Kingdom. One of the oldest, Fighting Cocks in ST. Albans, Herts, is located in a building that dates back to the 11th century. Modern pubs are often owned by English breweries (啤酒厂) and serve only their owner’s products. Bri tish pubs are required to have a license, which is difficult to obtain, and operate between 11 a.m. and 11 p.m. every day except Sunday, when they must close at 10:30 p.m.The drinking age in Britain is eighteen, but fourteen-year-olds may enter a pub unaccompanied if they order a meal. Children may enter a pub with their parents until 9 p.m., which lets families enjoy reasonably priced pub meals together and allows pubs to continue in their traditional roles as community centers.Customs in British pubs differ from those in American bars. In Britain, you must go to the bar to order drinks and food and pay for your purchase immediately, there is no table service. Bartenders are called “landlords〞and “barmaids〞 and they do not expect frequent tipping. To tip a landlord or barmaid, it is customary (惯例的) to tell him to “buy himself one〞. He or she may or may not take your tip on your offer. At the end of a visit, a polite customer will return his glass to the bar.49. Which of the following is not allowed in Britain?A.Children under 14 entering a pub with their parents.B.Young men over 14 eating in a pub by themselves.C.Children of about 15 drinking in a pub with adults.D.Young men at or older than 18 drinking beer in a pub.50. What can we entertain ourselves with at Fighting Cocks today?A. 100-year-old hops.B. Mainly beer.C. Italian food.D. Just wine.51.We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.A.British pubs and American bars are completely differentB.services in British pubs are better than those in American barsC.in American bars you can pay the bill after the mealD.tip is necessary in both British pubs and American bars52.This passage is mainly written to ________.A. give us some information about British pubsB. compare the British pubs andAmerican barsC.tell us something about the history of British pubsD. let us know somerules in British pubs.PART FOUR WRTINGSECTION ADirections: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet. (6 points)It is December 31, , the time when the old year dies and the New Year is born.Many Americans have parties at home and invite all their friends. Many of these events are noisy. People shout and sing. They often blow on small noisemakers when the New Year arrives at midnight. They kiss their husband or wife or the person they are with. They dance to music. Other Americans spend a quiet evening at home. They drink champagne at midnight to welcome the New Year.Some people drink too much alcohol at New Year’s Eve celebrations .This can lead to tragic results if a person drinks too much and then drives a car. The National Safety Council says hundreds of people die in road accidents during the holiday.In recent years, the danger of accidents has resulted in a new tradition called the “designated driver〞. One person among a group of friends drinks little or no alcohol during New Year’s Eve celebrations. Then this designated driver can safely drive the other people home. Many American cities also offer free taxi service on New Year’s Eve to take people home safely.Other Americans observe the coming of the New Year at events without alcohol. More than 220 American cities hold these First Night celebrations. Artists in Boston Massachusetts started the tradition of First Night celebrations in 1976.They wanted to observe the coming of a New Year. But they did not want to hold noisy drinking parties. So they organized music, art and other events to observe the holiday.53. List at least three things that American people do to celebrate their New Year. (Within 10 words )54. What problem exists during the holiday? (Within 7 words)55. What is the best title of the passage? (Within 8 words)SECTION BDirections: Read the following passage.

That, at least, is what it promised us. The difficulty is that it did not take the hum an mind into account. The reality is that we cannot keep relation ships with more than a limited number of people. No matter ho w hard the Internet tries to put you in communication, its best ef forts will be defeated by your mind.The problem is twofold（双重的）. First, there is a limit on the number of people we can hold in mind and have a meaningful relationship with. That number i s about 150 and is set by the size of our brain. Second, the qual ity of your relationships depends on the amount of time you inv est in then. We invest a lot in a small number of people and the n distribute what’s left among as many others as we can. The p roblem is that if we invest little time in a person, our engagemen t with that person will decline until eventually it dies into “someo ne I once knew”.This is not, of course, to say that the Internet doesn’t serve a so cially valuable function. Of course it does. But the question is n ot that it allows you to increase the size of your social circle to i nclude the rest of the world, but that you can keep your relation ships with your existing friends going even though you have to move to the other side of the world.In one sense, that’s a good thing. But it also has a disadvantag e. If you continue to invest in your old friends even though you c an no longer see them, then certainly you aren’t using your time to make new friends where you now live. And I suspect that pr obably isn’t the best use of your time. Meaningful relationships are about being able to communicate with each other, face to fa ce. The Internet will slow down the rate with which relationshipsend, but it won’t stop that happening eventually.36．The number of friends we can keep relationships with is de cided by__________.A. the InternetB. the time we haveC. the place we liveD. th e mind37．The underlined word “engagement” in the second paragrap h probably means “__________”.A. appointmentB. connectionC. interviewD. agreement 38．The author holds the view that___________.A. the Internet helps to keep in touch with friends far awayB. the Internet determines the quality of social relationshipsC. the Internet greatly increases the size of social circlesD. the Internet is of no value in social communication 39．What will the author encourage us to do?A. To keep in touch with old friends when we have moved away .B. To chat with friends often on the Internet.C. To make more new friends face to face.D. To stop using the Internet to make new friends.40．What is the author’s attitude towards the use of the Interne t to strengthen relationships?A. He thinks it uselessB. He is hopeful of it.C. He approves of it.D. He doubts it.A woman named Emily renewing her driver’s license at the ’s o ffice was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertai n how to classify herself.“What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a …”“Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “I’m a mother.”“We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation…‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.One day I found myself in the same situation. The clerk was ob viously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sou nding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked.The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my state ment was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire. “Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doe sn’t), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indo ors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often wor k 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challen ging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction r ather than just money.”There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (受鼓舞) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assis tants---ages 13, 7, and 3.Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month ol d baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”Motherhood…What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.41．What can we infer from the conversation between the wom an and the recorder at the beginning of the passage?A. The recorder was impatient and rude.B. The woman felt ashamed to admit what her job was.C. The author was upset about the situation that mothers faced.D. Motherhood was not recognized and respected as a job by s ociety.42．How did the female clerk feel at first when the author told h er occupation?A. curiousB. indifferentC. puzzledD. interested43．Why did the woman clerk show more respect for the author ?A. Because the author cared little about rewards.B. Because she thought the author did admirable work.C. Because she admired the author’s research work in the lab.D. Because the writer did something she had little knowledge of .44．What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?A. To show how you describe your job affects your feelings tow ard it.B. To argue that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect.C. To show that the author had a greater job than Emily.D. To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.To help make the most of your experience at Auckland Zoo we suggest:Plan Your Day:Plan your day to learn more about your favorite zoo animals.

It was my moth er’s idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and d ecided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of k eeping up with the competition.With my load of magazines I headed toward . The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville an d Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it wassupper time, I walked back home.“How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“None.”“Where did you go?”“The corner of and Union Avenues.”“What did you do?”“Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday E vening Post.”“You just stood there?”“Didn’t sell a single one.”“My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “Well,I’ve decided to take the Post.” I hande d him a copy and he paid me a nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matte r how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Po st in the home.One day, I told my mother I’d changed my mind. I didn’t want to make a success in the magazine business.“If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “y ou’ll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I shoul d start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no , she would scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my father’s plain work man’s life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a s uccessful journalist as me would go back to her husband’s peo ple for true life and love.48．Why did the boy start his job young?A．He wanted to be famous in the future B．The job was quite easy for him.C．His mother had high hopes for him.

Parents using facetoface buggies were twice as likel y to talk to their children while the babies’ heart rates fell and th ey were twice as likely to fall asleep，showing that they were feeling relaxed and safe.In addition，only one baby out of the 20 studied laughed while sitting in an awayfacing buggy.“Our data(数据) suggests that for many babies today，life in a buggy is emotionally impoverished and possibly stressf ul. Stressed babies grow into anxious adults，” said Dr Suzann e Zeedyk，Developmental Psychologist at Scotland’s Dundee University w ho carried out the research.The study，which was published by National Literacy Trust as part of its “T alk To Your Baby” campaign，found that 62 percent of all children observed travelled in awayf acing buggies.Zeedyk said it would have a negative effect on babies’ develop ment if they spent a long time in awayfacing buggies，which would be bad to their ability to communicate with their pa rent at a time when their brain was developing rapidly.Laura Barbour of the Sutton Trust，a social mobility charity which funded the research，said buggy manufacturers(制造商) should look closely at the findings.53．Using awayfacing buggies may________.A．benefit both the babies and their parentsB．affect babies’ language ability permanentlyC．help babies communicate with their parentsD．have positive effect on babies’ development54．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．Best for Kids to Face Parents in BuggyB．Best for Kids to Communicate with ParentsC．Stressed Babies Grow into Anxious AdultsD．Buggy Manufacturers Care about the FindingThe weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks coolmay not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy dri nks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your healt h. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks h ave lots of caffeine(咖啡碱)in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes s ay their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awa ke. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your h eart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Comm ittee(IOC) has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have s omething to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even c ause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be di scouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them. 56．Many people like drinking energy drinks because of the foll owing EXCEPT that ______.A. they have beautiful colors and cool namesB. they have lots of caffeineC. they can keep them awake and better at sportsD. they are said to be helpful to health57．The main reason for people not to drink too much energy d rinks is that they may cause ______.A. heart problemsB. nervousnessC. sleeping difficultyD. possible health dangers58．The underlined word “discouraged” can be replaced(替换) with ______.A. encouragedB. stoppedC. helpedD. disliked 59．From the passage we can know that ______.A.advertisements are important in getting people to buy energy drinksB.energy drinks are helpful to teenagers’ studyC.sports players need to drink a lot of energy drinksD.energy drinks are especially aimed at teenagers60．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? ______A.
