People play different games in winter and summer.Games and sports often grow out of people's workand everyday activities. The Arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life; they use them in their sports, too.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.Some sports or games go back to thousands of years ago, like running or jumping. Chinese boxing, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game they often become good friends. Sports help to train a person's character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace.正确答案:第12题,内容提示:假如你叫张琳,你昨天(4月7日)在放学回家的路上发生了交通事故,你从自行车上摔了下来,被好心人及时送到了医院,医生叫你卧床休息三天,特此请假(ask for a sick leave)要求:1、请根据以上内容,向班主任张老师写一张请假条;2、以第一人称写,不能逐字翻译;3、词数80左右。

He hardly e ver left his home, but one day he went into town to buy some things in the market. After he had bought them, he went into a restaurant and sat down at a table by himself. When he looked around, he saw several old people put glasses on before reading their newspapers, so after lunch he decided to go to a shop to buy himself some glasses too. He walked alo ng the road, and soon found a shop.The man in the shop made him try on a lot of glasses, but Tom always s aid, “No, I can’t read with these.”The man became more and more puzzled (迷惑不解), until finally he said, “Excuse me, but can you read at all?”“No, of course I can’t!”Tom said angrily. “If I was already able to re ad, do you think I would have come here to buy glasses?”1、 Mr. Forester lived __________.2、Tom __________ went into town.3、The old people in the restaurant read their newspapers __________.4、The shop Tom went into sold __________.5、What kind of mistake did Tom make?210分阅读理解判断题:A foreigner’s first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is i n a rush —often under pressure. City people appear always to be hurryi ng to get where they are going restlessly, seeking attention in a store, an d elbowing others as they try to complete their errands(任务). Racing thro ugh daytime meals is part of life in this country.Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are w aiting for you to finish so that they can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next p erson. If you don’t, waiters will hurry you.You also find drivers will be abrupt and that people will push past you. Y ou will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small courtesies with stranger s. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else “wasting”it beyond a certain courtesy point. The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the Am erican system of values, patience is not a high priority. Many of us have what might be called “a short fuse”. We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some return—be this in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from lands where time is look ed upon differently may find this matter of place to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call, for example, they will miss the ritual socializing that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee that may be traditional in their own coun try. They may miss leisurely business chats in a caféor coffeehouse. Nor mally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks. We seek out evidence of past performance rat her than evaluate a business colleague through social courtesies. Since we generally asses and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talk ing business very quickly.1、The statement that Americans are impolite to their business colleagues is wrong.2、In the fourth paragraph, “a high priority”means “a fish concern”.3、Americans evaluate a business colleague by establishing business relatio ns.4、This passage mainly talks about how Americans do business with foreig ners.5、We can infer from the passage that the author’s tone in writing is pr aiseful.三、论述题共1题,10分110分作文:我最喜欢的书The Book I Like Best1.你最喜欢哪本书2.你喜欢的理由The book I like best is "The Little Prince" because I think I have benefite a lo t from reading it.

´óѧӢÓͳ¿¼£©ÔÚÏßÁ·Ï°Ìâ4(¿Í¹ÛÌâ)ÊÔ¾í×Ü·Ö:100 µÃ·Ö:0Ò»¡¢ ÔĶÁÀí½â (¹² 4 µÀÊÔÌâ,¹² 40 ·Ö)1. For any Englishman, there can never be any discussion as to who is the world¡¯s greatest dramatist (¾ç×÷¼Ò). Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the work of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare¡¯s writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations.Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, makes full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal use of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand.There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare¡¯s day.1). English people _______.A. have never discussed who is the world¡¯s greatest dramatistB. never discuss any issue concerning the world¡¯s greatest dramatistC. are sure who is the world¡¯s greatest dramatistD. do not care who is the world¡¯s greatest po et and dramatistÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö2). Every Englishman knows _______.A. more or less about ShakespeareB. Shakespeare, but only slightlyC. all Shakespeare¡¯s writingsD. only the name of the greatest English writerÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö3). Which of the following is true?A. We use all the words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare¡¯s writings.B. Shakespeare¡¯s writings have become the property of those who are learning to speak English.C. It is likely to be true that people often do not know the origins of the words they useD. All the words people use are taken from the writings of Shakespeare.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö4). What does the word ¡°proverb¡± mean?A. Familiar sayings.B. Shakespeare¡¯s plays.C. Complaints.D. Actors and actresses.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö5). Why is it worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English?A. English words have changed a lot since Shakespeare¡¯s time.B. By doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of the English language.C. Eng lish words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeare¡¯s time.D. Beginners may have difficulty learning some aspects of English usage.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö2. Education in the United States is usually divided into four levels. These are early children, elementary, secondary and higher education. School attendance is required in every state of the country, and in most states students must attend school from the age of 6 to 16.The first level is early childhood education. Its main purpose is to prepare children for school. The second level is elementary education. Education at this level is divided into six or eight grades,and children learn reading, arithmetic, writing, social studies and science. They also have art, music and physical education.The third level is secondary education. It is for junior and senior high school students. Some students take courses to prepare themselves for college. Other students take technical or vocational courses that prepare them for jobs after they graduate from high school.Higher education continues after high school. There are many kinds of institutes of higher education. Technical institutes offer two-year programs in electronics, engineering, business and other subjects. After two years at a junior college, students receive an associate degree and then they can continue at a four-year college.1). Is school attendance required in the USA?A. Yes, in the whole country.B. Yes, in some states.C. Yes, in most states.D. Yes, only in a couple of states.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö2). At what levels are programs of technical courses offered?A. Levels 1 and 2.B. Levels 2 and 3.C. Levels 3 and 4.D. Level 4 only.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö3). What degree is awarded to students at a junior college?A. Associate degree.B. Bachelor¡¯s degree.C. Master¡¯s degree.D. Doctor¡¯s degree.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö4). What would be most probably talked about in the next paragraph?A. Undergraduate education.B. Post-graduate education.C. Pre-school education.D. Adult education.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö5). What is the passage mainly about?A. Education policy in the USA.B. The four levels of education in the USA.C. The purpose of education in the USA.D. The subjects offered at schools in the USA.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö3. Soldiers and other military people wear uniforms with various other symbols to indicate their status. But in the business world everyone wears more or less similar suits, and you cannot tell at a glance who ranks higher or lower than another. So how do people in the business world show their superiority?An attempt to study this was made by two researchers using a series of silent films. They had two actors play the parts of an executive (¾Àí) and a visitor, and switch roles each ti me. The scene had one man at his desk playing the part of an executive, while the other, playing the part of a visitor, knocks at the door, opens it and approaches the desk to discuss some business matter. The audience watching the films was asked to rate the executive and the visitor in terms of status. A certain set of rules about status began to emerge from the ratings. The visitor showed the least amount of status when he stopped just inside the door to talk across the room to the seated man. He was considered to have more status when he walked halfway up to the desk, and he had the most status when he walked directly up to the desk and stood right in front of the seated executive.Another thing that affected the status of the visitor in the eyes of the observers was the time betweenknocking and entering. For the seated executive, his status was also affected by the time between hearing the knock and answering. The quicker the visitor entered the room, the more status he had. The longer the executive took to answer, the more status he had.1). The experiment designed by the two researchers aimed at finding out ________ .A. how business is conducted by an executive and a visitorB. how to tell the differences between an executive and a visitorC. how to tell businessmen at a glanceD. how businessmen indicate statusÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö2). Which of the statements can best sum up the passage?A. The executive has a higher status than the visitor.B. Military people wear uniforms but the businessmen do not.C. A study revealing a set of rules about the status of businessmen.D. It is a good method to use a series of silent film in research.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö3). Having entered the room, the closer the visitor approaches the executive, _________ .A. the less it affected his statusB. the lower his statusC. the more it affected his statusD. the higher his statusÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö4). The longer the seated man was in answering the knock, _________ .A. the higher his statusB. the less it affected his statusC. the lower his statusD. the more it affected his statusÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö5). Which statement is NOT true?A. Soldiers wear uniforms with various symbols so that one can tell their status at a glance.B. In the experiment, one actor played the executive while the other played the seated man.C. Business people wear similar suits.D. The audience watching the film rated the executive and the visitor in terms of status.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö4. Believe it or not, optical illusion (´í¾õ)can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. Bent stripes, called chevrons (ÈË×ÖÐÎ), painted on the roads make drive rs think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington . is planning to repeat Japan¡¯s success. Starting next year, the foundation will pa int chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes. Excessive speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards are the greatest---curves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges. Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.1). The passage mainly discusses __________.A. a new way of highway speed controlB. a new pattern for painting highwaysC. a new approach to training driversD. a new type of optical illusionÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö2). On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that __________.A. they should avoid speed-related hazardsB. they are driving in the wrong laneC. they should slow down their speedD. they are approaching the speed limitÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö3). The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former ___________.A. can keep drivers awakeB. can cut road accidents in halfC. will have a longer effect on driversD. will look more attractiveÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö4). The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety Plans to __________.A. try out the Japanese method in certain areasB. change the road signs across the countryC. replace straight, horizontal bars with chevronsD. repeat the Japanese road patternsÂú·Ö£º2 ·Ö5). What does the author say about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads?A. They are falling out of use in the United StatesB. They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.C. They are applicable only on broad roads.D. They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circles.Âú·Ö£º2 ·Ö¶þ¡¢ µ¥Ñ¡Ìâ (¹² 15 µÀÊÔÌâ,¹² 45 ·Ö)1.

At the time France was in a crisis. The government was badly run and people’s lives were miserable. King Louis XIV tried to control the national parliament and raise more taxes. But his effort failed. He ordered his troops to Versailles. The people thought that Louis intended to put down the Revolution by force. On July 14, 1789, they stormed and took the Bastille, where political prisoners were kept. Ever since that day, July 14 has been the French National Day. Louis tried to flee the country in 1792, to get support from Austria and Prussia. However, he was caught and put in prison. In September 1792, the monarchy was abolished. In the same year, Louis was executed. A few months later his wife, Marie, also had her head cut off. The Revolution of France had frightened the other kings of Europe. Armies from Austria and Prussia began to march against France. The French raised republican armies to defend the nation. The Revolution went through a period of terror. Thousands of people lost their lives. In the end, power passed to Napoleon Bonaparte.(1).This passage is about the French Revolution.A.TB.F(2).The national economy was developing rapidly in 1789.A.TB.F(3).The political prisoners were kept in Prussia.A.TB.F(4).The underlined word “abolished”mean “ended”A.TB.F(5).The effect of the Revolution was that the King tried to control the national parliament.A.TB.F正确答案: (1).A (2).B (3).B (4).A (5).B三、论述题(共1 道试题,共10 分)1.作文:通知明天(星期五)全班同学将去参观科学博物馆(the Science Museum),由你(班长)通知全体同学。

1.How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Youth is a time when there are few tasks to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child–—things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison.

But if we had kept a book and had written in it and account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question. It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write. Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “rememberedhistory”. Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.1). Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage?A.“Remembered history”, compared with written history, is less reliable.B. Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history.C. A written account of our daily activities helps us to be able to answer many questions.D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.正确答案:D 满分:2 分2). We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because _______.A. there was nothing worth being written down at that timeB. the people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fireD. the people there did not know how to write正确答案:D 满分:2 分3). “Remembered history” refers to _______.A.history based on a person’s imaginationB. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and dances about the most important eventsD. both B and C正确答案:D 满分:2 分4). “Remembered history” is regarded as val uable only when _______.A.it is written down B. no written account is availableC. it proves to be true D. people are interested in it正确答案:B 满分:2 分5). The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past thanwe do now if the ancient people had _______.A.kept a written record of every past eventB. not burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsD. made more songs and dances正确答案:A 满分:2 分3.We can see how the product life cycle works by looking at the introduction of instant coffee. When it was introduced, most people did not like it as well as “regular” coffee, and it took several years to gain general acceptance (introduction stage). At one point, though, instant coffee grew rapidly in popularity, and many brands were introduced (stage of rapid growth). After a while, people became attached to one brand and sales leveled off (stage of maturity). Sales went into a slight decline(衰退)when freeze-dried coffees were introduced (stage of decline). The importance of the product life cycle to marketers is this: Different stages in the product life cycle call for different strategies. The goal is to extend product life so that sales and profits do not decline. One strategy is called market modification. It means that marketing managers look for new users and market sections. Did you know, for example, that the backpacks that so many students carry today were originally designed for the military? Market modification also means searching for increased usage among present customers or going for a different market, such as senior citizens.A marketer may re-position the product to appeal to new market sections. Another product extension strategy is called product modification. It involves changing product quality, features, or style to attract new users or more usage from present users. American auto manufacturers are using quality improvement as one way to recapture world markets. Note, also, how auto manufacturers once changed styles dramatically from year to year to keep demand from falling.1). According to the passage, when people grow fond of one particular brand of aproduct, its sales will __________.A. decrease gradually B. become unstableC. improve enormously D. remain at the same level正确答案:D 满分:2 分2). The first paragraph tells us that a new product is ___________.A.usually introduced to satisfy different tastesB. often more expensive than old onesC. often inferior to old ones at firstD. not easily accepted by the public正确答案:D 满分:2 分3). Marketers need to know which of the four stages a product is in so as to __________.A. work out marketing policiesB. increase its popularityC. promote its production D. speed up its life cycle正确答案:A 满分:2 分4). The author mentions the example of “backpacks” (Line 4, Para.2) to show the importance of ___________.A.increasing usage among studentsB. exploring new market sectionsC. pleasing the young as well as the oldD. serving both military and civil needs正确答案:B 满分:2 分5). In order to recover their share of the world market, U.S. auto makers are ___________.A.improving product qualityB. modernizing product styleC. re-positioning their product in the marketD. increasing product features正确答案:A 满分:2 分4.The view over a valley of a tiny village with thatched(草盖的)roof cottages around a church; a drive through a narrow village street lined with thatched cottages painted pink or white; the sight over the rolling hills of a pretty collection of thatched farm buildings — these are still common sights in parts of England. Most people will agree that the thatched roof is an essential part of the attraction of the English countryside.Thatching is in fact the oldest of all the building crafts practiced in the British Isles(英论诸岛). Although thatch has always been used for cottage and farm buildings, it was once used for castles and churches, too.Thatching is a solitary(独自的)craft, which often runs in families. The craft of thatching as it is practiced toady has changed very little since the Middle Ages. Over 800 full-time thatchers are employed in England and Wales today, maintaining and renewing the old roofs as well as thatching newer houses. Many property owners choose thatch not only for its beauty but because they know it will keep them cool in summer and warm in winter.In fact, if we look at developing countries, over half the world lives under thatch, but they all do it in different ways. People in developing countries are often reluctant to go back to traditional materials and would prefer modern buildings. However, they may lack the money to allow them to import the necessary materials. Their temporary mud huts with thatched roofs of wild grasses often only last six months. Thatch which has been done the British way lasts from twenty to sixty years, and is an effective defense against the heat.1). Which of the following remains a unique feature of the English countryside?A. Cottages with thatched roofs.B. Churches with cottages around them.C.Rolling hills with pretty farm buildings.D. Narrow streets lined with pink or white houses.正确答案:A 满分:2 分2). What do we know about thatching as a craft?A. It is quite different from what it used to be.B.It is in most cases handed down among family members.C. It is practised on farms all over England.D. It is a collective activity.正确答案:B 满分:2 分3). Thatched houses are still preferred because of _________.A. their durabilityB. their easy maintenanceC.their cheap and ready-made materialsD. their style and comfort正确答案:D 满分:2 分4). People in developing countries also live under thatch because ________.A. they like thatched houses better than other buildingsB. thatch is an effective defense against the heatC.thatched roof houses are the cheapestD. thatched cottages are a big tourist attraction正确答案:C 满分:2 分5).

)V1. People often say that theEnglishman’s home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them personal, and change them in any way they like. Mosthouses have a garden, even if it is a small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a private space which is only for himself or herself and for invited friends.People usually like to mark their space. If you are on the beach you may have spread your towels around you; in the rain you may have put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you; in a library you may spread your books around you. Once I was traveling on a train to London. I was on a section for four people and there was a table between us. The man opposite to me had his briefcase on the table. There was no space on my side of the table at all. I was unhappy. I thought he thought that he owned the whole table. I had been reading a book about nonverbal communication so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his case! When I did this he suddenly became angry and his eyes nearly popped out of his head. I had taken up his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table.1). What does the first sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?A. The home matters greatly to Englishmen.B. The castle is more important than the home.C. The home is more important than the castle.D. Englishmen usually live in homes instead of castles.满分:满分:2 2分2). Which of the following is NOT the reason for most British to live in homes?A. They can make changes in houses in which they live.B. They love houses more than gardens.C. They can own private space like the house and the garden.D. They can keep the private space to themselves and friends.满分:满分:2 2 分3). According to Paragraph 2, if you spread your books around you in a library, it means _______ .A. you want to spread your towels around you furtherB. you want to put your coat on the tableC. you can find no space for your books on the seatD. you want to tell others the space belongs to you满分:满分:2 2 分4). How did the man opposite to the writer show he owned the whole table?A. He sat in a section for four people.B. He placed his briefcase on the tableC. He was traveling on a train to London.D. He was reading a book.满分:满分:2 2 分5). The writer tried to get back his space by ______.A. moving the case off the tableB. taking all his papers outC. taking up the space of the man oppositeD. showing the books concerned to the man满分:满分:2 2 分2. Although the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs, its people are by now almost entirely and urban society. Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry (林业) , and most of the rest live in or around towns, small and large. Here the traditional picture is changing: every small town may still be very like other small towns, and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country, but most Americans do not live in small towns any more. Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitanareas (large cities with their suburbs) of more than a million people each ---- a larger proportion than in Germany or England, let alone France. The statistics(统计) of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in anearby town each day. As the rush to live out of town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses, so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But most and more thetypical American lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.1). If now America If now America has 250 has 250 has 250 million million million people, how many people, how many people, how many of them are engaged of them are engaged in agriculture and forestry?A. About 25 million.B. More than 25 million.C. Less than 25 million.D. Less than 225 million.满分:满分:2 2 分2). Which of the following four countries has the smallest proportion of people living in metropolitan areas?A. United States.B. Germany.C. France.D. England.满分:满分:2 2 分3). What’s the meaning of the word “metropolitan” in the middle of the passage?A. Of a large city with its suburbs.B. Of small and large towns.C. Of urban areas.D. Of rural areas.满分:满分:2 2 分4). According to the passage, what can we learn about small towns in the United States?A. Most small towns become gradually crowded.B. Small towns are still similar to each other.C. As the traditional picture is changing, towns are different.D. Small towns are turning into large cities.满分:满分:2 2 分5). Why is it hard to say when a piece of country becomes a suburb?A. Because they are the same.B. Because the rush takes place too quickly.C. Because the process is gradual.D. Because more and more Americans live in metropolitan areas.满分:满分:2 2 分3. Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history, greater than what only a few other men have achieved. An American university president once commented that Einstein had created a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on---but even ordinary men understand now that the universe is something larger than ever before.By 1994 the young Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited opportunities for study, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by the First World War. Einstein hated violence. Themisery of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.In the years following World War I honors were increasingly heaped on him. He became the head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.1). The main idea of Paragraph 1 is ______.A. the time when people know EinsteinB. the feeling of an American college presidentC. the change in human thought produced by EinsteinD. the difficulty facing teachers in understanding Einstein’s thought满分:满分:2 2 分2).

If you have been joining chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are talking online---many of them are talking at the same time.It’s fast: trying talking to six people once. It’s convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There is neither time nor space forexplanations. Why waste precious time telling six friends you have to leave fora moment to take care of your little brother when BRB (=be right back) will do? Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI(=pardon me for jumping in). I nterested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OFT (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or joining the two into ROTEL (=rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got to go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideasacross as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals.1).

During the first half of the nineteenth century much thought was given to building the Panama Canal. The discovery of gold in California in 1848 brought an increased demand for a transportation link across Panama. A railroad line was completed after six years of hard labor in the swamps (沼泽) and jungles. Over two thousand workmen died from yellow fever and malaria (疟疾). In 1881 a French organization tried to build a canal across the Isthmus (巴拿马地峡). For eleven years workmen struggled against heat and disease. At least 15,000 died before the French gave up their attempts to build the canal. For years the abandoned machinery lay in the jungles. At the close of the Spanish-American War the United States bought a strip of land ten miles wide across the Isthmus. Immediate attention was given to the control of diseases. In two years yellow fever was completely eliminated. Because of the work of American medical heroes, it was possible to build the splendid Panama Canal.1.Prior to the successful completion of the Panama Canal,________.A. France bought a strip of land across the Isthmus ofPanamaB. Malaria was wiped out as a killer diseaseC. one country failed in its attempts to build a canalD. American doctors were honored for their work2.The building of the Panama Canal represents ________.A. man's unyielding desire for progressB. man's unceasing thirst for dangerC. man's ability to resist diseaseD. man's spirit of invention3.What was given priority by the United States?A. Buying a strip of land.B. Starting the building the canal immediately.C. the prevention of illness.D. the Spanish-American War.4.The author presents details according to ________.A. order of importanceB. spatial (空间的) orderC. simple listingD. time order5.What is the main idea of the passage?A. The elimination of yellow fever.B. The discovery of gold in California.C. The efforts recorded in the building of the Panama Canal.D. The work of American medical heroes.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.At one time a traveler could learn about a region by looking at the houses. For example, he or she could understand what building materials were available. In areas with many wood houses, the traveler would have guessed that there were nearby forests. Stone houses would have indicated that stones were easy to get. However, a closer look at the houses would have told the traveler even more about the area.People used to build houses that fitted the climate of their areas. For example, in desert regions there is a big difference between daytime and nighttime temperatures. Therefore, many desert people built houses with very thick walls. These thick walls served a useful purpose in the houses. For example, in the winter the thick walls absorbed the sun's warmth during the day and radiated theheat at night. Desert people were relatively comfortable in their homes, or residences, at all times because they built them to fit the desert climate.Then the supply of fuel for electricity became both cheap and easy to get. The effect on housing was immediate. People began to build their homes according to fashion instead of utility. Houses no longer reflected the availability of building materials or climate.Houses with steep roofs could be found in the tropics, the warm regions of the Earth, even though these pointed roofs originated in snowy regions of the world. Heavy snow falls off a slanted (歪斜的) roof. Another example is the use of glass. Houses made almost completely of glass could be found in very cold places. Yet ordinary glass does not insulate (绝缘) well because it neither keeps out cold air nor keeps in warm air. As long as fuel was cheap and easy to get, people could build any type of house any place.6.What are two things that a traveler could learn about an areaby looking at the houses?A. The climate is poor and so are the people living in it.B. The climate in the area and the kind of building materialseasy for the people to reach.C. There is a forest nearby and they are on the top of amountain.D. They are near a house and its owner is not there at themoment.7.The main idea of Paragraph 1 is that ________.A. wood is a forest productB. there are no stones in forestsC. houses used to tell about a regionD. people used to travel to learn about houses8.The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that ________.A. thick walls absorb heat from the sunB. people built houses to fit the climateC. people are comfortable in their housesD. in the desert, daytime temperatures are lower thannighttime temperatures9.The main idea of Paragraphs 3 and 4 is that ________.A. heavy snow does not stay on steep roofsB. ordinary glass does not insulate wellC. fuel is used to produce electricityD. the supply of fuel affects home building10.What does "radiate" (Para. 2) mean?A. Give off.B. Absorb.C. Gather.D. Consume.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog. Real policemen, both in Britain and the United States, hardly recognize any resemblance (相似) between their lives and what they see on TV-if they are even able to watch TV.The first difference is that in real life a policeman has been trained in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court.He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty-or not-of stupid, petty (不重要的) crimes.Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as he's arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks-where failure to produce results reflects on the standing of the police-little effort is spent onsearching.A third big difference is between the drama detective and the real life ones. Detectives are subject to two opposing pressures: first, as members of a police force they always have to behave with absolute legality (合法); secondly, as expensive public servants they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.If the detective has to deceive the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And this separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world is deepened by the simplemindedness-as he sees it-of citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and judges, who, instead of stamping out crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform. The result, detectives feel, is that nine-tenths of their time is spent re-catching people who should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical.11.It is essential for a policeman to be trained in criminal law________.A. so that he can catch criminals in the streetsB. because many of the criminals he has to catch aredangerousC. so that he can justify his arrests in courtD. because he has to know nearly as much about law as aprofessional lawyer12.The everyday life of a policeman or detective is ________.A. exciting and mysteriousB. full of dangerC. devoted mostly to routine mattersD. wasted on unimportant matters13.When murders and terrorist attacks occur the police________.A. prefer to wait for the criminal to give himself awayC B CD C B C B DA C C D C Cinvest due to modernize session scratch overcome process imported attracted lease digitalIn contrast lackbelievetoo big a leap expensive oversave missing paceC A C C D返回我的课程。

)1. For any Englishman, there can never be any discussion as to who is the world’s greatest dramatist (剧作家). Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the work of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations.Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, makes full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal use of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand.There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare’s day.1). English people _______.A. have never discussed who is the world’s greatest dramatistB. never discuss any issue concerning the world’s greatest dra matistC. are sure who is the world’s greatest dramatistD. do not care who is the world’s greatest poet and dramatist满分:2 分2).

All the words people use are taken from the writings of Shakespeare.满分:2 分4). What does the word “proverb” mean?A. Familiar sayings.B. Shakespeare’s plays.C. Complaints.D. Actors and actresses.满分:2 分5). Why is it worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English?A. English words have changed a lot since Shakespeare’s time.B.

These are early children, elementary, secondary and higher education. School attendance is required in every state of the country, and in most states students must attend school from the age of 6 to 16.The first level is early childhood education. Its main purpose is to prepare children for school.The second level is elementary education. Education at this level is divided into six or eight grades, and children learn reading, arithmetic, writing, social studies and science. They also have art, music and physical education. The third level is secondary education. It is for junior and senior high school students. Some students take courses to prepare themselves for college. Other students take technical or vocational courses that prepare them for jobs after they graduate from high school.Higher education continues after high school. There are many kinds of institutes of higher education. Technical institutes offer two-year programs in electronics, engineering, business and other subjects. After two years at a junior college, students receive an associate degree and then they can continue at a four-year college.1). Is school attendance required in the USA?A.

But in the business world everyone wears more or less similar suits, and you cannot tell at a glance who ranks higher or lower than another. So how do people in the business world show their superiority?An attempt to study this was made by two researchers using a series of silent films. They had two actors play the parts of an executive (经理) and a visitor, and switch roles each time. The scene had one man at his desk playing the part of an executive, while the other, playing the part of a visitor, knocks at the door, opens it and approaches the desk to discuss some business matter. The audience watching the films was asked to rate the executive and the visitor in terms of status. A certain set of rules about status began to emerge from the ratings. The visitor showed the least amount of status when he stopped just inside the door to talk across the room to the seated man. He was considered to have more status when he walked halfway up to the desk, and he had the most status when he walked directly up to the desk and stood right in front of the seated executive.Another thing that affected the status of the visitor in the eyes of the observers was the time between knocking and entering. For the seated executive, his status was also affected by the time between hearing the knock and answering. The quicker the visitor entered the room, the more status he had. The longer the executive took to answer, the more status he had.1). The experiment designed by the two researchers aimed at finding out ________ .------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A. how business is conducted by an executive and a visitorB. how to tell the differences between an executive and a visitorC. how to tell businessmen at a glanceD. how businessmen indicate status满分:2 分2). Which of the statements can best sum up the passage?A. The executive has a higher status than the visitor.B. Military people wear uniforms but the businessmen do not.C. A study revealing a set of rules about the status of businessmen.D. It is a good method to use a series of silent film in research.满分:2 分3). Having entered the room, the closer the visitor approaches the executive, _________ .A. the less it affected his statusB. the lower his statusC. the more it affected his statusD. the higher his status满分:2 分4). The longer the seated man was in answering the knock, _________ .A. the higher his statusB. the less it affected his statusC. the lower his statusD. the more it affected his status满分:2 分5). Which statement is NOT true?A. Soldiers wear uniforms with various symbols so that one can tell their status at a glance.B. In the experiment, one actor played the executive while the other played the seated man.C. Business people wear similar suits.D. The audience watching the film rated the executive and the visitor in terms of status.满分:2 分4. Believe it or not, optical illusion (错觉)can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. Bent stripes, called chevrons (人字形), painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japan’s success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes. Excessive speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards are the greatest---curves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges.Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.1). The passage mainly discusses __________.A. a new way of highway speed controlB. a new pattern for painting highwaysC. a new approach to training driversD. a new type of optical illusion满分:2 分2). On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that __________.A. they should avoid speed-related hazardsB. they are driving in the wrong laneC. they should slow down their speedD. they are approaching the speed limit满分:2 分3). The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former ___________.A. can keep drivers awakeB. can cut road accidents in halfC. will have a longer effect on driversD. will look more attractive满分:2 分4). The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety Plans to __________.A. try out the Japanese method in certain areasB. change the road signs across the countryC. replace straight, horizontal bars with chevronsD. repeat the Japanese road patterns满分:2 分5). What does the author say about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads?A. They are falling out of use in the United StatesB. They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.C. They are applicable only on broad roads.D. They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circles.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 满分:2 分请同学及时保存作业,如您在20分钟内不作操作,系统将自动退出。
