Any one of these misfortunes would have left me begging for relief, but Chance became calmer as the disabilities piled up.When leg pain left him frozen on the floor, unable to rise for a quick pat as I came home, he didn’t complain. He just lay there patiently, signaling me with his hammering tail, each movement spelling out the value of waiting for the things you want. When his cataracts made steering impossible after dark, he’d stand calmly until I could guide him inside, proving how easy it is to find happiness if you let go of your pride and insecurities and learn to lean on those who love you. When ministrokes had him walk unsteadily like a drunk, he taught the value of persistence. For days after each attack, he’d fall as he moved about. Yet again and again he’d try to walk, each day moving a few more steps until finally he was able to get outside and back by himself.There were lessons in so much of what he did, but the key one surely was the importance of obtaining all the joy possible from each experience whether it’s a day lazing under a warm sun or a few minutes appreciating a favorite meal.For most of our life together, Chance was always rushing ahead, searching out new adventures, then circling back to let me know what lay around the next bend. As an old dog, he did the same thing, using his attitude, instead of his once-fast legs, to show the way.66. Chance suffered very much from all the diseases he had except for ______.A. having problem with breathB. walking around awkwardlyC. having trouble drinkingD. losing his eyesight in darkness67. ______ is the most important lesson the author learned from Chance.A.

During its course, French revolutionaries brought down the empire and established a republic of free and equal citizens.In reading the work, one sees that Dickens distorted some details of the French Revolution. At the beginning, Dickens notes that, in 1775, France was busy spending money. This mention of France’s spending touches briefly on what is perhaps the major cause of the French Revolution. Before the revolution, the government often borrowed money because it spent more than it raised in taxes. The increased spending and borrowing made many people’s blood boil, yet Dickens focused instead on the nobility’s oppression and exploitation of t he working class, including peasants, as the causes of the revolution.The Marquis, one of the book’s characters, ill-treats and kills many people. Thus, he represents the nobles who mistreat the lower classes. One reviewer criticized this picture as an unfair representation of French society in the mid-1700s. The reviewer pointed out that the government would have punished nobles who mistreated or murdered. Nobles may have been guilty of other evils, however, such as not feeding the starving masses after bad weather ruined crops in 1789.Dickens’ account of the storming of the Bastille fails to mention that the gang that stormed the prison was looking forbullets and bombs to use in defense against a possible attack by the kin g’s troops. Dickens does inclu de some accurate details, however, such as the crowd’s finding only seven prisoners and freeing them and the pack’s executing (处决) the prison administrator and sticking his head on a post. The scene that the women knit (编织) as they watch the executions may seem to be an odd detail, but actually many women did knit stockings for the war effort as they watched the killing machine at work.Dickens’ descriptions of the steady stream of sentenced people into prison and the carts taking them to their deaths give readers some idea of the frequency with which officials jailed and executed people during the Rule of T error, which lasted about a year. During the Terror, the government jailed about 250 thousand people, tried(审判) and killed about 17 thousand, and executed about 12thousand without a trial. Those executed included people who opposed the revolution, people who offended the revolutionaries, and even some revolutionaries. About 15 percent were members of the ministry or nobility.74. What does the word “distorted” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?A. Discussed.B. Revealed.C. Provided.D. Twisted.75. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. A wild crowd rushed into the Bastille to fight with the royal soldiers.B. The nobles’ m istreating and killing people is the maincause of the revolution.C. About thirty thousand people lost their lives in the course of the Rule of Terror.D. Women were forced to work for the war supplies while watching people killed.76. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Dickens was once among the revolutionaries storming the Bastille.B. There was an extreme disorder and horror during the revolution.C. Nobles of those days in France were loaded with heavy social responsibilities.D. Classic literary works may serve as history textbooks to a great degree.77. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. The Collapse of the French EmpireB. Unknown Facts during the Rule of TerrorC. Dickens’ Description of the French Revolu tionD. A Critical View on A Tale of Two CitiesSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.For decades, a small percentage of homeowners have been installing solar panels(嵌板) on their rooftops. Those panels collect solar energy and change it into electricity. Until recently, the panels were too expensive for average homeowners, and their designs were anything but appealing. Thanks to new advances, however, solar panels for homes are becoming cheaperand less awkward, causing more homeowners to consider installing them.Last fall furniture seller IKEA began selling solar panels in its U.K. stores. Of course, home improvement stores such as Home Depot have been selling panels for a while. But the initiative by IKEA is seen as a way to bring the Do It Yourself solar option to the masses. While shopping for inexpensive furniture, shoppers could add a box or two of solar panels to their carts. IKEA is partnering with a company that handles installation and servicing of the panels, making the switch to solar easy for customers. If all goes well, IKEA plans to begin selling the panels in other countries soon.SolTech, a Swedish tech company, offers a solar-power solution that is much more pleasing to the eye than traditional solar panels. Instead of flat panels, SolTech offers a glass tile (瓦片) solutionthat goes well with existing tiled roof designs. The see-through tiles have a silver-gray color to them, and their shape fits traditional tiled roof designs. SolTech currently offers the solar systems that heat the home’s air or water and one solar PV system that produces electricity.New Energy Technologies, Inc. is developing a solar application that won’t be installed on rooftop s. Instead, the first-of-its-kind SolarWindow TM technology enables see-through windows to produce electricity in the way of showering their glass surfaces with the company’s patent-pending (专利申请中的) electricity-producing coatings. Amazingly, SolarWindow TM can produce electricity in low-light conditions and can even turn indoor light into electricity! This product holds great promise for commercial buildings since about 60 percent of acommercial building’s surface is covered with windows.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)78. Solar panels on homeowners’ rooftops work by __________.79. What is IKEA doing to popularize their DIY solar option?80. SolTech’s solar panels are prettier because the see-through glass tiles are __________.81. How is SolarWindow TM technology used to produce electricity?第II卷（共47分）I.

Many people were dying to know the secrets to his fantastic achievements. To unveil the mystery, a newspaper reporter interviewed him asking why he was able to be so much more creative than the average person. What set him so far apart from others?Having assumed to hear wordings like innate curiosity for science or hard work, the reporter was surprised to have him respond that, in his opinion, it all came from an experience with his mother that occurred when he was about four years old. He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his grip on the slippery bottle and it fell, spilling its contents all over the kitchen floor - a real sea of milk!When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of shouting at him, giving him a lecture or chastising him, she said, "Steve, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely seen such a huge pond of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?"Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, "Y ou know, Steve, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge, a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?" He chose the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.His mother then said, "Y ou know, what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Let's go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover a way to carry it without dropping it." The little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. What a wonderful lesson!This renowned scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be afraid to make mistakes. Instead, he learned that mistakes were just opportunities for learning something new, which is, after all, what scientific experiments are all about. Even if the experiment …doesn't work,‟ we usually learn something valuable from it.Wouldn't it be great if all parents would respond the way Steve's mother responded to him?66. According to the passage, a newspaper interviewed Stephen Glenn in order to ______.A. persuade him to treat some dying patientsB. find out his differences with ordinary peopleC. hear about his opinions about medical scienceD. know about why he was so successful67. According to the passage, the underlined word …chastise‟ is closest in meaning to ______.A. pursuingB. punishingC. praisingD. educating68. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Steve spilled the milk bottle to make a milk sea on purpose.B. Steve‟s mother allowed him to play some time with the spilled milk.C. Steve‟s mother let him choose the tool himself to clean up the milkD. Steve‟s mother led him to try out ways to tightly hold the milk bottle.69. What ordinary mothers can learn from Steve‟s mother is that ______.A. never put milk bottle where little kids can get hold ofB. appreciation of kids‟ behaviours is important to their growthC. mothers should teach kids to learn from their own mistakesD. kids should learn to become scientists from childhood.(B)Our website is presenting to you the world’s leading museums and gallaries:Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.The Smithsonian is one of the world‟s leading research and museum complexes, with 19 museums and galleries, the National Zoological Park, and various research stations. More than 137 million objects detailing America‟s history are exhibited here. There‟s so much to see that, if you spent every day and night looking at the exhibits at normal pace, in ten years you‟d see only ten percent of the whole. Therefore, it‟s wise to head out with a plan. Focus on some famous exhibits at two or three different museums.Le Louvre, Paris, FranceThe Louvre was a medieval fortress and the palace of the kings of France before becoming a museum two centuries ago. The addition of the Chinese architect I. M. Pei‟s stylish glass pyramid (金字塔) shocked many when it was opened to public in 1989 as the new main entrance, yet it somehow works and has won compliment in the country, combining the palace‟s various elements to make the museum stand out as the most shinning diamond on the French artistic crown. The museum‟s collections, though failing to excel in numbers, are among the most important in the world.The Acropolis Museum, Athens, GreeceThe amazing groundfloor gallery houses were found from the slopes of the Acropolis (卫城). Its amazing see-through glass floor provides a walk over history, with a view of the archaeological (考古的) digging. Smaller settlements have been dug out, providing glimpses of Athenian life. Despite its lack of variety in exhibits and limited collections, the Acropolis attracts audience by, for the first time, allowing visitors to take in the stone exhibits, which are displayed in open air characterized by changing natural light.State Hermitage, St. Petersburg, RussiaRussia may be isolated from the artistic centers of the US or West Europe, but the Hermitage has managed to acquire a spectacular collection of world art—three million items in numbers. The museum occupies six buildings along the Neva River, the leading structure being the candy-like Winter Palace. This gloriously blue-and-white structure was finished in 1764 and over the next several centuries was the main residence of the czars (沙皇). The museum‟s leading attraction is Western European art—in 120 rooms in four buildings ranging from the Middle Ages to the present day.70. Compared with the other three, which of the following is not geographically distinguished in art history?A. Smithsonian Institution.B. Le Louvre.C. The Acropolis Museum.D. State Hermitage.71. Which of the following enjoys the largest number of exhibit collections?A. Smithsonian Institution.B. Le Louvre.C. The Acropolis Museum.D. State Hermitage.72. The new Le Louvre entrance was recognized by French people because ______.A. it was designed by a famous foreign architectB. it was constructed in a very fashionable styleC. it demonstrates the joint effect of different factorsD. it exhibits the diamond on the crown of a French king73. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. If you plan well, you can view most exhibits of Smithsonian Institution during one visit.B. The Winter Palace used to serve as the home for Russian kings.C. For preservation, the Acropolis Museum exhibits are not allowed to be exposed to sunlight.D. The Russian domestic art works are the most attractive collections in State Hermitage.(C)The city of Los Angeles is finally getting serious about retrofitting (翻修) the soft wood frame apartment buildings and the weak concrete ones that are at risk of collapsing during a substantial earthquake. A concrete building without adequate steel reinforcement can crumble to the ground, as some did in the 1971 Sylmar earthquake, killing dozens.The first step is to take a list of the 29,000 apartment buildings that were built before 1978, when the building code was changed to require stronger wood frame and concrete buildings. The second step will be the analysis of those buildings by structural experts to see if they should be retrofitted, which needs essential professionalism. Then comes the stage to decide who pays for the work that needs to be done, Landlords? Renters? Taxpayers? The step posed the biggest obstacle to all parties involved.Actually Under L.A.'s rent control law, property owners can pass on 100% of the cost of …essential‟retrofitting work to renters. Some favor this pass-through move, arguing that many mom-and-pop landlords of small buildings are as cash-strapped as one can imagine, if not more so.However, the reality is that, like many landlords, the insolvency of most renters will finally make the retrofitting an empty talk. Besides, the cost of retrofitting should not fall on any one group as this work is done to prevent people from being killed in earthquakes. Protecting buildings serves the interests of renters, property owners and the city as a whole, which qualifies it as a matter of public safety issue so that L.A. government needs to find ways to shoulder some burden of the cost.It has been decided by the city government that the government will get involved, trying to find ways to reduce costs for landlords for the retrofitting projects, and the government is establishing a law to create a tax reduction for retrofitting for landlords. It's not clear at this point how much tax the state could afford to give up, or how much tax cut owners can get. Some even say that the actual financial assistance landlords can get is far less than is expected. However, what it‟s known definitely now is that Los Angeles must not allow retrofitting to be put off although the money issue poses a big problem. The bottom line is the human life rather than money.74. According to the passage, which issue is the most essential in deciding the future of the city‟s retrofitting project?A. Having all the parties involved aware of the importance of retrofitting.B. Making a list of all the buildings that were built before a certain date.C. Deciding professionally on whether the listed buildings need retrofitting.D. Working out adequate ways to provide financial support for retrofitting.75. According to the passage, the underlined word insolvency is closest in meaning to ______.A. not having enough money to pay debtsB. poor relationship with landlordsC. unwillingness to participateD. unfair treatment received76. Which of the following is implied about the retrofitting project?A. Most L.A. apartments are of Soft wood frame or of weak concrete.B. According to L.A. rent law, landlords and renters share the cost for retrofit work.C. According to government decision, owners will mainly be responsible for the retrofit.D. Government will pay mainly for the retrofitting work as it relates with people‟s life.77. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The likelihood of weak apartment falling in big earthquakes.B. The background of LA apartment retrofit and its financial solution.C. The argument between landlords, renters and governments over money issues.D. The importance of LA government‟s involvement in life-saving projects.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.In North America, the Colorado (科罗拉多) River is a legend. It has sustained generations of people and many generations of wildlife. Once free, the Colorado now has many dams along its 1,450 miles. Its life-giving water is divided up among seven U.S. states according to several agreements, which has caused the heaviest hit on the eco-balance of the river as no region would lose advantages compared with neighbours in the use of the river, thus inappropriate use was well expected.The Colorado once supported a vast delta(三角洲) where it met the Gulf of California. Today the lush plantations are just memories, displaced by invasive species capable of surviving in soils poisoned by salt. The drying of the delta has huge effect on the local people. As many as 5,000 people were living in the delta 400 years ago. Today, about 300 remain. There is a delta culture at risk of extinction, partly owing to outside job opportunities and marital mobility.However, the worsening living environment caused partly by horrible grab of the waters of the Colorado River has beaten all the other reasons.It‟s easy to blame farmers along the Colorado for drawing waters from its channel to water their crops or quench the thirst of their cows. They are immediate consumers of water from the Colorado, but the truth is that we, ordinary American consumers, are all at least partially responsible. Many of us have bought products that come from the region, whether in the form of paper, hamburgers, or electronics. We live in an increasingly connected world, in which we take up “virtual water” in the form of products and even services. In the U.S., we use twice as much water per person as the global average.Though it may seem to work in the short term, we can barely fix the Colorado by piping water from another place. But change is urgent. Use a water calculator to see how much water you use every day. Pay special attention to saving every drop of water hidden in your diet and wardrobe. And keep away from life styles that might waste water. In all, try to form a water-efficient habit.Besides, technology improvement will also be explored to make change happen in the rescue efforts. These technologies include methods to increase farming efficiency, and ways to replace invasive, water-sucking plants with native species.Anyway, it‟s time we humans rose up and repaid the mother river that has long been nurturing us.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)78. What is the biggest factor to damage the Colorado nature?79. The major reason of the Delta culture disappearance is _____.80. Who are the two groups of people to blame for Colorado water shortage?81.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.(A)Good ideas often start with really silly questions. Bill Bowerman was making breakfast one day. As he stood there making waffles (华夫饼干) for his son, he wondered what would happen if he poured rubber (25)____ his waffle iron. Later, he tried it and the result looked something like the bottom of most sports shoes we see today. Still, when he took this idea to several existing shoe companies, he was laughed at. In fact, every single company turned him down. Though rather discouraged, Bowerman persevered and went on (26)____ (form) his own company, makingNIKE athletic shoes.Sometimes good ideas grow out of frustration. When Fred Smith was a student at Yale University, he needed to have some paperwork (27)____(deliver) across the country the next day. Smith was amazed to find out that overnight delivery was impossible. He sat for a long while (28)____ (wonder) why. Why couldn‟t there be a reliable overnight mail delivery service? He decided to design one. Smith did just that and turned his design into (29)____ class project. His business professor gave him only a C for his efforts. However, Smith was not through. He improved the ideas in that class project and eventually turned (30)____ into one of the first and (31)____ (successful) overnight mail services in the world—FedEx.We know today, of course, that each of these ideas led to an incredibly successful product or service (32)____ has changed the way many of us live. The best questions are usually open-ended and are often silly. Ch ildren aren‟t afraid to ask such questions, but adults frequently are. Think how different the world might be (33)____ people never asked “silly” question!(B)A lot of people in the world today are used to working, going on holiday, and having money—but many of them aren’t happy. Yet other people seem to be really happy,(34)____ ____ they are poor, or have no job, or are surrounded by problems. Why?Professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, from the University of Chicago, has interviewed thousands of people wh o have a happy life to find out how they do it. “I (35)____ (study) happiness for over 30 years,” says Csikszentmihalyi. “My interest in the subject came from my own experience as a child during World War II, when I saw many adults destroyed by the terrible events. But there were always a few who kept their courage, helped others, and were able to give a sense of purpose and meaning to their lives. I wanted to find out how a person (36)____ build a fulfilling and enjoyable life.”In general, his research showed that people were unhappy doing nothing. The professor stresses that happy people don’t waste time, either at work or when they’re free. “Many people feel the time that they spend at work or at school wasted. But often their free time (37)____ (waste) as well. Many people are used to doing passive things—watching television, for example—without (38)____ (use) any skills. As a result, life goes past in a series of boring experiences.”But it doesn’t have to be this way. The professor has found that people are happy when they get into (39)____ he calls “flow”. When people get very involved in a task that they have chosen, and which is well-defined and challenging, they experience “flow”, a situation (40)____ they don‟t notice time passing.People who are not used to happiness can learn how to be happy, says the professor, if they constantly get into “flow”states. Is happiness as easy as that? Perhaps it is.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A. caseB. experienceC. growingD. dominantE. exclusionF. varietyG. decliningH. remainI. problematicJ. contributionK. shareThe world faces a future of people speaking more than one language, with English no longer seen as likely to become __41__, a British language expert says in a new analysis. “English is likely to __42__ one of the world‟s most important languages for the foreseeable future, but its future is more __43__ and complex—than most people appreciate,” language researcher David Graddol said. He sees English as likely to become the “first among equals” rather than having the global field to itself. “Speakers, who only use English, of any __44__ of English—American or British—will __45__ increasing difficulty in employment and political life, and are likely to become confused by many aspects of the society and culture around them,” Graddol said.The __46__ of the world‟s population that speaks English as a nati ve language is decreasing, Graddol reported in an issue of the journal Science. The idea of English becoming the world language to the __47__ of others “is past its sell-by date,” Graddol said. Instead, he said, its major __48__ will be in creating generations who use more than one language.A multilingual(使用多种语言的) population is the __49__ in much of the world and is becoming more common in the United States. Indeed, the Census Bureau reported last year that nearly one American in five speaks a language other than English at home, with Spanish leading, and Chinese __50__ rapidly. The diversity of language, in turn, has helped to make English the nation‟s official language.III. Reading ComprehensionSection A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.GM (转基因)crops are debatable. On one hand, some farmers and scientists feel that GM crops can make the world a __51__ place. If bioengineers can create crops that are resistant to insects, __52__, then they won‟t have to worry about insects destroying plants. In the __53__ of insect damage, crops can grow to feed the poor and hungry. Genetic engineering can create plants with other desirable properties as well. Plants that don‟t require much water, that can live even in times of drought, can help prevent the widespread __54__ that would occur if people have nothing to eat. It‟s easy to see why many people believe that GM crops will help the world meet the difficult __55__ that it will face as more and more people need to be fed.But not everyone thinks bioengineering is a good idea. Other people are __56__. They mistrust the claims made and don‟t believe that biotechnology is without __57__. The possible dangers include harming the ecosystem—the inter-related community of plants and animals and bacteria that __58__ the Earth. They __59__ that changing plants can harm our environment, anddamage to our surroundings can hurt us. One danger is that GM crops can transfer their characteristics to other plants. Plants that reproduce by spreading their pollen (花粉) in the wind can possibly fertilize wild plants, making them more __60__ to control. Another problem is that GM plants might be a source of allergens(过敏源). This seems __61__, but in the process of making GM foods, genes are transferred that are known to cause problems for some people. Allergic reactions can __62__ from coughing and sneezing to death.Indeed, people hold very different opinions about __63__. While some people look forward to crops that will not rot during the trip to market, others claim that we will ruin our cropland and destroy what we are trying to save. While some people look forward to crops that can __64__ droughts, others claim that contact with GM plants can pollute other crops, making them __65__ for use. For some people, GM crops are the hope of the future; for others, they are a poison that will harm or destroy our farmland.51. A. worse B. better C. less healthy D. more peaceful52.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)You carry a 1.3 kg mass of fatty material in your head that controls everything you will ever do. This fantastic control center lets you think, learn, create, and feel emotions. It also controls everything your body does. What is this amazing machine? It‟s your brain—a structure so amazing that the famous scientist James Watson called it “the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe.”Imagine your kitten jumped onto the kitchen counter, and was about to step onto a hot stove. You would have only seconds to act. In situations like this, your brain reads the signals from youreyes and quickly calculates when, where and at what speed you need to run to save her. Then it tells your muscles to move. No computer can match your brain’s great ability to download, process, and react to the flood of information from your eyes, ears and other sensory organs.If a bee lands on your foot, sensory neurons(神经元) in your skin send this information to your brain at a speed of more than 240 kilometers per hour. Your brain then uses motor neurons to send a message back to your foot: Shake the bee off quickly! Motor neurons can send this information at more than 320 kilometers per hour!Your brain contains about 100 billion tiny cells: neurons—it would take you more than 3,000 years if you tried to count them all. Whenever you dream, laugh, think, see or move, tiny chemical and electrical signals are racing between these neurons along billions of tiny neuron pathways. Believe it or not, the activity in your brain never stops. Countless messages fly around inside it every second, like a super-fast game of table tennis. Your neurons create and send more messages than all the phones in the entire world. And although a single neuron generates only a tiny amount of electricity, all your neurons together can generate enough electricity to power a light bulb.66. By “the most complex thing”, James Watson means ______.A. a supercomputerB. the universeC. human brainsD. our emotions67. Which of the following statements is true according to the 2nd and 3rd paragraph?A. Brains can download more information than any computer.B. The kitten plays an important role in testing human brain power.C. Motor neurons in human brains serve to send countless messages.D. Your brains can use neuron s to send messages back faster than bees‟.68. The author mentions “to power light bulbs” (Para. 4) to show ______.A. neurons can send lots of messagesB. how many active tiny cells brains containC. how much electricity brains can generateD. there is countless information in the brain69. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Powerful brain is a wonderful machine.B. Brains work well in controlling body movements.C. Brain is the most complex structure in the universe.D. Human brains are composed of numerous neurons.(B)Read the following car rental agreement of Avis and answer the questions.Kindly indicate your return km reading, fuel gauge(计量器) reading, date and time, and return this envelope, with your keys, to the rental counter.Safe Driving in South AfricaDRIVER’S LICENCEWhen driving, you must be in possession of your driver’s licence at all times.SEAT BELTSThe law requires that you wear seat belts at all times.DRIVINGIn South Africa, driving is on the left-hand side of the road.SPEED LIMITSGenerally 60 km/hr in built-up areas, 100 km/hr in rural areas and 120 km/hr on highways.

The instructions to fix flat tyres on the road.(C)Today’s workplace is unique in history. Never before have we seen people working together who represent such different backgrounds and experiences. This difference of age, race, gender, and work style makes it very difficult to organize and run a company.As a result, companies are looking for individuals who can manage a wide range of employees effectively. Increasingly, managers are discovering that age differences among workers are a major cause of concern.This has been an important realization. The management difficulties and challenges have led some experts to study intergenerational differences for an understanding of problems in the workplace. What they have discovered is interesting and may provide ways of improving working conditions in companies that employ individuals from different generations.The first thing to realize, they say, is that differences of opinion about the importance of work and how to get work done are not a coincidence. That is, it is not an accident that young employees will be different from older employees. In fact, if employers do not pay attention to these differences, it is possible that anger will build up between people and lead to difficulties in the company.Resentment (仇恨) between members of different generations, if not attended to, can lead to extreme anger and unhappiness and even lasting enmity if people are not careful. That individuals from different generations should come to view each other as if they were from different sides of warring countries should not be surprising.It is natural for individuals from the same generation to form alliances(联盟), to come together for protection. Different generations represent different experiences in life, and these lead naturally to different opinions about oneself and one’s approaches to work.If you were raised in a time of plenty, when products were readily available and relatively inexpensive, you would believe that prosperity is natural and expectable. If, on the other hand, you were raised in a time of scarcity, you would always be careful not to waste things for fear you would not have enough. You would make angry people who seem to believe that problems will always solve themselves. Such optimism in the face of difficulties would be a source of unhappiness between you and them. It is difficult, in such circumstances, to achieve a happy, agreeable atmosphere in the workplace.73. What most possibly makes it difficult to organize or run a company?A. Employees are in different generations.B. Employees are of different backgrounds.C. Employees work in different styles.D. Employees are in different races.74. Employers should pay attention to ______ if they want to avoid anger between employees.A. the different understanding of problems in the workplaceB. the different views on value of work and working methodsC. the different generations of employees in the workplaceD. the different ways of expressing anger in the company75. The word “enmity” is closet in meaning to ______.A. hatredB. sorrowsC. ignoranceD. forgiveness76. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Employees in some companies regard each other as mere enemies.B. Employees‟ attitudes towards life are related to the time when they grow up.C. Employees who are raised in a time of scarcity tend to be angry with others.D. Achieving a harmonious atmosphere in the workplace is the main task for employers.77. What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage?A. Employees should be cooperative and friendly with each other.B. It is difficult for employers to have workers work in a friendly way.C. The weakness of human nature causes the anger between employees.D. The generational differences cause the disharmony among employees.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Dolphins have been declared the world’s second most intelligent creatures after humans, with scientists suggesting they are so bright that they should be treated as “non-human persons”.Studies into dolphin behavior have highlighted how similar their communications are to those of humans and that they are brighter than chimpanzees. These have been backed up by anatomical (解剖学) research showing that dolphin brains have many key features associated with highintelligence. Recently, a series of behavioral studies has suggested that dolphins, especially species such as the bottlenose, whose brains weigh about 5lb, could even be brighter than chimps, which some studies have found can reach the intelligence levels of three-year-old children. The studies show how dolphins have distinct personalities, a strong sense of self and can think about the future.It has also become clear that dolphins are “culture”animals, meaning that new types of behavior can quickly be picked up by one dolphin from another. In one study, Diana Reiss, professor of psychology at Hunter College, City University of New York, showed that bottlenose dolphins could recognize themselves in a mirror and use it to inspect various parts of their bodies, an ability that had been thought limited to humans and great apes. In another, she found that they also had the ability to learn an elementary symbol-based language.Other research has shown dolphins can solve difficult problems, while those living in the wild cooperate in ways that imply complex social structures and a high level of emotions. In one recent case, a dolphin rescued from the wild was taught to tail-walk for three weeks in a dolphinarium (海豚宫) in Australia. After she was released, scientists were astonished to see the trick spreading among wild dolphins who had learnt it from the former captive(被俘的). Such observations have prompted questions about the brain structures of dolphins.Researchers have found that brain size varies hugely from around 7oz for the small species to more than 19lb for the sperm whales, whose brains are the largest on the planet. Human brains, by contrast, range from 21lb-4lb. When it comes to intelligence, however, brain size is less important than its size relative to the body.oz: an ounce in weight (1oz=28g)lb: a pound in weight (1lb=454g=16oz)(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in no more than twelve words.)78. The which in the 2nd paragraph refers to _________.79. What do bottlenose dolphins do to make Diana Reiss believe they are “culture” animals?80. The spreading of tail-walk shows wild dolphins have _________.81. What is the main factor that decides the level of intelligence according to the last paragraph?第II卷（共47分）I.
