that he hears.There are 11 of reasons for this.One of them is the overload of messages most of us 12 each day.In addition to the numerous hours we 13 hearing other people speak, we may spend several hours listening to the radio or sitting in front of a television set.14, it is impossible to focus our attention completely on what is said;our mind might be 15 elsewhere.Preoccupation with our personal concerns is 16 reason we don’t always listen carefully.A romance 17 sour or a good grade on a test may take prominence in our mind even as 18 is speaking to us.Furthermore, we are surrounded by all kinds of noises which interfere 19 listening.For example, voices at a party or 20 of traffic may simply make it difficult for us to catch everything that is being said.11.A.the numberB.a numberC.numberD.numbers 12.A.acceptB.obtainC.receiveD.possess 13.A.putB.consumeC.spendD.spare 14.A.BesidesB.WhereasC.OtherwiseD.Nevertheless 15.A.wonderingB.swingingC.recyclingD.wandering 16.A.otherB.someC.the otherD.another 17.A.goneB.goingC.goesD.went 18.A.anyoneB.everyoneC.someoneD.few 19.A.toB.withC.ofD.about 20.A.soundB.noiseC.voiceD.scream III.Reading Comprehension(30 points, 2 points each)Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Many of today’s most trusted sales techniq ues were invented over a century ago by a young merchant named Eaton in Toronto.When he was young, Eaton worked briefly with his brothers in small-town stores.In 1869, he set up his own shop in downtown Toronto.He had many competitors, but he was also ambitious and had a plan for success.He offered a unique style of trade, but as was expected, all the other shopkeepers laughed at him, believing he would eventually fail.However, Eaton was not a man to be easily defeated;he came up with a brand new notion of business –―Goods satisfactory, or money refunded.‖ He sold all his goods at fixed prices and only for cash.With a sharp sense of what the public wanted, he went out of the way to meet their needs.His business grew rapidly.He set up new branches and started mail order service that allowed people to buy from a list of his goods.Eaton’s list—advertisements of his day—was the first of its kind.It was distributed and read all over the country.It was the only way to access good-quality goods at reasonable prices for people living far away from big cites.It became part of their life.They even called it The Wishing Book.The secret of thelist’s success was that Eaton gained the respect of his customers;they trusted him for good prices and quality goods.Probably because he remembered his miserable early days in Ireland, Eaton thought much of the welfare of his employees: better working conditions, shorter weekday hours than his competitors and Saturday afternoons off in the summer.In all this, he was a leader.21.The best description of Eaton is that ______.A.he was the richest merchant in Toronto B.he was a successful technical inventor C.he introduced new sales practicesD.he changed people’s ideas about businessmen22.Eaton’s success lay primarily in that ____.A.he sold only good quality goods B.he was the first person to provide good serviceC.he treated his employees better than any of his competitorsD.he won respect from his customers 23.From the passage we can infer that ______.A.Eaton invented the idea of the internet shopping B.Eaton drove other businessmen to failure C.Eaton never sold his goods on creditD.Eaton was defeated by his rivals 24.The best title for this passage is _____.A.Good Goods, of Money RefundedB.Eaton, a Sales InventorC.Customers’ Respect, a Secret of SuccessD.Eaton’s list, a Welcome Event in Sales History 25.Eaton’s List was important to people on farms because it was a convenient way of getting _____.A.good-quality goods at reasonable prices B.goods at unreasonable prices C.good-quality goods at unreasonable prices D.poor-quality goods at reasonable prices Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.The threat of a global outbreak(疾病大爆发)of bird flu makes it urgent for the international community to cooperate effectively.Wealthy countries will have to providehundreds of millions of dollars for the testing and production of medicines necessary for treating patients suffering from bird flu.Developing countries, particularly in Southeast Asia, where the bird flu virus(病毒)has spread since 1997, must work out special programs so that farmers will not hide sighs of possible outbreaks.In addition, the way such farm birds as chickens and ducks are traditionally raised and marketed in the developing world should be changed;there should be more distance between the birds and their keepers.Countries should deal with the disease with joint effort.If one country is inadequately prepared, it will be a threat to every other country.The potential effects of a national outbreak of bird flu are enormous.Firstly, an outbreak may kill large numbers of people.World Health Organization(WHO)estimates that an outbreak similar to the mild Hong Kong flu of 1968 could kill as many as 7.4 millions people.If it were as dangerous as the 1918 Spanish flu, which killed 50 million, the number would be much higher.Secondly, such an outbreak may cause great financial damage.The latest outbreak of bird flu, which began in December 2003, has cost Southeast Asia more than $10 billion and depressed its GDP by 1.5 percent.If a new outbreak of bird flu were to last for a whole year, $800 billion would be lost.Despite the 124 human cases and 63 deaths from bird flu since December 2003, the virus remains mainly a disease animals.However, the more animals that die of the disease, the more chances it has of spreading to rge numbers of dead or dying birds mean that more people will be exposed to the virus and change into a virus with new characteristics.If the international community works together efficiently, man can surely prevent such a virus and possibly save millions of lives.26.Faced with the threat of a global outbreak ofbird flu, the international community should ________.A.establish new marketsB.work together effectivelyC.stop birds from flying to other countriesD.raise fewer chickens and ducks 27.The second paragraph focuses on ______.A.World Health OrganizationB.flus in Hong Kong and SpainC.the economy of Southeast AsiaD.possible effects of a bird flu outbreak 28.The number of people who have died of bird flu since 2003 is _______.A.63B.124C.7.4 millionD.50 million 29.In the third paragraph, the author is mainly interested in _____.A.stimulating financial growthB.reducing economic damagesC.saving human livesD.protecting bird species 30.The passage deals with all the following aspects bird flu EXCEPT _______.A.the origin and history of bird fluB.the importance of international cooperationC.the possible dangers of a national outbreakD.the significance of preventing it from spreading Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The long summer holidays are finally over and some parents are pleased.―We worry more about their safety in the holidays,‖ explains one mother from North London.If teenagers are not wandering around on public transport in a big and potentially dangerous city, they are chatting to strangers in an internet chat room!Well, that’s an extreme picture of the UK today, but many parents are worried about how much freedom they can give their children during the holidays and at weekends.Weekends are not the only time to worry!Newspaper are full of stories about too many school kids going to school bycar because their parents do not want them to travel alone on a bus or train.This summer there were more frightening stories of teenagers disappearing with questionable friends that they met on the net.All the Media stories help increase parents fears, but is the UK really so dangerous?Many young people feel that life for their parents was easier.In the 1960s young people played in the streets more and traveled around town without their parents.―At least our parents can keep tabs on us,‖ says 16-year-old Julia.―So many people have mobile phones now and their parents ring to find out where they are.I use my mobile to get Dad to come to the station when I arrive late.‖ Mobiles are not just expensive toys;they help keep young people safe.Most significantly, they help keep young people safe.Most significantly, they make parents feel better.Only one problem is, though, that some young people have been attacked by thieves who want to steal their mobile phones.Young people like going out with friends, but they now need to learn how to get home safely.Five million young people in the UK between the ages of 9 to 16 use chat rooms to make friends, but they, too, need to be careful and never give their personal details to a stranger.Young people today have more opportunities to meet new people and go out at night more than their parents ever did.Now school, television programs and newspapers must help teenagers to enjoy their freedom and to be responsible for their own safety.31.Some parents are upset about the summer holidays mainly because their children ______.A.wander around on bus in the cityB.chat to strangers in Internet chat roomsC.make questionable friends on the netD.are taken little care of by teachers 32.For the sake of thesafety, many parents send their kids to school ________.A.by carB.by busC.by trainD.by public transport 33.Most significantly, mobile phones _______.A.enable parents keep a close watch on their kids B.help keep teenagers safe C.make parents feel less worriedD.protect teenagers from being attacked 34.Teenagers should never give any strangers ______.A.their mobile phone numbersB.their family addressC.their personal informationD.their parents’ names 35.This passage is mainly about ________.A.freedom for teenagers in summer holidays B.safety for teenagers in summer holidays C.activities for teenagers in summer holidays D.troubles for teenagers in summer holidays PART TWO(50 POINTS)IV.Word Spelling(10 points, 1 point for two items)将下列汉语单词译成英语。

This was stated by a news report broadcast recently.“When it comes to the American family, public attention tends to __31__ far more on what’s wrong than what’s right,” according to Dr. Kristin Anderson Moors and colleagues at the not-for-profit child support group Child Trends.They found strong evidence that __32__ families --- including those living in difficult situations --- have unique strengths that enable them to do a good job of raising their __33__ and supporting one another.In addition to TV shows, films, magazines and books delight in tales of battling brother and sisters, arguments between husbands and wives, __34__ childhoods and other problems. But do these represent the __35__ American family?In their study, Moore and her colleagues compared information from two government studies, which were based on interviews with more than 45,000 people __36__ age 18.Most families have a strong sense of __37__.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should choose the best answer to each question based on the passage. Passage OneIf you ask technical companies what particular software or networking skills they’re looking for, you will not learn anything new.But ask what kinds of people tech companies are trying hardest to hire, and the answers become more complicated. Asked to state their No. 1 need, two-thirds of the 79 companies responding listed technical skills first, let by Web and database programming skills.But one-third included non-technical talents, either general business skills or personal qualities. For example Joe Samson of ITNet said, “We try to go after people who will work hard to develop successful products and then introduce and maintain them.”Other employers in the survey also looked beyond programming or network-building skills. For instance, StayWare, which makes fiber-optic network equipment, said it wants to hire people with “an ability to deal with change and to work closely with others” to get things done.41According to this article, the most important skill to technical companies is ______.a. knowledge of softwareb. business skillc. Web skilld. fiber-optic networking42The people StayWare wants should be ______.a. open-mindedb. knowledgeablec. inventived. efficient43The information in this passage is most useful for ______.a. technical company ownersb. technical schoolsc. people looking for jobsd. people who want more money44Which of the following statements about technical companies’ hiring needs is TRUE?a. Non-technical skills are as important as technical skills.b. Non-technical skills are important to many companies.c. Most companies feel that technical skills are important.d. Most companies feel that non-technical skills are more important than technical skills.Passage TwoThe Shuttle Bus Service provides a much needed service to airport customers. By taking the shuttle, travelers have no parking fees, no long walks carrying luggage and no worry about driving in snow, rain or heavy traffic. The Shuttle picks up and delivers from four different Bloomington locations leaving the city nine times a day beginning at 4:40 a.m. and ending at 8:40 p.m. For the return trip, the shuttle leaves the airport nine times a day beginning at 6:40 a.m. and ending at 10:40 p.m., making sure you never have to wait long for a ride. Return shuttles also deliver to four convenient locations in town. Each passenger is allowed two suitcases and one carry-on piece of luggage, which is stored in a safe luggage compartment. Extra baggage and over-large objects are transported for an additional fee.Bloomington Shuttle’s drivers are all experienced professionals. Only drivers with a minimum of two years of commercial driving experience and proper state licensing are considered. Even with the experience, drivers receive an intensive training course to meet high expectations of safety, quality and service.

They have a history of two years’ safe drivingb. they have taken a thorough training coursec. they have a driver’s license issued by the stated. they have experience in commercial drivingPassage ThreeNo species more clearly represents America’s changing view of wildlife than the gray wolf. From the first arrivals of settlers in the 1600s until only the last couple of decades, wolves were generally viewed as a dangerous threat in this country. Evidence of this is found in the laws passed in both the colonies and later the states, which provided for a cash payment for each wolf skin turned over to local officials. Not only were such laws a means of obtaining much needed money, but it also encouraged the use of the wolf’s fur as clothing. This double benefit to the hunters succeeded in effectively wiping out the wolf population in most regions of the country. By 1950, wolves had been done away with everywhere in the lower 48 states exceptin the wildest part of northern Minnesota. This was the result of efforts to kill all wolves.Most people now recognize the mistake of this persecution and understand the value of such vicious animals as the wolf within the wildlife community. The National Wildlife Federation has led the fight to get the government to pass a law protecting the wolf, in order to increase the population of the animal steadily. As a result, Congress has passed a law including this animal under the Endangered Species Act.

Drying, smoking, and salting could preserve meat for a short time, but the availability of fresh meat, like that of fresh ilk, was very limited there ws no way to prevent food from going bad. But in 1810 a French inventor named Nicolas Appert developed the cooking-and-sealing process of condensing and preserving milk. Canned goods and condensed milk became more common during the 1860’s, but supplies remained low because cans had to be made by hand, By 1880, however, inventors had built machines that made it possible to produce cans from tinplates in large numbers Suddenly all kinds of food could be preserved and bought at all times of the year.Other trends and inventions had also helped make it possible for Americans to vary their daily diets. Growing city populations created a demand that encouraged fruit and vegetable farmers to raise more produce. Railroad refrigeration cars enabled growers and meat packers to ship perishables great distances and to preserve them for longer periods. Thus, by the 1890’s, people living in northern cities could enjoy southern and western strawberries, grapes, and tomatoes, previously available for a month at most, for up to six months of the year. In addition, increased use oficeboxes enabled families to store perishables. An easy means of producing ice commercially had been invented in the 1870’s, and by 1900 the nation had more than two thousand commercial ice plants, most of which made home deliveries. The icebox became a fixture in most homes and remained so until the mechanized refrigerator takes its place in the 1920’s and 1930’s.53.This passage mainly discusses ______.a)causes of food going badb)commercial production of icec)inventions that led to changes in the American dietsd)population movements in the nineteenth century54.According to the author, in the 1920’s and 1930’s home deliveries of ice ______.a. decreased in numberb. were on an irregular schedulec, increased in cost d. occurred only in the summer55.All the following preservations are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT ______.a. dryingb. canningc. cold storaged. using chemicals56.The word “fixture” in the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaningto ______.a. equipmentb. foodc. growerd. deliveryPartV TranslationDirection:Translate the following sentences into English:1.期末考试后,我们终于可以抽出时间来打扫宿舍了。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should choose the best answer to each question based on the passage. Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:The good news we get from TV and radio makes us feel more kindly toward other people, but bad news – especially news of cruelty and violence –stirs up suspicion and a sense of competition toward others.These are the findings of 10 years of experiments by research psychologists (心理学家) at Columbia University, who conclude that broadcasters encourage hostile (敌对的) behavior by stressing bad news."We found that the news people are exposed to either encourages them to concentrate on the differences between themselves and others, or on the common problems that makethem feel, 'We're all in this together,'" explained Dr. Harvey Hornstein. "News about one human being helping another … brings out feelings of trust and cooperation. But news about one person actually doing harm to another changes our estimate of other people for the worse."In an early experiment in 1968, Dr. Hornstein and his associates, who had been dropping wallets for two years to test the honesty of people, discovered that on June 4, 1968, not one wallet was returned."That was the night Robert F. Kennedy was shot," he recalled. "Strangers suddenly seemed dangerous, and nobody wanted to return a lost wallet to a stranger." But good news on the other hand, lifts us up," he stressed, citing the date of July 4, 1976, America's Bicentennial celebration. "On that day, we all felt safe and good. Being American was the thing. We all felt as if we all belonged together."Recent tests support these conclusions. In one experiment, 60 subjects were exposed to good news, bad news or music. Then they were told to play a game with a non-existent person supposedly in another room. It was a game of choice that emphasized cooperation or competition.After hearing good news, the overwhelming majority, 91 percent, played cooperatively. But after hearing bad news, competitive responses were over three times as high – up to 28 percent, from 9 percent."If we watch television and see a lot of blood," said Dr. Hornstein, ―we're probably assuming that the world is a dirtier place than we assumed before we saw that TV violence. And we'll deal with the next individual we come upon as if he is part of that grim picture of humanity. After the good news, it's the reverse."31. According to the findings of researchers at Columbia University, when peoplehear good news, they feel ________.A. happierB. safer than they really areC. more kindly toward othersD. more competitive32. Dr. Harvey Hornstein found that when people hear news about one person actuallydoing harm to another, they tend to ________.A. regard other people as worse than they really areB. treat total strangers as suspects of cruel crimesC. become hostile towards neighbors and friendsD. think about the common problems facing mankind33. What did Dr. Harvey Hornstein and his associates discover on the night of June 4,1968?A. Robert F. Kennedy was shot.B. Their wallets were lost.C. People in America suddenly became dishonest.D. Nobody returned the wallets they dropped.34. We can infer from the passage that on July 4, 1976, most probably ________.A. lost wallets were returned to their ownersB. people drank and sang and dancedC. everybody wanted to be AmericanD. even criminals were friendly to others35. We can conclude from the passage that ________.A. violence on TV leads to more violence on the streetsB. the world is a dirtier place than we assume it to beC. broadcasters should emphasize good news rather than bad newsD. people are more competitive when they are faced with challengesPassage TwoQuestions 36- 40 are based on the following passage:The Shuttle Bus Service provides a much needed service to airport customers. By taking the shuttle, travelers have no parking fees, no long walks carrying luggage and no worry about driving in snow, rain or heavy traffic. The Shuttle picks up and delivers from four different Bloomington locations leaving the city nine times a day beginning at 4:40 a.m. and ending at 8:40 p.m. For the return trip, the shuttle leaves the airport nine times a day beginning at 6:40 a.m. and ending at 10:40 p.m., making sure you never have to wait long for a ride. Return shuttles also deliver to four convenient locations in town. Each passenger is allowed two suitcases and one carry-on piece of luggage, which is stored in a safe luggage compartment. Extra baggage and over-large objects are transported for an additional fee.Bloomington Shuttle’s drivers are all experienced professionals. Only drivers with a minimum of two years of commercial driving experience and proper state licensing are considered. Even with the experience, drivers receive an intensive training course to meet high expectations of safety, quality and service. By taking a shuttle, travelers can be free from fear of damage done to their cars left in remote airport parking lots and do not have to walk through dark, empty parking lots or garages.36 The latest shuttle bus leaves the airport at ______A. 4:40 a. m.B. 6:40 a. m.C. 8:40 p. m.D. 10:40 p.m.37 All of the following are the benefits of taking the shuttle EXCEPT ______.A. you don’t have to carry your suitcase so farB.you don’t have to worry about damage done to your carC.you don’t have to drive in the rain, snow or bad trafficD.you don’t have to arrive at the airport early38 For no extra charge, one can bring ______ pieces of luggage.A. 1B. 2C. 3D. 439 The following are true of all the shuttle drivers EXCEPT ______.A.

From the first arrivals ofsettlers in the 1600s until only the last couple of decades, wolves were generally viewed as a dangerous threat in this country. Evidence of this is found in the laws passed in both the colonies and later the states, which provided for a cash payment for each wolf skin turned over to local officials. Not only were such laws a means of obtaining much needed money, but it also encouraged the use of the wolf’s fur as clothing. This double benefit to the hunters succeeded in effectively wiping out the wolf population in most regions of the country. By 1950, wolves had been done away with everywhere in the lower 48 states except in the wildest part of northern Minnesota. This was the result of efforts to kill all wolves.Most people now recognize the mistake of this persecution and understand the value of such vicious animals as the wolf within the wildlife community. The National Wildlife Federation has led the fight to get the government to pass a law protecting the wolf, in order to increase the population of the animal steadily. As a result, Congress has passed a law including this animal under the Endangered Species Act. Between 150 and 200 wolves are now wandering freely in Yellowstone National Park and the NWF is now working with both public and private organizations to make sure that wolves will be able to live in suitable habitats elsewhere in the country.41 According to the passage, most American wolves lived in 1950 ______A. in the lower 48 statesB. in northern MinnesotaC. everywhere except MinnesotaD. Yellowstone National Park42 In the second paragraph, ―the mistake of thispersecution‖ refers to ______.A. America’s changing view of wildlifeB. early settlers’ occupying of landC. America’s killing of wolvesD. people’s little knowledge of wildlife43 The major result of the NWF’s efforts for the wolves is ______.A. the preservation of wolves in MinnesotaB.the steady increase of the wolf populationC.the fight with large vicious animalsD.the American view that wolves should be killed44 The word ―habitats‖ in the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaningto ______.A. groupsB. placesC. seasonsD. periods45 NWF in the passage means:A. New World FundsB. New Woman FoundationC. National Wildlife FederationD. National Wolf FederationPassage FourQuestions 46 -50 are based on the following passage:Before the mid-nineteenth century, people in the United States ate most foods only in season.

Children do not have enough 36 . They do not realize thatTV programs often show an unreal world. Commercials lie in order to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. Children believe them and wantto 37 what they see on TV. They believe that they will make more friends if they use a certain soap—or some other product. They believe thatthe murders on TV 38 are normal and acceptable. By the time theyare out of high school; most young people have watched about 15;000 hoursof television; and have seen about 18;000 violent 39 . If they see violent deaths every day; how can they be shocked by murder in real life Television has certainly changed our lives and our society. 40its good points; it has brought many problems. We must find a solution to these problems because—whether we like it or not—television is here to stay.31-35:DCCDB 36A 37:imitate 38:A 39:B 40:D31. A. brought B. took C. did D. made32.

And even if a person is poor he doesn’t feelreally poor 42 he has a car.There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. 43 of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and 44 formof transportation. With a car people can go any place without spending a lotof money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact 45 the United States never developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public 46 . Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United Statesas they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system ofair-service 47 by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently.The third reason is the most important one; though. The American spiritof independence is 48 really made cars popular. Americans don’t liketo wait for a bus; or a train or even a plane. They don’t like to have to49 an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time.

Reading ComprehensionSection A:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some true-false questions. Decide whether each of them is true T or false F.Passage 1In the old days; divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk; because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships; but they also try to bring tothe surface the ships themselves; or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years; it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the "Lusitania"; which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 1500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $300;000 or more. The ship; lying on the sea-bed has been bought by a man called John Light. He paid about $1;200;000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship; when he has brought them to the surface; for about $ 600;000. T51. Divers try to bring up metals because some kinds of them are worth a lot of money.T52. Now divers still search for valuable things and try to bring to the earth surface the ships themselves.F53. John Light hopes he may be able to sell the whole ship of “Lusitania”for more than $ million.F54. The ship “Lusitania”sank off the southwestern coast of Ireland with a lot of people drowned.F55. In the past; divers hoped to bring up everything of a sunken ship exceptmetals.Passage 2More and more people today are realizing the importance of regular physical exercise. In the past; work for most people involved manual labor in the fresh open air of the fields. However; nowadays an increasing number of people are employed in offices or factories. Their daily work does not provide them with the amount of exercise their bodies need. Therefore; they have come to spend part of their free time doing regular physical exercise.There are many different forms of exercise to suit different tastes. For example; those who enjoy competitive sports may take up ball games. Those who prefer to exercise alone can have a run or take a walk in the morning or in the evening. Besides; people can go swimming in summer and go skating in winter. In short; no matter what their interests are; people can always find one or more sports that are suitable to them.However; the form of physical exercise must be chosen carefully. More harm than good will result if people choose the wrong form of exercise. For the aged; Qigong or Tai Ji Quan will suit them better than competitive sports. Those who have little spare time may have a regular run in the morning. Only if the kind of exercise is chosen properly and performed regularly; will it benefit people’s health; work and s tudy.T56. Nowadays; more people realize the importance of physical exercise.F57. It is unnecessary to take some exercise every day.T58. People who enjoy competitive sports may take up basketball or football. F59. Physical exercise can do more harm than good to people because they will feel tired after it.can always find one or more sports that benefit their health; work and study. IV.

In my opinion; it is essential to do the following.First; it is absolutely necessary to take 42 exercise every day. Research shows that getting plenty of exercise makes the heart beat fasterand the lungs work harder. This 43 the heart; reduces the chance of heart attack; and helps 44 blood pressure. That’s why more and more peopleare becoming active in various kinds of sports and exercises. Every morning 45 people get up early and take much exercise. Some practice Tai Ji Quanand swordplay 46 others run; jog; walk or dance to music. In the afternoon; there are also many people keen down sports. Some play basketballor volleyball or table tennis; others 47 gymnastics or track events. Through sports and exercises; people become healthier and stronger.Medical researchers have proved that what people eat affects their health. They 48 people to eat more fruits and vegetables and less meat suchas beef and pork because meat contains more fat than poultry and fish. Fatcan build up in the arteries; block the flow of blood; and cause a heart attackor stroke.Getting rid of bad habits 49 smoking and drinking alcohol is also an important way to keep healthy. Smoking and drinking alcohol injure one’s health a great deal; and therefore should be given up. Unfortunately few people follow this advice.If people follow these three ways of keeping 50 ; they can greatly improve their health.41-45:DBDCC 46-50: ADABB41. A. of B. at C. for D. to42.

Of course; it is impossible for us to be on every spot; even with the best means of transportation of our time. However; TV can bring them right in front of us and with them our life is full of joys.Above all; watching TV is educational.

Basically, there are two types of school: primary and secondary. Primary schools cater for children aged 5-11 and secondary schoolsfor ages 11-16 (and up to 19). Primary schools can be subdivided into infant schools ( for ages 5-7) and junior schools (for ages 7-11). Secondary schools may be of one type for all abilities, namely comprehensive schools; most secondary schools are of this kind. Alternatively, the pupils may be grouped according to their ability and selected by means of an examination at the age of 11 ( known as the “11 plus exam”). Thus, grammar schools cater for those with academic ability; modern schools for those with less academic ability; and technical school for those with more practical skills.1.Schools _________________the pupils’ age and the type of educationprovided.2.There are _______________ schools; primary and secondary.3.Primary schools ________________ into infant and junior schools.4.Secondary school pupils __________________ their ability.5.The criterion for classifying secondary schools is whether or not thereis _________________________________.Passage 2:读下面的段落并完成下面的表格Reading the following paragraphs and complete the tables that follow:There are two important considerations in choosing a good brand name for a new product.

Cloze Test (10 points, 1 point each)However careful one may be, he cannot possibly listen carefully to everything that he hears. There are 11 of reasons for this. One of them is the overload of messages most of us 12 each day. In addition to the numerous hours we 13 hearing other people speak, we may spend several hours listening to the radio or sitting in front of a television set. 14, it is impossible to focus our attention completely on what is said; our mind might be 15 elsewhere. Preoccupation with our personal concerns is 16 reason we don't always listen carefully. A romance 17 sour or a good grade on a test may take prominence in our mind even as 18 is speaking to us. Furthermore, we are surrounded by all kinds of noises which interfere 19 listening. For example, voices at a party or 20 of traffic may simply make it difficult for us to catch everything that is being said.11. A. the number B. a number C. number D. numbers12.

Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2 points each)Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Many of today's most trusted sales techniques were invented over a century ago by a young merchant named Eaton in Toronto. When he was young, Eaton worked briefly with his brothers in small-town stores. In 1869, he sep up his own shop in downtown Toronto. He had many competitors, but he was also ambitious and had a plan for success. He offered a unique style of trade, but as was expected, all the other shopkeepers laughed at him, believing he would eventually fail. However, Eaton was not a man to be easily defeated; he came up with a brand new notion of business - "Goods satisfactory, or money refunded." He sold all his goods at fixed prices and only for cash.With a sharp sense of what the public wanted, he went out of the way to meet their needs. His business grew rapidly. He set up new branches and started mail order service that allowed people to buy from a list of his goods.Eaton's list-advertisements of his day-was the first of its kind. It was distributed and read all over the country. It was the only way to access good-quality goods at reasonable prices for people living far away from big cites. It became part of their life. They even called it The Wishing Book. The secret of the list's success was that Eaton gained the respect of this customers; they trusted him for good prices and quality goods. Probably because he remembered his miserable early days in Ireland, Eaton thought much of the welfare of his employees: better working conditions, shorter weekday hours than his competitors and Saturday afternoons off in the summer. In all this, he was a leader.21. The best description of Eaton is that ______.A. he was the richest merchant in TorontoB. he was a successful technical inventorC. he introduced new sales practicesD. he changed people's ideas about businessmen22. Eaton's success lay primarily in that ____.A. he sold only good quality goodsB. he was the first person to provide good serviceC. he treated his employees better than any of his competitorsD. he won respect from his customers23. From the passage we can infer that ______.A. Eaton invented the idea of the internet shoppingB. Eaton drove other businessmen to failureC. Eaton never sold his goods on creditD. Eaton was defeated by his rivals24. The best title for this passage is _____.A. Good Goods, of Money RefundedB. Eaton, a Sales InventorC. Customers' Respect, a Secret of SuccessD. Eaton's list, a Welcome Event in Sales History25. Eaton's List was important to people on farms because it was a convenient way of getting _____.A. good-quality goods at reasonable pricesB. goods at unreasonable pricesC. good-quality goods at unreasonable pricesD. poor-quality goods at reasonable pricesPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.The threat of a global outbreak (疾病大爆发) of bird flu makes it urgent for the international community to cooperate effectively. Wealthy countries will have to provide hundreds of millions of dollars for the testing and production of medicines necessary for treating patients suffering from bird flu. Developing countries, particularly in Southeast Asia, where the bird flu virus (病毒) has spread since 1997, must work out special programs so that farmers will not hide sighs of possible outbreaks. In addition, the way such farm birds as chickens and ducks are traditionally raised and marketed in the developing world should be changed; there should be more distance between the birds and their keepers. Countries should deal with the disease with joint effort. If one country is inadequately prepared, it will be a threat to every other country.The potential effects of a national outbreak of bird flu are enormous. Firstly, an outbreak may kill large numbers of people. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that an outbreak similar to the mild Hong Kong flu of 1968 could kill as many as 7.4 millions people. If it were as dangerous as the 1918 Spanish flu, which killed 50 million, the number would be much higher. Secondly, such an outbreak may cause great financial damage. The latest outbreak of bird flu, which began in December 2003, has cost Southeast Asia more than $10 billion and depressed its GDP by 1.5 percent. If a new outbreak of bird flu were to last for a whole year, $800 billion would be lost. Despite the 124 human cases and 63 deaths from bird flu since December 2003, the virus remains mainly a disease animals. However, the more animals that die of the disease, the more chances it has of spreading to people. Large numbers of dead or dying birds mean that more people will be exposed to the virus and change into a virus with new characteristics. If the international community works together efficiently, man can surely prevent such a virus and possibly save millions of lives.26. Faced with the threat of a global outbreak of bird flu, the international community should ________.A. establish new marketsB. work together effectivelyC. stop birds from flying to other countriesD. raise fewer chickens and ducks27. The second paragraph focuses on ______.A. World Health OrganizationB. flus in Hong Kong and SpainC. the economy of Southeast AsiaD. possible effects of a bird flu outbreak28. The number of people who have died of bird flu since 2003 is _______.A. 63B. 124C. 7.4 millionD. 50 million29. In the third paragraph, the author is mainly interested in _____.A. stimulating financial growthB. reducing economic damagesC. saving human livesD. protecting bird species30. The passage deals with all the following aspects bird flu EXCEPT _______.A. the origin and history of bird fluB. the importance of international cooperationC. the possible dangers of a national outbreakD. the significance of preventing it from spreadingPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The long summer holidays are finally over and some parents are pleased. "We worry more about their safety in the holidays," explains one mother from North London. If teenagers are not wandering around on public transport in a big and potentially dangerous city, they are chatting to strangers in an internet chat room! Well, that's an extreme picture of the UK today, but many parents are worried about how much freedom they can give their children during the holidays and at weekends.Weekends are not the only time to worry! Newspaper are full of stories about too many school kids going to school by car because their parents do not want them to travel alone on a bus or train. This summer there were more frightening stories of teenagers disappearing with questionable friends that they met on the net. All the Media stories help increase parents fears, but is the UK really so dangerous?Many young people feel that life for their parents was easier. In the 1960s young people played in the streets more and traveled around town without their parents. "At least our parents can keep tabs on us," says 16-year-old Julia. "So many people have mobile phones now and their parents ring to find out where they are. I use my mobile to get Dad to come to the station when I arrive late." Mobiles are not just expensive toys; they help keep young people safe. Most significantly, they help keep young people safe. Most significantly, they make parents feel better. Only one problem is, though, that some young people have been attacked by thieves who want to steal their mobile phones.Young people like going out with friends, but they now need to learn how to get home safely. Five million young people in the UK between the ages of 9 to 16 use chat rooms to make friends, but they, too, need to be careful and never give their personal details to a stranger. Young people today have more opportunities to meet new people and go out at night more than their parents ever did.

Many of Hawaii’s people are descendents of immigrants from different parts of Asia. Most of these Asians are of Japanese ancestry. The parents and grandparents of other Hawaiians came from China, the Philippine Islands, and Korea. In addition, there are some Polynesians in Hawaii. Their ancestors came to Hawaii thousands of years before any other people. Hawaii is rich in traditions. Hawaiians are Americans, but they have preserved the ceremonies of their homelands.People from all over Hawaii come to see the Japanese O-bon Festival in memory of dead relatives and friends. This is an important part of the Buddhist religion. The O-bon ceremonies take place in July and August on Oahu, the main island of Hawaii. There is music of drums and flutes in the courtyards of Buddhist temples. Men and women, wearing traditional clothing called kimonos, do the folk dances of their ancestral land. In the evening the people go to the seashore. They place paper lanterns on hundreds of tiny wood boats. These lights lead the souls of the dead across the dark water to rest until the next year.Chinese Hawaiians have their own way of celebrating the past. For the Moon-Festival in mid-August, Chinese stores sell delicious round cakes filled with meat. On the night of full moon, families get together in a garden or open-air space to eat these cakes and drink tea. The cakes are the same shape as the bright moon they see in the sky. Then the people remember how their ancestors won a war by sending secret messages to each other in round cakes. The moon festival is important because it helps Chinese-Hawaiians to recall the story of their brave ancestors.46.
