You look frightened．W：I just saw the horror movie The Final Destination．It really scared me．M：Oh, I know it．Which part scared you most?W：My hair was standing on end the whole time．（Text 5）W：I'm very grateful for what you have done for my daughter．M：That's all right．That's my job．W：I know she has brought a lot of trouble to you．Thanks．M：No trouble at all．By the way, keep her in bed for two weeks．（Text 6）W：Now, have we got everything we need?M：Well, let's see．There are some onions and potatoes, but there aren't any mushrooms．W：Are there any carrots?M：A few．But we don't need many, so that's OK．W：How much milk is there?M：Only a little．And there isn't any butter, and we haven't got much cheese．W：Well, we don't need much cheese．Is there anything else?M：No, not for Shepherd's Pie．We've got some salt and pepper, and there's a lot of flour．Would you like to help with the shopping?W：Yeah．（Text 7）M：Have you got the list of who's coming to the party?W：Yes, I do．And I've told them to keep the date a secret．John hates that kind of thing．Do you remember when he found out that we'd bought him a birthday cake last year, and that surprise Christmas party?

No big deal．．．laptops have batteries ．．．M：Yes, but remember, in those days we didn't have laptops．If your computer crashed, you lost everything．Everybody lost their papers that afternoon ．．．including me．W：What did you do?M：I went back to the good, old-fashioned way．W：You mean typewriters?M：No, the first word processor．（Text 10）M：Good morning everybody, today I would like to focus mainly on how to improve your English for practical purposes．In English, as in most languages, there are four main aspects of speaking, listening, reading and writing．I believe two activities can help all four of these．Firstly, reading the newspaper has always been noted to be able to help improve one's English．However, I personally feel that reading books is more useful．While newspaper reading can improve your English, I feel that it may be too boring to secondary school students．There are books written for advanced users, so I am of the opinion that books are better for students to improve their English．The second activity is watching the news．I know I just said the news is boring, but I think watching the news can be interesting to students．Another advantage of watching the news is that you can learn how to use body language while speaking I've also noticed that there are some English newspapers in Tokyo．This is the most beneficial to learners of English．I hope my speech has been helpful to all of you．Thank you for taking the time to listen．。

1Shree Bose is one of the most impressive kids graduating from Fort Worth Country Day High School this year. Bose has a large circle of friends, and there’s one who you may have heard of: President Obama. He has twice publicly recognized her achievements in cancer research and spoken with her in the Oval Office.If that isn’t enough, Bose recently gave a TED Talk about her work with the cancer drug Cisplatin, which also won her first prize at the Google Science Fair and recognition as one of Glamour magazi ne’s Young Amazing Women of the Year.After watching her grandfather struggle with liver cancer, Bose was determined to help out in any way she could. As a high school student though, her scientific choices were limited. She reached out to various hospitals and research centers, but doctors turned down her requests because they felt she was too inexperienced medically.Only the North Texas Science Health Center respected her determination and chose to guide her. The results were amazing.Bose chose to study a protein (蛋白质) and its reaction with the cancer drug Cisplatin. She noticed that when she prevented this protein from growing, Cisplatin was allowed to begin destroying cancer cells once again.“My project not only contributes to the understanding of the relationship between the protein and Cisplatin, but also suggests a newer, more effective treatment for patients who resist Cisplatin,” Bose said.Bose’s achievements aren’t limited to the lab, though. She was also captain of her swim team and editor-in-chief of her school paper.Bose is currently getting practical experience at the National Institute of Health and she’ll be attending Harvard in the fall. She plans to study molecular biology and go to medical school. Eventually, she would like to be a doctor.1. President Obama has spoken with Bose because she ______.A. gave a TED Talk recentlyB. is captain of her swim teamC. has a large circle of friendsD. contributed to the cancer research2. According to Bose’s research, ______ helps mak e Cisplatin work better.A. stopping the protein from growingB. destroying cancer cells timelyC. using the drug more frequentlyD. making the protein react with the drug3. From the passage, we know that _____.A. Bose’s research was supported from the startB. Bose plans to become a doctor in the futureC. Bose will study in the National Institute of HealthD. Bose’s grandfather asked her to do cancer research4. The passage is mainly about _____.A. a research on cancer drugsB. a new effective cancer treatmentC. a doctor who has a promising futureD. a girl who did research on cancer treatment2A surprising new research suggests it can actually be good to feel bad at work, and that feeling good in the workplace can lead to negative outcomes.The study of emotions in the workplace, edited by University of Liverpool researchers Dr. Lindebaum and Peter Jordan, is the topic of a Special Issue of the journal ‘Human Relations’. They found that the commonly-held belief that being positive in the workplace produces positive outcomes, while negative emotions lead to negative outcomes, may be in need for reconsideration. This is partly due to this belief failing to take into account the differences in working environment which affect outcomes.For instance, anger does not always lead to negative outcomes and in some cases, anger can be considered a force for good through acting upon injustices. An employee, for example, could express anger constructively after a manager has treated a fellow worker unfairly. In such cases, anger can be useful. Likewise, being too positive in the workplace, rather than resulting in greater performance and productivity, can lead to self-satisfaction and being too shallow in one’s personality.One article within the issue also finds that, within team work situation, negativity can have a good effect, leading to fewer consensuses (共识) but a further discussion or debate on an important issue among workers, which enhances team effectiveness.Lindebaum said, “The f indings of the study published in this Special Issue challenge the commonly-held belief that in the workplace positive emotions bring about a positive outcome, and vice versa.”He added, “This Special Issue adds to our knowledge and understanding of how th e positive and negative dynamics (动态) affect the working environment and is certain to have practical application in the workplace for the years to come.”1. Why did researchers of the study of emotions find that the commonly-held belief needs to be consideredagain?A. Because different people hold different attitudes towards it.B. Because it doesn’t consider the differences in real working environment.C. Because it has been proved to be totally wrong in real working environment.D. Because it do esn’t tell the truth.2. What does the underlined word “Likewise” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. SimilarlyB. DifferentlyC. ApproximatelyD. Occasionally3. It can be inferred from what Lindebaum said in the last paragraph that ____.A. the findi ngs of the study will completely change people’s belief in the endB. the findings of the study will not have any influence on the workplaceC. the findings of the study won’t be just a theory published in the journalD. the findings of the study will make us work negatively in the future4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. To Be Positive About Your WorkB. To Be Negative About Your WorkC. Negativity at Work Probably Bringing About Good ThingsD. People Challenging the Commonly-held BeliefOver the years, Brian Wansink, director of the Food and Brand Lab at Cornell University, has studied such things as how far Americans typically drive to buy food, how many times we refill our plates at all-you-can-eat buffets and how we organize our kitchens. In the mid-2000s he famously coined the phase “mindless eating”(and wrote a book by that name) to focus attention on all the bad dietary decisions we make without really thinking about them.His new book, Slim by Design: Mindless Eating Solutions for Everyday Life, aims to change the design of restaurants, school lunchrooms, office cafeterias and homes so that the mindless choices we make will be more healthful ones. Some examples:Keep kitchen counters clear. No visible snack food, no bread, no nuts — not even breakfast cereal. In Wansink’s research, “women who had even one box of breakfast cereal that was visible –- anywhere in their kitchen —weighed 21 pounds more than their neighbor who didn’t.”Trick yourself into drinking less w ine. “We tend to focus on the height of what we pour and not the width, so we pour 12 percent less wine into taller wineglasses than we pour into wider wineglasses.” And the shape of the glass is not the only variable that affects how much we drink. Wansin k writes: “Because red wine is easier to see than white wine, we pour 9 percent less red wine whenever we pour a glass.”Wansink said his researchers also found that people ate less at restaurants when they sat in well-lighted areas near windows and doors, than in darker areas or in the back. They ate less if they were offered a doggie bag, or to-go box, before they got their meals: apparently the idea of getting a “free” second meal outweighed (比……重要) the impulse (冲动) to clean their plates. Workers who frequently ate at their desks weighed 15.4 pounds less, on average, than those who didn’t. Fruits and vegetables kept on the top shelf of the refrigerator were eaten at higher rates than those on lower shelves.The point, Wansink says, is to consider findings like those and change your environment or habits. Then you won’t have to think about it: You’ll just eat less.1. Why did Brian Wansink write Slim by Design: Mindless eating Solutions for Everyday Life?A. Because he wanted people to become thin.B. Because he wished to change the design of dining places only.C. Because he hoped to coin a new phase “mindless eating”.D. Because he intended to help people make more healthful dietary decisions.2. According to Wansink, which of the following affects the amount of wine we drink ____.A. the shape of wineglassesB. the color of wineglassesC. the taste of wineD. the quality of wine3. The underlined phrase “a doggie bag” in paragraph 5 probably means ____.A. a bag for carrying dogsB. a box for junk foodC. a container for leftoversD. a bag for carrying dog food4. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Changing environment or habits of eating will help you eat less.B. Eating fruits and vegetables is better for your health.C. Keeping your kitchen counter clear of any food will help make you thin.D. Many people eat or drink too much without paying attention to it.This Is What a REAL Silver Dollar Looks LikeIf you trust in the yen, the euro and the dollar ... stop reading.Because this is a story about the silver coin EVERYBODY wants.You read the headlines.

So，every day Ms Cheng carries a bag of parcels，letters and documents and does her rounds in North Point. She’s a courier(快递员)Five years ago．Ms Cheng was a nurse at a private clinic. She had worked there for 30 years but was Jobless when the doctor migrated. It was difficult for her to find another job as a nurse. “People do not trust my ability when they learn how old I am，”she said. After two years of se arching, she eventually found another nursing job. But then after two years，she quit Why?‘My colleagues were young and they didn′ t understand me because of my age. They often asked me ‘You are so old what are you working for? I was very unhappy”She s aid. So while the rest of her family left for work，she was left to lonely boredom at home .Then her neighbours told her about Employee’s Retraining Board(ERB)offering retraining courses for older people. These courses are specifically designed to encourage the older people back to work.“I was interested in courier work. I didn’t think my age was a barrier because I was fit.”Shesaid .Upon graduating，Ms Cheng was offered a job by the Speeding Shuttle Courier Service Company. But then Ms Cheng was faced with a conflict：she was caught between honour and employment“I felt embarrassed about carrying and delivering letters and parcels.”she said. It took Ms Cheng 24 hours to make up her mind：there was nothing wrong or embarrassing about doing the job. So she went off to work as a courier．Ms Cheng’s employer is delighted with her responsible attitude and said．“I hired older people because they were able and reliable .Age is not an important factor but attitude is Many old people will not run from difficult ies but the young ones will”1. Why was it difficult for Ms Cheng to find another nursing Job?A. Nursing clinics were hard to findB. She found it difficult to trust othersC. People thought she was too old to workD. People didn’t think she had enough wo rk experience2. Ms Cheng left her second nursing job because___________.A. she was bored with change less jobsB. it was too difficultC. she was too old to do the jobD. the other staff made her feel uncomfortable3 Employee“Retraining Board is a plan f or___________.A. finding jobs for older peopleB. teaching new skills to older peopleC. training older people to be healthierD. providing older people with chances to earn money4. According to Anthony Chong，young people___________.A. are more likely to give up than the older onesB. are less experienced than the older oresC. are filler and stronger than the older onesD. are able and reliable5 From the text, we call infer that__________.A. the life of the old is miserableB. there is a generation gap between young and oldC. job—hunting is hard for old peopleD. the old are looked down upon in society6In this age of Internet chat, video games and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. Yet despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition which she won last year.As a writer, I know about winning contests – and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection letter from the publisher. I also know the pressure of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victorie s. What if she doesn’t win the contest again? That’s the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and destroyed hopes can resurface in our children.A revelation (启示) came last week when I asked her, “Don’t you want to win again?” “No,” she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自发地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music less on. I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it.Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. Because I know very little about farm animals who use tools or angels who go to first grade, I had to accept that I was co-opting my daughter’s experience.While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.1. What do we learn from the first paragraph?A. Now many amusements compete for children’s time.B. Children have lots of fun doing mindless activities.C. Rebecca is much too busy to enjoy her leisure time.D. Rebecca often go online for her writing materials.2. What did the author say about her own writing experience?A. She was constantly under pressure of writing more.B. Most of her stories had been rejected by publishers.C. She didn’t quite live up to her reputation as a writer.D. Her road to success was full of pain and frustrations.3. The underlined word “resurface” in Paragraph 2 probably means“______”.A. recycleB. reappearC. reconsiderD. reunite4. Why did Rebecca want to enter this year’s writing contest?A. She was confident about her talent in writing.B. She was sure of winning with her mother’s help.C. She wanted to share her stories with readers.D. She had won a prize in the previous contest.5. The author took great pains to improve her daughter’s stories because _______.A. she wanted to help Rebecca realize her dreams of becoming a writerB. she was afra id Rebecca’s imagination might run wild while writingC. she did not want to disappoint Rebecca who needed her help so muchD. she believed she had the knowledge and experience to offer guidance6. What’s the author’s advice for parents?A. Children should be given every chance to voice their opinions.B. Parents should keep an eye on the activities their kids engage in.C. Children should be allowed freedom to grow through experience.D. A writing career, though attractive, is not for every child to pursue.7One night recently, I was driving down a two-lane highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car approached from the opposite direction at about the same speed. As we passed each other, I caught the other driver’s eye for only a second. I wondered whether he might be thinking as I was. How dependent we were on each other at that moment. I was relying on him not to fall asleep, not to be put off by a phone conversation, not to cross over into my lane and bring my life to a sudden end. Though we had never spoken a word to each other, he relied on me in just the same way.Multiplied a million times over, I believe that is the way the world works. At some level, we all depend upon one another. Sometimes that dependence requires us simply not to do something like crossing over the double yellow line. And sometimes it requires us to act cooperatively, with friends or even with strangers.As technology shrinks our world, the need increases for cooperative action among nations. In 2003, doctors in five nations were quickly organized to identify the SARS virus, which saved thousands of lives.The threat of international terrorism has shown itself to be a similar problem, one requiring team action by police and intelligence forces across the world. We must recognize that our fates are not ours alone to control.In my own life, I’ve put great stock in personal responsibility. But, as time has passed, I’ve also come to believe that there are moments when one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of others. So, while each of us faces the case of driving alone down a dark road, what we must learn is that the approaching light may not be a threat, but a shared moment of trust.1.

It’s time to get started. But what’s next? Beginning college can be an exciting but awkward time. Follow these tips to adjust to your new life rapidly and make the most of your college experience.● To save time and money, use the college’s bus system. Taking the bus to school is quick, easy and free inmost college towns. You won’t have to locate or afford a place to park either. It’s also a good way to be environmentally aware.● Save pennies on books by waiting until class starts. You might not even need all of the recommendedbooks. New textbooks cost an arm and a leg. Try buying used textbooks —it’s a surefire way to save money and serves the purpose as well.● Do never look at college life as an endless series of parties and social activities. But there is a whole lotmore to college if you’re serious about graduating. Having a good college exp erience is all about balancing work and fun.● Be aware that your living environment can largely affect your academic success. If the dorm doesn’t suityou, consider living at home with your family or renting your own apartment. The best location for your studies isn’t always your dorm. Find a quiet area, like the library, to do your work. Alternatively, buy some headphones that block out noise.● Be mindful of your diet. Make healthy food choices and watch what you eat. Avoid foods that areprocessed or hi gh in sugar. The “freshman 15” is real. Many college students gain at least 15 pounds during their freshmen year.● While electives (选修课) can be helpful when figuring out your major, you shouldn’t entirely rely onthem. Clubs and other organizations exist around. Get involved. Make sure, though, that you still have time to study. Having too much on your plate can hurt your grades.1. Which of the following ideas can be financially wise?A. Driving your own car.B. Buying used books.C. Renting an apartment.D. Attending activities.2. In the text, freshmen are repeatedly warned against ______.A. academic failuresB. physical problemsC. traffic accidentsD. social activities3. The “freshman 15” tells the fact that some freshmen ______.A. attend limited activities on campusB. have little regular physical exerciseC. focus less on their academic workD. take relaxed attitudes to their diets4. The underlined phrase “having too much on your plate” probably refers to ______.A. using too much money for mealsB. eating too many unhealthy foodsC. taking part in too many after-class activitiesD. taking an elective that has too many students9Based on new analysis, we are rapidly approaching major climate change and the effects on society and the environment could be quite severe. Geographers predict that within the next eighty years, current world climate zones could shift and some could completely disappear. Polar regions will get colder whiletropical regions will get even hotter, forcing animals to migrate (迁徙) north.Climate changes like these could lead to the spread of diseases. Tropical storms and hurricanes will not only increase but may also become more intense. If the changes come too quickly, animal and plant species may not be able to adapt fast enough and could disappear.According to Science Daily, a new study predicts that by the year 2100, many of today’s familiar climates will be replaced by climates unknown in today’s world. It is urgent that we reduce the risks of these far-reaching consequences for the whole world. The planet itself has been showing signs of change.In 2004, a serious tsunami created by a major earthquake killed thousands in Sumatra and in 2008, thousands died in China because of another severe earthquake. Egypt was hit in 2009 with a major earthquake and Haiti was devastated in 2010 by yet another massive earthquake.Within just the last few months, new reports from around the world have been coming in and most agr ee that our climate situation is much worse than previously thought. At this point, it doesn’t matter what is causing it, but rather, what can be done about it. What’s more, our world is getting more and more unstable every year. There is war and threat of war everywhere. Natural disasters are becoming more frequent and serious.However, other planets are experiencing global warming as well as our own and some scientists believe there may be some connection between this. No one knows anything for sure at this point because there is simply not enough data.1. Which of the following would be the best title for the Passage ?A. Ways to protect our planet.B. Solutions to climate change.C. Be prepared for climate change.D. Climate change and its effects.2. What is the author’s purpose in using the examples of earthquakes?A. To show the damage earthquakes caused.B. To remind people to prevent future earthquakes.C. To show major changes are taking place on the planet.D. To tell us more earthquakes will happen in the future.3. What does the underlined word “devastated” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Separated.B. Destroyed.C. Removed.D. Affected.3. What can be inferred from the Passage?A. Animals and plan ts won’t die out as long as climate changes slowly.B. There’s enough data for us to predict the future of climate change.C. The world is getting more unstable because of animal migration.D. The earth is not the only planet that is experiencing climate change.10I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval, he learns to love himself and will besuccessful in his own way. Several weeks ago, I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair to go over the math lines. I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he would concentrate better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up again. I was getting frustrated, but then it hit me. I started noticing his answers were much quicker and accurate when he stood up. Could he be more absorbed while standing up?This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I was raised to believe that a quiet, calm child was a sure way to success. This child would have the willpower to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life.Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of DNA and personality qualities, and all you can do is loving and accepting them. As parents, throughout their growing years and beyond that, we need to be our kids’ best cheerleaders, guiding them and helping them find their way.I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate. Obviously, he is concentrating just in hisown way and not mine. We need to learn to accept our kids’ ways of doing things. Some way may have worked for me but doesn’t mean we need to carry it through generations. There is nothing sweeter than being personal and uniqu e. It makes us free and happy and that’s just the way I want my kids to live their own life.1. Time and again the author got his son seated in order to make him ______.A. work fastB. go politeC. stay relaxedD. keep attentive2. The underl ined “it” (in the first paragraph) probably refers to ______.A. his son’s doing better while standing upB. his failure in keeping his son under controlC. his own experience as a school boyD. his disappointment with his active child3. By this passage, the author attempts to tell other parents to ______.A. correct their kids’ manners from the early agesB. respect and trust their kids’ ways of behaviorsC. develop a good relationship with their childrenD. guarantee their children’s freedom at home4. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A. Parental help with teens’ studyB. Adult influence on teen growthC. Kids’ success in their own stylesD. Friendship between generations11Listening to music while you drive can improve your speed and ability to get away from accidents, according to Australian psychologists. But turning your car radio up to full volume could probably make you end up in an accident. The performance of difficult tasks can be influenced if people are subjected to loud noise. The experience of pulling up at traffic lights alongside cars with loud music made some psychologists in the University of Sydney look into whether loud music has something to do with driving. The psychologists invited 60 men and women aged between 20 and 28 as subjects and tested them on almost the same driving tasks under three noise conditions: silence, rock music played at a gentle 55 decibels (分贝), and the same music at 85 decibels.For 10 minutes the subjects sat in front of a screen operating a simple machine like a car. They had to track (追踪) a moving disk on screen, respond to traffic signals changing color, and brake in response to arrows that appeared without warning.On the tracking task, there was no difference in performance under the three noise conditions. But under both the loud and quiet music conditions, the performers “braked” at a red light about 50 milliseconds sooner than they did when there was no rock music at all. That could mean a reduction in braking distance of a couple of meters actually, the difference between life and death for a pedestrian.When it came to the arrows that appeared across the visual field, the psychologists found that when。
