You shouldmake the correct choice .Advertising follows us everywhere. Whenever we turn on the television, listen to the radio or open a newspaper or magazine, we are bombarded with advertisements. They invite us to try a new type of orange juice, wear X-brand jeans or watch the latest film. They beg us to notice the difference and discover the advantages. They exist to make us want what they are selling.Strangely, the more we are exposed to advertising the less we notice it. We get so used to seeing advertisements everywhere that they become largely invisible, as if they were another part of our everydaylives. But does that mean that we are no longer affected by them?One advertising expert believes that the special power of advertising lies in the fact that we do not pay much attention to it. Dr. Herbert Krugman, who was head of research for a major advertising company for many years, says that the less we notice ads, the more we are affected by them.Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing advertisements, we lower our defenses, allowing the messages of the advertisements to be taken in and stored, ready to be triggered into action at the right moment. He says that the effects of advertising on the individual are small, but over a period of time they have a powerful effect on the masses.41. Ads exist to make people want .A) a new type of orange juice B) X-brand jeansC) to watch the latest film D) what they advertise42. The more we see ads, the less we .A) pay attention to them B) feel tired of themC) neglect them D) put up with them43. Although we may think we are not affected by them,Dr. Krugman believes that advertisementsaffect .A) all of us B) most of usC)some of us D) a few individuals44. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing ads, we begin to .A) like them B) be on guard against themC) accept them D) dislike them45. According to the passage, advertising exists mainly to .A) inform B) persuade C) mislead D) entertainTask 2Directions: Read the following passage and then decide whether the statements are true or false.Write the “T” for “true” and “F” for“false”.From Monday until Friday most people are busy working or studying,but in the evenings and on weekends they are free to rest and enjoy themselves . Some watch television or go to see films; others take part in sports. It depends on one’s interests. There are many different ways we spend our spare time.Almost everyone has some kind of hobby. It may be anything from collecting stamps to making model airplanes. Some hobbies are very expensive, but others don’t cost anything at all. Some collections are worth a lot of money; others are valuable only to their owners.I know a man who has a coin collection worth several thousand dollars. A short time ago he bought an unusual fifty-cent piece worth 250 dollars! He was very happy and thought the price was just right. On the other hand, my youngest brother collects match boxes. He has almost 600 of them, but I don’t think that they are worth any money. However, to my brother they are very valuable. Nothing makes him happier than to find new matchboxes for his collection.That’s what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our spare time simply for the fun ofit. The value in dollars is not important, but thepleasure it gives us is.46. All the people are busy working or studying in theevenings and on weekends.47.People spend their spare time in many different ways.( )48.My youngest brother has already got 600 matchboxes.( )49.To find a new matchbox is the happiest thing for myyoungest brotherto do.( )50.My youngest brother’s collection must be worth a lotofmoney.() Part V.Translation (20 scores)Section ADirections: Choose the best translation.51.Students should make good use of their four years to study hard.A) 学生应该充分利用大学四年时间努力学习。

图表范例一Students Use of Computers24681012141990199520022002Hours例文: Students Use of Computers 提纲: 1. 上图所示为某校大学生平均每周使用计算机的时间: 1990年(2 hours ), 1995年 (4 hours), 2002年 (14 hours),请描述其变化; 2. 请说明发生这些变化的原因(可从计算机的用途、价格或社会发展等方面加以说明);3. 你认为目前大学生在计算机使用中有什么困难或问题。
参考范文(1)Student Use of ComputersAs is clearly shown in the chart, the number of hours students spenton computers increased from two to four hours per week from 1990 to 1995. Especially, the number rose to about 14 hour per week in 2002.There are three factors leading to the change. To begin with, the price of computers is getting much lower than before so that many students can afford it. In addition, it is very convenient for us to study with the help of computers. For example, e-mails enable us to keep in touch with our teachers and friends. Last but not least, with fast development of the modern society, a computer has become a must for many people. To sum up, low price, convenience and wide use contribute to the increase in the use of computers.As for me, student use of computers is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it is a good helper in searching for information, drawing pictures, etc. One the other hand, various computer games might distract students from their studies. In brief, computers can serve us well if they are used in the right way.参考范文(2)Student Use of ComputersAs is clearly shown in the chart, the average number of hours a student spent on computers increased from two to four hours per week from 1990 to 1995. Especially, the number reached approximately 14 hour per week in 2002. Why are there such great changes during these days?There are three factors leading to this phenomenon. Firstly, because of the sharp decline in the price of computers, most college students can afford one. Secondly, the Internet provides access to various kinds of information students are interested in. Finally, playing computer games or surfing online is relaxing. To sum up, low price, easy access to information and wide use make students use computers a lot.As for me, computers do bring convenience to students; however, it is no good fro students to spend too much time chatting online or playing computer games. In brief, in spite of the problems concerning the use of computers, we can’t deny that computers are of more merits than defects.Sample 1Financial Sources of College StudentsFrom the table, we can see clearly that Chinese college students and their American peers rely on different financial sources for their life and study. About 90% of Chinese students get money from their parents. In contrast, only 45% of American students resort to this way. About 40% of American students depend on part-time jobs for income, but only 5% of Chinese students do so. Scholarship is the financial source for 15% of American students, whereas only for 5% of Chinese students.There are several reasons leading to this difference. On the one hand, independence is greatly honored in American society, and students would be proud to depend on themselves. Besides, they have a more flexible schedule so they can have more time to do part-time jobs. On the other hand, some Chinese students take their parents’financial support for granted. Similarly, parents believe it’s their duty to finance their children’s educationI think with the reform in college education, this tendency in China may be changed. The widespread adoption of credit-system will give Chinese students more time and flexibility to pursue part-time jobs and get more independence from their parents. Also, with the passage of time, both the students’ and the parents’ ideas will change greatly. Thus, more and more Chinese college students are sure to rely on themselves ratherthan on their parents for finance.Sample 2Financial Sources of College StudentsAccording to the table, the number of Chinese students who get money from their parents doubles that of American ones, 45% and 90% respectively. But the percentage of American students who depend on part-time jobs is much larger than that of Chinese ones. It can also be seen clearly that scholarship is the financial source for 15% of American students, while only for 5% of Chinese students.Several factors can account for the above difference. For one thing, independence is highly honored in American society and students take great pride in self-reliance. For another, American students have a more flexible schedule so they can have more time to do part-time jobs. Another contributing factor is that both Chinese students and their parents take parents’ financial support for granted.The tendency for Chinese college students to rely on their parents for finance may be changed. The widespread adoption of credit-system will give Chinese students more time and flexibility to pursue part-time jobs and get more independence from their parents. What’s more, great changes may take place not only in the students’ ideas but also in their parents’, which, in turn, will lead Chinese students to regard it as a pride to be self-reliant.如何用英语描述图表一、图表类型基本单词图表类型:table(表格)、chart(图表)、diagram(图标)、graph(多指曲线图)、column chart(柱状图)、pie graph(饼图)、tree diagram(树形图)、饼图:pie chart、直方图或柱形图:bar chart/histogram、趋势曲线图:line chart/curve diagram、表格图:table、流程图或过程图:flow chart/sequence diagram、程序图:processing/procedures diagram二、图表描述基本词语1、描述:show、describe、illustrate、can be seen from、clear、apparent、reveal、represent2、内容:figure、statistic、number、percentage、proportion三、常用的描述句型The table/chart diagram/graph shows (that)According to the table/chart diagram/graphAs (is) shown in the table/chart diagram/graphAs can be seen from the table/chart/diagram/graph/figures,figures/statistics shows (that)……It can be seen from the figures/statisticsWe can see from the figures/statisticsIt is clear from the figures/statisticsIt is apparent from the figures/statisticstable/chart/diagram/graph figures (that) ……table/chart/diagram/graph shows/describes/illustrates四、图表中的数据(Data)具体表达法1、表示数据变化的单词或者词组rapid/rapidly 迅速的,飞快的,险峻的sharp/sharply 锐利的,明显的,急剧的gradual/gradually 渐进的,逐渐的slight/slightly 稍微的、略微地stable/stably 稳定的2、其它在描述中的常用到的词significant changes 图中一些较大变化noticeable trend 明显趋势during the same period 在同一时期in terms of/in respect of/regarding 在……方面in contrast 相反,大不相同government policy 政府政策market forces 市场力量五、图表描述套句1.the table shows the changes in the number of……over the period from……to……该表格描述了在……年之……年间……数量的变化。

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Alex was excited to finally get his license. He was looking forward to going to the movies and to visit friends without needing someone to take him. A couple of weeks later, Alex headed to his friend Matt’s house. Two blocks from Matt’s, Alex was waiting at a stop sign when he felt a sudden jolt (摇晃). Someone had rear-ended his car. Alex started panicking —and his first thought was, “What do I do now?”In 2010 alone, there were an estimated 5.4 million police-reported traffic crashes in the United States. Although you do your best to drive responsibly and defensively , it’s still smart to know what to do just in case you end up in an accident.Check on everyone in the crash to see if they have any injuries. This includes making sure you don’t have any serious injuries. Be extremely careful —not all injuries can be seen. If you or anyone in the accident isn’t feeling very good, you should call 911 or any other number your state uses to request immediate help on roadways. Be ready to give the dispatcher the following informationWho? The dispatcher will ask for your name and phone numbers in case you need to provide more information later.What?Tell the dispatcher as much as you can about the emergency —for instance, whether there is a fire, traffic problem, medical emergency, etc.Where?Let the dispatcher know exactly where the emergency is taking place. Give the city, road name, road number, mile markings, direction of travel, traffic signs, and anything else you can think of to help them know how to find you.Make sure you stay on the line until the dispatcher says it’s OK to hang up.38. By telling the story of Alex, the author intends to _____.A. tell us that driving is very dangerousB. introduce the topic of the passageC. tell us how good it is to have a carD. advise us to drive as carefully as possible39. We can learn from the passage that ____.A. in 2010, there were around 540,000 police-reported traffic crashes in the United StatesB. Alex was frightened when his car was hit from behind and he had no idea what to doC. you should call 911 immediately you have a car accident to ensure everyone’s safetyD. if you drive carefully enough, you don’t need to know what to do after a car accident40. The underlined word “dispatcher” in Paragraph Three most probably means “_____”.A. operatorB. doctorC. assistantD. policeman41. What is this passage mainly about?A. How to avoid car accidents.B. The importance of careful driving.C. How to get a driving license.D. What to do after a car accident.(B)In 1980, my great uncle was on the scene during a terrorist attack on the British Embassy. Shots were fired through the window, but my uncle escaped unharmed. His wardrobe wasn’t so lucky. One bullet passed through his jacket. He was left with clothes that bore the scars of the event: a bullet hole that would always remind him of how lucky he was.After an event like this, clothes can adopt a new function as evidence in a personal archaeology. Many of us keep clothes for similar reasons. Clothing is evidence of our personal development. If we were to gather all of the clothes we have ever owned, we could paint a picture of ourselves and how we have become who we are now. The garments would speak about weight loss or gain, changes to our cultural attitudes or wealth. We would also see key moments in our lives marked by the outfits we bought for special occasions. Damage to these clothes may say even more. A rip may be a permanent reminder of an accident; a blood stain may be evidence of a fight.We have garments that remind us of our most formative experiences, good and bad. Many women keep their wedding dresses, even though they will never wear them again. Some people keep their wedding dresses, even though they will never wear them again. Some people keep school ties or sports uniforms. They are reminders of former lives and lessons learned.Many women keep a few pieces from their maternity wardrobe. These clothes represent their journey towards motherhood, and are particularly poignant connection to the garment, and to memories of meaningful experiences.Sometimes we buy clothes with the clear intention of creating memories. Souvenir clothes are likely never to be worn, but preserve the memory of a holiday in the same way as snapshots or other souvenirs.Whether our memories are good or bad, sentimentality forces us to hang on to these garments. Clothes that are reminders of “past feelings “are “a means of maintaining identity.”And these objects are no longer just clothes; they are artifacts of the lives we have lived, and so to discard them would be an erosion of self.42.The story that the author tells about his uncle is an example of______.A. a lucky escape during a terrorist attackB. a grateful person who always reminds himself how lucky he wasC. a piece of clothing that becomes a reminder of an accidentD. the scars that a terrible experience can leave on a person’s life43. The underline phrase "personal archaeology" can be the study of _____________. .A. the dressing style of a personB. the places that a person has been toC. the cultural attitude of a personD. the past experiences of a person44. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason why we keep our clothes?A. to preserve the memory of a holiday ,B. to paint pictures of ourselvesC. to remind ourselves of the stages in life we've been throughD. to remember the special occasions in our lives45. By saying that clothes are "a means of maintaining identity” the author means _______.A. if we throw away our clothes, we will be confused as to who we areB. we change our identities by changing our clothesC. clothes are objects that record details of our personal history.D. clothes can be reminders of how we have become who we are now(C)Why do we play sports? You might say “to get exercise”and you'd be right.To have fun? That's true, too.But there's more.In fact, there are at least 5 more reasons.According to the Women's Sports Foundation, girls who play sports get a lot more than just fit.Girls who play sports do better in school.You might think that playing sports will take up all your study time.But research shows that gilrs who play sports do better in school than those who don't.Exercise improves learning, memory, and concentration, which can give active girls an advantage in the classroom.Girls who play sports learn teamwork and goalsetting skills.Sports teach valuable life skills.When you work with coaches, trainers, and teammates to win games and achieve goals, you're learning how to be successful.Those skills will serve you well at work and in family life.Sports are good for a girl's health.In addition to being fit and keeping a healthy weight, girls who play sports are also less likely to smoke.And later in life, gilrs who exercise are less likely to get osteoporosis(骨质疏松症).Playing sports improves self-confidence.Girls who play sports feel better about themselves.Why? It builds confidence when you know you can practice, improve, and achieve your goals.Sports are also a feel-good activity because they help girls get in shape, keep a healthy weight, and make new friends.Exercise cuts the pressure.Playing sports can reduce stress and help you feel a little happier.How? The brain chemicals released during exercise improve a person's mood.Friends are another mood-lifter.And being on a team creates tight bonds between friends.It's good to know your teammates will support you-both on and off the field!(Note: Answer the questions or complete the sentences with no more than SIX words.)46.
