Helen Fry’s new book called Quick Cooking has been well written for busy people. It has over 1,000 recipes, from the famous Spanish recipes to Italian recipes. Its photos and drawings are clear. And it’s like those books such as Quick Dressmaking and Quick Gardening. The book has a strong plastic cover. It is easy to find your way around it too. Busy people, notice this! Mrs. Fry tells you how much time you need in order to get each dish ready.Quick Cooking has 4 parts, one for each season. This helps you to use fresh fruit and vegetables when they are cheaper — and, of course, better. There are a lot of exciting ideas from foreign countries, and most of the recipes are easy to follow. For example, there are no fewer than 40 recipes for eggs! Mrs. Fry does not plan complete meals for the “quick cooking”. The beginners will have to find out a lot of interesting things for himself — or herself. It will not be difficult with such a good book.D.Listen to the passage and complete the following sentencesAmusing StoriesHi, everyone. It’s fun time ag ain. Here come some amusing stories which happened in our daily life. I hope they will bring happiness to all of us.The first one: Yesterday Jim fell asleep in his fourth class. When he woke up, he walked to his sixth period class instead of fifth, because he was still sleepy and he thought the fifth class was over. All of his classmates laughed at him when he entered the classroom.The second one: Dick left an invitation on John’s desk telling him to go to a meeting. In fact, there was no meeting. The whole thing was made up. Dick thought it was funny at first because he just made jokes about John. But when he saw John, he felt really sorry about doing it.The third one: Sarah went out for dinner with her parents, and started complaining about how strict her math teacher, Miss Green, was. Then she turned around and saw the math teacher at the table right behind her. She had heard every word!The fourth one: Bob felt awful in a school show. When he was singing in the show, he forgot the words of the song! He had no choice but to stand on the stage. Haha! That’s all for today’s fun time.

Maybe you’ve heard the saying, “A bird with a broken wing will __40__ fly as high.” I’m sure that T.J. Ware, who was caught stealing a year ago, was made to feel this way almost every day at school.At high school, Ware was always making trouble.

Reading:)(30%)(A)Think for a moment about the teachers you have had at school or at university. Which one did you like best? And Why? Were the teachers you liked best also the ones who were the best teachers, in you opinion? Before you read any further, consider for a minute the qualities that make a teacher outstanding(出色).Some very common answers to this question are that teachers need to love their students, that they need to have an expert knowledge of their subjects, and that they should devote themselves completely to their jobs. All of these ideas are, of course, true to a certain extent(程度)but they are perhaps a little too simple.It is impossible for anyone to love everyone they know, and teachers deal with a very large number of students over the years. On the other hand, teachers should certainly be able to make their students feel that they are interested in them as people and in the development of both their characters. A deep knowledge on to the students effectively-a teacher needs to be trained in the skills of teaching. These skills include how to control a class, and so on. Finally, teachers have to devote a lot of time and energy to their work, of course. However, they are also models that their students must follow; so it is important that they should be well-balanced people with interests outside their school work-family, friends, hobbies, etc. A teacher who only lives for work is likely to become too narrow-minded.50. The writer suggests that you think about your teachers at school or university so that_______A. you may remember them betterB. you may select outstanding teachersC. you may learn from outstanding teachersD. you may know the qualities for outstanding teachers51. The writer does not consider it possible for a teacher_______A. to love all the students he has taughtB. to be an example for his students to followC. to have a good command of the subjects he teachesD. to pass the knowledge on to his students effectively52. In the sentence “…teachers should certainly be able to make their stud ents feel that they are interested in them as people …” in the third paragraph, “they” and “them” refers respectively to __________.A. teachers and teachersB. students and teachersC. teachers and studentsD. students and students53. It can be concluded from the passage that_______.A. even if a teacher has a good knowledge of his subjects, he cannot be a good teacher if he doesn’t have the ability to pass that knowledge on to his students.B. it is unnecessary for teachers to spend much time and energy on their work if they do have an expert knowledge of their subjectsC. teachers should be trained to love all of their students they are teaching or have taughtD. most teachers are born with such skills as how to explain an idea clearly(B)In 1974, the price of petrol in Britain rose by 120 percent; cars became expensive to run and train and bus fares increased.People who hadn't used a bicycle since they were children decided that they would buy bicycles.They discovered that cycling could be enjoyable and cheap.Bicycle sales had been falling for many years but suddenly everything changed.In 1975, British people spent more than one million on bicycles.Bicycle traffic increased by 11 percent.Bicycle fans compare the cost of running a car with the cost of running a bicycle.They also say bicycle-riding is a good form of exercise.In towns bicycles can often be faster than cars or buses.The bicyclists can ride through traffic jams and at the end of his journey he doesn't have to look for a parking space.Cycling through the countryside is a real pleasure; the cyclist has time to see things that the motorist, driving at over 100 kilometers an hour, never sees.But in the cities, cycling can be dangerous.You need good concentration(专心)and strong nerves, especially when a truck or a bus is trying to pass you.Since cycling became popular again, there has been an increase in the number of accidents.Cyclists say the answer to the problem is to separate bicycles from other traffic.Stevenage, a new town near London, has a system of “bikeways”, where only bicycles are allowed to travel.However, in most towns, cyclists say, the needs of the bicycle riders are overlooked.Cyclists have formed into “action groups” in many towns in Britain.They want to persuade local councils-who are in charge of the roads and traffic in theirareas-to make sure there are safe facilities(设施)for cyclists.Or, they say, interest in cycling will die.54.Today the Britain want to ride bikes because _________.A.trains and buses are too crowded.B.the cost of riding bikes is much cheaper than that of taking trains or buses.C.there are a lot of thieves on the trains or in the buses.D.the traffic accidents easily happen while people go to work by train or by bus.55.

They had given me all their tests and still they didn’t realize how wrong they are. They said I had a malignant(恶性的), inoperable tumor(肿瘤), about the size of a softball between my left lung and breast bone. Obviously, this couldn’t be. I was only 67, at the start of the golden years. Yet, they said, the thing had been quietly growing inside my chest for a year or more.Next, they asked questions about my family history, my illness, and operations. Then came the big one: Did I smoke? For how long? I had never added it up before. From a start at age 17, I had been smoking averaging a carton(条)a week. That habit, most doctors agree, is the cause of some 80 percent of lung cancer. “We think we can give some time. However, in your case there is no cure.” Dr. Robert Putuys said kindly. With my family’s longevity record. I shall live into my 80’s.But now I was told to have about a 50/50 chance of making it six months. Fifteen years lost. Each of my 520,000 cigarettes cost me more than 15 minutes of life, each carton more than two days. I would have to kick the habit.My cigarettes lay on the bedside table. they were always ready to be companion During college stress, wartime anxiety, complicated family situations and career pressure, I had turned to them for relief. But now. I realized with surprise, they meant nothing to me. So don’t be discouraged f you’re a smoker. Keep on smoking, enjoy it. You’ll break the habit easily if you get cancer. And you will stop it, friend, you surely will.58. In the sentence “I had never added it up before”, “It” refer to _______.A. the number of cigarettesB. the question asked by doctorsC. the time of his smoking experienceD. the disease he suffered from before59.

The tone of the writer in the last paragraph is being _________.A. happy and carefreeB. sad and humorousC. nervous and anxiousD. painful and desperate61. It can be inferred from the passage that _________.A.since the writer has enjoyed smoking for so long, he can never give if upB.most of heavy smokers like the writer will suffer from lung cancer sooner or laterC.the writer is determined to give up smoking once he is out of hospital.D.the writer suggests you enjoy smoking while you are young for cigarettes can be your best.(D)The more women and minorities make their way into the ranks of management the more they seem to want to talk about things formerly judged to be best left unsaid. The newcomers also tend to see office matters with a fresh eye. In the process sometimes coming up with critical analyses of the forces that shape everyone experience in the organization.Consider the novel views of Harvey Coleman of Atlanta on the subject of getting ahead. Cole man is black. He spent 11 years with IBM; half of them working in management development, and now serves as a consultant, to the likes of AT & Coca-Cola. Prudential and Merch Coleman says that based on what he' s seen at big companies, he weighs the different elements that make for long-term career success as follows: performance counts a mere 10%; image 30%; and exposure, a full 60%.Coleman concludes that excellent job performance is so common these days that while doing your work well may win you pay increases, it won' t secure you the big promotion. He finds that advancement more often depends on how many people know you and your work, and how high up they are.Ridiculous beliefs? Not to many people, especially many women and members of minority races who like Coleman feel that the scales (障眼物)have dropped from their eyes. "Women and blacks in organizations work under false beliefs," says Kaleel Jamison, a New York-based management consultant who helps corporations deal with these issues. "They think that if you work hard, you'll get a head--that someone in authority will reach down and give you a promotion." She adds, "Most women and blacks are so frightened that people will think they' ye gotten ahead because of their sex or color that they play down their visibility(能见度)." Her advice to those folks: learn the ways that white males have traditionally used to find their way into the spotlight.(聚光灯照明圈)62.To achieve success in your career,the most important factor, according to the passage, is to_______. A.let your superiors know how good you areB.show a favorable image to the people around youC.work as a consultant to your superiorsD.perform well your tasks given by your superiors63.The reason why women and blacks play down their visibility is that they________.A.know that someone in authority will reach down and give them a promotionB.don't want people to think that their promotions are due to sex or colorC.don't want to give people the impression that they work under false beliefsD.believe they can get promoted by reason of their sex or color64.The best title for this passage would be________.A.Role of Women and Minorities in ManagementB.The Importance of Being VisibleC.Job Performance and AdvancementD.Sex and Career Success第Ⅱ卷Ⅰ.Tenses (10%)1.Our school soccer team __________ (win) every match so far this year, but they still have three more games to play.2.we won’t go for a picnic if it __________ (rain) tomorrow.3.Once __________ (ask) in the classroom, you should stand up and answer the teacher’s questions.4.His father __________ (tell) that he was not allowed to park his car on the playground.5.Don’t let those who are not ol d enough __________ (enter) the game room.6.Something has __________ (do) to stop the tough guys bullying the small boys.7.I am considering __________ (make) a new plan for our trip.8.The theory __________ (prove) to us that earthquakes can be forecast.9.I tried my best to do what I could __T________ (help) those poor people.10.I’ve never thought that the silk __________ (sell) so well especially in the West.Ⅱ.

Each word canIf you are a modern art lover, you should be sure to drop by the Saatchi Gallery during your visit to London. The 41 gallery was opened by Charles Saatchi, a British art collector famous for founding the Saatchi and Saatchi advertising agency with his brother. It moved from its old 42 in St. John’s Wood to its new home in County Hall near the Thames in the springof 2003.Anyone who has heard reports in the past of the often shocking but always thought-provoking (激发) works on 43 at the Saatchi Gallery will not be disappointed when visiting the gallery’s new location. Along with the exhibits of new British artists, the gallery still includes the works of Damien Hirst, the Chapman brothers, and Tracy Emin in its permanent 44 .Of the artworks, one can see in the Saatchi Gallery, Hirst’s works are probably the most well-known. Hirst’s work first made headlines in the early 1990s when he45 art from dead animals.Along with Hirst, the Chapman brothers, Dinos and Jake, also owe a certain amount of their fame to the Saatchi Gallery. It was through Saatchi that these two brothers came to 46 attention. At the gallery, visitors can see the brothers’ vision of Hell, made from 30, 000 plastic toy soldiers.Another artist 47 at the gallery who has grabbed headlines with her art is Tracy Emin. In 1998, Emin gave rise to argument when she sold her 48 , unmade bed to Saatchi as a work of art titled My Bed at £150, 000.Are any of these works really art? That is a question you will have to answer for yourself when you visit the Saatchi Gallery. Charles Saatchi himself says, “I don’t have any ground rules for 49 art. Sometimes you look and don’t feel very comfortable with it—but that doesn't tell you very much. It doesn't 50 reveal much about the quality of the work.”III.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)I am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.I no longer consider myself the center of universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I was a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows(誓约)mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.So here’s what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion, the bigger paycheck, the larger house.Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who loves you. And remember that love is not leisure, it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking for granted.It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned.66. How did the writer form her view of life?A. Through social experienceB. By learning from her friendsC.

This passage is written for ______.A. parentsB. childrenC. the salesmanD. the boss(C)Against the supposition that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as a result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone(臭氧)levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.“We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.73. According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may ______.A. result in a warming climateB. cause the forest fires to occur more frequentlyC. lead to a longer fire seasonD. protect the forests and the environment there74. Earlier studies about northern forest fires ______.A. analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climateB. indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphereC. suggest that people should take measures to protect environmentD. suggest that the fires will speed up climate warming75. The underlined phrase “soak up” in the last paragraph most probably means ______.A. releasedB. absorbedC. createdD. disturbed76. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may ______.A. warm the climate as the supposition goesB. allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climateC. destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea iceD. help to gain more energy rather than release more energy(D)Is Positive Thinking Powerful?The $11 billion self-help industry is built on the idea that you should turn negative thoughts like “I never do anything right” into positive ones like “I can succeed”. But was the positive thinking advocate Norman Vincent Peale right? Is there power in positive thinking?Researchers in Canada just published a study in Psychological Science that says trying to get people to think more positively can actually have the opposite effect: it can simply stress how unhapp y they are. The study’s authors, Joanne Wood and John Lee of the University of Waterloo and Elaine Perunovic of the University of New Brunswick, begin by using older research showing that when people get feedback (反馈) which they believe is overly positive, they actually feel worse, not better. If you tell your friend who is not very clever that he has the potential of an Einstein, you’re just underlining his faults. In the 1990s, a team including psychologist Joel Cooper of Princeton conducted an experiment. The participants were asked to write essays opposing financial support for the disabled, expressing little sympathy for them. When these participants were later praised for their sympathy, they felt even worse about what they had written.In this experim ent, Wood, Lee and Perunovic measured 68 students’ self-respect. The participants were then asked to write down their thoughts and feelings for four minutes. Every 15 seconds, one group of students heard a bell. When it rang, they were supposed to tell themselves, “I am lovable.” Those with low self-respect didn’t feel better after the forced self-approval. In fact, their feelings turned significantly worse than those of members of the control group, who weren’t urged to think positive thoughts.The study provides support for newer forms for psychotherapy (心理治疗) that urge people to accept their negative thoughts and feelings rather than fight them. In the fighting, we not only often fail but can make things worse. Meditation (静思) techniques, on the contrary, can teach people to realize their shortcomings from a larger, more realistic perspective. Call it the power of negative thinking.77. What is the finding of the Canadian researchers?A. There can be no simple solutions to psychological problems.B. Encouraging positive thinking may do harm to people.C. The power of positive thinking is limited.D. Unhappy people cannot think positively.78. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably means ______.A. you are pointing out the mistakes he has madeB. you are not taking his mistakes seriously enoughC. you are stressing the fact that he is not intelligentD. you are not trying to make him feel better about his faults79. What do we learn from the experiment of Wood, Lee and Perunovic?A. Self-approval can bri ng a positive change to one’s feelings.B. People with low self-respect seldom write down their true feelings.C. It is important for people to continually improve their self-respect.D. Forcing people to think positive thoughts may lower their self-respect.80. It can be learned from the last paragraph that ______.A. people can avoid making mistakes through meditationB. different people tend to have different ways of thinkingC. meditation may prove to be a good form of psychotherapyD. the effects of positive thinking differ from person to person(E)Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions and complete the statements in the fewest possible words.An addiction(瘾)is an activity or substance we are eager to experience repeatedly, and for which we are willing if necessary to pay a price. Common addictions involve alcohol, cigarettes, food, drugs, gambling, etc. This article discusses the concepts which can be helpful in coping with addictive behavior.Relatively minor addictions, such as watching too much television, or lying in bed on weekend mornings, are often not even considered addictions, because the price paid for engaging in them is not high. On the other hand, we tend to use the term “addict” to describe the person who, at least in the eyes of others, continues to be addicted in a behavior long after it has become clear that the substantial price being paid was not worth the benefit. The individual who has lost career, house, family and friends because of cocaine (可卡因) use, but is unwilling to consider stopping is an unfortunate example.Negative addictions range from those with very minor negative consequences, to those as serious as the cocaine addict just mentioned, with much area in between. Although it is not necessarily true that a negative addiction grows stronger over time, yet a constant level of addictive behavior (e.g., overspending $ 200 a week ) can lead to an increasing level of negative consequences.You may be surprised to learn that addictions can also be considered positive. Positive addictions are those in which the benefits outweigh the price. A common example would be the habit of regular exercise. The price of membership in a gym, the time involved and any clothing expense is outweighed by the benefits of better health, energy, self-confidence and appearance. As with negative addictions, positive addictions may not get stronger over time, and there is a broad range of how much benefit is actually obtained.What is common to both positive and negative addictions is the urge to engage in the addictive behavior, and the satisfaction that is felt when the urge is acted upon. The urge is a state of tension and expectation that is experienced uncomfortably as a desire for the substance or activity. Because we experience relief when the urge is acted upon, there is an increased likelihood that we will act on the urge again.81. What does the passage mainly talk about?___________________________________________________________________________. 82. We use the term “addict” to describe a person when he or she goes on ________even though he or she knows it is not worthwhile.83. Why is exercising in the gym considered to be a positive addiction?___________________________________________________________________________. 84. How do people feel when the urge is acted on?___________________________________________________________________________.

But ever since then the little boy has set about learning how to make money by selling drinks, delivering newspapers and buying stocks. The American had already earned $9,000 (equal to $90,000 today) by the time he graduated from high school.And this month the 78-year-old man, who earned his fortune by making a lot of sound investment in the stock market, took the place of Microsoft founder, Bill Gates, as the world’s richest man. Gates’ worth declined $1.5 billion to $55.5 billion in 33 days after the recent financial storm, according to ForbesMagazine.Buffett, the only son of a stockbroker, was ready to think outside the box to develop his business from a very early age. At 8, he went to golf courses collecting and selling the used balls. At 11 when he sold soda pop door-to-door with a friend, the pair collected lids on streets to judge which flavor was the most popular.As a paper boy during high school, Buffett delivered two competitor papers, so that even when customers canceled one of the subscriptions, he could still make a profit from the other. With his paper delivery savings, Buffett bought 162,000 square meters of farmland and collected rent. Young Buffett stepped into the stock market at 11 but earned only $5. The experience taught him one of the virtues in investing, patience.After graduating from university, Buffett started his venture with stocks with his childhood earnings and money from friends. He researched the stocks and just bought those of solid companies that were undervalued and inexpensive at the time. By sticking to companies such as American Express and Coca-Cola, Buffett has become rich.“Learning is important to Buffett’s success. He is a learning machine who can spend his entire day reading. He keeps learning from books, street smarts and investigation, from both success and failure. In this way, he over-achieved his aptitude (能力).” said Charlie Munger, his longtime business partner.49, Which of the following questions has not been discussed in the text?A. How do other people view Buffett?B. What is Buffett9s way to invest?C. How has Buffett dealt with difficulties m his life?D. How did Buffett make money and realize his dream50.

These trees are then sold once her wedding date is set, and the money from the sales will be used for her dowry(嫁妆).Friends of the couple also create a wedding newspaper, which is filled with pictures and sroties of the new couple.The newspaper is sold at the wedding and the money helps pay for the honeymoon.Usually, the ceremony is held at the city hall.Then, there will be a party the next day. Many friends bring old dishes to the party to break, believing it will bring good luck.Czech0slovakian (捷克斯洛伐克的)ceremoniesBefore the wedding, the bride’s friends traditionally plant a tree in her yard and decorate it with colored ribbons and painted eggshells, because, according to an old story, the bride will live as long as the tree.53.In Germany, the purpose of making a wedding nespaper is ____________.A.to inform the couple’s friendsB.to raise money for the honeyoonC.to record the wedding ceremonyD.to ask for the pemission of the pastor54.In Czech0slovakian,____________.A.sereral trees are planted by the parents when their girls are bornB.sereral trees are planted by the bride’s friends in the groom’s yardC.A tree is planted before wedding to wish the bride a long lifeD.A tree is planted on the day of the ceremony55.Which of the following is not true?a.Jamaican brides are forbidden to wear a red dress.b.Islamic wedding ceremonies may last for a few days.c.In Islamic, a contract has to be signed before the couple is declared husband and wife.d.In Germany, many friends bring old dishes to the wedding ceremony.A.abB.cdC. bcD.ad56.Where is the passage probabaly come from?A.A research paperB.A cultural websiteC.A short story collectionD.An official journal.Keys:BCDBCHave you ever suddenly felt that someone you knew was in trouble-and was he? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP(超感觉的知觉).ESP stands for Extrasensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.Here's an example. A woman was ironing clothes. Suddenly she screamed, "My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair!" Just then, a telegram came.The woman's father died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair.There are thousands of stories like this one on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what's behind these strange mental messages. Here's another example-one of hundreds of dreams that have cometrue.A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and a carriage came by. The driver said, "There's room for one more." The man felt the driver seemed dead, so he ran away. The next day, when the man was getting on a crowded bus, the bus driver said, "There's room for one more.Then the man saw that the driver's face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn't get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!Some people say stories like this are coincidences. Others, including some scientists, say that ESP is real. From studies of ESP, we may someday learn more about the human mind.57.The example of the man in the passage shows an ability to_______A. Avoid traffic accidentsB. Tell the good from the bad manC. Know about events that are happening some distance awayD. Know that a danger will actually happen later on58.

In the last paragraph, the underlined word "coincidences" probably means ______.A. things that may not happenB. things that happen in a dreamC. things that must happenD. things that happen by accident60. This passage is mainly about ______.A. the human dreamB. the sixth senseC. the human mindD. a crowded busKeys:DACD(D)Never go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice. If you go shopping for food before lunchtime, you’ll probably buy more than you plan to. Unfortunately, however, just this advice isn’t enough for consumers these days. Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy things at the store. First, you check the weekly newspaper ads. Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In other words, don’t buy anything just because it’s cheaper than usual! “New and Improved!”or “All Natural”on the front of a package influence you. Instead, read the list of ingredients(contents) on the back. Third, compare prices: that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand.Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages. These products are cheaper because producers don’t spend much money on packing or advertising. The quality, however, is usually as good as the quality of well-known name brands. In the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous. Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. Although these stores aren’t very attractive, and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms, not only are the prices low, but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high-priced department stores.Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials, but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology behind the ads. In other words, well-informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions: Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial, or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? With the answers to these questions, consumers can make a wise choice.61. All th e following statements are true about the phrase “ordinary items” in Paragraph 2 except ____.A. ordinary items never say “New and Improved” or “All Natural”B. the quality of ordinary items is usually as good as that of famous brandsC. producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary itemsD. ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brands62. What does the writer think about ads?A. They are believable.B. They are attractive.C. They are full of misinformation.D. They are helpful to consumers.63. One of the author’s suggestions to consumers is ____.A. to make use of adsB. not to buy items with words like “New and Improved” or “All Natural”C. to buy high quality items such as famous brands after lunchD. to buy any ordinary items instead of famous brands64,The authors main purpose of writing the passage is to tell shoppers______A. to buy ordinary items instead of famous brandsB. to buying clothing in discpunt clothing storeC.how to make proper decisions while shoppingKeys:ADAC第II卷I.Conplete the sentences:1.Body language is ________________________________________(你站和坐的方式)2.A girl came over to Simon ______________________(毫不犹豫地)and gave him a big smile.3.The well-dressed lady _____________________________(瞥了他们一眼)and walked over to Debbie.4.In many Asian cultures, people avoid eye contact when talking people_________________(掌权的)5.___________________________________(盯着他人看) is considered rude and should be avoided.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.How can English teachers accelerate the language learning of their students? One way is to teach students how to learn more effectively and efficiently. Learning strategies are " Procedures or 41 that learners can use to facilitate a learning task. " And 42 students of English in learning strategies can help them become better learners. In addition, skill in using learning strategies assists students in becoming 43 , confident learners. Finally, students become more 44 as they begin to understand the relationship between their use of strategies and success in learning English.Students need to develop an awareness of the learning process and strategies that lead to success. Students who 45 on their own thinking are more likely to engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, finding solutions to problems 46 , and evaluating themselves upon task completion. These activities may be difficult for students 47 to having a teacher who solves all their learning problems and is the 48 judge of their progress.Teachers need to encourage students to rely more on themselves. Because learning strategies are mental 49 with few observable manifestations, teachers need to find ways to make the strategies as concrete as possible. When students are able to use the strategies their teachers have taught them, and to do so without prompting, then they need to 50 new strategies, new applications, and new opportunities for self-regulated learning.III. Reading ComprehensionSection AMany people think that listening is a passive business. It is just the 51 one. Listening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work. It is because they do not realize this, or because they are not 52 to do the work, that most people do not listen well.Listening well also requires total 53 upon someone else. An essential part of listening well is the rul e known as ‘bracketing’. Bracketing includes the temporary giving up or 54 of your own prejudices and desires, to experience as far as possible someone else’s world from the inside, stepping into his or her shoes. 55 , since listening well involves bracketing, it also involves a temporary 56 ofthe other person. Sensing this acceptance, the speaker will seem quite willing to 57 up the inner part of his or her mind to the listener. True communication is under way and the energy required for listening well is so great that it can be 58 only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growth.Most of the time we 59 this energy. Even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships that we are listening well, what we are usually doing is listening 60 . Often we have a prepared list in mind and wonder, as we listen, how we can achieve certain 61 results to get the conversation over as quickly as possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us. Many of us are far more interested in talking than in listening, or we simply 62 to listen to what we don’t want to hear.It wasn’t until toward the end of my doctor career that I have found the knowledge that one is being truly listened to is frequently therapeutic(有疗效的) In about a quarter of the patients I saw, 63 improvement was shown during the first few months of psychotherapy, before any of the 64 of problems had been uncovered or explained. There are several reasons for this phenomenon, but chief among th em, I believe, was the patient’s 65 that he or she was being truly listened to, often for the first time in years, and for some, perhaps for the first time ever.51.A. positive B. opposite C. same D. wrong52.A. reluctant B. generous C. willing D. considerate53.A. dependence B. influence C. decision D. concentration54.A. setting aside B. getting over C. noting down D. sticking to55.A.

A. purpose B. sense C. conclusion D. responsibilitySection BDirections:Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, and C. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The year was 1993 and the Detroit Tigers were playing the New York Yankees. When my son began dropping gentle hints that a game would take place at Tiger Stadium on Mother’s Day that year, I already knew who they were playing with! "Hey Mom, would you like to go to see the Tigers play the Yankees?" My senior high son asked with a playful look. I just smiled.There had been a lot of talk about a new stadium in place of the one that stood proudly on the corner of Michigan and Trumbull in Detroit. As I sat in the seating section, I wondered how the old place could actually become a thing of the past. It was so alive; the stadium was full of watchers and the excitement with two good ball teams, the smell of popcorn.The announcer recognized all Mother’s and each one received a gift which I still have today.Don Mattingly was a favorite ball player of our sons and he was one of the many players that made up the team that beat the Tiger’s that May Day. While we drank our favorite soft drink, we watched the guy withthe number 23 shirt hit a home run during the game. The fans went wild. The Yankees won 11 to 2.Part of the excitement comes from a visit to the old ballpark . While the organ music played, everyone stood and sang Take Me Out To the Ballgame. It was part of the fun about a trip to the ballpark; and it didn’t matter who you were cheering for.The last game played at Tiger Stadium was in 1999 against the Kansas City Royals. We had moved to South Carolina in 1997, but my son was working in Detroit. The old stadium is still standing; I guess they just didn’t have the heart to tear down a piece of history. What I didn’t realize at the time was that it would be the last game I would attend with our now grown son together.66.What caan we infer from the first paragraph?A.The writer was a fan of the ball game.B.The ball game took place on the May Day.C.Her son was one of the ball players.D.The Detroit Tigers would lose the game.67.What did the writer mainly want to tell us in the second paragraph?A.People were all expecting a new stadium.B.The old stadium was really too crowded.C.More people were interested in the game.D.The writer liked the old stadium very much.68.According to the passage, Don Mattingly_______A.was the best player in the TigersB. belonged to the YankeesC was the writer’s favorite ball player D. wore the number 32 shirt in the game69. What happened to the Tiger Stadium after the game in 1999?A.It was torn down.B. It was used for other purposes.C.It was still used for the game. D, The music was often played there.(B)"Well, I finally did it. I finally decided to enter the digital age and get a cell phone. My kids have been annoying me and the last straw was when my car broke down, and I was stuck by the highway for an hour before someone stopped to help. But when I went to the cell phone store, I almost changed my mind. The phones all have cameras, computers and a "global-positioning" something or other that's supposed to spot me from space. Goodness, all I want to do is to be able to talk to my grandkids! The people at the store weren't much help. They couldn't understand why someone wouldn't want a phone the size of a postage stamp. And the rate plans! They were confusing, and expensive ... and the contract (合同) lasted for two years! I'd almost given up until a friend told me about her new Jitterbug phone. Now, I have the convenience and safety of being about to stay in touch -- with a phone I can actually use."Affordable plans that I can understand -- and no contract to sign (签订)! Unlike other cell phones, Jitterbug has plans that make sense. Why should I pay for minutes I'm never going to use? And if I do talk more than I plan, I won't find myself with no minutes like my friend who has a prepaid phone. Best of all, there is no contract to sign — so I'm not locked in for years at a time.

On the monthly basis of 100 minutes, the Jitterbug weekly rate is about ________.A. $3.75B. $4.99C. $14. 99D. $19.9972. An advantage of Jitterbug mentioned in the passage is ________.A. its discount price with a free giftB. its reasonable rate plans without a contractC. its "global-positioning" system with 911 accessD. its good customer service all over the world73. The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A. tell a customer's story of JitterbugB. provide two ways to order JitterbugC. give a brief introduction of JitterbugD. attract potential customers to Jitterbug(C)Energy independence. It has a nice ring to it. Doesn’t it? If you think so, you’re not alone, because energy independence has been the dream of American president for decades, and never more so than in the past few years, when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession.“Energy independence” and its rhetorical (修辞的) companion “energy security” are, however, slippery concepts that are rarely though through. What is it we want independence from, exactly? Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil. But there are reasons that we buy all that old from elsewhere.The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running. Yes, there is a trickle(涓涓细流)of bio-fuel available, and more may become available, but most bio-fuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction.Second, Americans have basically decided that they don’t really want to produce all their own oil. They value the environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad. Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection. To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports?Third, there are benefits to trade. It allows for economic efficiency, and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do, we benefit. And although you don’t read about this much, the United States is also a large exporter of oil products, selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries.There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and, in fact, relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy. When that flow is interrupted, we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices, At the same time, we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world.74. According to the passage, energy independence will make America__________.A. ensure international securityB. realize everyone’s dreamC. bring oil prices downD. sound very attractive75. What does the author think of bio-fuels?A. keep America’s economy running healthily.B. do not provide a sustainable energy supply.C. prove to be a good alternative to petroleum.D. can be produced in large quantity in a short time76. Why does American depend on oil imports a lot?A. It wants to expand its storage of crude oil.B. It wants to keep its own environment undamagedC. Its own oil reserves are quickly being used up.D. Its own oil production falls short of demand.77. The author’s purpose in writing the passage is_________.A. To arouse Americans’ awareness of the ener gy crisis.B. To explain the increase of international oil trade.C. To justify America’s dependence on oil imports.D. To stress the importance of energy conservation.Section C (8分)Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Much time and effort has been devoted to researching the mental health benefits of flexible work environments, but can the ability to leave work early to watch your son’s soccer game, or arrive at the office a bit later in the morning in order to see to some personal matters, have broader physical health benefits besides making you feel a bit less tired?According to new research published in the Cochrane Library's Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, it seems so. In a review of 10 previous studies examining the health effects of flexible work conditions for more than 16,000 people, researchers from the U.K.'s Durham University and University of Newcastle, as well as the University of Montreal, found that flexible work schedules, for instance, when employees can shift their starting times, were associated with improvements in a person’s overall health. And, perhaps unsurprisingly, in all of the studies included in the review, researchers found no evidence for negative effects of more flexible work schedules.This initial analysis was intended to throw light on the potential health benefits of flexible work options, which are increasingly popular throughout Scandinavia, and have recently gained some ground in the U.K. For example, last April, the British government implemented a policy that allowed parents of children ages six and under to request flexible work arrangements to include parents of children ages 16 and younger. In the U.S., the phenomenon is a bit slower to catch on. Yet, the economic slowdown of recent years may have contributed to growth in workplace flexibility —as companies unable to reward employees with bonuses or raises may turn to other forms of compensation, Reuters reported early last year.Original analysis too, of course, indicated the benefits of flexible work environments toward positivemental health outcomes. And while these latest findings are promising, the researchers stress that more study is vital to understanding the detailed relationship between flexible work and improved health outcomes. To truly grasp the benefits of flexible working conditions, the researchers say, additional study analyzing health outcomes among a wide range of workers —from high-ranking executives to hourly employees —is critical, which helps to gain a deeper understanding of the issue, and to shape future workplace policy.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS)78.

According to the passage, _______________________________________________ is the possiblereason for less workplace flexibility in the United States.80.

Reading:)(30%)(A)Think for a moment about the teachers you have had at school or at university. Which one did you like best? And Why? Were the teachers you liked best also the ones who were the best teachers, in you opinion? Before you read any further, consider for a minute the qualities that make a teacher outstanding(出色).Some very common answers to this question are that teachers need to love their students, that they need to have an expert knowledge of their subjects, and that they should devote themselves completely to their jobs. All of these ideas are, of course, true to a certain extent(程度)but they are perhaps a little too simple.It is impossible for anyone to love everyone they know, and teachers deal with a very large number of students over the years. On the other hand, teachers should certainly be able to make their students feel that they are interested in them as people and in the development of both their characters. A deep knowledge on to the students effectively-a teacher needs to be trained in the skills of teaching. These skills include how to control a class, and so on. Finally, teachers have to devote a lot of time and energy to their work, of course. However, they are also models that their students must follow; so it is important that they should be well-balanced people with interests outside their school work-family, friends, hobbies, etc. A teacher who only lives for work is likely to become too narrow-minded.50.

They said I had a malignant(恶性的), inoperable tumor (肿瘤), about the size of a softball between my left lung and breast bone. Obviously, this couldn’t be. I was only 67, at the start of the golden years. Yet, they said, the thing had been quietly growing inside my chest for a year or more.Next, they asked questions about my family history, my illness, and operations. Then came the big one: Did I smoke? For how long? I had never added it up before. From a start at age 17, I had been smoking averaging a carton(条)a week. That habit, most doctors agree, is the cause of some 80 percent of lung cancer. “We think we can give some time. However, in your case there is no cure.” Dr. Robert Putuys said kindly. With my family’s longevity record. I shall live into my 80’s.But now I was told to h ave about a 50/50 chance of making it six months. Fifteen years lost. Each of my 520,000 cigarettes cost me more than 15 minutes of life, each carton more than two days. I would have to kick the habit.My cigarettes lay on the bedside table. they were always ready to be companion During college stress, wartime anxiety, complicated family situations and career pressure, I had turned to them for relief. But now. I realized with surprise, they meant nothing to me. So don’t be discouraged f you’re a smoker. Keep on smoking, enjoy it. You’ll break the habit easily if you get cancer.

The newcomers also tend to see office matters with a fresh eye. In the process sometimes coming up with critical analyses of the forces that shape everyone experience in the organization.Consider the novel views of Harvey Coleman of Atlanta on the subject of getting ahead. Cole man is black. He spent 11 years with IBM; half of them working in management development, and now serves as a consultant, to the likes of AT & Coca-Cola. Prudential and Merch Coleman says that based on what he' s seen at big companies, he weighs the different elements that make for long-term career success as follows: performance counts a mere 10%; image 30%; and exposure, a full 60%.Coleman concludes that excellent job performance is so common these days that while doing your work well may win you pay increases, it won' t secure you the big promotion. He finds that advancement more often depends on how many people know you and your work, and how high up they are.Ridiculous beliefs? Not to many people, especially many women and members of minority races who like Coleman feel that the scales (障眼物)have dropped from their eyes. "Women and blacks in organizations work under false beliefs," says Kaleel Jamison, a New York-based management consultant who helps corporations deal with these issues. "They think that if you work hard, you'll get a head--that someone in authority will reach down and give you a promotion." She adds, "Most women and blacks are so frightened that people will think they' ye gotten ahead because of their sex or color that they play down their visibility(能见度)." Her advice to those folks: learn the ways that white males have traditionally used to find their way into the spotlight.(聚光灯照明圈)62.To achieve success in your career,the most important factor, according to the passage, is to_______.A.let your superiors know how good you areB.show a favorable image to the people around youC.work as a consultant to your superiorsD.perform well your tasks given by your superiors63.The reason why women and blacks play down their visibility is that they________.
