My mother, Margaret Feiddman, d ied at the age of 89, and so this is my first Mother’s Day without my mom.In my childhood, my mom appeared to be a typical suburban housewife of her generation. She sewed many of my sisters’ clothes, including both of their wedding dresses and boy’s suits for me. And on the side, she won several national bridge tournaments(桥牌锦标赛).My mom left many indelible marks on me. The first was to never lose heart and to be independent. My dad died suddenly when I was 19. My mom worked hard for a couple of years. But in1975, I won a scholarship to study in Britain and my mom surprised us all by announcing that she decided to go with me. When I met difficulties, she always said: “You’re a man, so never lose heart, never be knocked down, and try your best to pursue(追求) your dreams.”My mom’s other big influence on me is a sense of optimism. She had taken her knocks. But every time life knocked her down, she got up and kept on marching forward, encouraged by the saying that pessimists(悲观者) are usually right, optimists are usually wrong, but most great changes are made by optimists.How I wish to listen to my mother’s words, and give my best regards on this Mother’s Day, but I have no chance now! My best friends, treasure(珍惜)your mother’s love!56.The author mentioned the advertisement to ___.A.show he’s tired of the advertisementsB.explain he missed his mother very muchC.make you believe that he was very kindD.urge the readers to buy the present for their mothers57.What experience of the author’s mo ther surprised the author?A.That she volunteered to go to Britain with her son.B.That she gained knowledge all by herself.C.That she did all the housework by herself.D.That she won several national bridge tournaments.58.What dose the underlined wor d “indelible” in the 3rd paragraph probably mean?A.be out of control B.be easy to rememberC.be destroyed easily D.be impossible to forget59.We can know about the author’s mother that_____.A.She encouraged the author to pursue his dreamsB.she felt very lonely in her late lifeC.She never received a present from her childrenD.she passed away before the author’s father60.Which can be the best title for the passage?A.My Great Mother B.Mother and IC.Treasure Mother’ s Love D.Mother’s Day MadnessBLisa is ten years old. She is disabled because she has brain damage. She could not do even the simplest thing until a year ago. She could not comb her hair or feed herself. Her parents loved her. And they treated her like a baby.Mr. Ching has a daughter and a son. They are both grown. They live far from their father. Mr. Cling felt lonely.

Therapy is the treatment of a disease or disorder. It helps the children overcome their handicaps.Mr. Cling became a foster grandparent to Lisa when she was nine years old. At first, Lisa was shy. She was afraid because Mr. Cling was a stranger. But he came to see her every day, gradually she began to trust him. At last, Lisa let Mr. Cling do things for her.Cling speaks for most foster grandparents when he say, “We all benefit. The handicapped children benefit because we help them live more useful lives.

The Greatest Happiness!CTo find how the name Canada came about we must go back to the 16th century. At that time, the French dreamed of disclosing and controlling more land, of expanding(扩展)trade beyond(超出) their borders and of spreading their faith(信仰) across the world .In 1535, Francois I ,King of France, ordered a navigator (航海家) named Jacques Cartier to explore(探险) the New World and search for a passage to India.Cartier first arrived at the Gulf of the St. Lawrence, which he wanted to explore. He did not know what to expect but he hoped that this Gulf was just an arm of the ocean between two islands. If it was, he would soon be on his way to the Far East. So he sailed upstream along the St. Lawrence River. However, instead or reaching Asia he arrived at Quebec or Stadacona, as the Indians called it. It was at this point that the term “ Canada” entered the country’s history. Apparently the word “Canada” came from an Indian work “Kanata”, which means comm unity or village. Cartier first used it when he referred to Stadacona or Quebec. What a huge “ village” Canada is!66.In the early sixteenth century , the King of France ordered Cartier to ______A. f ind the new worldB. b uild an entirely new countryC. g o and visit the American IndiansD. g et more information about America and find a way to Asia67.

If you haven’t, you should have. It’s here, it’s growing and it’s having an influence on our life. Surf the Internet and you’ll find blogs everywhere. A blog, shortened from “weblog”, is a public Internet journal written by one person or a group of people. It is a website in which a person or a group can place news, personal thoughts, text, photos, video or audio files, or links upon which visitors can comment. A blog lets you post on the Internet without having to know web design or be technical. You are given an environment to make dated entries on the topic of your choice which are “publish ed”, so other people can read them.Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called “blogging”. Blogging has revolutionized Internet publishing in the last several years because it gives everyone with Internet access the opportunity to become an online writer. Objects, such as “text and photos” in a blog can be called “blog posts”, “posts”, or “entries”. The person who posts these entries is called a “blogger”. Now, somewhere around the world, a blog is created almost every 6 seconds. Because it’s great potential, Bill Gates views it as important as e-mail, BBS, and MSN. He’s trying to make blogs the important tools for future business communications.71. A blog is .A. a commentB. an Internet journalC. a designD. a link72.

一卷 I. 阅读理解(每小题2分,满分30分) A In the past, many disabled Chinese people led very restricted (受限制的) lives. They had little chance to find work or support themselves. But their situation has improved dramatically over recent decades. In the past five years, the government has been stepping up efforts to help employ disabled people. Huge investments have been made in training, and many disabled people have found jobs and become financially independent. When Wu Zihe was growing up, she was like a prisoner in her home. Having a job was something she could only dream about. But now she is famous for her art. Wu is working on a landscape. She said, “I can earn 30 or 40 yuan for paintings like this, if they are sold in groups. If I sell them separately, I can get about 100 yuan. It only takes me one day to finish one painting, so I can earn 1,000 to 2,000 yuan a month.” Wu Zihe practices knife-drawing, which originated in her hometown Dunhua. If one has the eyes, the brain and hands, it takes about a year to learn the basic techniques. Dunhua government’s official Zhang Chunhua said, “We think it suits disabled people very well. So the government spent 10 million yuan to set up this knife- painting training center for them.” Training in the center is free. Even the materials are provided by the government. Since last1。

Electronic commerce (trade) is growing fast and will s oon bring people more choices. There will, however, be a cost : protecting the consumer from being cheated will be harder. Many governments therefore want to apply street regulations t o the electronic world. But politicians would be wiser to see cy berspace as a basis for a new era of corporate self-regulation. Consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything from the st ability of the banks to the safety of the drugs or their rights to r efund when goods are faulty. But governments cannot enforc e national laws on businesses whose only presence is on the screen. Even in a country where a clear right to compensation exists, the on-line customer inTokyo, say, can hardly go to New York to get a refund (退款) for a clothes purchase.One answer is for government to cooperate more: to recogniz e each other’s rules. But that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules. And plenty of countries have rules too f anciful for sober countries to accept. There is, however, anoth er choice. Let the electronic businesses do the regulation the mselves. They do, after all, have a self-interest in doing so.In electronic commerce, a reputation for honest dealing will be a valuable competitive asset. Governments, too, may compet e to be trusted. For instance, customers ordering medicines o n- line may prefer to buy from the United States because they trust the rigorous screening of the Food and Drug Administrat ion; or they may decide that the FDA’s rules are too strict, and buy from instead.Customers will still need to use their judgment, but precisely b ecause the technology is new, electronic shoppers are likely f or a while to be a lot more cautious than customers of the nor mal sort. And the new technology will also make it easier for t hem to complain when a company lets them down. In this way , at least, the advent(出现) of cyberspace may argue for fewer consumer protection la ws, not more.41. According to the author, what will be the best policy for ele ctronic commerce?A. Self-regulation by the business. B. Strict consumer protectionlaws.C. Close international cooperation.D. Government prote ction.42. In case an electronic shopper bought faulty goods from a f oreign country, whatcould he do?A. Refuse to pay for the purchase.B. Go to the seller an d ask for a refund.C. Appeal to consumer protection law.D. Complain about it on the Internet.43. In the author’s view, businesses would place a high emph asis on honest dealing because in the electronic world ______ _.A. international cooperation would be much more frequentB. consumers could easily seek government protectionC. a good reputation is a great advantage in competitionD. it would be easy for consumers to complain44. We can infer from the passage that in licensing new drugs the FDA in the is______.A. very quickB. very cautiousC. very slowD. rather careless45. If a customer buys something that does not meet his expe ctation, what is the advantage of dealing through electronic co mmerce over the present normal one?A.It will be easier for him to return the goods he is not satisfi ed with.B.It will be easier for him to attain the refund from the seller. C.It will be easier for him to get his complaints heard by othe r consumers.D.It will be easier for him to complain about this to the gover nment.BI was going to die in Antarctica,I was certain.An image of my ice-covered body,pale and lifeless.filled my mind as I glanced around.In all d irections the empty wilderness of Antarctica stretched away fr om me.The only feature on the landscape was the division b etween snow and sky. I gazed sadly at my team.They were rapidly disappearing over the horizon.I was leading an expedition(探险)attempting to reach the south pole.The team was made u p of ordinary women from all around the world—from Jamaica,India,Singapore and Cyprus—many of whom had never seen snow,or spent a night in a tent.before we set off.Our aim was to be the most international a11-female team to reach the South Pole.As I watched.the rest of the team had marched on,unaware that I was not with the team. By the time I realized th at my sledge(雪橇)was firmly trapped,the team were already a long way ahead of me.I called out t o Era, my teammate,“Era!Stop!”Getting no response,I called again,but my shouts were carried away in the opposite direction by t he wind.Seconds passed.Nothing! I was gradually being le ft alone,completely defenseless against the low temperatures of Antar ctica.My strength increased when I thought of a cold,lonely death.I pulled again my sledge,which moved a little.I removed the ice with my ski-pole and boot,desperately trying to break the sledge free.The sledge shot f orward,knocking me off balance.I struggled to my feet and set off after the team.I caught up just as Reena,my teammate from India,looked behind her and noticed there was one person missing .She turned around on her skis,in shock and found me in the near distance.As we continued,my panic slowly faded.For the rest of the day,each of the team was glancing over their shoulder every few minutes.They were not going to risk losing me again.46.

Which may be the best title of the passage?A.How to Survive in Antarctic B.A Mysterious Trip to the South PoleC. Female Expedition Team D.Being Left behind in the SnowCWhile residents of wealthy nations tend to have greater life sa tisfaction, new research shows that those living in poorer nati ons report having greater meaning in life.These findings, published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological science, suggest that me aning in life may be higher in poorer nations as a result of gre ater religiosity (笃信宗教). As countries become richer, religion becomes less central to people’s lives and they lose a sense of meaning in life.“Thus far, the wealth of nations has been almost always asso ciated with longevity, health, happiness or life satisfaction,” ex plains psychological scientist Shigehiro Oishi of the of . “Give n that meaning in life is an important aspect of overall well-being, we wanted to look more carefully at differential patterns , correlates (相关物), and predictors for meaning in life.”Oishi and colleague Ed Diener of the of at Urbana-Champaign investigated life satisfaction, meaning, and well-being by examining data from the 2007 Gallup World Poll, a la rge-scale survey of over 140,000 participants from 132 countries. In addition to answering a basic life satisfaction question, parti cipants were asked: “Do you feel your life has an important pu rpose or meaning?” and “Is religion an important part of your daily life?”The data revealed some unexpected trends:“Among Americans, those who are high in life satisfaction are also high in meaning in life,” says Oishi. “But when we looked at the societal level of analysis, we found a completely differe nt pattern of the association between meaning in life and life s atisfaction.”When looking across many countries, Oishi and Diener found that people in wealthier nations were more educated, had few er children, and expressed more individualistic attitudes comp ared to those in poorer countries – all factors that were associ ated with higher life satisfaction but a significantly lower sense of meaning in life.”The data suggest that religiosity may play an important role: R esidents of wealthier nations, where religiosity is lower, report ed less meaning in life and had higher suicide rates than poor er countries.According to the researchers, religion may provide meaning t o life to the extent that it helps people to overcome personal d ifficulty and cope with the struggles of working to survive in po or economic conditions:“Religion gives a system that connects daily experiences with the coherent whole (连贯的整体) and a general structure to one’s life … and plays a critical role in constructing meaning out of extreme hardship,” the res earchers write.Oishi and Diener hope to reproduce these findings using mor e comprehensive measures of meaning and religiosity, and ar e interested in following countries over time to track whether e conomic prosperity gives rise to less religiosity and less meaning in life.51.The wealth of nations has always been related to all the fol lowing except _______.A. longevityB. healthC. happinessD. a life of purpose52. Which of the following questions couldn’t the participants have answered?A. Does your life have a purpose or meaning?B. Do you have relatives living abroad?C.

People in wealthier nations were more educated, have fe wer children and express less individualistic attitudes compar ed to those in poorer countries.C. Religion may provide meaning to life in that people can get strong support from it in face of hardship.D. Wealthy people are more likely to commit suicide than po or people.54. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The poorer a country is, the more religious its people are.B. Economic prosperity gives rise to less religiosity and less meaning in life.C. If you want to find meaning in life, you must practice a rel igion.D. Meaning in life doesn’t have much to do with the amount of wealth one possesses.55.

She said “Yes” and 31 that she had been taking lessons—at age 54!“I have been playing for eight years now,” I said.“Then you must play a song for me before you leave,” she 32 .I thought she was kidding and I simply smiled. By the end of the purchase of the vitamins, she33 me of our musical “deal”. I thought for a moment and decided to play David Lanz’s“Return to the Heart”,34 she had much passion for music, and it’s one of my soul-searching songs.I played the song with my best 35 , with much emotions pouring into it. She loved it.As I was about to step out of the door, I heard a 36 voice ca lling out, “Young man!”I 37 , and there was an old lady taking one little step at a time with the help of another woman. “I wanted to come out to thank you for the 38 song that you played. I have been very sick, and it’s very hard for me to get off my bed, but I really wanted to thank you for the song. It made me feel fantastic… she said.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AIt has always been said that women are not good drivers, because they simply don’t have very good driving ability. On the other hand, most car accidents happen to men; very few happen to women.From this, we can see that women are much more careful while driving. Another very interesting fact that we should point out is that in the past, women preferred to let their husbands be the only driver in the family rather than have a driving license. Somehow they were prevented from making this step in their lives, but nowadays there are many women that want to pass their driving tests from an early age.However, we have to admit that men are more skillful drivers than women, but this does not meanthat a woman cannot become a good driver by accumulating(积累) experience. So more and more teenagers and women around the age of thirty now want to pass their driving tests. While taking their driving lessons, they also have a number of special lessons with their parents or somebody in the family that has a driving license, this is just to improve their driving abilities and help them to pass the tests more easily.To conclude, we can say that women are not such bad drivers. They just need more experience than men in order to be able to drive well. And on the other hand, there are a number of women that show better driving skills than the men around them.41. Compared with the past, nowadays many women _______.A. prefer to have a driving licenseB. have more accidents while drivingC. are somehow prevented from drivingD. are the only driver in the family42. What advantage do women have over men in driving?A. They have more skills.B. They are much more careful.C. They know more traffic rules.D. They have more driving experience.43. What can we infer from the passage?A. Teenage girls cannot take driving tests.B. Men didn’t allow women to drive in the past.C. With enough experience, women can become good drivers.D. Women can easily pass their tests by taking driving lessons.44. The passage mainly talks about _______.A. men and their driving abilityB. why men are better drivers than womenC. why more women like to have a driving licenseD. women and their driving abilityBIs there anything more important than health? I don’t think so. “Health is the greatest wealth,”wise people say, “You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.”If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you have a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to see a doctor.The doctor will test your blood pressure, examine your throat, feel your pulse, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed. After that he will advise some treatment or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.Speaking of doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story.An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.He then told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat some meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule—Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is. The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.A month later the gentleman came back into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”45. The writer thinks that _______.A. nothing is more important than moneyB. work is as important as studiesC. medicine is more important than pleasureD. health is more important than wealth46. The doctor usually tells his patient what to do_______.A. without examining the patientB. after he has examined the patientC. if the patient doesn’t take medicineD. unless the patient feels pain47. The underlined sentence in the last but one paragraph means that _______.A. he was feeling better than everB. he wasn’t a healthy manC. he was feeling worse than beforeD. he would be well again48. From the last sentence of the passage, we learn the gentleman man _______ before the doctor toldhim not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.A. was a heavy smokerB. didn’t smoke too muchC. didn’t smoke at allD. began to learn to smokeCWhy do you play games? Because they are interesting. Besides,following the rules, p lanning your next move, acting as a team member…these are all “game” ideas that you will come across in your life.Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such asrope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are entertaining and fun.But perhaps more importantly, they translate life skills into excitingdramas(戏剧) that teach children some of the basic rules they will besupposed to follow in the rest of their lives, such as taking turns andco-operating(合作).Many ch ildren’s games have a practical side. Children around the world play games that prepare them for work which they will do when they grow up. For example, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones, which sharpens the hand-eye coordination(协调) needed in hunting.Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all—the Olympic Games—bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competitions. People who watch the events wave their national flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earns it. For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.Sports are also events that unite people. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on all continents play it—some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He created a fund to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a good future.Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed, and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.49. Through playing hide-and-seek, children are expected to learn to _______.A. be a team leaderB. obey the basic rulesC. act as a grown-upD. predict possible danger50. According to the passage, why is winning Olympic medals so encouraging?A. It inspires people’s deep love for the country.B. It proves the exceptional(独特的) skills of the winners.C. It helps the country out of natural disasters.D. It earns the winners fame and fortune.51. Iribarne’s goal of forming the fund is to _______.A. bring fun to all the kidsB. provide soccer balls for childrenC. give poor kids a chance for a better lifeD. appeal to soccer players to help poor kids52. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Sports increase a country’s competitiveness.B. Sports can get all athletes together.C. People are advised to play games for fun.D. Games benefit people all their lives. PART FOUR WRITING (36 points)Section A (5 points)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.You are supposed to always do at least three things every day: one for yourself, one for someone you know, and one for someone you don’t know. If you find doing the three things every day too much to begin with, then spread them over a week and keep up the habit.Looking after yourself can include taking exercise, seeing friends in a more regular way and changing your routine from time to time. These are all effective ways of being kind to yourself. I t’s so easy to forget to pay attention to taking real care of yourself as you hurry through your day, trying to finish your duties.Perhaps it might be a nice idea to make the family feel surprised by doing something unexpected, such as bringing them morning tea in bed and making pancakes for their tea. Just as it helps you to change your routine, it will help the family too. You can also make an unexpected phone call to a distant friend. Sending a thank-you note to the people who have invited you to dinner, or sending flowers to celebrate a good exam result, will bring happiness both to you and to the people who are receiving them.You can also do something kind for a person you don’t know. For example, next time you buy a take-away coffee, try paying for the drink the person behind you is buying. What’s more, simple things like opening doors for people, standing aside to let someone pass, allowing someone to go ahead of you in a queue are easy to do and can change someone’s day.Section B (6 points)Directions: Read the following passage.

Many people just cannot a gree with what they mean. We asked a lady, who replied that she thought you could judge a well-mannered person 25. the way they occupied the space ar ound them --- for example, when such a person walks down a street, he or she is constantly aware of 26.______. Such people never bu mp into other people.However, a second person thought that this was more a quest ion of civilized behavior 27.______ good manners. Instead, thi s other person told us a story, 28.______ he said was quite we ll known, about an American who 29.______ (invite) to an Ara b meal in one of the countries of the Middle East. The Americ an hadn’t been told very much about the kind of food he might expect. If he had known about Arab food, he might have beh aved better.Immediately before him was a very flat piece of bread that looked, to him, very much like a napkin. Picking it up, he put it int o his collar, 30.______ _______it fell across his shirt. His Arab host, who had been watching, 31.______ (say) nothing, but i mmediately copied the action of his guest.And that, said this second person, 32.______ (be)a fine exam ple of good manners.(B)Over the last 25 years, British society has changed a great de al--- or at least many parts of it have. In some ways, 33.______, v ery little has changed, particularly where attitudes are concern ed.

The increasingly popular “design museums” that ar e opening today, however, perform quite a different __41__. U nlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects t hat are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even __42___ things like fridges and washing mach ines in the center of the hall.People have argued that design museums are often made us e of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales--it is the ___43___ of excellently invented products. The differe nce between the window of a department store and the showc ase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you somet hing, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places wh ere people feel __44___ with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frigh tened or puzzled. This is __45__ because design museums cl early show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do, and how design has __46__ the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on th e other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling th at there is something beyond their __47__.In recent years, several new design museums have opened t heir doors. Each of these museums has tried to __48__ the pu blic’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s , f or example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters toa group of Italian fish-tins.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are f our words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

For those who are well prepared, it can be a 51 experience but for others it can be a 52 time. Love them or hate them, t hough, your job prospects are largely dependent on your inter view 53 . It’s not unusual for a company to have fifty or sixty applicants, for a job, so if you are asked to attend a(n) 54 , y ou are a serious competitor being seriously 55 for the post. Usually companies give you at least a day’s notice of an inter view, so use that time to 56 yourself well. Read through the job description and any information sent to you, and prepare answers to as many questions as you can 57 .At an interview, try to present a “ 58 ” version of yourself. Yo u need to 59 the employer that you can do the job, 60 yo u mustn’t appear over-confident. Being pleasant, however, doesn’t mean that you sh ould 61 with everything that the interviewer says. Most com panies want to elect someone with his or her own 62 .It’s also important to make sure that you really listen to what i s being asked. In your preparation you will have rehearsed an swers to a number of imaginary questions; but you must 63 your response to suit the questions.It’s worthwhile spending a few moments after the interview 6 4 your performance.

A. performance B. result C. interviewD. positionSection BDirections: Read the following passages. Each passage is foll owed by several questions. For each of them there are four c hoices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best acc ording to the information given in the passage you have just r ead.AThe morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching, and I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt:“The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my plac e. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my he ad stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till m y dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unb earable. I started calling the dentists in the phonebook, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunch time, I got lucky.“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist w ill fit you in .”I look my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenlyI began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn ’t he as busy as the others?In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw not hing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.When I told her my fears, she laughed and said ,“Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”“How long do I have to wait for him? ”I asked impatiently.“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy th e artwork,” the assistant said.“The artwork?” I was puzzled.The chair went back, suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it, on the ceiling. How consi derate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.What a relief!66. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling t hat morning?A. Cheerful.B. Nervous.C. Satisfied.D. Upset.67. What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?A. The dentist’s agreeing to treat her at very short notice.B. The dentist’s being as busy as the other dentists.C. The surroundings of the dentist’s office.D. The laughing assistant of the dentist.68. Why did the author suddenly smile?A. Because the dentist came at last.B. Because she saw a picture on the ceiling.C. Because she could relax in the chair.D. Because the assistant kept comforting her.69. What did the author learn from her experience most proba bly?A. Strike while the iron is hot.B. Have a good word for one’s friendC. Put oneself in other’s shoesD. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B70. The phrase “a gra nt” in the first line most probably means _____.A. bank interestB. a credit cardC. an education feeD. financial aid71. A student from Japan who has been studying in for a yea r and intends togo to college in a few months will _____.be unable to get money from any LEAget money if taking a first degree courseget money from LEA when finishing his coursehave to open a bank account before getting money72. A 31-year-old nurse wishes to qualify as a doctor at a university. She ha s workedsince she was 25. How much extra money will she get a year ?None. B. £155. C. £615.D. £515.73. A big bank offers a new student special services because _____.A. they need student accounts badlyB. they charge students extra interestC. they know he can get money regularlyD. they hope he’ll be a potential customerCPublicity(宣传) offers several benefits. There are not costs for message ti me or space. An ad in prime-time television may cost $250,000 to $5,000,000 or more per minute, whereas a five-minute report on a network newscast would not cost anything. Publicity reaches a mass audience within a short time and ne w products or company policies are widely known.Credibility about messages is high, because they are reported in independent media. A newspaper review of a movie has more believability than an ad in the same paper, because the re ader associates independence with objectivity. Similarly, peop le are more likely to pay attention to news reports than to ads. For example, Women’s Wear Daily has both fashion reports and advertisements. Readers spend time reading the stories, but they skim through the ads. Furthermore, there may be 10 commercials during a half-hour television program or hundreds of ads in a magazine. Fe ature stories are much fewer in number and stand out clearly.Publicity also has some significant limitations. A firm has little control over messages, their timing, their placement, or their c overage by a given medium. It may issue detailed news relea ses and find only portions mentioned by the media, and medi a have the ability to be much more critical than a firm would li ke.For example, in 1982, Procter & Gamble faced a massiv e publicity problem over the meaning of its 123-year-old company logo. To fight this negative publicity, the firm had a spokesperson appear on Good Morning America to disprov e the rumor(谣言). The false rumors were temporarily put to rest. However, in 1985, publicity became so troublemaking that Procter & Gamble decided to remove the logo from its products.A firm may want publicity during certain periods, such as whe n a new product is introduced or new store opened, but the m edia may not cover the introduction or opening until after the ti me it would aid the firm. Similarly, media determine the place ment of a story; it may follow a report on crime or sports. Final ly, the media decide whether to cover a story at all and the a mount of coverage to be devoted to it.74. All of the following advantages of publicity are mentioned EXCEPT _____.A. time savingB. attentivenessC. credibilityD. profitability75. Compared with ad, news report or featuring stories are m ore _____.A. believableB. clearC. dependentD. subjective76. The example of “Procter & G amble” is given to show ____ _.A. the efficient way of disproving rumorsB. the importance of a spokespersonC. the interaction between firms and mediaD. the negative effect of publicity77. What’s the author’s attitude towards publicity?A. doubtfulB. objectiveC. passiveD. supportiveSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the que stions or complete the statements in the fewest possible word s.The motor vehicle has killed and disabled more people in its b rief history than any bomb or weapon ever invented. Much of t he blood on the street flows essentially from uncivil behavior o f drivers who refuse to respect the legal or moral rights of othe rs. So the massacre(屠杀)on the road may be regarded as a social problem.In fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless people just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carel essness is no excuse when one’s actions could bring death or damages to others. A minority of the killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence.Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be connected with psychological c ondition of the driver. Emotional upsets can affect drivers’ rea ctions, slow their judgment, and blind them to dangers that mi ght otherwise be evident. The experts warn that it is vital for e very driver to make a conscious effort to keep one’s emotions under control.Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem i s not limited to drivers. Street walkers regularly ignore traffic r egulations. They are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents; and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to th e basic rules of the road.In the past few years, safety standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through periodic r oad-worthiness inspections. In addition, speed limits have been lo wered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has decreas ed. But the accident experts still worry because there has bee n little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The onlyreal and lasting solution, say the experts, is to convince peopl e that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and con centration. Those who fail to do all these things present a thre at to those with whom they share the road.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in N O MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)78. Why road killers can’t be excused?Because __________.79. In order to avoid automobile accidents, the experts sugge st drivers should __________.80. Besides drivers, who should also be blamed for most road s accidents?81. The accident rate has decreased in the past few years be cause of __________.第II卷I.

It was Davi d. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and hi s hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had introduced him t o me before. “This boy has lost his family,” he wrote. “He is und erstandably very sad and refuses to talk to others,and I’m very worried about him. Can you help?” I looked at Dav id and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems which psychology doesn’t have the answer to, and wh ich no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can d o is to listen openly and silently. And I would do in this way. The first two times we met, David didn’t say a word. He sat ther e, only looking up to look at the child ren’s drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon —in complete silence and without looking at me. It’s not easy to c heat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice. Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board a nd pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I ev en got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my com pany. But why did he never look at me? “Perhaps he simply ne eds someone to share his pain with,” I thought. “Perhaps he se nses that I respect his suffering.” Some months later, when wewere playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly. “It’s your turn ,” he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school a nd joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times, about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into universit y. Now he had really started to live his own life. Maybe I gave D avid something. But I also learned that one—without any words—can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulde r to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.21. When he first met the author, David_________.A. felt a little excitedB. walked stubbor nlyC. looked a little nervousD. showed up with his teacher22. As a psychologist, the author __________.A. was uncertain about psychologyB. was ready to listen to DavidC. was able to describe David’s problemD. was sure of solving David’s problem23.

The last sentence “Or get a bigger wallet.” means “_______.”A. Phone cards are cheapB. You cannot use all payphonesC. Thieves will not break card phonesD. Or people have to carry much moneyCPsychologists take opposing views of how external rewards, fro m warm praise to cold cash, affect motivation and creativity. Be haviorists, who study the relation between actions and their con sequences, argue that rewards can improve performance at wo rk and school. Cognitive(认知学派的) researchers, who study various aspects of mental life, maint ain that rewards often destroy creativity by encouraging depend ence on approval and gifts from others.The latter view has gained many supporters, especially among educators. But the careful use of small monetary(金钱的) rewards sparks creativity in grade-school children, suggesting that properly presented inducement s(刺激) indeed aid inventiveness, according to a study in the June J ournal of Personality and Social Psychology.“If kids know they’re working for a reward and can focus on a re latively challenging task, they show the most creativity,” says R obert Eisenberger of the University of Delaware in . “But it’s eas y to kill creativity by giving rewards for poor performance or cre ating too much anticipation(预期) for rewards.” A teacher who continually draws attention to rewards or who hands out high grades for ordinary achievemen t ends up with uninspired students, Eisenberger holds. As an example of the latter point, he notes growing efforts at major unive rsities to tighten grading standards and restore failing grades. In earlier grades, the use of so-called token economies, in which students handle challenging p roblems and receive performance-based points toward valued rewards, shows promise in raising effort and creativity, the psychologist claims.31. Psychologists are divided with regard to their attitudes towa rd______.A. the choice between spiritual encouragement and monetary r ewardsB. the amount of monetary rewards for students’ creativityC. the study of relationship between actions and their conseque ncesD. the effects of external rewards on students’ performance32. What is the response of many educators to external reward s for their students?A. They have no doubts about them.B. They have doubts about them.C. They approve them.D. They avoid talking about them.33. Which of the following can best raise students’ creativity according to Robert Eisenberger?A. Assigning them tasks they have not dealt with before.B. Assigning them tasks which require inventiveness.C. Giving them rewards they really deserve.D. Giving them rewards they anticipate.34. It can be inferred from the passage that major universities a re trying to tighten their grading standards because they believe _________.A. rewarding poor performance may kill the creativity of student sB. punishment is more effective than rewardingC. failing uninspired students help improve their overall academ ic standardsD. discouraging the students’ anticipation for easy rewards is a matter of urgency35. The phrase underlined “token economies” probably refers to _________.A. ways to develop economyB. systems of rewardin g studentsC. approaches to solving problemsD. methods of improvi ng performanceD(注:请把36-40小题的答案涂在机读卡的71-75题处!)Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain SharpEveryone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit—and that can be a very annoying thing. 36 Read on for some techniques worth trying.1. 37People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcomi ng events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's dise ase (早老性痴呆症), according to a recent study.___38 Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do. There's evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better. In other words, keep your brain l ooking forward.2. Go for a walk.Mildly raised glucose (葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form m emories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down t o normal levels. In fact, exercise produces chemicals that are g ood for your brain. 393. Learn something new.Take a Spanish class online, join a drawing club, or learn to pla y cards. A study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mi nd. But the best thing for your brain is when you learn somethin g new and are physically active at the same time. 40 Or go dancing with your friends.A. In other words, when you take care of your body, you take ca re of your brain.B. This can be especially harmful to the aged.C. It should be something like learning gardening.D. Luckily, research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid tho se moments.E. But don't worry if your schedule isn't filled with life-changing events.F.

ASome people learn a second language easily. Others have tro uble learning a new language. How can you help yourself lear n a new language, such as English? There are several ways to make learning English a little easier and more interesting. The first step is to feel positive about learning English. If you b elieve that you can learn, you will learn. Be patient. You do no t have to understand everything all at once. It is natural to ma ke mistakes when you learn something new. We can learn fro m our mistakes. In other words, do not worry about taking risk s.The second step is to practice your English. For example, writ e a diary every day. You will get used to writing it in English, a nd you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English. Several weeks later, you will see that your writing is improving . In addition, you must speak English every day. You can prac tice with your classmates outside class. You will make mistak es, but gradually you will become comfortable communicating in English.The third step is to keep a record of your language learning. Y ou can write this in your journal. After each class, think about what you did. Did you answer a question correctly? Did you u nderstand something the teacher explained? Perhaps the less on was difficult, but you tried to understand it.You must be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it. It is important to practice every day and make a record of your achievements. You will enjoy learning English,and you will feel more confident in yourself.21. To feel positive about learning English means _________.A. if you are patient, you will learnB. if you keep a record, you can improveC. if you believe you can learn, you will learnD. if you make mistakes, you can learn from your mistakes22. When you learn English, you do not need to _________.A. understand everything all at onceB. practice with your classmates outside classC. write a diary regularlyD. feel more confident in yourself23. According to the passage, what is not helpful for you to en joy learning English?A. To communicate in English.B. To worry about taking risks.C. To make a record of the achievements.D. To think about what has been done after each class.24. What does the underlined word “journal” in Paragraph 4 m ean?A. Diary.B. Composition.C. Magazine.D. Ne wspaper.BOn the night of November 14, 1978, a six-year-old Korean boy was flying to the . All he knew was that he wa s on a plane heading for somewhere. The plane landed at , where he was greeted by a family. This young boy was me.I have grown up in a town where there were few Asians, so I s tuck out in the crowd. I made friends quickly and they treated me just like anyone else. You may ask if anyone made fun of my appearance. Well, of course, I met that kind of person. I ju st shrugged it off.As an adopted child, I have something that others don't have.I have had the benefit of two families. I'm lucky to have got a chance to start a new life. But we must try never to forget our past. Someday I will go back to to find out what kind of cultur e I left behind.There is only one thing that I regret about being adopted. Wh en I argue with my parents and they realize they are losing th e argument, they sometimes wonder what I would be doing if I were back in . I don't understand this because I thought the p urpose of adopting someone was to give them a better chanc e of growing up in a family. Some day when I am older, I want to adopt a girl and raise her the way my parents have raised me, but I would do it better, for I know what went well and what did not.25. We learn that when the writer was on the way to his new f amily,______.A. he was with his own parentsB. he was very happy and excitedC. he was about ten years old thenD. he didn't know he was going to be adopted26.

The writer doesn’t know anything about .29. What does the writer want to do when he is older?A. Go back to live with his parents in .B. Tell his parents what they have done wrong.C. Find out how to raise children in a better way.D. Adopt a girl and raise her in a good way.COne day, when I was working as a psychologist in , an adoles cent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walkin g up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shakin g slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. "This boy has lost his family," he wrote. "He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I'm very worried about him. Can you help?"I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I h elp him? There are problems psychology doesn't have the an swer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the be st thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.The first two times we met David didn't say a word. He sat t here, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on thewall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nod ded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday aft ernoon - in complete silence and without looking at me. It's no t easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won o nce or twice.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess boar d and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed m y company. But why did he never look at me?"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with,"I thought. "Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering." So me months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly."It's your turn," he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in schoo l and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into uni versity. Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one - without any words – can reach out to another person. All it ta kes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.30. When he first met the author, David________.A. felt a little excitedB. walked energeticallyC. looked a little nervousD. showed up with his teacher31. As a psychologist, the author_______.A. was ready to listen to DavidB. was skeptical about psychologyC. was able to describe David's problemD. was sure of handling David's problem32. What made David change?A. His teacher's help.B. The author's friendship.C. His exchange of letters with the author.D. The author's silent communication with him.DHow to deal successfully with a child showing outstanding mu sical ability? It’s not always clear how best to develop and enc ourage his gift. Many parents may even fail to recognize and r espond to their children’s need until discouragement explodes into uncooperative behavior. And while most schools are equipped to deal with children who are especially able in academi c subjects,the musically gifted require special understanding which may not always be available in an ordinary school. Such children may well benefit from the education offered by a specialist mu sic school.The five music schools in aim to provide all environment whe re gifted children can develop their skills under the guidance o f professional musicians. Children here spend about half of a day on musical activities,for example,individual lessons,orchestras,chamber(室内音乐的)groups,voice training,conducting and theory. They also spend several hours a day practicing in private rooms. The rest of their time is taken up with the subjects: English, maths and basic sciences.What are the disadvantages? An obvious problem is that the f ees are high. However, each school will offer scholarships an d other forms of financial aid. Secondly, not all parents want t o send their children to boarding school, especially at an early age. Almost all the directors of the specialist schools express doubts about the wisdom of admitting children as young as s even into such a tense and disciplined (守纪律的) environment. They stress,however, that their main aim is to turn out “wel l-rounded and well—balanced individual.”33. If a child’s musical ability is not recognized, ___________.A. the child may behave badlyB. the ability may fade awayC. the child may lose interestD. the parents may become anxious34. What probably may musically gifted children face in ordina ry schools?A. Their academic work may suffer.B. Schools lack musical equipment.C. Music is not seen as an important subject.D. Parents and teachers don’t work together.35. The passage mainly talks about__________.A. education and development about childrenB. disadvantages of music schoolsC. music schools for children with music giftD. how to deal with music talented children第三部分第一节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
