So it's the potential for the future, and we're trying to understand what the future destiny of this galaxy and many other galaxies would be.”McNamara says that supermassive black holes may change how galaxies form and change over time. “The energy released by these giant black holes is very 25. ( ) to these atmospheres, which is the stuff out of which future stars will form.”And what that means, he says, is that these huge black holes can affect the rate at which a galaxy grows.SummaryListen to the passage and complete the table using no more than three words for each blank according to what you hear.

Each passage is followed by several questions. Respond to the questions using information from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.Section A (10 marks)Questions 56—60 are based on the following passage.Situated at the heart of Beijing, the Palace Museum is approached through the Gate of Heavenly Peace (Tian'an men). Because of its centrality as well as restricted access, the palace was called The Forbidden City. It was built from 1406 to 1420 by the third emperor of the Ming dynasty, the Yongle Emperor who, upon usurping the throne, determined to move his capital northward from Nanjing to Beijing. The Ming dynasty fell to the Manchu Qing in 1644 and in 1911 the Qing dynasty was overthrown by the republican revolutionaries.56. ( )57. ( ) Measuring 961 meters from north to south and 753 meters from east to west, it covers an area of 1,110,000 square meters. Each of the four sides is pierced by a gate: the Meridian Gate (Wu men) on the south, the Gate of Divine Prowess (Shenwu men) on the north, theEastern and Western Prosperity Gates (Donghua men and Xihua men). Once inside, visitors will see a succession of halls and palaces spreading out on either side of an invisible central axis. The buildings' glowing yellow roofslevitating above vermilion walls is a magnificent sight. The painted ridges and carved beams all contribute to the sumptuous effect.Known as the Outer Court, the southern portion of the Forbidden City centers on three main halls –Hall of Supreme Harmony (Taihedian), Hall of Central Harmony (Zhonghedian), and Hall of Preserving Harmony (Baohedian).58. ( ) Mirroring this arrangement is the Inner Court comprising the northern portion of the Forbidden City. The Inner Court is comprised of not only the residences of the emperor and his consorts but also venues for religious rituals and administrative activities.59. ( ) These were precisely designed in accordance with a code of architectural hierarchy, which designated specific features to reflect the paramount authority and status of the emperor. No ordinary mortal would have been allowed or would even have dared to come within close proximity to these buildings.60. ( ) The collection, displayed in gallery halls throughout the complex, is becoming increasingly more accessible with digital technologies. The Museum's website, established in 2001, is dedicated to presentinga “Digital Palace Museum”by which the wealth of cultural heritage contained in the Forbidden City may be effectively spread worldwide.Questions 56—60Choose from the sentences A ―G the one which best fits each gap of 56 ―60. There are two extra sentences which you do not need to use.A. It was here in the Ourter Court that the emperor held court and conducted grand audiences.B. During nearly six hundred years, twenty-four emperors lived and ruled from this palace.C. In total, the buildings of the two courts account for an area of some 163,000 square meters.D. The Palace Museum's range of publications has created further interest in domains such as the Forbidden City's history, architecture, and vast cultural holdings.E. The Forbidden City is surrounded by 10-metre-high walls and a 52-metre-wide moat.F. Although the Forbidden City used to be an impenetrable fortress, the imperial palace is now a public museum.G. The Museum's administration launched a policy of comprehensive restoration.Section B (10 marks)Questions 61—65 are based on the following passage.Like people, each country has unique characteristics. Many countries are known by the products they produce. These products are anything from foods and minerals to plants and buildings. Here are whata few countries are known for.Sri Lanka is well known for its Ceylon tea. The country exports more black tea than any other nation. Ceylon was the country's name when it was a British colony. In the 19th century, Sri Lanka was famous for its coffee. But most of its coffee plantations were destroyed by insects in the 1870s. It was during this time Britain started the tea plantations.When people think of Bulgaria, they often say “Rosova Dolina,”which means “the valley of roses.”During the rule of the turkish Empire, the Bulgarian rose became widely popular. Bulgaria produces 80 percent of the world's roses. Bulgaria also produces rose oil and rose perfume. The country even has rose juice. In fact, people long ago believed that the Greek gods gained immortality by drinking elixir made with roses. To make one 500-milliter bottle of rose juice, 50 roses are needed.Ghana's cacao beans were used to make drinks for the rich during ancient times in Central America. Later,a special kind of cacao was brought to Ghana from Brazil in 1824. Known as the porastero cacao, it made up 80-90 percent of all cacao produced. The cacao is flat and dark purple. It has a bitter and sour taste. Ghana's chocolate has also gained international acclaim.It is difficult to say where cheese first came from. What we do know is that the Swiss made cheese long before Jesus was born. Cheese then was used as currency in Switzerland and represented social status and wealth. In the fourth century, cheese was internationally introduced and quickly became popular. There is an unusual story about how fondue came about. Long ago, the Swissliving on the mountains were confined to their homes because ofa large snowstorm. Cheese, wine and bread were the last food they had left. They melted the cheese with wine and ate the bread with it.Farmlands are plentiful in Argentina, so the country can grow many kinds of crops. The crops are used to feed its numerous livestock. The invention of refrigerator ships has made exporting of meats safer and easier. Argentina jumped at the opportunity to increase meat exports. Without refrigerator ships, the meat could get contaminated while travelling long distances.Questions 61—65Answer the following questions according to the passage.61. What was Sri Lanka well known for in 1800s?62. Why do people call Bulgaria “the valley of roses”?63. What does cacao look like?64. When was cheese well known to the world?65. What is Argentina famous for according to the passage?Section C (10 marks)Questions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage.There is a saying in France that states, “The government could fall, the Louvre could be broken into, or aliens could land on earth, but if any of these things happened during the Tour de France, no one would notice.”The Tour de France is the most famous cycling race in the world. The race, which is held in July every year, consists of twenty one -day stages, plus several rest days.The course follows a clockwise route around France, and often neighboring countries, including Luxembourg, Belgium, and Italy. The winner is the rider who completes all twenty stages of the race in the shortest overall time.The Tour de France first started on July 1, 1903, when sixty cyclists left from in front of The Alarm Clock Cafe, just outside of Paris, and rode 467 kilometers to Lyon. The first race consisted of six legs, each of which was about 400 kilometers long. At that time there were no rest days—the winner was the rider who finished the race in the shortest total time. The winner of the first Tour de France, Maurice Garin, the most popular cyclist in France at that time, received 2,000 francs (about $350). It took him 94 hours and 33 minutes to ride all 2,428 kilometers of the race, three hours faster than the runner-up. Over the weeks during which the race was run, the idea of the Tour de France slowly caught on with the people of France. The race has been held every year since that time, except during the years of World Wars I and II.The Tour de France has developed several special honors for which racers compete. Above all, the highest honor is the “yellow jersey”. Henri Desgranges, the founder of the race, introduced the yellow jersey in 1919 to show the leading racer each day of the Tour de France. Each day, the officials who keep track of all of the rider's times compare each rider's total time up to that point. The racer with the lowest overall time wears the yellow jersey during the following day's race. Other honors include the“green jersey”, which is given to the rider who sprints the best by riding the fastest over shortdistances, and the “polka dot jersey”,a white jersey with red dots, for the best rider in the mountains along the route.Over the years of the race, the competitors have gained a reputation for good sportsmanship. For example, ifa lead rider falls off his bike, it is common for the following riders to slow down to allow the fallen rider to catch up. Some watchers are surprised by this, but as German rider Jan Ullrich, who came in runner-up in 2002 after waiting for winner Lance Armstrong, says, Of course I would wait. If I would have won this race by taking advantage of someone's bad luck, then the race was not worth winning.Questions 66—70Complete the summary below with information from the passage, using no more than three words for each blank.The Tour de France is the most famous 66. ( ) race in the world. The race follows a 67. ( ) route around France, and some parts of the race may go into 68. ( ) countries like Belgium and Italy. The race 69.

But eventually, the desert sand once again covered the Sphinx, leaving only the head visible. It was not until the 1800s that archaeologists began clearing the sand from the statue and began researching the long history of the Sphinx. At last, in the 1920, all of the sand was finally cleared away and restoration work, which continues to this day, was begun.Section B (10 marks)Translate the following paragraph into English.

The neck may also swell, both of which are the normal response to infection.Sometimes a sore throat may occur with the common cold, and with influenza there may be dryness of the throat, pain on coughing and loss of voice. TREATMENTAspirin: To help relieve the pain on swallowing and (if there is one) the fever, use aspirin tablets dissolved in water, so that the patient can gargle before swallowing. Repeat the treatment every 4 hours.Drink: Encourage the patient to drink plenty of liquids.Food: Food should not be forced on a patient who does not want to eat.Steam: If there is pain in the throat on coughing, breathing in steam may help. CHILDRENYoung children, who may not be able to gargle, should be given aspirin dissolved in water every 4 hours at the right dose for their age. At one year: a single junior aspirin. At five years: half an adult aspirin. At eight years: one whole adult aspirin. WHEN TO SEE THE DOCTOR If the sore throat is still getting worse after 2 days. If the patient complains of earache.

Young children should not be allowed to gargle with it. Adults should be given tablets to swallow whole.Young children should be given aspirin more often than adults. Adults should be given larger doses of aspirin than children.Section B (14 marks)There is one passage in this section with 10 questions.

In 1993, the owners of a large hotel and of several houses discovered, to their horror, that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea had eaten into the soft limestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were studying the problem, the hotel and several houses disappeared altogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea. Erosion of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people, forecasting the year in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea. Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes. Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases, this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say, until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile, if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain lucre, apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England.

This is closely related to the treatment and training of the child in school, which is usually distinguished by the term “education”. In a society such as ours, both parents and teachers are responsible for the opportunities provided for the development of the child, so that upbringing and education are interdependent. The ideals and practices of child rearing vary from culture to culture. In general, the more rural the community, the more uniform are the customs of child Upbringing. In more technologically developed societies, the period of childhood and adolescence tends to be extended over a long time, resulting in more opportunity for education and greater variety in character development. Early upbringing in the home is naturally affected both by the cultural pattern of the community and by the parents’ capabilities and their aims and depends not only on upbringing and education but also on the innate abilities of the child. Intelligent parents, however, realize that the particular setting of each family is unique, and there can be no rigid general rules. All parents have to solve the problems of freedom and discipline. The younger the child, the more readily the mother gives is to his demands to avoid disappointing him. She knows that if his energies are not given an outlet, her child’s continuing development may be warped. A child must be allowed to enjoy this “messy” but tactile stage of discovery before he is ready to goon to the less physical pleasures of toys and books. Similarly, throughout life, each stage depends on the satisfactory completion of the one before.51．It’s a general belief that a child’s later character and personality is ______ decided by his early experiences both at home and in school.A．chieflyB．by chanceC．entirelyD．seldom正确答案：A52．The word “cumulative” (in line 1, Para. 1) most probably means ______.A．decisiveB．extremely beneficialC．strongD．progressively greater正确答案：D53．It can be seen from the passage that ______.A．the cultural pattern is the single factor that affects a child’s upbringing in the homeB．by no means does the technological development of children’s characterC．there are advisable rules for parents to go by in bringing up their childrenD．upbringing and education are mutually complementary正确答案：D54．A child’s development might well be badly affected if ______.A．he was subjected to unusually strict disciplineB．his mother often gave in to his demandsC．his energies were freely given an outletD．he were brought up in a happy environment正确答案：A55．As it is presented in the passage, rather than a smooth progression the development of the human character and personality is a series of ______.A．actsB．stagesC．functionsD．completions正确答案：BSection BYour passport is your official identification as an American citizen. In America, most people never consider obtaining a passport unless they are planning a trip out of the country. A passport is final proof of identity in almost every country in the world. In 1979 almost 15 million Americans held passports. Most of these passports were obtained to travel outside the country because, except for a few Western nations, passports are required to enter every country. And if you travel abroad, you must have a valid passport to reenter the country. When traveling abroad, you will need a passport for identification when exchanging dollars for francs or marks or other foreign currency. You may also need your passport to use a credit card, buy an airplane ticket, check into a hotel or casino. Don’t confuse passports and visas. Whereas a passport is issued by a country to its citizens, a visa is official permission to visit a country granted by the government of that country. For some years, many countries were dropping their visa requirements, but that trend has reversed. Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela now require visas from U.S. citizens. They may be obtained from the embassy of the country you wish to visit. Passport applications are available at passport agency offices in large cities like Boston, New York, or Chicago. In smaller cities, applications are available at post offices and at federal courts. To get your first passport, you must submit the application in person, along with a birth certificate and two pictures. Maybe because most Americans use their passports only when traveling and because they are good for five years, many people lose their passports. Any every passport is worth thousands of dollars to smugglers or criminals who desire to enter this country illegally or assume a false identity. Travelers should keep their passports in their pockets or pocketbooks at all times; never pack them or leave them in a room or automobile; when you arrive back home, store your passport in a safe or safety deposit box. And report a lost or stolen passport immediately; it is literally your identity.56．What is the main purpose of this passage?正确答案：To provide information about passports.57．Passports are needed when ______.正确答案：exchanging currency, using credit cards, checking into hotels, etc.58．Concerning passports and visas, what can we conclude from this passage?正确答案：Passports are more important than visas.59．What does the passage suggest about the importance of passports?正确答案：Most people don’t realize how important passports are.60．Where should travelers keep their passports?正确答案：In their pockets or pocketbooks．Section CHeat loss by sweating depends on the fact that when a liquid evaporates, it absorbs an enormous quantity of heat from its surroundings. Therefore, when 1 ml. of sweat evaporate, a great deal of heat is absorbed from the surface of the body in contact with it. This heat transfer occurs even if the environment is hotter than the body. Two factors affect the rate of evaporation of sweat, and therefore the effectiveness of sweating as a method of cooling the body. The first is the amount of movement of air surrounding the body. The second is the amount of water vapor in the air that surrounds the body. When air moves over the surface of water, the amount of evaporation is greatly increased. For this reason, sweat evaporates very rapidly on windy days, and the rate of heat loss by sweating is much more than on a still day. This accounts for the fact that hot still days are much less comfortable than hot windy days. In contrast, the sweat evaporates very rapidly on hot windy days, and cools the body quickly and effectively. The second factor is the amount of water vapor in the air--the humidity. When air is carrying the maximum amount of water vapor that it can hold, it is said to be 100% saturated with water vapor. The relative humidity of the air is said to be 100%. Under these conditions the air cannot carry any water, so no water can evaporate. When the relative humidity is high, therefore, sweat cannot evaporate. Instead, it forms large drops and runs off your skin without cooling you. When the air is very dry and carries no water at all, the relative humidity is said to be 0%. It is obvious that under these conditions, evaporation will be much more rapid. Therefore, sweating will be much more effective as a method of losing heat from the body. On a hot dry day, sweat evaporates as soon as it is formed, and you feel reasonably cool even though the temperature of your environment is very high.61．______ According to the passage, it can be inferred that housewives prefer to hang their washing on hot still days.A．TB．FC．NG正确答案：B62．______ People have good reasons to feel cool on a hot dry day because of quick evaporation.A．TB．FC．NG正确答案：B63．______ Hot windy days are much more comfortable than hot still days.A．TB．FC．NG正确答案：B64．______ On an extremely hot day, sweating to cool your body effectively will occur when the air is very hot and dry and carries no water at all.A．TB．FC．NG正确答案：A65．______ The heat transfer happens on the condition that the environment is cooler than the body.A．TB．FC．NG正确答案：A66．______ You might expect the highest incidence of a heat stroke when the maximum temperature is 100 and humidity is 50%.A．TB．FC．NG正确答案：CSection DThe most interesting architectural phenomenon of the 1970s was the enthusiasm for refurbishing old buildings. Obviously, this was not an entirely newphenomenon.【73】. A few trial efforts, such as Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco, proved their financial viability in the 1960s, but it was in the 1970s, with strong government support through tax incentives and rapid depreciation, as well as growing interest in ecology issues, that recycling became a major factor on the urban scene. One of the most comprehensive ventures was the restoration and transformation of Boston’s eighteenth century Faneuil Hall and the Quincy Market, designed in 1842. This section had fallen on hard times, but beginning with the construction of a new city hall immediately adjacent,【74】under the design leadership of Benjamin Thompson. He has provided a marvelous setting for dining, shopping, professional offices, and simply walking. Butler Square, in Minneapolis, exemplifies major changes in its complex of offices, commercial space, and【75】designed in 1906 as a hardware warehouse. The exciting interior timber structure of the building was highlighted by cutting light courts through the interior and adding large skylights. San Antonio, Texas,【76】. Rather than bringing in the bulldozers, San Antonio’s leaders rehabilitated existing structures, while simultaneously cleaning up the San Antonio River, which meanders through the business district. Sentences: A. offers an object lesson for numerous other cities combating urban decay B. What is new is the wholesale interest in reusing the past, in recycling, in adaptive rehabilitation. C. During the 1970s, old buildings in many cities were recycled for modem use. D. public amenities carved out of a massive pile E. It has returned to life with the intelligent reuse of these fine buildings.67．正确答案：B68．正确答案：E69．正确答案：D70．正确答案：APart ⅤTranslationSection A(89) For many women choosing whether to work or not to work outsidetheir home is a luxury: they must work to survive. Others face a hard decision. Perhaps the easiest choice has to do with economics. One husband said, “Marge and I decided after careful consideration that for her to go back to work at this moment was an extravagance (奢侈) we couldn’t afford”. (90) With two preschool children, it soon became clear in their figuring that with babysitters, transportation, and increased taxes, rather than having more money, they might actually end up with less. Economic factors are usually the first to be considered, but they are not the most important. The most important aspects of the decision have to do with the emotional needs of each member of the family. (91) It is in this area that husbands and wives find themselves having to face many confusing and conflicting feelings. (92) There are many women who find that homemaking is boring or who feel imprisoned (被囚禁) if they have to stay home with a young child or several children. On the other hand, there are women who think that homemaking gives them the deepest satisfaction. From my own experience, I would like to suggest that sometimes the decision to go back to is made in too much haste. There are few decisions that I now regret more. I wasn’t mature enough to see how much I could have gained at home. (93) I regret my impatience to get on with my career; I wish I had allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl’s eyes.71．正确答案：对许多妇女来说，可以在出门工作还是呆在家里进行选择是一种奢侈，因为他们要工作谋生。
