AWhat will our future look like? People have always been wondering about this question. Go on reading this text and you will know what will happen in the next fifty years.How can we know what the future will look like? To be able to understand the future, you must know the past. What has taken us to where we are today and what has changed along the way? The world has changed a lot in the last 150 years, but we humans are driven by the same basic needs as we were 150 years ago. Will this change in the next 150 years? No.What inventions have really made a difference in the last 150 years? In the past years, the inventions that have affected most people around the world for everyday living are the telephone, electricity, radio, television, computer, the car and the ability to communicate through the Internet. Then we of course have a lot of inventions that have made life easier, like new medicine, faster transports etc. In general, human beings have been working hard in the last 150 years to make the inventions so that they will be able to get control of the time and the world. Since there is still much to do in this area, this will be the focus at least for the next 150 years.Why do we need to predict the future? Predicting the future is important for two reasons: first we need to start to think about what kind of what kind of future we would like for ourselves and to pass on to the next generation, and then we need to know what decisions we need to make today that will give the best result in the future.1.What does the author try to tell us in the second paragraph?A.Humans will no longer enjoy food in the future.B.The world will be completely changed tomorrow.C.The world is quite different from what it was.D.Our basic needs will not change in the future.2.Our past inventions have made __________.A.our daily life more stressfulB.it easy for us to live work less timeD.our work easily done3.What will humans do in order to keep the world under control?A.To focus on making more inventions.B.To produce more cars for transportation.C.To spend more time working on the Internet.D.To work much harder to achieve their goals.4.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A.What result we’ll receiv e in the future.B.The decisions we make for our future.C.The two reasons of predicting the futureD.The importance of predicting the future.BCELL PHONES ARE THE NEW CIGARETTESWhen you sit down, you pick it out. When you are in your car, you reach for it.When you’re at work, you take a break to have a moment alone with it. When you get into a lift, you play with it.Cigarettes? Cup of coffee? No, it’s the third most addictive thing in modern life, the cell phone.And experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their desire to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationships.With its shiny surface, its smooth and satisfying touch, its air of complexity, the cell phone connects us to the world even as it disconnects us from people three feet away.In just the past couple of years, the cell phone has challenged individuals, employers, phone makers and counselors(顾问)in ways its inventors in the late 1940s never imagined.The costs are becoming even more evident, and I don’t mean just the monthly bill.Dr.Chris Knippers, a counselor at the Betty Ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has become a social problem not much different from other harmful addictions: a barrier to one-on-one personal contact, and an escape from reality.Sounds extreme, but we’ve all witnessed the evidence: the person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone in the car, ignoring her husband; the teen who texts messages all the way home from school, avoiding contact with kids all around him. Is it just rude, or is it a kind of unhealthiness? And pardon me, but how is this improving the quality of life?Jim Williams, an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts, notes that cell-phone addiction is part of a set of symptoms in a widening gulf of personal separation.He points to a study by Duke University researchers that found one-quarterof Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with.Despite the growing use of phones, e-mail and instant messaging, in other words, Williams says studies show that we don’t have as many friends as our parents. “Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances via the Internet and cell phones have produced fewer friends,” he says.If the cell phone has truly had these effects, it’s because it has become very widespread.Consider that in 1987, there were only 1 million cell phones in use.Today, something like 300 million Americans carry them.They far outnumber wired phones in the United States.5. Which of the following best explains the title of the passage?A. Cell phone users smoke less than they used to.B. More people use cell phones than smoke cigarettes.C. Cell phones have become as addictive as cigarettes.D. Using cell phone is just as cool as smoking cigarettes.6. The underlined word “curb” in Paragraph 2 means __________.A. controlB. ignoreC. developD. rescue7. The example of a woman talking on the phone in the car supports the idea that _______.A. women use cell phones more often than menB. talking on the phone while driving is dangerousC. cell phones make one-on-one personal contact easyD. cell phones do not necessarily bring people togetherCThe Exterminating AngelDirector: Luis BunuelCountry/Date : Mexico/1962 (black and white)Introduction : A party is organized in a high class society house. Many people aredrinking and eating.I t’s getting late, but nobody is leaving.Even th ough the door is open, people seem to be locked in the house.They can’t leave either the day or onthe following days.So a rescue began.The NetDirector: Irwin WinklerCountry/Date: U.S.A./1995Introduction: Angela Bennettt is a computer programmer who has devoted her life tocomputers and the Internet.She spends hours and hours in front of th e screen.She does everything over the Internet, and she has some clo se friends in a chat room,though she has never talked to her neighbors.Kung Fu PandaDirector : Mark Osborne & John StevensonCountry/Date : U.S.A./2008Introduction: The leading character is a panda whose name is Po.He i s lazy first but he has a great dream—to be a kung fu master.Tomake his dream come true, he goes to a faraway temple to learn kung fu from a master.However, one of his brothers,Tai Long wants to become the kung fu master, killing many of his br others even themaster.So Po fights against Tai Long and defeats him, The film is g ood especiallyfor kids.Life is BeautifulDirector: Roberto BenigniCountry/Date : Italy/1998Introduction: In 1939, during World WarⅡ in Italy, Guido, a hopeful man, the main character fell in love with Dora, and they got married.Five years later, their lives changed.Guido and Joshua were taken by the Nazis(纳粹)to a concentration camp and Dora also went there with her husband and son.At that place, Guido tried his best to save his son’s life in a special way.8.Who is the director of The Net?A. Irwin WinklerB. Luis BunuelC. Mark OsborneD. Roberto Benigni9.Which film is black and white?A. Life is BeautifulB. The Exterminating AngelC. Kung Fu PandaD. The Net10.Which film is especially fit for kids?A. The Exterminating AngelB. The NetC. Kung Fu PandaD. Life is Beautiful11.What can we learn about Life is Beautiful?A. It’s about a rescue of people who can’t leave a house.B. The main character is absorbed in computer.C. It was made in America in 1995.D. The story is set in World WarⅡ.DYou have never seen him, but they're with you every time you fly. They record where you are going, how fast you're traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability to withstand (经受得住)almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a magic book. They're known as the black box.When planes fall from the sky, as a Yemeni airliner did on its way to Comoros Islands in the India ocean June 30, 2009, the black box is the best bet for identifying what went wrong. So when a French submarine (潜水艇) detected the device's homing signal five days later, the discovery marked a huge step toward determining the cause of a tragedy in which 152 passengers were killed.In 1958, Australian scientist David Warren developed a flight-memory recorder that would track basic information like altitude and direction. That was the first mode for a black box, which became a requirement on all U.S. commercial flights by 1960. Early models often failed to withstand crashes, however, so in 1965 the device (装置) was completely redesigned and moved to the back of the plane – the arealeast affected by impact – from its original position in the landing wells (起落架舱). The same year, the Federal Aviation Authority required that the boxes, which were never actually black, be painted orange or yellow to aid visibility.Modern airplanes have two black boxes: a voice recorder, which tracks pilots' conversations, and a flight-data recorder, which monitors fuel levels, engine noises and other operating functions that help investigators reconstruct the aircraft's final moments. Placed in an insulated ( 隔绝的) case and surrounded by a quarter-inch-thick panels of stainless steel, the boxes can withstand massive force and temperatures up to 2,000℉. When in deep water, they're also able to emit signals from depths of 20,000 ft. Experts believe the boxes from Air France Flight 447, which crashed near Brazil on June 1,2009, are in water nearly that deep, but statistics say they're still likely to turn up. In the approximately 20 deep-sea crashes over the past 30 years, only one plane's black boxes were never recovered.12.In Paragraph 1,the author wants to say the black box_________.A. comes from a comic bookB. is an necessary device on an airplaneC. can prevent disastersD. can control the function of an airplane13.From the black box on the Yemeni airliner_________could be found.A. the scene of the crash and the degree of the damageB. the total number of passengers on boardC. homing signals sent by the pilot before the crashD. data for analyzing the cause of the crash14.Why was the black box redesigned in 1965?A. The early models often got damaged in the crash.B. New materials became available by that time.C. Too much space was needed for its device.D. The early models didn't provide the needed data.15.What do we know about the black boxes from Air France Flight 447?A. They have stopped sending homing signals.B. There is an urgent need for them to be reconstructed.C. There is still a good chance of their being recovered.D. They were destroyed somewhere near Brazil.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10 分)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。

Some people buy as many as two or three different papers.Why do people read newspapers?Newspapers supply us with news about events in our hometowns, in our country, and in other parts of the world. Today we can read about important things that took place in foreign countries on the same day they happened, even in countries far away. But hundreds of years ago, news of things took months or even years to travel from one country to another. In those times, news was often passed from one person to another and nevercompletely true. Newspapers today supply us with more than just what happened in our country or in other countries. If we want to know what the weather will be like, we can read the weather reports. If we want to find out what films are being shown, or what plays or concerts we can go to we can look in the newspapers.In many countries people put notices in newspapers if they are trying to get a job, hunting for a house or rooms that they can rent, or even when looking for a person who is lost.65. This article tells us ________.A. most people in America or England read newspapers every dayB. all people in America or England read newspapers every dayC. every person in America or England reads newspapers every dayD. all families in America or England read newspapers every day66. Today we can read in our newspapers about importantevents________.A. that took place hundreds of years agoB. that took place in faraway countries soon after they happenedC. that will take place in foreign countriesD. that will take place in the world67. Which is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. The habit of reading newspapers is found among most people.B. Newspapers not only supply us with news from all over theworld but also give us a lot of useful information.C. Hundreds of years ago news was not wholly because it wastold in spoken words.D. If you have no place to live in, you can put notice in anewspaper and then you will certainly get a room to live in.CWhat do you do if you are hit in the mouth and one of your teeth is knocked out? A dentist may be able to put the tooth back in for you, but you have to get to the dentist first. In the meantime, you have to store the tooth so that it will stay healthy.The simplest thing to do is to put the tooth back into your mouth, or you could put it in milk.. Frank Courts, a dentist at the University of Florida, worked with other researchers to find the safest way of keeping knocked-out teeth. He tried putting teeth into milk, into water, and into cell-culture medium(细胞培养液). He also tried just drying the teeth in the open air. He used teeth that had to be removed from people’s mouths for various reasons. Theteeth were put into one of the solutions(溶液) or stored in the air for one hour. Then cells from the root of the teeth were scraped off the teeth. Dr Courts and the others then studied how healthy these cells were.The cell-culture medium worked best to keep a knocked-out tooth healthy outside the mouth. However, few people keepcell-culture medium handy at home or in school. The next best thing was milk. But Dr Courts said that the best thing of all was to wash the tooth and put it right back into its socket(牙槽) in the mouth. For some people, though, this is just too painful or upsetting. So milk will do, until you get your tooth (and your mouth) to a dentist.68. This passage is mainly about______.A. how a dentist can save a knocked-out toothB. how to keep a knocked-out tooth healthyC. how Dr Courts and other researchers made their experimentsD. how to put a knocked-out tooth back into its socket69. Dr Courts tested ______.A. man-made teethB. teeth dried in the open airC. teeth pulled for various reasonsD. teeth put back in their sockets70. The best way to keep a knocked-out tooth healthy outside themouth is to store it______.A. in cell-culture mediumB. in milkC. in waterD. in the open air71. Milk can be used instead of cell-culture medium to put aknocked-out tooth in because ______.A. milk works better to keep the tooth healthyB. milk causes less painC. cell-culture medium is not usually handyD. cell-culture medium is more expensiveDThe USA is a land of immigrants. Between 1815 and 1914, the world saw the great peaceful migration in its history: 35 million people, mostly Europeans, left their homelands to start new lives in America. Why did these people risk everything by leaving their homes and families?First, one major cause of the departure among Europeanpeasants was the rise in population which in turn led to hunger. Another was politics. Many young men fled eastern Europe to avoid being forced to join the army.Physical hunger provided another pressing reason. Following the failure of the economy of southern Italy in the 1860s, hundreds of thousands decided to make a new start in America. Religion also encouraged millions to leave the Old World.In short, people chose to leave their homes for social, economic and religious reasons. As a result, by 1890 among a total population of 63 million, there were more than nine million foreign-born Americans.But what were the attractions? First of all, there was the promise of land which was so scarce in Europe. Next, factories were calling out for labor, and pay and conditions were much better than back home. Men were needed to open up the West and build the long railroads, and settlers were needed to populate new towns and develop commerce. There was the space for religious communities to practice their faith in peace.As we know, there were losers. To start with, there were those unwilling immigrants, the slaves who had been used as a source of cheap labor. Nor should we forget the equally awful fate of the American Indians. By 1860 there were 27 million free whites, four million slaves and a only 488000 free blacks.Nowadays, the USA is still seen by millions as the Promised Land. As always, it remains an attractive place to the ambitious and the energetic who are ready to commit themselves to the land that gives them a second chance.72. What is not given as a reason for emigration in the passage?A. The search for religious freedom.B. The search for adventure.C. Avoidance of military(军事的) service.D. Economics.73. The lives of 19th Century European peasants were difficultbecause ______ .A. there was no shortage of landB. there was no peaceC. the population had gone downD. there were too many of them74. Which of the following can best summarize the whole passage?A. The USA is still seen by millions as the Promised Land.B. The USA is a land of immigrants.C. Religion encouraged millions to leave the Old World.D. About one-eighth of non-native born Americans live in theUSA in 1890.75. We know from the passage that ______ __.A. All people coming to the New Land was successful.B. All people came to the USA out of their willingness.C. Some people were forced to be brought to the USA.D. the story of the Native Americans was the saddest one.第六题基础写作(共1题,满分15分)假如你是TOM,有机会参加了为期一周的“英国文化之旅”活动。

The parents’ reactio n is then negative because they are now hated instead of being admired. Most parents can’t deal with this situation and it drives them crazy. Half of parents get tired and give up all the rules, while the other half become so strict that the kids begin to hate t hem.If parents want to help their teenager get through it they need to understand what is going on which nearly all parents DON’T . This ensures that both parties will fail each other and generally cause annoyance, stress and ill will!On the other hand, the teenager needs to understand the insec urity(不安) the parent feels as the teenager increasingly has a mind of his or her own. Sure, the kid has never done anything wrong an d when the parents make improper rules or start calling that tee nager certain qualities that he or she has never had, the teenag er’s natural reaction is to fight back. Luckily for parents, teenag ers’ first reaction is rarely to hurt their parents deeply. However, they will do other things, such as drinking, taking drugs, and ha ving poor performance in school as revenge (报复) for the words and actions of their parents. What neither side understands is that they are hurting themselves and each other and the only cause is lacking the ability to consider things calm ly for both sides. Therefore, keeping calm is the first step.What is the text mainly about?Why parents and teenagers fight.B. Why some kids behave badly in school.What makes teenagers think negatively?D. How parents should make rules on teenagers.The underlined word “it’ in Paragraph 1 refers to _____.A. parents’ failure to rule teenagersB. teenagers’ revengeC. teenagers’ disrespect to parentsD. parents’ insecurity7. Some teenagers hate their parents because ____.A. they want to become coolB. their material needs aren’t satisfiedC. they want to challenge their parentsD. they get too many rules from their parents8. About the relationship between parents and teenagers, what can we learn?A. There’s no good way to deal with their fighting.B. They should think more for both sides calmly.C. Teenagers should take more responsibility than parents.D. Teenagers are likely to admire their parents after 12 years ol d.CAs a kid,I felt my happiness would be based on whether I could fulfill all my needs and wants. If I was rich,I would definitely be content with my life.My father always stressed his belief in happiness. I can remem ber him lecturing me about how money does not make one hap py and how other things in life such as health,family,friends,and memorable experiences make a person genuinely happy. At that time in my life,I did not put any thought into his words as usual.At a young age,I noticed the media seemed to portray(描绘) the wealthy as happy people that add value to our society. At high school I still sought a career that would produce a high salary.After my second year of college,I started my first job in an accounting department,where I found myself extremely bored. Every day I had to do bo ring work. In addition,I had to live away from friends and family. I noticed having mon ey to spend when you are by yourself was not satisfying.I began to think back to what my dad always said. After two mo nths on the job,I truly realized that a more satisfying experience for me would h ave been doing an ordinary parttime job for far less money. No matter how high the salary of this position was,I would never be capable of fulfilling a happy life and making a career out of this job.As the summer drew to a close,I truly understood the meaning of my dad’s words. The term “w ealth” is a broad term,and I believe the key to happiness is to become wealthy in grea t memories,friends,family,and health.9.When the author was a kid,________.A.he suffered a lot from being poorB.it worried him whether he could live happilyC.he didn’t treat his father’s advice seriouslyD.his attitude to life was greatly influenced by his father 10.What do we know about the author and his first job? A. He decided to make it his lifelong career.B.He got the job with the help of his friends.C.He didn’t earn enough money to support himself.D.He got no happiness although it was well-paid. 11.Through his experience,the author wanted to tell us that________.A.young people should listen to their parentsB.money cannot always bring you real happinessC.one should be careful in choosing his first jobD.one can learn much by doing a parttime jobDA new study links heavy air pollution from coal burning to shorte r lives in northern . Researchers estimate that the half-billion people alive there in the 1990s will live an average of 5 y ears less than their southern counterparts (两方面地位职务相当的人) because they breathed dirtier air.itself made the comparison possible: for decades, a now-discontinued government policy provided free coal for heating, but only in the colder north. Researchers found significant differ ences in both particulate pollution of the air and life expectancy in the two regions.While previous studies have found that pollution affects hum an health, "the deeper and ultimately more important question is the effect on life expectancy," said one of the researchers, Mi chael Greenstone, a professor of environmental economics at Massachusetts Institute of 一Technology. "This study provides a unique setting to answer th e life expectancy question because the heating policy dramatic ally(极大地) changes pollution concentrations(含量),Greenstone said in an email. "Further, due to the low rates of m igration(移民) in China in this period, we can know people's exposure ov er long time periods," he said.The policy gave free coal for fuel boilers to heat homes and o ffices to cities north of the Huai River which divides into north a nd south. It was in effect for much of the 1950-1980 period of central planning, and, though discontinued after 1980, it has left a legacy(遗留) in the north of heavy coal burning, which releases particul ate pollutants into the air that can harm human health. Researc hers found no other government policies that treated 's north dif ferently from the south.The researchers collected data for 90 cities, from 1981 to 20 00, on the annual daily average concentration of total suspende d(悬浮的)particulates. In , those are considered to be particulates that are100 micrometers or less in diameter, sent out from sources incl uding power stations, construction sites and vehicles. Among th em, PM2.5 is of especially great health concern because it can go deep into the lungs.The researchers estimated the impact on life expectancies u sing death data from 1991-2000. They found that in the north, the concentration of partic ulates was 184 micrograms per cubic meter一or 55 percent higher than in the south, and life expectancies we re 5.5 years lower on average across all age ranges.12.The main idea of this passage is that _____.A. the government provided free coal for heating in North Chin aB. research in finds air pollution shortened life expectancyC. coal burning causes bad air quality acrossD. a new study finds different particulates in South China 13.According to Greenstone,_______ greatly contributed to the high pollution concentrations in North China.A. gases from vehiclesB. construction sitesC. the free heating policyD. power stations14.It is implied in the passage that _______.A. coal is no longer used for heating in North ChinaB. air quality was comparatively better in South ChinaC. southerners burned coals for heating in the 1980sD. people preferred to live in South China after 1980 15.The underlined word "particulates" most probably means _ _____.A. dirty cloudsB. particular smokeC. dangerous gasesD. harmful dust第二节(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AMy dad is a wonderful man. He worked hard all his life and has never let me down. If one person influenced me to go to college and become a better person, it’s him.I moved in with my dad a few years ago. Every morning he would wake up at 4 am. He would do some writing and then leave for work. He would get off work at 5 pm and spend the remaining day with his family. Any time I needed him, he was there for me. He was a great role model. My dad is a typical family man. He bends over backwards to support his family. He supported us financially and emotionally.My dad is the reason why I try to support my son as best as I can. He is also the reason why I have decided to spend less time with friends and more time with family. Now I’m a much better woman. I have a son of my own. I once worked hard on my studies in school and now do well in my work. My dad became a manager in less than three years and I hope to do the same.

I called her last week and found out that she wasn’t doing well at work, which would make the following year a little more challenging. After hanging up the phone, I decided to offer to help her, but I couldn’t think of what to do. However, opportunities present themselves when you’re not even looking for.A few days later, some friends and I happened to be eating desserts at a restaurant in her city. As we were looking at the menu, I turned to my friends and asked them if they wanted to join in a game. After explaining the idea, they decided to take 15 minutes to make someone’s day. We ordered an extra dessert, wrote a note, added a smile card and were off. However, there was one problem: I had no idea where she was.Therefore, it was time to rely on the network. I called up a friend and got him to call her to see what she was doing and found out that she was at work.We drove to her work place and one of my friends became the delivery(投递)person. He went in to look for my friend, found her, didn’t really answer her questions and walked out, saying he’s simply delivery person.He ran out quickly and I bent down as we drove by to make sure she didn’t follow him out.

She decided to change the boy’s name because he always did poorly in study. She has had him tutored after school, but he always earns low marks in school. So Shi turned to a name-giving master. “I hope the special recipe could bring him good luck,” the mother said. Teachers in the city say a few students in every school, most nearing graduation, change their names at the start of every new semester.A naming agency said it has found names for nearly 1,000 students since setting up the shop in 1998. The store said its professionals analyzed the defects (缺点) of a person’s original name, and suggested a new one based on the person’s birthday and other fortune-telling skills. Buying a new name costs between 800 yuan and 10,000 yuan. Parents also have to register the name at the local police department for a small fee. This will legally change their child’s name on all documents, including ID cards and passports.Hu Jie, a university student who changed her name in her final yearof high school, said the new name confused her. “I always had no idea who my classmates were calling when they used my new name,” Hu said, adding that she wished she had kept her old name.But parents may be ignoring one thing: name changes might encourage kids to believe that fate is more important than their own efforts.36.

They want their children to get rid of bad habits.B. They want the new names to bring good luck to their children.C. They want their children to love them more.D.

The instructions for her son’s study after school.C. Turning to a name-giving master.D. The change of her son’s name.39. What is the writer’s attitude towards parents’ renaming their children?A. Negative.B. Positive.C. Doubtful.D. Interested.40. From the passage, we learn that ________.A. students are very satisfied with their names being changedB. name changes may have a bad effect on the development of childrenC. naming agencies change the names of children by scientific evidenceD. to register the new name at the police department is usually free of chargeDSettled by the Celts, invaded by the Romans and the Normans, and ruled by the English, Wales’ population has regularly changed over the ages. Wales, particularly South Wales, became a melting pot of European nationalities and cultures. At first workers from England, Ireland and the rural areas of Wales rushed into the coalfields of South Wales. By 1911, workers from Ireland, Italy and Spain had joined the industrial workforce there. Many of these newcomers were prepared to work for less pay.But during this period, workers, dissatisfied with regular pay cuts, poor safety, the growing trend of employers to pay workers withtokens (代币), which could only be spent in the company store, returned to the land. In 1891, the rural population of Wales was about 616,000 and by 1911 just over 649,000 people lived and worked in these areas.The rural population continues to grow slowly even today. People from richer parts of the UK, particularly southern England, are buying holiday or retirement homes in Wales. In some areas this has led to a shortage of affordable(可负担的) housing for local people. This, combined with the lack of employment prospects in rural Welsh communities, has started a new movement of people in search of jobs and homes into the towns and cities of Wales and to other parts of the UK and Europe.As so many Welsh people have migrated to other countries over the last 200 years, it’s really no surprise that many visitors come to see friends and relatives — there were 229,000 visitors in 1998. These visitors strengthen their links to their land of origin and continue to support the Welsh economy. During the hot summer days, about 28% of the visitors visit the countryside and nearly 70% visit the seaside.41. Why was South Wales so attractive to people in the early 20th century?A. Because it was rich in many different kinds of culture.B. Because people could get the highest pay there.C. Because its coal industry needed a large number of workers.D. Because people could buy holiday or retirement homes there.42. What does the writer want to tell us in the second paragraph?A. Welsh workers couldn’t get any pay for their work.B. The rural population of Wales didn’t decline at this time.C. Many people got tired of city life at this time.D. The working conditions were terrible at this time.43. From the last paragraph, we learn that most visitors come to Wales for the purpose of _____.A. visiting their friends and relativesB. supporting the Welsh economyC. enjoying a cool and pleasant summerD. all of the above44. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Tourism, the main economic source of Wales.B. Wales, a land with a promising past and future.C. Wales, the biggest melting pot of Europe.D. Wales, a land with a population on the move.45. Which of the following statement is NOT true?A .Wales became a melting pot of European nationalities and cultures.B. Tokens (代币) can be used in any store.C. By 1911, workers from Ireland, Italy and Spain had joined the industrial workforce.D. People buying holiday or retirement homes in Wales led to a shortage of housing for local people.第二节:信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)请阅读下列应用文和相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息,如果选E就在答题卡上涂AB 来代表E,如果选F在答题卡上涂CD来代表F。
