Wherever anything happens in the world, reports are on the spot to 43 the news. Newspapers have one basic 44, to get the news as quickly as possible from its source, from those who make it to those who want to 45 it. Radio, telegraph, television, and 46 inventions brought competition for newspapers. So did the development of magazines and other means of communication. 47, this competition merely spurred the newspapers on. They quicklymade use of the newer and faster means of communication to improve the 48 and thus the efficiency of their own operations. Today more newspapers are 49 and read than ever before. Competition also led newspapers to branch out into many other fields.Besides keeping readers 50 of the latest news, today's newspapers 51 and influence readers about politics and other important and serious matters. Newspapers influence readers'economic choices 52 advertising. Most newspapers depend on advertising for their very 53. Newspapers are sold at a price that 54 even a small fraction of the cost of production. The main 55 of income for most newspapers is commercial advertising. The 56 in selling advertising depends on a newspaper's value to advertisers. This 57 in terms of circulation. How many people read the newspaper? Circulation depends 58 on the work of the circulation department and on the services or entertainment 59 in a newspaper's pages.

That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out, but problems are that some aging parents are not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution：families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parentscan have some quiet time and feel free to do something they've been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won't be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.61. Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because .A、they have to look after their kidsB、they have to look after their parentsC、they are busy with their workD、they have no money62. In Paragraph 2, “a way out” means .A、out of dateB、a solutionC、without questionD、a complaint63. According to the last paragraph, the solution to the problem of post-80s couples is that .A、families with kids form a small groupB、they ask their aging parents for helpC、they give up their jobsD、they take their kids wherever they go64. What is (are) the advantage(s) of baby-pooling?A、The parents can have much more free time.B、The kids can make new friends.C、The kids won't be hanging around their parents all day long.D、All of the above.65. The passage mainly discusses .A、post-80s couples and their friendsB、post-80s couples and baby-poolingC、post-80s couples and their parentsD、kids and their grandparentsPassage TwoIt is a terrible illustration of man's weakness to nature, and the tsunami(海啸) that struck the Japanese coast in March, 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-warning systems, public education programs and evacuation(疏散) strategies. Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international warning systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early warning system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it's close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.66. The first paragraph tells us that .A、man can easily defeat the natureB、tsunamis take place only in JapanC、man's ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD、the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible67. To prevent tsunami-damage, the following measures can be taken EXCEPT .A、designing firm buildingsB、developing early-warning systemsC、developing evacuation strategiesD、keeping the public unaware of the seriousness of tsunamis68. According to the passage, which of the following can cause a tsunami?A、Storms.B、Massive waves.C、Underwater earthquakes.D、Floods.69. When a tsunami happens, the best course of action for people is to .A、listen to radio and television broadcasts for informationB、get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possibleC、stay where they areD、rely on the warning systems70. Which of the following statements is correct according to the passage?A、The total prevention of tsunamis is possible.B、Rich countries are less affected by tsunamis than poor countries.C、Approaching tsunamis can possibly be picked up by sensors.D、An early warning system is effective when a tsunami is close by.Passage ThreeGlobal warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about ＄125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster, population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition(营养不良) and heat-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk, who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr., a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum's report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable(易受伤害的) regions. Dr. Pielke said that—climate change is an important problem requiring our utmo st attention. But the report, he said, “will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed(有瑕疵的)”.However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90％of the human and economic losses from climate change are occurring in poor countries, according to the report.71. What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A、Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B、Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C、Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D、Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.72. What do we learn about the Forum's report from the passage?A、It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B、It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C、It was warmly received by environmentalists.D、It caused a big stir in developing countries.73. What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum's report?A、Its statistics look embarrassing.B、It is invalid in terms of methodology.C、It deserves our closest attention.D、Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.74. What is Soren Andreasen's view of the report?A、Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B、It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C、It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D、Its rough estimates are meant to draw the attention of world leaders.75. What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?A、How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B、How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C、How emissions of heat-trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D、How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.Passage FourReaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland, where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best. “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water，” He says. But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact, New York's municipal water for more than a century was called the champagne of tap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England foundthat tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were 400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for market share—this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water：PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's Dasani are both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate(垂涎) over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often 300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brands aren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sell bottled water. According to an article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the dinners if they want it.Regardless of how it's sold, the popularity of bottled water taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76. What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A、It is a kind of iced water.B、It is just plain tap water.C、It is a kind of bottled water.D、It is a kind of mineral water.77. By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water” (Para. 2), von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that .A、plain tap water is certainly unfit for drinkingB、bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC、bottled water often appeals more to dogs' tasteD、dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78. The fancier brands (Para. 5) refers to .A、tap water from the Thames RiverB、famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC、PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's DasaniD、expensive bottled water with impressive names79. Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A、Bottled water brings in huge profits.B、Competition from the wine industry is intense.C、Most diners find bottled water affordable.D、Bottled water satisfies diners' desire to be fashionable.80. According to the passage, why is bottled water so popular?A、It is much cheaper than wine.B、It is considered healthier.C、It appeals to more cultivated people.D、It is more widely promoted in the market.四、翻译题（每小题2分，共40分）81. 只要明天天气好,我们就和同学一起去游泳。

Y ou should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Many post -80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents arc not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel freeto do something they've been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby -pooling.61.Many post -80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because_____.A .they have to look after their kids B. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money62.In paragraph 2,“ a way out” means. ______A. out of dateB. a solutionC. without questionD. a complaint63.According to the last paragraph, the solution to the problem of post-80s couples isthat _____ .A. families with kids form a small groupB. they ask their aging parents for helpC. they give up their jobsD. they lake their kids wherever they go64.What is( are) the advantage(s) of baby -pooling?A.The parents can have much more free time.B.The kids can make new friends.C.The kids won't be hanging around their parents all day long.D.

But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-warming systems, public education programs and evacuation( 拔散） strategics.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it's close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is lo get inland and to the higherground as quickly as possible.66.The first paragraph tells us that _____ .A.man can easily defeat the natureB.tsunamis take place only in JapanC.man's ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD.the tsunami- damage in Japan is not so terrible67.To prevent tsunami -damage, the following measures can be taken EXCEPT______A.designing firm buildings、B.developing early -warning systemsC.developing evacuation strategicsD.keeping the public unaware of the seriousness of tsunamis68.According to the passage , which of the following can cause a tsunami_____?A. Storms.B. Massive waves.C. Underwater earthquakes.D. Floods69.When a tsunami happens, the best course of action for people is to_____.A.listen to radio and television broadcasts for informationB.get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possibleC.stay where they areD.rely on the warning systemsPassage 3Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.The report, to be released Friday,analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster,population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition( 营养不良）and heal-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate c hange. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado,Boulder,who studies disaster trends, said the Forum's report was “ amethodological embarrassment”because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to h uman-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable( 易受伤害的)regions.Dr. Pielke said that“climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.“ But the report, he said,''will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed ( 有瑕疵的 ). ”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report,defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards whilestill curbing the emissions of the heat -trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic losses from climate change arc occurring in poor countries, according to the report.71.What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A. Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B.Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C.Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D.Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.72.What do we learn about the Forum's report from the passage?A.It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B.It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C.It was warmly received by environmentalists.D.It caused a big stir in developing countries.73.What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum's report?A.Its statistics look embarrassing.B.It is invalid in terms of methodology.C.It deserves our closest attention.D.Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.74.What is Soren Andreasen’ s view of the report?A. Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B. It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C. It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D. Its rough estimates arc meant to draw the attention of world leaders.75.What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?A.How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B.How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C.How emissions of heat -trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D.How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.Passage 4Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergsoff the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland,where bottled wateris consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best“ my dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's municipal water for morethan a century was called the champagne of lap water and until recently considered among the best in the world interms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the ThamesRiver tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle -ground for marketshare-this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo's Aquafina andCoca-Cola's Dasani arc both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate( 垂涎 )over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark -up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brandsaren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sen bottled water.According toan article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottleson the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it’ s sold,the popularity of bottled whaler taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76.What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A.lt is a kind of iced water.B.It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77.By saying“ My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2),V on Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that_____?A .plain tap whaler is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC.bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD.dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78.The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to____.A.tap water from the Thames RiverB.famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC.PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca -Cola's DasaniD.expensive bottled water with impressive names79.Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A. Bottled water brings in huge profits.B. Competition from the wine industry is intense.C. Most diners find bottled water affordable.D.Bottled water satisfied diners' desire to fashionable.80.According to passage, why is bottled whaler so popular?A. It is much cheaper than wine.B.It is considered healthier.C. lt appeals to more cultivated people.D. It is more widely promoted in the market.Part Ⅰ Translation( 2 x 10 )Directions: There are10 sentences in this section.

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Y ou should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents arc not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel freeto do something they've been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.61.Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because_____.A .they have to look after their kids B. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money62.In paragraph 2, “a way out” means ______.A. out of dateB. a solutionC. without questionD. a complaint63.According to the last paragraph, the solution to the problem of post-80s couples isthat _____ .A. families with kids form a small groupB. they ask their aging parents for helpC. they give up their jobsD. they lake their kids wherever they go64.What is( are) the advantage(s) of baby-pooling?A.The parents can have much more free time.B.The kids can make new friends.C.The kids won't be hanging around their parents all day long.D. All of the above.65.The passage mainly discusses_____ ?A. post-80s couples and their friendsB. post-80s couples and baby-poolingC. post-80s couples and their parentsD. kids and their grandparentsPassage2It is a terrible illustration of man ' s weakness to nature .and the tsunami(^^) that struck the Japanese coast in March. 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-warming systems, public education programs and evacuation( 拔散）strategics.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it's close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is lo get inland and to the higherground as quickly as possible.66.The first paragraph tells us that _____ .A.man can easily defeat the natureB.tsunamis take place only in JapanC.man's ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD.the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible67.To prevent tsunami-damage, the following measures can be taken EXCEPT______A.designing firm buildings 、B.developing early-warning systemsC.developing evacuation strategicsD.keeping the public unaware of the seriousness of tsunamis68.According to the passage , which of the following can cause a tsunami_____?A.

Floods69.When a tsunami happens, the best course of action for people is to_____.A.listen to radio and television broadcasts for informationB.get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possibleC.stay where they areD.rely on the warning systemsPassage 3Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster,population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition (营养不良）and heal-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum's report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受伤害的)regions. Dr. Pielke said that “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention. “But the report, he said, ''will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的).”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic losses from climate change arc occurring in poor countries, according to the report.71. What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A. Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B.Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C.Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D.Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.72. What do we learn about the Forum's report from the passage?A.It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B.It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C.It was warmly received by environmentalists.D.It caused a big stir in developing countries.73.What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum's report?A.Its statistics look embarrassing.B.It is invalid in terms of methodology.C.It deserves our closest attention.D.Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.74.What is Soren Andreasen’s view of the report?A. Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B. It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C. It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D. Its rough estimates arc meant to draw the attention of world leaders.75. What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?A. How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B. How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C.How emissions of heat-trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D.How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.Passage 4Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland,where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best “my dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's municipal water for morethan a century was called the champagne of lap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for marketshare-this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's Dasani arc both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate(垂涎)over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brandsaren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sen bottled water.According toan article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottleson the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it’s sold, the popularity of bottled whaler taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76.What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A.lt is a kind of iced water.B.It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77.By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2),V on Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that_____?A .plain tap whaler is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC.bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD.dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78.The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to____.A.tap water from the Thames RiverB.famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC.PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's DasaniD.expensive bottled water with impressive names79.Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A. Bottled water brings in huge profits.B. Competition from the wine industry is intense.C. Most diners find bottled water affordable.D.Bottled water satisfied diners' desire to fashionable.80.According to passage, why is bottled whaler so popular?A. It is much cheaper than wine.B.It is considered healthier.C. lt appeals to more cultivated people.D. It is more widely promoted in the market.PartⅠ Translation ( 2 x 10 )Directions: There are 10 sentences in this section.

That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own,no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents arc not strongenough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents. Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can taketurns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel freeto do something they've been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' tbe hanging around their parents all day long.

But there is much that can be done to minimize damage andloss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developingearly-warming systems,public education programs and evacuation( 拔散）strategics.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possiblypicked up by the sensors of complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and televisionbroadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.精品文档．精品文档But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it's close by, the warning system is notgoing to be very effective.

It found that human-influenced climate change was raising theglobal death rates from illnesses including malnutrition (营养不良）and heal-related healthproblems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate andrisk,whoquestioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people,primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that thenumber would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studiesdisaster trends, said the Forum's report was “a methodological embarrassment”because there was no way todistinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger lossesresulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受伤害的)regions. Dr. Pielke said that “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.“But the report, he said, ''will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is sodeeply flawed (有瑕疵的).”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised thewriting of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said thereport was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new internationalclimate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus onincreasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards whilestill curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic losses fromclimate change arc occurring in poor countries, according to the report.71. What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?精品文档．精品文档A.

Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B. It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C.

As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland,where bottled wateris consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best “my dog could tell thedifference between bottled and tap water,”He says.But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's municipal water for more than a century was called the champagne of lap water and until recently considered among the best in the world interms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the ThamesRiver tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for market share-this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo's Aquafina andCoca-Cola's Dasani arc both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate(垂涎)over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brandsaren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sen bottled water.According toan article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles精品文档．精品文档on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without evenasking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it's sold, the popularity of bottled whaler taps into our desire for better health, ourwish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76.What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A.lt is a kind of iced water.B.It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77.By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2),V on Wiesenbergerwants to convey the message that_____?A .plain tap whaler is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC.bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD.dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78.The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to____.A.tap water from the Thames RiverB.famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC.PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's DasaniD.expensive bottled water with impressive names79.Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A. Bottled water brings in huge profits.B. Competition from the wine industry is intense.C. Most diners find bottled water affordable.精品文档．精品文档D.Bottled water satisfied diners' desire to fashionable.80.According to passage, why is bottled whaler so popular?A.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneMy love of nature goes right back to my childhood, to the times when I stayed on my g randparent’s farm in Suffolk.I think it was my grandmother who encouraged me more than anyone：she taught me the names of wildflowers and got me interested in looking at the countryside, so it seemed obvious to go on to do Zoology at university.I didn’t get my first camera until after I’d graduated, when I was due to go diving in Norway and needed a method of recording the sea creatures I would find there. My father didn’t know anything about photography, but he bought me an Exacta, which was really quite a good camera for the time, and I went off to take my first pictures of sea anemones(海葵)andstarfish(海星). I became keen very quickly, and I learnt how to develop and print.I’ve tried from the beginning to produce pictures which are always biologically correct. There are people who will alter things deliberately: you don’t pick up sea creatures from the middle of the shore and take them down to attractive pools at thebottom of the shore without knowing you’re doing it.There can be a lot of ignorance in people’s behavior towards wild animals and it’s a problem that more and more people are going to wild places: while some animals may get used to cars, they won’t get used to people suddenly rushing up to them. The sheer pressure of people, coupled with the fact there are increasingly few places where no one else has photographed, means that over the years, life has become much more difficult for the professional wildlife photographers.Nevertheless, wildlife photographers play a very important part in educating people about what is out there and what needs conserving. Although photography can be an enjoyable pastime, as it is to many people, it is also something that plays a very important part in educating young and old alike.31.The author decided to go to university and study Zoology because .A.she wanted to improve her life in the countrysideB.she was persuaded to do so by her grandmotherC.she was keen on the natural worldD.she wanted to stop moving around all the time32.How is the author different from some of the other wildlife photographers she meets? .A.She tries to make her photographs as attractive as possibleB.S he takes photographs which record accurate natural conditionsC.S he likes to photograph plants as well as wildlife.D.S he knows the best places to find wildlife.33.The author now finds it more difficult to photograph wild animals because .A. there are fewer of themB. they have become more nervous of peopleC. it is harder to find suitable placesD. they have become frightened of cars34.According to the author, wildlife photography is important because i t can make people realize that .A. photography is an enjoyable hobbyB. we learn little about wildlife at schoolC. it is worthwhile visiting the countrysideD. it is important to look after wild animals35.Which of the following describes the author? .A. ProudB. SensitiveC. AggressiveD. DisappointedPassage TwoDuring the past few years, the popularization of the Internet, by lowering the cost of global communication to moderate levels, is leading to a near-perfect market for information. It has bred enterprises that grow and change with astonishing speed, creating millionaires and invigorating the economy. The Net has brought to even poor libraries a wealth of resources at very low cost. It has enabled individuals to speak in forums small and large, with an ease and fluency that would delight the founders of this nation, if they could see email, the World Wide Web, Usenet, and online chat.The tremendous good done by the popularization of the Internet has caused some problems, of course. Chief among these are a weakening of privacy, greater exposure for matters that most people would prefer were absent from society, such as hate speech and child pornography, and an increased risk of one’s children(or oneself) being confronted by an image or text that better might have been left unseen. The Internet has brought the entire world into the living room, but some people are finding that there are certain parts of the world they would prefer not to have anywhere in their home. An example that has become an everyday displeasure for many is junk email, also called “spam”. On a bad day, up to 30 ％of the email processed by major Internet service providers is spam, much of it promoting sex sites and get rich quick schemes. Many people have had to abandon their email accounts, as they become filled with trash. Left unchecked, spam could spoil the great public good of the Internet.36.The popularization of the Internet may stimulate the prosperity of the economy in that .A.it provides information at high speed and low costB.it creates many chances for enterprisesC.it helps to encourage technical innovationsD.enterprises are growing quickly37.There is an increased risk for children with the popularization of the Internet because they are l ikely to .A. express their ideas freely while onlineB. be exposed to unhealthy informationC. make dangerous friends when chatting onlineD. confuse what is good with what is bad38.According to the passage, the Internet .A.shows us pictures of the world in the living roomB.brings us into contact with the current issues of the worldC.provides easy access to information from all over the worldD.enables us to keep in touch with anyone in the world39.Junk email is used as an example to demonstrate the Internet may .A. help people become millionaires quicklyB. bring great troubles to one’s lifeC. give excitement to peopleD. bring about an age of information40.What is the writer’s attitude toward the Internet? .A. ApprovingB. DisapprovingC. CriticalD. NeutralPassage ThreeTo Whom It May Concern, Scott Smith worked for me at XYZ Technologies for three years, as a senior technical instructor. I am writing this letter of recommendation to confirm that his recent layoff from XYZ was not in any way tied to his performance, and to highly recommend him as an employee with your organization. Had I been the choice, I would not have laid Scott off. But it was not my decision to make. XYZ decided to withdraw from the PC market, balance expenses with the anticipated reduction in sales revenue, and hire a consulting firm to evaluate long term staffing needs. As a result, XYZ drastically reduced the size of its workforce by dissolving the entire PC division, including the technical training department. Unfortunately, this major reorganization left no other position open for Scott. We regretfully had to let him go.Scott is a conscientious, highlyskilled technical instructor, worthy of at least a senior or management position. He has keen insight into the learning process, and is an expert in needs analysis, project management, course development, and classroom instruction.Scott’s in depth product knowledge, unique instructional techniques, and excellent people skills have consistently received admiring reviews from his students. Should cond itions at XYZ change, I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him back.If you would like to speak to me about Scott’s skills, talents and work habits,feel free to call (123) 555-0002 or page me by dialing (123) 555-0003.Sincerely, Mary Doe Vice President, Technical Services41.Mary Doe wrote this letter in order to .A. praise Scott Smith for his excellent workB. support Scott Smith’s job applicationC. promote Scott Smith to a higher positionD. look for a technical instructor like Scott Smith42.XYZ Technologies reduced the size of its workforce because .A. some departments did not work wellB. its sales revenue fell dramaticallyC. it is faced with serious financial problemD. it decided to give up the PC market43.Scott Smith has been laid off because of .A. the reorganization of XYZ TechnologiesB. his poor performance in technical workC. his poor physical and mental conditionD. the prejudice of the Vice President44.Which of the following might be the relationship between Scott Smith and Mary Doe? .A. Close friendsB. ColleaguesC. Employee and supervisorD. Student and instructor45.Which is NOT true about Scott Smith? .A. He gets along well with colleaguesB. His students admire him very muchC. He is good at project managementD. He is applying to a consulting firm for a jobPassage FourI used to go to Starbucks for their coffee, but that’s changed since I discovered their comforting, tasty teas, which are better than coffee any time, Tea is cool even when it's hot. People drink more tea than any other drink in the world, except for water.Whether it's served hot or cold, natural and flavored teas are drinks that have been consumed for centuries. Everywhere you look, you’ll find various kin ds of teas- in restaurants, grocery stores, television advertisements, and gift shops.Why is there all this excitement about tea? What’s its attraction? Well, there are many possibilities for why more and more people are drinking tea. One possibility is that people are coming to notice the benefits of drinking tea, particularly green tea. Studies show that drinking four cups of green tea a day can reduce the risk of developing various types of cancers, as well as heart disease. The key to tea’s effects of cure seems to lie in chemicals found in tea which prevent a process that leads to the growth of cancers. Green tea may also prevent skin cancer. It has also been linked with helping the body to rid itself of harmful materials, and green tea is thought to possibly protect against colds and Parkinson(帕金森)disease.Another explanation for why people are drinking more tea may be due to the comforting process of just making a cup of tea. The time it takes to prepare tea leaves in hot water and enjoy its gentle flavor forces drinkers to slow down and relax a while, making it the perfect way to improve a world where people are so crazy about cappuccino, a hot coffee with milk in it.So, whether you drink tea, eat it in foods, wear it to smell good, or take it in pills, one thing is certain, the use of tea is more than a trend-it is a habit of our past and if studies prove the benefits of its use, it will undoubtedly be an important element of our future.46.Nowadays, among all the drinks in the world, tea is .A. the most widely consumed drinkB. as widespread as coffeeC. even more widely consumed than wuterD. the second most widely consumed drink47.The passage does not mention as a possible benefit of drinking tea.A. preventing skin cancerB. helping the body to rid itself of harmful materialsC. curing Parkinson’s diseaseD. reducing the risk of developing cancer48.It is good to drink tea because the time it takes to prepare a cup of tea .A. allows the tea leaves to absorb enough waterB. enables drinkers to relaxC. is suitable for people to get some newsD. can improve the quality of cappuccino49.The writer suggests that in the future people will probably .A. follow the trend and go on drinking teaB. drink more water than teaC. form the habit of eating tea leaves in foodsD. take tea as an important part of their life50.The passage is mainly about .A. the benefits of drinking teaB. the benefits of drinking coffeeing tea leaves in fortune tellingD. advising people to drink tea and waterPartⅢ Cloze (1×20)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.Effective communication with people of different cultures is especially challenging, Cultures 51 People with ways of thinking-ways of seeing, hearing, and interpreting the world. Thus the same words can 52 different thing to peoplefrom different cultures, even when they talk the “same” language. When the languages are different, and translation has to be used to communicate, the 53 for misunderstandings increase.Stella Ting-Toomey describes three ways in which culture 54 with effective cross-cultural understanding. First is what she 55 “cognitive” constraints(认知约束). These are the world 56 that provide a situation that all new information is compared to or inserted into.Second are “ 57 constraints”. Each culture has its own rules about proper behavior which 58 verbal and nonverbal communication. Whether one person_59 the other person in the eye or not is one thing that varies from one culture to the next. Whether one says what one means publicly or talks 60 the issue is another. How close the people stand to each other when they are talking is a third. All of these and many more are 61 of politeness which differ from culture to culture. Ting-Toomey's third 62 is "emotional constraints". Different cultures 63 the diaply of emotion differently. Some cultures get very emotional when they are debating a(n) 64 . They yell, they cry, they exhibit their anger, fear, frustration, and other feelings openly. Other cultures try to keep their emotions 65. They exhibit or share only the "rational" or factual 66 of the situation.All of these differences tend to 67 to communication problems. If the people 68 are not aware of the potential for such problems, they are even more likely to fall victim to them. Even so, it takes more than 69 to overcome these problems and communicate effectively across cultures. It also takes patience and 70 to bridge the sometimes large differences between cultures.

That' s the way most parents are livingtheir lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visitfrien ds, not eve n a cha nee of promoti on in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that someaging pare nts are not strong eno ugh to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their gran dpare nts.Then, here comes a solutio n: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel free to do something they' ve been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their pare nts all day long. This is baby-pooli ng.61. Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties becauseA .they have to look after their kids B. they have to look aftertheir pare ntsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money62. In paragraph 2, “a way out ” meansA. out of dateB. a soluti onC. without questio nD.a complai nt63. According to the last paragraph, the solution to the problem of post-80s couplesis that .A. families with kids form a small groupB. they ask their agi ng pare ntsfor helpC. they give up their jobsD. they take their kids whereverthey go64. What is( are) the adva ntage(s) of baby-pooli ng?A. The pare nts can have much more free time.B. The kids can make new frien ds.C. The kids won't be hanging around their pare nts all day long.D. All of the above.65. The passage mainly discusses _____ _______A. post-80s couples and their friendsB. post-80s couples andbaby-pooli ngC. post-80s couples and their pare ntsD. kids and their gran dpare ntsPassage2It is a terrible illustration of man ' s weakness to nature ,and the tsunami(海啸)that struck the Japa nese coast in March, 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighti ng aga in st n atural disasters, eve n for a prosperous n atio n.Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can bedone to minimize damageand loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildi ngs, and develop ing early-warm ing systems, public educati on programs and evacuati on( 疏散)strategies.Moreover, the approach of a tsun ami is possibly picked up by the sen sors of complicated intern ati onal warm ing systems. Coun tries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn thepublic.But an early warm ing system depe nds on how far the tsun ami strikes, if it' s close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like un derwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.66. The first paragraph tells us that . _______A. man can easily defeat the n atureB. tsun amis take place only in Japa nC. man's ability to cope with n atural disasters is limitedD. the tsun ami-damage in Japa n is not so terrible67. To preve nt tsun ami-damage, the followi ng measures can be take n EXCEPTA. desig ning firm build ingsB. develop ing early-war ning systemsC. develop ing evacuatio n strategiesD. keep ing the public un aware of the serious ness of tsun amis68. Accord ing to the passage , which of the followi ng can cause a tsun ami ?A. Storms.B. Massive waves.C. Un derwater earthquakes.D. Floods69. When a tsun ami happe ns, the best course of action for people is to .A. listen to radio and television broadcasts for informationB. get i nland and to the higher ground as quickly as possibleC. stay where they areD. rely on the warning systems70. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The total preve nti on of tsun amis is possible.B. Rich countries are less affected by tsunamis than poor countries.C. Approach ing tsun amis can possibly be picked up by sen sors.D. An early warni ng system is effective whe n a tsun ami is close by.Passage 3~|Global warm ing is caus ing more tha n 300,000 deaths and about $125 billi on in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an orga ni zati on led by Annan, the former Un ited Natio ns secretary gen eral.The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster, population and economic trends. It found that human-influeneed climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition （营养不良）and heat-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk, who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the nu mber would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scie ntist at the Uni versity of Colorado, Boulder,who studies disaster trends, said the Forum' s report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populati ons and econo mic developme nt in vuln erable （易受伤害的）regi ons. Dr. Pielke said that “ climate cha nge is an importa nt problem requiri ngour utmost attention. ” But the report, he said, “will harm the cause for actionon both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed （有瑕疵的）.”However, Soren An drease n, a social scie ntist at Dalberg Global Developme nt Partners who supervised the writ ing of the report, defe nded it, say ing that it wasclear that the nu mbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describ ing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the n eed for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions tohelp reduce their vul nerability to climate hazards while still curb ing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90%of the humanand economic losses from climatechange are occurring in poor countries, according to the report.71. What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A. Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B. Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C. Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D. Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.72. What do we learn about the Forum ' s report from the passage?A. It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B. It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C. It was warmly received by environmentalists.D. It caused a big stir in developing countries.73. What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum ' s report?A. Its statistics look embarrassing.B. It is in valid in terms of methodology.C. It deserves our closest attention.D. Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.74. What is Soren An drease n ' s view of the report? |A. Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B. It is vuln erable to criticism if the statistics are closely exam in ed.C. It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D. Its rough estimates are meant to draw the attention of world leaders.75. What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Cope nhage n conferen ce?A. How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B. How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C. How emissions of heat-trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D. How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.Passage 4Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfo un dla nd. Can ada.Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the fewwater critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland, where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best. “My dog could tell the differenee between bottled and tap water, ” He says.But is pla in tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact, NewYork' s municipal water for more than a century was called the champagne of tap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were 400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for market share —this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca - Cola's Dasani are both purified tapwater rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate ( 垂涎) over the profits. A restaurant 's typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it 's often 300 to 500 percent. But since water is mu ch cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brands aren 't available in stores, most diners don 't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sell bottled water. According to an article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it 's sold, the popularity of bottled water taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76. What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A. It is a kind of iced water.B. It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77. By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line4 Para2), Von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that _______ .A .plain tap water is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC. bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD. dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78. The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to ______ .A. tap water from the Thames RiverB. famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC. PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca -Cola's DasaniD. expensive bottled water with impressive names79. Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A. Bottled water brings in huge profits.B. Competition from the wine industry is intense.C. Most diners find bottled water affordable.D. Bottled water satisfied diners ' desire to fashionable.80. Accord ing to passage, why is bottled water so popular?A. It is much cheaper tha n wine.B. It is con sidered healthier.C. lt appeals to more cultivated people.D. It is more widely promoted in the market.Part IV Tran slatio n(2 x 10)Directions : There are 10 senten ces in this part.Please tran slate senten ces 81-85 from Chin ese into En glish,a nd tra nslate sentences 86-90 from En glish into Chin ese,Write your an swer on the An swer Sheet.81. 只要明天天气好，我们就和同学一起去游泳。

That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents arc not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends.

It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition (营养不良）and heal-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum's report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受伤害的)regions. Dr. Pielke said that “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention. “But the report, he said, ''will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的).”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagenin December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiationsto focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerabilityto climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90%of the human and economic losses from climate change arc occurring in poor countries, accordingto the report.71. What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A.

Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B. It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C.

As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland,where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best “my dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's municipal water for morethan a century was called the champagne of lap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for market share-this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's Dasani arc both purified tap water rather than spring water. As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate(垂涎)over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often 300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brands aren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sen bottled water.According to an article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it’s sold, the popularity of bottled whaler taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76.What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A.lt is a kind of iced water.B.It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77.By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2),Von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that_____?A .plain tap whaler is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC.bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD.dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78.The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to____.A.tap water from the Thames RiverB.famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC.PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's DasaniD.expensive bottled water with impressive names79.Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A. Bottled water brings in huge profits.B. Competition from the wine industry is intense.C.

That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents arc not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel free to do something they've been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.61.Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because_____ .A .they have to look after their kids B. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money62.In paragraph 2, “a way out” m eans ______ .A. out of dateB. a solutionC. without questionD. a complaint63.According to the last paragraph, the solution to the problem of post-80s couples isthat _____ .A. families with kids form a small groupB. they ask their aging parents for helpC. they give up their jobsD. they lake their kids wherever they go64.What is( are) the advantage(s) of baby-pooling?A.The parents can have much more free time.B.The kids can make new friends.C.The kids won't be hanging around their parents all day long.D.

You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That's the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents arc not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel freeto do something they've been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.61.Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because .A .they have to look after their kids B. they have to look after their parentsC.they are busy with their workD. they have no money62.In paragraph 2, “a way out” means .A. out of dateB. a solutionC. without questionD. a complaint63.According to the last paragraph, the solution to the problem of post-80s couples isthat .A. families with kids form a small groupB. they ask their aging parents for helpC. they give up their jobsD. they lake their kids wherever they go64.What is( are) the advantage(s) of baby-pooling?A.The parents can have much more free time.B.The kids can make new friends.C.The kids won't be hanging around their parents all day long.D.All of the above.65.The passage mainly discusses ?A.post-80s couples and their friendsB. post-80s couples and baby-poolingC. post-80s couples and their parentsD. kids and their grandparentsPassage2It is a terrible illustration of man ' s weakness to nature .and the tsunami(^^) that struck the Japanese coast in March. 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-warming systems, public education programs and evacuation( 拔散）strategics.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it's close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is lo get inland and to the higherground as quickly as possible.66.The first paragraph tells us that .A.m an can easily defeat the natureB.t sunamis take place only in JapanC.m an's ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD.t he tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible67.To prevent tsunami-damage, the following measures can be taken E XCEPTA.d esigning firm buildings 、B.developing early-warning systemsC.developing evacuation strategicsD.keeping the public unaware of the seriousness of tsunamis68.According to the passage , which of the following can cause a tsunami ?A.Storms.B.

Floods69.When a tsunami happens, the best course of action for people is to .A.l isten to radio and television broadcasts for informationB.g et inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possibleC.s tay where they areD.r ely on the warning systemsPassage 3Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster,population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition ( 营养不良）and heal-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum's report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受伤害的) regions. Dr. Pielke said that “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention. “But the report, he said, ''will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的).”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic losses from climate change arc occurring in poor countries, according to the report.71.What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A.Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B.R ates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C.Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D.Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.72.What do we learn about the Forum's report from the passage?A.I t was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B.I t aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C.I t was warmly received by environmentalists.D.I t caused a big stir in developing countries.73.W hat does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum's report?A.I ts statistics look embarrassing.B.I t is invalid in terms of methodology.C.I t deserves our closest attention.D.I ts conclusion is purposely exaggerated.74.W hat is Soren Andreasen’s view of the report?A.Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B.It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C.It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D.Its rough estimates arc meant to draw the attention of world leaders.75.What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?A.How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B.How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C.H ow emissions of heat-trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D.H ow rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards.Passage 4Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland,where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best “my dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's municipal water for morethan a century was called the champagne of lap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for marketshare-this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's Dasani arc both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate(垂涎)over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brandsaren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sen bottled water.According toan article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottleson the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it’s sold,the popularity of bottled whaler taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76.W hat do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A.l t is a kind of iced water.B.It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77.B y saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2),Von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that ?A .plain tap whaler is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC.bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD.dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78.The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to .A.tap water from the Thames RiverB.famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC.PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's DasaniD.expensive bottled water with impressive names79.Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?A.Bottled water brings in huge profits.petition from the wine industry is intense.C.Most diners find bottled water affordable.D.B ottled water satisfied diners' desire to fashionable.80.According to passage, why is bottled whaler so popular?A.It is much cheaper than wine.B.I t is considered healthier.C.lt appeals to more cultivated people.D.It is more widely promoted in the market.PartⅣTranslation ( 2 x 10 )Directions: There are 10 sentences in this section.

But there is much that can be done to damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, anddeveloping early-warming systems, public education programs and evacuation（拔散）strategics.Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international warming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker for help minimizenetworks to warn the public.But an early warming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it's close by, thewarning system is not going to be very effective.

It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition （营养不良）andheal-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr.a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster tr ends, said the Forum's report was “ a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths oreconomic losses related to human-driven global warmingamid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economicdevelopment in vulnerable （易受伤害的）regions. Dr. Pielke said that climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention. “ But the report, he said, ''will harm thecause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed （有瑕疵的）. ”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners whosupervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of moneyfrom rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases.

Passage 4Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland,where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best “ my dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water, ” He says.But is plain tap water all that bad? Not at all. In fact. New York's municipal water for morethan a century was called the champagne of lap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tastedbetter than several leading brands of bottled water that were400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for marketshare-this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water:PepsiCo's Aquafina and Coca-Cola's Dasani arc both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate( 垂涎)over the profits.A restaurant's typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it's often 300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brands aren't available in stores, most diners don't notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sen bottled water.According toan article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it ' s sold, the popularity of bottled whaler taps into our desire forbetter health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.76. W hat do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?A.lt is a kind of iced water.B.It is just plain tap water.C .It is a kind of bottled water.D .It is a kind of mineral water.77. _______________________________________ By saying “ My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water (Line 4 Para2),Von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that ?A .plain tap whaler is certainly unfit for drinkingB .bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterC.bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasteD. dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste78. ____________________________________ The-fancier brands (Line 3 Para 5) refers to .A.tap water from the Thames RiverB. famous wines not sold in ordinary storesC.
