City planners and private inventors are finding that good buildings, no matter how old , can be remodeled for new purposes. “If you’d asked someone four or five years ago whether he’d rent an apartment in an abandoned piano factory or clothing warehouse(大商店), he’d have thought you were crazy,,” says a New York architect. “Today, many people are eager to do it.”Only a few decades ago, renovation was unpopular and generally far more expensive than taking down abandoned9(抛弃) buildings and starting from the beginning. A change began in the 1990s with a number of well-advertised projects. They included Chirardelli Square in San Francisco, where an old chocolate factory was renovated and made into shops and restaurants, Trolley Square in Salt Lake City, where an abandoned car warehouse became a shopping centre.What caused the change? “ One reason is nostalgia(怀旧),” a san Francisco builder suggests. “Maybe old is better than new, many people are saying. Feelings about preserving attractive or historic buildings have changed a great deal.” A second cause is economy. The cost of tearing down an old building and constructing a new one from nothing now has risen to the point where it is often less expensive to fix a solid older structure.Even when the costs of renovation are the same as or a bit more than the costs of putting up a new building, fixing the old building may be better. Gradually, architects and builders are developing knowledge about renovation and preservation, bringing imagination and creativity to the job.46. In the United States, renovating old creativity to the job___________.A. has a long historyB. is a new trendC. is still unpopularD. is out of date47. What’s the purpose of this passage?A. Call on people to renovate old buildingsB. Report a change—renovation in AmericaC. Encourage people to make use of old buildingD. Introduce a new method of renovating old buildings48. Why did the passage mention Ghirardelli Square and Trolley Square?A. To introduce us some successful building renovations.B. To make them known to the public.C. To discuss whether they were worth restoring.D. To tell us any old buildings can be renovated.49. Renovating old buildings in the US needs architects who ______.A. are skilled at tearing down old buildingsB. are good at designing a new buildingC. have rich imagination and creativityD. have nostalgia of the city50. From the passage we can learn that________.A. building renovation is a better choice even if it costs more than building a new oneB. renovating a building is surely cheaper than putting up a new oneC. the main reason for building renovation is for economic purposeD. there will be less new buildings in the worldBDisposing(处理) of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it. As more and more people choose to live close together in cities, the waste-disposal problem becomes increasingly difficult.During the eighteenth century, it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dump site. Residents or trash haulers(垃圾托运者) would transport household rubbish, rotted wood, and old possessions to the site. Periodically(定期的) some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried. The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by.Factories, mills, and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of. Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water. Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem.Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society. The first problem is space. Dumps, which are now called landfills, are most needed in heavily populated areas.Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose. Property is either too expensive or too close to residential neighborhoods. Long-distance trash hauling(垃圾托运) has been a common practice, but once farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere. Cheap land within trucking distance of major city area is almost nonexistent.Awareness of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of waste disposal.Pollution of rivers, ground water, land and air is a price people can no longer pay to get rid of waste. The amount of waste, however, continues to grow.Recycling efforts have become commonplace, and many towns require their people to take part. Even the most efficient recycling programs, however, can hope to deal with only about50 percent of a city’s reusable waste.51. The most suitable title for this passage would be ______.A. places for Disposing WasteB. Waste Pollution DangersC. Ways of Getting Rid of WasteD. Waste Disposal Problem52. During the 18th century, people disposed their waste in many ways EXCEPT for _____.A. burying itB. recycling itC. burning itD. throwing it into rivers53. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph?A.Farm areas accept waste from the city in modern society.B.There is a cheap land to bury waste in modern society.C.It is difficult to find space to bury waste in modern societyD.Ways to deal with waste in modern society stay the same.54. The main purpose of writing this article is to _____.A. draw people’s attention to waste managementB. warn people of the pollution dangers we are facingC. call on people to take part in recycling programsD .tell people a better way to get rid of the wasteCLeadership is the art of getting someone to do something you want done because he wants to do it.People naturally want to follow a good leader. After meeting with an effective leader it is not unusual to feel uplifted(情绪高涨), inspired, and motivated to work towards a common goal.An effective leader makes others feel good about themselves, as well as the work they are doing. The leader has a vision(幻想)of what he or she wants to achieve, and can communicate that vision to others in a way that makes people want to be part of it. One thing a good leader typically does is to communicate the big picture, so that each employee can see how the particular role he or she plays makes a contribution to the final result.Good leaders are positive and optimistic when they speak about the future. Their enthusiasm wins them plenty of supporters who help make their vision a reality.Good leaders also understand that different people are motivated by different things. For employees motivated by a need for achievement, a leader explains how the task offers an opportunity to take on a challenge with an achievable goal. And employees are motivated by hearing how they will be part of a team of people working together.Good leaders will introduce employees by name first, rather than job titles. They refer to employees as team members, companions, or colleagues, never as “servants”. Words have power, including the power to make people feel whether or not they are important to the success of an organization.Good leaders believe that every team member matters and set up environments that make everyone feel important. It is no wonder they can attract the support they need to help them achieve their goals.55. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?A. To tell us how to be a good leader at work.B. To describe the proper relationship between leaders and employees.C. To inform us of how leaders and employees should communicate.D. To show the optimism of a leader.56. What is the most important to be a good leader?A. A good leader learns art very well.B. A good leader can promote employees.C. A good leader can satisfy all his or her employees.D. A good leader can make employees happy and willing in their work.57, What should a good leader do for an employee who wants to succeed at work?A. To promote the employee to a leadership role.B. To draw a beautiful picture of the employee’s future.C. To encourage the employee to meet the challenges of his work.D. To let the staff know the important role the employee plays.58. What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A. The importance of making introductions by name.B. A way of remembering others’ names.C. The key to the success of an organization.D. How to create a harmonious relationship between leaders and employees.59. We can infer from the passage that_________.A. a good leader is always good at creating comfortable working conditionsB. the support of employees is necessary for a leader to reach his goalC. names are much easier to remember than job titlesD. the motivation of the employees all comes from the leaderIV. 短文改错:At the end of last month, I attended at a celebration 60.__________ meeting hold in our school.

AStamp collecting is easy when you do it as a hobby. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on it. Sometimes stamps can be got from many ways for free.Getting StartedIf you have no stamps at all,you might want to buy a box of 500 or 1,000 different stamps all over the world from a hobby shop or stamp dealer to get started. One good choice is eBay. Try entering phrases like “stamps all over the world” in the search box. However,even if you want to specialize (专门从事) in collecting stamps,my advice is not to spend much money on stamps in the beginning. Start off collecting stamps from many ways for free until you have collected enough stamps and had enough experience.Sorting (分类) StampsSuppose you have some stamps and they are on paper. Before you take them off the paper,you should sort the stamps,for example,by country. This is because dealing with stamps is much easier when they are on paper. When you take them off the paper,they become easy to keep .Trimming (修剪) StampsNever try to take a stamp off its paper backing by pulling at it,even if it appears to be loose enough to do so. First,trim the paper around the stamp with a pair of sharp scissors making sure not to cut off the edge of the stamps. I suggest that you leave a quarter inch safety area from the edge of the stamp when you trim the paper before you are good at doing it.11.

The gift-giver said, “It’s a nice, strong pl ant, so even you can’t kill it.”I was well known as an “anti-gardener” —how was I going to care for this plant?For four years the plant received little care. I felt guilty (内疚的) just looking at it!As a non-gardener, my offers to look after friends’ ho uses were met with laughter: “We thank you for your offer, but we don’t want to come home to a dead garden!”I just had no interest in having a garden. They didn’t believe that it was a choice, not a failing.Some time later my husband accepted a job in Be lgium. Because I couldn’t throw away a gift, I decided to ask my neighbor to care for my plant.Our lovely house in Belgium had a beautiful garden. Slowly gardening became a part of my daily life, teaching me to slow down and to be happy in the silence of the garden. It was with regret that I left that garden to return to Sydney some months later.Back home life soon went back to normal. Then one day, I could start my own little garden. So, I went to collect my unwanted plant from my neighbor. I took the plant home, watered it and watched as its leaves turned from a lifeless yellow to a rich green within weeks. Many years later, I still don’t know the name of my first plant, but I do know that as it grows, so do I. It symbolizes (象征) a change in me and I started to believe in myself.14. When the author received a plant as a birthday gift, she felt _____.A. funnyB. guiltyC. excitedD. unhappy15. What did the author’s friends think of her?A. Her anti-gardening was a weakness.B. She was bored with gardening.C. She was a good plant keeper.D. Her dead garden was ugly.16. How did the author deal with the plant before moving away?A. She threw it away.B. She asked for help.C. She left it in the house.D. She gave it to a neighbor as a gift.17. The author’s stay in Belgium made her _____.A. miss her days back in SydneyB. feel sorry for her first plantC. fall in love with gardeningD. become strangely silentCHundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers.Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely; instead they print stories about plane accidents.Another factor (因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.18. According to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the worldnow?A. They carry news stories and tell others from place to place on foot or by horse.B. They tell each other what they have seen with their eyes.C. They watch TV or read newspapers.D. They listen to the radio every day.19. The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that _______ .A. people can learn more about the same news story from a newspaperB. people can read the news story more quickly in a newspaperC. people can read news stories in other countriesD. people can read news stories about their own country20. To make a good newspaper story, how many factors does the passage talk about?A. Two.B. Three.C. Five.D. Six.21. According to the passage, which of the following can you most possibly watch onTV?A. Your teacher has got a cold.B. The bike in front of your house is lost.C. You often play football with your friends after school.D. A tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasn’t been caught.DEvery summer, thousands of green sea turtles (海龟) climb onto beaches around the world. Each mother sea turtle lays 100 or more eggs in a hole, and covers the hole with sand before she swims away.Two months later, the eggs hatch (孵化), and the baby turtles climb out of the sand and swim into the ocean. They don’t reappear until they have grown as large as dinner plates. Until now, no one knows where the baby turtles go or what they do.“If we don’t know where these little turtles are, we can’t protect them,” says Kim Reich, who helps find part of the mystery.Her teacher, Karen Bjorndal, has studied green sea turtles for more than 30 years. Every year, Bjorndal goes to the Bahamas Islands. Many young sea turtles come here to live and eat at the end of their childhood.These turtles are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters. In fact, their name may be a result of what they eat. The turtles don’t look green but they do have green fat. Scientists learned that the turtles eat green sea plants, which may turn their fat green.Between 2002 and 2004, Bjorndal caught 44 green sea turtles in the Bahamas. After testing them, she found something to support the 20-year-old idea: baby green sea turtles eat meat before they turn to a diet of plants. In fact, they eat animals that live in the open ocean.Scientists still need to find where exactly green sea turtles grow. We now know that baby green sea turtles are out in the open ocean, but the open ocean is a big place.“It is really a problem,” says Bjorndal. The discovery may help us do a better job of protecting this sea animal.22. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A. Baby turtles go to the ocean when they are two months old.B. Mother turtles leave the eggs alone after they lay them.C. No one knows when turtles appear on the beach.D. Mother turtles are as large as dinner plates.23. Kim Reich does research on where baby turtles go because she wants to _________.A. help her teacherB. prove an ideaC. protect turtlesD. become a scientist24. What does Karen Bjorndal’s research prove about green sea turtles?A. The young live in the Bahamas Islands.B. The young eat meat before turning to a diet of plantsC. They live in the open ocean for a lifelong timeD. They are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters.25. What does the underlined word “It” in the last paragraph mean?A. Finding out where young turtles grow.B. Protecting this endangered sea animal.C. Changing young turtles’ eating habits.D. Living in the open ocean.How to unlock your talent (才能)Search.To find your hidden talent, you’ll have to search for it! People who are great at drawing or good at sports are the lucky ones because they have a natural talent for what they love doing. 26 It’s just that we might have to look a l ittle bit harder, that’s all!Try.27 Developing a new talent takes time and more effort, so don’t worry if you haven’t got your light-bulb (灵感) moment quickly.Ask for help to get you started. Do you have an aunt who can help you start a blo g or a sporty mom who’ll get active with you? 28 Sometimes we don’t need to look further than our own families to see what skills can be passed down to us!29Find out what excites you! The more enthusiastic (热情的) you are about a hobby, the more you’ll want to keep doing it. And, you’ve guessed it, the more you keep doing it, the better you’ll get!New ideas.Be open to new ideas.

Unit 1 Cultural relicsⅠ.阅读理解(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)AThe ancient city is in Pingyao county, Shanxi Province. Thecity wall was first built during the Zhou Dynasty. Since 1997, ithas been listed as a World Heritage Site. Now Pingyao city is theonly one in China completely protected as it was hundreds of years ago.The perimeter (周长) of this square city is 6.4 km long and the city wall is the earliest and largest city wall in China. It is 12m high with width of 5m. The wall was built with earth and covered with bricks.Outside the city wall there is a river, 4m wide and 4m deep.There are several gates of the city,two each on the east and west and one each on the south and north side.All the gates have two doors each. This has given the city the name “Turtle City” with the two gates on the south and north standing for the head and tail of the turtle and four gates on the east and west as the four legs. The doors on the south and north stand opposite each other,like the head of the turtle extending out and two wells just beyond southern gate are like a turtle's two eyes.Located on the trade route between Beijing and Xi'an, Pingyao developed into a merchant center where the local people set up the nation's earliest banks. These banks were the first in China to use checks. Several old courtyards have been turned into museums, most of which are homes and offices of Pingyao's old banks. One of the most unusual aspects of a visit here is realizing that this place was very important to China's financial (金融的)history.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了平遥古城的历史、建筑规模之宏伟及其在古代中国金融发展史上的重要地位。

So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself. It is quite easyto learn something in a language or a formula in maths, but it is difficult to usea formula in finding the answer to a maths problem. Great inventors do not geteverything from school but they can invent many things and change the world alot.Though T homas Edison invented many things he didn ’t have much school education. How do they do all these ? Because they know how to study. A lot of things are nottaught in the classroom. They get knowledge from books outside school. They workhard all their lives, and the most important thing is that they know how to use their head.31. What do many people go to school for ?A. To make friendsB. To get everythingC.

Over the years,the number of buildings around the castle grew.By l350,the castle no longer needed a river.The Louvre became a palace home for France kings and queens.During time of peace,new treasures were brought in.During the days of war,many treasures were stolen,and the buildings were damaged.When Francis I became king of France in 1515, he brought in many artists from other countries.One of the artists was Leonardo Da Vinci from Italy.DaVin ci’s“Mona Lisa”is the best known painting in the museum today.In 1793,the Louvre become a public museum,just as it is now.It is a place where art treasures are kept for everyone to enjoy.Every year millions of people from all over the world come to the Louvre to see the masterpieces.1.Most of works of arts in the Louvre have been collected probably _______.

Historians and scientists have long believed that ancient Egypt's most famous king was probably murdered. But a recent scientific studyclaims to have found a different solution to this more than 3,300-year-old mystery.Tut's full name was Tutankhamen. He was just 9 years old when he became ruler of Egypt in 1348 B.C. His treasure-packed tomb was revealed (展现) to the world almost a century ago. Tut's tomb was filled with royal riches, including a solid-gold coffin, a gold mask, and piles of jewelry.It made him one of the best-known Egyptian kings of all time.But Tut did not have much time to enjoy his vast wealth. His reign (执政) was cut short at the age of 19. Many experts have thought that Tut was killed by one of his advisers, named Ay, who wanted the throne for himself. Thanks to a major modern science project, it seems that Ayis off the hook.Researchers set out to solve the mystery of King Tut's death by using the tools of science.They began their investigation of Tut's well-preserved mummy by conducting an autopsy (尸体解剖), which is an in-depth medical examination to determine how someone died. The king's autopsy included DNA tests and electronic scans of his remains.Scientist Carsten Pusch conducted the tests on Tut for the new study. A scan of Tut's mummy showed an unhealed fracture (骨折) in his leg bone. He thinks a broken leg contributed to theyoung king's death. The DNA also indicates that the ruler had an illness that causes bones to go bad, More than 100 walking sticks were found in King Tut's tomb. This supports the autopsy findings Many of the sticks were well-worn, showing regular use. But how could a person die from a simple broken leg?Pusch also found DNA evidence in Tut's remains that indicates he had malaria, a disease carried by mosquitoes. Malaria severely weakens the immune system. Finally, the young ruler was just too weak to heal.5. King Tut is famous because _____.A. his tomb was packed with treasuresB. he was probably murdered by his adviserC. his death was a mystery in historyD. he brought much wealth to his people during his reign6. We can know from the text that _____.A. King Tut died from a weak body and a careless playB. a jealous adviser named Ay is likely the real killer in King Tut's deathC. King Tut fell to death because of his leg problemD. the malaria and the bone disease together caused King Tut's death7. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. King Tut died at the age of 19 and his reign was short.B. Scientists now know what killed King Tut by performing a scientificinvestigation.C. Scientists guessed that Tut used canes (手杖) because they found many canesin his tomb.D. Tut's broken leg would not heal because no doctors could be found in his time.8. The writer of the passage mainly wants to tell us that _____.A. King Tut was the greatest king in Egyptian historyB. King Tut's mummy murder mystery has been solvedC. historical mysteries should be solved by scienceD. history never put the blame on a good man without solid evidenceCThe Palace Museum, known as the Forbidden City, was the imperial (帝王的) palace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In the early 15th century, large-size construction caused 100,000 common people to lead a hard life. The construction took 14 years and was finished in 1420. In the following year, the capital of Ming Dynasty was moved from Nanjing to Beijing. Twenty-four emperors of the Ming and the Qing Dynasties ruled from the Forbidden City. The last dynasty fell in 1911, but Emperor Puyi still lived in the inner court. It was not until 1925 that the complex buildings were changed into a museum. Since then, the Palace has been opened to the public. The Palace Museum is rectangular(长方形的) in shape, about 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meters wide from west to east. There is a 10-meter-high wall, encircled by a 52-meter-wide moat (护城河) . In the Ming Dynasty, the wood needed for the building was brought mostly from Sichuan and Hunan Province, while in the Qing Dynasty, it was cut from the northeast of China. Most of the stones were mined from the suburban (郊外的) district of Fangshan and other districts. Construction of the Forbidden City brought hardship to the laboring people.The palace is the largest piece of ancient Chinese architecture still standing. Some of the buildings were damaged by lightning and rebuilt in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The palace has been expanded several times, but the original design was kept. After liberation, some costly renovations(翻新) were done and the Palace Museum is listed as one of the important historical sites under special preservation by the Chinese government.9. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. The origin of the name “the Forbidden City”.B. The Forbidden City and emperors.C. The open to the public of the Forbidden City.D. The period of the construction of the Forbidden City.10. The Forbidden City began to be constructed in ________.A. 1911B. 1421C. 1406D. 142011. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A. The emperors’ cruelty brought the Forbidden City into the world.B. The constructing of the Forbidden City needed wood and stones from all over the country.C. The Forbidden City is the largest piece of ancient Chinese architecture still standing.D. The Forbidden City is about 720,000 square meters.12.

It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that requireother reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.●Recall(回忆)your childhood memoriesOur model of what a garden should be often goes back to child hood.

Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our 21 , and especially if it’s given from the22 . When people are talking, there’s no need to do anything but23 them. Just take them 24 . Listen to what they’re saying. Care about it. Most times caring about it is even more important than 25 it.One of my patients told me that when she 26 to tell her story, people often 27 to tell her that they had once had something just like that happen to her. Subtly her pain became a story about themselves. 28 she stopped talking to most people. It was just too 29 . We connect through listening. When we interrupt what someone is saying to let them know that we understand, we move the 30 of attention to ourselves. But when we listen, they know we care.I have ever learned to 31 to someone crying by just listening. In the old days I used to reach for the tissues(纸巾) 32 I realized that passing a person a tissue may be just another way to shut them 33 , to take them out of their 34 of sadness and pain. Now I just listen. When they have cried all they need to cry, they find me there 35 them.This 36 thing has not been that easy to learn. It certainly went against everything I had been 37 since I was very young at school. I thought people listened only because they were too 38 to speak or did not know the answer.

Unfortunately, Elizabeth died before the palace was completed and only Catherine the Great and her successors were able to enjoy the great interior (内部) of Elizabeth’s home. Many parts of the palace’s impressive interior have been remodeled since then, particularly after 1837, when a huge fire destroyed most of the building. Today the Winter Palace, together with four more buildings arranged side by side along the river embankment, houses the extensive collections of the Hermitage. The Hermitage Museum is the largest art gallery in Russia and is among the largest and most respected art museums in the world.The museum was founded in 1764 when Catherine the Great bought a collection of 255 paintings from the German city of Berlin. Today, the Hermitage boasts over 2.7 million exhibits and displays, a diverse range of art and artifacts (手工艺品) from all over the world and throughout history (from Ancient Egypt to the early 20th century Europe). The Hermitage’s collections include works by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael and Titian, a collection of Rembrandts and Rubens, many French Impressionist works by Renoir, Cezanne, Monet and Pissarro, and several works by Rodin. The collection is really worth a stop for all those interested in art and history. The experts say that if you were to spend a minute looking at each exhibit on show in the Hermitage, you would need 11 years before you’d seen them all.

Kevin loved being outdoors among the wild rosebushes in front of his house with a view of distant mountains.It had been a good day for his wife, Sharon, too. They spent the morning in fron t of the house, talking and drinking tea. Sharon felt strong and tried her best to cook, starting a pot of homemade soup — a task that would have been nothing a few years ago, but is a little hard for her now. Her illness had left her weak, often puzzled.Sharon was the take-charge person in the family. She was seldom sick until 1997, when she began suffering from terrible headaches. One day at work, colleagues said she didn’t look right and urged her to go to the hospital. She rose from her chair and fell over. She could hear voices, but couldn’t speak. It looked as if she’d had a stroke.Other stroke-like symptoms (症状) followed. She had difficulty walking. She ran a fever all the time. The headaches never stopped. She and Kevin spent all their savings seeing doctors and on medical tests.In 2000, physicians said Sharon had brain damage that left her with symptoms resembling dementia (痴呆症). Once, she visited a familiar store and couldn’t remember where the exit was. Another time, she was making spaghetti, but didn’t know what to do after the water boiled.After seeing specialists, Kevin and Sharon came to believe that exposure (暴露) to mold had caused Sharon’s condition. Her world was certainly getting worse. At times she needed a wheelchair. The woman who never liked asking for help had to stay at home and rely on her husband.60. Why is it hard for Sharon to cook now?A. She got seriously ill.B. She became old.C. She couldn’t speak.D. She has not cooked for a long time.61. The underlined word “resembling” means “______”.A. likeB. asC. equal toD. representing62. According to the passage, what is the cause of Sharon’s illness?A. Working too hard.B. Exposure to the sun.C. Exposure to mold.D. Cooking too much.63. After reading the passage, we can infer that Shar on was a(n) ______ woman before she became ill.A. independentB. cleverD. kind D. forgetfulCPavarotti, one of the most famous tenors in the world, died in Italy on September 5, 2007. He died after a yearlong fight with cancer. He was 71 years old when he died.During his lifetime, his recordings sold more than 100 million albums (专辑), and his voice was popular everywhere.

From there, Pavarotti started a career that m ade him the world’s most famous opera singer. He was able to draw the attention of 500,000 in New York’s Central Park and was also able to invite stars such as James Brown, Sting and Bono to sing in his “Pavarotti & Friends” benefit concert, which was held every year.Pavarotti was a different kind of star. He was overweight, wearing a tux and sang in tongues foreign to most common Saturday Night Live viewers. Despite this, his fame transcended (超越) the opera house. Pavarotti won five Grammys all his life, earned a night at the Kennedy Center Honors with those well-known people like Jack Nicholson, Julie Andrews and Quincy Jones and played in his own Hollywood movie, the 1982 romantic comedy Yes?熏Giorgio, which was a failure.

The result was announced in Lisbon, on July 7, 2007.

We’ll know more after he sees the doctor. He doesn’t miss much, so when he misses, he’s hurt.”Yao returned home before Sunday night’s game. He has had a problem with his right big toe for some time, missing two preseason games because it was troubling him. The 25-year-old center has played in 266 regular-season games since joining the Rockets in 2002.“We can still win,” Van Gundy said. “Certainly, your chances are better when you have your better players.”“We just have to go about business as usual,” Rockets guard David Wesley said. “It’s unfortunate. We’ve got to find a way to win despite that. It won’t be easy.”Van Gundy said Dikembe Mutombo would take the place of Yao. Mutombo was averaging 10.9 minutes, 1.7 points and 3.3 rebounds (篮板) in 20 games.“I’m ready to go, and there’s no question about that,” the 39-year-old center said. “You don’t know when your name is going to be called.”Lakers’ coach Phil Jackson said Yao’s absence was “a disappointment for our fans”.When Lakers’ forward Lamar Odom was told that Yao wouldn’t be playing, he replied, “Good. This is sports, right?”73. From the passage it can be inferred that ______.A. Yao Ming missed his first game of his NBA careerB. Yao Ming has played in 266 regular-season games this yearC.

It is less than two miles from the famous ancient landmark and lies inside a massive manmade circular dirt wall,or"henge",known as the Durrington Walls.Remains found at the site included jewellery,stone arrowheads,tools made of deer antlers,wooden spears and huge amounts of animal bones and broken pottery."These finds suggest Stone Age people went to the village at special times of the year to feast and party",says Mike Parker Pearson from SheffieldUniversity in England.He said many of the pig bones they found had been thrown away halfeaten.He also said the partygoers appeared to have shot some of the farm pigs with arrows,possibly as a kind of sport before barbecuing them.An ancient road which led from the village to the River Avon was also found.Here,the experts think, people came after their parties to throw dead relatives in the water so the bodies would be washed downstream to Stonehenge.Parker Pearson believes Stonehenge was like a cemetery where ancient Britons buried the dead and remembered their ancestors."The theory is that Stonehenge is a kind of spirit home to the ancestors."The recent discovery of the village within the Durrington Walls shows that Stonehenge didn't stand alone but was part of a much bigger religious site,according to Parker Pearson.People still come to worship and celebrate at Stonehenge today.They meet there when the sun sets on the shortest day of winter and when it rises on the longest day of summer.But the days of barbecuing whole pigs there and throwing family members into the river are a thing of the past.(1)(2分)What was Stonehenge according to the text?A.A village where hundreds of people once lived.B.A place that regularly hosted large parties.C.A church where local villagers would get married.D.A site where dead people were placed or remembered.(2)(2分)From the text we can infer that the people who came to the village__________. A.liked to drink wine B.knew how to huntC.were from Egypt D.lived by the River Avon(3)(2分)What do experts think people did after the village parties?A.Returned to live at Stonehenge.B.Prayed for good luck in the new year.C.Hunted farm pigs as a sport.D.Put their dead relatives in the river.(4)(2分)When do people most often go to Stonehenge today?A.When a new discovery is made.B.At the beginning of summer and winter.C.On the longest and shortest days of the year.D.When they want to have a barbecue.二、结合语境,根据汉语或首字母提示用单词的适当形式填空。

AStamp collecting is easy when you do it as a hobby. You don’t have to spend a lot of money on it. Sometimes stamps can be got from many ways for free.Getting StartedIf you have no stamps at all,you might want to buy a box of 500 or 1,000 different stamps all over the world from a hobby shop or stamp dealer to get started. One good choice is eBay. Try entering phrases like “stamps all over the world” in the search box. However,even if you want to specialize (专门从事) in collecting stamps,my advice is not to spend much money on stamps in the beginning. Start off collecting stamps from many ways for free until you have collected enough stamps and had enough experience.Sorting (分类) StampsSuppose you have some stamps and they are on paper. Before you take them off the paper,you should sort the stamps,for example,by country. This is because dealing with stamps is much easier when they are on paper. When you take them off the paper,they become easy to keep .Trimming (修剪) StampsNever try to take a stamp off its paper backing by pulling at it,even if it appears to be loose enough to do so. First,trim the paper around the stamp with a pair of sharp scissors making sure not to cut off the edge of the stamps. I suggest that you leave a quarter inch safety area from the edge of the stamp when you trim the paper before you are good at doing it.11. This passage is written for people who ________.A. have no money to collect stampsB. want to sell their stampsC. want to collect stampsD. don’t know how to sort stamps12. According to the writer, at the very beginning, stamp collecting beginners shouldn’t________.A. collect common stampsB. borrow some stamps from their friendsC. act as an inexperienced collectorD. spend a lot of money in buying stamps13. What does the writer suggest NOT do when trimming stamps?A. Pull at them to take them off the paper backing when they look loose.B. Trim the paper around the stamp with a pair of sharp scissors.C. Leave a quarter inch safety area from the edge of the stamp.D. Make sure not to cut off the edge of the stamps.BQuite a few years ago, as I celebrated my 25th birthday with a party, I was surprised to receive an unusual present. The gift-giver said, “It’s a nice, strong pl ant, so even you can’t kill it.”I was well known as an “anti-gardener” —how was I going to care for this plant?For four years the plant received little care. I felt guilty (内疚的) just looking at it!As a non-gardener, my offers to look after friends’ ho uses were met with laughter: “We thank you for your offer, but we don’t want to come home to a dead garden!”I just had no interest in having a garden. They didn’t believe that it was a choice, not a failing.Some time later my husband accepted a job in Be lgium. Because I couldn’t throw away a gift, I decided to ask my neighbor to care for my plant.Our lovely house in Belgium had a beautiful garden. Slowly gardening became a part of my daily life, teaching me to slow down and to be happy in the silence of the garden. It was with regret that I left that garden to return to Sydney some months later.Back home life soon went back to normal. Then one day, I could start my own little garden. So, I went to collect my unwanted plant from my neighbor. I took the plant home, watered it and watched as its leaves turned from a lifeless yellow to a rich green within weeks.

It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, either by watching TV or reading newspapers.Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely; instead they print stories about plane accidents.Another factor (因素) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.18.

A tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasn’t been caught.DEvery summer, thousands of green sea turtles (海龟) climb onto beaches around the world. Each mother sea turtle lays 100 or more eggs in a hole, and covers the hole with sand before she swims away.Two months later, the eggs hatch (孵化), and the baby turtles climb out of the sand and swim into the ocean. They don’t reappear until they have grown as large as dinner plates. Until now, no one knows where the baby turtles go or what they do.“If we don’t know where these little turtles are, we can’t protect them,” says Kim Reich, who helps find part of the mystery.Her teacher, Karen Bjorndal, has studied green sea turtles for more than 30 years. Every year, Bjorndal goes to the Bahamas Islands. Many young sea turtles come here to live and eat at the end of their childhood.These turtles are the only sea turtles that live as plant eaters. In fact, their name may be a result of what they eat. The turtles don’t look green but they do have green fat. Scientists learned that the turtles eat green sea plants, which may turn their fat green.Between 2002 and 2004, Bjorndal caught 44 green sea turtles in the Bahamas. After testing them, she found something to support the 20-year-old idea: baby green sea turtles eat meat before they turn to a diet of plants. In fact, they eat animals that live in the open ocean.Scientists still need to find where exactly green sea turtles grow. We now know that baby green sea turtles are out in the open ocean, but the open ocean is a big place.“It is really a problem,” says Bjorndal. The discovery may help us do a better job of protecting this sea animal.22. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A. Baby turtles go to the ocean when they are two months old.B.
