We passengers sat jammed in heavy clothes. No one spoke. That’s one of the 31 rules. 32 we see the same faces every day, we prefer to 33 behind our newspapers. People who sit so close together are using those thin sheets of newsprint to keep their 34.As the bus came near the Mile, a 35 suddenly rang out, “ 36 ! This is yourdriver speaking.” We looked at the back of the driver’s head. “Put your papers down. All of you.” The 37 came down. “Now , turn and face the person next to you. Go 38 .”Surprisingly we all did it. Still no one smiled. I faced an older woman, her head wrapped in a red scarf. I saw her 39 every day. Our eyes met. We waited for the next 40 from the driver. “Now repeat after me. Good morning, neighbour !” Our voices were 41 . For many of us, these were the 42 words we had spoken that day. But we said them together, like 43 , to the strangers beside us. We couldn’t help 44 . There was the feeling of relief (解脱) that we were not being robbed.Moreover, there was the sense of ice being 45 . “Good morning, neighbour.” It was not so 46 after all.The bus driver said nothing more. He didn’t 47 to. Not a single newspaper went back up.

Instead of streets winding and twisting (迂回) as they do in London, they are all regular and well planned. The streets running north and south are called “avenues” an d are numbered, e.g. 1st Avenue, 2nd Avenue, etc. The streets going east and west are called “streets” and are also numbered, e.g. 51st Street, 63rd Street. It is all much more logical (合理的) than London’s street names. But I couldn’t help thinking how much more interesting than these dull cold numbers are London’s illogical but colorful names of streets, e.g. “Bishopgate” (which is not a gate and hasn’t a Bishop in it); “Haymarket” or “Cornmarket” (where you won’t see any hey or corn) or “Poultry” (without a living chicken anywhere in sight) or “Threadneedle Street”(where you won’t find little girls learning to sew).51. In the second sentence of the passage, “laid out” means ______.A. builtB. be putC. designedD. cut down52.

But during previous attempts, the treatment induced deadly chemical changes in the blood. The Biologic-HT System prevents those changes from happening, allowing the heat to kill viruses with few ill side effects.The new heat treatment cannot be considered a cure for Aids, says president of the company that makes the system. He says the treatment doesn’t kill all traces of the virus. However, it kills enough virus particles to give a patient’s immune system a reprieve in its deadly duel with HIV.Tests of the Biologic-HT treatment began on 36 patients earlier this year. The treatment takes about four hours, and the patient normally feels well enough to leave the hospital or clinic the following morning.So far, the patients who have had the treatment say they feel better and have developed no new opportunistic infections—disease that strike people with damaged immune systems. The patients also have experienced about a 50 percent increase in the number of T cells in their bodies. T cells are key disease-fighting cells of the immune system and the main target of HIV.56. This passage is mainly concerned with ____________.A. a way for treating AIDSB. a heat-sensitive virusC.the immune system of the human bodyD.the function of high temperature57. The blood of the patient___________.A.is heated with a single injectionB.is heated by being circulated at a higher rateC.is taken out from the body and then circulated through a heating system.D.Is taken out from the body, heated outside and then put back into the body.58. The previous attempts to use high temperature for treating AIDS failed becausethey_________.A.caused chemical changesB.could not kill HIV effectivelyC.resulted in deathsD.killed both HIV and healthy cells59.According to the passage, the new treatment___________.A. can kill all the HIV virusesB. cannot eliminate the viruses completelyC.can double the number of disease-fighting cellsD. can reconstruct the patient’s immune system.60.The result of the experiment seems to be ___________.A. disappointingB. incompleteC. successfulD. surprising（C）Americans with small families own a small car or a large one. If both parents are working, they usually have two cars. When the family is large, one of the cars is sold and they will buy a van(住房汽车)A small car can hold(容纳)four persons and a large car can hold six persons but it is very crowded(拥挤). A van hold seven persons easily, so a family three children could ask their grandparents to go on a holiday travel They could all travel together.Mr. Hagen and his wife had a third child last year.

Chaplin waved his hands to drive it away , but the fly soon came back again . For once it even rested on his nose! The great actor got very angry . He took up a fly-swatter (苍蝇拍) and swung at it , but the fly got away in time . Then the offender stayed on the table before him . Chaplin lifted the swatter for the death blow --- he was sure this time he would kill it . But after he looked at it carefully , Chaplin put down the swatter. “Why didn’t you kill it?” asked one of his friends . Chaplin shrugged his shoulders. “ It wasn’t the same fly .” he said. ( )56.From this story we know Chaplin was _______.A. a great manB. a funny personC. a film actorD. a fly lover ( )57.

A. the fly was a good one B. he was interested in the fly C. the fly Chaplin didn’t kill was not the one which had rested on his nose D. the fly Chaplin killed was not the one which had rested on his nose (B) What am I going to wear today? That daily question often wastes us time and causes stress. Some people have many clothes and might still think , “There ’s nothing to wear . ”But, what if they have only six items of clothing to choose from and wear for an entire month ? That’s the idea behind Six Items or Less. Six Items or Less is a social experiment , a gentle way of saying “no” to fashion consumerism(消费主义) and the high cost of clothing . Heidi Hackemer came up with the idea . She shared their idea with her friends . And all of a sudden , they had almost 100 people from around the world saying that they wanted to take part in this experiment . It was an interesting month for them . Hackemer was surprised at how few people noticed that she was wearing the same six items the whole month . Having fewer choices reduced stress in her life . “ I learned what’s really important and what’s really worth stressing . I also found that this simplicity exists in other parts of my life . I realized that physical things that we allow into our world , really blocks our mind . And our mind can be quite a powerful and positive thing if we cleared up a little bit .” Kristy Hogue said the experiment inspired her to reexamine her life . With six items , at first she was really excited and everything was working out perfectly and she never got bored . Then she started to feel a little bored . Then she eventually accepted it and started to be more relaxed . Alexander was one of the 40 men “sixers”. The most difficult part for him was having to wash clothes by hand every day . But the experiment changed his opinion on what makes people happy . “We have many choices for everything . But all those choices don’t necessarily lead up to any kind of satisfaction . We are crazy about novelty . In fact , slowing down a little bit and considering your choices a little tightly , actually leads to more time , more happiness and more content . ( )59.Heidi Hackemer began the Six Items or Less experiment because she wanted to __________. A. try something special B. remove the blocks in her mind C. reexamine her life and be happy D. fight the custom of overspending on clothes ( )60.By having fewer clothes to choose from every day , Hackemer felt ______.A. strangeB. relaxedC. boredD. surprised ( )61. What influence did the experiment have on Alexander ? A. He realized that novelty could bring him more chances . B. He realized that holding on tightly could lead to more content . C. He realized that having fewer choices could bring him more happiness. D. He realized that slowing down his life speed could bring him more content. ( )62. What could be the best title for the passage ? . A. Many choices for everything. B. What am I going to wear today ? C. Six items or less can make you feel better . D. People ’s craziness about fashion consumerism. (C) Welcome to Harry Potter and the case of the teenage depression. The popular series is being used in a book designed to help teenagers deal with feelings such as anger and depression. Australian psychologist(心理学家) Dr Julie-Anne Sykley has written the book Harry Potter Power , which uses ideas and characters from British author J.K. Rowling’s series to help teenagers develop a happy feeling. Ms Sykley said she had been working on the book for 10 years to help young people feel happier , healthier and more powerful. “I found there was a lot of special hidden material in the (Harry Potter) books and lots of powerful psychological messages that could help young people,” she said . “ I sense they really need some help and guidance to improve their resilience and help them make better choices in their life .” Harry Potter fans would be familiar with characters in Ms Sykley’s book. “ The magical hippogriff creature , for example , was used as a symbol of hope in Harry Potter Power,” she said . Dementors were depressing spirits used in her book to help teenagers learn how to prevent mental illness , Ms Sykley said . “It’s a great way to introduce the idea of depression ,” she said . “ Puzzles, games and secret messages were designed to keep learning about depression and anger interesting and informative,” she said . Although Harry Potter Power was marketed to young people aged 12 and older , Ms Sykley said it was suitable for adults and professionals such as teachers and psychologists.

I was often bullied by the other children, and often got off the school bus crying.I had a few friends and good times, but I was never happy at school. I would rather stay at home and play the piano and readbooks.The first two years of high school were the worst. I was bullied by girls and guys who didn’t want to get to know me.I soon felt as if there was something wrong with me. I felt alone.

A new sofa is a large expenditure, so you definitely want to make the money well-spent. A sofa is a big addition to any room, and it is important to find one that not only fits your room but is also well-made.Before buying your sofa, measure the space where you plan to put it. If you plan to buy a large sofa, measure your doorways to make sure that you will be able to bing it inside the house.For strength, choose a sofa with a frame made of hardwood and make sure it is fastened with screws( 螺钉). Also, if you are buying a sofa with a pull-out bed, pull the bed out in the store to see how well it works and check the mattress for comfort.Consider the design of the sofa in comparison to your room design. For example, if you are looking for something more formal, a sofa with bare wood legs and a curved arm may be nice, or for something more casual, a skirted sofa with a rolled arm would work.Think about the future when choosing the color for your sofa.It is a large expenditure; choose a lighter color that can be used with any decoration. You can always add splashes of color with decorative pillows and cushions.Today you can purchase sofas in a variety of material,including leather which is easy to clean but can be uncomfortably sticky in hot weather and chilly in cold weather. Choose a material that is going to be functional for the people using the sofa, and keep in mind that many sofas come with covers that can be removed for washing.63.The passage was written mainly to________.A.persuade people to buy sofasB.give suggestions on choosing sofaspare different types of sofasD.introduce advantages of sofas64.We can learn from the first paragraph that_______.A.people often buy televisions and sofas togetherB.sofas are not as expensive as beforeC.the quality of the sofa is the first thing to consider when you want to buy oneD.the popularity of sofas has something to do with the popularity of televisions65.What color does the writer advise choosing?A.The color you like the bestB.The main color of your room.C.Lighter colors.D.Warm colors.66.Which of the following factors is NOT discussed in the passage?A.Weight of the sofa.B.Size of the sofa.C.Design of the sofa.D.Quality of the sofa.DIn the tropical forests of Papua New Guinea, scientists have found a truly tiny frog. The adult frogs are just three-tenths of an inch long. Such a frog can sit on a dime and still has space to invite a few friends along. The little frogs are now the world’s smallest vertebrate, or animal with a backbone(脊柱 ).Louisiana State University professor Christopher Austin and student Eric Rittmeyer discovered the frog in 2009, during a trip to Papua New Guinea to study the wide variety of life on the island. The researchers were recording the calls of frogs at night near the Amau River in eastern Papua New Guinea, when they heard some high-pitched (声调高的 ) sounds. “This frog has a call that doesn’t sound like a frog at all.It sounds like an insect,” said Austin.They thought they would find an insect. What they got instead surprised them. “We found it by grabbing a whole handful of leaves, putting them into a clear plastic bag and very, very slowly going through them until we saw that small frog,”said Austin.Claims about the tiniest animal with a backbone are still up for debate. Theodore Pietsch is an ichthyologist—a scientist who studies fish—at the University of Washington. In 2006, he described a species of deep-sea fish, about 2 mm smaller than the frogs. But only the males are that small. Austin knew about the fish, but felt that average species size would make a better comparison.67.Christopher Austin and Eric Rittmeyer went to Papua New Guinea in order to_______.A.find a certain kind of frogB.finish a report on frogsC.research a new species of insectD.study the variety of life there68.Christopher Austin and Eric Rittmeyer first took the frog as a kind of insect because______.A.its size was tinyB.it looked like an insectC.its sound was high-pitchedD.it stayed in the leaves69.The photos of the tiny frogs that Austin took_________.A.were not easily takenB.recorded how the frogs jumpedC.showed the frogs clearlyD.were not available for the public yet70.What would be the best title for the passage?A.A heaven for wildlife lovers.B.World’s smallest frogC.More and more new species are found.D.Scitentific discoveries are often accidental.第四部分写作（25分）第一节用所给词的适当形式填空（5分）1.Human health was threatened on a number of occasions by__________to man-made chemicals in 1976 and 1977(expose)2.The schoolboys are more __________not to make any mistake in spelling than ever before.( caution)3.Did you come early enough for the chairman’s __________speech?( open)4.Two factors weigh heavily against the effectiveness of__________research in industry.(science)5.Her particular way of smiling left a good __________on me.(impress)6.After he left, I opened the envelope and found it contained a $ 1,000___________.(contribute)7.He was now weak and exhausted, and his __________warned that a long speaking tour might take his life.(physics)8.The new railway is still under____,which means it is being_____(construct)第二节短文改错（10分）In order to celebrate their 50th anniversary, our school is going to hold a party, which allow students to perform.

enough candlelight flickering on the kitchen table.With the candlelight，I could see the card I was writing to my husband’s cousins in Finland.Dear Heli and Risto，You are on my mind tonight because we are using the candles you gave us when you visited us two years ago.There was a horrible summer thunderstorm this evening and the power went out，and your candles were just what we needed.They have lit our dinnertime，the bedrooms and now I am sitting by one in the kitchen...What I didn’t say to Heli and Risto is that we never burned the candles before because they，well，smell like a campfire.And so they stood in iron candlesticks until we needed them.I’m so thankful that we had candles on hand that dark night.And I’m equally as thankful that I had a beautiful card on hand，too，or I would have let the opportunity to keep in touch with far­away family escape.It would have turned into another one of those moments when the thought of sending a card crossed my mind but never actually happened.The candle burned slowly.After I finished my card to Finland，I enjoyed looking through the rest of my “Someone Cares” greeting cards.The air was fresh and cool，and I had cards and enough light to write.I found a birthday card for my nephew’s 10th birthday，a thinking­of­you card for my aunt，and a fun greeting card for an old friend and I began writing.Candles and cards—two things that make a thunderstorm into the perfect storm.56．Why did the writer light the two candles that night?A．Because she thought of her husband’s cousins.B．Because she wanted to add some fun to her life.C．Because she wanted to enjoy another kind of lifestyle.D．Because there was no electricity due to the thunderstorm.57．By saying “smell like a campfire”，the writer wants to show________.A．she often went to a campfire aloneB．she liked the smell of a campfire very muchC．she didn’t like the smell of the burning candlesD．she didn’t need to burn the candles in the past58．In the past，when the writer wanted to send a card，________.A．she often didn’t put it into practiceB．she often immediately wrote oneC．she often didn’t know what to writeD．she usually hesitated for a long time59．Lighting the candles in the stormy night made the writer________.A．know who was the most important person to herB．know how to make her boring life interestingC．value her relatives and friends moreD．believe everyone could be happyBDuring the mid­1960s，Vinh Linh，Quang Tri in Vietnam was a wasteland，which was often under attack from the US air force.Vietnamese soldiers who were fighting against the US discussed how to make people there safe.Some suggested moving the people underground.Then they began to build a tunnel (隧道)．The Vinh Moc tunnel was built for the people of Son Trung and Son Ha in Vinh Linh county of Quang Tri Province.It was built in several stages，beginning in 1966 and was in use until 1971.It grew to include wells，kitchens，rooms for each family and hospitals.Around 60 families lived in the tunnel.Deep under the ground，hidden from soldiers，people lived in the tunnel for many years.They survived.The tunnel was a success and no villagers lost their lives thanks to it.During that time,17 children were born in the tunnel，each of whose lives was a proof that the tunnel was effective in protecting the villagers.As time goes by，it has become both a historical site and a tourist attraction for people wishing to learn about a heroic period in Vietnam’s history.The total length of the tunnel network is nearly 2 km，and has three floors.It was built over two years.The two sides have small houses every 3m.The tunnel center has a 150­seat hall，a hospital and maternity rooms (产房)．It is linked to the sea by seven exits，which also function as ventilators (通风设备)，and to a nearby hill by another six.60．What does the Vinh Moc tunnel have according to the passage?A．Kitchens，hospitals and a hall.B．Wells，windows and kindergartens.C．Kitchens，kindergartens and hospitals.D．A hall，maternity rooms and schools.61．The villagers living in the tunnels were________during those years.A．awful B．safeC．poor D．generous62．According to the passage，the Vinh Moc Tunnel________.A．is nearly 2km in length with bad ventilationB．had been built for 7 years before it came into useC．is a place that shows the bravery of the local peopleD．was first built as a base for the Vietnamese army63．What is the best title for the passage?A．How to protect the Vinh Moc tunnel.B．A painful memory of the Vietnam War.C．The wisdom and bravery of the Vietnamese.D．The Vinh Moc tunnel—a famous historical relic in Vietnam.CSometimes the best way to get through hard times is finding out you’re not alone.The books in the Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul (《心灵鸡汤》) series have helped millions of teens in the few years since the first was published.Much like the earlier ones，the third in the series has stories, poems, and cartoons，most of which are written by teens themselves.Twenty teen reviewers read all the works and left only 5,000 favorites.Editors (编辑) Jack Canfield，Mark Victor Hansen，and Kimberly Kirberger made the final cuts.Packed with heartache，love，experience，and wisdom，Teen Ⅲ is as helpful as the earlier series.Most of the stories are written by young，unpublished writers.And the audience undoubtedly will relate perfectly to the tales told in the book.The editors have organized this collection into nine categories (类别)：Relationships，Friendship，The Power of Love，Family，Lessons，Difficult Stuff，Overcoming Obstacles (克服障碍)，Self­Discovery，and Growing Up.You’ll be comforted to know that you’re never as alone as you think.This book is written to help teens to deal with the problems that they face every day，from first love to heartache，from best friends to enemies.This book will help guide you through the difficult times and add happiness to the great times.The best part of this book is that there is something for everyone in it.The variety in this book is great.From the cartoons to the poems，you will never get bored of reading it.64．The text is written to________.A．introduce a book B．give some adviceC．tell stories D．please readers65．Which of the following cannot be

D．Ways to solve problems.DA mom in Australia was told by a doctor that her newborn son was “dead”，but she helped bring him back to life by holding the baby against her body.She used a method known as “kangaroo care”．The child，named Jamie，was born after only 27 weeks with his twin sister，Emily，at a hospital in Sydney.Her birth went well，but his was a different story.The doctor struggled for 20 minutes to save him before declaring him dead.“His little arms and legs were just falling down away from his body，” Kate Ogg said.“I took my coat off and put him on my chest with his head over my arm.” She and her husband，David，spoke to the child as she continued to hold him for nearly two hours.During that time，the two­pound baby showed signs of life.She said，“I told my mom，who was there，that he was still alive.Then he held out his hand and grabbed my finger.”The doctor at first ignored the baby’s movements，but when he put the stethoscope (听诊器) to its chest，his mouth fell wide open and he said，“It’s my fault.It’s a miracle (奇迹)．”“The care helps the baby keep body warmth，” Dr Pinchi Srinivasan said.“It also regulates (调节) heart and breathing rates and is believed to help weight gain and improve sleeping habits.Fathers can also use ‘kangaroo care’．The key to the method is skin­to­sk in contact.”The practice began in less developed nations.It has become a recognized practice in helping premature_babies.The technique is good for babies，and is used in many baby care units.68．When the baby first showed signs of life，the doctor________.A．didn’t believe a miracle had happenedB．was too shocked to do anythingC．was cheered and tried to save the baby at onceD．was moved by what the mother did to the baby第四部分写作（30分）第一节单词填空（英汉互译5分）1.结束；终结 ___________________2.从那以后_________________4.遭受；患病 ___________________ 4.当权；上台_______________5.现在；目前 ___________________6.get/be tired of___________7.as usual _____________________ e up__________________9.dig out _______________________ 10.out of work_____________第二节单句改错（10分）1.I haven’t lived here long,but I have a great many friend here.2.I have a dog and a dog is called Jack.3.The Smiths have married but we have no children.4.At the end,we solved the problem.5.Do you have any difficulty on listening?6.This is the factory where we visited last week.7.Don’t let the little boy to go swimming by himself.8.They determined stop to have a good rest.9.I have received the letter just now.10.You are right,because we should support you.第三节书面表达（10分）快餐在中国非常流行,尤其受到青少年的青睐.某英文报委托你写一篇有关快餐食品的英语短文,并包括如下要点:1. 快餐受欢迎的原因:1)方便,省时; 2)价格合理,服务好.2. 快餐食品的不足:营养不均衡.3. 你对快餐的态度和观点.注意: 1. 词数: 100—1202.. 从营养角度来讲: in terms of nutrition阅读理解：第三部分[语篇解读] 一个停电的暴风雨夜里，作者点燃了两根别人送的蜡烛，她写了几张“有人关心”的卡片，觉得这真是一场“完美的暴风雨”。

It was just getting dark; there was a touch of fog and I was on a lonely stretch of road. But I was going along cheerfully, thinking about the dinner I would eat when I 1 to Salisbury.I was going along 2 at about thirty-five miles an hour when suddenly I heard a scream, a woman’s scream---"3 !" I looked round, but the only4 of life was a large, black, rather suspicious-looking car just5 a bend in the road about a hundred yards6 . That was7 the cry had come from. I8 speed and went after it. I think the driver saw what I was doing,9 he did the same and began to draw away from me. As I drew near, the girl's voice came again, a lovely voice but 10 with fear."Let me go, 11 fool; you're hurting me. Oh! Oh!"I felt my blood 12 . The fog was coming down thicker now, the countryside was lonelier. The man in the car had no 13 noticed this. Again came a cry."Drop the knife, fool. Oh!" Then a cry and a groan.If I was to save her, it was now or 14 . Perhaps even now I was too late. But if I couldn't save the girl, I would 15 try to bring the murderer to the police station. The car was only a couple of yards away now. I drove the bike right across its 16 , and its brakes screamed as the driver tried to pull it over and crashed into the ditch on the side of the road. The door of the car was pushed open angrily and a dark, evil-looking fellow stepped out, mad with anger."Fool!" he shouted 17 he came towards me with his fist raised to hit me. But I was quicker than he. I put all I knew into 18 that would have knocked out Joe Louis. It caught him right on the ground without a 19 . I rushed to the car, 20 open the door and peered inside. There was no girl there. Suddenly from the back of the car came a voice.“You have been listening to a radio play. Murder in Hollywood, with Mae Garbo and Clark Taylor.

There were about fifteen of us drawing and writing with chalk(粉笔) to spread hopeful messages in front of a railway station.

Perhaps the most interesting person I have ever met in my life is an Italian professor（教授）of philosophy （哲学）who teaches at the University of Pisa. 1 I last met this man eight years ago, I have not forgotten his 2 qualities. First of all, I respected his 3 to teaching. Because his lectures were always well-prepared and clearly delivered（表达）, students crowded（拥挤的）into his classroom. His followers liked the fact that he 4 what he taught. Furthermore（再则）, he could be counted on to explain his ideas in an 5 way, introducing such aids（帮助）to 6 as oil paintings, music, and guest lecturers. Once he 7 sang a song in class in order to make a point clear. 8 , I admired the fact that he would talk to students outside the classroom or talk with them 9 the telephone. Drinking coffee in the café, he would easily make friends with students. Sometimes he would 10 a student to a game of chess.11 , he would join student groups to discuss a variety（种类）of 12 : agriculture（农业）, diving and mathematics and so on. Many young people visited him in his office for 13 on their studies; others came to his home for social evenings. Finally, I was 14 by his lively sense of humor. He believed that no lesson is a success 15 , during it, the students and the professor 16 at least one loud 17 . Through his sense of humor, he made learning more 18 and more lasting.

The half-empty coffee cups, still standing next to their plates, tell of a morning like any other. And yet, that grey covering of dust that everything 1 tells a different story: it tells of screams, tears, terror and 2 . Now the restaurant in the World Trade Center will 3 again serve breakfast. And never again will all those people go there to eat or 4 . So many people whose faces we associate with life and liveliness are gone 5 . So many words remain 6 , and so much happiness has been destroyed. In their places are tear-stained(泪水沾湿的) faces.My generation has seen this. On Monday, a fight with my sister, a bad grade and homework 7 to be the biggest problems in the world. Tonight, so many across the country know that America’s pain is at its 8 ever.We have 9 World WarⅡ. But to most of us students, that’s an event on a textbook10 that would never happen today.After all, this was a time of 11 and wealth—the United States was powerful and successful. There would be no more wars, and we were 12 to live in such a time.But when those planes 13 ; when firefighters with 14 on their faces ran among the parts of the building that had fallen; when people 15 for their family members; when history was unfolding before our eyes, in full, clear color—then we knew the world had been changed. 16 how many human beings turned to ashes in a second, and seeing some jump from the buildings, I know that my generation is growing up in a world where 17 can still be evil.But seeing those heroes risk their lives among the castle-like ruins, and seeing the 18 blood donors at the hospitals, my generation has learned that tears are allowed, that mankind can also be 19 , and that the ghost of evil never 20 the spirit of good.1.

MOSCOW, Sept. 4 (Xinhuanet) --- At least 335 people including 155 children, were killed in the three-day hostage crisis (人质危机) in a southern Russian school, Russia’s Deputy Prosecutor General Sergei Fridinsky said on Saturday.“We are still identifying the bodies. We have recovered 322 bodies, and 155 of them are children,” Fridinsky was quoted by the Itar-Tass news agency as saying.The prosecutor said the death toll would probably grow as the clean-up operation is continuing at the site, but it will not rise considerably.Emergency workers pulled the bodies out of the school on Saturday, after Russian special forces rescued more than 400 children and adults hostages in a special operation that has suppressed (平定)the hostage -taking standoff by Friday night.Valery Andreyev, regional chief of the Federal Security Service (FSS), said Friday that over 30 armed militants took part in the hostage-taking crisis and Russian troops captured three of them alive on Friday, according to the Interfax news agency.He said people of Russian origin and foreign nationals were among the killed hostage-takers. Earlier official information showed that ten Arab militants were killed in Friday’s raid (突袭).Andreyev said a large amount of explosives (爆炸物)and mines planted by hostage-takers in the school have been found.Rusian Presidnet Vladimir Putin made a surprise visit early Saturday to the southern Russian town of Beslan where commandos (突击队) stormed the school to end the hostage crisis. He accused the attackers of trying to spark an racial conflict that would engulf (卷入)Russia’s troubled Caucasus Mountains region.？1. It can be inferred that the Russian hostage crisis began on ________.A. WednesdayB. MondayC. FridayD. Saturday。

She took a job at a hospital, delivering meals to patients as what was called “a tray girl” .Jerry Johnson, the youngest child in the family, was 5 years old when his dad left. Speaking with his mother recently, Johnson heard his mother repeat the question she asked at that time. “Lord, what am I going to do with all these kids by myself?” The answers came in the form of lima beans, black-eyed peas and low prices on chicken necks. “Something to boil for every day of the week,” Conley said.“I cannot remember one Christmas that I didn’t feel like the luckiest kid in the world,” Johnson said, “even though now I realize we has hardly anything in terms of mo ney.”“How did you hold all that together?” he asked his mother.Conley said she would save up her sick days at work, going in no matter how she felt. Then in December, the company would pay her for the unused sick days. More help came in castoffs(废弃物)，when wealthy families would clean out their toy chests at Christmastime and take a load of toys to the Salvation Army. Conley would pick through them, finding the best ones for her children. The result of those sacrifices led to a big, happy Christmas for Conley and her kids.“But I never did tell you it was a Santa Claus,” Conley said, “I couldn’t give any man credit for what I had done.”Johnson thanked his mom for her sacrifices, and for the good example she set for him and his siblings. “I think it’s helping us all be better parents,” Johnson said.56. How did Johnson feel about Christmas when he was a kid?A. AwfulB. DisappointedC. PleasedD. Indifferent57. How did Conley struggle to send the children Christmas gifts?A. By begging rich families to helpB. By picking up gifts of low pricesC. By visiting the Salvation ArmyD. By helping clean out toy chests58. The underlined part in Paragraph 6 shows that Conley_______?A. didn’t believe in God thenB. was proud of what she didC. was complaining about her bad luckD. wasn’t willing to ask others for help59. From the passage we can know that _____.A. Conley had great influence on her kidsB. Conley was an optimistic but stubborn womanC. Johnson landed a job in Conley’s company finallyD. Johnson sensed his mother’s despair when he was youngBFlorida deputy Gene Smith thought the calls about a kangaroo wandering on the street were part of a prank. But WTSP reports that the story was true: A five-foot-tall, 200-pound kangaroo was hopping around Pasco County on Sunday.Then the call came that it was now on US 301. Gene Smith, who noted that the calls were the strangest he’d received during 17 years on the force, said, “Sure enough, there was a kangaroo in the middle of the road. It was a pretty big and extremely strong animal. It wasn’t until I grabbed those legs that I realized just how strong they were. It doesn’t look like that on TV.In fact, the kangaroo was so strong that police couldn’t catch it. Al ong with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office Agricultural Unit, they tried a number of approaches to wrangle in the animal without seriously injuring it. But not even tranquilizers(镇定剂) could slow down the creature. Eventually, local resident Kevin Wehling, who WTSP said “had heard rumors about the kangaroo and wanted to see it for himself,” captured the animal.Kangaroos typically do not attack humans unless they are angered. However, an Australian politician was recently knocked down and scratched facing a kangaroo while out for a morning jog. They can become more aggressive when they find themselves in a strange environment with a team of police officers hunting them down.Police still have no idea who owns the kangaroo and have now placed it in the care of a vet. Technically, you can own a kangaroo in the Sunshine State if you have the right permits. In theory, wildlife officials should be able to narrow the field and pinpoint where the stray kangaroo came from.60. What does the underlined word “prank” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. TaskB. PlanC. TrickD. Show61. According to what Gene Smith said in Paragraph2, we infer that____.A. he was skilled at grabbing kangarooB. he had seen many kangaroos in the wild beforeC. he had always worried that kangaroos would attack peopleD. he didn’t expect capturing the kangaroo would be that hard62. What can we infer from Paragraph4?A. Kangaroos are the gentlest animals in the worldB. Kangaroos can be dangerous in certain circumstancesC. Kangaroos usually beg for food when they are hungryD. Kangaroos can adapt to a strange environment quickly63. Wildlife officials should be able to pinpoint where the stray kangaroo came frombecause _____.A. the kangaroo can lead them to its ownerB. they can refer to the kangaroo’s footstepsC. cameras have recorded the kangaroo’s trackD. they can refer to records of people keeping kangaroosCA Scottish woman has given birth to twins for the third time. Karen Rodger, 41, welcomed her first pair of girls rowan and Isla after having twice given birth to twin boys.“I still haven’t really taken it on board because I was convinced I was having two boys,” Rodger told Sky News. Karen said her husband Colin was equally stunnedwhen the couple learned they were going to have their fifth and sixth child. “He thought I was joking and immediately wrote back to say 'this is not funny'. I had to explain that it really was true,” Karen s aid.The average couple has about a 3 percent chance of having twins when not accounting for fertility(多产)drugs. And with each following pregnancy, the changes of producing twins a second, or even third time, become less.Karen, a dance lecturer, first learned of the incredibly rare occurrence during a visit to her doctor and immediately texted her husband to share the news. “I just could not believe it. It never crossed my mind that it would be twins again. I just thought that wouldn’t happen to people like me, but I’m absolutely delighted,” she said.64. According to Paragraph2, when the husband heard the news, he was____.A. upsetB. worriedC. relievedD. shocked65. What can we infer form Paragraph3?A. The average couple would turn to fertility drugs.B. The average couple gives birth to twins for a reason.C. The average couple’s chance of having t he new twins is rare.D. The average couple gives birth to twins because they are different.66. From Karen ‘s reaction to the news given by her doctor, we infer that____.A. she didn’t know she was pregnant againB. she was happy to have twins againC. s he didn’t think she was different from othersD. she didn’t know how to tell her husband the news67. After reading the passage, we know that Karen ____.A. gave birth to the twin girls in her fortiesB. now has three boys and three girls in totalC. was talked into having more kids by her husbandD. hoped she could have more girls soonDDo you want to go out of town for a bit of rest and relaxation?

Punishment is focused on reducing or getting rid of unwanted behaviors. Punishment can be effective in some cases. 71 Prison is one example. After being sent to jail for a crime, people often continue committing crimes once they are away from prison. Why is it that punishment seems to work in some instances, but not in others？Researchers have found a number of factors that contribute to how effective punishment is. First, punishment is more likely to lead to a reduction in behavior if it immediately follows the behavior. 72 It may help explain why sending people to jail does not always lead to a reduction in criminal behaviors.Another factor is that punishment achieves greater results when it is consistently applied. 73 For example, people often continue to drive over the speed limit even after receiving a speeding ticket. Why? Because the behavior is inconsistently punished.74 One of them is that any behavior changes that result from punishment are often temporary(暂时的). Perhaps the greatest one is the fact that punishment makes people not perform certain actions, but it does not actually offer any information about more appropriate or desired behaviors.Another thing to consider about punishment is that it can have unintended andundesirable consequences. For example, approximately 75 percent of parents in the United States report hitting their children. 75 For this reason, psychologists suggest that any short-term gains from using punishment should be weighed because it may produce potential long-term consequences.A.Punishment also has some notable disadvantages.B.Parents and teachers consider punishment an effective tool.C.Prison sentences often occur long after the crime has been committed.D.There are two types of punishment, positive punishment and negative punishment.E.In fact, it can be difficult to administer a punishment every single time abehavior occurs.F.However, you can probably think of situations where punishment does not reducea behavior.G.Researchers have found that this type of physical punishment can lead toantisocial behaviors among children.2013-2014上学期期中试卷答案五．七选五：FCEAG六．改错：I’m a senior school student, so I like English very much.

But more than three hundred years ago, most of the people in Europe did not know anything about tea, because it was grown in Asia. There is a story about an English sailor（水手）. Once he went to India and China. When he came home, he brought some tea as a present for his mother. She told her friends about the present and asked them to a tea party. When her friends came to the tea party, the old woman brought out some leaves and asked them to eat tea. Of course, nobody liked the tea leaves.Just then the sailor came in. He looked at the tea leaves on the table and asked his mother,“What have you done with the tea?”“I boiled it as you said.”“I threw it away, of course.” answered the woman.“Now, you may throw away the leaves, too.” said her son.56.

Your words carry a message. People communicate (交际) with words. But do you think you can communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy and friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake your head, and people know you are saying “No. ” You nod (点头) , and people know you are saying “Yes. ” Other things can also carry message. For example, a sign (标志) at the bus helps you know which bus to take. A sign on the door tells you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time?People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawing to tell about beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things. Books are written to tell about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas.Books, magazines, TV, radio and films all help us communicate with others. They all help us to know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.59. Signs can carry as many _______ as words.A. questionsB. examplesC. tears and smilesD. messages60.
