Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the, best answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneMany a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there's a big difference between being a writer and writing. In most cases theseindividuals are dreaming of wealth and fame，not the long hours alo ne at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer, I had no prospects at all.What I did have was a friend who found for me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn't even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn't got a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn't going to be one of those people who died wondering. What if I would keep putting my dream to test (even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure). This is the shadow-land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.51. The passage is meant to _______ .A) warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB) encourage young people to pursue a writing careerC) show young people it is unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealthD) advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer52. What can be concluded from the passage?A) A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on effort.B) Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.C) Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D) The chances for writers to become successful are small.53. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A) He found his dream would never come true.B) He hadn't seen a change for the better.C) He wasn't able to have a rest for a whole year.D) He was not able to produce a single book.54. In Line 13“...people who died wondering”，“who” refers to those .A) who think a lot without making a decisionB) who regret giving up their career halfwayC) who think too much of the dark side of lifeD) who are full of imagination even upon deathPassage TwoStudents can travel in the United States without spending too much money if they follow these suggestions.A travel agent can give you information on special economy fares for trains, buses and planes. Think about hiking or biking for a part of your trip, too. You‘ll not only save money, but you'll also see a lot more of the country.Some students may want to travel by car. Be sure to think about going with other students —many colleges have '‘ride boards” that list when and where other students plan to travel. Many radio stations provide the same, sort of service —they announce who’s driving where, when,how many riders they will take and what the expenses will be.There are many inexpensive, older hotels near bus or train stations. Check your travel guide for names of the best. Many parts of the country also have youth hostels where young people can stay for only a few dollars a night.You don't have to eat in restaurants all the time, but we don?t recommend a diet of candy and cola, either. You can usually get a healthy, cheap breakfast in a restaurant. If the weather is warm, you can buy food in supermarkets or at roadside stands and have a picnic for lunch. For dinner you can get the names of good, cheap restaurants from travel guides or friends.55. The passage tells students ______ .A) how to get help while travelingB) how to make travel plansC) how to use less money while travelingD) how to choose hotels56. To see more of the country, you’d better travel ______ .A) by plane B) by train C) by bus D) by bike57. According to the passage, staying at youth hostels is ________ .A) cheap B) enjoyable C) comfortable D) convenient58. To save money, you can _______ .。

Since teachers areoften judged by examination results, they are reduced to training their students inexam techniques. No subjects can be taught successfully merely through beingapproached with intent to take examinations. In addition, the most undesirableeffect is that examinations encourage bad study habits. As the examination score isthe only criterion for his academic performance, a student is driven to memorizemechanically rather than to think creatively.In fact, few of us admit that examinations can contribute anything reallyimportant to the students’academic development.

But the number of young people who can 37 universities is limited by the capacity of the universities, which is 38than enough to take all the young people who have the basic qualifications for university admission. In practice, therefore, entry to the universities is competitive. But university degree courses are also 39 at polytechnics, and entry to the Open University is less restricted.The academic year begins after the summer holidays and is divided into three “terms”, with the 40 between them formed by the Christmas and Easter holidays. The exact dates of the holidays vary from area to area, 41 in general about two weeks at Christmas and Easter, plus often a week or more at Whitsun, and six weeks in the summer, beginning rather late. Schools outside the state system decide on their own holiday 42 , generally taking a month off at Christmas and Easter and eight weeks in the summer. The three terms are not everywhere called by the same names; indeed 43 schools call the January-March period “the Spring Term”, others use “Spring Term” for the periodApril-July. Some call the January term “Winter Term” (which is logical), others call it “Easter Term”.Day-schools mostly work Monday to Friday only, from about 9 44 to between 3 and 4 p.m. Lunch is provided and parents pay for it unless they prove to the authorities that they cannot well afford 45 .

This feast is a time when the family comes together for a meal and gives thanks to God for the blessings they have received. The first thanksgiving feast was celebrated by the early American settlers who started the feast to give thanks to God for their good harvest.In America thanksgiving is the family holiday. It is on that holiday that all the family members make a special effort to gather together . The feast is always held on Thursday and most people have a four-day holiday from school and work. Thus they are able to travel a great distance to be with their family.The thanksgiving meal is traditionally turkey which was a large bird valued as food for the first time. The table is filled with fruits, walnuts and many types of vegetables. For the sweet dish the main choice is usually pumpkin pie. The meal is a time for the members of the family to talk to each other. There will be talking before the meal, during the meal and long after the meal.On thanksgiving morning there are in many cities sporting events and parades to mark the day. The family dinner is usually held in the afternoon around 4p.m. . The mother will prepare the meal and the father will carve theturkey. He will be seated at the head of the table. The meal will begin with a short prayer of thanksgiving to God for the blessings the family received. The father will also thank the family for coming together on this day. During the meal there is plenty of food for everyone present. The meal is a very joyful time. When the meal is finished some will help with the dishes and others will return to the living room to talk or watch television.In many ways the feast of thanksgiving is similar to the Chinese feast ofMid-Autumn Festival. It is the time for the family to gather together to give thanks and to share in meal.46.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies haveshown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51. This passage is mainly about ______.A) living space and behaviorB) population and living conditionsC) interesting experiments on ratsD) a natural law for human society52. What is the purpose of theexperiments described in the passage?A) To determine how much living space a rat needs.B) To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C) To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D) To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53. How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded? A) They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B) They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C) They eat little but sleep soundly.D) They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54. The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A) are directly related with populationB) may cause an increase in violenceC) may lead to high birth rateD) may bring about pollution problems Passage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto ( 世界语) , was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto isspoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role. 55. Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______. A) all people will be able to speak a common languageB) people will learn a foreign language betterC) people can understand each other betterD) people will be able to speak several languages56. Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A) he wanted people to learn it quicklyB) he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC) he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD) he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57. Which of the following is NOT true of English?A) It is widely taught in schools.B) It has become a second language for many millions of people.C) Many books have been written in English.D) It is less popular than Esperanto.58. What is the best title of the passage?A) The language made by one man.B) A talk about the world language.C) English as a second language for everyone.D) Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25 ,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a. m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years havestrengthened the city ’ s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake - resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake - resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations.When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.A) new computers had been installed in the buildingsB) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways 60. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______. A) counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake’ s vibrations61.

Each passage is followed by four questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A，B，C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneDebate is a valuable way to practise communicating.It can also bring long-lasting rewards，especially for people working with Western businesses.The main activity of debate is presenting one's opinion and supporting it with evidence，such as statistics or facts.It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the"Discover Debate"method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business.Successful debaters learn how to give their opinion，reasons and support."What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact(交流)with someone else's opinion，rather than brush their opinion aside."Debate skills are also important in selling a product，he says.In that situation，the judges are the customers."So on Monday，for example，one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they"ll make as strong a ease as they can.On Tuesday，the next day，another company will come in and present their ease to the ually the party that can present the strongest case wins”Debate also strengthens critical thinking.In other words，it helps students learn to ask questions and try to understand someone's reasons and evidence.lift-.Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying.Then，they look for the weak points in someone else's opinion or argument.He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else' s point of view.Mr.Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind."There's an expression in English：don't criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes.I think the wonderful thing about debate is，it puts us in another person's shoes."36.According to Paragraph1，what is the purpose of debate?A.To bring long-lasting material rewards.B.To present evidence such as statistics and facts.C.To respond to questions in a systematic way.D.To persuade people to accept your opinions.37.Why is debate important.A.It helps people understand others better.B.It allows people to present their opinions.C.It develops one's thinking and communicative competence.D.It gives one the opportunity to brush others'opinion aside.38.What does the underlined word“case”in Paragraph3refer to?A.Container.B.Evidence.C.Problem.D.Product.39.What can debaters benefit from“walking in another person' s shoes”.A.Becoming more broad-minded.B.Developing critical thinking.C.Finding others'weak points.D.Trying out others'methods.Passage TwoWe all love a hero，and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all.You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone，risking--and at times losing--their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups，or from the traditional Herding Group.These types include the Bloodhound，Labrador Retriever，Newfoundland，German Shepherd，Golden Retriever，and Belgian Malinois--all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength，loyalty，and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell--to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas.As highly trained animals，they serve in many different fields，including specialist search，snow slide rescue，dead body location，and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker，a dog must display certain qualities.In addition to intelligence and strength，the dog must be swift，confident，easily trainable，adaptable，and have a high level of stamina(耐力)and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during"down"time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many，many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty.Training is not for the faint-hearted.Certification training can take from two to three years，working three to four hours a day，three to sixdays a week，often in group，team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training.Rescue training，for instance，includes"air scenting"--where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim's scent(气味)and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.40.Rescue dogs are chosen probably because__A.they are loyalB.they are braveC.they have amazing appearancesD.they have good eyesight41.What does"faint-hearted"in Paragraph5mean??A.Courageous.B.Cowardly.C.Energetic.D.Slow.42.Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A.Sharp hearing.B.Swift movement.C.Extraordinary smelling.D.A strong memory.43.What is the passage mainly about?A.Selection process of rescue dogs.B.Qualities and training of rescue dogs.C.Risks rescue dogs are faced with.D.Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeEating an apple a day doesn't keep the doctor away，but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year.That's according to a new study that investigates whether there's any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis，of the University of Michigan School of Nursing，asked8，399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health.A total of753were apple eaters，consuming at least149g of raw apple per day.The remaining7，646were classed as non-apple eaters.When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year，the apple eaters were found to be27%less likely to visit the druggist for drugs. Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption，though."Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away.However，the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications，"the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters.While apples do not compete with oranges，they do contain some immune(免疫的)system-increasing vitamin C，which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less.With over8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit，an apple can provide roughly14%your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type2diabetes(二型糖尿病)，improved lung function and a lower risk of colon(结肠)cancer.44.How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A.149.B.7，646.C.753.D.8，399.45.What is the conclusion of the study?A.Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults'trips to the doctor.B.An apple a day does keep the doctor away.C.Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D.A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.46.What can we learn from the passage?A.Apples are better than oranges.B.Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.C.Apples can help cure certain diseases.D.Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.47.What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A.Objective.B.Creative.C．subjective D．persuasivePassage FourSometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government's efforts to improve schools：new standards and tests to be applied，strict teacher evaluations，and threats of school closures and job losses.They frighten the school employees，not to mention the students.Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas--which is what fear does to us--research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach.In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools，Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was atthe heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing：psychological safety or safety to speak one's mind，to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn't working，to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn't come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider，the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity（正直).The challenge is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught，each teacher had different expectations about how much effort teachers should put into their work--a big difference between the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening.And when expectations are unconscious or unspoken，it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person's behavior.As we all Imam，assumptions are often wrong. For example，parents and teachers my think the principal made a particular decision based on his career advancement rather than hat"s best for the students.don't feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations，trust flies out the window and our relationships suffer.48.According to Paragraph1，why does the author scratch his head?A.Because he doesn't know what to do once schools are closed.B.Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C.Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D.Because he is not in favor of the government's reform efforts.49.According to Bryk and Schneider，what was most important for successful school improvement?A.New standards and tests in schools.B.Positive social relationships.C.Strict teacher and student evaluations.D.Assistance of the government.50.What is meant by trust in school?A.Freedom to express one's views，B.Extra effort teachers put into their work.C.Independence of the teachers in schools.D.Unconscious and unspoken expectations.51.What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person's behavior?A.They should be trusted.B.They are often bold.C.They are often incorrect.D.They should be encouraged.Passage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe，Latin America，Asia and the US that live to be100have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role，but these folks also have strong social ties，tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones，as described in author Dan Buettner’s latest book，The Blue Zones Solution，we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions.In fact，Buettner's Blue Zones Beverage Rule--a kind of guideline summarized from his15or so years of studying these places--is："Drink coffee for breakfast，tea in the afternoon，wine at5p.m"Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea.Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea，as well as foods like cocoa.Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break1007Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke，heart disease and several cancers.One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism(新陈代谢).If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria，the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean，you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves.Instead，Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day--either rosemary，wild sage，oregano，maijoram，mint or dandelion，all plants that may have anti-inflammatory(消炎的)properties，which may help lower blood pressure.This could explain Ikaria's very low dementia (痴呆)rate，since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.52.What does the underlined word"centenarians"in Paragraph 1refer to?A.People who have secret lifestyles.B.People who enjoy physical exercise.C.People who are one hundred years old or older.D.People who carry the gene for being slim.53.According to Paragraph3，what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A.In the morning.B.Any time of a day.C.In the early evening.D.In the afternoon.54.What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?A.To improve metabolism.B.To lower blood pressure.C.To lower life stress.D.To improve social relationships.55.What might be the best title of the passage?A.Tea-Drinking TipsB.Lifestyle Secrets of IkariansC.Tea-Drinking Ceremony in OkinawaD.Blue Zones SolutionsⅤ.Daily Conversation(15points)Directions：Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.Can I speak to Mr.Johnson，pleaseB.I’ll tell him you’ve calledC.I’ll give him the messageD.What can I do for youE.Can you tell him that we can meet tomorrow afternoon in my officeF.Can I take a messageG.Can you ask him to call me back as soon as possibleH.That’s rightWoman：Hello，Mr.Johnson's office.Man：Good morning.56？Woman：Sorry，he's in a meeting at the moment.57？Man：Yes.This is Steve Lee from Bright light Systems.58？Woman：Tomorrow afternoon in your office.Man：59Woman：Okay.60Man：Thank you.第Ⅱ卷（非选择题，共25分）Ⅵ.Writing(25points)Directions：For this part，you are supposed to write an essay in English in100-120words based on the following information.

He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else' s point of view. Mr.Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind. "There' s an expression in English : don' t criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is, it puts us in another person' s shoes."36.

You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone, risking--and at times losing--their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups, or from the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound, Labrador Retriever, Newfoundland, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Belgian Malinois--all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength, loyalty, and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell--to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals, they serve in many different fields, including specialist search, snow slide rescue, dead body location, and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker, a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength, the dog must be swift, confident, easily trainable, adaptable, and have a high level of stamina (耐力) and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during "down" time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many, many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted. Certification training can take from two to three years, working three to four hours a day, three to six days a week, oftenin group,team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue training, for instance, includes "air scenting"--where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim' s scent (气味) and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.40. Rescue dogs are chosen probably because__A. they are loyalB. they are braveC. they have amazing appearancesD. they have good eyesight41. What does "faint-hearted" in Paragraph 5 mean??A. Courageous.B. Cowardly.C. Energetic.D. Slow.42. Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A. Sharp hearing.B. Swift movement.C. Extraordinary smelling.D. A strong memory.43. What is the passage mainly about?A. Selection process of rescue dogs.B. Qualities and training of rescue dogs.C. Risks rescue dogs are faced with.D. Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeEating an apple a day doesn' t keep the doctor away, but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year. That ' s according to a newstudy that investigates whether there' s any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis, of the University of Michigan School of Nursing,asked 8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters, consuming at least 149g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7,646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption, though. "Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications," the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges, they docontain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C, which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit, an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes (二型糖尿病) ,improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (结肠) cancer.44. How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A. 149.B. 7,646.C. 753.D. 8,399.45. What is the conclusion of the study?A. Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults' trips to the doctor.B. An apple a day does keep the doctor away.C. Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D. A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.46. What can we learn from the passage?A. Apples are better than oranges.B. Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.C. Apples can help cure certain diseases.D. Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.47. What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A. Objective.B. Creative.C．subjectiveD．persuasivePassage FourSometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government' s efforts to improve schools:new standards and tests to be applied, strict teacher evaluations, and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees,not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas--which is what fear does to us--research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools, Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing:psychological safety or safety to speak one's mind,to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn' t working,to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn' t come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider, the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity （正直). The challeage is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught, each teacher had different expectations about how much effort teachers should put into their work--a big difference between the teachers who left af~the last bell and those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are uncoasci or unspoken, it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person' s behavior. As we all Imam,assumptions are often wrong. For example, parents and teachers my think the principal taml particular decision based on his career advancementrather than hat" s best for the studeata. don't feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and e~aecmtiatm, trust itiea am the window and our relationships suffer.48. According to Paragraph 1,why does the author scratch his head?A. Because he doesn' t know what to do once schools are closed.B. Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C. Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D. Because he is not in favor of the government' s reform efforts.49. According to Bryk and Schneider, what was most important for successful school improvemt?A. New standards and tests in schools.B. Positive social relationships.C. Strict teacher and student evaluations.D. Assistance of the government.50. What is meant by trust in school?A. Freedom to express one' s views,B. Extra effort teachers put into their work.C. Independence of the teachers in schools.D. Unconscious and unspoken expectations.51. What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person's behavior?A. They should be trusted.B. They are often bold.C. They are often incorrect.D. They should be encouraged.Passage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest, hest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe, Latin America,Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role, but these folks also have strong social ties ,tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones, as described in author Dan Buettner" s latest book, The Blue Zones Solution, we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact, Buettner' s Blue Zones Beverage Rule--a kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of studying these places--is:" Drink coffee for breakfast, tea in the afternoon, wine at 5 p. tm"Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea. Researchers are most enthusi- astic almt the components in green tea, as well as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okina~vans in Japan break 1007 Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke,heart disease attd several cancers. One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism (新陈代谢).If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria, the Greek Blue Zone in the middleof the Aegean, you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves. Instead, Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day--either rosemary, wild sage,oregano,nmrjotmn,mint or dandelion,all plants that may have anti-inflammatory (消炎的) properties,which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikaria' s very low dementia (痴呆) rate,since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.52. What does the underlined word "centenarians" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. People who have secret lifestyles.B. People who enjoy physical exercise.C. People who are one hundred years old or older.D. People who carry the gene for being slim.53. According to Paragraph 3 ,what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A. In the morning.B. Any time of a day.C. In the early evening.D. In the afternoon.54. What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?A. T o improve metabolism.B. To lower blood pressure.C. T o lower life stress.D. T o improve social relationships.55. What might be the best title of the passage?A. T ea-Drinking TipsB. Lifestyle Secrets of IkariansC. T ea-Drinking Ceremony in OkinawaD.

If you are, you probably know that your house, possessions and person are increasingly in danger of suffering from great rise in the cases of burglary and attack（攻击）.Figures show an ever-increasing crime rate, but it is only too easy to imagine "It will never happen to me".

Protect Alarms can help to protect your house with a burglar alarm system which is effective, simple to operate and easily affordable.You must remember that owning a burglar alarm is no indication that your house is packed with valuable possessions.

I'm away from home, so I have many thingsto adjust to, such as being on my own and meeting many different types of people. There are a lot of things that I like about college that I would like to describe for you.First of all, living at college gives me a sense of responsibility and of being on my own. My parents aren't around to say, "No, you're not going out tonight," or "Did you finish your homework?" Everything I do has to be my decision, and that makes me responsible for my own life. During the second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. And when I got to the bank, I had to decide whether to have a checking or savings account and whether or not to get a credit card. Decisions! Decisions!Friendly people is another thing I like about college. On the first day I came to Mary mount University here in Virginia from New York, I was a bit confused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in. We did not know the building we were supposed to go to, but the guard was very nice. With a smile, he told us what building we were looking for and where we could park our car. My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, and I knew I had to go through some glass doors, but my mother and I didn't know which ones. Some students saw me and asked, "Are you a new student?" When they found out I was looking for New Gerard, one said, "Oh, just follow us; that's where we're going." Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendly people around to talk with.I do like a lot of things about college, but that doesn't mean I don't think about things at home. Although I like college, I can still get homesick. New York is a very good place, too! And sometimes I miss it!76. The text is perhaps written by ________.A. a new studentB. a new teacherC. a foreign reporterD. a foreign visitor77. What does "gives me a sense of responsibility" in the first sentence of Paragraph 2 mean? It means it makes me feel ________.A. responsible for my parents.B. responsible for my teacher.C. responsible for the school.D.responsible for myself.78. One thing that he liked was ________.A. the comfortable dormB. finding his way aroundC. his studies as a first year studentD. the friendly people79. What is New Gerard?A. It's a student's name.B. It's a teacher's name.C. It's a dorm's name.D. It's a school's name.80. Which of the following is NOT true?A. People in Mary mount University are friendly.B. The writer likes the new experience in the university.C. The writer drove to Mary mount University with his mother.D. The writer is not homesick-questionsPart IV Translation(2×10)Directions:There are 10 sentences in this part please translate sentences 81-85 from Chinese into English,and translate sentences 86-90 from English into Chinese.Write your answer on the Answer sheet.81.众所周知，肺癌至少部分地是由于吸烟过多而引起的。
