following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.（A）Being alone in outer space can be frightening.That is one reason why astronauts on solo（单独的）space flight were given plenty of work to keep them45.They were also in constant communication with people on the earth,46,being with people from whom you cannot get away might be even harder than being alone.This is what happens on long submarine （潜水艇）voyages.It will also happen on47space flights in the future.Will there be special problems of adjustment under such conditions?Scientists have studied the reactions of men to one another during long submarine voyages. They have found that the longer the voyage lasts,the more serious the problem of48is. When men are49together for a long period,they begin to feel uneasy.Everyone has little habits of speaking and behaving that are ordinarily acceptable.In the limited space over a long period of time,however,these little habits may become very50.Apparently,although no one wants to be51all the time,everyone needs some degree of privacy.When people are enclosed together,they are in what is called a stress situation. That means that they are under an unusual amount of52or stress.People who are well-adjusted are able to53stress situations better than others. That is one reason why so much care is taken in54our astronauts.These men undergo a long period of testing and training.One of the things tested is their behaviour under stress.45．A．tiredB．asleepC．consciousD．busy46．A．So farB．After allC．HoweverD．Therefore47．A．longB．fastC．dangerousD．direct48．A．fuelB．entertainmentC．adjustmentD．health49．A．shut upB．held upC．brought upD．picked up50．A．pleasingB．annoyingC．commonD．valuable51．A．noisyB．aloneC．personalD．sociable52．A．emphasisB．conflictC．powerD．pressure53．A．handleB．createC．affectD．investigate54．A．becomingB．choosingC．orderingD．promoting（B）One topic is rarely mentioned in all the talk of improving standards in our schools:the almost complete failure of foreign-language teaching.As a French graduate who has taught for more thantwenty-five years,I believe I have some idea of why the failure is so total.55the faults already found out in the education system as a whoie-such as child-centred learning,the “discovery”method,and the low expectations by teachers of pupils-there have been several serious56which have a direct effect on language teaching.The first is the removal from the curriculum（课程）of the thorough teaching of English 57.Pupils now do not know a verb from a noun,the subject of a sentence from its object,or the difference between the past,present,or future.Another important error is mixed-ability teaching,or teaching in ability groups so58 that the most able pupils are59and are bored while the least able are lost and60 Bored.Strangely enough,few head teachers seem to be in favour of mixed-ability school football teams.Progress depends on memory,and pupils start to forget immediately they stop having 61lessons.This is why many people who attended French lessons at school,even those who got good grades,have forgotten it a few years later.62they never need it,they do not practice it.Most American schools have accepted what is inevitable and63modem languages,even Spanish,from the curriculum.Perhaps it is time for Britaio to do the same,and stop64resources on a subject which few pupils want or need.55．A．Due toB．In addition toC．Instead ofD．In spite of56．A．errorsB．situationsC．systemsD．methods57．A．vocabularyB．cultureC．grammarD．literature58．A．wideB．similarC．separateD．unique59．A．kept outB．turned downC．help backD．left behind60．A．surprisinglyB．individuallyC．equallyD．regular61．A．extraB．traditionalC．basicD．regular62．A．AlthoughB．BecauseC．UntilD．Unless63．A．restoredB．absorbedC．prohibitedD．withdrawn64．A．wastingB．focusingC．exploitingD．sharingIV．Reading ComprehensionDirections：Read the following four passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（A）What do you want to be when you grow up?A teacher?A doctor?How about an ice-Cream taster?Yes,there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice cream.Just ask John Harrison,an “Official Taste Tester”for the past21years.Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product’s quality.During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream–as well as for developing over75flavors（味道）.Some people think that it would be casy to do this job;after all,you just have to like ice cream,right?No–there’s more to the job than that,says Harrison,who has a degree in chemistry.He points out that a dairy or food–science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this“cool”field.In a typical morning on the job,Harrison tastes and assesses60ice-cream samples.He lets the ice cream warm up to about12F.Harrison explains,“You get more flavor from warmer ice cream,which is why some kids like to stir it,creating ice-cream soup.”While the ice cream warms up,Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance.“Tasting begins with the eyes,”he explains.He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself,“Does the product have the colour expected from that flavor?”Next it’s time to taste!Continuing to think up new ideas、try out new flavors、and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy–working at once cool job.65．what is John Harrison’s job?A．An official.B．An ice-cream taster.C．A chemist.D．An ice-cream manufacturer.66．According to John Harrison,to be qualified in the“cool field”,it is helpful to.A．keep a diary of workB．have a degree in related subjectsC．have new ideas every dayD．find out new flavors each day67．What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream?A．He stirs the ice cream.B．He examines the colour of the ice cream.C．He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.D．He lets the ice cream warm up.68．Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?A．Tasting with EyesB．Flavors of Ice CreamC．John Harrison’s LifeD．One Cool Job（B）（You may read the questions first.）SCREENGRABSBBC1PLANET EARTH9PMFresh Water provides an expansive subject forthe third programme in the BBC’s fascinatingnew natural history

when the timecomes for the first guests to take their leave,they discover that their host has been stabbedthrough the heart.CHANNEL4THE GAMES：LIVE69．The Fresh Water series at9PM.A．explores the lakes,rivers and the creatures in themB．is devoted to the freshwater creatures in the worldC．explains the relationship among inhabitants on the earthD．focuses on the deepest river on the planet70．The phrase“stow away”most probably means“”A．hide secretlyB．talk excitedlyC．operate easilyD．guide successfully71．A mystery story adapted from Agatha Christie’s novel will be shown on.A．BBC1B．BBC2C．ITV1D．Channel4（C）Mail carriers will be delivering some good news and some bad news this week.The bad news:Stamp prices are expected to rise2cents in May to41cents,the Postal Regulatory Commission announced yesterday.The good news:With the introduction of a “forever stamp,”it may be the last time Americans have to use annoying2-or3-cent stamps to make up postage diffcrences.Beginning in May,people would be able to purchase the stamps in booklets of20at the regular rate of a first-elass stamp.As the name implies,“forever stamps”will keep their first-class mailing value forever,even when the postage rate goes up.The new“forever stamp”is the United States Postal Service’（USPS）answer to the complaints about frequent rate increases.The May increase will be the fifth in a decade.Postal rates have risen because of inflation（通货膨胀），competition from online bill paying,and therising costs of employee benefits,including healthcare,says Mark Saunders,a Spokesman for USPS.The USPS expects some financial gain from sales of the“forever stamp”and the savings from not printing as many2-or3-cent stamps.“It’s not your grandfather’s stamp,”says Mr. Saunders.“It could be your great-grandchildren’s stamp.”Other countries,including Canada,England,and Finland use similar stamps.Don Schilling,who has collected stamps for50years,he’s interested in the public’s reaction.“This is an entirely new class of stamps,”Mr.Schilling says.He adds that he’ll buy the stamps because he will be able to use them for a long period of time,not because they could make him rich-the volume printed will be too large for collectors.“We won’t be able to send our kids to college on these,”he says,laughing.The USPS board of governors has yet o accept the Postal Regulatory Commission’s decision, but tends to follow its recommendations.No plans have been announced yet for the design of the stamps.72．The main purpose of introducing a“forever stamp”is.A．to reduce the cost of printing2-or3-cent stampsB．to help save the consumers’cost on first-class mailingC．to respond to the complaints about rising postal ratesD．to compete with online bill paying73．By saying“It could be your great-grand children’s stamp”,Mr Saunders means that forever stamps.A．could be collected by one’s great-grandchildrenB．might be very precious in great-grandchildren’s handsC．might have been inherited from one’s great-grandfathersD．could be used by one’s great-grandchildren even decades later74．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．The investment in forever stamps will bring adequate reward.B．America will be the first country to issue forever stamps.C．The design of the“forever stamp”remains to be revealed.D．2-or3-cent stamps will no longer be printed in the future.75．What can be concluded from the passage?A．With forever stamps,there will be no need to worry about rate changes.B．Postal workers will benefit most form the sales of forever stamps.C．The inflation has become a threat to the sales of first-class stamps.D．New interest will be aroused in collecting forever stamps.（D）The traditional tent cities at festivals such as Glastonbury may never be the same again.In a victory of green business that is certain to appeal to environmentally-aware music-lovers,a design student is to receive financial support to produce eco-friendly tens made of cardboard that can be recycled after the bands and the crowds have gone home.Major festivals such as Glastonbury throw away some10,000abandoned tents at the end of events each year.For his final year project at the University of the West of England,James Dunlop came up with a material that can be recycled.And to cope with the British summer,the cardboardhas been made waterproof.Taking inspiration from a Japanese architect,who has used cardboard to make big buildings including churches,Mr Dunlop used cardboard material for his tents,which he called Myhabs.The design won an award at the annual New Designers Exhibition after Mr Dunlop Graduated from his product design degree and he decided to try to turn it into a business.To raise money for the idea,he toured the City’s private companies which fund new businesses and found a supporter in the finance group Mint.He introduced his idea to four of Mint’s directors and won their support.Mint has committed around￡500,000to MyHab and taken a share of30per cent in Mr Dunlop’s business.The first Myhabs should be tested at festivals this summer,before being marketed fully next year.Mr Dunlop said that the design,which accommodates two people,could have other uses, such as for disaster relief and housing for the London Olympics.For music events,the cardboard houses will be ordered online and put up at the sites by the Myhab team before the festival-goers arrive and removed by the company afterwards,They can be Personalized and the company will offer reductions on the expense if people agree to sell exterior （外部的）advertising space.The biggest festivals attract tens of thousands of participants,with Glastonhury having some 150,000each year.Altogether there are around100annual music festivals where people camp in the UK.The events are becoming increasingly environmentally conscious.76．“Eco-friendly tents”in paragraph1refer to tents.A．economically desirableB．favorable to the environmentC．for holding music performancesD．designed for disaster relief77．Mr Dunlop established his business.A．independently with an interest-free loan from MintB．with the approval of the City’s administrationC．in partnership with a finance groupD．with the help of a Japanese architect78．It is implied in the passage that.A．the weather in the UK.Is changeable in summerB．most performances at British festivals are given in the open airC．the cardboard tents produced by Mr Dunlop can be user-tailoredD．cardboard tents can be easily put up and removed by users79．The passage is mainly concerned with.A．an attempt at developing recyclable tentsB．some efforts at making full use of cardboardsC．an unusual success of a graduation projectD．the effects of using cardboard tents on music festivals（E）Directions:Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph.There is one extra heading which you do not need.An interview with Wynton Marsalis,a noted jazz musician80．There were the older jazz musicians who hung around our house when I was young.I saw how much they practiced,how serious they were about their art.I knew then I had to work just as hard if I wanted to succeed.Of course,my father inspired me a lot,and many teachers took the time to nurture my latent and the talents of other students in our school.81．Yes.We’ve done such a poor job with music education because,as a society,we haven’t maintained the kind of education that a true artist and musician needs.Young people haven’t been able to equate romance and talent with music.For instance,most of the people who make it in the music industry today have to look good.How they sound is secondary.Sarah Vaughan,Bessie Smith,Ella Fitzgerald—those big,romantic queens of jazz music wouldn’t make it in today’s music industry,and that’s a shame.We need to teach young people about the alternatives.82．Around the would people make music that,if you listen carefully to it,sounds a little like the cadence of their language.I’d call it folk music.When I’m away from home,I make a point of listening to regional folk music,not what’s on the radio.83．The same music is on the radio all over the world,and the American sound is overwhelming.Even the pop music that’s produced and created in foreign countries has that American beat,that underscore of funk.As a musician,I’m not interested in hearing recycled versions of the same genre over and over.Any music that doesn’t have a development section just isn’t interesting to me.84．The music press has so much to introduce these days,and jazz is just a small fraction of it. Because some people are intimidated by jazz,they don’t cover it unless it’s a big name.New jazz musicians don’t get much of break.A lot of editors don’t say anything about jazz these days unless it’s Marsalis.That’s a shame.What VH1is doing with their Save the Music campaign is phenomenal.They’re getting all these instruments out to needy kids.It’s the kind of thing all networks should be doing.第Ⅱ卷（共45分）I．TranslationDirections:：Translate the following sentences into English using the words given in thebrackets.1．他们的新房子离学校很远。

AAttending college can be expensive, and applying to college can be costly as well. With today’s college application fees averaging around $ 80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school.One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. T o save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2-3 reach schools and 2-3 safety schools.At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application. If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you’re qualified for it.Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions. This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the application information.Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sureto contact the schools to I j which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in that state.Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program. If you are accepted, you won’t have to submit application fees to other schools.For more information regarding college applications and the fees associated with them, contact your high I school advisor or the admissions department at your school(s) of interest.21. The passage is mainly written to______.A. introduce famous universities in the United StalesB. show some practical ways to apply an ideal collegeC. advertise for successful applications and advisorsD. offer tips to save money on college application fees22. What does the author advise to do in the second paragraph?A. Write down your favorite universities.B. Reduce the number of your university choices.C. Apply to two universities each time.D. Mind your safety when applying to college.23. Some schools offer free online application to______,A. receive fees faster than beforeB. employ someone else to workC. cut down the cost of employmentD. enter the application information24. It can be known from the passage that______,A. application fee might be canceled conditionallyB. many countries attend College Application WeekC. applying for early admission is the best policyD. admission departments determine your futureBEvery year, some 6.9 million children under the age of five die from diseases like malaria, pneumonia and HIV. The untold story of child survival is that the global community now has the combined knowledge, technical know-how and affordable tools to end such child deaths. Evidence shows that it is possible to decrease under-five death rates in developing countries to levels approaching those in wealthier countries.That is why 4 years ago —June, 2012 —the US, Ethiopia and India joined the United Nations Children’s Fund (or UNICEF) to launch Child Survival Call to Action, a global effort to save children’s lives. The goal was to lower child death rates in the hardest-hit countries to 20 deaths per 1,000 live births by the year 2035.Zambia started a plan focused on nutrition and immunization (免疫) that will save more than 26,000 children each year. Congo is distributing pre-packaged supplies to prevent and treat the most common killers. They hope to save the lives of half a million children by 2017. Similar efforts are taking place in Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Yemen, and elsewhere.Child Survival partner companies are also developing life-saving vaccines (疫苗) and treatment for diarrhea. Private enterprisers and medical professionals are training and equipping health workers in 54 countries with life-saving tools. Still others are developing and delivering safe water treatment and storage products.“This high-level forum inspired a global movement —Committing to Child Survival: A PromiseRenewed,”wrote UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake. “Four years passing, it continues to build and, today, 174 countries and over 400 civil society and faith-based organizations have taken up the charge in their own commitments. While we still have a long way to go, the first 4 years have seen impressive gains.”25.

Cold.CHow you feel and react to your environment on a day-to-day basis can be measured by your behavior, thoughts, and emotions. Your personality gives you away!There are four fundamental characteristics of personality. First, it is constant and people tend tobehave in the same way when they meet similar situations. Second, personality not only influences actions, but it also actually causes people to behave in specific ways. Third, personality is influenced by both psychological and biological factors. Finally, personality is expressed not only in behaviors, but through emotions, thoughts, social behavior, and close relationships. How the world distinguishes you is a direct reflection of and reaction to how you present yourself to them. Race, age, and sex are qualities you have no control over, but certainly contribute to your personality because of how the world senses you based on them. A person who continuously experiences racial discrimination may guard himself against it by at first seeming cold and unfriendly. But once he opens up, you may discover someone completely different inside.Physical ones, which you develop over time, also contribute to your personality, and include walking pace, eye contact, and facial expressions. How you want the world to see you influences how you present yourself to others. Characteristics such as altitude, response and general mindset create the surface of your one-of-a-kind personality.If you’re like many people, the aspects of your personality you choose to show might depend on the people you meet. For instance, the personality you exhibit around your boss is probably a lot different from the personality you show to your closest friends. All of these elements make up the “you”that only you truly know. And only you can decide when to share these parts of your personality with other colleagues.29. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Some aspects of personality.B. Ways to develop personality.C. What contributes to personality.D. Why personality is important.30. It can be known from Paragraph 2 that______.A. one’s personality is merely determined by birthB. personality consists of behavior, thoughts and relationshipsC. personality has nothing to do with one’s career lifeD. the environment and the situation influence one’s personality31. The intended readers for the passage are probably______.A. receptionistsB. studentsC. office clerksD. police officersDFor many. Daylight Saving Time (DST: 夏令时) simply means remembering to change the clocks and twisting your sleep schedule. “Even though the time change is only an hour, it is something that causes much more destruction than people believe,”said Dr. John Sharp, a psychologist and psychiatrist at Beth-Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. “It’s not just an extra hour of sleep; it’s more of a fast-forward into winter.”With days getting darker earlier, Sharp suggests making a to-do list for activities after work ahead of time. “Any plans you have, say, going to the gym after work, require much more effort and determination. It’s much better to plan more carefully and not just rely on how you feel, especially when it is dark out,”he said. “Figure it out in advance and stick with the plan.”In addition. Sharp says in the weeks after Daylight Saving, some may feel like they have a bigger appetite. “Eating more during this time is not the answer. People need to stay on an eating schedule and keep up healthy habits. ”However, Sharp said there are ways to better acclimate yourself to the time change. If you are having trouble sleeping, he suggests taking some melatonin (退黑激素) in the evening. Incontrast, if you find yourself feeling sleepy. Sharp said there is nothing wrong with adding an extra caffeinated drink during your day.A word to the wise? One sure way to better adjust to the time change is to start going to bed15 minutes earlier starting four days before Daylight Saving, adding an additional 15 minutes each night.32. Which is probably the best title for the passage?A. Are you prepared for DST?B. Why DST was introduced?C. What DST has brought to life?D. How DST has been popular?33. What does John Sharp suggest in Paragraph 2?A. Getting up earlier than before.B. Sticking to the daily routine.C. Being aware of quality sleep.D. Getting well-prepared for DST.34. The underlined word “acclimate”in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by______.A. adoptB. accelerateC. adaptD. acknowledge35. The passage is probably taken from______.A. a scientific reportB. an interviewC. a speechD. a statement第二节（共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

III. Reading ComprehensionSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice-cream taster?Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice-cream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream — as well as for developing over 75 flavors (味道).Some people think that it would be easy to do this job, after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No —there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field.In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12℉. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup.”While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the color expected from that flavor?” Next it’s time to taste!Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy — working at one cool job.65. What is John Harrison’s job?A. An official.B. An ice-cream taster.C. A chemist.D. An ice-cream manufacturer.66. According to John Harrison, to be qualified in the “cool field”, it is helpful to ______.A. keep a diary of workB. have a degree in related subjectsC. have new ideas every dayD. find out new flavors each day67. What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream?A. He stirs the ice cream.B. He examines the color of the ice cream.C. He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.D. He lets the ice cream warm up.68. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?A. Tasting with EyesB. Flavors of Ice CreamC. John Harrison’s LifeD. One Cool JobKeys: 65-68 BBDDIII.

Besides, now the school says there must be no homework because thelocal secondary school can't keep up with the amount of homework givenin the primary school. Can the school do this? Puzzled DadIt can't if enough parents do something about it. It is not just schools. We live in a society which wishes to get rid of risk. However, schools should have a little common sense and courage. Children need risk if they arc to grow up self-sufficient and confident. They need homework, too, if they are to fulfill their academic potential. Complain, loudly.I have a beautiful teenage daughter who spends an hour making up her face in front ofthe mirror every day. I tell her to go easy. She just gets mad or bursts into tears. How can I make her understand she's beautiful the way she is. Plain MomYou can't. Your daughter is at the age when she's trying to look beautiful, trying on new masks. And if her friends all dress up as she docs, you're in for an extra hard time. Support her and tell her she's beautiful — even if she looks ridiculous for now. Then invite her to join you for a day at a spa(健康美容中心).

Instead both men opened bookshops on opposite sides of Coleford High Street. It was hard to make money from books, which made the competition between them worse.Now with only one bookshop in town, business was better for George. But sometimes he sat in his narrow , old kitchen and gazed out of the dirty window , thinking about his former rival (竞争对手). Perhaps he missed him?George was very interested in old dictionaries, He’d recently found a co llector in Australia who was selling a rare first edition. When the parcel arrived, the book was in perfect condition and George was delighted. But while he was having lunch, George glanced at the photo in the newspaper that the book had been wrapped in. He was astonished—the smiling face was older than he remembered but unmistakable! Trembling, George started reading.“Bookends have bought ten bookstores from their rivals Dylans.

Reading ComprehensionSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up -- how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old fife. "Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase," she says.But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun. "My work," she says, "is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man." And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. "Eventually they grow to lovetheir tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans," she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!65. For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to .A. get long lasting excitementB. keep both man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. make the angry elephants tame66. Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, .A. she spent her time hunting with her fatherB. she learned how to sing love songsC. she had already been called an elephant princessD. she was taught how to hunt tigers67. Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because __________.A. they are caught and sent for heavy workB. illegal hunters capture them and kill themC. they are attacked and their land gets limitedD. dogs often bark at them and chase them68.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The teacher who did the most to encourage me was, as it happened, my aunt. She was Myrtle C. Manigault, the wife of my mother’s brother Bill. She taught in second grade at all-black Summer School in Camden, New Jersey.During my childhood and youth, Aunt Myrtle encouraged me to develop every aspect of my potential, without regard for what was considered practical or possible for black females. I liked to sing; she listened to my voice and pronounced it good. I couldn’t dance; she taught me the basic dancing steps. She took me to the theatre not just children’s theatre but adult comedies and dramas—and her faith that I could appreciate adult plays was not disappointed.My aunt also took down books from her extensive library and shared them with me. I had books at home, but they were all serious classics. Even as a child I had a strong liking for humor, and I’ll never forget the joy of discovering Don Marquis’s Archy & Mehitabel through her.Most important, perhaps, Aunt Myrtle provided my first opportunity to write for publication.A writer herself for one of the black newspapers, she suggested my name to the editor as a “youth columnist”. My column, begun when I was fourteen, was supposed to cover teenage social activities—and it did—but it also gave me the freedom to write on many other subjects as well as the habit of gathering material, the discipline of meeting deadlines, and, after graduation from college six years later, a solid collection of published material that carried my name and was my passport to a series of writing jobs.Today Aunt Myrtle is still an enthusiastic supporter of her “favourite niece”. Like a diamond, she has reflected a bright, multifaceted(多面的) image of possibilities to every pupil w ho has crossed her path.65. Which of the following did Aunt Myrtle do to the author during her childhood and youth?A. She lent her some serious classics.B. She cultivated her taste for music.C. She discovered her talent for dancing.D. She introduced her to adult plays.66. What does Archy and Mehitabel in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?A. A book of great fun.B. A writer of high fame.C. A serious masterpiece.D. A heartbreaking play.67. Aunt Myrtle recommended the author to a newspaper editor mainly to ______.A. develop her capabilities for writingB. give her a chance to collect materialC. involve her in teenage social activitiesD. offer her a series of writing jobs68. We can conclude from the passage that Aunt Myrtle was a teacher who ______.A. trained pupils to be diligent and well-disciplinedB. gave pupils confidence in exploiting their potentialC. emphasized what was practical or possible for pupils.D. helped pupils overcome difficulties in learningKeys: 65-68 DAABIII.

White had two reasons for making this epic journey. First of all, he wanted to use the trip to raise money for charity, which he did. He raised ~70,000 for the British charity, Oxfam. White's second reason for making the trip was to break the world record and become the fastest person to cycle around the world. He is still waiting to find out if he has broken the record or not.White set off from Trafalgar Square, in London, on 19th June 2004 and was back 299 days later. He spent more than l,300 hours in the saddle（车座）and destroyed four sets of tyres and three bike chains. He had the adventure of his life crossing Europe, the Middle East, India, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and the Americas. Amazingly, he did all of this with absolutely no support team. No jeep carrying food, water and medicine. No doctor. Nothing! Just a bike and a very, very long road.The journey was lonely and desperate at times. He also had to fight his way across deserts, through jungles and over mountains. He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees, all to help people in need. There were other dangers along the road. In Iran, he waschased by armed robbers and was lucky to escape with his life and the little money he had. The worst thing that happened to him was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia. For 1,000 kilometres he battled against the wind that was constantly pushing him. This part of the trip was slow, hard work and depressing, but he made it in the end. Now Mr. White is back and intends to write a book about his adventures.65. When Phil White returned from his trip, he________.A. broke the world recordB. collected money for OxfamC. destroyed several bikesD. travelled about 1,300 hours66.

Reading ComprehensionSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of the population is whatscientists call “amusic.” People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes (音调). Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are very far apart on the musical scale.As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their inability to enjoy music set them apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can ap preciate music. The difference is complex, and it doesn’t involve defective hearing. Amusics can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can’t see cert ain colors.Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed (诊断). For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to ex plain. “When people invite me to a concert, I just say, ‘No thanks, I’m amusic,’” says Margaret. “I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”65. Which of the following is true of amusics?A. Listening to music is far from enjoyable for them.B. They love places where they are likely to hear music.C. They can easily tell two different songs apart.D. Their situation is well understood by musicians.66. According to paragraph 3, a person with “defective hearing”is probably one who __________.A. dislikes listening to speechesB. can hear anything nonmusicalC. has a hearing problemD. lacks a complex hearing system67. In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that __________.A. her problem with music had been diagnosed earlierB. she were seventeen years old rather than seventyC. her problem could be easily explainedD. she were able to meet other amusics68. What is the passage mainly concerned with?A. Amusics’ strange behaviours.B. Some people’s inability to enjoy music.C. Musical talent and brain structure.D. Identification and treatment of amusics.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Most people agree that honesty is a good thing. But does MotherNature agree? Animals can't talk, but can they lie in other ways? Can theylie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts may not call it lying,but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees, behavedishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps themsurvive.Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. When a predator（猎食动物）gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the "hurt" adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest.Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries its food so it always has something to eat. Scrubjays are also thieves. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else.Birds called cuckoos have found a way to have babies without doing much work. How? They don't make nests. Instead, they get into other birds' nests secretly. Then they lay their eggs and fly away. When the baby birds come out, their adoptive parents feed them.Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. But an animal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winner's hand and start fighting again.Chimps are sneaky in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps don't hear them, and they don't need to share their food.As children, many of us learn the saying "You can't fool Mother Nature." But maybe you can't trust her, either.66. A plover protects its young from a predator by______.A. getting closer to its youngB. driving away the adult predatorC. leaving its young in another nestD. pretending to be injured67. By "Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky" (paragraph 5), the author means______.A. chimps are ready to attack othersB. chimps are sometimes dishonestC. chimps are jealous of the winnersD. chimps can be selfish too68. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Some chimps lower their cry to keep food away from others.B. The losing chimp won the fight by taking the winner's hand.C. Cuckoos fool their adoptive parents by making no nests.D. Some clever scrub jays often steal their food back.69. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Do animals lie?B. Does Mother Nature fool animals?C. How do animals learn to lie?D. How does honesty help animals survive?Keys: 66-69 DBAAIII. Reading ComprehensionSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Look to many of history’s cultural symbols, and there you’ll find an ancestor of Frosty, the snowman in the movie Frozen. It appeared on some of the first postcards, starred in some of the earliest silent movies, and was the subject of a couple of the earliest photos, dating all the way back to the 1800s. I discovered even more about one of humanity’s earliest forms of life art during several years of research around the world.For example, snowmen were a phenomenon in the Middle Ages, built with great skill and thought. At a time of limited means of expression, snow was like free art supplies dropped from the sky. It was a popular activity for couples to leisurely walk through town to view the temporary works of chilly art. Some were created by famous artists, including a 19-year-old Michelangelo, who in 1494 was appointed by the ruler of Florence, Italy, to build a snowman in his mansion’s courtyard.The Miracle of 1511 took place during six freezing works called the Winter of Death. The city of Brussels was covered in snowmen—an impressive scene that told stories on every street corner. Some were political in nature, criticizing the church and government. Some were a reflection of people’s imagination. For the people of Brussels, this was a defining moment of defining freedom. At least until spring arrived, by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.If you fear the heyday of the snowman has passed, don’t worry: I’ve learned that some explosive snowman history is still being made today. Every year since 1818, the people of Zurich, Switzerland, celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman. On the third Monday of April, the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when a cotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffedwith explosive and paraded through town by bakers and other tradesmen who throw bread to the crowds. The parade ends with the Boogg being placed on a 40-foot pile of firewood. After the bells of the Church of St. Peter have rung six times, representing the passing of winter, the pile is lit. When the snowman explodes, winter is considered officially over—the quicker it is burnt down, the longer summer is said to be.66. According to the passage, why did snowmen become a phenomenon in the Middle Ages?A. People thought of snow as holy art supplies.B. People longed to see masterpieces of snow.C. Building snowmen was a way for people to express themselves.D. Building snowmen helped people develop their skill and thought.67.“The heyday of the snowman” (Paragraph 4) means the time when___________.A. snowmen were made mainly by artistsB. snowmen enjoyed great popularityC. snowmen were politically criticizedD. snowmen caused damaging floods68. In Zurich, the blowing up of the Boogg symbolizes__________________.A. the start of the paradeB. the coming of a longer summerC. the passing of the winterD. the success of tradesmen69. What can be concluded about snowmen from the passage?A. They were appreciated in historyB. They have lost their valueC. They were related to moviesD. They vary in shape and sizeKeys: 66-69 CBCAIII. Reading ComprehensionSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.“Is it good?” I asked her.“Yeah,” she answered. “There’s one I really like and you’ll like it, too.” I leaned forward.“‘Patty Poem,’” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:She never puts her toys away,Just leaves them scattered①where they lay,… ①散乱的The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:When she grows and gathers poise②, ②稳重I’ll miss her harum-scarum③ noise, ③莽撞的And look in vain④ for scattered toys. ④徒劳地And I’ll be sad.A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.“It’s you, honey,” My mother said sadly.To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible I burst out crying.“What’s wrong?” my mother asked.“Oh Mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay?”“Okay,” I was still weeping. My panic has gone. But I could not help thinking about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could plainly understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.。
