Enough修饰副词/形容词时，放在副词/形容词之后，故选A。
17.D.本题考查短语的辨析。
go out意思是“灭掉，熄灭”，go off意思是“离开，去世，消失”，go through意思是“经历，经受，仔细检查”，go over意思是“（(对……..进行)仔细检查”。
本题题干意思为“没有了空气，蜡烛就会熄灭。
”18.B.本题考查词义的辨析。
arouse是及物动词，意思是“唤醒，唤起，鼓励，引起”，例如：The odd sight aroused our curiosity.奇怪的景象激起我们的好奇。
rise是不及物动词，意思是“上升，升起”，arise不及物动词，意思是“出现，发生，起因于”，raise及物动词，意思是“提高，升起”。
本句含义为：“一个重要的问题就是如何激发学生学习英语的兴趣。
”，故选B。
19.C.本题考查动词短语的辨析。
give in意思是“投降，屈服，让步”，give out意思是“分发，发出(气味、热等)”，give off意思是“发出（蒸汽、光等），长出（枝、杈等）”，give away意思是“放弃，泄露”。
本句含义为：“在学习英语的过程中遇到困难时，我们决不会屈服。
”20.A.本题考查主谓一致。
当主语后面跟有as well as引起的短语时，谓语动词与前面的主语一致。
例如：He as well as I wants to go boating..出现这种情况是因为as well as后的成分是插入语，不影响谓语动词的数的变化，类似的词还有with，together with等。

Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1Questions 36—40 are based on the following passageTo understand how Americans think about things, it is necessary to understand “the point”. Americans mention it often: “Let’s get right to the point,” they will say. “My point is …”“What is the point of all this?”The “point” is the idea of the piece of information that Americans suppose is, or should be, at the center of people’ thinking, writings, and spoken comments. Speakers and writers are supposed to “make their points clear”, meaning that they are supposed to say or write clearly the idea of information they wish to express.People from many other cultures have different ideas about the point. Africans traditionally tell stories that express the thoughts they have in mind, rather than stating the point is. Thus, while an American might say to a friend , “I don’t think that coat goes very well with the rest of your outfit,” a Japanese might say , “Maybe this other coat would look eve n better than the one you have on .”Americans value a person who “gets right to the point.” Japanese are likely to consider such a person insensitive if not rude.The Chinese and Japanese languages are characterized by vagueness(模糊) and ambiguity(歧义).The precision and directness Americans associate with “the point” cannot be achieved ,and lest not with any grace, in Chinese and Japanese. Speakers of those languages thus have to learn a new way of reasoning and expressing their ideas if they are going to communicate satisfactorily with Americans.36. According to the passage, American expect speakers and writers to ______A. be clear about their man ideasB. give as much information as possibleC. express their personal viewsD. be honest about their true feelings37. Which of the following people will tell a story to express what they have in mind?A. AmericansB. AfricansC. JapaneseD. Chinese38. In the sentence “I don’t think that coat goes very well with the rest of your outfit”, the word “outfit” most probably means_____.A. officeB. timeC. speechD. clothes39. According to the passage, the Japanese may consider it unacceptable to be_____.A. indirectB. straightforwardC. poorly-dressedD. curious40. In order to communicate with Americans satisfactorily, speakers of Chinese need to____A. lean the language wellB. change their way of thinkingC. be careful about their choice of wordsD. explain their reasons clearlyPassage 2Questions 36—40 are based on the following passageMany young people tell me they want to be writers. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases these young people are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours lonely at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want write,”I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”The reality is that writing is lonely, private and poor-paying. for every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never realized. When I left a 20-year career in the U. S. Army to become a freelance writer (自由撰稿者), I had expectation at all. What I did have was a friend who found 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 typewriter and felt like a true writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten any breakthrough and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell 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 gave up halfway. I would keep putting my dream to the test---even though it meant living with uncertaintyand fear of failure. This is the shadow-land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.41. The passage means to ______A. warn young people of the hardships that a writer has to experienceB. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writerC. show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fameD. encourage young people to pursue a writing career42. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.B.A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on effort.C. Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolationD. The chance for a writer to become successful are small.43. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A. He wasn’t able to produce a single book.B. He wasn’t able to have a rest fo r a whole year.C. He found his dream would never come true.D. He hadn’t seen a change for the better.44. When the author began writing, he only had_____.A. a second-hand typewriter.B. a friend who helped him find a room to liveC. a cold room without a bathroomD. empty expectations of his future45. “shadow-land” in the last sentence refers to_____.A. the piece of land one often dreams aboutB. the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reachedC. the bright future that one is looking forward toD. a world that exists only in one’s imaginationPassage 3Questions 36—40 are based on the following passageMy friend Mike was shaking his head in disbelief. “That young woman who just waited onme ,”he said ,pointing to an employee of the fas t food restaurant where we eating , “had to call someone over to help her count out the change .the cash register(出纳机) showed her I need 99 nets ,but she couldn’t figure out how to count out the coins .”I understood Mike’s concern .What we have done in thi s country ,although unintentionally ,is to create several generations of individuals most of most of whom have no idea how to reason, how to do simple math ,how to do research ,or finally how to be creative .The reason for this is our overuse of information technology :video games, television, digital watches, calculators, and computer. information technology feeds us information without requiring us to think about it and let us perform operations without understanding them.It is time for us to take a hand look at an educational system that only teaches our children how to push buttons. Our kids can’t tell time if the clock has hands .they can use calculators but cannot add, subtract, divide or multiply. Video games have taken the place of active imaginative play .Although most of them are technically literate ,they choose not to read .They are so used to television and movies that they cannot use their imagination to stay interested in a book .It is not enough to recognize the problem. What we need is solution .the one I offer is simple to suggest , but may be impossible to carry out. We must unplug our children .If wedon’t, they will never learn how to solve problems. They will never learn basic reasoning skills and will certainly not develop creativity .Instead of filling classrooms with electronics, let’s to perform computer operations, but to figure and to figure and reason for themselves. They must see how things work and how process leads to results, they must also stretch their imagination.46. What seems to be the problem of the employee of the fast food restaurant?A. She does not know how to count coins.B. She is unable to solve simple math problem.C. She has no small change for the customers.D. She does not know how to operate cash registers47. What is the author’s and his friend Mike’s concern?A. The educational system is now creating people who can’t think for themselves.B. People now rarely do things on their own.C. Computers feed us too much information nowadays.D. The restaurant does not provide good service.48. For children to have imaginative minds, they must_____.A. be born with talentsB. be taught to read the right booksC .be dragged away from machinesD. have a large vocabulary49. What is the most probable meaning of “unplug o ur children” in the last paragraph?A. Give them freedom of enjoying themselves.B. Teach themC. Get them off TV and computer games.D. Turn off all the power in the schools.50. The conclusion of the article is that the authorbelieves_____A. electronics should have no place in classroomsB. information technology helps us to do things we do not understandC. all books benefit children more than anything elseD. information technology is new being overusedPassage4Questions 36—40 are based on the following passageAll of us communicate with one another nonverbally(不使用语言地)，as well as with words. Most of the time we’re not aware that we are doing it. We gesture with elbows or a hand, meet someone else’s eyes and look away, change positions in a c hair. These actions we assume are occasional. However in recent years researchers have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent and understandable as language.One important kind of body language is eye behavior. Americans are careful about how and when they meet one another’s eyes. In our normal conversation, each eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both of us look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other’s eyes, they become more intimate. Therefore, we carefully avoid this, except in suitable situations.Researchers who are engaged in the study of communication through body movement are not prepared to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an American rubs his nose, it may mean he is disagreeing with someone or refusing something. But there are other possible interpretations(解释)，too. Anther example: when a student in conversation with a professor holds the older man’s eyes a little longer than is usual, it can be sign of respect; it can be a challenge to the professor’s authority; itcan be something else entirely. The researches look for patterns in the situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture.Communications between human beings would be just dull if it were all done with words.51. The main idea of this article is that________A. study of communication through body movement is a new scienceB. body movements are as important as words in communicationC. all of us communicate with one anotherD. eye behavior is the most important part in body language52. What do researchers think of body language?A. Body language can be understood and used by people in communication.B. Body language is more important than spoken language in communication.C. Body language has been discovered in recent years.D. Body language is the study of communication via body movement.53. The word“intimate” in paragraph two probably means______.A. greatB. closeC. goodD. important54. According to the passage, you make an American person feel uncomfortable if you_____.A. meet his eyesB. avoid meeting his eyesC. stare into his eyes for one secondD. look into his eyes for a long time55. The sentence “the researchers look for patterns in the situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture” means______.A. the researchers explain the meaning of a gesture according to the situation in which it is usedB. the researchers believe that one gesture has only one meaningC. the researchers think that one gesture cannot be used in different situationsD. the researchers look for patterns in textbooks to explain the meaning of a gestureV. Cloze (15 point)Directions: There are 15 blanks in the follow passage. For each there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. You are required to choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Who won the World Cup 1994 football game? What happened at the United Nations?

Each passage isfollowed by some questions or unfinished statements. For eachof them there arefour choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line throughthe centre.Passage OneThere is so muchmore meaning to a message than what exists in the spoken or written words. Forexample, if a person says, “you know, Barbara, I really like you,” it hasdifferent meanings depending on whether it is said by a man or a woman, in anoffice or a bar context, the tone of voice, the stress put on certain words, aswell as the eye contact, physical distance, and the relationship between thesparker and the listener are all factors which give meaning to what’s beingsaid. Sometimes, these factors can generate much more meaning than the wordsthemselves. If a friend say to me, “Gee, I can’t wait to see the result of theupcoming election.” my interpretation of that message will be based upon myknowledge of my friend’s political views, the situation with the currentcampaign, and my ability to understand the meaning behind the tone of voice.Our ability tounderstand such cue is developed without us being aware of it through ourprocess of socialization. Our interpretation of these cues just comesnaturally. Every culture has its own set of culture cues that each member ofthat culture understands. It’s common how a person from culture A and a personfrom culture B interpret the very same words in totally different ways. Hereare some examples:When “Sarcasm”Means“Sincerity”Marsha thought things were going well with her new French friends,particularly Bertrand. He often invited her to interesting and fun events, buthe was often making fun of her. One day at an art exhibition, while looking ata particularly abstract piece,Marsha said that she couldn’t understand whatthe artist was trying to express. Bertrand smiled and responded,” Yes, I’mafraid French art is far too advanced for Americans to understand.” Marsha wasupset; she really liked him and coul dn’t figure out what caused him tofrequently make fun of her. So, she asked her host mother about it. “My dear,”the host mother told her, “ This means that he really likes you. In France,when someone feels comfortable enough to make fun of you, that means that you havebeen welcomed as a very close friend.”When “Now” Doesn’tMean “Now”’Joshua, an American student in Heredia, Costa Rican invited his partnerto meet for coffee. When he asked what time they should meet, the response was“Nos encontramos ahora en elparquet”. “Ahora” literally means now. So, hegrabbed his jacket and headed straight to the park where they agreed to meet.Half an hour later, his friend arrived without the least sign of regret forbeing late. After discussing the matter with his Spanish teacher, Joshualearned that in Costa Rica, “Ahora” meanssometime within the hour. And, if people decide to meet some place like park,it is no problem for one or the other to wait for a while because they willspend some nice time in the park, probably running into some other friends, ormeeting someone friendly.When “Yes”Doesn’t Mean“Yes”Many business people might have experiencedthis frustrating situation in Japan. Sarah, a young businesswoman from NewYork, was sent to Japan to close a big deal for her company. While giving herpresentation, she became more and more certain of sale because her Japanesebusiness partnerscontinually nodded their heads as she spoke. When shefinished she thought the deal was made and asked when they would like to signthe agreement. She was shocked when she was told that they were not yet sure ifthey wanted to make the deal or not. What Sarah did not know is that in Japan,nodding head does not necessarily mean “yes” as it does in the US. It can alsomean “yes, I am listening and understanding what you are saying.”Passage TwoThe automobile hasgiven people incredible freedom of movement. It enables them to decide wherethey want to go andwhen. The automobile influences where people live and workand how they spend their leisure time. The striking changes in people’s livescreated by the automobile began in the United States and have since spreadacross much of the globe, especially in developed countries. But even indeveloping nations, the automobile is increasingly reshaping patterns ofliving.When the firstautomobiles were produced, only the well-to-docould afford them. Soon, however, prices declined as production increased inresponse to the growing demand. The lower prices put the automobile withinreach of more and more Americans. Well-off urban residents found car ownershipcheaper than keeping a horse and carriage. The growth in car ownership led tothe building of more and better roads, which further increased travelthroughout the nation. Before the development of automobiles, urban workerswalked, bicycled, or rode horse-drawn vehicles to their jobs. But as roadsimproved and car ownership expanded, workers no longer had to live near theirjobs.During the 1920s, peoplein U.S. cities increasingly moved to the suburbs because of the freedomprovided to the workers by automobile ownership. By the mid-1950s, even factories hadbegun to relocate in the suburbs. Wherever people have easy access toautomobiles, cars play a major role in social life and the choice ofrecreational activities. People find it fun to hop in the car and visit friendsand relatives, whether the drive takes a few minutes, hours, or days. Trips byautomobile help make it easy to organize picnics, family reunions, and otherget-togethers. Trips by automobile to such places as theme parks, nationalparks, and mountain and seashore resorts are a favorite type of vacation formany people.Passage ThreeTo become asuccess in high-tech Silicon Valley, Alan Aerts used low-tech skills and hardwork. He carried boxes of produce for a grocery store and sold bread torestaurants while launching a vending machine business that sells soft drinksand snack foods to workaholic computer engineers.In 1980, on hisroute as a bread salesman for a bakery, Aerts ran into the owner of a Pac Mangame control panel who was servicing his equipment at a restaurant in Oakland,California. Aerts, who always wore a shirt and tie on sales calls, wasimpressed by the other fellow’s jeans and T shirt and resolved to branch out onhis own.But capitalism requires capital, and Aertshad little money to spare. Living paycheck to paycheck with his wife andnewborn son, he worked days at the bakery and nights at a grocery store to paythe mortgage. During downtime between jobs, he developed his business strategy.“I’m sure I did every wrong thing you can possibly do,” says Aerts. “But I knewthat with enough hard work, it would all make sense.”To get hisbusiness off the ground, he relied on a second mortgage and credit cards,sometimes paying rates as high as 19%, to buy video game and vending machines.After purchasing several machines at retail price, he realized he could buythem directly from the manufacturers for less. And he learned that vendingmachines were more profitable than video games, which needed to be replacedfrequently to keep up with the fickletastes of gamers. Aerts used the contacts he made through his bakery job toprospect for new business. To hedge his bets, he put in ten years at thegrocery store to earn a modest pension.Today, Aerts’scompany, Custom Vendi ng Systems, is the largest privately owned vendor in theregion. He says business is booming as the Valley’s economy blossoms after its2000 bust. In 2005, Aerts and his wife donated $ 2.5 million to fundscholarships at the local community college. He’s stil l busy around theclock, but now he dedicates evenings and weekends to charity work and localpolitics instead of a second job.Section BDirections: Matchthe Chinese sentences with their EnglishEquivalents.Part 1Part 2。

There are 3 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task1Telephone, television, radio and telegraph all help people communicate with each other. Because of these devices, ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster such as an earthquake or flood can bring help from distant countries. Within hours, help is on the way. Because of modern technology like the satellites that travel around the world, information travel fast.How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller. Of course this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. Of course this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the oceans. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach Americas. This time difference influenced people’s actions. For example, one battle, in the war of 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided. A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England. But the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty had been signed. They would not have died if news had come in time. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now.36. News spreads fast because of ____.A. new technologyB. a peace agreementC. the changes of the worldD. modern transportation37. According to this passage, _____ is very important to people in a disaster area.A. latest newsB. fast communicationC. new ideasD. modern technology.38. Which of the following statements is TRUE? _____A. The world is changing in size.B. The distance between England and America has changed since the War of 1812.C. The world now seems smaller because of faster communication.D. The world is actually smaller today.39. Two hundred years ago, news between the continents was carried _____.A. by airB. by seaC. by landD. by telephone and telegraph40. The New Orleans Battle could have been avoided if the peace agreement had been signed ____.A. in AmericaB. in EnglandC. by both sidesD. in timeTask 2When prices are low people will buy more, and when prices are high they will buy less. Every shopkeeper knows this. But at the same time, producers want higher price for their goods when they make more goods. How can we find the best price for the goods? The Law of Supply and Demand is the economist’s answer to this question.According to this law, changes in the prices of goods cause change in supply and demand. An increase in the price of the goods causes an increase in supply –then number of goods the producers make. Producers will make more goods when they can get higher prices for the goods. The producer makes more shoes as the price of shoes goes up. At the same time, an increase in the price of the goods causes a decrease in demand-the number of goods the consumers buy. This is because people buy less when the price is high. People buy fewer shoes as the price of shoes goes up. Conversely, a decrease in the price causes an increase in demand ( people buy more shoes) and a decrease in supply ( producers make fewer shoes).Business firms look at both supply and demand when they make decisions about price and production. They look for the equilibrium point where supply equals demand. At this point, the number of shoes produced is 3000 and the price of the shoes is $30. $30 is the equilibrium price: at this price the consumers will buy all of the 3000 shoes which the producers make. If the producers increase the price of the shoes, of if they produce more than 3000 shoes, the consumers will not buy all of the shoes. The producers will have a surplus –more supply than demand- so they must decrease the price in order to sell all of the shoes. On the other hand, if they make fewer than 3000 shoes, they will be a shoes shortage – more demand than supply- and the price will go up.According to the Law of Supply and Demand, the equilibrium price is the best price for the good. The consumers and the producers will agree on this price because it is the only price that helps them both equally.41. Why does an increase in price cause an increase in supply? ____A. Consumers buy more goods when prices are high.B. Producers make more goods when prices are high.C. Producers want to sell all of their goods.D. Consumers will not buy all of the goods.42. Why does a decrease in prices cause an increase in demand?A. Consumers buy fewer goods when prices are low.B. Producers make fewer goods when prices are low.C. Producers make more goods when prices are high.D. Consumers buy more goods when prices are low.43. What do business firms look at when they make decisions about prices and production?A. The supply curve.B. The demand curveC. The equilibrium pointD. All of the above.44. Why will consumers and producers agree on the equilibrium price?_____A. It will help them both equally.B. It is the only price for the goods.C. It is the lowest price.D. All of the goods will be sold.45. When will producers have a surplus of goods?A. when supply equals demands.B. When there is more supply than demand.C. When there is more demand than supply.D. When they sell all of their goods.Task 3Money is used for buying or selling goods, for measuring value and for storing wealth. Almost every society now has a money economy based on coins and bills of one kind or another. However, this has not always been true. In primitive societies a system of barter was used.Barter was a system of direct of exchange of goods. Somebody could exchange a sheep, for example, for anything in the market place that he or she considered to be of equal value. Barter, however, was a very unsatisfactory system because people’s precise needs were seldom met. People needed a more practical system of exchange, and various money systems developed based on goods that the members of society recognized ad having value. Cattle, grain, teeth, shells, feathers, salt, elephant tusks, and tobacco had all been used. Precious metals gradually took over because, when made into coins, they were portable, durable, recognizable, and divisible into larger and smaller units of value.A coin is a piece of metal, usually disc-shaped, which bears words, designs or numbers showing its value. Until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, coins were given monetary worth based on the exact amount of metal contained in them, but most modern coins are based on face value-the value that the government choose to give them, which doesn’t show the actual metal content. Coins have been made of gold, silver, copper, aluminum(铝), nickel (镍), lead, zinc(锌), plastic and in China even from tea leaves. Most governments now issue paper money in the form of bills, which are really ―promise to pay‖. Paper money is obviously easier to handle and much more convenient in the modern world. Checks and credit cards are being used increasingly, and it is possible to imagine a world where ―money ―in the form of coins and paper currency will no longer be sued. Even today, in the United States, many places, especially in filling stations will not accept cash at night for security reason.46.
