Correct: ________SECTION II: Reading ComprehensionReading Task 1You are going to read a page from a brochure with advertisements for four unusual leisure experiences. For questions 1-7, choose from the advertisements (A-D). The advertisements may be chosen more than once or not chosen at all.Do Something DifferentA - Indoor SkydivingIf you have always wanted to try skydiving, but are afraid of flying, here is the answer - indoor skydiving. You will feel like you are freefalling from a plane, even though you are only about two feet off the ground, as a giant propeller blasts air at 200 mph, suspending you in the airflow. It is a freefall experience that everyone must try, at the world's biggest skydiving wind tunnel, in Bedfordshire, England. Compared to other similar experiences on the market, you will get more 'flight time' in the wind tunnel and, when you finish, a DVD containing footage of your flight for you to remember the experience. This facility also caters to international skydiving teams, so be assured that you'll be in the safest hands. The tunnel was originally built over fifty years ago to study aerodynamic forces, and later to test the strength of aeroplane parts such as ejector seats. Four decades later, the tunnel was restored. A reasonable level of fitness is required in order to participate. Spectators can watch the dive from the free viewing gallery, but the loud noise makes it unsuitable for very young children.B - The Cathedrals Express Steam TrainStep back into the 19th century as you take a train ride on the Cathedrals Express, which runs from central London to some of England's most beautiful cathedral cities. It's the perfect experience for romantic couples, Harry Potter fans and those whowant to relive the good old days. As you travel, you will dine on superb food while sitting at a table with lovely views of the countryside. The train is an exact replica of one that operated during Victorian times, and the carriage interiors are beautifully decorated. It is an unusual sight, so expect people to wave at you as you go by. Of course, you may wish to wave back! When the train pulls into the terminus, you are released from the fantasy for a short spell, as you have the chance to shop or see the sights. Trains and stations have ramps for wheelchair users. Spectators are welcome to see the train depart and meet it on its return.C - Traditional Circus SkillsDo you want to learn some new skills? Are you fed up with the usual routine and want to do something a little more exciting than walking around the shopping centre on Saturday mornings?Then roll up, roll up -come and join the circus! During your session at Britain's top circus skills school, you will learn about the physical strength required for the trapeze and acrobatics, practise your coordination skills while juggling and attempt to acrobalance (otherwise known as tightrope walking). All the instructors are professionals with first-hand knowledge of the techniques and equipment used. You'll be learning the basics in no time, so you can impress all your friends with your new skills when you get home. It is recommended that you wear casual clothes that don't restrict your movement - a tracksuit and trainers would be ideal. Participants must be at least 14 years old, and although they don't need to be in absolutely tip-top shape, a reasonable level of fitness is required if you want to get the most from this course. Spectators are welcome throughout. Unfortunately, there is no disabled access at the school.D - Scuba DivingAre you having trouble finding things to do with the kids? Here's an idea. At the Aqua Fun Programme, young adventurers are introduced to the thrill of breathing under water. They are first taught the basic procedures for scuba diving, including safety and communication with fellow divers, and familiarised with the equipment before dipping their toes into the water. All the instructors are qualified Diving Instructors. Then, under constant supervision, they get to dive and swim around in a swimming pool, at a maximum depth of only 6m, but still, experience what it would feel like to be in a natural diving environment. Parents are welcome to watch as their children learn to scuba dive and enjoy splashing around making bubbles underwater. Children don't have to be strong swimmers and previous experience is not needed. You must bring your own swimwear, but all other equipment will be provided.Which of the advertisements mention(s):1. something participants in the experience must bring with them? A - B - C - D2. giving you something to take home with you? A - B - C - D3. giving you the chance to take a break from normal life? A - B - C - D4. what participants will learn before the start of the activity? A - B - C - D5. regret that a specific type of visitor cannot enter the place? A - B - C - D6. that the place has been used for more than one purpose? A - B - C - D7. something which makes it possible for the disabled to participate? A - B - C - DA - Indoor Skydiving,B - The Cathedrals Express Steam Train,C - Traditional Circus Skill,D - Scuba DivingReading Task 2You are going to read a newspaper article about a politician who made a film about climate change. Seven sentences have been removed from the article. Choose from the sentences A-H the one which fits each gap (1-7). There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use.The Accidental Movie StarFormer Vice President of the U.S.A. Al Gore has made a film he hopes will help to change the way we view climate change. Al Gore has been concerned with climate change, or 'climate crisis' as he calls it, for the majority of his political career. As the years passed and he became more passionate about this issue, he started travelling the world in order to educate peopleabout the effects of global warming using computer slideshows. Free of charge, he explained to his audiences that the world is facing a 'planetary emergency' and that it isn't too late to stop it if appropriate action is taken now.It was during this time of touring and giving lectures that Gore was spotted by Hollywood producer Laurie David, who asked him to turn his slideshow into a documentary which he would play the starring role. {1 ________} E ventually, though, David managed to persuade him. The result was a fascinating documentary combining references to Gore's own life story with horrifying predictions about the future of our planet.Little did Gore know that just one year later he would be walking along the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival and later collecting an Oscar for 'Best Documentary'. {2 _______ } A dvertised as 'the scariest movie you'll ever see,' it concentrates on the potentially terrifying consequences of climate change.'An Inconvenient Truth' certainly gives us much to consider. For example, is there a link between the frequency of strong hurricanes and global warming? Why was 2005 the hottest year ever recorded? Could whole cities such as San Francisco one day be submerged in water due to rising sea levels? {3_______ }As the title of the film suggests, however, it may be inconvenient for us to have to think about the future of the planet, but think we must.Published at the same time as the release of the film, Gore's book of the same title contains additional information and scientific analysis to further support his claims. {4 _______}Gore is delighted that some schools are even using the DVD to help them teach awareness of environmental issues to their students.As pessimistic as the film may seem, it ends on a positive note. {5______}If Gore was going to present a problem, he wanted to offer a potential solution, too. His main hope is that people accept the reality of the crisis and then turn that knowledge into action.Gore leads by example. {6________ } H e realises, however, that most people need a little more help when it comes to changing their habits. For this reason, he has also been working hard to encourage large shops to sell more environmentally friendly products.So can this one man's efforts really make a difference? {7 ________ }It may not seem as if the decisions of individuals can achieve very much, but put them all together and they may add up to something that will, literally, change the world.A. The movie owes its success to its ability to hold our attention.B. He insists on using biodiesel vehicles and has decided to become carbon neutral, which means that he reduces the amount of carbon dioxide he produces every day.C. Well, according to Gore, if we are clear about what the problem is, then we are more likely to introduce changes into our daily lives, such as choosing the 'greenest' light bulbs or cars.D. Whilst both the film and the book have largely been well received by critics, they have been criticised by some as being'exaggerated' and 'over-the-top'.E. The aim of the film certainly seems to be to 'shock' people into action, which may or may not be the best way to tackle the issue of global warming.F. The profits from both the film and the book are now funding other campaigns to spread the message about global warming.G. As Gore himself says, "It's not too late to solve this crisis, and solving it means avoiding the worst of the consequences and reversing this trend towards catastrophe."H. At first, Gore was reluctant, as he has always been a very private person, despite being used to being in the public eye.

Unit1 ------Name1.what Is the meaning of your name?Once I was asked such a serious question----what is the meaning of your name, and I got dumbfounded then. In fact, even my parents can not explain the meaning of my name exactly. My mother told me that s he didn’t want to give me a name which is used by a number of people. So, she named me WEI. Maybe I can explain the meaning of my name like this: my parents expected me to be a person who is different from the rest, a special and outstanding person.Well, most of my friends often call me WEIWEI or Xiaoweiwei. It’s probably because they feel ,XW sounds like a boy’s name. But, wei wei or xiaoweiwei sounds sweet, they think.2.Change name or not?I do like my name very much because it contains expectation of my parents. So, If you ask me that would you want to change your name for your carrier? I would say not, no. In spite of it sounds not very attractive or impressed.3.difference between Chinese and English nameWhen it comes to talking about the difference between Chinese and English names, you know, there are two slightly different aspects. In England, the last name is the family name. The first and the middle name is tile given name. But in china, our family name is in front of given name. Another difference between English and Chinese names is that in China, the younger people's names shouldn't be the same as their parents or grandparents. This shows that we respect the old people. In contrast, English parents may choose a name because it passed from generation to generation. For example, first born son might be named after his father or grandfather. What do you think about it?4. The principals of giving a name to a baby.When it comes to talking about the principals of giving a name to a baby, I suppose, there are two main principals should be obeyed. The most important principal is that we should give our baby a meaningful name. For example, m y mother told me that she didn’t want to give me a name which is used by a number of people. So, she named me WEI. Maybe I can explain the meaning of my name like this: my parents expected me to be a person who is different from the rest, a special and outstanding person. Another thing is that we shouldn’t give our baby a name which is easily nicknamed by others. It maybe destroys children’s self-esteem and extinguishes their confidence.Unit2----English, a global language1. Do you believe English is a global language?Well, I do believe English is a global language. Because English, in fact, is the dominate language of business, travel and science. When people from different country want to exchange their ideas, they often use English to understand each other better.For example, recently, an online voting is holding by a famous website which is concerned about “do you believe English is the dominate language in the world” is going on. It seemsfrom the result of the vote, more people agree with statement. It is true that we speak English in many situations. Such as: in airport, international conference or traveling. If you can not read or speak English, maybe, you will miss a lot of charming things. This is my idea about this question.I take your point, but my views on this matter remain the same. You know, I have a opposite views on this. First, Even most of people see English as a global language; I do believe that English is only a tool or skill to communicate with other people. It is not a global language but a global tool. Just like the ability of operating a computer. Second, Many people in the world speak Chinese, French, Spanish or other language as their first language. We can use English to understand each other better, and ensure ourselves a bright future. But, we can not regard it as a global language.2. Can you tell me the reason that English could be the global language?Well, the most important reason, I think, is that English-speaking countries dominate the world economic. Such as: the United States and the United Kingdom. What I want to say is that, the economic base determines overtop structures. Another thing is that, English is the official language of more than 75 countries. English is the official language of the country, like England, New Zealand, or English maybe used along with other official languages, just like Singapore and India. At last, in order to find a good job, there is about one billion people study English. To some extent, English may sealed our fate.3. As a global language, how many characters does English contain?Well, when it comes to talking about the characters of English, I suppose English is widely used in the world. In many situations, we use English to exchange our ideas to understand each other better. Such as: in an international conference. When people from the different country want to communicate with each other, they often use English. Another thing is that, comparing with other languages, English is easier to learn. For example, a famous education institute has made an investigation of the time of learning a foreign language. The result shows that mastering English requires 1100 hours, but mastering Chinese requires 2200 hours. So, numbers of people consider English as the common language. At last, English is the official language of more than 75 countries. English is the official language of the country, like England, New Zealand, or English maybe used along with other official languages, just like Singapore and India.4. Why do you learn English?When it comes to talking about the reason of learning English, I suppose English is widely used in the world. In many situations, we use English to exchange our ideas to understand each other better. Such as: in an international conference. When people from the different country want to communicate with each other, they often use English. Another thing is that, in order to find a good job, I need to bone up my English. What I want to say is that speaking English fluently means more opportunities to me. So whatever I do in the future,English will always be very important in the twenty first century. To some extent, English may sealed my fate.Unit3----phobias1.plan to solve the phobia:Well, when it comes to talking about the plan of solving the phobia, I suppose, for a psychologist; we can suggest him or her to behave differently when patient feels afraid. In addition we should start by trying to teach the patient reveal the deeper problem, and it will be easier to treat the phobia if the deeper problem is identified and worked on as well. For a patient who has a phobia, he or she should have the courage and faith to get over it. They should learn to stand up to the things which give him or her extreme fear Moreover, the patient could start to eat some food which has an effect on solving the phobia. Such as: banana, fish oil and spinach. All in all, the treatment of a phobia required the efforts of psychologist and patient.2.do you have a phobia, why?Well, when it comes to talking about the topic of “do you have a phobia?” I would like to say yes. Yes, I have a phobia of cars. But, it is not serious. Every time I cross the street, I feel admittedly afraid. The reason why I have a fear of cars is that once I had seen a car accident by my own eyes from the beginning to end. Maybe, my fear of cars is learned. What I want to say is that my phobia is learned by watching the reaction of others.3.the characters of phobiaA phobia is not a normal fear; it is an extreme fear, a very strong fear. Psychologist has come up with three characteristics of a phobia. First, a phobia often lasts for a long time, for months or even years. Second, a phobia is not a rational response; it is very strong reaction, too strong for the situation. Third, the reaction is too strong for a person to control.Unit4-----TV 小孩适合看电视吗？1. 电视带给我们的积极影响和消极影响积极的：well, when it comes to talking about the influence of TV, I suppose TV programs include images and sounds creating a moving scene, showing me a wonderful world and helping me to understand the world deeply. Second, without TV programs, I can not keeping breast of the latest development. As a post graduate student I must keep up with the times. And television is the main channel to know the world, to know how to adapt to the world.消极的：and the negative influence of TV could not be ignored. We will receive a lot of negative things passively. Such as: violence and darkness. And it will arising a terrible effect on society. You know, the spread of juvenile delinquency, to some extent, is due to the negative influence of television. Another thing is that, watching TV wastes much time. Many people infatuated with watching TV and couldn’t focus on their work or study.2. 什么是电视文化，为什么说我们在电视文化中TV has a huge influence on our attitude on what we like to eat on what we like to wear on what we like to talk about.3. 电视会被取代吗？赞成：when it comes to talking about the topic about “do you believe TV will be replaced by internet?”, I suppose that TV program we watch everyday could be found on the internet. What I want to say is that we can found it whenever we want to watch. Another thing is that we can use internet to deal with many things which TV couldn’t. So, I do believe television will be replaced in the future.反对：when it comes to talking about the topic about “do you believe TV will be replaced by internet?”, I suppose that TV will not be replaced in the future. Regarding the reason why I think so, well, the first thing I’d like to say is that sitting together to watch TV is a good way to communicate with our family in the free time. Once we leave the television, our daily life will change a lot. So, I do believe television is a basic necessity of our life which couldn’t be replaced by anything.4. 肥皂剧为什么受欢迎？Many soap deal with the universal themes that people all over the world understand, these are topics---for example, family, love, personal struggle, marriage problems and so on.5你喜欢看肥皂剧吗？为什么？When it comes to talking about the topic of “do u like watching soap?”, I have to say I don’t like watching soaps. Regarding the reason why I don’t like it, well, first I’d like to say is that watching soaps means a waste of time. Most of the soap are very boring and couldn’t learn anything from it.6.你喜欢看电视吗？为什么?你喜欢看什么节目？As for me, I can not survive without television. I do enjoy watching TV programs very much. Many friends of mine often call me as a media addict. The reasons for why I have a crush on TV program are many. First, TV programs include images and sounds creating a moving scene, showing me a wonderful world and helping me to understand the world deeply. Second, without TV programs, I can not keeping breast of the latest development. As a post graduate student I must keep up with the times. And television is the main channel to know the world, to know how to adapt to the world.Well, recently, I have been watching an interesting TV program called closing to science. This program is about some strange natural phenomenon which is happening around us. Such as: does UFO really exist? Or puzzle of savages. Sounds very attractive, right? I am a big fan of this program.Unit5----learning differently1．Learning habitUnit6----immigration1．如果有机会你会移民吗？为什么？Well, immigration is the kind of phenomenon which is deserved our attention these years. When it comes to talking about whether I want to immigrate to another country, I suppose it would be a challenge choice to immigrate to another country. But if I got a chance, I feel, I would like to try to live or work in another country for a period of time. Such as: France, Italy or Spain.The reason why I want to move to the countries above is that all of them are romantic nations. What I mean is, there are many attractive scenery waiting for you to enjoying and many moving stories are waiting for you to listen to. Another thing is that experiencing a life which is totally different from normal one is my long-cherished wish.2．为什么那么多人移民美国？Immigration means people to move from one country to another, and live there indefinitely. It is permanent move, the people will become citizens of that country. Some people immigrate just because they don’t like their countries, but most people immigrate to improve their economic or social situation.As you know, there are many opportunities and jobs in US, and the US also needed factory workers, and now, the US has the most powerful market and the highest level of science and better education system. It can provide for people more opportunities to develop themselves and broaden their eyes, they believe that they can realize their dreams in the US.Unit7----who calls the shots? 组织旅游1.怎样和下级相处？怎样做个领导？Well, how to get well with our managers or colleagues is the kind of problem which is deserved our attention. When it comes to talking about the skills of dealing with people, I suppose it is a complicated question. But, according to my experience, in fact, it’s very simple.What I want to say is, if you can treat everyone sincerely, everything will be much better then you think. When problems come up in your work, you know, complaining or shouting means noting. Another thing is that a manager’s job isn’t to tell people what to do, but to help solve problems and help people to work well together. A good manager should know the employee’s particular skills and make them feel they valued. So, the employees can do their best and help each other.2.如何与下级交流Well, I will give the employees an opportunity to say what problems they are having and ask questions. They can write down the questions and idea to make it easy to share the ideas. The questions are focus on the work itself and would be easy for the employees to answer honestly.3,为什么说经理要你做什么就做什么已经过时了Because employees don’t do their best work when they are only told what they should do with out flexibility and freedom; managers couldn’t ignore communicating with the employees and have to value them.5. 什么是团队，如何进行团队合作？Generally, the team-building can refer to the theory and practice of organizational development. The aim of team-building is to make everyone do their best and unite the whole team so that the team can maximum the benefit. The example of team-building you can follow is like this: first, you hold a meeting to communicate with your employees and know where is the problem. Then, you can tell them you consider their ideas important and value them very much. What’s more, you should told them what you have learned from their suggestion and what’s your plan in the next work. At last, you should make a change and act as you said.6. how to plan a tripFirst, I will call the employees to a meeting asking everyone for comments about “who wants to join in this trip？”,”where they want to go?” a nd “what kind of the entertainment they like?” At the end of meeting, determine time, place, and the number of people. Second, making a budget is required. Then, get in contact with the travel agency to arrange the accommodation, admission, transportation and so on.Third, during the trip, manager and the employees will understand each other better by playing some interesting games.Unit8---right or wrong on the net如果你没时间写论文你会在网上抄么？When it comes to the topic about the network morals, I suppose that it is a complicated question. If you asked me that will you download a paper from internet when you have no time to write it by yourself? I would say definitely not. The reason why I insist on writing paper by myself in any case is that copying existing writings from the internet is the action which is contrary the computer ethics. Another thing is that even if using other people’s online resource without telling them or paying for them is also wrong.1. we shouldn’t use a computer to harm people2. we shouldn’t use a computer to interfere with other people’s computer.3. we shouldn’t snoop other people’s files. We must respect other people’s privacy.4. we shouldn’t use a computer to steal5. we shouldn’t use computers to say things which is untrue6. we shouldn’t use software which you have not paid for.7. we shouldn’t use other people’s resource without telling them or paying for them.8. we shouldn’t appropriate someone’ else’s ideas9. we should think about the social consequences of the program you are writing10. we should always use computers in a way that respect for of others.Unit1---of study1. learning habitWhen it comes to talking about the topic of learning habits, I suppose that it is great important for everyone to have a good learning habit. The most important thing, I feel, isstriking balance between your work and your rest. What I mean is that we should avoid study very late at night or leave ourselves little resting time. Another thing is that plans are always essential, so we must make some elaborate and workable plans before we study. If you work out a study plan, then you should put it into practice. Well, keeping a good learning habit is the vital step to study efficiently. So, what about your opinion?2. reading habit/principalsWhen it comes to talking about the topic of reading habit, I suppose that it is great important for everyone to have a good reading habit. The most important thing, I feel, is that keeping on making note when you are reading. What I mean is that making note could help us to deepen the impression of the book. Another thing is that we have to enlarge the range of reading. Y ou can not only read the books which you are interested in, but also some books which can improve your specialization. Well, this is an interesting topic. So, what is your opinion?3. 你平时都读什么书When it comes to talking about the favorite books, I suppose this is an interesting topic. Well, as you know, I often read some books about marketing or advertising because there are too much papers are waiting for me to write, so that I have no time to read books which I interested in. but, if I were free now, I might read some Chinese classical novels. Such as: Dream of red mansions. This is my favorite book. If you ask me why I love this book, well, that’s because it is the kind of book which you can find new things and new thoughts when you read it again.4. 中西方教育的差别When it comes to talking about the differences between the education of China and western, I suppose this is a complicated topic. The most difference between the educations of china and western is the difference of education method. In china, a teacher is the kind of person who imparts knowledge to students, telling them “how to do “and “what to do”. But, in western, a teacher always plays the role as a guide. What I mean is that they often encourage students to say what they think, guide them to find a solution to the problem. The cultivation of independent thinking is highly-emphasized in western.5. 中西方文化的差异When it comes to talking about the differences between the culture of China and western, I suppose this is a complicated topic. The most difference between the culture of china and western is the different opinion on the independent personality. For example, in China, a teacher is the kind of person who imparts knowledge to students, telling them “how to do “and“what to do”. But, in western, a teacher always plays the role as a guide. What I mean is that they often encourage students to say what they think, guide them to find a solution to the problem. The cultivation of independent thinking and independent personality is highly-emphasized in western.6. 对研究生教育的看法When it comes to talking about post graduate education, I suppose it is a complicated topic. In my opinion,Unit3---economic1. 你喜欢购物吗?When it comes to talking about shopping, I am full of excitement. Because of I am ashopholic. What I want to say is, I do love shopping, and I love the feeling of choosing what I like. If you ask me why, I feel, the most important reason is that I am a person who deeply loves my life. What I mean is that only a person who is passionate about life can take a lot of time on buying goods which can make life more attractive. Another thing is that shopping is a good way to alleviate the pressure. Shopping always relax me after a period of hard working. So, I love shopping.2. 购物经历When it comes to talking about the shopping experience, I suppose it would be the best for me to share my successful experience of shopping. Once I had my eyes on a beautiful dress in the shopping mall. But, the price is so high for a student. So, I could do noting but try it on and put it off. When I came home, I still wanted to buy that dress. So, I turned on the computer, landing on a famous shopping website and hoping I could find that dress. Fortunately, I found that dress in an online shop. What is incredible is that the dress was at a price half of the one in shopping mall. So, I paid for it quickly. Within 2 days I received the dress. Well, after that I always do my shopping online.3. 你觉得沃尔玛好不好?When it comes to talking about the Wal-mart, I suppose it is a complicated topic. Despite there are many dispute about wal-mart, we can never deny wal-mart’s contribution to the society. The most important thing is that their ruthless policy “always low price, always” brings benefits to all of the consumers. Another thing is that wal-mart has offered many job opportunities to the one not having a job. To some extent, it helps government to maintain the social stability. What’s your opinion?4. 未来零售业趋势When it comes to talking about the tendency of retailing, I suppose it is a complicated topic. With the development of our economy and technology, online shop begins to exhibits its superiority. I do believe that one day online shop will replace the traditional supermarket. The reason why I think so is that compare with the traditional supermarket, online shop is more convenient. What I mean is that, we can choose the goods without going out or spending too much physical effort. We can buy anything we want at anywhere only with a computer. That’s to say, if you want to buy a handbag in French, you needn’t to fly to Paris.Unit5---sport1. 小孩子适合运动吗？When it comes to talking about the topic of “should kids take part in sports”, I suppose it is a complicated topic. You know, doing sports is good for health. For kids, doing sports is also beneficial. Doing sports can strengthen their muscle, improving their energy, letting them be happy and helping them building their self-confidence. Another thing is that doing sports provide opportunities for making new friends to shape perfect personality.2.喜欢看体育节目吗？When it comes to talking about the topic of sports programs, I suppose it is a popular topic nowadays. You know, the Asian games have concluded successfully a few days ago. But, in fact, I have not watched any competition in the last 2 weeks because I have a temperamental dislike of sports. So, I don’t like watching sports programs. What I reallylike to watch is the science programs. Such as: closing to science. This program is about some strange natural phenomenon which is happening around us. Such as: does UFO really exist? Or puzzle of savages. Sounds very attractive, right? I am a big fan of this program.Unit7---car1. 日益增长的汽车数量有什么看法Well, when it comes to talking about the topic of the number of cars, I suppose the using cars should be limited by low. In big cities we already have too many cars on the road. And this phenomenon increases pollution and traffic jams. The problem is that we have too many cars on the road now. So, restricting future car ownership is not going to help all that much. Perhaps something could be done about the taxis, many of which drive around the city empty.2. 你想买什么样的车？为什么？When it comes to talking about “what kind of cars do you want to buy”, I suppose it is a complicated topic. If I got a chance to buy a car, I feel, I will buy a smaller sports car. The reason why I want to buy a sports car is that I do enjoy the feeling of driving a car to anywhere I want to go within a high speed. Maybe, you will say it is very dangerous. But, I will gain thrills from it. Another thing is that, sports cars often have a cool shape which can arrest almost everyone’s attention.3. 汽车文化Well, when it comes to talking about the influence of automobile, I suppose it is a complicated topic. The most important thing is that automobiles have creating a more convenient life, bringing us to anywhere we want to go and making a contribution to the economy. Automobile industry has a good impact on the relative industry. Such as: steer, rubber glass and so on. Another thing is that, automobile have becoming the main channel to come close to the world, to maintain a close contact with others.Unit9---traveling1．你想去什么地方旅游Well, when it comes to talking about traveling, I am full of excitement because I enjoy traveling very much. If I got a chance, I feel, I would like to take a trip to Europe. Such as: France, Italy or Spain. The reason why I want to go there is that all of them are romantic nations. What I mean is, there are many attractive scenery waiting for you to enjoying and many moving stories are waiting for you to listen to. Another thing is that experiencing a life in another country, which is totally different from China, is my long-cherished wish.2．旅游应该注意什么Well, when it comes to talking about the topic of attentions in traveling, I suppose it is a interesting topic. The most important thing is that you must be careful with your belonging whenever you go to busy places, like a train station. There are often thieves there. Another thing is that you must forget fashion. Always wear your most clothes when going on long journey. If you are going somewhere cold, remember your warm clothes. Most importantly, always to remember to have fun----that’s what holidays are for.3．你对黄金周的看法During the golden week, traveling has become the most important part of people’s relaxation activities. Golden week have caused unexpected great travel craze and brisk economic activities. First, tourism－based holiday economy will raise consumption, up spending and, therefore, help to spur the domestic demand.But golden week also has many disadvantages. First, the travel craze puts a heav y burden on the traffic system, causing serious traffic jams. Besides, thousands an d thousands of tourists flood scenic spots, jamming railway stations and airports, c ausing some over crowdedness and safety problems. Therefore, we shouldn’t negle ct the new problems. I believe its advantages far outweigh its disadvantages.After all, it greatly benefits our overall economy. Finally, I suggest the government t ake effective measures to solve the aforementioned problems. Only in this way can we let the golden week economy develop in a sound way.。

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 51to 55are based on the following passageIt would be difficult to have a society like ours without public goods such as defense, transportation, and other services.A public good is one that a person can use without reducing the use of it for another person. One of the best examples of a public good is national defense. One person can benefit from our national defense without reducing another person's benefits. In fact, it is difficult to keep any person in our society from enjoying thebenefits of national defense.The market system does not work well in producing public goods. This is because a person who refuses to pay for a public good cannot be kept from using it. Suppose that the neighbors in a high crime area decide to hire a police force. Each neighbor, except Mrs. Smith, agrees to pay S 100 a year for it. Mrs. Smith refuses to pay because she knows that if all the others pay the $ 100, the police will guard the area anyway. So Mrs. Smith can enjoy the services of the police force without paying $100.The market system has no way to deal with this type of problem. For this reason, we cannot ask each person to make a direct payment in the form of product price. Therefore, we collect money for public goods by using taxes.51. According to the passage, public goods are ___A___.A) services enjoyed by all people .B) what we can buy and sell in public .C) products that we make for national defenseD) taxes paid by the people involved52 The writer gives the example of national defense in paragraph 2 in order to show that ____C__.A) there will be no safety if there is no national defenseB) all the people should be responsible for national defenseC) a public good is a shared benefit for the whole societyD) some public goods are more important than others53 The person who does not pay for a public good __D____.A) keeps himself from using its benefitB) cannot enjoy its benefit at any timeC) fails to keep its benefit from being usedD) enjoys its benefit all the same54. In the third paragraph the author explains __A____.A) what role the market system plays in producing public goodsB) how weak the market system is in producing public goodsC) why some people refuse to pay for public goodsD) what we can do to make use of the market system55. From the passage we learn that the purpose of collecting taxes is to ___A____.A) ensure the continuous supply of public goodsB) reduce the difference between the rich and the poorC) get extra money to support public goodsD) remind people of their dutyPassage TwoQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passageSummers with father were always enjoyable.

Accused of neglecting this part of our education, my father accepted their criticism. He decided to institute a summer school for my brother and me. However, his summer course included ancient history, which Papa felt our schools neglected, and navigation, in which we first had a formal examination in the dining room, part of which consisted of tying several knots in a given time limit. Then we were each separately sent on what was grandly referred to as a cruise (巡游) in my father’s 18-foot knockabout. WE spent the night on board, and loaded down, according to my mother, with enough food for a week. I remember that on my cruise I was required to formally plot our course, using the tide table, even though our goal was an island I could see clearly across the water in the distance.56.

BA) Friends and relatives thought the children should learn religion.B) The father wanted the children to learn more about religion.C) The children got poor grades in their regular school.D) The regular school teachers neglected the children.57.

People of all ages are exercising their way to better health. According to the latest figures, 59 percent of American adults exercise regularly--up 12 percent from just two years ago and more than double the figure of 25 year ago. Even non-exercises believe they would be more attractive and confident if they were more active.It is hard not to get the message. The advantages of physical fitness are shown on magazine covers, postage stamps, and television ads for everything, from beauty soaps to travel books. Exercise as a part of daily life did not catch on until the late 1960s when research by military doctors began to show the health benefits of doing regular physical exercises. Growing publicity (宣传) for races held in American cities helped fuel a strong interest in the ancient sport of running.

In the past, teachers spent hours collecting leaflets and menus, handouts in the street and free magazines from street stands, and buying foreign language newspapers and magazines. Now, all this material is quickly, cheaply and readily available from the comfort of our desks or homes. The Internet can be an infinite resource file of texts, listening material, video files, live TV from around the world ...
