While groups sports are still part of the Nowadays, millions of people misuse and even overuse pain medications and other curriculum, the new way is to teach skillsthat are useful beyond gym class. Instead of drugs. Research by the American National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA, 1999) shows learning how to climb a rope, children are taught to lift weights, balance their diets and that around 2% of the population over age 12 were using drugs non-medically. build physical endurance. In this way, kids are given the tools and skills and experiences so 77. they can lead a physicallyactive life the rest of their life.

Researchers at the University of Wisconsin had demonstrated how effective the fit-for-life model of gym class can be. They observed how 50 overweight children lost more weight when they cycled and skied cross-country than when they played sports. The researchers also found that teaching sports like football resulted in less overall movement, partly because reluctant students were able to sit on the bench.Another problem with simply teaching group sports in gym class is that only a tiny percentage of students continue playing them after graduating from high school. The new method teaches skills that translate to adulthood.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statement in NO MORE THAN 10WORDS.)81.

A few dogs started barking a t it. The elephant woke up in a terrible ang er: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety.That didn’t stop the elephant. It destroy ed a dozen houses and injured several peopl e. The villagers were scared and angry. The n someone suggested calling Parbati, the elep hant princess.Parbati Barua’s father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Par bati to ride an elephant before she could ev en walk. He also taught her the dangerous a rt 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 f ather, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being t here and many years later she went back to her old fife. "Life in the city is too dull. C atching elephants is an adventure and the ex citement lasts for days after the chase, " she says.But Parbati doesn’t catch elephants just for fun. “My work, ” she says, “is to rescu e man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man. ” And this is exac tly what Parbati has been doing for many y ears. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is ang ry: for many years, illegal hunters have atta cked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now f ighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle befo re they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also inv olves love and devotion. A good elephant ta mer will spend hours a day singing love son gs to a newly captured elephant. “Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never f orget them. They are also more loyal than h umans, ” 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 m ainly to ________.A. get long lasting excitementB. keep bo th man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. ma ke the angry elephants tame66.

Researchers on employee turnover.(C)The 2012 London Olympics had enough problems to worry about. But one more has just been added—a communications blacko ut caused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun, scientists have detected the signs of a flesh c ycle of sunspots that could peak in 2012, jus t in time for the arrival of the Olympic torc h in London.Now scientists believe that this peak cou ld result in vast solar explosions that could t hrow billions of tons of charged matter towa rds the Earth, causing strong solar storms t hat could jam the telecommunications satellit es and interact links sending five Olympic b roadcast from London.“The Sun’s activity has a strong influen ce on the Earth. The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum whic h could affect the functions of communicatio ns satellites, ” said Professor Richard Harris on, head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.At the peak of the cycle, violent outburs ts called coronal mass ejections (日冕物质抛射) occur in the Sun’s atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter. “A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometres per hour. Suc h events can expose astronauts to a deadly a mount, can disable satellites, cause power fai lures on Earth and disturb communications,” Professor Harrison added. The risk is gre atest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.Next week in America, NASA is schedul ed to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observato ry (SDO), which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most ad vanced televisions available.The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory hel ped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares (太阳耀斑) and explosions as they occur.Professor Richard Hold away, the lab’s director, said that the SDO should be able t o provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite comm unications on Earth “If we have advance wa rning, we’ll be able to reduce the damage. What you don’t want is things switching off for a week with no idea of what’s caused t he problem,” he said.()72. The phrase “communications blackou t” in paragraph 1 most probably refers to _ _______ during the 2012 Olympics.A. the extinguishing of the Olympic torc hB. the collapse of broadcasting systemsC. the transportation breakdown in Lon donD. the destruction of weather satellites73. What can be inferred about the sola r activity described in the passage?A. The most fatal matter from the coro na falls onto Earth.B. The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.C. It takes several seconds for the char ged matter to reach Earth.D. The number of sunspots declines afte r coronal mass ejections.74. according to the passage, NASA will launch a satellite to ________.A. take images of the solar systemB. provide early warning of thunderstormsC. keep track of solar activitiesD. impr ove the communications on Earth75. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Solar Storms: An Invisible KillerB. Solar Storms: Earth Environment in DangerC. Solar Storms: Threatening the Huma n RaceD. Solar Storms: Human Activities to B e TroubledSection CA. Drug overuse and its consequenceB. The problem of drug overuse in Ame ricaC. Benefits of medicine and its wise useD. Female drug overuse with reference t o that of malesE. Misuse of medicine among the young generationF. Improper use of medicine among seni or citizens76. ________Nowadays, millions of people misuse and even overuse pain medications and other dr ugs. Research by the American National Inst itute on Drug Abuse (NIDA, 1999) shows th at around 2% of the population over age 12 were using drugs non-medically.77. ________NIDA views medications as a powerful f orce for good in the contemporary world. T hey reduce and remove pain for millions of people suffering from illness and disease. Th ey make it possible for doctors to perform c omplicated surgery to save lives. Many peopl e afflicted by serious medical conditions are able to control their symptoms and become active, contributing citizens. NIDA points out that most individuals who take these drags use them in a responsible.78. ________Nevertheless, overuse of drugs such as o pium, central nervous system (CNS) depressa nts and stimulants does lead to harmful reli ance in some people and is therefore becomi ng a serious public health concern. Althoughthis abuse affects many people worldwide, p articular trends of concern to the medical pr ofession in the US appear among older adult s, teenagers arid women.79. ________Though it may be a surprise to many, t he misuse of medications may be the most c ommon form of drug abuse among the elder ly. Dr Kenneth Schrader of Duke University, North Carolina states that although the eld erly represent about 13% of the US populati on, those aged 65 and over account for the consumption of one third of all drugs. Peopl e in this age group use medications roughly three times more than the general populatio n and have poorer compliance with instructi on for use. In another study of elderly patie nts admitted to treatment programs, 70% we re women who had overused medicines.80. ________Unfortunately, this trend among women does not only affect those aged over 60. In general, among women and men who are usi ng either an anti-anxiety drug or a sedative, women are twice as likely to become addict ed. In addition, statistics compiled for 12-17 year olds show that teenage girls are more l ikely than teenage boys to begin overusing p sychotherapeutic medication such as painkille rs, tranquillizers, stimulants and sedatives.Section DPhys ed (physical education) is making a comeback as a part of the school core cur riculum(核心课程), but with a difference. Wh ile group sports are still part of the curricul um, the new way is to teach skills that are useful beyond gym class. Instead of learning how to climb a rope, children are taught t o lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance. In this way, kids are giv en the tools and skills and experiences so th ey can lead a physically active life the rest of their life.Considering that 15 percent of American children 6 to 18 are overweight, supporters say more money and thought must be put i nto phys ed curriculum. In many cases, that may mean not just replacing the old gym-cl ass model with fitness programs but also sta rting up phys ed programs because school b oards often “put P. E. on the chopping bloc k, cutting it entirely or decreasing its teachers or the days it is offered, ” says Alicia M oag-Stahlberg, the executive director of Actio n for Health Kids. The difference in phys e d programs is partly due to the lack of a n ational standard. “Physical education needs t o be par t of the core curriculum, ” she add ed.The wisdom of the new approach has so me scientific support. Researchers at the Uni versity of Wisconsin have demonstrated howeffective the fit-for-life model of gym class can be. They observed how 50 overweight ch ildren lost more weight when they cycled an d skied cross-country than when they played sports. The researchers also found that teac hing sports like football resulted in less over all movement, partly because reluctant stude nts were able to sit on the bench.Another problem with simply teaching g roup sports in gym class is that only a tiny percentage of students continue playing them after graduating from high school. The new method teaches sells that translate to adulth ood.()(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS. )81. In the new P. E. program, children learn to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance rather than ______ __.82. As for P. E., some school boards eit her ________.83.

Researchers on employee turnover.(C)The 2012 London Olympics had enough problems to worry about. But one more hasjust been added - a communications blackout caused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun, scientists have detected the signs ofa flesh cycle of sunspots that could peak in 2012, just in time for the arrival ofthe Olympic torch in London.Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosionsthat could throw billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth, causing strongsolar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and interact linkssending five Olympic broadcast from London."The Sun's activity has a strong influence on the Earth. The Olympics couldbe in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of communications satellites," said Professor Richard Harrison, head of space physicsat the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.At the peak of the cycle, violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections(日冕物质抛射) occur in the Sun's atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter. " A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons ofsolar material into space at over a million kilometres per hour. Such events canexpose astronauts to a deadly amount, can disable satellites, cause power failureson Earth and disturb communications," Professor Harrison added. The risk is greatestduring a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sunspots.Next week in America, NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoringsolar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which will take imagesof the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most advanced televisions available.The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras thatwill capture images of the solar flares (太阳耀斑) and explosions as they occur.Professor Richard Hold away, the lab's director, said that the SDO should beable to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affectsatellite communications on Earth "If we have advance warning, we'll be able toreduce the damage. What you don't want is things switching off for a week with noidea of what's caused the problem," he said.72. The phrase "communications blackout" in paragraph 1 most probably refers to during the 2012 Olympics.A. the extinguishing of the Olympic torchB. the collapse of broadcasting systemsC. the transportation breakdown in LondonD. the destruction of weather satellites73. What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage?A. The most fatal matter from the corona falls onto Earth.B. The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.C. It takes several seconds for the charged matter to reach Earth.D. The number of sunspots declines after coronal mass ejections.74. According to the passage, NASA will launch a satellite to _ _A. take images of the solar systemB. provide early warning of thunderstormsC. keep track of solar activitiesD. improve the communications onEarth75. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Solar Storms: An Invisible KillerB. Solar Storms: Earth Environment in DangerC. Solar Storms: Threatening the Human RaceD. Solar Storms: Human Activities to Be TroubledSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-Ffor eachNowadays. millions of people misuse and even overuse pain medications andother drugs. Research by the American National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA,1999) shows that around 2% of the population over age 12 were using drugs non-medically. 77.NIDA views medications as a powerful forcefor good in the contemporary world. They reduce and remove pain for millions of people suffering from illness and disease. They make it possible fordoctors to perform complicated surgery to save lives. Many people afflicted by serious medical conditions are able to control their symptoms and become active, contributing citizens. NIDA points out that most individuals who take these drags use them in a responsible.78.Nevertheless. overuse of drugs such as opioids, central nervous system (CNS) depressants and stimulants does lead to harmful reliance in some people and is therefore becoming a serious public health concern. Although this abuse affects many people worldwide, particular trends of concern to the medical profession in the US appear among older adults, teenagers arid women.79.Though it may be a surprise to many, the misuse of medications may be the most common form of drug abuse among the elderly. Dr Kenneth Schrader of Duke University, North Carolina states that although the elderly represent about 13% of the US population, those aged 65 and over account for the consumption of one third of all drugs. People in this age group use medications roughly three times more than the general population and have poorer compliance with instruction for use. In another study of elderly patients admitted to treatment programs, 70% were women who had overused medicines.80.Unfortunately, this trend among women does not only affect those aged over In general, among women and men who are using either an anti-anxiety drug or a sedative, women are twice as likely to become addicted. In addition, statistics compiled for 12-17 year olds show that teenage girls are more likely than teenage boys to begin overusing psychotherapeutic medication such as painkillers, tranquillisers, stimulants and sedatives.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Phys ed (physical education) is making a comeback as a part of the school core curriculum(核心课程), but with a difference. While group sports are still part of the curriculum, the new way is to teach skills that are useful beyond gym class. Instead of learning how to climb a rope, children are taught to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance. In this way,kids are given the tools and skills and experiences so they can lead a physically active life the rest of their l ife.Considering that 15 percent of American children 6 to 18 are overweight, supporters say more mone y and thought must be put into phys ed curriculum. In many cases, that may mean not just replacing the old gym-class model with fitness programs but also starting up phys ed programs because school boards often "put P.E. on the chopping block, cutting it entirely or decreasing its teachers or the days it is offered," says Alicia Moag-Stahlberg, the executive director of Action for Health Kids. The difference in phys ed programs is partly due to the lack of a national standard. "Physical education needs to be part of the core curriculum," she added.The wisdom of the new approach has some scientific support. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin have demonstrated how effective the fit-for-life model of gym class can be. They observed how 50 overweight children lost more weight when they cycled and skied cross-country than when they played sports. The researchers also found that teaching sports like football resulted in less overall movement, partly because reluctant students were able to sit on the bench.Another problem with simply teaching group sports in gym class is that only a tiny percentage of students continue playing them after graduating from high school. The new method teaches sells that translate to adulthood.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81. In the new P.E. program, children learn to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance rather than __82. As for P.E., some school boards either83. What are the two problems with simply teaching group sports?84. What is the long-term benefit of the new P.E program?第Ⅱ卷(共45分)I.

The passages will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard.Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.I’m going to tell you about a sport, Capoeira. Capoeira came from Brazil where it was started by the African slaves. They used it for entertainment and also to fight against their white masters. It is a kind of Kungfu which is also like a dance. You need to be very fit and strong and you should have a good control of your body. You often have to use your hands to balance. Everyone sits around in a circle, singing and playing music and two people fight in the center. To fight the other person, you kick with your feet, but nowadays, there is no contact. As soon as you see other person’s hand or foot coming towards you, you have to move away quickly. You must be careful the other person doesn’t kick you. If the other person kicks you, then you lose. I have been doing Capoeira for three years. I have improved a lot since I first started, and now I wear a green belt. In the future, I would like to become a trainer and teach other people about this beautiful sport.Questions:11. Who first started Capoeira?12. What is required if a man wants to do Capoeira?13. When can a man be judged to lose in Capoeira?Questions 14 through16 are based on the following passage:As a hotel manager, I have to walk around and smile all the time. Every day, I arrive at the hotel at 7:30 a.m. Before I prepare for the daily operational meeting, I first review the night manager’s reports and catch up on the E-mails that come through overnight. Then I check on breakfast and walk through the restaurant to say hello to guests. At 9 a.m., there is the dailyoperational meeting where staff report on what’s happened the night before and what need to be careful. At 9:45, I am very visible and always around the hotel meeting and greeting staff. I have to keep an eye on what is going on, everything from the temperature of the shower to the variety of food. And we have to bear in mind cultural differences. For example, the Japanese want a running bath and the Americans are fine just with ashower. At 1 p.m., I always eat with a different member of staff as this is a valuable way of finding out what is going on. From 2 p.m. to 7 p.m., there are different meetings concerning all the aspects of hotel operation. I try to get through all the work by 7 p.m.Questions:14. What does the speaker do first after arriving at the hotel?15. Which of the following detail shows the speaker concerns about the cultural differences?16. What does the passage mainly tell us?Section CDirections: In section C, you will hear two longer conversations. The conversations will be read twice. After you hear each conversation, you are required to fill in the numbered blanks with the information you have heard.

Now, what seems to be the trouble?M: Well, I’ve had this awful flu, and a terrible cough.W: I see.

And again. Good. That’s it.M: Thank you.W: Well, I’ll give you some cough mixture. Take one spoonful every four hours for the next five days.M: OK, Doctor.Blanks 21 through 24 are based on the following conversation.M: I don’t know what to read, can you recommend anything?W: Hum, have you read a book by John Wyndham, called Web? I’ve just finished it.M: No, I haven’t. What sort of book is it?W: Well, you know John Wyndham writes science fiction stories. This one is a novel set on Pacific Island.M: What’s it about then?W: Well, the main characters are a man and a woman, who join in a group of people hoping to start the perfect society.M: I see. And do they succeed?W: No. It turns out that the island they go to is full of huge spiders. They are determined to destroy everything there, including any people who come.
