Yet why are some of these films so successful, while others seem to lose the main ideaof the book completely?CharactersOne of the most important things in a film is having characters that the audience can relate to(与•--有某丰中联系).It does not matter what job they do, where they live, or even whether they are good or bad. However, the audience must be able to recognize something of themselves in them. 75, no one wants to spend two hours watching people they do not like or understand.ActorsWhen you read a book, you often build a picture of the 76 in your mind. Forexample, if you have imagined a character as short and dark-haired, it can be quite a surprise when you go to the cinema and see a tall actor with blond hair. Producers often feel the need to 77 famous actors, but they should not do this unless these actors are completely rightfor the story. When they put the wrong person in the film, they often ruin( 破坏)the effect of the film as a whole.Learning 78Books can be read over a long period of time. So writers can look very closely at every little detail, and spend a lot of time thinking about the best descriptions. People producing films have to make them move more 79, or they are afraid that their audience will get bored. That 'swhy the most important is learning which parts should stay, which should be cut from the film.EndingsThe biggest problem with some films is that they change the ending to make it happier, and this may let part of the audience feel pleased. To many people, however, it loses the meaning of the book. A film needs to stay true to the main idea of a book, evenif it makes some people 80.

One【2016届上海市虹口区初三英语二模试题】D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) ( 12分)The art of acting in a theatre and writing plays for thetheatre is known as drama (戏剧). Most dramatic eventstake the form of actors acting out a story by a writer, calleda playwright or dramatist.Because this is usually done on a stage in a theatre, drama is also called theatre. The stories acted in the theatre are called plays. Drama is very much like literature(文学) , but is not written only to be read from books. In a way it is a kind of literature brought to life in the form of a play.Some drama is not written down, but is made up by the actors as they go along. This is called improvisation(即兴创作). Another form of drama is mime. In mime, the actors do not say anything, but use their movements and facial expressions to tell the story. In mime make-up and costume is important to show the kind of character that the actor is playing.The first recorded play was performed by the ancient Egyptians around 2700 BC. The beginning of drama as we know it, however, was in ancient Greece, where it used to be part of a religious ceremony(宗教仪式). The Greek plays were performed in semi-circular theatres. These outdoor theatres could often hold over 20,000 people. The church in the Middle Ages also used drama as part of its worship. As time went by, groups of actors were from town to town with a mobile stage to put these plays on.Soon, actors and playwrights found new subjects for their plays.Towards the end of the 15th century, the Italians developed the art ofcomedy.A hundred years later, in England, William Shakespeare(1564-1616) was writing many plays on historical subjects.Nowadays, plays have as many different subjects as novels do andthere are dramatists in many countries writing all kinds of plays.88.

He was taller by nearly 1.5 inches (3.81 cm) when he landed on Earthafter his 340-day space mission on the International Space Station (ISS).His change in height, which lasted about two days, raised the question: What are the effects of a long-term stay in space?As you probably know, there is no gravity in space. This not only causes difficulties in everyday actions like eating, walking and sleeping, but also problems for the human body.The first problem is the air. Without gravity, carbon dioxide cannot spread during breathing, but gathers around the body and causes headaches. More than that, human feelings of movement are affected, which could make people feel sick.The body’s fluids(液体) don’t work well in weightlessness, making blood flow upwardinstead of down to the lower legs, and astronauts’ faces become fatter than normal. Gaps between bones also become larger because humans cannot stand up straight. The spine(脊柱) can also get bigger in zero gravity.In addition, human bodies become weaker because of the lack of gravity and space to move around in. Some astronauts said that after they returned, their muscles hurt and their skin became very sensitive(敏感的). Kelly said during his first press conference, “It was almost like my body was on fire wherever I sat or lay or walked.”However, the research into the effects of long-term space flight on human bodies and minds never stops. There are many actions that astronauts can take in space. They can take vitamin D for bone growth, wear special belts on their legs to keep blood in their lower bodies and do strength coaches’ exercises. The fans in the ISS also help spread carbon dioxide around. “We will do further research.” NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said, “I believe it will be meaningful to human-being.”88. Something occured to Kelly’s body when he finished his space mission, didn’t it?__________________________________________________________________________.89.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) ( 12分)Venus（金星）has long been one of the most misunderstoodplanets. Like the earth, Venus has its own atmosphere. However,the atmosphere is much thicker than that of the earth, which makesit difficult for modern scientists to study. There is much we still donot know about what this planet is like. However, using special machines, scientists have unlocked many of the long-hidden secrets in recent years.Venus is in many ways the earth’s sister planet. It is almost the same in size and chemistry as the earth. In other words, Venus is made up of almost the exact same types of materials as the earth, in about the same amounts.In the early days of Venus’ 4-billion-year-old life, it would have appeared very similar to the earth. The two would have been almost the same. However, over a period of a few million years ago, Venus took a very different course than the earth. Venus lies much closer to the sun than our planet. It has made Venus terribly hot.Since it is closer to the sun, Venus’ temperature should be a little warmer than that of the earth. As the planet warmed, water which can be used to form oceans, lakes and rivers, evaporated (蒸发). This increase in water vapor (水蒸气) began a cycle of global warming. Water vapor is a very effective greenhouse gas. It caused the temperature to rise and more water to evaporate. The temperature then climbed still further. Today it is likely t hat all of Venus’ water has evaporated into the atmosphere. This atmosphere effectively keep s the sun’s energy and makes the surface to burn much hotter than it naturally would.If you happen to find a way to survive the extreme heat on the surface of Venus, you will quickly notice something strange about the days. Venus rotates (旋转) very slowly, so that a day on Venus actually lasts longer than a year. Instead of the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, the sun would appear to rise in the west and set in the east when you are on Venus.88. Both Venus and the earth have their own atmosphere, don’t they? (1分)____________, ________________________________________________________.89. How can the scientists finally get to know more about Venus in recent years? （2分）_____________________________________________________________________.90.

As a boy, I always thought people simply bought whatever theyneeded. Whether Grandfather knew this, I didn’t know. One day he said, “Come, I have something for you.”I followed him to a workroom. “You should have a toy boat. You can sail it at Storvassdal,”he said. “Great,” I thought, looking around for the boat. But there was none.Grandfather pointed to a block of wood. “The boat is in there,” he said. Then he handed me some tools and showed me how to use them properly. “It’ll be a fine boat, and you’ll make it with your own hands,” he said, “No one can give you what you do for yourself.” The words rang in my head as I worked. The boat was finished. It wasn’t much to look at, but I was proud. Then I sailed it at Storvassdal.We had to return to America. “You cannot bring that boat home with you,” my mother said. We had too much baggage. Feeling sad, I hid my boat under a big rock at Storvassdal.I said good-bye to Grandfather, not knowing I would never see him again.In 1964, I went to Storvassdal with my parents and my wife and children. To my surprise, for 34 years my treasure stayed here, waiting for my return. I felt we three were together againalthough my grandfather had died 22 years before.I carved（雕刻) “1930” and “1964” on its side and put it back.I returned to the lake in 1968, 1971, 1977 and 1988. Each time I had the boat and carved the year, my grandfather seemed near.My last trip to Storvassdal was in 1991. I brought my granddaughters: Catherine, 13; Claire, 12.

And her tail looked like a rat’s.She was brought to the vet to be put to sleep because her owners didn’t want her anymore. But I thought Minnie had a sweet personality. “No one should judge her by her looks,”I thought. So instead of putting her to sleep, the vet gave her the chance to be adopted(收养)by someone else. I advertised Minnie in the local paper: “Funny-looking dog, well behaved, needs a loving family.”When a young man called, I warned him that Minnie was strange looking. The boy on the phone told me that his grandfather’s 16-year-old dog had just died. They wanted Minnie no matter what it looked like. I gave Minnie a good bath. Then we waited for them to arrive.At last, an old car drove up in front of the vet’s. Two kids ran to the door. They took Minnie to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car. I hurried behind them to see his reaction to Minnie.The grandfather carried Minnie in his arms and touched her soft hair. She licked(舔)his face.

Johnhad a good job and had just been asked to go on a trip to another cityfor a few days. Mary decided to go along, too. They asked for ababysitter (临时照顾幼儿者) to care for the children and made the trip, returning home a little earlier than they had planned.As they drove into their hometown feeling glad to be back, they noticed smoke, and they went off their usual road to see what it was. They found a home in flames (燃烧着). Mary said: “Oh well, it isn’t our house burning. Let’s go home.”But John drove closer and said: “That home belongs to my friend Fred at work. He wouldn’t be in. Maybe there is something we could do.”“It has nothing to do with us.” Mary disagreed. But John drove up and stopped and they were both shocked to see the whole house in flames. A woman on the lawn was screaming (= crying and shouting), “The children! Get the children!” John asked “Where are the children?”“In the basement,” cried the woman, “down the hall and to the left.”All at once, John held the water hose and wet his clothes and ran for the basement full of smoke. He found the door and two children. Holding one under each arm, he carried the two frightened and coughing children into waiting arms and asked how many more children were down there. They told him two more. However, Mary caught his arms and said, “John! Don’t go back! It’s like killing yourself!

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) ( 12分)We often hear people say, “Life is not perfect.” But when problems really come to you, what do you do? Are you able to get through hard times?Liang Jiaxiang has a story to tell. The 13-year-old Beijing boy once took part in the election (竞选) for class monitor. But he failed, which made him feel frustrated (懊恼). “All the books and TV shows say that as long as you work hard toward your goal, you will make it,” said Liang. “But why didn’t I make it? Does it mean hard work is useless?” He spent some time thinking, but still felt upset for he didn’t get any answers. Then he decided to talk to his classmates to find out why he was not chosen. “Through the talks, I learned problems with myself that I never noticed before,” said Liang. “I cheered up again, since I saw what to improve. I will fight for the next vote.”Like Liang, Cao Yuhan, a 12-year-old Beijing girl, used to have difficulties, too. It all started when she was told to learn how to swim. Cao hated swimming. She didn’t practice, so one time she fell into the pool and nearly drowned (溺死). Feeling frightened, the girl said she suddenly felt challenged to learn the sport. “I told myself that I should beat swimming so that I would never drown again. Now I’m an excellent swimmer. If I had given up then, I would never have learned how much I could enjoy the sport.”A positive (正面的) attitude helps make bad things turn good, says Hou Ying, a psychological counselor (心理咨询师) at Beijing Bacui Bilingual School. “Students at my schoolcome to me with different problems,” she says. “Some are angry. Some are worried. Some blame (责备)their problems on others. I always advise them to face their problems, accept them and fix them. It may sound it is very hard to do, but once you choose to face them, it becomes easier.”88.

Should it really be called ―optional‖ if you have to do it? Unfortunately, I waited until the last minute to sign up. Many of the activities were already full, but I made a decision to join the Cooking Club because at least that way I would get a snack to eat.Tuesday, April 7It was the first time to be here. Like many of my ideas, joining the Cooking Club made sense at first but was turning out to be a disaster. Most people have been in the club for more than a year, so they already know what they‘re doing. And since they all know each other, they weren‘t exactly interested in a newcomer.Thursday, April 9What a terrible day! How could I know that if a recipe says to beat cookie batter (糊), you couldn‘t do it with your fists (拳头)? I thought the other kids would never stop laughing. And it was not easy to get cookie batter off your clothes.Friday, April 10I have more funny things in Cooking Club. Now I know that chocolate mousse is a dessertand it isn‘t spelled m-o-o-s-e. ―Mousse‖ and ―Moose‖ (驼鹿) sound exactly the same. So I don‘t think my question about whether vegetarians(素食者) can eat chocolate mousse was really that silly.Monday, April 13One of my bright ideas worked out for a change! Everyone laughed when I handed out the chocolate ―moose‖ cookie that I made yesterday, but this time I was laughing, too. The peanut butter antlers(鹿角) were a huge hit. We‘re even planning to bake more cookies for the school food festival next week.69. Carole chose the Cooking Club because _________.A) She liked making different kinds of food.B) Cooking club was the only activity she could choose.C) She could get some food in the Cooking Club.D) It was not open to the students until the last minute.70.

Why did the writer beat the cookie batter with her fists?A) Because she was upset about being in the club.B) Because she misunderstood a cooking recipe.C) Because she didn‘t know how to use tools.D) Because she was laughed at by other kids.72. What did Carole think of mousse at beginning?A) She thought eating mousse was silly.B) She thought mousse was a kind of animal.C) She thought mousse didn‘t taste good.D) She thought only vegetarians can eat mousse.73.

Reading comprehension（阅读理解）（共50分）A．Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案）(12分) Alfred Nobel was a Swedish chemist who lived from 1833 to 1896. Alfred and his brother made explosives (炸药), but in 1864 there was an accident in the laboratory and Alfred‘s brother was killed. Alfred then decided to spend his life trying to make explosives safer to use.One of the strongest explosives at that time was nitroglycerin (硝化甘油). This explosive, which looks like oily water, is very dangerous to use or even to carry. Nobel wanted to study nitroglycerin so he could finds a way to make it safer, but the Swedish government would not let him make any more explosives in his laboratory. It was too dangerous. Nobel had the idea of taking nitroglycerin out on a boat in the middle of a lake and working with it there.When Nobel wanted to take the nitroglycerin he was working with from one place to another, he put it into small boxes. Then he put the small boxes into a larger box made of clay. One day, when he opened the large clay box, he found that nitroglycerin was coming out of one of the small boxes. To his surprise, the large clay box was still dry. This gave him the idea of mixing clay with nitroglycerin. The clay would take the oil out of nitroglycerin and make it safer. He called this new explosive ―dynamite‖.Dynamite was very useful. Alfred Nobel made and sold so much of it that he became a very rich man. In his will he gave a lot of money to the Swedish Academy of Arts and Science (瑞典艺术和科学学院). He wanted the money to be used to give prizes to people who did excellent work.

Reading comprehension（阅读理解）（共50分）A．Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案）(12分)Touch is one of the most important of our five senses. It is one of the first senses we develop. One of the most commonly accepted forms oftouch among people is also one of the first experiences we have in theworld---A hug!There is no better way to understand the importance of hugs than to lose them. For those who have experienced the loss of hugs, you will know how important they are to share.A recent research has shown that when people hug, the brain releases the chemical which increases our willingness to trust and reduces fear. It has also shown that hugs are great for your heart.In 1995, a pair of newly born twins was being cared for in hospital. While one of the twins seemed quite healthy, her sister was not. After trying different medical treatments, the nurse on duty, Gayle Kasparian, placed the twins in bed together. The twins immediately snuggled (依偎) up to each other. As one placed her arm around the other, the weak baby became better gradually. How great the power of a hug is!The need for hugs doesn‘t disappear as we grow older, though it seems we are less willing to give them. Research on people of all ages has proven that a hug is necessary for physical and emotional health.Without hugs we can become sad. A hug provides safety and gentleness.

That we know. So, manufactures made electronic cigarettes as a safer smoking choice---safer than tobacco.E-cigarettes contain the drug nicotine like cigarettes. But they do not use tobacco. And you do not light (33) . They are powered by battery.So, if e-cigarettes are so safe, why have poison control centers around the United States seen an increase(34) telephone calls about e-cigarette poisonings? The answer is children.Most of the calls are from people worried about children who have played with the devices. In the period of one month this year, the United States Centers for Disease Control say 215 peoplecalled the Center with e-cigarette concerns. More than half of these calls were for children(35) _______(age) five and younger. The devices apparently had made them sick.Tim McAfee is director of the CDC’s Office on Smok ing and Health.

According to individuals in the growing field of space tourism, it may be in five or fifty years.Space Adventures is taking reservations for the flights, __41__ to the first manned spaceflights. The trip will cost $90,000, with a $6,000 __42__ required. More than 200 people have made reservations, said Sarah, Dalton, the company spokeswoman.John Spencer of the Space Tourism Society says that a more realistic __43__ for regular space travel is 50 years. Issues of expense, difficulty, and danger must still be resolved. Oh yes – a reusable vehicle must also be invented. He adds, however, that ten years from now, a __44__ number of people may be able to visit a space station. He says he expects a fleet of private space vehicles or ―space yachts‖ (游艇) to be in __45__ in 20 to 25 years. They will do what he calls ―orbital super yachting.‖ After that, there will be cruise lines, like those that travel the Earth’s oceans, as well as space hotels and resorts.There have been only a few studies to determine the public’s interest in space tourism, but they all conclude that a __46__ of people would like to visit space and would be willing to paygood money for it.According to expert Patrick Collins, between 5 million and 20 million people will head for space by 2030. He also __47__ 100 flights a day leaving Earth. It would be __48__ to have more than 100 hotels in Earth’s orbit（轨道）, a few more orbiting the moon, and a few on the moon's surface. These hotels would __49__ more than 100,000 people, who would work month-long shifts. Each hotel would have a service station. Such service stations would provide oxygen, water, and hydrogen. They might also ship __50__ safe electric power back to Earth.If all the issues can be resolved, Collins says that space tourism could one day become a $1 trillion.III. Reading ComprehensionSection A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The survey about childhood in the Third World shows that the struggle for survival is long and hard. But in the rich world, children can suffer from a different kind of poverty — of the spirit.51 , one Western country alone now sees 14, 000 attempted suicides ( 自杀) every year by children under 15, and one child 52 five needs psychiatric (心理) advice.There are many good things about 53 in the Third World. Take the close and constant relation between children and their parents, relatives and neighbours for example. In the West, the very nature of work puts distance between 54 and children. Butin most Third World villages mother and father do not go miles away each day to work in offices. 55 , the child sees mother and father, relations and neighbours working 56 and often shares in that work.A child 57 in this way learns his or her role through joining in the community's work : helping to dig or build, look after animals or babies --- rather than through playing with water and sand in kindergarten, keeping pets 58 playing with dolls.These children may grow up with a less oppressive sense of space and time than the western children. Their sense of days and time has a lot to do with the change of seasons and positions of the sun or the moon in the sky. Children in the rich world, 59 , are provided with a watch as one of the 60 signs of growing up, so that they can 61 along with their parents about being late for school times, meal times, bed times, the times of TV shows.Third World children do not usually 62 to stay indoors, still less in highrise apartments(公寓) . Instead of dangerous roads, "keep off the grass" signs and "don't speak to strangers", there is often a sense of 63 to study and play. Parents can see their children outside rather than observe them 64 from ten floors up.65 , twelve million children under five still die every year through hunger and disease. But childhood in the Third World is not all bad.51. A. As usual B. For instance C. In fact D. In other words52. A. by B. in C. to D. under53. A. childhood B. poverty C. spirit D. survival54.

What's Section BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)West End theatre is a popular term for mainstream professional theatre in London, or sometimes more specifica lly for shows staged in the large theatres of London’s ―Theatreland‖. Along with New York’s Broadway Theatre, West End theatre is usually considered to represent the highest level of theatre in the English speaking world. Seeing a West End show is a common tourist activity in London.Total attendances broke the 12 million in 2002, and in May and June 2005. The Times reported that this record might be broken in 2005. Factors behind high ticket sales in the first half of 2005 included new hit musicals such as Billy Elliot, the Producers and Mary Poppins and the high number of film stars appearing. Since the late 1990s there has been an increase in the number of American actors on the London stage.London’s main theatre district is located in the heart of the W est End of the city centre. Renowned theatre streets include Drury Lane, Shaftesbury Avenue, and the Strand. This area contains approximately forty large theatres and is often referred to Theatreland. The works staged are mainly musicals, classic or plays, and comedy performances.Most of the theaters in ―Theatreland‖ are late Victorian of Edwardian, and they are privately owned. Most of them have their own characteristics with a splendid past. On the other hand, present audience will find them not comfortable as the leg room of the seat is often cramped (people were smaller a hundred years ago) and audience facilities such as bars and restrooms are often much smaller than those in modern theatres. The protected status of the buildings and their confined urban locations, combined with financial limit, mean that it is very difficult to make through improvements to the level of comfort offered. In 2004, it was estimated that an investment of ￡250 million was required for modernization, and the theatre owners failed to request a lower tax to help them meet the costs.66. Which of the following statement does not describe West End theatre right?A. West End theatre refers to the professional theatre in London.B. West End theatre is one of the famous theatres in London.C. West End theatre also refers to the plays in the theatreland in London.D. Seeing West End theatre show is a must for tourists to London.67. What might not be the reason for the increasing ticket sale?A. West End theatre often stages best musicals.B. West End theatre has attracted quite a number of film stars.C. Theatreland is located in the heart of the West End.D. The facilities of traditional theatres have been improved.68. What is the word cramped in the last paragraph mean?A. LimitedB. SmallC. ComfortableD. Spacious69. Which can you not infer from the passage?A. Broadway theatre also reflects the high level of theatre in the English-speaking world.B. West End theatre came into existence around 100 years ago.C. West End theatre used to belong to Queen Victoria and King Edward.D.The theatre owners did not succeed in persuading government to reduce their tax to rebuildthe theatres.(B)Vancouver(温哥华)Natural ResourcesAs a major centre for the global forestry industry, Vancouver is host to many international forestry conferences and events, and the natural home of the massive BC forestry business. Companies such as Canfor and West Fraser Timber Co., the second and third largest lumber（木材）producers in the world, are headquartered in Vancouver. Vancouver is also a major centre for the mining industry.International tradeInternational trade is a key part for Vancouver's economy. The city has Canada's largest port and is one of North America's major gateways for Pan-Pacific（泛太平洋）trade. The Port of Vancouver ranks first in North America in total foreign exports and second on the West Coast in total goods volume.Banking and FinancialThe headquarters for HSBC Canada （汇丰银行）is located in the Financial District in downtown. Canada's third largest commercial entity (实体), Jim Pattison Group is also based in Vancouver.International relationVancouver is a major centre for diplomacy (外交) and foreign relations. Most countries of the world have consulate（领事馆）or general offices in the Central Business District. In fact, many major diplomatic conferences are hosted by the city - including the world famous G7 summit with President Clinton, APEC, and the World Trade Organization. Greenpeace has its world headquarters in the city. Therefore, Vancouver was among the first North American cities to declare itself a Nuclear Weapons Free Zone.TourismTourism is a leading industry to Vancouver. The Whistler-Blackcomb Resort is among the most popular skiing resorts in North America, and will be the site of the downhill events of the 2010 Winter Olympics. Vancouver's beaches, parks, waterfronts, and mountain backdrops and its multi- cultural character attract more and more tourists.FilmVancouver was the source of the sobriquet（绰号）"Hollywood North", for hosting the production of about tenpercent of Hollywood's movies. Many U.S. television and films series are shot exclusively in Vancouver. This has partly been because of the favourable Canadian dollar exchange rate.70. Which of the following description about Vancouver is NOT true according to the passage?A.The Port of Vancouver ranks first in North America in total foreign exports.B.Vancouver is a film production centre and called ―Hollywood North".C.International forestry conferences and events were held in Vancouver.D.Vancouver is a leading centre for the global agriculture and industry.71. Which of the following organizations or events is not related to Vancouver?A. Jim Pattison GroupB. WHOC. GreenpeaceD. The 2010 Winter Olympics72. If you are a graduate from Shanghai Finance and Economics University, what is it thatwill probably attract you to visit Vancouver?A. Its international trade.B. Its film industry.C. HSBC Canada.D. Its beautiful natural scenery.73. We can infer______ from the part: International relation.A. Vancouver is a major centre for foreign relations.B. Vancouver has hosted many major diplomatic conferences.C. APEC and WTO are headquartered in Vancouver.D. Canada is a peace-loving country.(C)Jogging has become the most popular individual sport in America. Many theories, even some mystical (神秘的) ones, have been advanced to explain the popularity of jogging. The plain truth is that jogging is a cheap, quick and efficient way to maintain (or achieve )physical fitness.The most useful sort of exercise is exercise that develops the heart, lungs, and circulatory（循环的）systems. If these systems are fit, the body is ready for almost any sport and for almost any sudden demand made by work or emergencies. One can train more specifically, as by developing strength for weight lifting or the ability to run straight ahead for short distances with great poweras in football, but running trains your heart and lungs to deliver oxygen more efficiently to all parts of your body. It is worth doing that this sort of exercise is the only kind that can reduce heart disease, the number one cause of death in America.Only one sort of equipment is needed – a good pair of shoes. Physicians advise beginning joggers not to run in a tennis or gym shoe. Many design advances have been made in only the last several years that make an excellent running shoe indispensable （不可缺少的）if a runner wishes to develop as quickly as possible, with as little chance of injury as possible. A good running shoe will have soft pads for absorbing shock, as well as slightly built-up heels and full heel cups（后跟垫）that will give the knee and ankle more stability. A wise investment in good shoes will prevent blisters (水泡）and the foot, ankle and knee injuries and will also enable the wearer to run on paved or soft surfaces. No other special equipment is needed; you can jog in any clothing youdesire, even your street clothes.Many joggers wear expensive, flashy(华丽的) warm –up suits, but just as many wear a simple pair of gym shoes and T-shirt; in fact, many people just jog in last year’s clothes. In cold weather, several layers of clothing are better than one heavy sweater or coat. If joggers are wearing several layers of clothing, they can add or subtract layers as conditions change.It takes surprisingly little time to develop the ability to run. The American Jogging Association has a twelve – week program designed to move from a fifteen-minute walk (which almost anyone can manage who is in reasonable health) to a thirty-minute run. A measure of common sense, a physical examination, and a planned schedule are all it takes.74.They main purpose of this passage is to _____.A. discuss jogging as a physical fitness programB. describe the type of clothing needed for joggingC. provide scientific evidence of the benefits of joggingD. launch a nationwide physical fitness campaign75. The most effective kind of exercise should be the one that __________.A. trains the body for weight liftingB. enables a person to run straight aheadC. is both beneficial and inexpensiveD. develops the heart, lungs, and circulatory systems76.We can conclude from this passage that ______.A. jogging makes heart disease no longer an American problemB. jogging can be harmful if the runner is not properly preparedC. warm-up suits are preferable to gym shoes and T-shirtsD. jogging is bad for the ankles and knees77.What can we learn from the third paragraph?A. For beginning joggers，tennis or gym shoes are better choices.B.A pair of good running shoes is necessary for a runner to develop quickly.C.A pair of good running shoes with a full heel-cup is designed to prevent shock.D. Comfortable pads will give the knees and ankles more stability.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Most people look forward to retirement as a time when they can finally take up activities that they never had the time or energy to pursue before．But some recent studies on people in their golden years are disturbing: they suggest that retirees are more likely to suffer from depression and possibly higher rates of other diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure．That’s why a new study of French workers is welcome news.Led by Hugo Westerlund, a professor of psychology at Stockholm University, the study of more than 14,000 workers found lower rates of depression and fatigue (疲劳) in people after they got tired while they were still employed.The scientists followed the employees of the French national gas and electric company for 14 years．They found in the year immediately after retirement, the volunteers reported 40% fewer depressive symptoms than they had in the year before theirretirement．The researchers also found an 81% drop in reports of both mental and physical fatigue over the same time period.Clearly, said Westerlund, much of these decrease in physical and mental fatigue can be traced back to relief from the stresses of work．The decline in depressive symptoms suggests that retirement may be having a positive mental effect, too, which may have a lot to do with the generous pensions (养老金) that French workers enjoy．Most retirees in that country still benefit from about 80% of their yearly salaries.―The economic or financial situation in retirement is very important,‖ Westerlund says．―We don’t know if the decr ease in fatigue and depressive symptoms is because of the removal of something bad while in work or the addition of something good while in retirement．But no matter what the reason, if life in retirement is not comfortable, then we won’t see the improvemen ts we did.‖However, in European nations like France, governments are considering changes to pension plans, which may affect ret irees’ health after they leave their jobs－with less of a financial safety net, workers may no longer seem so mentally and physically happy to be out of work．(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.) 78．According to some recent studies, retired people may have depression and higher rates of other diseases like __________.79．Westerlund’s g roup found that in the year just after the retirement most retired French workers felt much less tired both _______________.80．What does the word ―improvements‖ in paragraph 5 refer to? ______________________ 81．Retirement may make people happier with ________________.第II卷（共47分）I.
