Teenagers dodge security guards to put their names on trains and buses. But over the past decade, graffiti has all but disappeared from Britain's cities. Between 2007 and 2012 the number of incidents of graffiti recorded by the British Transport Police fell by 63%. A survey by the Environment Ministry shows that fewer places are blighted by tags than ever. Graffiti are increasingly confined to sanctioned walls, such as the Stockwell ball courts. In time the practice may die out entirely.The most obvious reason for the decline in tagging and train-painting is better policing. Numerous CCTV cameras mean it is harder to get away with painting illegally. And punishments are more severe. A generational shift is apparent, too. Fewer teenagers are getting into painting walls. They prefer to play with iPads and video games. Some have gone to art school and want to make money from their paintings. The Internet means that painters can win far more attentionby posting pictures online than they can by breaking into a railway yard.Taggers and graffiti artists mostly grew up in the 1980s and 1990s. Those men—and almost all are men—are now older and less willing to take risks. Graffiti may eventually disappear. But for now the hobby is almost respectable. The former graffiti artists paint abandoned warehouses at the weekend. It has become something to do on a Sunday afternoon—a slightly healthier alternative to sitting and watching football.1.Teenagers are not afraid of being caught by security guards when they put their names on trains and buses.（F）2.Less tags can be found in public places nowadays.（T）3.Because of better policing graffiti decreases.（T）4.Some teenagers go to art school in order to learn to paint walls.（F）5.Taggers and graffiti artists are still willing to take risks.（F）二、阅读理解：选择题（每题10分）排序题A. Does it cost the same for every household?B. You can pay right here, on the Internet!C. Just go ahead.D. We do for the live Cable TV programs.E. Exactly, even digital boxes.Liu Hui: Gordon, may I ask you a question?Gordon: Hi, Liu Hui. （C）.Liu Hui: Do I need to pay for a TV license if I only watch TV online in the UK?Gordon: Yes, indeed. You need to be covered by a TV license if you watch or record programs as they're being shown on TV or live on an online TV service.Liu Hui: Including watching TV on computers and mobile phones? Gordon: （E）. It is the law.Liu Hui: I see. How much is the license fee?Gordon: It costs £145.50 for a color TV license and £49.00 for a black and white TV license.Liu Hui: That's a lot of money for a year. （A）?Gordon: It costs the same for all applicants under 75. When you reach the age of 75, you may apply for a free Over 75 TV License.Liu Hui: I see.Gordon: Do you need such a license in China?Liu Hui: （D）.Gordon: Oh, it sounds similar. But for BBC, the license fee is the main source of income. There is no advertising on the BBC channels.Liu Hui: By the way, where should I go to pay for my license?Gordon: （B）.Liu Hui: Well, sure! Thank you!二、阅读理解：选择题（每题10分）Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印第安人保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead, Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete (运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jumpand the 1500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”1. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in（C）.A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. Oklahoma2. According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT（B）.A. fishingB. singingC. swimming3. Jim Thorpe started to play sports（B）.A. before he was 9 years oldB. when he was 16 years oldC. when he was 24 years old4. The word decathlon in paragraph 3 probably means（C）.。

Read the passage and choose the right sub-title (A-D) for each paragraph.A. The inexactitude of languageB. Preventing misunderstandingsC. Intercultural communicationD. Fostering respectE. Avoiding conflictsPara 1 回答Intercultural communication refers to messages transmitted between members of two or more different societies. Effective intercultural communication helps firms avoid conflict, prevent misunderstandings, and foster respect.Para 2 回答The workplace is growing more diverse every day. Managers cannot assume that what they find inoffensive will also be inoffensive to their subordinates. A lack of sensitivity can lead to claims of discrimination or harassment, which costs firms big money. Intercultural communication involves exercising sensitivity and tact to avoid such conflicts.Para 3 回答We human beings have developed language to communicate ideas to one another. Still, our language represents an imperfect form of communication. Sometimes, words cannot accurately convey an idea, because the information might be highly complex. Also, a concept that exists in one culture or language might not be part of another. Effective intercultural communication tries to bridge language gaps as effectively as possible so that everyone at the workplace finds themselves on the same page.Para 4 回答Given the inexactitude of language, misunderstandings can frequently arise between people from different cultures when they exchange information. Idioms often become lost in translation. For example, the English expression “to shoulder responsibility” translates into Swedish as “be a man for your hat”. Intercultural communication does not rely on expressions native to a particular language that could lead to confusion; rather, it relies on clear messages that all parties understand.Para 5 回答Communication happens differently in various cultures. What one society finds acceptable may be anathema to another. When coworkers from different cultures do not take these differences into account, not only does communication suffer but conflicts come to the fore. Effective intercultural communication does not try to ignore societal differences; rather, it respects the variations among the human race and enables people to transmit information clearly.。

Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman's house. When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father. Her family was impoverished, so Maggie's mother started doing laundry in her home. Maggie had to help her. She washed clothes every day, but she continued to go to school. She was a very good student, especially in math.After Maggie graduated from high school, she got a job as a teacher. In 1886, she married Armistead Walker. They had two sons and Maggie stayed home to care for them. She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order of St. Luke. This organization helped African Americans take care of the sick and bury the dead. Maggie Walker loved the work of the organization. The organization believed that African Americans should take care of each other.Over the years, Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization. In 1895, she suggested that St. Luke begin a program for young people. This program became very popular with schoolchildren. In 1899, Walk became Grand Secretary Treasurer of the St. Luke organization. However, because she was a woman, she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her.The Order of St. Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over. It had a lot of unpaid bills and only $31.61 in the bank. But soon Maggie Walker changed all of that. Her idea was to get new members to join the Organization. In just a few years, it grew from 3,400 members to 50,000 members. The organization bought a $100,000 office building and increased its staff to 55. Now Walker was ready for her next big step.1.

The sender is responsible for successful conveyance. The sender's personality, beliefs, cultural and educational background all influence the message and it is important for the sender to be aware of this as he or she is encoding the message. Simply put, encoding is translating information into symbols that represent the ideas or concepts of the message that needs sending. These symbols are usually words in written or spoken form. To ensure successful communication, the sender should know as much about his or her audience –the receiver – as possible in order to focus and support the encoding process.In addition to this awareness of self and encoding, the sender must choose the proper channel for conveying the message. Using the wrong channel may result in miscommunication. Like the sender, receivers are influenced by internal factors: their personality, their receptivity to the message or their relationship to the sender. Additionally, their current feelings, mood, or state of mind can affect a message. Once the message moves through the channel, the receiver then decodes it. The receiver uses his or her own experience and the context of the message to interpret its meaning.Feedback is the return message from the receiver to the sender. It is feedback that enables the sender to know whether the message was received successfully or not. Therefore it is essential to the communication process. This process, though very common, is fraught with potential breakdown at every turn. Spoken or written language is inherently easy to misinterpret.

In conclusion, effective and successful Communication takes place when the message is successfully received and the receiver provides the sender with desirable feedback.1. The sender's gender also influences the message.回答正确答案是：F获得2.00分中的2.00分2. Encoding is a process that translating information into symbols which serve as the ideas or concepts of the message that will be sent later.回答正确答案是：T获得2.00分中的2.00分3. These symbols are usually words and sentences in written form.回答正确答案是：F获得2.00分中的2.00分4. Channel is not crucial for conveying the message.回答正确答案是：F获得2.00分中的2.00分5. Feedbacks enable the sender to know whether the receiver has received the message successfully or not.回答填写主题句I. Read the passage and choose the right sub-title (A-D) for each paragraph.A. The inexactitude of languageB. Preventing misunderstandingsC. Intercultural communicationD. Fostering respectE. Avoiding conflictsPara 1 回答正确答案是：C获得2.00分中的2.00分Intercultural communication refers to messages transmitted between members of two or more different societies. Effective intercultural communication helps firms avoid conflict, prevent misunderstandings, and foster respect.Para 2 回答正确答案是：E获得2.00分中的2.00分The workplace is growing more diverse every day. Managers cannot assume that what they find inoffensive will also be inoffensive to their subordinates. A lack of sensitivity can lead to claims of discrimination or harassment, which costs firms big money. Intercultural communication involves exercising sensitivity and tact to avoid such conflicts.Para 3 回答正确答案是：A获得2.00分中的2.00分We human beings have developed language to communicate ideas to one another. Still, our language represents an imperfect form of communication. Sometimes, words cannot accurately convey an idea, because the information might be highly complex. Also, a concept that exists in one culture or language might not be part of another. Effective intercultural communication tries to bridge language gaps as effectively as possible so that everyone at the workplace finds themselves on the same page.Para 4 回答正确答案是：B获得2.00分中的2.00分Given the inexactitude of language, misunderstandings can frequently arise between people from different cultures when they exchange information. Idioms often become lost in translation. For example, the English expression “to shoulder responsibili ty” translates into Swedish as “be a man for your hat”. Intercultural communication does not rely on expressions native to a particular language that could lead to confusion; rather, it relies on clear messages that all parties understand.Para 5 回答正确答案是：D获得2.00分中的2.00分Communication happens differently in various cultures. What one society finds acceptable may be anathema to another. When coworkers from different cultures do not take these differences into account, not only does communication suffer but conflicts come to the fore. Effective intercultural communication does not try to ignore societal differences; rather, it respects the variations among the human race and enables people to transmit information clearly.选择题Maggie Walker was born in 1867 in Richmond, Virginia. Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman's house. When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father. Her family was impoverished, so Maggie's mother started doing laundry in her home. Maggie had to help her. She washed clothes every day, but she continued to go to school. She was a very good student, especially in math.After Maggie graduated from high school, she got a job as a teacher. In 1886, she married Armistead Walker. They had two sons and Maggie stayed home to care for them. She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order of St. Luke. This organization helped African Americans take care of the sick and bury the dead. Maggie Walker loved the work of the organization. The organization believed that African Americans should take care of each other.Over the years, Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization. In 1895, she suggested that St. Luke begin a program for young people. This program became very popular with schoolchildren. In 1899, Walk became Grand Secretary Treasurer of the St. Luke organization. However, because she was a woman, she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her.The Order of St. Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over. It had a lot of unpaid bills and only $31.61 in the bank. But soon Maggie Walker changed all of that. Her idea was to get new members to join the Organization. In just a few years, it grew from 3,400 members to 50,000 members. The organization bought a $100,000 office building and increased its staff to 55. Now Walker was ready for her next big step.1.

[答 F]选择题Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印第区) that is now Oklahoma.

That' s not tosay that every nation carries the same menu items： choices vary widely depending on location.Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald' s in India doesn' tserve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans. Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves tosee McDonald' s as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism（沙文主义）, and Europeannations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food.A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a groupof people destroyed a McDonald' s under construction to protest globalization and bad food.The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald' s, killing a 27-year-old employee. No oneclaimed responsibility.But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald' s is still widelyseen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization.1.

McDonald' s has over 30, 000 locations in the world now.2. The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean[答 C].A. very crowdedB. very cleanC. existing everywhere3. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that[答 A].A. McDonald' s designs its menu to suit the local peopleB. millions of young adults got their first job with McDonald' sC. the McDonald' s menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such as the Big Mac4. What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald' s？ [答A]A. They destroyed a McDonald' s under construction.B. They protested outside a McDonald' s.C. They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald' s.5.

It means quietness, privacy, harmonyand peace for me.Living in the country requires an active lifestyle. It involves activities like doing dailychores, preparing firewood for winter heating, feeding animals including pets and livestock,tending the garden, or securing fences, etc. For me, the most attractive activities are fishing,hunting and hiking. I enjoy seeing what nature has to offer everyday through a simple walkdown the little trail, or a relaxing drive along the country road with patches of green grassornamented with wildlife sightings of birds, moose, bears, deer, etc.Living the country life helps us appreciate some of the simpler things, things that make usfeel good about ourselves and the world. It may be just a get together on a Saturday at thelocal farmers market, or a project or a problem that the community might pull together to helpsolve. I have participated in a few community projects, like dealing with out-of-control grassfires, a roof that collapsed from a large snow fall, or even helping a recent widow with firewood for the winter.

FOR MANY STUDENTSB. A MAJOR BARRIERC. EQUALITY IN ACCESS TO EDUCATIOND. DIFFERENT PEOPLEE. NON-TRADITIONAL STUDENTSThe National Union of Students (NUS) welcomes the news that greater numbers of black and disabledstudents are studying at UK universities, but there is still a lot of work to be done on wideningaccess, writes the union' s president, Gemma Tumelty.A recent Department of Communities and Local Government (DCLG) equalities review showed thatsignificant numbers of potential students felt their disability was[答B]to accessing highereducation (HE) . This is simply unacceptable.Equality and diversity is not entirely a numbers game and before too much praise is given weneed to hear more from [答 E], not just about their experience of accessing higher educationbut also going through the system.Equality in society is absolutely, and fundamentally, linked to[答 C].[答 A], university is the place where they will be first exposed to different cultures and[答案 D]. As well as fighting for better access, the NUS wants to see diversity properly valuedand promoted within the student experience. Many pay lip service to the value of diversity,but is this recognized and promoted as a core asset to those who go through the HE system？Equality in society can be promoted by equality and diversity at university. But theof university as a positive, diverse environment must be seen by students as adding value asmuch as any other factors before the numbers game is really won by the champions of diversity.选择题It can be really frustrating (使人沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym and workout with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice allthe healthy, sweating, skinny members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are, well, zaftig.It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that？Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classesof while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Nowthe fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering (迎合) to overweightand weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the skinny people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight toparticipate.Trainers recommend functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌) . They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on theirown weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. Theequipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors,Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea isa very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercisemore and improve our fitness level, it' s a step in the right direction.1. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to[答 A].A. fatB. healthyC. friendly2. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that[答 B].A. most large gym chains really don' t want members to show up frequentlyB. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC. regular gyms don' t accept overweight people to participate in their programs3.
