Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.Accommodation ZonesHomestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential (居住的). Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.Meal Plans Available* Continental Breakfast* Breakfast and Dinner* Breakfast, Packed Lunch and DinnerIt's important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Youraccommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal (谷物类食品), bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert, fruit and coffee.FriendsIf you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host's permission. You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.Self-Catering Accommodation in Private HomesAccommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room. This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much.41. The passage is probably written for ________.A. the host willing to receive foreign studentsB. foreigners hoping to build British cultureC. travelers planning to visit families in LondonD. English learners applying to live in English homes42. Which of the following will the host provide?A. Room cleaning.B. Medical care.C. Free transport.D. Physical training.43. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A. Zone 4 is more crowded than Zone 2.B. The business centre of London is in Zone 1.C. Hosts dislike traveling to the city centre.D. Accommodation in the city centre is not provided.44. According to the passage, what does continental Breakfast include?A. Dessert and coffeeB. Fruit and vegetables.C. Bread and fruit juiceD. Cereal and cold meat.45. Why do some people choose self-catering accommodation?A. To experience a warmer family atmosphere.B. To enrich their knowledge of English.C. To entertain friends as they like.D. To enjoy much more freedom.BJohn was waiting for the girl whose heart he knew, but whose face he didn’t. Thirteen months ago, in a Florida library he took a book off the shelf and took great interest in the notes in the margin(页边空白). The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind.In front of the book, he discovered the previous owner’s name, Miss Hollis Maynell. With time and effort he located her address. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to correspond.During the following years the two grew to know each other through the mail. John requested a photograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really cared, it wouldn't matter what she looked like. Later they scheduled their first meeting-7:00 pm at Grand Central Station in New York."You'll recognize me, " she wrote, "by the red rose I'll be wearing on my lapel." So at 7:00 he was in the station looking for the girl with the red rose.A girl in a green suit was coming toward him, her figure long and slim and her eyes were blue. Almost uncontrollably he made one step closer to her, and just at this moment he saw Hollis Maynell-a woman well past 40. The girl was walking quickly away. He felt as though he split(裂开) in two, so keen was his desire to follow the girl, and yet so deep was his longing for the woman whose spirit had truly accompanied him and upheld his own.He did not hesitate. He squared his shoulders and said to the woman, "I’m John, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me; may I take you to dinner?"The woman smiled, "I don’t know what this is about, son," she answered, "but the young lady in the green suit begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out to dinner, I should tell you that she is waiting for you in the restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!"46. We can infer from the passage that_______.A.John succeeded in winning the heart of Miss MaynellB.Miss Maynell was a very funny womanC.John had know the secret and prepared in advanceD.John got Miss Maynell's address from the book.47. We can learn from the passage that_____.A. it is useful to read often in the library.B. Miss Maynell was brighter than JohnC. you must make sure that he is honest before you make a friendD. only the true love can stand the test48. Which of the following is right about the book?A. The woman put the book there on purpose.B. Miss Maynell's name greatly aroused John's interest.C. Part of the book was written by Miss Maynell.D. Possibly the book was once Miss Maynell's but now it was owned by the library.49. The woman who wore the rose on her coat _____.A. didn't know the girl who gave her the roseB. was an acquaintance (熟人) of Miss MaynellC. showed great admiration for the clever girlD. was moved deeply by the true love between the two youngsters.50. According to the passage, Miss Maynell begged that woman to wear the rose to _____.A. compare with her and gain an advantage over herB. make sure that the man was there on timeC. check if he was the man she wrote toD. see whether he was a real man who wasn't just fond of appearanceCWhen we think of leadership, we often think of strength and power. But what are these really, and how do they operate?Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. If this is even possible, it is short-term, and tends to backfire. If you order someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel do more harm in the long-term. They will also experience fear.Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they associate you with his emotion of fear, they will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear has no place in leadership.The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone to do something, which may be part of the work day; or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they become fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation. Today’s work place is all about relationships.Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they are recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work. They know the pay check is not the single mostmotivating factor in the work life of most people.The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence------knowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and those of others. Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.51. An employee may have a feeling of fear in the work place when ________.A. he is forced to do thingsB. he can’t work at his bestC. he feels his brain shut downD. he thinks of his work too heavy52. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. People tend to associate leadership with fear.B. Working conditions affect people’s physical health.C. Good relationship is the key to business success.D. Smart people are more functional in the work place.53. To positively influence employees, a leader should first of all ______.A. provide better suggestionsB. develop his own personalityC. give his employees a pay riseD. hide his own emotion of fear54. Good l eadership is mainly seen in a leader’s ability to ______.A. provide a variety of projects for employeesB. help raise employees’ living conditionsC. give employees special instructionsD. deal wisely with employees’ emotions55. This passage is mainly about ______A. not forcing others to do thingsB. how to develop your emotional intelligenceC. how to be a good leaderD. how to influence peopleDEconomics has long been known as an unpleasant science. But is any economist so dull as to criticize Christmas? At first glance, the holiday season in western economies seems a treat for those who are concerned with such things as GDP growth. After all, everyone is spending; in America, sellers make 25 % of their yearly sales and 60 % of their profits between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Even so, economists find something to worry about in the nature of the purchases being made.Much of the holiday spending is on gifts for others. At the simplest level, giving gifts involves the giver’s thinking of something that the receiver would like — he tries to guess her preferences, as economists say — and then buying the gift and delivering it. Yet this guessing of preferences is often done badly. Every year, ties go unworn and books unread. And even if a gift is enjoyed, it may not be what the receiver would have bought if they had spent the money themselves.Interested in this mismatch between wants and gifts, in 1993 Joel Waldfogel, then an economist at Yale University, attempted to estimate the disparity(差距) in dollar terms. He asked students two questions at the end of a holiday season: first, estimate the total amount paid (by the givers) for all the holiday gifts you received; second, apart from the emotional value of the items, if you did not have them, how much would you be willing to pay to get them? His results were unpleasant: on average, a gift was valued by the receiver well below the price paid by the giver.The most conservative(保守的) estimate put the average rece iver’s valuation at 90% of the buying price. The missing 10% is what economists call a deadweight loss(无谓损失)because it’s a waste of resources that could be avoided without making anyone poorer. In other words, if the giver gave the cash value of the purchase instead of the gift itself, the receiver could then buy what he/she really wants and be better off for no extra cost. It suggests that in America, where givers spend $40 billion on Christmas gifts, $ 4 billion is being lost annually in the process of gift giving. Add in birthdays, weddings and non Christian occasions, and the figure would balloon. So should economists call for an end to gift giving, or at least press for money to become the gift of choice?56. Why do some people regard the holiday season in western economies a treat?A. Because the economic situation in US has been depressing.B. Because American sellers make a quarter of their yearly sales through holiday seasons.C. Because holiday spending can speed up GDP growth.D. Because sellers can make as much profit as 60 % every holiday season.57. What’s the main idea for the second paragraph?A. In many cases the gifts cannot meet the receivers’ needs.B. The purchases made over holiday season are actually a waste of money.C. It’s really not easy to guess the others’ preferences.D. Much of the holiday spending is on gifts for others.58. The purpose of Joel Waldfogel’s study is to _____.A. prove the mismatch between wants and giftsB. estimate the disparity (差距) between wants and gifts in economic termsC. spark new ideas of economic studies on holiday spendingD. discover the exact cost of holiday spending on gift giving59. Economists think of the misusing 10% of holiday spending as a deadweight loss because_______.A. the cash value of the purchase is lower than the buying priceB. it is actually a waste of resources in economic termsC. with the money the givers can be better off for no extra costD. it makes many people even poorer for spending more on unwanted gifts60. According to the passage altogether how much money is wasted every year on gift giving?A. About $4 billion.B. About 10% of the total value.C. About $40 billion.D. Much more than $4 billion.第五部分．信息匹配（2*5=10）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

Last winter, when I was heavily pregnant(怀孕), I was visiting my sister and brother-in-law’s house. I had to park my car in a nearby parkin g lot because they didn’t have a place for parking. The snow was extremely heavy and there was lotsof 1 on the ground, so not many people dared to go out that evening! When I left their house and 2 to my car around 11pm, I noticed that my car was the only one 3 .Surrounded by silence, I rushed into the car nervously. When I finally triedto 4 away, my wheels began to spin(打滑). I realized I was stuck! I wondered what I should do. 5 , in my rear-view mirror(后视镜), I saw four teenage boys 6 my car. They were walking side by side in a line and behaved a bit like 7 ------ at least I thought that was what they looked like. My car was in a very 8 area and I was so frightened when I saw them. I was certain they were coming to my car to 9 me.Terrified, I just froze. One of the young men tapped on my window 10 and said, “Excuse me, Madam, would you like some 11 ? You seem to have a problem with the car.” Still a little afraid, I said, “I am stuck.” And the young man said, “It’s okay. Stay in your car and we’ll 12 you out of the snow.” And they did! When they finally got my car out of the snow, they 13 and waved good-byeto me. I rolled down my window and thanked them, 14 to have judged them so poorly.People like to judge the person they come across, and they are in turn judgedby others.

But if you judge a fish, by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."—Albert EinsteinIf you have a kid with special needs in the school system, you' re likely to have come across that saying hanging on a classroom wall. My five-year-old daughter Syona has cerebral palsy (脑瘫) and it means, combined with her communication and sight problems, that normal standard isn't always an accurate measure of her abilities.By now you have probably heard about Chris Ulmer, the 26-year old teacher in Jacksonville, Florida, who starts his special education class by calling up each student to give them much admiration and a high-five. I couldn't help but be reminded of Syona's teacher and how she supports each kid in a very similar way. Ulmer recently shared a video of his teaching experience. "I have seen their confidence increase rapidly." he said. All I could think was: how lucky these students are to have such good teachers.Syona's teacher has ' an attitude that can best be summarized in one word: wonderful. Her teacher doesn't focus on what can't be done --- she focuses on what can be done. Over the past several months, my husband Dilip and I have seen Syona's confidence increase greatly. She uses words she wouldn't have thought of using before. She recently told me about her classmates trip to Ecuador and was very proud when I understood her on the first try.I actually wonder what the influence would be if we did something similar to what Ulmer does with his students in our home. We've recently started our day by reminding each other of the good qualities we all have. If we are reminded of our strengths on a regular basis, we will become increasingly confident about progress and success.4．What does the author think of Albert Einstein's saying?A．Funny. B．True. C．Strange. D．Confusing.5．What can we learn about Syona's teacher?A．She is Syona's favorite teacher. B．She puts Einstein's quote on the wallC．She uses videos to teach her students. D．She helps increase her students' confidence.6．What change has taken place in the author's family?A．They've invited Ulmer's students to their home. B．They visit Ulmer's classroom regularly.C．They give each other praise every day. D．They feel thankful to people in their lives.7．What is the author's attitude towards Chris Ulmar's way of teaching?A．Supportive B．Opposed C．Indifferent D．NegativeCTraveling without a map in different countries, I find out about different ways of directions every time I ask "How can I get to the post office?"Foreign tourists are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don't have name signs. In Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go pasta fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop."People in Los Angeles, the US, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance by time, not miles. "How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh," they answer, "it’s about five minutes from here." You don't understand completely, "Yes, but how many miles away is it, please?" To this question you won't get an answer, because most probably they don't know it themselves.People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead, a Greek will often say," Follow me." Then he'll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.Sometimes a person doesn't know the answer to your question. What happens in the situation? A New Yorker might say," Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I don't know." People there believe that "I don't" is impolite. They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan! However, one thing will help you everywhere in the world. It's body language.8．Which of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions?A．"The post office is at Street Kamira."B．"Turn right at the hospital and go past a school."C．"The post office is about five minutes from here."D．"Go south two miles. Turn west and then go another mile."9．Why don’t people in Los Angeles give directions in miles?A．They prefer to head you the way.B．They prefer to use body language.C．They often have no idea of distance measured by miles.D．They use landmarks in their directions instead of distance.10．How do Greeks give directions?A．Using street names. B．Using landmarks.C．Leading people the way. D．Giving people a wrong direction.11．What will probably be talked about in the next paragraph?A．The importance of a map. B．The situation in London.C．Different languages in Japan. D．The use of body language.DOver the last seven years, most states have banned (禁止) texting by drivers, and public service campaigns have tried a wide range of methods to persuade people to put down their phones when they are behind the wheel.Yet the problem, by just about any measure, appears to be getting worse. Americans are still texting while driving, as well as using social networks and taking photos. Road accidents, which had fallen for years, are now rising sharply.That is partly because people are driving more, but Mark Rosekind, the chief of the National Highway TrafficSafety Administration, said distracted (分心) driving was "only increasing, unfortunately.""Big change requires big ideas," he said in a speech last month, referring broadly to the need to improve road safety. So to try to change a distinctly modern behavior, lawmakers and public health experts are reaching back to an old approach: They want to treat distracted driving like drunk driving.An idea from lawmakers in New York is to give police officers a new device called the Textalyzer. It would work like this: An officer arriving at the scene of a crash could ask for the phones of the drivers and use the Textalyzer to check in the operating system for recent activity. The technology could determine whether a driver had just texted, emailed or done anything else that is not allowed under New York's hands- free driving laws."We need something on the books that can change people's behavior," said Felix W. Ortiz, who pushed for the state's 2001 ban on hand-held devices by drivers. If the Textalyzer bill becomes law, he said, "people are going to be more afraid to put their hands on the cell phone."12．Which of the following best describes the ban on drivers' texting in the US?A．Ineffective. B．Unnecessary. C．Inconsistent. D．Unfair.13．What can the Textalyzer help a police officer find out?A．Where a driver came from.B．Whether a driver used their phone when driving.C．How fast a driver was going.D．When a driver arrived at the scene.14．What does the underlined word" something" in the last paragraph refer to?A．Advice. B．Data．C．Tests. D．Laws.15．What is a suitable title for the text?A．To Drive or Not to Drive? Think Before You StartB．Texting and Driving? Watch Out for the TextalyzerC．New York Banning Hand- Held Devices by Drivers.D．The Next Generation Cell Phone: The Textalyzer.第二节（本题共5小题，每小题2.5分，共12.5分。

Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. Y ou will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health.Accommodation ZonesHomestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2, 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is commercial and not residential (居住的). Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger accommodation in a less crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground.Meal Plans Available* Continental Breakfast* Breakfast and Dinner* Breakfast, Packed Lunch and DinnerIt's important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Y ouraccommodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal (谷物类食品), bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert, fruit and coffee.FriendsIf you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host's permission. Y ou have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy.Self-Catering Accommodation in Private HomesAccommodation on a room-only basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room. This kind of accommodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the long-stay student. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much.41. The passage is probably written for ________.A. the host willing to receive foreign studentsB. foreigners hoping to build British cultureC. travelers planning to visit families in LondonD.

Thirteen months ago, in a Florida library he took a book off the shelf and took great interest in the notes in the margin(页边空白). The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind.In front of the book, he discovered the previous owner’s name, Miss Hollis M aynell. With time and effort he located her address. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to correspond.During the following years the two grew to know each other through the mail. John requested a photograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really cared, it wouldn't matter what she looked like. Later they scheduled their first meeting-7:00 pm at Grand Central Station in New Y ork."Y ou'll recognize me, " she wrote, "by the red rose I'll be wearing on my lapel." So at 7:00 he was in the station looking for the girl with the red rose.A girl in a green suit was coming toward him, her figure long and slim and her eyes were blue. Almost uncontrollably he made one step closer to her, and just at this moment he saw Hollis Maynell-a woman well past 40. The girl was walking quickly away. He felt as though he split(裂开) in two, so keen was his desire to follow the girl, and yet so deep was his longing for the woman whose spirit had truly accompanied him and upheld his own.He did not hesitate. He squared his shoulders and said to the woman, "I’m John, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me; may I take you to dinner?"The woman smiled, "I don’t know what this is about, son," she answered, "but the young lady in the green suit begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out to dinner, I should tell you that she is waiting for you in the restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test!"46. We can infer from the passage that_______.A.John succeeded in winning the heart of Miss MaynellB.Miss Maynell was a very funny womanC.John had know the secret and prepared in advanceD.John got Miss Maynell's address from the book.47. We can learn from the passage that_____.A. it is useful to read often in the library.B. Miss Maynell was brighter than JohnC. you must make sure that he is honest before you make a friendD. only the true love can stand the test48. Which of the following is right about the book?A. The woman put the book there on purpose.B. Miss Maynell's name greatly aroused John's interest.C. Part of the book was written by Miss Maynell.D. Possibly the book was once Miss Maynell's but now it was owned by the library.49. The woman who wore the rose on her coat _____.A. didn't know the girl who gave her the roseB. was an acquaintance (熟人) of Miss MaynellC. showed great admiration for the clever girlD. was moved deeply by the true love between the two youngsters.50. According to the passage, Miss Maynell begged that woman to wear the rose to _____.A. compare with her and gain an advantage over herB. make sure that the man was there on timeC. check if he was the man she wrote toD. see whether he was a real man who wasn't just fond of appearanceCWhen we think of leadership, we often think of strength and power. But what are these really, and how do they operate?Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. If this is even possible, it is short-term, and tends to backfire. If you order someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel do more harm in the long-term. They will also experience fear.Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they associate you with his emotion of fear, they will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear has no place in leadership.The way we influence people in a lasting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone to do something, which may be part of the work day; or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they become fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation. Today’s work place is all about relationships.Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they are recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work. They know the pay check is not the single mostmotivating factor in the work life of most people.The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligence------knowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and those of others. Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.51. An employee may have a feeling of fear in the work place when ________.A. he is forced to do thingsB. he can’t work at his bestC. he feels his brain shut downD. he thinks of his work too heavy52. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. People tend to associate leadership with fear.B. Working conditions affect people’s physical health.C. Good relationship is the key to business success.D. Smart people are more functional in the work place.53. To positively influence employees, a leader should first of all ______.A. provide better suggestionsB. develop his own personalityC. give his employees a pay riseD. hide his own emotion of fear54. Good lea dership is mainly seen in a leader’s ability to ______.A. provide a variety of projects for employeesB. help raise employees’ living conditionsC. give employees special instructionsD. deal wisely with employees’ emotions55. This passage is mainly about ______A. not forcing others to do thingsB. how to develop your emotional intelligenceC. how to be a good leaderD. how to influence peopleDEconomics has long been known as an unpleasant science. But is any economist so dull as to criticize Christmas? At first glance, the holiday season in western economies seems a treat for those who are concerned with such things as GDP growth. After all, everyone is spending; in America, sellers make 25 % of their yearly sales and 60 % of their profits between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Even so, economists find something to worry about in the nature of the purchases being made.Much of the holiday spending is on gifts for others. At the simplest level, giving gifts involves the giver’s thinking of something that the receiver would like — he tries to guess her preferences, as economists say — and then buying the gift and delivering it. Y et this guessing of preferences is often done badly. Every year, ties go unworn and books unread. And even if a gift is enjoyed, it may not be what the receiver would have bought if they had spent the money themselves.Interested in this mismatch between wants and gifts, in 1993 Joel Waldfogel, then an economist at Y ale University, attempted to estimate the disparity(差距) in dollar terms. He asked students two questions at the end of a holiday season: first, estimate the total amount paid (by the givers) for all the holiday gifts you received; second, apart from the emotional value of the items, if you did not have them, how much would you be willing to pay to get them? His results were unpleasant: on average, a gift was valued by the receiver well below the price paid by the giver.The most conservative(保守的) estimate put the average receiver’s valuation at 90% of the buying price. The missing 10% is what economists call a deadweight loss(无谓损失)because it’s a waste of resources that could be avoided without making anyone poorer. In other words, if the giver gave the cash value of the purchase instead of the gift itself, the receiver could then buy what he/she really wants and be better off for no extra cost. It suggests that in America, where givers spend $40 billion on Christmas gifts, $ 4 billion is being lost annually in the process of gift giving. Add in birthdays, weddings and non Christian occasions, and the figure would balloon. So should economists call for an end to gift giving, or at least press for money to become the gift of choice?56. Why do some people regard the holiday season in western economies a treat?A. Because the economic situation in US has been depressing.B. Because American sellers make a quarter of their yearly sales through holiday seasons.C. Because holiday spending can speed up GDP growth.D. Because sellers can make as much profit as 60 % every holiday season.57. What’s the main idea for the second paragraph?A. In many cases the gifts cannot meet the receivers’ needs.B. The purchases made over holiday season are actually a waste of money.C. It’s really not easy to guess the others’ prefer ences.D. Much of the holiday spending is on gifts for others.58. The purpose of Joel Waldfogel’s study is to _____.A. prove the mismatch between wants and giftsB. estimate the disparity (差距) between wants and gifts in economic termsC. spark new ideas of economic studies on holiday spendingD. discover the exact cost of holiday spending on gift giving59. Economists think of the misusing 10% of holiday spending as a deadweight loss because_______.A. the cash value of the purchase is lower than the buying priceB. it is actually a waste of resources in economic termsC. with the money the givers can be better off for no extra costD. it makes many people even poorer for spending more on unwanted gifts60. According to the passage altogether how much money is wasted every year on gift giving?A. About $4 billion.B. About 10% of the total value.C. About $40 billion.D. Much more than $4 billion.第五部分．信息匹配（2*5=10）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

I’d like to 1 with you one of my favorites.Once, there was a young boy. He was very 2 because he couldn’t keep his friends. He asked his father why this was so. His father 3 replied, “Son, each time you say or do something that 4 one of your friends, hammer(锤) a piece of wood into the 5 .” The curious boy did as he was told and soon he made fence(篱笆) out of the wood.“Father!” he cried, “I can’t get out! I am blocked by this fence!”“Well, Son, each time you say something 6 to a friend, you can take one piece of wood out.”The boy 7 this, too. On the first day he took out one piece of wood and on the second day he took out another two. On the third day he took out some more. Finally he had 8 all of the wood. “But Father!” he cried again, “Look at the 9 in the g round! They are big and dark!

You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How?Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings.Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.Don’t be afraid to le arn. Knowledge is a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry easily.Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competitio n, but a trip, step by step.16.

The sentence “Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.” means that _______.A. Nothing is possibleB. If we don’t give up, there is always hopeC. You should learn to give upD. Although you try, nothing will change.18.Why can’t we use time carelessly? ___________A. Because time is too expensive.B. Because time never returns.C. Because we are too poor.D.

Yet, I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the car accident I had to see a doctor---- and go to court(法庭).After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reasons to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stopped treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination reportconsisted of ten lines and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made me pay him $770.Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance(保险) company the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time… and I left without getting a cent.My experience taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality（职业道德）. Secondly foreigners are still being treated unfairly. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.26.
