2.8 students and 2 teachers at Santa Fe High School by a 17-year-student armed with a shotgun and a pistol. This is one of the many gun-related tragedies that have happened in the last 2 years.A. killedB. were killedC. have killedD. have been killed【答案】B【解析】考查被动语态。
句意：在圣塔菲高中，一名17岁的学生手持猎枪和一把手枪，在圣塔菲高中杀害了8名学生和2名教师。
8 students and 2 teachers是句子主语，复数形式，和kill之间是被动关系，再根据in the last 2 years.可知这是最近两年发生的与枪有关的事故之一，可知这是在讲过去的事情，所以句子用一般过去时态的被动语态，故答案为B。

Officials at the department of Agriculture said the cattle did not receive proper inspection.The beef recall was the largest in American history, but no cases of sickness have been reported. The beef was produced over the last two years. Almost all of it went to lunches provided for schoolchildren. Some also went to emergency food aid.About half of the beef had already been used when the recall took place. The recall was followed by a video secretly recorded by the Humane Society of the United States. The video showed that some “downers”, the name for sick or injured cows unable to stand, were very poorly treated. The workers kicked them and shot water at their faces. The Agriculture Department forbids downer cattle from entering the food supply, which is part of the measures to prevent the spread of mad cow disease.Westland is closed until investigations are completed, and its deals with the federal government have also stopped temporarily. Local officials have brought animal cruelty charges against two employees and lawmakers in Congress have ordered the head of the company to appear at a hearing this week, saying he refused an earlier investigation.At the end of February, the Humane Society brought a lawsuit against the Agriculture Department over a change in its inspection rules. The group says the change made last year could make it easier for sick and injured cows to enter the food supply.When food recalls are announced, they often include the names of some the stores that were supplies with the products, and the government website has published a list of names, address and phone numbers of thousands of places affected by the beef recall. These include markets, restaurants, hotels and schools.Title: the largest Beef Recall in US History(二)The statement, “You can do anything you put your mind to,” lead us to believe that all you must do is imagine what you’d like to accomplish, set your mind to the task, and wait for success. To a certain degree this is true. Focused intention combined with action is a powerful force. But the statement is misleading because it fails to mention the difficulty and necessity of focusing your mind on a specific goal.Most of us don’t know what we want. We think we do, but we really don’t. We only know what we don’t want. We don’t want a boring job. We don’t want to be poor. We don’t want to disappoint our loved ones.Knowing specifically what you want is much different than knowing what you don’t want. When you only know what you don’t want, your intentions aren’t focused. Consider this example. Pete doesn’t want to be poor. He’s sick of earning less than his friends, and he’s determined to raise his position. To accomplish this goal, Pete could take many different paths. He could train for a paying profession. He could start his own company, go into real estate, or do many other things that would lead to acquiring wealth.But Pete isn’t sure what he wants to do. He doesn’t know which path best fits his skills and personality, so he doesn’t make a decision to follow any particular path.Hoping to answer this question, he investigates a dozen possibilities, but as soon as he runs into adversity(困难) he decides that path isn’t for him and moves on to a new solution.Pete’s actions aren’t focused. Although he works very hard, his efforts don’t build on each other. Rather than building one giant impenetrable(不可进取) sand castle, Pete has built twenty small ones that are easily toppled (倒塌). He ends up confused and discouraged. What’s worse, Pete’s lack of focus leads to failure.What if Pete had chosen a specific path?A set of specific goals is much easier to achieve than a vague ultimate goal like becoming wealthy. Being focused on a path gives Pete a logical set of actions to follow. Each accomplishment is one step closer to the final goal.I think we can all agree that committing to a clearly defined path, regardless of which one, gives Pete the best chance of becoming wealthy.But how can he choose a path if he doesn’t know what he wants? Maybe money isn’t his only goal. Maybe he wants to do something he loves at the same time. Maybe he can’t afford to go back to school. Reality is complicated, and Pete doesn’t want to commit too soon.And that’s why he fails.三：作文（一）2008年春节前夕，一场突如其来的雪灾使南方很多城市交通瘫痪。

AJust as some people think that certain numbers are lucky or unlucky, others believe that we can use numbers to understand our personalities, or predict what will happen to us in the future.Numerology is a way of using numbers to describe a person’s character, and to make predictions about future life events. Numerologists use the numbers 1-9, 11 and 22 — also known as the “master” numbers — to help a person understand his or her personality, life goals, and destiny.Numerologists consider your Life Path number to be the most significant because this number describes your character. To find this number, add together all thenumbers in your date of birth. For example, a person born on April 25, 1985 would add the month (4), to the numbers of the date (2+5), plus the numbers of the birth year (1+9+8+5). In this case the total is 34, so this person’s life path number is 7(3+4). Numerologists believe that people with this number are peaceful and affectionate but can also be very reserved.Your Expression number describes your talents and predicts how you should use these to fulfill your destiny in life. Numerologists assign a number between 1 and 9 to each of the letters in your name. These numbers are then added together in the same way as before to find your Expression number. Numerologists can also do calculations to predict when the most challenging periods of your life will be.Numerologists also believe that the day a person is born is important. Each day of the month has a character description. People born on the fourth are said to be responsible, honest, and stubborn. People born on the fifteenth have very strong attachments to family and home. Those who celebrate their birthday on the thirtieth are artistic, creative, and imaginative, and often make good writers.If we calculate the numerical value of our name and birth date, numerologists believe that we can learn more about our personalities. They also believe that we can predict our destinies, how our lives will progress, and what challenges we may face along the way. To the numerologist, numbers can be used in many more ways than we think.26. If a person was born on November 8, 1995, what is his Life Path number?A. 7B. 8C. 9D. 1127. To understand your abilities and how to use them in your life, you should calculate your ______.A. Life Path numberB. Expression numberC. birthdayD. name and birth date28. According to the passage, a person born on the fifteenth tends to be _______.A. stubbornB. home-lovingC. artisticD. imaginative29. According to the passage, numerologists believe that _________.A. Life Path number can be used to predict a person’s most challenging life periodsB. Expression number is the most meaningful for people to learn a person’s characterC. numbers can help people better understand themselvesD. numbers can be used to change a person’s future30. The function of the passage is __________.A. to raise doubts about the usefulness of numerologyB. to persuade readers about the benefits of the practices it describesC. to describe some of the numerological practices and their purposeD. to tease those who take such beliefs seriouslyBNormally when I pop in to see my parents, my mum bursts out of the house with a big smile. Not today. "Your brother," she says, "he's showered twice this afternoon. Does he know how much it costs to run this house?" Are we limiting water now? I didn't think the recession(萧条) had got that bad. My poor brother is a boomerang kid. Like60 percent of guys immediately after university, he's back at home. Graduating ￡15,000 in debt and faced with unpaid internships(实习期) or low wages thanks to the flooding of the market with graduates, a lot of twentysomethings simply don't have the necessary income or parental support to live independently.Three years after getting their degree, most graduates are still not earning above the average salary. They have a near 50 percent tax burden, thanks to student loan repayments and council tax on top of income tax and national insurance. Unless you have parents who can afford to finance what is effectively a second home for them, returning to the parental nest is often the only affordable option.The boomerang effect is becoming even more pronounced thanks to the recession. One in four of those losing their job during the downturn is under 25. Only 13 percent of final-year students have jobs. Home is the only place many are going: 111,000 16-29 year olds moved back home in 2008, five times the average of previous years.Boomeranging is bad news. It poses serious problems for parents' finances. They've already supported their children through university, topping up loans with handouts, averaging ￡12,300 in total, to keep twentysomethings afloat. Now their retirement savings are being eaten away by continuously dependent children.It’s bad for the returning kids too. Ambitious young people will be left frustrated, seeing their university peers from more wealthy backgrounds excel only because parents' money was there to support them through the initial period of poverty wages. Those living in rural areas are further disadvantaged by lack of access to cities where most new jobs are located. Half of all young people now feel they will not achieve their goals. Research by the Prince's Trust reveals that one-quarter of all 16-25 year olds are regularly down or depressed. And depression does not help self-motivation, the very trait needed to seek out job opportunities.31. In paragraph 1, the mother’s criticizing her son for showering too often shows _________.A. the price of water has increasedB. she thinks her son is selfishC. her son is an economic burdenD. she wants to have a shower herself32. What is the boomerang mentioned in the passage?A. A person earning low income.B. A person who has heavy tax burden.C. A youth who cannot get parental support.D. A youth returning to parents after graduation.33. According to the passage, which of the following does NOT contribute to the tax bill of most young graduates?A. National insurance.B. Income tax.C. Council income.D. Student loans.34. Who is comparatively most affected by the recession according to the passage?A. Those who haven’t completed their university studies.B. Those who are supported through by their parents.C. Those who can have access to the urban facilities.D. Those who were born into the well-off families.35. Which is the best title of the passage?A. Global RecessionB. Boomerang KidsC. Unemployment RateD. Falling IncomesCStudying volcanoes is a demanding profession. Hazel Rymer frequently has to struggle through rainforests, climb to the top of mountains, then climb 200 metres into the crater of active volcanoes. But the 38-year-old volcanologist does her best to make it sound less alarming than it is. “Driving to work is more risky,” she insists. “And the deepest I go into the crater of a volcano is about 300 metres,”she adds, trying to make it all sound as ordinary as taking the dog for a walk.Hazel has been studying volcanoes for a long time, so it’s not surprising she is used to the danger. Her interest in volcanoes began at school. A teacher gave her a book about Pompeii. “I remember reading about the eruption of Vesuvius and the destruction of the city,” she explains. “The thought of all those people just frozen in time had quite an effect on me and I am still excited by their dangerous beauty today.”Nowadays, volcanoes are getting more and more unpredictable. There have been many changes in sea level caused by global warming and melting ice caps. These have resulted in some dormant volcanoes erupting, so studying them is more dangerous than ever before. Hazel says that although she doesn’t take any unnecessary risk she has had some frightening moments. Her worst experience was on the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily, when she was slowly surrounded by lava. “I had a choice of walking ten hours to get around the lava flow or just walking across it,” she explains. She chose to pick a path across the cooler rocks in the lava stream. “I guess it was five metres. The flow was 1,000°C, so if you hesitated your boots would begin to melt. It was scary, but it really was a practical decision --- there wasn't time to do anything else.”And what about the future? “I haven’t been to the volcanoes in Indonesia yet. And I would love to spend some time working in the Antarctic,” she says. “I would also like to know why quiet lava flows erupt from some volcanoes and why other volcanoes go bang.” In other words, Hazel Rymer won’t be exchanging her volcanoes for the relative safety of driving to work just yet.36. Hazel’s claim that “driving to work is more risky” than exploring volcanoes shows that ______.A. people have exaggerated the dangers of volcanoes in the pastB. Hazel does not really understand the dangerous situations she puts herself in.C. there are many bad drivers in the place where Hazel livesD. Hazel is being modest and understating the dangers she faces37. When did Hazel first become interested in volcanoes?A. When she was visiting Italy.B. When she was at school.C. When she was twenty.D. When she saw Vesuvius.38. The underlined word “these” (in paragraph 3) refers to __________.A. melting ice-capsB. volcanic eruptionsC. changes in sea levelD. higher temperatures39. When Hazel was on Mount Etna she had to ________.A. take a dangerous routeB. take an unnecessary riskC. leave her boots behindD. walk for ten hours around the mountain40. In the future, Hazel wants to ________.A. revisit volcanoes she knowsB. go on holiday to the AntarcticC. find a less dangerous jobD. discover new things about volcanoesDAcross the planet there are millions of people who engage in some type of meditation, the practice of concentrating and clearing the mind to bring the body into a state of peace, at least a semi-regular basis. For some, particularly among practitioners of Eastern religions such as Buddhism and Hinduism, this is part and parcel of their religious practice.For others, particularly in Western cultures, meditation tends to be a response to stress. With the world economy approaching meltdown and people worried about their job or their ability to keep their home, it’s a way for people to attain a state of peace of mind and well-being.For those interested in taking up the practice, instruction in meditation for beginners can be found in literally thousands of sources.One of the most popular styles of mediation in the West, with classes offered in most major cities, is called Transcendental Meditation. TM, as it is known among its practitioners, first came to worldwide attention when the Beatles began practicing it in 1967. For direct, guided, personal instruction in meditation for the beginner, TM may be the hallmark.Part of the confusion about how to practice meditation effectively is due to the fact that there are literally hundreds of techniques championed by various groups and individuals. As a general principle, it might be said that all meditation techniques seek to have the practitioner attain a state of consciousness that is different to our ordinary state of awareness. They attempt to train people to clear their minds and achieve a sense of inner peace. It sounds simple enough, but of the huge number of people experiment with meditation, very few are able to maintain its practice over the long haul. In most cases, this is due to frustration over theinability to experience any dramatic, instantly recognizable effects.This is quite a sad state of affairs, that so few these days are willing or equipped to persist in something that doesn’t provide immediate life-changing results. It reflects a culture in which demands for discipline and sustained effort are considered unnecessary or even unfair. It is no surprise therefore that many people abandon their efforts at meditation before they have a chance to bear fruit.But for anyone who does decide to take up this worthwhile practice, please remember. You must clear your mind, relax and “take it as it comes”. Maintain the practice with a sense of discipline and devotion, and eventually benefits of inner peace and calm will be yours.41. The underlined part “part and parcel of” in paragraph 1 is nearest in meaning to ________.A. closely associated withB. very different toC. usually sent fromD. an important element of42. The goal of meditation is ________.A. to clear the mindB. to practice a religionC. to develop a techniqueD. to carry out an experiment43. What can we infer about meditation from the passage?A. It has two main types.B. It is practiced by many famous artists.C. Its benefits are not immediately obvious.D. Most people find it a very good way to relax.44. According to the writer, what has attracted many Western people to meditation practices in recent years?A. Their improved understanding of foreign culture.B. The need to fill in their growing free time.C. Increasing employment instability.D. Migration from countries in which meditation is traditional.45. Who is the probable audience for this article?A. Experienced meditation practitioners.B. People interested in starting to learn meditation.C. Buddhists and Hindus.D. People who are very religious.第二节信息匹配 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。
