I would ban television.I grew up a couch potato. Looking back, it seems I hardly read anything else at all—I watched TV almost seven hours a day.There are so many good reasons for you to be a couch potato. Television is good before-breakfast entertainment. Television is good after-school entertainment. Television is good before-bed entertainment. Everybody watches it, so you have to watch it too in order to talk about it with friends. Otherwise you cannot say a word, which makes you look like an idiot.But when I stopped watching television completely several months ago, I found that I had become a more reflective person, simply because I had more time to think. Television had stopped stuffing its ideas into my head. I was thinking of my childhood,and to my disappointment, I found that it could be summed up adequately in one sentence: “I watched a lot of TV.”And I wasted too much of my youth that I cannot have back. I will never be more imaginative than I was in my childhood.Now I can totally resist the temptation of TV no matter how marvelous the programs are, and I’m entering into a new stage of life. In the meantime, I’d hope that all couc h potatoes would turn off their TV. But I am afraid that with more and more attractive TV programs, I’m not going to be the last person in this country to idle away the best years of life sitting passively in front of a television.6. A couch potato is someone who ______.A. spends much time sitting and watching TVB. plants potatoC. plants potato in the couchD. sits in a couch eating potato7. People watch TV so much because ______.A. television is good before breakfast entertainmentB. television is good after-school entertainmentC. television is good before-bed entertainmentD. All of the above8. According to the passage, people will ______ if they stop watching TV.A. fill themselves with idea on TVB. be more lazy and relaxedC. have more time to thinkD. not look back at their childhood9. Which of the following is NOT true of the author?A. The author had watched television a lot.B. The author had wasted too much of his youth.C. The author will never be more imaginative than he was in his childhood.D. The author is determined to go on watching television.10. The phrase “idle away”(Para.5) probably means “______”.A. spend time in a different wayB. spend time in a relaxed wayC. enter a new stageD. watch televisionPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago，we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country，but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa because they hadnot learned to write.Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people and often songs and dances and stories have beenmade about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call ?remembered history”. Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But if there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.11. Which of the following is NOT suggested in the passage?A. Written history is more reliable.B. Written records play an important role in learning about history.C. A written account of our daily activities helps to answer many questions.. D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.12. Little is known about the central Africa 200 years ago because ______.A. there was nothing worth writing down at that timeB. people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC. people there did not know how to writeD. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire13. “Remembered history”refers to ______.A. history based on a person’s imaginationB. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and dances about the most important events.D. both B and C14. “Remembered history”is regarded as valuable only when ______.A. it is written downB. No written account is availableC. it proves to be timelyD. People are interested in it15. It is suggested that we could have learned more about our past if ancient people had ______.A. kept a written record of every past eventB. burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsD. made more songs and dancesPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.NOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers are developing a pill which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.“Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions,”said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.“This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us avoid the mistakes of the past.“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but they can make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe thos e memories out,”said Rebecca Dresser ,a medical ethicist.16. The drug tested on people can ______.A. help cure brain damageB. stop people remembering bad experiencesC. stop the body producing certain chemicalsD. wipe out the emotional effects of memories17. According to the supporters of the pills, ______.A. the pills might relieve people of troubling memoriesB. the pills could help people avoid mistakesC. taking the pill will do harm to people’s healthD. the pills should be produced in American soon18. The word “they”(Para.6) refers to ______.A. the researchersB. the people on testC. memoriesD. mistakes19. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A. Some memories can ruin people’s lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D. The pill will reduce people’s sufferings from bad memories.20. The passage is mainly about ______.A. an argument about the research on the pillB. a new research on the pillC. a way of deleting painful memoriesD. a new medical inventionPart II Vocabulary and Structure （共40小题，每小题1分，共40分）Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

For the second time in five months, a 23-year-old California woman has been arrested after she crashed her car while driving under the influence (DUI) at the exact same spot north of Lake Tahoe.And to top it off, Truckee Police say that in both cases, her blood alcohol content was more than three times the legal limit.The police say Melissa Dennison of Truckee crashed at about noon on Sunday on Glenshire Drive just south of the Glenshire Bridge. They say she was extremely drunk and had trouble standing or walking. Her blood alcohol level initially was measured at .346. The legal limit is . 08.Sergeant J. Litchie said Dennison also had been charged with a DUI in January when she crashed at the same spot and registered a blood' alcohol level of .380. If found guilty of the second offense, she faces up to 10 years in prison and fines in excess of $2 ,000.A telephone message the Associated Press left at a listing for Dennison in Truckee on Tuesday was not immediately returned.36.

But that is not the case. In many ways the Greeks and the Romans could not have been more diferent.The Greeks were tmuly democratic , often without a single leader but instad govemed by a group of men chosen by the people. The Romans were semi-democratic. They had a governing Senate , but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders. But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic. Theirbuildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples，columns , and decorative forms. The Romans, on the other hand , were moreengineers than artists. They concentrated their efforts on urban planning , well-functioning water pipes, and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar. Both peoples ate very well indeed: lots of fish, fresh vegetables and fruits, healthy meals ，holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.In fact, it would probably be fair to say that they both loved lfe in their warm, sea-oriented climates, and they both lived a full life.40.

S. Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide 20 to 40 pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases. The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed toAmerican soldiers in Europe. Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers. By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home, the American candy bar business was assured. " Why? Because the returming soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same. As a result, from that time on and through the 1920' s, candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States, and as many as 40 ,000 different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston, and New York. The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar , com syrup, and milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48. Why did M. S. Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?——[单选题]A He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.B He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become popular.C There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.D He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at the fair.正确答案：B49、Which event brought the booming of American candy bar business?——[单选题]A The adding of new materials.B The demand in the army during WWI.C The purchase of new machines.D The appearance of smaller candy bars.正确答案：B50、What does the underlined word“seat" in the last paragraph most probably mean?——[单选题]A FocusB PositionC ChairD Center正确答案：D51、What is this passage mainly about?——[单选题]A A World Fair held in Chicago in 1893.B The popularity of the American candy bar industry.C The candy bar industry during World Ward ID The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.正确答案：B52、 Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America ’s much-beloved authors ，creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and a dults alike, such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Prince and The Pauper , and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Twain passed away in 1910, leaving behind a treasure of great literature. But now , 100 years after his death, he' ll have a brand new book on the shelves: a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb: it was his wish that publishers wait until 100 years afer his death to publish his memoirs (自传), which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than 5 ,000 pages, and likely won' t be all sunshine and roses. It seems that Twain habored some biternes against former gnfiends and ex fiends. He also writes negatively about plitins of his day, such as Teddy Roosevlt.It' s likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn' t want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sectiois of the memoirs have been periously published ，the autobiography has never been avilable in full, and should provide great insights into the man behind the Classic books. The first volume of the set will be available in November, and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley.“There are so many bogaphies of Twain, and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography, ”edior Robert Hirst told The Independent.“ But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote. By pubising Twain's book in full we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was."52.

Questions (5’*2=10’)1.What does the management process include?2.Why are some Chinese firms such as Haier and Lenovo rapidly eating into their foreigncounterparts’ market share?IV. Sentence Translation (3’*5=15’)1.China's largest banks have announced plans in recent months to raise tens of billions ofdollars to meet stricter regulatory requirements and replenish capital after a record lending spree last year.2.It is not just the ultrafast video downloads and web surfing that such networks could providefor consumers. Rather, it is the whole range of future economic and technological opportunities — from self-driving cars to smart cities and factories — that they could open up.3.Financial firms, including Goldman Sachs and the Carlyle Group, have also expressedconcern about investment restrictions, saying they could provide a drag on the United States economy.4.Technology companies argue that the restrictive measures the administration is taking to helpprotect them could end up penalizing American manufacturing, raising costs and making their firms less competitive globally.5.Ren Zhengfei, the founder of Huawei, has described shareholders of public companies asgreedy and short-termist, in a forceful rejection of the idea of listing the Chinese telecoms equipment maker.V. Passage Translation (10’)China’s campaign of policy restraint was initiated last fall, with an increase in reserve requirements on bank deposits from 6% to 7% announced in late August and made effective in late September. That measure apparently didn’t work in arresting the rapid growth of the real economy. And so Premier Wen has been quite direct in warning that further forceful measures were beingprepared to stem the excesses of bank lending. True to his word, the People’s bank of China unveiled a second tightening in late March and then a third action in early April. A failure to arrest the excesses of an overheated economy is perceived to be a recipe for the dreaded hard landing. China cannot afford such a dire outcome. It would have serious implications for unemployment and nonperforming bank loans thereby undermining the very reforms that are at the heart of the China Miracle.VI. Reading Comprehension (2’*10=20’)Experiments have shown that in selecting personnel for a job, interviewing is at best a hindrance, and may even cause harm. These studies have disclosed that judgments of interviewers differ markedly and bear little or no relationship to the adequacy of job applicants. Of the many reasons why this should be the case, three in particular stand out. The first reason is related to an error of judgment known as the halo effect（光圈效应）. If a person has one noticeable good trait, their other characteristics will be judged as better than they really are. Thus, an individual who dresses smartly and shows self confidence is likely to be judged capable of doing a job well regardless of his or her real ability.Interviewers are also prejudiced by an effect called the primacy effect（首因效应）. This error occurs when interpretation of later information is distorted by earlier connected information. Hence, in an interview situation, the interviewer spends most of the interview trying to confirm the impression given by the candidate in the first few moments. Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that such an impression is unrelated to the aptitude of the applicant.The phenomenon known as the contrast effect also skews the judgment of interviewers. A suitable candidate may be underestimated because he or she contrasts with a previous one who appears exceptionally intelligent. Likewise, an average candidate who is preceded by one who gives a weak showing may be judged as more suitable than he or she really is.Since interviews as a form of personnel selection have been shown to be inadequate, other selection procedures have been devised which more accurately predict candidate suitability. Of the various tests devised, the predictor which appears to do this most successfully is cognitive ability as measured by a variety of verbal and spatial tests.1. The word “hindrance”in line 2 is closest in meaning to____________.A) encouragementB) assistanceC) procedureD) interference2. According to the passage, the halo effect________________.A) stands out as the worst judgmental errorB) works only when a candidate is well dressed and self confidentC) exemplifies how one good characteristic colors perceptionsD) helps the interviewer's capability to judge real ability3. According to the passage, the impression given in the first few moments______________.A) can easily be alteredB) is the one that stays with the interviewerC) is unrelated to the interviewer's prejudicesD) has never been reinforced throughout the interview4. The author mentions all of the following reasons why interviewing is not an accurate way topredict candidate suitability EXCEPT_____________.A) the halo effectB) the primacy effectC) the contrast effectD) the cognitive effect5. This passage mainly discusses_______________.A) the effects of interviewing on job applicantsB) the inadequacy of interviewing job applicantsC) the judgments of interviewers concerning job applicantsD) the tactics and techniques for judging job applicantsGlobal warming may or may not be the great environmental crisis of the 21st century, but- regardless of whether it is or isn't - we won't do much about it. We will argue over it and may even, as a nation, make some fairly solemn-sounding commitments to avoid it. But the more dramatic and meaningful these commitments seem, the less likely they are to be observed.A1 Gore calls global warming an "inconvenient truth," as if merely recognizing it could put us on a path to a solution. But the real truth is that we don't know enough to relieve global warming, and - without major technological breakthroughs - we can't do much about it.From 2003 to 2050, the world 's population is projected to grow from 6.4 billon to 9.1 billion , a 42% increase. If energy use per person and technology remain the same, total energy use and greenhouse gas emissions (mainly,CO2) will be 42% higher in 2050. But that's too low, because societies that grow richer use more energy. We need economic growth unless we condemn the world's poor to their present.Poverty and freeze everyone else's living standards. With modest growth, energy use and greenhouse emissions more then double by 2050.No government will adopt rigid restrictions on economic growth and personal freedom (limits on electricity usage, driving and travel) that might cut back global warming. Still, politicians want to show they're "doing something " Consider the Kyoto Protocol(京都议定书). It allowed countries that joined to punish those that didn't. But it hasn't reduced CO2 emissions(up about 25% since 1990),and many signatories(签字国) didn't adopt tough enough policies to hit their 2008-2012 targets.The practical conclusion is that if global warming is a potential disaster, the only solution is new technology. Only an aggressive research and development program might find ways of breaking our dependence on fossil fuels or dealing with it.The trouble with the global warming debate is that it has become a moral problem when it's really an engineering one. The inconvenient truth is that if we don't solve the engineering problem, we're helpless.6. What is said about global warming in the first paragraph?A) It may not prove an environmental crisis at all.B) It is an issue requiring worldwide commitments.C) Serious steps have been taken to avoid or stop it.D) Very little will be done to bring it under control.7. According to the author's understanding, what is A1 Gore's view on global warming?A) It is a reality both people and politicians are unaware of.B) It is a phenomenon that causes us many inconveniences.C) It is a problem that can be solved once it is recognized.D) It is an area we actually have little knowledge about.8. Greenhouse emissions will more than double by 2050 because of ___.A) economic growthB) wasteful use of energyC) the widening gap between the rich and poorD) the rapid advances of science and technology9. The author believes that, since the signing of the Kyoto Protocol, ____.A) politicians have started to do something to better the situationB) few nations have adopted real tough measures to limit energy useC) reductions in energy consumption have greatly cut back global warmingD) international cooperation has contributed to solving envoronmental problems10. What is the message the author intends to convey?A) Global warming is more of a moral issue than a practical one.B) The ultimate solution to global warming lies in new technology.C) The debate over global warming will lead to technological breakthroughs.D) People have to give up certain material comforts to stop global warming.。

They want to bring waterinto desserts so that people can live and grow food. Even so,more and more of the earth is becoming desert all the time.Why? Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing bad things to the earth.Some places on the earth do not get very much rain.Yet,they still do not become deserts.This is because there are some small green plants growing there.Plants help keep water in the earth.Plants do not let the wind blow the dirt away.Without plants,the land can become a desert much more easily.A man decides to make a farm in a very dry place.He digs in the earth and takes away the grass and plants that are already growing on the dry land.He makes a farm.He puts plants in rows.The sun is very hot.It makes the land even drier.When the rain comes,it runs between the rows of plants.It washes the good dirt away.When the wind comes, it blows between the rows of the plants.It blows the good dirt away.Soon the land is not good enough for a farm any more.The man lets his animals eat all the plants on it.Now the land does not have any plants on it.The sun and wind dry the land and all of the good dirt away.Now the land is a desert. 锛堝垎鏁帮細10锛?/p>(1).A desert is probably______. 锛堝垎鏁帮細2锛?/p>A.grassB.treeless 鈭?/span>C.wetD.muddy瑙ｆ瀽锛?/div>(2)nd is becoming desert because of lack of______. 锛堝垎鏁帮細2锛?/p>A.rainB.windC.peopleD.plants 鈭?/span>瑙ｆ瀽锛?/div>(3).Which of the following is NOT the reason why small green plants are very important to dry places? 锛堝垎鏁帮細2锛?/p>A.They keep the earth from becoming even drierB.They do not let wind blow the earth awayC.They add color to the dry places 鈭?/span>D.They hold water瑙ｆ瀽锛?/div>(4).It can be inferred from the passage that______ . 锛堝垎鏁帮細2锛?/p>A.it is bad to plant in rows in a dry place 鈭?/span>B.it is better to raise animals on dry land than to make a farmC.it is bad to make a farm in a dry place,but it is good to raise animals thereD.all lands that don鈥檛 get very ran are deserts`瑙ｆ瀽锛?/div>(5).What’s the purpose of the writer to give an example of the man?______.锛堝垎鏁帮細2锛?/p>A.To criticize himB.To tell an interesting storyC.To prove that man makes deserts 鈭?/span>D.To prove the hot sun makes a desert瑙ｆ瀽锛?/div>Passage TwoThere are some people who actually enjoy work--in fact,they love to work. They spend many extra hours on the job each work and often take work home with them. These workaholics are as addicted to their jobs as other people are to drugs or alcohol.In some city centers, workaholism is so common that people do not consider it unusual. they accept the lifestyle as normal.Workaholism can be a serious problem. Because true workaholics would rather work than do anything else, they probably don’t know how to relax; that is ,they might not enjoy movies,sports,or other types of entertainment. Most of all, they hate to sit and do nothing. The lives of workaholics are usually stressful,and this stress can cause health problems. In addition, typical workaholics don’t pay much attention to their families. They spend little time with their children,and marriages may end.Is workaholism always dangerous? Perhaps not.There are ,certainly,people who work well under stress.Some studies show that many workaholics have great energy and interest in life.Their work so pleasurable that they are actually very happy. For most workaholics,work and entertainment are the same thing. Their jobs provide them with a challenge; this keeps them busy and creative. Other people retire from work at age sixty-five,but workaholicsusually prefer not to quit.They are still interested in work-and life-in their eighties and nineties.。
