The combination of friendly people and splendid visual culture has made Bali number one tourist attraction.Why it's so great: you won't be the only solo traveler in Bali.

A.valuable B.rareC.infrequent D.missing2.What is putting pressure on the local supply of clean water?A.Dust from the road is making the water dirtier.B.There are too many taps accessing the water.C.The population of the area is growing fast.D.The coming summer will dry up rivers and lakes.3.What is the most serious limitation on Laos’ economic growth?A.The lack of local skilled workers.B.A poor transportation system.C.Too much foreign aid.D.Too many foreign workers.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.Laos:small steps forward. B.Laos:slowdeveloping nationsC.Laos:leastdeveloped land D.Laos:landlocked countryB(2014·吉林省长春市高中毕业班第一次调研测试)Europe is home to a variety of cultural treasures.Lonely Planet,the world’s largest travel guide publisher,has offered pairs of cities for culturehungry but timepoor travelers.London and ParisIt takes you about two hours to travel from London to Paris by Eurostar,a highspeed railway service.The two capital cities have been competing in fashion,art and nightlife for decades—but each secretly looks up to the other.No one can doubt the grand and impressive be auty of Paris’ Louvre Museum,but if you want t o save money,you cannot skip the British Museum free to pared with London,Paris has more outdoor attractions such as the beautiful green walkway La Promenade Plantee.In Paris,you’ll see diners linger over red wine.While in London,you can try some afternoon tea,eat fish and chips or salted cake.Vienna and BratislavaAustrian capital Vienna and Slovakia city Bratislava are an hour apart by train.But since they are linked by the Danube River,the best way to travel is by ship.A tour of the two cities is the perfect way to experience everything from 17th century’s Habsburg dynasty splendor to scifi restaurants.Vienna is famous for Mozart and imperial palaces.You can appreciate the perfect blending of architecture and nature in the grand Schonbrunn Palace,and reward yourself with a cup of Vienna coffee,which has made its way to the world’s cultural heritage list.Bratislava is best known for its fine dining—the remarkable UFO restaurant.You can enjo y a meatladen dinner here in an amazing setting.5.What’s the relationship be tween London and Paris according to the text ?

Unit 2 The United KingdomⅠ.阅读理解ABring any group of business owners or managers together,ask them the best way to promote their organizations,and you'll get different answers.That comes as no surprise.When it comes to promoting a business,trying to find the single choice is rarely wise.You'll see business owners and managers try radio advertising.When that doesn't produce the results they want,they'll change to sending direct mail.When that doesn't create a jump in sales,they'll buy TV commercials.When that falls short of their expectations,they'll try a new online strategy...and it goes on and on.For most companies,the best approach is a mix of different channels,organized in ways that allow each to build upon the others.The channel that will work best in a given situation depends on a lot of factors,including the company itself,its audience,the message being conveyed,the environment,and many more.Just that radio worked well for a company's last effort doesn't mean that TV advertising wouldn't be a better choice this time.Or maybe the right channel is direct mail.There's no simple answer,because there are so many variables. If your audience is broad,then maybe radio or newspaper advertising is the right choice.If you're targeting a carefully defined group, such as former customers,direct mail or email will probably perform better.There are two important lessons here.The first is not to concentrate on trying to find a single channel that will s erve all of the company's needs,because it just does n't exist.The second lesson is that before you spend the first dollar to promote your business,you need to do more than a little learning.You'll really need to understand your customers,your marketplace,your competitors,and the environments in which you do business.And you need a good understanding of what makes one marketing channel right for one situation,but not another.[语篇解读] 本文为一篇说明文。

A.valuable B.rareC.infrequent D.missing2.What is putting pressure on the local supply of clean water?A.Dust from the road is making the water dirtier.B.There are too many taps accessing the water.C.The population of the area is growing fast.D.The coming summer will dry up rivers and lakes.3.What is the most serious limitation on Laos’ economic growth?A.The lack of local skilled workers.B.A poor transportation system.C.Too much foreign aid.D.Too many foreign workers.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.Laos:small steps forward. B.Laos:slowdeveloping nationsC.Laos:leastdeveloped land D.Laos:landlocked countryB(2014·吉林省长春市高中毕业班第一次调研测试)Europe is home to a variety of cultural treasures.Lonely Planet,the world’s largest travel guide publisher,has offered pairs of cities for culturehungry but timepoor travelers.London and ParisIt takes you about two hours to travel from London to Paris by Eurostar,a highspeed railway service.The two capital cities have been competing in fashion,art and nightlife for decades—but each secretly looks up to the other.No one can doubt the grand and impressive be auty of Paris’ Louvre Museum,but if you want t o save money,you cannot skip the British Museum free to pared with London,Paris has more outdoor attractions such as the beautiful green walkway La Promenade Plantee.In Paris,you’ll see diners linger over red wine.While in London,you can try some afternoon tea,eat fish and chips or salted cake.Vienna and BratislavaAustrian capital Vienna and Slovakia city Bratislava are an hour apart by train.But since they are linked by the Danube River,the best way to travel is by ship.A tour of the two cities is the perfect way to experience everything from 17th century’s Habsburg dynasty splendor to scifi restaurants.Vienna is famous for Mozart and imperial palaces.You can appreciate the perfect blending of architecture and nature in the grand Schonbrunn Palace,and reward yourself with a cup of Vienna coffee,which has made its way to the world’s cultural heritage list.Bratislava is best known for its fine dining—the remarkable UFO restaurant.You can enjo y a meatladen dinner here in an amazing setting.5.What’s the relationship be tween London and Paris according to the text ?

Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historicists. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “The Old Trip to Jerusalem”,which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub's landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.That's how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the creditcrunch(信贷紧缩) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business. People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned (禁止) smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.This decline(衰退) is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 11 p.m. Previously, with 11 p.m. as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slo wly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”,and it causes long-term health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Men's Clubs”,meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.1.The passage mainly tells us something about ________.A.the long history of British pubsB.the decline of British pubsC.the past and present of British pubsD.the importance of British pubs2.Which may not be the cause of the decline of British pubs?A.The credit crunch.B.The present closing time.C.The ban of smoking. D.Having no spare money.3.We can infer from the passage that ________.A.binge drinking means drinking less beerB.British people used to like drinking slowlyC.closing the pubs early will reduce social problemsD.British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking4.We can see from the last Paragraph that the author ______.A.holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubsB.is against the admission of too many women to the pubsC.thinks that women in the pubs will cause less social problemsD.thinks that British pubs should offer everything you needⅢ.七选五If you're looking for a challenging situation to practice your English, pick up the phone. Not being able to see the other person and the body language can make the chatting difficult. __1__ Here are some tips to guide you through an average phone conversation in English.1.GreetingsEvery phone call should begin with a polite gree ting such as “Hi, how've you been?” or “Nice to hear from you”. Even if you're calling a business contact for a specific purpose, it'd be rude to jump right into business. __2__2.Getting to the pointThere always comes the point where you want to move on from friendly chatting and get down to business. What should you do in this situation? __3__ However, if you are waiting to find out why someone called you, you can guide the conversation by saying “So what can I do for you?”3.Interrupting without offenceSometimes you may happen to be speaking with a very talkative person. __4__ Keep in mind when you'd like to interrupt, be sure to do it politely. For example, begin with “I'd like to say something here”.4.Closing the callThis can be the trickiest part of the conversation! It may be the time to offer good wishes if it's appropriate. __5__ Sometimes it's easiest to just say you enjoyed speaking to the other person. Also remember cleverly saying the word well at the beginning of a sentence can indicate you're ready to end the conversation.A.Use the phrase “I'm just calling to...” to change to the topic at hand.B.Additionally, you may want to confirm any plans you've made.C.You should make a little small talk at the beginning.D.You'd better greet him or her in a friendly way.E.So it may be difficult to get a word in.F.Practice English through phone calls.G.Never fear, though!Ⅳ.语法填空阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Unit 2 The United KingdomⅠ.阅读理解ABring any group of business owners or managers together,ask them the best way to promote their organizations,and you'll get different answers.That comes as no surprise.When it comes to promoting a business,trying to find the single choice is rarely wise.You'll see business owners and managers try radio advertising.When that doesn't produce the results they want,they'll change to sending direct mail.When that doesn't create a jump in sales,they'll buy TV commercials.When that falls short of their expectations,they'll try a new online strategy...and it goes on and on.For most companies,the best approach is a mix of different channels,organized in ways that allow each to build upon the others.The channel that will work best in a given situation depends on a lot of factors,including the company itself,its audience,the message being conveyed,the environment,and many more.Just that radio worked well for a company's last effort doesn't mean that TV advertising wouldn't be a better choice this time.Or maybe the right channel is direct mail.There's no simple answer,because there are so many variables. If your audience is broad,then maybe radio or newspaper advertising is the right choice.If you're targeting a carefully defined group, such as former customers,direct mail or email will probably perform better.There are two important lessons here.The first is not to concentrate on trying to find a single channel that will s erve all of the company's needs,because it just does n't exist.The second lesson is that before you spend the first dollar to promote your business,you need to do more than a little learning.You'll really need to understand your customers,your marketplace,your competitors,and the environments in which you do business.And you need a good understanding of what makes one marketing channel right for one situation,but not another.[语篇解读] 本文为一篇说明文。

答案:DBCrying is the sign of the rawest of human emotions.We cry when we can't hold inside what we feel any more.We cry when we're at our best,and when we're at our worst.By the way,I mean all of us.Men included.But we never see other men cry.In no western culture has it ever been acceptable for men to shed (流泪) more than a single tear,and even then it's reserved for grand victories,defeats and deaths.Dutch research suggests that women cry between three and five times more than men.Generally men and w omen cry over the samethings—deaths,,primarily,but researchers believe that men cry more often than women when it comes to positive events.I want to admit I'm a bit of a cryer.However,having never really experienced deaths in my life,a few weeks ago I experienced what it means to really,truly,pour my heart out in tears.See,my dog—and 24/7 companion—was killed by a car right outside my house.Being a witness to this painful event left me in shock for a good hour,but then the floodgates opened.Over the next 48 hours,I might have cried 20 times.Once or twice I crouched(蹲) on the floor with my head in my hands and tears were the only outlet.It is suggested in the book Adult Crying:A Biopsychosocial Approach that there's certain pleasure in crying.It helps ease stress when there is no other way to express ourselves.In those days after my dog's death,I remember thinking,“I've got to stop this crying”.It felt unmanly.It felt like a sign of weakness.I've since realised that tears are for everybody;they'r,allow us to get rid of stress and just feel.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。
