Its lead author ED Diener analyzed long-term studies of human subjects, experimental human trials, and studies that evaluate the health status of people stressed by natural events.“We reviewed eight different types of studies,”Diener said. “And the general conclusion from each type of study is that your subjective well-being---that is, feeling positive about your life, not stressed out, not depressed---contributes to both long life and better health among healthy populations.”A study that followed nearly 5,000 university students for more than 40 years, for example, found that those who were most pessimistic as students tended to die younger than their peers. An even longer-term study that followed 180 Catholic nuns from early adulthood to old age found that those who wrote positive accounts of their lives in their early 20s tended to live longer than those who wrote more negative ones.There were a few exceptions, but most of long-term studies the researchers reviewed found that anxiety, depression, a lack of enjoyment of daily activities and pessimism are all associated with higher rates of disease and a shorter life.While happiness might not by itself prevent or cure disease, posive emotions and enjoyment of life do contribute to better health and a longer life, Diener said.“Happiness is no magic bullet,”he said. “But the evidence is clear and compelling that it changes your chances of getting disease or dying young.”21. The word “compelling” (Paragraph 1) means “_______”.A. directB. convincingC. adequateD. conclusive22. According to Paragraph 2, Ed Diener .A. studied the health conditions of the subjectsB. conducted experimental human trialsC. made long-term studies of human subjectsD. review other researchers’ studies23. According to the studies on university students and Catholic nuns, who are more likely to livelonger?A. Well-educated people.B. Optimistic people.C. Open-minded people.D. Religious people.24. What is NOT mentioned as relevant to a shorter life?A. Depression and anxiety.B. Lack of enjoyment.C. Constant lack of sleep.D. Stress and pessimism.25.By saying that “Happiness is no magic bullet”(Paragraph 7), Diener means thathappiness .A. is not ever lastingB. is not easy to obtainC. is not a good treatment of diseasesD. is not a guarantee of health and long lifePassage ThreeCold weather has a great effect on how our minds and our bodies work. Maybe that is why there are so many expressions that use the word “cold”. For centuries the body’s blood has been linked closely with emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, for example, are said to be cold blooded.Cold-blooded people act in cruel ways. They may do brutal things to others and not by accident. For example, a newspaper says the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. The killer murdered someone not in self-defense or because he was reacting to anger or fear. He seemed to kill for no reason and with no emotion as if taking someone’s life meant nothing.Cold can affect other parts of the body, the feet, for example. Heavy socks can warm your feet if your feet are really cold. But there is an expression “to get cold feet” that has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agreed to be president of an organization, but then you learned that all the other officers have resigned. All the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional andshows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone else. Someone who is a cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone else. Someone who is a cold fish could be cold hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy. Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who without feeling broke the hearts of their lovers.“Out in the cold” means not getting something that everybody else has got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise that he was left out in the cold and it is not a pleasant place to be in.26. The focus of the passage is .A. the meanings of expressions with “cold”B. the influence of cold weather on our mind and bodyC. why people are unhappy with cold weatherD. how some people become cold blooded27. A cold-blooded killer may take the life of another person .A. by accidentB. for no reasonC. out of fearD. in self-defense28. If a person “gets cold feet”, he or she may feel a little .A. angryB. puzzledC. disappointedD. frightened29. A cold fish is a person who _______.A. is indifferent to others’ sufferingsB. tends to turn down others’ helpC. remains cool in emergencyD. prefers to stay all alone30. Which of the following expressions may mean “unlucky”?A. Cold face.B. Cold feet.C. Cold heart.D. Out in the cold.Passage FourThe New York Times has reported on a problem that many of us have but are not aware of—Internet addiction. According to reporter Tara Parker-Pope, millions of us are addicted to being online. She says this is a growing problem that is making us more forgetful and impatient. Ms Parker-Pope writes about various reports highlighting how technology is changing people. In one, she quotes cyber-psychologist Dr. Elias Aboujaode who says: “More and more, life is resembling the chat room.”He said we are living in “virtual lifestyles”, which is negatively affecting our real-life relationships. Nicki Dowling, a clinical psychologist from Melbourne University in Australia, concluded in a recent study that ten per cent of young people had what she called “Internet dependence”.Tara Parker-Pope quizzed experts in this field on what the signs of being overly absorbed in technology are. She came up with seven signs of “tech overload”. The first is whether you check your e-mail before doing other things. Another sign is if you always look forward to your next online visit —a sure sign of dependence and addiction. The third point is if you say, “just a fewmore minutes” when someone wants you. Parker-Pope found one’s communication with others also says a lot about how important the Internet is compared with family and friends; do you lie about how much time you spend online or choose to surf the Internet instead of going out with others? Other indicators include the “online lift”that stops you being unhappy, and others’complaints about you always being online.31. Which of the following can be the title of this passage?A. Internet AddictionB. Virtual LifestylesC. Indicators of Net DependenceD. Importance of the Internet32. According to Tara Parker-Pope, millions of people .A. have realized the problem of Internet addictionB. cannot get rid of their habit of staying onlineC. have become more patient and careful onlineD. welcome the changes brought about by technology33. What does Dr. Elias Aboujaode think of the virtual lifestyles that we are living in?A. They make people eager to talk to each other.B. They make people more dependent on the Internet.C. They have a negative effect on real-life relationships.D. They get more people interested in online studies.34. Which of the following is NOT a sign of Internet addiction?A. Checking e-mail before doing anything else.B. Expecting all the time the next online visit.C. Surfing the Net instead of going out with others.D. Arriving late for important appointments.35. What does “tech overload” (Paragraph 2) mean in the passage?A. Over-absorption in the Internet.B. Over-dependence on e-mail.C. Over-interest in technology.D. Over-interaction with friends.PART III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions : There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choic es marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1Question 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:Censorship (审查制度) is for the good of society as a whole. Imagine what chaos there would be if we lived in a society without laws. Like the law, censo rship contributes to the common good.Some people think that it is disgraceful that a censor should interfere wi th works of art. Who is this person, they say, to ban this great book or cut th at great film? No one can set himself up as a superior being. But we must remem ber two things. Firstly, where genuine works of art are concerned, modern censo rs are extremely liberal in their views----often far more liberal than a large section of the public. Artistic merit is something which censors clearly recogn ize. And secondly, we must bear in mind that the great proportion of books, pla ys and films which come before the censor are very far from being "works of art ".When discussing censorship, therefore, we should not confine our attention to great masterpieces, but should consider the vast numbers of publications an d films which make up the bulk (大部分) of the entertainment industry. When cen sorship laws are relaxed, dishonest people are given a licence to produce virtu ally anything in the name of "art". There is an increasing tendency to equate " artistic" with "pornographic" (色情的).So one of the great things that censorsh ip does is to prevent certain people from making fat profits by corrupting the minds of others. Society would really be poorer if it deprived itself of the wi se counsel and the restraining influence which a censor provides.51.A censor's duty is ____.A) to see there is no filthy content in publications or filmsB) to ban books and cut filmsC) to distinguish works of art from othersD) to make sure that no licence is given to dishonest people52.Some people are against censorship for the reason that ____.A) censorship is not consistent with the ideals of democracyB) censors prevent people from making profitsC) censors are conservative and cannot appreciate artistic meritD) censorship limits the way people feel and think53.When the writer says "to equate 'artistic' which 'pornographic', he mea ns ____.A) there is no clear distinction between what is artistic and what is porn ographicB) masterpieces are sometimes offensive to decencyC) many pornographic works will be published in the name of artD) artistic works and pornographic works have the same market value54.According to the writer, a society free from censorship ____.A) would be poor materiallyB) would expose its people to dangers of being corruptedC) could not develop its entertainment industryD) would allow only a small section of people to make profits55.All the following are the writer's views except that ____.A) censors are fully qualified for their jobB) masterpieces even with pornographic content are still masterpiecesC) society will not do without censorshipD) many books, plays and films are not works of artPassage 2Question 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:A few weeks ago I was talking to a school inspector in one of the more fas hionable districts of Paris. She astonished me by saying that if she had young children today, she'd probably send them to a private school. She had devoted 2 5 years of her life to the ideal of free public education, she said, but the tr uth was the state system was in a mess.There are two main problems: State schools in France have to accept whatev er teachers are assigned to them by the Ministry of Education. As my school ins pector friend put it, "one year a school may be excellent; three or four years later, half the teachers may be incapable!" That is not very reassuring if you' re a parent. Private schools can choose their own teachers.The other problem is discipline or, rather, the lack of it. Not long ago a school in Birmingham made headlines in Britain because the teachers were beingterrorized by their pupils. In the desolate suburbs of low-cost apartment bloc ks, thrown together in the 1960s on the outskirts of most big French cities, su ch stories are commonplace. Vandalism(破坏他人财产的行为), drug-taking and exto rtion aren't limited to schools in poor areas either. A recent poll found that 88 per cent of French children rate as the biggest problem of their school live s the prevalence (流行, 猖獗)of factions and gangs which spend all their time f ighting one another. Small wonder, then, that the private schools, with their e mphasis on traditional values, are undergoing a new surge of popularity (despit e disapproval from France's new socialist leaders), and competition to get into the best of them has now become intense.56.The French school inspector has long been a supporter of ____.A) compulsory education B) free private educationC) private schools D) the state school system57.The French state education system ____.A) does not guarantee the competence of teachersB) seems to have no serious difficultiesC) is running smoothlyD) promises to maintain high standards58.Private schools in France today ____.A) are generally undergoing changes for the worseB) enjoy the prestige(声望) of becoming the place to send one's children t oC) have become victims of vandalismD) never hire teachers who stress traditional valuesck of discipline among students is rampant in state schools ____.A) in the Paris slums, but not in other areasB) noticeably and solely in the poorer areas in French citiesC) almost everywhere in FranceD) rather restricted to Birmingham60.France children who wish to go to the best private schools can do so by ____.A) taking highly competitive examinations B) simply sending in application sC) joining factions and gangs D) drawing lotsPart Ⅲ Cloze ( 10 points, 15 minutes )Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank t here are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should choose the One that the best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answe r Sheet with a single line through the cettre.Today vegetables, fish, fruit, meat and beer are canned in enormous quanti ties. Within three generations the 81 habits of millions have been revolutioniz ed. Foods that were previously 82 may now be eaten at any time, and strange foo ds are 83 far from the countries where they are 84 . The crops many farmers now produce often depend on the nearness of a canning factory.The first stage in the canning 85 is the preparation of the raw food. Dise ased and waste portions are thrown 86 ; meat and fish are cleaned and trimmed; fruit and vegetables washed and graded for 87 . The jobs are principally 88 by machine.The next stage, for vegetables only, is soak in very 89 or boiling water f or a short time to remove air and 90 the vegetable. This makes 91 easier to pac k into cans for sterilization (free from living germs).Some packing machines fi ll 92 to 400 cans a minute. Fruit, fish and meat are packed raw and cold into c ans, and then all the air is removed. 93 the cans are sealed, the pressure insi de each can is only about half the pressure of the outside air.The sterilization process which follows the cans are subjected 94 steam or boiling water, with the temperature and time 95 according to the type of food. Cans of fruit, for example, 96 only 5-10 minutes in boiling water, 97 meat and fish are cooked at higher temperatures for 98 period. After sterilization, the cans are cooled quickly to 32 degree to prevent the contents 99 becoming too s oft.The final stage before sending off to the grocer is labeling, and packing the tins into boxes. Nowadays, however, labeling is often printed on in 100 by the can-maker and no paper labels are then required.81.A) eat B) eatable C) eaten D) eating82.A) monthly B) year-round C) seasonal D) quarterly83.A) accessible B) obtained C) available D) usable84.A) planting B) grown C) growing D) producing85.A) process B) reaction C) procession D) program86.A) about B) away C) down D) up87.A) size B) length C) height D) breadth88.A) had B) fulfilled C) pocked D) done89.A) chilly B) cold C) hot D) freezing90.A) soften B) cook C) steam D) harden91.A) them B) it C) us D) that92.A) up B) down C) in D) on93.A) When B) If C) Although D) Before94.A) on B) to C) in D) at95.A) varies B) vary C) varied D) varying96.A) cost B) spend C) take D) consume97.A) as B) because C) while D) for98.A) less B) longer C) shorter D) more99.A) off B) through C) by D) from100.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.(76)I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there\'s a big difference between "being a writer\' and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. "You\'ve got to want to write," I say to them, "not want to be a writer".The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance(自由栏目)writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartmentbuilding. It didn\'t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn't gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn't going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if ? (77 )I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.1. The passage is meant to ______.A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writerC. show young people it\'s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fameD. encourage young people to pursue a writing career2. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.B. A writer\'s success depends on luck rather than on efforts.C. Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D. The chances for writer to become successful are small3. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A. He wasn\'t able to produce a single book.B. He hadn\'t seen aching for the better.C. He wasn\'t able to have a rest for a whole year.D. He though that he lacked imagination.4. "…people who die wondering: What if ?"(Lin4-5, Para-3) refers to "those _____".A. who think too much of the dark side of lifeB. who regret giving up their career halfwayC. who think a lot without making a decisionD. who are full of imagination even upon death5. "Shadowland" in the last sentence refers to _____.A. the wonderland on often dreams aboutB. the bright future that one is looking forward toC. the state of uncertainty before one\'s final goal is reachedD. a world that exists only in one\'s imaginationPassage 2uestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Toady, experts believe that nearly two-thirds of the world\'s population live within eighty kilometers of the seacoast.(78)In the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man\'s needs in the future.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man\'s technology are impressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, copper and so on exist on the ocean floor.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. For example, warm temperature of the ocean can be used as the steam in a steamship. Sea may also offer a source of energy as electricity for mankind.Technology is enabling man to explore even deeper under the sea. It is obvious that the technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. (79)By the 2050, experts believe that the problems to explore the food, minerals and energy resources of the sea will have been largel7y solved.6. What is the beat title for the passage?A. Needs of Man.B. Sea Harvest and FoodC. Sea and Sources of EnergyD. Sea Exploring Technology.7. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. man hasn\'t completely made use of the riches of the seaB. technology for exploring the sea has been solvedC. harvesting rice in the sea will be made possibleD. in the near future man can live on the ocean floor8. Why does the author mention a steamship?A. To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy from the sea.B. To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ships.C. To argue that man should use steamships.D. To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.9. According to the author, technology is important because ______.A. resources on land are running short in ten yearsB. man can use it to explore the deeper seaC. it is a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancient people used it to explore the sea10. According to the author, when will the problems to explore the deeper sea largely be solved?A. In the next generation.B. By the end of the 20th century.C. In the near future.D. By the middle of the 21st century.Passage 3estions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Today, cigarette smoking is a common habit. About forty-three percent of the adult men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly. It is encouraging to see that millions of people have given up smoking.It is a fact that men as a group smoke more than women. Among both men and women the age group with the highest proportion of smokers is 24-44.Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person\'s smoking habit. City people smoke more than people living on farms. Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. On the other hand, if a well-educated man with a higher income smoked at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.The situation is somewhat different for women.(80)There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family income and higher education than among the lower income and lower educational groups. These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.Among teenagers the picture is similar. There are fewer teenaged smokers from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas. Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of their parents smoke.11. What do we know from the first paragraph ?A. More and more people take up the habit of smoking.B. There are more smoking women than smoking men in USA.C. It is good news that more people have given up smoking.D. The U.S. has more smoking people than any other country.12.What factors determine a person\'s smoking habits ?A. Age, income and education.B. Age, sex and income.C. Occupation, income and sex.D. Occupation, income and education.13.Which of the following is true according to the passage ?A. City people are less likely to smoke.B. People in rural areas are more likely to smoke.C. Men with higher income tend to smoke.D. Well-educated men with high incomes are generally less likely to smoke.14.What is the smoking situation for women ?A. The situation is quite the same for women as for men .B. Better-educated women are likely to smoke heavily.C. There are more women smokers with low incomes.D. Women with higher incomes and higher education do not tend to smoke.15.What can we say about teenaged smokers ?A. The picture about the teenage smokers is similar to that of women smokers.B. The situation among teenagers is quite the same with men.C. High school students are more likely to smoke than college students.D. Farmers\' children tend to smoke more.Part Ⅲ Identification (10%)Directions: Each of the following sentences has four underlined parts marked A, B, C and D. Identify the one that is not correct.
