Each passage is followed by some questions orunfinished statements. Choose the, best answer and mark the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneMany a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, butI also explain that there's a big difference between beinga writer and writing. In most cases theseindividuals are dreaming of wealth and fame,not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You’vegot 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 writerkissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer, I had no prospects at all.What I did have was a friend who found for me my room in a New York apartment building. Itdidn't even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manualtypewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn't got a break and began to doubt myself. It was sohard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamedabout it for years. I wasn't going to be one of those people who died wondering. What if I wouldkeep putting my dream to test (even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure).This is the shadow-land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.51. The passage is meant to _______ .A) warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB) encourage young people to pursue a writing careerC) show young people it is unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealthD) advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professionalwriter52. What can be concluded from the passage?A) Awriter’s success depends on luck rather than on effort.B) Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.C) Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D) The chances for writers to become successful are small.53. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A) He found his dream would never come true.B) He hadn't seen a change for the better.C) He wasn't able to have a rest for a whole year.D) He was not able to produce a single book.54. In Line 13“...people who died wondering”,“who” refers to those .A) who think a lot without making a decisionB) who regret giving up their career halfwayC) who think too much of the dark side of lifeD) who are full of imagination even upon deathPassage TwoStudents can travel in the United States without spending too much money if they followthese suggestions.A travel agent can give you information on special economy fares for trains, buses andplanes. Think about hiking or biking for a part of yourtrip, too. You‘ll not only save money, butyou'll also see a lot more of the country.Some students may want to travel by car. Be sure to think about going with otherstudents —many colleges have '‘ride boards” that list when and where other students plan totravel. Many radio stations provide the same, sort of service —they announce who’s drivingwhere, when, how many riders they will take and what the expenses will be.There are many inexpensive, older hotels near bus or train stations. Check your travelguide for names of the best. Many parts of the country also have youth hostels where youngpeople can stay for only a few dollars a night.You don't have to eat in restaurants all the time, but we don’t recommend a diet of candyand cola, either. You can usually get a healthy, cheap breakfast in a restaurant. If the weather iswarm, you can buy food in supermarkets or at roadside stands and have a picnic for lunch. Fordinner you can get the names of good, cheap restaurants from travel guides or friends.55. The passage tells students ______ .A) how to get help while travelingB) how to make travel plansC) how to use less money while travelingD) how to choose hotels56.

To save money, you can _______ .A) eat in restaurants sometimes B) invite your friends for a picnic C) take some food with you D) have more candy and colaPassage ThreeEmily Dickinson was a nineteenth-century American woman who lived her lifecompletely unknown to anyone except her family and a few friends. Less than a dozen of herpoems were published during her lifetime. In spite of this, she is regarded today as a great poet,perhaps the greatest poet the United States has produced. Along with the Greek poet Sappho, shemay be one of the two greatest women poets who have ever lived.Dickinson was born on December 10, 1830, in a small Massachusetts town calledAmherst. Hers was an old family; her ancestors had come to the United States 200 years before.Her parents were not really rich, but they were certainly not poor. She had an older brother,Austin,and a younger sister, Lavinia. Her parents seem to have been rather withdrawn people, and themembers of the family spent a good deal of time by themselves. She doesn’t seem to have likedher mother very much. She spoke once of never really having a mother.She was educated at the local Amherst Academy and Mount Holyoke Women’s Seminary.Although she was sometimes described as pretty, shenever married. In all outward respects, herlife appeared to be rather boring.The time and place in which she lived was not a good one for a woman artist to succeed.Women are expected to be obedient to men and to remain in their place at home. Rather thanwaste her life in the meaningless round of social events that were open to women, she decided atsome point to retreat from the world in order to write her poetry. From then on, she spent a greatdeal oftime in her bedroom writing. In later years when she was standing in front of her bedroomdoor, she looked at her niece and said, “It’s just a turn-and freedom, Mary!” It was when sheclosed the door of her room and turned the key that locked the door that the most important andcreative hours of her life were spent, the hours when she wrote her poetry. She was regarded as arecluse by many of her neighbors, that is, as a person who spent a good deal of time by herself.59.

Reading Comprehension(50分)阅读4片,样题提供前三篇Directions: There are 4 passages in this part, 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 OneLearning how to write is like taking a course in publicspeaking. I’d ask whether anyone in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.“What did you learn in that course?” I’d ask.“Well, the main thing was learning how to f ace an audience…not to be inhibited (拘谨;抑制)…not to be nervous…”Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don’t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you’re taught how not tobe afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to reach out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your longstanding nervous inhibitions.It is the same in writing. The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ll read what you wrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and reach out to the person at the other end of the line.Of course, in public speaking, with the audience right in front of you, the problem is easier. You can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you’re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her. But tha t effort is necessary or at least it’s necessary until you’ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously “talk on paper.”4l. The main task of a public speech course is to ________.A. teach spoken-language experienceB. teach how to use gestures to assist speechC. help the learners overcome nervousnessD. teach how to control the volume of the speaker’s voice42. Learning how to write is similar to learning how to speakin publicin that a writer should ___________.A. overcome his or her nervousness in the first placeB. watch his or her grammar and vocabularyC. collect a lot of data before writingD. take hold of a reader and talk to him or her before writing43. In the author’s opinion, _________.A.writing needs more experience and skill than public speakingB.both writing and public speaking require effortC.writing is imaginativeD.public speaking is not so natural as writing44. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Not many students feel the need to learn public speaking.B.Training is necessary before you can speak with script.C.In public speaking, the audience are more nervous than the speaker.D.Writing is just like making a public speech on paper.45. This selection is mainly about learning how to _______.A.make a public speechB.talk on paperC.behave properly in public speechD.express strong emotion on paperPassage TwoIn 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.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’stechnology are i mpressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, nickel and copper and so on exist on the ocean floor, ready to be mined.Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental peoples.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy such as hydroelectric power.Technology is enabling man to explore ever deeper under the sea. The new undersea technology is providing divers with diving suits and undersea chambers that are kept at sea level pressure. The development of strong, newmaterials has made this possible.The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. By the year 2000, experts believe that the problems to exploit the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.46. What is the best title for the passage?A. Needs of ManB. Sources of EnergyC. Sea HarvestD. Sea ExploringTechnology47. According to the author, technology for exploring the sea is important because______.A.man cannot travel farther into spaceB. resources on land arerunning shortC.it’s a l ot of fun diving into the seaD. ancient peopleused to explore the sea48. Why does the author mention a steamship?A.To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.B.To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ship.C.To argue that man should use steamships more than other meansof transportation.D.To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy fromthe sea.49. It can be inferred from the passage that_______.A.man hasn’t completely developed the riches of the seaB.technology for exploring the sea has been solvedC.planting rice in the sea will be made possible in a short timeD.in the near future man can live on the ocean floor50. The word “exploit”in the last paragraph could best be replaced by________.A.evaluateB. developC. gatherD. scatterPassage ThreeYour passport is your official identification as an American citizen. In America, most people never consider obtaining a passport unless they are planning a trip out of the country. InEurope, where travel from one country to another is much more common, almost everyone carries a passport. A passport is the final proof of identity in almost every county in the world.In l979 almost l5 million Americans held passports. Most of these passports were obtained to travel outside the country because, except for a few Western nations, passports are required to enter every country. And if you travel abroad, you must have a valid passport to reenter the country.When traveling abroad, you will need a passport for identification when exchanging dollars for francs or marks or other foreign currency. You may also need your passport to use a credit card, buy an airplane ticket or check into a hotel. As a passport is an official U.S. document, it is valuable as identification in any emergency overseas, such as floods, fires or war. Don’t confuse passports and visas. Whereas a passport is issued by a country to its citizens, a visa is official permission to visit a country granted by the government of that country. For some years, many countries were dropping their visa requirements, but that trend has reversed. Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela now require visas from U.S. citizens. They may be obtained from the embassy of the country you wish to visit.Passport applications are available at passport agency offices in large cities like Boston, New York, or Chicago. In smaller cities, applications are available at post offices and at federal courts. T o get your first passport, you must submit the application in person, along with a birth certificate and two pictures.5l. The main purpose of this passage is to___________.A. discuss traveling in other countriesB. distinguish between passports and visasC. discuss the financial uses of a passportD. provide information about passports52. Passports are beneficial for___________.A. exchanging currencyB. using a credit cardC. checking into hotelsD. all of the above53. We can conclude from the passage that_________.A. every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenB. not every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenC. only countries like Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela now requirevisas from U.S. citizensD. passports are obtained at the embassy once you enter a country54. The passage suggests that_________.A. m ost people don’t realize how important passports areB. passports aren’t important once you are in the country you’ve chosento visitC. passports are simple to obtain through the mailD. passports are obtained at the embassy once you enter a country55. As used in this passage, the word “valid” in the second paragraph means__________.A. foreignB. legalC. monetaryD. illegalIII.Cloze (20分)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Read it carefully and translate it into Chinese.As a developing country, China is confronted with the dual task of developing the economy and protecting the environment. Starting from its national conditions, China has, in the process of promoting its overall modernization program, made environmental protection one of its basic policies, regarded the realization of sustainable economic development as an important strategy and meanwhile, carried out throughout the country campaigns for pollution prevention and treatment as well as ecological environmental protection.Over the 35 years since its adoption of reform and opening policy, China’s gross national p roduct has achieved an average annual growth of around l0 percent, while its environment has basically ceased from deteriorating. Practice has shown that China’s endeavor in striking a balance between economic development and environmental protection has been effective.As a member of the international community, China, while making great efforts to protect its own environment, has takenan active part in international environmental protection affairs to promote international cooperation in environmental protection, and earnestly fulfilled her international obligations. All these have given full expression to the sincerity and determination of the Chinese government and people to protect the global environment.Mankind still faces a great many difficulties in solving the problems of the environment and development, and there is a grand task to perform and a long way to go. China will, as it did in the past, cooperate with other countries of the world and strive for the protection of the environment for human survival, for the happiness and prosperity of humanity, and for the benefits of our children.V.

Each passage is followed by five 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 singer line through the centre.Passage 1Anthropology(人类学)is the study of how people live. It includes their family life, religion, laws and language. The term “anthropology”comes from two Greek words:“anthropos” means “human being”and “logy”means “the science of”. Anthropology can be divided into two areas. These two main divisions are cultural anthropology and physical anthropology.Anthropologists define human progress in three main steps. Step one begins with the first human being and continues until the last of people who hunted animals just to survive .Step two includes people who grew food. In this step, there was progress in invention and religion. Step three deals with first civilization, such as those in Egypt and parts of Asia. Anthropologists always seek new information about people .For instance, recent evidence found in Ethiopia and Kenya shows humans earlier in history than it was previously believed.41.According to the passage, anthropology is study of________A. family life, religion and artB. the differences between science and artsC. human beingsD. different cultures42.Which of the following belongs to the second step of human progress?A.

The Progress of Human BeingsC. The CivilizationsD. The Study of AnthropologistsPassage 2The legal limit for driving after drinking is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood in the U.S. When tested. But there is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It varies with each person depending on your weight, sex, and the sort of drinks you have had. Some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks.In fact, your driving ability can be affected by just one or two drinks. Even if you're below the legal limit, you can still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol.It takes about an hour for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. So, if you have a heavy drinking in the evening, you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning, or you could even find that you are still over the legal limit. In addition, if you have had a few drinks at lunchtime, another one or two drinks in the early evening may well put you over the legal limit.In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had, the more certain they were that they could drive through a set of moveable posts in the driving test... and the less able they were to do it! So the only way to be sure you're safe is not to drink at all.Alcohol is a major cause of road traffic accidents. One in three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of death among young people. More than half of the people stopped by the police to take a breath analyzer test have a blood alcohol concentration of more than twice the legal limit.It is important to remember that driving after drinking doesn't just affect you. If you are involved in an accident, it affects a lot of other people as well, at least the person you might kill or injure.46.The amount of alcohol one can drink before reaching the legal limit________.A. is 80 milligrams of pure alcoholB. is bout three standard drinksC. is different for different people C. is not related to one’s body weight47.When might you be taken to court by the police for drinking and driving?A. When you have driven a vehicle after drinking any alcohol at all.B. When you have had at least three drinks before driving.C. Only when you tests show that you have 80 milligrams of alcohol at all.D. When the police think that you r driving is affected by alcohol.48.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TURE?A. When you have been drinking heavily in the evening, you might be still over the legal limit the next morning.B. The more alcoholic drinks the drivers have had, the more likely they are to pass the driving test.C. If you have had a standard drink, you may drive an hour later.D. If you want to drive safely, you had better not drink at all.49.Alcohol is a major cause of road accidents in that________.A. most drivers who die in these accidents have been drinkingB. more young people die in drink-related accidents than in any other wayC. drinking affects people’s blood alcohol concentrationD. one in three drivers drink heavily50.What does this article urge you to remember about driving after drinking?A. You may be taken to court by the police.B. You may put yourself in danger.C. You may find your driving ability affected.D. You may put many other people at risk.Passage 3On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, took her handbag with some money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went her handbag some money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went to the over 60s Club. She always went there on Thursday. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone. At six o’clock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house? How? Had someone got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry.Over a cup of tea she was wondering whether someone might have a key that fitted her front door—“a master key ”perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that, dressed as usual, she went out at her usual time, but she didn’t go to the club. Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through her garden and the back door. She settled down to wait.It was just after four o’clock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly toward the front door. A long piece of wire appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettleand poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. Clarke heard the sound of running feet.51.Mrs. Clarke looked forward to Thursday because__________.A.she worked at a club on the day B.she lived aloneC.she visited a club on Thursdays D.a special visitor came on Thursday Clarke52.If someone had made a forced entry,________.A.Mrs. Clarke would have found a broken door or windowB.he or she was still be in the houseC.things would have been thrown aboutD.he or she would have needed a master key53.On the third Thursday, Mrs. Clarke left home________.A. to go to the club as usualB. to see if the thief was hanging about outsideC. to report the break-in to the policeD. to trick the thief54.The lock on the front door was one which________.A. could not be opened through the letter-boxB. could be opened with a long piece of wireC. could not be opened without a keyD. could be opened by using a knob instead of a key55.The wire fell to the floor because________.A. Mrs. Clarke refused to open the door B.The thief’s glove dropped offC.it was too hot to hold D.the thief just wanted to get awayPassage 4No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the number is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people: as we get older, many of us will become less mobile, hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towardsthem.Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or on to buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, which counts.56. The first paragraph points out that________.A. there are many disabled people in the worldB. the number of disabled people in India is the biggestC. India has many more disabled people than CanadaD. it is easy to get an exact number of the world's disabled people57.The last paragraph focuses on_________.A. disabilityB. ignoranceC. is includedD. is numbered58.

Even the able-bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older.B. There are about 10 percent disabled people in the United Kingdom.C. The whole society should pay due attention to the barriers faced by disabled people.F. There still exits prejudice against the disabled that is easy to break down.60. It can be concluded from the passage that________.A. we should try our best to prevent disabilityB. both physical and mental barriers are hard to break downC. we should take a proper attitude towards the disabledD. the able-bodied people will fully understand the disabledPart III Cloze Test(20 points)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.20 As we recently discovered, there is a Stepmother's Day, though it is not on any official holiday calendar. So, it would be safe to assume that there is a similar day for stepdads, too. Right? Well, it depends on what you read. A Google search brought up posts that say, for example, " It's on father's day—father's day is for fathers, step - fathers and people who are like fathers to you—it's a day for making father figures feel special. " Further searching found a Stepfather's Day Facebook page that says, "The unofficial Stepfather's Day is the fourth Sunday of June. " Unfortunately, as of the publishing of this article, only 30 people have " liked" the page. Considering that studies show 3. 3 million men, or 11. 1% of U. S. fathers, live with at least one stepchild, that's only a drop in the ocean.It's interesting to note that there is a National Grandparents'Day. President Jimmy Carter signed it into law in 1978. Law! While grandparents are undoubtedly special people in our children's lives, they are often seen as the most loving family members. But what about the stepparents? The stepparents are the ones who are often the outsiders, the ones who have to endure the hurtful"You're not my dad!"or"You're not my mom!"And yet they never give up. They do their best to overcome the <u>inherent</u> challenges of stepparents and be role models for their stepchildren. These unsung (未被颂扬的) family heroes deserve "official "days of honor. Perhaps if we are loud enough, President Obama,who had a stepfather himself, will sign into law National Stepmother's Day and National Stepfather's Day.Are you with me? Follow me and get your voice heard. How cool it would be if we could make this happen!21 What does the underlined word" that" in Paragraph 1 refer to?(A)11. 1% of U. S. fathers who live with at least one stepchild in the U. S.(B)3. 3 million men who live with at least one stepchild in the world.(C)Father figures who are equally honored in the U. S.(D)30 people who support Stepfather's Day on the Facebook page.22 What did President Jimmy Carter sign into law in 1978?(A)The National Stepchildren's Day.(B)The National Stepparents'Day.(C)The National Grandparents'Day.(D)The National Grandchildren's Day.23 Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word" inherent" in Paragraph 2? (A)Inevitable.(B)Lasting.(C)Unbelievable.(D)Tough.24 What is the reason for setting an official holiday for stepparents?(A)Because they are often seen as the most loving family members.(B)Because they deserve respect and honor as family members.(C)Because they love their role as stepparents.(D)Because they are often treated as heroes in the family.24 Most students choose " Homestay" accommodation when they study abroad: others select Home-stay even if they are not on a study visit. Statistics show that it's a form of accommodation gaining in popularity all the time.But what is Homestay? And what makes it so popular?Homestay means living with a family, or "host family" as we say. There are three ways of doing it:choose to learn English in a language school near to your Homestay location:have your English classes in the house with a member of the family who is a qualified teacher:select not to have classes at all when you visit—a popular choice if you want to do the tourist thing for example.Even in their busy summer period the organizations that arrange the Homestays will always try to place you with the most suitable host family to match your requirements. Placement (安置 ) organizations think about location, interests, language level, eating requirements, allergies (过敏) and other requests you may have.Though prices vary according to your needs, good quality Homestay accommodation can be relatively economical—and although you may be charged an extra amount of money if you want your Homestay in or near the city centre. Even if you stay further out, you can expect your journey into the centre not to exceed 30 minutes.Not only does Homestay accommodation represent value for money, it also gives you an excellent opportunity to practise English with your host family. This is a very important extra for students who like to speak as much English as possible. But if you plan to learn English, why not have your English classes in your host family? There's no better way to learn English than this—the perfect combination of learning and accommodation combined with the cultural experience !25 Homestay is an ideal choice for students who______.(A)want to learn statistics(B)plan to study overseas(C)plan to visit relatives(D)want to stay at home26 Who will consider students' requirements before their Homestay starts?(A)The language school.(B)The host family.(C)The English teacher.(D)The placement organization.27 Which of the following is a key factor affecting the price of Homestay?(A)Students' specific needs.(B)Students' language level.(C)Nationality of the host family.(D)Eating habits of the host family.28 What can be inferred from the passage?(A)The author finds Homestay accommodation expensive.(B)The author finds Homestay arrangement complicated.(C)The author is in favor of Homestay accommodation.(D)The author is doubtful about the safety of Homestay.28 Using less energy around the home is easier than you might think, saving your money while creating a healthier, more comfortable living space for you and your family. Changing a few old habits can make an impact on your energy bill, your comfort and theenvironment. Here are some handy tips to make your house more energy-efficient. Lower the heatIf your home has adjustable central heating, lowering the room temperature even slightly can make a difference. You may not feel it, but your wallet will. It is even more advisable to control temperatures at different times of the day. Hang clothes out to dryIf the weather allows it, head outside and dry your laundry on a clothesline. The sunlight will help eliminate bacteria and dust. While clothes dryers get the job done faster, they also use up energy. By hanging your clothes out you'll be cutting greenhouse gases by about three kilograms per load. Take advantage of natural lightInstalling large windows on the northern side of your house can help you make use of sunlight's natural warmth. To stay cool indoors on hot summer days, install blinds(百叶窗) to block the heavy sun. Put your desk near the window, then you don't need a lamp in the daytime. Wrap (裹) your pipesBe sure your hot-water pipes are properly wrapped. In an average home, heating water accounts for more than one-quarter of the energy bill. Why let warmth go to waste before it reaches you? Choose the right size for appliances (家用电器)When the time comes to replace appliances, select those that are both energy-efficient and of the appropriate size for your needs. Don't buy bigger ones just because you can.29 What benefit may using less energy at home bring about?(A)Enlarging your living space.(B)Keeping old habits unchanged.(C)Having a healthier living environment.(D)Improving your work efficiency.30 Which of the following is one of the advantages of hanging clothes out to dry?(A)It gets clothes dry much faster than clothes dryers.(B)It uses half the energy that clothes dryers do.(C)It may help to build a greenhouse.(D)It helps remove bacteria in clothes.31 What can be installed on the northern side of your house to make better use of natural light?(A)Shades.(B)Windows.(C)Blinds.(D)Curtains.32 Besides energy-efficiency, what else should be considered when replacing appliances? (A)Proper size.(B)Good quality.(C)Replacing time.(D)Reasonable price.32 I talk to strangers for a living and love the challenge of getting their stories published in news-papers. I've been married for years, but until six months ago, I couldbe a typical absent-minded husband. Often I was just nodding when I was supposed to. When my wife asked, <u>" Did you even hear what I just said?"</u>I would defensively say, " Of course I did!"In January, I began to lose my voice. Doctors told me I needed surgery, or my throat would be permanently damaged. Total silence would be required for the first few weeksof my recovery.Two hours after the surgery, my eyes filled with tears as my two—year—old son looked puzzled because I wouldn't answer his questions. I wanted to talk but couldn't. Luckily, I'd recorded myself reading some of his favorite books. That would come in handy the next couple of weeks.When I got home, I noriced a"side effect" : as my wife talked to me to keep up my spirits, I wasn't just hearing her: I was listening to her. Over the next few weeks, I didn't want to miss a word she said. I began to hear sweetness in her voice. It had never left. I'd just stopped noticing. I found myself understanding her better on topics I'd previouslydismissed as" things I just don't get as a guy". I also realized my son wasn't just talking nonstop but that he often had thoughtful things to say. Even while walking my dog in the woods near our home, I began hearing pleasant patterns in birdsongs. Before my surgery, I'd have spent those walks on my phone.After several weeks, I was fully recovered. Conversation in our house is better now, not because I'm talking more. I'm just listening better and becoming less and less surprised that I like what I hear.33 According to the passage, the author is most likely a______.(A)journalist(B)doctor(C)driver(D)teacher34 What does the wife mean by asking" Did you even hear what I just said?" in Paragraph 1 ?(A)You didn't have to nod while you were listening.(B)You should tell me what I said iust now.(C)You should listen to me.(D)You didn't want to talk with me.35 What is true of the author after the surgery?(A)He was unwilling to talk to his wife.(B)He was unable to communicate with his son.(C)He was required to keep silent for the first few months.(D)He was worried about his recovery after the surgery.36 What did the author realize after the surgery?(A)His dog liked pleasant birdsongs.(B)His son didn't like talking.(C)His wife was a talkative woman.(D)His house was full of pleasant talks.36 Coconut(椰子)is an unusual food for many reasons. It is one of the largest<u>edible</u> seeds produced by any plant. Its unusual contents also make it unique in the seed world—it consists of both" meat" and" water" inside. The coconut meat is the white substance with which we are all familiar, as it is used extensively for cooking and flavorings: the coconut water is a white and sweet liquid.Portuguese (葡萄牙的) explorers gave the nut its name in the 15th century, referring to it as coco , meaning" ghost" in their language. The outside appearance of coconuts reminded them of a ghost's face, and the tree has had that name ever since.The coconut has varied uses. It is used to make various cooking oils for fast-food restaurants around the world to make diet materials. The coconut fluid is a favorite drink in hot climates, providing a cool and refreshing beverage fight off the tree. This water is also used by manufacturers of various sports drinks. Even the shell itself has many uses, including animal food and fertilizer.Yet the coconut is also useful in many ways that have nothing to do with food. Coconut oil is used for cosmetics(化妆品) , medicines, and so on. Dried coconut shells are used in many countries as a tool for shining wood floors. The shells are also used for shirt buttons, and are commonly found on Hawaiian clothing. They are even used for musical instruments and bird houses.And all these are only some of the uses found for the coconut fruit. The coconut tree, which produces the nut, also produces many useful things. It's no wonder that the coconut tree has been taken as"the tree of life".37 What does the underlined word "edible "in Paragraph 1 mean?(A)Eatable.(B)Available.(C)Visible.(D)Collectible.38 The coconut got its name because of______. (A)its round shape(B)its ghostlike appearance(C)its hard shell(D)its white color39 What is the passage mainly about?(A)Types of coconut seeds.(B)The discovery of coconut.(C)The history of coconut.(D)Uses of coconut.40 What can be learned from the passage? (A)Coconut fluid can become fertilizer. (B)Coconut trunks are houses for birds. (C)Coconut trees are useful plants.(D)Coconut oil is rare and expensive.四、Part IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the following passages.

The first thing that interested me was the colorful flowers and green grass.Everything inside and outside is well kept in the White House. We entered the building _34_ going through many security checks(安检). In the east hallway on the first floor, I saw the _35_ of the past presidents on the walls. The library has over 2, 700 books. The Vermeil Room and China Room show different collections.We walked upstairs to the State Floor. The East Room, the _36_ in the White House, is the most wonderful in its size and furniture(家具). It is in the room _37_ the presidents usually meet the _38_ who attend the press conferences (新闻发布会).The Green, Blue and Red Rooms on the same floor got their names _39_ the colors of the furniture and walls.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked marked A. B, C and D. You should decide on the best ONE and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET. Questions 51—55 are based on the following passage :Have you ever wondered why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their particular colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Birds, especially seagulls, are very fond of locusts (蝗虫). But birds cannot easily catch locusts because locusts change their colors along with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe, locusts take on exactly the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible (看不见的)to the hunters’eyes. because they have the colors much like the barks of trees(树皮).An even stranger act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it, and it immediately swims away. Thus, it has existed (存在)up to now though it is not powerful at all.51. This passage mainly talks about __________.A. the change of color in locustsB. the protective coloring of animals and pestsC. how a certain sea fish protects itselfD. how a bird catches locusts52.

Questions 51—55 are based on the following passage :Have you ever wondered why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their particular colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Birds, especially seagulls, are very fond of locusts (蝗虫). But birds cannot easily catch locusts because locusts change their colors along with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe, locusts take on exactly the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible (看不见的)to the hunters’eyes. because they have the colors much like the barks of trees(树皮).An even stranger act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it, and it immediately swims away. Thus, it has existed (存在)up to now though it is not powerful at all.51.

AKaren Christiansen in Madison,Wisconsin,is licking stamps and addressing envelopes.Soon she and her fiance will be sending out invitations to their wedding.Meanwhile,Wei Yashung is at the hairdresser’s in Shanghai, China.She knows she will have a long wait.It’s May18,the most popular day to get married in China.The room is filled with brides preparing for their special day.“Everyone feels very emotional at this time.There are a lot of rituals and superstitions(迷信)at the wedding,”says Maxine Rowe,an anthropologist.Karen’s aunt and sisters help her check off the things she needs according to old customs.They recite the traditional verse,“Something old,something new,something borrowed,and something blue.”Friends and relatives gather around and contribute grandmother’s locket(纪念品盒),a cousin’s wedding veil,or a blue garter to prepare for the ceremony.Many wedding traditions in western cultures began long ago and were designed to protect the couple from ad luck.“The wedding veil is a Greek custom intended to hide the bride from evil spirits,”says Maxine.“The Romans contributed the custom of bridesmaids to confuse the spirits.Wedding bouquets had strong-smelling herbs to scare witches and devils.”In China,thousands of couples choose May18for heir wedding day.“In the past,people consulted an almanac(历书)to find lucky days,”explains Maxine.“But in modern times a new tradition is being formed.”May 18sounds very close in Chinese to“wo yao fa,”or“I will get rich.”It is considered a good omen to get married on this day.Some people don’t think it’s a good idea for everyone to get married on the same day.“It’s silly and superstitious,”one reporter wrote.But hairdressers,florist,and owners of restaurants say it’s the best day.They can raise their prices and their services are fully booked.Maybe they are the ones who should be saying,“I will get rich.”1.The overall structure of this passage can be called______.[A]comparison and contrast[B]description of events in order of time[C]details leading to conclusion[D]generalization followed by details2.An anthropologist in Paragraph2probably studies______.[A]hairstyles[B]Jewels[C]Almanac[D]customs3.Why do Karen’s friends and relatives contribute a cousin’s wedding veil?[A]Because it is something old.[B]Because it is something new.[C]Because it is something borrowed.[D]Because it is something blue.4.The word“omen”in Paragraph5probably means______.[A]a sign of star[B]a sign of present[C]a sign of past[D]a sign of future5.What’s the writer’s tone in the last sentence“Maybe they are the ones who should be saying,‘I will get rich.’”?[A]Humorous.[B]Tolerant.[C]Matter-of-fact.[D]Furious.BThe easiest and least complicated way to motivate somebody is quite simply to pay them attention.What you say is not particularly important,nor necessarily is how long you spend saying it,as long as it’s something.“Nice weather”or“How are you?”will do.People just love attention,adults and children.Children love attention so much that they will do anything to get some.In fact,if children are not getting enough attention,they would rather be naughty and get told off than be“good”and be ignores.An interesting time in most households with young children is dinnertime—it’s the end of the day,everybody is tired,the house is in a mess and Johnny doesn’t like carrots and is refusing to eat his food. Again,the easy trap to fall into is to start getting cross with Johnny and getting into a big argument about his food. Again,he’s getting the attention he desires;even if it’s not the best sort of attention,it’s better than nothing.It’s fascinating if you’re able to stand back from the situation and instead focus attention and praise on Johnny’s brother who is eating his food—after all,he’s the one that is doing what you want him to do.After five or ten minutes or so of being ignores and deprived of the attention,it’s amazing how quickly(usually)Johnny sees sense and obeys.I’ve watched my own children in this situation go from screaming from behind the sofa that they won’t eat their food,to sheepishly crawling to the table saying that maybe they’ll have a little bit,to sitting in their chair wolfing the lot and saying,“Mummy,aren’t I doing good dinner eating?”—all without having one word spoken to them by their parents,who are busily paying attention to their brothers.This fundamental need for attention,and doing whatever it takes to get it,doesn’t disappear when we turn into adults.Sure,there are people who are“real attention seekers”in a loud and extravert(外向的)way,and there arethe shy,retiring types who don’t want attention in such a“sociable”way.But everybody still wants to be recognized and seen as worthwhile.5.What will children probably do to get parents’attention?[A]They will keep quiet for a long time.[B]They will ignore their parents.[C]They will behave naughtily.[D]They will get cross easily.5.What does the phrase“the easy trap to fall into”in Paragraph2probably mean?[A]A set-up situation parents are likely to go into.[B]The household work parents can not avoid.[C]Some tempting food children love to eat.[D]A bad habit children easily develop.6.An effective way to make children behave themselves may be to_____.[A]scold them severely[B]teach them what to do[C]give them total freedom[D]praise their sisters or brothers7.“Real attention seekers”in the last paragraph are probably those who_____.[A]motivate others to learn[B]associate with shy types[C]rely on negative attention[D]arouse others’attention openly8.What point does the author make by relating to children’s behavior?[A]Children’s upbringing needs parents’constant care.[B]Children are usually extravert while adults are sociable.[C]Both adults and children need to be seen as worthwhile.[D]The motivation of children differs greatly from that of adults.CNamed for the dense shade of their thick pines,the Black Hills of South Dakota have for centuries been considered holy by the Lakota Sioux,once the most powerful tribe in the West.Today,because of the passions of a few artists,the land itself has become holy in another way.It took the obsessed sculptor Gutzon Borglum,his son Lincoln,and four hundred workers fourteen years (1927-1941)to complete an artistic and engineering project so monumental that no one believed it possible: carving and blasting the six-story faces of George Washington,Thomas Jefferson,Teddy Roosevelt,and Abraham Lincoln out of stony Mount Rushmore.A little trivia:Washington’s eyes are11feet wide,and his nose is26feet long.Mr.Lincoln,for his part,sports a mole(痣)that measures16inches across.Just17miles away,the gigantic Crazy Horse Memorial is slowly taking shape.Also carved into granite(花岗岩),this memorial,when completed somewhere around2050,after a century’s labor,will depict(刻画)Native America’s greatest warriors chief on his horse,dwarfing Mount Rushmore at563feet tall.The horse’s nostril(鼻孔)alone will be large enough to hold a five-room house.From Crazy Horse,head east on the beautiful14-miles Needles Highway,past billion-year-old granite hills, to Sylvan Lake and then north to Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway,whose landscape you’ll easily recognize as the backdrops used in the film Dances with Wolves.Alternatively,you can park your bags in the pleasant Game Lodge that served as Calvin Coolidge’s Summer White House.Of the historic inn’s seven rooms,you can still book the room the thirtieth president and his wife occupied during the three months in1972.The lodge is one of three found within Custer State Park,whose18-miles Wildlife Loop Road runs through unfenced meadows where herds of 1,500buffalo roam.9.The word“sports”in Paragraph2most probably means_____.[A]is famous for[B]is characterized by[C]is decorated with[D]is accompanied by10.Of the four things mentioned in the passage,which one is the largest?[A]Washington’s eyes.[B]Washington’s nose.[C]Lincoln’s mole.[D]Crazy Horse’s nose.11.Which of the following projects is still in progress?[A]Lincoln’s face.[B]Crazy Horse.[C]Summer White House.[D]Wildlife Loop Road.12.What is NOT a feature that Mount Rushmore sculpture and Crazy Horse have in common?[A]They were very large.[B]They were carved out of granite.[C]They were located in the Black Hills.[D]They both depicted the Indian tribes.13.Who is the thirtieth president of the US?[A]Thomas Jefferson.[B]Teddy Roosevelt.[C]Abraham Lincoln.[D]Calvin Coolidge.D[A]A magazine.[B]A newspaper.[C]A government white paper.[D]A university journal.15.According to the passage,male managers tend to_______.[A]be more selfless in teamwork[B]ask more questions when surveyed[C]be considerate leaders in a company[D]claim the contribution made by their colleagues16.What can be found after comparing the findings in the UK and in the US ?[A]The findings are irrelevant.[B]The findings are contradictory.[C]The findings match each other.[D]The findings are not significant.17.What does the phrase“penny-pinching companies”in Paragraph 7probably mean ?Women are more efficient and trustworthy,have a better understanding of their workforce and are more generous with their praise.In short they make the best managers,and if men are to keep up they will have to start learning from their female counterparts,a report claims today.The survey of 1,000male and female middle and senior managers from across the UK is an indictment (谴责)of the ability of men to function as leaders in the modern workplace.A majority of those questioned believed women had a more modern outlook on their profession and were more open—minded and considerate.By way of contrast,a similar number believe male managers are self-centered and more likely to steal credit for work done by others.Management Today magazine,which conducted the research,said that after years of having to adopt a masculine identity and hide their emotions and natural behavior in the workplace,women have become role models for managers.The findings tally with a survey of female bosses carried out in the US.A five-year study of 2,500managers from 450firms found that many male bosses were rated by their staff of both sexes to be self-centered and autocratic (独裁的).Women on the other hand leave men in the starting blocks when it comes to teamwork and communicating with staff.In Britain more than 61%of those surveyed said men did not make better bosses than women.Female managers use time more effectively,with many of those surveyed commenting that juggling (兼顾的)commitments is a familiar practice for women with a job and a family.Female managers also appear to make good financial sense for penny-pinching companies :most people,of either sex,would rather ask for a rise from a man.14.What is the source of the data mentioned in the passage ?[A]Companies that lack money.[B]Companies that are very generous.[C]Companies that earn a lot of money.[D]Companies that are unwilling to spend money.18.What is the main idea of the passage ?[A]Men are better managers than women.[B]Women are better managers than men.[C]Male managers are more willing to learn.[D]Men leaders and women leaders have different advantages.A.Focus on the conversation at hand.B.If you can’t look the interview in the eye,they won’t believe your answer.C.It is your real opportunity to get face to face with your potential employer.D.If the interviewers haven’t indicated when a decision will be reached,ask them.E.Explain in detail how a team atmosphere can improve your personal efficiency.F.Losers dwell on past losses whereas winners dwell on future success.第二部分:七选五阅读(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)文中有5个空格,每个空格为一题,要求考生根据文章的意思从所提供的7个选项中选出最合适的5个,分别填入空格处,其余2项为多余选项。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the, best answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneMany a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. 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 hours 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 writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found for me my room in a New York apartment building. 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 got 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 died wondering. What if I would keep putting my dream to test (even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure).This is the shadow-land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.51. The passage is meant to _______ .A) warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB) encourage young people to pursue a writing careerC) show young people it is unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealthD) advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer52. What can be concluded from the passage?A) A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on effort.B) Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.C) Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D) The chances for writers to become successful are small.53. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A) He found his dream would never come true.B) He hadn't seen a change for the better.C) He wasn't able to have a rest for a whole year.D) He was not able to produce a single book.54. In Line 13“...people who died wondering”,“who”refers to those .A) who think a lot without making a decisionB) who regret giving up their career halfwayC) who think too much of the dark side of lifeD) who are full of imagination even upon deathPassage TwoStudents can travel in the United States without spending too much money if they follow these suggestions.A travel agent can give you information on special economy fares for trains, buses and planes. Think about hiking or biking for a part of your trip, too. You‘ll not only save money, but you'll also see a lot more of the country.Some students may want to travel by car. Be sure to think about going with other students —many colleges have '‘ride boards” that list when and where other students plan to travel. Many radio stations provide the same, sort of service —they announce who’s driving where, when, how many riders they will take and what the expenses will be.There are many inexpensive, older hotels near bus or train stations. Check your travel guide for names of the best. Many parts of the country also have youth hostels where youngpeople can stay for only a few dollars a night.You don't have to eat in restaurants all the time, but we don’t recommend a diet of candy and cola, either. You can usually get a healthy, cheap breakfast in a restaurant. If the weather is warm, you can buy food in supermarkets or at roadside stands and have a picnic for lunch. For dinner you can get the names of good, cheap restaurants from travel guides or friends.55. The passage tells students ______ .A) how to get help while travelingB) how to make travel plansC) how to use less money while travelingD) how to choose hotels56. To see more of the country, you’d better travel ______ .A) by plane B) by train C) by bus D) by bike57. According to the passage, staying at youth hostels is ________ .A) cheap B) enjoyable C) comfortable D) convenient58. To save money, you can _______ .A) eat in restaurants sometimes B) invite your friends for a picnicC) take some food with you D) have more candy and colaPassage ThreeEmily Dickinson was a nineteenth-century American woman who lived her life completely unknown to anyone except her family and a few friends. Less than a dozen of her poems were published during her lifetime. In spite of this, she is regarded today as a great poet, perhaps the greatest poet the United States has produced. Along with the Greek poet Sappho, she may be one of the two greatest women poets who have ever lived.Dickinson was born on December 10, 1830, in a small Massachusetts town calledAmherst. Hers was an old family; her ancestors had come to the United States 200 years before. Her parents were not really rich, but they were certainly not poor. She had an older brother, Austin, and a younger sister, Lavinia. Her parents seem to have been rather withdrawn people, and the members of the family spent a good deal of time by themselves. She doesn’t seem to have liked her mother very much. She spoke once of never really having a mother.She was educated at the local Amherst Academy and Mount Holyoke Women’s Seminary. Although she was sometimes described as pretty, she never married. In all outward respects, her life appeared to be rather boring.The time and place in which she lived was not a good one for a woman artist to succeed. Women are expected to be obedient to men and to remain in their place at home. Rather than waste her life in the meaningless round of social events that were open to women, she decided at some point to retreat from the world in order to write her poetry. From then on, she spent a great deal of time in her bedroom writing. In later years when she was standing in front of her bedroom door, she looked at her niece and said, “It’s just a turn-and freedom, Mary!” It was when she closed the door of her room and turned the key that locked the door that the most important and creative hours of her life were spent, the hours when she wrote her poetry. She was regarded as a recluse by many of her neighbors, that is, as a person who spent a good deal of time by herself.59. According to the author, who is the greatest woman poet in America?A)Both Sappho and Dickinson B) Emily DickinsonC) Sappho D) Not mentioned60. Women in Emily Dickinson’s time ______.A) are regarded as reclusesB) are expected to be obedient to menC) spend most of their time in social eventD) are expected to retreat from the world61. Emily Dickinson's ancestors came to the United States in around .A)1630 B)1830 C)1730 D)193062. Which of the following statement is NOT true?A) It is quite likely that Emily Dickinson didn't like her mother.B) Emily Dickinson regarded being locked in her room as “freedom”.C) She is well-known in her lifetime and is still regarded as a great poet now.D) Her parents seem to have been rather withdrawn people, and they spent a good deal of time with their family members.Section BDirections: Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.第II 卷第四部分:翻译(本大题共10 小题,每小题2 分,共20 分)Part IV TranslationSection ADirections: Put the following sentences into Chinese.

2015年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model, I realized this a day late,when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid,The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night, Fortunately, I didn’t got any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static (静电) noise. For some reason,when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise ,I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether .My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now,but I keep expecting more trouble.21.Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A.He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C.He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.22.Which of the following can best replace the phrase”signed off”in Paragraph 1?A.ended all their programsB.provided fewer channelsC.changed to commercialsD.showed all-night movies23.How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A.By shaking and hitting it.B.By turning it on and off.C.By switching channels.D.By having it repaired.24. How does the anthor sound when telling the story ?A. CuriousB. AnxiousC. CautiousD. HumorousBYour house may have an effect on your figure . Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off . You can make your environment work for you instead of against you . Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights . Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious(难为情)when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food . If your home doesn’t have enough window light , get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors . Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites . In one study , people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room . Warm colors like yellow make tood appear more appetizing , while cold colors make us feel less hungry . So when it’s time to repaint , go blue.Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里)per meal than those who rush through their meals.

It is not surprising that more and More students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree.NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods,”he said.29.

Part I Reading Comprehension (60 marks, 60 minutes)SectionAFormatⅠ(共 20 小题,每小题 2 分,共 40 分)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Passage oneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Karen Christiansen Madison,Wisconsin,is licking stamps and addressing envelopes.Soon,she and her future husband will be sending out invitations for their June wedding.Meanwhile,on the other side of the world,Wei Yashung is at the hairdresser’s in Shanghai,China.She knows she will have a long wait---maybe four hours.It’s May 18th,the most popular day to get married in China.The room is filled with brides preparing for their special day.Weddings are a special event in every culture.People begin new lives together and families are joined together. “Everyone feels very emotional at this time.There are a lot of rituals and superstitions at weddings,”says Maxine Rowe,an anthropologist.As Kerry plans her wedding,her aunt and sisters help her check off the things she needs,according to an old custom.They read the traditional poem, “Something old,something new,something borrowed,and something blue”Female friends and relatives gather around.preparing the bride for the ceremony.Many wedding traditions in western cultures were designed to protect the couple from bad luck. “The wedding veil is a Greek custom,to hide the bride from evil1spirits,”says Maxine. “The Romans developed the custom of bridesmaids(i.e. women dressed like the bride) to confuse the spirits.Also,some wedding flowers have a strong smell to scare away the evil spirits.”In China,thousands of couples that have chosen May 18th for their wedding day. “In the past,Chinese couples consulted a special book to find lucky and unlucky days for getting married ” explains Maxine. “But in modern times,a new tradition is being formed.” The eighteenth day of the fifth month,five-one-eight or “wu yao ba ”as it is called in China,sounds very close to “ wo yao fa ” or “I will get rich.” This is considered a omen for any couples getting married on this day.Some people don’t think it is a good idea for everyone to get married on the same day. “It’s silly and superstitious,” a newspaper reporter wrote.Hairdressers,and owners of flower stores,restaurants and car services say it’s the best day of the year.They can raise their prices for this one day and their services will still be fully booked.Maybe they are the ones who should be saying, “I will get rich.”1.The overall structure of this passage can becalled ________parison and contrastB.description of events in order of timeC.details leading to conclusionD.generalization followed by details2. An anthropologist in P2 studies _______ ?A. hairstyleB. jewelsC. almanacsD. customs3. Why do Karen’s friends and relatives contribute a cousin’s wedding veil ?A. It is something old.C. It is something borrowed. B. It is something new.D. It is something blue.4. The word omen in P5 means________.A. a sign of starB. a sign of presentC. asign of past D. a sign of future5. What is the writer’s tone in the last sentence “Maybe they are the ones who should be saying, “I will get rich.””A. HumorousB. TolerantC. Matter-of-factD. FuriousPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage: The easiest and least complicated way to motivate somebody is quite simply to pay them attention.What you say is not particularly important,nor necessarily is how long you spend saying it,as long as it’s something. “Nice weather” or “How are you ?”will do.People just love attention,adults and children.Children love attention so much that they will do anything to get some.In fact,if children are not getting enough attention,they would rather be naughty and get told off than be “good”and beignored.An interesting time in most households with young children is2dinnertime--it’s the end of the day,everybody is tired,the house is in a mess and Johnny doesn’t like carrots and is refusing to eat his food.Again,the easy trap to fall into is to start getting cross with Johnny and getting into a big argument about his food.Again,he’s getting the attention he desires;even if it’s not the best sort of attention,it’s better than nothing.It’s fascinating if you are able to stand back from the situation and instead focus attention and praise on Johnny’s brother who is eating his food---after all,he is one that is doing what you want him to do.After five or ten minutes or so of being ignored and deprive of the attention,it’s amazing how quickly(usually) Johnny sees sense and obeys.I’ve watched my own children in this situation go from screaming from behind the sofa,saying “Mummy,aren’t I doing good dinner eating ? ”---all without having one word a spoken to them by their parents,who are busily paying attention to their brothers.This fundamental need for attention,and doing whatever it takes to get it,doesn’t disappear when we turn into adults.Sure,there are people who are “real attention seekers ”in a loud and extravert ( 外向的) way,and there are the shy,retiring types who don’t want attention in such a “sociable ”way.But everybody still wants to be recognized and seen worthwhile.6.What will children probably do toget parents attention ? A.They willget quiet for a long time.B.They will ignoretheir parents.C.They will behavenaughtily. D. Theywill get crosslyeasily.7.What does the phrase “ the easy trap to fallinto ” means ?A. A set-up situation parents are likely to go into.B.The household work that parents can not avoid.C.Some tempting food children easily love to eat.D. A bad habit children easily develop.8. An effective way to make children behave themselves may to be ?A. Scold them severelyB. Teach them what to doC. Give them total freedomD. Praise their sisters or brothers9. “ Real attention seekers ” in the last paragraph are probably those ______ ?A. motivate others to learnB. associate withshy typesC. reply on negative attentionD. arouse others’attention openly10.What point does the author make byrelating to children’s behavior ?A.Children’s upbringing needs parents’constant care.B.Children are usually extravert whileadults are sociable. C.Both childrenand adults need to be seen asworthwhile. D.The motivation ofchildren differs greatly from that ofadults.3Passage ThreeQuestions11 to 15 are based on the following passage: Named for the dense shade of their thick pines,the Black Hills of south Dakota have for centuries been considered holy by Lakota Sioux,once the most powerful tribe in the west.Today,because of the passions of a few artists,the land itself has been holy in another way.It took the obsessed sculptor Gutzon Borglum,his son Lincoln,and four hundred workers 14 years to complete an artistic and engineering project so monumental that no one believe it possible: carving and blasting the six-story faces of Washington.Jefferson,Teddy Roosevelt,and Abraham Lincoln out of stony Mount Rushmore.A little trivia: Washington’ eyes are each 11 feet wide,and his nose is 26 feet long.Mr.Lincoln, sports a mole that measures 16 inches across.Just 17 miles away,the gigantic Crazy Horse Memorial is slowly taking shape.Also carved into granite,this memorial,when completed somewhere around 2050,after a century’s labor,this depict Native America’s greatest warriors chief on his horse,dwarfing Mount Rushmore at 563 feet tall.The horse’s nostril alone will be large enough to hold a five-room house.From Crazy Horse,head east on the beautiful 14-mile Needles Highway,past billion-year-old Granite hills,so Sylvan lake and then north to SpearfishCanyon Scenic Byway,whose landscape you’ll easily recognize as the backdrops used in the film Dances with Wolves.Altematively,you can park your bags in the pleasant Game lodge that served as Calvin Coolidge’s Summer White House.Of the historic inn’s seven rooms,you can still book the room the thirtieth president and his wife occupied during the three months in 1972.The lodge is one of three found within Custer State Park,whose 18-mile Wildlife Loop Road runs through unfenced meadows where herds of buffalo roam.11. The word “ sports ” in Paragraph 2 most probably means _______.A. is famous forB. is characterized byC. is decorated withD. is accompanied by12.Of the four things mentioned in the passage,which one is the largest ?A. Washington’s eyesB. Washington’s noseC. Lincoln’s moleD. Crazy Horse’s nose13.Which of the following projects is still in progress ?A. Lincoln’s face.B. Crazy Horse.C. Summer White House.D. Wildlife Loop Road.14.What is not a feature that Mount Rushmore and Crazy have in common ?A.They were very large.B.They were carved out of granite.C.They were located in Black Hills.4D. They were both depicted in India tribes.15.Who is the 30th president of the US ?A. Thomas Jefferson.B. Teddy Roosevelt.C. Abraham Lincoln.D. Calvin Coolidge.Passage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:Women are more efficient and trustworthy, have a better understanding of their workforce and are more generous with their praise.In short they make the best managers, and if men are to keep up they will have to start learning form their female counterparts, a report claims today.The survey of 1,000 male and female middle and senior managers from across the UK is an indictment of the ability of men to function as leaders in the modern workplace.A majority of those questioned believed women had a more modern outlook on their profession and were more open minded and considerate.By way of contrast, a similar number believe male managers are egocentric and more likely to steal credit for work done by others.Management today magazine, which conducted the research, said that after years of having to adopt a masculine identity and hide their emotions andnatural behaviour in the workplace, women have become role models for managers.The findings tally with a survey of female bosses carried out in the US. a five-year study of 2,500 managers from 450 firms found that many male bosses were rated by their staff of both sexes to be self-obsessed and autocratic.Women on the other hand leave men in the starting blocks when it comes to teamwork and communicating with staff.In Britain more than 61% of those surveyed said men did not make better bosses than women.Female managers use time more effectively, with many of those surveyed commenting that juggling commitments is a familiar practice for women with a home and a family.Female managers also appear to make good financial sense for penny-pinching companies: most people, of either sex, would rather ask for a rise from a man.16.What is the source of the data mentioned in the passage ?A.A magazineB.A newspaperC.A government white paperD.A university Journal17.According to the passage,malemanager tend to ________. A.be moreselfless in teamworkB.ask more questionswhen surveyed C.beconsiderate leaders incompany D.claim thecontribution18.What can be found after comparing the findings in the UK and US ?5A.The findings areirrelevant B.Thefindings arecontradictory C.Thefindings match eachother D.The findingsare not significant19.What does the phrase “penny-pinching companies ” means ?panies that lack moneypanies that are verygenerous panies thatearn a lot of moneypanies that areunwilling to use money20.What’s the main idea ofthe passage ? A.Men arebetter managers than womenB.Women are better managersthan men C.Male managersare more willing to learnD.Male leaders and females leaders have different advantagesFormatⅡ(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)Directions: In the following passage, some sentences have been removed.
