It is said that our body movements communicate about 50 percent of what we really mean while words only express 7 percent. So, while your mouth is closed, your body is just saying...Arms. How you hold your arms shows how open and receptive you are to people you meet. If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of taking on whatever comes your way. Outgoing people generally use their arms with big movements, while quieter people keep them close to their bodies. If someone upsets you, just cross your arms to show you’re unhappy!Head. When you want to appear confident, keep your head level. If you are a monitor in class, you can also take on this position when you want your words to be taken seriously. However, to be friendly in listening or speaking, you must move your head a little.Legs. Your legs tend to move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies. If you are at interviews, try to keep them still!Posture (姿势). A good posture makes you feel better about yourself. If you are feeling down, you normally don’t sit straight, with your shoulders inwards. This makes breathing more difficult, which can make you feel nervous or uncomfortable.Mouth. When you are thinking, you often purse your lips. You might also use this position to hold back a n angry comment you don’t wish to show. However, it will probably still be noticed, and people will know you’re not pleased.Face. When you lie, you might put on a falseface. But that expression would crack briefly, allowing displays of true emotions such as happiness, sadness, disgust (厌恶) and fear to come through.36. When someone is keeping his arms behind his back, he tries to tell you that .A. he is outgoingB. he is angryC. he is not afraidD. he is cool37. If you want to appear confident, you should .A. move your arms a lotB. keep your head levelC. move your head a littleD. cross your arms38. Which of the following movements tells someone is nervous?A. Moving around a lot more than normal.B. Not sitting straight with the shoulders inwards.C. Having the lips pursed to hold back an angry comment.D. Keeping the arms to the sides of the body.39. What can we infer from the passage?A. Different people in different countries must have the same understanding of the same body movement.B. Body language can express more meanings than words do in communication.C. We cannot communicate with others without words.D. It’s not polite to use body language in formal communication.40. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. Body language, the most commonly used languageB. Arms tell more than legsC. Facial expressions tell the truthD. One simple movement lets slip secrets of mindBGaochun County, a picturesque county in east China’s Jiangsu Province, was expected to be named the first “slow city” in China in November this year.The arrival of Pier Giorgio Oliveti, chairman of the World Slow City Union, raised the idea of a slow city, which has become popular all over the world. In Shanghai, Oliveti said that the slow city movement was founded in his hometown of Italy in October of 1999. “Italy is the birthplace of slow food, which emphasizes nutrition, flavor and taste,” he said.Oliveti said the idea of a slow city has also expanded constantly during its development, which has led to some special requirements today. For instance, the slow city always emphasizes a small town and its residents, keeps a unique identity, characteristics and keeps the natural state of the town. It adopts technology without losing traditional customs and offers to provide a clean environment, a fair deal and healthy food for all. In addition, the slow city has to be eco-friendly with a population of no more than 50,000, and it must be deeply devoted to protecting and keeping the purity of the natural environment as well as greatly promoting and carrying out sustainable (可持续的) development technologies.The ecological tour of Gaochun County includes an area of about 49 square kilometers with around 20,000 residents. It has a lot of tea, bamboo fruits, herbs (草本植物) and other green foodecological bases as well as rich folk culture resources.There are now 135 slow cities in 24 countries across the world that have been named since the founding of the organization in 1999.41. To qualify to be called a slow city, a city must .a. have less and low-speed trafficb. be environmentally friendlyc. keep the natural state of the townd. stop the traditional ways of doing thingse. have a population within 50, 000A. a, b and d.B. a, b and c.C. b, c and e.D. c, d and e.42. We can conclude that slow city movement aims to .A. protect the environment of local schoolsB. control the population of big citiesC. give people more time to travelD. improve quality of life43. Which of the following is NOT true about the slow city movement?A. The slow city movement was started in Italy.B. “Slow city” is a movement to eat slowly in Italian cities.C. The slow city movement has a long history of over 20 years.D. Only some cities can be considered slow ones.44. The slow city movement implies that .A. people wish to live a traditional lifeB. people begin to think about the negative effects of city developmentC. people are tired of living in urban areas due to great pressureD. people need to try a new adventurous style of life45. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?A. The first slow city in ChinaB. Slow cities in the worldC. Slow cities and the slow city movementD. How can we make our city a slow city?CAn evergreen tree is a Christmas tradition in many American homes. The tree is usually a pine or fir dressed with lights and other colorful decorations.Families might buy a cut tree or go to a tree farm and cut one down themselves. Some people bring a live tree in a pot into their home for the holidays and then put it back outdoors. Some people rent a Christmas tree. Companies might bring the same live tree to the same family year after year. Or the tree might get planted in a park or someplace else where it could help the environment.There are some trees that can be reused year after year because they are made of plastic or metal. Or, instead of a tree, some people have a small, sweet-smelling rosemary (迷迭香) plant, cutto look like a little Christmas tree.Another plant that many people connect with Christmas is the poinsettia (一品红). Poinsettias are native to Mexico. They can be white or pink, but most are bright red. They are named after the first American ambassador to Mexico. Joel Poinsett liked them enough to send some back to the United States. Babies or pets that chew on poinsettias might get sick. But experts say the plant is not as poisonous as some people think.Like millions of other houses, the home of America’s first president is decorated for Christmas. George Washington’s Mount Vernon Estate is in Virginia. Visitors can hear stories about what Christmas was like at Mount Vernon in the eighteenth century. The museum where visitors begin their tour is decorated with Christmas trees.46. What is the text mainly about?A. The customs of Christmas in America.B. The decoration of Christmas trees.C. The tradition of Christmas trees in America.D. The history of Christmas in America.47. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. Americans are not allowed to cut a tree for ChristmasB. Americans have various ways to get a Christmas treeC. a Christmas tree must be planted after it is usedD. every family will change their Christmas trees every year48. People plant their Christmas trees somewhere after Christmas to .A. use it again next yearB. save money on Christmas treesC. help protect the environmentD. hope for the best in the coming year49. Joel Poinsett sent some poinsettias back to the United States because .A. he wanted to give his people another kind of Christmas treesB. he wanted his people to remember himC. he wanted to plant them in his homeD. he was very fond of them50. Which of the following is TRUE about poinsettias?A. American people like them.B. They are considered to be very poisonous by experts.C. They are not widely used as Christmas trees.D. They can only make the old and pets sick.DIf I left the decisions up to my daughter, she’d never play competitive sports. In her first season of forced sports, when she was four years old, she cried every time she kicked the soccerball. She stopped on the way from the parking lot to the soccer field, wailing that her legs hurt. And worse, she cried, “I’m sweating!”A few years have passed, and she just completed her fourth soccer season. She’s starting her second year of softball. Sports trophies (奖杯) line her window platform.I learned from the years of football, soccer and baseball in my son’s youth that kids need to experience being on a team, and they might not beg you to sign them up. You might have to force it on them.They need to learn about sacrificing, and about commitment. If you read parenting articles out there, you’ll find plenty of folks who shy away from competitive sports because they want their kid to always feel like a winner. I don’t know what kind of idyllic (田园的) life these parents must be leading, but in m y world, I’m thinking I need to sign my kids up for something that will teach them about life’s devastating disappointments.Hence, I think my daughter picked up some good life lessons when her team lost almost every game in the last season. Sometimes life is like that. Sometimes you get a bad call, the people on your team suck, you’re tired and don’t feel like playing, the coach is mean to you, someone scratches your face and steals the ball. And the next week, you put on your uniform, and try your best.51. What attitude does the author have towards competitive sports?A. He supports children in taking part in competitive sports.B. He doesn’t like competitive sports himself.C. He doubts whether competitive sports can really benefit children.D. He believes competitive sports are not suitable for young children.52. What do we know about the author’s daughter?A. She hates the author signing her up for competitive sports.B. She hasn’t realized the importance of competitive sports.C. She wants to give up competitive sports.D. She now likes competitive sports.53. What should we do if a child doesn’t like competitive sports, according to the author?A. Get him interested in sports first.B. Sign him up for competitive sports.C. Leave him alone.D. Give him some trophies first.54. In what way is life similar to sports?A. They both mean a lot to children.B. They both need great courage.C. They are both full of hard times.D. They both can teach children good lessons.55. We can infer from the fourth paragraph that competitive sports.A. can destroy a child’s feeling of successB. are sometimes too cruel to childrenC. have already been accepted by most parentsD. can prepare kids for the realities of life四、书面表达(共两节，满分45分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分)It has been proved over and over again that patience is a virtue that not so many persons hold, it is also very true that in most cases haste (匆忙) ruins everything. It’s high time that you learnt to be patient as it is an important quality for those who want to get success. If you are always in a hurry and never think twice before taking a decision, then you risk losing important things and you are the one who suffers.One of the conditions to get a good job and also to keep it is the patience. If you make decisions without consulting (磋商) with someone else then there are two reasons: the first one: you are so well prepared in your field that you are always right and what you decide is the best and the second on e: you don’t think carefully and you take everything for granted. As a result of that, and your image will be ruined.Hasty climbers often have sudden falls, especially when they are young and inexperienced. When you are young you feel that you know all. However, when you try to solve new situations you’ll realize you don’t know as much as you think you knew. Time helps you gain experience and improves your abilities. All it takes is a little more patience and more accepting others’ advice.It takes time to learn to admit you may be wrong. Don’t rush into things and always think the consequences of your actions.56. What are the two main reasons why people make a decision without consulting with others? (Please answer within 30 words.)57. T ranslate the underlined sentence in this passage into Chinese.58. F ill in the blank with proper words or phrases. (Please answer within 8 words.)59. W hich sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?Try to be more patient as soon as possible because it is necessary for a success.60.

ReadingPassage OnePeople living on parts of the south coast of England face a serious problem. In 1993, the owners of a large hotel and of several houses discovered, to their horror that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea had eaten into the soft limestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were studying the problem, the hotel and several houses disappeared altogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea.Erosion（侵蚀）of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people, forecasting the year in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea.Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes. Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases, this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say, until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile, if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future, apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home.1. What is the cause of the problem that people living on parts of the south coast of England face?A) The disappearance of hotels, houses and gardens.B) The experts’ lack of knowledge.C) The rising of the sea level.D) The washing-away of limestone cliffs.2. The erosion of the white cliffs in the south of England ___________________.A) will soon become a problem for people living in central EnglandB) has now become a threat to the local residentsC) is quickly changing the map of EnglandD) can be stopped if proper measures are taken3. The experts’ study on the problem of erosion can _____________________.A) lead to its eventual solutionB) provide an effective way to slow it downC) help to prevent it from worseningD) warn people whose homes are in danger4. It is not feasible to build sea defenses to protect against erosion because _____________.A) It is too costly and will endanger neighboring areas.B) The government is too slow in taking action.C) They will be easily knocked down by waves and currents.D) House agents along the coast do not support the idea.5. According to the author, when buying a house along the south coast of England, people should __________.A) be aware of the potential danger involvedB) guard against being cheated by the house agentC) take the quality of the house into considerationD) examine the house carefully before making a decisionPassage TwoThere are people in Italy who can’t stand soccer. Not all Canadians love hockey. A similar situation exists in America, where there are those individuals you may be one of them who yawn or even frown when somebody mentions baseball. Baseball to them means boring hours watching grown men in funny tight outfits standingaround in a field staring away while very little of anything happens. They tell you it’s a game better suited to the 19th century, slow, quiet, and gentlemanly. These are the same people you may be one of them who love football because there’s the sport that glorifies “the hit”.By contrast, baseball seems abstract, cool, silent, still.On TV the game is fractured into a dozen perspectives, replays, and close-ups. The geometry of the game, however, is essential to understanding it. You will contemplate the game from one point as a painter does his subject; you may, of course, project yourself into the game. It is in this projection that the game affords so much space and time for involvement. The TV won’t do it for you.Take, for example, the third baseman. You sit behind the third base dugout and you watch him watching home plate. His legs are apart, knees flexed. His arms hang loose. He does a lot of this. The skeptic still cannot think of any other sports so still, so passive. But watch what happens every time the pitcher throws: the third baseman goes up on his toes, flexes his arms or brings the glove to a point in front of him, takes a step right or left, backward or forward, perhaps he glances across the field to check his first baseman’s position. Suppose the pitch is a ball. “Nothing happened,” you say. “I could have had my eyes closed.”The skeptic and the innocent must play the game. And this involvement in the stands is no more intellectual than listening to music is. Watch the third baseman. Smooth the dirt in front of you with one foot; smooth the pocket in your glove; watch the eyes of the batter, the speed of the bat, the sound of horsehide on wood. If football is a symphony of movement and theatre, baseball is chamber music, a spacious interlocking of notes, chores and responses.6. The passage is mainly concerned with .A) the different tastes of people for sportsB) the different characteristics of sportsC) the attraction of footballD) the attraction of baseball7. Those who don’t like baseball may complain that .A) it is only to the taste of the oldB) it involves fewer players than footballC) it is not exciting enoughD) it is pretentious and looks funny8. The author admits that .A) baseball is too peaceful for the youngB) baseball may seem boring when watched on TVC) football is more attracting than baseballD) baseball is more interesting than football9. By stating “I could have had my eyes closed.” the author means (4th paragraph last sentence).A) The third baseman would rather sleep than play the gameB) Even if the third baseman closed his eyes a moment ago, it could make no different to the resultC) The third baseman is so good at baseball that he could finish the game with eyes closed all the time and do his work wellD) The consequent was too bad he could not bear to see it10. We can safely conclude that the author .A) likes footballB) hates footballC) hates baseballD) likes baseballKeys: 1-5 6-10Part 2.Translation:中国教育工作者早就认识到读书对于国家的重要意义，有些教育工作者2003年就建议设立全民读书日。
