Each one is carrying a small basket with a single egg inside. Soon more students join them-each one of them is also carrying a basket with an egg. The eggs in a basket are part of a new school program that helps young people understand that having a baby is a great duty.At the beginning of the program, the teacher puts the students in pairs-one girl and one boy. Each pair gets an egg, which they must take care of for two weeks. For those fourteen days, the students have to take care of the eggs as though they were real babies. Students whose eggs get broken have to start the two weeks all over again with a new egg.One person in each pair must have the egg with him or her at all times-twenty-four hours a day. At no time can they let the egg be out of sight. "If a teacher catches you without your egg," said one student, "she makes you go get it. They are really strict." The teachers also make the students spend half an hour each day sitting with the egg and just watching it. That can get pretty boring. But it's also something that parents spend a lot of time doing.Children say that the program has helped them understand the duties involved inhaving a child. "It was really hard," said one student, "You had to think all the time about the egg."(5)、From the last paragraph, we can infer that ______.Aa program is the only way to educate childrenBone has to think about a program all the timeConly one child grasps the purpose of the programDthe program is of help to children's understanding of parents正确答案是：D23、Mr. Liu, _______ at university in Changchun, works at Changhou Company now.

Our reactions help to determine whether our child will repeat his behavior or whether he will do something different. This statement is a very important part of a principle of behavioral psychology.The principle states that a behavior is influenced or affected by how the environment ---- people, places and things ---- immediately responds to the behavior. Perhaps without realizing it, you have used this principle many times.On the occasion when you told your child what a good boy he was after he cleaned up his room, you used the principle. When you sent your child to his room for fighting with his brother, you used the principle. When I gave Kim a cookie after she started to cry, I used the principle. In each of these examples, a particular behavior occurred first ----cleaning up a room, fighting, and crying.In addition, there was a reaction to each behavior ---- the child was praised, sent to his room, or given a cookie. By these actions, we have influenced the previous behaviors and have helped to determine whether those behaviors will occur again in the future.(2) On what kind of principle is the lecture based?AA principle in chemistry.BA principle in behavioral psychology.CA principle in physics.DA principle in geology.正确答案是：B36、— _______ —Yes, I’ll be happy to cash it for you.ADo you need any cash?BAre you happy with the cash?CAre you happy to cash it for me?DMay I cash a traveler’s check here?正确答案是：D37、—Bring me the bill, please.— _______AYou are welcome.BPlease wait for a moment, sir.CI'll hurry up.DBe quick正确答案是：B38、We go to the cinema ______ a week.AoftenBonceCseldomDusually正确答案是：B39、If you _______ me, I shall be very grateful to you.Amust helpBwill helpCmay helpDneed help正确答案是：B40、Unemployment is not the _______— the real problem is the decline in public morality.

People play different games in winter and summer.Games and sports often grow out of people's work and everyday activities. The Arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life; they use them in their sports, too.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.Some sports or games go back to thousands of years ago, like running or jumping. Chinese boxing, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but aftera game they often become good friends. Sports help to train a person's character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace.(4)、From this passage we can see that according to the author sports and games are significant to our life in many respects.A错误B正确正确答案是：B2、Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history, greater than what only a few other men have achieved. An American university president once commented that Einstein had created a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on-but even ordinary men understand now that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.By 1914 the young Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited opportunities for study, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by the First World War.Einstein hated violence. The misery of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.In the years following World War I honors were increasingly heaped on him. He became the head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Noble Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.(1)、The main idea of Paragraph 1 is the change in human thought produced by Einstein. A错误B正确正确答案是：B3、In 1920, barely out of his teens, Alfred Hitchcock went to work for an American film company which had opened a studio in Islington, London. His first job at the studio was writing captions （脚本）for silent movies. Within two years, he was writing scripts（剧本）and working as an assistant director.For the rest of the 1920s, Hitchcock worked on one film after another in Britain and Germany. Filming was often a rough-and-ready（匆忙做成的）affair and the assistant director was required to step in and plug gaps. A cameraman went missing, Hitchcock became a cameraman. A scene needed rewriting, Hitchcock rewrote it. Someone needed to be in charge of money when the film crew was on location, Hitchcock looked after the money.At the same time, this being the era of silent movies, Hitchcock was learning the language of cinema: telling a story－not through dialogue, but through visual images（视觉影象）. This led to his success later.When he began to direct his own films, first in Britain and later in Hollywood, he was determined to make films that held the audience's attention and kept tension（紧张感）. He succeeded. Hitchcock's ability to put you on the edge of your seat makes him one of the greatest makers of suspense（悬念）movies.(5)、He had taken up different jobs before he succeeded.A错误B正确正确答案是：B4、In 1920, barely out of his teens, Alfred Hitchcock went to work for an American film company which had opened a studio in Islington, London.

Then everything changed. During the Fourth of July weekend, residents woke up one morning to find that the lake had disappeared.Some people didn't believe what they were seeing. They looked again, but to their amazement they found they had been right the first time. The lake was simply no longer there. In its place was a big muddy hole, 30 feet deep. It was as if the lake had been a giant bathtub and someone had pulled the plug.The lake's owner, Joseph Unanue, did indeed pull the plug. That's exactly what happened. The dam that held back the water to form the lake was falling apart, sogovernment officials ordered him to repair it. They issued him a permit to lower the dam level "five feet or more."He did much more. Mr. Unanue found repairs to the dam would cost $100,000. He didn't want to spend that much, so he opened the dam and lowered the water level until the lake was completely emptied. People living above the dam ended up with no lake. People living below the dam ended up with tons of mud and lots of dead fish. Everyone involved was angry with Mr. Unanue.Area residents believed Mr. Unanue acted out of spite（恶意）. They said he wanted to get back at them because the town wouldn't let him develop an amusement park on the lakeshore. When he couldn't build his park, he just went away and took his lake with him.(2)、The lake was compared to a bathtub because it could be emptied out.A错误B正确正确答案是：B。

It may be a free period or a regular wait, say in the queue for a bus or meal --- even while eating breakfast. One famous surgeon always made it a rule to spend at least 15 minutes on general reading before he went to sleep each night. Whether he went to bed at 10 pm or 2:30 am made no difference. Even if you cannot keep to this kind of discipline, it is a good idea to make sure you always have a general interest book in your pocket. Don’t forget it should be a book which entertains you and the English must not be too difficult for you.Nearly all “speed reading” courses have a “pacing” element --- some timing device which lets the student know how many words a minute he is reading. Y ou can do this simply by looking at your watch every 5 or 10 minutes and noting down the page number you have reached. Check the average number of words per page for the particular book you are busy reading. Well, this is difficult at first. A friend can help by timing you over a set period, or you can read within hearing distance of a public clock which strikes the quarter hours. Pace yourself every three or four days, always with the same kind of easy, general interest book. Y ou should soon notice your habitual w.p.m. rate creeping up.6. The passage recommends setting aside C for reading practice.A. two hours a dayB. one hour a dayC. 15 minutes or half an hour a dayD. three minutes a day before meal7. One famous surgeon always made it a rule to read B .A. 15 minutes at 10 pm each nightB. for at least 15 minutes at bedtimeC. no matter it was early or lateD. whenever he had a spare moment8. It is a good idea always to carry in your packet D .A. a book you will never forgetB. a serious bookC. several books of various kindsD. an easy and interesting English book9. According to the passage, a “pacing” device A.A. measures a student’s reading speedB. is not included in most speed reading coursesC. is an aid to vocabulary learningD. should be used whenever we read alone10. Looking at your watch every 5 or 10 minutes A.A. avoids the need for reading fasterB. is not the same as pacingC. is not easy at firstD. helps you to remember the page number you were at last timePassage2Old Japanese living alone can now hire a “family” for lunch and a few hours’ pleasant talk. Just give them a telephone call and ask for, say, a daughter, son-in-law and grandchild. They will show up at your door, and greet you emotionally as if they hadn’t seen you for years.Some 15 couples have so far hired “families”. “We have nearly 80 people on the waiting list.” Said the president of the company that offers such services, “What is common about these senior citizens is that they are thirsty for human love. We are helping them make their dreams come true.”Where once big families with three or more generations living together were common, now numbers are reducing fast. In cities there are very few indeed. Many old people see their families only rarely, if at all. This may be because the children’s bosses have sent them to a distant city, even abroad, or just because busy family members cannot find time to visit their parents.“We’ve seen many cases in which parent-children relations are not in a happy state,” company president continues. “When a son finally visits his parents after a long while, it is often just to ask for money or for them to let him have their property(财产)early.”Loneliness is not a one-way street. “One young mother came to us to ask about grandparents,” he added.The company is now developing into other fields. Their services include providing “employees” for businessmen to scold and “lovers” for young people unlucky in love. Company’s“lovers” for hire is not a service to be misunderstood, company president makes clear.“Y ou shouldn’t think about our lover too romantically,” he said, “She’s there to act as an adviser on how to find a girlfriend.”11.

Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began tofeel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case? Maybe, in this case, she should have run one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have … Would the doctors on the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon in the area, she usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgment? For the first time, Dr. Ginoux felt lonely and isolated.The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the more depressed she became. As hope fa ded, she wondered if a “country doctor” had a realistic chance of being accepted by the American College of Surgeons.(1).Dr. Ginoux was working in _______.A. a large cityB. the American College of SurgeonsC. an area far from any big cityD. a selective organization(2).The application forms must include ___.A. the decision procedureB. a record of all the operations.C. the best techniqueD. a list of advice and judgments(3).It was most probable that Dr. Ginoux was ____A. a member in that organizationB. a well-trained surgeonC. a graduate from the American College of SurgeonsD. a distinguished surgeon in America(4).When she was filling the application froms, Dr. Ginoux began to be____.A. realisticB. distinguishedC. perplexedD. decisive(5).When filling the forms, Dr. Ginoux felt depressed because _____.A. she didn’t perform enough operationsB. some operations were unsuccessfulC. she didn’t get advice from the selection committeeD. she was doubtful about her operations2.An important new industry, oil refining, grew after the Civil War. Crude oil, or petroleum – a dark, thick ooze from the earth – had been known for hundreds of years. But little use had ever been madeof it. In the 1850’s Samuel M. Kier, a manufactur er in the western Pennsylvania, began collecting the oil from local seepages andrefining it into kerosene, Refining, like smelting, is a process of removing impurities from a raw material.Kerosene was used to light lamps. It was a cheap substitute for whale oil, which was becoming harder to get. Soon there was a large demand for kerosene. People began to search for new supplies of petroleum.The first oil well was drilled by E. L. Drake, a retired railroad conductor. In 1859 he began drilling in Titusville, Pennsylvania. The whole venture seemed so impractical and foolish that onlookers called it “Drake’s Folly”. But when he had drilled down about 70 feet (21 meters), Drake struck oil. His well began to yield 20 barrels ofcrude oil a day.News of Drake’s success brought oil prospectors to the scene. By the early 1860’s these wildcatters were drilling for “black gold” all over western Pennsylvania. The boom rivaled the California gold rush of 1848 in its excitement and Wild West atmosphere. And it brought far more wealth to the prospectors than any gold rush.Crude oil could be refined into many products. For some years kerosene continued to be the principal one. It was sold in grocery stores and door-to-door. In the 1880’s refiners learned how to make other petroleum products such as waxes and lubricating oils. Petroleum was not then used to make gasoline or heating oil.(1).Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Oil Refining: A Historical PerspectiveB.

Each one is carrying a small basket with a single egg inside. Soon more students join them-each one of them is also carrying a basket with an egg. The eggs in a basket are part of a new school program that helps young people understand that having a baby is a great duty. At the beginning of the program, the teacher puts the students in pairs-one girl and one boy. Each pair gets an egg, which they must take care of for two weeks. For those fourteen days, the students have to take care of the eggs as though they were real babies. Students whose eggs get broken have to start the two weeks all over again with a new egg. One person in each pair must have the egg with him or her at all times-twenty-four hours a day. At no time can they let the egg be out of sight. If a teacher catches you without your egg, said one student, she makes you go get it. They are really strict. The teachers also make the students spend half an hour each day sitting with the egg and just watching it. That can get pretty boring. But it's also something that parents spend a lot of time doing. Children say that the program has helped them understand the duties involved inhaving a child. It was really hard, said one student, You had to think all the time about the egg.
