Tales of the supernatural are common in all parts of Britain. In particular, there was (and perhaps still is) a belief in fairies(仙女). Not all of these 21 are the friendly, people-loving characters that appear in Disney films, and in some folktales they are 22 and cause much human suffering. This is true in the tales about the Changeling. These tell the story of a mother whose baby grows 23 and pale and has changed so much that it is almost 24 to the parents. It was then 25 that the fairies had come and stolen the baby away and 26 the human baby with a fairy Changeling. There were many ways to prevent this from happening: hanging a knife over the baby’s head while he slept or covering him with some of his father’s clothes were just two of the recommended 27 . However, hope was not lost even if the baby had been 28 . In those cases there was often a way to get the 29 baby back. You could 30the Changeling on the fire--then it would rise up the chimney, and you would hear the sound of fairies’ laughter and soon after you would find your own child safe and sound nearby.21.

B4, we usd 2go2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & 3 kds FTF.”The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages. Text messages (also called SMS) through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other. Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called “texting.”A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short. In addition, typing on the small keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so it'scommon to make words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like “r” for “are,”“u” for “you,” and “2”for “to.”Several letters can also represent a phrase, like “lol”for “laughing out loud.”Another characteristic of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling “please”as “pls.”Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers. The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing that way was more comfortable for her. (The essay said, “My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three kids face to face.”)Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always develop, and this is just another way in which English is changing. Other people believe texting will disappear soon.

He was a man famous for his escapes from prison cells, from wooden boxes floating in rivers, from locked tanks full of water. He appeared in theaters all over Europe and America. Crowds came to see the great Houdini and his “magic” tricks.Of course, his secret was not magic, or supernatural powers. It was simply strength. He had the ability to move his toes as well as he moved his fingers. He could move his body into almost any position he wanted.Houdini started working in the entertainment world when he was 17 in 1891. He and his brother Theo performed card tricks in a club in New York. They called themselves the Houdini Brothers. When Harry married in 1894, he and his wife Bess worked together as magician and assistant. But for a long time they were not very successful. Then Harry performed his first prison escape, in Chicago in 1898. Harry persuaded a detective to let him try to escape from the prison, and he invited the local newspapermen to watch.It was the publicity that came from this that started Harry Houdini’s success.Harry had fingers trained to escape from handcuffs and toestrained to escape from ankle chains. But his biggest secret was how he unlocked the prison doors. Every time he went into the prison cell, Bess gave him a kiss for good luck and a small skeleton key, which is a key that fits many locks, passed quickly from her mouth to his.Harry used these prison escapes to build his fame. He arranged to escape from the local jail of every town he visited. In the afternoon, the people of the town would read about it in their local newspapers, and in the evening every seat in the local theater would be full. What was the result? Worldwide fame, anda name remembered today.1. According to the passage, Houdini’s success in prison escapes depends on ________.A. his magic tricks and unhuman powersB. his special tricks and a skeleton keyC. his unusual ability and a skeleton keyD. his unhuman talents and magic tricks2. In the fourth paragraph, the word “this” refers to ________.A. the previous sentenceB. “the publicity”C. the place, ChicagoD. the time, 18983. According to the passage, how did Houdini get the key which helped him unlock prison doors?A. He took the key from his wife’s mouth.B. His wife passed it to his hand while kissing him.C. His wife gave it to him by a magic trick.D. He got it in his mouth through a kiss by the wife.4. It can be inferred from the passage that Houdini became famous _________.A. when he was about 24B. when he was about 17C. after the year 1894D. before the year 18985. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. Houdini used to be a famous magician in the USA.B. Houdini was first recognized widely in Chicago.C. Houdini entered the entertainment world together with his wife.D. Houdini owed his great success to his small skeleton key.15,The Food and Drug Administration is, again, threatening to impose milk and meat from cloned animals on a public that opposes the technology and its products.Respected polls report that more than 60% of Americans think animal cloning is immoral, and that most people said they wouldn’t knowingly eat the products even if the FDA approved them. But because the FDA would allow cloned meat and milk to be sold without identifying labels, consumers wouldn’t be able to avoid them. The FDA has consistently tilted toward those who want cloned milk and meat in our food. Agency officials have repeatedly asserted that science shows cloned milk and meat are safe for humans. But theFDA has never published the complete scientific studies it says support that claim.The argument that cloning is safe for animals is unconvincing. Cloned meat and milk offer no public economic benefits. Having cloned cows produce more milk wouldn’t reduce milk prices. US farmers produce more milk than we drink, and the government is required to buy the surplus. Since 2000, dairy support programs have cost taxpayers more than $ 5 billion.Most important, this first decision to advance animal biotechnology raises ethical issues beyond the FDA’s expertise. Techniques used to clone animals will advance the ability to clone humans－and create animals with human genes. Neither the agency nor animal scientists are qualified to tell us whether and when it is ethically acceptable for humans to alter the essential nature of animals. We need a national discussion, including ethicists and religious leaders, to consider the wisdom of cloned and transgenic animals. Given the risk of unintended consequences, we should proceed cautiously. The president should halt further FDA action on cloning and set in motion a process for beginning this broader discussion.1．The author’s attitude towards cloning is __________. A．neutral B．opposed C．approving D．supportive2．In US many people buy cloned foods __________.A．to support the new technique B．because FDA approved themC．because they cannot tell which is cloned food D．because they cannot read the labels.3．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Because more milk is produced by cloned cows, the milk price is reduced.B．American farmers produce more milk than the people can consume. C．FDA approved that cloned food is safe for human beings. D．More and more people accept cloned milk and meat.4．From the text we know that cloning technique ___________. A．developed well enough to clone human beingsB．may cause unintended bad results to human beingsC．will bring more unexpected economic benefitsD．is supported by ethicists and religious leaders5．What’s the best title of this passage?A．Publice Is Against Cloned Food B．Benefits of Cloned Food C．Cloned Food Is Illegal D．Technique in Cloned Food16,Everyone agrees that it’s necessary to reduce carbon emissions (排放物) around the world. There is less agreement over exactly how nations should go about achieving a more carbon - free planet. Thus, the environmental equivalent of Elvis vs. the Beatles: cap - and - trade carbon emissions, or place a carbontax on all users? With cap - and - trade programs, governments limit the level of carbon produced by an industry. Companies that hold their emissions below the cap can sell their remaining allowance on a carbon market, while companies that go beyond their limit must purchase credits on that market. Carbon taxes are more straightforward: a set tax rate is placed on the consumption of carbon in any form - fossil-fuel electricity, gasoline - with the idea that raising the price will encourage industries and individuals to consume less. At the moment, cap - and - trade has the upper hand, since it serves as the backbone of the current Kyoto Protocol, and helped the U.S. reduce acid rain in the 1990s-but don't write off (勾销,取消) the tax just yet. . Supporters of the tax argue that a cap - and - trade system would be too difficult to administer - and too easily gamed by industries looking to sidestep emissions caps. Cap - and - trade advocators counter that like all other flat taxes, a carbon collection would relatively burden lower - income families, who spend a greater percentage of their income on energy than rich households.So which system will have a larger effect on carbon consumption?A 10% carbon tax might reduce the demand for carbon about 5 % or less, according to an analysis by the Carbon Tax Center, an environmental advocacy group. That may not be enough. Businesses and governments haven’t figured out how the two competing systems can work together, but in the end, the world may need both. 1．The passage focuses on .A．programs of collecting taxes B．systems of reducing carbon emissionsC．reasons for reducing carbon emissions D．contradictions between the two systems2．According to the cap - and - trade program, companies . A．are forbidden to produce carbon emissionsB．are allocated the same amount of carbon consumptionC．can sell their remaining allowance within their limits D．can sell the extra amount of carbon at a higher price 3．Carbon taxes work by .A．burdening well - off familiesB．encouraging industries to consume carbonC．raising the price for carbon consumptionD．limiting the carbon consumption of industries only 4．The underlined word “cap” in the second paragraph most likely refers to .A．limit B．credit C．level D．rate 5．We can learn from the passage .A．carbon taxes are difficult to carry outB．cap - and - trade plays a greater role at presentC．cap - and - trade will be preferable in the future D．carbon taxes will be preferable in the future17,Every year, we celebrate many special days----Mother’s Day, Father’s, and New Year’s Day. In some countries, there is a particular day for people to pull their leg with each other, which happens always before 12 o’clock a.m. In North America and parts of Europe, this day is known as April Fool’s Day, and is celebrated on April the first.Many believe that the French started April Fool’s Day. Centuries ago, New Year’s Day in Europe was April 1. In 1582, the calendar changed and King Charles IX of France moved it to January 1. But many people______________________________, and they still chose to keep April 1 as New Year’s Day. Many called these people ‘April Fools’ and played practical jokes and tricks on them. Over Time, April 1 became a day to have fun in France. It then spread to England and Scotland, and later, to North America.On April Fool’s Day, practical jokes are common. In the United States, for example, a person may move a friend’s clock ahead one hour, or switch the sugar and salt. In Scotland, April Fool’s Day lasts for two days. The second day is called ‘Taily Day’----for one’s ‘tail.’On this day, people might secretly put a sign saying‘kick me’on a person’s back or behind. Other countries have their own ‘Fool’s Day.’ In Spain and Mexico, people play tricks on each other on December 28. In India, it happens on March 31.In many countries around the world, April 1 is a day of fun. Practical jokes are common. There is a lot of laughter, and many shouts of ‘April Fool!’1. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words.)_____________________________________________________________ __________2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?It is believed that April Fool’s Day began in France._____________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ___________3.

Dutch researchers report.Dr. Mark G. Spigt of Maastricht University and his colleagues note that older people are often dehydrated(脱水)，partly because their sensation of thirst may be slow. On the other hand, the elderly can easily become overly hydrated, because their kidneys(肾) tend to work less efficiently. Keeping extra water reduce the levelof sodium(钠)in the body, which can have serious consequences. To investigate the general effects of increased fluid intake, the researchers examined data from a study involving 141 healthy men aged between 55 and 75. In random(随意的) order they were either advised to increase their water intake by a liter and a half per day, or were given a spoonful of syrup(糖浆) per day.After 6 months, the men urged to drink more water had managed to boost their daily fluid intake by an average of about a liter per day. There were no significant differences between the two groups in blood pressure or sodium level.The researchers thus concluded that the advice to increase fluid intake had no negative effects.Summing up, Spigt added, “It seems unreasonable to worry about the harmful effects of drinking extra water, he warned, “This does not mean that one can drink too much. Extreme intakes of water-more than 10 liters -can be harmful.1.The first paragraph is written to _________.A. attract readers’ attentionB. introduce some researchers to usC. introduce the topic of the passageD. tell us the result of a research2.According to Spigt and his colleagues, the elderly are often dehydrated _________.A. because their kidneys can’t work properlyB. because water can reduce the level of sodium in the body.C. because they need less water than before.D. partly because their feeling of thirst may be slow.3. Which of the following can explain the underlined word “boost”(in Paragraph 4)?A. IncreaseB. ReduceC. CompleteD. Require4.The main purpose of this passage is to tell people _________.A. elderly men like to drink more waterB. elderly men should drink more waterC. drinking extra water does no harm to elderly menD. drinking too much water does harm to people19,A Band plays in Lumley Park every Sunday afternoon. I often attend these open-air concerts if the weather is fine, because I find ita restful ways of passing time, and because the band plays many kinds of music: dance music, marching music, anything with a tune that you can whistle; you know what I mean.One Sunday, there was a blind girl in the front row of the audience, just behind the band-leader. She was about fourteen or fifteen years of age, I should think. She had been sitting down until about halfway through the programme, when the band started to play The Blue Danube(蓝色多瑙河) by Strauss. I’d never heard them play this particular piece before; and there was something magical about the way they played it then. They had only played a few bars whenthis blind girl stood up and began waving her arms about in time to the music, just as the band-leader himself was doing.After a while, I could see that more and more members of the band were watching the blind girl instead of the band-leader. And the leader must have noticed this himself, because he turned round and watched her, and saw that she was keeping perfect time. He was a very thoughtful man, that band-leader; I took my hat off to him. He moved to one side little by little so that the band could see the blind girl better, and after a while he stopped conducting altogether. The band knew the piece quite well, of course, so things weren’t likely to go seriously wrong. But she dept time beautifully, and she made it clear when she wanted certain passages to be loud or soft, just as the band-leader himself had done. Since then, to be quite honest, I’ve never heard The Blue Danube played better anywhere.I have seldom heard an audience clap more loudly than that audience, when the music was over. I should think they must have heard the noise on the other side of the town. When the blind girl sat down, even from where I was sitting I could see that there were tears running down her face.1.The speaker thought that attending the Sunday afternoon concerts was a pleasure because ___________.A. a band plays music in Lumley Park.B. he could pass the time in a peaceful way in fine weatherC. his favorite music could be played by the band in the open air.D. all of the above2. When the band was playing The Blue Danube, a blind girl who was sitting in the front row behind the band-leader ________.A. stood up to play with the bandB. stood up and waved her arms keeping perfect time by herselfC. played just as the band-leader was doingD. listened to the particular piece The Blue Danube3. While the blind girl was waving her hands to keep time, ___________.A. many more members of the band were still watching their band leader.B. the band leader stopped conducting after a while and took off his hat to the girl.C. the band kept playing wonderfully even without their band-leaderD. the audience preferred the blind girl to the band-leader.4. From what the speaker said, it can be inferred(推断) that__________.A. he not only respected the band-leader but also thought highly of the blind girl.B. he thought the blind girl was doing better than the band-leader.C. he regarded the band as the first class band even without anyone conductingD. with the blind girl conducting, the concert was much more wonderful20,Ever since I was a small girl in school, I’ve been aware of what the school textbooks say about Indians. I am an Indian and, naturally, am interested in what the schools teach about natives of this land.One day, I read that a delicacy(美味) of American Indian people was dried fish, which , according to the textbook, tasted “like an old shoe, or was like chewing on dried leather.” To this day I can remember my surprise, my anger and my sadness at reading these words. We called this wind-dried fish “sleet-shus”, and to us, it was our favorite delicacy and, indeed, did not taste like shoe leather, and didn’t rot our teeth and bring about the various dietary problem that trouble Indian people in modern times. It took many hours of long and hard work to cure the fish in just this particular fashion. Early fur traders and other non-Indians must have agreed, for they often had this food as they traveled around isolated areas.I brought the textbook home to show it to my father, leader of my tribe at that time. On this particular day, he told me in his wise and modest manner that the outside world did not understand Indian people, and that I should not let it prevent me from learning the good parts of education.At a later time in my life, I had brought a group of Indian people to the country fairgrounds to sell Indian-made arts and crafts. My group was excited to make some money by selling Indian handicrafts. We thanked the man who showed us to our booth and told him it was nice of him to remember the people of the Indian community. The man expanded a little and remarked that he liked Indian people. “In fact,” he went on to state, “we are bringing some professional Indians to do the show!”As we stood there in shock, listening to this uninformed outsider, I looked at my dear Indian companion, an eighty-year-old woman who could well remember the great chiefs of the tribe who once owned all the land of this country before the white man came bringing “civilization”, which included diseases and pollution. My friend said not a word, but took the hurt as Indian people have done for many year.Of course, we all knew that the “professional Indian” were not Indians at all, but dressed in leather and dancing their own dances. And, anyway, how does one become a “professional Indian”?1. Which of the following statements about “sleet-shus” is true?A. It tasted like an old shoe.B. Eating it was like chewing on dried leather.C. It was delicious but bad for our teeth.D. It must have brought pleasure to Indians as well as early business men.2. You can infer from the story that the writer __________.A. is proud of her heritage.B. doesn’t like textbooks.C. wants to become a “professional Indian”.D. thinks highly of modern civilization.3. What does the writer mean by saying “how does one become ‘a professional Indian’”?A. Only the Indians know how to become professional Indians.B. The outside civilization can help and Indian become a professional Indian.C. An Indian is a born professional Indian.D. The outside civilization can help white people become professional Indians.4. After reading the passage, you don’t know __________.A. why the writer went to the county fairB. what upset the writer and her friend at the county fairC. what the writer’s profession isD. the writer’s attitude to the so-called civilization5. This story is primarily about ___________.A. customs of native AmericansB. how textbooks describe native Americans.C. misunderstanding between people from different culturesD. how an Indian becomes a “professional Indian”试题答案1, D2, A3, A4, B5, A6, B7, D8, B9, B10, D11, C12, B13, D14, D15, C16, 1.C 2.A 3.B 4.B 5.A 6.A 7.D 8.B 9.A 10.C 11.B 12.C 13.B 14.D 15.C 16.D 17.A 18.B19.D 20.C17, 1.B 2.D 3.18, 1.C 2.D 3.A 4.C19, 1.D 2.B 3.C 4.A20, 1.D 2.A 3.C 4.C 5.C。
