This was in 1868, before they prohibited cigarette ads from American television. Darrell Winfield was watching the crew set up the equipment. The scene included an actor crossing a river on horseback, but when the time came to shoot, the man was too drunk to ride. Someone from the crew saw Winfield and asked him if he would ride the horse for 50 dollars. “Hell,” said Winfield, “for 50 bucks, I'll jump that damn horse over the moon!”To people in many countries, Winfield is just a familiar but nameless face, a simple cowboy with an advertising message about a connection between the West and a brand of cigarettes. Few people know that he is 55, a family man who's been married to the same woman for 37 years and has 5 children and 7 grandchildren. Most surprisingly, he's a real, working cowboy who raises horses in his ranch in Wyoming.One of the most striking things about the Marlboro Man is that success hasn't changed him much. He says that complete strangers sometimes come up to him and say, “I've met you,know you from somewhere. ”Whenever it happens, he says that he gets embarrassed.(1)、Marlboro commercials were allowed on television in America before 1868.A:TB:F答案:A(2)、The word “prohibited” in the first paragraph mean “forbidden”.A:TB:F答案:A(3)、When they filmed the ad, Winfield was too drunk.A:TB:F答案:B(4)、From the passage, we know that Winfield was a rich man.A:TB:F答案:B(5)、When people recognized Winfield, he felt uncomfortable.A:TB:F答案:A2、In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. Ifyou telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person, who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.(1)、What is the main idea of this passage? ________A:It is not customary to telephone someone in the morning and in sleeping hours in the U.S.B:The role of time in social life over the world.C:If people are late, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S.D:Not every country treats the concept of time as the same.答案:B(2)、What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours? _______ A:A matter of work.B:A matter of life or death.C:You want to see him or her.D:You want to make an appointment with him or her.答案:B(3)、Which of the following time is proper if you want to make an appointment with your friend in the U.S. A.?A:at 7:00 amB:at 4:00 pmC:at the midnightD:at 4 am答案:B(4)、Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? ________A:In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date.B:No misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures about the concept of time. C:It may be considered foolish to make an appointment well in advance in the U.S.A..D:Promptness is valued highly in American life.答案:D(5)、From the passage we can safely infer that _______A:it's a matter of life or death if you call someone in day time.B:the meaning of time differs in different parts of the world.C:it makes no difference in the U.S. whether you are early or late for a business party.D:if a person is late for a date, he needn't make some explanation.答案:B三、词汇与语法1、There have been many ________ in their marriage but they still love each other.A:right and wrongB:back and forthC:ups and downsD:right and left答案:C2、I don't know _______ to deal with such matter.A:whatB:howC:whichD:/答案:B3、As the bus came round the corner, it ran ______ a big tree by the roadside.A:intoB:onC:overD:up答案:A4、When Lily came home at 5 p.m. yesterday, her mother _______ dinner in the kitchen.A:cookedB:was cookingC:cooksD:has cooked答案:B5、The young lady coming over to us _____ our English teacher; the way she walks tells us that! A:must beB:can beC:would be答案:A四、完型填空Modern zoos are very different from zoos that were built fifty years ago. At that time, zoos were places 1 people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. The animals lived in cages that were made 2 concrete with iron bars, cages that were easy to keep clean.Unfortunately for the animals, the cages were small and impossible to hide in. The zoo environment was anything but natural. 3 the zoo keepers took good care of the animals and fed them well, many of the animals did not thrive; they behaved in strange ways, and they often became ill.In modern zoos, people can see animals in more natural habitats. The animals are given more 4 in large areas so that they can live more comfortably as they would in nature. Even the appearance of zoos has changed. Trees and grass grow in the cages, and streams of water flow 5 the areas that animals live in.(1)、A:ofB:AlthoughC:whereD:overE:freedom答案:C(2)、A:ofB:AlthoughC:whereD:overE:freedom答案:A(3)、A:ofB:AlthoughC:whereD:overE:freedom答案:B(4)、A:ofB:AlthoughD:overE:freedom答案:E(5)、A:ofB:AlthoughC:whereD:overE:freedom答案: D五、英译汉(1)、Please give this book to whoever comes first.(2)、Some football teams will have games there.(3)、Are you fond of music?(4)、What kind of life do most people enjoy?六、写作Instructions:建议你在30分钟内,根据下面所给的题目和提纲用英语写出一篇不少于80词的短文。

Passage 1The French Revolution broke out in 1789. At the time France was in a crisis. The government was badly run and people‟s lives were miserable.King Louis XIV tried to control the national parliament and raise more taxes. But his effort failed.He ordered his troops to Versailles. The people thought that Louis intended to put down the Revolution by force. On July 14, 1789, they stormed and took the Bastille, where political prisoners were kept. Ever since that day, July 14 has been the French National Day. Louis tried to flee the country in 1792 to get support from Austria and Prussia. However, he was caught and put in prison. In September 1792, the monarchy was abolished. In the same year, Louis was executed. A few months later his wife, Marie also had herhead cut of. The Revolution of France had frightened the other kings of Europe. Armies from Austria and Prussia began to march against France. The French raised republican armies to defend the nation. The Revolution went through a period of terror. Thousands of people lost their lives. In the end, power passed to Napoleon Bonaparte. (190 words)6. This passage is mainly about King Louise XVI.A. TB.

The French Revolution brought some impact on the other European kings.A. TB. FPassage 2A foreigner‟s first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is in a rush—often under pressure. City people appear always to be hurrying to get where they are going restlessly, seeking attention in a store,and elbowing others as they try to complete their errands(任务). Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in this country.Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are waiting for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you don‟t, waiters will hurry you.You also find drivers will be abrupt and that people will push past you. You will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small courtesies with strangers. Don‟t take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain courtesy point.The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the American system of values, patience is not a high priority. Many of us have what might be called “a short fuse”. We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some return be this in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from lands where time is looked upon differently may find this matter of pace to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call, for example, they will miss the ritual socializing-that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee they may be traditional in their own country. They may miss leisurely business chats in a cafe or coffeehouse. Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks. We seek out evidence of past performance rather than evaluate a business colleague through social courtesies. Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly. (348 words)11.Which of the following statements is wrong? _______A.Americans seem to be always under pressure.B.Americans attach less importance to patience.C.A mericans don‟t care much about ritual socializing.D.Americans are impolite to their business colleagues.12.In the fourth paragraph, “a high priority” means ______.A.a less important thing B.a first concernC.a good business D.an attractive gift13.Americans evaluate a business colleague ______.A.through social courtesy B.through prolonged business talksC.by establishing business relations D.by learning about their past performance 14.This passage mainly talks about ______.A.how Americans treasure their timeB.how busy Americans are every dayC.how Americans do business with foreignersD.what American way of life is like15.We can infer from the passage that the author‟s tone in writing i s ______.A.critical B.ironical C.appreciative D.objective第三部分:词汇与结构(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)此部分共有5个未完成的句子,针对每个句子中未完成的部分有4个选项,请从A.B.C.D四个选项中选出正确选项。
