Remember,too,that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you.The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease (not worried) but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation.You must take special care that you can be heard.【1】When you speak to the class,you should speak_______.A．as slowly as possible B．in a low voiceC．loudly D．forcefully【2】Usually.when you speak to the class,the class is_______.A．noisy B．quietC．having a rest D．serious【3】If you are having a conversation with an official,the most important thing for you is_______.A．to show your abilityB．to be very gentleC．to make sure that you can be heardD．to put the official at ease【4】The main idea of this passage is_______.A．that we should talk in different ways in different situationsB．that we must speak loudlyC．that we must keep silent at any timeD．that we must ta]k with the classst week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson,Arizona.He moved there a few years ago,and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.My earliest memories of my father are of a tall,handsome,successful man devoted to his work and family but uncomfortable with his children.As a child I loved him,as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him.He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A's and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as "successful" as he was.Whenever I went out with him on weekends,I used to struggle to think up things to say,feeling on guard.On the first day of my visit,we went out with one of my father's friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe.We walked along that afternoon,did some shopping,ate at the street table,and laughed over my son's funny facial expressions. Gone was my father's critical（挑剔的）air and strict rules.Who was this person I knew as my father,who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around?What had held him back before?The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years,I never felt closer to him at that moment.After so many years,I'm at last seeing another side of my father.And in so doing,I'm delighted with my new friend.My dad,in his new home in Arizona,is back to me from where he is.【1】Why did the author feel bitter about her father as a young adult?A．He was silent most of the time.B．He was too proud

meC．My childhood D．My earliest memories4.Imagine you got paid to go shopping,and could keep the things you bought with other people's money.Does this sound like a dream?Well,for some,like Amy Knott,from Chicago,this is their job.Amy Knott is a mystery shopper.She is paid to visit a store,eat in a restaurant,go to a bank,stay in a hotel,get her hair cut,fill up her gas tank,or see a movie.She pretends to be an ordinary customer,but afterwards she writes a report about her experience,commenting on things like: How long did you wait in line?Was the flood hot?Did the cashier say "thank you"?Did the restroom have soap and tissue?This gives companies useful information about how they can improve their customer service.So who can become a mystery shopper?You do not need any special qualifications or experience,but you need a good memory,an eye for detail,and good writing skills.When you apply for the job,instead of an interview,you will be asked to write about something like:"What was your best shopping experience?"What is the pay like?For a 15-minute visit to a store,you might get $10 and the cost of what you buy.For a haircut,you might get $35 and the cost of the haircut.Most mystery shoppers do this job in their spare time,like Byron Jenner,who visits a restaurant on his lunch break every day and earns about $500 extra a month.But others, like Amy,make it their full-time career,and earn up to $40,000 a year."I love mystery shopping.I can't believe I actually get paid to have fun,"she says."For example,tonight my husband and I will go out,have a $150 dinner,go to stay at a luxury hotel,and I'll walk away with $300."【1】Amy Knott is paid to go shopping_______ .A．to see whether the cashier says "thanks you"B．to do a research for a company to improve its serviceC．to comment on some thingsD．to see whether the restroom has soap and tissue【2】Which of the following is Not the qualification for a mystery shopper?A．A good memory.B．An eye for detail.C．Good writing skills.D．Passing an interview.【3】How much does Byron Jenner earn as a mystery shopper a year?A．$6,000.B．$40.000.C．$420.D．$30,000.二、信息匹配Scientists often see the first ten years of a child's life as the "window of opportunity,"【1】And studies show that the following activities can benefit their brain greatly.【2】Free playtime has always been an important part of "being a kid",but it is also important to a child's development."Free play" not only helps kids develop different skills,it also helps them develop into happy healthy adults in the future.Read with kids.Reading has long been known to improve children's intelligence.【3】For parents who don't have much time, just surrounding your kids with books goes a long way too.Put kids to bed early.【4】Preschool children should get at least eleven hours of sleep and kids up to age 12 should try to get at least ten hours of sleep.Learn a second language.Early studies in this field have shown that bilingual（双语的）kids can perform better under pressure.Young children can learn new languages with nearly perfect fluency（流利）and pronunciation.Praise good effort not intelligence.Your kids may be smart but you should mainly praise the effort they put into tasks.Kids,who are praised on intelligence,often feel it is a fixed quality,and mistakes or failures badly hurt their self-confidence.Kids who are praised on effort

Here is some advice I want to give you.To keep fit, it is necessary for you to have a healthy diet. You’d better have different foods, especially fruits and vegetables, and drink milk as often as possible. It’s not a good idea to take weight-loss pills for a slim and attractive figure. It is not worth it. Having enough sleep together with regular exercise such as walking and riding is also beneficial to your health. Besides, you should take an active part in school sports. In my opinion, it is not a good habit to spend too much time reading, watching TV or chatting on-line. Always be active and keep optimistic and don’t be discouraged (disappointed/frustrated/upset) whenever you meet with trouble.Yours,Li Hua。

The ticket is $10.00. But on Tuesdays you’ll get in free.★The Sears Tower is the world’s third ta llest building. By going to the 103rd floor, you can get a great view of the whole city! All for only $8.50.Free show★There are free concerts in Grant Park in summer. They are held from Wednesday to Saturday at 7:00 pm.★Attend the taping of a TV show for free. The Oprah Winfrey Show and the Jenny Jones Show both offer tourists free tickets.

However, you can get a room in the dormitoryat Roosevelt University for $215 for a whole week! But you have to stay for 30 days to get this great rate(价格).1. This passage tells us _________.A. Chicago is a big and beautiful cityB. where we can see fine photos and paintingsC. how to make a cheap trip in ChicagoD. there are many free concerts in Chicago2. It will cost you ________ if you visit the Art Institute instead of the Sears Tower on Sundays.A. moreB. lessC. a littleD. nothing3. You may go to _________ if you like to get a great view of the whole city.A. the Art InstituteB. the Sears TowerC. Roosevelt UniversityD. Grant Park4.

The Sears Tower is the world’s third tallest building.D. You can get tickets to the Oprah Winfrey Show as soon as you arrive.BSome people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know?Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks (平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be in every home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbook, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.1．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. TV programs are a chief provider of knowledge.B. cinemas are the best choice in getting information.C. reading is a cheap way of learning and having fun.D. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself.2．What does the sentences “Television has not killed reading, however ” underlined in the second paragraph suggest?A. People only need reading, though.B. Reading is still necessary today.C. Reading is more fun than television.D. Watching television doesn’t help reading.3．What can we learn from the passage?CZach drove over to Mary’s place. She would be his wife soon. She was in China, visiting her parents. Her son Bradley hadn’t gone with her. Bradley was a junior in high school. He neither liked nor disliked Zach, even though he had known Zach for three years. Zach was still trying to get along well with Bradley.When Zach arrived, he asked if Bradley wanted to drive his car. Bradley had a driver’s license. Bradley said all right. Zach told him not to drive fast, but that he could drive anywhere he wanted. Bradley got on the road. Zach gave Bradley a few driving tips: Don’t drive next to big trucks, because you never know when they might crush(碾压) you. Don’t drive behind trucks filled with things, because you never know when something in the truck will fly out and hit your car.On their way back, Zach suggested that they stop at the golf course. He wanted to show Bradley how to play golf. Bradle y wasn’t interested. He preferred his video games. But Bradley soon discovered that golf was fun! He hit a lot of balls. Zach told him that he was doing well. The next day Bradley, for the first time ever, called Zach. He had a few blisters(水疱) on his hands. Zach said that usually happened. Then Bradley asked if Zach would come next Saturday so they could take a drive and hit golf balls again. Zach said, of course, and felt happy.1. The best title(题目) for the text might be “________”.A. You are not my dad, but I begin to love you!B. I begin to love you, my son!C. You can do better, boy!D. Do you love me, dad?2. Zach let Bradley drive his car because ________.A. he wanted to teach Bradley how to driveB. he wanted to take Bradley to the golf courseC. he wanted to go to see MaryD. he wanted to get on well with Bradley3. At first, Bradley liked ________ better than golf.A. drivingB. video gamesC. his lessonsD. a driver’s license4. The next day, Bradley telephoned mainly to ________.A. ask Zach to teach him to driveB. ask Zach to see his mother MaryC. show Zach his friendlinessD. invite Zach to the golf courseDSocieties all over the world name places in similar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Frequently it happens that a place has two names: One is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits died hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countries —in both the West and the East.Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases. If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus —obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel.Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interestin g example, “Base Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay（马来语）. Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their sh apes. There is “Circular Road” for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Crescent”. This road is called a crescent（月牙）because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.1．What does the underlined phrase “die hard” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Change suddenly.B. Change significantly.C. Disappear mysteriously.D. Disappear very slowly.2．Which of the following places is named after a person?A. Raffles Place.B. Selector Airbase.C. Piccadilly Circus.D. Paya Lebar Crescent.3．What can be inferred from the passage?A. Some place names in Singapore are the same as in Britain.B. Some places in Singapore are named for military purposes.C. The way Singaporeans name their places is unique.D. Young Singaporeans have forgotten the pioneers.四、阅读填空What is a dream?For centuries, people have wondered about the strange places that they seem to visit in their sleep. 1 However, they have been valued as necessary to a person's health and happiness.Historically people thought dreams contained messages from God. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams scientifically believing that they tell about a person's character. 2 He believed that dreams allow a person to express fantasies or fears, which would be socially unacceptable in real life.The second theory to become popular was Carl Jung's compensation theory. Jung, a former student of Freud, said that the purpose of a dream is not to hide something, but rather to communicate it to the dreamer. 3 Thus, people who think too highly of themselves may dream about falling; those who think too little of themselves dream of being heroes.Using more recent research, William Domhoff from the University of California found that dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop in humans. , 4 Until they reach age five, they can not express very well what their dreams are about. Once people become adults, there is little or no change in their dreams. The dreams of men and women differ. For instance, The characters that appear in the dreams of men are often other men, and often involve physical aggression.The meaning of dreams continues to be difficult to understand. 5 If you dream that a loved one is going to die, do not panic. The dream may have meaning, but it does not mean that your loved one is going to die.A．Dreams make up for what is lacking in waking life.B．However, people should not take their dreams as reality.C．They have been considered as meaningless nighttime journeys.D．It gives scientists chances to better understand human mind.E．Children do not dream as much as adults.F．They think their mind is trying to tell them something.G．First, there was Sigm und Freud’s theory.五、书面表达参考答案三、阅读理解A1-4 CABDB1-3 DCBC1-4 ADBCD1-3 DAA四、阅读填空1-5 CGAEB五、书面表达。
