Surfing the Internet for information gives people a widely inaccurate view of their own intelligence and could lead to over-confidence when making decisions, experts warn.Experiments found that people who had searched on the Internet believed they were far more knowledgeable about a subject than those who had learned by normal routes, such as reading a book. “The Internet is such a powerful environment, where you can enter any question, and you can easily get the world’s knowledge at your fingertips.” said Mattew Fisher, a psychology professor at Yale University. “Bu t it becomes easier to confuse your own knowledge with this source. When people are truly on their own, they would easily get more wrong answers.”More than 1,000 students took part in a range of experiments aimed at studying the psychological impact of searching on the Internet. In one test, the Internet group were given a website link which gave the answer to the question “how does a zip work” while a control group were given a print-out of the same information. When the two groups were tested later on an unrelated question --- “why are cloudy nights warmer?” the group who had searched online believed they were more knowledgeable even though they were not allowed to look up the correct answer.“We also believe that the wrong sense of personal knowledge als o could be perilous in some areas when people make decisions; in case where decisions have great influence such as important business trade, it may cause millions of losses and even closedown of a company.” Mr. Fisher added.The Internet is a big benefit i n many ways, but there may be some disadvantages that aren’t immediately obvious and this may be one of them. “Right personal knowledge is difficult to achieve, and the Internet may be making that task even harder.”4. According to Matthew Fisher, ________.A. people should keep away from the InternetB. the Internet should concentrate on expert knowledgeC. the Internet has more benefits than disadvantagesD. people shouldn’t rely too much on the Internet5. Researchers did the experiment through the way of ______.A. discussionB. assumptionC. observationD. comparison6. The underlined word “perilous” most probably means _______.A. ridiculousB. dangerousC. beneficialD. normal7. What is the main idea of the passage?A. People widely use the Internet.B. The Internet has many advantages.C. The Internet makes people over-confident.D. More experiments have been done on the Internet.CDriving on up to Yosemite with my family was exciting but nerve-racking(神经紧张的). I had never been to such an amazing national park before, yet I wasn’t the most athletic person so I knew that I couldn’t stick through all the hiking up and down. It actually ended up being a fun and adventurous experience.The ride there was definitely long but worth it. As I woke up from my nap, I saw the beautiful scenery of the all mountains and beautiful streams. The trails were made nicely for visitor. The waterfalls were breathtaking. Climbing up rocks was one of my favorite parts. Even though I fell a couple of times, I still had a lot of fun. The fact that my family and I spent so much time together all trying to find out which route to take and what views to watch really brought us closer together.The great thin g about nature is that, it’s just you, the views, and the people around you. There’s nothing there to bother you and it’s the best way to relax and enjoy yourself. Yosemite has 5 of the world’s highest waterfalls, and about 300 lakes. The structure of each mountain is incredible; it’s formed in ways that almost take your breath away. Some of them are of a deep dark color with waterfalls forming; some are formed with spots of green peeking(窥探) out. It’s definitely something you wouldn’t want to miss.Yosemite isn’t the only great National Park but based on my experience I highly recommend going out and enjoying nature with family and friends. It’s a great time to bond, laugh, and take in what Mother Nature offers.8. The author writes the first paragraph mainly to_________.A. introduce the topic of this passageB. offer an example to usC. tell us his future plan for hikingD. describe a national park9. While climbing up rocks, the author was______________.A. nerve-rackingB. injuredC. worriedD. pleased10. According to the passage, Yosemite_________.A. is crowded with visitors every dayB. is the only great National ParkC. is worth travelling toD. is nothing but a common destination11. The author suggests us___________.A. keeping a good bond with other peopleB. going out to enjoy the beauty of natureC. trying to protect the environmentD. visiting Yosemite now and thenDSuppose you have three things: a piece of wood, a nail and a hammer. Pretend the wood is a person, and the nail is a mean rumor(语言) about that person. If you hammer the nail in, you'reobviously hurting him or her. If you then pull out the nail, there's still a hole in the wood, and the damage has been done.There are many reasons why that nail of a rumor can be so harmful. Rumors are, quite simply, a form of bullying(欺侮). When a person or a group makes up a rumor about someone or decides to spread gossip, it's usually to hurt someone, break up a friendship, or make someone less popular. It's the same thing as teasing, only it's done behind someone's back instead of to his or her face.When you spread a rumor about someone, you're sending a signal that the person is outside the group, and somehow less worthy of friendship than others. You're making fun of that person or pointing out negative things about him or her. This can let others think that it's OK to make the person feel bad, and make him or her an outsider.We need to be able to trust our friends, but gossip and rumors can break this trust. If you tell a personal secret to a friend, and he turns around and tells it to someone else, you might feel like you will get burned if you ever get close to him again.Letting a rumor influence your behavior is like letting someone else make a big decision for you. Let's say you hear that a teacher plans to call a Snowy Day tomorrow because a blizzard(暴风雪)is coming. Expecting a day off, you don't do your homework as usual. The next morning, the blizzard turns out to be nothing more than a drizzle(毛毛雨), and school isn't off after all. You get zeroes on your work.12. If a rumor is spread about someone, others may .A. keep away from him or herB. point out his or her advantagesC. not feel he or she is an outsiderD. be hurt if getting close to him or her again13. To tell the rumor and the teasing apart, you depend on .A. whether it is painful or notB. whether it is done behind someoneC. whether it is a kind of bullyingD. whether it is spread fast14. From the last paragraph, we can infer that .A. it is hard to keep rumors a secretB. rumors can destroy your interest in learningC. rumors can control your whole lifeD. believing rumors can lead to bad choices15. The purpose of this passage is to .A. advise on how to deal with rumorsB. teach us how to judge a rumorC. explain why rumors hurtD. find out why rumors spread fast第二节(共5小题;每小题 2 分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men.In a survey done by insurer MetLife, 51% of women said they drive more safely. The evidence is on their side: Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving. “Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding(手法的) drivers, which leads to fewer accidents,” the report says. However, not all male drivers share the same opinion. Of the men surveyed by MetLife, 39% claimed male drivers were safer. The findings did back them up on one point: automotive knowledge. The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control, which helps prevent rollover accidents.Auto safety unavoidably matters to money. Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men. A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states. Among individual states, women get the greatest advantage in Wyoming(where they pay 20% less), South Dakota and Washington, D.C., where their insurance costs are 16% lower.“More than 11,9000 male drivers died in U.S. traffic accident in 2009, compared with just under 4,900 women drivers,” according to the study. “Based on miles traveled, men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled, vs. 1.7 deaths for women.”24.According to the study, male drivers __________.A.are less aggressive while drivingB.are more skilled at auto knowledgeC.are more likely to stick to driving lawsD.are less familiar with safety equipment25.Insurance companies focus on female driver clients(客户) probably because they __________.A.cause more accidents on the road but ask for littleB.cause little damage and pay more money to the insurance companiesC.are more careful drivers and cause less damageD.make up the most part of the insurance clients26.We can infer from the passage that __________.A.men are 3.1 times more likely to get tickets than womenB.all women in the USA pay the same for their auto insuranceC.more female drivers die every year than male driversD.women are generally safer drivers than the opposite sex27.The writer mainly develops paragraphs by __________.A.giving examples B.making comparisonsC.drawing a conclusion D.presenting an argumentModern day robots may not be as entertaining as R2D2 or the robot from Lost in Space, but robots are very important to space exploration and are being used in a variety of different ways for several important reasons.Robots make great explorers on planets, moons, and other landing areas. Aside from the earth, just about every surface in the solar system is unsafe for humans to explore. The air on most other planets is insufficient fortunate for humans to explore. The air on most other planets is insufficient for humans to breathe, making it necessary to wear a space suit and oxygen equipment. The temperatures on these surfaces are much too hot or much too cold for any humans to withstand. Plus there would be complications with radiation, weather, and a lack of gravity. Robots have much less limitation in these areas and can survive much longer under these conditions.Robots are designed for collecting scientific data. Robots are also able to perform many tasks at one time and can process information much quicker and more efficiently. Important scientific projects from detecting minerals, analyzing ground samples, to finding water are all performed much quicker and accurately by robots.The use of robots has made the cost of space exploration much less expensive than it would cost for humans to do the work. In order to successfully send humans into space we would need to build a vehicle that can not only carry humans, but also enough | food and water to keep them alive for the duration of the trip. Moreover, robots have no problems working for hours on end. Robots never complain, they don’t require food or water, and they never need a bathroom break.Over the past 30 years or so there have been many different types of robots used successfully in the exploration of space. Perhaps the most famous and successful robots are Spirit and Opportunity who have both been exploring the surface of Mars. They have both been very successful with experiments on soil and rocks and have even found evidence of water in Mars’ history.28.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.The Development of Robots B.The Discovery of Space ExplorationC.No Robots, No Space Exploration D.Robots Are Used in Space Exploration29.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A.The use of robots in space exploration costs more than the use of humans.B.It is dangerous for. humans to explore other surfaces in the solar system except the earth.C.Both Spirit and Opportunity have found the evidence of water on Mars.D.Many different types of robots have explored the space successfully.30.The underlined word “withstand” in paragraph 2 most probably means “______”A.remain B.bearC.defeat D.develop31.What is the writer’s attitude in this passage?A.Negative. B.Persuasive.C.Subjective. D.Objective.How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments -mostly for entertainment purposes - is fair and respectful? Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats.Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes. Zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species, but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range.The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs. The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats, Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.32.How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos?A.Dangerous. B.Unhappy.C.Natural. D.Easy.33.In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.A.remain in cages B.behave strangelyC.attack other animals D.enjoy moving around34.What does the author try to argue in the passage?A.Zoos are not worth the public support.B.Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.C.Zoos should treat animals as human beings.D.Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.35.The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.A.pointing out the faults in what zoos doB.using evidence he has collected at zoosC.questioning the way animals are protectedD.discussing the advantages of natural habitatsLast week the British university system offered a record number of places. That sounds like good news—but do we really need more people to go to university? For that matter, does the world need more universities?The answer feels like it should be yes.Education is good, is it not? But everything has a cost.Education takes time. We could insist that everyone study full-time until the age of 45 but that would surely be too much. And perhaps half the population studying until they’re 21 is also too much. As for universities, they consume financial and intellectual resources—perhaps those resources might be better spent elsewhere.My own personal opinion is strongly in favor both of going to university, and of simply having universities around.The main skill I learnt at university was to write about economics, and I use that skill every day of my professional life, even an abstract education seems practical to me. And I now live in Oxford, one of the world’s most celebrated (著名的) university cities. Oxford’s experience certainly suggests that universities have much to offer.The city’s architecture and green spaces have been shaped—greatly for the better, on balance —by the 900-year-old institution at its heart. The beauty attracts tourists and locals too.But these are samples of one. Many people do not find themselves using the skills and knowledge they accumulated at university. And Oxford’s dreaming spires (尖顶) aren’t terribly representative of global universities as a whole.36.Which of the following is the most proper title?A.Does the world need more universities?B.Is education really necessary?C.Is British university system the best?D.Do you prefer universities abroad?37.Which of the following about the writer is TRUE?A.He is an economist now.B.He likes Oxford’s architecture and green spaces most.C.The skill he learnt at university is practical in his career.D.He holds the view that going to univeristy is a waste of resources.38.The writer develops the passage by ______.A.comparing his experience with others’B.persuading us with his own experience and opinionC.describing and sharing his own university experienceD.informing us of the advantages of universities39.What’s the meaning of the word “consume” in Paragraph 4?A.use B.provideC.delight D.raise40.In the following part, the writer is likely to ______.A.list more supporting details about his opinionB.show more disadvantages about going to universitiesC.present some opposite opinions about universitiesD.draw a conclusion about the topic三、七选五How to Love Your ParentsEven if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life.You love them for the fact that they created you, raised you, and are in part, a source of who you are.41.Tell them you love them every morning.A gentle "good morning" and "I love you" will warm a coldest heart. Remember that they brought you into this world. Without your parents, we might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world.Respect them more and cherish these moments.You can use these moments to learn from them, preparing yourself for when you're off on your own.It's OK to get angry but angry actions don't help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, write down your feelings, or talk to a friend. 42.Obey their requests.It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them.It may seem like you are going through hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean.However, you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold, raining, snowing, or too hot.Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes.43. Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents?Keep company with them.Do things with your parents like watching TV, or go somewhere with them.44. Listen to their old stories and learn from them. You will find they are your teachers in this way or another.Some people simply may not be able to love their parents.45. Seek help if you are being abused(虐待)in any way. Parents do not have a right to harm you.A. Parents will in turn express their love to you.B. Forgiveness is the key.C. Here are some ways to love your parents.D. There can be realistic reasons for this, family violence for example.E. Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can.F. After this, share your feelings with your parents.G. Please remember parents are as important as friends.四、完形填空Last fall I hung outside my window a bird feeder(喂鸟的食槽).Knowing __46____about wild birds,I _47___that___48____ I hung this bird feeder outside,numbers of beautiful birds would be swooping(飞扑)to my new addition.

第一节(每小题 2 分,满分 30 分)AWelcome to one of the largest collections of footwear(鞋类)in the world that will make you green with envy. Here at the Footwear Museum you can see exhibits (展品)from all over the world. You can find out about shoes worn by everyone from the Ancient Egyptians to pop stars.Room 1The celebrity(名人)footwear section is probably the most popular in the entire museum. Started in the 1950s there is a wide variety of shoes and boots belonging to everyone from queens and presidents to pop stars and actors! Most visitors find the celebrities’ choice of footwear extremely interesting.Room 2Most of our visitors are amazed —and shocked— by the collection of “special purpose” shoes on exhibition here at the Museum of Footwear. For example, there are Chinese shoes made of silk, that were worn by women to tie their feet firmly to prevent them from growing too much!Room 3As well as shoes and boots the museum also exhibits shoe-shaped objects. The variety is unbelievable. For example, there is a metal lamp that resembles a pair of shoes, and Greek wine bottles that like legs!The footwear LibraryPeople come from all over the world to study in our excellent footwear library. Designers and researchers come here to look up information on anything and everything related to the subject of footwear.1.Where would you find a famous singer’s shoes?A. Room 1B. Room 2C. Room 3D. The footwear Library2. All exhibits in each room ________________ .A. share the same themeB. have the same shapeC. are made of the same materialD. belong to the same social class3. The purpose of the text is to get more people to __________________.A. do research B .design shoesC. visit the museumD. follow celebritiesBThe clearing of my parents' home has made me think about the importance, even centrality of books to the house's life and soul. The house, and our lives in it, would not have been the same without books. The force of the statement comes home to me as I see what happens when shelves arc emptied. The rooms suddenly look uncomfortably bare.I always rather took it for granted that books furnished a room. The only rooms in our house without books were the dining-room and the bathrooms. Otherwise there were books everywhere: in all the bedrooms, in the drawing-room and in the piano room which became my parents' comfortable winter study.I couldn't help feeling that books were rather like people: some more formal and boring, others more entertaining; some simply for show, others with unpromising outsides but rich interiors. They had more, in fact, than furnish a room, and they were companions who will offer insights, good advice.Now the books are being contributed (not all, to be sure, but very many), andI fear for their future, almost as if they were refugees(难民). “Habent sua fata libelli”, goes as the old Latin saying, originally written by Retentions; it meant that the fate and future of books were determined by the capability of the reader. But the meaning of the phrase has been misunderstood by time and is now associated with the physical fate of particular books, how they have passed from owner to owner. This is how Walter Benjamin read the saying when he wrote his essay “Unpacking My Library”, which analyses the extraordinarily close relationship between a collector and his or her books.As I deal with the books –many are going to charity (慈善) shops and I hope they will find good homes–I can’t help wondering if my generation is the last that will oversee such a process. Books are disappearing, as more and more are bought in electronic form and exist only as bytes of information on E–books or other devices. Does this matter? Could books become more spiritual, as they lose their physicality?4. When clearing the room, the author__________.A .realized the influence of books on his past lifeB .thought of the statement his parents once madeC. felt upset to leave his parents' books behindD. found some empty shelves left by his parents5. The underlined word “interiors”in Paragraph 3 refers to ___________.A. pagesB. notesC. coversD. contents6. According to Walter Benjamin, ___________ .A. it's important to pass books from owner to ownerB. the meaning of books is misunderstood by timeC. the future of books depends on readers' capabilityD. the fate of books is related to their collectors7. From the passage we know that _____________.A. the author is attached to physical form of booksB. the author's books are bound to find good homesC. e-books have taken the place of traditional onesD. the author's parents used every room of theirs as a studyCThe Lifecycle of a T-shirtWe all probably have a lot of T-shirts, but do you ever stop and think about the influence of a T-shirt on the planet? You’d probably be surprised to learn what's involved in the lifecycle of just one T-shirt.There are 5 major stages: material, production, shipping, use and disposal The material stage involves farming, irrigating, fertilizing, harvesting and ginning(轧花). While cotton is a natural fiber (纤维)and not as harmful to the environment as manmade fibers, it still takes a toll in the material and production stages. Commercial cotton farming uses a large amount of water, and the use of pesticides (杀虫剂)is widespread across the globe, especially in cotton farming. Studies have shown that farmers spend around $4.1 billion on pesticides annually, of which 25% was spent on cotton crops in the US.Once the cotton is grown and harvested, so begins the production stage: spinning, knitting(编织), bleaching, dyeing, cutting, sewing, etc.——these processes also use a great deal of water and energy. Commercial dyes and bleaches are harmful pollutants and can eventually pollute groundwater.After the T-shirt is produced, it enters the transportation stage. This often involves overseas shipping. Take a look in your closet. Chances are that most of your cotton garments (衣服)are made in China or India. Garments can be shipped via plane, ship or truck…,all of which spill COinto the atmosphere. Calculations2emissions from light trucks alone amount to 1.15 pounds per mile. show that CO2Once the T-shirt reaches the retail market, it is purchased. This stage mayseem like the least environmentally damaging part. But consider the number of times you’ve washed and dried your favorite T-shirt. Washing machines are certainly becoming more efficient. However, the average American household does 400 loads of laundry per year, using about 40 gallons of water per load. Such excessive water use is combined with the large amount of energy used by dryers.The final stage of life is disposal. This releases harmful emissions, or involves a landfill where cotton takes years to break down. Current US records show that an estimated 15% of clothes and shoes are recycled, which means that consumers send a shocking 85% of these materials to landfills.We all need new clothes every once in a while, but let’s all try to keep in mind what goes into the production of clothing... It has a real impact on the planet.There are a lot of things you can do to help reduce your impact. Reuse and recycle clothes. If they’re too worn out to wear, cut them up and use them as cleaning rags. Donate them to charity or another organization that recycles textiles. When possible, make an effort to buy organic cotton. Turn down the thermostat(恒温器) on your washer, and line dry your clothes when the weather will allow it.8. The underlined phrase “takes a toll” probably means “”A. wastes waterB. takes a lot of timeC. uses energyD. has a bad effect9. We can learn from the passage that in the US, .A. pesticides in cotton farming cost over 4 billion dollars every yearB. C0emissions of land transport amount to 1.15 pounds per mile2C. about 15% of the clothes and shoes are made of materials that are recycledD. about 16, 000 gallons of water is used annually by an average family on laundry10. What can be inferred from this passage?A. The production process may affect water safety.B .The clothing cost is relatively low in China and India.C. Cotton clothes are buried because they are hard to break down.D. The use stage is the least environmentally harmful of the five stages.11. What is the purpose of this article?A. To encourage people to donate clothes to charity.B. To promote eco-friendly actions related to clothes.C. To persuade people to purchase more organic cotton.D. To introduce the five stages in the lifecycle of clothing.DEudaimonia is an Ancient Greek word, particularly stressed by the philosophers Plato and Aristotle, which deserves far more attention than it has because it corrects the shortfalls (缺失)in one of the most central, but troubling words in our modem language: happiness.When we nowadays try to clearly express the purpose of our lives,it is the word “happiness” that we commonly turn to. We tell ourselves and others that the most important principle for our jobs, our relationships and the conduct of our day-to-day lives is the pursuit of happiness. It sounds like an innocent enough idea, but too much reliance on the term means that we frequently unfairly tend to quit or, at least, heavily question a great many challenging but worthwhile situations. The Ancient Greeks did not believe that the purpose of life was to be happy; they proposed that it was to achieve Eudaimonia, a word which has been best translated as “fulfilment”.What distinguishes happiness from fulfilment is pain. It is very possible to be fulfilled and—at the same time—under pressure, suffering physically or mentally, overburdened and, quite frequently, in an irritable (易怒的)mood. This is a slight psychological difference that is hard for the word “happiness” to capture, for it’s tricky to speak of being happy yet unhappy, or happy yet suffering.However, such a combination is readily accommodated within the respected and noble-sounding idea of Eudaimonia.The word encourages us to trust that many of life’s most worthwhile projects will sometimes be in conflict with contentment, and yet will be worth pursuing. Properly exploring our professional talents, managing a household, keeping a relationship going, creating a new business venture or engaging in politics... none of these goals are likely to leave us cheerful and grinning on a daily basis. They will, in fact, involve us in all manner of challenges that will deeply exhaust and weaken us, provoke (激怒)and wound us. And yet we will perhaps, at the end of our lives, still feel that the tasks were worth undertaking. Through them, we’ll have achieved something deeper and more interesting than happiness.With the word Eudaimonia in mind, we can stop imagining that we are aiming for a pain-freeexistence—and then blaming ourselves unfairly for being in a bad mood. We’ll know that we are trying to do something far more important than smile all the time: we're striving to do justice to our full human potential.12. What do we know about “Eudaimonia” from the passage?A. It was first created by two Greek philosophers.B . It has received a lot of attention from the public.C. It still has some shortfalls that need to be corrected.D. It was regarded as the purpose of life in ancient Greece.13. According to Paragraph 3, happiness .A. is the opposite of fulfillmentB. is free from physical or mental painC. stresses the psychological differenceD. serves as a respected and noble life goal14. We can learn from the passage that .A. aiming for happiness may lead to wrong self-blamingB. goals that wound and weaken us result in happinessC. challenges leading to contentment are worth undertakingD. feeling fulfilled means we should avoid tough situations15. The passage encourages the readers to .A. find fulfillment with all effortsB. seek for a pain-free existenceC. keep optimistic whatever happensD. balance happiness and suffering第二节(共5小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

句意:---那个旧工厂就是你经常提到的吗?---对,就是我工作多年的那个旧工厂。
第一句的主语为that old factory,is是系动词,______ you often refer to为表语从句,表语从句中的refer to后面缺少宾语,名词从句中缺少宾语一般用what,故第一个空填what。
第二句the one(=the factory)是先行词,在后面的定语从句中作地点状语,把先行词放入句中为I worked in the factory for years,要用where,所以选C。
2.He has lots of friends, only a few of ____ invited to his wedding.A. whomB. themC. whichD. who【答案】B【解析】试题分析:考查定语从句。
本题定语从句的先行词是a lot of friends,在后面的定语从句中whom指代先行词作为介词of的宾语。
Them不能引导定语从句,which所指代的先行词常常是事物,不能是人;who在句中通常作为主语,不做宾语。
故A正确。

I took an airplane for the first time in my life. 我有生以来第一次搭飞机。
3、以下句子反映出两个词组的差别,两句话的意思相同。

They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking. They try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six stages in analyzing a problem.First the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicy cle is broken, and he cannot read it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must find the reason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, the brakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specific.Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop. He can look at his gears carefully.After studying the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be: put oil on the gear wheels; buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones; tighten or loosen the gear wheels.Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final idea comes very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum between the gear wheels. He immediately realizes the solution to his problem : he must clean the gear wheels.Finally the solution is tested. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly. In short, he has solved the problem.6.What is the best title for this passage?A.Six Stages for Repairing Sam’s Bicycle.B.Possible Ways to Problem-solving.C.Necessities of Problem Analysis. D.Suggestions for Analyzing a Problem. 7.In analyzing a problem we should do all the following except .A.recognize and define the problem B.look for information to make the problem clearerC.have suggestions for a possible solution D.find a solution by trial or mistake8.By referring to Sam’s broken bicycle, the author intends to .A.illustrate the ways to repair his bicycle B.discuss the problems of his bicycleC.tell us how to solve a problem D.show us how to analyse a problem 9.Which of the following is NOT true?A.People do not analyze the problem they meet.B.People often accept the opinions or ideas of other people.C.People may learn from their past experience.D.People can not solve some problems they meet.10.As used in the last sentence, the phrase “in short” means .A.in the long run B.in detail C.in a word D.in the endC.Years ago, when I started looking for my first job, wise advisers urged, "Barbara, be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience."How right they were. Enthusiastic people can turn a boring drive into an adventure, extra work into opportunity and strangers into friends.''Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm, wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang in there when the going gets tough. It is the inner voice that whispers, I can do it! " when others shout, "No, you can't."It took years and years for the early work of Barbara McClintock, a geneticist(遗传学家)who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine, to be generally accepted.Yet she didn't let up on her experiments. Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.Author and poet Samuel Ullman once wrote, "Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul".Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or title or power. If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can treat it as a part-time interest, like the head of state who paints, the nun(修女) who runs marathons, the official who handcrafts(手工制做)furniture.We can't afford to waste tears on "might- have-beens". We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after ''what-can-be".We need to live each moment wholeheartedly, with all our senses — finding pleasure in the fragrance of a back-yard garden, the crayoned (蜡笔的)picture of a six-year-old, the enchanting beauty of a rainbow. It is such enthusiastic love of life that puts a sparkle in our eyes, a lilt in our steps and smooths the wrinkles from our souls.11.What can be the best title of this passage?A.Find pleasure in what you are doing B.Wake up your life C.To give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul D.No pains, no gains 12.What conclusion does the writer draw through the experience of finding a job?A.Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.B.Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.C.We can't afford to waste tears on "might- have-beens.D.Enthusiastic people can turn a boring drive into an adventure, extra work into opportunity and strangers into friends.13.Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage?A.No one can achieve great success without enthusiasm.B.Enthusiasm will take a person further than any amount of his experience.C.We should make great effort to do the thing that can be done instead of regretting for the past.D.Barbara McClintock was generally accepted many years before she won the Nobel Prize 14.Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase let up ?A.continue B.make less effort C.make great effort D.stop 15.We can learn from the last paragraph that it is that makes our life meaningful.A.love of gardening B.love of drawing pictures with the crayon of a six-year-old childC.love of life D.love of beautiful rainbowD.In every British town, large and small, you will find shops that sell second-hand goods. Sometimes such shops deal mostly in furniture, sometimes in books, sometimes in ornaments(装饰)and household goods, sometimes even in clothes.The furniture may often be “antique”, and it may well have changed hands many times. Itmay also be very valuable, although the most valuable piece will usually go to the London salerooms, where one piece might well be sold for hundreds of thousands of pounds. As you look around these shops and see the polished wood of chests and tables, you cannot help thinking of those long-dead hands which polished that wood, of those now-closed eyes which once looked at these pieces with love.The books, too, may be antique and very precious; some may be rare first printings. Often when someone dies or has to move house, his books may all be sold, so that sometimes you may find whole libraries in one shop. One the border between England and Wales, there is a town which has become a huge bookshop as well. Even the cinema and castle have been taken over, and now books have repla ced sheep as the town’ s main trade.There are also much more humble shops, sometimes simply called “junk shops”, where you can buy small household pieces very cheaply. Sometimes the profits(利润)from these shops go to charity(慈善事业). Even these pieces, though, can make you feel sad; you think of those people who once treasured them, but who have moved on to another country or to death.Although the British do not worship(崇拜)their ancestors, they do treasure the past and the things of the past. This is true of houses as well. These days no one knocks them down; they are rebuilt until they are often better than new. In Britain, people do not buy something just because it is new. Old things are treasured for their proven worth; new things have to prove themselves before they are accepted.16.Books found in second-hand book shops may .A.be copies of the earliest printings B.be on sale for the first timeC.never be worth very much D.never be rare17.What is the small town on the border between England and Wales famous for?A.Its sheep.

It concluded that these babies had a high heart rate when shown unfamiliar people or different toys.Although shyness is not new, it has only recently become of interest to researchers. The first study on the genetic connection was in 1979.According to Warren Jones of the University of Tulsa, social relations these days are more complex. "With less ritual (仪式) and more complex situations," he said, "shyness is a national concern."Not all shy people are anxious and fearful, according to another study. Evidence shows that only half of shy people are tense, worried, and fearful in social situations.Many men use shyness as an excuse for failing in social situations, according to C.R. Snyder of the University of Kansas. "This is not true of females. Perhaps,American men are pressured to be assertive(自信的) and successful. So they would rather say they're shy than admit they're incompetent."Shy people may do very well socially after the first meeting with someone. In fact, shy people tend to be more stable.The psychologists said shyness seems to be cultural. Japan has the highest rating. China and Israel have the lowest rating. The United States rated in the middle.21. The word "trait" in the first paragraph means ______A. wayB. traditionC. characterD. possession22.
