Evidence shows that the joble ss are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever t he unemployment.Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (79)Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they ar e working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and war mth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Word makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his s tudents grow, they are happy beyond words.(80)From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.1.The underlined word “average ” in Paragraph I means __ .

BA.People Should Find a JobB.Working Hard Is Good for HealthC.People Should Make More Friends by WorkD.The Loss of Word Means the Loss of EverythingPassage 2A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture t han is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history cours es concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology. In addition, information a bout thedaily activities of our ancestors can be provided by art. （78） In shor t, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history b ooks.In history books, objective information about the political life of a coun try is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective（主观的）: it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first t ruly “ political ” artist. In his well -known painting The Third of May , 1808, h e criticized the Spanish government for its abuse （滥用） of power over people.In the same way, art can reflect a culture ' s religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that described people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn ' t read, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on church wal ls. By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was （andstill is） its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islami c belief that statues （雕像） are not holy.6.More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than general history because ___. CA.art history shows us nothing but the political valuesB.general history only focuses on politicsC.art history gives us an insight （洞察力） into the essential qualities o f a time and a placeD.general history concerns only religious beliefs, emotions and psycholog y7.Art is subjective in that . AA. a personal and emotional view of history is presented through itB.it only reflects people ' s anger or sadness about social problemsC.it can easily arouse people ' s anger about their governmentD.artists were or are religious, who reflect only the religious aspect of the society8.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? CA.In history books political views of people are entirely presented.B.Francisco Goya expressed his religious belief in his painting The Third of May, 1808C.In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on pala ces or other building.D.For centuries in Europe, painters had only painted on walls of churches or other religious buildings.9 The passage mainly discusses . BA.the development of art historyB.he difference between general history and art historyC.what we can learn from artD.the influence of artists on art history10.It can be concluded from the passage that . CA.Islamic artists only paint images of plants, flowers or objects in thei r paintingsB.it is more difficult to study art history than general historyC. a history teacher must be quite objectiveD.artists painted people or stories from the Bible to hide their politica l beliefsPassage 3Blind people can “ see” things by using other parts of their bodies. Thisfact may help us to understand our feelings about color. If blind people can se nse color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciousl y（无意识地）。

On your way, you may feel coordinated and enjoy your hands-free phone talking while driving. But recent studies suggest that it isn't the dialing or the arm waving that makes driving whiletalking on a cell phone dangerous. It is the yakking itself or more precisely, tile continuous conversation with someone who isn't present- that makes. David Strayer, a Utah psychologist, says "Y our driving performance while talking on a cell phone is weakened at levels comparable to, or worse than, driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08," which is the legal limit in most states of America.Using a driving-training simulator, Strayer and his colleagues compared the attention levels and response time of 110 drivers in various situations. In dense traffic, cell phone users were about 20 percent slower to respond to sudden hazards than other drivers, and they were about twice as likely to drive into the back of a braking car in front of them. "Cell phone drivers are obtaining less than 50 percent of the visual information that non-cell drivers are getting," says Strayer, "Looking and seeing are not one and the same." By contrast, the researchers found that listening to the radio or conversing with passengers is not as hazardous. "When a dangerous situation arises, the driver and passengers put their conversation on pause," Strayer says.Whether talking with a passenger or someone on a cell phone, however, people are less able to recall the details of a conversation carried on while driving. "So it might not be good for your economic health to discuss investment strategies with your agent while either of you is driving." Strayer adds lastly.16. According to the recent studies, which of the following makes driving dangerous?A. A cell phone dialing by the driver.B. The driver's endless arm waving.C. The driver's continuous cell phone talking.D. The absence of another phone speaker.17. Which of the following does Strayer want to stress most?A. The driving performance may be weakened by a cell phone talking.B. The driving performance may be affected by a high blood alcohol level.C. Drivers are not to drive over the cell phone or after drinking.D. A cell phone talking is no less hazardous than alcohol in driving.18. The experiment shows all the following EXCEPT that .A. the cell phone drivers get less than half of the visual informationB. the cell phone drivers are twice as likely to hit the front carsC. the cell phone drivers' response to sudden dangers is slowerD. the 110 drivers were reluctant to take part in the experiments19. Strayer discourages drivers from talking, about business on cell phones while driving because .A. they tend to forget the details of a conversationB. both the driver and his agent happen to be drivingC. it might not be good for the driver's memoryD. the other passengers would overhear the conversation20. It can be inferred that the author's attitude toward cell phone yakking is .A. approvingB. disapprovingC. encouragingD. indifferentPassage TwoIt's no great surprise that Bill Gates has decided to walk away from his day-to-day involvement with Microsoft, and use his full attention to oversee how the Bill Gates Foundation spends its $16 billion on philanthropy, or charity. But Gates is not the first one to follow the path. Ever since the Industrial Revolution, wealthy self-made businessmen and businesswomen .have felt a calling to create a legacy that goes beyond aprofit and loss sheet. The saying "He who dies rich, dies disgraced" runs deeply through the business community.But out of all the great philanthropists, Mr. Gates' career path appears to be closest to the oil millionaire John Rockefeller. Both were self-made men and both became the richest men on the planet. Rockefeller was in his late fifties when he turned his attention full time to philanthropy--creating vast charitable foundations to promote health and education. Now Gates says he will do the same in his early fifties. "With great wealth comes great responsibility," he adds.Like Gates, many philanthropists do not want to pass on too much wealth to their children. They want them to be comfortable, with a nice house and some money in trust for their grandchildren. But they don't want to leave them millions and millions because they know how important it is for them to make their own way. In Britain, for instance, the newspaper rich lists are increasingly dominated by self-made millionaires, rather than inherited wealth. New money is less likely to be tied up in assets, making it ripe for philanthropy.The appearance of the welfare state also had a great impact on attitudes to philanthropy. The state was saying it would take over much of the role of what was once regarded as the responsibility of private philanthropists.21. Bill Gates has done all the following EXCEPT .A. abandoning his career with Microsoft's daily businessB. devoting the rest of his life to philanthropic causesC. leaving his children enough money for a comfortable lifeD. defying John Rockefeller in creating charitable foundations22. The saying "He who dies rich, dies disgraced" properly means that .A. the wealthy people should give away their fortunes after deathB. the wealthy people should feel ashamed for their assetsC. the wealthy people should abandon their careers for charitiesD. it is shameful for the wealthy people to keep their wealth till death23. Gates and Rockefeller are similar in that .A. both of them inherited their wealthB. their career paths are exactly the sameC. both decided to devote to charity in their fiftiesD. both made their fortunes in the same way24. Many wealthy people don't want to leave too much behind mainly because .A. it is not easy for them to make their fortunesB. they want their children to make their own wayC. they just wish their children to have a comfortable lifeD. they hope to gain reputation by donating their wealth25. The chief reason why philanthropy has come into a good stage is that .A. the new money is less likely to be regarded as one's private wealthB. Gates will devote his full attention to philanthropyC. the welfare state would take over all the charity responsibilitiesD. many new millionaires are self-made rather than inheritedPassage ThreeIn 1991, when announced to be HIV positive, "Magic" Johnson became the face of a disease that the public still had a lot to learn about. The basketball star established the Magic Johnson Foundation that yearand took a leading role on the public relations and fund-raising fronts in the fight against HIV and AIDS. Fifteen years later, there is still more work to do."A lot of times, what happens is that the poster's not enough," Johnson says, motioning to his likeness on the blackboard behind him. "So I have to get out and tell them myself, like I’m doing here today." Johnson is now talking to an assembly at Boys and Girls High School in his neighborhood of Brooklyn, N. Y. The crowd is a few hundred students in a mostly black, working-class neighborhood. Thus event is the fourth of a 10-city speaking tour that is organized for minority communities.According to drug maker Abbot, half of the more than one million Americans living with HIV are black. African-American men are being diagnosed with the disease at a rate 10 times as high as that of white men. For women, the situation is even worse. The rate of diagnosis for African-American women is 23 times as high as that for their white counterparts."Right now, we don't have a solution on how to combat it, so we're trying to do some different things than what has happened before," Johnson says.Getting the word out is what draws Johnson to black neighborhood high schools such as this one, and the message he brings with him is a practical one. "The safest sex is no sex," he says. "But, in reality, we know only a certain number of people are going to hear that. Then I hit them with ' Hey. if you're going to do it, you've got to protect yourself and your partner. '"Hopefully, by talking realistically instead of avoiding the issues, Johnson can help make the next generation of African-Americans less likely to have HIV and AIDS. "Just try to be real with them," he says. "They appreciate that."26. The phrase "disease that the public still had a lot to learn about" here means a disease that .A. was already well-known thenB. was too complicated for peopleC. was still too new to be understoodD. killed too many victims then27. According to the passage, the group with the highest AIDS rate is .A. the white AmericansB. African-American menC. the American womenD. the black American women28. The speaker is named "Magic" Johnson because .A. he was once a famous basketball coachB. he was a happy survivor of the unhappy diseaseC. he was given chance to talk of his own experienceD. he was a very practical and realistic person in life29. The word "combat" (Paragraph 4) is closest in meaning to .A. come backB. combineC. fight againstD. avoid30. What is the purpose of Johnson's speech tour?A. To take himself as an example in fighting the disease.B. To raise the awareness of young Americans against the disease.C. To provide a better cure for the black American HIV sufferers.D. To try some new medical solutions on the HIV and AIDS sufferers.Passage FourOnce upon a time all you needed for a camping trip was a sleeping bag, a compass and some common sense. Now, according to my local sporting goods retailer, a lot more should be added. However, outdoor travel has become such a trend that urban people find themselves with some upscale retailers to address theirevery desire."Eco" and "adventure" are the latest fashionable words in destination travel; those in the industry know they can make serious cash off all the consumers. These are consumers who get outdoors not for nature's sake, but to work out simply for a splendid cocktail party.As a result of high-end demand, the great outdoors is becoming less affordable and accessible for ordinary people. Our national parks used to be vast acres of wilderness where people could go and enjoy nature, for free. But over the past 100 years, the government has been slowly selling or leasing off public lands for profit, and our current president is continuing the trend. Large ski resorts have swallowed up plenty of wilderness and small towns in the West by attracting more high-end businesses. Nature is now a commodity that can be repackaged and sold to the wealthy developers. As for the small amount of public land left, well, try to remember the last time you camped at a state park for free.The Joneses and everyone trying to keep up with them want a piece of the outdoors, but only with creature comforts included. The rest of us are being slowly priced out of nature. Pretty soon my tent and sleeping pack will be out of date; since camping will mean a luxury yurt with skylights for star-gazing. If this is what signifies experiencing nature in the new millennium, then Thoreau must be rolling in his grave.31. According to the author, outdoor travel has now become .A. less needed for the urban residentsB. an uncontrolled trend for city dwellersC. an ever more attractive interest for urban peopleD. so economical that most urban people can afford it32. The phrase "make serious cash off all the consumers" (Paragraph 2) means “”.A. make consumers deposit all their money into bankB. cause the consumers to use up all their moneyC. make all the consumers cash their money in the bankD. make a careful plan to attract as many consumers as possible33. Paragraph 2 is written to .A. introduce the nature's change of the outdoor travel todayB. criticize the outdoor campers for their waste of moneyD. describe the difference of outdoor camping today and what it was beforeD. imply the strong influence of the consuming society on the outdoor travel34. The author believes that .A. the government is right to sell or lease public lands to wealthy developersB. public lands shouldn't have been sold or leased to individuals for profitsC. nature should be left for wide public to enjoy rather than to rentD. the outdoor campers should be more clear-minded in spending money35. What can ordinary city dwellers do if the current outdoor travel trend continues?A. They can do nothing but give up their outdoor travel.B. They would feel angry and protest against the ill-trend.C. The government and the industry may change their attitude.D. Fewer and fewer urban people will make their seasonal outdoor travel.Part III V ocabulary and Structure (20 points)36.

The rubber squares are up to three times more expensive than concrete squares but 77 longer, because tree roots and freezing weather won't crack them. That, 78 , could reduce the number of slip-and-fall complaints made 79 uneven pavements.

Different people have different answers of this question. Some like Movie Stars, while others like Sports Stars, I myself prefer Sports Stars to Movie Stars.Although Movie Stars and Sports Stars are both public figures to ordinary people, although they are both wealthy, although Movie Stars are more popular than Sports Stars, I still like Sports Stars best, because on the one hand, they create a kind of sport spirit characterized with openness, fairness, justice. On the other hand, Sports Stars usually have a strong will and never-give-up determination in their careers; take World Table Tennis Championship Miss Deng Y aping as an example, her hard work and determination to success helped her overcome many disadvantages, her brilliant achievements have definitely proved that height was nothing but hard work was everything.So far as Sports Stars are concerned, I think they are such kind of persons who are worthy of recognition, who I look up to when it comes to the game. Sports Stars are examples that whatever my dream will be, it is possible to become just as what it might be. And whatever my goal will be, I can only reach it with a little hard work, effort, and commitment.。

Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years. Each couple provided four photographs—one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriageand another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some testees were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group. Their judgements were no better than chance. But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the testees were quite successful with the most happily-married couples.Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it. He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones. “Another possible reason,”he says, “is the common experience of the couples.”There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.21. Dr. Aiken cut the background from the photos for the purpose of __________.A. imitating the couples’lifeB. grouping the couples againC. leaving no trace for the testeesD. giving the testees more chances22. The underlined sentence “Their ju dgements were no better than chance”implies that the testees __________.A. did a good job in making their choices.B. had difficulty in picking out the partnersC. had no chance to make the right judgementsD. did better with the first group than with the second23. The underlined word “imitate”(in Para. 2) has a similar meaning to __________.A. copyB. changeC. knowD. suffer24. From the passage we can draw the conclusion that___________.A. couples who look alike can live longerB. most partners have been proved to grow alikeC. the influence between partners can be quite strongD. happily-married couples are often richer than others25. The main purpose of the passage is to ___________.A. explain why couples grow alikeB. tell how couples like each otherC. discuss the function of marriageD. describe the life of happily married couplesPassage ThreeThe three biggest lies in America are: (1) “The check is i n the mail”, (2) “Of course I’ll respect you in the mornin g”, and (3) “It was a computer error.”Of these three little white lies, the worst is the third. It’s the only one that can never be true. T oday, if a bank state ment cheats you out of $ 900 that way, you know what the clerk is sure to say,”It was a computer error.”Nonsense.The computer is reporting nothing more than what the clerk typed into it.The most annoying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery store shows that an item costs more than it actually does. If the innocent buyer points out the m istake, the checker, bagger, and manager all come together and offer the familiar explanation: “It was a compute error.”It wasn’t, of course that computerized cashier is really n othing more than an electric event. The eye reads the Unive rsal Product Code—chat bar of black and white lines in a c orner of the package—and then checks the code against a price list stored in memory. If the price list is right, you’ll b e charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each day—that is, so mebody sits at a keyboard and types in the prices. If the pr ice they type in is too high, there are only two explanations: carelessness or dishonesty. But somehow “a computer erro r”is supposed to excuse everything.One reason we let people hide behind a computer is the common misperception that huge, modern computers are e lectric brain with “artificial intelligence.”At some point ther e might be a machine with intelligence but none exists toda y. The smartest computer on Earth right now is no more int elligent than your average pen. At this point in the develop ment of computers, the only thing any machine can do is w hat a human has instructed it to do.26. Of the three lies, the one about computer is the wors t because the computer itself __________.A. says nonsenseB. cheats customersC. cannot make the errorD. does not admit its error27. According to the author, a computerized cashier is re ally just ___________.A. a machine to count moneyB. a machine to receive m oneyC. an instrument to print codesD. an instrument to read codes28. Grocery store price lists are updated by ____________.A. a computerB. a keyboardC. an employeeD. an electr ic brain29. The last paragraph of the passage implies that compu ters ____________.A. are very cleverB. never make mistakesC. have a good memoryD. are controlled by men30. Which of the following describes the main idea of the passage?A. Computers are stupid and inefficient.B. Computer errors are due to its dishonesty.C. Computers help stores update the price list.第5/9页D. Computer errors are actually human errors.Passage FourI came across an old country guidebook the other day. It listed all the tradesmen in each village, and it was impressi ve to see the past variety of services which were available o n one’s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside.Nowadays a traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either sellin g frozen food to the villagers or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has been a decline of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable.Our local grocer’s shop, for example, is actually expandi ngin spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nea rest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermarket. And the grocer knows well that pe rsonal service has a considerable cash value.His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, b ut he will deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch h our to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happe ned to be passing. The richer customers telephone their sho pping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodit y outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced-figure, instantly obtains it for them.31. Nowadays the commercial services in the village are _ ___________.A. still very activeB. quickly decliningC. unable to flourishD. personal to visitors32. The local grocer’s shop is expanding because ________ _____.A. the competition there is weakB. it is a place for wom en to chatC. it provides good personal serviceD. the goods there a re more valuable33. Which of the following is true about the supermarket s?A. Prices there are much higherB. Customers often have to queue up.C. Customers can order by telephone.D. Their personal s ervices are satisfactory.34. How do the village grocer’s assistants feel about givi ng extra service?A. They don’t think it a trouble.B. They don’t think it worthwhile.C. They don’t consider it a good deal.D. They do n’t c onsider it a pleasant experience.35. One special feature of the village shop is that ________ ___.A. there is a very wide range of goods availableB. customers can order goods by word of mouthC. customer have to order goods one hour earlierD. there is a list of goods to be delivered to doorstepsPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.
