AI picked up my two best friends and we were off on a road trip. I had just returned to America from a year abroad in China. So, naturally I wanted to take a trip to Canada.Montreal, the second largest city in Canada, is a four-hour drive from my home in New Hampshire. We felt a thrill as we crossed the border into Canada. It was the first time that I had ever driven across an international border. We turned on the radio to try and find some Canadian stations.After dropping off our bags at our hotel, we were immediately walking down the famous Saint Catherine Street. While we walked, two things surprised us: how cold it was and how well everyone dressed. The streets of Montreal are like a fashion show. Both men and women look like they stepped out of the pages of a magazine.All of that fashion has to keep them warm since Montreal is so cold. Last year it broke the record for the most snowfall in North America. To hide from the cold we went into a diner because we wanted to order poutine, a very popular snack in Montreal. It is French fries covered in cheese and brown gravy(肉汁). It is delicious.However, we had a hard time ordering the dish since the official language of Montreal is French. It is actually the fifth largest French-speaking city in the world. But since almost the rest of Canadians speak English, plenty of people were there to help.We spent the rest of the weekend going to many historical churches and monuments in Montreal. But at night we’d head to the very modern dance clubs and bars. Montreal is a city that sits between the past and the future and the traveller can choose whichever direction he wants to go.1. Which of the following can NOT be concluded from Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4?A. The author and his friends couldn't wait to explore the city.B. The author wasn’t used to the weather of Montreal.C. The citizens from Montreal care much about what they wear.D. Montreal often holds fashion shows.2. What can we infer from the passage?A. The author often went to China for a visit.B. The people they met in the diner were kind and helpful.C. All the people in the diner were locals.D. The author went to Montreal on business.3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The author listened to Canadian radio programmes and chose their first stop as advised.B. The author took a trip to Montreal—the third largest city in Canada.C. Montreal broke the record for the most snowfall in the world last year.D. Montreal is a city which is both traditional and modern.BCities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning. An avalanche(雪崩)once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go—to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City—its present population is 762.4. What attracted the early settlers to New York City?A. Its business culture.B. Its small population.C. Its geographical position.D. Its favourable climate.5. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?A. Two-thirds of them stayed there.B. One out of five people got rich.C. Almost everyone gave up.D. Half of them died.6. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson?A. They found the city too crowded.B. They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.C. They were unable to stand the winter.D. They were short of food.7. What is the text mainly about?A. The rise and fall of a city.B. The gold rush in Canada.C. Journeys into the wilderness.D. Tourism in Dawson.CDon’t go to Kauai. Go to any of the other Hawaiian Islands —Maui, Lanai, the Big Island —but leave Kauai for us. The weather in Kauai is so unpredictable that sometimes it rains all day —in fact, it’s the second-wettest spot on the earth. Yes, there are giant double rainbows all the time, and the sunlight through the clouds is magical. But if you are not interested in these, go somewhere else. You just can’t control nature on Kauai, and who wants to surrender to nature when you could be at a fine hotel, lying in a comfortable chair next to a swimming pool, with food served upon request?So what if Kauai produces surf champions the way Texas produces cowboys? Most of is 300 white-sand beaches are unmarked. Unless you connect with the local people, the hidden spots are hard to find. While Hanalei is the most beautiful town you’ve ever dreamed of, you can forget about discos and clubs. Worse, it doesn’t have one single four-star restaurant. What it does have is the original drive-through places where you pass by a rambutan tree(红毛丹树), and pick a piece of fruit.Shopping in Kauai? Forget it —unless you are interested in shell necklaces and beautifully carved wood bowls. Kauai is not about pampering. It’s about going natural and finding the nature within you. It’s a do-it-yourself place that offers walking along the coast, driving and swimming in the Pacific Ocean, and lying on the beach.Don’t go to Kauai unless you have a lot of time, because there’s only one road, which can be slightly dull. It winds through the beautiful scenery of waterfalls, rivers flowing into the ocean, and taro(芋头)fields. You have no choice but to look at everything, because the speed limit is 35 m. p. h.If you’re not interested in color, don’t bother with Kauai, because that’s what you get —red roads, blue oceans, and a hundred different shades of green. It’s like diving on land. Many people in Kauai believe that this is Lemuria —a lost island in the Atlantic. Can you imagine? Those Hawaiians, surfers, New Agers, and people who love nature and beauty and want a different quality of life —what do they know, anyway? Forget about it —you’re not going to like it. Go somewhere else. Leave Kauai for us.8. After reading the text, we come to know that it is ________.A. a piece of shocking newsB. an exciting storyC. an angry complaint about a tourist attractionD. a moving advertisement9. It can be learned from the text that ________.A. Kauai is an island near the Hawaiian Islands答卷时应注意事项1、拿到试卷,要认真仔细的先填好自己的考生信息。

The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer (征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.In the 1840s the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage (短缺) of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly. Oscar Wilde, a fa mous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”. Since independence, Ireland has revived (复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc..16. What does the author tell us in Paragraph 1?A. How the Irish fought against the English.B. How Ireland gained independence.C. How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.D. How two “Irelands” came into being.17. We learn from the text that in Ireland ________.A. food shortages in the 1840s led to a decline in populationB. people are moving to the cities for lack of work in the countrysideC. it is harder to make a living as a farmer than as a factory workerD. different kinds of old Irish songs are all sung with instruments18. The last paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the Irish characterB. Irish cultureC. Irish musical instrumentsD. a famous Irish writer19. What can be the best title for the text?A. Life in IrelandB. A Very Difficult HistoryC. Ireland, Past and PresentD. The Independence of IrelandⅣ.七选五Public Speaking and Critical ThinkingWhat is critical thinking? To a certain degree, it's a matter of logic (逻辑) — of being able to spot weaknesses in other people's arguments and to avoid them in your own. It also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence.In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused, organized thinking —the ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas. __20__ The greatest thinkers, scientists, and inventors have often taken information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas. That, too, is critical thinking.__21__ As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a purely mechanical (机械的) exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking is also disordered and confused. If, on the other hand, the structure is clear, there is a good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have. __22__ What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking. __23__ As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately. __24__ As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class, you will be better able to assessthe ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.A. Rather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.B. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.C. It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech.D. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.E. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot.F. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways.G. As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking, you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication as well.Ⅴ.短文改错Last Sunday morning, when I was having a walk in the park near my home, I came across a crew make a new film with one of my favourite actor.I didn't have my camera with me at that time,but I rushed back home to get. Unfortunately, by the time I got back, they have finished the scene and the actor couldn't be seen everywhere. I was really disappointing and about to leave when he walked out a building. He was right there in the front of me! I couldn't believe my luck — not only did I had my photo taken with him,but he signed his name on my shirt!答案Ⅰ.词汇知识1.It was a pity that the great writer died ________ his works unfinished.A. forB. withC. fromD. of答案与解析B要排除die for, die from和die of的干扰。

AHolidaysHoliday NewsVacations(空位) now and in the school holidays at a country hotel in Devon.This comfortable, friendly home-from-home lies near the beautiful quiet countryside, but just a drive away from the sea.The food is simple but good.Children and pets are welcome.Reduced prices for low season.The Snowdonia CentreThe Snowdonia Centre for young mountain climbers has a mountain climbing lesson.The beginners' costs are 57 for a week, including food and rooms.Equipment is included except walking shoes, which can be hired at a low cost.You must be in good health and prepared to go through a period of body exercises.This could be the beginning of a lifetime of mountain climbing adventure.The World Sea Trip of a LifetimeOur World Sea Trip of 2008 will be unlike any holiday you have ever been on before.Instead of one hotel after another, with all its packing and unpacking, waiting and travelling, you just go to bed in one country and wake up in another.On board the ship, you will be well taken care of.Every meal will be first-class(一流的) and every cabin(船舱) like your home.During the trip, you can rest on desk(甲板),enjoy yourself in the games rooms and in the evening dance to our musical team and watch our wonderful play.You will visit all the places most people only dream about-from Acapulco and Hawaii to Tokyo and Hong Kong.For a few thousand, all you've ever hoped for can be yours.21.What can you do if you like to go on holidays with pets?A.Choose the holiday in Devon.B.Go to the Snowdonia Centre.C.Join the World Sea Trip of 2008.D.Visit Acapulco and Hawaii.22.In what way is the Snowdonia Centre different from the other two holidays?A.It provides chances of family gatherings.B.It provides customers with good food.C.It offers a sports lesson.D.It offers comfortable rooms.23.What is special about the World Sea Trip of 2008?A.You can have free meals on deck every day.B.You can sleep on a ship and tour many places.C.You will have chances to watch and act in a play.D.You have to do your own packing and unpacking.BIn the US,people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don't know.This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available even if a large one is.If you are sitting at a table with people you don't know,it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them.At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water(自来水)before you order.You may find the bread and butter is free,and if you order coffee,you may get a free refill.Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants,though they usually do make rules for bars.Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.Serving in restaurants is often large, too large for many people.If you can't finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later ask your waitress or waiter for a“doggie bag”.It may have a picture of a dog on it,but everybody knows you're taking the food for yourself.Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal.Some people have“Sunday dinner”.This is an especially big noon meal.Tips are not usually added to the check.They are not included in the price of the meal,either.A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave.In some restaurants,a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there.Then the waiter or waitress brings you your change.24.Which of the following statements is true?A.American people like sitting with people they don't know.B.A hostess always seats a small group at a large table.C.American people never sit with people they don't know.D.American people will not light a cigarette if the people who sit at the same table mind their smoking.25.What is served before you order?A.Bread.B.Butter.C.Coffee.D.Cold water.26.What do American people always do when servings are too large for them?A.Th ey take the food home with a“doggie bag”for their dogs.B.They leave the food on the table and go away.C.They take the food home with a“doggie bag”and enjoy the food later.D.They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them.27.What can you learn about“tips”according to the passage?A.Customers often add tips to their cheek.B.The price of the meal usually includes the tip.C.People are not expected to pay tips in addition.D.Tips are supposed to be left on the table when customers leave.CSo you think you know your dog.But how well does your dog know you? She probably recognizes you when she sees you.But can a dog tell by simply looking at you whether you have a happy or an angry expression on your face? Researchers in Austria have taught pet dogs to know the difference.Dogs are very mindful of sound.When dog owners shout or speak in a strong, harsh(刺耳的) voice, dogs often act guilty and quietly move away from the area.Researchers have found that dogs can look at our faces, and tell the difference between a smile and a frown.The animals were able to recognize a look of approval from one of disapproval.Researchers performed a series of experiments.They taught dogs to recognize facial expressions.They showed the dogs two pictures of either the upper of lower half of a person's face.On one picture, the person looked happy.The other appeared angry.The dogs were then shown images of the eyes or mouths of people they had never seen before.They were also shown the left half of the faces used in training.Once the dogs learned to recognize which image was happy or angry, they could easily identify the same expressions in pictures of any face.Corsin Muller, who led the study, says future studies will try to show whether dogs can learn the meaning of facial expressions—for example, whether a frown shows that someone is angry.“What we can say with our study is that they can tell these ones are different.But what we cannot be sure of at this point is what exact meaning they are associating with these different expressions.”“Of course it seems likely that they would associate (联系)some positive meanings with the smiley face and they would associate some rather negative meanings with the angry face.But what exactly they are associating with these expressions we cannot know at this point.” Corsin says.28.The passage tells us mainly about .A.how dogs communicate with each otherB.what are the best ways to train our dogsC.why it's necessary to know our pet dogs wellD.whether dogs can recognize our facial expressions29.We know from the second paragraph that a dog .A.pays little attention to its owner's looks B.has to be trained to recognize our voicesC.is very sensitive to its owner's voices D.will feel guilty if their owner frowns30.According to Corsin Muller, it's been proven that dogs know .A.the exact meaning of a frown B.a frown is an angry expressionC.human looks carry different meanings D.a smiley face may have negative meanings31.In which part of a website does the text probably appear?A.Technology.B.Education.C.Language.D.Economics.DHere is an astonishing and significant fact: Mental work alone can't make us tired.It sounds absurd.But a few years ago, scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue (疲劳).To the amazement of these scientists, they discovered that blood passing through the brain, when it is active, shows no fatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins(毒素) and fatigue products.But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.So far as the brain is concerned, it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning.The brain is totally tireless.So what makes us tired?Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue comes from our mental and emotional(情绪的) attitudes.One of England's most outstanding scientists, J.A.Hadfield, says, “T he greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin.In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.” Dr.Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further.He declares, “One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.”What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness, worry, a feeling of not being appreciated-those are the emotions that tire sitting workers.Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue.We get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body.32.What amazed the scientists a few years ago?A.Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborer's blood.B.Albert Einstein didn't feel worn after a day's work.C.The brain could work for many hours without fatigue.D.A mental worker's blood was filled with fatigue toxins.33.According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired?A.Challenging mental work.B.Unpleasant emotions.C.Endless tasks.D.Physical labor.34.What's the author's attitude towards the scientists' idea?A.He agrees with them.B.He doubts them.C.He argues against them.D.He hesitates to accept them.35.We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic, sitting workers need to .A.have some good food B.enjoy their workC.exercise regularly D.discover fatigue toxins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。

Malthus,an Englishman.The book was forty years old, and Malthus was already dead.But it suddenly pushed Darwin nearer to some answers.Malthus said, “The number of people in the world can grow very quickly.Just think,a man and his wife could have ten children.When these ten grow up, every one of them could have ten more children. So now we have a hundred children.Again,if every one of these has ten children,we will have a thousand children and this can continue.We will have more and more people.”All this could happen.But did it?Malthus said,“No.It doesn’t happen in the real world.The number of people remains almost the same.Why?The reason is this.We just can’t grow food quickly enough.Soon there’s not enough food.So some people can’t eat.They die before they bring any more children into the world.”These ideas came at just the right time for Darwin.He asked one more question:Which people will die before they have children?For Malthus,this was not an important question.But for Darwin,it was very important.He asked,“Which people will have children?Why does this man have children,and why does that man not have any?”And soon of course he was thinking of the Galapagos finches(雀类鸟)again.“The number of finches remains almost the same.So usually two bi rds must give us only two new birds.But a finch lays more than two eggs.Which two young birds will live,and give us more eggs?Which will not?”The answer is some birds can’t get enough food—they will die.But why can’t they get enough?Why are some birds better than them?The birds in one family are not quite the same.Some are stronger,some are quicker,some are bigger,some have longer beaks,some have lighter bodies.The best birds will live.And always an answer brought with a question:What is “best”?Darwin no w had his list of facts and questions,answers and ideas.Could he put them together and make a clear story?Could he explain the evolution(进化)of the finches?He could and he did.56.What are the general differences between Darwin and Malthus according to the passage?A.Darwin thought of the evolution while Malthus considered the starvation.B.Malthus believed that more food was needed for more people while Darwin found the answer to the problem of how to keep the“best one”.C.Darwin concluded“the survival of the fittest”,while Malthus made it clear that the lack of food might prevent the increase of population.D.Malthus felt it important for people to live better while Darwin supposed it more important for birds to have more young ones.57.What is Malth us’ point of view about the problem of population?A.It is natural for the population to increase without any plan.B.It is unnecessary to make people have fewer children.C.Some people could not have fewer children because of the lack of food.D.The number of people would remain almost the same if the food conditions would not change.58.What was the result of Darwin’s research?A.He wanted to find out why some birds can live better while some others cannot.B.He only made an answer to the question “What is the best?”C.He explained the evolution of the finches through his observation(观察).D.He discovered a lot more“Whys”than Malthus did.59.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Darwin developed his theory with the help of Malthus’.B.Darwin agreed completely with Malthus.C.Darwin held the same opinion that lack of food made people have fewer children.D.Darwin used finches to do experiments before using people.60.From the passage we can find out the author__________.A.preferred talking about Darwin to MalthusB.just gave some facts of scientists’ research work without any comments(评论)C.thought Malthus’ book led Darwin to the scientific research of the birdsD.believed Darwin had done much more research work than Malthus ever did56.提示:根据文章的第二、三段及后三段可得出该题的答案.答案:C57.提示:请参见文章第二段.答案:D58.提示:由文章最后一句“He could and he did.”即He could and did explain the evolution of finches.可知.答案:C59.答案:A60.提示:A、D两项明显不对.C项为最大的干扰项,但从文章第一段就可以看出,Malthus 的书对达尔文的研究只起到促进作用.答案:BBI had my first job at th e age of thirteen,when a friend of my mother’s who owned a bookshop hired me for six hours a week to help her in the shop.I was very proud to earn my own pocketmoney and my parents never interfered(干涉)with how I spent it,even when I was spending it foolishly.They believed that by earning money,spending it,and learning from my mistakes.I would become more mature and responsible about how to handle work,relationships with others,and money.Like many American parents,my parents also let me and my brothers do things over which they worried a great deal.When I was sixteen,for example,after I finished high school and before I entered university,I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around Europe.My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age,but my father felt that it would be a great experience for me.In the end,my father won the argument on the condition that I limited my traveling to France,my mother’s home,where I had many uncles,aunts and cousins spread out through the country who could provide shelter and help if I needed it.Three years later,when he was eighteen,my younger brother decided to take a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean.Again my mother was very worried and not eager to see my brother leave school,but my father encouraged him and my brother had a fascinating year working his way on trains and ships to earn passage to different ports and cities,and discovering many fascinating places and people.These kinds of experiences are probably rare for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly common.Most parents start pushing their children at a young age to do small things by themselves.By the time they have finished high school,many American kids have already had part-time jobs,traveled around the US or other countries on their own,selected the university they plan to attend and maybe even decided on their future career,and so on.61.Why did the writer’s parents allow their children to do w hat they want?A.Because they thought that their children would become braver.B.Because they believed that their two sons would earn some pocket money.C.Because they thought that their children would find a job easier.D.Because they thought that it would bring good to their children’s future.62.What does the writer think of his brother’s travel?A.He thought his brother gained valuable experiences during the travel.B.He thought his brother earned a lot of money by working.C.He thought his brot her didn’t disappoint his father.D.He thought his brother’s travel was better than his to France.63.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.The author went to France in order to see his relatives.B.The writer’s mother managed to prevent the chi ldren doing what she thought might be dangerous.C.The writer’s brother gave up his university to travel through the USA and the Caribbean.D.American kids do things by themselves to make preparations for the future with the encouragement

disease in five American homosexuals(同性恋).Soon doctors were finding similar cases all over the country and the world.The AIDS epidemic(流行病)had officially begun.By 1983 it was clear that AIDS had spread around the world.More than twenty years later,AIDS has left twenty-six million dead and another forty million infected.AIDS has become the worst medical disaster ever experienced by mankind.Hundreds of young people between the ages of 20 and 45 died each week during the early years of the U.S.AIDS.More than 600 000 cases of AIDS have been reported since 1981 in the United States,and it is estimated that there may be as many as 900 000 Americans infected with HIV.Though the rate of HIV infections continues to increase in the United States,the number of AIDS cases has fallen sharply since 1996,when antiretroviral drugs came into the market. Unfortunately, the AIDS epidemic continues today in Africa and much of Asia,where antiretroviral treatment is not available and health care is far from enough.AIDS is the fourth leading cause of death worldwide, and the No.1 cause of death due to infectious disease.HIV,the virus that causes AIDS,was first separated in 1983 by a team at the Pasteur Institute in Paris.That discovery made it possible to develop a test for AIDS and trace back to victims who may have died before doctors were aware of the disease.However,scientists still don’t know exactly how and where AIDS started.Finding the source of AIDS could be important in developing a vaccine(疫苗)and be important in mapping the future course of the epidemic.65.It can be inferred from the passage that__________.A.antiretroviral drugs will be obtained easily all over the worldB.the best way to stop AIDS is to develop a vaccineC.scientists will soon find a way to cure AIDSD.therewill be fewer AIDS cases in the world in the future66.The number of AIDS cases has greatly decreased in the United States due to the fact __________.A.a team at the Pasteur Institute in Paris succeeded in separating HIVB.some effective medicine has been inventedC.scientists understand AIDS better and betterD.the rate of HIV infections continues to rise in the United States67.What’s the importance of the discovery of the source of AIDS?A.It can be used to develop a test for AIDS.B.It can stop HIV forming AIDS.C.It can reduce the rate of death caused by AIDS.D.It can help develop a drug to prevent AIDS.68.When did the name of AIDS come into being?A.In 1983.B.In 1981.C.In 1996.D.In 1994.65.提示:推测题.由常识得出,疫苗是阻止流行病的最佳途径.由最后一段得出答案.答案:B66.提示:细节理解题.美国投入市场的这种药降低了艾滋病的发病率.由第三段“... when antiretroviral drugs came into the

arrived.It was a flat with seven independent rooms and a shared bathroom and kitchen.All of my flatmates are all students from Britain.I thought I was lucky to be part of this flat with these energetic young men.However,I found myself unhappy with them only a few days after I stayed there.These young people seemed never to be ually they would not come back until late into the night.They even played football in the room whenever they like,whether it’s early morning or late night.Worse still,they always had parties.Those loud music and laughter made me sleepless the whole night.Finally,I had no choice but to ask the authority to move me to another flat where most of the students were international students pursuing their master degrees.They were older in age and held heavier study burdens.So they were quieter.My advice for those who want to study in the UK is to get in touch with the International Student Accommodation Service of your school first and tell them to arrange for you to share a flat with graduates before you come here.69.What’s the main subject discussed in this passage?A.Housing hunting while studying abroad.B.Living with young British

excuse in order not to the front.Another soldier whose name was Bob reported the captain about it.Fred was punished for it.He hated Bob and the captain very much.In a fight he hurt the captain and he
