However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs.

We don't know the result yet（D）Most people feel lonely sometimes, but it usually only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for yeas・ Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness・ The first kind of loneliness is temporary （暂时tl勺）• This is the most common type・ 1（ usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of a particular situation-for example, family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place・ Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a yea匚The third kind of loneliness is the most severe・ Unlike the second type, chronic （长期tl勺）usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.Psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person's social contacts, e.g. friends, family members, co-workers, etc. we depend on various people for different reasons・ For instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lonely people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more. They questiontheir popularity・Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be normal, healthy pail of life, chronic loneliness can be a sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.101.How would you treat temporary loneliness according to the passage?A.

The jewels are wasted unless you open the box and see them.Another important principle of " Smile Power" is that a good smile is an essential part of every successful person's equipment. A good smile makes a person attractive to friends and employers. A bad smile can make other people like you less.A smile can do a lot of good when we are traveling. If you miss a train, for example, it is no use standing on the platform and shouting at the ticket collector. You won't make him work faster. Let us imagine you are traveling in France and don't know the language well. If you just stand at the ticket office counter( 柜台) saying "Two tickets to Marseilles" in English, the French ticket clerk may think you are rude or stupid. But if you add a pleasant smile, he will understand and probably help you.When you arrive at the station you'll find that you have five minutes to catch the underground train. It is rush hour and the escalator (自动扶手) is crowded with people who are late for work. So you smile and murmur (低声说) , " Excuse me, may I get through, please?"People are always ready to help a pleasant person, and you will find plenty of offers of help when you reach your train.

Silk is made from the cocoons (茧) of silkworms. Impressive_y, a silkworm spins (纺织) its cocoon 17 five or six days without 18 . A single cocoon is made up of one continuous silk fiber (纤维) about one mile long!Today, harvesting silk is much more complicated than the ancient process. During the ancient times, silk was used to make 19 rich androyal(皇家)clothing. The Chinese kept the secret to making silk for almost 4,000 years.Indonesia was the first outside of China to make silk. These days, a silk cocoon is taught to a fine lustrous(华丽) silk thread called raw silk. Raw silk is a natural thread and 20 enough to reeled easily directly from the cocoon.

For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 23 to 29If you go into a bookshop and look at the shelves, you may easily get the impression that scientists are a special group of people, different from the rest of us. But if you look more closely, you will see what really distinguishes scientists from others is practical, rather than intellectual ability. The main reason why one scientist makes an important discovery and another does not, is often that the first knew what he was looking for, whereas the second did not.A scientist must be very careful. He must make sure that the work he does, whatever it is, can be repeated by others. He must record everything that he does, so that others can repeat it successfully. When a scientist makes a discovery, he is only suggesting to others that they should test it by the same methods.Where, then, do scientific discoveries come from? It is a popular belief that they come suddenly and unexpectedly, when a scientist is not even looking for them. But it would be more accurate to say that a man gets a scientific idea when a lot of pieces of knowledge, stored in his mind, fall into each other, forming a new pattern. During his daily work, a scientist will fall upon all kinds of ideas. He must regard them all with suspicion, for most of these ideas will be wrong.23. According to the passage, what distinguishes scientists from others?A. Their knowledge.B. Their intelligence.C. Their practical ability.D. Their academic achievements.24. What is the main reason for one scientist's success and another's failure?A. Intellectual ability.B. Excessive caution.C. Practical ability.D. Clear objectives.25. What should a scientist do after making a discovery?A. Keep it to himself.B. Continue experimenting.C. Publish it for others to test.D. Guard against repeating it.26. What does a scientific discovery result from according to the passage?A. Luck.B. Hard work.C. Unexpected occurrences.D. Accumulated knowledge.27. How should a scientist treat the ideas he has during his daily work?A. Believe in them.B. Reject them all.C. Test them.D. Record them carefully.28. What should a scientist do with his idea according to the passage?A. Regard it with suspicion.B. Accept it immediately.C. Ignore it.D. Share it with others.29. What is the popular belief about scientific discoveries?A. They come suddenly.B. They frequently happen.C. They result from hard work.D. They are easily achieved.Part V Writing (30 points)Section ADirections: After reading the following dialogue, you should complete the paragraph by filling in the blanks with the information in the passage given below.

However, its important to remember that it's 22 to try to learn at least a few words ofthe language wherever you go. For example, as I discovered, even 23 speaking a little of the local language can make your stay more 24 .I have never forgotten my first trip to Paris. It was a long time ago and I could speak only a few words of French, but I was 25 to really try anyway. I began by learning 26 words such as "please" and "thank you" and I learned to say "Where is" for 27 for directions. As it 28 , this small amount of knowledge really 29 the ice, as the French were always 30 to help. Because I showed that I was willing to try to speak their language, the French people were more than 31 to speak English to me if they knew a little. Even when I made mistakes, people were 32 than happy to help me correct them.I quickly found that simple, 33 mistakes often made people laugh and put them at 34 immediately. Language barriers can make for 35 moments between people. I recall arguing with a Paris taxi driver and 36 to communicate when the driver stopped his cab without 37 and ran into a shop for a moment.

But a new study suggests that standing desks may not be as beneficial as previously thought.The study, published in the journal Ergonomics, involved 350 employees who were divided into two groups - one group used standing desks for two hours a day while the other group worked at sitting desks. The participants were asked to rate their comfort, fatigue, and pain over a period of three months.Surprisingly, the study found that employees who used standing desks reported no significant improvements in comfort, fatigue, or pain compared to those who remained seated. The researchers concluded that standing for a short period may not be enough to counteract the long hours of sedentary behavior many employees face.The study also pointed out that standing desks could potentially lead to negative effects, such as musculoskeletal discomfort, decreased flexibility, and reduced productivity. Some participants in the standing desk group reported experiencing pain in their legs and feet, leading to decreased performance and discomfort while working.While standing desks may have some benefits, it is important for employers and employees to consider the potential negative impacts before making the switch. Finding a balance between sitting and standing, along with regular movement breaks, may be the key to improving both health and productivity in the workplace.57. Standing desks have become increasingly popular in the workplace.58. The study involved 350 employees who used standing desks for two hours a day.59. Employees who used standing desks reported no significant improvements in comfort, fatigue, or pain.60. Standing for a short period may not be enough to counteract long hours of sedentary behavior.61. Some participants in the standing desk group experienced pain in their legs and feet.62. Finding a balance between sitting and standing is important for improving health and productivity.Part IV Translation (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.
