AThere is a bar in our town with the name “The White Horse”. It 's Mr. Webster's. Few people went to the bar last year, but thi ngs are quite different now.There was a picture of a white horse on the door of the bar. T hen a stranger came in one day, drank something, looked aro und the bar and then said to Mr. Webster "Few people come here. Take down the picture of the white horse and put on a pi cture of a black horse instead.""But the name of the bar is ‘The White Horse’.” Mr. Webster s aid."Yes, but do it." The man said. Then he went out of the bar.[] Mr. Webster went to an artist and said, "I want a picture of a b lack horse."The next day a picture of a black horse was on the door of the bar instead of that of the white horse. Soon after the door op ened, a man came in and said, "There is a mistake on the doo r of your bar, and the picture is different from the name." The man looked, sat down and drank something.Then another man came in and said the same, and then anot her and another. A lot of people came in and said "The pictur e on your door is wrong." And they all stopped and drank in M r. Webster's bar.1. The stranger told Mr. Webster to take down the picture of t he white horse because he knew ________.A. people would come in and tell the picture was different from the nameB. the picture of the white horse wasn't good for the barC. people would understand the picture different from the nam eD. a picture of a black horse showed good luck2. Mr. Webster agreed with the stranger ________.A. because he knew he was an artistB. though he didn't like the black horseC. though he wasn't ready to do it at firstD. because he want ed to change the picture3. More and more people came to the bar because ________.A. it had changed its nameB. they wanted to show t he mistakeC. the bar had a black horseD. the black horse was bet ter than the white one4. From the story we have learned that ________.A. if your business isn't good, you'd better change the name o r the pictureB. when you have difficulty, don't give upC. if you are in trouble, you should take others' ideasD. when a good name is given, it can cause successBWhy do people lie? A person lies to get himself out of a difficu lt or stressful situation or he lies to gain some benefits. So ho w should we go about recognizing those common indications(暗示) that someone is lying? Let's begin.Scratching(抓，挠) the neck，throat or mouth. When a person tells lies，he will put himself under pressure and this tends to heat up th e whole body. In order to release this heat，the liar will start to scratch his body to release the heat. Shaking of a leg or a foot. When telling a lie，a person controls his facial expression because he knows that the other person is looking at his face. However，when one is totally focused on controlling the upper body，the lower body will get out of control，which is an indication of lying.Eye direction. When a person is trying to answer a hard quest ion，usually the eyes will be looking to the left to recall things from his memory. When one cannot find the answer，the eyes will shift to look at the right which indicates that he is constructing something that is usually a lie.For more techniques to become a more effective communicator，please refer to other articles on this website.5.The writer wrote this passage to ________.A．tell us how to detect lies through body languageB．tell us the importance of detecting liesC．prove that lies can be easily detectedD．explain why people tell lies6．According to the writer，the liar will start to scratch his body because ________. A．he feels very nervous B．he is trying to calm down C．he wants to draw attention to himself D．he wants to rel ease heat7．Where is this passage probably taken from?A．A website B．A magazine. C．A newspaper D ．A letter.CMany pet owners see their pets as family members. However ，when they have to go away on business or for some other rea sons, they feel guilty about it and wish they could do somethin g for their deeply loved pets. The Pet Hotel is set up especiall y for this reason.What do we offer?The Pet Hotel offers pets large rooms and the latest equipme nt.

AYou probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not ha ve heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed b elow, who do you think was the most important woman of thepast 100 years?Jane Addams (1860－1935)Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jan e Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区)by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first America n woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.Rachel Carson (1907－1964)If it weren't for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring rai sed awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful eff ects of chemicals on humans and on the world's lakes and oc eans.Sandra Day O'Connor (1930－present)When Sandra Day O'Connor finished third in her class at Stan ford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state se nator(参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U．S. Supreme C ourt. O'Connor gave the deciding vote in many important case s during her 24 years on the top court.Rosa Parks (1913－2005)On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rasa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a passenger. Her sim ple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgom ery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off t he civil－rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in ，” said Parks.1．What is Jane Addams noted for in history?A．Her social work.B．Her lack of proper training in law.C．Her efforts to win a prize.D．Her community background.2．Who made a great contribution to the civil－rights movement in the US?A．Jane Addams.

The discrimination against women.D. The poor financial conditions4.What can we infer about the women mentioned in the text? A．They are highly educated.B．They are truly creative.C．They are pioneers.D．They are peace－lovers.BClimbing the corporate ladder (晋升) during my 32 years at Southern Bell (now AT&T) never ap pealed much to me. But climbing telephone poles? Now that's a whole different story.In 1978, I became the first female lineman in Columbus, Geor gia. I really enjoyed the work, and most of the men accepted me because I worked hard at it. I think that at first, they didn't think I could do it. But I got right in there and proved myself.I was a lineman for about three years. Then l went on to work at other outdoor jobs at the company before l retired in 1997.I decided to become a lineman because I wanted to work outdoors. I was a tomboy (假小子) as a child and even built my own tree house, so you could say I had a little experience. My husband, William, encourage d me to give the job a try. After work, I liked to drive around to wn and show him the wires I'd spliced (加固) that day. People were surprised to see a female lineman. They'd say, “Look, that's a woman up that pole." One day I heard a man sa y, “Oh, look, there's a telephone man-woman!" Safety belts and hooks minimized the risk of falling, but concentration was essential. Sometimes I felt a little nerv ous,but the guys told me I was less likely to fall if I wasn't too confident. It helped that I was strong, because the cables and equipment are heavy. I'm not sure every woman could have d one what I did. 1 took a lot of pride in it.5.When the author first became a lineman, .A. she was sure to be promotedB. she loved it and went all out for itC. she tried her best to convince her husbandD. she received immediate recognition from colleagues6.What is needed to be a lineman according to the author?A. Concentration and strength.B. Confidence and patience.C. Bravery and devotion.D. Efficiency and talent.7.Which of the following best describe the author's husband?A. Outgoing and considerate.B. Proud and demanding.C. Adventurous and humorous.D. Open-minded and supportive.CMotorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves, after e ngineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has b uilt a number of “melody roads”, which use cars as tuning fork s to play music as they travel.The concept works by using grooves(凹槽). They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface. The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.Depending on how far apart the grooves are, a car moving ov er them will produce a series of high or low notes, and designers are able to create a distinct tune.Paten documents for the design describe it as notches “forme d in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing s imple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody-like tones.”There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan —one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song. Reports say the system was invented by Shizuo Shinoda. He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer before driving ove r them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tone s.The optimal speed for melody road is 44kph, but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound.“You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,” wrot e one Japanese blogger. “Driving too fast will sound like playi ng fast forward, while driving around 12mph [20km/h] has a sl ow-motion effect, making you almost car-sick.”8. We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes i s depended on _____.A. how far the grooves areB. how big the grooves areC. the number of the groovesD. the speed of the car9. The underlined word “optimal” in the passage might mean _ _______.A. fastestB. possibleC. bestD. slowest10. In order to hear the music well, you have to ______.A. drive very fastB. drive slowlyC. open the windows wideD. keep the windows closed11. What’s the best title of the passage?A.A New Type of MusicB. Melody Roads in JapanC.A Musical Road SurfaceD.A New Invention in JapanDBabies don't learn to talk just from hearing sounds. New rese arch suggests they're lipreaders too.Florida scientists discovered that starting around age 6 month s, babies begin shifting from the eye gaze(注视)to studying mouths when people talk to them.“In order to imitate you, the baby has to figure out how to sha pe their lips to make that particular sound they're hearing，” e xplains psychologist David Lewkowicz of Florida Atlantic Univ ersity, who led the study. “It's an incredibly complex process.”Apparently it doesn't take them too long to absorb the movem ents that match basic sounds. By their first birthdays, babies s tart shifting back to look you in the eye again — unless they h ear the unfamiliar sounds of a foreign language. Then, they sti ck with lipreading a bit longer.In the experiment, David Lewkowicz tested nearly 180 babies, groups of them at ages 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 months. How? The y showed videos of a woman speaking in English or Spanish t o babies of English speakers. A device tracked where each b aby was focusing his or her gaze and recorded how long the gaze lasted.They found a dramatic shift in attention: When the speaker us ed English, the 4month olds gazed mostly into her eyes. The 6 month olds spent equal amounts of time looking at the eyes and the mouth. The 8 and 10 month olds studied mostly the m outh. At 12 months, attention started shifting back toward thespeaker's eyes.It makes sense that at 6 months, babies begin observing lip m ovement, Lewkowicz says, because that's about the time babi es' brains gain the ability to control their attention rather than automatically look toward noise.But what happened when these babies used to English heard Spanish? The 12 month olds studied the mouth longer, just lik e younger babies. They needed the extra information to decip her (破译)the unfamiliar sounds.“It's a pretty interesting finding，” says University of Iowa psyc hology professor Bob McMurray, who also studies baby spee ch development. The babies “know what they need to know a bout, and they're able to draw their attention to what's importa nt at that point in language de velopment.”12. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Babies Learn to Talk from Hearing SoundsB. Babies Learn to Talk by Reading LipsC. How Babies Learn Language after BirthD. Babies Can Understand a Foreign Language13.

Most of them are unhapp y and worried. But Chris is not. He laughs and tells a story ab out two mice, two “little people” and some cheese.The four are in a maze looking for the cheese. Here, cheese means something important in life, like moving to a new class or getting into college. But they find the cheese is gone. The mice realize that they can’t change what has happened and h ave to find more cheese. This means finding different dreams. The little people, however, can’t do this. They are afraid of ch ange so they find no cheese.After Chris finishes the story, the friends understand one thing : to get more cheese, move in a new direction quickly. His frie nds understand how this can be used in the changes all teens face, such as doing well at school or having good relationships or just feeling good about yourself.25.

And now pilots can order their own “roada ble” plane for just £ 127,000.The plane，which has fold-out wings that span 17．5 ft，has a range of flying distance of 460 miles and can be up to 1 15 mph．Back on the land，it can also travel at “highway speeds” in car mode(状态)．Fuelling the 19 ft long plane couldn’t be simpler—you just drive it into a petrol station and fill it up. A spokeswo man said，“You can keep you ‘light-sport airplane’ in your garage．But because it needs a short r unway to take to the air，you will have to drive to your local airport，fly up to 460 miles，land，and drive directly to your destination．You will always be read y to drive or fly．"The spokeswoman added，“Never let bad weather change your trip．You call simply dive rt(改道)and continue on the ground until the weather clears．”There’s no risk to you—This is only the chance for you to be the first at your home fiel d to unfold your wings and fly into the future．30．According to the text，the “roadable” plane．A．can fly at“highwayspeeds”in car modeB．is a kind of car with fold-out wingsC．is 19ft long and 17．5 ft wide insideD．can only travel on the highway31．We can infer that in the “Back to the Future” movies．A．there are some skillful pilotsB．pilots have no cars to driveC．pilots can’t afford a“roadable”planeD．cars can fly in the sky32．The last sentence of the text aims to．A．call for people to buy the“roadable”planeB．show people the use of the“roadable”planeC．tell people only the“roadable”plane can fly in the future D．ask people to unfold their wings and fly into the futureDMy house is made out of wood, glass and stone. It is also ma de out of software.If you come to visit, you’ll probably be surprised when you come in. Someone will give you an electronic PIN （个人身份号码）to wear. This PIN tells the house who and where you are. The house uses this information to give you what you need. Whe n it’s dark outside, the PIN turns on the lights nearest you, an d then turns them off as you walk away from them. Music mov es with you too. If the house knows your favorite music, it play s it. The music seems to be everywhere, but in fact other peo ple in the house hear different music or no music. If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings.Of course, you are also able to tell the house if you want som ething. There is a home control console (控制台), a small machine that turns things on and off around you. The PIN and the console are new ideas, but they are in fact li ke many things we have today. If you want to go to a movie, y ou need a ticket. If I give you my car keys, you can use my ca r. The car works for you because you have the keys. My hous e works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the consol e.I believe that ten years from now, most new homes will have t he systems that I’ve put in my house. The systems will probab ly be even bigger and better than the ones I’ve put in today.I like to try new ideas. I know that some of my ideas will workbetter than others. But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new, and ask myself instead, “How will I l ive without them?”33. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. How to develop a new system.B. The function of th e PIN.C. A home for the future.D. Easy life in the future.34. What’s the purpose when the writer wrote the fourth parag raph?A. To let readers know why his ideas are new.B. To let readers know how special his house is.C. To explain the importance of the PIN and the console.D. To explain more easily what the functions of the PIN and the console are.35. What is the writer most likely to be according to the passa ge?A. An IT expert.B. A famous doctor.C. An idealistD. An experienced teacher.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。

And I learned it in theback of a New York City taxi cab. Here’s what happened.I got in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station. We w ere driving in the right lane (车道) when all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver used his brakes (车闸), the tires made a loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch (英寸) from the back of the other car.I couldn’t believe it. But then I couldn’t believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head around and he started yelling bad words at us. I couldn’t believe it!And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call: “The L aw of the Garbage Truck (垃圾车).” He said: But then here’s what really blew me away. My t axi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. So, I said: “Why d id you just do that? This guy could have killed us!“Many peopl e are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As thei r garbage piles up, they look for a place to dump (倾倒) it. And if you let them, they’ll dump it on you.“So one day when someone wants to dump on you, don’t take it personally . Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Believe me.You’ll be happier.”So I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run ri ght over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spre ad it to other people at work, at home, or on the street? It was then that I said: “I don’t want their garbage and I’m not going to spread it anymore.”I began to see Garbage Trucks. I see the load people are carr ying. I see them coming to dump it. And like my taxi driver, I d on’t take it personally. I just smile, wave, wish them well, and I move on.28. What happened to the author on his way to Grand Centra l Station?A.

But researchers are warni ng that the blue light their screens give off can stop users getti ng a good night’s sleep. That is because this type of light is si milar to daylight, convincing the brain that it is still daytime. Bl ue light prevents the production of a brain chemical called mel atonin, which helps us fall asleep. By contrast, light which is more orange or red does not prevent melatonin production, p erhaps because our brains recognize it as a cue that the day ends.Scientists have known for years that staring at screens late in the evening can affect sleep--- they are television screens, computer screens or mobile phone screens. However, because mobiles and iPads are by natu re portable --- not to say addictive --- more people are taking them into the bedroom. Users also t end to hold them much closer to their eyes than a computer o r television screen.Researchers are warning that looking at iPad displays for more than two hours leads to lower natural melatonin levels a s the devices give off blue light. They say, “Turning off the dev ices at night is the final solution. But if you have to use these devices at night, dim the display to cut down irritation(刺激，激怒) of the eyes and limit the time you spend on them before b ed.”They wrote in the journal Applied Ergonomics(应用人类工程学) that iPad makers should adjust the spectral power distribu tion(光谱功率分布) of the devices so that they affect the sleep patterns of use rs less.It is not just a good night’s sleep that could be harmed by t oo much late night screen time. Researchers know that long-term harm to sleep patterns can lead to an increased risk of o besity and even cancers.32. Why does Blue light prevent iPad users from sleeping well ? .A. Because it can help decrease the production of melatoninB. Because it is the same as daylight which keeps people aw akeC. Because it makes the brain more activeD. Because it is brighter than light that is more orange or red33. What does the underlined phrase “dim the display” mean? .A. turn off the displayB. keep away from the displayC. make the display less brightD. clean the display carefully34. In the last paragraph, the author intends to ________ .A. show how sleep is harmed by using iPads too muchB. warn of the seriousness of long-term poor sleepC. call on researchers to study sleep patternsD. show the danger of obesity and cancers35. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Looking at screens of iPads increase chances of sleepless ness.B. Scientists are warning that blue light is bad for our health.C. People should limit the use of electronic devicesD. Using iPads before bed can cause a poor night’s sleep.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
