Going to college is a new experience full of excitement of the unknown．Socialization is a big thing for college students and it is common to feel a little uncomfortable going into a situationwhere everyone is a stranger．You may probably miss your friends from high school．1 College is a great opportunity to make new lifelong friends．The question is: how ?▲ Get to know your roommate．You may find you have lots of things in common with your roommate, but even if you are completely different from each other, with a little effort and understanding the two of you may become best friends．▲ 2If you leave your door open, this shows that you welcome visitors．As a result people will naturally stop in and say hello．Closed doors are not likely to bring many visitors and those who stay locked up in their rooms may give others the impression of being cold．Other students will be less likely to stop in and build a new friendship．▲Join clubs or organizations．Getting involved in organized socialization is a great way to meet new people．3 By staying active in college groups such as clubs and organizations you can meet lots of people with whom you share common interests．▲Talk to classmates．4 Starting conversations in class is a great opportunity to meet people who are interested in the same kind of studies as you are．Short friendly discussions can build lifelong friendships．▲Try out for a sport．If you're athletic, trying out for a sport will do for you the same thing that joining a club will do． 5A．Close the door to keep away from theft．B．Hang a welcome sign on your dorm room．C．It also helps you get more familiar with the campus．D．Your roommate is the first person you will have close contact with．E．You will instantly meet a large group of people who share your interests in sports．F．Get to know your classmates as you'll be spending several months with them．G．Trying actively to find new friends can help ease the feelings of being lonely．3. Hospital emergency rooms treat injured fingers all the time．Without treatment, a bad cut can lead to permanent damage．But how should a person know when a bleeding cut is serious enough to require medical attention?Here are some tips from Dr．Martin Brown, chairman of the department of emergency at Inova Alexandria Hospital in Virginia．1．Laceration （裂口）The medical term for a cut or tear in the skin is a laceration．【小题1】 A long cut on a finger can likely be treated without a visit to a doctor if the wound is not very deep．However, if you have a short but deep laceration, you will need professional attention,2．Fingertips cut offSome injuries, like a fingertip that gets cut off, might even need surgery （外科手术）to repair．【小题2】More often, cutting down the bone is what is done because reattaching a fingertip is often not successful．3．Bleeding【小题3】Small cuts usually produce what is known as venous （静脉的）bleeding．Thismeans the blood flows steadily from the injury．The bleeding will often stop when pressure is put on the wound．In most cases holding direct pressure with a clean cloth for four to five minutes would do. But if a cut appears to be pumping blood out with some force, this may be a sign of arterial （动脉的）bleeding．__【小题4】_Finally, always keep this in mind: even a cut that does not require medical attention must be kept clean to prevent infection．Small cuts should be cleaned gently with clean water．_【小题5】Then cover it with a clean, dry bandage．A．How a wound bleeds can be a sign of how serious it is．B．That requires a specialist to either cut down the bone or reattach the fingertip．C．This kind of injury should be treated by a medical professional as soon as possibleD．The first signs of this disease include difficulty opening the mouth．E．Use a washcloth to clean the area if the wound is dirty．F．With a cut finger, holding the hand above the heart can reduce the loss of blood．G The length is usually not as important as the depth．4. What should you think about in trying to find your career（职业）? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. 1 A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. 2 So it is important to do well at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. 3 Knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.4 If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. 5 Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.A．He may do well in his future work.B．It is better to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist.C．Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. D．These may show strengths（优势）that you can use in your work.E. Your school must have taught you the skills.F. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work.G. If you have had a part-time job on Saturday or in the summer, think what you gained from it.第II卷（非选择题）二、单项填空5.

Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter，rude boss，or an insensitive employee 1 your day?One day I was in a taxi and we headed 2 the airport. We were driving in the 3 lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his 4 ，slide sideways，and at the very last moment our car stopped and 5 the other car by just inches！The driver of the other car looked around and started 6 at us.My taxi driver just 7 and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really 8 . So I asked，"Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！‖ This is when my taxi driver taugh t me what I now call ―The Law of the Garbage Truck‖. He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of 9 , full of frustration，full of anger，and full of disappointment. As their garbage 10 up，they need a place to dump it and sometimes they‘ll dump it on 11 ．Don‘t take it personally. Just smile, wave，wish them well，and move on.Believe me. You‘ll be 12 ．Don‘t take their garbage and 13 it to other people at work，at home，or on the streets.

The Ministry of Education has spared no efforts to bring on IT learning. What is its main aim? Is it to teach students how to learn the computer or is it meant to change the usual method of teaching in order to 1 students‘ strong interest in comp uters?Teaching students computer knowledge and skills is different 2 giving class lessons through the use of computers. And schools are beginning to pay much attention to using computers to teach students. There is 3 about the fact that IT learning plays an important role as a new teaching tool in this day of technology. 4 , views differ on whether the schools can achieve their targets, as success 5 whether they can make use of computers effectively.Let‘s take the subject of Chinese as an example and see 6 difficulties the experts face in their IT management. At present,20 percent of lessons are given with the help of computers. Inother words, in a period of 10 weeks, a Chinese-language teacher must spend two weeks to teach the subject 7 .In carrying out such a major policy as IT learning, the experts should know the 8 that different teachers teaching different subjects have different demands, thus making it 9 to see the policy through.Some teachers, having already got some computer knowledge, will still be forced to 10 the training courses with those who have zero knowledge about computer.Another problem is that new teachers may be sent to work in schools 11 IT learning has just started. All teachers—including the seniors who are very 12 in teaching, but who suddenly have no idea what to do when it comes to computers will have to 13 from the very beginning. They will become 14 and their teaching performances may be badly affected. The experts have found out how much of each subject is taught by computers in every school, and have 15 all schools to complete the given work. A hard-pressed teacher may put the daily teaching 16 or the courses onto the computer just to order the required time for IT learning and then 17 the usual way. Furthermore, he may leave school work to his 18 through the computer before class comes to an end in order to ―complete‖ his IT learning19 . 20 the teaching of the Chinese language is concerned, do computer lessons really achieve the desire goals to raise the students‘ level of Chinese, pass on common values and so on? I am not so sure.1.A.show B.be C.match D.have2.A.with B.to C.in D.from3.A.no reason B.no doubt C.no need D.no time4.A.However B.Therefore C.And D.So5.A.depends on B.leads to C.results in D.believes in6.A.that B.such C.what D.how7.A.the usual way B.the regular wayC.the best wayD.the new way8.A.fact B.message C.news D.truth9.A.easy B.helpful C.hard D.fast10.A.sit for B.run for C.give D.attend11.A.for which B.that C.where D.which12.A.interested B.satisfied C.successful D.experienced13.A.work B.start C.teach D.manage14.A.pleased B.disappointed C.certain fortable15.A.ordered B.improved C.encouraged D.instructed16.A.methods B.skills C.programs D.performances17.A.make a living B.give lessonsC.go to lecturesD.does work18.A.work-mates B.headmastersC.instructorsD.students19.A.skills B.experiences C.duties D.methods20.A.As B.So long as C.Even though D.As far as19. ―Just sign here, sir,‖ the deliveryman said as he handed Oscar Reyna a package.The package consisted of a long , narrow box ___1____ wrapped in brown paper. __2___ the box, Oscar saw an umbrella inside—— a very old one with a beautifully carved handle. ____3___He had not seen it in more than 20 years, he recognized it ____4____.Oscar was 16 when he first saw the ___5____ umbrella.

I had a very special teacher many years ago whose husband died suddenly of a heart attack. About a week after his 41 , she shared her insights(顿悟) with the students. When the class wasnearly over, she 42 and said, ―I would like to 43 with all of you a thought that has 44 to do with class, but which I feel is very _45 .―Each of us is put here on the _46 to learn, share, love and appreciate ourselves. None of us knows when this _47 will end. At any moment it can be _48 . Perhaps this is life‘s way of telling us that we must make good _49 of every day.‖ Her eyes beginning to _50 ,she went on saying, ―So I would like you all to 51 me. From now on, on your way home, find something _52 to notice. It doesn‘t have to be something you see——it could be scent(香味) of fresh bread, or it could be the 53 of the wind slightly rustling(发出沙沙声) the leaves.‖―Please look for these things, and 54 them. The little things are put here on the earth for us to enjoy. They are _55 observing, for at any time they can all be taken away.‖The class was totally quiet. We all picked up our books and went out of the room_56 . That afternoon, on my way home I noticed_57 things than before. Every time I think of that teacher and remember what a(n) 58 she made on all of us, I try to 59 all of those things that sometimes we all ignore. For as we get older, it is not the things we did that we often regret, 60 the things we五、阅读理解21. The house itself had been sold that morning. Now it was the turn of the contents. The crowd ofdealers, collectors, bargain-hunters and plain sale-goers walked about examining this and that and generally having a last look round before the excitement of the sale. Every piece was numbered and listed, and everyone had a copy of the list. The sale was to take place in the largest room, the sitting room, which had been prepared. A few people were already waiting there.The room was half full of chairs. These carried the highest numbers, so that they could be put to ordinary use till near the end. In front of the fireplace stood the salesman's desk, a box-like piece of furniture with four steps. At work, the salesman stood a meter above everyone. He was trained to notice the slightest movement of a hand, an eye, or even an eyebrow, any of which might signal a bid. Beside the desk were a table and two chairs for the clerk and the cashier. Many of the sale goods were already here, some from the bedrooms looking out of place.Almost in the middle stood a big kitchen table covered by a blanket. The salesman came in and climbed on to his stand. His assistants followed him in and took their places.―Ladies and gentlemen, ‖the salesman said, ―I have been informed to tell you that everything must be sold this afternoon. No price is too low or too high for anything, but a price I must have for everything. We are now ready to begin, and we do so with Lot Number One …‖At this point two strong-looking men lifted on to the central table a large wooden chest. It seemed too big for a modern house.―Lot Number One is an oak chest. Now what am I bid for this fine old chest? Do I hear ￡20? No? ￡10 then. Do I hear ￡10? Come along, ladies and gentlemen, this chest is solid oak. The wood alone is worth ￡40, so make me an offer for Lot Number One, just to get us started. ‖His eyes swung round the room.―One pound, ‖a woman's voice called.―One pound I'm bid, ‖said the salesman eagerly, ―for this splendid chest. Any advance on ￡1 now? One pound I'm bid. Do I hear two? No? Going at one pound then. No advance on ￡1? Going at ￡1. One pound. ‖He brought his wooden hammer down sharply on to his desk.

The pieces sold last were ________.A. the chairsB. those at the highest pricesC. the biggest thingsD. those with the lowest numbers2. What use was made of the kitchen table?A.

Because she is a collector of old oak chests.22. Not all bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean, an S-shaped body of water covering 33 million square miles. The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization. Unlike real inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlanticis rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.―Storm at Sea‖, a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of mankind‘s earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.When the wind is from the westAll the waves that cannot restTo the east must thunder onWhere the bright tree of the sunIs rooted in the ocean‘s breast.As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is an ocean that moves, impressively and endlessly. It makes all kinds of noise—it is forever thundering, boiling, crashing, and whistling.It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath—perhaps not so noticeably out in mid-ocean, but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach. It mimics(模仿) nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature. It is filled with symbiotic (共生的) existences, too: unimaginable quantities of creatures, little and large alike, mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean vitality. And it has a psychology. It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.1. Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is______.A. always energeticB. lacking in livelinessC. shaped like a squareD. favored by ancient poets2. What is the purpose of using the poem ―Storm at Sea‖ in the passage?A. To describe the movement of the waves.B. To show the strength of the storm.C. To represent the vitality of the ocean.D. To prove the vastness of the sea.3. In the last paragraph, the Atlantic is compared to______.A. a beautiful and poetic placeB. a flesh and blood personC. a wonderful worldD. a lovely animal23. Only three local students won Chinese Blog(博客) Competition. And 15 of the 18 awards went to students from China.170 students‘ task: to get a fully designed blog up and running, complete with many postings based on a theme of choice — all written in Chinese.Themes ranged from local opinions —such as the usage of Singlish, education and whether Singapore can be a cultural centre — to food blogs.The entries were judged on language proficiency(熟练程度) and the quality of writing, as well as the design and level of exchanging ideas with readers.Academics from the National University of Singapore and the SIM University, IT experts, and a journalist from Chinese newspaper Lianhe Zaobao in Singapore made up the judges.In the end, only three Singaporean students made it to the award list — the rest of the awards were swept up by students from China.―No surprise, ‖said Mr. Chow Yaw Long, 37, teacherin charge from Innova Junior College, which organized the event. ―Although the topics were local subjects, the foreign students weregenerally better in terms of the content of the posts and their grasp of the Chinese language.‖One of the three local students winning the first prize in the Best Language Award was blogger Christina Gao, 19, from the Saint Andrew‘s Junior College, who spared no effort in researching for and writing her blog. Each entry took her between five and seven days to produce, complete with pictures and even podcasts (播客)．Her advice for bloggers is: Be responsible.―Some bloggers out there only seek to blame the authorities and other bloggers，‖ said Miss Gao. ―I think they lack responsibilities and there is no value to their posts.‖1．The competition was organized by ________.A. the National University of SingaporeB.

Kincaid looked at his watch: eight-seventeen. The truck started on the second try, and he backed out, shifted gears, and moved slowly down the alley under hazy sun. Through the streets of Bellingham he went, heading south on Washington 11, running along the coast of Puget Sound for a few miles, then following the highway as it swung east a little before meeting U.S Route 20. Turning into the sun, he began the long, winding drive through the Cascades. He liked this country and felt impressed，stopping now and then to make notes about interesting possibilities for future expeditions or to shoot what he called ―memory snapshots.‖ The purpose of these causal photographs was to remind him of places he might want to visit again and approach more seriously. In later afternoon he turned north at Spokane, picking up U.S Route 2, which would take him halfway across the northern United States to Duluth, Minnesota.He wished for the thousandth time in his life that he had a dog, a golden retriever, maybe, for travels like this and to keep him company at home. But he was frequently away; overseas much of the time and it would not be fair to the animal. Still, he thought about it anyway. In a few years he would be getting too old for the hard fieldwork. ―I must get a dog then.‖ He said to himself. Drives like this always put him into a sentimental mood. The dog was part of it. Robert Kincaid was alone as it‘s possible to be – an only child, parents both dead, distant relatives who had lost track of him and he of them, no close friends.He thought about Marian. She had left him nine years ago after five years of marriage. He was fifty–two now, that would make her just under forty. Marian had dreams of becoming a musician, a folksinger. She knew all of the Weavers‘ songs and sang them pretty well in the coffeehouse of。
