The next building was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman living there, and I had _31_ met her, yet I could see her sic by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.Several months later, I began to notice that her window was dirty._32_ was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself .“I _33_ why that woman doesn’t wipe her window. It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I decided to _34_ my flat, including wiping the windows on the inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the work, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a (an)_35_! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was _36_ visible. Her window was clean.Then it dawned (明白)on me. I have been criticizing (批评)her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How _37_ had I looked at and criticized _38_ through my own shortcomings?Since then, whenever I want to _39_ someone, I try to clean the window of my own in order that I may see the _40_ about me more clearly.31.

But his boss told him not to think more about the idea. Drew didn’t stop and, using his own time, finally made a kind of tape, which was used by many people later. And his company learned from its _43_, Now the company asks its workers to _44_15% of their work time just thinking about and developing new ideas.Creativity is not something one is just born with. Creativity is the matter of _45_ your intelligence to think of new ideas that are good for something.We know that many schools have tried to develop students’ creativity, _46_ some teachers only want to develop st udents’ reading, writing and math skills, and have to give up creativity for correct answers. Children from such schools can give correct answers, but they are unable to use them to work out problems.It is important _47_ children choices. From the earliest age, children should learn to make decisions and understand their _48_. As children grow older, parents should let their children decide _49_ to use their time or spend their money, but not help them too much if they makethe wrong decision.

They say more Americans need to take a nap—that is to rest for a short period in the middle of the day. They give people advice to sleep lightly before continuing with other activities. The experts say naps might improve health by reducing pressure.Some European and Latin American companies have supported the idea of napping for many years. They ask people to leave work, go home and have a nap before returning. In the United States, some companies let workers rest simply in their offices. They believe this can help workers make fewer mistakes and also increase the amount of work that a person can do.Sleep experts say it is likely that people make more mistakes at work than at other time. They suggest that people should not carry out important tasks when they feel sleepy. And they believe the best thing to do is to take a nap. About 20 minutes of rest is all you need. Experts say this provides extra energy and can increase your efficiency until the end of the day. Bat they point out that a nap should last no more than 20 to 30 minutes. A longer nap will put the body into deep sleep and waking up will be difficult.56.

The advantages of deep sleep during weekends.C. The disadvantages of deep sleep during weekends.D.

Since I was young, Ihave learned a lot about the country and become interested in it. For a long time I had wanted to do something for the country and people there, and I thought volunteering (做志愿者)would be a good and fun way to do so.I received the greatest pleasure from being with the children.Teaching my first English class in Aeeh was exciting but I was rather nervous. As time passed by, I learned how to be a better teacher. Teaching was actually the most enjoyable of my many responsibilities (责任).Many children were shy at first. But when they relaxed, they would start talking and telling you a lot of funny things. I believed we were helping them build up their confidence.For the children who are more in need, the Education Program (TEP) will collect donations (募捐)to help them.As a volunteer, I had to visit TEP children at home once a month and help them write a thank-you letter to their sponsors. This was a way for the children to communicate with their sponsors. Sometimes the sponsors would write back to the children. Seeing the children's happy faces, I had a great sense of pleasure.61.

He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him putthem out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought, because it’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he hasbecome a bridge that foreigners muse cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades, the Chinese Study Programs have gained large popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy ( 哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdomto make up for the drawbacks (缺陷) of Western philosophy. Students in the United States, atthe same time, are racing to learn Chinese. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and more teachers are needed to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.66. When is Confucius’ birthday?It is on________________________________________.67. Why will few people in America give Confucius a passing thought on his birthday?

As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful real ity is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The Last willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper---and healthier--- our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that _____.A. the author complains about her parents’ being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. People divorced mainly beca use they didn’t love each otherD. Some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too muchB. Because it is quite difficult to understand the othersC. Because we believe we are always rightD. Because the others have done something wrong63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimate relationshipsB. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concernedC. Understanding is more important than love to some degreeD. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship64. If we are to understand our partners, we should firstly ____?A. Have willing to do soB. Have love for themC. Get into connection with themD. Care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaningto_____.A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage TwoFinally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning...is exhaustive and time-consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving, In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “always wanted” gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift packaged so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66.

These could include delivering a bite-proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or walking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “people in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relative normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s ,but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship. People light up when they see an imals. They don’t need to communicate verbally but they can still interact. You can have a speechless bond.The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.71. As is mentioned in the passage, the guide dogs will do the following except for_______.A. helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB. reminding the owner to take medicineC. Communicating with the owner in a non-verbal wayD. Helping the owner recover from the illness72. Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A. The students who developed the idea.B. The owners of the dogs.C. The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.73. What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A. They would like to say with other people.B. They can maintain routine.C. They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life.D. They would like to talk in a different way.74. The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will _______.A. respond to the owners orderB. respond to a sound deviceC. act on the owners instructionsD. act on the trainers order75. Having a conversation with people with dementia will be _______.A. difficultB. interestingC. confusingD. encouragingPassage FourIt seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group the Crimea did earlier this year. The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people the can make more money than they would from sales of a CD. There will always be some [people who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too-- but making money throu gh sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in the music business in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally --to computer, phones and MP3 players rose to $2 billion in 2006 -- an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year -- yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buy CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers the\y used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big question for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music on mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases -- they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK Mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24-year-olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as they heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product that you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for record companies, however, is the mount of music that is downloaded illegally. Piracy --- usually in the form of cheaply copied CD ---has long been an issue for the music business but the internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76. What is unusual about the Crimea’s business plan?A. Their business was given away free on the Internet.B. They give CDs away free in shops.C. They played free concerts.D. They charged more for their CDs.77. The Crimea hope to make money _______.A. through CD salesB. by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC. by selling merchandise on the internetD. though sales of merchandise in shops78. The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because _______.A. People who attend their concerts need themB. they want to make extra moneyC. there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD. People who fail to attend their concerts need them79. What is true about sales of music over the last year?A. overall, sales are up on last year.B. .overall, sales are down on last year.C. there is no change compared to previous sales.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.80. What effect has the internet had on music piracy?A. It has made it easier to fight piracy.B. It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C. It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D. It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.参考答案:71-75 DCCBC 76-80 ABCBC第五部分81. 她喜欢看书时听音乐。

As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful r eality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The Last willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper---andhealthier--- our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that _____.A. the author compla ins about her parents’ being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. People divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. Some peo ple divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too muchB. Because it is quite difficult to understand the othersC. Because we believe we are always rightD. Because the others have done something wrong63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimate relationshipsB. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concernedC. Understanding is more important than love to some degreeD. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship64. If we are to understand our partners, we should firstly____?A. Have willing to do soB. Have love for themC. Get into connection with themD. Care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to_____.A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage TwoFinally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning...is exhaustive and time-consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving, In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift giversalways wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “always wanted” gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for daysbefore you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift packaged so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)_____.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. must-be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ____for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC. abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America inthat____A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to open to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giverB. Wrap the gift carefullyC. Express the appreciation for the gift you receiveD. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping70. The author’s attitude towards gift givi ng is_____.A.

Denmark voted no in 2000.British Labor party member Chris Bryant, who is chairman of the Labor Movement for Europe, says that more than half of Britain’s trade is with Europe, and he hopes Britain will be joining the euro as soon as possible. British Prime Minister Tony Blair had said previously his government is committed in principle to joining the euro, provided that economic conditions are right.In Sweden, meanwhile, euro opponents have hailed the defeat of the single currency. The leader of the Left Party, Ulla Hoffman said the people have made it clear democracy comes from the bottom, not from above .The Left Party, along with the environmentalist Greens, fought against the euro. But Prime Minister Goran Persson, who led the movement for the euro, said Sweden would have worse opportunities without the common currency in the long term.Euro supporters say that it would have improved trade with the 12-nation zone that uses the euro, and that a no vote would leave Sweden without a voice in EU economic decisions Critics said the euro would mean higher prices and less money for Sweden’s cradle-to-grave welfare system.36.Among the following persons, who is a euro opponent according to the passage?A.

Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages, are not very successful. Couples go through physically and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.We should be able to clone the bone marrow for children and adults suffering from leukemia(白血病).This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technology.We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer. Cloning technology can be used to test and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for mankind. This new technology promises unprecedented advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefits begin.41.Heart attacks can be treated with human cloning technology by ______.A. removing the each other for longB. repairing the heart with cells cloned from healthy onesC. replacing the old heart with a cloned oneD. giving the patients injections of various medicines42.The word “infertile”, in paragraph 2,most probably means______.A. separated from each other for longB. with physical and emotional problemsC. short of time and moneyD. unable to give birth to a child43.According to the passage, one of the first expected benefits from cloning technology may be in _____.A. the cure of blood diseasesB. the bearing of babiesC. the treatment of heart attacksD. the treatment of cancer44.Cancer may be cured with the cloning technology by _____.A. attacking the diseased cells with healthy onesB. detecting disordered genes in the cancer cellsC. controlling the growth of the cellsD. activating cancer cells by switching them on45.According to the writer, the main problem with the development of human cloning technology is that_____.A. people are afraid of such technologyB. it has brought about few benefits so farC. people still know little about itD. its benefits are very limitedPassage FourYour boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with. Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course, not all bosses are like that.The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder. Your boss is not only your leader, he is also the person best equipped to help you do the job you are paid to do. He can inform you of company direction that may affect your professional development.Your boss also needs you to perform at your best in order to accomplish his objectives. He needs your feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But how does this help you establish a meaningful working relationship with your boss?The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals priorities. Observe and understand your boss’s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations, ask! Likewise, ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully.

When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead.16. Satellites travel ____.A.in spaceB. above spaceC. above the groundD.in the atmosphere17. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because ____.A. clouds form thereB. the pictures are a great helpC. the weather satellites can do it easilyD. the weather forms there18. Meteorologists forecast the weather ____.A. without studying satellite picturesB. before they received satellite picturesC. when they have received satellite picturesD. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier ones19. In the near future maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for ____.A.one dayB. two daysC. five daysD. seven days or even longer20. The main idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in ____.A. taking pictures of the earthB. receiving pictures of the atmosphereC. weather forecastingD. doing other work in many waysPassage 2We bet that on cold wintry days, many of you love to stay in your warm home and, every now and then, come out into the kitchen for a snack. Unfortunately, plenty of creepy-crawly critters (爬行生物) like to do the same thing!Winter is the time when bugs (虫子) invade your house without an invitation. The season can be tough for such creatures. In winter the air is cold, the ground is hard and many trees have no leaves. So bugs do what they have to do to survive.Monarch butterflies head south to warmer climates. Ants crowd in deep underground colonies and eat food they have been storing all year. Many insects go into a deep sleep called diapauses. There’re different kinds of diapauses, but all are similar to hibernation, a time when bigger animals become inactive in the cold. Insects go into an inactive period, too, but it often isn’t when the temperature drops.They rely on more dependable signals in the environment. For example, many insects can tell how much sunlight there’s each day. They use that to tell themselves when to shut down. Bugs are cold-blooded, meaning that their inside temperature is the same as the outside. They can’t move much when it gets below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. So they search for any warm place.They’re looking for protection. These guys have been doing this for 300 million years, so they don’t really know they’re coming into your house. The home is a recent event in terms of their evolutionary behavior. They enter through tiny cracks or come in unnoticed on your clothes or shoes. Remember that they may be invading your homes for warmth and food, but they don’t care about humans.21. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A. To point out that humans like to stay at home in winter.B. To tell readers that humans and bugs have the same living habits.C. To mean that bugs will invade humans’ houses for their winter.D. To put forward the idea that bugs are not welcome in winter.22. The diapause of insects is____ .A. not the same as the animals’ hibernation.B. appearing in warm areas all the year.C. done to keep bugs active in winter.D. a deep sleep similar to hibernation.23. What decides bugs’ diapauses?A. Various environmental signals.B. The amount of sunlight.C. The lower local temperature.D. The insects’ inside temperature.24. Bugs invade humans’ homes to ____.A. attack humansB. look for enough foodC. seek for protectionD. show their evolutionary results25. What would be the best title for the text?A. Bugs’ Life on Wintry Day sB. Reasons for Bugs’ Invasion in winterC. Good Relations between Humans and BugsD. The Definition of DiapausePassage 3One of the most influential methods in American education currently is the ITIP method(Instructional Theory into Practice).The re’re seven steps.1. Anticipatory(前期) Set. The teacher raises the interest of the class by starting with an idea that gets their attention. The idea is to have students become focused on the importance of the lesson.2. Objective and Purpose. The students are told the reason for the lesson. It might be related to what was learned yesterday. The students are allowed to know why they’re learning certain information so their natural curiosity can be satisfied.3. Input. Once the purpose is clear, the teacher puts new knowledge before the students. This might be taught in a variety of ways, including the use of lectures, demonstrations, recordings, or computers.4. Modeling. The teacher then demonstrates some aspects of the new information. As the students watch the teacher solve a problem or complete an experiment, they learn by watching their teacher model how to use the information successfully.5. Checking for Understanding. As the teacher presents the model, they will ask students to answer questions. It’s the teacher’s major duty to make sure that the students are not confused by the lesson. Sometimes, a discussion is used to make sure the students’ understanding.6. Guided Practice. Students are often asked to solve some problems.7. Independent Practice. This means homework. Students are sent home to work alone. If they have been taught well, they will know exactly what to do.26. “Anticipatory Set” is listed first because it helps the students to be____.A. well-settled in their seatsB. prepared to take notesC. very activeD. interested in the lesson27. At“____ ”stage new information is given to the students.A. Objective and PurposeB. InputC. ModelingD. Guided Practice28. The teacher asks students questions or organizes a discussion in order to____.A. Check for understandingB. show teaching purposeC. make practiceD. demonstrate new information29. If a student wants to grasp the new information well, the first thing he may do is to ____.A. watch the teacher modelB.do a lot of homeworkC. develop their interestsD. ask some questions30. Independent practice requires students to complete their homework____.A.in groupsB. with their classmatesC.by themselvesD. with their parentsPassage 4Generations of American have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is essential to one’s life. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have been told and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people, the thought of food as the first thing in the morning is never a pleasure. So in spite of all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures could be obtained, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast increased by 33%---from 8.8 million to 11.7 million---according to the Chicago-basedMarket Research Corporation of America .For those who dislike eating breakfast ,however ,there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years have shown that ,for grown-ups especially ,there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast,” Going without breakfast does not affect work,” said Arnold E. Bender, former profe ssor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London ,“nor does giving people breakfast improve work.” Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better work is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not grown-ups.” The literature,” says one research, Dr Earnest Polite at the University of Texas,” is poor.”31. The main idea of the passage is ____.A. breakfast has nothing to do with people’s healthB. a good breakfast used to be important to usC. breakfast is not as important to us as gasoline to a carD. breakfast is not as important as we thought before32. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that ____.A. several studies have been done in the past few yearsB. the omission s of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthC. grown-ups have especially made studies in this fieldD. eating little in the morning is good for health33. The underlined part “nor does giving people breakfast improve work” means ____.A. people without breakfast can improve their workB. not giving people breakfast improves workC. having breakfast does not improve their work, eitherD. people having breakfast do improve their work, too34. The word“literature” in the last sentence refers to ____.A. written works on a particular subjectB. stories, poems, play, etC.C. any printed materialD. the modern literature of America35. What is implied but not stated by the author is that ____.A. breakfast does not affect workB. Dr Polite works at an institution of higher learningC. not eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenD. Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London三、完形填空(共15分,每小题1分)I’m just beginning to face up to the fact that I’m no longer as young as I used to be.

Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分) Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.People and the sources of air pollution are found in the same places. This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes (烟尘) from cars. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage leads to air pollution. Many major industries are also the cause of the dirty air in and around cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles (粉尘) to the air.The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear sight. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants. In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the lives of human beings by leading to lung diseases and causing early death.1. From the passage, we know that ▲ .A. air pollution is caused by electricityB. the cause of air pollution is not peopleC. air pollution is caused by many different sourcesD. headaches and death are not related to air pollution2.

Loss of clear sightD. Serious headachePassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.Everyone has got two personalities —the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control your behavior, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you frequently change their positions. The important position is the one that you go to sleep.If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don't like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive (深藏不露的) person. You worry a lot and you're always easily upset. You are very stubborn (顽固的), but you aren’t very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself, so you are very defensive. You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You’re easily hurt.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. Youknow your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don't often get depress. You always say what you think, even if it annoys people.6.

What is the best title of the passage?A. Sleeping Position and PersonalityB. Feelings and PersonalityC. Types and PersonalitiesD. Types of Sleeping PositionsPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Steve and Yaser first met in their chemistry class at an American university. Yaser was an international student from Jordan. He wanted to learn more about American culture. Yaser hoped that he and Steve would become good friends.At first, Steve seemed very friendly. He always greeted Yaser warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Yaser. He even invited Yaser to eat lunchwith him. But after the semester was over, Steve seemed more distant. The two former classmates didn't see each other very much at school. One day Yaser was hurt by Steve's change of attitude; he thought they were friends forever."Yaser is a little confused. He is an outsider to American culture. He doesn't understand the way Americans view friendship. Americans use the word “friend”in a very general way. They may call both casual acquaintances (相识的人) and close companions "friends". Americans have school friends, work friends, sports friends and neighborhood friends. These friendships are based on common interests. When the shared activity ends, the friendship may fade.In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long bond (关系) between two people. In these cultures friendships develop slowly, since they are built to last. American society is one of rapid change. Studies show that one out of five American families moves frequently. Americans develop friendship quickly, and they may change just as quickly.People from the United States may at first seem friendly. Americans often chat easily with strangers. They exchange information about their families, hobbies and work. They may smile warmly and say, "Have a nice day" or "See you later." Schoolmates may say, "Let's get together sometime." But American friendliness is not always an offer of true friendship.11. Where did Steve and Yaser first meet?A. In their history class.B. In their English class.C. In their chemistry class.D. In their Chinese class.12. What is the style of American friendship?A. Americans value strong life-long friendships.B. American friendship is not a life-long one.C. Americans develop friendship slowly.D. Americans do not make friends with strange people.13. The word “fade”(Para. 3) probably means “▲”.A. disappear graduallyB. increase sharplyC. become clearD. last forever14. In the eyes of Americans, Steve and Yaser are ▲ .A. neighborhood friendsB. classmates for everC. sports friendsD. school friends15. “Let’s get together sometime”(Para. 5) is a way to ▲ .A. be just friendlyB. learn from each otherC. care about each otherD. be unfriendlyPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Newspapers, along with reporting the news, educate, entertain, and give opinions. An important way for reading a large, big-city newspaper is knowing how to take it apart. Can you find these separate sections: world news, national and local news, sports, business, entertainment, opinions, classified advertisements? Does your paper have other sections?News stories give facts, not the author's opinions. Editorials (社论) do the opposite, you can expect an editorial to take sides. Some newspaper editorials have a by-line with the author's name, but many newspapers have unsigned (未署名的) editorials. These reflect the opinions of the publisher or editor.You can be a better reader if you know what to expect in a newspaper. For example, you can expect headlines to omit unnecessary words. You can expect to find the most important facts in the first paragraph of a news story. You can expect important news items to be on the front page. You can expect less important items to be on the inside pages.Most of all, the more you know about the current news, the more you will understand what is in the newspaper; important stories are generally presented one day and followed up on following days. So, an important way for reading newspapers is reading one frequently.16. When reading a large newspaper, one should ▲ .A. read it from cover to coverB. do some paper-cuttingC. find separate sectionsD. predict what is inside the paper17. Which of the following statements about news stories is TRUE?A. News stories tell the facts without comments.B. News stories contain both facts and opinions.C. News stories reflect the opinions of the publisher and editor.18. If you expect the most import facts of a news story, you can go to ▲ .A. the first paragraphB. news items on each pageC. the author’s opinions on the front pageD. the headlines on the inside pages19. The best way to read newspapers is to read ▲ .A. extensively and thoroughlyB. occasionally and carefullyC. frequently and with certain skillsD. in details every day20. The main idea of the passage is ▲ .A. how to read newspapersB. how to read stories and editorialsC. how to find important news storiesD. how to find the author’s opinionsPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分) Directions:There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

Part I Reading Comprehension (60 marks, 60 minutes)Section A (每小题2分)Format ⅠDirections:There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.(40 marks)Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Have you ever wondered where the first doughnut(炸面圈) was made? Who thought up the idea of a fried cake with a hole in the center?No one knows for sure who made the first doughnut. Some people think that doughnuts probably began in the 1800s as Dutch “olykoeks” or “oily cakes.” In those days, a cook would not want to waste any scraps of food. Leftover pieces of bread dough(生面团) were put into hot oil and fried. Olykoeks were tasty on the outside, but soft and uncooked in the center.Some people say that the mother of a New England sea captain invented the first real doughnut. Her name was Elizabeth Gregory. She replaced the soft center with spices and nuts. But,英语试题第1页共14页Elizabe th’s son, Captain Gregory, did not like nuts. He punched out the center, and the consequence was the first hole in a doughnut.Others say the real story is that Captain Gregory had difficulty steering his ship while trying to eat doughnuts. He asked the s hip’s cook to make his doughnuts with holes so he could hang them on the steering wheel! Others think that Captain Gregory saw holed cakes in Europe and brought the idea back to America with him.During World War I, homesick American soldiers in Europe were served doughnuts by the Salvation Army. These brave women volunteering for the job were called “Doughnut Girls.” They often worked in dangerous conditions near the soldiers, so the Doughnut Girls wore helmets and uniforms. The women made doughnut cutters out of a large can with a smaller can inside it to cut out the hole. They could set up a kettle of hot oil to fry the dough almost anywhere.In the 1920s, doughnut machines were invented. Doughnuts were produced faster and easier than ever before. Still, many people preferred to make their favorite doughnuts at home.1. The passage is mainly about ______.A. the popularity of doughnutsB. the history of doughnutsC. the inventors of doughnutsD. the types of doughnuts2.

Passage Two英语试题第2页共14页Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:It is a blow for the Ugly Bettys and Plain Janes — research shows that good looks lead to better pay. A study of 4,000 young men and women found that beauty boosted pay checks more than intelligence. Those judged to be the most attractive earned up to 10 percent more than their less attractive friends and colleagues. Applied to the average salary of £25,000 a year, the “plainness penalty (处罚)” would make a difference of £2,500 a year —or around £50 a week.It is unclear what is behind the phenomenon but it may be that beauty creates confidence. The self-confident may appear to be doing better than they are and will not hesitate about asking for a pay rise.Researcher Jason Fletcher, of Yale University in the U.S., rated the attractiveness of the 4,000 men and women. Just over half were judged average, while 7 percent were felt to be very attractive and 8 percent were judged unattractive or very unattractive. The volunteers also sat an IQ test and reported their salary. It became clear that pay scales were far from fair. For instance, a 14-point increase on the IQ score was associated with a 3 to 6 percent increase in wage. But being of above-average looks increased pay by 5 to 10 percent.For a plain person to be paid the same as a very attractive one, they would have to be 40 percent brighter, the journal Economics Letters reports.Dr Fletcher said: “The results do show that people’s looks have an impact on their wages and it can be very important.”6. What is the “plainness penalty”?A. To be paid less for being ordinarily-looking.B. To be laughed at for being ordinarily-looking.C. To be fired for being ordinarily-looking.D. To be questioned for being ordinarily-looking.7. What’s the average annual salary of a good-looking person?A. £2,500.B. £25,000.C. £22,500.D. £27,500.8. Good-looking people are paid more probably because ______.英语试题第3页共14页A. they look smarterB. they have higher degreesC. they are better at pleasing othersD. they are more confident9. How many people were rated as very attractive in Jason Fletcher’s study?A. About 280B. About 4,000C. About 2,000D. About 32010. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage?A. IQ is less important than appearance.B. Confidence makes people prettier.C. Good looks earn an extra penny.D. How Plain Janes get a higher salary.Passage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Were you constantly bored as a child? Maybe that helped you to develop your ability to be creative.Boredom can be a good thing for children, according to Dr Teresa Belton, researcher at the University of East Anglia’s School of Education and Lifelong Learning. After interviewing authors, artists and scientists in Britain, she’s reached the conclusion that cultural expectations that children should be constantly active could block the development of their imagination.British actress and writer Meera Syal grew up in a small mining village with few distractions. The researcher said: “Lack of things to do urged her to talk to people she wouldn’t otherwise have engaged with and try activities she wouldn’t, under other circumstances, have experienced, such as talking to elderly neighbors and learning to bake cakes.”Belton added: “Boredom made her write. Meera Syal kept a diary from a young age, filling it with observations, shor t stories, poems.”The researcher didn’t ignore the old saying the devil finds work for idle hands, though. Belton pointed out that young people who don’t have the interior resources to deal with boredom creatively may end up smashing up bus shelters or taking cars out for a joyride.How about watching TV and videos on the computer? The researcher believes that nothing replaces standing and staring at things and observing your surroundings.It’s the sort of thing that stimulates the imagination, she said, while the screen “tends to short circuit that process and the development of creative capacity”.Dr Belton concluded: “For the sake of creativity, perhaps we need to slow down and stay英语试题第4页共14页offline from time to time.”11. Dr Teresa Belton did her research by ______.A. studying cultural differencesB. interviewing professionalsC. keeping a diaryD. observing the surroundings12. Which of the following best describes the village where Meera Syal grew up?A. Modern and open.B. Tiny and unexciting.C. Poor and underdeveloped.D. Remote and violent.13. The expression “the devil finds work for idle hands” probably means that people are more likely to ______.A. do what they should not do if they meet devilsB. achieve nothing if they work with devilsC. do more work if they didn’t work hard when they were youngD. get involved in trouble if they have nothing to do with their time14. What is Dr Belton’s advice for youngsters?A. Observe the world around them.B. Get information online from time to time.C. Remain constantly active.D. Read as many books as possible.15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Deal with boredom wisely.B. Learn from a young age.C. Enjoy village life.D. Forget old sayings.Passage Four英语试题第5页共14页Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:During her junior year of high school, Candice Backus’s teacher handed her a sheet and instructed the 17-year-old to map out her future financial life. Backus pretended to buy a car, rent an apartment, and apply for a cre dit card. Then, she and her classmates played the “stock market game,” investing the hypothetical(假设的) earnings from their hypothetical jobs in the market in the fateful fall of 2008. “Our pretend investments crashed,” Backus says, still horrified. “We fel t what actual shareholders were feeling.”That pain of earning and losing money is a feeling that public schools increasingly want to teach. Forty states now offer some types of financial instruction at the elementary or high-school level, including lessons in balancing checkbooks(支票本) and buying stock in math and social-studies classes. The interest in personal-finance classes has risen since 2007 when bank failures became a regular occurrence.Rather than teach investment strategies, these courses offer a basic approach to handling money: Don’t spend what you don’t have. Put part of your monthly salary into a savings account, and invest in the stock market for the long-term rather than short-term gains. For Backus, this means dividing her earnings from her part-time job at a fast-food restaurant into separate envelopes for paying bills, spending, and saving. “Money is so hard to make but so easy to spend,” she says one weekday after school.After Backus finished her financial classes, she opened up a savings account at her local bank and started to think more about how she and her family would pay for college. “She just has a better understanding of money and how it affects the world,” says her mother, Darleen. All of this talk of money can make Backus worry, she says, but luckily, she feels prepared to face it.16. The purpose of the high school class’s “stock market game” is to ______.A. introduce a new courseB. encourage personal savingsC. learn about investmentD. teach credit card hazards17. Student interest in taking classes on finance has increased because of ______.A. the state of the economyB. the need for employmentC. the rate of graduationD. the desire to purchase cars18. According to the passage, taking money management courses will help young people to英语试题第6页共14页______.A. get accepted by collegesB. become very wealthyC. take more vacationsD. prevent from going into debt19. After Candice Backus completed the class about money, she ______.A. is debt freeB. manages the family incomeC. will graduate earlyD. feels more competent20. The author’s attitude toward financial classes in public schools is ______.A. positiveB. criticalC. objectiveD. worriedFormat ⅡDirections: In the following passage, some sentences have been removed.

二O-四年军队院校生长干部招生文化科目统一考试大专毕业生士兵专升本大学英语试题一、快速阅读(共10分,每小题1分)Using the mind to fight diseasesPsychology has a new application in the field of medicine. Many doctors, together with their patients, are looking for alternative methods of treatment of physical problems. In large hospitals and research centers, modern methods of therapy seem to focus on the physical disease without considering the patients' mental state. Patients may feel that they are being treated impersonally, like broken machines. Some doctors have recognized this as a problem. They are now using psychological therapy with patients to use their own minds to fight their diseases. Because the patient is working with the medicine and the doctors against the disease, his or her attitude changes. The patient does not wait for the medicine and treatment to cure him or her, but instead the patient joins in the fight.Mental therapyThe doctor knows that a disease affects a patient's body physically. The body of the patient (in this case, a man) changes because of the disease. He is not only physically affected, but as the physician knows, he also has an emotional response to the disease. Because his mind is affected, his attitude and behavior change. The medical treatment might cure the patient's physical problems, but the patient's mind must fight the emotional ones. For example, the studies of one doctor, Carl Simonton, M. D., have shown that a typical cancer patient (in this case, a woman) has predictable attitudes. She typically feels depressed, upset, and angry. Her self-image is poor and she feels self-pity.As a result, her behavior changes. Because of her constant depression, she acts unfriendly toward her family, friends, doctors, and nurses. Such attitudes and behaviors prevent the patient from getting well. Therefore, a doctor's treatment must help the patient change her attitudes. Simonton's method emphasizes treatment of the whole patient by treating both the body and the mind.The attitude of a cancer patient who is receiving radiation therapy, an X-ray treatment, can become more positive. The physician who is following Simonton's psychological treatment plan suggests that the patient imagine that he or she can see the tumor (瘤)in the body. In the mental picture, the patient "sees" a powerful beam of radiation like a million bullets of energy. The patient imagines the beam hitting the tumor cells and causing them to shrink.Doctors are not certain why this mental therapy works. However, this use of psychology does help some patients because their attitudes about themselves change. They become more confident because they use the power within their own minds to help stop the disease.Suggestion therapyAnother application of using the mind to help cure disease is the use of suggestion therapy. Before making the suggestion, the doctor helps the patient to concentrate deeply. The patient (in this case, a man) thinks only about one thing. He becomes so unaware of other things around him that he seems to be asleep. He is said to be in a trance (催眠状态). Then the physician makes "a suggestion" to the patient about the medical problem. The patient's mind responds to the suggestion even after the patient is no longer in the trance. In this way, the patient uses his mind to help his body respond to treatment。
Doctors have learned that this use of psychology is helpful for both adults and children. For example, physicians have used suggestion to help adults deal with the strong pain of some disease.Physicians have learned Children respond quickly to the treatment because they are fascinated by it. For example, Dr. Basil R. Collison has worked with 121 asthmatic children in Sydney, Australia, and had good results. Twenty-five of the children had excellent results. They were able to breathe more easily, and they did not need medication. Another forty-three were also helped. The symptoms of the asthma occurred less frequently, and when they did, they were not as strong. Most of the children also felt better about themselves. Doctors have also used suggestion to change habits like nail-biting, thumb-sucking, and sleep-related problems.ResponseMany professional medical groups have accepted the medical use of psychology because they recognize its value.Nobody knows how suggestion works; however, doctors have learned that psychology has important applications in medicine 。
