His first job at the studio was writing captions （脚本） for silent movies. Within two years, he was writing scripts（剧本） and working as an assistant director. For the rest of the 1920s, Hitchcock worked on one film after another in Britain and Germany. Filming was often arough-and-ready（匆忙做成的） affair and the assistant directormissing, Hitchcock became a cameraman. A scene needed rewriting, Hitchcock rewrote it. Someone needed to be in charge of money when the film crew was on location, Hitchcock looked after the money.At the same time, this being the era of silent movies, Hitchcock was learning the language of cinema: telling a story －not through dialogue, but through visual images（视觉影象）. This led to his success later.When he began to direct his own films, first in Britain and later in Hollywood, he was determined to make films that held the audience's attention and kept tension（紧张感）. He succeeded. Hitchcock's ability to put you on the edge of your seat makes him one of the greatest makers of suspense（悬念） movies.（以下为试题题干）(1) [判断题]※Alfred Hitchcock's first job at the studio was writing captions for silent movies.(2) [判断题]※According to the context, "step in and plug gaps" (in Line 3, Para. 2) means asking for one's help.(3) [判断题]※Telling a story through dialogue prepared Hitchcock for his success later.(4) [判断题]※He was determined to draw the audience's attention and keep tension in his film-making.(5) [判断题]※He had taken up different jobs before he succeeded.。

Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.(1)、Which of the following statements is NOT true?_________A：People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.B：People who work in London prefer to live in the country.C：Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.D：Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city. (2)、With the same money ________, one can buy a little house with a garden in the country.A：getting a small flat with a garden B：having a small flat with a garden C：renting a small flat without a garden D：buying a small flat without a garden (3)、When the garden is in blossom, it means that one ________ has been rewarded. A：living in the country B：having spent time working in the gardenC：having a garden of his own D：having been digging, planting and watering(4)、People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that _______ if they had to live outside London.A：their life was meaningless B：their life was invaluableC：they didn't deserve a happy life D：they were not worthy of their happy life (5)、The underlined phrase get away from in the 3rd paragraph refers to ________. A：deal with B：do away withC：escape from D：prevent from2、A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco. "Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend. I'd like to bring him home with me.""Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him.""There's something you should know," the son continued, "he was injured pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mine（地雷）and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to live with us.""We're sorry to hear that, son. But, maybe we can help him find somewhere to live.""No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us.""Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden to us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own."At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building. The police believed he had killed himself.The grief-stricken（悲痛欲绝的）parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue（太平间）to identify the body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they didn't know, their son had only one arm and one leg.(1)、The soldier called his parents from San Francisco after having fought in Vietnam. A：TB：F(2)、The soldier told his parents that he wanted them to meet his friend in the army. A：TB：F(3)、His father considered his plan unacceptable.A：TB：F(4)、A few days later the parents were told by the police that their son had killed himself.A：TB：F(5)、The son killed himself because he was unable to find a job.A：TB：F第三部分、词汇与结构1.

Mr. Harris used to work in Dover, but then he changed his work, and he and his wife moved to another town. They did not have many friends there, but they soon met a lot of interesting people, and after a few weeks, they often went to dinner or to parties at other people’s houses.Then Mrs. Harris said to her hu sband, “We’ve been to a lot of other people’s houses, and now we must invite them to our house, mustn’t we?”“Yes, certainly,” answered her husband, “A big par ty will be the easiest thing, won’t it? Then we can start to invite people to dinner in small num bers next month.”So Mrs. Harris said, “Yes, I’ll invite all our friends here to a big party on 5th December.”“How many will that be?” Mr. Harris asked. “Don’t invite too many.”Mrs. Harris was beginning to write the invitations when her husbandsaw that she was writing, “Party: 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.”“That isn’t very nice, is it?” he said. “You’re telling our guests that they must go at 8:30.” So Mrs. Harris just wrote “Party: 6:30 p.m.”A lot of guests came, and they all had a good time, so they did notgo home at 8:30.

Certainly no creature in the sea is odder than the common sea cucumber（海参）. All living creatures, especially human beings, have their peculiarities, but everything about the little sea cucumber seems unusual.What else can be said about an odd animal that, among other eccentricities, eats mud, feeds almost continuously day and night but can live without eating for long periods, and can be poisonous but is considered supremely edible by gourmets（美食家）？For some fifty million years, despite all eccentricities, the sea cucumber has subsisted on its diet of mud. It is adaptable enough to live attached to rocks by its tube feet, under rocks in shallow water, or on the surface of mud flats. Common in cool water on both Atlantic and Pacific shores, it has the ability to such up mud or sand and digest whatever nutrients are present.Sea cucumbers come in a variety of colors, ranging from black to reddish-brown to sand-color and nearly white. One form even has vivid purple tentacles. Usually the creatures are cucumber-shaped — hence their name — and because they are typically rock inhabitants, this shape, combined with flexibility, enables them to squeeze into narrow cracks where they are safe from predators and ocean currents.Although they have voracious appetites, eating day and night, sea cucumbers have the capacity to become inactive and live at a low metabolic rate —（ceding sparingly or not at all for long periods, so that the marine organisms that provide their food have a chance to multiply. If it were not for this faculty, they would devour all the food available in a short time and would probably starve themselvesout of existence.But the most spectacular thing about the sea cucumber is the way it defends itself. Its major enemies are fish and crabs, when attacked, it squirts all its internal organs into the water. It also casts off attached structures such as tentacles. The sea cucumber will eviscerate（排出内脏） and regenerate itself if it is attacked or even touched; it will do the same if the surrounding water temperature is too high or if the water becomes too polluted. The passage is mainly about ______.A. the reason for the sea cucumber'''' s nameB. ways to identify the sea cucumberC. places where the sea cucumber can be foundD. the peculiarities that make the sea cucumber unusual10. Now she ( ) to do whatever she can for him.A. MakesB. LongsC. WaitsD. takes11. Upon ( ), please switch off the air-conditioner.A. apartB. departmentC. apartmentD. departure12.

It listed all the tradesmen in each village in my part of the country, and it was impressive to see the great variety of services which were available on one'''' s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside. Nowadays a superficial traveller in rural England might conclude that the village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the inhabitants or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. Admittedly there has been a contraction （收缩）of village commerce, but its vigor is still remarkable.Our local grocer''''s shop, for example, is actually expanding inspite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing （排队） up at a supermarket. And the proprietor （店主） knows well that personal service has asubstantial cash value.His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but hewill deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing of bicycling on the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old age pensioner （领养老金）who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing. The more affluent customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red-faced figure, instantly obtains it for them.The village gains from this sort of enterprise, of course. But I also find it satisfactory because a village shop offers one of the few ways in which a modest individualist can still get along in the world without attaching himself to the big battalions of industry or commerce. The writer implies that one disadvantage of town shops is that __.A. their prices are higherB. people cannot telephone themC. their staff may make less trouble to satisfy customersD. one has 10 queue up to pay in them39. Great changes ( ) in China since 1978.A. have been taken placeB. have taken placeC. has been taken placeD. has taken place40.

The manager was very proud of being able to provide any dish, no matter how unusual.At the bottom of the menu, there was a notice that said, “If you do not see the dish you require on this menu, please tell us and we will add it to the menu immediately.”The man looked at the menu and decided to make life really difficult for the manager and his chef. He would order something that was very unusual.When the waiter came up to take his order, he said, “You say you can serve any dish, anything at all, even if it''''s not on your menu, whic h is the longest menu in the world.”“That is correct, sir. We have never yet been unable to meet our customers'''' requirements.”“Very well,” the man said. “In that case, bring me two elephant ears on toast. Indian, not African.”The waiter wrote down on his pad：Two Indian elephant ears on toast.“Very good, sir”, he said. “That shouldn''''t take long. ”He walked away quickly.The man was very surprised and rather disappointed.Then he smiled as the waiter returned with a very unhappy look on his face.“Ah! ”the man said. “You can’t bring me elephant ears on toast, can you? ”The waiter was very apologetic.“I’m very sorry, sir, and this is most embarrassing, ” he said, “but I’m afraid we can’t. Unfortunately, we’ve run out ofbread. ” the waite r was unhappy because _____ .A. the man didn''''t order elephant earsB. they had no elephant to cookC. they didn''''t want to serve the customerD. the chef didn''''t know how to cook the elephant ears42.

And in the summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists (游客).Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon. Next day, this news appeared on page two of the town''s newspaper. The Beldon Post.FIRE AT SEABREEZELATE LAST NIGTH FIREMEN HURRIED TO THE SeabreezeHotel and quickly put out a smallfire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all ourvisitors, "Please don''t smoke cigarettes in bed." This was Beldon''s first hotel fire for five years. ! "''The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one: AOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRELast night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture (家具) at the Seabreeze Hotel. An angry holiday-maker said, "An electric lamp probably started the fire. The bedroom lamps are very old at some these hotels. When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp." We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield.What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident. There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel 1 st August: that is one fact. Do we know anything else? Yes——we know that firemen went to the hotel.Now what do you think of the rest the "news"?(1).

The Canfield Times used the headline like this in order to make its readers think ( )A. hotels in Beldon often catch fireB. hotels in Beldon don't often catch fireC. this was the second fire in the Seabreeze HotelD. Beldon was a good place except that hotels there are not quitesafe(4).

Many chemical pesticides(杀虫剂), such as DDT, are more dangerousto other animals than to the pests(害虫) themselves. However, there are safer methods used to control pests. One method iscalled biological pest control. It uses living things to control pest populations. For example, one type of biological pest control usesthe natural enemy of a pest. The natural enemy eats the pest, orstops it from reproducing. For instance, aphids(蚜虫)that eat leaves are controlled using ladybird beetles(瓢虫).The ladybird beetle reduces aphids populations by eating the pest. Many natural chemicals from plants and animals are excellent pesticides. Some plants contain chemicals that taste bad, smell bad, or are even poisonous to pests. Scientists can collect these chemicals and spray them on other plants. Some pests produce their own chemicals that can also be used tocontrol them. Many female insects give off chemicals to attract male. Scientists collect the chemical and use it to lure male insects. By killing male insects we may have fewer young insects. Pest control of any type can often be avoided if people use preventive methods. Many farmers prevent insects from becoming pests by changing the plants they grow ever year. Covering food and garbage can be reducing common pets such as flies. Thus many cases we can avoid problems by removing the food or shelter that pests like.(1). There are many ways to keep pests under control besides using ( )A. synthetic chemicalsB. natural chemicalsC. synthetic fertilizersD. natural fertilizers(2). Smell is a type of ( ) chemical used by insects.A. communicationB. pesticideC. herbicideD. agricultural(3). Why some natural chemicals from plants and animals are excellent pesticides?A. Some plants contain chemicals that are poisonous to pests.B. Some pests produce their own chemicals that can be used to control them.C. Scientists collect the chemical of female insects to lure male insects.D. All of the above.(4). The main idea for this passage is ( )A. It is impossible to control pests without pesticidesB. If people use precautionary methods to control pests, they do notneed to use pesticides.C. Many farmers change plants each yearD. Garbage and food in cities causes three major pest problems(5). Which is not mentioned in the passage?A. Compare and contrast different methods of controlling pets.B. Explain how pesticides work to kill pests.C. Describe how people can avoid using pesticides.D. Many chemical pesticides are dangerous3. Hotlines have become common in China. Some radio broadcasting stations use hotlines to encourage the listeners to take part in the talk shows.That''s a good idea. Yet, the fact is, some people do nothing but break the whole programme. Some people know little about the topic under discussion. Sometimes they do not even know what the host (主持人) is talking about. So the host has to tell thecaller what the show is about. Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express hope and show his ignorance (无知}. Then the host has to answer and explain——how silly this is! It wastes a lot of time.It seems that some people phone the hotlines in fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They don''t care what the topic is,whether they themselves are interested in or how silly they appear to be.I think that it''s necessary for radio stations to improve the hotline programmes. In my opinion, if a caller doesn''t know what is going on, the operator should not let the callers take part in it.(1). The sentence "some people do nothing but break the whole programmes" may tell us that ( ).A. radio stations use hotlines in a wrong wayB. it is a factC. it is a good ideaD. some people have unclear thoughts(2). According to the passage, which of the following is not true?A. Some people do not know what the host is talking about.B. Some people know little about the topic under discussion.C. Some people do not know what the show is about.D. The writer tells us that the host is silly.(3). The host has to answer and explain ( ).A. for the host works hardB. because of the caller's ignoranceC. for the host likes talking to the callerD. because a lot of questions are raised by the caller(4). The passage doesn't tell us ( ).A. that some listeners phone the hotline in funB. that some people just want to be heard by othersC. that some people who don't care what the topic is realize thatthey appear to be sillyD. what the hotlines programmes are(5). The underlined word "operator" in the last sentence refers tothe ( ).A. HostB. ListenerC. DoctorD. both A and B4. The sense of sound is one of our most important means of knowing what is going on around us. Sound has a wasted product, too, in the form of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound. Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets and better. Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals. They are surprised by what they have learned. Peace andquiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked at carefully. There is a saying about it being so noisy that you can’t hear yourself think. Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear o urselves think. If we don’t we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even worse mental problems. Noise adds more tension(紧张) to society that already faces enough stress. But noise is not a new problem. In ancient Rome,people complained so much about noise that the government stopped chariots (四轮马车)from moving through he streets at night!Ways ofmaking less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controlling noise. We cannot return to the “good old days” of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noise – if we shout loudly enough about it.(1). Why are scientists surprised by the findings in their noise study?A. Because the world is becoming more and more noisy.B. Because they have learned that noise is also a kind of pollution.C. Because noise is an unwanted waste for human beings.D. Because people knew little about the danger of noise before.(2). What may be the result if we cannot hear ourselves think?A. We may forget what we have thought about.B. Our thoughts may be interfered.C. Our mind may be harmed.D. WE may have difficulty using the right words.(3). When the writer says we cannot return to the good old days, he means that ( ).?A. our society is becoming much worse than beforeB. in our modern society it is hard to lead a quiet lifeC. the old days were much happier than the present timeD. it is impossible for us to deal with noise as we did before(4). From the last sentence of the passage we can learn that ( ).A. we can put noise under control if our measures are effectiveB. sometimes we have to shout loudly so that others can hear usC. shouting is a chief cause of noise pollutionD. it is important to warn people of the danger of noisepollution(5). Which of the following is TRUE according to the passageA. Only recently did people realize the harmfulness of noise.B. Noise pollution is the worst kind of pollution we suffer from.C. People are now trying to find ways to make noise as low as possible.D. The writer thinks that it is almost impossible for people to avoid noise.答案：一、单项选择题（60分，共 60 题，每小题 1 分）1. B2. D3. A4. B5. C6.
