A★★☆☆☆September 30, 2011Skunk Scooters100 Caldwell StreetOmaha, NE 68102To Whom It May Concern:On August 27, 2011, I ordered a Skunk Scooter from your website. I was very excited when the motorcycle arrived because I bought it with the money I saved from doing part-time jobs over the summer vacation. Unfortunately, I have experienced several problems with my Skunk Scooter.First of all, the front wheel always shakes from side to side, making the scooter difficult to control. Also, it makes an unpleasant sound as the wheel works. The sound is much louder than a car engine. The instructions say we should tighten the screws (螺丝). My mom and I did that. However, it did not help at all.In addition, something is wrong with the handlebars (手把). According to your website, they can be easily raised to a height of thirty-six inches. This does not seem to be true of the Skunk Scooter I received. The handlebars are set at thirty inches, and they cannot be raised or lowered. It appears that the knob (球形把手) that is used to change the height is pushed into the handlebars, which makes it impossible to turn in either direction. It is extremely uncomfortable to ride the motorbike with itshandlebars in such a low position.Although you advertised the Skunk Scooter as “the quickest, coolest scooter on the planet,” it makes me feel very disg runtled. I am expecting that the repair of the scooter would be done at the earliest or else I want my money back. I know that you would not want customers to keep broken products. Therefore, I would like to thank you in advance for taking the trouble to solve the problem.Sincerely,Natasha Greene21. The text is probably written by a _____.A. repairmanB. shopkeeperC. studentD. salesgirl22. What’s wrong with the front wheel of the scooter?A. Several screws on it are missing.B. It is not as big as the website says.C. It keeps shaking and makes a noise.D. It cannot turn as fast as the back one.23. The underlined word “disgruntled” in the text probably means “_____”.A. excitedB. confusedC. proudD. dissatisfied24. Natasha wrote the letter mainly to _____.A. demand after-sales serviceB. send her congratulationsC. express thankfulnessD. make an apologyB★★★☆☆Recently, a painting of actress Elizabeth Taylor, which was drawn by American artist and filmmaker Andy Warhol, sold for US $63 million. Another simple black-and-white image of a Coca-Cola bottle sold for US $35 million. But the all-timerecord for a Warhol painting is $100 million for a piece tit led “Eight Elvises”. What’s amazing is not that the pieces sold for so much, but the fact that they are not what you would call traditional art. They are “pop art”, art based on simple images of things and people from advertising, movies, music and day-to-day life.Born in the 1920s, Warhol grew up mostly separated from other children due to (由于) health problems. He spent a lot of his time alone drawing and then went on to study art in college. He began his career as a commercial (商业的) artist, creating pictures for magazine articles and newspaper ads. That inspired him to experiment with pop art and he hosted America’s first pop art exhibition in the 1960s. The show met with a lot of discussion with some people saying that what he was doing was not art.Warhol followed his first works with a series we are all familiar with —paintings of Coca-Cola bottles, Brillo soap pad boxes, and portraits (肖像) of famous people. Soon after, Warhol stopped creating his own artwork. Instead, he had assistants and other artists create them at his studio called “The Factory”. Warhol wanted to show the world that art doesn’t have to be complex or original; it can be created by anyone using ordinary things.Today, Warhol’s work is unmistakable in its uniqu eness. No matter how you may feel about his work, one thing cannot be argued. He introduced the world to a whole new art form, inspiring future generations of artists, and eventually becoming one of the most famous and successful pop art artists in the world.25. Which of the following pictures sold for $100 million?26. During his childhood, Warhol _____.A. drew pictures for magazinesB. always lived a lonely lifeC. showed no interest in artD. liked to paint and dance27. Calling his studio “The Factory”, Warhol tried to show _____.A. his studio was as big as a factoryB. pop art is different from traditional artC. artists prefer to work in a factoryD. art should be simple and easy to produce28. What would be the best title for the text?A. Andy Warhol’s world of pop artB. Women in the pop art movementC. A fun pop-art self-portrait for kidsD. Popular paintings by Andy WarholC★★★☆☆John was part of my childhood growing up in the 1970s and a link to sunny, fun-filled days spent on the beach at Bangor in Northern Ireland where we went forour summer holidays. To many, he was a mystery. Every afternoon John would wander to the end of the pier (码头) where he fed the seagulls and delighted in the sound of their excited cries as they flew around his head.Often I asked my family questions regarding John. Eventually I gave up as no one could tell me anything about him. As I grew up, my visits to the beach became less frequent, and my memories of John buried in a child’s imagination.Last year memories came flooding back as I walked along the coastline, where I noticed a lady feeding the seagulls on the pier, and I decided to introduce myself. Then I came to know that the lady was John’s daughter, and after John left this world she carried out the ritual (惯例), which had held such importance for her father.In some strange way I felt we shared a bond, each needing to remember. In return, Lucy told me of John’s life, his days in the British Navy (海军) during World War I and how he almost lost hope when his ship was attacked by a German U-boat in the North Sea and he found himself in a lifeboat with five others.Close to death, he thought he heard the sound of wings. He put up his hands, only to catch a seagull that had landed on the side of the boat. The seagull saved the lives of the six men as it was used to catch fish, which kept them alive until they re ached land. This period of John’s life was one he never talked about. But the ritual he first performed as a young man remained a part of him until he died.Now I visit Lucy as often as I can, just to chat or very often walk along the beach to the pier end. We enjoy the comfortable silence, each lost in special memories.29. Seeing John feeding the seagulls, the author might feel _____.A. proudB. worriedC. curiousD. guilty30. Why did the author introduce herself to the lady?A. She wanted to make more friends.B. She was also fond of feeding seagulls.C. She was told the lady was John’s daughter.D. She was attracted by what the lady was doing.31. We can infer from the text that John _____.A. once served in both World WarsB. was a man with a grateful heartC. spent his childhood in BangorD. joined the navy in the 1970s32. What does the author mainly tell us in the text?A. She expressed her thanks to a seagull that saved her life.B. She told us the story of how she made friends with a lady.C. She shared with us her memories of a man who fed seagulls.D. She talked about her childhood spent on the beach at Bangor.D★★★★☆A man pulls into the parking lot, turns off the engine, and sits for a minute feeling anxious about the next two hours. An important client (客户) has invited him to an open house in celebration of their new downtown office. He hates these things. He doesn’t know what to say, he doesn’t know anyone except the client, and he alw ays feels like he’s trying not to look lost. He sinks deeper into the seat, making a tough decision about when to leave.Casual (随意的) conversation happens at least a dozen times a day. Yet for some of us, many occasions that involve small talk don’t ever get any easier, and may even increase anxiety and cause some people to feel on edge about social events, business lunches, and chance meetings with neighbors. Unfortunately, as we are suffering our own discomfort, our neighbors, friends, and workmates generally consider us distant, cold, and proud.If your conversations disappear almost as soon as they’ve begun, or if you’re an unwilling participant at social and business get-togethers, you’ll need some skills. Just get involved in a meaningful dialogue, try your best to introduce an interesting topic when there’s a silence, and develop business friendships whenever and wherever possible.Small talk isn’t the lowly stepchild of real conversation. Without it, you rarely get to the real conversation. Small talk is the icebreaker that clears the way for adeeper conversation. People who excel at small talk are experts at making others feel included, valued, and comfortable. And that goes a long way toward furthering a business relationship, or making a friend.Don’t be fooled into thinking that all those other people you see who are smiling and happily chatting come by it naturally. Sure, some are natural-born talkers, but most have had to work at it. They’ve practiced, attended cour ses and read books. You don’t think so? Believe me, I know. I used to be a single-minded, unsociable engineer — no one has worse skills than I once did. I have become an expert by learning some skills and then practicing them. It’s that simple.33. According to Paragraph 2, those who are poor at casual conversation _____.A. are sometimes considered unfriendlyB. believe small talk is a waste of timeC. have few chances to meet strangersD. feel comfortable when they are with neighbors34. What does the author stress in Paragraph 4?A. The important functions of small talk.B. The difficulties of starting a deep conversation.C. The advantages of small talk over real conversation.D. The differences between small talk and real conversation.35. In the last paragraph, the author mentions his own experience to _____.A. show a good method of improving social skillsB. prove some people are born brilliant speakersC. show his achievements in social activitiesD. prove conversation skills can be acquired第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now.Still, her answer surprised me: “Green tea.”As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink Indian tea.I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses.At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian. It was a strange country.How things change! And how soon!Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China.The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment （投资）and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”. But it’s a two-way street, I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Bangalore to train in software. Meanwhile, all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.No wonder that trade, which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to his about us$15 billion for last year and us$20 billion by 2008, a goal set by both governments.No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian （中印）century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.But what is still a wonder to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.36. Why did the mother ask for Chinese green tea?A. She was tired of Indian tea.B. She had a son working in China.C. She believed it had a curing effect.D. She was fond of Chinese products.37. What does the author mean by “it’s a two-way street’ in paragraph 10?A. China and India have different traffic rules.B. Tea trade works wonders in both India and China.C. Chinese products are popular in both China and India.D. The exchanges between India and China benefit both.38. What do we know about the Indian IT industry?A. It will move its head office to Shenzhen.B. It is seeking further development in China.C. It has attracted an investment of US$15 billion .D. It caught up with the US IT industry in2008.39. In the text the author expresses_____.A. his concern for his mother’s healthB. his support for drinking Chinese green teaC. his surprise at China’s recent developmentD. his wonder at the growth of India’s IT industryBWhat is eBay? The simple answer is that it is a global trading platform where nearly anyone can trade practically anything. People can sell and buy all kinds of products and goods. Including cars, movies and DVDs, sporting goods, travel tickets, musical instruments, clothes and shoes- the list goes on and on.The idea came from Peter Omidyar, who was born in Paris and moved to Washington when he was still a child, At high school, he became very interested in computer programming and after graduating from Tuft University in 1988, he worked for the next few years as a computer engineer. In his free time he started eBay as a kind of hobby, at first offering the service free by word of mouth. By 1996 there was so much traffic on the website that he had to upgrade（升级）and he began charging a fee to members. Joined by a friend, Peter Skoll, and in 1998 by his capable CEO, Meg Whitman, he has never looked back. Even in the great. com crashes of the late 1990s, eBay has gone from strength to strength. It is now one of the ten most visited online shopping websites on the Internet.eBay sells connections, not goods, putting buyer and seller into contact with each other. All you have to do is lake an e-photo, write a description, fill out a sales form and you are in business: the world is your market place. Of course for each item （商品）sold eBay gets a percentage and that is great deal of money. Every day there are more than sixteen million items listed on eBay and eighty percent of the items are sold.40. We learn from the text that eBay provides people with______.A. a way of buying and selling goodsB. a website for them to upgradeC. a place to exhibit their own photosD. a chance to buy things at low prices41. Why did Peter create eBay after graduating from university?A. For funB. To make moneyC. For gathering the engineersD. To fulfill a task of his company42. From “he has never looked back ”in Paragraph 2 we learn that peter________.A. did not feel lonelyB. was always hopefulC. did not think about the pastD. became more and more successful43. How does eBay make money from its website ?A. By bringing callers together.B. By charging for each sale.C. By listing items online.D. By making e-photos.CHow should one invest a sum of money in these days of inflation (通货膨胀)? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. "The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round people's wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves."Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour-glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in an antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?44. According to the passage, collecting antique clocks ______.A can hardly keep the value of your savingsB will cost much of your savingsC may increase your wealthD needs your bravery45. By quoting (引用) the remark of a being from another planet, the author intends to ______.A. suggest human beings are controlled by a clockB. describe why clocks can rule the planet EarthC. tell readers what clocks look likeD. compare clocks to human beings46. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time?A. Counting the beating of one's own heart.B. Making use of candles, sand and water.C. Observing shadows cast by the sun.D. Keeping slaves busy day and night.47. The underlined phrase stately homes in paragraph 4 means ______.A state-owned housesB houses in very good conditionC grand houses open to the publicD houses where statesmen meet regularlyDWhen people hear a president speak, they seldom think about others helping to shape the presentation（报告）. Today, however, presidents depend on writers such as J. Terry Edmonds to help them communicate （交流）effectively. Edmonds is the first African American ever to work as a full-time speechwriter for a U. S. president; he is so the first African American to serve as director of speechwriting for White House. His is an all-American story of success.Edmonds grew up in Baltimore, Maryland; his father drove a truck, and his mother worked as a waitress. A. great reader, Edmonds showed a gift for writing at his high school, Baltimore City College. After graduating in 1967 Edmonds went on to Morgan State University.Edmonds began his career in business, with jobs in public relations and communications. He joined the world of politics as news secretary for his congressman （国会议员）from Baltimore During Bill Clinton’s presidency, he wrote speeches for Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala and worked in a number of jobs in the White House and in governmental departments. President Clinton then appointed （任命）him to the office of directory of speechwriting. Following the 2000 elections, Edmonds returned to Morgan State Univers ity as the school’s special assistant to the president for 2001-200248. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. Edmonds proved himself to be good at writing at high school.B. Edmonds graduated from Morgan State University in 1967.C. Edmonds was the first full-time speechwriter.D. Edmonds served the White House after 2000.49. Edmonds entered the world of politics first as _________.A. news secretary for a CongressmanB. a speechwriter for President ClintonC. news secretary in the White HouseD. a speechwriter for Secretary Donna Shalala50.

My thick black hair had been recently cut short into an untidy style. Her natural blonde hair flowed to her waist and looked great. I was 12 and one of the oldest in the class while she was 11 and the youngest. I was awkward and shy. She wasn’t. I couldn’t stand her，considering her my enemy. But she liked me and wanted to be friends with me.One day，she invited me over and I said yes—I was too shocked to answer any other way. My family had moved six times in six years，and I had never managed to develop any friendships. But this girl who wore the latest fashions wanted me to go home with her after school.She lived in a fun part of town that had two pizza places，an all -night bookstore，a movie theater and a park. As we walked from the school bus stop through her neighborhood，I tried to guess which house might be hers. Was it the white one with the perfect lawn or the three-story house with a front porch？I got very surprised when she led me into an old apartment building. She lived on the fourth floor in a two-room place with her mother，her stepfather，her two brothers and her sister.When we got into the room she shared with her sister，she took out a big case of Barbies，which was my next surprise. I had never played with them. We sat on the floor，laughing as we made up crazy stories about the Barbies. We found out that we both wanted to be writers when we were older and both had wild imaginations. We had a great time that afternoon.Lisa was loved by the whole neighborhood. The bookstore owners lent her fashion magazines；the movie theater gave her free tickets...Soon I was included in her magic world. We slept over at each other’s h ouse and spent every free moment together.Lisa，my first real friend since childhood，helped me get through the rough years of early adolescence (青春期) and taught me an amazing and very surprising thing about making friends：your worst enemy can turn out to be your best friend. 36．The writer and Lisa were similar in the way that________.A．they were both new studentsB．they had the same hairstyleC．they were both tallD．they were of the same age37．One day Lisa invited the writer________.A．to go to the movie B．to go to her homeC．to go to walk in a park D．to go to a pizza place38．In the passage the writer described Lisa as a girl who was________.A．awkward and shy B．rich and happyC．quiet and lonely D．friendly and lovely39．Which of the following did the writer learn from Lisa?A．How to make up stories. B．How to deal with enemies.C．How to make friends. D．How to live a better life.B.Student participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the student’s oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures. In graduate discussions the professor had a “manager” role and the students make presentations and lead discussions. The students do the actual teaching in these discussions.A professor’s teaching method is another factor that determines the degree and type of student participation. Some professors prefer to control discussions while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it. Many professors encourage st udents to question their ideas. Students who object to the professor’s point of view should be prepared to prove their positions.In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode of instruction is generally traditional, with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes. However, new educational trends have turned up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years. Students in education, society, and history classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design projects, make presentations, and examine case studies. Since some college or university courses are “practical” rather than theoretical, they pay more attention to “doing” for themselves.40.“Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of thestudent” in ____ class.A．the humanities and social sciencesB．the science and mathematicsC．the theoretical lessonsD．the strictly controlled courses41. From the passage we know that education in the humanities and society__________.A．has not changed much in the past twenty yearsB．pay attention to students’ studying instead of teachers’ teachingC．is much more important than that of science and mathematicsD．has become more practical than theoretical.42.The reason why some professors ask students to make presentations and leaddiscussions is that __________.A．these professors are often not well prepared before classB．these professors want to stress “doing”C．these professors want to test the students abilitiesD．these professors are not willing to teach theory43.Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?A．Student participation is not common in many courses like society and history classes.B．Some professors want to control the classroom discussion.C．Some of students are wanted to attend the lecture of science and mathematics.D．New educational trends have turned up in the teaching of natural sciences such as chemistry.CAs a result of pollution, Lake Erie, on the borders of the USA and Canada, is now without any living things.Pollution in water is not simply a matter of “poisons” killing large numbers of fish overnight, Very often the effects of pollution are not noticed for many months or years because the first organisms（生物体）to be affected are either plants or plankton. But these organisms are the food of fish and birds and other creatures. When this food disappears, the fish and birds die too. In this way a whole food chain can be wiped out, and it’s not until dead fish and water birds are seen at the river’s edge or on the seashore that people realize what is happening.Where do the substances which pollute the water come from? There are two main sources of sewage（污水）and industrial waste . As more detergent（洗涤剂）is used in the home, so more of it is finally put into our rivers, lakes and seas . Detergents harm water birds, dissolving the natural substances which keep their feathers water - proof. Sewage itself, if not properly treated, makes the water dirty and prevents all forms of life in rivers and the sea from receiving the oxygen they need. Industrial waste is even more harmful as there are many highly poisonous things in it, such as copper and lead（铅）.So, if we want to stop this pollution, the answer is simple: sewage and industrial waste must be made clear before flowing into the water. It may already be too late to save some rivers and lakes, but others can still be saved if the correct action is taken at once.44．Pollution of water is noticed________.A. when the first organisms are affectedB. when a good many fish and birds dieC. when poisonous things are poured into waterD. as soon as the balance of nature is destroyed45．The living things die because there is no ________in the lake or river.A. waterB. fishC. poisonD. oxygen46．Which of the following is harmful according to the passage?A. OrganismsB. Plants and plankton in the waterC. Waste water from cleaningD. Industrial waste made clear before flowing into the water.47．The way to stop water pollution is to________.A. realize the serious situation clearlyB. put oxygen into the riverC. make the waste material harmless before flowing into the waterD. make special room in the sea for our rubbishDFor many years, I was convinced that my suffering was due to my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts, and rejections with it.Many weight－conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved being special, and being cherished. We fantasize about what it will be like when we reach the long－awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self－worth, and, of course, love.It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards vary with culture. In Samoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us strive hard to change our body, but in vain. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes.48. The passage tries to highlight the importance of _________.A．body size B．attitudes toward lifeC．culture difference D．different beauty standards49. What does the word “everything” in paragraph 2 mean?A．All the problems. B．All the properties.C．The whole world. D．The absolute truth.50. What can be inferred about the author?A．The author is a Samoan.B．The author succeeded in losing weight.C．The author has been troubled by her/ his weight.D．The author probably got wounded in wars or accidents.第二节：根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
