Some weather reports go back only one century，but some trees can show us an exact record of the weather even further back.It's clear that a tree would grow best in a climate with lots of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable (有利的) to an unfavorable climate can be reading the tree rings in tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago，count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings，then we are sure that lots of sunny and rainy weather happened. If the rings are close together，then the climate was bad for the tree.Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of the weather，but also for the history of man. In a place of New Mexico you can find only sand－no trees and no people. However，many centuries ago a lot of people lived there. They left suddenly. Why?A scientist studied the dead tree rings which had grown there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were used to make fires and buildings. So, after the people cut down the trees，they had to move.(1)、It is understood that in a favorable climate tree rings grow far from each other.A：TB：F答案：A(2)、Trees brought lots of sunlight and rainfall.A：TB：F答案：B(3)、The scientists are interested in studying tree rings because they can tell whether the climate was favorable or not.A：TB：F答案：A(4)、Studying dead tree rings shows how the people left.A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The people had to leave the place of New Mexico because they had cut down all the trees.A：TB：F答案：A2、Britain and France are separated by the English Channel, a body of water that can be crossed in as few as 20 minutes. But the cultures of the two countries sometimes seem to be miles apart. 虽然英法只被短短20分钟就能跨越的英吉利海峡分隔，但两国之间的文化却相差甚远。

Good luck to you!Part I I阅读理解Passage 1There are stories about two U.S. presidents, Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren, which attempt to explain the American English term OK. We don‘tknow if either story is true, but they are both interesting.The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education. In fact, he had difficulty reading and writing. When important papers came to Jackson, he tried to read them and then had his assistants explain what they said. If he approved of a paper, he would write ―all correct‖on it. The problem was that he didn ‘tknow how to spell, so what he really wrote was ―ol korekt ‖. After a while, he shortened that term to ―OK‖.The second explanation is based on the place where President Van Buren was born, Kinderhook, New York. Van Bruen‘s friends organized a club to help him become President. They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club, and anyone who supported Van Buren was called―OK‖.11.The author C .A. believes both of the storiesB. doesn‘tbelieve a word of the storiesC. is not sure whether the stories are trueD. is telling the stories just for fun12.According to the passage, President Jackson D.A. couldn ‘tdraw up any documents at allB. didn ‘tlike to read important papers by himselfC. often had his assistants sign documents for himD. wasn ‘tgood at reading, writing or spelling13.According to the first story, the term ―OK ‖C.A. was approved of by President JacksonB. was the title of some official documentsC. was first used by President JacksonD. was an old way to spell ―all correct ‖14.According to the second story, the term ―OK ‖D.A. was the short way to say ―Old Kinderhook Club‖B. meant the place where President Van Buren was bornC. was the name of Van Buren ‘s clubD. was used to call Van Buren ‘s supporters in the election15.According to the second story, the term ―OK ‖was first used B.A. by Van BurenB. in a presidential electionC. to organize the Old Kinderhook ClubD. by the members of the ―Old Kinderhook Club ‖Passage 2Although the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food thanthe present population needs, its people are by now almost entirely an urban society. Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry( 林业 ), and most of the rest live in or around towns, small and large. Here the traditional picture is changing: every small town may stillbe very like other small towns, and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country, but most Americans do not live in small towns any more. Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas(large cities with their suburbs ) of more than a millionpeople each –a large proportion than in Germany or English, let alone France. The statistics( 统计 ) of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day. As the rush to live out of town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses, so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But more and more the typical American lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.16.If now America has 250 million people, how many of them are engaged in agriculture andforestry?CA. About 25 million.B. More than 25 millionC. Less than 25 millionD. Less than 225 million17.Which of the following four countries has the smallest proportion of people living inmetropolitan areas?CA. the United States.B. GermanyC. France.D. England18.What‘s the meaning of the word ―metropolitan ‖in the middle of the passage?AA. Of a large city with its suburbs.B. Of small and large towns.C. Of urban areas.D. Of rural areas.19.According to the passage, what can we learn about small towns in the United States?BA.Most small towns become gradually crowded.B.Small towns are still similar to each other.C.As the traditional picture is changing, towns are different.D.Small towns are turning into large cities.20.Why is it hard to say when a piece of country becomes a suburb?CA.Because they are the same.B.Because the rush takes place too quickly.C.Because the process is gradual.D.Because more and more Americans live in metropolitan areas.Passage 3If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to saythat we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of whatwe did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we maycall ?remembered history ‘.Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.21.Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage?DA.―Remembered history‖, compared with written history, is less reliable.B.Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history.C.A written account of our daily activities helps us to be able to answer many questions.D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.22.We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because D.A. there was nothing worth being written down at that timeB. the people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fireD. the people there did not know how to write23.―Remembered history ‖refers to D.A. history based on a person ‘s imaginationB. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and danced about the most important eventsD. both B and C24.―Remembered history ‖is regarded as valuable only when B.A. it is written downB. no written account is availableC. it proves to be trueD. people are interested in it25. The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now ifthe ancient people had A.A. kept a written record of every past eventB. not burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsD. made more songs and dancesPart I I I语法与词汇选择题26.

Somewhat surprising was the fact that the majority had lived most of their lives in cities. In spite of the city ‘s image as an unhealthy place, city living often provides benefits that country living can lack. One factor seems to be important to the longevity of those interviewed.This factor is exercise. In the cities it is often faster to walk short distances than to wait for a bus. Even taking public transportation often requires some walking. Smaller apartment houses have no elevators, and so people must climb stairs. City people can usually walk to local supermarkets. Since parking spaces are hard to find, there is often no alternative to walking.On the other hand, those who live in the country and suburbs do not have to walk every day. In fact, the opposite is often true. To go to school, work, or almost anywhere else, they must ridein cars.11. The Vienna survey may help to explain.A. the complaints of people in apartment housesB. the cause of Mrs. Groeger ‘s deathC. the longevity of people like Mrs. GroegerD. the image of cities in general12. The purpose of the second paragraph is to list some.A. benefits of walkingB. occasions for walking in city lifeC. comments made by city peopleD. problems of city living13. To reach the third floor of a building, it would probably be most healthful.A. to take the elevatorB. to walk up the stairsC. to ride in a carD. to find an alternative to walking14. People who live in the country probably do more driving than walking because.A. they don ‘tlive near business areasB. they don ‘tneed the exerciseC. they never have parking problemsD. they can ‘tafford to take the bus15. A conclusion that can be drawn from this passage is that.A. air pollution is not seriousB. anyone can live to be 107C. country people should move to the cityD. walking is healthful exercisePassage 2For any Englishman, there can never be any discussion as to who is the world ‘s greatest dramatist. Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. EveryEnglishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the work of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare ‘s writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well- known proverbs and quotations.Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, makes full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal use of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand.There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare‘s day.16.

In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees, he has cut them down in large numbers.Two thousand years ago, a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but, without its trees, its soil became bare and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the country found itself faced by floods and starvation.Even where a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this. They cut down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees. So, unless the government has a good system of control, or can educate the people, the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees. The results are even more serious: for where there are trees, their roots break the soil up, allowing the rain to sink in, and also bind the soil. This prevents the soil from being washed away. But where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface, and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow. When all the topsoil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert.21.Trees are useful to man mainly in three ways,the most important of which is that theycan.A. keep him from the hot sunshineB. enable him to build warshipsC. make him draw quick profit from themD. protect him from droughts and floods22.It ‘s a great pity that.A. man is only interested in building empiresB. man is eager to profit from treesC. man hasn‘trealized the importance of trees to himD. man hasn‘tfound out that he has lost all trees23.Sooner or later the forests will disappear.A. unless a country has a plenty supply of treesB. unless people stop cutting down their treesC. unless all people are taught the importance of planting treesD. unless the government punishes those who cut trees instead of planting them24.The word ―bind ‖in Paragraph 5 means ―‖.A. to wash awayB. to make wetC. to make stay togetherD. to improve25.When there is a heavy rain, trees can help to prevent floods, as they can.A. keep rain from falling down to soft groundB. cause the soil to allow rainwater to sink inC. prevent the soil from being washed awayD. make the topsoil stick togetherPart I I I语法与词汇选择题26.TOEFL is a test for students native language is not English.A. thatB. of whomC. whoseD. which27.He told me how he had given me shelter and protection without which I of hunger.A. would be diedB. would dieC. would have diedD. will die28.This article deals with the natural phenomenon which most interesting to everyone.A. areB. isC. they areD. it is29.He studied hard in his youth,contributed to his great success in later life.A. thatB. itC. whatD. which30.The population of many Alaskan cities has doubled in the past three years.A. large thanB. as great asC. more thanD. as many as31.He‘s determined to finish the job long it takes.A. no matterB. howeverC. whereverD. whatever32.Hardly ever get a good job these days without a good education.A. people mightB. people canC. do peopleD. have people33.Nowhere else in the world more attractive scenery than in Switzerland.A. you can findB. is foundC. can you findD. has been found34.Children learn best by studying at their own.A. rateB. speedC. paceD. growth35.The committee is due to its report by the end of this year.A. releaseB. relieveC. relateD. retain36.She‘s an only child, but they didn ‘treally her.A. hurtB. damageC. spoilD. harm37.His parents him the opportunity to go to university.A. ignoredB. neglectedC. refusedD. denied38.all our efforts to save the school, the authorities decided to close it.A.

As a boy, he was determined to become a baseball player, but when he broke his arm in practice at the age of fourteen and was forced to stay off the playing field for a while, he took notice of the natural world around him and liked what he saw.After he had recovered from his injury, he caught a squirrel and raised it as a pet. Soon he was bringing home snakes and other creatures from the woods near his school.In 1962, he entered Blakeford College and majored in biology. By 1966 he had received his Bachelor of Science degree and two years later at Drysdale University, he received his Doctor of Science degree. It was while he was doing field research for his doctoral studies in SouthAmerica in 1967 that he discovered and named the Kamron lizard. This animal was different from others of its kind in that it had only four toes on its front feet. In other respects, it was similar to others of the same family. It could change its color and go for long periods without food.11.Of the four statements, which one best indicates the author ‘s idea?A.Dr. Gates is a scientist who can always attract the public attention to his research.B.Dr. Gates is a very famous scientist, though he wanted to be a sportsman at first.C.Dr. Gates is a scientist who always carries a notebook with him wherever he goes.D.Dr. Gates is a very popular for his determination to become a baseball player.12.
