Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I wanted a rest before catching the train, so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the station coffee shop.It was a cheap self-service place with long tables to sit at.I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place and went to get a cup of coffee.When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next seat.It was one of those wild-looking boys, with dark glasses and old clothes, and his hair was colored bright red at the front.Not so unusual these days.What did surprise me was that he?d started to eat my chocolate!

Naturally, I was rather uneasy about him, but I didn?t want to make more trouble.I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate.The boy looked at me closely.Then he took a second piece of my chocolate.I could hardly believe it.Still I didn?t say anything to him.When he took a third piece, I felt more angry than uneasy.I thought, “Well, I shall have the last piece.” and I got it.The boy gave me a strange look, then stood up.As he left he shouted out, “There?s something wrong with this woman!” Everybody looked at me, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and ready to leave.My face turned red when I knew I?d made a mistake.It wasn?t my chocolate that I had been eating.There was mine, unopened, just under my newspaper.81.A self-service shop may be a place where you __________.A.can buy what you want at the lowest price B.can get everything you want free of charge C.have to get what you want all by yourself

I left my friend?s house shortly after seven.It was still too early for me to have my evening meal, so I walked along the seafront(濱海馬路)for about an hour until I began to feel hungry.By that time I was not far from a favorite restaurant of mine, where I often went to eat two or three times a week.I knew the owner well and frequ ently complimented(贊美, 恭維)him on his excellent cooking.I went into the restaurant, which was already crowded, and ordered my meal.While I was waiting for the soup to arrive, I looked around to see if I knew anyone in the restaurant.It was then that I noticed that a man sitting at a corner table near the door kept glancing in my direction, as if he knew me, I certainly did not know him, for I never forgot a face.The man had a newspaper open in front of him, which he was pretending to read, though all the while I could see that he was keeping an eye on me.When the waiter brought my soup, the man was clearly puzzled by the familiar way in which the waiter and I addressed each other.He became even more puzzled as time went on and it grew more and more obvious that I was well known in the restaurant.Eventually he got up and went into the kitchen.After a few minutes he came out again, paid his bill and left without another glance in my direction.When I had finished and was about to pay my bill, I called the owner of the restaurant over and asked him what the man had wanted.The owner was a little embarrassed by my question and at first did not want to tell me.I insisted.“Well,” he said, “that man was a detective.” “Really?” I said, considerably surprised.“He followed you here because he thought you were a man he was looking for,” the owner of the restaurant said.“When he came into the kitchen, he showed me a photograph of the wanted man.He certainly looked like you!Of course, since we know you here, I was able to convince him that he had made a mistake.” “It?s lucky I came to a restaurant where I am known,” I said, “otherwise I might have been arrested!”

Competition and Cooperation

Competition is a common phenomenon in our social life.We compete when we play games, we try to do better than others in our study, and there is constant competition for jobs, money and so forth.We can say, to some extent, competition is one of the motive forces of the development of society.We often find competition and cooperation at the same time.Think of a football game.Each team is competing with the other team, but each member of the team is cooperating with his or her teammates.In most cases, we can?t have competition without cooperation.Thus they are equally important.While we are advocating competition, we can not forget cooperation.Nothing is to be carried to extremes.Pure and exclusive competition leads to failures.Only competition together cooperation helps us a great deal in obtaining our goal and satisfying our needs, especially in modernizing our country.

A woman:heads into apopular New York City coffee shop on a cold: winter rooming.Just ahead of her, a man drops a few papers.The woman pauses to help gather them.A clerk ata busy store thanks a customer who has just bought something.”Enjoy“ the young woman says, smiling widely.”Have a nice day.“ She sounds like she really means it.These arethe common situations we may see every: day.However, in her best-selling book Talk to the Hand, Lynne Truss argues that common good manners such as saying ”Excuse me“ almost no longer exist.There are certainly plenty who would agree with her.According to one recent study, 70 percent of the U.S.adults(成A.)said people are ruder now than they were 20 years ago.Is it really true? We decided to find out if good manners are really hard to see.In this politeness study, reporters were sent to many cities in the world.They performed three experiments: ”door tests“(would anyone hold the door open for them?);”paper drops“(who would help them gather a pile of ”accidentally“ dropped papers?);and ”service tests“(which salesclerks would thank them for a purchase [購物]?)In New York, 60 tests(20 of each type)were done.Along the way, the reporters met all types of people: men and women of different races, ages, professions(職業(yè)), and income levels.And guess what? In the end, four out of every five :people they met passed their: politeness test making New York the most polite city in the study.44.What does Lynne Truss argue in Talk to the Hand?

A.More people passed the tests in New York than in any other cities.B.Different kinds of people acted differently in the New York tests.C.Four out of five people passed the politeness test in the study.D.Manypeople in the experiment passed the tests by guessing.D This is not a diet(減肥食譜)or a hard ~exercise program.Nobody can stick to those for long.Instead, it's a simple way to make weight loss a natural part of the life you already live.And guess what? It's fun!You don't have to give up the foods you love or do regular exercises.It's about balancing calories(平衡卡路里)in tiny ways that add up to big benefits(好處).You just use some tricks the ”naturally thin" people do.Pick the ones you like, stick with them, and you'll lose weight and be strong!

Talk it UP Every time you pick Up the phone, stand up and walk around.Heavy people sit on average two and h half hours more every day than thin people, according to astudy.Get face time We use e-mailso much that we've forgotten what our colleagues look like.Pick a colleague or two who sit farthest from you: and deliver 10 of those daily messages in person.And go out of your way: go to a bathroom ora copy machine on another floor and take the stairs, of course.Think about your drink Consider beer or wine instead of a frozen drink: A glass of regular beer has 140 calories and a serving of wine has 126 calories, while a strawberry daiquiri has about 300 and a margarita 340.Reduce a total of 100 calories each day and you'll be able to lose about 10 pounds in a year.This is really not difficult to do.47.What is mainly talked about in the passage?

Recently, more than 2,000 high school teachers have been asked about the effect of the Interneton their students.Teachers say the Internet has had a good influence(影響and a not-so-good influence on this generation.Three quarters of the teachers say the Internet and search tools have had a great effect on theirstudents'research habits and skills.But 87 percent agree that this young generation don' t knowabout hard work and can't stay attentive(注意力集中的)for long.And 64 percent say the Internetdoes more to distract(使分心)students than to help them in their studies.Many students think “doingresearch”just means doing a quick search on Google.According to the teachers, one problem is that students trust too much of the information on theInternet.These students have not developed skills to judge the quality of the information.It' s some-thing that really has to be taught and paid attention to.It' s like everything else.In a world wherethings can happen quickly, you really need to have a way to step back, think and make judgmentabout the information you have.And teachers can do a lot to teach that.Another problem is that being able to quickly find information keeps the students from workinghard.They become dependent on search tools and do not make enough use of printed books.Manyteachers are also afraid that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others.36.What does the text mainly discuss about the Internet?

A.Its success in high school teaching.B.Its influence on school teachers.C.Its achievements in school research.D.Its effect on high school students.【答案】D

38.What should be taught to students according to Paragraph 3 ?

A.Ways to improve their research habits.B.How to do research on the Internet.C.Skills to judge the quality of information.D.How to pay attention to their studies.【答案】C

sity football stadium(體育場).Holding back my tears, I search for my son in the sea of people.Sud-denly, there he is.I jump to my feet and start waving.Arms flying back and forth above my head, Ilook like a windmill(風(fēng)車),or maybe an airport worker guiding a plane.I see him smile,then laughas he pulls his camera out of his pocket.He takes a picture of me as he waves back, and then goes tofind his seat.What is it about graduations that makes them so moving? Why do most of us women cry as we-watch our sons ,daughters, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews march in dark robes(長袍).9 We crypartly because, no matter how old our children are, and no matter how much they have achieved, inour eyes they are still the little babies we carry around the house to comfort.And ,of course, we cry also because something wonderful is ending, and we miss it already.Whatever is on its way to take its place will not be the same.It has been such a gift to have my songo to college close to home.We never have to worry about whether he will be able to make the triphome for a hohday.But this was a time-limited gift.My son will attend graduate school in California.We will talk and text like crazy, and visit as often as we can.But it will not be the same.40.Why are people gathering in the university stadium?

D

Body language is of great importance tohumans.We carry many of the meanings through body

movements.However, many forms of body language we consider to be fine in our country can get usinto trouble in other parts of the world.A smile is one of the most common examples in different countries.While Americans smile freely atstrangers,in Russia this is considered strange and even impolite.In Asian countries a smile isn' tnecessarily an expression of joy but it can be used to express pain.The acceptable physical distance is another major difference.In Latin America and the MiddleEast the acceptable distance is much shorter than what most Europeans and Americans feet comforta-ble with.Hand and arm movements as a form of body language are also very different amongcountries.Handshakes are usually acceptable almost everywhere, even between strangers;however,kissing on the cheek and touching on the shoulder or other body parts aren' t.For many people inAsia and other parts of the world, such actions are seen as a violation(侵犯)of one' s personalspace.This is why you should not touch others easily.Eye contact(目光接觸)is one of the forms of body language where the differences are most strikingInAmerica and Latin America looking the other person in the eye is a sign of respect.But in Asian countries,prolonged(過長的)eye contact is especially rude,so you should try your best not to do that.47.To humans, body language is__________.A.important

B.funny

C.uncommon

D.Strange

【答案】A

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第一段第一句可知，肢體語言對人類意義重大。故A正確。

48.In which place is smiling at strangers considered impolite?

A.The U.S.B.Asia.C.Latin America.D.Russia.【答案】D

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第二段第二句可知，在美國即使對陌生人也可以不拘束地微笑，但是在俄羅斯這種表現(xiàn)是很奇怪的，甚至是不禮貌的。故D正確。

49.Which form of body language is acceptable almost everywhere?

A.Kissing on the cheek.B.Shaking hands.C.Touching on the shoulder.D.Keeping a short distance.【答案】B

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。由第三段第四句可知，幾乎在任何地方。握手都是可以接受的，甚至陌生人之間也可以握手。故B正確。

50.What does striking in the fourth paragraph most probably mean?

A.Interesting to read.B.Easy to notice.C.Impossible to remember.D.Difficult to accept.【答案】B

【應(yīng)試指導(dǎo)】詞義猜測題。由最后一段可知，在美國和拉丁美洲，直視別人表示對對方的尊重，但是在亞洲國家，過長時(shí)間地直視別人是很不禮貌的。這表明目光接觸這種身勢語在不同的地區(qū)的含義是有很明顯的差異的。由此推測，strikin9一詞在這句話中的意思是“明顯的，顯著的”。故B正確。第Ⅱ卷(非選擇題，共45分)

Researchers have found that REM(rapid eye movement)sleep is important to human beings.This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence.The deeper a person’s sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.There are physical charges in the body to show that a person has changed from NREM(non-rapid eye movement)to REM sleep.Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep.It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.61.According to the passage, how often does REM sleep occur in one night?

Passage Two

The Mother Goose Stories, so well known to children all over the word, are commonly said to have been written by a little old woman for her grandchildren.According to some people, she lived in Boston, and her real name was Elizabeth Vergoose.Her son-in-law, a printer named Thomas Fleet, was supposed to have published the famous stories and poems for small children in 1719.However, no copy of this book has ever been found, and most scholars doubt the truth of this story—and doubt, moreover, that Mother Goose was ever a real person.They point out that the name is a direct translation of the French “Mere I’ Oye.” In 1697 the Frenchman Charles Perrault published the first book in which this name was used.The collection contains eight tales, including “Sleeping Beauty,” “Cinderella,” and “Puss in Boots.” But Perrault did not originate these stories;they were already quite popular in his day, and he only collected them.66.What is suppssed to have happened in 1719?

Elizabeth Vergoose wrote the first Mother Goose Stories.Thomas Fleet published the Mother Goose Stories.The Mother Goose Stories were translated into French.Charles Perrault published the first Mother Goose Stories.67.Most scholars consider Mother Goose to be _________.A.a real person B.a book written by a little old woman

C.a collection by Elizabeth Vergoose D.a translation from French

68.When Perrault published the first book in 1679, _______.no story of the book had been known to people

some stories of the book were already well known

few people were interested in the stories of the book

stories like “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella” became popular

69.The name used in the first book published in 1679 is supposed to have been _______.A.Mother Goose B.Mere I’ Oye C.Elizabeth Vergoose D.Charles Perrault

70.On the basis of this passage, what may be concluded about the real origin of stories “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella”?

They were invented by Elizabeth Vergoose.They were invented by Thomas Fleet.They were invented by Charles Perrault.Their writers are unknown.Passage Three

Banks are not ordinarily prepared to pay out all accounts;they rely on depositors(儲(chǔ)戶)not to demand payment all at the same time.If depositors should come to fear that a bank is not safe, that it cannot pay off all its depositors, then that fear might cause all the depositors to appear on the same day.If they did, the bank could not pay all accounts.However, if they did not all appear at once, then there would always be enough money to pay those who wanted their money when they wanted it.Mrs.Elsie Vaught has told us of a terrifying bank run that she experienced.One day in December of 1925 several banks failed to open in a city where Mrs.Vaught lived.The other banks expected a run the next day, and so the officers of the bank in which Mrs Vaught worked as a teller had enough money on hand to pay off their depositors.The officers simply told the tellers to pay on demand.The next morning a crowd gathered in the bank and on the sidewalk outside.The length of the line made many think that the bank could not possibly pay off everyone.People began to push and then to fight for places near the tellers’ windows, The power of the panic atmosphere was such that two tellers, though they knew that the bank was quite all right and could pay all depositors, drew their own money from the bank.Mrs Vaught says that she had difficulty keeping herself from doing the same.71.A bank run happens when _______.a bank is closed for one or more days

too many depositors try to draw out their money at one time

there is not enough money to pay all its depositors at one time

tellers of a bank take their own money from the bank

C.crowds of people D.inexperienced tellers

74.Which of the following did Mrs.Vaught say?

She know that the bank was not sound.She feared that too many depositors drawing their money would close the bank.She was not able to draw out her money.She was tempted to draw out her money.75.According to the passage, the actions of the depositors of Mrs.Vaught’s bank were affected mainly by the _______.ease with which they could get their money

confidence that Mrs.Vaught showed

failure of several other banks to open

confidence shown by other depositors of the bank

Passage Four

One of the greatest problems for those settlers in Nebraska in the last quarter of the previous century was fuel.Little of the state was forested when the first settlers arrived and it is probable that by 1880, only about one-third of the originally forested area remained, down to a mere 1 percent of the state’s 77,000 square miles.With wood and coal out of the question, and with fuel needed year-round for cooking, and during the harsh winter months for heating, some solution had to be found.Somewhat improbably, the buffalo provided the answer.Buffalo chips(干糞塊)were found to burn evenly, hotly, and cleanly, with little smoke and interestingly, no odor, Soon, collecting them became a way of life for the settlers’ children who would pick them up on their way to and from school, or take part in competitions designed to counteract their natural reluctance.Even a young man, seeking to impress the girl he wanted to marry, would arrive with a large bag of chips rather than with a box of candy or a bunch of flowers.76.What is the main topic of this passage?

The solution to the Nebraska settlers’ fuel problem.Life in Nebraska in the late ninteenth century.The imporance of the American buffalo.Deforestation in Nebraska in the late nineteenth century.77.Which of the following statements is NOT true?

Nebraska was not a densely-forested state even before the settlers arrived.The children enjoyed collecting the buffalo chips.The children spent a lot of time collecting the chips.Buffalo chips were satisfactory as a fuel.78.The passage implies that buffalo chips were needed _______.A.in greater amounts in summer B.in greater amounts in winter

C.only in summer D.only in winter

79.Which of the following does the author not express surprise at?

The children needed competitions to them.The buffalo chips gave off no smell.Buffalo chips were the answer to the settlers’ fuel problem.Young men took bags of buffalo chips to their girl friends.80.What’s the best title of the passage?

A.Early Settlers B.One Use of the Buffalo Chips

C.Nebraska’s Problems D.How Young Men Express Their Love for Girls
