“Oh, Beckham is so handsome, so cool, that I can’t help falling in love with
him!” or “What perfect skills he has!” Yeah, I 36
to some degree, though I
sometimes do want to 37 them how much they know about Beckham,
apart from his 38 and how much they know about football 39 scoring goals. It seems funny
that we are 40 for things, with which we are unfamiliar
or about which we are 41
but we all, my friends
as well as I, consider this one of life’s 42 . We need these pleasures to 43
our lives. But that
doesn’t amount to (等同于) craziness or nonsense. As an old saying 44 : “Don’t judge a book by its cover.”
We 45 not judge anything from its appearance.
We should all know, it is one’s good character and great __46 that make one a star and
unforgettable. Therefore we’d better say 47 about Beckham’s good looks. If we close our eyes, falling in deep 48 , we can find that the things that
move us to be really happy or sad have a 49 meaning. If we don’t go deeper and are
just satisfied with
50 things, sooner or later
we will find that we have not really gained anything because our first __51 has blinded and misled (误导) us, and we’ll remain ignorant (无知的) 52
we realize that and make
some changes. It is believed that thinking and going deeper than before is a 53 of great progress. If one day we are __54__
to go deeper into everything, no matter how much it pains us, we will __55__
prove how much we have grown up, how much more sensible, mature (成熟的), and intelligent (智慧的) we have become. 36. A. expect
B. agree C. hope D. think 37. A. ask B.
tell C. teach D. doubt 38. A. skills B. fame C. team

appearance 39. A. beside B. beyond C.

middle, and an end with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The
commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every
couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. “Buy Super
Clean Toothpaste.” “Drink Good Wet Root Beer.” “Fill up with Pacific Gas”. Only
if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you free
from the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now!” The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even
if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new
houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of
driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the
driver is particularly reckless (鲁莽的) or daring, the ride can be as thrilling (惊心动魄的) as a suspense (悬疑) story. Will the driver pass the
truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After
a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass
the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But
you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can
make you very thirsty between stops. The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will
soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat
of course ,has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you’ve sat with
your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap ,with your hands on the arm rest
even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at no more
ways to sit. 56. According to the passage, what do the passengers
usually see when they are on a long bus trip? A. Buses on the road.
B.
Films on television. C. Advertisements on the billboards. D.
Gas stations. 57. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To give the writer’s opinion about long bus trips. B. To persuade you to take a long bus trip. C. To explain how bus trips and television shows differ. D. To describe the billboards along the road. 58. The writer of this passage would
probably prefer ______________. A. bus drivers who are reckless B.
driving alone C. a television set on the bus
D.
no billboards along the road 59. The writer feels long bus rides are
like TV shows because ____________. A. the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road
are fun B. they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with
commercials in between C. the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on
buses D. both traveling and watching TV are not exciting. 60. The writer thinks that the end of the ride is
somewhat like the beginning because both are _________. A. exciting B.
comfortable C.
tiring D.
boring B Smile, when making an introduction. Every day we meet people in a number of business and social
situations. And the way we meet and greet them creates an impression. It’s
important to do so in a proper way, no matter whether you are introducing
yourself to someone, or introducing two people to each other. To keep you aware
of this, we have gathered tips on how to make a proper introduction. ◎Always stand
when making an introduction. When you are seated and someone comes up to
greet you, make the effort to stand up. By doing this, you show respect for
yourself and for the other person. ◎Always
maintain eye contact(接触) while making an introduction. Many people are not aware of the value of
this simple action. When you make eye contact you are giving a confident image. ◎Always
introduce a person of lesser authority(权威) to one of greater authority. The most important thing to remember
is to say the most important person’s name first. For example, when introducing your supervisor(管理者，领导) to a job candidate(候选人), you would give your
supervisor’s name first. “Bob Jones, may I introduce Susan Lee, who has just
graduated from ABC
University?” ◎In a situation
where rank(等级) is
unimportant, an introduction is based on sex and age. A man is presented to a
woman and a younger woman to an older woman. What if you find yourself in a situation
where you have forgotten the other person’s name? Start with a handshake and
reintroduce yourself. By doing this, you will usually cause the other person to
do the same. However, if the other person does not take your suggestion, it is OK
simply to apologize and let the person know that you cannot remember her or his
name. This is not the ideal situation, of course, but it does happen to all of
us. The other person should be forgiving. 61. The article gives you advice on
_________. A. how to make a self-introduction
B. how to make a proper introduction C. how to leave a good impression on people D. how to greet people in social situations 62. According to the passage, people will think you are
______ if you don’t make eye contact with them. A. not honest
B.
not confident
C.
shy D.
unfriendly 63. What should you do when you introduce a
new worker to your boss? A. You should not give your boss’ name.
B. You should give the
new worker’s name first. C. You needn’t give your boss’ name. D. You should give your boss’ name first. 64. If you forget the other person’s name,
you’d better ________. A. ask him/her directly
B. apologize first and then ask him/her C. shake hands with the person and reintroduce yourself D. consider his age first
C We have two
daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four. Last Sunday evening, we invited some people home for dinner. I
dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join
Mommy in answering the door when the bell rang. Mommy would introduce them to
the guests, and then they would take the guests’ coats upstairs and put them on
the bed in the second bedroom. The guests
arrived. I introduced my two daughters to each of them. The adults were nice
and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids. Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the younger
one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smile. They said she was a remarkable
girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age. I thought to
myself that we adults usually make a big “to do” over the younger one
because she’s the one who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of
intentions. But we seldom
think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that
Kristen would feel she was being outshined. I was about to serve dinner when I
realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes. I ran upstairs and found
her in the bedroom, crying. I said, “What are you doing here, my dear?” She turned to
me with a sad expression and said, “Mommy, why don’t people like me the way
they like my sister? Is it because I’m not pretty? Is that why they don’t say
nice things about me as much?” I tried to
explain to her, kissing and hugging her to make her feel better. Now whenever I
visit a friend’s home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first. 65. The underlined expression “make a big ‘to
do’ over”(paragraph 4) means_____.
A. show much
concern about
B. have a
special effect on
C. list jobs to
be done for
D. do good
things for 66. We can conclude (得出结论) from the passage that_____.
A. parents
should pay more attention to the elder children
B. the younger
children are usually more easily hurt
C. people
usually like the younger children more
D. adults should
treat children equally 67. The guests praised Kelly for carrying
coats upstairs because of her_____.
A. beautiful
hair B. pretty clothes C. lovely smile D. young age 68. Kristen felt sad and cried
because_____. A. the guest gave her more coats to carry B. she didn’t look as pretty as Kelly C. the guests praised her sister more than her D. her mother didn’t introduce her the guests
D Since life is short and the world is wide, the sooner you start
exploring it, the better. Soon enough the time will come when you are too tired
to move farther than the terrace (台阶) of the best hotel. Go now. No need, you may say, to
tell that. But what I do need to tell you is that you will meet with a
surprising amount of opposition(反对) the moment you try to set out. Rubbish, you will reply. More
people go abroad nowadays than ever before; never has travel, particularly
among the young, been more strongly accepted in international exchanges.
Perhaps not: but none of this, my dear young friends, is travel. Travel is not
going on a round coach trip for $ 67 in
all, or spending ten days at a hotel by the sea. Travel is when you want to see
how much money you have and then set out, alone or with chosen friends, to make
an unhurried journey to a distant goal without a set date for your return. Real travel, then, is
independence in action, and is not liked by most parents. They don’t mind your
going in a school party to Athens
because they know just where you are and when you’ll be back, and they can
therefore permit you the imagination of freedom without for one second letting
you beyond their control. But what they cannot bear(忍受) is that you should travel all on
your own, without giving them your address and return date. In fact, their
fears are quite reasonable because that shows how much they love you. So in
order to enjoy real travel and at the same time put your parents’ mind at ease,
it would be really important for you to keep some proper advice in mind. 69. According to the passage, you should
start travel right now because _______. A. travel
broadens your mind B. all your
travel in the past is not real travel C. time flies
and the world is large D. it’s better
to start exploring the world when you are young 70. Which statement is TRUE according to the
passage? A. People travel
more than before. B. Young people
are encouraged to travel abroad. C. Going on a
round coach trip for $67 doesn’t mean real travel. D. Educational
visits should not be encouraged, as they are not real travel. 71. Your parents allow you to travel in a school
party because ________. A. they want you
to be truly free B. you are still
under their control C. they don’t
have time to travel with you D.
they know it’s good for you 72.
According to the writer, when
you do real traveling, you should ________. A. never mind
how worried your parents are B. give your
parents your address and return date C. tell your
parents details about your travel D. not let your
parents worry about you
E When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to
let go of your anger. But forgiveness (原谅) is possible, and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical
and mental health. Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive report
more energy, better appetite (胃口) and better sleep patterns. “People who forgive show less anger and
more hopefulness,” says Dr Frederic Luskin, who wrote
the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help save on the wear and tear on
our system and allow people to feel more energetic (精力充沛).” So when someone has hurt you, calm yourself first. Take a couple of
breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in
nature, someone you love. Don’t wait for an apology. “Many times the person who
hurt you may never think of apologizing,” says Dr Luskin.
“They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way.
So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time.”
Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of
the person who upset you. Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the
person who brought you pain. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and
kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person’s
perspective (视角，看法). You
may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance (无知), fear and even love. To gain perspective,
you may want to write a letter to yourself from that person’s point of view. 73. The text is mainly written to explain
________. A. how to keep
yourself from being hurt B. how to stay
mentally healthy C. how and when
to remain clam D. why and how
to pardon others 74. According to the writer, what is the
right way to calm down after being hurt? A. Try to figure
out why you get hurt B. Write a
letter to the person who hurt you. C. Persuade
yourself to accept what others have done to you. D. Think about
pleasant things and forget about the hurt. 75. Dr Luskin
advises us not to wait for an apology after being hurt because ________. A. we are not
patient enough B. we’d feel
worse accepting others’ apology C. people seldom
want to apologize D. people don’t
mean it when they apologize 第II卷 写作 (共四节，满分45分) 第一节

lady and her husband stepped off the train in Boston. They walked without an appointment（预约）into the outer 36 of Harvard’s president. But they were 37 by his secretary and kept waiting. For
hours, the secretary took no notice of them, 38 that the couple would finally become 39 and go away. But they didn’t. The
secretary finally decided to disturb the president, though 40 . A
few minutes later, the president walked towards the couple with a 41 face. The lady told him, “We had a son
that 42 Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard.
He was 43 here. But about a year ago, he was
accidentally killed. My husband and I would like to 44 a memorial（纪念物）to him, somewhere on campus.” The
president wasn’t 45 . Instead, he was shocked. “Madam,” he
said, “we can’t put up a statue for every person who studied at Harvard and
died. If we did, this 46 would look like a cemetery（墓地）,” “Oh, no,” the lady 47 quickly. “We don’t want to put up a
statue. We would like to give a 48 to Harvard.” The president rolled his
eyes and 49 at the couple and then exclaimed, ” A
building! Do you have any 50 how much a building costs? We have spent
over ＄7,500,000 on the
campus building at Harvard.” For a moment the lady was silent. The president
was 51 , because he could get rid of them now.
Then the lady turned to her husband and said quietly, “Is that all it costs to
start a 52 ? Why don’t we just start our own?” Her
husband nodded. 53 their offer was turned down, Mr. and Mrs.

suggests that very young children who watch a lot of television may have
attention problems later in school. Children with
attention problems cannot sit still or control their actions. They talk too
much, lose things, forget easily and are not able to finish tasks. People with
attention problems may suffer a condition known as Attention Deficit（缺乏） Disorder（紊乱）, or A.D.D. Experts say the
cause of A.D.D involves chemicals in the brain. Teachers say many children in
the United States
are showing signs of the disorder. Some education researchers have been saying
for years that watching television at a very young age could change the normal
development of the brain. For example, they say that children who watch a lot
of television are not able to sit and read for an extended period of time. The new study
tested the idea that television watching by very young children is linked to
attention problems by the age of seven. It involved more than
one-thousand-three-hundred children. There were two groups of children, ages
one and three. Researchers at Children’s Hospital and Regional
Medical Center
in Seattle, Washington reported the results in the
medical magazine. They asked the parents how often the children watched
television. The parents also described their children’s actions at the age of
seven using a method that can tell if someone suffers attention deficit
disorders. The children who
watched a lot of television at an early age were most likely to have attention
problems. Every hour of watching television increased the chances of having
attention problems by about ten per cent. The researchers
say that all the children with attention problems might not have A.D.D. But
they still could face major learning problems in school. The findings support
advice by a group of children’s doctors that children under the age of two
should not watch television. One of the
researchers said there are other reasons why children should not watch
television. Earlier studies have linked it with children becoming too fat and
too aggressive(likely to fight). Other experts say the new study is important,
but more work needs to be done to prove the findings and better explain the
cause and effect. 56. We can infer from the passage that
___________________________. A.
Children who watch a lot of TV don’t know anything at school. B.
Children who watch a lot of TV know more about the world than other children. C.
Usually Americans watch a lot of TV D.
Americans are facing serious problems now. 57. According to the passage, it is true
except that ___________________. A.
It might have taken the researchers 4 to 6 years to do the test. B.
Children shouldn’t watch TV for about three reasons. C.
If a child of 7 years old watches TV 3 hours a day, he is thirty percent more
likely to have attention
problems than those who watch no television. D.
Scientists are still studying the cause and effect of the problem 58. We can learn from the passage that
___________________ A.
Some students with no A.D.D may have learning problems B.
No students with attention problems has A. D. D C.
No students with attention problems has learning problems D.
Some students with A.D.D do well at school 59. The best title of this passage should
be _________________. A.
Attention Deficit Disorder B.
An Education problem----Television C.
Television and Attention Problems D.
Children and Television B “Dutch” expressions heard in American English
were first used in the 17th century. That was a time of fierce
competition between England
and Holland. At
that time, the British used “Dutch” as a word for something bad, or false. A
Dutch agreement was one made between men who had drunk too much alcohol. Dutch
leave was what a soldier took when he left his base without permission. Some of these old expressions are still used
today with a little different meaning. Long ago, a Dutch treat or to go Dutch was
a dinner at which the invited guests were expected to pay for their own share
of food and drink. Now, Dutch treat means that when friends go out to have fun,
each person pays his own share. Another common expression heard a few years
ago was “In Dutch”. If someone told you that you were in Dutch, they meant that
you were in trouble. Some of the Dutch expressions heard in
American English have nothing to do with the Dutch people at all. In the
seventeen hundreds, Germans who moved to the United States often were called
Dutch. During the American Civil War, supporters of the northern side in the
central state of Missouri
were called Dutch, because many of them were German settlers. President
Theodore Roosevelt once noted that anything foreign and non-English was called
Dutch. 60. Why
does the word “Dutch” often have a negative (not good) meaning in English? A. Because
in the 17th century, the Dutch were timid (胆小的) B. Because
in the 17th century, the Dutch often drank a lot of alcohol. C. Because
in the 17th century, the Dutch often fought with the British. D. Because
in the 17th century, the Dutch didn’t like to pay for others. 61. If one
of your friends collects 60 yuan from you to go to
have a meal together, you can use “_____”. A. A
Dutch
B.
Go Dutch C. In
Dutch
D.
Dutch leave 62. Which
of the following statements is true? A. The
original meaning of “Dutch” refers to the people in the British. B. “Dutch”
sometimes means all that is non-English in American English. C. The
Dutch uncles are often very severe. D. “Dutch”
expressions in English didn’t come from the Dutch at all. 63.
What’s the passage mainly about? A. Telling
us that “Dutch” is not a good word. B. Showing
that “Dutch” means differently between the British and the American C. Telling
us there was fierce competition between England
and Holland. D. Helping
us enlarge the knowledge about the word “Dutch”. C Composition classes at George Mason teach
writing as a process. Teachers there ask students to use writing not simply as
a way of communicating a paper, for example, you may go through the processes
of discovery, reading, revising, and editing. Many teachers introduce their students to
techniques which use writing to lead to thinking. Often, as thinkers, we don’t
know (or remember) everything that we do really know. Writing helps us to
discover what we know, and work out what we need to know. Teachers there may
begin or end a class with a wring exercise or ask you to prepare to write a
paper through a series of exercises. You may suddenly meet free-writing, where you
are asked to write your unedited thoughts on a particular topic, idea or experience
for a fixed period. This technique can often help an essay or other work become
more successful. Brainstorming is a more focused technique during which you
consciously note all your ideas, questions, facts and figures about a topic.
Some teachers may ask you to write poems or imagine your experiences as you
change your place in time or space. In writing to learn, you discover your
destination (your new ideas) as you write. Most teachers ask students to read each
other’s drafts in classroom workshop. Not all of your reviewers will agree
about your paper. As a writer, you need to decide which suggestions would help
you communicate your ideas most clearly. 64. The
whole time to complete a piece of writing is also ___. A. the
processes of discovery, reading, revising, and editing B. the most
important process of exam C. one
period to be used for watching D. an
important period of having a short rest 65. We
can find that writing____. A. is the
base of reading B. is the
only way to practice in a school C. is both
a way of communicating, a way of discovering and developing new ideas D. is the
best way of teaching 66. The
author’s main topic in this text is that ____. A. most
teachers ask students to read before writing B.
free-writing is a hard task in classroom C. writing
a paper through a series of exercises is the best way D. writing
is a process of discovery, creating and developing new ideas D It is often said that most
Americans vote with their wallets, and so a voter’s guide to where the two
presidential competitors stand on taxes certainly comes in handy. Over the past four years, President Bush has
twice signed laws reducing individual tax rates on income in all groups, and he
has repeatedly called on Congress to make these tax cuts for long, saying
failure to do so would have the same effect with a tax hike and threaten
prospects for a strong economic recovery. Congressional analysts say making the tax
cuts for long would cost about $13 trillion over the next 10 years. For his part, Sen.John
Kerry wants to continue Bush’s tax relief for lower and middle-income earners,
but he suggests canceling tax cuts for Americans earning more than $200,000 a year, and he says
he’ll use the extra money to provide money for new policies, like healthcare
reform. A married couple with two children and an
annual family income of $250,000 can expect to pay $1,300 more annually in
taxes, according to a Deloitte Tax LLP analysis. The family’s saving under the
existing tax law is $5,380, compared with tax rates that existed in 2000. The same family, if it had a family income of
$180,000, would see no change in their tax bill under Kerry’s tax plan
according to Deloitte’s analysis. “The battleground for the two (tax) plans is
how Bush and Kerry treat families and individuals with income over $200,000,”
said Clint Stetch, director of tax policy at Deloitte
Tax LLP. 67.
American voters mostly care for ________ when they vote. A. the
income from the government B. the
taxes they have to pay C. the
ability of the presidential rivals D. economic
recovery 68. What
does the underlined phrase “to do so” mean in the second paragraph? A. To vote
with their wallet B. To sign
legislation reducing individual tax rates on income in all groups C. To make
the individual tax rates on income cut permanent D. To
amount to a tax hike 69. If
Kerry’s tax plan is approved, a household income of $500,000 will probably pay about __________ more annually in
tax. A.
$2,600 B.
$5,380 C. $1,300 D. $2,000 70. There
is no doubt that ________ would pay more under Kerry’s tax plan. A.
lower-income families B.
middle-income families C.
higher-income families D.
all families E Stavanger is located in the area Rogaland in the south-west coast of Norway. The people
that live here are still arguing whether they belong to the south of the
country or if they can regard themselves as true westerners. So far they have
not been able to reach a conclusion. The history of the city is long, for
example, the leading church in the middle of Stavanger (Domkirken) dates back to 1125 if I’m not mistaken. This old
church today is one of the sights in Stavanger. No, it is not as big as
Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) or other important churches in the big
European cities. It is a small leading church and the most unique thing is that
it is built in both Roman and Gothic（哥特式）style. The reason for this is of
course that the church was put to fire and it took quite a long time to finish
the project. But today it is located in the middle of town and lots of people
get married here every summer. My
wife is from south Africa
and the first time in July she came to Norway. She was very surprised to
find that Norway
was green and warm. It has to be said that the summer she came here was an
unusual warm summer. One of the great disadvantages of living in Stavanger
is the unpredictable weather. It has been said that we can have 4 seasons in
one day. Well, I don’t know about that. I can agree to 3 seasons in one day
because we don’t have much of a winter here anyway. But when the weather is
great in July and August that is when I love Stavanger the most.
So what is there to see here? Well, I would recommend a bit. There are two
places that are great: Kjerag and Prekestolen
(Pulpit rock). 71. What’s
the problem of the people in Stavanger? A. Which
part do they belong to? B. Which
country do they live in? C. What
race do they belong to? D. When
will they become westerners? 72. Which
one is NOT a suitable statement about the leading church in the middle of Stavanger? A. It dates
back to 1125 B. It is
the leading and the biggest one in all the European cities. C. It is
one of the sights in Stavanger. D. Lots of
people get married in the old church every summer now. 73. The
church in the middle of Stavanger is quite different; the
reason is that ________. A. it is
one of the newest churches in Europe B. people
no longer go to this leading church C. it is
built by local workers D. the
church was exposed to fire and it took quite a long time to finish the project 74. That
July in Stawanger the author’s wife found was green
and warm, but____. A. it is
the hottest time of one year B. every
traveler always likes choosing this time to stay in Stavanger C. the
weather in Stavanger
is unpredictable and there are 4 seasons in one day D. it is
spring in Norway 75. The
author’s favorite time in Stavanger is _____according to his
statement. A.
winter
B.
July and August C.
summer

time and energy proving that we are right and others are wrong. Many people
believe that it is their job to 36 others how their positions, statements,
and points of view are incorrect, and 37 in doing so, the person they are correcting is going to
somehow appreciate it, or at least learn 38 . Wrong! Think about it. Have you ever been
corrected by someone and said to him, “Thank you so much for showing me that I’m
wrong and you’re right.” 39 has anyone you know ever 40 you when you corrected him, or made
yourself “right” at his 41 ? Of course not. The truth is, all
of us 42 to be corrected. We all want our
positions to be 43 and understood by others. Being listened to and heard is one of
the greatest 44 of the human heart. And those who learn
to 45 are the most loved and respected. Those
who are in the 46 of correcting others are often resented(憎恨) and 47 . A wonderful way of becoming more peaceful and
loving is to practise allowing others the joy of
being 48 ---give them the glory. 49 correcting. When someone says, “I really
feel it’s important to …” instead of jumping in and saying, “No, it’s more
important to …” simply let it 50 and allow their statements to 51 . The people in your life will
become less defensive and more 52 . They will appreciate you more than
you could ever have 53 possible.
You’ll discover the joy of joining in and witnessing other people’s 54 , which is far more 55 than a battle of egos (自我). Starting today, let others be “right” most
of time! 36. A.show B. ask C. suggest

You’ve heard it repeatedly: Make sure you drink at least eight glasses of water
per day. The key words are "at least", because, unless you are a
child, you need more water than that. The rule is, for every 50 pounds of body
weight you carry, drink one quart of bottled or filtered (过滤的) water per day. The average person weighs
150 pounds, so they should drink three quarts per day. A 200 pounds person
should drink a full gallon per day. Athletes should drink even more than that.
Follow these and you’ve adopted one of the most important health habits.
Our bodies are mostly water, and water is essential to our every function.
Drink the appropriate amount, and everything is much more likely to function at
the best levels. If you don’t drink enough water, over the short term you will
experience tiredness, dry skin, headaches and constipation (便秘); over the longer term, every body function
will degrade more quickly. It really is as simple as that.
Things get a bit more complicated in what type of water to drink. Bottled water
and filtered water are both good options. Do not drink tap water or distilled
water (蒸馏水).Bottled water should be bottled
in clear glass containers, not the plastic containers that transfer far too
many chemicals into the water. Filtered water can be obtained through low-cost
filters.
Tap water should be avoided because it contains chlorine (氯) and may contain fluoride (氟化物), which is poisonous and can have terrible
consequences for the body. Distilled water should also be avoided because it
can burn up your body of necessary minerals. It has been tied to hair loss,
which is often associated with certain mineral lack.
Finally, drink water at room temperature if possible, as ice-cold water can
harm your stomach. 56.
What’s the meaning of the underlined word “degrade”?
A. Improve. B. Strengthen. C.
Reduce.
D. Recover. 57. What
kinds of water are proper for drinking?
A. Tap water and bottled water. B.
Tap water and distilled water.
C. Bottled water and filtered water. D.
Distilled water and filtered water. 58.
What’s the main reason that distilled water isn’t recommended to drink?
A. It isn’t clean enough to drink. B.
It leads the body to lack certain minerals.
C. It contains too many chemicals. D.
It contains fluoride. 59. Which
of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It is harmful to drink plenty of icy water.
B. One may feel tired due to lack of water for a short time.
C. The water in plastic containers is safe to drink.
D. The water with chlorine is not suitable to drink. After
almost 30 years of arguing that a black hole swallows up everything that falls
into it, British astrophysicist (天体物理学家) Stephen Hawking moved
backward last week. The
world-famous writer of “Brief History of Time” said he and other scientists had
got it wrong. “I’ve
been thinking about this problem for the last 30 years, and I think I now have
the answer to it,” said Hawking. “A black hole only appears to form but later
opens up and set free information about what fell inside. So we can be sure of
the past and can predict the future.” The
findings could help solve the “black hole information paradox（似是而非的观点）”, an important puzzle in modern physics. A black hole is an area in
space where matter is under such pressure that even light can not escape from
its gravitational pull(引力). But, exactly what happens
there has long puzzled scientists. Black holes occur when a
powerful star burns up its nuclear fuel and gravity forces it to break down in
on itself. The great weight of the star’s outer layers moves in towards its
center. The force of gravity keeps nearly all light from escaping and nothing
inside can be seen from the outside. The star actually disappears
from the universe into a point of infinite density（高密度）. That is a place where the laws of general relativity that govern space
and time break down. Hawking has devoted most of his life to
studying these questions. At the beginning, cosmologists
believed the holes were like a “universal vacuum (真空) cleaner”, sucking up everything in their path. Hawking revolutionized the study of black
holes when he proved, in 1976 that, under the strange rules of quantum physics（量子物理）, when black holes form they send out energy
and lose mass in the process. In thinking up this so-called “Hawking
radiation”, the Cambridge
mathematician also created one of the biggest puzzles in physics. These particles (粒子), he said, contained no information about what has been occurring inside
the black hole, or how it formed. Under his theory, once the black hole
disappears, all the information within it is lost. 60. What’s the importance of Hawking’s new findings? A. They could help solve
the puzzle about black holes. B. They have solved the
mystery of “black holes”. C. We can now know what is
going on inside “black holes”. D. Scientists have already
predicted the future of “black holes” now. 61. What’s the meaning of the underlined word
“cosmologist” (in Paragraph 9)? A. A person who studies the
universe and its origin and development. B. A person who studies the
stars and their development. C. A person who travels in
a spacecraft. D. A person who studies the
position of the stars and the movements of the planets. 62. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Hawking has now
studied black holes for more than 40 years. B. During
the course of the black hole’s forming the enormous weight of the star’s center
moves into the outer layers. C. Almost nothing can
escape from the gravitational pull of the black hole. D. Scientists have been
thinking the black hole contains no information. 63. What would be the best title for the
passage? A. The Formation of the
Black Hole B.
Black Hole Information Paradox C. Black Hole Mystery D.
The Cause of the Black Hole If you’re a parent of a student
who will go to college, two questions have probably been keeping you up at
night: First, how can I help my child get into a college? Second, I wonder how
much I could pay for it? You’re on your own when it comes to footing the
bill, but college consultants may be able to help with the college part. 1. Get friendly with professors When you visit
colleges, make a point of speaking to a professor or two in your favorite
department. “You want to show a college that you’re not just applying because
it’s a name. You have a particular reason for applying,”Hernandez
says. Taking something specific a professor says is a good way for a student to
get noticed. 2. Prepare for application essay “A lot of people believe the
application doesn’t matter, and that the school is just going to look at grades
and test scores,” Hernandez says. But it does, especially the college essay. To
prepare, students should read some books on writing the college application
essay. 3. Open your mouth “In the interview, feel free
to speak out your mind,” Hernandez says. “If they ask you about your classes,
don’t just list them. Answer in
detail. Try to speak out your passion for the classes.” 4. Be creative with your high
school choices Colleges are looking for students
who actively pursue their interests. High school students who simply take the
prescribed list won’t make much of
an impression. So branch out(扩展范围). “If, for
example, you really liked languages and hated math, the college teachers would
much rather see that you dropped math and took an extra language class at a
community college,” Hernandez says. 5. Get a “real” job “If you come from a rich
family, make sure you have some work experience other than summer camp or
babysitting ―all the easy jobs that college teachers don’t consider real
jobs,” Hernandez advises. The tougher the job is, the better. 64.
According to the passage, we can infer that Hernandez may be _________. A. a parent of a high school
student B.
a top college consultant C. the author of the
passage D.
a high school student 65. The
underlined phrase “footing the bill” in Paragraph 1 means ________. A. borrowing money B.
using up money C. paying off debts D.
paying for the tuition (学费) 66. From
the advice given by Hernandez, we know that ________. A. in the interview, you
should keep silent B. if you really liked
English and hated math, it was a better choice for you to take an extra
language class C. a good way for a student
to get noticed is speaking to a famous professor D. the application is not
important 67. In
the last paragraph, a “real” job refers to ________. A. work experience B.
summer camp C.
babysitting
D. going hiking “I've never met a human worth
cloning,” says cloning expert Mark Westhusin from his
lab at Texas A&M University.
“It's a stupid effort.” That's an interesting choice of adjective, coming from
a man who has spent millions of dollars trying to clone a 13-year-old dog named
Missy. So far, he and his team have not succeeded, though they have cloned two
cows and expect to clone a cat soon. They just might succeed in cloning Missy
this spring - or perhaps not for another 5 years. Westhusin’s experience with cloning animals
leaves him upset by all this talk of human cloning. In three years of work on
the Missy project, using hundreds upon hundreds of dog's eggs, the A&M team
has produced only a dozen or so embryos (胚胎) carrying Missy’s DNA. None have survived the transfer to a surrogate (代孕的) mother. The wastage of eggs and the many
aborted (夭折) fetuses (胎) may be acceptable when you’re dealing with
cats or bulls, he argues, but not with humans. “Cloning is incredibly inefficient,
and also dangerous,” he says. Contrary to some media reports,
Missy is not dead. The owner wants a twin to carry on Missy’s fine qualities
(good natured, supersmart etc.) after she does die. In a statement of purpose, Missy’s owner
and the A&M team say they are “both looking forward to studying the ways
that her clones differ from Missy.” Westhusin is cautious(谨慎的)
about his work. He knows that even if he gets a dog pregnant, the
offspring(后代), should they survive, will face
the problems like immature lungs and heart and weight problems~ “Why would you
ever want to clone humans,” Westhusin asks, “when
we’re not even close to getting it worked out in animals yet?” 68. By “stupid
effort” (Line 2, Para. 1), Westhusin means to say
that ________. A. animal cloning is not worth the
effort at all B. animal cloning is absolutely
impractical C. human cloning should be done
selectively D. human cloning is a foolish and
dangerous action 69. What
does the first paragraph tell us about Westhusin’s
dog cloning project? A. Its success is already in
sight. B.
Its result remains uncertain. C. It can’t escape failing
completely. D.
It is progressing smoothly. 70. By
cloning Missy, Mark Westhusin hopes to ________. A. study the possibility of
cloning humans B. search for ways to change its
temperament(气质) C. examine the reproductive system
of the dog species D. find out the differences between
Missy and its clones 71. We
learn from the passage that animal clones are likely to have ________. A. a bad temper B.
immune deficiency C. organs of imperfect form and
function D. an abnormal
shape I had an experience some years ago
which taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation
worse by blaming themselves. One January, I had to officiate at(主持) two funerals for two elderly women in my
community. Both had died after a long and full life --- “full of years,” as the
Bible would say. At the first home, the son of the
deceased woman said to me, “If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and
snow, she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.” At the second
home, the son of the other deceased woman said, “If only I hadn’t insisted on
my mother’s going to Florida,
she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the sudden change of
climate, was more than she could stand. It’s my fault that she’s dead.” When
things don’t turn out as we would like them to, we tend to think that had we
done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Priests
know that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. They
believe that the opposite course --- keeping Mother at home, postponing the
operation---would have turned out better. There seem to be two elements
involved in our readiness to feel guilt. The first is our need to believe that the
world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for
everything that happens. That leads us to find patterns and connections both
where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds. The second element is the notion
that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen.
The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. A baby comes to think that
the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it.
He wakes up in the morning and summons(召唤) the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to
attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people
change him. Very often, we do not completely outgrow that infantile(婴儿时期) notion that our wishes cause things to
happen. 72. The
author had to conduct the two women’s funerals probably because ________. A.
he wanted to console (安慰) the two
families B.
he was an official from the community C.
he had great sympathy for the deceased D.
he was priest(牧师) of the local church 73.
People feel guilty for the deaths of their loved ones because ________ A. they couldn’t find a better way
to express their sadness B. they believe that they were
responsible C. they had ignored the natural
course of events D. they didn’t know things often
turn out in the opposite direction 74. In the context of
the passage, “... the world makes sense” (Line 2, Para,
4) probably means that ________. A. everything in the world is
predetermined B. the world can be explained in
different ways C. there’s an explanation for
everything in the world D. we have to be sensible in order
to understand the world 75.
People have been made to believe since infancy(婴儿时期) that ________. A. everybody is at their command (命令, 要求) B. life and death is an unsolved
mystery C. every story should have a happy
ending D. their wishes are the cause of everything
