Heavenly Island opens its doors to Chinese
When most people think of tropical islands, lined with white sandy beaches and bright blue seas, it is often the Caribbean or South Pacific that comes to mind. But for Chinese tourists who want a taste of paradise(天堂)on Earth there is a_new_place to consider.
Mauritius, an island lying off the southeast of Africa in the Indian Ocean, has just been added to China's list of tourist destinations. Rich in history, natural beauty and culture, the island has been a popular destination for the world's tourists for many years.
On December 15 a total of eight African countries were added to the list. The others are Tunisia, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zambia and the Seychelles.
The island has passed through the controlling hands of a number of European powers, including Dutch, French and British. In 1968, Mauritius won its independence.
At present, over half the population of Mauritius is Hindu and another fifth is Muslim. Both groups are descendants(后代) of workers brought to the island from India by the British. Some Chinese were also brought over to work. There are also descendants of African slaves and Franco Mauritians, the original settlers of the island.
One of the best things about the island is the food. There is a mouth watering mix of European, Chinese and Indian flavors (风味) and seafood is very popular. A typical Mauritian dinner might have Indian chicken curry(咖喱), Chinese pork, British roast beef and French style vegetables. Boiled rice is served with just about everything. All that is washed down with a plentiful supply of local beer.
The pleasant tropical climate and scenery provides the perfect setting to enjoy everything. The sea is full of colourful life that lives around the coral reef (珊瑚礁). This makes Mauritius a wonderful place for swimming and diving. The large number of interesting fish means it is also an exciting place for those who like to go fishing.
41. What does the phrase “a new place” in the first paragraph refer to
A. Caribbean B. South PacificC. Mauritius D. Africa
42. What attracts the world's tourists to visit Mauritius
A. Rich history. B. Natural beauty.C. Rich culture. D. A, B and C.
43. Mauritius hasn't been controlled by ______.
A. Indians B. Dutch C. French D. British
44. What makes Mauritius a wonderful place for swimming and diving
A. Colorful life around the coral reef.B. The pleasant tropical climate.
C. The beautiful scenery.D. The nice seafood.
四、书面表达(共1小题；满分20分)
阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
What ls the Best Preparation for Life
Some people say that the best preparation for life is learning to work with others and be cooperative. In life we are faced with many types of situations. Each situation requires us to behave in different ways. In school or work we may be faced with a large project which demands the cooperation of many individuals. In this instance，each person must be flexible，supportive and be willing to compromise because he is only a small part of a much larger machine.
Others take the opposite view and say that learning to be competitive is the best preparation. Being competitive also has a place in life. The desire to succeed and do better than others will motivate us to work hard on the job and study diligently in school. But competition has its limits.
[写作内容]
1. 以约30个词概括短文的要点；
2. 然后以约120个词就“人生最好的准备”这个主题发表你的看法，至少包括以下的内容要点：
a)我们生活在竞争与合作共生共存的时代，要与人相容(compatible)，合作共处；
b)今天的事业是集体的竞争，与他人相容，善于合作的人成功机会更大；
c)你对此有什么看法，为什么？
[写作要求]
你可以使用实例或其他论述方法支持你的论点，也可以参照阅读材料的内容但不能抄袭阅读材料中的句子。
一、1~5 C B D C B 6~10 B B C D D 11~15 B C C D C 16~17 C A D C C
二、 文章讲的是一个盲人乘客的故事。20道题的设置基本考查了学生对于文章的理解能力，和根据上下文理解单句的能力。期间也涉及到一些基本语法问题，比如从句，被动语态，固定搭配以及动词短语的选择。
21. D　要知道盲人是看不见的，所有的动作都是靠摸索的，其实这是常识问题，据此可知应该选择“feel”(摸索，感知)，而不应该是“有目的”地去“touch”(触碰)。
22. C　盲人陷入到黑暗的世界，这种表达在中文里面我们也使用，所以明显应该是“a world of darkness”。
23. B　单纯考查词汇，sink into hopelessness，描述人陷入到绝望之中，“sink”表示下沉，和人陷入绝望的状态是符合的。
24. B　be determined to do sth，下决心做某事，当然你也可以用 make up one's mind to do sth。
25. A　人残志不残，她想回到工作之中去，作返回来讲return 是一个不及物动词，所以选D。
26. D　考查形容词。Frightened表示恐惧。
27. A　volunteer表示志愿去帮助Susan，现在很流行志愿者，所以大家不会对这个词感到陌生。
28. C　Until在这里是连词，引导时间状语从句。状语从句是重点语法，大家要注意学习了。
29. C　accompany表示“陪伴”，既然Mark是来帮助Susan的，显然就来陪伴她的。
30. D　盲人失去的是 “sight”实力，其它的sense(感觉)还是存在的。
31. B　简单的词汇辨析题，盲人需要适应的是新的environment(环境)，而不是新的position(位置)等。
32. A　on one's own表示“靠某人自己”本文一直都是在表扬这位盲人的毅力和坚持，希望能够靠自己来维持自己的正常生活。
33. D　试想，拥抱自己的丈夫，而且是在分别的时候，感慨万千的时候，应该有的动作当然是 “tightly”(紧紧的)，而不是其它的类似于politely(礼貌的)。
34. B　在接受了别人的帮助后，Susan终于要独自一人登上旅程了。他们各自走各自的路，“separate”表示“分别的”，其实她的背后有很多默默支持她的人，显然不是 “lonely”(孤独的)这样的词。
35. D　take hold of(吸引)；take place of(代替)；take charge of(掌管)；take advantage of(利用)。
36. A　as usual(像往常一样)，表示经常发生的动作再次发生。
37. B　envy(嫉妒，羡慕)仔细阅读下面的文章，不难发现，司机是准备告诉Susan一个秘密。也就是要告诉她有很多人在默默地支持和关怀她。所以，根据上下文的理解，可以知道此刻司机是要表达一种羡慕嫉妒之情，也是对Susan的一种宽慰。
38. C　几个疑问词的选择，不难。
39. A　在过于的几个星期中，英文应该是 “for the past week” “next”表示的是下周，还没发生的事情是不可能用完成时的，而且 “for”＋一段时间，是现在完成时的时间状语标志。
40. C　sight表示“视力”。文中指的是，Susan虽然失去了视力，但是获得了更多宝贵的东西。
三、41. C 语境词义判断题，可用语境词义推断法来解。认真阅读分析原文不难发现，从第二节起全文是对该词的解释，因此该词指Mauritius。
42. D 细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。原文第二节 “Rich in history, natural beauty and culture, the island has been a popular destination for the world's tourists for many years.” 可知答案。
43. A 细节判断题，可用直接就题找文法来解。原文第四节 “The island has passed through the controlling hands of a number of European powers, including Dutch, French and British.” 可知答案。
44. A 推理判断题，可用逻辑推断法来解。由原文第七节 “The sea is full of colourful life that lives around the coral reef (珊瑚礁). This makes Mauritius a wonderful place for swimming and diving.” 可以推断出珊瑚礁周围的小生物使毛里求斯成为游泳和跳水的好地方。
四、 　　There are almost two opinions about preparation for life. One is learning to work and cooperate with others. The other is to compete because the desire to succeed and do better than others motivates to work hard.
We are living in the age of competition，cooperation and coexistence，so we should be compatible and cooperative with others. The business today is a collective competition，where some people are compatible with others. Those who work in closer cooperation with the other people can have a larger opportunity to succeed in the end.
Similarly，students' learning goals may be structured to promote cooperative，competitive，or individualistic efforts. In cooperation，students work against each other to achieve a goal. In competition there is a negative interdependence among goal achievements.
So I think too much desire to compete with others may become selfish and destructive. In order to succeed in life，we must learn to be both cooperative and competitive. The most important thing to learn in life is to know when to be cooperative and when to be competitive.
