A
We know that many animals do not stay in one place. Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded. When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration(迁移)is probably the migration of the fish, which is called “salmon”. This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies there. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mice. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobsters(龙虾). Every year, when the season of bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go. So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other times we don’t. Maybe living things just like to travel.

In the United States 84 colleges now accept just women. Most of them were established in the 19th century; they were designed to offer women the education they could not receive anywhere else. At that time major universities and colleges accepted only men. In the past 20 years many young women have chosen to study at colleges that accept both men and women. As a result some women's colleges decided to accept men students too. Others, however, refused to change. Now these schools are popular again. The president of Trinity College in Washington, D. C. said that by the end of the 1980s women began to recognize that studying at the same school with men did not mean women were having an equal chance to learn. The president of Smith College in Massachusetts says a women's college permits women to choose classes and activities freely. For example, she says that in women's college a higher percentage of students studies mathematics than in a college with both men and women .Educational experts say men students in the United States usually speak in class more than women students do. In a women's college, women feel freer to say what they think. Women's schools also bring out leadership capabilities in many women. Women are represented everywhere. For example, at a women's college every evening, office is held by a woman. Recent studies reportedly show that American women who went to Women's colleges are more likely to hold successful jobs later in life.

Informal conversation is an important part of any business relationship. Before you start a discussion, however, make sure you understand which topics are suitable and which topics are considered taboo in a particular culture. Latin Americans enjoy sharing information about their local history, art, and customs. Expect questions about your family, and be sure to show pictures of your children. You may feel free to ask similar questions of your Latin American friends. The French think of conversation as an art form, and they enjoy the value of lively discussions as well as disagreements. For them, arguments can be interesting--and they can cover pretty much or any topic--as long as they occur in a respectful and intelligent manner. In the United States, business people like to discuss a wide range of topics, including opinions about work, family, hobbies, and politics. In Japan, China, and Korea, however, people are much more private. They do not share much about their thoughts, feelings, or emotions because they feel that doing so might take away from the harmonious business relationship they're trying to build. Middle Easterners are also private about their personal lives and family matters. It is considered rude, for example, to ask a businessman from Saudi Arabia about his wife or children. As a general rule, it's best not to talk about politics or religion with your business friends. This can get you into trouble, even in the United States, where people hold different views. In addition, discussing one's salary is usually considered unsuitable. Sports is typically a friendly subject in most parts of the world, although be careful not to criticize a national sport. Instead, be friendly and praise your host's team.
60. The author considers politics and religion __________.
A. cheerful topics B. taboo C. rude topics D. topics that can never be talked about
61. Which is typically a friendly topic in most places according to the author
A. Sports. B. Children. C. Personal feelings. D. Families.
62. Why are people from Asia more private in their conversation with others
A. They don't want to talk with others much.
B. They don't want to have their good relationship with others harmed by informal conversation.
C. They are afraid to argue with their colleagues.
D. They want to keep their feelings to themselves.

Have you ever imagined what kind of car we will be driving in 2020 It will be rather different from the type we know today, with the next 20 years bringing greater change than the past 50. The people who will be designing the models of tomorrow believe that environmental problems may well accelerate(促进,加快) the pace of the car’s development. Today they are students on the transport design course at London’s Royal College of Art.
Their vision of a machine with three wheels instead of four is electrically powered, environmentally clean, and able to drive itself along “intelligent” roads equipped with built-in(内置的) power supplies. Future cars will pick up their fuel during long journeys from a power source built into the road, or store it in small quantities for traveling in the city.
Instead of today’s seating arrangements-two in front, two or three behind, all facing forward-the 2010 car will have a versatile(多方向的) inside with adults and children in a family circle.
This view of the future car is based on a much more sophisticated(复杂的) road system, with strips built into motorways to supply power to vehicles passing along them. Cars will not need drivers, because computers will provide safe driving control and route finding. All the driver will have to do is to say where to go and the computer will do the rest. It will become impossible for cars to crash into one another. The technology already exists for the car to become a true automobile.
63. A future car will use electrical power, because it is __________. .
A. safer B. cheaper C. cleaner D. faster
64. A future car will have all the following features(特点) EXCEPT ________. .
A. being three-wheeled B. running without anyone in it
C. driving along special roads D. with a versatile seating arrangement
65. What is the main idea of the text
A. Future cars will be completely different from the automobiles we know today.
B. The design of future cars will be more sophisticated.
C. Because of the new type of cars, our future environment will become cleaner.
D. The road system will become more sophisticated than it is today.

Happy birthday! Do birthday really make people happy Of course they do.Birthday celebrate the day when we were born.Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggest another year of growth and maturity(成熟)—or so we hope.We all like to imagine that we are getting wiser and not just older.Most of us enjoy seeing the wonder of growth in others, as well.For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud.For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process.But growing old That is a different story.
Growing old is not exactly for people in youth-oriented(以年轻人为中心)American culture.Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young.As the old saying goes, “You’re young as you feel.” Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old.People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom.But Americans seem to favor those that are young, or at least “young at heart”.
Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything but golden.Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just to get by.Retirement at the age of 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income.Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference.Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, medical care, and housing.Some even experience age discrimination(歧视).American sociologist Pat Moore once dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets.She was often treated rudely--even cheated and robbed.However, dressed as a young person, she received much more respect.
Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing fast.Why People are living longer.Fewer babies are being born.And middle-aged “baby boomers” are rapidly entering the group of the elderly.America may soon be a place where wrinkles(皱纹)are “in”.Marketing experts are ready noticing this growing group of consumer.

Grammar rules of subject-verb agreement:
主谓一致指“人称”和“数”方面的一致关系。一般情况下,主谓之间的一致关系由以下三个原则支配:
语法一致原则 (grammatical concord)
意义一致原则 (notional concord)
就近原则 (principle of proximity)
(一)语法一致原则
用作主语的名词词组中心词和谓语动词在单、复数形式上的一致,就是语法一致。也就是说,如果名词中心词是单数,动词用单数形式;如果名词中心词是复数,动词用复数形式。例如:
1. This table is a genuine antique.
2. Both parties have their own advantages.
(二)意义一致原则
有时,主语和谓语动词的一致关系取决于主语的单、复数意义,而不是语法上的单、复数形式,这样的一致关系就是意义一致。例如:
1. A barracks was attacked by the guerilla.
2. The United States is a developed country.
3. This pair of trousers costs fifty dollars.
(三)就近原则
有时,谓语动词的单、复数形式决定于最靠近它的词语。
例如: 1. Either my grandsons or their father ______(be) coming.
2. Not his daughter but my friends _______(agree) with him.
3. Neither Richard nor I _______(be) going.
4. Not only he but also I ____(be) interested in sports.
More rules:
一.集合名词做主语的主谓一致问题。 有些集合名词, 如: crew, committee, family, gang, government, group, class, staff, team, union等,当表示一个整体时,谓语动词用单数,当表示其中的成员时,谓语动词用复数。
例如: 1.The family ______(be)a happy one.
2. The family ______(be) kind.
通常作复数的集体名词包括police, people, cattle,等,这些集体名词通常用作复数。
例如: 1. The British police ______ (have)only very limited powers.
2. Cattle _______(feed) on grass.
二. 主语 + as much as, etc的主谓一致问题
当主语后面跟有由as much as, rather than , more than, no less than 等引导的从属结构,或跟有由as well as, in addition to , with, along with, together with, except等引导的词组时, 其后的动词形式取决主语的形式。
例如: 1. The vessel, with its entire crew and cargo ______(be) lost.
2. The ocean, as well as the gulf and the bay, _______(provide)good fishing.
3. John, rather than his roommates, ______(be) to blame.

5. Some of the employees as much as the manager ______(be)responsible for the failure.
6. My husband, more than anyone else in the family, ______(be longing) to go there again.
三.以表示数量概念的名词词组作主语的主谓一致问题
1. 当主语为表示确定数量的名词词组时,如果数量概念被看做一个整体,动词用单数.
例如:(1)The treasurer considered that twenty dollars _____(be) not too much to ask.
(2) "Two months ___(be) too short a time," General manager warned, "we must hurry up."
2. 如果作主语的名词词组是由“分数/百分数+ of”词组构成,其动词形式 取决于of词组中名词的类别。
例如:(1) Two-thirds of the people present______(be) against the plan.
(2) Over twenty percent of the city _____(be) destroyed in the war.
3.两数相减或相除,谓语动词用单数;两数相加或相乘,谓语动词可用单数,也可用复数。
例如:(1) Sixty minus seventeen _______(leave) forty-three.
(2) Forty-two divided by six ______(be)seven.
(3) Six and eight makes/make fourteen.
4. 如果主语由"one in/one out of + 复数名词" 构成,在正式语体中,动词用单数。

四、注意:

如: It all depends on whether they will come back.
②后面直接跟or not 时用whether

4、疑问词 + ever和no matter + 疑问词的区别:
①疑问词 + ever可引导名词性从句,在主从句中要充当一定的部分。如:
Whoever breaks the rule must be punished. You can choose whatever you like in the shop.
②疑问词 + ever还可引导让步状语从句。如:
Whoever breaks the rule, he must be punished. Whatever you do, you must do it well.
③no matter + 疑问词只能引导让步状语从句。如:
No matter what you do, you must do it well. No matter who breaks the rule, he must be punished.
5、名词性从句中主句和从句的时态一致、主谓一致、语序。
宾语从句中主句和从句的时态保持一致,但如果从句中表示提示的是客观现象,虽然主句是过去时态,从句仍用一般现在时。如:
Hello,I didn’t know you were in London. How long have you been here The teacher told us that light travels at a very high speed.
主语从句做主语相当于单数第三人称作主语,谓语动词用单数,如果由and 连接两个或两个以上的主语从句做主语时,谓语动词用复数;由两个或多个连接词引导一个主语从句,谓语动词用单数。如:
When the meeting will begin has not been decided yet.
When they will start and where they go have not been decided yet.
When and where the meeting will begin has not been decided.
名词性从句在句中要用陈述句语序。如:
He asked me what was the matter with me.
We’ve heard the news that well move into the new house.
Whatever you say will interest us all.
6、几个固定句式:
① 强调句 It is/was +强调部分+that…….(如果强调部分是疑问词)
eg. Who is it that spoke first When was it that they came here
② 关于doubt
sb. doubt if/whether… sb. don’t/doesn’t doubt that … There is no doubt that …
eg. There is no doubt that he will win the game.
③ 疑问词+do you think+(用陈述句语序)
eg. Who do you think we invited to give us the talk

Grammar rules of subject-verb agreement:
主谓一致指“人称”和“数”方面的一致关系。一般情况下,主谓之间的一致关系由以下三个原则支配:
语法一致原则 (grammatical concord)
意义一致原则 (notional concord)
就近原则 (principle of proximity)
(一)语法一致原则
用作主语的名词词组中心词和谓语动词在单、复数形式上的一致,就是语法一致。也就是说,如果名词中心词是单数,动词用单数形式;如果名词中心词是复数,动词用复数形式。例如:
1. This table is a genuine antique.
2. Both parties have their own advantages.
(二)意义一致原则
有时,主语和谓语动词的一致关系取决于主语的单、复数意义,而不是语法上的单、复数形式,这样的一致关系就是意义一致。例如:
1. A barracks was attacked by the guerilla.
2. The United States is a developed country.
3. This pair of trousers costs fifty dollars.
(三)就近原则
有时,谓语动词的单、复数形式决定于最靠近它的词语。
例如: 1. Either my grandsons or their father ______(be) coming.
2. Not his daughter but my friends _______(agree) with him.
3. Neither Richard nor I _______(be) going.
4. Not only he but also I ____(be) interested in sports.

例如: 1.The family ______(be)a happy one.
2. The family ______(be) kind.
通常作复数的集体名词包括police, people, cattle,等,这些集体名词通常用作复数。
例如: 1. The British police ______ (have)only very limited powers.
2. Cattle _______(feed) on grass.
二. 主语 + as much as, etc的主谓一致问题
当主语后面跟有由as much as, rather than , more than, no less than 等引导的从属结构,或跟有由as well as, in addition to ,with, along with, together with, except等引导的词组时, 其后的动词形式取决主语的形式。
例如: 1. The vessel, with its entire crew and cargo ______(be) lost.
2. The ocean, as well as the gulf and the bay, _______(provide)good fishing.
3. John, rather than his roommates, ______(be) to blame.

5. Some of the employees as much as the manager ______(be)responsible for the failure.
6. My husband, more than anyone else in the family, ______(be longing) to go there again.
三.以表示数量概念的名词词组作主语的主谓一致问题
1. 当主语为表示确定数量的名词词组时,如果数量概念被看做一个整体,动词用单数.
例如:(1)The treasurer considered that twenty dollars _____(be) not too much to ask.
(2) "Two months ___(be) too short a time," General manager warned, "we must hurry up."
2. 如果作主语的名词词组是由“分数/百分数+ of”词组构成,其动词形式 取决于of词组中名词的类别。
例如:(1) Two-thirds of the people present______(be) against the plan.
(2) Over twenty percent of the city _____(be) destroyed in the war.
3.两数相减或相除,谓语动词用单数;两数相加或相乘,谓语动词可用单数,也可用复数。
例如:(1) Sixty minus seventeen _______(leave) forty-three.
(2) Forty-two divided by six ______(be)seven.
(3) Six and eight makes/make fourteen.

例如: (1) One in ten students has passed the examination.
(2) One out of twelve bottles _____(be) left untouched..

例如:(1)Many a person in these circumstances ______(have) hoped for a long break.
(2)More than one student _______(have) failed the exam.
四.单、复数同形的名词作主语时,按意义一致的原则。作单数意义时,谓语动词用单数,反之,谓语动词用复数。这类名词有:sheep, fish, deer, means(方法), works(工厂), Chinese, Japanese等。

(2) All means _____ (have) been tried out without much result.

Grammar rules of subject-verb agreement:
主谓一致指“人称”和“数”方面的一致关系。一般情况下,主谓之间的一致关系由以下三个原则支配:
语法一致原则 (grammatical concord)
意义一致原则 (notional concord)
就近原则 (principle of proximity)
(一)语法一致原则
用作主语的名词词组中心词和谓语动词在单、复数形式上的一致,就是语法一致。也就是说,如果名词中心词是单数,动词用单数形式;如果名词中心词是复数,动词用复数形式。例如:
1. This table is a genuine antique.
2. Both parties have their own advantages.
(二)意义一致原则
有时,主语和谓语动词的一致关系取决于主语的单、复数意义,而不是语法上的单、复数形式,这样的一致关系就是意义一致。例如:
1. A barracks was attacked by the guerilla.
2. The United States is a developed country.
3. This pair of trousers costs fifty dollars.
(三)就近原则
有时,谓语动词的单、复数形式决定于最靠近它的词语。
例如: 1. Either my grandsons or their father ______(be) coming.
2. Not his daughter but my friends _______(agree) with him.
3. Neither Richard nor I _______(be) going.
4. Not only he but also I ____(be) interested in sports.
More rules:
一.集合名词做主语的主谓一致问题。 有些集合名词, 如: crew, committee, family, gang, government, group, class, staff, team, union等,当表示一个整体时,谓语动词用单数,当表示其中的成员时,谓语动词用复数。
例如: 1.The family ______(be)a happy one.
2. The family ______(be) kind.
通常作复数的集体名词包括police, people, cattle,等,这些集体名词通常用作复数。
例如: 1. The British police ______ (have)only very limited powers.
2. Cattle _______(feed) on grass.
二. 主语 + as much as, etc的主谓一致问题
当主语后面跟有由as much as, rather than , more than, no less than 等引导的从属结构,或跟有由as well as, in addition to ,with, along with, together with, except等引导的词组时, 其后的动词形式取决主语的形式。
例如: 1. The vessel, with its entire crew and cargo ______(be) lost.
2. The ocean, as well as the gulf and the bay, _______(provide)good fishing.
3. John, rather than his roommates, ______(be) to blame.

5. Some of the employees as much as the manager ______(be)responsible for the failure.
6. My husband, more than anyone else in the family, ______(be longing) to go there again.
三.以表示数量概念的名词词组作主语的主谓一致问题
1. 当主语为表示确定数量的名词词组时,如果数量概念被看做一个整体,动词用单数.
例如:(1)The treasurer considered that twenty dollars _____(be) not too much to ask.
(2) "Two months ___(be) too short a time," General manager warned, "we must hurry up."
2. 如果作主语的名词词组是由“分数/百分数+ of”词组构成,其动词形式 取决于of词组中名词的类别。
例如: (1) Two-thirds of the people present______(be) against the plan.
(2) Over twenty percent of the city _____(be) destroyed in the war.
3.两数相减或相除,谓语动词用单数;两数相加或相乘,谓语动词可用单数,也可用复数。

例如:(1)Many a person in these circumstances ______(have) hoped for a long break.
(2)More than one student _______(have) failed the exam.
四.单、复数同形的名词作主语时,按意义一致的原则。作单数意义时,谓语动词用单数,反之,谓语动词用复数。这类名词有:sheep, fish, deer, means(方法), works(工厂), Chinese, Japanese等。
例如:(1) Every means ____(have) been tried out without much result.
(2) All means _____ (have) been tried out without much result.
(3) This shoe works _____(be)set up in 1980.

(3) The pair of shoes ______ rather expensive.
七.并列结构充当主语表示整体概念时,即指的是同一人,同一事物或同一概念,谓语动词用单数形式,这时and后面的名词没有冠词。英语中并列结构表示整体概念的有:
⑴ 相关名词并列表示整体概念。如:

⑵ 配套事物。如:
a watch and chain 一块带链的表 a needle and thread针线 a coat and tie配有领带的上衣

三.阅读理解
A
A tour of the Wuyi Mountains in the northwest of Fujian Province is well worth your time. This place has clear rivers, beautiful forests on hills and peaceful villages. The UN honored much of Wuyi in 1999. Since then, more and more tourists have visited it and some have used air travel to get there. But you will be glad to know that it is still a special quiet place to see. Yunufeng, or Jade Lady Peak, is as beautiful as ever. Jiuquxi, a river in the shape of a snake in the southwestern part of the Wuyi Mountains, is still green and clear as it travels nearly ten kilometers to the flats (平地) below. On the river you can see many high hills or stop to climb a rock staircase to the top of Tianyoufeng. From there you might stand in a light warm rain as you look out over the beautiful valleys (山谷) below. Clouds come and go among the mountains and into the valleys. Birds sing cheerfully in the forest, perhaps calling out names from long ago. In another part of the river you can take a boat down a whitewater but be sure to wear a T-shirt and shorts as you will get wet! If you need to wear glasses, tie them to your head. Don’t change your mind about going down the river! Be brave! Some guides will help you on the boat and take care of you on the river. You can watch the green water become white as it begins to move more rapidly. You will probably feel both excited and nervous, but enjoy the ride! When your journey is finished, don’t forget to go to the village nearby and try the famous Wuyi rock tea. Then you can have a rest and think about the trip.

Everyone would like to be a millionaire , a person with a lot of money, but can you imagine having over $30 million and only being 20 years old Britney Spears from Kentwood, a small town in Louisiana, is only 20 years old. She is a world famous film star with not only $30 million but also a $2 million house in LA. At her young age, she can look after her family financially (经济上) all her life. This year is a big year for Britney. She is now on a 31-day tour of the US and every concert is a sell-out. That means she plays in front of a crowd of around 18,000 people every time. It’s a tiring schedule but brings her a lot. When touring, she goes to bed around 1 a.m. and then has a lie-in until 1 p.m. the next day. Her philosophy (人生观) is to take care of the body and relax but always make sure you work hard and have fun.
Spears is not pleased with only touring and selling nearly 40 million records so she decided to step into the movie business and try a bit of acting. She made an appearance in “Austin Power 3” this year and she is filming a teenage light play that will come out in March 2003. In this movie, she has a starring role.
For Britney, acting is another way to express herself and she is enthusiastic (热心的) about it all. If her movies are successful, her money in the bank is sure to grow by another few million dollars but she does it for the love, not the money, as she herself tells the reporters.
45. We can infer (推断) from the text that most millionaires are __________.
A. older than 20 B. around 20 C. in their 30s D. in their 40s

While reading a book in English, every few lines of text, you run across a word or two that you don’t know. You look up every new word in the dictionary. Bad move. All that does slow you down. Even electric or CD –ROM dictionaries can get in the way of your reading progress. A dictionary is like a road map. It can help you if you get lost and point you in the right direction. But if you stop to look at the “map” each time you take a step, you’ll get nowhere fast.
On your English learning “journey”, a dictionary can be a helpful “travel companion (伙伴)”--if it is not overused. To help you start thinking in English, use an English-to-English dictionary. Otherwise, you will always depend on (依赖) your native language and end up translating in your head.
A good dictionary can help you do more than just find the meaning of a word. It can help you verify (test and check) spelling, check word forms and grammar usage, find example sentence and learn pronunciation. Some dictionaries even provide exercises to teach you how to use their resources (资源) .
Take time to get to know your dictionary. Learn the pronunciation symbols (符号). Understand what the abbreviations (缩写字) mean. Try to master the important grammar rules. Look for charts, diagrams and lists that might be useful in the future. You will discover how helpful it can be to make friends with your dictionary. And as they say, “A friend in need is a friend indeed.”
49. Why do we need a good English-to-English dictionary
A. Because it is a good friend.
B. Because it can help us to find the right direction if we get lost.
C. Without it we’ll always depend on our native language and end up translating in our head.
D. Because it can help us to start thinking in English and in Chinese.
50. The underlined word “that ” in the last paragraph refers to __________.
A. pronunciation symbols and grammar rules
B. abbreviations and usage for grammar rules
C. the meaning of a word, spelling and grammar usage
D. charts, diagrams and lists
51. According to the passage, which statement can lead you to believe
A. The more you use a dictionary, the better you can understand the article.
B. The more you use a dictionary, the faster you may read.
C. The more you use the resources in a dictionary, the more you can benefit (受益) from it.
D. The better a dictionary is, the more expensive it is.

Turning on the TV, a wonderful scene comes to your eyes---- a group of men, tall, strong and handsome. And women, young, beautiful and attractive, too. Together they eat in the finest restaurants, traveling everywhere around the world by luxurious planes and pleasure-ships. They are models.
Do you envy them What sort of life are model leading Is it a wonderful life for a young lady or a young man
A few models are well-known actors or actresses who can make a big money only by showing themselves off in commercials. But the majority of them are just curious to see what it is like. They’d like to be models just because they are attracted by what they imagine— Models earn a lot of money and lead a glorious life. This is true for those who are very successful. However, most models find it difficult to get work.. Very few can earn enough to live on, and for all models their expenses are high. Their agents claim about 20% of the earnings, and no model will get very far without a clever agent. Besides, they have to buy good clothing. They also have to pay to travel to interviews and reach the places where the work is to be done.
Interviews for a model job are known as cattle-markets in the modelling world. A top model can choose her work, demand and receive high fees and have her expenses paid. But for most models, the situation is quite different. An agent or employer inspects each model much as a farmer inspects cattle at a market. Intelligence, qualifications and personal characteristics count for little against good looks and the tight figure. For all except the very few lucky ones, the life of a model is a continual search for work, trying to sell herself or himself in the face of fierce competition and, sometimes, not particularly moral standards on the part of some employers.
Immigration officials at airport look suspiciously at a girl whose passport shows her occupation as “Model”, and these are men and women of considerable experience of the world. It comes no surprise to find that some models prefer to put “Secretary” or “Businessman” as their jobs in their passports.
Modelling is a changeable world with great rewards for a tiny minority but not for the majority.
52. For models, their looks and figures are_____ , compared with their good qualifications and intelligence.
A. more important B. less needed C. less essential D. more looked down upon
53. Which of the following can lead you to believe according to the passage
A. A model ‘s travelling expenses are usually paid by his employer.
B. to be a model, good looks is the most important qualification.
C. Most models have a fairly easy way of life with high pay.
D. A model can hardly be successful without a good agent.
54. Models often put “Secretary” or” Businessmen” instead of” Model” in their passports because
A. they want to avoid being stopped to sign their names by fans
B. a person with the occupation of a model is easily attacked by black societies.
C . models are sometimes looked down upon
D. secretaries and businessmen are free of Customs duty
55. What may be the author’s attitude toward modelling
A. It is a worthwhile life for a young lady or a young man.
B. He is in favour of young people to try modelling.
C. Before being crazy about a model job ,young people should be aware of the difficulties.
D. It is a field in which everyone has a great chance to succeed.
四.任务型阅读(共10小题; 每小题1分,满分10分)
Good communication is vital in modern society. We know that much of the communication is unspoken. Consciously or unconsciously, we show our true feelings with our eyes, faces, bodies and attitudes. Your good qualities can make good communication. The personal qualities include: physical appearance, energy, rate of speech, pitch and tone of voice, gestures, expressiveness of eyes, and the ability to hold the interest of others.
What should we do so that our communication will be effective Here are my suggestions.
Firstly, you should be yourself. The trick is to be consistently you, at your best. The most effective people never change character from one situation to another. They’re the same whether they’re having a conversation with their close friends, addressing their garden club or being interviewed for a job. They communicate with their whole being.
Secondly, whether you’re talking to one person or one hundred, always remember to look at them. Don’t break eye contact while talking. As you enter a room, move your eyes comfortably, then look directly at those in the room and smile. This shows clearly that you are at ease. Smiling is important. The best type of smile and eye contact is gentle and comfortable, not forced.
You should also absorb other people before showing yourself. You can’t learn anything when you talk. When you attend a meeting, a party or an interview, don’t immediately start throwing your opinions. Stop for a second. Absorb what’s going on. What’s the mood of the others—are they down, up, happy, expectant Are they eager to learn from you, or do they show resistance If you can sense what’s happening with others, you will be better able to reach them. So, listen before you talk.
The fourth suggestion is that you focus your energy. How do you get your energy up Before the meeting, collect your thoughts about the goal of the meeting—yours and the other’s. Once you go through the doorway, no longer think about yourself. Focus on the person you are meeting to find out what he is interested in. Properly collected energy comes across when we sincerely believe something. When you speak with energy, you are involved with your audience and your message. You create an air of certainty. The audience may disagree with you, but they can’t question your belief.
Lastly, I would like to remind you that you should lighten up. Take a good hard look at your self. Do you say “I” too often Are you only concentrated on your own problems Do you complain frequently If you answered yes to even one of these questions, you need to be more relaxed.
How to communicate (71) ▲
Suggestions Dos Don’ts
Be yourself Always be the same and communicate with your whole being. Change character in (72) ▲ situations.
Use your eyes and smile Make direct eye contact.Present a gentle and comfortable (73) ▲ . Break eye contact.(74) ▲ yourself to smile.

A
A few months ago, millions of people in London heard alarms all over the town. The emergency services, the Fire Departments, the Police, hospitals, and ambulances stood by, ready to go into action. In railway underground stations, people read notices and maps which told them where to go and what to do in the emergency. This was Exercise Flood Call, to prepare people for a flood emergency. London wasn't flooded yet, but it is possible that it would be. In 1236 and in 1663, London was badly flooded. In 1928, people living in Westminster, the heart of London, drowned in floods. And in 1953, one hundred people, living on the eastern edge of the London suburbs were killed, again, in the floods. At last, Greater London Council took actions to prevent this disaster from happening again. Though a flood wall was built in the 1960s, Londoners still must be prepared for the possible disaster. If it happens, 50 underground stations will be under water. Electricity, gas and phone services will be out of action. Roads will be drowned. It will be impossible to cross any of the bridges between north and south London. Imagine: London will look like the famous Italian city, Venice. But this Exercise Flood Call didn't cause panic among Londoners. Most people knew it was just a warning. One lady said, "It's a flood warning, isn't it The water doesn't look high to me."?

A. Possible damages caused by floods. B. Emergency exercise in London.

A. describe how frightened most of the Londoners were
B. argue that it’s impossible to prevent floods in London
C. show that most Londoners took Exercise Flood Call carmly
D. prove that Exercise Flood Call did cause a lot of trouble to the Londoners.
54. From this passage, we can conclude that_____________.
A. though a flood wall has once been built, London is very likely to be struck by a big flood
B. It is impossible for a flood to happen again in London
C. Londoners have done nothing to prevent the flood from attacking their city again

四. 任务型阅读(共1 O题;每小题1分,满分1 O分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意:每空格1个单词,不得用文章中的单词。
D. R. Gaul Middle School is in Union, Maine, a blueberry-farming town where the summer fair finds kids competing in pig scrambles and pie-eating contests.
Gaul, with about 170 seventh- and eighth-graders, has its own history of lower level academic achievement. One likely reason: Education beyond the basic requirements hasn't always been a top priority for families who've worked the same land for generations. Here, few adults have college degrees, and outsiders (teachers included) are often kept at a respectful distance.
Since 2002, Gaul's students have been divided into four classes, each of them taught almost every subject by two teachers. The goal: To find common threads across disciplines to help students create a big picture that gives fresh meaning and context to their classwork -- and sparks motivation for learning.
Working within state guidelines, each team makes its individual schedules and lesson plans, incorporating non-textbook literature, hands-on lab work and field trips. If students are covering the Civil War in social studies, they're reading The Red Badge of Courage or some other period literature in English class. In science, they study the viruses and bacteria that caused many deaths in the war.
Team teaching isn't unusual. About 77 percent of middle schools now employ some form of it, says John Lounsbury, consulting editor for the National Middle School Association. But most schools use four- or five-person teams, which Gaul tried before considering two-person teams more effective. Gaul supports the team concept by "looping" classes (跟班) so that the same two teachers stick with the same teens through seventh and eighth bining teams and looping creates an extremely strong bond between teacher and student. It also, says teacher Beth Ahlholm, "allows us to build an excellent relationship with parents."
Ahlholm and teammate Madelon Kelly are fully aware how many glazed looks they see in the classroom, but they know 72 percent of their eighth-graders met Maine's reading standard last year -- double the statewide average. Only 31 percent met the math standard, still better than the state average (21 percent). Their students also beat the state average in writing and science. And in2006, Gaul was one of 47 schools in the state to see testing gains of at least 20 percent in four of the previous five years, coinciding roughly with team teaching's arrival.

Problems of the school Being a farming town,it(1) little in education before.
(2) education is considered less important.
The community is relatively(3) rather than open to the outsiders.

Aspects In the UK In China
Huge campus and low-rise buildings We can see huge campus and low-rise buildings, which is the biggest difference from schools in China Schools in China usually have a large enough campus to make sure students have enough space to study and play in. But most school buildings are taller, at least three storeys.
Lockers for every student There are rows of lockers by the classrooms for students to put stationary, books, and other belongings. Students bring what they need for lessons to school and then take it all back home after school. Most schools in china do not have equipment in the classroom.
Fewer students in each class There are fewer students in a class, no more than 30 per class. There are more students in high school, perhaps 40 to 50 per class. Recently some schools begin to limit the number of students in each class.
At ease with our teacher Students have a close relationship with teachers. They feel at ease with them. It’s similar in china. Nowadays, teachers and students have established a good relationship with each other. They respect each other and work to gain a better understanding.
