答案：B 考查冠词。第一空考查“the＋adj.”表示一类人；第二空本来出现可数名词的复数直接表示类别种类来泛指，但由于后面有of结构来作后置定语，所以在fruits前要加上the，表示社会发展的特定的成果。

12．The new comers found it impossible to ________ themselves to the climate to make permanent homes in the new country.
A．suit B．adapt
C．regulate D．relate
答案：B 考查词义辨析。句意：这些新来者发现，在这个国家要适应这儿的气候并永久定居下来是不可能的。adapt (oneself) to sth.“适应某物”，符合句意。suit“适合某人”；regulate“(用法律)管制；控制(机器、设备)；调节”；relate... to... “把……同……联系在一起”。
13．Your plan is much better than your classmate's ________.

A．to correct; annoying B．correcting; annoyed
C．to correct; annoyed D．correcting; annoying
答案：C 这是一道典型的陷阱题。第一空中his son had finished是the composition的定语，可以不予考虑，意为“他儿子写完的作文”，第一空就该用不定式表示目的，“检查是为了改正可能出现的拼写错误”，在第二空中出题老师又设置了一个陷阱，he got used to其实又是后置定语，中间省略了that，所以整个句子缺少谓语动词，只能选择过去式annoyed。
15．He is never absent________school________.
A．from; despite of his serious illness
B．of; though seriously ill
C．from; despite his serious illness
D．of; except when he is ill
答案：C be absent from“缺席，不在”。句意：即使生了重病，他也从没有缺过课。despite是介词，后面不能再用其他介词，相当于in spite of。

?49%的网民则认为让座应出于自愿，不应该强迫。
?我认为……

Beijing_named_the_22nd_of_every_month_as“Seat-giving_Day”to_encourage_passengers_on_public_transport_to_give_seats_to_those_in_great_need,_and_those_commuters_who_refuse_to_do_so_will_get_criticized._This_activity_arouses_different_opinions_among_citizens.
51% of citizens are for the activity. They think, for one thing, it is one of the China's traditional virtues to offer seats to the aged, pregnant women, children and the disabled. For another thing, more passengers' offering seats can leave a good impression on visitors both home and abroad.
49% of citizens, however, object to the activity. In their opinion, giving seats is a matter of willingness, and passengers should not be forced to do so. Moreover, if some passengers get criticized only because of their refusal to offer seats, fewer commuters will approve the activity.
As far as I'm concerned, this activity is surely of great help to set a better image of Beijing. Through such activity, Beijing will see an increasing number of people willing to do so and an improvement of people's behavior.

Ⅳ.阅读理解

They can run all day. They never complain and if they demand a pay rise you can just remove their batteries：many premiership managers must dream of having a robotic (机器人的)football player.
In fact, robotics researchers believe that by 2050 a robotic football team will take to the field that will be able to defeat the current human world champions.
It's an ambitious goal which sounds more like science fiction than reality—but the plan to develop the robotic equivalent of Brazil is already well on its way.
This week, teams of robots from all over the world are taking part in Robocup 2007—the robotic football World Cup.
This year the event is taking place at Georgia Tech University in the US for the biggest ever demonstration of robotic footballing prowess.
While they might not have the guile or pace of Wayne Rooney just yet, scorelines that stretched into double figures proves that these robo-soccer stars certainly have a grasp of the game's fundamentals.
The groups ranged from the “Humanoid League” right through to robots so small they can only be seen with a microscope in the inaugural “Nano-Cup”．
For robots to play football, various technologies have been developed including artificial intelligence so the robots know who to pass to and how best to defeat an opponent as well as sophisticated robotics and sensors. After the fun and games of the Robocup is over, the technologies developed for scoring winning goals is then transferred to a number of other more useful applications such as developing robots that can be used in search and rescue in large scale disaster.

Instead of hitting the beach, fourteen high school students traded swimming suits for lab coats last summer and turned their attention to scientific experiments.
The High School Research Program offers high school students guidance with researchers in Texas A & M's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Jennifer Funkhouser, academic adviser for the Department of Rangeland Ecology and Management, directs this four-week summer program designed to increase understanding of research and its career potential.
Several considerations go into selecting students, including grades, school involvement and interest in science and agriculture. And many students come from poorer school districts. Funkhouser says, “This is their chance to learn techniques and do experiments they would never have a chance to do in high school.” Warner Ervin of Houston is interested in animal science and learned how to tell male from female mosquitoes. His adviser, Craig Coates, studies the genes of mosquitoes that allow them to fight against malaria and yellow fever. Coates thought this experience would be fun and helpful to the high school students.
The agricultural research at A&M differs from stereotypes. It's “molecular(分子)science on the cutting edge，” Funkhouser says. The program broadened students' knowledge. Victor Garcia of Rarcia of Rio Grande City hopes to become a biology teacher and says he learned a lot about chemistry from the program.
At the end of the program, the students presented papers on their research. They're also paid $600 for their work—another way this program differs from others, which often charges a fee.
Fourteen students got paid to learn that science is fun, that agriculture is a lot more than milking and plowing and that research can open many doors.
文章大意：为了培养未来的科学爱好者，the High School Research Program启动了。

7．It can be inferred from the text that the students in poorer areas________.
A．found the program useful to their future
B．could often take part in the program
C．had little chance to go to college
D．showed much interest in their high school experiments
答案：A 推理判断题。由第三段最后“...this experience would be fun and helpful to the high school students.”可推知。
8．When the program was over, the students________.
A．entered that college
B．wrote research reports
C．paid for their research
D．found ways to make money
答案：B 细节理解题。由第五段第一句话可知，学生们要写调查报告。
9．What would be the best title for the passage?
A．A Program for Agricultural Science Students
B．A Program for Animal Science Students
C．A Program for Medical Science Lovers
D．A Program for Future Science Lovers
答案：D 主旨大意题。由文章大意可知。D项具体简洁。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
A
Robinson Diaz lives in a small cottage high in the Andes Mountains of South America. Diaz is a“cable racer”， and every morning he faces the difficult task of taking the local teacher to her school. To do this, he first walks for an hour up to a place the locals call Los Pinos, right at the edge of the 400-foot deep gorge(峡谷)of the Negro valley. Here, one end of a thick metal cable has been fixed to a wooden post. The cable stretches right across the deep valley to the other side, a kilometer away.
A metal hook is fixed to the cable, with leather straps hanging from it. Diaz fastens the straps around his shoulders and waist, does a quick safety check and then, without hesitating, throws himself off the edge of the mountain. Attached to the cable by only the metal hook, he rapidly picks up speed and soon he is racing through the air. Crossing the valley by wire takes him 30 seconds, instead of the two hours it would take him to walk down through the rain forest and climb up the steep muddy slopes on the other side.
As Diaz begins his trip, Diana Rios, a 23-year-old elementary teacher, is waiting on the other side of the gorge for the moment when he will come racing through the mist towards her at 100 mph. She will then return with him, hanging on to him as he goes back along the cable. Diana had no idea when she took the teaching job that just getting to work in the village school would be dangerous.“At first I wanted to cry，” she says, clutching her hook as the metal cable starts to rattle(喀哒作响)violently at Diaz's approach. “But I soon got used to it.”She still prefers to go with Diaz, though, rather than making the frightening and dangerous crossing on her own.
For the inhabitants(居民)of Los Pinos, the wire cable is a lifeline. For more than 50 years, it has served the community as a form of transport to and from the rest of the world. Everything that comes arrives via the cable—bricks and wood for building, sacks of rice and corn. Pregnant mothers, who must get to the nearest clinic, cross the wire during the darkness of the night, returning with their newborn babies. It is dangerous, but they have no choice.
This time Robinson Diaz makes a perfect landing on Diana's side of the gorge. For him, the dangers of this daily journey are insignificant. “What I'm really scared of is snakes，” he says.“This is nothing in comparison.”Then Diana straps herself into her harness and hooks herself up to the wire behind Diaz, holding on to him tightly. He turns, flashes her a smile, releases the brake and kicks away. Within seconds, teacher and cable-racer have disappeared back into the mist.

B
I have always been in a hurry and tried to finish too many things. I never had time to think about my beliefs until my daughter, Paula, fell ill. She was in a coma(昏迷) for a year and I took care of her at home, until she died in my arms in December of 1992.
During that year everything stopped for me. There was nothing to do—just cry and remember. However, that year also gave me an opportunity to reflect upon(反思)my life. I discovered that my beliefs and the way I lived my life had changed.
Paula worked as a volunteer helping women and children. She never had any money, but she needed very little. When she died she had nothing and she needed nothing. During her illness I had to let go of everything: her laughter, her voice, her grace, her beauty, her company and finally her spirit. When she died, I thought I had lost everything, but then I realized I still had something that I had given her—the love.
Paula taught me a lesson that is now my belief: you only have what you give. It's by spending yourself that you become rich. Now I like to give much more than to receive. I am happier when I love than when I am loved. I love my husband, my son, my grandchildren, my mother, my dog, and frankly I don't know if they even like me. But who cares? Loving them is my joy.
Give, give, give—what is the point of having experience, knowledge or talent if I don't give it away? Of having stories if I don't tell them to others? Of having wealth if I don't share it? I don't intend to be buried with any of it! It is in giving that I connect with others and with everything. It is in giving that I feel the spirit of my daughter inside me, like a soft presence.
文章大意：作者的女儿Paula是一个慈善组织的志愿者。她一直无私帮助别的妇女儿童，以至于因病去世以后一无所有。女儿的死令作者悲痛万分，从而使其改变了信念和生活方式。她开始用无私的给予和爱去帮助别人，同时也使自己变得更加富有。
6．The author's daughter died of/from________.
A. an accident B. overwork
C. an illness D. cancer
答案：C 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“I never had time to think about my beliefs until my daughter, Paula，fell ill”可知答案选C。
7．What's the effect of her daughter's death on the author?
A．The author was regretful, for she hadn't taken good care of her daughter.
B．The author was too sad to go on with her work.
C．The author became more selfish than before.
D．The author's beliefs and lifestyle were changed.
答案： D 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“I discovered that my beliefs and the way I lived my life had changed”可知答案选D。
8．It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A．Paula was a teenager who worked as a volunteer
B．Paula had donated all her money and belongings to others
C．the author's family didn't like her
D．the author wanted to be a rich woman
答案：B 推理判断题。从第三段“She never had any money，but she needed very little.When she died she had nothing and she needed nothing”可知，Paula死去的时候一无所有，联系到前面所说的她是一个帮助妇女儿童的志愿者，可以推断她在生前把自己的钱物全都捐赠给别人了。
9．What's the best title of the passage?
A. Connect with Others
B. Take Time with Your Family
C. Don't Always Be in a Hurry
D. A Lesson from My Daughter
答案： D 主旨大意题。文章通过描述作者从女儿的死得到的感触，表达了作者从女儿身上学到生活的意义在于给予而不是索取，因此D项为最佳标题。

Dear_Ms_Wang，
I'm_Li_Ming._Two_years_ago,_I_received_your_letter_and_schooling_fees. I'm very grateful for your kindness and generosity.
But for your help, I couldn't enjoy a wonderful college life in the beautiful campus right now. I've made a lot of friends here. Moreover, I am studying hard so as to acquire an abundant knowledge of English, which is my major. In fact, I'm making progress each day. Only in this way can I learn more and use what I've known to help those in need as well. Besides, I'm determined to go back to my hometown after graduation and devote myself to building my hometown, to make it more prosperous and beautiful.
Words seem to fail me when I try once more to express my thanks to you, and I'll keep my promise and not let you down.
Yours_sincerely，
Li_Ming
