Ⅳ．阅读理解
A Southampton University team found that people who were vegetarians by 30 had recorded five IQ points higher on average at the age of 10.Researchers said it could explain why people with a higher IQ were healthier as a vegetarian diet was linked to lower heart disease and obesity rates.The study of 8,179 people was reported in the British Medical Journal.
Twenty years after the IQ tests were carried out in 1970,366 of the participants said they were vegetarians—although more than 100 reported eating either fish or chicken.
Men who were vegetarians had an IQ score of 106，compared with 101 for non-vegetarians，while female vegetarians averaged 104，compared with 99 for non-vegetarians.There was no difference in the IQ scores，between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarians but reported eating fish or chicken.
Researchers said the findings were partly related to better education and higher class，but it remained statistically significant after adjusting for these factors.
Vegetarians were more likely to be female，to be of higher social class and to have higher academic or vocational qualifications than non-vegetarians.However，these differences were not reflected in their annual income，which was similar to that of non-vegetarians.
Lead researcher Catharine Gale said，“The findings that children with greater intelligence are more likely to report being vegetarians as adults，together with the evidence on the potential benefits of a vegetarian diet on heart health，may help to explain why a higher IQ in childhood or adolescence is linked with a reduced risk of coronary heart disease in adult life.
But Dr Frankie Phillips of the British Dietetic Association said，“It_is_like_the_chicken_and_egg.Do people become vegetarians because they have a very high IQ or is it just that they are clever enough to be more aware of health issues？”
1．What's the result of the research mentioned in the text?
A．Intelligent children are more likely to become vegetarians later in life.
B．Children with a higher IQ are less likely to have heart disease later in life.
C．Intelligent children tend to belong to higher social class later in life.
D．Children with a healthier heart tend to have a higher IQ later in life.
2．It was found in the research that______.
A．most of the participants became vegetarians 20 years after the IQ tests were carried out
B．vegetarians who ate fish or chicken were of similar intelligence with strict vegetarians
C．female vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non-vegetarians
D．vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non-vegetarians
3．Catharine Gale talked about “being vegetarians” in a（n）______ way.
A．doubtful B．favorable
C．negative D．objective
4．What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A．Intelligence is linked to not just being a vegetarian but to many factors.
B．The rate of getting heart disease is linked to your lifestyle.
C．The link between a high IQ and being a vegetarian is still uncertain.
D．The link between a healthy heart and diet remains to be proved.
5．What's the best title for the text?
A．Get more IQ points!
B．Be a vegetarian，please!
C．Vegetarian diet cuts heart risk
D．A high IQ is linked to being a vegetarian
参考答案
Ⅰ．1．focus on opening up；beneficial to 2．in the form of；distributed to 3．pick out；try out on 4．With the application；cured of 5．swollen up；let out
Ⅱ．1．A that引导risk的同位语从句。因为“...kids catch a cold”为一个成分很完整的分句，所以用that来引导，that在句中不作任何成分。whether/if虽然也不作从句成分，但有“是否”的含义，在此处不合适。句意为“如何才能降低孩子患感冒的风险？”
2．B It是形式主语，真实主语是不定式结构，所以其性质应该是“令人吃惊的”。故选B项。
3．B 句意：做特工的一个必需品质他是没有的，那就是：不完成任务誓不罢休的决心。possess既可以表示“拥有”，后接某种实体的东西，也可以表示“具有”，后接某种性质或素质。own只能接前者；hold“持有”；occupy“占有”。
4．A 此题考系动词。make作系动词时，意思是“造就成……”；go作系动词时，后面要接形容词作表语，而且一般为贬义形容词；keep意为“保持某状态”，不合题意；come作系动词时，一般用于come true的搭配。
5．D become/fall/be ill都是正确搭配，但keep ill不对。故选D项。
6．C 如果把题干还原成一个陈述句，强调句句型一目了然，被强调部分是when he was a young man。
7．C 句意：这个菜足以证明你厨艺很高。故选C项。turn sb.sth.是错误搭配；make sb.sth.虽然搭配正确，但逻辑不通；get sb.sth.是接的双宾语结构，表示“给某人弄来某物”。
8．D look up to意思是“敬仰，钦佩，崇拜”；look down on意思是“轻视，蔑视”；look out of为“从……向外看”；look out for意思是“留心，留意”。句意“我们要留意那些可能参与打群架的孩子。有人常常看到他们聚集在体育场地。”
9．B 根据provide和the police可知句意为“他们尚未向警察提供任何证明撞车事件不是偶发事故而是一场蓄意谋杀的证据”。evidence “证据”。
10．B 句意：弗兰克信仰人性之善会战胜邪恶。subscribe to意为“赞同某种信仰或理论”；submit to“服从”，admit to“承认”，agree to“同意，通过”，这几个都不能和the belief搭配。
11．C 根据causing great concern in...可知空处的短语意思应该是“沉溺于……”，故答案为C项。absorbed in“全神贯注于……”，不合适；lost to“被输给……”或“（sth./sb.be lost to sb.）某人失去了某人/某物”，也不合适。句意为“那些沉溺于网络游戏的孩子一天会花八到十个小时盯着电脑玩游戏，让父母和教育工作者们非常担忧”。
12．A 句子基本意思应该是“直到17世纪针灸才传入西方。”spread to a place意思是“传播到某地”。
13．B 句意为“你要向我推荐谁去担任那个职位？”recommend sb./sth.to sb.“向某人推荐某人/某物”，recommend sb./sth.for sth.意思为“为某目的推荐某人/某物”，也就是“向推荐某人/某物做某工作或承担某职位”。
14．B 根据下句“他被埋在废墟中接近160个小时”可知前一句表达的是“他在那次地震中存活下来，真是一个奇迹（wonder）”。
15．D 句意为“今天体罚在中国学校已经不再实行了”。正确搭配为practice physical punishment。
Ⅲ．1．While/Although/Though 句意为“虽然大蒜对社交没有好处，因为吃大蒜过量的人带有口臭所以会让旁人唯恐避之不及， 它却有可能救你的命”。
2．as as well as为固定搭配，意思是“以及……，还有……”。句意为“由于埃及法老以及中国古人广泛使用大蒜，它因其调味及药用功能而广为知名”。
3．healthy 句意为“埃及人甚至用大蒜喂养他们的奴隶让他们身体保持健康。”前句的medicinal暗示应该填healthy。
4．For 意思是“对于”。句意为“对于那些患高血压、胆固醇偏高和心脏病的人来说，大蒜应该成为他们最好的朋友。”
5．can 大蒜能够降低血压和胆固醇水平。
6．enough 研究已经表明一瓣大蒜就足以降低胆固醇。
7．especially/particularly 意思是“尤其”。 句意为“大蒜在抗感冒症状方面疗效特佳，尤其是和富含维生素C的食物同吃时……”
8．or 表示选择关系。意思是“可以捣碎也可以不捣碎”。
Ⅳ．1．A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“...people who were vegetarians by 30 had recorded five IQ points higher on average at the age of 10.”可知A项正确。根据“it could explain why...”可知这一结果可帮助解释B项中的现象，但B项并非这次研究的结果。故本题选A项。
2．B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“There was no difference in the IQ scores，between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarians but reported eating fish or chicken”可知答案。
3．D 推理判断题。根据第六段可知Catharine Gale只是客观地讲述研究结果，并没有表示自己的立场。故选D项。
4．C 推理判断题。文章最后一句的意思是：人们成为素食者是因为他们智商高还是因为他们足够聪明而更注意健康问题？由此可见Dr Frankie Phillips认为素食和高智商的因果关系尚未明确，就像弄不清楚是因为先有蛋才有鸡，还是因为先有鸡才有蛋一样。故C项正确。
5．D 标题概括题。本文介绍了一项研究结果：素食与高智商有关，故D项正确。作者并未提出建议，所以A、B两项错误；文章中虽然提到了心脏病，但不是文章的主旨，故C项错误。

Ⅴ．阅读简答
Tom Heaffey，a bright 18-year-old man，has just graduated from middle school.Yet just three years ago，he was actually predicted to fail his exams.
Remarkably，his life has been changed by a pair of blue glasses，which have enabled him to read properly for the first time.
Tom suffers from visual stress.Without glasses，when he looks at a printed page，the text appeared to be unclear and distorted（失真的）.Other symptoms include headaches.
When Tom was a child，his mother Sarah knew he was performing badly at school.
“He used to say the words were jumping.Eye tests showed his sight was normal，so his teachers concluded he was a slower learner.”
“Trying to read was tiring and gave me headaches，so I couldn't concentrate for long，” recalls Tom.
It was not until three years ago that he was diagnosed with visual stress.
According to Arnold Wilkins，professor of Essex University，the condition is a result of the neurons（神经元）in the visual part of the brain.
“Different neurons in the brain react to different colors，” explains Prof.Wilkins.“We discovered that using colored lenses（透镜）reduces the overactivity of these neurons.”
As a patient will respond differently to each color，Prof.Wilkins developed the Intuitive Colorimeter，a testing device that diagnoses the exact color an individual needs.
Patients are asked to read the text on a machine that can cause 110,000 different colors.The correct shade will allow the patient to read clearly.This information is used to make the right color of colored lens.
Tom's lenses are blue.When he first put on his glasses，he felt emotional.“Suddenly，when I looked at a book，I could see how I should always have been able to see.”
By doing three hours of extra work after school every night，Tom passed ten examinations，with one A and three Bs.“Mum cried when I got my results，” he says.
1．What are the symptoms of visual stress？（No more than 7 words.）
________________________________________________________________________
2．How do colored lenses deal with visual stress？（No more than 15 words.）
________________________________________________________________________
3．What is the use of the Intuitive Colorimeter？（No more than 8 words.）
________________________________________________________________________
4．According to the last paragraph，why could Tom pass his examinations successfully？（No more than 9 words.）

Ⅱ．1．A can't/never too...为固定句式，表示“怎么……也不过分；越……越好”。
2．C 句意：父母发现很难理解他们十几岁的孩子——他们怎么可以整晚不知疲倦地聚会玩乐呢？relate to sb./sth.这里意思是“理解”。react to为“对……做出反应”；respond to为“对……做出回应”；reply to为“对……做出回答”。
3．D consider “考虑”；admit “承认”；absorb “吸收”；acknowledge“承认，供认”。
4．B 句意：我们相信，一个人掌握了足够量的词汇时，他就可以自如地使用英语了。at one's command“由某人支配，随某人的意愿，随心所欲地”。by no means“不可能”；with great difficulty“有很大困难地”；for good measure“另外，还有”。
5．C drawback意思是“缺陷，缺点”，weakness是“弱点，缺陷”，故选C项。

11．D 考查be accustomed to（习惯于）的用法。句意为：——学生们很安静，是吧？——是的，他们习惯了吃饭时不说话”。根据短语be accustomed to doing的用法，可知选择D选项。

13．D 此句是把make better use of 的宾语time提前了，后面的to learn our lessons well是动词不定式短语作目的状语。
14．B 这是一个祈使句，要用动词原形，and连接两个句子，构成“祈使句＋and＋句子”的句型，if you can是条件状语从句。句意为“如果可能，就献血吧，许多生命将会得救”。

“Do you like doing things for people？” I asked a friend.“Yes，most of the time，” she replied.“Most of the time？” “Well，I love to do things that are unexpected.I like to do little things most people wouldn't think about doing，” she said.“But why did you say most of the time？” “Well，sometimes after doing those little things people take advantage of you.I mean，they expect you to do it again.They ask you to do it.That's when I don't like it.”
It was odd that I had this conversation.This just happened to me.I love to do little things.I will pay for a meal card for the people in the office every time we have a meeting there.Not a big thing.It's a little thing.$5.30 will pay for almost five lunches.Hey，big spender!
I also bought a bag of animal crackers for a friend at work.She was having a tough day and not very happy at all.I drove down to the Wal-Mart and picked up a huge bag for under $2.00.Her smile was worth it.But one week she said，“Bob，we ran out of crackers.We love them so much.” I didn't want to do it.I smiled and she persisted.I finally admitted，“It's different when I do it because I want to，but now you are trying to make me go to get them.It's not the same.” But I bought it for her.
Unfortunately，a big fire in my family took away all the possessions we had.I didn't know what to do and how to do it.What happened to me then surprised me most.I once had my bike repaired，but the repairman said “no charge” on hearing my sufferings.A stranger called James Kennedy read some pieces I'd written about our sufferings for Slate，the online magazine，and wanted to give us a new house across the lake from New Orleans.I refused but I felt moved.Another poet at the University of Florida also wanted to let his house to me free of charge while he was on holiday.My mates gave us more money for us to rebuild my home.
When you do something kind for others，do you always get rewarded？Yes，but not in the way you might expect.

Ⅳ．阅读填空
In addition to self-awareness，imagination，and conscience，it is the fourth quality—independent will—that really makes effective self-management possible.It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in agreement with them.It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon，to actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qualities.The human will is an amazing thing.Time after time，it has overcome unbelievable difficulties.The Helen Kellers of this world give dramatic（给人深刻印象的）evidence to the value，the power of the independent will.
But as we examine this quality in the context of effective self-management，we realize it's usually not the dramatic，the visible，the once-in-a-lifetime，up-by-the-bootstraps（自立自强的）effort that brings lasting success.This special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions we make every day.
The degree to which we have developed our independent will in our everyday lives is measured by our personal honesty.Honesty is，fundamentally，the value we place on ourselves.It's our ability to make and keep promises to ourselves，to “walk our talk”．
Effective management is putting first things first. While leadership decides what “first things” are，it is management that puts them first，day-by-day，moment-by-moment.Management is discipline（training to be self-controlled），carrying it out.
Discipline obtains from belief—belief in a set of values，belief in an overriding（最主要的）purpose，to a long-term or short-term goal that must be carried out.
In other words，if you are an effective manager of yourself，your discipline comes from within；it is a fun_ction of your independent will.You are a follower of your own deep values and their source.
And you have the will，the quality to control your feelings and moods rather than depend on others or have your work half done.
Title
The power of independent will
Theme
Independent will makes self-management 1．______.
Reasons
?The example given to 2．______ power of independent will is amazing.
?Power of independent will helps to 3．______ every day.
?4．______is very important to develop our independent will.
?It's our ability to have our promises made and 5．______.
Suggestions
?Effective managers should know 6．______ should be done first.
?Effective managers with discipline should 7．______ their promises.
8． ______
?You follow your 9．______.
?Your feelings and moods are able to 10．______.
参考答案
Ⅰ．1．undertook the arrangements；which；tired 2．under the authority of；of which 3．decided on；put you through to；accelerate the pace 4．put off；turned up 5．has the responsibility to prevent；violate/break；risking
Ⅱ．1．A 该特殊疑问句可还原成：“It is up to ______ to decide whether to go or not”，再就somebody进行提问，答案就一目了然了。
2．C 本题考查强调句型It is...that...的用法。句意：正是党使我们过上幸福的生活成为可能。根据句意强调部分为the Party，第二空考查句型make＋宾语＋possible＋for sb.to do sth.使得……成为可能。
3．A 虽然状语in提前，但主语是人称代词时，主谓不倒装。若选D项要改为came Mr Smith。
4．B sth.need to be done（by...）或sth.need doing意思是“某物需要被……”。句意为“成立一个非政府组织需要得到一个叫做民政部的政府机构的批准。”故选B项。
5．A 句意：要当上美国总统有什么要求？It requires sth.to do sth.是固定句型。it是形式主语，to do是真正的主语。need/ask/request通常只用人做主语，不能用事物作主语。
6．D 句意：我被耽搁了——家里出了点事。come up表示“突然发生”。turn up虽然也可以表示“突然出现”，但主语应该是一个好的情况或机会，另外还可以表示“某物在丢失后偶然被找到”，还可以表示“（人）到达”；show up“露面，出现”；go up“上涨”。
7．C 句意：他们还没有确定替换露西的人。露西请病假了。decide on sb./sth.“确定/选定某人/某物”。
8．D in addition to “除……之外，包括”。
9．B 本题考查动词词义辨析。advance“前进”；postpone“推迟”；abandon“放弃，抛弃”；advocate“倡导”。根据句意可知正确答案。
10．D 本题考查分词短语作状语，其逻辑主语必须与主句的主语Australia一致，所以应该用被动结构；又由于Australia早已被分离，已经完成，动作发生在has动作之前，故D项正确。
11．B make good use of “好好利用……”；make great contributions to“为……做出很大贡献”。
12．D 此句意为：早五分钟，我们可能就会避免那次事故。此题考查的是“祈使句＋and＋简单句”结构。Five minutes earlier相当于一个祈使句，后面的简单句表示结果。
13．C accessible“能够进入的，能够达到的”。句意为“虽然我们的城市又小又偏僻，走水路和坐飞机都很容易到达”。approachable也可以表示能够被接近的，多形容人或某小地方如城堡、某旅游点等“容易到达的”；available意思是“能够被获得的或使用的”；acceptable意思是“能够被接受的”。
14．A 根据has been used for twenty years以及It will be available to users...可知这条路应该是正在维修，所以用under repair。under construction意思是“正在建设中的”，under way“正在进行中的”，under control“处于被控制状态中的”。
15．D listen for sth./sb.和watch out for sth./sb.中的for意思一样，所以listen for sth./sb.意思是“听听看是否有……”。listen to sth./sb.意思是“倾听（存在的事物或人）”。其余介词都是错误搭配。
Ⅲ．1．A 文章标题题。通读全文可知作者做了一些小事情而在自己遇到麻烦时得到了别人的帮助。同时第一段“I like to do little things most people wouldn't think about doing...”以及最后“When you do something kind for others，do you always get rewarded？Yes，but not in the way you might expect.”也说明了善小而为，最终得到回报。
2．C 写作意图题。第一段主要介绍了与朋友的对话，说明了要不断地做好事，哪怕这个事情很小。下文具体进行了阐述。所以第一段的目的是开门见山，直奔主题。
3．B 推理判断题。根据第四段“I once had my bike repaired，but the repairman said “no charge” on hearing my sufferings.”可知修理工听到我的遭遇后不收修车钱，因此可以推断他是对我的同情。
4．D 细节理解题。根据第四段“A stranger called James Kennedy read some pieces I'd written about our sufferings for Slate，the online magazine...”可知James Kennedy是读了作者在网络杂志上写的文章，了解了作者的遭遇。
5．C 推理判断题。本篇文章先写作者帮助别人，再写别人帮助作者，由此我们可以推断出帮助别人就意味着帮助自己。
Ⅳ．1．effective 2．prove/show/indicate 3．make one's decisions 4．Honesty 5．kept 6．what 7．stick to 8．Conclusions 9．deep values 10．be controlled

Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension（30 marks）
Directions：Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A，B，C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.
A
Many years ago my student asked me the question，“Mrs Kindred，why do you teach？”Without taking time to reflect，I answered，“Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone's life.”Even though I was sincere，that wasn't a very good answer and my student didn't let it slide.
“Let me get this straight，”he said，“You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone？”He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away looking confused.I'm one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or witty，or swift.
Even though that particular student might no longer wonder why I teach，there are days when I wonder.On those days，I remind myself of the real reasons I teach：
It's in my blood.My mother was my most influential teacher，and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990.She instilled（逐渐灌输）in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors.
Teaching is a way to make a difference.If you throw a stone in a pond the ripples go on and on until they reach the shore.You can't have ripples without a “stone”.Good teachers throw stones that make a positive difference，and that's what I strive to do.
I genuinely love teenagers.
I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years.Life is full of ups and downs，and if I can help students avoid some potholes on the road of life，I want to do so.If they'll allow me to celebrate their victories with them，I want to do too.
Teaching isn't for everyone，but I know I made the right career choice.
56．Why did the student continue to ask the question about the writer's being a teacher?
A．Because he thought her answer was unbelievable.
B．Because the writer was insincere.
C．Because the student was naughty.
D．Because the answer was difficult to understand.
57．What do you think of the writer?
A．Stupid. B．Honest. C．Conservative. D．Polite.
58．According to the text，which of the following is NOT true?
A．The writer's mother has the greatest influence on her.
B．The writer's answer made the student confused.
C．In the writer's opinion，some people in the world are unfit to teach.
D．The writer annoyed the student who asked the question.
59．We can infer from the text that ______.
A．the writer was also a good teacher in school
B．the writer often plays with her students beside a pond
C．the writer devotes herself to teaching and her students
D．the writer often accompanies the students on their way home
60．What's the main idea of the text?
A．A student's silly question. B．A good teacher who likes students.
C．A confused student. D．The reason why I teach.
B
Among various programs，TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television.And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is different in style.But no two shows are more opposite in content，while at the same time standing out above the rest，than the Jerry Springer and Oprah Winfrey shows.
Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of “rubbish talk”．The topics on his show are as surprising as can be.For example，the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love，sex，cheating，and hate，to a different level.Clearly，the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society，yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people's lives.
Like Jerry Springer，Oprah Winfrey takes the TV talk show to its top.But Oprah goes in the opposite direction.The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality of life.Contents are from teaching your children lessons，managing your work week，to getting to know your neighbors.
Compared to Oprah，the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society.Jerry ends every show with a “final word”．He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show.Hopefully，this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.
Clean as it is，the Oprah show is not for everyone.The show's main audience are middle-class Americans.Most of the people have the time，money and ability to deal with life's tough problems.Jerry Springer，on the other hand，has more of a connection with the young adults of society.These are 18-to 21 year-olds whose main troubles in life include love，relationship，sex，money and drug.They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation.
61．Compared with other TV talk shows，both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows are ______.
A．more interesting B．unusually popular
C．more detailed D．more formal
62．Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant，people who watch the shows ______.
A．show disbelief in them B．are ready to face up to them
C．remain cold to them D．are willing to get away from them
63．Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?
A．A new type of robot. B．National hatred.
C．Family income planning. D．Street accident.
64．We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows ______.
A．have become the only ones of its kind B．exploit the weaknesses in human nature
C．appear at different times of the day D．attract different people
65．What is the advantage of the Jerry Springer show?
A．The show exposes the dark sides of society.
B．The show pours poisonous waste into society.
C．Jerry sums up the whole idea of the show.
D．Jerry talks about the improvement of society.
C
Moving in with a boyfriend causes women to eat more unhealthily and put on weight.But the opposite is true for men，whose long-term health benefits when they move in with a female partner.
Dieticians at Newcastle University said both partners try to please one another，and so change their dietary habits to suit their other half.
It leads men to eat more light meals，such as salads，fruit and vegetables，while women choose to make creamier，heavier dishes curry or rich pasta sauces，which may please their partner.
Women still have the strongest long-term influence over the couple's diet and lifestyle，as they still have the traditional role of shopper and cook in most households.
The report，by Newcastle University's Human Nutrition Research Centre，reviewed the finding of a variety of research projects from the UK，North America and Australia，which looked at the eating and lifestyle habits of couples.
The research shows that women are more likely to put on weight and increase their consumption of foods high in fat and sugar when they move in with their partner.
Women also use food as a comfort when dealing with emotional stress and have been found to gain weight when a relationship ends，while the same finding has not been observed in men.
Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership，and eating together in the evening was particularly important to many.
Report author and registered dietician Dr.Amelia Lake said，“The research has shown that your partner is a strong influence on lifestyle and people who are trying to live healthier lives should take this factor into consideration.”
66．According to the passage，moving in with a girlfriend，men ______.
A．have few changes of their dietary habits
B．have to eat more unhealthy foods
C．don't like foods high in fat and sugar at all
D．try to eat foods that their girlfriends like
67．The underlined word “light”（in Paragraph 3）probably means ______.
A．not very heavy B．less in fat and sugar
C．gentle D．not serious or important
68．According to the report by Newcastle University's Human Nutrition Research Centre，______.
A．women put on weight only because they want to suit their other half
B．when men are faced with emotional stress，they will change their dietary habits
C．eating together in the evening is a good way to communicate for couples
D．it is wrong to change your dietary habits to suit your partner
69．From the passage，we can infer that ______.
A．women should pay more attention to their partner's influence on them
B．more men will play roles of shopper and cook in most households
C．couples will not change their dietary habits and lifestyle to please their partner
D．long-term health of men benefits when they move in with a female partner
70．What would be the best title for the passage?
A．Don't be silly any more，women! B．Which are better dietary habits?
C．Boyfriends make you fat D．Dr.Amelia Lake and his study

Section A（10 marks）
Directions：Read the following passage.Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
When I opened my e-mail the other day，a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen.She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm.Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss.She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother，and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give him a high-speed Internet connection.It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail.Facemail lets you send e-mail that can read mails to the receiver by an attractive male or female form or by a clown.The software，which is free，can be downloaded at www.Facemail.com.
Facemail faces are lifelike，and they copy emotions based on the ones that you put in your text.For example，type in X，and Rachel blows a kiss.
Life FX，the company that develops the Facemail is sure there are broad business uses.The reason e-business is not popular，the company says，is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch.But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name，waited on you and personally closed the sale？Besides，the company is talking with Whirlpool company about the technology in a computer screen on a fridge.Then if Mom can't be at home when the kids get back from school，she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast.Personally，I am a fan.But Facemail should be used with words in an e-mail and add angry emotions when you've got junk mails.

Section B（10 marks）
Directions：Read the following passage.Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.
Planting trees around poultry farms can improve air and water quality—and relations with neighbors.Research has shown that just three rows of trees near poultry houses can reduce the release of dust and ammonia（氨）.They can also reduce the strong odor of ammonia gas.
Lights went out at tourism landmarks and homes across the globe on Saturday for Earth Hour 2009，a global event aimed to highlight the threat from climate change.
From the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge to the Eiffel Tower in Paris and London's Houses of Parliament，lights were turned off as part of a campaign to encourage people to cut energy use and control greenhouse gas emissions from fuels.
Organizers said the action showed millions of people wanted governments to work out a strong new U.N.deal to fight global warming by the end of 2009，even though the global economic crisis has raised worries about the costs.
“We have been dreaming of a new climate deal for a long time，”Kim Carstensen，head of a global climate organization at the conservation group WWF，said in a bar in the German city of Bonn，which hosts U.N.climate talks between March 29 and April 8.
“Now we're no longer so alone with our dream.We're sharing it with all these people switching off their lights，”he said.
The UN Climate Panel says greenhouse gas emissions are warming the planet and will lead to more floods，droughts，rising sea levels and animal and plant extinctions.
World emissions have risen by about 70 percent since the 1970s.
Australia first held Earth Hour in 2007 and it went global in 2008，attracting 50 million people，organizers say.WWF，which started the event，is hoping one billion people from nearly 90 countries will take part.

参考答案
1．C 2．C 3．A 4．C 5．A 6．C 7．A
8．B 9．B 10．C 11．A 12．C 13．B 14．A
15．A 16．On the Internet/Online 17．convenient 18．Disadvantages 19．risk 20．make it perfect 21．B It was not until A did sth. that B did sth.是not until A did sth. did B do sth.的强调形式，意思是“直到A做了某事B才做某事”。句意：直到他出现不理睬跟他说话的人的习惯他的父母才意思到他有问题。
22．C It took/was some time before sb. did sth.是固定句型，意思是“一段时间之后某人做了某事”。
23．A 前句意思为“别回避批评”，故后句应该意思是“你要为你的行为后果负责”，所以答案为answer for，意思是“对……负责”，符合语境；account for sth.为“解释……，占……的比例”；contribute to sth.为“促成，主张”；adapt to sth./sb.为“调整以适应……”。
24．A 本题考查由which引导的非限制性定语从句，which替代先行词accident 在定语从句中作主语。I think 是插入语，放在which后面。
25．D 最后一句应该是表示威金斯先生的稳定信仰，所以应该用一般现在时。
26．B 现在完成时态常和一般过去时态的区别在于：前者表示过去的动作对现在的影响或持续到现在，而后者则描述该动作过去发生时的细节信息，如何时、何地、谁、方式等，和现在没有关系。故该句用一般过去时。
27．C whether it was...是由强调句的疑问句was it something from outer space that made...？变成的宾语从句，made是谓语动词，前面用that取代被强调的主语部分。
28．A 句意：她遇到那个摄影师的时候已经离婚多年了。met是一个表示点的瞬间动作，所以不能选只能和延续动作连用的while；since虽然与瞬间动作连用，但此处意思不合；until虽然也用于瞬间动作，for eight years本身就表示主句中be divorced持续的时段，而until从句也是起着此作用，故两个不能同时用。
29．D 引导词引导定语从句修饰the house。从句缺the front door的定语，不缺状语，所以排除where；用whose则多了front前面的the；which只能作主语或宾语。of which the front door ＝ the front door of which ＝ whose front door。
30．B 此处需要表语从句的引导词，引导词要在从句中作表语，从句表示“……的地方”，故用where。
31．A 从后半句可以看出，我并没有去成车站，所以前半句意为“我原本要去车站接你”，would have done表示“原本/当初要做某事”，表示对过去事情的虚拟语气。
32．D 此处，mean和young kids是被动关系，故排除掉A、B两项，另外mean是状态动词，不适合用进行时态，所以being meant不行。故只能选meant。此处以meant为核心的非谓语动词短语作非限制性定语修饰young kids。sb./sth. be meant to do意为“某人/某物按常理应该做……”。句意：小孩子应该是开开心心地和朋友在一起玩或者玩玩具的，而在这个国家却作为普通劳力来雇佣了。
33．B If your...前面应该为其主句，根据主将从现的原则，主句应用will do的谓语动词形式；另外，否定谓语部分的否定词置于句首的时候要引起部分倒装，故为will you find。
34．D habitats和soil conditions是包含关系，所以只能选such as表示“例如”。句意：有一个很重要的发现：生长环境，譬如土壤条件，对于作物的产量来说和物种的基因同等重要。that从句为discovery的同位语从句。
35．A 根据“I never believe you.”可知说话人无论如何都不能被说服，故前句意：尽管你认为你有着很好的理由，你也别指望说服我。
36．D 上文提到scared cat，此处frightened和scared同义。
37．D realize this中的this，是指its body is getting ready for action。故前后为转折关系，需用连词although连接。despite虽然也意为“尽管”，但为介词，不能接分句，只能接名词短语或代词。
38．A happen to sb.为固定搭配，意思是“发生到某人身上”。句意“类似的情况也会发生到人类身上”。
39．B 根据语境，此处应该表示“经历”的含义，故选择go through。get through为“穿过，通过，度过，完成，打通（电话）”。get on “进行，上车/船等”，go straight “直走”。
40．C 前面说人类有和老鼠类似的应激反应，老鼠的反应要么是defend itself或者run away，故此处为run。
41．C 从后面animals never face可看出，人类和动物有不同之处，而上段主要谈人鼠相似的应激反应，故为转折关系。
42．A 本段主要谈人类被情绪主宰时会做出不理性的行为或说出不理性的话。give way to our feelings意思是“被我们的情绪左右或奴役”，give way to sth./sb.意思为“给……让路，屈服于……”。
43．B 根据后面人类的非理性表现，如：said something in anger，or hit somebody，shouted at a teacher等，可知此处应该为“闯祸”之意。
44．D 和前面的regretted照应，wish后接that虚拟从句表示“悔恨当初没有管住嘴巴，说了不该说的话”。
45．C bitterness意思是“愤愤不平”，是抽象名词，和sadness，anger并列表示消极情绪。其余三个答案都是表示积极情绪，故不妥。 后面的hidden away or bottled up inside是宾语补足语，表示被隐藏或压抑住（装在瓶子里）。
46．B 前面说过如果压抑情绪会导致身体出问题（“Physical illness can develop”），故此处应该是be bad for one's health。
47．A deal with为处理或应对，宾语应该是指上文提过的所有情绪种类，故应该为them。
48．to be addicted to sth.是固定搭配，意思是“对……有瘾”。
49．where where引导定语从句修饰clinic，where在从句中作状语。
50．as as意思是“作为”，表示“吃药是治疗的一部分”。
51．needn't 根据but可知前面的分句意思应该是“她说我们没有必要不用电脑”。
52．only/just 吴医生肯定是希望我们少花时间在电脑游戏上，所以应该为“仅仅”。
53．other other...than...是“不同于……的……”，如other languages than English意思是“非英语语言”。
54．Also/Besides 和前面的doing sports有并列关系，都是除了玩电脑之外的其他休闲方式，故用“还有”。
55．when 此处应该是当我们感受到压力的时候，所以feel是一个表示时间点的动作，故用when而不用while。
56．A 根据文章前三段内容得知，作者的回答没有令该学生相信她的从教理由是那么的简单。
57．B 根据第一段的最后一句及全文内容可以排除A 项（愚蠢的）、C项（保守的）和D项（有礼貌的）。
58．D 根据文章的第四、第二、第八段分别可知选项A、B、C是正确的；“我”并未使该学生苦恼。
59．C 根据作者自己的阐述，她很热爱并献身于教育事业；其余选项文中没有提及。
60．D 从文章的结构和作者对自己为什么从教的解释得知。
61．B 根据文章的描述得知，这两种电视节目分别吸引着不同的人群。
62．B 从第二段的最后一句话可以看出。
63．C 根据第三段的最后一句话可推知。
64．D 从文章对这两种节目的描述可知，A、B项太片面，C项文中没有提及。
65．C 根据倒数第二段的倒数第二句得知。
66．D 由第三段，特别是which may please their partner可知，男女双方会改变自己的饮食习惯来迎合对方，因此男士会吃他的女伴喜欢吃的食物。
67．B 由其后所举的例子salads，fruit and vegetables可推断，light 在此是“清淡的”的意思，脂肪和糖的含量比较少。
68．C 根据倒数第二段可知C项正确。根据倒数第三段可知女士增肥不仅是因为迎合了对方的口味，还有缓解情绪的原因，故A项错误；根据倒数第三段最后while the same finding has not been observed in men可知B项错误；D项文中没有提及。
69．A 纵览全文，特别是根据短文最后一个句子可推断A项正确，B、C项错误。D项在文中第二段已经明确指出，不是推断。
70．C C项幽默风趣，能吸引读者的注意，并切中文章的主题。
71．Facemail 72．a pretty woman/Rachel
73．blow a kiss/kisses 74．Function 75．lifelike 76．Producer/Developer 77．broad business uses 78．on a fridge 79．opinion/view/point of view 80．angry/annoyed
