Jane Addams was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) born into a rich American family with a long history of public service on
September 6, 1860. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )She was the eighth child of John Huy Addams, a successful businessman,
banker, and landowner ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). Learning from her father, Jane wanted to know what she could do to help
others. Jane r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )emembered the Chicago poor areas she had seen as a child, and she thought she
might want to open ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a place and it would provide education and recreation ( 娱乐) to the poor
people there.
In 1889, Jane and h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er friend Ellen Gates made Jane's dream come true. They opened Hull
House in Chicago. Am ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ong its many activities, Hull House provided a place for poor immigrant(移
民) families to play ga ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mes, listen to poem readings or take music or painting classes.
Jane Addam's publi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )c service didn't stop with Hull House. Jane worked for laws to end child
labor(劳动力) and foug ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ht for women's rights( 权利). She worked as president of the Women's
International League ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) for Peace and Freedom and was chairman of the Women's Peace Party. Jane
Addams won the No ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )bel Peace Prize in 1931. She died on May 21, 1935. All these years later, we
still celebrate the service and life of Jane Addams.

C
Without planning, tou ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can fill public
places that are also e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )njoyed by people living in that country. If tourists create too much traffic, the
inhabitants become ang ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ry and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely.
They forget ho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )w much tourism can help the country's economy( 经济). It is important to think
about the people ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of a destination(目的地) country and what tourism brings them. Tourism should
help a country keep t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he culture and beauty that tourists are interested in. Tourism should also
improve the well-be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing ( health and happiness) of people living in the country.
Too much tourism ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other
jobs to work in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the tourism companies. This means that other parts of the country's economy may
not develop as well as before.
On the other hand, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also
lose money. It co ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sts a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, first-class roads, and
other support faci ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lities (辅助设施)needed. For example, an international-class tourism hotel can
cost as much as 50 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time,
the owners of the hotel lose money.
Building a h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )otel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including
the roads to get ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to the hotel, electricity (电), stations to deal with waste, and water. All of these
support faci ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lities cost money. If they are not used because there are no enough tourists, jobs and
money are lost.
49. The underline ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d word "inhabitants" in the first paragraph means ____________.
A. people living there B. people in the government
C. people love travelling D. businessman there
50. In the first ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) paragraph, the reason to cause the tourism problem is __________.
A. too many people. B. too much traffic.
C. tourism without plan D. too much tourism
51. What is the writer's attitude(态度) towards tourism
A. People should be polite to tourists and treat them well.
B. People should develop each part of the country's economy.
C. People should not spend lots of money building support facilities.
D. Tourism should care about the country as well as the people there.
52. What is the passage mainly about
A. Making money through developing tourism.
B. Using support facilities as much as possible.
C. Creating enough tourism to meet needs of the people.
D. Planning tourism and making it not too much or too little.
七、阅读短文,根据短文内容,从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。(共
5 分,每小题1 分)
Some schools are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )named after famous people. 53 Some school names are most
unusual. How they were chosen is anyone's guess.
There are sch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ools with names that would make a person think twice before opening the door.
The school name ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d Lookout at least warns pupils in advance. A school in Oregon is named
Tenkiller. 54
Not all unusual school ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) names are strange in a fearful (可怕的) way. 55 Who would not
feel at home in th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e school named Welcome What could go wrong in the school called Allgood
The Bright S ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )chool, located in Montana, seems to promise that much learning will take place.
Other school ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s have names neither pleasant nor fearful. 56 There are schools with
names such as Tele ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )phone, and Ducktown. For names to make us smile, what can match
Bushyhead in the state of Georgia
Do you think you ca ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n find the Nonesuch School If you look carefully at the word, you will
see that its name sa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ys there is no such school. 57 The Nonesuch School is found in
( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )
八、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。(共10 分,每小题2 分。)
Have you heard abou ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t "Survival (生存) Holidays" "Survival Holidays" is for children to go
into the lonely place ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )for exciting activities. Now about 1,100 companies are allowed to take
children into the great outdoors without their parents.
The reason why ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )people like "Survival Holidays" is that they think being close to nature is
good for children ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer
games. "Survival Holidays" gives them an important change.
Is "Survival H ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )olidays" a wonderful idea Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play.
They need to be left o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n their own, without adults disturbing (打扰) them. Parents care too
much about their chil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )dren. They like to see the children being busy with activities that are
controlled by adults, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )but children don't know what to do when they are in danger. Even something
like crossing a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger.
Even small danger like ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.
Many people t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hink the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will
still remembe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some
have learned how t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o keep safe. Others have learned how to work in a team. All these skills will
help them a lot in their lives.
58. Is "Survival Holidays" for children or parents
59. Why do people like "Survival Holidays"
60. How do children feel when they are in danger
61. What can children learn in the survival activities
62. What is the passage mainly about

72. One possible version:
Dear Mike,
Glad to hear f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rom you again! In your letter you told me you wanted to develop a hobby and
you needed my ad ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )vice. Just as you know, many people have hobbies, so do my classmates. Some
of them are intere ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sted in relaxing hobbies, such as reading, painting and listening to music, others
enjoy active hobbies like swimming and playing basketball.
In my opinion, act ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ive hobbies are good choices for you. You usually spend too much time
studying and sitt ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing for too long time. So you'd better take some sports to keep fit, such as
swimming, running ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and playing basketball. I think you can get a lot from doing sports. First of all,
if you so sports, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) you'll feel relaxed and happy. Also, you can make friends when you do sports.
Wish my advice could give you some help.
Yours,
Li Ming
