A
When the population of the port town began to suffer from poisoning ,the police came to find the cause of the poison .They thought someone was poisoning the people on purpose but no one knew how it was possible .Soon people took the position that the pork was poisoned .It was a popular food everyone ate and it could have possibly made everyone sick. Anyone who had possession of pork would throw it out .Even the poorest of the poor wouldn’t eat pork .Signs were posted on poles and letters were went to everyone to warn people of the pork .Shortly afterwards ,even policemen in high positions were also getting sick.
Soon it became political and popular .Politicians rushed to the town to talk about politics and promised how they would find the solution if they were elected. Everyone was so sick that they didn’t care about politics .Everyone was in a position where he or she didn’t know what to do anymore .They went to the post office to mail posts out asking for help .The poor town didn’t know how to deal with the situation.
One day, a well-known scientist from New York came to the town with a huge box containing many instruments and his possessions .He went to pools and the port and made measurements. He was quiet and polite .The one day he made a speech at a newspaper meeting-room to announce his findings.
“I am sorry to say your water supply is so heavily polluted; it is poisoned .I know who has been poisoning you all for such a long time. It is you who have been poisoning yourselves with pollution. A great deal of rubbish has been thrown into the water day after day. No one here has taken good care of the environment .It is no wonder all of you have been sick.” Shocked at the news, the people present were lost in thought.

a. People suffered from poisoning.
b. Politicians came to make promises.
c. People began to realize the real cause.
d. Pork was thrown away.
e. The water there was polluted.

A．e, a ,d ,b ,f ,c B．e, a ,d ,c ,f ,b C．a, e ,b ,d ,c, f D．f, c ,d ,b ,e ,a
57．What does the underlined phrase “took the position” mean in the passage ?
A．took the job B．took the place C．held the opinion D．made the suggestion
58．Which of the following statements is correct?
A．Everyone was so sick of politics that they didn’t care about those politicians.
B．According to the scientist from New York , not all the population in the town have taken
good care of the environment.
C．The reason why the people in the town got sick was that they ate the pork poisoned by
the heavily polluted water.
D．If the people in the town hadn’t polluted the water supply ,they would not have suffered
from poisoning or sickness.
59．After reading the passage , we can infer that .
A．politicians took every chance to make themselves elected

B
Are you preparing for a big test ? If so ,you may want to go play some basketball in between hitting the books .Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. Judy Cameron ,a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University ,studies brain development .According to her research ,it seems that exercise can make blood vessels（血管）,including those in the brain ,stronger and more fully developed .Dr . Cameron is sure that this allows people who exercise to think better .As she says , “while we already know that exercise is good for the heart, exercise can actually cause physical changes in the brain.”
The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies .Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active .Even a little movement can show big results .Margaret Barnes ,a scientist ,also believes in the importance of exercise .She thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a lack of movement as babies . “Babies need movement that encourages and excites their five senses .They need to set up a connection between motion and memory . In this way ,as they get older ,children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning,” says Margaret.
Older people can develop their brains as well. Cornell University studied a group of seniors who have a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult ,but it does have to increase the heart rate . Also ,just like the motion for babies ,exercise for older people should not be too simple. Learning some new skills or actions ,such as with yoga or tai-chi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. For most people ,any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful . The main aim is to increase the brain’s flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week.
60．What is the main idea of this passage?
A．How exercise makes people strong. B．How to get good scores on a test.
C．How exercise helps the brain. D．How the brain can change.
61．According to the passage ,what is the connection between exercise and brain development?
A．Exercise helps make our blood vessels.
B．Physical exercise helps us think better.
C．The brain needs special mental exercise.
D．The more exercise ,the bigger the brain.
62．The smallest amount of exercise required to gain any benefit is .
A．three hours per week B．40 hours per week
C．three hours per day D．40 hours per month
63．Why is yoga suggested for seniors?
A．It does good to the joints of old people.
B．It does not increase the heart rate.
C．It includes learning new actions.
D．It can be done in groups.

Dr Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September 2001. It is the largest study of humour. Participants are invited to log on to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favourite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.
The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the world’s funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researches want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.
This is a subject that has long interested psychologists（心理学家）and philosophers（哲学家）. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves.
By December 2001 over 10, 000 jokes had been submitted. This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humour, for instance.
“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humour, ” said Dr. Wiseman. “Males use humour to appear superior（优越）to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play. ”
Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humour. the British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humour”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “You’re a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for 500?” “Yes. What’s the second question?”
The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humour. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I don’t know, but let’s say yes, just to be safe.
Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us.
67．Scientist started“ the laugh lab” project________
A. to find the funniest joke in European countries
B. to know what funny people are from different nations and cultures
C. to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour
D. to get more personal details about participants
68．We can infer from the passage that________.
A. most of the people all over he world are completely honest
B. psychologists and philosophers take interest in the “laugh lab” project
C. ordinary people are not interested in “the laugh lab” project at all
D. people tell the truth about themselves only when they laugh
69．What is the main idea of the 4th and 5th paragraph?
A. Man and woman have different senses of humour.
B. Male and female have similar senses of humour.
C. About 10, 000 jokes have been submitted from September 2001 to December 2001.
D. Scientists have collected enough evidence to make conclusions.
70．The writer gave the examples of the British, the French and the Germans________.
A. to show thane French people have a better sense of humour
B. to prove the British people have a sense of “toilet humour”
C. to show people from different nations have different senses of humour
D. to prove that the Germans have no sense of humour
71．Which statement is true according to the passage?
A. The jokes by computer are less funny than those by humans.
B. The Germans cannot find the submitted jokes amusing.
C. Males are better at word play compared with women.
D. Females like to use humour to show that they are superior.
E
Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad (great number) of services, including labor, professions, transportation, and public-utility services. The interrelationship of all these prices make the “system” of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.
If one were to ask a group of randomly selected individuals to define “price”, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in market transaction(交易). This definition is, of course, effective as far it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the money involved must be known. Both the buyer and seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees on the product or service, delivery terms, return privilege, and other factors. In other words, both the buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors that compose the total “package” being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.
72．What is the best title for the passage?
A．The Weaknesses for the Price System.
B．The Complexities of the Price System.
C．Transportation and the Price System.
D．Products and Services.
73．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a factor in the complete understanding of price?
A．Instructions that come with a product.
B．The quantity of a product.
C．The quality of a product.
D．Guarantees that cover a product.
74．In the last sentence, the word “they” refers to ___________.
A．return privileges B．buyers and sellers
C．cash and credits D．all the factors
75．The paragraph following the passage most likely discusses _____________.
A．unusual ways to advertise products
B．types of payment plans for service
C．theories about how products affect different levels of society
D．how certain elements of a price “package” influence its market value

One day, I was walking home after school. On my way home, I saw a man throwing something onto the ground. The ground immediately looked dirty. So I picked up the waste paper and threw it into the dustbin. Thinking that I had to find a way to stop such bad behavior, I brought out a piece of paper and wrote a notice which said, “Please don’t throw any waste onto the ground!” then I put the notice against the tree. Seeing the notice, the man’s face turned red. He said to me, “I’m sorry. You are a good boy.” After that, I went away happily.

Anyone who had possession of pork would throw it out .Even the poorest of the poor wouldn’t eat pork .Signs were posted on poles and letters were went to everyone to warn people of the pork .Shortly afterwards ,even policemen in high positions were also getting sick.
Soon it became political and popular .Politicians rushed to the town to talk about politics and promised how they would find the solution if they were elected. Everyone was so sick that they didn’t care about politics .Everyone was in a position where he or she didn’t know what to do anymore .They went to the post office to mail posts out asking for help .The poor town didn’t know how to deal with the situation.
One day, a well-known scientist from New York came to the town with a huge box containing many instruments and his possessions .He went to pools and the port and made measurements. He was quiet and polite .The one day he made a speech at a newspaper meeting-room to announce his findings.
“I am sorry to say your water supply is so heavily polluted; it is poisoned .I know who has been poisoning you all for such a long time. It is you who have been poisoning yourselves with pollution. A great deal of rubbish has been thrown into the water day after day. No one here has taken good care of the environment .It is no wonder all of you have been sick.” Shocked at the news, the people present were lost in thought.

A．took the job B．took the place C．held the opinion D．made the suggestion
58．Which of the following statements is correct?
A．Everyone was so sick of politics that they didn’t care about those politicians.
B．According to the scientist from New York , not all the population in the town have taken
good care of the environment.
C．The reason why the people in the town got sick was that they ate the pork poisoned by
the heavily polluted water.

Are you preparing for a big test ? If so ,you may want to go play some basketball in between hitting the books .Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. Judy Cameron ,a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University ,studies brain development .According to her research ,it seems that exercise can make blood vessels（血管）,including those in the brain ,stronger and more fully developed .Dr . Cameron is sure that this allows people who exercise to think better .As she says , “while we already know that exercise is good for the heart, exercise can actually cause physical changes in the brain.”
The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies .Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement and physical activity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active .Even a little movement can show big results .Margaret Barnes ,a scientist ,also believes in the importance of exercise .She thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a lack of movement as babies . “Babies need movement that encourages and excites their five senses .They need to set up a connection between motion and memory . In this way ,as they get older ,children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning,” says Margaret.
Older people can develop their brains as well. Cornell University studied a group of seniors who have a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult ,but it does have to increase the heart rate . Also ,just like the motion for babies ,exercise for older people should not be too simple. Learning some new skills or actions ,such as with yoga or tai-chi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. For most people ,any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful . The main aim is to increase the brain’s flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week.
60．What is the main idea of this passage?
A．How exercise makes people strong. B．How to get good scores on a test.
C．How exercise helps the brain. D．How the brain can change.
61．According to the passage ,what is the connection between exercise and brain development?
A．Exercise helps make our blood vessels.
B．Physical exercise helps us think better.
C．The brain needs special mental exercise.
D．The more exercise ,the bigger the brain.
62．The smallest amount of exercise required to gain any benefit is .
A．three hours per week B．40 hours per week
C．three hours per day D．40 hours per month
63．Why is yoga suggested for seniors?

Dr Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September 2001. It is the largest study of humour. Participants are invited to log on to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favourite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.
The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the world’s funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researches want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.
This is a subject that has long interested psychologists（心理学家）and philosophers（哲学家）. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves.
By December 2001 over 10, 000 jokes had been submitted. This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humour, for instance.
“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humour, ” said Dr. Wiseman. “Males use humour to appear superior（优越）to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play. ”
Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humour. the British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humour”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “You’re a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for 500?” “Yes. What’s the second question?”
The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humour. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I don’t know, but let’s say yes, just to be safe.
Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us.
67．Scientist started“ the laugh lab” project________
A. to find the funniest joke in European countries
B. to know what funny people are from different nations and cultures
C. to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour
D. to get more personal details about participants

B. psychologists and philosophers take interest in the “laugh lab” project
C. ordinary people are not interested in “the laugh lab” project at all
D. people tell the truth about themselves only when they laugh

D. Scientists have collected enough evidence to make conclusions.

A. to show thane French people have a better sense of humour
B. to prove the British people have a sense of “toilet humour”

Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad (great number) of services, including labor, professions, transportation, and public-utility services. The interrelationship of all these prices make the “system” of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.
If one were to ask a group of randomly selected individuals to define “price”, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in market transaction(交易). This definition is, of course, effective as far it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the money involved must be known. Both the buyer and seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees on the product or service, delivery terms, return privilege, and other factors. In other words, both the buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors that compose the total “package” being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.
72．What is the best title for the passage?
A．The Weaknesses for the Price System.
B．The Complexities of the Price System.
C．Transportation and the Price System.
D．Products and Services.
73．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a factor in the complete understanding of price?
A．Instructions that come with a product.
B．The quantity of a product.
C．The quality of a product.
D．Guarantees that cover a product.
74．In the last sentence, the word “they” refers to ___________.
A．return privileges B．buyers and sellers
C．cash and credits D．all the factors
75．The paragraph following the passage most likely discusses _____________.
A．unusual ways to advertise products
B．types of payment plans for service
C．theories about how products affect different levels of society
D．how certain elements of a price “package” influence its market value

One day, I was walking home after school. On my way home, I saw a man throwing something onto the ground. The ground immediately looked dirty. So I picked up the waste paper and threw it into the dustbin. Thinking that I had to find a way to stop such bad behavior, I brought out a piece of paper and wrote a notice which said, “Please don’t throw any waste onto the ground!” then I put the notice against the tree. Seeing the notice, the man’s face turned red. He said to me, “I’m sorry. You are a good boy.” After that, I went away happily.
