I was feeling 43 and had lost hope of playing basketball. 44 , something changed the first day of high school. I made some friends who also enjoyed playing basketball. They 45 me to get back on the court.
One of them told me with a smile, "Go your own 46 , let others talk." This girl would always play basketball with me. Even the boy who sat next to me in class talked about 47 with me almost every day.

A
The fitness movement that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s centered around aerobic exercise（有氧操）. Millions of individuals became engaged in a variety of aerobic activities, and literally thousands of health spas developed around the country to capitalize（获利）on this emerging interest in fitness, particularly aerobic dancing for females. A number of fitness spas came before this aerobic fitness movement, even a national chain with spas in most major cities. However, these fitness spas did not seem to benefit financially form the aerobic fitness movement to better health, since medical opinion suggested that weight-training programs offered few, if any, health benefits. In recent years, however, weight training has again become increasingly popular for males and for females. Many current programs focus not only on developing muscular strength and endurance but on aerobic fitness as well.
Historically, most physical-fitness tests have usually included measures of muscular strength and endurance, not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performance in athletics. However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs designed primarily to improve muscular strength and endurance might also offer some health benefits as well. The American College of Sports Medicine now recommends that weight training be part of a total fitness program for healthy Americans. Increased participation in such training is one of the specific physical activity and fitness objectives of Healthy People 2000: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives.
56. The underlined word "spas" in the first paragraph most probably refers to ____.
A．sports activities C．entertainment centers
B．places for physical exercise D．athletic training programs
57. Early fitness spas were intended mainly for ____.
A．the promotion of aerobic exercise B．endurance and muscular development
C．the improvement of women's figures D．better performance in aerobic dancing
58. What was the attitude of doctors towards weight training in health improvement?
A．Positive. B．Active. C．Negative. D．Cautious.
59. People were given physical fitness tests in order to find out ____ .
A．how well they could do in athletics
B．what their health condition was like
C．what kind of fitness center was suitable for them
D．whether they were fit for aerobic exercise
60. Recent studies have suggested that weight training ________.
A．has become an essential part of people's life
B．may well affect the health of the trainees
C．will attract more people in the days to come
D．contributes to health improvement as well
B
In ancient Greece athletic festivals were very important and had strong religious associations.
The Olympian athletic festival, held every four years in honor of Zeus, eventually lost its local character, became first a national event, and then, after the rules against foreign competitors had been waived , international. No one knows exactly how far back the Olympic Games go, but some official records date from 776 B.C. The Games took place in August on the plain by Mount Olympus. Many thousands of spectators(观众）gathered from all parts of Greece, but no woman was admitted even as a spectator. Slaves, women and dishonored persons were not allowed to compete. The exact sequence (顺序) of events is uncertain, but events included boys’ gymnastics, horse racing, field events such as discus and javelin throwing, and the very important foot races. There was also boxing and wrestling and special tests of varied ability such as the pentathlon, the winner of which excelled in running, jumping, discus and javelin throwing and wrestling. The evening of the third day was devoted to sacrificial offerings （祭品） to the heroes of the day, and the fourth day, that of the full moon, was set aside as a holy day. On the sixth and last day, all the victors were crowned with holy garlands(花冠) of wild olive from a sacred wood. So great was the honor that the winner of the foot race gave his name to the year of his victory. Although Olympic winners received no prize money, they were, in fact, richly rewarded by their state authorities. The public honor also made the strict discipline of the ten month training period worthwhile. In spite of the lengthy training, however, runners were known to drop dead from tiredness at the winning post. After an uninterrupted history of almost 1,200 years, the Games were abolished（取消） in A.D. 394, the Christian era, because of their pagan (异教的) origin. It was over 1,500 years before there was another such international athletics gathering. The Greek institution was brought back in 1896 and the first small meeting took place in Athens. After the 1908 London Olympics, success was reestablished and nations sent their best representatives. In times of peace, the Games have taken place ever since at four yearly intervals.? 61.The first Olympic Games most probably took place ________. A. in 776 B.C. B. in 394 A.D. C. before 776 B.C. D. 1,500 years ago
62. The word “waived” in the first paragraph can be replaced by ________. A. applied B. abolished C. accepted D. argued
63. The order of athletic events at the ancient Olympic Games ________. A. was carefully planned B. varied according to the phases of the moon C. was not definitely set D. was decided by authorities
64. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. The Games took place now and then before 394 A.D.
B. During the ancient Games, the heroes were honored with sacrificial offerings on the evening before the moon was full.
C. So rigorous and so exhausting was the training that some athletes died of tiredness.?
D. The ancient Olympic Games was originally held for religious purpose. 65. The best title for the passage might be ________. A. The Development of the Olympic Games B. The History of the Olympic Games
C. The Origin of the Olympic Games D. The Rules of the Olympic Games

The Rugby World Cup, won on 22nd November by England, led to a feel-good mood even among people who didn’t usually follow rugby. Millions of television viewers cheered as fly-half Jonny Wilkinson scored the winning points with a drop-goal in the final minutes of extra time. The following Saturday more than 750,000 people turned out to cheer England's players on their victory parade in an open top bus through the streets of central London. This was followed by tea with The Queen at Buckingham Palace and a reception at Downing Street hosted by the Prime Minister.
The players were awarded honors in the New Year Honors List. These honors are awarded on merit, for exceptional achievement or merit in a number of fields. The England Rugby team coach, Clive Woodward, was knighted - so he becomes 'Sir Clive'. All the members of the team received an award, in contrast to the last time an England team won a World Cup. That was back in 1966, when England beat West Germany to win the Football World Cup. Some members of that team had to wait 30 years for official recognition.
Just before this year's Honors List was published it was revealed that some people who had been offered an award had decided not to accept it. Among the titles that are awarded are MBE (Member of the British Empire), OBE (Order of the British Empire) and CBE (Commander of the British Empire). It is this reference to an empire which no longer exists that has annoyed them.
Other countries have found the benefits of sport can be widespread. Australia hosted the last Olympic Games in 2000 and was widely praised for their success. The 2004 Games will be held in Athens, which is using the occasion to improve transport and other facilities, and the 2008 Games will be held in Beijing, which plans to build new metro lines and carry out environmental improvements.
66．A victory parade took place through London streets so as to ________.
A. greet those soldiers who returned from Iraq.
B. celebrate their victory in World War II>
C. celebrate their victory in the Rugby World Cup
D. celebrate the Queen’s birthday.
67. Form this passage we know that ______.
A. a tea party was given by the Queen at Buckingham Palace
B. that Queen attended a tea party to share the victory
C. the Prime Minister hosted the tea party
D. the Queen attended the reception at Downing Street
68. The second paragraph mainly tells us that _______.
A. Clive Woodward was highly praised by the British government
B. all the team members were praised by the government
C. all the members who won the Football World Cup were awarded
D. all the members who won the Football World Cup were not awarded
69. Some people refused to accept the titles because _______.
A. they are of little value. B. they don’t want the government to praise them
C. they chose to be unknown D. all the titles refer to an empire
70. Form the last paragraph we know that ______.
A. all countries try to make use of the Olympic Games to improve something in their country.
B. Athens will improve their environmental conditions
C. metro lines will be built throughout China by 2008
D. some countries still haven’t realized the importance of Olympic Games
D
In my view, Beijing should host the 2008 Olympic Games for the following nine reasons:
Improved natural environment: Beijing has been renovated and made green, and has much fresher air than before. Thousands of vehicles have been reported unserviceable or have been equipped with catalytic（催化剂的）converters（转换器）.After only one year of measures such as these, the air quality has improved appreciably, and there is once more a blue sky Beijing citizens can appreciate.
Telecommunications: The Internet, which was unknown not so long ago, is everywhere now, and the number of users doubles every six months. This is also the case for fixed and mobile phones. During the Olympic Games the media will have access to the most modern technology when transmitting their report worldwide.
Transport: Beijing has four ring roads, and a fifth is under construction. Some 9,400 buses transport over 5 billion people yearly. The east-west subway line has been completed and connected and another line is under construction.
International events: Each year, Beijing hosts major events like the Fourth World Conference on Women in 1995, the China-Africa Symposium（论坛）2000, and sports events like Asian Games. It has now acquired all the experience and facilities necessary to hold such events.
English: More and more taxi drivers and other public employees study English and are eager to practice their new language skills with their foreign customers. It never fails to surprise me when Chinese people speak to me in English in stores, markets and other public places.
Green Beijing: I realized long ago how green Beijing is compared with other large cities of the world I have visited. By 2008 vegetation coverage in Beijing will reach 40 percent, providing an average of 10 square metres of green space per resident.
Water: The 30 rivers, 26 lakes in and around the city, and moats（护城河）around the Forbidden City were dredged（疏通）and cleaned in the year of 2000. The river system now features clear water and green banks, and ducks and swans have returned.
Heritage（遗产）：Chins has introduced laws to protect the historical heritage of its cities during the current urban construction drive. Planers follow regulations to preserve historic streets and houses.
Olympics spirit：For developed countries, hosting the Olympics means huge expenses and small profits, but for a developing country, it is a chance to progress. Paris and Toronto are also bidding for the 2008 Games, but my French and Canadian friends, like myself, support the Beijing bid.
71. What nationality is the author of the passage?
A. Chinese. B. French. C. Canadian. D. Unknown.
72. What has the Beijing municipal government done with the vehicles in Beijing?
A. Thousands have been kept from service.
B. All have been equipped with catalytic converters.
C. Measures will be taken to reduce fuel emission.
D.Both A and C.
73. According to the passage, it is hoped that ______.
A. more buses will be put into service in 2008
B. a fifth ring road will be under construction by 2008
C. a new subway line, besides the east-west line will be under construction by 2008
D. the 5 ring roads will help the traffic service a lot in 2008
74. The author of the passage suggests that _______.
A. more international events be held in Beijing
B. taxi drivers and other public employees learn English for the 2008 Olympics
C. vegetation coverage and river system be brought to a higher standard by 2008.
D. none of the above.
75. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. The most modern technology will be put into service for the media to cover the Olympic events.
B. 37 percent of Beijing is historic sites and need protection.
C. The taxi drivers and public employees are ready for the 2008 Beijing Olympics
D. The 2008 Olympics will mean huge profits and progress for Beijing.

Ⅱ.阅读表达（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15分）
The 2008 Beijing Olympic Games is drawing near. All of us are looking forward to it. Are you eager to enjoy watching the matches or start serving as a volunteer? First, you need to know about audience manner.
The behavior of courtside audiences is considered to be an important part of sporting culture. In 2004, after world champion Stephen Hendry lost to Ding Junhui in the China Open Snooker Championships, he complained of the noise from Chinese spectators. Perhaps you and your classmates could discuss how to behave while in the audience at the Olympic Games.
Most sporting arenas have rules for spectators written on the back of the tickets. Read your ticket carefully before you arrive. Try to reach your seat half an hour before the start of the event and don’t leave when a game is in progress. When you leave, remember to take away your soft drink bottles and other trash(垃圾).
During exciting games, try to control yourself. Don’t criticize the performance of players and coaches. Be careful with your words, since some may cause anger among other people in the audience.
Applause is a special form of body language you can use to communicate with players. But you should do it properly. When players first appear, clap your hands together ________, but don’t go on for too long. After an excellent performance, applaud warmly. If someone fails, your applause will help encourage them.
Applause is not welcome, however, while a game is in progress and players need to keep their concentration. Various sports have various rules for the audience.
Enjoying artistic gymnastics requires silence. But lots of cheering can really help basketball and football players. Snooker and table tennis courtside behavior includes a ban on flash photography. Mobile phones are not allowed in shooting centers.
To be a good spectator, you should take time to learn the game-specific rules and related culture of each event.

3.Wang Ping, a free?lance?(自由职业者) said, “In my opinion, what really counts is not failure itself, but what we think of failure and do after failure. As long as we don’t give up and believe in ourselves, and in the meantime learn something from failure, we’ll certainly make our marks in this world in the end.”
4. Uncle Fred, a stamp collector I have been collecting stamps at my leisure time for ten years I am so greatly interested in it that it has become a hobby with which I can’t part. I want to be a stamp-collecting NO.1 in my country.
5. Li Ying, a senior student said, “It is true that vocabulary is very important in English study. With a small vocabulary, we cannot understand well, neither can we express ourselves”
“In my opinion, the best way is to read more: no matter they are English newspapers, magazines, or the textbooks. Why not have a try? It really works!”

A. Nowadays all Chinese are sparing no effort to build a harmonious society. A society without warfare, conflict, starvation and terror; A society that is full of dream, amity（友好）, equality and solidarity（团结）.

B. Stamp-collecting is a never-ending pleasure as well as an education for someone. As you wander through the album from China to India, from South Africa to France, you can learn many facts and historic data about distant lands, details of foreign customs, arts, literature and culture. Stamp-collecting makes you contented, with no time for boredom.
C. College graduates are now leaving school with not only a diploma, but also with more debt than in any other period in history.

Unit 2 答案
[答案解析]
听力部分
1—5：BCBAC 6—10：AABAB 11—15：CABAC 16—20： ACCBA
单选答案
21．C Yes, please.=Yes, you may“可以”；、"Why not?"更常见的用法是用作说话人向对方提出一个建议的回答，意思是“好啊为什么不呢？”，显然不和语境；Yes, not at all是别人答谢时的用语。
22．A “我们的国家不再是以前那个样子”；此题考查的是what引导的表语从句，故答案为A。
23．A 由句意得知句子的谓语动词应用被动语态，故排除BC两项；不定式不能作谓语，故排除D。A项是现在进行时的被动作谓语，表示一个正在进行的被动动作。句意为“申请这个岗位的人正在办公室里面试。”
24．A whether引导主语从句，what与how引导的名词性从句作介词on的宾语。what在从句中作宾语，how作方式状语。
25．A related to their jobs是后置定语，修饰accidents and diseases。Related是形容词，表示“相关的”。句意为“一则最新报道声明，每年大约有两百万人死于与工作有关的事或疾病。”
26．B relate sth to sth 把……与……联系起来；keep in touch with与某人保持联系；be related to 与……有联系。
27．A B、C两项都可以表示“宣布，声明”；D项表示“报道”，均不符合句意。句意为“也许你不喜欢这个新来的人，但你必须承认她很擅长自己的工作。”
28．A as much as和as many as都表示数量多达……，但前者修饰不可数名词或表程度，而后者则修饰可数名词；as long as表示时间或物体的长度，或作连词，意思是“只要”；as hot as“象…一样热”。根据句意，选A。
29．D 由句意得知，应用将来时态表示将要发生的事情。句意为“尽管人们可以通过电视第一时间获得新闻，但电视不可能完全取代报纸。”
30．A in charge负责；in public当众, 公开地；in turn依次, 轮流；in control在控制之下/中，根据题意，选A。
31．C 在in which引导的定语从句中，含有take a part in (doing) sth.结构，表示“在……中起作用”。句意为“很明显，全世界正在经历一场社会革命，而科学家和技术工作者注定在其中起着中坚作用。”
32．C 当as well as修饰句子的主语时，句子的谓语动词应与前面的主语在人称和数上保持一致，由此可排除A、B两项。Interne和play之间是主动关系，故排除D。
33．A. “must + have + 过去分词”表示对过去的推测。
34．A worthwhile adj. 值得的，重要的，有趣的，可构成be worthwhile to do/ doing sth.；join in和take part in一般指参加某项活动；attend多指参加会议，演讲等；join 一般是参加一种组织，如Party（党）或者可以是join sb.，所以选A。
35．D????by the time要求用完成时；we arrive从句中动词现在时表示将来。根据该句语境及其句意可知，该句选项动作表示将来完成的动作。答案为D。本题易误选B。
【教学启示】根据语境注意区别一般将来时与将来完成时的用法，将来完成时与现在完成进行时的用法。
完形答案
36—40：BACBC 41—45：BCBDB 46—50：CDDBC 51—55：DBAAC
36．C 上文silently watch和really envied暗示了该空应填never．下文介绍的成长过程中“我”无法享受对篮球的爱也是选择线索。
37．D
38．B 一开始“我”可以自由打篮球，因为我只是个小孩，没有人会介意。
39．A 与上文it was always the boys who played basketball形成对照，应填only，表示人们对男女生学校活动的性别刻板化印象。
40．C 在家里父母也不让“我”打篮球．A项搭配不对。
41．D
42．D 甚至当“我”去和朋友们打篮球时，男孩们也盯着“我”看(不理解)，就好像“我”是个外星人似的。用stare at表示“盯着”。glare指“怒视”，不妥。glance指“瞥一眼”。根据语境，文中要表达的意息应是其他男孩不解地盯着自己。
43．B 学校不谁、家庭不让、男孩不理解使“我”打篮球的梦想根本无法实现，“我”感到心情沮丧。feel down引申为“感觉沮丧的”。
44．C 下文交待“我”新交的朋友鼓励“我”重新回到篮球场，这一转机在当时是无法预料的，故填unexpectedly．
45．A 他们鼓励“我’回到篮球场。
46．B 走你自己的路，让别人去说吧。
47．A 本文话题是篮球与女生，因此该空应填basketball。
48．D 在朋友们的鼓励与引导下，自信、激情又回到“我”心中。
49．C
50．B 篮球已变成“我”生命的一部分。
51．C 通过篮球，我不但感到幸福、自信，而且还学到很多东西。
52．A “我”逐渐意识到生活就像打篮球。
53．B
54．C 你首先应该有一个目标，然后应自信，并且不停地走下去。
55．B 这个格言能够表达“我”对篮球的强烈感情。
56．D 推理判断题。科学家的最终目的是寻找地下矿物，而且文章中提到的metal，gold，silver，uranium都属于minerals的范畴，故选D。
阅读答案
A篇 56—60：BBDAD
56. B 语义判断题。先从数量判断，选项A体育活动和选项D运动员训练项目都不现实。从主题看，本段开头讲健身运动，可以排除C娱乐中心。正确选项B体育锻炼场所既符合谈论的主题，又符合原文与动词develop（发展）的搭配习惯，数量上也合情合理。
57. B 细节理解题。依据为第一段第6行始“... but rather on weight-training programs designed to develop muscular mass, strength ,and endurance in their primarily male enthusiasm”.
58. D 细节判断题。做对该题关健在于考生需仔细审题，特别注意该题的时态是过去时。再依据第一段 “…，since medical opinion suggested that weight-training programes offered few, if any, health benefits,”可以看出医生的态度是“谨慎的”。C)是二类错误：与原文有一些联系，但重合度不足。
59. A 细节理解题。依据是第二段开头“Historically, most physical-fitness have usually included…，not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performance in athletics.”其中performance in athletics对应选项A的内容，所以说， A项为正确答案。
60. D 细节理解题。该题较简单。只需正确理解一句话，即可选出正确答案。也就是第二段第二句“ However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs ... might also offer some health benefits as well.”这正是D项内容。
B篇答案：61—65：CBCAB
本文讲述了奥运会的历史。在古希腊运动节日是很重要的，与宗教有着很紧密的联系。没有人能够知道奥运会究竟始于哪一年，但正式的记载是公元前776，运动会于八月在靠近奥林匹斯山的平原上举行，来自希腊各地的数千人观看了比赛。但妇女不允许观看。奴隶，妇女和不忠实的人不允许参赛。运动会由于异教的起源，于公元394年被禁止举行。一千五百多年后于1896运动后恢复举行。 61. C。判断推理题。文中提到没人知道奥林匹克运动会究竟源于哪一年，但正式的记载始于
776B.C.，也就是说奥运会在公元前776年以前就已开始举行了。所以应选C项。 62. B。词义猜测题。对于熟悉的词汇，我们可以从上下文来推断其意思。上文提到奥运会先是变成全
国性的赛事，后来由于不许外国运动员参加的规则被waived，奥运会就成为国际性的了。可
想而知，当然是由于不许外国运动员参加的规则被废除了，奥运会才成为国际性的赛事。所
以应选B项。A“采用”，C“接受”，D“争论”，都不符合原文的意思。
63. C。细节理解题。第二段写到运动项目的顺序并不确定，但未说明原因，只是详细介绍了七天比
赛的具体过程。因此经过比较可判断出D项是合适的答案。而A项“周详地计划过”，这显然与文中说的不确定意思相悖。B“根据月亮而变动”文中只提到第四天，月满那天被规定为圣日。但月相并不影响其他安排, 所以不正确。D项“由权贵决定”文中提到奥运会的赢家会受到权贵的奖赏，但未曾提到权贵能决定运动项目的顺序，所以不正确。
64. A。判断正误题。本题要求在理解全文的基础上用排除法做。A项“奥运会在公元394年前就有间
隔地举行”但文中第四段段首提到在公元394年以前的1200年中奥运会每年都举行，从未中断过。直至公元394年被废除。因此A项与原文不相符。应选A。B项“在古代运动会中，人们在满月的前一天晚上授予英雄们供奉物，以兹奖励”，在文中第二段段末也明确提到，在运动会的第三天晚上，人们将供奉物授予当天的英雄，而第四天则为满月日，被定为圣日。因此B项与原文相符。不应选B项。C项“训练是如此严酷和疲惫以致一些运动员累死了”文中第三段段末也提到有的运动员由于过度运动而死去。因此C项与原文相符，不应选C项。D项“古代奥运会最初是为了宗教目的而举行的”这在文章开头就明确地提到了。文中写道“古希腊的运动节是十分重要且与宗教相联系的”，所以A符合原文，不应选。
65.答案B。主旨大意题。给文章选题目也是对读者理解概括能力的考察。因此，要在理解整篇文章 ?? 的基础上选出最能体现文章中心大意的题目。此文主要叙述奥运会从古到今的历程与一些具 ?? 体历史事件，是一种叙述历史的文章，因此最贴切的题目应为B项“奥运会的历史”。
C篇答案：66—70：CBBDA
66. C 细节理解题。第一段就告诉我们英国对在橄榄球世界杯上获得了冠军。
67. B 细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句可知答案。
68. B 主旨大意题。本段的内容是讲所有队员获奖情况，其中讲到了教练被封为爵士，其他队员也分别受到了相应的奖励。
69. D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知答案。
70. A 细节理解题。最后一段的开头句就是主题句。从本段我们可以看出，每个国家都想好好地利用奥运会这个机会来提高自己国家某些不足的地方。
D篇答案：71—55：DADDA
71．D 细节理解题。文章最后只提及but my French and Canadian friends, like myself, support the Beijing bid.由此不能推断出“我”是那国人。
72．A 推理判断题。 根据第二段中的Thousands of vehicles have been reported unserviceable…一句表明。Unserviceable意为“不能使用的”。此句意为“成千上万辆机动车被禁止使用，所以A符合此意。
73．D 推理判断题。选项A明显有误（上题已表明）；BC也与原文不符。文中表明“a fifth ring road”和“a new subway line”现在已在建而不是在2008年前将修建。
74．D 细节理解题。选项A、B、C所表达的内容都是现在存在的事实或到2008年前即将达到的目标，均不是作者所建议的内容。
75．A 判断正误题。根据第三段最后。B文中未提及；C项与D项均与原文内容不符。文章最后一自然段提到，对于发达国家而言，承办奥运会意味着巨大的花费和较小的获利，对于发展中国家是一个发展的机会。
第二卷答案
I. 短文改错
该文是一篇出自中学生之手的书信，涉及了他们所关心的学生辍学经商问题。
76．before改为ago.(联系信件开头第一句，不难看出此句表示的几天前应从现在算起。)
77．friend改为friends。(既然friend前有one of修饰，其后的名词应为复数。)
78．去掉the。（英语中“辍学”应为stop school，这里的school指学业，无需加冠词。）
79．change前加to。（get sb. to do sth.“使某人做某事。）
80．of改为for。（当做表语的形容词表示动词不定式的逻辑主语的性质和特征时，用of而不用for.这些形容词有good,nice,kind,clever,foolish,careless,等）
81．good改为well。（修饰动词do，要用副词well；do well“干得好“。）
82．I改为he。（我坚持要他再试一次。）
83．对。
84．that改为whether。(宾语从句中有or提供正反两中选择，应是whether…or…形成搭配。)
85．needed改为need。（通篇的基调是现在时，写信人现在也迫切需要编辑的帮助，所以应用一般现在时。）
II. 书面表达
One possible version:
Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m very glad to read your advertisement for the Olympic volunteers for 2008. Having read your terms, I think I’m qualified for the job. I’m Li Hua, a healthy high school boy. By the year 2008, I will have been over 18. I’m good at spoken English, and I can communicate with foreigners freely. I’m always ready to help others, full of the spirit of devotion. To do the work well as a volunteer, I’m willing to receive any necessary training, and will do whatever the OSCQ requires me to. I’m sure, by then, I will be able to offer a 15-day service continuously. Believe me, I’ll make full preparations and will be an excellent volunteer.
Looking forward to your response.
Yours,
Li Hua
备选题：

Ⅱ.阅读表达
1．How to be a good audience of Beijing Olympic Games /Good audience manners / How to be a good spectator? （评分要求：依据与文章整体内容的相关程度酌情给分，关键词good, manners）
标题判断题，可用概括归纳法来解。认真阅读分析原文不难发现，本文自始至终介绍如何做2008北京奥运会的观众，因此以How to be a good audience of Beijing Olympic Games为题准确贴切。
2．Be careful with your words, since some may cause anger among other people in the audience.
3．to welcome them
4．The answer varies.
5．但是，在比赛过程中不要鼓掌，因为运动员需要全神贯注。（评分要求：要求在准确、全面的基础上，翻译成较为通顺的汉语，并表达出作者的思路。）

Why do people play football? It’s a stupid game, and dangerous as well. Twenty-two men fight for one and a half hours to kick a ball into two nets. They get more black eyes than goals. On dry hard ground they break their bones or damage their muscles. Football players must be mad. And why do people watch football matches? They must be mad, too. They certainly shout and scream like madmen. In fact I’m afraid to go out when there’s a football match. The crowds are so dangerous. I’d rather stay at home and watch TV. But what happens when I turn it on? It’s showing a football match. So I turn on the radio. What do I hear? The latest football scores. And what do I see when I open a newspaper? Photos of football players, interviews with football players, reports of football matches. Football players are the heroes of the 21st century. They’re rich and famous. Why? Because they can kick a ball around. How stupid! Everyone seems to be mad about football, but I’m not. Down with football, I say.

Every time I passed boys who were playing basketball, I stopped to silently watch them. I really envied them. But as a girl, I once thought that I could 36 play basketball.
I like playing basketball though I'm not good at it. I've had a basketball 37 I was a child. At first, I could play freely because no one 38 when I was just a kid. But as I grew up it seemed harder and harder for me to enjoy basketball.
At school, it was always the boys who played basketball during PE classes. The girls were 39 allowed to play volleyball or badminton.
My parents did not 40 me play basketball at home. "Basketball is not fit for girls," they said. 41 I went to play basketball with my friends, boys 42 at me on the court as if I were an alien.

The fitness movement that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s centered around aerobic exercise（有氧操）. Millions of individuals became engaged in a variety of aerobic activities, and literally thousands of health spas developed around the country to capitalize（获利）on this emerging interest in fitness, particularly aerobic dancing for females. A number of fitness spas came before this aerobic fitness movement, even a national chain with spas in most major cities. However, these fitness spas did not seem to benefit financially form the aerobic fitness movement to better health, since medical opinion suggested that weight-training programs offered few, if any, health benefits. In recent years, however, weight training has again become increasingly popular for males and for females. Many current programs focus not only on developing muscular strength and endurance but on aerobic fitness as well.
Historically, most physical-fitness tests have usually included measures of muscular strength and endurance, not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performance in athletics. However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs designed primarily to improve muscular strength and endurance might also offer some health benefits as well. The American College of Sports Medicine now recommends that weight training be part of a total fitness program for healthy Americans. Increased participation in such training is one of the specific physical activity and fitness objectives of Healthy People 2000: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives.
56. The underlined word "spas" in the first paragraph most probably refers to ____.
A．sports activities C．entertainment centers
B．places for physical exercise D．athletic training programs

A．the promotion of aerobic exercise B．endurance and muscular development
C．the improvement of women's figures D．better performance in aerobic dancing

59. People were given physical fitness tests in order to find out ____ .
A．how well they could do in athletics
B．what their health condition was like
C．what kind of fitness center was suitable for them
D．whether they were fit for aerobic exercise
60. Recent studies have suggested that weight training ________.
A．has become an essential part of people's life
B．may well affect the health of the trainees

D．contributes to health improvement as well

In ancient Greece athletic festivals were very important and had strong religious associations.
The Olympian athletic festival, held every four years in honor of Zeus, eventually lost its local character, became first a national event, and then, after the rules against foreign competitors had been waived , international. No one knows exactly how far back the Olympic Games go, but some official records date from 776 B.C. The Games took place in August on the plain by Mount Olympus. Many thousands of spectators(观众）gathered from all parts of Greece, but no woman was admitted even as a spectator. Slaves, women and dishonored persons were not allowed to compete. The exact sequence (顺序) of events is uncertain, but events included boys’ gymnastics, horse racing, field events such as discus and javelin throwing, and the very important foot races. There was also boxing and wrestling and special tests of varied ability such as the pentathlon, the winner of which excelled in running, jumping, discus and javelin throwing and wrestling. The evening of the third day was devoted to sacrificial offerings （祭品） to the heroes of the day, and the fourth day, that of the full moon, was set aside as a holy day. On the sixth and last day, all the victors were crowned with holy garlands(花冠) of wild olive from a sacred wood. So great was the honor that the winner of the foot race gave his name to the year of his victory. Although Olympic winners received no prize money, they were, in fact, richly rewarded by their state authorities. The public honor also made the strict discipline of the ten month training period worthwhile. In spite of the lengthy training, however, runners were known to drop dead from tiredness at the winning post. After an uninterrupted history of almost 1,200 years, the Games were abolished（取消） in A.D. 394, the Christian era, because of their pagan (异教的) origin. It was over 1,500 years before there was another such international athletics gathering. The Greek institution was brought back in 1896 and the first small meeting took place in Athens. After the 1908 London Olympics, success was reestablished and nations sent their best representatives. In times of peace, the Games have taken place ever since at four yearly intervals.? 61.The first Olympic Games most probably took place ________. A. in 776 B.C. B. in 394 A.D. C. before 776 B.C. D. 1,500 years ago
62. The word “waived” in the first paragraph can be replaced by ________. A. applied B. abolished C. accepted D. argued
63. The order of athletic events at the ancient Olympic Games ________. A. was carefully planned B. varied according to the phases of the moon C. was not definitely set D. was decided by authorities
64. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. The Games took place now and then before 394 A.D.
B. During the ancient Games, the heroes were honored with sacrificial offerings on the evening before the moon was full.
C. So rigorous and so exhausting was the training that some athletes died of tiredness.?
D. The ancient Olympic Games was originally held for religious purpose. 65. The best title for the passage might be ________. A. The Development of the Olympic Games B. The History of the Olympic Games

The Rugby World Cup, won on 22nd November by England, led to a feel-good mood even among people who didn’t usually follow rugby. Millions of television viewers cheered as fly-half Jonny Wilkinson scored the winning points with a drop-goal in the final minutes of extra time. The following Saturday more than 750,000 people turned out to cheer England's players on their victory parade in an open top bus through the streets of central London. This was followed by tea with The Queen at Buckingham Palace and a reception at Downing Street hosted by the Prime Minister.
The players were awarded honors in the New Year Honors List. These honors are awarded on merit, for exceptional achievement or merit in a number of fields. The England Rugby team coach, Clive Woodward, was knighted - so he becomes 'Sir Clive'. All the members of the team received an award, in contrast to the last time an England team won a World Cup. That was back in 1966, when England beat West Germany to win the Football World Cup. Some members of that team had to wait 30 years for official recognition.
Just before this year's Honors List was published it was revealed that some people who had been offered an award had decided not to accept it. Among the titles that are awarded are MBE (Member of the British Empire), OBE (Order of the British Empire) and CBE (Commander of the British Empire). It is this reference to an empire which no longer exists that has annoyed them.
Other countries have found the benefits of sport can be widespread. Australia hosted the last Olympic Games in 2000 and was widely praised for their success. The 2004 Games will be held in Athens, which is using the occasion to improve transport and other facilities, and the 2008 Games will be held in Beijing, which plans to build new metro lines and carry out environmental improvements.
66．A victory parade took place through London streets so as to ________.
A. greet those soldiers who returned from Iraq.
B. celebrate their victory in World War II>
C. celebrate their victory in the Rugby World Cup
D. celebrate the Queen’s birthday.
67. Form this passage we know that ______.
A. a tea party was given by the Queen at Buckingham Palace
B. that Queen attended a tea party to share the victory
C. the Prime Minister hosted the tea party
D. the Queen attended the reception at Downing Street
68. The second paragraph mainly tells us that _______.
A. Clive Woodward was highly praised by the British government
B. all the team members were praised by the government
C. all the members who won the Football World Cup were awarded
D. all the members who won the Football World Cup were not awarded
69. Some people refused to accept the titles because _______.
A. they are of little value. B. they don’t want the government to praise them
C. they chose to be unknown D. all the titles refer to an empire
70. Form the last paragraph we know that ______.
A. all countries try to make use of the Olympic Games to improve something in their country.
B. Athens will improve their environmental conditions
C. metro lines will be built throughout China by 2008
D. some countries still haven’t realized the importance of Olympic Games
D
In my view, Beijing should host the 2008 Olympic Games for the following nine reasons:
Improved natural environment: Beijing has been renovated and made green, and has much fresher air than before. Thousands of vehicles have been reported unserviceable or have been equipped with catalytic（催化剂的）converters（转换器）.After only one year of measures such as these, the air quality has improved appreciably, and there is once more a blue sky Beijing citizens can appreciate.
Telecommunications: The Internet, which was unknown not so long ago, is everywhere now, and the number of users doubles every six months. This is also the case for fixed and mobile phones. During the Olympic Games the media will have access to the most modern technology when transmitting their report worldwide.
Transport: Beijing has four ring roads, and a fifth is under construction. Some 9,400 buses transport over 5 billion people yearly. The east-west subway line has been completed and connected and another line is under construction.
International events: Each year, Beijing hosts major events like the Fourth World Conference on Women in 1995, the China-Africa Symposium（论坛）2000, and sports events like Asian Games. It has now acquired all the experience and facilities necessary to hold such events.
English: More and more taxi drivers and other public employees study English and are eager to practice their new language skills with their foreign customers. It never fails to surprise me when Chinese people speak to me in English in stores, markets and other public places.
Green Beijing: I realized long ago how green Beijing is compared with other large cities of the world I have visited. By 2008 vegetation coverage in Beijing will reach 40 percent, providing an average of 10 square metres of green space per resident.
Water: The 30 rivers, 26 lakes in and around the city, and moats（护城河）around the Forbidden City were dredged（疏通）and cleaned in the year of 2000. The river system now features clear water and green banks, and ducks and swans have returned.
Heritage（遗产）：Chins has introduced laws to protect the historical heritage of its cities during the current urban construction drive. Planers follow regulations to preserve historic streets and houses.
Olympics spirit：For developed countries, hosting the Olympics means huge expenses and small profits, but for a developing country, it is a chance to progress. Paris and Toronto are also bidding for the 2008 Games, but my French and Canadian friends, like myself, support the Beijing bid.
71. What nationality is the author of the passage?
A. Chinese. B. French. C. Canadian. D. Unknown.
72. What has the Beijing municipal government done with the vehicles in Beijing?
A. Thousands have been kept from service.
B. All have been equipped with catalytic converters.
C. Measures will be taken to reduce fuel emission.
D.Both A and C.
73. According to the passage, it is hoped that ______.
A. more buses will be put into service in 2008
B. a fifth ring road will be under construction by 2008
C. a new subway line, besides the east-west line will be under construction by 2008
D. the 5 ring roads will help the traffic service a lot in 2008
74. The author of the passage suggests that _______.
A. more international events be held in Beijing
B. taxi drivers and other public employees learn English for the 2008 Olympics
C. vegetation coverage and river system be brought to a higher standard by 2008.
D. none of the above.

Ⅱ.阅读表达（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15分）
The 2008 Beijing Olympic Games is drawing near. All of us are looking forward to it. Are you eager to enjoy watching the matches or start serving as a volunteer? First, you need to know about audience manner.
The behavior of courtside audiences is considered to be an important part of sporting culture. In 2004, after world champion Stephen Hendry lost to Ding Junhui in the China Open Snooker Championships, he complained of the noise from Chinese spectators. Perhaps you and your classmates could discuss how to behave while in the audience at the Olympic Games.
Most sporting arenas have rules for spectators written on the back of the tickets. Read your ticket carefully before you arrive. Try to reach your seat half an hour before the start of the event and don’t leave when a game is in progress. When you leave, remember to take away your soft drink bottles and other trash(垃圾).
During exciting games, try to control yourself. Don’t criticize the performance of players and coaches. Be careful with your words, since some may cause anger among other people in the audience.
Applause is a special form of body language you can use to communicate with players. But you should do it properly. When players first appear, clap your hands together ________, but don’t go on for too long. After an excellent performance, applaud warmly. If someone fails, your applause will help encourage them.
Applause is not welcome, however, while a game is in progress and players need to keep their concentration. Various sports have various rules for the audience.
Enjoying artistic gymnastics requires silence. But lots of cheering can really help basketball and football players. Snooker and table tennis courtside behavior includes a ban on flash photography. Mobile phones are not allowed in shooting centers.
To be a good spectator, you should take time to learn the game-specific rules and related culture of each event.

3.Wang Ping, a free?lance?(自由职业者) said, “In my opinion, what really counts is not failure itself, but what we think of failure and do after failure.

4. Uncle Fred, a stamp collector I have been collecting stamps at my leisure time for ten years I am so greatly interested in it that it has become a hobby with which I can’t part. I want to be a stamp-collecting NO.1 in my country.

24．A whether引导主语从句，what与how引导的名词性从句作介词on的宾语。what在从句中作宾语，how作方式状语。

33．A. “must + have + 过去分词”表示对过去的推测。
34．A worthwhile adj. 值得的，重要的，有趣的，可构成be worthwhile to do/ doing sth.；join in和take part in一般指参加某项活动；attend多指参加会议，演讲等；join 一般是参加一种组织，如Party（党）或者可以是join sb.，所以选A。

阅读答案
A篇 56—60：BBDAD
56. B 语义判断题。先从数量判断，选项A体育活动和选项D运动员训练项目都不现实。从主题看，本段开头讲健身运动，可以排除C娱乐中心。正确选项B体育锻炼场所既符合谈论的主题，又符合原文与动词develop（发展）的搭配习惯，数量上也合情合理。
57. B 细节理解题。依据为第一段第6行始“... but rather on weight-training programs designed to develop muscular mass, strength ,and endurance in their primarily male enthusiasm”.
58. D 细节判断题。做对该题关健在于考生需仔细审题，特别注意该题的时态是过去时。再依据第一段 “…，since medical opinion suggested that weight-training programes offered few, if any, health benefits,”可以看出医生的态度是“谨慎的”。C)是二类错误：与原文有一些联系，但重合度不足。
59. A 细节理解题。依据是第二段开头“Historically, most physical-fitness have usually included…，not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performance in athletics.”其中performance in athletics对应选项A的内容，所以说， A项为正确答案。
60. D 细节理解题。该题较简单。只需正确理解一句话，即可选出正确答案。也就是第二段第二句“ However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs ... might also offer some health benefits as well.”这正是D项内容。
B篇答案：61—65：CBCAB
本文讲述了奥运会的历史。在古希腊运动节日是很重要的，与宗教有着很紧密的联系。没有人能够知道奥运会究竟始于哪一年，但正式的记载是公元前776，运动会于八月在靠近奥林匹斯山的平原上举行，来自希腊各地的数千人观看了比赛。但妇女不允许观看。奴隶，妇女和不忠实的人不允许参赛。运动会由于异教的起源，于公元394年被禁止举行。一千五百多年后于1896运动后恢复举行。 61. C。判断推理题。文中提到没人知道奥林匹克运动会究竟源于哪一年，但正式的记载始于
776B.C.，也就是说奥运会在公元前776年以前就已开始举行了。所以应选C项。 62. B。词义猜测题。对于熟悉的词汇，我们可以从上下文来推断其意思。上文提到奥运会先是变成全
国性的赛事，后来由于不许外国运动员参加的规则被waived，奥运会就成为国际性的了。可
想而知，当然是由于不许外国运动员参加的规则被废除了，奥运会才成为国际性的赛事。所
以应选B项。A“采用”，C“接受”，D“争论”，都不符合原文的意思。
63. C。细节理解题。第二段写到运动项目的顺序并不确定，但未说明原因，只是详细介绍了七天比
赛的具体过程。因此经过比较可判断出D项是合适的答案。而A项“周详地计划过”，这显然与文中说的不确定意思相悖。B“根据月亮而变动”文中只提到第四天，月满那天被规定为圣日。但月相并不影响其他安排, 所以不正确。D项“由权贵决定”文中提到奥运会的赢家会受到权贵的奖赏，但未曾提到权贵能决定运动项目的顺序，所以不正确。
64. A。判断正误题。本题要求在理解全文的基础上用排除法做。A项“奥运会在公元394年前就有间
隔地举行”但文中第四段段首提到在公元394年以前的1200年中奥运会每年都举行，从未中断过。直至公元394年被废除。因此A项与原文不相符。应选A。B项“在古代运动会中，人们在满月的前一天晚上授予英雄们供奉物，以兹奖励”，在文中第二段段末也明确提到，在运动会的第三天晚上，人们将供奉物授予当天的英雄，而第四天则为满月日，被定为圣日。因此B项与原文相符。不应选B项。C项“训练是如此严酷和疲惫以致一些运动员累死了”文中第三段段末也提到有的运动员由于过度运动而死去。因此C项与原文相符，不应选C项。D项“古代奥运会最初是为了宗教目的而举行的”这在文章开头就明确地提到了。文中写道“古希腊的运动节是十分重要且与宗教相联系的”，所以A符合原文，不应选。
65.答案B。主旨大意题。给文章选题目也是对读者理解概括能力的考察。因此，要在理解整篇文章 ?? 的基础上选出最能体现文章中心大意的题目。此文主要叙述奥运会从古到今的历程与一些具 ?? 体历史事件，是一种叙述历史的文章，因此最贴切的题目应为B项“奥运会的历史”。
C篇答案：66—70：CBBDA
66. C 细节理解题。第一段就告诉我们英国对在橄榄球世界杯上获得了冠军。
67. B 细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句可知答案。
68. B 主旨大意题。本段的内容是讲所有队员获奖情况，其中讲到了教练被封为爵士，其他队员也分别受到了相应的奖励。
69. D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知答案。
70. A 细节理解题。最后一段的开头句就是主题句。从本段我们可以看出，每个国家都想好好地利用奥运会这个机会来提高自己国家某些不足的地方。
D篇答案：71—55：DADDA
71．D 细节理解题。文章最后只提及but my French and Canadian friends, like myself, support the Beijing bid.由此不能推断出“我”是那国人。
72．A 推理判断题。 根据第二段中的Thousands of vehicles have been reported unserviceable…一句表明。Unserviceable意为“不能使用的”。此句意为“成千上万辆机动车被禁止使用，所以A符合此意。
73．D 推理判断题。选项A明显有误（上题已表明）；BC也与原文不符。文中表明“a fifth ring road”和“a new subway line”现在已在建而不是在2008年前将修建。
74．D 细节理解题。选项A、B、C所表达的内容都是现在存在的事实或到2008年前即将达到的目标，均不是作者所建议的内容。
75．A 判断正误题。根据第三段最后。B文中未提及；C项与D项均与原文内容不符。文章最后一自然段提到，对于发达国家而言，承办奥运会意味着巨大的花费和较小的获利，对于发展中国家是一个发展的机会。
第二卷答案
I. 短文改错
该文是一篇出自中学生之手的书信，涉及了他们所关心的学生辍学经商问题。
76．before改为ago.(联系信件开头第一句，不难看出此句表示的几天前应从现在算起。)
77．friend改为friends。(既然friend前有one of修饰，其后的名词应为复数。)
78．去掉the。（英语中“辍学”应为stop school，这里的school指学业，无需加冠词。）
79．change前加to。（get sb. to do sth.“使某人做某事。）
80．of改为for。（当做表语的形容词表示动词不定式的逻辑主语的性质和特征时，用of而不用for.这些形容词有good,nice,kind,clever,foolish,careless,等）
81．good改为well。（修饰动词do，要用副词well；do well“干得好“。）
82．I改为he。（我坚持要他再试一次。）
83．对。
84．that改为whether。(宾语从句中有or提供正反两中选择，应是whether…or…形成搭配。)
85．needed改为need。（通篇的基调是现在时，写信人现在也迫切需要编辑的帮助，所以应用一般现在时。）
II. 书面表达
One possible version:
Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m very glad to read your advertisement for the Olympic volunteers for 2008. Having read your terms, I think I’m qualified for the job. I’m Li Hua, a healthy high school boy. By the year 2008, I will have been over 18. I’m good at spoken English, and I can communicate with foreigners freely. I’m always ready to help others, full of the spirit of devotion. To do the work well as a volunteer, I’m willing to receive any necessary training, and will do whatever the OSCQ requires me to. I’m sure, by then, I will be able to offer a 15-day service continuously. Believe me, I’ll make full preparations and will be an excellent volunteer.
Looking forward to your response.
Yours,
Li Hua

Why do people play football? It’s a stupid game, and dangerous as well. Twenty-two men fight for one and a half hours to kick a ball into two nets. They get more black eyes than goals. On dry hard ground they break their bones or damage their muscles. Football players must be mad. And why do people watch football matches? They must be mad, too. They certainly shout and scream like madmen. In fact I’m afraid to go out when there’s a football match. The crowds are so dangerous. I’d rather stay at home and watch TV. But what happens when I turn it on? It’s showing a football match. So I turn on the radio. What do I hear? The latest football scores. And what do I see when I open a newspaper? Photos of football players, interviews with football players, reports of football matches. Football players are the heroes of the 21st century. They’re rich and famous. Why? Because they can kick a ball around. How stupid! Everyone seems to be mad about football, but I’m not. Down with football, I say.
