Many years ago, I owned a service station and roadhouse on the main road between Melbourne and Adelaide.
One very cold, wet night at about 3:30 a.m., there was a 16 on the front door of our house. A young man, wet from 17 to toe, explained that he had 18 out of petrol about 30 km up the road. He had left his pregnant(怀孕的) wife and his two children 19 at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便车) back.
Once I had 20 a can with petrol, I took him back to his car where his two-year-old and four-year-old children were both 21 , saying that they were cold. Once the car had started, I suggested that he 22 me back.
Before leaving, I had turned the heater 23 in the roadhouse, so that when we went in, it was nice and 24 .While the little ones played and ran 25 ,I prepared bread and butter for the children, and hot chocolate for the 26 .

About a month later, I received a 30 from Interstate, a large bus company that we had been trying to 31 to stop off at our roadhouse for a long time. It 32 out that the young fellow I had helped was its general manager, the most 33 person in the company.
In his letter, he thanked me again and 34 me that, from then on, all their buses would stop at my service station. In this 35 , a little bit of kindness was rewarded with a huge amount of benefits.

第三部分:阅读理解。(共20小题;每题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑
A
In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually was made up of saying poetry aloud and giving speeches.
In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates(应试者) for the doctor’s degree.
Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, looks like a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.
One type of test is sometimes called an “objective” test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test, the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.
36. The main idea of Paragraph Three is that ___________.
A. workers now take examinations B. the population has grown
C. there are only written exams today D. examinations are now written and timed
37. The kind of exams where students must select answers are ___________.
A. objective B. personal C. spoken D. written
38. Modern industry must have developed ____________.
A. around the 19th century B .before the Middle Ages
C. in Greece or Rome D. machines to take tests
39. It may be concluded that testing __________.
A. should test only opinions B. should always be written
C. is given only in factories D. has changed since the Middle Ages
B
What will people die of 100 years from now If you think that is a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today's leading killers, such as heart diseases, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memory.
In discussion of technological changes, the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells(细胞) are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells, such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs(器官). The medicine, made up of the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells, and so on---in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.
It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic conditional human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.
40. According to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by _______.
A. diseases and aging B. accidents and war
C. accidents and aging D. heart diseases and war
41. In the author's opinion, today's most important advance in technology lies in _____.
A. medicine B. the internet C. brain cells D. human organs
42. Humans may live longer in the future because ______.
A. heart disease will be far away from us
B. human brains can decide the final death
C. the basic materials of cells will last forever
D. human organs can be repaired by new medicine
43. We can learn from the passage that _____.
A. human life will not last more than 120 years in the future
B. human have to take medicine to build new skin cells now
C. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer life
D. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cells.

A rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below l6℃.Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate.Without the forest cover,these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere,warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns,potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.
In the past hundred years,humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources(资源):land for crops,wood for paper and other products,land for raising farm animals.This action affects the environment as a whole.For example,a lot of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)in the air comes from burning the rainforests.People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.
There are two main reasons for this.Firstly,when people cut down trees,generally they can only use the land for a year or two.Secondly,cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now,but in the long run it actually reduces the world’s wood supply.
Rainforests are often called the world’s drug store.More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests.However,fewer than l%of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value.It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world’s shrinking rainforests.
44.Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they .
A.reflect more heat into the atmosphere
B.bring about high rainfall throughout the world
C.rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than l6℃
D.reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth
45.What does the word “this” underlined in the third paragraph refer to
A.We will lose much more than we can gain.
B.Humans have begun destroying rainforests.
C.People have a strong desire for resources.
D.Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.
46.It can be inferred from the text that
A.we can get enough resources without rainforests
B.there is great medicine potential in rainforests
C.we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained land
D.the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns
47.What might be the best title for the text
A.How to Save Rainforests
B.How to Protect Nature
C.Rainforests and the Environment
D.Rainforests and Medical Development

The scientist from the Lockheed Space Company work in Felton, California, with the help of a computer. But the computer is placed in Sunnyside, about 80 kilometers away. What scientists input (输入) is sent by telephone lines to the computer, and after a time, copies of the designs are needed back in Felton as quickly as possible Lockheed people have tried several ways of sending the prints, but the most effective seems to be by pigeon. Are pigeons really used to carry messages in these days They are, and they send the prints faster and cheaper than any other way.
Human messengers are much more expensive and slower than the pigeons. The road to Felton goes through the mountains, and the driving is not easy. An electronic printout (电子打印输出) system could do the work in Felton, but at a cost of 10 dollars a print. Pigeons carry the designs for about 1 dollar each.
Now Lockheed people have ten pigeon messengers. The pigeons do the work, and they have made Lockheed more famous. You can often read the news about pigeons in the newspapers around the world.
48. The passage is mainly about ___________________.
A. Felton, California B. the scientists
C. how to work with computers D. sending prints by pigeon
49. This story is unusual because pigeons ____________________.
A. don’t like carrying things B. are often expensive to keep
C. seem out of place in the space age D. aren’t friendly to the scientists
50. Something that’s effective ________________________.
A. usually costs more B. is something that works
C. is often unhappy D. is often done by animals
51. Which happened first
A. Pigeons were used as messengers. B. Human messengers were used.
C. What the scientists input was sent to the computer. D. Scientists got their designs.

The rise of multinational corporations(跨国公司), global marketing, new communication technologies, and reducing cultural differences have led to a great increase in global public relations or PR.
Surprisingly, since modern PR was largely an American invention, the U.S leadership in public relations is being threatened by PR efforts in other countries. Ten years ago, for example, the world’s top five public relations companies were American—owned. In 1991, only one was. The British are especially becoming more knowledgeable and creative. A recent study found that more than half of all British companies include PR as part of their corporate(公司的) planning activities, compared to about one—third of U.S. companies. It may not be long before London replaces New York as the capital of PR.
Why is American falling behind in the global PR race Firstly, Americans as a whole tend to be fairly provincial and take more of an interest in local affairs. Knowledge of world geography, for example, has never been strong in this country. Secondly, Americans fall behind their European and Asian counterparts(相对应的人) in knowing a second language. Less than 5 percent of Burson—Marshall’s U.S. employees know two languages. Ogilvy and Mather have about the same percentage. On the contrary, some European firms have half or more of their employees good at a second language. Finally, people involved in PR abroad tend to keep a closer eye on international affairs. In the financial PR area, for instance, most Americans read the Wall Street Journal. Overseas, their counterparts read the Journal as well as the Financial Times of London and The Economist, publications not often read in this country.
Perhaps the PR industry might take a lesson from Ted Turner of CNN (Cable News Network). Turner recently announced that the word “foreign” would no longer be used on CNN news broadcasts. According to Turner, global communications have made the nations of the world so inter—dependant that there is no longer any such thing as foreign.
52. According to the passage, U.S. leadership in public relations is being threatened because of _____________.
A. a great increase in the number of public relations companies
B. reducing cultural differences and new communication technologies
C. the decreasing number of multinational corporations in the U.S
D. increased efforts of other countries in public relations
53. London could soon replace New York as the center of PR because ____________.
A. British companies are more ambitious than U.S. companies
B. British companies place more important on PR than U.S. companies
C. British companies are heavily involved in planning activities
D. Four of the world’s to public relations companies are British—owned
54. We can infer from the passage that employees in the American PR industry _____________.
A. speak at least one foreign language fluently
B. pay no attention to world geography
C. are not as knowledge as their European counterparts
D. enjoy reading a great variety of English business publications
55. What lesson might the PR industry take from Ted Turner of CNN
A. American PR companies should be more international—minded
B. The American PR industry should develop global communication technologies
C. People working in PR should be better at foreign languages.
D. People involved in PR should avoid using the world “foreign”.

Suggested answer:
How to be a good student
It is important and necessary for us to be good students. But how can we become good students In my opinion, those who are strict with themselves and in their studies can be considered as good students while those with bad behaviors of smoking, drinking or being absent from classes without any reason are admitted to be bad ones. Being good students, we should show respect to our teachers and the elderly and be always ready to help others. Besides we must obey the school regulations, and try not to form the bad habits, such as being addicted to playing computer games, telling lies and teasing and bulling the weak.
In a word, good students are always trying their best to make constant progress so that they can achieve their goals.(共21张PPT)
