（一）Most great inventors in the capitalist society meet with much opposition to their inventions from the people who place their own interests before those of the people.Big monopolies try to buy inventions and turn them to their own profits.When they fail, they resort to other tricks.Inventors have to overcome thousands of difficulties put in their path before they can see their dreams realized.When George Stephenson was experimenting with the stream engine, there was much opposition from the Parliament, the newspaper, and landlords.They claimed that the noise and the smoke would kill cows, horses and sheep, that the engine would burst or that hot coals from it would set fire to their houses.So it was a very difficult matter for George Stephenson to persuade the people that trains could go on smooth rails, could pull carriages and wagons full of people and goods, and that there was no great danger of accidents.However, he was able to do it, and the first train driven by Stephenson himself showed that the newly invented steam engine was a complete success.56.The word “those” in the first sentence refers to A.inventors B.inventions C.interests D.monopolies 57.Why do big monopolies buy inventions? A.They want to make a further research.B.They want to improve them.C.They want to make more money.D.They want to play tricks with inventors.58.Which of the following is not the very reason for the opposition to Stephenson's experiment? A.It would make terrible noise.B.It would give off heavy smoke.C.It would waste coal.D.It would set fire to houses.59.The word “dream” in the first paragraph refers to _____ A.inventors' interests in inventions B.inventors' plans for inventions C.the profits inventors would make D.the difficulties in their inventions.60.What is the main idea of this paragraph? A.Stephenson invented the stream engine.B.Big monopolies opposed to inventions.C.Inventors' difficulties in their invention.D.Oppositions to Stephenson the inventor.（二）
As a young girl, Elizabeth Barrett(Browning英国作家勃朗宁)ruptured a blood vessel on the lungs which did not heal.The physician consigned her to a milder climate for the winter
and she went Devonshire for restoration.Among the members of her family who accompanied her to those healing shores was her eldest brother.For a whole year they lived side by side in affectionate companionship, she all the while being greatly benefited by mild sea breezes of Torquay.One summer morning her brother went board a small sailboat with two friends for a trip of several hours around the coast.Just as the vessel came in sight of the window where Miss Barrett sat watching, the boat struck a sunken reef;and all who were in it went down and perished in the sea, before assistant could be rendered.None of the bodies were ever found although the whole village, full of sympathy, assembled in search.This was the tragedy which utterly prostrated for some years afterwards the health and soul of Elizabeth Barrett.Somehow she felt that she herself had in some measure been the cause of all this horror, and she suffered accordingly.Her whole being seemed shattered, and a year longer elapsed before, she was able to be more to London.This fatal event, which so saddened her youth gave also a still deeper devotional feeling to hue of sorrow so apparent in many of her earlier pieces.61.What sort of climate did Elizabeth's doctor prescribe? A.Temperate.B.Tropical.C.Humid.D.Arid.62.How many people were drowned when the boat sank? A.One B.Two C.Three D.The article doesn't indicate 63.How did the tragedy affect Elizabeth? A.It affected her physically but not emotionally.B.It affected her emotionally but not physically.C.It did not affect her in any way.D.It affected her both physically and emotionally.64.Whom did she blame for the accident? A.Her brother.B.Herself.C.No one.D.The villagers.65.The incident had _____ on her poetry.A.no influence B.very little influence C.a superficial influence D.a strong influence
（三）SYDNEY: As they sat sharing sweets beside a swimming pool in 1999 , Shane Gould and Jessicah Schipper were simply getting along well , chatting about sport , life and “ anything else that came up.” Yet in Sydney next month , they will meet again by the pool , and for a short time the friends will race against each other in the 50-meter butterfly（蝶泳）in the Australian championships at Homebush Bay.Gould , now a 47-year-old mother of four , has announced she will be making a return to elite competition（顶级赛事）to swim the one event , having set a qualifying（合格的）time of 30.32 seconds in winning gold at last year's United States Masters championships.Her comeback comes 32 years after she won three golds at the Munich Olympics.Schipper , now a 17-year-old from Brisbane with a bright future of going to Athens for her first Olympics , yesterday recalled（回忆）her time with Gould five years ago.“ I was at a national youth camp on the Gold Coast and Shane had come along to talk to us and watch us train , ” Schipper explained.“ It seemed as if we had long been good friends.I don't know why.We just started talking and it went from there.” “ She had a lot to share with all of us at that camp.She told us stories about what it was like at big meets like the Olympics and what it's like to be on an Australian team.It was really interesting.” Next time , things will be more serious.“ I will still be swimming in the 50m butterfly at the nationals , so there is a chance that I could actually be competing against Shane Gould , ” said Schipper , who burst onto the scene at last year's national championships with second places in the 100m and 200m butterfly.66.What is the passage mainly about ?

（四）Giving Back Fair Way The Westborough High School golf team had taken the official photos with the state prize.The other teams, disappointed, were on the bus heading home.And then Westborough instructor Greg Rota noticed something wrong with one of the score cards.A 9 had been recorded as a 7.They were not the state prize winner;Wobum High had won.“No one would have known,” said Wobum's instructor, Bob Doran.For Rota, it wasn't a difficult decision: “The prize wasn't ours to take.” Coin Stars “College students are lazy, but they also want to help,” says University of Pennsylvania graduate Dana Hork.So she made it easy, placing cups in rooms where students could leave their spare coins, and handing out cups to first-year students to keep in their rooms.Her “ Change for Change” effort has collected $40,000 for charities 慈善机构), which were decided upon by students.Never Forgotten A school in Massachusetts received a $ 9.5 million check from Jacques LeBermuth.But it took
officials several days of digging to discover his connection to the school.Records showed the LeBermuth came from Belgium and studied in the school in the 1920s.When his family fell on hard times, he was offered free room and board.LeBermuth became a trader, owned shares of AT&T and lived off the earnings until he died, at age 89.71.What did Greg Rota probably do in the end?

（五）Television ,the modern wonder of electronics, brings the world into your own home in sight and sound,1.And the word “television” means “seeing far”.Television works in much the same way as radio.In radio, sound is changed into electromagnetic(invisible light)waves which are sent through the air.Experiments leading to modern television took place more than a hundred years ago.By the 1920s inventors and researchers had turned the early theories into working models.Yet it took another thirty years for TV to become an industry.The influence of TV on the life of people is incalculable: it can influence their thoughts and their way of life.It can also add to their store of knowledge.Educational TV stations offer teaching in various subjects.Some hospitals use TV for medical students to get close-up views of operations.At first television programs were broadcast in black-and-white.With the development of science and technology, the problem of how to telecast them in full color was solved and by the middle 1960s the national networks were broadcasting most of their programs in color.The programs that people watch are not only local and national ones.Since the launching of the first communications satellite, more and more programs are telecast “live” from all over the world.People in San Francisco were able to watch the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo.And live telecasts now come from outer space.In 1969, the first astronauts to land on the moon televised their historic “moon walk” to viewers on the earth.Since then, astronauts have regularly sent telecast to the earth.56.Television is said to be the modern wonder of electronics, because _______.A.it is an industry B.it broadcasts most of the programs in color C.it brings the world into people's own home in sight and sound D.it influences people's thoughts 57.Television became an industry in _______.A.1920 B.1969 C.the l920s D.the 1950s 58.The word “incalculable” means______.A.very great B.uncertain C.hard to tell D.very small 59.The development of science and technology made it possible for television programs to _______.A.be telecast again B.be kept for later use C.be put on video tape D.be telecast in full color 60.The launching of communications satellites made it possible for people to _______.A.get close up views of operations B.learn various subjects C.watch the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo D.watch local programs
（六）The seriously depressed person sees himself in a very negative way.He is sure that he is alone and hopeless.He often blames himself for ordinary faults and shortcomings which he exaggerates.He is very discouraged about himself, the world, and his future.He becomes less interested in what is going on around him and doesn't get satisfaction from things he used to enjoy.Fatigue and early morning sleeplessness are quite common.The depressed person may want to sleep more than usual.He may lose his appetite and lose weight, or eat more than normally and gain weight.Another particular sign, seen in women, is crying spells.Many of these spells are short and common.Depressives share the feeling that they have lost something very important to them, though often this is not really the case.From a feeling of loss, the depressed person progresses to false ideas that he is a loser and will always be a loser, that he must be worthless and perhaps not fit to live.He may even attempt suicide.So many very depressed people attempt suicide that depressive illness may be considered the only fatal mental illness.Not all those suffering from depressive illness do attempt suicide.But the relationship is striking.It is estimated that as many as 75 percent of those who attempt suicide are seriously depressed.Other studies show that the person hospitalized for depression is about 36 times more likely to commit suicide than is the non-depressed person.The greatest risk occurs during or immediately after hospitalization.After age 40, the possibility of suicide increases in very depressed person.Almost twice as many women as men suffer from depressive illness.Almost twice as many women as men attempt suicide, but three times more men than women succeed.61.Depressives share the feeling that they______.A.have been unloved B.have grown old C.have lost something D.have got something 62.Depressive illness may be considered the only mental illness_____.A.which is fatal B.Which is puzzling C.Which is incurable D.Which is sad

（七）It was not yet eleven o'clock when a boat crossed the river with a single passenger who had obtained his transportation at that unusual hour by promising an extra fare.While the youth stood on the landing-place searching in his pocket for money, the ferryman lifted a lantern, by the aid of which, together with the newly risen moon, he took a very accurate survey of the stranger's figure.He was a young man of barely eighteen years, evidently country bred, and now, as it seemed, on his first visit to town.He was wearing a tough gray coat, which was in good shape, but which had seen many winters before this.The garments under his coat were well constructed of leather, and fitted tightly to a pair of muscular legs;his stockings of blue yarn must have been the work of a mother or sister, and on his head was a three-cornered hat, which in its better days had perhaps sheltered the grayer head of the lad's father.In his left hand was a walking stick, and his equipment was completed by a leather bag not so abundantly stocked as to inconvenience the strong shoulders on which it hung.Brown, curly hair, well-shaped features, bright, cheerful eyes were nature's gifts, and worth all that art could have done for his adornment.The youth, whose name was Robin, paid the boatman, and then walked forward into the town with a light step, as if he had not already traveled more than thirty miles that day.As he walked, he surveyed his surroundings as eagerly as if he were entering London or Madrid, instead of the little metropolis of a New England colony.66.The story took place in ____.A.spring B.summer C.fall D.winter
67.The boatman was willing to take Robin across the river because___.A.he wanted to make extra money.B.he saw that Robin was young and rich.C.he was going to row across the river anyway.D.he felt sorry for him because Robin looked poor.68.The stockings that Robin wore were obviously _____.A.worn-out B.very expensive C.handmade D.much too big 69.From the way he looked, it was evident that Robin was ____.A.a wealthy merchant's son B.a country boy C.a soldier D.a foreigner 70.How did Robin appear as he walked into the town? A.He was cheerful and excited.B.He was tired.C.He seemed very sad.D.He seemed frightened by the strange surroundings.（八）
It seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble.That's more or less what happened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville.As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and sirens going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway.The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me.He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.” But Hyde couldn't go after him.Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident.But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car.As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult.Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination.At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene.His help wasn't needed.Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the Firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panic about.“Just about that time, ”Hyde says, “I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and oil going everywhere.He'd blown his engine.Now he had to stop.” “After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running.He told me he didn't have a driver's license（执照）.” That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty－a thousand dollars for the new engine－not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.71.The meaning of “panicked”in Paragraph 2 is related to _____.A.shame B.hate C.anger D.fear 72.Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway? A.Because he was racing with another driver on the road.B.Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene.C.Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him.D.Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder.73.Which of the following statements is true? A.Someone else was taking care of the injured person.B.The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene.C.Hyde knew where he was going by following the right car.D.The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40.74.The driver of the Firebird ______.A.took a wrong turn on the way B.had some trouble with his car C.was stopped by the police officer D.paid for the expenses of the accident 75.What is probably the best title for the article?
A.Losing His Way? B.Going My Way? C.Fun All the Way? D.Help on the Way?

1.On Open Policy The open policy means that our country is open to investment, trade and technical and economic cooperation with other countries on the basis of equality and mutual benefit.The purpose of open policy is to acquire advanced technology, management skills to serve our socialist construction so as to promote the realization of the four modernizations.We must adhere to the open policy.Because economic relations between states today have become increasingly close, and no country can possibly advance behind close doors.Only in this way, can we gradually close the gap between our country and the developed countries.Through the implementation of policy, we can learn advanced technology and managerial expertise from abroad;make full use of the foreign capitals to set up great enterprises;absorb useful and healthy ideas and new knowledge of the modern civilization;and broaden our views and raise our level of competence.2.The place of Science and Technology in Modern Life.Human life can not continue without science and technology.For many years, human society has developed with the advance of science and technology while the development of science and technology has in turn brought the process to mankind.So the life we are living now is more civilized than that of our fore fathers.The development of science and technology have brought about many changes in people's life.for example, the invention of television and space rocket have opened a new era for mankind.Through the use of TV people can hear the sound and learn the events happening thousands of miles away.Owing to the invention of spaceship and rocket, the dream of man's landing on the moon has now come true.Science and technology also play an important role in our socialist construction.We may say, our socialist construction is just like a skyscraper, while science and technology are its base.Without the base, the skyscraper can't be built.Therefore, we should try our best to contribute to the development of science and technology so as to provide a more solid base to build our country.3.Importance of Education China, as a developing country, is determined to catch up with and even surpass the developed ones.I think that one of the best possible ways to do so is to give first priority(优先）to the development of culture, science and especially education.In modern times, when science and technology are making great progress, the education of the work force is of primary importance.Moreover, many of the success in advanced countries have demonstrated that a nation 's prosperity mainly depends on the quality of its labour force, namely those who have been well educated.In a developing country such as China, our investment in culture, education and science, and especially elementary education, must enjoy top priority.This is crucial(决定性的）for China to catch up with the developed nations in today's surging(汹涌的)waves of technological revolution.Otherwise, the gap between China and advanced countries will be widened rather than bridged.4.Air Pollution Air pollution is one of the major problems of the modern world.A great deal of energy is needed to run the factories of modern industrial nations.Automobile, trains, planes and busses need energy, too.Nearly all of this energy is produced by burning fuels.The burning produces wastes, some of which remain in the air, causing air pollution.Scientists are finding ways to stop air pollution especially in big industrial areas and densely-populated cities.They are studying new ways of generating electricity that may be less damaging to the environment.In the meantime, many power plants are being modernized to give off less polluted material.Also, engineers try to design and locate new power plants to do minimum damage to the environment.However, it may be that we still have a long way to go before we have a “clean” world.Nearly all of the countries are trying hard to prevent and control air pollution.There indeed seems to be no end to tasks that environmentalists will be required to do.People will continually find new ways to control pollution.5.Environmental Protection Today the quality of our natural environment has become an important issue.The world population is rising so quickly that the world has become too crowded.We are using up our natural resources and at the same time polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals.If we continue to do this, life on earth cannot survive.Concerned people have made some progress in environmental protection.Governments of many countries have established laws to protect the air, forests and sea resources and to stop environmental pollution.Still more measures should be taken to solve environmental problems.People should be further educated to recognize the importance of the problems, to use modern methods of birth control, to conserve(保存）our natural resources and recycle（再循环）our products.We are sure that we can have a better and cleaner place in the future.6.Automobiles Automobiles, as a product of modern civilization, have been playing a vital part in the daily activities of human society.Industry needs automobiles for farming as well as transportation.Every day, automobiles drive people to and from work.On weekends automobiles take families for joyful outings.And during holiday seasons, automobiles fill the highways everywhere, even in remote areas.It could be said that the wheels of automobiles move society forward.But automobiles have also given rise to a series of problems.For example, cities are overcrowded with automobiles.They create a lot of noise and traffic accidents which disable（伤残）or kill many people each year.Worst of all perhaps is the air pollution caused by the exhaust gases produced by automobiles.Some of the gases are highly toxic(有毒的）and a serious health hazard.7.Computer The computer is widely used in all fields of society.Today, wherever you go, you will find computers being used.For example, computers are used in universities, large corporations, and small offices, etc.It has even entered the homes of ordinary people.As it is able to store and process a large amount of information, the computer bring about great convenience and high efficiency to people of all walks of life.Computers can help people in different ways.For example, computer help scientists in analyzing data and doing complex calculation.For another example, computers are made use of by engineers in designing a plane, or a spaceship.Besides, computers may also play a great role in helping children with their lesson.Whatever you are doing, you many find computer a useful aid.However, the computer must be designed and instructed by man.What is more, it is true that computers can make decisions, but they need detailed instructions and programs prepared by humans to operate.Therefore, the computer can never replace the human brain.8.Travelling It is exciting to visit different places.As you travel, you will see beautiful sceneries typical of the region.Besides, you can meet and make friends with people of different colors and races.Finally, you can get to know the customs and living habits of the local people.Today people are so fond of travelling that tourism has become one of the fasters growing industries in most countries.The main reason why people travel is, perhaps, for pleasure.For example, having worked hard throughout the weekdays, people will find a widened trip to the nearby mountains or beaches a real relaxation.For another example, spending an annual holiday travelling abroad is an especially satisfying experience for those who do not have much of an opportunity to be away from their homelands.When people return from their travel, they will generally feel fresh and energetic, ready to work harder.Travelling is also one of the best means for learning.You may have read or heard about something but you can never get an accurate picture of it until you see it for yourself.Seeing is believing.Furthermore, if you area careful observer, you can learn much during your travel about the geography, biology, and history of the places you visit.No matter how well educated you are, there is always a lot for you to learn through travelling.The knowledge acquired from travel, as you will have found in your life, is no less valuable than that from any influential reference book.9.The World Population Explosion The human race has experienced a consistent increase in population since the beginning of its history.Famine and disease have done little to offset(抵消）this steady increase.Too many people are added annually to the population of the world.So both the causes of population increase and the results of having more people are worth careful study.Culture evolution is the major factor responsible for population increase.Early in human development, people invented tools to hunt animals.Later they built shelters to protect themselves.Step by step, they made life easier.As a result, fewer died from natural forces, such as harsh climate and disease.In the past, when population grew, there was unexplored territory to inhabit.But now, almost all the habitable land has been explored.The world's population may reach 8.7 billion in 2033.It is clear that world population is a serious issue that needs careful attention.Human beings are unique to solve problems through cultural evolution.(发展）Facing the world population explosion in the near future.we must carry out the birth control program in order to save the mankind and save the world.10.Opening-door Policy is the Only Way to Make China Strong Modern Chinese history leads us to the conclusion that socialism, not capitalism is best for China.But how a socialist China should look at capitalism and more importantly, make use of the better side of capitalism for its own advantage is of vital(至关）importance to the country.As far as our country's economic construction is concerned, taking advantage of the part of capitalism
that is useful to us means we need to develop foreign trade, introduce advanced technology and better management, and make use of foreign funds.It also means we can absorb some of the economic theories, and make use of those economic policies, methods and measures that comply with(遵循）the law of mass production and a commodity economy.By opening our windows wider to the outside world, people can learn more about other peoples and learn to make sensible judgments.absorbing the better part of the cultures of other people to enrich ourselves is the best way to safeguard our socialist culture.So taking advantage of capitalism and stepping up economic reforms is the only way to make China strong.Closing the county to international exchanges will only keep it weak.11.Choosing an Occupation Every one faces the problem of choosing an occupation after graduation from college or university, which plays a vital role in his life.An appropriate occupation makes a man work with zest(热情）and vigor, as well as contribute to his country.To make a wise choice, two important things should be taken into consideration.One is the interest, the other, the demands of people and society.Only if the two aspects are connected, can a man show his talent and ability to the best advantage.If the two conflict, the former should be under the latter, for the people's interests are more important than the individual's.In regard to my choice in the future, I am fond of learning foreign languages;what is more, with the implementation of the Open-Door Policy, exchange between home and abroad in economy and culture has been growing significantly, thus I'm determined to be a qualified interpreter.12.The Brain and the Computer Some recent developments in the computer industry make scientists predict that the gap between human beings and machines will be closed about the year 20000.To understand the significance of this prediction let us compare the human brain with existing computers.The brain consumes electrical energy at the rate of 25 watts and occupies a volume of one tenth of a cubic foot.The brain houses between 10 billion and 100 billion items of information.Every brain cell is directly connected to many other cells.As a result, the cells in which information is stored can communicate with thousands of other cells.However, the computer consumes 1000,000 watts of electrical power and occupies hundreds of cubic feet of space.Its million items of immediately accessible information.In contrast, the computer memory is like a cell of pigeonholes, with no thinking capacity and no connections elsewhere.In a word, the electronic brains are hopelessly inadequate in comparison with the human brains.13.Modernization of Family Life With the rapid development of the society, family life is becoming modernized.Years ago, people considered owing radios, sewing machines, watches and bicycles as being modernized.but in recent years, almost all families have TV sets, refrigerators and washing machines.It is very common to see people ride motorcycles or even drive private cars and more and more families have telephones, computers and air-conditioners.The modernization of family life brings us convenience and comfort.One may enjoy TV or radio programs, communicate with his friends through telephone or work with his computer while his washing machine，32
refrigerator and air-conditioners are running.and by car or motorcycle one can quickly reach wherever he wants to go.In spite of this, these modern facilities also bring us disadvantages.For example, radiation from TV sets and computers is harmful to our health;improper driving of cars and motorcycles becomes the major cause of traffic accidents.The quietness of a family is often disturbed by a falsedialing or unwelcome phone call.but it is believed that these disadvantages will be disposed of with the improvement of modernization and our life will be more healthy and more comfortable.14.Energy Resources China is rich in various energy resources.Coal and petroleum, for instance, are two major ones.They are essential in developing the country's industry, science and technology.China has done a great deal in the past few decades to raise its output of coal and petroleum.Three energy resources are being used up rapidly, With the building of four modernization, new industrial and science projects are springing up like bamboo shoots after rain.They are all big consumers of energy resources.Besides there has been considerable waste in the utilization of these resources.To avoid an energy crisis in the future, the government must take certain measures.First, it should let people know the importance of saving energy.Second, efforts should be made to develop new energy resources, such as solar energy, geothermal(地热）energy and so on.We have reason to be optimistic in this respect.15.Competition Competition makes people original and creative.It very necessary to compete if human society wants to advance.(Even animals compete for survival.)Without it, we would become lazy and nobody would rake any responsibility.When three monks live together, there will be no drinking water.This Chinese proverb vividly describes why China's productivity was so low before Mr Deng came to power.At that time, we had the so-called planned economy.There was no competition at all.So neither farmers nor workers worked hard.China was on the edge of collapse.Competition can stimulate people to try their best to do anything.For example, in 100-meter race, each sportsman runs as quickly as possible, trying to win the champion.The same things happen in our society and in our daily life.If a company wants to surpass others, it must compete with them.It must raise its efficiency.All the companies doing this will no doubt benefit the whole society and the whole human race.Being a student, I must compete with other students in our studies.I must study hard in all the fields so that I can be a useful man when I enter the society after graduation.16.Students’ Part-time jobs There are many advantages for a student to have a part time job.For instance, it helps him to realize that no success comes from nothing.It enables him to be independent and builds up his self-confidence.Therefore, part-time jobs can get the students out of the ivory tower and give them the opportunity to know more of himself and of his personal value in society.As everything has two sides, the disadvantages can’t be ignored.Part-time jobs cut into students’ study time;some even become so preoccupied with making money that they ca ‘t focus their attention on studying.In the end, the students may fall behind or fail in their studies.In my opinion, students can choose to take up a job according to their own situation.The most important thing is for him to keep a good balance, put his study on top of the list and assign an adequate amount
of time to it.17.Wealth and Happiness Everybody wants to get wealth.In today’s material world, making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person’s success and capability.Many people just make every effort, pay any price to attain greater wealth.With money, they can but nice, large apartments in nice neighborhood;with money, they can own stately luxury cars.Wealth seems with money, they can own stately luxury cars.Wealth seems to bring all happiness in life.In my opinion, people cannot do anything without money, but money is not everything.What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life.If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you.With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will and to your own happiness.If you want money just for your own needs, you’ll never be satisfied or happy.In a word, you should have money spent for more people, only then can money be the source of your happiness.18.Ideals Everyone has his ideals.A businessman wishes to make greater profit;a farmer expects bumper harvests;a student tries to learn more and better.And everyone strives, with more or less effort, to realize his ideal.One should be sensible about whether his ideal is well founded or not.If it is, one has to plan and work hard for its realization.Effort, skill and persistence are all necessary.And very often, one has to get help from others, including advice and support in one form or another.My ideal is to become a doctor, It is said that the field of medicine is a well-paid profession, but I take it as a lofty profession entrusted with saving people’s lives.To realize my ideal I have concentrated on laboratory work to develop the analytical skills necessary to become a qualified doctor.I am sure I will realize my ideal if I persevere in this pursuit.19.Popular Sports in China Sports are flourishing in china now.More and more people are willing to take part in sports of different kinds, such as table-tennis, football, volleyball, and so on.Every year there are many matches played on the city, provincial or national level.Sports are no longer limited to a few professional players.Early in the morning people may be seen doing exercise.Martial arts(like Chinese boxing or swordplay)which formerly were cultivated for self-defense, now have become a form of physical exercise and are practiced in parks, streets, gardens, or on campuses.In addition young and old people are also often seen running in order to build up their bodies.China promotes sports to enhance the physical condition of its people;she is formulating policies to provide encouragement of this activity.She awards prizes to the excellent players for the best records both in china and the world.In the world the Chinese have become a strong people instead of “the weaklings of East Asia”.20.Is Failure a Bad Thing? Failure is what often happens.It is everywhere in our life.Students may fail in exams, scientists may fail in their research work, and athletes may fail in competitions.Although failure happens to everyone, attitudes towards failure are various.Some people don’t think their failure is a very important thing at all.So they pay no attention to it.As a result, they will
have the same failure a period later.Some people think themselves are fools and lose their hearts in everything after they get a failure.Consequently, they spend their time and energy on useless things and they may really be fools as they have thought.Other people are quite different from the two kinds of people mentioned above.Instead of being distressed and lost, they draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced.After hard work, they will be successful in the end.It is said that failure is the mother of success.Success will be gained after times of failures so ling as we are good at drawing lesson from our failures.In my opinion, failure is not a bad thing, the really bad thing is taking a failure as failure or even lose our heart after failure.21.Health and Life As the saying goes, you don’t know what happiness is until you lose it’ you don’t know what health is until you are ill.“Health is of vital importance to life” sounds like a cliche to everyone, but it is absolutely true.The negligence of the delicate balance of your body and soul, the harmful habits such as smoking, excessive drinking and burning mid-night oil will catch up with you someday.How many big plans are interrupted by bad health!Even a normal life is unimaginable without the guarantee of health.How to keep fit is an eternal topic of diversity and controversy.Regardless of all the different suggestions poured from all kinds of sources, one should do at least two things for him/herself.First, hold an active and optimistic attitude toward life and maintain a mental well-being.Second, live a regular life and keep a balanced diet.Anyway, a healthy life is within reach when you begin to adjust your mind and body.22.私家车(private car)Nowadays , there are more and more people owning private cars.On the one hand, some wealthy people who either are the boss of the private company or the white-collar managers in big companies have their private cars.On the other hand, some young people who are future-minded buy private cars ahead of their income by loans from banks.Is it a good or bad thing to have a private car? Just as a coin has two sides , so there are both advantages and disadvantages of having a private car.So far as its advantages are concerned, there are two examples for this.First , it plays a very important part in providing its owner with convenience, enabling the owner to go where he wants to quickly and easily.Second, it can help its owner to save a lot of time which may be wasted by waiting for other vehicles.However, it also has its disadvantages.For one thing, it will have a negative effect on both the crowded traffic system and the environment in the long run.For another, it places burden on the public utility in providing more parking lots.In short , owning a private car has both its advantages and disadvantages.It is advisable that we should pay much attention to the environmental protection by not having a private car if we have little or no practical use of the private car.23.西方快餐在中国（Western fast food）
Western fast food business has developed tremendously in the past 50 years.Nowadays people will see all kinds of fast food restaurants here and there.which clearly shows how closely it is related to our daily life.Most people believe that fast food business has become part of our life and its developement is good for both society and people.Firstly,the best thing about fast food is being fast.Now everyone lives a busy life so time is the most valuable thing to us all.Fast food offers a most
efficient way to eat.You will waste no time in waiting or choosing.Secondlu,fast food restaurants provide us with a good environment for entertainment and study.Friends come here,chatting or playing cards;students come here,reading books or doing homework,and meanwhile you can enjoy a bag of chips and a bottle of cola which will bring more pleasure.Thirdly, youngsters can even find good opportunities of working practice in some fast food restaurants.Working experience help them understand the society better and improve their communicating skills.In many ways,we beefit a lot from the fast food business.Therefore,I think it helpful and important to our life.24.如何提高听力
Improve English Listening There are many ways.First, it is very important to practice and listening to more English listening practice.Secondly, if there is a chance, then you can listen to recordings in English, English News, English movies.Learning English songs are also a good way.The most important thing is not afraid to speak English, read English aloud.I believe this hearing will be improved soon
25.如何理解熟能生巧（如何理解熟能生巧）
There is an old saying in China: Practice makes perfect.Practice is a means and perfect is a goal.Only when you do more practice can you make things perfect.This is true not only in our learning but also in other walks of life.Take the study of English for example.Practice enables us to spell words correctly and master the rules of grammar quickly and practice also makes us hecome fluent in speaking and writing.It is ahnost impossible for a person to speak English fluently and accurately without a lot of practice.Another case in point is cooking.A good cook can prepare a delicious meah But you will not be surprised at his performance if you know how much time he has spent practising.Through practice, he then becomes an expert at cooking.It goes without saying that practice makes perfect.Only through practice can one be good at doing things.Since we have realized the importance of practice, why not put it into practice?

Nowadays in the society, there are enormous fake commodities.When you go to the supermarket, you may buy some fake food commodities.When you go to the pharmacist's, you may buy some fake medicine.36
The deep root of this phenomenon lies in someone's greed for money.In order to get a large amount of money in a short time, they try every means to produce fake commodities, without any regard for other people's benefit and health.Fake commodities can do great harm to both consumers and society.For example, when a person bought fake medicine, it was useless in curing his disease and really a waste of money.Sometimes fake medicine can even cause death.Fake commodities are usually sold in a lower price.It causes unfair competition in the market economy and puts the whole society in disorder.28.战争与和平（War and Peace）
“Well, Prince, so Genoa and Lucca are now just family estates of the Buonapartes.But I warn you, if you don't tell me that this means war, if you still try to defend the infamies and horrors perpetrated by that Antichrist-I really believe he is Antichrist-I will have nothing more to do with you and you are no longer my friend, no longer my 'faithful slave,' as you call yourself!But how do you do? I see I have frightened you-sit down and tell me all the news.” It was in July, 1805, and the speaker was the well-known Anna Pavlovna Scherer, maid of honor and favorite of the Empress Marya Fedorovna.With these words she greeted Prince Vasili Kuragin, a man of high rank and importance, who was the first to arrive at her reception.Anna Pavlovna had had a cough for some days.She was, as she said, suffering from la grippe;grippe being then a new word in St.Petersburg, used only by the elite.....29.污染问题air pollution Air pollution is one of the major problems of the modern world.A great deal of energy is needed to run the factories of modern industrial nations.Automobile, trains, planes and busses need energy, too.Nearly all of this energy is produced by burning fuels.The burning produces wastes, some of which remain in the air, causing air pollution.Scientists are finding ways to stop air pollution especially in big industrial areas and densely-populated cities.They are studying new ways of generating electricity that may be less damaging to the environment.In the meantime, many power plants are being modernized to give off less polluted material.Also, engineers try to design and locate new power plants to do minimum damage to the environment.However, it may be that we still have a long way to go before we have a “clean” world.Nearly all of the countries are trying hard to prevent and control air pollution.There indeed seems to be no end to tasks that environmentalists will be required to do.People will continually find new ways to control pollution.30.吸烟的问题（Smoking Is Harmful）At the class meeting our teacher read us a report in the newspaper.A certain student in a middle school smoked and he wouldn't get rid of the bad habit though his teacherand friends warned him not to smoke any more.He even stole money to get cigarettes and was pat into prison in the end.This really gave usa shock.As we all smoking is very harmful to our health.It does great harm not only to our health, but also to our mind, especially for us teenagers.Now more and more people all over the world have given up smoking or have made up their minds to do so, I think we middle school students are the future builders of our country.We should study hard and make progress every day.We should form good habits so that we can spend our time learning things useful and valuable for our motherland and people, I think today's class meeting is very meaningful to my classmates who have a bad habit of smoking

The main disadvantages are: some of the young people are too obsessed with the network control poor, it will trap into the network.Relevant data show that young people indulge in network performance is more than 89 percent plummet.Online games will have a strong young vanity has led to some young people have an unhealthy psychological, severely hampered the normal development of young people.There are fighting games so that some young people think that real life can be like a virtual network of the world as ruled by the law of the jungle to the world today, leading toward the path of crime.Play the role of those villains, so that boys like girls change, but it's like boys girls.The trap of the second network, some people because of social discontent, the network's own desire to radiation, leading to others on the network by fraud, deceived many examples, list goes on.Many benefits, save time and effort before the provincial lesson entirely on hand-written, time-consuming and laborious, much more will have to modify.Preparation of a computer is now “semi-automatic”, and the school to teach all the prior knowledge input into the computer, after layout, modify, save, and finally print it out;the same can also copy the link.Computer is time-saving, labor-saving good helper, it gives me more time to study materials, the design of better teaching methods.32.看电视的利与弊（Advantages and disadvantages of watching TV）
Nowadays more and more people like to watch TV.So TV plays a very important part in our life.But watching TV has both advantages and disadvantages.Generally, the advantages can be listed as follows.Firstly, you can expand your knowledge by watching TV.As we all know, learning things by TV is much faster than by listening to the radio or just by reading books.For it has colorful pictures as well as wonderful music.Secondly, you may know anybody you want to know such as famous singers, super stars, scientists and so on.What’s more, you can go everywhere by traveling programs.Let’s suppose, if you like traveling very much, but you have to work on weekends or holidays, you must be very sad.And now open your TV and it’ll take you to anywhere.Every coin has two sides.The disadvantages are also obvious.For example, watching too much TV can easily become short-sighted, especially for children and students.To make matters worse, some young students are keen on watching TV so that they give up their studies gradually.Through above analysis, I think watching TV is a way of studying, it is good for us to watch TV.But when we watch TV, we should make a plan otherwise watching TV will destroy our life.33.How To Keep Fit Nothing is more valuable than health.It is the fountain of one’s future success.A healthy person can always be energetic and enjoy his life and achieve what he hopes for in his career.On the other hand, poor in health, a person can not achieve much success though he is wee-educated.Then, what should we do to maintain and enhance our health? There are many ways which help to build up our health.Firstly, we should keep a balanced diet and that is to say, we should not have too much intake of animal fat, but more vegetables and fruits.Secondly, if one wants to keep fit, he must give up the habits that damage his health.Finally, regular physical exercise is essential for a healthy mind and body.In conclusion, if everyone can stick to what is mentioned above, one can always keep fit and pursue one’s career effectively.
34.friendship is the most valuable thing in the world nobody can be alone all the time.so all of we need friends.when we are sad,friends can bring us happiness;when we are happy,friends will share the happiness with us.then the happiness become double.Having a true friend is not easy thing.some pople can' t meet a true friend forever.but if you really meet a true friend,you must cherish this relationship and keep it fresh.however,there are still a lot of bad friends,they will make us turn into bad people.so you must be careful in choosing friends.friendship is the most valuable thing in the world.we can't use money to buy it.so from now on,start taking care of your friends.and cherich the friendship

（一）Most people have had a dog or wanted one as their companion at some time in their lives.If you are thing of buying a dog, however, you should first decide what sort of companion you need and whether the dog is likely to be happy in the surroundings you can provide.Specialists’ advice is useful to help you choose the most suitable kind of dog.But in part the decision depends on common sense.Different dogs were originally developed to perform specific tasks.So, if you want a dog to protect you or your house, for example, you should choose the one that has the right size and characteristics.You must also be ready to devote a great deal of time to training the dog when it is young and give it the exercise it needs through out its life, unless you live in the countryside and can let it run freely.Dogs are demanding pets.Cats love the house and so are satisfactory with their place where it is secure, but a dog is loyal to its master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection.The best time to buy a baby dog is when it is between 6 and 8 weeks old so that it can transfer its love from its mother to its master.If baby dogs have not established a relationship with the human being until they are over three months old, their strong relationship will always be with dogs.They are likely to be shy when they are brought out into the world to become good pets.1.Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?
A.You can always get help from the specialists.B.It is common sense that is the most important when choosing a dog.C.You should decide what kind of dog you want.D.Size and characteristics of the dogs should be considered too.2.What is mentioned as a consideration in buying a dog?
A.The color of the dog.B.The price of the dog.C.Whether the dog will fit the environment.D.Whether the dog will get along with the other pets in the house.3.Why does the writer say a dog is a more demanding pet than a car?
A.It must be trained so that it won’t bite.B.It demands more food and space.C.It needs more love and care.D.It must be looked after carefully.4.Why is it advised to buy a baby dog under three months old?
A.It’s easier to buy a baby dog under three months old.B.They are less likely to be shy with human beings.C.They are less likely to run away.D.It’s esier for them to form a relationship with their masters.5.The word “affection”(Line 11)means _____.A.love
B.effect
C.tie
D.relationship 难点：
1． Be likely to do sth: 可能干某事。也可用It is likely that……
2.devote……to: to 在这里是介词，其后要接名词或相当于名词的词或词组。如：She devotes herself to teaching children.3.demanding: 需要关爱和照顾的。
答案：
1.B 考点：这是一道判断理解题，可用排除法。
解析：从文章第二、三、五句话，我们可知，A、C、D都符合原文的说法。B说的是“在挑选狗的时候，常识性的东西最重要”。而原文第四句话却说“但是，部分决定取决于常识”，并非是最要的。所以B不符合原文，是正确的答案。
2.C 考点：这是一道细节题，可用排除法。
解析：文章建议在挑选狗时，应该考虑狗的大小，性格，是否能适应主人提供的环境，而并未提到A：狗的颜色，B：狗的性格，D：是否可以与家里其他宠物融洽相处。所以D正确。
3.C 考点：这是一道理解题。
解析：从这句话：a dog is loyal to master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection.我们可知，狗比猫更需用爱护和照顾。所以，C是正确答案。
4.D 考点：这是一道理解题。
解析：本题问的是为什么建议在狗小于三个月时购买？原文说“狗在6周到8周大的时候，可以将它的感情从它母亲转到主人身上。如果狗在三个多月大时还不能与人产生感情，那么，他们的感情将永远是与狗一起了。他们很可能过于害羞而不能成为好的宠物。”所以：D这样更容易使狗与它的主人建立感情，是答案。
5.A 考点：这是一道词汇题。
解析：affection在这里是喜爱的意思。所以A是正确的答案。
（二）The young people who talk of the village as being “dead” are talking nothing but nonsense, as in their hearts they must surely know.No, the village is not dead.There is more life in it now than there ever was.But it seems that “village life” is dead.Gone for ever.It began to decline about a hundred years ago.When many girls left home to go into service in town many miles away, and men also left home in increasing numbers in search of work, and home was where work was.There are still a number of people alive today who can remember what “village life” meant in the early years of the present century.It meant finding your entertainment in the village of within walking distance of it.It meant housewives tied to the home all day and every day.It meant going to bed early to save lamp-oil and coal.Then came the First World War and the Second World War.After each war, new ideas, new attitudes, new trades and occupations were revealed to villagers.The long-established order of society was no longer taken for granted.Electricity and the motorcar were steadily operating to make “village life” and “town life” almost alike.Now with the highly developed science and technology and high-level social welfare for all, there is no point whatever in talking any longer about “village life.” It is just life, and a better life.Finally, if we have any doubts about the future, or about the many changes which we have seen in our lives, we have only to look in at the school playground any mid-morning;or see the children as they walk homeward in little groups.Obviously there children are better fed, better clothed, better educated, healthier, prettier and happier than any generation of children that ever before walked the village street.1.By saying that village is not dead, but “village life” is dead, the writer suggests that _____.A.those young people who talk of the village as being “dead” are wrong B.the two statements are against each other C.“village life” today is rather uninteresting
D.“village life” today is no longer like what it used to be
2.It was _____ that “village life” began to take a sharp turn.3 A.about a century ago B.during the two world wars C.with electricity and motorcars introduced into the village D.only recently
3.As is suggested in paragraph 2, villagers in the past _____.A.lived a simpler life than villagers today B.knew fewer people than villagers today C.found it difficult to enjoy themselves D.liked to wash themselves with cold water
4.The expression “...there is no point whatever in talking about...” in paragraph 3 means that _____.A.there is no end to the talking about...B.it is harmful to talk about...C.it is not meaningless to talk about...D.there is no reason for talking about...5.From the passage we can see that the writer’s attitude toward “village life” is ____
A.positive
B.negative
C.neutral
D.unclear 【难点】
1.nothing but...: 除了，仅仅 2.the present century: 本世纪 3.tied to the home: 被束缚在家 4.reveal: 展现，显露
5.take sth.For granted: 认为某事当然，如，We mist not take it for granted that...: 我们决不可想当然地认为 …… 6.social welfare: 社会福利 【答案】 1.D 考点：这是一道理解判断题。
解析：本文第二段对过去和现在的农村生活进行对比，由此得出现在的农村生活已经不再像过去的农村生活那样了。所以本题正确答案应该是D。而不是A：那些谈论农村已经不存在的年轻人是错误的，B：农村和农村生活相反，C：今天的农村生活很乏味。
2.C 考点：这是一道细节题。
解析：本题问的是从什么时候起，农村生活有了一个转折点。从文章第三段第四句话：“电和机动车辆在拉近农村生活和城市生活的距离方面起着决定性的作用”，可知选项C 正确。
3.A
考点：这是一道判断题。
解析：第二段最后四句话讲述的是：过去的村子里的每一个人都相互了解;不必走很远就可以娱乐;家庭主妇们每天都呆在家里;为了节省煤和灯油，人们很早就睡了。由此，我们可知，选项A是正确答案。
4.D 考点：这是一道词汇理解题
解析：point 在这里可以理解成“有道理，有理由”所以，答案应该是D。
5． C 考点：这是一道理解判断题。
解析：作者在文章中只讲农村生活的变化，并未对农村生活进行评价，所以作者的观点是中立的。因此答案是C。

A Figures indicate an ever-increasing crime rate, but it is only too easy to imagine＂It will never happen to me＂.(1)Unfortunately, statistics show that it really can happen to you and, if you live in a large city, you run twice the risk of being a victim.B Research has also been done into the way people’s behavior changes in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie.(2)It has been found that if they are sitting down at the same time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual.(3)To the trained observer they are saying I wish I were somewhere else now.C Todays’s wealthy parents perhaps realize their riches can be more of a heavy load than a happiness to their children.(4)So the first thing for them to consider is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money.(5)D Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult.If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do.It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return.(6)In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child---things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known.But a child has his pains: He is not so free to do what he wishes to do;he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.(7)E Every country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to praise or criticize others as they are similar to or different from it.(8)And unfortunately, our picture of the people and the way of life of other countries is often a distorted one.F Like the press in most other countries, American newspapers range from the “sensational”, which feature crime, sex and rumor, to the serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events.But with few exceptions American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information, for they have to compete with television.(9)As in other democratic countries American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once bravely uncovered political scandals(丑闻)or crimes,(10)for instance, the Watergate Affair.The newspapers drew the attention of the publi 7 c to the fears of the Vietnam War.G Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings-battles lost and won, kings of rulers overthrown of killed-took months and even years to travel from one country to another.The news passed by word of mouth and was never accurate.Today we can read in our newspapers of important events that occur in far away countries on the same day they happen.(11)H Actually, the world’s birth rate is falling.But so is death rate, as medical advances have made it possible for man to live longer than before.(12)Such advances have also reduced baby death rate.Unless population growth is reduced, the world population may reach 12 billion in a century.(13)Is the earth capable of providing a good life for so large a population? I The condition most helpful to spending appears to be price stability.If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, they are likely to buy.Thus, it appears that the common business policy of maintaining stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology(心理学).(14)J Then came the First World War and the Second World War.After each war, new ideas, new attitudes, new trades and occupations were revealed to villagers.(15)The long-established order of society was no longer taken for granted.Electricity and the motorcar were steadily operating to make “village life” and “town life” almost alike.Now with the highly developed science and technology and high-level social welfare for all, there is no point whatever in talking any longer about “village life.”(16)It is just life, and that a better life.英译汉答案：
１． 尽管数据显示犯罪率在不断增长，但人们还是太过自信：我压根儿就不会受害．
２． 在人们说慌的时候，通过调查他们的一些明显的不重要行为方式，来研究人们说慌时的行为变化． ３． 调查发现他们在同一时间坐着时要比平时爱在椅子上挪动．
４． 现在富裕的父母们也许意识到他们的财富对于孩子来说有相当程度的负作用． ５． 因此他们首要考虑的是确保家人在精神上与其物质生活一样地富有． ６． 孩子在以后的生活中被给予这么多而不做以任何回报是不可能的．
７． 但是小孩子也有他自己的苦恼: 不能自由地做自己想要做的事儿，而大人还总是告诉他不要做什么，甚至做错事儿了还要受批评．
８． 每个国家人们习惯于从自身出发，来赞赏与自己生活方式相近的国家，而批驳生活习惯与之不同的国家．
９． 通常，美国报纸试图使其娱乐与新闻做得一样好，因为他们不得不与电视相竞争．
１０．但是美国报纸一般还是被认可的，因为它一方面很好的为政府服务，另一方面它也不止一次地勇敢地揭露政府丑闻或犯罪．
１１．现在我们能够通过报纸读到当天发生在遥远的国家的重要事情．
１２．实事上，世界人口的出生率正在下降．而死亡率也是如此，这是因为先进的医药条件为人们能够延长寿命提供了可能．
１３．除非人口增长下降，否则一个世纪内世界人口将达到１２０亿．
１４．因此，在正确理解消费者心理的基础之上出现了维护稳定价格的商务政策． １５．每次世界大战之后，新的思想，新的看法，新的商业和职业都展现给老百姓．
１６．随着科学技术的高端发展以及面向所有社会成员的高福利政策的实施，现再谈论“农村生活”已变得毫无意义了。．

Blair, dressed casually in an open shirt, appeared emotional about the birth, the first of his four children whose birth he has been at from beginning to end.“this is the first time I’ve seen the whole thing though,” he said.“it was quite a struggle, really, for Cherie.”
The switchboard was reportedly lit up with calls from world leaders wishing them well, including a call from Hillary Colliery Clinton.Former prime minister John Major was the first public figure to get through on the phone at 7 a.m.on Saturday.The baby came after a 12-year gap from the Blairs other three children-Euan, 16, Nicky, 14, and Kathryn.He is the first to be born to a serving Buitish prime minister in over 150 years.News of the pregnancy took Cherie and the rest of the nation by surprise when it was announced last year.After decades of much older occupants at No.10 Downing Street, the Blairs’ arrival at the prime minister’s residence with their children and assorted toys in tow was hailed as a breath of fresh air.Cherie Blair, a Queens Counsel barrister, worked right up until the baby’s birth.And the often thorny issue of combining career and family was at the center of her work.On Tuesday, Mrs.Blair was at work in the High Court, challenging her husband’s government over parental leave.1.Why does the writer mean by “baby alert” IN PARAGRAPH 2?
A.Because people in Britain didn’t expect Mrs.Blair to give birth to a boy.B.Because Mrs.Blair is at too high an age to give birth to a baby.C.Because there is a baby disease spreading about Britain.D.Because people in Britain were frightened by the new born baby.2.Which of the following is not true abort the baby?
A.This baby is not the third child of Tony Blair.B.He weighed in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces.C.He was born in No.10 Downing Street.D.He is 16 years younger than his eldest brother.3.Judging from the passage, Mrs Blair ____.A.was a bit uncomfortable after the labor.B.is a weak-bodied woman.C.is a strong-minded woman.D.is a family woman.4.What does the word “thorny”(in the sentence “ And the often thorny issue of combining career and family”)mean?
A.harp B.difficult C.many D.interesting.5.Which of the following can be used as the best title for the passage?
A.An Anecdote of Mrs.Blair.B.Prime Minister’s New Baby.C.Baby Alert in Britain.D.Mrs.Blair Has a Boy.难点：
1．No.10 Downing Street: 唐宁街10号；英国首相居住的地方。2．
Gorgeous: 很棒的。
3．The switchboard : 接线总机；在这里是指世界各国的元首们都打电话祝贺布莱尔首相喜得贵子，使他的总机一直占线。

coffee.The Englishman was angry.He was just going to leave the restaurant 17

答案： 1．B 考点： 这是一个细节询问题。
解析： 我们从原文第三段和倒数第四段可知，去年布莱尔夫人怀孕的消息一传开，英国人感到非常吃惊：她45岁才生下这个小孩，这个年纪生小孩是很危险的年龄。英国人很担心他们的首相夫人能否顺利生产。因此，B最符合原义。
2． C
考点：这是一个判断题；问的是以下哪一个有关这个婴儿的说法是正确的。
解析：从前四段我们可以看出，布莱尔夫人刚生下一个男孩；这个男孩是布莱尔夫妻的第四个孩子，他重六磅，12盎司。孩子出生以后，由父母带回唐宁街十号。由此我们可以得知，这个孩子不是在唐宁街十号出生的。故C不符合原文。
3． C
考点：这是一个细节分析题；问的是布莱尔夫人是一个怎么样的人。
解析：该题的信息出现在文章最后两段。从该部分我们可以得知，布莱尔夫人是一名律师，她的孩子出生前一直在坚持工作，星期二那天，她正在高等法庭工作，对她丈夫的产假制度提出了挑战。由此我们可以看出，布莱尔夫是一位非常坚强的女性。所以，本题的答案为C。
4． B
考点：这是一个词汇题；考的是如何通过上下文判断词义。
解析：该词所在的句子出现在倒数第二段里，这句话的意思是解决好事业和家庭的关系经常是她工作的焦点。事业和家庭之间的关系对她来说是一个棘手的问题；由此我们可以得知，该词的意思是困难的，棘手 7 的。这个词的意思还可以从该词的词根判断出来。我们都知道，“thorny”的意思是“荆棘”，通过构词法我们可以知道，n + y构成了这个词的形容词形式。由此也可知道，该词的词义是“棘手的”。
5． D
考点：这是一个主旨题；考的是文章的题目。
解析：本文开头直接提到首相府邸新婴儿的出生。然后对母子的情况作了简要的报告。整篇文章都是对布莱尔夫人生小孩的报道，所以，最符合原文的题目应该是D。
６．Ｂ
get sb to do sth.意为＂让某人做．．．．．．＂．
７． C
where = in which, “where…., there are….” 指＂哪儿有．．．，就有．．．＂．
在本句中，where引导地点状语．
８． B
distinguish right from wrong 的意思是“分清是非”，是固定搭配。所以B是正确答案。A 的意思是“感觉、觉察”，C 的意思是“看到、发现”，D的意思是“观察”均不符合题意。
9． C would rather +句子（过去时）（虚拟语气）：I’d rather you didn’t tell anyone what I said.你最好别告诉任何人我所说的话。I’d rather you came with me.你还是和我一起来吧。
10.B
except 和except for 都是介词，后面接短语。而except that和except when后面接宾语从句。that在从句中只起连接作用。而when在从句中做状语。如：She knew nothing about his journey except that he was likely to be away for three months.关于他们的旅行她不清楚，只知道他大概要离开三个月。（that 在宾语从句中只起连接作用）He was a man of fine character in all points except that he was rather timid.他在各方面都很好，除了有点胆小。而本句要选择except when，因为when 在从句中做状语。
